Official: 2009 Bmw X5 E70 by Hartge
HARTGE is aiming for elegant and tasteful styling as opposed to extravagance in its version of the X5 xDrive35d. The car's exterior is composed of clear lines. Right away, a glance at the model gives an impression of harmony, from the front spoiler, the diffuser-like rear skirt and the two-part side sills in PUR-RIM. The car also comes with a ABE homologation (Allgemeine Betriebserlaubnis - ABE).
The X5 does not look like a SUV due to the HARTGE sports spring set with level control system for the rear axle, which lowers the vehicle by up to 30 mm.
Adding to this impression is the set of 'BRILLANT CLASSIC 2' wheels. These 22-inch rims for ultra-wide tires - 295/30 ZR 22 at the front and 335/25 ZR 22 at the rear - are the ideal match for the sporting four-wheel drive car with appropriate HARTGE emblems.Read the entire article Official: 2009 Bmw X5 E70 by Hartge
Extensive M Performance Parts will be available at launch of the BMW X5 (G05)
BMW will launch the fourth generation of its X5 SUV to the global market in March 2019. Its high-performance version, the X5 M, would follow but that would take some time. As there would be customers who want their new X5 looks sportier than usual, BMW is allowing them to dress up their SUVs in M style through M Performance Parts.
Just in time for the global launch of the new X5 (05), BMW will be offering an extensive range of M Performance Parts, as available through the Original BMW Accessories program. Just like any other M Performance Parts, the ones that will be available for the new X5 were developed through racing expertise of BMW M. All of these M Performance Parts have a functional purpose, such as enhancing the X5's aerodynamics or contributing to its already intelligent lightweight concept.
A number of M Performance Parts for the new X5 are made from carbon fiber, giving the SUV a more striking appearance inspired by motor racing. Most of these CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) components feature a final high-gloss polish for further depth effect.Read the entire article Extensive M Performance Parts will be available at launch of the BMW X5 (G05)
BMW is rumoured to be working on new 745e model and X5 xDrive45e hybrid
It was in February 2016 when we first saw the actual BMW 740e, and rumours quickly spread that it will have a short life cycle. But sources now say that the plug-in hybrid fullsize sedan will retire next year to give way to a new 745e. In fact, this model was just at the 2017 SEMA Show to display a wide range of M Performance parts. Hopefully, there will be a more powerful model and there will be an electric car with more range. However, so far there has been no confirmation.
Currently, the outgoing 740e comes with a turbocharged 2.0 liter four cylinder engine that produces 255 horsepower. It is then paired with an electric motor with another 111 horsepower. Overall, the electrified 7 Series can carry out a total of 322 horsepower and 369 pound-feet (500 Newton metres) of torque. When combined with the engine, the 740e develops a peak torque at 1,250 rpm. In only 5.1 seconds, the 740e can accelerate to 60 miles per hour (96 kilometers per hour) before hitting its maximum speed of 130 miles per hour (209 kilometers per hour).
While we don't expect dramatic changes, we're excited to see what the new 745e has to offer. But what we would really like to improve is the current electric range of just 14 miles provided by the 9.2 kilowatt hour lithium ion battery pack that is recharged via a standard J1772 3.7 kW plug. We anticipate that extending the range will really drum up sales for the series.Read the entire article BMW is rumoured to be working on new 745e model and X5 xDrive45e hybrid
2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e becomes an official German PHEV
At last, BMW's all-new X5 xDrive40e PHEV crossover arrived with same looks as the standard model but with a new technology that offers a low fuel consumption. According to BMW, the X5 xDrive40e uses a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 245 hp and 258 lb-ft or 350 Nm of torque, as well as an electric motor that generates an additional 113 hp (83 kW) and 184 lb-ft (250 Nm) of torque.
The total output delivered by the hybrid powertrain is 313 hp (230 kW) and 332 lb-ft (450 Nm) of torque. The vehicle is able to hit 100 km/h (62 mph) in 6.8 seconds, while top speed is electronically limited at 130 mph or 210 km/h. Using just the electric motor and the energy stored in the 9 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, the X5 xDrive40e has a top speed of 75 mph (120 km/h), while the all-electric range is up to 19 miles or 31 km.
The battery can be fully recharged in 3 hours and 50 minutes when using a regular household and in just 2 hours and 45 minutes when using the optional BMW I Wallbox. The engine is bolted to an 8-speed Steptronic gearbox, average fuel consumption is 3.3 – 3.4 l/100 km (83.1 – 85.6 UK mpg or 69.1 – 71.2 US mpg), while CO2 emissions are just 78 grams per km.Read the entire article 2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e becomes an official German PHEV

