L'Appareil A Sous EP
7-inch (Item 566708) Universal (France), 1963 — Condition: New Copy
Early 60s work from Brigitte Bardot – a great set that really shows her coming into her own as a singer! In years previous, Bardot was often used just as a talk/sing artist – trying to capture on wax what she did on the screen in films. But here, she really steps out nicely in a set of tunes with backings by Claude Bolling – including the excellent "L'Appareil A Sous", penned by Serge Gainsbourg! Other cuts include "La Madrague", "El Cuchipe", and "Les Amis De La Musique". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Movie Mondays: "They Die By Dawn"
Starring: Michael K. Williams, Erykah Badu, Rosario Dawson, Giancarlo Esposito, Isaiah Washington
Genre: Spaghetti western, of the black cowboy variety
I can't lie, I've sincerely been excited for Tarantino's "Django Unchained" for a little while now. And I fully intend to see it before we make it to 2013. But a set of black Western gifs (including one of Ms. Badu) piqued my interest last week. After some sleuthing—nope, I'm kidding, it was just a Google search of "Erykah Badu" + "black cowboy"—I came across the trailer for "They Die By Dawn," a new film written and directed by musician and media-man Jeymes Samuel. The film centers on four cowboys (Williams, Washington, with Nate Parker and Jesse Williams) "in a town with no rules," playing a dangerous game for a potential huge payoff.
How's it look to you? If you're into it, who are you most looking forward to seeing on screen?

PC, Planetside2.com
Technically, Planetside 2 isn't out yet (the full game launches November 20). So technically, this isn't a review. But I'm having so much fun playing it, I couldn't keep it to myself any longer.
The original Planetside was the first (and still only) MMOFPS. Battles raged, waged over entire continents, with hundreds of players locked in epic sci-fi skirmishes. It was glorious.
Then Sony ruined it. If the beta is any indication, this is one serious mea culpa.
Planetside 2 plays like any other first person shooter. There are different classes, with different roles, weapons, and abilities. In a way, it's a lot like Battlefield 3, in that there's lots of players, vehicles, and wide open maps.
Except, "wide open" takes on a whole new meaning with Planetside 2. I estimate that if you were to run from one corner of one of the continents to the other corner, it would take you hours. For that matter, I bet if you chose to drive from one corner to the other, it would still take you over an hour.
There are three main teams, Terran Republic, New Conglomerate, and the Vanu Sovereignty. There isn't much difference between the RT and NC, but the VS have more of an alien tilt to their tech.
It's all largely a land grab. You want control over as much of the map as possible. Across the landscape are bases of varying size that you need a significant force to capture and hold. Because there are so many players, it's often easy to go with herd, smashing down lesser forces, or throwing yourselves repeatedly against larger ones.
It's incredible fun, with large-scale battles the likes of which are impossible in any other game.
Beta and Access
Currently the game is in beta form, which means things are changing all the time. This is actually rather fantastic, as you get to see how much the designers want to make the most balanced and fun game possible. This is a far cry from the beta of, say, Star Wars: The Old Republic, of which Bioware basically said outright, "here, try the game, but if you don't like anything, we don't care."
Planetside 2 is a fully functioning game at the moment, though, and remarkably stable. It's also gorgeous. Stand on a hilltop, and see for miles. Gigantic domed bases taller than skyscrapers. The screenshots linked above are all in-game, only lightly touched by Photoshop.
The scale of it all is incredible. Though that also leads to my one complaint so far: if you get left behind from a large group, you're going to feel very, very lonely. It will also take forever to get to where the action is. In its defense, Planetside was the same way, and the "Instant Action" button on the map can drop you onto the action once every 30 minutes.
You can sign up for the beta, and perhaps get in for free. Or you can buy the "Alpha Squad" pack ($40) which gives you instant beta access now and a bunch of benefits after the game goes live (later this year).
As an added bonus to joining the beta, you get to read the forum posts by RadarX. These are seriously funny. Some highlights:
"The Flash now has a certification for the NFI-2000 Turbo which will temporarily increase its speed. We know you are going to try it because it has the word Turbo in it. Don't worry about the fact you effectively have a small afterburner beneath your crotch. We've tested this thing successfully at least twice, and sometimes the driver didn't even die."
"SCU and Shield Generators should once again be repairable in all situations. We've narrowed down the issue and determined you were doing it wrong. Righty-tighty this time."
"The Pitcher Certification is now available, meaning you can throw grenades even faster. Maintenance has requested you stop practicing with rocks in the spawn rooms. This is why we can't have nice things."
"Controversial techniques now allow an Infiltrator to adjust their Cloak to provide more protection against damage. Certification in this skill is being required after the initial test subjects were brutally electrocuted. Whole lab still smells like bacon and regret."
"A new alloy whose properties allow it to absorb more damage has been approved for use on all tanks. This will increase every tank's overall resistance to damage. Do not taunt the 'new alloy.'"
"Facility Capture times have been changed. They increase based on the amount of influence and size. And before you say it, we verified with all sources and can confirm that is not what she said."
For future reference, that's how you do community relations.
When it does go live, P2 is going to be free to play. Something I'm unsure about, but as it seems 100% playable without having to buy anything, it might work. Knowing that the more players the better for this type of game, F2P might be the best option after all.

