Hello. thank you guys. Im glad you like it. I made a alternative version( allow a few configurations), wich im using. And i fixed the double sound. Sorry Spinelli, about the bug2, i dont know where is the problem (its works for me). Check the emulator options.About optional boxart or scale the layout, lately i dont have much free time or knowledge xd, to make it. But if someone wants, it would be fantastic. But if you have any other bug or a little suggestion, i try to solve it. Also i attached the psd files so you to do whatever you want.
How do I solve this bug?
Sorry for the absence, i've been a bit busy. I've made some changes to the original layout, cant make a big improvement but...- I made it scale on the screen resolution, i test it on 16:9 resolutions, i dont have a 4:3 monitor to test it.
Hi, how are u?, what do u need to adjust?, il try to made some changes if its possible.
Hi man, i was a bit bussy, but yes probably thats because the entire layout was designed for a 16:9 resolution, so when i upscale it to 4:3 resolutions it'll probably looks stretched, i'll try to change the method used for the scale, perhaps instead of resizing the image it'll be better to work with the percentage of scren occupied by the images and scale that percentage, just a thinking.The problem with that are the static images, but let me see what i can i do.

Unfortunately indemnity insurance is not insurance for insurance. That's why we have an Ombudsman. Indemnity insurance covers professionals when they really expensive mistakes. While there exist types of indemnity insurance for almost every profession, they can all be divided into two categories: professional indemnity insurance or employer indemnity insurance.
Whether you deal with members of the public by providing them a service or offering a product, or have employees, your business will need indemnity insurance. A big booboo could cost your company thousands you haven't budgeted for. And then try and pass that by the board.
Indemnity insurance for professionals
We are not here talking of people qualified in a profession such as a doctor or lawyer (although they have specialized indemnity insurance to cover them), but insurance which covers errors made by a company which harms a member of the public. Such professional indemnity insurance is taken out by a company for claims made by people who are not members of the company.
The type of indemnity insurance you opt for is determined by the nature of your business. For example, a company that produces goods will opt for poor workmanship indemnity insurance to cover claims made by members of the public who are dissatisfied or injured with a product. Restaurants can get similar insurance for spoilt food (which covers them for claims of food poisoning). Malpractice indemnity insurance covers doctors and lawyers for claims of poor services, while accountants and financial advisors get errors and omissions insurance for poor advice.
Indemnity insurance for employers
It isn't enough that businesses have to endure claims made by the public, but also claims made by members of their own company. If a member of the company is injured on the job or suffers financial harm as a result of the company, then he or she may hold the company liable for the damages and sue them. These claims are covered by an employer's liability insurance policy, and the company will be held liable if a court decides that the company's negligence caused the damages.
Indemnity insurance for employers does not, however, cover claims made for unfair dismissal as there is legislation governing this. Unfair dismissal claims need to be disputed by the CCMA.

