Andrew-Lee revealed in a recent Dreamwatch interview that he's been filming behind the scenes footage for an extra on the Series 2 Primeval boxset
In 2008 Andrew's Primeval character, Connor, has been immortalised in action-figure form.
Andrew-Lee has appeared in a number of feature films including Dead Fish (2004), The Poet (2003) and New Year's Day (2001).
Andrew-Lee's third short film that he's directed is called Colour Blind and stars Primeval co-star Hannah Spearritt.
In between acting jobs Andrew-Lee produces Hip-Hop music.
For his role in Rose & Maloney Andrew-Lee had to film inside an active prison.
As of 2007 Andrew-Lee was dating Primeval co-star Hannah Spearritt.
Andrew has worked extensively in musical theatre appearing in a number of productions including Bugsy Malone and Oliver!.
Andrew-Lee: (on the second series of Primeval) We're in it so much more this year and are so integrated into the storylines that we don't have any time off. You do become a robot. You get six hours' sleep and the rest of it you're working and running and screaming at the top of your voice.
Andrew-Lee: (On being cast for Primeval) I just couldn't believe that they cast Connor Temple, the little genius of the group, as some Northern boy from a council estate. I couldn't believe that ITV had gone, yeah, we'll have Andrew-Lee Potts in this. It made me feel really nice.
Andrew-Lee: It was great to work with Gary Oldman. He's the reason I became an actor. I grew up doing independent films and I think Gary has made great choices. I try to follow him and look very different in each role, like a chameleon. So I was on Cloud 9 when Dead Fish came through.
Andrew-Lee: My mission in life is to out pout James Murray!
Andrew-Lee: Through my career I have been lucky enough to have been involved in a lot of independent and quite big stuff, but playing very, very, very serious roles.
Andrew-Lee: Acting is a bit of a roller coaster, since I've been 17 it's just been going all over the place, and I've been very lucky. Every time I get a job I still think 'Thank God I'm still working!
Andrew-Lee: (on this role in Primeval) I'm the geek chic sex appeal.

Looking for a team in CT as well. Let's get it started!!!
What day is good for you...I work in stamford and am free after 3:30
I teach at King Low Heywood in Stamford, and have random after-school meetings, so it's hard to schedule a definite time each week, though Thursdays are usually good. Can we meet around 4ish Thursday, then set times for next week?
I just registered for the Jimmy FUnd half marathon in September, so I'm pumped and motivated!
Hi All,
I wanna join as well but I work until about 6 everyday. Can we do weekends?
Thursdays are good for me. I can meet at 4 and as you suggested we can then set times for the next week. Weekends are good too. Let me know whats good.
Have you started a walking club as of yet; I live to walk down Cove Island; Todd's Point if we can get in.
Is your team still looking for members? I just started WW today and am ready to get the program underway. Please let me know the details. Thanks
Hi all
It'll be fantastic, count on me after 6 pm not wednesday!

By Capt. Antonia Greene-Edwards, 174th Infantry Brigade Public AffairsMay 17, 2013
JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. -- Trainer/mentors assigned to the 174th Infantry Brigade, Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, N.J. train deploying Airmen on Army Warrior Tasks routinely. Thanks to a new partnership with the Air Force, the roles are reversed. This past week, nearly 70 mobilized Reserve Component Soldiers preparing for advise and assist missions in Afghanistan trained at the United States Air Force Air Advisor Academy.
In line with the Army's Regionally Aligned Force Concept, leaders and Soldiers mobilized in support of the NATO Training Mission in Afghanistan received the core knowledge and skills portion of regional awareness training at the Air Advisor Academy. The five-day condensed academic portion of the program -- part of a three pillar construct including core knowledge and skills; language, region and cultural studies; and field craft -- supports the training and mobilization of general purpose advisors.
"Some misconstrue the 'Air' in Air Advisor Academy to mean little on-the-ground experience, but that can't be farther from the truth," assured Maj. Alex Richburg, chief of the Language, Region and Cultural Studies Division of the Air Advisor Academy. "We are staffed with dozens of geographical, subject-matter experts whose real-world expertise transcends 31 country curriculums."
"If you give us 30-days advance, we can provide a regionally-aligned education and training construct tailored specifically to the unique advisor mission," asserted Richberg. "The core skills classroom lecture and scenario-based practical exercises provide the fundamentals."
The mix of Soldiers from the 108th Training Command Detachment, 95th and 75th Division, and 479th Engineer Battalion trained on topics including religious familiarization, security cooperation, and interagency partnerships. Over the course of five days, the Soldiers focused primarily on operating in a cross-culture environment.
"Understanding the cultural intricacies is first and foremost. Building relationships is by far the most important key to mission success," said Col. Tony Morales, a former advisor in Iraq, and member of the 95th Division. "This training reminds leaders and soldiers alike how we should be thinking when we are over there."
While training Reserve Component Soldiers for deployment remains First Army's mission, Col. Timothy Newsome, First Army Division East's Chief of Operations, wholeheartedly endorses reaching beyond internal assets to ensure relevant training.
"Capitalizing on subject matter experts located near our training formations just makes good sense," Newsome stressed. "This past January, the Chief of Staff of the Army said one of his top priorities was to develop the force of the future, Army 2020, as part of Joint Force 2020, a versatile mix of capabilities, formations and equipment. You can't do that without building relationships and training together as we are now doing at Joint Base McGuire Dix Lakehurst. Sharing information and establishing lines of support here, prior to deployments, will strengthen that future joint force."
Morales volunteered to deploy in support of the NATO Training Mission in Afghanistan. He said NTM-A is a great advisor opportunity, and he anticipates an assignment at the Ministry of Defense.
"My experience in Iraq taught me to be patient; not to expect concrete objectives and regimented schedules," he explained. "I understand that it is important to learn from our host nation partners, take that knowledge and apply it, rather than enforce our standards."
Spec. Walter Whitley, a chaplain's assistant from Oklahoma, reiterated Morales' point of view.
"This is more of a refresher; I can relate my experience in Iraq -- building relationships, showing respect for their culture and customs was so important," Whitley shared.
Central to cross-culture advising is being able to communicate and relate with host-nation counterparts. Interpreter support and advisor fundamentals were the focus of two morning sessions.
"The best training is first-hand, especially from the (former) interpreter," said Staff Sgt. James Snipes, Ohio. "Revisiting our culture -- things we take for granted may offend their customs -- not being overly-willing to share our personal life is a lesson to remember."
The NTM-A Soldiers complete more than 30 hours of language training. In subsequent training, Soldiers combine all language and advisor skills to participate in practical exercise scenarios overseen by 1st Battalion, 307th Infantry Regiment, 174th Infantry Brigade, First Army Division East trainer/mentors. During the collective training operations lanes, Soldiers employ all newly-learned skills and past experiences to negotiate field problems related to the mission challenges they may face in theater.
"Our goal overall is for them to be better prepared to engage the advisor mission and improve the likelihood of success," said Richberg. "If they leave the Joint Base with a heightened sense of awareness of cultural differences and better prepared to build relationships, then the objective was met."

