Hollyoaks star Jennifer Metcalfe is set to show ex Sylvain Longchambon what he's missing after signing up for new reality show Splash!
The actress, 29, will show off her stunning figure in a swimsuit as she competes in the ITV diving competition under mentor and Olympic star Tom Daley.
Earlier this week she ordered Dancing on Ice pro Sylvain out of their home after it emerged the Frenchman was romancing new skate partner Samia Ghadie, 30, from Coronation Street.
And yesterday it emerged Jennifer had been brought in to spice up the list of 15 celebs learning to dive from 10 metres.
In the show, which kicks off on Saturday hosted by Vernon Kay and Gabby Logan, Jen joins model Caprice , Mirror gardening expert Diarmuid Gavin , TV host Charlotte Jackson , Changing Rooms favourite Linda Barker , Shameless star Tina Malone and boxer Anthony Ogogo .
The line-up is completed by comic Omid Djalili , Sugababe Jade Ewen, comedienne Helen Lederer, Benidorm's Jake Canuso, TV's Jenni Falconer, ski jumper Eddie The Eagle, TV star Joey Essex and funnyman Dom Joly.
Sylvain, 32, ended the two-year relationship on Friday after revealing he had "developed feelings" for Samia – who last month split from her long-term partner and co-star Will Thorp.
And furious Jen is now determined to hit back.
A pal said: "He's hurt her, but she's going to show him what she's made of.
"While he's lugging Samia around the ice on a Sunday, she'll be looking beautiful in swimwear on a Saturday."
Joker Jo Brand has also signed up to the show as a judge. But she admits her own attempts at diving have ended in disaster.
She revealed: "I dived into the shallow end and hit my teeth. They went through my face.
"It was like Jaws – I was surrounded by blood in the water."
Someone who has had more success in the pool is mentor Tom Daley, who says the stars will find his sport hard to master.
He said: "Once you're up there, there is no turning back. If you freak out, you freak out on live TV. You'll see lots of smacks and wallops."
And he says bravery is a vital quality for a diver, partly because: "You are half-naked in front of an audience of millions."

My 18 year old son, Kyle Nolan, died late August 2012. He's on the right in the photo, next to his triplet siblings, Marion and Kevin. Those two went off to college, while Kyle started at a nearby junior college, then dropped out. Finding his way, he didn't know what he wanted to do. He thought Coast Guard, and I encouraged him. I encouraged him anytime he had a plan.
He started reading about ayahuasca, a South American plant that supposedly has profound transformative powers. He latched on to it because he was desperate to know what to do with his life. Over and over he watched a professionally done 90 minute documentary about the Shimbre Center in Peru, "Stepping Into the Fire," where ayahuasca was the central experience. Kyle worked odd jobs Summer 2012, mainly weeding, mowing, to pay the $1200 Shimbre ten day program fee, plus the flight to Lima, Peru. It's what he wanted to do.
Both his mother and I researched Shimbre, got reassured by their website and their promotional documentary, "Stepping Into The Fire," where participants had attendants.
Had I dug deeper, beneath the promotional film, I would have found cautions and warnings, but not many, because Kyle had not yet died. Here's the response to Kyle's death from the ayahuasca community, loud and clear.
Kyle's mother and sister went to Peru from California when Kyle wasn't on his return flight to SF. They were told by the Shimbre Center that Kyle had wandered away, disconsolate, walking down the dirt road out, pulling his wheeled luggage. Then the Peruvian police got involved, shaman Mancoluto confessed he had found Kyle dead the day after the ceremony in a ditch. Mancoluto wanted to protect his business, so he carried or dragged my son's body further into the jungle and secretly buried him, and lied to the face of Kyle's mother and sister that he had simply wandered off.
Kyle was sent out into the night jungle alone after taking ayahuasca. Shimbre didn't mention this, nor that the shaman Mancoluto believes himself a 5th generation Martian who can protect those wandering in the jungle high on ayahuasca with his Martian telepathy and ESP, while he sits in his hut at the center, on a bank of batteries watching Peruvian soap operas.
Roberto Velez is the man who started Shimbre Center in Peru. Velez is a derivatives broker in NYC. He had transformative experiences with Mancoluto 2008-9, then spent a million or millions building the Shimbre Centerand making the 90 minute promotional film, Stepping Into The Fire.
For two years (2010-12) now back in NY, Velez was warned repeatedly his shaman was out of control, his particular ayahuasca brew included known toxins, esp. datura, and no one attended the ayahusaca participants wandering through the jungle. In response Velez did nothing.
Shimbre (9 miles from Puerto Maldonado) has closed down because of my son's death. The shaman got 3 years probation for secretly burying my son in the jungle.
The cautionary tale? Dig deeper.

Will a steering stabilizer help chopping on really rough roads?

Amish Communities Adopt Plastic Bearings
An Ohio-based manufacturer of horse-drawn farming equipment predominately employed by Amish communities uses iglide® plastic plain bearings from igus® on a 'crumbler' mechanism; used to crush clods of dirt during the tilling process.
iglide G300 bearings are used on each of the crumbler's eight rolling elements. Grease fittings made the rollers susceptible to dirt build-up, which eventually led to the formation of a thick sludge as the tool sat idle in-between harvests. Fortunately, iglide bearings are lubrication-
iglide plastic plain bearings are available in 28 different polymers. Every iglide bearing material possesses a number of special features, which makes it suitable for particular applications and requirements. iglide G300 bearings are cost-effective and can be paired with a number of different shafting materials. They are best for rotational and oscillating movements and low to average running speeds. They also possess a low coefficient of friction and high wear-resistance. To request free samples, call 1-888-803-1895, visit www.igus.com/

Igus® develops industry-leading cable carriers, continuous-flex cables, plastic plain bearings, linear bearings and guide systems and spherical bearings.

text: They make mult loads both standard and +P. It is important to look on the box as it will tell you which load you have. The bullets are bonded for the PDX meaning they stay attached to the case in order to give you more weight retention. I have shot multiple boxes of this ammo and absolutely love it. The bullet expansion is phenomenal, and produces a quite wicked looking slug when it is fully expanded. It is an updated version of the Black Talon/Ranger bullet line.

