Could you explain the difference between knickers and breeks? (With photos??)
Keith postedYou are a very wicked man . But, nothing loathe and always up for a challenge I offer the following pic of a charming young lady wearing tweed breeks and shooting jacket. Unless she's a vey generous and particularly friendly sort, her knickers will remain a matter of speculation!Could you explain the difference between knickers and breeks? (With photos??)
Thank you, very kind, Mine's a pint.
Col. B., When I was in grammer school (Grades 1 thru 8) , in the Fall and Winter, I often wore trousers that ended at my knee with elastic. They were referred to as knickers, and were usually cordaroy material. When I walked rapidly they made a sound and I was often called "whistle britches". We also have the term knickers for under pants, but it is often referred to as " getting into them". Just a different terminology depending on which side of the pond you are on. Mr. Wolters' were the type that ended at his knee and he wore them on the outside! Lord only knows what he had on underneath! He enjoyed being "different".
When judging HRC test I could tell which handlers were Wolters trainees, they sent their dogs on a double tweet, tweet, and would often use the same sound to change direction. I have had great pleasure over the years with the people and their dogs that I have met and it has been with great regret that I can no longer physcally have the ability to run my dog and to judge others running theirs. I truly miss the association with those that have so much inteligence, both human and particularly dogs. It is a great bunch we have over here, i hope you have the same on your side.

Doctor Who Christmas Special Photos!
None of these particularly spoilery – but if you want to be completely surprised, you may want to skip these recently released set photos from the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas Special. We see both the Doctor (Matt Smith) and in his new companion (Jenna-Louise Coleman) in period dress. As well as the Doctor's allies from A Good Man Goes to War, Madame Astra (Neve McIntosh), the Silurian, and her "assistant" Jenny (Catrin Stewart). As well as Sontaran Nurse, Commander Strax (Dan Starkey) we also see two time Doctor, Richard E. Grant. Grant played a version of the 10th Doctor back in … Continue reading

I have a question about the current draw from the arduino 5v pin. Is it true that i can pull around 450mA from that pin(Usb powered, arduino uno itself use around 50mA or something close to that, so that leaves me 450mA IF all the digital pins are turned low).Thanks in advance !
But my first question is why use transistors? I hooked each layer up to a specific pin and when I want the layer off I just set the pin to HIGH. Is there an advantage to using transistors?

Clinton Documents: Striking the Right Tone After Bush v. Gore
The latest batch of documents released by the Clinton Presidential Library offers insights into the White House's effort to strike the right tone after the Supreme Court ruled in George W. Bush's favor, resolving the dispute over the 2000 presidential election.
Drafts of the speech that President Bill Clinton gave on Dec. 14 show a round-the-clock editing process as the president's advisers considered how to encourage the country to accept the result while still noting flaws in the electoral system.
Typed notes suggest having Mr. Clinton say that too much was spent on TV ads and not enough on voting machines while noting that Vice President Al Gore got more votes than any presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1984 – two ideas that did not make it into the speech.
An early version of the speech calls for Mr. Clinton to say that he will arrange a meeting with Mr. Bush. But in the editing process, an adviser suggests adding that Mr. Clinton will congratulate the president-elect and invite him to the White House to discuss the transition.
The same draft also includes the suggestion that Mr. Clinton "commend" instead of "congratulate" Mr. Gore after his defeat. Also, wording that describes Mr. Gore as an extraordinary partner was amended to note that the vice president had been "a close friend."
Different drafts are scattered throughout this file, but the most interesting one starts on page 10.

- Description
Mystic Seaport: The Museum of America and the Sea is a great place to visit whenever you are in Connecticut. The seaport is a replica of an 1800's New England coastal town. Visitors get a chance to explore the wooden ships that are moored at the docks, and to see how a seaport supported the ships and crews.
While you are visiting the seaport, I highly recommend stopping by the shipyard to watch the restoration of the Charles W. Morgan. I also recommend stopping by the planetarium for a star show or for lessons in celestial navigation.

Wineke: Are we really worst in race achievement gap results?
Well, this ought to be embarrassing: The National Assessment of Educational Progress has looked at the gap between African American and white American students and determined the difference between black school achievement and white school achievement is greater in Wisconsin than in any other state in the union.
When educational achievement is measured in terms of reading and math, we are the worst in the nation, behind Mississippi. Think about that: We rank below Mississippi.
What all this means, I'm not exactly sure. I suppose it might be that white kids in Mississippi don't learn very much, either, so the achievement gap is less pronounced. That could be it, but I don't think I'd take too much comfort in that explanation.
Or, I suppose we could blame it all on Milwaukee. Except that when high school graduation rates are compared, Madison has a greater gap between black and white than Milwaukee.
I don't know how we compare with Mississippi. I don't want to ever have to compare Wisconsin to Mississippi.
As much as I'd like to blame it all on Gov. Scott Walker, it is painfully obvious that the problem didn't start in 2011 when he took office.
My real problem is that no one outside the educational establishment and a handful of African American leaders seems to care. No one seems to see it as a crisis that must involve every citizen of the state. And that might be indicative of an even scarier problem -- is it just possible that Wisconsin is not the great state we have lulled ourselves into thinking it is?
I mean, we did manage to elect Walker governor not once but twice if you count the recall -- and how can you not count the recall? In his first campaign, he promised to end high-speed rail in the state and curb benefits for state employees. In the recall, he gloried in having achieved those dubious ends.
I don't blame the governor for setting us on a new path toward mediocrity; I do blame us for endorsing that path. And for providing him with a Republican Senate and Assembly to join him in rolling back every policy that set Wisconsin apart from mediocrity.
Our government is our creation. It reflects who we are. We might try thinking about that.
Our schools are our creation, too. They reflect who we are as a people, what we value, what we strive to achieve. And if we're sanguine about having a racial achievement gap that places us behind Mississippi and every other state in the union, well that says something about our values.
And what it says is not very encouraging.

