Stuttgart – More than ever before, new petrol engines and an optimised powertrain make the 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class the standard for efficiency in its segment. With a combined fuel consumption of only 6.8-7.0 litres and 8.9 litres
* of premium petrol per 100 kilometres, the
E 350 BlueEFFICIENCY and E 500 BlueEFFICIENCY excel as the most economical models in their respective performance classes. Following the introduction of the new BlueDIRECT V6 and V8 models, all petrol and diesel engines in the E-Class now feature direct injection. The reduction in fuel consumption by up to 20 percent is also due to the standard ECO start/stop function and the improved 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic transmission, which is now also available for the four-cylinder variants
"E" for "Efficiency": this is the well-proven success formula with which the E-Class is again raising the bar, and showing how the intelligent interaction between technical innovations throughout the powertrain can reduce fuel consumption even further. For example, in the
E 350 BlueEFFICIENCY
a combination of third-generation BlueDIRECT injection, the new 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic transmission and the standard ECO start/stop function has led to a decrease in consumption by 20 percent compared to the preceding model, although peak output has increased by 10 kW/14 hp to
225 kW
(306 hp). This high-tech V6 petrol engine is happy with 6.8-7.0 litres of premium petrol per 100 kilometres in the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle), which corresponds to CO2 emissions of 159-164 g/km. The new E 350 BlueEFFICIENCY sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.3 seconds. Top speed is 250 km/h (electronically limited).
A comparable leap in efficiency is achieved by the new
E 500 BlueEFFICIENCY
. Despite a significantly smaller displacement (4633 cc, previously 5461 cc), the biturbo eight-cylinder with BlueDIRECT technology has gained in both output (
300 kW
/408 hp, previously
285 kW
/388 hp) and torque (600 Nm, previously 530 Nm). At the same time its fuel consumption has fallen by around 17 percent from 10.8 to 8.9 l/100 kilometres * (NEDC combined). This too is the top figure in this perfor mance class – and is accompanied by superior performance: the new E 500 BlueEFFICIENCY sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in only 5.2 seconds. Top speed is 250 km/h (electronically limited).
Lower fuel consumption: ECO start/stop function and 7G-TRONIC PLUS
This leap in efficiency for the BlueDIRECT engines is assisted by the standard ECO start/stop function, which is now included ex factory in the four-cylinder petrol and diesel models as well. Thanks to direct-start technology, the Mercedes-Benz system for petrol engines operates both immediately and quietly.
The automatic transmission exclusively available for the E-Class in future is
**. This comprehensively improved 7-speed automatic transmission is standard equipment in the E 250 BlueEFFICIENC Y, E 350 BlueEFFICIENCY and
E 500 BlueEFFICIENCY. The features of this latest evolutionary stage include a new torque converter with reduced slip, an ECO shift programme with an improved ratio spread and an auxiliary oil pump to maintain the operating pressure during automatic stops. Low-friction components and low-viscosity fluid help to reduce the operating pressure.
Major leap in efficiency: the four-cylinder diesel engines in the E-Class
Particularly in the four-cylinder variants of the E-Class, the ECO start/stop function and 7G-TRONIC PLUS make for a considerable increase in efficiency. The engine specialists have also optimised the oil pressure control and belt drive, and equipped the turbocharger with a self-regulating compressor.
Result: In the
E 220 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY
125 kW
/170 hp) and
E 250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY
150 kW
/204 hp)
the NEDC consumption CO2 emissions in combination with the 6-speed manual transmission are now only 5.0-5.3 l/100 km and 130-139 g/km. In the automatic version they have fallen by 16 percent to 4.9-5.3 l/100km and 129-138 g CO2/km*. This makes the E 250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY the most
efficient diesel model in its performance category
in the luxury class. Both the 6-speed manual and 7G-TRONIC variants of the
100 kW
(136 hp)
E 200 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY
entry-level diesel now have a combined NEDC fuel consumption of only 5.1-5.4 litres per 100 kilometres (134-141 g CO2/km).
Petrol engines at their finest: E 200 BlueEFFICIENCY and E 250 BlueEFFICIENCY
Updating the powertrain has also led to more fuel efficiency in the four-cylinder petrol engines. The
135 kW
(184 hp)
E 200 BlueEFFICIENCY
with 7G-TRONIC PLUS now has an NEDC consumption of only 6.5-6.9 litres of premium petrol per 100 kilometres (152-160 g CO2/km). The figures with the manual 6-speed transmission are 7.1-7.4 l/100 km (169-176 g CO2/km).
Exclusively equipped with the 7G-TRONIC PLUS transmission, the
E 250 BlueEFFICIENCY
150 kW
/204 hp) has a 13 percent lower NEDC fuel consumption than before at 6.6-7.0 l/100 km. CO2 emissions have fallen to 154-162 g/km. This means that the E 250 BlueEFFICIENCY is likewise
at the top of its class with respect to efficiency
Luxury class with bivalent natural gas drive: E 200 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY
The E 200 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY with bivalent natural gas drive rounds off the comprehensive update to the engine range for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The
120 kW
(163 hp) four-cylinder in the Saloon can be operated on both premium petrol and natural gas. In addition to the petrol tank, three natural gas tanks are safely accommodated in the
only bivalent natural gas model in the luxury class
– one behind the rear seat backrest and two under the boot floor.
They have a combined capacity of 121.5 litres of natural gas, corresponding to 19.5 kilograms. In natural gas operation, the combined NEDC consumption of the E 200 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY has fallen by 0.6 kilograms to 5.5 kilograms per 100 kilometres. This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 149 grams per kilometre. In petrol mode the combined consumption has been reduced to 8.1 l/100 km.

