A belt is a flexible band, typically made of leather or heavy cloth, and worn around the waist. A belt supports trousers or other articles of clothing, and it serves for style and decoration.

bc t-shirtsBelts have been documented both for male and female clothing since the Bronze Age. Both sexes used them off and on, depending on the current fashion, but it was a rarity in female fashion with the exception of the early Middle Ages, late 17th century Mantua, and skirt/blouse combinations between 1900 and 1910. Art Nouveau belt buckles are now collector’s items.

In the militarain periods, particularly the later half of the 19th century and up until the first World War, the belt was strictly a decorative part of the uniform, particularly among officers. In the armed forces of Prussia, Crimea, and other Eastern European nations, it was common for officers to wear extremely tight, wide belts around the waist, on the outside of the uniform. These tightly cinched belts served to draw in the waist and give the wearer a trim physique, emphasizing wide shoulders and a pouting chest. Often the belt served only to emphasize a waist made small by a corset worn under the uniform, a practice which was common especially during the Crimean Wars and was often noted by soldiers from the Western front. Political cartoonists of the day often portrayed the tight waist-cinching of soldiers to comedic effect, and some cartoons survive showing officers being corsetted by their inferiors, a practice which surely was uncomfortable but deemed to be necessary and imposing.

In modern times, men started wearing belts in the 1920s, as trouser waists fell to a lower, natural line. Before the 1920s, belts served mostly a decorative purpose, and were associated with the military. Today it is common for men to wear a belt with their trousers; women tend to wear them for more decorative functions.

Since the mid 1990s, the practice of sagging has been popular at times among young men and boys. This fashion trend consists of wearing the trousers very low on the hips, often exposing the underwear and buttocks of the wearer. This urban style, which has roots tracing to prison gangs[1]and the prohibition of belts in prison, due to their use as weapons and devices for suicide) has remained popular into the 21st century, particularly among pubescent boys. A belt may or may not be worn with this style – if a belt is used, it is cinched tightly at the mid-buttock region, with the effect that the trousers of the wearer are being held up by genitalia underneath. Many public schools now enforce belt-wearing, often only for the male population, and requiring the belts to be worn tightly at waist level with a tucked-in shirt.

Mountain bikers need only two things when they go biking – a good bike and a good helmet. But there’s dozens of other pieces of equipment which riders should stock up on to increase their enjoyment of the sport.

When you’re out on your mountain bike, the only things you really need to have, apart from a bike suited to the terrain over which you’re writing, are a helmet and goggles. Everything else can really be considered accessories, although they’re the type of accessories that it also important to have.

But let’s consider mountain biking equipment from the ground up.

Bike storage
Where do you keep your bike when you’re not riding? If you live in an apartment where space is at a premium, it’s always best to hang the bike in a hall, either on the wall or suspended from the ceiling. (Anyone remember seeing that bike hanging from the ceiling in the classic Seinfeld television series?)

If you’re fortunate to have a garage, there’s plenty of places to store a bike, but since chances are you don’t have a kick stand on your mountain bike, the best thing to do is have a bike stand in which to place it. Placing bikes in a stand also simply makes the garage look neater.

Bike tools
Do you want to do your own bike repairs? If so, it’ll make it a lot easier on you if you not only have the small tools made for the purpose, but also a large tool – to be exact a truing stand, which will help you true your wheels on occasion.

When you’re out on the trail you may have a flat, so of course you’ll want to bring a bundle of tools with you. But it’s not enough for you to have the tools – you also have to know how to use them. So take some time after purchasing those tools to work with them and familiarize yourself with the methods necessary to fix the various things that can go wrong with your bike.

Bike accessories
What kinds of accessories can you get on your bike? There’s such a thing as rear view mirrors, although these are more popular among road cyclists than mountain bikers. The same goes for horns or bells to let people know you’re behind them. Also available are bike lights, powerful ones for use when you want to tear down the trail at night.

Bike clothes
Road cyclists normally wear tight fitting cycle shorts and a tight fitting jersey, whereas mountain bike riders do have a tendency to look a bit baggy. The more clothes a mountain biker wears the better, actually, as they can serve to cushion falls. Rather than depending on those clothes, however, you can also stock up on knee, shin, leg, arm, and elbow guards. Gloves are also an essential, as they’ll protect the hands from road burn, not to mention increasing the grip on the bike.