FOOD & DRINK | wedding inspiration | Striped Paper Straws Are So Cute, Especially Inside of Specialty Soda Pop!
So, as usual, I was looking for more really cute, chic details for my upcoming nuptials, and I think I've found yet another one worth sharing.
Striped paper straws. A crowd favorite, dating all the way back to childhood. I can't be the only one who blew bubbles in my chocolate milk when a wee babe. I'm totally invested (mentally, we'll see about budget-ly) in these cutie-patooties.
I found those super cute ones above over at Design is Mine, and I didn't just get excited, I pretty much flipped out. After this long, it still amazes me how aggressively the adrenaline within me can race throughout my body the moment I see something as insignificant as a paper straw. I think it has something to do with all the colors and choices. If there's one thing I love, it is having options. (They are also my downfall; I am indecisive as a rule. But we all love the things that are not the best for us, so I'd say that makes me normal. At least… that's what I tell myself when I go to bed at night.) Anyway, I choose not to question it. Especially since, when I go with it, I always end up in my happy place!
It might interest you to know that the person responsible for the photographic bliss above is food/prop stylist Paul Lowe, and it might interest you even more to know that he has an incredibly addictive blog, called Sweet Paul. Oh, how I heart him.
Okay, so we've established one fact so far: paper straws rule. Especially colorful, striped ones. But now we need something deserving of said straws, right? How about THIS…
Want to get your hands on some colorful pop for your big day? Project Wedding – which is where I found the awesomeness immediately above – suggests BevMo. Located in CA, they've got a wide selection of these super cute specialty sodas (and if you don't live in CA, you can buy 'em online – gotta love the internet). You can also check in your local gourmet food shop for these uniquely joyful-looking drinks. So, they're around! You just may have to do a little searching depending on where you're located. :)
Next are some awesome pics by Cindy Ensley, which I discovered via the lovely Audrey of Urbanic + Parcel Post. (My original description of Audrey involved "the pretty paper pusher," but I thought it made her sound like some sort of fetish drug dealer, which seemed like a bad thing. So "the lovely" it is. And lovely, you are, Audrey!)
I know, SO cute. Word on the 'net is that you can find these babies over at Kikkerland. It's a great source for stuff like this; I visit the place quite a bit. Not to mention, pretty much everyone I credited within this here post suggests the same. Aside from Kikkerland, you can check out Pipii's Marketplace, which carries the exact same brand.
In other news, check out Cindy's save the dates -
Absolutely darling, wouldn't you agree? And totally DIY-licious. You'll probably be familiar with her supplies - she used one of Martha's punch sets, kraft paper (you already know the feelings I have for kraft paper), some AWESOME rubber stamps and white embossing powder. See, all it takes are a few simple tools, and a lot of imagination and creativity!
Okay, just one more pretty picture of my new love:
Found these cherry red beauties over on Jordan Ferney's Oh Happy Day! I'm sure you could figure out a way to work those stunners into a Valentine's Day party, or even better, a love-themed wedding. Though that's what all weddings should be themed. Oh sappy me; that's just how I like to end things. On a sap note!
Seacrest out.

Watch the Glory 6 Istanbul Pre-Fight Press Conference
- Written by Dave Walsh
Glory 6 Istanbul is rapidly-approaching and I assume that you've already plopped down your $20 here on LiverKick to watch it, right? If not, you really probably should because Daniel Ghita vs. Gokhan Saki is one of the biggest Heavyweight battles that the sport of Kickboxing can produce. If you aren't hyped up enough as it is, take a moment out of your day (more like an hour) and sit bit with some sort of fine beverage (I have a coconut water, but I don't blame you if you don't like it) and watch the Glory 6 Istanbul press conference.

KK, you could also turn on the shot feedback option to get a good feel for the jumpshot release.
I did have 2 plays last night where I literally dropped the controller and walked away screaming I was so pumped up.
how do i do this?
Someone teach me how to run plays, call plays etc. All I know is the pick and roll, but since I don't have an outside jumper they don't respect the pick.
I start hitting threes like noones business. 3 straight 3s with 3 defensive stops. My fricker of a coach decides to pull me so i cant get the 10 pt objective.
quote:I just bought Jordan's dunk package. With this package and a high enough vertical and dunk rating, you can dunk from the free throw line. I did it for the first time last night. Literally took off with my foot on the free throw line and dunk the shite out of the ball. Saved the replay. Nearly tipped my chair over when it happened. Glad I didn't have a kinect because I would have gotten a technical for screaming trash talk at the CPU.

How freaking many executive orders do they think they're entitled to???? The arrogant bastard thinks he's god or something.
How freaking many executive orders do they think they're entitled to???? The arrogant bastard thinks he's god or something.
But it isn't fair that congress can't pass anything because of the GOP.....All these great ideas are getting voted down.
My Father,My Friend,My teacher,and now My Angel~ 04/21/1956-03/21/2011 You will always be missed. I hope to learn half of the stuff you knew.

Hate to bring up "W" again but if you take a look at that administration,you'll find this is nothing new. I don't like it anymore than you do.
But as I have been saying all along, if gun owners don't make strong effort in keeping guns out of the hands of felons and crazies , then sooner or later the anti-gun lobby is going to get the ear of the public and the politicians. The NRA stance of more guns on the street is not a sufficient answer and more in the way of sanity has got to come out of them. If you want to keep your rights then, you must exercise your responsibilities.
I don't want to feed an ugly dog!
There isnt an Executive Order that can be written to override the Constitution....BUT the current POTUS thinks he is the smartest guy in the room and is going to push things to the Nth letter of the law until he gets stopped by either Congress or the SCOTUS or both....make no mistake he will try, because he has a sympathetic media, a sheeple of an electorate and control of the Senate...he is also on the verge of being able to shape the court with activist jurists...the American public has no one to blame but themselves for letting it get this far
It will be interesting to see what they come up with. My guess is that all he can really do by executive order is make sure that the laws we already have are enforced, just like the NRA has been asking for a while now. I'm sure they can also put up more hoops for us to jump through in order to buy guns and ammo. They can most likely make you take responsibility for keeping your guns safely out of the hands of mentally ill friends and family, in other words - punish you for not being responsible. Not long ago the supreme court ruled on the 2nd amendment and the federal government cannot make laws banning guns. States and local governments can and most likely will however.

