Things You Can't Stand During a Juice Cleanse
After traipsing around France and Italy for a few weeks and literally eating everything in sight (I mean everything. I had to take breaks during dinner to make sure I could get through all four courses and there was a mandatory 4pm Gelato Hour), I decided I needed to give my body a little break and avoid my walk being permanently dubbed the "high caloric crawl". I did what any normal person would do, and immediately started a raw food diet in preparation for a three day juice cleanse. I know there a lot of people who did this sort of thing. But these are likely the type of people who also enjoy going to the gym and include "running a marathon" on their list of things to accomplish. I am not one of those people and I complained the entire three days I was drinking my way towards a healthier self. Here's what I discovered: things that normally don't phase you during a day become really fucking irritating. This is what I mean: Read the rest of this entry
The NYC Girl's Diet
My eating habits suck. I have apples, tofu and old soy milk in my refrigerator. Most days, I'm just hoping the Brita is full. It's not easy being an NYC girl, let me tell you. I get take-out sometimes, but more often I go out to eat because I'm never home. Since I've moved into my own place I've found my eating habits are even more deplorable. This also ties in with the fact that it's Q4 which is historically what I refer to as "crazy quarter" at work, so I'm running around like a lunatic. I've become what I call "accidentally anorexic" some days. It's a combination of forgetting to eat coupled with being too lazy to go and get food along with preferring to consume a liquid dinner.
I recently discovered I'm getting quite a few hits to this little blog (who knew?) and I'm guessing you all don't live in this glorious city and might be wondering about the life one lives here. So let's start with a little walk-through of the diet any true NYC girl is likely to be following (this is assuming she's actually consuming anything, which can't be guaranteed).

An F'in Weekend
I love when you have a good week that's capped off by an amazing weekend. And that's what this week/ weekend was all about. After an incredibly successful Likeable U (including client day, Dave Kerpen's book launch party, and other bits of awesomeness), I had a packed weekend which involved celebrating not one but two birthdays. As I sit back and reflect on another weekend over and done with, I see a common thread emerge in this weekend's success story. Today's blog is brought to you by the letter "F" – behold:
Friends: Because of our insane lives, travel schedules, and varying social calendars, it's been WEEKS since I've hit the town with my friends here in NYC. It was a long time coming, and we had a special occasion to celebrate: a 26th birthday. Not to be outdone by the events that unfolded during my 3-day birthday extravaganza (which may literally be the last time we all went out together), Beryl's birthday involved a swanky rooftop, Grey Goose bottle service, an epic dance party and what can only be categorized as Geneseo/IB-like shenanigans. I also may or may not have yelled at a bartender for not serving the Patron chilled. I mean, really… Read the rest of this entry
$19 for a Pitcher of Awesome
File under: shenanigans (no really, I'll make a category and this post will live there).
I just had a great dinner and catch up session with a good friend I haven't seen in a while. It got me thinking (the $19 pitcher of Sangria also got me thinking) of how you can find and make friends with people you never would have imagined you'd be friends with. I guess this is the joy of working at a start up company.
Allow me to elaborate (and this is my blog, so I'm supposed to elaborate, ok?). 18 months ago I started working at a company with 3 full time employees in NYC (here, here and here), 1 in Boston, a couple of part-timers (here and here) and a pair of the hardest working co-founders I've ever seen (here and here). You weren't hired because you'd be best friends with everyone. You were hired because you were smart, you were driven and you were passionate about social media. If anyone out there has ever worked at a start-up, you know that the people working beside you aren't just your co-workers, they're soldiers fighting in the same battle you're fighting. You don't really consider being friends, you just somehow become family. Read the rest of this entry

