I'm trying to run Windows 3x under MS-DOS 7.10 which was patched with W3xstart (windows 98) with support for NTFS drives (NTFS4DOS), but when I load NTFS4DOS, windows cannot be loaded in 386 enhanced mode, only in standard mode, but Win32s doesn't work in standard mode, so the problem is NTFS4DOS cause it loads another IO.SYS and therefore windows cannot be loaded ....
In standard mode, Windows 3x recognize NTFS drives and works with them, but that's no good if I can not run in 386 enhanced mode.
Sorry for my English, I used the translator and corrected some mistakes.
I speak Spanish.
the ntfs4dos driver may use protected mode in the background and continue to run dos in what is known as v86 mode. does the windows 3.1 error message say anything about not being able to enter protected mode because a program is already using it? if is is you will have to use a different ntfs driver that doesn't use protected (32bit) mode. I am not sure if ntfs (being a 32bit filesystem) needs 32bit disk access or not. this factor may limit your choices to much less possibilities.
There's a newer version of Calmira that can access NTFS. Google Calmira.net.
Are you sure? Are you confused it with LFN?

CHC to provide three helicopters for Shell's Prelude FLNG project
CHC Helicopter, a provider of offshore helicopters for offshore oil and gas industry, will provide three additional aircraft for Shell's Prelude FLNG project.
CHC Group said on Thursday that three new Sikorsky S-92 aircraft will be serving Shell's Prelude floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) project from its base in Broome, Australia.
According to CHC, these new aircraft will join a fourth S-92 already in use as part of a two-year extension of the current Shell contract in place since mid-2012.
The Shell Prelude FLNG facility measures 488 meters from bow to stern and will weigh around 600,000 tons when fully loaded. It will contain 260,000 tons of steel, and its deck area will be longer than four football fields.
Currently under construction in South Korea, once delivered, the facility will be towed to its location, some 475 kilometers north-east of Broome to the namesake gas field. It will then be moored and connected to the undersea infrastructure and the whole production system commissioned.
Karl Fessenden, President and Chief Executive Officer of CHC Helicopter, said: "Shell has been a long-time customer of ours as we provide critical transportation services in support of their efforts in the region, so we are excited to expand and extend this contract through at least May 2019."

MEXICO CITY — "I was there when the shots were fired, a few meters away," Kenya said. "Paola called for help and I came running."
Until that moment, Paola was full of life, said Kenya. But that life hadn't been easy. She was born biologically male in the southern state of Campeche, near the Guatemalan border, just over 25 years ago. She and Kenya, both transgender sex workers, had chosen new names for themselves when they committed to their new identities, and they had shared the same busy street in Mexico City most nights for the past six years—working together while working alone.
That is, until last Thursday night, when Paola's life was cut short by a john with a 9mm Beretta, and an unknown bone to pick.
"About 10 of us work that corner," said Kenya, referring to the spot where busy Insurgentes Boulevard meets Puente de Alvarado, a few blocks from the bustling Revolución metro station. But shots rang out that night, and Kenya ran over to the car she'd seen Paola climb into minutes before, for the promise of 200 pesos—roughly, $10, cash—Paola lay in the passenger seat, barely clinging to life.
One bullet went through her neck, another through her chest and lung, and a hole showed where it had exited her body, penetrating the roof of the car driven by Arturo Felipe Delgadillo Olvera—the man who most everyone but a Mexico City judge believes killed her.
"He was holding the gun in his right hand, sitting in the driver's seat, and Paola had collapsed in the passenger's seat," Kenya told The Daily Beast this Thursday. "He pointed it at me, and would have shot me, too, but the gun was jammed."
Kenya flagged down a passing patrol car, as she was joined by a few other ladies who work the corner. "We told the police to get out with their pistols. They opened the car door and pulled [Delgadillo] out. He set the gun on the floor, and the cops knocked him down," Kenya said. "That's when I started filming."
The videos Kenya recorded that night prove a series of frustrating points about Mexico. Here, you can be guilty of a crime beyond reasonable doubt, and get away with it. Or you can be an innocent victim, yet still be treated like a criminal. In this case, both hold true.
The videos show a frantic Kenya begging for doctors and screaming that Delgadillo is a murderer.
Kenya walks over to the patrol car, whose back windshield has just been smashed in. The police are calm and have the suspect surrounded and in handcuffs. "He's the one," Kenya insists—"Do you feel like a badass, puto?"
"I didn't do it," Delgadillo says casually, half-smiling in a blood-soaked blue button-down shirt.
About 10 minutes after the whole ordeal began an ambulance finally arrives. The first responders inspect Paola's body inside the car. They take a step back, in no hurry to move her remains—"She's dead, isn't she?" Kenya asks. Her voice sounds defeated. "She's dead."
And that is the end of the video. But as horrific as the whole scene was, at that moment the witnesses believed there would at least be justice. They had apprehended Paola's killer—caught him, literally, with blood on his hands.
Three transgender sex workers and the first two cops on the scene all testified that Delgadillo was sitting in the car, holding the gun. Kenya testified that she saw everything but the exact moment when the trigger was pulled—in the seconds between the victim calling for help, and the moment when Kenya saw Delgadillo pull Paola's limp body off him before the former military officer-turned-private security pointed his pistol at Kenya.
But this, let's say, "smoking gun moment," and the testimony of a half-dozen eyewitnesses, was "insufficient evidence" for the judge, who swiftly ordered Delgadillo's release on Sunday.
"In court, they brought out a clean grey T-shirt, as evidence of his innocence," Kenya told me. "But that wasn't the shirt he was wearing—not the long-sleeve shirt in the video that was covered in her blood. Where's his shirt? The prosecutor should have it, but it hasn't made an appearance."
That wasn't the only irregularity reported during last Sunday's pre-trial hearing, meant to determine if the suspect would be further investigated or fully absolved. "How could he have been holding the murder weapon when the police and me and the other girls saw him, but the city's official experts now say that his hands were clean, and tested negative for gunpowder residue? It isn't right.
"She didn't shoot herself—twice," Kenya said, incredulous. "And it wasn't her gun. So, what is this? If not him, then who, and how?"
