UK Law
Get UK Law Questions Answered by Verified Experts
You say your application was refused - was this an application for a workers visa under the points based system?
Have you applied for a Spouses visa?
When you received your refusal did your solicitor say that you had a right to appeal the decision to an immigration tribunal?
Kind regards,
Right. Do you know if you are eligible for legal aid?
Firstly, you should call the Law Society tomorrow and ask for firms in your area that have a legal aid certificate for immigration matters:-
They will be able to tell you if you are eligible for legal aid and will be able to offer a more authoritative opinion based on your specific document ion of your opinion.
You have to check that you have applied for a spouses visa and not a workers visa. If you have not applied for a spouses visa then you should do.
If you have applied for a spouses visa and it has been refused then you will probably need to appeal it. You will get a fairer hearing on appeal than you would simply from the UKBA.
The issue, it seems to me, is that the UKBA are not convinced of your credibility because of you immigration history. If this is the case then you will have to argue against this suspicious on appeal and you will need an solicitor to do this best for you. THey will know what evidence to produce to counter the UKBA's reasons for refusal and possibly argue Article 8 Human RIghts Act )(right to a family and private life.. Hopefully a judge will be sympathetic and take your side.
Your position now is very unclear and you need to take specific advice on your case
If this is useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. It will be gratefully received and you will be free to ask follow up questions.
Kind regards.

October of 2009 has been one of my best mountain biking months yet. I planned on three group rides outside of my normal riding with friends - one on a trail I have ridden quite a few times, and two rides on trails I hadn't ridden before but had always wanted to ride.
Riding the familiar trail allowed me to meet new people. That led to new rides on old trails and an awesome lasagna dinner. Later in the month, riding the new trails gave me sights and sounds I'd never before experienced, along with some incredible single track and great memories.
My Rocktober, as I decided to call it (along with a bunch of others I'm sure), worked out great!
On to the pics!
The first ride was Hole In The Ground. This trail is beautiful, and we did about 15 miles. There is about 2000 ft of climbing on this trail, but it's all between 7000 and 8000 ft!
A view towards Tahoe, CA from Andesite Ridge:
This is Castle Peak:
The group I rode with. You can see my Jabberwocky in the middle of the group. They wanted to include it because "it was so cool" :cool:
Me riding on some granite on the Hole In The Ground trail:
The end of the Hole In The Ground trail has a half mile section of steep stairs. The dirt is loose and there are one or two tight switchbacks. This is at the top:
On Hole In The Ground, I made two new riding friends, which exploded in to a whole new group. This new group does mostly road riding, but there's a regular evening/night ride on a "cool" loop, in Cool, CA. The loop is called the Olmstead Loop, home of many awesome races throughout the year! This trail is 10 miles long - we rode one after-work loop and followed it with a pitcher of beer and some kick ass food at a local eatery!
Sunset over the Olmstead loop.
The second new trail I would ride is the Pioneer Trail. This trail is above Nevada City, CA, which is the start of the Amgen Tour next year. The trail parallels Hwy 20 between Nevada City and Truckee, CA. The trail is an out and back - 15 miles each way and climbs from 3500 ft to 5000 ft elevation over that distance, with a bunch of short steep ups and downs along the way, and a decent climb with grades of 15-20% for about a mile.
Beautiful fall colors outside of Harmony Ridge market above Nevada City, CA, at the start of the Pioneer trail. This place had excellent deli sandwiches and pasta salads, and an assortment of High Times products:
Our group for this ride:
The start of the ride was loose single track, that opened to double track and narrowed back down.

How To Repair And Patch Potholes In Asphalt
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Did this video help you?
Allen Mears: @mike92586. A simple solution to the asphalt patch material sticking to your tamper: spray a little cooking oil on the bottom of your tamper. This stuff worked great and was easy to use and apply. A homemade tamper does just as well - look up a few homemade solutions on the 'net to creating your own if you don't want to buy one for one occasion
Michael Korben: Yes I agree with you, but I still think it is the cleanest and easy way to fix pot holes in an economical way.
mike92586: had problems with tamping it down with tamper it kept clumping up and it would not come off, the cold patch kit at 0:49 worked a lot better and looks like a professional did it but it was not as easy to work with as this stuff.

