This year's MSA British Rally Champions, Welsh duo Elfyn Evans and Craig Parry, will be joined by the fastest Manx man on four wheels when the DMACK British Rally Team tackles the final round of the series next week.
Mark Higgins and Darren Garrod will join the newly-crowned champions for Rally Isle of Man – the island where triple BRC champion Higgins stamped his authority as the fastest driver earlier this year.
He smashed his own TT lap record for a car, setting an awesome average speed of 128.7mph around the world famous course in June. And the James Bond stunt driver will be aiming to challenge the BRC's leading drivers for a sixth victory on his home round of the championship next week.
Higgins will be piloting a Palletforce-backed Ford Fiesta R5 for the first time on Tarmac when the event kicks off from Douglas on Thursday evening, and he completed a systems check and seat-fitting at M-Sport on Thursday in preparation. Higgins acknowledges it will take a few stages to reach the pace of the championship regulars but hopes his experience of the Manx roads will help bridge the gap.
While the championship pressure may be off for Evans and Parry, after sealing the title with a dominant victory on the Ulster Rally last month, the pair are still chasing a fifth win this season in their Autotek-run Fiesta R5.
Evans has only competed on the event once previously but he's hoping to master the bumpy lanes and high-speed roads that the rally traditionally includes.
All DMACK-equipped competitors will have access to the same DMT-RC2 range which sealed a dominant victory in Ulster – mastering wet, dry and muddy asphalt roads. After clinching the BRC1, BRC2 and Junior BRC titles, DMACK now has its focus on the final major remaining accolade, the BRC championship for teams, which it leads by 23 points.
Rally Isle of Man is based at the TT Grandstand in Douglas and gets into gear at 7pm on Thursday evening with a mile-long blast along the sea front promenade before crews tackle two evening stages.
Friday offers six timed tests stretching the length of the island including famous runs through Druidale and Round Table – often made difficult by fog and mist blown in across the Irish Sea.
The rally draws to a close on Saturday with another six stages, culminating with the 13.15-mile Classic test which finishes in front of the TT Grandstand.
Elfyn Evans said: "Despite having only competed once before, I really enjoy the stages on the Isle of Man. There are some classic roads and a real mix of characteristics – from narrow and bumpy to fast, flowing and wide. With the drivers' championship sewn up, our focus is on the teams' championship and helping to secure another title for DMACK."
Mark Higgins said: "I'm really looking forward to the event and it's great to see it return to a classic three-day format. It will be a challenge and take me a while to settle in to driving the car on Tarmac for the first time, but it's exciting to be competing against so much competition. There are six guys who could win the rally and I'm hoping to be one of them by the end of the weekend."

We already have discussed about the mistakes that a lot of women commit in choosing a right bra. It has already been estimated that there are about 80% of females who wear the wrong bra. Needless to say, they are also wearing it in the wrong way. Women's breasts regardless of size, need support that can only be provided by a bra. Wearing a bra is definitely a good habit; however one should make it even better by wearing it the right way and only then your bra can provide you the comfort that you long for.
When you buy a new bra, it always has a bright and new feeling. I am sure there are many of you who want it to look as beautiful as it did the first day when you bought it. Unfortunately, unless you start wearing your bra the right way, you would soon start desiring for a new bra.
The straps and the hook are two main facets of a bra, so you need to ensure that you don't stretch any of it. Wear your bra gently. Ensure that you adjust the straps to its maximum length. Hook the bra in the middle hook and put the straps on by positioning your breasts into the cups by lifting them with your hand. Slowly tighten the straps to offer support to your breasts. Look in the mirror to confirm whether your bra has been comfortably fixed. Ensure that you have worn the bra in the proper position so that it remains comfortable throughout the day and gives you ample support. Also, to avoid yourself from getting into an embarrassing situation at work or college, wear your bra properly.
As bra is the most important lingerie aspect in a woman's wardrobe, you need to be careful by wearing it the right way. This would not only help you boost your confidence, but also increase the life span of your bra.

Years ago I was prescribed compression stockings for varicose veins in my legs. They weren't big veins or very noticeable to someone not specifically looking for them but I knew they were there and they bothered me. I never did use the stockings because, well, they were ugly and expensive ($100++). Now Lululemon carries compression socks for runners to support muscle recovery and leg drainage of lactic acid buildup. Here is what I love about my lulu compression socks:
1. Cheap! $25 and they work just as well for varicose veins as the prescription ones. very tight fitting yet comfy. I had noticeable difference after one use.
2. relieves achy legs after a run in about 20 minutes for me. Also great when you get puffy, achy legs during PMS.
3. great for leg and foot swelling in pregnancy
4. They look much cuter than the pharmacy brand ones.

