The allies of the Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF) recently welcomed the professional Moslem cleric turned politician Yusif al-Koda in their Kampala habitat. Yusif and the Chairman of the Sudan People's Liberation Army/Movement in North Sudan (SPLA/M-N) Malik Agar, also the Chairman of the SRF, signed on 31 January a joint political statement of four articles: the guarantee of the unity of the country, public freedoms, the rule of law, the independence of the judiciary, peaceful transition of power and the federal system of government; the guarantee of citizenship as a basis for rights and duties without regard to religion, race, colour, geographical or political affiliation; issues of dispute between the political forces such as the system of rule and the relationship between state and religion should be deferred till further dialogue, preferably in the context of a constitutional conference. The fourth article stated that Yusif al-Koda's organisation, al-Wasat Islamic Party, is a political party registered according to law in Sudan that ascribes only to peaceful popular struggle and dialogue as means of change, an indemnity note I guess.
The SRF event was titled 'al-Wasat Islamic Party signs the New Dawn Charter', which is simply not true. Yusif did not sign the Charter, and once that became clear the Sudan [Islamic] Scholars' Board, the highest formal religious authority in the country, withdrew the apostasy charge it had threatened with to discipline its dissident member. The Secretary General of the Board, Mohamed Osman Salih, told the Sudan News Agency that every Moslem is obliged to acknowledge the rule of Allah, as laid out in the Holy Quran and the Sunna of his prophet. Salih said the press misinterpreted his criticism of al-Koda's step as an apostasy declaration while his concern was to explain the religious obligation to adhere to sharia, and the violation of this obligation that follows from agreeing with the proposition of the New Dawn Charter to separate between religion and the state. The semantics of the debacle are worth detailing. The Charter does not actually spell out separation between religion and the state as such; instead it calls for "constitutional and legal provisions based on the separation between religious institutions and state institutions to guarantee that religion is not exploited in politics". The convoluted phrase was arrived at to satisfy the ideological histories and preferences of the motley of forces that signed the Charter. The Justice and Equality Movement (JEM), for instance, feeds from strong roots in the Islamic Movement; its top cadres, almost without exception, look back to a history of student activism in the ranks of the Movement in the 1980s and in the service of its regime in the 1990s. The SPLA/M-N figureheads and Abd al-Wahid al-Nur would have preferred a frank declaration of secular creed, while some of the visitors from Khartoum, representatives of the National Consensus Forces (NCF), possibly argued for deferral, as did Yusif al-Koda, but did not get it, since it is deferral that they agreed upon in their own charter, the Democratic Alternative.
The limits of this sharia poetry were put on display when al-Koda joined the debate. The Saudi-trained preacher presented his grievance against his former custodians in the ruling NCP in distinctively secular terms; he complained of nepotism, corruption, lack of public freedoms and so on. The hosts, delighted by the presence of a Salafi sheikh in their midst, borrowed the sharia discourse to impress upon their potential Youtube audience the NCP's abuse of the transcendent values of Islam for the sake of power, an argument that once abstracted copies the puritanical twist at the heart of every 'revivalist' political project under Islamic banner. Plainly put, Yusif al-Koda seemed for a moment closer to passing the test of secularism than the SRF allies, and why not? Yusif is the younger brother of two other 'political' Kodas: Osman al-Koda who as a fresh communist soldier, barely twenty, freed the Communist Party Secretary General, Abd al-Khalig Mahjoub, from detention in the Shajara military barracks south of Khartoum shortly before the abortive 1971 coup, and Mubarak al-Koda, a committed Islamic Movement functionary who served in several minor posts in the NCP government over the years. Yusif on the other hand moved from Ansar al-Sunna preacher to TV fatwa-man to pro-NCP Islamic moderate to full-blown opposition politician with a Turabist taste for surprises. The pathways of the three brothers are typical of the adaptive response of Sudan's rural communities to the shenanigans of the urban political elite, each positioned neatly in a strategic locus of the rainbow.
In 2001, Turabi's party, the Popular Congress Party, signed a memorandum of understanding with the SPLA/M that was supposed to function as a voucher into the post-NCP Sudan. The agreement landed Turabi in prison but did not encase the SPLA/M in sharia baraka (blessing) considering that its new ally was the country's most prominent sharia proponent. Today, recognized opposition to the NCP joins the PCP, Sadiq al-Mahdi's National Umma Party (NUP) and shreds of Mohamed Osman al-Mirghani's Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), none of which are sharia-shy, but the holy flare remains nevertheless elusive. Rather it is the fringe Salafis whom al-Koda fled to the political elite who appear more successful in harnessing the dream of Islamic 'liberation'.

When I first started looking up information on the Greek Community and culture for Zorba, I came across a series of commercials by Kraft for their Athenos line of food products. This was truly the first commercial series that made me laugh out loud.
I thought, wouldn't it be fun to create some Yiayia videos of our own for Zorba? So I did.
Chris Macomber, Gayle Dawn Hill, Bill Olson, and Dave Dobrusky were amazing sports. I hope you enjoy our version of Yiayia!
Zorba is playing through May 20, 2012 at the Eureka Theatre, 215 Jackson Street between Front and Battery.

Along with the company papers, the collection contains family materials, including a number of letters from Hyde's sister, wife, and stepmother. Letters from Lucy B. B. Hyde (Henry B. Hyde's sister) written to her father, Henry H. Hyde, in 1869 while she was living in New York City and studying drawing, reveal her independent nature, her dislike of materialism, and her ideas about spirituality. Lucy had traveled to Europe and in her letters tried to convince her father to travel abroad with her. Letters from Annie Hyde to her husband, Henry B. Hyde, written while he was traveling around the world, describe her daily occupations, including visiting friends, museums, the theater, and church. She considered traveling to England to meet her husband but decided she did not want to leave her children, but also stated that she was "too timid, too much of a baby" to make the trip across the Atlantic alone.

