Probably due to it's two monster teeth.
That plus recoil of Ace is lesser than Slash, based on observation. Meaning that it also has less self-Burst risk due to lower/lesser recoil potential.

What exactly is Phytotherapy, you may be asking? And, why do I need it? Well firstly, don't get confused by the name, phytotherapy is just another word for medical herbalism. The word 'phytotherapy' is derived from the greek "phyt (ón)" meaning plant and therapy from the Greek "therapeia" meaning "healing" or "curing".
Phytotherapy starts to bridge the gaps between ancient, traditional herbal practices and modern medical science. It's used in many developed countries and is often referred to as western herbalism, but it has it's roots as far back as the neanderthal period! With over 50% (and growing) of pharmaceutical drugs being directly derived from plants, science is catching up to the fact that herbs have value in more than just pretty visuals in our gardens or old wive's tales.
Phytotherapists are trained to diagnose and treat a broad range of diseases and includes disease prevention along with dispensing of herbal medicines. In South Africa, Phytotherapy is a registered profession. To qualify as a Phytotherapist requires five year's study at the University of the Western Cape. So far this is the only university in South Africa which offers a recognised course in Phytotherapy. Once qualified, the person can register with the Allied Health Professions Council of South Africa and treat patients.
Almost any condition can be treated with herbal medicine. In some cases herbal medicine alone might not be sufficient and can form part of a multi-disciplinary treatment for serious, life-threatening illnesses, providing organ support and nurturing and helping to improve quality of life. Herbal medicine can treat acute and chronic conditions and can be effective for almost all disease states, from the common cold to rheumatoid arthritis.
Going to see a phytotherapist is very similar to going to see a GP, but can be quite a bit more in-depth. Your first consultation will take approximately 1-1.5 hours. During that time a complete, detailed history is taken and a medical examination conducted. from there the practitioner will try to establish a cause of the problem (if necessary, through blood tests, scans etc). After which diet and lifestyle advice will be given and herbal medication will be formulated and dispensed.
Phytotherapy believes heavily on individualised care, so you know that each visit will be unique and completely individualised just for you!
If you would like to have a consultation, do not hesitate to contact me or visit the South African Association of Herbal Practitioners website to find your nearest registered practitioner.

Wittenberg hasn't earned many style points with its four-game winning streak, but style points never won anybody a conference title.
The Tigers beat Wabash 50-45 on Wednesday, and coach Bill Brown said Friday, "It was an ugly win, and we've had a few of those. Those are better than losing and playing great."
The victory kept the Tigers (12-4) in shouting distance of first place going into today's 4 p.m. home game against Hiram. They're 5-2 in the North Coast Athletic Conference, trailing No. 8 Wooster (7-0) and No. 9 Ohio Wesleyan (6-1). Those teams meet today for the first time in Delaware.
Wittenberg won in Crawfordsville, Ind., despite making 10-of-22 free throws and committing twice as many turnovers (14-7) as the Little Giants. It was the second straight game the Tigers have trailed at halftime and then seized control in the opening minutes of the second half. Wabash scored 16 points in the second half.
"I thought we did a much better job contesting shots in the second half," Brown said. "I don't want to take credit for their abysmal shooting, but we had something to do with it.
"The next thing was Scott Masin just really carried us down the stretch, and we got timely plays from other people. Cam Walton doesn't show up in the box score, but he had three steals, and they were just really good basketball plays. He was just in the right place, and not everyone always is. He was huge."
Masin has become a double-double machine. He had three in the first 10 games and has had five in the last six. He had 19 points and 13 rebounds against Wabash.
Masin ranks sixth in the conference in scoring (15.3) and third in rebounding (8.9). He's been wearing a mask most of the season to protect the nose he broke in December.
"It's been very impressive," Brown said. "He's very fit. He's very strong. It comes back primarily to his desire. He had three offensive rebounds on the same possession at Wabash with crowds of people around him. Maybe on the first two putbacks he took some contact before he finally got the call, but he showed great desire and determination."
Masin is a big reason the Tigers rank second in the NCAC in rebounding margin (plus 8.0).
"We started off great in that area, and we had a little bit of a lull," Brown said. "Stat-wise, we've done a really good job, but it's been countered a bit by empty possessions and turnovers."

Seniors often dream of entering their retirement years with plenty of money. However, this isn't the case for many older adults living today. Elderly people may face the following financial issues.
1. Paying Down Debt
After covering the costs of raising a family, such as paying for college or purchasing a house, seniors often have many outstanding debts as they enter retirement. Whether your loved one is covering student loan or has an overwhelming balance on credit cards, paying back these debts along with the associated interest may be challenging. Help your parent identify which debts should be paid off first and help him or her budget for these payments.
When it comes to maintaining a high quality of life, older adults may need more than just a few suggestions on how to manage their finances. Seniors who want to remain healthy as they age can benefit in a variety of ways when they receive professional senior care. Westport, CT, Home Care Assistance is here to help your loved one accomplish daily tasks, prevent illness, and focus on living a healthier and more fulfilling life.
2. Falling for Financial Scams
For seniors on fixed incomes, even a single scam can drain their bank accounts. Financial scams that target older adults take many different forms, and you must be alert to the latest strategies criminals use to rob seniors of their money. For example, medical scams involve people coming to the door offering devices that are overpriced or ineffective. Talk to your parent about common scams and ways to avoid them. Then, monitor your loved one's accounts for signs of suspicious activity.
3. Managing an Unexpected Health Issue
Older adults may be unprepared to handle the rising costs of medical care. Ideally, your loved one's health insurance should cover many common needs, but you can also take steps to minimize the possibility of him or her having a major health issue. Work with your parent to develop a plan for living a healthier lifestyle. Cutting back on unhealthy foods and exercising more often can prevent several health issues and keep healthcare costs low.
Certain age-related conditions can make it more challenging for seniors to age in place safely and comfortably, but Westport live-in care experts are available around the clock to help seniors manage their health. Whether your loved one is living with dementia or is recovering from a stroke, you can trust the professional live-in caregivers from Home Care Assistance to enhance his or her quality of life.
4. Not Understanding Investments
Many seniors today have retirement plans that are affected by swings in the stock market. Alternatively, some older adults may be afraid to take risks with investments if they have experienced the aftereffects of the Great Depression. Either way, your loved one may benefit from working with a financial advisor and taking advantage of the market swings without losing a substantial amount of money.
5. Keeping Up with Payments
When a senior has memory loss, trying to pay bills on time may become a major challenge. Once a payment is missed, late fees and other penalties can quickly add up. Suggest setting up auto payments to help your parent with paying bills each month.
6. Covering Housing Costs
In the past, seniors used to go to a nursing home once they hit a certain age. However, this is no longer necessary for many older adults who have options such as hiring professional caregivers. If your loved one is concerned about the cost of housing, discuss ways to reduce the burden. Having a caregiver stay overnight may prove to be more cost-effective than trying to move to a completely new residence.
Families who find it difficult to care for their aging loved ones without assistance can benefit greatly from professional respite care. Westport, CT, family caregivers who need a break from their caregiving duties can turn to Home Care Assistance. Using our proprietary Balanced Care Method, our respite caregivers can encourage your loved one to eat well, exercise regularly, get plenty of mental and social stimulation, and focus on other lifestyle factors that promote longevity. To learn about our high-quality in-home care services, give us a call at 203-955-1915 today.

