What Car Shuld I Buy A Lotus For About $75000 Or another Car And Supe It Up.?

Should I buy a Lotus Elise for $75000 or buy either a Mitsubishi Lancer, Lancer Evo, Spider, Toyota Corolla or a Nissan 350Z and spend the lest over money to supe up the car.

What Car Shuld I Buy A Lotus For About $75000 Or another Car And Supe It Up.?
nobody that knows anything about racing measures speed in 0-60mph time. I am not trying to insult anyone, just trying to educate the asker of the question. You can take a ford escort and strip all the wieght out of it and it will run a 4.5 0-60mph time. This is because you do not need hp to run a quick 0-60 time because all cars can go 60mph, but when it comes to where you need the hp 60-100mph you see a huge drop off in these cars. The only times to use are 0-60 foot time and more importantly 1/4 mile time. While the lotus has a quick 0-60mph time, they really drop off when it comes to the 1/4 mile. they are not even a 12 second car which is really bad for the money they cost. This is because they have very little horsepower in todays world, they are just extremely light. If you want a tuner car then go with the evo, they are all wheel drive and already have a turbo so upgrades will be eaiser then they would with a 350z for example. If you want a car that is fast out of the box for 75k go with a Z06 vette, 505 hp low 12 high 11 second car with very good handling. If you want the fastest car on the road that you will modify go with a 04 cobra. They are the only cars on the planet that are under 50k that come with a built motor. This means that the stock motor they come with from the factory can handle up to 1000hp without any problems. You can get a 04 cobra with less then 10k miles for about 28k and if you put 8k into the car after that you will have a 9 second car. It just takes a kenne bell supercharger(and the products that come with it), exhaust, cold air intake, torco fuel additive,drag radials, and level 4 halfshafts for your independant rear supspension and you have yourself a 800+ horsepower vehical that can run in the high 9's. It sounds like from what you wrote that you are more into the tuners then the muscle cars so I would deffinately go with the evo if I were you. There are a few at the track that are running great 1/4 times and they handle extremely well with the all wheel drive. What ever you choose you will have a blast. Good luck and have fun


p.s. everything noted above is facts obtained from research there is no misinformation.
Reply:You should just get the Lotus Elise (it actually lists at about $45k, whether you can get it at that price or not) and make a couple modifications if necessary. That isn't all that much more than a Lancer Evolution, or a 350Z. The Lotus though is way better performing. It is quick-0-60 in ~4.5 sec, and also has superior handling-some say it is what defines excellent chassis performance. You don't really need to modify it anyway.

How to convert structured text from lotus notes into csv??

Hi,





I have some ( actually a lot of) data which has been exported as structured text from a lotus notes database and I need to convert it into csv(comma seperated values) format.





Do you know a program or a method to do that?





Thanks

How to convert structured text from lotus notes into csv??
i am assuming by structured text you mean fixed-width data structure, if so is the case, you can do it easily with Microsoft Excel,





open your file with Excel and goto Data-%26gt; Text To Column.


this will popup a menu, then select fixed width (the 2nd choice) and hit next, in the 2nd step you'll now have to define where one fields starts and ends.





The following link is a very good tutorial of MS Excel, text to column.


http://www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/...





once you've parsed the file (made differnt fields appear in different columns), go ahead and save your file AS .csv file.





try it and see if it helps. Best of luck

Is anyone out there still using Lotus 1-2-3 and how difficult is it to convert to Excel?

I have exchanged Lotus 1-2-3 files with colleagues. They tell me that they can open the file with Excel and read it on the screen, but when they print it there are large black letters obscuring most of the spreadsheet, rendering it useless!

Is anyone out there still using Lotus 1-2-3 and how difficult is it to convert to Excel?
Wow. Haven't seen Lotus for years. However, try opening your Lotus file and check out the "File, Save AS" options. See if you can save as ASCII, CSV, txt.





Then, open a new Excel document and click File, Open or File, Import.





Because the ASCII, CSV, or txt files are not Excel files, you will have to indicate that the file is delimited and how it is delimited.





ASCII delimited fields by enclosing each field in quotes and separating them with a comma.





CSV simply separates them by comma.





The data will read in. When all the data are in the Excel file, immediately name and save it, and be sure the filetype (on the bottom) indicates Excel worksheet.

Then we rob or mudda


Find a shutta


And shoot fo or fo each otha


I blame it all on the people around me


It's because of them god never found me


Right?? (wrong)





[Blaze Ya Dead Homie:]


Before I hit the ground


When I got three in the chest


I should've guessed my time was over


Should've worn the ******* vest


But I wasn't thinking straight


Caught up in the thug life


Was the king on the streets


Now I'm asking god to take my life


To the pearly gates


So I can rest peacefully


But he wasn't helping me


Why has he forsaken me?


