Chicken 'chilindrón' (stew)
Chicken 'chilindrón' (stew)
Ingredients for 4 people: 1 large chicken 200 g of cured ham from Teruel 1 kg of ripe peeled tomatoes 1 large onion 2 large fleshy green peppers or 4 small ones 2 cloves of garlic 2 dl of olive oil 1 small glass of white wine or a splash of dry oloroso sherry Pepper Salt
Cut the chicken into pieces, removing the skin so that it is less fatty, and gently fry in an earthenware dish with the chopped cured ham. Dice the onion and the garlic and chop the tomatoes and the peppers, removing seeds and stalks. Fry all this together in a separate pan. Still well with a spoon for around 5 minutes. Then add this mixture to the dish with the chicken and cured ham. Place on a low flame and stir occasionally so that it does not stick. Cook for approximately half an hour, according to the size of the chicken pieces. After 20 minutes, add your chosen wine
Serve in the same dish it has been cooked in, if it is earthenware, or in a serving dish if not. In both cases, accompany with cubed fried potatoes or white rice served separately.

A user can enter the computer world through the extremely experimental method of digitization, which involves being scanned by a dual laser beam from a digitizing gun and literally disintegrating. The laser beam collects every atom of the digitized object and converts its information into digital data. Through this process, the user is transported into the computer world and can interact with the computer programs physically. Users have experienced dizziness and disorientation upon entry into digital worlds.
Users in the computer world have special abilities beyond the capabilities of basic programs. They can regain and regenerate more energy than programs, transfer their energy to programs and other objects, and withstand much more damage than programs, and they have more complex data than programs.
The MCP believed that a user derezzed in the computer world would die there and never return to the real world; however, when Kevin Flynn leaped into the MCP's beam, an action which would have derezzed a program, he was instead kicked out of the system and back to the real world via the digitizing gun. Users digitized into the Grid can return to the real world via the portal, but only while it is open and while possessing the master key.
Notable users Edit
- Kevin Flynn
- Alan Bradley
- Lora Bradley
- Ed Dillinger
- Mr. Henderson
- Roy Kleinberg
- Sam Flynn
- Walter Gibbs
Digitized users Edit
Only two users are known to have been digitized:
- Kevin Flynn, the first user to be digitized, undergoing the process by force in 1982 and voluntary many times thereafter until his last digitization in 1989.
- Sam Flynn - the second user to be digitized, undergoing the process inadvertently in 2010 and returning to the real world one millicycle later.
TRON 2.0 Edit
- Note: The following section contains information that appears in the TRON 2.0 storyline, which has been classed as non-canon with the TRON mythology and takes place in an alternate timeline.
In TRON 2.0 canon, some programs do not resemble their users; for example, Mercury's user turns out to be Alan Bradley. The game also introduced the possibility of the digitization process going wrong due to trouble with the digitization software or hardware, resulting in devastating effects upon users subjected to it.
Far more users in the game's canon have been digitized than in mainstream TRON canon. Some were corrupted in the process. Others were digitized correctly, but never identified.
- Jet Bradley - The main protagonist of the TRON 2.0 game.
- Alan Bradley - Digitized against his will.
- J.D. Thorne - Was corrupted and turned into a virus; later died.
- Ms. Popoff - Was corrupted with Baza and Crown and turned into a monster virus; later died.
- Mr. Crown - Was corrupted with Baza and Popoff and turned into a monster virus; later died.
- Mr. Baza - Was corrupted with Popoff and Crown and turned into a monster virus; later died.
- Various DataWraiths.
There is a possibility, suggested by plot points and the contents of emails sent and received by various users in the game, that Lora Bradley, Jet's mother, also underwent the digitization process:
- Lora died due to a misfire of the digitizing laser. It is not known whether the laser was active at the time.
- Emails detail rumors that Alan Bradley may have incorporated parts of Lora inside the computer after the digitizing accident into her program, Ma1a (and later successors Ma2a and Ma3a).
- Ma2a exhibits traits recognized as Lora's, suggesting she is connected with the program somehow.

Want a SUPER trip idea? Take a couple of days to step into comic book lore! Explore the hometown of a famous superhero. Metropolis, Illinois, is the "Hometown of Superman."
Want a SUPER trip idea? Take a couple of days to step into comic book lore! Explore the hometown of a famous superhero. Metropolis, Illinois, is the "Hometown of Superman."
The town celebrates its local hero in every possible manner. The souvenir store offers "the largest selection of Superman items on this planet." The local bank is "home of super financial services."
The town newspaper is called The Metropolis Planet. A grocery store sign reads: "Just as Superman stands for truth, justice and the American Way, Food World stands for quality, convenience and friendly service." At one time free packets of Kryptonite were given to children until it was deemed "unapproved Kryptonite" and is no longer allowed. The town's large welcome billboard is, most likely, the only sign of its kind that boasts a larger-than-life flying Superman.
The "Man of Steel" original statue guarding the courthouse steps on the square was continually perforated by vandals. He was replaced by a twelve-foot-tall, two-ton, "projectile-proof bronze Superman." Funding was provided by citizens purchasing engraved bricks for $35 each until their goal of $120,000 was reached.
Other interesting fun attractions in town include: the Lois Lane bronze statue, Kryptonite, Big John the grocery clerk giant statue, as well as the statue of Superman.
The super Superman Museum includes a vast private collection of Superman mania including George Reeves' belt and the Power Crystal from the 1979 movie. Superman comic book lore states that Clark Kent did not emerge as Superman until he moved to Metropolis. "Metropolis would be Superman's hometown since it is the first place on earth he appeared and was named Superman. He was merely Superboy in Smallville."
Fort Massac State Park is nearby and includes a replica of the 1802 fort on the Ohio River that was on site. The historic fort area contains two barracks, three block houses, officer quarters, well, stockade and a fraise fence. Originally, the French built a fort on the land in 1757.
After being destroyed the fort was reconstructed in 1794. It served as a military post for the next twenty years. Damaged by the infamous New Madrid earthquake of 1811-12, Fort Massac was abandoned in 1814, its timbers "scavenged by local settlers." In 1839 the town of Metropolis was platted near the fort grounds. The town was situated high above the river, with the hope that it would become a major transportation port. During the early years of the Civil War the fort was used as a training camp.
Metropolis is located 315 miles from the Lake of the Ozarks. Travel I-24 to Exit 37 or choose a cross-country route for welcoming stops along the way. Visitors will find clean and moderately-priced lodging in town as well as a good selection of eateries in town. Have a super time in Metropolis!

