Sometimes you get the best light from a burning bridge.
Sup.... yea it's a billet grill, I got a little E-Bay happy when I first got it. The stickers & everything... well I'm just putting those up there whenever I buy a new part for my subie, just to make me feel that I accomplished a little more each mod. OH... but everything's coming off when I get my (Drk Cherry) paintjob & CF hood. I'm taking the bottom grill & foglights out to make room for the FMIC & I'll get a Rollcall after the paintjob. Not really going for the sleeper look, just the "not your average WRX look"... you know?

"Roll Call"....... You never heard of roll call decals?
Might help you a little...
I will try not to be too harsh, mostly because you are a n00b and my guess is that you are still very young. Lose the blow off valve. Most of us agree that it causes more problems than its worth. Second point, lose the stickers. You call your WRX a sleeper, but the stickers make it anything but a sleeper.I think that its great that you want to mod, but you have had a little too much Mary J if you need stickers to make you feel that you have accomplished something after each mod. I don't want to call your carrice. I really really don't. However, the path that you are currently heading down is a one way ticket to the depths of RICE. Those taillights kill me. I am not trying to rip on your car, but I want you to understand that WRXs are a cut above most other cars. There is nothing wrong with stickers, body kits, BOVs, but think about them in great detail before you do them. Here is one of, if not THE sickest WRX here.....
Good luck kid, keep it tasteful!

FIRST OF ALL, to clear some up some apparent "confusion" in this thread:He's not going for the 'sleeper' look....nuff said!!!Originally Posted by Redsubie
SECOND OF ALL, I don't think any of y'all have any right to tell him what he should/should not do with his car. He's not talking about putting a park bench wing on or Fast&Furious decals. Just a few stickers, etc. Who knows, it may actually look NICE when it's done!!! Plenty of members on here have stickers, cleared taillights, all kind of crazy stuff done to their cars! Some even borderline rice. But y'all are being pretty judgemental IMO. Furthermore, yes the BOV is bad. We tell people ALL the time. But they continue to get them. As long as it's a recirculating one then fine. Some people will throw down $200 for a kazoo. So be it. But I think some of you are jumping on this fellow member's ass a little prematurely. His vision could turn out to be pretty cool, we'll just have to wait and see.
Everybody has different tastes/opinions/likes. And personally, I like the world better that way!

Yep. You know us...always jumping on someones ass a little prematurely.Originally Posted by Speedette
This is a debate I see in all of my car clubs. The easiest way around it is, ignore it. When someone does some aftermarket goodness to their ride that I am not so keen on, I ignore it. If they ask for opinions on what they did.... then I give the opinion.
I have my own ride to worry about. They can do whatever they want to theirs.
My advice.... if you dont like what they have to offer, nod your head when they talk, then laugh behind the curtain.

.... First of all I never feel that I have to explain myself or what I do with MY WRX to anyone, but I guess I could clear the air & enlighten the real "noobies". lol... first, how can you call me young when I'm almost 26 years old? I don't know weather to be thankful or pissed off? Anyway... for someone who's probably never been to Japan & seen what REAL SUBARU's look like, they look a lot like these.
Oh yea... & the HKS bov & TT I got for like $50 (american) in Japan before I left.... can't beat a sale...
When I went to local dealers & auto hobby shops to look at skylines, mr2's, rx-7's, silvias, 240's, evo's, & STI's most of them were rallied out w/ all kinds of stickers on it, but everyone doesn't have the same taste. If you ever do get to go to japan or even europe & experience the real "Import Scene" then maybe...... MAYBE you can give me advice on what a JDM Rally Spec. STI looks like... b/c that's what they are anyway(Rally Cars) just a little watered down. Until then keep reading about it in the magazines you read or ask me or someone else who know's better.

i think everyone on the site agrees "to each his own"
nice car again man
Some people need to actually read what was said before speaking. Thanks anyway though....

Early voting hours set across Ohio
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WTVN) -- Ohio voters will get two Saturdays and no Sundays to vote early in the statewide election this fall under a schedule set by the state's elections chief.
Secretary of State Jon Husted announced the times on Tuesday. The Republican says his directive reflects a proposal from the bipartisan Ohio Association of Election Officials.
"They plan that I announced today was actually not my own, it was created by the Republicans and Democrats that run elections at the local level," he said.
Early voting starts 29 days before Election Day. Early voting centers will be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the two Saturdays before the election. There will be no Sunday or evening voting which is a change from previous years.
"Early voting centers really weren't designed as a place where everybody went to vote, those were designed as a last option," he said.
Voters can vote absentee by mail for four weeks leading up to the election. Each registered voter will get an absentee ballot application mailed to them.
Husted has asked state lawmakers for the past three years to put the hours and days for early voting into law. The legislature has not adopted any plan.
"Equality and fairness is about giving every voter the same access to the polls and that's what we do with this proposal," he said.
Polls will also be open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Election Day.
Husted's opponent in the November election issued a statement blasting the move saying that one-size-fits-all solutions don't work. Sen. Nina Turner, a Cleveland Democrat, notes the largest county is 95-times the size of the smallest in Ohio. She thinks local elections officials need the flexibility to craft a system that works for their voters.
"There is no justification for arbitrarily denying the vast majority of Ohio voters' access to open polling places. The courts have previously spoken on this, but once again, our current Secretary of State is ignoring justice. It is a shame that the Secretary would not have committed his office's energy instead to implementing the outstanding court orders and administering the orderly and effective early voting process that has served Ohio voters so well since 2005. As Secretary of State, I will work to expand the voice of working families, not limit it."
Husted said he doesn't think there should be different rules for different Ohioans.
"Why should Mary Smith in one county have longer to vote than Mary Smith in another county?"

