It's Showtime Madrid Live Results
- Written by Rian Scalia
Today, It's Showtime ventures into Madrid for their sixth event of the year. Among the names on the card are Tyrone Spong, Gago Drago, Murthel Groenhart and It's Showtime 61MAX World Champion Karim Bennoui just to name a few. We'll be providing live results here at Liverkick.com. For live play by play of the event, check us out on Twitter, @LiverKickdotcom and @rianscalia.
The event goes live at 3PM EST/12PM PST. You can order the event for 10 Euros at www.showtimefights.com or if you're in Canada, you can watch it live on The Fight Network at the same time.
The full line up:
Zeben Diaz vs. Yavuz Kayabasi
Zeben Diaz wins by Unanimous Decision over 3 rounds. The fight was all Diaz as Kayabasi pretty much didn't do anything. Diaz showcased very crisp hands and combos to get the win.
Moises Ruibal vs. Sahak Parparyan
Sahak Parparyan wins by Majority Decision (4-1) over 3 rounds. Good fight, Sahak had a very hard time finding Ruibal in the first round but by the third round, Sahak came on strong and hurt Ruibal a few times.
Murthel Groenhart vs. Rafi Zouheir
Murthel Groenhart wins by TKO (Corner Stoppage). Zouheir got dropped quickly and was accidentally hit while on the way down, resulting in a yellow card for Groenhart. Groenhart then rushed out and dropped Zouheir twice, forcing the corner to throw in the towel. The Spanish crowd is going crazy over the controversial kick while Zouheir was on the way down.
Javier Hernandez vs. Karim Bennoui (It's Showtime 61MAX World Title Fight)
Javier Hernandez wins by Decision over 5 rounds to become the new It's Showtime 61MAX World Champion. Great fight, both fighters traded knockdowns. I had Bennoui winning but it was close.
Abraham Roqueni vs. Gago Drago
Abraham Roqueni wins by Majority Decision (4-1) over 3 rounds. Drago didn't have much for Roqueni, who moved around the ring picking his shots while Drago chased after him. Drago made it a but closer in the third round, with the pressure wearing on Roqueni but it was a clear win for Roqueni.
Tyrone Spong vs. Loren Javier Jorge
Tyrone Spong wins by Unanimous Decision over 3 rounds. Spong battered Loren with knees to the body but couldn't finish. Vinny Shoreman was sure that Spong had hurt his hand, and thus why he didn't throw more left hooks to the body to finish off Loren.

For whatever reason, most people who feed birds seem to feed them only during cold weather. Come the autumn, bird feeding swings into high gear, and the bird stores and nature centers hold their annual bird seed sales.
Yet, those people who feed birds in spring and summer have some of the best bird-watching experiences of all. Thats when the most colorful birds are around, and thats when parent birds introduce their youngsters to the bird feeders and birdbaths. To watch baby chickadees eat sunflower seeds or baby robins take their first bath is wonderful.
It all comes down to why we feed birds ... the answer should be for our own enjoyment of these incredible wild creatures. No one should ever feed birds to help them, or to save them, because birds do not need our help. They have survived for eons before we began feeding them, and studies have shown that even when feeder food is available, they eat only about 25 percent of their daily diet from feeders.
Yet, there are people who would not dare leave their homes in the North during winter for fear that the birds will starve. This is nonsense, and besides, nowadays everyones neighbors are feeding birds, and the birds simply move next door or down the street when the feeders are empty.
If we feed birds for our pleasure, we might as well enjoy them the year around, because some of the best bird shows are playing in the summertime.
-- George H. Harrison

Roger Eno - Anatomy (cd)
An exquisite companion piece to Fragile (Music), Roger Eno's Anatomy expands upon the spare, piano only, experiments of his previous album, with a series of instinctive and reflective keyboard instrumentals deploying delicate textures and his typically distinctive use of space.
1. the darkness silvers away
'In the main, the music that you hear on this disc is composed of collages. most of the pieces had no real direction to begin with. I started with a clue rather than a grand plan- it could have been an ostinato, a chord progression, or a brief melodic idea. I then left gaps to be filled later, or kept as spaces depending on the development of the track. It was a delightfully free way in which to work.

Binghamton University Professor honored with 'distinguished' rank
Thomas O'Connor, professor of Spanish at Binghamton University, State University of New York, has been promoted to distinguished professorship, a tenured University ranking that is conferred for consistently extraordinary accomplishment.
The State University of New York Board of Trustees announced 11 such appointments last week. Recipients are nominated for this honor by their campus presidents for having achieved national or international prominence and an established reputation in their field of expertise.
O'Connor, who joined Binghamton's faculty in 1988, has achieved national and international recognition for excellence in the field of Spanish Golden Age studies.
He has been a major force in furthering and enriching the study of Spanish classical theater.
"Professor O'Connor's ability to take mythological lessons as written about in the works of Agustín de Salazar y Torres (1636-1675) and Pedro Calderón de la Barca (1600-1681) and write about them in a manner that emphasizes their relevance to the human condition as it exists today is a remarkable feat," Binghamton University President Lois B. DeFleur wrote in her nomination letter. "…He has eloquently accomplished this feat, and in doing so has exposed new generations to the importance of these extraordinary representations of human passion and love."
O'Connor has written two major books, five critical editions with introductions and more than 50 articles for scholarly journals. He previously taught at Kansas State, Texas A&M and the State University College at Cortland.
O'Connor, who did his undergraduate work at Iona College, holds master's and doctoral degrees in Spanish from the University at Albany.
He lives in Vestal, NY.

I'm sure most/all have already heard that long time Oiler head coach Craig MacTavish has been relieved of his duties. I must admit, that for me the firing/stepping down is bitter sweet.
I'm a firm believer that MacT is an excellent NHL head coach, his invitations to international events and his likely move as a head coach elsewhere in the NHL serve as proof to that.
That said, eight years is a long time in a position that typically has a 3-4 year shelf life, MacT's patience for the team (and the teams patience with him) seemed to be wearing thin. With the well documented disconnect between MacTavish and Penner/Nilsson something had to give this summer.
Going forward I'm sure Lowbillini will quickly survey the field to find suitable replacements, local candidate Brent Sutter, currently with the Devils seems to be a fan favorite, other names brought up include Marc Crawford and Pat Quinn. Personally I don't follow coaches that closely and I feel their affect on the teams record is way overstated, but I would like to see a young, career AHL coach with a great record and a fire to succeed (and finaly get his chance) brought in… we will see.