The missing Madeleine McCann case seems to be a web of intrigue which makes one question thoughts previously held and taken as 'gospel'. Nearly 4 years on, there are many more questions than answers, otherwise knows as the McNiggles. Little things that stick in the mind and no matter what, they just can't be explained. From day one I've had these niggles, starting with the news that all these children were left to fend for themselves in empty apartments. Were they really left alone?? That little niggle intensified as I waited for news of the missing child and watched her father read a plea to the waiting press, not appearing to speak from the heart but reading from a sheet of paper.
More recently I read an article from yesteryear in This is London, and discovered that the journalist shared my niggle about certain points raised on Portuguese TV. I'm certainly not naive and believe that there is nothing wrong with swinging amongst consenting adults, but is this what this holiday camp is all about, to those in the know? Who knows what goes on behind closed doors? Or closed, open or partially opened windows? Or even those damn shutters? Anyway, I had hoped for some niggle relief, but me oh my, that little niggle just got bigger...
"Several Portuguese lawyers and journalists, along with a uniformed police officer from the National Republican Guard I spoke to outside the Ocean Club apartment, told me solemnly not only that the McCanns and their friends were "swingers" who had taken their holiday together to indulge in group sex (an assertion made repeatedly by the Portuguese Press), but that "everyone knows" that its tolerance of orgies is the Mark Warner Ocean Club resort's main selling point"
This is London 16.09.07
This is London 16.09.07
(I should like to make it clear to those guilty of skimming that the above quoted paragraph was taken directly from the aforementioned This is London article. I have not had any private or personal conversations with the GNR, although I really would like to.)
Next is the well publicised flouting of apparent religious devoutness of the couple. This is a couple who have partaken in IVF with wonderful consequences - not one, but three successes. Nothing is more precious than the birth of a child, and what a reward that child is after carrying and nurturing for all those months. And especially after the worrying first few weeks of IVF. A joyous outcome, yet the Catholic church opposes all kinds of in vitro fertilisation. We have also seen the religiously devout mother in the act of receiving holy communion from an Anglican priest (an act frowned upon by the Catholic Church, some would deem this as sinful!?) whilst a Catholic priest watched from the sidelines. A devout Catholic knows this is forbidden and would never receive it. This niggle grew into the even huger niggle of... have they been excommunicated? I recall Mrs Healy's confusion in the early days as to why her daughter had even asked for a priest because they weren't really religious?
The niggle of the book. Yes Goncalo Amaral's Maddie - The Truth of the Lie... currently available at all major bookshops in Europe as a result of the recent overturning of the ban. I quote Kate McCann yet again from yesteryear...
"Our main worry was people believing that Madeleine was dead and then stopping looking for her."
Fair enough, I totally understand and agree with that comment. Yet why no attempt to stop the book from being published in the first place? Why no attempt to block the sale of the book once it had been released? Why wait for months and months before taking any action, while in the meantime the book is selling out all over Europe, being translated online into English and being read by all and sundry. The Team weren't so concerned about the search being impeded or hampered during these months. Were they waiting for the sales tally to mount or were they spurred into action because an English version to be sold in the UK was in the offing?
Another little niggle that has been awakened in the last few days has been the phone and text messages that the parents and their friends reportedly deleted from their mobile phones. This irked me initially because surely on discovering their child missing they should have done the obvious - looked for her? Instead, deleting their calls became a priority rather than searching alongside the population of Praia de Luz and the police After reading the ruling of the three Portuguese judges who overturned the ban on Snr Amaral's book, my niggle surfaced and grew...
"What is certain is that since the start of the investigation there were incongruent and even contradictory situations concerning the witness statements; the telephone records of calls that were made and received on mobile phones that belonged to the couple and to the group of friends that were on holidays with them; the movements of people right after the disappearance of the little girl was noticed, concerning the state in which the bedroom from where the child disappeared from was found (closed window? open window? partially open window?) etc., and the mystery would only become even thicker due to the clues that were left by the already mentioned sniffer dogs."
And finally, a real niggling niggle that just won't go away no matter how I try to explain it. Eddie the Cadaver Dog who, according to the experts, is infallible. Eddie marks what he's trained to mark, nothing else. He does not lie. This dog was taken to various locations in and around Praia de Luz, yet the only place places marked were in relation to the family of missing Madeleine. In their apartment, clothes, car and sadly on Madeleine's favourite cuddly toy, Cuddlecat. To me that is a momentous discovery, and I just can't explain that other than the obvious - the dog was simply doing what he was trained to do, so who was he signalling?
With the ease of online browsing and a wealth of information at our fingertips, we are so much more informed than we would have been 10 or more years ago. A huge thanks should go to the many translators and foreign posters, without whom we would certainly be in the dark, following the inconsistent version of events of the parents and their friends. Should we believe them, can we believe them? Surely they do not have the definitive right to insist that we believe their version of events and nothing else? The police believe more questions need to be answered, indeed the mother refused to answer any questions... questions need to be answered but these answers just pose even more questions.
There are, of course many more niggles from Timbuktoo and beyond which could be collated and turned into one big niggle. Fact is, it's already been done and sadly it is what it is - the Case of Missing Madeleine McCann. Cobbled, nobbled and wobbled into one enormous McNiggle and I ask myself if this is just the simple case of a missing child, then why am I so irked? Now more doubts have been cast after reading the latest ruling in this sticky web. Perhaps the most important niggle of all... what really happened to Madeleine and where is she?

Chinese marbled tea eggs, stewed in a black tea/soy sauce/spice blend, are a ubiquitous and cheap snack sold all around China in snack stands and convenience stores. The aromas of tea, cinnamon, star anise, and soy sauce are intoxicating, just perfect for fall.The eggs are also easy to make at home. Getting the marbling effect is as simple as cracking the eggs once they're cooked. You can use any black tea; just avoid green tea since it's too astringent to use for simmering.) The eggs can be simmered for 1 to 2 hours; longer simmering means a more intense flavor and color. Once the eggs are cooked, you can eat them hot or cold as a snack. I've made lazy meals out of just 2 eggs over noodles, or chopped up eggs over fried rice. Or serve them as appetizers at a party, cut in half with caviar on top.Read More

text: In Virginia today, a truck carrying hazardous materials exploded after it ran off the road and then bumped into another tractor trailer. This resulted in an explosion which killed three and required the evacuation of many nearby residents due to the escape of hazardous materials from the truck accident.In most kinds of automobile accident cases, it is simply the impact between the two vehicles which produces the injury. With tractor trailers, the load is sometimes the item that produces the injury, as occurred in this case. In other cases, it can be the load falling from the trailer or shifting during transport. A load shift during transport will frequently cause the trailer to tip over. Any one who is involved in an accident with a truck which was caused by the load which was being carried by the tractor trailer would do well to contact an experienced Chicago personal injury lawyer, as highly experienced experts will be needed to show whose responsibility it was to properly secure the load and how the failure to do so resulted in the truck accident.

