All words by Jane Oriel, Sam Lewis and Daniel Ross.
There's something beautiful about the Green Man Festival, stowed away as it is on a Welsh hillside, children and soap bubbles flitting everywhere as sheep wander the fields behind the main stage. It also has the best festival food, bar none.
Friday gets off to a pleasantly pedestrian start with acoustic folk lovelies Gwildor, which is nice and all, but nothing compared to the pop might and lush power of Fanfarlo. David Bowie's dead right naming them as one of his favourite new bands. The likes of 'Fire Escape' and '…Outsiders' separate them out as being something rather special, and their Arcade Fire gets beaten by Brian Wilson act is going down rather well, thanks.
A little later, sounds of traditional folk melodies with percussive clog dancing drifts from the main stage as DiS rests on the banking, watching clouds and flying ducks as we let the Green Man vibe reset our stress meters. Rachel Unthank and the Winterset are the source, then followed by Euros Childs, who puts the 'funny' back into folk (it needed doing). His voice - and the appearance of his band - is still that of a 12-year-old, and they are easily entertaining, crashing through about a thousand brilliant songs in five minutes. The highlight is the drop-your-cloudy-cider-and-half-eaten-paella beauty of 'Blaidd Tu Fas Y Drwys', which must impossible to improve upon, surely. It doesn't stop Dead Meadow trying it on the other stage, but it's not enough – their blind faith in the 1970s is endearing, but ultimately a little sticky. Nice dynamic control, though. A more ponderous experience is King Creosote. Kenny Anderson's mossy voice sums up much of Scotland's densely woven musical heritage but nicely coiled around current concerns.
Bill Callahan takes to the main stage, and his voice has a calming, prophetic quality about it; deep and voluminous, profound and mature. His set draws heavily from 2005's A River Ain't Too Much To Love, and when he delves elsewhere it's towards tracks equally contemplative, such as the sweetly poignant 'River Guard' from Knock Knock. Callahan's lover Joanna Newsom follows, and there's a lot to take in. Bestride her harp, she's eye catching in hot-pants and robed by tumbling blonde hair. (Is it just me, or does she look like Jodie Marsh here? – Ed) Her speaking voice has a bell-like chime to it, which twinned with her otherness, has DiS entranced from the start. Her voice cries and leaps but without affectation and her lyrical stories drop either from the lips of a seven-year-old child or a 70-year-old woman. Joanna Newsom is a musical treasure, and you heard it here... last.
Saturday brings a host of superb acts, starting at a tiny open air tent called the Green Man Café stage. Christopher Rees is in high spirits and he and his band rip through some rousing bourbon ballads from his new album Cautionary Tales. Both Emmy the Great and Diane Cluck tend to be loosely grouped together in the vague 'anti-folk' category, but in truth Emmy's songs are too well structured and Diane's too freeform for that profile to stick to either. Emmy lifts a sodden crowd with inoffensive, bittersweet love songs and, later, Diane enraptures the audience with a performance that's controlled, emotional and genuinely moving throughout – a real highlight.
Meanwhile, Ben Chasny's Six Organs Of Admittance, are tearing it up on the Folkey Dokey, now fast becoming dubbed the Fucky Ducky stage due to the expanding quagmire surrounding it. They mix beautifully low-key material from School Of The Flower with newer, heavier stuff that's almost gothic psych-rock. It's occasionally oblique but never less than fascinating. North Sea Radio Orchestra are of a different complexion. With bassoon counted amongst their ten-strong line up, they set the words of Yeats and Tennyson to modern pastoral chamber music and are utterly delightful. Clinic, however, are tight and frightening on the main stage, decked out in brown boiler suits and top hats. Smart. Following them is the rather sweet and slightly unhinged Broken Family Band, who manage to elicit sympathy and menace in equal measure, via their sing-a longs that you probably shouldn't sing along to.
Back to the meteorological safety of the very well-covered Folkey Dokey tent, and James Yorkston. Simply put, his songs are still some of the most beautiful written in Scotland, and he even treats us to a very scary and very noisy acid-flavoured wig-out at the set's summit. And speaking of noisy, a small technical hitch at the very climax of Fridge's set is the only thing stopping it from being completely satisfying.
It would appear that a lot of people have attended this festival for one reason: Battles. Despite the hype, the four-piece prove to be very good. The percussion is particularly outstanding but every member is a faultless technician in their own way, be it twiddling knobs or impersonating a vocoder on the buoyant 'Atlas'. Actually, it's pretty fucking special. We go to bed impressed, wet, muddy, impressed, tired, hung over and impressed.
Arctic Circle are the opening act for Sunday's Folkey Dokey stage and are the perfect perk for that inevitable Sunday morning grogginess. Like a more lo-fi Belle and Sebastian, or a slightly less up-tempo Bearsuit, they have an infectious charm. Directing Hand are an altogether different proposition. Alex Neilson's freeform drumming mixed with Vinnie Blackwall's squealed vocals make a challenging concoction of wild, daring music. You wonder where it's going, or even what the idea is; but perhaps that's missing the point. At the same time in the Literature Tent, Richmond Fontaine's front man Willy Vlautin reads from his road movie novel, Motel Life. It's peopled by the kinds of world-beaten but redemptive characters in bad situations that are often found in his songs. With a lump in our throats, DiS decides to buy this book.
On the Café Stage, David Thomas Broughton successfully walks the line between the unhinged and the brilliant, looping his way through an engrossing 25-minute set which typically balances the creative, funny and confrontational. Sucking a cut finger throughout, his voice (like a more ironical, and northern, Antony Hegarty) wavers and climbs, carrying tales of love and Gregg's pasties. Then, in the most diverse shift of the weekend, it's back to the main and Malcolm Middleton. Cheer up eh, fella? It's not all bad, is it? Oh, apparently it is, and all we've got to look forward to is Stella and fags on a Wednesday night until we die.
Fortunately, a much brighter Gruff Rhys is next, who enjoys himself massively by looping a toy keyboard, dressing like an airline pilot, killing a hijacker, calling himself _"SKYLOR!" _and generally being ace. It's a wonder he hasn't done anything wrong in his career yet. Time for something a bit more straightforward and Herman Dune are the providers. David-Ivar gives a live display showcasing what an awesome guitarist he is, something strangely underplayed on record. Bouncy, effortless and wonderfully exuberant, Herman Dune are everything the strangely disconnected Devendra Banhart isn't, leading us nicely towards the festival closer, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks. What better way to finish the whole weekend than Malkmus guiding us through his indigenous and organic song writing in this most indigenous and organic of areas. A pretty and perfectly noisy way to finish a rather rewarding festival.

