Long a staple of race bike photography, the disembodied hand really came into its own during the fixie craze, when legions of overzealous fixie owners (in retrospect, was there any other kind of fixie owner?) sought a way to hold their bicycles upright for the obligatory Fixed Gear Gallery photo shoot.
Since then, Internet bicycle photography has evolved, and innovative bicycle owners continue to discover new ways to present bicycles in photographs without, you know, just leaning them on something. Take, for example, this email I received from a reader:
This is how you do a backdrop for a bike sale
Yes, that's a disembodied pair of legs holding up a black shroud, and it's very disconcerting.
By the way, I have very clear memories of shopping for a new road bike in the '90s and going to a shop that sold Kleins, because in the '90s that's what you did--you shopped for Kleins in between grunge concerts and Tae Bo workouts. To this day, whenever I see a Klein, I remember the salesperson who insisted I needed to choose one bicycle over another because it had a better bottom bracket. Not a better frame, not better wheels, not even better shifters. It wasn't even a different bottom bracket interface. (Yes, some Kleins had press-fit bottom brackets in those days, and "Octalink" was probably becoming a thing, but none of the bicycles I was looking at had any of these features.) No, the square taper bottom bracket cartridge itself was theoretically better than the square taper bottom bracket cartridge on a different bicycle, so I needed to base my decision entirely on that.
Obviously I laughed him off, and instead bought the bicycle with better inner tubes.
Here's another email from another reader with a similarly poignant subject line:
From Portland
You know, I often myself riding a cargo bike loaded entirely with bike crap, and it's always sobering to realize you're in a total feedback loop of self-serving bike-dorkery, like the snake eating its own tail:
Actually, "self-serving" isn't really accurate. Using one bike to carry another isn't especially self-serving--unlike asking strangers to buy mountain bikes for you and your family, as forwarded by yet another reader:
HI, we are a family of 4 looking to get back in shape. I always loved mountain biking when younger. I am ready to take it back up and my wife and two children are wanting to as well. Hoping to purchase entry level Trek, Specialized or comparable bikes that are going to last from our local bike shop. We are hoping to raise enough to purchase the bikes and necessary accessories such as helmets. All donations welcome and very much appreciated. Help a family get in shape and spend some much needed quality time together. Thanks for viewing have a great day.
There was some idiot commenting on yesterday's post under the handle "MTBSnob." Maybe he can buy these people some bikes, and then show them how to angle the brake levers.
Whatever they end up with, I only hope they have really good bottom brackets.
In other news, if you live in New York City, you might be interested in attending the following:
This Wednesday night, Vaccaro & White will host a SAFE BIKING IN NEW YORK FORUM. Details below.
RIGHTS & ADVOCACY - A Forum with Steve Vaccaro & Adam White
5BBC Social Meetup
DATE: Wednesday, April 30, 2014
LOCATION: Westbeth Performance Center, Manhattan
Drivers know when they get into an accident they exchange insurance
information. But the growing number of bike riders don't know what to
do if they are in an accident. What should bikers know to protect
That question and other essential information for New York City bikers
will be provided at a forum on Safe Biking in New York on April 30,
6:15 p.m. at the Westbeth Performance Center, 55 Bethune Street,
This actually sounds both useful and important, and I should totally go myself, even though I totally won't. As it is, my basic understanding of my rights as a cyclist in New York City is as follows: people are allowed and indeed encouraged to run me over while I'm riding my bike, so I don't have any "rights" per se. However, if I'm lucky enough not to die and the driver doesn't flee the scene there is a small chance I might be able to get some money out of it.
Also, when I talk to the driver's insurance company (assuming the driver even has insurance), their primary concern will be whether or not I was wearing a helment, even if absolutely nothing happened to my head.
If you end up attending the forum let me know if I've got it right.
Speaking of injury and pain, Team Sky says its riders don't use Tramadol for performance enhancement, which means they probably do:
Team Sky has reiterated its stance on the painkiller Tramadol following reported claims from former rider Michael Barry that he used the drug while racing for the team.
Barry told The Times newspaper that "Tramadol made me feel euphoric, but it's also hard to focus. It kills the pain in your legs, and you can push really hard."
Translation: Tramadol gives you what certain politically incorrect people refer to as "retard strength."
By the way, the patron saint of "retard strength" is Jens Voigt:
Anyway, Tramadol is not on the banned list, and it sounds like "lots" of riders are using it, which makes it the asthma medication of the 21st century:
Tramadol was included on the WADA "monitoring programme" in 2012 for "possible in-competition abuse" and its status is under review, meaning it could be added to the WADA Prohibited List for 2015. WADA has acknowledged that the drugs has been found in lots of anti-doping tests it carries out.
It would also explain a lot of the crashes you see:
It is widely suspected that some teams allow their riders to train and race while using the drug despite the risk it can lead to dizziness and so cause crashes.
In fact, Tramadol use may very well be rife in the amateur ranks as well:
Let's just hope triathletes don't start using this stuff.

