Spring is a great time to spruce-up your home and leave behind all of winter's woes. The harsh winter weather can take a toll on your home, and green grass and long sunny days means the home improvement season can begin in earnest. Check out these brilliant new products to add style, efficiency and value to your abode this spring.
Brush on a paint finish that's truly green
If painting is on your spring to-do list, ensure that the endeavor is healthy for you, your family and the environment with Mythic Paint [1]. Mythic is the first and only high-performance paint guaranteeing zero VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and zero carcinogens, with virtually no odor. Available in 1,232 colors, with both interior and exterior formulations, Mythic's latex formulations have equal or better application properties with three to seven times the durability of traditional paints (independent scrub tests by a leading paint-testing facility have proven their out performance). They can also be mixed to any color using Mythic's toxin-free coloring system and MatchRite Color Matching software.
Save water in style
Continuing on a green home improvement products theme, update both your bathroom's style and water efficiency with fixtures from Moen's new Rothbury collection [2]. Rothbury faucets incorporate a water-saving aerator which allows water to flow at 1.5 gallons per minute (gpm) versus the traditional aerator flow rate of 2.2 gpm. It's a difference you won't feel in water pressure or flow when you use these smart, beautiful fixtures, but one you'll definitely see the difference in your shrinking water bill.
Taking cues from the popular cottage style of decorating with its blend of vintage inspiration and classic masculine lines, Rothbury fixtures feature low-arc spouts and elegantly styled handles and hubs. The collection includes a two-handle centerset faucet, two-handle widespread faucet, a suite of coordinating accessories, and tub/shower, shower-only and valve-only trim options to be used with Moen's Posi-Temp and Moentrol shower valves. And in case you need to upgrade the style of your bath later, Moen's M*PACT valve system makes it easy and quick; just unscrew the handles and spout, lift them out, and replace them with the new style. Changing the shower trim is easy, too.
Rothbury fixtures are available in Chrome, LifeShine Brushed Nickel, Antique Bronze and Oil Rubbed Bronze, and you can shop the options and accessories with a visit to Moen [2].
Sweep in a solid footing
Installing a paver patio is a great home improvement project that will step up the value and appearance of your home, and Quikrete's PowerLoc Jointing Sand ensures solid, sure-footed results. This polymer-modified, graded sand is specially designed to be swept into the paving stone joints of interlocking pavers, bricks, patio blocks and concrete slabs. Once it's placed and dampened, non-staining PowerLoc hardens to lock pavers in place, resulting in a surface that's resistant to erosion, weed growth and insects.
Depending on the joint design and pavers you're using, a 50-pound bag of PowerLoc can cover anywhere from 50 to 55 square feet of tumbled pavers, to 85 to 90 square feet of regular pavers. Check out Quikrete's PowerLoc page [3] for a Jointing Sand Calculator and more information.
Make a luxurious entry
Curb appeal begins at the front door, and Pella [4]is introducing luxurious wood entry systems to complement your home and inspire the envy of your neighbors. Expertly crafted from Mahogany, Rustic Walnut, American White Oak and Cherry, these beautiful doors possess quality construction and distinctive details that reflect the look and feel of fine furniture. The collection also includes dramatic new styles, sizes and shapes, and decorative insulated glass options accented by metal Caning and hardware in a variety of tones.
In addition to new wood entries, Pella offers stylishly designed fiberglass and steel entry door products to coordinate with a range of home designs for all your spring home improvement projects and more.

and a few magnets
The motors both rotate at 1000 rpm with no load going (mA value 200 mA) from 1000 to 2000 rpm takes relatively not that much extra PWM.But what if both rotate at 1000 rpm with a load going (mA value 1000 mA) from 1000 to 2000 rpm takes more PWM (If the max RPM can actually be reached!).So I thougt: what if I know the actual RPM and current value? Maybe I can optimize the PID algorithm with the extra data?Maybe I first have to do some testing to see what really happens...... Cheers.
At the moment I have two magenets/wheel. I can increase this to four? It will give a more accurate reading at low RPM, but I don't know if the interrupt can handle (12.000 pulses/minute max.)?

Cute but uncomfortable.
"Shoes are really cute but they aren't comfortable.They run true to side however the heel is extremely high and it doesn't feel that stable. I like these shoes but I can't walk in them. I would recommend this for anyone who likes to take a walk on the wild side."

To build a foundation for college and career readiness, students need to learn to use writing as a way of offering and supporting opinions, demonstrating understanding of the subjects they are studying, and conveying real and imagined experiences and events. They learn to appreciate that a key purpose of writing is to communicate clearly to an external, sometimes unfamiliar audience, and they begin to adapt the form and content of their writing to accomplish a particular task and purpose. They develop the capacity to build knowledge on a subject through research projects and to respond analytically to literary and informational sources. To meet these goals, students must devote significant time and effort to writing, producing numerous pieces over short and extended time frames throughout the year.
Beginning in Kindergarten with the guidance and support from adults students need to use digital tools to produce and publish writing including collaboration with peers. This standard continues to grow with each grade level until students will add more types of technology including the internet to produce and publish a variety of types of writing and be able to collaborate with others while they edit and share their writing. California State Department of Education
Students can meet the requirements of many of the Common Core Standards in the area of writing by using Pixie 3 to complete special projects like those created by the students in this area.

"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
'Joseph Andrews' was written by Henry Fielding (1707 - 1754). Fielding spent his early education at Eton, after which he befriended many leading British politicians and finished off his education in Europe, at the university of Leiden. Fielding is best known for his political and cultural satires, producing articles for Tory periodicals as well as larger works. He also worked as a magistrate and helped establish London's first police force, The Bow Street Runners in 1749. This work contains an introduction to the text by George Sainsbury, as well as an additional note to the general introduction. It also encompasses an author biography, briefly detailing Fielding's life and work. It is split into four main sections and twenty six individual chapters.From the Back Cover:
Joseph Andrews, first published in 1742, is in part a parody of Samuel Richardson's Pamela. But whereas Richardson's novel is marked by the virtues of female chastity and the triumph of steadfast morality, Fielding's Joseph Andrews is peopled with lascivious women, thieves, hypocrites, and general fools. As we follow the characters in their travels, what unfolds is a lively panoramic satire of mid-Georgian England.

