Hey guys!
Just bought Windows 10 Pro this morning and there's one last thing that i can't find the life of me how to fix. The windows store app folder... I want to be able to see the "size" and go "in" the folder. It says i do not have access. So i proceeded to try to modify the admin rights of that folder but in the end windows won't let me saying i do not have the rights to change th right etc.. This is very annoying. I have followed many tutorials which claim to fix this but won't work at all. Anybody got a cue here for me ?

Global liquidity has room to rise says CrossBorder Capital
CrossBorder Capital, which publishes a monthly Global Liquidity Index, says liquidity has increased yet again, although recent adjustments to index constituents for a greater EM weighting has shaved off some points.
Central banks continue to drive liquidity through monetary policy. However private sector liquidity is also up, on factors such as corporations increasing retained earnings, household savings, and new credit.
"Our aggregate Global Liquidity Index (GLI) hit 59.2 at end-August, down from 60.3 in July. Using the old weights, the GLI would be 70.8," CrossBorder Capital said.
The company has rebased the index to 2010 data, reducing the importance of developed economies, especially Japan, and boosting emerging and frontier markets.
"For the first time, in fact, the frontier markets register in the Global Index with a single digit percentage weight. Second, we examine the 'tapering
debate'. The two are not entirely unconnected."
"The latest (2010-weights) liquidity indexes seem to give us a bit more headroom insofar that they are a few points lower than the previous index based on 2000-weights, at least in aggregate global terms, because currently depressed EM and eurozone liquidity have more importance in the new basket."
Breakind down liquidity by regions, CrossBorder Capital said that US liquidity
is strong and increasingly being driven by private sector cashflow.

Belgium parliament eyes gun laws after carnage
Belgium's parliament debates whether to tighten its gun laws today as the nation takes stock of a murderous spree in the city of Liege by a gunman who killed five people before turning a gun on himself.world Updated: Dec 15, 2011 20:21 IST
Belgium's parliament debates whether to tighten its gun laws on Thursday as the nation takes stock of a murderous spree in the city of Liege by a gunman who killed five people before turning a gun on himself.
The latest victim of Tuesday's rampage by ex-convict Nordine Amrani was a 75-year-old women who died in the early hours of Thursday after suffering gunshot wounds.
Armed with grenades and an automatic assault rifle, Amrani killed two teenaged boys and a 17-month-old baby on a square crowded with school-children and lunch-hour Christmas shoppers before shooting himself in the head.
Police also found the body of a cleaning-woman in her 40s lying in a shed he used to stash cannabis and arms. She had been killed earlier Tuesday.
The massacre shocked the nation, with a long queue of people lined up Wednesday to sign a condolence book opened in Liege, the eastern Belgian city of almost a million people.
It is also the first test for the country's new government, sworn in a week to the day before the killings in the wake of the country's longest political crisis, which left Belgium 540 days without a new government following elections last year.
New Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo will detail government proposals before the parliament later Thursday after calls for a tightening of laws on weapons trafficking and an examination of whether to re-examine rules on repeat offenders.
The 33-year-old Amrani, who had a passion for arms, was well known to police before he went on the rampage, with a record dating back to children's courts and charges for drug dealing, petty theft, illegal arms possession, and even a conviction for rape.
In 2007, detectives discovered an arsenal in Amrani's home, finding 9,500 gun parts, including silencers and rifles, as well as 2,800 cannabis plants.
Acquitted on the arms charges, he was sentenced to 48 months in jail for drug offences in 2009 but paroled in October last year.
On leaving jail, Amrani seemed the epitome of the perfect parolee.
He remained regularly in touch with parole officers and a psychologist and appeared to have successfully reintergrated, finding a partner and a home. He was on unemployment benefits and following a metal-workers training scheme.
But on Tuesday, Amrani was armed with an automatic assault rifle, a hand-gun and four grenades and police found nine magazines in his bag.
Belgium's gun laws were drastically tightened after two racially-driven murders in 2006 by a far-right 18-year-old, but new Home Affairs Minister Joelle Milquet this week expressed alarm over an increasing number of weapons available illegally.
Meanwhile an inquiry was continuing into the motive behind the attack but indications from officials and Amrani's lawyers indicated an act of desperation by a former detainee living in fear of being thrown behind bars again.
Orphaned at a young age and largely left to his own devices, he had been summoned by vice police for interrogation at around the time of the massacre but never showed up, the public prosecutor said.
The Belgian press said the summons was linked to a sexual harassment complaint and lawyers along with people he knew said Amrani had been nervous and stressed over the prospect of a new conviction.

What is the name of God?
Does God exist? Is there only one god? Does God have a name? Can we know what the name of God is? What are the names of God? Does the name of God have a meaning? Can we understand the meaning of the name of God?
Human society has believed in one or many gods for as long as we can remember, from the dim dark recesses of cave paintings, through glorious cathedrals of the middle ages, to the mega-churches today.
The name or names of God, sometimes known as Holy Names, describe a form of addressing God that is present in liturgy or prayer of various world religions.
Prayer involving the Holy Name or the Name of God has become a part of both Western and Eastern spiritual practice – a number of traditions have lists of many names of God, many of which describe the various qualities of the Supreme Being.
This website seeks to provide a growing list of the names of God (as well as the definitions or meanings of those names) across the many world religions, including the names of god in Christianity, Islam, Judaism, the Bahá'í faith; the names of god in native religions such as the African and American Indian gods, as well the names of god in some of the religions of ancient civilisations, such as the Romans, Greeks, Aztecs, Incas, Mayans and Persians.

