I was looking to see if I could get Def Lepard tickets on ticket master site and accidently typed Papa Roach instead of Def Lepard then a date popped up for 24 Aug 11 thats my moms birthday. So I call my mom and ask her if it will be ok to see Papa Roach on her birthday and celebrate her birthday a day early and she says to me "I dont see why not you spent the last two mothers day seeing them"...
Haha, at least you didn't have to call 20 times or more ^^ Yeah, for the moment my cousins know Papa Roach that's all, but I hope they will become fans after saw them in live, it would be awesome ! I don't think any other members of my family have already listened to 'em :/ Yes, in french we say "cousins" for boys and "cousines" for girls xD Anyway, I'm still praying to be able to go to the festival this summer (and I hope PRoach will be there, if it's not a simple rumor). I'm going to see my cousins during christmas holidays, I'll ask them if they can come with me otherwise my mother doesn't let me go x') And I'm looking forward for the next Papa Roach videoclip, Where Did The Angels Go (I wanted Before I Die in first, but it doesn't really matter ^^) :) Have a great day !
Oh I've just seen your comment x) Wooow, you called 13 time for ONE ticket ? Ouch... But you've finally got it, that's cool :) Haha, because of you I just listened to Bleeker Ridge, pretty cool ^^ Yeah I hope, and I don't know if my cousins are fans, but I guess they like it. They probably will go anyway, because they're used to go to festivals in summer ^^ They're really crazy about music and they play instruments (the three of them!) x) (Oh and they are girls, I specify because "cousins" is made for boys AND girls in english (if I'm right...), not like in french. Btw what should I say ? "female cousins" ? ^^)
How was Iron Maiden in live ? (I don't think I could answering your response this evening, but I will tomorrow :P Lots of work... :). )
Hellooo :) I guess you have got your tickets now, or at least I hope ^^ For my part, I cross my fingers, for you and.... for me x) Cause I found out that Papa Roach would come to a music festival in Belgium in 2013 (it's almost confirmed); it's near from france and I'll have (maybe) the chance to come to this festival (the Graspop festival), ONLY if my (belgians) cousins come too (because my parents don't wanna let me go alone, obviously... :/). Iron Maiden are part of the line up, I'm not as fan as I am with Proach, but I love their music and I have never seen them live... *-* Anyway, for now it's not certain but I hope ^^ Have a great day :D
Yep, in fact it's not easy to make a difference between train and high-speed train when you just look at it :P Anyway. I hope you'll be able to buy tickets, and even a VIP if it's possible :) I thought I wasn't lucky to don't have enough time or money (or because I don't have my license) to go to concerts (to take only this example) but it seems it's as difficult for you as it is for me xD So, good luck ^^
Oh okay, well high-speed train is like a train, but faster and... in fact I don't really know the other differences ^^ If you have time (and if you're interested oviously) you can take a look here to see what's a TGV: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TGV :)
And by the way, I finally found out that in North America there is an high-speed rail service called Acela Express, I didn't know it :P Here's a quote from wikipedia: "High-speed rail in the United States currently consists of one high-speed rail line: Amtrak's Acela Express runs on the Northeast Corridor from Boston to Washington, D.C. Unlike Asian or European systems, the Acela shares its tracks with conventional rail, and [...]" etc etc :)
Anyway, we don't have to care about trains x) That's so cool that you'll probably going to a show :D Will you buy VIP tickets too ?
In fact I already took the train but only once :) It was with my family, we were going to an airport. Well, it was a high-speed train but I believe you don't have it or not a lot in America, am I right or wrong ? It's hard to know with only internet ^^
I already took subway too, not often but a few times (it's funny, I didn't know what "subway" meant so when I read your comment I immediately thought about the sandwich restaurant ! xD)
I think that the VIP for Papa Roach is now $147 but I'm not sure. So before, it was less expensive ? I didn't know it, it's a pity for me x)
Well I don't use flickr so I don't know :/ But if you had saved the photos in your computer, you can keep it, isn't ? But anyway it doesn't matter if you let up your profile like this, it's cool :D Good luck for your work, I hope it isn't too tiring...
Sure I can take trains (TGV) :) From Aix-en-Provence (near from my city and near from Marseille) to Paris, if I take the direct train ride, I think the trip will take about three hours... With airplane Marseille-Paris it'll take one hour and a half. As the crow flies, the distance from my region to Paris is nearly 670 km (around 416 miles I guess).
In conclusion, if I want to go to a concert in Paris (that's not that there isn't any shows in my region but, most of the time, artists go only to the capital of countries :/), I have to pay for the train ticket, the concert ticket, and even the VIP pass if I can have one. xD I'll have to economise a lot of money... haha
Have a good day :)

