Geet Siriram Sethi (born 17 April 1961) of India is a professional player of English billiards who dominated the sport throughout much of the 1990s. He is also a notable amateur (ex-pro) snooker player. He is a five-time winner of the professional-level and a three-time winner of the amateur world championships, and holder of two world records, in English billiards. Along with Prakash Padukone, Sethi has co-founded Olympic Gold Quest, a foundation for the promotion of sports in India.

Career
Born in Delhi and grew up in Ahmedabad, Sethi won his first major English billiards event in 1982, the Indian National Billiards Championship (an international event despite its name), defeating Michael Ferreira, and went on to win the NBC again four years in a row, 1985–1988, and made a comeback in both 1997 and 1998 to reclaim the title.

He rose to international prominence by winning the IBSF World Amateur Billiards Championships in 1985, versus Bob Marshall in an eight-hour-long final round. In 1987, he again won the IBSF event, as well as the ACBS Asian Billiards Championship He won another World Amateur Billiards title 2001, despite having previously played as a pro by that date.

Sethi also took the Indian National Snooker Championships four times back to back, in the same 1985–1988 span as his national English billiards streak. In the 1989 event, held at Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, though he did not take the title, he did achieve the world's first amateur maximum break of 147 in official competition. He has never placed in the top snooker world rankings, however. Sethi is the only person in the history of cue-sports to have scored a maximum (147) in competitive snooker and a 1000+ break in competitive billiards.

In the 1992 World Professional Billiards Championship, Sethi constructed a world-record English billiards  of 1276 in 80 minutes under the three-pot rule, also the highest break in five decades, and won first place. He went on to win the title again in 1993, 1995, 1998, and 2006.

In the 2006 event, in Prestatyn, Wales, he defeated David Causier in the quarter final, and defending World Pro Champion Chris Shutt in the semi-final. He won the title round 2073–1057 (average per  34.3 vs. 17.0) in a timed five-hour final against Lee Lagan (who had previously beaten him 6  to 5 at the untimed 2003 IBSF Amateur World Championship). After running two  in the first hour, Sethi led by 150, increased this to 427 with two more centuries by the end of the first of the two , and followed it up with a  of 238 ; meanwhile Langan only managed two centuries in the first session and one in the second..  When the  time ran out, Sethi had just reached a double century again, at 206, and had been poised to continue the break.

He has been described as an "arch-rival" of Mike Russell of England, also an eight-time English billiards World Champion, and each of them had defeated the other for the title, with Russell victorious in 1996, and Sethi the winner in 1998, as of their next encounter at the 2007 event. They both scored two triple centuries apiece in the semi-finals, but Russell knocked Sethi out of the running, 1835–1231 (65.5 vs. 45.6 average); Russell eventually won the title, for his ninth World crown.

Sethi won gold and silver medals in doubles and singles English billiards respectively at the 13th Asian Games (1998, Bangkok, Thailand). He also won silver and bronze medals in doubles and singles English billiards respectively at the 14th Asian Games (2002, Busan, South Korea). At the 15th Asian Games (2006, Doha, Qatar), he took bronze medal in English billiards (men's doubles with Ashok Harishankar Shandilya).

He has announced plans to compete in the Olympic Games for India when cue sports are finally admitted as Olympic sports (long in-progress between the World Confederation of Billiard Sports and the International Olympic Committee).

Sethi's professional management agent, TNQ Sponsorship, commented that he "has been focussing[sic] on the sport with renewed enthusiasm" and "seems to be peaking at the right time".

