10" Champion Series PRO Subwoofer with 3000 Watts Max. (800 Watts Nom.)

  • Powerful design to deliver deep, impactful bass
  • Air Suspension System allows use in extremely small enclosures
  • Recommended Enclosure : 0.35 ~ 0.7 Cubic Feet

Introducing our new Champion Series PRO Subwoofers which feature a maximum power output of 3,000 watts. You now have a choice to select from either a Dual-Voice Coil 2-ohm or 4-ohm subwoofer:

  • TS-W2502D2: Dual 2 ohm, 4 Layer, Long Coil (1 ohm x or 4 ohm)
  • TS-W2502D4: Dual 4 ohm, 4 Layer, Long Coil (2 ohm x or 8 ohm)

The TS-W2502D2/4 subwoofers are designed to produce enormously powerful music. Just take a look at its super-heavy-duty construction, all designed to handle up to 3,000 watts max. Double-stacked magnets for higher power, and a step-up radial surround for superior control and long excursions. We used a constructed  cast-aluminum basket for this sub. Add in our patented IMPP cone and you've got a monster sub that can handle whatever you want to throw at it.

Air Suspension System
For its revolutionary 3.25 Inch deep Subwoofer, Pioneer created an air suspension system effective within a 70% smaller-than-previous enclosure that locks air for a spring-like effect between main and drive cones moving in unison. The result is consistently clear,powerful,wide ranging bass response. The subwoofer's dual cone structure maintains better sound linearity and reliability after hours of hard use than conventional subwoofers with "spider" structures to keep the voice coil aligned.

Double-Stack Magnet with Double-Stack Top Plate
To produce the tremendous magnetic energy we envisioned for this sub, we employed double-stacked magnets, weighing a hefty 85oz, and a double-stacked top plate above them. This design ensures positive, powerful control of the voice coil during those long excursions — and it's one reason you can ring up those high SPL numbers.

Wide-Roll 3-Layer Fiber Radial Surround
A sub's surround plays a key role in a speaker's performance. In order for bass response to be clear and tight, the surround has to respond evenly around its entire circumference without flexing or puckering, even at high volume levels. That's why Pioneer created a surround consisting of two layers of urethane with a layer of interwoven fiber between them. It's strong, stable, and it reduces distortion. In addition, the wider-than-normal design provides a long, linear excursion for excellent control and heavy-duty durability.

Interlaced Basalt/Carbon Fiber Reinforced IMPP Cone
To ensure that you get more natural bass, we’ve incorporated out new Basalt fiber technology into our shallow subwoofers. The volcanic-rock fibers create a cone that is lightweight, rigid, well damped, stable in temperature extremes, and more environmentally friendly. In short, this bass really rocks.

Cast Aluminum Basket
Designed from scratch by Pioneer, this one-piece aluminum basket assembly holds the motor assembly, cone, and magnet structure securely in place. The benefits of this design: reduced internal stress, superior damping, and increased magnetic efficiency.

Dual Voice Coil
TS-W2502D2/4 provides two voice coils, each either at dual 2 or dual 4 ohms. So you can use a low-impedance amp to produce much bigger, much more powerful bass. More options, more power: that's what DVC is all about.

Add Newly Designed Spoke Grilles
We also recommend covering up your subwoofer with the UD-G258. This stylish spoke grille is a must add-on when building a system and gives the look of pure professionalism.

Despite Dissatisfaction, Workers Plan to Stay Put

March 4, 2011 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – Although more than half of business professionals around the world report that they are dissatisfied with their jobs, a large majority plan to stay with their companies, according to new research from Accenture.

Specifically, the research found fewer than half (43% of women and 42% of men) of all respondents are satisfied with their current jobs, but nearly three-quarters (70% of women and 69% of men) plan to stay with their companies.

According to a press release, the top reasons for respondents’ dissatisfaction are being underpaid (47% of women, 44% of men); a lack of opportunity for growth (36%, 32%); no opportunity for career advancement (33%, 34%); and feeling trapped (29%, 32%). Despite this, more than half of respondents (59% and 57% of men), say that, this year, in an effort to enhance their careers, they will work on developing their knowledge and/or a skill set to achieve their career objectives.

Among top factors that would make respondents want to pursue career advancement were better compensation (65% of women, 67% of men); new, challenging assignments (44%, 48%); flexible work arrangements (39%, 34%); and leadership positions within their companies (22%, 28%).

Other survey findings, according to the press release, include:

  • Women overall were somewhat less likely than men to say they have asked for pay raises (44% versus 48%) and promotions (28% versus 39%);
  • Fewer than one-third of respondents (32% of women and 31% of men) report that they have a formal or informal mentor ;
  • While more than half of respondents (55% of women and 57% of men) are satisfied with the career levels they’ve reached, more women report that their careers are not fast tracked (63% versus 55%). At the same time, fewer women say they aim to reach C-level or equivalent positions (14% versus 22%);
  • When asked about factors that help women advance in their organizations, more than two-thirds of women (68%) but only about half of men (55%) cited hard work and long hours.