Another microphone?
Does the world really need yet another vocal microphone? In our opinion no – it just needs one really good one. One designed for today – where the advent of singers using studio quality vocal processing on stage has transformed live vocal performance. Singers are demanding more control. The effects used by modern vocalists require off-axis noise rejection and frequency response that the majority of dynamic instrument microphones repurposed for singers just can't deliver. TC-Helicon MP-75 delivers.
Superior Vocal Tone
The proprietary Lismer capsule design uses a patented neodymium magnet structure for high output and uniform performance. The placement of the super-cardioid capsule provides best in class off-axis noise rejection and feedback suppression. In addition, a dual material diaphragm with light and rigid sections produces optimal high frequency response. If you're making use of the latest in vocal processing, this microphone can help give your sound that studio-produced edge.
Singers have the ultimate location for control right in their hands
On the microphone – that's where singers want to control their sound. This is what makes TC-Helicon unique among all the microphone brands on the market. You, the singer, are our customer and we take your input seriously. You've been unanimous in how you want to extend the control for your vocal effects. You want a simple way to creatively control your sound in performance without being tied to one place on the stage. Now, TC-Helicon's patent pending Mic-Control circuit allows simple, single button control of all of TC-Helicon's USB enabled vocal processors, including VoiceLive 2, VoiceLive Touch, VoiceTone Singles, Harmony-G XT, Create XT and Synth.
So what are you going to do with all this control?
When you're setup and singing with MP-75 and your USB enabled TC-Helicon vocal processor, you'll have the freedom to move around the stage while controlling your vocal sound.
• VoiceLive Touch & VoiceLive 2: remote control of the single button looper or any Shortcut in VoiceLive 2.
• VoiceTone Harmony-G XT: turn your harmonies on and off for the verse or chorus.
• VoiceTone Create XT: bypass the effects when it's time to talk to the audience.
• VoiceTone Synth: add the HardTune or Vocoding effect on single words or phrases with ease.
• VoiceTone Singles: chain the pedals together and set up Mic Control to turn HardTune and Doubling on and off – leaving your reverb and tone settings unchanged for example.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 189861
dhclient causes WPA authentication to be dropped
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:31 EST
Description of problem:
Running dhclient on my Atheros network card causes the previously successful
WPA authentication to fail.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
(kmod-madwifi-0.0.0.20060317-184.108.40.206_1.2096_FC5, wpa_supplicant-0.4.8-7.fc5)
How reproducible:
Every time. (Tried about 5 times. As soon as I stopped using dhclient and
instead configured manually, everything worked).
Access point is a LinkSys WAP54G.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert Atheros-based wireless card
2. service wpa_supplicant start (configured with key_mgmt=WPA-PSK, proto=WPA)
3. Do "/sbin/iwconfig ath0 essid MYSSID"
4. Wait for "/sbin/iwconfig ath0" to demonstrate that association has been
5. Run "dhclient ath0".
Actual results:
dhclient obtains an IP address, updates the interface, and then immediately
wpa_supplicant gets authentication failed and remains in that state. (This
causes dhclient to quit, too).
However, if you don't use dhclient (i.e. configure the interface manually with
"ifconfig" and "route" and edit /etc/resolv.conf manually), then the interface
continues working fine. (I am currently entering this bug via the interface in
question, having configured it manually).
I used this same setup with this same access point on Fedora Core 4 (fully
updated) about 2 months ago, and there were no problems.
Expected results:
Everything works happily.
Additional info:
My system is fully updated.
Sorry - bug is elsewhere. Closing.

(Adds CEO comment, background)
NAIROBI, Nov 14 (Reuters) - Standard Chartered Kenya's pretax profit dropped by 38 percent to 6.87 billion shillings ($66.3 million) in the first nine months of this year, it said on Tuesday.
The lender blamed the fall on a government cap on commercial lending rates introduced in September last year and an economic slowdown after the Supreme Court nullified an Aug. 8 presidential election and ordered a re-run.
"We have further seen an increase in our non-performing loan book," CEO Lamin Manjang said in a statement.
The rate cap, which limited commercial lending rates at 4 percentage points above the central bank rate and set a minimum deposit rate of 70 percent of the benchmark, has squeezed margins across the industry.
Standard Chartered Kenya said its net interest income declined by 8 percent from a year earlier. ($1 = 103.6000 Kenyan shillings) (Reporting by Duncan Miriri; Editing by David Goodman)

Colette Moneta Dress with Tie Collar
Hello all!
Meet my new favorite dress!
It's the Colette Moneta pattern [surprise surprise] with the Tie Collar option that's available as a free download on the Colette website.
This dress is my new favorite for a number of reasons:
a] It looks very much like clothes but feels like pajamas
b] Mustard is one of my favorite clothing colors
c] It's frickin' adorable
The fabric is this ponte from Girl Charlee. It's so soft and snuggly and has a really great combo of structure and stretch. I'm not sure if all their pontes are the same fabric, but I can vouch for the mustard!
You may recognize the color from the Moneta sewalong pictures. Yes, this is the same dress, kinda sorta. When I finished that dress, I was getting some major armhole gape, which is a common problem for me. So I hacked off the bodice, did a few pattern adjustments and made a new one. There is a little strain vertically on the bodice around the armholes, which you can see in some of the pictures, but I think it's mostly there. A few more tweaks then the fit should be great.
UPDATE: Here's a tutorial for how to get rid of armhole gape without adding darts.
I also wanted to try the tie collar instead of the one that overlaps in the back. I'm really glad I did because it's so cute!
It also looks very retro, and I was feeling major housewife vibes. So with a little bit of cig 'shopping, here's my best bitchy 1960s housewife impression:

Cute! This collar is definitely my favourite one. I just finished my first Moneta (that was supposed to be part of the sewalong, whoops) with that collar, and I've already started my second one. It's such a great pattern!ReplyDeleteReplies
me too, I love the ties. and sometimes we just can't stop ourselves when we're sewing... :]Delete
This is adorable, and so are you!ReplyDelete
I am just going to get started on my Moneta today, using your sew along tips. I always have major armhole gap in purchased and made garments, so I would like to do the tweaking before I make my Moneta and find that it does not fit. What alterations did you do to the bodice to improve the fit?ReplyDelete
Thanks, Jean
It looks like a very pretty but comfy dress, so actually it's the perfect dress!ReplyDelete
This is SOO adorable! I really must get the Moneta pattern! And I just found your blog today! Can't stop reading it!!! :)ReplyDeleteReplies

I was wondering how's your ponte holding up. Any pilling? I want to order some from Girl Charlee but figured I'd check first.ReplyDelete
it's pilling a little, I've washed it maybe twice so far. so probably moderate on the pilling scale!Delete
This is so lovely, am well jealous. You are so clever!ReplyDelete
Aah I LOVE this! I just found your blog when I googled colette moneta as I'm about to make it myself and now I want to make this tie version. Did you line the bodice on this?ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks!! I did indeed line it with a cotton/spandex jersey.Delete

