- Stereo Conversion BT-1 Bluetooth Adapter
Product Description
Aurora Design provides the only fully integrated Bluetooth solution for classic vehicles and hot rods!
While anyone can buy a cheap off-the-shelf Bluetooth solution with its hanging cords, cigarette lighter adapters (sorry all you 6 volt and 12 volt positive ground guys are just out of luck) and a microphone and buttons that are hard to access (how about those cars with the cigarette lighter in the ash tray), Aurora Design offers a fully integrated solution with unrivaled features.
The BT-1 was designed from the ground up to fully integrate with the FMR-1 AM/FM receiver offering features and performance that can't be matched in cheap off-the-shelf products. Fully integrated into the radio, there's nothing for you to fumble with or cords you have to connect to use.
A blue LED in the radio dial proudly indicates the Bluetooth status just like a modern car. When a call comes in, the radio softly mutes and the call comes up. The LED on the FMR-1 will change color to let you know you are in the Bluetooth mode. No wasting the radio's Auxiliary input on a Bluetooth dongle. No fumbling for knobs or switches to select the Bluetooth input. No fumbling for little buttons on the adapter or menus on your phone. No switching back to the radio in the middle of a phone call if no one is talking for a few seconds, or when playing streaming audio if it goes quiet. The FMR-1 and the BT-1 talk to each other to keep in perfect harmony, just like a modern Bluetooth equipped car.
The microphone on the BT-1 is placeable anywhere in the car for best performance. Rather than having your microphone down around your feet, or in your ashtray, wherever your cigarette lighter happens to be, the BT-1's microphone comes with a 9.8' (3m) cord so it can be place in the best spot for your car. Notice on most modern cars with hands-free operation, the microphone is mounted on the headliner right behind the windshield. With the BT-1's microphone this can also be accomplished. Don't try this with an aftermarket solution unless your cigarette lighter happens to be in your headliner!
Controlling streaming audio playback is just as easy. Just as you would tune the radio to a different channel to hear different music, by simply tuning the radio up or down while streaming, the BT-1 will skip to the next/previous song. No little buttons or menus to fumble with, just use the same controls on your radio you normally use!
No other product can boast the easy of use, performance and features of the BT-1. Of course you can add any old off-the-shelf Bluetooth adapter to the FMR-1... but with the BT-1 available, why would you ever want to?

Residents gather for breathe easy
Growing concern over smoking in public areas has brought many Cooper County residents together to join a cooperative effort to form Boonville's Breathe Easy. A community event was held Tuesday evening at the Cooper County Public Health Center to discuss smoking issues within the community.
The topic of the evening focused on second hand smoke (SHS) and the effects it has on non-smokers. A power point presentation was given by Kim Weimholt to give people a better idea. According to the presentation SHS, is composed of over 7,000 chemicals, including hundreds that are toxic and 69 that cause cancer. It stated 9,500 people die each year from smoking, 900 being non-smokers who are subjected to the presence of SHS. According to the Surgeon General, a half an hour exposer to SHS will cause heart damage similar to that of a regular smoker.
The presentation then dove into the effects on children, which included an increased risk of chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, allergies, asthma and deaths from accidental fires caused by smoking. Furthermore, infants who are subject to SHS are more likely to die from SIDS. According to Weimholt SHS causes 1,800 early births in Missouri each year.
An open discussion followed the presentation on the effects and effort in proposing a public smoke free environment in Boonville. The issues revolved around the effects on businesses. Evidence was brought forward that stated business increased in some locations because it brought more of a family-like atmosphere to the location.
Cooper County Public Health Department Administrator Melanie Hein said there are still many places in town that allow smoking, including the bowling alley, many restaurants and the Isle of Capri Casino. She told of her personal experiences with her child and the ability to take her child to a safe environment to participate in activities without the worry of SHS.
Many Missouri cities have passed ordinances banning smoking in public places such as Columbia and Jefferson City. The talk also focused on the issues the youth dealing with in regards to smoking.
Two Pilot Grove students, Alex Cooper and Luke Schuster, both members of an organization known as Smokebusters, talked to the attendees about the problems of smoking in the youth.
Smokebusters, which was developed in 1999 by the Northeast Missouri Cancer Control Coalition to empower youth to take action to reduce tobacco use
and exposure to secondhand smoke. It evolved into a three year program with each year representing a graduation to higher-level achievement. The program addresses tobacco-use prevention in schools, homes and communities by training groups of 8 - 12 grade students to educate other students in the classroom and adults in the community. The objective is to seek environmental and policy changes to reduce tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke.
Cooper and Schuster presented some pictures using Central Missouri Community Action's Photo Voice Program.
"The goal of CMCA's Photovoice project is to give a voice to children in order to empower them to make changes in their local communities. CMCA originally centered the Photovoice Project around poverty related issues. (i.e.meeting basic needs, etc.). However, in theory you can do a PhotoVoice project around any social issue," CMCA's Evan Melkersman said.
Cooper County Hospital CEO Alan Waldo also presented information on the direction hospitals are taking to combat SHS including banning all smoking near doors where people enter. He said when the smell subsides, many of the chemicals are still left behind for people to inhale.