Diabetes: 5 Steps to Total Body Care
Taking Care of Your Diabetes Every Day
In this article
Get Regular Exercise
Exercise is good for those with diabetes. Walking, swimming, dancing, riding a bicycle, playing baseball, and bowling are all good ways to exercise. You can even get exercise when you clean house or work in your garden. Exercise is especially good for people with diabetes because:
1. Exercise helps keep weight down.
2. Exercise helps insulin work better to lower blood sugar.
3. Exercise is good for your heart and lungs.
4. Exercise gives you more energy.
Before you begin exercising, talk with your doctor. Your doctor may check your heart and your feet to be sure you have no special problems. If you have high blood pressure or eye problems, some exercises like weight-lifting may not be safe. Your doctor or nurse will help you find safe exercises.
Try to exercise regularly. Exercise at five times a week for at least 30 to 45 minutes each time. If you have not exercised in a while, begin slowly. Start with five to 10 minutes, and then work up to more time.
If you haven't eaten for over an hour or if your blood sugar is less than 100-120, eat or drink something like an apple or a glass of milk before you exercise.
When you exercise, carry a snack with you in case of low blood sugar. Wear or carry an identification tag or card saying that you have diabetes.
Regular exercise such as walking and bicycling can help keep your blood sugar in a good range.
Action Steps...
If You Use Insulin
- Exercise after eating, not before.
- Test your blood sugar before, during, and after exercising. Don't exercise when your blood sugar is over 240.
- Avoid exercise right before you go to sleep, because it could cause low blood sugar during the night.
If You Don't Use Insulin
- See your doctor before starting an exercise program.
- Test your blood sugar before and after exercising if you take diabetes pills.
Take Your Diabetes Medicine Every Day
Insulin and diabetes pills and injections are the kinds of medicines used to lower blood sugar.

Second Trimester 1stTrimester 3rd Trimester
178 days to go...
To function successfully, the placenta needs a good maternal blood supply to the arteries in the wall of the uterus.
The placenta now starts a second wave of growth that will take almost six weeks. The outer layer of cells in the placenta move into the coiled, or spiral, arteries in the uterus, destroying their muscular wall. This causes the arteries to dilate, resulting in a low resistance to blood flow. Only those arteries beneath the placenta (80-100 vessels) are invaded by the placental cells in this way. If these cells move too deeply, they can fuse too tightly with the muscle of the uterus and have difficulty separating after delivery. If the wave of invading cells is inadequate, however, the low resistance to blood flow doesn't develop. This can increase the risk of the mother developing preeclampsia, and cause the baby growth problems.
Sleep remedies
Even though you may not need to go to the bathroom as much at night as you did in the first trimester, and may not yet be suffering from too many aches and pains, sleep may still escape you in the second trimester.
You may find that during this life-changing time you may be having especially vivid dreams, which can disrupt your sleep. Even if you're feeling well, it's essential to get adequate sleep: after all, your body is working hard to create another life. To get more sleep:
- Eat a late-night snack containing the amino acid tryptophan (see ... Nutritionist), which is sleep inducing.
- Don't watch TV in bed for an easier time falling asleep.
- Cut down on caffeine (see ... Nutritionist) and make non-herbal fruit tea your bedtime drink instead.
- Take a bath before bedtime, with soft music or candlelight (see below). Make sure the water isn't hot since because this can stimulate rather than relax.
Ask A... Doctor
Sunless tanning lotions are safer than sunbathing or tanning beds but they have not been tested on pregnant women so their effects aren't known. It may be better to err on the side of caution and go without a tan while you're pregnant. Bear in mind that a fake tan does not protect your skin so, if you do wear it, you'll need to wear additional protection when you are in the sun.
No tanning pills of any kind have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. They may contain canthaxanthin and can be toxic to your unborn baby, and also have been known to cause hepatitis and eye damage.
As A Matter Of Fact
It is a native Hawaiian belief that the placenta is part of the child.
It is a tradition to plant the placenta with a tree, which then grows alongside the child.

I have used the technique of looking in the .pst data file, however, still nothing older than 2 years. I had emails saved in folders that were 3 to 4 years old and I want to recover them. Where are they? I did not delete them. I am running Windows 7 which is very difficult to navigate.
Search for an archive.pst on your machine. It is likely at some point when you weren't paying attention that Outlook was being helpful and archived older content to that data file, and you can open it to find your lost material.

Internet Access Taxes Will Harm the Poor and Small Businesses
If Congress allows a federal ban on Internet access taxes to expire on Nov. 1, Americans should brace for skyrocketing prices to cover taxes on Internet services ("Clash over Internet access tax heats up," September 27).
State and local governments are lobbying furiously for the power to tax Internet access. Allowing state and local governments to pile on taxes would make use of the Internet more expensive, hurting poor families and small businesses and slowing technological innovation and the expansion of Internet services to rural areas.
Government officials also overlook that while they do not collect taxes on Internet access, they do collect taxes on the increased economic activity and improved business productivity that Internet access has made possible. Internet access taxes would be a drag on economic activity and business productivity.

Most of us look back on the early posts of our class Facebook groups with shame and bewilderment—they are testament to the one quality that freshmen at every institution embody: utter doltishness. If you've ever hoped that the species would evolve past this kind of posturing, it was in vain, for the Columbia Class of 2020 is no better than the rest of us. In fact, they might be worse: they spread their misinformation and make their friendships on GroupMe, far away from the watchful eyes of Columbia administrators (haven't you heard? Facebook is for old people.). And so, today we present to you screenshots from "Lion Order [lion emoji]." These, in particular, show how very proud these youngsters are of making it to MoHi. We hope that like us, you'll fall in love with their passion and vulgarity.

