So you go to a new blog, and in less than 10 seconds, you've probably decided whether to stay and read or not. What makes you stay? What makes you go? Keep in mind, you haven't had time to read any content -- maybe titles.
Thank you
I'm currently getting rid of non-important widgets :D
If the banner or a lot of images on the sidebars that are really poor quality generally turn me away in an instant. Just text is preference over poor quality images.
I understand what you mean! Actually, I just don't like reading blogs with really dark backgrounds and light text because that just hurts the eyes.
I agree with you Vivian. White text on black especially, use to be really popular and so hard on the eyes.
Visited your blog, like the layout, easy on the eyes and brain. Nice reviews. I listened
to The Help and it was a great book, sad, but good.
Thanks for reading!
I like creative blogs, but not overly congested...only because I get sensory overload with too much bling, as it were. Simplicity is probably best, but again, some measure of creativity is compelling, adding a greater dimension to the blogger and the blog.
What draws me to a blog would definitely be content, clean lines work, but not too plain. I don't care for flashy, blinking pics, etc. and I don't really like music/sounds in the background.
If anyone has time, could they look over my site and tell me your likes/dislikes or improvements that I should make as far as:
my overall layout design, background color, and or/ text color.
I'm fairly new to the blogging world (almost 3 months)
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time and your input.
Hi there :) If anything, the white text on black background is hard on the eyes and the text seems a bit big. I personally find it hard to read after a while. Otherwise I like your blog.
Thanks for the input! I'm peeking over at your blog now! It looks good and I'm a new follower!

A "Sage" (仙人, Sennin) is someone who is able to utilise senjutsu (仙術; Literally meaning "Sage Techniques"), and has mastered the art of Sage Mode or someone given said title because of their renown for their great power, wisdom, or holy standing.
Main articles: Senjutsu and Sage Mode Senjutsu (仙術; Literally meaning "Sage Techniques") refers to a specialised field of techniques that allows the user to sense and then gather the natural energy (自然エネルギー, shizen enerugī) around a person.
Senjutsu practitioners can then learn to draw the energy of nature inside of them blending it with their own chakra (created from spiritual and physical energy within the shinobi), adding a new dimension of power to the sage's chakra, resulting in the creation of "senjutsu chakra" (仙術チャクラ, senjutsu chakura). This chakra cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have been trained in senjutsu. This new chakra enables the user to enter an empowered state called Sage Mode, which can then drastically increase the strength of all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu. A person who is able to use senjutsu is called a sage (仙人, sennin). Currently, there are two known ways to learn senjutsu: One being to learn from the toads of Mount Myōboku as Jiraiya and Naruto have done, and the other from the snakes from the Ryūchi Cave where Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi learned it. The cursed seals that Orochimaru has used in the series also use senjutsu chakra.
A third form of senjutsu is also known, used by Hashirama Senju. Unlike previous methods, Hashirama doesn't display any animal traits. It is unknown where he obtained his senjutsu style from. Very few people are shown to have mastered senjutsu. This is because both learning and using senjutsu is not safe; death may easily occur while learning to use it. Fukasaku claims that the toad sculptures on Mount Myōboku are those who failed to master the art of senjutsu. Naruto Uzumaki, Kabuto Yakushi, Orochimaru and Jiraiya are currently the only known human users of senjutsu. Other animals such as Fukasaku and Shima are also able to use it with the White Snake Sage and Great Toad Sage amongst others, being at least knowledgeable in it.
Other Uses
"Sage" can also refer to an individual renowned for their great power, wisdom, or holy standing.
- The Sage of the Six Paths was one of the most famous sages in the series, a legendary figure who discovered chakra, created modern ninjutsu, the one who saved the world from the Ten-Tails and was the first jinchūriki. It is unknown if he too was capable of using natural energy.
- Son Gokū's moniker: The Great Sage Equalling Heaven (斉天大聖, Seiten Taisei) also makes mention of being a Sage.