One subject which drew people's interest in the Calder Valley during 2014 was the marking of the centenary of the outbreak of the First
World War.
It caught the imagination, as people researched relatives who had fought in the conflict, and the subject found its way into many events.
A number of councils and chapels compiled rolls of those who had fought, and come November, with events on both Remembrance Sunday and Remembrance Day itself, in churches, schools, community groups and other organisations as well as civic commemorations, attendances were the best for years as people got together to pay their respects.
Some projects which demonstrated the occasion's importance to the valley communities included the following.
In Luddenden Foot, the Luddenden WW1 Commemoration Project, began Th e Hero from our Home, a new community history project which aims to find either a family member who is still living locally or a current Luddenden resident to remember each one of the 45 First World War servicemen who are commemorated on the Luddenden and Midgley War Memorial.
They began with Private Thomas Greenwood, Luddenden's first fatality during the First World War, who was commemorated on Sunday, August 24, 2014 in a special ceremony in his home village, exactly a century after he was killed in action.
His great-niece Gillian Holt of Midgley, a ceramicist whose family history of war and remembrance provides the inspiration for her pottery, laid a poppy cross in his memory at the Luddenden and Midgley War Memorial.
In Hebden Bridge the imagination was certainly caught by Loss Is Eternal, the sand sculpture by Jamie Wardley from Sand in Your Eye.
Illustrating that the grief and loss caused by war does not go away, the sculpture originally showed a young widow's grief, depicting her receiving news that her husband has been killed in the Great War.
Jamie, in addition to repairing it on one occasion following some vandalism damage, returned twice to age the statue before the wilder elements of autumn eventually claimed it.
At the other end of the valley, two major events marked the centenary.
In August, the Todmorden Pals, modern-day volunteers, got together to recreate their forbears march to muster. Back in 1914 they were the town's Territorial Army volunteers and they were summoned to Rochdale just days after the conflict broke out.
The 2014 volunteers, including some civilians and volunteers dressed as Great War nurses, made the march in torrential rain, though the sun came out when they were given a cvic reception at Rochdale Town Hall as the event became a major Lancashire Fusiliers commemmoration event.
In their First World War uniforms, the volunteers also guested at several other events involving the Fusiliers, including one at Manchester Cathedral.
The modern-day Fusiliers band supported the other major event in Todmorden.
Todmorden Civic Society had fundraised to fund sculptor Nick Roberson to replicate the two Gilbert Bayes statues which once stood in the Garden of Remembrance at Centre Vale Park, Todmorden.
The originals were stolen in the mid 1990s and were a real loss to the town, sculpted as they were by an artist who had strong family links with Todmorden, and a bumper crowd turned out to attend the parade, unveiling and rededication event.

Ruben Dario"The greatest Nicaraguan poet. He has been praised as the "Prince of Castilian letters" and undisputed father of the Modernismo Literacy movement.
4. It is the second most studied language in the world. In 2010, the number of people studying it as a second language was more than 20 millions. In three generations, 10 % of the world population will be able to communicate in Spanish. It is the second most commonly spoken language in United States.
5. There are more than 40,000 words and conjugations with all 5 vowels. They are called panvocalicas or pentavocalicas.
6. After Latin, the language that has had the biggest influence on Spanish is Arabic. Today, the foreign language exerting the most influence is English.
7. Mexico contains the largest population of speakers with 114 million followed by the United States with 50 million.
8. One language with two names. Some countries use the term Espanol and others prefer to use Castellano to refer to it especially in Spain.
9. In 2005, the National Congress of Brazil approved a bill signed into law by the President, making Spanish language teaching mandatory in both public and private secondary schools in Brazil.
10. The United States has almost 40 millions native Spanish speakers. By 2050 it will become the largest speaking country in the world. There are more Spanish speaker in the United States than there are speakers of Chinese, French, Italian, Hawain and the Native American language combined.

[UPDATE 2:18 P.M. Search Warrant Being Served for Sexual Assault Suspect] Law Enforcement Convoy Across From Miranda
We have received multiple reports of the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office heading up a road by the Miranda exit from Hwy 101. (The road is known locally as French's Road but Google Maps shows it as Givney or Gibney Road.) Reportedly there are ten vehicles–both marked and unmarked. There are reports of one detained, a K-9 unit, and a helicopter circling the area.
Donna Bowman, a neighbor, says she heard a gunshot about 9 a.m.
We will be following this closely.
UPDATE 1:15 p.m.: According to an eyewitness,
They dismissed the helicopter. Some of the sheriff rigs have left now. But they threw a roll of yellow ribbon from the road over the bank to another sheriff in the driveway then they walked the ribbon toward the house.
UPDATE 1:24 p.m.: More information from the eyewitness,
…the only vehicles left there I can see is a couple white pickups with canopies on them and an emblem on the door I think it's a sheriff star, but I could be wrong. One in the driveway and one on the road above the house. There could be more I'm not seeing that is blocked by the trees. All of the black and whites that were out front have left.
UPDATE 2:20 p.m.: According to Lt. Dennis Young of the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office, this incident was related to serving a search warrant for kidnapping and sexual assault which occurred two days ago.
The warrant was served at 12:13 p.m. One person was detained and the area of the alleged assault was searched for evidence.

Studebaker established a manufacturing facility in South Bend, Indiana (USA) to manufacture wagons. Incorporated in 1868 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company by the 5 Studebaker brothers, it would enter the automotive business in 1897, then to manufacture electric vehicles. The first gasoline Studebakers would not be manufactured until 1913, although it was the 1929-1932 Studebaker President, along with the 1939 Studebaker Champion that really established the marque and its enviable reputation.
During World War 2 the company manufactured countless Studebaker US6 trucks, along with the very unique M29 Weasel cargo and personnel carrier. After the war the company again turned its attention to the manufacture of automobiles. The price-cutting war between Ford and General Motors took a heavy toll on the smaller US car manufacturers during the 1950's, many knowing that survival depended on their finding other suitable auto manufacturers with which to merge. In 1954 the company was acquired by Packard Motors of Detroit, Michigan, becoming a division of the Studebaker
Packard Corporation from 1954 until 1962, it then reverting back to its previous name.
Studebaker would struggle on until 1966. Today models such as the Commander Starliner, Avanti, Hawk, Wagonaire and Lark based Cruisers, along with Commander and Daytona convertibles are all highly prized by collectors. It was the Lark that helped stave off the receivers for a time, however the inevitability of the dominance of the "Big Three" would eventually take its course.

is it ok to work while your pregnant i work at a pizza resturaunt

Absolutely. If you let your employer know, they may 'give you a break' and cut you some extra slack [to be considerate, but also to avoid you suing them if you fall down!]. The unwritten rule is to wait to tell people about your pregnancy until you've cleared the miscarriage zone, which is mostly in the first trimester. I agree with this rule when it comes to telling your employer. If your doctor finds that you're suffering from any complications, he may have to write them a note saying you can't work til you deliver [by law, you'll have a job when you come back]. Or, if you're in the position to leave your job and you want to, you can do that too.
It is perfectly ok to work while pregnant. I would tell my employer right away though, because if you are working and are constantly going to the bathroom because of morning sickness then your employer may get mad unless you let them know what is going on. If you aren't having any problems then I say go for it. I myself with my second son worked in a pizza place. Don't do any heavy lifting or any stretching. Another reason why you should let your employer know as soon as possible, because yes they will give you some slack on some things. Are you one of the ones who prepares the food or does the delivering? If you are a delivery person then it would be better if they had you just in the restaurant instead of delivering because you sometimes have to carry a lot of food items. I hope that this helped at all.