Gun control won't make gun violence go away
January 18, 2013 · Updated 12:29 PM
As a sixth-generation loyal American, I strongly urge you to immediately contact your legislators to oppose any legislation to ban so-called "assault weapons" and "large" ammunition magazines.
Firstly, all guns are inanimate. Their purpose is determined by the user. Since uniformed personnel are now being targeted by the lawless, they need the NRA-trained backup of voluntary citizens who may be on the scene.
Millions of Americans choose to own semi-automatic firearms (not fully automatic, which are illegal), with ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds for the same reason as law enforcement officers: they are effective for self-defense. A firearm that allows its lawful user to discharge multiple shots is often the difference between life and death. Numerous studies have shown that firearms are used for self-defense up to 2.5 million times annually, 3 to 5 times more often for self-defense than to commit a crime.
A previous ban on these inanimate objects was in effect from 1994-2004 and had no discernible effect on violent crime, according to a study of the ban mandated by Congress.
Women like me (age 90+ who has "seen it all") do not want Sen. Feinstein's bill. Guns are assault weapons only when in the hands of potential criminals. They are the best equalizer in the hands of an NRA-trained female attacked in a dark parking lot. They often bridge the time gap between the criminal attack and the arrival of uniformed police.
When an autocratic government has confiscated your gun(s) and made gun-free neighborhoods, criminals and big government alike will move in. This is the best reason to protect the Second Amendment.
Rather than expanding previous legislation that fails to curb violence, penalizes law-abiding gun owners and does not deter criminals, I urge you to support legislation to enhance school security and improve our nation's ailing mental health system.

The lovely funeral people called back for specifics (religious or non religious music) when the other daughter (I'll call her Linda) was home...and Linda asked grandmother if she was sure that's what she wanted. They were able to inform the lovely people that there was a 'misunderstanding'.
QuoteA little OT, but I have a great business idea ... wedding and funeral bouncers and enforcers!It's needed. I saw news footage of the funeral of a teenager who had been gunned dow. His dad and stepfather got into a fist-fight right smack in the middle of the church during the services. I'm sure there are many similar stories of the same happening at other funerals.

