Celebrating women: NAWR's 40 most intriguing women!
The National Association Women on the Rise is extremely honored to salute the many sheroes in the last 100 years who've risked their lives to fight for gender equality. Unfortunately, we must continue to fight as many women continue to suffer widespread discrimination and lack political and economic clout.
Today is special for ALL women! International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future regardless of national, ethnic, or social divisions. According to Wikipedia, "this day commemorates the murder of 129 women who were set on fire inside a textile factory in New York in 1908. The discrimination against women brought over one million women and men from the socialist movement onto the streets to march and protest in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland on what was originally called International Working Women's Day on March 19, 1911.
As we celebrate the history of women yesterday, today and in the future; NAWR is proud to also celebrate, salute and share the stories of 40 amazing women in our network. The stories of women's achievements are integral to the framework of our history.
To say thank you for being strong leaders, mentors, business women, caretakers, mother, wives, friends and most importantly, spiritually grounded; we are proud to announce "NAWR's 40 Most Intriguing Women." Your dedication and contribution to your local communities will be read and admired by thousands through our various social media platforms! Nominate yourself today to be included. Hurry, deadline is March 15, 2011.

How can I recognize a religious cult?
Concerning cults, Mr. Graham has said: "Cults can take many forms. Some cults are openly and clearly influenced by non-Christian religions (such as some that originate in the Far East). Others, however, claim to be Christian and may actually incorporate some of the teachings of Christianity, while they deny certain truths in the Bible. Cults substitute their own ideas for the truth which God has given us.
"Although cults differ, they share several characteristics. For example, cults often do not accept the Bible alone as God's Word, and may even say that other books (usually written by the group's founder) are also God's Word and of more value. Cults also commonly claim that they alone correctly interpret the truth and that Christian denominations and churches are wrong in their teaching.
Some cults have a strong leader and demand that members give their allegiance to him (even to the point of rejecting family members). If you have doubts about a group, ask several clergymen about it, or see if your local Christian bookstore has a volume that describes cults.


The increase in the number and complexity of investor-State treaty arbitrations in the last decade has attracted considerable attention from practitioners and academics of international investment protection law. Rules aimed at regulating the protection of foreign investment have been expressed in a decentralised manner, making a clear and comprehensive overview of the topic important.
This volume focuses on the relevant documents and aims to provide an exhaustive treatment of relevant procedural and substantive issues. It includes documents explaining the historical development of investment law, substantive investment rules (multilateral and bilateral treaties and model documents, and general rules on the law of treaties and responsibility) and procedural investment rules (relating to the arbitral process in different fora, immunity, recognition and enforcement).
The new edition of this highly regarded book is aimed at teachers, students and practitioners in the area. It can be used both as a practitioners' handbook and as a classroom companion for courses on international dispute settlement and investment protection law.

Nothing Whiffy About Rexona And Men's Health Man Partnership
By Jane Morey
Deodorant brand Rexona has announced it will partner with Australian Men's Health for the first time, in delivering the 2016 Men's Health Man initiative.
Now in its seventh year, the Men's Health Man campaign strives to unveil all-rounded Australian men who endeavor to be the best they can be in all aspects of life – work, love, mates, wellbeing, fitness and health. The Men's Health Man is a model male, not a male model.
Jon McCarthy, marketing director deodorants and male grooming Unilever Australia and New Zealand said, "Any man committed to health and fitness would love to appear on the cover of Australian Men's Health. Men's Heath Man offers that unique opportunity, and Rexona is thrilled to be part of the campaign.
"Men's Health Man is more than just a national search. It inspires everyday men to pursue a healthy and active lifestyle, and Rexona is now part of that journey. The integrated sponsor campaign across print, online, social media and at a retail level, will ensure more men than ever before will hear about this important health and fitness initiative."
Jackie Frank, publisher of the lifestyle titles, Pacific Magazines said, "Men's Health Man unearths amazing stories of grit and determination, and shines the light on our country's most accomplished and physically fit men. It continues to thrive alongside the celebrity category that this year saw Larry Emdur's inspirational body transformation captivate the attention of Australians.
"For the 2016 campaign, we are incredibly excited to be building on the success of Men's Health Man with our new partner Rexona, to discover even more Aussie talent and showcase some celebrity favourites as you've never seen them before."
This year's overall winner's prize package includes a $10,000 cash prize, national acclaim as the 2016 Australian Men's Health Man and the money-can't-buy opportunity to feature on the cover of the April 2016 issue of Men's Health.
The 2016 Men's Health Man supporting partners include Seiko and Schick.
"Men's Health Man celebrates Australian men who exemplify all the things our magazine stands for," said Men's Health editor, Luke Benedictus. "Yes, that includes health and fitness. But it's also about being a well-rounded man who's determined to squeeze the most out of life."
"We're thrilled to be partnering with Rexona as we feel this brand shares a common vision with Men's Health in helping men achieve the best versions of themselves."
Men's Health Man entries are open from Monday 12 October until Sunday 6 December, 2015. To enter, readers are encouraged to complete the entry form published in Men's Health's November issue. Further information is available at menshealthman.com.au.
Once entries have been judged, six hopefuls will be flown to Sydney for a shoot with a renowned international photographer. The six finalists will be announced with the 'voting' element to the competition to kick off on 1 March, 2016.
Returning for a third year, and off the back of Larry Emdur's very popular win, Men's Health will also recognise a selection of celebrities from an array of backgrounds and professional disciplines, who exemplify the brand values and ethos of Australian Men's Health magazine. The celebrities, who will pose shirtless for Men's Health, will call on their loyal fan base to register to vote for them and be crowned the prestigious Men's Health CELEBRITY Man of 2016.