We have received the tip that an Activities Board at Columbia (ABC) representative has raised concerns about possible bias in the board. The representative, via email, claims: "We are done sitting through meetings where our diverse voices are singular; Meetings where our culture is not respected; Meetings where our values are deemed insignificant; Where insensitive comments are rampant and all I can do is sit there calmly and listen."
They then cite specific issues of friction, such as ABC's claim that Manhattan House is supported by other indigenous groups (disregarding the considerable overlap of membership in these groups), the dismissal of the Black Students' Organization's bonding trip by one representative as relatively unimportant, and a lack of urgency in distributing funds and handling logistical matters (such as changing the name of Chicanx Caucus on LionLink). They also criticized the president's comments on the University of Missouri, suggesting that the statement "student activism brings about change if you can rally voices" is dismissive of the events that led up to protests at that school. The essence of the email is that there is a "gulf of ignorance that lies between ABC and the cultural groups that exist" and that ABC does not support students of color.
The final demand is that racial diversity should be fostered through the creation of three new positions: (1) the Black Student Groups Representative, (2) the LatinX Student Group Representative, and (3) the Native American Student Group Representative.
ABC responded by allocating time to hearing similar concerns at their meeting on Wednesday, November 18, at 7:45 pm in the East Ramp Lounge in Lerner.
Update, 1:55 pm: The representative sent out an email to campus cultural groups urging them to meet on Sunday (yesterday) to "discuss our approach to this ABC meeting and Columbia at large."

This weekend I avoided homework, frat parties, and sporting events, and participated in a revelatory experience: the Intergroup Community Building Initiative (ICBI), hosted by Barnard Student Life and Columbia University Office of Multicultural Affairs.
The goal of the conference was to "build real connections across different identity communities, make new friendships, and become engaged in a community that values diversity in all of its forms," and it went above and beyond. Administrators from different areas of campus led the conference, bringing their insight from, to name a few groups: Hillel, the Intercultural Resource Office (IRC), and Greek life.
For the three dozen or so student attendees, the conference required an application including questions like, "Which social identities do you feel are integral to who you are?" and "Have you reached out to communities outside of your own since arriving to Barnard/Columbia? If so, what were the challenges and opportunities that were presented from this relationship? If not, what barriers have existed to you reaching out?" Students brought experiences and stories from their own varied backgrounds—breaking boundaries across race, religion, class, sexuality, gender, and ability.

Honoring our amorous affair with our mother magazine, The Blue and White, we hereby present an online-exclusive offering from the latest issue, on campus in beautiful blue print now. Staffer Katherine Whatley, BC '17, gives us this insider's take on Third Culture Kids (TCKs).
On the first day of the New Student Orientation Program (NSOP), everyone in our orientation group went around saying where they were from; Connecticut, Ohio, LA, New York. There were squeals and high fives when people came from the same place. Then, "I grew up in Tokyo." Silence and stares followed by, "Wait, what! No way. That is so cool! What is it like in Tokyo?"
When I tell people I grew up in Tokyo, they're surprised—and that's not even the whole truth. I was born in San Francisco to an American father and Australian mother, and moved to Tokyo when I was two. I am fluent in Japanese. Mostly, I leave out the Australian part, just so as not to really flummox that girl from Jersey.
Really, every answer I could give to that question other than, "I don't know," feels like a lie, or a cop out. I don't feel like I'm from anywhere.
I'm a Third Culture Kid (TCK). A TCK is someone who spent much of their childhood outside of their parents' cultures, and thus doesn't fully absorb any one culture. I feel connected to all the societies and peoples that I was exposed to during my childhood – in my case, American, Australian, and Japanese – but don't feel I belong to any of them. Truthfully, the community to which I belong is not those who share my ethnicity or nationality, but with other TCKs. Sometimes it's hard, at least at first, to make deep connections with students who grew up somewhere with one dominating culture and haven't had the multi-national childhood that I had.
Katherine's experiences between worlds continues (featuring sugary cereal, dirty subways, and more)

Affirmative action has been one of the most hotly debated topics in higher education since the 1960s, as well as one of PrezBo's most hotly pursued passions. Before taking the reins as Columbia's president, 'Bo.0 served as president of the University of Michigan, where his defense of affirmative action in Grutter v. Bollinger and Gratz v. Bollinger made international headlines. While his work with issues of diversity is pivotal, he still strives to maintain a balance between sustaining Columbia's educational mission and continuing his role as a first amendment scholar and firebrand defender of wide-open free speech. He believes that the two go hand-in-hand, maintaining that the press and the university are the best places to support free speech.
Yesterday, he published an op-ed in The Washington Post (where he serves as a director) on college diversity being at risk—specifically pertaining to the Supreme Court's pending decision as to whether or not they will hear Fisher v. The University of Texas at Austin. The case, in which a white student named Abigail Fisher asserted that she would have been admitted to the university if it weren't for her race, has been ruled in the university's favor by lower courts. In the piece, Prezbo stresses that the court hearing the case will be a blow to college diversity across the nation. He uses Columbia as an example for what a university should strive for in terms of diversity.
Consider Columbia, where our undergraduate student body has the highest percentage of low- and moderate-income students and the largest number of military veterans of our peer institutions, as well as the highest percentage of African American students among the nation's top 30 universities. But our country cannot rely on private universities such as Columbia to realize these benefits. Far more students attend our great public universities, where a combination of declining state support and unfavorable ballot measures pose a serious risk to our model of higher education.

Bwog's A-list correspondent Renée Kraiem tells you what went down at SGA's final meeting of the semester.
Last night's SGA meeting, the last of 2011, began with a joyful round of Secret Santas and Channukah Harriets. The evening's first guest complemented the inclusive theme of the evening.
She was Pamela Phayme, Barnard's Director of Diversity Initiatives for Student Life. Ever heard of Barnard's Biased Reporting Incident System? Yeah, nobody else has either—but that's probably because it doesn't exist yet. These days, the handling of a bias report varies based on the location in which the report is filed, and, obviously, communication between each reporting body is pretty minimal. Believe it or not, though, bias reporting isn't the primary challenge that Phayme sees facing Barnard. The greatest issue is that of "micro-aggression," or the little things that we do each day that point to the larger, often unspoken, conflicts among us.
The second guest to pass through the evening's meeting with holiday tidings was Shelby Layne, BC '13. Shelby stopped by to propose action from SGA on behalf of a not-so-micro cause that she has spent the semester investigating as part of a class called "Environmental Leadership, Ethics, and Action." She explained that we, as Columbia students, shouldn't support the conflict mines in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, whose minerals make up the electronics that play an increasingly macro part in our lives. Instead, we should look to companies like Dell, whose products don't support conflict mines and with whom Barnard has a contract. Interested? Dig through Shelby's blog. Even more interested? Shelby presents her project, hopefully on a Dell computer, at her class's culminating panel tomorrow.