I'm interested in how
this has affected people's identity, mental health, physical health,
friendships, lovers, families, location, financial stability, sense of
community and belonging, as well as how these experiences relate to class,
citizenship, colonization, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and dis/ability.
Submissions can be personal stories, advice, comics, poetry, artwork, or
whatever else you can manage to get on paper. Submissions should be no longer
than around 1000 words. Anonymous entries are welcome.

need advice, help, anything, please!
Wow, where to start. I guess the beginning is always best so here goes.
I work in in a kennel of a pet store. I know, I know, boo hiss but we are not a typical pet store. We sell supplies, the only animals we actually carry are puppies. Before anyone screams puppy mill, please understand that that is not what we are about. All of our puppies are from our local shelter who we feed and care for until they are truly adopted, not sold. The adoption fee covers our cost of shots, vet visits, and microchipping. We are fortunate enough to do enough sales in supplies to be able to do this.
Here is the pickle. Two days ago a woman dropped off a VERY small yorkie puppy. He was checked by our vet and was told he is 10-11 weeks old based on his teeth. He received a clean bill of heath and we were told that while he is small...he is not underweight but proportionate to his size. He weighs in at a whopping 15 oz. Needless to say I am more than concerned. The woman claimed he's a teacup, but everything I have been told in the past is that there is no such thing. He is just under 6 inches in length and 4 inches high at the shoulders.
Something told me last night while at work to take the puppy home with me (which we are encouraged to do if we feel the puppy would not do well on its own at night in the kennel.)
Last night he crashed. he started refusing food, even the boiled chicken I cooked for him and chopped finely. He wont touch canned or kibble (we feed nutri-source grain free if you were wondering) after about an hour he started to get up and just fell over and acted as if he could not lift his head. Thinking is was low sugar, I gave him a small bead of nutristat gel on the roof of his mouth and syringed fluids. it took 2 or three times of doing this but he came out of it.
today he has been up and about but still refuses food of all kind (and is still here at home with me btw) Little guy has not left my sight lol.
I went to the owner with this information. we have made the choice NOT to allow this puppy to go out for adoption as he needs an EXTENSIVE amount of care and we fear he would not do well with someone who has no experience in this sort of ordeal.
Here is where I really need some advice. is there ANYTHING I can do to get this puppy to eat again on his own. We have had other puppies do this in the past but all have been much larger and I worry that due to his size this is much more serious. I have heard that yorkies can be picky eaters. does anyone have any tips? open to any and all help with this matter as I have become quite attached.

Does he have Parvo? My puppy wouldn't eat or drink anything and vomited clear vomit for a couple hours. He couldn't walk and only got up to vomit. Have your vet do a test for parvo. Eating isn't huge for a yorkie, as long as he is getting fluids into him for now that's all that matters.

From the WABI-TV5 & CW Forecast Center:
High pressure stretching from Ontario south into the Ohio River Valley will continue to produce a gusty northwest breeze across our region Saturday. The northwest breeze will continue to pull chilly air into New England, with high temperatures Saturday ranging from the upper 30s north to the mid 40s south. Morning sunshine will give way to increasing late day clouds Saturday as a frontal system sliding east through the Great lakes Region begins to push some of its moisture into New England.
A fast moving storm will bring some light rain and snow showers to Maine Sunday. From the Lincoln and Dover-Foxcroft areas on south most of the precipitation will fall rain, with the bulk of the precipitation north of Greenville and Millinocket falling as snow. High temps Sunday will range from the upper 30s north to 40s south.
Another cold front sweeps through the Northeast later Monday evening with a band of snow showers likely accompanying the front's passage. Behind this new cold front the coldest air of the fall season so far will be ushered into New England on a gusty northwest breeze for Tuesday and Wednesday, with parts of northern Maine likely remaining in the upper 20s for highs both days.
Tonight: Partly to mostly clear, breezy and cool, with low temps in the 20s.
Saturday: Mostly to partly sunny and chilly, with high temps in upper 30s to mid 40s.
Sunday: Mostly cloudy, with rain showers south and mixed rain and snow showers north, with high temps in the upper 30s and 40s.
Monday: Variably cloudy, breezy and cool, with possible snow showers and flurries late and at night, with high temps in the upper 30s to mid 40s.
Tuesday: Scattered flurries, blustery and chilly, with high temps in the 30s to near 40.
Wednesday: Partly sunny and cold, with high temps in the upper 20s to mid 30s.

Twitter design researcher Mark Trammell posted an update on the Twitter Blog on the microblogging service's On the Road initiative, which is described on its Twitter page as, "On a whirlwind tour across North America. Asking how folks discover what's happening." From Trammell's update:
Most everything we design and build at Twitter is refined or even created after watching how people use Twitter. So as a design researcher, I couldn't be more thrilled to be one week into a three-week-trip across North America to better understand real-life Twitter-usage and learn what we can do to continue improving the service.
User research typically is focused on how an individual uses a computer or device. Alternatively, you have the classic focus group comprised of strangers. The former can be too limiting, and the latter doesn't represent how people actually (and truthfully) interact in real life.
With Twitter, observing how different deeply connected peer groups of people use the service is critical to understanding the true dynamics of use. To do this, we need to get out in the world and watch how groups like friends, co-workers, and enthusiasts use Twitter to get information and interact with each other.
We already had some great sessions with entrepreneurs in Montreal building a community among small businesses; members of New York City's art scene sharing a world once confined inside museum walls; and, folks at @WhiteHouse and on Capitol Hill providing a view into the inner workings of government and how they use Twitter to demystify it.
Up next? Atlanta and Memphis, then west to Wichita, Denver, and Salt Lake City — with a whole bunch of stops in between. We're doing this all out of an old RV and a shoestring budget. Follow our adventures @OnTheRoad.