Hi Jerry!
At the moment I've got two, possible three, 'Gofers' so we're good to go. HOWEVER, having said that .. think 2005 or the fall reunion.
Everyone would really like to meet one of our best posters .. not to mention vice (now that sounds a bit off :hehe: ) around.
What days are the clinic? May come be the gopher. Let me know. Will see if my schedule will allow me to come.
Dinner with "The Redhead" on Friday evening.
I'm assuming everyone will be at our home on Saturday evening for dinner. BUT would like to do/get a head count for Friday evening. Please E MAIL ME at firstname.lastname@example.com.
(IN THE AREA OF FOOD!!! if you have a preference (vegetarian, can't eat sea food, etc., PLEASE LET ME KNOW. It's darned easy to plan around your requirements if I know them ahead of time!!!)
Dinner on Friday will be BBQ Chicken, Green Salad, Carmalized Onions, and Baked potatoes. (I'm sure there will be plenty of single malt and red/white wine to help wash it down. )
Saturday's dinner (as presently planned) is a huge seafood pasta, toasted garlic bread, green salad, and etc.
DIRECTIONS to Fred/Joan's home in Ashland.
I-5 south/north as appropriate. OFF AT EXIT 14 (South Ashland Exit). If you're coming NORTH at the end of the off ramp turn LEFT and cross over the freeway; COMING SOUTH turn RIGHT and (either way) straight ahead up Ashland Ave to THE STOP LIGHT.
(For you staying at the Super 8 it's about 1/2 block on the left before you hit the light.
At the light, TURN LEFT UP TOLMAN CREEK ROAD about 50 yards (you're passing a BiMart and Goodwill store on your right) until you JUST cross the railway tracts. Immediately on your RIGHT is Takalma Way; TURN RIGHT and straight ahead 50 yards to where CLAY CREEK WAY forks off to your RIGHT. Our home is about half way down the block across from the park (new home under construction next door)

For those of you fishing before after the Charity Clinic we expect you to join us for dinner. Which means (back to the e mail) let us know how many days you expect to pound the Rogue.
Weathers looking pretty darned good to boot; won't be 75 (as is today) but very comfortable.
Charity Spey Clinic Folks! THE FISH ARE IN!!
Called up the toll free number to day to check river flow/fish count. The counter is due north of Medford at Gold Rae dam.
In one week the winter steelhead count went from 1000 fish to a little (Feb 29th) over 6,000! Bulk of the fish still appear to be holding below Tou Velle Park (we're at the upper Park on Saturday, and across river/up stream on Sunday morning.
FOR THE SATURDAY SESSION AT THE PARK REMEMBER THERE IS A $3.00 PARKING FEE. Not 'tickiee, you get tickee ... $75.00!! Bring some ones with you. We're on a public beach (not a park) on Sunday so there's no parking fee.
Directions to Tou Velle Park:
Off Exit 30 in north Medford onto 62 (Crater Lake Highway) approx. 4.5 miles to where Adobe Road heads off to the left. (If you miss it turn left at either of the next two left turns (Big R or Antelope Road--if you do Antelope Road, obviously you'd go straight ahead through the blinker light in the next paragraph) and head over..
Up Adobe about 1/2 mile to the 'blinker light at ANTELOPE ROAD;' LEFT at the blinker about another 1/2 mile to TABLE TOP ROAD.
RIGHT ON TABLE TOP approx 1/3-1/2 mile (JUST PAST THE TRANSFER STATION) to Tou Velle Park entrance on your right. DO NOT CROSS THE RIVER!!. Head up about three major parking areas to the top end of 'the island.'
I'm suggesting we start class at 9:30am on Saturday as this will give every one time to have breakfast at the Wild Goose/etc and get up to the park at a 'civilized' time of the morning, geared up and good to go. For you early birds who want to hit the river, sun up is about 6am.

Picture the scene……out on the town with relatively new boyfriend.
The wine is flowing, and out come the shots…..Sambuca. Ugh. Just one of those makes me feel like I'm gonna lose my dignity all over the place.
So why not be really big and clever and have a few shots in a row just to really get the party started! I wanted to impress my party loving boyfriend by showing him I could keep up the pace……
Keeping up meant falling down the stairs at the nightclub, whilst spewing and splitting my jeans right in the arse, with my arse cheeks and thong in full view of a heap of people queuing up to get into the club ……multi tasking at its pure finest 😉
The poor chap had to carry me home and then had the pleasure of sleeping next to me all night whilst I was still covered in vomit…..Charming! I'm sure I smelled of girlfriend material 🙂
I ended up dating him for 6 months and he repaid the favour tenfold by pooping in the bed after a big night and a chilli lamb kebab…….yummy! To this day, I still can't do shots of Sambuca……or eat another lamb kebab.
Got a story to tell? We want to hear it in all its guts and glory!!

Don't know anyone from here. Not many from around my area
And when I've gone to camp or games or whatever I never really took any time to meet anyone
I only go to one or two games if I am lucky. But preseason might be cool to check out. Never been before.
I am sure we could tailgate....

Beef tenderloin may be your traditional Christmas dinner, but what about other special-occasion roasts? Are you game for something different? Roast goose makes perfect holiday fare (ah, Dickens!), as does whole duck brushed with glaze and always-elegant Cornish game hens.
Cornish game hens look and taste great (without much effort, in fact) but the sauce here, truly makes the dish. Reviewers recommend doubling it from the get-go.
view recipe
The rich, all-dark, almost beefy taste of goose makes it especially holiday-worthy. Plus, who can resist the lure of a traditional Dickensian Christmas?
Tender is the word for squab. Lean is another one.
Just make sure to cook no more than medium rare or it loses its robust flavor
and texture.
Freshly-ground juniper flavors the butter beautifully and gives this juicy turkey a Christmas-y vibe.
The sugar in the honey and the red color from the cranberries help the chicken brown to a beautiful burnished glow, and the slightly sweet skin is a nice complement to the juicy chicken meat.
An earthy mix of chanterelle, porcini, and morel mushrooms and rich, heady truffle oil make this dish a holiday standout.
Basting with cider during the last hour of roasting creates a sweet and beautiful bronze-glazed finish on this simple holiday bird.
The ducks are made abundantly flavorful by a rub of garlic, tangerine zest, five-spice powder, and coriander and an Asian-inspired glaze during the last few minutes of roasting.
These tender little birds are easy yet elegant, and you can brush on a glaze that suits your taste: a warm Port-Spice Glaze or a Gingery Citrus Glaze.
This traditional Sunday dinner is certainly special enough for a holiday. The chicken comes out incredibly juicy, with delicate herbal notes, and the vegetables are meltingly tender.

