A cat surely used up one of its nine lives when it managed to find itself almost becoming a crocodile's lunch.
The little moggy somehow found its way into the crocodile enclosure at a zoo in Jaipur, India, and came face to face with a croc at the water's edge.
But if the croc thought it was dinner time, it had a swift bump back to reality after the kitty scratches it not once, but twice, on the snout.
The crocodile decides he's not that hungry, and slinks back into the water.
The cat v croc moment was filmed by Manu Chaudhary, 25, and her husband Vishal, 26, from Southall, Middlesex, who were celebrating their first wedding anniversary with a sightseeing day trip .
Mr Chaudhary, who lives in New Delhi, India, told the Daily Mail: "We initially thought the cat was under the impression that it was a rat in the pond.
"When the crocodile came up in the water we felt sure we were witnessing the last minutes of her life.
"We couldn't believe it though when the cat daringly warned the crocodile and then fearlessly slapped it twice.
The cat came up against a gharial crocodile, which is characterised by its extremely long, thin jaws, regarded as an adaptation to a predominantly fish diet.
Males can reach up to 20ft with an average weight of 350lb.
The species, also called gavial and fish-eating crocodile, is native to India and is listed as critically endangered.

A ONE-EYED cat is "feline" fantastic after being named puss of the year.
Nelson, from Seaham, has taken the trophy in the Cats Protection's National Cat of the Year Awards 2014.
The former stray wowed the judges with his amazing story of surviving near-drowning and 15 years of living rough on the docks at Seaham Harbour.
Twenty-year-old Nelson was named overall National Cat of The Year, after winning the Most Incredible Story category at an awards ceremony at The Savoy in London.
The plucky older gent has used up a fair share of his nine lives during an eventful life, which began when he was callously thrown into the sea in a sack with his littermates and plucked to safety by a fisherman.
Having lost an eye, dodged dog attacks and endured a gang throwing rocks at him, Nelson was eventually scared away from his home on the docks when heavy machinery was brought in to start building work on a new marina.
However, he hit the jackpot in 2009 when Andrea Huntley-Crow and her husband Dave, heard about his eventful life and gave him a new home in Seaton.
Nelson's woes didn't stop there. In January this year he was diagnosed with an inoperable heart tumour, but despite a bleak prognosis he has amazed vets with his zest for life. A panel of celebrity judges, including model Lucy Pinder, actress Lesley Joseph and newsreader Jan Leeming, decided Nelson should be crowned the nation's top cat.
Nelson beat four other finalists to take the top prize – pub cat Legz, who has helped bring communities together, loyal Cleo, who stayed by her owner's side when he suffered a heart attack, caring puss Elias, who helps his owner break free from bouts of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Mr Chips, who has helped his owner cope with a serious medical condition.
Proud owner Andrea was at the star-studded ceremony at The Savoy in London to pick up Nelson's category and overall winner's trophies, as well as a three-month supply of cat food courtesy of Purina.
She said: "We used to visit the harbour and the fisherman would tell us all about his tough life.
"He had some shelter in the fisherman's cabin, but certainly none of the comforts of a home.
"He had to contend with a lot, the threat of dog attacks and gangs that threw rocks at him, which may be how he lost his eye, not to mention the bitterly cold winters.
"To do that for 15 years is quite something, and we're just pleased he now finally has the warm, loving home he deserves."

Ricky Gervais
Ricky Dene Gervais (born 25 June 1961) is an English comedian, actor, director, producer, musician, writer, and former radio presenter.
- The truth doesn't hurt. Whatever it is, it doesn't hurt. It's better to know the truth.
- You have options. You can either continue to be miserable or you can just stop being angry at everyone and accept the way things are. Allow yourself to live.
- If there is a god, why did he make me an atheist? That was his first mistake. Well, the talking snake was his first mistake.
- Why don't you believe in God? I get that question all the time. I always try to give a sensitive, reasoned answer. This is usually awkward, time consuming and pointless. People who believe in God don't need proof of his existence, and they certainly don't want evidence to the contrary. They are happy with their belief. They even say things like "it's true to me" and "it's faith." I still give my logical answer because I feel that not being honest would be patronizing and impolite. It is ironic therefore that "I don't believe in God because there is absolutely no scientific evidence for his existence and from what I've heard the very definition is a logical impossibility in this known universe" comes across as both patronizing and impolite.
- Science seeks the truth. And it does not discriminate. For better or worse it finds things out. Science is humble. It knows what it knows and it knows what it doesn't know. It bases its conclusions and beliefs on hard evidence -- evidence that is constantly updated and upgraded. It doesn't get offended when new facts come along. It embraces the body of knowledge. It doesn't hold on to medieval practices because they are tradition. If it did, you wouldn't get a shot of penicillin, you'd pop a leach down your trousers and pray.
- I think a comedian's job isn't just to make people laugh. I think it's to make people think.
- Ricky Gervais at Piers Morgan Tonight, 2011

