I've got a 1995 Subaru Legacy Outback. I'm trying to get the best price for a clutch replacement and am putting together a list of all the necessary parts and prices.
Can someone give me a list of parts that I should expect to pay for?
To replace the clutch technically you only need a new clutch. However most people will purchase a Clutch Kit that will usually contain
The last 2 items are not always included in a clutch kit and they are not always necessary, although an alignment tool does make life a little easier (technically this is a tool and not a 'part').
It is usually recommended that you get the flywheel machined also, this is a service you can get from most transmission places. Depending on the condition of your flywheel you can skip this part, but as I said it is the recommended practice.
Something to be aware of is that it is a non-trivial job to replace a clutch. It involves separating the gearbox from the engine because the clutch sits between the two, in order to do this one of those two items has to be removed from the vehicle, usually it's the gearbox. Because of the amount of effort required to remove and subsequently refit a gearbox it is often appropriate to do other maintenance at the same time that can only be done when the gearbox is removed or is much easier accomplished when the gearbox is removed.
If you are paying a mechanic to do a clutch replacement then the cost of labour will greatly outweigh the cost of parts.
You'll need the clutch itself, as well as an alignment tool for installing. This is usually packaged with the clutch, however. Other than that, you can expect to pay to have the flywheel "turned" as well. It is feasible that you would need to purchase/install a new pressure plate, and some might suggest you go ahead and do so, with a vehicle that has that many years on it. My suggestion would be check the price of the pressure plate and weigh it against the cost of potentially having to get back in to install a new one after doing the clutch repair.

What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
It is not answered because your question is, well, general (just like you said), and requires the readers to spend some time in deep thought before answering.
A quote from the faq seems especially relevant here:
It's not hard to imagine your scenario (as presented) consuming a room full of bright minds for a whole day.
Your question might have gotten more attention if it had been more focused on one specific aspect. It took me awhile to realize that one of your goals might be to size the screen (and its controls) proportionally to the device it is running on.
Not trying to be glib, but some pictures (and some freehand circles) demonstrating the concepts you're trying to convey would have helped!
...or because it is such a specific and niche question that it takes more then the average time to attract not only interested but certainly experienced visitors. The question just has 8 views for now and has no upvotes. That is saying that those 8 people were interested, but maybe have no experience to answer or vote for the question. I myself do not dare to upvote because I cannot fully evaluate its usefullness.
Just wait a little longer.
At the risk of asking a number of stupid questions:
What is NUI? What about the z axis? I don't have a Kinect, but I thought that device worked in 3D, not 2D. Are you planning to intersect its view with a pane of glass or something? Why XML? What is the point of selecting a data format right now?
I'd also reduce the scope of each problem. Before targeting all synths for instance, I'd suggest you at least get it working with one. And before thinking about all the virtual objects you'd like to support, I'd suggest you get it working with at least one object. Write some unit-tests. Focus on those.
I'd also suggest you try to break your question down into much smaller bite-sized questions (each posted separately on Stackoverflow). For instance, I can easily see your problem getting broken down in at least 10 different questions (some of which you'll probably be able to easily solve yourself after you've broken them down).
And please include some embedded sketches or pictures in your questions, I may be unable to answer any of your technical questions, but at least I can appreciate questions explained with illustrations and I can at least up-vote them.
Once you've broken the problem down into more manageable chunks you might find that Programmers or User Experience are better sites for some of your questions.
Programmers - From the FAQ:
So you can see that some of your questions would fit here, but you'd still have to break things down into specific issues.
User Experience - There's not much in the FAQ but questions on how usable something might be or which methodologies to use to evaluate your UI are on topic.
Indeed would have been better if broken down but I've replied with an answer to the original question

This Naruto star has it all, brains, skill, and looks. I wanted this to be a simple lesson that any fan of Naruto can tackle. I used to be a hardcore Naruto fan and when I was, I always wanted to draw my favorite characters but I didn't want to create them in a cheesy manner. So, I did what most people that love drawing do, I learned. Now I am able to show others how to draw Naruto characters, as well as other anime figures too.

with my Samusung Galaxy S II Epic 4G (Sprint) every time i go to save an attached picture from a text message the menu pops up with the same file name (everytime!) and a checkbox. i have to remember to go into my downloads picture folder and change the previous picture's file name, which is stupid and tedious. is there anyway to reset this for downloaded pics? or set it to auto assign a different file name each time??
Always been that way and if you don't change the name it will overwrite the image.
Till now, haven't found any fix or a work around, besides using another APP from the market.
This two have been recommend in the past and work just fine:
Just confirmed and this Google Play Search, still gives you the two above app as the best rated ones.

Unanswered: Treegrid - modify text style for some rows
I'm trying to change row style in a treegrid only for some rows.
Based on some logic, I want to gray the text and/or make it italic.
I found some posts for background colors but not for text.
I first tried to override render in TreeGridCellRenderer:
@Override public Object render(final ModelData model, String property, final ColumnData config, final int rowIndex, final int colIndex, ListStore<ModelData> store, final Grid<ModelData> grid) { Scheduler.get().scheduleDeferred(new ScheduledCommand() { @Override public void execute() { if(model != null) { Object myBoolean = model.get("myboolean"); if(myBoolean != null && ((Boolean)myBoolean)) { grid.getView().getRow(rowIndex).getStyle().setColor("gray"); //here I cannot find any way to set the text as italic for the row // I also trid with config.style=".." but it seems to work cell only for backgroud color } } } }); return super.render(model, property, config, rowIndex, colIndex, store, grid); }
but using the deferred command create a tiny - but visible - latency in style update.
Then I tried to use a GridViewConfig
tree.getView().setViewConfig(new GridViewConfig(){ StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); if(model != null) { Object myBoolean = model.get("myboolean"); if(myBoolean != null && ((Boolean)myBoolean)) { sb.append(" inactive"); // css : .inactive { color:gray; } } Object myBoolean2 = model.get("myboolean2"); if(myBoolean2 != null && ((Boolean)myBoolean2)) { sb.append(" noSelectable"); // .noSelectable { font-style:italic; } } } }); return super.render(model, property, config, rowIndex, colIndex, store, grid); }
The style applies on <tr> (in firebug) but seems to be overriden by text style of the cells (?). The computed style is italic for text from row start <div> to the first <td> in which it is normal.
For this <td> in firebug, if i remove (even just the 11px)
.x-grid3-hd-row .x-grid3-hd, .x-grid3-row .x-grid3-cell, .x-grid3-summary-row .x-grid3-cell { font: 11px arial,tahoma,helvetica,sans-serif; }
I cannot find any css to remove or add to have the tree cell in italic ...
I think I saw something about using a widget renderer for the tree cell styling but it makes too much code for a so simple use case. So I didn't try.
What should I do ? I really miss CSS skill and I guess I'm not so far of the solution ...
Should I remove the text style for cells (how ?)
Hope someone will have an idea !
19 Sep 2012 10:32 PM #2
I finally managed to change the font style of the row with GridViewConfig but I had to modify the css
.x-grid3-hd-row .x-grid3-hd,.x-grid3-row .x-grid3-cell,.x-grid3-summary-row .x-grid3-cell { /*font: normal 11px arial, tahoma, helvetica, sans-serif;*/ font-size:11px; } .x-tree3-node-text { /*font: normal 11px arial, tahoma, helvetica, sans-serif;*/ /*color: black;*/ }
Can I override these styles differently or somewhere else ?

