The world has always been full of random verbal noise. However, starting about a century ago, the volume seems to have steadily increased.
A poem, on the other hand, is surrounded by a kind of silence, like a town just after a very heavy snowfall. This is because a poem is a kind of distillation - the precipitation or extraction of an essence (from within the noise).
The judges & critics of poetry should be on the lookout for these distillations. They are the actual poetic record or canon (recognized or not) of their times.
I think a poem is an act of balance, equilibrium - a conjunction of opposites. Both. Unique and common; original and final; personal and universal; individual and representative. It is both sui generis and an example of a class, a period. It is new and old. It is experimental and traditional.
We laugh and deprecate anthologies, canons. But they are part of the critical and self-critical labors of the culture from which they emerge. The point is to form your own true canon out of all these efforts - and in spite of them.
A poem, as an act of equilibrium, is also a display of a positive kind of disinterestedness. In this sense, a poem should show, not tell; imagine, not lecture. If it is going to lecture - and some poems must - it should provide authentic poetic evidence (in terms of both style and exempla) for its arguments. A poem should reveal something - and let the readers exert themselves (to draw their own conclusions).

Second 'Person of Interest' in Colorado Shooting Was Only 'Associate' of Suspect James Holmes (VIDEO)
The involvement of a second suspect in the Colorado shooting has been discounted after police confirmed that another person who was taken in for questioning was only an associate, and was not believed to be linked to the shooter, James Holmes.
Friday morning's massacre occurred as Batman fans packed into an Aurora theater for the opening screening of the "Dark Knight Rises." The suspect, James Holmes, opened fire on the crowd of fans as they watched opening scenes of the movie; killing 12 people and leaving 58 others injured.
While early reports suggested that a second person may have been questioned in relation to the case, prompting some to believe that a second suspect may have been involved, new police statements have confirmed Holmes as the only suspect at this point.
The Aurora police released a statement to that effect: "There are multiple unconfirmed and inaccurate news reports about a second suspect. In regards to those reports: An associate of Holmes was interviewed this evening. There is no reason to believe that he is involved. Further details of this investigation will not be released at this time."
The "associate" of Holmes was questioned Saturday night, however, it appears that he was just the last classmate of Holmes left to be questioned by police and could not be found originally, Fox News has reported.
Police have obtained a cell phone and computer from Holmes' apartment in the hope of gathering more information about how long the suspect had been planning the attack. On Friday police had arrived at Holmes' apartment only to discover that a number of explosive devices and booby-traps had been set up within the unit, blocking the initial entry into the space.
Authorities have claimed that there were enough explosive devices in the apartment to create a large fireball, potentially destroying the entire floor of the block of apartments Holmes' residence is located on. However, they were successfully able to deactivate all explosives and have now gained full access to the apartment. The investigation into the tragic shootings continues.

