Compared to microscopic dirt particles, your engine is a Goliath, roaring with heat and energy as it converts fuel into raw horsepower. But despite all this power, your engine is extremely vulnerable to the threat of microscopic engine dirt. In fact, if unchecked, this tiny menace will dramatically erode your engine's performance and can eventually cripple it beyond repair.
AMSOIL Ea Oil and Air Filters are the key to preventing costly repairs caused by engine dirt. Filtration is simply a method of removing contaminants by trapping and holding them outside the system. In order for filtration to be truly effective, however, it must be able to capture contaminants of all types and sizes.
AMSOIL Introduces Revolutionary Nanofiber Filter Media Technology!
AMSOIL Ea Oil Filters have significantly lower restriction than conventional cellulose media filters. Their small synthetic nanofibers trap smaller particles and hold more contaminants, resulting in lower restriction. During cold temperature warm-up periods, an EaO lube filter allows the oil to easily flow through the filter compared to a typical cellulose filter. Lower restriction decreases engine wear.
Fast Fact: A nanofiber is less than one micron in diameter.
A human hair is 80 microns.
Ea Oil Filters
Made with premium-grade full synthetic media. Ea Oil Filters feature advanced full synthetic nanofiber technology, making them the highest efficiency filters that are available for the auto/light truck market. AMSOIL EaO Filters are guaranteed for 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, when used in conjunction with AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil in gasoline and diesel vehicles in normal service, 15,000 miles in severe service.
Product Code: EaO
Ea Heavy-Duty Extended-Life Oil Filters
AMSOIL Ea Heavy-Duty Extended-Life Oil Filters (EaHD) provide excellent filtering efficiency and high levels of contaminant capacity for heavy-duty on- and off-road gasoline and diesel applications. They provide extended service intervals that coincide with the maximum drain interval recommendations of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils (not to exceed one year), increasing convenience and reducing maintenance costs. Ea Heavy-Duty filters offer AMSOIL quality at competitive prices.
Product Code: EAHD
EaBP Oil Filters
The Ea By-Pass Oil Filter (EaBP) provides the best possible filtration protection against wear and oil degradation. Working in conjunction with the engine's full-flow oil filter, the AMSOIL Ea By-Pass Filter operates by filtering oil on a "partial-flow" basis. It draws approximately 10 percent of the oil pump's capacity at any one time and traps the extremely small, wear-causing contaminants that full-flow filters can't remove. The AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filter typically filters all the oil in the system several times an hour, so the engine continuously receives analytically clean oil.
Product Code: EaBP90,

Absolute Efficiency
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are the most efficient filters available to the car/light truck market. Ea Air Filters' synthetic nanofiber media removes 5 times more dust than traditional cellulose filter media alone and 50 times more dust than wet gauze filter media. AMSOIL Ea Air Filters have a service life of 100,000 miles or four years, whichever comes first.
Better Air Flow
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters allow more airflow than filters that use cellulose media alone. Cellulose fibers are larger than nanofibers, and have larger spaces between the fibers, causing contaminants to load in the depth of the media and plug the airflow path, which results in higher restriction and less capacity. The synthetic nanofibers in EaA Filter media have submicron diameters and small interfiber spaces, which result in more contaminants being captured on the surface of the media and lower restriction.
Ea Air Filters
The Absolute Best Air Filtration Available for Cars and Light Trucks. Guaranteed for 4 Years or 100,000 miles. The revolutionary nanofiber technology used in AMSOIL Ea Filters captures more dirt, holds more dirt and allows better air flow than conventional air filters.

