Product Description
Most of us have no idea how others see or process their experiences. And that can make relationships hard, whether with intimate partners, with friends, or in our professional lives. Understanding the motivations and dynamics of these different personality types can be the key that unlocks sometimes mystifying behavior in others--and in ourselves. This book from Suzanne Stabile on the nine Enneagram types and how they behave and experience relationships will guide readers into deeper insights about themselves, their types, and others' personalities so that they can have healthier, more life-giving relationships. No one is better equipped than the coauthor ofThe Road Back to You to share the Enneagram's wisdom on how relationships work--or don't.
- Why do Sixes seem so intimidated and put off by Eights, who only wish the Sixes would stop mulling things over and take action?
- Why do Fives seem so unavailable, even to their closest family and friends, while Twos seem to feel everybody else's feelings but their own and end up irritating people who don't want their help?
- How in the world can Fours be so open and loving to you one day and restrained and distant other times?

Oya's Song
Deep Hum Productions is named for that deepest vibration, perhaps the vibrating strings of "string theory", perhaps the Om of Hindu and Buddhist theology, that gives us that sense of oneness with the universe.

The On Screen/In Person Independent Film Series continues on Thursday, November 8 at 7 pm with "Dislecksia: The Movie" and a discussion with the director, Harvey Hubbell. Tickets are $10; $7 for Maryland Hall members. (Click here to purchase tickets.)
Come early for a beer or glass of wine and to meet Harvey Hubbell. Patrons will receive free popcorn and one complimentary glass of wine per paid ticket beginning at 6:30 pm. Wine and beer will be available for purchase for the evening.
Sitting down to view the film I thought to myself, sure, I'm familiar with Dyslexia. That is when people see words backwards, right? Well, there is a lot more to this learning difference than what I thought I knew. I expected to sit down and spend 90 minutes learning facts from professional interviews and seeing stats across the screen. I thought I would return to my reality armed with these new facts a wiser person. Well I did, and much more.
Director Harvey Hubbell V brings us through not only his journey with Dyslexia but the journey of the disorder itself. The myths and truths are explored through Harvey's contagious lightheartedness and positivity. Some of the most interesting perceptions are how many highly successful people live with Dyslexia and the ways they have learned to adapt. People like Stephen J. Cannell, Billy Bob Thornton and Emmy winning actress Sarah Joy Brown have made successful careers based on the need to read, yet share this learning difference.
I can only think how immeasurably frustrating it must be to feel like you can't keep up with your friends in class. School can be hard enough. As I watched the intimate views of struggles & shortcuts, it made me wonder what resources were available and how involved are the school systems? Well, those questions seem to have become easier to answer thanks to the determination and passion of some. Educators and scientists have developed learning programs that have evolved through the years to benefit those with Dyslexia and without. One of the places that these practices focus on is instructing teachers & educators on how to recognize and teach a child that experiences hurdles in learning. The Haskins Laboratories of Yale University have been implementing this practice worldwide. It seems that many teachers never knew how to reach a student who enters their classroom before these practices were taught to them. Many teachers have given feedback on how teaching in these new ways has eased the stress on the relationship they have with the students. The best part, all of the kids in the class can learn reading and writing skills this same way so students don't feel segregated or that they have a difference at all. Technology has proved to be a friend for the dyslexic as well. Former Harvard Neuroscientist turned educator Dr. Gordon Sherman takes advantage of technology to facilitate computer programs in audio/video that allow the dyslexic brain to thrive. Students are able to learn in a way outside of words, outside of ways that cause them anxiety and inside environments that encourage confidence to grow.
This film turned out to be one of my favorites that I viewed for this series. Harvey Hubbell V brings Dyslexia to light what many people don't even know about it and the constant attention that it needs in order for schools to continue to receive funding for their programs and to keep these priceless educators inside their walls. Watching these stories brings hope not just to those dealing with Dyslexia, but to people who are affected by any learning challenge.

Lapis Arm Chair
Furniture Design Focus: Lapis Arm Chair
A Good Furniture design example, the Lapis is a creative Arm Chair design. Lapis was designed in 2009, and here is a how it is described by its designer: An elegant chair to fill in the happy home spaces! You can lean backwards without fearing to fall, this chair is so comfortable that it redefines your feeling of comfort, you will never sit on another chair after this one!. I would also like to note that this is a re-interpretation of the Chinese Ming chair, we wanted to carry the traditional Chinese chair to the modern era and give it a new look and feeling. The initial inspiration comes from the Horseshoe chair, I wanted to turn this design into something that gives the feeling of strength and elegance at the same time, also I had opportunity to analyze leg structure of modern European furniture, this way I changed the legs of Ming to be somehow more modern, the structure is built upon a steel skeleton which is covered with real leather.

With the Certificate for Burial or Cremation your funeral director can start to make detailed arrangements for the funeral itself, although most will always be happy to discuss your wishes informally before this is available.
If there is a will, it's a good idea to contact the executor so they can start the process of obtaining probate and to see if the person who has died has left any instructions for their funeral. We can help you in finding a reputable probate specialist if you need support in this area.
It's also worth checking to see if there is a pre-paid funeral plan in place. As well as indicating the wishes of the person who has died, it should cover most of the costs involved.
Wills & Probate
Dealing with the financial matters of someone who has died is difficult, but essential.
If they have made a will appointing one or more executors, they can apply for a 'Grant of Probate' by contacting the local Probate Registry Office. If you are one of the named executors this will make it easier for you. This 'Grant' is a legal document, which confirms you have the authority to deal with the assets of the person who has died, such as property, money and possessions. The grant can be used to show that you have the right to access funds, sort out finances, and collect and share out the person's assets, as set out in the will.
If there is no will, a close relative can apply to the Probate Registry to deal with the estate. In this case, they apply for a 'Grant of Letters of Administration'. If the Grant is given, they are known as 'Administrators' of the estate.
Like the Grant of Probate, the Grant of Letters of Administration is a legal document which confirms the Administrator's authority to deal with the person's assets.
Every situation will be different and unique to the individual who has died. To help you choose a legal provider who offers a fair and fixed price, with no hidden extras and a dedicated Case Manager who should ensure that the estate work is handled quickly, your Funeral Director should be able to recommend a specialist with the relevant experience.

"Three adult media entertainment producers filed suit Thursday in the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois alleging copyright infringement against hundreds of anonymous defendants accused of trading videos using Bittorrent. This kind of action resembles the much-criticized mass litigation undertaken by the US Copyright Group against hordes of unknown accused Bittorrent users trading movies like The Hurt Locker. In this case, the subject matter promises to be more provocative."
In this case, the subject matter promises to be more provocative. Plaintiff Millennium TGA is known for producing content in the "transsexual adult entertainment niche." Plaintiff Lightspeed Media Corporation is alleging infringement of content including collections relating to its Jordan Capri and Tawnee Stone websites. Plaintiff Hard Drive Productions produces the Amateur Allure website.

