Dragon Age 2: Shadows Befalling Ch 22Aska's POVDragon Age 2: Shadows Befalling Ch 22 by lblander
That was a tough fight. Almost everyone in the bar took part of it. When I heard Isabella yell barfight I instantly got into action with Bratu and the others. Everyone was fighting, except Merrill. Poor girl just couldn't figure out what was going on. It finally calmed down a bit when Donnic and the guards came in the bar.
Before the end of the fight I had at least two bottles of rum broken over my head. Luckily, I only had a cut above my left eye so I wasn't really hurt, just had a little headache. My hair was sticking to my face and I smelled horrible, the alcohol stinging my cut a bit.
I looked around to see if everyone else was alright. Aveline was with Donnic reassuring him she was alright. Sebastian was helping the barmaidens clean up the place a bit. Isabella was in a corner with Bratu and Merrill, probably trying to explain to the later what had happened. Zevran was busy picking through the unconscious participants while Anders was healing some of t
Dragon Age 2: Rogue Feelings Chapter 21As soon as I exited the saloon and rounded the corner I couldn't hold it anymore. I puked so much I thought one of my organs was going to come out next. As I leaned over, balancing with one hand on my knee and the other one the wall, I tried to gather some air in my lungs before another bout was going to occur.Dragon Age 2: Rogue Feelings Chapter 21 by lblander
Suddenly, I felt a hand on the middle of my back so I looked over my shoulder and saw that it was Zevran. He had a smile on his face, but in his eyes he had a look of worry,
"So you can't hold your alcohol? Wish I had known that sooner."
I would have answered him if not for the puking session starting again. As I was doing so I felt Zevran gently gathering my hair in his hand and holding it back from my face; his other hand gently rubbing my back. I wouldn't have figured Zevran one for comforting people in this particular situation, but the feeling that I got from him was that he had done this before…and it felt protective, safe. Sure we had
Skyrim Chapter 2: AwakeningAs I slowly came back into consciousness, I could hear a slow crackling near me; something like a fireplace. The inside of my body wasn't feeling like before when I felt I was on fire, but I wasn't feeling the chill of snow that I did before. As I opened my eyes I realized I was inside a room so I slowly looked around studying my surroundings.Skyrim Chapter 2: Awakening by lblander
It was a nice little room. It looked a little weird to me though. For some reason it just seemed older than the buildings I was somehow used to. It had stonewalls, tapestries and furs, weapon racks, wooden furniture, even the clothing hanging in an old wooden closet looked different. This was when I started freaking out a bit. As I sat up, trying to understand what had happened to me, I realized I was lying on a bed…well I guessed I was. The 'mattress' was soft, almost fur like, but it felt like it had hay in it. The comforter was the same way, but a lot fluffier. That was when I noticed something even weirder.

HENLEY, ENGLAND – The Rutgers heavyweight varsity eight won its first race at the Henley Royal Regatta July 4 on the Thames River, defeating Dartmouth by one and one-quarter lengths.
Rutgers is one of three American schools, and one of nine crews overall, competing for the Ladies' Challenge Plate, which is awarded for the races conducted for the highest level of college or club crews that are not National Teams or Olympic crews. The Scarlet Knight boat was rowed by:
Bow Christopher Graves (2004; Northfield, NJ)
2 Mark Hayden (2003; Wexford, PA)
3 Michael Dori (2003; West Windsor, NJ)
4 Collin Jesberger (2004; Chalfont, PA)
5 Nathan Carter (2005; Springfield, VA)
6 Fred Bidrawn (2005; Mt. Holly, NJ)
7 Samual Stitt (2004; McLean, VA)
8 James Green (2004; Erdenheim, PA)
Cox Ned DelGuercio (2005; Media, PA)
RU will next take on Leander Club at 3:00 p.m. on July 5.
The Henley Regatta was first held in 1839 and has been held annually ever since, except during the two World Wars. The popularity and interest in the Regatta has steadily grown, evolving from a single-day event in 1839 to the current five-day format in 1986. In 1851, H.R.H. Prince Albert became the Regatta's first Royal Patron. Since his death, the reigning Monarch has always consented to become Patron, allowing the Regatta to retain its title of the Henley Royal Regatta.
RU finished its collegiate season with a fifth-place finish in the Petite Final at the IRA National Collegiate Rowing Championships May 29-31 in Camden, NJ.

I have to say Karateka was an awesome game. The bit where you had to take out the flying birds in the corridor was mental. loved the original! Just hope this comes to PC.
Karateka remake shares its new look
1 Oct 2012  by
It was announced back in February that Jordan Mechner (of Prince of Persia fame) was revisiting his first hit, the side-scrolling martial arts fest Karateka, in remake form, for Xbox Live and PlayStation Network. Karateka was originally released on the Apple II computer somewhere around the Renaissance (or maybe 1984) and looked a little something like this:
Excellent, I'm sure you'll agree, but perhaps not quite to the tastes of the videogame enthusiasts of 2012.