Cook and her husband of 19 years, Shawn, have one daughter, Kenley, age 11.
She is the daughter of Wes and Pat Conley and the daughter-in-law of Allen and Judy Cook.
The Sun-Times asked Cook a few questions about her soon-to-be new position:
Q What are you looking forward to as principal?
A Continuing the proud traditions of Smyrna High School, and helping to seek out new opportunities for our staff and students.
Q What are two of the biggest challenges?
A The increasing non-instructional workload imposed on our administrators and teachers as a result of No Child Left Behind and Race to the Top.
Q How does it feel to be appointed as the principal of your alma mater?
A I'm very proud! I love the Smyrna School District and Smyrna High School! It is my honor to be able to serve both in this new capacity.

Knowledge Base
Topics related to brazing to aid with learning and understanding the technical aspects of brazing, how brazing works, why it works, along with useful hints and tips.
On-site Staff Training
A convenient and customizable program, with options to meet your needs.
Technical Documentation
Visit our knowledge base for SDS and other technical documentation.
Brazing Fundamentals
Brazing is a process that uses a Braze Filler Metal (BFM) with a melting temperature above 840°F (450°C) but below the melting point of the metals to be joined. In brazing, the base metals are heated, usually to a point slightly above the liquidus (flow point) of the filler metal, causing it to melt. The filler metal then flows into the parallel joint clearance between the two base materials by capillary attraction and bonds to their surfaces through atomic attraction and diffusion.
To braze effectively braze, one must clearly understand brazing fundamentals. Most of the problems associated with brazing stem from one or more violations of the brazing fundamentals.
These fundamentals include the following:
- Good fit and proper clearance
- Clean base metals
- Proper fixturing
- Proper fluxing/atmosphere
- Heating the assembly
- Cleaning the brazed assembly

Pastor Enoch Adeboye is an evangelical pastor from Nigeria who promotes the existence of witches and wizards, resulting in the torture and death of young children and others in Nigeria, the wider African continent, and has also spread into Europe.
Adeboye is the leader of one of the fastest-growing Pentecostal churches in Africa, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, with over 6,000 affiliates and chapters around the world, including the US, Europe, and Asia. He is planning a 'tour through Australia and other southeast Pacific countries to raise money and plant new churches.
Rev. Adeboye is a controversial pastor who uses the Bible to promote the violent persecution of 'witches' and homosexuals, and who has been linked to a number of riots and assaults where people were attacked by his churchmembers. With the president of Nigeria as one of his congregants, he has been a powerful force to lobby the Nigerian government to ban same-sex marriage and criminalize homosexuality. He is one of the wealthiest pastors in Nigeria due to his ministry, holding a number of homes as well as private jets among his possessions, despite the vast majority of his parishioners living below the poverty level.
Progressive Atheists, an AAI Australian affiliate, is attempting to publicize the controversy of this pastor and petitioning the Austra... AAI is encouraging all Australians to sign the petition and contact your federal representatives to support the ban. You can also join the Facebook group to publicize this campaign.

Rural Missouri's guidelines for freelance submissions
We are also interested in trend stories which cover a rural topic in a journalistic, well-balanced approach including interviews with key people involved. Topics for trend stories include rural health care, education, transportation, new technologies, environment, etc. Trend stories should be timely and of a statewide and rural nature. We also prefer that stories have a good shelf life, as they might be held for six months or more before publishing in some cases.
Rural Missouri does not publish poetry or fiction, nor do we have space for monthly columns from freelance writers. We also rarely purchase reminiscence stories or stories written in first person.
We strongly encourage you to study back issues of our publication to gain an idea of what we publish. Some of our content is also available for review on our Web site, www.ruralmissouri.coop. Writing in a similar style or format as our staff could help your story get purchased for publication.
Fees are competitive but vary widely. Payment upon acceptance.
Rural Missouri is a photography-oriented publication. We are interested in
stories which can be illustrated with strong photographs or artwork.
We are particularly interested in writers with well-developed ideas for illustrating
their stories or who are able to shoot pictures themselves. Snap shots or photos
shot with a phone do not qualify as good, hig-resolution photographs for the
magazine. In most cases, a Rural Missouri staff member will shoot pictures to
accompany a story. That said, we will be happy to consider 300 dpi digital
We look for articles which exhibit clear, concise writing. As a writer, we want you
to paint a picture and draw us into that person's life, their world, a historic
moment in time or specific place. Make us feel like we've known the story
subject forever or that we've been to the place you describe. For history pieces,
give us attribution for the story you're telling — source the quotes you use. Who
says what facts you share are true? The readers (and our editors!) want to
know. Give us good, attributable quotes. And remember, history pieces, no
matter what the topic, should be colorful and have personality, too. (NOTE: If
Please keep in mind that when we buy a story, we expect you to be your own fact checker. After an article is published is NOT the time we want to find out you misspelled a name, quoted a statistic incorrectly or changed the date of a war. Your reputation as a writer, as well as our reputation, is on the line. So please double-check your facts. Also — not everything on the Internet is truth, nor should it be the primary source for a story.
We strongly suggest sending a well-written, detailed query letter before submitting a story. We may have already covered the topic, may currently be working on a story of the same nature, or the topic may not fit our publication. In your contact letter, describe in as much detail as possible what the story is about, why it would interest our readers and what ideas you may have for illustrating the story. Also include brief information about yourself, particularly your writing experience. Sending a sample of your previous published work with your query would be helpful so we can learn your writing style.
We prefer e-mailed submissions (as .rtf, .doc or PDF documents), but will accept submissions via USPS. All mailed story submissions or query letters should be accompanied by a self-addressed stamped envelope. Stories submitted without a self-addressed stamped envelope with appropriate postage will not be returned.
Submissions are considered on speculation with no obligation to purchase.
Please do not send original photographs or original artwork. If a historical article
is submitted, please include a list of research sources.
Please allow six to eight weeks for reply on submissions. Address all query letters or freelance submissions to:

