An Cafe's ANCAFESTA '12 SUMMER DIVE: Day 2
The Summer Dive continued with another ambitious turnout at Kokuritsu Yoyogi Kyogijo (National Yoyogi Gymnasium) on September 9. This time, the band popped up directly in front of the show's title banner walking around the stadium from behind the stage, up through the crowd and finally taking their positions.
The very first number announced their intentions for the second day, contrasting the insatiable pop-rock of the previous with a burst of heavy rock, yells and a boom of firework kicking off "Maple Gunman." miku heaved the stand over his head on a declaration of his rock-star persona while the crowd pointed gun-shaped fingers at the stage. teruki crashed full-bore from start to finish, cymbals ringing frantically. "Snow Scene" lightened the atmosphere only a touch but enough for yu-ki to dance away energetically behind his keyboard though teruki headbanged to the chorus.
Smoke jets led into a deep red lighting scheme soon punctuated by flashes of green for "KAWAYU'S ЯOCK." miku aggressively grabbed kanon from behind, bringing the mic up to the bassists lips though the vocalist himself made up for the previous day's lighter atmosphere with some powerful growls. "Who came yesterday?" he asked, a huge cheer giving away that more attended the two days than not. "Once more I want to thank you all for waiting. Today is Harajuku Dakkan (Recapture of Harajuku)!" That earned an even prouder cheer. "Hey, you, lolita over there," miku began, picking out a girl from the arena. "If you went out in that, it'd be embarrassing, right? But if it's Harajuku, it's ok, right? We need your strength!" he cried to the combined masses. "Let's make it so people say Harajuku equals An Cafe! Got it?"
The crowd were overjoyed to hear "Tekesuta Kousen" for the second time in two days, the melody hot and guitar leading the other instruments on a wild chase through the instrumentals. "Hey, you! Jump! … That's good," miku approved, singling out more fans. "Escapism" began with a clap rhythm, teruki striking his sticks overhead to test the pace. A tough guitar line gave the piece a mature atmosphere though miku tore it down, limbs flailing about in an odd dance that better suited the poppy chorus of the somewhat bi-polar song. Meanwhile, the simple summer havoc guitar theme of "Merry Making" certainly inspired sufficient jumping to suit miku's shouted order. He bounced off down the catwalk, setting the rest of the band in motion to visit all areas of the stage including the walk up behind keyboard and drums where the back portion of the crowd greeted them enthusiastically. "Nanairo Crayon de Egaku Hikari (Portraying Light With Rainbow Colored Crayon)"'s almost ballad-style opening was met with a handful of colorful rays reaching out from the stage, light wands raising all over the stadium to wave to the music while miku crooned. For takuya's solo, the beams gathered into a cross right on top of the guitarist. Slow and moody, the solo sped up into an up-beat bridge, bringing the song home.
"There's something I wanted to ask you," miku began, addressing the crowd in a break. "How many new people are there?" A few fervent cries resounded. "ah, not many. How about fans from before?" A roar shook the venue. "And guys? Oh, could we call you Cafe-O?" The O for otoko (male) was well received. Enthusiastic masculine shouts were mixed with feminine laughter. "I wanna hear you guys do 'Nyappy!'" miku insisted, inciting a deep rendition of the traditional motto.
"It might even be possible to do a guys-only live," teruki mused.
"Let's do CYBER! (Ikebukuro CYBER – a small but popular visual kei oriented venue)" miku cried, enthusiastically latching onto the idea.
"Isn't there somewhere in Ni-chome?" teruki wondered, referring to the "alternative lifestyle" district in Shinjuku.
"You'd have to ask yu-ki that," miku replied.
Next on the list of fans to name were the over-25 ladies. "Cafe-ba!" miku shouted with a grin before apologizing for his bad humor.
Finally, he requested all of the girls to give him a dark and dirty "Nyappy" which was even more shocking that the 'Cafe-O' version.
"I wouldn't want to date that," miku confessed and the crowd laughed at themselves as much as at him.
"Natsu no Owari" began with a nostalgic air, starry wands glowing throughout stands and arena. It came to a sweet end with acoustic guitar and ringing keyboard notes. It was a touching moment which gave way to a repeat performance of the short play introduced the previous day. (Read the details here.) Once again, the band took their turns to sing "shou shuu riki!" culminating in a performance by the combined crowd who this time cleared the requirements on the second try.
"NATSU KOI ★ NATSU GAME" revved the show back into full swing though yu-ki remained down on the main stage dancing the complicated choreography with the crowd. He and miku both hurtled down the runway for the next song "NYAPPY in the world 4", punching out the end and then rapping together as they circled each other warily. High energy and speedy, the exciting number was let down only by yu-ki's repeated failure at jumping on the right beat no matter how many re-tries the band gave him—and that was how it ended.
"yu-ki rocks," miku said with a laugh. "He's so cute. This is yu-ki Time." Though soon enough it became "Nagata Time" and teruki announced that he would do an impression of someone he doesn't resemble at all. The result was his "Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi Collaboration" consisting of teruki singing in an impression of Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi singing An Cafe's "Amazing Blue." The drummer jokingly borrowed takuya's guitar though his attempts to strum went badly. After teruki poured his soul into the impression and earned complimentary cheers, miku forced the crowd to practice laughing along with An Cafe—who proved disturbingly adept at wild, forced laughter. "This is the Antic Cafe I wanted so much to come back to?" teruki lamented. miku actually fell over with laughter. "If we go on hiatus again, don't complaint on me about it," teruki sulked. The crowd offered him up a range of shouts from "You're cute!" to "We loved it!"
It was time for "Duck no Magical Adventure," miku breaking out his very best Donald Duck impression (much clearer than the previous days' attempt) and singing through his hand puppet of the beloved Disney character like a somewhat unsuccessful ventriloquist. His question to the crowd this time, was "Who do you think is the member most likely to be kind to women?" Though the majority of the shouts seemed to say "teruki," miku announced that roughly 98% of the venue judged the kindest to be yu-ki. "yu-ki's mails are very kind! He has very good mailing technique, giving advice like 'No, u have to wait! This isn't the right timing for that email!' What do you think of teruki? Personally, I think he's useless. teruki's just an old man so he doesn't understand young people."
"But you're the closest to me in age!" teruki retorted. The final revelation came from the drummer about kanon. "He's very vain. He once told me about a picture he took, 'Don't worry about your wrinkles. I'll delete them!'"
The song flared up again, Donald going wild, words unintelligible. He was cast aside before the next song.
"Ok everyone, raise your lights! We'll make a blue sea. Now, clap!" Blue lazers fanned out to add further credence to the title "Amazing Blue" in which the crowd joined their voices to the bands in a series of "Woah"'s. When the number came to an end, the band took a moment to appreciate the view. "Wow, that's beautiful," said miku. "Bird no Higeki (Bird's Tragedy)" contrasted with its heavier style turning miku's tone into a lazy drawl before "Koritsu Hospital" exacerbated the atmosphere and the crowd went mad headbanging and dancing excitedly to the strong guitar line. takuya's solo at the end of the runway was surrounded on all sides by arms spread wide in adoration.
"We'll finish with this song!" miku announced. "Thank you so much for today!" Arms opened wide, softly flowing to the tune of "Cherry Saku Yuuki!!." Switching from sweet to cool in a moment, the eclectic song featured a variety of styles and melodies, proving a truly fun ending for the crowd—though of course they were far from satisfied yet!
Continuing on from the previous day, miku affected a similar, soppy speech accompanied by gentle keyboard. "We selfishly went on hiatus but you all accepted it well. Thank you for that. By putting Antic Cafe aside, we used that time to work on ourselves and our skills. I decided that I want to be your dream place. We're different from other bands. We can go on just doing childish things and become a place where you can return to your childish feelings, too. Let's have full-powered fun here when you need to! Those two and a half years of feelings are going to be poured into this next song. Please listen to 'My Heart Leaps For 'C'.'"
The number started slow but burst into positivity itself, miku tearing down the runway with endless enthusiasm. Towels whipped up in parody of the first day for "BondS~Kizuna" and red and white lasers careened through the air. yu-ki yelled into the mic, leading the crowd and punching out from behind his keyboard. The energy and unity created throughout the venue made for the perfect atmosphere for some thrilling announcements. Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo will be seeing a Zepp tour from An Cafe beginning on Christmas Eve in Tokyo with some very intriguing plans in the works for the latter locations from the mysterious "Nyappy Jump" to a fan-sung karaoke competition. "We'll be going overseas in November, so we'll look forward to seeing you again," miku announced. "Well, yesterday began with a smile and now we wanted to finish with a smile! 'Smile Ichiban…'" "Ii Onna!" finished the crowd.
Super bright and fun, the number truly did begin and end the two-day SUMMER DIVE with vibrant smiles all around. Silvery streamers flowed in hands all through the arena. "I love Antic Cafe!" miku cried, passionately. "Guitar, takuya!" The guitar solo came from between drum kit and keyboard, lining takuya up with yu-ki and teruki.
"This truly was the best summer memory and next we'll make the best winter memory! You can have high expectations! I'm the type of guy who never lets down expectations!" miku boasted. With that in mind, the whole stadium joined hands for an An Cafe special, the unique and heartfelt count of "1-2-3 Tiramisu! Tiramisu!" ending in swinging hands rather than the expected jump, inevitable laughter at the in-joke closing the evening. If any new fans were not in the loop or memories rusty from the hiatus and if any of those fans completed the jump they'll certainly remember the drill over the winter Zepp tour!