text: Home » Games » Wii Sports Resort Wii Sports Resort Stuart Davidson July 31, 2009 Games Wii Sports was a huge seller for Nintendo – and rightly so as it was a great showpiece for the motion controls in a simple package created to attract a specific kind of gamer. Today we will show you what Wii Sports Resort brings to the table. The new title features the Wii Motion Plus, a device that plugs into the button of a Wii Remote and gives much better recognition of motion detection than the standard controller. This means that developers have now the opportunity to create games that feature incredibly sensitive motion control and don't have to rely on the usual 'waggling' we are all familiar with. Motionplus has already been featured in Grand Slam Tennis which we reviewed a while ago but this is the first time a Nintendo game has featured the peripheral. Lets make no mistake Wii Sports Resort is a great game – it shows exactly the capabilities of the new Motionplus system and sticks to the familiar package of the original Wii Sports which proved so successful. This time around however instead of just five sports there are now a dozen available which is sure to aid the longevity of the game to the hardcore audience. Golf and Bowling are repeats from before but with the addition of Motionplus control to enhance the experience. Bowling is almost the same as before but it now feels more natural and responsive thanks to Motion plus, there is also a handicap option for those who couldn't work around the 'B releases the ball system', but you can turn it off if you have it fully mastered. Golf adds nine more holes and tighter control that allows for backswing and enables much better control over slices and hooks – apart from this it is almost identical, which is not a bad thing. Table Tennis is a great addition to the list of games on offer because it is a simplified version of the sport in which you control the swing of the player but not the movement. All of this is handled by the AI which means you can concentrate on striking the ball and judging adjustments such as spin and power. To correctly hit the ball the gamers have to swing with the Wii Remote on the correct side of their on screen body. Unfortunately there is only a single player or two player option. Archery is fun and by holding the Wii Remote upright players fire arrows at a target using the Nunchuk's Z trigger as the string. You then aim by raising and lowering the Wii Remote (like the bow in real life) and release the arrow by letting go of the Z button. More difficult areas of this challenge task the player to work out distance, height and windspeed while dealing with a target moving from left to right on a track. 'Frisbee' is another new addition which is split into two packs of challenges. Frisbee Dog for instance is played for accuracy where players throw the disc as close as possible to the target then a puppy runs to get it. This throwing motion is tough to master initially and it is a good indication of how powerful the Motionplus system really is as it can work out pitch and angles. Frisbee Golf is an unusual concept as it replaces the golf club and ball with a throwing disc – this is then played on the same 18 holes that are available in the standard golf game. Powercruising is inspired by Nintendo's Wave Race game and uses the Wii Remote and Nunchuk as handlebars to the vehicle and by tilting left and right your watercraft moves accordingly. Single player challenges are timed slalom courses and Vs races are rather short lived. I found this game a little boring after a while because Wave Race is clearly a much superior title and I had already played it a great deal in the past. Canoeing is an interesting water event which is slow paced and by holding the Wii Remote upright and moving left and right of your body the character propels themselves through the water. This comes into its own in multiplayer mode as the players are on the same screen working their way through the course with the camera pulling back just enough to get everyone on the same screen. Four players is ideal and an absolute blast. Wakeboarding is another water focused sport and players use the Wii Remote in the standard orientation and move back and forward to get air off the waves produced by the boat tugging you along. It is a very simple mechanic but it works surprisingly well in a group of people and was a fun experience with my friends (and a few beers). The big trick is mastering the correct angle to land flat on the water which will earn you the full points for the tricks. Cycling it would be fair to say is not one of my favourites as the mechanics of the controller system don't add much to the experience. You waggle the Wii Remote and Nunchuk and steer by leaning left and right. One of the games I didn't enjoy playing at all. Basketball is a decent little game however it is certainly not a fully blown basketball game in the same vein as the NBA2k series. You simply time the thrusts of the remote to the on screen characters jump shot. This unlocks a three v three basketball mode using similar mechanics as before and while it is reasonably fun to play, in company it was one of the few (as well as cycling) that we skipped in favour of something else. My favourite of the new additions is easily Swordplay which will satisfy the need many Star Wars fans have had for a Light Saber game to be created since the Wii was announced. You start out with a one on one fight against a human or computer opponent and the task is to simply knock the other person off the platform into the water. I am not confident that there is a lot of skill involved in this aspect of the game however as sometimes random waggling can work as well as a carefully thought out means of approach. Defending however is very important because without doing so you will assuredly end up out of the game floating downstream. If an attacking player hits a defensive stance then he is immediately opened up for a counterattack and this is further enhanced by the system of defensive stances. For instance, if you get hit by a vertical attack but you are defending in a vertical stance then this will be bypassed so it is important to analyse how your opponent is holding his sword to work out your means of defense. There are two other modes attached to swordplay such as a two player option called 'speed slice' where players attack an object with a single swing in a certain direction and a single player mode called 'showdown' which makes players fight through hundreds of Mii characters without taking more than three hits in a round – a hefty challenge indeed. Air Sports is a nice extra which is clearly drawing some influences from the classic Pilotwings Nintendo games. It features skydiving, a great little mini game in which you are required to tilt, twist and turn the Wii Remote to link up with other skydivers then alter the formation to take a picture. Dogfighting is for two players in split screen mode, in this you have to deflate the other players balloon. Island flyover is the last mode and you fly around WuHu Island finding points of interest and collecting items. The more items you find then the more features you unlock. Wii Sports Resort is a brilliant indication of the capabilities of the controller – especially the Swordplay game which is great fun with a bunch of friends in the same room. There are sometimes problems involving the sensor bar calibration which require you to push down on the D pad, but all in all its an almost painfree experience. Certainly you have to put the controller on a flat surface occasionally to recheck calibration but it doesn't really ruin the overall immersive party experience. New to the game is also a 'Stamp' system which is clearly an implementation of the Xbox Achievements system and they add a little challenge to the experience however it is a shame they are only visible to people viewing on the same console. Graphically the game is what we would expect from a Wii Sports game with simplistic characters and background details. Look a little deeper however and you can see more attention to detail with rag doll physics and great depth of field. This all adds to the overall appearance and presentation and it works well. Wii Sports Resort is a great title which I had a lot of fun playing with friends and family, exactly the way a Nintendo game is meant to be – firmly rooted in the social environment. The enhanced controller system adds a lot of immersiveness to the sports games and the additional titles mean there is a lot more going on than ever before. If you have a Wii and are clamoring for a killer title this year to play with two or three more people then this should already be on your shortlist. Gameplay 88/100 Swordplay is brilliant and Frisbee, Table Tennis and Archery are well worth playing. Graphics 84/100 Very simply art style but extremely well polished with capable Rag Doll Physics. Audio 78/100 Happy soundtrack with the announcer from before. Value 80/100 The game is only hampered by online support, otherwise its top class. Overall (Not an Average) 85/100 Wii sports fanatics will get a kick from this. Share On

MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Vikings will take no disciplinary action against quarterback Warren Moon in the wake of an alleged assault of his wife, Felicia, but the team will urge him to seek domestic abuse counseling, according to a story in Friday's Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune.
"We're not talking any discipline, we're not talking any punishment," team President Roger Headrick said.
Headrick said the Vikings would offer the Moons assistance in finding counseling.
"Obviously, nobody condones anything like this, and obviously they need help, but that's something they've got to want to participate in," Headrick said.

