Top Five Brooklyn Happenings
Brooklyn has long held a spot in the independent music firmament. In November 2009, New York Magazine anointed it the capital of the music scene with bands such as the Dirty Projectors, Grizzly Bear, and Animal Collective having sprung to the limelight from the borough.
A number of happenings in the classical world are establishing and reinvigorating Kings County music scene as well. Music labels, symphonies, operas and experimental venues are growing alongside the indie scene. Here are the top five storylines we are following in Brooklyn.
1. Alan Pierson to helm the Brooklyn Philharmonic. The artistic director and conductor of the new music collective Alarm Will Sound became artistic director this month to much fanfare. Already he has infused a renewed energy and excitement around the ensemble, which had to practically cancel its last two seasons, not seen in years. Already the organization is planning new music series to take advantage of Pierson's cross-genre expertise.
2. Issue Project Room's new space. In 2008, the experimental arts organization and incubator currently housed in the old American Can Factory was awarded a lease on a performance space at 110 Livingston – within close walking distance of the Atlantic Avenue subway stops. Last spring, the organization held a marathon of a first concert in the space with Morton Feldman's 6-hour String Quartet No. 2. With its first benefit there this spring, IPR comes another step closer in making the McKim, Mead and White-designed space its permanent home.
3. Roulette's new space. Meanwhile, another experimental music and arts presenter, Roulette, is jumping across the East River to the former YWCA space in Downtown Brooklyn. The group hopes to open in the restored 600-plus-seat theater (roughly nine times bigger than the Soho loft where it was founded 32-years ago), in July 2011.
4. Naxos to release Cantaloupe catalogue. The Brooklyn-based recording label founded by the Bang on a Can contemporary music trinity of Michael Gordon, David Lang and Julia Wolfe, announced in December that it will partner with Naxos to release the complete Cantaloupe catalogue (including previously web-only releases) as well as distribute the recordings globally. Suddenly, Cantaloupe's mission to provide "music that slips between the cracks," won't slip through the cracks as easily.
5. Robert Lepage to BAM. The heralded director of the Metropolitan Opera's Damnation of Faust and new Ring cycle ran into a few snafus this season with his hulking design. However, his production of Stravinsky's Nightingale and Other Fables for the Canadian Opera Company has already been audience- and critic-tested. The production, which comes to BAM in March and includes the US premier of the opera, could be Lepage's biggest success in New York. The COC has received rave reviews in its three previous incarnations: Toronto, Aix-en-Provence, and Lyon.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
Largely set in the broads of Norfolk, this sort of coming-of-age tale is centred around Nick, a twelve year old boy sent off to spend the summer holiday with his Dad's sister Dina. Which would be fine, but he doesn't remember ever meeting her.
Feeling abandoned by his parents, who are off to Hollywood as part of his Dad's work, Nick isn't sure how he's going to get along with his Aunt. I don't think I'll spoil anything by saying he settles in pretty well and soon makes friends his own age, as well.
John has done a great job of scene-setting and the locations are obviously somewhere he's spent time with his own family, giving a real flavour of the area and the local inhabitants. I have to say the story pulled me along - not that I was reluctant to read it or anything - and I did want to find out what happened to this almost teenage boy in a strange place with even stranger companions.
If you like stories about growing up and the travails of that period, this is likely to tickle your fancy. Or even if you don't. I think he's done a great job telling his story and I think his hints at a sequel are tempting.
I couldn't put it down!

Ok boys and girls, get ready to write this down.
First you need to make sure you have the following installed:
While that is running find out how big the dimensions of your screen is (Mine has a width of 1600 pixels by a height of 1200 pixels). Write these down you will need them later.Code:sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager wmctrl
Next, open compizconfig settings manager by clicking on System > Preferences > Compizconfig Settings Manager
At the very top is a button labeled Commands. Select it.
Wmctrl will do the window sizing via the following command:
Gravity: Leave this 0.Code:wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e <Gravity>,<X>,<Y>,<Width>,<Height>
X,Y: This is the top left position of the window (AKA: Where to start drawing the window.)
Width,Height: How large the window should be drawn.
Input the following (Adjusting the totals for the dimensions of your screen):
Command Line 0Command Line 1Code:wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,0,0,800,1155Command Line 2Code:wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,800,0,800,1155And the final steps. Switch to the Edge Bindings tab and select the following edges:Code:wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,0,0,1600,1155
Run Command 0 - Left
Run Command 1 - Right
Run Command 2 - Top
Last step: Click Back and then click on General Options. Set your Edge Trigger Delay to something you find comfortable with. Mine is set at 400.
Only disadvantages I have come across is that if you let the cursor hover too long over a hot point you will accidentally start resizing whatever window you have active. Also, there is a quirk with some windows that will not allow them to resize to the correct size (I am assuming due to the size of the widgets within the window).