- "Every soldier knows that war is more than arms and armor, every warrior carries an image of impending victory in his heart. When the image shatters, to be replaced by defeat, he is beaten. But sometimes a warrior receives assistance from an unexpected source, an in-rush of light, blasting away his fear and despair, releasing new inner strength! Yes, a war is much more than arms and armor. Half of every conflict is the will to win. We are Jedi. We must recognize that the will to win, and the power of war, are given sometimes by the dark side. And sometimes, as dawn throws back the night, victory is given…by the light!"
- ―Arca Jeth, while implementing Jedi battle meditation
Battle meditation was a Force ability that considerably boosted the morale, stamina, and overall battle prowess of an individual's allies while simultaneously reducing the opposition's combat-effectiveness by eroding their will to fight.
Battle meditation was the ability to use the Force to coordinate allies and even entire fleets of ships, allowing them to perform at maximum efficiency, acting as a single entity with the ability to counter every enemy move quickly and effectively. Though ideal for meditating large-scale conflicts, battle meditation was also effective when employed for the benefit of one's comrades in small skirmishes, attacks, and duels. It could also be used to simultaneously demoralize the opponents, reducing their combat effectiveness. Battle meditation was used to influence armies and fleets to win battles and even wars.[2]
Light side usersEdit
- "With sufficient concentration, a Jedi—such as you or I—can strengthen the hopes of our allies and heighten the fears of our enemies…thus, what the armies know in their hearts must become true… because they believe it so strongly."
- ―Odan Urr
This Force power was first made famous by the ancient Jedi Masters Odan-Urr, Arca Jeth, and Nomi Sunrider. Odan-Urr used it during the Unification Wars,[23] while Arca Jeth used it with great success during the Beast Wars of Onderon.[24] Being naturally adept, Nomi Sunrider applied battle meditation in nearly every conflict she participated in, such as the Freedon Nadd Uprising,[25] and the Battle of Koros Major.[26] It was also practiced by Bastila Shan during the Jedi Civil War and the Battle of Rakata Prime, with impressive results.[15]
During the New Sith Wars, the Ithorian Jedi Master Worror Dowmat used battle meditation to bolster the strength of Jedi Lord Valenthyne Farfalla and the Army of Light, as they fought against Lord Kaan's Brotherhood of Darkness. Dowmat also assisted his Jedi companions with his Battle meditation when they confronted Darths Bane and Zannah on the planet Tython, ten years after the war's end. Dowmat's meditation provided the invigoration necessary for Johun Othone, Sarro Xaj, Echani Jedi Raskta Lsu, and Farfalla to contend with Darth Bane, who was himself being fueled by his dark side rage.[6]
Grand Master Yoda was also quite skilled, having used battle meditation during his Mission to Vjun to empower the actor pretending to be him. With a mere touch, Yoda was able to saturate Palleus Chuff with feelings of hope and mission success, while simultaneously eliminating feelings of doubt and despair from the little man's spirit.[27] Yoda also successfully meditated the conflict during the Battle of Kashyyyk.[28] Both Yarael Poof and Oppo Rancisis used it in the Stark Hyperspace War and the Clone Wars respectively.[11][12] During the Clone Wars, Etain Tur-Mukan was able to encourage and calm troopers during the conflicts she took part in, suggesting that she had the potential to use Battle Meditation or some lesser form of this ability.
Luke Skywalker studied the use of battle meditation at some point after the Battle of Endor from a book he found.[29] His sister Leia also studied battle meditation from books recovered on Ossus, and employed her new ability against the reborn Darth Sidious.[17]
Jedi Masters T'ra Saa and K'Kruhk each utilized battle meditation during the final battles of the Second Imperial Civil War, including the Jedi's loss at Taivas[14] and its victory at Coruscant[9] respectively.
A focused version of battle meditation was known as Force meld. Unlike battle meditation, which could influence both the Force-sensitives and non-Force-sensitives of both sides, Force meld concentrated on coordinating and improving the Force-sensitives of the user's side.[2]
Dark side usersEdit
- "In the old days, the Dark Lords of the Sith built meditation chambers in their warships. In the heat of battle, they would seal themselves in the chambers…and direct powerful visualizations upon the conflict that raged all around them."
- ―Odan Urr
Battle meditation was not merely a province of the light side; powerful dark side users could twist the wills of their commanded armies not through subtle influence, but with total domination. This perversion of battle meditation was called Sith Battle Coordination by the Dark Lady Lumiya. It was later identified by Darth Caedus as "Sith Battle meditation".[1]
When Nomi Sunrider asked of her Master if those who use the dark side were able to command battle meditation, Odan-Urr replied that indeed they could, but it was very rare.[20] Lord Skere Kaan also used Sith battle meditation during the New Sith Wars in opposition to the superior prowess of a female Cerean Jedi Master.[8] One thousand years later, Grand Admiral Nial Declann was a master of Sith battle meditation, using it to great effect during the Battle of Endor. Following Emperor Palpatine's death, the shock of the sudden removal of this influence threw the Imperial Navy into chaos and allowed the Rebel fleet to defeat them.[5] Joruus C'baoth, the insane clone guardian of Wayland's Mount Tantiss, increased the victory percentage of Grand Admiral Thrawn's armies by forty percent via dark battle meditation.[16]
When Darth Caedus ascended to Dark Lord of the Sith, he soon found out that within his mind he could coordinate and direct battle into whatever outcome he so desired. He would use a meditation chair on board his personal star destroyer to amplify his powers. Caedus' early uses of the art were poor, as his first attempts only resulted in him being able to see the battle unfolding in his mind, not being able to directly influence it.[30] When he tried to dominate the wills of his subordinates via the Force he found that they were not so easily subjugated, and reacted with hostility to his psychic intrusion. His powers were greatly augmented by Alema Rar as he attempted to lay siege to Kashyyyk, and what seemed like a battle lost became a victory for the Alliance.[1] Caedus practiced regularly (he had plenty of opportunity since his early time as a Sith was heavily engrossed in war), and his proficiency became much stronger. Caedus would Flow-walk into the immediate future to see the next battle, and then return to the present to directly influence the battle to bring about the ends he desired. He shortly thereafter gave up the use of his meditation chair upon its destruction by Luke Skywalker and meditated battle directly from the bridge of the Anakin Solo.[31] During the Second Battle of Fondor, Darth Caedus used battle meditation to dominate the collective wills of Fondor's ground forces, causing them to doubt their chances of victory and drop the planet's defensive shielding.[32]
Behind the scenesEdit
The use and effect of battle meditation was first described in the Star Wars expanded universe by Timothy Zahn in Heir to the Empire, when Grand Admiral Thrawn explains to Joruus C'baoth and Gilad Pellaeon his own theory as to why the Battle of Endor was lost; he believed that Palpatine employed the power to an unwise degree, taking such close control of the Imperial forces as to make them puppets, almost incapable of fighting on their own when his influence was suddenly removed (the use of battle meditation at Endor was later attributed to Grand Admiral Nial Declann instead of Palpatine).
The term "battle meditation" is first used in the 2003 video game Knights of the Old Republic and the power is a plot element rather than an ability usable by any of the player characters. Because the character Bastila is one of the only Jedi in the galaxy who has mastered the ability, she is a vital weapon to be used by either the Republic or the Sith.
In Knights of the Old Republic, the power can only be used when the user is in deep concentration, and not in the midst of combat. This contradicts earlier sources, where Nomi Sunrider is shown to use battle meditation while fighting.
In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, battle meditation is a usable ability by any of the playable characters who are Force-sensitive. Using the power grants a bonus to attack rolls, damage, Will saves and increases Vitality Points Regeneration to the player's entire party. At higher levels, it can also impair enemies. If mastered, the power also has a story-based use, as it can be used by the Jedi Exile in order to turn the tide of the Onderon throne room battle to the favor of Queen Talia's or General Vaklu's forces, depending on who the player has allied with.
In The Force Unleashed video game, battle meditation was an upgradeable Force Talent. It decreased the amount of time it takes to charge Force powers.