Recently, Barack Obama, in an attempt to smear Republicans, also smeared President Rutherford B Hayes:
In a speech attacking Republicans as "flat-earthers" Obama asserted: "One of my predecessors, Rutherford B. Hayes, reportedly said about the telephone, 'It's a great invention, but who would ever want to use one?' That's why he's not on Mount Rushmore because he's looking backwards. He's not looking forwards. He's explaining why we can't do something, instead of why we can do something." The Post's Glenn Kessler easily nails him with four Pinocchios for his slur on Hayes
( Washington Post )
In fat, though, President Hayes was at the "bleeding edge" of technology for his time, having a telephone installed in the White House when there were less than 200 connected phones in the USA.

SOCORRO, N.M., March 28, 2002 -- The second annual New Mexico ROBORAVE high-school robotics competition will take place from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 6, on the New Mexico Tech campus, with about 35 teams from New Mexico, El Paso, and Juarez high schools scheduled to compete.
Participating teams comprised of four or five high school students each will put their autonomous (not remotely controlled) robots to the test by programming the pie-plate-sized devices to follow a maze of black lines laid out on a white, four-foot by eight-foot sheet of foam-core board and then deliver a ping-pong ball to a receptacle atop a small tower -- all within an allowable three-minute period.
Most of the team-designed robots competing in ROBORAVE were constructed with basic materials from Lego Mindstorm Kits or New Mexico Tech Mobile Robot Kits (NMT-MRKs).
"The NMT-MRK is a small, yet robust, mobile robot kit that includes a microprocessor/microcontroller, proximity sensors, motors, interfacing electronics, and development software," says Stephen Bruder, associate professor of electrical engineering at New Mexico Tech and research scientist with the university's Robotics Research Group.
"The motherboard used in these kits -- the brains of the robot, if you will -- was entirely designed and constructed at New Mexico Tech," he adds.
Through a robotics outreach program initiated this past year at the state-supported research university, 20 NMT-MRKs were distributed to 20 high schools in and around New Mexico, with funding provided for the program by Tech President Daniel H. López and several of his vice presidents.
Almost all of the distributed NMT-MRKs will make it back to the Tech campus in the form of entries in the ROBORAVE competition.
"The purpose of starting up our robotics outreach program, as well as hosting robotics competitions such as ROBORAVE, is to encourage students at the high-school level to get actively involved in the type of activities that will eventually develop engineers for the future," Bruder says.
The robotics competition, most of which will take place in the New Mexico Tech Gymnasium, also will include a more static portion devoted to team presentations and portfolios, which will account for half of the possible points that teams can garner during the five-match contest.

Second entry of a complex and beautifully rendered historical-fantasy trilogy (Range of Ghosts, 2012).
Prime mover in all the churning plots and intrigues here is ambitious necromancer and blood-sorcerer al-Sepehr, head of the Nameless assassin cult. He has arranged to install usurper Qori Buqa as ruler of the nomad horse-warrior Khaganate Empire, although he failed to kill Temur, the true heir and Qori Buqa's nephew. Having captured Edene, Temur's woman, al-Sepehr conveyed her to his remote, impregnable fortress, Ala-Din. Resourceful Edene, however, stole a mysteriously powerful green ring and escaped—though Temur doesn't yet know this. Edene flees to Erem, capital of a long-extinct empire whose magic was feared by all, where now heavily pregnant, she's declared queen by the nonhuman ghuls because of the ring. Hoping to rally the horse-clans to his cause, Temur sets off with his companions, Samarkar the wizard and Hrahima, a huge human-tiger Cho-tse warrior, to rescue Edene. Al-Sepehr sends his daughter and agent, Saadet—she carries in her head the mind of her slain brother, Shahruz, previously slain by Temur—to beguile and bamboozle Qori Buqa, his supposed ally. Meanwhile, al-Sepehr studies the magic of Erem, forcing slave-women to read aloud from books of magic so powerful that the mere act of reading them causes blindness. And the Rasan Empire, riven by internal politics and treachery, suffers a lethal plague whence tiny demons hatch in the lungs of its victims. All this is less tightly woven than the first volume, and in one or two places, Bear forgoes logic for furious action and writes herself into a corner. Still, these are minor blemishes amid the meticulously detailed cultural and geographic backdrop.
A compelling follow-up that no fan of Book 1 will want to miss.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
EEOC Says Women Subjected to Groping and Sexual Advances by Male Managers
SAN DIEGO -- The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today announced a class litigation settlement against Hometown Buffet, Inc., on behalf of teens and Latinas who were subjected to a sexually hostile workplace, including verbal and physical abuse, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.
Specifically, the EEOC alleged that Hometown Buffet failed to prevent and tolerated a pattern of ongoing sexual harassment in which male managers, supervisors, and co-workers subjected female employees to a sexually hostile workplace, including groping, hugging, kissing, sexual advances, and stalking employees outside the workplace. One female victim was allegedly raped by a male co-worker. The EEOC further alleged that due to the female employees' young age and/or lack of English proficiency, a breakdown in the company's complaint process failed to adequately remedy the sexual harassment.
In addition to a monetary settlement of $710,000, the two-year consent decree resolving the matter will also ensure the implementation of measures to prevent and remedy sexual harassment at the company's El Cajon location. These measures include annual training for employees, managers, and supervisors regarding sexual harassment and retaliation; a formal complaint procedure with close tracking of any future complaints; and, providing annual reports to the EEOC regarding future complaints and remedial action.
"Sexual assaults are increasingly becoming more commonplace in sexual harassment cases," said EEOC Regional Attorney Anna Y. Park of the agency's Los Angeles District Office. "During this economic downturn, it is more important than ever for employers to actively ensure a workplace free of hostility. What may appear to be a short term gain by cutting out training on EEO laws, may result in long term cost to a company if claims of discrimination are not actively prevented or corrected."
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