When playing games on my laptop (MacBook Air 2011 with Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics), the temperature of the processor / GPU quickly reaches to 95°C causing it to throttle down every couple of seconds.
In this situation, the FPS drop from about 40-60 to 10 for a moment causing big stuttering.
In CSS, I was able to work around this problem by limiting the FPS using the built-in console command
fps_max 30 to 30.
This not only solves the stuttering but also reduces the noise and temperature of the CPU / its fan while gaming.
However, most games don't offer a comparable functionality (not that there are too many running on OSX :-) )
Especially when playing Left4Dead 2, I really miss
fps_max (which is not available there).
It seems that Valve has removed
fps_max from servers while stating
The fps_max convar will not have any effect on servers. (It remains as a client option since limiting your FPS can reduce GPU heat and overall power consumption.)
Does someone know whether they have included other measures to prevent GPU overheating similar to
fps_max? At least, they seem to know the downside of simply removing it.
Even better than a solution only applying to L4D2 would be a system wide option to limit the FPS in games.
Is there any?
Many thanks in advance for your responses!

There is a real magic in enthusiasm. It spells the difference between mediocrity and accomplishment.
Norman Vincent Peale
The Linaro 12.09 release is now available!
The Linaro 12.09 release cycle highlights the combined work and enthusiasm of all the Linaro Teams – Working Groups, Landing Teams andPlatform Teams – who have provided all the updates and new features that are integrated on top of Android and Ubuntu during this development cycle. The 12.09 release is another example of how Linaro succesfully–together with its members, partners and community–continue to build the future of Linux on Arm.
Zach Pfeffer, the Linaro Android Team, Tech Lead, explains to the Linaro Release team what he and his team have accomplished during this cycle. Linaro's patches to AOSP are now available on Jelly Bean and Linaro Android users should now see a 15% performance bump in their Android builds when combined with the Linaro toolchain. Developers now have another MALI based accelerated platform to work with as the Snowball graphics enablement is now available on the Linaro Jelly Bean build. The team also analyzed 10 of the most popular Android benchmarking tools: AndEBench, AndEBench Java, Linpack, CaffeineMark, Antutu 2D and 3D, NBench, Quadrant, I/O Benchmark and Vellamo. Additionally, the team has put together the NI PXIe-4154 based power measurement system with a VI which will allow the instrument to be easily integrated into LAVA. Also there is now an AOSP test automation framework that is able to automatically read and execute in-tree AOSP tests.
"During the 12.09 cycle the team started early work on a minimal Armv8 bootstrap, and we already have a very minimal rootfs with some parts to help other developers that want to get involved with the porting," says Ricardo Salveti, Developer Platform Team Tech Lead. "This work will be critical for the future of Linux on Armv8, as the major GNU/Linux distributions can use it as base to bootstrap and support this new architechture." In addition to the work highlighted by Salveti, the Developer Platform team also updated the kernel and test components for the big.LITTLE project, made substantial progress on the Debian/Ubuntu Perl and Python multi-arch/cross-build support, and noted that Hwpacks for Vexpress, Origen and PandaBoard now include the support for UEFI and can be selected while flashing the image with linaro-media-tools.
Linaro would also like to to remind everyone that Linaro Connect (LCE 12 Copenhagen) is less than 5 weeks away and registration is open. LCE 12 Copenhagen will be held from 29 Oct to 2 Nov at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Demark. In addition to the regular track sessions, LCE 12 will host three mini summits: an Armv8 (64-bit) mini-summit on the Tuesday, an Android mini-summit on the Wednesday and a big.LITTLE mini-summit on the Thursday. For those who are attending already and would like to or are planning on providing a demo for our Demo Friday the 'Call for Participation' is now open. More information about this and other Linaro events can be found on the Linaro Connect website. What are you waiting for join Linaro in Copenhagen for LCE 12. Dont forget; register today!
The Android-based images come in three parts: system, userdata and boot. These need to be combined to form a complete Android install. For an explanation of how to do this please see:
If you are interested in getting the source and building these images yourself please see the following pages:
The Ubuntu-based images consist of two parts. The first part is a hardware pack, which can be found under the hwpacks directory and contains hardware specific packages (such as the kernel and bootloader). The second part is the rootfs, which is combined with the hardware pack to create a complete image. For more information on how to create an image please see:

"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane will make a guest appearance on his show's fellow Fox animated hit "The Simpsons."
MacFarlane will try to win Marge Simpson's love in an episode entitled "Dangers on a Train," Entertainment Weekly reported. The episode will also feature comedienne Lisa Lampanelli, who will play MacFarlane's wife. The episode is slated to air next fall as the show's season premiere.
Both "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy" — which air on the same network on the same night — have exchanged jokes about each other over the years. But MacFarlane has also lent his voice to characters on "Futurama," another brainchild of "Simpsons" creator Matt Groening.
MacFarlane has kept an increasingly high profile recently. In September, he opened the newest season of "Saturday Night Live," and he is also set to host the upcoming Oscars in Los Angeles.