Bike security
We live in a world where unattended bikes will quite often disappear. That may not be much of a bother if its only a $20 “beater”, but when it’s a mountain bike worth hundreds of dollars the loss stings a bit more. Sturdy bike locks are a must.

It’s possible to put transponders into bikes so that they can be tracked if they’re stolen. Police use this with “bait” bikes. However, various companies are working towards making GPS tracking devices to put on real bikes. They’ll probably be on the market in a few years.

Today I am still perplexed at how easily real estate flippers got away with false appraisals on overvalued land.

Step1
The banks loaned too much based on the true value of the underlying collateral and the seller’s walked with the excess cash (often repeating the process as buyer then seller in the next cycle).

Step2
In the simple case the lending bank has a strong interest in checking the accuracy of the appraisal (or hiring its own reliable appraiser) before loaning money on a land purchase and taking back a mortgage. Some argue that structured finance dilutes everyone’s incentive to check for fraud. The argument notes that the bank sells the paper to a special purpose vehicle (SPV) and the SPV sell securities to investors.

Step3
The risk of fraud is borne by the investors who do not or cannot check on the validity of any appraisals. The investors rely on rating agencies to rate the default risk and the rating agencies are operating under conflicts because they are paid by the SPV and get consulting fees from the SPV. The bank (and the originating broker) and the SPV no longer care because they take fees and pass on the risk.

Step4
The investors end up holding the bag. The argument seems overly simplistic. Most SPVs sell tranches and the lowest tranche, the so-called equity tranche, is not rated and very risky. Those who buy the equity, usually hedge funds, have an increased risk of loan defaults and should therefore have an increased incentive to monitor the quality of the loans.

Indeed, one could argue that the equity buyers and a stronger incentive than a bank that does not sell the paper to check on the default risk in the loans because the hedge funds took more risk with each default. There were long time rumors in the market of real estate flipping. Why did the hedge funds not check out the rumors, or at least price the equity to account for the rumors? Moreover, many of the same banks that passed on the risk to the SPV then bought SPV securities in their own hedge funds (and those funds are now in distress). Why did the banks not have the proper incentive, when purchasing back the paper, to make sure the paper that went to the SPVs they invested in was sound? In short, I continue to be baffled by stories of easy money (made even by gangs of thugs) on real estate flipping that overvalued land in the appraisals.

If biking is your passion then you must be one of those individuals who are fussy about their machines. Chances are that the convenience and the comfort levels of your bike matter a lot to you. If this be so, then go in for the folding bikes. And in particular, the Dahon folding bikes should be your choice.

What Are Folding Bikes?

Folding bikes are bicycles with a lot of hinges and joints that can be folded up to trim the size of the bike. And with the bicycle frame brought down to a manageably wieldy size, you can carry it around in public transport; have it stashed away in your car or in some corner of your apartment. Folding bikes also do not require much of a parking space, making it easy for you to travel with it.

Folding Bikes From Dahon

Dahon is a name to reckon within the bicycle manufacturing world and the leader in the production of folding bikes. In fact, this Los Angeles-based company is a trailblazer of sorts when it comes to folding bike technology.

The company has perfected the technology and the fact that it has till now sold more than 2 million of these bikes in more than 30 countries is ample testimony to its expertise.

Dahon is never short on ideas when it comes to folding bikes. It has several innovative and groundbreaking bike models to its credit, all hugely popular amongst the biking fanatics.

For instance, you have the Allegro make that has its frame modeled upon the famous Ritchey Logic frame. And you can be rest assured about the quality of the machine because the frame is hand-welded from the Italian-made Ritchey WCS steel tubing. However, the prime allure of this Dahon make is the fact that it can be bundled into a small suitcase in only about 10-15 minutes.

The very popular Ciao P5 folding bike from Dahon is a bikers delight, and especially the rookies, people with back or leg injuries and women wearing flowing dresses.

This stylish bike comes with an assortment of bells and whistles like the Hella lighting system to help you in the dark; SKS mud guards to ensure that the ride does not turn out to be too muddy and also an ArcLight rack to hold your paraphernalia.

