A natural disaster or other emergency could cut off water access for weeks. Storing your own supply addresses your most important need in this situation. Although water does not "go bad" in the same way that food does, it can breed harmful bacteria if you do not purify it or store it in safe conditions. The other risk is chemical contamination, either from certain types of plastic containers, or from chemical vapors that pass through the walls of the water containers.
Part 1
Preparing Sanitary Containers
1Decide how much water to store. The average person needs 1 gallon (4 liters) of water each day, half for drinking and half for food preparation and hygiene. Increase this number to 1.5 gallons (5.5 L) per person or more for children, nursing mothers, and sick people, and for anyone in a hot or high-altitude climate. Based on these numbers, try to store a 2 week supply for your household.[1] In case of an emergency evacuation, store a 3 day supply in easily transportable containers.[2]
- For example, 2 healthy adults and 1 child need (1 gallon or 3.8 liters / adult) x (2 adults) + (1.5 gal or 5.7 liters / child) x (1 child) = 3.5 gallons (13.25 liters) per day. A 2 week supply of water for this household is (3.5 gallons or 13.25 liters/ day) x (14 days) = 49 gallons (185.5 liters). A 3 day supply would be (3.5 gallons or 13.25 liters/day) x (3 days) = 10.5 gallons (40 liters).
2Consider bottled water. In areas that regulate bottled water, including the U.S. and E.U., sealed bottles of water are already sanitary and will stay good indefinitely. If you go this route, you do not need to worry about selecting appropriate containers or purifying the water.[3]
- Check the label for certification by the IBWA (International Bottled Water Association), NSF (National Sanitation Foundation), or UL (Underwriters Laboratories). These demonstrate the product has met safety and quality standards.[4] This is more important in countries that do not regulate bottled water.
3Select food grade containers. Plastic food or beverage containers marked "HDPE" or with a #2 recycling symbol are excellent options.[5] Plastics #4 (LDPE) and #5 (PP) are also safe, as is stainless steel.[6] Never reuse a container that held anything besides food and drink, and only use brand-new empty containers if they are marked "food grade," "food safe," or with a knife and fork symbol.
- Milk and fruit juice leave residue that is difficult to remove and encourages bacterial growth. Do not reuse containers that held these drinks.[7]
- Glass jars are a last resort, since they can easily break in a disaster.
- Traditional unglazed pottery jars can help keep water cool in warm climates. Use one with a narrow mouth, lid, and tap if possible to encourage sanitary handling.[8]
4Avoid containers made from hazardous plastics. Look for the resin identification code on plastic containers, which typically consists of a number printed next to the recycling symbol. Avoid containers marked "3" (for polyvinyl chloride, or PVC), "6" (for polystyrene, or PS), and "7" (for polycarbonate). These materials can be hazardous to your health.
5Clean the containers thoroughly. Wash them with soap and hot water, then rinse. If a container previously held food or drink, disinfect it with one of the following methods:
- Fill with water and mix in 1 tsp (5 mL) liquid household bleach for every quart (approximately 1 liter) of water. Swish to touch all surfaces, then rinse well.[9]
- For stainless steel or heat-safe glass, submerge in boiling water for 10 minutes, plus 1 minute for each 1,000 ft (300 m) of elevation above an altitude of 1,000 ft (300 m).[10] This is the best method for steel, since chlorine bleach can corrode the metal.[11]
6Disinfect water from unsafe sources. If your tap water is not safe to drink or if you get your water from a well, disinfect it right before storage. The best way to do this is to bring the water to a rolling boil for 1 minute, or 3 minutes at elevations above 5,000 ft (1,000 m).[12]
- If you cannot boil the water, or do not want to lose water by boiling it, bleach is the next best option:[13]
- Mix in ½ tsp (2.5 mL) of unscented, additive-free bleach for every 5 gallons (19 liters) of water. Double the amount of bleach if the water is cloudy or discolored.
- Let the water sit for half an hour.
- If you cannot smell a faint chlorine scent, repeat treatment and let sit another 15 minutes.
- In an emergency, you can also disinfect small amounts of water with water purification tablets. However, use these sparingly, as excessive use can impair thyroid function.[14]
7Filter out contaminants. Boiling or chlorine will kill microorganisms, but they will not remove lead or heavy metals. If your water is contaminated by runoff from farms, mines, or factories, pour it through an activated carbon filter and a reverse osmosis (RO) filter.[15]
- You can make your own filter out of common materials. While not as effective as a commercial filter, it will remove sediment and some toxins.
Part 2
Storing the Water
1Seal the container tightly. Take care not to touch the inside of the cap with your fingers, to avoid contamination.[16]
2Label the container. Write "drinking water" on the side, along with the date you bottled it or purchased it.
3Store in a cool, dark place. Light and heat can damage containers, especially plastic ones. Sunlight can also cause algae or mold to grow in clear containers, even sealed, store-bought bottles.[17]
- Do not store plastic containers near chemical products, especially gasoline, kerosene, and pesticides. Vapors can pass through some plastic containers and contaminate the water.[18]
- Store a 3 day supply in small containers near an exit, in case of an emergency evacuation.
4Check on the supply every 6 months. If stored properly, unopened, store-bought bottled water should stay good indefinitely, even if the bottle has an expiration date.[19] If you bottled the water yourself, replace it every 6 months.[20] Replace plastic containers when the plastic becomes cloudy, discolored, scratched, or scuffed.[21]
- You can drink or use the old supply of water before replacing it.
5Open 1 container at a time. If you need to use your emergency supply, store open water containers in a refrigerator or cold location. Use an open container within 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator, 1 to 2 days in a cold room, or a few hours in a warm room.[22] After that, purify the remaining water again by boiling it or adding chlorine.
- Drinking directly from the container or touching the rim with dirty hands increases the risk of contamination.
Community Q&A
QuestionAfter you boil water, do you need to let it cool before filling up the container?Anthony "TC" WilliamsAnthony "TC" Williams is a Professional Landscaper in Idaho. He is the President and Founder of Aqua Conservation Landscape & Irrigation, an Idaho Registered Landscape Business Entity.
Professional LandscaperProfessional LandscaperExpert AnswerYes. This is especially important if you are pouring it into a plastic or soft sided container.
QuestionHow much bleach should I use for a 50 gallon (190 liter) drum?Anthony "TC" WilliamsAnthony "TC" Williams is a Professional Landscaper in Idaho. He is the President and Founder of Aqua Conservation Landscape & Irrigation, an Idaho Registered Landscape Business Entity.
Professional LandscaperProfessional LandscaperExpert AnswerFor storage, add 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) of unscented household bleach to 5 gallons (19 liters) of water. A 50 gallon (190 liter) container would require 5 teaspoons (25 ml). Double the amount of teaspoons or milliliters if water is cloudy.
QuestionDo you fill the containers to the top or leave some space in them?Community AnswerFill it up to the top. The less air inside the bottle the better.
QuestionCan I store sanitized water in one gallon milk containers?Community AnswerNo. Milk and fruit juice leave residue that is difficult to remove and encourages bacterial growth. Do not reuse containers that held these drinks.
QuestionShould the container be sealed airtight?Community AnswerYes, keep the bottle sealed airtight. Then pop it in the fridge to keep it cool.
QuestionCan we store water in a water tank for long time?Community AnswerYes. Adding a tiny bit of chlorine and sealing the water tight should keep it clean. Make sure bugs don't get into the tank.
QuestionAs I understand it, both bleach and chlorine are toxic. Why would I add them to a water supply?Community AnswerMunicipalities also use bleach to disinfect water. Much like fluoride, bleach in small amounts does not harm you. If you think about alcohol, it is a poison. One or two drinks of alcohol a day, though, is good for your digestion.
QuestionWill storing water with bleach make it stay good indefinitely?Community AnswerNo, the FDA recommends rotating the supply every 6 months if you have bottled it yourself.
QuestionCan water bottles be stored on a concrete floor?Community AnswerI researched this for myself and got different answers depending on the source. I was unable to find a definitive source that I would definitely trust. Some said no problem unless it had oil, gasoline or chemical spills like in a garage. Others said never. All agreed it was safe with a barrier like layers of cardboard or wood slats. Since it isn't too difficult to create said barrier, that is what I went with.
QuestionCan I use a Brita water filter system to disinfect water before putting it into a storage container?Community AnswerYes, however, you must still purify the water. Filter first, purify with bleach, then air seal.
Can I sanitize water with hydrogen peroxide?
What should I do for underground concrete storage to keep the water fit for use longer?
Can I store cases of bottled water outside on a pallet and have it covered with a tarp in a shaded area?
How do I make sure the container I'm going to store water in is sterile?
Can I preserve water with vodka or other alcohol spirits?
- Consider freezing some of your water so you have a short-term way to store perishables if the power goes out. Freeze water in plastic containers with a couple inches (a few centimeters) of head space, as the expanding ice can break glass or overfilled containers.[23]
- Water kept in long-term storage can taste "flat" due to the loss of air, especially if it was boiled. Pour the water in long streams between 2 containers to aerate the water again and improve taste.
- Keep in mind that you may not be able to stay in your home during an emergency. Store at least some of your water in containers you can transport easily.
- Bottled water is not necessarily higher quality than tap water — and in some cases, it is tap water.[24] The advantage for storage is the commercially sealed bottle.
- When in doubt about whether a particular container is food grade, you can contact your local water authority for advice.
- If you notice a leak or hole in the containers after having stored the water, do not drink from the container.
- Do not use scented or color-safe bleach to purify water, or bleach with added cleaners, or bleach with a greater than 6.0% concentration. Bleach gradually becomes less effective if the bottle has been opened, so use a new container for best results.[25]
- Iodine tablets and other non-chlorine water treatments are not recommended, since they kill fewer microorganisms than chlorine.[26]