Vintage Cars vs. Classic Cars
by Your Auto Ally Team | Jul 2, 2019 | Tips, vehicles | 8 comments
Vintage car or classic car, can you tell the difference? They sound as if they could be describing the same vehicle. The differences can be hard to distinguish. Especially since these periods happened back to back. Let's take a look at the eras these cars were created.
Vintage cars are older than classic cars. There is a little discrepancy when the vintage era ends. Everyone agrees that the vintage era began in 1919. Some believe that it ended in 1925; others feel it ended in 1930. The Classic Car Club of America is on the side of it ending in 1925. 1930 is the year that the British claim the vintage car era ended and the classic car era began.
The Vintage Era
Before the vintage era, cars were for the elite. Only those from the more prominent families were available to afford them. This era also changed the look and practicality of vehicles. The vintage era took cars from horseless carriages to something more comfortable. Instead of having opening these cars had closed-bodies. Now the wind and rain wouldn't be able to disturb those traveling safely inside. The engines also made a massive leap in this era.
With all the significant changes in cars during the vintage era, they gained more popularity. With the better engines making them more efficient, more people were taking the plunge to buy. With the increase in car owners, businesses began to take advantage. During this time, drive-ins took off. Whether it was drive-in food or movies, they began to pop up everywhere.
The Classic Era
Just like the vintage era, the classic era has been a little hard to nail down. Between the years of 1925 and 1948 are when the classic cars were created. Others believe that a classic car is a car 25 years or older.
The cars built in the classic era were the start of the sleek designs. Convenience was the problem of the last era. This period was all about impressing with their new body styles. Another interesting fact is that they did not mass produce when the new styles of cars were coming out. Fewer cars on the lot make them in higher demand now. Toward the end of the classic era, they made some cheaper small cars to cater to the needs of those with a tighter income.
Vintage cars or classic cars neither have the safety that is needed today. The vintage era made cars safer by closing them in, but that's not enough. The classic era improved the mechanics of vehicles. Neither era added safety belts or any time of airbag. The bodies of these cars were not made to take a beating. If you are thinking about restoring a car from either period, you will want to pay attention to all the safety features you need to add.
Take a closer look when checking out the next car show. Will you be able to spot the differences?

I am building a 70 Dodge dart swinger with my 10 yr young son the Mopar is an og 6 car getting a 440/727 swap and got the 83/4 rear swap with a front disc brake conversion at this point I'm full filling a life long dream in my opinion 70s and older mid to full size cars were the real deal the 50s cars were built with the strength of a train the 80s ultimately killed off the car as we or I know it being bourn in the early 70 I should've been bourn in the mid 40s I would've loved to be a teen during the 50s I could only imagine how much fun it was back then
Mark Hill on March 18, 2020 at 8:01 pm
I think the older cars are much easier to work on
And safer they r both very nice cars
Lori R Boulais on August 11, 2020 at 3:28 am
My husband and I met in 85. He owned a 1969 Dodge Coronet back then. I hated it. It was so big, heavy and rode like a tank. He eventually got rid of it and we bought a Cutlass Salon. Although I loved the Cutlass more at the time, I am constantly kicking myself in the butt for talking him into getting rid of the Coronet years ago. Boy would I like to have that car now. It's one of those, woulda, coulda, shoulda moments. I feel the same way about a couple of other cars we have had thru the years. Among the Cutlass and the Coronet we had a 1971-2 Pontiac LeMans, a 1974 Mustang, a 1979 Camaro and a 1969 Chevy Nova. Not if I only knew them what I know now.

The Epoch Napf Server I'm playing on has no more Item Respawn after updating to 1.0.5/1.0.5.1 few days ago.
Make sure you have updated any custom files with the latest from 1.0.5.1 otherwise you will get issues like this.
and how do i know what i need to update?
What exactly do you mean? You're not getting any loot in the buildings?
Its not a bug of 1.0.5, you likely have old outdated scripts being loaded via the mission file.
It's not a 1.0.5.x bug, you messed up something on your server.
I've got loot spawning on my server.
Like countless people here have said, the server your playing on has not updated thier mission file correctly and still have 1.0.4.2 files in it. A lot of files have changed between the updates, message the admin of the server and let them know.