Kenya, who is now mourning the death of her friend and colleague, said the prosecutor tasked with defending Paola wasn't prepared to argue the case, and that his bias led the tone of the hearing, further discriminating against the victim—the prosecutor referred to Paola as "him" and "he" throughout the brief hearing. The prosecutor also offered the deceased sex worker's blood-alcohol levels into evidence, irrelevant as that may seem under the circumstances, and thus weakened the prosecutor's argument against Delgadillo.
"If she had been drinking does that make her murder less criminal?" Kenya asked.
The pre-trial was quickly over, and so was the promise of justice.
"The police didn't help us. They went and freed her killer," Kenya recounted. "So I went and begged them, demanded that they give me my friend back, and release her body to me," Kenya told us.
"I said that if her family wouldn't help her then that's too bad, but I would, I said, and told them: 'Give me her body. Now.'"
The sex workers who shared the street with Paola had managed to track down her family online, and offered to pay to fly her mother out and back so she could claim the corpse, using money that dozens of local sex workers had managed to pool together since the murder.
But Paola's mother, with whom she'd broken ties a decade earlier, did not come. No one who knew her then, as a boy, came.
"Her mother sounded distant, and said she would need money, which we promised to give her, but after that she started making excuses," Kenya said. "There were no tears, no regrets, and in the end it seemed like she just didn't care."
A large percentage of Mexico's transgender population ends up working the streets. There are no official statistics, but defense organizations have estimated as many as 80 to 90 percent in cities throughout Mexico take to sex work, and as much as 40 percent of Mexico's homeless population is LGBTQI.
Rejected by their families, and ostracized by society, their bodies are often their only way to make enough money to survive. Expensive hormone therapy and plastic surgery are seen as necessary work investments for many, despite the cost, which further cements their role outside of conventional society in Mexico.
"Paola's family never accepted her—like most of our families will never accept us—so in the end we just left them alone," Kenya said. "When we first transition, we have to confront our own feelings, and then our families are angry and disappointed with us, and then society is, too. So, we end up becoming each other's family, and are the only ones who can stand up for each other and ourselves."
Kenya said the only way to retrieve Paola's body was with threats. "I said that there were 500 girls waiting for her corpse, and that if I came back empty-handed we'd take over the streets and block traffic until they gave her back."
That worked.
But a few dozen women, many of whom are not legally considered women in Mexico, were so upset by the situation that they went ahead and blocked the street anyway. They took Paola's coffin down to Insurgentes on Tuesday, back near the spot where she was murdered, and set it down in the middle of the busy street, blocking traffic with her open casket, and screaming for justice.
"We were sad and furious, so we did the only thing we could think to do. In this case, I was the only family she had. No one was going to remember her the next day, or care, or make the authorities do their job," Kenya said. So Paola's colleagues made a pit stop on the way to the funeral home, and the guests all got together—a handful of drag queens, cis-gender and trans sex workers, a few human rights observers, and LGBTQI activists—and they made a scene out on the road, demanding justicia for Paola.
By the time the improvised protest ended, Paola's corpse was late for her wake, which the girls all pitched in to cover, so they paid for an extra day at the funeral home. But Kenya and the other sex workers said this was the only thing they could think to do to make someone—anyone—notice that the authorities had not done their job.
Because of their outrage, Paola has a name, and now has a final resting place, unlike the hundreds of numbered Jane Does who have lain unclaimed at morgues across Mexico, before making their way into common, unmarked graves.
Mexico now falls just behind Brazil as the murder capital of transgender women, and across the country unchecked femicide has reached epidemic proportions. Seven women are murdered across Mexico every day. Thousands more are beaten or raped day after day, week after week, year after year. Many of these crimes are never reported—the so-called dark figure is staggering. But often there's a reason to not report the incidents. In Mexico, 99 percent of crimes go unpunished, and gender-based violence is the epitome of this rule, not an exception.
Worse, there have been hundreds of cases of women going to police as victims, and leaving as criminals.
One example is the case of Yakiri Rubio, who was thrown in a Mexico City prison for three months at the age of 19, after inadvertently killing a man as he beat and raped her in 2013. She stabbed him more than a dozen times, before the man twice her size finally died. But when she went to the police for help—beaten, raped, and covered in his and her own blood—the authorities called her actions "excessive" and labeled her a murderer. Yakiri is a hero in my eyes, and has become a good friend of mine, and a role model for women across Mexico who understand that sometimes the only justice to be had is at their own hands. She took on her rapist, and then took on the city government, and beat them both.
Paola is just one face of a larger statistic in Mexico, but this number now at least has a name thanks to her colleagues' fight for justice.
"There's no security for us whatsoever," Kenya said. "There are pros and cons to having the authorities around. On the one hand, police presence sometimes gives us the semblance of protection, but on the other hand, they treat us like criminals, and when we need them they really aren't there to help."
The group of sex workers have appealed the judge's decision to free Delgadillo, and have demanded a new hearing and a meeting with Mexico City's chief prosecutor Rodolfo Ríos. But if their demands aren't addressed—they'll know at some point after Monday—the women know that they have zero legal recourse.
"If they deny our appeal, we're shutting down the airport," says one of the ladies, to general agreement. "And then we're going to call the trans community out across Mexico, to march in their cities and demand justice for Paola. This isn't right, and it won't stand."
The local government does its best work when under the thumb of social pressure. It is unknown if they will win the appeal, and hopes aren't very high, but their wish is that the government can be intimidated into doing its job.
If nothing else, then perhaps the authorities will do it for the satisfaction of patting themselves on the back, which often seems to be their motivation.
On Monday, for example, the day after freeing Paola's presumed killer, the Mexico City Attorney General's Office (PGJDF) announced that it "rescued 51 women, victims of sexual exploitation," and brought seven men into custody, including the man who owned the two bars where the women worked, which were seized by Mexico City authorities, in the same Mexico City district where Paola was killed.
"The victims were lured in by the businessmen to work as erotic dancers, but were subsequently forced to remove all of their clothing, until ending up completely nude," reads a statement from the attorney general's office, which seems to be nothing but a reframing of a stripper's job description.
The statement doesn't mention exactly what egregious abuse the women were being "rescued" from—none of the details that usually follow cases of white slavery, sex trafficking, or mass violations of women's human rights. They were seemingly not held against their will, not beaten, did not have their children held hostage, or any of the other sordid realities that women across Mexico face far too often in this line of work.
Last year, during the 18th national meeting of the Mexican Network of Sex Workers, exotic dancer "Rosalía" told a story that seems to follow the same pattern. Authorities raided the club where she worked in Mexico State, demanding that she and her fellow dancers sign declarations in which she accepts that she is a "victim of sex trafficking," or face being accused herself of running a sex trafficking operation.