The father of a 15-year-old student who police say shot another student at a Baltimore County high school on the first day of classes says his son was bullied.
The father spoke to a reporter at his home Monday evening and said his son was the shooter. The Associated Press is not identifying the teen or his family because he is a juvenile and has not been charged.
A woman who was also at the home and said she was related to the father, gave the following statement on the family's behalf: "We are horrified. We did not see this coming and our thoughts and prayers are with the victim and the victim's family."
When asked about a motive for the shooting, the father indicated his son had been bullied. He gave no further details.
A 17-year-old male student at Perry Hall High School was shot in the school's cafeteria about 10:45 a.m. He was flown to the R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma unit, where he remained in critical condition Monday evening.
The suspect was arrested shortly after the shooting. Police believe he acted alone and fired randomly. The suspect is also a student at the school.
When the shooter took out a shotgun he had hidden and shot the 17-year-old, teachers and a school resource officer immediately rushed him, Baltimore County Police Chief James Johnson said at a news conference Monday afternoon. The first shot may have thrown off the shooter's balance, police said, but a second shot that didn't hit anyone was fired as he was being subdued, News4's Pat Collins reported.
Jordan Coates, a 17-year-old student who was in the cafeteria at the time of the shooting, said he watched teachers, including guidance counselor Jesse Wasmer, pin the student against a vending machine.
"My back was to the door. I heard a pop and thought it was a bag because people do that, but then I heard another one," Coates told The Associated Press. "And I turned around and a teacher had a kid pinned up against the vending machine, and I saw the barrel, and another shot goes off and people just start running."
Coates credited Wasmer with helping to stop the shooting, and numerous students took to Twitter to thank him.
"He grabbed the gun from the kid and got him" until other teachers came over, Coates said.
"We have some heroic and brave faculty members," Schools Superintendent Dallas Dance said. "They responded very quickly to minimize damage."
Seth Warner, a youth pastor at the Faith Fellowship Church across from the high school who graduated in 1999 with Wasmer, said he was not surprised to hear that the guidance counselor had intervened. He described Wasmer as "not big, but built."
"I knew that if anyone could take him down, it would be Jesse," Warner said.
Cathy Le, 15, said students were panicking as they tried to find out what was happening. They texted and called each other frantically as they were locked in their classrooms for more than an hour, she said.
WJZ-TV showed video of a shirtless male with his hands behind his back being put into a police cruiser.
Several other students suffered what police called "minor, non-shooting injuries."
The building was evacuated after the incident. Students were being escorted to the Perry Hall Shopping Center, where parents were able to meet them.
Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger said it was too early to know what charges the shooter would face. Police said they would work with prosecutors to determine whether he would be charged as an adult.
Detectives were interviewing the suspected shooter Monday afternoon, Baltimore County police spokeswoman Elise Armacost said. Officers spent several hours searching the school and found no other weapons or suspicious materials, she said. They are trying to determine how he got the gun into the school.
Police planned to provide additional security when the school reopens with normal hours for students and staff Tuesday, and stress counselors were called in to work with students, faculty and staff.
Gov. Martin O'Malley released a statement that read in part: "Today, on this first day of school for many students in our state, we've suffered a senseless act of violence. I'd like to thank the teachers and administrators for their courageous and life-saving actions. At this time, our thoughts and prayers are with the injured student and his family."
Perry Hall, Md., is a middle-class community along the Interstate 95 corridor, northeast of Baltimore.

A North Texas man is facing federal hate crime charges after authorities say he severely beat a gay man he met through an online service.
A federal criminal complaint reviewed by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram alleges 19-year-old Brice Johnson invited the victim to his home in Springtown, about 25 miles northwest of Fort Worth.
The victim, identified in court documents only as A.K., was beaten and thrown in the trunk of a car because of his sexual orientation. He suffered multiple fractures and was hospitalized for 10 days.
The latest news from around North Texas.
Johnson initially was charged with aggravated assault for the September attack. Federal authorities took him into custody last week.
Prosecutors said Johnson contended the beating was a prank that got out of hand. Conviction could get him 10 years in prison.

In National Review Online yesterday, Rob Long described his introduction to "the world's most complicated toilet" in a Japanese hotel. He described it delicately in an essay called "Dim Idea:"
There were hoses and nozzles where hoses and nozzles probably shouldn't be, and along the side there was an alarming set of buttons and switches, which made the entire contraption look like a neat freak's electric chair.
He was impressed, found an American dealer, and had one installed. It uses a lot of water, which turned his mind to the nanny government's problem with our lightbulbs, and of course the low flush or low flow toilets that you have to flush several times, erasing the whole intent of saving water, and low-flow shower heads. Remember when they sent you the little metal washer-thingy to put in your showerhead to restrict the flow, and of course nobody did, so they ordered manufacturers to build a restrictor in? People were going to Canada to buy a decent toilet.
Unless you have stood in the aisle in Home Depot where they have the fancy showerheads, and dreamed of having one of the big ones, or the multiple nozzle versions, you may not appreciate the potential loss to us all. With those, the nannies did not go after consumers, but after the manufacturers. A big shower rose, like the Raindance Imperial 500 AIR may sell for as much as $5,457. It has a 24-inch spray face, 358 no-clog channels and a triple-massage option. Wow.
In May, the DOE turned on the plumbing-products industry, and said that it would adopt a strict definition of the term "showerhead" in enforcing standards that have been on the books, mostly unenforced, for nearly 20 years.
The industry responded quickly. "It was not the legislative intent of Congress to authorize the DOE to regulate the bathing habits of Americans," the VP of California Faucets wrote to the DOE in June.
A 1992 federal law says a showerhead can deliver no more than 2.5 gallons per minute at a flowing water pressure of 80 pounds per square inch. For years the term "showerhead " was deemed to refer to a nozzle. In May, the DOE decided that all nozzles were considered to be a "showerhead."
In May, the DOE's general counsel fined four showerhead makers $165,104 in civil penalties.
The DOE's lawyer says that of course Congress limited consumer choice. "When you waste water, you waste energy." Each multi-head shower fixture uses an extra 4o to 80 thermal units of energy per year, equivalent to 50 gallons of gasoline, or one barrel of oil, he says.
For a while, some time ago, I was following some of the insane regulations that were flowing out of European Union bureaucracies to control the intricacies of perfection of food in European markets. They ordered toys for pigs, they controlled the size and curvature of bananas, the shape of other fruits. The lists were endless.
A family had made a marmalade for years from apricots (if I remember correctly) but the EU said it could not be produced, for marmalade was made only from oranges. The ultimate, to me, was when they ordered farmers who sold eggs to label each egg with the name and address of the hen — in case there were complaints?
It is apparently in the nature of Lefties, that they must control the most minute details of the lives of others. We have pretty much established that they do not willingly allow others to disagree with them (see my many rants), but this drive for control of everything is just plain sick. It is not their business. Are their lives so shallow and so empty that they must fill the hours by controlling others?
There are many multi-millionaires among the Democrat leadership. I strongly suspect that most of them do not have small stall showers with water-restrictive shower heads. Lefties have never been bothered by being hypocrites, they just like to call other people that.
The sick controlling impulse of these control-freaks is way out of line. They tell themselves that they are doing it "for the children" or "to save the planet" which makes them feel good and important. They are doing it to feed their own egos, and they are neither good nor important. They are zealots. We have a long and very ugly history with zealots who cannot control their impulses. November can't come soon enough.

Regarding low-flush toilets, I don't see what is the big deal. In Europe, most toilets today are sold with two buttons. Push one for No. 1, and the other for No. 2. I don't know whether these are sold in response to consumer demand (to reduce consumers' water bills), or due to regulations (doubt it, as one can buy single-flush toilets as well), but these "dual flush" toilets work just fine. And they are not complicated to use: the small button for #1, the big button for #2.