PromoMEDIA - advertising at the Right Time, Right Place and Right Price
We offer expert advertising services for companies within the health and fitness sector, including gyms and sports clubs, to help promote their various services to the public.
Our team can carry out a range of advertising strategies including billboards, radio and TV to promote your brand and services in the fitness and well-being sector.
The fitness industry is one of the fastest-growing and most popular industries in the world.
Interest in fitness, sports and general well-being is bigger than ever before and appeals to many; you only need to look around at a gym floor and you will see that the users are far from the old stereotypical image of muscly, young men posing in mirrors (although they still exist), but there are now members of all ages, sizes, backgrounds and interests.
In today's highly competitive sports and fitness industry it is important to stand out for the crowd, appeal to a wide cross-section of people and get noticed.
At PromoMEDIA we work with a variety of sporting and fitness companies providing marketing and advertising for a wide range of clients, including large gym chains, independent sports and leisure clubs, self-employed yoga teachers, amateur sports groups and lifestyle coaches.
Each of these different propositions appealing to a different cross-section of society, meaning that each campaign has to be tailored and bespoke. As a leading sports marketing agency, we can help you with whatever you are looking for.
If you work in the fitness industry and are looking to advertise your product or service, please contact one of our friendly team and tell us about your aims and ambitions, rather like putting together a fitness plan, we will put together a bespoke action plan to help you achieve the results you want!
This is a question which has no simple answer. In a varied market, as pointed out above, there is certainly no one set way to go about advertising in the fitness industry, for example, what works to promote a bespoke personal fitness trainer is very different to a national gym chain or a holistic retreat. Also at different times of the year, the same company may want to target different types of people – new joiners in January, people looking to get fit for summer, marketing to raise brand profile etc.
Naturally, each sector also has different target markets too – young football players are different to older yoga lovers or tennis players. Here at PromoMedia, we are a sporty bunch and love working in this sector so we can help you choose the best options to appeal to your target market. As we also work with different budgets we can create a campaign which works for you, ultimately getting you more sales, participants or members.
Billboards work great in the fitness industry as it allows you to show the positive benefits of fitness in a visual way. You can target specific locations either local to your gym or sports centre, or you can target to specific locations where your potential customers may be. You can see more details on the billboard ads we offer here - https://www.promo-media.co.uk/advert-services/billboard-specialist/ and find out more on what is available.
Large billboards (48 sheets) are generally hired out for a minimum of 2 weeks and popular sites include roadsides, roundabouts and shopping centres. Other popular billboard options include poster sites at key locations, including railway stations, bus-stops and underground escalator panels.
At PromoMedia we can secure all these various sites for you. Contact us today telling us the area you are interested in and we will look at availability. As a general rule, the best spots get booked in advance so please try to plan ahead as much as possible.
For national gym or larger regional companies, TV advertising works brilliantly. With mass reach and again as a highly visible medium you can really show off your fitness, sports or well-being brand. TV is often the "jewel in the crown" for any marketing campaign, it is typically the most expensive form of advertising but this is because it yields the best results.
You can find more information on television advertising here - https://www.promo-media.co.uk/type-of-ads/tv-adverts/ to see what we can do for you. ITV is the most popular channel for advertising on but we find that Sky Adsmart advertising for the sports and fitness industry works very well as you can target specific locations and personal demographics. This means your ads have less wastage and can achieve better results.
Similar to TV radio has massive reach with people listening at home, in the car or at work. There are lots of different stations to choose from, each having different audiences. Check out this page for more details on radio marketing for your brand - https://www.promo-media.co.uk/type-of-ads/radio-adverts/. Stations for you to consider include Smooth, Heart, Capital, Classic and other local smaller independent options. When you tell us your target market we can help decide which are the best options or you may already know yourself. We can also help with production and voice-over.
If you are looking to promote your company in the highly competitive Sports and Fitness industry get in contact with us today. One of our friendly team will get back to you and talk you through the options to take your business to the next level and stay ahead of your competition.

"Jersey Shore" star Snooki may be notorious for throwing herself at every man who came her way on the hit MTV show – but when it comes to rumors of a sex tape featuring the starlet, she took to her Twitter page to say that's anything but a reality.
"Like i said before about my supposed 'sex tape'…There are no nude pictures nor will there ever be. the tabloids just love snook gossip," she wrote on her Twitter page on Tuesday.
Earlier in the day, Radar Online reported that Snooki – whose real name is Nicole Polizzi – was featured in nude photos and video, which were being shopped around to various media outlets.
"[I don't know] where radar online comes up with their stories..weirdos," she Tweeted.
Snooki isn't the first "Jersey Shore" star to be the subject of reported naked photos.
Radar previously reported that nude pics of her cast mate JWOWW — aka Jenni Farley – were being circulated online for sale.
While the images of the stars have yet to surface, fans will be seeing much more of Snooki, JWOWW and the rest of the cast very soon, as MTV previously announced "Jersey Shore" had been picked up for a second season.

Timeline for production
Timeline for production
Expect that to happen in Q4 of 2014, and if there is a delay, then surely in Q1 of 2015.
Tesla model x should be presented as definitive model at NAIAS 2014. Then would start shipping in Q4 2014.
Greetings from Spain.
In any case, in Geneva 2014 they must have a production model of the Tesla Model X ready. And they probably will.
well if they can keep raising their market cap at such a rapid rate, i don't see why they couldn't try and bump production
+1 We're all hoping so!
Model X rear doors, will one be able to open one door only and
not both at the same time, as shown in all the descriptions?
You mean like this...
Yes, of course you can. Why would they make you open both doors at once? ;-)
First time trying to post a picture. Obviously didn't work. Try this...
I'm not sure if it's new or not, but something changed today with my reservation.
I went to my profile page and my Model X reservation was moved above my current Model S. Typically, the S has been sitting on top.
I haven't ever noticed it (so not sure if it's new or not), but there was a red Upgrade button on my reservation. When I clicked through for the Signature Upgrade process, the verbiage said that Model X Signature would begin deliveries in early 2014.
Is this old language that hasn't been corrected?
If so, what caused the Model X reservation to see a promotion?
Acceleration from the big capital infusion?
@ rallykeeper
You should go to a Tesla Store and explain this to them. Or you should call somebody from Tesla Motors. They might/should give you some clarification on this matter.
By the way, will you keep us informed as well? Thanks