"We won't sign—not as victims, nor victimizers," she told reporters during the conference. The woman then complained that soldiers and narcos come into the clubs and bars at all hours, pick women out, and demand they have sex with them for free. "We want them to stop killing us, and stop raping us," she said. "The authorities and narcos have us between a sword and a wall, and all we want is for them to let us do our jobs."
The Mexican Network of Sex Workers, a national network of organizations and individuals defending sex workers' rights, insists: "Sex work is not the same as human trafficking."
One is a choice, the other an obligation. That's it.
The Street Brigade in Support of Women, a nonprofit made up of cis and trans sex workers, and human trafficking victims and survivors in Mexico, insists that the two concepts are completely different: "Sex workers know that this isn't a fine line, the difference is clear, but sometimes, authorities looking for a cut make it seem like this isn't the case."
Mexico has a long-standing legal history with prostitution. The oldest profession has floated in and out of various forms of regulation since first being formally accepted as a trade in the 16th century. For the last 20 years, the Street Brigade has fought for its members to be granted the right to do their job in peace and in safety, in a regulated and legal setting.
Two years ago, Mexico City's sex workers won that right, when the city decriminalized prostitution, and began issuing credentials for the job, which allows them as independent contractors to unionize, and also provide a safer experience for themselves, and their customers, thanks to the implementation of health programs that include obligatory medical screenings and free condoms. In the past, sex workers had been unable to seek help from authorities for fear of being criminalized themselves for their line of work.
That still happens, of course, but legally it is not supposed to.
Other Mexican cities, however, have—for better or for worse—tried to embrace their sordid reputations for sex work, even going so far as to propose profiting off the sex trade—like a big, sleazy government pimp.
In the border city of Tijuana, the difference between sex trafficking and voluntary prostitution is often hard to untangle. It's a city rife with human trafficking, underage prostitution, rampant gender-based violence and abuse, and held firmly in the clutches of organized crime.
Despite this, last year the head of the city's tourism committee, COTUCO, spoke publicly about an ambitious campaign to rebrand the city's prostitution zone, North America's largest red-light district, as Tijuana Coqueta—Spanish for Coquettish Tijuana.
After an outpouring of rejection by residents soon after the plan was announced, government officials were forced to backtrack in a hurry, distancing themselves from the campaign which sought to flaunt the city as a sex tourism destination for men on "the opposite side of the border, initially, then across the rest of the country," said Miguel Angel Badiola, the former head of COTUCO.
"We should start at home first," he suggested with a creepy grin, after proposing the plan to increase foreign sex tourism to Tijuana.
Tijuana tolerates and locally embraces its sex trade, which has a history as dated as the city itself, but did not care to promote itself further for what it knows is one of its most problematic and least appealing traits.
On Thursday, I took a trip downtown, past an underground bar selling $1 pre-rolled joints, and a man frying chicken necks in stale grease, which he drains on a counter covered in rows of oysters of dubious quality and age. Even the smell of bad weed and liquid floor cleaner wafting up from the stairwell of the Zacazonapan bar cannot obscure the indescribable melee of odors that converge in the Zona Norte, which runs along the San Diego border fence.
A left turn past Kentucky Fried Buches takes you down Coahuila Street, the city's official "tolerance zone" or red-light district. It's all lights, and palm trees, and clashing music. A mariachi band plays traditional ballads for locals and lonely gringos eating tacos on the corner with their dates for the evening. The streets on Thursday night, as usual, reek of desperation.
This is Tijuana, or as Krusty the Clown calls it, "the happiest place on earth."
But not everyone is happy to be here. Walking past the little Christian church that shares a wall with the eight-story-high Hong Kong—the city's (and perhaps the country's) most debauched strip-club-slash-brothel—I meet "Monica," a 37-year-old mother of four.
She hasn't seen her children in nearly a year, but, as often as she can, she still sends them money that she earns walking the streets.
Most girls and women in the tolerance zone are referred to as paraditas—or, women who stand. Sometimes they stand in the same spot for hours on one high-heeled leg, with the other raised against the wall, so people then call them "the flamingos."
Monica, however, walks seven nights a week, up and down the same street, but she never dares stand. She is one of the few around here who can't stand.
"Todas pagan piso," she tells me—everyone pays a fee for the space they stand on, usually about 700 pesos a night, or roughly $35.
The ficheras at the bars and clubs make a cut from every overpriced beer they can convince the customers to buy them until they hit their nightly quota, which is about 10 beers, Monica explains, adding that this is one of the reasons she prefers to go it alone.
But frankly, she's the worse for wear without the protection offered by bar owners. A bulging black eye is covered poorly with concealer, and her skin is covered in sores that at first glance seem to be infected track marks, but I soon learn are not.
"My boyfriend locked me in my room for 11 hours, beating me in and out of consciousness," she explained, adding that he works the area as a male prostitute, but is not her pimp. It's hard to see the difference though, because she gives him half her money anyway. She insists it's because he's her best friend, whom she'd be alone and lost without.
"He was burning me with cigarettes all night, but that may have been a good thing, because it would shock me back awake. But now I've been picking at the scabs when I get stressed out or desperate," she said. "He's beaten me like that more times than I can count, but he's the sweetest man I've ever known when he wants to be."
She's been on the street for almost three years, since she lost her waitressing job at a local salsa bar, and then her husband left her, taking her kids with him. Looking at the pictures she showed me from the weeks before she lost her job, it's hard to tell I'm looking at the same person. In the pictures from 2013, she is smiling, and has full cheeks, and a clear complexion.
Now, she's covered in scabs, bruises, cuts, and has dry blood along the bottom of her hairline.
She hates her job, and doesn't find it the least bit empowering. She stopped seeing her children because she is embarrassed about the scabs, and what has happened to her face.
"What if they see me like this, and then reject me forever?" she wonders. "My kids don't go to school anymore. I want a better life for them, but all I can do is work, and give the money to my sister, who I'm forever grateful to, and ask her to take it to them."
On a good day she can make at much as 7000 pesos, or $350, but on a bad day she makes nothing. She doesn't like her clients, and hates the way pimps trick young girls into falling in love with them or with the seemingly fun parts of the lifestyle—the drugs, the dancing. She hates how the pimps then turn on the girls, once they have them hooked, and beat them, use them, have kids with them, and then use the children as bait, Monica explained.