I'm a hard working tradesman and very friendly, easy to get along with and keeps to myself. Clean living, and fit, non smoker ( don't care if you do) loves a glass of wine on the weekends. Daz
Looking for a share house, i am clean and tidy but still relaxed. I have a budgie which would be nice if he could live with me too :) I currently work full time as a vet nurse. I do have a boyfriend but understand he would not be able to visit so this should not be a problem. I like spending my days off at the beach or having a few drinks with my friends.
I'm a Mental Health Professional and qualified Holistic Counsellor. I'm clean, quiet and considerate, enjoying a peaceful home life lived with others of a similar nature. Born and raised in Sydney, yet have been fortunate enough to have travelled and lived throughout Australia and in the UK. Interests encompass a love of nature, history and traditional martial arts, music, film and culture, as well as a keen commitment to a healthy lifestyle.
I'm easy going, have a positive outlook on life, I work hard, I'm reliable and I'm pretty clean and tidy. I enjoy music, movies and I love being outdoors especially when I'm skateboarding. I also enjoy catching up with friends, whether it be for coffee, a meal or to go out and catch some live music somewhere. Life is for livin', so I'm out there doin' it!!!
I am very reliable, always pay my bills and rent on time. I work full time in a stable job. Happy to split evenly. I have two very clean animals (cat and small hypoallergenic dog). I work in the industry so am very vigilant with them. I take my dog to work with me on occasions and he goes to day care on Fridays. I keep to myself a lot, I consider myself as clean and tidy and clean up my mess when I make it. I like a drink every now and then, don't mind if you smoke outside and clean the mess or if you don't smoke at all. I'm pretty easy going. I'd prefer one female housemate/friend who is an animal lover, loves having a chat over some wine and a cheese platter. I have lived with a housemate before until she moved out with her partner so know the ins and outs of sharing a place. I am recently single hence why I am looking for a housemate. I am looking to move out together so applying for a place now and moving out. If I am to share a place I would really like somewhere with my own bathroom and an enclosed yard as that's where my dog will be when I am not home.

Other challengers included Steve Stricker and Ernie Els (what is this, 1995?). Bubba Watson just barely made the cut, which is good news for tournament organizers but perhaps not for the gallery. Play continues Saturday afternoon.

Failure to thrive is a loose definition used to describe a baby or child who is not gaining sufficient weight in the early stages of life. The University of Maryland Medical Center claims that failure to thrive may be linked to low birth weight and chronic infections. According to the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, a baby's growth rate declines by one year and at this age they may become picky.
Formula or breast milk is all that your baby can digest up until the age of approximately six months. After this stage milk is still nutritionally beneficial because it delivers calcium, but you can begin to introduce other foods. The World Health Organisation recommends breast feeding up to the age of two.
The University of Michigan recommends that fruit not be given to babies under six months of age. Fruit contains a range of nutrients, including amino acids and fiber. There are various ways to deliver fruit into a child's diet. You can mix it with oatmeal, give small segments at snack time, make a mixed-fruit juice to drink or make a fruit smoothie. Avocados are a "heart-healthy" source of fat and a good option for healthy weight gain. Mashing up some avocado into a fine paste and mixing it with other fruit makes it easier to swallow.
Low-sugar cereals such as oatmeal and granola are a healthy way to aid weight gain. Mixed with fruit, oatmeal makes a delicious, healthy breakfast and can be served hot or cold. It can be combined with milk for extra calcium.
Low-fat cheese and cottage cheese are excellent choices for infant weight gain. Avoid cheese that is high in fat and salt, and always read the nutritional information on the label.
Peanut Butter
The World Health Organisation recommends peanut butter for severely malnourished children. It is high in energy and fat and can deliver a concentrated amount of essential nutrition in emergency situations. Mix peanut butter and banana in a bowl to create a healthy, fatty and high-energy spread for sandwiches. You can also add peanut butter to cereals.
Lean poultry, such as turkey mixed with potato is a healthy and protein-rich meal for a toddler. It's important to introduce healthy "grown-up" foods at a young age, especially to an underweight child.

Missed it although the ammo shortage isn't too hard to figure out. Manufactures never anticipated the current volume of sales so they're simply working overtime to keep up. Some are reluctant to machine up for additional production due to the whole "supply & demand" thing'. Of course, this is just my own opinion.
Monsters are real and so are ghosts. They live inside of us, and sometimes they win.

I am often up late at night studying. I am a person who can read, watch tv and carry on a conversation with no problem and I find it helps to have something playing in the background that i can shift focus too every 15-20 minutes while reading boring material. I put CCAM on and am always amazed at the carziness on there. A tinfoil hat would be a step down for most of those folks.
Some guests like John Lott are great, but man, some of those people are just nuts. Great entertainment though. Often I find myself laughing out loud at some callers.
I was listening last night when Lott was on. He seems to once again be on the money as to the gun issues and the ammo shortage.
When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts & minds will follow. Semper Fi.

A little word about privilege… I had an interesting experience recently. I went to DC and NYC on a little mini Domme tour. I saw clients, friends, BDSM F/family and did some photo shoots.
I have been blessed over the past few years to not need to advertise or take new clients. I decided to show My face again on the East Coast to freshen connections with old clients, and to see some new ones. I thought it would be interesting to find some fresh faces to play with.
I saw some delightful submissives, and some Dom/me F/friends, who of course realize in O/our world a W/woman is to be treated as a Queen. That's something that I love about the BDSM/Leather world. W/women, whether Dominants or submissives, are expected to be treated with a high level of respect. (As are other genders, but that's not the point of this story.) Of course, that respect may be followed by a slap to the face, a tearful blow job and rough anal sex for the sweet subby girls…but none the less W/women are held in high regard.
And then there's those clients who are not really part of O/our world, and haven't done their homework… Now I know that the world of professional BDSM practitioners is in effect a service industry. I'm fully sensitive to the ambiguity of this strange craft. I'm not the type of Domina that requires My clients to act as slaves. That's just silly and pretentious and lame. I'm respectful of the fact that a client is paying for an erotically charged experience, and I should be mindful of preferences, proclivities, limits…and the occasional poorly drafted script. However, I'm not punching a clock. I did that for years in the real service industry…the restaurant business.
So, young man, before you come at Me with a sense of entitlement, just because you're laying down some cash, remember this: I don't work for you. you are offering tribute to a Goddess for the privilege of spending time with Me. Don't barter with Me, or act like your money holds some kind of power over Me. The only one who's desperate here is you…to get your fix of a bad boy spanking or be turned into a blushing pansy bitch or bound for hours in a rubber bondage bag….
And with that, I think I'll return to My throne, and to taking only a very few worthy clients and submissives. I'll leave the rest of you idiots to bumble around in dark, seedy hallways, labyrinths and corridors. I've had My fill of that and prefer My privileged elitist existence as a BDSM Goddess.
Saving My Sick Soul
Romans 2:1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
I've been silent for awhile, but am so excited to post a blog today…
This morning I was relaxing on My bed in My beautiful, light flooded hillside home. I was getting a gentle massage from My slave girl pippi, and making plans for the day. My phone made a jingling harp like sound, so I looked to see who was texting Me. It was a random stranger who employed bad spelling, worse grammar and a strange need to save My mortal soul. I thought I'd share it since it was so amusing to Me.

