Stage 5 of Rally Dakar 2017 saw its share of terrible weather, miscalculations and surprises as KTM Factory Team rider Sam Sunderland (bike category) and Peugeot driver Sébastien Loeb (car category) won the race. Sam Sunderland demonstrated his navigational skills to win in Oruro, taking advantage of his rivals' problems, on a special that was shortened to 219 kilometres due to poor weather. As for Sébastien Loeb, he picked up his second victory this year in the car category at the end of a very risky stage.
One notable absentee from the start line in Tupiza was 2010 winner Carlos Sainz with the significant damage from his crash down a ravine on Thursday forcing his premature retirement from the race.
Meanwhile, in a fresh development, because of inclement weather Stage 6 was cancelled by the organisers of Dakar Rally. The sixth stage of the 2017 Dakar was to take the participants from Oruro to La Paz. Sunday January 8, 2017 was decided as a rest day. In Stage 6, the rally was to cover a total of 786 km on the agenda out which the special distance was a mammoth 527 km, which was supposed to be the longest timed section in this edition of the Dakar.
Bad weather hit the Dakar rally on Friday with Stage 5 curtailed after 219km of a 447km route. Having navigated the first part of the timed stage, the competitors did not start the second portion after the neutralised zone with the tracks no longer said to be negotiable on the way to Oruro.
Sam Sunderland has become the fifth different winner in five stages in the bike race. Juan Pedrero, Toby Price, Joan Barreda and Matthias Walkner preceded him and now the race is even more open than ever. Joan Barreda, the undisputed leader of the general standings the previous evening with a lead of more than 18 minutes, saw his hopes of keeping the lead cave in Stage5. Firstly, the official Monster Energy Honda Team rider received a one hour time penalty for having refuelled outside the authorised zone the previous day, before having a hellish stage and getting lost after approximately 150 km of the special. The Spaniard lost 37 minutes to the day's winner and plunges down the general standings to 1 hour 12 minutes behind the leader.
The Dakar convoy has now driven further into the high plains of Bolivia. Sam Sunderland has been consistent since the start of the rally and was biding his time to make the perfect strike. He brilliantly achieved his goal on January 7, 2017, with his second special stage victory on the Dakar that was also synonymous with taking command of the general standings. The Englishman was the only rider to not get lost in the Bolivian dunes, unlike Pablo Quintanilla, Xavier de Soultrait, Matthias Walkner or Joan Barreda, who all lost a lot of ground.
In the car category, Sébastien Loeb ended the day smiling after obtaining his second victory in 2017 and the sixth of his young rally raid career, as he calmly resisted a comeback by Nani Roma at the end of the special, where the Spaniard finished 44 seconds behind the Frenchman. Stéphane Peterhansel climbs to the top of the general standings, in which Mikko Hirvonen and Giniel De Villiers have now been considerably distanced due to navigational mistakes.
In the quad race, Kees Koolen of Maxxis Super b Dakar Team went flat out to grab his first stage victory on the Dakar with a big lead over the day's runner-up Gustavo Gallego. An interesting fact about Stage 5 winner Kees Koolen is that he has competed at the Dakar in four different categories. The quad bike is his mode of transport in 2017 and the Dutchman was in fine form to beat Gustave Gallego by seven minutes. Continuing their domination in the Quad category, Yamaha riders currently occupy the first four spots in the class' provisional overall standings. New provisional leader in the class is Yamaha Raptor 700R mounted Simon Vitse.
In the truck race, Gerard de Rooy of Iveco grabbed a second consecutive stage victory, has now reached his cruising speed and has taken command of the general standings. A Kamaz truck was again runner-up, but this time it was Eduard Nikolaev, who also takes second place in the general standings.
With already four official cars, Peugeot has made sure it has the means to dominate the final podium in Buenos Aires. However, a fifth 3008 DKR has been regularly springing surprises, with a certain Romain Dumas behind its wheel. The Frenchman is taking part in his third Dakar and is progressing by improving his best result with every stage that passes. The former endurance driver broke into the top five on the fifth stage, less than one minute behind the official Peugeot driven by Cyril Despres. As a result, he enabled the lion branded constructor to put four cars among the first five finishers.
Four MINI cars remain in the top ten overall: Poor weather conditions on the way to the original destination of Oruro meant the second part of the day's track was no longer negotiable. Mikko Hirvonen (FIN) and Michel Perin (FRA) made an exceptional start to the stage, passing the second waypoint in third position less than four minutes behind the race leader. However, the pair's first mistake in the #303 MINI John Cooper Works Rally car came in the next section with some navigational difficulty. They finished the stage in 15th, pushing them to 5th overall but still within reach of the other frontrunners.
It was a more successful day for the #308 MINI John Cooper Works Rally of Orlando Terranova (ARG) and co-driver Andreas Schulz (GER) who moved up a place to 7th overall in Stage 5 after finishing 8th in a very difficult stage of the event. The third MINI John Cooper Works Rally also re-joined proceedings, subject to appeal, with Yazeed Al Rajhi (KSA) feeling better than the past two days in which he was severely affected by altitude sickness. With the help of co-driver Timo Gottschalk (DEU), Al Rajhi steered the #306 car to 13th place today. His official overall position is still to be confirmed.
Jakub Przygonski (POL) and Tom Colsoul (BEL) fared well in the #316 MINI ALL4 Racing with a consistent performance that saw the pair remain in the top ten with a 9th place stage finish to maintain 6th position overall.
Despite the tough challenges of the stage, Boris Garafulic (ARG) and co-driver Filipe Palmeiro (POR) also managed to maintain their overall position of 9th with a 14th place stage finish.
The remaining three MINI ALL4 Racing pairings also completed the difficult Stage 5 with Mohamed Abu Issa (QAT) and Xavier Panseri (FRA) finishing in 31st, one place behind Sylvio deBarros (BR) and Rafael Capoani (BR). The #325 of the experienced Stephan Schott (GER) and co-driver Paulo Fiuza (POR) were slightly ahead in 25th position at the stage end.
Joaquim Rodrigues and C.S. Santosh further improve their overall standings
HERO MOTOSPORTS TEAM RALLY: Both Hero Motosports Team Rally riders overcame frigid temperatures, pouring rain, hail storm and tricky track conditions to further improve their standings in the overall general classification, while several top riders got a heavy penalty. Joaquim Rodrigues, started this stage at 17th place after his rankings further improved overnight on account of a time refund of 27 minutes for stopping on two separate occasions on the fourth special to call in the medical helicopter to evacuate two crashed riders.
On the fifth stage in the morning, he displayed maturity well beyond his rookie's s status in the Dakar to overcome the testing conditions of rain and high altitude with a great deal of panache to complete the abridged stage in 2 hour 48 minutes and 36 seconds. It put him in 11th place in the day's classification and 11th place in the overall provisional general standings.
Santosh, who made substantial gains in the fourth stage, too kept up the good work. The Indian rider came up with yet another day of consistent riding without taking undue risks. Starting the special in 66th place—he gained five places overnight after the final penalties were calculated—Santosh finished the stage with a time of 3 hour 42 minutes and 37 seconds that pushed him up to 61st place in the day's standing placing him in 70th place in the overall provisional general standings.
Van Beveren Takes Yamaha Inside The Top Three At Dakar Rally 2017
YAMALUBE YAMAHA OFFICIAL RALLY TEAM: Putting in a convincing stage five performance, Yamalube Yamaha Official Rally Team's Adrien Van Beveren managed to earn a spot inside the top three in the 2017 Dakar Rally's provisional overall standings. Living up to the challenges of a demanding stage in the Bolivian uplands, Xavier de Soultrait and Hélder Rodrigues both finished the stage without problems and are provisionally placed sixth and 13th overall respectively.
Despite a few minor navigational mistakes early in the day, WR450F Rally mounted Adrien Van Beveren quickly got back up to speed and went on to complete a near perfect special for third overall. Confirming his status as one of the rally's most consistent competitors, the Frenchman is now third in the provisional overall standings, one stage before the 2017 Dakar Rally's halfway point.
Continuing to increase his pace, Adrien's Yamalube Yamaha Official Rally Team partner Hélder Rodrigues reached the end of the stage without any problems claiming a 19th place result. Hoping to make the most of his vast experience as the race goes on, the Portuguese rider is provisionally placed 13th in the rally's overall standings, a little more than 15 minutes behind the provisional top 10.
Xavier de Soultrait suffered a series of small navigational mistakes that forced the Yamaha France supported rider to settle for 16th on stage five. The WR450F mounted rider is currently sixth in the provisional overall standings and less than 20 minutes behind the provisional top three.