I think they expected people to roll over and take any gun laws they passed, because of the high emotions. However with push back from the American people they are having to go with their last resort plan. With executive orders the congress can override or courts can overturn.

Recently I've had time to work on some C++11 library additions for libstdc++ which had been brewing in my Git tree for months.
std::forward_list meets the C++11 allocator container requirements now.
std::scoped_allocator_adaptor is 99% complete now. I'm trying to provide
std::this_thread::sleep_*() and a high-resolution
std::system_clock even when GCC isn't built with --enable-libstdcxx-time (with huge thanks to Roland McGrath for help from glibc.) I need to write tests for my implementations of

Ariz. inmate makes Valentine's escape
An Ariz. jail inmate escaped by climbing two walls and crawling through razor wire and was reportedly meeting his sweetheart on Valentine's Day
Associated Press
PHOENIX — An Arizona jail inmate who escaped by climbing two walls and crawling through razor wire and was reportedly meeting his sweetheart on Valentine's Day is back in custody.
The Pinal County Sheriff's office says in a release that inmate Joseph Andrew Dekenipp was caught a few hours after he escaped Friday from the county detention center.
The office says he would undergo treatment for serious cuts he got from the wire before being returned to the lockup.
The Arizona Republic reports that the 40-year-old Dekenipp was arrested without incident after he arrived at a Coolidge saloon and grill where he was to meet his girlfriend. Coolidge is about 35 miles southeast of Phoenix.
Dekenipp has been in jail since his arrest Jan. 10 on suspicion of vehicle theft, trafficking in stolen property, unlawful flight, and driving on a suspended license.
Officials say he is now facing an escape charge.

By Carlie Kollath Wells/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – As of today, the BancorpSouth Arena officially is in charge of the neighboring BancorpSouth Conference Center.
The Tupelo Coliseum Commission, the governing agency of the arena, on Wednesday approved a management contract that holds TCC responsible for all operations of the conference center. The vote came a day after another city board – Tupelo Redevelopment Agency – terminated its lease contract with Master Hospitality to run the conference center.
Master Hospitality owns the Hilton Garden Inn location in Tupelo and has run the conference center since it opened. However, TRA, which oversees Fairpark, said the company was behind on its lease payments so the company signed a $514,500 settlement to end the contract.
Yet, don't expect to see any major changes at the conference center this month. The arena is paying Master Hospitality to continue running the center's operations in January.
And Todd Hunt, director of the arena, told the Coliseum Commission on Wednesday that the caterer and food service employees were staying on this month in order for the arena to be able to honor all of the previous bookings.
Hunt said he plans to put out a request for bids for a sole caterer for the conference center, similar to the setup at the center now.
There was some discussion at Wednesday's meeting about having a list of approved caterers, similar to how the arena operates. However, Hunt said it logistically makes more sense to have one caterer for the conference center for the remainder of the fiscal year.
The employees' status at the conference center remains uncertain. Representatives were unavailable Wednesday at the center and at Hilton Garden Inn to comment.
Hunt and Scott Reed, chairman of the commission, both said they expect to save money by using current arena employees to handle operations at the conference center.
"We know there is synergy," Reed said. "If we are asking the (arena) staff to step up and take on more responsibilities, there's a cost to that. Less cost to that than adding a whole new group of people? Probably so."

This still doesn't give us turn by turn navigation, nor does it show your current location and route on the lock screen. It also does utilize your contacts addresses, which is huge for me.i would rather have my destination off by 1/2 mile and have those feature I spoke about included, rather than use the current google maps. I would've loved all of apples features with the old google maps app, but I understand there were licensing issues.
Wow...not a smart thing to do if you live in a city with roads and streets reserved for buses, or God forbid, LRT. You know Siri sucks when you find yourself druving on train tracks playing chicken with a train.
Forget that, if I am in my car, and I start driving on transit only roads, it is a criminal offence. Get it together iDrones...
Another fail for Apple. Hopefully, there will be a jailbreak for iOS6 to allow...oh wait...nevermind.
I see why Fandroids call you guys sheep, because you believe anything and everything... Apple Maps is pretty awesome, and I use it almost everyday and it never steers me wrong. the 6 images of bad mapping that we be seen on the web hardly constitute that it's a crappy app. Although StreetView is pretty awesome, there no a actual reason to use anything but Apple Maps, since you don't have to Jump through hoops to integrate it with your contacts at all. but I will use both for it's different strengthens and weaknesses.

A deep freeze has been gripping the Midwest, the South and the Northeast for the last week. Snow and ice storms are forecast across parts of the deep South from South Carolina to Louisiana. How cold is it? With howling winter winds whipping the snow, weather forecasters said it felt like 52 degrees below zero in Bowbells, North Dakota.
"The air freezes your nostrils, your eyes water and your chest burns from breathing. And that's just going from the house to your vehicle," said Jane Tetrault, who lives in Bowbells. When Tetrault got to her vehicle, the tires were frozen!
Meanwhile, in Florida, it's so cold that iguanas have been seen falling from trees. Experts say the cold-blooded reptiles couldn't move because of the icy air. The lizards lose their grip on tree limbs when temperatures fall into the 40s or below.
Saving Strawberries
Iguanas aren't the only things suffering from Florida's unusual weather. The Sunshine State's strawberry farmers are trying to keep their crops from dying as temperatures in some places plunge as low as 25 degrees. Even if farmers succeed in saving most of their berry crop, they haven't been able to save them all. So strawberry lovers will be paying higher prices for the fruit in the next few weeks.
"I'm really worried that there won't be a lot of strawberries for Valentine's Day," David Spivey told the New York Times. "We haven't picked [berries] in three days. I can't tell you when we'll pick again," he said.
Too Cold for Lawmakers
The weather news isn't much better in other regions. Icy roads are causing accidents in Indiana. Giant icicles hang from roofs and cars. More than 500 flights were kept from taking off at airports in Chicago, Illinois. Schools were closed in several states, including Nebraska, Minnesota, South Dakota and Alabama. Missouri state lawmakers cancelled yesterday's session because of the weather.
"It's brutally cold," said meteorologist Tony Zaleski. Unfortunately for residents in freezing states, not much relief is in sight for the next few days. The bitter winter weather will continue through the weekend.