You are bizarre and assume to much. You know nothing about me. First of all, I'm not an escort and I don't have sex with clients. I don't know who this is but I don't want to hear from you. I know more about the Bible and the history of the church than anyone you know. And by the way, Jesus kept company with "sinners" and whores.

I didn't bother writing back after the last comment. There's not much you can say to someone who's bringing a message directly from the Holy Trinity. Well, it's been nice writing to you (My friends, family, fans and enemies…) but I need to get back to My wicked deeds and soul destroying darkness. I'll be updating the site very soon with some sickening new content! xxx Soma-of-the-Devil-Snakeoil…
Hudsy Hawn's Hedonists and Rubber Bordello
You remember I posted some photos not that long ago of my trip to Jamaica with Kink in the Carribbean. One of my favorite rubber encased people in Jamaica was the shiny siren Hudsy Hawn. Hudsy has a show on Talking Sex Radio that she asked me to come on. I will be on her show this Thursday at 8:00pm Western time. I'm sure you will get an insight into some of the deviant things we got into together while on shiny, sunny vacation.
I will also be discussing my new film Rubber Bordello. As you may have heard, my Premier Party for Rubber Bordello is the following day, February 10th. I will be showing never before seen clips and the trailer from the movie on Hudsy's show.
A little about the film…It's my first feature length film produced, written, directed and starred in by me. The film showcases some really talented fetish actors and an original soundtrack by Fat Mike. Fetish actors Nikki Nefarious, Sparky Sinclaire, Rubbernecro, Deviant Kade and Master Feenix took dramatic silent film overacting to a whole new level with each scene becoming consistently more perverse. There's some great musicians that made this film so special including Dustin Lanker from the Mad Caddies, a horn player for Tom Waits and Old Man Markley. This is the fun part…it's a sepia toned, silent film in the style of old Hollywood. It gets better…Hudsy Hawn sang the opening song written by Fat Mike for the film. Every one involved in this project was amazing to work with.
There's going to be a press release out tomorrow and the website will also go live tomorrow. More details will follow! I've released a few photos from the movie on my twitter account. I also talk about it in Inked Magazine and then again in a few other interviews that I'll be announcing over the next few weeks.
I'm really excited for all of my friends, fans and colleagues to see the movie! You'll be able to purchase it directly from the film's website in just a few days.
Please tune in to hear about my filthy exploits and my new movie with Hudsy Hawn's Hedonists this Thursday!
Cartoon Soma Snakeoil Art
This first piece is by Satine Phoenix. Satine is one of my favorite people. We've done lots of films, shoots and live performances together and remain friends now that she's left the industry. Satine's attention to detail is so amazing!
The next drawing was done by a comic artist who was putting together a story about foot tickle torture. He hired Lalo and I to pose for photos by Greg Welker to inspire the story. We played spies from opposing sides fighting over an envelope full of government secrets. I was an evil KGB femme fatale and she was a CIA queen of deception…To win this sensitive mission I tied up Lalo and tickle tortured her feet…I think in the end the American's win and she strangles me with a phone cord or something that leads into more tickling.
Photo Journal of November
I've had an extremely busy month being a pervert. I went to Kink in the Caribbean with part of my BDSM family.
One of my favorite evenings was spent with what became my Kink Family Domina Carmen of Seattle, Kip, Carina Crash and MasoChris, Mike, Queen Tahli and Pat, GreyDancer and Princess Kali.
Domina Carmen made Kip carry a boiled egg in his ass all day and then "birthed" it in front of us and made him eat it! It was one of the most creative D/s scenes I've witnessed.
Later GreyDancer tied Queen Tahli and Pat together and Domina Carmen and I played with them. We ended the evening in the outdoor dungeon with a fire play scene with Queen Tahli.
Much of my time in Jamaica was spent wearing tons and tons of rubber. This is a photo of Mike and I relaxing after a photo shoot with Hudsy Hawn.
This is what I wore to the pool party.
Kink in the Caribbean was really special for me this year in building relationships with friends. I got to spend some extra special times with Domina Carmen, Princess Kali and Mastress Simone. These three women are strong, intelligent and powerful. I'm really looking forward to seeing all they accomplish and you should look out for them too. I'm very proud to be associated with such forward thinking erotic leaders.
After Jamaica I came back to LA and a whirlwind of kinky play time. This Friday I played with my new special client who taught me how to use sugary sweets in medical play. We played with marshmallows soaked in tequila inserted anally and chased by a champagne enema…followed by whip cream as lube for sounds. We also used food coloring in a testicle saline infusion. I love our play time because it mixes extreme play with sweet delights.
Saturday evening I had an all night session with my long time submissive lieutenant. We spent the evening with Miss Antoinette and Miss Carina Crash. The mischief is too private for me to tell in detail but I'm sharing a photo of me infusing Miss Carina's breasts with saline. Miss Carina spent the rest of the night worshiping her own tits in between play time with lieutenant.
Sunday we had a pee party at the dungeon. This is this submissive's personal sleep sack in the photo with my bondage potty chair in the right corner. About 8 women attended the pee party this time and turned him into a soaking wet piss guzzler.
As can be expected after so much debauchery, I am completely exhausted today and plan to be very good, sweet and innocent…well, maybe not too good…
Courtney Crave and my Gyno Table
Michael Diaz of Surgeon Studios is someone I've been shooting with for years.
Occasionally I let him shoot girls at my dungeon in exchange for use of the dirty photos. One of those sets is with beautiful sex kitten Courtney Crave. I'm giving you yet another tease shot of photo sets to come as well as a peek into the medical area of my private dungeon.
NUDE by Chad Michael Ward
Check out this book called NUDE, I'm featured in by Chad Michael Ward.
Punishment Vs. Play
I've been thinking recently about the role of punishment in an erotic D/s relationship. Erotic discipline is such an integral part of the relationship between a Dominant and a submissive. Discipline or punishment reaffirms the power dynamic between a Domme and a sub and is vital for consensual behavior modification. It is so important for their to be a clear distinction between punishment and play. So much of what we do in play time BDSM is intrinsically charged in a way that is similar to punishment.
Punishment can only be involved in a D/s dynamic, because to accept punishment one must believe there is a difference in power levels. Play, on the other hand, can happen within a D/s dynamic, a fetish experience or an S/m Top and bottom experience, without power roles being a central theme.
In my BDSM Household it is very clear what the difference is between punishment and play. I start by explaining my displeasure. I tend to be cruel with my words during punishment. Sometimes I will dismiss my submissive from my presence until I feel my emotions are in check to offer fair punishment. Sometimes dismissal is the punishment. I have a hand movement that I use to dismiss someone and there is a body position that my submissives can adopt to beg for mercy.
The thing about punishment, that I find substantially important, is that a punishment should always lead to redemption. Without redemption punishment is a damaging cold chill in a D/s relationship and can lead to a sense of isolation for both partners.
My submissive, golden boy, and I spent many hours discussing the role of punishment in a D/s relationship. We came up with a formula that works for us and I employ as a standard method for my household.
5 Points from Punishment to Redemption:
Punishment can take many forms, but to me its essence is a process:
1) a complete admission, confession of fault
2) a promise to improve with clear steps to follow in the future
3) absolute, unqualified submission to authority
4) assumption of a status or activity that is clearly understood to be punitive,
something painful, humiliating posture, public shame or a host of other things
help makes this clear e.g. spanking, standing in the corner, caning, stress positions…
5 ) most important – affection and forgiveness when the punishment phase has ended
Following the ritual of punishment is a beautiful way to keep a D/s relationship vibrant and healthy.
Kink in the Caribbean-First Photo with Hudsy Hawn
I did a photo shoot with Hudsy Hawn at Kink in the Caribbean. Hudsy is an incredible sexy, powerful performer. She sings with more guts and versatility than almost any woman I've seen AND she does it wearing latex and slapping people with her crop! I just had to do a shoot with her since she's so rad. I'm going to release the whole photo set when I receive it. Until then, here's a sneak peek.
I did this shoot a couple years ago for Inescapable Bondage. Clearly it's not a girl/girl shoot like I usually share with you but I thought some of you may enjoy seeing something a little different. The male bottom in the shoot is Wolf Hudson. Wolf and I were kind of unsure of each other at the beginning of the day. By the end of the grueling bondage experience he was one of my favorite people to work with. You can see video footage of the play scene at InescapableBondage.com

