Do you have a chronic sore throat infection and/or a constantly congested nose/sinuses that persist for many months or years, as well as anxiety, depression, loss of desires, emotional flatness and/or fatigue symptoms? There is an infectious respiratory virus in circulation which causes these and many other symptoms. The main symptoms precipitated by this virus are as follows (you may not have all of them):
Early Symptoms (first few weeks of infection):
• Chronic sore throat (pharyngitis) that never fully heals (but many don't get this).
• Constantly congested nose/sinuses/post-nasal drip with unusually thick mucus.
Additional Symptoms (appear after a few months):
• Depression and low mood.
• Generalized anxiety disorder with significant anxiety states (even bordering on psychosis).
• Psychological changes and cognition disruptions.
• Loss of desires and sense of pleasure (anhedonia); loss of libido.
• Social withdrawal – escaping social activities more and more.
• Loss of drive and motivation.
• Memory problems both short-term and long-term recall.
• Unusual sleepiness and a tendency to fall asleep more.
• Chronic fatigue – a notable loss of energy.
• Stomach aches and pains with stomach and bowel rumbling, and excessive gas.
• Pins and needles (paresthesias), especially in the legs.
• Receding gums — a sudden onset of periodontitis, with brown plaque appearing on teeth.
Later Symptoms (appear at approximately 12 to 18 months):
• Slight wrinkling of the skin with unusual, fine-textured crêpe paper-like wrinkles.
• Weak legs and hips: legs and pelvic girdle feel slack.
• Weight gain, mainly on the belly (abdominal fat).
• Subtle loss of hearing acuity, making you slower in identifying environmental sounds.
• Progressive sensorineural hearing loss in the elderly.
• Emotional frailty, emotional lability, emotional flatness; irritability.
• Less frequently: tinnitus; blurred vision; occasional transient joint pains (arthralgia).
Other Possible Sequelae:
• Pericarditis, myocarditis and sudden heart attack in the previously healthy.
• Viral meningitis (can appear months after the initial infection).
Observation of multiple infectees indicates that this chronic sore throat virus has an unusually rapid incubation period: from the moment in time you first catch this virus (often picked up when kissing an infected person), it takes just 12 hours roughly for the initial sore throat or gastrointestinal symptoms to manifest.
Once caught, this viral infection does not seem to resolve, but remains as a persistent ongoing infection, and infected individuals seem to remain contagious for a long time (they can be infecting others even years later). It has been observed that this chronic sore throat virus gradually transmits from person-to-person through normal household contact, and once one person in a household contracts this virus, most other household members will catch it from them within a year or so. Several years after I caught this virus, it had slowly spread to more than 30 friends and family, and many of the above listed symptoms manifested to varying degrees in these 30+ people. The more severe symptoms listed above only appeared in around 10% of the infected people, but the majority of people contracting this chronic sore throat virus just manifested much milder (but permanent) symptoms, as described here.
We will see later that this "chronic sore throat virus" is most probably an enterovirus of some type, such as a coxsackievirus B (and my viral blood test results showed I had high levels of coxsackievirus B4 as an active ongoing infection).
Here is my account of how I caught this chronic sore throat virus, and how it gradually began infecting my whole body.
This infection began with a bad sore throat that I caught in the summer of 2003. Being in excellent physical shape at that time, I thought nothing of it. I had no rash on my body, though the back of my throat and the rear arch of my soft palete were red and inflamed (see image), looking a bit like a herpangina sore throat, but without pain, and without the blisters and ulcers that normally accompany herpangina. I paid little attention to it. Several weeks later, however, I noticed that my sore throat had not cleared up, and instead, the infection started spreading. This was strange, because I was very healthy at that point, HIV negative, with no previous medical problems, usually fighting off colds and infections very quickly. Yet this sore throat would not go away.
Within a month, this virus had spread to my nose, which started producing unusually thick and heavy mucus. My nose and sinuses thus became blocked and stuffy, needing to be regularly cleared of this thick mucus every hour or two. (This thick nasal mucus congestion is now a permanent symptom). A constant stuffy nose like this can be classified as chronic sinusitis, chronic rhinitis, post-nasal drip, or rhinorrhea.
Then my lungs became infected, leading to a mild chest infection and a dry cough. Soon after this, the virus reached my stomach, which started aching a little and producing gas and bubbling sounds, which created some belching. My rumbling, aching stomach became a chronic – but thankfully intermittent – symptom. The virus also spread to my intestines, where it produced odorless intestinal gas (odorless flatulence), bowel rumbles and bowel bloating (now all permanent symptoms).
After another month, this viral infection manifested a distinct new phase: intense mental state changes suddenly appeared. These disturbing psychological symptoms started with a feeling of being very tense, anxious and uncomfortable, especially in social company (even with good friends and family). I also became very weak mentally: my strength of mind disintegrated, and I became frail and feeble emotionally, as if I'd lost my emotional backbone. Being with other people seemed to further perturb my mind, and so it became quite unpleasant to socialize.
As a result of these psychological changes, I started avoiding social contact more and more, just because I found it a mental strain to be with people. Avoiding company made me lonely, yet being with people caused severe tension. This extreme anxiety made it impossible for me to continue working, so I left my job.
Additionally, just reading or listening to facts and ideas created strong tensions in my mind, as I tried to process the information. I could not handle facts and details, even from a book or television, without mental tension arising. This is more or less psychosis. As a coping strategy, I limited my time with people and information to help reduce this unpleasant mental tension.
Then I quickly became very apathetic. The apathy was towards all sorts of tasks and activities. My normal pro-active 'can do' attitude was replaced by a 'not interested' feeling — which is totally out of character. I am normally a motivated, enthusiastic and highly organized person. However, as this infection and its psychological effects progressed, I began to lose interest in the usual pleasures of life (a condition called anhedonia), including pleasure from sex, and also lost the desire for sex (low libido). My enthusiasm, drive and motivation just evaporated away.
I also began to experience some short-term memory difficulties, and inability to concentrate which caused problems in my day-to-day activities. There was some intelligence loss, particularly in my verbal, spelling and grammatical skills, and I found it a lot harder to recall words, people's names and other information from my long-term memory. Thus I found myself becoming less articulate, often mispronouncing words, and forgetting names.
Additionally, my physical body movements started getting a little more clumsy; I seemed to become physically less coordinated.
To sum up, psychologically, I became: anxious, depressed, avoiding social contact, unmotivated, emotionally delicate, confused, forgetful, clumsy, uncoordinated, with a dulled intellect, decreased verbal intelligence, and an impaired memory.