Mplus Discussion
Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
posted on Sunday, September 05, 2010 - 2:24 pm
I am trying to run a mixture regression model very similar to Example 7.1 in the User's Guide.
My model uses 3 latent class indicators, 5 covariates on which c is regressed, and 2 covariates on which my continuous dependent variable is regressed.
I am wondering if there is a way to specify which variables are the latent class indicators. I do not want my covariates or distal outcome to be considered indicators of the latent class solution.
Thanks so much.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Monday, September 06, 2010 - 8:47 am
This question comes up with some frequency. The short answer is no, but that doesn't tell the whole story.
We can do an analysis based on only the 3 indicators, then classify subjects based on this LCA, and then regress most likely class membership on the covariates and regress the distal on most likely class. But we know that this gives biased results unless you have very good classification, say entropy > 0.8.
Let's focus on the distal outcome - your continuous dependent variable. Statistically, a distal outcome acts just like another latent class indicator - conditional on latent class the indicators are independent. Statistically, the distal contributes information about the latent class variable. So why would you not want to use the distal together with the 3 indicators? The argument might be that you want to use the 3 indicators as a prediction instrument and see how well classes determined from the 3 predict the distal. But then, why not proceed as follows?
Do the analysis with the 3 indicators and the distal to get parameter estimates for how the distal relates to the latent classes. In a subsequent analysis, say using a new sample, you use the estimates from this model as fixed parameters and use information from only the 3 indicators, giving missing values for the distal. That gives you a different most likely class membership and that can be used to predict the distal using the estimates for the link between the distal and the latent class variable. That's your prediction instrument. You may find that the use of the distal sharpens your classification to be more tuned to predicting the distal. That's what happened when I analyzed the LSAY math data, predicting high school dropout.

By 2018, the number of organizations using disaster recovery as a service will exceed the number of organizations using traditional recovery services.
The company's new multi-cloud storage service provides data management and services to applications running on the AWS and Azure clouds.
The use of machine learning in storage systems may give SSD endurance a massive boost.

Spring 2020 classes have resumed online.Please visit

learn how to prepare for online classes.
Cedar Valley student and future hopeful attorney
"I've always been interested in how things work in the criminal justice system and I found my first classes in Sarita Stewart's Criminal Justice classes incredibly interesting. The laws and definitions just make sense to me. I want to keep my GPA as high as humanly possible, take the LSAT and get into a good law school. I'd like to practice criminal law. I like a challenge and I've always been good at negotiation.
"I was able to take advantage of having my full tuition paid for because my dad is 100% disabled as a Vietnam war veteran. My experience at Cedar Valley has been fantastic. I like the teacher-to-student ratio, because you get to know the teachers and they work with you; that's a huge benefit. I'm glad I started out at community college. Besides, you save a ton of money."
Chase Gravis is earning an associate degree in Criminal Justice at Cedar Valley and hopes to continue his education to earn a bachelor's degree in criminal justice at UNT. He is a member of Phi Theta Kappa, the academic honor society for students in two-year colleges.

South Sudan is the most rapidly deteriorating humanitarian crisis in the world today, according to a senior United Nations relief operations official who made an urgent appeal for desperately-needed funding for Ethiopia, which hosts 180,000 mostly women and children South Sudanese refugees.
John Ging, Operations Director for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), just back from Ethiopia, told a news conference at UN Headquarters today: "This is a manmade problem – the result of a political disagreement between two powerful individuals. It is tragic to see this happening in the world's youngest country, whose independence we were so recently celebrating."
"It is imperative that parties to the conflict, and those with influence over them, find a peaceful political solution urgently," Mr. Ging said. "The people of South Sudan must not be treated as expendable pawns in this power struggle."
An estimated 180,000 refugees have arrived in Ethiopia from South Sudan since the violence erupted in late 2013 with numbers set to reach 300,000-350,000 by the end of this year.
He said that in addition to the more than 400,000 refugees who have fled their homeland for neighbouring countries, including Ethiopia, the "desperate situation" in South Sudan has forced 1.1 million people to leave their homes inside the country and 3.8 million victims of the war inside South Sudan require humanitarian aid.
Mr. Ging said 90 per cent of those arriving in Ethiopia are women and children and 70 per cent are under the age of 18. People are arriving in a dire state, with some 30 per cent of new arrivals under the age of five acutely malnourished, and 10 per cent severely acutely malnourished, meaning that without urgent treatment they are likely to die of starvation.
"I applaud the generosity of the people and Government of Ethiopia, who are now hosting almost 600,000 refugees" from neighbouring countries South Sudan, Sudan, Somalia and Eritrea.
"Despite not being a rich country, they have consistently kept their borders open, and are an example of international standard for the treatment of refugees in practice. It is now the international community's turn to step up and shoulder its responsibilities to share the burden with Ethiopia." So far, of the 193 Member States of the United Nations, only 18 are funding the appeal.
The $211 million South Sudanese refugee appeal for Ethiopia is just 25 per cent funded, which means that across the board delivery of service does not meet what the refugees are entitled.
"Only 5 per cent of school-age children in Gambella have access to education, which sets us up for huge problems down the road, and in the camp I visited only 20 per cent of people had shelter which meets international humanitarian standards," noted Mr. Ging.
"Camps are overcrowded and, with the onset of the rainy season, the danger of a disease epidemic is very real," he said. "Urgent funding is needed to ensure that those fleeing violence in South Sudan can live decently, healthily and with dignity."
With the prospects of famine on the horizon in South Sudan, and no prospect for an end to the conflict, humanitarians must prepare for the worst in South Sudan and neighbouring countries.
The veteran humanitarian official described South Sudan as one of three "mega" crises in the world today on a trajectory to becoming a real catastrophe. The two other "mega" humanitarian crises today are Syria and the Central African Republic.

