[edit] Met-enkephalin
Met-enkephalin is an endogenous opioid receptor agonist produced by the adrenal gland which probably secretes it in response to stress. It was discovered, along with leu-enkephalin, from brain extracts in 1974 by groups in England and Sweden. It is believed that it acts on both mu and kappa opioid receptors in the CNS. It is also believed that the enkephalins act very similar to morphine but have more potent effects.

[edit] Indian Healthcare - Fortis
Fortis Healthcare was established in 1996 by the promoters of Ranbaxy Laboratories, among the world's top 10 generic companies, also India's largest pharma company. Founded by the late Dr. Parvinder Singh, the architect of Ranbaxy's growth, Fortis is driven by the founder's vision of "creating a world-class integrated healthcare delivery system in India, entailing the finest medical skills combined with compassionate patient care".
Fortis hospitals are benchmarked to International standards - achieving quality through the relentless adherence to the protocols observed in some of the world's leading hospitals.
Our founder envisioned a world-class healthcare delivery system 'as a larger-than-life concept. A privilege for the many, rather than the preserve of a few'.
To achieve this goal, Fortis has initiated several outreach initiatives.
Top Fortis specialists hold outstation OPDs deep in the North Indian heartland. Already over 50 towns in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jammu & Kashmir have been covered.
Free health camps and clinics in outlying towns are part of the effort to extend the benefits of specialist treatment to the masses.
The 'Friends of Fortis' initiative is redefining the doctor-patient relationship. Fortis surgeons visit previously operated patients in far-flung towns to offer valuable follow-up advice at relaxed social get-togethers.
An ambitious Tele-medicine venture is establishing connectivity with community doctors across North India. It forms a vital bridge, enabling access, to the expert knowledge of our specialists at our Centres of Excellence. The Fortis Foundation aims to set up a corpus of funds that will enable critically ill patients from the deprived segments of society to access world-class medical care.
Our compassionate care springs from the heart and knows no boundaries.

[edit] An Essay on Hypocrisy
An Essay on Hypocrisy By Timothy McVeigh
The administration has said that Iraq has no right to stockpile chemical or biological weapons ("weapons of mass destruction") -- mainly because they have used them in the past.
Well, if that's the standard by which these matters are decided, then the U.S. is the nation that set the precedent. The U.S. has stockpiled these same weapons (and more) for over 40 years. The U.S. claims that this was done for deterrent purposes during the "Cold War" with the Soviet Union. Why, then is it invalid for Iraq to claim the same reason (deterrence) -- with respect to Iraq's (real) war with, and the continued threat of, its neighbor Iran?
The administration claims that Iraq has used these weapons in the past. We've all seen the pictures that show a Kurdish woman and child frozen in death from the use of chemical weapons. But, have you ever seen these pictures juxtaposed next to pictures from Hiroshima or Nagasaki?
I suggest that one study the histories of World War I, World War II and other "regional conflicts" that the U.S. has been involved in to familiarize themselves with the use of "weapons of mass destruction."
Remember Dresden? How about Hanoi? Tripoli? Baghdad? What about the big ones -- Hiroshima and Nagasaki? (At these two locations, the U.S. killed at least 150,000 non-combatants -- mostly women and children -- in the blink of an eye. Thousands more took hours, days, weeks, or months to die.)
If Saddam is such a demon, and people are calling for war crimes charges and trials against him and his nation, why do we not hear the same cry for blood directed at those responsible for even greater amounts of "mass destruction" -- like those responsible and involved in dropping bombs on the cities mentioned above?
The truth is, the U.S. has set the standard when it comes to the stockpiling and use of weapons of mass destruction.
Hypocrisy when it comes to death of children? In Oklahoma City, it was family convenience that explained the presence of a day-care center placed between street level and the law enforcement agencies which occupied the upper floors of the building. Yet when discussion shifts to Iraq, any day-care center in a government building instantly becomes "a shield." Think about that.