Liberty News
Doctoral student advises world's largest public high school Bible club
|Joe Harmon
A Bible club at a Pennsylvania public high school, advised by a Liberty University doctoral student, has gained national attention as the largest of its kind in the world. The club from Redbank Valley High School in New Bethlehem, Pa., has been featured on Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) twice and has inspired Christian high schoolers across the country to start Bible clubs in their schools.
Joe Harmon, who is on pace to begin his dissertation next year in Liberty's Doctor of Education program, is the club's advisor. He will begin his 10th year at Redbank this fall and currently teaches eighth grade civics and 10th grade U.S. history.
Harmon said the students are fully responsible for running the club, which regularly attracts about 300-350 of their classmates — more than half the school. The club meets on Mondays during the school's activity period. In his advisory role, Harmon handles any behavior issues and works with the club's leaders to ensure they have enough material to fill the timeslot and that the material is appropriate.
|Redbank Valley High School's Bible club was recently featured on Christian Broadcasting Network. CBN first featured the club in 2011.
The club is now an important aspect of the community, its influence extending beyond the meetings, throughout the school, into town, and even to other states.
"For the students who are already believers, it shows them that their faith does not need checked at the campus door; they can bring God with them into their school," Harmon said. "I witness students praying before they eat lunch, before games … I see kids actively reading their Bibles or devotionals in study halls. I see kids unashamed to be a believer."
Throughout the school and the community, Harmon said the club has created "a culture of acceptance for Christianity and reverence for God."
"The community has supported the club immensely — it really has brought together the different youth groups and has provided a unifying presence in general," Harmon said.
He said the club has helped him grow in his faith as well. When Harmon was asked to take over the responsibility of the club eight years ago (then called Fellowship of Christian Athletes), he said he was just a "baby believer" with little knowledge of the Bible. He began working with students to select officers and leaders, taking a back seat as he witnessed membership surge from 40 to more than 100 students.
As news of the club's success gained national attention, other people began contacting the school asking how they could do this. Many others found it as a source of inspiration and hope.
"So much negative attention is placed on today's youth and on the awful things occurring in schools," Harmon said, calling the club's story "an inspirational boost."
"Whether you are a believer or not, it is impressive that 19 student leaders get up in front of their peers on a weekly basis, organize club meetings, and run a club that has such an impact. They are truly an inspiration."
|Joe Harmon (right), a Liberty University doctoral student, huddles with Bible club leaders, whom he advises, at Redbank Valley High School.
Harmon started a ministry online called School Bible Club to help others wishing to start Christian clubs on their own campuses. This ministry is not affiliated with the school and does not try to duplicate what occurs there. Harmon has had the opportunity to speak at churches, a youth convention, and meet with pastors, parents, and students.
"One of the pieces of advice I give is to remember that clubs don't have to be controversial; the student leaders at Redbank focus on the nature and character of God, on the Gospel message, week in and week out," Harmon said. "They aren't radical; they just teach biblical precepts like love, forgiveness, joy, respect for authority, self-worth, etc."
He said the biggest challenge for students at first is not understanding federal guidelines and being afraid of the controversy.
"I've talked to students who have tried to initiate a club but the principal was fearful of litigation. I advise the students to do their homework, to read what has been done by other clubs to get them in legal trouble. This way, they can go to their principal and hopefully assure them that the club they initiate will be in line with federal guidelines."
At Redbank, the teens share the Gospel regularly and have seen a number of their classmates come to Christ as a result of the club. As they prepare their lessons for the week, they are sure to incorporate many fun elements, including worship, videos, and skits. But the rapid growth and success can only be attributed to God, Harmon said.
"It was merely on the announcements, 'Come to a Bible club meeting,' and they showed up and continued to show up and come in droves."
One of the criticisms, he said, is that some students only come to "get out of homeroom."
"Well, so what? They at least hear a Christian message for a portion of the club, pray as a group, and be a part of something that's greater than them," he said. "There are other clubs they could attend, but for some reason, most come to Bible club. I think it says, for the most part, kids are interested in what's happening. I truly believe kids are seeking answers, are searching for truth, and hope to find it, even a piece of it, through Bible club."
As the club continues through new generations of leadership, Harmon said it is important that they keep the fire alive. Last year the club started a mentorship program for seventh- and eighth-grade students to work alongside the older leaders so they can see how the club operates and share in its vision.
For Harmon personally, advising the club has been a source of inspiration for his spiritual walk, even prompting him to pursue his doctorate with Liberty, the world's largest Christian university.
"I didn't get into teaching thinking I would ever do this, but apparently God had other plans. The growth of my walk with Christ parallels the growth of the club. I love travelling around to speak about the club and hopefully inspire using what is occurring at our school. And I get to advise some of the best teens around to run a club that reaches so many."

South Side Eats: Get a Taste of Belize at Garifuna Flava
Shame on me for taking so long to get to 63rd St. in Marquette Park for a taste of Belize at Garifuna Flava. It was always on my radar, but in a city with as many eating options as Chicago you sometimes forget certain spots when a time that works comes. Well, my time came with this South Side Eats column, and if I want to take something good out of my delayed appearance, it couldn't have come at a better time.
Garifuna Flava is no stranger to the media. It's been praised for their bold flavors locally and nationally. Even that Guy from the Food Network has rolled through, although I think he chose to leave the red Camero at home for this trip. Even so, props to him for checking out this fantastic family-owned restaurant specializing in the food of the Garifuna people. These are the descendants of Carib and West African people who primarily live in Central America along the Caribbean Coast particularly in Belize, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. They're a group of folks very committed to their roots. They maintain the same culture from past generations by keeping many different traditions from their Afro-Caribbean heritage alive. Of course, music, art, and food play a big role in doing so. Traditional Garifuna meals revolve around fish, chicken, cassava, bananas, and plantains. Most are rich and hearty. Like I was saying, with winter here, now is the time to get familiar.
Starting off with an order of their bestseller panades paired with conch fritters is a good way to go. The fritters are like most you'll find in South Florida and the Caribbean, which means a lot of batter and some conch here and there. But you dont have the option of eating these at most every meal like you do when on vacation down there, so I enjoyed their version considering it's been a while. They came with a crispy exterior and a moist interior, and I was able to spice them up just right by adding some of Belize's most well known export. Marie Sharp's hot sauce sits at every table. The Panades were sensational. These are corn patties stuffed with hashed buffalo fish and a sweet vegetable sauce, and just like the first time I tried a Jamaican beef patty, I'm instantly addicted to them.
The Belizean Stew Chicken has to be one of the best cheap lunch specials (available 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.) in Chicago. Chicken is marinated with bell peppers, onion, vinegar, paprika, and black pepper, and then slowly stewed and until fall apart tender. All lunches come with rice and beans, fried ripe plantain, and your choice of salad. For those that don't have the time to slow cook meats but want some in their life, head here.
But the real star of the show and a reason I cant wait to get back are the soups. All three options sounded particularly appealing, especially the conch soup, but it's only served based on the availability of conch, so call ahead if that's what you're planning to try. Since it was not available on this trip, I went with the Hudut Baruru. Huh? That would be a coconut milk stew seasoned with black pepper, garlic, onions, oregano, and other spices, with a filet of kingfish in it. On the side is fufu, a.k.a. mashed plantain used for dipping into the soup.
Although this was my only familiarity with Garifuna food, I know a good soup broth when I taste one and this was deep. I'm talking the type of bowl where each and every spoonful gets slurped. The rich coconut milk gives it some Thai flavor, but it takes on a taste all it's own. Fufu is traditionally used to soak up the broth—similar to the bread you get with a steaming bowl of mussels. All in all, a very satisfying dish that's sure to bring craves as winter continues on. Beer and liquor are served, and the space is big enough to accommodate large groups. Add in great hospitality, a relaxing atmosphere, and one of the world's rarer cuisines being served, and you got a spot that's a true city treasure. If this is your first time hearing about it, don't make the mistake I did and wait so long to stop in. I won't go that long between visits again, that's for sure. Much love.