Alan Liere's fishing-hunting report for Oct. 11
UPDATED: Wed., Oct. 10, 2018
Fly fishing
Good fall fly fishing continues on the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River as well as the St. Joe and the Spokane. Fall hatches of October caddis, mahoganies, BWOs and midges will get fish up during midday hours. Nymphing and streamers will produce throughout the day. There is no need to go way up high on the St. Joe as the middle and lower stretches are ideal. Good trout reports come from the North Fork Clearwater/Kelly Creek.
Silver Bow Fly Shop said its guides are finding a few steelhead on the Grande Ronde. The mouth is crowded with anglers.
Salmon and steelhead
To continue reduced harvest on hatchery steelhead and protect wild steelhead, Idaho Fish and Game is continuing the one-fish bag limit for steelhead until Dec. 31. The lower bag limit applies in the mainstem Clearwater River, Middle Fork Clearwater River, North Fork of the Clearwater River, South Fork Clearwater River, Snake River, Salmon River and Little Salmon River.
Vernita is still reasonably good for chinook, as is the Hanford Reach. The early morning can be good at times. As of this writing, the Reach was still open, but it could close at any time. Even if the Reach closes below Priest Rapids Dam this week, the Wanapum Pool will remain open through Monday.
Reel Time Fishing reports the catch and release season is seeing fat, chrome-bright steelhead on the Clearwater River. Catch and keep opens Monday on the Clearwater and is open on the Snake.
Trout and kokanee
Into mid-October, the best catching on Lake Coeur d'Alene kokanee is on the north end of the lake in Bennett and Wolf Creek bays. A vast majority of the kokanee migrates to that area to spawn, so the bays are loaded with mature fish.
Two friends who fished Amber Lake recently threw barbless gold Flatfish and gold Hotshots for fantastic results for trout up to 20 inches long.
Most of the lake Roosevelt trout fishing reports this week came from north of Hunters, though there was one excellent report from Hawk Creek and a decent one from Lincoln. The majority of fish were caught about 20 feet down, but some came from as deep as 60 feet. Dodgers and sling baits will improve success.
Spiny ray
The Hunters/Gifford area of Lake Roosevelt is reported to be good for walleye throughout the day. The fish are scattered, so be patient and methodically probe different depths with jigs.
Walleye fishermen on Potholes didn't have a good week, but there are lots of nice-sized bluegills to be had as well as some crappie.
Other species
The first razor clam dig of the fall season will begin today at Twin Harbor and Mocrocks. On Friday, Twin Harbor and Copalis will be open to digging. On Sunday, Twin Harbor and Mocrocks will be up again. All digs will be on evening tides. WDFW has tentatively scheduled another dig for Oct. 25-28, pending results of future toxin tests.
Washington hunters will take to the field Saturday for waterfowl. "With healthy waterfowl populations, mild temperatures and some early rainfall, it should be a strong opener," said Kyle Spragens, WDFW waterfowl manager." Mallards and Canada geese are most harvested in the region, but wood ducks that nest in the Pend Oreille, Colville and Kettle River valleys can provide some early-season hunting. The Columbia Basin is second to none in the state for opportunities for ducks with Grant County consistently Washington's top duck and goose-harvest county.
Washington goose hunters might want to focus more this year on white-fronted geese around Moses Lake, Winchester Lake and the Winchester Wasteway. In typical years there are 200-500 white-fronted geese (specklebellies) for the first few weeks of the waterfowl season. During the latter parts of the season there have been increasing numbers of snow geese around Potholes Reservoir and Moses Lake. Hunters pursuing those birds should focus efforts on the surrounding grain fields south of Interstate 90.
The Washington modern firearm deer season also begins Saturday for whitetails and mule deer. The best whitetail hunting on the East Side will be in Ferry, Stevens and Pend Oreille counties, particularly GMUs 124 and 127. Mule deer are prevalent in GMUs 101 and 121, but the best hunting will be in GMUs 136,139 and 142.
Farther north, Okanogan County is prized for its mule deer hunting, although white-tailed deer are also abundant, particularly in GMUs 204 and 215. Surveys from the last couple of years show a slight decrease in deer populations following some extreme fires, droughts and modestly difficult winters. Chelan County also traditionally has excellent mule deer hunting on public lands, but an exceptional 2015 harvest and high overwinter mortality in 2016-17 have cut the numbers. Douglas County is another good mule deer hunting area. Productivity remains consistent there, but it is dominated by private lands for which access permission must be secured.
The Columbia Basin's GMUs also produce good mule deer hunting opportunity, with most deer harvest in GMUs 272 (Beezley) and 284 (Ritzville). Given the modest escapement of bucks in 2017 and likely good recruitment of fawns, hunters should expect an average year for mule deer hunting throughout Grant and Adams counties.
Waterfowl hunts began in portions of Idaho last Saturday and others open Saturday in Area 1. Idaho hunters can expect waterfowl populations similar to last year. Alberta, Canada had favorable conditions, which is where many ducks and geese that pass through Idaho during their fall migration originate.
Idaho valley quail, chukar and grey partridge are already open. The general Idaho pheasant hunts begin Saturday or Oct. 20, depending on which part of the state you hunt. There's a map of pheasant zones on page 12 of the Idaho Upland Game brochure.
Most Idaho deer seasons began Wednesday, but there are many variances for closing dates. See the Idaho Big Game Brochure, pages 10-11 for modern firearm, page 12 for archery and page 13 for muzzle loader.

How you can legally watch your favourite TV shows for FREE without paying the licence fee
The TV licence fee is going up but there is a very simple way to free, legal TV
THE licence fee will be raised on April 1 - but TV fans could be missing a simple trick allowing them to legally watch their favourite TV shows for free, saving them £147 in licensing every year.
If you're willing to sacrifice your favourite terrestrial shows, you could be in for a big saving...
When is the TV licence fee going up and how much by?
The cost of a full-colour TV licence for 12 months is currently £147 while for a black and white set the annual cost is £49.50.
But from April 1, the cost will rise to £150.50 - which applies to anyone buying or renewing a licence after that date.
The new charges mean people will be forking out £2.89 a week - up from £2.83 - or £12.54 a month.
If you pay via a monthly or weekly plan which stared before April 1 then you'll continue paying the old fee until your licence is up for renewal.
Who doesn't have to pay for a TV licence?
Almost 3.5million Brits have cancelled their TV licence fee in the last four years — a rate of almost one million a year.
Many are snubbing the BBC in favour of streaming sites such as Netflix, statistics reveal.
You can legally watch TV without splashing out on a licence by watching On Demand TV, available through services like ITV Player, All4, My5, BT Vision, SkyGo, Now TV, Apple TV and Virgin Media.
You can also watch on demand movies from the likes of Netflix and Amazon Video, as well as watching Bly-ray or DVDs.
Some people are entitled to a free TV licence: For example if you're aged over 75 or you're a resident in a care home.
You can pay for your licence all in one go or spread the cost throughout the year using direct debit.
Watching live TV or catch-up through the BBC iPlayer on any device without a licence is a criminal offence and if you're caught, you could be fined up to £1,000.
Good news if you're from Jersey because the maximum fine there is £500.

enigma codeSoon you'll need to give the BBC your postcode to watch iPlayer as they crack down on licence fee evaders
Which On Demand services are exempt?
A licence is needed to watch or record live TV - and also to download or watch BBC programmes on demand on iPlayer.
If you want to only enjoy other on demand services like the ITV Hub, Now TV and All4 you don't need to pay anything.
You can also watch providers like Netflix and Amazon Instant Video - just steer clear of BBC iPlayer.