text: Aamir Khan's Dangal has impressed the entire world. People are constantly talking about how it grabbed the imagination of the audience and the reason why it is breaking records. Major credit is being given to Aamir's thoughtful execution of his part and the debutantes, Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Sheikh, whose hard-work to get in the soul of their characters was quite visible onscreen. But veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah believes it is not the first time. The actor is in awe of Aamir Khan and has all the good words for him.Naseer had an exclusive chat. When asked about the transition in the Indian film industry with supporting characters coming at par with the leads, Naseer took the example of Aamir's film. He said especially the ones where Aamir gets involved more than an actor, giving importance to supporting roles becomes his priority everytime.Urging other stars to follow Aamir's league, he said, "If you study Aamir's films, the one he is involved in and has been responsible for, you will always see convincing and powerful supporting roles. I've been trying to credit Aamir for it because it cannot be just coincidence that right from Lagaan,Sarfarosh and so many other films, they all are complete scripts. Though he has been the focus of all such films, he made sure he has interesting roles played by good actors. It is not something that's witnessed often, but it should be. Most of our stars are pretty insecure. They make sure that apart from them, the others actors are mediocre but Aamir is an exception."Aamir Khan's wrestling drama has crossed Rs 300 crore collections in the domestic market. After surpassing Sultan and Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Dangal is moving towards taking over PK to become the all time highest grosser in Hindi cinema.Naseeruddin Shah is currently busy shooting for his next film titled The Hungry. It is based on the play by William Shakespeare. He will also appear in a supporting role in the upcoming film, Ok Jaanu. On being asked if, in real life, he would suggest the couples go ahead for live-in relationships, he said, "I would have done the same thing in real life. I did the role because of Shaad (Ali). It was great fun to get directed by him. The character was also charming. I was happy to play it as it was completely painless. Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapoor are wonderful in the film."He added, "I don't know how important my role is in the film. But in real life, I would give a thumbs up to it. You can't tell these kids today about how they should lead their lives. They have to work on their own equation. You can't advise them on their relationship. And that's what I follow in my personal life as well."

America's ambassador to Britain said today that Syrian dictator Bashar Assad should stand trial rather than get safe passage out of the country.
In an exclusive interview with the Evening Standard, Louis Susman disagreed with David Cameron's proposal to offer sanctuary to Assad to end the bloodshed. "I think he has to go and in my judgment he is going to have to face the world on his crimes," said Mr Susman.
The ambassador, a close friend of Barack Obama, said the president would feel "liberated" after winning a second term, and predicted his priorities would be the deficit, the economy, creating citizenship opportunities for some immigrants and tackling climate change.
He said the relationship between Mr Obama and Mr Cameron was very close and they would chat about putting their children to bed alongside heavyweight topics like Afghanistan.
He revealed that the president is likely to take up teaching and writing when he finally quits the White House.Reuse content

Wish Cunneyworth Luck. He Will Need It
Canadiens general manager Pierre "The Ghost" Gauthier proved his desperation when he fired respected assistant coach Perry Pearn. That sent a message to head coach Jacques Martin that he would be next.
Montreal kept lumbering along at a .500 pace, so Gauthier fired Martin, too. He installed English-speaking Randy Cunneyworth as the next coach -- put him in an almost impossible situation.
The Canadiens just aren't good enough. They lack the size and talent needed to skate with the NHL's better teams.
The loss of top defenseman Andrei Markov to further knee problems was a killer, but that's not the only issue. The addition of defenseman Tomas Kaberle could help some, if he is interested in the gig, but he came at an extreme contract cost.
The Habs played a boring style under Martin, but that defensive-minded approach helped goaltender Carey Price get his game back on track. That approach kept the Canadiens viable, at least until they drifted away from the playoff race this season.
Montreal Gazette scribe Dave Stubbs notes that the new coach has a big job on his hands:
Now it is Cunneyworth, by necessity a Martin disciple while his assistant, who must take this often disorganized crew on the road for six holiday-season games and try to make its sum greater than its parts. That challenge begins Monday night in Boston against the quite excellent Bruins.
The new coach arrives cursed, in the view of some, by his unilingualism, and with the buy-no-green-bananas label of "interim" in his title.

Preserve Monitoring Program
Volunteer Preserve Visitation Committee Members
We need your eyes, ears and muscles! With many preserves to manage around the Commonwealth, it's not always possible to monitor them as often as we'd like. Our goal is to form volunteer visitation committees at our public access preserves to conduct routine surveys of the preserve and note visitor activities. Committee members will also help to remove debris, fallen branches or overgrown vegetation from trails as needed with hand tools.
We are looking for long-term committed people to monitor between four and six times a year. For a more detailed job description download our Volunteer Visitation Committee flyer (pdf, 610KB).