A new trend is slippy sliding round the S-Africanland advertising ideas adoption curve y'ulz. Am HUGE proud of Ogilvy CT for starting it. Y'ulz are geniuses. This trend is called:
"Humiliate a faded international celeb via writing them into an ad".
Loves it. Can't wait 2 humiliate my own faded international celeb. Who d'yulz thanks it should be?
Which faded international celeb would y'ulz like 2 see humiliated?
***UPDATE**** Quick fact-correction here, Jupiter actually started this trend (via Louis Gosset Jnr Snr Mr bro). Sorry y'als, 4got about that. Am HUGE proud of y'ulz for starting this trend. Y'uls are what legends R made of. Y'ulz can watch one of The First Humiliations (there were 5 involving this faded celeb – they went all out) here:
A very good-looking and smart and amazingly awesome hot bro just informed me that ACTUALLY, Jupies didn't invent this trend. Whomever does the advertising for Silver Sands Casino and humiliated faded Swedish 'star' Dolph Lundgren via writing him into their advertising invented this trend. Does anyone know what agency does Silversands? Does anyone know who the un-named genius is? Don't worry Ogilvy / Jupies – y'alls are still early adopters for 'copying it before the masses copy it'. Still respect / love y'all.

I have to make yet another quiz and I am COMPLETELY lost.
I have to make use of classes, so one java file that uses the class file of another java code that tells the other what to do.
I have one class file containing:
/** Rectangle class, phase 3 Under construction! */ public class FillInBlank { private String question; private String answer; private String cans; // correct ans private String gans; // given ans /** Constructor */ public FillInBlank(String Q, String A) // Question and Answer { question = Q; cans = A; } public String getQuestion() { return question; } public String getcans() { return cans; } public String getgans() { return gans; } public void setans(String correctAns) { cans = correctAns; } public boolean check() { if (gans.equals(cans)) return true; else return false; } //needs setter for given ans }
Then I have another java file that has the actual quiz in it but I am SO lost of where to go from here
import java.util.Scanner; public class HW7 { public static void main(String[] args) { String input; Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in); FillInBlank Q1 = new FillInBlank("What programming lang?","java"); FillInBlank Q2 = new FillInBlank("what command makes summary","javadoc"); System.out.println(Q1.getQuestion()); input = keyboard.nextLine(); }
How do I get a user's answer and how do I output if it's correct or not.
I am sorry if I am being very vague but to be honest not even I understand what my professor wants this week.

I am still searching for that elusive program, the one that does mass file renaming based on the tags in mp3 or ogg files. I know, I am holding out on a very long shot.
I should've just written it myself. The time it would have taken me to learn to program and build it the way I wanted … well, it probably would be done by now. And it would be better than this one. 🙄
I've come close though, with the recommendation of dagger, as a Python renaming tool that uses "conventional" variables to match the information stored in music files.
For all practical purposes it's just as functional and useful as something like EasyTag, and requires a mere fraction of the support libraries.
It'll search for missing fields, set fields en masse, normalize titles, recurse subdirectories and so forth and so on. Most everything you could want is probably here.
My complaint? Well … it's not really an application in the way something like wyrd or irssi or moc are applications.
It hasn't got an interface — a text user interface, so to speak. It's just a command line tool.
And that's fine, I suppose. Some of the best gadgets out there are simple one-line tools that start and finish with no more than a few letters and a flag or two.
Still. … 😐
P.S.: Lucky me, there's a prebuilt deb package. Ah, the luxury of being a Debian user. By the way, you'll still need vorbis-tools if you want it to actually do something to your ogg files. 😉