Journal, Day Two
Back in grad school (the early eighties, not to put too fine a point on it), the advice to "write every day" meant, in my mind, to sit down at a desk and work on a poem, preferably a new one, every day. I had my own computer back then, since my job as a technical editor made them familiar and desirable objects, and I used it to compose. (It was one of those 520K "Power Macs" that looked like a breadbox on end, with a minuscule screen in black & white. It came with a program called "Speakeasy" that spoke aloud whatever you typed into it. I typed my dog's name, Wally: it came out rhyming with Sally.)
Truth is, I just am not good with dailiness. I've never been a diarist; I even find it difficult to remember, every day, to take my vitamins. I do a lot better thinking about writing poetry as a constant process, which includes note-making, reading, thinking, and writing all jumbled up into one. Part of this had to do with a change my work took about 12 years ago, when my ideas for poems seemed larger than what (I conceived of as) a "single poem" could accommodate. (My definition of "poem" changed as a result: I'd consider the entire book of F2F, for example, a poem.) I began looking at the tiny pocket diaries my father kept from 1919–1921, in an attempt to write about him; he had passed away in 1985. Part of my process in writing the poem sequence "The Green Tuxedo" included transcribing his tiny handwriting into a computer file so it could be searched, and researching locutions, events, and places mentioned in the work.
In the meantime, the rhythms of the diary's language (which was not quite like spoken language, or my father's speech) got into my mind. I began to collage parts of the diary into the sequence. I was aware that other poets were using collage as a technique, but this was my first need for it; this writing also made me much more aware of poets' incorporation of different levels of speech into a single poem. I hadn't yet read Zukofsky's "A," but "A-1" would have been a great example of this, as would C.D. Wright's remarkable Deepstep Come Shining. This awareness made me both much more eager to incorporate different levels of speech into my work and more bold about incorporating collaged words from a subject's own voice. (This goes back to the "eavesdropping" from yesterday's post. The collage allows the reader to eavesdrop.)
At about the same time, Stephanie Strickland and I began to collaborate on a Web-based hypertext presentation of her poem "The Ballad of Sand and Harry Soot." This was a long-distance project, with me in St. Paul, MN, and Stephanie in New York, conducted almost entirely over e-mail. (The results are at http://www.wordcircuits.com/gallery/sandsoot/.) I was the mechanic on the project: she provided the poem & images, and I did the HTML coding. The theory was to make the site as technologically "lowest common denominator" as possible so it wouldn't be impossible to access as operating systems, HTML, and browsers updated—lucky for me because my coding skills were nascent.
Stephanie had created a poem that didn't require the computer (Heather McHugh chose it in text form as winner of the Boston Review's second annual poetry contest (http://bostonreview.net/BR24.5/strickland.html)), but which immensely gained from its use. It also dealt significantly with issues of computer-human interaction—Sand is, after all, silicon. I can't describe what it is like to draw together all the many connections a poem makes intratextually, and add to them imagery with its own multiple connections, except by saying that the reading experience was larger than I was used to. I found myself wanting to create a project with such scope.
One of the advantages of Stephanie's poem is that the stanzas are quite short, which enabled me to make a lexia, or media page, small enough for very primitive browsers to load but with large enough type to allow easy reading. When I began to write my own hypertext piece, I used index cards: the first time since that 512K Mac that I'd intentionally begun writing seriously by hand. I wanted to keep my lexia short, with the idea that each segment would display and then segue, much like a film, and the cards worked as physical limitations (kind of like Ammons's adding-machine tape). Because I was dealing with internet messaging as a topic, I would replicate the look of internet messages for those segments. I began to dream big: because the character of Echo was important, perhaps I could incorporate sound as well! Maybe video instead of words! In short, while writing the poem, my intentions for it soon outstripped my capabilities to code it.
Still, some of my students recall my carrying about my little index-card-sized binder with the poem building inside it. Eventually, as collaborations with programmers fizzled (I didn't have money to pay a programmer, basically), I began to structure the poem as a book instead. Thinking of F2F as a book instead of hypertext brought changes to the work, though in some poems a triple-dot break remains as a vestige of those lexia plans, those index cards.
The poems I wrote in 2002¬–2003 felt burdened by my own growing depression and anger at the run-up to war, and I turned to favorite poets for solace. In Dickinson I found a poet also dealing with a devastating war, and in the first poem she is thought to have written in 1862, just a year into the conflict, are the lines
If it had no pencil
Would it try mine—
I took these as an invitation. I loved what Tom Phillips did with A Human Document, and even more what Ronald Johnson did with Paradise Lost—the latter, I think, more because I could discern connectedness between the created poem and its palimpsest. Erasure had seemed almost a parlor game to me in the past; it seemed too easy to have meaning. (Uncool to want meaning, I guess. No news to me that I'm uncool!) But what I discovered was a deep sense of collaboration in the process. I had to negotiate Dickinson's language, history, and her deep, idiosyncratic spiritual life, and found it immensely well suited to our own situation in what now seem to be the early years of a long, horrifying war. Now, instead of a pack of index cards or a laptop, I was working by writing in a book, circling, erasing, revising, creating something I titled "The ms of my kin." The voice is neither Dickinson's nor my own: it is a third thing I use to unloose my anger.
What I'm saying, I guess, is that my process is either fluid or inconsistent, depending upon your point of view. It is not a process I recommend to others or think superior to anyone else's; it is simply the only way I can work. Each project dictates its process. Although I am miserable in the between-phases, I now know that it's very likely because I'm working out a way of working. As a teacher, I never tell my students they have to write every day at the same time, to make a forced habit of it. Instead, I can open up a channel for discussing their writing processes, in which writing every day on a schedule is one way of creating.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Rome Mod Rocker - Right for me?
Haha, oh man. I was like yesss, account activated to post thread.
Anyways, sorry, noob question.
Been looking for a new snowboard, I randomly bought a 2006 Rossignol 155CM, back in 06, and looking to upgrade.
I'm 5'6, 165lbs, Size 9 boot, looking at a 153CM Mod Rocker 2012. Gonna be using my Ride LX's on it.
I read about every review there is on here, and on Google, and there's a lot of positive reviews, but some people are talking that it's a really advanced board, and it's not good to progress on, etc. I was wondering if that really is true, especially since a lot of people describe it as an all-mountain board which is exactly what I want.
That had me worried a bit, I'm about 40% groomed, 40% tree, 20% park, but definitely trying to get out groomers and start doing a lot more park. I'd say I'm an upper intermediate. Jumps are probably the most interesting for me, and from the reviews it sounds like this is awesome, boxes a bit, but def. hate rails since I got a concussion off of one.
A part of me wants to just say screw it, and not worry about the reviews, but I'm a bit obsessive with what I buy, especially since I'm spending a lot.