Island Steward: Eastern Shore / Virginia Coast Reserve
The Island Steward is a volunteer position best suited for a person who lives on the Eastern Shore of Virginia who visits the Nature Conservancy's barrier islands by their own means and would like to serve as a Conservancy representative on these occasions OR a person who is interested in volunteering to distribute educational brochures at seaside boat ramps on weekends, especially holiday weekends, throughout the summer.
The steward is an official representative of the Conservancy's Virginia Coast Reserve program, which manages several islands along the Atlantic coast, and educates island visitors about the sensitive natural resources of the barrier islands by talking with visitors and handing out brochures as needed. The steward's educational efforts focus on, but are not limited to, breeding shorebirds and colonial waterbirds. Duties include:
- Attend annual training sessions at The Nature Conservancy office in Nassawadox, typically held in early spring.
- When on the islands and engaging in stewardship responsibilities, educate visitors about the sensitive natural resources on the islands through casual conversation and distribution of informational literature.
- Report incidences of use-policy violations immediately to Conservancy staff.
Commitment: No regular island visitation schedule will be set; steward responsibilities will be on an on-going, opportunistic basis, when stewards choose to visit the islands. Stewards interested in volunteering at boat ramps can set their own schedule and report days and hours spent to Conservancy staff.
Qualifications include:
- Local eastern shore resident
- Excellent communication skills which can positively and effectively, yet casually, teach all island visitors
- Desire to help protect the biodiversity of the Virginia Coast Reserve through education of island visitors.
- Must have transportation to get on and off the islands, as well as familiarity with the local waterways unless only interested in volunteering at boat ramps
If interested please contact Jen Dalke, volunteer program manager, at email@example.com or 434-951-0572 (w) or 540-335-1302 (c).

Global shares rise, investors hope for Greece progress
By Ryan Vlastelica
NEW YORK (Reuters) - World shares advanced modestly on Wednesday as policymakers in Europe reassured markets that a deal on releasing emergency aid to Greece was close, while a cease-fire in the Middle East further boosted optimism.
Gains were limited going into the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, however, as the failure of European lenders to come to an agreement on Greece kept investors cautious. Trading was extremely light ahead of the U.S. trading holiday on Thursday.
Euro zone finance ministers, the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank will gather again on Monday, after nearly 12 hours of talks overnight in Brussels failed to produce a consensus on how to shrink Greece's debt.
After the meeting ended, French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said a deal was just "a whisker away," while European paymaster Germany said a plan was being developed to provide Greece with funding until 2016.
"European exchanges themselves are doing OK, so investors are saying 'We didn't really expect a resolution (on Greece), just kind of learning to live with it,'" said Peter Jankovskis, co-chief investment officer at OakBrook Investments LLC in Lisle, Illinois.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI gained 48.38 points, or 0.38 percent, at 12,836.89. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX was up 3.22 points, or 0.23 percent, at 1,391.03. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC was up 9.87 points, or 0.34 percent, at 2,926.55.
U.S. investors digested the latest economic data, including weekly jobless claims that met expectations and a final read on November consumer sentiment that was below forecasts.
Market participants remained anxious about automatic tax and spending changes - known as the "fiscal cliff" - poised to take effect in the new year, though policymakers are not expected to return to negotiations until after Thanksgiving. Continued...