The University of Mississippi released an update on the NCAA investigation into the football program on Wednesday, and there wasn't much to be optimistic about for Rebels fans.
"Yeah, it's not a good day," radio host Bo Bounds told Tide 102.9.
The morning show host on 105.9 the Zone in Jackson, Mississippi, joined The Game right after the self-imposed bowl band was announced to help us make sense of it all and discuss what it means to the Ole Miss program moving forward.
With the amended Notice of Allegations, the school now faces double-digit Level 1 violations, which is the NCAA's most severe. Ole Miss already offered up self-imposed penalties for charges that also include lack of institutional control, but that doesn't mean the case is over.
"Just because you offer up X, Y, and Z doesn't mean the Committee on Infractions will be lenient when they hand down the sanctions," Bounds said. "Who knows how that committee will digest and come up with sanctions."
"Three years, 11 schollies, and a bowl ban is what they have when they walk in the door to meet with the Committee on Infractions."
This investigation, which began in 2012 with a women's basketball violation, has already hurt Hugh Freeze's football program. After winning 27 games between 2013-15, the Rebels finished last in the SEC West last year with a 5-7 record.
"I think the momentum deal, that's over. The top 5 and top 10 recruiting classes, that ship has sailed. I really think you have to find out who you are and what you are. At the end of the day, Ole Miss is much more of a No. 20 recruiter than a No. 3 recruiter."
You can hear the entire conversation between Bounds and host Ryan Fowler in the video above.

Germany Passes Cyberecurity Law
KEYWORDS cyber legislation / cyber security / infrastructure security / legislation / transportation security / utilities
Germany has passed legislation ordering that more than 2,000 essential service providers implement new minimum information security standards or face penalties if they fail to do so within two years.
The law will affect institutions listed as "critical infrastructure," such as transportation, health, water utilities, telecommunications providers, as well as finance and insurance firms. It gives companies two years to introduce cyber security measures or face fines of up to $111,000, reported Reuters.
"The IT security law obliges firms and federal agencies to certify for minimum cyber-security standards and obtain Federal Office of Information Security (BSI) clearance. The companies must also notify the Office of suspected cyber-attacks on their systems," Reuters said. "The new set of rules also obliges telecommunications providers to warn customers when their connection was abused, for example in a botnet attack, and store the traffic data for up to six months for investigative purposes."
BSI will also be expanded to the international center for IT security, and its main task will be to evaluate the reports of possible cyber-violations in critical infrastructure.
Critics of the law say that that the government first implement their own IT security before forcing companies to do it. They also argue that the new IT security law will drain German economy and will offer little in return. In addition, the companies also complain that the government has not formulated a clear requirement of how severe the cyber-intrusion must be to fall under the reporting requirement, Reuters said. The companies also fear that information about hacker attacks might become public and will result in a negative impact on customers and shareholders.

Northrop Grumman Snags $45 Million Navy Contract
October 19, 2010	Contract Awards, News
Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) has received a $45 million contract from the U.S. Navy for Phase 3 of low-rate initial production of the AN/AES-1 Airborne Laser Mine Detection System (ALMDS).
The contract includes the production of four pods, spares, product development and support at a lower cost-per-pod than in previous lots, the company announced.
"What's critical to the warfighter is the performance of the system, " said Northrop Grumman's Dan Chang, vice president of Maritime and Tactical Systems. "We are confident that DT-IIE results will prove the unique threat detection value and performance of our ALMDS. What's critical to the Defense Department is getting great value for their investments. Because of the hard work of our ALMDS contractor team, we were able to reduce the per-pod price by several percent, enabling the Navy to procure one additional pod system over and above the Phase 2 lot buy."

Королевская аудиенсия Мехико () — высший суд апелляционной инстанции в Королевстве Мексика, входящем в состав вице-королевства Новая Испания.

После того, как Эрнан Кортес уничтожил Теночтитлан, он решил разместить правительственные структуры в Койоакане, что к югу от озера Тешкоко. Для управления растущим населением королевским указом от 13 декабря 1527 года там была создана Королевская аудиенсия, председателем которой стал Нуньо Бельтран де Гусман, противостоявший епископу Хуану де Сумаррага. В 1532 году было создано вице-королевство Новая Испания, однако первый вице-король — Антонио де Мендоса — прибыл в Мексику лишь в 1535 году. В соответствии с новой структурой управления, вице-король стал президентом Аудиенсии и взял на себя функции исполнительной власти, оставив за Аудиенсией законодательную и судебную. По мере роста территории и населения Новой Испании, для лучшего управления в 1548 году была создана ещё одна Аудиенсия, которая с 1560 года стала постоянно находиться в Гвадалахаре.

В связи с тем, что в случае назначения нового вице-короля ему требовалось много времени для того, чтобы прибыть в Новый Свет, 30 января 1600 года король Филипп III издал декрет, в соответствии с которым в случае, когда пост вице-короля Новой Испании являлся вакантным, его обязанности исполняла Королевская аудиенсия Мехико.

Q: ChartFX export chart cuts the borders I have a problem with exporting a chart. I use the ChartFX chart with
chart.ExportImageSize = new Size(600, 450);

and if the size of the image is larger than this (1127, 537), it cuts the right and the bottom border in the exported image.
For exporting, I use simple
chart.Export(FileFormat.Bitmap);

No custom controls are used in exporting the chart, and the chart looks normal in the application (borders all around, and I use simple black border).

A: Few interesting things I realized trying to solve this.
First I have no border
chart.Border = new SimpleBorder(SimpleBorderType.None, cOffice2007BackColor);

Than, I add the new border object just to export the chart with the border.
chart.Border = new SimpleBorder(SimpleBorderType.Color, Color.Black);
chart.Export(FileFormat.Bitmap);

Than I revert the border. And, it exports the chart with the new border, but it doesn't resize the border. If it's larger than ExportImageSize, I see only left and top border, and if it's smaller, I get a part of the chart that goes outside the borders.
So, I set the the border to begin with, and only change the color for the exporting.
One more realization, explicitly setting the ExportImageSize can lead to some interesting side-effects. Even dough your plot looks really good, it sometimes cuts the legend, if it is to large