Let me first thank you for your outstanding components. I really love them.
I am using TokenTokenMaker to customize the syntax highlighting for the assembly language I am working with, and I have two questions. I hope it's the best place to ask...
1) First, I'm not sure I'm using the best mapping between keyword, datatype and function.
For example, in the instruction
000401D8 C001 LDI:8 #0x00,R1
I guess # and , must be declared as operators, but would you declare the instruction (LDI:8) a keyword or a function ? What is the impact of choosing one or the other ?
Similarly, what about the register (R1) : keyword or data type ?
2) What about addresses and hex representation of the instruction, that are present at the beginning of each line, such as :
000401D8 C001 LDI:8 #0x00,R1
For now, it seems they are considered numbers if they only have decimal digits, but literal (other color) as soon as they include a hex letter. Is there a way to highlight them the same way ?
Best regards,

I have heard that a fire in a cave or under an overhang can cause a rock collapse, potentially injuring the occupant. Is this a real risk?
However, I would have thought it's a much higher risk with soft rock, such as sandstone, which could easily crack and break apart due to heat. I'd imagine the risk would be lower with something like granite, but I'm still not sure I'd risk it unless the cave was very large and well ventilated.
There is another problem with making a fire in a natural cave: the smoke propagating through the cave can severely affect various cave-dwelling species, particularly bats. That is especially bad during winter, when smoke and warm air from the fire can wake up the bats and drive them out of the cave, causing them to freeze or starve to death.
The general rule is that the rock can't get hot. When you heat the rock, the water inside evaporates and can crack the rock. If you're just making fire to warm yourself or cook something (a steak, not the whole beef) it will be OK. When the fire is moderate, the rock shouldn't even get warm.
You shouldn't also throw bigger stones into fire. They can explode.
The example cited by berry120 was something like the-biggest-fire-in-the-world-challenge... When you want to fire something big in the cave, I would be afraid of CO intoxication in the first line, however.
The only time I lit a fire in a cave we had to evacuate due to smoke and a billion spiders dropping from the ceiling.
This isn't a 'danger' for me in the UK - we do not have deadly spiders. Elsewhere this might be a significant danger.
Much better to light it just outside :-)
Use a reflector fire to bounce the heat inside the cave and funnel the smoke across the cave mouth - much the same as you would setting up a lean-to type shelter.
At first, I was going to down-vote the question, because "I have heard..." struck me as relying on urban myth. But I realized I didn't have the Rep yet on this site to do so...
Then coincidentally, I came across this sad story from 2009:
[Edit: This refers to the same story linked by Berry above]
But under normal circumstances, I suspect Carbon Monoxide poisoning and/or smoke inhalation is the bigger risk...

Sue Gardner: Dark places
I'm cautious about excessive introspection without some trusted person to offer perspective and balance. I have a dark place inside which at various stages of my life has been occupied by ghosts, daleks and negative emotions.
Somehow I need this place though, to connect me to others especially those who want support with change and containment. In working with people who have mental health needs and substance misuse I use their desire to escape their own dark place to form a connection which, together with the research evidence, best practice guidelines and clinical tools, can accelerate their journey to recovery. Perhaps if I understood myself fully my own journey would be over.
Sue Gardner is a Chartered clinical psychologist and President of the British Psychological Society.

Hey now, all you childrenReplyDelete
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
Cause there's a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say I've got nothing to fear
There's a darkness living deep in my soul
I still got a purpose to serve
So let your light shine, deep into my home

The fear that "any admission undermines my credibility as a psychologist?" , mentioned at the outset I believe is widely held in the profession (as with teachers, doctors and other helping professionals). It is incomprehensible to me that Psychologists can work with clients without having explored their own "dark places". We all have these places to one degree or another and awareness of our personal weaknesses and foibles surely makes us more adequate human beings. So please - more honesty, more authenticity and let's acknowledge our human frailty for the sake of better mental health for allReplyDelete

Disclaimer: I am a biased South African. Anything I say is likely to have something in it that ultimately favours the Proteas.
Shame Jager didn't go for an opener then to shift the load off Stewart.
Wilfred Rhodes opened the innings few times not a bad option though I'd give Alec Stewart benefit of doubt
01. Victor Trumper 02. Warren Bardsley 03. Clem Hill 04. Charlie Macartney 05. Warwick Armstrong 06. Monty Noble 07. George Giffen 08. Hugh Trumble 09. Jack Blackham 10. Fred Spofforth 11. Ernie Jones

I thought watson would pick Jardine
To be honest, Alec Stewart is good enough to be an opener at the highest level. I'd have another keeper so Alec can do what he does best - stick it to the bowlers.

- PIO Number: 01-8-18
- Date: August 14, 2001
- Time: 8:43 a.m.
- Place of Occurrence: 800 block of Hammondville Road, Pompano Beach
- Steve Cipriano, 44, 11/16/56, male, 11831 NW 39 Place, Sunrise
- Unknown
Description of Incident:
Broward Sheriff's Office detectives are trying to identify and locate an angry passenger who sprayed a driver in the face with pepper spray while exiting a Broward County bus.
BSO deputies responded to an emergency alarm, coming from Broward County Mass Transit bus number 0119, shortly before 9 o'clock Tuesday morning. When deputies arrived in the 800 block of Hammondville Road in Pompano Beach, they found the driver, Steve Cipriano, and several passengers standing outside the bus.
Cipriano told deputies that for no apparent reason the unidentified passenger sprayed his face while getting off the bus. Other witnesses said the suspect was complaining that Cipriano was driving too slowly and that he was going to be late for work. Pompano Beach Fire Rescue transported Cipriano to North Broward Medical Center for treatment.
Cipriano picked up the black male suspect at Hammondville Road and Dixie Highway about 5:30 a.m. The suspect was supposedly going to work, but stayed on the bus the entire route. He is believed to be about five feet ten inches tall, approximately 17 to 19 years old with a medium Afro. He was last seen wearing a dark blue with orange trim (around the sleeves) basketball tank top jersey. The jersey had the letters "USA" on the front and the number "7" on the back. The suspect was also wearing a pair of baggie carpenter type jeans, with a hammer hanging on the right side. Anyone with information on this case is asked to call Broward County crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS.