QNAP TS-509 Pro Turbo NAS Review
Computer storage may be considered one of those items that people tend to not think much about until you either run out of space or you suffer a catastrophic failure and realize you just lost all your important files. Or perhaps you're looking to added extra space to share files among different computers or stream media such as music and videos. Home users are not the only ones faced with the challenge of finding a good solution for sharing and protecting files. Home office and small business owners are also faced with challenges,especially when it comes to increasing requirements for storing and archiving data and making sure files are located in an easily accessible and safe location.
Network attached storage is a way to address all these concerns, but it's not simply a matter of buying something in a box that has 'NAS' plastered on it somewhere. There are a myriad of network-enabled products available these days ranging from single-drive enclosures to multi-bay servers holding eight or more drives. As the market becomes more crowded each manufacturer must distinguish itself in terms of performance and features. Shopping for a NAS can be confusing for the uninitiated, but at the very least one should look for different RAID level support and the ability to easily set up and administer the server. If you are a business looking for additional storage, then support for different operating systems, easy user administration and the ability to handle multiple users simultaneously are a must.
QNAP Systems Inc. is a relatively young company, having been founded in Taiwan in 2004. Billing themselves as the "Quality Network Appliance Provider" (now you know where the got the name QNAP), the company is dedicated to providing network storage for the home, small office and corporate markets as well as specialized products for video recording surveillance applications. Today we're looking at the QNAP TS-509 Pro 5-bay NAS server to see how it meets those needs.
Closer Look:
The TS-509 shipped in a heavy corrugated box that protected the contents and arrived without damage. Extracting the server from the outer box revealed a box larger than I expected until I remembered this is a 5-bay unit. The first thing I noticed was a crumpled corner as if someone had dropped the box before packaging it for shipping. The front of the box features a picture of the NAS unit along with a list of major product features. Also prominently displayed on the front of box is a graphic touting the 1.6GHz Intel processor and 1GB DDRII memory in the server. Switching around to the back of the box you can get quite an education on the features and how the work accompanied by graphics explaining such features as RAID capacity expansion and RAID level migration. QNAP expounds upon the features that would most appeal to a business user looking for functionality and ways to protect and backup important files. The third picture in the group below is of the side panel where all the features are listing in great detail. You could spend enough time reading through these that your arms will certainly tire of holding the box before you are done. You can also get a better look at the crumple zone on the upper right corner of the box. Finally, the obverse side panel lists features in French, German, Italian and Spanish in case English is not your mother tongue.
It's time to open the box and hope that there's no damage to the unit. With the box open and the flaps flaps folded back, you can get an idea of how well-protected the unit is. You can see the damaged corner on the upper right hand side, but there is a dead space in the interior of the box formed by the closed cell foam inserts that encase the server and protect it during shipping. In this case they did their job well as there was no damage. The smaller brown box you see on top in the middle contains all the accessories. Once the unit is all the way out and the accessories box removed you can see what a good job the package designers did in ensuring the server would have a safe journey during shipping. The accessories box contains all the goodies you'll need to install the hard drives and hook things up. There is a power cord and Cat5e Ethernet cable along with a set of hard drive mounting screws and a pair of keys to lock the hard drive trays. You'll notice there is no power brick as the TS-509 has an internal power supply. Also included is some product literature, a multi-language quick install guide and an installation CD.
Once the unit is removed from the protective foam you can see the unit is also wrapped in plastic to further protect it form any scratches or scrapes. Let's get this thing unwrapped and finally see what it looks like. Checking out the front of the TS-509 Pro you can see the five hard drives bays taking up most of the space on the front of the case. At the top next to the QNAP logo is a 2-line LCD status display. Down the left side are a pair of buttons for the power and one touch copy function along with a series of LED indicators. The LEDs are used for hard drive activity, LAN connectivity and overall status of the server. On the lower left is a USB 2.0 port for connecting a flash drive or an external storage device. Looking at the unit at an angle shows the gray matte finish on the metal sides of the case. Moving to the back of the case shows quit a few connections. On the right side below the QNAP label is an eSATA connector. Below that are a pair of Gigabit LAN ports along with four USB 2.0 connections. Directly below are two additional ports, an RS-232 and a VGA port both covered by plastic caps. Both ports are reserved for maintenance purposes. Moving on around there is a small fan for the built in power supply and an AC power connection. That just leaves us with the temperature-controlled 120mm fan that occupies most of the space on the rear panel. Checking out the bottom of case reveals four rubber feet to keep the unit stable and to allow you to stack the unit vertically.

and tell me ur idea of them and plz comment how much could their speed get??
because theyre like funny and dum....
80-100 mph max?
youre insane. Old cars had a crazy style that almost no car today could match until the recent revival of modern day muscle and pony cars. Everything's just round and bland...
until now!!!
do u mean that they r faster than this time cars or wut ?_?
Base V8 HP is rumored to be around 400 HP.
100 mph in 4th gear ;D
haha jk
Barrelchest Anchor!
if there were no old cars then we wouldnt have cars at all they are the root of the designs of the cars now and also the basis of all the techno that comes into a car.
we learned that old cars werent safe so... we made safer cars...
we learned they were too slow... thus we made faster cars and goes on...
but basically in my opinion old cars should be respected cause without them... our cars right now would suck so badly
Having fun after midterms!
Old cars during the late 60's up to the early 80's aren't that bad. They're look cool, like the Mustang, Torino, TransAm, Camaro, and Trueno.
I agree with akumono, imagine without your "so-called" ugly old cars (which I do not agree) we would not have the cars we have now instead we would be having those ugly old now...
Anyone of you guys heard of the German V W Kubelwagen? I like that WW 2 relic well it's more of a jeep than a car but I like it...
plus this thing has an amphibious model too!!! :D
(the kubewagen)
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!!!

Chevrolette Corvette "Stingray" (1967) Roadster
The 1967 roadster model was the favorite of most afficionados, and is also my personal favorite. Don't underestimate the engines of this time. They were demons, peaking in at close to 400bhp (depending on the model you got), with speeds that go well over 100mph.
In fact, many cars during this time could go at speeds well over the limit these days. Reason? Not that many cars on the road as today, and gas wasn't that expensive. That meant bigger engines, faster cars, and just more reason for people to believe "bigger, faster... better"
haha yeah before people cared to accept the theorys of pollution x]
If only we still had those days when they still made cars in late 60s to early 80s like plytmoth roadrunners, chevy Camaros/Chevelles, Mustangs, Shelby Cobras, etc.
Alot of other companies who had nice muscle cars like AMC which people don't even know of. -.-
Actually that reminds me of alot of hot foreign vehicles Datsun fairladyZ! I love the Datsun 260z <3
ı love most of old cars , ı think all of them the examples of how
the car endustry ımproved and the memories of old days and
(plus) 'some of them are really amazing car still for me ' .. there are many examples but ı can say this two
E Type Jaguar 1961-68
1967 Chevrolet
Corvette, Sting Ray

Umm... plenty of '60s and '70s cars could break 100 without trouble, and many could go much higher than that. Those 350HP+ V8s weren't just for show.
Of course... I wouldn't WANT to do over 80 on '70s tires. The sheer lack of grip is stunning.
yeah seriously, watch the cars in youtube...........there will be a lot of good examples.
love old cars! S12!
thats something u don't see everyday...
I am now in Tokyo Japan
Old cars rock! Plus they can go real fast, like those v8's An example is the 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS. It had the most horsepower in the world in the 70's. here's some pics.
the classic Hemi...here we ok?..they posted 425 hp for insurance reasons but if dyno it..it rocks a whooping 860hp and 622 ft-lb of torque..bad ass!! vintage muscle cars rule..
~~Gaki no Tsukai~~
the plymouth barracuda that is the best car that came out of the olden days
i don't mind old cars as long as the interior is as nice as a car now-a-days

P.O. Freas, of the Punxsutawney Cyclery, has returned from Buffalo where he purchased a large supply of bicycle sundries and parts for repairing the steel steeds.
The shop is now better equipped than ever for repair work, and wheelmen will do well to make a note of this. Freas' cyclery has been a very popular place this season.
There are many accommodations extended there that are not afforded to the cycling people at any other establishment in the State.
All work done is guaranteed and the customer has the benefit of the doubt.
Sundries just a trifle cheaper than anywhere else. Competent repairers, no experimenting on your wheel. Second hand wheels at from $5 to $25. New wheels $30 to $75. Next week a dandy new wheel will be offered at $30.