Having been months since we've seen any WP7 games, you should (re)acquaint yourself with the Xbox game Shoot 1UP. It's fast, it's furious (mostly as it's running at 10x the speed on a WP7 emulator), and it looks awesome.
The emulator is shown running a "smoke test," which helps developers check for memory leaks and other issues, with all the artwork and gameplay being loaded at 10x the normal speed. Below the video of the emulator I've pasted a video of Shoot 1UP playing at normal speed on the Xbox, so you can see what the true gameplay is like—and what to expect from the WP7 port.
Developer MommysBestGames wrote in the YouTube description for the game that they're "currently targeting to release the game with the launch of the phone," and that not only will the graphics be improved for Windows Phone 7, there'll also be a "special game play mode just for that platform, and a new playable ship." It's always a good idea to give punters an additional reason to download a game they might already have on a different platform. [Mommy's Best Games via Windows Phone Mobility Digest]

But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law…
—Galatians 4:4 (NIV)
Samuel was a schoolmaster in a small city in central China. One night he overheard his head teacher praying, "Lord, please help Samuel to love his son. It's so sad the way he treats him so cruelly, cutting him off, refusing to spend time in the home, ashamed of his crippled boy. Lord, we don't know what goes on in the mind of his son, but we do know he is very sad. His wife says the boy weeps all the time when the father comes in and leaves. He may not know much, but he does know he's not loved, and doesn't know why."
Deeply moved by the prayer, Samuel went home late that night and sat beside his sleeping son for hours, just stroking his hair and whispering, "Forgive me."
Every night after that, Samuel stayed late at his son's bedside, reading him portions of the Bible—a book he had found at school. When he had finished a page, he would signal to the boy, who loved to help by turning the page. They felt warm together. Soon his wife joined them for the readings, and the family grew closer and closer.
Samuel sensed new feelings of love well up inside him as he read the truths of the Bible. He felt a power to love his son more and more. That's when tragedy struck. His boy was run over by a truck and badly injured. There was nothing the medics could do. They took him home to nurse him through to the end. Christians came and prayed for his healing, but the boy continued to deteriorate. By this time Samuel was praying to God, and crying out for Him to spare his son's life. But in December, after a sudden power failure, the boy finally died.
Samuel asked the Christians to hold a service for his boy. A pastor came and prayed, saying, "Lord, you knew this boy was going to die. How kind of you to reconcile father and son before he died. Thank you for your work of grace. And we thank you for your eternal work too. You watched your son, helpless in flesh, die and grow cold—all because you knew we could not love you otherwise, as we are so blind in our selfishness."
Samuel pondered the meaning of this prayer. He didn't understand it all. But he did get this: God had lost a son too. Unlike Samuel, God lost a son He had cherished, a son that was perfect. How much harder for God. He went to church the following Sunday in a nearby community where they were celebrating an event unknown to Samuel, called "Christmas."
Samuel testified on that very Sunday, "I see that I see that I went through what God went through. He had a Son He loved, and watched Him die that life may come to everyone. I too had a son, but I did not love him. Then God broke my heart, so that I could love him. Then He took him.
"But I have life now, life that will last so long that one day I know I will be reunited with my son. And he will not be lame. And we will fellowship together, not in freezing rooms of fear and pain, but on beautiful planets of peace and harmony. I can love again, and this is the joy of Christmas for me. Even in my grief, with my son gone, I can love again. We can all love again!"
RESPONSE: Today I will express my love for God even in the midst of any pain and loss.
PRAYER: Pray for people who have suffered deeply and may feel God cannot forgive them.