Torque on a hub as a result from a flexible arm |

Torque on a hub as a result from a flexible arm
I'm working on a research project as a graduate student in engineering. I'm modeling a set of equations in Simulink and MATLAB derived from a journal entry.
I'm a little rusty on classical mechanics as my specialization is electrical engineering. I want to model the angular torque on a hub as a result from a flexible arm that has mass (and therefore inertia). The hub is a flat (or nearly flat) solid cylinder that also has mass. The arm is a type of flexible material that can move on its own (piezoelectric to be specific). The flexible arm will have a sinusoidal motion of some kind, this motion will translate into torque on the hub. I would like to go from the motion of the arm to an output of the torque on the hub. It doesn't have to be specific, just a general way of solving or going about such a problem. I have included a diagram to help demonstrate what I mean. The axis of rotation (though not attached to anything, no friction) is labeled "O". Any help with this would be much appreciated! |

Do you mean a torque arising from the reaction against the arms as they move through some fluid, or from the inertia of the arms themselves (or both)?
If the first, you need some expression for the force per unit length that arises for a given rate of movement of a section of the arm. |
Jan21-13, 12:03 AM | #3 |
Sorry, I should have specified that. This would be in an ideal vacuum, so only from the inertia of the arms themselves.

Torque on a hub as a result from a flexible arm
That's relatively easy, then.
Consider an element ds of an arm. At time t it will be (in polar relative to hub centre) at some position (r=r(t), θ=θ(t)). The tangential acceleration is ##r\ddot{\theta}+2\dot{r}\dot{\theta}##. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_c...ector_calculus If the element has mass dm (=ρds if uniform density) then the reactive torque is ##-(r\ddot{\theta}+2\dot{r}\dot{\theta})r.dm## |

The arms flap, and the hub spins.
Jan21-13, 12:43 AM | #6 |
I see, this makes sense. Will this account for the flexibility of the arm as well? I suppose I would specify that motion somehow. Also, this gives torque from the arm, so I can translate this directly to where the arm is mounted on the central hub correct? The hub will have a moment of inertia as well, and the end result I'm trying to reach is its angular motion around the axis "O" (in the center). In the end I would have a torque from the arm on one side of the equation and the torque applied to the hub on the other. Solving for the motion on the hub would it come out to angular acceleration? I really appreciate the help, this seems to be a problem that's not easily found by searching or flipping through text books. |
Jan21-13, 12:50 AM | #7 |
While I'm here, let me pose a conceptual question:
If these arms were to have a motion profile in which they move much faster in one direction than the other, translating to a higher acceleration in one direction (but for a shorter time) in one direction, can this result in an overall angular velocity of the hub? It wouldn't be smooth I imagine, but can a rotation be created in this way? It doesn't seem possible to me, but I believe one of the research sources is indicating this to be the case. |

Neglecting the modes of the flexible arm, the equation looks like this: ##J\ddot{\theta}+ {\sum}({\rho}\ddot{\theta}qin^2 + 2{\rho}\dot{\theta}qin\dot qin + Jn\ddot qin)## Where J is the inertia of the hub, Jn is the inertia of the arm, and qin is the motion of the arm. The summation (I'm not versed in Latex) is i=1 to k, I think this is for point mass along the arm. |
Jan21-13, 01:24 AM | #10 |
Sorry, all that is equal to the external torque. I was trying to take this equation equal to zero and produce a rotation. But it didn't make sense.
Jan21-13, 06:44 PM | #11 |
The system can't gain angular momentum without an external couple force being applied.

1. Arms flattened against hub, anticlockwise, say. System stationary. 2. Swing arms outstretched clockwise until flat against hub again. System stationary once more, but hub has rotated anticlockwise. 3. Curl tip of arm back, anticlockwise, but keeping it flat against itself. Slide tip anticlockwise around hub until arm back in original position. System stationary once more. Hub rotated clockwise during step 3, but not as much as it rotated anticlockwise at step 2. |
Jan21-13, 11:45 PM | #13 |
My point was that if the arms are moving in opposite directions, there is a couple due to the equal but opposite forces across the body as a result of the symmetry. If the arms are waving clockwise, the central body must turn counter-clockwise to keep the total angular momentum at zero. Everything stops rotating when the arms reach the end of their travel.