According to a professor of immunology and microbiology at Stanford University, humans were able to survive, spread and expand their populations once they left Africa because of immunities to disease they acquired from Neanderthals and Denisovans, who had lived in Europe and Asia already for hundreds of thousands of years.
A review of the new research appears in the online science magazine Discover under the date of June 20, 2011. The professor's name is Peter Parham.
Crux of the matter, according to Royal Society report
- Parham began by taking a close look at a family of genes called human leukocyte antigens (HLAs), which play a central role in our body's immune responses. We are able to react to a wide array of diseases because our HLA genes are highly variable, each containing dozens of alleles (forms of genes).
- Our ancestors in Africa, however, would have had a small number of HLA alleles because they likely traveled in small bands and had little contact with other groups. Moreover, their HLAs would have only protected them against African diseases.
- When Parham compared the HLAs of modern humans with those of Neanderthals and Denisovans, he noticed some overlaps. In particular, he found that HLA-C*0702, an allele common in Europeans and Asians but nonexistent in Africans, was also present in the Neanderthal genome. Similarly, HLA-A*11, which is found in modern Asians but not in Africans, popped up in Denisovan DNA.
- Overall, about 50 percent of HLA Class I alleles in Europeans seemed to come from Neanderthals, 70 to 80 percent in East Asians from Denisovans, and 90 to 95 percent in Papuans from Denisovans, Parham said at a recent Royal Society meeting.
DNA Consultants introduced its Neanderthal Index, a measure of affinity with archaic populations of Europe and the Middle East, one year ago this month.
Dr. Donald Yates says he is planning a visit to Vindija cave near Varazdin in Croatia this month to see firsthand the world's most important site for the discovery of Neanderthal bones and lifeways, dating to about 30,000 years ago.

