Because there were three of us traveling, the Queen Anne room gave us girls with lots of luggage plenty of space to spread out and be perfectly comfortable. The room was wrapped I lots of natural light which provided fantastic views when waking up. The bathroom was the original bathroom that served all the second floor at one time, and we were happy we enjoyed it all to ourselves. Every morning we looked forward to a beautifully plated and cooked full breakfast and had a delightful array of nooks to choose from to sit and great the morning as we planned our adventures for the day. The staff was always accommodating in making suggestions for us to do and arrange for taxis and dinner reservations. During peak travel, this is highly recommended. Fig Restaurant is one our favorites! We also loved our carriage tour as our driver was so knowledgable and helped us get oriented quickly to know where to return for more time to peruse. The people of Charleston are very warm, friendly, and will stop and help you along the way. Once you choose to stay at Two Meeting Street Inn, you will be experiencing the very best Charleston has to offer, so why go anywhere else? We are returning to celebrate our 35th anniversary later this year and it feels like we're returning to visit our new friends.

Tried this last night with a guest list of 20 people. They loved it many said it was especially good because it was "different and delightful." We took the advice of a couple other reviewers... we added garlic, sweet chili sauce, toasted the walnuts and added a bit more tomato and parsley.
Option: Increase Parsley to 1/2 cup. Add - 1/2 tsp minced garlic, chili & garlic paste.
Try a dash of dark rum, just a little.

This hotel is top-notch. We've stayed in several 4 and 5 hotels in Morocco and this one takes the cake. For starters, everything works in our room. That's something to be grateful for considering Moroccan standards. The courtyard is lovely with all the exotic flora tagged. The pool is fantastic for a lazy poolside siesta. I loved their grilled salmon on a bed of spring vegetables on olive oil. It's location is ideal since it's just a short drive from The Square.

yea i like some of those pads on the turtle beaches headsets a lot. i was actually thinking of blowing 65 bucks on a pair x11's myself at a walmart i was at just for the ear pads to put on my akg's lol.
i think turtle beach should start selling their pads separate from each model. they only sell the HPA2/HPX ear pads which are alright
EDIT: nevermind. i found them for 1.95 an earpad! i'm sooooo ordering nowpost #3 of 301/31/11 at 8:36pmQuote:

i see even they sell the x41 earpads for same price.
post #5 of 301/31/11 at 8:48pm
Im not so sure that the x41 will fit. They look smaller than the x11.... The x11 looks like its almost the perfect fit. But I wouldn't know because I'm judging based on the pictures.

How's the sound signature? Does it change any with the X11 pads?
I've tried a few replacements pads already, the SRH840 and DT250 pads, they all changed the sound, for the worse.

Well maybe you should try them out.. only 2 bucks a pop.
I still have to get my M50's and burn them in before testing any pads...
Maybe it will be for the better, maybe for the worse. Someone has to test them..post #11 of 303/6/11 at 9:02pm

I ordered 3 sets of different pads from them. I bet they're wondering why orders for their pads have skyrocketed all of a sudden. Head-fi has a way of creating sales spikes.post #14 of 303/9/11 at 11:31pm

I didn't get the X11 by mistake I got a couple others, the X41 and X31 pads and I'm not sure which is which but I got one of them to fit though it is tight. I'm guessing the sound is about the same because I think they're made of the same material. I don't like the sound, it's a lot brighter and less bass. I could see some people liking it if that's what they want for their M50. It's pretty much what I was expecting because they are cloth pads so they don't seal the same way. They are also thicker which makes a nice soundstage effect, but the clamp is really intense. Could be remedied by flattening the pads or bending out the headband, but I'm sticking with the stock pads.
Maybe the X11 pads work better though.Return HomeBack to Forum: Headphones (full-size)