The research surveyed more than 3,400 professionals in 29 countries.

Northern Trust Reports Mostly Gains for US Institutional Plan Sponsors in Q1

April 25, 2006 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - Most US institutional investors posted solid gains for the first quarter of 2006, according to data from the Northern Trust Universe.

U.S. institutional plans had strong performance in the first quarter, in line with the gains made by all broad market equity indexes,” said Joe Nardulli, Product Manager, Northern Trust Investment Risk & Analytical, in a press release.

Corporate ERISA and Public Fund plans gained 4.7% and 4.5%, respectively, at the median, and Foundation and Endowment plans returned 4.8% at the median. Nardulli said that the exposure to small-cap and international stocks pushed performance, with those asset classes gaining about 13% and 9%, respectively, at the median, compared to 4.2% return for the S&P index.

Over longer time periods, all plan types in the Northern Trust Universe showed steady positive growth in three- and five-year performance numbers for the first quarter of 2006. ERISA plans gained 17% at the median over three years and 7.6% over five years. Public Fund plans returned 17.1% and 8% at the median over the three- and five-year periods.

Foundations and endowments returned 17.3% at the median over three years and 7.9% over five years. In the fourth quarter of 2005, most plan returns were approximately14.5% over three years and 5.5% over five years at the median.

AHIP pushed 'government option'

The leak today of an October email in which Fox News's Washington managing editor instructed reporters to use the phrase "government option" instead of public option for health care came months after the the linguistic party line had been set.

A former Republican Hill staffer closely involved in the battle over the health care plan — and concerned that credit go where it's due — e-mails that the case for the linguistic shift first emerged in February in research provided the GOP by the health insurance industry group America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP).

AHIP focus groups from late February (whose findings appear in this document, provided by the former aide) found that voters like the idea of a "public" plan, and that the most negative term is a "government-run health insurance plan."

A round of polling from AHIP in February and March confirmed that argument. "It is clear the most negative language to use when describing a 'public plan' is 'a government-run health insurance plan,'" reads a presentation the group distributed, starting in March, to allies, Republican staff and opinion leaders and to conservative media, according to the former aide.

Sen. John Ensign was the first to pick up the talking point in a March 24 release blasting a "Government-Run 'Public' Health Insurance Plan."

But by May 5, "government" was vying with "public" even in the pages of The New York Times, where Robert Pear wrote that Sen. Chuck Schumer "proposed that any new government-run insurance program comply with all the rules and standards that apply to private insurance."

Fox, then, may have been following the party line, or may have simply — as Jack Shafer argues — been picking among equal varieties of spin. The network wasn't, though, setting the party line.

CORRECTION: Frank Luntz did related research -- which leaked May 5 -- but said he did not work on the new documents linked above. An earlier update to this item incorrectly attributed them to him.