Can You Pass the PMAT Test?
Greetings Al, I have recently finished the PMAI manual and I think its excellent and well put together. I already have a number of your books, but this one is my favorite.
What I like about this specific book is the way you have laid and lined out the information from many of the your earlier books in a very easy to understand format.
Really, the first two sentences sum up the importance and need, for this book.
("The essence of a teacher is the ability to transmit a thought to a student. Without this ability there is no education, there is no future for civilization.")
To the point that although I have done many of the things, and practiced your arts described in the manual, this book has a load of new information. That I find very valuable and even after 7yrs of working on the material, you are correct, in your earlier newsletter about valuable new information.
Excellent information again!
As stated earlier, I have read the book in its entirety and will read it again. I would suggest one thing, I think a few study questions at the end of each chapter, would be a great study aid...maybe just a few questions per chapter and a answer page, at the end of the book.
I think that this will help as a study aid. If even though, like me, you have scribbled notes in your copy, a study guide would be beneficial.
Really a great manual if you are aspiring to be a PMAI.
Well done Professor!
I do believe I will pursue certification.
Have a great workout ~ SG
To Master Al case
I'd like to thank you for putting in all the time and effort into writing the professional martial arts instructor course it is a fantastic read.
I had some great realisations even after a quick reading through,
One is from Page number #61.
Standing squarely in a room,
Weight 50/50 approx
I've read this before in the master instructor course but it all started to fit for me in that moment.
Two is on Page #68
To hold the body in place
(unbendable position's)
Launch the body through space,
(spring out, spring in)
Got me Thinking about the muscles as a Spring.
So I stood squarely in a room like a fight Stance feet parallelled shoulder with apart, 50/50 approx
Lifted the front foot slightly moving it Fallword, loading the weight on the back leg as I do so.
Keeping the whole body relaxed and letting the spring back of the front leg and the spring Forward of the back leg launch me Forward into a Front Stance.
It felt effortless for me.
Another point I wish to bring up is about Punching (To hold the body in place) 63 isometric exercise to build power, and it hit me I'm training all wrong,
Page # 77 and on. SNAPPING and thrusting I'm still using muscles and the way you compare it to boxing really helped me a lot,
I fixed my problem with an exercise of plank on unbendable position bearing the body weight on the fists.
I went one step further but going from one hand to the other simultaneously trying to move fast enough to reduce impact, going to the floor, not through it.
The main thing was to teach me to bear the weight of my body. If I was tense I would move slow and then...POW! I'd hit the ground hard, so soft, relaxed and controlled.
After doing this for five minutes, I then hit the heavy bag and wow!...it was like magic just in a 50/50 Stance the bag went flying! It was effortless!
Thank you again, and I hope this book gets out to everyone, it is very dense with info.
Have a great workout.
From Kyuss B (Australia)

Former Anne Arundel County Executive John Leopold is out of jail.
Leopold served a 30-day sentence for misconduct in office. The Capital of Annapolis http://tinyurl.com/btaoulz reported that Leopold left the Jennifer Road Detention Center Friday morning.
Leopold still must serve 30 days of home detention, perform 400 hours of community service and pay a $75,000 fine. A judge convicted him in January of forcing members of his security detail to perform campaign work and having another county employee empty his urinary catheter bag.
The 70-year-old Republican resigned from office three days after he was convicted.
Leopold did not speak to reporters as he left the jail.
While in jail, officials said Leopold asked for his preferred breakfast food and items including an electric shaver. Those requests were denied.

Top Things to Do in and Around Lake Louise:
Hike up to Lake Agnes, one of the most popular hiking trails. Though it's not one of the longest hikes and is easily completed in half a day, Lake Agnes is the perfect place to take a rest, enjoy lunch, or perhaps stop by the teahouse. Built in 1910, the log cabin is the perfect place to sit and enjoy the view while sipping a cup of tea or snacking on the baked goods, made fresh each morning.
If you're feeling rested, and replenished, circle around Lake Agnes and up to the Beehive Gazebo for breathtaking views of the surrounding area.
Still ready for more? Take the highline trail to the Plain of Six Teahouse. A little larger than the Lake Agnes Teahouse, this one boasts the same warm cups of tea and baked goods. Enjoy the views of six different glaciers, as well as the occasion sights and sounds of a far off avalanche. It's all downhill from there as you hike back down to the lake, finishing your day with the fairly flat stroll from the back of beautiful Lake Louise, watching the Chateau gradually grow as you reach the end of your adventure.
Want to experience Lake Louise and Moraine Lake but aren't so much of a hiker? If you tend to be more of a water baby, a canoe is ready and waiting for you. With canoes available for rental at both lakes, this could be the romantic excursion of a lifetime or a family adventure never to be forgotten.
For those whose thirst for adventure cannot be quenched by a canoe water fight, then don't hesitate to take the next step from the flat water of the Lakes to the rapids of the Kicking Horse River, on your very own Wild Water Adventure. If hurdling through the class IV rapids of the Classic trip isn't enough of a thrill for you, embark on the Maximum Horsepower trip, with class IV+ rapids it will take you on a ride you won't ever forget. If you're feeling a little intimidated by the larger rapids, or want to make it a family affair and bring the children the Gentle Journey is calling your name, however don't be fooled, gentle or not, you will get wet!
Up, up and away… soar to the top of the world on the Lake Louise Gondola. This fourteen minute ride in either traditional enclosed gondola cars or an open chair takes you to an elevation of 6850 feet, leaving you with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains… and, if you look closely enough, even a glimpse of Lake Louise itself. Complete your journey by embarking on one of the several simple hikes or partake in one of their interpretive programs as you learn about local animals and how they survive. Perhaps you'll even be lucky enough to glimpse one of these animals as you ride back down.