In light of the recent release of Paleo Girl [1] – a new Primal book that helps teens navigate the crazy world of flawed dietary and fitness advice, and get a jump start on healthy living – I'm republishing this article I originally wrote and published in December 2011. If you want the next generation to grow up in a healthier world, share this article with your friends and family. Let's give the young adults in our lives the knowledge they need to be successful!
Dear youngsters,
You're going through some difficult times, no doubt. I've been in your shoes before. I've been a kid dealing with basically all the same stuff you have to contend with. I've been there.
Your hormones [2] are probably (depending on age, gender, and exposure to attractive members of opposite/same sex) either raging, simmering, fomenting, budding, and/or swelling.
Your legs and arms may be growing at disproportionate rates, leaving you feeling like a stranger in your own body.
That cute new guy whom you planned on eventually marrying has a funny last name, which just won't work with the names of the kids you've chosen.
You just discovered the Beatles, and you totally want to tell everyone about it, but they're all into top 40 stuff. You just can't relate.
Your opinions on everything, who your best friends are, your relationship with your parents, and your post-high school plans change rapidly from day to day to day. And not superficial changes, but real, soul-rending ones.
Everything's in flux, but (or ergo?) everything's exciting. Everything's the end of the world, or the start of something new and magnificent. In short, you're young, the world is big, and you want to make the most of it all.
But I have a suggestion for you. It's a suggestion that I wish I would have read on a computer somewhere when I was a kid (of course, that would have required me waiting an hour for Al Gore to patch me through on the ARPANET on a computer the size of a room):
Consider going Primal [3]. Don't wait until you're old, hurting, and full of regrets to seize control of your health. Take it from someone who did wait until he was old(er) and hurting to conquer his health issues. You don't want to wait. If you do, you'll still likely make it, but you'll miss out on valuable time.
I'm not even going to say you have to go 100% hardcore Primal [4]– although it certainly wouldn't hurt. I'm just saying it would be a fantastic idea for you to become aware of this stuff while you're still young and on the cusp of the prime of your life.
Are you a teen who wants to be strong, fit, and healthy for the rest of your life? Read this: http://ctt.ec/EP9L0+
The way I see it, if you don't, you're squandering a golden opportunity to extend the prime of your life through, well, the rest of it. Right now, I feel like I'm at my best. I honestly do. Mentally, emotionally, physically, professionally, I'm at a place where I wouldn't trade places with myself 20 years ago. I was fit, doing triathlons, coming off of a strong career as a marathoner, but I was missing true health. Thanks to going Primal, I'm better than ever.
Now, think of what I just said. I'm 58. I'm probably older than your dad. I've lived over half a century, and yet I can:
Keep up with guys younger than half my age in high intensity Ultimate Frisbee [5].
Hike [6] for twelve hours on an empty stomach.
Produce pretty decent content for a popular blog on a daily basis.
Write books [7] and develop supplement lines that people actually buy and seem to really like.
Pass incredible quality time with my beautiful wife [8] whenever I want.
Take a day off just to relax with the family if I so desire.
Spend half the day stand up paddle boarding [9].
Take my shirt off without feeling self conscious [10] about my sagging gut and man-boobs.
Bound up flights of stairs because it's easier and less time consuming than walking up them and scoff at escalators.
Feel mentally "there" and "on" at all times (okay, maybe the morning coffee [11] helps in this regard, sometimes).
The thing is, these aren't magical or fantastical accomplishments. I think these are extremely basic things any human should be able to expect out of themselves, albeit with minor variations. Not everyone is going to blog or play Ultimate, but everyone should be able to find creative satisfaction and engage in physical activity whenever they want without worrying out getting injured, something hurting, or fatiguing too quickly.
And I'm just some old dude who made a ton of mistakes early on and paid dearly for them… and I'm still doing pretty darn good. I'm not the only one, either. Many, if not most, of our success stories [12] on this blog come from people who came back – better than ever – from poor health caused by making the wrong choices based on the wrong information in their younger years. Learn from their and from my mistakes so you don't have to make them yourself.
Just imagine where you'll be at 58 if you stay abreast of this health and fitness [13] and nutrition [14] and stress [15] stuff starting from an early age. Just imagine how ahead of the game you'll be, and stay for as long as you want.
Honestly, though? There's a little selfishness going on here, too. I'm convinced that the earlier you commit to a Primal lifestyle, the greater the rewards later on in life, and I really want to see it happen. I know we're never going to get anything close to a big study on the Primal lifestyle funded to test this idea out, but if we can convince a host of youngsters to start young – and stick with it – I think we'd see some remarkable things happen.
No, I'm not talking about forging Olympians or NBA stars or anything like that, necessarily. I'm referring to the promotion of a generation of healthy, happy, robust, fit, attractive, and most importantly of all, self-sufficient people forging their own paths toward health and wellness. I'm imagining a world where doctors flourish as the skilled technicians they are, meeting acute challenges without having to focus so much on the chronic stuff that they're often unprepared to handle and their patients are unwilling to handle. Where people take responsibility for their own health, and it's not a struggle or an ordeal, but rather just second nature. Heck, maybe it'll even be a generation for whom this Primal stuff [16] isn't so crazy at all.
So, teens, tots, children, whoever (heck, even parents) – give it an honest shot. You don't have to give up hanging out with friends or even grabbing pizza after a game sometimes. Embrace the 80/20 principle [17] and just learn to make the right choices most of the time and understand that humans don't come broken out of the box. That even though observing the greater population at large might lead you to the opposite conclusion, people are by and large born primed for excellent health.
Now go. Get healthy while you're still healthy, while you're still unbroken. It's always easier – and more effective – to keep a new knife sharp than to restore a chipped, rusty, neglected old one.
Thanks for reading, everyone, and please share your advice with the younger amongst us in the comment board below.