Virgin Blue Fast Forwards Flights To Tassie18/10/2004
Direct Melbourne-Launceston Service From Nov 8
Virgin Blue will begin flights between Melbourne and Launceston three weeks ahead of schedule from November 8, in response to overwhelming public demand following the collapse of Ansett Mark I.
Virgin Blue had committed to begin services to Tasmania at the beginning of December but fast-tracked the original route launch plan in light of the current capacity crisis facing Tassie travellers.
Virgin Blue's latest brand new Boeing 737 Next Generation aircraft will touch down in Australia tomorrow and spend a brief period being "Virginised" before being put in to service on various routes including the new Melbourne-Launceston flights.
To celebrate the early arrival of Virgin Blue, a number of $50* one way flights are up for grabs for bookings made within the next 7 days, for travel from November 8-November 14.
Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said "We are very aware of the difficulties currently facing travellers, especially in the lead up to the busy Christmas period, and are happy to be able to introduce our service to Tasmania early. We have also confirmed the delivery of five additional aircraft to be in service by the end of this year, and those aircraft will be deployed to routes where there is the greatest need. Tasmania has limited alternate travel options and is therefore a top priority for Virgin us."
He continued, "The demise of Ansett is having an adverse impact on the tourism industry, as well as individual travellers, and Virgin Blue is increasing its growth plans sooner than expected to try and alleviate some of the pressure regarding lack of seat availability and high prices in the Tasmanian market."
Virgin Blue expects to carry Guest number 2,000,000 next week, two months ahead of projections and just three months after welcoming its 1-millionth passenger.
"The Australian aviation industry is experiencing one of its most volatile periods ever. Virgin Blue recognises the need to be flexible, pro-active and responsive to changing circumstances while at the same time bucking the current high airfare trend and maintaining low fares.
We have increased our expansion plans thanks to the hugely committed and talented people at Virgin Blue, who are working their hardest to ensure we continue to increase frequency on existing routes and open up new destinations across Australian, including other Tasmanian centres ", Brett Godfrey finished.
Virgin Blue operates the most modern, technologically advanced aircraft in Australia today, with an average age of less than 5 years, compared with Ansett's average fleet age of 11.7 years and Qantas with an average fleet age of 10.8 years (Salomon Smith Barney 2001 Fleet handbook)

Really bad animation. Music felt off. Everything looked ridiculously slow, and it was supposed to be a battle of speed. Major let down in that sense. But the good thing is we're finally to the GOOD stuff in the war, and the fillers show us the much-awaited Kakashi Rampage.

Statement by Ambassador Herman Schaper at the 2011 second regular Session of Executive Board of UN Women
Women: Statement by Ambassador Herman Schaper at the 2011 second regular Session of Executive Board of UN Women
Statement by
H.E. Ambassador Herman Schaper
Permanent Representative of the Kingdom of the Netherlands
on the occasion of the 2011 second regular session of the Executive Board of the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women)
NEW YORK, 5 December 2011
Madame Chair,
Introduction The Netherlands would like to commend UN Women with the important steps it has taken since its establishment: UN Women has elaborated and is implementing a focused and highly relevant Strategic Plan, has appointed a new and committed management team and is now proposing a thorough Institutional Budget for 2012 and 2013. UN Women's objectives are very much in line with the objectives of the Dutch international gender policy and we look forward to continuing and intensifying our cooperation.
Evolution towards a results and field focused organization The Netherlands welcomes the continuously strong focus of UN women on measurable development results in the field. We appreciate the approach to make a transition from a highly centralized organization to a field-focused organization and to scale up activities and work through larger and fewer programs. This will allow UN Women to dedicate more time and resources to strategically support and influence policy development at national and international level. We believe there is a central role to play for UN Women in this regard.
Internal organization It also is very well understood that UN Women still faces important work to be done in improving the internal organization before it is fully equipped to fulfill its mandate. We also recognize the enormous challenge for UN Women to have the right persons in the right place, train existing staff to adjust to new roles and to fill the more than 100 new posts adequately. This will be crucial in order to achieve the objectives of the Strategic Plan which we all agreed upon earlier this year.
Cost efficiency We are also pleased to see efforts to increase cost efficiency as reflected for example in the organizational efficiency initiative and the fact that the non-post costs have been considerably reduced in comparison to the baseline of 2011. We encourage UN Women to maintain this focus on promoting cost efficiency within the organization and in its cooperation with other UN agencies and implementing partners.
Institutional Budget We appreciate the step by step approach chosen to develop the organization and also welcome the realism demonstrated in developing this Institutional Budget which is transparent and in accordance with the SP it supports.
Madame Chair,
Funding and extra Netherlands support I commend UN Women with achieving a 35 % increase of available resources, compared to 2010 and support further efforts to increase the funding base and extend partnerships. In this regard it is my pleasure to announce an increase of 2 million euros of the Netherlands general contribution to the 2011 un-earmarked core resources of UN Women. With this increase we have tripled our general contribution, compared to 2010.
We also decided to increase our earmarked support to UN Women, especially by supporting Gender Equality Fund activities in the Middle East and Northern Africa region. Also, the Netherlands will finance UN Women activities in support of women's leadership and participation in political processes and government in Morocco and Egypt in the coming years. Together these new contributions amount to another 3 million euros.
Butterfly effect To conclude, we trust that this support and all other activities of UN Women will have the butterfly effect as our women's representative called it in her statement to the GA on the advancement of women: how something small (a butterfly flapping its wings) can change it all – bring a new wind of equal rights and opportunities for women worldwide.
Thank you.