Outsiders often using the Amish name for marketing
Bud and Mary Anne Winovich, owners of Amish Accents, sell authentically made Amish furniture, though they are not Amish themselves.
A group of tourists walk along Old Philadelphia Pike in Intercourse, Pa. Tourists come to Lancaster County by the bus loads year round to see the Amish and to shop at the local craft stores around the county.
Share with others:
On Thursdays in Market Square, Joseph Zook peddles vegetables, breads and Mason jars full of jam from beneath the awning of a white tent. He has a thick beard, suspenders and square-cut blond hair that is just visible under the brim of his straw hat.
In and around Amish country, it's easy to find countless stores and websites advertising Amish quilts, Amish candy and Amish crafts. But though Mr. Zook is Amish, it would be impossible to tell from the name of his Evansburg farm, Maple Run, or his products, whose homemade labels make no mention of their maker's religion.
In fact, it's a good bet that if the word "Amish" appears on a store or a product, the Amish themselves didn't put it there. Experts and Amish alike say that the name, used as a marketing tool, is almost exclusively the domain of the non-Amish.
In the past few years, as the cultural presence of the Amish grows in mainstream America, the use of the word "Amish" in business names and marketing materials has become more common -- and more lucrative. Some non-Amish who use the name are selling Amish-made products, but others have connections that are tenuous at best and some have no ties whatsoever to the Amish community.
That fact, Mr. Zook said, "just don't seem right." And it could also be against the law.
David Weaver-Zercher, a professor at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg who studies the Amish, said the trend of using the name to market products reflects a larger cultural movement.
"In a difficult economy, people feel like the Amish have answers to things that are troubling us," he said.
The name has become increasingly associated with good quality, simplicity and sustainability, Mr. Weaver-Zercher said, all attributes that businesses are eager to communicate to customers. "There's a lot of things going on that make the Amish interesting and attractive, and that feed into the desire of creating an Amish brand."
There is also quite a bit of money to be made. In Lancaster, the nation's oldest Amish community, tourism brings in 11 million people and nearly $1.8 billion. Almost every hotel in the county, from the Olde Amish Inn to the Amish Country Travelodge, has tacked the word onto its name.
In 2010, Unker's, a homeopathic pain relief ointment company based in Worland, Wyo., was looking for a new name after it lost a trademark dispute. Founder Jerry Doerr chose to rechristen his product "Amish Origins," complete with a logo of a horse and buggy. Mr. Doerr's company has no direct connection to the Amish, but he claims the ointment was originally developed by an Amish man.
As a result of the name change, said Mr. Doerr, "We have almost gone viral. Our Internet orders have tripled since we started using the Amish name."
Heat Surge, a company based in North Canton, Ohio, picked up on the popularity of the Amish to market its space heaters. Ads that ran nationally in 2009 for the Roll-n-Glow "Amish fireplace" depicted craftsmen in suspenders who labored beneath the arched ceiling of a barn, electric heaters sitting on their rustic plank workbenches. Another ad showed a pair of heaters strapped on the back of a buggy driven by a couple in a straw hat and bonnet.
Heat Surge's ads originally claimed the heaters were "an Amish man's new miracle idea." Later, it adjusted the marketing to admit what most people had suspected all along: The heaters were made in China (the product of an "engineering genius from the China coast"). Wooden mantels were the only part of the Roll-n-Glow Amish fireplace that was made by the Amish -- in factories equipped with modern tools, not in barns, and delivered by truck, not buggies.
The company could not be reached for comment.
Heat Surge's publicity may have been questionable-- the Better Business Bureau gives the company an F rating, based in large part on its advertising -- but it was effective. Today, a search for "space heater" on Google will bring up a litany of products that borrow from the Roll-n-Glow's success: "Amish-style," "Amish-inspired" and even "Lancaster-style" heaters.
Compared to some businesses, however, the Roll-n-Glow is practically Old Order. At many stores that use the word "Amish," just a fraction of products sold are actually Amish-made. Some sell products that have no direct connections -- one Ohio owner compared the Amish in his company's name to "Keebler elves," the fictional cookie mascot.
According to Doug Wood, a partner at Reed Smith's New York office who specializes in law relating to advertising and media, companies marketing their products with the Amish name could have trouble under the federal Lanham Act, which prohibits false advertising. A case can be filed by an interested party if a consumer is given a misleading "net impression" of a product that, if they knew the truth, they would not purchase.
"If you want to buy a product because you think it's related to the Amish and it's not, the advertiser is misleading you," Mr. Wood said.
Businesses often try to circumvent these regulations, Mr. Wood said, by using more vague terms, such as "Amish country" or, in the case of space heaters, "Amish-inspired." Even that could be problematic, he said, given that the Amish faith rejects technology like the heater.
"You're also trading on the goodwill of a group whose values are opposite those of what you're trying to sell," Mr. Wood said.
Consumers are not the only ones who suffer from misleading advertising around the Amish name. Many businesses, while not Amish-owned, deal directly with local Amish communities and their products, and they also stand to lose out.
"It aggravates me when companies that do not have any connection to the Amish use that word," said Michael Gerber, the founder of Kidron, Ohio-based Gerber Poultry. The company's main product, Gerber's Amish Farm Chicken, is raised almost exclusively by Amish families. A competitor, Mr. Gerber said, also sells chicken using the word "Amish" but uses no Amish farmers.
"It's misleading, and it confuses customers," Mr. Gerber said.
"We have seen so many products being billed as Amish that aren't," said Sally Treadwell, the owner of Almost Amish, a store in Lancaster that exclusively sells Amish-made products. "It makes my stomach crawl."
Eighteen years ago, Ms. Treadwell was a tourist from Philadelphia when the hot air balloon she had been riding over Lancaster crashed in the field of an Amish man who was baling hay nearby. Eleven of the man's children came running from the farmhouse to make sure she was all right, and Ms. Treadwell said she immediately bonded with the family.
"I didn't care whether they were selling elephants," she said. "I knew I wanted to work with them."
Ms. Treadwell moved to Amish country with her husband to open Almost Amish, which offers certificates of authenticity with its Amish-made products. She is still friendly with the Amish man she met 18 years ago, even attending his children's weddings.
Erik Wesner, owner of the website amishamerica.com, points out that the use of the word "Amish" in business is not always exploitative. When used to market businesses like Ms. Treadwell's, it can boost sales in a way that benefits both Amish craftspeople and non-Amish business owners.
"If I had not used the name Amish in my business title, I can all but promise you that I would have failed in the first year," wrote Kathy Kuderer, owner of a store called The Amish Shop in Cashton, Wis., in a post on Mr. Wesner's website. "The ones who would have lost out the most are the 45 Amish families who had high hopes of selling their products and having a bit of extra income."
According to estimates, more than half of the Amish population relies on small businesses, rather than farming, to make a living. Since many are reluctant to deal directly with non-Amish customers, advertise themselves and use tools like the Internet, third-party sellers can be necessary.
Mary Anne Winovich, who owns Amish Accents in Monroeville, said she has largely been successful because of the relationship she has with the Ohio Amish community whose furniture she sells. She, too, has attended several Amish weddings. "They trust us," she said.
"The Amish are aware of how their products are being marketed and aware of the appeal," Mr. Wesner said. "They benefit from that."
Sometimes, they even participate in the marketing themselves.
Those ads for the Roll-n-Glow? According to the Better Business Bureau of Canton, Ohio, which investigated the advertisements, real Amish men and women starred in them, posing with the electric fireplaces and even staging handshakes on camera with the company's owner.
On a recent, hot July day in Market Square, Mr. Zook wore a long-sleeved green shirt beneath his suspenders. His daughter, Katie, sitting next to mounded loaves of Maple Run zucchini bread, had on a white bonnet and wore an apron over her dress.
Among the sellers in T-shirts and jeans, they cut a striking contrast, and customers gathering around the Maple Run stall, one of the most crowded in the square, clearly noticed.
"We don't have to use the word Amish," Katie Zook said. "People can see us."