Two immigrants in search of the American dream
Jennifer Cuevas
To mark the start of National Hispanic Heritage Month, the film, "El Norte," was shown nationwide at select theaters on Sept. 15, marking the film's 35th anniversary. The film was originally released on Jan. 24, 1984.
"El Norte" tells the story of siblings, Rosa Xuncax (Zaide Silvia Gutierrez) and Enrique Xuncax (David Villalpando), who must flee from Guatemala because of political violence. After their father is killed by the Guatemalan military and their mother is taken, Rosa and Enrique are left to survive on their own. The siblings embark on their journey to the north, with very little money and only the clothes on their backs with the hopes of a better life in the U.S.
After leaving Guatemala, their first stop is in Tijuana, Mexico. They look for a "coyote," Raimundo Gutierrez (Abel Franco), who was recommended to them. The term coyote refers to someone who illegally crosses people from the Mexican border over to the U.S. Raimundo agrees to help Rosa and Enrique cross, but only through the old sewage tunnels that connects Tijuana and the U.S. However through the mountains in order to avoid getting caught.
The tunnel scene was the most difficult to watch because a swarm of rats attack Rosa and Enrique as they are crawling through. A couple of movie goers were covering their eyes and "Oh my God" was heard throughout the theater. This particular scene was very impactful as it shows the great lengths people will go through to escape the danger in their native lands.
Families are still being separated and many South American immigrants still face similar governmental problems as they did 35 years ago, which this film illustrates. This makes this film still relevant today..
The director, Gregory Nava, was featured in an interview before the film began and spoke directly to the audience, discussing the relevancy this film has today.
"35 years…and the situation is still the same," Nava said. "The story of Rosa and Enrique is even more relevant than 35 years ago."
The journey of Rosa and Enrique was finally completed when they reached Los Angeles, but their hardships were sadly not. The film shows the difficulties of communicating with a language barrier, surviving on a low paying job and the fear of being caught by immigration officers.

North America: Artifacts at risk as Black Warrior River erodes soil at Moundville
An archaeological team with the University of Alabama is working to save artifacts from an eroding stretch of the Black Warrior River's bank on the north side of Moundville Archaeological Park.

"This is a salvage operation to get as much as we can," said archaeologist Jera Davis, who is part of the team excavating the site.
The sites along the bank overlooking the river have been endangered by rapid erosion caused by a shift in the river channel. The salvage effort is a stopgap measure until UA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers can agree on a plan to stabilize the stretch of riverbank along the wooded northern border of the park, according to Matt Gage, director of the UA Office of Archaeological Research.
"Since 2010, we have really seen a major change in what is happening with the erosion in this area," Gage said.
The university and the Corps are trying to work on a feasibility study, he said.
The stabilization work would likely be funded by local and federal matching funds, with the Corps responsible for the stabilization and the university assisting with the archaeological work at the site.
At a site below the raised walkway that runs along the edge of the bank, the team has been excavating a midden heap — or trash pit — for about a week.
The bank below the excavation is a steep slope of exposed sandy soil where the trunks of toppled cypress and gum trees protrude from the silt at the water's edge.
Gage estimated the staff has about six to eight months of salvage work along the riverbank on the edge of the park. The salvage by the archaeologists needs to be done before the stabilization work begins and before the valuable archaeological deposits slide down the slope into the river.
Only about 15 percent of the massive Moundville complex has been excavated. The section threatened by the river is among the least explored, according to Davis.
The site overlooking the river was likely one of the first and last places to be occupied at the complex, which was inhabited from roughly the 11th to 16th centuries by Native Americans of the Mississippian culture. The site was a religious and commercial center, home to both elite and commoners of the culture.
Based on materials found in the trash pit, experts say the sites near the river were likely the residential areas for the elite members of the society. The items include such things as shards of elaborate ceramics and mineral pigments from the Midwest, Davis said.
The trash pits offer glimpses of daily life at the sprawling complex, once the second largest of its kind in what is now the United States.
Moundville is eligible as a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization World Heritage site, Gage said.
Erosion along the bank is speeding up, he warned.
"Every day, we are losing a little bit of Moundville," he said.
In the past, a natural jetty formed by silt deposits at the mouth of Carthage Branch to the east of the park helped protect the stretch of riverbank by redirecting the current. The recent changes to the river channel eroded the natural barrier and began to cut away at the bank along the Moundville site, Gage said. He estimated that approximately 30 meters of riverbank has been lost since 1969. The Corps of Engineers stabilized a stretch of riverbank northwest of the park roughly 25 years ago with riprap and other stone to prevent erosion.
While the Corps was previously able to stabilize the riverbank on the northwest corner of the park with aggregate, the erosion occurring now is a more challenging engineering problem because of the steep slope of the bank, which drops almost immediately into the river channel, Gage said.
Gage anticipates the project could cost anywhere from $7 million to $11 million.
"It all depends on what the Army Corps of Engineers decides is a possibility," he said.

North America: Artifacts at risk as Black Warrior River erodes soil at Moundville + USA


The GWapproximation to the formally exact many-body perturbation theory has been applied successfully to materials for several decades. Since the practical calculations are extremely cumbersome, the GW self-energy is most commonly evaluated using a first-order perturbative approach: This is the so-called G0W0 scheme. However, the G0W0 approximation depends heavily on the mean-field theory that is employed as a basis for the perturbation theory. Recently, a procedure to reach a kind of self-consistency within the GW framework has been proposed. The quasiparticle self-consistent GW (QS GW) approximation retains some positive aspects of a self-consistent approach, but circumvents the intricacies of the complete GW theory, which is inconveniently based on a non-Hermitian and dynamical self-energy. This new scheme allows one to surmount most of the flaws of the usual G0W0 at a moderate calculation cost and at a reasonable implementation burden. In particular, the issues of small band gap semiconductors, of large band gap insulators, and of some transition metal oxides are then cured. The QSGW method broadens the range of materials for which the spectral properties can be predicted with confidence.