You can go back to sleep! The end of Daylight Savings has delivered another sweet sixty minutes to your day, so it's now an hour earlier than you thought it was. Though it happens every year, one national news outlet or another perennially feels the need to narrate the history of this curious organizational phenomenon. The fundamental story is the same: the spread of long-distance rail travel meant that cities and states across America had to be integrated into one schedule to accomodate locomotive operations. In March the New York Times focused on the spread of time-keeping in early America, while today, the Chicago Tribune offers a fascinating sketch of a growing rift between urban and rural populations at the dawn of the 20th century.
Anyway here are some things for you to ponder, for whenever you decide to wake up:

Embracing a university policy that makes us vibrant, dynamic and exciting in news this morning, we have something for everyone.
How much we can credit the social media for the revolution in Egypt is questionable, but the latest news, a father-daughter reunion, is all Twitter. Add 'reuniting long lost families' to the site's (still short) list of redeeming qualities. (Huffington Post)
For our cricket enthusiasts (all ten of you) who wish they could have made it out to the World Cup this year, maybe watching from your floor lounges is for the best. Too busy with midterms to follow your favorite team? Or perhaps indifferent, but enough of a 'global citizen' to feign an interest? Here are the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 match results thus far. And here's something for the rest of you. (The Wall Street Journal)
The Oscars are finally on tonight! Watch for your favorite/some odd performances, to see whether 'The King's Speech' really wins everything and, most importantly, whether Anne Hathaway and James Franco will really mess up tonight. (New York Daily News)
Last in our spate of diversity for the day, the UN imposes arms embargo on Libya and financial and trade sanctions on Ghaddafi. (The Wall Street Journal)

Last night, Culture Editor Tony Gong went to CCSC's massive multicultural event "Passport to Columbia," and returned a little more appreciative of diverse foods, arts, and Columbia, the nation. His account of the night follows.
Some people (naysayers and cynics, mainly) don't think you need a passport to go to Columbia. "Columbia is a university, not a country," they may argue. Well, last night, the CCSC Campus Life Committee finally showed us that Columbia is actually a country with over twenty smaller countries inside of it. Correspondingly, we've got a pretty kickass flag (see picture to the right). And yes, you do need a passport to enroll, naysayers. More proof and pictures after the jump.

NSOP did away with the cannabis reference as they resurrected the BlaZe — last year's experimental cross-campus relay event — for the 2011 set. Bwoggers Sara Vogel and Ellen Kessel were embedded with the troops on the new, PC-polished "Take One: Ultimate Team Challenge" and filed this report:
Surrounded by Orientation Leaders baiting their charges with a rainbow of free t-shirts, we couldn't help think back to sleep-away camp, and the rite of passage that was Color War. Bunks were severed , meals were silent, friendships were tearfully won and lost to the tune of team fight songs.
We expected less drama and commitment from this jaded group for the evening's "diversity event." UTC reeked of good, clean, fun – the BlaZe's soda-pong, whipped cream, and powdered donuts were nixed in favor of a bean-bag toss, a three-legged race, and CU trivia. "There were too many innuendos last year," one NSOP committee member told us. "We wanted to keep it clean this year." But despite it being a thinly-veiled ice-breaker, from where we stood the first-years seemed genuinely into it.

The apartment was beautiful, well supplied and ideally located, the company was very professional and the location was ideal. Highly recommended
The property was nice, location of the property was very good. Lost of shop, bars and very comfortable to reach city center by walk or metro. 10 -15 min walk to Notre Dame Cathedral.
Due to fact that in August you can park your car in some streets for free we got parking next to the flat.
Bed was very comfortable, but sofa-bed was very uncomfortable.
I tried Wimdu.co.uk first time, but now I can say that not the last time. Thank you very much for nice place in Paris:)
A studiot for up to 4 people. Close to metro, supermarket, restaurants and much more.
The apartment was not clean. The bathroom is full of mold it was really dirty. The faucet in the kitchen was almost disattached kitchen sink .
Thank you for three wonderful days in Paris. Everything was so simple with the flat - picking up the key, finding the flat, leaving the flat - a brilliant system :-) And the flat is really beautiful, with a nice view over the roofes of Paris and the Eiffeltower... We had everything we needed! There is a supermarket on the opposite side of the street and a bakery on the corner. We walked to Sacre Coeur (about 25min). The next Metro station is about 5min walk - so a really great location :-)
Very good location, near the station and clean.
We had a wonderful stay in Paris and the flat was perfect for us! It is bright and lovely decorated and also close to metro, supermarkets and (very good) boulangeries.
Very good location, but small, and warm. For the price, though, an excellent value.
Good location, very quiet. The sink was not operating at first, but that got repaired.
Perfect studio for 2 adults and 2 children. As we ate at restaurants every evening, the kitchen was just fine making breakfast and lunch in. The apartment was located in the heart of Paris with great opportunity to quickly come all the well known places going by metro. The price was perfect all considered and we highly recommend it if you can live in a practical but not luxury place for a week.

Very morish cookies. My SS and i made these together. Made for RECIPE SWAP #39 - April 2010 in the Aust/NZ forum.
These were easy to make and taste great, although they could be a little sweeter. We expected, and the directions suggested, that they would spread out while baking; they didn't, so we got little thick cookies that resemble nutty shortbread rather than big round flat ones like classic chocolate chips. If that's what you like, these are terrific. Made for Aussie Swap, Dec. 09.

Sibanye Gold Surges Most in Two Months as Output Climbs 36%
Sibanye Gold Ltd. gained the most in two months in Johannesburg after South Africa's second-biggest producer of the metal said first-quarter output rose 36 percent as its mines had fewer halts than in the previous three months.
The stock rallied 4.9 percent, the most since March 7, to 8.59 rand by the close of trading.
Production climbed to 299,400 ounces in the three months through March, the Westonaria-based company said in a statement. Sibanye expects earnings per share to be at least 98 cents in the first half through June, based on the stock in issue now, and 1.27 rand using the weighted average number of shares in the period, it said.
Sibanye was spun off from Gold Fields Ltd. in February and comprises the Kloof-Driefontein complex, Africa's largest gold operation, and the Beatrix mines. About 29,000 workers walked out at the mines in the previous quarter, then won pay gains that added to rising power costs and capital spending. Output was also curbed last year by a deadly blaze at the Ya Rona shaft.
"Kloof and Driefontein, which will in future be separately reported, continued to improve through the quarter, with Driefontein in particular recovering strongly from the strikes and fire at its Ya Rona shaft in 2012," Chief Executive Officer Neal Froneman said.
Job Cuts
Sibanye is concerned about high costs at its fire-stricken Beatrix West operation. South Africa's ruling African National Congress criticized Sibanye after the company said it may cut 3,000 jobs at the operation. Talks with labor on the cuts should be concluded by June, Froneman said on a conference call today.
The National Union of Mineworkers, an ally of the ANC, last month said it will ask for a double-digit increase in pay when negotiating with the Chamber of Mines' members.
"Employees do not have an appetite for strikes," Froneman said. "Double-digit increases are not going to happen."
While the company is prepared for strikes to last three months, this isn't expected, he said.
In response, the NUM said it will ensure that a pay increase of that size is achieved. "The NUM and its members would not hesitate to go on strike in its push for better wages," Lesiba Seshoka, a spokesman for the union, said in a statement.
Sibanye, which is reviewing costs at all businesses, expects to produce 1.29 million ounces this year.
The company forecasts production will rise 14 percent to 340,000 ounces in the second quarter through June, while total cash costs will decline 5 percent to $975 an ounce. While a current debt facility precludes it from paying interim dividends, Sibanye is in talks with banks about a payout after wage talks, it said.
AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. is South Africa's largest producer of the metal.

ok thats what I need. Thank you.
Ya thats what I figured but what do I do to prevent it? I thought the relay in the mech room would prevent this.
could you please explain that to me?
please move to tech/tech
Good evening. I went to a job today where the primary bath fan was wired to a switch in the hall way. That went to a relay in the mechanical room which then went to the R&G terminals on the furnace...