Brenda Smith has devoted the last 15 years to helping a boy, Min Anh, who lives on the other side of the world in Vietnam. Min Anh suffers from a skin condition which causes him to have painful fish-like scales all over his body.
Brenda first fell in love with Vietnam in 1995 while taking part in a charity bike ride with her husband Baz. Sadly Baz suffered a heart attack in the same year. He was just 55.
He had been taking part in a charity swim to raise money for the Vietnemese children they had seen; children with severe disabilities and birth defects caused by Agent Orange, a dangerous chemical left in the soil and water supply after the Vietnam War.
Heartbroken Brenda planned one more visit to Vietnam in her husband's memory. But while volunteering at an orphanage, she fell in love with brave Min Anh, who was dumped as a baby because of his scaly skin and nicknamed Ka - or Fish Boy - by other orphans.
Barcroft Media
It is likely that Min Anh's painful skin condition is the result of Agent Orange infection.
"All he wanted to do was sit in my lap," recalls Brenda of their first meeting. "I sat there for a couple of hours and didn't want to move. I just fell in love with him and it's been like that ever since."
Barcroft Media
For the last 15 years Brenda, now 78, from Benfleet, Essex, has returned to see the brave little boy. The pair found a way of communicating, even though Min Anh, now 18, doesn't speak English, and Brenda knows little Vietnamese.
The determined widow, who has three grown-up daughters and five grandchildren, took on hospital authorities who left Min Anh tied to his bed for hours because they didn't know how to treat him.
"When I first went to see him at Tu Du Hospital, he was tied up from morning to night, so he wouldn't scratch himself," she says.
"The staff didn't know how to help him. I hated to see him like that, without any toys or amusement."
But Brenda's persistence paid off, and staff allowed the kindly English lady to untie Min Anh and take him out for day trips around Ho Chi Min City.
Brenda stayed for three months every year and she was the only person allowed to take Min Anh out.
Year after year, over 15 years, their extraordinary friendship grew stronger as together they went to shops, restaurants and on motorbike rides around Ho Chi Min City.
Barcroft Media
She says: "Just walking around the supermarket is like a treat to Min Anh because the cold air soothes his skin.
When we got back to the ward, he'd walk back to his bed and tie himself up again because he was used to it.
Brenda, a former secretary who has no medical knowledge, spent years trying to find a doctor to diagnose Min Anh's skin condition but had no idea where to start.
The documentary, The Boy They Call Fish, follows Brenda's most recent visit to Vietnam in early 2012, as an expert dermatologist is called in to try to diagnose and treat Min Anh. Min Anh has turned 18 and she wants to be sure the boy she thinks of as her son has a happier future.
Brenda told her local paper: "I'm so pleased this documentary has been made as hopefully millions of people will see it.
"If it means someone out there can help Min Ahh then it's wonderful.
He is so special to me. Every time I go out there his face lights up.
Barcroft Media
"If I take him to the supermarket you'd think I was taking him to Disneyland.
"He doesn't get much attention or love. As I had to leave on this last trip I said to him in Vietnamese 'I love you Min Anh and I'll be back soon to see you'.
"He replied, 'I love you too. I understand'.
"He is the light of my life. He has endured so much and with so little love in his life.
"Hopefully this will change once the world learns of his plight."
The Boy They Call Fish airs on Channel 5 at 9pm on June 21

POSTED: Jul 16, 2014 1:41 PM ET
Nerlens Noel has impressed in Summer League after missing all of last season due to injury.
LAS VEGAS — The Summer League schedule format changes Wednesday, and so does the Ladder.
The previous rankings started as the post-draft look at the best chances for Rookie of the Year, were adjusted as teams played in Orlando, then shifted again as the early returns came in from Vegas, always connecting it to the eventual ROY race. Now that everyone has played enough games to be on even footing, though, the Ladder shifts is to rating players strictly on actual performance, not on potential and not on the chances the same production will carry over to the 2014-15 season with backup minutes.
Tracking the race for Rookie of the Year will resume with the first Ladder of the season. But for now, and through the Las Vegas Summer League Championship game on Monday, July 21, the daily updates will focus on summer production.
That includes a change at the top that probably would have come under either format. Nerlens Noel not only played, noteworthy enough after being sidelined all 2013-14 following knee surgery, but played well. Jabari Parker, anointed as the ROY front-runner heading into summer league, has had good money and flashed his versatile game.
1. NERLENS NOEL, 76ers (previous ranking: 2)
The No. 6 pick in 2013 is averaging 12 points, six rebounds and four blocks while also intimidating players into changing shots inside. The key stat: 28.5 minutes with six appearances in the 11 Philly games in both cities.
2. JARNELL STOKES, Grizzlies (4)
The second-round pick, No. 35 overall, finished Orlando averaging nine rebounds a game in 26 minutes, without ever playing more than 30 minutes. Though struggling with his shot at times, Stokes still scored 10, 16, 11 and 12 points in the limited time.
3. DOUG McDERMOTT, Bulls (8)
With the chance to keep climbing, McDermott went from an underwhelming opener to scoring 31 points in 27 minutes against the Nuggets and 20 points in 26 minutes against the Timberwolves, with the Minnesota game also including six assists and five rebounds.
4. JAMES ENNIS, Heat (5)
Leaving Monday after 14 minutes and sitting Tuesday because of the strained groin changes nothing. In five full games, Ennis has scored at least 17 points four times, while also contributing 5.5 rebounds in 22.2 minutes per game.
5. T.J. WARREN, Suns (not ranked)
Fifty-four points in 63 minutes. That's how to break into the rankings. Warren, the No. 14 pick, continues to score in bunches, just as he did at North Carolina State. He also had 11 rebounds Tuesday after a slow start on the boards the first two games.
6. JORDAN ADAMS, Grizzlies (6)
Adams left Orlando on a bad note, by making just five of 13 shots and scoring 11 points against the 76ers, but that was after scoring at least 19 points in three of the four previous games. The Grizzlies are not playing in Las Vegas.
7. JORDAN CLARKSON, Lakers (nr)
The second-round pick with a lot to prove, though with the benefit of playing on a team that needs bodies, had an opening statement of 21, 16 and 19 points in the first three games. Four assists and 10 turnovers cost him the chance to move higher.
8. JABARI PARKER, Bucks (1)
Parker has yet to offer the kind of dazzling performance people want from a No. 2 pick, but he has had a lot of good moments despite shooting 37.5 percent. He had 11 rebounds in one game and nine in another, four steals one game, and has defended two positions.
9. ELFRID PAYTON, Magic (10)
While the 1.75-1 assist-to-turnover ratio is a bad number for a point guard, Payton did a lot of other things well in Orlando. He shot 59.3 percent, averaged 5.2 rebounds from the backcourt in five games, and showed signs of the potential on defense.
10. GARY HARRIS, Nuggets (nr)
The one bad game was really bad: one make in 12 shots against the Bulls, including four tries and four misses from behind the arc. The two other games, though, he piled up 33 and 18 points, even if he shot just six of 21 on 3-pointers.
Dropped out: Julius Randle (3), Andrew Wiggins (7), Dante Exum (9).