You'll hear it as five syllables- diliburutly- and four- dilibrutly.
This is a 5 syllable word pronounced WITH or WITHOUT syllabic "r":Originally Posted by Saul Hernandez
"dI"[email protected](a)t.li"
If it's pronounced without, then how does it remain a five-syllable word? Many speakers lose the sound before the 'r' in speech, thus losing a syllable, just as 'interesting' often becomes a three-syllable word.

Interesting & yes you're right there. It's usually a 5-syllable word, EXCEPT course, if "r" is used as a "syllabic r".Originally Posted by tdol
Okey dokey.

The woman accused of trying to extort hundreds of thousands of dollars from "ER" and "Full House" actor John Stamos had a spring break fling with him when she was just 17, an attorney said.
The woman, Allison Coss, now 24, and an associate named Scott Sippola are both on trial in Michigan, where they launched their alleged scheme to blackmail the 46-year-old actor for $680,000, claiming they had photos of him with strippers and cocaine. Defense lawyer Sarah Henderson alleged the affair during opening arguments in federal court.
Stamos, who attended the trial's opening day, declined comment to The Associated Press but is expected to testify.
U.S. & World
His attorney, William Sobel, issued a statement through publicist Matt Polk that said: "The allegations made today in the courtroom by the defendants during opening statements will not be proven because they are simply untrue."
Prosecutors contend the pictures don't exist, and FBI agents testified Monday they found no such photos while searching the defendants' house after their arrest.
Coss and Stamos met in Orlando, Fla., in 2004 — shortly after Stamos had separated from his wife, actress and supermodel Rebecca Romijn. The couple divorced the next year.
Sippola's defense is that there was nothing illegal about his plan to sell embarrassing photos to magazines if Stamos refused to buy them He claims the FBI lost or destroyed the photos.
Sippola's attorney offered the defense as a deadline for a plea bargain elapsed and the case headed for a July 12 trial.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Maarten Vermaat said Sippola was raising a "standard defense in blackmail cases."

Editor's note: Art of Movement is CNN's monthly show exploring the latest innovations in art, culture, science and technology.
(CNN) -- Andrew "Goofy" Saunders is like no stripper you've ever seen before.
For one, he's built like a wrestler with a rainbow afro that "Krusty the Clown" could only dream of. For two, his stage is a hurtling train. And for three -- this is the clincher -- the only item of clothing he's likely to shed is his baseball cap.
But boy, does this 20-year-old from the Bronx know how to dance around a pole.
"We tell people we're part time strippers," he says over the phone, the sound of cars blaring in the background of his native New York.
"It's just a little joke, it gets people to laugh."
"We call it Lite Feet"
Saunders is the founder of WAFFLE (We are Family for Life Entertainment), a group of 15 dancers whose gravity-defying pole pirouettes -- accompanied by thumping beatbox tunes -- have earned them quite a reputation on the city's subway.
Every week the young men -- aged between 17 and 21 -- perform their special brand of breakdancing turned ballet on the underground trains; delighting, bemusing, and sometimes infuriating commuters.
The urban acrobats swing from handrails or backflip down aisles, with the ease and bravado of youngsters who grew up using the city as a giant dance floor.
"Chicken Noodle Soup," "Needle and Thread," "Walking on Air" -- these are the names of some of WAFFLE's signature moves, performed with a cheeky swagger to their own mish-mash recordings of hip hop, funk, and electro beats.
"The way we move -- our energy, our shoe tricks, our hat tricks -- is something that's completely new," said Saunders.
"We call it 'Lite Feet' -- it's a mixture of dances put together," he added. "There's this dance, the 'Charleston' (made popular in the 1920s), and that's one of the closest things we've been able to find to it."
"Everyone has an opinion"
"It's showtime!" has become something of a rallying cry for the buskers, who usually split into smaller groups of three, targeting the busiest carriages to earn up to $100 a day.
Watch one of the many YouTube clips of the dancers expertly twirling their caps on a perfectly poised elbow or nonchalantly "Moonwalking" along a trundling train, and the reactions are as varied as New Yorkers themselves -- grandmothers cheer, hipsters appear bored, and tourists scramble for their phones.
"There are a lot of copycats out there now," says Saunders, who first started busking seven years ago.
"Everyone has an opinion. But this is how we make a living, so we don't have to ask our parents for money or have a boring job. We're just trying to do something positive."
Not everyone sees their shows in the same light, with a New York Times article on the troupe attracting some unfavorable comments.
"They definitely have some impressive moves. They are also extremely annoying, and more importantly—dangerous," wrote Josh F.
Has Saunders ever hurt anyone during his act?
"No. Just a little graze, but I've never really hit anyone," he said. "People don't know I've been doing it for years. I know what I'm doing."
From Bronx to big time?
It was as young teens growing up in low income households in Harlem, Brooklyn and the Bronx, that Saunders and his fancy-footed friends first came up with the idea of busking as a way to raise money to attend local dance competitions -- or "battles."
"You had to pay $10 to get in, so asking your mom every week got annoying. Or they probably won't have the money to give to you right away."
"We had an idea to go on the train and make the money ourselves. And the money was good -- we made over the amount we needed. So we just kept on going."
The troupe has since appeared in various video clips and mini documentaries, with member "Kid the Wiz" even taking his deft hat tricks and comedic style across the country on "America's Got Talent."
"My main goal is to get off the train and work with more people," said Saunders.
"I want to bring Lite Feet to the world."