To eternity in hell


Left to rot in the grave


And if it wasn't for the Lotus


I'd still be there today





[Chorus:]


Call upon your gods


Beg for them to help you


Call upon your gods


Religion has left you


Got a final hour


Cross the final line


Life will end


But there is no end to time


Call upon your gods


Beg for them to help you


Call upon your gods


Religion has left you


Got a final hour


Cross the final line


Life will end


But there is no end to time





[Shaggy 2 Dope:]


Skin seperates from bone


Seperates from bone


One hot flash of metal


Now your on this earth alone


Laying face down in you're own blood


With nowhere to turn


Everything from your finger tips to toes burn


Heat sets skin deep


Open up your eyes


The cold clutch of death's hand


He could care less about your life


As Hell's Chariots come to carry you away


You finally realize


It's to late to pray





[Monoxide Child:]


Help me out


I can't understand the way you think


Or what you're talking about


I see you sitting


Perfect circles


With disciples of Satan


I got my shotgun ******


Newspapers and revelations


Every bullet is a story


They keep it glorified


The media's the target


And now they gots to die


Son of Sam


Sam of son


Buck you with my shotgun


Wicked work will be done


**** it catch a hot one





[Chorus]





[Jamie Madrox:]


There ain't no end in time


You hear me hethan ***** boy?


Bite your devil tongue


Before I stab you with this pitch fork


All that **** you talk about


"My God is ashamed"


Crying in pain


Calling his name


Your such a hypocrite


Low down inconsiderate


Piece of ****


And you ain't worth an ounce of spit


Blasphemous


Dissing my lord


And clocked out


Where's the tough guy


That told my God to go and **** himself?





[Anybody Killa:]


I called apon my god


He told me which path to take


I just hope it's not another mistake


Confused by the things that I'm feeling


Guns that I carry, hoes that I'm drilling


Tell me is this just another ****** situation


Calling on my God cause he's the cause of all creation


Never was told things would be like this


Always visioned that my life would be filled with happiness

During each cycle of life on this very planet


You have a begining, and you have an ending


As each cycle accurs


The souls living are forced to make a descision


They must choose to live life


Following either the stoic path of the depoutonous of worship,


that many believe that this will leads to an afterlife of eternal bliss.


Or they may choose to live life following the obuliant path, of heterminism and non belief.


Which many believe leads only to eternal damn nation.


In this day and age, the time of choice is strongly upon us.


A Lotus of the night.


A simple Dark Lotus has emerged from sacred soil.


From this unfolds the single truth.


Those who believe in the gospel of the Dark Carnival recognize this as a last warning.

Is there a home Version of Lotus Notes?

I want to download a home version of Lotus Notes, does anyone know where I can get a home version if there is such a thing?

Is there a home Version of Lotus Notes?
I know at the FAA there is a web-based version of Lotus Notes we can access, but I don't know if this is an FAA only program, or if it is something you could access as well.





I would suspect the web version would be available, Notes is kind of a high end product (well, high cost), you might be better served by a different program if you don't already have Notes, say, at work.
Reply:The web interface version is called webmail. Report It



Can I open .nsf mail (w/ attachments) without using Lotus Notes?

I'm changing jobs. My old employer uses Lotus Notes for email, my new employer does not. I have a significant number of emails and attachments that I would like to access in the future. Is there a way to open these emails and attachments with a product other than Lotus Notes?

Can I open .nsf mail (w/ attachments) without using Lotus Notes?
You can actually export all of your mail files and open them up in word. The only problem with that, is it can become hard to read some of them and everyonce in awhile theres problems with attachments.


Meaning or the band Dark Lotus?

Ok im a juggalo and i know all the meaning of of the jokers cards and what everything else means but i was wondering if Dark Lotus had a meaning at all?

Nope


Just Violent J, Shaggy, Madrox, Monoxide and Blaze being Lotus, and I agree with Jas, the lyrics are much more religious

Porsche Cayman, SLK 350, or Lotus Elise?

I am 16, 17 in march and might get the car in the summer. These would all be my daily drivers. Which do you think is the best? The Lotus is no doubt the hottest car, but also has the cheapest interior and probably the least safe. However, it also has the cheapest price tag at a shade under $50,000. But, it doesn't come with free maitenence.


The SLK 350 is hot. I looked at it two days ago, I love it. But, mercedes doesn't have a maitenence plan anymore, you have to add $4000 to the price you pay, which would make this car the most money at $57,000.


And, the porsche cayman. A hot look, a status name, a true sports car. I believe Porsche has a free a free maitinence plan, which would make this middle of the pack in price at $55,000.


So, which should I get? Why should I get it? Thanks for the help.

Porsche Cayman, SLK 350, or Lotus Elise?
My favorite car is the Porsche Cayman S.


The Base Porsche Cayman has the same performance of a Nissan 350z in acceleration, but the 350z is $35,000. I would not get the base Cayman, but I would choose the Cayman S. The Porsche has 2 trunks, the best gas mileage out of the 3 cars and it has the highest top speed.





Ther Mercedes is OK too.


I would choose the Lotus over the Mercedes because the SLK is smooth and quiet like all mercedes. The lotus is fun to drive.


If I was super rich, i would choose the Cayman.
Reply:Is this going to be your first car? If so, then the answer is.. get a Ford Escort or Toyota Corolla or something cheap for the first few months or even a year. Get used to driving, the rules, the laws, and such. Driving a sports car as a first car at 16 or 17 is a good way to end up in a ditch with a wrecked $50k car.





That said, I'm personally partial to the Lotus. You couldn't go wrong with any of them though, they're all awesome cars.
Reply:First of all you need to decide what you are looking for in a car.





The Mercedes is not the same type of performer as the Porsche or Lotus. It's more of a luxury roadster and is most importantly a convertible.