Spain's SmackDown Report and Review for February 12th 2019: Kofi Kingston, You're My Hero
We're getting deeper into WrestleMania season, and the big nights keep on coming. Last night, Becky Lynch got the Daniel Bryan treatment, which involves the McMahons wagging their fingers at you whilst at the same time promising a main event payday. She also got suspended, though that most likely means she'll be driving a beer truck into the middle of a segment and dousing everyone with Guinness.
Jesus, the smell alone.
Charlotte's teeth are spooky-white
We open a replay of Becky getting suspended. If she's not paid AJ Styles to cripple McMahon on SmackDown, then she's not the woman I know she is.
Following this, Charlotte Flair makes her way to the ring to be a complete dick about this. And the worst bit is, I'll still be really pissed if the WrestleMania match becomes a triple threat. Charlotte crows about how WrestleMania is her destiny and just as good as a father's love and attention growing up, then mocks Becky for hitting anyone with power over her. Which, to be fair, isn't the worst lesson to learn from this experience.
Charlotte tries to put the blame for missing Survivor Series on Becky, which is outright erasure of Nia Jax's inability to wrestle without injuring someone, saying that she's always had to pick up Becky's slack. She flies a little close to the sun by referencing the belief that she's Vince's favourite, but all that gets you these days are endless bouts with Brock Lesnar and, eventually, leukemia. Charlotte insists that she's the smart choice for a WrestleMania main event, promising that the crowd will be chanting "this is awesome" in the end.
I can't remember the last time that happened on a non-NXT pay-per-view, so I already don't believe it.
Charlotte dedicates her victory to Becky Lynch, then finally remembers that she's supposed to be focusing on Ronda as well. She makes a veiled threat about Ruby Riott becoming Women's Champion and facing Charlotte at WrestleMania, and you shut your dirty whore mouth.
The IIconics work smarter, not harder
Here's Carmella, wearing a fur coat that cannot have come from any animal, or at least any healthy animal. She's joined by Naomi, with Absolution and the IIconics joining them in the ring…hang on, this feels familiar. But we had Charlotte referencing the suspension from yesterday…it's like WWE's gaslighting me, which is probably an improvement on their current business strategy.
Okay, so this is about which team has to enter the Chamber first. Mandy and Carmella start off, with Mandy's cuckolding hand catching the Princess square across the jaw. Sonya tags in, quickly getting bamboozled by Carmella before Naomi tags in. So far, the IIconics have the best strategy of being not legally allowed to be pinned. Naomi works over DeVille, almost getting the pin as Mandy apparently couldn't give a fuck if her team enters the Chamber first.
Carmella tags back in, and suddenly Sonya remembers that she used to kick ass for a living, taking advantage. She tries to use her MMA skills against Carmella, and apparently dance-fighting is the perfect counter for Mixed Martial Arts. Brock Lesnar vs. Fandango: book that shit. Mandy gets tagged in, decides she wants none of it and runs. Carmella and Naomi corral her, with Miss Glow hitting a crossbody out of the ring as we head to a break.
When we come back, the IIconics have still not tagged in, and God bless WWE for making these two the strategists of this match. Sonya has Carmella in an angry hug, keeping her isolated from the effective component of her team. Carmella fights back, both women hitting crossbodies simultaneously, knocking them both down and keeping Vaudeville alive and well.
Carmella is about to get the tag before Mandy attacks Naomi and drags Sonya back to her corner. Which leaves her to face Naomi when they both tag in. Not sure what she expected to happen, but what actually happens is a great deal of punches and kicks, none of which are thrown by Mandy. The IIconics aren't even on the ring apron anymore, thus avoiding the comical "accidental tag" situation so often seen here. This is Stephen Hawking-level thinking from your average pro wrestler.
Sonya tries to get involved, which earns her a punching, a kicking and a tossed-the-fuck-out-the-ringing from Carmella and Naomi. Naomi hits the split-legged moonsault, and that is that.
I'm both impressed and amused at the fact the IIconics didn't even wrestle here. But it was a decent match with some rare strategy shown, so 2.5 Stars.
The IIconics jump Naomi and Carmella right after the match, and in professional wrestling terms they are now too intelligent to be left alive. I just used the term "too intelligent" to describe the IIconics. What is 2019?
We see the RAW superstars discuss the Elimination Chamber match. Nia Jax promises that no-one will be walking out of the Chamber, so it's nice that she's able to acknowledge how shit she is at her job. She also keeps talking over Tamina, so I guess I have to give her that. Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan say that we're going to see "a different side of the Riott Squad", possibly even an effective one.
Sarah and Liv also look like they wanted to go out for Halloween, but gave up halfway through dressing up and decided to just stay home and drink.
If this segment was a puppy, I would drown it
Here's the Miz and Shane McMahon. I have bleach and a shot glass in my kitchen, so watching this segment is quite a risk on my part. They're presenting "McMiz TV", and the only reason I might not commit suicide is because hell might exist and it's probably this exact same storyline.
We receive the news the Mustafa Ali is not medically cleared for the Elimination Chamber match. I'm torn, as it seems way too early for Ali to be involved in a WWE Championship programme, whilst at the same time I feel like once you've pulled the trigger, you don't get to put the bullet back in the chamber.
Anyway, Miz and Shane banter as I long for the sweet silence of the grave. Roman's chemo treatment has to be less poisonous than this. We finally get the Usos out there to dilute this horror, and I can only hope the homeopaths aren't right.
I mean, they're not: they're either amoral shysters or fucking morons.
The Usos run down Shane and the Miz, as God intended, saying that they're not a real tag team. Jesus, one of them's not even a real wrestler. The Usos play a round of the Newlyweds game to prove how great a team they are, because years of annihilating every team not called "The Bludgeon Brothers" isn't as impressive as knowing your twin brother's favourite colour.
Miz and Shane also play, demonstrating that this game's super easy if you're just willing to lie about it. And then Miz brings up Mandy Rose, like that's still something to be ashamed of. Did I imagine the episode where her scheme came crashing down and it turns out that Jimmy wouldn't cheat on Naomi? Has my sanity already been irreparably twisted by this fucking storyline?
Everyone finally gets angry, which I beat them to about a month ago. The Usos get their game faces on and drop their mics. Shane tries to be street, and he and Miz raise their belts. There's nothing more to be said, so the Usos superkick the pair of them. That was the only good thing about any of this, and it's still not enough.
Also, Shane's still one of their bosses, right? Did he cede all authority over the Tag Team Division when he became part of it? Because that…would actually be a very good measure to have in place.
I need a cigarette after that
Aw yes, it's time for a Gauntlet Match. Here's Daniel Bryan with his IKEA belt and giant hipster sidekick. I swear, I have that exact same shirt Rowan's wearing. Bryan says that people want him to lose the Championship on Sunday, and you could lose that thing in a furniture warehouse. He tells the crowd that they need him as WWE Champion, and if the alternative is Jeff Hardy then I absolutely agree.
Bryan waxes lyrical about the horrors of the Elimination Chamber, but states that he will undergo this experience in order to continue pushing for the Green New Deal (WWE division). Another reminder that WWE can go fuck themselves for creating an "evil environmentalist" character. The world's dying, you complacent cunts.