Well this game has a hard mode, and being able to skip cutscenes makes second play throughs a bit more bearable (I'm impatient) but for those who have tried hard mode, win or lose, how do you feel about it?
My thoughts: "What is a hard mode? Just a miserable pile of lies!"
Now, typically in a videogame hard mode becoem my new "normal" This applies to to metroid series as well.
Zero Mission, All three Primes, 1 and low% Fusion and Low% Super Metroid but Other M is a whole other story.
I'm halfway through my second hard mode run of other M, and I'm reminded of why I hated it so much.
There's really nothing enjoyable about it, it's just for forced 0% run, something I'm sure a lot of us already on on our own with metroids games.
Zero Mission's hard mode is my favorite, not only is the damage done to you greatly increased, but you can still collect all the items, however, items collected are only worth have of their normal value.
Other M's hard mode just feels like fake difficulty to me, it also doesn't feel very rewarding when you complete it. Not only does it not record your final time, but you can't continue after the credits like in normal mode.
How you you people feel?
Also, I meant to post this in game play, could somebody move it please? Thanks!

The Brewers have lost nine of their last 10, but shortstop Jean Segura's outstanding play during the past week earned him National League Player of the Week honors for the period ending May 12.
In five games last week, Segura hit an NL-best .500 over 20 at-bats while leading the league in slugging percentage (.950) and on-base percentage (.545).
translation: the brewers pitching stinks but they have some guys in the field who can play.

As Jennifer noted, President Obama has written a letter to North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il. The exact contents of the letter are unknown, so I decided to just make it all up.
Dear Supreme Leader,
How are you? I am fine. Mrs. Obama is also fine. Our two children are also fine. The Vice President and his wife, too, are fine. Many members of the Cabinet are fine. We're all fine here. Thank you for asking. Even if it wasn't out loud but just in your mind.
It's been some time since we last chatted, although I'm informed that was never. Nevertheless, I can't help but think I know you somehow, although it may just be that I watched that puppet movie by the South Park guys one too many times.
Word on the street is that your country is different from ours. You have universal health care, for example (but if I'm not mistaken, no one is allowed to take ill in your nation without express written permission). Here, people can get sick whenever they want. For example, a lot of people are getting sick of me. (Just kidding.)
Anyhoo, I hear you guys don't have a lot in the way of strip malls and basic human rights. I'd like to address that strip-mall business. Wouldn't a nice Office Depot/Dunkin Donuts/Staples combo look just great in downtown Pyongyang? (Pyongyang does have a downtown, doesn't it? Or did you have it shot? Kidding again. We laugh a lot in Washington. Sometimes for no apparent reason. Then we take our pills and we're fine.) Read More

Meyer believes bright future ahead
24 Nov 2012
Heyneke Meyer says the value of the narrow wins on their European tour will be evident in the years ahead.
I've written extensively about what the potential fruits of this tour for the clutch of young and inexperienced players in particular will be and believe more strongly now that they will be central to the Springboks' resurgence in 2013.
Better Springboks sides with better individuals have not matched what this scratch team achieved against the backdrop of a injury-ravaged season. Optimism must now take root, and Meyer urged this.
'To win all three games is most positive. We've not used to playing in these conditions. The youngsters have adapted well, what they give up in experience they make up for in excitement. That really helped us,' he began. 'The set phases have been much better as was our kicking game. Pat [Lambie] was superb today. Youngsters like Eben [Etzebeth] stood up away from home, as did others. Its easier to win at home than away, and we've now won three on the trot, which is very encouraging. I really believe you'll only see the benefits of a tour like this in the years ahead. That our depth is better and players that would otherwise have been on the fringe have this sort of experience is hugely valuable.'
There will be those who'll lament the manner of their victories – defence ruling attack. We should, however, never lose sight of the fact that this was a Springboks side robbed of some of its best players, one at the end of the longest season in their careers and few settled combinations. Certainly there needs to be an improvement on attack, this level of defence is unsustainable, but for now Meyer lauded the defence resolve of his team.
'This is how you win trophies. The World Cup is going to be here so its good that we have the experience of grinding out the wins like we did tonight. This team has come a long way. For me I don't care how we did it, but we won,' he said.
Captain Jean de Villiers reinforced Meyer's view. 'Its 50 per of the game and we're up there with the best, if not the best, at it at the moment. The attitude and determination the guys showed in defence you can't coach. As a captain that makes me very proud.'
Asked to assess the season more broadly, Meyer said: 'It depends whether you look at glass half full or half empty. There were only three loses and those came against the top countries in the world. There were great [Springboks] sides that have come over here and didn't win. We brought an inexperienced side, were ranked number four team in the world and now end as number two. I would have taken that if offered, especially with some of my superstars out. The youngsters put their hands up. Other players did as well
and the guys coming back have to play hard for their places next year.'