Finely divided silver is a catalyst for the recombination of ozone to oxygen.
If you can pass the exhaust over an appropriate catalytic surface, the ozone level should be much lower. If there is significant ozone content, the catalyst will heat up. |

There is perhaps the possibility of using active carbon, but the exhaust must then also removed and blown through,
other companies have the electrode in a quartz part and then claim that it would no longer smell, which I do not believe. Thus, the German company Lantsche which produces the Corona. The claim that their cell quartz the Ozone completely destroyed. Lantsche But this explanation can be found only in the German part of the page Then the exhaust converted into other compounds, who can guarantee that not even smell or toxic? Like a catalyst in the car, as is also still poison and stench out. And louder is not guaranteed Regards, George |

So I suppose Low powered SET would be out of the picture to drive the plasma tweeter sections. How inefficient are they?

line level will drive one, remember the device is an Amplifier and a radio transmitter in one. Standard dB/W/m efficiency numbers are meaningless here.
To do a comparison against a conventional tweeter you would measure the power consumption of the amplifier driving the tweeter. That would be different depending on the efficiency of the tweeter, the class of the amplifier and so on. the one in the pictures I posted was drawing about 125mA from a 700Vdc power supply. the input signal to the modulator was 200mW, we were measuring somewhere between 93 and 98 dB(A) at 1m but the meter was being affected by the radio radiation so I don't trust it. It was loud enough to be uncomfortable to be near. We were outside and a 10kHz tone could be heard inside the house over the air conditioner noise in the kitchen behind a brick wall, several internal walls and closed doors. We were driving it with a 200mW MP3 player. It was unshielded and we were pumping out about 100 watts of radio energy, we didn't want to risk any valuable equipment on the test setup. It has already damaged a power supply on a scanner. You could use the output of your SET and reduce the gain of the modulator.

Silver black is the standard way of removing ozone; the byproduct is pure oxygen, so there shouldn't be a smell. Silver slowly oxidises, but the oxide (which is itself a metal, although black) is still an effective catalyst, although somewhat less active than the pure metal. |

Hi, George,
Is this tweeter has the same operating principle with Acapella ion tweeter? |

Ozone removal...
Thanks for the info on potential catalysts - have any of you tried to smell what might be left when the gases have been filtered by e.g. silver black?
It might indicate what actually succeeds in being catalyzed... Regards, Jesper |

This includes the coil and tube... anything that has RF on it. You need a screen with relatively small holes - metal window screen should work ok. Otherwise you have a relatively high power transmitter, operating illegally - and potentially interfering with broadcasts and various services!! A portable shortwave receiver will tell you how you are doing in that department. _-_-bear

Hi George, I'm not trying to threadjack or anything, but I'm at my wit's end trying to get my plasma tweeter to work and since your email seems to be disabled I figured I should ask my question here. What I'm trying to do is make essentially the same circuit that everyone does with a screen driven pentode, but then use an 811A linear amplifier to get more power. I have a schematic that is located at this link.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/1403176...39128/sizes/l/ anyone please feel free to comment on it, whether it is even possible or not to do what I'm trying to do. Thank you. |

WOW! This is such a fantastic little diorama! I love everything about this precious terrarium. My daughter has always wanted one and she's a dinosaur lover so when I saw your beautiful work of art it was a "must have!" I know she will be beyond happy when she receives this gift. Many thanks Angela...

I bought this as a gift so I wasn't sure what to expect but it did not look like the picture at all.....there was only one succulent, one stone and one little dinosaur....I was disappointed but the recipient seemed happy.....she had picked it out based on this photo
In love with the small
When I was in the 5th grade in Mrs. Richardson's class at Brentwood Elementary, she gave us a project to make our own terrariums. This was way back when dinosaurs ruled the earth and terrariums were very popular (so the the pet rock, but that was another project). My best friend Heather and I decided it would be fun if our terrariums got married (we were 10), and so they did. Their names were 'P' and 'T' Terrarium, and they had 11 children (terrariums) whose named all began with the letter 'M'. We documented this in a hand drawn photo album (now lost to time). So, that's where my love of terrariums started. I also love my dollhouse, and miniatures in general.
I create hand blown glass miniature scenic terrariums as part of my overall garden design business. I love searching for little bits and pieces to make each one unique. One of my favorite things to do is to create custom terrariums with a favorite animal or charm. I also make custom orders for weddings, showers, and corporate gifts.

Story updated at 9:50 a.m. to reflect market activity.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- AECOM Technology (ACM) was upgraded to "buy" from "neutral" by UBS Tuesday.
Shares of AECOM gained 3.8% to $36.40 in morning trading.
The firm raised its price target for the company to $40 from $33. The URS (URS) transaction is expected to drive earnings accretion with cost synergies, debt reduction, and strong cash flow according to UBS analysts.
Must read: Warren Buffett's 25 Favorite Stocks
Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates AECOM TECHNOLOGY CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of B. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate AECOM TECHNOLOGY CORP (ACM) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, reasonable valuation levels and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income."
Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.52, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.42, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- AECOM TECHNOLOGY CORP's earnings per share declined by 22.6% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, AECOM TECHNOLOGY CORP turned its bottom line around by earning $2.36 versus -$0.57 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.50 versus $2.36).
- Regardless of the drop in revenue, the company managed to outperform against the industry average of 13.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 5.9%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. When compared to other companies in the Construction & Engineering industry and the overall market, AECOM TECHNOLOGY CORP's return on equity is below that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.