(Actually, there is a difference here. The administration has admitted to knowledge of the presence of children in or near Iraqi government buildings, yet they still proceed with their plans to bomb -- saying that they cannot be held responsible if children die. There is no such proof, however, that knowledge of the presence of children existed in relation to the Oklahoma City bombing.)
When considering morality and mens rea [criminal intent] in light of these facts, I ask: Who are the true barbarians?
Yet another example of this nation's blatant hypocrisy is revealed by the polls which suggest that this nation is greatly in favor of bombing Iraq.
In this instance, the people of the nation approve of bombing government employees because they are "guilty by association" -- they are Iraqi government employees. In regard to the bombing in Oklahoma City, however, such logic is condemned.
What motivates these seemingly contradictory positions? Do people think that government workers in Iraq are any less human than those in Oklahoma City? Do they think that Iraqis don't have families who will grieve and mourn the loss of their loved ones? In this context, do people come to believe that the killing of foreigners is somehow different than the killing of Americans?
I recently read of an arrest in New York City where possession of a mere pipe bomb was charged as possession of a "weapon of mass destruction." If a two pound pipe bomb is a "weapon of mass destruction," then what do people think that a 2,000-pound steel-encased bomb is?
I find it ironic, to say the least, that one of the aircraft that could be used to drop such a bomb on Iraq is dubbed "The Spirit of Oklahoma."
When a U.S. plane or cruise missile is used to bring destruction to a foreign people, this nation rewards the bombers with applause and praise. What a convenient way to absolve these killers of any responsibility for the destruction they leave in their wake.
Unfortunately, the morality of killing is not so superficial. The truth is, the use of a truck, a plane, or a missile for the delivery of a weapon of mass destruction does not alter the nature of the act itself.
These are weapons of mass destruction -- and the method of delivery matters little to those on the receiving end of such weapons.
Whether you wish to admit it or not, when you approve, morally, of the bombing of foreign targets by the U.S. military, you are approving of acts morally equivalent to the bombing in Oklahoma City. The only difference is that this nation is not going to see any foreign casualties appear on the cover of Newsweek magazine.
It seems ironic and hypocritical that an act viciously condemned in Oklahoma City is now a "justified" response to a problem in a foreign land. Then again, the history of United States policy over the last century, when examined fully, tends to exemplify hypocrisy.
When considering the use of weapons of mass destruction against Iraq as a means to an end, it would be wise to reflect on the words of the late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis. His words are as true in the context of Olmstead as they are when they stand alone: "Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example."
Sincerely
Timothy J. McVeigh

The Very Special Guests (VSG) are a 5 piece pop/rock band from North London consisting of lead singer Kieran Lynch, Bassist Adrian Moore, Drummer Bobby Davies and guitarists Jon Collard and Ant Roberts. They formed in 2004 and quickly began touring the London club circuit playing their blend of groove based rock, pop and funk fused by their own devilishly catchy songs.

[edit] The August Decrees
After the storming of the Bastille Jail on July 17, 1789, a mass uproar spread from Paris to the countryside. Noble families were attacked by hunger-driven peasants and the aristocratic manors were burnt. Abbeys and castles were attacked and destroyed. The peers started to emigrate to the cities of France, and incidents of brigandage multiplied by the moment. The season was of ‘La Grande Peur’ (the Great Fear) --- a period of social hysteria and anxiety over who was going to be the next victim of a faceless mob of cruel debauchers. What they failed to understand was that the violence that started the Great Fear (in most cases) was begun not by homeless people but by settled countrymen who took this opportunity to further their own cause.
The Great Fear opened up the vulnerable nature of the French Government--- there was a lack of authority at the very centre of it. The prolonged riots and massacres led to the general anxiety that things might get out of control… and it did. Seigneurial game was the main target of these rioters. It was an experience that the country had never undergone before.
By late July 1789, as the peasant revolt reports poured into Paris from every part of the country, the National Assembly of France decided to reform the social pattern of the country in order to pacify the outraged peasants and encourage them towards peace and harmony. The discussion continued through the night of the fourth of August, and on the morning of the fifth the National Assembly abolished the Feudal System, and eliminated many clerical and noble priviledges. The August decrees were finally completed a week later.