Some women have a complicated relationship with food, while others have a complicated relationship with their mothers-in-law. In my case, food has complicated my relationship with my mother-in-law.
To give a bit of context, there are two things that one should be aware of about Portuguese culture. First, the relationship between mother and son is based on the fact that he will forever be her menino*, whether he's a little boy of three, or staring middle-age directly in the face. Secondly, generally, a meal can't really be considered a meal unless there's a serving of rice on your plate, whatever else is already on it. I quickly absorbed this fact shortly after arriving in Lisbon. The majority of the lunches I ate at the café nearby school routinely served up a double-carb combo of chips and rice alongside the principal element of the meal. I became so used to this that I'd be disappointed if either chips or rice were missing from my plate. My blood-sugar levels must have been sky-high, but the insulating layer of fat I laid down that year served me well during the winter, as the apartment I lived in was decidedly draughty and as cold an igloo once the sun had set.
By spring, temperatures were rising on all fronts. Not only was my accommodation less chilly, but my romantic life was hotting up as my courtship with my future husband blossomed.
That summer I finally met my boyfriend's mother. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. She was perfectly friendly, although she clearly adored her son and only child. One evening I made us all a Thai curry, which she enjoyed and she later asked for the recipe. I went to copy it down, verbatim, but was stopped in my tracks when she told me to only list the ingredients, no measurements or method – an idiosyncrasy that continues to this day, perhaps allowing her the opportunity refine or improve my efforts….
On the day of our marriage, which by this point was a signing-on-the dotted line formality after seven years of cohabitation and the arrival of two babies, my mother-in-law sat in the registry office looking forlorn. Despite my own mother's attempts to cajole her, gently suggesting that she was gaining a daughter, not losing a son, she only visibly perked up at the celebratory lunch, presumably after a fillet of bacalhau** and sufficient rice had been placed before her.
That Christmas, and by this time aged forty and judging myself to be up to the task, I decided that it was time to cook my first ever traditional English Christmas lunch. I went all out, including all the trimmings. I was particularly pleased with my homemade bread sauce until my mother-in-law asked if I'd made it from a sachet. Adding insult to injury, she went on to question whether the indulgent sauce that accompanied the Christmas pudding, which I'd concocted using my Mum's recipe, was from a carton. So worn out from my exertions in the kitchen by this point, I disaffirmed weakly, but if memory serves, then drained my wine glass in one fell swoop, inwardly muttering "give me strength".
In later conversation with his mother about the festive feast, her son enquired if she'd enjoyed it. The answer was yes, but…."não havia arroz" (there wasn't any rice). Incredulous that anything else was required on the Christmas plate, I am ashamed to admit that I was less than gracious in response to my husband when he recounted this story.
The following Christmas, mother-in-law brought a bag of Uncle Ben's basmati rice and a packet of Knorr stock cubes, along with other British goodies from London. The message was pretty clear and despite inwardly seething at first, I've made a pot of rice, as well as everything else, every year on Christmas Day ever since. Annoyingly, my daughter now gets a bit hoity-toity if rice is missing from any roast dinner. Perhaps it's genetic.
I have a very good relationship with my mother-in-law and honestly think that she's genuinely pleased that her beloved boy has created a happy home and family independent of her. Last weekend we hosted a family dinner and I made a fruit crumble for dessert. It was devoured by all and my mother-in-law asked how I'd made it. My explanation that I'd mixed frozen fruits of the forest into fresh apples in the base was slightly lost in translation, her assumption being that all the fruit I'd used had come straight from a packet ("I'm old-fashioned, I peel my own apples"). Why I felt so judged, I cannot explain, but decided to let this one go.
This week another birthday came and went and my parents-in-law phoned to wish me a happy day. At the end of our conversation, my mother-in-law exclaimed: "I loved your crumble….and I love you!". And hard-won as it might feel, I'm guessing that this Bifa has gained full acceptance, despite having purloined her golden boy. I'm hopeful this state of affairs will continue, which it should – as long as there's always rice.
*Usually refers to a young boy, but it can also be used affectionately, often to denote possession ("meu menino" – my boy).
**Salt-cod. Forms part of the foundation of Portuguese cuisine. Fresh cod is a rarity.
Double-carbs are never necessary (unless it's roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings 😉).

From my column in Niexter, Unwritten Thoughts: The important thing is what happens after that first impression – whether we get the book just because of its cover, or we read a little deeper, before making a decision? Similarly, after the first meeting, a person's personality should take over.
Looks can be deceiving. Something that seems perfect at first glance might not be so wonderful, while something that looks ordinary might hide something brilliant. Even diamonds start as rough rocks. Their inner beauty shines only after someone takes the time to polish them.
Similar to diamonds, people need to be given the time and opportunity to shine. Susan Boyle is an example. The audience didn't expect much from her, but she stunned everyone with her beautiful voice and incredible notes. This goes to show that unassuming people often have the most extraordinary talent. There's a saying in Malaysia, "kecil-kecil cili padi," which refers to how the smallest chilies are the spiciest.
Participants from the reality TV show The Voice validate this idea. They are ordinary at first glance, but those fleeting images can be misleading, and the contestants can be highly talented. Even Mark Zuckerburg is not a particularly imposing man, but he founded Facebook and became a multi-billionaire. This hidden potential is why we need to take the time to know people for who they are. Once we do, appearances fall away, and we appreciate the person instead for a beautiful personality.
Sometimes, a person's looks can make us feel intimidated and discourage us from making them our friends. But they are still human. Even gruff-looking people value friendships, and might not be as they seem. We shouldn't shy away from someone because of appearances as we might miss out on a great friend by doing so.
Outside appearances shouldn't sway us. The best books have the simplest covers, and it is the inside that counts.