Throughout the past decade the health status of our nation's adolescents has become of increasing concern to many in the field of Maternal Child Health.

Every day, professionals are developing a better understanding of the health issues affecting women, children, and families in our communities, and are coming up with creative, informed ways to prevent disease and promote health.

Featuring articles on the national EMCT stakeholders group, which is using local data and actions to influence a national movement, in-depth information on the FIMR/HIV Prevention Methodology (www.fimrhiv.org), and the local perspective on FIMR/HIV, this issue will broaden your understanding of mother-to-child HIV transmission and why it is important for MCH.
This issue of CityLights offers readers an opportunity to learn more about the exceptional sessions and speakers that were featured at the 2012 CityMatCH Conference cohosted with the MCH EPI Conference.

After Alec Baldwin made headlines yet again for another gay-bashing tirade earlier this month, the actor was fired from his weekly show at MSNBC.
The news channel initially suspended Baldwin after he got himself up a creek for another of his many homophobic slur-filled rants. The hotheaded actor lashed out at a photographer, calling him a "c***sucking f*****," and later denied the gay insult, saying he called the paparazzo a "c***sucking fathead" instead.
However, GLAAD informed Baldwin that both words he used were considered offensive by gay people, and he should use more caution when lashing out at someone. He then took to Twitter to make an apology and claim he was unaware that the term he used was degrading to gay people.
Baldwin didn't stop there, either. He tried to get a male hairdresser to let everyone know just how much love he really has for the gay community. Then, TMZ reported, during a tech conference in San Francisco last week, the former Jack Ryan actor told the audience about all the male loves he's had over the years.
"I've loved men in my life. There are some men I've loved in my life as much, if not more, than the women in my life," Baldwin professed. "I don't have a sexual preference for men... but I've loved men."
When all these male-love confessions didn't feel like enough, Baldwin continued, "I've been in love with about three or four men... as much, if not more, than any woman I've loved." However, he also made sure everyone knew just how far all this love of men really went. "I don't want to have a sexual relationship with them."
Ultimately, though, the mayhem that resulted from the 30 Rock star's outburst and the poor ratings for his Up Late with Alec Baldwin show prompted the news network to decide it's best to let the outspoken actor go, and he was given his walking papers.

IWC welcomes 2015 Masters cohort at The University of Queensland
"Cyclone Marcia hitting the Queensland coast heralded an exciting start to the 2015 Masters of Integrated Water Management program," said Dr Brian McIntosh, IWC Senior Lecturer and Education Program Manager.
Water professionals from 23 nationalities came together in Brisbane to start their journey learning about integrated water management, leadership and transformation in the water sector.
After an initial welcome and induction into IWC, the university and the program, the students participated in workshops and Masterclasses on Water Leadership and Critical Thinking, and lectures on New Perspectives on Project Management and the Science of Water and got to know each other through group work and problem-based-learning (PBL) activities.
"Seeing so many water professionals come together to engage in learning across disciplines, scales, boundaries and cultures is very exciting," Dr McIntosh said. "I can't think of anywhere else where representatives of Australian Federal, State and Local Governments, utilities, mining companies and consulting firms mix and learn with professionals from South American, North American, African, European, Middle Eastern, South Asian and South East Asian Government agencies, utilities, consulting firms and NGOs.
"The water sector faces profound challenges across the twenty first century as our rainfall patterns continue to change, our populations grow and our cities expand. Learning is at the heart of how we will collectively reshape the ways in which we access and use water globally."
"I chose the IWC Masters program because I want to be exposed to cutting-edge research that I can apply in my work," said one student.
"There isn't a strong emphasis in the US on an integrated approach to water management," said another. "You either study policy or science. Australia is known to have innovative solutions in water management, given their drought history."
"I look forward to being part of the conversation, specifically in the community consultation space," said another participant. "This program will enable me to attain employment all over Australia and internationally."