With petrol prices sky-high, the AA says 76 per cent of motorists have decided to cut down on driving. You could save money by hitching a lift to work (liftshare.com/uk). Alternatively, tap your postcode or town into petrolprices.com or use its iPhone app and you can see just how wildly varied prices of petrol and diesel can be in your area. Android phone owners can download the acar app which tracks fuel mileage and costs and keeps a check on the general expenses of your vehicle. And for those who prefer the train, this link ind.pn/trainoffers has the latest rail offers. You can sign up to be informed the moment advance tickets become available at thetrainline.com/ticketalert.
Phone bills
Calling 0870 and 0845 numbers can be expensive. Dial from a mobile phone and you can expect to pay through the nose (although Vodafone has announced that the cost of phoning 0800, 0845 and 0870 numbers is falling from 35p per minute to 12p). Use saynoto0870.com instead, it directs its readers to cheaper landline alternatives.
During peak periods last Christmas, a delivery lorry left the Amazon distribution centre once every three min and 23 seconds. This year, hundreds of thousands of people will once again visit this giant internet retailer but if you start scouring for gifts now, you could bag yourself a bargain. Using camelcamelcamel.com (so good they named it three times), you can copy and paste an Amazon item's URL and discover how the price has fluctuated. Click "track" and the website will keep an eye on the price, sending you price-drop alerts. Just be ready to pounce. For food and grocery shopping, try mysupermarket.co.uk which compares prices at Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's and Ocado.
The auction site eBay might now be the refuge of big, high-street brands taking advantage of its "Buy Now" facility, but it's still chock full of individual sellers. Some of whom, erm, aren't very good at spelling. Canny buyers can take advantage of this fact by using the aptly named goofbay.com as well the likes of typozay.co.uk and fatfingers.com in scouring these badly written listings. These sites pick up on iPoods, camaras and Dizney items that regular eBay searchers would miss. More bargains can be had at nobids.net which looks for items that are about to end without a bid.
UK travel watchdog Abta says that 53 per cent of consumers booked their foreign holiday through a high-street travel agent or tour operator over the past year. Booking online can be a headache with so many websites offering different prices for the same hotels and trips, so use a comparison website such as hotelscombined.com, which trawls through a host of major travel sites from ebookers to lastminute.com for the best prices. There are also deals aplenty at halfpricehotels.co.uk. And if you are booking a Travelodge, play around: often booking each night separately online gives a better price than booking two or more in one block.
With more than 500 million users, Microsoft's Office software suite dominates 94 per cent of its market but that doesn't mean there are no viable alternatives. Far from it, in fact. Most obviously, Google's cloud-based home office system Google Docs lets you write documents and create spreadsheets online and share your work with others. Google Docs are now available for use offline too. For those who don't worship at the church of search, you can try the brilliant LibreOffice (www.libreoffice.org), a full productivity suite that won't cost you a bean. There's even a brilliant, free download alternative to Adobe Photoshop called GIMPshop. Despite the name, it's a smart choice.
There are plenty of ways to enjoy a cheaper night out with only a little bit of online digging. Freecinematicketsuk.co.uk is the place to go for special previews, especially if you live near a major city. The online equivalent of the West End's theatre discount stalls can be found at discounttheatre.com. But there are plenty of options for those who like to stay at home for fun instead. Use the site megashopbot.com to find you the cheapest price for books, games, CDs and DVDs.
Excluding fuel, £1 of every £10 spent on retail purchases is spent online. It's not a money saver, but for those keen to receive their purchases as quickly as possible Shutl promises web shoppers for companies including Warehouse, Argos and Karen Millen that it will deliver within 90 minutes of ordering.
But it's a competitive market which is why many offer cashback and points schemes aimed at rewarding savvy shoppers. By signing up to sites such as quidco.com and mutualpoints.com, you can search for a retailer and see the incentives they are offering in return for a sale. Buying clothing from Tesco.com, for example, will earn you 5.05 per cent with the well-rated Topcashback.co.uk.Reuse content

Wildflower honey adds delicate fragrance and subtle sweetness to this nutty dessert, but almond or regular honey can be used as a substitute.
"I've always imagined that baklava would be so difficult that I never dared to try it," says jrspinz44fl. "This recipe changed my mind and has become a keeper. It's just a little tricky to work with phyllo dough...but keeping it covered while working on the layers helps so much. It got rave reviews and I've been asked to make it many times. Give it a try!"

Objects that fly using wings get their lift by taking advantage of Bernoulli's principle. Bernoulli's principle says that as a fluid's velocity increases its pressure decreases.
Airplanes and birds have an airfoil shape to each of their wings to produce lift. The airfoil shape produces unequal lengths across the top and bottom of the wing. Air splitting at the front of the wing must rejoin at the back of the wing so as not to create a vacuum. Since the top surface is curved upward and is longer it forces the air to move faster across the top than the bottom. Faster moving fluids create less pressure, so the bottom of the wing creates greater pressure producing lift.
Racing cars use this principle to produce better traction. They place an airfoil on the back of the car but with the curved surface on the bottom. This is commonly called a spoiler. With the curved surface underneath, greater pressure is generated on the top forcing the back of the car down onto the road.
There are four major forces involved in
1. Lift
2. Weight (gravity)
3. Thrust
4. Drag
In order to fly an object must be able to generate enough lift to overcome its weight. To accomplish this, air must be moving across the wing. This can be done by pushing the wing through the air such as with a jet engine or by moving the air acroos the wing such as with wind. The opposing force of ligt is gravity.
Weight is the force of gravity. It is a continous downward force that flying objects must constantly overcome to stay aloft. Objects can glide for a very long period of time but will eventually fall back to earth if they are don't generate enough lift to overcome gravity. The opposing forve of gravity is lift.
Thrust is the force that moves the object forward. This is generated by a jet engine, propellar or the backward push of a bird wing. To move forward the flying object must overcome drag. To help reduce drag, airplanes are streamlined and most bird shapes have evolved to be streamlined. The opposing force to thrust is drag.
Drag is actually friction between the moving object and the air. It is also referred to as air resistence. The more streamlined, or aerodynamic, an object is the less air resistennce the object generates. The opposite force of drag is thrust.