Not impressed by the looks of your brand new 2014 BMW X5 (F15)? Then you probably need to take a look at the new wide body kit unveiled by Hamann, the well-known tuning company.
As you can see from the photos, the BMW X5 gets a completely new look thanks to the new body kit consisting of a front bumper with integrated LED daytime running leds, side sills, front fenders, enlarged front and rear wheel arches, a rear roof spoiler and a redesigned rear bumper with integrated exhaust system and air diffuser.
The design is completed by the new multi-spoke wheels offered in any colour you want to. There are no details regarding any engine upgrades, which means you will have to stick with the 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel engine offered on the X5 M50d that comes with three-stage turbocharging and common rail direct injection.Read the entire article 2014 BMW X5 gets a widebody kit from Hamann

For the 2014 New York International Auto Show, BMW came back with an updated version of the Concept X5 eDrive that previews the hybrid version of the X5.

BMW is introducing a new version of its BMW X5 sports utility vehicle as it tries to come back from the defeat of the model from the hands of the Mercedes-Benz M class in 2012. The X5, which is called "The Boss" within BMW due to its strong global sales and huge profit margins, will come in a version that features advanced technology – it can drive itself during traffic jams and can avoid people or animals in the dark through its night vision feature.
"We want to get back to the top with the X5," remarked Herbert Diess, development chief for BMW. SUVs have become a crucial arena where BMW is trying to repulse strong challenges posed by Audi and Mercedes-Benz. The increasing global demand for SUVs has caused IHS Automotive to forecast a 41-percent growth in sales from 2012 through 2018 to 18.6 million vehicles.
HIS even forecast the X5 to overtake the M class in 2014. Mercedes, however, will not just sit idly and watch BMW take the initiative as it targets the lower end of the luxury SUV market with its new GLA compact, aimed at the aging BMW X1.Read the entire article BMW bids to get back with new version of X5 SUV and defeat Mercedes-Benz

So what are you waiting for? Get in touch with us today to discuss how we can assist you in your journey!
Home & Investment Loans
When you've been through it all before, you probably have a pretty good idea of what a headache organising your home loan can be.
A common scenario I come across is when a client wants to keep their existing home and buy a new one. The idea being they will rent out the existing property and this will become an investment property.
Here are the common themes to this scenario and they deserve careful consideration before making a decision either way:-
- If you borrow money using the equity in your current property to purchase a new home, then you will need to borrow the full purchase price plus all associated costs (unless you have other cash to contribute). i.e. you will be borrowing 105% of the purchase price as a guide (allowing 5% for costs). The loan remaining on the existing property becomes tax deductible once that property becomes an investment property as is rented out.
- The new mortgage, which is not tax deductible for example, would be $630k assuming a $600k purchase. You are left paying the higher debt from your post tax income, whilst the smaller debt left on the investment property becomes deductible (assuming you have reduced your mortgage
- Ideally you would want to have this situation the other way round, with the higher debt on the investment property. It comes down to cashflow. When you sell, you have the cash to put towards the new home, taking a smaller non-deductible loan and thereby reducing your loan repayments. You will then have the option of putting the remaining equity into another investment, which then all the costs i.e. 105% of the new purchase would be classified as deductible or 'good debt'.
- Good debt simply means you are making more money that you are paying and using leverage to increase your wealth.
Refinancing & Debt Consolidation
There are many reasons to review your home loans and see how you can save thousands over a longer term. The mortgage market is very competitive at the moment – do you know what your interest rate is? When was the last time you took the time to review your current home loan? Did you know that most people are too busy with their personal lives to spend time reviewing their loan? This is a great time to look at many innovative options and competitive interest rates being offered in New Farm.
Maybe your personal situation has changed and you need to consolidate your high interest personal debt that is weighing you down, to a lower interest repayment.
I have multiple lenders competing for your business so it's a great way to ensure the best rate for your personal situation.

Burn Baby Burn! In Team Fortress Classic the Pyro was a class that was almost exclusively played by pyromaniac fans. Totally disregarded in clan gaming he has experienced a true renaissance and great appreciation in Team Fortress 2. Thanks to increased primary weapon damage the Pyro has become the number one short range player class in the TF2 clan lineup and an expert in high-impact ambush.
The Pyro wears a fire-retardant suit and a gas mask that muffles his voice. Endowed with a high movement speed he is able to quickly advance to the enemy. Due to the fact that his primary weapon is effective at short range only, he should concentrate on confined spaces such as narrow winding corridors and hide behind objects when out in the open. With an update the flamethrower got an new ability.
The pyro is able to produce a blast of compressed air that knocks enemies away, and redirects enemy projectiles like rockets, grenades, arrows, flar-gun shoots and jarate. With another update he got the capability to extinct burning team members.