Rice Protein
Rice Protein- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Used for Amount Why AtherosclerosisRefer to label instructions [1 star] Though not yet proven in clinical research, animal studies suggest that rice protein-based diets result in less buildup of atherosclerotic plaque compared with animal protein-based diets. Athletic PerformanceRefer to label instructions [1 star] Some athletes believe rice protein may also improve blood flow to muscle to enhance growth and repair. However, no research has investigated the effects of rice protein on athletic performance. ObesityRefer to label instructions [1 star] Dieters who are gluten or dairy sensitive and looking to supplement protein might consider rice protein, though its actual benefits for weight loss have not been studied.
Rice protein is extracted from rice and used in some protein supplements. Vegetarians may prefer it over protein supplements made from animal sources (such as whey or casein, which are milk proteins). Since rice is rarely involved in food allergies,1 rice protein may also be preferred by people with food allergies, and may be suitable to use in hypoallergenic infant formulas.2 Rice protein is not a complete protein, however, due to insufficient levels of the amino acids lysine and threonine.3, 4 Therefore, these amino acids are often added to rice protein products to correct this imbalance.

Comments about Sunwarrior® Warrior Blend Raw Protein - Chocolate:
Since going Primal I have been looking for a suitable protein. I ordered this and the Vanilla and I use them in the am to offset my egg intake, as well as boost my protein. I was concerned that it would have a vitamin or chalky taste. It has neither. The flavor is GREAT! It blends well, keeps me satisfied until my lunch, and has really helped kick my weight loss and training in the butt!
The only downside, and its tolerable when blended into smoothie form with ice, is the grit. Its a bit gritty no matter how long I let it set up. Usually I blend it @530 and toss in the freezer for and hour or so till I head for work at 7. Then its goes in the fridge there and eat it around 8am.
I can live with the grit as like I said the rest of it is great! Its perfect for me Paleo / Primal lifestyle.Pros

Comments about Sunwarrior® Warrior Blend Raw Protein - Chocolate:
I love the ingredients and all the health benefits from them. There is no soy to mess with hormones and is easier to digest then whey. The only thing is you can taste the pea protein and also it has texture from it. If your used to vegan protein you probably wont mind it. I mix mine with 8oz of low fat milk, a cup of frozen berries, half a banana and some ground bran and flax and its good then plus it makes for an awesome breakfast. I wish it had a little more chocolate flavor.

Comments about Sunwarrior® Warrior Blend Raw Protein - Chocolate:
I am very excited to have found this vegan protein option! I will admit it is 'slightly' chalky but still very digestable. The chocolate tastes lovely and I recommend it to all my friends who are looking for a vegan friendly protein shake powder. Add some raspberries or other berry choice into the mix and you won't even notice the hint of chalky after taste.

Updated 5:50 PM ET
WASHINGTON About 245 people have been arrested in an international investigation of child pornography, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Thursday.
The agency's director, John Morton, said 123 child victims were identified during the five-week investigation, which ended in early December. ICE and local authorities found 110 victims in 19 U.S. states, while the others were living in six countries elsewhere.
Morton declined to provide specific details about which foreign countries were involved, saying only that there were some cases in Mexico.
The investigation, dubbed "Operation Sunflower," was part of ICE's effort to find and rescue victims, and arrest abusers and people who make or transmit child pornography.
"We have to attack child exploitation relentlessly and together. There is no other way, there is no other answer," Morton said. "It is a wrong among wrongs. We are literally defending the defenseless."
Morton also announced arrest warrants for two unidentified adults charged in Los Angeles with molesting a girl who appeared in online photos to be about 13 when she was abused. The man and woman were identified only as "John Doe" and "Jane Doe" and authorities believe they may have been in the San Fernando Valley area north of Los Angeles when they abused the girl. Photos of the abuse investigators found online are believed to be about 11 years old, Morton said.
The victims ranged in age from less than 1 to 17 years old. Morton said 44 of the victims were living with their accused abusers.
Among those arrested were 51-year-old Gerald Roberts, of Pageland, S.C., who is accused of producing child pornography using a 6-year-old girl. Roberts, who has pleaded not guilty, was arrested Nov. 8 and is facing federal charges. His attorney, Michael Allen Meetze, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Michael Wioskowski, 54, of Eastpointe, Mich., was arrested Nov. 27 on charges of possession and receipt of child pornography. Investigators found a video in his home of two underage girls showering at his house when they served a warrant at his home. Wioskowski was a court security officer and formerly a reserve police officer in Michigan.
Wioskowski has not entered a plea, according to court records. His attorney, Robert S. Harrison, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In Fresno, Calif., 26-year-old Bradley Vaine, a convicted sex offender, was arrested Nov. 6 on federal charges of distribution and possession of child pornography. ICE said a 7-year-old mentally disabled girl was rescued. According to court records, Vaine was in federal custody and has not entered a plea. His attorney, Victor Chavez, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