HTML5 is the latest version of Hyper Text Markup Language. The version of this language is 5 and it is still under development. The main aim of HTML5 is to increase the latest multimedia support and to decrease the dependency on client side scripting language like JavaScript and third party plugging like Adobe Flash Player etc. HTML5 can be effectively run on low-powered devices such as smart phones, tablets etc. Several new elements like <video>, <audio>, <canvas> etc. have been introduced in HTML5.
HTML5 is being developed in joint collaboration of the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG) and World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). As the development of HTML5 are still going on so it is not yet an official standard. No web browser supports all HTML5 elements yet, but popular web browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera etc. are adding more HTML5 tags support in their latest versions.
For example, we have given below a small HTML5 code snippet for creating a simple web page:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Your first HTML5 page title</title> </head> <body> Your first HTML5 page </body> </html>

It's looking more likely this morning that Google and LG could release the Nexus 5 in additional colors, after a flurry of online activity in the past 24 hours. First came videos and pictures claiming to show the new colors in the Google Play Store, though these showed telltale signs of being little more than Photoshop jobs based on existing renders. But since then the first compelling photographic evidence has emerged, and one reliable individual in the smartphone community is saying there's some truth behind the rumors.
Firstly, Vietnamese outlet VietnamNet has today published a photo of a "sample" version of the Nexus 5 in red, adding that it'll become available along with a yellow version in late February or March. The shot shows a very bright shade of red, not unlike the color used on some Nokia Lumia phones, on the back of a Nexus 5 with black accents. While this sort of shot wouldn't be impossible to fake, it looks a lot more like what we'd expect from a red Nexus 5.
Meanwhile MoDaCo's Paul O'Brien tweets that (original) colored Nexus 5 leaks are "nowhere near representative" of the "actual products," saying that there are "surprises to come." And for sure, the red Nexus 5 photo out of Vietnam looks nothing like the earlier renders. We'll have to wait and see what lies ahead, but for now the possibility of new Nexus 5 colors landing in the next month or two seems plausible.

It is just recently introduced. I have the 2 inch but have yet to have a night conducive to a trial run. Some have posted that it is similar to a former Meade 4-element Barlow and should be quite good.
Posted 06 December 2012 - 05:26 PM
I've got the ES 2X barlow and love it! I'm waiting on a spacer to try it with my DSLR. But for visual I personally think it's fantastic! Used it last night with my ES ED80 to look at Jupiter and along with a Celestron 8-24 zoom was able to see Gannymeade's shadow transit Jupiter.

The Supreme Court announced it will review whether Congress has the power to compel nearly all Americans to purchase health insurance or face a tax penalty and whether the federal government's effort to expand state Medicaid programs amounts to illegal coercion.
In a regular order posted on its website on Nov. 14, the court announced that it would hear oral arguments on a total of four specific questions raised in federal circuit court decisions that split on the legality of the so-called individual mandate to buy insurance in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
A spokesman for the Supreme Court said that the health care reform cases were likely to be argued sometime next March. Observers have said that decisions for cases argued in the court's spring term would likely by published by June, which could thrust the case into the national run-up to the November 2012 presidential election.
The reform law compels most private citizens to buy health insurance by 2014 or face a tax penalty on their income taxes, which has emerged as the key issue in critics' nation-wide challenge of the reform law. That requirement was struck down by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta, whose ruling was appealed to the Supreme Court by the Obama administration.
The National Federation of Independent Business, meanwhile, was granted oral arguments on a finding in the same ruling that said although the mandate was unconstitutional, it can be severed, allowing the remainder of the reform law to stand. The NFIB argues the whole law should be struck down.
Finally, the Supreme Court ordered arguments on the question of whether any challenge to the individual mandate can be entertained by a court now.
The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, has ruled that the mandate is a tax, because it is included in the IRS tax code, and therefore can't be challenged in court until after 2014, when the tax penalties kick in for failing to buy insurance.
The high court also agreed to hear an appeal filed by 26 states arguing that the reform law's expansion of the Medicaid program amounted to illegal coercion by the federal government. That case was considered less likely by some legal scholars to hear an argument in the Supreme Court because no appeals court has yet sided with the coercion argument.
The questions granted are:
Petition 11-393: NFIB v. Sebelius (PDF) - "The question presented is whether the ACA must be invalidated in its entirety because it is nonseverable from the individual mandate that exceeds Congress' limited and enumerated powers under the Constitution"
Petition 11-400: Florida v. HHS (PDF) - "Does the Affordable Care Act's mandate that virtually every individual obtain health insurance exceed Congress's enumerated powers and, if so, to what extent (if any) can the mandate be severed from the remainder of the Act?"
Petition 11-398: HHS v. Florida (PDF) - "Whether Congress had the power under Article 1 of the Constitution to enact the minimum coverage provision." And, "Whether the suit brought by respondents to challenge the minimum coverage provision of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is barred by the Anti-Injunction Act?"
Petition 11-400: Florida v. HHS - "Does Congress exceed its enumerated powers and violate basic principles of federalism when it coerces States into accepting onerous conditions that it could not impose directly by threatening to withhold all federal funding under the single largest grant-in-aid program, or does the limitation on Congress's spending power that this Court recognized in South?"

a sexual act that requires 3 people. 2 guys, one chick, and 1 other unfortunate soul. The chick bends over and one guy takes her from behind, while the other puts it in her mouth and then the two guys give a high ten, giving the illusion of the Eiffel Tower. The unfortunate soul is there to take the picture. No one will believe you if you don't have the proof.