25 Nov 2012, 14:44 pmThe Stormers contingent saved HM's arse this season.When he discarded kuk like spies(admittedly injured),Dean Greyling,Potgieter and JP Engelbrecht things started looking up for him.Getting rid of KD probably the best decision of his first year…..after bringing back Louw.
25 Nov 2012, 17:28 pmAnybody else think Estebeth (sp) is being unfairly targeted ???? He just has to give a squint glance and BAM! Ref blows and opposition players seem to be wanting to create another Bakkies in him… I think they fear him and the potential they see for the future in the way he plays and are trying to nip it in the bud and creat a dirty player, sorry if I have not explained properly but am a bit knakkered.
25 Nov 2012, 17:36 pm@Treehugger-52:
Looks like it.
He must tread carefully though, yesterday's incident a case in point, he started it by kicking the ball out of the scrum halves grasp and then trying to assert himself.
All he should to do now is concentrate on his primary task and stop getting involved in off the ball incidents and trying to be the alpha male -
25 Nov 2012, 17:44 pmEben has quite a bit of his uncle Cliffie inside him- and bakkies was a fairy in comparison to Cliffie- so we are going to see fireworks in future, u can bet your house on it.
25 Nov 2012, 17:47 pmEven the media hacks are now trying to improve HM's winning percentage. . Heyneke in buoyant mood

London – Springbok coach Heyneke Meyer said his first year in charge of the team had gone as well as he could have expected after they ended 2012 by "grinding out" a 16-15 win over England at Twickenham.Saturday's success saw South Africa finish the calendar year with a record of played 12, won eight, lost three and drawn one, with two of those defeats coming against world champions New Zealand and the other by Australia.
However, the win against England saw the Springboks complete an unbeaten tour of Europe following victories over Ireland (16-12) and Scotland (21-10).
Video highlights: England v South Africa
At Twickenham, they scored the only try of the match when blindside flanker Willem Alberts crossed early in the second half for a score converted by flyhalf Patrick Lambie, who also kicked South Africa's remaining points courtesy of three penalties.
The fact that England opted to go for goal when they were awarded a penalty at 16-12 behind with barely two minutes left, rather than opt for an attacking lineout that could have led to a match-clinching try, was testament to the Springboks' set-piece superiority and their forceful defence.
"You have to dig deep and grind out the wins," said Meyer. "I believe that this was one thing this team couldn't do.
25 Nov 2012, 17:47 pmMost enjoyable moment in rugby this year for me was Eben taking out the prima donna Bissy. Bissy will never be the same again, just wach it
25 Nov 2012, 18:04 pmHi Rob: when Cliffie was Eben's age, they (the brothers Etz.b and their "clan") were "cleaning" every bar in Parow, Vasco, Goodwood et al!
I have said it before that Eben has obviously an abundance of the Etzebeths' aggression in him but he has a "softer side" as well – I think it is his mother's good influence. His father Harry is not the perfect role model. Whenever Eben is interviewed, nothing is mentoned about Harry! I have heard some pretty bad things about Harry!Back to yesterday's test: have a look at that "incident" again. While Eben was on the ground / knees, Ashton gave him a slap on the head but retreated immediately, as if thinking "what the hell did I do now?"
Eben is going to get a lot of chirps and "attention" from his opponents in the future but I think he is much stronger mentally than a lot of folks think. If AC & co don't play him into the ground like Bekker he can become one of the best Boks ever !!
25 Nov 2012, 18:04 pmAll this analysis of HM Win loss ratio and comparing it to that of the previous coaches in order to convince us that his been successful is fundamentally flawed because the Argies have now joined the southern hemisphere tournament they're still a developing nation in terms of rugby and the Boks really should beat them easily every time and we didn't even manage that this year. The likes White, Mallet, PDV etc did not have the benefit of easy game like that 2/3 times per season to boost their win loss ratio
25 Nov 2012, 18:24 pmAgree 100%
HM has yet to proof himself against the might of Fiji, Samoa , Tonga, Italy ect?
25 Nov 2012, 18:25 pmI actually thought he was provoked and handled himself ok, he cant very well just shrink away he has to stand up for himself a bit.
As for the Bissie moment I quite enjoyed it myself, am not crazy about him.
25 Nov 2012, 18:34 pm@nama1-23: Hi pal.You have always been consistent re:ZK.Not joining line?Has anybody noticed how when
ball kicked to Dagg he has 2 to 3 supporters falling back.?
In other words,line joins him.Thought SK great. -
25 Nov 2012, 18:35 pmSK = ZK
25 Nov 2012, 18:36 pmNow how many poms would have slapped their handbags at BAKKIES?
25 Nov 2012, 18:42 pm@Robzim-56: Blind sided him.Watch it again.
25 Nov 2012, 18:47 pm@wnbb-51: Come on pal.It was a Springbok(Not Stormers )team.Kirschner brilliant I.M.O. JP very good Alberts very good Lambie OK
De jong invisible Jdv invisible.But I still rate them.Don,t stir embers of
provincialism here.Can only divide us.Agree with your assesment of Stormer players. -
25 Nov 2012, 18:52 pm@ryecatcher-61:
Hi Rye.Yes, my argument was always that our players don't fall back when the ball is kicked on our FB and he therefor becomes isolated leaving him no other choice than to kick for touch or kick an up and under. Yesterday, on the occasion where he knocked on, you only saw one player (Hougaard, I think) behind him.
All Black players on the other hand will fall back and you'll have a line of 3/4 players behind the ball catcher to mount a counter attack. Not only that, they also immediately move the ball to the far end of the field, away from the traffic, to where there is much more space. We saw it again last night how they move the ball to the opposite side off the field from where it was caught with just two long passes. Attacking the space when counter attacking should be the aim.
We rely on individual skills from our players, jinxing their way through the opposing players, to put the rest on side when they catch the ball at the back.
ZK was very good yesterday, especially with his catching from the air. Really shut the mouths of a few people with his performance.
PS: remember how people were adamant that he is poor in the air after dropping a high ball against Wales in 2010 from which they scored.
25 Nov 2012, 19:03 pm@nama1-66: Hi pal.I usually just sit back
and read.But this Anti ZK thing has been getting on my t its big time.
I played fullback.Was lomp and slow. Recognise a good player when
I see one, -
25 Nov 2012, 19:08 pm@nama1-66: You make me feel like a kenner LOL
25 Nov 2012, 19:27 pm@ryecatcher-68:
Oh, but you are, Rye.Everybody on this site is one in his/her own little way. That's what make it so interesting.
25 Nov 2012, 20:07 pm@nama1-66:
They've been doing that to us for a while now. They read the crash up and clearance and pull players back while the balls still in the ruck. They effectively give us an overlap because they know we won't run.
25 Nov 2012, 20:36 pmOften wonder what a 'Kenner' actaully is?
25 Nov 2012, 20:37 pmactually even!
25 Nov 2012, 20:51 pm@carol-71:
kenner – somebody who knows his stuff -
25 Nov 2012, 20:51 pm@ Carol kenner equals knower
25 Nov 2012, 21:05 pm@carol-71:
Kenner is an accolade given to someone who agrees with you.
25 Nov 2012, 21:08 pm@Gunther
25 Nov 2012, 21:21 pmA kenner is someone with a grotesquely protruding chin. Tobie Cronje is a kenner.