She tells me horrible stories, about underage prostitutes—"14- or 15-year-old girls and boys"—sex workers murdered in their hotel rooms, and a shootout she saw in recent days near the Hong Kong brothel, in which several people, including two police officers, were shot with what she said was an automatic rifle. Hong Kong is itself its own beast, and no stranger to violence, both cartel-related and psycho-sexual. It's a multi-tiered microcosm, where well-protected strippers perform unholy acts on each other, and lap dancers make visitors feel extra special for the right price. When I first walked in, years ago, the performance that unfolded was something that cannot ever be unseen—think Jennifer Connelly's final scene in Requiem For a Dream, but with copious of whipped cream. It's like Disneyland on crack, yet way more repulsive. But don't take my word for it… one visitor from California posted his five-star review online last week: "Yo this place is fucking lit, turn up till the sun comes up and mess around with the girls till my heart's about to stop from smashing so hard."
But that, of course, is not really Monica's scene.
Business hasn't been great these past weeks, she explained, pointing to the bruises on her face.
She said two prostitutes who do pay their dues tried to kill her three weeks ago, after following her into her room. They strangled her with the chain she wears around her neck, where she usually keeps the key to whatever room she's staying in to avoid losing it. She normally finds a place to sleep for about $10 a night, but on Thursday evening the chain had no key on it.
She said the two women beat her with their fists, and kicked the back of her head open with a stiletto heel, at the behest of their employer.
"Are we done?" the two women asked before leaving her room. "We're done," she answered.
"I was brave about it though," she said. "I even walked past them the other day, with one eye swollen shut. I thought, I hope they don't hit me in the other eye, for trying to act tough."
She used to live in an apartment, but her boyfriend sold everything and spent the rent money on meth. "He even sold my underwear and heels, and that was very disrespectful, because I needed them to work, to pay for us, and food, and send money to my children."
After that, the woman who rented the small room to her kicked her out, "because she said she didn't want any trouble."
So Monica has seen better times in recent years, but barely.
"I usually find the drunkest man I can find, and then take him out dancing to wear him out. And then he buys me drinks, and I go somewhere with him," she said. "But I always take my time. I get to his room, and go into the bathroom. I lock the door, and take a shower, and usually by the time I come out they have passed out.
"It doesn't always work out that way," she said. "But when it does, I have a good night. Because I invite myself to whatever is in their wallet, or every once in awhile, if they take me to their house, and fall asleep, then I take whatever they have lying around.
"Once I went to a man's house with nothing in my purse, and left with three of his suitcases packed with stuff—the Playstation, phones, a computer, money, perfumes, sneakers, whatever I could carry," she said.
As I applauded her for her entrepreneurial spirit, an older woman in chunky heels sat nearby on the ground, surrounded by cops who pulled a small balloon filled with crystal meth out of the back pocket of her mini-skirt. Here, globitos, as they are known, cost 50 pesos, or about $2.50. They can be bought on any street corner in the zona, and each corner is repping for its drug gang—the same goes for many of the local establishments. Whether it's the authorities or the cartels, everyone gets a cut of the cash that flows in as freely as the cheap beer everyone's drinking.
A few paces away, a young man removes the wedge shoe of a woman twice his age, and injects something (heroin, if she's lucky) into her left foot, lit by the oblivious police officers' red and blue patrol car lights.
Monica and I sit outside a local bar—I have a beer, she has a hamburger—and a completely demolished, filthy American man walked up to us, mumbling something about french fries. Monica rips a piece of her burger off with her hands and gives it to the man on a napkin, as he twitches with excitement.
These are desperate, depressing streets.
"You've got to be nice to everyone," Monica said, wisely. "I make friends with local vendors, the shoe-shine men, the parking lot operators, because they are the ones who send me customers when they see drunk men walking by. They also seem to get me out of trouble, so you never know who can count on. A shoe-shine man that I give finder's fees to let me share his room the last time my boyfriend beat me up. I bought him a globito of crystal as payment, but he didn't ask me to, I just felt like helping."
She said the shoe-shine man has become "like a father" to her.
"There are good people everywhere, if you are good to them," she said. "Except for the pigs—never trust anyone with a badge. The police have taken me at least 15 times this year, and locked me in a cell for the day, and it's awful because everyone around you is coming down from something. You see them beating their heads against the wall until they bleed, because they can't stand the malilla." In other words, everyone's looking for a fix, but in jail there's no fix to be had.
"I treat myself to an AIDS test every four months," she said. "They are free, and so are the condoms, but usually I just try not to have sex if I can help it."
Along the Zona Norte there are hundreds of girls and women working with the bars and brothels. Very few women dare to try their hand at going solo, and speaking to Monica it's clear why. Those standing in front of brothels, under the protection of the bosses, don't have visible wounds, they are laughing and drinking, and flirting with passersby in clean but revealing clothing.
Monica has nowhere to sleep, or take a shower, or heal her scabs. Sure, a pimp isn't taking a cut of her income, but she isn't really making one these days either. She is completely alone, and avoids the other prostitutes, walking up and down the street. She has no union, and her friends won't be there to demand justice for her the way Kenya and company have for Paola. Her kids won't find her when she's gone. Her boyfriend will find someone else to leech off.
The only way to make it as a sex worker in this city is to pay your dues, and stand in someone's doorway.
Meanwhile in Mexico City, Paola's body was put to rest this week, surrounded by transgender women who have no shame in their work, and take pride in being their own bosses, yet continue to fight for respect, and the right to live free from violence.
"I love you, beautiful baby," Kenya told Paola at the wake. The women sang around her casket, dancing as they recite lyrics to a classic song by Antonio Aguilar, backed by a small mariachi band.
"The day that I die, I'll take nothing with me—nothing more than a fistful of dirt," they sing.
"Life ends quickly. What happened in this world is just a memory."

9154 What is the major task of the American people 20180125
Leechard says:
It was said that they had changed the aim of fighting terrorists to fighting China and Russia.
Thinkers and intellectuals may not agree on the subject. The major aim of a country is not necessary to create an enemy and start fighting them. There are more important things to do. However, the new policy had been declared and we would like to see what will happen in the coming future.
Will there be a new cold war, or even a hot war?
It is very likely. But the point is not here.