Discussion Our smallest Buteo hawk. Unobtrusive and easily overlooked: perches for long periods in woodland cover. In flight, note broad and rather pointed wings and medium-length tail. Sexes are similar; rare dark morph exists.


text: What a way to kick off the weekend as we just got our hands on 4 clips from George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead that feature some pretty huge moments from the film. Before you read on, light up a match and get ready for some "eye-popping" action! The plot involves inhabitants of an isolated island off the North American coast who find their relatives rising from the dead to eat their kin. The leaders of the island feud over whether or not to kill their reanimated relatives or preserve them in hopes of finding a cure. Romero's latest zombie flick premiering on VOD, XBOX Live, Playstation and Amazon on April 30th before taking over theaters on May 28 from Magnet Releasing.

Reviews of this property
Perfect stay - the flat is cosy and nice. You will find everything you need. And the staff also nice. All in all - spend some time there, feel home and enjoy Budapest.
looks nice, if you can not sleep you the number of times that the elevator goes up and down counting sheep instead.
ziet er mooi uit, als je niet kunt slapen kun je het aantal keren dat de lift op en neer gaat tellen, i. p.v. schaapjes.
Reviews for this host's other properties
We had a perfect stay in Pals apartment. Very close to everything. Nice and clean. very friendly reception of us.
The only thing I missed where some clothes hangers or an other way to pack out your clothes. So bring your own hangers.
My best recommandation.
We had unforgettable trip ! It was great, we enjoyed with our staying in Budapest . Apartment has excellent location , very comfortable, clean . Our hosts were very friendly, attentive and careful ! Thank you so much!
This is a fantastic vacation apartment!
The location is central, the views are stunning, and the flat is well appointed,
comfortable and extremely convenient.
Also: Pal's team was friendly and highly user-friendly, a big plus
in the overall experience.
My entire family loved it and we have fondly talked about it since then.
We will definitely want to stay there again when we return to Budapest.
Everything was great, thank you!
A very pleasant stay. The appartment was great and the view magnificent. Situated in the middle of everything :)
Great apartment at a magnificent location. The square in front of the apartment is lively with many bars and restaurants present in it's surroundings. It is also well located in relation to different tourist-sites and subway-stations. In advance we were a bit worried about late night noise (basilica-clocks e.o.), but it turned out not to be a problem at all. Nice to have reception available juist a few houses down the road. The were very helpfull there.
The appartment is very spacious and well-equiped. Beds are allright although mine squeaked horribly at every move. The other beds were just fine though. We had some problems getting a hot shower a couple of times. Somebody should fix the central heating boiler. But we managed to restart the boiler ourselfes :). The building has a small elevator, which is helpfull with luggage.
All in all this appartment is great value for money

Influenza, or Flu, is a serious respiratory illness. It is easily spread from person to person and can lead to severe complications, even death. If you think you may have the flu - do not come to work or go to class and expose others.
We ALL are at risk for getting and spreading the flu. Having the flu may keep you home from work or school. If you have asthma or other lung diseases, you are at higher risk of developing complications from the flu.
Each year in the U.S., influenza and its related complications result in an estimated 226,000 hospitalizations and anywhere from around 3,000 to 49,000 deaths.
Flu illness impacts your daily life by
The Flu Can Be Fatal In ..
Many people who become sick with the flu say it is like being hit by a truck. This decrease in quality of life, the shifting nature of the virus, and the danger of life-threatening complications, combine to make the flu a major public health problem.
If a person has a mild case, the flu may seem a lot like an ordinary cold. But more often, symptoms appear suddenly, and may include:
Most people recover from the flu within one or two weeks, but others, especially the elderly, may feel weak for a long time even after other symptoms go away.

This beany chicken and rice recipe is easily baked and is ready for dinner in just an hour.
Pat Y. Shares her Recipe "I was told that drinking water with your meal will help settle your food, and it worked for me! Reliable recipes such as this one also helped me."
High in vitamin A; low fiber
If you're looking for low-fiber, low-residue options after surgery, omit the celery and
onion and cut the green bean amount in half for a simple casserole that can bring
you comfort.

text: Am working through force fetch with a 10 month old female. She's got the concept down great, lunges for the bumper when I say fetch and is a very willing student but promptly works the bumper around to hold by the end. I don't dare have a rope tied to it or she'll hold the rope, only use a plain bumper so we don't have that issue too. We've been working daily for 3 weeks on proper mouth placement and she continues to do it. If I remove the bumper and put it back in properly she'll hold by the middle as long as I ask. Should I be concerned? Just continue gritting it out with her? Suggestions?

I know you watched the end of the game yesterday and saw Wayne's 27 yard catch that was instrumental in the acolts winning. Sorry but Wayne's been doing that all year, he's been a one man highlight reel for Espn every Momday.
Best catch I saw Cj make yesterday was that one handed catch down the sideline.mof course what everyone ignored was he made the catch one handed because he was pushing off with the other, lol
None of these losses are Calvin's fault so to hold his team's performance against him or whatever is just dumb.
Maybe I'm blind but I don't see a push off.
Also, Wayne was non existent against a beat up secondary. #1 receiver alright.
Cecil Shorts. most long touchdowns with some average qb play

This is the best. Calvin's yards don't count because they're "mostly in junk time"
He has no idea what he's talking about nor is what he's saying make them not count.
I think Jordy Nelson is the best WR because he plays in a state that starts with the letter W.
That's how logical that CJ crap was.
CJ has not been better than Marshall or Green this is a joke
I still think CJ is the best WR in the NFL, followed by AJ Green.
And Roddy White is overrated.