The Decrees
Article One – The National Assembly declared the feudal system abolished thereafter. Within the “existing rights and dues, both feudal and censuel(This refers to the cens, a perpetual due similar to the payments made by English copyholders), all those originating in or representing real or personal serfdom shall be abolished without indemnification.” [1] All other dues were redeemable, but the terms and mode of redemption was to be fixed by the National Assembly. Those dues that were not removed by this decree were to be collected as usual until indemnification took place.
Article Two – The exclusive rights to allow birds to graze and dovecotes were abolished. The pigeons were to be confined during the period mentioned by the community, because during that time, they would be looked upon as fair game and anyone would have the right to kill them on their own land.
Article Three – The exclusive rights of keeping unenclosed warrens were abolished as well. Every landowner shall have the rights to destroy all kinds of game in their own land. However, public safety regulations must be maintained by them. All hunting spaces, including the royal forest, and all hunting rights were similarly abolished as well. There were provisions made for the king’s hunting, however, for his personal pleasure in it. The president of the Assembly was commissioned to ask of the king the release of those people who were sent to prison or exiled for the violation of the previously existing hunting rights.
Article Four – All the Manorial Courts were suppressed, but the judges and other officials of justice were allowed to continue with their duties until further instructions from the National Assembly.
Article Five – Any kind of tithes, as well as any substitution for them were abolished. Whosoever possessed them,“…secular or regular congregations, by holders of benefices, members of corporations (including the Order of Malta and other religious and military orders), as well as those devoted to the maintenance of churches, those impropriated to lay persons, and those substituted for the portion congrue[This expression refers to the minimum remuneration fixed for the priests], are abolished, on condition, however, that some other method be devised to provide for the expenses of divine worship, the support of the officiating clergy, for the assistance of the poor, for repairs and rebuilding of churches and parsonages, and for the maintenance of all institutions, seminaries, schools, academies, asylums, and organizations to which the present funds are devoted.”[2] Until these provisions were made, the National Assembly allowed the priests to collect the tithes. All the other tithes, which were not abolished under this law, were to be collected as usual.
Article Six – All sorts of ground rents were redeemable at a price the National Assembly fixed. No dues were to be created in the future that was irredeemable.
Article Seven – Selling judicial and municipal offices were abolished. Justice should be dispensed freely. However, all such magistrates were to do their duty until further instructions from the National Assembly.
Article Eight – As soon as the portion congrue was increased, the fees of all parish priests and curates were abolished.
Article Nine – Fiscal priviledges in the payment of taxes were abolished forever. Taxes were to be collected from all the citizens, in exactly the same manner, and plans were to be considered to set up a new method of tax collection.
Article Ten – All particular priviledges given to certain provinces, district, cities, cantons and communes, financial or otherwise, were abolished because under the new rules, every part of France was equal.
Article Eleven – All citizens, no matter what class or birth he might be, were eligible for any office in civil and military service.
Article Twelve – No allowances were to be made for “…annates or for any other purpose to the court of Rome, the vice legation at Avignon, or to the nunciature at Lucerne.”[3] The clergy should apply to their bishops for financial donations and benefits, which shall be given free to any church of France.
Article Thirteen – Various ecclesiastical dues were thereby abolished by the National Assembly.
Article Fourteen – The revenue limited to the clergies were restricted to the sum of three thousand livres. Any individual could not enjoy the benefits of several pensions at the same time, if the pensions that he already enjoyed was more than three thousand livres.
Article Fifteen – The King and the National Assembly would together consider all the reports that were to be presented with regards to pensions, favors and salaries, and would have a right to suppress or reduce that which was undeserved.
Article Sixteen – A Medal was to be struck in the memory of the important deliberations for the welfare of France, and “…a Te Deum shall be chanted in gratitude in all the parishes and the churches of France.”[4]
Article Seventeen – King Louis XVI was proclaimed the Restorer of French Liberty.