Dahon has broken all myths regarding the folding bikes being fragile with its Fuego model. When folded, this pint-sized dynamite is basically a full suspension MTB designed to suit the demands of pro-standard Marathon/Enduro riding. This is a robust bike featuring a double-butted 7005 aluminum frame that also incorporates 4-4.5 inches of front and rear travel suspension, the Patented Interlock Joint Technology and the legendary Joe Murray LSR linkage technology and Threshold Linkage Design. Furthermore, the whole ensemble, elaborate though it may sound, can be packed into an airline suitcase.

Why Go In For A Dahon Folding Bike?

Amidst the plethora of brands jostling for your attention in the market, Dahon has been pretty quick to win the favors from the bikers. And for all the right reasons too.

A constant strive towards perfection and development has meant that Dahon goes in for an extensive R&D regime. It is thus no wonder that the Dahon folding bike comes in so many different forms and designs, all of them rivaling and most times surpassing the best in the market.

Still harping on this issue, Dahon is a trendsetter of sorts, with more than 95% of the currently prevalent folding bike technology being along the lines of the Dahon technology.

Quality is the hallmark of all Dahon bikes. This is because the bike parts are obtained from the very best manufacturers all around the world.

Go in for a Dahon folding bike. You can bask in the thought that you will be taking convenience and comfort along with you in your ride.

I can think of mad blue ni66as (crips, folk, surside), but when I think of red the bloodsz the only thing that comes to my mind. What other gangs are out there that associate with the color red?

KKK (rednecks)

As a former hiker/backpacker, new mountain biker, I’m used to greeting every hiker I see in the woods, more so in the wilderness than the nearby county parks, but remember being ignored by mountain bikers and now that I’m doing that I’d just prefer to ignore everyone. Is that okay, or is it only if you’re rude, only if you’re jamming to headphones (which I don’t own), or going really fast?

There is no official rule for greeting, but a warning is good to let people know you are coming up on them and passing. If you are meet someone, say a quick "Hi" or "How’s it going?" You don’t have to be social, but mountain biking is a social activity and you may meet up with some future riding buddies.

Always ask if someone is okay if they have wrecked or look to have mechanical problems. I carry a pretty strong toolbox on my bike and always willing to offer a hand. You never know when you may be on the receiving end!

And don’t wear headphones or buds when you ride. It takes away from the whole experience when out there in the woods and you may not hear a potential hazard (another biker, falling tree, or bear). The sound of the chain, your breathing, crunching of sticks on the path, running water, running dear, etc. add the the riding experience of the ride.

EZE IGBO OF IRELAND: A BREACH OF ETIQUETTE By Chris Okafor

The delay in publication of this article barely five months after the shamble coronation of Mr. Mathew Emeka Ezeani as the King of Igbo in Ireland was to give much room for reactions which has been consistent in the media over past few months.

Emeka Ezeani has continuously insisted that he have the support of his people to be crowned the Eze Igbo of Ireland which chronicled the various interviews I had with prominent Igbo men and women here in West of Ireland. The results of that interview demonstrated, to a large extent, a proportionate disapproval of anyone parading and masquerading himself as the King of Igbo in Ireland. However, I could not agree more than one Mr. Obomas assertion in Metro Earean that Igbos has no King and that anybody placing himself as one is doing so without the mandate of real igbos.

While the persistent controversies surrounding the coronation in Dublin continued, a number of unanswered questions keep cropping up my mind: How did it all started? Were the igbos in Ireland really insecure that it is the like of Emeka Ezeani and Steve Orji would give them the required security? What constitutional right does Joe Achuzia as secretary-general of Ohaneze possessed to coronate anybody as a King? Does the igbos have a similar King in England, United States or elsewhere? Do they have the Oba, Awujale or the Oni of Yorubas in Ireland, England or United states? Is there anything like the Emirs of Hausas anywhere in Diasporas? Is there any correlation between Eze in Igbo language to that of Oba, Alafin or Awujale in Yoruba race or that of Emir in Hausa? Is the King in Igboland by hereditary or by election? I am sure that all the parties involved in these scuffle would answer these questions unless they are only out to fool themselves.

That scuffle for meaningless Eze Igbo in Ireland represent a true reflection and extension of what is akin to the igbos in Nigeria today which can only explain why an Igboman can never be the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. You know why? The trust and unity are not there. You need to be trusted in order for somebody to trust you.