The Maryland Transportation Authority has named Bruce W. Gartner its executive secretary, effective Dec. 11, following seven months of his acting in the role.
Gartner, 48, temporarily filled the agency's top position in June for former executive Harold Bartlett, upon Bartlett's retirement. The MdTA is an independent state agency that owns and operates the state's toll roads, bridges and tunnels.
The agency has 1,700 employees, including its own police force, an annual operating budget of $270 million and a six-year capital program of $2.2 billion.
Gartner's annual salary will be $135,407, the MdTA said.
Gartner, of Annapolis, was named the director of the Maryland Department of Transportation's policy and governmental affairs office in 2007, and while acting secretary of the MdTA was also assistant secretary for transportation policy and freight at MDOT.
He has served in various other roles at the MdTA and MDOT, including as the MdTA's director of strategic development for four years, over a nearly 24-year career in transportation, the MdTA said.
James Smith, the state's transportation secretary and chairman of the MdTA board, said in a statement that Gartner "has a keen sense of policy development, fiscal responsibility and the legislative process at both the state and federal levels," and "never hesitates to roll up his sleeves, put in the long hours and get the job done."
In his own statement, Gartner said he is "incredibly honored to have the trust" of Smith and the board.
"I look forward to building on MdTA's efforts to improve customer service, safety, efficient travel and financial stewardship," he said.
Gartner has a bachelor's degree in political science and a master's degree in public policy analysis, both from the University of Rochester, the MdTA said.

WALTHAM, Mass. -- Because of construction on South Street, traffic on and off of the Brandeis University campus will be affected between Oct. 5 and 7. This will have a significant impact on Saturday, October 6, for the men's and women's soccer matches between Brandeis and Case Western Reserve University.
The following comes from Director of Public Safety Ed Callahan
The Massachusetts Bay Commuter Railroad Company (MBCRC) recently announced that it will replace the train-crossing tracks on South Street near the Brandeis/Roberts commuter rail station between Friday, Oct. 5, at 11 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 7, at 8 p.m. The work will force the closure to traffic of the South Street railroad crossing during that time. As a result, most South Street traffic will be stopped and forced to detour at Highland and Bedford streets east of campus, closer to downtown Waltham. Local traffic, including drivers going to and from Brandeis, will be allowed to pass.
Drivers approaching Brandeis from the west and south on I95, Route 30 or the Massachusetts Turnpike will face a similar situation. Local traffic will be allowed to pass through detour checkpoints on River Road and South Street, but only to the area of the tracks. No vehicular traffic will be allowed to cross the tracks to the campus entrance, though pedestrians will be able to cross at safe location.
Because of this road work, it is suggested that those who wish to attend the soccer matches traveling from Route 30, the Massachusetts Turnpike (Route 90) or Route 128, instead of taking Exit 25 off of 128 instead travel north one exit to Exit 26 and approach from Route 20 (Main Street).

One of four young sociologists who joined the faculty at UMass Amherst in the years after the Second World War, John Manfredi carried the entire load of teaching theory from 1948 to 1967. A native of Philadelphia and graduate of the University of Pennsylvania (BA 1942), Manfredi came to Amherst after completing an MA at Harvard in 1948, teaching while simultaneously completing his dissertation, "The Relationship of Class-Structured Pathologies to the Contents of Popular Periodical Fiction, 1936-1940" (Harvard, 1951). A specialist in social theory and cultural systems, he taught anthropology for several years and both his research and teaching revolved around the sociology of religion and art. His best know work, The Social Limits of Art, appeared in 1982, three years before his retirement. Manfredi died in February 1993.
Consisting of essays and course notes from his days as a graduate student at Harvard, the John Manfredi collection documents the training and early professional work of a sociologist. Notable among these are materials relating to classes offered by eminent figures such as Talcott Parsons, Carle C. Zimmerman, and P.A. Sorokin.

I feel differently about Hunter Pence than I did about Roy Oswalt and Lance Berkman last year. Oswalt and Berkman had somewhat burned their bridges, and their goodwill, with me far before the trade deadline with their perceived complaining, poor body language, and overall fussyness about their very presence.
Hunter Pence was a treat to watch (and I realize this reads like an obituary). He was weird, he had googly eyes, and by all accounts, he would spend so much time in the batting cage that he would almost wear himself out. Who doesn't like a player who works too hard - sort of the antithesis to Lance Berkman's public sentiment?
I'm not too good at remembering specific games. It's shameful, really, how devoted I am to the Astros, but I don't have that game-by-game recall. (Recently I had the chance to go to Philadelphia and hung out with a buddy of mine - huge Phillies fan. I said the only time I had ever been to Citizens Bank Park was Labor Day 2006. Immediately he said, "Astros game. Clemens vs. Hamels, and Clemens had to come out with a groin injury." Of course he was right, but there was no real reason for him to remember that particular game. That's not me.) But I do remember April 27, 2007. The Astros had just lost to the Brewers, and Phil Garner announced post-game that the Astros were calling up Hunter Pence. I was immediately enthralled - it was probably the most excited I had been about the Astros since the World Series.
Over the years, Pence proved himself to Astros fans, quickly becoming a fan favorite, if only because he played hard, and got results at an acceptable rate. For everyone who says that "Pence is a #6 hitter on a good team" should understand what the Astros' franchise has become that Pence should earn such a spot in our hearts.
With players like Carlos Lee, 2010 Berkman, and 2010 Oswalt, Pence shut his mouth and played hard.
But this move had to happen. Because the Astros called him up in April, he got an extra year of arbitration. It's not impossible to think that Pence could earn $25m over the next two years of arbitration. A team like the Astros can't have that. He's simply becoming too expensive, and to be able to have this kind of leverage - a good, young player, with years of team control, in the prime of his career - is a rare opportunity. I know Drayton loves Hunter Pence, probably like a son, maybe like a forbidden lover. But this is about winning for the next ten years, not staring at a guy in right field and thinking, "What a swell player."
To think that Pence is the only marketable player the Astros have is ridiculous, and a sign that maybe the Astros need a better PR staff.
It's amazing the Astros were even able to do this, considering their draft history over the past eight years. This is the flip-side of developing talent - to trade them for more prospects in the event that you simply cannot compete with the hand that you're dealt. It's similar to spending $5 on a scratch-off, winning $10, and then buying more scratch-offs. That's what rebuilding is: constantly trying to hit the jackpot. It might not happen, but you have to try. For the Astros, sentimentality hasn't gotten them anywhere.
Good luck, Hunter Pence. Thank you for being good.