These are the last of our chickens. We will never buy that many (84) meat chickens at one time ever again. Even though the meat is good it was just too much work.
Susan ordered a set of lego blocks that light up. Scott absolutely loves them and has been building robots and planes and rockets. He's very creative in his designs and some are quite elaborate.
We love his imagination. Here he's sitting on an old tree stump. He put another section of rotted tree over it for a seat then pushed two other pieces on the sides to use for control handles. He spent quite awhile making robot noises as he fought bad guys while piloting his "robot." We got a kick out of the comments a couple of high school girls made one day in the store when he was playing in the cart. One looked at the other and said, "how cute, he comes with his own sound track!"
Susan canned up some soup for future use. You'll have to go to her Poverty Prepping blog for details. Here are the beginnings ...
Step two ...
And finished!
And, yes, it's very good. We had some last night.
We took a short (eleven mile) bike ride yesterday just to enjoy the fall weather. I took these photos of the green box site.
Looks like they added some electric wire since we were here last. Evidently they've had some bear problems.
We are now at Dickey Lake. Scott found a "chair" that someone carved out of a large stump with a chain saw. Scott probably sees it more as his "throne" from which he rules his kingdom.
After being in the bike seat he had lots of energy to burn and was on every rock, stump or pillar he could find.
Susan handed him the camera and asked him to take our picture. He turned it to see the shutter release and put his finger on it, then pointed it our way and took two pictures. Both were composed well. Not bad for a three-year-old. Of course he quickly handed the camera back and took off playing again.
He spent as more time playing in the water from the fountain than he did drinking from it.
We had the lake to ourselves for a short while so Scott went skinny dipping. A couple of women from New York state drove up so he got dressed and went to see them. They asked us if he wanted a float toy so we said okay. We thought it would be small but it was this one instead. Of course Scott loved it! The water was surprisingly warm for this spring fed lake. When I was camp director for the Christian Camp on the other side of the lake our kids would don their dry suits and go swimming here in the spring while there was still ice on the lake. The water wasn't a whole lot warmer in July during our youth camps.
We rescued several people from this lake every summer. A lot of macho types thought they'd swim across it since it's only about a half-mile from one side to the other (the narrow way). What they didn't realize was how the cold would get to them and most needed help before they got half the distance across. The vast majority of people are smart enough to have a boat stay alongside of them. The others often have to flag down a boat. While at the camp we watched for lone swimmers and took the boat out to escort them across the lake. To my knowledge, no one has ever made it swimming across without a wet or dry suit for heat retention.
Lake temperatures are often in the 50 to 60 F. degree range. The maximum depth is 67 feet. Somewhat shallow compared to many mountain lakes around here.
Scot went into panic mode when we began deflating the floaty until we explained that we needed to deflate it to take it home on grandpa's bicycle.
The is Murphy Lake along highway 93 below Fortine. We passed it on the way home. It has some huge pike and bass in it along with lots of perch.
Back to our starting point. We'd parked at the Fortine Mercantile since we needed to buy milk before heading home.
I finally bought a new bar and chain for one of our older saws. I did a little engine modification to this one to give it more power but the bar was worn enough that it was hard to keep the chain on it.
Back in business again!
Bacon and eggs cooked on the wood stove. The colder weather is nice for cooking on the wood stove. It really heats up the cabin but that feels pretty good on a cold morning.
Our daughter and SIL moved out of state and left some of their firewood out in the weather. I carted it up to the woodshed so we can use it this winter. I found out he had a bit of a splitting problem with one piece! That's one reason you should always have at least two splitting wedges. Incidentally, the spear type wedges are okay until you hit a knot. Then they stick tight! A regular wedge will eventually cut through the knot.
Some of the wood I've now spilt and stacked.
These are green logs from trees I cut while thinning. I'll cut them to firewood length then store them outside under a tarp for the winter. They'll be perfect for next spring or winter.
I have three more trees down and cut up in the woods next to the garden. I need to load them in the truck and split them yet.
Our daughter and SIL have an apple tree in their yard so Susan and Emily picked the apples for canning and pies.
Susan peeling apples while we are watching a movie in the evening.
Here she's making raspberry cobbler to can for later use. We had some last night and it was great. That's canned chicken on the counter next to the wall.
She has another food preservation book under construction but it won't be finished for awhile. We try to anticipate the photos we'll need and take them in advance. That way if we work on the books while we are snow-birding in our motor home we'll already have the photos taken. Otherwise we have to put the book on hold until we get home in the spring.
This is the canned cobbler after being processed. The wide mouth jar on the far left is Cherry. The rest are raspberry. We are seriously running out of room to store everything she has canned. We may need to dig another root cellar.

Our oldest son got his first bow-kill yesterday. He and some friends are way back in the mountains hunting and they called in this bull elk. Details are sketchy since they barely had enough cell phone access to send the photo and texts but not enough to talk. The photo was taken in the dark and had to be run through the computer's photo program to lighten it up.
Incidentally, around here we often type out a text then throw the cell phone up in the air hoping it will make enough contact with a cell tower to send a message. (And hoping we can catch it on the way back down!) Sometimes you can just stand on top of your truck and/or tie the phone to a rope and swing the rope in circles until it gets high enough to make a connection. We used to have people think we were pulling their leg at the Dickey Lake Christian camp when we told them to take a canoe out to the middle of the lake to talk on their cell phone. It usually worked though! All of you with good cell phone access everywhere should be thankful for it!