Google Custom Search: Where Does Their Code Go?
Hello Forum!
Hey guys I'm trying to incorporate Google's Custom Search with my site. Google provides me with a piece of code and tells me to add it to my site, but I'm not sure where to add it. Do I add it to my header.php file, or do I actually have to add it to all the pages of my site? Also--and this is important, too--is there a specific place in the file(s) I have to add it?
I will appreciate any help you guys can shoot my way. Thanks.You just add it wherever you want it to be on your website. Just like you'd add a footer div to the bottom of your html document, you add the google custom search wherever you'd like that to appear.Hello!
Thanks a lot for this insight Bob. I should have mentioned this before, but I already have a search form in my current theme. Will adding the Google code, say, in the header, get rid of the current search form? I guess I should also mention that I'm no WordPress wizard, so I'm always a bit confused as to how to accomplish these seemingly simple tasks.
Also, I noticed that Google's Custom Search form says "Custom Search" in the form. Can I get rid of this? Again, I'm thankful for any help.Good question, I would like to know if removing the "Google custom search" text is possible to removeHi Henry,
using the 'Google Custom Search Plugin' (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-custom-search-for-wordpress/) would automatically replace the default search form on your WP-Page. Maybe its an option for you?!
As for the 'Google custom search' text: Google loads an background-image into the input-field. I suppose you could get rid of it through your stylesheet:input.gsc-input {
background-image: none !important;
Or add an image of your own to change the text. :)
Best regards
ArminThanks Armin, I appreciate it!Thanks a lot! Does the GCS plugin do the same thing/work the same exact way?Sorry to keep nagging you guys about this but the plugin is not working the way I'd expect. I downloaded the plugin, and under the "Google Search" settings I have two fields that I'm to fill up with code:
1) "Paste code for CSE Search Box
2) "Paste Code for CSE Search Results."
However, from my Google Custom Search account I've been able to locate only one piece of code, which contains a div, some script, and some styles. I pasted this code into the first field, but the plugin did NOT automatically replace my WP search widget. Actually if you don't mind check out my site: LearnWriter.com and try searching for "MLA template" and you'll see what's happening.
Please, please, please let me know what I should do. Thanks in advance.Lol, I can see what's going on.
The code you have gotten from google is from the Google Custom Search. You need to apply for an Adsense account and get the Google custom search from there. That will give you 2 pieces of code.
I don't know why it works this way or if there is a way around it.Thanks a lot jamy_za. I have an Adsense account. I'll look for those 2 codes and see if that solves the problem. Thanks again, man.Okay I got the two AdSense codes and pasted them where they belong, but there's still a very serious problem with my site's search (plz take a look: LearnWriter.com).
I have a clue as to what the problem could be. When setting up AdSense, I had to include a URL to the page I wanted my search results to open in. I wasn't sure what page to include so I simply pasted the URL of the page I normally get search results in. I think this is what screwed things up, but I can't say for sure. What URL am I supposed to include if I want search result pages to open within my site? Am I supposed to create a specific page myself? I have zero clue how this works, so again, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Anyone? I will give the person who helps resolve this issue for me $15 (via Pay Pal). It's probably a very easy solution, but I just can't figure it out. And you won't just be helping me, you'll be helping out anyone else who has this issue. Thanks folks.First, create a copy of the page.php file and rename it t 'page-search-results.php'. Open page-search-results.php and replace the commented area just after<?php
with the following comment:/**
Template Name: Search Results
Now you have a special search-results page template that you can customize.
Now create a page in wordpress called 'Search Results'—before you click 'create', make sure you change the page template to 'Search Results'.
Once that is done, create an adsense account (if you haven't already) and create a Google Custom Search. It will ask you a few questions, like what is the url of the page it will be displayed on, etc. Once this is all done, it will give you two snippets of code. The one snippet is the search box itself—that goes in the header, or sidebar, etc. The second snippet goes on page-search-results.php.
Once you click search, everything should work.Okay dude thanks a lot. I'm going to do exactly what you said and get back to you. I already have an adsense account, but I didn't know what page URL to assign for search results. I'm wondering if the 2nd code needs to go in a particular place in the "page-search-results.php" file. Oh well, I'll figure it out and get back to you ASAP. Thanks again man.I think you want me to add the "Template name: Search Results" part BEFORE the first "<?php" in the page right? At the very top of the page?<br />
**Actually I think even the "Template name: Search Results" part has to be contained within a <?php ?> thing right?Yeah, everything is contained within a <?php ?>Hey man sorry for being annoying, but where EXACTLY does the first snippet of code go? I'm looking in the header & index page for a place to put it but I'm not sure where. Are you sure it doesn't go in searchform.php?index.php, header.php, loop.php, sidebar.php, footer.php and searchform.php can all be part of the home page. So if you put something within searchform.php, it will be on the page as much as something you put within sidebar.php.
What you need to do is make sure it works before you worry about where to place it. You could put the first snippet right after <body>, just to test if it worksOk, I definitely made some progress. I'm trying to stick the Google Search bar into the navigation bar with no luck, but that's a problem for later. The search results are indeed showing up in the "page-search-results" page, and they're showing up sort of how I want them to show up. I'm slowly understanding how this thing is supposed to work now that I've played around with it about 20 times. Thanks a lot for your help man. I would have never guessed any of this on my own.
Can you email me your paypal user name, or ID (however it works)?It's my pleasure. If you need any more help, just ask :p
I haven't been helping you because I wanted any money :p I could just see that you needed it.Ah man that's freaking awesome dude. You've been such a big help. I can't thank you enough. This site and its members have been great. I'm sure I can use your help for a few other things in the future, and in those cases let me give you some cheddar.