Fare thee well, Hunter Pence
2 comments:
Very well said. Another thing to consider is that even though he may not have wanted to be traded, he's going to a contender. He may be a world series winner by the end of the season, and that's something he wouldn't have been able to experience with Houston until he was at least a free agent (who knows, maybe we'll sign him when he's done with Philly).

A Clare based action group has warned a British energy firm that fracking of a natural gas field off the west coast will not proceed — "not now, not ever".
According to the Irish Examiner, London-based Enegi plans to apply for an exploration license over the coming weeks. The independent oil and gas group currently operates in Ireland, the UK and Canada.
Clare Fracking Concerned spokeswoman Róisín Ní Gháirbhith said: "What Enegi Oil need to realize is locals value their health, water, environment and, most of, all their children a lot more than any short term jobs or financial gains."
"We strongly encourage Enegi to stop wasting its time and energy investigating the possibility of carrying out fracking in our county."
Ní Gháirbhith emphasized: "Not now, not ever will this highly controversial, destructive method of extracting gas be allowed by the people."
A study by the company showed that there is up to 3.86 trillion cubic feet of shale gas in the site, south of Doonbeg and north of Kilrush in Co. Clare.
Enegi's preliminary findings stated that "given the maturity, thickness and buried depth of the shale, the whole area under the option remains prospective for shale gas."
The extraction method is known as fracking (hydraulic fracturing). Fracking involves creating fractures in rocks by injecting fluid into cracks to force them further open. The larger openings allow more oil and gas to flow out of the formation. The practice has been the source of much controversy worldwide.
Enegi chief executive Alan Minty said the company was looking forward to exploring off the coast of Clare.
"Our findings and the report from Fugro have further endorsed management's belief that the Clare basin has a strong best case investment profile. The whole acreage appears to be very prospective and we are particularly excited by the area at the centre of the existing seismic grid which we have defined as high grade."

By the time Sunday evening comes around, Virginia coach Tony Bennett may not have such a glib opinion of the task that sits before the NCAA tournament committee when it comes to evaluating his team's chances of gaining entry to the tournament.
Yet, to his credit, he was able to find humor in the situation his program is suddenly in after Friday's 75-56 loss to North Carolina State in the ACC tournament quarterfinals.
With apologies to the producers of a certain Mexican beer (but in keeping with a theme), U.Va. (21-11) may not always find itself on the tournament bubble, but when it does…
"We're the 'Dos Equis' bubble team," said Bennett, whose team was 67th in Ratings Percentage Index projections coming into the day. "We're the most interesting bubble team in the world. We gotta stay thirsty, right?
"We do have some quality wins, absolutely, have some bad losses, have the injuries. They'll have to make those decisions. It is a unique situation, and that's where it's at."
It's true. Based on its whacky collection of wins and losses, U.Va. is something of a mystery.
How do you evaluate a team that came into the quarterfinals with four wins against team rated in the RPI top 50, but also had seven losses to teams rated 113th or worse? Furthermore, Maryland may be on the verge of complicating matters even more.
Maryland beat Duke on Friday in the quarterfinals. On Saturday, Maryland will get a chance to improve a resume that wasn't anywhere near NCAA tournament-ready coming into the ACC tournament when it faces North Carolina in the semifinals.
So, let's say Maryland has wins against Duke and UNC by Saturday night. At that point, could Maryland really be considered a more attractive NCAA tournament candidate than U.Va., considering U.Va. has beaten both Duke and UNC and swept Maryland in two regular season meetings?
That's a conundrum for the committee to figure out. One thing that's clear is how thoroughly beaten U.Va. was against N.C. State.
In a matchup that figured to be fairly even (at least the fine folks in Las Vegas thought so), N.C. State grabbed control early in the second half thanks to the deadeye shooting of Scott Wood (N.C. State ACC tournament-record seven 3-pointers) and some determined offensive rebounding.
It also didn't help U.Va. that its cold-shooting of late continued to be an issue. U.Va. shot 38.9 percent from the floor. In losing three of its last four games, U.Va. has failed to eclipse 42.6 percent shooting in any of the games.
"We came out lackadaisical on both ends of the floor," said U.Va. guard Jontel Evans, a Bethel High graduate.
"I know we'll get a chance to play in the NIT or NCAA (tournament). This loss right here will open our eyes.
"We let our offense dictate our defense. Just because we didn't shoot the ball well, we weren't getting back on defense, either. We let guys get to the basket at will. We weren't getting back in transition. They actually annihilated us on the glass, so we can't play like that. We have to be on our 'A' game for the full 40 minutes."