Standard non-shared quota
From Linux-VServer
Want to enable quotas from within a vserver, nothing special, just plain old and good quota support? Then this might help you! First things first, you will need a vserver enabled kernel that you have made working and you need to add vroot support to it (In menuconfig it is in Device Drivers → Block Devices → Virtual Root device support).
After booting on the vroot enabled vserver kernel, you should have a directory /dev/vroot/ with 8 vroot devices (0-7) you can use to set up your quota, if you don't, then you may make them by mknod /dev/vroot/n b 4 n (where n can be from 0 to 7). If your Linux distribution uses udev, these will be at /dev/vroot[0-7] instead.
Initial Setup
Use vrsetup to tell the kernel what block device you want to handle quota for:
vrsetup /dev/vroot/0 [partition]
Where [partition] is your /vservers partition. For example, this could be something like /dev/hda5 if you're just using standard partitioning, or something like /dev/lvm/vserver0 if you're using LVM.
Setting Up Vservers For Quota
Setting up the vserver for quota is straight forward: (you need util-vserver 30.208 or newer) 1. Create a default mtab for the guest. To do this, add:
/dev/hdv1 / ufs rw,usrquota,grpquota 0 0
to /etc/vservers/<name>/apps/init/mtab
2. Add the quota capability to the guest vserver. Add:
to /etc/vservers/<name>/ccapabilities
3. Copy the vroot device which we setup earlier to the vserver:
cp -af /dev/vroot/0 /vservers/<name>/dev/hdv1
Finishing the setup
1. Start your guest.
2. Inside the guest, run:
quotacheck -maugv
3. Still inside the guest, turn quotas on.

We hear that video site Veoh is trying to raise $40 million, at a proposed valuation of $150 million; we're told the company has hired Bear Stearns to put the round together. Veoh declined to comment.
If this pans out, we'd love to know where that money is going. The company has already raised about $40 million so far -- $26 million of that in a C round last spring led by Goldman Sachs.
While Google's YouTube continues to grow, Veoh's traffic (and most other video sites') looks flat . It's also miniscule compared to YouTube. In December the site pulled in 2.1 million uniques and served up 58 million streams (per Nielsen); YouTube had 67 million uniques and 2.6 billion streams. On the plus side, Veoh does have deals with Viacom, which is still suing YouTube.
Former Disney chief Michael Eisner is an investor and serves on its board; former Viacom execs Tom Freston and Jonathan Dolgen are also invested, along with Time Warner (TWX) Spark Capital and Shelter Capital Partners.
Update: Bijan Sabet, whose Spark Capital is a Veoh investor, tells us that Nielsen underestimates Veoh, and ciites these numbers from its server logs: "Veoh's audience grew rapidly to 21million unique monthly viewers from 2.5M in the beginning of the year. That is a world-wide number but a big big chunk of that is from the US market...users are watching >30million hours of content per month on the Veoh network."

5 Band Reunions We'd Love To See — But Never Will
Some band breakups are more acrimonious than others. While some splits are rife with bitterness and lawsuits, others are just cases of musicians going their separate ways, amicably.
We always wonder what the chances of our favorite groups getting back together are; The Eagles famously said they'd reconvene when hell freezes over; then they reunited. With that in mind, here's a list of 5 bands we'd love to see get back together – and not just for a one-off show, but a full-blown tour.
- 1
Led Zeppelin
Since drummer John Bonham's death in 1980, surviving members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones have played what are widely regarded as disappointing sets at Live Aid in 1985 and the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary Concert in 1988.
Then in 2007, Plant, Page, Jones and Bonham's son Jason played a critically-acclaimed concert at London's O2 Arena. Rumors of a tour flared, and possible replacements for a reticent Plant were bandied about. In February of this year, Plant seemed to open the door for the possibility of a tour, telling '60 Minutes Australia,' "I'm not the bad guy," adding, "I've got nothing to do in 2014."
- 2
Pink Floyd
When Roger Waters left Pink Floyd in the mid-80s, he sued his ex-mates, attempting to stop them from using the Pink Floyd name. Waters' attempt failed, and the band continued without him, embarking on massive tours behind 1987's 'A Momentary Lapse Of Reason,' and 1994's 'The Division Bell' albums.
In 2005, Waters joined David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Nick Mason at the Live 8 festival in London to perform as Pink Floyd for the first time in nearly 25 years. Sadly, any subsequent Pink Floyd activity will not feature keyboardist Wright, who died in 2008.
- 3
Guns N' Roses
This one may be the least likely of all, but a fan can dream. It's hard to believe that it's been 22 years since the 'Use Your Illusion I' and 'II' albums, which was the last time anything even loosely resembling a GNR classic lineup put out an album of original material. Mercurial frontman Axl Rose then set to work on 'Chinese Democracy,' an album he started working on in 1998 and did not release until 2008. Besides keyboardist Dizzy Reed, who began playing with GNR in 1990, the album and subsequent tours have not featured any key members from the band's heyday; that is: no Slash, Duff McKagan, Steven Adler or Matt Sorum.
Considering Rose didn't even show up for GNR's 2012 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and reportedly went as far as banning any fans wearing Slash T-shirts from entering GNR shows in the UK, we don't see this one happening.
- 4
Smashing Pumpkins
Like Guns N' Roses, Smashing Pumpkins is essentially a solo project these days, with chief Pumpkin Billy Corgan leading a supporting cast since the original lineup played a farewell show back in 2000.
Drummer Jimmy Chamberlin has worked with Corgan, both in Zwan and the Pumpkins, since the initial breakup. Iha, however, reportedly hasn't spoken with Corgan in years, and bassist D'Arcy Wretzky seems to have issues of her own, including health problems she spoke to a radio DJ about, a bizarre 2011 incident in which she was jailed for six days for "failing to control her horses," and a more boilerplate drunken-driving arrest that same year.
- 5
One of the most notorious and controversial hip-hop acts of all time, N.W.A. launched the careers of Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, with iconic albums like 'Straight Outta Compton.' The group dissolved after 1991's 'Niggaz4Life.'
If N.W.A. does get back together, it will be without Easy-E, who died of AIDS in 1995.