I've got some bad news for you.
Right now, you're reading one of the most relevant, controversial, popular, and opinionated blogs about the world of publishing, and it is an epic fail on your part.
You want my sales. That's a statement, not a question. Or if you're dreaming even bigger, you want John Locke's or Amanda Hocking's sales. You want to make enough money to retire within the next 12 months. And you've dropped by my blog to learn how.
Maybe you've been following me for years. Maybe you just discovered me via a Twitter mention. Maybe you heard about me from a friend who said you should come here. If that's the case, your friend wasn't doing you any favors.
Because this blog is a time suck. There are hundreds of entries to read, and tens of thousands of comments. It's easy to get pulled in and waste hours, days, weeks.
Here's the bottom line: every minute you spend here is a minute you aren't spending on your writing.
You want my sales? I've got 40 different ebook titles currently selling. I'll have five more by the end of the year.
Amanda Hocking? Eleven so far. That Locke guy? Eleven. My writing partner Blake Crouch has more than 20 titles. That's why he's making over $30k a month, and you're not.
You'll notice Amanda doesn't comment here anymore, when she used to with regularity. Blake will pop in every once and a while and leave a comment, but he doesn't stick around.
That's because they're doing what you should be doing.
They're writing.
I'm lucky enough to be a full time writer, and I'm fast enough that I can waste my time here and still churn out more publishable words than most. And while it tickles me to get hundreds of comments to my posts, and though my message is no doubt being heard by many writers who are benefiting from it, the best thing you can do for your career isn't reading A Newbie's Guide to Publishing.
The best thing you can do is write. The more, the better.
How many words have you written today?

His bot thinks that Debian is peachy, while running on Fedora, and feeling warm and fuzzy towards Centos. It thinks SuSE is Sexy, Mandriva is Magic, and even manages to have great respect for those that just start from sources and build the whole damn thing, automagically or not. rgb is very, very slightly less enamored of "on-top-of" cluster linuces, not because they aren't marvelous works of collective beauty but because for many purposes the larger distros have engulfed them and simply co-opted many of the packages they once provided as "extra". Fedora 10 is up to some 15,000 prebuilt packages (including GROMACS as well), and of course it is STILL far behind Debian (but EVERYTHING is behind Debian in raw package count;-). Note well that he still loves them as well, but thinks of them as sort of like kissing your sister, or perhaps your aunt Katie -- the one that always gives you $100 for your birthday but who likes to pinch your cheek and has a mustache.

If your apps won't (or > won't readily ) run on your OS, you need a different OS. With that said, I of course agree dead on with this statement. However, I just wanted (and continue to want) a concrete statement of just what the cluster consists of and what he plans to do with it before messing with the question. We also need to identify whether or not we're starting at the "This is called a `category 5 ethernet cable' and plugs into this `RJ-45 Jack' that you can find on the back of your computer case" level or if we're simply telling him how to install GROMACS (or whatever) on a PoPC already set up on a network and getting him to where he can start it on the command line. > In my case I primarily run CentOS because it provides support for a number of > apps that are pre-built for RedHat and has the tools I need to build new > apps.

Home installs are a PITA, no doubt. Distros are now rather large, and watching a multi-GB-through-DSL install is like watching an enterprising yellowjacket try to down a triple-cream mocha enorme through its itty bitty probiscis. Come back later. Much later.

If an OS > will not readily support the apps, you need a new OS. Absolutely. And as soon as we find out what he wants to do and what he's trying to do it on, we'll figure out if he needs a new OS. But he probably CAN get by with Debian OR Centos OR Fedora OR Oscarocks OR SL OR SuSE -- with only mildly differential work. So we need to eventually hear how skilled he is with any of the distros. If he's never used anything but Windows (installed by somebody else) then reinstalling to ANY of them is going to be an uphill battle compared to (maybe) running apt to get whatever. And assuming he's in India, I have no idea what HIS bandwidth issues are. If he's someplace small and relatively poor with a very thin and heavily shared pipe to the outside world, a reinstall to anything at all might well entail waiting on that damn yellowjacket, or in his case these orange-yellow paper wasps that like to come to water sources and whose stings (I know from bitter experience) hurt like hell. I'd hate to see one hopped up on a double espresso and a whole lot of sugar... rgb > > > Mike > _______________________________________________ > Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf at beowulf.org > To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit > http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf > Robert G.

Missouri Western State University, St. Joseph, MO, accepted a $220,000 bid to renovate the Baker Family Fitness Center. The renovations mostly affect the weight room and cardio workout area of the fitness center.
By removing some walls, the renovation will expand the cardio area for a more open fitness center appearance. The renovation includes gutting the old football coaches' offices to develop a large multipurpose room that can be used for fitness or classes.
New restrooms and a larger reception area are planned for the front of the building, the current locker rooms will be refurbished with new fixtures and flooring, and a laundry room will be added in the former football conference room, Missouri Sports Magazine reported. A training room will be renovated to become the first locker room for the Griffon women's soccer team.
"The renovations will make the fitness center more inviting and pleasant for the students, employees, alumni and Gold Coat Club members who get so much use out of it already," Kurt McGuffin, director of athletics, told the magazine. "The project will also add a much-needed locker room for our women's soccer team."
Brooner & Associates Construction Inc.'s bid of $220,932 was the lowest among the five St. Joseph contractors that bid on the project. The project will be funded by Max Experience student fees and money set aside for renovation projects in the university's auxiliary budget, the magazine reported.

Late September is often cool and crisp, punctuated by the smell of woodsmoke as people start using their fireplaces to take the chill off rather than fire up the gas-burning boiler. Grass mowing ends as the cool air ends the growing season and the tomato crop withers on the vine.
Not this year.
It has been hot, like middle-of-summer hot here for a week now. Research vessels in to prep for peregrinations to southern climes are lingering to enjoy the fine weather. Even the hard-working scientists are off early to go fishing or ride the bikepath. I know the locals are into it because I see people sneeking off from work in their bathing suits, and heads bobbing way out in Buzzards Bay on long-distance swims. In this calm, warm weather, why not?
I got out in my boat over the weekend, trudging across to Great Harbor with my oars, launching my tiny rowboat from the beach on Penzance and rowing out to my slightly bigger boat to go explore the Elizabeth Islands. I brought a sweatshirt because you never know on the water but, wow, was that unnecessary! It was so hot I was yearning to jump in by the time I had the engine fired up.
Woods Hole Great Harbor is filled with the most wonderful and eccentric boats. I love this one, a tiny tug boat all made of well-polished wood from another era. Not too practical, but adorable.
Clearly, I am a little obsessed with this vessel as I look through my photo-files for other shots of the harbor and find only more of the "Amycita." I don't see her off the mooring often, but I do look forward to meeting her owners. Imagine a cruise over to Oak Bluffs (a great destination on Martha's Vineyard) in this stylish vessel!
And this is NOT the only miniature tug in our little harbor. My friend Kimberly is lucky enough to have this wonderful boat, small as the smallest skiff but ooh, what style. She was seen leaving work early yesterday madly texting to friends about a sunset tug cruise. These are the perks of living so close to the water:)
So I guess this is what you would call Indian Summer. Since my visit to Plimouth Plantation, I may need to re-name that Native People's Summer. Whatever you call it, it is something to be relished — summer weather long after is it expected to be gone is like a gift from the Gods (the Wampanoags called him/her "Moshop"). Something to inspire us and help us prepare for the long winter ahead.
Off to swim!

