These woods are often the destination for our family outings. It is so relaxing to sit in a rocker on the deck of the boathouse, sipping a lemonade, and watching the geese make rounds around the lake. Sometimes we rent a paddle boat and go out on the water ourselves. One day, we might try some fishing.
The kids used to love feeding the varieties of duck and geese from the shore, but that has recently been banned, and with good cause. We have a large population of Canadian geese in these parts, that are wonderful to see, but shouldn't be here year round, like they are. They are migrating birds that need to be traveling up and down the coast, seasonally, following food sources, and gathering at mating and nesting grounds. However, when food is so easily found at the end of a human hand, why bother? So they stay, and they multiply, and their bodily waste pollutes the lake, killing the vegetation. Without the water plants to oxygenate the water, the fish die. Without that source of food, the numbers of some of the predatory animals will decrease. It's all a delicate ecosystem that needs to be protected.
My favorite forest activity is to just wander about, taking photos of Mother Nature, in all her many outfits and accessories. You'll be seeing a lot of those photographs here soon. I've been saving them up for just such a stage.

I have been to 43 states. Thanks to my parent who dragged me across country about half a dozen times to visit "supporters." I actually boycotted the northern central states! Sorry Jamie! No plans to visit the rest, unless I forfeit the arbitrary boycott and go see Jamie in Minnesota or get a craving to see the Mount Rushmore.

Happy Spring!
Today was Spring Solstice (the first of spring). This is one of my favorite times of the year. I love seeing the buds of green emerge from the branches and smelling the blossoms of jasmine as I walk out the front door. Audrey is loving her first spring. She all but drags me outside several time a day to go on a walk and cannot contain her excitement at being outside.

The Apple iOS 6 for the users
The new operating system called the iOS 6 does not need a password for the free of cost applications. You will not need to enter the password all the time, while you are downloading the application.
After you have connected your iTunes account to the iOS 6 to the iPad, iPod and iPhone, you will not need to enter the details again and again. You will not be bothered with a password. If you have bought an application, then you don't need a password again.
The technical features
1: In the iOS 5.1 operating system, the clever hackers found a backdoor by which, they could steal an application, without paying a single cent. That did cost the application developers millions of dollars in profits.
2: Apple has released a statement saying that it won't happen again. This loophole has been rectified.
3: It was claimed that Apple was working on a feature in iOS 6 by which, they could use Bluetooth 4.0 for acting as a bridge between many devices. The iPod can do many small tasks. It can call from an iPhone running on iOS 6.
4: Apple has now removed the YouTube application from iOS 6 forever and Google has been left in the dark. It is emphasizing on building its own application store.
5: It is not confirmed, whether the nine pin connector dock will be available or not. There is no way of saying that. But, there was a possible hint of Device Supports 9 pin. This was seen in beta releases of Apple's new operating system.
6: The iOS 6 is fast becoming popular, because it doesn't rely on mobile connection corporation's approval for receiving the updates. It does that pretty much on its own. Now, eighty percent of the Apple's 365 million users have the new operating system in hand. The ratio for Android users is 7 percent. So, once the iOS 6 is released into the market, expect a huge turnover.
7: The iOS 6 can even work on iPhone 3GS and afterwards. The iPad and iPod touch are also in order. Check the Apple store for iOS 6 compatibility.
8: The latest iOS 6 beta 3 has fixed up many flaws seen the last operating system. The keyboard has improved a lot and navigation editing capabilities are also worked out.
9: But, once again, the iOS 6 beta 2 was jail-breaked by many developers, so you can run them on previous iPads and iPhones as well.
The final word
So, as we can see that iOS 6 is here to turn the tides and tables. It can be used in most of the electronic equipment, Apple had released years ago.
Then again, it will not require the help of a mobile connection corporation for receiving updates. That being said, it will be updating the Smartphone and other Apple merchandise itself.
Apple has a market name for itself and it has a hard time in maintain its number one spot in the tech market, where everyday, there are new competitors everyday.