I told a woman I work with that if her problem starts with "I am" then itis her problem not mine. For example she complains that she can't sleepbecause she's pregnant. That's an "I am" problem which means it is herproblem not the rest of the world. In other words, she needs to quit actinglike the world is out to get her because she decided to get pregnant. Ihave no patience for that "the world is out to get me" mentality. If youhave a problem that starts with "I am" you can either change it or dealwith it. Either way, the reason it is a problem is because YOU let it be.Not because the rest of the world causes it to be.
Just because your child makes strait A's doesn't mean every child will.Bringing home lower grades also doesn't mean the child is stupid or lazy.Also, every child is different and learns in their own way. This goes fordisciplen as well. Spanking does not work on every child. Neither does timeout. A parent should know what works best for their child and use it. Therest of the world should but out. I mean seriously, I get being upset ifnothing is being done to make a child behave but if the child acts up andthe parent threatening no TV when they get home makes the child behave thenwho cares. Just bacause that is not how you would handle it doesn't meanits wrong.
So I'm driving to work today and see a guy driving in the center turn lanefor several blocks. At work, I mentioned it to one of my coworkers and westarted talking about it. One of them said something about "idiots" (asthey put it) who were "too stupid" to turn into the turn lane so they couldwork their way into a regular lane when turning left across a busy road.Technicaly you aren't allowed to do that either. Do people really notunderstand the meaning of "turn lane"? I guess it's kinda like the "leftlane for passing only" signs. People take them to mean what ever they wantthem to mean and then call other people idiots for actually obeying thesigns.
I don't care if you celebrate or not. I don't care what you believe. It isstill Christmas time no matter if you believe in what it stands for or not.Christmas is still a Nationally reconized holliday no matter what youbelieve. So no, I won't say "happy holidays" or "Merry Xmas". It isChristmas time and I will wish you a Merry Christmas.
Why is it that thefts go up so much this time of year and on suchrediculous items. I was reading a list of top things that are being stolenthis season and it was rediculous. Prime cuts of meat, the new rockingElmo, designer clothes, and electric razors were just a few of the topitems. I get that times are hard and people are really strugling to jus getby and you know if you got cought stealling bread and peanut butter or somecheap hamburger meat I might feel sorry for you but prime cuts of meat anddesigner clothes? People need to learn to live within their means. Also, amI the only one that sees a conection between todays bratty kids who have nomanners and think the world owes them something and the increase in theftsof toys like rocking Elmo? I mean I get that its an awsome toy but itsexpensive and my nephew wants it but he's not going to get it and I promisehis world will not end because he doesn't get every last thing he wants. Iremimber when I was a kid at Christmas time and while I know for a factthat I didn't get every thing I asked for the only thing I ever remiembernot getting was a guitar, which - did eventually get. I'm sure there weresome things that at the time I thought I couldn't live without but I can'tremimber them now and I always knew I was loved no matter how much orlittle I got.
I was reading an article about all these places baning kids or doing "babyhour" and then some of the comments about it as well. I don`t have kids butI love them and really even when they get a little loud in places I dontusually mind. There are places and times that it is just plain rude to letit continue and the age of the child has a lot to do with how much I`mwilling to tolerate. Last weekend we went out to eat and there was a childabout 2 years old that was just sitting there screaming as loud as shecould. The mom sat there ignoring her like it was perfectly normal forseveral minuets untill someone made a comment about how annoying that mustbe if she did it all the time and the mom "you get used to it". Finally themanager came by and asked her to please quiet the child down at which pointshe siad something about there being nothing she could do. Then the dadarrived and after trying to calm the chiland failing he took her ouside. Itwasent two minutes before they were back inside ant the child had the dadscapplaying with it with a big smile and was very wll behaved the rest oftheir meal. I dont think kids should be banned but I do think they shouldbe kicked out if they cant behave.
I bought a movie from Target that didn't work and had to fight to get a newone at no cost to me because it was on sale when I bought it and when Ireturned it the sale was over. That's supposed to be the policy but thereis no way I'm paying an extra $5 for a movie just because it didn't workthe first time I bought it. I don't buy movies at Target anymore because oftheir return policy. As much as I understand the need for a strict policyon games and dvds, I also refuse to continue to be cheated (or attempted tobe cheated) by a super strict policy. I have bought 3 dvds from Target(different locations) and all 3 of them have had to be taken back andargued over. I now buy my dvds other places but I still shop at Target fromtime to time because, in the end, they did give me what I needed. Just likehow I don't buy books from Wal-Mart anymore. They are well known for havingpages (sometimes entire chapters) missing from their books. I don't knowwhy, I've never had this problem when buying books from anywhere else.There are lots of stores I don't go to for some things but will for others.As the saying goes, "nobody is perfect" including your favorite stores.
All this fuss over the name of ice cream? Okay some people need to get alife. Then again, I'm one of those people that doesn't get get offendedeasily even when someone calls me some stupid name that is supposed to haveme instantly upset and up in arms. Now the people spreading that video ontwitter and facebook of the 14 year old girl...THAT is something to getupset about IMO.
(In no particular order) 1-insomnia 2-crappy movies made from good books 3-people who dont know how to merge 4-grammar/spelling maniacs 5-racists 6-hypocrites (especially in relationships) 7-people who think being military or ex-military makes them worship worthy 8-people who dont get that not everyone learns like them 9-people let their kids and/or animals run wild 10-resturaunts not having what I order from the menu
I understand wanting to understand someone that you are doing business withbut where do people get off thinking they have the right to criticizeanother customer for not speaking the same language as them right at thatmoment. I'm not even talking about not understanding English at all. I'mjust talking about caring on a private conversation with another person ina different language. News flash people: English is NOT the only languageout there. Do people seriously expect people who come from another countryto instantly start speaking English and never speak their native languageagain? That's really what it seems like sometimes. And what about peoplelike me who are trying to become bilingual? Am I not allowed to practice mySpanish while at the grocery store? What happened to land of the free andfreedom of speech or maybe even just the golden rule?
Yesterday I was talking to a friend who has said for years that she neverwants kids. She said she hates mothers day because she always gets askedwhen she plans on having kids and then told she isnt old enough to knowwhat she wants yet when she says never. Shes 26 same as me. I startedthinking about this and realized Ive been asked about if/when I plan onhaving kids as well as nobody says Im not old enough to know what I wantwhen I say that I want to adopt. Ive wanted kids for as long as I canremember. I used to babysit all the time and I would tell people that Iloved kids and couldnt wait to have some of my own. Even when I was inmiddle school and would tell people that, nobody ever said I wasnt oldenough to know what I wanted. They told me I should wait, and one askedwhat I would do if I couldnt have kids of my own which is when I said Iwould adopt and wanted to adopt even if I did have my own kids. So, why doso many people think a 26 year old isnt going to stick to a decision notto have kids but a 12 year old will stick to a decision to have kids and/oradopt?
Happy Easter. Have a fun, safe, and happy day.
Why do people say "my God" or "your God"? Does every person have adifferent God? Or is it more like it's "my God" because I believe but not"your God" because you don't believe? And then if you start to believe Hebecomes "your God"? At least for as long as you continue to believe Isupose. I was always taught that God loves everyone even if they don'tbelieve in and/or accept him. Wouldn't that make him everyone's God?
When I was a kid we sat indian style, our parents got told we acted badwhen we did, we had "indian gift exchanges", teachers had a "Secret Santa"and in December we had Christmas break and usually we had a Christmas playand Christmas party. Now kids sit "criss cross applesauce", parents get told their kid was"naughty" when they act up, they now have "White elephant gift exchanges",the teachers have a "Secret Pal", they take "Winter break" and you aren'tallowed to call it a "Christmas Party" or a "Christmas Play" (but the themecan be Christmas apparently).
It amazes me how some stores never change. I haven't shopped in Sears inprobably over a year because of the poor treatment I got (more then once)in there, how I saw other people treated, and their general lack of concernfor the customers satisfaction. I wrote a letter to them then telling themthat I would no longer shop at their store and why. They sent me couponsand I tore them up and threw them away. I wouldn't even give them thesatisfaction of having someone else use their coupons I was that displeasedwith them. Recently I was given a gift card to Sears as a gift and Idecided that since it really wouldn't cost me anything and they were havinga sale that I would give them a chance. I really couldn't recall exactlywhat they had done to upset me in the first place anyway so I figured itwas time to try again. The gift card is now in pieces in my trash canbecause with in moments of walking in they reminded me why I stoppedshopping there in the first place. Add Sears to the VERY short list of places I flat out refuse to shop from.I believe there is a total of 3 places on the list and one is a fast foodplace.