Apple has pulled together 434 LTE patents in order to counter a legal threat from Samsung, according to reports on Tuesday.
Samsung has vowed to sue the bejesus out of Apple if, as expected, if unveils an LTE-enabled iPhone 5 during the launch event now confirmed for September 12.
Anticipating this, Apple has been acquiring and developing enough LTE patents to combat the legal challenge, according to the Chosun Ilbo website.
The company had no such patents last year, but now owns 318, according to the site, 44 of which it developed itself.
Patent enforcers
Apple also owns a majority stake in the 'patent enforcement firm' Rockstar Bidco, which has another 116 at its disposal. That brings Apple's total to 434.
Samsung, on the other hand, has a whopping 819 LTE patents and we're pretty sure the company's lawyers are sharpening their claws as we speak, following last month's legal mauling.
Are y'all ready for the next round of Apple vs. Samsung? Coming to a courtroom near California.

"Honestly, the real answer is 'it depends.' Marking election systems as critical infrastructure might help us begin to make them more secure, but not necessarily. And federalizing election systems could make us less secure by creating fewer points of failure. But overall, [the Electronic Frontier Foundation] and our colleagues at Verified Voting have been sounding the alarm about insecure voting systems for a long time, pushing for real auditing of code and risk limiting audits of the results, along with warning about the insecurity of the internet as a network for voting. More must be done. Whether the step of calling it critical infrastructure will help is hard to predict, but certainly raising the profile of this issue is long overdue." – Cindy Cohn, Electronic Frontier Foundation

text: MurphyDawg Posted November 26, 2003 Name : Partagas Spanish Rosado San Agustin Size : 5 1/2 X 52 Wrapper : Rosado (er, duh) Partagas is proud to introduce a new line to its family of cigars, Partagas Spanish Rosado. The Spanish Rosado name is derived from the wrapper that is grown exclusively for General Cigar in the San Agustin Valley in Honduras. "Spanish" refers to the country of Spain's influence in Honduran history, while "Rosado" refers to the reddish hue found in each wrapper. The new Partagas Spanish Rosado offers a new, unique taste that consumers have come to expect from Partagas. The Honduran-shade wrapper offers a rich, oily appearance with a consistent dark reddish-brown color. Because of the uniqueness of the soil, the wrapper provides a spicy taste with hints of cinnamon that burns white, leaving a beautiful ash. A Connecticut Broadleaf binder with a blend of Dominican, Honduran and Mexican tobaccos combine to make this medium to full-bodied cigar a must-have for serious cigar smokers. Well it was a nice day for late November here in North-Central Ohio, nice enough in fact (a pleasant 47 and sunny) to wander out to the front porch with a good smoke. I have had one of these from a three pack partagas sampler I bought a couple of weeks ago and because of all the good stuff I heard about them I decided today was the day to try it, so i grabbed it, an nice pour of Four Roses Bourbon and headed out. Everything about this cigar was pleasant, the wrapper had this nice amber glow to it and smelled fabulous as soon as I removed the cellophane. For once I nailed the way I wanted it cut and it lit easily, and drew perfect the whole time. Initially it was very mild and creamy with almond notes everywhere, with a nice fresh oaky undertone. It drew nicely and had plenty of smoke and because it seemed packed better than the Naturales I has had from this pack it burned slowly and evenly the whole way down (which also leads me to believe I finally pegged the right balance of humidity in my humidor). About a third of way in it gained some momentum with added coffee and dark chocolate notes, and that great crisp smell of a campfire off in the distance. This was sublime, to say the least. The last third kept the cocoa and coffee notes, and started to add the white pepper and sage that I had experienced in the other partagas smokes I have had, but not nearly as strong as the brick wall I hit with the Naturales. It never stopped being pleasant. This is what a partagas cigar should taste like to me. Take the regular ones, tell them to chill out a bit, and act a bit more refined and that is what you got here. From what I can tell these are rather reasonably priced as well, so I am surely going to get more. YUMMY stuff. I have a real love hate relationship with Four Roses bourbon, when I am in the mood for it, nothing else will do, but when I am not it just doesnt impress me. Today it did not. It was underwhelming and had a sharpish finish today that I hadnt experienced much before. It was not nearly refined enough to match the cigar well. I will not pair these again.

Discussion Starter • #1 • (Edited by Moderator)
I just happen to be close by the local 4 wheel parts store during lunch and came across this new tire by BFG. It seems like a mild ATish tread but with side bitters on it. I am just curious if anyone has just recently bought these or knows someone who has them. I really want a true "hybrid" tire seeing that from March to October i dont see much of anything but concrete then hunting season begins then well I see it all. Wondering if would be a good investment over some of my other choices I have in mind. Kinda on the fence post now.

Why is Color Care Shampoo not purple?
Color Care Shampoo is not purple because it was specifically formulated to help address universal factors (i.e. color washout, damage, UV, hard water) that cause color fading.