The Nivus Group is a leading developer, manufacturer and supplier of measurement instruments for the water industry. Their product portfolio comprises metering devices for flow, level, pressure, water quality, density and turbidity as well as providing devices and software for the detection, transfer, recording and evaluation of data.
Nivus Flow Metering By OBW Technologies
Flow Meters for water and waste water at highest level. Very high accuracy – reliable measuring data – universal usability for all types of channels and pipes – full or part filled. Best measuring results due to velocity measurement spatial allocation.
Suitable for full pipe flow measurement or open channel flow measurement.
Flow Metering Applications
Channel Networks Monitoring: Portable and permanent measurement systems for continuous measurement of flow and level in channel network systems.
Waste water Treatment Plants: Portable and permanent measurement systems for continuous measurement of flow and level in all areas of waste water treatment plants.
Measurement Campaigns: Device rentals to complete planning, implementation and data evaluation. Used for master plan studies and for the calibration of hydraulic models.
Flowing Waters, Rivers & Channels: Flow measurements in flowing waters for flood protection, calibration and validation of hydrologic calculation models, dimensioning and operation of facilities in water industry.
Industry and Hydro-power – Flow measurements of inlets and outlets conducting cooling water, circulation systems and turbine intakes of power plants and industry, penstock monitoring and turbine efficiency monitoring.
Water Supply & Water Distribution – Measurement of level and pressure in deep wells and conveyor systems as well as flow measurements at elevated tanks, water purification plants and water treatment plants.
The Perfect Solution for every application
Regarding flow measurement in water and waste water NIVUS distinguish between two basic methods:
- Flow Velocity Measuring Methods: NIVUS provides portable and permanent metering systems for continuous flow measurement using ultrasonic flow velocity measurement. For any liquid from clean water to waste water and for a variety of flumes such as part filled and full pipes, channels and surface waters, NIVUS supply appropriate measurement systems.
- The Hydraulic Method: For classic flow measurement methods on venturi flumes, weirs, dam shutter and similar applications, NIVUS provides appropriate metering and evaluation instruments.
NIVUS provides the best possible measurement method for all applications.
Cross Correlation Method:
Reflectors within the water are scanned by an ultrasonic impulse and subsequently are saved as echo patterns. A second scan follows a few milliseconds later. Correlating both signals allows the calculation of the flow velocity. Repeating this procedure in varying flow levels enables determination of the real flow velocity profile.
- The measurement method for universal use in slight to heavily polluted water.
- Very high accuracy.
- Measures the real flow velocity profile.
- For use in waste water.
The Doppler Method
The Doppler method uses a continuous ultrasonic signal with a defined frequency and known angle to be sent into the water. The moving particles generate a frequency shift which is proportional to the flow velocity of the particles. These values are used for statistical averaging. The Doppler method cannot be used perform distance – related flow velocity measurements.
- For measurement in slight to heavily polluted water
- Latest intelligent fourth-generation Doppler technology
Transit Time Method:
The transit time method is based on detecting the transit time of ultrasonic signals between two sensors. Here the signal transit time towards the flow direction is shorter than against the flow direction. The difference between the both transit times is proportional to the average flow velocity along the measurement path. The average velocity within the section is calculated by the transmitter.
- For clean to slightly polluted water
- Meets IEC 41 requirements
- Very high measurement accuracy

Features & Benefits
Easy and quick to start-up.
- Thanks to the alphanumeric keypad and the back-lit 128 x 128 pixel display, parameters can be set and readings as well as status messages can be indicated without the need to use additional aids.
Easy operation even under poor conditions.
- Due to the compact construction, the PCM can be easily installed in manholes, featuring a weight of 6.2Kg including the rechargeable battery; the PCM is the "lightweight" among the transmitters. There is no additional grounding connection required and the very robust enclosure protects the electronic components against mechanical and chemical influences as well as effects of weather.
Easy assessment of measurement places.
- Due to the lack of calming sections, poor ambient conditions and the need to operate in public traffic areas, channel network measurements are among the most difficult measuring tasks.Thanks to the ultrasonic cross correlation the measured flow profile can be indicated directly on the transmitter. This worldwide unique feature gives the safety of having the best possible measurement right from the start up.
Redundant data storage.
- The PCM uses two completely independent memory media which virtually eliminates data loss.
The right sensor for each application
There are flow velocity sensors with and without integrated level measurement as well as air-ultrasonic level sensors. Depending on the application there are varying constructions available. The Type "Mini" sensor family provides the best possible measurement system to detect lowest discharges e.g. for measurement of extraneous water or indirect discharge measurements.

This photo was taken by Frank Low, one of our parishioners at St. John's Anglican Church. This is how our town looks in Autumn. Uralla has a population of 2750 and is situated on the Northern Tablelands in New South Wales, roughly half-way between Sydney and Brisbane. Colder than the usual Australian climate we do often see snow here.
One thought on "Uralla, NSW Australia"
I actually thought that it looks surreal. Maybe this is the beauty of Autumn.

Tipton Fights for Colorado's Students with Education and Energy Act
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Scott Tipton (CO-03) reintroduced the Education and Energy Act (H.R. 5859), a bill that will help states support K-12 and public higher education through the responsible development of energy resources.
H.R. 5859, which Tipton last introduced in the 113th Congress, would dedicate more of the federal share of mineral and geothermal lease royalties back to the state in which they were generated to support public education. The bill would apply to new leases and only to revenues that exceed the Congressional Budget Office's estimated revenue for the leases in the prior fiscal year.
"The teachers' strikes in Colorado and across the country over recent weeks have reignited the conversation around teacher pay and education resources," said Tipton. "By directing a greater portion of energy revenues to fund education, we can help bridge some of these gaps and make critical investments in the future of our children."
Under H.R. 5859, 33 percent of the federal portion of mineral and geothermal revenues would be sent back to the state in which the revenue was generated. Seventeen percent of all federal revenues from new mineral and geothermal leases would be split between all 50 states.
"The Education and Energy Act is a win-win for Colorado," Tipton added. "We can responsibly develop energy to open the door for more job creation and lower energy costs, and at the same time ensure a sustainable funding stream for public education in our state."