If you read the paper or watch the news, you are probably thinking that 2009 will be year to survive rather than enjoy. This doesnt have to be the case. If good beer makes you happy, there is much to look forward to, even before the first daffodils start popping up. Heres a look ahead.
Terrapins Sweet Tooth. The fourth installment in the Terrapin Beer Companys Side Project, Dos Cocoas, should be hitting stores soon. It is brewed with cocoa powder and aged on cocoa nibs. The chocolate theme continues at the 2nd Annual Wake-N-Bake Off, where participants incorporate Terrapins Wake-N-Bake Coffee Oatmeal Imperial Stout into a dessert recipe. The judging takes place at Aromas in Athens on Sunday, Jan. 25. Contact the brewery at 706-549-3377 for more information.
Duck-Rabbit in Da House. The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery founder Paul Philippon will be in Atlanta for a run of promotional events in late January. You can catch him at a beer dinner at Taco Mac in Duluth on Tuesday, Jan. 27, a 3-year vertical tasting of Duck-Rabbit barleywine at Taco Mac in Suwanee on Wednesday, Jan. 28, and a meet-and-greet at The Porter in Little 5 Points on Thursday, Jan. 29.
Leons Full Service. Brick Store owners Dave Blanchard, Mike Gallagher, and Tom Moore jump into the gastropub frenzy with their latest project, located in the old gas station just around the corner from the Brick Store vacated by Rue de Leon. The menu, under the direction of Chef Eric Ottensmeyer, will feature locally-cured meats and cheeses, fresh seafood, and exotic twists on pub food paired with the best craft beers from the U.S., Belgium, and beyond. P.E.I. mussels steamed in Wittekerke ale with lemongrass and chicken legs with stone ground grits and a dubbel-mushroom jus are some of the entrees that feature beer. Pub fries will be served with a trio of condiments that includes such off-beat notions as goat cheese fondue, curry catsup, and horseradish mayonnaise among others. This should be a great addition to the burgeoning Decatur dining scene and its already top-notch beer scene.
5 Seasons Westside. The long-promised third location of Atlantas best all-around brewpub is in the build-out phase in the BrickWorks complex at the intersection of Marietta Street and Howell Mill Road. The tanks have been moved into the basement brewery, but there's still considerable work to do to make the February opening. At least by the time the weather starts warming up, you should be able to enjoy as many as 9 different house-brewed beers on the rooftop patio with views of the Midtown skyline. On the main floor, Chef David Larkworthy will be turning out his innovative locally-source cuisine, and Beverage Manager Matt Williams, a former Dogwood Brewing Company employee and wine manager at Greens, will be whipping up signature cocktails with in-house infusions and fresh ingredients. There will also be a beer garden out back and several rooms for private functions. The best part? Plenty of free parking.
Happy New Beer. Portsmouth New Hampshires Smuttynose Brewing Company will begin distribution in Georgia soon, according to company president Peter Egelston. Ranked 27th in the world by RateBeer.com, Smuttynose produces five well-regarded year-round beers (Shoals Pale Ale, Old Brown Dog Ale, Portsmouth Lager, Finestkind IPA, and Robust Porter), along with a slate of four seasonals and its acclaimed Big Beer Series that includes everything from a maibock to a wheat wine. They also have some of the coolest labels in the industry. Look for them soon.
Other breweries rumored to be considering distribution in Georgia are two of Michigans finest, Bells Brewery in Kalamazoo and Founders Brewing Company in Grand Rapids.
Sunday Sales Redux. State Sen. Seth Harp has promised to re-introduce legislation to allow local-option referendums to permit Sunday liquor sales in Georgia, which would move the state ahead of Connecticut and Indiana in the We Understand the First Amendment race. The trump card proponents hope to play this time around is the potential tax revenue at a time when coffers are drying up. Will Sonny sell his soul for a bit of extra sin-tax money?
Stay tuned! It looks like a great year for beer!