The Lotus is very sparse and is purpose built, meaning it was intentionally built without a lot of extras and is meant to be driven. I don't know if you've sat in one but they are very impractical to get in and out of. Girls will think it's cute until they get out in a skirt and have no choice but to show everyone their panties. From then on you'll be taking her car. It does have Toyota reliability as the engine is a Toyota unit. But as you said, it isn't exactly the safest car on the road. Not to mention the insurance companies will total it quick with just a front clamshell collision.





The Cayman, is a great combination between the two, it's sporty and luxurious to a point. An Elise will give it a go around the track, but you will have no problems pulling up in valet or lapping on the track. It's really the best of both worlds between all three of your choices.





Reliability-wise they are all on par with each other. You need to consider maintenance costs. Typical Porsche services are around 1k depending on which model you have. The Elise is a bit cheaper. I don't know what the Mercedes costs are.





Hope that helps and good luck!


Does anyone know of any plans for a Lotus Elise body style change in the near future?

I have recently graduated college and started a new career. My new job pays well and after about a year of work I've been looking to splurge and buy a new car. I really like the idea of getting either a 2006 or 2007 Lotus Elise because I like the idea of a small sports car, and I really like the exotic look. I was wondering if anyone had heard anything about a body style change for this model since the current American Lotus Elise sports a body style that has been present for several years in Europe. I just don't want to make a big purchase like this and then have the body style change dramatically within 6 months of buying it. I hate it when that happens!

Does anyone know of any plans for a Lotus Elise body style change in the near future?
I have not heard of any planned changes. The Wikipedia is silent on the Elise as far as changes, which speaks volumes to me.

There is the Type 72D Limited Edition available currently.





Edmunds.Com is also silent on a new model.

Where should I get a lotus tattooed on my body? Is there any body area that is more significant for ...?

that design? I want a lotus to signify maturity and beauty.

Where should I get a lotus tattooed on my body? Is there any body area that is more significant for ...?
I hope if signifying maturity your are not somewhere in your teens and may regret this later. At any rate I have a parrot tattoo (Jimmy Buffett) that I waited many years to get. Have it put on your shoulder in the back that way you can enjoy it and not have it in your way as you progress career wise. Many people have a HUGE problem with tattoos. I have mine where it is appreciated and does not have to be covered on a daily basis. I do have my own thought for people who say you are defaming your body as I feel that tatts are a painting of who you are. I tell them "I am not defaming Gods temple, I am adding stained glass windows." Get it windows to the soul. Just make sure you get it done at a CLEAN tattoo parlor by a professional artist and TAKE CARE OF IT. It will hurt for while but for me it was worth it.

Reply:The only one that can with this 1 is u...u have to live with it 4ever and it needs to be very personal. I have 3 tatts and I love each of them but just remember if u aren't too good with pain...stay away from bones (they hurt more) and 1 side of your body can withstand more pain than the other. So pluck your eyebrows and figure out which side hurts the most and choose the otherside of your body to have your tattoo.
Reply:Top of your thigh, I've got a star there and its hot.
Reply:My father has two lotus blossoms on each hip bone. They look really nice, the white and yellow contrast greatly to the reds and purples and golds of the tatts that surround them. I hope I'm the one to recieve his skin someday.

Wats so good about the lotus??

can someone explain to me wats so good about lotus? like the top speed. is it quick? and how come so exspensive???

Wats so good about the lotus??
i dont know which lotus you are talking about but i will assume that you mean the elise or the exige (there are fairly similar).

the lotus is not the fastest car in the world but, yes, it is pretty quick. i dont know the exact top speed but, thats not what the car really is for. it is built mostly for handling and acceleration; its a really lightweight car.

it is also mostly a track car, i dont even think that air conditioning is stock.



its not that expensive, only about $45,000, yet it can compete with cars 5 times that price.
Reply:first of all, it is about drive, not comfort. and it is not expensive. if you like to enjoy pure driving experience, go for it, it is light with decent HP (around 200), but feel like really sport car
Reply:Any lotus can be defined as one thing and one thing only. A pure sports car. I possess nothing that does not aid in its ability to corner, brake, and accelerate. Although the new ones are more comfortable than the past models, they are still the same principle. A light, nimble, efficient vehicle designed to give the driver the utmost control and feeling during driving. Lotus, MG, Austin Healey, Triumph, TVR, and Morgan all followed the same principles. 50/50 weight distribution "or close to it", disc brakes, close ratio transmissions, small displacement high rev engines, and rack and pinion steering. Lotus's newest models are a modern interpretation of the old rules. Small, nimble, aggressive! When you buy a Lotus, you are paying for the unimaginable ammount of research and design engineering that was needed to produce what can only be described as one of the few pure sports cars being produced today.

What if you abandon the votary of the Lotus Sutra and start looking for another votary of the same sutra?

The West respect Buddhism and Lotus Sutra very much. However, because of half-mistake that is even not proven, they desided to abandon the votary of the Lotus Sutra, to advertise his mistakes and to insult him publicly. Are such people truly followers of Buddhism? To me they appear as enemies of Buddhism.

What if you abandon the votary of the Lotus Sutra and start looking for another votary of the same sutra?
Buddhism is about practical philosophy and adhering to moral precepts not forms of theology-followers of Buddhism are those who practice the moral code set out by the Buddha.

