The merger of behavioral neurology and neuropsychiatry into a single medical subspecialty, Behavioral Neurology & Neuropsychiatry, requires an understanding of brain-behavior relationships and a clinical approach that transcends the traditional perspectives of neurology and psychiatry. Designed as a primer of concepts and principles, and authored by a multidisciplinary group of internationally known clinical neuroscientists, this book divides into three sections: • Structural and Functional Neuroanatomy (Section I) addresses the neuroanatomy and phenomenology of cognition, emotion, and behavior • Clinical Assessment (Section II) describes neuropsychiatric history taking, neurological and mental status examinations, neuropsychological assessment, and neuroimaging, electrophysiologic, and laboratory methods • Treatment (Section III) discusses environmental, behavioral, rehabilitative, psychological, social, pharmacological, and procedural interventions for cognitive, emotional, and behavioral disorders. By emphasizing the principles of Behavioral Neurology & Neuropsychiatry, this book will improve your understanding of brain-behavior relationships and inform your care of patients and families affected by neurobehavioral disorders.Read more
- A section devoted to treatment gives practical clinical guidance about the different options available
- Emphasis on basic principles lays the foundation for a high standard of patient care
- Contributors from clinical, scientific and academic backgrounds give readers a broad range of perspectives on the subjects addressed
Reviews & endorsements
'This superb book is the most complete and comprehensive publication on this subject to date. It is essential reading for all who call themselves behavioral neurologists or neuropsychiatrists. It is also an essential reference for the care of patients who suffer from neuropsychiatric disorders.' Doody's ReviewsSee more reviews
'This book is likely to become the standard textbook for programs offering subspecialty training in behavioural neurology and neuropsychiatry. I consider it to be an excellent volume and would strongly recommend it to psychiatrists with subspecialty interest in the interface between neurology and psychiatry.'

If you're like most people, you want to live a life of purpose … a life of meaning. You want your life to count.
I can help you with that.
But before we begin, I want you to know where I'm coming from. Out of respect for your time and your convictions, I want you to know up front:
This website and its blog commentary may not be for you.
The Top 6 Reasons this blog may not be for you. If you believe:
- that the world is limited to a material reality.
- that, through science, answers can be found that will lead to living a healthier, happier, and longer life.
- that this world was formed by a process of evolution. That, through the survival of the fittest, we observe the creatures that exist today.
- that there was no being that pre-existed before, or was involved in, creation.
- that there was no intelligence that foresaw the design and was participant in it.
- that spiritual beliefs are mythical systems that hold to the existence of non-material states of being, including a human soul.
If you're still with me and open-minded to further discussion, I invite you to come along on this exciting journey.
Let's get going!
About the integration of science and theology
Throughout this website, commentaries, observations, and other content will integrate science and theology. The science of consciousness — the belief that the non-material exists: self, spirit, soul, identity, mind — may not be consistent with pure science. (The science of consciousness seeks to explain non-material phenomena.) That scientific perspective still hopes to find where mind, self, or identity originates in the brain.
Bernard Baars stated that …
"brain proves mind"
… based on scientific evidence:
- We talk to our self in our brain.
- We see pictures in our head.
- We recognize emotions related to our experiences.
- We understand through our senses.
- We recognize the energy required to maintain attention.
- We know we know something, but not sure how it relates.
Dr. Routley finds congruence between faith and science. In his educated opinion …
… scientists are observing the Creator's handiwork even though they may not acknowledge Him.

Daily Devotions: One Way
From Go For the Green by Jeff Hopper
One Way
Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name. –Psalm 86:11
In the world of professional golf, the relationship between a player and his teacher can be precarious. If the player, who does the hiring, is not performing well, he may head off to find another mentor.
In life, however, if we have chosen God as our teacher, we must stick with Him. In the flawless world He created, trust was complete. Adam and Eve lacked no confidence in their Creator. Until the seed of independent possibility was sown in them— "Here's a decision you can make without God"— they had no gross pride or distrust.
Ever since that first I-can-do-this-on-my-own act of sin, God has worked to restore trust to His people. It is a simple message: "Follow Me, follow only Me, and you can count on knowing all you need to know." David, in Psalm 86, told God yes, he would follow.
Let's make David's decision our decision.