The point is: Will the Chinese be stimulated and grow stronger in the war shadow?
Stimulation is a very important factor for growth.
If you erect a long post near a tree, the tree will grow automatically higher. The post is a good stimulation. If the Americans post a threat towards the Chinese and Russian, certainly they will have a stronger spirit to fight back for a living. Now the American is pushing the Chinese and Russia to get together. There will be two camps in the world, like the old days.
Who will be the final winner? Or loser?
Unless the Americans have such a gut to beat China and Russia hard and make them lie down and lose power to fight back and even ruined, otherwise the loser will be the American people.
That means, if you are to fight, you will have to fight it for real, if you are just take fighting as a gesture, it is completely meaningless.
That is why we cannot believe Mr. Trump is for real.

The Jakarta Post
The coalition of the Gerindra Party, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) and the National Mandate Party (PAN) is considering to endorse the daughter of late former president Abdurrahman Wahid, Zannuba Ariffah Chafsoh Rahman Wahid, known as Yenny, as a governor candidate in the 2018 East Java gubernatorial election.
Gerindra deputy chairman Ferry Juliantono confirmed Wednesday that the party was considering to back Yenny in the race for the top post of the country's second most populous province.
"There is a possibility that we will go in that direction," he told The Jakarta Post.
PKS deputy secretary-general Mardani also admitted that Yenny was among the names to be a potential candidate.
"Yenny is among the names appearing in our discussions. We want an alternative figure who has the potential to win," he said.
If the coalition supports Yenny, she will likely be a rival of the pair Khofifah Indar Parawansa-Emil Dardak, endorsed by the Golkar Party, the Democratic Party, the NasDem Party and United Development Party (PPP), and the pair Saifullah "Gus Ipul" Yusuf-Abdullah Azwar Anas, backed by the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) and the National Awakening Party (PKB).
Yenny, Saifullah and Khofifah all have affiliations with the country's biggest Muslim organization Nahdlatul Ulama, which has a stronghold in East Java.
Mardani claimed that the coalition aimed to challenge President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo in the 2019 presidential election with their choice.
"We all know that both Gus Ipul and Khofifah have big potential to support Jokowi in 2019, while we [PKS and Gerindra] want to challenge the incumbent in the presidential election. Victory in the East Java election is part of the scenario for the presidential contest," Mardani said. (kmt)

The glycotoxins deregulate the skin's natural systems responsible for the repair and protection processes that occur during sleep, consequently, this deregulation contributes to impaired cell function, tissue disruption and damaged microvessels.

John Hurt returns as the War Doctor in new and exclusive Doctor Who clip
Listen to an extract from new War Doctor audio drama Only the Monstrous
Exactly two years after John Hurt stole the Doctor Who 50th anniversary show, we have the very first clip of his return as the War Doctor.
Hurt is coming back to Who for a series of 12 all-new episodes from audio drama producers Big Finish. The first box set, Only the Monstrous, is set to be released this December.
This exclusive clip comes from the first episode of the new run, titled The Innocent, which finds the War Doctor in the midst of the Time War, before the events of 50th anniversary episode The Day of the Doctor.
"I've seen too much of this war already," Hurt's weary voice says in the clip – although by the sound of it, he has plenty of tricks (OK, explosives) up his sleeve to help him in the Time Lords' battle against the Daleks.
And for all the fighting, the War Doctor clearly still has a touch of humanity, saving two "patsies" from approaching Daleks.
Hurt's character has not been seen since the episode marking the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, where the War Doctor (or 'Captain Grumpy', whichever you prefer), appeared alongside Matt Smith and David Tennant's Doctors.
The new audio dramas are written and directed by Nicholas Briggs, who says he couldn't wait to explore Who's 50th anniversary back story in more detail.
"The story of the Doctor who refuses to call himself the Doctor in order to do the unthinkable upon the ultimate battlefield — all of space and time — was irresistible to me," he said.
"Such a deeply disturbing and engaging character created by the formidable talents of writer Steven Moffat and actor John Hurt. It's such a privilege to be working on this."
David Tennant and Catherine Tate return
Hurt isn't the only actor to come back to Doctor Who in audio form. David Tennant and Catherine Tate have recorded all-new episodes as well, set to be released in May 2016. Oh, and we just happen to have a clip from that series too…
Just in case all that wasn't enough to look forward to, Paul McGann's Eighth Doctor will be teaming up with Alex Kingston's River Song for the very first time in a new series set to land next year.
John Hurt will return as the War Doctor this December – pre-order here

Tomato and pepper soup
This trick saved me, as tomato soup is one of my favorite, if not, my most favorite soup.
Tomato soup combined with pasta and lovage is an incredible combination. Lovage is another favorite of mine in terms of flavoring the savory food. I brought it back from Romania and I have it in my garden since few years. It dries during the winter but grows back in the early spring. It is not demanding at all and offers you so many tasty pleasures.
This tomato and pepper soup looks more like a classic tomato soup. However, adding some other vegetables enrich the dish quite a lot in terms of nutrition. It does not change the taste too much, although the pepper is very delicately felt.
Tart crust
Another aspect in my trials was to find a good recipe. For me, using 6 egg yolks just for tart crust was not a good idea as I had to do something else with the whites. Another constant issue was the amount of sugar. I saw recipes with 250g of sugar only in the crust and this for me is definitively unacceptable. I could add sugar in the filling of the tart but the tart itself I prefer to have light amount of sugar.
With so many restrictions and so many expectations, one day I found this incredible recipe. Not too much sugar, only 1 egg used and.... perfect shape after baking.
With time I also though that my failures were due to wrong tools and this proved to be partially true. I purchased special perforated tart rings, special perforated silicone mat and special perforated tray only to increase my chances of success. But when trying them the first time, I was again disappointing. It was clear to me then that the problem was the recipe I used and not only the tools. But the next recipe I tried turned out as I so long wished. So yes, tools might help. A lot. But it's not only about the tools. Nevertheless, I intend to bake more tart crusts not only using these tart rings but also other types. We shall see about this in the future.
Until then, I cannot wait to fill in these crust with some pastry cream before my kids discovering them and eating them as they are.
Quiche Lorraine with French cheese
I love many types of French cheeses and I treat myself from time to time with a piece. Many times, I take a byte, pack it back and I put it in the fridge. Today with this type, tomorrow with that type and sometimes I simply forget them in the fridge for days.