Democrat Ron Barber has won a full term representing Arizona's 2nd Congressional District, squeaking out a win over Republican Martha McSally and giving Democrats a sweep of the state's three competitive races for U.S. House seats.
Voters decisively picked Barber to fill out the remainder of former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords term in a special election in June, but last week's election was for a full term and was so tight it took until Saturday before a winner was clear. Barber and McSally each held leads since election night, with a difference of only a few dozen votes at times, before Barber steadily began pulling ahead.
By late Friday, Barber had a 1,402-vote margin with more than 285,000 votes cast in the race. Only about 15,000 provisional ballots remain to be counted in Pima County, although not all are in the 2nd District. An Associated Press analysis determined Barber's lead could not be overcome.
"I'm really proud and honored that I've been given another opportunity to serve," Barber told the AP on Saturday. "I never expected to be in Congress. When I won the special election I was thrilled about that and now I have two years to get some work done, and I really understand what the issues are nationally and locally and I'm going to be working hard on those."
Barber said McSally called and congratulated him at midmorning, and conceded the race.
McSally planned a 2 p.m. Saturday press conference in Tucson. Her campaign manager could not be immediately reached Saturday morning.
Barber is Giffords' former district director and she endorsed his candidacy. He touted his lengthy history in the district, his moderate views and his strong backing for veterans and border security.
He was with Giffords at a constituent meet-and-greet in Tucson in January 2011 when a mentally ill man, Jared Lee Loughner, opened fire, killing six and wounding 13 others. Giffords was hit in the head and ultimately had to step down from her seat, while Barber was hit in the thigh and cheek.
McSally is a former Air Force pilot who was making her first run for political office. Her surprisingly close finish showed that the 2nd District remains a true swing district that either party can win with the right candidate.
The district, which resembles Arizona's old 8th Congressional District before redistricting, covers parts of Tucson and Pima County and all of Cochise County.
Barber's victory means Democrats have the majority of the state's congressional delegation, holding five of the state's nine U.S. House seats, while Republicans' only congressional victories in Arizona were in districts safe for GOP candidates.
The Republicans had a 5-3 advantage in the state's U.S. House delegation going into the Nov. 6 election, which filled a new ninth seat.
Democrat Krysten Sinema won the new Phoenix-area 9th District over former Paradise Valley mayor Vernon Parker, while Democrat Ann Kirkpatrick regained her old congressional seat by beating Republican Jonathan Paton in the 1st District.
With Rep. Jeff Flake's victory over Democrat Richard Carmona, Republicans will continue to hold both of the state's U.S. House seats.
Barber said he was not surprised that the race was so tight, considering the state redistricting commission intentionally designed it and two others — the ones won by Sinema and Kirkpatrick — to be winnable by either party. The other five Arizona congressional seats are basically winnable by only one party, four Republican seats and two Democratic.
"We just worked really hard to get our message out, and to make sure that we could say who we are and what I'm about to voters," he said.

Every year, the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) puts around 70,000 to 80,000 Hong Kong students to the test. The HKDSE first came into effect in 2012, and is taken at the end of a student's six-year secondary school education. The exams are spread out over a few months, from around mid-February to early May, with results available in July the same year. The results are considered an indicator of that student's success in their future application to tertiary institutions.

Today a good blogger friend of mine was featured in the New York Times, it talks about life simplification and what actually makes humans happy. Not only is it inspiring, interesting and thought provoking, it is backed up with a good bit of research. The article is really well written and I strongly encourage you all to read it.
A two-bedroom apartment. Two cars. Enough wedding china to serve two dozen people.
Yet Tammy Strobel wasn't happy. Working as a project manager with an investment management firm in Davis, Calif., and making about $40,000 a year, she was, as she put it, caught in the "work-spend treadmill."
So one day she stepped off.
Inspired by books and blog entries about living simply, Ms. Strobel and her husband, Logan Smith, both 31, began donating some of their belongings to charity. As the months passed, out went stacks of sweaters, shoes, books, pots and pans, even the television after a trial separation during which it was relegated to a closet. Eventually, they got rid of their cars, too. Emboldened by a Web site that challenges consumers to live with just 100 personal items, Ms. Strobel winnowed down her wardrobe and toiletries to precisely that number.