In February 2005, the Super Bowl was coming to Jacksonville.
Yes, that Jacksonville, as in Jacksonville, Fla., as in the biggest city per square mile in Florida Jacksonville.
And after covering the Jaguars for the second year I was working at the Palatka Daily News, I was excited to cover the big game. One problem -- my boss decided he wanted to cover the big game. Talk about being shot down in your hopes of doing great things.
So I wanted to contribute in some way to any Super Bowl coverage we would do. The problem was that my boss only put credentials in for himself and our photographer who was going up there to shoot the game. In other words, there was no backup plan or a backup pass for that matter in case something happened to him.
Greeeeeeeeat. But I was undaunted nonetheless. He could have the game, but I wanted to do one feature, something that would be interesting for our readers and might provide for great stories to put into our paper. And then I knew what I wanted to write about.
I knew that NFL Films was going to make the annual pilgrimage to the league's biggest game and I wanted to talk to the man who was at the forefront of NFL Films, the company's face. And though it was Ed Sabol who started NFL Films, it was his son Steve who took the company to the next level, pushing the brand on anyone and everyone within earshot. Though those in the know knew Ed Sabol and his contributions, most people knew his son as the embodiment of NFL Films. So I contacted NFL Films on the Monday of Super Bowl week, when things really began to warm up in northeastern Florida.
I got his secretary, who told me she would get a message to him. Well Tuesday came. No word yet. I called the offices in Mount Holly, N.J. again. And I got the same secretary. I told her I was wanting to talk to Steve Sabol about NFL Films and how things work during the week of the Super Bowl and actual game day. She apparently called in to Mr. Sabol's office to see if he was busy. He was and he couldn't get back to me, but he apparently told her to see about Wednesday.
I told her I was available, but I had a feeling she would tell me he would talk to me very early, which I really wasn't looking forward to.
"Can we make it late in the morning, like about 11 o'clock?" I asked. She checked with Sabol. All seemed fine. I left it at that.
Now you have to understand my routine and schedule. There are very few "9-to-5" jobs in the business, especially in the sports department where most of the local sports is taking place either in the late afternoon or in the early evening. So I have one of those schedules that has me going in at about 6 in the evening and leaving around 1:30 in the morning. Not exactly a "home-happy" schedule, but I was living with a girlfriend who worked at a sheriff's office from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. This was nirvana in that regard.
Well that early day, I didn't get to sleep until about 5:30 in the morning. Since my girlfriend was working a second job that had her jumping from her first job to the second in Jacksonville, I had really no way of being woken up other than maybe leave the television on, which I did.
Don't ask me how, but I woke up at about 10:05 a.m. on Wednesday, February 2, 2005. I was lacking from sleep and knew that I wasn't going to be at my best on 4 1/2 hours of sleep. Somehow, I dragged myself into a shower, got dressed and headed to the office. It was 10:50 a.m. Turned on the computer and looked on the Internet, waiting for the phone to ring.
I was anxious. C'mon phone ... ring already!! It was 11 a.m. Then it became 11:05, then 11:10. And suddenly my eyes got heavy from waiting. While there was a small amount of people in the newsroom at that hour, I literally dozed off waiting for a phone call. I was asleep literally in front of my computer for about five minutes. It was 11:15 and before I can get my bearings, there was the phone no more than a foot away from my desk and almost two feet from my ear. The red message light was blinking.
Oh f**kin' faaaaan-tastic! And I dreaded hitting the button and numerical code to hear the message, knowing it was Steve Sabol asking where the hell I was. But I did ... and it was Steve Sabol calling, leaving a very polite message and asking me if I could call him back as soon as possible. It was Wednesday after all and I knew that it was either that night or Thursday that he was getting on a plane and heading from Philadelphia to Jacksonville.
It took me about 45 seconds to a minute to get my bearings. Then I made the phone call back to NFL Films. The same secretary I talked to for two days answered and she knew to send me into Mr. Sabol's office.
"This is Steve Sabol," came an answer on the other end of the phone.
"Mark Blumenthal from the Palatka Daily News in Florida. Nice to finally catch up with you. How are you doing this morning?
"I'm doing fine. Making final arrangements here before heading down your way for the Super Bowl."
I asked how much time we had to talk. He was willing to give me a half hour. I wasn't sure 30 minutes was going to sufficiently be enough to hear him talk about NFL Films. What I did was put the onus on his telling of how NFL Films came about, how it evolved and what he does for Super Bowl week with the crew of cameramen and editors.
So I asked him about the very beginning and how it all came about. Steve Sabol was a fabulous football player in high school in the late 1950s and he eventually went on to Colorado College in Colorado Springs. His father pretty much taped everything he did on and off the football field, and from there, Ed Sabol had a passion to film football as a real profession. The New York Giants and Green Bay Packers were playing at Yankee Stadium in the 1962 NFL Championship and Ed Sabol was one of a handful of people who put in a bid for the game.
"There wasn't much interest in taping the 1962 NFL Championship," Steve started. "There were only four bidders. They were all separate film companies and the price for the previous year's NFL Championship (between the same two teams) was $1,500. Then my dad, who really wanted to do the taping, doubled the bid and we got it for $3,000. My mom said he was not very smart, but he didn't care and he wanted to do it."
The problem, though, according to Sabol, was his dad's lack of any big-time film work. NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle took a look at Ed Sabol's resume and knew he may have had a little problem.
"Pete Rozelle was excited that someone would open the bid that high," Steve said. "Then he read my dad's resume -- under 'experience' was 'filming my 14-year-old son.' Rozelle was concerned. My dad was selling overcoats, but he could sell his passion. He wanted to make football films desperately. So over a four-martini lunch, he convinced Pete to get him to film the game and the beginning of a long relationship between Pete and my dad began."
And it was that $3,000 investment to do the '62 title game that was the start of what would be a major film industry. Meanwhile, Steve Sabol was still in Colorado, finishing up his sophomore year at Colorado College with the team's final game against Idaho State.
"My father told me, 'You've been out there and all you've done in that time is go to movies and play football,'" Sabol said. "So I quit school and came home (to New Jersey) to help him. It took two to three years to develop a style for our films. The first film we did was with John Facenda (the legendary Philadelphia-based broadcaster with the passionately deep voice) and it was shot in slow motion. It took a while to do what people recognize as 'theatrical.'"
Sabol is one of very few people who was able to attend the first 46 Super Bowls. And he has long-lasting memories of those games, including the first one at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum between the Green Bay Packers and Kansas City Chiefs, a game most people didn't even think was going to be close and figured to be a Packers blowout that January afternoon in 1967.
"The game was pretty hyped up," he said. "It was a carnival ... a freak show. The stadium wasn't filled because everyone thought it was going to be a 70-0 win for the Packers. There wasn't a sense of real competition, but (Packers coach) Vince Lombari was really nervous. He didn't want to play the game initially. Frank Gifford tells the story that he interviewed Lombardi before the game and that his clothing was so wet and he was shaking like a leaf. He felt if he lost, the whole Packer legacy would be ruined."
And though most people point to Super Bowl III when the New York Jets of the American Football League stunned the heavily favored Baltimore Colts at the Orange Bowl in 1969, Sabol was quick to say Super Bowl IV between the Minnesota Vikings and Chiefs in 1970 was a bigger game for a bigger reason.
"When the Jets beat the Colts the year before, everyone thought it was a fluke," Sabol said. "But in Super Bowl IV, parity was born out. The Vikings were a 14-point favorite over the Chiefs. There was no equality between the two leagues, but that game was a butt-whippin' (a 23-7 Chiefs win). (Coach) Hank Stram's Chiefs were one of the greatest teams of the modern era, but for some reason they are forgotten. They had a Hall of Fame quarterback (game MVP Len Dawson), linebacker (Bobby Bell), a great wide receiver in Otis Taylor and a fine defense headed by Buck Buchanan and Johnny Robinson."
That game highlighted the quirks and sounds of Stram, who was miked up, giving the famous lines "Keep matriculating the ball down the field Lenny," "Let me ask you something Mr. Official. How can six of you miss a call like that?" and the famous "65-toss power trap" that led to Mike Garrett scoring a touchdown and Stram yelping wildly on the sideline, repeating the scoring play over again and yelling, "Atta way boys!"
It was that 30-minute highlight real that put NFL Films and Super Bowl chronicling on the map forever. But that day at New Orleans' Tulane Stadium came at a high price. Sabol told me about the experience of being in New Orleans for the first time during the first full week of January 1970 and how awful it was.
"We had 20 rooms booked at our hotel and to show the clout the game had back then, they canceled 10 of the rooms because of a dry cleaners convention," he said vividly remembering that week as if it were only yesterday. "One of our assistant cameramen was a doctor. He got us rooms at a charity hospital, so 15 people were staying at the hospital. The worst thing that happened was our main camerman shared a room with a guy brought in because of a heart problem and the guy died in the middle of the night. The cameraman was so upset, he didn't want to shoot the game, but he took time to get over what happened and he was professional about it. However, he was still so distraught that he shot the first quarter in the wrong camera speed and didn't realize it. And that was my initial experience in New Orleans."
And Sabol minced no words when it came to New Orleans -- he wasn't a fan of the Crescent City whatsoever.
"It's a horrible place. We've been robbed three times there," Sabol said less than seven months before the tragedy that was Hurricane Katrina. "We had 10 (crew) people who suffered food poisoning one year. It's awful, it's seedy and it's the kind of place you'll see Lee Harvey Oswald in the corner of a bar. My hotel room was robbed and for Super Bowl XV in 1981, our equipment was stolen."
Sabol had a favorite place for Super Bowls. To him, it was a no-brainer.
"Los Angeles," he told me. "They start the game in the daytime at 3 p.m. and the Rose Bowl has a beautiful backdrop to it. The crowd blends right into the field of play. There's no sights of ambulences or forklifts in the background. L.A. is a big city that can handle the game."
But his mind wandered back to another Super Bowl in New Orleans at Tulane Stadium, the place they held the game before the Superdome was erected. It was Super Bowl IX between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Vikings, a game won by the Steelers, 16-7, for their first title on a grey, yucky day with game-time temperatures at 46 degrees.
"It was colder than what the temperature actually was," he said. "I was wearing an Air Force jacket that I had to buy two days before the game because it was so cold that week in New Orleans."
Before there was ESPN to show all those amazing Super Bowl films, Sabol and his father found various "venues" to show the artsy films the two of them made.
"I remember so distinctly the first seven, eight, nine years of NFL Films, the only way we could show games was if you were a member of the Rotary Club or the Kiwanis Club or the Elks Lodge," he said. "We do a 16-mm film and take it to various conventions in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This was underground film. We were strictly a mom-and-pop company. If we had a championship game (to show), you'd call to get the game and we'd bring along Frank Gifford or Don Meredith or Pat Summerall to show the film.
"Then when we got to TV, it would be shown at 6 in the morning when our audiences were milkmen, bartenders, parking-lot attendants -- people who were up late or getting up early. Then ESPN came along and spread the films out in various times and we became nationally recognized."
For the first Super Bowl, Sabol said there were 20 employees at the L.A. Coliseum to do the filming. For Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, there were over 100 people going. He told me what he did was allow the cameramen there shooting the game to be their own "artists" and to "create" their art on film.
"I was a cameraman and I don't believe in overdirection," he told me. "I talk to them briefly and then send them off to do the game. It's like sending 13 artists out there and each comes back with their own interpretation of what they see. Then, after the game, it's up to myself and editors to take the tape and present the story in an enlightening and entertaining way."
It wasn't a surprise to me that college kids wanted to make their mark shooting NFL games. And again, Steve Sabol let me in on the secret.
"To work with us, they have to work as an intern first," he said. "We must get 350 to 400 applications from people, then another 200 for internships. It's like getting into Harvard. It's flattering to get all the letters."
And with those he had on staff, he took them under a precious wing and let them know it's OK to fail as long as they understood what it was they were doing.
"If you see them trying and they're not the best at what they do, but they get along with people, we give them a shot. It's like a football player who may not run the 40 that fast or have a great vertical leap, but if they are a good person and willing to work hard, you put them in talent coordination. It takes a while to become a talented filmmaker."
It was beyond the 30 minutes I was allotted to chat with him by now. And I heard this man talk about his passion like a big-time director would. What Scorsese, Spielberg and Cameron were to the big screen, Steve Sabol was to the small screen. And unlike those other big-time directors, Sabol never had to give a directorial cue to his "actors." I asked him if he had done anything that wasn't football-related.
"I did a film for NASA on the 10th anniversary of man landing on the moon (in 1979), and they wanted me to make the film equivalent to what it's like when the Dallas Cowboys won a big game. That was fun."
Ultimately, I heard something from Steve Sabol that I could relate to -- he couldn't really do anything else other than the craft he became famous for doing.
"I love the job of making movies, but I'm not a director that wants to expand beyond football," he said. "I'm a one-trick pony and I love football."
I could've talked to Steve Sabol into the afternoon hours about the technology that made his job better and easier over the years or about the rise of the Steelers and San Francisco 49ers dynasties or even the budding dynasty of the New England Patriots. But ultimately, he saw the clock on his wall in his office.
"I have to cut this short because I have a flight to catch," he said. "Anything else?"
"Well, one thing," I said. "How long do you see yourself doing this for?"
He wasn't hesitant about his answer one bit.
"I hope I can keep doing this as long as I'm coherent and can make good film," he said. "Picasso and Matisse painted into their 80s. I hope I can do the same thing."
And that was it. I thanked him. He was gracious in saying I was welcome. And he was off to Philly Airport to head to Jacksonville to work on the filming of Super Bowl XXXIX, a game that I eventually got to cover when my boss got double pneumonia that week. It was a heck of a thrill that I hope I'll do again in my lifetime.
I never saw Steve Sabol at the Super Bowl, but that was OK. He was busy doing what he was there to do and I was as well.
Sabol wanted to do his craft into his 80s like Picasso and Matisse. Unfortunately on September 18, 2012, he lost his 18-month battle with brain cancer, only two weeks from his 70th birthday. It gave me a chance to reflect on that late morning in February 2005 when I got to hear him talk about his passion in a 45-minute phone conversation that I no doubt could've heard all day. By the end of the conversation, I was convinced the man had a story for every occasion, no matter where he was or what audience he was in front of.
To this day, he's the most interesting sports figure I ever interviewed. It will not be the same to watch any archived NFL Films on ESPN or the NFL Network, which began broadcasting in 2005. Steve Sabol will always be the face of NFL Films, even though it was his father who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011 and Steve Sabol gave the speech, even as he was fighting brain cancer, wanting badly to do that one task.
Someday, Steve Sabol will join his dad there even though he won't be able to celebrate it.
He proved to me he was a Hall of Fame person that morning. And his work will live on forever through NFL Films. Because that combined group of young and veteran cameramen and editors are as passionate and dedicated as Steve Sabol was.
And that, my friends, is one hell of a legacy to leave behind.