text: Back Components of Food If you are trying to make heart-healthy changes to your lifestyle and diet, it is helpful to know some basics about nutrition, starting with the components of food. Facts about calories: You need enough calories to maintain your energy level, but no more than you can burn off. This is called an energy balance. If you take in more calories than you burn, you gain weight. If you take in fewer calories than you burn, you lose weight. If you balance the two, you maintain your weight. Even when you are dieting, however, calories should not be cut back so much that your energy needs are not met. The number of calories you need depends primarily on age, gender, and activity level. Facts about dietary cholesterol: Remember: "cholesterol-free" does not mean "fat-free." Dietary cholesterol is a fat-like substance found in all foods of animal origin: egg yolks, meat, poultry, fish, milk, and milk products. Because our bodies make cholesterol, it is not required in our diets. However, because most people eat foods that contain cholesterol, it is important to avoid excessive amounts. The amount of cholesterol you consume can affect your blood cholesterol levels. Types of fats: Fatty acids are the basic chemical units in fat. They may be saturated, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, or trans fats. These fatty acids differ in their chemical compositions and structures, and in the way in which they affect your blood cholesterol levels, according to the following: Saturated fat: is used by the liver to manufacture cholesterol. has been shown to raise blood cholesterol levels, particularly the LDL or "bad" cholesterol level which can increase your risk of heart attack and stroke. should comprise no more than 10 percent of your daily calorie intake. saturated fat can be found in: meats, butter, cocoa butter, coconut, and palm oils. Polyunsaturated fats: do not appear to raise blood cholesterol levels. examples include: safflower, sunflower, corn, and vegetable oils, and soybean oils. Monounsaturated fats: do not seem to increase bad cholesterol levels and may help boost HDL or "good" cholesterol in the blood. Increased HDL levels have been linked to a lower risk of heart disease. examples include olive and canola oils. Trans fats: by-products of hydrogenation, a chemical process used to change liquid unsaturated fat to a more solid fat. Structurally similar to saturated fat, trans fatty acids may have a great impact on raising total and LDL cholesterol levels. Trans fats should be avoided as much as possible. examples include stick margarine and fats found in commercially prepared cakes, cookies, and snack foods. Total fat intake should be no more than 30 percent of your daily calorie intake. Facts about fats: All fats contain about the same number of calories - teaspoon for teaspoon. There is no low-fat fat. Fat is the most concentrated source of calories, supplying more than twice as many calories per gram as either carbohydrates or proteins. Most people tend to get far too much fat in their diet, which contributes to health problems such as obesity, high blood cholesterol, and heart disease. While coconut and palm oils contain no cholesterol, they are high in saturated fat and should be avoided. Facts about fiber: Fiber is the indigestible portion of food. There are two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber - found in such foods as oat bran and dried beans, can lower blood cholesterol in some people. Insoluble fiber - found in foods such as wheat bran and is known to have many health benefits. While this type of fiber has not been found to lower cholesterol, it is useful in weight control because it creates a feeling of fullness. Facts about sodium: Although salt is the major contributor of sodium in our diets, sodium and salt are not the same, contrary to popular belief. A teaspoon of table salt contains 2,300 milligrams of sodium. Sodium is a mineral needed to maintain body fluids and proper nerve function. It occurs naturally in some foods, but most of the sodium in our diets comes from seasonings and ingredients we add to foods. Although sodium is essential, most of us consume more than we need. In some people, too much sodium in the diet can cause the blood pressure to rise, putting them at risk for heart disease and stroke.