Ticketmaster Mayhem
I am used to him ringing me when he can't operate his Skybox and/or his video, or disc player etc so I then tried for him. At about 7pm I eventually got through to the automated service, which then proceeded to take over 30 minutes to complete the transaction. The most frustrating part was where your name and address was supposedly voice recorded, however when it was played back to you it was empty. I then realised that there was a long delay before the recording started because I heard my wife calling the kids for there tea on the recording which was several seconds after I had originally finished giving the info.
Eventually all was done and I rang my old fella. He was a man with mixed emotions. I think he was pleased in one way to have a ticket but still a little worried he still might not be able to share the experience with me. I remember him saying earlier "60 years I have been waiting for Pompey to get to Wembley and I wont be able to go" and his frustration emphasized when he had said "If I can't get a ticket I'm going to go down to the club to tell them to cancel my season ticket from now on".
Now I've got to do it all again for him for my ticket on the 24th. AAAAGGGHHHH!!!! This system was frustrating for me, how much more for an OAP who doesn't do technology!

State to replicate Kerala's Student Police Cadet project
Following in the footsteps of Kerala, the Haryana Police have proposed to start Student Police Cadet (SPC) programme in four zones.india Updated: Oct 15, 2013 15:46 IST
Following in the footsteps of Kerala, the Haryana Police have proposed to start Student Police Cadet (SPC) programme in four zones.
The proposed group of volunteers would be on a par with the NCC cadets, scouts and guides, and NSS volunteers which focus to build discipline, community service, civic sense among the student community.
Besides Karnal, the districts which have been chosen for the pilot projects are Kurukshetra and the commissionerates of the Ambala-Panchkula and Gurgaon.
In 2008, the SPC project was introduced in Kerala as an attempt to inculcate better civic sense among students and to mould them as responsible youth who will react positively to demands of society.
Now, 230 schools have enrolled in the programme which invited wide appreciation in Kerala.
Karnal superintendent of police (SP) Shashank Anand convened a meeting of the school representatives and the district education department on Monday evening which evoked a positive response from all quarters.
He said that the SPC would help in making the school campuses free from tobacco and girls' harassment, alike social issues.
He said that the SPC would also help in bridging a gap between police and public.
Deputy SP Bharti Dabas, who will be the nodal officer of the project experts at the Haryana Police Academy (HPA) Madhuban, near here would be roped in for the project.
"It is proposed to have a platoon of 25 students and each school may have two platoons. Cadets will be given a special physical training and managing functions at their schools and the vicinity," he said.
However, the SP said that the project would not be aimed at preparing nursery for future policemen and age group for the enrollment on the suggestions of various stakeholders.
"There will be a special focus on girls' participation and we are delighted with the response given by the school representatives on the proposal," he said, adding, "Now, the proposal will be sent to the police headquarters which will forward it to the state government to provide special funds for uniforms, training, literature for the cadets," the SP said.
He said that in Kerala, various public sector enterprises were associated with the SPC under their corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects.
Meanwhile, president of district association of CBSE schools, Rajan Lamba, who had attended Monday's meeting told Hindustan Times that all 72 schools would implement the SPC project which was aimed at sensitising the students about various issues including traffic rules.

Schools across Eastbourne and Seaford are encouraging students to jump on their bikes and scooters for The Big Pedal (March 3-14) a national competition organised by charity Sustrans which aims to get more children active.
Hundreds of thousands of youngsters are expected to take part in the Big Pedal 2014, an inter-school competition where schools get points for the more students who make journeys by bike or scooter.
First launched in 2009, the Big Pedal has gained popularity over the past five years and has become the UK's largest inter-school cycling and scooting competition. The Big Pedal engages children in cycling and scooting to school in a fun way with the aim that they will continue cycling and scooting after the competition has finished.
Philip Manning, Bike It Officer, Sustrans said, "We're really excited that so many schools are taking part in the Big Pedal. We hope that by encouraging students and parents to walk, cycle and scoot to school over the next two weeks that we will see a reduction in congestion and pollution around school gates, and help students feel healthier and happier."
Malcolm Shepherd, Sustrans chief executive, said, "The average primary school journey is just 1.5 miles – the perfect distance to walk or cycle.
"We hope the Big Pedal will help thousands of families rediscover the fun and freedom of cycling to school, get fit and save money at the same time. I wish the staff, parents and students in East Sussex good luck, and look forward to finding out the results!"

"Think outside the box." That's what a recent writer to the Juneau Empire urged in her letter regarding the proposal to restructure high school education when Thunder Mountain High School opens in 15 months. That's exactly what the 35-member community committee did as it met for nearly 40 hours over six months.
Sound off on the important issues at
After looking at local statistics about graduation, achievement and extracurricular involvement, the group of parents, students, educators, university officials and business owners recognized that Juneau should not keep doing high school the way it has been done. We're losing too many kids along the way.
The group then read about how other schools are successfully tackling drop-out rates and achievement gaps. In the meantime, a series of open houses were held at schools and other places to get feedback from the public. There were strong feelings about not dividing the community, about making school work for kids who aren't connecting and about offering challenging classes at both locations.
The recommendations to the board from "The Next Generation: Our Community, Our Kids," answer those concerns and, indeed, are outside the box.
There are no geographic boundaries to divide the community into town versus valley.
Kids and their families can choose a school based on its special offerings or its proximity. Busing will be provided as needed.
Each school will develop around three focus areas (possibilities could include arts, health sciences, technology, etc.) so that kids in grades 10-12 can experience specialized classes which connect to our community. Even though upper-grade students will be involved in a "themed academy," they can pursue electives, and advanced placement courses will be offered at both schools.
In ninth grade, students will be on teams with four to six teachers. The freshman year is a risky transitional time when dropping out behaviors (such as skipping and flunking classes) get serious. A team of teachers working together can stay on top of students' attendance and grades and, as they get to know a student, help them choose a themed academy for the next year.
Every kid will have an adult advocate. This advisory system is a practice common among high schools that have reduced drop-out rates. The advocate will help a small group of students get to know one another and figure out a route to graduation.
It's understood that simply dividing current staff and students doesn't reduce class size, however, an advisory system and less-crowded conditions will go a long way toward making sure that no student slips through the cracks.
Extracurricular activities will be offered at both schools. Students tell us that often it's the sports and activities that keep them in school. Expanding those opportunities can connect more kids to school. Funding sports is an expensive proposition, even in a generous town such as Juneau. The committee recognized that adequate, stable, equitable funding for sports and activities must be developed.
Finally, while a 9/10-11/12 split was suggested in some public feedback, the committee discovered that Juneau could lose more than a million dollars in school funding and that such a division doesn't help the drop-out rate in the few places it's used.
I urge the public to become familiar with the "Next Generation" proposal (visit www.nextgenerationjuneau.com). We have the chance to remake high school in this town - not just for the sake of "thinking outside the box," but for the sake of our children.