Can i make a timer icon that when pressed it can turn off all of my stuff say at 3am (but only when i press it)
OP | Post 2 made on Thursday August 24, 2000 at 20:00
That function is not supported by the software. You can however make a timer with a shut off time of 3am and include a macro with codes to turn off your equipment. When you want to set it, just go to the timer and click edit, then click on the day off the week that 3am would be (tommorrow). This is really not that much trouble to set once you do it a couple of times. If your already using this method you know what I mean. Although it is a shame that your way is not available yet.
Daniel Tonks
Basically, yes such a timer can be created, but no you can't press a button to activate it. Whenever a timer has enough information, it's active. There's no way to enable or disable a timer then via the method Brady describes. Also, in order to edit a timer on the remote it must be located in the Macro side and can be the only function on that button (although the timer itself can point to a macro).
I can hear people thinking of that "is timergroup" setting in ProntoEdit. That's only for the creation of new buttons -- if a group is set to "timergroup", all blank buttons will default to a timer when edited. Otherwise they default to a macro.
OP | Post 4 made on Friday August 25, 2000 at 00:25
Stick it in the sofa. That will deactivate it.
Simon Russell
Norm's was the solution I've arrived at also.
At 3am every morning all my gear is turned off, and the Home Page is returned to. If I don't want this to be the case, then my Pronto tries it's hardest to turn off the insides of my sofa for a few minutes.
That is, until they release an update with some more flexible timer functions...
OP | Post 6 made on Tuesday August 29, 2000 at 18:29
Well, it looks like you guys have answered my question. I'm in search of a countdown timer to turn off my equipment in 30, 60 or 90 minutes. My hope was to execute the function via a button.
Please let me know if anyone has developed a way to do this. I'm sure a software writer could manage this with ease.
OP | Post 7 made on Wednesday August 30, 2000 at 03:01
Unfortunately, there's no way to trigger a timer action yet, so you can't have a "sleep" facility.
I'm experimenting with making the Pronto beep at, say, 2:55am to tell me that it's going to turn everything off in 5 mintutes, so if I want to avoid that I've got to block the IR signal. There are a few niggles with this though:
- if I'm still up and watching tv, I don't always hear the Pronto
- if I'm in bed and all equipment is off I hear the Pronto (small house)
- The macro also jumps back to my home page, as it assumes everything has been placed in it's off status. Therefore, if this is not the case I've to get back to where I was (which involves blocking more IR codes when switching to devices).
Like I say, a timer interrupt/cancel/trigger feature would be of use here, methinks.
Joe: you can use delays to do what you want, BUT:
1) A delay is .1 to 99.9 sec., so a 30 min =15*90sec....
2) You cannot use your Pronto during that time (I think if you use it, it will stop the action)
Anthony -- yup, all correct.
OP | Post 10 made on Thursday August 31, 2000 at 09:11
I've found a way round this, and explained it in more detail in a "getting clever with the timer" post, but the basics are:
Use the timer to trigger a button that does the following at 3am every morning:
- Beep
- Delay 30 secs (or however long)
- run an "everything off" macro
- jump to your home page
at 3am your Pronto will beep and sit there for 30 seconds. In that 30 seconds the right button will change to say "Stop". If you're still watching tv then pressing the right button will prevent everything from being turned off. If not, then everything will go off and your Pronto will be reset for the morning.

I have some macros set up to do exactly what you want, basically a bunch of stacked delays with a system off macro called at the end.. unfortunately it 'locks' the pronto while in use, except you can cancel the operation with the right hard key..
I will post my ccf to the site so you can grab that chunk out of it..

Long time no post
Still using my TSU 1000 and it works just fine.
Having not used PE (if I can still find it on the computer) in many years, is there a way to set up a macro timer on the TSU 1000 itself without the use of PE?

Yes there is. There should hopefully be an TSU1000 manual somewhere on this site. To setup timers, you have to be able to get to the options/setup menu which may have been hidden by a flag specified in your current CCF.

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the sequel to June's Snow White, which starred Stewart Hemsworth and Charlize Theron, is being reconceived as a spinoff movie. It's unclear whether director Rupert Sanders will return, though one source with ties to the production says he will. However, screenwriter David Koepp, who had been hired to pen the continuation of the original film, is being settled out of his rich contract, according to sources, as the project is being transformed into something other than the movie that Koepp had been hired to write.
The move comes in the wake of Stewart, 22, and the married Sanders, 41, apologizing publicly for a romantic affair after compromising photos of the duo were published in July.
While it might have been awkward for Stewart and Sanders to reunite for a sequel, it is not clear why the decision to move forward without Stewart was made. It is highly unusual for Hollywood studios to drop stars of franchises between the first and second installments. The original plan, according to sources, was to make two films featuring the Snow White character and a third film spinning off the Huntsman, similar to how Fox's X-Men series has spun off Wolverine.

I'm aiming to show how avoid spelling errors by showing ways to implement automated spell-checking.
Nearly all Django applications have two main textual bodies that users come in touch with: First, any text in the application and its translation, second the documentation. Since both are usually written by humans, they will contain spelling errors. This is considered harmful and can from time to time hinder the user trying to understand what to do. Therefore, an automated spell-checking tool should be a part of any CI-cyle.
For spell-checking documentation, I will give a short demonstration on how to use the "sphinxcontrib-spelling"-tool written by Doug Hellmann, the problems we had and how we overcame them. For spell-checking text in the application and its translations that are usually found in .po-files, I have implemented a small tool called "potypo" (name and development in progress). I will present this tool and show challenges and problems on the way to implementing automated spell checking for .po-files.