Justin Kan is back with a new startup and a new approach.
Kan was known as the guy who popped up around Silicon Valley with a camera on his hat, live-streaming his life online for all to see. Kan turned that idea into Justin.TV, a Y Combinator-backed startup that became a popular online live video website.The company also spawned two others, Socialcam, a mobile video app, and Twitch.TV, a gaming video site. Meanwhile, Kan, now more experienced after learning how to build his startup on the fly, is an advisor to startups and a part-time venture partner at Y Combinator.
Now he's started a new company called Exec with cofounders Daniel Kan, Kan's brother and former head of sales and business development at UserVoice, and Amir Ghazvinian, a Stanford Masters in Bioinformatics graduate. The Y Combinator-backed company (more on that below) is a mobile app and website designed for people to find others to complete jobs for them in real-time.
Sound like other services like Zaarly, TaskRabbit? Exec is different, Kan says, because all the tasks are designed to be done in real-time. The jobs could be anything from the mundane: buying and delivering coffee; to the practical: buying, assembling and delivering Ikea furniture; to the bizarre: getting gas for a scooter that ran out of gas and driving it to the owner's office (true story). One person requested the planning of Valentine's Day with dinner, flowers and chocolate.
Exec dispatches the job requests to individuals who are nearby, have good ratings and skills in that area. Jobs are designed to pay at least a $25 hourly rate. The requests are sent automatically to the top person on the list, who has a couple of minutes to reply. If he or she doesn't say yes, Exec goes down the line to the next person. The ideas is to find someone really quickly, in the way that car service Uber finds a nearby car quickly. To be able to do jobs on Exec, people have to complete three rounds of interviews, so that they can be trusted, Kan says. While jobs are posted in real-time, people can also schedule task requests ahead of time.
The service has been in beta for about a month in San Francisco. Kan hopes that Exec can provide flexible work for people who are freelancers, writers, designers or just unemployed. "Our goal is to provide flexible work for someone who wants to make extra cash for a few hours per day, or even all day," Kan says.
Exec, which has a four-person team, is in the current crop of Y Combinator companies that will be pitching to investors in March. Kan, however, is also a Y Combinator "part time partner," helping existing new startups. So Paul Graham, cofounder of YC, jokingly tells Kan to "do office hours for yourself" for his startup.
Kan didn't necessarily need to go through Y Combinator again. He has some knowledge of how to run a startup and could probably tap other startups for help. But he says he likes building a company as part of the incubator. "I think it's such a great environment for founders," Kan says. "I want my cofounders to go through it. Also there's an immense focus with three months working on a product and not being distracted... And there's nothing more fun than working with other startups."
Now that he's got some more experience, Kan says he's taken one lesson, by just focusing on the things that are really important for the company and deferring decisions on everything else. This enables the company to move faster. With Justin.TV Kan and his team generally figured things out as they went along. He remembers an hours-long Justin.TV argument about whether to include "time stamps" in the chat window. To simplify things, Exec has one person in charge of each part of the company and that person is in charge of just building it. One person is on the iPhone app, another is in charge of operations and Kan developed the back-end technology. This time Kan is trying to be more pragmatic and building as few features for the service as possible and trying to make each one great for customers' experiences. "Our focus is customer experience. That's it. Everything else is secondary."

Do they still offer the early bird special on Tuesdays?
- L.G. HudsonAugust 19, 2010 at 3:39 PM
I actually ate there for lunch today. I had the seafood brodetto. My stomach has been gargling for the last half-hour. The crispy bread was perfect touch for dipping. I guess that's a plus...ReplyDelete
They really should offer Maalox in the washrooms there, though. It sounds like I'm not the only one suffering with unbearable indigestion.
- Vik RadicsAugust 19, 2010 at 3:49 PM
I don't remember them ever having an early bird special. Hmm...ReplyDelete
It's a shame they aren't in Canada anymore. I enjoyed the capellini the last time I was visiting in the US. I didn't have any problems digesting the food either. I guess everyone's body reacts differently.
I feel like everyone who has lived in Ohio has endured a brief stint at the Olive Garden. It some ways it's sort of like Cheers--everybody knows your name! Okay, maybe not. But you get point.ReplyDelete
PS- I dig the chambray watch strap, also.
Yeah, I don't remember an early bird special either. I used to work at the Colorado Springs location years ago. Surprisingly good tips.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 19, 2010 at 4:28 PM
Does anyone else find dessert after a heavy Italian meal to be a bit much? It would explain why half of America is overweight, though.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 19, 2010 at 4:44 PM
I find it surprising that people would tip at a place with free breadsticks.ReplyDelete
btw- stay away from the Capellini di Mare. it freaking tore me up!
I eat at the Clovis, CA location all the time. However, I rarely order any pasta dishes. Instead I usually opt for a pork or beef entree. The Pork Milanese is unreal, and is also pretty nutritious -- for a chain restaurant.ReplyDelete
I agree with Anon @ 4:28. Unless you're a football player, who would have the appetite to chow down on a cheesecake after a heavy meal? Ridiculous!
- AnonymousAugust 19, 2010 at 4:52 PM
There's an early bird special?!!?!ReplyDelete