Infographic Tells Workers If They Should Be Freelancers Or Full-Time
Workers of every stripe are found nationwide, but some might be happier in traditional jobs.
Do you have what it takes to be a freelancer? Or would you be happier in a traditional office?
Graphic Design Degree Hub created an infographic to help you out, drawing up all the obvious and not-so-obvious pros and cons of flying solo. While freelancers cite greater compensation and better work-life balance as the rationale behind their choice, non-freelancers say a lack of health insurance and trouble finding steady work prevents them from pursuing such individual projects full-time. A map points out the top 20 metropolitan areas where freelancers are found (no surprises on that list). The graphic states:
Many freelancers self-report higher payrates, higher levels of job satisfaction, and greater work/life balance than traditional jobs. But it's still not for everyone.
Take a look to see where you might fit best:

Some Lava locals shaken by 4.2 magnitude earthquake
LAVA, Idaho - Lava locals were assessing the damages and picking up the pieces after Sunday night's magnitude 4.2 earthquake that rattled southeast Idaho.
Florence Berti lives directly on top of where the earthquake hit.
"It actually felt like a bomb," Berti said Monday. "It did. It felt like a bomb went off and I looked, and the mirror was coming up like this and coming back down like that."
Luckily, nobody was hurt, but others who also live at the epicenter of the quake experienced reactions similar to what Berti felt. Some even thought an airplane had crashed into their back yard.
"Everything checked out," Bannock County Sheriff Lorin Nielsen said. "We had a few pictures fall off the walls, but it was enough to let you know Mother Nature is in charge."
In charge, indeed.
Expert geologists said this earthquake is nothing new to the region. In fact, they estimate the majority of earthquakes that have hit within the past 50 years struck regions around Soda Springs and Montpelier.
"What is happening overall is that Oregon and Washington are spreading westward away from Wyoming and Idaho is caught in the middle," Idaho State University geosciences professor Dr. David Rodgers said.
Unlike California, where earthquakes are caused by multiple tectonic plates sliding over each other, Idaho sits on one giant plate being split apart almost resembling an accordion, Rodgers said.
Rodgers also said to give it about 15 million years before we start to see Idaho completely start to split apart, along with other regions across the western states. Meaning, in about 15 million years, the United States could possibly see islands forming in what used to be known as Idaho.
But, with relief that won't be happening for quite a long time, Rodgers also mentioned these series of small quakes southeast Idaho residents have been experiencing can possibly be a precursor to an earthquake slightly larger in scale.
"Unfortunately, someday there will be an earthquake in that area - magnitude 6 or 7. There are emergency preparedness folks all throughout southeast Idaho who know about this, and they are prepared for this. So, it's just good to keep awareness up," Rodgers said.
Nielsen said that local government officials do, in fact, have emergency preparedness plans in place in the case a larger-scale earthquake were to hit. He also said the safest place to be during an earthquake is outside, or away from anything that could fall.
But for now, everyone says, there is nothing to worry about.

(2.16 MB) Emanuel Silva To prevent window leaks — along with the mold growth, rot, and callbacks from irate clients that go with them — the author has developed a "bombproof" method of keeping window openings reliably watertight. Because window flashing disappears from sight once the window itself is in place, it's easy to rush through that part of the job and move on to something else. Windows are sometimes installed with no flashing at all, and in my work as a remodeler I often see windows that are installed right over the housewrap, with the adhesive membrane applied over both the housewrap and the window flange. That's better than nothing, but not by much — it can't stop any water that gets behind the housewrap above the level of the window, since by then water will already have gotten behind the flashing as well.To prevent window leaks — along with the mold growth, rot, and callbacks from irate clients that go with them — I've developed a bombproof method of keeping my windows reliably watertight. It includes several tips and tricks I've learned from other builders, and I'll probably continue to tweak and improve it in the years to come. The key is to... Login or Register to continue reading

I received some fantastic news two days ago. Two of my works have been accepted into The Tamarack's Best of West Virginia juried show! The Tamarack is located in Beckley WV. I am quite proud of the accomplishment and it just gives me an extra push and jolt to keep doing what I'm doing, that what is happening is very good, and that I need to celebrate. Sometimes I try to not do that so much. I don't want to feel as though I'm bragging, but the difference in celebration and being conceded is becoming much more clear.
Anyway, I'm beginning to ramble. Here are the two works that have been accepted. I'll keep everyone notified of the opening night and also the dates the show will be featured in the Tamarack gallery.

Rough idle
My 95 E38 idles rough when under 1500rpm, do anybody know why its like that? Any answers or suggestions are welcomed bmw bretheran.
War Machine
Looooooooong list. Vacuum leaks, fuel pressure, TPS, Air Mass device, Fuel filter, Spark plug(s), Coil Packs; CPS; Throttle Body settings; VANOS problems; What Codes are being displayed/stored?; Blocked exhaust; Blocked Air Filter; Fuel pump; Loose wires on the EMC loom - That should do as a start
Only codes displayed were o2 sensor then a few weeks later it said lambda, i checked for air leaks and nothing, i always knew that my fuel filter was bad, i was actualy gonna change that already, and of course my o2's. Hopefully something changes.
War Machine
How do i check the vanos? And can my fuel filter cause war machine to shake, im guessing it effects my fuel pressure?

Rated 1 out of 5 by cameron090 from Cheap and not durable for outside use. After the first day of buying this I placed it on a chainlink fence and used zip ties at every grommet to hold it down. Within 24 hours most of grommets had torn out the vinyl and caused the sign to be inoperable. Not suitable for outside use, not dependable. Very upset with this product.