DENVER (AP) — The men in stripes have drawn so much attention this season that some interesting developments on the football field have gone largely unnoticed, like a big spike in field goal accuracy.
NFL teams combined for a record 2,287 points in the first three weeks of the season thanks to a record 248 touchdowns.
Kickers have done their part in this proliferation of points, converting 182 field goal attempts and missing just 15 for a 92.4 percent clip — the best three-week start ever.
The three-week mark tends to be a precursor for the entire season, with the final accuracy rate dipping two or three percentage points as the weather gets worse and the pressure rises.
That means the record set in 2008 of 84.5 percent could be obliterated this season.
The league-wide field goal percentage last season was 82.9 percent, second-highest all-time. Through three weeks last season, the number was 85.8 percent, according to STATS LLC.
If this year's figure drops a similar 2.9 percentage points, it would end up at 89.5 percent, an enormous jump, statistically speaking.
Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater, the most accurate kicker in league history from 50 yards and out, said he thinks this year's spike is the culmination of several factors ranging from better athletes to improved coaching and superior training.
"Guys are just getting better and better," Prater said. "You get guys who are veterans in there and they learn from their mistakes and don't want to repeat them."
Yet, it's not just the icy veined veterans who are nailing their kicks. Continued...
Kickers coming out of college are having immediate success, too, much like the better-prepared rookie quarterbacks who no longer have to bide their time as backups.
Heading into this weekend's slate beginning with Thursday night's Cleveland-Baltimore game, the Ravens' Justin Tucker, St. Louis' Greg Zuerlein and Minnesota's Blair Walsh were a combined 22-for-22 with each rookie having kicked at least a 55-yarder.
Tucker and Walsh have game-winners already. Tucker's beat New England 31-30 last weekend as time expired and Walsh's came in overtime against Jacksonville after he kicked a 55-yarder as time expired in regulation.
"There's more camps for kids coming up the ranks now," Prater said. "You can get a good head start on it."
During their high school years, both Walsh and Tucker attended kicking camps in California run by Chris Sailer, who kicked for UCLA in the 1990s.
Kickers are also in the weight room more, employ specialized training and superior techniques, kick on more favorable surfaces, generally are better coached and are used more effectively and efficiently on game day.
They benefit from better athleticism than their predecessors, come almost exclusively from soccer backgrounds, are aided by an increased emphasis on special teams and rule changes, and even by playing some of their games indoors.
It all adds up to greater accuracy.
"Coaches are starting to let more opportunities happen, which will increase the percentage," Walsh said. "I just think guys are really starting to perfect what they do, and you're seeing a lot more great kickers today than you probably did in the past. You'd have a handful of great kickers and the rest would be pretty good, but not elite, but I think there's a ton of elite kickers in the NFL right now."
The success rate has risen steadily from all distances, short and long, during the Super Bowl era. In 1967, for instance, barely 51 percent of all field goal attempts were good. Now, nine in 10 are splitting the uprights, which were moved to the back of the end zone in 1974. Continued...
Back then, kickers were often converted linemen who happened to have strong legs. Now, every kicker in the NFL played soccer as a kid and all employ the soccer-style kick that has improved place-kickers' accuracy over the decades.
Hall of Fame kicker Lou "The Toe" Groza made 54.9 percent of his field goal attempts, a percentage that would get him run off the roster today, not enshrined in Canton, Ohio.
Kickers aren't just more accurate, but with such parity in the league, they're more important than ever.
Through Week 3, 28 games were decided by one score, tied with 1988 for the most such games through the first three weeks. Last weekend, seven games were decided in the final minute of regulation or overtime, something that's happened just once before, in 1995. Five of those came down to a field goal.
Among the seven game-winning field goals so far was Tucker's 27-yarder as time expired that gave the Ravens the victory over the New England Patriots last weekend in a rematch of the AFC championship game. In that title game, Billy Cundiff missed a 32-yard field goal in the closing seconds. In the encore, Tucker — who took the job away from Cundiff in training camp — drove his kick just inside the right upright.
"Bottom line is it went in," Tucker said. "That's all I care about. It went in."
Patriots coach Bill Belichick wasn't so sure and he was fined $50,000 this week for grabbing a replacement official's arm after the game as he tried to see if the call was reviewable. It wasn't.
Tucker, who beat out Cundiff with a perfect preseason, attributes his success to lessons he received from head coach John Harbaugh, special teams coach Jerry Rosburg and kicking consultant Randy Brown.
"I feel like I'm kicking the best I ever kicked," Tucker said. "Took a little work, took a couple of days, and now I feel like I'm striking the ball as confidently as I ever have."
He's not the only one who feels that way. Continued...
Prater's three field goals against Houston last week moved him past Jason Elam as the most accurate kicker in team history at 81 percent, and his 53-yarder made him 13 for 17 from 50 yards and out for a 76.5 percent clip, the best in league history with a minimum of 10 attempts.
Ryan Succop's club-record sixth field goal gave Kansas City a 27-24 win in overtime at New Orleans last weekend. He was a perfect 6 for 6 on kicks ranging from 25 to 45 yards.
Zuerlein, a sixth-round pick out of tiny Missouri Western, is 8 for 8 on field goals, including a 56-yarder last week, one yard shy of the Rams franchise record.
What impresses his coaches is his steely resolve that belies his inexperience.
"I guess I'm just confident in my abilities," Zuerlein said. "I expect to make the kick, so I don't get nervous really."
Rams special teams coach John Fassel said he's never worked with a kicker this talented so early in his career: "You see him in the mall, he looks like any other 24-year-old walking around," Fassel said. "But his leg speed is incredible."
Zuerlein said years spent playing soccer probably account for his explosive leg power, not anything he does in the weight room.
"I can't squat a house or anything like that," Zuerlein said. "It's probably about the same amount of weight just an average person might lift."
So far this season, there's been nothing ordinary about NFL kickers.