A peek into professors' pleasure-reading packs
By Mark Clayton Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
Everybody's got a summer reading list. National Public Radio's "Talk of the Nation" has one. So does the Westlake Middle School in Thornwood, N.Y. Freshmen entering many American colleges do, too.
So, while Oprah's book club is defunct, advice abounds to help pick that perfect tome for beach, campground, or the big wicker porch chair.
One notable group of readers, however, has not offered up to the public such a list: professors. After sampling the pleasure reading that profs are pursuing this summer, maybe you'll think they should.
Professors have a reputation for slicing through stacks of books faster than a Jedi light saber through clone warriors. They read all year to prepare for classes and write footnote-laden articles and books of their own. They soldier on through Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason," piles of undergraduate essays, and the Journal of Corrosion Science and Engineering.
So, when finally released from such duties, watch out: The academics are on their summer prowl. A highly unscientific sample of professors' personal reading this season shows a crazy quilt of authors and subjects, with selections ranging from familiar classics to the expectedly recondite, from detective novels to political biography.
"I always read my cookbooks, because I finally have the time to sit down and really get into them," says Carolyn Marvin, a professor of communications at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. "But the other thing that makes summer so great is reading big long narratives."
Besides spending more quality time with Betty Crocker, Dr. Marvin is also plowing through Philip Dray's "At the Hands of Persons Unknown," a history of lynching in the Southern United States. True, it fits with a course she will teach this fall on "cultural taboos." Yet she's reading it mostly out of personal interest, she says, since she hails from Louisiana and wants to learn more about a subject that was out of bounds for so long.
"Lynching is becoming the focus of the history of the South," she says. "It's this mythical, unexplored topic. I grew up in a period when civil rights was just beginning. One of the things you grow up wondering is, Why did people [lynchers] have these crazy ideas in the first place?"
Marvin is also giving fresh attention to William Faulkner's "Intruder in the Dust." And if she has time, she hopes to get to "Eisenhower at War," 800-plus pages by the former president's grandson, David Eisenhower.
Low literature on a flight from Paris
For one glorious week in a rented cottage on Cape Cod, between games of Trivial Pursuit with family, Stephen Holt will gobble his literary goodies. A professor of physics at Olin College of Engineering in Needham, Mass., his stack includes books by "Get Shorty" crime novelist Elmore Leonard.
It's not high literature, and that doesn't matter a whit.
"What I love about it is that he's a master of urban dialogue, but without a lot of the graphic, gratuitous sex and violence," Dr. Holt says. "I just flew back from Paris – basically I can get through one of Leonard's books per flight."
Holt, a former director of space sciences at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., took a leap of faith last fall by accepting an untenured teaching post at Olin – the first new independent engineering college to be built in decades. He and other faculty have been crafting what they hope will be a revolutionary undergraduate engineering curriculum.
So in addition to Leonard mysteries, he wants during his week off to delve into "Fermat's Enigma: The Epic Quest to Solve the World's Greatest Mathematical Problem" by Simon Singh.
As a backup, Holt also has on his list Tom Robbins's "Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates," and the Pulitzer Prize-winning sociological treatise "Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies," by UCLA physiology professor Jared Diamond.
In the West ...
Adrienne Peek is leaving her job as a remedial-writing instructor to become an English teacher at a community college in Modesto, Calif.
But in addition to packing, she's weaving a few books into the operation to keep things fun. There's "The Age of Innocence" by Edith Wharton, as well as Pulitzer Prize-winner "Empire Falls," by Richard Russo. And a couple of Steinbeck classics she admits to never having read: "The Grapes of Wrath" and "East of Eden."
"I buy books, many books, all the time during the year at a used book store for some day when I have time," Ms. Peek says. "Usually that means waiting for summer. There's a lot of delight in not having to think, 'OK, what am I going to do for class with this?' "
Ted Jelen is chairman of the political science department at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas and editor of the Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion. For fun this summer, he's been devouring Robert Caro's third volume of his biography of President Lyndon Johnson: "Master of the Senate." Beyond that 1,152-page doorstop is Jay Winik's "April 1865: The Month That Saved America," about the fragile days after the Civil War.
But he's also had an unfortunate and unexpected blowout. After 100 pages, he put down "Theodore Rex," a biography of Teddy Roosevelt by Edmund Morris. "Just not my cup of tea, I guess" he opines. "Reads like a photo album."
A sci-fi Defense Department
Engineer Robin Murphy at the University of South Florida designs rescue robots, some of which helped search for survivors in the World Trade Center rubble. She's reading the "Fire Officer's Handbook of Tactics" by John Norman. She admits it relates to her work, but says she can't help it.
"I won't be doing a vacation this year – too much work needs to be done in the aftermath of 9/11," she writes in an e-mail.
Ordinarily, her summers are all about catching up on the slew of science-fiction books about robots. This summer, though, she's busy working with the US Department of Defense.
She's squirreling away some time for the likes of "Diplomatic Immunity," Lois McMaster Bujold's latest installment in her sci-fi series about the Vorkosigan family.
"The interactions that the Barrayaran military has with the rest of the galaxy pretty much parallel my experiences with the Department of Defense," she writes. "I've been out in the field with the Marines and [am] now working on a study for the Air Force. It's great that someone understands how differently scientists act and think from highly trained military professionals!"