Any one know of a zonex distr. in B.C,Canada.
I was thinking hi eff. and am totally wrong but can't figure how to edit my post. As soon as I posted I knew I screwed up. Sorry.
I believe the max termination seperation is 18". Going off memory I don't have the installs infront of me.
Do you guys use copper lines or just your hoses? The specs call for copper but that doesn't seem practical to me. Sorry don't mean to Hi jack.
Got back to it this morning and check the settings. The ecto for cooling stages was on default. I changed to #1 and and all was good. Second compressor fired up and and SA went down to 47 RA was 70....
energy management system. Got it!!:)
Thermostat controlled.
could it be that Y1 is your econo and your comp isn't getting the call on Y2?

now there would be a surprise.

Having trouble finding the install instuctions for this unit. Can any one tell me what the rated cfm for the different speeds are.
I was with ya HVAC Wiz until the "Mic" part. What are ya thinking?
alright thanks for the tip.
Thanks guys. Do you have any tricks to repairing the leak in such a small line? The first repair cause an obstruction. Low pressure would drop off to 0 and kick out. And yes I did run Nitro.
I've had two of these in the past 6 months spring a leak where the equalizer tube meets it's female adapter entering the 3/4 line. The only comon factor is that they both had high head pressure...
After reading the post by anmldr I got to wondering if having a high eff. furnace in the attic was a good idea. Wouldn't the condesate freezing be an issue?
I would refer to my employer. I expect my employer to do their best to keep me working so I in turn do my best to get them work.
My first trip to this job the RA temp was taken at the unit, if I recall correctly it wasn't too far off. I believe it was 67 or 68 F.
Room temp was used. There is a 4 " fresh air supply that is close to the unit(10 ') but like I said room temp was used. I do appreciate your insites on this.
I'll maybe adjust the air flow tabs for a lower speed to see what kind of affect it has on everything. Couldn't hurt I guess.
12 degree TD, with 35 degree subcooling ?
I know Markl it's making me nuts! I'm leaning towards a restriction. Should I hold off on dealoing with it until a/c season to get better readings then open...
It's heating ok but only because the Aux kicks in to raise the SA to 130 F. Before they kick in it's only 82 F. Indoor temp is 70 ish.
It shouldn't be It's a variable speed with the tabs set for 1180 cfm. I haven't tried taking charge out yet.
Any other thoughts???
liquid line temp was 71 F.
when I refer to 140 ish temp I'm referring to the temp of the suction line just after the service port at the h/p. The install manual says for 33 degrees OAT the I should be seeing 79/305 with 134 F...
Hello every one. I'm looking at a Nordyne ht4bd 036k h/p R410a. Suction pressure is 78, head pressure is 352. Suction line temp is 101 F outside air is 35 F and inside air is 70 F. I'm concerned...

ASIAN JOURNEY; Snacker's Paradise: Devouring Singapore's Endless Supper
By R. W. APPLE Jr.
Published: September 10, 2003
SINGAPORE— ''FOOD is the purest democracy we have,'' K. F. Seetoh said as we dug into breakfast bowls of bak kut teh, a peppery, restorative Teochew soup of pork ribs, mushrooms and kidneys. ''Singaporeans recognize no difference between bone china and melamine.''
Slurp, slurp. Yum, yum. The clear, aromatic broth, full of tender, close-grained pork, perked up by herbs and whole garlic cloves, was cooked in a hole in the wall next to a busy expressway and eaten at a sidewalk table. Cab drivers, teachers and a few junior executives slurped around us. Bak kut teh is the city's preferred hangover remedy, and Ng Ah Sio makes the best, which is why Mr. Seetoh took me there.
This was the start of 16 hours of almost continuous talking and eating, with the rollicking Mr. Seetoh -- ''K. F. stands for King of Food,'' he joked -- as my guide and noshing companion. Racing around this island city-state in his Mitsubishi van, with two brief pauses to shower and change clothes (eating in Singapore can be messy), we would make 18 stops before midnight.
''Don't eat, just taste,'' he kept saying. I tried, but I failed. More gourmand than gourmet, I finished much of what was put before me at a dizzying array of food stalls, storefronts and hawker centers, which are so called because they were built by the government of Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew to get open-air food-sellers, or hawkers, off the sidewalks and indoors.
Fish balls followed chwee kueh, soto ayam followed roti prata and rojak followed chicken rice, in a multicultural parade of gastronomic hits that issued, in most cases, from kitchens no longer than walk-in closets. With so little overhead to defray, gluttony was cheap: $2 a plate on average.
Singapore is one of the most food-mad cities in an ever more food-mad world, with more than 6,500 restaurants and 11,500 food stalls jammed into its 250 square miles. They offer Cantonese, Teochew, Hokkien, Hakka and Hainanese dishes -- all with roots in China -- plus curries from south India, tikkas from north India, Malay and Indonesian and Thai specialties, and adaptations and mixtures of all of them.
It adds up to a feast fit for the gods, but for the ordinary visitor, even one who has been here often, it can seem more like culinary chaos. Which is where Mr. Seetoh, 40, steps into the picture. Once by his own description ''a useless street kid,'' he skipped university, learned photography in the army.
But food was his passion, and in 1998, he and Lim Moh Cher, an equally enthusiastic eater, started a guide to street food.
They called it Makansutra, from the Malay word for eat and the Sanskrit word for a set of rules or maxims. It has grown into a small empire, including a Web site and television programs as well as an amazingly comprehensive guidebook, whose current, 456-page edition contains detailed information about thousands of eating places.
Now Singapore's unchallenged makan guru, instantly recognizable in his trademark sunglasses and his crumpled cap, Mr. Seetoh is greeted by one and all as he chugs by on the yellow Vespa or the Canondale mountain bike he uses -- when he isn't lugging an elderly visiting makan maven around town.
I THINK the knock on Singapore is way overdone. Sure, it's squeaky clean and modern, but come on: does anyone actually prefer the beggars, rubbish and shantytowns that deface many large Asian cities? Not the poor souls who live in them. It's plenty tough on miscreants, but hardly deserving of William Gibson's woundingly dismissive tag line, ''Disneyland With the Death Penalty.''
Under Goh Chok Tong, Lee Kwan Yew's successor, individualism has gained a little more breathing room. The longstanding and much-ridiculed ban on chewing gum has just been relaxed. Censorship guidelines are currently under high-level review. Nightclubs, once invisible, now throb into the wee hours. And the louchest of Maugham's or Conrad's characters would feel right at home in the seedy bars and brothels off Geylang Road, east of the city center.
Having spent many years bulldozing old buildings, Singapore is now busy saving others and putting them to new uses. One of these, a grandiose neo-Palladian pile close to the Padang, the city's central green, was once the General Post Office; now it is the Fullerton, a luxury hotel with one of the city's best upmarket dining rooms, Jade. Having spent years in headlong pursuit of Mammon, Singapore is now busy chasing culture, as exemplified by the new, $343-million Esplanade arts center, known colloquially as the Durian because its spiky profile resembles that of a local fruit.
''We are witnessing many changes,'' said Tommy Koh, the country's dynamic former ambassador to the United States and the United Nations, who helped to bring many of the new developments about.
One thing that hasn't changed is the Botanic Gardens, founded in 1859, which I would nominate as the island's top tourist attraction. Its brilliant orchid collection is the world's largest, with 700 species and 3,000 hybrids, many named after leaders like Elizabeth II and Nelson Mandela.