Article Eighteen – The National Assembly was to present itself as a body before the king and submit this important set of decrees, and Te Deum was to be sung in the chapel of the king.
Article Nineteen – As soon as possible, the National Assembly was to give grave consideration to the drawing up of the laws that would be help carry out these decrees.
The Impact of the Decrees
The August Decrees were declared with the idea of calming down the populace and encouraging them towards civility. However, the August Decrees revised itself over and over again during the next two years. King Louis XVI, in a letter, on the one hand expressed deep satisfaction with “…the noble and generous demarche of the first two orders of the state…” who, according to him had “…made great sacrifices for the general reconciliation, for their patrie and for their king.” On the other hand, he went on to say that though the “…sacrifices were fine, I cannot admire it; I will never consent to the despolitan of my clergy and my nobility… I will never give my sanction to the decrees that despoil them, for then the French people one day could accuse me of injustice or weakness.”[5] What Louis was concerned with was not with the loss of position of the French nobility and clergy, but with adequate reparation for this loss. But his phraseology showed his inability to accept the concept of all men being equal.
Meanwhile, the August Decrees paved the way for the National Assembly to make the Declaration of the Rights of Man. It brought forward the first concrete steps towards Liberty, Equality and Fraternity.

[edit] Peter Gan
Peter loves the advertising business but hates the red tape that comes with it. For more than 20 years, Peter has been a practitioner of advertising and a keen observer of the ever changing marketing environment. 'Change is the only constant' he observes.That credo has largely been the philosophy of his Agency- ganforhire he co-founded with his wife 10 years ago. Always evolving and reinventing himself, Peter has proclaimed that; 'Advertising is dead. Long live Advertising' In preparation of that fact, he has recently ventured into IT solutions with Indian IT specialists to build businesses online.
He plays golf, invokes Gandhi, Neil French and Oscar Wilde, has Peterpan on his handphone and in his spare time, tears up the road on his Ducati. He spouts New Age theology as effortlessly as he talks about the virtues of sustainable development, all the while espousing the importance of history, faith and a good glass of wine. Peter Gan is a man of the times with a penchant for ideas that are before their time, inspiring his people to create work that defines the times.

[edit] Liszt: Polonaise No. 1 in C minor
Liszt's Polonaise No. 1 in C minor was published for the first time in 1851. This happened two years after the death of his Polish composer friend Frédéric Chopin (1810–1849). Polonaise was a Polish dance which Chopin had brought also to the concert halls and salons in his solo piano music. Polonaise in C minor was Liszt's first attempt to write a piece in a Polish style, and he succeeded to create a very deep, impressive and dark composition without any signs of superficial virtuoso effects. Even though the piece is technically demanding, its every note carries a serious musical message.

[edit] Honda Shadow VT 750 C
[edit] The History of the Honda Shadow
[edit] The '70s
In 1970 Honda's cumulative motorcycle exports reached 5 million. The US imported the industries first three-wheeler in the "ATC90 All Terrain Cycle".
1970 also saw the introduction of the "CB100 Super Sport 100', the "CL100 Scrambler 100", the "SL100 Motosport 100" and the "SL175 Motosport 175". A "750 Honda" won the 1970 Daytona 200.
ln l971 another four-cylinder motorcycle appeared in the "CB500 500 Four".
1972 saw the "CB350F 350 Four" new on the show room floors.
ln 1973 both Mr. Honda and Mr. Fujisawa retired, 25 years after the formation of the Honda Motor Company. Mr. Kiyoshi Kawashima was named the new president. For sale were the new 'ATC70' which was the first mini ATC. The first "XR" mini model was in the "XR75". The "TL125" which was the first trials motorcycle and the first two-stroke sold in the U.S., was released this year.
1971 saw the introduction of several new model concepts in the "CB200", the "CRI25 Elsinore". the "MT125 Elsinore" and the "MT250 Elsinore" dual purpose models. The "CB200", the "CL200", the "XL350", and the "CB360T" which replaced the popular "CB350".