June 2017 update
This page records individual planning applications during 2016 and the first part of 2017. This was a time consuming effort we have not been able to continue so it is not up to date. We are leaving it here as a record of the scale of development that was unleashed in 2016 with the Council's encouragement and acquiescence even though some destroyed aspects of the historic town centre that should have been protected by the Conservation Area. This destruction still continues for example with over-development on the corners of Highshore Road and in SE Rye Lane near Heaton Road, and the destruction of Georgian houses in south west Rye Lane.
We are focussing now on why the Conservation Area Management Plan (CAMP) is failing to conserve the historic nature and character of the town centre.
Acknowledgement: All illustrations of the new buildings are copies from the planning applications.
- 1 Major redevelopment across Peckham town centre
- 2 Important developments known to be in the pipeline, still to be decided at February 2017:
- 7 Significant developments approved in 2016 included:
- 11 Developments rejected in 2016
Major redevelopment across Peckham town centre
In the first half of 2016, it seemed as if a tsunami of planning applications and development plans was sweeping across the town centre. Now it seems we are looking at the wreckage it has left.The map to the right here shows how extensive this is, and there are more since this map was created in February 2016. The Peckham Planning Network has been considering the wider issues raised by these numerous planning applications, and has initiated discussions with key councillors and planning officers, and taken a deputation to the Peckham and Nunhead Community Council in July 2016.The wider issues include the accumulation of the effects of different aspects of the developments. One of these is that the nature of the town centre Conservation Area is being adversely changed in several ways. More information on these wider issues and cumulative effects is here. So far Council's response it that all is OK, and no action needed. Meanwhile Peckham Rye station already grossly overcrowded at times.
The increase in major planning applications is a result of:
- developers' interest in the town centre increased because of rising prices and approval of the Area Action Plan (PNAAP),
- the Council now proactively implementing the development sites from the PNAAP.
Here are suggestions and guidance for ways to approach considering and commenting on planning applications. A summary of basic information for each known case is below, including the link to the Council Planning webpage. You can see other comments on that Council weblink. Remember that the dates for comments are often extended beyond the date shown in early information, and unless it says comments closed you can submit comments on the website. If in doubt, email the case officer and/or firstname.lastname@example.com For more information about local community work on planning please email email@example.com
Important developments known to be in the pipeline, still to be decided at February 2017:
108 Peckham High St 17/AP/0832
A mixed use development, following demolition of the existing building, with a four storey infill building comprising one replacement commercial unit (151 sq.m. sui generis betting office) and three new two-bedroom residential apartments with associated cycle parking, refuse storage and private amenity space.
121-125 Peckham High St 17/AP/0495
This is demolition of existing two storey retail building currently housing the Post Office and construction of new five storey building comprising ground floor retail with 56 bedroom hotel above, roof top plant, creation of rear service yard, and ancillary works. The images look no different from the dreary unattractive building in their exhibition last year. It seems to be another development which is changing the nature of the town centre from a varied type of attractive architecture to a monotonous characterless townscape.
Sumner House and Flax Yard, 1-51 PECKHAM HIGH Street: 16/AP/4018
This is a large scale development of 4 large residential buildings consisting of 168 residential dwellings and flexible retail space, including 96 social rented flats of one to three bedrooms. A further 24 properties will be "intermediate housing" and the rest will be sold on the open market. Open land rear of 1-51 Peckham High road bounded by Sumner Avenue and Melon Road. The openland is adjacent to 59 Peckham High Street and Sumner Road.
Aylesham Centre & Morrisons
This will be a major redevelopment of the town centre retail area – involving most of the land between Rye Lane, Hanover Park and the bus station. Large areas are likely to be demolished and redeveloped: Aylesham Centre, Morrison's store, car park and petrol station. Bus station to be redesigned with the new development. Proposals are expected to be put out for local consultation during 2017. Map and further information here.
Iceland extension Holly Grove
17/AP/0405: Erection of first floor extension to rear of property to provide ancillary accommodation to existing retail unit. This is a Planning application by the Council to extend Iceland sideways over Station Way in Holly Grove. This would be to compensate for the loss of their store room to enable the Council to remove the Arcade on the north side of the new square. It is not clear if Iceland agree to this as they objected to the Compulsory Purchase Order, which was part of the recent public inquiry.
32-36 Rye Lane (corner Highshore Road)
17/AP/0862 | Construction of a 3-storey extension (fronting onto Highshore Road) above the existing commercial units and service yard to provide 8 residential units (6 x 2-bed flats and 2 x 3-bed flats); reconfiguration of the existing service area; associated landscaped courtyard and elevational alterations to the ground floor. | 32-36 RYE LANE, LONDON, SE15 5BS
There are five large sites at the south end of Rye Lane that are being redeveloped and will fundamentally change dramatically the whole ambience and streetscape of that part of the Conservation Area of low rise two to three storey buildings. Instead there will be dense 5 to 7 storey buildings adjacent to each other: 3 on the north side of Heaton Road between Rye Lane and Copeland Road, and two on the south side - Coop House and 269-75 Rye Lane. There was local opposition to the mass and height of all the buildings. None were considered in relation to each other and their cumulative effects on the locality. Coop House was the first two to three storeys higher than the buildings it replaced. All these other developments have used that as the minimum height to aim for.
269-275 Rye Lane & 1A Philip Walk: 16/AP/1896
This is the final of the five developments. It is a private development of up to 7 storeys without social housing. The residents in Coop House object because of the negative effects on their own flats of buildings that are too high and dense. This is still under consideration by the Council. The residents are seeking a meeting with the developers to discuss their detailed objections and to seek changes.