Penguin Books' First to Read program will give readers sneak peeks
Be honest: How many books did you actually read this summer?
Is assigned summer reading a bad idea?


Note that there are two bolts with wing-nuts for attaching the camera mount, one of which is slotted to provide angle adjustment. The bracket and bolts are small, and are a permanent part of the glider. They are on the outer side of the tips when the glider is in the bag, so there is no wear point with respect to the rest of the glider.
My first attempt at a video cam was with a Mini-DV camcorder, which weighted a couple of pounds. Here is the bracket I made to hold the camera and attach to the wing-tip mounts. There is a single bolt into the base of the camera, which allows rotation in the horizontal plane. The slotted hole in the tip mount allows up/down angle adjustment, so it can be easily aimed when attached. Because this was an expensive piece of gear on a hang glider wing-tip, I added a protective bracket to the bottom of the mount - it will hit before the camera does.
You may have noticed I said it weighed a couple of pounds. That much weight was too far out (16 feet?) to leave unbalanced, so I made a set of balance weights to go on the opposite tip (an idential tip-mount had been installed there too).
Now, this meant a lot of weight at the wing-tips, and it did slow down the roll response, but not too bad. What I did not expect (and did not realize for a couple of flights), was how far behind the hang point the camera and weights were! Yep, some significant pitch-up moment being produced there. I did not notice it in active air (when I usually fly pulled in a little bit anyway), but was surprised to notice the glider on the verge of stall when flown hands off in calm air.
After those efforts a few years ago the whole set-up has mostly been put away in a box.
I had been looking into the "Helmet Cams" being sold, but most were low resolution, and I thought maybe something better would eventually turn up. I was right, and this spring (2009) I discovered the Contour HD High Definition Helmet Cam. I had to wait over a month to get it, but this 5-oz camera (10 oz including the aluminum mounting bracket) was the answer I had been seeking. I simply used my old video camera mount bracket, and stuck on one of the several camera mount options for this camera (peel and stick adhesive). The mount itself has a sort of velcro attachment, so the mount can be separated and rotated to a new position.
Also, the lens of the camera can be rotated through 180 degrees, so that it can be mounted in almost any position. And it's light weight requires no counter-balance weights, so it is very quick to attach.

Early voting begins in the second round in Georgia. The balance of power in the Senate is at stake.
No Comments on Early voting begins in the second round in Georgia. The balance of power in the Senate is at stake.
With high stakes for both sides, early voting began Monday in the second round of the Senate in Georgia. The two contests will determine whether Republicans can maintain their majority in the chamber.
The state's two Republican senators, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, were forced to rush against Democratic challengers. Mr. Perdue faces off against Jon Ossoff, the CEO of a media production company; Ms. Loeffler is challenged by Rev. Dr. Raphael G. Warnock, the senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church, a prominent chair in Atlanta that once belonged to Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Since polling day, the second round, scheduled for January 5, has been impossible to escape Georgian voters. The candidates' advertisements covered local radio and television stations, and campaign coverage dominated the local media. In and around Atlanta, road signs are calling on locals to come out and vote – once again.
"I feel like all eyes are on Georgia right now," said Joanne Williams.
"It can go in any direction," said Ms. Williams, 27, "but I hope people come forward and practice their right to vote."
The vote began as Georgia had been in the national political spotlight for weeks. Because of their disproportionate role in determining the partisan balance of the Senate, the second round attracted substantial external attention and investment.
State Democrats were recently reinvigorated, with President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. becoming the party's first presidential candidate to win Georgia since 1992. Mr. Biden will travel to the state on Tuesday to campaign for Mr. Warnock and M. Ossoff.
Georgia was also a major milestone in President Trump's fight to challenge the presidential election result, sparking a conflict among Republicans across the state as Mr. Trump raised baseless allegations of voter fraud and attacked the state governor, Brian Kemp, a Republican.
Mr. Trump continued his criticism over the weekend. "What a stupid Governor @BrianKempGA of Georgia is," the president said in a Twitter message on Sunday. He repeated his argument that Mr. Kemp should have called a special session of the state legislature to try to overturn the election in his favor. And he argued that the situation could mean a "bad day for two BIG Senators on January 5th".
Raymond Floyd, 37, said he felt the charged energy and excitement of the moment as he queued outside the High Museum of Art in Midtown Atlanta, a few miles from the State Capitol building . Mr Floyd, who planned to vote for Mr Ossoff and Mr Warnock, said: "I like democracy at work."
But he added, "Once this election is over, I'm ready for a sense of normalcy and a sense of respect."