My virus also spread to friends and family (and then later to their friends and families), but quite slowly. For example, I would infect someone new only every month or two (just by normal household and social contact). That newly infected person would initially come down with the same herpangina-like sore throat symptom, and/or a gastrointestinal upset (gastroenteritis). Then in most cases, they would progress to similar long-term physical and mental symptoms, though usually much milder than mine. In fact only around 1 in every 10 individuals seem get the more severe long-term symptoms from this virus. In certain people (but not in my case) infection with this virus caused uncharacteristic and irrational outbursts of sustained aggression to appear a few weeks after catching it. For most people catching this virus, there seems to be a delay of a few weeks to a month before the first psychological and cognitive mental symptoms begin to manifest.
(As an aside, these psychological symptoms make me wonder whether a virulent virus such as this one may be responsible for the apparent worldwide rise in autism, since its psychological manifestations are not dissimilar to this condition. Certainly a lot of previously normal people who caught this virus have reported that their "mind is definitely not functioning right". And when this virus hits a whole family, as a result of the mental changes it induces, family members can become a little more emotionally distant from each other, with family relations in general turning to a functional pragmatism. Some people with this virus start to avoid social contact a little, becoming less interested in other people. I noticed within my own mind that I lost the pleasure that normally arises from seeing friends, and from making new friendships. I think this loss of the ability to take pleasure in company is one reason this virus makes socializing less appealing. And a second reason is the huge stress and mental tension this virus can cause, so you find you cannot relax in company.)
The next symptoms I experienced were more and more fatigue and sleepiness (hypersomnia). I seemed to fall asleep all the time, even when I was not that tired. Perhaps this virus affects an area of the brain that regulates sleep (such as the hypothalamus). As this sleepiness and fatigue progressed, wondered if this virus was beginning to precipitate chronic fatigue syndrome. A large loss of appetite appeared at this point also.
Four months after first catching this virus, a pins and needles or skin crawling sensation began to appear, first in my legs, but soon spreading across my entire body. There were constant sharp prickling sensations everywhere, which felt like they were located just beneath my skin. The severity of this prickling sensation varied from one day to the next. These type of sensations are called paresthesias. Also at this stage, I noticed the onset of a very mild loss of sensation and tactile sensitivity in the skin throughout my body.
The next symptom to arise was a severe loss of smell (a condition known as anosmia). During some weeks my sense of smell would return a bit, but then the next week it would more or less disappear again. (It continued in these up-and-down cycles for two years. However, after several years, my olfactory capabilities have slowly improved, but have still not returned to anywhere near their original form.)
My oral health was then affected: my gums, previously extremely healthy and pink, began receding quite noticeably. Lots of brown plaque was suddenly deposited on my previously perfectly white teeth. No matter how much I brushed it away, the plaque still came back. Along with this increased plaque formation, and in spite of frequent tooth brushing, new dental caries (tooth decay/cavities) suddenly appeared. Previous to this, my oral health was excellent. Therefore, it seems I developed periodontitis (receding gums) from this virus within a matter of months.
This gum disease may be a manifestation of the immune-weakening effect this virus creates in the body, allowing bacteria to thrive and colonize the oral region. In addition, gum tissue can be directly attacked by connective tissue-dissolving enzymes created in viral infections (enzymes such as MMP-9).
Next, I noticed my vision began to deteriorate. So I had my eyes tested; nothing appeared to be wrong with my eyes or my ophthalmic prescription. My vision seemed "smudged", rather than optically blurred. For example, looking at black text on a white page or computer screen, the letters are focussed, yet are slightly "smudged" on the white background.
About 12 to 18 months after first catching this virus, more strange symptoms manifested: a fine, crêpe paper-like wrinkling of the skin began appearing all over my body. This fine wrinkled skin tends to first appear on the tops of the hands (see picture). The skin also shows a slight red, blotchy quality beneath its surface (but this is barely noticeable). I am guessing that this wrinkling is the result of collagen or elastin loss or damage under the skin, caused by the viral infection (again, probably due to connective tissue-dissolving enzymes).
This crêpey wrinkling is certainly not normal skin aging; its appearance is distinct from normal aging, and moreover, it manifests very quickly, within a year or two. However, the strange skin wrinkling caused by this virus is usually only noticeable in people older than 30 or so; younger people don't seem to get it. And even for people 30 to 60 say, this crêpe paper-like wrinkling is only slight. In those older than around 60, though, this virally-induced skin wrinkling manifests more significantly, and in addition, in the more elderly the skin also becomes loose and sagging. Searching through known dermatological conditions, the closest fit to my skin's appearance is found in a disease called mid-dermal elastolysis.
More details of this skin wrinkling and skin sagging symptom are to be found on this page.
Another symptom that manifested at this 12 to 18 month stage was weak legs and a weak pelvic girdle. My pelvis-to-leg joints feel a little spongy and lacking in normal firmness. I suspect that the virus may be damaging the connective tissue in the ligaments of my pelvis, thus weakening the ligaments, and/or causing neuromuscular damage to the pelvic muscles. The result is a slightly less than sure walking gait, and a bit of a shuffling gait. This leg weakness and pelvic laxity is constant: it does not vary hour to hour, nor day to day. There is no loss of strength or spasm in the muscles either (except occasional cramps in my calf muscles). As we will see below, this weak legs symptom may a manifestation of some mild polymyositis. Differential diagnosis: in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), weak legs are a common symptom, but a variable one. In GAD the legs are fine one minute, and the next they suddenly get weak and can almost give way, due to nervous system fluctuations. But my case is not like GAD: my leg weakness is constant, never varied. And not that weak.
Beginning at the 18 month stage, weight gain appears, mainly in the belly area. This abdominal fat can appear even in people who were previously athletically lean and muscular. Note that the abdominal fat build-up can be caused by reduced growth hormone output, and/or the development of resistance to the hormones insulin or leptin (leptin resistance often arises in conditions of chronic inflammation).
After 2 or 3 years with this virus, further skin symptoms appear. In a V-shaped area on the upper chest just under the neck (the precise area exposed when wearing a V-neck jumper) the skin becomes a red/pink in color, and the skin texture in this area gets quite thick and oily/waxy. The color of this upper chest rash is that of a heliotrope rash. In addition, seborrheic keratosis (seborrheic warts) may appear on the skin: these are benign brown spots looking similar to moles. See this picture I took of one the seborrheic keratosis spots that appeared on my skin. My seborrheic keratosis was diagnosed by a dermatologist.
This virus generally appears to cause slight immune system weakening, and this can result in opportunistic infections arising, for example: fungal skin infections, urinary tract infections, ear infections, tooth infections with toothache, etc (all requiring antibiotics or antimicrobials to clear). The highest immunosuppression seems to occur in the first few years of infection with this virus; but after that, these opportunistic infections abate.