Martyrs Valentine and Pasikrates in Moesia, Bulgaria
The Martyrs Valentine and Pasikrates came from the city of Durostorum, Silistria (now Bulgaria) and were soldiers under the governor Absolanus. Pasikrates was twenty-two years old, and Valentine was thirty.
When a persecution against Christians began, Saints Pasikrates and Valentine openly confessed their faith in Christ. At the trial Pasikrates spit at the idol of Apollo, and refused to offer sacrifice.
The brother of Saint Pasikrates wept and urged him merely to appear to offer sacrifice to the idols. The martyr placed his hand on the sacrifice in the fire and said, "The body is mortal and burns in the fire, the soul, however, is immortal and is not harmed by these torments." Saint Valentine also showed his readiness to suffer for Christ.
When they led the martyrs to execution, the mother of Saint Pasikrates followed them and exhorted her son not to fear death for Christ. Both martyrs were tortured and then beheaded in 288.

History of the Prize
Sir Gilbert Morgan was the first Director of the Government Chemical Research Laboratory, and a dedicated academic and industrial chemist, as well as a passionate teacher. Born in Essendon in Hertfordshire, Gilbert studied at the Finsbury Technical Institute, where he developed interests in azo dyes and rare earth metals, fields which had a major impact on his later career. His first industrial experience, working for Read Holliday and Sons in Huddersfield, allowed him to study a wide variety of chemical problems. While working there Morgan produced a best-selling dye, Titan Como Blue, and discovered a clear amber resin, later to be commercialised by Baekeland as a component in the first synthetic plastics.
After working in industry for a number of years, Morgan returned to study at the Royal College of Science in London, with subsequent promotion. There, as throughout his career, his interests were wide-ranging, and as well as his primary research into the diazo-reaction, Morgan also researched compounds from carbohydrates to terpenes. It was during this time that his involvement with the Chemical Society began, firstly as Editor of the Journal and then Secretary.
In 1912 the Royal College of Science, Dublin, appointed Morgan as Chair of Chemistry, where he returned to research in an area of early interest to him - high pressure reactions. When the First World War began, Morgan helped to rebuild the British Dye Industry, and worked closely with the Chemical Warfare Committee. As the Mason Professor at Birmingham in 1919, Morgan dedicated himself to inspiring and teaching his students, as well as undertaking all the administrative work involved in the role.
The Government Chemical Research Laboratory appointed Morgan as the first Director in 1925. There he instigated three long-term research projects with industrial applications, but simultaneously encouraged fundamental research, and the laboratory under his leadership was a demonstration of how pure and applied research could be brought together.
Morgan was honoured with a knighthood in 1937, and served as President of the Chemical Society and the Society of Chemical Industry.

I am such a Barkley geek.
I've been fascinated by this race since I became an ultra runner. When I had my podcast, in 2007, I had the pleasure of interviewing Laz and then Flying Brian Robinson after his course record.
I've been following the limited words and pics that have made it out of Frozen Head this past weekend. Part of the fun is the sometimes cryptic messages and long lag times in updates.
Also part of the fun is there is no Entrants List. Some runners outed themselves; others knew of folks running. More people get revealed when folks start requesting updates on Twitter on certain runners.
This was an EPIC Barkley weekend.
First, Brett Maune becomes the first person to finish the Barkley TWICE. He also sets a new course record
in 52 hours 3 minutes.
Then Jared Campbell makes it back to camp, finishing Barkley on his first try, ALSO breaking the old course record held by Flying Brian Robinson, in 56:00.
John Fegyveresi was still "Out There".
Idly checking my emails, I see that John was chasing the clock. Wow. It would suck to just miss the cut off.
Then, one email! A headlamp has been spotted, with 20 minutes to spare!!
Wow, now I'm not doing anything but waiting for an email update, and sure enough John Fegyveresi finishes also, in 59 hours 41 minutes!
Three Barkley finishers. Wow. History.
But let's not also forget more history.
Beverly Anderson Abs became the 1st female since 2001 to finish the Fun Run. I forget her time right now, but it's a great step in the right direction!
Ok, I am still all amped up. I wish I could go for a run right now.

Clothing drive seeks extra funds to serve Neb. foster kids
A clothing drive that helps hundreds of foster kids in need is looking for extra donations to receive more clothes.
The Foster Care Closet gives kids new clothes and provides care while they wait for a foster home.
"We're making sure the kids are getting fed. We're making sure they are getting new clothes to take with them," said Leigh Esau.
Foster Care Closet usually relies on donations of gently used or new clothes. The group gets discount clothes from business partners, including Walmart and Old Navy.
But now, it has a chance to get free clothes. One Simple Wish, a national charity, selected Foster Care Closet as a regional partner.
"She has said, 'If you can bring a 10-foot truck, we will load it,'" Esau said.
One Simple Wish would give enough to give each of the 1,500 kids they help five new outfits. To receive the clothes, Foster Care Closet will have to rent a truck and drive to New Jersey to pick up the clothes.
"We're looking at $3,300," Esau said.
Even after paying the transportation costs, Esau said the price per outfit is still considerably less than buying new clothing, even at discount.
The Foster Care Closet could use money it receives from a state contract to serve kids in Lincoln and southeast Nebraska, but if the group raises the funds on its own, it can distribute clothes throughout Nebraska.
"We serve kids from Omaha to Scottsbluff," Esau said.
Esau said for some of the kids, these are first new clothes they have ever received.
"For some of our youth, it becomes so overwhelming they just sit down and cry," Esau said.
To donate to the Foster Care Closet, call 402-617-0667 or visit its Facebook page.

26th Annual Mopar Nationals - A Columbus Convergence
The 26th annual Mopar Nationals, As Good As Ever
It's a gathering of large-by-huge proportions. every August, all-things Mopar converge on National Trail Raceway near Columbus, Ohio. The event should be considered an "at least once in a lifetime must-do" for any Mopar enthusiast.
If you like racing, they've got it. Do you like looking at restored and modified Mopar show cars? they have that too. Need a part? You'll find it at the Nats.
If you weren't tired enough from walking the show grounds, you could spend the evening cruising. Brice Road has always been known as the place to go after the show, but the small town of Heath, just east of the racetrack, is quickly becoming just as popular as an after-hours destination for cruisers.
While we could go on and on about what happened at the Nats, let's get to showing you what was there.