Modern Family's Valentine's Day episode will see the return of Phil and Claire's sexy alter egos, Clive Bixby and his mistress, Juliana. Once again, they start out their night at a hotel, "but things go awry and there is a dramatic turn of events," teases Julie Bowen (Claire).
Gloria (Sofia Vergara) gets the OK from her doctor to resume sex after giving birth, which sends her hormones into overdrive, and Mitch and Cam (Eric Stonestreet and Jesse Tyler Ferguson) experience their version of The Hangover.
"We get really wasted the night before and wake up without fully remembering what happened," says Ferguson. "As we go through our house, we get clues and discover our cat has been dyed pink." Plus, Cam and Mitch debut their own versions of Clive and Juliana.

Yang beats Conners in US Amateur final
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. (AP) — Not long ago, Gunn Yang's game was such a mess that his college coach took away his scholarship.
Might want to reconsider that decision.
The 20-year-old South Korean never trailed while completing an improbable run to the U.S. Amateur title Sunday, beating Canada's Corey Conners 2 and 1 at Atlanta Athletic Club.
"I had not won a tournament in a long time, maybe like five or six years," Yang said.
At No. 776, he became the lowest-ranked player in the world amateur standings to capture the country's biggest title for non-professional golfers. Along the way, he beat five players inside the top 100, including the 44th-ranked Conners.
Yang, who lived in Australia for five years and now plays at San Diego State, pushed his lead to 2 up with four to play by rolling in an 18-foot birdie putt at No. 14. He closed out the match with a tap-in par at No. 17, the 35th hole of the grueling day.
The afternoon round was halted by a rain delay of 1 hour, 37 minutes.
"I had never heard of him before," Conners said. "He obviously had a great week."
Indeed, Yang was one of the most unlikely champions in the history of the 119-year-old event. A redshirt sophomore, he has played in just four college events, his career sidetracked by a herniated disk that required laser surgery. Just three weeks ago, he withdrew from the California State Open after playing the first nine holes at 6 over.
Now, at the home club of Bobby Jones, the greatest amateur of them all, Yang hoisted the Havemeyer Trophy.
Does he think he'll get that scholarship back, too?
"Better," Yang said, breaking into a big smile, "or else I'm going to transfer."
Conners had a chance to push the match to the limit with a 15-foot birdie attempt at No. 17. It slid by the right side of the cup.
Yang, whose 18-footer to win the match caught the right lip and spun out, knocked in what was nothing more than a gimme par to wrap up the title. He pumped his fist, hugged his caddie and let out a scream.
"He didn't really have any weaknesses out there," Conners said. "He didn't give me any openings to climb through."
The loss came one week after another Canadian, 16-year-old Brooke Mackenzie Henderson, was beaten in the final of the U.S. Women's Amateur.
This was the second straight U.S. Amateur final featuring two international players. The 22-year-old Conners, who played at Kent State, reached the semifinals last year and again came up short of becoming the first Canadian winner since 1971.
Instead, it was Yang joining Byeong-Hun An from 2009 as the only winners from South Korea.
Yang jumped ahead right away when Conners bogeyed the first hole. But the margin was never more than 2 up, the match tight all the way.
Heading into the midday break, it was Conners with the momentum. He birdied the par-5 18th even after his drive wound up some 75 yards behind Gunn's and in a fairway bunker. Conners laid up short of the water and put his third shot about 4 feet away. Gunn reached the green in two but three-putted from 60 feet for par, reducing his lead to 1 up.
Conners tied the match when they returned to the first hole for the afternoon round. Yang drove into the trees, had to punch out, and hit a poor flop shot into a bunker to take bogey.
Yang pulled ahead again at the sixth, where the tee box was pushed way up to create a 298-yard par 4. Both players went with driver, Yang sending his ball over the green while Conners came up short in a front bunker. Yang chipped up and made par; Conners failed to get up and down.
At the par-3 seventh, the Canadian found himself in the sand again. The result was the same — another bogey that gave Yang a 2-up advantage.
Conners cut into the lead with a 10-foot birdie at the 10th as ominous clouds rolled over the course, thunder rumbling in the distance. After both players teed off at the 11th, a downpour halted the match and sent fans scurrying for cover.
When play resumed, Yang missed a couple of chances to stretch his lead. He finally converted at No. 14, and protected his advantage with a brilliant up-and-down over a pond at the par-3 15th.
Not bad for a guy who didn't even bring enough clothes to make it through the week without washing.
"I took three shorts and four shirts," Yang said. "That was it."

I'm sure most of you have seen the Labor Relations Institute's stuff, particularly their aggressively disseminated "Unions: 7 lies you must know" series (which is a pretty good read, actually).
Well, it's just come to my attention that they keep what they call a "Union Scoreboard" @ http://lrionline.com/current-scoreboard , a running tally of elections, strikes, decerts, etc. which is pretty good... better than anything I've seen on a pro-labor site!

OCEAN CITY – The U.S. District Court judge presiding over the $30 million wrongful death lawsuit filed earlier this year by the family of two Pennsylvania tourists who perished from carbon monoxide poisoning in a Boardwalk motel room in June 2006 admonished attorneys on both sides yesterday in letter expressing her disappointment in the slow progress of the case, which forced her to cancel a mediation session scheduled for Monday.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan K. Gauvey sent a memorandum to the attorneys for the plaintiffs and the vast number of lawyers representing the multiple defendants in the case essentially taking them to task for the slow progress in the case.
"I am very disappointed with the lack of progress in this case," the letter reads.
Gauvey referenced a letter dated Aug. 12 urging the attorneys to be ready for mediation in an effort to begin resolving the case. She also referenced a September conference call urging the same.
The suit names as defendants the Bay Shore Development Corp., the owner of the Days Inn Hotel on 22nd Street in Ocean City where the tragedy occurred; Heat Transfer Products, Inc., the manufacturer of the faulty water deemed as the source of the CO leak; R.E. Michel Co. Inc., the Glen Burnie-based company that distributed the water heater; and All About Plumbing, the local company that purchased and installed the water heater at the Boardwalk hotel.
The 24-count federal suit is seeking a combined $30 million from the defendants, citing negligence, breach of warranty and strict liability in the deaths of Patrick J. Boughter and his daughter, Kelly M. Boughter, both of Lebanon, Pa., who died of exposure to carbon monoxide poisoning while staying at the Days Inn Hotel in Ocean City on June 27, 2006. The suit is also seeking personal injury damages for the surviving members of the family, Yvonne and Morgan Boughter, who also suffered from exposure to CO.
Each of the defendants named have filed motions for dismissal and almost every defendant has filed cross-claims against the various co-defendants involved in the case. Now, nearly a year after the suit was filed, Gauvey is clearly fed up with the delays.
"Various defense letters suggest that the mediation on December 15 would be futile and additional discovery is necessary," the letter reads. "I am canceling the mediation on December 15 and substituting a telephone conference call. All counsel should be prepared to advise me of the targeted discovery they need to have a meaningful second mediation. Despite the informal nature of this letter, it will constitute an order of the court and will be docketed accordingly."