My current Stromung muffler is toasted.. Silver Dollar size holes in two places.
I would like to hear recommendations for a replacement based on two criteria:
1. Good Sound (it can be loud)
2. Price
I know this is probably a "discussed-to-death" topic on this board, but I'm new to the M3 world and I'm trying to get a variety of opinions.
I've searched the archives, but have not found enough info to make a decision.
Thanks in advance to all that respond,

Bad Ice cream is one of the most popular that inspires several online visitors to play it again and again. This excellent game series includes 40 levels, so you can have to clear it one by one. Along with this, you can choose the ice cream type from vanilla, strawberry or chocolate. The main aim o this two player game is to obtain all the different selections of excellent fruits in every stage without getting eaten of hit by roaming animals. The keys or option used in this game series are really simple. Now, the game developers offer the third chapter of this game, known as Bad Ice Cream 3. It is an excellent addition, which allows you to gain entertainment and fun.
When you decide to play this game process, you must know some important game instructions. The following guidelines help you to know about the game controls in an easier manner. You can click on the "CLICK TO LICK" option. And then, you can click the "PLAY" button. After that, you can properly set the play number by using "SAPCE and Q" keys. The "GO" buttons help you to precede the level selection screen. Your main goal is to get all fruits. The control of 1st player includes "Arrow Keys" to move and "SPACE" to action. The second player can use "W, A, S, D" to move and use "Q" for action. Moreover, you can click the button available top of your game screen to pause your game.