Diabetic retinopathy is the result of two processes regarding the blood vessels of the retina - blood vessel closure and abnormal vessel permeability.
Retinal blood vessel closure
The capillaries are usually the first to suffer from vessel closure. They are very important for healthy retina because they supply the oxygen and carry away carbon dioxide and waste. As the oxygen supply decreases to certain parts of the retina, the adjacent capillaries dilate, causing microaneurysms. These microaneurysms are visible as tiny red dots in an ophthalmologic exam.
Nonperfusion or localized closure of retinal capillaries is not easy to notice by the patient, unless it is in the center of the retina, where it reduces the vision. In more severe cases, retinal capillary closure can lead to proliferative diabetic retinopathy, in which new blood vessels are formed. These new vessels are fragile and bleed easily, leaving small scars on the retina.
In addition to capillary closure, small arteries or arterioles in the retina can also close off, leading to reduced blood supply and small, white dots or patches in the retina.
Abnormal vessel permeability
The blood vessels in the retina are different from those in other parts of the body. While most blood vessels have tiny openings that allows fluid to pass through the wall, retinal blood vessels have tight junctions between the cells in the wall, so the liquid has to pass trough the cells. In diabetic retinopathy, the blood vessel walls become more permeable, meaning that fluids, fats, proteins, blood cells and other larger molecules can pass through the walls and leak into the retina. If the fluid accumulates in the center of the retina, it is called macular edema or diabetic maculopathy. This leads to the formation of yellow clumps or spots called exudates. While the water gets absorbed quickly in the retinal tissue, fat takes a lot more time to be absorbed and leaves marks in form of rings.
In non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, this swelling or edema is considered serious only if it is located at the areas where it causes difficulties with vision. If there is a need for it, it can be solved with laser eye surgery.

Cred App : Detailed Review
I love putting all my daily spends on credit cards to get reward points and cashback, however, the most boring part is making credit card bill payments, simply because there are no cash backs or reward points for it. However, this has now changed. By using Cred app, one gets rewards for making credit card payments. Cred app is founded by Kunal Shah, the founder of Freecharge which was eventually sold to Axis Bank.
Well, the basic model of Freecharge, Cred app remains the same; use the app, do some transaction and get rewards for it.
In this post, I will provide a detailed review of Cred app, its pros and cons and ways to maximise returns. Along the way will also give my take on which features to use and which ones to avoid.

|Our home-made baklava ... sooo good!
This particular holiday is known locally as Kurban Bajram, meaning the 'Festival of Sacrifice', which, as I have previously told you, is due to the Islamic belief that Ibrahim (Abraham) was ready to sacrifice his son to God.
The day began much like the previous Bajram holiday - which, actually, was only 2 months and 7 days prior - with thousands of Muslim men (even those who don't attend on any other day of the year) from across Zenica flocking to the mosques for morning prayer.
(I was intending on travelling down to the local mosque to take some of my own photos of the crowds, but a lack of sleep combined with freezing weather made me decide to simply opt for the professional photos used by local media outlets!)
As is tradition, whilst the men were present at the morning prayer, the women of each household were busy preparing a morning meal to be consumed by all when the men arrived home.
|Once again, thousands packed several of Zenica's mosques -
even ending up on public squares and streets outside.
(Source: ZenicaBlog)
At our apartment, my partner and her mother made a delicious burek, along with some other foods and salads, and it was simply fantastic. After an early 7am wake-up, a good feed was just what I needed! (Mind you, I did head back to bed for an hour-long snooze afterwards!)
Once the afternoon came, it was time to visit other sections of the family. So, as is tradition for Bajram in this part of the world, we kitted up in some new, fancy clothes, and headed to the beautiful family house which is situated atop one of Zenica's hills.
For several hours we joked around, ate ridiculous amounts of food, smoked cigarettes (not me, mum!), and listened to various styles of Bosnian folk music.
Time flew by and, before I knew it, it started to become dark outside, thus; it was time to head home.
However, once we arrived back at our apartment, we did not have long to relax, as it was once again time to head out; this time, to a home of family friend's.
|Kitted up in my (admittedly unusual) attire
for the day. Mind the bits of rubbish around
me; fair to say I didn't notice it at the time!
Upon reflection, the whole Bajram day revolved around togetherness and catching up with people of whom we don't often have the chance to. As my fiancé suggested to me when we were walking back home last night, 'Isn't that what this day is all about?'
For those of you back home, outside the religious beliefs upon which they are celebrating, the day really shares much commonality with the day of Christmas. (Although, sadly for some of us, there are not two celebrations of Christmas within two months of each other!)
As I said, this Bajram, along with the last, was such a fantastic experience for me, and one for which I am incredibly appreciative. Being able to first-hand witness how so many people could put aside whatever issues were going on in their lives and come to celebrate together as such really resonated with me.
Although I will do my best to try and replicate these Bajram celebrations when I return to Australia, I honestly cannot wait to experience the holiday here in Bosnia again one day.
Hopefully, when that time comes, I have worked out how to pronounce "Bajram barecula" just that little bit more fluently.
Bajram serif mubarek olsun to everyone who celebrated, and I hope your day was at least half as good as mine was!