The ironic thing is that the J. Crew closest to me in front of an Olive Garden. Irony at its best.ReplyDelete
I remember years ago asking the waiter if they had tiramisu and he just looked at me as if I was speaking Chinese. Clearly fake Italian restaurants have no idea what classic Italian desserts are.ReplyDelete
- Vik RadicsAugust 19, 2010 at 5:40 PM
I'm not even sure if ALL Olive Garden locations offer unlimited salad and bread anymore. I noticed that the last time I went. It's probably a state-by-state decision. Anyone have the 411 on that?ReplyDelete
10 bucks says Lawrence hits an Olive Garden tonight in Jersey.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 19, 2010 at 5:55 PM
ill take that bet.ReplyDelete
Vik - The Lakeland, FL location still has unlimited salad and bread. In fact, I'm pretty sure all the Orlando, FL locations do.ReplyDelete
Lawrence - You really should hit up the Olive Garden PR people. This might be another avenue for you to explore.
I actually think some of the locations do offer an early bird special. If you're concerned, I would just call ahead of time to find out. There is something comforting eating amongst a sea of geriatrics.ReplyDelete
About two months ago, I had undergone a devastating breakup with my ex. On the drive back to Memphis, I debated whether or not I was going to head back to try and reconcile. Fortunately, before I turned the wheels around, I noticed a local service station and some food chains off of the highway. I decided to pull over, mostly to collect my thoughts. While there, I figured I could use a drink (even if it was just one) so I popped into the bar area of a Chili's. However, due to the noise and atmosphere, I decided to venture across the street to a little neighborhood joint: Olive Garden.ReplyDelete
After drowning my sorrows in a chianti three meat pasta dish, and washing it down with some Moscato, I noticed that the woman who was sitting directly across from me was checking me out (or so I thought). So, in my desperate state of affairs, I approached her only to be confronted by her burly father, who grabbed me by the shoulder and asked his daughter if I was harassing her. I figured she would have stood up for me, considering she made the first contact, but this was not the case. Needless to say, I was politely asked to leave the restaurant after paying for my dinner.
On my way back to my car, I noticed that I had a missed call and a message on my cell . As I proceeded to check the message, I was pleasantly reminded that the girl that had just been checking me out was actually a friend of my ex's, who recognized my face from a facebook picture and told her what I did. I still have not spoken to my ex since.
While this was one of the worst experiences of my life, I will always remember that first bite of warm, saucy penne going down my throat. Absolutely delicious!
I disagree with Anon @ 4:28 and Andy. If you split the dessert (sorry for using the word spilt, Billy!) you should be fine.ReplyDelete

It comes as no surprise that the readers of Sartorially Inclined care to debate the merits of a shitty chain restaurant. Although I am surprised no one is inquiring about a pasta sale. Clowns.ReplyDelete

FINALLY someone here is funny. Of course it's not L.A.S who most likely has to eat at Olive Garden due to lack of choices in whatever shit suburb he resides in.ReplyDelete

You should maybe take a long hard look in the mirror, or just relax with a delicious Warm Apple Crostata dessert from the Olive Garden. That rich vanilla cream and caramelized almond biscotti crumble just may be able to pry the stick from your backside.

That dude who claims to fuck Steve's mom in her basement really should just chill out and try one of Olive Garden's Triple Chocolate Strata Tortas. That dark chocolate ganache topping can calm even the most cranky of mom humping trolls.ReplyDelete

Back to the watchbands, I'm not so sure about them for myself, but I think my girlfriend would really like the railroad stripe one. I did however pick up the timex 1600 watch, I really like it a lot. I know $200 is steep for a timex, but I've been to every target around and haven't seen a watch nearly this nice. I especially like it with the Bali blue nylon watchband.ReplyDelete

The Warm Apple Crostata is definitely a crowd pleaser. No doubt.ReplyDelete
I think I died of laughing at the comments. Clearly one person under common names of Steve, Billy, Rob, Chris, Peter has way too much time in their hands & posting their sick obsession with Olive Garden.ReplyDelete