Article SummaryX
To store water long term, start by getting plastic or stainless steel food or beverage containers and cleaning them thoroughly. If the containers are new, wash them out with soap and hot water. For old containers, sanitize them with a solution of 1 teaspoon of household bleach for every quart of water. When your containers have been washed and rinsed, fill them with drinkable water and seal them tightly. Then, label the containers by writing "drinking water" on the side, along with the date, and store them someplace cool and dark.

Climate Common Sense is not a sceptical site but a non-believer's site .Global warming and cooling are natural phenomena and carbon dioxide is a lovely gas vital to plant growth. Global Warming has stopped and Climate Change ( I call it Weather) is the new manufactured bogeyman. This website will present a realist view on the Climate Change debate.

Guardian on Climategate - The Cracks Are Showing.
The Guardian , the flagship of Climate Change in the UK finally publishes a detailed account of Climategate which is reasonably fair (even with the compulsory mantra that global warming is still real) - this would never happen a couple of months ago.The wheel is definitely turning. At home we have Kevin ( Don't mention the ETS) Rudd being silent on "the greatest moral challenge of our generation."and the polls swinging away from the government because of a "great big carbon tax"

Decision to require EPA to change its ruling on replacing HFCs seen as a potential short-term blow to low-GWP plans
The US Federal Appeals Court has ordered the national Environmental Protection Agency to revise its 2015 ruling, which branded HFCs 'unacceptable' for use in various applications and required them to be replaced with lower-GWP alternatives, such as HFOs and natural refrigerants.
The court, responding to an appeal from refrigerant manufacturers Arkema and Mexichem, ruled that the EPA couldn't require HFC replacement under the terms of the Clean Air Act, because the rules were intended to cover ozone depletion not global warming. As neither manufacturer has suitable substitutes commercially available, they argued the EPA ruling was unfair to their business.
The Appeal Court decision has been condemned for standing in the way of progress towards a lower-GWP-refrigeration industry, as is being pursued in Europe via the F-Gas regulations. It has also been criticised.by manufacturers of low-GWP HFO alternatives, Chemours and Honeywell, which say they are considering appealing the decision.
However, the US has signed up to the global phasedown of HFCs, via the Montreal Protocol, so this decision is only believed to affect the short-term application of the refrigerants - effectively giving HFCs such as R134a a longer 'stay of execution' than planned.
At the same time, the terms of the Appeal Court ruling is believed to leave the way open for the EPA to continue to pursue the move away from HFCs on the basis of Toxic Substances legislation.
The move, as it stands could also theoretically stall the US' conversion of vehicles away from R134a - a move required in Europe by the European Mobile Air Conditioning Directive, but not required in the US until 2021-registered vehicles. However global car manufacturers have collectively made the decision to switch to the HFO R1234yf.
In a statement, Chemours expressed 'disappointment' with the decision and said it 'believes EPA properly used its existing authority under the Clean Air Act and followed the required process to compare the impact of alternatives on human health and the environment before changing the status of high global warming potential (GWP) alternatives to "unacceptable"'
The manufacturer noted that in the US, CO2 Greenhouse Gas carbon credits remain in place which offer incentives to US automakers to transition to a low-GWP refrigerant. "Currently, over 50% of the market has transitioned to HFO-1234yf and we expect this transition to continue so that automakers can take advantage of the credits. Chemours supports the continued reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the global frame-work of climate change regulations and incentives already in place. This includes the European Union MAC Directive and F-Gas Regulations… which will continue to drive the need for low-GWP products. The company is currently reviewing the court's ruling andassessing its options which could include an appeal of this ruling."