Happy 100th birthday, Julia Child!
Unless you've been under a rock this week, you know that today is Julia Child's 100th birthday. Kim Pierce has a terrific story in this morning's paper in which Dallasites share their memories of the French Chef. Bob Spitz has timed the publication of his biography of Julia, Dearie: The Remarkable Life of Julia Child, for her centennial. PBS Digital Studios has produced an absolutely wonderful tribute video that you simply much take four minutes to watch if you love Julia even a tiny bit. Julia Moskin (who was named after you-know-who) has a lovely tribute in the New York Times that focuses on the Julia recipes beloved by home cooks.
Personally speaking, I wouldn't be who I am today without Julia. I grew up on Julia's roast chicken and her mustard-coated leg of lamb and her bifteck haché à la lyonnaise, known in my family as "Julia Child burgers," and when, as a teenager in the late '70s, I started learning to cook, it was those recipes from Mastering the Art of French Cooking that I turned to. I didn't do a Julie Powell-style systematic cook-all-the-way-through-the-volumes, but I did make Julia's insanely time-consuming pot-au-feu, her boeuf bourguignon, her coq au vin, her vol-au-vent, her clafoutis, and a lot more. I woke up at four to make her croissants. That's how I learned to cook. I still make her veloutés and gougères, and yes, Julia Child burgers.
But cooking Julia's recipes did much more than teach me how to cook. They made me fall in love with cooking, made me love food and wine. I never imagined, as I studied political science and English and religious studies and art history as an undergraduate, that I'd wind up making a career around food, but somehow that's what happened. I always carried those recipes — and the spirit of Julia, even when she was alive — around in me, and I suppose I always will. I had the honor of meeting her once, at an event in New York in the early 1990s. I think it may have had to do with her 80th birthday, which would make it exactly 20 years ago. It was only a shake of the hand, a melodic "Hello!" and a warbly "How do you do?!," but what a thrill. (Kim Pierce actually got to spend quality time with her — how very cool!)
So, did you learn to cook from Julia? What are the dishes that most influenced you or thrilled you? Which of her recipes to you still make? We'd really love to hear about them.
And here's a parting thought. When I received a review copy of Bob Spitz's mammoth biography, I thought, wow, do we really need another biography of Julia Child? I've read so many of them. It wasn't a thought I was happy to own, as Bob is an old friend that I haven't talked to in a few years. I remember when I met him in the early '90s, he told me he was working on a biography of Julia for Knopf. Oh, sure. (I didn't know whether to believe him!) He's published lots of books since, including a biography of the Beatles (The Beatles), also mammoth. But then I received the hardcover copy of Dearie, and cracked it open. On the endpapers are reproductions of scripts from Julia's PBS series, The French Chef. The front of the book has show #1, Boeuf Bourguignon; the back has show #4, Omelettes. Julia absolutely comes to life in those endpapers. "It is a perfectly delicious dish," says Julia of the boeuf bourguignon. "Serve it with rice, as we do here, or with buttered noodles or boiled potatoes, and a king couldn't ask for a better dinner." Maybe I do need to read another Julia bio, after all.
UPDATE: Driving to work, I turned on the Diane Rehm Show, and there was Bob, chatting with Diane about Julia. Lots of good stuff. Here's a link, if you missed it.
Happy 100th, Julia. Thank you for giving us all so much.

May be setting up a new tank...opinions please!
Hi all - It's been a while since I was on. I had a 29 gallon that I was using as a neon tank, but I have since moved up to a 60 gallon tank so I could increase school sizes, etc....should have started big in the first place.
Speaking of big...I have the opportunity to score a nice 125 gallon tank which is making me want to go back to my roots and have a nice goldfish tank in which I'd like to have about 6 fancy goldies (probably 2 each black moors, orandas, and lionheads).
It's been a while since I set up a goldfish tank, so there are many new filters out there than what I used to use before. My question is this: if I were to get a 125 gallon setup with the anticipated stock of 6 fancy goldfish...what should I be looking at as far as filtration goes?
I'm currently looking at a Fluval FX5 canister filter, rated for tanks up to 400 gallons and I'd like to get a good HOB filter so I can have two good filters running at the same time. I don't have any real experience with large HOB filters though...do any of you have any recommedations that I should look into? Does this sound like a good setup considering the size and my stocking preference?
Feel free to give me your thoughts and opinions. I'm in no hurry with this one. I'm going to take my time and do it right. Thanks!
My fave HOB <3
I think a FX5 is an excellent choice for the tankl & stock and for an HOB to go with it IMO there is only one choice... An Aquaclear 110.
They are versatile, Durable, Effective & have good flow and capacity, It's win/win/win. [& I am confident the '+1s' will follow]
Gas mileage isn't everything OIIIIIIIO
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.
+2 to the above
Those two filters should be enough for a high bio-load. I really do like my FX5 and I have always like aquaclear HOB filterIf you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

I Agree!!!!
What can I say, +1 to mr 850RMy therapist says I need a bigger tank . . . . .
Forgive me if you know this already, but I guess the only thing to add is make sure the decorations aren't pointy/sharp, and the substrate (if you choose to use it) is far too big to fit in a mouth.
I've heard they enjoy playing in bubbles.20 gallon with a male betta, neons, glowlights, and red cherry shrimp. (work in progess) Recently added a few LIVE plants and driftwood, Woooohoooo!
If you go with an aquaclear 110 it will fit just fine. Only certain hob filters will fit on the platic lip of the tank. Others that I know fit are a whisper 60 and aqueon 55/75- though both of those take cartidges and arent as versitile.
Thanks for all the feedback, eveybody...it is much appreciated. I really liked everything I read about the FX5, and I like the Fluval 206 I have, so I just wanted to know if t was a good option going up that much in size. I'm also glad to hear the Aquaclear 110 is a good bet as well. I use an Aquaclear 70 on my 60 with the Fluval 206, so I'm familiar with it...I just wasn't sure if it would give me enough filtration with the FX5 for that sze of a tank and for goldfish.
I pulld the trigger on the tank, and I'll have it today. I'm really excited about it...the 60 galon Ihave now is the bigest tank I've ever owned, so this is a real jump for me!
Thanks also for the input about the goldfish...I'm not planning on having much in th way of decrations...just some plants and maybe a few things that catch my eye, and I'll probably be using sand for the substrate. I'll have lot of bubblers...they do like to play in the bubbles!