What is IRS Circular 230?
The Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service have been engaged in an effort to curb abusive tax shelters. As part of this effort, they have issued final regulations under IRS Circular 230 "… to restore, promote, and maintain the public's confidence in those individuals and firms …" who act as tax advisors.
This is an explanation of how our correspondence with you (including e-mails) will be affected by new IRS regulations governing tax practitioners.
The new rules in effect require us to add certain standard language to many of our letters, memos, e-mails, and other correspondence concerning federal tax matters. You have probably already seen similar language on written communications from your own professional legal or tax advisers. Although the specific wording may vary depending on the circumstances, you can expect to see notices similar to the following:
IRS CIRCULAR 230 NOTICE: To the extent that this message or any attachment concerns tax matters, it is not intended to be used and cannot be used by a taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed by law.
The new rules require such notices to be "prominently disclosed," i.e., "readily apparent" to the reader. The notice must be in a separate section (but not in a footnote) of the correspondence. Also, "fine-print" notices won't work. The typeface used must be at least the same size as the typeface used in any discussion of facts or law.
A practitioner who fails to satisfy the requirement of the new rules risks censure, disbarment and substantial penalties.
Please be assured that this new policy does not reflect any decrease in the quality of our services or the amount of thought we put into our correspondence with you.
Please visit the IRS site http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-utl/pcir230.pdf or contact us if you would like to receive more detailed information about the new rules or if you have any questions or concerns.

Best Product Awards for 2010
The SECRETS Editorial Team is pleased to announce the Best of 2010 Awards. This year we have added some new categories for Media, so look for our awards in the Blu-ray, CD and Vinyl Recordings. And we have established a new award (it is so "Bad", you will have to go to the second page to see it). The Editorial Team also wants to highlight the technologies that we will be paying attention to in 2011, so look for the "Technologies on the Rise Awards".
Congratulations to all of our 2010 WINNERS!!
Bad Ass Award for 2010
This year, we announced an award in a new category: "The Bad Ass Award". It won't necessarily be given out each year, but in 2010, the Paradigm SUB 2 tested so outrageously good, we decided it deserved the moniker, "Bad Ass.â€
Best Media Awards for 2010
Technologies on the Rise
One of the most talked-about technologies this past year has been 3D displays. Every manufacturer has introduced models that are compatible with the new Blu-ray 3D format as well as broadcast feeds from DirectTV on select sports channels. Some TVs even convert 2D material to 3D. Despite the large selection of products available 3D is still firmly in the category of emerging technology. While we at Secrets think it's important to showcase cutting-edge products with Best Of awards, 3D TVs are not quite at a stage where they are worthy of special recognition.
LCD TVs in particular display image artifacts with 3D content that are too significant to ignore. The single display we reviewed, a Toshiba WX800 Cinema Series panel, did not perform well enough in 3D mode to earn an award. As a 2D television, it showed admirable performance in all testing but it was not a stand-out nor did it improve on existing tech. The addition of 3D did not make it a better TV than its predecessors or its competitors.
That is really the crux of the matter. We couldn't come up with any winners in this category because the addition of 3D did not constitute an award-worthy advance in display technology. In the past panels like the Pioneer Kuro plasma were special because they raised the bar for video performance. At this point, 3D is a new feature but not an advance in imaging per se. We will watch this closely during the coming year and hope to have 2011 models in our theaters for review. I look forward to working with more displays and being able to make new and better observations from a broader frame of reference.
Chris Eberle, Senior Editor
Media streaming around the home is a technology that is coming on strong for video and audio, as evidenced by our award for an audio streaming device this year in the Squeezebox Touch. It is also an area that we have been keeping a close eye on and will be covering more in the future. However, we felt that we were unable to award a prize for overall media streaming for a variety of reasons, and so we would like to explain this choice.
The first problem still facing media streaming is the lack of interoperability of content among devices. If you purchase a Blu-ray player, all your movies will play, but depending on the device you purchase for media streaming, that might not be the case. Netflix has seemingly become the one standard among all devices, though it can lack in quality compared to services like Vudu and the implementations among devices can vary widely in quality and ease of use. Many companies that have setup media streamers have setup their own content, such as Apple, that is tied to their specific hardware, leaving you only one choice if you want that content.
Additionally, the task of creating your own content is still more complex than it needs to be. Perhaps the most common format for films now is a version of h.264 compression for video, with AC3 for surround audio and usually in a container such as MKV. Most devices support this format, but some might not support h.264 without certain flags enabled or disabled, or their AC3 handing might not work correctly, or many other issues. The easiest solution is to simply rip a complete image of a movie you own (a .ISO) to your personal media server, so that your films are available in their original quality, with all the extras, but many devices don't support this for fear of piracy.
In the end, while there are many devices that people can use to stream their audio and video content , we don't see a clear winner in this category just yet. Fortunately, there are many new products that look promising, and there will certainly be a lot more to come at CES and other events throughout the upcoming year.
Chris Heinonen, Senior Editor
Switching technology in audio amplifiers took a huge leap forward with the introduction of the Mark Levinson No 53 power amplifier. It performed so well, we think that this technology belongs on the watch list for 2011, as we expect other companies to also improve their versions of switching amplifiers.
John Johnson, Editor-in-Chief

Those of us who live busy lives, those of us who are getting older, those of us who are dealing with both, are so thankful for the invention of the sticky note. Did you know it started with a guy looking for a way to bookmark his Church hymnal? Art Fry wanted a bookmark for his hymnal that wouldn't fall out or damage the page. He happened to know Spencer Silver who worked at 3M who had invented glue that stuck pretty well, but wouldn't leave a mark. Suddenly…BOOM, 3M had the Sticky Notes that have changed our lives.