1995 Honda VFR700/750F - Added by Dejakes.nospam.hotmail.com on 19-Nov-2014

More Information on the Honda VFR700/750F
The Honda VFR750F is motorcycle produced by Honda from 1986 to 1997. Originally intended as a sports bike to compete with the Suzuki GSX-R750 and Yamaha FZ750 it was reassigned to a sports tourer with its replacement in racing of the Honda VFR750R followed by the introduction of the more rounded 1990 VFR750FL. The fully faired motorcycle was introduced with a 104 horsepower (77 kW) liquid-cooled double overhead cam (DOHC) V4 four-stroke engine. All generations of VFR750F since 1990 had an ELF-designed pro-arm single-sided rear swingarm and since 1986 had durable, gear-driven cams.
The original VFR750F was first introduced to journalists after the 1985 Bol d'Or, and launched at Jerez, Spain. Introduced for 1986 as a complete redesign of the VF700/750F models in order to address some of the camshaft and bearing problems that had become associated with the first-generation Honda V4 engines, and to improve Honda's negative image concerning this engine. Compared to the VF750F, the new VFR750F had greater power output (104 hp up from 83 hp), lighter weight (claimed 20 kg), a lower center of gravity, a wider front tire, a slightly shorter wheelbase (15mm) gear driven cams and six rather than five gears.
"Tariff beater" 700 cc versions (VFR700F) of the first-generation bike were available alongside 750 cc versions in the US market, due to the tax laws in place at the time that penalized large-displacement imported motorcycles (in order to protect the troubled Harley Davidson Motor Company).
In the Japanese domestic market there were other VFR750F variants:
VFR750P - A police-specification model with its own distinctive model number (RC35) was restricted to 77 ps (75 hp) and fitted with a five-speed gearbox, modified main stand, gear indicator, uprated alternator, crash bars, higher handlebars, and modified speedometer. This bike was not offered for sale to the general public.
VFR750K - Not to be confused with the VFR750FK, this bikini faired training version of the VFR750F, again with its own distinctive model number (RC37), was restricted to 77 ps (75 hp). The oil cooler was removed and it was fitted with a modified main stand and gear indicator. This bike was offered for sale to the general public.
Although not designed as a race bike, in 1986 British racer Ron Haslam took a standard VFR750F to third place in a soaked Transatlantic Challenge race at Donington Park, UK
A very special VFR750F called the '6X', a 135 hp@13000RPM / 188 mph full HRC prototype using RVF cycle parts and containing titanium valves, magnesium cases and flat-slide carburetors, weighing 165 kg (dry), even less than the factory RVF, was first seen ridden by Wayne Gardner at a Suzuka test against TT F1 machinery. Wayne trounced the opposition, smashing his four-stroke lap record by 1.5s. 6 Examples of the '6X' were built, 4 for the Domestic Championships and 2 for the American Championships.
The VFR '6X' was raced at the Isle of Man TT by Geoff Johnson, coming in 2nd to Joey Dunlop in both the F1 and Senior TT.
In the United States Fred Merkel and Wayne Rainey contested the 1986 AMA Camel Pro Championship, which at the time had both Superbike and F1 races but only one championship, with the best finish of the day counting. Merkel just rode in the Superbike while Rainey did the F1 as well. Merkel won two races and Rainey seven, but the championship was won by Flyin' Fred Merkel by only two points.
For 1987 Fred's bike was passed to Bubba Shobert who took 3rd place in 1987, being beaten by Wayne Rainey and Kevin Schwantz. The points he earned during the 1987 season gained him victory in the AMA Grand National. In 1988 Shobert won three of the seven races to win the AMA superbike championship.
The engine developed in the 6X became the basis for the factory racer, the VFR750R. An engine race kit was available for the 1986 VFR from HRC for $4,000 (USD), including a titanium exhaust.
The VFR750F models all used 748 cc 16-valve gear driven DOHC liquid-cooled 90° V4 engines with carburetor-based air/fuel induction; the bore/stroke remained the same for all 750 models at 70.0 x 48.6 mm (2.756 x 1.913 inches). The engine was made of cast aluminium alloy with the crankcase being divided horizontally, VFR750P and VFR750K models use slightly different crankcases with the lower casing being modified to allow for the gear position indicator in place of the neutral switch. On all the VFR750 models the gear drive for the cams was between the cylinders. Lubrication was via a wet sump with a chain-driven, dual-rotor oil pump; an oil (air) cooler was also fitted. The transmission was a 6-speed, with a constant-mesh, wet multi-plate clutch and chain drive to the rear wheel with the exception of the 5-speed VFR750P which had a spacer in place of one of the gears.
The VFR750F uses a 180° crank, instead of the 360 degree crank used in the VF and VFR750R.
In comparison to the VF750 almost every component had weight shaved off it, each con-rod lost 90g, rocker arms 6g, intake valve 0.5g, exhaust valves 1.5g, pistons 20g, piston rings 1.3g per set, valve springs 17g each.
The V4 engine has proven itself highly reliable, with few known faults. The gear-driven camshaft system removed any lingering concerns about cam-chain maintenance, which had dogged the VF-series of Honda V4 engines. Valve adjustment on first-generation VFR750Fs was by screw and locknut, which changed in 1990 to shim-under-bucket, along with the valve-clearance inspection interval (to 16,000 miles). However, RC36 engines have been known to reach well over 50,000 miles without any need to adjust the valve clearances.
Second- and third-generation VFR750Fs have notoriously suffered from failed regulators/rectifiers, likely caused by heat damage. Although Honda eventually re-designed the replacement part, such that failures of the new, finned regulator/rectifier are rare, some VFR750F owners carry spare regulator/rectifiers or even install small cooling fans to prevent reg/rec units from overheating.
The VFR750F was the first of the 750 class to have an aluminium twin spar frame, weighing just 14 kg and the nearest thing on the road to the VFR, the GSX-R also had an aluminium frame but it was of a conventional twin cradle design.
First-generation VFR750Fs sported anti-dive (adjustable on some models) on the damping-rod front 37 mm Showa forks (uprated to 41mm for 1988) and a conventional, dual-sided aluminium swingarm with a centrally located Showa damping unit with remote hydraulic pre-load adjustment at the rear.
Second-generation models had non-adjustable 41 mm cartridge-style Showa front forks, coupled with a remotely adjustable (for pre-load) emulsion-type Showa shock absorber and the trademark single-sided swing arm. Honda soon upgraded the VFR750F's suspension to include pre-load adjustment on the forks, and damping adjustment on the shock. The bike's distinctive swing arm, derived from the ELF-designed race-bike Pro-Arm development work, has the advantage of allowing rear-wheel removal without the need to remove the drive chain or rear axle, and allows chain adjustment to be made very simply with no concerns of altering wheel alignment.
Third-generation VFR750Fs continued to use the same basic suspension components as the VFR750FN/P, though the single-sided swing arm was redesigned to reduce weight.
The VFR750F can be divided into three distinct "generations", with significant revisions having taken place upon the introduction of the VFR750FL in 1990 and the VFR750FR in 1994. The VFR750F ceased production in 1997 with the introduction of the VFR800Fi, marketed in the US as the "Interceptor" and in the UK as the "VFR".
1986–1987 - VFR750FG/H (RC24)
New model based on a complete redesign of the VF750F, full fairing, alloy twin-spar frame, gear-driven camshafts, single-color paintwork, and 16 inch front and 18 inch rear wheels. The VFR750FG also had a cam sensor which was omitted from all later versions.