After more than 30 years of work, not only as a director but also as a producer and a writer, Tim Burton presently has six television episodes, seven short films and 22 full length films. While there is of course no accounting for taste, out of all the movies Burton has cranked out during his considerable career, these are the top five, in no particular order, that are most highly recommended.
Sleepy Hollow: Burton expands on the sinister fairytale written by Washington Irving in 1820. It's a cross between a Halloween story and a riveting supernatural mystery. Burton's old friend Johnny Depp stars as Ichabod Crane, a nervous New York City detective and self-proclaimed campaigner for the use of emerging forensic science, such as autopsies. Crane goes to the small upstate New York town of Sleepy Hollow to investigate three killings where the victims were found with their heads cut off. Crane arrives at the town and is skeptical of the explanation the locals give him of the Headless Horseman, an undead Hessian mercenary who had his head cut off during the Revolutionary war and now rides around on his black steed at night searching for his head. Crane eventually believes the tale when he sees the Headless Horseman. Crane works furiously to find a way to end the Horseman's reign of terror as he takes out one victim after another. Crane seeks the assistance of Young Masbath, whose father was killed by the Horseman, and Katrina, the lovely daughter of Baltus Van Tassel, for whom he develops feelings. The film keeps you guessing until its shocking and dramatic conclusion
Edward Scissorhands: This provocative fantasy film with a Beauty and the Beast vibe to it represents the first of a long list of illustrious works of collaboration between Burton and actor Johnny Depp. The highly original storyline in the beginning is framed as a bedtime story from a granddaughter to her grandchild. In the story, the "Inventor" creates a boy named Edward but dies before he is able to give Edward real human hands, leaving him forever unfinished. After living alone for many years in the Inventor's mansion, a saleswoman named Peg Boggs discovers Edward and brings him to her home. Although initially apprehensive, the rest of the Boggs family soon befriends Edward and cherish him as a full member of the family. The boyfriend of the Boggs' daughter, Kim, creates trouble for them when he takes advantage of Edward's child-like innocence and later accuses him of attacking Kim. Overall, the movie is a clever and sensitive fable about not judging a book by its cover.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Based on the classic Roald Dahl novel of the same title, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory delights its viewers with wonderful graphics and the light-hearted absurdity that comes with childhood. The central storyline is not unfamiliar to even young adult viewers; Charlie finds one of the coveted golden ticket which, along with four other children, grants him a tour of Willie Wonka's famous and fanciful factory which, despite the title, makes much more than just chocolate. However, a quirky yet slightly more sentimental new twist develops near the end, which includes Willie Wonka reconciling with his father, an astute and serious dentist played by Christopher Lee. Other new details are revealed, such as where Willie Wonka first met the Oompa-Loompas and scenes of the Oompa-Loompas dancing to techno music.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure: Burton's very first full length film is truly a classic. Although it was the first Pee Wee Herman movie, the character of Pee Wee Herman was not new to the big screen as actor Paul Reubens had portrayed him in The Pee Wee Herman Show. Reubens co-wrote the script and was inspired to ask Burton to be the director after he saw Burton's short film Frankenweenie. The movie is a comedy adventure film about Pee Wee's quest to recover his beloved bicycle which is stolen from a bicycle shop. Pee Wee visits a psychic who tells him his bicycle is hidden in the basement of the Almo Mission in San Antonio, Texas. His long and wacky adventure to recover his bicycle leads him to encounters with a jealous boyfriend, a biker gang, an advertisement sign and seemingly every prop, actor, and staff member at Warner Bros. Studio. The movie was a huge success and set the stage for the rest of Burton's career.
Beetlejuice: After the success of his first film, Burton received a number of scripts to choose from for his next movie. Among them, Beetlejuice stood out to Burton because of its creativity and originality. The star-studded cast included Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton. The story is about a young couple, Barbara and Adam Maitland, who decide to spend their vacation decorating their beautiful country home. On their way, they crash their car into a river. They drag themselves out and return home, but begin to suspect they are in fact dead since they can't see their reflections in the mirror. They also discover a Handbook for the Recently Deceased. They are informed by their afterlife case worker, Juno, that they must stay in the house for 125 years. This becomes a very daunting prospect after an obnoxious family with terrible interior design taste moves into the house. After haunting the house in an unsuccessful attempt to scare the new inhabitants away, the Maitlands enlist the help of a ghost named Betelgeuse, and eventually get more than they bargained for. The success of this film and Pee Wee's Big Adventure prompted Warner Bros. to hire Burton to direct the 1989 "Batman" film.