Battlestar Galactica fans have been in withdrawal for quite a while now since the popular sci-fi series concluded and the subsequent spin-off series have had less-than-stellar success. All is not lost, however, as the Battlestar Galactica universe will return as a 10-episode webseries that premieres this week. A new clip from that series arrived online today.
Titled Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome, the new series (which was originally conceived as a two-hour movie) will serve as a prequel to the wildly successful series that ran for four seasons on Syfy. Blood & Chrome stars Luke Pasqualino as a young William "Husker" Adama, and he's joined by actors Ben Cotton and Lili Bordán.
All ten episodes of the series will be released on Machinima.com starting November 9, and the entire project will then air on Syfy in early 2013.
The premise of the series follows Adama during the tenth year of humanity's war with the robotic Cylons, as he's assigned to the massive Galactica battleship and clashes with a battle-weary commanding officer (Cotton). The series is based on a story by Michael Taylor, Bradley Thompson, and David Weddle, as well as the reimagined series' co-creator, David Eick.
You can watch the first clip from the series below:

CoffeeScript - JavaScript the Good Parts
- Share
- |
Read later
Reading List
At the recent Emerging Languages Conference (a part of OSCON), Jeremy Ashkenas the lead developer of DocumentCloud and creator of underscore.js, presented CoffeeScript, a language that is cross compiled to JavaScript.
Just today CoffeeScript version 0.9.0 was
released. The main, compatibility breaking change was to change the assignment operator from colon
: to
the more JavaScript like equals sign
=. This very
much discussed step was mainly done to
enable YAML
style object literals and named
parameters. Half assignments (
a : or 'default') were also removed from the language. Some improvements
have been introduced to the (optional) class inheritance system.
There are other such languages, but as we'd like to cover here, CoffeeScript differs in intent and features. Jeremy provided many insights in answering our questions. His answers are reflected in the article.
Jeremy worked extensively with JavaScript and experienced its shortcomings firsthand. He sums up the intent behind his language:
With the recent introduction of powerful JS engines (such as V8 and Nitro) JavaScript became a very fast and powerful dynamic language. Its omnipresence in web applications and recently in event driven, non-blocking server runtimes (such as Node.js) makes it a critical language of the near future. Besides performance and familiarity with the language, a new factor is the reuse of JavaScript code and libraries on client and server. Especially the domain model, validations and application logic can be shared.
Jeremy is very clear on that: "The first person to create a pleasant end-to-end system for programming JavaScript web applications wins the next five years of web development, period."
These reasons made it obvious for Jeremy to focus on JavaScript as target platform. While based on JavaScript, CoffeeScript is heavily influenced by Python, functional languages like Haskell and of course EcmaScript 5 and many of the suggestions from the EcmaScript Harmony Wiki. The three main areas that CoffeeScript focuses on are:
Syntactic cleanup
- Python style significant whitespace
- implicit parentheses
- no semicolons
- String continuations
- concise function literals
- YAML style object literals
Semantic enhancements
- everything is an expression (returns a value)
- all variables in local lexical scope, no pollution of global scope
- simple assignment and variable declarations, destructuring assignments
- switch statements compiled to if-then-else chains
- chain comparisons
- named parameters
- variable arguments lists (splats)
- literate programming (write the code within its documentation)
- pythons range, array and object comprehensions
- existential (elvis) operator
- explicit strong binding of current self to function with
=>Hashrocket operator
- fast and working class based inheritance support, based on the google.inherit approach
- support for static inheritance and automatic delegation to superclass methods
- heredocs, multiline strings, literal regexps, string interpolation/substitution
- Cake a simple build system similar to Rake
- <script type="text/coffeescript"> tags, minified coffescript compiler for inline use
Some examples taken from the documentation show the features.
# Assignment: number = 42 opposite = true # Conditions: number = -42 if opposite # Functions: square = (x) -> x * x # Arrays: list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] # Objects: math = root: Math.sqrt square: square cube: (x) -> x * square x # Named (like) parameters fun key : value (compiled to call({key: value}); ) # Splats: race = (winner, runners...) -> print winner, runners # Existence: alert "I knew it!" if elvis? # Accessor existence operator (null safe) lottery.drawWinner()?.address?.zipcode # Array comprehensions: cubes = math.cube num for num in list # Object comprehensions: yearsOld = max: 10, ida: 9, tim: 11 ages = for child, age of yearsOld child + " is " + age # Destructuring [city, temp, forecast] = weatherReport "Berkeley, CA" [open, contents..., close] = "
".split("") # Functions and strong binding of this Account = (customer, cart) -> @customer = customer @cart = cart $('.shopping_cart').bind 'click', (event) => @customer.purchase @cart # Regexp & String substitution sep = "[.\\/\\- ]" dates = /\d+#sep\d+#sep\d+/g
Coffeescript can be installed by cloning the github repository and
using the included build system Cake (similar to Rake) to build
it (
sudo bin/cake install). With npm, the Node Package Manager it is
equally easy: sudo
npm install coffee-script. Then
coffee compiler is available to compile CoffeeScript
to JavaScript or execute it interactively.
coffee is a self hosted CoffeeScript compiler:
The trick with a self-hosted language is that you have to start with a place to stand. The original CoffeeScript compiler was written in Ruby. With 0.5.0, I did a fairly one-to-one port of the Ruby version to CoffeeScript, compiled that, ran the new compiler on it's own code, and then ran all of the tests with the self-compiled version. A heart-stopping moment, for sure. [...] Doing a self-hosting compiler keeps you honest. You stay sensitive to corner-case bugs, performance, and the cleanliness of the generated code.
As CoffeeScript is compiled source to source to JavaScript, some language features that have been requested (like
negative array indexing) are not possible. At least not with access to the JS runtime.
Another aspect of cross compilation are runtime error traces and debugging the generated JavaScript. As line numbers won't match it is more difficult to relate the JavaScript code to the original CoffeeScript. That's why Jeremy took special care to create well readable JavaScript code and also suggests compiling beforehand and deploying/debugging the JS code directly. So CoffeeScript works as a code generator language.
Regarding the effort of creating CoffeeScript, Jeremy notes that it is no rocket science:
CoffeeScript is only 2,090 lines of code, all of it annotated, literate-programming-style. If you want to get your feet wet with a programming language that fits the way you want to code, I encourage you to borrow a runtime that you like, and to play with the source of some of the languages presented at the camp. Let a thousand little languages bloom.
A rich ecosystem has already evolved around CoffeeScript. Various commiters provided syntax highlighters for different editors and integration projects for node.js, Rhino, Rack, Python, Rails3 and Jammit.
You can listen to Jeremy talking about CoffeeScript at the TheChangeLog podcast episode 0.2.9 and the JSConf2010 presentation.