Your trusted partner to resolve government acquisition issues.
If your company is an unsuccessful bidder for a government contract, or has won an award and an unsuccessful bidder is protesting your award, it is important to vigorously defend your rights. In the federal market, bid protests are an integral oversight mechanism, ensuring that federal acquisitions are carried out in accordance with procurement statutes and regulations. Bid protests can be brought in different forums and are subject to strict timelines that must be properly followed. Whether as a successful awardee or disappointed bidder, all companies must understand the bid protest process to successfully defend their own contract awards from protest or to vindicate their rights to full and open competition as a protester. Williamson Law Group is experienced in all aspects of bid protests and can help you make the best decisions for your business.
Understanding and navigating "Buy American" laws and regulations, such as the Buy American Act, Trade Agreement Act, and the Berry Amendment, is becoming increasingly important for U.S. businesses. The area can be a confusing and complex interaction between domestic preference laws and international free trade agreements, with many exceptions and exemptions. There can be significant penalties for non-compliance. Williamson Law Group attorneys have significant experience advising clients on how to comply with all Buy American requirements, and representing clients for non-compliance issues or violations.
In the event your company suffers damages from a contract action or inaction by the government or a prime contractor, Williamson Law Group can develop and prosecute a claim to protect your rights and recover damages. We have helped clients in resolving claims with either litigation or through settlement reached well before trial. We are experienced in typical claims issues such as constructive changes, superior knowledge, differing site conditions, liquidated damages, and terminations, as well highly technical claims involving complex cost accounting and other issues such as economic price adjustment provisions, CAS compliance, Anti-Deficiency Act violations, and Truth in Negotiation Act price adjustments.
No matter how carefully a contract is drafted, there may be instances where one Party wishes to change the terms or restructure the contract. Williamson Law Group is experienced in restructuring and negotiating changes to government contracts. We have negotiated all types of changes to government contracts from minor changes to changing contract type and other complex restructuring"—For example, we have restructured cost reimbursable type contracts into firm fixed price contracts, as well as negotiated partial terminations and resulting contract restructuring.
Government contracts may be partially or completely terminated at any time by the Government. Terminations can be at the convenience of the Government, or may be for some alleged fault. Each termination type must be handled properly to receive your full settlement and mitigate future potential issues arising from the termination. Williamson Law Group has assisted clients in every type of termination, and is experienced at maximizing your settlement.
CRADAs are agreements to jointly perform research with a federal laboratory, accessing government resources. Under a CRADA, a federal laboratory is permitted to contribute Government personnel, services, facilities, and equipment to a joint effort to develop new technologies, but it may not provide appropriated funds. Because CRADAs are not subject to the FAR, and do not involve the payment of appropriated funds, they have fewer mandatory rules and regulations than are required in contracts. But individual agencies or laboratories sometimes include clauses that are not required, but pose significant risk–especially regarding intellectual property rights and ownership. Each CRADA must therefore be analyzed individually. We have significant experience analyzing CRADA terms and advising companies of the rights and risks involved in the agreement, and advising clients how to protect their critical intellectual property, maximize their rights and reduce risk.
Many contracts and federal assistance agreements with the federal Government are subject to special cost accounting and allowability rules under the Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and OMB regulations. Understanding the rules for allowability and allocability of costs on government contracts and federal assistance awards is critical to maximizing legitimate cost recovery and complying with the myriad of cost allowability requirements imposed by these regulations and standards. In addition, contractors are subject to increasingly rigorous and comprehensive audits of their accounting practices and policies, particularly by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). Williamson Law Group attorneys are experts in cost accounting matters and assist with internal CAS, FAR and OMB compliance and cost accounting rules and counsel clients in how best to respond to audit findings and concerns.
Under some circumstances the Government can exclude (debarment) or suspend all procurement activity with a contractor. Debarment and suspension may arise out of government audits and investigations such as False Claims Act actions and may involve a variety of underlying issues, such as cost mischarging, defective pricing, environmental incidents, false small business certifications or other business ethics matters.
The Truth in Negotiations Act (TINA) imposes strict financial disclosure responsibilities on government contractors. Where TINA applies, your company must certify that, to the best of its knowledge, its "cost or pricing data" are accurate, current, and complete as of the date of agreement on price. The Government has the right to audit the company's records to ensure that cost and pricing data are current, accurate, and complete. Failing to fully comply with TINA is a violation of law—known as "defective pricing"—subjecting your company to a unilateral price reduction and opening you up to civil and criminal penalties. We help clients avoid defective pricing allegations by counseling them on TINA requirements and assisting them to fully comply with the law. If a defective pricing issue is raised, we help the company respond to and negotiate post-award audit allegations. And, if negotiations break down, we help them litigate—and win.
The False Claims Act (FCA) is available to the Government and private whistleblower (qui tam) plaintiffs for a broad spectrum of alleged frauds committed under government contracts and federal assistance grants. Government contractors and grantees are at risk that the Government or private plaintiffs will allege violations of the FCA and claim significant damages and penalties based on the FCA's remedies for treble damages and statutory penalties per claim. Williamson Law Group is experienced at investigating the alleged misconduct and assisting clients take the appropriate actions to mitigate impact on the company.
Grants and cooperative agreements are primary ways that the government funds projects to promote the public good and are a significant source of funding for many nonprofit organizations, research institutions, and for-profit companies. While grants and cooperative agreements are not government contracts, and are not subject to the FAR, they are still subject to strict regulatory requirements and compliance obligations. We regularly advise clients on compliance with grant and cooperative agreement terms, and have extensive experience negotiating prime agreements and sub-agreements. Like government contractors, grant and cooperative agreement recipients have increasingly become the targets of government audits, investigations, and enforcement actions. We have successfully represented clients in connection with agency audits, Office of Inspector General (OIG) and U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) investigations, and other actions. We also have extensive experience assisting clients with conducting internal investigations of alleged misconduct and determining whether corrective action is warranted, including a potential disclosure to the government.
International government contracting activities span a spectrum starting with marketing, through contract formation and performance issues, to successfully managing disputes. The legal challenges include, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and U.S. export control support (which continues throughout contract performance); assistance with business structure and foreign tax issues; payment guarantees, foreign subcontractor issues, and negotiation of issues as they arise during performance of international contracts. Williamson Law Group has experience in all aspects of international contracting.
Williamson Law Group attorneys have experience with the complex legal issues that face the Management and Operating (M&O) contractors that operate the Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratories and the National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA) complex. We understand the special relationship between the Government and the contractor and how it effects legal actions, including such things as contract negotiation with the Government and subcontractors; prime contract and subcontractor disputes; handling sensitive internal and government agency investigations; compliance with DOE rules; cost allowability issues; and other government contracting issues. In addition, we have experience investigating and representing clients in Price Anderson Amendment Act (PAAA) enforcement actions with DOE.
Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreements provide funding for innovative research projects or prototypes for federal agencies, without all the constraints of a typical contract, grant, or cooperative agreement. OTAs can include for-profit large or small companies, nonprofit organizations, and academic research institutions. Because they are known sources of innovative new technologies, nontraditional companies (those that typically do not work with the Government) are particularly encouraged to participate in OTAs. The flexibility of OTA terms, along with favorable rule changes, have made OTAs an increasingly popular choice for federal research and prototype development projects in recent years. However, OTAs carry risks that must be considered, and that vary by agency. We have experience structuring and analyzing OTA agreements and negotiating OTA terms to minimize client risk, and maximize intellectual property rights and other terms favorable for the client.
Contracts are only successful when you are paid a fair price at the right time. Williamson Law Group is experienced with all government contract payment terms, in both prime contract and subcontracts. We can help structure your proposal to include payment terms optimal to your business. We help you decipher the sometime confusing maze of contract types and payment terms, so you can make sound financial and business decisions. When your contract has not received funding or if you have not been timely paid Williamson Law Group will help to ensure your rights are protected.
Government contracts provide for equitable adjustments for changes, scope growth, delays, and other unforeseeable occurrences. Williamson Law Group works with management, program, accounting, and engineering personnel to develop strategies for recovery. We investigate the facts, formulate optimal legal theories and draft and present requests for equitable adjustment (REAs) to maximize your recovery.
Compliance with the wage and fringe benefit payment and related obligations under the Service Contract Act, the Walsh-Healey Public Contract Act, and the Davis-Bacon Act are key concerns for government contractors. Non-compliance with these requirements can lead to substantial back wage or fringe benefit liabilities, contract termination, or debarment from federal contracting. Williamson Law Group attorneys regularly provide guidance and representation on these wage and fringe benefit compliance issues. Our attorneys are also experienced with how the applicable requirements are affected by Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs), and asserting REAs to increase contract rates when a revised wage determination (WD) applies, or working with the client to assert a claim where needed.
Small businesses compete for government contracts and subcontracts in several categories including the 8(a) Business Development, Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), Veteran-Owned, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone), Women-Owned, and Mentor-Protégé. Large businesses must be sensitive to small business requirements as well–large businesses must meet required goals in small business subcontracting plans in many of their contracts. In addition, large businesses frequently team with small businesses under small business set-aside contracts. It is essential that both large and small businesses understand the unique requirements associated with these arrangements, as they have recently become the subject of increased scrutiny. Williamson Law Group is experienced in all areas of government contract small business practice and can help structure the business to avoid common pitfalls such as affiliation or other issues.