I'm back in suburbia with a fresh stack of business cards, and I'm off to my unofficial university reunion tonight, followed by a semi-official high school reunion tomorrow night. Fortunately, I am pretty thirsty these days so I'll have some champagne and
cocaine chow mein to carry me thought the 'oh my god it's been ages" *air kiss* *let's not pretend that we hated each other* or *didn't you sleep with everyone's boyfriend?* (Answer: Yes, yes I did. Or at least I tried to.)
Now that my mom knows I'm a stripper (I'd tell you all about it but then why would you buy my novel, due out sometime in the next millennium) I've decided that it's ok for everyone else to know, too. This includes high school English teachers and perhaps even my youngest cousins, who are starting high school in September.
I'm doing my best to take my second Coming Out in stride, and trying really hard not to embarrass anyone when I start talking about gash-flashing and pubic hairstyles.
But I usually embarrass everyone anyway, plastic shoes or no plastic shoes.
(it has to be said that at this time my roots are not unlike Mira Sorvino's in this frame)
Any tips? The more absurd, the better.

Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
A true workhorse, the super-durable Blackpowder men's snow pants are built to hold up to the demands of mountain professionals, season after season.
Free Shipping. Outdoor Research Men's Blackpowder Pant FEATURES of the Outdoor Research Men's Blackpowder Pant Waterproof Windproof Breathable Durable Fully Seam Taped Water-Resistant Zippers Includes Detachable Suspenders Belt Loops Dual-Snap Zipper Fly Brushed-Tricot-Lined Waistband Zippered Hand Pockets Zippered Rear Pocket Zippered Thigh Pocket Avalanche Beacon Pocket with Key Clip Zippered Outer Thigh Vents Zippered Inner Mesh-Lined Thigh Vents Articulated Knees Knee Pad Pockets Double as Glide Patches Reinforced Scuff Guards and Hem Reinforced Knees Stretch-Mesh Internal Gaiter with Power Strap Slot

Built to hold up to the demands of mountain professionals, the nuke-proof Outdoor Research Blackpowder Pants let you approach season after season of steep, chutes with complete confidence. Constructed of two-layer, abrasion-resistant, 200 denier Pertex Shield+ fabric, these pants are incredibly durable, breathable and completely waterproof. Articulated knees, inner and outer vents and a horde of pockets make these pants practically indestructible freeride workhorses.
- CampSaver.com
The Outdoor Research Blackpowder Pant keeps your lower bits dry while you're working and playing in the snow. Whether you're pushing up the mountain for a pre-work tour, digging pits, or setting off hand charges because that's what you do for work, these pants give you pro-level protection in a wide range of winter environments. The burly 200D nylon fabric is laminated with a fully waterproof and breathable Pertex Shield+ membrane that'll stand up the worst conditions you'll run into, and the knees, cuffs, and hem are all reinforced to take a serious beating from ski edges, rocks, ropes, and biting snow snakes. Fully taped seams take the waterproofing up a notch, and detachable suspenders and ankle gaiters keep things tight so snow doesn't sneak in through the gaps when you're getting down and dirty. Maybe best of all, the Blackpowder has a whole mess of pockets--zippered hand, thigh, back, and beacon--to keep all your key gear handy, whether you're out doing 6am patrol routes or knocking out some pre-work pow laps.
- Backcountry.com
Outdoor Research recognizes that, for some, skiing is more than a life style, its life and they have created the Men's Blackpowder Pants specifically for that in mind. You'll stay protected from the elements with the waterproof and windproof construction, yet zipper vents and breathability allow you to cool down when necessary. Since you can't be bound by "limits," they've also packed it with outstanding durability and built in RECCO reflector for if things get hairy. Bottom line, the Blackpowder pants will get you to the top of the mountain and back down again, and again, and again...

I am using The Point Theme. I am trying to change the logo from the standard text in the upper left corner for the name of my site and it is not working.
Dashboard>Appearance>Theme Options>General Settings
then it says:
"Upload your logo (Recommended size 152x60px) using the Upload Button or insert image URL"
I hit the "Browse" link and grabbed my logo that I created in my computer, it uploaded it to my Media Files but the logo up in the upper left corner has not changed at all.
What am I missing here?
Any help would be appreciated.