If you are a new teacher or stationed in Korea you might be wondering if Netflix works in Korea.
Yes, Netflix in Korea works, in fact Netflix outside the US works everywhere in the world if you know how to do it.
To watch Netflix in Korea all you need to do is connect to a VPN, a VPN will make Netflix think you are located in the United States thus allowing access to Netflix from outside the US.
There are lots of VPN's to choose from, a free VPN for Netflix won't really work that well, they aren't fast enough to work and usually won't give you enough data to even watch a single show. If you are going to be teaching English in Korea for a year I recommend getting a paid VPN, it's totally worth it. A paid VPN will allow you to stream Netflix in Korea (or anywhere in the world for the matter) but it will also let you watch Hulu, stream Pandora and Spotify or anything else you find is blocked while your living in Korea.
What VPN works best for Netflix in Korea?
I've been using a service called StrongVPN, it works great for Netflix and has worked remarkably well from Korea. There are lots of reviews from other teachers and military members that use StrongVPN in Korea for streaming Netflix or playing Xbox Live. It's pretty cheap for an entire year of service, I definitely recommend signing up. You can even use it on your computer at school to unblock websites your school might restrict access to.
So stop wondering if Netflix in Korea works! Get a VPN and start watching Netflix in Korea tonight!

1940 ford deluxe -rims and tires
the car is completely stock but i am looking for some really nice rims and tires...soemthing that will fill up the wheel wells nicely and something that will also lower it a little bit...
any suggestions ?
On my basically stock suspension 1940 Ford standard businessman coupe ... I just used a set of 55/56 F-100 rims on the front. They come in a 15 inch rim size and I had 165/15/80R Kumos on the front. On the rear I had a widened rim with the F-100 center and used a 225/75/15R tire.
I also had a dropped axle and a reversed eye spring in the front and a rear spring de-arched.
bolt pattern
any clue what size the bolt pattern is ?
thanks for your help...nice coupe!!
That IS a nice coupe!
1940 ford coupe stock rims and tires ??
does anyone have a stock coupe with aftermarket rims and tires ? i am trying to finish my dads coupe for him and i cannot figure out what to do . the axles stick out on it so the moon hubcaps work but what else will work onthere...
i might be forced to runs stock rims and new tires on it with the moon hub caps and trim rings ...
thanks guys
A lot of rodders just use a set of mid 50's F-100 rims. I did :D
The original wheel pattern on a 1940 Ford is 5 on 5.5 and that is the same as Ford pickups for many years ( not current ones ). It is a big pattern and not the most popular pattern for the aftermarket mag wheel manufacturers.
Wheel adapters are available, but only make the track width wider and uses up valuable room when trying to use aftermarket rims.
what size tires are you running ?
thanks for the help !!
How wide are 40 ford rims and how bog of a tire will go no them?
40 Ford rims
How wide are 40 Ford rims and how big of a tire woll go on them??
Your two threads for the same issue have been merged here.

In Plain Sight: Poverty in America is a special editorial initiative of NBC News focused on covering poverty and inequality in the United States.
Charging state sales tax on groceries harms the poor, local economies and the state, according to a new report on Kansas' highest-in-the-nation levy.
The income gap is widening in many major U.S. cities as poor households are left behind by the recovery from the Great Recession, a new study finds.
Increasing the minimum wage is an inefficient way to reduce poverty, a controversial new Federal Reserve research paper argues.
The report, released Tuesday from the child advocacy group the Annie E. Casey Foundation, showed only some signs of slight improvement.
A movement for a $15 minimum wage that even some supporters considered a pipe dream is gaining momentum.
A federal judge in Alabama issued a temporary restraining order Thursday against Lear Corp. after the Labor Department accused the company of illegally harassing its workers.
A worker who was fired and slapped with a restraining order after leading a protest march is in court to demand she be allowed to continue her fight.

Outside many U.S. cities, long commutes can mean even lower income for poor Americans.

www.computerworld.com –
SINGAPORE -- The unified Unix variant code-named Project Monterey being jointly developed by IBM, The Santa Cruz Operation Inc. and Sequent Computer Systems Inc. will be launched in the third quarter of next year, SCO President for Asia-Pacific James Clark said here today.
The Monterey-64 operating system will run on 32-bit and forthcoming 64-bit Intel Corp. Merced processors and IBM's PowerPC RISC processors, and will show the results of technology sharing between SCO and IBM and their respective UnixWare 7 and AIX Unix operating systems, Clark said at a technology seminar.
"We've taken the best bits of AIX with the best bits of UnixWare 7 and added some new features," he said. "Monterey-64 will also include a lot of AIX middleware."
Greater scalability and capacity will mark future developments to 2001, according to Clark. These developments will include clusters of 32 nodes, up from today's four to six nodes; the ability to handle 32-way SMP (symmetrical multiprocessing) systems, compared with today's 16-way systems; and an increase in maximum individual file sizes from 1T byte to 8T bytes.
The Monterey-64 project was endorsed in April by Compaq Computer Corp. when the company said it would use the operating system on its future 64-bit ProLiant servers.
The advanced operating system will enable SCO to migrate its business toward higher-end enterprise markets, Clark said.
"The critical factors for volume markets are standard hardware, a standard operating system and volume applications," he said.