On the Dark Side of History
I was sitting in a chair, hooded, with my hands cuffed behind my back. He came up to me. His voice was deep and rough. He spoke to me in Egyptian and English. He said, Listen, you dont know who I am, but I am the one who has your life in his hands. Every single person in this building has his life in my hands. I just make the decision.
I said, I hope your decision is that you make me die straight away.
No, I dont want you to die now, I want you to die slowly. He went on, I cant stay with you; my time is too valuable to stay here. You only have me to save you. Im your savior. You have to tell me everything if you want to be saved. What do you say?
I have nothing to tell you.
You think I cant destroy you just like that? He clapped his hands together.
I dont know. I was feeling confused. Everything was unreal.
If God came down and tried to take you by the hand, I would not let him. You are under my control. Let me show you something that will convince you.
The guard then guided me out of the room and through an area where I could see, from below the blindfold, the trunks of palm trees. We then went through another door back inside, and descended some steps. We entered a room. They sat me down.
Now you are going to tell me that you planned a terrorist attack, he continued.
I havent planned any attacks.
I give you my word that you will be a rich man if you tell me you have been planning attacks. Dont you trust me? he asked.
I dont trust anyone, I replied.
Immediately he slapped me hard across the face and knocked off the blindfold: I clearly saw his face. It was Suleiman.
Thats it. Thats it. I dont want to see this man again until he cooperates and tells me hes been planning a terrorist attack! he yelled at the others in the room, then stormed out.
The guard came to me, upset that I hadnt cooperated.
I said to him, You have to let me go soon; its nearly 48 hours.
He looked at me, surprised, and asked, How long do you think youve been here?
A day, I replied.
Man, youve been here for more than a week.
They then took me to another room, where they tortured me relentlessly, stripping me naked and applying electric shocks everywhere on my body. The next thing I remember was seeing the general again. He came into a room with a man from Turkistan; he was a big man but was stooped over, because his hands were chained to the shackles of his feet, preventing him from standing upright.
This guy is no use to us anymore. This is what is going to happen to you. Weve had him for one hour, and this is what happens.
Suddenly, a guy they called Hanish, which means snake, came at the poor man from behind and gave him a terrible karate kick that sent him crashing across the room. A guard went over to shake him, but he didnt respond. Turning to the general, the guard said, Basha, I think hes dead.
Throw him away then. Let the dogs have him.
They dragged the dead man out.
What do you think of that? asked the general, staring into my face.
At least he can now rest, I replied.
Then they brought another man in. This man, I think, was from Europe his exclamations of pain didnt sound like those of someone from the Middle East. He was in a terrible state. The guard came in with a machine and started to wire the guy up to it. They told the poor man that they were going to give him a full electric shock, measuring ten on the scale. Before they even turned the machine on, the man started to gasp and then slumped in the chair. I think he died of a heart attack.
The general said that there was one more person I had to see. This person will make you see that we can keep you here for as long as we want, all your life, if we choose.
There was a window in the room, covered by a curtain. The general drew back the curtain, and I saw the top half of a very sick, thin man. He was sitting on a chair on the other side of the glass, facing me.
You know this guy? the general asked.
No, I replied.
Thats strange hes your friend from Australia.
I looked again and was horrified to see that it was Mohammed Abbas, a man I had known in Australia who worked for Telstra. He had traveled to Egypt in 1999 and had never been seen again.
He is going to be your neighbor for the rest of your life.
It was then that I knew I was in Egypt, without a doubt. They then took Abbas away and closed the curtain.
Shortly after 9/11, Mamdouh Habib, an Australian citizen, was pulled off a bus in Pakistan and handed over to the United States. Treated as a suspected terrorist, Habib was transferred to Egypt where he was tortured for five months. In the above excerpt, My Story: The Tale of a Terrorist Who Wasnt, Habib sees the face of his torturer and discovers that it is Omar Suleiman, then chief of Egypts spy agency. Suleiman has since become the Western-backed, de facto ruler of Egypt. Continuing to protest his innocence, Habib was eventually transferred to Guantanamo Bay for three years of interrogation. He was released without charge on January 11, 2005.