NYU-Poly to Provide Promising Young Scholars with Classes, Labs, Mentors
NEW YORK, March 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Wanted: 20 current 10th and 11th grade high school students from New York City with a passion for engineering and science, to study this summer alongside leading faculty and graduate students in state-of-the-art laboratories at Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU-Poly).
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20091027/NY99197LOGO )
Funded by the Pinkerton Foundation, the competitive new summer program is dubbed Applied Research Innovations in Science and Engineering (ARISE). ARISE is part of a Science Research Mentoring Consortium coordinated by the American Museum of Natural History.
It will expose youngsters to areas such as mechanical and civil engineering; information systems and cyber security; materials science and robotics; protein engineering and molecular design, and bio-interfacial engineering and diagnostics.
"We'll be looking for young people who are passionate about science and engineering, and who are committed to make the most of this opportunity," said Ben Esner, director of the NYU-Poly Center for K-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Education. "ARISE is intended to be a transformative experience for students in New York City public schools with little or no access to high quality, advanced STEM education. In this program and others, NYU-Poly is pleased to be able to provide that access."
A thorough application process will require recommendations from teachers, transcripts, an essay submission and an interview. Special recruitment and selection efforts will target female students and students of color-demographic groups that often lack access to the challenging academic preparation needed to pursue higher education and careers in STEM.
"We are delighted to partner with NYU-Poly to launch its exciting new ARISE program," said Rick Smith, president of the Pinkerton Foundation. "ARISE will be a key member of the Science Research Mentoring Consortium being coordinated by the American Museum of Natural History and fits perfectly with Pinkerton's goal of providing rich scientific experiences to talented but disadvantaged young people in New York City." The Pinkerton Foundation is an organization dedicated to improving the lives of New York City's young people by helping them develop the skills, self-reliance and strong values necessary to live up to their full potential.
ARISE will accept 20 students in 2013 and 22 in the summer of 2014. The seven-week program will introduce students to engineering concepts and principles, instruct them on the scientific method, teach research practices and lab safety, and improve math skills. With individual graduate-student mentors, ASPIRE participants will spend the latter half of the program in placements where they will make practical contributions to their lab's research objectives.
ARISE joins a robust list of STEM initiatives for pre-college students at NYU-Poly, including the Central Brooklyn STEM Initiative (CBSI), Science of Smart Cities, Creativity in Engineering Science and Technology (CrEST), and the National Science Foundation-sponsored Cyber Security Awareness Week (CSAW) Day Camp for Young Women. "Our STEM programs not only teach the young people who participate, they also teach us how to do this work well and how to innovate," Esner said. "We're developing courses and curriculums that can be replicated all over the country."

The weather on this day must have been horrible because the crowd was 9,166 and the on-track handle was a mere $1.3 million. So the percentage increases were huge: 71 percent for attendance to 15,712 and 67 percent for on-track handle to $2,298,650.

Modern Fairies, Dwarves, Goblins, and Other Nasties: A Practical Guide by Miss Edythe McFate
BOOK NAME: Modern Fairies, Dwarves, Goblins, and Other Nasties: A Practical Guide by Miss Edythe McFate
AUTHOR: Lesley M. M. Blume
ILLUSTRATOR: David Foote
You may have heard about magical creatures in far, exotic and distant lands. Or maybe you believe they live even closer to home, scattered throughout the countryside. But did you know that magical creatures are even closer than that? According to Miss Edythe McFate, they don't just live in nature but in our homes, businesses, and cities. Miss McFate has followed mythical creatures for almost all her life and has extensive knowledge of these ancient beings. She was kind enough to write a guide for us with her new perspective.
This book provides an account of eight children and their completely true and terrifying encounters with fairies. Miss Edythe explains how to avoid these problems and how to recognize a fairy and whether they are good or bad. Miss Edythe has her reason for writing this guide in the first place. You see, she was one of the eight stories she tells in the book and since no one believed her, she had a need to show the rest of the world that fairies do exist. And she provides plenty of evidence to support it.
This is a really wonderful book filled with imagination. The reason I loved it so much is that it shows modern fairies in everyday life. The Spiderwick Chronicles were also about modern fairies, but they were located in the countryside far away from urban life. This book changes all that by documenting truly urban living fairies. I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys fantasy books and stories about fairies. It will provide you with a fresh perspective on fairies and everyday life. Perhaps you have one living near you!