Newly signed quarterback Kyle Orton has started 69 NFL games, but he knows the only way he will get to 70 with the Dallas Cowboys is if Tony Romo suffers an injury.
And Orton is OK with that reality, coach Jason Garrett said Thursday.
"He's a real pro," Garrett said of Orton, who will turn 30 this season. "He understands the situation. He's been a starter in this league. He's been a backup in this league. He understands the importance of team chemistry and chemistry within the quarterback room."

The Alaska Marine Highway System captain in charge of the state ferry Kennicott when it hit a rock in Wrangell Narrows last month will have his license suspended for a month, the U.S. Coast Guard said Monday.
The Coast Guard determined lack of sufficient rest may have contributed to the problem, but noted Capt. Gary Anderson, 53, had an unblemished record in his 11 years with the ferry system until the June 3 incident.
Capt. George Capacci, general manager of the ferry system, said Anderson's workload was not unusual for a ferry captain. The ferry system requires that captains get at least 10 hours off per 24-hour period, and at least 70 hours off per week, but there are no requirements for sleep.
"The captains are up when the ships go through restricted waterways and usually at all moorings and unmoorings and things like that. An eight-hour sleep is an uncommon occurrence," he said.
The Coast Guard determination is binding. Anderson, of Olympia, Wash., has been on administrative leave since June 3, and it's unclear whether that time will count toward his one-month suspension.
"I have every confidence in the world in Capt. Anderson and his abilities," Capacci said. "I think the public is served by his presence on the ships."
The Kennicott was headed to Petersburg on June 3 with 163 passengers and 56 vehicles when it hit the rock. No one was injured, though the ship's hull plating was cracked. The Coast Guard found that Anderson gave an order to the helmsman to steer to the left when he should have ordered him to steer to the right.
The Coast Guard noted that Anderson took corrective action immediately after he gave the order, but heavy fog and the narrow width of the channel made it difficult to correct the error. The Coast Guard and the ferry system said Anderson's corrective action did limit the damage to the vessel.
Despite that, the investigation concluded Anderson was negligent, according to Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Roger Wetherell.
"There is a punishable phase for negligence," Wetherell said.
Anderson also will have a period of probation after the month's suspension. It's not clear when the suspension will begin.
Capacci said the ferry system has not yet completed its investigation, but its preliminary findings were similar to the Coast Guard's.

As a precaution i fab-ed some brake ducts -
DIY Here
-, upgraded the brake system with carbon composite pads, new OEM discs and SRF oil.
Should be enough on a car you already payed 145.000 Euro's for...(in Holland, Taxes don't ask...
After a nice mornin' of abusing my M3, shown here in this vid: (Coming Soon)
The brakes where going down and suddenly were gone...I missed the corner, but luckily there was some runoff. I pulled in to pitlane.
This is a photographic evidence and proof that: ' THE BRAKES ON THE BMW M3 SUCK!!!!! The are SHIT!...As a professional race car driver i give them a beating. But i recommend everybody to change the stock brakes to a BBK.
C 4 ur selfe!
Again excuse my Iphone picas....
Attachment 323861
Yes that's right! A glowing super hot LF brake disk, Like on a F1, IRL and DTM car.
Attachment 323866
After a while i turned the discs with a screw driver. The glowing part is where the pads where.
Attachment 323862
Oeps....what's that abscess on the OEM brake line? That nice rubber non metallic OEM brake line looks burnt.!
Attachment 323865
Attachment 323874
Does that caliper look well done?...it's burnt!
Attachment 323864
I'm happy i postponed, painting the OEM brake calipers red till after the track day...
I let everything chill 4 a bit.
Then i wanted to take it apart.
Attachment 323870
You undo the caliper by loosening these 2 screws. The plastic cap are melted.
Upon disassembly the brake like BROKE OUT OF THE FITTING!
Attachment 323867
Yes, i was lucky that didn't happen on track!
Attachment 323873
The brake like was kooked out.
The 1 (one) and ONLY, piston in the caliper is F*kced!
Attachment 323868
Pads could look worse...
Attachment 323869
The are bent.
Attachment 323876
A sad sight when everybody else with old BMW's with their wel designed brake are havin' fun on track!!
Attachment 323875
The chain of event that led to these never seen before events are:
- BMW engineers design and fit the BMW with SHIT brake system.
- Customer that expects performance buy's a M3.
- Customer upgrades stock brake system to be ahead of the game.
- Customer drives the car on track, and it's ok for half a day.
- Brake pads wear.
- Heat get's to much for the !SINGLE! piston in the caliper.
- Rubbers burn piston get's stuck.
- Heat burns the pain the caliper.
- Brake line blisters.
- Brake disc glows up nice and red
- Brakes distroid
- Unhappy customer, spending even more money on his car that should have been fitted with proper brake in the first place.
I drove home in an E30 325 and my M3 was on the trailer.
Felt kinda strange leaving the track in somebody else's car with mine broken.
I'll be in Vegas for the 9th till the 16th of November. Anybody wanna do me an offer on a BBK? PM me.
Slow down there buddy...
If you lean on any
standard duty
part for too long, it will buckle and/or break with
stress and heat.
Your results only prove that point.
It does not mean BMW designed a faulty brake system. If that was true, your results would be widely reported all over the world. And the last time I checked... that was not the case.
So please save your outrage for products more deserving of such ridicule. Thanks.
The best is yet to come...