Hi Jan: my ladder climbing days are over I think. We used our zoom.Delete
Great series on the Raven. I hope they do well. Enjoy your day!ReplyDelete
What a good sport Norm is. Great photos of the ravens! My sister-in-law spotted one in Guelph.ReplyDelete

Incroyable !! Vous avez eu la chance de capturer avec votre objectif cette couvée !... Une sacrée escalade !
Merci pour le partage de cette belle expérience.

Didn't really know how far south they nested. We cat inlay hear and see them regularly around here, though crows are more plentiful.ReplyDelete
Hello David,ReplyDelete
Beautiful series about the Ravens.
Great that you off the farmer might come closer.
Best regards, Irma
A heartwarming story, David. What a lovely man Norm is.ReplyDelete
Best wishes - - - Richard
Fantastic people, David. You made a wonderful series and the story is great to read. Greetings, JokeReplyDelete
Hi David. With a guy named Norm you can't really go wrong can you? That's a mighty fine mower he has too so maybe he'd let you take it for a spin in your back yard.ReplyDelete
Is it coincidence that your Ravens are spreading south and moving into agricultural situations much like UK ones? Our UK Ravens now use high trees in the countryside as well as their traditional crags and mountain homes. it's not all good news as they take their toll of ground nesting waders like Lapwings.
Amazing Ravens, beautiful.ReplyDelete
Hi David,ReplyDelete
very nice that your friend told where was the nest of raven. So you could make beautiful pictures. The first three photos are also very beautiful :-)
Greetings, Helma
These are becoming more widespread in the UK too, still rare in Japan though...............ReplyDelete
Hello David, just back from one week from France, Normandie. Reading your blog with this amazing bird. Ravens wow not so common to see. So kind of the farmer to give you this change to get closer for taking this pictures.ReplyDelete
Welcome home, Roos. Hope you had a great vacation.Delete

The Steelers were coming off a victory in which they were short-handed, and they continued their dominance in Week 3 of the MFL season.
One of the early season MVP-candidate Allawi Al-Salem has led the charge for the Steelers as he had one of the best interceptions of the season by skying over Ali Haroon at a critical juncture of the game. QB Salim Ladha has been steady at quarterback, while all players continue to chip in both defensively and offensively. The Steelers remain the only undefeated team in MFL this season. For the Patriots, this game script could have gone a lot differently had they not had the yips. The Patriots uncharacteristically dropped a handful of passes, and 4 of the drops could have resulted in a touchdown. Due to the receivers clearly having a bad day, Mikael Ratansi was forced to take more shots downfield which resulted in more picks. It may be something teams plan against the Patriots, if they continue to drop the ball at an alarming rate.
The second game of the week had a lot more drama as the Raiders were short-handed for the 2nd time in 3 weeks. The Giants looked poised to take advantage as they got Imran Ebrahim back this week, and were hoping to turn their season around from an 0-2 start. The Giants went up early this game, and looked to be in command early. In a surprise move, the Raiders started Bilal Mamdani at QB, choosing for last year's MVP to play receiver to start the game. The Giants gifted an early TD to the Patriots on a tipped ball that landed in the hands of Kumail Meghani. After the early scores, it became a defensive battle with both teams going into halftime with the score tied at 14.
The undoing for the Giants may have been their early drops. In the first half, both Imran Ebrahim & Mujtaba Abidi had drops in the end zone that would have given the Giants the lead. Taleb Zaidi had a strong game, but the numbers wouldn't attest to that as his final line had him with only 18 completions in 35 attempts. Giants eventually did take the lead late in the second half, and at that point, the Raiders made the switch back to Kumail Meghani. The Raiders marched down the field twice in the final two possessions, and took the lead with 4 seconds to go in the game. A hail-mary later, the Raiders had clinched an improbable victory. In other news, Mujtaba Abidi has had a strong start to the season, leading the league in reception and seems to have taken his game a notch higher this season. He was responsible for all three of the Giants touchdowns.
The last game of the week showed great potential, however the 2-0 Cardinals were missing their starting QB and had to resort to a 2-headed QB combo by the Kassam brothers. Khaleel impressed early as after a short pass to Omar Khamissa to start the game, Khaleel threw an absolute bomb brought in by Nadeem. Unfortunately that was all that can be said as far as the highlights were concerned for the Cardinals. The game showed a glaring weakness that can be said for most teams in the league, if the starting QB is away, the team usually struggles. On the other side, Hisham Ali was throwing the deep ball that would make Ben Roethlisberger proud. Speaking of Big Ben, this team might have found their Antonio Brown. Shoaib Mamdani has played at a MVP-level early on, and is on an absolute rampage when it comes to scoring TDs. He's become the deep-threat for his team, and it was on display early and often in this game as he scored 5 TDs this week alone.
The Bengals have been a team of unsung heroes this season and true to form, all players chipped in this game. Ali Raza Rizvi and Asad Mewawala have proven to be defensive stalwarts up front, and Danial Ali has been uncharacteristically vocal this season on the defensive end. Once Ahsan Raza and Asghar Molu acclimate to the team, this team will be a darkhorse to hoist the MFL trophy in May. For the Cardinals, this game may have not told them much about their offense than their defense. They routinely gave up big plays, and while Said Samater not being there played a factor, the team showed a lack of passion for the game. We'll consider this as a blip on the radar, but it will be situation worth monitoring moving forward.