The teenage fly-half, already being tipped for senior England honours after less than a season in the Premiership, proved his big-match temperament by landing four penalties in blustery conditions to secure a repeat of last year's final showdown.
Gloucester came close to snatching the win with a breakaway try from fly-half Nicky Robinson when Saracens were down to 14 men.
But Farrell, whose charged down drop-goal attempt led to Gloucester's try, stepped up to land the decisive kick three minutes from time.
Saracens will be bent on revenge when they return to Twickenham on May 28, having been beaten by a last-minute Dan Hipkiss try in the final 12 months ago.
Mark McCall's men booked their title shot by grinding out a 12th consecutive victory in a scrappy encounter but the scoreline was far closer than it should have been.
Saracens were in control for the majority of the game but missed five of their seven first-half kicks at goal, which could have put them out of Gloucester's reach.
Three different kickers each missed a penalty attempt and James Short had a try disallowed all inside the opening nine minutes of the game.
Richard Wigglesworth took the first shot at goal from halfway and pulled it wide before Alex Goode carved through the Gloucester midfield to send Short away.
The Saracens wing appeared to have dived over in the corner but television replays showed Freddie Burns's last-ditch cover tackle had just forced his foot into touch.
Referee Andrew Small brought play back for a Saracens penalty but Goode fluffed it embarrassingly, prompting cries of "eeyore" from the sizeable travelling Gloucester contingent.
Farrell was the third Saracens player to miss inside nine minutes, striking the post with another long-range effort before eventually kicking his team on to the board at the fourth time of asking.
Gloucester's possession had been limited but, as ever, they looked dangerous with the ball in hand.
James Simpson-Daniel's quick thinking sparked a promising first Cherry and Whites attack, which stumbled when Robinson spilled the ball.
Although advantage was being played it was a strong attacking platform wasted and, to make matters worse, Robinson then missed his first shot at goal.
But Saracens were in control, with Schalk Brits jinking his way deep into the Gloucester half where the Men In Black won a penalty at the breakdown.
Farrell made no mistake from in front of the posts but missed his second, and Saracens' fourth, penalty attempt of the afternoon earned by a strong scrum.
That prompted Farrell to go for touch with his next effort and Saracens drove their lineout forward dangerously, with Ernst Joubert darting for the posts.
Gloucester held him up and Scott Lawson pinched possession to relieve the pressure, though they survived again before the interval when Farrell hit the post for a second time.
The visitors finished the half strongly with a Robinson penalty but it could have been better still had the fly-half not butchered a golden chance.
Robinson's midfield break had Saracens stretched but his long pass intended for Charlie Sharples flew over the wing's head and into touch.
Farrell edged Saracens into a 9-3 lead almost straight from the kick-off. Both he and Robinson then missed further attempts as the wind continued to play havoc.
There was a great deal of huff and puff, plenty of heavy tackles but it was pedestrian. There was very little creativity on show, a situation that suited Saracens down to the ground.
Now and again, Gloucester threatened to open the game up. Robinson's break and offload set the Cherry and Whites in motion but the move was brought to a thundering halt by Hugh Vyvyan's tackle on Rory Lawson, which put the scrum-half out of the game.
Saracens were reduced to 14 men in the 63rd minute after captain Steve Borthwick was judged to have taken Alex Brown out in the air and sent to the sin-bin.
The controversial touch-judge call revved up Saracens, who suddenly injected some urgency into proceedings - before being stung.
Farrell's drop-goal attempt was charged down by Brown and Akapusi Qera before Gloucester broke away, with Burns and Simpson-Daniel sending Robinson away under the posts.
Robinson's conversion edged Gloucester into the lead but Saracens responded almost immediately, with Vyvyan winning a breakdown penalty and Farrell landing his fourth penalty to seal the victory.

Men's Regular Washed Original Oxford Shirt
Item # 416154-AL3
Comfortable twist on an Original.
- Thoroughly soft, garment-washed
- Original Oxford fabric
- Traditional Fit: the classic American cut, Compare fit options
- Casual sport-shirt details
- Buttondown collar
This has the fabric of an Original Oxford but the heart of a sport shirt. That's after a few subtle design changes and, primarily, garment washing. And we mean a prolonged, intense powerwash; more like a tumble over Niagara Falls than a spin through the rinse cycle. It gives the shirt softness through and through. We don't reduce the softness by ironing the shirt and we hope you don't either; leave it looking nonchalantly unpressed.
And the design changes: we gave it a generous sport-shirt fit, adjustable cuffs and a locker loop at the back box pleat. 100% cotton. Machine wash. Imported.

this is the video if that makes things easier
It is not always the amount of details that makes a good wallpaper. Sometimes, a simple yet unique idea (in this case to find a certain screenshot from an anime) can create a lovely wallpaper for Valentine's day. popiahime's "Pikachu's Valentine" is funny to look at (I totally love the bottle's design!), and it composes a sweet design for people's desktops. Even though I'm not a big fan of white backgrounds, this one fits really well to the composition and the rest of the colours.
quick question while i try this if you don't mind, your username, what inspired it?
my internet is slow as fluff so still waiting for my UP to load :p
helo, mmmm how i can explain this, well, I would like to learn to draw anime`s but just male anime, like cloud strife
Well i could help you with that: practicepracticepracticepracticepracticepracticepractice
you should be able to google for many tutorials to get you started at the very least
xD thank but i looking for any suggestion about some internet page whit pictures anime