By writing this article, I know that some sycophants and hypocrites would respond negatively as the truth is always bitter, until the Igbos put their axe together and stop chasing shadows; they will continue to remain where they are.  Politically, everybody is shouting marginalization yet the igbos are busy fabricating and conferring non existent title to themselves. Mr A sees Mr B as inferior and would stop at nothing to thwart his bid to exalted post in Nigeria. An average igboman would rather prefer to play second fiddle rather than see his own brother on the throne.

The theatrical manners under which the said coronation was carried was indeed a huge and significant mockery to all Igbo nation which further portrays the total lack of respect for traditional institutions and values. It is a comic that represent Nigeria Movies Industry continuous exposure on how the title of Igwe or Eze could be gotten cheaply in Igboland.

It is, indeed, true that Igbo has no King (igbo enwe Eze). I grew up in Ogwashi-Uku in the 70s and 80s and even before and after the arrival of Police and to these days, our monarch and traditional ruler remains respected and that respect is total. The same applied to the Benin, the Yorubas, the Hausas race and all the ethnic groups in Nigeria. It is perhaps only in Igboland that someone could easily and without justifiable reasons unseat or overthrow the Igwe or the Eze of a particular community or possibly fashion his own Eze.  I want to go home and pay some homage to my King and if possible sit with him and discuss some viable ways that I can contribute to the development of my town not the opposite.

Most associations in Ireland started as far back as 2005 when the Irish government extended their unequivocal magnanimity to give residential permits to most migrants prior to the parentage of Irish Born Child. Majorities of these ethnic groups involved in these meetings have one formidable aims and objectives: to know one another and to promote and project any matter affecting them in a very good light. Depending on the size of the said ethnic group, majority of which have branches in some of the 26 counties in Republic of Ireland. In most cases, they organize themselves and have an overall President of that association despite the President that must have existed in various cities or counties.  They have no single need to arrogate or derogate the overall sacred title of their ethnicity back home in Nigeria.

The monopolistic involvement of the almighty Ohaneze Ndigbo is beyond comprehension. Does the general secretary of Aniferefe or Arewa have the moral or the constitutional right to crown someone abroad or even in Nigeria as an Emir or Oba, Oni or Awujale? And by the way, who are the Ohanezes?

They are regarded generally as a child of circumstance, the socio-cultural organisation began to be seen by Igbo people as a veritable platform for common position and common action. Ohaneze became, as it were, a rallying point for the protection and promotion of certain core values which Igbo people hold dearly: respect for truth, respect for culture and standards and the preservation of all of this. This, again, is not entirely true. Comrade Uchenna Madu, Director of Information, MASSOB has this to say about Ohanaeze:“ Who are the Ohanaeze people and what do they stand for? Do you mean those people that hold meetings of Ndiigbo and speak English language all the way? Is it the Ohanaeze that some of the leaders go to look for contract in Aso Rock? Is it the Ohanaeze that cannot have one voice and speak for Ndiigbo? When they hold meetings, some of them would go to Aso Rock to tell them all that happened? When the North are together fighting for the Hausa-Fulani, the Yoruba and the Niger Delta are gaining political mileage and winning all the amenities for their people, our own Ohanaeze would keep mum and watch the emperors in Aso Rock infiltrate their ranks, create disunity and sentence servitudes.

This is the Ohaneze Ndigbo and so one can see from above definition that it therefore became obvious from their self serving activities that some of the mischief makers who cannot go to Abuja to secure contract always found haven to come to Ireland to cause confusion like coronation.

Ohaneze cannot be compared to Arewa Consultative Forum or Yoruba Aniferefe. These groups are socio-cutural groups in Nigeria, they disagree to agree and at all point in time, they have without doubt, presented a common front to the benefit of their people.

The Lagos State government last week, apparently disturbed by people claiming to be Eze Igbo (King of Igbo) has placed an indefinite ban on anybody parading himself as the king of Igbos in the state. Over the years, its proliferation in Lagos became a controversial issue in which more than one person laid claim to the title in the same local government.

In some parts of the state, for instance in Mushin area of Lagos, about three people claimed to be the Eze-Ndigbo. Likewise in Ajeromi-Ifelodun Local Government, the struggle is on for the position between two people

The South-East council of traditional rulers termed the Eze-Ndigbo phenomenon which is being struggled for, as a corruption of a monarchical system of the Ezeship in parts of Igboland and an abuse of culture and traditions.