The next "Belgian" beer is a style that Belgium is most famous for: the Trappist Tripel. Chimay White is the most recognizable and most available of the Trappist Tripels. Bierbrouwerij de Koningshoeven is based in the Netherlands, so technically not a Belgian, but the six other Trappist monasteries are in Belgium so this is going in Belgian week here at PourThought. Here's my review:
The beer comes out of the bottle a murky copper color with an off white head.
The smell is very bready and nutty with hints of marzipan (almond candy) and some raisin along with grain and cereal.
A strong carbonation bursts onto the palate, delivering some serious liquid bread. Sweet, bready and raisin flavors are the most bold with the usual yeast spice and booze that runs into a residually sweet finish which quickly snaps dry at the very end, leaving nothing but a prickly carbonation feel. More flavors that develop as it warms in the glass are port, brandy, grape, raisin bread, toffee and estery, spicy yeast on the end.
It is medium to full bodied, a bit chewy with lively bubbles.
It is dark for a Tripel and doesn't have as dry of a finish as most do.
Thanksgiving is around the corner, and I think this would really go well with pumpkin pie. The breadiness, the spice and the sweet will meld with the pie's flavors, and the carbonation will lift it and any whip cream from the palate.
Style: Tripel

This artistic movement at the turn of the 20th century marks a break with traditional art. While modernism is seen all over Europe, it has unique characteristics in Barcelona and Catalonia. As the industrial revolution made cities boom, newly rich Barcelonese funded this unique movement to set themselves apart from the old money of Barcelona. "El modernisme català" is noted by its diverse use of building materials and influence from the natural world.

Letter to the Editor: Greater exclusivity at Incline Village?
After reading James Sepulveda's Guest Column two weeks ago listing his complaints about the horrid experience he and his family suffered while attending the Fourth of July fireworks in Incline Village, I found it interesting in the context of recent complainers lamenting that they didn't want "lowlifes" from other places ruining their community.
Apparently, the new restrictions on exclusivity for Fourth of July beach access were implemented because in the past, the community's beaches have been over-crowded and burdened with riffraff, losers and undesirables.
Thank goodness the pot heads, drunks and other undesirables were within the beach property this year. They were branded with arm bands provided by the IVGID stafd, ID'ing identified them as "the chosen."
Thank goodness they were kept away from the fine citizens of Kings Beach and from other less desirable points around the lake.
When one's elitist attitude fosters the mindset that your village is so wonderful, when in reality it exhibits the same problems as every other community outside your glass house — and oftentimes even worse — one needs a reality check and accept the fact that Incline Village is just like the rest of the world.
That is except for the fact many of its part-time residents are in total denial, and they have somehow developed a bigoted view toward outsiders. What is really odd is the village folk have not a clue that those attending the fireworks every year are mostly "outsiders" (guests of residents).
I'm a local resident and find the "lowlifes" much more desirable than the arrogant, pompous, God's-chosen residents who continue to think they — rather than the rest of us — are something "special."
I have an optimistic view of the world's population — that "everyone is special" and should be treated with respect. I live in Crystal Bay, so I am not blinded by the "I'm better than you mentality."
If I wanted to feel like that, I would have purchased in Incline Village.

The United Police State of America
- Obama signs NDAA giving the military the power to arrest and hold you forever without a trial.
- Both Liberal Democrats and Conservative Republicans work as one party to abolish the Bill of Rights fought for by our Founding Fathers..
Comrade Barack Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act of 2013 on Wednesday, giving his stamp of approval to a Pentagon spending bill that will keep Guantanamo Bay open and make sure that the military arrest and indefinite detention of US citizens remains in force.
The NDAA allows the military to detain United States citizens indefinitely without charge or trial for mere suspicions of ties to terrorism. Obama agreed to give the military the power to arrest and hold Americans without the writ of habeas corpus, although he promised with that year's signing statement that his administration would not abuse that privilege.
The People Fight Back Against The NDAA
Civil liberties advocates had roundly criticized the bill over Guantanamo and a separate section that could allow the military to indefinitely detain American citizens on suspicions of supporting terrorism. Just as he did with last year's version of the bill, however, Obama decided that the need to pass the NDAA, which also sets the armed forces' $633 billion budget for the 2013 fiscal year, was simply "too great to ignore," according to a presidential signing statement released in the early morning hours Thursday.
Members of the human rights coalition that had urged Obama to follow through on his veto threat blasted his decision as a cave to congressional Republicans.
"President Obama has utterly failed the first test of his second term, even before inauguration day," American Civil Liberties Union Executive Director Anthony Romero said in a statement. "His signature means indefinite detention without charge or trial, as well as the illegal military commissions, will be extended."
"It's the second time that the president has promised to veto a piece of a very controversial national security legislation only to sign it," said Shahid Buttar, executive director of the Bill of Rights Defense Committee. "He has a habit of promising resistance to national security initiatives that he ultimately ends up supporting and enabling."
Obama also allowed provisions of the law that require his administration to place certain terrorism suspects into military custody to stand without comment.
(Huffington Post)
|Congress has given the President the power to have the military
arrest and imprison Americans without a trial.

Sometimes we eat lunch at the ranch and sometimes we pack a lunch in the morning to enjoy on the trail. Buffet lunches off the back porch range from barbecued hamburgers to salads, soups and chilis.
There are a couple of upscale dinners for the adults when the kids are eating with the wranglers or at a cookout. The rest of the time we eat together and depending on what's fresh and available locally, entrees range from prime rib to melt in your mouth brisket to authentic pasta bolognese with salads and healthy sides. We cap off the week with a steak cook-out around the fire.
We also have a couple of happy hours during the week with complimentary beer and house-made sangria.
Please let us know ahead of time if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions and we'll be happy to accommodate you.