6 Step Mold Remediation Process in Westwood, MA
Mold remediation is the process of addressing, cleaning, removing and bringing large concentrations of mold spores in Westwood homes and businesses back to clean and normal levels. By properly addressing the causes of a mold outbreak, remediation prevents the same problem from happening again.
1. Call MoldRemediation.io
MoldRemediation.io connects homeowners and businesses with the best certified Westwood mold removal companies. MoldRemediation.io groups understand the science behind mold growth, cleanup, remediation and removal with the expertise to address any type of mold issue you may be confronted with.
2. Mold Inspection
Mold inspections and assessments are the first step of mold remediation. Properties are searched meticulously for any visible signs of mold. Air samples are also taken by Westwood remediation experts to determine the type and toxicity of the mold. These samples show what the spore count is, which is an indicating factor for level of contamination.
3. Mold Containment
Securing, sealing and containing Westwood properties with mold spores prevents the spread into any other areas. There are a number of ways to contain mold. Certain containment areas include physical barriers with negative air chambers and air pressure. All fans, air conditioners and heaters are turned off to prevent mold spores from multiplying.
4. Air Filtration
Negative air machines with high efficiency particulate air filtration (HEPA) are sealed to an opening in the containment area to allow proper ventilation and filtration. As a result, mold spores and other contaminants are unable to escape and affect other parts of your Westwood property during cleanup. Once the air filter is properly secured to the contentment area, we are ready for mold cleanup.
5. Mold Cleanup
The cleanup process involves removing the mold problem while limiting exposure. The method of cleanup depends on the extent of the problem and where the mold is growing. Level 1 mold is typically cleaned using a damp cloth or mop with a detergent solution, whereas Level 2 requires a HEPA vacuum to be used on all surfaces prior to cleaning with a damp cloth or mop with detergent. The mold and residue is then disposed of using a double-bag and tie closed.
6. Sanitization
Once mold remediation in your Westwood home or business is complete, the sanitization process begins. Sanitization involves natural and environmentally friendly techniques to clean the indoor air quality back to normal levels, while also deodorizing materials and belongings. MoldRemediation.io recommends providing natural and holistic solutions during sanitation.

Westwood, MA Mold Remediation FAQ
There's a lot to consider when searching for reputable and reliable mold remediation group in Westwood. For specific questions regarding your unique circumstances please call our mold experts now at (877) 349-1231.
Mold remediation in Westwood involves the general removal, disinfection, and overall cleansing of mold-infected structures. The process entails the use of remediation equipment and methods of complete removal for the prevention of future mold growth.
Westwood home owners insurance covers mold damage IF a "covered peril" caused it. Otherwise, the insurance company may not.
Due to the fact that all policies are different and damage may be left to interpretation by an inspector, you should refer to your agent for more insight as to what your policy covers.
Depending on the size and scope of the mold damage, remediation can take anywhere from a day to 3 weeks (sometimes more). Remember, the process eliminates mold completely and surfaces are treated so as not to allow growth in the future.
Mold growth thrives in Westwood properties where moisture and organic materials are found. Often leaky pipes, indoor humidity, and flooding can trigger growth.
The cost of your remediation project will depend on the extent of damage in your Westwood property. Please contact MoldRemediation.io today to request an accurate estimate.
There are certain circumstances where you can clean mold yourself. A good baseline is if you think the mold is completely visible and less than 10 sq. ft., you can probably consider a DIY solution.
Yes! Mold produces irritants, allergens, and sometimes toxic substances that can cause respiratory problems. Although you may not think you have a serious mold problem, it is very important at least get it checked out.
Unfortunately, mold can come back after back after remediation. This is usually a result of a poor remediation job that does not address the root or cause of the mold problem. With MoldRemediation.io, our certified contractors repair the underlying causes of infestation to minimize the chances of mold coming back.

I'm not a veteran knitter of baby hats, and I don't have Abigail here to try things on, so for sizing I cross-checked seven or eight books and two online sources. I am sure they must all be cahoots to mess with my mind. Abigail's head cannot possibly be as big as they suggest. The bottom of half of her is so tiny and cuddly, but apparently she has a head like a bowling ball.
I know, I know. Babies have big heads. But as big as all that? I'm amazed Susan and Phil don't have to prop her up with two sticks or something.
Anyhow, I made this for my niece's apparently gigantic head.
I'm not the first (hell, I'm not even the twentieth) person to make up a snowman baby hat, but I did try to put some little personal touches into mine.
It's too cold in Maine for even a snowman to cavort in the raw, so I started the fellow off with a handsome red scarf. About halfway up the face, I realized the scarf ought to have a hat, so I knit a hat onto the hat.
A hat on a hat. If you ask me, every well-dressed baby ought to have a touch of the surreal in her wardrobe. If you ask others, it's probably a good thing I have no children of my own.
Around the back, to help keep the neck warm, are the "ends" of the scarf.
All the yarn came out of my stash, thus:
- The red and white are Berroco Ultra Alpaca left over from the Littlest Democrat Sweater.
- The black is the end of a ball of some mystery worsted.
- The mouth* is a scrap of Cleckheaton merino.
- The carrot nose is Lamb's Pride worsted that must have spontaneously generated in my stash cupboard. I cannot for the life of me imagine what I would ever purchase bright orange Lamb's Pride in aid of. I'm quite certain it wasn't a gift. And yet, I have two full skeins of it.
Alrighty, then. Back to work on the _____ and the _____ for _____ and _____. How's your holiday knitting coming along?
*The mouth was going to be made of coal, too, until I worked the eyes and discovered first-hand what a pain in the gazoo it is to knit bobbles.