Current Exhibitions
Insights into Architecture
05/25/13 – 10/06/13 - Marks Graphics Center And Jorgensen Gallery
Palm Springs Art Museum
This exhibition is inspired by Ezra Stoller (1915-2004), a student of both architecture and industrial design, who began his career as a photographer in the late 1930s. His 1939 World's Fair, Finnish Pavilion, Queens, New York, designed by Alvar Aalto, launched his career and his recognition as an acute observer of space and form. His photographs of work by architects Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen, Louis Kahn, and Marcel Breuer demonstrate his finely tuned sensitivity to light and shadow, translucency and solid form. Each of Stoller's photographs is a study of the architect's expression of modern architecture, as crisp as the buildings themselves.
Out of the Fire: Mesoamerican and Pueblo Ceramics
04/12/13 – 04/19/14
Palm Springs Art Museum
Out of the Fire features a selection of ceramics from the museum?s permanent collection and loans from the private collection of Jan and Mark Hilbert. The works represents more than 2000 years of ceramic tradition from ancient Mesoamerican to the Pueblo Indians of the North American Southwest. Made for a variety of purposes from utilitarian to sacred practices, ceramics is one of the most enduring artistic traditions of the Americas. Modeled by hand from pliable clay material and transformed by fire into hardened vessels or figures, these objects represent a long history that expresses both cultural identity and values individual creativity.
Rauschenberg at Gemini
03/16/13 – 07/28/13 - Annenberg Wing
Palm Springs Art Museum
From 1967 through 2001, Robert Rauschenberg produced more than 250 different prints at Gemini G.E.L. Rauschenberg transformed what a print multiple was, not only in scale, but in how variable one print in a single edition could be from another; in how many physical dimensions it could have; in how many media a single multiple could involve; and in how the viewer could interact with the multiple and make it different. No other artist has pushed the boundaries of printmaking as much as Rauschenberg.
Roger Ballen Photography
03/16/13 – 07/28/13 - New Media Gallery
Palm Springs Art Museum
Originally born and raised in New York City, Roger Ballen has lived in South Africa since receiving his Ph.D. in Mineral Economics in 1981. Initially his work as a geologist took him to the country's rural communities. Fascinated by the uncertain and precarious conditions he found, he began photographing people in small towns at the margins of society. Ballen documented these residents through a series of unsettling portraits that reveal the human condition even as his subjects exhibit idiosyncratic manners and habits.
Contemporary Glass 2012 / 2013
11/17/12 – 11/03/13 - Denney Western American Art Wing
Palm Springs Art Museum
This exhibition brings together noted national and international artists who demonstrate the range and diversity of glass techniques and styles. Glass has special aesthetic properties that make it an ideal material that can be shaped in countless ways, combined with other materials, and made into sculptures or installations. Light reveals the optical richness of color in glass while emphasizing the volumetric sensuousness of form.

Dreams of World Travel
February 19, 2012, 12:40:18 pm »
The list of places you feel the need to go to some day, that you haven't been to. I admit I am somewhat spoiled when it comes to travel, my family has taken me many amazing places on no expense to me over the first two decades of my life, but here's (part of) my list.
Largely for religious and historical reasons. I feel it would be an amazing, potentially life-changing experience, to visit the great religious sites, and to walk the same streets as... well you get the idea.
Prague, Vienna, Budapest, and Central Europe in general-
This part of the world (the Czech Republic and Slovakia in particular) is my ancestral homeland, and yet I know so little about it. I have also been told that Prague is a very beautiful city.
I have heard much of the natural beauty of this state, and I would like to come see it for myself before it melts away.

imagine trekking through egypt in steampunk gear...... it would be like an image from the past.
but seriously, Egypt's History is amazing. Really great, i might have to wait till all the bombings and riots are over though...
i love Paris, i've been twice and its amazing, everything is just so old, classy and beautiful!

i'd love to go and catch the trans-siberian express across Russia, that would be Awesome!

My list of Places to Visit is HUGE, but here are some excerpts:
-watch the sun rise in Macchu Picchu
-watch the Aurora Borealis in Lapland
-The entirety of the United Kingdom and Ireland
In my only 22 years of existence, I`ve not seen all that much yet, hence the huge list. I`ve so far only been to Germany, France, Denmark, London (and Stonehenge, and I`ve seen the cliffs of Dover), and through half of Japan.
Sometimes I vlog:

CaptainMurra, Archaeology is more the thing if you want to specialise in Egypt. A BA in Archaeology will set you well on the road, and if you do a really, really good Honours year you may be able to squeak past an MA altogether and go straight for the PhD!

Its more a case of where to re-visit, mostly for underground exploration:
Peru, Tunisia, France, Australia, to name but 4 countries I'd go back to!
Canada interests me, but I'll pass on the United States (sorry my colonial friends), North Africa in general, the Middle East (avoiding those jumped up monied gulf states), Papua New Guinea is quite near the top of the list, as is Northern Scandinavia, and Mother Russia.
The more remote, away from "typical touristicas" the better in general reely!

My list of places to visit is also quite large; because I've not done a great deal of traveling yet.
So far I've only been to England (21 years so far!), Wales (every childhood summer), Scotland, France, Spain and Germany.
The top place on my list is Ireland because that is where my the parts of my family that aren't Welsh are from. I am going to Dublin this year with my Mum and really looking forward to it. But I'd still like to go to Clonmel where my dad's family are from, and visit the Giant's Causeway at some point.
After that the next must see place on my list is Rome because I'm an archaeologist and just generally a history and art lover. Hoping to go with my boyfriend at some point, because he'll be as happy as me to visit museums and is strangely tolerant of the fact I have to visit cemeteries wherever I go (You know you're lucky when after only 2 months, on your first holiday together you spend a week doing research in Pere Lachaise, frequently in the rain and he still loves you. You know he's the one when your planning a holiday for HIS birthday and he says 'Are there any graveyards you want to visit?').
After that the list gets a bit fuzzy in order and basically expands to cover Europe. All of it, especially the old bits. I want to take a year out of real life at some point and travel around Europe. Maybe if I make it as an academic, I'll be able to call this a sabbatical or even 'research' =P All I know is at some point it'll include a trip to somewhere far North enough to see the Aurora and a trip to Istanbul to see Hagia Sophia before the next earthquake (I know it's been surviving them for centuries but with my luck it'll collapse the day before I visit).
I really want to visit Egypt, because of my life long obsession with all things Ancient Egyptian but I am now resigned to the fact that it may be a long time before I can.
I also want to visit Japan, America, Canada and many other places but this post is already turning into an essay!
TL;DR version:
Suffice to say I want to see as much of the planet as I can before I die because human cultures and the natural world are fascinating.

Sydney Uni, i'm starting this year. I probably should've gone to Maquarie, but i was talking to an archaeologist who has a PHD (can't remember what though) who lives near me and he was like "sydney, because it has the reputation. just go to syduni."
and considering i couldn't make the ATAR/UAI points for AHistory Honours at MQ, i just went for syd.
its only an arts course, though, so depending on what i do next will depend where i go.
i was actually considering going to UNE, funny that

Unfortunately, the only way to go to most of that arc these days is in company with other armed chaps, not as I'd prefer, as a solo adventure...
In hindsight, I might be some kind of geopolitical jinx.