White-nose syndrome, a deadly disease to bats, has been found in caves at Carter Caves State Resort Park and Kingdom Come State Park in eastern Kentucky.
State parks officials said Friday that bats with the disease were found recently at Carter Caves in caves that aren't open to the public.
The Carter Caves system, near Olive Hill, is home to about 40,000 Indiana bats, which are federally endangered.
The officials say a bat with the disease was found early this year at Line Fork Cave at Kingdom Come State Park during a cave survey. The Letcher County cave is gated and not open to tourists. It's also home to Indiana bats.
White-nose syndrome was first identified in 2006 in New York and has killed millions of bats in the Eastern United States.

The mechanisms in the current negotiations:
Clean development mechanism
The first meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP 1) adopted the modalities and
procedures for a clean development mechanism (CDM). Pursuant to that decision, the first review
of the modalities and procedures for the CDM, was to be carried out by CMP 9.
requested the UNFCCC secretariat, drawing on the discussions that took place at the thirty-ninth
session of the Subsidiary Body of Implementation (SBI 39), and that were reflected in
a note by the co-chairs, to prepare a technical paper
on issues relating to possible changes to the modalities and procedures for the CDM, including their
implications, for consideration at SBI 40 (see decision 4/CMP.9,
paragraph 1).
At SBI 40, Parties made progress in their consideration as captured in the second note by the co-chairs, but could not come to conclusions on this agenda item. At
SBI 41 Parties convened their
consideration of this matter and concluded (
FCCC/SBI/2014/L.35) to continue considering this matter. At SBI42. the consultations among
Parties did not result in any conclusions and this matter will be considered at SBI43.
At SBI43 Parties continued their consideration of
this matter and concluded (FCCC/SBI/2015/L.28)
to continue considering this matter taking into account the priorities of Parties with regard to this
matter at SBI 44.
Background documents listed above:

Review of the joint implementation guidelines
CMP 1 adopted the guidelines for the implementation of Article 6 of the Kyoto Protocol (joint
implementation (JI)).
In accordance with decision 6/CMP.8, SBI 39 (Nov. 2013) initiated the review of these guidelines and agreed to
continue its consideration of this matter at SBI 40 (June 2014). At SBI 40 and SBI 41, Parties
continued considering this matter.
At SBI 42, Parties considered the following documentation, as requested by CMP 10, through its
5/CMP.10, and agreed to continue considering this matter at SBI 43 (Dec. 2015):
At SBI 43, Parties considered the above documentation and agreed to continue discussing this matter

At SBI 44, Parties concluded their consideration of the review of the JI guidelines. The work that
has been undertaken by the SBI is recorded in the annex of the document
The SBI recommended a
draft decision on this matter for consideration and adoption by CMP 12.
Synergy relating to accreditation under the mechanisms of the Kyoto Protocol
CMP 9 requested the Joint Implementation Supervisory Committee (JISC) to submit elaborated
recommendations on the JI accreditation system aligned with that of the CDM, taking into
consideration decision 6/CMP.8, paragraph 15(b), for consideration by SBI 40.
SBI 40 considered the synergy relating to accreditation under the mechanisms established under
Articles 6 (JI) and 12 (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol, taking note of the recommendation from
the JISC, and recommended a draft decision on this matter for consideration and adoption at CMP 10.
Countries with commitments under the Kyoto Protocol to limit or reduce greenhouse gas emissions must
meet their targets primarily through national measures. As an additional means of meeting these
targets, the Kyoto Protocol introduced three market-based mechanisms, thereby creating what is now
known as the "carbon market."
The Kyoto mechanisms are:
The Kyoto mechanisms:
JI and CDM are the two project-based mechanisms which feed the carbon market. JI enables
industrialized countries to carry out joint implementation projects with other developed countries,
while the CDM involves investment in sustainable development projects that reduce emissions in
developing countries.
The carbon market is a key tool for reducing emissions worldwide. It was worth 30 billion USD in 2006
and is growing.
Annex I Parties must provide information in their national communications under the
Protocol to demonstrate that their use of the mechanisms is "supplemental to domestic
action" to achieve their targets. This information is assessed by the facilitative branch of
the Compliance Committee
To participate in the mechanisms, Annex I Parties must meet, among others, the following eligibility
Detailed eligibility requirements can be found under the respective decisions agreed by the CMP, as

Bb Learn - Communicating with Students
Communicating with Students
The first, and arguably the most important, of the seven principles of good practice in undergraduate education is better communication between faculty and students. Technology allows you to communicate better, and Bb Learn allows you to retain your communications in one place, within the context of your course and your instruction.
We will look at three tools that facilitate communication in Bb Learn:
Messaging: Messaging in Bb Learn is e-mail by another name, one to one communication between you and your student that you can, by choice, forward to others should you need to.
Announcements: The Announcements tool allows you to post important details about the course or other issues.
Groups: Having your students communicate, cooperate, and learn with each other is also a good practice. Using the groups tool in Bb Learn can establish collaborative and social learning contexts within your course that can lead to improved thinking and deeper understandings for your students.

Early Runs Not Enough, Trojans Fall 8-5 to North GreenvilleMarch 25, 2014
TIGERVILLE, S.C. – Despite Anderson University baseball taking a 1-0 lead after the first pitch of the game when sophomore Kyle Bailey hit his third home run of the season, the Trojans were unable to hold onto their lead, falling in nonconference action Tuesday evening to North Greenville, 8-5, at Ashmore Field.
The setback evens up the season long series at one game apiece after Anderson captured a 22-12 victory over the Crusaders in their first meeting on Feb. 27 at Anderson Memorial Stadium. AU moves to 11-21 overall, while its in-state rival improves to 6-22 for the year.
Four Trojans claimed two hits for the evening, as the visitors outhit their opponent for the contest, 12-10. Sophomore Garrett Bernardo, who earned his first start of the year in right field, joined seniors Josh Hickman and Jonathan Zalud and junior Brett Cash with two hits, as Zalud was the only hitter of the quartet with an RBI.
Leadoff hitter Bailey, who got the start at shortstop, took the first pitch of the game over the wall as the sophomore has now hit a homer in his last two games. The home run would be Bailey's lone hit of the game, but a sacrifice fly in the top-half of the second would give him a team-high two RBI.
Sophomore Steven Cooper tallied Anderson other extra-base for the game with fifth-inning double. With the double, the first baseman has posted a hit in seven of his last nine contests.
After Anderson captured a 3-0 lead after two innings, NGU cut into the Trojan lead with two runs in the bottom of the third. With Cooper starting the offensive attack with his double in the fifth inning, back-to-back singles from senior Nathan Galliford and Cash scored Cooper. Later a single from Zalud plated Galliford, handing AU a 5-3 advantage.
Despite the hit spree, the two-run fifth inning would be the last time AU would cross the plate, as North Greenville rattled off six unanswered runs to seal the nonconference victory. In the Crusaders' 10 hits, a Mike Habas double was their lone extra-base hit for the game. NGU's middle of the lineup of Jessep Polk, Habas and Josh Sealey accounted for all of the home side's RBI for the contest, as Habas and Sealey totaled three apiece.
Anderson continues its two-game nonconference road trip on Wednesday when it hits the road to USC Aiken. First pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m.