It was a difficult year to be a young team in the North Shore Conference.
With veteran programs like Whitefish Bay, Germantown and Port Washington leading the way, experience won out in most cases.
So Knights coach Paul Hepp was not totally unhappy with the 9-13 record his youthful squad turned in.
"This was the best I've seen the North Shore Conference in 14 years," Hepp said. "Top to bottom it was just very competitive, and we just didn't have a lot of seniors to work with."
Nicolet's only seniors were Sam Goldberg and Jahred Washington, and the Knights often depended junior guards Myles Henry, Jarel James, Tre Kinlow, Clem Robinson and Jeff McClain.
Washington and sophomore Cinmeon Bowers gave Nicolet a post presence.
Another sophomore post, Christian Griggs-Williams, played well in the two tournament games.
"I thought the kids responded well even after tough losses or a stretch of losses," Hepp said. "They were able to put things behind them and by the end of the season I thought their work ethic was equal too or even better than it was at the start of practice."
With just a few breaks, a 6-15 season could have easily been a winning campaign for the Highlanders.
"We have a good argument for that," Homestead coach Ray Curry said, "especially given how many close games and missed opportunities that we had. We came in late again (because of the state football playoffs) and started slowly but after a few weeks we honestly looked better than we did when we had that situation last year."
Homestead became good at gaining leads but not holding them. In one case, they had co-City Conference champ Hamilton on the ropes in the final of the Chekouras Classic in December but could not hold on.
"Mistakes at bad moments would really hurt us," Curry said. "We had athletes and strength but what we needed were just a few basketball players."
Homestead junior post John Laihinen averaged 11.7 points and 7.9 rebounds per game. He and senior Shelby Harris formed a formidable post combination for the Highlanders who frequently struggled from the perimeter.
Other seniors included Casey Barnes, Tyler Rembert, Grayson Driscoll, Alex Bangert and Stephen Sullivan.
For the first time in years, the Highlanders will return their top scorers in Laihinen and guard Coy Smith.

The Falcons lost 97 percent of their scoring from their Woodland quad-champion and WIAA sectional finalist from a year ago and got their first new coaches in 25 years.
Despite that, the Falcons, who were not picked to win more than five games by the Wisconsin Basketball Yearbook, were competitive for much of the season and finished 10-12.
"We knew what we were getting into and it didn't matter," Falcons co-coach Andy Bauschelt said. "We're working to see the program flourish in the long run. We had a nice group of seniors who worked hard and now there's a nice group working its way through the middle school."
Bauschelt and co-coach James Flegel took over for longtime coach and athletic director Mike Novak. The players they did inherit were inexperienced; Novak's last group included 11 seniors.
The pair was happy for the leadership and hard play they got out of seniors like Christopher Morgan, Steve Zielinski, James Hicks, Quantavious Tucker, Justin Gordon, Deiryon Nicholson and Nate Seefeldt. A late-season leg injury to Zielinski limited the only legitimate size the Falcons had this winter.
The team's future will be led by sophomore second-team All-Woodland North selection Jaleel Queary and sophomore honorable mention Joziah Mallett. Fellow sophomores Keone Moore and Kierre Ogbanna also got earned experience this season.
Highlights included wins over Wauwatosa West and WIAA regional champion Whitnall as well as a stretch midseason during which the team won six of seven.
We really saw a lot of improvement and James and I learned a lot," Bauschelt said. "Now it's up to the sophomores. They know what they have to do to improve for next season. And it'll be a different situation next year. Not many people believed in us this year. Next year, expectations will be much higher."
Shorewood finished a rough season well.
The Greyhounds, who were 6-16 overall (5-11 conference), won half of their final six games of the season during a stretch that included games with tough opponents like Wauwatosa West, New Berlin Eisenhower (twice), Pewaukee and Whitefish Bay.
"I think that 95 percent of the coaches would be happy going 3-3 against that group," Shorewood coach John Hoke said. "I was happy we finished as strong as we did. We played 11 games against teams who reached the regional finals and five or six with teams who made it into the sectionals. It was a demanding schedule."
Shorewood's seniors were Antwain Barfield, Robert Duffy, Tony Hackett, Malachi Krishok, Charles Miller, Anthony Oliphant, Josh Rathkamp and Marc Mitchell. Barfield was a second-team all-conference choice.
"As a group these seniors were very selfless guys," Hoch said. "I'm proud of all these guys.
"Anthony did a 180 this year. He always gave effort, but the results were unbelievable in the last month. I am so proud of how far he's come as a player. It would have been easy for him to give up, but he never gave up."
The Greyhounds lost six games by nine combined points.
"One of the main goals we met were we were competitive this year," Hoch said. "I wish at the beginning of the season, we learned to control things at the end of the game like we did at the end of the season. We learned from that. You have to look at the big picture and I think we've come a long way. The main thing is we're competitive now."

Throughout the year 2nd Saturdays offer more opportunities to view artists at work in the River Arts District.
Great concerts are always going on in Asheville from Nine Inch Nails and Wide Spread Panic earlier this month to Amy Grant at UNC Asheville. The Mountain Oasis Festival that took place at the end of October is a new electronic music festival in Asheville that everyone is very excited about. It was a great success and is sure to return to Asheville.
Asheville has always been known for electronic music thanks to Bob Moog, the inventor of the Moog Synthesizer. Moogfest, the annual music festival to honor Moog has been moved this year from October to April and promises to be much more than just electronic music. The daytime sessions have just been announced and tickets are on sale now for 5 days of Technology, Art and Music. There will be a wide array of workshops and speakers, a tech expo and job fair, media artists, engineers, designers, architects, philosophers, futurists and innovators of all kinds, not just musicians contributing. What will the future be like? Come to Asheville to find out!
And then, what would Paris be without food? Asheville's reputation for outstanding restaurants is growing exponentially and an event coming up November 20th is showcasing the best of Asheville's Independent Restaurants. A Taste of Asheville celebrates the 10th Anniversary of the Asheville Independent Restaurant Association and showcases 40 of the city's most talented and celebrated chefs. Find out why Asheville has the distinction of becoming one of the Southeast's top culinary destinations.