In this painting Paul Gauguin depicts two Tahitian women in a serene state of reverence, as they offer flowers, perhaps during a religious ceremony. Their skin is depicted in golden hues, set off by the cool colors of their clothes and of the tropical glade in which they stand. The painting captures Gauguin's mythical idea of Tahiti as a paradise of beautiful, mysterious women.
Currently, the painting is housed at the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., on loan from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

I used to have my green eating habits all set up. I had a box of local organic produce delivered to my door — and could supplement that delivery with a short walk to my local farmers market, local co-op, or Whole Foods, all of which offered local produce with clearly marked origins — fresh, loose and packaging-free.
Then I moved.
Moving is tough after you've lived somewhere for a few years, carefully settling into an eco-routine. Now, the produce delivery company has gone out of business, the local farmers market is 2.5 miles away (I no longer have my bike, as I mentioned yesterday), and the local grocery options are Pavilions and Trader Joe's. To be fair, both those stores offer organic produce — if you're satisfied with a limited, non-local, unnecessarily overpackaged, and, in the case of Pavilions, frightfully overpriced selection.
Good local organic food was my main justification for my weekly fossil-fuel burning trips to the co-op in my former neighborhood. There I loaded up on bulk organic fair trade coffee, organic California brown rice, and all sorts of organic beans and nuts. That said, I wasn't buying that much produce even though I could carry it home in a car — because my new tiny apartment only has a mini-fridge. With the amount of produce I go through on a daily basis, what I can fit into the minifridge only lasts me a half a week at most.
In any case, I nixed those carbon-intensive weekly trips as of Tuesday — which means I needed to get more creative for yesterday's No Impact Challenge: Food!
Luckily, I was recently introduced to another farmers market, one that's technically outside my city, but is nonetheless closer to my place than the farmers market that is within city limits. However, that closer market is still a little over a mile away — a too-long distance to carry more than a couple days' worth of produce.
But I'll start there for now, making sure to make the trip every Sunday. I'm also going to get a CSA subscription from a Northern California farm. Yes, the farm's farther away, but it's the only one that'll deliver to my door. The closer CSAs all require pickups, and all those pickup spots are too far away for me to walk to with a heavy load of fruits and veggies.
And though I'm done with weekly trips to the far-away co-op, I'm still planning to make monthly trips on the second Tuesday of each month, when the shop offers a 10 percent discount to members. That's when I'll stock up on all my bulk grains and beans and fair trade coffee, to keep it all packaging-free.
What I'm trying to point out with this exercise is that eating local and healthy can be easy, and traveling green can be relatively easy, too. But eating local and healthy while traveling green — if you don't have a bike — can be a serious challenge, due to the weight of the produce involved.
One thing I've noticed with L.A. eco-foodies is that they often choose to ignore their own fossil-fuel intensive travel miles, while getting almost fanatically obsessed with the travel miles incurred by food items before they're bought — and loaded into cars. This despite the fact that solo driving is the worst kind of travel miles, far worse than the travel miles incurred by trucks and ships that move a lot of food for a lot of people in one go.
When you go food shopping, what do you tend to focus on first? Car-free accessibility? Fair trade? Locally grown creds? Plastic packaging-free status? Organic certification?

The Brutal Truth: The 8 Causes of Obesity
By now we've all heard that America is the most obese country in the world. Every news program and afternoon talk show has produced a segment on the growing obesity epidemic. But, are you clear on what obesity really means?
What is Obesity?
The simple definition is that obesity happens when a person has an access of total body fat in proportion to the muscle mass. Most commonly, an overweight person is considered to have obesity, when their weight is around 20% or greater of what should be their normal weight.
We have all heard of the body mass index or BMI. The BMI is the standard that many will use in determining just how obese someone is. Normally, a BMI of between 25 and 29.9 constitutes being overweight. Those of the BMI of over 30 are considered to be obese.
Unfortunately in today's society, many people fall into the category of morbid obesity. This is when you have a BMI of 40 or greater or about 50-100% above normal weight recommendations.
What causes obesity?
The easy answer is that obesity happens when you eat more calories than you burn. The modern world eats too much and does little in the way of exercising. Of course, this is an oversimplification, but here are some other factors in obesity:
- Age. Unfortunately your metabolism slows down with your age. The calorie demand that your body requires for overall function begins to decrease.
- Gender. Females have a tendency to be more in the overweight range than men. This is due to the fact that men have a level of resting metabolic rate than women.
- Genetics. This is something that you have no control over. It is passed onto you from your parents. In this case, your mother has everything to do with whether or not you're predisposed to being heavy. There's a 75% chance that you may also become obese. The inverse is true for those with thin mothers. One quick caveat, there are multiple examples of people who have had heavy parents, but they themselves turn out to be physically fit.
- Lifestyle. Some factors of obesity may be your environment, but lifestyle choices such as what types of food you eat, and the amount of activity that you get each day are more important.
- Physical activity. Those who participate in regular physical activity and increase metabolism and burn more fat than sedentary individuals.
- Emotions. For many, psychological factors come into play. Emotional eaters overeat in response to how they feel. Just like any other type of addict, a good day or a bad day can both become a reason to overindulge.
- Sickness. This is an association that many do not made with weight gain or obesity and that is the fact that many diseases can cause obesity. Depression and hypothyroidism are just two examples.
- Drugs. Many medications such as steroids can cause massive weight gain.
The Impacts of Obesity
Obesity is a life threatening disorder. Not only is there a psychological impact on the individual that has obesity, but there is an impact on society as well. This is due to the multiple complications that arise from obesity itself. Obesity has been linked to higher cancer rates, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and osteopathic disorders, to name a few consequences of overeating.
If you are overweight or have been diagnosed with obesity, you must make a choice. That choice is to either suffer the inevitable consequences of obesity or do something about it. Consulting your physician is the first step in making a positive choice for your health.

When working in a collective, conflicts are difficult to avoid. People are different and think differently, so conflicts can appear because of the differences between the perspectives people have. It's normal that it occurs in working environments and should not be regarded as necessarily a bad thing. When a conflict occurs, it may also mean that there is a place for improvements and changes. So it is important how one handles the situation to make a conflict turn into an experience to learn from. Here are some conflict management techniques to help ease the conflict and improve the situation:
The Competing Method
Known both as competing or forcing, it means to hold firmly onto your own opinions and concerns, regardless of the level of resistance you receive from your opponent. It is a technique used when you meet hostility and aggression because it can come with a quick solving of a conflict, especially when other methods failed. But this method may be energy consuming, so if you choose it you should be prepared for a long battle.
The Collaborating Technique
As the name suggests it, this involves a more diplomatic approach to the problem. You should try to work with the opponent and try to find a middle ground solution for solving the issue so that you are both content in the end. This method is more beneficial because it gives both parties the opportunity to collaborate together, creating a solution that is much better compared to the previous method. It increases both the satisfaction of solving the conflict and of being able to create a better solution.
The Compromise
You already know that by accepting a compromise, both parties agree to a solution that only partially satisfies both of them. It is one of the fastest ways to solve a conflict, and may be best when there is little time to resolve the conflict. It may also be adopted as a temporary solution, while still searching for a way to satisfy both parties, because it can lower stress levels, allowing you and your opponent to concentrate better on finding a middle ground.
The Withdrawing Technique
When using this method, it means that you will let go of any of your concerns and opinions, avoiding the conflict by all means. It may be a solution when you are facing aggression, as it will give you time to focus on more important aspects or will allow the creation of a better mind-set to express your point of view.
The Accommodation Method
Also known as smoothing, it means to put another's concerns in front of your concerns. It may help to find what are the best interests, leaving aside the ones that are not that important. Also, it gives you the opportunity to look at the issue using different perspectives. Although, be cautious, as there is the risk of being abused or for the opponent to take advantage of you. There is a certain balance and skill from your side, to avoid these things from happening.