Pets are straight up ballers who will invade everything in your life. When you go the bathroom, when you're making out with your woman on the couch, when you're eating dinner — they manage to infiltrate every personal moment and will continue to be there for you, even when you don't need them. But when the tables turn and you invade their personal space, rule number one is to always have a camera ready, just in case your cat decides to play the piano or your dog starts to talk like a human.
Pets approval ratings
In the world of internet famous pets, dogs are more popular than cats, even though there are more cat celebrities. In Uganda, though, felines and fur balls are trumped by chickens and goats.
Whichever animal gets your funny bone, know that those hours you spend giggling at videos aren't wasted. A study conducted in 2015 said that folks who watch pet videos and memes felt happier and had a less anxious personality.
So who's to thank for making the world a happier place? These guys below.
Maru, the box-sliding cat (2007)
Maru likes to slide into boxes. The internet, apparently, likes to watch Maru sliding into boxes. And his Youtube channel is the 7th most subscribed channel in all of Japan.
Claim to fame: Maru has three books and has appeared in various media outlets and now has a new home…in a box, obviously.
Mishka, the talking husky (2008)
If someone tells you that pets can't speak, tell them they're wrong and shove this video in their face. Mishka is a Siberian husky who can, if not carry on an actual conversation, repeat phrases like 'I love you' and 'I'm hungry' which are basically the two most important sentences anyone should know.
Claim to fame: Mishka helps advertisers sell their products with her "talking" abilities and stays home with her owner.
Lil Bub, the tongue-drooping cat (2011)
Her less-than-photogenic appearance is what got Lil Bub famous in the first place. This little one always has her tongue hanging, thanks to her short jaw and lack of teeth. Lil Bub had a rough start in one of her nine lives (read feral mom and severe genetic mutations), but her owner Mike Bridavsky from Indiana didn't seemed to mind.
Claim to fame: Lil Bub starred in a documentary called Lil Bub and Friendz alongside other famous internet cats, a web series called Lil Bub's Big SHOW among other media appearances and now stays home with her owner and his family. Pretty sweet life for a cat who has her own merch collection.
Boo, the stuffed animal (2012)
Boo is just a Pomeranian living the good life, who just so happens to look like a stuffed toy. Owner Irene Ahn works at Facebook in the finance department, so naturally Boo has his own Facebook page with 17 million fans.
Claim to fame: Boo has kept himself busy with three books, his own product line and becoming the official spokesdog for Virgin America Airlines.
Grumpy Cat (2012)
Like Tyrion Lannister, Tardar Sauce didn't let dwarfism get in her quest for world domination. Forever known as Grumpy Cat, he's since appeared on TV shows, magazine covers and is one of the few felines in the world to earn an annual salary.
Claim to fame: Tardar Sauce is now set to have her own waxwork at Madame Tussauds.

Detectives hunting the ATM raiders got a massive break when a stolen HGV was discovered hundreds of miles away in England.
The August 2015 attack on the Co-op store in Kingswells, seven miles west of Aberdeen, had police baffled as they scoured the country's CCTV cameras seeking a grey-coloured getaway car.
For more than a week after the supermarket sting in Kingswells, where the gang got away with £16,000, officers were carrying out patrols and appealing for leads to a grey Audi A4.
Despite having a well-drilled response plan in place to track traffic on CCTV, there was no sign of the Audi car described by witnesses.
But two weeks after the August 3 raid, detectives got a breakthrough thanks to good police work by a young officer.
A stolen heavy goods vehicle was spotted by its owner in a lorry park in Wigan, Lancashire.
He alerted police and a sharp-witted officer realised he was on to something bigger when he opened up the wagon.
Inside, there were hammocks tied to the side of the van and gas canisters, tubing and a white Audi.
Like something out of the 1969 Michael Caine classic film The Italian Job, in which getaway cars were hidden inside a bus, Andrew White's gang were hitting their targets in high-powered cars – then driving them into the back of the HGV.
Detective Superintendent Alex Dowall, who led the Scottish end of the inquiry, said: "No one knew anything about the lorry until it was recovered by the owner in Wigan. By that time we were working closely with TITAN, the north-west's regional crime team.
"But it was actually really good work by a young officer that was called to the scene from Greater Manchester Police.
"When he opened up the truck, he recognised that all of these things could be used to commit gas attacks on ATMs so he secured it as a crime scene.
"We then got forensic teams in to recover every item inside the HGV. That's how we started to get bits and pieces of DNA. We got fingerprints and DNA."
By trawling back through CCTV footage, the police were able to pinpoint the HGV heading south hours after the ATM job in Kingswells.
And they were then able to piece together the gang's movements on the Sunday night before the attack
At 6pm, CCTV at an industrial estate on the outskirts of Aberdeen picked up a dark Audi coming into the car park, followed by an HGV.
Dowall said: "The Audi turns back and the drivers are in conversation. They've travelled from Liverpool and probably off-loaded the car just out of CCTV shot.
"On the journey up the car would have been in the back of the HGV. None of our other inquiries showed the Audi travelling to Scotland but the lorry did.
"We were getting reports of high-powered vehicles committing these crimes so the initial response is to look for these vehicles. We were completely unaware of that lorry at that time."
The discovery of the lorry gave detectives vital clues as to how the gang planned and carried out their heists.
Dowall described the method used to blow open the cash machines as "crude".
He said: "It's gas, oxyacetylene gas. They insert it into the ATM and then ignite the gas. They know if they insert gas and ignite it, that it will explode but how much gas they don't know. Sometimes they will use too little, sometimes too much."
The gang used power tools to cut through the shutters of stores. Once inside, they would wrap straps or chains round the ATM and secure them to a vehicle to drag out the machine.
Safely away from the scene, they broke open the ATM to get at the cash inside.
A Co-op ATM stolen from Carnoustie hours before the gang's arrest was taken to unoccupied Panbride House, former home of athlete Liz McColgan.
Dowall believes the gang chanced upon the house after spotting a sale sign.
He said: "They'd been up a few hours before, drove around to see where the police station was, and the main exit roads.
"They'd have come across the 'For Sale' sign, the gated property, it was random. It was within the grounds of that house that we got a stolen car with the ATM wedged in the back."
Dowall said the successful outcome of the inquiry was down to old-fashioned, traditional police work.
He said: "We were aware of the crime in Carnoustie and despite the early hours of the morning we got a great response from the public.
"They reported all these cars and the registrations were circulated to all the police that were on duty.
"There was a police officer in McDonald's at Arbroath and she sees the car in the car park and calls it in. We were able to direct all our resources to that car park. A really good piece of basic, traditional police work.
"We got the five that committed the Carnoustie crime, and the rest because we'd built up that inquiry. It gave us the final piece of the jigsaw for TITAN to go and arrest the others.
"In Carnoustie they came up in stolen cars and stole cars from around the area because we'd recovered their lorry by then. They were getting to the point of using very high-powered vehicles and getting away really quickly, driving at very dangerous speeds to get away from the police.
"Police Scotland did a really comprehensive investigation into the Scottish crimes.Then we worked in conjunction with TITAN, who pulled together all the English crimes."