More information on Casa das Rosas in São Paulo
Description: Casa das Rosas in São Paulo
Casa das Rosas (The House of the Roses) Haroldo de Campos - Poetry and Literature Space is a Cultural Center located at 37 Avenida Paulista, one of the last houses in the country's busiest boulevard. The dreamlike atmosphere of the old building and its garden, in contrast with modern urban structure translates the real meaning of the place: a refuge where all poetic expression finds its space. A territory where artistic freedom is embodied by soirées, readings, book launches, plays, exhibitions and anything else that promotes the spread of poetry and art in general.
The poetry finds a home of completely democratic space where it intends to discard prejudices and any negative paradigm about poetic art. It is also the country's first public space for the poetry when it was baptized as Haroldo de Campos Poetry and Literature Space in honor of the poet from São Paulo, who died in 2003.
The house mixes construction methods of different times, the so-called "eclectic style," with Art Deco influence also. Built in an area of 5,500 square meters, the house has 30 rooms in the French architectural style. Casa das Rosas adds elements of the Renaissance and Louis XV, which included standards and rigor of the Greco-Roman architecture, the so-called neo-classicism. The interior of the house is even more eclectic, it combines decorative English, especially in the applications of gypsum in the Adam style, Hepplewhite, Chippendale and Shareton in its 30 rooms, clearly divided into social area, and intimate service.
Casa das Rosas was declared public property by Condenphaat (Council of Defense of the Historical, Archaeological, Artistic and Tourism of the State of São Paulo), felled in 1985.

Evolution, the Enlightenment, and Worldviews
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
Made in the Image of God: Human Values and Genomics
Genes and physiology are seen as something different from "us" and "our mind," and they seem to be controlling us, so we can't even change our mind. Humans are presented as pawns of their biology, puppets dancing to the tune of their genetic masters.
Does Evolution Compromise Human Morality?
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
Southern Baptist Series: Evolution and the Problem of Evil
Were one to propose creation by means of theistic evolution, some of the presuppositions for these responses to the problem of evil no longer function. Therefore, advocating some form of theistic evolution poses problems for standard explanations of the problem of evil.
Why Strict Atheism Is Unscientific
Do you believe in God? If a cadre of outspoken, strong atheists wrote a litmus test for scientists, that might very well be question #1.
Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Can Science Ever Know Enough?
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
Science and the Bible: Theistic Evolution, Part 3
As I stressed in my column about the YEC view, creationism is ultimately about theodicy—it's not only about theodicy, to be sure, but the belief that animals must not have suffered and died before Adam and Eve committed the first sin is crucial to the "young" in Young Earth Creationism. To a significant degree, Theistic Evolution is also about theodicy.
Series: Divine Action in the World
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
Series: Southern Baptist Voices: Evolution and Death
This exchange brings together related essays on death in light of evolution and Scripture from Southern Baptist theologian Dr. John Laing. Laing argues that evolutionary theory requires death to play a central role in the creation of new life, but sees Scripture depicting death only "as an invader, disturber of peace, and a force of evil." A BioLogos response is given by Dr. Jeff Schloss.
The Questions Update: Did death occur before the Fall?
Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "Did death occur before the Fall?", revised by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma. This question provides an overview of the issue and points readers to more resources within and beyond the BioLogos website.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
Naming 'the God Particle'
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
What is Scientism?
Scientism is a rather strange word, but for reasons that we shall see, a useful one. Though this term has been coined rather recently, it is associated with many other "isms" with long and turbulent histories: materialism, naturalism, reductionism, empiricism, and positivism.
A Biologist's Perspective
In today's video, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
The Creation of Beauty
Physical death is a necessary and, perhaps, disconcerting element of the evolutionary process for many Christians. It is difficult to imagine a perfect and loving God designing such a universe where forces such as natural death and entropy operate.
Monopolizing Knowledge, Part 1: Science and Scientism
In his new book Monopolizing Knowledge, physicist Ian Hutchinson engages with the world-view he calls "scientism": "the belief that science, modeled on the natural sciences, is the only source of real knowledge".
Let's Not Surrender Science to the Secular World!
As much as I sympathize with Giberson and Stephens, I am concerned that one of their central assumptions—that there is a divide between 'secular knowledge' and Christian—essentially undermines their very pursuit of a middle ground where the two can be 'integrated'.
The Source of Human Value
In this video, physicist Ard Louis describes that our value and purpose do not come from whether or not we were created by an evolutionary mechanism. Evolution may tell us something about how we were created, but it is not the source of our worth.
Evolution: Is God Just Playing Dice?
With his standard panache, the late Harvard paleontologist Stephen J. Gould argued strenuously that evolution had no inherent directionality. We are mere accidents; a "tiny twig on an improbable branch of a contingent limb on a fortunate tree".

America's Northern Forest contains the largest tracts of intact hardwood forest left in the east. It is important to balance any clean energy development in this rich area with activities to protect the 26-million-acre stretch of land.
Deerfield Wind
Deerfield Wind is the first wind energy facility planned in a national forest, so it is important to get it right. This project is in an area proposed for designation as protected wilderness, called Lamb Brook. The area is an important habitat for many animals, including bears and bats.
Northern Pass
Northern Pass is a proposed transmission line that would bring Canadian hydropower into New England. The project would cut across lands in New Hampshire that have already been conserved.