U.Va. has picked a terrible time to collectively lose its shooting touch. Every player not named Akil Mitchell – and to a certain extent Mike Tobey – that has averaged more than five minutes of playing time per contest in at least the last five games has struggled.
Mitchell has been very steady in the last six games, averaging 17.3 points and 9.7 rebounds per game while shooting 60.3 percent (41 of 68) from the floor.
In U.Va.'s loss at Florida State and win against Maryland immediately prior to the ACC tournament, Tobey was strong off the bench, averaging 12.5 points and 6.5 rebounds off the bench while shooting 64.7 percent (11 of 17). He couldn't sustain his recent success against N.C. State in his second start of the season, finishing with six points on 3 of 9 shooting and three rebounds in 19 minutes.
Every other player that has gotten significant minutes for U.Va. of late has been inconsistent on the offensive end.
Joe Harris was certainly worthy of All-ACC first team distinction this season, but he hasn't played like an all-conference pick in the last four games. He was 4 of 13 shooting, including 2 of 9 from 3-point range, against N.C. State.
In the last four games, he's made just 17 of 57 shots (29.8 percent), including 7 of 26 (26.9 percent) from beyond the 3-point line. Those aren't exactly numbers indicative of a guy that's third in the conference in 3-point shooting percentage (43.2) for the season.
Freshman Justin Anderson has started the last 11 games. He scored 14 and 17 points, respectively, in wins against Clemson and at Maryland in his first two starts during that stretch. Since then, he's averaged just 5.6 points per game while shooting 40 percent from the floor (20 of 50).
Freshman Evan Nolte has missed 14 of his last 17 shot attempts. Paul Jesperson is 11 for his last 35 (31.4 percent) shooting from the floor in his last six games. Evans is 8 for 30 shooting (26.7 percent) in his last five games.
Regardless of whether U.Va. earns a bid to the NCAA tournament or the National Invitation Tournament, there needs to be a serious change in shooting fortunes, or it'll be a short postseason for the Cavaliers.
"I think we've got a lot more fight in us," Evans said. "I think we could've been sounder on both ends of the floor, but you know, maybe we need this. Maybe this is the wake-up call that we have to be on our 'A' game to play against teams like that."

Motion Picture Association: The Cloud Is A Threat To Us And The Best Response Is Censorship
from the hammers-and-nails dept
The news was even worse from Frank Rittman, SVP of the Motion Picture Association, Asia Pacific, who stated that potential pirates have all the digital tools they need to make illegal media sharing more viral than ever. "Digital online technology has enabled new channels of delivery for entertainment media," he said. "The cloud also represents a threat in that it facilitates piracy, and the pirates seem to have gotten into this space first."He also complains that Hong Kong won't pass a law like this because the process has been "hijacked by extremists." Well, that's one way of looking at it. The alternative way is that arguing that flat out censorship of entire sites because you have been too slow to adapt, is crazy talk and is significantly more extremist than anything anyone else has been arguing. If you want to go after direct infringement, go after that. But censorship of entire sites is going way too far. And, contrary to his claims, it has not "worked" nor has it "met with some success." It hasn't driven people back to paying for movies.
The answer to both problems, Rittman believes, is pushing for Internet Service Providers to block sites known to be troublemakers when it comes to Internet piracy. He pointed to examples of the practice in Europe, Indonesia, Malaysia, and South Korea as models of how this has worked as a low-cost way of cutting down on piracy that has met with some success.
Really, Rittman's statements are an example of the problem. Here are people so focused on "stopping piracy" that they don't care about the consequences of their own actions on innovation, nor do they care about whether or not it helps their own bottom line.

Joaquin scuffle
That loser was in Miami last night "performing". Was heckled from the crowd and deservedly so which prompted Joaquin to jump the dude. Melee ensued, Phoenix is hauled away, Casey Affleck naturally shot the whole thing, and they probably laughed about it at the hotel afterwards the entire night.
Some are calling it a set up, more shenanigans as part of the big lame hoax.
Other bleeding hearts are saying it's another sign of meltdown.
Me I think he's a douchebag.
The video of the incident can be viewed here.
Here are photos of him arriving last night. But for his head, the rest of him actually looks clean. Pressed expensive suit fits him well.
Some of you have emailed asking for Joaquin Phoenix to be labelled sad smut, certain that his behaviour must be the result of drug addiction or depression. Mainstream media outlets like Entertainment Weekly that have previously reported this as an obnoxious stunt would likely disagree with you.
It's in our nature I think to want to attribute assy-ness to affliction. There has to be a reason, an explanation – no one is assy, just because.
I disagree.
I think some people just suck. Not because they're sick, not because they're suffering, but because they simply suck. For instance, I'm a bitch. I wasn't abused, I don't have a drug problem, I don't have emotional issues…I'm simply a bitch. A petty, selfish, shallow person.
Gossip as I always say is a like a buffet. You choose your interpretation.
Is Joaquin sick? Or does he just suck?

Do you like Maynard James Keenan? Itching to see or own Blood Into Wine, the documentary he released about opening and running his Arizona winery?
I can help you with that. I have several copies to give away over the course of the next month. We're going to start this week. Please note that this is a regular DVD and not a Blu-Ray, in case your electronics fall into the "fancy" category.
Just post in the comments section below the reason WHY you want to own this movie. Try to give me something interesting, such as why you like MJK, or why you want to learn about his wine. "I like movies about wine!" or "MJK is so hot!" are not acceptable answers. Try to think of something astute and/or interesting, okay?
I'll leave the comments section open through 11:55 pm EST, Saturday, Nov 13. Any comments entered after that point (in case I'm not awake to close the comments) will not be entered in the contest. On Sunday, Nov 14, I'll use a randomizer to select the number of the winning comment. It will be totally random and is only valid if the winner meets the following conditions:
1. You leave an actual comment on this post and do NOT email me instead. Emailing won't work for this. I know you folks prefer to email rather than comment, but just this one time I need you to use the comments section, okay?
2. When you fill out the comment form, please leave a valid name in the correct field, not a user name. Please don't make me send an email to wineloverboy2506 or some such thing. I won't do it. I'd much rather email Dear Emily, You won!
3. When you fill out the comment form, you must include a valid email address that you actually check. I'll post the name and comment number of the winner on Sunday, but I still need to contact you to negotiate a way to get this DVD to you.
4. Just a reminder about our Comments policy – in particular, the part about being excellent to each other.
Start commenting!
Once upon a time I wrote for the (now defunct) Taste Magazine. I was working on an article about celebrity-branded alcohol, although that article got scrapped when I took over the Wine Academy column for the magazine. In the process of researching that article, I somehow managed to get in touch with the publicist for Maynard James Keenan, and eventually, I interviewed him. It's just as well my article got scrapped, because my recording of the interview wasn't very good. It was so bad, I have yet to be able to clean it up and use it. (Since then, I've improved my recording equipment.)
For those unfamiliar, Maynard James Keenan is the front man for rock bands Tool, Puscifer, and A Perfect Circle. Until I met Kevin Keith, I had no idea who he was, so don't feel bad, and I think that Maynard actually preferred my lack of knowledge of his music during the interview. If there is anything I got out of that conversation, it's that he doesn't like being called a "Rock Star." Well, that and Maynard James Keenan is the most intense person to whom I have ever spoken. I believe that he does everything with the same intensity – be it music or wine, which should tell you something about his wine.
When Kevin and I went to Arizona in 2007, we visited Cornville, AZ as we drove south towards Phoenix from the Grand Canyon. It's off the beaten path a bit, but Cornville was an absolute delight for us as wine lovers. We started at Page Springs Cellars, where it just so happens that Maynard had worked with the wine maker to learn everything he could about wine. At the time, Page Springs Cellars was also selling Maynard's labels, Caduceus Cellars and Merkin Vineyards. (Our Photos from Arizona Wineries) We have several Maynard-created wines in our wine fridge.
When I interviewed Maynard, he was working on launching Arizona Stronghold, a winery in the southern Arizona ghost town of Jerome. (A lot of grapes are grown in southern Arizona.) Last summer, an article in Decanter.com alerted me that Maynard and his winemaker Eric Glomski have officially launched the new winery.
Turns out, the process of creating Arizona Stronghold is the basis for a new documentary called Blood Into Wine. It premieres in Arizona (of course) on February 19 (full list of theatres is after the jump – mostly West Coast I'm afraid). But the DVD will be released on May 4 Sept 6. Check out the trailer. Even if you don't like his music, how can you resist a documentary like this? It's got music, wine, and a lot of humor, I think.
Blood Into Wine arrives in select theaters on Feb. 19 with a Phoenix-based premiere at the W Hotel Scottsdale.