I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride my bike..I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride it where I like..
If you are riding on big bore kit, and try test ride normal one, or vice versa, there are a lot difference!
Note that their quote doesn't include carburator, better change as well,
Last time they quote 700+ for full package.
Combine with full system exhaust, you are perfect !
But there are alot racing parts, some still not clear what ,
racing high cam/racing camshaft => wht effect ? torque? I don't know should change.
racing clutch plate, clutch spring, housing => ok, related to clutch, but what
Last edited by virux; 10-10-2016 at 02:37 PM.
I am trying my luck if I get any response from here.
I am a new rider. 22 year old under P-plate. I just bought a 2nd hand Yamaha Spark 135 (Clutchless) FBE plate on one of the bike shops in Eunos area 2 days ago(28/10/16).
I have registered my GF as a subrider as well.
Yesterday my GF was riding the bike on PIE just after Exit 9 to Jalan Eunos, when making a right turn, she skidded. It was raining heavily. She flew off the bike and sustained fracture bones near Spine/Pelvis area. Thank God no operation needed. She mentioned that 4 riders and 1 driver (Kudos to them) stopped and helped. The car driver helped to send her to her workplace at Eunos area as per her request. NO TP CAME into the scene and her colleague helped to push the bike out of the scene quickly. No other parties were involved also.
Bike Damages:
- gear shifter/lever bent, seems really very tight and stuck. Can't change gears no matter how much force I put on it(even if I stand on it)
- gear stuck on 1st gear. Engine is okay on idle but when i rev the throttle, engine dies. is this because the gear stuck or what?
- front fork misaligned(front wheel and handle bar out of sync)
- left fairing scratches
- left mirror misaligned (stuck and can't bring back to original position)
I have some concerns/questions:
- I have not contacted the shop yet as the day of accident was a Public Holiday and today is Sunday. Should I call the shop and claim that I had the accident on my own instead of telling them that the subrider was the one involved? (I have issues and worries about insurance not yet officially goes through the system for subrider)
- For the bike repair should I or can I claim the damages repair to the insurance company without getting the police involved? Or should I just pay the repair cost without insurance agency coming in to the picture
- Will the police know about this and give me or the subrider demerit pts + fine?
- Can my bike still be rescued/saved? Around how much is the damage if I decide to pay it myself?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much riders!
my bike running by 63mm borekit for about a year, a few days ago sudden "Tuk tuk" or "knock" sound comming out only at IDLE. Any idea guys ????
I check with near workshop and he has no idea!
please see video and sound here : https://sendvid.com/2zgnk4ty
so far i can think of is : Timing chain? con-rod bearing ? vulve ?
17 inch racing boy rim
New fairings
many more, just ask for the parts u need
whatapps 82007665 i have
More bike parts at
Anyone got info whether if LTA still can transfer ownership name of yoshimura exhaust and able to pass inspection? Anyone recently had done it?
Hi X1-r riders,jst wana ask, X1-r can use koso meter? Any mods need to be done? I was qouted RM$680 at jb bike shop. Dey mentioned need to mod the base for the koso meter to be placed. Thks in advance.
Hi guys. I'm looking to buy a Yamaha X1R with COE ending on 2020 and above. Preferbly fully stock/no mods as I want to use for transportation. Do call/msg me at 82233881 if you want to sell. Thanks.

NoOne use forum?? No more x1r on da road???
Anyway... just question, anyone,
Front fork new ( how much ?? ) KYB can direct fit?
Hi, my X1-r can't seem to go beyond 70/h. I have so far sent to 2 shops, they changed the speedometer cable, service carburator and air filter but no difference. Can anyone help?
Any active x1r riders? Are the any riding groups for cubs?

ISIS Attack On Bangladesh Warning
After some days of Gulsan attack this video was published. There were three boys from Bangladesh. They said about current situation of Bangladesh politics and more. They call about laws and rules about Bangladesh.
Guess that this video was taken fron Syria. Because see the number of these car, those were passing beside them in this video.
Its really very scary that they talked about more attacks . This is a video message of ISIS Bangladeshi members and they warning about next attack in Bangladesh.

Wilmington,N.C.-- The UMBC Softball team started the first day of the Hampton Inn University Area Seahawk Softball Classic in Wilmington, N.C. by dropping two tough contests, a 5-3 back-and-forth affair with Appalachian State and a 7-1 loss to host UNCW.
Game 1
The Retrievers (3-8) jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the first after Kelly Lane (Albany, N.Y./Colonie Central) drew a two out walk, followed by Kaelin Jackson (Export, Pa./Franklin Regional) reaching on an error. Jaclyn Buckley (Voorhees, N.J./Eastern Camden Regional) then smashed an RBI double to bring in Lane and an error later in the inning allowed Jackson to score.
Appalachian State (6-4) would quickly respond with two in the top of the second and then take the lead with a single run in the fourth. UMBC would tie the game in the bottom of the fifth after Jackson would hit a leadoff single and move to second on a sacrifice bunt from Buckley. The senior would advance to third on a passed ball and then score on a wild pitch.
The Mountaineers would once again quickly respond with two in the top of the sixth and UMBC would have runners at second and third in the bottom of the sixth, but couldn't score and fell 5-3.
Buckley was the only player in the game with multiple hits, going 2-for-3 with the RBI double. Jackson went 1-for-4 with two runs scored, while Kelly Lane went 1-for-3 with a walk, stolen base and run scored. Defending America East Player of the Week Maddie Daigneau (New River, Ariz./Boulder Creek) went 1-for-3 with a walk.
Game 2
UNCW (4-1) would jump out to a 4-0 lead before even recording an out in the bottom of the first. UMBC would threaten to get back into the game multiple times, but couldn't cut into the lead before the Seahawks added two more runs in the fourth to make it 6-0.
The Retrievers would get a run back in the top of the fifth when Lane hit a sacrifice fly with the bases loaded to score Haley DeLany (Lederach, Pa./Souderton Area) and cut the lead to five, but they would get no closer.
Toni Santonastasso (Canonsburg, Pa./Pope John XXIII Regional) went 2-for-2 and was hit by a pitch, while Daigneau, once again, finished 1-for-3 with a walk.
UMBC will look to get back in the win column when it has a 10 AM rematch with UNCW, followed by a 3 PM game with North Texas.

Spaceman, Spaceman, SPACEMAN!
I went digital with this idea for obvious reasons. I don't think I even have a fraction of the number of minifigs in this shot, let alone this many spacemen!
Hidden within this picture are also a few classic sets (6804, 886, 6807, 6802) along with six minifig accessories (6701). Most of these are only a couple of blurry pixels so be sure to check out the side view if you want to see a better angle on everything.