Vans Brand Anthem Parade
Joel Fox and Ross Harris - Direction and Creative Direction Produced by F360
Want to make a parade celebrating the spirit of a fun and classic Vans brand??? YES!
Vans approached Ross and I to bring this party to life. We started from the ground up, planning the parade and working on the creative with the Steve Zeitzoff and Jared Abe at Vans. We designed floats, costumes, lineups, and oversaw the construction. Vans artists were also invited to build their own floats and bring them into the mix. Dennis McNett built one of his iconic Pirate ships, we had a skateable pool float that gave good air, giant piñata head costumes of skate heros (who were also in attendance), a marching band, giant shoe costumes, walk around trees, Muno, a foot and ankle go-cart, even a mosh pit and float for band Muncipla Waste.

The pictures below illustrate the different color combinations that my son had fun coming up with. The viewer proved to be a very engaging and educational tool. My son is still learning what colors make up each of the secondary colors (orange, green and purple). I'm glad this proved to be motivational in his learning.
|Yellow plus blue makes green
|Yellow plus red makes orange
|Red plus blue makes purple
Materials (written in order) needed:
- 2 pieces of green construction paper
- pencil
- scissors
- 3 plastic report covers; 1 each in yellow, blue and red.
- dry erase marker (or sharpie)
- glue (Elmers, or Tacky)
- paintbrush (to spread glue) optional
- hole punch
- brass paper fasteners
Step One: Folding paper (see above for reference)
- Fold construction paper in half matching short sides.
- Fold again matching short sides so it is quarter-sized.
- Turn folded paper so the fold is at the top, and fold again matching short sides. Keep the paper positioned this way for the next step.
Step Two: Cut out heart
- Draw an outline of half of a heart as shown. The mid-line of the heart is represented by the vertical fold. Make sure when drawing the outline that part of top arc of the heart is represented by the fold at the top. You want to keep this fold intact!
- Cut out heart. Remember 2 folds should remain intact. The vertical fold on the left side of paper, and a small segment of the horizontal fold on the top.
- Draw a smaller half heart inside the cut-out shape.
- Cut out. SAVE AT LEAST ONE OF THE INNER HEART SHAPES!
- Unfold the heart "window frames", and see what you've got! You should have 2 hearts that each open up at the top (see the picture above on the right).
- For this project, 3 hearts are needed, so use half of the other piece of construction paper and fold as needed to cut out the last heart.
- Using the inner heart shape cut-out as a guide, draw a slightly bigger heart with a marker (dry erase or sharpie) around it onto a report cover (1st picture, above). Cut out. Repeat so that you end up with red, blue and yellow hearts.
- Open up heart "window frame" (2nd picture, above) and dab glue on. I used a brush to spread the glue.
- Press on heart shape made out of report cover, and close "window frame". Repeat for other colors.
Step Five: Putting it all together
- Stack all 3 finished hearts on top of each other (picture not shown). Punch a hole in the base of the hearts making sure they all line up (you may only be able to punch a hole through 2 of the hearts at one time).
- Put a paper fastener through. Turn over and press down tabs.
- HE was able to manipulate it to find a butterfly shape!
- We played a game where I would ask him questions such as, "What 2 colors make green?" AND "What do the colors blue and red make?" It was so cool to see him move the color viewer to figure out the answer.
- I talked to him about the PRIMARY COLORS-red, yellow, and blue; and that combinations of these PRIMARY COLORS make SECONDARY COLORS-orange, green, and purple.
- He had fun looking through them and seeing the world in different colors
- We sung the song "The Colors of the Rainbow". It goes like this (to the tune of "3 Little Indians")
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple
These are the colors of the rainbow
The song is pretty simple, I know, and not technically correct, as technically the rainbow is made up of Indigo and violet, NOT Purple. Often when we sing this song, I state this correction. I'm not too worried though. He is in preschool. I didn't know the colors of the rainbow until high school. Purple, or Indigo and Violet, the kid is way ahead of me, either way!
Have fun crafting! If you have any other activities or relevant links that tie in with this I would love to hear about them in the comment section below!
If you liked this post and you want to stay informed of more kid activity ideas I post or find around the blogosphere, remember to "like" me on my Facebook Page! Thank you! Have a wonderful day!

Hey, I want to upgrade my current gpu to the EVGA RTX 2060 (The 1 fan version) but it says on their website that the recommended power usage is 500w while my psu has only 450w. Will this be a problem? Because I checked on a site that calculates power supply usage and it says I need 455w to run my whole system.

Since the forum is pretty much completed now, I think the story can now be told. I have started a new webmasters forum at VCTech Network, my company website. My original intention was for it to serve as a support forum and discussion for our online products and services, i.e. our blog aggregator service, URL shortener and PageRank checker, among other things. But since its pretty much close to what webmasters would want to use for their sites anyway, I thought why not expand on it? I've always wanted to run my own webmasters forum. Considering the recent spate of incidents involved in me getting banned from webmaster forums, I think that the timing could not be better.
I hereby take the opportunity to cordially invite you to the VCTech Network Forums.

RIPOFFREPORT: Response to Darren M Meade's Allegations Against Rexxfield Founder Michael Roberts on RipOffReport.com and Elsewhere (Kairos-Meade)
For Immediate Release September 16 2012
Latest News: Prosecutor testifies Darren Meade "demonstrates he is a liar for hire"
--- BEGIN Authorized Statement ---
The incessant ad hominem attacks on my character by Darren Mitchell Meade would probably need a small book to adequately address each of the many allegations. However, in the interests of brevity I will attempt to reduce my response so as to retain the reader's attention.
It is my humble request that parties interested in perceiving the truth or falsity of either Darren Meade's assertions, or for that matter my response, do consider the source of the allegations before placing any value on the substance.
The following 30-second video clip was recorded by an unknown person and distributed anonymously some time ago. Therein, Darren Meade in his own words demonstrates the gleeful satisfaction he derives from tormenting the targets of his Internet smear campaigns. In this case, it was the renowned Stanford educated physician Dr. Scott Connelly:

ESSENTIAL READING: Give Your Kids & Yourself An Intellectual Self Defense System Against Liars>>
Fight back against the modern education system which creates slaves to what they read on the Internet & the mainstream media, rather than thinking for themselves. This book teaches teens & adults how to recognize twisted truth when they see it, and demolish arguments & false allegations of unethical journalists and liars is general.
I have been asked to release certain documents which speak for themselves. They are listed herein below:
UNCUT: Full 60 Minutes TV Interview Footage with Prosecutor Ben Smith:
UNCUT: Full 60 Minutes TV Interview Footage with Prosecutor Ben Smith:
Here is Darren Meade's Litany of Allegations Against Michael Roberts of Rexxfield:
"Michael failed a polygraph"
Darren Meade's favorite quotes is "Michael failed a polygraph, it was 99% deceptive".
RESPONSE: There were three questions in the polygraph for which I volunteered (against the advice of Tracey's retired detective father), the questions and results are listed below (paraphrased as I am awaiting the official copy):
|1. "Did you help plan the attack on your wife on December 13, 2001"
|2. "Did you help plan with anyone else to break into your home on December13, 2001?"
|3. "Do you know the identity of the second person involved in the attack on your wife?"
Meade also cites Sheriff Ken McClure who said on 60-Minutes that I "failed" the polygraph. Whereas, Ken McClure was not sheriff at the time of the murder, furthermore, he sat on his hands for almost 10 years while Tracey walked free. Meade conveniently omits the Dateline NBC quote from one of the two heros who did the job that Sheriff McClure ignored; namely, Special Agent Trent Vileta The full account of the polygraph starts at 51 min 50 seconds into the Dateline show. Spec. Agent Vileta said of the inconclusive results:
|"It's hard for Michael to answer a question as to: 'do you know the identity of the second intruder?'; if he doesn't believe there was a second intruder".
~Special Agent Trent Vileta
Iowa Division of Criminal Investigations
There was never a reference to or use of the word "failure"; in the polygraph results, the operator determined the results to be "inconclusive" -- this does not indicate deception but rather confusion or anxiety in this case. There were three questions in the polygraph, although I initially strenuously defended my ex-wife's actions in the 2001 homicide, the evidence I saw with my own eyes planted seeds of doubt as to the veracity of her account of that fateful night. In fact, I never really believed there was a second intruder. The investigators told me later that belief was most likely the reason the results were ambiguous.
"Michael is a Registered Child Abuser and is on the Iowa Central Abuse Register."
Response: This is a blatant lie.