Sorry, I've been away. Yes, what I am working asks the question on whether or not a long term change in angular position of the hub can be created by some motion of the arms. They would move in the same direction (both CCW or CW when they move).
The arms would consist of a piezoelectric material, so they can only deflect in the same fashion either direction. They can't replicate the way a cat would do this to change position. The arms can't be shorter in one direction than the other. If you could imagine the inverse of the diagram shown above, that's exactly the way it would look if the arms were to move the other direction. My question was whether or not how these arms move could create a long term change in the position of the hub around the "O" axis. I had the impression that a very fast motion, say in the CCW direction, and a very slow motion (estimate a 4th of the time it takes for the CCW motion) in the CW direction would produce a higher angular acceleration in the CCW direction than the CW direction and therefore higher torque. However, it seems that the higher torque would occur for a smaller time than the lower torque which should equal out to a zero net change in position of the hub over time. This is a flapping motion if you will. The paper I'm referencing for this is attached, but perhaps I'm reading it wrong. It isn't my background so I'm a bit unsure of how I'm reading it. Equation (20) is the Lagrange equation of motion that I was using to attempt to prove this theory. |
Jan22-13, 10:07 PM | #16 |
I should note that (zeta) on the right hand side is equal to zero for my purpose, as there are no outside torques present. I'm trying to create one.
Jan22-13, 11:43 PM | #17 |
The math in that paper is a bit over my head. But I can offer this that you need to consider the nature of angular momentum and that it can be defined as the product of torque x time. So you can move an object slowly with over a long time with a small torque or move it fast with a large torque for a short time and still get the same angular momentum. Since the arms have nothing to push against in space, the system can't gain any angular momentum by flapping the arms. The speed doesn't really matter. The center body will shift in the opposite direction of the arms to conserve the total angular momentum. You won't be able to cause the body to spin, but you'd be able to change it's rotation angle.