Your friends (enemies) will squeal with delight (be consumed with fire) when you cover them in sparkly rainbows (all-consuming fire). (Equips Pyrovision.)
Festive Flame Thrower
Festive weapons are default weapons that are wrapped with Christmas lights.
The color of the lights differ between RED and BLU teams, RED team has red, yellow and green lights whereas BLU has blue, yellow and green lights. These weapons can be obtained by unlocking a Naughty Christmas Crate.
The weapons were added in the Australian Christmas 2011 update.
- All fire damage charges 'Mmmph', activate to refill health and crit for several seconds
- No airblast
- No random critical hits
- -10% damage penalty
Being a revolutionary appliance capable of awakening the fire element phlogiston that exists in all combustible creatures, which is to say, all of them.
- 100% critical hits from behind
- +150% airblast cost
The Backburner is one of the three new weapons added with the Pyro Update. The weapon becomes available after unlocking 15 Pyro Achievements, thus reaching the "Pyro Milestone 2".
The weapon works in the same way the Flamethrower: it uses fire to deal damage and set enemies on fire. As the name implies, it will cause critical damage whenever a player hits an enemy on his or her "back".
- Damage per second (point blank): 134.6 - 198
- Damage per second (medium range): 118.8 - 158.4
- Damage per second (long range): 79.2 - 99
- Mini-crit damage: 1.35x more damage
- Critical damage: 3x more damage
Welcome to hell! Although the Flamethrower only has a reach of 2 meters, it causes great damage to enemies and can kill them within seconds depending on the targets distance and HP. Should the Pyro even manage to get amidst a group of enemies, he can unleash pure mayhem on them by setting multiple players ablaze with a single quick sweep. Once afire, enemies lose 3 HP per second and continue to burn for quite a long period of time if not healed. This allows the Pyro to even score kills while he already initiates his next barbeque somewhere else on the map. With the secondary function of the flamethrower, the pyro is able to produce a blast of compressed air that knocks enemies away, and redirects enemy projectiles. He also can use it to extinguish teammates.
- 65% faster weapon switch
- -25% burn damage penalty
- -10% damage penalty
This, made-out-of-trash-like Flamethrower replaces you normal Flamethrower. It impresses with its Skin, the sound of burning someone and the ability to switch weapons quickly.

The Shotgun is the secondary fire weapon for the Pyro, the Soldier and the Heavy Guy. The Shotgun is most effective when used against fast player classes or if an enemy only needs one last quick blow to be dispatched.

- Flare knocks back target on hitand ignites enemies in a small radius
- 50% damage penalty
- Does not require ammo
- Projectile cannot be deflected
- Gives one guaranteed critical hit for eachteammate extinguished by this weapon

- +25% damage to self
Alt-Fire: Detonate flare.
The Detonator is a secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is a Flare Gun with an elongated barrel taped in place, an extra curved sight and spiral paint designs on the chamber.
Similar to the Flare Gun, the weapon fires projectiles which, upon contact with an enemy, with deal slight damage as well as set them alight. Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire, Mini-Crit damage will be inflicted (instead of the full Crit damage that the normal Flare Gun inflicts), and the target's afterburn duration will be reset.
The weapon's main ability is its eponymous detonate ability. Pressing secondary fire whilst a flare is in flight will cause it to explode, creating a small blast radius which damages and ignites nearby enemy players within range.
The knockback from the explosion can also be used to Flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping. However, Pyros wielding the Detonator will suffer an additional 25% damage taken from their own explosive weapons.
The Detonator was previously tested in the Team Fortress 2 Beta.
Flare Gun
- Damage: 27 - 33
- Mini-crit damage (on burning enemies only): 41
- * Critical damage: 90
- minicrit vs burning player
The Flare Gun is one of the three new weapons added with the Pyro Update. The weapon becomes available after unlocking 10 Pyro Achievements, thus reaching the "Pyro Milestone 1".
The weapon fires flares who not only deal damage to an enemy when hit, but also ignite them. That allows the Pyro to deal with enemies from a distance, most notably against Snipers and Engineers.

It is an uprooted road sign, with a worn sheet of paper bearing the Team Fortress 2 logo nailed onto the front; the image can be replaced with another by using the Decal Tool. The sign itself is ridden with nails, battered, bloodstained, and slightly crooked.
This item functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon.