"Hotel is being remodeled."
Hotel must have been recently bought by Days Inn as it still has the old El Prado Inn sign in the building. I was unsure if it was my hotel. Construction being done everywhere, Luckily I was there on the weekend so there was no noise. Room was clean but dated. I forgot there was a time without flat screens. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO HAVE BEEN INFORMED […] OF THE RENOVATIONS. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések
"Construction in progress!"
Noise, noise, noise! No front desk, couldn't even store my bags. Should be stated that there are renovations going on. This was NOT stated in the hotels.com website.Hotels.com visszajelzések
"Not a good choice unless you don't need to sleep"
Perhaps once the renovation is complete, this hotel will be better, but for now it is horrible. There is no soundproofing at all, so not only can you hear every car that drives by on the busy State Street, but the post-bar crew that rolls into the hotel after 2am until 3am or so will wake you up. The style is from the 90s, complete with a CRT television. […] Just old and loud. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések
"Quaint, relaxing environment."
Remodeling did not affect stay, everything was ok, except the late check-in.Hotels.com visszajelzések
"Under construction"
The hotel was undergoing renovations at the time. Room was just OK, on the noisy street, breakfast was limited. This could all be because of the renos, not sure, the locations was fine, close to the downtown shopping.Hotels.com visszajelzések
The location is pretty good- there is a nice market across the street that carries a wide variety of foods. Hotel is in walking distance to several parks and to downtown Santa Barbara. The lobby of the hotel was under construction when we were there. I was not told about this when I called previously to request early check in and a crib. They could […] not guarantee the crib nor give us early check in. I asked if there would be somewhere we could store some items when we got into town until the room was ready and I was told this was a possibility. When we arrived we were told there was no such storage place as the lobby was closed for remodel. When we finally checked in we were told that the elevator would be out of use starting at 9 the following morning. We planned ahead and started taking things to our car early but on the last trip to the car at 8:30, we found the elevator was already taped up. Needless to say we had to carry the rest of our belongings down the stairs. The room was very basic but quite large. The biggest problem I had with it was that the floor was damp as if it was shampooed and not given enough time to dry completely. This made sleeping a bit uncomfortable as the room got kind of humid from the floor being damp. I'm sure things will get better there when their remodel is complete.