What is the fragrance in Color Care Shampoo?
It is the same fragrance used in other Living Proof shampoos, a light scent with citrus-based notes.
Why is a UV filter important in a rinse off product like Color Care Shampoo, what is it doing?
UV filter in Color Care Shampoo is positively charged so it's substantive to hair and limits wash-off. The UV filter reduces the creation of free-radicals that can lead to damaging effects on hair and color.

David Gilman, the former Leicester teacher convicted last week of sexually assaulting a student, has been sentenced to 10-13 years in prison. Mr. Gilman. 44, was sentenced this morning in Worcester Superior Court.
Return to telegram.com for full coverage of the sentencing.
WORCESTER � A former Leicester Middle School teacher accused of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old female student was found guilty Friday afternoon.
A Worcester Superior Court jury of seven men and five women deliberated for less than three hours before convicting 44-year-old David A. Gilman of child rape aggravated by age difference and three counts of indecent assault and battery on a child by a mandated reporter.
The sexual assaults occurred at various times from Oct. 30, 2009, to on or about Dec. 14, 2009, at the school where Mr. Gilman had worked for 15 years.
Judge Peter B. Krupp revoked Mr. Gilman's $7,500 cash bail and scheduled sentencing for 9 a.m. Thursday. Mr. Gilman faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in state prison.
The former teacher, a Brookfield resident, stood stoically next to his lawyer, Michael G. Cashman, as the verdicts were announced. Judge Krupp ordered that he remain in custody without bail until the time of sentencing.
The victim and members of her family embraced and wept after learning of the jury's decision.
The victim, now 16, testified during the weeklong trial that Mr. Gilman, who was her music teacher, kissed and fondled her and engaged in unnatural sexual intercourse with her on school grounds. She said the assaults occurred in a music room and band room at the middle school.
Throughout her two days on the witness stand, the teen was asked to read from a 7,000-line transcript of Facebook conversations she said she had with Mr. Gilman. She testified that she believed she was in love with her music teacher, and the two expressed love for one another in many of the so-called �chats.�
Some were sexually explicit and included references to various sex acts.
The jury began its deliberations about 11:15 a.m. after hearing closing arguments by lawyers for the defense and prosecution and Judge Krupp's instructions on the law. The verdicts were returned shortly after 2 p.m.
In his opening statement to the jury, Mr. Cashman acknowledged that his client wrote the Facebook messages that were entered into evidence, but said the former teacher denied ever kissing the girl or touching her inappropriately.
�It was nothing more than a fantasy to him,� Mr. Cashman said of his client. He also told the jurors Mr. Gilman would take the witness stand and testify in his own defense.
Friday morning, Mr. Cashman rested his case without calling his client to the stand.
In his closing argument to the jury, Mr. Cashman said a �legal decision� was made not to have Mr. Gilman testify after the defense had heard the testimony of all of the prosecution's witnesses.
Mr. Cashman said there were �inconsistencies upon inconsistencies upon inconsistencies� in the alleged victim's accounts, and contended the prosecution had not met its burden of proving Mr. Gilman's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
The defense lawyer argued that his client and the alleged victim engaged in �virtual sex� online, but said there was no sexual activity between them in real life.
�You don't have to like him to find him not guilty. You just have to find that there is reasonable doubt,� he said.
Assistant District Attorney Courtney Sans said the evidence showed that Mr. Gilman �educated� the victim online by describing various sex acts to her and then �transferred into real life� the things he had taught the 12-year-old.
�He did far more than talk about touching her. He did touch her,� the prosecutor said.
Ms. Sans referred to a particular Facebook conversation in which Mr. Gilman told the girl, �We already broke the law.�
�If all they were doing was talking, then why would he say to her, 'We already broke the law?' � the assistant district attorney asked.

MELLON BREAKS RULE Mellon, fragile, white of face aud hair between puff* at one of his little cigarette-shapped cheroots broke a five year rule and talked publicly to newspaper men of his work and his philosophy, One of the results of which he Is proud Is that he reduced the public debt by $10,000,000,000; another that he helped to beautify Washington, for the grandiose scheme of improving the capital was under hls Jurisdiction. r Mills, cocky, somewhat hard-boiled when he is not glasslly suave, but naturally of easygoing, good natured temperament, laughed oft questions as to his own new work. It Is not new to him, really, for he has been carrying mosl of the load of the treasury work for months, particularly the monumental task of dealing with the foreign debt problem.