I lived in England for thirty years but only ever made two trips to mainland Europe; one to Amsterdam which was beautiful and fascinating, and one to Norway, which was also beautiful and fascinating but in a different way. Went as far north as the Lofoten Islands though, north of the Arctic Circle. The Trondheim to Bodo line must be one of the few places on the planet where you can cross the Arctic Circle by train.
Since moving to Canada I've travelled to most of the provinces and all the territories, including a winter on a drilling rig at North Buckingham Island, north from Hudson's Bay and about 500km. from the geographic North Pole. Total, 24-hour darkness for the first three months.... I've also been to both coasts of the U.S. and to Arizona, including a train trip to the Grand Canyon. I'd seen all the films and photographs, but nothing quite prepares you for the real thing..... Recently I've been spending a lot of time in Mexico; mostly on the West Coast but also a couple of trips to Yucatan. Oh yes, and a trip to Belgium (family stuff), which included Eurostar from Brussels to London via the Channel Tunnel, thus clipping across a small corner of France.
Where I'd like to go next includes most of the rest of Europe, especially Switzerland and Spain, and perhaps New Zealand, but neither Asia, Africa nor South America do anything for me; but most of the places I'd like to go, don't exist, unfortunately. Lyonesse, Tir n'a nOg, Atlantis, Hy Brasil, the Isle of Sodor......

If the government offered us a referendum, on whether we remained in the EU, or withdrew from the EU, how would you vote?
If the government offered us a referendum, on whether we remained in the EU, or withdrew from the EU, how would you vote?
Pregnant Maria De Jesus suffered an agonising death
How did our NHS get this bad?
I don't have a UK vote .. but I'm voting anyway ...... Leave the EU !!!
The results of the poll will be of no shock to anyone, which is why we are denied a referendum.
It is not racist to be concerned about immigration.
I think it is very difficult.
As I said to Matron on another thread, the electorate have a hankering for the saying, "Hold on to Nurse, for fear of something worse". They just won't vote for the unknown unless things get much worse and are viewed specifically as being down to our EU membership.
According to a yougov poll, only 23-29% support an exit from EU membership so I regret the majority of the electorate are very likely to vote to stay in the EU if given a referendum vote.
"When YouGov have asked people directly about Britain's relationship with Europe they've found around 10% of people who support a more integrated Europe, 13-17% happy with the status quo, 33-40% supporting a less integrated Europe with more powers returned to the UK, 23-29% in support of total withdrawal from the EU."
Mmmm, I guess we choose to ignore the polls we do not agree with and embrace the ones we do.
The trend as you will see is against the EU, and not just from the UK. I appreciate there is a lot of info here which is why I stopped where I did, theres a lot more enjoy...
ComRes opinion poll for The Independent on Sunday, Dec 11
If EU leaders agree a new treaty to tackle the Euro crisis Britain should hold a referendum on it: Agree: 58%; Disagree: 15%; Don't know: 26%
Two thirds of Conservative voters agree (68%), compared to half of Labour (50%) and Lib Dem voters (47%). There is a trend by age, with older people more likely than younger people to agree – 70% of people aged 65 and over agree, compared to 44% of people aged 18-24.
The Euro crisis provides an ideal opportunity for Britain to leave the EU altogether: Agree: 52%; Disagree: 26%; Don't know: 22%
Conservative voters (58%) are more likely than Labour (45%) or Lib Dem voters (48%) to agree.
ICM/Guardian poll 21-23 October 2011 – 70% Want a Referendum; 49% would Pull Out
70% of voters want a vote on Britain's EU membership; just 23% are against.
49% would vote to get Britain out of Europe; just 40% prefer to stay in.
There is a clear majority for staging a referendum in all social classes and regions of the UK. Men and women are similarly keen, although rather more Conservative (71%) than Labour voters (65%) are calling for a poll.
56% of Tory voters would vote to leave, against 34% who would prefer to stay in. By contrast among Labour and Liberal Democrats, there are majorities for staying in Europe, although there are also sizeable minorities among both parties' supporters – 38% and 44% respectively – who would vote to get out.
28% of the youngest voters aged 18-24 would vote to quit the EU; 63% of those aged 65 and over would do the same.
The Eurosceptic side of public opinion is firmer than the Euro-enthusiast element. The 40% who would vote to stay in split between 23% who would definitely vote to stay in and 18% who say they would only probably do so. Among the 49% who want to leave, by contrast, 34% describe their position as "definite", against 15% who would "probably" vote to leave.
The 49%-40% split for pulling out of the EU represents a turnaround in public opinion on a decade ago. When ICM asked a slightly differently worded question in May 2001, by 68% to 19% the public indicated Britain should remain a member, a 49% lead for the pro-Europeans. The most Eurosceptic segment of opinion has grown rapidly: where 34% of all respondents now say they would "definitely" vote for pulling out, in 2001 just 13% said they were "strongly" in favour of pulling out.

74% of Tory members think Cameron missed opportunity to repatriate powers and cut EU budget
By Tim Montgomerie, Conservative Home
1,447 Tory members took part in a ConservativeHome poll from after Friday's EU summit until lunchtime yesterday.
The results - reported in the Daily Mail - suggest that members do not agree with David Cameron's claim that he got a good deal for Britain.

More significantly, on a forced choice question, 74% think the Prime Minister should have used Angela Merkel's request for a Treaty amendment as an opportunity to get some powers repatriated to Britain. 26% agreed that accepting the Treaty amendment was in Britain's interest. Mrs Merkel is being portrayed as Europe's new "Iron Lady" because of her negotiating triumph.
Asked if they wanted to leave the EU, 49% of members said they did. Of those wanting to stay in (totalling 51%);
•5% said "we should stay in the EU but leave the relationship as it is";
•42% said "we should stay in the EU but aim to get powers back";
•4% agreed "we should be more enthusiastic EU members".