Random Thoughts on Rondo's Offseason Friday, September 21, 2012 by FLCeltsFan 11:29 PM Earlier today, Loy posted about Rondo's fantastic Asian trip. Looking at that, I started to thinking about the off-season and how different some players are. Most people who know me know that I love Celtics history and am always reading something from the past. We can learn some very important lessons from the Celtics legends. For instance, Larry Bird was one of the greatest players to ever step on the court. He didn't have the physical tools that a lot of players have. He wasn't athletic and he couldn't jump and he wasn't fast. But yet, he was one of the most dominant players of any era. It didn't just happen, either. Larry Bird was also one of the hardest working players in league history. When a season ended, Larry was right back out on the court working on his game, especially if the team missed out on the championship. He worked tirelessly on his conditioning, on his shooting, and on every facet of his game. He also tried to add a new wrinkle to his game every off-season to keep his opponents off guard. He didn't want to be too easy for them to guard. Larry didn't go on trips. He didn't do fun things. He worked and got better. All of that brings me back to Rondo's summer. First, there were interviews and photos surface from Rondo's visit to France where he attended Nike's World Basketball Festival. He did a clinic there but didn't seem to have a lot of time for working on his own game. He then traveled to Asia for Red Bull and had a very busy time over there, again seemingly without a lot of time to work on his own game: Hope you like this one. Here's a recap video of Rajon's visits to Taiwan, the Philippines and Hong Kong. He hosted multiple youth clinics, a court refurbishment, and qualifiers for Red Bull King of the Rock. He also was able to spend some down time on the water while in Hong Kong, "becoming one with the banana boat" and doing some wakeboarding. After his Asia trip we next found Rondo interning at GQ magazine and writing blogs about hats and having a great time carrying bags and coffee and delivering mail and all sorts of fun things. He was seen at Fashion Week and generally was a man about town. Then we had his appearance on BET's 106 and Park, being the fashion plate and witty interviewee. He's hung out with the University of Kentucky girls volleyball team. He's been out at UCLA playing flag football. Next, he's heading to Alcatraz for the King of the Rock tournament. The one thing that I haven't read anything about is how he's been working hard on his game. Rondo is a great player, but let's face it, he has areas that he needs some work on. It would be nice if we heard that he was working hard on his shot or on his free throws. Just because we haven't heard anything about his working on his game or his shot or his free throws doesn't mean that he hasn't been doing it behind the scenes, but with a schedule like he had this summer, I don't see how he had the time to do too much. Brandon Bass went to China and put on clinics there, but he also took his shooting coach with him and worked on his game in between the clinics and the public appearances. If Rondo did something like that, I would think that one of the articles would have mentioned it. I know that Rondo's had a fun summer and has done a lot of things. But, I can't help but wonder if maybe he should have done a little more to be ready for the season. Larry Bird proved that you don't become the best without hard work. Rondo said in one interview that he thinks he's the best point guard in the league. He's one of the best. If he wants to be the best, it's going to come with a lot of hard work and less fun and games. [Discuss on CG Forums!] Comments: People should get off of Rondo's back !!!!! It's his life, so he can absolutely do whatever he wishes to do with it. Name another player last season that played for over 50 minutes in one game?! I hear were your coming from, but you should leave Rondo's time and how he's using it up to him. Its called "off season" and I think he of all people deserved one. # posted by the green goblin : 6:38 AM Yes, it's his life and he can do what he wants. But he's also getting paid millions to play for the Celtics and to bring them a championship. As such, he should make that his first priority. He can do whatever he wants, but if he doesn't come back a better player than he was last year, we as fans have a right to question how much he really wants to win a championship. But like I said in the article I don't know that he didn't work on his game and he'll come back in great shape and ready to go. If so, all this is a moot point. I just read all those accounts of Larry working all offseason to get better because of how bad he wanted to win. # posted by FLCeltsFan : 8:38 AM The guy comes back into a playoff game after dislocating his elbow and plays almost 40 minute 2 days later and you want to question how much he really wants to win a championship? He clearly wants it more than you think. # posted by Anonymous : 1:45 PM All of you are right, some more than others.Goblin-I don't read FLC's piece as on Rondo's back at all. She points out, quite validly, that he spent a lot, a whole lot, of time this summer involved in activities that did little to improve his game.Anon-I agree. Rondo, like Pierce and Garnett, are good bets to crawl out of their coffins at their own funerals to claw their way up and down the court.FLC-Larry was indeed driven to work tirelessly on his game. Considering the seven hundred and forty-nine sprained ankles, fingers, wrists, knees, and shoulders that Rondo "played through," I'm glad we haven't heard about him playing against competition--he needs healing. But I do hope he is working on that jumper. Somehow I think he is. Perhaps not endlessly like Larry did. Although I wonder if by his seventh year (can you believe Rondo has been with Boston that long?) I think Larry was pretty limited in what his body would let him do. I think Rondo's pride and privacy prevents him parading his off-season work for the media, plus he won't give the enemy the mental edge of believing that Rondo thinks he has "weaknesses." # posted by bballee : 3:03 PM As always, Lee, you are the voice of reason and you make excellent points. You can't question Rondo's toughness. And yes, he's probably been working on his game in privacy, although he's had precious little of it with how busy his schedule has been. Let's hope that when Rondo comes back he will no longer have a "weakness" :) # posted by FLCeltsFan : 3:15 PM Post a CommentThis blog does not allow anonymous comments.

This is the site I've just re-built using Sandvox, I know it's a bit 'Plain Jane' , but the purpose is to give information to people who are used to reading text and have a slightly longer attention span than average (i.e. librarians, miniature book collectors etc).
I've been checking out the other sites shown here and I suppose the width can make it look a bit 'templatey' but I like the page of handmade paper (Outside the Lines Blue) because it suits the site (handmade miniature books). I think that's the main design issue, choosing a theme that suits the subject.
My original site was built in Front Page, I changed to a mac and eventually found Sandvox, after struggling long with Dreamweaver. Sandvox is great for someone like me, who doesn't want that steep learning curve, but still wants a nice-looking functional site to showcase their work. Any comments appreciated.
These are all great sites. Congratulations: keep it up!
I especially liked dewaldenpress.com as I have many ties to book publishing.
Thanks, Admin!