A running discussion on the Cincinnati Reds and everything else in the baseball universe.

2010 Draft: Drew Hayes, rhp
I was able to watch Hayes today working against Florida State in the Super Regionals.
He featured a four seam fastball that sat in the 90-94 range without much movement. He also threw a changeup that sat in the low 80s. He also used a power slider with downward bite that clocked in the mid-80s and what looked like a curveball that was in the 74-75 mph range. Overall, the stuff was far from overwhelming, but was solid-average and the fastball velocity wasn't bad.
Hayes' fastball command was inconsistent, but he seemed better at spotting it to the thirdbase side corner of the plate than to the firstbase side of the plate. That seemed to be the case against both left and righthanded hitters. On the plus side, he effectively mixed his pitches and seemed comfortable throwing any pitch in any situation.
In the Sunday elimination game against FSU, he worked 4.1 innings, giving up 4 hits and 0 runs with a 3/4 K/BB ratio. The first time through the order he started the hitters off with the fastball and worked the offspeed pitches off the fastball. The second time through the order he started hitters off with the offspeed pitches and turned to the fastball as an out pitch. So, he did demonstrate polish in his approach.
On the season, Hayes posted a 4.25 ERA with a .226 batting average against in 48.2 innings. He tallied a 46/22 K/BB ratio and a 6-0 record with 5 starts and 23 appearances. Right now, he gets himself into too many jams, even if he does have some success wriggling out of them. However, more advanced competition is much less forgiving, so that approach won't work as he advances in the professional game.
As for his mechanics, they are fairly clean with the only red flag being a higher than desirable back elbow in relation to his shoulder. That could raise his risk of injury a bit, but it's not extreme and would be even less of a potential problem if he works in relief.
Overall, Hayes seems like a solid pick in round 11. He doesn't offer plus stuff or plus command or an impressive track record, but seems fairly solid across the board. However, there doesn't seem to be much projection left in his game, which is problematic in that his current level of performance didn't even allow him to dominate against collegiate competition, so he'll need to find improvement somewhere to succeed against more advanced competition. Whether that comes in the form of increased velocity or increased command or both, he'll need to take his baseline level of performance up a notch. Still, he's not a bad value in round 11.
8 comments:
eh, just a filler. not bad for the 11th roundReplyDelete
Yeah, probably so. That's why I wrote about him needing to find some kind of improvement in some aspect of his game. That said, sometimes that happens. Tim Hudson improved his velocity after the A's drafted him out of University of Auburn.
So, it's certainly not out of the question, especially in light of his solid skill set. But, his lack of a defined role and inability to dominate collegiate competition aren't great indicators of success.
Still, I do think he's pretty solid in round 11.
Thanks for the comment!

its fine, doesn't bother meReplyDelete
- Mr. KellyMarch 1, 2011 at 9:22 PM
I attend the Junior College that Hayes attended before he transferred to Vandy. As a Reds fan and a Cincinatti resident I do think that he would be a good fit for the farm clubs but not yet ready for the bigs. Level head but very inconsistent. Relies a lot on his fastball to get him out of tricky situations. 3 years in the minors will do him some good. Johnny Cueto FOREVER! Eric Wedge NEVER!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Mr. Kelly,ReplyDelete
Thanks for the comment. I'm hoping he works out, but he's going to have improve his baseline level of performance to find success in the professional ranks.
I think with some work he will make it big. I met drew and he is a nice guy with determination. Im just a kid but i know a lot drew is like a hero for me he didnt start out big and im not eithier but i have a dream just like his. Best wishes drew from Paul hope you make it big. Ps hes a great pitcher and i know he will make it big.ReplyDelete

The Rachael Ray Hot Dog Bracket: Our Search for the Best Hot Dog in the U.S.
Every year in March basketball madness sweeps the U.S. as the NCAA championship tournament unfolds.* And once again this year, we at SE helped put together Every Day with Rachael Ray's annual food bracket. Last year it was pizza. This year, the magazine asked us to focus on hot dogs.
After more than 3,000 miles of travel and dozens of stands and wieners later, Ed, Hawk, and I narrowed it down to 64 contenders. Then, after much discussion, a few tense moments, and a little indigestion, we arrived at a winner. We can't reveal the top dog yet, but for now, here's the bracket.
We'll be rolling out subsequent rounds over the next few days. Update: Here are the 16 contenders in each region ...
East Coast »
Midwest »

* Yeah, I know it's a little early to start thinking about the Big Dance, but our friends at Every Day with Rachael Ray just released the initial hot dog bracket seeding.

More About Aubrey TX
The Aubrey area was previously home to the Caddo, Comanche, and other indigenous peoples. The first immigrants from the United States and Europe arrived in the early 1840s. The town was established by the Railroad and named in 1872 for Ebenezer Aubrey, a state politician and railroad promoter. The railroad allowed sale of crops across the country before they rotted, causing a shift from the previous cattle-based agriculture. On February 22, 1878, a gang led by Sam Bass committed in Aubrey what is said to be Texas's first train robbery.
Today, Aubrey is home to locations such as the Cosmic Jump Indoor Trampoline Park.