Man arrested, accused of threatening to kill witness in theft case
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. - A man arrested after being accused of stealing thousands of dollars from customers and others at a car dealership is now accused of threatening to kill a key witness in the case.
Alex Rosario went in front of a judge Thursday after landing back in jail.
He was originally arrested for crimes stemming from the operation of two car dealerships, V12 Auto Sales and People's Choice.
Orange County sheriff's investigators said Rosario stole more than $250,000 from customers, other car dealers and financing companies by selling cars when he didn't actually own the titles.
"For the last two months I've been fearful of my life," said Angel Camacho.
Camacho said he got caught up in the situation after he bought a car lot from Rosario. He's a witness in Rosario's two upcoming trials.
Camacho said that in May he was doing business at Latin American Pawn on Orange Blossom Trail when Rosario blocked him in with his car.
He said Rosario called him a snitch then threatened to kill him to try to keep him from testifying in court.
Deputies said the encounter was captured on surveillance video and that is why Rosario is back in jail.
"He threatened me, that I'm this and I'm that," said Camacho. "And I said, 'I'm putting you in jail for crimes you committed against me.'"
Rosario is being held without bond in the Orange County Jail. His trial in the first theft case is set for next month.

Tower defense has been done, but Crescent Moon Games might have a trick up its sleeve with the new title Siegecraft Defender. This is a 3D tower defense game based on the Unity engine with a conventional, but solid single-player campaign and an innovative multiplayer aspect.
The regular campaign consists of over 30 levels, which the developer claims amounts to about 10 hours of gameplay. The basic mechanics on display are on the safe side.Read More

Lord Phillips also warned there is a tendency on the part of the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) to try to gain the Supreme Court "as an outlying part of its empire".
The way in which the court is dependent each year on what it can persuade the ministry to give it "by way of contribution" was "not a satisfactory situation", he said.
The top judge also raised concerns over whether senior court staff owed their loyalty to him or to ministers. It is "critical" for the court's independence that its chief executive, Jenny Rowe, "owes her primary loyalty to me and not to the minister", he said, adding that Ms Rowe backed his view. But he warned of an impression that there are those within the ministry "who do not appreciate this".
The Supreme Court, which replaced the Law Lords, was set up in 2009 to emphasise the separation of powers between Parliament and judges.
But, in a speech at the launch of a research project on the politics of judicial independence at the University College London (UCL) constitution unit on Tuesday night, Lord Phillips said that independence was threatened by the court's funding arrangements.
"My conclusion is that our present funding arrangements do not satisfactorily guarantee our institutional independence," he said. "We are, in reality, dependent each year upon what we can persuade the Ministry of Justice of England and Wales to give us by way of 'contribution'.
"This is not a satisfactory situation for the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom. It is already leading to a tendency on the part of the Ministry of Justice to try to gain the Supreme Court as an outlying part of its empire."
Justice Secretary Ken Clarke denied any threat to the court's independence and insisted he could not give it a blank cheque at a time when he was slashing budgets in other services such as prisons.
"Inevitably he is going to be subject to the same public expenditure negotiations as everybody else. The independence of the court is absolutely secure but it doesn't extend to telling me how much public money they are going to spend without question. And his chief executive is a civil servant. That does not compromise his judicial independence at all, I am afraid, in my opinion," he told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme.

Re: The Dark Knight Mafia Discussion Thread
Night 0
The day in Gotham City begins as Superman and Lois are talking and Superman says he is nervous about going out in front of the city to give a speech. Lois reminds him that he is going out there not as Clark but as Superman so he shouldn't be nervous at all. Superman goes out there and give a press conference on being a good citizen and how Lex Luther (the new mayor) did great things for Metropolis and will now do great things for Gotham.
The long day in the DC Universe is coming to a close. The rain starts to pour as the light begins to fade into darkness. The dim street lights begin to flicker as the headlights of cars become the main source of light in the dark Gotham City. We see the cops patrol chase a woman dressed as a cat down the street as she has just robbed a local jewellers. Before the police can stop her she leaps into the air and dashes over the rooftops making it impossible for the police. So its just your usual night here in Gotham City…….
Back in Metropolis Oliver Queen (the Green Arrow), is in his room sulking at the fact that he and Lois are now, no longer together. He looks out his window as he sees the signs of "Luther Incorp." Being pulled down from across the street as Luther had moved out of the city and into Gotham a few weeks ago, after he became the new mayor, when replaced Harvey Dent.
Back in Gotham and at an undisclosed warehouse, there is a group of street criminals and The Joker!
The Joker: Right Boys, Tonight is the night we takeout SuperMan, he was here earlier today and it is time we got for the top dog!
The Joker and his gang leave there hideout and drive straight into the heart of Gotham, causing as much chaos as possible.
Lois and Clark are at a late night Circus Event in which the one remaining Grayson is doing his death defying performance. But Clark can hear the noises from downtown Gotham and alerts Lois that there is trouble, she is adamant he go with her, he reluctantly agrees to tell her where the trouble will be and for her to call the police and they leave the show earlier as Superman is off…
Lois is on Clarks trail as Clark tells her to stay safe as he deals with things. The Joker's pals are all taken down with ease by Superman, The Joker goes for a run and Superman catches up with him in a dark alley. Superman goes to restrain The Joker but suddenly he falls to the floor. The Joker has "Kryptonite!". Superman tries to fight it but The Riddler turns up also holding a big piece of Kryptonite. Supermans powers deteriorate, as now The Scarecrow and Posion Ivy turn up holding more pieces. Superman is fading and fading but……
At Wayne Manor Barbara Wilson, (alfred's nephew is studying with Bruce) When the Alfred comes in and alerts Bruce that he is needed "at work", he quickly makes his apologises to Barbara and sneaks off to Alfred. Bruce asks whats happening and is told by Alfred that Commisioner Gordon raised the Batsignal. Bruce changes into the Bat Suit and meets Gordon at the signal.
Superman is fading as The 4 supervillians look on as Superman is dying in front of there eyes when….
BATMAN! From the skies dives down and attacks the group of super-villains. Two-Face arrives and he also has a piece of Kryptonite, he attaches it to the other four pieces as the villains keep Batman distracted. The pieces join together and the light from them is astounding as this huge piece of kryptonite glows in the dark alley and finally explodes in the hands of Two-Face.
The explosion knocks everyone down, Superman is down also but he isn't moving. Lois quickly runs over to his aid and realises he isn't breathing, she tries and tries to wake him but he isn't moving. The police sirens can finally be heard, The gang abscond quickly but The Joker sees Batman getting to his feet and The Joker throws his knife at Batman but Batman ducks and the knife flies through the air and into the heart of Lois!
The Joker gets away as Batman is forced to turn his attention to Lois and Superman. The Police are arriving and Batman quickly escapes before he is framed for the murders.
By day the news of "Batman killing Superman and Lois" has spread across the world of the global tragedy, one man in particular who vows to Batman for killing is The Green Arrow. With the city against Batman and the gang of 5 powerful super-villains coming together, will the city be able to find these people and bring back peace to Gotham, or will The Powers of Evil rule the city.
SuperMan is dead, he was