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is an essential component of any electronics and data-driven device or system. Be it in the comfort of your bedroom, or working in a large corporation, you can see an Eaton UPS present in every device or room. Rackmount UPS's are a common sight at data centers, but you can find Standalone Central UPS units on almost all major private or government corporations and institutions. Which has a more practical advantage?
Rackmount UPS
These are decentralized or distributed UPS. Servers and networking applications commonly use them. Each unit can be mounted safely on a standard 19" rack. They are installed together with the hardware.
Standalone Central UPS
It is a centralized standby set-up consisting of one or two large UPS's. You can find it alongside the perimeter of the server room, or in a separate site within the vicinity.
Advantages :
The initial cost of investment for Rackmount UPS is considerably low. You do not need an electrician to install it, and it's easier to operate. You can do the maintenance of your facility. It is lightweight and portable. These are great for small companies or organizations.
They designed the Standalone Central UPS for high availability environments. It means it is effortlessly scalable from more than 10 kW. It has a longer battery life, which goes from 5-6 years. It has higher efficiency and can maximize three power phases. The batteries are hot-swappable. These are great for large companies with critical-missions operations.
Rackmount UPS's are not for mission-critical equipment. It takes up valuable rack space. It has limited back-up time and limited battery life, ranging from two (2) to three (3) years only. It is not as effective as 3-phase UPS. Batteries may not be hot-swappable. It is also very difficult to manage the system because of the inefficiency of the design.
Standalone Central UPS has a higher upfront investment. It requires a contractor to guarantee apt installation. It also needs a large area for the standalone unit. Scheduled maintenance is also essential and mandatory. Its biggest drawback is its energy inefficiency.

MT4 ECN trading with Cryptocurrency CFDs • FXOpen
FXOpen Review
FXOpen is an FCA regulated MT4 broker which provides ECN trading across a range of markets. It has a no dealing desk model, and does not reject or requote orders. It allows trading such as scalping, automated and high frequency trading. Furthermore it has a relatively wide range of Cryptocurrency CFDs available.
ECN tradingFXOpen has three account types, ECN, STP and Crypto. STP does not charge commissions, ECN does, as does Crypto for cryptocurrencies. FXOpen allows traders to access the Interbank market, by aggregating Interbank prices. It sends orders to this market. This market is composed of direct participants such as banks and institutions and indirect participants, such as clients trading through their broker into this market. In a dealing desk model, the trader trades with the broker, and the broker becomes the counterparty to their trades (and may hedge this trade in the Interbank market).
There are both positives and negatives to this (or any) model. For example, ECN trading is typically composed of market execution orders, which can thus have slippage, that is the order may be filled at a different price. A dealing desk broker may (but not necessarily will) be able to provide no or reduced slippage, as they are filling the order. However when the order is sent to the Interbank market, the broker does not determine the filled price, and slippage can happen.
One way ECN brokers try to deal with this, is to provide very fast order processing, to reduce the latency or delay between the client placing the order and it being filled. This can be facilitated by co-locating the broker's trading servers physically near finance hubs, where the Interbank liquidity providers operate electronically. For this purpose, FXOpen uses Equinix's NY4 Data Centre (located in New York).
But a dealing desk broker may reject an order or may requote it (instead of providing slippage). Whether this is an issue for a client, may depend on what style of trading they use. The broker may restrict the style of trading used by the client. But this is normally for styles such as scalping and high frequency trading (which may not be suitable for a dealing desk model or many traders). However FXOpen simply sends orders, it does not intervene in the order process, thus all styles are in effect allowed. Its high speed order processing, makes some styles feasible. But if the client wants to trade without a commission charge, they can use the STP account.
What is the minimum deposit ?
The minimum deposit is $300, £200 or €300. FXOpen.
What are the Commission charges ?
Commissions are charged on the ECN account, not the STP account. The Crypto account charges commissions for cryptocurrencies. The Forex commission charge varies according to account equity and traded volume, from $1.5 per lot per side to $5 per lot per side.
What trading platform is available ?
FXOpen provides MT4. This platform is how the client trades on the Interbank market through FXOpen. When the trader first opens MT4 on FXOpen, they will find an interface with a group of charts. These charts can be customised with time frames from 1 minute to monthly, candlestick, bar or line charts, and a range of technical indicators, and other tools.
By clicking on View and then Symbols a full list of markets available can be found. By right clicking on the symbol list and choosing spread, the spread for each market can be found. As can be seen, this can change, indicating a variable spread. This platform is available on desktop for download, as a web trader, and as apps for tablet and mobile trading.
What markets are available ?
The range of markets offered depends on the account. The ECN accounts has the widest range, covering Forex, Indices, Energy and Precious Metals (Gold and Silver), with 65+ available. The STP account has Forex and Precious Metals, with 50+. The Crypto account has Forex, Precious Metals and Cryptocurrencies, for a total of 60+.
Can Cryptocurrencies be traded at FXOpen ?
Cryptocurrencies are typically traded on exchanges, and can exhibit wide variations in price, sometimes in short periods of time (i.e. they can be extremely volatile). When a trader buys a cryptocurrency on an exchange, they normally own it and need to store it electronically (for example in a Wallet). However FXOpen offers Cryptocurrency CFD trading.
CFD trading is a way to speculate on price movement, without owning the underlying asset. Thus when buying a selling a Cryptocurrency CFD, the trader does not own any cryptocurrency and does not need to store it. However, as they are speculating on the price movement of the cryptocurrency, they are still subject to highly volatile price movements.
FXOpen provides Cryptocurrency CFD trading on its Crypto account and charges commissions of 0.5% per side (1% round turn), in addition to the variable spread. Like with other markets, FXOpen does not restirct trading styles, meaning that cryptocurrencies can be news traded or traded with automated strategies.
What cryptocurencies are offered ?
FXOpen offers Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, DASH, Ripple, EOS, IOTA, Monero, NEO, OMNI, NameCoin, PeerCoin and Emercoin. It offers these as pairs: crosses with currencies and each other, for a total of 35+.
What is the maximum leverage ?
Maximum leverage at FXOpen (FCA regulated) is for Forex. For other products leverage can be lower. For Cryptocurrency CFDs, maximum leverage is 1:2 at FXOpen (FCA regulated).
How may a trader fund their account ?
The client can fund their account by bank wire transfer, credit/debit cards, China UnionPay, WebMoney, Neteller, Skrill and Payza. FXOpen does not charge a fee to deposit or withdraw using debit and credit cards or for GBP bank wire withdrawals. Other methods can incur deposit and withdrawal fees.
What account currencies are available ?
The client can open an account in GBP, USD or EUR.
What is the minimum trade size ?
The minimum trade size is 0.01 lots (including for cryptocurrencies).
For a minimum deposit of $300, FXOpen gives the client access to ECN, STP and Cryptocurrency CFD trading, on different accounts. The number of Forex pairs provided (45+) is about average. The range of markets is competitive with other ECN brokers (but less than some spread betting and CFD dealing desk brokers in the UK). But it has an above average (in terms of numbers of cryptocurrencies and number of crosses) offering of Cryptocurrency CFDs. As an ECN broker it gives traders the opportunity to trade markets free from restrictions on trading styles, with high speed order processing.