Chinese cooking, like most of Asia, focuses first on a starch like rice or noodles, then adds an accompaniment of meat or seafood, rather than meat first, starch and vegetables second, as found in European-influenced cuisines. Recipes in China are as diverse as the language, with its 80,000 characters, and Chinese immigrants have brought this complex culinary heritage to almost every region of the world.

These large meatballs are supposed to resemble the head of a lion, especially when served with cabbage leaves draped over them as a "mane." They are often served on special occasions to symbolize happiness.
Makes 4 servings
2 tablespoons dried shrimp
1 pound lean ground pork
1/4 cup water chestnuts, coarsely chopped
1 green onion (including top), thinly sliced
1 egg, lightly beaten
1-1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1-1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing wine or dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon sugar
vegetable oil for deep frying
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1-1/2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
pinch of white pepper
8 large Chinese (napa) cabbage leaves
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Soak shrimp in warm water to cover for 30 minutes; drain. Mince shrimp and combine with remaining meatball ingredients. Set aside for 30 minutes. Shape into 4 large meatballs, each approximately 2-1/2 inches in diameter.
Set wok in a ring stand and add oil to a depth of about 2 inches. Over high heat, bring oil to 350 degrees F. Add meatballs and cook for 3 minutes or until golden brown. Lift out and drain on paper towels. Remove all but 2 tablespoons oil from wok and set wok over high heat until hot. Add ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 5 seconds. Add meatballs, broth, sugar, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Place cabbage leaves over meatballs. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes longer. Sprinkle with sesame oil before serving.
Tip: If a thicker sauce is desired, transfer cabbage and meatballs to a platter with a slotted spoon. Add 3 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 1/3 cup water to sauce, and cook, stirring, until sauce boils and thickens.

How many watts of amplifier/speaker do I need to listen to talk radio and postcasts from my Ipod in the shower?
Since I never listen to music I'm only planning on one channel. I know this is a hard question to answer definitively due to things like speaker efficiency but I'm just looking for a general idea. I'm only going to raise the volume just enough to hear it but I want it to be able to definitely hear it. In other words I don't want the circuit and speaker to be maxed out in order for me to hear it. It needs to be battery powered if it matters. Sound quality isn't of particular importance although I'd like to be able to understand what they're saying.
. Because of the "room" acoustics, the high end will be emphasized, so you may want to boost the bass (or attenuate the treble) a little.

"Right now, we have [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and I do not think a player like Balotelli is needed", Ancelotti told reporters.
"Ibra could work with Mario, but this is not the question because we also have [Ezequiel] Lavezzi, [Kevin] Gameiro, [Jeremy] Menez, who can play as a second striker."

Smart bastards mocked me!
They have been seeing me every day on the beach, pointing this "black thing" (ie camera) in their direction… so they assumed I am attracted to them in some way.
They also know I usually carry tuna sandwiches.
So yesterday, while on the beach (another post on this coming up) they congregated upon my arrival. Baffled by their proximity and willingness to please me, I took advantage to leave my car unattended and draw in close for photos.
Meanwhile, one of them sneaky bastards flew into my car and stole the bag! ZOMG!
Then they flew while I was trying like mad to take photos of them… and then I noticed a familiar bag high in the sky O___O
I went back to my car. IMBECILES!
The thing later dropped the bag close by.
I felt ISO-certified dumb, LOL!

Barclays index unit sale may fetch near $1 billion: sources
By Mike Stone
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Barclays Plc's planned sale of its index business could yield close to $1 billion for the British bank, more than double what had been expected, according to people familiar with the matter.
The long-anticipated sale of the Index, Portfolio and Risk Solutions (IPRS) business kicked off in early June, and several bidders recently progressed into the auction's second round, the people reported.
Before Barclays provided detailed financial information on the index business, potential bidders had estimated the unit to be worth above $400 million, the people said. The business includes a basket of over 98 major indexes, according to the unit's website.
But the business showed much higher than expected revenue figures during early due diligence, and now potential buyers are valuing the unit at nearly $1 billion, the people said, asking not to be named because the matter is not public.
The estimated price tag reflects a multiple of over eight times revenues, which is in line with precedent transactions for index businesses, the people said.
A Barclays representative declined to comment.
The U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which Barclays bought as part of the Lehman Brothers acquisition during the financial crisis, is among the platform's best-known offerings.
In addition, the Barclays business includes a risk solutions software tool used by institutional investors to perform analysis of their holdings. Continued...