1975 saw the roll out of the first liquid cooled, shaft-drive "GL1000 Gold Wing" along with Honda's first off-road-only enduro model in the "MR175 Elsinore". The "CB-100F Super Sport" replaced the"CB350F" and a new "CB550F Super Sport" emerged. The "CB750F Super Sport" was also new with the first 4-into-l exhaust system.
In 1976 Honda released it's first automatic transmission in a motorcycle with the "CB750A Hondamatic". The "GL1000 LTD Gold Wing" limited edition model, with only 2000 units produced, caught the eye of a few lucky buyers.
When 1976 came around, we saw a new kind of four-wheeler off-road vehicle in the "FL250 Odyssey". American Honda's first "no-ped", the "NC50 Express" found homes in the states. The company became the first to announce that a Japanese motorcycle manufacturer would move a portion of it's process to the U.S. A new corporation "Honda of America Manufacturing" broke ground to assemble and manufacture products at a facility in Marysville, Ohio.
New products for 1978 included the first motorcycle counterbalancer and three valved head in the "CB400T Hawk". The first "V-Twin" motorcycle was in the "CS500".
In 1979, Honda products included the appearance of the Superbike of Superbikes with the in-line six "CBX Super Sport" along with a double overhead cam "CB750F Super Sport" with 16 valves. Honda's first custom models were released with the "CX500C". Also new this year was the "CB750K LTD" 10th anniversary limited edition model. The Marysville plant was in full production by September.
[edit] The '80s
In 1980, a larger "GL1100 Gold Wing Interstate" headed the model year. It was the industy's first full-dressed touring bike. The "CB900C Custom" was also introduced as the first dual-range transmission for the street.
In 1981, Team Honda gave America a first in world team motocross. The Honda Race Team swept both the Motocross and Trophee des Nations events. Team Honda repeated the sweep in 1982. A series of motocross bikes were out as well as a new "GL500 Silver Wing" and a "GL500I Silver Wing Interstate" designed to be a mid size touring bike.
ln 1982, two industry firsts appeared with the introduction of the modern V-Four engines in the "VF750S Sabre" with a new hydraulic clutch actuator and in the "VF750C Magna". The first production use of turbocharging with electronic fuel injection specifically designed for a V-Twin motorcycle appeared in the "CX500TC Turbo". Also new was the "FT500 Ascot" and the "GL1100A Gold Wing Aspencade" with the first audio equipment grouping as standard equipment. The "CB450SC", the "CB650SC" and the "CB750SC" were the new Nighthawk models introduced.
A new president was ushered into America Honda in 1983 with Tetsuo Chino. Along with some new scooters, Honda rolled out a new "CB550SC" and "CB650SC" Nighthawks, the "VF750F V45 Interceptor", and the "CX650T Turbo". This year was the birth of the "Shadow" motorcycle. Both the "T750C Shadow/;which incorporated the first hydraulic valve adjuster, and a"VT500C Shadow" was in the showrooms. It took a few years, but the shadow is here and a better bike for the ones that came before it.

Part Three
The Shadow Years
by Bob Maynard
The inntroduction of the first "Shadow" models was in 1983. It was the result of years of development and synergies by Honda to address the needs of the American market. I believe most of our readers will agree it is the best bike Honda has made to date.
1983
The "VT500C" introduced this year was available in Candy Wineberry Red or Black. The identifying features of this model are the painting of both the fuel tank and rear fenders. The side covers are chrome and engine covers black. The Black and Red "Shadow 500" decal was on the side cover with a gold outline from '83 to '86. The headlight was chrome and rectangular and had a single horn. The engine was 491cc OHC 3-valve, liquid cooled V-Twin with a six-speed, shaft drive transmission from
'83 to '86.
The "VT750C" also introduced this year was also available in either Black or Candy Wineberry Red. Special identifying features of this model are the round head lamp, instrument casings and the chromed front fender. The backrest was standard equipment. The painted side covers had the "Shadow 750" decal. The engine is a 749cc SOHC 3-valve Liquid Cooled V-Twin with a six-speed shaft drive transmission.