10 December 2010|
Everyone has a weakness and even the toughest street fighter has a weak spot if you can strike the right pressure point. Tony Nazzal's 350Z has gone through many iterations over the years, to eliminate all the weak spots he had identified. When I first saw this Z33, it had next to nothing in the power-adder department but you could see that Nazzal was going to take to strengthen it and build a prize fighter. That was around five years ago and Nazzal has continued to build his creation into something rarely seen in the Spo-Com world. This time around, Nazzal went through the painstaking process of tearing the shell apart and fitting it with a widebody to set off the appearance of the Z like nothing we'd seen before. He turned to widebody specialists, BRS Autodesign to source out a Version III JGTC widebody kit for the Z. After it was slightly customized, the hood was modified to clear the Eaton-style blower and fitted with Aerocatch hood-pins. The body was then shot in several layers of Dupont Chromallusion paint called Absolute Purpeen. "The trademark of my project has always been the Chameleon paint scheme," states Nazzal. The roof was then sprayed in gloss black and the rear deck was fitted with an APR GT500 carbon fiber wing. Nazzal added some smaller accents like carbon fiber B-pillars and airbrushed "Z" and "Nissan" logos.
From there the attention turned back to the motor. "The car was being ranked in the highest classes at car shows and did well holding its own against completely done and insane widebody JDM themed vehicles, without a widebody or crazy motor," admits Nazzal. However, it was time for Nazzal to start paying his dues under the hood. The jam was to be made with a supercharger and when it came to pull the trigger on one, Nazzal went with the Nissan experts at Stillen. This stage 4 kit has dual fuel maps for both pump and 100 octane, and keeps it fat since the internals are stock. A 7th injector has been added and the fuel is jammed in with a Walbro 255lph pump providing the stream of fuel. The compressed air heads into an air-to-liquid chiller before it heads to the chambers. The spent gases are directed out of DC Sports headers and into a Motordyne single exit titanium exhaust.
With the bump in power, the Z needed some suspension and brakes to harness it. A set of K&W Variant 3 coilovers were added to the project for advanced adjustability. Then Cusco rear upper control arms were bolted up along with Stillen adjustable sway bars and front strut bar. Nazzal went through the hassle of removing the entire suspension and then either chroming or powder-coating every piece.
In the braking department, StopTech gear was added including a 4-piston/355mm front brake along with a 4-piston/330mm rear connected by stainless lines filled with Motul RBF600 fluid. The wheels and tires commanded Nazzal's full attention during selection and sizing. He got the legendary Foose to build a custom set. These bad boys measure 20x8.5-inches in the front and 20x10.5-inch with whopping 7-inches of lip in the rear. Since Nazzal is sponsored by Continental Tire, he selected the impressive Sport Contact 2 in a 245/35R20 in front and a healthy 275/30R20 in the rear, then the whole package bolted up with Trust lightweight lug nuts.
As a former winner of many awards, it didn't come without hard work everywhere on the car. Inside, some Bride gear such as the Euro II passenger seat and the Profi XL driver seat are both reupholstered custom suede. The Brides are draped with a 5-point driver-side and 4-point passenger-side harness. There are matching Bride floor mats and custom Bride fabric on the headliner, doors, trim panels and rear hatch. The dash and pillars have been wrapped in black suede and the console has been wrapped in carbon fiber overlay. All steering inputs are made via a Personal Grinta wheel connected to a Works Bell quick release.
The audio install includes some of the best gear on the market. The first order of business was to source a Kenwood DVX700 double-DIN headunit with touchscreen. Signals are fed to a pair of Boston Acoustics amps, one mono and one 4-channel. From there, the mono drives the Boston Acoustics subwoofers and the multi-channel heads to Boston Acoustics 6.5-inch component speakers. A trio of Kenwood 6.5 monitors were added in both the console and on the passenger side and a massive 19-inch monitor found in a custom rear floating enclosure. The electronics are rounded out with a Playstation2 slim in the glove-box along with a Valentine One radar detector in a stealth location.
A total of four years in the making, Nazzal has truly poured everything into his car. A total of $80,000 and four years equates to what you see here and that is with the discount at his job as the Parts Manager of Riverside Infiniti in California! Look for Nazzal and his team-mates of Ar'Kan to put a dent in the show scene and hit a few pressure points of their own.