Between Rye Lane & Sternhall Lane
There are two adjacent housing developments lying behind and between the buildings on Rye Lane and Sternhall Lane. They each have many objections. One at 33 Sternhall Lane was refused but a new application has now been submitted. The other at 190 Rye Lane is to be decided:
190 Rye Lane: 15/AP/4857
This is a housing development with over 100 objections. A major objection is that so much new housing next door to Canavan's night club at 188 Rye Lane will result in its closure. It has not yet been decided
Click here for the planning application
Significant developments approved in 2016 included:
Peckham Arch, Library Square & 91-93 Peckham High Street 16/AP/3075
This is a council development on Council land leading to removal of Peckham Arch & Peckham Platform building. To be decided by Planning Committee on 8th November 2016. New build for retail and commercial on ground floors with housing above in 4 to 6 storeys at 91-93 Peckham High Street, and on the opposite side adjacent to Weatherspoons building. Social and intermediate housing will be provided in the new build. Redesign of the square at ground level. Issues include the removal of the Arch, the height of the buildings, the design of the buildings out of keeping with the appearance of the historic High Street buildings, creating residential units in the middle of the noisy commercial and leisure town centre area. Peckham Society registered objections on heritage and conservation grounds.

- Planning officer's report recommending approval
Mountview Theatre Academy 16/AP/2649
New three/four/five storey building with associated landscaping to Peckham Square and Peckham Hill Street. This case was decided by Planning Committee on Mon 12th September. Issues included the dense mass of the building, too close to the Library and the loss of the views from the Library. This application should have been considered at the same time as the Council's application for the Square and the new buildings on Peckham High Street as they are all adjacent to each other, but they are being treated separately. For example, there is no reference to the Mountview building in the image for the new Library Square from the High Street. Peckham Society registered objections on heritage and conservation grounds.
Costa Coffee 1 Rye Lane (Jones & Higgens tower): 16/AP/1787
Costa Coffee were given permission by officers under delegated powers to change the use from retail to coffee shop in the ground floor shop currently occupied by Blue Inc. This is in spite of the Council policy being to protect and increase the retail space in this retail protected shop frontage.

Change of use from A1 (retail shop) to A3 (restaurant) including alterations to the shopfront on both the Rye Lane and Bournemouth Road elevations. Comments have to be in by 24 September, though they will be accepted until the report is made. Issues are loss of retail, and effect on the heritage and Conservation Area.