- I wish I could understand the 5 WEEK investigation? Being a victim of sexual abuse for years as a child (10yrs), I'm afraid the investigation took way to much time, really? 150+ days. In those 150+ days, those children were being tortured ,raped, terrorized you all get my point! Please understand I know there was a lot of sick nasty individuals arrested in this 5 WEEK Investigation! I personally think that maybe because of all of the burricratical bull----,red tape, And legal protocol. So that these predators RIGHTS aren't broken. What about the CHILDRENS RIGHTS! Change is in order!!!!! As far as I'm concerned if for any reason we know a person may be in anyway involved with a child for purpose of any sexual gratification, and or breaking the CHILD'S RIGHTS to be safe, secure, innocence intact.
Holy God, I'm sitting here typing this out and instead of saying what , as a SURVIVIOR of CHILD SEXAUL ABUSE should be able to express freely, I'm choosing my words so that I don't offend the law makers , the sick twisted preditors that feed on our children. The police officers and detectives that work these case, and most of all the JUDGES that fail to grow a set.Instead Would rather sit and haggle if what in the investigation may harm or violate any of their rights ! PLEASE GIVE ME A REASON that would make sense of 150+ days that these children where terrified , raped , tortured , degraded , and stripped of any security to feel safe , truly and freely safe! Ya I at 47yrs old today ,am still trying to find real security, feel safe , even to allow my 11yr old to ride his bike around the flippen corner with his friends. I am only one small voice , but i am someone. Sincerely ,

- Extensive studies were done in NJ Avenel Sex Offender Unit for many years. The only time we appear to pay attention to these criminals is when we hear about them in the news. Meanwhile, there is information available to review. Rehabilitation of these individuals is rare. Chemical castration is what I believe to be an option for pedophiles. A review of the laws for this type of crime is urgent. They are rated by number of offenses and often are released.We are rightfully upset about gun violence and children but the suffering that families of abused children endure -- the endless problems for the adult who has been molested needs to be a subject that everyone can understand. For instance, our souls are not killed by the molestation as it is implied in one of these posts. There is no way to explain the guilt that adults go through if it is a family member. Sometimes a child is not believed and punished. Sometimes the child is traumatized and takes years to get back on track. Sexual abuse and battery of a child should require a long prison sentence and when released, managed release with electronic monitoring. Only then can this type of offender be in society.
- reply
- linkicon reporticon emailicon
- I believe their is nothing you can do to stop these perverts. They should be condemned to death as they will never change and the little souls of these children are forever ruined.
- reply
- linkicon reporticon emailicon
- Scarred, but not ruined.
As a child, I was molested... by more than one person... not all at the same time, either.
I too side with the death penalty. I do wonder what it would be like if I never had flashbacks or more confidence in myself, and more trust in people in general. I will never know love in the way most people take for granted. I know that those who did those things to me have gotten away with it, since - when I did tell people - nobody listened.
I'm not bitter, and I probably could write a book, but why wallow? Laws and regulations need to be updated and enforced. No more lies, no more cover-ups, no more chicanery. Especially by "religions" that allow this stuff to go on and be quietly buried.