OXFORD – If Bobby Wahl were a professional wrestler his ring name might not be "Master of Disaster."
Instead, the way his junior season is playing out, a better name might be "Mister Blister."
The blister on his pitching hand has been a season-long impediment for Wahl, an obstacle he's pitched through while keeping opponents pinned down.
A junior from Springfield, Va., Wahl is most likely pitching his final days for the Rebels. The blister has given him one more thing to think about to keep his mind off the coming Major League Baseball draft.
The regular Friday starter for the Rebels, Wahl will be on the mound tonight as they try to extend their SEC win streak to seven games. First pitch at Swayze Field against Kentucky is 6:30, and the game will be televised by ESPNU.
Friday's game starts at 6:30, Saturday's at 2:15 and will be televised by Fox Sports Net.
Wahl is a big reason the Rebels have gotten off the mat in the SEC, rising from 4-8 to 10-8 after consecutive sweeps at home against Alabama and at Tennessee.
"A lot of times when those guys are in the program, the stars, the Lynns, the Pomeranzes, the Heads, when those guys are here in their third year you almost take it for granted. It's a shame," Ole Miss coach Mike Bianco said.
Kentucky (24-16, 7-11 SEC) arrives having lost seven straight including a 3-2 decision Tuesday at Western Kentucky.
Wahl leads SEC starters in earned run average at 1.22, is tied for second in wins with eight and tied for third in opponent batting average at .183.
He hasn't given up a run in 162⁄3 innings or given up an earned run in his last three starts.
Walks have sometimes been a problem, giving up 32 in 66.2 innings. That's due in part to the blister, and he's often pitched out of trouble because opponents haven't hit him consistently.
"It affects my breaking ball command a little bit. To off-set that I just throw as hard as I can," said Wahl, laughing.
It is in fact the breaking ball, the slider, that sets Wahl apart, Bianco says.
"Against Tennessee the slider was just tremendous. His breaking ball, I think, is underrated," Bianco said.
Wahl's control was better against the Vols as he walked just two in a complete game shutout.
He was a projected first round pick before he began his current tear.
He says he doesn't think about the draft.
"It's really not that hard. I'm enjoying every second of this. I love every guy on this team," Wahl said. "It's really not that hard to focus on anything but Omaha."
Bianco disagrees. He says it's unfair to ask Wahl not to ponder such a looming life-changing event.
That's perfectly fine with Bianco as long as Wahl thinks of a few other things too.
"One of the things we talk about a lot is, 'Remember how you got here. You put yourself in this positions because of certain things you do well, certain ways you prepare.'
"I think everybody would agree that if you just try to do your job like you always have, you try to win games, get hits, make pitches … it will take care of itself."

There will be some changes made to the high school football season this fall, including an end to 7:30 p.m. kickoffs in August and September.
Mississippi High School Activities Association officials confirmed on Friday that all games will kick off at 7 p.m.
"This takes away any confusion about kickoff times and also will allow teams and fans to get home a little earlier," MHSAA executive director Don Hinton said in a statement. "We talked with our MHSAA sports medicine advisory committee and there wasn't any real difference in terms of heat being more of a factor at 7 p.m. compared to 7:30 p.m."
Fall practice will begin Aug. 5, with "Classic" games on Aug. 23 and the first week of the regular season on Aug. 30 – all a week later than in 2012.
In addition, the MHSAA will do away with the mandatory bye weeks for Classes 6A, 5A and 1A.

Oranda breeding with Ranchu? Please help.
Hello guys, hope all is well and with your pets too,
I have a question which is worrying me a bit. I woke up today as usual to feed my two fish (1x Oranda 1x Ranchu) and the Oranda seemed to have a very erratic course of behaviour. It is now chasing the Ranchu (which is getting very tired) bumping into it trying to stay side by side with it and a bit of tail nipping too. I have had these fish now for almost a year with no social problems what so ever. The water parameters are excellent, (Ammonia 0, nitrate 0, nitrite 0, ph.7.2 roughly). Is this the Oranda trying to breed with the Ranchu? Is it even possible? I tried to find out if it is the season for breeding but I could not find any info. I have no clue about breeding etc, so if anyone could shed some light I would be most grateful.
I have just looked on youtube at oranda breeding etc but my one seems to have different actions, it seems to charge at its side, chase it from behind, maybe a nip to the tail now and again then stay by it's side then repeated.
Warmest regards,

First I may ask how big is the tank. I'm not an expert on goldfish, but I'm pretty positive both the species you own grow to around 6 inches. Along with being quite large, goldfish produce a lot of waste and if you're not providing adequate tank space or filtration you could see stunted growth in your fish as well as aggressive behavior.
It certainly is possible for an oranda to breed with a ranchu. they both are types of goldfish that have been selectively bred to their current looks. its like a german shepherd breeding with a collie. Does the chaser have little raised white spots/pimples on its head and pectoral fins? Males in breeding condition exhibit so-called breeding tubercles which they use to stimulate females by rubbing their snouts on the female's vent and belly area. If you are observing that type of behavior then it might be spawning. At the very least its the right time of year(northern hemisphere) for them to be doing so. Unless you already have done so, adding bunches of fine-leaved aquarium plants or a spawning mop may lead to results.

Could it be aggression instead of mating? I guess that would be unlikely considering how long they've been in the same tank, but I also question how large the tank is and how big the fish are.

Hello, thank you for all the reply's. The tank there in now a is 60 gallons/ Eheim 2213 external filter/ no gravel/ and only plants are Elodea strands at the moment. madagascariensis I have checked the Oranda and it seems to have no raised spots on either the head or pectoral fins. I will observe them for a day or two to see if it just wasn't a coiencidence. The fish in size are a bit larger than an inch, the oranda is much fatter/denser however. Thank you all again
I'm not sure about keeping goldfish on bare bottom tanks. When I kept goldfish they spent a fair amount of time sifting through the substrate and investigating ornaments/plants. To me, it sounds like an aggression problem. Boredom probably doesn't help. Perhaps consider enriching the environment for them and see if that changes the behaviour."Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known." Carl Sagan

Hello Firefly thanks for the response, yes I have decor, plant pots good lighting colourfull background. I do not have any proof that having a tank with no gravel is better, but for me it has always seemed to work (I get a beneficial algae which grows at the bottom) and although aesthetically it does not look as nice as a tank with gravel it is much cleaner and easier to clean. That is interesting about the boredom bit you mention though, I never really thought about it but since it has been proven that they do have a long term memory this may very well be the case. I'll try and move a few things around and see if that might help (although i do change ornaments, plant locations etc every week.

I am working on a little game called jPong,
and i would really like to get some feedback from you!
Here's the Link:
It is not finished yet, but already playable in multiplayer.
Please note that there is a bug when starting the launcher, which will just open a blank window.
This can be fixed by restarting the launcher a few times.
So far it took me around 20 hours to make it.