"Clean, great service, and good location!"
We arrived a couple hours prior to check in but the staff accommodated us and we got a room within minutes of our arrival. Good location! We were 3 girls and still felt safe walking to and from state street. There are several homeless people like any beach/city area, just fyi, so we did take a cab at night. We were just blocks from all the shops/restaurants […] so during the day we didn't have to hassle with driving and parking. The beach is probably a 25 minute walk. Breakfast the next day was great!

"Great location. Close to everything!"
It was a great place to stay. Our suite was just right. Very clean. I didn't like that the TV reception was bad at times and that bedroom had no overhead lighting and the nightstand lamps weren't bright but other than that everything else was great. The staff was very friendly and the location is perfect. Close to all the hotspots on State St. and pier. […] There's a market right across the street that has a deli & grill so perfect if you want a burger, salad or anything, wide selection. Would definately stay again.

"not a great stay"
have stayed here before so surprised to have problems. room not clean and front desk people could not pass on info to each other, caused problems for late arrivers in our party.Valódi Expedia visszajelzések
"For the $$ it worked for a night"
We needed to get out of Camarillo for the night and didn't want to pay too much and wanted to be close to downtown. Found Days Inn. You can miss it because the sign says Prado Inn- on State St you see Days Inn. Old building and rooms just as out dated. However, it smelled very clean- the linens were clean, pillows were nice. It had everything we needed- […] blow dryer, coffee maker with coffee, a fridge and a table and chairs; for a stop over it was great. It was walking distance from downtown- be ready to walk to get to the heart of downtown on State St. though. On a warm summer night this would be awesome- but in the 50's it was a bit chilly! When we returned for the night I believe younger kids (20's) found this hotel to be in their budget as well. They were extremly loud- yelling from the hall and stairway, walls are thin- heard bumps from upstairs and beside us all night. You can hear the traffic from State St. But that didn't bother me. You basically pay for what you get- for us it worked but will look for something else next time. További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"Enjoy Santa Barbara"
Hotel is very central - walk state st and enjoy Santa Barbara. Room was fine, a bargain by comparison with other rates in town. I'd stay there again just for the convenience. It's older style and some rooms may be a little noisy. We found it fine and were in the annex.Valódi Expedia visszajelzések
"Near the action"
Standard fare. The room was clean and comfortable. The sign on the building says "El Prado Inn", though.Hotels.com visszajelzések
"close to Downtown Santa Barbara"
The room was small, clean, & comfortable. Older hotel, close to shopping, restaurants, & bars. Staff was nice but no early check in unfortunately. Breakfast was coffee, fruit, bagels enough to get you going! Lots of sightseeing near by...the SB Mission, museums, Stearns Warf, Downtown. I would stay here again.Hotels.com visszajelzések

"Adequate economy lodging"
This is an old building That has old building issues. It's not a destination hotel, but the sheets and towels are clean and plentiful, It's quiet. The HVAC works. The TV was oldschool but adequate. The shower worked fine with plenty of hot water. For an economy crash pad, it did the trick.Valódi Expedia visszajelzések
"Great one night stand"
Stayed here while visiting relatives for Thanksgiving. Perfect place for a night, friendly staff, nice room.Hotels.com visszajelzések
"Great location"
You can't beat the convenience of this location just off State Street. The hotel staff is always very pleasant and helpful and the morning bakeries are good. There is a pool but no jacuzzi (bummer). The rooms are not so great, old furnishings, old TV, kind of dumpy ... yet clean. I keep going back due to the convenience of the location and affordab […] ility.

The carpet was filthy. The screens on the windows have not been cleaned in years. The WIFI connection dropped several times an hour.