lense is very good when it comes to sharpness and overall quality of the image. you might get a near or same quality with tamron, sigma or other 3rd party brands for the similar lenses but this lense offers great build quality compared to others. I bought it few months ago for 24240 in bangalore from a well known dealer and now i have already seen the prize go up to this much. The price in flipkart is too much compared to the market prize but wherever you buy this lense this will give you a great value for money. Hopefully they will include a IS in its next version which god knows when canon will release if at all they make up their mind to make one.
Very few weeks ago i saw that the bokeh from this lenses are coming up in an onion shape but not round (tokina offers the best bokeh if you ask me) and i have logged a service ticket with them. Lets see what happens.
Its one of the best lenses by "Canon" .If you are talking about "Portrait Photography",this is by far the most value for money lens by CANON. I personally highly recommend this rather than the 50mm 1.8 which is cheaper ,a bit handy in size but not good enough for professional point of view whereas the 50mm 1.2, which offers a lot less for the price you pay for it .The 50mm 1.4 is quiet handy as well as Great when comes to performance not to mention its a great value for money lens .Also professional movies can be shot combining it with Canon 60D&7D.In short Great Lens.
I have not purchased this lens from flipkart. For shooting portraits and indoor photography it is simply brilliant. The sharpness and quietness of the lens makes you say wow after you see the image.
I have a 18-55, 55-250 & this one with me. After buying this lens, it stayed on my camera for 95% of the time. You never feel like changing the lens once you appreciate how good and sharp the images are with this one.

[Solved] Gradient with png fallback
If you have a look at this codepen: http://codepen.io/SiteOctopus/pen/qvDdi, you'll see a nice background. This is done with gradients, which some browsers don't support, is there a way to have a PNG fallback?
Thanks in advance!
With a repeating bg image...sure!
Frankly, unless it's super important that they see your gradient/image...just served up a neutral bg color.
It's not as though they will know the difference.
What I'm wondering is how to actually write a bit of css that will show a colour instead
Yes but how would I show that only if the background can't be displayed?
Put it before all of you other background declarations.
If the browser can't support gradient declarations it will ignore them.

Experiment with the layers. For example, the main green shade of the grass is on 1 layer, above it is a layer with a brush, which has texture, so that it could recreate the slight chaos and grainy look and on top I draw separate blades of grass, which shape up the basic mass. Hold the different thing separate, so that you would be able to take them away at every moment in case you decide you don't like them anymore.
The other important setting to me is Color Dodge. I choose a round brush with white colour. From Mode I set it to Color Dodge and turn down the Opacity. I paint with it the places, which I want to make lighter or strongly light contours. This is the light-making brush, but you have to be very careful about her strength, because it is possible to spoil the colour and turn it into pure white.
The third important "brush" is Smudge Tool. When you go through its settings Shape Dynamics and Scattering, you can get a result pretty close to the mixing of paint in the classing painting. Choosing a brush with an interesting shape is something I very much prefer.
Take a look at your work from a distance. There is something you don't quite like? DO not hesitate, delete it and try something else in its place. After all you have layers. If your try isn't successful, you can always show the old layer.
In my case the balloon in the left part of the picture has been constantly was rather irritating to me…so I took it off, waiting to see what I'll replace it with. Then it occurred to me that as a child I used to flow little paper boats in a bucket of water. And there they are…the painted pieces of paper, flowing towards the fairytale world. And after that I didn't want to change anything. Take the old away, so that the new could come in its place…And do not hesitate, when you don't like something in that corner at the bottom…Change it!
The same has happened with the town. It seemed to me rather fragmented and scattered. I've tried to make it up, but it wouldn't't work out. Then I remembered – the best inspiration is the reality! My home town…with its thousands winding narrow streets, little houses situated on rocks, one above another as if perching on the hill. In order to concentrate on it only, I chose Crop and drew it as a separate picture. So that the feeling of my town could be full blooded, I decided to add some little lights like layer with "Lighter Color".
And so I could have missed many things which I would like to tell you or such, which you would have wanted to, ask me. But the most important thing I would repeat is that a picture is painted with heart and soul, not with brain!
Do train your logic before you start painting. Have a look at the works of many artists, not just one, so that you won't turn into someone's imitator!!!....Be yourself….find yourself! While looking at an artist's works, ask yourself how exactly has this happened, how has he done it? Learn him or her, draw a lot of sketches until the moment comes when your brain would have remembered the main principles of the construction of objects. Just then he or she would stop interfering with you and your heart and only by the stroke of the brush your hand would place the spot exactly where its place is. And your picture will be sealed with the magic of your soul. Every one of you can do it only if you have faith in yourself!
Here it is the "Daydreamer"…
What I am going to tell you about is part of my life. It took place a long time ago… There was a girl in a red dress, sitting on a rock. Each of her thoughts materialized and flew away into space, Creating a dream world… piece by piece…just like a jigsaw puzzle… It was a dream… Ten years later I was sitting on the same rock, writing about and painting enchanted far-away places… My dream had come true, and I had turned into Creator of worlds… As have you all… daydreamers... I dedicate this picture to all creative artists. Perhaps there is a place somewhere, beyond the limit of this world, Where they call you the CREATOR… looking at the sky… as the girl in the red dress is…
Keep on creating!