Helen Keller: Her Life in Pictures
by George Sullivan
The fascinating life of one of the most popular historical figures is told through images — most rarely, if ever, seen — from the American Foundation for the Blind and The Perkins School for the Blind. The images trace Keller's life from birth, to childhood with Annie Sullivan in the cottage, to college, and on to her many years as a dedicated social activist and spokesperson. We get a glimpse of her sense of humor, her experiences as a lecturer on the vaudeville circuit, her many pets, and her last quiet years in Connecticut.

Cycling fashion designers have a knack for over-complicating seemingly simple things.
Take, for example, any clothing item created by Outlier. Each garment, while beautiful and functional, is also accompanied by a short novel, or novella, describing the epic journey each article of clothing takes from being just a spark in the brain of a designer to becoming a $144 shirt.
As someone who rides a bike, but doesn't want to be easily identified as the guy who showed up on a bike, I prefer simple clothes that I can wear for a ride around town or to work in or to simply sit down on a patio in.
Certainly, I could just throw on any of the cotton t-shirts I've accumulated simply from being a guy (it's a well-known fact that not only do guys purchase a lot of t-shirts, or get them free with beer, but we also develop strong bonds to these shirts as they fade and decay). Yet, if you've stepped outside recently, like I did this morning in 26 C heat with 100% humidity, then you've probably experienced the way cotton absorbs sweat, holds on to it for dear life and weighs you down more than a bullet-proof vest. Heck, even the hardest of hard-core rappers opt for lighter upper torso vestments in this weather.
Strangely unhappy with using natural fibres for the creation of clothing, we've also turned our attention to the limited resources of our planet in order to create supposedly "high-tech" fabrics that we adorn with countless pockets, zippers and reflective embellishments. In order to be certain these fabrics are suitably "high-tech" we also douse them in scary-sounding chemicals in order to repel the natural processes our bodies undertake to cool us down when Mother Nature decides to turn up the thermostat. Yet still, all of the science in the world has a hard time keeping plastic clothing from smelling worse than a TTC streetcar on the first really hot day of summer.
After systematically eliminating both cotton and polyester from my list of ideal fabrics for summer cycling and living I was left with nothing to wear except for the piece of paper I had made this short list on.
That's when I discovered Modrobes and their recently released Euca Tee.
You see, this is no ordinary t-shirt. The Euca Tee is made from 100% eucalyptus trees, a plant indigenous to Australia and the preferred snack of cute and cuddly koala bears, an animal introduced to "the West" in Jackie Chan's Criterion contribution First Strike.
Other clothing manufacturers, like Patagonia, have been using Tencel, a branded eucalyptus lyocell fibre in outdoor athletic gear for some time now. The claims made by the manufacturers are quite bold and should instantly perk the ears of anyone who hates wrinkly clothes, detests carrying their sweat with them and abhors bacteria responsible for the terrible stink some people associate with "avid cyclists."
Since the above describes me almost to a "t," I decided to purchase a Modrobes Euca Tee and put their claims to the test. In fact, let's take a look at those claims firsthand:
"Like wool for summer weather the Euca tee is great for keeping you comfortable in hot or humid weather."-SSD
The Euca tee does everything a performance garment should but naturally and without actually being a performance garment…it's just better than cotton and polyester at working with your body's natural comfort.
The Euca tee is made from 100% eucalyptus trees and is certified as an environmentally clean fabric by numerous auditors.
The fabric absorbs moisture away from the body into the fibres and releases it depending on the climate conditions which keeps your skin dry and stops bacteria from forming. Unlike all polyester technical fabric eucalyptus does this naturally and without any added chemicals.
*no smell
*quick dry
*wrinkle free
*super soft
My girlfriend, also described to a "t" above the above, received a Euca Tee, too, because I am just that great of a boyfriend. Over the past week we put these t-shirts through the paces, with those "paces" being the wearing of a t-shirt as you would normally and doing so while occasionally on our bicycles.
Referring to the above list of claims, or "highlights," our first impression of the t-shirts was that they were, in fact, super soft. On a softness scale I'd rank these t-shirts between a box full of kittens and an even larger box full of koosh balls. The fabric is also thinner than I'm used to. In fact, these t-shirts nearly give you the feeling of being topless yet will allow you to still order fast food indoors. Basically a win-win situation in the summer heat.
After riding our bicycles around town my girlfriend and I both managed to work up a good sweat. Living up to the next "highlight," these t-shirts did in fact dry quickly, although they did not dry faster than we were able to create more sweat, but once off our backs, the shirts dried within minutes.
Since the preferred method of t-shirt storage in our apartment is "balled up" we were also able to test whether these shirts could be wrinkle free. Now, unballing the t-shirt did reveal wrinkles, but after doning the shirt and heating them up a little in the great outdoors we did find the wrinkles quickly released. Once again, the t-shirt lives up to the claims.
By now you must be curious about stink. Two able-bodied individuals braving the summer heat in a bi-pedal manner must be sweating and within that sweat there must be feeding bacteria whose feces contribute to what is commonly referred to as "body odour." Yes, we did sweat. Yes, we even thoroughly drenched our t-shirts. And no, they did not stink. In fact, I remained smelling like the man your man can smell like and my girlfriend retained her gentle fragrance of lilacs and other flowers I fail to bring home and decorate our apartment with.
Understandably, I cannot test whether or not these t-shirts are actually biodegradable, however, if they do begin to biodegrade while in use, I will be sure to inform you once I find a replacement shirt because I never blog shirtless.
Ok, so the shirts live up to the claims I am capable of unprofessionally testing (no labs nor lab coats were used and therefore any and all tests completed by me are as amateur as it gets). But how do they fit?
The mens crew neck Euca Tee fits long in the body thus keeping my lower back/upper butt from exposure to the elements. The thin fabric hangs nicely and I found no strange bunching or tight spots when in "cycling position." My girlfriend also likes the longer length and the scoop neck is comfortable and appropriate for her work.
For the more daring, there are v-neck styles for both men and women. This neck style may be great for allowing even more moisture to be released from your upper torso, although I prefer to keep my chest out of view of spectators as some parts of my body should remain in sacred seclusion.
In conclusion, the Modrobes Euca Tee is a versatile t-shirt made of a fabric that wears well and has a few added performance features that can benefit cyclists in the summer months.
The Euca Tee for men and women is available at Modrobes, 620 Queen Street West in Toronto for $35.