MetaModel 2.0.2
The eobjects.org MetaModel is a project created for maximum reuse of a SQL-compliant domain model of the database domain. The MetaModel is a model that contains classes that represent the structure of a database (schemas, tables, column, relationships) and interaction with the database (queries) in a SQL/LINQ-like way. In short, it is a model for modelling data in databases and other datastores. With MetaModel you can query different datastores like databases, CSV files, Excel spreadsheets, MS Access files, and XML files using the same approach and the same domain model.
The Excel adapter now uses the new Streaming API in Apache POI, which means that support for very large Excel spreadsheets is much better. A bug was fixed that caused CSV writing to not respect the separator and quote character defined for the file format. Performance was improved in query postprocessing by applying sub-selections just-in-time instead of ahead of time. An experimental adapter has been added for MongoDB databases. The adapter supports querying MongoDB using the well known MetaModel query API.

Regimental History - 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment (19951 - 1957)
An April 16, 1951, the 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment (AIR) was reactivated at Fort Bragg, NC. On May 5, 1951, the 508th AIR Reactivation Day Parade was held. The airborne recruits who had just completed their basic training were assembled on the regimental parade ground of the 504th AIR. On the reviewing stand were MG Thomas Hickey, CG of the 82d Abn Div, BG Roy E. Lindquist, WW II CO of the 508th PIR, 1st SG Leonard A. Funk, Jr., Medal of Honor recipient from WW II, and the new Commanding Officer of the 508th AIR, COL Joseph P. Cleland.
The airborne volunteers, who had just completed basic training, were moved to Fort Benning, GA in three successive weeks to receive airborne training and begin the task of bringing the newly reactivated regiment up to its authorized strength at its new location in the Sand Hill area of Fort Benning, GA.
In August 1951, the 508th Airborne Regimental Combat Team (ARCT) was formed and comprised of the following units:
The 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment (AIR) consisting of Headquarters and Headquarters Company, Service Company, Medical Company, Support Company and three Infantry Battalions. Each infantry battalion consisted of a Headquarters Company, three Rifle Companies and a Heavy Weapons Company. Each battalion had their own unit designation which was worn on the left side of their jet black highly lacquered helmet liner.
1st Bn, 508th
AIR 2d Bn, 508th
AIR 3d Bn, 508th AIR
The Regimental shoulder insignia was worn on the right side of the helmet liner.
The 320th Airborne Field Artillery Battalion joined the Regiment in August 1951 to form the 508th Airborne Regimental Combat (ARCT).
The 598th Airborne Engineer Company joined the ARCT in September 1951.
In August, 1952 the 19th Airborne Quartermaster Detachment was organized at Fort Benning, GA as the first such unit in the Army. On September 23, 1952, the detachment was redesignated the 519th Airborne Quartermaster Company and became a component of the 508th Airborne Regimental Combat Team.
The 427th Airborne Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battery was activated and joined the ARCT on January 1, 1955. In early 1955, a Regimental Tank Company was activated, but was then deactivated prior to the ARCT's participation in Operation Gyroscope in July, 1955.
The regimental crest for the 508th Infantry Regiment was approved for wear by The Institute of Heraldry, US Army on September 4, 1951 and was first worn by the proud members of the 508th AIR. LTC Clyde M. Dillender, Jr., Regimental Executive Officer originated the motto "Fury From The Sky" which was incorporated into the regimental crest. See Regimental Coat of Arms/Lineage/Decorations section for the official crest description.
On October 15, 1951, the 508th Airborne Regiment Combat Team shoulder sleeve insignia was officially approved. This was the first shoulder sleeve insignia designed specifically for the 508th Infantry. The insignia was an adaptation of that worn by the 82d Airborne Division which furnished the cadre for the regiment when it was reactivated at Fort Bragg, NC. In lieu of "AA" in the 82d insignia, a blue wyvern was designed for the 508th ARCT.
Throughout the Summer and Fall of 1951, ground training and airborne operations intensified as the Red Devils prepared for their next test.
In December, 1951 the Red Devils moved to Camp Rucker, Alabama where they were the aggressor force pitted against the 47th Infantry Division (Vikings). During the exercise, the Red Devils proved their mettle against the 47th in their aggressiveness and quick movement. Aggressors usually lose these mock wars but the Red Devils were so skillful at infiltration tactics and surprise raids that the Vikings were unofficially conceded to have lost the exercise.
Exercise Long Horn was the next big exercise for the 3,800 highly trained Red Devils. Pitted against the 82d Airborne Division, the Red Devils were slated to conduct a massive airborne drop on April 8, 1952 despite the forecast of high winds. Right on time, the Red Devils hit the silk despite encountering 20 mile per hour winds. Col. Joe F. Lawrie, CO of the ARCT and BG Lacey Murrow, CO of the 18th Troop Carrier, made the decision to drop not knowing that LTG William Hoge had ordered the big drop canceled when winds exceeded 15 MPH. One trooper was killed and 221 were injured, 196 serious enough to be admitted to the hospital. GEN. J. Lawton Collins, Army Chief of Staff, was visiting at Fort Hood to observe the jump. But like newsmen, believed it had been called off and missed it. He was quoted as saying "He was satisfied with the jump. It is dangerous. That is why the paratroopers are made up of volunteers. That is why they get extra pay."