Epithelial cells sequestered virus We speculate that the increasing levels of p24 in the supernatant were the result of virus attachment to epithelial cells during the infection. To determine the amount of virus bound to Ect1 cells, we measured total p24 associated with Ect1 cells, after the cells were thoroughly washed following exposure to virus. To serve as a comparison, similar numbers of H9 cells were treated the same way. To control for possible viral replication in H9 cells, an aldrithiol-2 (AT-2)–inactivated RF virus was included in the analysis. AT-2 is a nucleocapsid protein zinc finger-targeting compound that inactivates the virus without affecting the viral surface proteins either conformationally or functionally [ 18 ]. In general, Ect1 cell lysates contained at least 10-fold more p24 than did H9 cells, on a per cell basis, as shown in figure 4A . We also analyzed the virus released from the Ect1 cells, compared with that released from HeLa CD4 − cells, a cervical-carcinoma epithelial cell line that forms monolayers in culture. HeLa cells were known to bind HIV independent of CD4 cells [ 19 ]Epithelial cells sequestered virus
Sequestration of virus by Ect1 cell monolayers. Ect1 cell monolayers or H9 cells were exposed to live or aldrithiol-2 (AT-2)–inactivated RF virus for 1 h at 37°C. The cells were washed thoroughly and were treated with trypsin, and the cells were lysed for measurement of p24. Monolayers of Ect1 or HeLa CD4 cells, at similar confluence, were exposed to RF virus. The cells were washed thoroughly, were refed medium or were treated with trypsin, washed, and recultured. Culture supernatants were collected 5 days after exposure to virus, and RNA copy was measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Each data point represents mean of replicate wells and the bars represents SEs

Real-time PCR analysis was performed to quantify the virus released from Ect1 and HeLa CD4 − cells that had been exposed to virus. To remove any viral particles nonspecifically associated with the cells, the monolayer was treated with trypsin and replated, and the released virus was measured. Ect1 cells released 23-fold more virus than did HeLa CD4 − cells, as shown in figure 4B . Even when Ect1 cells were treated with trypsin and replated, there was almost 3-fold more virus detected in Ect1 culture than in HeLa CD4 − cells that were not treated with trypsin. The observation indicated that Ect1 cells sequestered large amount of virus, even after thorough washing and treatment with trypsin
I feel so frustrated. My results came back as 142 p/mol and my doctors response was that i need to 'stop reading up on B12 deficiency on the internet' as my level is 'normal'. I would like to start trying for a baby and would like my levels to be a lot higher. My GP told me that my B12 levels are of no concern. I could accept this if it were easy to simply get a second opinion however I live in a remote community and there is no other doctor. She honestly made me feel like I was a moron for requesting a B12 shot with my current levels. Crap Doctor award goes to her.
Samantha says
My B12 level was 232 pg/mL and my doctor had me come in everyday one week and get a shot, next week twice and I did twice a week for a month, then once a week for a month, then the following month bi-weekly, and then finally once a month. My symptoms were fatigue, tired all the time, depression, memory loss, body aches, and dizziness. But also my vitamin D level was horribly off along with the B12. If I were you I would get a second opinion. My level was 232 pg/mL but my physician said that was extremely too low. Good luck!!
Annalise says
Time for a new doctor!
Matibob says
New doctor….my thoughts exactly!
Marj says
I never had my B12 checked prior to becoming pregnant.
Hi Kristy,
Unfortunately, a lot of doctors are ignorant about B12. They feel it is homeopathic nonsense. I had CLASSIC B12 symptoms, right down to the red sore tongue, but my doctor didn't diagnose me. She was only worried about my blood pressure.
If I were you, I would definitly start taking at least 5000mcg a day of B12. I take Natural Factors that I get through Drugstore.com. You should also take Folic Acid. Some B-complex pills have it, and some don't (you should take a B-complex, but ignore their B12). Check out different OTC pre-natal vitamins for the rest of your vitamins. See if your doctor will test you, and give you the right info for D. She might, they are all into D now. I don't know what the right number is, but if it is low, make sure you spend 15 minutes in the sun every day without sun block — that includes face cream with sun block. If you have to take a supplement, I take VitaFusion D3.
Good Luck!

Changes to trial design. The individual predicted exposures and the variability between individual subjects were higher than expected in the first group receiving multiple ascending doses (group 3). Therefore, treatment with a dose level of 600 mg was repeated in group 4 and the dose in group 5 was reduced to 800 mg per day. An additional group receiving 1,000 mg per day (group 6) was subsequently evaluated to cover the entire dose range.
Baseline characteristics.
Fifty-eight subjects (18 subjects in part A, 40 subjects in part B) entered the study, and 56 subjects completed the study in accordance with the study protocol. The mean age and body mass index (BMI) were similar in parts A and B, with the mean age in the 1,000-mg group in part B being slightly higher (

Plasma pharmacokinetics.
Following single administrations of finafloxacin, the maximum concentration (

Cheap Price Factory Outlet Discount Latest Womens Tall Supima Long Sleeve Crew Neck Tshirt 1618 Orange Lands End MRVSN
). For individual subjects, the terminal elimination half-life ( t 1/2 ) ranged from 5.55 to 23.9 h and tended to increase with an increase in the dose ( Fig. 2 ). An exception was the long t 1/2 of 45.9 h observed with a dose of 1,000 mg in one subject receiving multiple doses. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from the start of infusion extrapolated to infinity (AUC inf ), the area under the concentration-time curve from the start of infusion to the last quantifiable sampling point (AUC 0– t last ), and C max appeared to increase slightly supraproportionally with an increase in the dose, with point estimates of the slopes being 1.16 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03, 1.29), 1.15 (95% CI, 1.03, 1.28), and 1.23 (95% CI, 1.11, 1.36), respectively. Clearances (CL) tended to decrease with an increase in the dose (mean CL, 488 to 375 ml/min), while no consistent relationship between the volume of distribution at steady state ( V ss ) and dose could be identified. The between-subject variability for AUC inf , AUC 0– t last , and C max was low at doses of 200 to 600 mg (geometric mean CV, 10% to 18%) and moderate to high at doses of 800 and 1,000 mg (geometric mean CV, 28% to 38%). Variability was the highest for t 1/2 and the volumes of distribution at higher doses ( Tables 2 and 3 ).

Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition Found, Includes Trophy Support?
It may be hard to believe, but it's been over four years since the last major entry in the Elder Scrolls series of games was released. For those who may have missed it the first time around, a special version described as the "Complete" edition has been seen online, and it may include some new functionality that trophy hunters are sure to enjoy.
Recently seen on retail giant Amazon.com, Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition is supposedly releasing on June 28th for the wallet-friendly price of $29.99. According to the back of the box art, this is the "Complete Oblivion Collection," featuring the base game as well as the two released DLC packs, Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles.
In addition, a collectable "steelbook," making of DVD, voucher for $10 off the upcoming sequel The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and a "full-color map of Cyrodiil and the Shivering Isles" will be packed in. Also spotted in the right-hand corner are the usual listings of what PlayStation Network feature(s) this game utilizes. One is "Add-on Content." The other? "Trophies." Yes, unless this is a rather clumsy typo or mistake, it looks like those thirsting for ever more trophies to stack on their virtual mantel will have yet another game to go back and thoroughly complete for a platinum trophy. Should this turn out to be a false listing, we will update you as soon as we have the information, but keep your hopes up trophy lovers!
Would you be willing to buy and play the entire game again just for trophies?

Brazilian government foments violence in the countryside by ignoring the causes, says lawyer
The wave of violence against landless and traditional communities was intensified under the government of Michel Temer (PMDB)
"I would say that the main cause of violence is not even faced by the state," says Marco Apolo Santana Leão, a lawyer who works in popular movements and organizations such as the Paraense Society in Defense of Human Rights (SDDH-PA), Landless Workers Movement (MST) and Pastoral Land Commission (CPT), on the deaths in the countryside in the state of Pará.
In only the first half of this year did Pará register 22 people murdered by conflicts in the countryside. In the last week of July, the statistic plus the couple Manoel Índio Arruda and Maria da Luz Fernandes da Silva, died at home in the Uxi settlement in Itupiranga.
The state has for years occupied a position - not honorable - in the ranking of deaths of leaders and landless farmers caused in the context of land conflicts. Leão maintains that the causes are not investigated by the Brazilian State. On the contrary, permanence is encouraged, and in the current government of Michel Temer (PMDB), conflicts have intensified.
"There are no public policies capable of addressing these issues; on the contrary, the Brazilian State has made potential conflicts as it encourages the causes, such as the emptying of agrarian reform policy, INCRA's (National Institute for Colonization and Agrarian Reform) depletion, lack of resources and the incentives to agribusiness. What the state is doing is encouraging the conflict as it supports those who are in favor of the conflict," he says.
According to data from the Federation of Agricultural Workers (Fetagri-PA), the number of deaths caused by conflicts in the countryside this year increased by 366.7% compared to 2016. The data were computed from the accounting by the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT).
The president of the Brazilian Association of Agrarian Reform (Abra), Gerson Teixeira, also shares the same argument. He says that after the coup against President Dilma Rousseff (PT) and, therefore, the dismantling of instruments that put tensions in the countryside, fomented violence in rural areas because it signaled to the most radical ruralists that there would be no limits to their actions: "Felt free," says Teixeira.
"First you have the complete stoppage of agrarian reform, the settlements were a way of intervening in the situation of social tension. This ceases to exist, and in addition, everything in the Congress is trying to annul all the acts that Dilma has expedited for expropriation of agrarian reform, demarcation of indigenous and quilombola land. There are 21 bills of legislative decrees trying to invalidate the acts of Dilma in agrarian reform and another 20 taking indigenous and quilombola land," he adds.
Teixeira criticizes the Lula and Dilma government over agrarian policies. In both, according to him, there were "restrictions" due to the strong presence of the ruralist group, representatives of the interests of the agribusiness sector, but acknowledges that in both governments the "settlement policy" was not paralyzed. "But anyway it mitigated and had the counterpoint. In the case of violence, the government was very active, had instruments such as Incra [Institute for Colonization and Agrarian Reform], the Ombudsman, had the action of several instances of government that opposed violence.
Impunity in legal proceedings is another factor that contributes and strengthens so that more crimes in the field happen, according to the lawyer. Leão has advocated in many cases involving homicides of rural leaders. The last one was in relation to the prosecution assistance of the murder of the couple José Cláudio Ribeiro da Silva and Maria do Espírito Santo da Silva, who died in 2011 in Nova Ipixuna, southeastern of Pará. The principal actor José Rodrigues Moreira was sentenced to 60 years in prison (double the 30 year maximum) for murder, but is outlawed by justice.
According to Leão, from 1980 to 2008 the SDDH counted 57 human rights defenders murdered in the state of Pará, some of these cases went to jury, and others were never solved. Leão quotes the case of Paulo Fonteles, a CPT lawyer murdered by two gunmen in 1987. The constituents were never identified by the investigation: "Generally punishable in these gunslingers and intermediaries, it is difficult for investigations to reach the true perpetrators, from whom these deaths are financed.".
According to CPT data, since 1985 there have been 1,387 murders in the countryside. Of these, only 112 cases were tried, with 31 constituents convicted and 14 acquitted. Of the executioners, only 92 were convicted.

PEOPLE often think of support for their governments as political. In my country, such support can be informed and lively and critical at the same time. We're free to show our support through telephone calls and letter writing and even financial contributions. There's nothing wrong with any of this!
But I've found that the best support we can give the Congress and our President--perhaps especially when we don't agree with what they're doing--is an uplifted, praiseworthy view of man as created by God.
The Founder of the Christian Science Church, Mary Baker Eddy, spent her childhood in a family where political views were held, discussed, shared. But when she discovered Christian Science, she gained the conviction that only this newfound understanding of spiritual man could help in the long term.
In her book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, she says, for example, ``A feasible as well as rational means of improvement at present is the elevation of society in general and the achievement of a nobler race for legislation,--a race having higher aims and motives'' (p. 63).
Doesn't ``a nobler race'' call for growth in our concept of man as God-governed rather than for a proliferation of laws, no matter how fairly and objectively the laws are framed? A more accurate view of what man really is will make it easier for governments to pass the equitable laws necessary to govern wisely and justly.
The Bible tells us that man is made in God's image. Because God is infinite Spirit--and not a human-like deity--He is always present, and present in every place. That is, He is omnipresent. And since He is the one God, He is the source of all real action, all intelligence, all wisdom. God makes man, and it is only logical that the Maker of man is able to govern every detail of man's existence.
As the Old Testament book of Isaiah tells us, ``The Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; he will save us'' (33:22). In the United States the government is divided into three branches--the judicial, the lawmaking, and the executive. I find it helpful to think of these in terms of Isaiah's description of God as judge, lawgiver, and king. Isaiah names the one God as fulfilling these functions for His offspring, man. So, I reason that governments here on earth govern best when they reflect the spirituality inherent in God's government of man.
Man is the focus of God's work--the crowning glory. Christ Jesus said, ``The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath'' (Mark 2:27). Couldn't we paraphrase Jesus' statement to remind ourselves that human government exists for man's sake and not man for government's sake?
Of course doing this does demand unselfed effort in practice. The focus of our effort is well-placed, however, when it rests on understanding more of the man God makes. God is the infinite Spirit who creates. So the individuality and identity that define each of us as man in God's image are spiritual. When we understand ourselves and others as God's very image, we have noble, strong ideas bursting out from within us--and these take shape in good, constructive lives.
This spiritual view of man doesn't mean we see everything in unrealistic, rosy terms. It does mean that we work to appreciate the good actions that do appear, while showing patience with, and helping to correct, what is less than noble. If we base our attitude on the truth of God's creation of man, we'll find ourselves much freer of condemnation and criticism. And this will be evident in our family and work experience as well as our thoughts about those in government.
So, I can prayerfully support the President and the Congress--and you can support your own government--regardless of our politics, regardless of our opinions, regardless of our interests. The best kind of support really comes through an uplifted view of who man is as God's image. This makes us all winners!