Walkthrough (PC)
Easy experience
Note: You can most likely do this trick with any helicopter. Do the mission where you have to steal a helicopter to find the right hunter. You are told to go fly over the Infected area and scan the Infected water towers for a suitable enemy type. Instead of doing that, fly to the Infected area and start shooting the Infected water towers that are around all infected the areas. You get about 8,000 experience points for each. Shoot 25 of them and you will get the achievement or trophy
Xbox 360
PlayStation3 for killing the Infected water towers without them hatching. As long as you properly hijack the helicopter and no one suspects you as an enemy, no one will attack you while this is going on. One water tower requires one missile. Make sure to steady it so you do not waste missiles. One flythrough with this helicopter can net you 1,192,000 experience points, assuming you can find one water tower per missile. You can get even more than that if you use your machine gun. After getting about 500,000 experience points, crash the helicopter and repeat the process again from the checkpoint.
Note: This trick only works once you acquire the ability to hijack helicopters and have Infected Vision, received later in the game. Hijack a helicopter. Once you do so, activate Infected Vision. Look for the bright orange water towers scattered throughout the level, primarily in the Infected areas. Shoot them with the helicopter's weapons. For each water tower you destroy, you will receive 10,000 experience points, which are important this far in the game. Note: Water towers respawn continuously for unlimited experience points.
An easy way to get experience points is to get a helicopter, preferably without alarm. Go to any Infected area and search for water towers containing Hunters. These are easily found by going to the area where the crows are circling. This indicates where an Infected water tower is located. Lock on to it and blow it up with a rocket. It should only take one with a direct hit. You will receive 8,000 experience points per water tower. With 200 rockets in an attack helicopter you can get 1,600,000 total experience points. Then using the machine gun, destroy forty more towers. You can then use the remaining homing missiles to blow up a hive for more points. Get another helicopter and repeat the process. The water towers will respawn after a short amount of time.
Use the following trick to gain more experience while running. Carry an army truck or another large object and run through the infected people, or collect the genetic materials that comes out of a hive.
Experience points for Orbs
The experience points awarded for each Orb that you pick up is based on how many Orbs you have already collected.
- Landmark Orbs
- 1: 2,600 each
- 10: 5,000 each (and 10,000 bonus)
- 25: 9,750 each (and 25,000 bonus)

- 125: 17, 250 each (and 60,000 bonus)
- 150: 20,000 each (and 70,000 bonus)

- 1: 5,000 each
- 10: 7,500 each (and 10,000 bonus)
- 15: 12,500 each (and 25,000 bonus)
- 35: 15,000 each (and 50,000 bonus)
Defeating Elizabeth Greene
Contrary to popular belief this Boss battle is easy. Long before the battle, purchase all upgrades that allow you to do +3 Devastator attacks, upon max health. It is also a good idea to get all the upgrades you can via "Consume". The Boss is massive. Notice that under her life bar are other bars. These are some what the Boss' stabilizers, making her vulnerable only after you have severed them. At the beginning of the battle she will do a scream attack. Be careful. Scale up a building or whatever else you have to do. It is very easy to avoid. You will also have Hunters and Infected chasing you. Use the full body armor and claws/blade. Max out your health by running around and consuming. It is easy and the only issues you might have are Hunters, though with the upgrades one hunter can nearly boost your life to max, allowing for maximum Devastator attacks. This is one of your first Devastator attacks you will learn. Scale a building, boost over to her, fall, and initiate the attack. You will see quickly that the Boss' stabilizers are being damaged. Note: Every round the stabilizers' life will increase, meaning that you have to follow the tactics in the same way, and it will just take slightly longer. Strike her with the Devastator. You should have a chance for more, unless she does multiple attacks (green orbs that track you, spitting concrete and screaming). The armor reduces the amount of damage inflicted, allowing you enough time in between attacks to initiate the Devastator again. Once the stabilizers are done, she will fall and you can attack normally. She will then retreat (leaving you plenty of red life orbs to consume) before shooting out of the ground again, with more stabilizer life and "backup". Ignore the backup. This tactic works nicely, but if you get low on health, run away from her view and keep consuming. After she falls a total of three times you will have defeated her.
Defeating Supreme Hunter
- Quickly switch to Armor and Blade after the cinematic ends. Having Infected Vision will help. Stay away from the Boss until he starts to jump. After he lands, attack him with an Air Blade Slash. He will become stunned after a few good hits. Grab him and repeatedly punch. If you are taken down to critical level, use a Devastator move to stun him.
- As soon as the battle begins use your armor power and hook power. Immediately begin to use one of the following tactics.
- Tactic 1
- Keep him locked on. Hold [Jump] for a moment to get reasonable air. As soon as you jump, hold [Attack] button and allow it to fully charge. Then, immediately repeat. This should take four stuns to kill him. Do not bother disguising as the military will barely bother with you.
- The first stun
- The Supreme Hunter will be stunned very quickly from this. As soon as you are locked onto him and press [Grab], you should hook onto him and immediately be able to begin punching him. Instead of button bashing, press [Attack] at an easier rate than you normally would. It will register more and you will attack quicker. After the first stun, which comes very quickly in the battle, he will finally get the chance to use most of his attacks out on you.
- His attacks
- Normal Attack: His normal attack is usually swiping at you with his fists and will fling you into the air. These are very easy to dodge. If you are having trouble, try jumping then air dashing away or over him.
- Throwing: Around the battle area are several explosive props which he will pick up and throw at you if you are far away. This is rare however, and he will usually miss.
- Spike Attack: When he uses his attack, it is a very good idea to jump and double air dash away from him as much as possible. As soon as the spikes have shown themselves, it is useful to run at him quickly and get a few good charged slashes into him with your blade. You should not need to do this until after stun two.
- Devastator: This is very easy to dodge. He will stand still and begin to spasm a bit before he unleashes his Devastator. Do not stand close to him during this time, as he can unleash an instant kill on you even when wearing armor. Instead, lock onto him and air dash around him in a circular radius until the main large tentacles have tried to hit you. Once they have missed (there are about three or four of them), find a spot clear of the large tentacles and change to blade power. Begin swiping at him with slightly charged blade attacks. You should be able to get your first hits into him while the tentacles are still moving out and not retracting. You can also get hurt while they are retracting; try not to run into them.
- Repeat "Tactic 1" and counter his Devastators when you can. You will eventually stun him for a second time and you should encounter a cinematic during or slightly after the second stun. After the cinematic, you will realize that you have a time limit to kill him. Do not worry about it. Just repeat the first tactic and he will eventually die. You should not need to use "Tactic 2" unless playing on Hard mode or running low on time.
- Tactic 2
- Wait for the Supreme Hunter to land after a jump and slash him from behind with a few slightly charged blade attacks. As he turns to attack you, jump and air dash over him. You may choose to aerial attack him with a kick or slash him and then jump away. This will lower his health quickly, combined with attacking him during Devastators and spike attacks. This is advised only if you are really running low on time and have just finished stunning and hitting him.
- Depending on whether you are still using "Tactic 1" (recommended), you should be able to quickly finish off the hunter within two more stuns. There are four stuns in total. Each stun should take away about 25% of his life under the Medium difficulty setting. If you are using the blade tactic, you will probably encounter him for longer and may get less stuns on him.
- Healing
- You should not need to heal before the cinematic. However, if you do get hurt badly during the second half and there are no people to consume, either stay with "Tactic 1" and jump kick him, or run to the part of the ship with the turrets (the tower object) and jump behind it into the water. As you jump back out, press Forward against the ship and you should hit the ship while coming back up and fall back into the water. Try to press [Grab] onto the side of the ship and heal there if possible. The Supreme Hunter should not be able to hurt you there. Just remember you have a time limit.