Fax to: 515-242-6884
Michael lived in Darren Meade's home:
Meade claims I lived with him, the motive is to make it seem that he knows me well. This is not true, I was a guest in his home on two occasions for a few nights max when he and his business associates were negotiating with me on the purchase of my business assets. I also stored a pallet of personal effects in his garage while I the process of relocating to California until the deal went bad and I discovered Meade's and his peers criminal past.
Numerous audio recording of meetings reveal Michael's complicity in Adam Zuckerman's criminal schemes.
Response: What Darren doesn't disclose is that either Michael or his assistant made each and every one of these recordings and provided them to law enforcement, media and Darren when we thought he was on the same team to whistle blow on the criminals in the meetings. Darren also doesn't reveal that he introduced Michael to the group which then attempted a hostile takeover of Rexxfield. [See also: Definition of spin.]
"Michael had an arrest and conviction for domestic battery in 2000."
NOTE: The irony of these allegations will not escape most readers. Darren is referring to an event on December 20, 2000 when I was wrongfully jailed overnight, and subsequently cleared. Whereas, on that very same day, Darren Meade became subject to a domestic restraining order filed by Laura J. Kelley who reported Darren Meade's stalking and violent outbursts.
Link: Darren Meade's Restraining Order by Laura J. Kelley Colorado (Dec 20,2000).
RESPONSE: True in part, lies in part. I was arrested, not convicted. On December 20, 2000 my ex-wife Tracey physically assaulted me after a customer went bankrupt owing my company $26,000. She began kicking holes in the wall of the office with her boots, I restrained her and she began stomping on my feet.
Photographs of holes kicked in wall by Tracey
After things cooled down I announced my intention to divorce. 45 minutes later I was in handcuffs and I spent the night in jail. However, what Tracey meant for evil God meant for good, and I had the privilege of sharing the Gospel with an elderly man who had intended to kill himself when he was released the next day. At that time, the other 10 inmates in the shared cell stayed awake with myself and "Jim" listening to this good news until about 5 am. Tracey begged me not to plead innocence because she said her ex-husband would use my testimony against her false allegations to gain an advantage in the custody battle of their son Bert, my stepson. I agreed to plead no contest to disturbing the peace. That way, I would not need to testify that Tracey filed a false police report. Hindsight has 20/20, if only I had done things differently, Bert & my kids would not have to have witnessed a murder; Bert would not have been forced to participate in the crime after the fact. More importantly, Dustin would probably be alive, and who knows, maybe I would be back in Australia with my children?
"Michael is a bigamist"
Darren wrote: "Tracey's husband even married another woman while still married to Tracey" and "Michael and Tracey went on with their fragile marriage that finally ended in 2008."
Response: The marriage ended in March 2004 when I survived Tracey's attempt to murder me. The judge issued an interlocutory dissolution of marriage on December 3rd 2007. I married my current wife in early 2008.
"Michael has been diagnosed with a mental illness"
These excerpts for the final decree for the marriage dissolution sums this up well:
"Tracey would, at times, give information to medical care providers, in an attempt to have physicians find that Michael has a mental condition. She would be involved when Michael was seeing his family physician… At one point Dr. Brinck, a psychologist, diagnosed Michael as being bipolar….Michael was examined by Dr. Charles E. Murphy. In Dr. Murphy's opinion, Michael is not bipolar. Dr. Murphy's diagnosis is post-traumatic stress syndrome and ADHD. The weight of the evidence establishes that Michael is not bipolar."
"Michael is a criminal hacker"
RESPONSE: Darren Meade attempted to extort from me the meager sum of $5000 in October 2011. After my refusal, he set a deadline of October 31. He followed through with his promise. In a coup d'état he was able to persuade a Fox News Journalist that I was a criminal hacker, and these allegations graced the front page of FoxNews.com on January 20, 2012.
Whereas, in the following e-mail message sent by Darren Meade to a department of justice attorney just three months before the extortion demands, Meade describes me as a victim of the crime syndicate of which he now tries to persuade readers I am a connected:
Letter from Darren M Meade to US Dept. of Justice
"Michael purchased illegal 'Google-cide injection source code' from Matthew Cooke"
RESPONSE: If this were true, I would not only be a criminal, I would be really stupid. I don't think too many people would be willing to memorialize in writing a purchase contract for an illegal hacking technique, this contract was actually checked on my behalf by attorney Scott Chapman of Henderson Nevada. It wasn't until after Mr. Cooke pitched 2nd generation techniques that I began to wonder if he was hacking.
Purchase Contract for the "Cool Technique".
"Use of hacking code via the Internet to tamper with the jury convened for ex-wife's murder trial."
RESPONSE: This allegation is simply absurd. However, if we were to entertain the suggestion for a moment, an objective reader should be able to just as quickly dismiss it because Darren Meade did not raise this allegation until long after my ex-wife's murder trial; more to the point, he did not raise this allegation until he realized that his other character attacks were not gaining the traction he had hoped. In fact, this gradual escalation and elevation of flaming aspersions is his modus operandi in any distortion campaign he runs, no matter who the target.
"Witness Protection Program."
Darren M Meade alleges that: Iowa prosecutors allowed me to stay in a witness protection program so that my ex-wife's defense attorney could not serve me with a subpoena.
RESPONSE: The fallacious nature of this allegation is evidenced by the following facts (a) the program that was protecting my children and me was under the California Secretary of State,
(b) the murder was being prosecuted through the state of Iowa and
(c) Iowa officials have no say in what the California secretary of state does for its residents.
"Michael Was Founded for Child Abuse and is on Central Abuse Register."
RESPONSE: This is true; however, the findings were reversed soon thereafter. Darren Meade in keeping with his distortion tactics (watch, he will start using this term to describe me soon) is taking a snapshot in time, but not giving the reader the benefit of subsequent events. His propensity to do this should give readers cause to dismiss everything he writes as deceptive.
Subsequent report leading to reversal of child abuse finding.
Nevertheless, the findings were based on the testimony of Tracey Richter and Bert Pitman. Tracey is a three times convicted felon for and Bert is being considered for criminal prosecution for perjury during the murder trial of his mother. This is a matter of public record.
- Tracey Richter Perjury Conviction Clay County Iowa
- Tracey Richter welfare fraud conviction Douglas County Nebraska (Plea bargain downwards from original 3rd degree criminal impersonation)
- Tracey Richter's Conviction for Murder in the first degree Sac County Iowa
- Tracey Richter's Harassment charges Pocahontas County Iowa (resulting from foiled murder for hire of me. She escaped conviction of this one)
Tracey was also indicted as a result of an FBI investigation into passport fraud. She successfully obtained a passport using false name and was considered a flight risk.
Link: Tracey Richter's indictment FBI investigation into passport fraud
Tracey was also found to have forged the final the force divorce decree between the two of us, wherein she added a clause giving her permission to get passports for our children without my permission.
Sheriff's report on divorce decree forgery by Tracey Richter
Moreover, Judge Duffy, in his (genuine) final divorce decree found as follows:
"Tracey is very deviceful; She usually has a plan or scheme to effect a purpose. The following incidents establish crafty schemes by Tracey:….One week after Michael filed the petition for dissolution of marriage, Tracey filed a petition for relief from domestic abuse….Tracey used this process in an attempt to gain advantage over Michael on the custodial…..Tracey has made attempts to establish that Michael has committed child abuse…In fact,. she conceded that it was not child abuse. Later, Tracey made vigorous attempts to obtain a founded report.
There is no founded child abuse report to support Tracey's theory of child abuse by Michael. The court finds that Tracey has failed to establish that Michael committed child abuse…. The Court also finds that Tracey has failed to establish a history of domestic abuse."
"Firearm offences"
Darren wrote:
"Michael is photographed with one of many handguns he purchased in violation of Court Orders after his conviction of Spousal and Child Abuse. The photograph is with a sniper rifle. Police reports allege he threatened to kill a Chicago detective with a sniper rifle and that he (Roberts) is a very good shot. Roberts is on an audio recording with another young man he mentors discussing having this young man kill someone to 'protect the inner sanctum' or Roberts new business enterprise with a .50 caliber hollow-point bullet which just explodes his brain, the same as used by the rifle in the photo with Roberts above."
- I have never violated a court order (with the exception of being in arrears for child support due to injuries sustained during an attempted murder at Tracey's hand in 2004)
Approval from Iowa Dept. Justice Crime Victims Compensation Program for medical expenses incurred after attempted murder.
- I have never been convicted of spousal OR child abuse. [Link: Proof]
- I have never owned, held, touched or fired a 50 caliber weapon.
- The photograph of the rifle to which Meade refers was taken in the late 90s, five or six years before my ex-wife temporarily obtained a restraining order prohibiting me from buying firearms. This order was dismissed after it was determined the allegations were unfounded in order to gain an advantage in the child custody issues.
- The police report in question was filed by Tracey's younger brother, Detective John B. Richter of the Chicago Police Department. He made this report on October 29, 2011 this was the Saturday immediately following the first week of his sister's murder trial and by this time it had become apparent that things were not going well.
- Detective Richter, to the best of my knowledge is currently being investigated by the Chicago Police Department internal affairs, and the civilian oversight organization to which Internal Affairs answers called "City of Chicago Independent Police Review Authority". [Complaint ID : OPS-9432]
- Coincidentally, both Darren Meade and Detective John Richter apparently reported that unknown persons had thrown rocks or bricks through their windows at about the same time (I do not have dates). Darren was in California, Richter was in Illinois.
- I am not in an audio recording discussing killing someone with a 50 caliber bullet. I was present with an individual who made the statements, and I was the person recording the conversation and who subsequently provided them to Darren Meade and law-enforcement because Darren Meade was the "someone" the person was fantasizing about killing.
Coming Soon: Copy of police report containing the allegations of Tracey Richter's brother Detective John Richter dated October 29, 2011.
VIDEO/Audio snippet of the .50 Caliber monologue.
"Michael bought a house for another woman in Florida in 2004."
RESPONSE: Whereas, Tracey went to Florida first to look at houses, she sent Michael and his stepson and son to Florida a week or two later to look at her short list. He signed a contract on the house they both agreed was best. While Michael was in Florida, Tracey flew to London to be with her lover Tom Buehlmann. I had previously discovered this relationship, I confronted Tom by telephone. He apologized and said he had no idea she was still married and promised that it would not continue. Tracey's relationship with Tom began late December 2003 or very early January 2004. I did not meet the "other woman" referred to by Darren until April 1st, 2004 after I realized that Tracey's affair with Tom was ongoing.
"Michael stole Tracey's identity"
RESPONSE: Tracey's team is getting good mileage out of this allegation. In 2005 or 2006, I leased a large Dell computer/server through "DFS" which is Dell Financial Services. Unbeknownst to me, the lease had both my name and Tracey's name attached to it from previous purchases while we were still together. Tracey filed a police report for identity theft, she also filed allegations in the civil divorce process. I contacted Dell, they removed her name, end of story.
"Michael found shell casings at murder scene."
Darren wrote: "Michael Robert claimed to have then cleaned the home and located shell casings within an hour of taking possession of the home that were missed by CSI investigators."
RESPONSE: This is just one of many examples of the incompetence of the investigators and earlier prosecutor who let the murder go unpunished for almost 10 years.
"Michael's relationship with Dustin Wehde, Tracey's murder victim."
Darren wrote: "In his mentorship of Dustin, Michael had Dustin work on creative writing exercises that often were violent in nature."
Response: Says who Darren? Please provide original source documentation, or a witness who has not been convicted of either murder or perjury.
"Crime Scene Photos"
Darren wrote: "The crime scene photos were shown to me personally in 2010 by Michael." (referring to a document referencing the 'pink notebook' evidence).
Response: I challenge Darren to testify to this under the penalty of perjury.
"Life Insurance on Tracey & Michael's kids"
Darren wrote: "Tracey had a considerable life insurance policy as did the children."
Response: Tracey had taken out $100,000 insurance policies on each of the three children before the murder. She had asked me to co-sign this one night when insurance agent was in our home, I refused because I thought the idea was repulsive. However, I finally consented to a $10,000 funeral policy for each of the kids under protest because she just wouldn't leave me alone. Evidently, the documents subsequently placed before me to sign were in the full amount of $100K as later attested by insurance agent later.
Furthermore, in the year before the murder Tracey had stacked my life insurance policies with at least three, possibly four policies totaling somewhere in the range of 3 to 5 million dollars. I did not know about this until I filed for divorce in 2004 and her first husband, Dr. John Pitman, told me I need to go looking for them. I did, and what I found blew me away. While Tracey was visiting her lover Tom, I received documents in the mail from lifequote.com where she had applied for an additional $1 million in coverage of my life only a few days before she attempted to murder me in March 2004 by drugging and suffocation. This was followed up by an e-mail message after I diverted Tracey's business e-mail address to mine.