Several sudden heart attacks occurred in my group of 30+ friends and family soon after they were infected with this virus, one of which was fatal. All of these heart attacks happened in people who were previously healthy, with no prior heart conditions. One individual who caught this virus not only had a heart attack, but soon after also developed myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the heart sac) lasting for many months. I myself experienced an episode of aseptic meningitis a couple of years after catching this virus, which I think was most likely caused by this virus.
We will see below that the virus described on this website is most likely an enterovirus of some type, such as coxsackievirus B. Enteroviruses such as coxsackievirus B are very commonly associated with heart attacks (evidence of enterovirus infection is found in 40% of all fatal heart attacks), 1 as well as a known cause of myocarditis 1 and aseptic meningitis (enteroviruses such as coxsackievirus B cause 85% of all viral meningitis cases). 1
Certain individuals who are more severely affected by this virus can experience intense suicidal thoughts (suicidal ideation) every moment of every day, for several years. These constant suicidal thoughts are likely a result of the high levels of anhedonia (complete loss of the capacity for joy and pleasure), as anhedonia is known to trigger suicidal ideation. Knowing that this suicidal mind state is caused by the virus does not help mitigate its intensity. And although most people do not necessarily act on their suicidal ideations, the unrelenting presence of these thoughts shows just how profoundly this virus can disturb the normal brain function of some of the individuals it infects.
As with many respiratory infections, once one person catches this virus, it will spread to most other members of their household. However, this happens slowly: it takes a year or more before everyone in the household catches this virus. So clearly the contagiousness of this virus is relatively low. Nevertheless, in time, most of the household will have it, and will typically display either a chronically-congested nose/sinuses with thick viscous mucus (arises in around two-thirds of people), and/or a chronic sore throat (arises in one-third of people), plus some of the psychological symptoms such as more fatigue, slight loss of short-term memory, slight social withdrawal, and slight loss of motivation. Generally, once an individual catches this virus, they are not quite themselves anymore. However, there is a range of individual responses to this virus: about 10% of people contracting this virus experience very disturbing and distressing mental symptoms and personality changes; the rest are more lucky, and their mental symptoms are much milder.
Myself and my friends and family who were infected have had this virus for around a decade now, and judging by the permanence of the symptoms it causes, it is apparent that this viral infection is not cleared from the body and remains as a chronic low-level infection.
Summary of viral characteristics: this virus is a systemic, respiratory, gastrointestinal and neurological virus, which remains chronically in the body as a persistent infection, and can cause gastroenteritis, herpangina, chronic sore throat, a constantly congested nose/sinuses, heart attacks, heart inflammation, pelvic and leg muscle weakening, skin wrinkling, increased fatigue or chronic fatigue syndrome, and seems to have the ability to enter or affect the central nervous system, causing powerful and permanent mental state alterations such as mild memory problems, anhedonia, severe generalized anxiety disorder, and depression. The virus has a very fast incubation period of around about 12 hours. This rapid incubation has been reliably observed in several people when they initially caught this virus.
Summary of symptoms: The following table lists all the symptoms that were observed in myself and others as a result of this viral infection. Generally, I have only listed symptoms when at least two (and preferably more) people infected with this virus have manifested them — this is just to try to avoid the possibility of listing any co-incidental symptoms appearing in the infected people that were not in fact caused by this virus.
Cognitive decline — reduced attention, concentration and consciousness.
Depression and low mood.
Progressive sensorineural hearing loss in elderly people (loss of the ability to hear low frequency sounds, typically in the range 125 Hz to 1000 Hz).
Herpangina-like sore throat (during prodrome) where there are papules, but no blisters or ulcers.
Gastroenteritis (can appear for one day during prodrome).
Wrinkling of the skin all over the body, with unusual, fine-textured crêpe paper-like wrinkles.
Myocarditis, pericarditis, and sudden heart attack in the previously healthy.
Weak legs and hips — the legs and pelvic girdle feel a little weak and slack.
Increased hair loss (alopecia).
This Virus is Likely an Enterovirus
None of the 10 or so medical professionals I saw were able to identify this disease or the pathogen causing it, but one infectious disease expert I communicated with, Dr John Chia, said that, based on its symptoms, the pathogen I caught is very likely an enterovirus of some type, such as a coxsackievirus B. A detailed examination of why the symptoms of my virus match enterovirus is given on this page: Evidence Indicating This Virus is an Enterovirus.
Certainly this infectious pathogen is likely to be a virus (rather than a bacterium, fungus or protozoan), as three separate bacterial throat swab cultures my doctors conducted (one at a university hospital infectious disease center), showed negative results. Furthermore, stronger evidence that my pathogen is viral comes from its unusually rapid incubation period of around 12 hours; few bacteria can incubate this fast, and the bacterial species than can are easily detectable in a bacterial culture. Thus analysis of the incubation period suggests we are almost certainly dealing with a virus.
I was tested for series of different pathogens, and my test results showed I have high antibody levels to coxsackievirus B4, indicating I likely have an active ongoing infection with CVB4. So coxsackievirus B4 could well be the identity of the virus described on this website. My blood tests also showed I had some viral activity to coxsackievirus B2 (though not as much as CVB4), so CVB2 is another possible candidate for the identity of the virus described on this website.
Note: there are many causes of chronic sore throat; so your chronic sore throat is unlikely to be caused by this virus, unless you have very similar symptoms. So for anyone with a sore throat for a few days: don't panic, it is probably not this virus.
Note: gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), aka acid reflux, seems to be a bit of a wastebasket diagnosis given when the causes of a chronic sore throat cannot be found. So if your ENT specialist told you that your virally-triggered persistent sore throat is due to acid reflux, you may want to be a little skeptical of that diagnosis.
Further Information
You may wish to go to the Treatments page of this website, to see which supplements and drugs have proven beneficial in treating the symptoms of this virus.
If you are suffering from the severe constant anxiety symptoms that this virus seems to induce in certain people, the anti-anxiety treatments detailed on the Treatments page have proved highly effective in treating these symptoms for many people. For the fatigue and brain fog caused by this virus, I found high dose selenium on an empty stomach reasonably effective. Selenium has antiviral properties for coxsackievirus B.
If you are experiencing high levels of persistent fatigue and brain fog (trouble concentrating and thinking) after catching this virus, then you may have developed chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) from this virus, a condition which is detailed on the ME/CFS Info page.
The diagnoses for the main illness that I seem to have developed from this virus are: chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), generalized anxiety disorder, anhedonic depression, and possibly mild polymyositis.
Should any readers have the same symptoms themselves and wish to share their experiences, please leave a comment.