Injured Service Members To Attend Special Screening Of Dolphin Tale
In conjunction with the upcoming release of Alcon Entertainment's "Dolphin Tale," the makers of the film are hosting a special screening for the Semper Fi Fund (www.semperfifund.org) Thursday, September 22, 2011 at the AMC Loews Theatres,19th Street East 6, New York City, NY.
Approximately 200 supporters of the Semper Fi fund will be in attendance, to include more than 30 injured service members from the Semper Fi Fund's "Team Semper Fi" who will be in town for this weekend's "Tunnel to Towers" race in Brooklyn.
In this inspirational movie, based on a true story, an injured service member receives inspiration from Winter the dolphin, whose tail was amputated but has now been replaced with a prosthetic tale. The makers of the movie also realize the incredible inspiration our injured service members provide to us all in their recoveries, and they provided this screening to the Semper Fi Fund to help highlight our efforts and their stories.
Who: 200 supporters of the Semepr Fi Fund to include more than 30 injured service members from the Semper Fi Fund's "Team Semper Fi" and other special guests
What: Special screening of "Dolphin Tale" to benefit the Semper Fi Fund
When: September 22, 2011, 7:00 PM
Where: AMC Loews Theatres,19th Street East 6, 890 Broadway, New York City, NY
Web: http://www.semperfifund.org/
The makers of Dolphin Tale are also sponsoring a contest with the Semper Fi Fund to send one lucky U.S. military family (up to 5 people) on an all-expense paid trip to the Clearwater Aquarium, in Clearwater, FL for a "Day of Inspiration" with Winter the dolphin and several of our injured service members from the Semper Fi Fund.
The random drawing will be held on September 30, 2011, and the verified winner announced shortly thereafter. The drawing is open to qualified military families who have a child that is fighting to overcome a significant disability or debilitating disease. To enter the drawing and find out more about the contest's rules and regulations, please visit: (www.semperfifund.org/inspiration)
About Dolphin Tale - Alcon Entertainment's "Dolphin Tale" is inspired by the amazing true story of a brave dolphin called Winter and the compassionate people who banded together to save her life. Swimming free, a young dolphin is caught in a crab trap, severely damaging her tail. She is rescued and transported to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, where she is named Winter. But her fight for survival has just begun. Losing her tail may cost Winter her life. It will take the expertise of a dedicated marine biologist, the ingenuity of a brilliant prosthetics doctor, and the unwavering devotion of a young boy to bring about a groundbreaking miracle-a miracle that might not only save Winter but could also help scores of people around the world. "Dolphin Tale" is a heartwarming, fun adventure about the healing bonds of family, both human and animal. The real Winter, who plays herself in "Dolphin Tale," today serves as a symbol of courage and hope to millions of people-especially those facing their own physical challenges-who have been touched by her remarkable story of recovery and rehabilitation.