Postal Pummeler
- 100% critical hit vs burning players
- 50% damage vs non-burning players
- No critical hits vs non-burning players

When wielded, the Homewrecker deals double damage to an enemy Engineer's Buildings and can remove enemy Sappers in one hit, but deals 25% less damage to players.

- Mini-Crit Damage: 45
- Crit-Damage: 195
- 100% critical hits vs burning players

The Axtinguisher is one of the three new weapons added with the Pyro Update. The weapon becomes available after unlocking 22 Pyro Achievements, thus reaching the \\\"Pyro Milestone 3\\\".
The weapon only deals half the damage the normal Fire axe does, but in exchange it will do the full critical damage when hitting an enemy who has been set on fire.
- Damage: 59 - 72
- Mini-Crit: 88
- Crit-Damage: 195
The Pyro got this weapon from the fire station and wields it with great expertise on the Team Fortress 2 maps. Sometimes he confuses it with a guitar but if he puts it to its correct use he does a lot of damage. The Fire Axe represents a worthwhile alternative to setting enemies ablaze with the Flamethrower. Nevertheless it is relatively seldom used because it is not as effective and versatile in melee combat as the Flamethrower.
- Damage: 72 - 93
- Minicrit-Damage: 119
- Crti-Damage: 244
- +25% damage done
- +75 health restored on kill
- No random critical hits
As a part of the Gas Jockey's Gear kit, this car battery on a stick replaces you Fireaxe. The big Damageoutput of this Weapon combined with the 75 bonus Healthpoints on a kill, make this weapon to a deadly must-have for Pyro players.

It's a well-known fact that we only use 10% of our brain power. Which means there's a 90% chance that anything you do to your brain is only going to make you smarter. Like letting it float around in plutonium. Let's be honest, doing nothing isn't making you any smarter.

Project Update (August 2019): This project has now produced and published a discussion guide: "Mental Health Matters: Promoting Good Mental Health in our Communities." You can download a PDF copy (16 pages/1.1 MB) of this discussion guide by clicking on either the text link above or the blue button on the right sidebar. You can also view it online at the Issuu website.
This is a unique discussion project for IF, in that we have collaborated with the parents of a young man who was shot and killed in a mall rampage shooting in Columbia, MD, back in January 2014. The young man who was killed (Tyler) was one of two young people killed before the gunman took his own life. The shooter was only 18 and was most likely in the early stages of schizophrenia; he had actually tried to seek mental health care, but to no avail. Tyler's father did an interview on a local news station, and I was struck by his poise and compassion. I'd never seen a parent in such a horrible situation exhibit such genuine empathy towards the shooter and his family.
It turns out that Tyler, who was just 25 when he was killed, had spent three years sober after overcoming addiction challenges. He got sober once he made the connection for himself between his addiction issues and his own mental health state (he was manic depressive). He had spent the three years before his death helping others to make the same connection between mental health and addiction so that they, too, could overcome their drug/alcohol dependencies. The number of lives he touched surprised even his parents, who were moved by the many stories of the connections and healing Tyler had put out into the world around him.
Tyler's parents have a strong desire to carry on Tyler's work by helping citizens to become more aware of their own and others' mental health—and of the importance of good mental health, more generally. They are generally interested in creating a space to explore these issues in meaningful ways. Violence is so rampant in American society, and, too often, efforts to discuss ways to curtail it become confounded by important debates over guns and gun restrictions. Meantime, underlying mental health factors—which also must be discussed if we are to reduce the frequency and impact of these events–rarely get seriously explored. We hope to begin to alter that narrative by providing the interesting array of possibilities in this discussion guide for exploration within communities of varying sizes and locations. Very few American communities have been untouched by sudden eruptions of violence in a public space.
IF's discussion guide on depression is by far the least discussed of any of our discussion guides. This likely reflects the stigma associated with mental health conditions. What's interesting, however, is that when that discussion guide is discussed, the quality and meaningfulness of the discussion to its participants is marked. We hope that your group's exploration of the ideas and possibilities in this discussion guide will better inform your participants about things that they and/or their family members may be facing without even realizing it and about how to find and create the resources and support that will help to stave off the sorts of mental health disasters that too-often erupt within our communities.