Saab's automotive history can be traced back to its aircraft-inspired roots. Originally known as Svenska Aeroplan Aktiebolaget, which is Sweedish for Svenska Airplane Company, SAAB didn't turn out its first car until 1955 with the release of the Saab 92. Powered by a 750cc two-cylinder two-stroke engine mounted ahead of the front axle, Saab engineers also gave the 92 an interior safety cage to protect passengers in case of an accident, regarded as one of the first safety additions to the automobile.
It would be another quarter-century before the Saab line became popular in the U.S. with the release of its breakthrough Saab 900 in 1978. Produced over two generations until it ceased production in 1998, the Saab 900 borrowed the chassis of its predecessor, the Saab 99, but the front end of the 900 had to be lengthened to conform with U.S. crash regulations.
The 900 series set numerous speed and endurance records during its run. Most notably, in December 2006, a U.S. midwestern traveling salesman donated his Saab 900 to the Wisconsin Automotive Museum after having amassed an astounding 1,001,385 miles during his career.
Even to the most casual observer, the exterior look of Saab's vehicles over the years points to a design distinction rare in the automotive industry; the stout rear-end, elongated front, and the distinctive black trim along its window frames. But there's much more going on under the surface.
Harkening back to its aircraft heritage, one of the first noticeable features of the Saab 900 is its deeply curved front windshield, affording the driver enhanced road visibility. The interior dashboard layout was similarly aircraft-inspired, with a curved design for easy dial reach with front-illuminated gauges. Saab engineers also placed the gauges according to their usage frequency so drivers didn't have to divert their eyes from the road any more than was absolutely necessary. Not surprisingly, the radio was given the easiest access.
Innovativeness reigned under the hood as well. Unique among cars at the time, the Saab 900 featured a backwards-installed engine with power coming from the crank at the front of the car. To match with the engine's position, the transaxle transmission was bolted directly to the bottom of the engine, forming the vehicle's oil pan. Power between the two was subsequently channeled via a set of chain-driven gears.
The closing year for the immensely popular Saab 900 in 1998 utilized the same body design that signaled the launch of its second generation four years earlier.
Four trim variants were available to buyers: the non-turbo four-cylinder S series, the four-cylinder turbo or V-6 SE model, the five-door convertible, and a special edition Talladega model, named after the 900's record-breaking performance at the famous racetrack in 1996. All trims came in two-, three-, or five-door options.
Available in a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual overdrive transmission, consumers were given several engine options, the base powertrain consisting of four-cylinder 2.0-liter gas-powered engine that delivered 185 hp and 194 lb-ft of torque. With a 2,000-pound towing capacity, the 18-gallon 1998 Saab 900 was EPA rated for 19/25 mpg city/highway when utilizing the four-speed automatic and 21/27 mpg respectively for the five-speed manual overdrive.
Some of the 1998 standard features included 15-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats and mirrors, power windshield wipers front and back, driver and passenger airbags, cruise control, anti-theft alarm system, and a rear spoiler. Leather seats and steering wheel, as well as a power-operated moonroof, were optional on all trims.
Over its 20-year production run, the Saab 900 enjoyed many model variants and commemorative special editions.
Arguably the most well known Saab 900 variation, at least in the U.S., was the convertible, initially introduced in 1986. The three-door hatchback was usually equipped with a 16-valve turbo-charged engine, but was also made available within specific markets with a 2.1-liter fuel-injected engine.
Two years earlier, Saab created the Aero model, better known as SPG in the U.S. It was Saab's first 16-valve turbo-charged engine, with a stated power output of 175 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque. Lasting until 1991, the Saab Aero's predominantly came with a striking red leather interior.
1994 saw the unveiling of the second generation Saab NG900, which featured one of Saab's more unusual attributes: the Sensonic gear box. Available only with the turbo models, the Sensonic clutch variant omitted a clutch pedal in favor of an electronic device that engineers believed could control the clutch faster than drivers could. Unpopular with many drivers, the Sensonic feature was discontinued in subsequent Saab models.
Despite a lengthy and widely praised career of producing some of the most recognizable cars on the road, the Saab Company filed for bankruptcy in December 2011, after 64 years in the auto-making business.

IUCN is working closely with three key United Nations environmental conventions to develop a shared roadmap to promote gender equality and women's empowerment worldwide.
Empowering women and ensuring gender equality are seen as critical to achieving sustainable development and tackling environmental challenges. The three conventions: the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) are inter-related and all address gender issues to a different extent.
Realising that increased cooperation between them is needed to maximise progress on gender issues, the heads of the Conventions have decided to synchronise their efforts and increase collaboration with the Global Environmental Facility, the international finance organization that provides grants to improve the global environment.
A meeting was held between all parties during the recent UN General Assembly in New York and comes in preparation for the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) in June next year. It also helped develop a Gender Policy Framework and Action Plan for the UNCCD whose conference takes place this month.
Dryland populations include the poorest, hungriest, the least healthy and the most marginalized people in the world and many of those suffering are women. It is therefore critical to recognize the important and diverse roles of both women and men within the sustainable development agenda, and in which UNCCD plays a crucial role.
In drylands women make crucial contributions in agriculture and rural enterprises. Their roles vary across regions, but in every part of the world women face constraints that reduce their productivity and limit their contributions to agricultural production, economic growth and the well-being of their families, communities and countries.
"Gender mainstreaming isn't just paying lip service to equality between men and women by adding women's participation to existing strategies and programmes," says IUCN's Senior Gender Advisor Lorena Aguilar. "Rather, it transforms unequal social and institutional structures to realize the full creative and productive potential of women and men, reducing vulnerability and enhancing efficiency of development programmes."
"The UNCCD Gender Policy Framework recognises there is no single entry point for gender mainstreaming—it has to take place at different levels– and that no single entity is solely responsible. It is a multi-stakeholder responsibility," said UNCCD Global Policy Head, Sergio Zelaya.