The Third Man-1949
Here I shall give three scenes which stay on mind.
The American pulp writer Holly Martins (Joseph Cotten) has come to bombed-out, post-war Vienna on the invitation of his friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles) but is told of his death under most mysterious circumstances. One night, Martins becomes aware of a figure in a doorway on the opposite side of the apartment of Lime's girlfriend Anna Schmidt (Alida Valli). He spots her cat meow loudly. The animal rubs itself at the feet of the silent, motionless figure in the shadows of a doorway. Harry can see the big shoes of the figure picked out by slanting light. A mystery figure and he defiantly calls out to the figure to come out and reveal himself. Then, Holly momentarily and suddenly sees Harry, the 'third man' himself.
A light from an upstairs window briefly illuminates the figure's face, shining straight across the street. The sight of the teasing, smiling face of his friend staring back at him packs a punch in the somber mood of the film. It lights up briefly Holly's confused mind at a loss to explain the sudden demise of his friend. Amazed to see Harry still alive the viewer is given jab into sides hinting he being alive could only mean there is something evil in the air. Holly is startled and then the light is extinguished. Before Holly can reach his friend, a car approaches and blocks his path. The figure makes off and vanishes to the sound of retreating footsteps in the dark. Holly finds the doorway empty by the time he crosses the street.
Another scene that stays in my mind is the meeting of Lime and Holly atop a Ferris wheel above the Russian sector. In the light of the day, Lime emerges and greets Holly with a bemused look: "Hello, old man, how are you?" They both ride high above the ground on the ferris wheel that is still operating in the midst of the dark city – it is the last ride of Holly's symbolic childhood. As they rise higher in the car which they have all to themselves, Harry shows how uncaring he can be about Anna's predicament after betraying her to the Russians: "What can I do, old man? I'm dead, aren't I?" Harry explains how he doesn't wish to be a hero:
What did you want me to do? Be reasonable. You didn't expect me to give myself up…'It's a far, far better thing that I do.' The old limelight. The fall of the curtain. Oh, Holly, you and I aren't heroes. The world doesn't make any heroes outside of your stories.
Holly confronts Harry with his disgust at his racketeering and corruption (the light side exposing the dark side) and how he has already informed the police and Anna about Harry's charade and disappearance. Harry claims immunity in the neutral zones of Vienna. Knowing of his cynical dealings on the black market, Holly asks if he has ever seen any of his victims – children who populate the hospital wards [in a city and amusement park desolate of playful, happy children]. Harry looks contemptuously down from the ferris wheel at the scuttling mortals below, cheerfully calling the people unrecognizable "dots" from the height of the ride:
Victims? Don't be melodramatic. (He opens the door to the car.) Look down there. Would you really feel any pity if one of those dots stopped moving forever? If I offered you 20,000 pounds for every dot that stopped, would you really, old man, tell me to keep my money? Or would you calculate how many dots you could afford to spare? Free of income tax, old man, free of income tax. The only way you can save money nowadays.
They reach the very top of their ride on a child-oriented attraction, and for a few ominous moments [in a very different kind of amusement-thrill ride], Harry threatens Holly. He contemplates executing his uncooperative friend and making him one of the "dots" below because he is the only one with living proof of his existence: "There's no proof against me, besides you." Harry suggests that he could easily shoot him – a bullet hole in a corpse that had fallen from so high up in the wheel would not be found. Holly wraps his arm around a door frame and clutches it for protection:
Holly (looking out the window): I should be pretty easy to get rid of.
Harry: Pretty easy.
Holly: I wouldn't be too sure.
Harry: I carry a gun. You don't think they'd look for a bullet wound after you hit that ground.
But Holly counters the threat by mentioning that the police are already on his trail – they have dug up the corpse and discovered it wasn't him but Harbin. Harry is startled that the body of his cohort has been disinterred and his voice suddenly drops. As the car starts its journey downward, Lime closes the door, discards his deadly plan to dispose of Holly, and then compares himself to governments:
Harry: Nobody thinks in terms of human beings. Governments don't. Why should we? They talk about the people and the proletariat, I talk about the suckers and the mugs – it's the same thing. They have their five-year plans, so have I.
Holly: You used to believe in God.
Harry: Oh, I still do believe in God, old man. I believe in God and Mercy and all that. But the dead are happier dead. They don't miss much here, poor devils. (He traces Anna's name and the image of a heart with an arrow through it on the window of the car.) What do you believe in? Oh if you ever get Anna out of this mess, be kind to her. You'll find she's worth it.
When they reach the end of their ride and exit the ferris wheel on the ground, Lime offers his boyhood pal a partnership in his illicit business:
Holly, I'd like to cut you in, old man. There's nobody left in Vienna I can really trust, and we've always done everything together. When you make up your mind, send me a message – I'll meet you any place, any time, and when we do meet old man, it's you I want to see, not the police. Remember that, won't ya? Don't be so gloomy. After all, it's not that awful. Remember what the fellow says:
Then, he smugly delivers his famous and cynical monologue ad libbed by Welles and exactly in line with the whole mood of the film. The amoral Lime cynically justifies his black market criminal activities by recognizing that despite appearances, good and evil (black and white, peace and war, up and down, etc.) are complementary concepts. He puts his thesis in historical context:
In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed – but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long, Holly.
The final closing sequence of the film is just as memorable: Holly leans on a cart and waits on the tree-lined cemetery road for Lime's former lover Anna as she leaves Harry's second funeral on foot. Off in the distance, she is walking and approaching toward him, first a dot, then a shadow, and then a full figure – in an extremely long-held stationary shot. As he seeks in vain for any response from her, she stoically ignores him and continues by, passing him without paying any attention – without a pause, a look, a word, or a gesture. Holly follows her with his eyes, but she stares impassively ahead, walking out of his life. He lights a cigarette as the film fades to black.