Comments about Franklin Champion Metal 72 Inch Roller Hockey Goal:
I bought this net on black friday for 60 bucks! i knew i was getting a good net because my friend bought the same net a year ago. the only complaint i have is some of the metal pieces are very tightly fit and i mean VERY TIGHTLY FIT! i had to use some pam cooking oil for two pieces to get them together, but other than that, the instructions are straight foward and it just takes a little time setting it up.

Region 10 School Superintendent Alan Beitmann has stated that Region 10 should have a relatively small increase unless funding from Hartford is cut for magnet programs. Region 10 participates in Project CHOICE (remember Sheff vs. O'Neill?), which entitles Hartford parents to choose a school in a participating suburban district to send their child. This was set up in 2008 to increase integration in predominantly white school districts. Tuition can either be charged (paid for by the sending district) or waived. I would suggest, if funding is cut, that Mr. Beitmann look out for the best interests of the taxpayers in Region 10 and either demand tuition or drop out of the program. I would hope that our school board and First Selectmen of Harwinton and Burlington, along with the Boards of finance recognize that taxpayers are hit with increases every which way and are unwilling to pay for yet another "entitlement."
Oh how the Republicans are whining about the cuts that are about to take place. These are the same people who would cut your mothers food stamps to protect their rich corporate buddies. So what if we do not have seven times the military as the next biggest army. So what if the rich slobs don't get to fly their Gulfstreams on vacations every other week. So what if the CEO's have to pay a few more dollars in taxes.
I say let the sequester happen I do not have any money and I do not have any skin in the game. The Republicans cried and cried that they want to cut government as long as it is not their pet projects.be careful what you wish for boys and girls. I say it's about time.
Frederick Acker, SPCA (NO affiliation with the respected ASPCA) has decided to appeal the decision splitting custody of the 62 dogs seized. Acker made a statement to the press that needs to be corrected. That the dogs are spread out in "some of the worst high kill shelters in the state." The dogs are not in high kill shelters, Connecticut does not have high kill shelters. Yes, dogs are euthanized in shelters. The sick, the dogs that cannot be retrained and are a danger to other dogs and humans. It is never an easy decision to euthanize, and Acker should be ashamed of himself as he knows the criteria. They are warm, well taken care of.
This appeal will give the prosecution another chance to seize the dogs that judge Trombley felt should be returned to Acker. Trombley stated that the larger dogs were less susceptible to the cold. This should be unacceptable in the appeal process. The Agricultural Department, Animal Control Division which supervises Animal Control Officers in all municipalities needs to step up and support Bethlehem's Animal Control Officer who did her job. State law requires kennels, pet stores, shelters, to have a temperature of at least 55 degrees. Not a degree under that Acker kept his animals in. Frederick Acker is no stranger to court proceedings nor to animal cruelty charges. In 2005 he was charged with 84 counts of animal cruelty. Somehow the press has failed to give the public all of the history on Mr. Acker. In 2005 a South Carolina shelter halted further shipments of dogs to Acker due to the arrest details.
Let's see some investigative reporting on Mr. Acker and a bit less sympathy for him until facts are presented.
I think it is a shame to see this fellow that is walking from FISH past the north end carrying a cross. People can hardly walk on the sidewalks. Torrington is not like it used to be. The cops should do something about it. This should not be allowed in Torrington.

Comment posted Misleading instructions to voters: is Duncan Macintyre trawling for 4th preference votes? by Treble T.
There is no need for a Disability Awareness Officer in Argyll & Bute. It is the councillor's job to make that he represents ALL his constituents and not just a select few.
Recent comments by Treble T
- SNP tightens party grip on local councillors in further chaos
I suggest that all the councillors in Argyll & Bute resign their seats as the electorate could easily manage without them. - Amazon given government grants
Waterstones and Amazon charge publishers 70% of the cover price of a book that they sell. - Amazon given government grants
Amazon have a large warehouse in Dunfermline.
The Scottish Government gave Amazon £10 Million in grants last year and Alex Salmond says that he is not going to demand that Amazon refund the money.
If Amazon want to route their profits through Luxemburg then I suggest that they have their warehouses based in Luxemburg as well where it would cost Amazon a lot more to post their orders to the UK. - SNP departures from administration – was money a factor?
It was the electorate of Argyll & Bute who are to blame. They voted in this bunch of incompetant councillors.
If these incompentant councillors were honourable people they would resign as Argyll & Bute councillors and force a series of by elections.
However there is no chance of that happening as this incompetant bunch will happilly take their councillors' salary for the next four years until the council elections in May 2016. - SNP departures from administration – was money a factor?
Good to see that Councillor Freeman's computer is working again and he is able send emails.
I am still waiting for a reply to an email I sent to him on Sunday 14th April 2013 which was 4 weeks past Sunday!