This is one of four studies Lambert made for his sculpture Recumbent figure of a soldier (Unknown soldier) 1928–30 (cat.120) commissioned in 1928 for St Mary's Cathedral, Sydney. This version would appear to be the last, and most complete, version; it is the only one which includes a drape falling from underneath the figure and over the plinth (which was not used in the completed sculpture). With its incisive lines and subtle modelling, it has a sculptural aspect.
Lambert did not make a small-scale version for this sculpture, but worked directly from the preliminary drawings and his live model to the full-scale work. His sculpture became a three-dimensional realisation of his drawings.
'It is an all-out performance in which his concept is fully expressed even to a feeling for bronze', wrote the artist Douglas Dundas of this drawing. He continued, 'the overall design is simple with a strong emphasis on the forms within it – the considered placing of hands, the searching analysis of the uniform and details of accoutrement. Yet all these are subordinate to the poignant evocation of youthful sacrifice' (AGNSWQ 1965).

Cute sandals!
"I could not decide which design I wanted so I bought both. Love them. I got the leopard and the zerbra. So cute and so comfy. The charm attached to the strap between the toes adds a little bling. I wear them everywhere I go. I just can't decide which one to wear sometimes. Great, great casual sandal."

|The Parlotones, The Parlotones
In their native South Africa, there's no rock band bigger than The Parlotones.
The Johannesburg-bred quartet have headlined the 20.000-seater Coca Cola Dome in their hometown in 2009, performed at the FIFA World Cup Kickoff Concert that was screened to an audience of
a billion in 2010, and were handpicked by Coldplay to open the British band's stadium shows in Johannesburg and Cape Town in 2011.
Since the release of the band's debut album "Radiocontrolledrobot" in 2005, Kahn Morbee (frontman and singer), Paul Hodgson (guitars), Glen Hodgson (bass guitar) and Neil Pauw (drums)
have become the biggest selling band in South Africa, achieving multiplatinum-selling status in their home country.
While "Radiocontrolledrobot" reached gold status in S/A and was nominated for Best Rock Album at 2006 South Africa Music Awards, the follow up "A World Next Door To Yours" was certififi ed
double platinum and remained on the South African Top 20 charts for more than twelve months and is still the biggest selling rock album of the last decade with having sold more than Coldplay, The
Killers and Oasis together.
The Parlotones' 3rd and platinum selling album "Stardust Galaxy" (2009), won Best Rock Album at the 2010 SAMA's and received massive attention all over the world.
"Stardust Galaxies" entered the German Top 100 sales charts and 3 Billboard Charts in the US.
Since 2009 The Parlotones have played over 500 shows in the US and Europe including G/S/A, France, Italy, Spain, Benelux, Russia and the UK where they packed out 1.000+ venues by word of
mouth alone.
Highly acclaimed by not only South African press but also US press, the last decade pave the way for what's coming next: the band's brand new studio album "Journey Through The Shadows"
"Journey Through The Shadows" is the band's fourth studio album including 12 brand new tracks of their undeniable romantic and anthemic rock sound while offering
several surprises along the way.
The fi rst single 'Save Your Best Bits', with its theme of not allowing negative things from the past to affect the good parts of your soul, and the celebratory 'I Am Alive'
are about catharsis. They chase those moments of universal human experience when everyone in the room is uplifted by a shared emotion. That theme informs the
album's title, "Journey Through The Shadows", which singer Morbee explains, is a metaphor for the human experience. "You're not given a guidebook or map at birth that
guarantees the smoothest path," he says. "Ultimately, we all walk through with a candle that only allows us to see so far in front of ourselves. You never know what's
around the corner, so it's an analogy for life."
No doubt that The Parlotones know how to create melody-minded arena-fi lling songs that transcend language and culture barriers.
"Journey Through The Shadows" will be released in 2 different formats.
While the standard package includes the full album on CD, the Limited Edition features a bonus DVD with the greatest videos of all hits like 'Life Design', 'Beautiful' and
'Should We Fight Back' as well as a never seen before Making Of footage from the recording sessions of the new album.