It's not quite what you expect to see but there to greet us at the entrance to the chemo unit was a bird of prey. It wasn't long after lunch and the kestrel had just killed a vole in the hospital car park.
Like the bird, I was about to do something pretty violent, in my own way, in order to survive.
Rather than feeling squeamish, I enjoyed seeing such a powerful creature. It seemed like an inspiring sight just before chemo#7. I didn't realise why until I did a little research while waiting for my chemo cocktail to be mixed up.
Some people apparently see the kestrel as a warrior or a warlike symbol and in battle they use its image believing that it gives them prowess. The bird represent success, victory and rising above a situation.
Wow – I'll take all of that thank you very much.
The skill of the kestrel is to hover in the air, locate its target and then choose the right moment to strike. According to a mystic on the internet, they are all about focus. When you see one it's a sign that you should focus on your goals and do what's necessary to make your desires become a reality.
The bird's timing was perfect. I'm now entering probably the hardest part of my treatment. The side effects are getting worse and yet it seems like there's no end in sight to the chemo sessions. Still 11 to go after this one. Even if none of the kestrel stuff is true, it was lovely to see something so special.
It was almost a relief to get back to the business of fighting cancer. This week has been a nightmare thanks to the actions of one person. I don't even know if they are a man or a woman but The Idiot has caused me lots of trouble. And yes, they know that I have cancer.
I have wasted hours worrying. I even spent a whole day of my precious life just crying in bed. This big stressful thing has come along just when I really don't need it. I won't go into details as it's complicated and I've had to explain it far too many times.
The day before chemo I didn't put on much make-up as I knew I'd probably end up in tears. Ahead I had some horrible hospital tests and the prospect of throwing away huge chunks of time on the phone because of that big stressful thing.
I decided to base myself at Maggie's Cancer Care Centre. It's a place offering coffee and support. It's right next to a hospital but it doesn't look or smell like one. There are a number of Maggie's Centres around the country, mine is a beautiful oasis, designed by a famous architect. I was hoping for some friendly words of advice and perhaps some cake. I got that and much more.
I was already on my phone talking about the actions of The Idiot when I walked into Maggie's. I could see that one of the staff wanted a word with me. Once I'd finished my call, I was asked if I wanted my make-up done by a professional. Oh, let me think about that for a few seconds.
The make-up session at Maggie's was only interrupted twice by my mobile and that big stressful thing. However getting some smokey eyes certainly relaxed me.
Later when I ended up sitting in a hospital corridor with only a couple of cotton gowns to cover my dignity, I looked a lot more glam than usual. I continued to take yet more phone calls relating to The Idiot but I felt stronger. Thanks to some very lovely people, hopefully it's being sorted now.
From the random make-over to the magnificent bird of prey, life didn't seem quite so bad. Then during treatment I got an upgrade from chemo club class. I didn't have to sit in a big pink chair; I had a proper bed in an en-suite room.
Perhaps I got the side room as I was living dangerously. Once again I had opted to cut my steroids. Now I'm on a quarter of a dose. Reducing them before didn't give me any problems. Mum and my friend Chantal, the flower girl, kept an eagle eye on me. But it was fine. I just slept in the comfy bed covered by a thin blanket.
I dreamed of the kestrel. My warrior bird of prey hovering in the sky, waiting for the perfect opportunity to swoop on my tumour. Attacking it and killing the cancer.
Normally I focus on 007 doing my dirty work. Could it now be a case of move over James Bond there's a new bird in town?

give the word(redirected from give us the word)
give (someone) the word
To give an order, make a request, or expressly state a desire for someone to do something or undertake some task. We're ready to begin writing the report whenever you are, so just give us the word, and we'll get going. If the President gives the word, the military could begin airstrikes as early as tomorrow morning.
give the word
Also, say the word. Give an order, tell or show when something is to be done, as in If you want us to move out, just give the word, or When you want the car, just say the word. The first expression, dating from about 1400, originally alluded to uttering a password in response to a sentinel's challenge. The second is even older, appearing in an early translation of the biblical books of Genesis and Exodus: "And God said the word to Abraham."

Giants fans can now upgrade their in-game seating experience right from their seat
The Giants and Pogoseat collaborate to further enhance the fan's seating experience at AT&T Park
The Giants have collaborated with Bay Area seat upgrade provider, Pogoseat, to offer fans the opportunity to enhance their in-game seating experience while at AT&T Park. Fans who enter the park with their original game ticket but decide they would like to upgrade their seat location on the spot can now do so by searching available seats directly from the MLB.com At The Ballpark app.
This new seating feature, available in-park only, will launch during the Giants vs. Dodgers game on Sept. 25, at 7:15 p.m. at AT&T Park. It will be available from the time the gates open through the 5th inning of all home games.
"We are always looking at ways to make the in-park experience the best it can be for our fans. We see our partnership with Pogoseat as another exciting way to enhance the fan experience while at the park. Now fans can check out ticket inventory that may not have been available when they originally purchased their tickets," said Russ Stanley, Giants managing vice president, ticket sales and services.
Fans who purchase seat upgrades will be charged the difference between the price they paid for the original ticket they entered the park with and the new seat they purchase using Pogoseat, with a minimum fee of $10.
"This is an exciting partnership for us, said Max Lebovitz, vice president of marketing for Pogoseat. The Giants are a captivating team playing in a state-of-the-art venue at AT&T Park that is known for beautiful views and some of the best ballpark food in the country."