|Docket Numbers: RM05-1-000
Commission issues final rules governing open seasons for potential Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline Projects
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission today approved landmark rules to establish requirements governing the conduct of open seasons for capacity on proposals for Alaska natural gas pipeline projects. Because of the importance of the rulemaking, the Commission has designated it as Order No. 2005.
The rules fulfill the Commission's obligations required by a Congressional mandate to establish rules within 120 days of the October 13, 2004 enactment of the Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline Act. The final rules respond to comments received on the Commission's November 15, 2004 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and comments presented at a December 3, 2004 technical conference held in Anchorage, Alaska.
"The construction and operation of a natural gas pipeline from Alaska's North Slope to markets in the lower 48 states is vital to assuring abundant energy supplies at reasonable prices," said Chairman Pat Wood, III.
"Our actions today are consistent with our mandate from Congress to promote competition in the development of Alaska natural gas," said Commissioner Joseph Kelliher.
"In particular, our policy on pricing for pipeline expansion will promote additional exploration and development of Alaska natural gas," said Commissioner Suedeen Kelly.
"These rules will help meet the demand for natural gas in the lower 48 states while meeting in-state needs. This will promote development of Alaska resources while furthering the state's economic development," said Commissioner Nora Mead Brownell.
The final rules establish standards for creating open seasons for initial and voluntary expansion capacity and for allocating capacity to ensure non-discriminatory access to any Alaska transportation project. Open seasons are commercial opportunities for potential customers to compete for and acquire capacity on a proposed or existing pipeline. Open seasons inform project sponsors of shippers' needs so that they may adjust a project design accordingly.
The rules also promote competition in the exploration, development and production of Alaskan natural gas, and provide opportunities for the transportation of natural gas from sources other than Prudhoe Bay or Point Thomson if the open seasons exceed the initial capacity of a pipeline project.
The rules will require prospective applicants to use the results of an Alaska State gas study to design capacity needs for use within the state, and design in-state delivery points and in-state transportation rates as part of the open season. Bidding on in-state capacity must be conducted independent of out-of-state deliveries during a prospective applicant's open season.
Maintaining its pledge to protect shippers from undue discrimination and preferential treatment in allocating capacity, the Commission will impose on all applicants, particularly applicants for affiliate-owned projects, strict reporting requirements on the open seasons so that the Commission and the public may monitor and ensure that competition for the capacity is conducted fairly.
Prospective applicants will be required to provide to FERC detailed information on project design, how capacity will be allocated, proposed rates, terms and conditions for service, and identities of any affiliates involved in the production of natural gas in Alaska. In addition, the Commission will require that information provided to one potential shipper be made available to all others.
To encourage development of Alaska gas and provide flexibility to prospective applicants, the Commission will permit pre-subscriptions for "anchor" shippers for capacity. Anchor shippers refer to the few shippers that hold significant volumes of natural gas that will financially support, to a great extent, the initial design and cost of a project. All such pre-subscription agreements must be made public within 10 days of execution and all other bidders in the open season must have an opportunity to negotiate the same terms.
The Commission will require applicants to disclose publicly the results of the open season within 10 days with names of the shippers, amount of capacity awarded and the terms of the agreement. Copies of the accepted precedent agreements and copies of any rejection letters must be provided to the Commission within 20 days.
Under the Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline Act, Congress empowered the Commission with the unique opportunity to order the expansion of any Alaska gas pipeline, if necessary. With respect to future expansions proposed by the sponsors of any Alaska gas pipeline, the Commission said it would apply a rebuttable presumption in favor of rolled-in rate treatment. This means that the costs of expansions could be averaged with the costs of existing facilities in determining rates, rather than setting expansion rates on a stand-alone basis.
The final rules will take effect 90 days after publication in Federal Register

Since there is absolutely nothing going on in the tech world today (really, we checked the internet), we figured some off-topic lightness might be a good idea for this Saturday night (it's night already in The Netherlands). The question we pose to you today has absolutely nothing to do with operating systems, computers, or technology: what albums are you most looking forward to in the coming one, two years? I blogged about my five most-awaited albums for 2008/2009, and this is my list (all albums are yet to be named): Fiona Apple's 4th album (I kind of really like Fiona Apple), the 7th studio album by The Cardigans, Garbage's successor to "Bleed Like Me", A Camp's coming second album, and Garbage front-woman Shirley Manson's first solo album.

Nick Clegg has told Boris Johnson to focus on fixing London's housing crisis and transport system rather than throwing lewd insults at him.
The Deputy Prime Minister hit back after the capital's Tory mayor branded him David Cameron's condom during an interview.
Speaking on his regular LBC phone-in, the Liberal Democrat leader pointed out that Mr Johnson had issued the "prophylactic protection" jibe on Tuesday - which was his 47th birthday.
"This was on my birthday," Clegg joked. "I have had nicer birthday wishes than that, I can tell you.
"I do think that without sounding too pious we have all got quite important jobs to get on with and I think most Londoners listening to this would expect Boris Johnson to focus on the day job of sorting out our transport system, our housing crisis in London, rather than ever more exotic ways of describing his political opponents."
Clegg played down the importance of recent warm comments about him by shadow chancellor Ed Balls.
He said the idea the pair were paving the way for a post-election Labour-Lib Dem coalition was "completely ridiculous".
"I think Ed Balls confessed to the fact that he and I had a passing friendly conversation in the House of Commons," he said.
"If this is now being interpreted as some great act of political significance then we are reaching new levels of hype."
Clegg, who previously admitted that Mr Balls was the one politician he had personal animosity with, said they disagreed strongly on many issues.
"That doesn't mean you can't treat someone like a human being," he added.
Clegg said: "I am for once with Ed Balls on this. I think name calling is all very passe, all very 2013. I am going to say to Boris come on Boris, join Ed Balls and myself, let's have a truce."

Many parts of the world are experiencing heat waves, and for the first time many people are having trouble sleeping because it is just too hot.
Research has shown that there seems to be an ideal temperature for sleep and when this temperature is very high, it takes longer to fall asleep, and once sleep is achieved, it is broken up or fragmented and there is less dreaming.
In many parts of the world where it is always hot in the summer, people will often have air conditioning in their dwellings. However, with extreme heat waves, electrical power often goes down because of increased demand.
Here are some helpful tips.
1. Do whatever you can to prevent excessive heat build-up in your sleep environment . During the daytime use blinds to keep out sunlight and keep the windows closed if the temperature outside is much hotter than inside. At night time, if the temperature is less outside than inside, open your windows.
2. Remember that heat rises. So if you are living in a multiple story dwelling the lower you are the cooler it will be.
3. If there is absolutely nothing you can do to cool off your dwelling, consider asking friends or relations who have a cooler dwelling or who live in a cooler place, whether you can stay with them for a few nights. They will understand.
4. If worse comes to worst, in some parts of the world people end up sleeping outdoors because it is simply not possible to cool off their dwellings at night. If you sleep outdoors, consider the need to protect yourself against mosquitoes and other insects.
5. Some communities may have cooling centers in schools or public places that are air-conditioned.
6. This is important! Some people will sleep in a motor vehicle and have the air conditioning running. This can be very dangerous if the vehicle is not moving, because there may be a build-up of carbon monoxide.
1. Water is a great

Aside from the fact that the sculpts are a bit off, I like these better than the three packs. Funny how they were designed with removable helmets, makes you think ROTS ones could be on the way.
I've got these crazy figures I got from "Star Tours" in Disney world in like 1994. A chewie, vader, and two Stormtroopersthey are rubbery and can't move at all, they just stand up with their hands down. The chewie is an off light brown, and the stromtroopes have gray paint on the top of their helmets from the eyes up.The have an LFL copyright for 1990 too.