As a result of a switcho-changeo redesign, it'll now look more like this when it's released on 14 November:

- Overpriced and underwhelmingH1490Dined on 9/25/2014My steak was overcooked and very expensive for what it was. There was no atmosphere at all in the restaurant and the service was cold and listless. Would never return or recommendSpecial Features:
- JasonOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/21/2014Wonderful food in a remarkable setting. Seafood plateau was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Steak EvereatinvegasDined on 9/20/2014I had the best NY Strip steak ever and my wife had the filet minion and it was also perfect. Our server couldn't have been nicer. He was friendly, efficient and knew how to handle a table as a pro. It was a great all around experience. I was glad it was the place I chose for my wife's birthday dinner. We will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 9/19/2014The food and service were amazing! Everything was cooked to perfection!Special Features:
- excellent steakottjbDined on 9/18/2014One of the top steaks I have ever had, the sides were all very good. Cooked perfectly. Salads were not very good, and had way too much dressing. The one downside to the evening was the service, it was satisfactory, but the waiter was not helpful or very informative, and seemed to be in robot mode. Absolutely no personality , and was somewhat cold. I understand he deals with tourists all day long, but that's the gig... on a side not the food runners were extremely nice and had much more personality. Prices are on par with other top steak houses.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JohnMVIPDined on 9/10/2014The steaks were cooked exactly as we asked and the potatoes romanoff are the best.Special Features:
- OutstandingJeanneDined on 9/6/2014I was looking for a restaurant to take my customers while at a conference in Las Vegas. The staff was very accommodating and the food was delicious! Definitely will go back on my next trip to Vegas!Special Features:
- Expensive but worth the investmentDirectinfoDined on 9/3/2014Everything we ordered was excellent. We went on a Wednesday night so was probably a little less hectic than would normally be but the steak was amazing. We each had the bone in ribeye. Seasoned perfectly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AwesomeVegas1NightDined on 9/3/2014Food was great. Steak juicy and you can tell it is all made fresh.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/3/2014all the meat dishes that 5 of us ordered were oversalty!!! when we complained - the waiter said it's shef's style of cooking!!! one of us couldn't eat it at all and asked for another filet without salt at all - and got the same salty dish!!! Side order of oversalty mushrooms were unedible. the service was exellent!
- Excellent Dining ExperienceFoodLoverDined on 9/1/2014From walking in to walking out! We had a reservation and were seated as soon as we arrived. The wait staff was very knowledgeable regarding specials, and menu items. Our water glasses never got to half full. The food was cooked to perfection, and our leftovers were packed to stay fresh. They made a great breakfast!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LuluDined on 8/31/2014We were expecting a wonderful dinner. The Wedge salad and bread were good. The Lobster Bisque was just ok. The surf and turf was the worse I've had. Lobster was tough, and filet was ok. The 20ounce Rib Eye was tough and very disappointing. Won't be back..
- Delish!MsJazzyMoiDined on 8/30/2014This is now my favorite! The service as great and the food was excellent!Special Features:
- IncredibleOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014We had what was probably the best meal we've ever had in our lives. We also spent more on that meal than we ever had before, but it was worth every penny.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always Superb!brooksryanDined on 8/29/2014My third time to visit and I will continue to do so more each time I'm in Vegas. It's such good food!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The food was amazing!!!!OneHappyCustomerDined on 8/28/2014My experience at the strip house was amzaing, i loved having gentlemen cater to my needs, it was refreshing. Most places where i ate had waitress with a dress code for short dresses and cleavage. They were attentative and treated us (me, mom and aunty) with the utmost respect. I have suggested to friends and family to eat at your establishment when they vacation at Las Vegas. It was mom's birthday, my aunty went to the little girls room our waiter asked my aunt what my moms name was and while my mom and I were discussing if we should see the dessert menu our waiter showed up with a 26 layer chocolate cake with a lite candle wishing mom a happy birthday. It was a fitting ending to mom's 65th birthday :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprise at Planet Hollywood!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/28/2014The food here was quite good and relatively inexpensive given that it's a steakhouse in Vegas. As entrees we had the filets and lobster which were perfectly prepared. The sides were potatoes Romanoff and creamed spinach with bacon, both outstanding. The service was excellent but the kitchen was slow. Took 40 minutes to see food. This was odd since the place was only 15 per cent full. Still, the food was worth the wait.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sarah's 30thxtravelagentBDined on 8/27/2014The food was excellent. The service was outstanding. John was our waiter and he helped us with our decisions. I would go there again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another Great Experience!Anthony1022Dined on 8/26/2014This is the 6th or 7th time I have dined at the Strip House in Las Vegas, and I must say that this experience was the best yet! Service was excellent, the meal was wonderful, and the atmosphere was terrific. It was a birthday dinner for my girlfriend and the waiter brought a free piece of chocolate cake to the table with a lit candle for her. It was such a romantic dinner. Thanks for making that night memorable for us!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The Strip House is our favorite!KellemarsalisDined on 8/26/2014We visited the Strip House for the fifth year in a row while visiting Las Vegas. It never disappoints. We absolutely love it. The steaks are amazing and the macaroni and cheese is a must. I highly recommend this restaurant for romantic dinner, a group of friends or just about everything in between.Special Features:
- Poor Experience on Choice of FoodKathiDined on 8/24/2014Salmon Should NOT be paired with cauliflower. The salmon was good but not the mixture of vegetables that the salmon was resting on.