Gandhi Market road buckles to traffic after downpour
TIRUCHI, December 02, 2019 09:36 IST
Thanjavur Road connecting Gandhi Market and Kattur in Tiruchi goes from bad to worse during the rainy season.
Potholes dotting the strecth poses risk to road users
The continuous downpour has caused tell-tale damage to Thanjavur Road in Gandhi Market area.
The stretch has become uneven and water-logged due to the wear and tear caused by hundreds of city buses and load lorries. The potholes on the road cause risk to the lives of motorists.
"The road turns bad every time it rains. Either the quality of tar is poor, or the vehicle density is too high for the road to bear," said K. Muthulakshman, a resident of Kattur.
Traffic snarls are the order of the day on the stretch from Palpannai to Gandhi Market. Prolonged traffic snarls give a torrid time to motorists on the road, and the rains make matters worse. As the goods vehicles operating to and from the market seem to have a free run, they could be seen plying on the road even during peak hours.
An equal number of other goods carriers, motorised fish carts and hand carts operate around the market causing frequent traffic gridlocks.
Large potholes, mounds of slush on either side of the road along the road pose a severe risk to pedestrians and two-wheelers. "It is difficult to walk outside and even purchase basic grocery. Heavy vehicles ply throughout the day and with the slush, we risk our lives just by stepping out," S. Suresh, a security guard at a roadside shop said.
N. Ramakrishnan, a civic activist, said health and sanitation issues also needed to be addressed along the stretch. "We step into large pools of stagnated water, sometimes filled with garbage exposing ourselves to potential health risks and infections. Women, especially pregnant women, and senior citizens living in the area are afraid to step out."
The city police and the district administration need to organise meetings and address the issues, said Mr. Ramakrishnan.
"An open meeting could be organised where sanitation and traffic issues can be addressed," he added.
Mr. Ramakrishnan said that the most viable situation would be to follow a one-way rule along the stretch. "Traffic flow from the Gandhi Market junction onwards is slow. Buses and heavy vehicles coming from Ariyamangalam towards the Market can take the longer route through TVS Tollgate or the Odathurai Bridge. One-way system must be implemented effectively in Tiruchi city."

The race for the 19th Congressional District heats up as both parties expect to have primaries on June 28 to choose who will be on the ballot for our two parties in November. New York's presidential primaries are on April 19. The primaries for local offices are September 13.
All the congressional candidates are gearing up for the primaries by flooding the mails and by wooing the party leadership at the town and county level. There are 11 counties and countless towns, more than enough to keep the campaign offices busy.
The Republican candidates seem to come down to Andrew Heaney of Millbrook and John Faso of Kinderhhook although Bob Bishop, a farmer from Delaware County may also be on the ballot. Heaney is a political newcomer while Faso is a seasoned politician, having been in the State Assembly where he was the minority leader. He also ran for governor against Spitzer and for comptroller against Helvisi. The leading candidates are already trading negative ads. Both candidates are running against President Obama (who is not running) and both say they will create jobs and bring prosperity to the 19th Congressional District.
The Democrats will choose between Will Yandik of Livingston in Columbia County and Zeypher Teachout, the Fordham law professor who has established a residence in the town of Dover. They both have elaborate web sites.
We will be interviewing the candidates. The results will be found in these pages shortly after we can track them down.

Rosthalsad trögfågel (Malacoptila rufa) är en fågel i familjen trögfåglar inom ordningen hackspettartade fåglar.

Utseende och läte
Rosthalsad trögfågel är en distinkt medlem av familjen. Karakteristiskt är orangerött på kinder och ansikte som kontrasterar med streckat grått huvud. Sången består av en mycket tunn fallande drill som lätt undgår upptäckt.