I have been playing in a folksy/bluegrassy/whatever band in Milwaukee for a little over four years now (shameless self promotion, hey). Any musician in the city will probably tell you that one of the best things in the 414 are our summer street festivals. Not only does it give us an excuse to get out in the sun and day-drink in a socially acceptable environment, but it also allows us to reach a new audience who might not attend our later evening shows. This makes these performance slots coveted and not the easiest to obtain. Because of this, I have compiled some tips and tricks for up-and-coming bands to nab a spot on a bill next summer.
1. Plan ahead. Like, really absurdly almost-too-far ahead.
I'll be the first to admit that I am bad at this. A lot of these fests solidify their lineups at least six months in advance. It doesn't matter how polished your electronic press kit is. It doesn't matter how well-worded and polite your email is. If you don't reach out months ahead of time, someone will have already beaten you to the punch. Check the festivals websites or social media accounts in the winter (and even the fall). They may post something saying they are looking for submissions, but they might not. Regardless, if there isn't snow on the ground, you're going to be SOL.
2. Perform at bars/venues near the festival you want to book.
Some festivals do all of their booking centrally, while others have individuals booking for separate stages. For example, if you really want to be a part of Locust Street Fest, you should be trying to play at Linneman's and/or the Riverwest Public House throughout the year. These places book their own acts. It is not only wise, but entirely essential, to basically prove your worth prior to booking time. If you can fill their rooms during any other time of the year, you can demonstrate an asset you will be to their festival. Another piece of this, which I hope goes without saying, is that you need to build a good rapport with these employees. Be courteous. Don't get black out drunk and pee all over the bathroom. Don't disrespect the bartenders. Actually care about the lives of these people. They help your local music scene more than you might know (and they usually have some super cool stories to tell).
3. Volunteer.
I never thought about how much prep work goes into a street festival until I talked about it with one of my bandmates. Set up and tear down is impossible without the help of people from the community. If you can help out, it means you might have to wake up way earlier than you wanted to on a Saturday, but suck it up and deal with it. Another thing that should go without saying is to not do this self-servingly. If you don't actually want to improve the quality of these festivals and are only wanting to help so you can get your foot in the door, it will be apparent.
4. Have a social media presence.
Honestly, this might be the most important. If your band doesn't have a Facebook page and somewhere to stream at least one song, drop everything you're currently doing and set that up. Invite all of your friends to like your page. Have your friends invite their friends. I can almost guarantee that this will be taken into consideration. If you have a page with a handful of likes and one post a month, you're doing it wrong. Build your internet presence. Do you need a Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, blog, website, etc.? Not necessarily, but it sure as hell doesn't hurt. If you suck at social media, delegate these duties to someone else in your band. Just make sure it happens.
5. Don't publicly complain about not getting the gig.
Nothing is private on the internet. If you have posted something that can be captured with a screenshot, assume it has been. Also, us musicians can be pretty full of gossip (guilty here). If you wanna blow off some steam, buy yourself a 12-pack of Hamm's and shotgun a few cans and blast your playlist of choice. Go for it, annoy your neighbors for a little bit, but don't post about it online. Don't complain to your possibly trustworthy friends, because they'll blab about how bad you're taking it. Take a nap. Call your mom. Do whatever.
6. Don't suck.
This is a tough topic of conversation. If you're following the above protocol and are consistently coming short, take a step back and accept the fact that you might not be what they're looking for. It might be a genre thing. They might take into consideration the kind of things that are currently popular. The hardest thing to swallow might be that you're just not that good. The cool part of that is that you can change it. Practice. Listen to your music from an outside perspective. Ask your best friend of many years who is great at that "tough love" thing to give you their honest opinion. Bonus points in this category go for not sucking as a person, which ties into tip #5. Adults talk just as much as they did in high school, and everyone is going to know that you're not fun to be around if you're a little turd all the time. This leads me to #7.
7. If you get to perform, don't be a diva.
I have a small hand in booking shows. There is one band that comes to mind that I will refuse to work with because of their attitude (all of my friends reading this know who I'm talking about, so I guess it's not that anonymous). They draw. They get booked a lot. I'm not fond of their music, but they definitely don't suck at what they do. They also don't treat venue employees the way they should be treated. I haven't experienced this firsthand, but have heard stories from many friends about experiences that left bitter tastes in their mouths. This band still gets booked, but I won't work with them. This is perhaps the most common sense thing on this list, but it gets overlooked. People don't want to work with you if you don't understand respect. Venues are opening their doors and letting you play on their stage. If you burn all of your bridges, where are you going to play?
Not sure where to start? Here's a non-comprehensive list of Milwaukee fests to check out:
Locust Street Festival of Music & Art
Summer Soulstice
Brady Street Fest
Bay View Bash
Burnhearts/Pabst Street Party
Center Street Daze
Milwaukee Psych Fest
Arte Para Todos

Some stuff I may have missed last week
Bush visits London: I was nearby but Gert was there, with comprehensive on-the-spot reporting.
Rugby World Cup: Odd innit? We win a major global competition for the first time since 1966 and the country only gets semi-excited, whereas we got to the last 32 of the soccer World Cup last year and the nation nearly overflowed with pride. Dare I suggest it's because one's a public school middle class sport and the other one isn't? Or was it those laughable skin-tight rugby jerseys?
Nectar: For those of you following the ongoing story of my Nectar points, you'll be delighted to hear that my latest statement sees me 2km nearer Paris by Eurostar. Nearly as far as Peckham then.

All Jerry Brown's tax plans mean higher taxes, of course. But I hadn't known so much of the revenue income (state taxes) in California is paid by so few earners here! Yay for the rich! So I thought this cartoon might help the truth go down with a little humor.
From my weekly cartoon feature on California news & politics. Try out this California cartoon for powerpoint, state journals, newsletters, blogs, books, etc. Details here.
ID #120402 Caption: (dog watches man read article in the Wall Street Journal) The top 1% in California pay 1/3 to 1/2 of all state revenue. (dog thinks, the 1%…that's the part the liberals hate…) Rich folk, please don't leave. And damn Jerry Brown & his higher tax.

My husband and I had the pleasure celebrating one of my husband's high school friend's weddings this past Friday. I am typically in charge of the gift, which is fine with me because I absolutely love gift giving. We could go with money, which is always appreciated, but I wanted to do something a bit different… of course!

How to Create a Birch Tree Cake
With cake decorating comes a lot of requests for some really fun and different cakes. One of the most recent cakes I was asked to make was a cake to look like a Birch Tree. This has become more and more common as people have been using the woodsy theme for Weddings, Birthdays and even Baby Showers! So for my blog today I am going to show you how to create a Birch Tree style cake with matching cupcakes. However, this time around I am going to show you in a video! The videos are below, have fun creating! And remember to comment to my blog with photos of your creations or any questions you have for me!

5 Simple Ways To Ice A Cupcake
Are you in search of a new look for your cupcakes? Bored with the same old star tip swirl? You are in luck; I have 5 easy cupcake makeovers!
Ice Cream Sundae
For these cupcakes you'll need an ice cream scoop. I prefer to use whipped icing with this one, it comes out of the scoop nicely and has a good ice cream look to it. As far as simplicity goes, it really is just a scoop and plop. For an extra bonus finish it off with some ice cream toppings such as hot fudge, sprinkles, a cherry, cookies, candies… go nuts! These would be great cupcakes for a birthday party.
Bulls Eye
Once again, not a lot of fancy equipment needed. With large round tips, size 10 or larger, or even just the coupler, you can create a colorful cupcake. If you can draw a circle, you can handle this one. Just pipe your big circle on the bottom, don't worry about filling in the center all the way. Pipe a smaller circle on top with your next color. Finish with your third color, filling in the hole and making a nice little swirl on top. Imagine a pile of these colorful cupcakes on your party table.
Sprinkle Supreme
Again, this one is so simple. All you need is frosting and a bowl of sprinkles. You won't need a fancy tip for this one. Just ice the top with any round tip or even just a coupler from your decorating supplies. Put as much frosting on as you want. Next, dunk it and roll it! It helps if you chill your cupcakes first, then frost and dunk. Sometimes fresh cupcakes are so soft and the tops will fall off in the dunking phase. These are great for those sprinkle lovers.
Pretty Petals
You'll need a standard sized rose tip for this cupcake. It's easy, but takes a little more time than other methods. Starting from the outside, pipe ruffles around the edge. Make sure the thin side of the tip is on the outside of your cupcake and you are holding the tip horizontal. Make small "U" shapes or waves to create the petals. Once you get all the way around, repeat, but in a smaller circle so you don't cover the petals you just made. Keep piping until you've covered your cupcake top. How cute would these be at a bridal shower?
Rippling Ruffles
This one is similar to the petal cupcake, but instead of holding the rose tip in a horizontal position, you'll hold it vertical with the thin edge up. Next, move the tip left and right with a small waving motion. The trick is to do small clumps of ruffles going in different directions. Keep turning your cupcake and adding random bits of ruffles. They are a bit unusual looking, but a nice change from the expected. Good for someone looking for a trendy look.
Good luck in all of your icing endeavors. I would love to see your creations, so comment on my blog with a photo!