DENVER (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton is a hardworking champion of women, children and the poor. Or she’s a wealthy elitist more comfortable in Davos, Switzerland, than Davenport, Iowa.Which is it? If Clinton decides to again run for president, how voters answer that question could play a role in whether she’s able to win the White House.”They raised the bar on these issues with Mitt in 2012,” said Ron Kaufman, a longtime adviser to former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, whose wealth and business record were targeted by Democrats. “Now their candidates for president have to get over the same bar.”Perhaps the biggest news to come from the recent launch of Clinton’s memoir of her time as secretary of state isn’t what the book says about the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, but what she’s said about her personal finances while plugging the book.It started with an interview with ABC News in which she said she and husband Bill were “dead broke” when they left the White House in early 2001, grappling with millions of dollars in legal bills. Then there was the interview with the Britain’s Guardian newspaper, in which Clinton appeared to draw a distinction by saying her family paid an “ordinary income tax, unlike a lot of people who are truly well off.”The couple’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, was pulled into the fray when Politico reported that she earned $600,000 a year at NBC News, where she has infrequently appeared as a special correspondent.Those statements don’t mesh well with the fact the Clintons are, by almost any measure, quite wealthy, with an annual income that places them solidly among the top 1 percent of Americans. When she was secretary of state, Clinton’s financial disclosure report filed in 2012 showed the couple had an estimated net worth between $5 million and $25 million.The former first lady and New York senator is by no means a billionaire but can command $200,000 or more for a single speech — four times what the median American household takes home each year. The University of Nevada, Las Vegas, said Tuesday that Clinton would be paid $225,000 to speak at the university foundation’s annual dinner in October.Being rich isn’t necessarily a political liability for potential presidents. Democrats Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy both entered politics after privileged upbringings. The last two Republican presidents, George H.W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush, could vacation at the family’s Maine seaside compound or at the younger president’s sprawling Texas ranch.Former President Bill Clinton, who defended his wife this week as someone who isn’t “out of touch,” said a president’s wealth should matter less than the policies they seek to promote.”I think I had the lowest net worth of any American president in the 20th century when I took office. But I still could have been tone deaf,” Clinton said, adding: “The real issue is, if you’ve been fortunate enough to be successful, are you now out of touch and insensitive to the agonizing struggles other people are facing?”And yet Republicans still remember how President Barack Obama’s campaign dissected Romney’s business dealings and capitalized on his reluctance to release certain tax records. The campaign successfully created an image of Romney tied to his wealth that was cemented by a video of him telling donors that 47 percent of Americans would automatically vote for Obama because they don’t pay income taxes and are “dependent upon government.”Romney’s campaign tried to respond by portraying him as a success story and a business turnaround artist. But their efforts were undermined by a series of ready-for-YouTube gaffes in which Romney told out-of-work Floridians that “I’m also unemployed.” He told a New Hampshire audience that he liked “being able to fire people” and quipped to a Detroit gathering that his wife “drives a couple of Cadillacs.”Such comments are reminiscent of Clinton’s recent struggles to talk about her money and lifestyle, including a January remark in a speech to auto dealers that she hadn’t driven a car since 1996.While Clinton said this week that any comparisons to Romney were a “false equivalency,” they lend themselves to a still-forming GOP strategy of portraying her as a Washington insider who has enjoyed a privileged life sheltered by private jets, fancy homes and hobnobbing with the elites of Wall Street and Hollywood.Democrats argue that Clinton’s personal wealth won’t be able to overshadow a long career in public service, which began as an advocate for poor families at the Children’s Defense Fund and led to years of work in Arkansas and Washington on issues such as early childhood education, expanded health care coverage and job creation.”Attacks are most effective when they play into a pre-existing stereotype about a candidate,” said Ben LaBolt, a former Obama campaign spokesman. “Nobody thinks that Hillary Clinton spent her career focused on making money. She was in the public eye advocating for a policy agenda.”In the interview with PBS NewsHour broadcast Wednesday, Clinton said her record “speaks for itself” and her “unartful use of those few words doesn’t change who I am, what I’ve stood for my entire life, what I stand for today.”___Follow Ken Thomas on Twitter:

  • Description

    The saddle chosen by cyclists looking for a flat model with an open relief zone, has been improved to offer higher performances. We have applied our “New Ergonomy” concept on the Mantra based on finding a perfect balance between support zones and relief zones in all the different situations of pedalling. The central relief zone is long enough to work in all the riding positions, but a structural stability bridge prevents unwanted flex and twist. New is also the dimension of the carbon rail that features a length of 83.5 mm, which makes it one of the longest on the market and allows one of the best back and forth adjustments. The new ergonomy and the new design, together with the smart graphics, make the new Mantra an aggressive saddle, aesthetically perfect in matching with the most technologically advanced frames. And add that is also 15% lighter than the previous model.

    DNA-Carbon Rails

    The crossing X shape knot (Dynamic Node Action) enables to increase the rigidity of the rail and also to reduce the weight, avoiding useless spin and torsion, without compromising the comfort.

    A length greater than the traditional carbon rails you can find on the market, allows one of the best adjustments of the saddle. Superleggera and Carbon FX saddles have this rail.

    Carbon Fiber Reinforced Shell

    Nylon with high properties, enriched with a high proportion of long carbon fibre, in order to reinforce the characteristics of rigidity, stiffness and durability without compromising the weight.

    Biodynamic structure that follows the movements of the pelvis during pedalling, guarantees comfort, reduced weight, lasting resistance and ideal support. The “closed cells” surface ensures water is repelled from the padding.

    Microfeel cover

    Breathable and hard wearing cover. It is lighter than traditional materials and less deformable. Anti-skid effect with an extraordinary grip on the saddle. Biocompatible material.

    New Ergonomy

    The perfect balance between the support and relief zone. The "big hole" helps maintain comfort under pressure and offers day long support and comfort. The central relief zone is long enough to work in all riding positions and the structural stability bridge prevents unwanted flex and twist.

    • Rail: DNA-Carbon, Ø 9.8 x 7mm
    • Shell: Carbon Fibre Reinforced
    • Padding: Biofoam

Pinterest demanded for Android phones and tablet

By Daniel Chubb - Mar 4, 2012

With the popularity of Pinterest increasing the interest in an app for Android phones and tablet is also accelerating, although you can certainly find an application that works with the Pinterest service but none are official. We’ve seen a number of apps make their way onto Google’s marketplace for Android devices, which aim to look like an app wanted by users but not yet available to Android from the official brand.