Pope Benedict's Jewish Legacy Tarnished By Ties to Holocaust Deniers
Pope Benedict was cheered by conservatives for trying to reaffirm traditional Catholic identity but liberals accused him of turning back the clock on reforms and hurting dialogue with Muslims, Jews and other Christians.
The 85-year-old German-born pontiff announced on Monday he would step down at the end of the month because of the effects of old age meant he was unable to complete his ministry. It was a decision that stunned Church officials and Catholics around the world, but one that he had hinted at in the past.
Benedict's relations with Jews had highs and lows.
Jews were offended by his decision to allow a wider use of the old-style Latin Mass and missal, which included a prayer for the conversion of the Jews.
Jews took offence again in December 2009 when he re-started the process putting his wartime predecessor Pius XII, accused by some Jews of turning a blind eye to the Holocaust, back on the road to sainthood after a two-year pause for reflection.
The Jewish world, as well as many Catholics, were outraged after Benedict lifted the excommunication of four traditionalist bishops, including one who openly denied the Holocaust.
However in 2011, he won acclaim by personally exonerating Jews of allegations they were responsible for Christ's death, repudiating the concept of collective Jewish guilt that haunted Christian-Jewish relations for centuries.
The first German pope for 1,000 years, Benedict confronted his country's past when he visited the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz.
Calling himself "a son of Germany," he prayed and asked why God was silent when 1.5 million victims, most of them Jews, died there during World War Two.
Born Joseph Ratzinger, he served in the Hitler Youth during World War II when membership was compulsory. He was never a member of the Nazi party and his family opposed Adolf Hitler's regime.
"Neither Ratzinger nor any member of his family was a National Socialist," John Allen, a leading Church expert, wrote in a biography.
But his trip to Germany also prompted the first major crisis of his pontificate. In a university lecture he quoted a 14th century Byzantine emperor as saying Islam had only brought evil to the world and that it was spread by the sword.
After protests that included attacks on churches in the Middle East and the killing of a nun in Somalia, the pope said he regretted any misunderstanding the speech caused.
In a move that was widely seen as conciliatory, he made a historic trip to predominantly Muslim Turkey in 2006 and prayed in Istanbul's Blue Mosque with the city's grand mufti. Benedict committed himself to Christian unity but other religions criticised him in 2007 when he approved a document that re-stated the Vatican position that all other Christian denominations apart from Catholicism were not full churches of Jesus Christ.
He confirmed his conservative view of other religions in 2011, when an inter-faith meeting in Assisi, Italy did not include the simultaneous common prayer that was held when John Paul initiated the gatherings in 1986.
At the same meeting however, he meekly acknowledged "with great shame" that Christianity had used force in its long history as he joined other religious leaders in condemning violence and terrorism in God's name.
In 2007 Benedict made appointed a Polish bishop who once spied for communist police. The bishop had to stand down.
Benedict made a successful trip to the United States in 2008. He apologised for the sexual abuse scandal, promised that paedophile priests would go, and comforted abuse victims.
But 2009 became an annus horribilis for the pope as he made one misstep after another.
The pope prompted international outrage again in March of 2009, when he told reporters on a plane taking him to Africa and the use of condoms in the fight against AIDS only worsened the problems.
At the Vatican, he preferred to appoint men he trusted blindly and some of his early appointments were controversial.
He chose Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, who had worked with him for years in the Vatican's doctrinal office, to be Secretary of State even though Bertone had no diplomatic experience.
One of the themes he often returned to was the threat of relativism, rejecting the concept that moral values are not absolute but relative to those holding them.
"We are moving towards a dictatorship of relativism, which does not recognise anything as definitive and has as its highest value one's own ego and one's own desires," he said in a homily at John Paul's funeral, which many believed convinced his brother cardinals to vote for him in the conclave that followed.
His critics saw many of his actions as attempts to turn back the clock on reforms enacted by the 1962-1965 Second Vatican Council, which modernised the Church and encouraged inter-religious dialogue.
He made it easier for married Anglican priests, upset that their church was becoming too liberal, to convert to Catholicism.
Benedict wrote three encyclicals – the most important form of papal document. His first, "Deus Caritas Est" (God is Love) in 2006, was about the various concepts of love, both erotic and spiritual.
The 2007 "Spe Salvi" (Saved by Hope), was an attack on atheism and an appeal to a pessimistic world to find strength in Christian hope. The 2009 Caritas in Veritate (Charity in Truth), called or a re-think of the way the world economy is run.
Under the German's meek demeanour lay a steely intellect ready to dissect theological works for their dogmatic purity and debate fiercely against dissenters.
Ratzinger first gained attention as a liberal theological adviser at the Second Vatican Council.
However, the Marxism and atheism of the 1968 student protests across Europe prompted him to become more conservative to defend the faith against growing secularism.
After stints as a theology professor and then archbishop of Munich, Ratzinger was appointed head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), the successor office to the Inquisition, in 1981.
He and Pope John Paul agreed that traditionally sound doctrine and theology had to be restored in the Church after a period of experimentation.
In the CDF office, Ratzinger first turned his attention to the "liberation theology" popular in Latin America, and drew criticism for his severity in ordering the one-year silencing in 1985 of Brazilian friar Leonardo Boff, whose writings were attacked for using Marxist ideas.
Ratzinger issued a firm Vatican denunciation of homosexuality and gay marriage in 1986.
He brought pressure in the 1990s against theologians, mostly in Asia, who saw non-Christian religions as part of God's plan for humanity.
A 2004 document sternly denounced "radical feminism" as an ideology that undermined the family and obscured the natural differences between men and women.
His combative side came out in 2000 in a dispute over a CDF document entitled Dominus Iesus. Aimed at restating the primacy of the Roman Catholic Church against the more inclusive views in Asia, it branded other Christian denominations as deficient or not quite real churches.
Anglican, Lutheran and other Protestant churches which had been in ecumenical dialogue with Rome for years were shocked. They were further upset when Ratzinger dismissed protests from Lutherans as "absurd".
The son of a police chief, he was born in Marktl am Inn in Bavaria, southern Germany, in 1927.
In 2002, he became dean of the College of Cardinals which elected him pontiff three years later.
Benedict enjoyed relatively good health most of his life but the first sign that he was slowing down came in October 2011, when he began using a wheeled platform to move up the main aisle of St. Peter's Basilica.
In a book in 2010, he said he would not hesitate to become the first pontiff to resign willingly in more than 700 years if he felt himself no longer able, "physically, psychologically and spiritually" to run the Catholic Church
Before he was elected pope, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was known as "God's rottweiler" because of his stern stand on theological issues. But it became clear that not only did he not bite, but he barely even barked.
Despite great reverence for his charismatic, globe-trotting predecessor – whom he put on the fast track to sainthood and beatified in 2011 – aides said he was determined not to change his quiet manners to imitate John Paul's style.
A professorial type who relaxed by playing the piano, Benedict sought to show the world the gentler side of the man who had been the Vatican's chief doctrinal enforcer for nearly a quarter of a century.
But child abuse scandals hounded most of his papacy. He ordered an official inquiry into abuse in Ireland, which led to the resignation of several bishops. But the Vatican's relations with once Catholic Ireland plummeted during his papacy, to the point that Dublin closed its embassy to the Holy See in 2011.
Victims demanded that he be investigated by the International Criminal Court but the Vatican said he could not be held responsible for the crimes of others.
Scandal closer to home hit in 2012 when the pontiff's butler was s found to be the source of leaked documents alleging corruption in the Vatican's business dealings, causing an international furore.