Our patients have amazing accounts of hope and resilience. Read their stories.
Your gifts help us push the boundaries of cancer treatment. Ways to Give
Bladder cancer is a disease in which malignant cells form in the tissues of the bladder. Smoking, gender and diet can affect the risk of developing bladder cancer, and it most often affects people over the age of 55. Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers, but most people with bladder cancer have superficial and noninvasive tumors, and treatment is often very effective. Learn more about symptoms, risk factors, diagnosis and staging of bladder cancer in our Health Library.
Because bladder cancer can require a variety of treatments, we use a multidisciplinary approach involving urologic surgeons, medical oncologists, and radiation oncologists, including A. Karim Kader, MD, one of the most experienced bladder cancer surgeons in the United States.
For patients with superficial bladder cancer (cancer that has not invaded the muscle tissue), we can perform transurethral resection surgery (TUR), also known as transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). During this surgery, a cystoscope (a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing) is passed into the bladder through the urethra. A tool called a resectoscope uses electric current to remove cancerous tissue. Most patients will have a catheter placed in their bladder to drain urine after the operation and to help flush away any bleeding or blood clots that could make it difficult to pass urine after the procedure.
We may perform intravesical immunotherapy with the drug BCG (bacillus Calmette-Guerin) instead of or along with the procedure to avoid future surgeries or removal of the bladder. Post-surgical treatment might also include chemotherapy. Learn more about these treatments in our Health Library:
It's important to realize that bladder cancer will recur approximately 50 percent of the time. For this reason, it's vital to receive follow-up care, which includes regular cystoscopic evaluations for up to two years.
For patients with bladder cancer that appears to have spread to the muscle tissue, we may perform intravesical immunotherapy before other treatments such as TUR or partial cystectomy (partial removal of the bladder). Treatment before surgery is known as neoadjuvant treatment and can improve the outcome. Learn more about radical and partial cystectomy in our Health Library.
Cystectomy is the surgical removal of all or part of the bladder. It is used to treat bladder cancer that has spread into the bladder wall (stages II and III) or to treat cancer that has recurred following initial treatment. Dr. Kader and other urologic cancer specialists at UC San Diego Health System perform robot-assisted cystectomy and urinary diversion for patients with bladder cancer.
For most patients, radical cystectomy, or removal of the entire bladder, is the most effective option. During a radical cystectomy, nearby lymph nodes, part of the urethra, and nearby organs that may contain cancer cells are also removed. Performing these delicate procedures robotically allows the surgeon to magnify the surgical area, making it much easier to work around the tiny nerves that affect sexual function.
In men, the prostate, seminal vesicles and part of the vas deferens are removed. In women, the cervix, uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and part of the vagina are removed.
After the bladder is removed, your surgeon will perform reconstructive surgery to create a urinary diversion (a new place for urine to be stored and to leave the body). See What Happens During Reconstructive Bladder Surgery for more information. Using the da Vinci robotic surgical system, our surgeons can perform this delicate procedure with greater visibility and precision than other techniques.
Previous scientific research has suggested that certain foods–including carrots, cruciferous vegetables—may protect against bladder cancer. UC San Diego urologists, led by J. Kellogg Parsons, MD, are at the forefront of research that explores how diet can be used to potentially prevent and treat cancer.
Beginning in 2009, the team began a pilot study called Diet Intervention in Bladder Cancer Study (DIBS). It was a federally funded, randomized clinical trial of telephone-based dietary intervention focusedon increasing consumption of cruciferous vegetables in people with early-stage bladder cancer. The study is now closed. Read a description or see the results published in Cancer Prevention Research.

The 007 Lamest James Bond Scenes
Sadly, many Bond films are marred by the inclusion of scenes that are so daft, so uncool, that they grab you by the frontal lobe and jerk you out of enjoying the film. Let's take a look at the 007 lamest moments in James Bond history, shall we?
Live and Let Die doesn't just embrace lameness, it gropes and French kisses lameness with vodka breath and then vomits in lameness's bed. Roger Moore's first Bond film has a profoundly un-Bondian moment: the infamous alligator hopscotch scene.
Bond, who has been captured by Evil Black People, is taken to a swampy alligator farm chock full of hungry reptiles. The bad guys forget that they have guns and instead opt for the 100% organic approach to killing Bond – namely, the alligators. They conveniently leave Bond alone (how could he possibly escape?) and that's when things get wacky.
Whether out of sheer chance or in response to an Aquaman-like telepathic command from Bond, all the alligators arrange themselves in a neat line in the water. Bond then traipses across the gator chorus line to safety. Dude doesn't even get wet. It's a great stunt, but it belongs in a different movie: Peter Pan.
There are those who feel that all of the Sean Connery Bond films are beyond reproach simply because The One True Bond is in them. These people are stupid. In You Only Live Twice, Bond must blend in with the locals during a mission to Japan, so he slaps on a kimono, a little bit of make-up, gets a Romulan hair style and voila! Instant Japanese.
Or not. The audience is asked to accept that the strapping six foot Scotsman can actually pass as an Asian, and—even harder—is asked not to giggle during every close up shot. Freakish red haired comedian Carrot Top would make a more convincing Japanese dude. Lame, Bond-san.