Northern Arizona (3-0-1 Big Sky) vs. UNLV (4-1-0 Mountain West)
Date: Sunday, Sept. 8
Time: 5:00 p.m. MST
Site: Flagstaff, Ariz. – Lumberjack Stadium
For UNLV
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - For the first time in school history, the Northern Arizona women's soccer team has started the season 3-0-0 defeating CSU Bakersfield last Friday night, 1-0. The Lumberjacks now have two wins in the state of California. Last Sunday, the Lumberjacks came back late in the second half down a goal and came back and tied the game off a Savannah Berry goal. Berry's first goal of the season gave NAU the 1-1 tie to remain undefeated.
The Lumberjacks and Rebels have met six times with the first match being in 1999. Northern Arizona's record against UNLV is 1-4-1. The last meeting was last season in Las Vegas, Nev. and UNLV won 2-0.
Scouting Northern Arizona
The awards come after Weaver allowed only one goal in 200 minutes of play this weekend in California against CSU Bakersfield and UC Riverside. Weaver and the rest of the defense were stellar Friday night, shutting out CSU Bakersfield who they had lost to last season in overtime, 3-2. Weaver recorded nine saves against UC Riverside, allowing one goal in 110 minutes of play. NAU was out shot 22-13 and still managed to get the tie, remaining undefeated.
Scouting UNLV
The Rebels have been off to a hot start scoring and relying on their offense. Senior Jenn Wolfe is leading the offensive charge, scoring four goals in just four matches. She also has an assist for a total of nine points. In the four matches played this year, the Rebels have scored 11 goals this season, while only allowing four goals on the season. After gathering a total of five points this past weekend, Wolfe was named this week's Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week. The native of Olathe, Kan., leads the Mountain West in goals and points. Dishing out a lot of those assists for Wolfe is Susie Bernal who leads the Rebels in assists this season with four. Besides Wolfe, UNLV has seven players who have scored this season.

E60 - Aux retrofit DIY - Saved 250 bucks
Hey Guys , First of all - Thanks to this forum & the users who have posted their valuable experience here.
As I posted earlier My CCC had died and I save a lot money by doing a DIY replacement. Now in order for my CCC to work the dealer had to Code it and when he did update the software I automatically got an option for AUX in my idrive menu. I asked the dealer to install the AUX part as well , Dealer quoted me $250 for the job including part and since they did not have the part in stock they rescheduled my appointment for the retrofit. I was a little skeptical on paying them $250 for the AUX, so I searched this forum and found a very useful PDF file (attached).
From there it was a piece of cake. I ordered the part from amazon. Received it next day. I already knew how to disassemble the front dash from my experience in replacing CCC.
Removed CCC , took out the big connector on the back of the CCC , removed the black interlock and added my Aux cable with the PIN numbers as specified in the PDF. Tested It & it worked like a charm.
Now i took the glove box apart - 4 screws from the bottom of the glove box and 2 plastic (screw holder kind of thing ) from inside the glove box. routed the cable from CCC to the OEM location of AUX drilled holes and was done. there is a plastic cover on the underside where the AUX is installed, I took that out to easily route the AUX part.
Sound Quality : I have heard a lot of people saying that the SQ is not as good with an aux cable and people have recommended removing the capacitors from the wire. I did not do that. Honestly the SQ is really good. I played same songs both on CD and AUX and did not notice any difference in SQ or volume.
Some people have complained about the buzzzing noise from AUX , I noticed that only when my phone or Ipod was connected to a charger. If i remove charger and just play the songs , the buzzing is not there at all.
Money I spent - $80 on the part
about 40 minutes on labor.
Good luck to anyone who is planning to do this. If you have any questions let me know I will try to help you out as much as i can .
PS: 4 corner Pins are numbered on the black connector. My Connector had 3 existing wires in it probably from the changer.

Robert Pattinson was an Underware Model
In 2003, vampire Robert Pattinson allowed himself to be photographed for a Chinese magazine in nothing but his underwear. And some sort of weird tie/ascot combo. And boy-band hair. His face looks younger, but that's obviously a Dracu-llusion, as we know that Robert Pattinson does not age and is made out of sparkles. Which, actually, sounds like exactly the kind of model who would do really well in the Asian market. But sadly, he gave it all up to star in Twilight.

Pueblo police investigate attempted kidnapping
PUEBLO, Colo. - Pueblo police are investigating an attempted kidnapping that happened Tuesday night.
A 27-year-old woman female told police she was running on 31st Street near Morton Elementary school when a white truck circled the block. She said it went around the block twice before it started driving next to her. The driver tried talking to her, but she did not respond and kept running.
Police say the truck then pulled over and the driver opened the door. The woman ran off into a nearby park and called for help.
Police are looking for a white, older model extended cab with dark, tinted windows. It had chrome bumpers and sat low to the ground.
The driver is described as a dark-skinned Hispanic male in his mid 30s with a bald head, thin, dark mustache and wearing a dark plaid shirt.
The passenger is described as Hispanic, in his 20s, with short hair and wearing a white shirt with dark lettering on the front.
Anyone with information is asked to call Pueblo police at 719-553-2502 or Crime Stoppers at 719-542-7867.

Green Transportation
Moving toward a transportation system that fuels healthy people and a healthy planet.
Want to Trade up in Gas Mileage and Get a $4,500 Credit?
The Car Allowance Rebate System, formerly known as the Cash-for-Clunkers bill, takes effect today, July 1.
Yesterday, President Barack Obama signed the bill into law that pays consumers up to $4,500 in credit for trading in their cars or trucks for more fuel-efficient vehicles. The $1 billion program is overseen by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Details of how the plan will be rolled out are still being discussed. The full release is expected by July 24, but cars purchased between July 1 and Nov. 1, 2009 (if the funds do not run out before that) will qualify.
Here are some requirements listed from the CARS program website:
The CARS rebate does not count on top of the trade-in value of your vehicle. When you trade your car in, you do not need to do any paperwork with the government because the dealer will apply the credit when you buy the new vehicle.
The bill is designed for people with older, inefficient cars who are looking for new, more fuel-efficient cars. But there have been criticisms that the purpose of the bill is more for stimulating car sales than greening America's fleet, since the gas mileage standard is just a 4 mpg increase.
Others, such as the Washington Post, are criticizing the bill for not providing enough money. The $1 billion of credits is only expected to increase car sales by 250,000 cars. Businessweek quoted Jeremy Anwyl, chief executive of Edmunds, saying that the program will not help the auto industry because auto sales would need to increase by 3 million vehicles more to get them out of the bad situation they are in now. But most automakers and auto dealers support the program.
What do you think about the new program? If you qualify, what kind of car would you get? If you don't qualify, what kind of car would you want to get? Share your thoughts by posting a comment below.