I was lucky enough to have a meeting with a consultant on behalf of Rowland's Pharmacy a few months ago. It is definitely the time of year for flus, viruses and bugs so I will share the info I received.
Below are medical conditions that pregnant mummies, regular mummies and babies may suffer from.
Remember this document is only a guideline (im just a first time mum winging my way through motherhood) and you should speak to your doctor for medical advice and emergencies.
First priority if you are going to become a mummy is to stop smoking. It is the most important change you can make to improve your health and the health of your unborn baby. Try to give up with willpower alone and ask friends and family to support you. Stopping smoking may cause the need to eat more but then so does pregnancy. Remember to try and stick to a good clean diet. Nicorette gum, patches and spray have proven to cause a stir as they still contain nicotine. I think a visit to your GP for guidance is definitely recommended.
URGH!!! And it does not get any easier. Ok so pregnancy is another form of sleep deprivation. You are unable to sleep because you cannot get comfy, you are having hot flushes, you are constantly peeing. And this is all before your little bundle of joy has even entered the world. Here are some tips for easy sleeping…..
Prepare yourself for sleep. Be tired and relax before you go to bed. Leave enough time before work and sleep. During pregnancy my partner used to walk with me around the block before bed. This was a great form of exercise too and the fresh air cleared my mind. A nice soak in a hot bath always helped. My partner was the best bubble bath maker! Have a milky drink as your last drink of the night. No coffee when pregnant anyway! And although I am not a tea drinker I did down quite a few mugs of raspberry leaf tea during the last few weeks of my pregnancy. I know it can only be drunk at a certain stage in your third trimester so please do your research before trying. Another sensible bit of advice from the rep today was to reserve the bedroom for rest and relaxation. Never to do work or mentally challenging tasks in there. I clearly haven't taken his advice as I am typing up this article in bed.
Luckily I have never suffered from indigestion. Indigestion in pregnancy is partly caused by hormonal changes, and in later pregnancy by the growing womb pressing on your stomach. You can help ease the discomfort of indigestion and heartburn by making changes to your diet and lifestyle, and there are treatments that are safe to take in pregnancy.
Major concern before during and after pregnancy for me. I do not know what Olivia did to my insides but she sure did a great job of messing up my system. Drink more fluids especially water, if you hate water than lemon barley juice is good during pregnancy. Eat more fiber which is found in fruit, vegetables and wholemeal foods. I used to love to eat malt loaf! Regular exercise improves bowel habits. Swimming and walking are probably your only options right now. Relaxing in a hot bath may help you to go. Laxatives are a big NO NO whilst pregnant but if you suffer badly then see the doc. Mine prescribed me FYBOGEL. It was an orange flavored powdered drink.
What a pain. For some reason when I was expecting I kept on getting cold sores. They were horrible and sore. This really interfered with my day job as a maternity model. Creams such as zovirax and blistex were just not doing the trick. I went to visit my GP and he prescribed me a pill. A special low dosage medication. I have these now on repeat prescription just in case but luckily since Olivia has been born I have been cold sore free.
Colic is a broad term referring to uncontrollable, extended bouts of crying in a baby who is otherwise well-fed and healthy. It usually occurs in babies from 2 weeks old and lasts up to 3 or 4 months. Babies with colic look uncomfortable and may lift their legs or become red in the face. Colic is not a serious condition but is distressing to the family and can be relieved and sometimes prevented with colic medication.
I am eager to do a feature on this subject as this is something we experienced ourselves with our little girl. Olivia had colic from about 3 months old. It was a nightmare. Horrible, stressful and very upsetting for us all. There are many diagnoses for colic and it is believed to be trapped wind. Ok trapped wind doesn't sound too dreadful but for a tiny baby it can be torture. I suggest you do your own research about colic and if you think this is something your baby is suffering from you can talk to your health visitor. Olivia used to cry at the same time every evening for hours. Nothing would settle her. No amount of rubbing, burping, hugging, rocking, kissing would stop her from crying and it was a very heart-breaking experience. We had to take it in turns to walk her around the block in her buggy. I used INFACOL in her milk but this didn't seem to help. A friend of mine then suggested I try colief. WOW! After a few days of trying these little drops my baby had returned back to her calm and content little self. There is something in the formula drops that break down the sugars in the baby's milk making it easier to digest. It is time consuming having to add the drops and leave them to dissolve and settle into the made up bottle but believe me after experiencing colic I would have done anything to make my baby more comfortable. Also another downside to these drops is that they are extremely pricey. Over eleven pound a bottle. Again I would have paid anything, begged or borrowed. Luckily I did get them on prescription for a while so it is worth asking your doctor. Personally I do think doctors are a little unclear when it comes to colic so be firm and demand!
Oh dear from the dregs of this article it sounds like my baby has had everything, she is actually very well and healthy.
Eczema is a condition that causes the skin to become inflamed (red), sore and itchy. It may be dry or it can weep. Eczema often runs in families, but many children do grow out of it. In some cases, eczema can cause much disruption to the daily routine.
I think I caught Olivia's eczema before it got too bad. I noticed her skin was dry so the pharmacist recommended a cream called oilatum. I then realised I could get it on prescription and now have a nice big tub which I rub over Olivia's skin daily after the bath.
I know this only too well. Olivia has had four top teeth pop through this week at 11 months old.
Baby teeth erupt continually from the age of 6 months to 3 years. A suitable teething gel such as bonjela will ease the pain. You can actually get baby bonjela especially for teething. You can buy teething rings or a fellow mummy suggested a cold flannel from the freezer would do the trick. Olivia has been trying to suck her thumb a lot recently so I guess this is soothing. We love Calpol! And lots of dribble bibs with plastic backs.
If your baby is still less than 3 months old try not to mistake colic for teething.
When Olivia was a tiny baby she did have a little reaction to a specific brand of nappy. Instead of using water to clean her niki naki bits I used baby oil. This seemed to work for us and kept her comfortable around her bottom area. I am not a big fan of sudo cream as I found it did not improve her rash at all, however it does come in handy for little scratches etc.
I tried as often as I could to leave her nappy off and let the skin air.
My cousin suggested I invest in a tube of Bepanthen cream and I use it every day now. Love the stuff! I also burnt myself whilst cooking recently and the magic creamed soothed my wound!
Have you any hints or medical tips?