So you've got your fingers crossed, hoping your favorite NFL team will strike it rich in this week's draft and find at least a handful of capable players who can step right in and make an immediate impact.
And of course, that means making the perfect pick in the first round on a guy who will help your team win an extra few games in 2014.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's not going to happen.
Not if you believe Bill Polian, that is.
NFL draft: Top 10 prospects at each position
A former longtime NFL general manager and player-personnel man for the Panthers, Bills and Colts, Polian is one of the more informed and trusted sources regarding draft analytics. He has five decades of experience evaluating talent.
But when it comes to high expectations regarding NFL rookies, Polian warns you shouldn't have any expectations, period.
"I don't think it's changed at all," Polian, now an analyst for ESPN, said on a conference call earlier this week. "First- and second-rounders, you'd like them to come in and contribute. Let me underline the word contribute, please. They will not make an impact. They will not.
Draft central: Bob McManaman's final mock draft
"Rookies tend not to make an impact by the very definition of the fact that they're rookies; they have to learn how to play professional football."
For every first-year wunderkind who makes a monumental impact from the moment he steps on the field — from Randy Moss and Adrian Peterson to J.J. Watt and Andrew Luck — Polian can name 100 who didn't.
After all, rookies usually don't make their mark right away in the NBA or Major League Baseball, Polian says. What makes anyone think rookies in the NFL should be any different?
2014 NFL draft player comparisons:
"Somehow in the NFL we assume that these guys are going to come in and make a difference between winning and losing and they rarely, rarely do," he said.
"You ask your first- and second-round guys to become contributors. Third-round players, that's hit or miss because the reason they're in the third round is because they have enough red flags in various different areas that may cause them to miss. So you hope that you're right for the right reasons in the third round and then a guy becomes a contributor."
And what if you find a nugget or two in the fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh rounds who turns out to be a serviceable contributor that first year?
"Then you give your scouting staff a bonus because they've done a heck of a job. Literally," Polian said. "And we did that in Indianapolis, by the way."
Cardinals coach Bruce Arians was fully prepared to make Jonathan Cooper his starting guard until Cooper, the Cardinals' first-round pick a year ago, suffered a fractured leg in the preseason. Arians also relied heavily on safety Tyrann Mathieu, a third-round pick, and running back Andre Ellington, a sixth-round pick.
Ranking biggest NFL draft busts:
They ended up becoming stars right away.
Polian, though, suggests it's premature to judge any draft pick — or draft class, for that matter — until at least four years down the road.
"And secondly," he added, "you say to yourself, 'Did did we get three or four players — including undrafted collegiate free agents because they're included in the mix — did we get three or four players who contributed to winning?' If you did that, if you get four players in each draft that contributed to winning, four years out, you've had a very successful draft."
One of Polian's ESPN colleagues, fellow analyst and former NFL coach Jon Gruden, disagrees to a point. Because of the salary cap and new rookie wage scale, which now eliminates the mega millions that used to be doled out to top draft picks, first-year players have more value than ever before.
"You like to have your draft choices make your football team, number one," Gruden said. "When I used to work for the 49ers years ago, before the salary-cap era, I heard if you had too many rookies starting for you, you weren't a very good team.
"… Because of the modern era and the salary cap, you want as many rookies to be on the field because they're the most affordable. Most importantly, let's get good players that are on the front line at every position or we won't be here for very long. … It's in the eyes of the beholder, but you better get good players out of this draft that make your team because they're affordable and they're the life's blood of the organization."
Each NFL franchise's top undrafted player:
Unlike Polian, Cardinals General Manager Steve Keim believes there are plenty of rookies out there who can help his team win more games right away.
"This draft is deep enough where I really do think you are going to get third-round players in the fourth and fifth rounds, guys that can come in and be immediate impacts for us," Keim said.
"I've always had the mindset that you shoot to hit on three guys who are at least impact players and starter types and last year I really feel like we did that with Tyrann and Andre and Coop. ... And then you try to have two role players, two guys who can at least play a significant role offensively, defensively or special teams."
Keep your fingers crossed if you believe Keim. If you trust Polian, don't waste your time waiting on any rookies to save the day.

In a city with so many people, tragedies are inevitable. And every time you think you've heard about the worst thing that happenstance could do to someone, something worse occurs.
That's one way to think about the death of Yingyi Li-Dikov, the Flushing woman killed last Sunday by a falling tree in Kissena Park. She was six months pregnant at the time, and her husband and family are of course devastated. It's a tragic case of simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
But it also may be a case of what happens when the city neglects its basic responsibilities. Li-Dikov is not the only person to have been killed by a tree the city should have known was dangerous. Mayor Bloomberg is intent on planting a million new trees around the city, but he should be more intent on maintaining the ones we already have. We hope the next mayor will better fund the Parks Department's forestry service in a real effort to avoid further tragedies like the one that ended the life of Yingyi Li-Dikov for no damn reason at all.

Concerns vitamin K oxide combats
Vitamin K oxide treats a variety of skin concerns, including:
How vitamin K oxide works
Auriderm products are unique in that they don't just mask darkness and unwanted pigmentation — they go directly to the root of the issue.
When the delicate capillaries close to the skin's surface leak, blood can pool up and combine with oxygen, at which point it turns color. This commonly occurs after an injury, causing a bruise. This same process can occur underneath the eyes to form under-eye circles, or in fragile veins of the legs, arms or face — known as spider veins.
Discoloration is also a common side effect of surgical procedures, such as liposuction, Botox, rhinoplasty or dermal fillers. Surgical procedures often result in tissue trauma, which then causes bruising and swelling.
Vitamin K oxide is a powerful ingredient that can help strengthen fragile capillaries and prevent them from leaking. By assisting the body's natural healing process, Auriderm products can clear unsightly discolorations at a much faster rate and prevent them from reoccurring.
Top 5 products
Skin discoloration doesn't have to be a frequent concern any longer. Even if your condition is chronic or genetic, the Auriderm product line can help your body heal itself.