Hi all,
want to see a web site in German created with Sandvox?
Here is it:http://www.regenbogen-kindergarten-buchholz.de
I switched from iWeb to Sandvox. For sure with some problems. Two big of them are still existing. Look e.g. to this page:

The font is awfull and I wasn't able to change it (even being in contact Heather Gosney from SV support). Any hint would be great.
In addition I want to create a site (like a guest book) where visitors can leave some comments. My feeling is, that that's possible with SV
but up to now I'm so silly and didn't found a solution...Enjoy a German webpage!
Hi, I made a lot of updates to the first site (regenbogen...). Now containing some add-ins from Poppydog: I created a Guestbook
(called "Comment System") and a survey. Works great. Also I solved some issues with the fonts.
Have a look!

After overcoming some fear & trepidation, and through an investment of (significant) time, I have finally converted my website to SV2. I also updated and changed my design. The result is that was able to produce a cleaner and more dynamic website using Blueball's Minimal Colors. I'm thrilled with the way it looks. I have also traveled the path many have discussed from hating the work required to make the transition to loving SV2.
I want to also thank Charlie of BB for all the help he provided in my transitioning to his SV2 with his design including giving me some code to correct some things in my file. However, I must say that I am not satisfied with Kuler. I was using their Big Time Design and bought their updated version. They made a number of changes to the design which in my eyes had diminished its attractiveness. I felt they were significant enough that I requested a refund. I believe those changes should have been disclosed to those upgrading the design. I sent an email to them through their website and have heard no response. Compare this to Charlie who responded to my requests within 24 hours. It should also be noted that Blueball provides free upgrades while Kuler does not (I did not have the Minimal colors design and had to purchase it, but it was well worth the price.)

Not bad! The site flows really well. I have one problem with that theme, the stars. It could be so much better without them or having the option to have them. Really nice site though.
Thanks for the comments, I could see where the stars might raise an aesthetic issue. Couldn't argue with the price of the template though(Stars Orange)... not to mention the ease of use of the app. Every time I see my girlfriend struggle with SiteBuilder on Homestead... whew!
And then there's my site, made with a modified version of Skyline:
Hmm, I am looking for a cms that has a GUI for editing pages but also is dinamic cand sandvox handle that?
Great things are almost always free, so who needs money? My website: jocuri barbie
I posted this as its own topic before I saw this thread... But I figured, what the heck?! So here it is again. My new cooking site.
I'm building a site with Sandvox right now that I think may be revolutionary. I'm writing a book, New Media for Designers + Builders, or NM4D+B for short. It should probably have about 500 pages of content, but nobody reads long books anymore, so I'd like to keep it to 150-200... but still have all the content. Here's what I'm doing:
The book is written in Apple's fabulous new iBooks Author, which means that I'll be able to link to things on the internet. So I'm including the things in the book that everyone should know, then I'm building a "book companion" site where I post how to do things if your setup is similar to mine. There's a blog for each chapter... the title page of each chapter blog is a detailed outline of the chapter. Below that will be the posts that describe the things that only some of the people may want to know. These posts include things like:
CSS Editor
Manipulating the Sidebar
Modifying Sandvox Designs
Setting Up a Second Domain
Setting Up Net Chiclets
Facebook Comments
Lining Up the Callouts
Making Friends with Google
Why Sandvox Collections Are So Clever
...etc. All of these have something directly to do with Sandvox, FWIW, and there will be a lot more. The idea is to be able to create a combination of book and companion website that would allow iWeb refugees like me that don't know code and don't have time to learn to be able to start from scratch with Sandvox and not have to figure out what there is to discover and then go discover it. Rather, the book and site are meant to take what was three months of learning curve for me and turn it into a week or two of work for someone else who knows no more than I did last summer.
One other thing... the chapter outlines each have Facebook comments attached (with links from each chapter of the book) with the idea that book readers could make public comments, just like blog comments. Kind of a virtual book club, I guess.
Here's the site... please check it out and let me know what you think:

I don't think it's a good idea to change the position of the menus when going to another page. Your opening page has all the menus to the left and then when navigating the menus go to the top. Website manta: Keep it simple.