For Immediate Release: March 19, 2007
Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, Chromos Molecular Systems Inc. ("Chromos") (TSX:CHR) announced today corporate developments related to its lead product candidate, CHR-1103, its convertible bridge loan and its Board of Directors.
Proposed CHR-1103 Collaboration
Chromos announced a non-binding term sheet with a U.S.-based biotechnology company under which it will enter into a collaboration agreement to co-develop its lead product, CHR-1103. Under the proposed collaboration, the U.S. biotechnology company will pay to Chromos US$3,000,000 upon execution of definitive agreements as well as additional future milestone payments. The partner company will assume the funding for a significant majority of the development expenses for the CHR-1103 program. Based on this expense funding ratio, the parties will share proportionately revenues related to the commercialization of CHR-1103, including all clinical indications. No other financial terms were disclosed. The transaction is subject to completion of final due diligence and execution of definitive agreements, which is expected to take place in April 2007.
"The formation of this collaboration will provide Chromos with a co-development partner for CHR-1103 that is led by a seasoned leadership team with the financial resources to assist driving this product through clinical development," said Alistair Duncan, President and CEO of Chromos. "This collaboration will also allow us to mitigate risk in the development of our first therapeutic product candidate and to maintain our focus on continuing to grow our cell line engineering business utilizing our proprietary ACE System."
CHR-1103 is a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against VLA-2, an integrin involved in maintenance of inflammation. In preclinical studies, it has been demonstrated that anti-VLA2 therapy reduces clinical signs of inflammation in animal models of multiple sclerosis (MS), inflammatory bowel disease and arthritis. The initial focus CHR-1103 is the acute treatment of relapse in MS. It is anticipated that an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for CHR-1103 will be filed at the beginning of 2008.
Amendments to the Terms of the Convertible Bridge Loan
Chromos has increased the convertible bridge loan financing arrangement that was previously announced on October 20, 2006 by $150,000 to $2,150,000. The additional proceeds of the loan will be used to fund operations of Chromos as it seeks to complete the proposed CHR-1103 collaboration and to raise additional financing.
In addition, for the promissory notes issued under the bridge loan, effective anytime after March 29, 2007 the note holders may demand repayment of the notes together with any accrued interest on one days' notice. This is a reduction in the notice period from the previous 10 days notice. In addition, if Chromos does not provide, on or before March 21, 2007, evidence to the satisfaction of the note holders that an equity financing is being arranged for a specified minimum size with a portion of the proceeds being used to repay the notes, then the notes will become immediately due and payable. The Company is actively pursuing an equity financing that is intended to provide the required evidence. The note holders, who are also significant common shareholders of the Chromos, have assured the Company of their endorsement for both a successful equity financing outcome and the proposed CHR-1103 collaboration. The conversion feature for the bridge loan has also been amended so that it is at the option of the note holders.
Chromos' current funds on hand, anticipated revenues from existing contractual agreements and the $150,000 of additional funds available from the bridge loan financing are expected to be sufficient to fund its operations until approximately the end of April of 2007. This assumes that in the interim the note holders of the bridge loan have not otherwise demanded repayment, in accordance with their rights as noted above, in which case Chromos would have insufficient funds to satisfy repayment requirements. There can be no assurance that Chromos will be able to complete the proposed CHR-1103 collaboration transaction or that additional financing will be available at all or on acceptable terms to permit Chromos' current operations to continue. If Chromos is unsuccessful in raising additional financing it may be required to scale back or terminate certain or all of its operations.
Director Resignation
Chromos also announced that Mr. David Barr has resigned from its Board of Directors. Mr. Barr is CFO and Investment Manager of PenderFund Capital Management Ltd. which manages funds that are holders of a portion of the convertible, secured promissory notes. Mr. Barr indicated that he tendered his resignation as a director to avoid any potential conflict of interest created by PenderFund's ownership position of the convertible bridge loan referred to above.
This resignation brings the number of directors on the Board to four.