Why I Cried
And Why You Should Read My Book
The confetti was coming down. People were chanting, yelling, "MVP! MVP!" Then I saw David Stern, the commissioner, out of the corner of my eye. They were bringing out the shiny trophy, the big golden ball. It was all happening so fast. Everything ,l ever wanted in basketball was right there in front of me on June 19, 2000, the night I had been waiting for since I first picked up a ball as a fiveyearold in Newark, New Jersey.
After we beat the Indiana Pacers in the sixth game of the NBA Finals and the Los Angeles Lakers had won their first title in twelve yearsand I had won my first everI remember Kobe Bryant leaping into my arms for a few seconds. Then I remember finding my family and friends. I remember my mother sharing the moment with me, right in the middle of the Staples Center floor. So many of the people I grew up with, going crazy, trying to tackle me. My threeyearold daughter kissing her daddy.
It all got to me.
When you're T1" and weigh 330something, you're supposed to be big and strong. You are supposed to take whatever people dish out and keep your emotions to yourself. But I needed to let it out. I needed to show people how I was feeling.
Back in 1992, when I first came into the league, it seemed like everyone embraced me and showered me with praise. How great I was going to be. How much I was going to mean to the game. Besides dominating people on a lot of nights, I was the big man who actually had fun and liked being around people.
But somewhere between my rookie year and the beginning of the 19992000 season, I became this player who in a lot of people's eyes had not lived up tohis potential. I became this guy who everybody thought cared only about making movies and rap albums.
Never mind that I was putting up big numbers, playing more hurt than anyone knew, and trying to find the right chemistry with my coaches and teammates. Never mind that I was trying to learn how to be an NBA champion. No one wanted to hear about that. After we lost four straight games to the eventual 1999 champion San Antonio Spurs, everybody wanted to talk about what I couldn't do, how Kobe and Shaq still hadn't grown up yet.
Whenever we lost, it was my fault, no matter what I did. I could have a great, monster playoffs, score 29 a game. But if we didn't win, it was, "Y'all got swept and Shaq wasn't playing hard." Nothing was said about the guys who weren't playing defense and I had to play my man, play Robinson, play Tim Duncan and play all these other guys. Just, "Sorryass Shaq. Doesn't work hard. Can't hit free throws. Can't guard the pickandroll. Can't do this. If he would have stopped doing damn movies and stopped showing off his personal chef on the chef channel, maybe he could win."
OK, when you're the best player on the team, you have to learn to take that kind of criticism. Everything falls on your shoulders. That's the way it is. When you have the good life like I do and make the kind of money I do, I guess you should be immune to criticism. But I'm not lying: I had a hard time with it. The criticism hurt. It made me realize: In this world, whatever you do, it's never enough. And that's how I felt.
And so that's why I cried when I won my first championship.
I didn't cry because I was happy, I cried because I was mad. It wasn't a release. It was the wildness of my father trying to get out, but the calmness of my mother taking over.
Inside, I was like, "Damn everybody that said I couldn't do it, that said I didn't know how to win." A lot of people think I was probably happy. No, I wasn't happy. I was getting my revenge on the critics. All you people that said all this stuff, "Shag couldn't do this, Shaq couldn't do that." Well, I did it. I proved you wrong. Now what you gonna say?
That's why I cried.
No one knows the struggles I went through to be standing on the court after we beat the Pacers. Where I really came from. How I tried to learn how to mesh my game with young superstar teammates like Kobe and Penny Hardaway. How no one in America hardly knew my name after my junior year of high school. After all the HackaShaq defenses, where the object was to basically foul the hell out of me and physically rough me up so I had to shoot free throws. After the abdominal injury I suffered two years ago that almost ended my career. Everything was coming back to me, and I let it all out.
Don't worry. I'm not angry anymore. I let go of it that night. I want to have fun and enjoy the rest of my career, whether I play two more seasons or five or more.
But the fact is, there's a lot I want to get across in this book, things I haven't talked about before. And when you read it, you'll get to know a little bit more about me. There's a saying that goes, "Don't always believe what you see on TV." All the marketing surrounding me shows me playing mean, dunking, acting crazy. I'm not really like thatoff the court. I've been mostly corporate because that's the politically correct thing to do. My agent, Leonard Armato, has been projecting and protecting my image ever since I've been in the league. He has done a great job. And I,would never secondguess him. But there's a part of me that doesn't feel like I've said the things I've really wanted to sayabout myself, different players, teammates, coaches and the NBA in general. I've held my tongue a lot over the eight years 'cause it's the diplomatic thing to do. But like that other commercial says, image is reality. And while I hope people see that I'm a nice, genuine person who loves children, who loves being nice to people, at the same time, I'm going to be voicing my opinion on certain issues, and it might not make me the most popular guy on the block.
All I can say is, I'm not trying to embarrass nobody.
I signed a contract extension worth $88.5 million before this season, which means I've got $152 million coming to me over the next seven years. I didn't do this book for money. I did it because I have something to say about my life and my career.
Living the NBA lifestyle is something most people can't possibly imagine. In these pages, I'm gonna try to bring that life home to you. All the stuff I'm talking about is legitimate. Nothing here is made up. This is what I see and how I see it.
Will this book be upsetting to some players in the league? Maybe. But just because I give my opinion on someone based on the time I played with or against him doesn't mean I don't like that person. My opinion can change just like people change over their careers.
Will this book be upsetting to some fans? I'm sure that adults can handle it, but I don't think the whole thing is suitable for children. I'll be honest, there's some cursing in here. Hey, I'm a grown man. I curse every now and then. If we, as parents, teach our children to be leaders and not followers, then they should grow up and be able to handle a few curse words. I want kids to be able to see people make a mistake and say, "You know what, I can't do that."
I k ©w people look up to me as a role model, and I have no problem with that. But I would rather be known as a "real model," someone with flaws and weaknesses, like everyone else.
One more thing. The first championship was just to get people off my back.
This next one? It's gonna be for me.
Where I Came From and How I
Got So Damn Big
I had to stop trickortreating when I was eleven years old. I was about 6'4" and when I would go to the door, people would just stand there, looking at me with their eyes wide open.
"You too big to be trickortreating, ain't you?" they would say.