This is exactly what happened to me these days. I found an opened box of Camembert and a package of Brie opened. They do not alterate, they simply dry. Being that dry they do not look so appealing to eat them as they are. But these cheeses are too good to be thrown away, so I gave them a second life into a quiche lorraine where they melt while spreading their special taste.
What I love about quiches is that you can use almost any vegetable or cheese and they will still taste exceptionally.
I used for this quiche a big oven proof glass pan. It has around 30cm of diameter, so this is a really big savory tart. For a smaller version, for sure you'll need to reduce the amount of each ingredient. Or, maybe you want to simply try your own version with what you find in your fridge. This recipe is so flexible.... as long as you bind the vegetables and/or meat with the egg+milk and sour cream.
Chocolate tartelettes
I quickly grabbed an old good book and showed her some pictures. She picked of course the best looking one.
There were on that page 2 chocolate cakes, one more firm and one with a melted core. She wanted the firm one. I started to mix ingredients and when almost done I realized that I actually looked on the wrong recipe. Ups... nooo... I made the wrong one. But, when I looked what were the differences between the 2 cake recipes I was pleasantly surprised to see that the only difference between them were only 25g of flour. And of course a shorter baking time. It was easy then to fix my mistake.
As I baked in small ceramic pans of course the baking time needed to be reduced.
After that, my biggest challenge was to keep 3 of them just as long as I needed to photograph them.
After that moment... forget about them... they were eaten very quickly :)
Lemon hazelnuts poppy seeds muffins
They didn't raise as much as I wished but the taste and texture was outstanding. A nutty taste due to hazelnuts combined with a grainy texture due to poppy seeds and a moist one due to the raisins inside. A bitter light flavor was due to the boiled lemon. If you do not like the bitter sensation you may remove the peel of the lemon but I didn't. My kids were not big fans but I enjoyed them. The bitter taste is very very light that even for a person like me who doesn't like coffee is enjoyable. In fact I can say that this strange flavor for a muffin fits well with the rest of ingredients and that's what it makes it special.

Some safety improvements are coming to a winding roadway and two of its busy intersections in Bayside.
Community Board 7 voted on Monday, March 27, in favor of the Department of Transportation's (DOT) proposal for the Bay Terrace section of the neighborhood. The project, which encompasses Corporal Kennedy Street and 23rd Avenue between 26th Avenue and Bell Boulevard, will result in the installation of high-visibility pedestrian crosswalks, concrete islands and other safety measures along the roadway.
DOT representative Dan Wagner led a presentation regarding the project. He said the Corporal Kennedy Street/23rd Avenue corridor — currently a 25-foot-wide shared travel and parking lane — will be visually narrowed. Painted lines will divide a 12-foot-wide travel lane from the 13-foot-wide parking lane in each direction; Wagner said this aims to encourage drivers to slow down.
"This is a pedestrian-oriented proposal to help make it easier for you to walk in your own neighborhood," Wagner said.
At the intersection of 26th Avenue and Corporal Kennedy Street, the DOT will install concrete curb extensions on the northeast and southwest corners to shorten the crossing distance for pedestrians and upgrade the crosswalk to make it more visible to motorists.
At 211th Street and 23rd Avenue, DOT will install concrete curb extensions on the north side of 23rd Avenue, enhanced crossings and concrete pedestrian refuge islands, which provide two-part crossings and make pedestrians more visible to drivers.
"We know that this has been a location that the community has been concerned about for quite some time," said Al Silvestre, deputy Queens Borough Commissioner for DOT. "So we think that we have some strong proposals here to really improve pedestrian and vehicular safety."
Board member Warren Schrieber, who is also president of the Bay Terrace Community Alliance, said he sent notice about the plans to members of the community. He said he heard back from residents who were in favor of the changes and heard no feedback against it.
Board 7 Transportation Committee Chair Nick Corrado made a motion to approve the proposal, and it was carried overwhelmingly.
The DOT looks to begin the project this summer and estimates the work will take approximately two months to complete.
Councilman Paul Vallone welcomed the news of the upcoming safety project.
"This area, which is home to a large senior population, has been in serious need for pedestrian safety improvements and has been one of our main requests for years," Vallone said. "The requests have been heard and I'm proud to have worked hand in hand with the DOT to decide on and design the specific changes being made. These improvements will greatly increase the safety of all pedestrians in this area and we will continue to work with the community and the DOT to determine if any further safety enhancements are necessary."
For the complete project report, visit the DOT website.

As this tent is using some out of the box thinking one can assume that it will also require out of the box design and cost. As is the case with this Incredible couples camping tents. The Limitless accessibility this tent gives you be amazing, however a luxury and a price to match. The Tensile Stingray 3-Person Camping Tent costs far more than the average 3 person camping tents. Although it will provide you with speechless views and a wonderful sense of adventure, the tent didn't score full points in the section due to cost more than $100 per sleeping space. Most camping tents of average to well-made quality should never cost more than $100 per sleeping space as it simply isn't justified. However, to be fair, this is a specialized design of tent and you will be at the envy of your friends as you look down upon them. Though the tent material isn't anything special in contrast to regular camping tents it is of a high quality and strength, secondly the tent is somewhat minimalist with features. With most of its manufacturing costs begin invested in stability, strength and safety. How this tent works is somewhat simple but you will begin to understand and be grateful such expensive strong materials were used in its design.
As mentioned earlier this tent is made of high quality material, as it should be considering you will be camping above ground. A tent like this need to be strong enough to support both you and your belongings or you'll end up with a rather sore bottom.
The base sheet is made of thick and strong 240D inclined joint nylon-polyester fabric. This specifically designed material will provide all the strength and durability you will ever need to stay safe and secure in your tents. The rainfly also made of 70 D high quality polyester which is both PU & UV protected. The rainfly bostes a 3000mm HH and measures an area of
160ft² / 14m².
It is Important that because of these coatings the tent comes with the following warning for Residents of California.
California residents: Click here for Proposition 65 warning.
Holding everything above the ground safely attached to nearby trees is the tents ratchets and straps 3 x Straps 19′ / 6m straps and heavy-duty ratchets buckles- 2.5 ton minimum breaking strength.