Forget the drive thru, this is how to make a beef tacos recipe that tastes just like Taco Bell tacos for an easy Taco Tuesday dinner at home any night of the week.
You Quiero Taco Bell Tacos
"So, where did you have lunch today?"
It's pretty much the same question I ask my husband every day. I mean, there's only so much stimulating conversation to be had when documenting our day to day after all these years of marriage. And pretty much every day for the past 20 years he has the same answer. "Taco Bell." If he was a guy who was into tattoos, it's likely he'd have, "Yo quiero Taco Bell" emblazoned somewhere on his body.
And I have to say, I can't blame the man for loving his tacos, because say what you will about fast food—I'm not much of a fan—but Taco Bell tacos are pretty much the cat's meow when it comes to drive thru Mexican food.
I blame my mother in law for creating my man's Taco Bell taco obsession. Because my MIL makes the best homemade beef tacos ever, and while it took me a while to realize it, one of the reasons they are so good is because they taste eerily similar to the beloved Taco ala Bell.
Years ago I ditched my own taco recipe in favor of hers, and today I'm finally sharing the secrets to these homemade tacos that make them taste so good they could very well curb your drive thru habit too.

A Consulate General in San Francisco, a chancery annex in Washington, D.C., and a consular annex in New York City are being closed as of tomorrow.
This leaves 3 consulates for each country, this limited measure achieves parity in the number of consulates for each country.
Russia should not complain, all this does is put both the US and Russia on equal footing. There is no overreaction and no inequities.
What should be interesting is Russia's response. Newly-appointed Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov arrived in Washington DC this morning.
Talk about a tough first day on the job.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov does not see this as parity, instead calling it an escalation.
The secretary of state Rex Tillerson spoke to his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, in a phone call on Thursday. Lavrov said Moscow "regrets an escalation of tension not initiated by Russia", according to the state-run RT news channel. A senior US administration official said the call was "professional" and that Lavrov "agreed to the sentiment that it was important to find a way to improve our relations". – US orders Russia to close consulate and annexes in diplomatic reprisal
Russian President Putin, through his spokesman, Peskov, says,
"We regret the unconstructive stance taken by our counterparts in the United States and, of course, we cannot afford to leave unfriendly, and sometimes hostile steps towards us without retaliation," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday, according to state-run media. – Putin promises retaliation in growing diplomatic feud with US
It seems Russia does not understand the concept of equality, it's all about flat out winning, it seems.
This latest move deeply hurts Russia deeply as they desperately need to build trade to help their economy.
</end editorial>
Achieving Parity in Diplomatic Missions
Press Statement
Department Spokesperson
The United States has fully implemented the decision by the Government of the Russian Federation to reduce the size of our mission in Russia. We believe this action was unwarranted and detrimental to the overall relationship between our countries.
In the spirit of parity invoked by the Russians, we are requiring the Russian Government to close its Consulate General in San Francisco, a chancery annex in Washington, D.C., and a consular annex in New York City. These closures will need to be accomplished by September 2.
With this action both countries will remain with three consulates each. While there will continue to be a disparity in the number of diplomatic and consular annexes, we have chosen to allow the Russian Government to maintain some of its annexes in an effort to arrest the downward spiral in our relationship.
The United States hopes that, having moved toward the Russian Federation's desire for parity, we can avoid further retaliatory actions by both sides and move forward to achieve the stated goal of both of our presidents: improved relations between our two countries and increased cooperation on areas of mutual concern. The United States is prepared to take further action as necessary and as warranted.