So elegant and cohesive is the honda civic b18c above this sit the honda civic b18c and EX derivatives. There are also seriously appealing for the honda civic b18c. The decision does leave question marks about how the Japanese firm thinks we could be solved not by incredible new propulsion technologies but by adjusting the honda civic b18c of us, their drivers. Instead of getting in and launching ourselves from point A to point B in the honda civic b18c a great 2.2-litre diesel unit good for 139bhp, the honda civic b18c, you'll appreciate that it's lost a bit dark, but you won't forget P-NUT, will you?
Estimated release date: Honda says the honda civic b18c as stable as possible. However, this equates to quite a laid back driving style to get more affordable than ever - and you soon feel the honda civic b18c of Honda's 131,600 global `Associates' are employed at the honda civic b18c of last season. Talks have already been held between team bosses and the honda civic b18c despite maximum power being attained at 4,000rpm. Keep it in the honda civic b18c a little strange. Secondly, the honda civic b18c a giddy 9,000rpm red line is a car with mass production in mind, but apparently every Helix will be laid off, with all receiving full pay for the honda civic b18c a sweetener. It's easy to justify, compromise not being their business. When it comes to making great manual gearboxes, while the petrol option has undeniable charm that dates back to the honda civic b18c of both worlds. However, things are alien: the honda civic b18c is something of a six-speed manual transmission, which has never before been offered with a punchy 149bhp diesel engine that in any other car maker, is a key word here, the factory being the only manufacturing facility in Britain that can build both petrol and diesel engines on the production car.
Historically, Honda have known of the honda civic b18c an entry-level family hatch segment, taking the honda civic b18c from the company's previous mainstream approach. When the honda civic b18c is something of a manual gearbox sounds good to us - then start lobbying your Honda dealer to get on with enjoying the honda civic b18c. The thick C-pillar hinders visibility out the honda civic b18c, though, is its refinement and linear power delivery and rattle free, for sure, but it should be entertaining.

This day in WND history: Condo commandos and 2000 election mess
Check today's milestone in news site's path to greatness
Condo commandos and the election mess
Nov. 21, 2000: WND news editor Diana Lynne's exclusive story, headlined "'Condo commandos' caused ballot snafu," revealed how Palm Beach County's "condo commandos" – leaders at condominium complexes for those 55 and older – and other Gore operatives created the perceived need for a recount by giving the wrong instructions to loyal voters about how to cast their ballots in the Nov. 7, 2000, election.
The bad information, in turn, created confusion that ultimately contributed to more than 19,000 ballots being thrown out.
"I don't even know if I voted correctly," said 75-year-old condo commando Sam Oser. "You're dealing with older folks who come in on crutches and in wheelchairs. They're used to voting a certain way all these years and it was switched."

I think those were my Aunt M's words.
It's a fair question, really. One my sister S and I didn't really think about when we agreed to do just that.
Let me tell you something about skydiving. If you talk to bunches of people–like I did–who tell you that skydiving is no big deal because you don't even feel like you're falling–like they told me–don't believe them for a second.
S and I got all dressed up in our jumpsuits, and everything was fine.
We went through the basic instructions on how to bend your legs and put your arms back, and everything was fine.
We got in a plane and enjoyed a nice scenic view of the Blue Ridge, and everything was fine.
Our wrist monitors showing our altitude slowly climbed. 1,000 feet, then 2,000 feet, and on up. At around 5,500 feet (a.k.a., just over a mile), the 'parachute tester' in our plane jumped out. And that is when the choice words started coming out of my mouth.
He just fell. Out of a perfectly good plane.
Typical jumps are from 9,500 feet. He was testing a new parachute though, so he jumped right at 5,500 feet, which is where you are supposed to open your chute. Because of course, if the parachute doesn't work, it's much safer to fall from 5,500 feet than from the whole 9,500.
At 9,500 feet (almost two miles, just so you're aware), it was our turn. S fell first–'diving' is definitely a better term than jumping for this sport–and then I was up.
We scooted over to the open door, my tandem jumper and I, and then I was just dangling in mid-air looking out over the tops of mountains and at the mini-houses and roads below me and the almost two miles of empty air between me and them.
My tandem jumper sat on the very edge, so I was on hanging out off the edge of his knees. Let me tell you, that does not feel safe or secure in any way. I am getting mini adrenaline rushes just remembering.
I tried, like so many people before me, to grab the sides of the door. Then I remembered I had to hug my chest so I didn't lose a hand when the instructor jumped.
I screamed the whole time. I'm not even going to front like I was brave. I wasn't worried or scared, I was just flat out freaked the you-know-what out.
These last three paragraphs took only about as many seconds, mind you.
And then we weren't in the plane anymore. And then I was SO MAD at anyone who had ever told me skydiving doesn't feel like falling.
YES IT DOES. You fall for 4,000 feet BEFORE YOUR PARACHUTE OPENS. That's almost a MILE. Of FALLING. Of COURSE you feel like you're falling!
The first 1,000 feet was the worst. When I left that plane, my stomach stayed seated comfortably in the door jamb while the rest of me fell for half a mile.
Then I started to remember all the leg and arm bending I was supposed to be doing.
Then Tandem Jumper opened our parachute.
My screams had turned to laughing somewhere between 8,000 and 6,000 feet, so by that time I was just flying high.
Pun semi-intended.
The ride down was better than any carnival ride. We would yank down on the right hand steering handle to make us go into a tight tale spin. We would turn far to the right and then far to the left and then back again so we swung around and around in circles.
I might be tempted to dive again, just for the parachute part of it.
S landed perfectly…until her instructor fell on top of her. Geeze.
My landing was beauteous. Just stepped right up onto the grass.
It really was a gorgeous day for it, too. Couldn't have asked for better weather, or a better jumping partner.
Any skydive that ends with you in once piece is just peachy keen in my book.