HYDROGEN: FRENCH AuRA REGION TAKES THE LEAD
The Auvergne Rhône Alpes region has set itself the ambition of being France and Europe's leading region in hydrogen deployment. The impetus has been gathering pace since 2017, with innovative projects between the public and private sectors, backing from the EU, and concrete achievements already in place. We summarize the advances for you.
"Zero emission Valley" or carbon-free transportation
With its "Zero emission Valley" project, the AuRA Region provides the means to go with its ambition. The 2021 targets are to bring 20 hydrogen distribution stations on line and deploy 1000 fuel-cell vehicles and 15 electrolysers, to replace 4.3 million litres of diesel oil with hydrogen, and to enable a 13,000-tonne reduction in CO2 emissions.
By ensuring hydrogen production and vehicle development go hand in hand, "Zero Emission Valley" paves the way for rapid economic equilibrium, a major factor in stimulating the development of this energy.
The first station, built by Savoy company Atawey, will be in operation at the Landiers Nord business park in La Motte Servolex by November, 2019 and sport the "Hy" banner. This will be the first in-situ production-distribution unit based on electrolysis of water. Running on electricity from renewable sources, the station will be able to fill up fifty or so vehicles per day. Fifteen businesses and local authorities in the Chambery-Grand Lac economic area have already committed to acquiring a total of forty vehicles.
To implement this project, a successful entry in the EU's Blending Call contest, the Region has set up the Hympulsion company with investment from public and private shareholders. Since November, 2018, Engie, Michelin, and several banks have joined the Region and the EU to provide Hympulsion with a 50-million-euro budget.
Alongside this, the Auvergne Rhône Alpes region is partly subsidizing the purchase of the first thousand utility vehicles or light vans for work use (local authorities or associations), which undertake to drive at least 8,000 kilometres yearly.
Co-piloting hydrogen deployment in Europe
Identified by the EU thanks to its "Zero Emission Valley" project, the AuRA region has joined forces with Normandy in France, Aragon in Spain, and North Netherlands to co-pilot European development of this future-facing energy. As winners of last June's "3S Hydrogen Valleys" project, these regions will run a European platform that has set ambitious objectives: to accelerate the transition of hydrogen technologies from the laboratory to the market by boosting access to European level funding while helping SMBs and start-ups overcome obstacles to their development and market expansion.
DMany stakeholders from Auvergne Rhône Alpes have mobilized their forces to provide the necessary expertise: EDF, Air Liquide, GRT Gaz, Mc Phy, Symbio Fcell, Atawey and others. CEA Liten, CNRS, and Grenoble INP will in turn be providing resources for research and technology.