This time, there was no Clock-gate.
Though the scoreboard clock froze at the end of Thursday night's Boston Bruins-Washington Capitals game, the league knew all about it and was ready to cancel any inappropriate goal.
It was a different situation from what happened in Los Angeles in February when the clock appeared to freeze for a second and the Kings scored with 0.3 seconds left to beat the Columbus Blue Jackets. Kings general manager Dean Lombardi gave an explanation at the time involving sophisticated instrumentation and electrical charges called coulombs.
In Thursday night's game, the visiting Bruins would have been the one who could have taken advantage and no goal was scored as Washington's Braden Holtby made a last-second save.
This delay was the result of a miscommunication and the NHL's Mike Murphy gave this explanation and reassurance:
"With 9.5 seconds remaining in the third period, there was a stoppage and resulting face-off in the Washington zone. During the stoppage, the game clock operator and Series Manager determined that 0.9 seconds should have been added to the time remaining in the third period and attempted to contact the on-ice officials to delay the puck drop to accommodate making the necessary clock adjustment to 10.4 seconds remaining.
"The off-ice officials were not able to attract the attention of the referees or linesmen despite sounding the horn, which was not audible due to crowd noise, and the puck was dropped.
"The NHL Situation Room in Toronto immediately was aware that the clock had not started for 5.3 seconds after the face-off and, therefore, would have disallowed a goal scored with 5.3 seconds or less showing on the clock."

Inspired by Team GB's medal success? Keep your Olympic spirits going on a fantastic break with sports on offer...
1. Tennis in Morocco from £595pp
Fans swept up by Andy Murray's tennis gold should head to Morocco to the Rebali Riad in the village of Sidi Kaouki. The boutique hotel, a 20-minute drive south of Essouira on the Atlantic coast, is serving up tennis breaks under the guidance of a professional coach. The hotel's hammam is perfect for a post-tennis massage to ease aching muscles. You can also go horse-riding, quad-biking and kite-surfing.
THE DEAL: The week-long tennis holiday costs from £595pp (based on two sharing) which includes flights, private transfers, breakfast and two hours' coaching for five days with Fleewinter.
2. Sailing in Turkey from £695pp
Inspired by Ben Ainslie's victory on the water? Then set your sailing sights on a break at Mark Warner's Sea Garden resort in Turkey. Located right on the coast near Bodrum, the resort's inviting turquoise waters in the sheltered bay are perfect for nautical novices, and instructors are on hand to show you the ropes. If sailing doesn't float your boat, test the water snorkelling, diving or water-skiing. Kids have their own pool with plenty of activities supervised by British childcare staff.
THE DEAL: Seven nights all-inclusive at the Sea Garden will cost from £695pp (saving up to £288pp) including flights departing Heathrow on September 1, transfers, watersports and childcare.
3. Canoeing in Cyprus from £675pp
You can paddle your own canoe in Cyprus at the Akteon Tourist Village, just one of the many sporty activities to try at this four-star resort near Paphos, including basketball, tennis and beach volleyball. A short 200m walk brings you to a sandy beach with more opportunities to take to the water, from water and jet-skiing to diving and windsurfing. The ancient town of Paphos and charming harbour is easily reached by public transport and there are historic treasures to explore such as the Tomb of Kings and the stunning Paphos Mosaics. Or you can simply apply yourself to some serious sunbathing as all the rooms come with terraces or balconies.
THE DEAL: A week self-catering at the Akteon Tourist Village costs from £675pp based on two sharing a studio apartment with flights departing from Gatwick on August 22 through Holiday Jewels.
4. Olympic breaks in Greece from £755pp
Head to the home of the ancient Olympic Games, the Greek Peloponnese, and soak up some of the sun's rays which lit the Olympic Flame at the Temple of Hera in Olympia for the start of the Torch relay. Panorama Cottages, set above Chrani's main beach, are surrounded by lawns and gardens. And you're overlooking the Gulf of Messinia to the mountains of Mani. For diehard enthusiasts it's a two-hour drive north to Olympia while Nemea, where there's still an ancient running track and stadium, is a two-hour journey east.
THE DEAL: A fortnight self-catering at the Panorama Cottages with Sunvil costs from £755pp (saving £144pp) including flights from Gatwick on August 26 and car hire.
5. Cycling in Miami from £899pp
Miami's tropical climate makes it easy-peasy to get on your bike for a cycling tour round the city's sights, taking in the amazing Art Deco district and the attractions of South Beach (for bike rental go to www.viator.com). Check into uber-stylish Shore Club Miami, one of the hippest in town, in the heart of South Beach. With bars featuring guest DJs, classy restaurants, glamorous pool parties and a roof-top spa, there's plenty of scope for celebrity-spotting.
THE DEAL: Four nights room-only at the Shore Club Miami from £899pp (saving £50pp) including flights with BA departing Heathrow between August 19 and October 21 through DialAFlight.
6. Games in Europe from £66pp
The Olympics may be over but Al Fresco Holidays' International Summer Games are in full swing at seven of its parks in Spain, France and Italy. Families can show off their skills competing in activities from baseball and mini-golf to old favourites like the wheelbarrow and three-legged races.
THE DEAL: Seven nights self-catering from August 30 at Chateau des Ormes in Northern Brittany costs £398 (saving £100) for a family of up to six in a two-bedroom Rossini mobile home. The French park, boasting the largest indoor and outdoor waterpark in Brittany, has recently added an enormous outdoor wave pool.
7. Biking in Tenerife from £509pp
It's no surprise to learn Tenerife was the training ground where Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky put in hours of pedalling in the run-up to the Olympics. The Canary isle is renowned for its great choice of biking routes, both on- and off-road, and for keen cyclists there's no better way than taking to your bike to explore the island.
THE DEAL: The three-star Aparthotel Tamaimo Tropical in Puerto Santiago offers other Olympian sports such as waterpolo and archery. A seven-night all-inclusive stay costs from £509pp including flights from Gatwick on September 4 with Airtours.
8. Swimming in France from £140pp
Make a splash at Canvas Holidays' own Aqua Olympics and practise your swimstrokes à la Rebecca Adlington in the pool at Camping la Croix du Vieux Pont, near Paris. Or show off your gymnastic skills on the trampoline in an Aeroball tournament. And before making tracks to the lakeside site, take the chance to visit famous landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe.
THE DEAL: Arrive on August 23 and seven nights at Camping la Croix du Vieux Pont will cost from £840 per family (based on two adults and up to four children) staying in a two-bedroom Choice mobile home and including return ferry crossings from Dover to Calais.
9. Gold rush in Cornwall from £162pp
The West Country is bracing itself for a gold rush of its own now that the Olympics are over. So you'll need to be quick out of the starting blocks if you want to snap up charming cottages like Morva in the heart of traditional Cornish fishing village East Looe. Once there you can catch your breath with relaxing walks along the long, sandy beach. And you won't have to run a marathon to reach shops, restaurants and pubs – there's a wide choice in the famous harbour.
THE DEAL: A week's rental from August 25 in the two-bedroom cottage (sleeps up to four) costs £650 through Looe & Polperro Holidays.
10. Splashing in Spain from £695pp
From pools and slides to chutes and lazy rivers, the kids will never be out of the water when you take the family on an Aquamania holiday, based at selected Thomas Cook properties. At Aqualandia waterpark in Benidorm you can get your adrenaline fix on the Splash slide and Black Hole or chill out on the Amazonas River.
THE DEAL: An all-inclusive seven-night stay at the four-star Don Jorge Apartments starts at £2,180 for a family of four (£695pp) including flights from Glasgow on August 18 and with free unlimited access to the Aqualandia waterpark.