Yamaha V-Star XVS650A Classic
Brilliant Motorcycle
I bought my XVS 650 V Star Classic Cruiser 10 months ago and I have never been happier with a motorcycle. It has plenty of power to get me around with lots of hill climbing torque. It is happy to cruise around at 60, 65 mph all day. I have toured on this bike with a lot of gear and it just takes it all in its stride with no problems at all. I love riding this motorcycle and I would buy another one of of them.
Purchased in January 2006 at Bought privatly.

She's my Harley Quinn
So...I have been motorcycles since I was 13 years old....I am now 55 years old. I have owned a CBR600
F4I a Vrod and a Sportster with a 1200
CC engine. I now own and ride my 650 VStar which I bought used. The bike has a windshield and after market pipes. I rode this thing from IL to CO in two days. The bike never missed a beat. 55 MPG but top speed......was 75 MPH. That's enough on interstate 80. I stayed at 70 most of the time. The forks are too soft and the bike needs another gear. The power is ok and the clutch sucks. Other than that....she's a great bike. Another gear more power and stiffer suspension and it's a perfect bike. I am 55 and weigh 180 pounds. I love this bike.
Purchased in March 2017 at The CPAP Clinic Physical store for $1,500.00.

Have owned Many -Great Bike
We have customized over 250 Yamaha XVS650 Classics and Customs. These bikes are the Toyota Corolla of the bike world. They are pretty much indestructible. Parts are easy to find and are cheap. There are also more and more custom parts and features becoming available for this model. Could do with an extra gear on the highway. But definately the best LAMS approved bike.

Great bike - not just for ladies or learners
Bought this as a near new second hand to replace the 250 Virago. The 650 is used as a daily driver to travel to work and back. Also used on weekend rides.
Excellent low centre of gravity and very stable in cross winds
Surprisingly good fuel economy
Comfy saddle - the whole bike is no frills, but oozes class.
I really really wish it had a sixth gear; the bike wants to keep pulling away in fifth but just starts getting too revvy.

Perfect for what it is.
As far as value for money goes, the XVS650A is awesome. Bike looks good and has a high quality finish. Comfortable ride with a relaxed riding position. Over time you may yearn for a bit more power - it is a LAMS bike after all, but is still more than adequate.

Just Picked Up My New Toy
I am a returning user to the motorcycle world after a 27 year absence, I just picket up my 2009 Yamaha V-Star XVS650 Classic, under 700 verified miles on the clock, condition is 99.99% perfect ( small scuff on front fender). The bike is stock and I have got my shopping list ordered and waiting for the postman or woman to drop of my goodies. Even stock it is getting some admiring looks. It looks much bigger than a 650 and handles like a kitten. Very happy to be back in the saddle.

mixed feelings
riding this bike was a experience and fantastic to learn on however mine went through 3 clutches in 6 month period buying a brand new classic from the dealer which broke my heart I can fairly say I would be still riding that bike today as it's certainly a bike you feel badass on for a learner

If you are going to M1, don't buy it
Bought a 2014 and I was extremely happy while using it on the Gold Coast at 80Kph max to do the home-work commute. As soon as I moved to Byron and started riding it much more on the M1 than in town the frustration started to happen. At 100Kph the rev was already high and then at 110kph I would say that it was screaming. Also, my hands would get numb after 15 minutes riding at that condition. Apart from that the bike was very stable and comfy to hide. Perfect bike for learners. Seating position was very relaxed, easy to do the corners and lots of power in low torque. Fuel economy was around 20Km/l. Anyway, I am happier with my scooter Aprilia Scarabeo 200ie for the M1 ride...believe or not.