Any of you who knew John Durniak, former picture editor for TIME, the NY TIMES, and others, and former editor of POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY, will want to know about a Memorial Service for him. It will be held Dec. 1 on the 8th floor of TIME INC in NYC between 5 and 8 PM. John, a warm and wonderful man who influenced many of us with his insights, his enthusiasm for photography and photographers, and his unique approach to magazine photojournalism at a time when it was the bean-counters against the rest of us. And John, clearly a part of management but a free spirit anyway, always sided with the rest of us in his undying attempt to get the picture, at all costs, and to display it the best way possible. This was an editor who will be sorely missed. Dec 1, TIME Inc, 8th floor, 5PM to 8 PM Fred Ward

With two minutes left in the 2nd period and the game tied 2-2, the puck snuck between Hurricanes goalie Dan Ellis' legs and was trickling towards the net. Bergeron got back and pulled the puck off the goal line at the last second and tried to clear it when it went right to Rangers forward Carl Hagelin. Bergeron realized his mistake and Ellis was out of position so he dropped to his knees and made the stop. He then cleared the puck out of the zone, keeping the game tied with two great saves. Unfortunately for the Hurricanes they went on to lose to the Rangers 4-3 in overtime. [NHL.com]

A WOMAN was cut free from a car this week following a collision between two cars.
The crash happened on the A71 near Stonehouse on Tuesday afternoon.
Firefighters used hydraulic cutting equipment to rescue the casualty from the car.
Watch Manager Gilbert Rowan, the incident commander, said: "An appliance from Larkhall Community Fire Station was on scene within seven minutes and it was joined moments later by one from Strathaven.
"Crews arrived to find a woman trapped inside one of the vehicles and we immediately devised a road rescue plan to ensure her safe release.
"Hydraulic cutting equipment was used to remove the car's roof, which created space for her to be lifted clear.
"Another woman had already left the second vehicle before our arrival and firefighters provided her with oxygen. Both casualties were then taken to Wishaw General Hospital by ambulance."

Not Your Mother's Meat Loaf
We use a touch of ketchup here but this mixture of ground beef and veal is also seasoned with ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and pepper--a variation on a French seasoning mixture called "quatre epices" that is often used for paté. The meat loaf is baked in a pan lined with bacon, which adds flavor to the meat and ensures that it will not dry out as it bakes.
Total Time:
Level: Easy
Serves: 8
- 10 slice thin-cut bacon
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 onion
- 2 clove garlic
- 1½ lb. ground sirloin
- 1 lb. ground veal
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp. ketchup
- 2 slice firm white sandwhich bread
- ⅓ c. milk
- 1½ tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. ground ginger
- 1 tsp. dried thyme
- ½ tsp. Freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp. ground nutmeg
- .13 tsp. ground cloves
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Use 8 of the bacon slices to line a 9 x 5 x 3-inch glass loaf pan; set pan aside.
- In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over low heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes, until onion is tender. Transfer to a large bowl and cool to room temperature.
- Add sirloin, veal, eggs, mustard, ketchup, bread crumbs, milk, salt, ginger, thyme, pepper, nutmeg, and cloves to sautéed onion mixture. With your hands (messy, but the best way), mix meat loaf ingredients until well combined. Transfer mixture to prepared pan and pack down by banging it on work surface. Smooth top, then arrange bacon overhangs to cover top. Use 2 remaining bacon slices to cover loaf completely. Cover pan with a double layer of aluminum foil.
- Bake about 1 hour, or until juices run clear when loaf is tested with a knife. Uncover and bake 15 minutes more, or until bacon is lightly crisped. Let cool 10 minutes before inverting loaf onto serving platter with lip; discard juices. Or, cool to room temperature and refrigerate. To unmold chilled loaf, run a thin knife around the edge of pan and invert loaf onto platter.

Josh Holloway's impossible mission
Josh Holloway is joining Tom Cruise and the rest of the Mission: Impossible 4 team.
The Lost star is in final negotiations to star in the action spy thriller, his first major role since the hit TV show , produced and co-created by M:I 4 producer JJ Abrams, wrapped earlier this year, The Hollywood Reporter's Risky Business blog reports.
Heartthrob Josh would play a member of the Impossible Mission Force, the secret agent task force headed by Hollywood hunk Tom.
The film is to be directed by hit animator Brad Bird of The Incredibles and the award-winning Ratatouille.
The cast already includes Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton, Vladimir Mashkov and Ving Rhames.
Simon Pegg has just been confirmed to return as geeky scientist Benji Dunn in the film and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo's Michael Nyqvist is tipped to play the main villain.
JJ, who is producing with Tom and Paula Wagner, worked on the story with Andre Nemec and Josh Appelbaum, who have written the screenplay.
The production is scouting locations in Vancouver and Prague and is due to begin shooting in the next few weeks in Dubai, aiming for a December 2011 release date.
Josh spent six series playing hunky anti-hero Sawyer on Lost.
This will be his first major film role but he has appeared in a couple of indie movies - Stay Cool and Whisper. He reportedly had to turn down larger projects that overlapped with the TV show, which was filmed in Hawaii.

Posted 26 February 2014 - 08:44 AM Edited by GrandMaster Smith, 26 February 2014 - 08:58 AM.
This happened to me before off the eastern coast, I jumped off a rock into the water and instead of floating I just went straight to the sea floor. I ran around for a while but the ocean is just so f*cking huge it would've taken hours to circle the map.
Absolutely amazing down there, enormous 500 foot cliffs and drop offs, underwater canyons, tunnels and aqua flora. Lots of unique sights to be seen on the ocean floor.
Edit- some pictures to share
Underwater forest
Reminds me of the first few pre-release screenshots R* released of the seafloor.

Old thread, but still the same topic as I just discovered this glitch.
Not sure how it happened, but other players in the lobby also figured out this glitch was active so we all went exploring the underworld
I also discovered one neat aspect of this glitch: If you walk into the water you'll just walk on the ocean floor, but if you drive a vehicle in and wait for it to sink before getting out you'll swim with unlimited breath, until you go to crush depth (it hurts) or go to the surface and then you'll fall to the ocean floor and be on foot again.
edit: went to see the underwater crashed UFO then got bored and started a mission, the glitch was still active, then quit the mission and in a new lobby it's still active! Weird.
Posted 31 May 2014 - 10:14 AM
Its a pretty cool glitch but I can never make it happen on purpose..
Posted 31 May 2014 - 10:36 AM
It's definitely related to entering the water in a vehicle, has happened to me in helicopters, motorbikes and a taxi...
Posted 31 May 2014 - 10:57 AM
What a waste of map, they could of made the city bigger and not just have endless sea
Posted 31 May 2014 - 11:09 AM
Tried to show some random player in freeroam what was happening but they said they couldn't see it, then he killed me in a Titan, purposely crashing us into a building, so I paid him back several times. Me playing my new character, a level 7, him a level 43

No water mod + vehicles/helicopters is AWESOME.
Seems like a huge ass desert/grassy area with a sh*tload of cliffs and hills.
Just curious, what´s on the ground after ocean edge? Is it flat? It can´t be detailed to the infinite.
Posted 31 May 2014 - 02:34 PM
In my session when it happened it was only the female avatars that could walk on the ocean floor, the guys were swimming when they went under. I told them it was the mermaid update. They belived me for a while.
Posted 31 May 2014 - 02:37 PM
That's one awesome glitch. This tends to happen in games with water like this, I remember walking on the ocean floor in Mario Sunshine.
They should make something like this official. Add an oldschool diving suit like this that enables you to walk underwater:
Posted 31 May 2014 - 02:44 PM
Happens on foot too, my crew was messing around up by Trevors and decided to race across the Alamo Sea. 5 of us took off running into the water, and 3 of us that were closest to each other ended up on the bottom. The others couldn't do it, then randoms showed up and tried to kill us, lol. Found out most weapons work underwater, but if you fire an RPG run the other way quickly!
Posted 31 May 2014 - 04:15 PM
same thing happened to me when i jumped off the dock trying to get into my boat. no matter how many times i went back to land and back to water it wouldnt let me swim or get in the boat, kinda cool, but pretty f*cking annoying cause i wanted to get in a boat, lol! Not sure what caused it either, strange.