This has been seen with Temple Run, a game extremely popular on the iPhone and other iOS devices, and many other useful apps found on iOS but not officially released for Android. Don’t believe the hype some journalists put on “copycat” apps, especially when they state most of them are “dangerous” because this is completely untrue. You’ll always find a rough app here and there, but most of the so-called “impostor” apps are just looking to fill a need wanted by users that the official brands are not fulfilling yet.

The media exposure for Pinterest has exploded in 2012 and this is for good reason, which those using the service fully understand the simplicity and how it makes it easy to keep interesting things online “pinned“. The service is by invite only and can be requested by going to their website and entering your email, although you should get an invite within a matter of days, not weeks.

Are you new to Pinterest and not following our Pinterest profile? Those of you using Pinterest we’d love you to like and follow us, which our boards currently include pins on some varied topics. Our Pinterest boards include one for Android, Apple, current and next-gen gaming, autos, infographics, social media, funny text messages, quotes about life, and other tech & gadgets. You can follow all our pins via this page on Pinterest or just select a board for pins on focused topics.

Users have been demanding Pinterest for Android phones in growing numbers – while we’ve seen Pinterest users grow and spend more time using the service every month, an Android app is still yet to be found. You can see the iOS version of Pinterest on iTunes here, which has had nearly 200,000 ratings at 4.5 stars, and shows the popularity on Apple devices. We’ve seen a few negative comments after the 1.4.3 update last month, and some people complain it crashes although we’d love to hear about your experience with the iOS version in the comments below this article.

Android vs. iOS popularity – while we know Apple has certainly taken the industry by storm year-on-year, but there are also an army of Android phones and tablets from many brands, so why are many app developers behind with an Android version? Can it be the process of developing an Android app is not supported as good when compared to iTunes, or is there really a bigger demand on iPhone, iPad, and iPod?

Do you want to see an official Pinterest for Android app, or have you found a really good 3rd party app? There are plenty of 3rd party apps that have received mixed reactions from users, and these include apps like “Pinterest For All“, “Pinscape“, and “Photo To Pinterest“. At the time of writing we’ve already had a number of emails asking when the official Pinterest for Android app is going to release, and there are thousands of forums also asking the same question. It seems the ball is now in the court of Pinterest and their team, although we’ll update you when the app is launched.

We’ve included a video below this article that shows you how to use Pinterest, so if you’re new to the social network have a watch to get a better idea on what to do. Do you have any tips to share with PR readers about Pinterest, if so hit the comments.

Welcome warmer weather! After a long, cold winter, just about everyone I know is hankering to get out and about. If you're yearning for a change of scenery, Lambertville, New Jersey, located on the banks of the Delaware River, is perfect for a weekend get-away.

In addition to being known as one of the smallest cities in the United States, Lambertville was recognized in 2013 by Forbes magazine as one of the "15 prettiest town in America" and in 2014 ranked number five among the "quirkiest" by Travel & Leisure.

Lambertville is a walkable little town, just like New Hope, a popular destination across the bridge in Pennsylvania, but the vibe is a bit different — more relaxed, quieter and more conducive to a lazy stroll.

Melanie Tucker of "Rare Finds Travel" lives in Lambertville and said she was drawn to the area for its diverse mix of residents. "Residents range from blue-collar workers to artisans and professors," said Tucker. One of the first things she recommends is for visitors sign up for the free walking tours conducted by Lambertville Historical Society on the first Sunday of the month from April through November.

"On the tour, visitors will see things like the Cowin stone mansion, built by the mayor of Lambertville and the owner of Stoneworks, who engaged Italian stone makers to hand cut each stone on site. They will also learn that another homeowner owned a spoke factory and he became wealthy due to the Civil War. Lambertville provided many of the spokes that were affixed to the caissons that carried the cannons for the Union Army," said Tucker.

Galleries galore

Famous for an artist colony formed there more than a 100 years ago, Lambertville is known for its selection of art and is home to a plethora of galleries. You can spend hours admiring the many works of art in galleries dotted along the streets of the town. From small galleries like The River Queen on Church Street, to mega-galleries like "Jim's of Lambertville" on Bridge Street, there's something for every taste.

Be sure not to miss A Mano Galleries on North Union Street. Located in an old "5 & Dime" building, the gallery can be mistaken for such. Step inside the dime store doors and you'll find an upscale array of one-of-a-kind, colorfully painted art furniture known as "Sticks," along with a selection of artisan jewelry, lighting, handbags, paintings, sculptures and more.

Overnight lodging

If staying in a hotel rich in history, known for its hospitality and located in the heart of the action is attractive to you, then the Lambertville House Hotel is an excellent choice. Built by Captain John Lambert in 1812, the hotel originally operated as Lambert's Inn, a stagecoach stop that provided lodging to U.S. presidents including Andrew Johnson and Ulysses S. Grant, dignitaries and business leaders traveling the main thoroughfare from New York to Philadelphia.