Philippines: Christmas lights brighten city hit hard by Typhoon Haiyan
Christmas carols and lanterns are lighting up Tacloban city in the Philippines. Six weeks after Typhoon Haiyan devastated the city and claimed thousands of lives, residents are starting to feel the spirit of Christmas. The need for a sense of normality is evident throughout the city.
When the super typhoon swept through the Philippines on 8 November, it affected the lives of 14 million people across the country. Homes, farmlands, bridges and power lines were destroyed in places like Tacloban, one of the hardest-hit cities, leaving many families stranded and without access to clean water and electricity. Aid organizations and the Government mounted a massive relief operation reaching millions of people with life-saving assistance. And just weeks ago, electricity came back to very few parts of Tacloban.
Bringing back the Christmas spirit
Ten power-generated lanterns shine brightly at the Santo Nino Church - one of the few buildings with electricity in Tacloban. As the authorities continue working on restoring power throughout the city, the illuminated church acts as symbol of Christmas, giving the residents a sense of hope and festivity.
"The lights are a symbol of hope for all of us in the midst of darkness," says 66-year-old Maria de la Vega looking at the lanterns. "They not only make me feel the spirit of Christmas but more importantly the courage that brings hope. With or without Yolanda we will celebrate Christmas."
A 17-metre Christmas tree has been erected in front of Tacloban's city hall, creatively decorated with used water bottles and iron pipes left behind by the storm. Many people have crafted decorations from the rubble and have put up their own Christmas trees outside the skeletons of their houses. Recycled bottles have become ornaments, biscuit labels as garlands and plastic foam cups as snowflakes.
A Christmas tree surrounded by debris and rubble
In the neighborhood of Magallanes, the Miraflor family of eleven is sharing the spirit of the season with their community. Together they have decorated a Christmas tree which stands surrounded by debris and rubble.
"We found the tree in the debris and we started decorating it with what we could find," says Marideth Miraflor. "Despite the desolation we will celebrate the fact that we are all alive and together." Her husband Rodolfo, who was a fisherman, is now jobless as the storm swept away boats and other fishing gear.
Most people affected by the typhoon are still entirely dependent on aid and will miss out on eating lechon – or suckling pig – that usually crowns their Christmas feast. Those who no longer have houses will be celebrating Christmas in the halls and classrooms that still serve as evacuation centers.
"We will celebrate Christmas with candles, with sardines and noodles - what is important is that we are alive," says Rosalinda Onida, 46, adding that lavish celebrations are out of the question. She shares her makeshift home built from iron sheeting, tarps and pieces of wood from the debris with her family.
Hope and resilience
Aid organizations continue to be busy providing essential aid as well as helping families recover and rebuild their lives. Electricity and water is trickling back into Tacloban and other typhoon-hit areas. The clearing of rubble and repairing of homes are providing jobs to displaced people. Many small businesses, including hotels and restaurants are reopening their doors, even if they have to rely on generators to operate.
"Just thinking about what occurred it is not going to help, we need to keep going," says Ronalie Evangelista whose food kiosk was washed away. "I had to do something, we cannot rely on relief forever." Ronalie has now opened a new kiosk - a growing sign of economic resilience seen among the people of Tacloban.
"Communities affected by the storm have shown remarkable resilience and courage over the last six weeks, starting the difficult and daunting task of rebuilding their lives, in some cases from literally nothing," says UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator Luiza Carvalho. "They need our continued support."

Legendary for a reason.
A stupendously high-quality non-setback seatpost that sets the standard for saddle adjustability and overall precision. The post and cradle are machined from one piece of 7000-series aluminum. Uses a 2-bolt design that allows you to nose your saddle up or down through adjustments to the bolts. 41mm seat rail grip. At 180g it rivals the lightness of carbon posts that cost twice as much.

The Thomson post has been a standard in the industry for ages. The simple design needs no improvement. It simply works. Besides being well made, the post is extremely light and even lighter than most carbon posts.
Will this seatpost take saddles with 7x9 carbon rails?
Hi James, yes this post is compatible with 7x9 carbon rails.
Do Not Choose Anything Else!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Had this seat post on my MTB for years now. Never had an issue. If I needed one on my road bike I would buy it again.
Except no substitute
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Everyone compares their seatpost to Thomson, so why not just get a Thomson. If you like alloy, this is THE seatpost. I own two, one on my track bike and one on my mountain bike, and I would put one on my cross bike, but I don't ride it enough to justify the cost of a new seatpost.
Great And solid.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Awesome seatpost. Very high quality seatpost and nicely machined. Very light and sturdy. I have not had any problems with it. Does not flex.
Thomson offers unmatched quality on alloy product!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The Thomson Elite has been a classic standby any time I need a new post. I've had this on road bikes, mountain bikes, and city bikes. I've never had any complaints. It is comfortable and lighter than many carbon posts.
Great post when you need a lot of angle.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I use this on a, now ancient, Maverick Matic. The monolink design requires the seat post angle to be very aggressive so the seat post has to compensate for it. Though it's at the limits with the stock bolts, it works out fine. No issue are creaking. Fantastic high quality seat post. With about 2 dozen rides on it, zero issues.
post perfection
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I run this post on my Yeti. Love it. Looks good. No slip at all. Very strong as well.
Great Great
Nice light strong post that doesn't slip and looks fairly good as well.
Elite 30.9 Black
Stiff and light.
The best hands down
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I enjoy the aesthetics of Thomson but the quality can't be beat.
I've used zero-offset posts for some time now and I'm all in on Thomson. Some other stuff might be a few grams lighter but there's something about a Thomson, that badass look!
It makes my already amazing bike better!
Only the Best for a Custom Build
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I was doing a custom build last summer , I decided to get Thompson Seat Post and Stem, great products. Made in America , light weight , sturdy and classic look. I'm glad I went with the best.
Thomson 4 Life!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Every bike I've owned... since 2002 or so, have all been Thomson'd up! When something is great, you stick with 'em.
Good ol' Thomson.
Can't beat it...
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've owned three or four of these over the years. This one seems to be built to same standards I've come to expect from Thomson. Fit perfectly, set up was a breeze and it looks great too.
so shiny and new
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
machined to perfection. light as hell
Super Nice Seatpost!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I'm loving mine so far! Everybody knows that Thomson gear is top of the line, and super high quality, so there's really no need to comment on that any further. I got mine on Backcountry, on sale for a really great price, too. The ease of installation and set-up went perfectly. The use so far has been flawless. I have no complaints whatsoever...
Agree: its the gold standard seatpost.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Had many of these on multiple mountain bikes. All did their job without every a hiccup. Will continue to put these on all my mountain bikes.
Thomson Elite Seat Post
I love this brand and this seatpost. It holds the saddle real nice and tight.
I tried many seatpost before, and broke many of them, but this one just won't, its durable and can go through anything.
in general this seatpost is very reliable and you won't be disappointed
don't hesitate to buy!!