The company store gives us Veterans' Day.
Mrs S' company store doesn't.
Looks like I have the day free... let's see... let's see... how about an all day bike ride?
After Saturday's abandonment, it seemed the thing to do.
So, I plotted out a 40 mile loop, thought I did 50 but -in the end- it was 40.06.
And with 2900' of climbing, top boot!
That first spike at the left (1) is Devil's Slide.
I've ridden to the top many times but never over the other side.
Frankly, it's scary but after a peptalk by Pete (taxi777) in the NorCal Forum, I figured it couldn't be any worse than what I'm doing already. The ride up is no joy, either.
From the top of the 8.7% blip is this view of Linda Mar Beach
Right after you pass the beach, here's the start of the 1.25 mile climb
So, I get to the top wondering if I have the nerve to continue on to Half Moon Bay.
If I go forward, no matter how I come back, I've got some climbing to do. Over and over again.
Here's the view looking NNW from Montara Beach.
I've driven a few times to Montara Beach as a jumping off point for rides farther south.
I drive because I'm afraid to ride to Montara on my bike.
Well, was afraid. Obviously, I have gone forward.
And on to Half Moon Bay.
This is an active farming community.
This is no simulation, this is a real bridle and feed store
And right next door:
Usually I stop here on my bike and pick up a couple of CDs to bring home
Not today. Just had a mind for the ride and nothing else.
I said it was a good day for it. That's not just for the ride.
It's Veterans' Day... a day we honor our dead.
I know it's too commemorate our fallen troops but why not go up to Skylawn and visit my mom?
I haven't visited in a long while and, really, her buying me a Schwinn Varsity when I was 18 is what led me to where I am today.
How fitting to take the bike to go see her.
The only problem is HMB sits at about 75' and Skylawn is at 1000'.
Yep, I have to climb that bump in the middle from the 11.3% mark to past the 12.4% mark.
That hump is Highway 92.
You need more guts than brains to ride this road.
It's narrow, there's little or no shoulder and it's busy. All the time.
The cars -and Trucks. BIG ones- go by awfully close.
It was worth it.
This is looking down from Skylawn to where I started from and all the way through the valley.
This is the easy part the steep part starts just to the left, out of view, and continues up.
More later. But what a satisfying day. I set out to do a nice long, unfettered ride.
Did 40 miles, 2900' of climbing and did it with a clock time of 4 hours and a time-in-motion of 3.5 hours.
Maybe my best ever and a real test. The second half coming home, was no picnic. And I LOVED it

LUCKNOW: Talk to the thousands who throng Modi rallies in Uttar Pradesh, chances are you will run into many who proudly proclaim themselves as 'Baba Ramdev's chelas', rather than call themselves BJP workers.
In Varanasi two weeks ago or in Amethi on Monday — two of the biggest rallies of Modi in this campaign —many vehicles that brought in supporters were seen sporting Ramdev's 'Yog Deeksha Evam Rashtra Nirman' posters. In Amethi on Monday, several hundred if not thousands of Ramdev supporters attended the rally.

AICC General Secretary Ajay Maken said that social media has not yet percolated to the common men and its power to change discourse during elections is limited.
Speaking at the Idea Exchange programme of the Indian Express, Maken however, said that social and electronic media will make mega election rallies obsolete.
Maken, who had resigned recently from the Union Cabinet to shoulder the party's responsibility, also clarified that the Food Security Bill is not a game-changer as it is being touted but a promise UPA had made in its manifesto which it strives to fulfill.
He also expressed disappointment with the mismatch in performance and perception of the UPA II government, which he wished to correct.
Maken, who was once a chief minister hopeful in Delhi, praised Sheila Dikshit's government. Sheila Dikshit has performed well in Delhi and I am confident that Congress will return to power in Delhi for the fourth time, he said.
On the question of Congress party's Prime Ministerial candidate for 2014 Lok Sabha elections, he said there is still an year left for the elections.