Significant whitespace !?!?
jean-simon Larochelle
Because of significant whitespace I will not use Python and therefore I would not use CoffeeByte either. I like to have a clear and unambiguous block delimiter in programming language and feel that significant whitespace is a "bug magnet".
Re: Significant whitespace !?!?
Luis Espinal
Interesting article on an interesting project however significant whitespace is a very bad idea.
Because of significant whitespace I will not use Python and therefore I would not use CoffeeByte either. I like to have a clear and unambiguous block delimiter in programming language and feel that significant whitespace is a "bug magnet".
Do you have any evidence that whitespace significance is a bad idea? I'm a Java developer (mostly), and from where I see it (and from the type of code entropy I've had to work and fix in the past), Python code looks extremely readable.
Whitespace significance is not about "ZOMG, I gotta get my space bar or tab counts right". It doesn't work that way. It is simply a manner to enforce nested blocks to have an indentation greater that their containing blocks.
Having work with a ton of Java, C, Basic (various flavours), and FoxPro code in the past, I can tell you that poor indentation is one of the top bug magnets. Some of the things we have made in the past has been to draw a line in the sand and force everyone to run their changes through a "standard" source code formatter (with manual deviations allowed mind you) before submitting them to version control.
Programmers, as unprofessional prima donnas many of them they are, kick and scream at the idea of having to run a formatter with "project standard" settings. After a while, and when they see their massive code bases having a uniform block indentation (specially if their code was originally a mess), they end up loving it.
Python simply does that at the syntactical level. And the rules whitespace significance are very simple. If a programmer has problems working with that to produce good code, that person should re-consider working in this profession, no offense.
There are more insidious bugs that are unavoidable - threading bugs, integration bugs, timing bugs. But bugs caused by whitespace significance???? What exactly are we talking about here?
Any concrete evidence of this?
Re: Re: Significant whitespace !?!?
jean-simon Larochelle
I admit that I am not totally rational about this issue and my irrational fear of significant whitespace goes back to programming on punch cards (IBM mainframe). In one program I wrote I accidentally started typing (punching) one column early and the assignment turned into a comment :(. I spent a good amount of time chasing that bug (this program was written in COBOL or FORTRAN). Now I will also admit that position on a punch card and significant whitespace is not exactly the same so what exactly is my problem with whitespace. The answer is probably that after so many years of Pascal, C/C++ and Java I am now so use to nice delimiters that I find code that don't use them difficult to understand.
So I guess the answer to your question is: no I don't have concrete (rigourous) evidence that significant whitespace is a source of bugs.
I guess that the kind of thing that make me nervous is people accidentally deleting blanks but from what your saying it sounds like this should not be a problem. I'm glad to hear that because I certainly agree with you that there is enough source of bugs as it is without accidental removal of blanks introducing more bugs.
I might just take another look at Python and CoffeeScript. Since I have written programs in language like x86 Assembly, APL, COBOL, C++, Java and others I should be able to learn those languages even with the significant whitespace.
Re: Re: Significant whitespace !?!?
Luis Espinal
I do appreciate your candor in replying back, and don't get me wrong, I like nice delimiters, but I've had to deals with thousands of lines of code (the majority of it FoxPro and Java), that although have nice delimiters, they were poorly formatted to the point that it was impossible to get through them without some monumental effort.
And that the thing, delimiters do state unambiguously what they do... to the compiler. But there is nothing that forces the code around them to be readable enough. Barring some edge cases (code optimized for performance or space), it should speak its intention (a required attribute for maintainability.)
Significant space (or it should be called "syntactically enforced indentation") is an attempt to the later. For a good developer, it doesn't make a difference (since he already goes to lengths in enforcing indentation). I does forces the not-so-good developer to indent appropriately (and hopefully teaches him how to write readable, maintainable code.)
Don't get me wrong, I had the same worries about the concept, but once I delved into it, I'm hooked. I'm trying to get out of Java and into Python, Ruby or DSL-writing, preferably the first. It is really pure joy to do actual work in an environment that puts barriers to poorly indented software (the bane of my existence;)