PILOT MOUNTAIN — East Surry scored two early goals and stayed in control for a 6-0 win over Mount Airy Tuesday.
Maria Mares handed out four assists for the Lady Cardinals, and Beth Johnson pitched a shutout at keeper.
"We got great effort and attitude from every player," said Coach John Sigmon. "They all should be proud because they all played great tonight."
The Lady Bears began the season 6-0 before two losses last week. The Cards came out mentally prepared for a battle and jumped out to an early 2-0 lead.
The wind was blowing hard at the start, and then East got those two goals, and the Bears just seemed to be out of it mentally after that, said Mount Airy Coach Will Hurley.
Panayiota Boutis scored twice and assisted to Katelyn Custer on a corner kick. Custer also had two goals for the Cards.
Cristal Hicinbothem and Grace Snow rounded out the scoring for the home team.
On the defensive side, Sigmon pointed out the solid play of Sydney Sands.
At the start of the second half, Sigmon had Boutis rotate back to the defense to let some fresh legs attack up front.
The Bears controlled the ball for much of the half, but Boutis helped solidify the back line.
With the score 4-0 at halftime, the Bears stopped playing team ball, Hurley said. Some of the team's better players felt like they had to get the squad going by scoring a goal, but they weren't passing like they normally do, he said.
In the loss, Hurley said Anna Ortiz, Jessica Escutia and Christy Beasley gave plenty of effort and never quit.
Hurley congratulated East Surry on its effort and noted the way the players talked throughout.
"I heard them communicating a lot better than we did," he said. The Bears needed to do a better job of talking — sometimes something as simple as saying "I got it" so teammates don't collide, he said.
East Surry travels to Atkins on Thursday, while Mount Airy hosts Alleghany that day.
On Friday, East travels to Bishop, while the Bears go to Atkins.

Im a bit sick of the Goldy getting a bad rap waves wise. QLD in general may not be as consistent, and broad as the likes of NSW and WA, but we still have the potential to turn on some amazing waves.
Heres a vid i found of South Straddie, here on the Gold Coast. Not too sure if this is the right thread to put it in, but have a watch of this...quite possibly the Goldy at its top.
I know its all stand ups, but its the waves you should see, not the surfers. Next time you wanna have a rip on the goldy's waves or Bodyboarding standard, just have a watch of this.

Nicely entertaining in a surreal, Milliganesque kind of way.

you are comfy with a very loose set of personal associations between the location, the tank and the stone circle... but it is true that this poem does not really bring the two together in any way that is apparent to me.
By "two" do you mean the tank and location? Are you asking why that location rather than, say, anywhere else? Good question.
wonder whether the question would even come up if I were to find this amidst the rest, or whether I would just be in the world of your poems where it would make its own sense rather than the sort of sense we make by connecting the google and wiki dots. Something like that, is what I was asking (you and me both).

We never imagined decent pizza could come from the land of cheddar and sidewalk-blocking tourists (otherwise known as Wisconsin).
We're ready to eat our words (and more) at Nicoletta, opening tonight in the East Village from Michael White (Marea, Osteria Morini).
The Midwestern-style crust has the crispness to satisfy Neapolitan diehards but is chewy and supple enough to require a fold. Create your own or trust White's carbonara (white sauce, prosciutto, eggs, Romano) and Calabrese (pepperoni, fennel sausage, onions, olives, mozzarella) to do the trick.
Before pies arrive, take in the exposed brick, tall ceilings, and marble tabletops with your eyes and roast calamari and sophisticated meat 'n' cheese plates with your mouth. Don't pass on mini beef and pork meatballs (we plan to ask for the nuggets as toppings).
Wine flows on tap and from the bottle; craft beers come from Milwaukee's Lakefront Brewery. Try the Fernet stout.
Really. Don't make us badger you.