Its about halfway through, when there are still plenty of tanks left, that i start getting the rage. Both good and bad players alike complain that I'm not scouting enough, or that I shouldve gone for arty already. Most time, these actions would get me killed at this point in the game. I usually come out either on top or close to the top by the end of the game. Only times I do badly is when my team is so good I don't get the opportunity (but we win anyway, which is all that matters).
So my question to the GOOD light tank players is: am I doing something wrong, or are these players just not familiar with the playstyle of a light tank?
Here are my replays if you couldnt find them before:

Fluids venting from the seafloor are rich in chemicals that sustain deep-sea life in the absence of light and photosynthesis. Similar chemosynthetic life forms could have existed early in Earth's history and could exist on other planetary bodies. (NOAA Okeanos Explorer Program, Mid-Cayman Rise Expedition 2011)
In the 2009 expedition to the Mid-Cayman Spreading Center, scientists used Nereus, a vehicle that can dive to 11,000 meters (nearly 7 miles). (Advanced Imaging and Visualization Laboratory, WHOI)
In 2009, scientists searched for the first time for hydrothermal vents and deep-sea life surrounding them in the Mid-Cayman Spreading Center, in the middle of the Cayman Trough, south of Cuba. At the boundaries of two of Earth's tectonic plates, the spreading center is 5,000 to 6,500 meters (3 to 4 miles) deep and spreading apart at an ultraslow rate (less than 2.5 centimeters or 1 inch per year). (Jack Cook, WHOI)
During their 2009 search, scientists discovered two new vent sites. One was named after the undersea explorer Jacques Piccard and the other after Karen Von Damm, an early pioneer studying the chemistry of fluids from hydrothermal vents. (Courtesy of NOAA Okeanos Explorer Program, Mid-Cayman Rise Expedition 2011)
Karen Von Damm, shown here with the human occupied vehicle Alvin, was an MIT/WHOI Joint Program graduate student in the early 1980s and a mentor to this article's author, Jill McDermott. Von Damm died in 2008. (Dan Fornari, WHOI)

text: The immediate focus, in the wake of a new jihadist group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, demonstrating its might by capturing and torching much of Iraq's second-largest city, Mosul, would be on Iraqi and American efforts to contain the threat. The possibility of Iran cooperating in this effort with its old foes gives it added drama as well. But what should not escape attention is the crying need to address the larger question of democratising the region's politics. Absence of democracy and suppression of civil rights in much of the region lends a dangerous degree of popular acceptance, even approbation, to militant Islam that shows it can challenge the oppressive powers that be.

To protect the financial system from the prospect of a national run on money market funds by panicked investors, the Obama administration has proposed the once unthinkable prospect of a floating net asset value (NAV) for money market funds.
The $1 peg, or lack thereof, became an issue last September when the NAV of Reserve Management Company's flagship product, the Reserve Primary Fund, value fell below $1 per share. Its decline was soon followed by other reserve money market offerings.
Don't Break the Buck
Breaking the buck is the ultimate taboo for an investment sold to investors as a stable place to park cash. The prospect of widespread failure in money market funds prompted the United States government to launch an insurance program to guarantee the value of money market assets. That short-term, taxpayer-funded fix isn't something the Obama administration wants to see remain in place forever.
A floating NAV would also get the government out of the business of subsidizing the failing investment offerings sold by legions of financial services firms.
Keep in mind that investors are still struggling to get their money back from the reserve funds, which are incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, where they are legally permitted to make partial distributions in response to investors looking to cash out.
Downstream Impact
For investors, a floating NAV means that the value of money market shares, like the value of other mutual fund shares, would rise and fall on a daily basis. Anybody using a money market account as safe place to store cash would need to rethink that plan.
Likewise, any individual investor or business using money market funds for check-writing purposes would want to put their money somewhere safer.
The financial services industry has responded to this proposal with extreme anxiety. A move away from the stable $1 NAV would likely be the kiss of death for their money market businesses.
The industry favors an alternative proposal whereby money market providers would need to have access to private cash to maintain the $1 peg and keep investors whole. (What happens when banks or brokerages go belly up? Check out Bank Failure: Will Your Assets Be Protected?)
The Bottom Line
For the moment, industry players and investors alike are watching and waiting to see how the final legislation will shape up. If the NAV floats, the financial services industry loses a product and investors need to find a new place to stash their cash.
If the new rules require private funding to prop up failing funds (many of which are only maintaining the buck peg today because the firms that sell them have reduced their fees), it will be business as usual in the money market world. Either way, the taxpayers will have one less Wall Street mess on their hands. (U.S. bailouts date all the way back to 1792. Check out Top 6 U.S. Government Financial Bailouts.)

Earlier this week iOS users noticed that a number of their apps were suddenly broken and unplayable. Over 70 apps including popular titles like Angry Birds were broken after a new update from Apple was deployed. It turns out the real culprit was Apple's DRM scheme, FairPlay. The short story is that, after the update was deployed, the DRM failed to recognize the game or app in question as "valid" and even uninstalling and reinstalling the app wouldn't fix the problem. While developers and Apple are claiming that the problem has been resolved, users who installed the update during the July 3 – 5 period are still claiming to have problems.
Apple also claims that the problem was not widespread, but having 70 apps become inexplicably broken should probably not be considered "isolated incidents."
For more information on FairPlay, check out this Wikipedia entry.