Re: Re: Significant whitespace !?!?
jean-simon Larochelle
A project like CoffeScript is interesting and I might actually have a better look at it eventually. From the discussion here I get the feeling that significant whitespace might actually not be so bad.
Re: Re: Significant whitespace !?!?
Jim Cakalic
Flamewars over whitespace styles (2/3/4/8 spaces per tabs, tabs vs physical spaces, even whining about the annoyance of the issue vs the sared beauty that is python - or so I've been told) are as annoying as flamewars over brace positioning - but the fact is that no matter how ugly your braces are, the meaning is never hidden by an editor setting that you forgot to check.

I have just got too much going on lately. Let's face it actually, we all have too much going on! When my co-blogger Jim LaPierre posted his essay in Get A Life, I never planned on taking two months to respond but life happens and even the good things are often overwheming enough to throw us off track. The thing that is often so hard about responding to Jim's blogs is that we agree on almost everything, and we do about this also! (It would be way more fun if we could get into a nice heated discussion now and again, but nope, that almost never happens).
So here is my response. Social media is both good and bad, just like almost every other single thing in life! There that was easy wasn't it!
The trick here, like in everything, is balance. We can't let it monopolize our time. I truly believe that one of the reasons we are all so anxious, stressed, and overwhelmed nowadays is because we are always plugged in, 24/7. We have instant access to news, good and bad, around the clock. We are available to our employers, children, parents and partners every single second of every single day. We almost never go anyplace without our phones, our tablets or our laptops. This is unhealthy, physically and emotionally but I am just as guilty as everyone of doing it!
In truth, I actually LOVE most of the opportunites we have to connect via social media! I love that I can know what all my friends are doing on a daily basis. There is no reason for any of us to ever lose touch. I love that I can keep track of every single art opening, or concert or when the next PechaKucha is happening. Without my Facebook event calendar, I'd miss most of these events! In fact, without Facebook I probably never would have bothered finding out what PechaKucha even is! I love that I can catch up once in awhile with friends from my childhood and that I can see pictures of their grandchildren. I love opening up my computer in the morning and finding a new picture of the great niece I've never met, or pictures of the latest adventures and travels of my adult children!
Just like in real life we have those virtual friends we treasure, those who share pearls of wisdom and support whenever needed. We have those virtual friends who make us laugh, out loud and often. Then we have those virtual friends who over-share, who talk about their intimate medical procedures and every detail of their latest romantic relationship. At least online we have the option of "hiding" those folks whenever necessary, not always an option in real life!
That being said, I can really only focus on so much of it. I have a Twitter account, but can't really get into it, mostly because I'm just too wordy for Twitter! I have no need at the moment to be LinkedIn but can see that if I am ever looking for a new job that might be useful! I can never invision a time when I might need Google+! Like everything else in our lives, social media is good in moderation. In fact, in moderation, its wonderful, it can help build new friendships and enhance the ones we already have. However, we can't let it take over and we can't let it replace real, honest to goodness, in person relationships!
Lots of people also seem to conduct romances over the internet. Now as over-stimulating as too much information can be, online relationships are just not stimulating enough, at least not in all the right ways. Sorry, I need real life contact! And not just for THAT people, I mean for all the reasons in person is better; body language, tone of voice, eye contact! You have to do this over a good meal or on a long walk along the river. You have to do this while strolling downtown, holding hands. You just can't do this online, no matter how good your internet connection is!
So this is why its taken me two months to respond to Jim's blog. It turns out working 50 hours a week, finishing a degree, having a family, trying to have a social life, trying to have a dating life and writing two blogs is just a little too much! Whew! Something has to give! So, I'm going to continue writing Postcards, but am working on helping Jim find another partner to help him with Get A Life. Maybe I'll be able to find someone he can argue with. He loves that!
In the meantime, I'll still be on Facebook, probably way more than I should be, because I adore all you people! But if I don't respond now and again it means I've turned off my phone and just might be having a real life, personal, conversation with someone!