A Totally New 1/12th Circuit Car
Introducing the all-new Cyclone 12 pan car from Hot Bodies! This is an entirely new car from Hot Bodies for the indoor racing season. Featuring 100% Hot Bodies parts, the Cyclone 12 doesn't use any recycled parts from another supplier, it is completely fresh and all HB!
The all-black chassis is set off with just a few selected bits of purple anodized aluminium to give it an ultra-cool sleek racing look. The main chassis is cut from a single sheet of lightweight & stiff 2mm thick woven carbon fibre and has cut-outs for reduced weight at the front end. A wide front bumper will be supplied with the kit but is not shown inthese exclusive prototype pictures.
Front Suspension
The front suspension features 3-way adjustable reactive caster for the ultimate in modern pan car handling. Convenient clips are used to adjust the caster angle, making it quick and easy to try new suspension settings. The front wheels are held in place using metal locknuts for security and convenience.
Servo Mount
A micro-size servo is held in place with dual posts, angled for perfect steering geometry.
- unique option mount
An option for the Cyclone 12 will be the most unique servo mount ever seen on an electric car: the Cyclone Centre Servo Mount System. To prevent chassis tweak and provide absolutely equal flex left and right, the servo is mounted exactly in the middle of the chassis using the Hot Bodies Centre Servo Mount. This superb mounting system mounts the servo as low in the chassis as a standard two-piece mount, yet uses a single central mount to attach to the chassis. This gives the driver unparalleled consistency when going through turns, and a distinct advantage over any other chassis design.
Finally, a Battery Holder That Works
Securing the batteries in place is an unprecedented tool-less battery strap system that is new to any RC car of any scale. The Cyclone 12 uses battery trays and unique, never before seen hinged straps to provide you with safe and strong battery security. The strap system makes it fast and simple to take out and replace your batteries - no more messing about with sticky and messy tape, no tools to use, and best of all it's fast!
New Micro Shock Absorber
The rear suspension uses a totally new and exclusive micro shock that is designed and assembled just like a modern touring car damper - a rubber bladder fits over the top and the bottom cartridge utilises an o-ring seal. The threaded aluminium body also uses screw-on aluminium top and bottom caps to keep everything in place.
Rear Suspension
The rear suspension uses the Cyclone 12 Micro Shock Absorber combined with an adjustable fibreglass T-bar to give the Cyclone 12 unreal rear traction in the corners and off the starting line. The T-bar features 3 separate tweak screw locations for a wide range of adjustability, and two pivot mounts for secure and reliable performance. A woven graphite damper bar secures the rear body posts, battery straps and the damper pads, which control the amount pod action.
Rear Pod
In the rear, the motor pod is made up of two aluminium sides, carbon fibre bottom brace, carbon fibre damper plate and an aluminium tube. This gives you a secure, stiff and reliable rear pod for mounting the motor. The motor is easy to access and remove from the top, and the pod is large enough to easily fit any brushed or brushless motor. With a large cutout on the left side, all motors are easy to install and remove.
An option for the lower brace will be a finned black aluminium replacement to aid motor cooling and increase rigidity of the rear pod.
Rear Axle
The rear axle is also a completely new design made specifically for the Cyclone 12. It utilises a unique two-piece aluminium design that makes replacing worn or bent parts very easy. The axle is extremely lightweight due to the design of the left and rear hubs, and provides direct, efficient transfer of power to the rear wheels.
Top Performer
All of this adds up to a top performer and a totally new car that is suitable for any 1/12th scale circuit racer. Each of these details advances the technology of the field of 1/12th scale cars and gives you the advantage over any other racer!
The Cyclone 12 has already proven its speed when Andy Moore has taken home the championship trophy from the 2007 1/12th European Championships in Sweden!

One of the things that we love about our consumers is that they find clever ways to solve their household storage issues. We've seen our jars used in so many ways, but we still can't get enough of seeing pictures of their storage solutions.
Writer of the Sweet Tea & Lemon blog loves using various sizes of our cracker jars to organize her pantry. "These Anchor-Hocking jars were next on my list. I filled t hem with all of my baking supplies and marked them accordingly. I can't help it. I hate the look of packaged food." Read more from her blog at Sweet Tea & Lemon.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Monday July 23rd, 2012 4:29pm
The Rochester Knighthawks on Saturday announced that Gary Gait was ending his playing career to focus on another, as one of the greatest players in the history of professional lacrosse leaves to concentrate on coaching. The 43-year-old Gait departs after playing 18 seasons in the National Lacrosse League and three with the Rochester Knighthawks.
"The franchise has been great to me. They asked me to play and I did, and now it's time to focus on coaching the Syracuse Women and the Hamilton Nationals."
The 43-year-old Gait enters his fourth season as the head coach of the Syracuse University women's lacrosse team. In the past three seasons, he has led the Orange to a 47-15 record and two trips to the national semifinals (2008 and 2010). Gait was named the second head coach in the history of the Syracuse women's lacrosse program in August 2007. In his first season at the helm, he was named the Northeast Region Coach of the Year by the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA).
This summer, he will team up with Regy Thorpe as an assistant coach with the Hamilton Nationals of Major League Lacrosse.
"I am excited to be coaching on the men's side again and being back in the MLL," said Gait, who will work alongside Thorpe who brought him out of retirement in 2005 to join the Rochester Knighthawks.