- Good Steak10yearanniversaryDined on 8/23/2014Food is very good and would recommend the steak. They apply a salt & pepper crust which adds a fantastic touch. Good selection of vegetables and the serving staff are very knowledgeable of the menu & specials.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cooked to Perfection!TwinCitiesDined on 8/23/2014As a group were ordered a mix of seafood (lobster and salmon) along several filets of different cooking preferences. Our rare, med-rare and well done (yes, I know) requests were all perfect. The seafood textures were also spot-on. We came in with high expectations and were not disappointed! The service by Brian was also wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Empty place, but good steakEatery84VIPDined on 8/20/2014Place was basically empty at 9 pm, so a little weird, but steak was good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Chocolate Cake in VegasJoespaceWilsonDined on 8/18/2014We had dinner somewhere else and at the last minute decided to have dessert here because of TripAdvisor's suggestion that Strip House's chocolate cake was the best in Las Vegas. Their review was absolutely correct. It took my fiancé and I three days to eat this piece of heaven.Special Features:
- Las Vegas GemFoodieinCLEDined on 8/18/2014Totally enjoyed our dinner here. Bartender was exceptional - food and service as well. The crabcake scrumptious appetizer along with beet salad! While this is a steak house - I enjoyed the salmon. We topped it off with Baked Alaska, fabulousSpecial Features:
- Nice place for a special dinnerAiramairDined on 8/16/2014We had dinner in Strip house on the birthday of my husband. The steaks are really great although the choice is not great. Side dishes are perfect. And after all they are bringing you extremely huge piece of chocolate cheesecake - we couldn't make it. Definitely recommend the placeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SteakMonaLisa2323Dined on 8/16/2014My steak was dry and tasteless. The lobster bisque had no lobster in it nor any flavor.Special Features:
- Excellent Surprise!dining4funDined on 8/15/2014Great food...filet and lobster was fabulous! Absolutely loved the creamed spinach. Will definitely go back when visiting Vegas again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Don't waste your moneyPoohbearDined on 8/15/2014Very over expensive, eat outside the hotel in the mall. Better quality, service and food at the mall, people who want you there, very dark, loads of pictures on the wall but could not see them.
- Strip HouseHouckfamDined on 8/13/2014This was our 2nd visit to Strip House, and it was just as great as our first visit. The service is exceptional--they really know the menu, and offer great suggestions. The food is wonderful, and the cocktail menu always has something fun to try. We will definitely go back each time we're in Vegas.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingJoe18705Dined on 8/12/2014When I go to a steakhouse, I go for the steak. The filet I had here could very well be the best steak I ever had...ever!! No joke. It was amazing. Melted in our mouth. We had a great time. The waiter was very personable, the wine list is nice, the side dishes were delicious. It is worth the trip.Special Features:
- Excellent Food/ServiceVegas4foodDined on 8/10/2014After reading reviews about strip house, I was looking forward to it. We had a reservation at 7. When we arrived we were seated immediately. There was only a couple tables full. The food was the best I've had in vegas yet. The side orders are big enough to split between 3 people. Our server was very quick, and very knowledgable about the wine list. I would recommend this resturant to anyone looking for a nice dinner out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great steaks, nice atmosphere...butpdxsbDined on 8/7/2014The meal and service was wonderful, however, the atmosphere would be much better if they asked guests to silence their phones before entering. An otherwise lovely dinner was disturbed by a woman's constant text tones.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very good food. Best ever!RoryDined on 8/3/2014Very good food! Best we can ever recall eating! Great flavor in everything. Steaks were great. Potatoe side dish was fantastic. Sauce for Asparagus and pasta sauce were both phenomenal. Even the bread and appetizers were great tasting. Too good to be true.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- momknowsbestDined on 8/1/2014The food was delicious, the service was attentive i.e. great! The prices were worth the occasion. Thank you for a good time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The Strip HouseOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/31/2014A simply outstanding place to go for that special occasion - and / or for a meal that's a cut above the rest. It's quiet, it's mood-ambient, meaning dimmed lights, with lush burgundy interior. A place to go when you want that meal with wine and quiet conversation. It's not cheap, - but you certainly get what you pay for. It was quite simply the best prepared, and best tasting rib-eye that I have ever had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- grittyshakerVIPDined on 7/25/2014Strip House is a solid choice (at the very least). The lobster bisque with couscous and a dollop of creme fraiche was outstanding, my filet was perfectly cooked and the goose fat potatoes were a new twist on an old starch. Planet Hollywood may not have the cachet of some its Strip neighbors (Aria, Bellagio, etc.) but Strip House doesn't take a back seat to any of those resorts' steakhouses.Special Features:
- Fantastic dinnerVegassuperb60Dined on 7/20/2014Brett was excellent waiter bus boy all deserts were amazing food excellent. Drinks excellent.Special Features:
- Good but not greatbramageDined on 7/20/2014The Striphouse was good, but not great and considering the price, that is big a disappointment. The garlic bread was sitting in a blue cheese fondeu which neither of us remember seeing on the menu. The caesar salad was good, although very large. As for the main courses, they were very uneven. I got the 12 ounce filet ordered medium rare and it was good, but not great. It was cooked well enough although the crusting they used was right on the edge of overpowering the steak itself. My girlfriend got the steak and lobster special ordered medium and her entire entree was overcooked to some extent. The lobster was over to the point of being rubber like and the steak was medium well. The deserts were very good, but HUGE.Special Features:

I hung out with Jon Barthmus(left) and Patrick Marsceill of Sun Airway at Mahogany On Walnut in late January to do a story for JUMP Magazine. You can read the story HERE. They play in Philly tonight!
Philadelphia, PA - 01/22/2011
Sun Airway will play one of the best venues in Philly tonight (the Sanctuary of the First Unitarian Church) and you should go, if you live in the city. What else are you going to do? It's the perfect venue for their dream-pop tunes and their crazy light show.
The video above was directed by Ricardo Rivera/ KLIP Collective, whose also the mastermind behind 'their crazy light show'.
I never ask to get my picture taken with artists I interview, but I couldn't resist getting my picture taken with Questlove. I didn't know what to do so I just cheesed it really hard.
I had the chance to interview Questlove of The Roots a few weeks ago. I was only suppose to have five minutes with him, but we ended up talking for 10 minutes or so. He was a chill dude and really enjoyed the questions I had for him. We chatted about a homeless vegetarian, The Roots Picnic, the Dirty Projectors and a few other things. Check it out HERE.
The photo above is Questo in front of just a portion of his vinyl collection.
St Vincent(aka Annie Clark) announced earlier today that she will release a new record Strange Mercy via 4AD on September 12th. I don't know about you, but I think that's amazing news. Get more details about the record HERE.
The photo above is from her show in the Sanctuary of the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia which happened in February of 2010.
I saw Maine native, Brooklyn based Luke Rathborne open for Devendra Banhart at the TLA in Philly back in 2009. He put on a great performance with a full string band. I'm glad to see that he's still making music and living his dream. He just released a double EP. Check it out HERE or listen to a track below.

Here's another outtake from the Nicos Gun photoshoot…
Here's an outtake from a photoshoot I recently did with Nicos Gun for JUMP Magazine. I wrote a story about these dudes that you'll be able to read this Friday! Pretty excited for it come out and to share it with the world.
Andy Black(left) and Barney Cortez of Nicos Gun working out a guitar part in their practice space. The space is actually the studio of The Disco Biscuits, who allow them to practice there since Harry Zelnick, Nicos Gun's drummer, produced the Biscuits most recent record. Check out more photos from their practice session HERE.

Women overland riding suit - what are you wearing?
I used to have a "Bavarian piece of crap" that I bought years ago for touring. It started disintegrating from day 1. :censored:
I am after a touring suit, textile not leather, that would be more or less adequate for 4 seasons. I've been looking for a long time!
Am I the only woman to find that shops stock mainly rubbish for women? And why oh why oh why add baby pink everywhere???????!!!!! :taz:
Anyhow, if you have any suggestions. What are you ladies wearing on the bike when touring?
I like the Rev-it turbine jacket and pants in grey/silver, but no one this side of the solar system seems to stock any.
Hein Gericke used to have nice stuff for women once upon a time. But not anymore. And all is black black black (with the occasional sickening baby pink thrown in) , for god sake I am not going to my funeral, I want to have fun on a bike not look like I just buried my cat!!
I'm thinking maybe we should start a petition to manufacturers / stores to complain of awful suits and poor choice! And ask to ban baby pink!!! :ban:
I am many things but certainly am no lady!:rofl:
Everything seems to be unisex these days-
Look up "Rukka Air-Vantage"
To the human eye - it's black
To the sun - it's white :thumbup1: so highlky reflective and you don't 'cook' in there-
And as belt and braces when it's cold/chucking/poor viz, the Halvarssons Fluo jacket- sorry no pink!
Well if I had the body shape of a boy I would fit on unisex, but as I have more of a woman body shape!