You're gonna have to wait a loooooong time before they drop down in price like a BMW or S2000 though... the Elise is a fairly uncommon niche vehicle, like a Porsche or a Ferrari. They'll get cheaper, but they'll never be "cheap."

Sri Lord Vishnu's Navel Lotus?

What is in the lotus stem that sprouts from Sri Lord Vishnu's navel? Where are we, and all the Universes? Are we somewhere in, or on Sri Lord Vishnu's person? What is the meaning of the cobra Sri Lord Vishnu sleeps upon? Thanks

Sri Lord Vishnu's Navel Lotus?
Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 1. Chapter 3 Text 2 by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhacktivedanta Swami Prabhupada


A part of the purusa lies down within the water of the universe, from the navel lake of His body sprouts a lotus stem, and from the lotus flower atop this stem, Brahmä, the master of all engineers in the universe, becomes manifest.


PURPORT


The first purusa is the Karanodayakasayi Visnu(Maha Visnu). From His skin holes innumerable universes have spring up. In each and every universe, the purusa enters as the Garbhodakasayi Visnu. He is lying within the half of the universe which is full with the water of His body. And from the navel of Garbhodakasayi Visnu has sprung the stem of the lotus flower, the birthplace of Brahmä, who is the father of all living beings and the master of all the demigod engineers engaged in the perfect design and working of the universal order. Within the stem of the lotus there are fourteen divisions of planetary systems, and the earthly planets are situated in the middle. Upwards there are other, better planetary systems, and the topmost system is called Brahmaloka or Satyaloka. Downwards from the earthly planetary system there are seven lower planetary systems inhabited by the asuras and similar other materialistic living beings.


From Garbhodakasayi Visnu there is expansion of the Ksirodakasayi Visnu, who is the collective Paramätmä(Supersoul in the heart and in every atom) of all living beings. He is called Hari, and from Him all incarnations within the universe are expanded.


One who knows these plenary features of the Personality of Godhead knows Godhead properly, and thus the knower becomes freed from the material conditions of birth, death, old age and disease, as it is confirmed in Bhagavad-gitä, In this sloka the subject matter of Mahä-Visnu is summarized. The Mahä-Visnu lies down in some part of the spiritual sky by His own free will. Thus He lies on the ocean of käraëa, from where He glances over His material nature, and the mahat-tattva is at once created. Thus electrified by the power of the Lord, the material nature at once creates innumerable universes, just as in due course a tree decorates itself with innumerable grown fruits. The seed of the tree is sown by the cultivator, and the tree or creeper in due course becomes manifested with so many fruits. Nothing can take place without a cause. The Kärana Ocean is therefore called the Causal Ocean. Kärana means "causal." We should not foolishly accept the atheistic theory of creation. The description of the atheists is given in the Bhagavad-gitä. The atheist does not believe in the creator, but he cannot give a good theory to explain the creation. Material nature has no power to create without the power of the purusa, just as a prakrti, or woman, cannot produce a child without the connection of a puruña, or man. The puruña impregnates, and the prakrti delivers. We should not expect milk from the fleshy bags on the neck of a goat, although they look like breastly nipples. Similarly, we should not expect any creative power from the material ingredients; we must believe in the power of the puruña, who impregnates prakrti, or nature. Because the Lord wished to lie down in meditation, the material energy created innumerable universes at once, in each of them the Lord lay down, and thus all the planets and the different paraphernalia were created at once by the will of the Lord. The Lord has unlimited potencies, and thus He can act as He likes by perfect planning, although personally He has nothing to do. No one is greater than or equal to Him. That is the verdict of the Vedas.


After the universes come out of Mahä-Visnu, an expansion of His called Garbhodakasayi Visnu enters into the hollow interior of each one and fills it half full of water. Garbhodakasayi Visnu then lies down on this water, floating on a bed made by an expansion of His called Ananta Sesa (Balaram who is the first expansion of Lord Krishna),who appears like a many-headed serpent. From the navel of Garbhodakasayi Visnu a lotus grows; the bud opens, and in the center sits Lord Brahmä, the first created being. He is the engineer of the universe.


Should I buy the New Lotus?

I have $90,000 invested and $120,000 in Savings. Should I go ahead and buy my dream car the 2008 Lotus Elise for $43,000?

Should I buy the New Lotus?
Yes! The Elise has been a great car for Lotus and this is the cars fourth year for sale and reliability has been good. However, I would test drive the car first and make sure you like how it handles as well as it looks. Furthermore, I would recommend considering a lease as cars depreciate. You still have the option to buy it out at the end of the term if you want to keep it. Just make sure the cap cost on the lease is the same as you negotiated for a selling price.
Reply:Now, I don't know your financial situation, and I'm not going to ask. But I would suppose that if you have to ask whether you should buy the car, perhaps the answer is no.





$90,000 invested and $120,000 in savings is a tremendous accomplishment. You're miles ahead of the average American.





But on the other hand, everyone can afford to save more. And if you want to buy a Lotus Elise, remember that it is not for day-to-day usage, but just a car on the side.





There are plenty of people who have net worths of over 1 million who do not have a Lotus Elise, and don't even have primary cars over $40,000.





Obviously, since I know nothing of your income, age, marital status, or other key factors, I can't give a true recommendation. But I can say - you can always save more!