Gait was acquired on October 15, 2008 from the Colorado Mammoth for forward Andrew Potter and Rochester's first-round draft picks in 2009 and 2010. He signed with Rochester two weeks later and on January 11, 2009 he made his long anticipated return. It was worth the wait for Knighthawks fans, as Gait netted five goals, including the 600th of his career, on opening night.
"It was a very special moment to have Gary a part of the Knighthawks family for a couple of seasons," said Thorpe. "He touched the hearts of the Knighthawks fans. He was the best to ever play the game."
During the past three seasons, he played in 24 games with the Knighthawks and collected 74 points (39+35). This season, he signed a one-year deal to help the Knighthawks overcome some key offseason injuries to players like Shawn Williams and Jordan Hall. The veteran helped Rochester wins its season opener and finish with a 2-2 record. He played his last game on January 29th and chipped in one assist against the Boston Blazers to finish with five points in two games (1+4).
"His experience and knowledge of the game was tremendous," said Knighthawks Head Coach Mike Hasen. "He was a calming influence on the floor and in the locker room. He showed the young guys when you stick to the game plan good things can happen."
Gait also played a role in the Knighthawks plans to get Cody Jamieson with the first-overall pick in the 2010 NLL Entry Draft. Styres pulled off two trades with the Colorado Mammoth that netted Gait, Gavin Prout and Potter, and two first-round selections in the 2010 draft. One of those picks ended up being Jamieson.
"I would like to thank Gary in helping us get Cody Jamieson," said Owner and General Manager Curt Styres. "We had a strategic plan in place to get Cody and by getting Gary to come to Rochester we were able to swap first-round picks with Colorado the next year. He was a big part of it."
Jamieson, who wore the legendary No. 22 at Syracuse like Gait, benefitted from playing with Gait. From 2009-10, Jamieson was on campus at SU and got to know one of his lacrosse legends.
"It was an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was just like a dream come true," said the 23-year-old Jamieson. "I grew up watching him play and I never expected to play with him because of the age difference. It was a testament to his character that he could play this long and shows how much he loves and cares for the game."
Gait leaves the game as the NLL's second all-time leader in goals (635) and points (1,165), while his 530 assists are fourth best. The Victoria, BC, native returned to the game with Rochester after retiring in 2005 with the Colorado Mammoth. The Wayne Gretzky of lacrosse was a winner at every level. Gait won three National Lacrosse League titles (1991, 1994-95), three Major League Lacrosse titles (2001-02, 2005), three Mann Cups (1991, 1997 and 1999), the Heritage Cup (2004) and the International Lacrosse Federation (ILF) World Championship (2006).
At the collegiate level, Gait captured three NCAA championships with Syracuse University (1988-90) and introduced the world to the "Air Gait." While at SU (1987-90), he earned All-American honors four times, including three straight first team selections (1988-90). He was also the recipient of the Lt. Raymond Enners Award (National Player of the Year) twice (1988, 1990) and the Lt. Donald C. MacLaughlin Jr. Award (Midfielder of the Year) in 1988 and 1989. What began in Syracuse in the late 80s now ends in Rochester in 2011.
"I will definitely miss the guys and the locker room," said Gait.
During his pro playing career, he was selected the league's MVP a record six times, including five in a row (1995-99). He was an All-Pro 15 straight seasons and led the NLL in points and goals seven times. In 1991 with Detroit, he was named the NLL Rookie of the Year. Gait played in seven different markets, spending time with the Detroit Turbos, Philadelphia Wings, Baltimore Thunder, Pittsburgh CrosseFire, Washington Power, Colorado Mammoth and Rochester Knighthawks. In 2006, he was selected as one of five charter members of the NLL's Hall of Fame.
"I have had the pleasure playing with Gary on a number of different teams. From the Brooklin Redmen to the Rochester Knighthawks as well as the 2006 Team Canada Field Lacrosse team," said Knighthawks Team Captain Shawn Williams. "Looking back, there was always a few things that Gaiter would bring to a team. First off, his goal-scoring and playmaking abilities are uncanny. His willingness to mentor and teach everyone around was always a help to all. Finally, his passion for the game we love was always brought to the rink with a big smile. I would like to wish the best of luck to Gaiter. The game will miss him."
Gait achieved the same success as a coach at the professional, international and collegiate levels. He enjoyed his greatest success while serving as an assistant women's coach at the University of Maryland, where the Terrapins won seven straight national titles (1995-01). On the international scene, he coached Team Canada to the 2007 World Indoor Championship. In two seasons as the head coach of the Colorado Mammoth of the NLL, he led the Mammoth to two playoff appearances and the 2006 Champion's Cup.
Gait returns to the professional coaching ranks on Saturday, May 14th when the Hamilton Nationals take on the Denver Outlaws in their Major League Lacrosse opener. Hamilton President Lewis Staats, who serves in the same capacity with the Knighthawks, believes that the presence of Gait on the coaching staff will pay dividends this season.
"Gary Gait achieved unprecedented success in the game of lacrosse as a player and we were very fortunate to have had him play in Rochester the past three years," said Staats. "What his presence brought to the entire organization is really hard to measure but we know we are a better team today because of it. I am confident that Gary will continue to make his presence felt as he was a mentor to the young players in Rochester and will also have play that same key role as one of the coaches for the Hamilton Nationals this summer. Good luck Gary and thank you for all you've done for lacrosse in Rochester."