The S&M WTF. Being over here on the other side of the world I don't have that patriotic little piece of DNA that genetically pre-disposes me to loving everything that S&M do. But I like this. Sure all these ideas aren't going to work. Maybe even none of them will end up as practical, but it's a whole lot of radically different ideas packed into one bike. It'd be cool to ride the thing and see how it feels.
In case you didn't watch the video, here's the run down: The S&M WTF is a complete bike that weighs in at 20lbs without a piece of titanium in sight (and at a guess I'd say without any post-weld heat treatment either). The fork legs are shorter by 1/2". Wtf? To save weight. And the head tube is 5/8" shorter than a standard frame. That's got to really change the geometry of the frame - have they adjusted the BB height and head angle to compensate? Don't know.
Then there's the shorter pitch chain and the sprocket with little miniature teeth to fit the chain! Wtf? Apparently this allows for even smaller drive trains than what's around now. Read: 7 tooth rear driver. It's an interesting idea, but it's going to have to do some serious self-promotion before everyone rushes out for new sprockets, drivers and chains.
Next: The Black hole dropouts on fork and frame. Clearly it'll work on the fork, though I think people will need a little convincing as to the point of it, but on the back end? Wtf? How's that going to work? Really small drive trains with no chain adjustment sounds like chain slap hell to me.
And just for the record, not only does the hub have brass bushings replacing the driver bearings, but there are also little holes drilled in each of the driver teeth. It's all getting very cute.

those Slam XL's at the end were pretty damn funny. I know he showed them on a web video before, but his joke about big bars and bringing them to interbike was genious!

- box dog ian said...
don't read 7t driver. read 36/13 that is the size of a 25/9. since the chain links are closer together it has less trouble wrapping around a small rear cog. I think that something the size of a normal 7t driver would require reducing the size of the axle under the driver.
- September 26, 2009 at 11:29 AM
- Jeff said...
box dog ian,
good point, point taken, over-looked that. but you'd probably be winning some space by using a brass bushing instead of bearings, so you might still be able to get down to a mini 10t driver or something. So is there a general feeling that this isn't a Moeller hoax then?
- September 27, 2009 at 12:06 AM
- box dog ian said...
word to the bushings, i kind of forgot that option cropped up. i think the bars are the moeller joke of the year. I saw the bike at interbike and i feel like it's too well produced to be a hoax. they seemed to be genuinely excited about it, at any rate.
- September 28, 2009 at 7:53 AM
- Mexican John said...
Hoax or no hoax, who really needs a 20lbs bike? Frames are snapping all over the place because the strength to weight ratio has been over stepped..
- September 28, 2009 at 1:54 PM
- Jeff said...
Yeah, way too much design time on that sprocket and fork alone.
- September 28, 2009 at 6:04 PM
- Jeff said...
Yeah, it seems like the bottom's been reached weight wise, but some frames are post-weld treated, some aren't, some are internally butted, some aren't. With all the right technology and quality control it might be feasible to keep making frames in the low 4lb's. I haven't personally heard of any S&Ms snapping and the LTF is like 4.3 or 4.4 or something. And that's not even post weld-trreated. It's interesting though, that WTP have gone closer to the 5lb mark for all their new frames.

- james wade said...
i personally don't understand all the fuss about light bikes. i wish the industry would find something else to focus on, because all things being held constant, lighter equals weaker.
i don't abuse my bike, but i do give it a bit of a workout. you know, i have these things called pegs, i have four of them, and i do grinds on all of them. and i like jumping over stuff. and sometimes i mess up.
why can't bike companies be sensible about strength and weight, and differentiate on bullshit like fluro colours?
- September 28, 2009 at 9:45 PM
- james wade said...
oh and PS - i'm not an old dork that wants to return to 30+ pound bikes. i just want a bike that is functional and lasts somewhere between 12-24 months of solid use.

just to add something, the hole in the dropout (frame dropout) is an oval, not just a hole, so you can still adjust chain tension.

I just wanted to post about the oval... like some sprocket holes.

$4oo+ for the frame and fork-$300+ for female axles-I'll stick with a frame that is compatible with the hubs I have-I mean...this is BMX not mountainbiking...right?

I agree with the weight thing.Ten years ago,people were doing the same shit on their bikes with 40 pounders.What's next...bikes that automatically jump and do the tricks for you?Take your mother's tit out of your mouths and do some push-ups or something,kids!
- February 9, 2010 at 6:08 PM
- Anonymous said...
basically the same, just a little "improvements" could be interesting use hidroforming to get one piece rear end, i mean eliminate some welds, that would increase the strength and reduce weigth.. and increase costs too jajajaja
is a good bike but i dont know if i would like have one
greetings from Mexico!