=]
Reply:Gosh, if you can afford it, go for it!
Reply:No, save your money. This car is only useful on the track. It would be terrible daily driver. British cars are not known for reliabilty either. When it breaks, it will be expensive and timely to fix. And bear in mind, auto insurance absolutely will not cover a vehicle used for racing. It is not unreasonable to assume your insurer will investigate a wreck on a track and deny coverage.
Reply:The lotus is a great car for the track, but if you plan to drive around town or use it as a commuter car it's far from the best choice. Look at the Mercedes SL, Jaguar XK, Porsche 911, or Audi R8.


What do you think of Lotus births?

http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=Aqkbxx6f9_rSqK...

What do you think of Lotus births?
Lotus births are beautiful :) One of my sisters had both of her babies lotus style, combined with Hypnobirthing; childbirth in our culture is commonly like that (but doesn't go by the 'lotus' name). She said the births were wonderful and wants to do it again (she also was very calm and had hardly any pain).





For that person saying to get a c-section and an epidural: shut the hell up. Caesareans are very serious surgery that ought to be done only when medically needed. And it has been proven that epidurals can prolong labor and have a negative effect on the baby. So let me say it again: STFU and try learning something before you open your mouth.
Reply:To the midwife, actually cutting the cord is more likely to lead to infection as it is like an open wound. The placenta doesn't smell as it is rubbed with lavender oils and salt. Report It

Reply:I had a lotus birth with my last daughter who is now 8 months old. The difference between her and my first daughter who was not a lotus birth was truly amazing. I HIGHLY recommend lotus birth, and I am happy to answer any questions on it, more info needs to be out there. Melandbrett7@bigpond.com Report It

Reply:interesting idea that i have never heard of. I think for myself, for practical reasons, it wouldn't work very well. i imagine it would be difficult to carry both baby and placenta around while waiting for it to fall away naturally. I think that it's fine for those with religious or spiritual reasons, and a lot of dedication, to do. I think that the positive effects noted are probably related to the fact that these parents are obviously willing to completly dedicate every second of that first bit of time to caring for their newborn. I don't imagine that a babysitter would be comfortable with the situation. It's probably the attention and comfort from being near such a calm, Zen parent that provides the benefits.
Reply:Sounds like a huge hassle for no real benefit.
Reply:Why would anyone do that???????????
Reply:I think it's a very interesting form of birth, but not for me.
Reply:Didn't think much of it nd can't see what benefits it would be to either mother or child
Reply:As a midwife it seems a bit odd and inconvenient to me. Also I can't think of any earthly reason why anyone would want to leave the placenta attached to their baby for several days. It smells and would smell worse by the time it drops off and also it could possibly hinder breastfeeding as the best position for your baby to latch onto the breast is with his tummy against you, this would potentially be quite difficult with approx 600gms of smelly tissue attached to his tummy. I am all for leaving cutting of the cord until it ceases to pulsate, and have done this on many an occasion, once leaving it until the placenta was delivered. There could also be the issue of infection as the cord itself dries and falls of by a gangrenous process. However, I suppose it's a case of whatever floats your boat.
Reply:To me it is too much work, but who am I to frown on anyone's spiritual beliefs. There certainly isn't any reason not to do a lotus birth.
Reply:I wouldn't do that.
Reply:hm-mm i saw this in TV when the placenta was still attached to the baby the thing is you cant do much lay in bed all the time i would get bored
Reply:We also left the umbilical cord attached for a few minutes until the cord stops pulsing and all of the blood has entered the baby's body...otherwise you could deprive the baby of as much as 1/4 of their blood supply. I have never heard of a Lotus birth though and would like to look more into it!!
Reply:Get entonox and a ceasar under epidural if you can- then you might actually enjoy it!


Yes leaving the cord in place has been shown to be beneficial, for a few minutes after the birth, but I could not advocate this.


Like everything it is not worth upsetting yourself over if you can't do this - and there are very good reasons why it can't be done in some cases - time can be of the essence!

How much is the black lotus?

i have the black lotus and i dont know how much to sell for

How much is the black lotus?
Before you try to sell it get it graded. Graded cards always sell for more. Also, it depends on if its Alpha or Beta. Beta Black Lotus is worth more than the Alpha one. I don't know why but it is. Go to eBay and look at finished auctions of Black Lotus and see what price range is the most common.
Reply:72,000,000
Reply:OMG! you have a black lotus? you are one lucky duck! A Black Lotus goes for at least a hundred or two. Trade in that card for a new iPod kiddo! or you could hold on to it for a few years; I'm sure it'll only increase in value. If you want to find the real prices I suggest looking at a Magic the Gathering- card listing.

Which Path in IT Support? Lotus Notes or Unix or Windows?

I am working in the field of IT support for almost 3 years and I m thinking of moving up to the Administration level. Of course I work on Lotus Notes, Windows Admin and tried Unix.


Now I m just thinking of focusing on one of them and going through in-dept but I m not sure about their future.


Please advice.


Thank you

Which Path in IT Support? Lotus Notes or Unix or Windows?
Most larger companies stick with Windows for desktop applications. So if you are looking to stick to desktop support, this is the way to go.