1971 Plymouth Satellite - Fast BrakeWritten by on October 1, 2009 How To Upgrade Your Mopar's Braking System With Modern Hardware From Wilwood.
Modifications to a performance car take on a variety of forms, and for traditional muscle cars the most obvious mods are those underhood contributing to the "go." Probably just as important are changes just a little further down that focus on the "whoa." Safety is just as much a concern here as performance, especially considering many cars of the era were factory equipped with barely adequate drum brakes. Our '71 Plymouth Satellite project was thankfully equipped with the optional factory front disc brakes, a system greatly superior to drums, but even here we saw plenty of room for improvement.
The factory disc brake system on our Satellite is certainly a product of the industrial age, a time when iron was as cheap as the dirt it was processed from, and weight was far from a primary design concern. All of that metal, a single-piston pin-mounted caliper, and an overall rotor diameter of 11 inches, made for a cheap and effective braking system for its day, but it was a system that is admittedly primitive in contrast to what is generally seen today. We definitely recognized the opportunity for an upgrade, with a goal of installing a system that is both better and lighter, adding to the braking performance as well as to the overall gains achieved though reduced weight.
Wilwood offers exactly the system we wanted: a lightweight disc conversion using a fixed caliper system, and larger diameter 12.19-inch rotors for improved mechanical advantage. We looked at our entire braking system and made the decision to re-vamp the whole thing, using Wilwood's "Dynapro 6" 12.19-inch, six-piston kit up front, and the "Dynalite Pro-Series" 12.19-inch four-piston kit at the rear. At the same time we would heave the heavy iron master cylinder and power booster, going to a manual system, and add an adjustable proportioning valve to allow tuning the front/rear brake bias.
Since the Wilwood kit is designed to retrofit factory drum brakes, replacing the front disc brakes on our Satellite required a swap to the drum brake spindle. We found the front brake swap to be a simple upgrade, and the weight savings were substantial at nearly 40 pounds total. With the bigger brakes, wheel fit was a question with our aftermarket 15-inch wheels. According to a source at Wilwood, the 12.19-inch brake system will clear some 15-inch wheels, but interfere with others, depending upon specific wheel design. We found our 15-inch forged alloy Cragars by Weld Wheels cleared.
Discarding the factory iron master cylinder and brake booster and converting to the Wilwood aluminum master cylinder required an OEM manual brake pushrod and manual brake firewall reinforcement plate. The Wilwood master has a two-bolt pattern rather than the four-bolt pattern used by Mopar until 1979, so we drilled our plate, firewall, and pedal bracket to match. Since the two-bolt late Mopar aluminum master cylinder is a popular swap (same bolt pattern as Wilwood), a master cylinder adaptor is available from Mopar Performance and other Mopar vendors which will allow the Wilwood cylinder to bolt up without drilling. Another consideration is the need for a manual brake master cylinder pushrod, since the power brake pushrod arrangement will not match with a manual brake conversion. We found the Wilwood master's piston comes without the machining for pushrod retention, so it is imperative that a positive pedal stop is incorporated.
At this stage of the project, we installed the front conversion, master cylinder, and proportioning valve, while retaining the rear drum brakes. The rear disc conversion requires aftermarket "green" non-adjustable rear axle shaft bearings with snap-ring retention, and is not compatible with the factory tapered roller bearings. Since future plans call for a narrowed custom rear housing, it would be money down the drain to re-bearing our current axle shafts. The rear brake assembly will be included in the rear end build when we make the swap. Wilwood's proportioning valve allowed us to adjust the bias to accommodate the drums in the rear, and we can later dial in the braking system for the discs out back with a simple twist of the valve.

There is preliminary bench assembly required to prep the Wilwood brakes for installation, including assembling the aluminum hub adaptors to the rotors, packing the wheel bearings, and mounting the hubs to the rotor assembly.All of the critical fasteners used in the Wilwood brake system call for safety wire. The required equipment here is a variety of pliers, stainless safety wire, and the know-how required to install it properly. In order to keep the fasteners secure, the wire should tension in an orientation that holds the bolts in a torqued (clockwise) direction.Here we have a hub and rotor assembly completed, safety wired, and ready for installation, with the second unit awaiting final assembly.Wilwood's Mopar B- and E-body front disc brake kit is designed to mount to a factory drum brake spindle, whereas our Satellite came equipped with 11-inch factory discs. To use the kit on a disc brake car, the front spindles must be change to the drum brake type.We had this '70 Challenger out back with factory drum brakes and the required spindles. The drum brake spindles are not particularly difficult to find, covering '62-72 B-body, and '70-74 E-body applications.Replacing the spindles requires supporting the lower control arm with a jackstand to take the suspension load, then disconnecting the upper ball joint and unbolting the lower ball joint/steering arm. Here we have the drum brake spindle installed.The caliper mount bolts to the spindle with new fasteners (included in the kit). The front lower ball joint bolt from the drum car is required, as it is longer than the disc brake bolt, and it is reused in the conversion.With the rotor assemblies already bench-assembled, the installation was simply a matter of sliding the hubs onto the spindles, and adjusting the wheel bearings as normal. The Wilwood hubs feature nice, machined-aluminum, screw-on spindle caps, as compared to the stamped-steel hammer-on stockers. Our kit uses Wilwood's "Dynapro 6" six-piston calipers.
The brake pads are inserted from the top of the caliper, and retained with a quick-release clip. Finish the installation by plumbing the brake lines. We went with Wilwood's universal 16-inch braided steel brake line kit, which fit our Satellite perfectly, and mated to the stock hard-line connection.We weighed all of the components involved in the conversion and were surprised to find a savings of 19.5 pounds per side with the larger diameter 12.19-inch Wilwood brakes, a hefty savings in comparison to the OEM 11-inch discs. Along with the master cylinder conversion and eliminating the booster, we saved a total of 53.5 pounds.To allow adjustment of the brake bias front to rear, we added a Wilwood proportioning valve, and plumbed it into the line to the rear brakes. We fabbed a simple bracket to mount the valve to the inner rocker panel, which put the control knob inside the passenger compartment through an existing body plug in the floor pan.With the proportioning valve location through the left-rear floor pan plug, the brake bias can be adjusted from the driver seat. We found the knob on the proportioning valve fit the existing body hole perfectly.With the relatively light weight of our Satellite and the 12.19-inch rotors and six-piston calipers, we decided that a manual brake system would offer improved feel, less clutter, and a weight reduction. The factory iron master cylinder and brake booster were removed as an assembly.To install the Wilwood 1-inch piston master cylinder, we used a firewall reinforcement plate from a factory drum brake car. The Wilwood master uses two mounting bolts in contrast to the factory four-bolt flange. Although an adaptor is available, we re-drilled the reinforcement plate, firewall, and inner pedal bracket to the Wilwood pattern and mounted the master cylinder directly. A manual brake master cylinder pushrod is required. A positive pedal stop is also required, since the Wilwood master cylinder piston lacks the provision for the OEM-style internal pushrod retention bushing.