The trousers won't get past my hips or if they do the waist is so huge there is no way I can keep the trousers up. They tend also to be 20 cm too long.
Then we have the unisex jackets. Where I am expected to be flat chested and have no hips. Hmmm...
I am more after a touring suit like there are so many for the guys. Not black, with vents, well designed for multi-season, with pockets, with a removable gore-tex or similar liner, to keep me dry when it rains. Why is it so hard? :(
Thanks for suggestion anyway! Keep it coming!
My wife and I had a hell of a time finding jacket and pants that would fit her. I finally found a set in Vancouver at a dealership - Olympia Womens AirGlide mesh in silver. They fit quite well except for the sleeves, which we've had shortened and the pant legs - they're just a little long too.
Recently we found a Tourmaster Transition2 Womans vented jacket that also fits her well. She also had the sleeves shortened on this jacket, which is also silver. There were some other colours as well, including tan.
No pink for her.
Overland clothes for Women
Hi Maria,
I am so with you on the clothes for women...what's up with that? I heard 20% of new riders are women so you'd think that the powers that be would be taking advantage of our stylish concerns! Of course, I'm in the US so maybe our European neighbors have more choices??? (please chime in ladies!)
So...I had to have something safe to wear and found the Rev'it line with the Siren Jacket and Sand Pants. The red jacket was for safety and sand pants were for the sun. Obviously, this is not my dream outfit. I loved the fit of the Dainese green textile jacket, but the pants only came in black. We're planning on traveling in the heat and I really didn't want black.
Does anyone know what Lois wore in Africa?
...found one!
after 30 years of riding and the last 7 on a RTW I have had many problems with suits for the female cut! I am a typical female shape....and also shortish at 5'3".....
however after having the BMW rally 1 and 2 and also Hein Gericke....I have found THE suit. Well - its a suit that fits my riding which is mainly off-road, in the dirt, and it has to be suitable to cover ALL weather conditions as I am on the road all the time and can only carry one suit.
the new BMW Trailguard. yep - a BMW suit that actually fits the female shape and someone has actually thought about the differences!! It is comfortable and copes with all types of weather conditions and looks good too!
go have a look - yes its $$ but after 18 months of hard (very hard) wear and tear I have not had any problems. if you are wondering what we are doing and why we need such a durable suit go look at our website.
I am - at last - very happy with what I put on everyday and still feel like a female!!
Hallo Maria! Hey all.
Well I've never had a riding suit, always going for a miss match of whatever (mostly second hand) items I can get hold of at the time, depending on the trip, and its progression
I adore the two items I have at the moment, which are female hein gericke trousers that I got for £10 off ebay. They are fitted (I hate the beached whale look) and have zips below the knees to transform them into shorts.
The jacket I got was $50 (also off ebay) - by "First Gear". Very popular in the States. Apart from the pockets being designed by an absolute numpty the jacket absolutely ROCKS! I love it (fitted, warm, dry, cool). And in a year on the road in snow and a lot of rain it kept me 100% dry. Let me say that again - 100% dry! The liner jacket actually looks pretty cool as a day coat as well.
I am pretty sure they do a suit called "Kilamanjaro", which you could look at. My jacket was from this design. They do it in yellow or purple (and black) I think. Check it out.
Good luck. And let us know.
Char x
hmm... BMW.... Well Lisa, I know your experience with them is different from mine....where should I start. Let's just say with the husband we used to have BMW bikes, BMW suits and I had BMW boots. I started as a very enthusiatic BMW customer.
We did about 24,000 miles around South America. Never, EVER EVER again will I buy anything with a BMW logo on it. As simple as that.
Not only the gear we bought was awful, sh*t poor quality, bad stitches breaking, very low quality zips breaking within weeks of buying the suits, leaking boots since day one, we also had shoddy repairs, in SA or UK, and absolutely dreadful customer services once you start complaining that the gear is actually faulty/poor quality....
Not fun to spend a year with leaking boots in very cold and wet Patagonia/Andes....
Anyhow, my dealings with BMW have been so dreadful that never again.
Hi Charlotte, hope your round the world is going ok? Shame you do not seem to have a blog! Will you do a talk next year at Ripley? (if you're back by then!).
I will check out First Gear suits. I got some kit from the US recently (MX boots and MX trousers) as I couldn't find any decent MX gear in the UK (especially MX Boots, but then that's another story....).
I've been wearing mostly Hein Gericke gear in the UK. Nice stuff and waterproof. I bought the grey jacket to handle the heat but had to go with black trousers as that was what I could get cheap on eBay.
I'm not an unusual shape, standard size 10-12 in most things, and found that the HG stuff fits as well as could be expected if you want to have the pockets and armour that this gear has.
Any sizes that were named for women often dont have pockets so that they look the womanly shape - just not practical.