Peckham Rye Station: 15/AP/4337
The Council plans for the new station square and the restructuring and addition of two floors on top of the art deco building on the corner of Blenheim Grove and Rye Lane were approved in spite of numerous objections to some important details. Work is expected to start on the Blenheim Grove building in early 2017, with the work on the new Square in two phases after that and to be completed during 2018.
Click here for comments and images of the new square and structures
133 Rye Lane: 16/AP/1032
This is the historic Edwardian building at the entrance to the Copeland Park and Bussey Building site. It was one of the first cinemas in London just over 100 years ago. The private plans to change the floors above ground to housing were withdrawn November 2015 after massive local objections. Revised plans to change use to business working spaces instead were approved in spite of objections from Copeland Park and CLF Art Cafe about the details on the ground. Objections to the addition of two floors to the top and destruction of the historic roof line in the revised plans were not resubmitted in time before officers approved the plan under delegated powers.
Click here for the planning application
95A Rye Lane, Peckham Levels: 16/AP/1551
Permission was given for 5 years for change of use from car parking to entertainment and leisure uses to create Peckham Levels. Licensing permission is still pending a decision. Local residents objected to the late opening until 1am requested. Permission for that was given for one year so that it has to be reconsidered in the light of experience in one year. The long term future of the multi storey building including the PeckhamPlex cinmea is still to be settled. The next stage is the consultation on the Council's plans for the site in the New Southwark Plan (NSP); this is expected later in 2016. Further information here.
Click here for the planning application
32-36 Rye Lane (corner of Highshore Road)
Conversion from office to residential. Approved before 2016, but revisions made subsequently. The building faces the development on the opposite corner of Highshore Road.
38-44 Rye Lane (Corner with Highshore Rd): 16/AP/2051
Refurbishment and extension of existing building, including additional floors above ground floor, ranging in height from three to five storeys. 28 residential units. No social housing. Would harm the Conservation Area through new build out of scale with surrounding buildings, low quality design, materials not appropriate, height extension is an obtrusive intrusion.
Click here for the planning application
There are five large sites at the south end of Rye Lane that are being redeveloped and will fundamentally change dramatically the whole ambience and streetscape of that part of the Conservation Area of low rise two to three storey buildings. Instead there will be dense 5 to 7 storey buildings adjacent to each other: 3 on the north side of Heaton Road between Rye Lane and Copeland Road, and two on the south side - Coop House (built) and 269-75 Rye Lane (still to be decided). There was local opposition to the mass and height of all the buildings. None were considered in relation to each other and their cumulative effects on the locality. Coop House was the first two to three storeys higher than the buildings it replaced. All these other developments have used that as the minimum height to aim for.
213 Rye Lane (LOBO'S Fish Factory & Behind): 16/AP/0131
This is a massive overdevelopment with 7 storeys towering over from behind the low rise buildings in Rye Lane and the two storey houses on the adjacent Atwell Estate. It is out of scale with the Conservation Area buildings and the design detracts from the Conservation Area. In the original proposal all housing was for the private market with no social housing being proposed. As a result of objections to the lack of social housing the Council has negotiated and the resubmitted application how proses an element of social housing. While an improvement over none this is still not fully compliant with the Council policy. Moreover the density proposed is still excessive and the impact on the Conservation Area not compliant with Council policy.
- Nevertheless the Council is recommending approval.

237-239 Rye Lane (Copeland Road former car wash site): 13/AP/2311
This private development was given approval by a Planning Inspector on appeal against the Council rejection. It is now being built and is also 4-7 storeys high, slightly higher than the Coop House opposite in Heaton Road. Commercial ground floor, 27 residential units, no social housing. The building now being constructed is shown in white to the right in the picture above.
Click here for the planning application
Copeland Road Car Park site 16/AP/3503
This is another housing development of 67, one, two and three bedroom flats which is 4 to 8 storeys. It adjoins the two storey houses Atwell Estate, the site at 213 Rye Lane, and the Copeland Road former car wash site. It is Council land and development so there is provision for social housing and mixed tenure and private housing. But taken together the three sites are considerable over-development and the mass and heights are over-bearing so close to the Rye Lane Conservation Area and the low rise Atwell Estate. The application was given approval on 8th November 2016:

Bournemouth Close:16/AP/1991
This is a new structure creating several new shop premises mainly to house the hairdressers to be relocated from the Blenheim Grove part of the station redevelopment. Amongst the several objections, some of those hairdresser businesses fear they will not survive on that site, and Atwell Estate residents fear significant noise and security disruption. Further information. The Planning Committee gave its approval to the Council plan.

Foxton's Estate Agents 212-228 Rye Lane: 16/AP/1113
Permission was given to create the Foxton style shop front. No permission was needed to change the use of the shop as it had previously been used as an employment service agency.

A kill by Adams forced set point at the 24-13 mark, but Texas was forced to fight off a 6-0 KU run before closing the stanza, 25-19.
Texas fell behind 6-1 to open the fourth and Kansas did not relent, pushing the margin to nine at the 18-9 mark before clinching a 25-16 set win.
A double-block by Allison and Adams stated Texas to a 4-1 lead to start the fifth and a pair of kills by Webster allowed UT to take hold of the set at the 12-6 mark. Another kill and a solo block by Webster sealed the set for UT and propelled it to a 15-8 win.

When the Pittsburgh Steelers saw charter buses waiting outside of their facility in Latrobe, Pennsylvania yesterday, they assumed that their coach was allowing them to skip their last day of camp and go to a movie theater. But head coach Mike Tomlin had different ideas. In fact, he was executing a prank conceived by Steelers kicker Jeff Reed.
It was all a ruse — there were no movies, no bowling alley excursion, no break on the last day at camp. Practice went on, and Tomlin only grinned at the prank orchestrated by Reed, the team's best-known jokester. The Arizona Cardinals may have had a day at the movies this week, but there will be no such day off for the Steelers.
"Just a little mental warfare," Tomlin said. "Sometimes people need to be horribly disappointed and then asked to perform. And they did pretty well." via.
Reed–who wasn't in on the joke as it happened–was actually hoping that Tomlin was planning to trick him and send the team out anyway. Like Reed had such a hard day ahead of him–kicking balls while kicking back beer* sounds like a better vacation than a lot of people get. And that's his job. The only thing easier would be sitting in front of a computer all day and making fun of a…oh.
*Probably not true