Lisbon Treaty: 82% want referendum in UK, even if all other countries ratify
From: Open Europe Newsletter
A new Populus poll for the Times has found overwhelming support for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, even in a situation where it has already been ratified by Ireland and the rest of the EU. 82% of people agreed with the statement, "If Ireland and other countries ratify the Lisbon Treaty on the future of the European Union, Britain should hold its own referendum on the issue", with 52% strongly agreeing and only 14% disagreeing. 92% of Conservative voters, 76% of Labour voters and 85% of Liberal Democrats voters agreed that Britain should have a referendum on the Treaty. (Times, 13 May)

In response to the question, "If the Lisbon Treaty goes through and the new post of President of the EU is established, the job should go to Tony Blair", only 34% of people agreed, and 63% disagreed. 51% felt that Britain benefits from its membership of the EU.

When asked if the British people should decide in a referendum before Britain transfers any further power to the European Union 84% agreed, with 13% against.
Daily Telegraph/YouGov survey, 26 Feb 09
Top issue for an incoming Conservative Government to deal with is immigration. The second issue is reducing the power of the EU. This is a significant change, as in recent years the EU has not been considered a major policy priority, probably because no-one thinks we can do anything about it. Perhaps now we can.
YouGov Survey for the Taxpayers' Alliance and Global Vision, 11 Jan 09
Relationship with the EU: 16% withdraw, 48% looser relationship, 22% stay as is.
Joining the Euro: 64% against, 24% for.
It is not racist to be concerned about immigration.
Some people may. I don't. I support exit from the EU but I can't ignore a respected polling organisation like Yougov. 29% supporting exit is too far away from 51% for it to be a polling error.
I know there are conspiracy theorists that believe the reason we didn't get a referendum is because Cameron "knew" the electorate would vote to exit, but that doesn't stand up to serious scrutiny.
DC said the reason was because it would be a distraction from dealing with the economy. I think it was much more to do with the fact that it would have reopened the divisions in the tory party and ensured the tories lost out at the next election. On top of that, the Lib Dems would have voted it down as there isn't majority support for a referendum in the HOC.
So tory divisions reopened, the government fighting amongst itself and the referendum result very likely to be "no change". Hardly a strong reason for DC to back holding a referendum.

I'd vote to leave. I think the relationship with the EU would still be close, but it would be good for British people to feel they were more in control of their country.

Well, that was a little panic moment! Good thing I grabbed the Ning Status RSS Feed earlier! :)
Glad to see you're getting the issue resolved Ning, I seem to be back up and running.
Smoothly, I may add.
Good job! You were on it fast! :)
One thing to note, I had a spam bot as a new member when I got access to my network back.
Perhaps another wave of these stupid spam bots attempted again? I notice they come in waves. Will likely see a few more sign up tonight and tomorrow now that I've got this one. (I know the "Spam" issue is covered many times here, but regardless of what you want to call it, written scripts are over riding your written scripts, allowing nothing but wires and circuits join our "secure" networks.
Just saying, I bet a lot of your problems are coming from one persons computer, some hacker who has figured out how to bypass your systems, and make money online providing backlinks. I'm not a computer/internet/seo/coding expert, but over the time this has been happening, and the hundred or more fake members I've deleted, I've noticed patterns, and been paying very close attention to the other's posts. Seems you have a real problem on your hands here, and so does Google. How many networks is Ning hosting? 24 000 or something like that? It's a gold mine for link backs, especially when not all of your network owners are deleting or banning them, allowing them through to increase their numbers. This is an infection, a virus if you will. We are the symptoms of the disease, calling your name, you are the immune system, we so desperately depend on. This recent outage proves that. What are all my members that were online thinking when Addictapic suddenly disappeared? All those hours uploading photos, sorting into albums, writing descriptions and linking to all the other networks out there?
Eric, I know you're gonna jump in on this, and say something generic, I don't blame you, you're probably sick of hearing about the damn spam... well we're sick of dealing with it. Ning (As The Company/business) whoever they may be, should take heed to this spam, the method these intruding scripts are using, the reasons they're doing it, and ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING. Giving us the most recent "ip banning" tool, only gives those who don't know what the hell they're doing the opportunity to make a mistake and ban everyone in the world, sitting there wondering why nobody is joining their networks. I won't ban any IP, these bots are smarter than that, one look at the email address they're using, and anyone with common sense knows this is a repeating, computerized, systematic process with an intention, directed DIRECTLY at Ning networks.
So Ning, I've read that a recent merge with GlamSocial has changed things within your ranks, etc. Things have been going down hill, in my opinion and observation. Perhaps it's time to get your S*** together?
Maybe I'm a babbling idiot, but I am very observant, very pursuant and inquisitive, I know how to research and have done things by choice, such as teach myself quantum physics. I know a major issue when I see one, and this issue everyone so quickly calls "spam" is more like a plague that is obviously uncontrolled. How long before the robots poor in by the hundreds, every day, because the businesses using these backlinks start making actual money, and others start doing it too?
That's my two cents, you got it because I've been frustrated with these intrusions for quite a while, and just now, that's the first time my network has gone down, and my LIFE LITERALLY REVOLVES AROUND MY NETWORK. I have just been panicking for like 2 or 3 straight hours, maybe more, maybe less, I don't know, but it's time I spoke my mind.
There, I feel better.
Glad the sites are back up and running.
It wasn't fast enough. This isn't the type of issue we see very often (hardly ever), so our apologies for this downtime. We're going to be looking closely at this to make sure we know the exact cause. I can understand any frustration you've had about this.
Sorry, edited my message. Yes, I was very frustrated, but now it works. Perhaps I may not be wrong by saying above, look into that "spam" issue, I had new fake profiles as soon as I got access back, which means they signed up during the outage.
"Person" is online, yet not showing in the chat bar.
Not a real person.
For what I've read, enabling the pay wall feature "paid access" is the only way to block these "bots."
If that's the case, you should provide this service free, and not an extra $20/month.
SOMETHING needs to be done.
Another thing, I use Feedjit.com, a website visitor tracker. It gives an audible "ding" every time some one lands on my website. It works very well.
I've never heard it go off when these bots sign up, and I'm sitting right here watching them sign up.
These bots are signing up WITHOUT EVEN VISITING MY NETWORK.
I can't even express how F'N SICK OF THIS I AM!!
I called it, I said it would happen, I wake up to three more stupid bots, for a total of 6 since your little "emergency maintance."
I think YOU GOT HACKED and won't admit it.
You have a real problem on your hands and won't admit it...
I like how there's NO REPLY on this thread.
Must be a bunch of mumbo jumbo.
9am, I love waking up ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED EVERY DAY!
yeah, awesome, check it out, they even OVERRIDE MY LAYOUT SCRIPTS, AND CHANGE SH#T
It's really, really fun when you put every waking minute you have into a dream, just to wake up to find your dream is tainted by a plague you can do nothing about. You call out for help, but nobody listens, nobody cares, they just wanna get rich.
It's embarrassing trying to explain to my members, that yes, Addictapic is getting Hacked by spammers, but no, don't worry, your personal info is safe, my website won't implant a virus into your windows OS and steal your life, don't worry about it, just upload a photo, it's gonna be ok.
I've basically figured this out just by paying attention. NING, Seriously, WHAT'S THE TRUTH?
Ugh, I see this is gonna be a NICE DAY. Pffft.
I'll try that, but the thing is, that's like taking cough syrup for a cough. You're treating the symptoms, not the disease.
These bots change scripts, just have a look at the last photo I uploaded above. The captcha, profile questions, blah blah blah, it's all useless.
A simple question is not keeping these things out, they are manipulating the very coding NING runs on. Nothing in our little "customer" power is going to stop these bots, unless you put up a paywall, like has been said before here on creators. Bots don't pay, and they don't donate. They don't proceed when hitting a paywall.
I shouldn't have to pay an extra $20 per month to stop spam. This is a NING issue, and they know it.
I don't want a code or wall or some other restriction my members have to deal with, I want Ning to realize they have a MAJOR issue, and THEY are the only ones who can TRULY FIX THE PROBLEM.
I read somewhere that it was because of iphones, and the fact that you couldn't upload a profile pic while creating a new profile on ning networks, so they made a "Back door" for iphone users.
Guess what Ning, iOS changed all that, you no longer need your back door, close it, the bots are getting in.
How about some SECURITY, and maybe, just maybe, a LITTLE PEACE OF MIND.
Hey, man. I responded to you as soon as you posted. No one got hacked. We had an unplanned outage. Please don't read more into it than is there.