I don't want to get into that debate about the value of public consultation. Hence I didnt post this on the existing thread about Comp Plan.
In Montreal, Canada (population 1.7million) we are starting with the principle that public consultation is an important part of the Plan update-review process, or la révision du plan d'urbanisme as we call it here.
As a planning commissioner, (and AICP member, having previously worked as a planner in the public, private and non-profit sectors for several years), I want to provide some examples of how other cities have undertaken the publc consultation process, over and above formal Planning Commission hearings.
Where we are in the process right now is that staff is drafting an entire revised Urban Plan (aka City Plan, General Plan). The various chapters have been submitted to advisory committees made up of community groups and other interested parties. This has been done behind the scenes. So how do we get it out for public discussion?
Any good examples of getting useful public input at this stage?
Since there will be a draft document on the table, I think that the ranting and raving can be controlled somewhat by not lettting people rant for long before re-focusing the meeting on discussing the draft plan. But what other things have been done?

Dustin McGowan was once again impressive, touching 95-96 on the radar gun and helped the Jays cruise to another victory 6-3 over the Astro's. It will be nice when the Astro's become a permanent AL opponent. Read the full recap here.
The Blue Jays improved their Grapefruit League record to 11-2 with a 6-3 Grapefruit League win over the Astros on Thursday at Osceloa County Stadium.
Right-hander Dustin McGowan allowed just one unearned run in his three innings and has now pitched five innings with one unearned run this spring. Jordan Schafer led off with a walk and went to third when catcher Travis d'Arnaud's pickoff attempt sailed into right field. He scored when Angel Sanchez grounded out.
The Blue Jays jumped on Astros starter Zach Duke for a pair of runs in each of the first two innings.
Up next: Left-hander Ricky Romero will be making his third Grapefruit League start when the Blue Jays return to Florida Auto Exchange Stadium for a 1:05 p.m. ET game against the Rays. Chad Jenkins, Jason Frasor and Drew Carpenter are also expected to get work. This could be the first time the Rays face former teammate Jose Molina, who signed with Tampa Bay as a free agent after last season.

MEMBERS of the public will have the chance to see the new plans for Carluke's historic High Mill at a meeting later this week.
Being staged in Kirkton Church Hall this Thursday, the event will give those present the chance to look at the new plans for the Mill.
The ages-old building has fallen into a state of disrepair over the past few years.
Christine Warren is a member of the High Mill Steering Group, which is part of Carluke Development Trust.
She said: "We are hoping for a really good response from the public because it's a big project for the town.
"It could make such a big difference to Carluke. If we can get it off the ground, it would be a huge boost."
The High Mill public meeting will be held in Kirkton Church Hall on Thursday, April 10, at 7.30pm.
For more on this story pick up a copy of this week's Carluke Gazette, which is in the shops now.

I suppose it should not surprise me one bit. I remember when I was young, my mother liked to create wreaths for the christmas decorations. And for all that I saw them, I never realized that the 'dead' but very pliable sticks which were woven to make those wreaths, were suited for uses other than circles! Artist Patrick Dougherty demonstrated with exceptional finesse and on a large scale none-the-less that it is in fact possible. And beautiful too.
These often extra-human sized shapes and forms at once blend into the landscape while hinting that perhaps they have been placed rather than grown. The forms have something in them- namely the works 'Doin' the Locomotion' and 'Na Hale 'o waiawi'- which is very… haunting.

MLB Prospects Teams Should Trade ASAP While Their Values Are MaximizedMarch 27, 2013
As we approach the start of the season, I don't have to tell you how many of the top prospects in baseball will see their value plummet over the next several months as they fail to produce at a new level.
Most prospects don't reach their full potential and often times don't even come close. They are top prospects because they have such extremely high ceilings. Their "floor" is often just as low, though, as their ceiling is high.
The problem is that their own organizations can't even tell you how much of their potential they will reach, so it's a crapshoot deciding whether to hold on to their young talent or sell them off before they hit the wall.
If we go back five years, we see that guys like Joba Chamberlain, Andy LaRoche and Travis Snider were ranked among the top 20 prospects in baseball. Not one of those guys has much value now, although their teams could've made a steal of a deal by shopping them before their value decreased.
Here's a look at a few prospects who might have already reached their peak value and might be more valuable to their teams as trade chips before they're exposed at an advanced level in 2013.
Billy Hamilton, CF, Cincinnati Reds
Fantasy baseball geeks will hate me for saying this, but Hamilton is no sure thing to be a big league regular just because he's the fastest guy in the game. That speed, and his record-breaking 155 stolen bases in a minor league season, has everyone in the baseball world anticipating the 22-year-old's arrival in the majors.
What people tend to forget is that there are plenty of other skills needed to achieve major league success. While Hamilton appears to have the on-base ability to make him a premier leadoff hitter, there's no way of knowing if he can continue to get on base enough to give him value despite a lack of power.
Keep in mind that Dee Gordon, a similar player with blazing speed, hasn't been able to stick in the majors because he can't get on base enough and doesn't have enough power to offset that. His on-base percentage in 143 big league games is .299. In 405 minor league games, Gordon has a .354 on-base percentage.
So just because Hamilton has a career .364 on-base percentage in the minors doesn't mean that will carry over to the majors. Just ask Dee Gordon and the Dodgers.
Mike Olt, 3B, Texas Rangers
As a power-hitting third baseman who hit 28 homers in Double-A last season, Olt has a ton of value to teams searching for their "Third Baseman of the Future". On the Rangers, he's blocked by Adrian Beltre for at least three more seasons, and the other positions he can play—first base, left field, right field—aren't considered as premier a position as the hot corner.
Thus, his value to the Rangers is less than other teams that have an opening at third base. His 5-for-33 performance during his first big league action didn't help either.
The 24-year-old can probably put up huge numbers in the Triple-A Pacific Coast League for a few months, and then Texas will have to make a decision. Bring him up to Texas as a utility man and risk his value decreasing if he struggles again, or trade him while he's destroying Triple-A pitching and receive a nice haul in return.
Anthony Rendon, 3B, Washington Nationals
The 22-year-old has barely been able to stay on the field during his short and injury-riddled pro career. Most think he'll put up big numbers once he does stay on the field, as he showed during an impressive stint in major league camp this spring (12-for-32, 4 HR, 4 2B, 11 RBI).
With talented players ahead of him at every position on the diamond in the majors, Rendon will have to bide his time in the minors while the Nats decide what the long-term plan will be. Switching positions hardly gives him a better shot considering that all eight starters are locked up for at least the next two seasons.
If the plan is to trade him, they might want to do it sooner than later in case he struggles in the upper minors and his value decreases. The Nats don't currently have any holes on their roster, so a rare prospect-for-prospect trade might be an interesting option for them to consider.
George Springer, OF, Houston Astros
If there's a highly ranked prospect most likely to get exposed in the upper minors, it would probably be Springer. The toolsy center fielder can run really fast and hit the ball really, really far. That's when he makes contact, though, which isn't nearly enough (156 strikeouts in 534 at-bats between Double-A and Hi-A in 2012).
At just 23, his upside is still high enough where several teams would overlook his rawness to add such an athletic center fielder to their farm systems.
If General manager Jeff Luhnow, who was hired after Springer was taken in the 2011 draft, doesn't like his chances of making the proper adjustments, then he might want to start asking around and finding out which teams do believe in him.
Michael Wacha, SP, St. Louis Cardinals
Despite his early career dominance (32.2 IP, 2 ER, 5 BB, 55 K between Rookie Level GCL, Hi-A, Double-A and spring training), Wacha is projected as a midrotation starter in the majors.
This is not a bad thing, especially when he's a good bet to reach that potential and shouldn't spend much more than another season in the minors.
If he happens to have an easy time with hitters in the upper minors in 2013, his value will remain high and the Cardinals could probably get top value for him. Or they can wait until he gets to the majors and shows everyone that the scouts were exactly right about him being a midrotation starter, which is of less value than a top pitching prospect.