Someone's uploaded 458 John Peel shows to Soundcloud
what the fuuuuuuuuuuck. there goes my life.
now i just need to buy back my Nissan Sunny and get a load of hash and hot box it with my mates whilst listening to these.
I will be falling asleep to these
Just like the old days.
Then I'll wake up listening to the last four bars of something awesome thinking - what the fuck was that?
incredible. i was always sort of hoping they would be avilable
but just figured it was never a reasonable thing to happen. great stuffPale-eyedBadger, incandenza_, and andyvine this'd this
Cheers for this.
Also the content of each session might interest you
Also you can browse by artists:
Holy crap this is great
I remember tracking a load down on Soulseek a while ago, ones from the early 80s. His voice sounded weird then, a bit more high pitched and posh. This goes right back to the 60s by the looks of it !
Used to have tapes (which I've gradually lost over the years) of the shows. Just stumbled across a track I loved (Morocco - New Javelins apparently). This is ace.
Also, if anyone hears a spoken word track about a man fighting a monster on a beach which ends: 'So I dropped to one knee, raised my AK-47 assault rifle and shot him in the head' or a rock-era PJ Harvey-esque band with the singer screaming 'Touche! You know! Come on!' can you let me know whereabouts they are. Late 90s I think. Ta.
I really hope these don't disappear.
I missed this man's voice.
This is so great.
I never got to listen to his shows before he died. Did Radio 1 actually used to be this good?
It wasn't all this good,
but not all of the shows were presented by people with rotating glitter balls where their brains should be.
these are fucking brilliant, aren't they?
I forgot how much I missed this show :-(
I'm starting with the New Order special.
the idea goes that nobody liked everything he played
I liked most of it, so whatevs.
but it was just so great hearing him talk. sometimes you'd look forward to a song ending just to hear what he had to say. also, it was ace when he made mistakes :D.
:(sonicmidwife, didyousayhand, blimeycharlie, and andyvine this'd this
some should edit this
down to just the bits of him talking about Fall records.Icarus-Smicarus this'd this
how many days a week was he on Radio 1?
I have it in my head that it was every night but I'm not sure.
depends when
by the end it was 3 or 4 days a week? For a while he was just on sautrday afternoons. Or am i just making this up?
he liked it all
he always maintained that if he didn't like something, it was his problem.
from listening to him, my natural craving for new, interesting music grew, and when faced with something I didn't get, I tried really hard to get it, because he liked it and I trusted him.
this continued outside of listening to Peel - obviously shit cynical money-driven stuff aside - and I ultimately found myself listening to anything, regardless of genre. and if I like something, I really like something.
I figure he had a similar path; challenging himself constantly and finding that as he did, his capacity to appreciate and love music grew.
at the end
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 23:00 to 01:00.
sometimes things he didn't like
got into the festive 50 & he always used to say he didn't like it, but you lot do, or you lot voted for it for some reason, or stuff like that
saddest drive home ever
was the day that he died
traffic jam that day so got to listen to all the tributes on the way home
I know that!
Festive Fifty aside...
this will help
with saving money in coming months? coming out? no, im staying in listening to john peel. just like the good old days. *reminiscence weep*
He was definitely on Saturday afternoons in the mid-90s
Imagine music like that being played on daytime weekend Radio 1 now!
he always played what he liked
here's the clip of him playing Wham and having no shame in it
glad someone's done this. I was in the audience for 148.
I think
he played stuff that he thought was interesting and worth listening to. That's not quite the same as liking something.
One of the things that set him apart from other DJs is that he never preached - he never tried to educate his listeners, or demand they liked certain bands. A lot of DJs now say "This band is really good, you will love them and they're going to be huge and you should all be buying the record". There's an ego associated with telling someone something is good ("I have good taste") and he never did that. He'd just occasionally say "what a great record" or something like that. And yet he broke so many bands.
I certainly can't see him ever pretending to be hip, that's for sure!
was record shopping next to peel at a stall once,
that's probably gonna be a decent place for buying records.
I switched straight to Radio 1 when I found out
It made me realise how crap everyone else really is. DJ bloody Spoony had to do a slot, he really didn't have a clue what to do or say. "Here's another shit R&B song" most likely.
Just listening to the 11/02/1980 show right now...
He's just played a Martha & The Muffins album track and he's mentioned how "some say that Richard Branson's now worth 15 million pounds" :D
God no, if anything it was even worse then
Daytime Radio 1 in the 1980s was a hideous, hideous thing
well, I can imagine
1) the fact Soundcloud pays no royalties, will irk some labels/acts on there.
2) the fact the BBC/TV license payer technically owns the shows will be a problem (tho they seem to be more accepting of YouTube 'piracy' and all that these days)
3) someone somewhere probably wants to monetize these at some point in the future...Pale-eyedBadger and andyvine this'd this
which is really incredible
I struggle with filling one hour of radio with good stuff a week, let alone six.
(it also means these shows represent a tiny fraction of his output!)
puhlease yes
hope these don't get taken down straight away
for several years prior to and a few years after his death, evenings were great
gone to shit since, Benji B aside.
he appreciated - liked - it all
if he thought something was worthwhile, that meant he liked it to some degree.
totally agree on the latter point; I loved that about him. no pushiness. even if he loved something, it was always riddled with self-deprecation.
seriously, fuck the whole excessive, aggrandising hype presenting and the 'trust us' shit Radio 1 has had going on in recent years. lies. it's gotten progressively less trustworthy/more compromised by trying to keep with 'key youth demographics'.
I was numb, completely in shock for days
the radio was my best friend. and he was like a surrogate dad/cool uncle. it was devastating.
I can remember hearing the news announced by Colin and Edith. felt like the floor had collapsed beneath me.
this is great
now if someone in canada would do the same with CBC's David Wisdom. He was most certainly a student of Peelie.
I posted the link to the Peel stuff to an e-mail list I'm on
& it prompted someone else to mention they needed an online way to post the Nightlines stuff they had, so you might get your wish.
already discovered like 63 bands from these.
the best there's ever been.iaminterested this'd this
So people here are downloading these just in case right?
I grabbed all the pre-90's ones, but bandwidth has taken a real hammering just recently, so I could do with waiting to get the rest. Be nice to know I might be able to get any I'm missing from someone here if they do get taken down.
Yeah, I didn't think of that
might get on it now actually.
I grabbed a program that does batch downloads from Soundcloud
There's a few around, just do a search._TheBeautifulOnes_ this'd this
I've filled pages of a notepad already
of records I need to check out. I never do this listening to any of the R1 shows normally.
For anybody wanting tracklistings
I managed to locate tracklistings for the 2002, 2003, 2002 shows on the old keeping it peel site http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/johnpeel/tracklistings/ & 92-2001 shows here http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/Lorcan's_Tracklistings_Archive
In the early 80s...
...he was on 10 - 12, Mon to Thurs. I think Tommy Vance had the Friday night slot..
ah shit!
I only downloaded 50!
If these should go down, all of the later shows (from when they appeared on-line, on 'Listen Again' etc) can be found on various sites.
Over the past year or so, I've been listening to shows from 2001 - 2004 again and thoroughly enjoying them. Particularly interesting how my own tastes have changed in the 10 years since. It's a real pleasure to hear old timey country and delta blues records now, rather than leaving the room to make a cup of tea and hoping the next tune is by Sodastream.
And the happy hardcore records sound even more fun with age. Brilliant stuff. Blimey, even Biffy Clyro did an acceptable Peel session back then.
I was only on ten when the download stopped. I refreshed to see what the crack was and it'd gone down to 0. Swines. Yesterday I was full of dreams of having a nice chunk of my hard drive heaving with peel action. Gutted.
Knew it would happen eventually. Fuck.
I hope someone managed to download them all and will zip/rar them.
guys, still working on the search
gonna get home and download all of these
It's been cached; all files available here; not sure how long for.fishwho this'd this
Ahhhhh, checked archive.org
but didn't think of Google cache. Had tried Soundcloud search, but I guess picking more than "Peel" & checking more than one page of results might have been an idea. That & spending more time on it than doing Work today.
is anyone else downloading these?
trying to get as many as i can at the mo
Yeah I've got the ones I didn't get yesterday queued up
but that's 300 odd of them. Will leave it going till I've got them all, the cache clears or my internet gets cut off :)
downloading a few more. Thanks for finding them again,.
10 singles in alphabetical order, skill testing questions, that special brand of canadian pop (rheostatics, smugglers, sloan, cub, zumpano etc) - I'm ready.
I had no problem this morning listening to the shows on my Iphone via Soundcloud
I listened to SFA session from around 2001
Started my day quite well
checking this morning
i've got around 270, will crack on when i finish work.
Hopefully I have them all by now
Was onto the final 40 when I left for work this morning.
I think they've now disappeared...
...nabbed a few more this morning but unable to get any more now. Managed to get about 70 of them before they disappeared. Good stuff!
Would the best idea be...
To gather up all d/l shows then upload them onto a torrent site?
I started downloading, got about 45
Can we zip them and upload them between us. We cant let these disappear!
not working for me. I would love them all but in particular I am after 2004/06/22 if anyone has that one? He read out my shoutout whilst we were having a BBQ at Glasto!
That link was given above
Sometime this morning the actual files it links to were cleared out of the cache.
I got that one, PM me & I can send it
Got most of them, but lot of weird discrepancies, for instance there appear to be 2 for 2003.12.11 & I only have one, so I've a horrible feeling one overwrote the other. I didn't get the mum, which admittedly didn't seem to have a download option, although sure I got another one that didn't have that. Also a bunch of the 90's ones I got yesterday came out zero length (last 2 from '90, all '91-'92, 1st 5 from '93). Got 424 altogether, probably can't spare the bandwidth to put them anywhere till next month though, it's 43+ GB altogether!
been too busy to download
over the last couple of days. Can anyone hook me up with a zip with a stack of them? Would be much appreciated.
good stuff poprivet
I'll pm you at some point to get a handful of them.
the torrent idea is also good.
Keep It Peel
Only managed a few. Would dearly love to get them all.
I've uploaded 2, 2 hour sets to zippyshare.
They were uploaded "privately" so should be invisible except to you lot. It's all I got but I'm happy to share. They are random sets but seeing as they feature Johns dulcet tones and his usual mix of genres I think they are pretty representative of his "style" that we all love :-
Hope you enjoy (Yes, I registered here just to share :)
Oh man
I managed to pick out a date that I'm pretty sure includes a Fall session and now I find they don't fucking work anymore.
One of those was one I was missing, thanks
Vian asked me for a couple, 2012.06.22 & 23, here's a link:
- littlebirds this'd this
Did anybody download 11.07.2002 or 18.07.2002
I didn;t have time to download these shows when I listened the other night and now they have been removed. The Google Cache site isn't working for me either.
I got excited there and then burst like a balloon
I found a 3 hour "Elastica" set
That I forgot I'd downloaded today http://peel.wikia.com/wiki/11_December_1993 Cracking show... If I can find somewhere to upload it (it's 220MB) I will
OK, I'm currently uploading 4.5GB worth of 2004 shows
to go with those on my link above. Will probably finish overnight, then I'll leave them up for a week, before doing the other half of 2004.
- littlebirds and Spicer this'd this
Left these to download at home today
Thanks very much!
Next lot up there now
Took longer than expected.
Remainder of 2004, plus start of 2003.
If anyone notices any from 2004, that they have, that I'm missing, would appreciate an upload.
Did anyone get 18/08/03
Or was it even available? Just doing a stock take of what I picked up and would love to have this one. Cracking session - including a blinding cover of Temptation - from Barcelona Pavilion that I still remember 9+years later.
Swapsies available, PM me if necessary.
Don't think that one was there
I got a list, but not sure if it's 100% accurate. Certainly don't have that one amongst those I got.
Ah well, looks like I'll have to live with the memories.
That was a cover of temptation by New Order by the way. Not Heaven 17, or even God Machine. but I'm sure they would have been equally memorable if covered.
Just started rest of 2003 & 1st half of 2002 uploading
Am going to be away for a while, so check back on Wed & it should have finished. Those will be up till I get back & I post here.
OK, I'm back
All but the last few of 2002 are up now, & will be there till some time on Monday.
That lot uploaded quicker than usual actually
Think the exercise is doing it good.
Final few from 2001, plus 1997 - 2000 there now
We're into pre-Listen Again territory now, so it's not almost every night now. Think I've got about 2 more upload batches to go then I'll be done.
You are
a hero.
All the remaining 90's ones, 90-96, there now
I know I'm missing a chunk of these, as I got 22 with a zero filesize from this period for some reason, so if you have any from 90-96 you don't see here *please* upload them somewhere, or it might be possible to use my Google Drive in some way after the next, final, batch next week.
Final batch
1960's - 80's. I'll leave them up till Xmas.