"Great Location and Great Staff"
The Best Days Inn I've ever stayed at. The employees were very helpful, courteous and eager to please. Service with a smile at every occasion. Clean room, free parking and internet service, with a great deli/market accross the street. The bedding was old and should be replaced - the only suggestion I would make to management. Will stay again and recommend, […] especilally with the very high room cost in Santa Barbara! További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések
"unpleasant stay"
Rooms were very dirty. Shower and towels were not clean. Noisy mini fridge in room kept turning on and off all night. Noisy neighbors, and lots of noise from the streets. Housekeeping came at 8:30am to clean when checkout was at 11am. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.Valódi Expedia visszajelzések
"LOUD, uncomfortable"
Couldn't sleep at all between the a/c turning on every 30 min so LOUD it constantly woke me up; or the constant cars & people walking and talking outside of our window/door--it was like sleeping in a parking lot. Even the great location of this hotel being near downtown Santa Barbara was not worth the discomfort. Will NOT stay again.Hotels.com visszajelzések
"OK for one night"
Basic hotel in a characterless construction. Room comfort was good but room itself a little on the small side. Breakfast choice was poor, with coffee and a choice of only a couple of types of muffins. However, the hotel is in an excellent location in State Street close enough to walk into the main shopping area and further on to the beach and pier. […] So, great for a one night stay if you are visiting Santa Barbara for overnight stop. Other hotels/motels are further back out of town on State Street, where you'll also find more basic restaurants than there are locally to the hotel, like a Dennys and also a small shopping mall.

location is the only good thing about this hotel. walking distance to the good spots on state st. the room itself was disgusting. had a prison shower with rags for towels, i wouldnt even wash my car with these things. the carpet was sticky so bad that i wore sandels throught the room and even in the shower. there is not tub only standup shower. the […] sheets were put on our bed were still damp so when we went to sleep that night the bed felt moist and wet. god knows the last time they washed that comfortor so that was immedietly thrown on the floor. if you are looking for cheap and convienient this is your place...

"Nice and to the point..."
We came for a Black Key's concert and were looking for a hotel to stay in close to the concert. It seems alot of reviews are based on old ownership before Days Inn took over. Here's the thing...you don't spend much time in your room and the small but NOT too small rooms were perfect for my wife and I. Little fridge, small table and chairs, tv, etc...it […] was like it was designed for people like us who just need to put our stuff up and then head off to our destination. We would definitely stay here again if we are going to concert. For the price? Perfect. Cheap compared to other hotels. The neighborhood is fine. There is a market across the street. It's on State Street so you have to walk a few blocks till you get to the busy part of State...but's that all other hotels too...unless you want to spend $350up at Canary or somewhere. Pft! You are hardly in the room! Very clean too. Front desk was nice. Has a GREAT pool. Give it a shot! További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

"needs updating"
We picked this property because of its location. Right after arriving we wished we had picked another one. The room smelled musty. The bathroom sink had a foul odor eminating from it. The bed was comfortable, but the sheet corners kept coming undone. New linens would help. The room and property were in need of updating.

I'm on the WI/IL border and today (Nov. 1) I found what I think is to be a young monarch.
It was on a bush in the front of our house. I don't know how it's survived the last few nights as we had nights in the low 30's and even frost.
I brought it in and it's in a large clear container with mesh over the top. I put in a branch with greens (from the bush outside). I also put some drops of sugar water in there too and we saw it lick it up with its probiscus.
I left an email for the curator of the live butterfly exhibit at the Milwaukee Public Museum (about 30 minutes from our house here in WI). Waiting to hear back... and hoping they will allow us to give them this butterfly for the live exhibit.
Wondering on any tips? We have never done this before. We have been very careful NOT to touch the wings.
Any TIPS/SUGGESTIONS would be appreciated. It's such a beautiful creature and we want to keep it alive until we can give it to a live exhibit in our state.
Thank you.

One of the patched vulnerabilities stems from how older versions of Flash Player checks URL security domains, and only affects the Flash Player ActiveX plug-in for Internet Explorer on Windows 7 or Vista.
Both vulnerabilities can trigger memory corruptions and can be exploited to execute arbitrary code remotely. However, Adobe is not aware of any exploits for these flaws being used in online attacks at this time, said Wiebke Lips, Adobe's senior manager of corporate communications.
The latest Flash Player can be obtained at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
It is interesting to note that "silent update" has been introduced in Flash Player 11.2. Unlike Mozilla (or Google Chrome), users will be given a choice whether or not to allow software update automatically. And even when the automatic update option is enabled, Adobe will decide on a case-by-case basis which updates will be deployed silently and which won't.

I'm pretty sure shmedia.dll wouldn't be natively able to handle mkv and mp4 perhaps haali matroska splitter can help.

Here's a shell extension that adds details view data for M4A files. http://whitebear.ch/music.htm
That's one, how many other formats that XP doesn't have the built in capability to do that for? Looks like a project...
"Further Development: Perhaps I will extend the library to handle other music file types; possible candidates are .mp4, .m4b and .m4v; please inform me if you have a concrete interest in these or other (MPEG-4) file types."
Perhaps the author might release the source code so others can extend it to cover many other media types, and make a 64 bit version. Ehhhh, probably not. Wants a donation of 3 Euro.
Or could the function be back ported from 32 bit Vista to XP? If so, that still would only cover the additional types Vista recognizes.

The K-Lite Codec Pack offers thumbnail integration for MKV and other video file types.