If you are more of a server/web IT person, then windows and linux/unix is the way to go. I work for a company as a web developer, and I use both platforms. We use Windows the IIS platform and asp, asp.NET development...and Unix Solaris or Linux for JSP, J2EE development.

Any recipe to cook puffed lotus seeds?

Southindian recipe for lotus seeds

Any recipe to cook puffed lotus seeds?
• For Raita:


• 1 cup makhane (puffed lotus seeds)


• 2 cups yoghurt


• 1/2 tsp. black salt


• 1/2 tsp. table salt


• 1 tsp. roasted cumin (coarsely ground)


• For the Tarka or Tempering:


• 1/4 tsp. oil


• 1/2 tsp. mustard seeds


• 1/4 tsp. red chilli powder


• For the Garnish:


• 1 tbs. green coriander leaves, chopped





Buy ingredients from a recommended supplier, Spices of India. For more information, see here.





Instructions





1. Dry roast the makhane lightly in an oven or dry fry in a wok or karahi.


2. When cooled, crush coarsely into about 1/4 inch chunks. You can do this by placing them in a kitchen towel and gently beating over it with a rolling pin.


3. Beat the yoghurt lightly with a fork, with black salt, table salt and roasted cumin seeds. Do not use an electric blender as this makes the yogurt a bit too runny.


4. Add makhane to the beaten yogurt and fold them in.


5. Tarka:


6. Heat the oil in a tarka pan/ladle. When smoking hot, add the mustard seeds and chilli powder and quickly add to the yogurt. Mix and serve with an Indian meal, garnished with chopped coriander leaves.

Hi can someone please explain me what is lotus- tree leaves?

whats the difference between lotus-tree leaves and lotus leaves? I know there is one which grows in water, but is there another one which grows from a tree?txs

Hi can someone please explain me what is lotus- tree leaves?
There are two species of lotus with the conspicuous flowers Nelumbo nucifera and Nelumbo lutea, Nelumbonaceae:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelumbo


The lotus tree from the story of Odysseus is named Zizyphus lotus, Rhamnaceae, lives in South-Europe and North-Africa and is also called lotus plum in cause of its edible fruits:


http://pageperso.aol.fr/fmeignant/Zizy.h...





In old pharmacopoeias ( end of 18th century ) you find the name Celtis ( several species ) for lotus tree:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackberry





Fazit: lotus leaves are the leaves of Nelumbo, lotus tree leaves today the leaves of Zizyphus and about 250 years ago the leaves of Celtis or Zizyphus
Reply:The lotus tree (Greek lôtos) was a plant in Greek mythology bearing a fruit that caused a pleasant drowsiness and growing in North Africa. This fruit was reported to be the only food of an island people called the Lotus-Eaters. In Homer’s Odyssey those of Odysseus' men who ate the fruit lost all desire to leave the island and had to be forced away. In another story from Greek mythology, the nymph, Lotis, is turned into a lotus tree.

Why coconut tree and lotus grows near water?

why coconut tree and lotus grows near water

Why coconut tree and lotus grows near water?
Both plants rely on water to disperse seeds, in addition to their other adaptations to life near water.


Coconuts (unlike what you see in the store) have a thick spongy/fiber husk that will float long distances, this also softens the shell so it germinates easily. A lotus has an interesting spongy pod with round seeds that are exposed on the top in small holes. As waves move the pod, the seeds are washed out of the holes so that they germinate.
Reply:I think the lotus is a type of water lily. Coconut trees get a lot of sun, so they need lots of water to replinish lost moisture and produce coconuts.
Reply:Because they both require alot of water to strive in the wild

Any tips on growing lotus plants in dragon pots, either in or outdoors,( no pond): water, soil requirements?

urgently need help, as I just got 2 lotus plants and need to know how to go about growing them: soil/ water treatment, level of water, etc, etc. I can either keep them indoors or outside my house, but must be in a container (any specifications for them?)

Any tips on growing lotus plants in dragon pots, either in or outdoors,( no pond): water, soil requirements?
Lotus plants are heavy feeders (need fertilizer) and should be grown in soil. Lotus can be grown in tubs or large containers as long as the soil is kept very wet by having at least 2-6 inches of water above the soil where they are planted. Lotus plants prefer humidity and will tolerate temperatures into the 100s (116F here last summer and I did get burned leaves but the plants came back).





Thus, Either plant the lotus in a watertight pot and keep the pot constantly full of water, or line your dragon pot with an inner water tight liner, and place the lotus plant and it's pot in the liner. One per dragon pot would be best (unless dragon pots are 50 gallons each). Cover with water. The latter method is better as it will allow some circulation around the roots, and may be easier as you can drain the liner and refill as the water becomes nasty. Also, the water will probably be colonized by mosquitoes.





If your lotus is a hardy lotus, it will go dormant in the winter, and will winter over in zone 4 and above if planted where the roots won't freeze. Although , even in zone 9, may have to bring yours inside if it freezes outside.

Can White or Yellow Lotus be fermented?

is it possible to brew a drink from yellow and white lotus, perhaps with some hops, and if so, what is the best brewing technique?


thanks.

Can White or Yellow Lotus be fermented?
You can't ferment flowers because there is no sugar in them, but you may be able to use them to flavor another fermentable. You could try a varient of some dandelion wine or something. Find yourself a fruit that you think would taste good with them and use that fruit as a base for the wine, then add the lotus flowers into your secondary for flavoring.