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum, and just wanted a bit of advice as to whether I should buy the NN3 or NN5. I'm shooting with a plastic panoramic set up at the moment which is a bit light for my Nikon D200; I'm generally using a Nikon 20-35 for panos, so the weight is getting up there (I'm guessing around 2.5kg or so). I know the NN3 can handle this, but I suppose my question is, can the NN5 handle it better? I'd like to get a lens in the 50-80mm range in the future; are these lens still good with the NN3 or am I getting to the upper limits of the NN3?
Sorry, just a big decision and I want to make the right one...
many thanks,

I am looking to change the functionality of the buttons on the Apple Remote. What software is available to do this?
The free BetterTouchTool can do this:
You can set up complex actions to be triggered by any of the buttons being either pressed or held.
Mira can customize the Apple Remote buttons on a per-app basis, and costs $16.
Remote Buddy allows you to customize the Apple Remote and many other devices, however it does cost more than Mira.
Better Touch Tool also allows you to customize the actions of an Apple Remote, as well as trackpad/mouse, but there seems to be issues with the default action still firing with BetterTouchTool (see this question). It is free though.

making music for indipendent developers...some considerations.
Hi all
I'm aldo scoppa music composer and sound designer for videogames
I hope to add some think for discussions and conversations writing this thread
For first my experience: in the last 2 years I've worked on many little projects (paid), my clients are
indipendent developers from many countries. An indie team has not many developers and small budgets, they develop
little games (casuals, puzzles and platforms) and they work on really smart and innovative gameplays. It does not mean that some indieteam does'not try a jump to aaa industry, means they need to self-financing their projects
1) I think a composer/sound designer can work just for indipendent developers if he has many many clients
and maybe collaborations with portals, But today I don't think that's the way to AAA industry, plus. after works
and conversations with many developers from many countries still I don't know what's the way to AAA industry for a composer
or sound designer.
2) Money are importants: I think is hard to choose the way of being a composer/sound designer as first career in indie developer field...but not impossible. If you're young you can accept to live some hard day planning your goals and working
on little projects.
3) My personal opinion about a good break into indie world is that you have to become a "casual composer". Every guy playing andcomposing music likes a style, but the requests are many many different: rock, house music, orchestral music, ethnic, hiphop world music etc...I'm sure Jeremy Soule has not many house music tracks in his CV, but this is the real life :-).
Technically the way to do that is to focus our music skills on dedicated hardware or software for every music style imho.
For example if you make your tracks with software you can work on house-music with a deep study on Fruity-loops, or Stylus rmx, on ethnic learning to use the akai libraries (choosing a not too expensive solution).
A smart tip is to listen retrogames music learning how you can produce it (what synthesizer, what electronic drums, etc....many indie developers love it :).
of course you have to improve your skills in sfx and sound-design...you can solve two issues for an indie team. Music and sounds..
walking on this way I hope to tell you other good informations about it...I hope to write about it like a really right way for a good career...now I'm honest, I don't know yet..but if you're sure about your talent and you're young, I think you have to try :)
so thankyou for the attention.
best regards

There are fire markings on the legs. You know how the blue part of a fire is the hottest? Well, I decided to make the hooves blue. Coloring in the flames on the legs took a long time so I ended up using the gradient tool to speed it up. I'll be back soon, peeps, so keep your pencils and paper out, cuz I'm gonna teach you how to draw Pichu from Pokemon next. Till then, peace.

"How will you respond when your call comes? What will your contribution be?"
That's a question Arthur Kinoy frequently asked in his classes at Rutgers School of Law–Newark and one that inspired several generations of law students at Rutgers and around the country to use their legal talents to advance equality and social justice. Kinoy was a member of the Rutgers faculty from 1964 until he retired in 1992, serving then as an emeritus professor until his death in 2003. A prominent civil rights attorney for more than 50 years and a founder of the Center for Constitutional Rights, Arthur Kinoy helped earn for the law school a national reputation as a center for public interest law.
Professor Emeritus Arthur Kinoy (l) with Professor Frank Askin in 2002 at the dedication of the new center for the law school's Eric R. Neisser Public Interest Program
One of his first law students was Frank Askin, a journalist and political organizer whose activism had put him on the FBI's Communist-watch list at the age of 18. Askin came to Rutgers expecting to return after graduation to journalism, ideally covering the Supreme Court. The law practiced by Arthur Kinoy and others in the civil rights movement changed his mind. In the spring of 1965, when Askin was a 2L, Kinoy argued and won the landmark civil rights case of Dombrowski v. Pfister before the U.S. Supreme Court. In subsequent years, legions of Rutgers students assisted him in the preparation of other landmark Supreme Court victories, most notably United States v. United States District Court and Powell v. McCormack.
The Dombrowski case and other Warren Court decisions showed Frank Askin what effective legal advocacy could accomplish. He began to consider that, as he wrote in Defending Rights: A Life in Law and Politics, "Maybe, I would become a practicing lawyer after all – a public interest lawyer – or, as Professor Kinoy liked to call it, 'a people's lawyer'."
When Askin graduated from Rutgers with highest honors in 1966, he accepted an offer to join the faculty. As Arthur Kinoy, his "legal guru" and now colleague, did, he would be able to combine classroom teaching with handling pro bono cases.
The 1967 rioting in Newark and other cities prompted the law school to examine its roles and responsibilities as a legal institution in a declining urban community. Professor Askin chaired a special faculty committee that recommended adoption of an equal opportunity policy to increase minority admissions.
Subsequent to the creation of the Minority Student Program, the law school turned its attention to making legal education more relevant to public life and a transformed student body. Arthur Kinoy, in addition to trail-blazing litigation, wrote powerful articles that impacted legal thought and legal education. His article on "The Present Crisis in American Legal Education" (24 Rutgers L. Rev. 1, 1969) helped drive the growth of clinical legal education not only at Rutgers but across the country. In 1970 the Rutgers faculty, including Professor Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Askin's Civil Procedure teacher, voted unanimously to establish an extensive clinical program. Quoting from Kinoy's law review article, the faculty mission statement described the goal of the program as producing a "new breed of lawyers characterized by their compassion, competence and commitment to the cause of equal justice and positive social change."
When Arthur Kinoy went on leave for the 1970-71 academic year, he asked Frank Askin to take over his seminar in advanced constitutional problems. The seminar often involved cases from the docket of the Center for Constitutional Rights, giving students experience with real cases and clients. With Kinoy's encouragement, Askin saw the opportunity to incorporate some of his own outside litigation on behalf of the ACLU into the curriculum, giving students who had been volunteering their assistance academic credit for their efforts. He obtained a grant to establish a law office at Rutgers called the Constitutional Litigation Clinic which, since 1970, has been his home base at the law school.
Inspired by Arthur Kinoy's vision of training law students to use the law to create a better society, Professor Frank Askin has been the constant voice of and advocate for the Rutgers–Newark clinical program for four decades. On April 3, the law school will honor both men and celebrate the clinical program that has launched the careers of many prominent public interest lawyers, provided invaluable practical experience to students now in private and corporate practice, helped establish numerous important legal precedents, and provided high-quality legal representation to thousands of underserved individuals, causes, and communities.