Wedding Survival Kit
It seems like all of my friends are getting married. So it is bridal shower after bachelorette party after wedding. That means a lot of fun and a lot of gift giving. Buying something off of the registry is nice, you know it is what they want and there is always a gift receipt in case they get a duplicate, but I like to be a bit more creative with my gift giving and a bit practical too.
I am what you call a BTDT Bride, Been There, Done That. I have been a Maid-of-Honor, Bridesmaid, Personal Attendant and even a Bride myself. So, I feel like I kind of have a sense of what it takes to make it through the day. The practical gift I am going to share with you is the "Wedding Survival Kit".
The kit includes almost everything that a Bride would need in a pinch on her wedding day, and of course, I bought it all at Coborn's… and Coborn's Liquor! And, got it all for less than $30! You could really go crazy on what you want to put in here, but I wanted to keep mine small, compact and filled with the essentials.
I also made a fun "Wedding Survival Kit" top that you can attach to your kit container. I used a Food Club 76 fl. oz. reusable large rectangle container; this should also fit the Ziploc containers too. Click here to print the cover. Along with the cover, I printed an "In Case of Emergency" phone list. In case the bride needs to call the photographer, DJ, reception hall, etc., phone numbers are on this list and at her fingertips. Click here to print the "In Case of Emergency" list. Now, here is a list of what I put in my gift!
Hair Supplies
- Comb
- Travel Size Hair Spray
- Bobby Pins
Personal Care
- Dental Pics
- Breath Mints
- Travel Size Deodorant
- Manicure Kit
- Band-Aids
- Hand Sanitizer
- Rolaids (After all Rolaids spell relief)
- Pain Relief Pills
- Two mini bottles of liquor
Just in case
- Travel Pack Shout Wipes
- Sewing Kit complete with mini scissors and safety pins
- Lighter (There are typically candles and not enough lighters)
Because it's a Crazy Day
- Two power bars (You will need the energy for this marathon)
- Tissues (Because someone is going to cry)
- A photo of the Happy Couple (Because sometimes you need to be reminded what this day is actually about)
Some other things you could add to your emergency kit would be: cell phone charger, compact mirror, her favorite candy, lotion, tampons, or just hit up the travel size aisle at Coborn's, there is always good stuff there!
All joking aside, I think this is a really great gift. It shows that you care for the bride, put some thought into the gift and it is something she can actually use. So be creative, be practical and be thoughtful, this gift is sure to please any bride-to-be.

Floral Tips and Trends for Valentine's Day and Weddings
Even though it is below zero outside, you can make it feel like spring inside with flowers. I have been designing flowers for over 30 years. I know that I don't look a day over 29 but it's the truth. And let me tell you, I love it!
Valentine's Day and DIY Arrangement Tips
One of the best times of year for our department has got to be Valentine's day! I think the young love is sooooo cute, they buy teddy bears and roses and they spend a long time picking out just the right thing. Then there are those that get a phone call from their wives at work and tell them how beautiful their co-workers flowers are and then they remember and call us to save them. For some shoppers this is the only time of the year they buy flowers so they have no idea what to pick and they have this deer in the head lights look on their face. No matter what, we can help them all!
Here are a couple tips on buying flowers and making your own arrangements.
Mixed Floral Arrangement
Cut the stems at different heights with the tallest being a single flower.
Same Flower Arrangement
Taper the flowers from a taller center and the rest slightly shorter.
Modern Arrangement
Cut flowers short and arrange close together to provide a tussie-mussie look just above the vase. This is a good look when working with a cubed vase. With taller vases you want to make sure your opening at the top is not too large for the size of your bouquet because it makes it appear half full instead of a nice full look.
Arranging with Greens
Insert the greens before or after you have the flowers in the vase, there is no right or wrong way to do this. If you insert the greens from all around the vase it will create a grid to keep the flower stems from just moving wherever.
Cutting stems
If you cut the flower stem at an angle it gives them more area to drink water.
But, if the flower department is a little scary for you…don't worry. Stop by the Coborn's location in Sauk Rapids and I will be here to help you.
Wedding Flower Trends
Wedding Flowers is one other thing that I absolutely love about my job is doing wedding shows. We just had a booth at the St. Cloud Wedding Expo this January, which was a huge success! A lot of brides just got engaged over the holidays and come in with their moms, girlfriends and bridesmaids to take it all in and start planning. Some weddings are still two years out, but it is a great way to see what things you like and don't like.
One of the trends that we are seeing this year is the many shades of green from a pale mint to a darker green,we have a lot of brides coming in for that. Pictured here is a topical bouquet. It has beautiful pink mink proteas along with spray roses, green spider mums, fushia gerbera daisies and large aspadistra leaves.This arrangement is perfect if you are planning a summer wedding or just like a different look for your wedding.
We also had beautiful arrangements like the butterfly tree. It stood about 10 feet tall and had over a hundred butterflies on it along with some gems. We had a lot of brides taking pictures of that to create their own version.
One of our really popular bridal packages is the $99.99 rose special. With that you receive a bridal bouquet and three bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres for the groom, three groomsmen, two ushers and two fathers plus two mother's corsages. That is very pocketbook friendly, simple and chic.
A lot of brides often ask me what they all need and who all needs to be honored with a flower? I have provided you with a printable flower checklist below. Simply print it off and check off all of the flowers you will need for your big day. This will help you get an idea of what you will need. However you can always come in for a free wedding flower consultation and one of our experienced staff members will be able to help you do the same. We would love to hear from you. Not from the St. Cloud area? Give me a call and tell me where you live and I will be able to provide you with the name of someone you can talk to at a Coborn's near you.

I hope that you have learned some things here and have seen some things that you like. Hope you have a very Happy Valentine's Day!

2 comments:
Yay for meal plans! This looks fantastic. Is Micah open to less meat? I have some vegetarian recipes that we like...I could share if you want :)ReplyDelete
A note on the fried rice...make sure the rice is COLD before adding it to the mix. Otherwise it turns to goop. We really like this recipe. I typically add some ginger for more kick.
I'd ask for some of your recipes, but we seriously don't eat much meat...
hey amy! sorry it took so long to reply! i'm always up for vegetarian recipes!ReplyDelete
i totally ended up changing the recipe from the link i posted, haha. it's what usually ends up happening-and i'm usually happy i always do!
we eat about 1/5 vegan, 1/5 vegetarian and 3/5 carnivorous diet. we try to consume pasture-raised and local meat because micah likes meat (so do i, lol) and grass-fed has some great nutrient advantages over their mainstream counterparts. that being said "meat ain't cheap" so we try to always get creative with tasty and wonderful vegetarian meals! please send some of your faves and i'd love to taste them!