1984
The "VT500C' was available in Candy Scorpio Red or Black. The identifying features include the fuel tank and rear fenders painted the same. The front fender is chrome and this year the side covers and engine covers were painted black. The black and red "Shadow 500" decal was on the side cover with a gold outline. The headlight was chrome and rectangular and there was a single horn. The engine is virtually the same as the '83 model.
The "VT700C" was introduced this year as a direct result of increased tariffs placed on Japan's imports. The U.S. raised the import tariffs on engine sizes above 701cc's. So the engine size was reduced from a 750cc to 700cc to get the bikes into the U.S. This years model was available in either Black or Candy Scorpio Red on the tank, side covers and rear fender. Special identifying features of this model are the round head lamp and instrument casings with a chromed front fender. The front wheel bore a dual disk brake system and dual horns mounted on the front. The painted side covers had the "Shadow 700" decal. The engine is a 694cc SOHC 3-Valve Liquid Cooled V-Twin with a six-speed, shaft drive transmission from 1984 to '87. New hydraulic valve adjusters and twin plug cylinder heads were used
from 1984 to '87.
1985
The "VT500C" model was available in either Black or Candy Glory Red. The head lamp was now round and chromed. This model continued with the dual horns. A two piece seat with an integrated backrest was incorporated. Starting this year, the engine covers were polished chrome and the fins enlarged. The "Honda" tank decal was curved instead of straight.
The "VT700C" model was available in either Black or Candy Glory Red. Special identifying features of this model year included the polished chrome engine side covers. The painted side covers had the "Shadow 700" decal. The engine is the same as the '84 model year.
The "VT1100C" model was introduced and available in either a two-tone Black and Red or Black and Silver tank with black fenders. The side cover is painted two tone black and silver. The "Shadow" side cover decal is silver. The dual horns are still located on the front and turning indicators are square shaped. A few guages are located on the tank. The new engine is a 1039cc SOHC Liquid Cooled V-Twin with a 5-speed, shaft drive transmission for '85 and '86.
1986
The "VT500C" model was available in either Black or a new Candy Scorpio Red. Everything else was virtually the some for the '85 model.
The "VT700C" model was available in either Black or Candy Brilliant Red. On this year's model, the front and rear fenders and tank were all painted the same color. The rear fender took on a flair look over the rounded style. The "Honda Wing" and "Shadow" decals were speckled gold and orange. The engine is the same as the '84 model with the right engine cover graphic painted black. The mufflers were a little lower and changed from the flair look to a more straight style. The rear foot peg support bracket became solid and the back rest was absent this year. The cast wheels changed from a 10-spoke to a 5-spoke design and the access covers were chromed.
The "VT1100C" model was available in either Black or a two-toned Black and Silver tank. The side cover is painted two-tone black and silver on both color options. The "Shadow" side cover decal was changed to gold. The engine is the same as the '85 model.
1987
The "VT700C" model was available in either Black or Candy Glory Red on a black frame. This year's model changed the "Honda" tank decal to black with a gold outline. The "Honda Wing" decal was changed to brown, orange and yellow. The engine is the same as the '84 model but with the right engine cover graphic not painted. The side covers are chrome, 5 spoke cast wheels with a single front disk brake.
The "VT1100C" model took on a brand new look with a lower 26-inch high seat`, a longer 65 inch wheel base, a large 3.4 gallon fuel tank and a 41 mm extended front fork design. Both mufflers were run along the right side and a small back rest was brought back. It was available in either Black or Candy Wineberry Red. The tank is striped in silver. The frame color is black and the spark plug wires are yellow through '88. The engine is a 1093cc SOHC 3-Valve, liquid cooled V-twin with a 3-speed, shaft drive transmission.