By then, I had gotten used to people either making fun of my height or not believing me when I told them my age.
Already, I was scoring 40 and 50 points in youthleague games, and the other parents were just going crazy. "Damn it, he's not ten," they would say. "I want to see his birth certificate right now."
My mother could tell even more embarrassing stories, but I think the Halloween one hurt the most. It meant I could no longer dress up as Shaquandaeither this sexy girl or a grandma, depending on my mood. Most times it was a grandma, but for a few years, I would put on a wig and ugly lipstick, pretend I had these gigantic breasts. I already had this big ole ghetto booty. Even as a kid, I was a comedian. It was a good way to hide my insecurities about being so big.
I was born in Newark, New Jersey, on March 6, 1972, to Lucille Harrison, the most loyal and loving and sacrificing mother anyone could ever know. I'm biased, sure, but you have to know where the story begins.
My mother's family was from Dublin, Georgia. My greatgrandmother, Cillar O'Neal, got married in 1930 at the age of 15 to my greatgrandfather, Hilton O'Neal, who was a farmer.
How do I get to be T1"? I never met Hilton O'Neal but I was told he was 6'8" or 6'9" tall.
My grandpa Johnny, on the other side of the family, was a farmer, too. He was also about 6'9". My mother's father, Sirlester, is about 6'4" or 6'5".
Cillar, or "Muma" as we call my greatgrandmother, grew up in a much different world than I ever knew. Her father killed himself at the age of fortyfive, supposedly over another woman. Muma grew up on a farm in Dublin. She picked cotton and pulled corn as a young woman. In those times, she'll tell you straightup: white folks didn't associate with black people. Hilton, her husband, passed away in 1965. She never remarried. Muma is eightythree and going strong today in Newark. She can still cook up a storm of Southern food, from blackeyed peas, to collard greens, corn bread, and any kind of pie you can imagine.
Anyway, she gave birth to three children: Reba Mae, Ruby Lee, and my grandfather, Sirlester O'Neal, father of my mother, Lucille. Sirlester married my late grandmother, Odessa Chambliss, who ,passed away on April 2, 1996, after a long bout with cancer.
Grandma Odessa was, and is, one of the biggest inspirations in my life. Muma always said my grandmother respected her and was one of the kindest women in the world.
One of the mosttold stories about me growing up is about Muma and my dad. When I was about three years old and my father was trying to make me hard and not be a baby, Muma used to sneak me a milk bottle at bedtime. She had a little stash of them for me hid in her bedroom. So one time my father snatched me and snatched the bottle and started yelling at me.
"Leave that boy alone!" Muma said. And then she took her shoe and hit him in his head. Just popped him, right in the head.
Yeah, Muma was tough. Still is.
I had a pretty interesting childhood. You could label me from the 'hood, or you could label me an army brat. Either way, you'd be right. I don't remember much from ages zero to two. However, when I got to the age of five and my brothers and sisters were Harrisons and my last name was O'Neal, I asked my mother how come my last name was different. My mother explained to me that she used to date a guy named Joe Toney, who had been a basketball player. He was my biological father.
Joe Toney had been a student at Seton Hall University, who got caught up with the wrong crowd. Since my mom and Joe were never married, she gave me her last name, O'Neal. For our sakes, she left him alone. And so for those first two years, it was just me and my mother.
My mother used to drop me off at a daycare center. She worked at City Hall.
One day she met this guy while she was walking down a streeta nice, cleancut gentleman who had two kids of his own named Philip Harrison. He was a college student and an allaround good guy. He addressed her, began to make conversation. They were . . . blase, blase for a number of months. OK, they fell in love, got married and he joined the army.
When I was five, we moved to Bayonne, New Jersey. That's where my father really began disciplining me. He spanked me. He made me hard. He made me a man from day one. I'll admit, I was a little soft as a childand very spoiled.
It was hard coming up, but he taught me and my brothers and sisters not to worry about materialistic items. At times he couldn't pay the rent. At night he would have to go to a UHaul trucking job. Some nights, I've seen him not even sleep.
We were often short on money. Mom was working; he was working. But I don't think they cleared $30,000 a year back then. He also had two daughters from another relationship that he had to take care of. At night, he would drive UHaul trucks to New York, New Jersey to deliver things, and then come back. I could see he was a hard worker and he was responsible for his family.
He also taught me how to play every sport. Baseball. Basketball. How to go out there and just have fun and play. Muma always said I was born to play ball, that I was always running around with a football or basketball. My first love was football, but I couldn't catch; I was scared of the ball.
"Don't catch the ball when I throw it," Dad told me one time. Then he threw it, and the ball hit me in the face.
He said, "You see that? That's the worst thing it can do to you. It's gonna hurt for a second, but it ain't gonna hurt bad. Don't be scared of the ball."
To this day, I believe that's why I have good hands.
As I grew older, I started to wonder about my biological father. My mother took me to meet Joe Toney in Newark when I was about nine or ten years old. I think she just wanted me to see him, how he was.
I remember he lived in a little apartment. Didn't have much. We didn't really go into how long he went to jail. He just told me he went to Seton Hall and got caught up in things. After that visit, I never asked to see him again. Phil was the one who took care of me. He was the only father I knew.
The next time I saw Joe Toney's face was about six years ago. I was playing on a team representing the United States 'in the World Championships in 1994. One day, walking down the street in Chicago, this guy said to me, "You need to talk to your dad. I saw him on the Ricki Lake show."
Phil does a lot of crazy stuff, so I called Mom. "What did Daddy do now?"
She said, "It ain't him, it's Joe Toney. He got on TV."
He was on the show with his little son. "I just want to meet my brother, I love my brother. I just want to get to meet him," the kid said
Then Joe came on and said, "Yeah, Shaquille is my son. I just want to let him know that I miss him."
We later found out that he was living in Jersey City, New Jersey. My halfbrother told me that's why he tried to contact me.
It seemed like there were always reminders of him. I met this guy
in Las Vegas one time who came up to me and said, "Yo, I'm your brother."
I thought he meant he was my fraternity brother. "No," he said. "Joe Toney's my father."
He showed me his picture. He pulled me off to the side and said, "I know what he was trying to do because he never tried to contact me ever. He never said nothing to me. So I know why he tried to contact you."
I just want to
He said, "I'm your brother, I don't want nothing. let you know we got the same father." .
I met this other kid in Newark one time. Same thing. "Joe Toney's my father."
Somebody asked me if I hate him. No, I don't hate him. I'm just going straight. My path was selected. I was tutored by Phil. I'm going that way. I have no desire to see him again.