Described by many as luxurious and comfortable, the historic haven has been awarded the AAA Award of Excellence for the past 14 years. Each room contains a fireplace, robes and jetted tubs. Relaxing on the spacious front porch to watch the world go by is a favorite pastime of guests.

An antiques enclave

For those who have a passion for antiques, Lambertville does not disappoint. The People's Store is located on Union Street in a building that dates back to 1839. There you'll find four floors of antiques from the collections of 45 dealers in an eclectic array of furnishings, art, period clothing, jewelry, silver and more.

Dining to your taste

Finding a place to eat in Lambertville is easy. Choosing one — not so much. A good suggestion to begin your day is Rojo's Roastery, especially if you appreciate a great cup of coffee made from sustainably grown beans and roasted in state-of-the-art equipment. If coffee isn't your thing, you can order chai, or even herbal tea. Grab your libation of choice and sink down into a comfy couch to start the day off right.

For lunch, Lambertville Station is a good choice. There you can order anything from snapper soup to sandwiches, wraps, salads and even duck pot pie and jambalaya

If you're more of the "grab and go" type, visit DiNapoli's on Kline's Court for a choice of sandwiches from Italian hoagies, to meatball subs and their signature Italian Roast Pork.

Craving a sweet afterwards? Pick from among an assortment of artisan truffles, handmade toffee and exotic chocolate bars at the Chocolate Box on North Union.

For dinner, Anton's at the Swan is top on my list. Chef Chris Connors is an expert in the kitchen and changes his menu with the seasons. He'll impress you with fish, beef, pork or chicken. My filet was top notch and sides like garlic potato gratin were delicious. It's a great place for a date, with a romantic, low-lit, elegantly appointed dining room and attentive service.

There's so much more to see and do in Lambertville. For a short, entertaining, laid-back getaway, this pretty, quirky, small town certainly fits the bill.

Brits consider good food ‘essential’ for perfect holiday

A new survey into British travel habits has found that holidaymakers are willing to brush aside nice beaches, glorious weather and luxury hotel in favour of good food.

Travel search site momondo found that dining out was cited most often as a preferred experience for Brits holidaying abroad. When asked which of 12 popular holiday activities they most like to do, ‘eating out at restaurants’ was the top answers.

In fact, almost two thirds (63%) said that good food is an essential part of the perfect holiday. Eating out is also something that holidaymakers enjoy doing alone or with family and friends: 65% said that going to a restaurant with their spouse or family is a preferred activity, but even 19% of solo travellers listed sampling the local cuisine as something they like to do.

Brits’ foodie habits don’t stop there. The results of the survey also suggest that people are more likely to try new food when abroad. More than a quarter (26%) are keen to try unusual dishes, while 45% like to mix local specialities with tried and tested favourites. Of all the travellers’ questioned, just 15% are happy to stick to familiar food and 4% prefer to cook their own.

This appetite for the unfamiliar is exciting but may also be trying on our digestive system, so it’s important that people are covered by adequate travel insurance. Despite being happy to delve into the unknown when on holiday – 85% agreed that they prefer seeing new things when they travel – Brits aren’t quite as adventurous back home.

When given six options and asked what they like most about the UK, just 8% answered food. So, 92% prefer the people, weather, culture, sights or nature. While Brits might not be keen on their own food back home, it is very important when travelling abroad. Around a third of holidaymakers will only choose a hotel if it has a restaurant.

People are also likely to splash out on gastronomic delights while travelling, with just a fifth (21%) preferring to spend less money on food if they needed to cut back. Julie Pedersen of momondo said: “The Brits are culinary curious people - both when it comes to travel destinations, and experiences whilst away. This study reflects how food is the focal point for many of us when we travel.”

ANAHEIM – On a Tuesday night that celebrated Vladimir Guerrero’s return to Angel Stadium, it was some of the relatively newer Angel acquisitions that powered the team to a 6-5 victory over the Texas Rangers in front of 38,514.

Bobby Abreu, acquired as a free agent in 2009, doubled to right on a full-count with the bases loaded to score Jeff Mathis, Erick Aybar and Howie Kendrick to cap a four-run sixth inning. The rally started with a two-out single by May free-agent pickup Kevin Frandsen, who advanced to second on a wild pitch and scored on a Mathis single and brought the Angels (44-35) within 3 1/2 games of the Rangers (46-30) in the American League West standings.

Aybar also scored in the first for the Angels, hustling home from first on a Kendrick single to right – toppling Texas catcher Matt Treanor in the process. Mike Napoli hit his 14th home run of the year in the fourth for the other Angels run.