Nah man, not quite finished yet!
[Verse 1]
Girl, I think you just might have tried
To pull a motherfuckin' fast one. I'm mad
You just hurt my goddamn feeling
And that was the last one I had
Does this look like an arcade, trying to play games?
See this saw blade? See this silhouette
Of a stalker in your walkway? Better cooperate
Or get sauteed and rotisseried while you're hog-tied
MC's get so quiet you can hear
A motherfucking dog whistle when I walk by
Colt Seavers on a mule stunting on that ass
Like a fuckin' Fall Guy! I don't gas my Mercedes
After midnight, I treat it like a Mogwai
Cause it will turn into a Gremlin and run over kids
Women and men - "Vrinn Vrinn!" - motor so big
You can fit a midget in his engine
Bitch, gimme them digits; why you cringin'?
Not by the hair on my chinny-chin-chin will I spend spend
Even 10 cents on you. Since when
Did you think it'll cost me a pretty penny
Shit, if I think a penny's pretty
Just imagine how beautiful a quarter is to me
Eenie-meenie-miney-mo, catch an eskimo by his toe
While he's trying to roll a snowball
But, don't make him lose his cool
If he hollers better let him go y'all
You don't own me
Now here we go, go, go!
[Verse 2]
Get up baby, get a move on like a U-Haul
You can rack your brain like pool balls
You won't ever think of this shit
"Yeah, honey, you called?" Well here I come
Havoc on a beat, I wreak it
Evil: I see, hear and speak it
Lady put your money on Shady, fuck that other weak shit
Put your eggs in the same basket
You can count every motherfuckin' chicken fore it hatches
Cause you can bet your ass we gonna get it crackin'
Like Kraken and Titans when they're clashin'
Get your brains bashed in so bad
You're gonna have Kurt Cobain askin'
To autograph a bloodstained napkin
Unfashionable and about as rational
As a rash on a fag's asshole
Now let's take that line run it up the flagpole
With Elton, see if he's cool with it
Don't stand there and look stupid at me
Bitch I ain't in the mood for this shit
Get my dick, Google it, til it pops up
Y'all just so motherfuckin' full of shit
That you stopped up
Me I'm always shitting diarrhea of the mouth
Till your speakers crap out, "pfft, huh what?"
Girl you got a hot butt, like a lit cigarette
(chig-chigga-ret) But you won't get a hot fudge sundae
From me so don't strut my way, slut because…
You don't own me
Now here we go, go, go!
[Verse 3]
And now that I got your panties in a bunch
And your bowels in an uproar
I'mma show you why I came
So you stop asking me what the fuck for
Now look, you little slut, cunt whore
I know you want more
Bitch, it's time to put the math back into Mathers
Cause I'm a fuckin' problem, run boy
Every flow, got it mastered, so
Every last word that you fuckin' fags heard
Comes straight from the fish's ass
Yeah, in other words I'm a "bass-turd"
Looking at me like I killed Kenny
Gas in the tank? Yeah, still plenty
No morals are instilled in me so remorse
I really don't feel any
Eat your heart out, Hannibal, understandable
Why you're jealous, fucking animal?
I got cannibal magnetism
Can't resist em, now can you, ho?
"Shady I don't understand your flow", understand my flow?
Bitch, I flow like Troy Polamalu's hair boy
Don't you dare try to follow or compare boy
I'm raw, you ain't even medium-rare
Stay the fuck outta my hair, boy
You can look, you can stare and point
But you can't touch, I'm too clairvoyant
I don't get it man, is there a void?
All this weak shit, what am I, steroids?
Well bitch I'm back, with some shit for that ass
And your trunk: elephant, hemorrhoids
And remember boys…
Thank you for coming out.
I hope you enjoyed the show.
Until next time, peace.

What book is the hip-hop equivalent of Our Band Could Be Your Life or Last Night A DJ Saved My Life?
Something that covers the history in depth and features all the big players. Particularly Kool Herc.
Kool Herc is in Last Night A DJ Saved My Life a lot if I remember right
But yeah I have no idea, and I aint that interested in old school hip-hop anymore.
Man, you're so cool.
I think there are some cool bits in the film scratch where Kool Herc is featured, Afrika Bambaataa walks you around his block and talks about the start of hip-hop and Grand Master Flash showing how he first got into scratching and beat juggling. Some electro cut up guys as well. Its pretty ace. But yeah I kinda exhausted my interest in the old stuff some time ago after hearing so much as a kid.
Always meant to get this...
Catch The Beat, its the early days where soul, hip-hop and dance where all merged together really. Thats my favourite bit from early hip-hop which is why I like the Last Night A DJ Saved My Life and Scratch a lot cos its about the beats and DJs making this new music thats a load of fun then it gets taken over by MCs and isn't really dance music anymore.
dunno about that
but the egotrip big book of rap lists was the besssssstjoeymahone this'd this
Westsiders by William Shaw
Absolute classic about the underground LA rap scene, following several aspiring rappers, producers & label owners around open mic/rap battle events. A brilliant read.
Sorry didn't read the OP correctly
It's not an exhaustive history and it doesn't feature any big names, but if you love hip-hop you're sure to enjoy it.
Can't Stop, Won't Stop
Kool Herc wrote the forward for this, so it should be sort of what you're looking for. It doesn't really bother with anything modern and the evolution of the form, but in terms of the formation of hip hop within the socio-political context of the time - it's the best I've read. It's really fascinating tracing the Jamaican roots of political struggle in reggae music right through to the gang warfare in the Bronx and LA and all the music/culture that surrounds that.cheeseandbaconturnov, bones_howe, theShipment, and Thought_Dreams this'd this
yeah, this is a great book
I read this in conjunction with How the beatles destroyed rock and roll, and there were similar dsicussion in both
Paul Edwards' 'How To Rap: The Art and Science of the Hip-Hop MC'
is really really great reading. i guess its not quite what youre looking for in terms of chronicling loads of hip hop biographies but theres loads of great in depth interviews with pretty much everyone considered important. for a genre with such a diverse amount of individuals all considered really essential i guess it'd be hard to find a direct equivalent compared to, for example, OBCBYL where 80s american indie rock has more easily identifiable set of really important artists. but if youre looking for a pretty essential book about why hip hop is so important with loads of great first-hand information i'd definitely reccommend How To Rap. (its not an instruction manual)
All of the the books mentioned above are really great
Especially Can't Stop, Won't Stop and Ego Trip's Book Of Rap Lists.
For a good reference book, the updated Rough Guide To Hip Hop is pretty good. Not hugely in depth but detailed enough. It's by Peter Shapiro who knows his stuff and writes well.
For really geeking out, 'Check The Technique' by Brian Coleman is awesome
Basically an oral history of the making of some of the most classic hip hop LPs. One chapter per album, all with major input from the people involved. Really in depth and interesting. Is heavily skewed towards the years 87-97, but if you are interested in albums from that time would totally recommend it
^came here to say 'Check the Technique'
Halfway through and really enjoying it - serious detail, but not offputting
- bones_howe this'd this
Rap is though.
Edan - Fumbling Over Words that Rhyme
Quite nicely done.
Has anyone read Prodigy's autobiography?
Seems like it could be quite interesting, but I wondered if anyone here could vouch for it?
Mehodor read it and loved it.
I still have it in my shopping cart, just need to purchase.
Also added to my Amazon wishlist
That said, I've had books on that list for three years so that doesn't add up to much.
It's Not About A Salary
had many fans back in the day. seems to be long out of print and going for a fortune on Amazon; used copies from £26, new copies from £534.11!
I was meaning to start this exact thread
Think I'll purchase that Can't Stop book.
SUB THREAD: If considering the same criteria, does anyone know of a good book for jazz?
have gun will travel by ronin ro
its mainly about the rise of death row records,the ensuing hip hop wars and its messy violent end.although not a full history of rap it covers just about all the 1990's heavy hitters.