Cable laying methods are as follows: the buried shallow Groove, pipe laying, laying, cable laying, cable tunnels, overhead laying several ways have advantages and disadvantages, taking into account urban development planning in General, density of cable line laying length number of existing buildings and the surrounding environment and so on. Technically, easy cables through the cable tunnels and in cable trench construction, maintenance and repair. In some developed countries, cities, urban planning and construction, has taken into account the public tunnel. Practice has proved that the public tunnel runs well, greatly reducing the number of repeated investment and repeated excavation of pavement, but the initial huge investment, cost of building materials in China, due to various constraints, this installation method is minimal. In contrast, laying laying is cheap and shallow laying method, direct-buried cable is the most economical and widespread electricity laying method, it applied to the suburbs and traffic do not place too often. But not for cable maintenance and repair, in the event of cable failure, even if you use the tester to measure the point of failure, is to reopen in trenches, extremely inconvenient. Selection of cabling ways, to the actual conditions, according to project conditions, factors such as environment, cable type, quantity and, in a development perspective, according to meet the reliability, ease of maintenance requirements and technical economic and rational principles.

A study published last year surveyed thousands of Canadian high school and middle school students who overwhelmingly said their parents are or will be the biggest influence on how they drive. It is critically important that parents set the example they wish their children to follow. If teenagers see their parents talk on a cell phone while driving, speeding or not wearing a safety belt, what kind of impression are parents making on them?
Parents should not be afraid to establish expectations for their young drivers, discuss those expectations frequently, and ensure they are being met. Research repeatedly shows that teens that have regular communication with their parents about expected behaviors are less likely to make irresponsible decisions.
Parental influence on teen drivers may help explain a clear disconnect between how teens view themselves as drivers and their actual driving habits. The inability among teens to appreciate how unsafe their common driving behaviors are is alarming, yet not surprising, given the fact that parents and other influencing adults exhibit the same dangerous habits. Ambitious Drivers reminds all parents that we need to be diligent in both telling and showing our children the safest way to drive.
Ambitious Drivers driving courses give equal importance to theoretical and practical training. Contact Ambitious Drivers today to schedule your driving classes. (416) 293-6500

A six month driving ban was imposed on a Portadown man last Wednesday at Craigavon Magistrates Court.
Jamie Christopher Reid (29), Churchill Park, Portadown, was also fined £400 for not having insurance and ordered to pay a £15 offender's levy.
The court heard the offence came to light when he was stopped at a vehicle checkpoint on the Dobbin Road, Portadown, on March 24.
He told police: "I have to get it."
A fixed penalty was offered but this was not paid.
District Judge, Mrs Bernie Kelly, recorded a conviction against the defendant.