- First is always food and Kitty has made a great start eliminating gluten. Gluten is known to offset hormonal balance, whether it's from celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Kitty doesn't mention if after 30 days she has noticed any improvement in her general health from removing gluten, which is something I would very much like to know. Dairy products are also a big no-no when a woman is expressing estrogen dominant symptoms. Unfortunately our cows are fed a lot of hormones (as is our beef) and that can definitely contribute to estrogen dominance. So in addition to diagnosing any food intolerances, all sources of exogenous [coming from the outside] hormones must be removed.
- Adrenal gland balance. We don't know much about Kitty's health history but it would be important to know about her stress load, both past and present, sleep habits, caffeine consumption, any drugs she takes, etc. The adrenal gland is the stress gland and when it is overstressed it will make more stress hormones and less progesterone. This is a major cause of hormonal imbalance in this country. A poor diet and food sensitivities will also stress the adrenal glands which is why step #1 is always done first. Fortunately normalizing adrenal function is not difficult nor does it involve any drugs or surgery.
- Natural, bio-identical hormones. Once again there are many questions about Kitty's health that are unknown to us, but it would be important, considering her large fibroid, to have some blood tests for hormonal levels. A woman who typically has a 28 day cycle would get a blood test on day 21 of her cycle. Her progesterone, total estrogen, DHEA and testosterone would all be measured. With Kitty's large fibroid and horrific PMS, would could likely make the assumption of a low progesterone level, but that doesn't tell us the rest of the values, which are equally important to know. Depending on the woman's age, some bio-identical hormones could be prescribed. There's also a substance made from broccoli that has a strong estrogen lowering effect in women whose estrogen is excessive. But without a lab test this is impossible to determine.
- Liver and digestive function. The top 3 points listed above are the major ones. But it is important to ensure that the liver and digestive organs are functioning normally to ensure that hormones are being excreted effectively. As an example, if you did all the points mentioned but the woman had constipation, you wouldn't get the desired results. The slow moving colon is allowing hormones that should be excreted to re conjugate and create disruption.

Is Gluten Sensitivity the Cause of PMS?
3 comments:
Hi Vikki, thank-you so much for discussing my situation. I will write a more detailed response later (when I have more time) answering some of the questions you raised. However, when I discuss my diet I think you will be very surprised that I'm still suffering from this hormonal imbalance. I eat a mostly 90-95% vegan diet, which doesn't mean I am vegan as I do eat a small amount of organic animal products - but only organic. I never eat junk food and I don't drink alcohol. I make sure that at least 50% of my food intake is raw. I drink loads of water and herbal teas and take supplements, making sure I support my liver. But there is some background to my situation and I will write more about that later. Cheers, Kitty x

| Yes, we said elbows. While regular hand washing is one of the top tips to avoid getting sick in cold and flu season, scrubbing all the way up to your elbows could be even more effective, says Stacy Mobley N.M.D.
The gross truth: "Studies suggest that the forearm holds more bacteria than your armpit," explains Mobley. In fact, the top places on the body for bacteria to thrive are the forearms, palms, index fingers, back of knee and the soles of feet, according to researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
Mobley recommends washing your hands and forearms regularly with soap, especially before eating or touching your face, and lathering up for the full length of the "Happy Birthday" song to wash off all cold and flu causing germs.

| What you dry your hands with is just as important as washing them, says Jamie Oskin, N.D. a naturopathic physician. Reusing the same cloth towel can spread even more germs.
"Paper towels can be easily disposed of to prevent the spreading of germs." It may seem un-green to use paper towels, but Dr. Oskin points out that for the amount of times a sick person washes her hands, it can be more of a burden on the environment to keeping washing those cloth towels.

| We always wondered why chicken soup was so good for colds, and it seems that the chicken bones could hold at least a part of the answer.
"Depending on your diet, try and incorporate bone marrow into your soups and stews by adding organic, free-range bones into the broth," recommends Elizabeth Trattner, A.P, D.O.M, an integrative medicine specialist in Miami Beach, FL. "Marrow is the root of blood and yin in Chinese Medicine and keeps the body healthy and strong during the winter season," she says. Bone marrow contains a type of fat found in our organs (in small amounts), which encourages the body to produce white blood cells to protect against infections and disease, explains Trattner.

| This antioxidant and vitamin-rich dark berry could help you ward off illness, says Mobley. Researchers at the University of Giessen in Germany found that liquid elderberry extract was strong enough to destroy disease-causing bacteria and flu viruses.
"Elderberries are filled with antioxidants and vitamins, namely Vitamin C and A. Any foods or medicine high in antioxidant status would help to ward off bacterial and viral infections, as well as support the heart, lungs and eyes," explains Mobley, who recommends a daily teaspoon of elderberry syrup. She likes Gaia herbs' organic elderberry syrup because it's free of high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors and flavorings, preservatives and pesticides.

| It may seem counterintuitive that spending time outdoors can prevent colds, but it may be the key to staying healthy in the winter, says Aditi Nerurkar, M.D., an integrative medicine physician.
"It's a myth that cold weather causes colds and the flu. The reason we see more of these illnesses during colder months is because we spend more time indoors, so we expose ourselves to these viruses more often," explains Dr. Nerurkar.
She recommends taking on a winter sport, like skiing, ice skating, snowshoeing or just taking regular walks. You'll minimize your exposure to viruses that may be cooped up indoors, and you'll stay fit while getting some fresh air.

| Having long, manicured nails may look pretty, but they can be a breeding ground for germs, says Mobley.
When researchers at the University of Michigan examined the nails of health care workers, they found that the ladies with long nails (3 millimeters past the tip) had illness-causing bacteria under their nails, while only 18 percent of those with short nails did. We often use our nails without even thinking about it and then touch our faces, eyes or noses with them.
On top of washing your hands, keep your nails trimmed. If you just can't bear to part with your acrylics, use a nailbrush. "A nail brush is an excellent way to remove germs lurking under nails," says Mobley, who recommends scrubbing under and over both sides of your nails every time you wash your hands.

| You probably haven't heard of Sea Buckhorn, but it just may be your immune system's secret weapon this winter.
"For thousands of years, people in the Far East, India and Russia used this powerful adaptogenic botanical to increase the body's resistance to stress trauma and fatigue while promoting heart liver and the immune system," says Trattner.
Full of essential fatty acids, antioxidant vitamins and minerals, studies in Russia found that Sea Buckthorn oil inhibits a variety of illness-inducing bacteria, including Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Typhoid bacillus, E.coli, and Bacillus dysenteriae, she says. Trattner recommends taking 10ml/day of Sea Buckthorn oil a day to keep your immune system healthy (she likes the organic Charma Vi).

| "Ginger contains over a dozen anti-viral properties helping to fight some of the viruses that cause colds and flu," says Lynn Anderson, Ph.D., a natural health expert and author of "Recipes for Health, Happiness, Sex and Love."
Research has shown that ginger has antibacterial properties, and may be helpful in preventing some infections. Buy it fresh or ground to boost your immunity this winter. Anderson recommends a tablespoon of fresh shaved ginger or a teaspoon of dried ground ginger a day. Try adding it to a morning smoothie, eating it with sushi or steeping it in some tea.

| The cold, dry air of the winter months can dry out your skin, as well as your sinuses, which isn't going to do your immune system any favors. Your nasal passages, sinuses and throat depend on moisture for their immune functions, says Cathleen London, M.D., a board certified family medicine physician and assistant attending physician at New York Presbyterian Hospital.
"When moist, the immune cells in those passages trap and attack viruses, bacteria and allergens and act as your body's first line of defense against airborne pathogens," she explains. Using a warm mist humidifier can help moisturize the air you breathe indoors. Dr. London recommends skipping cool mist ones since they have the tendency to grow molds and spew them into the air. London also suggests bolstering the health of your sinus and nasal passages by using a saline nasal rinse like Alkalol in the evening to help wash away what may have collected during the day.