The New Day interrupt, teasing Big E and Xavier Woods before sending Kofi forward. Makes sense as they're replacing Ali, but I wish it was Woods. So it's Daniel Bryan vs. Kofi Kingston to start the Gauntlet. Bell rings, and the match gets underway. Kofi knocks Bryan down with a shoulder tackle before Bryan returns the favour, pushing his advantage with some mat wrestling, tying and stretching Kofi before Kingston almost turns a bow and arrow into a quick cover. Bryan kicks out, ducking out of the ring before slowly returning.
The Champion goes after Kofi's arm, with the New Day member fighting back through his athleticism, hitting a pair of deep arm drags, working over Bryan's arm in turn. Bryan escapes, putting Kofi down with a trio of hard knees to the gut before following up with a surfboard, bringing Kingston down into a cover before running the ropes, finally running into a leaping back elbow from Kofi.
Bryan sends Kofi over the ropes; he skins the cat, tosses Bryan out and throws himself onto him as we head into a break. When we come back, Bryan is back in control of Kingston, wrenching him back across the ropes before hitting a running dropkick to his trapped opponent. Kofi stays in the match, continuing to resist, but the Champ hangs him up across the ropes before hitting a hard knee to the back of Kingston's head for a near fall.
Bryan heads up to the top again, this time missing a flying headbutt. Kofi takes advantage of the fault, hitting a flurry of moves to keep Bryan grounded. Bryan flips over Kofi's head, but winds up on the receiving end of a crossbody for another near fall. He trips Kingston into a turnbuckle, hangs him up in the Tree of Woe and starts blasting him with kicks. He takes Kofi up to the top, but an attempted back superplex sees Kofi try to counter, landing across Bryan's face as we go to another break.
When we come back, Bryan and Kofi are hammering away at each other before Bryan unleashes a barrage of kicks to Kingston's chest and head. They exchange a flurry of covers before Bryan dives for the Yes Lock, managing to fully apply it. Kofi reaches for the ropes, managing to drag the Champ across to them. Bryan hits a baseball slide to drop Kofi to the outside, then hits a flying knee strike to the head before bundling Kofi back inside.
Bryan heads back up to the top, going for the front dropkick, but Kofi catches him with a dropkick of his own! Kingston wants Trouble in Paradise, but Rowan trips him up. The New Day take Rowan out but get ejected for it, allowing Bryan to almost topple Kingston with a quick roll-up. Bryan stays on the offence, kicking away mercilessly at Kofi. He runs into a pendulum kick from Kofi, but a moment's distraction of the referee allows Rowan to attack Kingston again, this time throwing him into the timekeeper's area.
The referee ejects Rowan, because fuck everyone trying to make his job harder. Bryan doesn't bother arguing, but bundles Kofi back inside the ring. He goes for the Running Knee and…Kofi hits Trouble in Paradise! Kofi Kingston beats Daniel Bryan!
Holy shit, did not call that. Next up is Jeff Hardy, and after a commercial break, both men are still struggling for control, with Jeff hitting a jawbreaker and Kingston answering with a dropkick which sends Hardy out of the ring. A dive from Kofi sees the New Day member crash and burn, allowing Hardy to hurl himself at Kingston. He throws Kofi back into the ring, goes for the Swanton and misses.
Jeff knocks Kofi down coming off the ropes. An inverted atomic drop and a leg drop connect, but Kingston almost counters the low dropkick into a roll-up! Hardy goes for Cardiac Arrest in the corner, but Kofi dodges that too, then climbs up top. Jeff catches him, following his opponent up before looking for a superplex. Kofi resists, beating Hardy back down to the mat, but Jeff climbs right back up, still trying for the superplex, then gets thrown to the mat again.
Kofi goes for a crossbody; Hardy rolls him up for the two, ducks the Trouble in Paradise but eats the S.O.S…and Kofi Kingston beats Hardy!
Now it's Samoa Joe vs. Kofi Kingston so…good run, Kofi. After a break, Samoa Joe is brutalising Kofi like he'd like to brutalise Wendy Styles. He's even partially dressed. Kofi tries to fight back, but a charge from Joe into the corner followed by a swift kick to the face puts a stop to that nonsense.
Joe applies an abdominal stretch, then practically beheads him with a clothesline. He applies a facelock to Kofi, getting us in the mood for some sweet Randy Orton headlock and sleeper action. Kingston escapes, manages to send Joe through the ropes and vault out on top of him! Both men beat the count back at eight, and Joe clotheslines Kofi to fuck a second later. Kingston's not finished, though: he blasts Samoa Joe with shots, hitting a flurry before an inverted atomic drop cuts him off.
Samoa Joe applies a surfboard, like he's forgotten his finishing move but is sure if he tries every submission move he knows, he'll remember it. Kofi somehow manages to hit a back kick, staggering Joe before the bigger man flattens Kingston with a back senton. Kofi rolls onto the apron, still fighting off Joe. He tries to springboard onto his opponent, but Joe shoves him off the rope, letting him crash and burn on the outside. Samoa Joe waits out the ref's count, but Kofi makes it back in at eight somehow.
Joe starts wrenching Kofi's head around, presumably reaching an emotional state where he's comfortable with snapping his opponent's neck. Kofi fires back with some strikes, but Joe finally remembers the Coquina Clutch, locking it in. Kingston struggles, then kicks off the top rope, rolling over the top of Joe and…he pins him! Kofi Kingston beats Samoa Joe!
Imagine if they'd let Mustafa Ali do this.
Joe is understandably miffed, and demonstrates the depth of his irritation by wrecking Kofi's shit. Kofi's locked in the Clutch on the outside, with Joe keeping it applied as AJ Styles' music hits and AJ runs down the ramp. Styles doesn't bother trying to wrench Joe off Kingston, instead taking advantage of the fact that both of Joe's are busy by stomping him repeatedly in the head. Samoa Joe releases the Clutch, backing off as Styles smacks his wife's would-be rapist around.
So now it's AJ Styles vs. Kofi Kingston, with Kofi dragging himself back into the ring. Styles is on the apron, trying to tell Kingston to give it up, even getting into the ring to talk to him. If I was Styles, I'd keep my distance; even he's not safe from getting eliminated tonight. Kofi shoves AJ away, yelling that he's been waiting too long for this opportunity.
AJ responds by punching Kofi in the face, then opens up a can of whupass on him. Kofi kicks out of the backbreaker, then again from getting whipped into the corner (come on, Styles). Kofi still fights back, but AJ goes after his leg, dragging him down to the mat. Styles looks honestly vicious here, although it might be because I now want Kofi to win this whole thing.
Styles gets Kofi up, holding onto his leg. Kingston responds by punching him in the face, but Styles shuts him down again, hitting a snap suplex for another two count. This single match has been better for Kofi Kingston than every Royal Rumble escape ever. He slides out of a suplex, tries to roll AJ up multiple times, but eats a fucking nasty backbreaker from Styles once the former Champion collects himself.
Kofi elevates Styles onto the apron, then kicks his legs out from under him. He joins Styles on the apron, kicking away at him, but a charge sees Styles dodge, with Kofi crashing and burning hard against the ring post. The referee makes the count, and I don't even think…nope: Kofi makes it back into the ring. This is awesome.
AJ continues his assault against Kingston, this time going for a Frankensteiner, but Kofi blocks it, hitting a splash to the back of Styles for a near fall! He goes for the S.O.S., but Styles counters into the Calf Crusher. Kofi screams as Styles wrenches back on the leg, finally tapping out. AJ Styles beats Kofi Kingston.
The New Day come down to help Kofi to the back, carrying him out. AJ watches him leave, and I'd say that's really dumb considering who's left in the match, but Randy Orton actually plays his music rather than go for the surprise attack…scratch that: Orton plays his music, then RKOs Styles out of nowhere for the win. Hahaha: you sneaky fuck. Randy Orton beats AJ Styles: Randy Orton wins the Gauntlet Match.
Outstanding subversion of expectations: using Kingston as the marathon man, taking out Bryan immediately, having Kofi beat Joe and give Styles a real fight. I only guessed the finish because of how little time was left on the clock. This was excellent storytelling, and I hope the Elimination Chamber is of this same quality. 5 Stars.