Midnight Cowboy
LP (Item 385014) United Artists, 1969 — Condition: Used
A sublime soundtrack from John Barry – common, to be sure, but also a wonderfully-crafted set that goes way beyond the stereotypes of his work for the James Bond films! The record is probably best known for Nilsson's famous version of the Fred Neil tune "Everybody's Talkin" – which is great in itself – but it's Barry's own work on the title theme that we totally love. "Midnight Cowboy" is a darkly turning slowly pondering tune that will haunt us until the day we die – performed here on the original number with a sad-tinged harmonica that unites both the country of Joe Buck's roots and the sleaze of the love generation. The tune's great – and is matched here by the whimsy of "Florida Fantasy", and the Barry tracks "Fun City" and "Science Fiction". Another great number on the set is "Old Man Willow", a really tripped-out longer track from Elephant's Memory – swirling around in organ and hippie vocals, and oddly echoing the main Barry theme of the set at times!

I'm trying to use extrude_faces_along_normal.rb. My model is in meters. But when I try to extrude faces 16 meters, it does extrude exactly 16 inches. When I type in 16m instead of 16, nothing happens. I tried again after using a calculator to convert 16 meters to inches, typed in 630 but then the extrusion was much too long, didn't measure. (630 feet? 630 yards?)
Then I looked into this script, it looks extremely simple but I can't find where it decides wether to use inches, feet, yards, meters or whatever. I dived into "Programming Ruby", couldn't find the answer, searched the ruby forum... I'm lost.
BTW I do not know who wkai is, the writer of this ruby, but once I get it to work, it'll save me te manual extrusion of 19000 faces! Just in one project. I believe we, ruby downloaders, can't ever thank ruby writers enough for all the time they save us.

While Romney sought to distinguish himself from Obama on foreign policy, specific proposals he cited remained similar to what the administration is doing.
For example, he called for ending military operations in Afghanistan by the end of the 2014, the same date set by Obama and NATO, and warned of unspecified steps to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. Obama has said all options remain on the table for preventing an Iranian nuclear weapon.
In one distinction, Romney said Monday that under his leadership, "the United States and our friends and allies will prevent them from acquiring nuclear weapons capability," which differs from Obama's pledge to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
Nuclear capability refers to the process of being able to develop a nuclear weapon -- a lower threshold than Obama's reference -- and Romney's language matched that of his former business colleague, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on the issue.
Polls show Obama gets higher marks than Romney on foreign policy, and the former Massachusetts governor hurt his international credentials on a three-nation trip this summer that included a high-profile gaffe in which he questioned London's preparedness to host the Olympics.
Romney also angered Palestinian leaders with a reference to cultural differences as a reason for differing levels of prosperity between Israel and the Palestinian territories.
In addition, a secretly recorded video of a private campaign event in May showed Romney casting doubt on the possibility of reaching a two-state solution in the Middle East with independent Israeli and Palestinian states.
On Monday, Romney pledged to recommit his administration to seeking the two-state solution and blamed Obama for what he called a negotiation process that has "devolved into a series of heated disputes at the United Nations."
"In this old conflict, as in every challenge we face in the Middle East, only a new president will bring the chance to begin anew," Romney said.
"I know the president hopes for a safer, freer, and a more prosperous Middle East allied with the United States. I share this hope," he said."But hope is not a strategy."