The Rays' wives take on the Marlins' wives today at the Trop in their third annual charity softball game, the Rays on behalf of Autism Speaks and Marlins for Shake-a-Leg Miami. The Rays' wives blew out the Marlins' 14-2 in Miami last year, with the Marlins winning 6-1 in 2011. The Rays have added a lot of newcomers, including RHP Jake Odorizzi's wife, Clarissa. Smiled Odorizzi: "I'm expecting some big things."
Honoring the troops
In honor of Memorial Day, the Rays and Marlins — as well as other major-league clubs — will wear specifically designed caps and jerseys featuring an authentic military digital camouflage design. MLB will donate 100 percent of its net proceeds from retail sales of the caps and jerseys to Welcome Back Veterans.

Mahoning County Juvenile Court Advisory Board Golf Classic sponsors and organizers are preparing for the Golf Classic Tournament on Friday, June 22nd at the Kennsington Golf Course. The tournament will feature a scramble format beginning at 9 a.m. Special events for the Classic will include a skill hole contest, skins, longest putt and drive and a Hole in One Contest featuring a car provided by Bob and Chuck Eddy. Prizes will be awarded for First Place Team, Second Place Team and Third Place Team.
The Mahoning County Juvenile Court Advisory Board, a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization, consists of community members who advise the court on community concerns as well as maintain the policies and mandates of the Mahoning County Juvenile Court. All proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Juvenile Court's programs. Due to state and county budget cuts many programs and services have been curtailed, the proceeds will assist in continuing to provide needed services to the youths and families of our community.
Judge Theresa Dellick's programs have been recognized both nationally and statewide for their effectiveness. In addition, the Board intends to award scholarships to graduates of the Mahoning County High School, a school which has provided second chances to many students.
The deadline for entering the tournament is Monday, June 4. For any questions or to have the golfer brochure information mailed or e-mailed, contact Laura J. Lonardo at 330-740-2244 ext. 6490, 330-233-1417 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

In 1891, the administrative centre of the Pahang State Government was relocated from the district of Pekan to Lipis. Although this relocation plan was temporary, it took more than 64 years before the administrative centre of Pahang Darul Makmur was finally relocated to Kuantan in 1955.
In selecting the appropriate location for the administrative centre of Pahang, the State Government focused on two areas namely Temerloh / Mentakab and Kuantan. Due to the uneven landscape in Temerloh / Mentakab which requires large expenditures for development, it was then decided that Kuantan will be the capital of Pahang.
The administrative centre of the State of Pahang was officially relocated to Kuantan on Saturday (27 August 1955) and was officiated by HRH Sultan Abu Bakar Ri'ayatuddin Al Muadzam Shah Ibni Al Marhum Al Sultan Abdullah Al Mu'tasim Billah, DK., SIMP., DK., SIMP., DK(Brunei)., DK(Johor)., DK(Perak)., SPDK(Sabah)., GCMG.
From that day, effort has been made to construct a State Government Administrative Complex. An administrative complex, known as Wisma Sri Pahang was completed in 1970 and on 28 February 1970, the Pahang State Government Administrative Centre officially relocated to the new complex.
The administration of the Pahang State Secretary Office was helmed by the State Secretary. The appointment of the State Secretary is in accordance to the Pahang State Constitution. The first Pahang State Secretary was Dato' Setia Raja Abu Samah Bin Haji Ali. He was appointed on 1 February 1948 and served until 2 August 1952.

Gov. Pat Quinn holds a sizable early advantage over state Comptroller Dan Hynes in a Chicago Tribune/WGN-TV poll that shows Democratic voters satisfied with the governor's performance since the disgraced Rod Blagojevich was booted from the job.
And as Republicans look at Blagojevich's scandalous downfall as a chance to resurrect their fortunes, an old face is leading the field: former Attorney General Jim Ryan, who is seeking redemption after losing to Blagojevich in 2002. Ryan, whose last name proved problematic back then, has the backing of more than a quarter of Republican voters in the Feb. 2 primary, though even more are undecided.