Utbredning och systematik
Rosthalsad trögfågel delas in i två underarter med följande utbredning:
 Malacoptila rufa rufa – förekommer i nordöstra Peru, östra Bolivia och västra Brasilien (söder om Amazonfloden österut till Rio Madieras västra flodbank)
 Malacoptila rufa brunnescens – östra Amazonområdet i Brasilien, söder om Amazonfloden och öster om Rio Madeira

Familjen trögfåglar placeras ofta tillsammans med jakamarerna (Galbulidae) i den egna ordningen Galbuliformes. Studier visar dock att de är relativt nära släkt med de hackspettartade fåglarna och inkluderas allt oftare i denna ordning.

Levnadssätt
Rosthalsad trögfågel hittas i fuktiga och säsongsmässigt översvämmade skogar. Där ses den i skogens nedre skikt, ibland som en del av kringvandrande artblandade flockar och närvarande vid svärmar av vandringsmyror för att fånga föda som myrorna skrämmer upp i sin framfart. Oftast sitter den helt still under långa perioder.

Status och hot
Arten har ett stort utbredningsområde, men tros minska i antal, dock inte tillräckligt kraftigt för att den ska betraktas som hotad. Internationella naturvårdsunionen IUCN listar arten som livskraftig (LC).

When this happens with my Dell, I attribute it to the system being a bit hot to start up again; the additional time lets the system cool down. I seldom power down/hibernate, however, so this hasn't been a bother and I haven't had cause to investigate it much.
Have you checked the BIOS for any settings that may control this behavior? Also consider updating the BIOS, if you are compelled to do so to attempt to manipulate this issue. Perhaps, release notes for any newer BIOS revisions are available, and they may indicate some kind of fix or similar attention to this type of behavior.

Thanks for the reply. The flying saucer is already in the works and i will eventually get a bigger motor. I'm hoping a mercury super 10 will get it to plane if I can ever find one.
I once used a 4HP 4-stroke to limp home after my 20HP died. I got to 12km/h but think that there may be a little bit more possible with a better prop. for planing I think you need at least 10 to 15HP.
My brother and sister used to waterski behind a 16 ft. alumacraft and an old 10 horse Johnson.try that with a new one.

Top 5 Game Drives in Kenya | Tour Game Drive Parks in Kenya
Here are 5 top game drives in Kenya safari holidays
1. Masai Mara Game Reserve game Drives In Kenya:
This is the premier national park in Kenya and is home to over 3 million animals that can be seen on the plains. Game viewing in Masai mara is a breeze as there are no trees and the plains provide wide open spaces with little tree cover.
Consequently, the open plains and the high abundance of wildlife in the Masai mara make this park one of the greatest places in Kenya for masai mara game drives.
Mara also gets its name from the annual great wildebeests migration of over 1.5million wildebeests across over 3,000km of plains in search of grass. This migration takes place every year around July to October and is one of the biggest events in the Kenyan tourism calendar.
Moreover, will be able to watch thousands upon thousands of the animals crossing Mara River in some of the most dramatic moments. Similarly, mara also has some of the best lodges and tented camps to stay with a range from the top end lodges to Uber luxury camps as well as budget camps.
Maasai mara game drives are undoubtedly the best game viewing experiences in an African safari in Kenya. Given its high animals abundance, means that you can see all the big five animals in a matter of a few hours upon arrival.
2. Amboseli National Park Game Drives
Interestingly, Amboseli park is located some 232km south west of Nairobi city along the border with Tanzania and on the shadow of the highest mountain in Africa-Mt Kilimanjaro. The Amboseli national park is a dry and dusty park which is almost semi arid with the only relief coming from the all year round swamps and ponds.
These fresh water swamps get their water from the melted ice caps of Kilimanjaro that flow underground through millions of lava tubes to emerge inside the park as some of the most clean, clear and cool waters.
Naturally, these waters and swamps form the lifeline for most of the animals that are found inside Amboseli national park. The wildlife will usually migrate into the park from the neighboring Tarangire national park in Tanzania in January to March when its dry and the only water source are the swamps of Amboseli national park.
This park's game drives are usually a short affair as the park is only 392 sq km and the wildlife is mostly around the swamp areas and the forest to the south east of the park. Wildlife to see here include lions, amboseli elephants, cheetahs, giraffe, leopards, gazelles and many others.
3. Samburu National reserve game drives
Grudgingly, Samburu game reserve is located some 318km north of Nairobi. As such the park is located in the arid north of the country and its only relief if the ever green riverine forest of the Ewaso Ngiro River that snakes its way through the park south east wards.
It is known for its big five wildlife and easy game drives. Due to the dry nature of the Samburu ecosystem, the animals tend to come to the only river to drink water and this is where most game drives or game viewing experiences take place.
Most tour vans are packed just nest to the river where they will wait for the animals to come for their daily fill and they get to see them drinking water. All the big five are found here including some the unique animals like reticulated giraffe, blue necked Somali ostrich, Grevy zebra, Beisa oryx, Gerenuk-giraffe antelope among others.
4. Nakuru National Park Game Drives
Conveniently, Nakuru national park is close to Nairobi at only 160km North West of the capital. The park is located on the floor of the Great Rift Valley and is one of the 9 lakes of the rift system. Lake Nakuru is known for its large flocks of flamingos which may number over 2million individuals.
Flamingos have however recently migrated to Lake Bogoria due to scarcity of food in Lake Nakuru and water pollution. Lake Nakuru national park is also an important bird area. Additionally, it is a successful rhino and Rothschild giraffe sanctuary.
Game drives in Lake Nakuru are simple and take about 4 hours as the park s is only 177 sq km. Some of the animals to be found here include lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, rhinos, buffalos, gazelles, impalas, hyenas and many more. There are no elephants in Lake Nakuru national park.
5. Nairobi National Park Game Drives
Accessibility is this parks greatest asset as it is only 7km from the central business district if Nairobi city. Nairobi national park is only 15minutes away even in the heaviest of traffic. The park is a 117sqkm area which is fenced on the side facing the city.
This park is famous for its easy sighting of the lion prides and the black and white rhino populations inside the park. Some of the animals in Nairobi national park include the rhinos, lions, buffalos, giraffes, gazelles, hyenas, leopards, errands, wildebeests, zebras, hartebeests, jackals, serval cats, baboons among many others.
A full game drive in Nairobi national park lasts for 4 hours since it's a small park. Following this, the best time to do a game drive in Nairobi national park is early in the morning with game drives starting at 6:00am in the morning.
Most nairobi stopover tours will almost always include a 4 hour game drive inside Nairobi national park as well as other places like the Daphne Sheldrick elephant orphanage and giraffe centre.