old Kenmore chest freezer - worth replacing starter relay?
The other day, I picked up a free Kenmore chest freezer (6 cubic ft) through Craigslist. The guy told me it worked...well, it doesn't. Anyhow, it appears to be pretty old (model 10068, can't find it listed online). I had it plugged in overnight and it didn't get cold. After reading some troubleshooting FAQs online today, I tested the starter relay and found it to be defective. Also, the compressor felt hot to the touch after the unit had been plugged in for hours. Is this normal?
Is it worth buying a new relay for this freezer (which didn't cost me anything but the gas I burned to go pick it up)? I see that one of those Supco 3N'1 relays is cheaper than the original starter relay piece (MM5-46S). Or should I just dispose of this thing? In case it's relevant, I plan to use this with an external temperature controller to keep it in the mid-60s for fermenting homebrewed ales.
Thanks for any input.

It increasingly is clear that American democracy is being battered by the forces of Islamist radicalism who have formed an alliance with LIBERAL DEMOCRATS! Thank God we have Republican patriots in Congress working to defend our right to kill any damn radical seeking to end the American way of death. Every Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to oppose a new law that requires anyone selling guns to be compelled to have his rights abused by being subjected to a background check. Senator Schumer knows full well that his law is designed to create a national registry as to who in America possesses a weapon. He wants to end our right-as Americans– to be able to blast to death anyone who threatens our lives.
The next step is sending FBI Cossacks bursting into our homes and seizing our beloved guns. First they came for our guns, next they will come for our daughters, and then they will come for our wives, and eventually, they will come for YOU!

Black Swan
January 28th, 2011
Natalie Portman is unmissable as Nina Sayers, the good girl ballerina who is forced to explore her darker side in order to play the coveted lead role as both the virginal white and the evil black swan. The plot elicits desire, rivalry and paranoia and gives an insight (although with a Hollywood spin) into just how dedicated ballet dancers are when at the top of their game. Portman herself trained for a whole year to achieve the moves and the slight frame of a ballet dancer. To an untrained eye it would be difficult to tell her apart from a dancer that had been training all of their life. Although now heavily pregnant we're sure she's happy to leave the pliés and pirouettes to the experts!
Maybe not quite as extreme as the troubled ballerina, but we think that all women have a naughty side and maybe a few other sides too, good and bad. You might have a fun side, a quiet side, a girlie side and a side that just appears from no-where when the handle to the kitchen cupboard door falls off and you simply dig out the screw driver and slap it right back on again. And that's one of the great things about being a woman we can be strong, caring and sexy all at the same time. So why not explore the different sides to your persona, what will you be this weekend, girlie, fun, glamorous, naughty, flirty or elegant? Just don't go making friends with any highly strung ballet instructors or mean girls who pretend to be your friend!

Am I doing too much 5-days post-op?
- Last updated: 4 years ago
I had BR surgery last Friday, home that afternoon, everything went GREAT. My drains were removed Monday. Besides the physician appt, I accompanied mom on a 45 minute grocery trip today (I slept for 2 hours after!). Otherwise I am resting BUT could I be doing too much by moving my arms? I have not had much pain at all -- in fact the only sensation I have is itchiness and a feeling of "let down" (for those of you that remember breast feeding). The first 48 hours i tried to not raise my arms much at all, but as I have tested my limits (with reach, not weight of items) I have noticed that I am not in pain when i reach. Is pain the only reason we are advised not to reach, or should I avoid raising my arms because of potential complications? (And by "reach" I mean raise my arms above shoulder height). I can't find any mention of this in my literature from the doc, except for the patient educator telling me to plan on not being able to reach anything above shoulder height... but was it because I shouldn't or because it would hurt?? Thanks for any input! I only wish I had found this site sooner... and taken some decent before pictures :P PS: I am 5'5", 200 llbs, and was a 38H prior to my 7/29 BR surgery. I think he removed approx 650-700 cc's - a total of 3.38 lbs. I am expected to be a D which has been scary to look down at because now I can see my big stomach better than ever (I did not get boobs until i was 22 and then I also gained 60 lbs. Weight has left and returned, boobs wouldn't budge; I am 32). MH

Thanks for the link.
I got that diagram off a website that said it was for a 2006 RXT lol so i dunno.
Yeah everything is functioning fine (outside of water) as far as i can tell. The reverse lever works and pulls down the reverse gate. I think it might be the spring pulling the lever down to the Forward position. It still goes into the Forward position but there is no pressure on the handle forcing it down, where as im pretty sure before hand the handle used to 'snap' down into Forward.
I had a look at that spring on ebay, and in the description it says it has superseded two part numbers which are not in production anymore.
Perhaps the spring that broke off my ski isn't in production and i need to get this new spring type

There is a pattern there. Perhaps you'd think that Iran is different from Iraq and Syria, which is in many ways true. But the same rule applies: Israel and the US — and many countries in the region — are dead set against Tehran owning nuclear bombs.
So will Israel attack Iran?Sponsored Ads
It all depends on whether the time is right and on how real is the threat of Iran making a bomb. The tipping point may be reached, I would say, if Iran decides to move its nuclear facilities to secure areas, as in the mountainous parts of the country where a missile strike could become useless. If the Iranians show any sign of moving in this direction, then the possibility of a strike is not to be ruled out.