Hello All,
I am a new member looking to get help on an issue with my 15 year old Burley Bongo. I am the original owner, but my wife and I haven't used the bike all that much over the years. I am in the process of freshening it up with the intention of really finding out if tandemming is for us. If so we'll replace this bike with something newer, but first I need to repair a few items. The rear BB is a press in bearing arrangement using I believe 6903 sealed bearings. These need to be removed due to wear and for painting. Is there a secret to getting them out after removing the circlips? I have a really big hammer, but I think that is last on the list of techniques. Any help would be appreciated.

|View to the left...Place St Germain des Pres
Greetings from Paris! I've decided to hijack my own blog for the next couple of months and use it as a way to keep in touch with friend and family during our sabbatical. First stop, Paris, where we have rented a delightful little apartment on the left bank. As much as I love the woodsy views of our home in North Carolina, it's such a treat to have this beautiful city right on the other side of these charming, floor to ceiling casement windows.
|View to the right...Rue Bonaparte
Anna and I left home on leap day... a fitting date to start a journey, wouldn't you say? We arrived at Charles de Gaulle airport, stiff legged and foggy brained, as are all who endure the ridiculously small seats of coach class for 8 hours. We were met at our apartment on Rue Bonaparte by the rental agent, a lovely young american from Maryland, who gave us the keys and a couple of instructions and was off. Too tired to search for a great lunch spot, we popped in the first cafe we saw and ended up with a somewhat forgettable meal and went straight back for a nap.
Now I hate jet lag as much as anyone and possibly more than most. But getting my daughter up after a 2 hour snooze was near to impossible. So, while Anna was comatose on the couch, I ran to the Monoprix to purchase our basic survival items...water, fruit, yogurt, coffee (for me) and chocolate (for her).
It was the promise of pizza that got Anna back on her feet that first evening and we found a wonderful little restaurant Pizzaria Positano (15 rue Cannettes, 6eme). The pizzas came straight out of the wood fired oven and had that wonderful crunchy yet chewy crust that we love.

Evansville used a goal in the final minute of regulation to send the game to extra time and eventually got a 3-2 win over Butler in the second overtime, dropping the Bulldogs' record to 4-4-2 on the season.
"I think we just need to learn how to win games," Head Coach Kelly Findley said. "We did everything we needed to do, we just didn't close it out."
Butler grabbed a lead after 20 minutes of play when Boris Gatzky set up a Connor Burt header for a goal from just six yards out. The goal was Burt's third of the year and the Bulldogs had a 1-0 lead.
Fifteen minutes later, Gatzky again set up a goal off of a set piece when he found David Giarratana who kicked it into Frank Patano for the score. It was Patano's team-leading sixth goal for Butler and was also a team high mark for Gatzky who has five assists on the year.
"We scored off of a couple of set pieces which is not normal for our team," Findley said. "I thought it would be a shootout, it wasn't going to end 1-0 or 0-0. I knew it would be a multiple goal game and in the end it was."
Butler suffered a defensive loss when starting goalie Fabian Knopfler left the game shortly after the Bulldogs' second goal with an injury. Nick Hegeman came in to play the rest of the game for Butler and picked up two saves but allowed all three Evansville goals.
"It does (effect the team) when you lose the goalie to injury, it's a mental thing," Findley said. "I thought Nick did well. He came into the game and worked hard."
Evansville used a goal 10 minutes into the second half to get on the board and then scored to tie the game with just 55 seconds left to play in regulation.
"We started to play not to lose," Findley said. "In the first half we played to win the game and in the second we played not to lose."
The Purple Aces got the game-winner in the second overtime period when they scored just three minutes into the extra frame.Mike Luttrull scored his second goal of the game as he got a cross from Cory Elenio and headed the ball past Hegeman.
The Bulldogs look to rebound when they start Horizon League play on Friday as they take on UW-Milwaukee at Kuntz Stadium at 7 p.m.

I'm thinking seriously of making Clojure my new hacking language since I love Lisp but have some problems with CL and Scheme. I've never worked in the Java environment before and my lisp experience is limited to working through "SICP" and "The Little Schemer."
What do I need to know? Are there any good resources on "The Clojure way?" Any resources on Clojure style? I've found Mark Volkmann's excellent page, but the books I've looked through seem a little spare.
Also, what do I need to know about Java? I'd rather not learn Java just to learn Clojure, but I imagine I'll have to know at least a little. Also, what is the workflow like? My experience is limited to dynamic languages, so I have no idea what I'd have to do to distribute an application without source on the JVM.
I've googled this obviously, but there's a large amount of information and not very much "clojure specific" stuff.
I guess I'm looking for some sensible suggestions on the kind of literature I should read in some sort of logical sequence.