The engine is the heart of your car. It is a complex machine built to convert heat from burning gas into the force that turns the road wheels. Read more
The conversion of fuel energy into power in an engine starts when petrol is mixed with air in a device called a carburettor, to form a highly combustible mixture. Read more
A car engine burns a mixture of petrol and air. Petrol is pumped along a pipe from the tank and mixed with air in the carburettor, from which the engine sucks in the mixture. Read more
A carburettor mixes fuel and air in the proportions and quantity the engine needs at any time. Read more
The fixed-jet carburettor resembles the simpler variable-jet type (See How variable-jet carburettors work) in having a venturi - a constricted neck - through which air flows on its way to the engine. Read more
Internal-combustion engines run at high speeds, so a reduction in gearing is necessary to transmit power to the drive wheels, which turn much more slowly. Read more
A car uses quite a lot of electricity to work the ignition and other electrical equipment. Read more
A car engine produces a lot of heat when it is running, and must be cooled continuously to avoid engine damage. Read more
The steering system converts the rotation of the steering wheel into a swivelling movement of the road wheels in such a way that the steering-wheel rim turns a long way to move the road wheels a short way. Read more
For an engine to work at its best, the fuel/air mixture in each cylinder must fire just as the piston reaches top dead centre (TDC). Read more
There are various ways of attaching the wheels of the car so that they can move up and down on their springs and dampers, and do so with as little change as possible in the distance between adjacent wheels or in the near-vertical angle of the tyres to the road. Read more
In a front-engined rear-wheel-drive car, power is transmitted from the engine through the clutch and the gearbox to the rear axle by means of a tubular propeller shaft. Read more

The first stage in the transmission of a car with a manual gearbox is the clutch. Read more
To make an engine start it must be turned at some speed, so that it sucks fuel and air into the cylinders, and compresses it. Read more
The electrical system of a car is a closed circuit with an independent power source the battery. It operates on a small fraction of the power of a household circuit. Read more
The suspension system affects both the driver's control of the car and the comfort of the occupants. The springs allow the wheels to move up to absorb bumps in the road and reduce jolting, while the dampers prevent bouncing up and down. Various mechanical links keep the wheels in line. Read more
The valve which allows mixture into the cylinder is the inlet valve; the one through which the spent gases escape is the exhaust valve. They are designed to open and close at precise moments, to allow the engine to run efficiently at all speeds. Read more

Traditionally, diesel engines have always been seen as noisy, smelly and underpowered engines of little use other than in trucks, taxis and vans. But as diesel engines and their injection system controls have become more refined, the 1980s have seen that situation change.

Europe here I come!
See you all soon!
7 comments:
Have a great time! So jealous about your Euro trip:)ReplyDelete
You're as excited as I'd be if I went to the other side of the world, i.e. Australia.ReplyDelete
In Rome, check out the drugstore chain COIN for cheap/medium-priced brands like Catrice. They have a store in Termini Station.
In Paris, besides the huge Sephora store on Champs Elysées - that was so crowded we had to leave or else suffocate- check out the Galeries Lafayette counters. We couldn't go to Printemps because it was pouring! Other than that, their drugstores are similar pricewise to what we have in most Spanish cities and not that exciting. The most common ones are Marionnaud, Nocibé and Yves Rocher, imo.
In London, besides Harrods, Debenhams, Harvey Nichols and the like, the go-to drugstores are Boots and Superdrug. There are three TK Maxx stores, but I really wasn't into makeup when I went to London, so don't really know if they're worth a visit. There are several large malls in the city (Westfield - Sheperd's Bush).
Never been to Asia, but I don't think you need advice on that, do you?
You're doing England, France and Italy in Europe. Why not SPAIN, may I ask?? -- Offended Spaniard-- ;)
Enjoy the Honeymoon and Europe! The weather is beautiful now, great idea to have postponed the honeymoon till now.ReplyDelete
Travel safe! I hope you enjoy Europe ^__^ too bad you're not coming to Portugal, I would love to meet you! :DReplyDelete
Europe is such a nice country.. But i would like to tell you that travelling Nowra Australia is great also..ReplyDelete
I am so jealous!I wish I could take some time off and return to London,Rome and Paris.As for shopping tips,I don't know what to say.Follow the locals and see where they shop...They know the best and cheapest places.This goes for food too...This way you will enjoy real,traditional food at normal prices.ReplyDelete
Oh, wow, I hope you guys are having an amazing, amazing trip! Pack cool for HK because it's already crazy humid out. ;o)ReplyDelete
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and comment! I love reading your feedback and suggestions and truly appreciate each and every comment. I try to respond to all my questions as soon as I can in the comments so make sure to check back later.