Going home to dad
Duana sent me the cutest email the other day. The title was "I'm a sap" and she was referring to her reaction after seeing these photos of Angelina Jolie and her daughters Miss Zahara and the Chosen One Shiloh looking like they're all having a great time leaving a costume store. Full Story
Oh Happy Day
Oh happy dayOh happy dayyyyy Oh happy dayWhen Shiloh washedWhen Shiloh washedWhen sweet Shiloh washedWhen Shiloh washedShe washed my sins away Brangelunatics have been email bombing me all day. The crime: not wishing The Chosen One a Happy Birthday at the beginning of her birthday. The Brange's first blonde baby arrived four years ago in Namibia, accompanied by angels and harps, and since then, well, she's become the Obsession. Full Story
Healed by the Chosen One
The Pitts went shopping for baby goods yesterday in Cannes and the whole town lost its sh-t. This is because the Chosen One Shiloh was brought down from her home in the clouds for a walk among mortals. The paparazzi were well prepared. I received a text as I was leaving the junket that they were mobilising from their usual spots to congregate around the First Family, amused that they had decided on the busiest time of day and also the busiest day period to go "shopping". Full Story
Family Pitt Christmas Present
The Family Pitt went on a family bike ride the other day in New Orleans with the kids, giving the the paps and the Brangelunatics a rare glimpse of the Chosen One strapped with mom as Miss Zahara, Maddox, and Pax load up with dad. Photographers of course were delighted by the gift – according to Forbes. Full Story
Aniston & The Chosen One
Stephen Huvane's primary duty as Jennifer Aniston's publicist is to deny everything. His target this time is a publication no one has ever heard of based in the UK. Look Magazine claims to have landed an exclusive interview with Aniston in which she reveals the true nature of her relationship with Paul Sculfor, her hook ups with Brad Pitt's mother Jane, and her meeting with The Chosen One Shiloh Jolie-Pitt. Full Story
Family Pitt: Weekend at Sea
Brad and Angelina in Chicago on Saturday taking their four children out to sea for some family fun at the Water & Air festival. Miss Zahara kills me. And Maddox too. Check him out excitedly tugging on his mother's purse handle. And before the MiniVan Majority gets their tits all twisted up in knots, Angelina did indeed spend time with the Chosen One, holding her little hands as she took a few tentative steps towards Daddy which the tabloids will likely interpret next week as a frantic "save me" escape dash for the safety of her father's arms from the dangerous blob-hating ones of her mother. Full Story
Her One Move
Again with this tired ass play. Jennifer Aniston – a month ago she was dating that model Paul Sculfor. Then he was photographed leaving her house holding a bottle of water – same company she endorses. Two weeks after that – big headlines: they broke up. Now Us Weekly is calling her single, sad, and pathetic on the cover and all of a sudden, Jennifer and Paul are back on…according to OK Magazine. Full Story
Jeans for a Change
Angelina Jolie in Prague yesterday actually wearing jeans and not trousers for a change. She looks good in jeans non? Also pics from earlier this week, Angelina picking up the kids while Brad was off shooting a commercial. As you can see, Pax seems rather attached to their trusty security dude Mickey. Full Story
Take That Little Sci!
Not content with letting GMD's baby steal the cute spotlight, or her sister for that matter, here's Zahara Jolie Pitt smiling large and showing her daddy who's boss. SOOOOO cute! Can totally see her ruling that house. Like Angelina recently said in Marie Claire – Z is a clever little girl who can manipulate her way into getting a cookie. Full Story
The Chosen One to the Rescue
Works for me… On the heels of last week's media contract debacle getting in the way of overwhelmingly positive reviews for A Mighty Heart, check out Angelina Jolie on two occasions this weekend out and about with the famed Chosen One. Full Story
Well…not quite. His mother was there – good to know even the horny Pitts have a sense of propriety around the parents, which accounts for the limited ass holding last night at the NYC premiere of A Mighty Heart. I'm told Mrs Pitt seemed very fond of the mother of her grandchildren, was joined by Brad's sister and Angelina's brother and all seemed surprisingly familial given tabloid reports of family estrangement after Aniston.

Stroke is a brain attack, cutting off vital blood and oxygen to the brain cells that control everything we do – from speaking, to walking, to breathing. Symptoms of a stroke typically present as a sudden loss of motor function, as the brain suffers from a lack of oxygenated blood.
Most strokes occur when arteries are blocked by blood clots or by the gradual build-up of plaque and other fatty deposits. Some strokes can be caused by arteries rupturing when weak spots on the blood vessel wall break.
When the brain is not receiving enough oxygenated blood due to the rupture or blockage, brain cells begin to die. The faster you are able to recognize the symptoms of a stroke and treat the brain attack, the more likely it is you will be able to save somebody's life.
Get help right away if any of the following symptoms come on suddenly, even if the symptoms don't last.
Weakness: You may feel weakness, tingling or a loss of feeling on one side of your face or body.
Vision Problems: You may have sudden double vision or trouble seeing in one or both eyes.
Speech Problems: You may have sudden trouble talking, slurred speech or problems understanding others.
Headache: You may have a sudden, severe headache.
Movement Problems: You may experience dizziness, a feeling of spinning, a loss of balance, a feeling of falling, or blackouts.
If you have any of these symptoms of a stroke, call 911 and your doctor immediately to quickly treat an instance of brain attack. Hinsdale, Illinois is home to Adventist Hinsdale Hospital's Stroke Certified Neurology Department, and provides patient care and treatment for stroke victims.