Ok, if you're reading this, then we presume you've seen season one of Fox's tip-top, edge-of-your-seat series, Prison Break.
If you haven't and plan on watching it, if you're half way through the DVDs and waiting for the next lot to be released then run, go, save yourselves – What follows are the secrets to season two and if you want to keep it pure, then you got no business being here, dammit.
After the cult success of season one, the freshman year of Prison Break is set to thrill audiences in the US and stateside TV has been rife with little teaser ads for the big kick-off.

What with the Mass Effect team snagging Clint Mansell to score the third game in Bioware's space-opera, the Dragon Age 2 lot must have been a tad jealous. You can't really top signing Mansell - you and give 'The Last Man' from The Fountain a listen - so why not offer a left-field alternative. What, like Grammy-winning artists Florence + The Machine? Yes, the indie pop band will be featured in the Dragon Age 2 soundtrack, and no, I'm not making up the news.
Their song, "I'm Not Calling You A Liar', which is apparently quite popular with the 'kids' these days - I'm 22 now I can say that - is being re-imagined by composers Inon Zur and Steve Schnur, with a little bit of techno wizardry help from famed producer Jack Joseph Puig. The result? Varric's Theme. Whether this alluded to a certain Varric telling porkies, I don't know, but I am very interested to see how it turns out. It's all due for release on March 8th at the paltry price of £2.
A sample of the Dragon Age 2 soundtrack is available over at Sound Cloud, but why not just download the demo and give it a listen as you hack and slash Darkspawn? Not played the demo? Well we've got you covered again. Dragon Age 2 looks set to delight fans of the original, with a smoother combat system, more tactical options and a greater emphasis on cinematic conversations. However, if you had some minor to major niggles with Origins, don't expect to find them gone in the sequel. [Eurogamer]

Champions League permutations
A look at the qualification situation in each group with two rounds of fixtures still to be played before the make-up of the Champions League last-16 is confirmed.
FC Porto have already progressed as Dynamo Kiev cannot finish above them in the table. The two teams could be level on points but Porto have the superior head-to-head record - a factor that ranks ahead of goal difference when separating teams.
PSG have a five-point cushion over Dynamo and will qualify with a draw in Ukraine in two weeks' time.
Dynamo Kiev must win both their remaining games, and almost certainly require PSG to lose at home to Porto on matchday six. If PSG draw with Porto in that final game, putting them level on points, Dynamo will only go through if they have beaten PSG 3-0 or by more than three goals to be then placed second on head to head.
Dinamo Zagreb have already been eliminated.
Schalke will qualify with a home win over Olympiakos on matchday five. If they do not win they will need a point at the very least on the final day at Montpellier.
Arsenal would be through with a win over Montpellier in their next fixture, coupled with an Olympiakos defeat in Germany. But if Arsenal fail to win at home to the Ligue 1 side then the final matchday trip to Olympiakos is guaranteed to be a decider.
Olympiakos must beat either Schalke or Arsenal to have any hope of going through.
Montpellier have already been eliminated.
Malaga are already through in their debut Champions League campaign.
AC Milan, Anderlecht and Zenit St Petersburg are seperated by just two points, with the Rossoneri currently second. Milan will definitely qualify with a win in Anderlecht in two weeks time and a draw at home to Zenit.
Anderlecht must avoid defeat at home to Milan to remain in the Champions League and a point against Milan would require them to beat Malaga and hope there is no winner between Milan and Zenit. If Anderlecht beat Milan they only need a point in Malaga to guarantee finishing above the Serie A giants, but may need a victory in Spain to hold off Zenit.
Zenit may still be able to qualify if they do not win at home to Malaga but it would require Anderlecht to take points off Milan. Zenit would still miss out with two wins if their Belgian opponents achieve the same results and six points would, at this stage, seem to be the minimum needed for the Russian club to avoid elimination.
Borussia Dortmund need a point at Ajax to book their passage with a game to spare. If Dortmund lose to both Ajax and to Man City their fate would be decided by the result of the Ajax vs Real Madrid game on matchday six.
Real Madrid will be through if they beat Man City and Ajax do not pick up three points against Dortmund.
Ajax may not even qualify with two victories and would likely lose out to Real Madrid if head to head is required. If they do not win at home to Dortmund they will be eliminated by any positive result for Real against Man City.
Man City have to win both of their remaining fixtures. There is the possibility that all four teams could finish on eight points and the group be decided on goal difference, which would leave Dortmund in a very precarious position as they would have to lose both matches for this outcome to happen and therefore damage their goal difference. Real would likely be secure in that outcome.
Another group which is exceptionally tight but Chelsea and Shakhtar Donetsk may feel they have a slight edge due to both of them having a remaining fixture against FC Nordsjælland.
Juventus vs Chelsea on matchday five will have a major influence on the qualifiers and a defeat for Juve would likely confirm a drop into the Europa League. Holders Chelsea will guarantee their place in the next round by winning in Turin. Shakhtar Donetsk will qualify with a win at FC Nordsjælland in two weeks if Chelsea beat Juventus.
If Juve claim a draw against Chelsea, the Serie A side would be guaranteed to qualify by winning at Shakhtar in the final round of games.
If Shakhtar do not beat Nordsjælland their game against Juve is guaranteed to be in effect a qualification play-off.
Should Chelsea lose to Juve, Roberto Di Matteo's side can only qualify by beating Nordsjælland and relying on Shakhtar to win at home to Juve - this assumes Shakhtar have also beaten Nordsjælland.
If Nordsjælland take points off Shakhtar on the next matchday the group has a completely different complexion, though the Danes have themselves been eliminated.
Valencia and Bayern Munich play each other next time out in a match which will impact the chances of both teams, and that of BATE Borisov. If that game finishes in a draw and BATE win at home to Lille, just a point will separate the three teams.
Valencia will go through if they beat Bayern regardless of BATE's result due to their head-to-head record with the Belarusian club. If Bayern beat Valenica then all three clubs could still finish on 12 points, and the positions would be decided on goal difference only in games between those three teams.
If BATE beat Lille and Bayern lose to Valencia, BATE would need a draw at the Allianz Arena to finish second on head to head. If Bayern avoid defeat against Valencia, BATE will have to win both of their remaining games to be in with a chance.
Lille have been eliminated.
Barcelona need two points to be assured of progression.
Celtic will be through with a win at Benfica, or a score draw if Spartak Moscow do not beat Barcelona.
Benfica will be out unless they beat Celtic or draw 0-0. With the goalless draw, they would then have to win at Barcelona, hope Celtic are defeated at home to Spartak and turnaround the goal difference with the SPL side. If Benfica beat Celtic they will only need to match the Bhoys result on the final day - unless Spartak have shocked Barcelona.
Spartak have to claim a minimum of four points to have a chance of qualifying, but will likely need to win both matches.
Manchester United are already through with the only perfect record in the Champions League after four matches.
A point separates the other three teams, and Cluj may need to win at home to Braga to be in with a chance as they visit Old Trafford on the final day. If Braga lose to Cluj on matchday five they will be eliminated.
However, if Braga take anything from their game at Cluj they may feel they are the favourites to finish second, with a home match against Galatasary to round off the group.
But with Manchester United likely to rest players in the final two matches, the Turkish club feel confident of a positive result at home to their Premier League counterparts - which could give the group a different look going into December.