There are similarities between Eze Ndi Igbo in all part of Nigeria and that of Ireland. The people who got less than €1.00 cap that one can easily buy in the street of Lagos, place it on their heads and lay claim to be the King of Igbo are self-centre individuals that are only interested in using the title for their selfish end. This can explain why the Lagos State government placed a ban on it as they do not truly represent the interest of the igbos.

In contrast, I think I am beginning to get sick of certain phrase which is continuously being used in Nigerian media. The same has surfaced in Ireland in case of the struggle for Eze Igbo of Ireland between Emeka Ezeani, Steve Orji and their gangs. To be honest, I don`t understand who is a successful lawyer and who is a successful businessman and by the way, is there any criteria to measure one success in particular profession? There is a huge different between a successful man in Nigeria and in Ireland.  Chief Gani  Fawehimi is an erudite and successful lawyer. Beyond endless and celebrated cases he has won in Nigeria federation, he publishes weekly law reports, the same applied to the late legal luminary, F.R.A Williams. Festus Keyamo is young dynamic lawyer whose rising profile in law continues to soar in Nigeria today: he doesn`t need to brag about it.

In Nigeria, arm robbers, drug peddlers, fraudsters, pimps and prostitutes and ritual killers are all classified as businessmen and women and like a reoccurring decimal, the media continue to refer them as businessmen and women even when their real profession is obvious. This is sentimental and praise singer sort of journalism. Should we have something like a successful fraudster or successful ritual killer rather than bending and twisting what one is known for? When you are engaged in one of the above nefarious activities in Nigeria and succeed, you automatically become successful, wherever you go, the crowd would follow, when you cough, about 20 people would answer you; Sir and even when you appeared in a party invited or not, everybody would bow and prostrate for you. The houses or cars you have is bought through your ill gotten wealth as there is no finance or hire purchase facilities in Nigeria.

Compare to non nationals or Nigerians in Ireland, the moment the council gave you an affordable house or you managed  to save €15,000 to acquire property through mortgage which is extended to 35yrs, your next bus stop is a car shop; you pick a car made in 2009 and extend the finance to the next 6yrs, then you have finally arrived. For one, if I am involve in legitimate or illegitimate business in Ireland and have the gut to raise between €350,000 to €400,000 cash to pay for particular property or alternatively raised €30,000 to buy a car cash, I will, without doubt leave myself wide open to series of investigation by the authority on where I got the money from.This is the way it works here.

I enjoyed reading Nigeria papers in Ireland but I think that this successful this and successful that would have to stop. According to one of my friends, if you have money; na for your pocket.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a navigational system consisting of a number of satellites that enables anyone to know their position on Earth. It works regardless of the weather, day or night, using radio signals that bounce between the receiver on Earth and the satellite in space. It is the only fully functional navigation system that can be used anywhere in the world.

Electronics in general has become smaller and smaller, and GPS technology is no exception. Today, you can find many GPS devices which you can hold and operate in the palm of your hand. Most of these handheld devices are designed to be used outdoors such as when you are traveling, hiking or skiing. The GPS unit can not only provide navigational details such as where you are and how to get to where you want to go, but other details such as local and topographic details. Some even provide details on the weather forecast.

Corresponding to the decrease in size has been the decrease in cost. You can find a good quality handheld GPS system at a very affordable price. One small issue with many handheld GPS is the size of their memory due to the need for them to be compact. By spending a little extra, you can usually get a unit which has up to 16MB of memory, and these types are typically more powerful with extra features.

Bikers, hikers, skiers and travelers use handheld GPS units in their activities and there are many devices specifically designed for particular outdoor activities such as biking, golf and hiking. Handheld units are usually very easy to use and have displays that are simple to read. You can even find some GPS units that are voice enabled.

The many different handheld GPS gadgets that on the market today can make it difficult to choose one. Rest assured there are many that will meet your needs. For example, the Garmin StreetPilot 7500 GPS Portable has a 7 inch screen and a wireless remote. It also features maps of US and Canada included, built in antennae, WASS enabled and a MP3 player so you listen to music on the boring parts of your trip.