CIO Carol Smith '85 Named a NITLE Fellow
December 14, 2012
Carol L. Smith, chief information officer at DePauw and 1985 graduate of the University, has been named a NITLE Fellow by the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education. "NITLE Fellows provide broad analysis, strategic insight, encouragement, and perhaps a little provocation to the liberal arts community," according to the organization. "Hailing from both within and outside higher education, these thought leaders connect NITLE and its members to broad understandings of digital technology and its impact, pointing to ways both can be understood."
NITLE's announcement notes, "At DePauw, (Smith) has played a key role in developing the Faculty Instructional Technology Support (FITS) program. Her current role as information services leader is to ensure that effective, appropriate, and sustainable IT resources and services are available to all students, faculty members, and staff members of the DePauw community."
Smith has served on the board of directors of the Indiana Higher Education Telecommunication System (IHETS) and will serve as a faculty member for the EDUCAUSE Leadership Institute Program beginning in 2014. After receiving her DePauw diploma, Smith went on to earn an M.S. degree in instruction systems technology from the Indiana University School of Education in 2001, and is a graduate of the Frye Institute.

There is hardly a secret that I am a big fan of Raymond Swanland's works. Last month I was happy to find that he put his great talent at work for Black Library too, producing yet another amazing piece, this time for a Warhammer novel, William King's "Blood of Aenarion". Raymond Swanland gave birth with his drawing tools once again to a very vivid piece of art, dark, powerful and richly detailed. Raymond Swanland is also one of the artists who might change my mind towards the characters featured on book covers, despite my reluctance for the covers that reveal characters depicted in their every detail. Anyway, for Raymond Swanland and his book covers in particular and artwork in general I have only a few words left: Keep them coming!
You can see more of the cover for William King's "Blood of Aenarion" on the Black Library's blog.

The Joy of Lawyering: Stephen D. Susman delivers 2012 Segal Lecture
By Mcallister Jimbo L'13
On Tuesday Nov. 27, Stephen D. Susman, Founding Partner of Susman Godfrey LLP, delivered the 25th annual Irving R. Segal Lecture in Trial Advocacy to a packed audience at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. In his lecture, entitled "The Joy of Lawyering: Partnership Agreements, Fee Agreements with Clients, and Pretrial Agreements with Opposing Counsel," Susman discussed his experience founding Susman Godfrey, the rationales behind his pioneering fee and pretrial agreements, and his passion for trial lawyering.
With a rich legal career and numerous accolades, Susman is celebrated as one of the nation's top litigators, having litigated several high-profile cases. He represented Frank McCourt, owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, in his battle over sole ownership for the team with his estranged wife and former Dodger CEO, Jamie McCourt. He also represented plaintiffs in a number of successful private antitrust actions against Microsoft Corporation. Who's Who Legal: The International Who's Who of Business Lawyers has twice named Susman the Leading Commercial Litigator in the World, and The Best Lawyers in America recognized him as being included in a distinguished group of attorneys who have made the list for 25 years or longer.
Susman began by describing how he found happiness in his own legal career, emphasizing the importance of removing unnecessary stress by securing the right agreements from partners, clients, and opposing counsel. After spending 7 years at a big law firm, Susman realized that he was not having fun practicing law. "I didn't like representing defendants on an hourly basis," he explained. "Big firms in the mid-70s were all about billable hours, except that you really didn't get compensated based upon how much you produced." He decided to take a leave of absence from the firm, teaching law classes at The University of Texas at Austin.
One year later, Susman decided to reenter the practice of law. But this time around, he wanted things to be different. "There had to be an alternative to the large firm, particularly since the whole idea was to do something that made a lot of money," he said. Susman had heard about plaintiffs lawyers in big cities making fortunes from antitrust and securities class actions taken on a contingent fee basis. Realizing there might be a market for such a practice in the Southwest, he joined Mandell & Wright, a small Houston maritime personal injury firm, to start a new commercial litigation practice there.
In setting up the practice, Susman implemented several measures designed to alter partner and associate incentives and promote efficiency. "First, I wanted to create a firm that was a complete meritocracy when it came to partner compensation," he explained. "Second, I wanted a firm that unlike the one I was leaving, was democratic in its governance and transparent in its finances." After successfully developing the practice, Susman decided to go out on his own, founding Susman Godfrey LLP in 1980. Since then, Susman Godfrey LLP has grown to 90 lawyers, with offices in Houston, Dallas, Seattle, Los Angeles, and New York.
Susman also discussed his firm's innovative fee arrangements with clients. "Our firm prides itself on pioneering the creation of fee arrangements that reward lawyers for results, not effort," he said. "On the plaintiff's side, that is usually a contingent fee agreement that is heavily negotiated and carefully drafted. On the defense side, we have developed similar arrangements that award us for result, not effort: fixed monthly fees that cover part of the value of our projected time, plus a variety of bonuses dependent on various results, like obtaining a dismissal or summary judgment, or settling the case within a short period of time or for less than a certain sum." Both fee structures reduce incentives to waste time, duplicate tasks, or prematurely settle.
Additionally, Susman described various forms of pretrial and trial agreements with opposing counsel. In explaining the agreements' utility, Susman noted, "I found that getting along with opposing counsel by making and honoring agreements meant for a much less stressful life. It also produces a better result for your client. You can better keep your eyes on what matters if you are not getting mad from bickering with opposing counsel." Some examples of such agreements include determining deposition procedures, requiring that all papers will be served by email, and banning either side from discovery of communications with counsel or draft expert reports. More examples can be found on the TrialByAgreement.com.
In his closing comments, Susman noted that traditional jury trials are declining, with clients increasingly preferring arbitration. Despite this decline, Susman believes there will always be a market for trial lawyers. "The skills required to persuade a jury are the same ones needed to persuade arbitrators," he said. Susman also foresees that the world's economic and environmental woes will require more regulation at the state, federal, or international level, which will continue to fuel a demand for trial lawyers. Addressing the audience, he concluded, "How much fun you have in filling that demand will depend on how you frame your agreements with your spouse, your law partners, your clients, and opposing counsel."
The Irving R. Segal Lecture in Trial Advocacy seeks to invite renowned oral advocates to speak at Penn Law. This lecture series was established by the late Irving R. "Buddy" Segal C'35, L'38, who was a leading member of Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis LLP in Philadelphia. Past speakers have included The Honorable A. Raymond Randolph, David Boies, and Walter E. Dellinger III.