David John.
Thanks for that useful information. I will check that out and put it right. It was not a deliberate design decision to put the menus where they are. I have no technical computer knowledge at all, or any idea of how to properly assemble a site, so it just sort of came out like that. - I just wanted to try Sandvox to see if I could get something online. When I get the time I will do some homework and improve things, such as the position of the menus. - At the moment, to me I am amazed how easy it was to actually get a site up and running via a host, with most of the technical stuff sorted out automatically.
Thanks for your advice.
Lots of tricks in Sandvox going on at www.worldshaman.org/betaTest
Thanks for the opportunity for everyone to show our sites. Here is a link to my site http://www.johnnyrobish.com, which is a humor/comedy website, which takes a satirical look at current events, politics and celebrities. I transferred as much as I could over from iWeb and am quite happy, but would still like to make a few modifications which I don't quite have the skill set to do as of yet.
I've done a few with Sandvox. But I'll spare you all and post just one at a time.
This one is a re-do from one I've had for quite some time now which was originally done by hand as the only HTML software around, as far as I knew, at the time I did it was HoTMetaL. I later re-did it in MicroSoft FrontPage 1.1, which I helped beta test.
In 1995, I got to beta test NetObjects Fusion, so I redid the site yet again.
And in 1998, I beta tested Macromedia's DreamWeaver and so redid it one more time.
And there it remained until I switched to a Mac in 2009 and bought my first Sandvox.
Frankly, my favorite part of the site is the (altered) picture of Albert Einstein, but the design is quite smooth for a Sandvox novice. :-)

And that has made all the difference.
(No. Really!)
Here is my first one.. http://www.tscross.com/
I take great pleasure in finding answers to questions posed by users of this forum and have learned a great deal about Sandvox in doing so.
I have put together a few musings relating to Sandvox at http://davidneale.eu/sandvox/index.html
There I pretend to offer solutions to some of the problems faced when constructing a site with Sandvox. Items include use of columns, anchor tags, popup windows, including tables (real tables, that is…), and more.
It says "Avenger," but I am just a Sandvox user who has been assigned the title of Avenger here in order to be able to delete spam messages. http://davidneale.eu/
Here's what I just built and published w/ Sandvox... comments welcome/appreciated!
I'm new to Sandvox and to technology. My ignorance astounds me. I just tried to post a reply, but when I add my site, I get a message that I'm not allowed to post links, though it seems that everyone else has. Maybe I need to change something on my profile? Buh.

This goal was terrible. After I had it for a couple of weeks the net started to tear. Also about 1 out of 5 shots that I take go right through the net. The steel is also very weak, The goal keeps falling over each time the goalie falls back. If you're smart you'll pay the extra twenty bucks and get a nice durable goal.

Minneapolis law firm Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben celebrates Bill Sieben named Best Lawyers' 2013 Minneapolis Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs "Lawyer of the Year".
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) October 08, 2012
Minneapolis law firm Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben has something to celebrate: their own Bill Sieben has been named Best Lawyers' 2013 Minneapolis Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs "Lawyer of the Year".
Given what the criteria are for nominees, it truly is an honor to be considered for the designation. This award is based on assessments conducted by peers in the same practice area and the same community as the attorneys being considered. An attorney's professionalism, integrity and abilities are taken into consideration by those who work with and against them. Only one attorney in each practice area is selected for the designation.
This is not the first peer-review honor Sieben has received. Among other honors, he is included in the Minnesota Lawyers Hall of Fame, is a member of the International Society of Barristers, and has earned "Minnesota Super Lawyer" status by Super Lawyers magazine since the award began. Sieben's recognition comes not only because of his high level of knowledge and experience but also because he works with various community organizations promoting leadership and self-awareness.
Sieben is a sixth-generation attorney from a Minnesota family that spent over a hundred years involved in law and politics. He is the personal injury attorney Minneapolis residents have trusted for thirty-five years, and he has been helping the residents of Minnesota through the law firm of Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben for over thirty years.
The attorneys at Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben work hard for their clients so their clients can concentrate on healing. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed because of someone else's negligence, contact the lawyers at (612) 377-7777 or toll free at (800) 752-4265 for a free consultation.