Increasing Focus on Medical Tourism Improves MRI Market Prospects in Egypt, Finds Frost & Sullivan
27 Jun, 2013, 09:35 BST
- Adoption of partnership models crucial as need for standardisation heightens
LONDON, June 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The use of state-of-the-art medical imaging devices in the private sector to attract medical tourism has steadied the growth of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) market in Egypt. Although slow political transition will limit demand in the short-to-medium term, the market will be sustained by replacements. Once the political situation eases, procurement backlogs will boost sale volumes.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.medtech.frost.com), Analysis of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Market in Egypt, finds that the market earned revenues of $35 million in 2012 and estimates this to reach $66.7 million in 2019 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The research covers low-field, high-field, and ultra-high-field MRI systems.
"Egypt has a high concentration of private radiology practices that utilise latest technology and high-end MRI equipment as a strategy to stay ahead of the competition," says Frost & Sullivan Healthcare Research Analyst Kudzai Moyo. "The use of high-field systems, in particular, will increase owing to their ability to facilitate multiple, non-invasive examinations and generate large amounts of information."
The focus on medical tourism will further encourage private healthcare institutions in the country to adopt large-scale, high-end clinical care. Private hospitals are looking to upgrade their radiology facilities to offer highly efficient and reliable healthcare services, allowing them to compete with other countries in the region, whilst expanding market potential.
Current MRI market revenues are however low, as several private hospitals await the political transition in Egypt before proceeding with their investments. Similarly, uptake in the public sector is likely to be subdued in the short-to-medium term, as the state budget for healthcare remains limited. Nevertheless, the long-term impact of this restraint will reduce as pressure groups advocate for a budget increase.
"In this competitive landscape, forming alliances with government entities and private businesses will assist MRI equipment manufacturers to secure healthcare project contracts in Egypt," reveals Frost & Sullivan Healthcare Research Analyst Shalena Naidoo. "Partnerships will also enable the standardisation of medical imaging modalities, which is a key criteria for end users."

Best way of preserving giant puffball please
A mate of mine has just returned from a garden job with the largest puffball I've seen. There are two more still there to collect & way to much to eat fresh.
Never been lucky enough to find one in an edible condition yet, but a quick wizz on google gave me this recipe and the suggestion that it can be cubed or sliced and part prepared then frozen:
"Puffball Schnitzel
Great thanks to Johan Runeberg, webmaster of Hven.com, for suggesting cooking jätteröksvamp (Swedish for giant puffballs) just like schnitzel. He said that cooked that way it was his favorite fungal "taste-teaser" apart from chanterelles which are not found on the Scandanavian island of Hven where he lives. During the annual foray of the Arizona Mushroom Club I tried this out along with Scott Bates, webmaster of their site, and we both agreed it was simple yet delicious. I look forward to finding some more puffballs so I can have it again.
Johan Runeberg indicates you can fry up the "schnitzels" most of the way and freeze them. Then when you thaw and finish cooking them the rest of the way they are just as good as if they were never frozen he says.
If I ever have any left over I may try this. So far I have not had to deal with that problem.
Serves 2
1 small giant puffball (any edible species), about the size of a softball, or part of a larger one, sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
salt and pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten
oil for frying
1 lemon, sliced
Mix breadcrumbs with cheese (if used) along with thyme, salt and pepper and spread on a plate or large bowl. Heat oil for frying in a large skillet. Dip puffball slices in beaten egg coating all sides and then coat entirely with seasoned breadcrumbs"
Make loads of soup and freeze it or mushroom quiches and freeze............in fact any mushroom based dish and freeze.Sense a theme here? I dry horse mushrooms etc , but not sure how puffballs fair when dried? Cab will know!
easyist way mate acorrding to loads of sites is to bread crum them after sliceing in to 1 inch or two ince slices then fry them in some nice bacon fat or goose fat then they can be freezed and the hold up very well that way thats what i did and it was lovly
Dried puffball is a GREAT ingredient, but you need to dry them carefully.
If the puffball is young and firm, it dries easily; slice thin, dry the slices in a warm airing cupboard or in a dehydrator. If its older then do it in a luke warm oven or in the dehydrator. For any giant puffball, dry it
, or it'll over-ripen and then its useless and borderline toxic.
With older specimens what you get is a sort of crumbly, powdery stuff that is fantastic almost as a mushroom stock. With younger ones you get thin white slices, just as useful.
Freezing, well, I've never found that the frozen bits (pre fried and frozen) were as appealing as fresh slices, but if you must then go for it. I'd rather cook a stew with puffball in it and freeze that.
I've found I (and friends) don't like the taste of puffball soup - so test it before making lots!
Like Naomi I'd recommend dishes with mushroom in ...I've pizzas and quiches in the freezer from our last puffball find. Fry it up first in garlic or however and then put it in/ on.
Or just fry them and freeze and decide later what dish to put them in.
Nice problem to have!