This book is a definite page-turner. I have to admit that once I started this book I couldn't put it down. I read the whole thing in one sitting. All that he had to say about his childhood, and his life on and off the court was all very interesting, but his book is massively repetative. This book seems like the first draft of something that needs to undergo several revisions. There are several pieces of information that he repeats over and over. In fact, at one point he even repeated the same piece of information twice on the same page. This book is a little over 250 pages in length, but he could have cut that number in half and still gotten his message across. However, Shaq is an athlete, and not an author, so it doesn't make sense to be overly critical. This is still a great book that I would highly recommend.
Im the BIGGEST Shaq fan ever. I got this book when it released, and still can't put it down. I play basketball and he's my idole. He the greatest who will ever play. Period.
When I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down until the end. Shaq's very honest about his feeling and his words reveal it all. Great read for Shaq and Lakers fans.
the book is a great. he tells alot about his childhood and his life as an superstar. Im the ultimate SHAQ-FAN and im only 13. I hope to meet Shaq one day, but the book is great.
This book is so good.It tells all about Shaq. It helps to understand him. And it shows what he's been through. And he still came out a strong man. This would be a good book for young men to read.
Shaq's book is very interesting. It told me things that I wanted to know[NBA dirt and such]. It was way better than i thought it would be because even if you're not a hardcore basketball fan you'll still like it because it goes beyond the court and into his personal life. So if you don't have it I suggest you go out and get it.
I recommend this book to EVERYONE it is awesome, I haven't been able to put it down, GO OUT AND BUY IT. You will not be disappointed. Shaq really lets it all go in this book.
I thought this book was awesome. I think Shaq is a great player, person, and a role model. I totally like his style! He seems like a cool guy. I like his perspectives in the book; it made me look at his life in a totally different way! Basketball is the best. Go Lakers!!!
Shaq is a good author, but an even better player, the book gives good insight to his career in and out of basketball.
This book is outstanding