Does anyone know where can i find lotus seed in singapore?
Any Chinese store will have have the dried ones, you can cook them with rock sugar and then puree it in the food processor or there tinned varietys, some alone and other with red or black beans, best buy them cook them with the rock sugar or palm sugar , it is best to boil the lotus seeds for 30 minutes and then add the sugar, and if the water is cloudy or a scum has risen drain some off add more water just to cover and then the sugar, watch it and turn it down to a simmer so as not to carmelize the sugar, is should be thicken before you puree, if not add some cornstarch or tapioca starch in a slurry to bring it together, let it cool for 30 minute and then puree it. I would use 1 full bag of lotus seeds and 2 cups of water to start, the in the sugar (1 cup) stage just make sure the seeds are covered in liquid.

Can you lease a lotus?

I know its a stupid question, but since lotus is such a high end car do they offer a leasing option or do you just have to buy it?

Can you lease a lotus?
My family OWNS a ferrari/masserati/lotus Dealership in Salt Lake City. Ferrarisales.com





Yes, you can lease a Lotus. Call your local dealership and find out there rates, compare first, then call. You can call the dealership from the website I listed and find out their rates. It all depends on the model, year and condition. They are quick little suckers and on a track, they can beat a ferrari or lambo on the turns, of course not on the straight aways, but they are rad. No cup holders though, and you sit so close to the ground you can feel the rocks pop up.
Reply:honsetly, if you want one, you can pick up a used one for a really decent price. i've seen newer ones in the teens on e-bay. as soon as my car is paid off, i'm buying a lotus, used of course!





as far as leasing goes, i think you can do it. according to my local dealers website, leasing is an option, but who knows who it is through. i think it is dependent on your credit and the financial company.
Reply:you can rent any type of car there are car rental companies that only rent high end sports cars some dealers even rent demo models for a couple of days it helps them sell the car to an undecided buyer.
Reply:you can get a used one for about 35k...i was going to trade my gto in for one...but backed out at the last minute....at the lotus dealership in richmond...you could lease it...but i think it was like 5 something a month....
Reply:Check their website

Is the korean iron lotus real?

Reply:wow, ur retarted. it was completely fake.


How to be sure that some person is true votary of the Lotus Sutra?

I have translated the Lotus Sutra, the core of the teachings of the Buddha. However, I am not recognised as true votary of the Lotus Sutra. so, is true votary of the Lotus Sutra somebody else or there are many people that have such quality.


How can you discern the real preacher of the Lotus Sutra and how can you be sure that it is the right person? Why I am not recognised as such?

How to be sure that some person is true votary of the Lotus Sutra?
If the lotus sutra is locked into your heart and mind, I do not see why you cannot be a true votary of it. Perhaps it would be best for you to consult the head monk of a Mahayana monistary. You may have to demonstrate your knowledge to the sangha for them to discern your level of understanding. It takes wisdom attained through meditation to be able to discern who speaks the true dharma- when the wisdom is there, certainty will also be there.





It seems as though your mind has not accepted you to be ready yet, from your words; it is your mind which will recognise this ultimately. If you consult me I would be happy to discuss the dharma with you.

Does anyone have any experience with a lotus elise?

I was thinking about buying a Lotus Elise, but I have never driven one or seen one up close ( we dont have a Lotus dealer where I live ) any way I was thinking about making a trip tomorrow to look at and drive on and maybe buy it. I will be useing it as my every day driver, just wondering if anyone else out there has one and if so is it practical for every day comute.

Does anyone have any experience with a lotus elise?
I have driven one a few times, and I can tell you a couple of things you might like to know. One, I'm 6'1" and found that the seat had awful lower back support. Two, the pedals are so close together that I had to take my shoes off to drive it. Granted I wear size 14 shoes, and I know that european sports cars always have the pedals really close together, but I drive a Saab and don;t have that problem. I know that although it is an exotic and fun car, but I don't know if I would want to drive one everyday.





Have you considered an Aston Martin?
Reply:Hey, rich kid... You're not impressing anyone... It's a beautiful car to be sure... But, the insurance'll kill you...
Reply:Ive worked on one and its had alot of problems...not a very reliable car. and its uderpowered fo a lotus...parts are also expensive...although it is a kick in the as s to drive...if you got the cash and dont mind driving a car thats gonna be in the shop allot..go for it.

Since there is no lotus option I'll come here due to power plant?

My father is looking to buy a lotus elise, what are some major problems that they are known for?? I know they are incredible handling machines but the power plant is the "celica" engine, and the bay is kinda tight.. any power pulling ideas without a swap, and turbo would be tough due to the sq.in. issue in the bay

Since there is no lotus option I'll come here due to power plant?
Before you add power to such a ride-


Learn to use what you have.


You will have almost 80 (most likely more) more HP then a Miata and I think about 500 pounds less weight. They are cars for winding roads, not the 1/4 mile. Quick off the line, but not a rocket ship.


The Lotus cars are finely balance automobiles. More then likely you will make a great ride a poor ride.
Reply:last thing you want to do is ruin the powerband and make it peakier.


I have bought "Buddhism for Today" and "Lotus Sutra" to have good destiny. They came with no support. Why?