Throughout its assignment at Fort Benning, the 508th continued to train as a Combat Team, support the Infantry School, provide cadre for ROTC Summer Camp training, and provided instructors in support of the Ranger School at both its northern Georgia and Florida camps. In addition, the 2nd Battalion, under the leadership of LTC Herbert V. Mansfield (right), pioneered the light poncho roll concept which allowed the Infantryman to move faster and eliminated the backpack entirely. The Regiment also tested new airborne equipment both at Fort Benning and special desert warfare equipment in the Yuma, Arizona area.
Late 1952 and early 1953 saw the strength of the Regiment depleted as the officers and men of the Regiment were ordered to Korea as individual replacements. Many who had volunteered to join the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team were diverted to Infantry Divisions in Korea who were in need of replacements due to combat loses. The Regiment received orders to move to Fort Campbell, Ky effective February 15, 1954 with attachment to the 11th Airborne Division. On April8, 1954 the Regimental Combat Team was reorganized at Fort Campbell as a General Reserve, Class 1 unit. The regiment received additional troops and once again began intensive unit training. During this period the regiment got it's first look at the C-124 Globemaster aircraft and became one of the first units to jump from what was then the largest transport aircraft in the Air Force inventory. Little did the Red Devils realize that less than a year later they would once again become reacquainted with the Globemaster for more than a short ride and jump.

After 17 months at Fort Campbell, the Regimental Combat Team was once again ordered to effect a permanent change of station. This time the Red Devils took part in Operation Gyroscope - an exchange with the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team stationed in Camps Chickamauga and Wood in Beppu and Kumamoto, Japan respectively. The 187th ARCT was to return to Fort Bragg, NC. Once again, the Red Devils met up with the C-124 Globemaster. At that time, this was the largest air movement of troops ever undertaken by the Army and Air Force.

The objective of Operation Gyroscope was to airlift 3,800 Red Devils of the 508th ARCT to Japan and to ferry to Fort Bragg, NC 3,200 men of the 187th ARCT. A steady stream of C-124's, each carrying approximately 90 troopers and seven tons of equipment, leap-frogged across the Pacific both ways to complete the transfer in 10 days. The operation started at the airfield at Fort Campbell, KY. From then on a plane took off every 2 hours and landed in Japan approximately 50 hours later. Stops were made in California, Hawaii and Wake Island for refueling, food and crew rotation. The actual flying time from Fort Campbell to Japan was 43 hours.
July 8 saw another unique side to Operation Gyroscope. This was the movement of dependents via sea transport. Two ships, the USS General A. E. Anderson and the USS General J. C. Breckinridge, carried 704 Red Devil dependents to Japan. After a 10 day voyage to Moji, Japan, the Red Devil dependents were met at the port by their husbands who had accompanied their family to California and then boarded aircraft at their stop at Travis AFB, CA for the rest of their journey to Japan.
After their arrival at their respective stations the Red Devils began to unpack, check all equipment left by the 187th and prepare to commence training at the various training areas. The 1st Battalion moved by vehicle to their major training area in early August and celebrated their arrival in Japan by making a 25 mile hike with full field equipment back to Camp Wood after several weeks of intensive training.
Deployment to Japan saw the Red Devils faced with many situations not normally encountered by a Regimental Combat Team. While both Camps Chickamauga and Wood had a small support compliment, the Regiment had to appoint many troops to assume additional duties such as Finance, Post Exchange, Clubs, Postal and other "housekeeping activities. For example, the Military Police Detachment at Camp Wood (right) was comprised of troopers from the 1st Battalion and the 320th Abn FA Bn. In addition, Medical, Service and Engineering troops were split between the two camps.
August, 1955 through June, 1956 saw the Red Devils busy with intensified training at the various training locations on the island of Kyushu. They walked, rode, entrained and jumped into training areas regardless of the weather.

Perhaps the most significant exercise undertaken by the Red Devils in 1955 was their participation in Operation Firm Link, a joint SEATO exercise conducted near Bangkok, Thailand. Representatives of all SEATO members were involved. Troops of the 2nd Battalion and Battery B, 320th Abn FA Bn formed a Battalion Combat Team commanded by LTC Edwin H. Patterson. Stops were made at Okinawa and Clark AFB, P. I. on the way to Bangkok.