From Mind to Molecule: The Powerful New Tools of Research
From The Quarterly, Spring 2011
All medical research strives to untangle complex processes in the body so as to be able to intervene better in treating illness. Biological psychiatrists are working to be able to question what in the brain makes individuals vulnerable for mental illness and to categorize illnesses. Toward that end, they are drawing upon research tools never before available; tools for imaging the brain's structure and activity, for studying genes and genomes, cells and molecules; tools that are powerful, safe and reliable. Neuroscience has entered an era in which questions that were once unanswerable can now be answered.
The oldest method of study in medicine is clinical observation: how a patient looks, acts and feels – what is called a phenotype. As opposed to the genotype, which is the basic set of genes common to a species, the phenotype is the way genes play out in a particular individual: brown eyes or blue, for instance. But also evident are such things as signs of psychosis. There is also a method called evoked phenotype. Physicians look for underlying heart problems by using a stress test. Behavioral problems can be evoked, for example, with memory tests or by how well or poorly a patient reads social cues, or with brain imaging that observes activity or blood flow in the brain when a patient performs a specific task.
An important, ubiquitous research tool is the use of animal models. While there can be no exact animal models of human mental illnesses – a mouse with schizophrenia, for instance – specific features associated with a disorder, such as problems of learning and memory seen in schizophrenia, can be induced in animals through an array of genetic technologies.
Endophenotype, also called intermediate phenotype, relates to behaviors and brain activity seen in people with an illness that are also present in first-degree relatives who may or may not be ill. Many current studies are examining families of people with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses to gain clues as to the reasons illness develops in one member of the family and not another.
These methods are likened to zooming in and out with a camera; zooming in for as close a picture as possible, zooming out to try to see what is common to different disorders based on the growing evidence of overlap across disorders in phenotype, symptoms and the brain systems underlying particular behaviors.

On a very rainy Saturday, I joined Toronto City Council Ward 18 candidate Frank de Jong and several others on a bike tour through a few neighbourhoods.
Ward 18 is a diverse and growing collection of neighbourhoods. Bloorcourt, "Blansdowne," the Junction Triangle and even part of West Queen West make a ward where people live and work and many ride bicycles.
Our tour started at The Common on College Street and from there we headed north to Dufferin Grove park.
Here we met with Jutta Mason, who gave us a quick rundown her involvement with the many initiatives that have created the fantastic community space that is Dufferin Grove Park.
Wayne Scott, an exceptional green transportation activist, spoke to us about his involvement in getting the government to recognize that food is fuel for bicycle couriers.
As the rain started to fall a little harder we met with Bruce Ward (in jeans) and Dougal Bichan (second photo in shorts) who spoke of the land classifications, ones that mean developments must offer employment. They also told us about the upcoming New Bloor Street Festival.
Further down the railpath we stopped in for shelter on Sally Hewson's front porch. A graphic designer who works from her home, she spoke of the efforts to preserve indigenous vegetation along the railpath and future plans for abandoned factories in the area, including a potential game design campus.
As the clouds continued to empty upon us we made our way south to West Queen West and sought refuge in the welcoming space of The Gladstone Hotel. Here we listened to Steve Heuchert of Active 18 whose stories of dealing with developers, and ensuring that designs include the community they are built in, left us inspired in the ability to become involved in the ward you live in.
Over a few hours we were able to see, meet and speak with the people who are helping shape where residents live and work in Ward 18. Have you explored your ward lately?

The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) (2009)
"Due to adult content and mature language, patrons under 5 should stay home and those under thirteen should think about it."
There have been vicious rumors spread around town that The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) is nothing more than a series of groin kicks, puking riffs and an excuse for men to wear girlie wigs. We would like to dispel these rumors; in fact, we would like to kick these rumors in the groin and puke on them, all while wearing girlie wigs.
In fact, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) contains everything that a legitimate Shakespearean production would have:
Broad insults
Insulting broads
Implausible plot twists
Strange Double-Casting
Pop-culture references
Rhyming Couplets
Hatred of the Dutch
Light sabers
Profuse vomiting
Your Mom
Pumpkin Pants
References to Battlestar Galactica
Interminably long pastoral dances at inopportune moments
Men playing men, men playing women, and women doing the real work
Also, the list of plays:
The Plays of William Shakespeare
All's Well That Ends Well; Anthony and Cleopatra; As You Like It; The Comedy of Errors; Coriolanus; Cymbeline; Hamlet; Henry IV, Part I; Henry IV, Part II; Henry V; Henry VI, Part I; Henry VI, Part II; Henry VI, Part III; Henry VIII; Julius Caesar; King John; King Lear; Love's Labour's Lost; Macbeth; Measure for Measure; The Merchant of Venice; The Merry Wives of Windsor; A Midsummer Night's Dream; Much Ado About Nothing; Othello; Pericles; Richard II; Richard III; Romeo and Juliet; The Taming of the Shrew; The Tempest; Timon of Athens; Titus Andronicus; Troilus and Cressida; Twelfth Night; Two Gentlemen of Verona; A Winter's Tale.