Always tighten any wheel in the proper sequence pattern in order to evenly distribute the load between the wheel and the hub. Use a torque wrench for the best result.
How to tighten wheels properly
4 Responses to How to tighten wheels properly
Derek November 19, 2008 at 4:28 pm #
You don't mention anything about damaging the rotors from over tightening the lug nuts. If your lug nuts are over tightened can the rotors warp or could it happen from improper torque of each lug nut? Meaning if some are over tightened and some are not can the rotor warp? I have found that over tightening lug nuts can cause them to warp but that is only my inexperienced opinion. What do you guys say?
Hi Derek, Yes, over tightening the lugs will cause the lugs to stretch. This will eventually lead to unbalancing, causing a pre-mature warp or shake on the wheels. A torque wrench will be the best tool to use when tightening the wheels.
Robert December 2, 2008 at 3:05 pm #
Re: the suggestion that one should not just finger-tight the lug nuts when the wheel is off the ground, but also use the torque wrench. How do you do this when turning the torque wrench simply causes the wheel to rotate? The reason that one hand-tightens the lug nuts and then lowers the vehicle to the ground, is that the friction between the tire and the ground allows the use of the torque wrench effectively.
Can you explain how to torque-tighten the lug nuts while the wheel is off the ground?

Selecting Secure File Sharing
With recent events like Snowden and NSA, it's no wonder corporations are taking another look at their security portfolios and asking questions around control over online file sharing and data storage. Companies are starting to define security requirements and take control of the consumerized technology within their organizations. Active steps are being taken to solve the security gaps around file sharing, mobile access, and data storage.
Market Overview
According to the 2014 Forrester Market Trends: Secure File Sharing and Collaboration in the Enterprise, 97% of information workers regularly communicate or collaborate with others within their company as part of their daily jobs. Additionally, 76% of informations workers collaborate with external clients on a regular basis. So according to Forrester, a majority of your employees are sharing information and collaborating with others inside and outside of the company. With this volume of sharing and collaboration occurring, there needs to be a way for IT to monitor and control the type of information being shared regardless of the device being used.
Who should be able to access and share data outside the corporate firewall?
The first step in taking control of the file sharing problem is for an organization to define who needs to be able to access and share files outside of the office or organization. Although the ESG Market Landscape report has found that 70% of IT managers believe that their users are leveraging personal file sharing and sync accounts for work, not everyone needs to be able to access corporate files outside of the office. And it is the business' responsibility to identify who falls under this category. According to Forrester this identity decision is not for the technology group to define, but should be defined by the business as a whole. Once users have been identified, they need to be provided with a simple and secure way to share files. Forrester also mentions that based on use cases and business requirements that a business may find that they require more than one solution to support their business needs. Currently, there are a number of options that exist, but it is up to the business to decide which one is right for the business.
Some organizations provide users with VPNs or virtual desktops to access their content outside of the office; however, this is costly and has a poor user experience is poor. Other users will resort to email, USB, CDs, and unsanctioned file sharing platforms like Dropbox. However, IT can step in and take control of the situation.
What type of data is allowed to be shared?
Forrester recommends the next step to take is to close the security gap that exists from file sharing, mobile access, and data storage is to define policies around the type of data allowed to be accessed and shared outside of the organization. Forrester says that the data belongs to the business and all those who create and use it. In IT, you need to understand this data that is being created and used so that you know what it is that you are protecting. Once you have identifies the type of data you are looking to protect, you may want to set data-aware polices that prevent sensitive information from being sent outside of the organization to reduce the risk of data loss.
What regulations do I need to adhere to around data storage?
After access groups and data policies have been defined, companies need to look at industry regulations around where their data can be stored. As we have seen with the NSA, data that is stored on a public server is subject to the rules of the region it resides in, and can be silent subpoenaed without the owner's knowledge. Forrester suggests considering compliance obligations, access control rights, data storage policies, or key management requirements your organization must adhere to. On the other hand, is there anywhere a file sharing system should not be able to connect to? Also, you should consider factors like risk tolerance, technology roadmaps, corporate culture, and storage costs when selecting a file sharing and sync solution for your business.
How does it integrate with existing business applications?
Finally, Forrester urges companies to look within their organization to see what systems already exist and how they can be leveraged. Most file sharing solutions offer extensions for mobile device access and plugins for business applications. These additions will enable your users to leverage the file sharing solution from within their normal workflows and will increase overall user adoption and can increase the ROI on your existing technology investments.
All-in-all, before investing in a secure file sharing and collaboration solution you need to know your business and its needs. File sharing and collaboration is something that should be enabled for organizations and it can be monitored and regulated.

TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Ed Clark Top Producer Business and Issues Editor Email Even without the unlikely and unthinkable event that the U.S. government to go into default, agriculture will still be affected by the nation's political and debt problems. "Some of the budget cuts aren't going to come back," says Jim Hilker, ag economist at Michigan State University. Assuming Congress and the Administration can forge a longer term deal that is not yet guaranteed, Hilker thinks required budget cuts could well mean the loss of some USDA reports. "Market efficiency could be reduced as a result," he says. Less market information would mean more price volatility, he adds. "For producers, marketing then becomes more risky." This is just one example of how government policy is a macro factor affecting prices and producer incomes, Hilker explains. In the absence of an political agreement to raise the debt ceiling, agriculture could be impacted in significant ways, and none of them good, says Pat Westhoff, director, Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI). Many private forecasters say the result would be higher interest rates and reduced economic growth here and abroad. As a result, global demand for farm products is hurt, commodity prices retreat, and land values retreat, Westhoff says. Meanwhile, the stock market had one of its best days of the year Oct. 10 after lawmakers began considering a potential deal that would temporarily stop the government from defaulting on its debt. However, the deal proposed by House Republicans would only increase the debt limit through Nov. 22, thus avoiding the Oct. 17 default date, and it would not end the partial government shutdown. The proposal, if accepted by President Obama, would simply delay a longer-term solution to Washington's fiscal fight that impacts agriculture as well as the entire U.S. and global economies. At the same time lawmakers are debating the budget, the $1.4 trillion deficit in 2009 has been more than cut in half to less than $700 billion today, Westhoff notes. "That's a big change." While the deficit is still large, without the reduction agriculture would likely be facing far larger program cuts, he adds. Regarding the partial government shutdown, the grain and oilseed supply chain is potentially is being impacted by a 53% furlough in the staff of the Federal Railroad Administration, a 54% furlough in staff at the Maritime Administration, and a 98% furlough in staff at the Surface Transportation Board. However, USDA's Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration and the Federal Grain Inspection Service that are supported by user fees will continue despite the shutdown, according to the American Soybean Association. In addition, the issuance of phytosanitary certificates by USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service for plant products bound for export will continue despite the shutdown, because those activities are also supported by user fees, ASA notes.

LONDON — Producer Pierre Spengler has confirmed that "Luchadores 5," to be directed Michael Olmos, will be the first movie to emerge from his 12-pic deal with European comicbook publisher Humanoids.
Project, scripted by Adrian A. Cruz, is based on the comicbook series "Lucha Libre," written by Belgian author Jerry Frissen and drawn by French artists Bill and Gobi.
Set in East Los Angeles, it's a comedy about five Latino wrestlers who form a masked vigilante group to clean up their neighborhood.
Spengler is best known as the producer of the original "Superman" films. His producing partner on "Luchadores" is Alexander Giger.
Olmos previously directed "Splinter," also scripted by Cruz, which was released last month in the U.S.
"Luchadores 5" is being prepped to shoot in early 2008.

Abu Dhabi will be host to a brand new landscape event which will see government dignitaries, design experts and technology suppliers meet to talk landscaping, a US$55 billion industry which is growing at unprecedented levels in the Middle East. Launched as the "Middle East Smart Landscape Summit' this inaugural event is set to take place on 27 & 28 May 2013 under the patronage of the Municipality of Abu Dhabi City, which has been at the forefront of green space policy in the wake of major urban project development and a heightened focus on sustainability in the UAE.
The continued growth of the MENA region and quick recovery from the effects of the GFC has intensified demand for sustainable landscape products and service. The planned spend on major projects including theme parks and other tourist attractions in the GCC is US$3 trillion, and a fresh investment in the UAE construction industry is expected to provide the landscape sector around US$3.8 billion worth of new projects in 2013. In addition, the UAE is currently implementing a new Landscape and Greenery Law which stipulates that all developers must incorporate at least 25 per cent of landscaped area or green space into plans for residential, commercial and leisure projects as part of the drive to improve sustainable practices in the region.
The Middle East Smart Landscape Summit has already drawn interest from municipalities, landscape architects and designers, urban developers, irrigation specialists and solution suppliers looking to learn the latest trends in sustainable landscaping and get wind of the projects and new opportunities in the Middle East region. Hot topics that are expected to be on the agenda include the ongoing and upcoming projects by the Municipality of Abu Dhabi City and other government departments, new technologies and techniques for water and energy efficiency, the planting of native trees and plants, architectural design to induce the cooling of parks and recreational areas, lighting, smart landscape materials and cutting-edge irrigation technologies.
The chance to rub shoulders with key industry players will undoubtedly be one of the major draw cards to this event which strives to be Middle East's leading landscape conference. Prominent local and international figures are in the pipeline to offer their thoughts on the current state of the industry, and their vision and best practice for the future in presentations over 2 days. Case-studies, panel discussions and round-table discussions will also provide learning and knowledge-sharing opportunities, along with networking sessions and an exhibition lounge to discover the latest and greatest in sustainable landscape technologies.
Building on the success of the Middle East Smart Lighting Summit which was held in Abu Dhabi in October 2012, conference and event organizers Expotrade Global believe the Middle East Smart Landscape Summit is pertinent to the developments in the region;
"The Middle East Smart Landscape Summit will facilitate discussion between industry thought-leaders, decision-makers and solution providers in an intimate and highly-targeted environment to discuss the growth of the landscape industry in the Middle East and the importance of integrating smart and sustainable best practices. The event is very timely considering new policies and mega projects such as Al Reem Island, Dubai Sustainable City, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, and the continued development of Saadiyat Island. I'm sure that attendees will be particularly interested in learning of upcoming opportunities by municipalities and key trends revolutionizing this exciting industry", says Jo Ann Jain, Director at Expotrade Global.
Expotrade Global is a conference and event organizer with head office based in Melbourne and regional office in Dubai. Specializing in B2B conferences Expotrade has delivered some of the most renowned events in the infrastructure, IT, mining and resources, sustainability, banking, lighting and energy sectors.