The production of whole electric machines, or of parts of them, is the main activity of our company.
Let us analyze in detail the most important aspects of the production of the most requested electromechanic machines:
Stator: Frame
The frame is made from high quality steel sheets, which are welded and stiffened by a suitable number of longitudinal and transversal ribs. The inside of the stator frame is a part of the cooling ducts, therefore the existing ribs are arranged in order to allow an optimum air flow. If necessary, the frame inside is coated with acoustic insulation panels in order to reduce noise in the engine room.
Stator: Magnetic core
The pack or magnetic core is made from low loss digit laminations, which are duly trimmed and insulated on both sides. The slots of the magnetic core are of an open kind and the profile of the tooth laminations will be as such to ensure the utmost tightness of the press-winding wedges as regards radius stresses. Groups of laminations are joined together in order to form differet elementary packs of which the magnetic core consists. Between the different small packs a suitable number of spacers is inserted, in order to create channels having the function of cooling the small pack and the stator winding, as well as limited load losses. The magnetic core is anchored between plates under pressure and is fixed to the frame by dovetails or similar devices.
Stator: winding
The stator winding is of the short, double layer pitch kind. The turn is made from electrolytic, drawn, annealed copper straps with rounded edges and suitably insulated. The straps are not so thick, in order to reduce the losses due to power density. It is possible to carry out stator winding in two ways:
- Global VPI
Porous tapes are used which, during the vacuum impregnation process, absorb the injected resin which then fills all the slots, in order to give compactedness and resistance to insulation. The advantages of this technology are the speed of the process and its low cost. Unfortunately, since it is a global impregnation, after such an operation, it is not possible to intervene (tests, repairs, replacements,etc.) on one coil, since that the whole winding has become an only unit.
- Resin Rich
Tapes pre-impregnated with resin are used. When during thermo-pressing procedure of the active sides of the coil, the resin comes out, it fills all the air pockets and gives compactedness and electrical resistance to insulation. The advantages of this technology are represented by the possibilità of intervening, if it is necessary, on each single coil (tests, repairs, replacements, etc.),since that each single coil is thermo-pressed and insulated.
Rotor: Shaft
The rotor shaft is made from a forged or rolled section, in order thatit has got mechanic and magnetic characteristics. All the materials of which it is made are carefully selected, in order to resist the biggest stresses that can occur, because of centrifugal force, during conditions of runaway speed. For the mechanic sizing of the shaft analyses of the critical torsional and flexural frequences are carried out.
Rotor: poles
Poles consist of trimmed steel laminations, having high mechanic and magnetic characteristics, the thickness of which is suitable for the machine characteristics.
Rotor: winding
Rotor winding consists of electroytic copper straps. Turns are obtained from the brazing of copper dishes, while the insulation between the coil turns is represented by interlayers of twin-enamelled Nomex. Coils are suitably processed and hot pressed before assembling, in order to make them be compact and to avoid sags even at utmost stresses due to runaway speed. If necessary, coils can have a suitable number of projecting turns, in order to increase the surface of thermal exchange between copper and cooling fluid. Coil assembling on the polar pack is carried out in order to ensure a perfect insulation between copper and core.
Rotor: bearings
Bearings will be able to bear the weight of all the rotating parts of the machine and any possible residual thrust of it and of the corresponding hydraulic turbine. Bearings are of the white metal kind (friction)or of the roller (rolling) kind, with autonomous lubrication in oil or grease bath, and are provided with rigid seals, made from a material resistant to corrosion and suitable for the degree of protection required. All the active parts of the supports are assembled in a caisson.

Namely, the theme of the discussion was "what not to write".
While there are exceptions to all of these, all of these are stuff I have a bone to pick with. All but the first one apply to one book I really disliked (guess which one. I dare you), but this is a generally full list I got out from the discussion. All were from my Twitter, @chihuahuazero:
- Whitewashing the past=big no-no.
- What not to do: Make the protag unlikable AND boring.
#WhatNotToWrite? Don't wait until the end for us to care a little about the protag. #WhatNotToWrite? Make the antag more interesting than the protag. #WhatNotToDo? Have every character except the protag's little sis [be] unlikable. #WhatNotToDo? Never solve ANY of the injustices presented in the book. #WhatNotToDo? Have the protag not have a high point of reference in the beginning of a tragedy. #WhatNotToDo? Be too risky with a 2nd person story. You're already on thin ice [for most readers]. #WhatNotToDo? Maintain the same kind of mood for most of the story.
The book these were from wasn't written by someone experienced enough. It's appeal was in a more experimental, lit-fic place.
YOUR TURN: Do you have any tips on what NOT to do in writing?
(Note: This post was written in about twelve minutes. I would've done it faster if I wasn't keeping one ear onto "Evanescence").

Hi I'm Kellie
I'm a Mormon.
About Me
I am a wife and a full time mom of two busy little kids and I truly enjoy this hectic and memorable stage in my life. When I need some "me" time, I enjoy snuggling up on my couch with a cup of cocoa and watching Anne of Green Gables or Pride and Prejudice. I know. . . I am such a girl. I love crisp fall days, long summer evenings and and the sound of my husband and kids laughing. Especially when they are laughing together.
Why I am a Mormon
I have always felt a desire to be close to God. Even when I was a little girl I can recall sweet little moments when I knew God was aware of me and loved me. I can also recall times when I felt like I was not behaving in a way that was pleasing to Him, and even then, I felt his love. At age 19 I had such a desire to find the meaning of life and to find out who God really was and how I fit in the picture. I looked into all types of religions and all types of gods and theories but still had a craving to find something that felt right. Years back a friend had given me a Book of Mormon which I graciously accepted and then placed it on my book shelf to collect dust. During my search for understanding I purposefully did not look at the Book of Mormon because I did not necessarily want to be a "Mormon". One day I decided to open it up and read it. To my great surprise, even though I had only read a few chapters, my feeling of longing was gone. I guess the best way to describe my feelings are that I felt like I was finally home.
How I live my faith
I live my faith each day by trying to be the kind of mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend and member of this great church that I know my Father in heaven would want me to be. I enjoy praying daily and going to church. I live my faith by trying to remember Jesus in all that I do and trying to be more like Him each day. I truly am the happiest when I am striving live my life this way and I feel very blessed to have been given the knowledge of my loving Father in heaven and His great plan of happiness.