Great Learners Bike
2013 VStar 650 I got this as my 1st ever bike, and can quite frankly say im glad i got the larger 650 over a 250, the bigger size makes you feel more confident and comfortable on the road, the larger engine gives enough power to keep up with others (sits nicely on 120kph in 5th gear, can go to 140 any more i would say is pushing the engine to much).

Great bike and cheap on parts.
I bought this bike 2 years ago in a decent state and now I've converted it to a bobber. It was cheap to do and easy to install new parts. There are a lot of options out there for making your bike different to others and get the heads turning. Couldn't be happier.

Can't be faulted
I purchased a 2010 Vstar as my first bike with the idea of it being my apprenticeship into the bigger cruisers, but I could quite easily have kept hold of it for many more years (I didn't however). Sitting towards the top of the Learner market price range it is certainly well worth the extra cash as it does give the feeling you are riding a bigger bike. I used this bike as a work commuter (City traffic), a run around to the shops, and a weekend tourer and it excelled in all 3. I was surprised how much get up and go it had and it could certainly...Read morekeep the pace down the Old Pacific Hwy on a Sunday morning with 100's of other bikes. Reliability was fantastic and it never failed to start or give me the slightest bit of trouble. With no branding on it I have lost count how many times people (non riders) would ask if it was a Harley, I would say the aftermarket Vance and Hines short shorts certainly contributed to this......the sound was fantastic in the lo rev range. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a laid back classic looking bike or as I mentioned, an intro into the bigger cruiser market. Absolutely faultless.

Second time around
I too am getting on a bit and am 77yo. My second bike ago was the same model and I was persuaded to buy the YamahaMT07 which is an excellent bike but due to health problems with my legs and ankles found it to difficult to ride easily. So taking advantage of the current price reduction, down from $12000 to 95 ride away which produced an acceptable change over and I returned to the XVS650 Classic which is also an excellent bike that I had such pleasure on previously. It is so comfortable to ride with its running boards and toe and heel pedals. It...Read morehas a nice seat and handle bar relationship. very smooth gear shift and good rear brake. The front brake is a bit under done and needs plenty of pressure for rapid deceleration but used with a different balance, more back brake gets the job done without panic.The engine has a fair degree of vibration using a single crank pin but you soon get used to it. My previous XVS had straight through exhaust pipes which I loved and will most likely install on this one once its run in. To sum up its a great machine and not only suited to LAM's riders but would satisfy anyone looking for a top bike of the cruiser style and the quality of production is second to none with its paintwork and chrome.

Absolutely love it!
I bought this bike after my husband passed away as a bit of therapy. It has outperformed anything I've owned before, runs on the smell of an oily rag, and is very low maintenance as well as being the most comfortable bike I've owned. This bike has been a gem, although a little on the heavy side - note to self don't park it on a boggy lawn because the side stand sinks in and you have to try to lift up a beast while you're slipping around! lol

There and back again.
I bought a 2007 vstar 650 classic with 8857 miles on it about a month ago for $2000. It looked very clean and sharp in the Pearl white, so I gave them an offer, and they took it. Shocked me, but no complaints. This is the 2nd vstar 650 I have owned. I had a 2001 custom I bought new and sold in 2008. Kinda regretted it after, but I'm back now. The 650 vstar is probably the best bike I have owned, and I've had alot. My other 650 I had made a few 1000 mile or so road trips to the smokies and back, and it never gave me any fits. I expect the same ...Read morefrom this one. A 650 is plenty big enough to go anywhere you want. Anyone who says otherwise, needs a reality check. These bikes are VERY low maintenance, cheap to insure, and fun/easy to ride. It is not just a learners bike as I've seen said before. Sure, you can learn on it, but that doesn't mean it's only a learner bike. Technically, you can learn on a R1. would you call that a learners bike? The vstar 650 is an all around great bike. There are plenty of accessories. And they pretty much haven't changed the design since 1998, so plenty of new & used parts, and will be for a long time. Also, you can usually find a good used one for dang cheap. Get a 650 vstar, ride it like it was meant to be ridden, and you won't be disappointed.

Yamaha V Star 650 Classic
Bought this bike about 2 months ago. I haven't ridden for over 10 years, and was a little sceptical of the weight. Now close to 2000 km, and its been a dream. Great for a LAMS approved cruiser. Stock, its a quiet bike, plenty of low down toque gets you up and going quickly, though does run of out legs higher up, Will still easily cruise along at 100 and above, with plenty of go in it to overtake. Classic style with enough chrome and looks to turn heads. Recently put after market Vance and Hines Cruzers exhaust to add more depth and volume to th...Read moree sound. Be advised, the Vance and Hines pipes exceed the legal sound limits, but not obnoxiously so. Lets other drivers know your there !