You should be the official AutoFair photographer. The images you capture artfully portray the beauty of any automobile. If you're interested I could do some asking as to who would be the correct person to contact at the speedway. Thanks again for displaying your Supra and supplying the community with so many great pictures.
Scotty, I think they are 8.5 and 9.5 but dont hold me to it... i dont think they come in different sizes/offsets other than diameter but as you can see they fit damned well. And i will not be upset those also come in a black that i kinda liked and thought about trying out some time.
Scott, first of all, thank you for putting in all the effort and hard work to make all of this happen twice a year! The pics wouldnt be possible w/out the work you but it Second of all, thanks for the compliment man and you are more than welcome for the pics! I feel very passionate about my photography and love doing it. As far as doing something like for the speedway/autofair, i would absolutely love to have the opportunity. Being a fulltime engineer doesn't really give me the opportunity of getting myself out there to get the kind of exposure i would want and at a show with so many awesome rides I think I could do pretty well at

Sorry for all the bother man. I tried to send you a PM, but your box was full .. It's just that wheel sizes, and tire sizes wear my brain out when looking for a great combination. You said your rears were 265's. Are they a 40 series? 35 series? Are the fronts still the stock 235/45 combination? Are these 17", or 18"? I just want to make sure I don't waste any money, and get the right thing the first time if I do it! Thanks again in advance, and again, beautiful car, and awesome pics!

Great thread...I love the pictures. You and I have a lot in common! I am an avid shutter-bug too, trying to get it going full time, but I am sure you know how that is!?! Real jobs pay more and have better benefits than our 'hobbies'...lol I am in the High Point area here in NC and just bought a BMW M3 with a 1JZ swap and have been browsing the Supra forum here to get some info on it. I bought it with one of the turbos blown, so it is a work in progress. Anyway, GREAT pictures!

I do it every day, sometimes 20 to 30 times. I move from shop to shop, taking what I need, what I don't need. As long as I come away with something, I'm OK. On a bad day, I rack up hundreds of pounds' worth of clothes, makeup, food and jewellery. The more I get, the better the high.
I've done it thousands of times, but I've been caught only a few. I'm not proud. I know it's wrong and I feel awful about it. Just not enough to stop. I used to put it down to greed, but it feels like more than that. It's an addiction. If I'm feeling stressed, it's like pulling a trigger and the next minute I'm in a shop putting stuff in my bag to make me feel better.
Friends who find out what I do are shocked. I don't drink or do drugs; I have a degree, dress nicely, carry myself well. But I see it as my private thing, my release. It's my way of self-soothing, like a security blanket, which in turn becomes a sort of self-harming, a way of confirming in my own mind that I'm a bad person.
It all started when I was a toddler. My mother used to steal in front of me and my sisters – her little girls would all watch, not knowing that what she was doing was wrong. One of my first memories is of her taking food from supermarkets: steak, expensive joints of lamb. She wouldn't try to conceal it. My dad would do it, too, for no reason. They never needed to, they both worked, but I suppose they enjoyed the risk.
As a child, I felt I led a double life. At school I was intelligent, popular and funny; I would make people laugh. At home I was miserable. My parents argued and I would have to listen to their problems. I felt isolated from my sisters, who were much younger than me.
I didn't have much pocket money, so I would shoplift and give things to friends. As a child, you know stealing isn't allowed, but after what I had witnessed, it seemed normal to me. Confusingly, my parents were moral in other ways – they worked hard and taught us to pull together as a family – but stealing was a big weakness, and they passed it on to me.
When my parents split up, the stealing increased. It got me through university, kept me ticking over financially. Then it started to become more compulsive; I would feel the urge rising in me, the need to go to the nearest shopping centre and pinch.
What I decide to steal doesn't really make sense to me; most of it I never use. Fake tan, for instance – I've taken more than 250 bottles of the stuff over the years, and never once used it. They're all lined up at home, unopened. It's all connected to the way I feel at the time. I take the tanning lotion when I'm disappointed in myself, so the bottles have stacked up. I have a pile of costume jewellery, too. I don't know why. It's all down to this awful habit I have of hating myself. If my mood is low, if I'm anxious or I've had an argument, these are the times I'll really go for it.
While I'm stealing, I feel almost euphoric but also disconnected, as if I'm dreaming or someone else is doing it. This feeling will last for a while, but then a dread realisation kicks in and my mood plunges. I'm painfully aware what I do is wrong, yet I feel I have very little control.
Things escalated after my partner left me for another woman. The feelings of rejection and anger created a void, one that I filled with more stealing. At my lowest, when I felt most depressed and detached, I would shoplift all day on autopilot.
I have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder; the symptoms can include feelings of emptiness and impulsive behaviour. It is a relief at least to have an explanation for my behaviour.
I've been caught three times, and on my last court appearance I was given a conditional discharge. The magistrate said he would give me one more chance. If I'm caught again, I will go to prison, which I just can't face.
I've started counselling now and have been given a mentor and a social worker. I'm working towards a maths qualification and for the first time I feel inspired to stop. I believe my addiction is treatable, even though I'll probably always have to fight the urge. I've never been offered anything like this before and I'm learning that I'm not all bad. I can be helped.