And to think, BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall insisted he stick around for this.
BYU committed turnovers on its first five possessions and Utah turned them all into touchdowns, turning a Holy War reunion into a Holy Crap blowout barely 10 minutes in.
Cougars quarterback Tanner Mangum was the biggest turnover culprit, losing a fumble that led to Utah's first score, then tossing two pick sixes and another pick that was returned to the BYU 1. A Squally Canada fumble on BYU's fifth possession set up Utah's most challenging scoring drive of the day, a five-play, 39-yard march that made the score 35-0 with 4:38 remaining in the first quarter.
The teams traded punts throughout the second quarter until BYU mounted a 97-yard touchdown drive that finally got them on the scoreboard with 36 seconds left in the half.
As it stands, Utah leads 35-7 despite being out-gained 190-77 and running only 26 plays.
Utah will receive to open the second half.

Let's speed up bike plan
As bicycle rental plan goes at a walker's pace, we're trying to stay optimistic.
Nearly a year ago, City Council awarded a $105,000 contract to a Wisconsin company to install Houston's first bicycle rental stations. We were promised that eventually other rental stations would pop up in distinctly more useful locations than the three downtown stalls - at least by October. But it is nearly 2013, and we're still stuck at the three original locations ("Reviews, permits put brakes on new bike-rental kiosks," Page A1, Saturday).
The delay, according to Houston sustainability director Laura Spanjian, is due to reviews under a federal grant, historic preservation approvals and city permitting.
You know, the usual.
But the slow startup has left too much room for pessimism about the program's low ridership. To which we say: Of course there is low ridership. Houston's B-Cycle system only has three stations, with a total of 18 bikes, all largely constrained to our commuter-centric downtown. Given the program's small size and lack of strong destinations, the 2,000 uses from 1,200 riders since B-Cycle's start in May should be viewed as a rather impressive coup.
A ridership limited to lunch-time jaunts across an expansive downtown or joyrides along Buffalo Bayou can only gain so many fans. If people are going to ride B-Cycles, we need stations that are actually destinations.
Montrose, Midtown and the Museum District have been floated as close and obvious spots for the next stations - and given how many "cool Houston" articles we've read in national magazines touting these hip locales, we can't disagree. Tight parking and multiple attractions make these areas prime biking avenues.
But in addition to a destination mentality, population and density are also important when it comes to the additional 23 locations. B-Cycle stations at sports stadiums would let people park near a distant station and ride a bike on over, rather than negotiate the often pricey parking among several thousand other fans. And stations on Houston's college campuses would help students get around. After all, the bike path between Texas Southern University and the Dynamos' stadium is a particularly gorgeous ride. And the University of Houston and the Museum District are connected by bicycle paths along Brays Bayou. Properly placed B-Cycle stations at these key locations would help folks get around without cars and enjoy the scenic paths hidden within our urban landscape.
These stations would ideally also show folks just how bikeable a city like Houston can be. Suburban dwellers who drive to the Museum District on the weekend may be pleasantly surprised to find that they can hop on a bike and explore our cityscape up close - without having to pay for gas or worry about parking.
There is no reason that Houston cannot be a biking city. San Antonio - hardly much cooler or denser than Houston - has 30 bicycle sharing stations, featuring 300 bikes that have logged nearly 50,000 trips since the program first started in in early 2011. All it takes is putting the plan into place.