Family join messy madness to 'do something positive'
A DAD and his daughters are preparing to get covered in paint and gunge in support of the hospice caring for their family.
Carl, Amber and Ayrah Ives, from Littleworth, near Worcester, are set to take on the St Richard's Hospice Messy Madness fun run this Saturday, July 27th.
They were inspired to sign-up to "do something positive" for St Richard's which is caring for their mum, Michelle, who has skin cancer – and is supporting the whole family with counselling.
Mr Ives, aged 47, said: "Ayrah did some mindfulness at school and declared she felt helpless with regard to mum's illness. We chatted and decided to do some fundraising as a way of tackling that feeling.
"It is the same for all of us. You feel so powerless watching someone you love being ill – but doing something positive to help others in a similar situation makes you feel a bit more empowered and helps with dealing with the emotions."
The trio will challenge themselves to complete the 5k course at Churchfields Farm, Droitwich, and have already raised more than £1,000.
Mrs Ives has attended art therapy, complementary therapy and t'ai chi sessions as part of her St Richard's care.
She has also received individual counselling and couples counselling with her husband, provided by the hospice's Family Support Team.
Amber, 11, and Ayrah, eight, have both been given individual and joint support, along with counselling and have attended the Waterbugs pre-bereavement support group with their dad.
Mr Ives said: "Basically, the whole family is supported by St Richard's – and in these difficult days, knowing they are there, and will be throughout and beyond Michelle's illness, is a real comfort as you don't feel so isolated from everyone else's world.
"St Richard's has been so good to the whole family and it means a lot to us to put something back as well. We hope doing the run will benefit us as it will be a fun day to remember and will help us with our emotions."

St Richard's Hospice cares for adults with a serious progressive illness, improving their quality of life from diagnosis, during treatment and to their last days. It also supports their loved ones.
Each year the hospice team supports more than 3,300 patients, family members and bereaved people in Worcestershire.
St Richard's is an independent charity and relies on donations and gifts in Wills for the majority of its income with 22% funded by the NHS.
The hospice is also raising funds for the Build 2020 Appeal and is part way through developing a bigger hospice, enabling more patients and families to be cared for in Worcestershire. The total cost for expanding and redeveloping the existing building in Wildwood Drive, Worcester, is £5.3m.

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Dec 11, 2013) - Manilla, the leading, free and secure digital mailbox service that allows consumers to manage their bills and other personal accounts on desktop, tablet and mobile devices, announced today that it has added healthcare accounts to its growing directory of more than 3,500 businesses and 400,000 custom-created local and regional accounts. Customers will now be able manage their healthcare accounts, including the option to view statements of benefits and deductible balances, in a separate section alongside Manilla's already established categories of financial and brokerage, household, travel, entertainment and subscription accounts.
This enhancement not only helps solidify Manilla's everything-in-one-place value proposition, but it also further establishes Manilla as the nation's leading consumer digital mailbox service and a lower-cost and timelier alternative to physical postal mail.
Manilla is also announcing a new partner commitment to immediate paper and postage cost savings, as well as a guaranteed return on investment through accelerated paperless adoption. Manilla is introducing a platform that will bring more insurer customers to partner websites.
"Our consumer research shows that the majority of people either haven't established login information for managing healthcare accounts online, or they can't remember what that login information is," said Jim Schinella, CEO of Manilla. "That's a crucial first step to building an ongoing digital relationship with their insurance providers. Consequently, consumers have a relatively unaided understanding of their explanation of benefits (EOB) documents, which are critical to understanding and managing their own healthcare."
According to a recent Manilla survey, more than 45 percent of Manilla customers said they were more satisfied with their service providers because Manilla makes it easy to access all of their important documents and visit partner websites with one password. By allowing consumers to use Manilla to now manage their healthcare accounts, Manilla will achieve its goal of helping insurers and their customers better communicate with each other in a way that strengthens the relationship between the two.
Health insurance companies are among the lowest paperless adoption business segments in the United States today. By joining the Manilla business network -- which already includes more than 170 brands, including industry leaders, such as AT&T, Citibank and DIRECTV -- insurance providers can now demonstrate not only environmental leadership but also their readiness for a deeper digital relationship with their consumers.
Manilla's business partners benefit from their customers receiving their bills and statements through Manilla. U.S. businesses spend 70 cents to $1 to print, collate, and mail every bill and statement. Manilla's efficient solution helps significantly reduce the traditional paper mailing costs to businesses.
Manilla organizes and simplifies people's lives by providing one secure access point to all household accounts and services. The free digital mailbox service helps consumers manage their mail and household accounts, including financial and brokerage, utility, travel, entertainment, subscription and healthcare accounts all through Manilla.com. Consumers can also use all of the Manilla features on the go by using Manilla's 4+ star customer-rated Android and iOS mobile apps. Under a single password, Manilla gives customers an automated, organized view of all of their account information, text and email reminders to pay bills, renew expiring subscriptions, and manage soon-to-expire daily deals, all with unlimited storage and seamless document retrieval.
Manilla is a company incubated within and backed by Hearst Corporation. Manilla is the recipient of the Webby Award and People's Voice Award for Best Banking/Bill Pay Service and was chosen as a top service on Kiplinger's Personal Finance's 2013 Best of Everything List, as ABC News "App of the Week," as one of Money Magazine's "Top Money Apps" and as one of PCMag.com's Top 100 Websites.