Yamaha V Star 650 classic
I bought mine in early 2015. Its been fantastic. I replaced the pipes with V & H pipes to give it a better note and put a top of the range windshield on it. Its faultless and is the only bike in Australia to have a 5 year factory warranty. The seat is fine on 200 km trips. The bike length of 2.45 meters gives the impression it is a lot larger capacity.

I just added engine bars and highway pegs. Its amazing for long distance trips. By adjusting your feet position it changes your butt position. Long distance riding is awesome now.
I have hit the 2 year mark of ownership. Faultless and stll looks brand new. Quality build. The V Star is a premium build and designed to last.I trust this bike and recommend you seriously consider it

Questions & Answers
Got a V Star 2015 classic, has std exhaust, thinking of VH slip ons. Can you change just the std mufflers, or do you have to replace all the pipe?
4 answers
"Slip ons"
So they slip in to the header pipe. We usually have used sets in parts. 1300115779
With the VH exhaust you only have to change the mufflers so the front header pipes that you already have stay on. I can tell you now that you may not be able to get a VH for your 2015 V Star. Yamaha slightly changed the frame of the V Star in 2006 where the exhaust bolts on at the back. You can buy the VH made BEFORE 2006 but they will NOT fit your 2015 bike so just be careful of that. For some reason it is very hard to buy any VH exhausts for the V Star 650 made AFTER 2005. I could not buy any for my V Star 650 at all. I ended up buying a Delkevic stainless steel exhaust system. They run a full system from the head right through to the mufflers. I payed about 650 dollars Australian for the full system from ebay. It sounds better than any VH system and fits right up onto the motorcycle. It came in a box with all the bolts and brackets and every thing that was needed to fit the system. It takes less than 1 hour to fit it on and being stainless steel it is there for life as it will never rust. With the Delkevic system you can run what mufflers that you want as the mufflers mount onto the headers as seperate items. You can google Delkevic exhaust systems and have a look. They make them for a lot of motorcycles. I have had mine for 9 months now and they are good. Any motorcycle shop could fit them on for you if you do not know how to do it. If this was helpful please give me a like. My Motorcycle is a 2006 XVS 650 Classic Cruiser.
Is there any difference between the classic throttle and clutch cables and those on a custom?
1 answer
There is no difference. Both fit up ok.
Can some tell me how to tell if you have a classic 11 or classic 14 I'm trying to get insurance but I don't understand what it means I have xvs650a classic 2013 mod
1 answer
The Yamaha dealership should know.

The motivation
If you are a freelancer or a small startup, and you have in your portfolio an admin dashboard product, trying to promote it and sell it, can be challenging without a serious budget. The first page in Google for the keyword "admin dashboards" is full of well-positioned companies like ColorLib, WrapBootstrap, and other companies at the same level.
The plan
To get Google's attention, we need to pass this simple checklist:
- A fast, well-structured website
- Specific content
- No bullshit or spam
- Good referrals
The domain name admin-dashboards.com, match 100% the keyword we are targeting. And it was free. This fact forced me to think 'God is a hacker'

The result: this app scores more than 90 on Lighthouse and is a clone of this gatsby starter. There is no login, registration, the entire app is plain HTML, that follows best SEO, and usability practices. You may read here about Gatsby.

github.com/admin-dashboards. Also, the products, with a little bit of traction from the audience, will have a correspondent project on Github, on address

How far have women come to close the gender gap? The introduction provides facts about how much progress women really have made. Were the "olden days" really that good? Is history relevant today? If not, why do we sometimes feel like we are going backwards? And why tell the stories? So young women can learn through listening to the stories that you sometimes have to fight through the bad times to get to the best moments of your life. We want them to realize that, even in the face of gender, racial or cultural discrimination, even when there is no clear path ahead, there is a whole world of possibility out there for them, that they can continue to dream, that they can succeed, and that they have it in them to do it

Beth Webb is a member of California Crime Victims for Alternatives to the Death Penalty and a tireless advocate of abolition. In 2011, her sister, Laura, was killed, and her mother, Hattie, was wounded in the Salon Meritage Shooting in Seal Beach, CA. Beth worked with the other victims' family members to oppose the death penalty in the resulting trial, based on her opposition to the practice and on the fact that it would cause the families to endure a painful and unending litigation process. Beth even spoke to the Orange County District Attorney to let him know her opposition to the death penalty, although the DA rebuffed her while still continuing to tout his "victims' rights" bona fides. In 2017, the defendant was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole because the judge presiding over the case found that the corruption of the OCDA's office and OC Sheriff's Department had been so pervasive that he could not guarantee a Constitutional sentencing hearing. In 2016, Beth was one of the most forceful campaigners for Prop. 62, a statewide ballot initiative that nearly abolished the death penalty in California.

not transmissible, but the weakened constitution or degeneracy which
is generally responsible for the development of the drug addiction is
A few cases of drug addiction are external; that is, the patient may
have a good healthy constitution, no hereditary taint, and still
because during some sickness he was given morphine a number of times
he may have developed an addiction to the drug. But those cases are
rare. And such cases, if they are cured and if the addiction is
completely overcome, may marry.
But in most cases it isn't the drug addiction that causes the
degeneracy; it is the degeneracy or the neuropathic or psychopathic
constitution that causes the drug addiction. And such cases are bad
matrimonial risks.
And it is a very risky thing for a woman to marry an addict with the
idea of reforming him. As I said about the alcoholic: Let him reform
first, let him stay reformed for a few years, and then the rest is not
so great.