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Brazilian shares finished lower Friday, hurt by sharp declines in two exporters following disclosures about their hefty losses from foreign-exchange operations. Mexican shares also fell as investors tracked intense negotiations for a U.S. financial-sector bailout.
Brazil's Bovespa fell 2% to end at 50,782.99.
Shares of Sadia SDA, +3.30% and Aracruz Celulose ARA, +5.65% fronted the decline. Aracruz said it lost an undisclosed amount of money from currency-linked operations, and shares dropped 17%.
Sadia plunged 35% after the meatpacker said it would post an estimated third-quarter loss of $760 million reals ($406 million) on its long-dollar exposure in the foreign-currency market.
The loss amounts to the company's expected profit for 2008, said Citigroup, which downgraded Sadia's rating to sell.
"We believe that this huge loss, based on an aggressive financial exposure (much beyond the company's core activities), should increase investor's risk perception about Sadia's financial operations," wrote analysts at Citi.
UBS Pactual also downgraded its rating to sell.
"Importantly, we believe this is company specific, not sector specific," the broker said in a research note.
Shares of rival Perdigao PDA, -6.10% fell 5.7%, but JBS SA escaped losses and rose 2%.
Stock in pulp & paper company Votorantim Celulose dropped 11%.
Sadia said it has fired its chief financial officer and Aracruz said its CFO has offered to resign.
Meanwhile, market heavyweight Petrobras PBR, +0.18% fell 2.4%, tracking a 1.1% decline in crude-oil prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Mining firm Companhia Vale do Rio Doce RIO, +1.55% declined 3.7%.
Mexico's IPC finished off session lows, but still logged a decline of 0.2% to 25,593.77. The index has lost ground four out of the last five sessions.
Market players awaited news about progress on a $700 billion proposal aimed at rescuing shaky financial markets. The benchmark rose on Thursday after U.S. lawmakers said they had reached a tentative deal on the plan, but talks collapsed later in the day.
Late Friday, Congressional Democrats and President Bush the plan was moving closer to approval.
Also putting pressure on Mexican stocks was a downward revision of U.S. gross domestic product for the second quarter by the Commerce Department, to 2.8% from a previous estimate of 3.3%.

Dynamical invariants and parameter space structures for rational maps
Dynamical invariants and parameter space structures for rational maps - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
For parametrized families of dynamical systems, two major goals are classifying the systems up to topological conjugacy, and understanding the structure of the bifurcation locus. The family Fλ = z^n + λ-z^d gives a 1-parameter, n+d degree family of rational maps of the Riemann sphere, which arise as singular perturbations of the polynomial z^n. This work presents several results related to these goals for the family Fλ, particularly regarding a structure of -necklaces- in the λ parameter plane. This structure consists of infinitely many simple closed curves which surround the origin, and which contain postcritically finite parameters of two types: superstable parameters and escape time Sierpinski parameters. First, we derive a dynamical invariant to distinguish the conjugacy classes among the superstable parameters on a given necklace, and to count the number of conjugacy classes. Second, we prove the existence of a deeper fractal system of -subnecklaces,- wherein the escape time Sierpinski parameters on the previously known necklaces are themselves surrounded by infinitely many necklaces.

Retirees worried about income future
Now that the election is over, Illinois lawmakers are expected to shift their focus back to the huge budget deficit that's been plaguing the state. The topic may be an issue during the lame-duck session, which starts in January.
That's drawn the attention of advocates for Illinois residents who are near retirement age.
AARP Illinois advocacy and outreach manager Ryan Gruenenfelder said some lawmakers and special interest groups have proposed putting a tax on retirement income as a way to solve the $8 billion deficit.
He said a recent poll by AARP showed overwhelming opposition to that idea.
"Nearly nine in 10 of those 50-plus opposed a proposal to tax retirement income," he said. "Sixty percent of them said they would consider moving to another state if Illinois starts taxing retirement income."
Almost all of those polled said they consider a lack of cooperation among Illinois elected officials as the reason there's been no fix to the state's budgetary woes. About two-thirds said state and local taxes are already too high.
Gruenenfelder said many retirees rely solely on Social Security, or have a small pension or retirement savings plan. There are also those who are having to care for loved ones, including raising their grandchildren, and are struggling to pay for food, housing and doctor visits.
"Medical costs are higher for retirees than for most other groups because they are the age that they are and they tend to have more medical concerns," he said. "Other issues are, many of them are living on a fixed income and they have a limited ability to rejoin the workforce."
Gruenenfelder suggested people let their elected officials know if they agree that retirees shouldn't have to be the ones to solve the state's budget mess.
He urged a comprehensive solution to the Illinois crisis, and said it's disconcerting that lawmakers aren't talking about the issue.
"We wonder if the legislative leaders are meeting behind closed doors and coming up with a plan that the general public does not know about," he said. "We do not want a budget proposal to end up on the legislative floor without the voices of Illinoisans."

Death of Henry Knox
On October 25, 1806, Henry Knox died near Thomaston, Massachusetts (present-day Maine).
Henry Knox was born on July 25, 1750, in Boston, Massachusetts. After his father abandoned the family, Henry, the family's oldest son, left school and took a job as a clerk in a bookstore. The shop's owner, Nicholas Bowes, became a father figure to Knox. But Knox was also caught up in Boston's street gangs, becoming one of his neighborhood's best fighters. Then one day he witnessed an impressive military demonstration and decided to join his local artillery company at age 18.

To understand how the input impedance determined at the throat correlates with changes in the dynamic characteristics of the airways, a simplified 5-lobe model is developed and simulated. The model takes into account some realistic conditions such as varying cross-sectional areas, flexible wall properties and branching. The lobe terminal impedances are implemented in the model to predict the input impedance at the throat. The effects of airway constrictions and wall eleatance variations on this impedance are determined for a range of frequencies. It is concluded that the developed model is capable of predicting various physiological changes in the airway passages.