I've been struggling with how to get my project going. I've got an old software package that is in need of desperate rewrite. I haven't compiled the source code since 2004. It still sells, it's stable but does require the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" on a lot of the newer windows systems. It's also one of those hard coded 640 X 480 screen resolution programs. Yuck!
I can't seem to get started with this rewrite. I'm constantly fiddling around with different things. I'll play around with different fluid layouts for a while. Then I start looking at how the main menu should work and look. I quickly find out that there's this thing called "Cool Bars" and I'll spend hours playing with that.
Then I start thinking about stuff like "Oh I need to make sure that the screen sizes are preserved so when the application gets re-launched it remembers how the screens were positioned." Which leads to what happens if they have two monitors? Which leads to what happens if they have a quad screen? Yikes it's got to stop.
I have always been a slow starter. I think about stuff long and hard up front. This has always plagued me. Once I get my mind made up though bam... I'm off and running.
I'm looking for advice from some other one-person software companies that can help someone like me get off to a quicker start?
Thanks to everyone for your motivation. I finally have a plan in place. I wish I could split the vote between @haylem and @ThorbjørnRavnAndersen.
I went to download.com and filtered the downloads by my software category. I sorted by "Editors Pick" and downloaded a couple of the highest rated programs. On the second hit I found the final piece of inspiration I needed.
I love yellow sticky notes.

Product Q&A
What is Loll Furniture made out of?
For the most part Loll Designs products are made from 100% recycled High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) which is the same material as the #2 recyclable plastics (i.e. milk jugs, etc) that you take out to curb every week (or at least should be). Loll uses Richlite as a tabletop material, a unique environmentally-friendly wood fiber composite that is made for outdoor applications.
Will my Loll Furniture fade or need to be painted or stained?
NO! The HDPE that Loll uses will not fade or change color. The natural color Richlite material we use for our table tops will patina over time but will still look good. You will never have to paint or stain Loll Furniture.
What kind of maintenance will I have to do to keep my Loll Furniture looking good?
NONE! Leave it out year round, hose it off with a garden hose in the spring and enjoy. It's that easy. Loll Furniture will not, fade, warp, rot, require paint or stain or any on going maintenance to keep its beautiful appearance so you can spend more time relaxing.
What does the plastic feel like?
The plastic we use has a texture very closely resembling an orange peel.
Is it safe to use/keep my Loll furniture by a fire pit?
Yes! Just don't throw it in the fire. The melting point of the poly used in our furniture is 275 degrees F - which means if you do have a problem with melting, you've got bigger problems to worry about first, like the fact that your legs are on fire.
Product Q&A
The Satellite Oval Table by Loll comes with a 5-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

Panels sometimes disappear when their siblings are collapsed
Using Ext JS 4.0.2, I put two panels inside of a container, making both of them collapsible. When I collapse the first, then the second, the first panel disappears (visually at least). Here's the markup and code to reproduce it.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://extjs.cachefly.net/ext-4.0.2/resources/css/ext-all.css">
Also, this only happens when the panels are in some kind of parent container. If the collapsible panels are appended directly to the document body, the problem does not occur.
- When a panel disappears, its top-level DOM element (<div id="panel-1015"...) has the style "width: 0;" applied directly to it.
- The header element (<div id="header-1018"...) has the same "width: 0;" style applied to it.
- Setting those widths back to the container width makes the panel reappear.
It looks like when we collapse a panel, it tells its parent container to "do layout", which in turn triggers the setting the width of its child panels. The problem occurs when one of those child panels was already collapsed. The reason is because of the how the child panel decides how wide it should be. It looks at the dimensions of its body. Since the body has the style "display: none;", its width is calculated as zero.
The bit of code I'm talking about is in the Ext.core.Element class:
getWidth: function(contentWidth, preciseWidth) { var me = this, dom = me.dom, ... } else if (Ext.supports.BoundingClientRect) { // display is none, so this is a 0 x 0 box! rect = dom.getBoundingClientRect(); width = rect.right - rect.left; width = preciseWidth ? width : Math.ceil(width);
Here's the stack trace at this point:

Thanks for the report, I've pushed it into our issue tracker
17 Oct 2011 3:50 PM #3
Not working either
Same issue here. Does later (commercial) releases of Ext JS have this issue.
Could someone confirm?
Could this issue be related to the layout? any thoughts
14 Nov 2011 6:06 PM #4
A work around
My company just got premium support with Sencha and while submitting a bug for this I ran into a solution.
Ext.onReady(function () { Ext.create('Ext.container.Container', { defaults: { collapsible: true, width: 400 }, items: [{ title: 'Collapse me first...', html: 'Text 1' }, { title: '...and then me (first panel will disappear)', html: 'Text 2' }], renderTo: Ext.getBody() }); });
25 Jan 2012 12:46 AM #5
I am having the same issue when using ext 4.0.7. Can someone provide a solution for this ?
Thank you,
14 Mar 2012 9:26 AM #6
I had this problem in another case with column layout and panels with height values.
The "solution" - if you can call it solution - was to simply add a width:100% to the child elements.
I dont know if this works in your case.
PHP Code:
defaults: {
collapsible: true,
width: '100%'
6 Dec 2012 2:29 AM #7
this could fix the problem, however, while expanding and collapsing the panels with fixed height and 'autoScroll', sometimes the 'anchor' does not work well--very right part may hide under the scroll bar. But not big deal, compared with the original 'nothing' problem...

NC Emergency Management earns national re-accreditation
Published: Wednesday, October 9, 2013 at 3:50 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 9, 2013 at 3:50 p.m.
Public Safety Secretary Frank L. Perry announced Tuesday that the state's Emergency Management program has been granted full re-accreditation by the national Emergency Management Accreditation Program.
"This is yet another affirmation of what an outstanding group of emergency managers we have in North Carolina," Secretary Perry said in a news release Tuesday. "Time and time again our local, state and federal agencies and volunteer organizations prove they are up to the challenge and can respond to any emergency."
The EMAP accreditation is a voluntary process for state and local government programs that coordinate preparedness and response activities for natural or man-made disasters. It affirms an agency's ability to bring together staff and resources from a variety of organizations to prepare for, respond to and recover from any given emergency, and validates that the agency can provide continuous and consistent response to disasters.
The EMAP process evaluates several areas including: planning, resource management, training, exercises, evaluations and corrective actions, communications and warnings. The accreditation status is valid for five years, after which time the agency must be reassessed and recertified to ensure they are compliant with EMAP procedures and standards.
After months of preparation, NCEM staff worked with trained EMAP assessors last spring as they conducted a peer-review assessment of the agency's programs and practices to ensure the division was in compliance with 64 national standards. Assessors examined 18 capability categories ranging from Hazard Mitigation to Incident Management to Crisis Communications. In 2008, North Carolina became the 11th state to earn national accreditation. There are now 30 states and 15 local jurisdictions which have earned accreditation status.