1988
The "VT800C" model replaced the "VT700C". The paint options were either two-oned Black & Candy Glory Red or Candy Wineberry Red & Dry Silver Metallic. On the Black unit, the "Shadow" tank decal is silver and on the Red unit the "Shadow" tank decal is gold. The engine was increased to a 800cc SOHC 3-Valve liquid cooled V-Twin with a 4-speed, shaft drive transmission.
The "VT1100C" model was available in Black and a new Candy Wineberry Red color. The fuel tank stripe was deleted this year. The frame was color matched to the tank and fenders. The spark plug wires went back to black from the yellow color.
The "VLX" "VT600C" was a new model out this year. The color options were Candy Wave Blue and Candy Wineberry Red. The new double-cradle steel frame is color matched to the body work. It has a single shock rear suspension, a low 27.1 inch seat height and a long 63.2 inch wheelbase with a 2.4 gallon fuel tank. The engine is a 583cc SOHC 3-Valve liquid cooled 52 degree V-Twin with a 4-speed transmission and chain drive. The wheels are spoked.
1989
The "VT1100C" model was available in two colors this year, Candy Wineberry Red and a new Indian Lake Blue Metallic. The seat was improvement was softer and tucked. The "Shadow" tank logo was changed to a script style.
The "VLX" "VT600C" color options for this year was Candy Wave Blue or Candy Wineberry Red and the "Shadow" tank logo was also changed to a script style.
1990
The "VT1100C" model was available in only one color this year, Indian Lake Blue Metallic. The frame sryle and engine mechanics have not changed.
The " VLX" "VT600C" was not made this year but did make a come back in 1991.
1991
The "VT1100C" model was not manufactured this year. Seems inventories were still high enough for the '90 models to suspend manufacturing of 91's. Dealerships heard about it and huge orders were placed to buy up all existing stock. The model would return with a vengeance in 1992.
The "VLX" "VT600C" returned this year but in Black only.
1992
The "VT1100c" came back with a grand entrance boasting some new custom two-tone paint options on either a black or silver frame; Spectra Red with black or silver inserts on the tank and fenders, Teal with silver inserts, Cascade Silver Metallic with either teal, red or black inserts, Black with either silver, red or teal inserts. There were two different tank decals also available and the seat began to bare a "Made in the USA" stamp. This year all bikes had the California option of an emissions control device mounted below the radiator.
The "VLX" "VT600C" this year came in a bright Candy Glory Red paint. The engine and body style was retained from the '91 model year.
1993
The "VT1100C" was released with some new color options this year, all on a black frame; a Candy Red with either black, silver or pearl white inserts on fenders and tank, Metallic Teal with either silver, black or pearl white inserts, Black with candy red, silver or pearl white inserts, a darker Red with black inserts and a new South Paciflc Blue Metallic with pearl white inserts. Again the two-toned versions could be ordered with one of two different "Shadow" tank decals. Other than the 26 color and logo options, the basic bike is being cranked out pretty much the same as previous model years.
The "VLX" "VT600C" was rolling out the dealerships in Black this year. The Deluxe version "VT600D" introduced this year added more chrome on the engine cases and valve covers. This model is available in a two-tone Coral Reef Blue with black inserts. The seat on the deluxe version is soft and tucked.

Addendum:
In 1995, the V-Twin market really got going, the market expanded and all the manufacturers were coming out with new, larger and expanded model lines. Harley had begun to wear out its welcome with many although the sales remained strong, the market began to pass it by because of sheer numbers, many devoted enthusiasts of Japanese and European brands and its continued the continued distain of a segment of the market. Harley did build a new facility in Kansas City and introduced a new engine in 1998 for the 1999 model year.
Yamaha introduced variations on its V-MAX/Venture engine called the Royal Star and this line expanded with a smaller version.
1996 was the last year for the "standard" VT1100C. In 1995 the American Classic Edition was introduced. It featured more retro styling that the standard with a full rear fender and induced vibrations from a single crank engine. The model also lost about 10 horse power, much to the dismay of some owners.
1997 saw the Standard replaced with the Spirit with more chrome on the engine ala the ACE but the same basic engine as the standard. An ACE Tourer was also introduced based on the Spirit engine but the ACE styling.