Can Methamphetamine Or Ecstasy Use Explain The Brazen Acts Of 9/11? |
Jul 8 2012, 05:14 PM
Group: Student Forum Pilot Posts: 77 Joined: 6-July 12 Member No.: 6,923 |
[Author' note: This essay got over 2,500 views in another forum and stirred up a good amount of controversy. I feel that it is far more important that you view my earlier posts under the thread entitled, "Joseph Solari, a Now-Deceased Bronx Goodfella (9/11 Connection??)" in the "Alternate Theories" forum on this website. Thank you.]
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it. - John Lennon "It is psychopaths who rule the world" - Jon Ronson, author of "The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry." In a failed attempt to re-invoke an old webpage of the Drug Enforcement Agency wherein a meth user testified that meth made her "totally amoral," a google search on "meth" and "amoral" turned up the following cached webpage (apparently geared to homosexuals, but of pertinence here): http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/sear...=clnk&gl=us (Note: the cached version of this webpage may vary to some degree from the current, actual version.) In Life or Meth (the above link), the author defines psychopath as "someone with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal or amoral behavior devoid of empathy... " and in a "total lack of conscience." He goes on to say that psychopaths have "extreme thirst for power" and for "top-level careers in government..." and that psychopaths "frequently share the same psychopathic traits as serial killers, being callous...arrogant... " He also notes that psychopaths have no qualms when it comes to war and casualties. Combine these thoughts with the quotes of Jon Ronson and John Lennon above, and it doesn't paint a pretty picture, now, does it? (Case in point: LBJ and the assassination of JFK, the U.S.S. Liberty incident, and the casualties in the War in Vietnam, acknowledged by LBJ to be unwinnable.) People have attested to the fact that methamphetamine makes them totally self-centered to the point of being totally amoral. ("Meth makes you self-centered, and I didnt care about anything else It was all about what I needed, which was usually more meth. I was numb to anyone elses feelings. My empathy and compassion were gone," from http://www.nilesstar.com/2011/12/12/dowagi...ttle-with-meth/ .) Such people have also attested to the fact that methamphetamine gives them a feeling of energy and of being able to "do it all" and "have it all." (See from ABC News: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=126022&page=1 wherein Sheigla Murphy, director of the Center for Substance Abuse Studies, says that methamphetamine "is the drug du jour for some super moms who are trying to have it all... When they begin to use methamphetamine, they feel more energy, they feel more mastery, they feel like they can get it all done," ) Take those effects of methamphetamine and combine them with the already amoral, ambitious personality profile of a psychopath and the results are unfathomable! A time bomb of the worst kind! Now, consider ecstasy (methylenedioxymethamphetamine or "MDMA") which some believe to be a more benign form of methamphetamine. In http://www.drugs.1emallway.com/depression/...asy-history.htm , the author states that ecstasy" breaks down the walls of communication by aleviating feelings of guilt, remorse, and fear." So, imagine a psychopath, who already is overly ambitious and potentially dangerous, and have him take ecstasy which removes feelings of guilt and remorse. Why, I'd say that there would be no telling what he would do, up to and including the nuclear demolition of extremely tall office towers and the launching of a Soviet-made missile into a prominent government building... or maybe he would just douse an old lady with gasoline and set her afire in an enclosed space like an elevator. Someone in a certain Internet discussion forum, supposedly in the know, stated that all your prominent politicians get through their days by "running to the shelter of their mothers' little helper," if you get my drift. Having mentioned "politicians" and having originally been a native New Yorker, I can't help but have Rudy Giuliani come to mind. Did you know that his original career objective was to become a Catholic priest? Hmmm, I wonder... did he have designs on becoming the Pope? [----This was the end of the original post----] What follows was a reply of mine to clarify my position due to a lot of misinterpretations of the original post. Ok, Im getting the distinct impression that many of you are just reading the subject heading of my original post, jumping to conclusions, and choosing to totally misinterpret what I was getting at in the original post. Picture this Let's say that you are an international crime kingpin and a mad scientist comes to you with the following proposal: "I have devices that can reduce one of the world's largest office complexes to microscopic dust by demolecularization in a matter of seconds before a worldwide audience of 7,000,000,000 people without anyone suspecting a thing. Are you in?" What would be your reaction? Would you say, "Great! I'm in!" or would you more likely say, "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR f%&$#@'n MIND???" Now, consider what your response would be if you were on methamphetamine (or ecstasy) knowing what mind altering substances can do to a person. Picture this Let's say you, in turn, take the proposal to your buddies in government. Would you expect them to say, "Great! We're in!" or would you more likely expect them to say, "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR f%&$#@'n MIND???" Think what their response would be if they were on meth or ecstasy. BTW, I think that the people in D.C. government got more than what they originally bargained for in New York City, because elements in New York City piggybacked their own plot on to the original one. See "Pre-9/11 Pertinent Information + New Analysis" [in the Conspiracy Theories category of unsolvedmysteries.com, approximately item #14 down the list of posts. N.B. This post includes mention of a clandestine drug lab.] Paul Michael This post has been edited by paulmichael: Jul 8 2012, 05:16 PM |

Considering that the only difference between meth and ecstasy is one molecule or 2 from the chemical perspective, the pharmacology effects are almost exactly opposite.
Ecstasy and LSD both have provided therapeutic success in laboratory controlled experiments. That said, I think you have offered an interesting but not compelling hypothetical, but you have failed to establish any sort of cause & effect relationship between meth use and the planning and executing of the events of 11 September. |

you ponder what you have done, in cold, lonesome regret. surely, this is the worst mistake of your life. you stare, frightened by the capacity of evil that lies within your silly hands.
what a fucking waste of time

Open floor with doorknob
put forest ring through doorknob hole
put in doorknob
open door
you bend down and pick up the DOORKNOB. nothing happens.
the ring doesn't want to fit. but its not that its just too big, its almost like the ring is being completely denied.
upon further investigation, you notice that the keyhole isn't actually a hole, but rather just black paint. echted inside the paint you make out the words "THIS GOES ON TOP"

The Goodstuff is always behind the spoiler...
Its always changeing really!
you turn the DOORKNOB upside down. the door changes its target to LOCK B. the door continues to function normally and opens.
HUZZAH! instead of being taken to the void room, you enter the hallway! that puzzle now seems so obvious you wonder why ever had trouble with it.

go down the hall
The Goodstuff is always behind the spoiler...
Its always changeing really!
you go down the hallway. there is a door to your left that goes to bathroom, beside the door is a small table with a POTTED PLANT on it, with PAINTING hanging above it from the wall. at the end of the hallway is the door to the kitchen. there is a rug, but it has the same texture as the carpet, so after your parents placed it there you never found it again. oh well, its unimportant.