351w won't stay running help!
ok let me just start by saying this board seems to be very good. i have tried another forum and no-one there was able to help with my problem.
ok i have recently replaced the engine in my 1991 bronco with a 351w engine e40d transmission. it starts fine, no problem there but after it runs for a few seconds it lopes a couple of times and then dies. it was doing this before i pulled the motor. one thing that might help is that when i rebuilt the motor i noticed that one cylinder had busted rings and that a lot of oil was coming out of the top of the motor. also it had a flat lobe on the cam. i replaced and properly rebuilt the engine and now it sounds really mean with an edelbrock performer cam in it. i have replaced the MAP, TPS, IAC, ECT, ACT, and the engine control module but it is still doing exactly the same thing. i have also replaced the fuel pump, filter, regulator, and relay, and i am completely stumped. i have tried disconnecting every sensor(one at a time) to see if the default values would keep it going but to no avail.
it starts fine every time but it won't stay running. please help

Ive been going to the Full Bull Smokehouse Saloon since they opened and have always tried supporting local business until now. There have been quite a few things or shall i say changes that have kept me from returning. The 1st thing is that several weeks ago I was in an ordered and Italian beef which Ive always been a fan of until I noticed half way threw my sandwich the bread was moldy. The day waitress was very rude and never offered to fix the problem just said sorry it wont happen again. I then went to pay my bill which i also thought should have discounted because of the moldy bread and she charged me full price and to top it off she short changed me and then argued with me over it. What ever happened to the saying the customers always right. she acted like I was a bother rather than a paying customer. The next thing is that she is always and i mean always sitting at a bar stool doing who knows what drinking. half the time i used to go in and she would be outside smoking and never bother to come in and help me. I only have a 30 min lunch break so when she spends 15 of those min smoking it was always cutting me short on lunch. the owner who i know as dan was always sitting at the bar on his computer right next to Jill looking at what looked like as fb. I didnt realize fb had anything to do with his company . another big problem for me is the other owners wife the 1 that works when they have bands which i used to enjoy going to see. shes always walking around bare foot while working behind the bar, shes also very rude to non biker customers . Ive ordered drinks from the other bartender thats working and ill leave my tip lay there for her and the next thing i see is the owners wife swiping it up off the bar and into her back pocket. i wouldnt think thats right for any owner to be working for tips. what do you think
#2 Aug 25, 2012
then i suggest if u dont like the place that u stay the hell away from it . the full bull is 1 of my favorite places 2 hangout at .
#3 Aug 27, 2012

#5 Aug 28, 2012
I know that I have gone in there for lunch as a group of 10 one time and as a couple another time. Like someone else said, only have 30 minutes for lunch and each time it took about 45 minutes to get the meals, and wrong both times and it was like I did something wrong. I enjoy their food but seriously straighten it up!