.Management theory & principles November 20, 2011 Bed Bath & Beyond VS.
Linens 'n Things The two companies I have chosen to research and dissect on why one has had great success and one has had great failure are Bed Bath and Beyond and Linens 'n Things. When looking at both companies they seem to be similar to one another with the items they sell, the store layout and policies so why it that one failed and one is still standing. Managements job is to oversee others so their activities are completed efficiently and effectively.After looking into these two companies there seems to be some underlying reasons why. Linens 'n Things was introduced in 1975 and has been providing high quality home textiles, housewares and decorative accessories. In late 2008 the original Linens 'n Things declared bankruptcy and closed all its physical stores in North America. A new Linens 'n Things was launched online at www. LNT.

com that provides a one-stop shopping experience for customers with convenience. I am going to be focusing more on what went wrong from a management standpoint with having to close all stores and filing for bankruptcy.I feel that due to lack of planning, and setting goals, establishing strategies and developing plans to coordinate activities that the managers for the company are responsible for the underachievement. When Linens n' Things numbers where high and everything was running smooth is when the company should have be planning different goals and strategies that would help them gain a completive edge against the competition and set themselves up as a leader in the industry. The second function of management is organizing which is as important as any of the four steps of management.When you organize you have to determine what actually needs to be done and how it will be done and who is to do it.
They should have been setting up ways to stand apart from the competition instead of following them in all ways and don't to the same standard as Bed Bath and Beyond. Under organizing falls staffing this would have to be cut in order to have more revenue. They could have cut more full-time staff which they have to offer benefits and replace with part-time workers which they could pay minimum wage.
The third function is leading, motivating and dealing with people. When managing the team at a store I would want to motivate my staff to really engage customers and stress customer service to help drive sales. You could also have different employee motivation programs that help the staff grow as an employee thus making a better work force. With leading managers will have to lay off or fire if they have underperforming employees or need to cut back.Forth is controlling which is monitoring activities to ensure that they are accomplished as planned with will hopefully lead to achieving the organizations original purpose. Linen n' Things needed the leadership to monitor and control how much was been spent for payroll and how much was coming in with revenue.
The problem with Linen n' Things is that it had been taken private in a leveraged buyout and ended up suffering a crazy amount of debt that they could not manage to get out of while Bed Bath and Beyond has no debt. Bed Bath and Beyond Inc. as founded in 1971 and went public in 1992. The company is counted among the fortune 500 and Forbes 2000. Just from my personal experience Bed Bath always has lots of friendly and informed employees on the selling floor who when asked for the location of an item, will walk you there to make sure you find it.
Just finding help in Linens n' Things was a work in its self. Also my first job I ever had was a Bed Bath and beyond and I have nothing but good things to say about the company, the way my managers did business and the way I was treated as an employee.I remember that I was paid a dollar over minimum wage as a sixteen year old kid with no experience they had a good training program, also they had great employee motivation programs for example employee of the month, holiday parties, contest and etc. Bed Bath and Beyond and Linens 'n Things were started within four years of each other and their corporate headquarters were just a mere 16 miles apart such a small world when you think about it.
Although they have significant similarities in the beginning setting, their performance results separate severely.On the surface, both companies were following a similar business-level strategy of cost leadership, but key strategic decisions led them down very different paths. Both companies focused on providing consumers with high-quality houseware goods in a no-frills, value-priced environment, but Linens n' Things decision to build centralized warehouses that seemed consistent with a cost leadership strategy ended up bringing it into direct competition with Target and Walmart while as you know is a whole different ball game compared o, Bed Bath and Beyond which allowed for greater decentralization in decision making, which made allowing more store-level decision making and greater customization to local shoppers' tastes.
As a result, Bed Bath and Beyond was able to better tell itself apart from Walmart and Target. Bed Bath and Beyond's market capitalization was approximately $10. 7 billion, while there stores where open Linens n' Things had just been acquired for $1. billion by a private equity firm.
Linens 'n Things has been losing money for years and finally had difficulty keeping up with payments to its lenders and vendors. Some strategies used by Linens n' Things was a change to bold clearance sales and product promotions. Management wanted Linens 'n Things to go back to "every day, low price"(LNT.
com) model it had followed during its earlier years as a public company.It also hoped to improve the quality of its merchandise and to keep shelves stocked in timely fashion but unfortunately they did not have time so save there company, all their employees and stores. The Chicago Tribune says Bed Bath & Beyond is "in outstanding financial health, with strong cash flow to fund the opening of new stores and no long-term debt. Although it has reduced its expansion plans to 50 or fewer new Bed Bath & Beyond stores this fiscal year because of the economy, it is expected to emerge from the recession in dominant fashion. "