Few are probably looking back at Ulduar now, but Vortex is pretty bull-headed when it comes to achievements (we do have a large number of tauren, after all). Lacking both a rogue (wound poison, misdirect) and a hunter (misdirect... he's currently vacationing in the Bahamas!), we finally forced our way through Yogg's defenses with no assistance from the keepers.
I covered both the basic Yogg Saron strat and One Light in a fair amount of detail. For the truest form of hard, however, take One Light and nix Thorim's 10% damage and 20% health buff, with no chance of actually killing the adds in phase 3 (thus having them constantly beating on your less-health-than-otherwise tanks).
It is tough, as one would expect. It all comes down to controlling the P3 adds around their shadows healing buff, aggro on healers, damage on the tanks, and burning down Yogg as fast as possible. ICC gear helps, even the ten-man stuff, for making up for the lack of wound poison and misdirects. Your entire raid needs to be on their toes and ready for anything. Getting through P1 and P2 is the easy part... not much change from One Light, aside everyone being squishier. It's P3.
Phase 3 Alone:
Your brain team should get Yogg down to 30% within 2-3 portal phases. With current iLevel 232-251 gear, it should only take 2 phases, assuming all goes well in the brain room. Topside team should be clearing all tentacles and running to the back of the room before the brain team pushes Yogg into P3: use voice chat to coordinate this.
- 2 Healers: run all the way to the wall. I mean ALL the way to the back wall: hug that wall so tight you leave claw marks. A holy paladin, even an offspec gimpy ret, is a major boon here with beacon of light. We used a holy pally and a resto druid. Keep full hots/heals/shields/etc running on both tanks and keep them both alive as long as you can, because when one of them dies, YOU are most likely going to die next.
- 2 Tanks: position yourselves between Yogg and your cowering healers. Make SURE you are in range of both healers, but spread yourselves out to minimize Empowering Shadow heals. Use every cooldown you have to keep yourselves alive. Trade off with each other picking up each new add spawn, and make sure you get them before they reach your healers. The longer the both of you stay alive, the longer the raid has to kill Yogg before he wipes you all out. When one dies, be ready to mass AoE taunt the other tank's adds to eek out a few more seconds for the raid.
- 6 DPS: burn Yogg. Ignore the adds and just burn the back of Yogg's head. Make sure you turn away from skulls, of course, but your job is to get Yogg down as quickly as you possibly can before the adds overwhelm your tanks.
Want a video of the chaos? Check out Vortex's 10-man video on Filefront (click to stream if you'd prefer!). It is from a warlock (topside team) point of view.
An edited version is hosted on YouTube as well, though lower quality.

The Marine Turtle Research Program was established at the La Jolla Lab of the Southwest Marine Fisheries Service to address the priority actions identified in the
U.S. Pacific Sea Turtle Recovery Plans.
These include:
Our research and conservation effort has mainly focused on the
leatherback and the
eastern Pacific green turtle due to concerns over alarming and dramatic population declines in the last two decades. We are, however, working in partnership with governments, universities, private institutions, and local communities throughout the Pacific to build collaborative research programs and implement a coordinated recovery effort for all sea turtles species.
The NMFS National Sea Turtle Molecular Genetics Center at the La Jolla Lab serves as a worldwide central depository for
sea turtle tissue and DNA samples and constitutes the core of our sea turtle research program.
Understanding marine turtle habitat use and migratory behavior is one of the most important goals of researchers at the Southwest Fisheries Science Center. Increasing our knowledge has required the use of a variety of turtle-borne telemetry systems in the wild. In every case, we optimize the value of these instruments by collecting the maximum amount of data per deployment, and data resulting from these efforts have been highly instructive for a variety of management initiatives. We also recognize that the telemetry packages themselves and their attachment methods must continually evolve to become smaller and more streamlined, hence reducing the possible negative effects on the turtles. To achieve these goals, we continuously innovate to improve equipment and attachment techniques. (

Get Your Anabolic Cycle Here
Select your goal below for customized cycle and stack recommendations.
Oxydex is a powerful steroid, with the main active substance being Oxymetholone (Anadrol).
This steroid is taken orally, mostly in pill form, and is touted to be the most potent oral steroid available.
The effects of taking it are almost comparable to those of the injectable testosterone which was the first anabolic steroid to be manufactured.
Notably, Oxydex is both an anabolic and androgenic steroid with a ratio of 320:45 respectively.
Its effects are considerably dramatic, and after taking only 50mg per day, some of the steroid users claim mass body gain of up to even 30 pounds in only seven weeks.
As such, it can be used in the synthesis of medicine for anemic patients and those struggling with weight loss and osteoporosis. Buy Anadrole online here.

Table of Contents
Normally the dosage for Anadrol is recommended in performance circles to be between 50mg and 100 mg per day for about 4-6 weeks.
Considering that this product has a number of adverse side effects, it is wise not to exceed the recommended cycle and dosage.
In some instances, desperate users may decide to experiment with 150-200mg in a day, which is way past the recommended dosage.
This might make them appear bigger and stronger within a very short period, which explains why one might be tempted to use it excessively.
However, there are some health concerns associated with such excessive dosages. Hence it is highly discouraged.
One thing experienced performance users often say is that dosages should rhyme with financial status to ensure that users can complete the entire cycle.
Notably, a dosage of 50mg is believed to yield awesome results, and it will not give the same financial burden as a more advanced cycle.
Even if you have the financial ability, many will recommend against a dosage of 100mg per day.
This may accelerate the bodybuilding process considerably, but Anadrol is one of the harshest steroid in terms of side effects and a cycle like this is inviting trouble.
Before taking this supplement, it is important to note that it increases production of erythrocytes/red blood cells, body mass, muscle strength, and appetite.
Bodybuilders and heavyweight lifters use it primarily because of its strengthening properties to help push through an excessive workout. It is a staple bulker in the anabolic-androgenic steroid world.
Also, the user gets a feeling of satisfaction, strength, and relaxation.
One of the worst side effects of this steroid — and any steroid for that matter — is that it puts a stop to the natural process of testosterone secretion.
Notably, this is a sex hormone and there is a risk of sexual dysfunction among other complications with excessive use of the steroid. Using Anadrol "in moderation" is not enough.
To avoid some of the unpleasant side effects of testosterone suppression, most men will cycle an injectable form of synthetic testosterone alongside Anadrol and engage in PCT to restart natural production of the hormone in the body.
Gynecomastia is possible, which is characterized by the swelling of the breast tissue in men or boys. The condition is caused by an imbalance of hormones in the body, especially estrogen and testosterone.
To reduce some of those estrogenic side effects, bodybuilders may try steroid adjunct drugs like Aromatase Inhibitors.
Liver damage is a significant risk with A-Bombs.
This is why it should never be stacked with another C17 alpha-alkylated steroid. Dianabol, another C17 aa steroid is also severely liver toxic, and if combined with A-drol could result in considerable harm to this vital organ.
Other side effects of short-term use may include water retention, balding, acne, bloating, and nausea. In particular, water retention is thought to be very serious since it leads to escalated blood pressure.
Some other serious side effects include:
< li>Hepatoxicity: It is very toxic to the liver and is considered one of the most toxic oral steroids out there
The drug is also reported to increase insulin resistance, as well as glucose intolerance, in the body.
Libido change, insomnia, and nervousness are some of the psychiatric effects of using the drug.
Notably, change in libido directly affects sexual behavior, interest, and ability which can be damaging to the user's psychological health.
The oligospermia and reduction of the volume of ejaculate may also be evident with some users.
For older male patients, there can be instances of enlarged prostrates which can lead to urinary obstruction. In such scenarios, the affected individual may decide to withdraw from society due to shame.
Females are highly discouraged from using this drug since it can affect them adversely.
In addition to most of the previously mentioned side effects, it also leads to clitoral hypertrophy, deepening of voice, and growth of facial hair.
These changes may be reversible in early stages of taking the drug, but they become permanent after continued use.
This steroid is available in many forms including tablets, liquid, and capsules. The market price is usually around $3.00 for 50mg of the drug.
You can purchase a legal alternative based on this steroid from CrazyBulk.
These dealers sell Anadrole, a legal alternative to steroids, in bottles of 60, at a price of about $1.25 per tablet.