The AIMS Power 30 Amp Solar Charge Controller is here! It's been revamped and improved to hold up to strenuous and continuous use. With simple and easy to use input and output terminals, this charge controller is perfect for the DIY project.
This charge controller is capable of 400 watts continuous charge on a 12 volt solar system and 800 watts on a 24 volt solar system and will provide 30 amps per hour back into your batteries. To be used in conjunction with your 12 volt or 24 volt solar panels, this charge controller normalizes the volatile Photo Voltaic energy you get from the solar cells and make it into clean, usable DC Power to charge the batteries.
The Charge Controller comes with a digital display with selectable Amperage or Voltage monitoring. It's small size means mounting options are limitless. At just under 7 ½ inches by 5 inches, this solar charge controller can fit in the tightest of confines, making it easy to mount in a vehicle, on a boat, in a cabin or wherever you deem fit.
The Charge Controller is equipped with Solar Over-Current protection, limiting the amount of voltage delivered to the batteries to their respective voltage limits. It also comes with reverse polarity protection, short circuit protection and high temperature protection.
This is perfect for charging Gel and AGM style batteries throughout the daytime hours and is a great alternative to fossil fuel consuming gas and diesel generators.
Designed for use with 10 awg cable or larger, the 30 amp solar charge controller saves you money on copper as well.

text: I have two lifetime Series 3 (OLED) TiVos. One is now caught in the dreaded reboot loop. I opened it up and it indeed has a bulging cap. I plan to take care of this with a local shop. In the meantime, can I possibly take the hard drive out of this rebooting TiVo and put it in the other working Series 3 (OLED)? Then transfer the programs on it to one of my other networked TiVos (2 Premieres and a TiVo HD)? Basically, are programs tied to my account or are the programs tied to the rebooting TiVo's motherboard somehow? I realize I will also FULLY test this hard drive as well to make sure it is OK and not a failing drive.

Wonderful holiday to remember, I hope to cruise again !: Azamara Quest Cruise Review by fan de vacances
Overall Member Rating
Wonderful holiday to remember, I hope to cruise again !
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Athens (Piraeus)
The size of the ship was perfect. As there were "only" about 500 guests we never had problems of queues for anything. The staff were ALL wonderful, from the cheerful and enthusiastic captain to the lowliest of the cleaning staff, and certainly not forgetting the restaurant and entertainment personnel: friendly faces everywhere, always helpful but never obsequious. I cannot understand why some reviews slate the food. We found it extremely good in both the Discoveries restaurant, where we hardly ever got to try the basic menu as the days specials were always so inviting, and the Windows cafe (buffet) where we often went in order to to eat outside. The service was so good, with explanations where asked for and wine and water topped up constantly.
We had a veranda stateroom, which was comfortable. We didn't feel squashed although it wasn't huge. We got to the chance to look around the other types of stateroom, and although the suites were a dream, I think our choice was the good balance of value for money: even though we spend little time on the veranda it was really nice having it. I think the only slightly disappointing thing on the ship was the pool which was really small. The other guests all seemed to be from English-speaking countries, I think mostly Americans, though also a fair number of British and Australians and smaller numbers from other places. Ages varied, but mostly adults. Few children and adolescents despite being in holiday time, and I don't think it would be much fun for them unless they were happy to spend all their time with parents etc. Most people were couples: a woman accompanied by her 3 children mentioned she felt rather "different" from everyone else. We didn't see much of the entertainment: having been out all day, after a leisurely evening meal, we just wanted to chill out in the evening, but I gather the quality was good. We did see the show with singer Helen Jayne who was excellent, and also enjoyed the 2 folklore evenings once Greek and once Turkish, with dancing & singing.
I would certainly not hesitate to recommend this cruise and have excellent memories and hundreds of photos to remind me ! Less