March 23, 2002
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Spatt, District Judge.
This action arises out of claims by Robert M. Goldberg
("Goldberg" or the "plaintiff") that Cablevision Systems
Corporation ("Cablevision" or a "defendant") violated the Cable
Communications Policy Act of 1984 (the "Cable Act"),
47 U.S.C. § 521, et. seq.; 42 U.S.C. § 1985; and the New York Public
Service Law ("N.Y.Pub.Serv.L.") by refusing to air his programs
on their public access channel until he signed an access user
contract. Goldberg also claims that the Town Board of the Town
of Oyster Bay (the "Town Board" or a "defendant") and the New
York State Public Service Commission ("NYSPSC") violated
42 U.S.C. § 1983 by delegating to Cablevision the power to adopt
rules and regulations for the use of its production facilities
and its public, educational, and governmental channel capacity.
The following facts are taken from the amended complaint, the
documents incorporated therein by reference, and matters of
which judicial notice may be taken. See Leonard F. v. Israel
Discount Bank of
N.Y., 199 F.3d 99, 107 (2d Cir. 1999) (holding that in
deciding a motion to dismiss the complaint, a Court may
consider, among other things, facts stated on the face of the
complaint, documents incorporated in the complaint by reference,
and matters of which judicial notice may be taken); Hayden v.
County of Nassau, 180 F.3d 42, 54 (2d Cir. 1999) (same).
A. Statutory Framework
Cable television operators, such as the defendant Cablevision,
are regulated by the Cable Act, 47 U.S.C. § 521, et. seq.;
state law, see N.Y. Pub. Serv. Law, Art. 11; and the Official
Compilation of Codes, Rules, and Regulations of the State of New
York, see 9 NYCRR pt. 595. To the extent that the state and
federal statutes differ, the federal statutes control. See
Capital Cities Cable, Inc. v. Crisp, 467 U.S. 691, 698-700, 104
S.Ct. 2694, 2699-2701, 81 L.Ed.2d 580 (1984), Cable Television
Ass'n of New York, Inc. v. Finneran, 954 F.2d 91, 97-98 (2d
Cir. 1992).
Pursuant to the Cable Act, any "governmental entity empowered
by Federal, State, or local law to grant a franchise,"
47 U.S.C. § 522(10), may provide a cable operator with the authorization
to construct or operate a cable system, see 47 U.S.C. § 522(9)
(defining franchise). Cable operators must comply with the terms
of the resultant franchise agreement in addition to following
federal and state law.
The Cable Act permits franchising authorities, typically a
local government or municipality, to require cable operators to
provide public, educational, and governmental ("PEG") channel
capacity on their systems. See 47 U.S.C. § 531(a); Denver
Area Educ. Telecomms. Consortium, Inc. v. FCC, 518 U.S. 727,
734, 116 S.Ct. 2374, 135 L.Ed.2d 888 (1996) (noting that local
governments require cable system operators to set aside channels
for PEG use in exchange for "permission to install cables under
city streets and to use public rights-of-way"). The Cable Act
also allows franchising authorities to require cable operators
to establish rules and procedures for the use of the channel
capacity designated for PEG programming. See
47 U.S.C. § 531(b). However, the Cable Act prohibits cable operators from
exercising "any editorial control over any public, educational
or governmental use of channel capacity provided pursuant to
this section, except a cable operator may refuse to transmit any
public access program or portion of a public access program
which contains obscenity, indecency, or nudity."
47 U.S.C. § 531(e).
The NYSPSC is responsible for regulating the cable television
industry in New York state. See N.Y. Pub. Serv. Law §§ 211,
215. The NYSPSC promulgates minimum standards that are
incorporated by law into every franchise agreement. See N.Y.
Pub. Serv. Law § 215(b); Goldberg v. Cablevision Systems
Corp., 261 F.3d 318, 320 (2d Cir. 2001). Those standards
include "provisions regarding access to, and facilities to make
use of, channels for . . . public service programs." N.Y. Pub.
Serv. L. § 215(2)(b); Goldberg, 261 F.3d at 320.
State regulations provide that New York cable operators with a
capacity of 21 or more channels must designate at least one
full-time channel for public access and at least one full-time
channel for educational and governmental use. See 9 NYCRR §
595.4(b)(1). The regulations define "public access channel" as a
"channel designated for noncommercial use by the public on a
first-come, first-served, nondiscriminatory basis." 9 NYCRR §
595.4(a)(1). Similar to federal law, the state regulations
prohibit franchisees and municipalities from exercising "any
editorial control over any public, educational or governmental
use of channel capacity
designated for PEG purposes." 9 NYCRR § 595.4(c)(8), (9). In
addition, § 229(3) of the Public Service Law prohibits cable
operators from barring or limiting "any program or class or type
of program presented over a . . . channel made available for
public access." N.Y. Pub. Serv. Law § 229(3).
B. The Franchise Agreement
Cablevision has a Franchise Agreement ("Agreement") with the
Town of Oyster Bay (the "Town") to provide cable television
service to residents of the Town. Pursuant to this Agreement,
which was approved by the NYSPSC, Cablevision must make
available and activate two channels dedicated to PEG access
(see Affidavit of Robert M. Goldberg in Support of Plaintiffs
Motion for a Preliminary Injunction [Goldberg Affidavit],
Exhibit 1, Franchise Agreement ¶ 16.12). Under this Agreement, a
PEG Access Channel is a "channel . . . on which non-commercial
PEG Access programming is cablecast" (see Franchise Agreement
¶ 1.20). The agreement defines PEG access as: "the right to
public, educational and governmental access that Town residents,
its schools, its libraries, as well as the Town government have
to submit noncommercial programs to the Franchisee for
cablecasting on PEG Access channels in accordance with rules
established and administered by the FCC, NYSPSC an the
Franchisee" (Franchise Agreement ¶ 1.18).
Pursuant to the Agreement, Cablevision is "responsible for
developing, implementing, interpreting and enforcing rules for
PEG Access Channel use which shall insure that PEG Access
Channel(s) and PEG Access Equipment will be available on a
first-come non-discriminatory basis" (see Franchise Agreement
¶ 16.4). The Agreement directs Cablevision to comply with
federal and state laws regarding PEG access (see Franchise
Agreement ¶¶ 16.1, 26.1, 32.1). The terms and conditions of the
Agreement are subject to federal and state law as well as FCC
and NYSPSC regulations (see Franchise Agreement ¶ 5.1).
C. The First Public Access Contract
Goldberg is a resident of Oyster Bay who offers independently
produced television programming to be shown on the public access
channel designated by the Agreement between Cablevision and the
Town. During an unspecified period of time prior to April 1,
2001, the plaintiff and Cablevision entered into an Access User
Contract ("First Access User Contract") (see Goldberg
Affidavit, Exhibit 2, First Access User Contract). By signing
the First Access User Contract, Goldberg agreed to abide by
Cablevision's Access Rules; to reimburse the company for any
damage he may cause to Cablevision's equipment and facilities;
to reimburse or indemnify Cablevision for any liability that
might arise out of the violation of the intellectual property
rights of third parties; and to provide programs for
cablecasting that do not include obscene or indecent material or
advertisements for a lottery (see First Access User Contract).
The Court was not provided with a copy of the Access Rules upon
which the First Access User Contract was based.
D. The Access User Contract
According to the amended complaint, on an unspecified date
prior to April 1, 2001, Cablevision demanded that Goldberg enter
into a new Access User Contract that was based on a revised set
of access user rules, policies, procedures, and guidelines
("Access User Contract") (see Goldberg Affidavit, Exhibit 3,
Access User Contract). Goldberg attached a copy of the revised
access user rules to his affidavit in support of his motion for
a preliminary injunction upon which the Court is ruling in the
present decision (see Goldberg Affidavit, Exhibit 3,
Cablevision Public, Educational, and Governmental Access Rules).
The Access User Contract provides, among other things, that
public access programmers, such as the plaintiff, agree to abide
by Cablevision's Access Rules, including the technical
specifications set forth in the Rules (see Access User
Contract, ¶¶ 1, 2). By signing the Access User Contract, the
public access programmer warrants that his cablecast
presentations do not contain obscene material, advertisements
for a lottery, or commercial transactions and agrees to submit
his program to Cablevision which may edit out any such
prohibited material (see Access User Contract ¶¶ 2, 7(b)). The
programmer assumes responsibility for all music synchronization
rights for the music contained in his presentation and agrees to
provide Cablevision with the title and composer of the musical
arrangements incorporated in his presentation (see Access User
Contract ¶ 3).
In addition, the programmer agrees to indemnify Cablevision
for any liability, loss, or damage arising out of any material
he supplies to Cablevision in connection with his use of
Cablevision's public access channel and with regard to his use
of Cablevision's production facilities (see Access User
Contract ¶¶ 4, 5). The programmer also agrees to indemnify
Cablevision for any liability, loss, or damage it may suffer due
to the programmer's violation of the intellectual property
rights of third parties (see Access User Contract ¶ 6). The
programmer assumes responsibility for the proper care of
Cablevision's production facilities and agrees to repair or
replace any Cablevision equipment he damages (see Access User
Contract ¶ 7(a)).
By signing the Access User Contract, the programmer also
agrees to defend any action to which an indemnity applies (see
Access User Contract ¶ 8) and to release Cablevision from any
legal action, claims, or demands the programmer "ever had, has
and may have" (Access User Contract ¶ 9). The programmer agrees
not to use the name "Cablevision" when publicizing the programs
he intends to cablecast (see Access User Contract ¶ 14). The
programmer also stipulates that his programs will be used only
for public access cablecasting and "will not be exploited for
profit, nonpolitical or commercial fundraising in any fashion"
(Access User Contract ¶ 10). According to the Access User
Contract, Cablevision must review any material a programmer uses
to promote his presentation (see Access User Contract ¶ 11).
On March 29, 2001, Goldberg signed the Access User Contract
and an Access User Application and submitted them to Cablevision
so that he could cablecast one of his programs on Cablevision's
public access channel. However, Goldberg added the following
language to the Access User Contract and Access User
Application: "Nothing is or has been agreed to that is not in
accord with United States and New York State law or that would
waive my rights that would otherwise apply." Goldberg alleges
that on April 1, 2001, Cablevision unilaterally revoked the
First Access User Contract.
On April 3, 2001, one Dianne Bennett ("Bennett"), an Access
Supervisor at Cablevision, wrote Goldberg a letter stating that
Cablevision was unable to accept his Access User Contract and
Application because he had made "unilateral additions/deletions,
amendments or comments to either/both of these documents."
Bennett returned to Goldberg five of the eight Access User
Contracts and Applications he had submitted. She also provided
him with clean copies of both documents and invited him to
submit them in accordance with Cablevision's Rules. ...