A palm sized GPS unit is the Garmin eTrex Handheld GPS. The buttons on this gadget are all on the one side to enable you to use it with just one hand and is specifically manufactured to meet the needs of hunters, climbers, hikers and bikers. The software can be updated for free. Another Garmin is the Garmin GPS III Plus which has great reception even in the densest of areas.

A popular Magellan GPS is the Road Mate 2000. Portable, affordable and powerful, it is extremely easy to read the screen with anti-glare and bright features. It also has a battery with a long life.

Buying a handheld unit is very easy. There are many listed in online stores or at your local electronic store. Make sure you do your home work and buy a well know brand that is known for its quality. It is also a good idea to test drive the GPS unit to ensure that you find it easy to use.

You’ve heard that opposites attract. You’ve probably also heard that like attracts like. So which one is it? It can’t be both. Can it? Actually it is both. The reason why is because the concept of opposites is an illusion.

You have probably heard it many times before. You’ve heard the stories of people who had arguments or even physical altercations when they first met. Funny enough and often enough; these people then end up as close friends. Some people may call this opposites attracting. On the surface it would seem that way.

Why does this happen? These people are very much alike. This is the reason they had an initial conflict and it is the reason why they would become close as friends. Paradoxes such as this often arise when looking at topics of great depth.

Here is an excerpt from my book, What Is Really Good? on the subject: <blockquote><em><em>The DNA for all humans is over 99% identical. It is the negligible difference; the remaining less than 1%; that gives us the infinite differences among us.

It’s kind of like the snowflakes of a blizzard. There are countless trillions of them and yet every one of them is different. They are all made of the same stuff; the same composition; and the one piece of content they differ on gives us the same overwhelming ratio of similarities to differences.

Think about how much more similar opposing forces are to each other than different. EX: Police and violent criminals, armies of opposing nations, gang bangers from opposing gangs, social and political activists of opposing sides on an issue, opposing sides in any contest (sports, academics, business, social, intellectual, etc.); basically any and every situation of conflict imaginable. The only difference in these mostly similar and opposing forces is the piece of content they differ on. This piece of content is which side of the whole they are identified with; which polarity of the situation they are aligned with; which relative opposite they would like to oppose. For the most part, besides this factor, the opposing sides are overwhelmingly similar. </em></em>

</blockquote>
The illusion of opposites is simply an extreme in the overall illusion of duality. There can be no object with out a subject. Funny enough; the extreme nature of an opposite, points more to the similarity the two things have.

The nature of duality is that there can be no negative without a positive; there can be no left without a right; there can be no up without a down, etc. Since one can not possibly exist without the other, it stands to reason that they are one in the same.
They are not separate from each other.
They are not a “they”. They are an “it”.
What is “it”?
“It” <strong><em>is</em></strong>.

To explore this and other topics of depth, read the book <a href=”http://whatisreallygood.com/thebook.html”>What Is Really Good?</a>

Riya Sen when shooting in Guwahati for a show had a real death experience in an accident on the sets of Shaadi No.1.

The team was shooting in France where Riya’s scene required some hooligan French bikers to circle around and eve tease her. After the shot, the actress who was dressed in a backless walked over to the monitor to watch her take. At this point, according to Riya, one of the bikers who was acting fresh with her started riding in her direction while performing a stunt. But for a second the man lost control and rammed into the petite actress. Luckily for Riya, her impulse was quick enough and she turned her face away to avoid injuring it. Though, the jolt from the bike was hard enough to render her unconscious and she fell to the ground. She was immediately rushed to a government hospital where she woke up with a throbbing headache and a bruised back.

The funny thing is that Riya recalls that three cute guys who were supposedly hitting on her took her to the hospital. One wonders what happened to the cast and crew of the film who were on the sets when the accident happened.

The bottom line though, is that someone did help and the brain scan Riya had to undergo showed no serious injuries. What was injured however is the camera of one of the men who stood around capturing the incident on video. He lost his grip and his roll made an exit. Later, Riya managed to get hold of a copy of the video. This will ensure that she won’t forget the near death incident for at least another few years.

And for those people who think that Riya is a softie were absolutely wrong. Though her blood pressure had dropped the tough girl managed to go back to the sets and shoot her introductory scene.