If you don't usually have time to tune into PhoneDog Live on Fridays, this is the week in which you'll want to make time. I'm proud to introduce a fun show we'll be hosting this Friday, January 6th called The Ultimate Fanboy War. You guys are passionate about technology and you you are willing to defend your OS of choice against anyone who dares try to tear it down. I know; I read your comments. So I decided to give you all a stage for your defense. Think you have what it takes to defend or trash an OS against an equal opponent?
During this week's show, I'll have volunteers call in, two volunteers at at time. Those two will battle it out to see who has the most convincing argument. Do you think iOS is "garbage"? Do you think Android is the ultimate OS? Or do you think Windows Phone is where it's at and Android is overrated? This is the place to take your stand. The Ultimate Fanboy War will take place during this week's PhoneDog Live on Friday at 5 p.m. Eastern Time. The show is an hour long. The length of each debate and the length of this segment will depend on how many volunteers we have. Volunteers will be chosen before the show in order to keep things organized and to be safe. I don't want any clever jokers. Below are details on how to volunteer as well as the rules. If you have any questions, leave a comment below.
To Volunteer
Send an e-mail to email@example.com with your name, age, which OS you will be defending and which OS you are prepared to go up against. (If you don't have a lot of knowledge about webOS, I won't put you against a webOS fan. That wouldn't be fair.) Tell me how much experience you have with each OS (how long you've used it, which phone you've used, etc.). Also, give a few examples of the points you will use in your argument to defend or oppose an OS.
We want fans (and non-fans) of ALL OSes in this debate. So Android fans, iOS fans, webOS fans, BlackBerry fans, Windows Phone fans, heck, even Symbian fans - feel free to volunteer.
If you are chosen for the debate, you will receive an e-mail with more details and further instructions.
There is no age limit, but you must be able to articulate your opinions clearly and without using bad language. Extensive cursing, unnecessary personal insults, or extreme yelling will not be tolerated. The debate will be high-energy and passionate, of course, but it will not be a shouting match.
You must have knowledge of and experience with the OS you will be defending and/or opposing. This is for your own good. I'd hate for you to be embarrassed by someone who brings out a feature or aspect that you didn't know about. You don't have to be a hacker or developer, but you have to have an all-around knowledge of the OS.
You must stay on topic, that being OS vs. OS. If you stray from the topic, you will be warned. After two warnings, your call will be disconnected.
We will be using Skype so you must have the software and an account. This also means that you must have a working microphone and a reliable internet connection. A webcam is preferred but if there aren't enough volunteers with a webcam then we'll do it audio-only. Volunteer even if you don't have a webcam.
The show will be on Friday, January 6th at 5 p.m. Eastern time. You must be free for the entire hour.
Before the show, we will do a run-through test to make sure that everyone's audio and video (if necessary) setup is working properly. You must be available for this test.
I will be moderating the discussion. If things get out of hand or you break the first rule above, I'll give you two warnings. If it continues, you will be disconnected immediately.
The length of each debate will be determined by the number of volunteers but we want to fit as many volunteers as possible into the show. Each debate will be between two fans.
Don't be afraid to volunteer! If you follow PhoneDog.com and other tech sites, then you probably have enough knowledge. If you have any reservations about yourself, let us know in your e-mail and we'll make a decision.

Vejalpur-Juhapura (www.vejalpurnagarpalika.com), an areaĀspread over 12.5 square kilometres, has beenĀa hotbed of communal trouble since the 1980s.
Vejalpur has a population ofĀaround 85,000, mostlyĀHindu. Adjoining Juhapura is a densely populated area with around 32,000 mainly Muslim residents.
Here, Hindus and Muslims become suspicious of each other and get ready to fight as soon as communal tension grips any part of Gujarat.
It is not hatred for the other that makes them do this. It is fear.
Rumours spread like a disease in these parts, where the two communities have practically been forced into ghettos. Local Hindus,Āfor instance,Ārarely cross into Juhapura, and even term the line dividing the area comprising 1,700 housing colonies 'the India-Pakistan border.'
Suhas PatelĀ(first name changed on request), aged 30, a resident of Vejalpur, was part of a mob that wanted to attack Muslims to pre-empt an attack on theirĀproperties on February 28, 2002, a day after the Godhra carnage. Since that day, the simple villager is a changed man.
Patel, in his own words, recountsĀthe churning that went on within his mind, whichĀlead him to first join the mob and then to leave it. The second of a series marking the second anniversary of the Godhra incident and its aftermath:
Part I: 'How can I forgive them?'
I have done my master's in communication from Gujarat Vidyapeeth, which was founded by Gandhiji. I graduated inĀagro-economy from the Gram Bharti Institute, which is run admirably by the Gandhians of Gujarat.
Being a farmer's son,ĀI did not have much money or opportunity in life. So in 1998, I migrated to Ahmedabad from my village inĀnorth Gujarat. After living with a few relatives, I rented a home in Vejalpur in 2000. I paid a modest rent of Rs 1,200 a month. I did not have aĀcell phone, telephone, cable television or a vehicle. I was earning less than Rs 4,000 at that time. I had a refrigerator, but I would switch it off at night to save on electricity.
On February 27, 2002, when Godhra happened, I was in my office. I heard the news of the burning of the train at Godhra very late in the evening. It was shocking, but it did not make me angry. I don't have any ill feelings towards Muslims. My views have been neutral on the issue of casteism or communalism. IĀthought some hardened criminals must be behind Godhra.
I went home late that evening and even slept well. On my way home, I did see burnt vehicles and properties, but in Ahmedabad that is not something new when communal tension prevails.
Since I did not have a television set I was unaware of the profound impact of the event on the society around me. To save money I was not even subscribing to a newspaper, so I was unaware that the Vishwa Hindu Parishad had called a bandh on February 28.
It was only on the 28th, whenĀI heardĀthreats and noises and slogan-shouting by VHP workers to close the shops of my area, that I understood the seriousness of the Godhra incident. Since I was a newcomer in Vejalpur I did not know that a large number of Muslims lived in the vicinity of my society. Believe it or not, I had no clue at all of the presence of Muslims in my neighbourhood.
That day my neighbours told me how 'horrible' the adjoining Juhapura area is. The MuslimsĀare a threat to us, they said. I did not go to office that day. Rather, I had an afternoon nap.
I was woken up by some neighbours who informed me that the situation was very, very tense. They said the Muslims of Juhapura had gathered "with gleaming swords" in the vicinity of the "talab [lake]".
I and my wife along with the neighbours went to the terrace on the fourth floor.ĀMyĀson was staying with my parents in those days.
Everybody on the terrace was tense. Women were crying. Frightened children were watching the scenario with interest.
What we saw from the terrace is unforgettable. I was jolted. On one side, some 2,000 Muslims were provoking us with their swords. Imagine! Some 1,000 swords in the air! They were slowly coming forward. On the other side anĀalmost equal number of Hindus were equipped with lathis [staves]Āand iron rods and were abusing the Muslims.
The swords of Juhapura were glinting in the sun. It reminded me ofĀthe scene from the Mahabharat at Kurukshetra. I saw hundreds of Muslim children with swords in their hands. How could I not get affected?
Both sides were moving closer every 20 or 30 minutes. It was scary. All of us on the terrace were watching. We were sure thatĀit was nowĀa matter of time before some 300 people would be killed.
We too could have been attacked if the Muslims were allowed to cross the lake area. My building was just 100 metres away from the battlefield. In those two hours, both sides were ready to strike. We did not know who would strike first. Only one police van was parked there.
As the hours passed, the crowds swelled. By 4 pm the mob on each side had 5,000 people. Both sides were shouting slogans, throwing challenges,Āand inciting their own people. Outside our building, Kshatriya men and women who live in the interiors of Vejalpur and not on the 'border' like me were out on the roads. They were challenging our masculinity and provoking us to come down and join the mob in the lake area. They argued that if the Muslims went on the rampage, we would be the first victims because we were living near the entry points ofĀthe Hindu area.
I was hesitant.
Around that time a constable died when some Muslims fired on him. We watched as he was taken away in a police van. That was most frightening. A man in khaki getting killed inĀfiring by the Muslims had a devastating impact on all of us on the terrace. Now we knew the police would not come to help us.
All the male membersĀof my society and neighbouring societies jumped to the next lane where construction work was going on. We took out some 800 iron rods from the site and joined the crowd.
We had to fight for our safety. We did not think it wrong.
When I joined the mob I saw many darbars [Kshatriyas] whose homes had been lootedĀin the previous riots. They were most vocal this time.
But as I stood there with an iron rod in my hand, Suhel, a computer engineer and a friend of mine, passed by. He saw me and screamed, "Arre Suhasbhai tame pann? [Suhas, you too?]"
His remark shook me. He knew I had been an ace charkha spinner in college. Till I was 21 I had never spoken to a single woman besides my mother. I was so shy that I never came out of my hostel room on weekdays. The first girl I spoke to was Radha, who came to learn how to spin yarn on the charkha. It was compulsory in the Vidyapeeth.
Suhel had studied with me. HisĀsurprise at seeing me in the mob with an iron rod shamed me. Oh God! What was I doing? Why did I take up arms? Why am I on the street?
I quietlyĀslipped away to a corner and hid the rod under some garbage. I then went back home. I could not get over the feeling of shame. I am too shy to hit anyone. That is just not possible. I was feeling choked.
My wife was still shivering. SheĀfearedĀan attack on our home by the Muslims.
Much later, more policemen arrived and dispersed the mobs without any casualties. But I could not sleep that night.
The next day I took my wife back to my village. For a full two months we did not stay in the VejalpurĀhome.
Even in my village Rahimbhai's house was burnt down. He was the lone Muslim in my village. Without any protestĀhe walked out andĀstoodĀalong with the Hindus watching hisĀhouse burning. His life was saved by thoseĀvery miscreants.
Such aĀcool and cruelĀact!
Since the last two years I have been thinking about the Muslims. I am afraid. I have seen them and even their children with those gleaming swords. Who knows where those swords are now?
I am also afraid becauseĀmy wife fears the people of Juhapura. I don't hate them. I can't, because I know well that there are good and bad people in all communities.
I feelĀgood Gujaratis are suffering from anxieties and fears because of ghettos. No ghettos should be allowed to form in the cities and villages. I am sure that isĀthe root cause of the rift between us. In my area, Hindus and Muslims never interact, never meet. Who can be a bridge between us? Who will takeĀthe lead?
I also think my future is insecure because the Bharatiya Janata Party has made us conscious about Muslims. They have alerted us: 'You are a Hindu. He is a Muslim.' They have sown poison in our minds, now you can't expect a harvest of compassion and love.
My only worry is what will happen to our young generation?
Suhas Patel spoke to Contributing Editor Sheela Bhatt