My Thrivent journey continued as I was called to the Financial Associate role. Excited about this new opportunity and growing my relationship with Thrivent, I also learned that my great-grandmother was a top producing insurance agent. As my Thrivent story evolves, I am discovering how to help others with their financial concerns. I enjoy meeting people, building lasting relationships, and helping them through the financial ups and downs of life. Looking at each individual's situation and coming up with a solution that fits their specific needs is the foundation of my practice. I can not wait to help others create their own unique Thrivent story! My passions include music and animals. I enjoy riding competitively with my horse Duchess. I also play the violin and am an active member of my church choir.

Michigan Police Officers
So you want to be a police officer in the state of Michigan, but you are not sure where to begin. Well to become a police officer in any state is a very extensive process. If you are going to become a police officer you maybes well understand what you are in for. First and foremost, the good thing in Michigan is that they are always looking for police officers, and if you make it you can expect to be paid well. One of the lowest salaries is $32,000 which is not bad at all.
Now because of the huge responsibility it is to be a police officer, there are certain requirements that a person must meet. For starters, you have to be at least 18 years old, and you have to have a high school diploma. Now after you do that, you will be required to meet a health examination, including hearing and vision. Second, you must meet a mental examination and a physical fitness test.
Now along with these things you must pass a written examination, and in most cases oral boards, and a very extensive background investigation. Now the background will be investigations into you. They will talk to your family, friends, and co-workers. Now if you pass all these tests, examinations and investigations, then the next step is for the applicant to go through a certified police academy. In the police academy the staff is designed to train you on how to be a good police officer.
As a police recruit, you can expect the academy to flow almost like a boot camp. You will be trained on things a police officer needs to know, for example; firearms training, because all police officers have to be able to shoot well. A recruit will be trained on traffic codes and criminal law. In order to be able to charge people criminally you need to know the law.
Now besides these two areas you will also be trained on ethics and behavior as a police officer, which is becoming more and more scrutinized. Now there are also two more areas that you need to realize that they will train you on. One will be high speed pursuit driving. Driving a patrol car is very intense, a lot of times police officers feel that the lights and sirens make them invincible. The truth of the matter is that it does not. That is why pursuit driving training is vital.
Next at the academy, you can also expect them to give you high intense physical training, commonly called PT. Usually your instructors are former military drill instructor types, and they are supposed to get you in great shape, often pushing you harder then you thought you could handle. Remember physical training is important to a police officer survival. It is not uncommon for police officers to have to fight and wrestle people, and do foot chases, so they need to be in good shape.
Now if a police recruit makes it through the intense training of the police academy, then they will have the honor and distinction of being able to graduate the police academy, and be certified in the state of Michigan as a police officer. Now as far as cost is concerned, there are two ways to get through the academy. If a police department hires a recruit before the academy, then the cost of the academy is paid for by the department. However in Michigan about 50% of the recruits pay their way through the academy.
Now if a recruit pays their way through the academy , the average cost is about $5700. Now along with the cost, a recruit can expect that they will be in the academy anywhere from 14-16 weeks, depending on the academy they go through.
Now once a recruit graduates the academy and goes to work as a police officer, he will be partnered with a field training officer, commonly referred to as a FTO. Field training officer is usually certified to be able to train rookies, and his job is to take what he learned in the classroom, and apply it to the street. Now once a recruit gets done his field training, then he is ready to go on his own. Once they get on their own, they usually start out in the patrol division, and earn their way up and prove themselves. Once they prove themselves, they have many different options.
All police departments have a lot of specialized units, including community policing, vice, narcotics, school resource officer, traffic, criminal investigations and even have homicide, and many, many others. If your dream is to be a police officer, now you know the steps and what is required. Many people want to be police officers because of movies and television shows, but people do not realize it is nothing like television. A police officer job is tough but rewarding at the same time, but it is not easy, and not for everybody.
If you want to be a police officer and make a difference in your community and your world, the Michigan police departments can always use good officers.