Bernice Summerfield's New Adventures.
Lisa Bowerman is the actress who has brought Benny to life for the listener.Just check out the short video trailer for the Sutekh stories to see in a minute or two the levels of reality she brings to this fantastic character.She is in very impressive company in this quartet. It is only David Warner, David Bloody Warner himself, playing a version of The Doctor from another universe. An else world universe as D.C.Comics was so fond of calling them.The lovely Mark Gatis is also involved playing..Well, you will hear.
The first story is a set up story which it does without any fuss or preamble. Barely an introduction but it is enough when your choice of transport is a time an space machine.You do not need more than this as your brain as a Doctor Who fan is already hard wired as to how to get on board.It is a great start, a mysterious library in deep space where pilgrims have traveled across vast distances to avail of its contents, shelves filled with the accumulated history and wisdom of hundreds of worlds some now long gone. This Doctors universe is that sort of universe. On its last legs after som terrible conflict.The two leads are fantastic with David Warner bringing a huge amount of gravitas and dry charm to the Doctor of this universe whilst Lisa Bowerman more than holds her own. She deserves to have her ame atop these adventures.The friendship between the two is very believable and not at all some contrived topsy turvy lop sided relationship as the two bravely face dangers together. The support cast is also spot on, nuns with guns and gloomy robots included. While sme one else new and yet familiar awaits his moment to step into the light.
The second story continues as the two friends travel through space("but not time") to a world where..actually the situation on Planet X needs o heard and experienced as part of the narrative. I was reminded of the Pat Mills and Dave Gibbons Doctor Who Weekly comic strip Planet Of The Damned. I am also reminded of when I loved Tom Baker as The Doctor and David Warner brings much of the same lived in charm as Tom managed. Only two stories in and I am waxing lyrically about this Tardis Team.
By the third story we hear David Warner put the Who back into Who as he strides through The Very Dark Thing as though he is the only person who understands what is going on.
Well we, the listener, knew it was coming.A showdown between the characters dramatically displayed on the cover of this box set. Poor Benny. As if she does not have enough on her plate she also finds herself the center of attention from someone she really would be better off avoiding. Lost in a different universe, kidnapped by a best friend she has never met, seperated from friends and family and dependent on the vagaries and good will of a brilliant but flawed time-lord.
The whole proceedings have a very different tone to the box set before it, no Doctor or Ace. But it is a fantastic direction to take.Like the Tardis's travels through E-Space anything seems possible in a universe where things seem to be running down.
I for one will be running to keep up.

You may recall that it took me 3 hours to remove the passenger side upper control arm ball joint. Yes! It took me 3 hours to learn the correct technique to remove the rivets. On the driver's side however, I had the technique down cold and the rivets came out in less than 25 minutes start to finish.
First, grind the head off the stud so it's flush. Then drill a hole into the center of the stud about 1/8" deep.
Next, pound the stud out with a sledge and steel punch. The control arm MUST be held securely on a firm surface or the blow from the sledge will not be very effective. The hole you drilled helps the punch stay centered on the stud.
Getting Closer!
The PS brakes have been rebuilt and the hub and drum are back on.
Now the driver's side needs to be cleaned. I got the last of it pulled apart today.
Putting it back together.
It's time to put the passenger side suspension back together. The pics tell it all.
Looks a lot better than it used to!
Lookin' just like new!
It sure takes a lot of time, but the results are worth it! The passenger side front suspension is clean, painted and ready to go back on. The frame is clean and painted as well. You will notice that the new upper and lower ball joints have been installed.

Going against the wave of underclassmen cannonballing into the draft, one Michigan football player is coming back to the Big House for one more go.
In a text message to the Detroit Free Press, junior running back Karan Higdon confirmed that he will not be making himself available for the April NFL draft. "After speaking with my family I have decided that I'm going to return for my senior year," the missive read.
Following the Outback Bowl loss to South Carolina New Year's Day, Higdon told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune that he would have a discussion with head coach Jim Harbaugh and "make a decision from there."
Higdon led the Wolverines in rushing in 2017 with 994 yards and rushing touchdowns with 11, while his 6.1 yards per carry were second on the team. In three seasons, he's rushed for 1,438 yards and 17 touchdowns on 247 carries.
With Higdon's decision, the Wolverines will return their top two rushers as Chris Evans (685 yards, six touchdowns, 5.1 ypc) is back for his true junior season.

Experience the adventure of dining with lions
A new and exciting experience is being introduced to Al Ain Safari, where now Al Ain city visitors can dine a few meters away from members of the Lion Kingdom in a well-appointed location comparable to five-star hotel services. The experience includes a wonderful feast accompanied by the lions, while preserving the privacy of the animals in their habitat and adhering to the animal rights and human safety, ensuring a safe and very clear view of the King of the Jungle as he shares a meal with his guests.
The experience can be booked online or by contacting 800966, which requires confirmation of prepaid bookings within 48 hours. This experience is especially recommended for the cooler months (1 November - 30 April) or depending on the weather.


text: The four-faced deity is seated in the maharajalilasana and sports four hands carrying akshamala (upper right), abhayamudra (lower right), kamandala (upper left) and possibly a lotus-pod (lower left). She wears large ear ornaments (patrakundala), jewelled armbands (keyura), as also a small tali and a more elaborate necklace (kanthi) with beads on her neck. A sumptuous jewel encrusted crown (karandamakuta), framed by a unique halo of looped curls and resting on a mass of piled up curly hair adorns her head. She also wears bangles, anklets, toe – rings, and yajnopavita or ratnopavita (differing in design when seen from the rear). Her jewel-encrusted belt with a lion clasp spewing out tassels is reminiscent of early Chola sculptures. The ribboned tassels of her lower garments flow out limpidly on to her curved cushion-like seat (padmapitha). The goddess is surrounded by an ovoid prabhavali to her rear. This sculpture possibly originated in a magnificent temple commissioned by the Nolambas or Banas or Gangas in their heyday in southern Karnataka.

IoT and Modbus protocol development
Master thesis
MetadataShow full item record
- Master i teknologi [158]
An Internet of Things (IoT) device has been developed by the "SMART" research group at University College of Southeast Norway. It is intended for laboratory experiments. It uses Modbus TCP on top of the TCP/IP stack for communication. The main tasks were to both develop a set of objects for Modbus communication using Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) methods and also an application based on the objects to communicate with the IoT Device. In addition, a laboratory assignment on Modbus, IoT and network using the application developed should be proposed. By using Unified process as development process, Unified Modeling Language and design patterns, the application and software objects was developed in one solution and by using the OOAD approach. A proposal to a laboratory assignment was also created using the application and software objects as part of the assignment. Modbus has been implemented in the software as a IoT protocol for communication with the device. The developed software has been tested and is working according to the requirements collected. The laboratory assignment proposed will give the students knowledge in technology relevant for the future.