"Dancing With The Stars" quickly waltzed back in the silly season after Chaz Bono's ouster this week, with the feud between professional hoofer Maksim Chmerkovskiy and the judges generating publicity-friendly chatter.
But the kerfuffle hasn't overshadowed Bono's final bow. That's a sign of how far he traveled in a mere six weeks and how general public perception of him morphed from – at best, in some circles – a novelty act to a popular underdog.
Bono's elimination Tuesday generated disappointment among the many fans whose votes kept him from getting booted sooner – a far cry from the mixed reaction that greeted news in August he was joining the "DWTS." He may not have been show's greatest contestant, but he danced his way into hearts like no other.
Bono, it seems safe to say, spent more time on a highly rated primetime U.S. television show than any transgender person in history. Monday's "DWTS" installment drew more viewers than the World Series.
He proved himself a reasonably decent dancer, a likable guy with pride and passion, as evidenced by his reaction to his elimination (both he and mom Cher were miffed). He also showed himself to be a lot more than just another celebrity offspring trying to gain quick, cheap fame on a competition show.
Perhaps most importantly, Bono recognized that he's a role model – and not for his dancing.
"I came on to this show because I wanted to show America a different kind of man," he said Tuesday. "I know that if there was somebody like me on TV when I was growing up, my whole life would have been different."
Bono has spent much of his 42 years in the spotlight, beginning as a cute tot named Chastity who regularly appeared with her parents at the end of "The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour" as the ultimately star-crossed couple sang "I Got You Babe." His life-altering journey as an adult became tabloid fodder, largely thanks to his famous parentage.
But Bono transformed into his own man, letting the world get to know him as more than a gossip item, if only on a fluffy dancing show.
His final tango – and the Chmerkovskiy controversy – quickly will be forgotten. But Bono's larger impact on the popular culture and beyond will be remembered as steps that transcended the dance floor.