Buddhist gave their vow to Buddha to protect the owner of the Lotus Sutra. However, people from Rissho Kosei Kai refused to do that. I have prayed one year to attain karma for such books but I did not receive any support from Buddhist.


So, people from Rissho Kosei Kai are no better than criminals. They sell false books and lie people. They ruin people's lives.


Therefore, Buddhism is big stupid and evil religion. it is connected with politics, power and greed. They want to ruin the lifes of persons that do not agree completelly with them.


I would like to report Rissho Kosei Kai for great criminal and violating the principles of Buddhism.


True votary of the Lotus Sutra is not respected. Such evil people respect just influental people and seek for their money.


They are fake followers of false faith. I had contacts with them and I have seen their true corrupted nature.


They are a company full of liers and criminals.

I have bought "Buddhism for Today" and "Lotus Sutra" to have good destiny. They came with no support. Why?
That could be true. I don't really know, but there are probably far more false preachers in any religion than there are spiritual good ones. There are probably both true and false teachings in any religion. Therefore, I feel safer relying on my own self and my personal instincts and intuitions than I do on these manipulators who pretend they know what they are doing. Trust yourself. Be kind to yourself. Be true to yourself. Forgive yourself for not being perfect. Feel your anger towards these people, but try to let it run its course. Then you can ignore them and they will have no power over you. Once you have learned all you can from them, they are not worth your time or energy. I hope you can resolve this and be calmer.


(Sorry I am crazy today, as my husband's Ex has him and my stepson running around fixing stuff over there, like he has been doing for the past week.) It's not like we don't have things that need work over here. Sigh!
Reply:Buddhism's a philosophy. That whole premise of destiny is bullshit, anyway. Make your own way in life... don't let books decide it for you.


Who else still uses Lotus 1-2-3?

I've used it at work for years, but also use Microsoft Excel for some things. I have been informed by one of my co-workers that Lotus is sooooo not cool anymore and nobody uses ancient software.

Who else still uses Lotus 1-2-3?
It is old but is used by people who were effectively brought up on it and so do not want to switch. Many of these people have tried to switch but are so used to it that they quickly go back and swear by it. I have occasional use for it with some old spreadsheets but do everything new on Excel.
Reply:never heard of lotus. perhaps it isnt cool that is why they moved on to making cars instead...maybe the 1-2-3 sounds like a math problem..Excel sounds better anyways right?...


How can I migrate Lotus Notes email to outlook?

Lotus Notes ver 6.5


MS Outlook (any version)

How can I migrate Lotus Notes email to outlook?
You can't directly migrate it....





You need Domino Outlook Connector! Check the link below.





Use this to link your lotus email to MS Outlook. You can only get the Inbox, Calander, Notes etc from the Lotus in your MS Outlook PST.





To be able to transfer the Lotus Archives:


1%26gt; Create a New PST for Storing Email...equivalent to Archive.


2%26gt;You need to move all emails from lotus Archive to Lotus Inbox and then those will be visible in MS Outlook Inbox. Then move these emails to the new PST u just created above.





Repeat the process and you are all done.





U also need to remeber that if you use MS Outlook, u still have to occassionally log in to Lotus, to check for the password expiry messages as the connector wont help you with this one.





More information is provided in the Domino Connector Help Page. Its really simple and you wont have any problem setting it up. :)





Hope this helps!

Need help! Is a Lotus Strat style guitar (fender) any good and how much do they normally run??

My daughter is looking at someone selling a Lotus Strat Style Fender Guitar. Is this a good one? It comes with everything you need to get started. I just want to make sure that is is a good one. Can someone help??

Need help! Is a Lotus Strat style guitar (fender) any good and how much do they normally run??
It's a cheap knock-off of a strat. Should be around 50 to 80 bucks. You can get a Squier Strat for 150 - 200 new that is a lot better. Any used guitar you should have looked at by somebody who has experience.
Reply:have a look at ebay.... there's a few out there for sale - will give you an idea..:-)


We have FIAT,FORD,LOTUS and NISSAN.?

Can you think of a rhyme or saying which uses the Letters in order, of most major car manufacturers? FIAT = Fix It Again Tam, FORD = Fox Or Repair Daily, LOTUS = Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious and NISSAN = Nothing Is So $hit As Nissan. I bet there are a few more out there.


Cheers

Did anyone hear of lotus cars using honda engines in the future????????????

i know they currently use the toyota 2zz-ge in their lineup.





that would be interesting....





any proof of the honda engine in lotus cars tho?

Did anyone hear of lotus cars using honda engines in the future????????????
no not me, I didn't hear that
Reply:First I've heard of it. But considering that Toyota isn't doing much with small performance cars these days, it wouldn't surprise me if the current engine design is stagnating, and Honda (or Mazda) would be the obvious replacement.





There were some grey-market imported Elises...track-only, IIRC...which were brought into the US prior to official importation which were sold with Honda engines. Or at least, they were advertised for sale. I'm not 100 percent sure any were actually brought in.





A discussion of those early gray-market Elises is here:


http://elisetalk.com/forums/showthread.p...





TL:DR version: None of them were imported LEGALLY for road use. Even if they managed to get registered, no one can be 100 percent sure their car won't get confiscated and/or crushed.

Reply:i would love if they did so.
Reply:I wish they will, but they won't. They use the Toyota Celica engine right now.