I bought a pair of BMW City 2 trousers in gray for hot weather riding. Was hard to get the size right for the waist fitment but Medium seemed to do it. However BMW have a very strange idea of proportions as the knee armour was designed for a body with very very short thigh bones and long long shin bones - I had to trim 12cms off the armour for it to bend where my knee was. Eventually I chucked the armour altogether.
And now in the really really hot weather (35+ deg C) I wear a base layer underneath for comfort. Base layers work.
I also hate pink, never never ever wear it. Give me racing red:clap:
It really bugs me that there is better selection in men's wear (code name unisex) so I usually just suck it up and buy unisex gear cause i like the design better.
I am currently sporting the Rev'it Sand Jacket and Pants. The jacket fit seems fine and the pants are typically annoying with the low crotch and awkward fit in the thighs/hip area but I liked the suit so much I figured I could deal with this issues.
I have no experience with the Rev'it women's products but i will probably be looking into buying a pair of their pants for urban/street riding when i get back from South America. They seem to have a pretty good selection of women's fit gear.
I guess not that helpful but I find that European style brands fit tighter so the mens or unisex fit me better.
...always a difficult one. For the past eight years I have had a Hein Gericke jacket which I love and it's still waterproof. It's a men's one as although I'm not big (dress size 8/10), my shoulders are broader than my hips so women's jackets are too tight across the shoulders and down the arms. I use the men's trousers as they have good length and just resign myself to the fact that they are big on the waist.
When I'm travelling overseas (which is quite a lot), I wear leather trousers for a whole variety of reasons, including when I crossed Africa, mainly for the sheer comfort of wearing them for long periods. But I know they are not everyone's choice.:scooter:
gear for women
I have the Rev'it defender pants and jacket and I am very happy with the fit and comfort. The only issue is sleeve length, but that is my issue with any item with sleeves since I have shortish arms. The new Rev'it ventura looks cool too. I just got the Daytona ladystar GTX boots. Fab and makes me 2 inches taller too. So now I am a whopping 5 ft 3! Sara
I came across this the other day over on the dark side, and I thought it might interest you ladies:
Teiz Motorsports introduces first ever Women's motorcycle suit - ADVrider
apparently all still under design, but Teiz stuff is getting some good reports. Hope this helps somehow.
1st thought: it's PINK! Argh. Pass me the bucket! Burgh! :censored:
2d thought: er.... it's a full suit... how am I supposed to have a quick pee? Oh! I have to get the whole thing down my knees... hmmm... I think I will pass on the pleasure!
Thought 3: another crap design by some male designer who hasn't got a clue.....
I would put a icon of smiley banging its head against a wall but could not find any! so only this: :(
Thanks anyway Giacomo for the post! Meant no offence to you! Maybe we should actually get the italilans on board. They know how to design sexy clothes.... why they don't get working on MC clothe sofr women????

I am keen to play with others and so far I have had 2 co-op people drop into my game and the help has been amazing then I have had 2 other random people drop into my game at the same time and one of them killed me.
Is there any way to prevent them from killing me?
I only ask because I am new and I was super annoyed and then they just ran off and did their thing and I was in the middle of something and it stuffed it up for me because I could've used the help and instead I had to exit the game.
Sorry it's long but I just really want to play with others and get the game done.
thanks in advance =]

BATON ROUGE, La. (KNOE 8 News/AP) - The National Society of Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences is returning to LSU.
The LSU chapter of the organization held a kickoff meeting earlier this month.
A news release from LSU's College of Agriculture says an M-A-N-R-R-S chapter existed on campus for years prior to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. But the storm's disruption in Louisiana led to the chapter losing membership. It was no longer active on campus by 2007.
The national organization, chartered in 1986, is dedicated to promoting diversity and networking opportunities for students interested in agriculture, natural resources and related fields.

The recent jobs numbers for Massachusetts paint a paradox: The number of jobs created is up but the joblessness number remains the same. The cause for this is not a puzzle. The divide between available jobs and the people with skills to fill them has grown wider causing higher unemployment and more people living in poverty.
As a recent report released by the Crittenton Women's Union shows, a single parent with two children needs an annual income of $65,880 in Massachusetts to meet their most basic needs. Today, it's harder than ever for a person without a four-year degree to land a job that pays that amount much less build a career that provides a path to the middle class. That's because the economy has changed and with it so have the types of jobs available. The jobs of 25 years ago, that required less education, paid a living wage, and paved the path to the middle class, don't exist anymore.

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Kevin Durant scored 23 points, as the Thunder finished strong to down the 76ers, 92-88, on Wednesday.
Russell Westbrook had 22 points and a season-high 13 rebounds -- seven offensive -- for the Thunder, who closed the game on a 15-4 run to win their sixth straight.
"Westbrook really hurt us on the offensive boards," said Philadelphia coach Doug Collins. "We talked about that going into the game. That guy is a little pit bull and you have to play all 24 seconds of the clock with him."