June 15, 1995, Section C, Page 20Buy Reprints
One of the most anticipated and heavily promoted albums in years, Michael Jackson's "HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I," includes a song with lyrics that can be interpreted as pointedly critical of Jews.
Although Mr. Jackson has over the last decade built a reputation as a performer whose music consistently focuses on childhood, fantasy, love and brotherhood, his new double album, which is to be released by Sony Music on Tuesday, is profane, obscure, angry and filled with rage.
Because most of the lyrics on the album have been kept secret, few here appeared to be aware of its contents beyond the single "Scream," which has been released along with a music video. In the song "They Don't Care About Us," however, Mr. Jackson sings, "Jew me, sue me, everybody do me/ Kick me, kike me, don't you black or white me." The song also says: "Skinhead, deadhead, everybody gone dead/ Hit me, kick me, you can never get me." And at one point, Mr. Jackson sings, "I'm tired of being the victim of shame." The song's refrain is, "They don't care about us."
A copy of the album was obtained several weeks ago by Jon Pareles, the chief pop music critic for The New York Times, with the understanding that his review of it would not appear until Sunday, two days before the album's release. The review appears in the June 18 Arts and Leisure section, copies of which were available today, because the section is printed on Wednesdays.
In response to a reporter's query about the lyrics of "They Don't Care About Us," Mr. Jackson gave a statement to The New York Times this afternoon. It said: "The idea that these lyrics could be deemed objectionable is extremely hurtful to me, and misleading. The song in fact is about the pain of prejudice and hate and is a way to draw attention to social and political problems. I am the voice of the accused and the attacked. I am the voice of everyone. I am the skinhead, I am the Jew, I am the black man, I am the white man. I am not the one who was attacking. It is about the injustices to young people and how the system can wrongfully accuse them. I am angry and outraged that I could be so misinterpreted."
Appearing on the ABC News program "Prime Time Live" tonight, Mr. Jackson denied that "They Don't Care About Us" was anti-Semitic. "It's not anti-Semitic because I'm not a racist person," he said to the interviewer, Diane Sawyer. "I could never be a racist. I love all races."
He added: "My accountants and lawyers are Jewish. My three best friends are Jewish -- David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg and Steven Spielberg." Mr. Geffen, Mr. Katzenberg and Mr. Spielberg are partners in the Dreamworks studio.
Mr. Jackson's new album comes at a crucial point in his turbulent career, which was threatened two years ago by accusations of child molestation. Mr. Jackson settled a civil suit brought by a 13-year-old boy, reportedly for more than $10 million; a criminal suit was dropped.
"HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I" is being promoted by Sony at a reported cost of about $30 million. Mr. Jackson has not released an album since "Dangerous," in 1991, and his own advisers as well as those at Sony Music are anxious about the momentum of a career that once seemed golden.
When asked yesterday about the lyrics of "They Don't Care About Us," Sandy Gallin, Mr. Jackson's manager, said in an interview that they should be taken in context. "When I heard those lyrics, I thought they were brilliant," he said. "He's saying, stop labeling people, stop degrading people, stop calling them names. The song is about not being prejudiced. To take two lines out of context is unfair."
Melani Rogers, the vice president of publicity for Epic Records, a division of Sony Music, said in a written comment, "Our own reaction to that song is that it is a statement against prejudice of any kind."
A spokeswoman for Sony USA said that Michael P. Schulhof, the chairman, was traveling and unavailable for comment. Mr. Jackson's representatives at Creative Artists Agency declined to comment.
A booklet accompanying the album includes comments from Elizabeth Taylor, Mr. Spielberg and other celebrities. Mr. Spielberg, who directed "Schindler's List," is quoted as calling Mr. Jackson "one of the world's most precious resources." Marvin Levy, a spokesman for Mr. Spielberg, said this comment was made about two years ago, in connection with a television show.

About Volvo V90
The Volvo V90 is a 5 door station wagon that was sold by Volvo in some markets for the 1997 and 1998 model years. V90 was the new name assigned to the 960 wagon for these years. Other than the name plate, these cars are mechanically and visually the same as the 960 model that was produced for years previously. This change occurred in order to make the cars fit in with the new numbers and letters naming method that was now being used on the other new Volvo models rather than the old three number name system that was in use since the 1960s. Just because the name had changed does not mean the quality of the Volvo V90 parts were anything less than the excellence that previous Volvos had been known for. This was still your typical long lasting, durable, safe Volvo that it always was now just hiding behind a new name. The model continued production unchanged as the last two years of rear wheel drive Volvos ever made before the series was discontinued in favor of the new front wheel drive models which were coming out at that time.