text: Cleary Gottlieb is representing First Reserve Corporation, one of the leading private equity firms specializing in the energy sector, in its acquisition of 45% of Ansaldo Energia, Italy's leader in the production and servicing of thermoelectric power plants and related components, from Finmeccanica, a state-controlled company operating in the aerospace, defense, transport and energy industries. The transaction values Ansaldo Energia at more than €1.2 billion. The agreement was signed on March 9, and the transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2011 pending regulatory approvals. The parties will complete the transaction through the purchase by a joint venture entity 55% owned by Finmeccanica and 45% owned by First Reserve, of the entire share capital of Ansaldo Energia for a consideration of €1.073 billion. In addition, Finmeccanica will receive €95 million as consideration for the licensing of the "Ansaldo" trademark and €65 million as a dividend distribution. The acquisition will be financed by equity contributions from the parties, in an overall amount of €500 million, as well as acquisition financing comprising a vendor loan and a debt facility arranged by three leading European banks.

Get It Right (with bonus tracks)
CD (Item 609638) Arista/Big Break (UK), 1983 — Condition: New Copy
A real standout from Aretha Franklin's years on Arista – a set produced by Luther Vandross, with a soaring groove that really opens Aretha up nicely! Luther's more in the mode here of his 70s club productions than his 80s hits – that warm, midtempo vibe that's full of lush moments, but never in ways that are cloyingly commercial. Franklin's vocals light up the tunes in the way that Luther's own might do – really soaring out beautifully in this setting. Titles include "I Got Your Love", "Giving In", "Get It Right", "Pretender", "Every Girl", "I Wish It Would Rain", and "Better Friends Than Lovers". CD features bonus tracks "Get It Right (single)", "Get It Right (12" inst)", and "Every Girl Wants My Guy (single)". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

I dinged the tail on my Rapid Fire Alternator, and want to make sure I've completely dried it out before I get it fixed.
There's no more than 1 square centimeter of foam exposed, but it's been producing drops of water for about 5 days now. I've had the board balanced on the back fin so the ding is a low down as possible, and I'm running a dehumidifier in the room. Today is the first day I've not felt a drop of water - does this mean it's dry? Will it be ok to repair it now?

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: A long time Asics wearer, I haven't been too keen on Asics shoes over the past few years (Landreth, SpeedStar, DS Trainer, Cumulus). I even switched to Newton shoes for the past two years. After reading a glowing review of this shoe in a prominent sport magazine, I decided to give them a try. After first trying them on, I almost sent them back. They have a truss system that places some pressure on your mid-foot, just in front of your heel towards the middle and outside of your foot. I found this annoying when walking around the house to test them out. I am SO glad I didn't send them back. Decided to take them for a run and they were perfect! A ton of cushioning for such a lightweight trainer, but not so much that they feel sloppy; they are still very responsive and they felt absolutely heavenly on my run. Did a 9 mile run a few days ago and still they performed flawlessly. Well done Asics!

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: Power walk and jogging on sidewalk and pavement. The minute you put this shoe on you go ahhhhh. I wanted to try a shoe that will transition me to a minimalist type of shoe, This Is It. I felt no discomfort anywhere as feared. I love this shoe. oh and it goes great with jeans

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: After wearing every version (multiple pairs of each) of the Asics Landreth, I was in search of a new shoe after it was discontinued this year. The rep from Asics told me the Excel 2.0 is appropriate replacement for the Landreth. I tried both the Excel and Cumulus but prefer the Cumulus. It is a bit heavier than the Excel, but it about the same weight as the Landreth. I have done two run in the Cumulus a 7 mile and 10k race. No foot or leg issues either time. I ordered the Cumulus in my regular Landreth size.

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: I run 30-40 miles a week. I usually break shoes in, before wearing to a race, but I had no choice. I wore these right out of the box to run the Hollywood Half Marathon, and they performed well. No breaking period required for these shoes. It's light weight and has the perfect amount of cushioning with the flexibility I need for a quick toe off. Im looking to buying another pair. I highly recommend these. Best pair of shoes yet!

Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: Love these shoes. Went in to road runner to get a different pair but after talking to the sales women I went with the Asics Gel. Im so glad I did. My first run out with them I took 3 minutes off my 5k run. The next day did 6 miles with them no problem. There was no breaking in period which I loved. I would recommend these to everyone
Cons Best Uses
Comments about Womens ASICS GEL-Excel33 2 Running Shoe: The first day I put these on my toes were thanking me. Although I bought the same size as I always have and still purchased Asics like always, I got these after doing a custom-fitting and having them recommended to me. My toes that sometimes go numb from what must be distance running in improper shoes felt AMAZING after these shoes. I didn't feel as though my feet were swelling and I was able to run farther than normal with ease. Although they are a little bit more expensive that I would normally spend on a pair of shoes, I decided quickly that it's well worth it and will buy this pair time and time again. As for the color, at first I did NOT like the gray color but it was all they had. After a week of wearing them, I have changed my mind and am in love with the little white/blue that pops with jeans. SO CUTE!

NYS now has the second highest paid Legislators in the USA they want to be #1 in pay again even though the NYS is broke. They are waiting until after their re-election in the hope the voters will forget in two years when they run again.

Mandate Relief will help reduce local taxes
S5889C/ A08644A -2011 Medicaid mandate relief will initially freezes local Medicaid costs, providing $180 million in immediate local savings statewide. The Senate Actions Jan 24, 2012: REPORTED AND COMMITTED TO FINANCE Assembly 01/20/2012 amend and recommit to health 01/20/2012 print number 8644a The proposal will eliminate the automatic three percent annual spending increases currently required by statute. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2012, the local share would then be reduced by five percent, providing counties with an additional $75 million — totaling $255 million in savings for county governments. Between 2013 and 2019, local Medicaid costs will continue to be gradually reduced as the state assumes an increasing share of the burden. The end result would completely eliminate Medicaid costs from county budgets, providing municipal governments with the flexibility to substantially reduce local property taxes. Sponsors NYS Senator Sponsor: Patrick Gallivan (R Erie), David Carlucci (D-Rockland/Orange) and Assembly members Amy Paulin Scarsdale, Ellen Jaffee Pearl River, Kenneth Zebrowski New City PLEASE E-MAIL YOUR NYS SENATOR AND ASSEMBLY member & ask them to become a CO-SPONSOR.
A9099-2011: Relates to providing local governments greater contract flexibility and cost savings Sponsor: Paulin Scarsdale
***Passed** Tier VI Pension Reform takes effect April, 1 2012 in addition to raising the state retirement age to 63 for new employees. It increases the amount deducted from their pay from the current 3% to up to 6% for higher earners which reduces the amount local governments must pay for current pensions. This could provide a little tax relief if local governments choose to pass the savings on taxpayers.
**Passed** the 2012-13 NYS Budget now that it is adopted we will finally find out what is in it and how it will effect local taxes.

A5039 GENDA (Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act -Allows men to use ladies rooms!) You remember, this bill is the one referred to as the "Bathroom Bill", because theoretically, if at the moment a man feels like a woman he will have the right to use the public women's restroom. In the liberal's touchy-feely heart it is meant to stop discrimination against cross dressers and gender confused people.
***Information*** There is no bill for this but one is needed. Route 9 & the Northway are nearing their designed max traffic capacity especially at rush hours. The current proposal is to widen the Northway to eight lanes which cost several billion. A much less expensive solution is a Commuter rail over the existing tracks between from south of Albany to Saratoga and/or a new bridge between the Northway's twin bridges and the Rexford bridge'
***Information*** The Assembly and the NYS Senate linked NYC Rent control extension to the Upstate & Long Island 2 percent Property tax cap and them to combined them into one bill.

(note pension costs and court judgments are not included in the cap) Both parts have a four year sunset clause. School districts must hold a election to override the cap. City, Towns, Villages & Counties only must hold a public hearing in November/December and get 6/10 vote of their town board, city council, County legislative body, or board of supervisors.
