Another point Slater wanted to argue: the idea that he had a home-court advantage. “I have an Airstream on the property next door, and everyone thinks that I just, like, live up here and surf it all the time.” Not so, he said, and pointed out that the W.S.L. has invited surfers on the Championship Tour to practice at Surf Ranch. “There’s a lot of guys on tour that have surfed this thing a lot more than I have,” he said. “I didn’t design some secret that no one else could figure out.” Yago Dora, a young Brazilian wizard, had ridden the wave earlier that day and suggested a tweak. “I was, like, ‘I’m so glad you brought that up,’ ” Slater said. “I’m waiting for any surfer, any guy on tour, any friend of mine, to say, ‘What if you did this or that? What kind of wave would you end up with?’ Tell me exactly what you want.”

Commenter: Jerome CarolfiA $24,000 loan cost me $75,000 and untold hours of agonizing. I was a student in the ’80s who attended a state college as an undergraduate and later did an MFA at a private art college. In all, I borrowed about $23,000 in the course of my undergraduate and graduate studies. After graduating in 1987, the program from which i had borrowed informed me i had to repay my student loan on a very aggressive schedule in order to comply with state law. Sallie Mae was right there with loan consolidation to make the payments manageable, and at a significantly higher interest rate than i had. In retrospect I am shocked by my willful ignorance of how the borrowing was set up. At that time I was earning $19,000 a year and about 1/3 of my takehome salary went to payments. Then as the 1990 recession got underway, I was without work for an extended period of time and deferred payment on the loans. When I finally did start working again, the capitalized interest from the deferments made my monthly payment even higher than it had been, but my financial position hadn’t really immproved. Eventually I ended up defaulting on the loan. During the Clinton years I was able to bring the loan out of default and a into federal loan rehabilitation program. that came with substantial penalties, and by the time the loan was paid off, I had repaid about $75,000 over a 25 year payment. Now I have an "over-my-head" "under-water" mortgage. Apparently all those years carrying a crushing student loan instilled a strong debt ethic in me. My hope for every young person going through school is that they understand the economic realities of borrowing for education. The country is sure to suffer now that higher education has slipped from the grasp of more and more young people who could otherwise do so much to create a better and more prosperous society in the future.

Ironically, it’s that sense of poise, almost regardless of speed or conditions, that is also the RS5’s Achilles heel. It demystifies the art of driving with gusto to the point where what should be heart-stopping becomes humdrum.

Body Painting – Body preparation and levelling was the quickest job of all, since all the body panels were crafted with utmost precision and perfection. Their painter and perpetrators had an easy task with very minimum body filler and putty to be used. The full body got primed using marine grade primer and surface for better rust protection. The color theme was also pre-planned in dual tone – same like the Jeep Wrangler JK. The body is refinished in fire cracker red, with hard top and accessories in black.

“Crowds remained about the streets until late at night. “While the sirens were sounding yesterday morning, crews of ships and tugs brought out all their flags from their lockers, and by the time the first joy-riders in the home-made peace procession were skirting the dockside for variety in their celebrations, the ships looked gay and their flags gave an answering wave to gesticulating figures beyond the railway gates.

Regarding automation, sources emphasized the need to look not just at the folding speed or part-to-part time, but the entire folding process.

In 2010, Obama issued a moratorium on offshore drilling. He used the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico as an excuse, but the truth is, his 2010 budget had already planned for government revenues from offshore drilling to decline 72 percent over the following five years. The moratorium caused gas prices to skyrocket, reaching nearly $4.00/gallon at the pump. Gas prices would remain above $3.00/gallon for a record 1,410 days. Obama did nothing to improve America’s oil production the entire time. Why not? Because he was busy spending billions to prop up green energy firms like Solyndra. Obama also opposed various oil pipelines like the Keystone XL pipeline—even threatening to veto any legislation approving its construction.

Because the folding beam tools are segmented, they can access bends in internal cutouts. And because the tools are angled, the folding beam itself need not swing 90 degrees to make a 90-degree angle; this prevents the beam from colliding with the workpiece.