I prepared this dish this morning and it was an instant hit. I had all the ingredients except the broccoli so I left it out. I downsized the recipe slightly for just my husband and myself. It is quick and easy and delicious. I will definitely prepare this again. Here is the link to my review and photos:

I study in a christian University and it is very common to get picked on by a lecturer to pray for the class before any given lecture commences. I havent been as unfortunate as to be chosen to lead "brethren" into a word of prayer but am sure a day will finally come when am picked out. So fellow thinkers, any ideas on how to go about it if the day comes? What reason can you give a lecturer whose age tripples yours, why you can not pray, and not sound like you are disrespecting him? suggestions highly welcome
Views: 768
not to mention that some may go based on the financial aid offered to them by a xtian school...
2 and 3 were my reasons.
I began studying religion in a christian school because I wanted to be a minister.
In the course of studies I became and Atheist and tacked philosophy onto my major. I could still go in to the ministry if I so desired I guess. But I don't desire so.
1 and 2 are the reasons
Most educated Christians I have met are able to accept disagreement, in fact they are quite often respectful of those who do not share their opinion. I would apologize and request that he appoints someone else, as you are not a Christian and do not wish to affront their beliefs by falsely participating in their rituals.
Tough situation. I agree that you should first look into what obligations you have to the university as a student there. I say this because, the practice of calling on people as opposed to asking for volunteers makes it seem more like a requirement of class attendance than a choice for those who wish to pray. However, you also state that it is common, which implies that it is not universal (e.g. not all lecturers in all classes follow this procedure). You need to ascertain if this is just a cultural practice or a formal policy for the university at large. If it's a formal policy and you still have an issue with it, then you may need to take that up with the university admin as opposed to the lecturers to see what your choices are. If it is a cultural practice of certain lecturers, then I suggest privately approaching each lecturer to let them know that it is your preference to not be called on to lead the prayer. I'd say that your reasons for this are your own personal matters, and that you shouldn't feel obligated to explain why. Easier said than done, but if you remain calm, stay polite and consistent, and stick to the issue of mutual respect (rather than personal beliefs and who's right or wrong), you should be better off for it. Good luck!
Simply say "I don't believe in prayer and I would feel intellectually dishonest if I was to pretend I did. No disrespect intended, but I don't share your faith."
Remain silent. Don't say anything. Don't explain why you won't start the prayers. Don't even shrug your shoulders. Just look blankly over his head as if you cannot hear him or understand the meaning of what you are being asked. If he or any students ask you what you were doing or why you would not pray say nothing but adopt the same blank expression. Never explain to them what you are doing. Then continue as normal with everything else – as if nothing happened – which of course it didn't. Never explain it – never complain about it.
If chosen, start singing the alphabet song, or counting, or ordering a big mac meal and try to get onion rings instead of fries (which McDonalds doesn't have), Even better, start your prayer by listing all the gods you know in alphabetical order and pray to them one by one.
Guarantee you'll only be asked once.
On a more serious note. Don't wait for him to call you, go to him after your next class and let him know you're not exactly personally comfortable with praying in public. You don't need to give him a reason unless he asks, and if he does all you need to say is that it's something concerning religion. Be honest, but sadly in this case I think you must be somewhat evasive if you want to stay "under cover", so if he pries just say something like "I like to keep my prayer life private." Yes you do not have a "prayer life" but that's why it's private... right? Basically what you want is to give him just the right amount of information to deduce that you are seriously not okay with praying in public, but to deduce nothing else at all.
Play the game or stand up for the truth and deal with the consequences, but first weight the Pro's and Con's. What are you in this University for in the first place? Whatever it is, keep the goal in mind and do what you need to, to reach that goal. If Sheep's clothing get's you thru the herd to the exit at the other side of the pasture, you're still a Wolf and you can throw off the Sheep's skin now that you no longer need it.
Why make your Academic life harder then it needs to be?
Shucks I'll forgive you for 'going along to get along', if that makes you feel better about blowing smoke up their ass to get to your goal.
Enjoy life, you only get the one.
You're in an unusual situation. I would probably try to say something like "I'm sorry, I'm not comfortable with that" and just let everyone assume you're shy. If that doesn't work, I'd just go ahead and do a short, generic prayer. Think about what you'd say beforehand, so you have something in mind and can wrap it up quickly. You don't have to impress your fellow atheists by taking some pointless stand in a classroom -- we don't have some kind of dogma you'd be betraying. Get it over with, get on with your life, and forget it. You know you don't believe it, and it's not a life-or-death situation, so who cares?