To promote my horror novel, AFRAID, which debuts March 31, I'm appearing on different blogs every single day in March.
Please follow my daily journey, and broaden your blog-reading horizons.
Today I'm over at First Offenders, wondering why authors don't recommend each other more often:
Then I pop over to Jake Nantz's blog, The Pen-ferno, to share a cool writing exercise and contest where you can win some free books:
Also, RJ Medak posted a kind review of Afraid on his blog, and many other places online:
Is this blog tour working? On March 1, Googling "Jack Kilborn" resulted in 2880 hits. Googling it today brings 5320 hits. On March 1, Googling "JA Konrath" resulted in 68,400 hits. Googling it today produces 79,000 hits.
My blog and website, along with the blogs I've been visiting, are getting increased traffic. My Amazon rankings have modestly spiked, at various points in the day fluctuating between 25,000 and 300,000 for Afraid and my Jack Daniels backlist. Prior to March they were ranked between 150,000 and 900,000.
I find it strange that my Jack Daniels books seem to be selling better than Afraid, since Afraid is the book I'm promoting, but I think I know the reason. Afraid isn't out until March 31. Thinking about my buying habits, I've never pre-ordered a book on Amazon, and I've bought well over a hundred books from them. My reason is simple: if it's a book I want, I know the bookstores will have it sooner than Amazon can ship it, especially since books often reach the stores a week or two ahead of schedule.
That's why, on Amazon, the day a book is released, the numbers spike like crazy. So the real test to see if this tour worked will be to check out the Amazon ranking on April 1. If I get a nice number, all of this touring paid off. If I get a mediocre number, I'm left scratching my head.
But I have to say that, as of today, I've found blog touring to be an overwhelmingly positive experience. Especially in regards to permanence.
Roughly half of the daily hits I get on his blog are people visiting old posts. Because the Internet is permanent, and because blog posts stay live and Googleable for years and years, all of these guest blogs and interviews I've done will continue to get read. The surfers will keep trickling in.
It will be interesting to see how Afraid sells over the upcoming months, and if this word-of-mouth campaign I'm attempting to kick-start actually takes off.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Israeli humanitarian organization Save a Child's Heart (SACH) announced this week that a 3-year-old Angolan boy had become the 2,000th foreign child heart patient saved by Israeli doctors.
The child was operated on by the team of doctors at Wolfson Medical Center in Holon, who donate their time to SACH in an effort to build bridges of trust with surrounding nations by helping their children.
SACH and its partner organizations have brought children to the Israeli doctors from 33 countries. But the greatest international attention has been given to those cases that involved children from nations in a state of conflict with the Jewish state, like Iraq.
SACH always brings the parents along with the sick child. In statements to Israeli media, Arab parents who travel to the Jewish state so their child can be saved by Israeli doctors have expressed shock upon learning that tales of cold-blooded Israeli heartlessness are untrue.
In addition to operating on and caring for these children in Israel, SACH is also working with Israeli doctors to improve the quality of pediatric cardiac care in their countries of origin.

Lexus CT200h
Lexus has improved its CT200h hybrid to try and tempt more buyers in the compact executive segment over to petrol/electric power. It's now smarter, safer and better equipped. Jonathan Crouch checks it out
Ten Second Review
If you're seeking a spaciously compact, prestigiously badged premium five-door hatchback, then you're probably thinking diesel power and German badgework. Here's a different way to go, Lexus' much improved first generation CT200h petrol/electric hybrid. The original version of this car needed a little perfecting but it's now a far more credible choice that's classy to own, efficient to run and kinder to the environment.
Hybrid power may be a trendy thing to have in the compact executive segment right now but it certainly isn't a cheap option. You'll need a budget of around £35,000 to £40,000 for the BMW 3 Series or Mercedes C-Class options and even Lexus' own IS300h is a £30,000 car. Hence the appeal of the brand's entry-level CT200h model, which starts from well under £25,000, even if it's well specified. That's possible because this car runs on humbler non-Plug-in Toyota Prius underpinnings - mechanicals which are awarded more of a premium sheen with the adoption of the Lexus badge, especially in this much improved model.
'CT' stands for 'Compact Tourer', Lexus-speak for 'Premium Hatchback', the class of car that sits below the 3 Series and C-Class segment that Lexus attacks with its IS model. Think models like Audi's A3, BMW's 1 Series, Mercedes' A-Class - maybe even Alfa Romeo's Giulietta and you'll get the idea. Cars that are no bigger than something Focus or Astra-sized but sit a world apart when it comes to perceived driveway cred. None of them offer a hybrid option - which is where this Lexus ought to score.
Driving Experience
There are no mechanical changes to this revised CT200h, so the driving experience is much as before. Press the 'Start' button and the virtual silence is very, very different from the ugly, grumbly diesel note delivered by this car's competitors. That's because from start-up to speeds of up to 28mph or for distances of up to a mile and a half, the car (in theory anyway) is supposed to automatically operate in 'EV' mode under electric power alone.
This brings me to the engine which, despite all this talk of electric power, will remain this car's primary source of propulsion in day-to-day use. It's exactly the same 1.8-litre VVTi petrol unit you'll find in Toyota's Prius and contributes a further 99bhp to the 82bhp already delivered by the electric motor, though never at the same time, which is why, slightly confusingly, the total power output of this car is quoted at 134bhp.
Design and Build
Exterior changes to this revised model are relatively minor. The front gille has a smarter mesh pattern, the foglamps now have grey bezels and at the rear, there's a re-shaped bumper and the tail lamps now feature all-LED technlogy and have a wider, sportier look. Go for a top 'Premier' or 'F Sport' model and you get daytime running lights repositioned so as to sit above the single-projector bi-LED headlights.
Inside, the cabin remains one of the classiest in the segment, with its high-quality materials and rich surface textures. The Lexus Premium Navigation System fitted to top variants benefits from a larger 10.3-inch screen and there's a wider range of upholstery choices. Otherwise, things are much as before. We love the cockpit-like feel of the low-set, perfectly-sited driving position and the way all the controls fall neatly to hand and operate with a quality click .The Optitron instrument binnacle is available with an integral 4.2-inch TFT screen, which can be linked to the car's multimedia system and controlled using switches on the steering wheel.
Market and Model
Prices sit in the £23,500 to £31,500 bracket and there's a choice of 'SE', 'SE Plus Pack', 'Luxury', 'F Sport', 'F Sport Premier Pack' and 'Premier' trim levels. The 'F-Sport' version doesn't get any mechanical changes but has been upgraded with performance dampers, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and Lexus Navigation. Even the base 'SE' model features dual-zone air conditioning, 16-inch alloy wheels, rain-sensing wipers, a Drive Mode Select system, a reversing camera, a six speaker audio system and a seven-inch Lexus Media Display infotainment set-up with rotary controller.
Safety-wise, the CT adopts the Lexus Safety System+ package on all versions above 'SE' grade, a set of active safety features that can help prevent or mitigate collisions in a wide range of traffic situations. Its advanced technology features include a Pre-Collision System, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Lane Keep Assist, Automatic High Beam and Road Sign Assist. Otherwise, a 5 star Euro NCAP showing is justified by the inclusion of no fewer than eight airbags, including knee protection for driver and passengers. Plus of course, it goes without saying that the CT has the full complement of electronic braking, stability and traction controls.
Cost of Ownership
Cost of ownership is where the CT200h can really hurt its conventionally-powered rivals. True, you'll need to take the official combined consumption figure of 74.3mpg with a pinch of salt - achievable but not in the real world - but even given that, you shouldn't be disappointed with returns at least the equal of the best diesel competition. Throw in the fact that this is the only premium executive car with automatic transmission to be exempt from the London congestion charge, plus what's almost certain to be a snail-like rate of depreciation and the running cost package looks even more compelling.
The parallel hybrid technology employed here might be fairly conventional - we're on the cusp of a transition to plug-in lithium ion batteries - but that's probably a good thing as it's fully proven and, in any case, protected by a 5 year/60,000 mile warranty. It's certainly good enough to deliver a CO2 emissions figure that, with 16-inch wheels, is rated at 88g/km. That's 20-30g/km better than a comparable Audi A3 2.0 TDI or BMW 118d in manual form and 40-50g/km better if you're looking at those cars as automatics. Plus this Lexus will incur zero road fund licence charges but what's really important is the way it can deliver rock bottom company car tax, with ratings starting from just 17 per cent.
Before this car first arrived, the UK market's provision of hybrid power was limited to compact cars and rather large ones. With this improved sleeker, safer CT200h, Lexus continues to neatly plug the gap in between and on paper, its promised combination of driving fun and eco sensibility is certainly a very tempting one. In practice, this car is somewhat restricted by the limits of its Prius mechanicals but that doesn't stop it delivering a package that will still be compelling to many target buyers. This car adds up. On the balance sheet. And in your driveway.