Operation Gyroscope was suppose to be a stabilized three year tour, however, that was not to be. The Regimental Combat Team was ordered back to Fort Campbell, KY and all elements returned in July 56 - almost a year to the date of their departure from the same station. The Regimental Combat Team, along with the 187th ARCT, which was also ordered to Fort Campbell, Ky from Fort Bragg, NC. The mission of the two proud Airborne Regimental Combat Teams was to cadre the formation of the 101st Airborne Division which was reactivated at Fort Campbell, KY in late July, 1956.
A much reduced 508th Infantry became a part of the 101st Airborne Division and was designated "The Schools Command" for the Division. Its mission was to provide Infantry Advanced Individual Training (AIT) for those recruits who had volunteered for the 101st Airborne Division after they had completed their basic training. The recruits were assigned to various units of the Division sent to the Division Jump School. Upon satisfactory completion of Jump School, the new troopers received their Advanced Individual Training conducted by the training cadre of 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment.
In March, 1957 the mission of the 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment was completed. The 508th Airborne Infantry Regiment was deactivated on March 27, 1957 at Fort Campbell, Ky after a period of almost six years of outstanding active service. The remaining personnel of the 508th were reassigned to various units of the 101st Airborne Division.

The Best Martial Art
It is a very difficult task to determine which martial art is the best so first of all let's take a look what a martial art exactly is and what not.
The word "martial art" consists of 2 parts ; "martial" and "art" both of them are very important as you will see in the following lines in the determination of what a martial art exactly is.
According to the dictionary the word martial means:
1. Of, relating to, or suggestive of war.
2. Relating to or connected with the armed forces or the profession of arms.
3. Characteristic of or befitting a warrior. As you can see, martial has everything to do with war and the ways of the warrior.
The word "Art" on the other hand gives the following definition:
1. Human effort to imitate, supplements, alters, or counteracts the work of nature.
a. The conscious production or arrangement of sounds, colors, forms, movements, or other elements in a manner that affects the sense of beauty, specifically the production of the beautiful in a graphic or plastic medium.
b. The study of these activities.
c. The product of these activities; human works of beauty considered as a group.
3. High quality of conception or execution, as found in works of beauty; aesthetic value.
4. A field or category of art, such as music, ballet, or literature.
5. A non-scientific branch of learning; one of the liberal arts.
a. A system of principles and methods employed in the performance of a set of activities: the art of building.
b. A trade or craft that applies such a system of principles and methods: the art of the lexicographer.
a. Skill that is attained by study, practice, or observation: the art of the baker; the blacksmith's art.
b. Skill arising from the exercise of intuitive faculties: "Self-criticism is an art not many are qualified to practice" (Joyce Carol Oates).
a. Arts Artful devices, stratagems, and tricks.
b. Artful contrivance; cunning.
So combining the two this would give us "a system of war principles and war methods employed in the performance of a set of warlike activities" as a useful definition for martial art.
In short; "the training of the methods and principles of war"
It is very important that we understand this because most martial arts nowadays are not martial arts as defined by the definition above.War is not defined by rules, competition or divisions. War has only one goal; the destruction of the opponent by all necessary means in the shortest time possible.
The moment a martial art sets rules of competition, divisions, and rules of engagement or protection, the martial aspect of the martial art is lost and the martial art in question becomes a completely different thing.
Now I am not going to write about the sports derived martial arts because the question in this article is "What is the best martial art"
In my opinion the best martial art is the one that gives you the widest range of options of survival in a true case of life and dead confrontation.
This means that the martial art must be prepared to give the practitioner the possibility and means to deal with both armed as well as unarmed opponents, single or multiple attacks and so on.
This is not only done by techniques because techniques and the human capacity to perform them in the short period of time (seconds) during a true case and in constantly changing environments , situations and against different opponents makes it virtually impossible to use only techniques to overcome all sorts of attacks.
This is where the martial methods in Japan became an art. Being aware of the limitations of training (limited time and physical capacity) the Japanese bushi started to study the underlying principles of war. They found out that all human beings have similar reactions when they find themselves in similar situations.
Let me give you an example to make this clear: When someone touches a hot stove his hand automatically recoils without even having to think about pulling your hand back. Or when your head is pulled down, your body automatically will follow and to prevent falling to the floor you will resist pulling to the opposite side of the force that is pulling you down.
Knowing and understanding these concepts gave the bushi in ancient Japan an enormous advantage over their adversaries. It increased by no small amount their capacity to deal with life threatening situations.
Today this is still useful and I think it will always be useful because humans today have the same reactions as the ones 600 years ago. We still share the same fears and instinctive reflexes and the principles of war have not changed, only the means by which we engage in war.
So if you want to practice the best martial art first of all you must be prepared to do a lot of hard physical training (did you ever see a warrior with an overweight of 50 pounds?) to prepare your body. Next explore your fears and instinctive reactions and adapt or change them to fit your needs as a warrior so you will be able to use them in true combat and finally learn to understand your opponent so you can use his fears and instinctive reactions against him.
This will give you the best martial art.

Birds are warm-blooded, egg-laying, vertebrate animals. They are covered in feathers and their forelimbs are modified into wings which are used for flight. Their feathers are highly protective against cold and also against water. Birds have adapted for flight with their bones being made up of a honeycomb structure so as to reduce their structural weight. They also have acute eyesight and hearing but little sense of smell. Most birds are diurnal (only active during the day) although some have become specifically adapted to a nocturnal lifestyle (only active during the night).
Depending upon the species, birds feed on a variety of food sources; nectar, seeds, insects, rodents, fish and even on other birds however all have specific adaptations to aid in their individual feeding technique. Most birds build a nest in which they lay their eggs, although there are a few that actually lay their eggs in other birds' nests so as to 'trick' the other birds into raising their young (Cuckoos)! Eggs, like birds, vary in colour, size and shape.