The 6 Characteristics of Asperger's Syndromeby Lindsay Hutton
Has your child been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome? Read up on the characteristics of this disorder, so you can find strategies to cope with your child's behaviors.
1 of 7
Difficulty with Reciprocal Social Interactions
Those with Asperger's syndrome display varying difficulties when interacting with others. Some children and adolescents have no desire to interact, while others simply do not know how. More specifically, they do not comprehend the give-and-take nature of social interactions. They may want to lecture you about the Titanic or they may leave the room in the midst of playing with another child. They do not comprehend the verbal and nonverbal cues used to further our understanding in typical social interactions. These include eye contact, facial expressions, body language, conversational turn-taking, perspective taking, and matching conversational and nonverbal responses to the interaction.
Use this printable checklist to determine your child's ability to socially interact.

18 Images You Won't Believe Aren't Photoshopped (Part 9)
#9. When the Ents Get Tired, They Just Sit Right Down ...
Erectile Dysfunction: It's not just for Bob Dole anymore.
These trees can be found in the so-called Crooked Forest, in Poland, all of their trunks inexplicably bowing to the north. Adding to the weirdness, nobody knows how they got that way. Experts are certain that some human intervention had to be involved, but when World War II happened, the reasons for shaping the trees that way were lost. While some of the more boring theories involve creating bent wood for the ribs of boat hulls, an especially powerful fart coming from the south side has not been ruled out.
#8. We Hope You Didn't Pay Much for That Fake Bag, Dude ...
These bags by Jump from Paper look like giant stickers, but as you can see from the 360-degree animation on their site, these are real bags that you can store stuff in. Finally, someone's made a purse for the man on the go who wants to look like he splits time between our world of three dimensions and a brightly colored two-dimensional illustration.
Jump From Paper
Sadly, this model was beaten to death by an oversize mallet moments later.
#7. How Batman Was Actually Conceived
OK, that doesn't even look sophisticated enough to be Photoshopped. But we've got bad news for anyone who didn't realize that bats come in "flying wolf" sizes. It may look like someone put a child's Batman costume on their dog in the service of some unholy cross-section of furry and bondage fetishes, and after you know the truth, you will wish it was.
That's a giant golden-crowned flying fox, one of the largest (not the largest? Come on, nature!) of what are known as mega bats. Not the most scientific name for giant bats, but there's not a lot of time for cleverness when you're slowly backing away from the thing you're naming, trying to locate the nearest exit without averting your eyes.

It took a full platoon to bring that one on the right down.
It boasts a nearly 6-foot wingspan, which we should probably point out is more than big enough to wrap you in its leathery embrace and make your scream disappear, along with any memory of your existence.
#6. If Hunter S. Thompson Took Acid in Modern Day Las Vegas
Felipe Dana AP, via The Atlantic
Above: What Darren Aronofsky sees when he closes his eyes.
This fever dream of a hallucination is in reality a photo of a giant float in a carnival parade in Rio de Janiero. It would be easy to question why those chorus girls are being fed to the henna tattooed head of Mr. Freeze, but we prefer to respect other cultures. The picture was taken at something called the Sambadrome, which perfectly combines the glamour and terrifying apocalyptic terror on display, and which we have to assume the dancers misheard as "The Samba Dome" when agreeing to the gig.
#5. Crop Circles Aren't as Technically Impressive, But at Least They Don't Melt
You might wonder what's so remarkable about this image until you realize that the little dot in the upper right hand corner is a guy who just did all of that with his feet. Artist Simon Beck creates these gigantic snow sculptures by walking around with snow shoes on.
#4. It'd Be Impolite to Point Out His Walking Stick is a Toothpick
Earlier this year, the world of inexplicably tiny people was shaken to its little core when 72-year-old Chandra Bahadur Dangi was discovered in Nepal. One full inch shorter than the man who was previously thought to be the world's smallest, Guinness also declared him the shortest man ever.
"We're terribly sorry, but you're six inches short of the minimum Oompa Loompa requirements."
There's been no controversy as of yet, but the previous shortest man ever only lived to age 40, and the next shortest living man is only 18, while Dangi is in his prime as a stooped old man. If his title is contested, a no-holds-barred wrestling match will be held in a shoe box (if we have any say in the matter).
#3. The Pop-Tart Rainbow Cat Does a Flyover
You no longer need three kinds of drugs and a couple Pink Floyd records to see something like this spanning the sky. The Global Rainbow is an art project, which recently visited London to celebrate the upcoming Olympics. When reached for comment, the double rainbow guy wept openly for a few minutes, and then his head exploded.
All the way, indeed.

Finally, science has brought us the Perpetual Nightmare Machine.
If they ever attempt an Odd Couple reboot starring Busta Rhymes and Martha Stewart, the set has already been created. This photo is of a real room in a French hotel, which offers the world's best or worst night's sleep, depending on which side of your body you sleep on.
#1. David Lynch: Cat Whisperer
This real two-faced cat is called a Janus cat after the Roman god who looked both forward and back. His deformity is caused by a gene named sonic hedgehog, after science apparently realized stoned college kids would be the cat's most appreciative audience.

Im very interested in hearing where you got this information from as its not what I've been hearing from behind the scenes on this trail issue with all parties involved.
For the record the Eastside Trail system is located on Transport Canada property (Federal Crownland) and is managed by the St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation (SLSMC).
The Niagara Regional Government holds a lease agreement with the SLSMC on this property covering the trail system. The Niagara Regional Government subleases it to the three Cities that the trail system spans. Port Colborne, Welland and Thorold.
The trail system is overseen by a Regional Government Committee called the Greater Niagara Circle Route Committee (GNCRC).
Welland recently decided to back away from this sublease for several reason given, liability (a recent fatal accident by a highpowered dirtbiker that was actually not even using the trail system but using the stone service road nearby and hitting a concrete vehicle barrier block in the dark) and noise complaints from a new housing development across the canal from part of the Welland section of the trail.
The trail is a show piece example of users groups coming together.
Below is a quote from one of the local users groups website that helped develop the trail system and help maintain it.
They are a Motorcycle Club.