I have driven by Lawson-Fenning for years and finally stopped in last week to check out their selection of furniture. Have I been missing out! Each vignette in the store includes beautiful rich woods, vintage pieces and custom furniture. They even make their own terrariums. However, by far, my favorite furniture piece is their Roll Arm Sofa. It is very unique and chic.
The Lawson-Fenning line of furniture is made locally in Southern California and uses high quality materials and sustainable woods. The line even uses recycled or fallen wood upon request. The furniture is a mix of traditional and modern aesthetics and details. All the pieces in the line are meant to be mixed and live in harmony with each other.

Car Review
2010 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti: Overview
Pros: Tremendous acceleration, near-perfect handling, true manual transmission
Cons: Not Ferrari's most beautiful effort, rather large, expensive
What's new: The 2010 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti was unchanged in its sixth and final model year. It was replaced for 2012 by the Ferrari FF hatchback.
The 612 Scaglietti replaced the beautiful 456 as Ferrari's 4-seat grand tourer. Only offered as a coupe, the 612 Scaglietti debuted for the 2005 model year. As Ferrari's luxury model, the 612 came with more creature comforts than the brand's other models, along with a more refined ride and driving experience.
Under the 612 Scaglietti's hood was a 5.8-liter V12 that produced 540 horsepower. A 6-speed manual, though extremely rare, was standard; most drivers opted for the brand's F1A single-clutch automatic. For the 2007 model year, Ferrari offered a glass-roofed Sessanta model which was limited to just 60 units.
The 2010 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti started around $314,000. That's a huge increase from its original base price in 2005, which was closer to $250,000. The 2010 model year also marked the arrival of Ferrari's sporty California convertible, which offered 612-level performance with a starting price of just $200,000.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
Description"As far as we know, the blue whale is the largest animal ever to have existed on the planet. Weights up to 190,000 kg (as much as 30-40 African elephants) have been recorded. They are also among the fastest swimmers, reaching a speed of 48 km per hour when chased. They eat 6-7 tons of krill, a small, shrimp-like crustacean, per day, by gulp-feeding. With each gulp, the whale's throat stretches along a series of grooves, enlarging the mouth's capacity, then the water is expelled and the krill remain, trapped by baleen plates. The blue whale's voice is the deepest of any animal's, and their vocalizations carry for thousands of miles underwater, at frequencies below the range of human hearing. This may enable them to communicate across oceans, and may be a sonar-like imaging system that helps a whale map its location relative to distant landmasses or deep underwater terrain. They can live for 80-90 years, and for centuries, blues whale were safe from humans because of their sheer size, but whalers on modern ships armed with harpoon guns drove them almost to extinction. They are protected now, but there is no sign yet that they are recovering from over-exploitation."

Breakfast Hostess Gift | Banana Bread and Honey Butter
It is important for us to be as gracious of a guests as you are when you're the one hosting the party. When you're invited to someone's home for dinner or a party, it is always appropriate to bring a hostess gift - the obvious choices being flowers and wine.
When I'm hosting a party, while I appreciate these sort of gifts, I've already arranged my flowers and have selected wine to serve. So when I'm the one giving the hostess gift, I like to think about what the host would really appreciate- something she can look forward to enjoying after the party is over.
Because your host has likely spent a great deal of time and energy preparing for the party, breakfast the next day is probably the last thing from her mind. Wouldn't it be so nice for her to wake up tomorrow morning after an evening of entertaining to a special treat waiting for her in the kitchen? Create a breakfast basket filled with homemade (or home-packaged!) goodies like moist and dense banana bread, creamy whipped honey butter and a special blend of your favorite gourmet coffee beans.
Banana Bread (recipe here)
Butter, softened
Sea Salt
Ground Coffee Beans
Monogrammed Small Napkin
Berry Basket
parchment paper
Kitchen Twine
kraft coffee bag
Printed Labels
small glass jar with lid
Wrap the banana bread in parchment paper, then tie it with kitchen twine or string to secure the ends.
To make honey butter, place softened butter in a mixer with the paddle attachment. For every stick of butter, add 3 tablespoons of honey and a pinch of sea salt. Whip together on high for 3 minutes. Put the butter in a glass jar fitted with a lid. Store in the refrigerator.
Grind coffee and scoop it into a small craft paper bag with a secure folded top. Add a printed label for a special touch - click here to see my custom printed labels.
To package, use a small basket or box lined with a kitchen towel or Monogrammed Linen Napkin (click here to see my favorites from my store).