Amazon: in the hands of a few
Thinking about writing something for a while, about my Debian work or about my daily stuff, sometimes you lack the time or the motivation to do so, I should kept this more up-to-date so people can follow a little bit what's going on with me... specially considering that I try to keep this diary neutral about non-technical subjects, but hey! it is somewhat hard to be neutral in every single situation.Thanks: beraldo and sysdebug. And I'm happy to discover that advogato upgraded my status, I'm now a Journeyer.
Anyway, I found that I should help to spread the word from a Brazilian colleague, Sulamita, she posted about democracy (or the lack of it) today. Two videos, about the Amazon Forest area and some of the crazy things we find in Brazil. You can watch the Brazilian Portuguese version or the English one.
A lot of people are not aware of some of the political problems that Brazil faces in the last 10 years, it is not like it doesn't exist before, but it is getting worst and worst and, for a while, I've been wondering...
A lot of friends want to leave Brazil as soon as they can, I love Brazil but I can understand their motivation.Or should I ask: Where's the love? (Black Eyed Peas Lyrics).
- Where do you find the desire to stay when you look around and you can't find fairness and equality? And if you look to the houses or places that should protect people, you realize that there is no protection?
- How do you keep the passion for a country with huge levels of corruption in public government, in police forces, in your law makers? And day after day, corruption schemas, robbery and law abuse are noticed on the television?
- What to do when you realize that the perception of the disloyal advantage is shared among your colleagues and that the feeling of failure dominates a great part of the population that could actually do something to change?
- Can anybody, or group of individuals, feeling alone, work to change that? How? Specially when you look around and although you know there are people willing to help they need to take care of their lives (money, food, family)?
And before somebody thinks that the entire Brazil is lost, that we are under a Civil War and that monkeys and other animals are walking on our Jungle streets in the middle of the cities, no it is not... yes, we need help; yes people need to join forces; yes, we need to find ourselves and fix it; but it is still a great country to live, and yes, I love it!

The aid is part of the $1 billion in assistance that the Obama administration has pledged to Egypt to bolster its transition to democracy after the overthrow last year of the former president, Hosni Mubarak. Its fate, however, was clouded by concerns over the new government's policies and, more recently, the protests that damaged the American Embassy in Cairo.
The United States Agency for International Development notified Congress of the cash infusion on Friday morning during the pre-election recess, promptly igniting a smoldering debate over foreign aid and the administration's handling of crises in the Islamic world.
An influential Republican lawmaker, Representative Kay Granger of Texas, immediately announced that she would use her position as chairwoman of the House appropriations subcommittee overseeing foreign aid to block the distribution of the money. She said the American relationship with Egypt "has never been under more scrutiny" than it is in the wake of the election of President Mohamed Morsi, a former leader of the Muslim Brotherhood (who just, BTW, informed the world that he has ordered the arrest the film maker who made that incendiary video, and we really shouldn't allow this kind of free speech here.)
"I am not convinced of the urgent need for this assistance and I cannot support it at this time," Ms. Granger said in a statement that her office issued even before the administration announced the package.Somehow I don't think that anybody in Congress feels like handing over a chunk of $ to Egypt right now. And handing it over right now, so soon after the attacks and the UN statements, really does make it look to the world like we're giving in to extortion.In addition to the $1 billion in assistance, the administration is working with Egypt to provide $375 million in financing and loan guarantees for American financiers who invest in Egypt and a $60 million investment fund for Egyptian businesses. All of that comes on top of $1.3 billion in military aid that the United States provides Egypt each year.
A senior State Department official said that the administration would consult with members of Congress in the days ahead "to make the case that this budget support is firmly in U.S. interests in seeing peace, stability and democracy in Egypt and the wider neighborhood."

Hey everyone, I'm somewhat new to Head-fi and have been looking round for something that would suit my jump into quality audio, and I feel like these three headphones have fit the bill for me.
Sennheiser HD-25
Audio Technica M50
V-Moda M80
I have spent many hours reading on all of them, and from what I have read, these three have all I want. Specifically, I want a can that shines with hip hop/rap and maybe some EDM, has enough portability to stuff in a bag and take it to bus journeys (anywhere in fact), that has enough clarity and detail for me to produce with, and yet can still produce a fun sound when you want it to. I also want isolation enough so that almost hear nothing but the music. If I found something for my requirements already, I wouldn't have started up a thread. I know the 'search' feature pretty well by now, but any thread which has a good answer would be great. Also, if there are any other cans you suggest that would fit my requirements better, I wouldn't mind knowing them :).

It's an accepted, albeit depressing, truth of the news business: people like bad news. Everyone says they don't, but in today's digital culture it's pretty easy to see. Post a happy story and a tragic or infuriating story at the same time online and track which one gets the most views, the most comments, is shared the most times.
But our digital culture and 24/7 news cycle also means there's no break from it. Last week, I spoke with a man who is concerned about what that's doing to us.
"It's been my observation that people have a tendency to become what they see," John Shimer said. "This can affect a whole culture, even in a society as large as ours."
Shimer said he was in Los Angeles recently during the manhunt for a former police officer who was exercising a vendetta against the department by picking off people from a hit list.
"Hundreds of emails were touting him as a hero," Shimer said. "I was asked why I thought that was, and I said it's because we have stopped telling the stories of real heroes. No one remembers what a real hero is anymore."
Shimer wants to change that by telling the stories of real heroes again. A longtime fundraising consultant for nonprofit groups, he said he has seen the work of "human angels" countless times.
"Human angels are people who consciously choose to live their lives selflessly to help other people. They do it as a lifestyle, day in and day out," he said. "I wanted to create a storytelling platform so these stories can be told and, in some way, uplift the human spirit."
The Angels Among Us Project aims to honor "human angels" across the U.S. and Canada by sharing their stories. On its website, www.angelsamongusproject.org, Shimer and his team have posted a few stories and videos of human angels, and offer ways people can submit stories of their own encounters with these Good Samaritans, as well as other ways to get involved.
The site is less than two months old, and there are only a handful of stories on it now. Shimer said more are "in the pipeline," but it takes time – stories are not posted immediately.
"We take the time to vet stories and properly prepare them to be told for the great stories they are," Shimer said. "There's a belief that goodness doesn't sell, but I don't believe that's true. I think what doesn't sell is bad storytelling. ...We have to take the time to tell these stories well."
Part 2 of the project will be to recognize select nonprofit organizations and provide them with tools to raise funds more effectively.
"Fundraising is what I know, and charitable organizations are struggling," he said. "The best way I can be an angel myself is to donate my time and to teach some of them how to organize for success and raise money."