Certainly our struggle appears to be centered around what we are doing (eating compulsively, binging/purging) or not doing (starving) with food. It seems as though whether we are dieting or caught up in a binge, all we can think about is food.*

Also hope not because it would start to show a pattern in that defeat present enemy then crazy stronger enemy comes anyway. If these people are that strong, stop trying to take advantage of tired out enemies, it makes you look weak.
But the hidden part of me would love a good all out fight with all sides at the same time possibly involved in each other's fight battle royale style, something it looked like was gonna happen on FI but it became more of a SH's beatdown.
There are more things in heaven and earth then is dreamt of in your philosophy

At some point, the idea of being a "role model" became passé, a cliché, something to be scorned. "I'm no role model," you'd hear them laugh - the athlete, the movie star, the rapper, the rocker. But in the underground, where true self-determination and up-from-the-boot-strap work ethics still reign supreme, real role models exist. Responsibility, dedication and determination thrive, living and breathing inside Full Blown Chaos.
Case in point: Belgium's Groezrock Festival. The hard-working East Coast band comes off the stage after a blistering set of metallic hardcore informed by equal parts Pantera and Agnostic Front in front of 9,000 people. Singer Ray Mazzola immediately runs to the merch tent, still sweaty from the show, and continues to bust ass, slinging merch and talking with each and every kid that comes over to meet him for the next four hours.
"I sit down and this kid comes up to me, I'm talking with him, and he says, 'I really respect that you're out here doing this. Nobody wants to do that anymore. Everybody wants to be a rock star,'" recollects Mazzola. "And I told him: You can be the drunk rock star who wants to fuck every broad in the place, or you can be the person who takes the responsibility, who wants to share their music with people, and be the role model.�
"This kid leans over to me and he goes: 'Heavy Lies the Crown.' It hit me with such intensity. And he goes, 'You know there's a lot of people out there trying to be what you are but they don't understand how much sacrifice, patience, and endurance it takes to do what you do.' From that, I was like, that has to be the title."
So let it be written, so let it be done. Heavy Lies the Crown, the Ferret Music debut from Full Blown Chaos, it took the life lessons Mazzola has learned from his heroes like Freddy Madball, Roger Miret, and Max Cavalera and put them forward into the world via the most bone-crushing metal this side of the year 2000, a sound that every bit delivers on the promise the band has shown on the road with Slipknot, Fear Factory, and Hatebreed.
The album was met with great critical acclaim. Alternative Press gave the record a 4 out of 5 rating, saying �These guys stomp much harder than Hatebreed, incorporating influences from Pantera, Slayer and even Napalm Death into their vein-popping riff-fests." Maxim also gave the album a 4 out of 5 rating, and said �The latest record from these Queens, New York natives starts off running full speed with shredding guitars and vocals that fall somewhere between the roar of a black bear and Jamey Jasta from Hatebreed.� Punkbands.com agreed, said of the album �Heavy Lies The Crown, the Ferret debut by Full Blown Chaos, is packed with snarling, gritty vocals, harsh yet decisive guitar, and 12 hard-hitting tracks that deliver a heartfelt punch every time.�
In support of the release of Heavy Lies the Crown, Full Blown Chaos has toured with Alabama Thunder Pussy, Obituary, Hemlock, Shai Hulud, The Red Death, The Breathing Process, Sons of Azrael, Despised Icon, The Acacia Strain, First Blood, Since the Flood, and more. Their live show has been known to be unrelenting in its intensity, and the band is best known for being a workhorse on tour, generally playing over 300 shows a year.
2008 was a rough year for the band not only as a musical unit but as individuals. Mike Facci (guitar) has stepped back, only to work with the band during the writing/recording process of the songs. The guitarist who has been a driving force creatively for the band since the beginning has decided that touring isn�t in the cards for him anymore. They�ve added the guitarwork of long time guitar tech and friend Mark Gumbrecht (guitar) to the lineup, giving them a two guitarist attack for the first time as a band in the writing process and they will add a �hired gun� touring guitarist to their roster. Jeff Facci is holding down the fort with his rhythmic drum assault and it is all offset by Mazzola's NYC-hardcore weaned and Anselmo-inspired vocal ferocity. The band is currently in search of a full time bass player.
�We're stoked to write music as a five piece now, to have new blood mixed into the new music.� Mazzola said. �We are excited to have a new creative entity to blend in with it. Though it�s been a bad year, things are looking up. The label is stoked on us, we're stoked on the label, as they�ve shown that they have wanted us to persevere though all the rough times this year has faced us with, we have experienced deaths in both of my family and the Facci family.�
Full Blown Chaos will spend the rest of 2008 tightening up not only their new lineup but the new direction of the band. They are demoing new material, with intentions to record it in the summer of 2009 for a fall release. Mazzola explains the band�s outlook with new members and following recent tragic events in their lives, �It�s adding another person that has the same aspirations and the same downs and ups as we do already. The sound of the new material is going to be more intense where it needs to be and heavier where it needs to be. Just from this year alone from how unfortunate this year has been for all of us, the music itself is aggressive and heavy beyond anything we've done. No matter what we do, it's going to stay just as heavy as everything else, just with a snowball effect to it. When you start an avalanche, it never seems that bad until it hits the bottom.�
Mazzola continues, �We have the time and the drive to push this new material and Heavy Lies the Crown. We�re not shunning that album because in my mind, every one of those songs has a special meaning to me. This new album is going to be just as important as a record lyrically. You know, my whole purpose is to show people and to tell people that 'You are not alone'. We�re all experiencing the same things in this band as everyone else is that buys our records. We understand what you're going through, as we�ve gone through things similar or maybe even the same. That�s the most important thing to me; it's not the selling of records or having 5,000 people at every show. If I have one person that can read my lyrics and get something from them, and realize that tomorrow will be a better day because they're not the only one suffering through their problems, that's what's most important to me.�
Starting in January of 2009, Full Blown Chaos will take their newly retooled lineup out on the road. They will headline a tour with Dirty Money, Trapped Under Ice, and Reign Supreme that will start January 3rd and run through to the end of the month. �We're excited to get back out; we were having a great time on the headlining tour with The Breathing Process and on the shows that did happen with Shai Hulud. It was very welcoming because we were off tour for quite a few months before that. Now having been off tour again for a few months, it'll be nice to get out and play some new music and see some people that we haven't seen for some time, especially with an updated lineup.� Mazzola said.

Poor sanji....he should make friends with absalom, so that they can go for peeking together...invisible....
I will leave the rest to your imagination.
I thought it was interesting the hair they gave Sanji.
*edit* Actually... Wait a minute... Absalom has bazookas strapped to his wrists that he can activate by thought... It's all so clear now... 'cause... you know, 'cause that's just... so much less weird than him being able to shoot missiles out of his hands...
Can he activate them by thought while they're not strapped to his wrists? WTH kind of power is that?
I hope in the Ryuuma/Zoro fight, Zoro expands on his "Kyuutouryuu Asura"
Looks like the spoiler is already out...no Ryuuma V.S. Zoro
hohohoho usop always got some secret weapon....
Hmmm im wondering what that star Ussop tryed to use on Absalom does?
Well I hope that we get to see more of Zoro's fight or Ussops. And what's with Nami!? How can she sleep through all those perverted comments not mention how Sanji and Absalom are breaking stuff!?
Usop still have many dials to be shown....his creativity seem limitless