Lance Armstrong is to be interviewed by Oprah Winfrey on an episode of "Oprah's Next Chapter" scheduled to air on Jan. 17. (Steve Ruark, Charles Sykes / Associated Press) |
Lance Armstrong has granted an interview to Oprah Winfrey, his first since being stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and banned from cycling in the wake of a report detailing accusations of use of performance enhancing drugs by the athlete.
Described on Winfrey's website as a "no-holds-barred interview," the piece will feature Armstrong from his home in Austin, Texas, and is scheduled to air on the Oprah Winfrey Network show "Oprah's Next Chapter" on Jan. 17 at 9 p.m. EST/PST, as well as live at Oprah.com.
"Armstrong will address the alleged doping scandal, years of accusations of cheating, and charges of lying about the use of performance-enhancing drugs throughout his storied cycling career," the website said.
This could be nothing new. Armstrong has strongly denied such allegations for years. However, a New York Times report Friday cited anonymous sources saying that the cyclist is considering confessing to the use of performance enhancers.
Armstrong lawyer Tim Herman told the Associated Press he had no knowledge of Armstrong considering a confession, saying that "when, and if, Lance has something to say, there won't be any secret about it."

Thank you!
Ah Unoa heads and faces are much smaller than standard MSDs like the ones from Volks. Generally next to other MSDs they can look pin headed. Their head circumference is 16.5cm (6.5inches) vs 18.5 (7.3inches) MnF head (older sculpts) or volks which are almost 8 inches around. I know all this because I'm trying to figure out some sculpts to fit my 6 androids. Two or three will be unoa sculpts, with one MnF Kyle and one Dollmore Judith. That's what I've figured out so far but it might change in the future if they Unoa's don't look right with the others or vice versa.

I just finished plotting these 2009 bow Draw Force Curves for all to evaluate.
When reading the results pay careful attention to the Draw Length (on the bottom of the graph) and observe how soon the bow is at or near maximum force, and then again when the curve starts down into the Valley to minimum draw force.
Also look at the advertised draw length and the MEASURED draw length. Many manufactures (not all) extend the draw length to help post higher IBO speeds. A very common practice these days. If a different bow feels that is draws long, it probably is.
Compare the draw force curves to each other, example, look at a Mathews Drenlin LD and a PSE X Force. You will see the curves are radically different, the Drenlin will be very easy and pleasant to draw but a lot slower. The X Force is a lot harder to draw, but a lot faster.
Speed is not free, we provide the energy, it just depends on what qualities are more important to you.
Also a comment on what some archers perceive as a Bump at the end of a bows draw. I have not tested even one bow with a bump at the end of its draw force curve. That perception comes from a draw force curve that starts up very quickly, holds that force and then very rapidly lets off into the valley.
No bump, but a large and quick change in holding force. Its not a bump just a very aggressive bow. High speed has its price and the archer pays for it while drawing the bow.
I hope to compile some 2009 nock travel results soon and will put it out for all to see.
Questions or constructive comments are welcome.
Have fun