Dakshin Indian Bistro opened in 2011 on Sawmill Road but has moved to a larger space in the Polaris area. Dakshin has also enlarged its menu. The most notable addition stems from the decision to acquire the rights to advertise and prepare "Paradise" biryanis, named after the Paradise Hotel in Hyderabad, whose recipe for biryani is renowned.
Dakshin Indian Bistro opened in 2011 on Sawmill Road but has moved to a larger space in the Polaris area. Dakshin has also enlarged its menu.
The most notable addition stems from the decision to acquire the rights to advertise and prepare �Paradise� biryanis, named after the Paradise Hotel in Hyderabad, whose recipe for biryani is renowned.
Although Dakshin�s website features the several versions of Paradise biryani, the name appears nowhere on the menu, which apparently is due for a new edition.
According to the servers, the Paradise biryanis can be ordered under three headings for �Dakshin Special Biryani� � chicken ($10.99), lamb or goat ($12.99), or fish or shrimp ($13.99) � each served with basmati rice, the foundation of biryanis.
Anyone wishing a vegetarian version can order the Paradise seasonings with basmati rice, cut green beans, green peas and carrot cubes for $9.99.
The Paradise seasonings are fragrant with curry leaf and hints of cinnamon, cardamom, coriander and cumin, and warm with chili pepper. Sweetness comes from browned onions.
It is one of the most fragrant collections of biryanis in town.
My serving of tandoori chicken ($12) appeared to have been cooked in the tandoor but seemed to have been served well after it had come out of the oven. A small breast piece and a leg were at room temperature and somewhat dry (although well-seasoned).
The grill skillet on which the chicken was delivered wasn�t particularly hot, and most of the vegetables (carrot, celery, onions and potatoes) garnishing the chicken were undercooked.
Curry Hyderabadi ($14 with the chicken option) is a complex and satisfying dish of well-flavored and textured chicken pieces in a curry of sweet onion, garlic, poppy seeds, curry leaf and a blend of compatible spices that includes ginger, chilies, turmeric, sesame and garam masala, with hints of cinnamon, clove and cardamom.
It is a flavor tour de force.
�Dal thadka/tomato pappu� ($11), identified on the menu as a south Indian specialty, features yellow lentils. The fried spices, which include cinnamon, chili, clove, cumin and turmeric, give the dish its nutty flavor. Curry and other leaves are added to the pleasant vegetarian dish.
Navrattan korma ($13) is a mixture of vegetables � carrots, cauliflower, green beans, green peas and potatoes, with little cubes of paneer cheese � that are in a sauce of cashews, light cream and tomato, giving the sauce some sweetness.
No nuts are visible other than the cashew pieces in the creamy sauce; the invisible �nuts and raisins� included in the dish�s description might have been pureed into the creamy sauce, which had an attractive sweetness.
Bagara baigan ($12) is a successful dish of small, round, softly cooked eggplants that are served in a thick sauce made of chili, onion, poppy seeds and tomato, and a mix of spices that balances sweetness with a sharpness reminiscent of tamarind.
Many of the entrees have red or green chilies in them, which have been vibrant without being too hot. Patrons are asked about how much peppery heat they prefer.
Each entree comes with a choice of what Dakshin calls tandoori bread.
The simple �butter� and the �garlic� have been well-executed. A plain version is available. If ordered a la carte, the breads cost $2.

Russell Malone
As part of Blue Note's 60th anniversary gala, Benny Green was invited to record a selection of his favorite tunes from the label's venerable catalog. Green picked eight songs previously recorded by the likes of Horace Silver, Lee Morgan, Joe Henderson, and Dexter Gordon, then he recruited bassist Christian McBride and guitarist Russell Malone. Together, they recorded These Are Soulful Days, a splendid tribute to the glory days of Blue Note, when excellent hard bop musicians ruled the roster. Like the classic albums from the late '50s and early '60s, These Are Soulful Days clocks in at an economical 45 minutes and feels intimate. All eight songs were recorded directly to two-track, giving the music an immediate, vibrant feel. Since Green decided not to choose well-known standards, the songs are fresh, which is only appropriate, since the trio gives performances that are steeped in tradition, yet remain lively and unpredictable. At its best, These Are Soulful Days feels like a lost classic from the Blue Note vaults, and that's the highest praise that can be said about a project like this. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