Way back in January I had a day in Elgin – which is nestled halfway between Inverness and Aberdeen. In last weeks post I shared the mill tour at Johnstons of Elgin, home of fine cashmere homeware and clothing, but in this post I'll be sharing more of what you can expect to see, do,…
Johnstons of Elgin Mill Tour
I was in Elgin recently. There's a fuller post coming up next week on how I spent a day exploring this cathedral town in Moray, but today I thought I'd tell you about a mill tour at Johnstons of Elgin which is not only free, but fascinating!
Dundee – The City of Discovery
Following on from last week's post and my stay in Dundee at Hotel Indigo, I thought I'd give AHB readers a bit of a low down on what you can do in Dundee, known as the city of discovery!
Discovering Dundee with Hotel Indigo (review)
Dundee has had quite a year. Named in the 'Top 5 Worldwide Hot Destinations' by the Wall Street Journal, and the 'Coolest Little City in Britain' by GQ Magazine, Dundee has seen the V&A Dundee open after many years of construction and anticipation building. Not only that, the city has seen a resurgence in restaurant,…
Bowhouse Food Weekend – A taste of Fife!
Last month I attended Bowhouse Food Weekend (which I had first heard of through Sarah's blog). The previous day I had distilled my own gin at Darnley's Distillery and staff there had also recommended popping along there. So before we headed out to a wedding at the beautiful Cambo estate, we made tracks over to…
Darnley's Gin School – #Distilyourown experience
A couple of weekends ago I was down in Fife for a wedding, but also managed to time my visit to the Kingdom with a visit to gin school – over at the beautiful Darnley's cottage, situated right next to the picturesque Kingsbarns Distillery and Visitor Centre!
The return of Bon Accord Soft Drinks
When I'm out and about for meals/drinks, I often like to alternate my tipple of choice (if you didn't know it was gin) with soft drinks (hello responsible drinker over here!) or to find something other than the usual tonic water or soda mixer. However standard pub offerings are fairly disappointing with the usual Coke or…
What can you expect at a Scottish Highland Games?
Highland Games are a huge part of national culture all over Scotland, and while centuries ago these events would have been a display of clan rivalry for the biggest and bravest soldiers to compete, these are a much more friendly affair nowadays!
Never.25 – A taste of the first Scottish eau de vie
Today I'm excited to share with you a new Scottish-made spirit, from Tayport Distillery – Never.25 eau de vie which uses the best of Scottish produce to create a delicious fruit-infused spirit.
Caithness coast – my maiden voyage: Caithness Seacoast RIB trip
It was a fine weekend morning last Saturday, a perfect day for hopping on a speedboat along the Caithness coast! When we lived in Inverness I had been on the Dolphin Spirit boat trips in the Moray Firth, but never got round to booking a place on their RIB trip. However, Wick has Caithness Seacoast…

By Briana Vannozzi
Two years ago, mechanical repair shop owner Estevan Maas found himself in uncharted territory.
"I became unemployed in the summer of 2015. I have a wife, two daughters, it was a scary prospect," he said.
But his turnaround is being touted a success, thanks to a partnership between Union County Community College and local businesses to train and recruit students and creating a pipeline to jobs.
"Nationwide nearly seven million Americans are actively looking for work. Meanwhile, employers are looking to fill over 5.5 million jobs that exist in the marketplace as we speak. The problem is, as Bob will tell you, employers are struggling to find workers with the right skills," said Sen. Bob Menendez.
Enter new legislation, unveiled today by Menendez at the college's workforce center. It'll expand job training partnerships through a billion dollar competitive tax credit program.
"To encourage businesses and community colleges to form more partnerships that equip workers with today's in demand skills.
The Better Education and Skills Training, or BEST for America's Workforce Act, will go to applicants in partnerships that are most likely to secure employment for workers completing programs.
Businesses like Bob Tarantino's. He's the founder of New Jersey Precision Technologies. His high tech contract manufacturing company has already hired two UCC grads.
"New Jersey and most states have lost many of the machine shop training programs at the high school level and most manufacturing companies cannot find skilled workers. It's a serious problem," Tarantino said.
"When I saw this opportunity it's like, 'OK, here's something different but tangentially related to what I had done.' To get into that program and learn the basic skills was critical," Maas said.
According to the Department of Labor, for every one manufacturing job filled it creates 1.4 additional jobs. That number is even higher for high tech manufacturing. The problem as Menendez puts it: many of the jobs being offered in 2017 don't look like the jobs we lost during the great recession.
"The bill also includes a tax credit of up to $4,000 for firms that pay to train and hire long-term unemployed individuals," Menendez said.
Menendez also toured the nearby Kearny Point campus, a co-working space for small businesses, startups and professionals. He says applicants with programs tailored to provide skill sets that meet the strongest market demands will also be favored.
Today also marks the start of a 21 county tour by Menendez where he'll visit local businesses, speak with entrepreneurs, legislators and industry leaders to build these so-called bridges to jobs.

Interior Painting
Interior Painting - House Painters in Phoenix
Dust, dirt, fingerprints, smoke and cooking oil residue can all have a negative effect on the walls of your home, creating a film that dulls the walls.
Sunlight can also have a negative effect by causing fading. When you are looking for interior painting near Phoenix, it's important to choose a company you can trust.
A poorly done job can mean the difference between a stunning final product and a sagging disappointment.
What colors should I choose for interior painting in Phoenix?
Color Moods and Emotions
Did you know that each color has a specific mood and emotion attached to it? Here's a quick rundown of what the most common colors mean for house painters in Phoenix.
Red is the color of fire and of blood. As such, it represents strength and intensity and is often associated with danger, power, passion and love when painting near Phoenix. This color boosts the human metabolism by increasing respiration and raising the blood pressure. As such, you might not want to use it in a children's bedroom. However, the rec room or art studio might be a good place. Other colors in the red family include brown (masculine) and pink (affection, gentle love).
Orange is a unique color as it combines the intensity of red and the uplifting atmosphere of yellow when using house painters in Phoenix. Orange is a "hot" color and can "warm up" a living space. Like red, orange has the ability to stimulate the human metabolism and can boost mental clarity. Colors in the orange family include red orange and gold.
Known as "the sunshine color", yellow exudes joy, happiness and energy. Yellow can be overstimulating if misused. In fact, studies have shown that babies are more likely to cry in rooms that are painted a bright, invigorating yellow. As with all other colors, yellow is available in various shades. Used properly, it is a great color for attracting attention and making a statement when combined with bolder color schemes.
Green is the color of nature and is the most restful of all colors. It relates to freshness, growth and harmony. It's a great color for a dining room, a kitchen or a bedroom and gives the impression of stability and endurance. Green is often used to promote health-related products and can has a distinct healing quality.
As the color of the sky and sea, blue represents integrity. It can mean trust, loyalty, wisdom, faith, truth and heaven and is another calming color when using local house painters in Phoenix. Blue is known to slow down the human metabolism and to have a tranquilizing effect. Light blue can represent health, understanding and gentleness. Dark blue shades represent power, seriousness and knowledge.
Purple is a combination of blue and red and possesses qualities of both. A mysterious color, purple is associated with dignity, magic and creativity and is one of the most preferred colors of pre-adolescent children (think Barney). Light purple is a very feminine color, but a rich royal purple can be used for more masculine designs if used tastefully.
White means goodness, light, purity and perfection. In direct opposition to black, white can present a feeling of peace and rest. It works best when used along with other colors, as too much white can present the feeling of sterility found in hospitals and labs.
Black is another mysterious color that can be associated with fear and darkness. However, when paired with other colors in a painting project, black can present an extremely elegant appearance and will make other colors stand out.
Bold vs Muted
To make a statement, consider using a bold color to really stand out and make an impression when painting near Phoenix. These colors will work well in a central location. You might also want to use bold color schemes in home office spaces to enhance productivity. If you live in a more old-fashioned style home, you may want to consider using pastels or lighter colors on the color wheel.