Somehow I think they will loose this one."Microsoft uses whatever tactics it takes to win at all costs."
HEAVEN doesn't want me ... and HELL is afraid I'll take over!
Registered Linux User # 401252 ... Registered Insane Linux User # 001
yep... I kinda think so too
I know the Software world is highly competitive. But I think Microsoft has it Backwards this time.
Instead of making their efforts in disproving a widely know success AKA Linux. Why dont they just make a version of the software that ports their applications to Linux? LOL that wont happen then ever version will be able to use it.
What Microsoft could be spend such monies on is Making Xp,W2k and their other products "Virus Proof", "Hack Proof", "Crash Proof" Ect..
If they waste their marketing efforts on ways to denounce Linux. They will reallize much too late that Linux will own 50% or even more of the marketshare before its too late.
:dir: Hey Jack Asses Be productive, not Counter Productive.
DUmb asses!
As crafty and slick as Microsoft is, this would backfire on them. If they really do implement an anti-Linux campaign, subtle or overt, it will serve as only so much free publicity for Linux.
Linux is not a large, static target like Netscape, Sun, or IBM (OS/2). Linux development could be compared to a guerilla force -- loose knit, but organized cells mostly hidden.
And with that said, I love WinXP!:dir:
The last coupla paragraphs sums it all up, IMO, Microsux have leaked the memo (if indeed there was officially such a memo) to appease shareholders.
Money rules. Billy boy knows that. Shareholders getting restless, initiate PR programme letting shareholders know their interests are being looked after. That is, 'clobber Linux'. Fact is, they can't clobber Linux, it's there, it works, and it ain't gonna go away.
Just money man talk, is all.
Truth is, Microsux are probably working on a user friendly GUI for Linux, one that's easy to use. They'll proclaim it as 'open-source' and then they'll claim to be the saviours of free software. Whilst letting you know all you're paying for is the CD's and manual.
And the sad thing is it'll probably work. You can't beat a multi-million publicity campaign when it comes to Joe Public.
Recently in the UK, on the TV, a consumer watchdog programme raised the issue of WIN XP being non compatible for upgrades to lots of peeps. A spokesman for Microsux appeared on the programme. This suited smarmy over-qualified salesman carefully avoided all the real issues and constantly bleated, parrot-like 'XP is a cool piece of software and our research shows people love it'.
He just wouldn't address the issue and skirted around it. OK, XP is pretty damned good, as are most MS OS's, but put a Corporate rep in a sticky position, you ain't gonna get no truth.
My dream? To see a penguin or two swimming in Bill Gates' swimming pool
i found out recently, much to my dismay, that win xp doesn't properly support smb shares, basically making it incompatible with any samba based fileserver.... especially weird since 2k loved them.
microsoft have got a fix available, but you cant get it without contacting them.., or waiting until xp-sp1 is released.
....another attempt by microsoft to oust the sleeping giant ??
....inquiring minds want to know....
I don't know about that Flops. Bill is a big thinker. He wants his fingers in every pie, and when he can he wants every pie in his belly. Look at suX-Box, there was no need, and barely any room for a new competitor in the console market, yet here comes the 4-colored checkered flag waving in the breeze. I think you're theory is very sound, but I really wouldn't put anything past Billy Boy. And as you say, You can't beat a multi-million publicity campaign when it comes to Joe Public. , you are absolutely right. That's why it's up to people like us to inform Joe Public. We shall see indeed.
I don't quite buy that, Flops. The majority of private Microsoft shareholders don't even know what Linux is, just as the majority of Windows users don't know. The only way I could see an intentional leak would be to influence institutional investors -- mutual fund managers and such.The last coupla paragraphs sums it all up, IMO, Microsux have leaked the memo (if indeed there was officially such a memo) to appease shareholders.
To quote you again, Floppy:
That could actually be brilliant for MS as well as a boon for Linux. I, for one, would be very, very interested in an MS Linux. My concern though, would be that MS would somehow find a way to 'embrace and destroy', bastardizing Linux. Considering the worldwide grass roots Linux movement, I don't think Bill could slow it down.Truth is, Microsux are probably working on a user friendly GUI for Linux, one that's easy to use.
I've really considered giving Linux a shot, but I just don't have time for another hobby right now. If I can't install it within a couple days, and use it for everything from email, to Office, to intensive 3D gaming, I'm just not gonna cotton up to it.
Microsoft Linux -- hmm - intrigue and anxiety all in the same characterization.
That's ok Leo, I'll take up the project and see where it takes me and then let you know
What do mean when you say, "I'll take up the project and see where it takes me and then let you know". It's late, and I'm dense right now. I don't understand what you mean by "project".
You said you don't have time for another "hobby" So I was joking saying I'll take up the "hobby" (project) for you.
(was digging around for a bit) things like this make things a lil interesting
BB: An interesting link. Fact is though, that if the US wanted to hack Linux, they probably could. I expect the technology exists for it right now. Probably developed by some spotty 16-year-old from Taiwan, bought and silenced by the CIA. Maybe.
I would guess a significant proportion of MS shareholders are aware of Linux. I'll agree that the majority aren't. They just study the share prices' history and invest. But for those who are aware, the leaked memo could calm their fears.
MS and Linux distro? Hmmm, goes against the grain a bit but I must admit I been messing about with Linux on and off about 18 months now and still haven't got my head round it. It's not easy, IMO. I have made some progress, but to learn it without taking a recognised course is actually very time-consuming.
What I like about it though is the little bits I've learnt, once I've mastered it, it works well. No second chance in Linux though, not even with the most easy to use version, Mandrake, you make a choice to do something, hit 'Enter' Linux will carry it out, for good or for bad.
MS and Linux? I dunno, the two ideas don't gel but it could actually in a roundabout way be an interesting project.
And to repeat: IMO, learning Linux is very time consuming. And very frustrating. But oh, the joy when you get something right
I definately agree. Just thought it was an interesting article.
that is true, without a manual in front of me i have already had a long string of emails about my sparc redhat, on what commands to boot it up, to shut it down, and since i don't know where anything is or how it works, i am trying not to be a bull in a china shop when i use it, so far the extent of what i can do is turn it on shut it off, use netscape and the games, my eventual goal is to drop the gui and run a server off of it, i'm sure it will take some time, but oh well, it felt like acomplishment to learn the command to shut it off, lurch