Advogato could use more navigational features.
- Say I want to see who has given me ratings. AFAIK, I have to click the People link from the front page, wait for it to load and then find myself in the long list of people. So, I just realized that there is a link to my Advogato page from my "Account" page. One down, one to go :-)
- I occasionally want to reply to someone's diary. I can write my own diary entry and hope they read it, or I can magically discover their e-mail address and send them e-mail. It would be nice to be able to reply directly (one could have replies show up as links rather than full text in the diary).

I got a job, as Staff Technologist of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. They're down the street from me, so I'll be able to continue living in San Francisco.
As Staff Technologist, among other things, I need to identify civil liberties issues in standards and architecture (a la Lessig's Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace) and, in general, find civil liberties issues that are of interest to EFF.
I'm still interested in consulting work.
The LNX-BBC project has sent version 1.618 to Hong Kong for duplication. We will be giving out a few thousand of them at LinuxWorld Conference and Expo in San Francisco at the end of August.
You can also burn your own copy and try it out. I didn't choose the image that was sent to Hong Kong, so I don't know which it was yet: but you can try one of the latest of our nightly builds. (Mirrors would be welcome.)
Allegedly, we're giving out advance copies at the BayLISA picnic tomorrow (Sunday). I don't know how we're going to get there, because none of the developers who have cars are free tomorrow.
You can also buy business-card sized CD-R blanks for about $0.49 apiece from various CD-R media vendors. The 50 MB version works fine with our image, if you can't find us at LinuxWorld or in person.
I'm going to post a list of changes for 1.618 here. (I'm afraid there are probably a few more changes that we didn't manage to document.) Your suggestions for future releases are welcome; here's what I have in mind.
In other news
Welcome back to leonardr. (That reminds me: we included robotfindskitten in LNX-BBC 1.618.)
The new LNX-BBC web page is up. I'm going to send an announcement of the project to various places in the next few days. I also created an Advogato project for it.
There is an anonymous rsync module which provides access to our work in progress on that project. However, since our server is currently on an ADSL line, I'm not going to link to that here; if you're really curious to look at it, go look at our project mailing list archives. :-)
I'm also going to give a presentation on bootable Linux CDs (and the Linuxcare BBC and now also the LNX-BBC) at the upcoming LinuxWorld in San Francisco in August, and I'm interested in speaking about it at other conferences, too.
I have other news, which is continuing to go into my other diary, but I thought it would be good to poke back in here and mention what's new in my free software world.
I revised my personal page here to show that I'm looking for work.
I miss writing diary entries here -- it's great to watch the Recent diary entries page regularly and to have diary conversations with people.
But a good thing about keeping a diary on my own site is that I can be free to be verbose and off-topic without getting flamed (well, so far).
I have created a new independent Bootable Business Card project which is based on the Linuxcare Bootable Business Card; people who are interested in this might want to subscribe to our new mailing list.
I moved my personal diary to vitanuova.loyalty.org; I just wanted to remind people who might be interested (if they didn't read the recent diary entries page over the weekend).
Victimless crimes
ishamael wonders (basically) why police enforce laws against "victimless crimes". I thought of four general reasons, but I didn't finish writing up my description of those reasons, so I'll have to get back to everybody if I do.
I'm going to work with Andrew tomorrow and we're planning to have a small number of 1.5.9 or 220.127.116.11 to give out at a LUG meeting in Southern California later this month where Mike is speaking.
Now that I've been writing here for a year, I'm moving my personal diary to
Thanks to everybody who read it here. I may still post diary entries on Advogato about technical subjects.
Take care, everybody!
... that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties upon which I am about to enter.
(California Constitution, Article XX, Section 3)
But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.

The difficulty of the levels provides a challenge for the player to keep remaking his/her strategy in order to win the level. Not to mention that overcoming your scores is one thing that will keep you coming back for more. Just don't go near the multiplayer it just ruins the whole experience.
Lowly Worm
PC Games
The game is pretty frank up front as the plot of the game involves a club of rich people who want death as entertainment, hiring people to shoot each other in different places while they watch. And where do you find yourself? Sadly, as one of the players.
The game is pretty simple. To win you need points, more points, and even more points. Although the getting your points up is not based on how many coins or bananas you get, it is based on how accurate you shoot your opponent. Which reminds me, this is a shooting game, thus, you need to stay alive and at the same time kill the other and gain more points. And since points are the main concern here, you will want to keep your point multiplier up so that you can get more points. Getting the multiplier to come up is a bit tricky as you need to pull a nice stunt while shooting at an opponent, and you need to shoot more things on the wall to increase the multiplier. Be aware though that the multiplier vanishes faster if it reaches a higher level.
The entire game basically revolves around these principles while changing maps at the same time. The places are great and the destructible environment is well pronounced. Each map has its own pros and cons and thus you may want to fully utilize it to get the best results and of course more points for you.
The game has some problems as do all games have problems. For instance, we wished that there were more guns available. Even though there are 15 guns out there to choose from you would likely stick with a machine gun as it is really strong and aids in aiming.
The fact that getting a cover in this game is hard is also one of its pitfalls. Although it is a run and shoot game, you will need time to take some cover and reload. WhatÂ's the problem with getting a cover anyway?
The multiplayer experience is awful. The map is really huge for even 4 players to play at once. ItÂ's like searching for each other in a space and you are not even sure if you are on the right path. And since getting points is the aim, accomplishing the task is hard when we are talking about multiplayer since your opponents are not going to stand there and allow you to make all the matrix moves.
But overall the game is nice on single player and I believe its emphasis is on that aspect. The difficulty of the levels provides a challenge for the player to keep remaking his/her strategy in order to win the level. Not to mention that overcoming your scores is one thing that will keep you coming back for more. Just donÂ't go near the multiplayer it just ruins the whole experience.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Locational Privacy
View EFF's new Map of Domestic Drone Authorizations in a larger window.
Today EFF posted several thousand pages of new drone license records and a new map that tracks the location of drone flights across the United States.
When the Supreme Court said in United States v. Jones that planting a GPS device on a vehicle is a physical intrusion that amounts to a Fourth Amendment "search," the government should have gotten the memo: the police have to get a probable cause warrant issued by a neutral magistrate before installing one of those devices on a car to track a person's location. Amazingly, that hasn't stopped the government from coming up with new ways to argue that it can use GPS devices to track people's movements without a warrant. So we teamed up with the ACLU and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers in an amicus brief filed last week urging a federal appeals court to reject these arguments.
Location privacy took a hit in California yesterday when Governor Jerry Brown vetoed SB 1434, an EFF- and ACLU-sponsored bill that would have required law enforcement to apply for a search warrant in order to obtain location tracking information.
UPDATE: This morning, rather than face contempt charges, Twitter handed over the data requested by the government, under seal, to the New York Criminal Court. Twitter was faced with a terrible choice between giving ground on its fight for user privacy, or risk a potentially expensive contempt of court citation.
Location privacy generally, and cell site tracking specifically, have been two hot issues this year, particularly since the Supreme Court's January ruling in United States v. Jones that installing a GPS device on a car without a search warrant violated the Fourth Amendment. After Jones, we were optimistic that both courts and legislatures would begin to take location privacy seriously and demand warrants before granting law enforcement access to a map of our every movements over an extended period of time. But it hasn't turned out that way.