Chinese to start settling trade in Yuan
By Edward Harrison	 On Apr 9, 2009
This comes from Marc Chandler of Brown Brothers Harriman:
China appears to be an offensive of sorts. The governor of the PBOC proposed evolving the SDR as an alternative reserve asset. China has announced CNY60 bln of swap lines with a handful or so of countries. Today China indicated that it will begin experimenting with using the yuan to settle trade. As is its habit, it will begin in a very limited way for Shanghai, and 4 cities in the Guangdong province. China did not appear to indicate which foreign trade partners the yuan settlement apply to, but Hong Kong (still considered foreign trade) and the countries that now have yuan swap lines would be the likely candidates, it seems.
The invoicing function is not often considered when many economists and analysts talk about currencies. However, it is an important function and underscores the role of the US dollar. Consider that nearly all US exports and imports are invoiced in dollars. Rounding the actual figures, only about half of the euro-zone's exports and imports are invoiced in euros and only about a quarter of Japan's exports and imports are invoiced in yen.
Even when the US is not a partner in the trade, the US dollar is often used as an invoicing currency. China wants the yuan to be used more and Russia wants the ruble to be used more. Wanting and having are two different things. China's swap lines may help make the yuan, which is not convertible, more accessible, but the CNY60 bln, roughly equivalent to $95 bln is a drop in the bucket, paling in comparison to Chinese exports–it is about 6 weeks worth of Chinese exports and the depressed pace seen in Feb (exports $64.90 bln in Feb but $90.4 bln in Jan).
Although there seems to be some penchant in the media and among some analysts to play up the China challenge to the dollar, the greenback's role seems quite secure still. Too many seem to be too willing to take China's own spin at face value. It has allowed China to succeed in, for all practical purposes, to re-peg its currency to the dollar. It has allowed China to maintain its reliance on exports–domestic consumption accounts for a smaller share of GDP than in 2005, when the yuan's formal peg to dollar was dropped. Also, little noticed was the news last week that in Q4 08, central banks reduced their dollar holdings in reserves by $110 bln. While central banks were selling these dollars, the greenback appreciated against most major and emerging market currencies, except the Swiss franc and Japanese yen.
China's promotion the greater use of the yuan is a nice news item, but in terms of its own trade and global developments, it is rather small potatoes.
While this move is insignificant in terms of the amount involved, it is yet another indication that the Chinese are serious about moving away from the U.S. dollar.