Brief Answer: These can happen due to Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your query. From the description provided it seems that you have muscle twitches or fasciculations. These are small, local, involuntary muscle contraction and relaxation arising from the spontaneous discharge of a bundle of skeletal muscle fibers. Fasciculations have a variety of causes, the majority of which are benign. These can happen due to electrolyte imbalances or vitamin B 12 deficiency. Taking electrolyte fluids and vitamin B 12 supplements might resolve your symptoms. Or all these could just be due to some anxiety or stress. In that case it will disappear once you are stress free. Other causes could be, thyroid problem, excessive coffee use, or a nerve entrapment syndrome. The treatment of most of the conditions is very easy and the condition will resolve on its own. In some cases, prescription medications might be needed to stop severe symptoms. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care

BRUSSELS – Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou's call to hold a referendum on the rescue package agreed at the eurozone summit in late October has profound implications for European governance, despite the fact that the referendum will not now go ahead. It may also determine the future of the euro.
Papandreou had to reverse course quickly in response to both internal and external pressure, but the option that he put on the table will not go away, whatever the fate of the present Greek government. As long as the Greek people have to be asked to accept one austerity package after another, they might wonder when they will have a direct say on this matter…read more.
TOKYO – Despite the relentless shift of global economic might to Asia, and China's rise as a great power – the central historical events of our time, which will drive world affairs for the foreseeable future – America's focus has been elsewhere. The terrorist attacks of 2001, followed by the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, the Great Contraction of 2008, the Arab Spring, and Europe's sovereign debt crisis, all diverted the United States from helping to create a lasting structure of peace to accommodate today's resurgent Asia.
In November, US President Barack Obama can begin to redress this imbalance when he hosts the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in his native state of Hawaii. The meeting's timing is fortunate, because a number of critical Asian issues are coming to a boil…read more.

Honda CG 125 Review By Wasif — BikeBD
Honda CG 125 Review By Wasif
A back I came home and that the place where I my bike is blocked and another Honda CG 125 is there. 15 minutes discover who own the bike so asked man to lend the bike to me for one day in exchange I mine to him.
So let's with it, today i am going to Honda CG 125 review . It has a Honda assemble in Pakistan very the same way they assemble Honda in India. There too much to write about bike, at one stage I thought I shouldn't write a review on it at But the moment I rode may be 400 meters my home and just entered I changed my mind and for a while I what if my Glamour made the noise like it.
It has a 125cc 11 BHP Air cool overhead valve, single-cylinder with 4 speed gear; the is light and is good for me. It handles in a congested Dhaka city. It is CDI means Capacitor Discharge
It is defined by Quality, Performance, Economy Petrol and Re-sale It is a stunning result of advanced technology and right up there as an performer representing all the qualities make Honda motorcycles so
The power delivery is good and of its lightless it accelerates faster most 125cc bikes of its I did 90 kmph from 0 in no time. I was to myself does a Bajaj 150 or Hero Honda Hunk get this fast? Almost all these days has tune so the noise they made is as as a China made I pod, but doesn't, this sounds this sounds FANTASTIC.
aren't too many of these but if one passes by within a 1 km of your you will hear it.
It is elegant and excellent in its The bike's handle is good and to maneuver. Fuel tank is with amazing graphics aerodynamics shape. Speedometer is very stylish but would been better if it had a fuel Front lights are beautiful improved design of the back
It has a 12 volt battery.
But it is AC which is a problem. The front suspension is and the rear one Swing arm. The of the bike are good even in bad roads.
I like that it is small in width which it very agile in the traffic.
Ride and Handling:
The suspension is good but it is a bit bouncy, even 3 people the bike doesn't to hit the bottom of the tyre guard. It has a suspension and braking system. I don't ride fast so for me the brakes gives no problem at Though the tyres are thin but it good grip.
I once from home to Uttara and the was good, there is no vibration in the Both the ride and handling is
The gear changes aren't smooth but there is no lag. is no pull from the bike. Yes the 11 BHP on a 100 kg bike they should had given a front disc and a better strong alloy
Because trust me with bike you can do 100 kmph in the nit of time but you don't have any brakes to it.
Mileage :
This is where the is a bit disappointing. I get 40+ kmpl in Dhaka 50+ on highway. The bike doesn't not good mileage relative to Indian 125cc fuel bikes.
But I believe in a theory the bikes that drink fuel have a healthy