The 76ers halted a season-long five-game losing streak in Tuesday's rout of the Pistons, but shot just 8-for-27 in the fourth quarter against Oklahoma City to fall for the eighth time in 11 games.
Andre Iguodala and Jrue Holiday had 18 points apiece, while Thaddeus Young added 16 points and nine rebounds in the setback.
Philadelphia was up 84-77 with five minutes to play when Durant hit a long jumper and then a three-pointer to pull the Thunder within two.
Jodie Meeks made it 85-82, sinking a technical free throw after Thunder center Kendrick Perkins shoved Elton Brand post-whistle, but a pair of foul shots from James Harden and one from Durant tied the game with 3:20 to play.
Oklahoma City continued to claim control from the charity stripe, as Serge Ibaka grabbed an offensive rebound, drew the foul and made both free throws for a 87-85 advantage with under two minutes to go.
Perkins' free throw after a Holiday miss stretched the advantage to three and the 76ers failed to convert on several opportunities to pull even in the final minute.
First, Lou Williams missed an open three-pointer with 24 seconds left. Then, Harden was off on a pair of free throws, but Williams turned the ball over on the Sixers' next possession.
Durant made 1-of-2 for a 89-88 lead before Iguodala nailed a corner three- pointer with six seconds to play, marking Philadelphia's first field goal in 12 shots.
Durant was fouled. He made the first and missed the second, but Westbrook snatched the offensive rebound and hit a pair from the foul line to seal the win.
"We have a team full of competitors that really do a great job of getting into the ball and getting into the man and making them miss shots," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks.
Oklahoma City was up 26-24 after one and closed the second on an 8-0 run to take a 53-48 lead into the break.
Philadelphia, though, opened the third with a 15-2 surge, taking a 63-55 lead on Meeks' fastbreak layup. A three-pointer from Daequan Cook and two free throws from Westbrook made it 63-60, but the 76ers held on for a 67-63 advantage after three.
They carried the momentum into the fourth, answering a pair of Harden free throws with seven straight points for a 74-66 lead.
"We're growing, we're learning," said Collins. "It's frustrating but we're going to keep fighting and hopefully we're going to find a way to start winning some of these games."

(Updates shares starting in the fifth paragraph.)
June 29 (Bloomberg) -- Bank of America Corp. is settling for a bigger loss on defective mortgages than Chief Executive Officer Brian T. Moynihan had forecast in January as he seeks to distance the firm from housing bets and reverse a stock decline.
The bank agreed to pay $8.5 billion to resolve claims from bondholders, including BlackRock Inc. and Pacific Investment Management Co., involving soured mortgages. The Charlotte, North Carolina-based lender said today the bill for settling with private investors may eventually exceed $14 billion, compared with a projection five months ago of zero to an "upper range" of $7 billion to $10 billion.
"We support management's attempt to rip off the Band-Aid and get the mortgage mess behind them so investors can look forward, but unfortunately there remain many open issues and likely billions more in costs," David Trone, an analyst at JMP Securities, said today in a note. Moynihan took a "much higher- than-expected hit" to resolve some claims, he said.
Moynihan, 51, is resolving mortgage disputes as he focuses on his goal of restoring the largest U.S. bank into a "growth company." The lender has been unprofitable in three of the six quarters since Moynihan took the post at the start of 2010, including the company's projection of a loss of as much as $9.1 billion for the period ending tomorrow.
Bank of America declined 19 percent this year through yesterday on the New York Stock Exchange on concern mortgage- related costs, new international capital rules and a slowing U.S. economy will swamp earnings. The shares rose 32 cents, or 3 percent, to $11.14 at 4:15 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading.
'Favorable Development'
The settlement will benefit the bank and may contribute to an upgrade of one of its financial strength ratings, Moody's Investors Service said. Fitch Ratings called the accord a "favorable development."
The agreement covers loans with an original balance of $424 billion, or about half of the bank's so-called private-label deals, the company said. The accord excludes loans sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-owned mortgage firms. It also doesn't cover securities and fraud claims, and is limited to loans initiated by Countrywide Financial Corp., which the bank acquired in 2008.
Moynihan said last year he'd engage in "hand-to-hand combat" fighting demands that the bank repurchase bad loans.
"We did fight," Moynihan said today. "The cost expense and uncertainty are taken off the table for half the private- label claims, but we fought" views on costs that were higher than the bank's, he said.
$14 Billion
Bank of America disclosed $14 billion in fresh costs today -- the $8.5 billion settlement and an additional $5.5 billion for reserves for future loan-repurchase demands -- and said that losses beyond that may be as much as $5 billion.
The deal follows a $3 billion settlement announced in January to resolve some claims from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Assuming stable housing prices, the deal "largely addressed" those liabilities, the bank said then, and Moynihan told investors management was "pleased to put the GSEs behind us."