Sheens and Finishes
There are several sheens, or finishes, you can choose to have applied by house painters in Phoenix. The sheen you choose will depend on the location of the walls you're looking to have painted. Gloss and satin finishes are best for high-traffic areas such as foyers and bathrooms, since they are easy to clean and do not hold onto debris. However, any imperfections in the wall such as patches, irregular drywall joints and divots will be significantly pronounced. If this is the case, you might want to opt for a matte finish such as flat or eggshell.
If you are Googling "painters near me" to find someone who can help you determine a good color scheme for the interior of your home, look to Green Painting Phoenix! Green Painting Phoenix takes the guesswork and headache out of painting and can provide you with a quality paint job to give your home an entirely different feel.

My work reflects my mixed English and Persian heritage.
20th Century Modern and Persian Geometric Art have greatly influenced my work since I graduated University. Although I have a science degree I also studied Iconoclasm and Digital Art including pattern recognition which help fuel my passion for minimalism in both the visual arts (Carmen Herrera and Ellsworth Kelly) and in music (Brian Eno, Harold Budd and Philip Glass).
Since the 1990's I have worked in oils, acrylics and inks on paper and canvas as well as experimenting with other physical and digital media. Most recently I have been working with acrylic graffiti spray on paper and Giclée Fine Art Prints.
I have lived and exhibited in London, The Hague, New York, Paris and Sydney and currently live with my wife and children in Greenwich.

The battle for e-payments superiority goes global
Three of the top M&A payments deals have taken place in 2019, as payment providers and technology companies seek to offer end-to-end solutions and broaden their reach
From e-wallets to credit cards, cash is slowly becoming consigned to history as individuals seek convenience when executing everyday transactions. With companies such as Alibaba and Tencent cementing their position in China, the race is on internationally to dominate this growing and opportunistic payments landscape.
In fact, M&A transactions in the payments industry have been quite sizable this year as companies look to expand their reach or technological capabilities. According to Refinitiv, three of the top five payments on record were announced in 2019 with Global Payments recently willing to pay around US$22 billion for Total System Services. Combined both companies will support the payment systems of more than 3.5 million small to medium-sized merchants.
The move for increasing payments consolidation reverses a recent trend. For example, around a year and half ago the US government blocked the MoneyGram sale to Ant Financial based on national security concerns. Since then China-based Ant Financial has continued to look for more opportunities, just this February acquiring London-based payments company WorldFirst for about US$700 million.
However, the sale of WorldFirst could better represent a commentary on the looser and more accommodating M&A policy operating in the UK, a country traditionally very open to overseas takeover activity.
Southeast Asia has also seen its fair share of activity, with Vietnamese conglomerate Vingroup acquiring e-wallet platform MonPay in a move designed to break into the country's rapidly growing e-commerce market. In India, ACI Worldwide made a strategic investment in Mumbai-based Mindgate Solutions, one of the technology providers behind India's Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system.
"Since its launch by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) in 2016, UPI has achieved incredible growth due to its ease-of-use and convenience," says AP Hota, former CEO of the NPCI.
"Indeed, India is leading the global real-time and digital payments revolution, and we are seeing other markets implementing similar end-to-end solutions to drive payments modernization. The combination of ACI and Mindgate will support the continued global adoption of real-time and digital payments, while helping to drive UPI as it becomes the dominant Indian retail payments method," adds Hota.
UPI has quickly emerged as the second-most-common method of digital payment in India. According to the NPCI, the total number of UPI transactions reached around 800 million in March 2019, up from 178 million in March 2018. By 2023, experts predict 60 billion UPI transactions annually, accounting for more than 50% of India's digital payments transactions.
Whether it be in India or elsewhere across the globe, there is little doubt that there will be a push from payment providers to solidify their regional or technological hold on everyday payment transactions.