Follow NSWP
Щелкните на термине для начала поиска
NSWP is withdrawing from the Paulo Longo Research Initiative (PLRI) and will be focussing on expanding Research for Sex Work beyond the peer-reviewed journal that it currently publishes into a project that will seek to build a broad collaboration between academia, community researchers and the sex worker rights movement. Initially NSWP will establish a listserv to which we will invite individual sex workers and researchers who wish to be involved and who endorse the NSWP core values and principles:
NSWP members are asked to nominate researchers or individual sex workers to join the listserv, by sending their names and email addresses to email@example.com. Researchers may also apply for membership of the R4SW listserv by sending a short introduction, (including links to at least 2 publications on sex work - or articles themselves if they are not open access publications) for circulation to NSWP members for endorsement by at least two members.
NSWP Board reserves the right to decline nominations or applications without providing any reason.
San Francisco police will no longer use condoms as evidence when arresting and charging sex workers, according to an announcement by law enforcement agencies and the Human Rights Commission.
This announcement follows a six-month trial moratorium period in which condoms were not used as evidence in cases.
Press statement from Maggie's, Stella and POWER.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. Le français suivra...
May 2, 2013 -- Supreme Court Justice Richard Wagner has denied several prominent sex worker groups the opportunity to intervene in the Bedford v. Canada appeal, to be heard at the Supreme Court of Canada on June 13th, 2013.
The constitutional challenge to the prostitution laws could strike down laws that have documented direct and negative impact on the lives and working conditions of sex workers, bosses, security people and other third parties as well as the lives of sex workers' clients and partners.
In what is becoming an increasingly innovative mechanism for challenging country reports on the CEDAW treaty, two organisations have recently submitted CEDAW shadow reports.
You can read the most recent shadow reports from the Sex-Worker Forum of Vienna and SZEXE which appear on our website.
We think that member organisations may find these reports useful as guidance if they wish to submit their own shadow country reports in the future.
For example, the next (55th) session of CEDAW will take place from 8th-26th July 2013 and will be looking as reports from the following countries:
You can keep up to date on the reporting schedule and find guidance on how to report, etc. on the CEDAW website here.
NSWP has begun collating any CEDAW shadow reports that other sex work organisations are happy to share, on our website under this CEDAW tag. If your organisation has submitted a report and you are happy to have it featured on our website please contact us.
NSWP Statement
NSWP condemns the recent decision by the Scottish Trades Union Congress (STUC) to cancel their agreement with Sex Worker Open University (SWOU) to provide a venue for the upcoming 'Sex Workers' Rights and Community Building Festival'.
The 'Sex Workers' Rights and Community Building Festival' brings together sex workers and allies from across the world and has attracted worldwide attention and public interest. It provides opportunities for both sex workers and other experts to share ideas and experiences, organise for sex workers' rights, and strategise around resisting harmful laws and policies. The decision to organise this festival in Scotland is extremely timely in light of recent attempts to criminalise those who purchase sexual services (known as the 'Swedish Model'). This approach is one that has been criticised heavily by NSWP and our members as it negatively impacts upon the health and human rights of sex workers.
Sex work is recognised as informal labour by International Labour Organisation and sex workers are protected under ILO Recommendation 200[1]. NSWP regrets and condemns the decision of STUC to take an approach to sex workers' rights that sits in contradiction to the recommendations of the ILO. This position is a clear dismissal of sex workers as deserving of trade union support and undermines their fundamental human right to organise and unionise.
In a statement the STUC claimed their decision was taken because the title of the event diametrically contradicts the STUC position – and yet the title of the event to have been held in the STUC building is 'Looking at Laws and Policies that Impact on Sex Workers and Strategies for Resistance and Change.', not as claimed "The Scottish Context: Opposing Criminalisation of Clients.", which is the topic of one presentation by SCOT-PEP representing Scottish sex workers perspectives. The STUC decision clearly represents an attempt to stifle the voices of sex workers and evidence-based debate on the current discourse in Scotland and beyond. It should also be noted that the STUC did not refuse to host this event but cancelled the booking at very short notice after publicity materials had been produced and distributed, at significant cost to a poorly-resourced sex worker rights movement.
NSWP urge the STUC to review their position in relation to supporting sex workers to organise, rather than be part of the system that oppresses sex workers. Sex work is work and sex workers must be afforded the same labour rights as any other workers. Any political perspective or legal framework that refuses to acknowledge this violates the human rights of sex workers.