Three months later, unresolved demands for loan refunds surged $2.9 billion to a record $13.6 billion, fueled mostly by claims from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, known as government- sponsored enterprises.
"Every time they've given us a number, they revise it upward 90 days later to be worse," said Tony Plath, a professor of finance at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte who follows Bank of America. "Investors will realize this is just one more in a series of losses that the bank underestimated."
'Best Estimate'
Chief Financial Officer Bruce Thompson, pressed on a conference call to explain why the projections are rising, cited uncertainty around U.S. home prices and said they were management's "best estimate at this point."
Home prices fell 4 percent in April from a year earlier, the biggest drop since November 2009, according to the S&P/Case- Shiller index of property values in 20 U.S. cities. Sales of new houses fell about 2.1 percent in May, the first decrease in three months, the Commerce Department said June 23.
Bank of America is recording $6.4 billion in additional mortgage-related costs in the second quarter, including a $2.6 billion goodwill impairment at its real estate unit. The sum also accounts for litigation costs and fees tied to the failure of its mortgage-servicing business to meet deadlines for foreclosing on homes for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Late Fees
The inability to meet timelines cost the firm more than $1 billion in the six months ended March 31, Bank of America said last month. The tally will rise as the two U.S.-owned mortgage firms become more "aggressive" with servicers, the company previously said.
Moynihan is seeking to boost results from commercial lending, wealth management and investment banking and limit damage from home loans originated before he became CEO. He named Terry Laughlin in February as head of a new unit managing foreclosures and soured loans.
The settlement, which also includes changes in how Bank of America services loans, won support from 22 investors, including the BlackRock group represented by Gibbs & Bruns LLP, the law firm said today in a statement. Bank of New York Mellon Corp., as the trustee for the mortgage-bond deals, will direct the flow of settlement payments.
The accord may encourage other investors to seek relief from Bank of America, Standard & Poor's said. JMP's Trone said the agreement could increase costs for mortgage disputes at rival banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc.
MBIA, Allstate
Bond insurer MBIA Inc., in suing Bank of America and Countrywide over $21 billion of mortgage securities in New York State Supreme Court, said its reviews had found that 91 percent of defaulted or delinquent loans had "material discrepancies from underwriting guidelines," such as borrower incomes, credit scores or debt-to-income ratios.
MBIA jumped 11 percent to $8.61 in New York trading on speculation Moynihan is more likely to settle with the company. Allstate Corp., which said in a lawsuit last year that the bank's Countrywide unit misrepresented $700 million in residential mortgage-backed securities, climbed 2.6 percent.
Moynihan's settlement with other bondholders "confirms the validity of investor claims and shows that Bank of America- Countrywide is acknowledging their responsibility in the RMBS crisis," said Maryellen Thielen, a spokeswoman for Northbrook, Illinois-based Allstate, in an e-mailed statement today.
Countrywide was "one of the dumbest acquisitions ever, it really was," said Paul Miller, a former examiner for the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and analyst with FBR Capital Markets in Arlington, Virginia. Bank of America managers are "getting a lot of curve balls thrown at them and they're doing the best job trying to hit them."

Access "BYOD security issues do exist, but IT teams shouldn't fear the trend"
This article is part of the November Volume 1, Issue 2 issue of Software-defined networking (SDN) may face obstacles in data center adoption
A lot of people are talking about BYOD, or the "bring your own device" trend. We know users want BYOD, and we know that we're nervous about it. The reality is that BYOD is here whether you acknowledge it or not. Your lack of support doesn't keep iPads and home computers out of your office. So it's time to embrace it. The Trust Hang-up Companies have many valid concerns, including questions like, "How will I support users on XYZ device?" or "What about my liability?" or "How will I secure these things?" But, fortunately, the fears of BYOD are more perceived than real; BYOD isn't fundamentally different from what you already do today. End-user support is already tricky (and in place). BYOD doesn't change that. And security concerns about users' devices? Come on! We all know that "physical access" is the Achilles' heel of any security system, and your users already have physical access to the devices they take home. Enterprise IT pros talk of two issues around security and BYOD: They wonder if they can trust corporate data and apps on personal devices, and they... Access >>>

The Impact of Security Trading on Corporate Restructurings
Konstantinos E. Zachariadis
London School of Economics
Ioan Florian Olaru
CastleRock Macro
September 24, 2013
Hedge funds are heavily involved in corporate restructurings through their debt holdings. A concern is that funds might short the equity of their debtors, vote down a restructuring proposal, and force a firm into inefficient liquidation to gain from their short position. We analyze the strategic game between a firm manager, who makes a restructuring proposal to maximize equityholder value, and a fund that can trade in the debt and equity of the firm. We show that if the trades in the equity market of other non-strategic investors are positive in expectation, potentially because of short selling constraints, and markets are informationally segregated then the manager makes a proposal that allows the fund to profitably execute the above strategy to the detriment of firm value.