Stephen Weitz is a CSF Core Company member; this summer, you can see him playing the REAL Hamlet (not like the two-bit hacks in this show!). During his formative artistic years, he served as a company member with the Weehawken Theatre Caravan (America's Band of Traveling Players!). After an… incident (still pending legal clarification), Stephen was removed from his post at the WTC and for the past seven long, painful, lonely years, he has wandered a theatrical wasteland as WTC's artistic director-in-exile. Keep and eye out for his upcoming one-man musical revue, CHUBBINS!
Matt Mueller (Guest Actor) was born on February the 1st of November. When he was a little girl, he loved to sing and play dress-up with his sisters, and apparently, not much has changed. Matt's previous bouts of running onstage and yelling inappropriately in BETC productions include Morisot Reclining, Antigone, Savage in Limbo and The Glass Menagerie. In his autumn years, he has been seen onstage at the Colorado Shakespeare Festival in Woody Guthrie's American Song, Love's Labours Lost, and Around the World in 80 Days in which he fell down more than a few times. This one's for Cinnamang and Cardamom. Stephen and Geoff are f*%#ing awesome. BUH!
Geoffrey Kent is surprised CSF has welcomed him back after what happened at the 2008 closing night party: very, very surprised. Previously at CSF, Geoffrey has been in Cleopatra, Juliet, Viola, Phoebe, Luciana, Miranda and several Shrews. Recent roles include a star turn as Ratcliffe in the Denver Center Theatre Company's production of Richard III which prompted Denver Post critic John Moore to rave, "Cast members also included Geoffrey Kent." Also a fight director and stage combat teacher, he founded the poorly attended youth stage combat camp, RapierChildren. Geoffrey is the editor of the online Shakespeare fan blog: www.will.blog.iam.blog.shake.blog.speare.blog.blog.blog.dotnet/poker777/...

The picture is beautiful! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Communication was excellent and I definitely would recommend this vendor.

Another great purchase from this seller!
Kelsey Lesley on Feb 27, 2017
Exactly as pictured, professional seller and quick turn around. Would definitely buy it again.
A very creative journey...
For me it started when I found my dad's old Yashicamat in the closet. I was about 7 and was so hooked that Dad gave me my first Kodak Brownie that year. One year later he bought me some film... hey, I really had no idea I needed film?, but it was a great way to learn composition. I suppose that is why I still have a passion for my collection of old film cameras and why I feel so much more in touch with the process of creating when I shoot film. It's incredibly tactile.
While digital is sharp and clear and works for some, I like to say film has a soul. Not just a bunch of ones and zeros.
After 15 years of traveling and working in New York as a creative director I left the corporate life to start Integrity Studio in the spring of 2000. At first I would sell my photography out of my trunk at art fairs.
In the spring of 2003 I opened my gallery in the art community of New Hope PA. Now with more space I am able to showcase my larger, murals in my handcrafted frames as well as my abstract paintings. You can still find me in the gallery every Sat and Sun, please do stop by if you find yourself in the area.
My photography, whether straight forward or experimental is about finding great light and even better composition. My goal, to take the viewer away, back to that space I saw, with very little interruption.

- Well, have been working on my mud, currently called
PyMud (really need a better name for it, any suggestions
from Mudders, or anybody with naming skills would be
appriciated at deathfox at moochercrew dot org). Anyways,
working up updating it to use newstyle classes, and take
advantage of some other python2.2 things. Since I
subscribed to the python mailing list I haven't worked on
anything significant on PyMud, just changing the code base
to be more Pythonic.
- Life is going pretty good for me. Got a pet Ferret
about a week ago, named her Ruri (Mobile Battle Ship
Nedesko). She's only 3 months old, and absolutly adorable.
Tons of trouble, but aren't all cute things.
- My Girlfriend is going away for 3 days, (I live with her),
which means 3 days of programing. Kinda nice, but kinda
dull at the same time. For some reason it's hard to get
motivated when I'm all alone.
- School is well school, right now I'm taking some base
classes, like writing so that I don't have to inturupt my CS
studies when I get down to Oregon State.
Writing 123
- Writing 123 is the Research paper writing class, I'm
planning on writing about the beauty of code, figure it
should have enough stuff written about it, either, talking
about code in specific or beauty in general, that I can
write a decent paper. Need to actually do a bit of
research, as a summery is due on Monday.
Math 252
- Not much happening in Math, just second term calculus,
No assignments due, but interesting, mainly because I have a
good teacher, and I haven't taken this class before.
Japanese 103
- Japanese is fun, lots of work, for some reason no matter
how well I understand programing languages, and am able to
learn them (for the most part), I just can't get the nack of
forign languages, but I'm really enjoying learning. I wish
I could figure out how to get evolution under debian to do
proper Japanese support, so people on hotmail can recive
them, but I haven't really tried to hard to do it. Watashi
no genki desu.
Speach 111
- Ugh, required speach class. That's all I can say about
it, it's required, and it's speach. I know I know, I'll
have to use it some day. But I really don't like it.

And yet, people still bought it.
This is the part that makes me a bit sad. Why would they spend the money needed to make for a smooth launch when it doesn't matter? - people will still buy. There will be some bad press, a lot of grumbling etc., but does that really impact buying habits for the next game?
I don't know, but I do know that my buying habits have changed in the last couple years. I personally very rarely buy AAA games anymore, and when I do I make sure to pass on games with even a hint of these types of shenanigans.
Which is a shame, since I would have gladly plopped down money for SC, D3 and many other recent titles.