Promotion for AMSEC's Harris Leonard
Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) has promoted Harris Leonard to vice president of Northrop Grumman Newport News' AMSEC Operations. He will also serve as president of the AMSEC subsidiary.
Leonard's appointment follows the restructuring of the Northrop Grumman and Science Applications International Corporation (NYSE:SAI) joint venture, AMSEC LLC, that divided the company along customer and product lines , with parts of AMSEC being distributed to SAIC (which got the aviation, combat systems and strike force integration services businesses).
AMSEC is now a subsidiary of Northrop Grumman's Newport News sector and is a full-service provider of engineering, logistics and technical support services primarily to Navy ship programs.
In his new role, Leonard is responsible for all aspects of AMSEC's daily operations, which includes approximately 2,400 employees in more than 22 locations worldwide. He reports to Irwin F. Edenzon, vice president of technology development and fleet support for Northrop Grumman's Newport News sector.
"Harris has been a major factor in AMSEC's growth over the past eight years,'' said Edenzon. "His focus on customer requirements and meeting commitments is the right combination of leadership skills for the job.''
Prior to his promotion, Leonard served as AMSEC's acting director of operations and was responsible for AMSEC's daily operations. Previously, he was senior vice president and business area manager for the logistics and engineering services operation of AMSEC.
Leonard joined Northrop Grumman's Newport News sector in 1985 as an engineer and has been progressively promoted into various management positions. He served as a manager for the company's Asheville Industries and Washington, D.C. engineering office and as director of the life cycle engineering department. In June 1999, Leonard and the life cycle engineering department joined AMSEC LLC when the business partnership between Science Applications International Corporation and Newport News was formed.
Leonard served in the United States Navy Nuclear Power Program on the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) and USS James Madison (SSBN-627). He retired as a Naval Reserve Officer in 1997. He earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Clemson University.

This salsalike hot sauce turns up wherever Brazilians grill meats. The chile of choice is a pepper called pimenta malagueta; the strength of its fiery bite is inversely proportional to its tiny dimensions. Pimenta malagueta come packed in vinegar in bottles at Brazilian markets. Other possibilities for chiles include Thai or bird peppers, serrano or jalapeño peppers, or even hot red pepper flakes. The traditional way to eat grilled meats in Brazil is to spoon this sauce on top, then sprinkle the meat with farofa (toasted manioc flour).
Step 1: Combine the onion, tomato, bell pepper, pimenta malagueta, olive oil, lime juice, wine vinegar, and 1⁄4 cup of water in a small nonreactive bowl and stir to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding salt and black pepper to taste and more wine vinegar if necessary; the sauce should be highly seasoned.
Step 2: Serve the sauce at room temperature — the same day you make it.

Recent reviews
Exceptional 9.6 From 56 reviews
We splurged on a riverside room, and the views were amazing! Service was five star, in my judgement. There was a tray of fruit and chocolates waiting for us upon check in. Every request was fulfulled cheerfully. Location was central, so we walked everywhere.
Great location and comfortable room. Would definitely recommend.
The bed and pillows are too soft and my back hurt.
Beautiful hotel in heart of Zürich. A little challenging to drive to, when you get the area , ask for specific directions. Worth the effort!
This was my second time at Storchen and I absolutely love this hotel. It is in the heart of Zurich, everything is a short walk away from it and the views are incredible. I would recommend the premium to get a river view as you will look out upon the Grossmunster church and a ton of the city. They had redone the rooms since the last time I had been and it is a totally modern room in an historic hotel which is awesome. The staff is exceptional and the restaurants and bar are awesome, they also added a fitness facility in the renovation. The only downside is that if you are driving in, the access is a little funky but with halfway decent directions, you'll manage. I can't say enough good things about this hotel. If you are looking at places in this price range and and exceptional way to experience Zurich, choose this hotel.