I'm working on an app that is ideally targeted all the way down to iOS 3.2. Still, I am developing it on Lion and with the latest 5 sdk. As far as I know, I am not using any sdk 5 specific features. But:
on any devices with iOS 5 or the simulator (set to v.5), the app works just fine. on any devices with iOS 4.3 or below (and the same goes for the simulator set to v. 4.3), several things that have to do with view frames get misaligned.
For instance, here's 2 examples:
An activity indicator inside an alert view. Here's the code:
NSURLConnection *urlConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:fileRequest delegate:self];
uistatusDialog = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:(description ? NSLocalizedString(description, nil) : NSLocalizedString(@"Downloading", nil))
UIActivityIndicatorView *indicator = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleWhiteLarge];
indicator.autoresizingMask = (UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin |
[indicator startAnimating];
[uistatusDialog addSubview: indicator];
[uistatusDialog show];
[indicator release];
And here are screenshots for both simulators:iOS 5: correct iOS 4.3: misaligned
Similar things are happening with labels for which I set frames through [UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(...].
This code, for instance:
UITableViewCell * cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
reuseIdentifier:reuseIndentifier] autorelease];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray;
UILabel* mainLabel = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(70, 0, 0, 20)] autorelease];
mainLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:(UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad ? 18 : 12)];
mainLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
mainLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
mainLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
mainLabel.autoresizingMask = (UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth |
//mainLabel.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
mainLabel.tag = MAINLABEL_TAG;
Aligns just fine in iOS5, both for the simulators and devices. But in 4.3 it doesn't. I can only think that the local coordinate frame changed from one SDK to the next?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Just to pull it off for now, I did end up replacing all instances of
CGRectMake(x,y,w,h) with something along the lines of (assuming x,y,w,h are the ones I would have used for CGRectMake):
CGrect refFrame = superview.frame;
refFrame.origin.x += x;
refFrame.origin.y += y;
refFrame.size.w = w;
refFrame.size.h = h;
theObjInQuestion.frame = refFrame;
So essentially, looks like a different frame of reference is being used between SDK 5 and 4.3 at least...

Today, I jumped into a pile of snow which had built up against a wall. Turns out it wasn't snow but a pile of cement covered by an inch of snow. I now have a 3 inch cut along my leg and a sprained wrist from falling. FML

I have large wrists, and the large face, and thickness of the main body fits my wrist and body style well. This is my second Tag, my first being a Link Calibre S, and to tell you the truth, with this Carrera on my arm, I haven't had a desire to wear any other watch, including my Link. This looks sporty, yet dressy enough to wear with a suit, although the thickness of the far does/can interfere with a button sleeve if you don't have a lot of space between your wrist and the sleeve. Typically I wear my Movado with a suit because of the thin case/face, luckily, I don't wear a suit very often.
I purchased directly from Amazon and although they aren't an authorized dealer, they do offer their own warranty. I haven't had a single issue with mine, and I closely inspected it when I received it for imperfections, but everything was flawless. I do gain about 30 seconds a day, but I have been playing with placement of the watch when I sleep, as crown up, crown down, face up, face down, in a winder, etc, all can advance or subtract from the time on the watch.Read more ›
As for the quality of the watch... it is an excellent time piece. I keeps good time, for an automatic. And the aesthetic appeal is top notch... the only reason I gave it 3-stars is because of the age of the watch and it's inability to withstand light water submersion.
This is a gorgeous watch. I bought it from Amazon roughly 7 months ago and don't have much of a complaint. There are, however, a couple of things I'd like to point out to potential buyers.
1. Fact, the watch is water resistant. It is, however, not impervious to condensation forming inside the watch. If you take showers or go swimming with your watch on, be ready to have a light film show up on the underside of the crystal for a few days. It goes away, but it looks terrible while it's there. For a watch that costs $3000+, I personally would expect it to be properly sealed.
2. There is an anti-reflective coating that covers the sapphire crystal. You can barely tell that it's there. However, if you're even the slightest bit clumsy, i.e., occasionally bump your wrist against a door or a wall, there is a chance that the anti-reflective coating will get scratched. In fact, it scratches quite easily. At first you'll think that the sapphire crystal has been scratched, but I can assure you that's not the case. The watch is fine, but you'll need to take it into a service center to get the AR film reapplied. It doesn't come cheap.
3. As is the case with anything you buy online, what you think you're seeing isn't necessarily what you get. This watch has a large face. No really, it has a large face and it's thick. If you have slim wrists or smallish hands, it has the potential to look gigantic on you. Just be warned if you're self conscious about these things.
Overall, this is a fine timepiece. It can be dressed up or down, but it has some drawbacks. Would I buy this watch again? Probably, but I'd try to find it as cheap as possible.