World Fashion
Fashion is the style and custom prevalent at a given time. In its most common usage however, "fashion" describes the popular clothing style. Many fashions are popular in many cultures at any given time. Important is the idea that the course of design and fashion will change more rapidly than the culture as a whole. Fashion designers create and produce clothing articles.
The terms "fashionable" and "unfashionable" were employed to describe whether someone or something fits in with the current or even not so current, popular mode of expression. However, more so in the modern era items termed 'not so current' may indeed fit into the term 'Retro.' Retro fashion allows rule shifts, such as 'old is suddenly new,' thus fashionable. The term "fashion" is frequently used in a positive sense, as a synonym for glamour, beauty and style[citation needed]. In this sense, fashions are a sort of communal art, through which a culture examines its notions of beauty and goodness. The term "fashion" is also sometimes used in a negative sense, as a synonym for fads and trends, and materialism.
There exist a number of cities recognized as global fashion centers or fashion capitals. Fashion Weeks are held in these cities where designers exhibit their new clothing collections to audiences. The main five cities are Tokyo, London, Paris, Milan and New York - these five are renowned for their major influence on global fashion and are headquarters to the greatest fashion companies. Other cities, including Los Angeles, Berlin, Rome, Hong Kong, Moscow, Madrid, Toronto, São Paulo, Melbourne, Osaka, Seoul, Daegu and Singapore also hold fashion weeks and are better recognized every year.