Creating a .m4v Download Link
I'm attempting to create download links on several pages for .m4v video files. One of the pages is here: http://gkeagles.org/drew-austin-qb-2/. The setup is intended to be somewhat similar to the Screencast pages on CSS-Tricks, where visitors can watch online or download.
The problem I'm having is in creating the download link. My understanding is that I would simply use an  element: Click Here to download. When I do so, however, clicking on the link doesn't initiate a download, it just tries to navigate to the specified url. As a stop-gap in the meantime I'm going to upload a .zip of each video and link to that, which should force a download. Is there a way to force a download when linking to a .m4v file?
Thanks in advance for any help.I'm not completely familiar with this, though I believe it is possible to force the download using a .htaccess file.
Try this: create a .htaccess file in the server root (or add to it if that file already exists) and add these contents:AddType application/octet-stream .m4v
(according to http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/ultim ... ample.html -- see the "## FORCE FILE TO DOWNLOAD INSTEAD OF APPEAR IN BROWSER ###" section).
However, do check -- adding this line may mean that if you try to play a .m4v video (though a video player, rather than linking it) the file will attempt to download. If that is the case (I'm not sure off the top of my head), using a .zip file may be the best way to go. Perhaps other members will have some additional ideas as well.@falkencreative --
Thanks for the info -- I had looked at this technique as well but wasn't sure. Added the line to my .htaccess file, but it didn't work.
One important piece of information i forgot to add in my initial request: the site is built in Wordpress, so I'm attempting to add the download links in posts. I don't know if that makes a difference, but thought I should mention it.
Update 4/13/10: I really, really hope someone out there will take pity on me and offer some help on this one. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that I'm attempting to do this inside a WordPress post: no matter what I do (including one attempt to use php to force a download) clicking on the file link just tries to open a new page. I'm due to hand the project over to the client tomorrow and would really like to have this issue solved before then.Did you ever get an answer for how to write html so that an m4v video link is downloaded instead of played? I too want to do that on my site. Thanks, Wayne

PEMBROKE — Those behind a petition drive to get a special election on a constitutional amendment to reduce the size of the Lumbee Tribal Council from 21 to seven will have to work twice as hard as they thought.
According to Carvicous Barfield, chairman of the tribe's Board of Elections, 1,500 signatures will be needed to get a referendum on the amendment, not the 750 signatures that those behind the petition drive have been saying are needed.
The constitution allows a special election to be held on constitutional amendments if 5 percent of the tribe's eligible voters ages 18 and older petition the Board of Elections to do so. Barfield said that the tribe's Enrollment Office reports there are about 30,000 eligible voters, meaning the petitioners must produce about 1,500 eligible signatures to require a special election be held.
In a letter in today's edition of The Robesonian, Eric Locklear , a leader in the petition drive, says that on Friday the Board of Elections changed the number of required signatures from 750 to 1,500. Locklear could not be reached for comment.
Barfield said Wednesday that she twice told Locklear that the 750-signature estimate was based on there being 15,000 eligible voters, an unofficial number that she had received from the tribe's Enrollment Office. She said that the new figure of 1,500 needed signatures that she gave Locklear on Friday was based on a corrected report provided the Board of Elections by the Enrollment Office.
Barfield said that the Board of Elections met Saturday and neither Locklear nor any other of a handful of tribal members supposedly behind the petition drive attended.
"He (Locklear) hasn't sat down and discussed anything with the Elections Board," the chairman said. "We could answer some of his questions and we have some questions for him."
Locklear has said that there is still time before the November elections to amend the constitution to allow for the reduced number of council members. He told The Robesonian earlier this month that "using the written language of our constitution it could be approved in 30 days."
But Barfield, who says that the Elections Board is "responsible for protecting the integrity" of the elections process, doesn't agree. She said that the board will not allow an election to be held until all tribal members are aware of what the election involves and what the amendment means.
"The people have to be educated before an election will be held," she said. "We're not going to exclude anyone."
Locklear last week told The Robesonian that he planned to submit petitions calling for the special election this week. Barfield said Wednesday that no petitions have been filed with the Board of Elections.

This is a fun night out for all of us who are also Rays fans. For a grand slam time, meet up at the DEC HDQ for some fine wine and cheese and then head out to the game. The Rays are playing the Cleveland Indians. The tickets are press level tickets in Section 209 between home and third base. The tickets are $25.00 and we have a limited number of tickets available. If you wish to attend, contact Ramsay McLauchlan email@example.com who has the tickets. Checks need to be made to the PCDEC.
There will be a message on the screen welcoming us to the game. So if it's televised and you don't attend, look for your DEC friends and the message.