In 1998 the Aero came into being, again based on the ACE engine with the single crank, but a larger two into one exhaust and more retro styling. In the US, the ACE 750 was also introduced. Throughout these years the VLX remained essentially unchaged mechanically but the models and the options were changed yearly, as they were on all models. While many of the manufacturers began to expand 1500cc class model lines, Honda opted to replace the basic Gold Wing Interstate with a basic Valkryie with six carbs and boosted engine performance. In 1999 a dressed up Tourer model was added as the Interstate. The Shadow line remains the smaller V-Twins at Honda, one of the most complete lines of V-twin Cruisers on the market, and argumentably the best engineered.

[edit] Hydraulic Fracturing
What is Hydraulic Fracturing?
This half century-old technology is used in oil and natural gas production. This technique allows oil or natural gas to move more freely from the rock pores where they are trapped to a producing well that can bring the oil or gas to the surface.
After a well is drilled into a reservoir rock that contains oil, natural gas, and water, every effort is made to maximize the production of oil and gas. One way to improve or maximize the flow of fluids to the well is to connect many pre-existing fractures and flow pathways in the reservoir rock with a larger fracture. This larger, man-made fracture starts at the well and extends out into the reservoir rock for as much as several hundred feet. The man-made or hydraulic fracture is formed when a fluid is pumped down the well at high pressures for short periods of time (hours). The high pressure fluid (usually water with some specialty high viscosity fluid additives) exceeds the rock strength and opens a fracture in the rock. A propping agent, usually sand carried by the high viscosity additives, is pumped into the fractures to keep them from closing when the pumping pressure is released. The high viscosity fluid becomes a lower viscosity fluid after a short period of time. Both the injected water and the now low viscosity fluids travel back through the man-made fracture to the well and up to the surface.

[edit] Russian Green (4BO)
From 1938 the main color for Soviet military equipment (armored and unarmored vehicles, including aircraft and artillery) was "Protective Paint Green, Shade 4BO". In the West, 4BO was referred to as "Russian Olive" or "Russian Green". During the Great Patriotic War, tanks and other equipment left the factories unpainted. 4BO was delivered as components and was mixed in the field. The formula [40-60% Ochre; 15-20% Kron (zinc hydrochromate); 10-20% Zinc White; and 8-13% Ultramarine] has wide error bands resulting in a spectrum of mostly but not entirely green colors. Left to itself, 4BO blackens as it ages, but when exposed to weather, it whitens. Thus it's both lightening AND darkening at the same time. Olive (NOT Olive Drab) is a reasonable match for the basic 4BO color.
The Formula [Source: "Instruction on painting of 1941"]
Ochre 40-60% - yellowish mineral paint from the clay rich in the oxides or solvents of oxides of Ferrum. Goethite (brown ochre) is a mineral of hydrated iron oxide and abundantly present in iron ore deposits. Goethite is the yellow compound in mineral pigments known as ochre, sienna and umber. A yellowish-brown pigment from mines in Kaluzhskaia, Russia.
Zinc Kron 15-20% - (light) yellow paint from lead salt of zinc acid. Kron was originally based on highly toxic zinc hydrochromate (later replaced with calcium chrome phosphate). Zinc hydrochromate, aka chromium zinc oxide / zinc tetraoxychromate / chromic acid (empirical formula: ZnCrO4*4Zn(OH)2), is the most potent carcinogen among chromates commonly found in industrial settings (lowest published lethal dose: 30 mg/kg). Another zinc chromate is dark green to black and has a different composition: ZnCr2O4*4Zn(OH)2
Zinc White 10-20% - zinc oxide Belila Tsinkovye (zinc oxide) is a synthetic inorganic pigment of white color received by sublimation and oxidation of metallic zinc.
Ultramarine 8-13% - dark blue, complex sulfur containing sodium aluminum silicate Empirical formula: Na(8-10)Al6Si6O24S(2-4)