Jeff's HOH tweets:
Big Brother HOH

2 hours ago
Big Brother HOH
wonder if there is any BIG news we missed in here? im sure there was, wonder who died? is that bad? yes but still big news right...
24 Aug
Big Brother HOH
hey everybody its big jeff, this weeks HOH winner! wish i had something cool to tweet about, like the NFL lockout? is it over? has to be?
24 Aug
"Just a little faith and both your feet leave the ground"
I can't wait for @RachelEReilly to win HOH and shut these b****** up!
"Just a little faith and both your feet leave the ground"
Lydia: I love seeing Jordan go off and tell everyone what she thinks..... YES!!!! GET EM GIRL!!!!! Fingers crossed CHEST BUMP
"Just a little faith and both your feet leave the ground"
Shelly's twitter feed (@outdoorfx) is being hammered with hate.
"Just a little faith and both your feet leave the ground"
Holy crap I just checked out her twitter and people have really turned on her, me included. She's gone from America's favorite to the gutter. I think she's gonna be in for a big surprise when she gets out. As much as I despise her I hope people leave poor Josie out of it. You know how kids can be so mean to each other.
"Never fry bacon in the nude"
I don't think there's any chance of that happening. The magnitude of Shelly's nastiness once she turned will rock their whole world and she AND her family are going to be dealing with the consequences. I'm not making threats because I don't care enough about any of it to so much as tweet, but there are many, many, many people who do care very much.
Count your blessings!
Has ED tweeted anything about Dani's eviction?
"Being famous does not make you a hero." Zeus in Hercules
ED's tweets were mainly about Dani deserved to go for her stupid game moves (and that she was NOT backdoored)...and that Jeff also deserved to go because of his ego...and that he hopes Jordan is next out

Is Ubuntu Linux a Sensible Alternative for Mac Users?
A friend of mine phoned to ask if I thought he should install Ubuntu Linux on his Macs - a 1.33 GHz G4 iBook currently running OS X 10.4 "Tiger" and a 1.25 GHz Power Mac G4 tower with OS X 10.3 "Panther" installed.
My friend had read a feature in the local newspaper extolling the virtues of Ubuntu Linux and thought it sounded interesting.
Ubuntu is a other project dedicated to making Linux user-friendly enough to be used as a mainstream desktop OS, and it's arguably the most successful iteration toward that objective to date. Ubuntu supports Intel/AMD PC hardware as well as Power PC Macs.
Does Ubuntu Linux make any sense for Macintosh users?
In my friend's case, I would say no, and I did.