I'm telling you! It's dangerous out there gathering pears!!!
those hard pears hit you in the head they just about knock you out!! I
swear I have a bruise on the back of my right shoulder where one got me
this evening...I haven't look yet, but I KNOW that there's a bruise!!
Believe me!
out early the other morning to gather up what hit the ground and still
had my glasses on (I wear contact lenses 99% of my waking hours)...pear
hits me in the face and hits my glasses. I looked around and couldn't
see out of the left lens. The lens was on the ground.
I need a
hard hat and a pair of safety glasses just to gather pears! You
know...a Kevlar vest might be needed...think I'll talk to one of the
deputies at work. Or maybe just take the Smith & Wesson out and
start target practice on those little hard devils!!!
Wednesday Bruise Update:
Well I NEVER! I just knew that there'd be a bruise on my shoulder. Harumphf. No sign of being in battle with a pear tree at all! How do you like them...pears?! ;-)

We make every effort to keep a clean and healthy environment for our dogs . All mommy dogs are treated as part of our family. We do not have more dogs than we can handle at any given time. Our breeding dogs are only with us when they are breeding or raising their pups. Some do reside with us, but most are in guardian homes.
Our breeding program is unique.
We hope we can change the way people breed dogs. We know many of you have never heard of this breeding concept before. But we feel it is the best way to run a breeding program. We want our dogs to have the best and in turn our customers will have a happy, healthy, and well socialized puppy. We know first hand how scary adopting a puppy can be. There are thousands of unethical breeders out there and we want you to now you have someone you can trust right here.
We have a unique relationship with each Guardian Family.
Our Guardian Families are really incredible people with big hearts. They are always enthusiastic about their dogs and each of them believes their dog is the "Best"!
I am really happy I can share these dogs and these experiences with them. We appreciate the loving environment they provide. We know they have all put so much love in raising and training their dogs.
We hope many of you will consider being a Guardian Home too! Please let us know if you would be interested in becoming a Guardian Home.
Before we place a puppy in a Guardian Home we make sure the temperament and health is excellent. We will not keep a dog for our breeding program that we would not want to raise in our home ourselves. Temperaments in general are ideal but we take extra precautions to make sure our breeding dogs are well rounded and good natured. Child friendly dogs are very important to us!
We want each and every dog to have the socialization needed to become apart of a family.
We pride ourselves on making sure each and every dog we own is a part of OUR family.
We strive to breed for temperament, health, and beauty. All parents are ACC (American Cockapoo Club) registered.
We do not breed any dogs that are not AKC provable and that we do not have access to the pedigree.
We do not just "throw" a Cocker and Poodle together. Not every poodle male should be bred to every Cocker female. This is why we have a variety of males with different bloodlines. We are concentrating mainly on Multigenerational Cockapoos with some first generations thrown in.
Just like when breeding purebreds, you have to pay attention to body structure, health, coat type, head type, eye placement, and TEMPERAMENT.
We do a lot of research on the dogs behind our pedigrees and strive to find the best combination. When we find this, we continue the same combo every time. You will see some repeat breedings, this means we found that winning combo.
When you purchase a puppy from us, we are attached at the hip! Remember, we will always take our babies back, no questions asked!
Puppies are whelped in a bedroom where they are handled from birth.
All of our puppies are temperament tested prior to placing in new homes.
We do provide a two year written genetic health guarantee (Sale contract specifies conditions).
We have puppies that range in size from mini size (15-25 lbs) and on to standard size (26-50 lbs) We do our best to provide you with what you are looking for in the perfect pet.
Just because you want a puppy, does not mean we will sell you one. You must be approved before we decide to let one of our babies go with you.
Starting Janurary 1, 2008.
If you write a check it can be for the deposit only
As the saying goes, one ruins it for the rest, so is the case here.
We can only accept checks for deposits, not for the remaining balance. You can use PAYPAL to pay by check as well and that would be fine.
To Order NuVet Suppliments please call
code 86382 for discount
****Due to puppy buyers not following directions, as of Jan 1 2007, when you buy a puppy from us we will REQUIRE the use of this suppliment or the two year health guarantee is null and void.****
Dog Training tips for socializing your dog:
Once your dog is fully immunized you should have them on 7 different types of surfaces, take them to 7 different environments, have 7 different size humans give them a treat, take them around 7 odd shaped objects and have them hear 7 different sounds and have a motorcycle as one of the goals for the sound socialization. These exercises will teach them social skills as well as skill to deal with strange environments, sounds etc...

2018 Volkswagen Tiguan Review: Selling Out For Mainstream Sales
– Los Angeles, California
Remember the first time you heard your favorite band on the radio? I know the feeling, it's hard when you realize that what you thought was oh-so-cool is actually now part of the mainstream. A decade ago, compact crossovers were no more than niche vehicles, only finding homes with a small percentage of buyers. Now, they're all the rage. If a car company wants to succeed – especially in America – it has to be on top of its small CUV game.
That's why the Volkswagen Tiguan you see here is so vastly different than the model it replaces (though if you really hate it, VW will still sell you the old one). It's a lot bigger and a lot softer, and honestly, that makes it a lot more approachable. VW is hoping this Tig will appeal to a much larger swath of American CUV shoppers, and as far as I'm concerned, it should. But what the 2018 Tiguan gains in practicality and mass-market appeal, it loses in behind-the-wheel verve. For better or worse, the once-plucky little Tiguan now plunges right into the heart of the crossover-hungry mainstream. It used to be unique, and now it's just trying to be a better Nissan Rogue.
All grown up. While the old Tiguan looked a bit cartoonish, the new one trades too-cute features for refined maturity. Even in this shade of Habanero Orange, the Tig is handsome. Upscale, too, what with the full-LED headlights and taillights and 19-inch dark-finish alloy wheels of this SEL Premium test car. It's like a five-eighths scale Atla...