Centerfielder Torii Hunter, helped save the day in the eighth. Hunter, who joined the Angels in 2008, sprinted from shallow center into deep right-center with one out to track down a likely game-tying double by Julio Borbon. Nelson Cruz had to hustle back to second and while the Rangers loaded the bases, they were unable to score on 2010 free-agent signee Fernando Rodney.

Guerrero sparkled in his return to Orange County, hitting a two-run home run in the seventh to bring the Rangers within 6-5 and hitting a sacrifice fly to score Elvis Andrus in the third. He was struck out in the ninth by 2009 free-agent signee Brian Fuentes, who picked up his 14th save.

Ian Kinsler had a solo homer in the first and Josh Hamilton brought in Michael Young with a bases-loaded groundout in the fifth for the other Rangers runs.

The subject of roster juggling was prompted by Guerrero’s statistically triumphant return to Angel Stadium as an All-Star caliber member of the Texas Rangers. Guerrero was hitting .327 with 15 home runs and 60 RBIs coming in – stats he improved during his 2-for-4, one-home run and three-RBI night – and his presence got Angels manager Mike Scioscia thinking about the task that Angels general manager Tony Reagins is faced with.

Reagins was given a tough call on having to not re-sign Guerrero – who had his worst season since 1997 for the Angels last year – despite five other exemplary seasons with the Angels. And he had to make the same calls with starting pitcher John Lackey and third baseman Chone Figgins.

How do you dye the tips of your hair?

Quick Answer

If you want to dye the tips of your hair yourself, you can do so by sectioning off your hair, applying an at-home treatment and letting it set. If you're not so adventurous, you can visit a professional hairstylist and have the same process performed at a salon.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

  1. Divide hair into sections

    Divide hair into two to four low ponytails, fastening each with an elastic. The thicker your hair, the more ponytails you'll want to have as to not leave out any pieces of hair. To keep dye away from your face, clip up the front section of your hair.

  2. Put on gloves

    Wear latex or rubber gloves to avoid staining your fingers the color of your chosen dye.

  3. Apply dye to ponytails

    One ponytail at a time, start working in the dye from the bottom of your hair. Starting there will make sure the ends are the brightest and most vibrant because the dye will have been soaking there the longest.

  4. Blend dye

    Using a clean hand, grab hair where you want to start the transition from your natural hue to your desired color. Begin twisting that portion of hair with your hands, squeezing and turning it to blend the color. Twist repeatedly over the same spot to create a subtle blend from your natural hair color to the dye. Failing to blend will result in a harsh line between your natural and dyed hair.

  5. Wrap ponytails in tinfoil

    When you're done blending, individually wrap each ponytail in tinfoil. For stronger color, leave the dye in for 45 minutes. If you desire a more subtle effect, leave the dye in for just 10 to 15 minutes.

  6. Wash hair

    After leaving in the dye for the desired amount of time, wash the dye out of your hair until your shower water runs clean.

What causes red spots in my mouth?

Quick Answer

Red spots in the mouth can be caused by canker sores, allergic reactions, vitamin deficiencies, oral trauma, stress or a systemic disease, according to MedicineNet.com. Patients who observe red spots or sores in their mouth should visit a doctor if the spots do not disappear within a few days.

Related Videos

Full Answer

Canker sores are the most common causes of red spots in the mouth. They are ulcerated sores in the mouth caused by exposure to irritating foods, stress or other types of trauma, according to WebMD. Most canker sores disappear on their own.

Vitamin deficiencies can also cause red spots to appear in the mouth. The most likely culprits include deficiencies in B vitamins, zinc and iron.

When a person eats a food to which he or she is allergic, red spots might appear on the tongue or roof of the mouth. Allergies can also create redness or swelling on the lips or around the mouth.

Stress is also a common reason for the development of red spots in the mouth. Experts do not fully understand the cause, but stress can present itself in physical symptoms as well as psychological ones.

In some cases, red spots are due to oral trauma. If the patient bites the inside of his or her cheek, for example, a red area might appear. The same is true if the surface of a tooth has become rough or if the patient wears a mouth appliance, such as braces.

What are some historical facts about Mancala?

Quick Answer

The game of Mancala is believed to have originated in Africa. The earliest games were played by scooping holes from the earth and using pebbles or seashells as the moving pieces. Over time, game boards were created, and made of wood, clay or gold.

Continue Reading

Full Answer

The term "Mancala" is Arabic, meaning "game of transferring." It is the only ancient game with an Arabic name that is still in existence, which hints that the game either originated in Arabia or existed around that part of the world for thousands of years. Since the creation of the game, several versions have developed over time.

Countries with diverse versions of the game include India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. There are many variations of game play, which has resulted in several different names due to its popularity among African tribes. Examples of African names include Wari, Ware, Walle, Awari, Aware and Awaoley. Wari is considered the most popular form of Mancala worldwide.