Try to press [Grab] onto the side of the ship and heal there if possible. The Supreme Hunter should not be able to hurt you there. Just remember you have a time limit.
Destroying the Bloodtox Filters
- This battle cannot be won on the ground; you will need a helicopter. Make sure your health is completely full. Note: At this point there are somewhat infected areas and fully infected areas. You will not find any military in the fully infected areas, so have at it there. Also, have the Whip upgrade. Take your time on this one; the longer you spread the mission out, the easier it will be. If at any time your health gets low, bail from the chopper and replenish it. Once on the roof when you start at the facility, turn to the right to see two guards on top of a building across the street shooting rockets down at the crowd. Use your whip and kill both of them. This will save a lot of frustration later, because those missiles were heat seeking you will be in a chopper. You will need a helicopter for the next step. If there are no helicopters nearby, make enough commotion for a strike team to be called in. Once the chopper is in distance, use your whip and take it over. Every time you take over a heli, you will have about a 30 second grace period before the other choppers start firing at you; use it. Select the heat seekers and blow the other helicopters away; wait for your threat to go down before you go into the Facility airspace. Once your threat is down, fly over to the Bloodtox Facility. The first things you need to take out are the guard towers. There are about eight to ten of them. They are on all sides and corners. They also have heat seeking missiles. Once the towers are down, the facility is completely open. Beware of strike teams, etc. Save your heat seekers for them and get an aim on them before they do whenever they appear. When all the towers are down, the primary objectives are to shoot those small boxes near each of the tanks. They have red blinking lights on them, and there are exactly eight of them. Note: There are other threats in this mission. One of them is the tank that will constantly shoot at you, but not with heat seekers. However, some of the missiles people fire from the ground are. Listen to your helicopter warnings and keep an eye out for other choppers that are getting close to you. The more you take out first, the better.
- Go to the Bloodtox facility in a helicopter from the strike team. Evade the attacks while destroying at least three to five filters. Then, steal a black tank while in a military disguise. Enter the facility without kicking off the disguise meter. When inside the facility, begin destroying the filters. Destroy the targets very quickly, before the tank is destroyed. If the tank explodes, escape and recover your health. Go back with another tank and repeat the process.
Helicopter jumping
To do this trick you will need the ability to Jump Kick so that you can fly towards the first helicopter of The Strike team. You can also use the Whipfist's Grab upgrade to latch onto an enemy helicopter. Double Jump can also be useful. To start, jump up and Jump Kick or use the Whipfist Grab to latch onto the first helicopter. Do the button event to kill the pilots. Fly up as high as possible and look for the next target. Make sure to use the Lock On ability. Jump out of the current helicopter and Jump Kick towards the next helicopter. You can keep doing this as long as there are helicopters. If you fall, quickly use the Whipfist Grab. Note: This can be very challenging but if done successfully you can attack numerous helicopters without ever touching the ground.
GlidingIf you have Double Airdash and Glide, by using the Glide, Dash, Glide Dash trick you will be able to reach much farther distances.
Armored Glide
Once you obtain the Armor Defense power, you will be able to use this trick. It can be used to catch up and attack enemies with force. When you get close to an enemy that you can glide over him, revert to normal Alex then initiate a glide. While gliding, activate your Armor Defense power. This will allow you to maintain your glide as long as you do not release it or dash. This will allow you to glide over stationary enemies and attack with more force. This is especially useful when fighting Elizabeth Greene (the Times Square Boss).
Better landings
When jumping, use a dash just before landing. If timed correctly and if the drop was not too great, you should land at near full speed.
Attack animations
When consuming enemies, use different attack powers such as the Whipfist or the Blade to see different animations. Each attack power has a few animations to show off.
Thermobaric tank
If you want to use or find a Thermobaric tank after the mission where one appears, go to the event "Rolling Thunder". Hop in and cancel the event to use the tank. If you cannot find it or do not know if you have unlocked it yet, pause game play, select "Events", then "Kill" and scroll down until you find "Rolling Thunder".
Remaining undetected
To remain anonymous and destroy the detectors, hijack a chopper and let your disguise meter cool down. Keep at a distance and make sure that the disguise meter is low. Target the detectors and fire the turrets. This will allow you get to the base without detection.
Finding Infected water towers
- Squawking crows usually circle the Infected water towers, making them easier to find.
- As soon as you unlock the Infected Vision you can see the water towers that are infected. They will glow the orange color like any other infected.
Avoiding death
When your health is low, do not fight with hunters. Climb up to higher building so that hunters cannot reach you, or stand and watch as the military kills all hunters.
Extended changeHold the D-pad when using the armor power, vision power, shield power, or attack powers to see an extended change in disguise. Each power has their own mini-cinematic. You can test it with or without the armor on.

The Bombers took their winnings ways to road Wednesday night by extending their current win-streak to four games with a convincing 11-3 victory over the Coppell Copperheads. The Brazos Valley offense was electric during the entirety of the game, and the fantastic pitching we've seen over the past few nights continued, as every facet of the Bombers appeared to be clicking on all cylinders.
The story of the evening was the Bomber offense lighting up the scoreboard for eleven runs on ten hits. The top of the fourth inning was especially good to the Bombers, who saw fifteen plate appearances during the frame. During that inning, Brazos Valley displayed great patience, working seven walks, and power by way of a Justin Padron RBI double and a Christian Soberanes grand slam home run. The Copperhead starter, Jacob Lara, was pulled after just three and two-thirds, after coming into the contest with a 2-0 record and a spotless 0.00 ERA. Both Trey Porras and Padron contributed with outstanding nights at the plate. Padron had a three hit game, including his RBI double, while Porras had four hits and reached base all five at bats. With the comfort of a big lead early, Drew Olsen had a wonderful outing and was able to breeze through the Coppell lineup, pitching six strong, fanning five, and allowing no runs.
The team will finish the second half of their series at Coppell Thursday night as they look to extend their current streak to five consecutive wins. The Bombers will return home Friday night to face Alexandria this weekend. Friday's game is Auction Night at Brazos Valley Bank Ballpark, where fans will be able to bid on authentic game-worn jerseys from their favorite players. Saturday night's game is "Bark in the Park" night and will feature the first Kids Free Saturday, where both kids and dogs will get in FREE, and the kids will enjoy free food and tickets to the UPA Kids Zone at the park.