TurboVNC v2.2.2 (MacOS)
TurboVNC is a derivative of VNC (Virtual Network Computing) that is tuned to provide peak performance for 3D and video workloads. TurboVNC was originally a fork of TightVNC 1.3.x, and on the surface, the X server and Windows viewer still behave similarly to their parents. However, the current version of TurboVNC contains a much more modern X server code base (based on X.org 7.7) and a variety of other features and fixes not present in TightVNC, including a high-performance Java viewer. In addition, TurboVNC compresses 3D and video workloads significantly better than the "tightest" compression mode in TightVNC 1.3.x while using only typically 15-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also match the best compression ratios produced by TightVNC 1.3.x for 2D workloads. Furthermore, TurboVNC contains some unique features that are designed specifically for visualization applications.
All VNC implementations, including TurboVNC, use the RFB (remote framebuffer) protocol to send "framebuffer updates" from the VNC server to any connected "viewers." Each framebuffer update can contain multiple "rectangles" (regions that have changed since the last update.) As with TightVNC, TurboVNC analyzes each rectangle, splits it into multiple "subrectangles", and attempts to encode each subrectangle using the "subencoding type" that will provide the most efficient compression, given the number of unique colors in the subrectangle. The process by which TurboVNC does this is referred to as an "encoding method." A rectangle is first analyzed to determine if any significant portion of it is solid, and if so, that portion is encoded as a bounding box and a fill color ("Solid subencoding.") Of the remaining subrectangles, those with only two colors are encoded as a 1-bit-per-pixel bitmap with a 2-color palette ("Mono subencoding"), those with low numbers of unique colors are encoded as a color palette and an 8-bit-per-pixel bitmap ("Indexed color subencoding"), and subrectangles with high numbers of unique colors are encoded using either JPEG or arrays of RGB pixels ("Raw subencoding"), depending on the encoding method. zlib can optionally be used to compress the indexed color, mono and raw subrectangles.
Part of TurboVNC's speedup comes from the use of libjpeg-turbo. However, TurboVNC also eliminates the CPU-hungry smoothness detection routines that TightVNC 1.3.x used to determine whether a subrectangle is a good candidate for JPEG compression, and TurboVNC's encoding methods tend to favor the use of JPEG more, since it is now generally the fastest subencoding type. Furthermore, TurboVNC eliminates buffer copies, it maximizes network efficiency by splitting framebuffer updates into relatively large subrectangles, and it uses only the zlib compression levels that can be shown to have a measurable performance benefit.
TurboVNC is the product of extensive research, in which many different permutations of the TightVNC encoder were benchmarked at the low level against a variety of captured RFB sessions that simulate real-world application workloads, both 2D and 3D. TurboVNC's encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver.
In addition to high performance, other notable features of TurboVNC include:
Fine-grained control over the JPEG image quality and the level of chrominance subsampling
Double buffering on the client side to reduce tearing artifacts in 3D and video applications
Flexible and configurable full-screen/multi-screen support
Full support for IPv6
Advanced flow control and continuous updates. This allows clients to receive framebuffer updates without specifically requesting them, which can improve performance dramatically on high-latency connections.
Authentication with one-time passwords or Unix login credentials. Access control lists can be used to share VNC sessions with only certain users.
TurboVNC allows security/authentication policies to be set globally for a particular server machine.
Multithreaded Tight encoding
"Lossless refresh" allows a viewer to request a lossless copy of the current screen image. This is useful in situations in which image quality is critical but the network is too slow to support sending a high-quality image for every frame. Lossless refreshes can be performed manually when a certain hotkey is pressed, or the TurboVNC Server can be configured to send a lossless refresh automatically if the user stops interacting with the application for a certain period of time.
A high-performance Java viewer, deployable using Java Web Start. This viewer is based on the TigerVNC Java viewer but has numerous additional features, the most notable of which is the ability to accelerate JPEG decompression by calling libjpeg-turbo through JNI. This gives the Java TurboVNC Viewer similar levels of performance to the native TurboVNC Viewer.
TurboVNC, when used with VirtualGL, provides a highly performant and robust solution for remotely displaying 3D applications over all types of networks.
On "modern" hardware, TurboVNC is capable of streaming 50+ Megapixels/second over a 100 Megabit/second local area network with perceptually lossless image quality. TurboVNC can stream between 10 and 12 Megapixels/second over a 5 Megabit/second broadband connection at reduced (but usable) image quality.
TurboVNC is compatible with other VNC distributions, particularly with those that also support Tight encoding (such as TigerVNC, TightVNC, and UltraVNC.)
Significant changes relative to 2.2.1:
Fixed an error ("javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: No appropriate protocol (protocol is disabled or cipher suites are inappropriate)") that occurred when attempting to use any of the TLS* security types with the Java TurboVNC Viewer running under Java 7u211, 8u201, 11.0.2, or later.
Fixed an issue in the Java TurboVNC Viewer's built-in SSH client whereby values for the ServerAliveInterval keyword in the OpenSSH config file were interpreted as milliseconds rather than seconds. This caused the SSH connection to fail if the value specified for ServerAliveInterval was too low.
Fixed a regression introduced by 2.2.1[6] that caused constant flickering in the UltraVNC Viewer when it was used with the TurboVNC Server.
Fixed an issue in the TurboVNC Server whereby, if interframe comparison was enabled and the remote desktop was resized to a smaller size, the server would sometimes send a framebuffer update that exceeded the new desktop dimensions. This crashed the UltraVNC Viewer.
Fixed a denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in the TurboVNC Server that was exposed when many RFB connections were made to the server and never dropped, thus exceeding the Xvnc process's allotment of file descriptors. When this occurred, it triggered an infinite loop whereby the TurboVNC Server's listener socket handler returned immediately with an EMFILE ("Too many open files") error, but the handler continued to be called by the X.Org code because the incoming RFB connection never succeeded. This infinite loop prevented the TurboVNC session owner from launching any X11 programs in the session (since those require Unix domain socket connections) until one or more of the RFB connections dropped, and the continuous flood of error messages in the session log caused the log to grow by megabytes per second until all available disk space was exhausted. The TurboVNC Server now sets a reasonable RFB connection limit (which can be adjusted using a new Xvnc argument, -maxconnections) and rejects all new connections once this limit has been reached. The upper limit for -maxconnections should be low enough to avoid the aforementioned EMFILE error and infinite loop.
Fixed an issue in the Linux/Un*x TurboVNC Viewer whereby, if multiple buttons on an extended input device (such as a drawing tablet) were pressed or released in rapid succession, some of those button events could accidentally be discarded by the TurboVNC Helper under certain circumstances, leading to a loss of synchronization between the client's and the TurboVNC session's extended input device button state. From the point of view of applications running in the TurboVNC session, the extended input device buttons appeared to stick in the down or up position.

Finally, for the first time, I'm going to watch theatre. I am yet to watch a theatre. Perhaps this will be a good introduction to me.
She bought the tickets this week. Will watch it in the early Nov 2009…I can't wait for it..Hope it will be a blast!
Thanks dear 🙂