Bishop Charles Scott
She forgot what she came for. She had left behind her valued possession. She was running faster and faster and could not contain her emotions. She felt a dry thirst in her mouth but an eternal satisfaction in her soul. She had just met Him, and she had to tell others about Him. She had but one simple message, "Come see a man . . . is not this the Christ?" She was not in church, but she was having church.
She released the aroma of the pungent perfume until it filled the air. She broke the box and released the fragrance until every drop of the atmosphere was drenched in the odor. She did not care that she was being criticized for her extreme worship. She refused to stop with the precious ointment; she continued the lavish expression of praise by wiping His feet with her hair. She was not in church, but she was having church.
He felt no pain for the first time in years. He could see the scars from the cuts and bruises, but he knew he was healed. He did not want to leave Him. He wanted to stay with Him forever. He was a little afraid of the future, but he knew he was free from the past. He had a long trip ahead, but at least his mind was clear, his spirit was free and his soul had peace. He began to compose how to tell others what had happened. He had been bound for so long. He had hurt for so long. He had been alone for so long. He knew he could not wait until he reached his home; he had to tell someone, anyone and everyone what He had done for him. He was not in church, but he was having church.
He fell among the flopping fish. He could not believe what he had seen. He saw the empty net suddenly become full. He felt the cool water begin to fill the boat, but he knelt anyway. He had to get it out. He had to say it. He had to confess, "I am a sinful man." He was being reborn. He was finding a new life. He was accepting his destiny. He was not in church, but he was having church.
We have a hard time with it. We struggle to accept it. We try, but once we have been in church, it seems like church ought to be church. We get used to the natural and miss the supernatural. We get used to the method and forget the message. We get used to system and miss the Spirit. We know how to talk inside the church; we know how to act inside the church; we know how to fulfill Christian expectations in the church; but when will we start being the Church when we are not in the church?
We need to be the Church. We need to be absolute—there is only one true way to eternal life and His name is Jesus Christ. We need to be global—there is a world around us dying for the message we hear and take for granted. We need to be connected—there is one validation that we are children of God and that is that we display love one for another. We need to be relevant—there is a cry for hope in this generation: the hope we have when we declare Christ is in us, the hope of Glory. We need to be the Pentecostal Church of God: a Church that is the Church even when we are not in church.
Not long ago our family walked down one of the most notable intersections in America. As thousands of people passed by, two men and one woman stood on the corners preaching, witnessing and distributing tracts with a fervent passion proclaiming the gospel. Their efforts did not seem to make much difference to the hustle and bustle of the city. But they were there. They were not in the church, but they were having church. Maybe it's time for us to connect as the Church when we are not in the church. Maybe it's time for us to be absolute as the Church when we are not in the church. Maybe it's time for us to be global as the Church when we are not in the church. Maybe it's time to be relevant as the Church when we are not in the church. Maybe we can see this eye to eye, even if we are not in church.

De Bontin arrived at Monaco last April 2008 from Chicago and one of his main goals was to find new investors for the club.
"With its new investors, ASM FC has now the necessary means that could allow [the club] to regain its place among European and French soccer elite," Monaco said in a statement.
Monaco Sports Partenaires will replace Monaco Football Investissement as Monaco's majority owner, but a dispute between one of Monaco Sports Partenaires' major investors and de Bontin over his authority to run the club's affairs led to his decision to leave, sources told AFP.
De Bontin told Canal+ that he had considered his decision to step down for several months.
Monaco, the 2004 UEFA Champions League runner-up, had languished in the bottom half of Ligue 1. It is in a four-way tie for 12th place only three points above the relegation zone.
De Bontin, a college classmate and teammate of Prince Albert of Monaco at Amherst, met with a frosty reception from the French press, and Monaco fans criticized his moves, most notably the signing of American Freddy Adu on loan from Benfica. Adu has been a complete bust and has not even made the club's first 18 in recent weeks.

so does no one know?
Hello, I am using a usb stick to boot several different things, including slax and backtrack. However, i am very short on space. I beleive that i should be able to take the backtrack functionality(associated programs, and application menu setup) by simply copying the correct lzm's from backtracks base folder over to slax's module folder. However, i am having some difficulty discerning the correct lzm's to migrate. I know that pentest.lzm must be one, but i do not know the others...
so does no one know?
if u import only pentest you will have programs but not the shorcuts....in kmenu and many prog wich are in /usr
Watch your back, your packetz will belong to me soon... xD
BackTrack : Giving Machine Guns to Monkeys since 2006

Does mathematics education in Australia devalue Indigenous culture? Indigenous perspectives and non-Indigenous reflections
Matthews, Chris, Watego, Leesa A., Cooper, Thomas J., & Baturo, Annette R. (2005) Does mathematics education in Australia devalue Indigenous culture? Indigenous perspectives and non-Indigenous reflections. In Clarkson, Philip, Downton, Ann, Gronn, Donna, Horne, Marj, McDonough, Andrea, Pierce, Robyn, et al. (Eds.) 28th conference of the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2005, Melbourne, Australia.
|PDF (64kB)
Chris and Leesa are two Indigenous people who have come to mathematics education through their involvement in the struggle for Indigenous rights; Chris from being an Indigenous researcher with a PhD in Applied Mathematics and Leesa from a degree in Commerce and experience publishing material on Indigenous culture. Tom and Annette are two non-Indigenous people who have come to Indigenous culture through working in schools in Indigenous communities; both are mathematics educators and researchers. This paper attempts to describe the profound effect of Chris and Leesa's perspectives that mathematics education devalues Indigenous culture (see Matthews, 2003) on Tom and Annette's Indigenous mathematics-education projects at QUT. It indicates the potential of partnerships to empower Indigenous research. Note: The paper is written in heteroglossic form: Chris and Leesa's Indigenous perspectives are written in normal font; Tom and Annette's reactions and reflections are written in italics.