That is truly a beautiful gift! Great idea!ReplyDelete
- Jenny9:22 AM
Meg- I used Adobe InDesign for these, but I think you can easily use Word. They are labels from Paper-Source (link added to the post above). They have templates you can download for each type of label... making it really easy and quick to make labels. I'm planning to do a post for 'how-to' labels soon!ReplyDelete
This is one of my favorite hostess gifts to give and receive! When I host a party I also like to send my guests home with a little something and I have done mini loaves of banana or pumpkin bread with a small package of coffee for each guest...perfect morning after the late night party breakfast! Can't wait to try the honey butter recipe.ReplyDelete
Jenny - another quick question. I am recently engaged and I plan on doing the centerpieces myself. I am recycling old jars of all shapes and sizes and plan on putting rustic ribbon around them - jute, burlap, etc. with subtle stitching. Any suggestions on where I can get quality, classic ribbon? Paper Source has a great "Cement Stripe Cotton Ribbon" that is along the lines I am thinking about. I also love the "Blue Jute Webbing" from burlapfabric.com. Are there any other websites you can think of?? THANKS!! Suggestions from others are welcome!!ReplyDelete

In my opinion rule exempting broker-dealers from the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 when offering fee-based brokerage programs should be WITHDAWN and not amended.
I am sure that the rule is harmful to consumers by creating two different standards of conduct for persons offering financial planning services: a higher fiduciary standard for registered investment advisers and a lower one under NASD suitability rules. The rule should not exempt brokers from being required to disclose conflicts of interest in connection with the offer of financial planning services, brokers should disclose all conflicts of interest in all transactions.

State Legislators Line Up to Support the Affordable Care Act
Over 450 legislators from all 50 states and the District of Columbia will today announce their joint filing of an amicus (friend of the court) brief with the U.S. Supreme Court supporting the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, the 2010 federal health care reform law. Representing New York in the brief are Assembly Health Committee Chair Richard N. Gottfried, State Senator Gustavo Rivera, and 23 other New York State legislators.
"The challenge to the Affordable Care Act now before the Supreme Court has a lot more to do with politics than with the Constitution," said Assembly Member Gottfried. "The Affordable Care Act has been upheld by judges from across the ideological spectrum, and it is working for families across the country."
Leaders from the Working Group of State Legislators for Health Reform, Progressive States Network, and the Constitutional Accountability Center will hold a nationwide press event in support of the law today, January 11, at 3pm EST. Information for joining the conference call is at the end of this release.
According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, the number of young adults who are uninsured has dropped by 2.5 million since September 2010, when the Affordable Care Act began allowing children up to age 26 to remain under a parents' insurance coverage. More than 150,000 of those young adults are New York residents.
The 23 New York State legislators joining Assembly Member Richard Gottfried and State Senator Gustavo Rivera in signing on to the Supreme Court brief are: Assembly Members Thomas Abinanti, Michael Benedetto, James Brennan, Kevin Cahill, Jeffrey Dinowitz, Sandra Galef, Vanessa Gibson, Deborah Glick, Rhoda Jacobs, Ellen Jaffee, Charles Lavine, Barbara Lifton, Alan Maisel, Joan L. Millman, Felix Ortiz, Crystal Peoples-Stokes, Nick Perry, Peter Rivera, Robert Rodriguez, Linda Rosenthal, Michelle Schimel, Eric Stevenson, and David Weprin.
"The ACA has helped over four million seniors with the cost of prescription drugs, and insurance companies can no longer deny coverage to children with pre-existing conditions, drop your coverage because you get sick, or limit the amount of coverage you can receive in a lifetime," said Gottfried.
"While New York had enacted protections for young adults and those with pre-existing conditions prior to the Affordable Care Act, the federal legislation will provide additional benefits for more New Yorkers. That's why 24 of my colleagues and I are defending the Affordable Care Act by signing this brief, and why we will continue to work in the coming weeks, months, and years to implement the law in the most effective way for our state," Gottfried said.
The show of support for the Affordable Care Act in New York was part of a larger demonstration of support for the law across the nation this week, as over 450 state legislators representing all 50 states and the District of Columbia signed on to the Amicus Brief defending the law. The brief will be filed Friday, January 13 and was prepared in conjunction with the Working Group of State Legislators for Health Reform (a national group of state legislators working to advance health reform and implement the Affordable Care Act), Progressive States Network, and the Constitutional Accountability Center.
WHEN: 3pm EST, Wednesday, January 11
The Working Group of State Legislators for Health Reform is a national group of state legislators focused on advancing health reform at the state level including the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
The Progressive States Network is a non-partisan, non-profit organization that supports the work of progressive state legislators around the country and works to advance state policies that deliver on the issues that matter to working families.
The Constitutional Accountability Center is a think tank, public interest law firm, and action center dedicated to fulfilling the progressive promise of the Constitution's text and history.

BOSTON — Bruins defensman Shane Hnidy played just 4:13 tonight, but his health might've been one of the few bright spots in the 3-1 loss.
Hnidy, who played just three regular-season games, took the roster spot vacated by Zdeno Chara for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series with Montreal at TD Garden.
There's probably no lineup hole bigger than one left by Chara. And Hnidy's obviously not expected to pick up the slack.
He is, however, expected to throw his weight around and stay healthy. He did just that by sticking up for teammate Rich Peverley after the forward was hit awkwardly by James Wisniewski. Hnidy picked up his first fighting major since his return to action and since last fall's shoulder surgery.
"Yeah, I didn't see [the hit] clear. I knew his back was turned," said Hnidy. "And just trying to, you know we need certain times to get things going and it's been a while. So just trying to do anything to get a spark."
"It's good," Hnidy continued when asked about the shoulder. "It didn't tear, so I'm good."