The U.S. Forest Service has just announced their plan to exempt the Tongass National Forest from the national Roadless Rule.
The Roadless Rule has conserved key areas of the Tongass from industrial old-growth logging and supported habitat for salmon, trout and steelhead, provided recreational access for anglers, and advanced southeast Alaska's $2 billion fishing and tourism industries. The proposed repeal of the Roadless Rule on the Tongass is a direct result of political and special interest decision-making aimed at reviving an outdated clear-cut logging industry that threatens key fish and wildlife resources in southeast Alaska. For a full refresher on the Roadless Rule and why it's important to Southeast, click here.
Tell the U.S. Forest Service that you want to see conservation measures remain in place for key-fish producing areas of the Tongass.
While we have a simple, pre-written comment available for you online, personalized comments can be more effective.
- "Hello, my name is ___________ and I live in ____________."
- "I support keeping the Roadless Rule on the Tongass."
- Describe where you use the Tongass and why those places are so special.
- Explain how you use the Tongass, such as for recreational fishing, commercial use, subsistence, hunting, camping, hiking, boating, primitive recreation, semi-primitive recreation, etc.
- Please specifically mention the need to conserve key fish-producing areas of the forest, such as the Tongass 77. For example: "Protecting key wildlife areas and salmon watersheds such as the Tongass 77 is important for our economy and way of life in Southeast Alaska."
- Optional: add additional specific information regarding the importance of intact fish and wildlife habitat, the impacts of logging or roads, or the importance of the Roadless Rule to show why you support protecting roadless areas on the Tongass.
Some additional detail that may be helpful:
The Existing Roadless Rule
- The Roadless Rule is working. It now conserves 58 million acres of fish and wildlife habitat, recreation areas, drinking- water resources and other lakes, rivers and streams across the National Forest system, which in turn protects our salmon and our tourism and recreation economy. The Rule protects more than 9 million acres on the Tongass, preventing the expansion of clear-cut logging of old-growth timber.
- The Roadless Rule has already been through the public process. More than 1.6 million people commented during the rulemaking process in 2001, and 95% of them supported strong protections for roadless areas. Public comments in 2018 and 2019 have also overwhelmingly supported retaining the rule in Alaska.
- The Roadless Rule struck the right balance by allowing energy, infrastructure and other development activities. All 58 applications for development activities in Tongass Roadless Areas, mainly associated with mineral exploration and hydropower development, have been granted. Approval generally takes just 1-3 weeks.
The Tongass
- Tongass is a globally important carbon sink. The Tongass stores 8% of all the carbon stored in America's forests and, in doing so, helps reduce the impacts of climate change.
- The Roadless Rule protects fish and wildlife. The Tongass produces more salmon than all other National Forests, combined. Roadless areas and places like the Tongass 77 contain highly-productive fish habitat that is critical to local fishing and tourism industries, which combine to contribute more than $2 billion in economic activity and roughly 26% of jobs in the region, annually.
- We don't need more roads. The Tongass National Forest already has more than 5,000 miles of permanent logging roads transecting its landscape to access timber.
- Road construction on the Tongass is expensive. American taxpayers have spent more than $600 million building logging roads on the Tongass over the past 20 years. According to the Taxpayers for Common Sense, USFS could end up losing more than $180 million in the Tongass over the next four years.
- We can't take care of the existing Tongass roads. Congressional sources pin the Tongass road maintenance backlog at roughly $68 million. The Forest Service estimates it has a backlog of more than $100 million in watershed restoration needs.
- Roads are bad for fish. The Forest Service has surveyed 3,687 places where roads cross fish streams on the Tongass (culverts and bridges) and found 33% of them fail to meet standards to allow fish migration. That means there are more than 1,200 places on the Tongass where roads don't allow fish to migrate past at all life stages! We applaud the Forest Service's on-going efforts to fix these problems, but we never should have gotten here in the first place and we question the logic behind adding to the problem.

Because you want to maximize the return on your marketing investment, you must answer these three critical questions to determine whether your marketing strategy and tactics need a tune up.
Mary Rosenbaum, the author of this article, is on target with her message.
- What's your reputation? What are past, present and prospective customers saying about your business?
- Does your message still resonate with your target audience? Is your message on target? Does it memorably and compellingly address the needs and desires of your target audience?
- Are you using the right tools to get your message out? Is your message in the places your target audience relies on and trusts to aid in their buying decisions?
So how can you answer these questions with certainty?
I recommend conducting a customer insight survey. When done properly, these surveys yield a treasure trove of insight that can be applied to improve the effectiveness of your marketing efforts. Surveys can also have an immediate impact on marketing and sales efforts. For example:
- People learn about products or services they weren't aware your business offers.
- People will often express their interest in learning more about and/or purchasing a product or service from you.
So how can you get started?
First, read this Client Insight Survey Case Study. Then, if you like what you see, contact Simple Business Solutions at (530) 262-6060 to explore how an insight survey can benefit your business.

Épices de Cru Herbes de Provence Chicken and Rabbit
In a nutshell: This very fragrant blend, with added aniseed flavour from tarragon, is perfect for seasoning delicate Provencal-style chicken and rabbit dishes.
We love the added aniseed flavour that comes from the tarragon in this mix. Sprinkle a chicken with these herbs before roasting or add to a summery coq au vin along with tomatoes, celery, garlic, onion and a dash of our Solan Monastery Thyme Flower Vinegar - you'll need chilled rosé from Provence as well though!
Details 20g; Ingredients: thyme, rosemary, tarragon, oregano.
About Épices de Cru
Épices de Cru began in 1982 as a catering partnership between Philippe and Ethné de Vienne. Their mission was a kind of "cooking pot anthropology:" learning the secrets of family cooking around the world and applying these techniques to the needs of hungry Montrealers. The secret, they learned, was spices. Over the last two decades, Philippe and Ethné have searched for the world's best spices, accompanied by their children, Marika and Arik. The de Viennes believe in direct sourcing spices: visiting growing regions, spending time with growers, and developing personal relationships that last decades. In 2004, they officially opened their first spice shop in Montreal's fantastic Jean Talon market– it's since become a mecca for foodies from all over the world. I first visited in 2008 and have been buying and using their spices on a regular basis ever since that first exciting visit. They steadfastly maintain that they do nothing original, only facilitating the exchange of culinary common sense from one place to another. But, what they do is simply quite brilliant - by providing us with the finest quality ingredients, and their superb spice mixes, we can all experiment with unusual spices and recreate delicious recipes from around the world.