Hi, This has no doubt been asked before, but I've searched the forum and can't see a straight answer. It's true the allroad is a hell of a car, but I live at the back of a farm, and when the track I have to drive on (30 degree incline) to get to our house gets a snow covering in winter, or when I'm towing my bike trailor with two motocross bikes to a enduro event usually in a farmers field, the pirelli p6 allroad tyres let the car down badly. I know these tyres are road tyres, but no-one seems to be able to suggest or offer an off road tyre. Is there a off road tyre I can fit to a spare set of wheels so I can switch them over accordingly? I don't want a compromise tyre. Rick
Hi, I'm from the UK, and I'm living in Canada at the moment, and I've bought an 2001 Allroad 2.7T. I drove from Toronto to the other side of Canada, to British Columbia, on the standard Allroad tyres. When I started driving on snow covered roads I found that they were not very good, the traction control light often flashed etc. I changed them for some proper winter tyres, some Toyo Garit KX. They made such a difference in snow, no traction control lights and loads of grip, and the car isn't noisy and seems to handle the same on dry rooads. I don't know if these tyres are available in the UK, but try to get something similar. Hope this helps. Andrew

Becoming A Student
Estheticians Are In Great Demand
"Employment of skincare specialists is projected to grow 40 percent from 2012 to 2022, much faster than the average for all occupations.
The increase in employment reflects demand for new services being offered, such as minisessions (quick facials at a lower cost) and mobile facials (making house calls). In addition, the desire among women and a growing number of men to reduce the effects of aging and to lead a healthier lifestyle through better grooming, including skin treatments for relaxation and well-being, should result in employment growth". -Bureau of Labor Statistics
Nail Technicians Are In Great Demand
A quick look on Craigslist will illustrate just how many job opportunities await newly graduated Nail Technicians. Among those seeking to employ our Manicurists include but are not limited to Gene Juarez Salons & Spas, Julep, Pro Sports Club just to name a few.

Flexibility is Key
Aesthetics Northwest's unique approach offers small class sizes, flexible schedules, and one-on-one instruction. Be prepared for success in whatever field you choose.
Aesthetics Northwest Institute, Inc. was founded in 1986 out of the need for a training program which would be taught independently from the cosmetology and beauty schools. This allowed the Institute to develop a much more extensive, comprehensive and sophisticated curriculum than any other school in the region.
A career in Esthetics and/or Nail Technology-Manicuring no longer means attending a cosmetology school or beauty school. Instead, it means being a part of the network of sophisticated and respected professionals. Qualified Estheticians and Nail Technicians-Manicurist can count on a solid income complemented by the satisfaction of a profession that empowers their clients to feel more confident and secure in all facets of their life. Specialization opportunities within the profession offer countless career options for qualified individuals.
Students who attend Aesthetics Northwest Institute, Inc. will find small classes limited to only 6 to 8 students per class, which allows for much more one on one and hands on with their instructors (other schools may have 20 students per class). This enables the student to interact more directly with their instructors and receive dedicated personalized attention that is just not available from other schools in the region. This gives every student the opportunity to interact more directly with their instructors. As this is a new career for most students we feel it necessary that the individual needs of each student are addressed in order to prepare you to become successful in your future and in life.
At Aesthetics Northwest, every student's experience is unique. You'll be able to spend time focusing on areas that interest you most.

Nearly 70,000 wheat bags are missing from an open PUNGRAIN godown at Jhikka road in Banga sub-division. Each bag contained around 50 kg wheat.
Considering the large number of bags, sources said the siphoning off the bags would have begun six-seven months ago. How did this escape the attention of officials is something that will haunt them.
The misappropriation was detected during physical verification of the stock by the district food and supply controller, Baljinder Singh Dhillon.
There is a possibility that the number of bags missing could be as high as 80,000.
Reacting to the information, the food and supply department has suspended Yashpal Singh, an inspector with PUNGRAIN, with immediate effect.
A fact-finding committee has also been formed to look into the incident. Food and supply department (Ropar) deputy director KC Kajal has been appointed as the inquiry officer.
An HT team reached the godown on Saturday morning and found that employees were calculating the number of wheat bags.
Talking to HT Dhillon said, "I have given a preliminary report to department. The department is conducting an inquiry."
When questioned, inquiry officer Kajal said that the truth and the exact modus operandi of the scam would come out soon.
He denied comment on whether other employees could be involved. Deputy commissioner Tanu M Kashyap said, "Dhillon has informed her about the situation. Banga Market committee secretary Mohinder Pal Sharma and Banga naib tehsildar JP Salwan have been deputed to assist the district food and supply department."