Though many cultures play this game for recreational purposes, some regions associate Mancala with religion. In the West Indies, for example, the game was played in a house while mourning a death, since it was thought that the spirit of the deceased found amusement in watching until the burial of his body.

41 Florida State University Law Review 173 (2013)

This Essay — written for Florida State University’s symposium on the 100th anniversary of the U.S. federal income tax — evaluates how the literature on tax salience should be advanced in order for it to better guide tax policy over the coming decades. The literature on tax salience analyzes how taxpayers account for the costs imposed by taxation when the taxpayers make decisions or judgments, both in the taxpayers’ roles as voters and as market participants. This Essay evaluates both possible operative mechanisms that might underlie observed tax salience effects and limiting factors that might prevent tax salience effects from materializing in real-world policy contexts.

Q+A-Will Moscow talks unleash carbon trade war against EU?

BRUSSELS, Feb 20 (Reuters) - A group of nations opposed to an EU law forcing all airlines to pay for their emissions meets in Moscow this week to debate possible retaliation, raising the risk of a trade war.

From Jan. 1, all airlines using EU airports are obliged to acquire carbon allowances under the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). The law has triggered international protest from nations including the United States, China and India.

The following looks at what the meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday could decide and what might happen next.

The Moscow agenda is expected to debate a range of possible counter-measures, ranging from a formal dispute at the U.N.’s International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to blocking legislation banning airlines from participating in the EU’s ETS to retaliatory fees for EU flights.

Other measures mooted in a draft discussion paper seen by Reuters include halting international aviation talks or other trade discussions between EU and non-EU states and denying EU states any requested new routes.

The agenda will also discuss a letter that each nation attending the Moscow meeting could send to the EU and its member states.

The draft letter says the EU scheme “totally negates the principle of international cooperation”.

It also says nations will refuse to take part in it, which could “impact other areas of cooperation with the EU”.

EU and Russian sources, as well as analysts have said no-one wants a trade war involving the EU, the world’s largest single market, and there is still time for negotiation, although they do not entirely rule out agreement on some of the counter-measures.

The host of this week’s meeting, Russia, has repeatedly said the best outcome would be for a decision to be taken at ICAO, rather than at the Moscow talks.

“Our position was stated after meeting in Brussels. We said that a decision should be taken at the level of ICAO and our position has not changed,” a Transport Ministry spokesman said on Monday. He was referring to talks between Russia and the EU earlier this year.

Taking the issue to ICAO could mean a formal dispute, but analysts and sources again thought the Moscow meeting would hold back from that extremely lengthy procedure.

“In the end, no country is really looking for a trade row in current insecure economic times. So, in that sense, everyone expects harsh language from the coalition of the unwilling, but no real trade threats,” said Dutch Green member of the European Parliament Bas Eickhout, who has followed the dossier closely.

The Moscow talks bring together 26 nations opposed to the EU scheme and dubbed “the coalition of the unwilling”.

They are Argentina, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chile, China, Colombia, Cuba, Egypt, India, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Nigeria, Paraguay, Peru, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, Swaziland, Uganda, the United States and the United Arab Emirates.

The 26 have held previous meetings and in New Delhi last year issued a joint declaration opposing the EU’s plan.

A meeting of ICAO in Canada in November adopted a working paper from the 26 objectors urging the EU not to include non-EU carriers in its plan.

All parties have said the best solution would be that ICAO come up with its own scheme to curb airline emissions.

The escalation of tension has accelerated efforts, which so far have dragged for well over a decade.

The EU said it only opted to include all airlines in its scheme because of ICAO’s failure to deliver.

Its law could be modified should ICAO find a solution, but the bloc cannot simply tear up law approved by all 27 of its member states and endorsed in its highest court in December last year.

It has some flexibility over implementation, however. It has always said it would consider exempting nations provided they have “equivalent measures” in place to reduce airline carbon emissions. It has never specified what these might be.

Under the EU’s scheme, 85 percent of allowances will initially be handed out for free and in any case, no airline will face a bill until next year, leaving time for negotiation.

“The question to the Moscow meeting is will these countries instead of telling us what we should not do come up with a constructive and concrete alternative?” Isaac Valero-Ladron, EU spokesman for climate action, said on Monday.

“Will these countries propose a work plan and time line? When, how and what are they going to deliver?”

The European Union’s ETS in December dived to record lows below 7 euros under the pressure of oversupply and economic recession. It has recovered to around 9 euros, but is still far below the levels needed to spur low-carbon investment.

Airlines buying emissions could help boost the scheme.

The sector’s net demand for carbon permits could reach up to 700 million by 2020, analysts at Thomson Reuters Point Carbon have said, making it the second biggest buyer of carbon units behind the electricity sector.