Though this tents materials are strong and of good quality it is worth highlighting that because the tent is made of polyester it is not advised to keep the tent exposed to excessive sun over long duration of time. As with all polyester tens irrelevant of UV protection they can eventually begin to sag, fade and wear down. Simply set up your tent in pertly shaded areas. Considering this tent is usually suspended in trees, ensuring a partly shading set up shouldn't be too difficult.
Polyester is also a poor insular and ventilator. However, to overcome these issues the design of this tent has plenty of ventilation.
A positive to polyester is that is more tear resistant and less likely to develop mold in contrast to nylon. Secondly is also a great light weight material ensuring a lighter travel package and increasing manovrability.
Whilst it appears the tent is light on the features side it is very generous with its Durability. The base and straps of the tent is capable of withstanding a maximum weight load of 400kg / 880lbs. That's plenty of weight for two people and their belongings. Both of the poles are 8.5mm diameter anodized aluminum alloy 7001 T6 rating. These poles are both flexible and strong. Keeping all of this material ad weight secure way up in the tress is the tents ratchets and straps. The 3 straps are 19′ / 6m in dimension and are supported by the tents heavy-duty ratchet buckles bosting a breaking strength of 2.5 tons. All of this combined equals a very strong durable and secure set up for safe suspension.
The tents material is strong tear resistant polyester which is all held together with durable sewing methods. The tents seams are double sewn lap-felled seams which are excellent for camping tents as it provides the extra strength required for stretching and pulling that may accur during stormy weather via rain and wind. The entry points feature strong nylon coiled zippers which are also provided with zipper flaps to ensure your zips are protected from dirt and moisture allowing for a confident and consistent zipping action when required.
Should you wish to protect your trapdoors zippers further there is an after purchase option to buy a trapdoor cover.
The Tensile Stingray 3-Person Camping Tent is both sizable and spacious for a camping couple. Though the tent does specify it is designed for three people, this only refers to the number of sleeping bag which can fit inside. For a more spacious experience I would suggest it is more appropriate for a couple. The tents dimension suggest enough room for either two separate sleeping bags or a double with plenty of room storage. Depending on if you plan to use the floor hatch or not it would be wise to use a set up that doesn't cover the exit.
Size: 4.1 x 4.1 x 4.1m / 13.5 x 13.5 x 13.5ft
In terms of manovrabilty this tent is average. With a total weight of 10kg/ 22lbs (once experienced, you can save up to 940g / 2lbs by dropping 2 ratchets from your system and adding weblocks) and a pack down size of 55 x 24 x 24cm / 21.6 x 9.4 x 9.4in it isn't as tractable as one would desire to achieve reaching the unreachable areas to set up this awesome tents. That begin said it is not a tent for one person who is hiking. In the context of a camping couple it would be wise for one individual to carry this tent whist your partner carries the other gear. This will allow a safer more practible method of transport for you and allow for the hard to reach areas to be more practible and achievable.
Season Rating
Surprisingly this tent comes with a 4 seasons rating. This essentially means that the tent can withstand all types of weather and temperatures all year round. However, it is not designed for winter temperatures you might find in the arctic circle. Though the tent is 4 seasons rated, customers have suggested purchasing an aftermarket insulated floor mat as the tent can be a bit breezy or cold through the floor. As one can imagine all of your bodies heat would leave via the floor and not offer much in terms of insulation.
Wind Resistance
The Tensile Stingray 3-Person Camping Tent is very wind resistant. Its smooth dome like design in combination with its three point high tension stability system and heavy-duty tent poles ensure that the tent isn't going anywhere. The only thing you need to worry about is ensuring you attach yourself to appropriately strong trees.
Dome shaped tents assist with wind resistance by allowing the wind to roll over the tent more easily as its smooth round shapes creates less resistance for the wind in contrast to a flat wall. As the tent is secured in three locations under tension, the tent is secured in all directions from the wind and will not sway, unlike a traditional two point hammocks.
Water Resistance
The score for water resistance for this tent was rather high. This is due to a combination of the tent begin a high quality polyester. Polyester has natural water resistant abilities in comparison to canvas. Secondly the material has a water resistant PU coating added. This coating bosts a Hydrostatic Head of 3000mm. This measurement is used to determine at which level of water weight the tents material will begin to seem water inside. A PU of this level is generously high and will guarantee a waterproof experience in bad weather.
It is worth noting that I did not see an specification whether the seams of the tent have been sealed or not. Was a general rule and good practice, it is always recommended ensuring an extra level of water protection by purchasing an aftermarket seam sealant to sure no leeks through the seams.
Guarantee Level
This product comes with a product warrant (Their Warranty).
Though the warranty is rather limited it is worth highlighting that
this tent is not an expensive high performing tents.
To achieve the maximum life from your tent and avoid failure from
general ware and tear please read our free tent care hints and tips post
Set Up Time
Set-up time for this tent is below average in comparison to other tents. However, it is worth highlighting that this is not a standard conventional tents. It would be unfair to make comparisons of this tents setup time to other standard tents. This tent is somewhat specialized and offers a whole new way of camping and having adventures. That begin said, the tent takes an average of 15 minutes to set up and pack up. As with most tents this time can be improved with practice.
Final Thoughts
This would be the first tent I have done a review on that didn't score full points for its price. Though it is slightly expensive, the tents durability, quality of material, wind and water resistance all add up in manufacturing costs. The product is well worth its cost in value as it will certainly provide an awesome camping experience. The tents dimensions are generous with enough room for 2 and luggage and comes with a cool trap door exit as well as a standard front door. Pest and insects will not bother you far up in the tress as the tent is enclosed with very fine nylon mesh designed to keep all the unwanted pests outside of your tents.
I would personally only purchase this tent if you are looking for something new and fun in camping. If you are a beginner camper I would stick to normal tents for now. As mentioned earlier my favorite feature of this tent is that the company plants trees for each sale of tents. Helping plant forest is amazing and will allow our future generations to enjoy what we are all enjoying today.

The Mitsubishi Outlander is a three-row crossover SUV which is mainly popular among families with a limited budget since it is affordable, safe, and comes with the efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain. It is one of a few compact SUVs which come with a third row and a plug-in hybrid. As well, it is one of the best-selling SUVs in Europe. The 2018 model year has added a 7.0-inch screen and a rearview camera as standard. As well, more safety features such as blind spot warning, lane change assist, a rear cross traffic etc have been added to the SEL trim level. However, the newest version has made its premiere at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show and it will go on sale as the 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
The brand-new Mitsubishi Outlander will bring numerous upgrades and changes. Not only it will look prettier but it will also be more powerful than before. Under the hood, there is a stronger gas engine and more powerful electric motor. The battery capacity will be improved as well for around 15 % and the new Outlander will be more fuel efficient than ever. Inside the cabin, there will also be some small but noticeable upgrades.