Last week the gauntlet was thrown down and I challenged all of you to join my friend Ryan and I in completing the 100 Push Up Challenge.
To stimulate the competition, I sweetened the pot by offering $25 cash and a variety of t-shirts to anyone that was willing to write a post about taking the challenge. So far there are only a handful of entries, meaning the odds of winning are pretty good.
Week One :: The Program
When first looking at the lineup of workouts for the initial week, I scoffed at the program and thought that this would be a piece of cake. In talking to Ryan, I know that I was not alone in that thinking.
As we both performed more than 10 push ups in our initial test, we are following the Level 3 workout which consists of the following:
Day One
- 10 push ups followed by 60 seconds rest
- 10 push ups followed by 60 seconds rest
- 8 push ups followed by 60 seconds rest
- 6 push ups followed by 60 seconds rest
- Max (at least 7 push ups)
Day Two
- 12 push ups followed by 90 seconds rest
- 12 push ups followed by 90 seconds rest
- 10 push ups followed by 90 seconds rest
- 10 push ups followed by 90 seconds rest
- Max (at least 10 push ups)
Day Three
- 15 push ups followed by 120 seconds rest
- 13 push ups followed by 120 seconds rest
- 10 push ups followed by 120 seconds rest
- 10 push ups followed by 120 seconds rest
- Max (at least 15 push ups)
Reviewing the break down of workouts, you too might be thinking that this doesn't seem like it would be a challenge.
Week One :: The Results
After performing the initial test last week and cranking out 27 push ups, there was a good deal of soreness the following day…err, two days. Unfortunately, that second day was when I decided to start the first workout and lets just say that it was a rather humbling experience.
The following day, clearly in a distorted state of mind, I then thought it would be a good idea to help my neighbor move 9 tons of rock from his front yard to his back yard as he built a koi pond worthy of a national park.
Monday was a day of rest and recuperation, even though I had originally planned to complete the second workout that night; which was completed on Tuesday night instead.
With my arms feeling like Jello, I am sitting here right now typing this post after completing the third workout. If it wasn't so much effort to remove my hands from the keyboard, I would have ended this post about four paragraphs ago. The first few sets of Day Three felt easier, although by the fourth set the fatigue was setting in and I pushed the max set until my arms literally folded underneath me.
Week Two :: Looking Ahead
Knowing that the first week was more difficult than anticipated, Week Two looks like it will certainly present a challenge. Adding to the difficulty is the fact that there is an exhaustion test planned after completing the second week, which will provide an opportunity to see if there have been any gains made so far.
For those of you that accepted the challenge and have started the program with me, please share your thoughts on the first week in the comments below. If you'd prefer to share your recap on your blog, please come back and share a link to your recap so we can all follow along.
Ryan…care to let everyone know what you thought of the first week?

Three years ago, it struck me that maybe I should stop going only to Christian conferences. In fact, when I first started writing I had never intended to go to Christian conferences at all! But I did because that's what everyone said to do. Then I saw an ad somewhere for the DFW Writers Conference, and found that it was much more affordable than ACFW, and also always conveniently close! And it was early enough that I could get a great discount too.
I was nervous about going. During my forays to ACFW, I had been told the following things about secular writing conferences:
—Everyone's always drunk. It's all about drinking.
—Everyone, including the presenters, uses foul language all the time. It's wall-to-wall F-words.
—Everyone is super-competitive and not supportive or encouraging at all.
—No one there is going to be interested in any form of Christian fiction or even "clean" fiction.
Still, I wanted to give it a try. That first time, my husband came with me and did some sightseeing in Dallas while I was at the conference.
What a pleasant surprise it was! There was a "cocktail party" in the evening, but that first year I didn't go to it. The second year I did (they had plenty of soft drinks). I didn't see anyone even close to being drunk. The drinking was not a big deal at all.
I heard very little offensive language. One of the presenters let a word slip once, and immediately apologized for being unprofessional. The other writers in attendance were likewise circumspect in their language—at least the ones I talked to.
The classes were fantastic, and the presenters were first-rate. This conference had a feature that was so incredibly educational, which they called the "gong show." During the first part of the conference, aspiring writers anonymously submit their query letters into a basket. It's totally voluntary. During the gong show, a bunch of agents line up on stage and there are a series of gongs and mallets in front of them. A guy with a wonderful "radio voice" starts reading a query from the pile and each time he gets to the point where one of the agents would stop reading, that agent bongs his gong. At the third gong, the man stops reading and the agents all explain why they lost interest. So helpful! (And often hilarious.)
I wasn't worried about my fellow attendees being too competitive, because to be honest I couldn't imagine them being worse than what I had experienced at ACFW—and they weren't. Some were chatty, and some were not, but no one was unfriendly. The second year I went to a free workshop the month before the conference and met some people I could hang out with and they were very encouraging.
And unhelpful? I didn't find that either. The second year I went, I drew a "lot" that gave me a chance to bring a writing problem before a panel of experts. I was struggling with the beginning of one of my stories. Not only did one of the agents on the panel request my proposal, but one of the fellow attendees offered to critique my first 50 pages and she gave me fabulous feedback. So helpful. And she did it out of the kindness of her heart.
Both years I went, I had serious interest from agents in my work, which unfortunately didn't result in representation, but the reality is that I found more interest here than at any Christian conference I have attended. I love this conference and was sad I couldn't afford to go this year. I hope I get to go again. I haven't even got to three yet with this one!

It has been quite a while since I had my own outdoor space at home. Today, I went to a plant nursery to get myself a few potted plants to start populating my new pad. Here are two of them:
I chose these plants because they don't need much care. Perfect for me. However, they do need to be in a bright and preferably shaded location or so I was told. Perfect for the outdoor space I have at home since it doesn't get any direct sunlight.
The one in the blue pot is a Dracaena Fragrans while the one in the black pot is a Pachira. The one in the blue pot is also known as an Iron Tree in Asia. When an Iron Tree flowers, it will bring good luck to the owner. So, I hope it flowers.
I kept an Aloe Vera plant that grew to be a giant before and it flowered multiple times. If you are new to my blog, see the related post at the end of this blog post to look at the photos I took of the Aloe Vera plant before.
The Dracaena Fragrans is also an organic air purifier. Apparently, it removes pollutants such as formaldehyde, xylene and toluene. I am not a chemist. So, don't ask me for details but they sound like nasty stuff. Source: NASA Clean Air Studies.
The Pachira plant is believed to bring wealth and is also known as the Money Tree. It also cleans the air of smoke. Anyone here living or working with smokers? Go get a Pachira plant.
I just found out that it could grow to be 15 feet tall although the size of its pot could limit its growth. Oh, dear. I could be in trouble if mine grows much bigger. I better be mentally prepared. Source: Care for Pachira plants.
Now, I have another thing to do on Sundays apart from the laundry.