Check out the Ring Sizing Guide to find your ring size.
Platinum Plating:
Platinum can be used as a finish coating over sterling silver or copper alloys. Its bright, pure luster enhances the brilliance of gemstones and does not discolor or oxidize. Platinum plating is also characterized by its good resistance to surface abrasion, making jewelry pieces more durable against everyday and long-term wear. Over time, platinum plating will wear off and therefore will require re-plating.
To care for your plated jewelry items:
On the Mohs Scale, which measures the hardness of minerals, cubic zirconia is an 8.0 to 8.5. It is important to understand that hardness is not necessarily related to durability. Even though diamond is the hardest mineral (10.0 on the Mohs Scale), it can still be chipped or broken.
The only ways to tell the difference between cubic zirconia and diamond are by use of a thermal probe, by weighing the loose stone or by microscopic examination of surface features and inclusions. Cubic zirconia weighs approximately 65% more than diamond. Therefore, while a 6.25 mm round diamond weighs about 1.00 carat, the same size cubic zirconia weighs about 1.65 carats. If you know the weight of a cubic zirconia, you can figure out the diamond weight equivalent by multiplying the cubic zirconia weight by 0.6, or 60%.
Few natural diamonds on the market today are perfectly cut, and those that are cost much more than the usual diamond. Unleashing the fire, beauty and brilliance of a stone depends on its precise cut. Simulated diamonds are an excellent balance between quality, beauty and price.
Brilliance: The white light leaving a jewel, traveling upward, which is visible to the eye. Brilliance is sometimes referred to as "sparkle."
Dispersion: Flashes of rainbow colors. Also called "fire."
Hardness: Resistance to scratching. The higher the number, the more resistant.
Luster: The shininess of a jewel.
Toughness: Resistance to breakage.
Created or Simulated Gemstones: How are created or simulated gemstones different from natural gemstones? Natural gems are created by the forces of nature and must be discovered, usually by digging in the ground or sifting through a riverbed. When these stones are created in a laboratory, they are called created, simulated or synthetic gemstones.
The purpose of creating gemstones in a laboratory isn't necessarily to reduce the cost, but also to produce larger, more perfectly consistent stones. Created or simulated gems can be made of any material. Synthetic gems, however, share virtually all chemical, optical and physical characteristics of their natural mineral counterparts.
Austrian Crystals: These are known for their excellent reflective quality and prismatic brilliance. This man-made crystal is created using natural minerals and quartz sand, which are then heated and slowly cooled using a process similar to that of creating hand-blown glass. This process creates an end product that can be fashioned into a beautiful crystal.
A special machine is used to create a highly faceted crystal. The crystals are cut in various directions, which allows for excellent light refraction, exceptional brilliance and unsurpassed color quality at an affordable price.
Today Swarovski® is one of the largest suppliers of high-end crystals. In the late 1800s, Daniel Swarovski invented a machine to cut crystal with extreme precision. He patented his technique and to this day, only select Swarovski family members and employees have unrestricted access to the production facility that creates these crystals. They are used to decorate everything from stilettos and sculptures, to chandeliers, jewelry and clothing.

RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. — President Barack Obama on Saturday signed separate measures into law to lift the federal debt limit and restore benefits that had been cut for younger military retirees.
Obama signed the bills during a weekend golf vacation in Southern California.
The debt limit measure allows the government to borrow money to pay its bills, such as Social Security benefits and federal salaries. Failure to pass the measure, which the Senate passed 67-31 earlier this week and sent to Obama for his signature, most likely would have sent the stock market into a nosedive.
The Treasury Department is now free to borrow regularly through March 15, 2015, meaning lawmakers won't have to revisit the issue until a new Congress is sworn in after the November elections.
Separate legislation passed in December would have held annual cost-of-living increases for veterans age 62 and younger to 1 percentage point below the rate of inflation, beginning in 2015. The measure was designed to hold the line on the soaring cost of government benefit programs, which have largely escaped trillions of dollars in deficit cuts over the past three years.
The cuts were enacted less than two months ago, with a projected savings to the government of $7 billion over a decade. Veterans groups and some lawmakers said the cut was a mistake, and they began campaigning to have the benefits restored.
The pensions go to veterans who retire after 20 years of service, regardless of their age. Nearly 2 million retirees currently are eligible, including about 840,000 under age 62, according to the Pentagon.
For a sergeant first class who leaves the service at age 42 after two decades, the bill passed in December would have meant an estimated $72,000 in reduced pension payments.
Quick action by lawmakers on this year's debt limit bill stands in contrast to lengthy showdowns in 2012 and last fall, when Republicans sought to use the must-pass bill as leverage to win concessions from Obama. They succeeded in 2011, winning about $2 trillion in spending cuts. But Obama has been unwilling to negotiate over the debt limit since his re-election in 2012.
The bill he signed Saturday is the third consecutive debt measure to pass Congress without concessions from the White House.
Republicans also have been less confrontational since a 16-day partial government shutdown last October sent the party's poll numbers skidding.
Both bills were flown out to Obama in California late Friday night, a White House aide said.