Engine and performance of the 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
The engine of the newest 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will be updated for better fuel economy and performance. It will no longer use a 2.0-liter Otto-cycle gas engine but instead the new 2.4-liter Atkinson-cycle gas unit. This engine will be combined with a stronger electric motor and larger battery of 13.8 kWh. Of course, we can expect better output and better fuel economy also. The all-electric range will be improved too and will be around 25 miles. The engine will be mated to a continuously variable transmission.
Design of exterior and interior
The new 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has arrived with some subtle yet noticeable changes in its exterior styling. On the front, we can notice restyled grille, rectangular fog lamps, and new LED headlamps. The rear end is fitted with a larger rear spoiler. Furthermore, we can also notice new 18-inch two-tone alloy wheels. All these changes have made the new Outlander more handsome and attractive.
The changes inside the cabin of the 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV are minor. However, this time the seats are upholstered in quality leather. As well, there is a new instrument panel and upgraded switchgear. But generally, the interior of the Outlander is comfortable, quality and well-built.
The dashboard is equipped with a standard 7.0-inch touchscreen for infotainment system and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. Among other standard systems, there are USB, dual-zone climate control, keyless entry, Bluetooth, a rearview camera etc. The safety equipment includes blind spot monitors, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and so on.
Release date and price
The 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has just been presented to the public. The pricing is not yet announced but it is expected to stay close to the outgoing model. It starts at around $24,000.

Having had Geni.com for several years I never realized how important? their (Geni.com) lineage out to someone could be. My recent adventure gave me a response from person I linked to. It made it real. Also of course, the person was alive.
We're Related.com is fun and fascinating. I think Ancestry.com was not getting as many people digging in their data and wanted to get more people to be more active. What better way than offering you a potential link to someone famous (?) . Now that is going to be interesting because many, so called famous people do not rock my boat, so to speak.
We also have to remember we can choose our friends but our relatives we can not change.
The color of skin does not bother me, I have alway said you could be green and purple with pink polka dots and it would not bother me but your attitude will put me on alert in a heart beat.
Having found some interesting ancestors on my own, it is fun to see what else would pop up.
Having had this idea in my head for more than 30 years, I am having fun seeing if it is somewhat truthful in fact. You meet someone and you feel so connected, a friendship develops and you draw closer than originally expected with delight.
Now 20 years later with an unusual event or activity you find that their background is shared by your background. You dig and suddenly find they are distant cousins.
I went to high school with a descendant of a distant ancestor, was that ever a surprise. Tomales High School.
Now I wonder if a dear acquaintance from St. Vincent's High School would bring the same results.
She was much like a sister, even closer at times. Lorretta Ferreria where are you? Of course you are married and have had children because Dad talked to you on the street in Petaluma, Ca pre 1996. He said you lived in Santa Rosa then.
When we (CVGS) members started the society. There were 8 people involved, of the 8, 6 of us all came, ancestrally, from the same County and State. After a couple of lunches and shared chatting we were all 6 from the same family in Greene Co. PA. We were all cousins, The odds of that happening have to be weird. There is something about bonding that seems to draw relatives to relatives. I am the last one of those 6 still living now. We started meeting in the early 80's and knew we were kin by 1983.
We were lucky because some of them worked at the library where I frequented with my children for homework. We learned we all wanted to create a society that the neighborhood did not have. It did not happen quickly it took 10 years before we had enough members to get the state papers in 1993.
If life gave me the time I would like to see how each of our close acquaintances are related.
Chuckling my distant cousin and dear friend, we met at church and Altar Society Meetings in the 1970's, we always kept in touch. She even came and worked at CVHS with me a few years. Later we discussed some of our surnames and found we shared many same names, places, times and events.
So we dug and found we are kin on two lines and probably 5. Another person shared much and we learned we are cousins two different ways so far. Another member has at least 3 lines that interlink with mine.
Have you ever given it thought that your dear friend may have been from past ancestors and family?
Would love to hear some feed back. Thanks

text: Training > Long distance Ironman: What should you do once it's over? Wondering what you should do once your Ironman is over, and when you should think about your next big adventure? Dermott Hayes has this post-Ironman advice Posted: 25 October 2019by Dermott Hayes Tweet Life after Ironman is a strange place for the average age-grouper who's had the race at the forefront of their focus for so many months, maybe even years. For a pro triathlete or an age-grouper in search of Kona, they will have a clear plan as to what comes next. But, if like 95% of athletes, completing an Ironman is the pinnacle of your goals, and you don't have more races on the horizon, then you must prepare for life after the race. Everybody's IM race experience is different; the physical and mental exertions that have gone into it will differ, so there's no 'one size fits all' approach to your post-race plan. One thing's for certain, though – the training, the build-up and the race will leave you with some level of fatigue that must be factored into your post-race plan. What happens to your body if you suddenly stop training? Adopting a complete no-training approach is not the best policy, mainly because it's a little bit 'cold turkey', with too much of a significant shift in training volume. You've trained your body to be able to sustain 10hrs+ per week, so dropping to zero is too much of a shock and may leave you lethargic. It can also have a major effect on your waistline. After months and months of training, consuming large volumes of calories, it can be tricky to get the calories in vs calories out balance right as your metabolism will still be craving large amounts of food. So finding the right balance is key, and this is best achieved with a plan that reduces in volume by approximately 40-60% in duration and keeps the amount of high-intensity training time to a minimum. A sensible approach is to have 2-3 complete rest days per week for at least the first month post IM. Training sessions would have a 'recovery' feel to them, with a lot less concern about pace/power/speed, instead training for enjoyment. Taking a day-to-day approach where you train/have a rest day if you feel like it is reasonable, but be careful not to drift into every day being a rest day. Another addition is to include variations of the normal swim/bike/run, e.g mountain biking or more gym work. Do 6-8 weeks of light training while you allow your body and mind the time to recover before tackling your next big tri adventure. Starting back too quickly can lead to injury and early burn-out. So let your body lead the way; it'll let you know when you're ready to start serious training again. What happens to your body when you start exercising after a break?