Joffrey Lupul the latest Leaf team won't admit has a concussion
Cam Charron
April 05 2013 12:03PM
Before Jake Gardiner had concussion-like symptoms, Toronto Marlies head coach Dallas Eakins defiantly said that Gardiner "wasn't in a concussion state" after sustaining a hit against the Rochester Americans.
When Nazem Kadri was hit in the head, the Marlies officially said that Kadri had "headaches" and was eventually held out of the lineups for two weeks with a rib injury.
James Reimer's agent last season tweeted out that Reimer was "symptom-free since April". It was disclosed that Reimer did, in fact, miss 18 games with a concussion last season, and six at the end of the season with a more mild "upper body injury" which was apparently not related to his previous concussions.
So forgive me if I'm wary about Joffrey Lupul's injury status after Lupul took a hit to the head and got up wobbly last night against the Philadelphia Flyers.
Asked Carlyle if there are any concussion concerns with Lupul: 'No, that's a bad word. We don't use that word until we're 100% sure.'— Mark Masters (@markhmasters) April 5, 2013
Carlyle on why he's wary of saying any injury is a concussion: 'You guys report that it's this & it's that & we don't know what it is.'— Mark Masters (@markhmasters) April 5, 2013
I don't claim to be a medical expert. This sort of information is imported from South Carolina, where Jo Innes is located. Innes writes the excellent 'Quiet Room' blogs over at the Backhand Shelf and has shared her thoughts before on Lupul's back injury that kept him out of the lineup for two half seasons.
Okay, so according to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (aka VERY SMART PEOPLE), "A concussion is an injury to the brain that results in temporary loss of normal brain function"
So if you get hit in the head and are woozy after, then that could be a concussion. The NHL says you're supposed to get evaluated by a doctor if you show any of:
- Loss of consciousness
- Motor incoordination/balance problems
- Slow to get up following a hit to the head
- Blank or vacant look
- Disorientation
- Clutching the head after a hit
- Visible facial injury in combination with any of the above
Here's the hit again:
Here's the commentary from Sportsnet Ontario:
Bowen: Lupul is very slowly making his way over to the Leaf bench.
Bowen: Lupul… is really—
Millen: He's out.
Bowen: —is really woozy.
Millen: He's out on his feet. I can tell you that.
Bowen: He just got to the bench and he missed the door by about three feet.
Here's a screenshot of Joffrey Lupul missing the bench:
Here's a screenshot of Lupul on the bench:
That second image may as well be a GIF and you wouldn't be able to tell. Lupul was not moving on the bench once he got in the doorway. After the hard contact to the head, Lupul displays symptoms 2, 3, 4 and 5 that Jo listed.
There's more from Jo:
So according to the league's own rules, Lupul had signs of a concussion (I guess, I haven't seen the video). The Leafs are the WORST for not admitting when someone is concussed. THE. WORST.
So does Lupul have a concussion? Beats the shit out of me. Maybe. Do the Leafs habitually lie about what's wrong with players? Yes. Are teams ever careless about letting guys play who shouldn't? Yes. Is it a miracle none of them are permanently brain damaged? Yes. Except they ARE because Derek Boogaard and Bob Probert.
Remember, Colby Armstrong somehow missed Leafs medical testing last year and played through a concussion. It's worth noting that AFTER all this and BEFORE Lupul missed practice today, Randy Carlyle pegged his chances last night of practising at 50-50, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.
Lupul will miss some games with an upper body injury, the team won't admit he has a concussion and he'll probably come back too early, is how I guess this plays out. We've seen it before with Gardiner, with Kadri, with Reimer and with Armstrong. It's not exactly news the Leafs are terrible at handling this sort of stuff.
Updated with some wisdom from Jeffler:
Reason to be worried about Lupul - when was the last time the Leafs were upfront about a concussion?— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
Reimer wasn't the same for a year despite Wilson calling it "no big deal". Armstrong played through one. Grabovski went on next shift...— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
Liles was described as "not serious", then signed to an extension almost to prove it. Gardiner has played through them— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
Even with the Marlies. Jeff Finger's career was effectively ended by one and nobody even knows that. Ranger's concussion this year kept mum.— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
I'm just scratching the surface here, but the point is the Leafs org has had a grocery list of poorly reported concussions in the past year— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
Kadri had one this year and played the next shift. Orr's career almost ended from one in a fight.— Jeff Veillette (@Jeffler) April 5, 2013
I think Lupul has a concussion do I think its upto the Leafs organization to release to the press and the gamblers its none of their damn business, all they need is to know he wont be returning. Lupul's medical condition is not something people should actually in fact concern themselves with. If there had been "REAL DOCTORS" they aren't allowed to tell medical conditions. Its against a code of ethics, and the Law.
What should be addressed is the medical staff in allowing players to return to ice if they been injured. Management goes by what they are told by their physicans, coaches and players. Although they rarely interfer in these kinda decisions by coaches and medical staff they should. Alot of career ending injuries could be prevented by doing so.
To be truthful here fact is its not just at the major league level its throughout all levels. As long as people continue to care more about filling their pockets than caring about the people who fill them this will always be the case.
I can get where you're coming from. It's not exactly our concern how they disclose it, as long as the player doesn't play.
The following Toronto Maple Leafs have played with a concussion, known or suspected, over the last two seasons:
Nazem Kadri (suspected) Jake Gardiner (known) James Reimer (known) Colby Armstrong (known) John-Michael Liles (known) Mikhail Grabovski (suspected)
May be more actually. We have no way of knowing. What we do know is that the Leafs don't have a history of holding players out of the lineup with suspected concussions.
So management rather then leaving decisions to players, medical staff who say their clear,take it upon themselves to be more involved. Step in take action and not allow them to play even though they have been cleared by medical personnel.
How do you tell a player? Medical staff says he's clear, he feels great, you go good your off roster until I determine otherwise. A player has to be honest. The actual concussion might not actually show up for a couple days.
Thought the same with was as well, although have no degree in medical association. Doctor's are, I dont classify their medical staff as doctors so when they say doctor and not medical staff has cleared them I like to believe it was an actual doctor. Otherwise their irresponsible if an actual doctor says their ready what can you do refuse them play.

Long time reader, Cam. You are good writer.
The thing is, conflicts of interest plague the issue of head injuries.
1. Players have a vested interest in playing through their injuries. Though they puke in the toilet between periods, they want to be on the ice with their teammates, not watching TV.
2. Equipment makers have a vested interest in bullet proof kevlar (what Lupul hit before going down). Faster game, harder hits.
3. Management wants their paid workers doing their thing.
4. Doctors are paid by teams, not medical associations.
The latter two may worry about lawsuits, and this may be what eventually brings the kind of behaviour that the Leafs display to its knees. But for the moment, the incentives are stacked towards hiding the injury.
Here's a real kicker, Cam. Are we complicit, too? Check out this link to Malcolm Gladwell (old classmate of mine from U of T, hockey fan) and what he says about fan complicity in football concussions.
Maybe we have Eric Lindros to thank for breaking this open when he defied Bobby Clarke.
Keep up the good writing.

Exactly what I was expecting
"These boots are exactly as they appear on the web so I was very pleased. The fit runs true to size, but my feet are a tad wide so it was a bit narrow but nothing that was too uncomfortable to complain about. I'm only 5'7" but very leggie so these boots hit at my knee not over them but again nothing to complain about. My legs are also lean so I did have to adjust the buckles."