Have you ever tried to sell a route but weren't sure how to figure its value? Have you ever looked at purchasing a route but were unsure of how much you should pay? Determining the fair value of a vending route can be tough! I've heard someone say you should never pay more for a route than what the machines were worth, but that doesn't sound right. We all know some locations are better than others, and therefore more valuable. This article will provide a guideline for determining the fair value of a vending route which can serve as a starting point for negotiation.
The rest of this post explains how the route evaluator works. If you just want to download and use the calculator, click here.
The formula we'll use for estimating the value of a vending route has three basic components, the value of the machines themselves, the estimated cost to service the machines, and the estimated monthly income after the cost of the product. Let's take a look at each in turn.
The Value of the Machines
I saw an ad recently for a few vending machines for sale. The seller claimed to pay $6,000 for each machine and is offering them at a great deal for only $2,000 each. At the same time, there were other sellers selling the exact same machine for about $400. Maybe this is common sense, but please don't think that what the seller paid for a machine or a location has any bearing on what it's actually worth. Do your own research and keep an eye on advertizements to get an idea of what machines are selling for.
The Cost to Service the Machines
If there are multiple machines in different locations all over town, it's going to cost you more in time and gas to make a run than if there are multiple machines all on one street. Even if you're doing the run yourself, use an hourly rate for the time it takes to service all the machines. If you were sick, or if you were to hire someone in the future, you would have to pay them. Your time is valuable, and you shouldn't work for free. Also, estimate the amount of gas you'll use. You could try to take the current price of gas and the mpg of your vehicle to come up with a number, but it's probably easiest to take the standard mileage deduction. It's close enough.
The Estimated Monthly Income
Finally, we'll need to know how much the machines are bringing in. If you're buying a route, the seller should be able to give you an estimate of monthly sales. This is good enough to use for these calculations and to get an idea of what you're willing to pay, but I highly encourage you to ask for bank statements. After all, you're not buying a box of baseball cards at a garage sale here, you're buying a business. The seller should be able to back up his claims. From the current sales, you can estimate the cost of the product. This may vary by location, but an estimate of 50% should be reasonable.
Calculating the Present Value of the Vending Route
Now that we have the required info, we'll use what's called a present value calculation. Explaining this calculation in detail is beyond the scope of this post. Fortunately, Microsoft Excel can do the work for us! At this point, it may be helpful to open Excel and follow along. Pick a cell and type in "=PV(".
The Present Value function takes four parameters that we're interested in: rate, nper, pmt, and fv. The Rate is complicated and can differ from person to person, but you can think of it as a way of putting a value on what else you would do with the money if you weren't buying a vending route. For our purposes, 10% per year should be fine. All of our other numbers are in terms of months, however, so use 10% (.1) and divide by 12 which is .0083.
nper stands for Number of Periods. This is how long you expect to operate the route. If you're selling the route and you've been running it for 10 years or if you have a contract which guarantees the machines can stay for another 5 years, you can explain to the buyer that the route is very stable and therefore worth more. You might be justified in using 60 months. If you're buying a route, and the seller placed the machines three months ago in a strip mall with high turnover, you might not be able to count on keeping the location for more than a year. I usually start with 24 months and adjust from there.
pmt stands for Payment. This is the amount of net profit you estimate will be coming in from all machines per month. Remember to subtract you time, mileage, and cost of product from the monthly sales to estimate the monthly payment.
Finally, fv stands for future value. This is where the value of the machines come in to play. If everything goes exactly as planned and at the end of two years you have to leave the location, you still own the machines. You could move them to a new location or sell them. If you assume you can keep the machines in good condition, it's probably a safe bet you can sell them for about what they're worth today.
An Example
Whew! That was a lot of information! Still with me? Let's consider a brief example. Let's say you see an ad for a route for sale in your area on the internet. The seller is asking $5,000 for three machines located in an office building. After talking with him on the phone, he says the machines do a total of $600 per month in sales (about $200 each machine). He says he services the machines once a week and it takes him an hour. He also tells you what the machines are. You're familiar with these machines, and you estimate they're worth $400 each ($1200 total). You also know the office building is 10 miles away, so for this example, we'll estimate 20 miles of driving per week, 4 weeks per month, and 44 cents per mile which comes to about $35. You also figure you can do the run in one hour, but that it will take another half an hour of paperwork and running to get product. You think an hourly rate of $15 is reasonable, so 1.5 hours per week * 4 weeks per month * $15 per hour = $90 per month. Let's also assume product cost is 50% of sales. this means the $600 in sales is reduced to $175 (($600*50%) – $90 – $35). Expenses take their toll pretty quickly! Finally, we'll assume that you can count on the machines staying where they are for another 2 years (24 months). We have all our information, let's plug it in to Excel. Type in "=PV(.0083, 24, 175, 1200)". The result I get is $4,778. Remember, even though we get an exact number, we did a lot of estimating. In this case, if I saw proof the machines were indeed making $600 per month in sales, I would be comfortable paying his asking price of $5,000. On the other hand, if everything else were the same except the seller said he paid $6,000 each for the machine and location and he wants to sell for $9,000 in order to pay off the loan, I would determine this deal is not worth pursuing.
I've done the work for you in Microsoft Excel. You can download the RouteEvaluator spreadsheet here. I encourage you to play with the numbers to see what happens. For example, if you were sure the route would remain for three years, you might be willing to pay more than $6,000. Or if instead you increased sales by $50 per month (maybe by adjusting prices) you might be willing to pay $7,000. Have fun!

Hey all,
I am trying to better my first plugin here on CodeCanyon. The plugin is
It is revenue sharing plugin for WordPress inspired by Hubpages, Squidoo and a need from my site authors. At the moment it shares Google Adsense Revenue by doing AD swapping based on a percentage/ratio.
At the moment, I have added the option of adding Custom HTML Code, Banner and Link URL as well as kept the Google Adsense option.
I like the idea of this plugin and I am looking for ideas to really make it more appealing and add more functionality to it. What do you suggest?
Also, I receive comments on my portfolio but I don't get any notifications via email, how do I set that up. My support only seems slow because I don't know when a comment has been submitted.