No Guarantee Mets Would Have Gotten Nelson Cruz For Bargain Price
By John Delcos
Photo Credit: Getty Images
It is an oversimplification to suggest the New York Mets could have signed Nelson Cruz for the same $8 million the Orioles did, if not a little more. Especially when juxtaposed against the Chris Young signing for $7.25 million.
I was against the Young signing, but that had nothing to do with Cruz, whom I would have balked against because of his connection to PEDs and defensive liabilities.
The Mets signed Young prior to the Winter Meetings when the market was fresh. Cruz was signed after spring training had begun.
Don't forget at the time the Mets were apprehensive about giving up a compensatory draft pick. They didn't have to surrender a pick for Young.
The market has dwindled dramatically since they signed Young. GM Sandy Alderson, who initially suggested he might let things play out in the market, had no way of knowing Cruz would sign for what he did, especially when the early reports had him asking for $75 million over five years.
Signing a power-hitting outfielder was a primary need and Alderson rolled the dice with Young. His odds were more in his favor later with Curtis Granderson.
But, for Cruz, who would have guessed this?
Maybe had the Mets re-visited Cruz with a low-ball offer, he could have signed with them, but the feeling is it wouldn't have been a good fit because of the PED issue.
And, had they inked both Young and Cruz to one-year deals, the odds are good they would have needed to shop again for outfielders next winter.
As for Cruz, this is the best thing that could happen to him because it affords him an opportunity to put up monster numbers in bandbox Camden Yards and try free agency against next year.

Moth mousse whipped with hazelnut milk. Cricket broth with a side of grasshopper garum sauce. Licorice-glazed ant stick. Bee bread. These dishes are part of a menu put together by the Nordic Food Lab, a kitchen/laboratory/think tank in Copenhagen. The idea behind its "Pestival" menu is to "explore the 1,400 untapped wholesome crawling creatures that are edible to man."
That goal is in line with a recommendation contained in a recent United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization report: The food industry should help in "raising the status of insects" by including them in new recipes and adding them to restaurant menus.
Pound-for-pound, insects have as much as 10 times the protein as beef. Such comparisons, coupled with growing numbers of hungry and malnourished people, have led in recent years to increasing calls for more entomophagy, also known as bug eating. The U.N. report, titled "Edible Insects: Future Prospects for Food and Feed Security," argues that increasing our insect intake is good for both humans and the environment.
The biggest obstacle to widespread acceptance of entomophagy is a phenomenon the report identifies as the "disgust factor." I know this factor well, and I suspect you do too. But before you get too bugged-out by the prospect of entomophagy, consider this: You probably already consume a lot of bugs, even if you fancy yourself a vegetarian. It's nearly impossible to avoid the stray bits of insect protein that are commonly found in salad, or to spit out every mosquito that flies in your mouth as you ride your bike down a hill. Current FDA regulations allow an average of 60 insect fragments per hundred grams of chocolate—and even more for peanut butter.
But given the sugar, preservatives and other unsavory elements of the average peanut butter cup, bug parts might be its healthiest component. Insects not only offer more protein than mammals, fish or fowl, but in many cases provide higher levels of unsaturated fat, minerals like zinc and calcium and other nutrients.
In addition to the nourishing aspects of entomophagy, according to the report, raising and gathering insects can provide opportunities for economic improvement as well. "Insect harvesting/rearing is a low-tech, low-capital investment option that offers entry even to the poorest sections of society, such as women and the landless."
Beyond human well-being, there are environmental advantages to entomophagy as well. Insects emit almost no methane, a potent greenhouse gas that's produced excessively by cattle. Insect ranching does not require the clearing of land, as is necessary to create space to raise livestock and feed. Insects are incredibly efficient at converting feed into protein—crickets need 12 times less feed than cattle, four times less than sheep and half as much as pigs and broiler chickens to produce the same amount of protein, according to the report. And farmed insects can be fed things that would otherwise be considered waste products, like grain stalks after the seeds have been harvested.
While convincing the average soccer mom to sprinkle a handful of flies into the soup pot might seem like a lot to ask, the report suggests a hybrid tactic that might have legs: using insects as animal feed, primarily for chicken and fish. This seems like a more palatable way to put insects on the menu than trying to get people to eat insects directly, and would free up land and fertilizer for agricultural pursuits that feed people, not animals.
Dutch scientists, meanwhile, are exploring another way around the disgust factor. They're culturing high-protein ovary cells from worms and larva that they hope to slip into burgers, breads and other processed foods.
After all, if modern consumers have demonstrated anything, it's their willingness to eat foods that are processed into oblivion and sold in pretty packages. Mystery meat products like hot dogs are infamous for their inclusion of unmentionable body parts, so what's a little bug powder among the ground-up noses, feet and rectums we so willingly toss on the grill? Nobody seems bothered by so-called pink slime in hamburger meat, so worm ovary powder could probably fly under the radar as well.
In some countries, insects are already regularly featured on menus, such as maguey worms in Mexico and the aquatic larvae known as zazamushi in Japan, which are popular sautéed with soy sauce and sugar.
But these are exceptions, not the rule, and it's hard to imagine the U.N.'s recommendation to add insects to restaurant menus gaining traction among bug-averse Americans, at least without some sort of catalyst. But one night in Bangkok a few years back, I became acquainted with a time-honored strategy that might help.
On a street crowded with young revelers, a vendor's cart contained several stainless steel bins filled with deep-fried insects, and I ordered a serving.
They're deep-fried, I repeated to myself. Thus, it would run contrary to the laws of physics for these bugs not to be good. And indeed they were good, tasting like potato chips, or crispy fried chicken skin, or any other type of fried crispy thing. And as with most other crispy-fried salty things, the fried bugs were a good pairing with beer.
Perhaps the U.N. should focus its insect-promoting efforts in bars and pubs.