Haitian activists call on United States to halt deportations

MIAMI (Reuters) - Wildrick Guerrier, a refugee from the devastation of the 2010 Haitian earthquake, died in a Haitian jail in 2011, 10 days after the United States revoked his temporary permission to stay in the country and deported him and 26 other men.

A report released on Thursday from law centers at the universities of Miami and Chicago describes how Guerrier, 34, died of cholera in the Haitian jail after being exposed to blood, feces and vomit. In the report, legal scholars and Haitian activists called on the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to stop its policy of deporting Haitians convicted of two misdemeanors or a felony.

The report said that at least 1,500 men and women have been deported in the last five years. Some had their status revoked after relatively minor offenses such as failing to return a rental car in time and giving a police officer false information, said Geoffrey Louden of the Human Rights Clinic at the University of Miami School of Law.

While some deportees have been convicted of violent crimes, Louden said, “Many are longtime, lawful permanent residents with deep family ties who find themselves strangers in a strange land.”

Guerrier was deported after being arrested for illegal possession of a firearm and battery of a law enforcement officer.

Thursday’s report also asked the United States to extend temporary protective status for Haitians beyond 2016, when it is set to expire.

The U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement office said in a statement that officials have been working with the Haitian government and other partners “to resume removals in as safe, humane, and minimally disruptive manner as possible.”

It added that it was also working “to develop a comprehensive reintegration strategy that encompasses a range of services for returned Haitians to smooth their transition into Haitian society, including healthcare assistance and skills training.”

Haiti is still recovering five years after a 7.0-magnitude earthquake leveled large swaths of the capital Port-au-Prince. The cholera outbreak that began shortly after plunged the country into further misery.

More recently it has been inundated with protests over rising gasoline prices and political roadblocks under President Michel Martelly’s government.

Activists said deportations weigh on families, forcing teenagers and young adults who should be in school to become breadwinners and caregivers.

“We’re trying to build the foundation of a community that we can be optimistic about,” said prominent Haitian-American author Edwidge Danticat. “These deportations are making that impossible.”

Question 1 would expand firearm background checks

A lot of emotions — and money — have poured into the campaigns for and against Question 1, a Nevada ballot initiative proposing to expand firearm background checks to private-party sales and transfers.

The law would require background checks for all guns sold among friends, online and at gun shows. Federal law requires background checks meant to keep guns away from felons, domestic abusers and the mentally ill on all sales by licensed dealers.

Sellers that break the law would face a gross misdemeanor charge punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for up to a year and/or a fine up to $2,000. Subsequent infractions would result in a felony charge that carries a sentence between one and five years in a state prison and a fine up to $10,000.

A poll of 800 likely voters commissioned by the Las Vegas Review-Journal suggested the measure will pass.

Fifty-eight percent of respondents supported the measure, 32 percent were opposed, and 10 percent indicated they didn’t know or didn’t answer. Bendixen & Amandi International conducted the poll Sept. 27-29 in English and Spanish. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

The voter initiative is the culmination of three years of work by gun control activists.

In 2013, then-state Sen. Justin Jones, D-Las Vegas, sponsored a background checks measure that passed in both legislative chambers, which were then controlled by Democrats. The bill was vetoed by Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval, who called it an erosion of Nevadans’ Second Amendment rights.

Nevadans for Background Checks emerged shortly afterward and gathered 166,779 signatures to send the measure back to the Legislature.

National gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety spent nearly $2 million on Nevadans for Background Checks’ formation and petition drive in fall 2014.

When the Republican-led Legislature failed to take up the measure during the 2015 session, the initiative was passed on for voters to decide.

Gun control activists have been working to pass the measure for three years and have racked up numerous endorsements and campaign contributions along the way.

Question 1 has earned the endorsement of the Nevada Association of Public Safety Officers, Las Vegas Fraternal Order of Police, Nevada Chapter of the National Latino Peace Officers Association, the Latin Chamber of Commerce, Las Vegas Asian Chamber of Commerce, Nevada State AFL-CIO, Culinary Local 226, Nevada State Education Association, Nevada Parent Teacher Association, and the Nevada Network Against Domestic Violence.

Nevadans for Background Checks and Everytown for Gun Safety maintain that states that go beyond federal law have seen marked reductions in gun violence.

Multiple states, including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, New York, Rhode Island and Washington, as well as the District of Columbia, require background checks for all sales and transfers of firearms.

Gun rights activists, however, say expanded background checks will only inconvenience law-abiding citizens. At worst, the law could criminalize the common habits of many gun owners, the National Rifle Association has said.

The campaign against the initiative has said the law is poorly worded and unclear. It doesn’t define what constitutes an established shooting range or what the “reasonable fee” for the new class of background checks would be.

The NRA has said the law would require background checks even for temporary transfers.

The law includes exceptions for firearms instructors and immediate family members but could make it illegal for soldiers to have friends hold on to their guns while they are deployed.