CAMDEN, N.J. — Camden, a city known for its crime and poverty, is developing a reputation for something positive: an innovative effort to cut health care costs.
An official from President Barack Obama's administration and two members of Congress were among the dignitaries who came to the city Tuesday to celebrate something simple — the opening of a nurse practitioner's office in a building with more than 300 apartments for the elderly and the disabled. The office is the latest step in a citywide effort to cut health care costs.
"Today, we have the opportunity to end a message to the rest of the nation that Camden is leading the way," said U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, a Democrat from New Jersey.
Officials also used Tuesday's event as a chance to praise Obama's health insurance overhaul on its first anniversary. Opponents have heavily criticized the law, and Congressional Republicans are calling for its appeal.
But proponents of the law say it will make possible more community efforts like the one in Camden.
About nine years ago, some health care providers started collecting data on patients in Camden, a city that consistently ranks as one of the nation's poorest.
They eventually got all three hospitals in the city to contribute detailed information, which was used to pinpoint which neighborhoods and even individuals were responsible for the highest medical costs.
The research confirmed what many believed about the health care system: It's badly fragmented and inefficient. And in a place like Camden, patients with no other choices go to emergency rooms for maladies that could be better treated elsewhere.
From January 2002 to June 2008, half the city's residents made annual trips to the emergency room. And the most frequent diagnoses there were head colds, followed by viral infections, sore throats and other relatively minor problems.
What's more, it was a relatively small group of patients who were responsible for many of the costs. Patients from just 6 percent of the city's blocks accounted for 27 percent of emergency room visits and 37 percent of emergency room costs.
The Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers has responded by offering intensive preventative care for the most costly patients. There have been clinics on living with diabetes, and care providers have put residents on diets — and kept up with them. Even a homeless encampment has gotten attention from the doctors and nurses in the group.
The Northgate II building that now houses the nurse practitioner's office is one of the medical cost hotspots, the research found. The researchers spent time learning about the health issues and health care grievances of the residents before recruiting a private company to provide a nurse practitioner, who can be reimbursed at a higher rate under the federal insurance overhaul.
Pilar Perry, who has lived in Northgate II for 18 years, said having medical care in the building will immediately improve the lives of its residents.
"We won't have to wait for hours for the ambulance and hours for the emergency room for ailments like the flu."
And, officials hope, that care will keep patients out of the emergency rooms.
Rick Gilfillan, director of the Center of Innovation in the federal Center of Medicare and Medicaid, said Tuesday that the nation is watching to see whether the Camden initiative controls costs and improves care.
"It became obvious that it was the right thing to do," he said. "The remarkable thing was that nobody had done it before."

How to find your way at Japan Expo
You often feel lost in the festival alleyways? We give you a little help with some means of finding your way!
The basics: the floor map
Don't wait until you're at the festival to get acquainted with the venue! The floor map is online a few weeks before the event:
- On our website, in the Floor Map tab;
- On our mobile app, in the Floor Map section.
From the moment the floor map is online, you can start getting ready and prepare your visit:
- Locate the booths you're interested in;
- Locate the stages hosting the events you're interested in
- Locate the entrances and exit;
- Locate the services you might be needing during the event such as the Info Desk, the ATMs, the nursery…
To find a booth on the map, you have to fight its reference in the exhibitors' list:
- the letters tell where it is lengthwise (A to Z from the bottom upward in hall 5, and A to Z from the top downward in hall 6)
- once you've found the letter, the figures tell you where it is widthwise (from left to right)
On site, paper floor maps are available in self-service and posters are put up everywhere:
- Self-service paper floor maps available at the festival entrances and at the Info Desk, and that you'll keep with you at all times;
- Floor maps put up in the festival alleyways, with labels indicating your location.
Finding your way is easy as ABC: signs
On site, tools are set up to help you find your way:
- From the car park to the entrance, many direction signs and a colored path;
- Inside, direction signs hanging from the ceiling, showing the location of big areas and stages, entrances and the exit.
Follow the landmarks: colors and stars
On all our signs, there are landmarks to help you read them, with colors and stars.
On the signs or on the ground, the colors are a precious guide to find your way at Japan Expo:
- Dedicated colors for each area and stage, to spot them more easily;More information about the colors associated with each stage on this page.
- Carpet paths with colors corresponding to those on the floor map;
- Colored arrows on the direction signs hanging from the ceiling, corresponding the carpet colors.
For example, this arrow tells you to follow the turquoise carpet to go to:
- the exit
- the Nezumi and Také stages
- the Puroresu ring or the Kuri and Azuki stages
- the Sumiré area
- the ATM
- the Info Desk
Look up at the other signs on your way, they will tell you where to turn if necessary.
The floor map will be putting stars in your eyes! And they will help you spot where you are on the map. You don't know where you are? Here's what to do:
- Raise your head.
- Find the closest direction sign.
- Find the stars and read the numbers on it.
- Now you just have to find the same star on the floor map and you'll know exactly where you are!
The staff: ready to help at all times
The festival staff members are always ready to help and guide you! From the moment you exit the train station or car park, they show you the directions to halls 8 (for security checks) and 7 (where the lines are). At the entrance of hall 7, they show you which line to wait in, depending on whether you have a ticket or not, or on the type of your ticket.
Once you're in, the Info Desk staff are always ready to help you find your way or find the booth, stage, or any other place you're looking for. They are also by your side in the festival alleyways, to guide you wherever you are: they're easy to spot as they are wearing big red flags on their backs.

CRANBERRY TWP — An Allegheny County man broke through the front door of a township home early this morning only to find himself facing the barrel of a pistol, police said.
Township officers got to the house in the 200 block of Heston Drive and found suspected burglar Matthew A. Fettis on the floor held at gunpoint by homeowner Joseph Eisel.
Officers promptly arrested Fettis, 27, of Richland Township, who apparently was intoxicated.
District Judge Lewis Stoughton arraigned him on charges of burglary, trespass, criminal mischief and public drunkenness.
He remains in the Butler County Prison $100,00 bail.
Laura Eisel called 911 shortly after 3 a.m. and said that a man had just broken into her home. She reported that her husband was holding the burglar at gunpoint.
Officers went to the house and opened the garage door. Inside, they saw Joseph Eisel pointing a semi-automatic pistol at the suspect, who was "laying in the fetal position" on the floor, police said.