Hey guess what yall? Did you know that java.util.Arrays$ArrayList is not an ArrayList? I do! I really shouldn't be endowed with such information but I have been happily blessed with such knowledge as a result of blindly refactoring some programming logic in a method that returns java.util.ArrayList. That it returns java.util.ArrayList I was not aware because my brain happily discarded the prefix Array from the return type leaving my eye to only perceive the word List. (To my non Java educated readers (are you out there?) I'm referring to how I missed half of a word on the declared type of a method, which for my non-programming crowd, is the most important piece of a method. A method is a chunk of code that can be… whatever! I'm off topic rambling!) In my refactoring (to my non-tech readers, refactoring means changing a program so that it does the same thing but reads a little better) I thought it would be really cool to change something like this:
ArrayList classNames = new ArrayList();
//TODO: Add class name strings for my objects as they are developed classNames.add("com.ourpkg.SomeObject"); classNames.add("com.ourpkg.SomeOtherObject"); classNames.add("com.ourpkg.DougEFreshLyrics");
return classNames;
Into something like this:
//TODO: Add class name strings for my objects as they are developed
return Arrays.asList("com.ourpkg.SomeObject",
See? Less lines of code means easier to read and work on. It also means I'm smarter than you Mr. Original Writer of program so pay me more money please! The problem, as I stated earlier, was in the method declaration which read something like this:
protected ArrayList getHipHopsGreatestHits()
Mr. Original Writer of program clearly felt it was important to use an ArrayList but in my mind a list is a list is a list so my code should work just fine right? Well, after hours of debugging because we have this habit of catching Exception everywhere and pretending to tell Mrs. Log4J about the problem only when a flag is set in the particular class and passing an extra 385 options on the command line to tell our software exactly which logger to use and which classes are of interest and since that's only done on Easter Sundays when Tom Brokaw is not on vacation for the nightly news, …after all of that I was able to find the problem. (Believe me, each one of the prior pre-conditions is relative for reasons I don't know.) I found the problem of my overzealous refactoring. (My over excitement to change the program logic and make it easier so I can make more money, so I can buy a bigger TV set so I can watch 24 in High Def on Mondays, so I can…)
So now I ask the programming community, is this Mr. James Gosling's fault? Should I blame Sun? How dare they create an inner-class of Arrays that implements the List interface but is clearly not an ArrayList! Don't they realize that ArrayList is an interface??!! If I ever see a Sun engineer in the streets, man, it's on! Watch your back Sun Microsystems, watch'a back…
An astute reader might say, "Cliff you're full of beans! What you've outlined is a compile time error not a runtime discrepancy that would be caught through a convoluted series of preconditions as you've described!" I would respond to the astute reader, "Stop reading in so much detail! Go out and get a girlfriend (or boyfriend?) instead of poking holes in my stories!" Honestly though the above description is a simplified version of the actual program which was indirectly invoked through reflection. Yes whenever something doesn't quite make sense, blame reflection!

The trip to Mount Deucero was strange. Not because of anything they encountered, nor because of anything they saw but because of a feeling. There was an uncomfortable feeling in the air. As though the trio was setting out for a daunting challenge.
The three barely spoke, none of them certain about why they were so nervous. They continued their trek without incident until they spotted it, a small but elaborately decorated house with a massive smithery set up outside of it. An elderly looking man was hobbling to the anvil with the aid of a stick.
They dismounted and approached him. "Pardon us," Sylvie cried out. "We're…"
"I know who you are," the old man snapped. "Sylvie, Serena, Inés. Warrior priestesses of Athena come to ask my services."
"How do you know that?" Inés asked.
"Apollo's gift," the old man answered. "Very handy little thing." He looked at the tonfa hanging from Inés' waist. "Those things are no good for you. It's a staff you're wanting, isn't it?"
"Yeah," Inés stated. "Do you have one?"
"I can make one," he said. "A very strong one. However, the three of you have to do me a favour if you want weapons."
"Then we have two questions," Sylvie said. "What is the favour and why is a soothsayer working as a weaponsmith?"
"I'm curious about that as well," Serena said. "Isn't it unusual for someone with Apollo's gift to not use it?"
The old smith chuckled. "I never said that I had Apollo's gift. No, no. I was told about you by my half-brother. As to the favour." He pointed towards the peak of the mountain. "Up there lies a grand pasture. A pasture where pegasi graze. The pasture is sacred to Aeolus, protected by a great gate and guarded by Aurai with wyverns. The three of you will get past that gate, retrieve three pegasi for me and return for your weapons."
"You want us to fight our way past a bunch of angry Aurai and capture multiple pegasi?" Sylvie demanded, incredulous.
"I think that I can take them," Inés stated.
"Fighting the Aurai would be folly," he said. "but, there are other ways. Most mortals would be killed instantly upon approaching their domain but you three… you three have some protection not afforded to most. I think, as does my half-brother, that the Aurai will be inclined to parley with you."
"We're wasting our time here," Sylvie said. "Come on, let's return to Wicadia and find a weapon smith there."
"Do you really doubt yourself so much, Sylvie Fortunio?" he asked. He shook his head, mockingly. "However will you reach Drahaven or properly confess your feelings to young Miss Fensen if you don't even have the gumption to meet with some Aurai?"
Sylvie turned towards him, very quickly. "There's a difference between gumption and reckless idiocy!" she declared. "You say that they'll listen to us and everything will be all right. I say, it's foolhardy to trespass in a sacred meadow and risk the wrath of a God just to get Inés a new staff. Why should the Aurai even listen to us and why should we take that chance when we can get a staff elsewhere?"
"Because you can't get a better staff anywhere else," he said. "I can guarantee that much. Furthermore, you're curious. Now that I've brought up Miss Fensen you don't know how much I know about the three of you."
"Is Illyana Miss Fensen?" Serena asked.
Inés nodded. "She never took her adoptive mum's name. Bugger if I know why."
"I do," the old man said. "Would you like to hear the story?"
"No thank you!" Sylvie snapped. "You've already made it very clear that you know all about us."
"Why are you going to all this trouble, Old Timer?" Inés asked. "Surely, you can't be that hurting for customers."
"Course not," he said. "But I know of no other customers who can bring me pegasi. As I said, other mortals would be torn to shreds."
"Ladies," Sylvie gestured to them. The three moved closely together. "Do we go on this crazy errand?" She whispered the words as soon as they were near.
"It's going to rain while you're huddled like that, just before you come to your decision," he called out. The three of them looked up, there was no sign of clouds. It was a bright, sunny day.
"It seems really sketchy," Serena whispered, slightly louder than she'd intended.
"I think we should," Inés said.
"Explain," Sylvie demanded.
"Because I don't think he's lying," Inés said. I doubt that anyone would go to so much trouble to trap us. The only ones with a reason to are those monotheists and the ones in charge of them are dead. Besides, he knows things that they wouldn't."
"Granted," Sylvie said. "But it seems crazy. I…" she didn't finish her sentence. A sudden downpour hit them, leaving them soaked. They heard the old man laughing. Then, as suddenly as it happened, it was gone.
"He said it would happen," Serena reminded them. "Maybe… maybe Inés is right. Maybe he is being honest with us."
"All right," Sylvie muttered. "If you both want to trust your fates to this codger, I guess I have no choice but to go along with you."
"Then we're all agreed," Inés said. She turned to him. "We'll get your pegasi, Old Timer."
"I knew you would," he said. "I'll take care of your horses."
"Our horses?" Serena asked.
"Can't ride them where you're going," he said. "And they'll be safer here than where you'd have to leave them. Snatched up by wyverns if they go with you."
"And you'll make her a staff when we bring the pegasi to you?" Sylvie asked.
"I'll make your weapons while you're gone," he said. "They'll be on the table by the time you return."
Inés walked up to him and shook his hand. "It's a deal."