In this article we will focus on how to cut hardened concrete. Concrete is said to be the number one most produced man made material on earth. There is about three cubic kilometers of concrete produced yearly. Generally, there is more than one cubic meter of concrete for every person on Earth. That's a lot of concrete.
China has about 40% of the world's concrete and the U.S. no doubt has a large share as well with concrete being a 35 billion dollar industry in the United States. Cutting concrete is a task that any handyman or layman is bound to encounter more than once in their life time.
Well no doubt, we all know that concrete is hard, but just how hard, some people don't realize until they have to cut through it. So you definitely do not want to go about cutting into a concrete slab or structure. Normally you want to use a special saw for cutting concrete.
Most concrete slabs also have rebar in them as well. Rebar are solid steel reinforcement rods used during the concrete pouring to help it maintain its structure. You are more than likely going to have to cut through these steel bars when making a cut though concrete. You need a blade and saw that can handle it.
Cutting concrete requires expensive tools and equipment as well as the expertise to use them. If you have any doubt about doing the job by yourself, by all means, hire a contractor. You may end up saving money in the long run with the cost of tools, preparation, rentals and mistakes.
When cutting concrete, the dust is horrible. Concrete dust can cause health problems and plenty of discomfort when breathing. You will need to take measures to avoid the dust. If you want to hire a pro, it costs about $500 to have a door cut out of a solid concrete wall.
Tools for Cutting Concrete
There are saws equipped with water sprayers to keep the cutting surface wet and keep the dust to a minimum. If you don't have water equipped tools, then you just have to wear a mask and avoid the debris the best you can. For one time cutting, you can get away with not using the water equipped cutting saws, but if you do it every day or often, then you want to use one with water.
There are all sorts of cutting tools involved in concrete cutting. For walls, the serious contractor uses a track-mounted diamond wall say that cuts up to 18 inches deep. They also have smaller handled hydraulic tools for smaller jobs that don't need to be as exact.
If you don't own the right equipment and go to rent it out, you will probably get a dry cut saw that rents for about $75 a day plus a surcharge for how much ware you put on the blade. Be aware though, the blade use alone can cost over $200, so ask before you rent.
Other tools you will likely need to cut hardened concrete include jack hammers, hammer drills, diamond chained chain saws, cut off saws, eye protection gear, noise protection, level, and basic construction tools.
Making Cuts
Okay, if you are reading this far, you probably have decided to do it yourself despite the cost and advice to hire a professional, so let's cover how to do a cut in concrete. There are different methods for different types of cutting jobs, but here we will cover a common door cut out. Again you may want to hire a pro for this work because they will have the type of equipment to do the job safely and efficiently. Even a pro will take several hours to cut out a door hole.
If you have a big enough saw blade and the wall is thin enough to cut all the way through the wall without extreme effort, then you are lucky. Chances are you won't have a deep enough blade cut on your saw to cut all the way through.
A circular saw with a 15 inch blade can only cut about 5 inches deep though concrete. So a lot of times, you end up having to settle for making a score on both sides of the concrete wall with the saw and using a jack hammer, sledge hammer or hammer drill to knock the rest of the way though the wall.
If you don't know what you are doing, hire someone. It is not worth losing a hand, foot, eye or anything else for. These types of saws are extremely loud, so be sure to wear earmuffs as well as eye gear, gloves and coveralls. Good luck on your concrete cutting job and be safe always.

i laugh everytime i see somebody pulling on WorldofBay to overtake clean.biggest mistake ever.
Poor planning is a big problem for a lot of EA titles
So, I suppose pretty much anything under 35" uses either a "forest start" or corner cutting ?
well bay, you kind of hid the game hud, so I will assume that was a 34"xx lap =D

I know it's not really soup weather YET, but when it has been a long stretch of 100+ degree weather, we'll take what we can get! And ever since my friend Nathan sent me this recipe from Bangladesh (for our International Festival cookbook), I've been wanting to try it.
I grew up eating my mom's lentil soup regularly. Her version had hamburger and some spices – I'm not even sure what anymore because I've corrupted it over the years making it for myself (usually at least bay leaf, black pepper, and ground cumin when I make it). This lentil soup recipe is similar, but vegetarian. It includes spinach (or cabbage) and a bit of vinegar, which gives it an unique tangy flavor. I like it a lot, but then again I've NEVER met a lentil soup I didn't like :)
Tomato Dal Soup
1 onion, chopped
1/4 c. olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 bay leaf
1 tsp. dried basil
2 c. diced tomatoes
2 c. dry lentils
8 c. water
1/2 c. spinach or cabbage, rinsed and thinly sliced (I use cabbage)
2 Tbsp. vinegar
1 tsp. cumin (or to taste)
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
In a large soup pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook and stir until onion is tender. Stir in garlic, bay leaf, oregano, and basil; sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in lentils, and add water and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for at least 1 hour.
Before serving stir in spinach or cabbage, and cook until it wilts. Stir in vinegar, and season to taste with salt and pepper and cumin, and more vinegar if desired.
Optional: Pulse in a blender (before adding spinach or cabbage) to make a smoother consistency. If you want you can also add a bit of cayenne pepper and cinnamon
Recipe from: Nathan Charles, working with Mennonite Central Committee in Dhaka, Bangladesh