Obama seeks to build unity with Senate Democrats in election year
– President Barack Obama sought to build a united front with Democratic senators on Wednesday, inviting them to the White House to chat about "shared goals" heading into midterm elections in which Republicans will try to exploit Obama's woes to pick up seats.
Obama urged senators to hold off on a proposed Iran sanctions bill that many support – and which he has vowed to veto. The White House has said the legislation would derail an international deal to curb Iran's nuclear program.
But the discussion on sanctions was a small part of a meeting with a decidedly upbeat tone, a Senate aide said, speaking on background.
Obama, not known for his tendency to schmooze, sat on a stool with a microphone in the ornate East Room of the White House, giving brief remarks before taking questions from senators for about 90 minutes.
"The group discussed their shared goals for 2014, and the president expressed his desire to continue to work together to advance a number of our priorities for the year to strengthen our economy, create jobs and build the middle class," the White House said in a brief statement about the closed-door session.
The meeting comes as Obama's favorability ratings continue to languish after the botched launch of his signature Obamacare healthcare reforms last year.
Criticism of the rough start has ebbed after the White House led frantic efforts to fix the website used to sign up for health insurance. But the fallout from that and continuing attacks by Republicans on the Affordable Care Act has made Democrats nervous about the midterm elections.
A group of 16 Senate Democrats will be defending their seats in November, and Republicans are aiming to gain six seats to try to take control of the 100-seat chamber.
At a Republican briefing on Tuesday, officials told reporters they are intent on centering their campaign around Obama's weak approval numbers and the problems with Obamacare – factors they are confident will help them gain seats.
Conservative activists have backed a $2.5 million television ad campaign against three Democratic senators over Obamacare, including North Carolina Senator Kay Hagan.
Republicans have also sought to highlight examples of divisions between Obama and Democratic lawmakers. For example, they publicized that Hagan chose to stay in Washington on Wednesday instead of traveling to her home state of North Carolina with Obama, who was there to talk about manufacturing.
Obama has had trouble working with Congress, but has beefed up his White House staff with people known for expertise in nurturing strong relationships on Capitol Hill.
He wants to press Congress to boost the minimum wage – a mission that polls well, casting Democrats in a favorable light relative to Republicans, who are likely to kill the measure because they control the House of Representatives.
But Obama and his top aides have acknowledged that they are unlikely to get major legislation through the divided Congress.
Obama has brought in John Podesta, a chief of staff to former President Bill Clinton, to help the White House advance actions he can take without Congressional approval.
Those plans will be highlighted in Obama's State of the Union address on January 28.

Firefox full review
The latest version of IE (Internet Explorer) is here at last, offering a taster of how the internet landscape is going to change as we step into the era of Windows Vista. And as Mozilla eagerly removes the wraps from version 2.0 of IE's fierce rival, Firefox, we couldn't resist seeing how the browsers compare.
While Firefox 1.5 was released only a year ago, IE hasn't received a major overhaul in five years. You can't miss its improved user interface, with tabbed browsing, integrated search and newsfeed support. And Microsoft has added an antiphishing tool and boosted IE7's security.
Firefox 2.0 offers no radical changes – a hint that there wasn't much wrong with 1.5 to begin with. A built-in antiphishing tool makes its debut appearance, but most changes simply refine features that are new only to IE7. It polishes tabbed browsing, newsfeed support and add-on management. There are still sites written specifically for IE that just don't look right, but plug-ins can automatically switch your browser.
Tabbed upgrades
IE7's streamlined look resembles Vista. The buttons and address bar are compressed into two rows at the top. In default mode, standard menu options such as File, Edit or View are absent. But the browser now supports tabs and will allow you to save your session, remembering which tabs were open when you closed it down.
But Firefox's tab updates are still a step ahead. You can configure Firefox to always save your last session, while IE7 requires you to click a box every time. And Firefox allows you to reopen closed tabs via the History menu or by right-clicking on an open tab.
RSS (really simple syndication) feeds are now supported in IE. Browse to a page with an associated feed and an icon will light up. Check the headlines from that feed and, if you wish, subscribe. Unfortunately, once you've subscribed, you have no way to preview feed contents without opening it up in IE. This somewhat defeats the convenience of RSS.
Firefox 2.0 makes it easy for you to preview headlines, while the range of subscription options adds depth. You can now add a feed to a Bloglines, Google Reader or My Yahoo page.
Safer browsing
IE7 features more security fixes than Firefox, but most of these were essential. Both browsers add antiphishing features, but Firefox's default protection stops at comparing sites against a known blacklist, which is only partially effective. IE analyses sites for hallmarks of phishing. Even if the site isn't blacklisted, it should be able to detect it. And, as with Firefox, it can now clear temporary files, cookies, history files and passwords.
Firefox is a much smaller download – 5MB rather than IE's 15MB. And it uses fewer resources. With three tabs open, Firefox used 58MB of memory, while IE sucked up 80MB. Both programs upgraded fairly smoothly.
The screenshot, price, system requirements and scores to the right are for Firefox 2.0; to see details of IE7, kindly click here.