Tottenham Hotspur are known to be trying to sign the top young talent in the Football League.
Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony has confirmed to BBC Radio Cambridgeshire that Tottenham Hotspur are interested in one of his players.
Spurs have taken a keen notice of top Football League talent since Mauricio Pochettino has been placed in charge, and they had great success after signing Dele Alli from Milton Keynes Dons.
Tottenham are now seemingly keen to repeat that deal, and MacAnthony claims that they made enquiries over a Posh player back in November.
"In fairness to Tottenham they do [have faith in the Football League]," MacAnthony said. "They bought Dele Alli and they also enquired about one of our players in November.
"The reason they are doing that is because they have David Pleat working under Daniel Levy, who is a big fan of the Football League. He made the Dele Alli deal happen and he would have made another deal happen, possibly, with one of ours.
"He knows the value that is in the Football League."
The possible candidate
Reading between the lines, Tottenham's interest was almost certainly in Jermaine Anderson.
The England youth international won the Football League's young player of the month award in November, after scoring five goals in four matches from a central midfield position.
The 19-year-old has played a key part for Posh this season, and MacAnthony has already admitted that he would have left the ABAX Stadium in January, if not for injury.
Anderson is set to miss the rest of the season after damaging his knee ligaments, meaning that any potential move has been blocked.
Anderson has already been compared with Alli by current Posh boss Graham Westley, as reported by the BBC, and it remains to be seen whether Spurs will come back in for the midfielder once he returns to fitness.

JD 110 drive belt replacement
Posted October 10, 2016 - 04:08 PM
Posted October 10, 2016 - 04:45 PM
deere should have it
Posted October 10, 2016 - 04:50 PM
The best place is just to order it from your local dealer. Which in your case is Deere Country. The drive belts on these have a special angle to the sides that aftermarket belts don't copy. The special angle is needed for proper operation of the variator. So i highly suggest you buy OEM. You will want to replace both belts as a set and then perform the variator adjustment procedure. Doing so can really bring some performance back to these machines. If you need help looking up the part numbers in deere system shout out.
But to be the devils advocate it is possible to look up the belts dimension and find generic belts. Or take the deere numbers to a place like napa, and they should be able to cross reference them.
I suggest you buy deere ones however .It will be along time to you need to replace them again.
Posted October 10, 2016 - 05:06 PM
I will second using only OEM belts for the drive on these and the 200 series tractors. I have tried the aftermarket belts and they can make the adjustment procedure frustrating. Get both belts from Deere, and do the whole procedure once and forget about it for many years. Mike

Researching Prostate Cancer
In the United States, prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer among men, second only to lung cancer in the number of deaths it causes. The likelihood of a man developing prostate cancer at some point in his life is high–about 16 percent. Each year, 200,000 American men are diagnosed with prostate cancer and 27,000 die from it. Because so many prostate tumors are slow growing, however, survival rates are excellent when this form of cancer is detected early.
Investigators at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center's Peter Nelson Lab are working to uncover how prostate cancer forms. Our goal is to create tools to diagnose the onset of prostate cancer and also help develop more effective therapies for treating this disease. Our 28 team members come from a variety of research backgrounds and include medical doctors, clinicians, scientists and technicians.
We welcome your inquiries. For research collaboration proposals, please contact Pete Nelson at firstname.lastname@example.com. For internships and other staffing inquiries, contact Alex Moreno at firstname.lastname@example.com.