New Orleans native and former Black Panther activist Herman Wallace went to jail in 1967 at age 25 for a robbery he admits committing. In 1972, he was accused of the murder of a prison guard, a crime he vehemently denies, and placed in solitary confinement in a 6-foot-by-9-foot cell in the Louisiana State Penitentiary, also known as Angola. Wallace was subsequently convicted and given a life sentence. Fellow Black Panther Albert Woodfox was also placed in solitary and then convicted of the same guard's murder. A third Panther activist, Robert King, was placed in solitary at that time though eventually convicted of a different murder. Together the three men became famous as the "Angola Three."
Except for a brief period, Wallace has remained in solitary confinement 23 hours a day for 40 years, and he has never stopped protesting and appealing his murder conviction. Over the years, as doubts about the men's guilt accumulated— King was freed in 2001, and in February of this year a judge ordered the release of Woodfox— concern has also grown that Wallace and an estimated 80,000 other prisoners in the United States are being subjected to solitary confinement. In 2002, Wallace received a letter that asked an extraordinary question. Jackie Sumell, a young New York artist, wrote, "What kind of house does a man who has lived in a 6-foot-by-9-foot cell for over 30 years dream of?"
Herman's House is a portrait of a man who won't give up fighting for his freedom and, inevitably, a critique of a justice system that has confined him for decades in solitary— a condition that some decry as torture. The film is even more the story of an unlikely artistic collaboration that brought thousands of Americans face-to-face with the harsh reality of Wallace's confinement and went on to change profoundly the lives of both the Louisiana prisoner and the New York artist.
Sumell's initial query led to hundreds of letters and phone calls between her and Wallace. The first result was the art installation "The House That Herman Built," which made its debut in Germany in 2006. It featured a full-scale wooden model of Wallace's cell, in which gallery attendees were encouraged to spend time, and detailed plans for Wallace's dream home, which showed that his spirit remained strong. When the show hit London in 2008, Robert King, the former Black Panther, asked Sumell if she had thought her communications with Wallace would lead to such a celebrated art project. "No way. . . . It was just a game between me and Herman . . . my way of getting Herman out of Angola." Introducing that exhibit, she says, "I'm not a lawyer and I'm not rich and I'm not powerful, but I'm an artist . . . and I knew the only way I could get (Herman) out of prison was to get him to dream."
But as Herman's House recounts, the exhibition is only the first step in an unpredictable, inspiring, stressful and life-changing 12-year journey. Throughout the film, we hear audio of the phone calls between Wallace and Sumell, a riveting record of a prisoner's remarkable resilience after decades of solitude and of a young artist's determination to tell that man's story. Wallace finds a new friend and new hope, expressed in his growing, imaginative engagement with his dream house. Things take a dramatic turn when Wallace asks Sumell to make his dream a reality. Against the odds and with few resources, Sumell upends her life in New York to move to New Orleans, where she starts scouting land and planning to build a real Herman's house. The hope is that it will serve as Wallace's home when and if he's released, and that in any case it will be used as a center for troubled youth.
In New Orleans, Sumell finds a new life and an unexpected sense of community. She acquires her own little house, friendly neighbors and a dog. She grows close to Wallace's sister, Vickie, who has tirelessly supported her brother's efforts to be exonerated. But Sumell's imaginative leap of faith begins to take its toll, with a nerve-wracking hunt for land in a city still recovering from Hurricane Katrina and pressure to raise funds for the house as her own finances dwindle. She and Wallace's supporters feel the strain of knowing that he remains locked in a cell in the Elayn Hunt Correctional Center, where he sweats out the decision of the Louisiana Court of Appeals on whether to grant his last appeal.
Herman's House is a moving account of Wallace's unending struggle for freedom and the powerful expression it found in Sumell's project, which began as a game and turned into an interrogation of justice and punishment in America. It is also a testament to the transformative powers of art and imagination.

What I saw was a guy putting the team on his back in crunch time numerous times en route to a SB win. Take Eli off of the giants 2011 team and they're not elite. If you admit that team was elite, then the factor that made them so(Eli) must also have been elite.
So in my opinion, the correct way to put it would be that what made that giants team elite was the fact that a certain elite quarterback helped them overcome many obstacles on their way to the promised land. The 2009 jets were only a qb away from winning it all and reaching elite status, I bet if Eli had played on that team they would have won the SB.
So if Eli wasn't elite in 2011, neither were the giants, who rode him to a SB win. If the 2011 9-7 giants weren't elite, then neither were the 2009 jets.

Can I run a 12 volt motor off of a 24 volt power supply with adafruits motor shield, as long as I only use PMW from 0 to 50%? At fifty percent, that would be half voltage, but I know the voltage is really just 'on' or 'off'.
As a motor is not sensitive to voltage you can use PWM on it without exceeding any peak rating. The heat will be spread over the thermal time constant which is long compared to the PWM frequency.So yes you can.
I beg to differ.
I don't agree with that analysis.That assumes that when driven with PWM the peak current is equal to the stall current, that is simply not the case.
It also assumes a motor with negligible inductance, again not the case.
QuoteI beg to differ.Your analysis is correct, if the motor is held motionless. Your analysis is wrong, if the motor is allowed to move.