Instagram Live Video of the Day!
Every once in a while you see a masterpiece... just by accident! I was minding my own business and trying to decide what to wear tonight and my tablet started blaring at me!
It turned out that Sami F, one of the few people that I follow and don't know at all was hosting a live video and Dogtor Barker Apparel was invited! How could I turn this down?
Now the beauty of these live videos is that once they are over, so there is no record of what happens! Unless I happen to be paying attention because in that case, I will write about it... if it's awesome!
Sami had a great video going but she was let down by her friends. One guy kept trying to get is head into the video even though Sami reminded him several times that it wasn't about him. Other friends obviously didn't show up to the video site on time... perhaps another went to make brownies?! wtf?
At any rate, we at Dogtor Barker Apparel loved the video and we hope you will do it again soon!
For anyone else out there wanting Dogtor Barker to memorialize your live Instagram video, follow us on Instagram. We will follow you back and then, who knows, we may be watching you when you least expect it!
Barker out!
Check out some of our blog entries and feel free to check out the merch on the site! I'm sure you will find something you will love! And definitely leave us a comment so we know you stopped by!

An In-Depth Analysis of the Anticancer, Antioxidant, and Prooxidant Effects of Pomegranates
Wolf, Bella
MetadataShow full item record
One such ancient food, and perhaps arguably the most famously revered, is the pomegranate (Punica Granatum). This fruit, while perhaps less common nowadays in the average person's daily diet, was commonplace in ancient times and has appeared in both a medicinal as well as spiritual context countless times. Punica refers to the city of Carthage, which provided Italy with some of the best pomegranates in ancient times, and Granatum means seedy due to the pomegranate's large amount of seeds [1]. While the exact origins of the pomegranate may remain contested, it has been accepted that it was first seen in the Mediterranean and Near Eastern regions, which explains why its popularity and significance in ancient times resides in this area to the exclusion of Western Europe and the Americas [1]. Wolf!3 Further findings show that through trade the pomegranate has reached all corners of the world. One opinion is that it was originally cultivated, purportedly, in 3000 BCE in Iran, followed by 2000 BCE in North Africa, western Turkey, and Greece, 100 BCE in China, 800 CE in Spain, 1400 in Indonesia, and finally early 1700's in the area now known as the United States of America [1].

The Ukrainian Ministry of Infrastructure, the Ministry of Regional Development, Building and Housing, the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade and the Ministry of Finance presented a Draft Complex Action Plan for reforming the infrastructure projects cycle management in Ukraine at the inter-ministerial meeting in Kyiv on January 18. This Plan was prepared with the support of the EU project "Assistance to the Ukrainian authorities for improvement of the infrastructure cycle management," also abbreviated as ICPM.
"The EU and other donors are ready to support the rehabilitation of the Ukrainian transport network. To do this, we need not only proper framework legislation notably in the road and rail sector but also a reform of the system of how transport infrastructure projects in Ukraine are prepared and implemented. We are glad to support the Ministry and the Ukrainian government in promoting this," Ambassador Hugues Mingarelli, the Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine, stated.
The proposed reform will reduce the time and cost for implementation of infrastructure projects, will create their transparent, accountable and effective management in line with European best practice.
"As Ukraine lacks a sound basis for transport projects infrastructure cycle management, it is imperative to generate a proper reform. This will lead to substantial time and cost savings for infrastructure projects and will also create an accountable, transparent and effective system for infrastructure management. In today's inter-ministerial meeting we discussed with the colleagues from the Regional Development Ministry and the Economy Ministry a series of solutions that should ultimately lead to the development of an efficient and sustainable transport system in Ukraine," Volodymyr Omelyan, the Minister of Infrastructure of Ukraine, said.
The Complex Action Plan covers the legislative, administrative, operational, financial, and organizational issues. Namely, it identifies legal gaps to be filled in line with the requirements of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement; promotes infrastructural projects in Ukraine developed in a socially and environmentally responsible manner; initiates training programmes for relevant ministries, agencies, state-owned enterprises and local authorities, etc.
Bernard Semeria, team leader of the EU project "Assistance to the Ukrainian authorities for improvement of the infrastructure cycle management," indicated that the plan includes the development and adoption of legal and regulatory acts necessary to align Ukrainian legislation with the EU standards and practices. The new practical changes will directly impact the work of central and local authorities, state-owned enterprises and ensure the delivery of results and proper maintenance of their work in accordance to EU norms and standards on IPCM procedures.
Recall, for 2019, UAH 55 billion is allocated for road repairs and maintenance in Ukraine, out of which UAH 14.6 billion goes for local roads. Furthermore, on January 18, Kharkiv Observer reported that the European Commission had announced the plan to invest almost €13 billion into Eastern Partnership countries, including Ukraine, transportation system up to 2030. The plan foresees a total of 4,800 km of road and rail, six ports, and 11 logistics centers. By implementing the reform, Ukraine will unlock the ways to more efficient use of these resources, as well as to drawing more investment into the infrastructure projects.
Background information:
The IPCM project is funded by the European Union as a part of its continued support for the implementation of the Association Agreement. The project consults Ukrainian authorities about bringing Ukrainian transport and infrastructure legislation in compliance with the European one, infrastructure projects management, public investment management and alignment of Ukrainian technical standards in the transport sector with the European ones. The project is implemented by Corporate Solutions Consulting Ltd., UK, and SYSTRA SA, France, from September 2017 to July 2020. Its budget is €2.3 mln.