Entrance is on Eads St between Bank of America and Embassy Suites. Parking was free. The hotel looks like a throwback to the 1950's but don't let that scare you. We had a deluxe Queen room which I would say was a basic hotel room. It looked like it had been recently updated. If you are looking for luxury, you will not find it here. That being said, the bed was very comfortable (should have asked for an extra pillow), and the room was very clean. The bathroom was small but on par with what you would find in a typical home built in the 60's. Again, it was very clean which is what matters to me. The WiFi reception in our room was not great but it worked fine in the lobby.
We walked to the Crystal City metro (which is under the Marriot hotel) in just a few minutes. We also walked to Pentagon City shopping center, Costco and even to the Pentagon for our tour there. So, you can see that the hotel is very conveniently located.
Breakfast, which is included, consisted of 4 types of cold cereal, donuts, bagels and fresh fruit. I think there was some instant oatmeal as well. The coffee was good and there was some juice.
If you are looking for clean, basic accommodations at a great rate for the area, then I'd recommend the Americana Hotel.

Crystal Stilts: Between Darkness And Light
'Flying Into the Sun' by Crystal Stilts
Wednesday's Pick
Song: "Flying Into the Sun"
Artist: Crystal Stilts
CD: In Love With Oblivion
Genre: Rock
If it were possible to excise Brad Hargett's vocals from Crystal Stilts' songs, it would sound like a very different band. Underneath all that cavernous reverb is a warm, summery quality that owes as much to 1960s psychedelia as it does to the '80s post-punk sound that has become its signature.
But with Hargett's brooding, low bass — a voice somewhere in the same deep range as Joy Division's Ian Curtis or The National's Matt Berninger — those same songs are transformed into uneasy, sometimes sinister set pieces about regret, emptiness and learning to shake off the pain of the past.
Much of In Love With Oblivion, Crystal Stilts' second record, plays with that duality between darkness and light. "Flying Into the Sun" is a romping '60s rocker filled with brightly raked, open guitar chords, rattling tambourines and warm, churning Farfisa organ. But Hargett's stoic croon elevates the sense of morose detachment. "There's a black hole behind these eyes that takes everything with it when it dies," he sings, awash in icy echoes that ring out as if he's singing to the rafters of an empty gymnasium. Still, it's not all somber grieving: The song's final refrain teases out a desire to spend our waning days with a loved one. A turn toward the positive, it shows that at the heart of Crystal Stilts' music is something heartfelt and earnest.

The Refs Are Back - The NFL Is Perfect Again!
After a public outcry in the aftermath of this week's controversial Monday Night football victory by the Seattle Seahawks, the NFL has struck a deal to bring back the regular officials. We can now breath a collective sigh of relief, knowing that football will be perfect once more. There is only one problem! Football was never perfect, and it is never going to be perfect, there has always been bad calls, and mistakes by officials have always affected the outcome of games in the past.
The issue regarding replacement officials was completely blown out of proportion by fans, players, coaches and in particular the media. After the first two weeks of the season, people were already talking, complaints about the officials were pouring in, and this witch hunt against replacement refs was just getting started. ESPN ran a story on September 20, that I found quite interesting, but not at all shocking. The article titled "Number of flags almost the same", went on to say that statistically the number of penalties for various infractions called by replacements refs, was similar to last season with the real officials. They broke down the number of flags and different types of infractions, and most of them were reasonably the same.
Under normal circumstances, the NFL protects it's referees, and they are given the benefit of the doubt. You won't hear television commentators ripping into a professional referee about every call, because it would make the comentator appear to be unprofessional. The media is careful to respect the referees, and normally they only draw attention to the most obvious blown calls. Last week's game winning touchdown "non catch" by Golden Tate would qualify as an obvious blown call. That being said, it isn't as if it hasn't happened before.
Seattle fans will remember a few blown calls that went the other way against their team, and there was little public outcry about that outside of Seattle. Phil Luckett, who is famous for his inability to correctly perform the pre-game coin toss, was responsible for awarding Vinny Testaverde a touchdown in the dying minutes of a game against Seattle in 1998. As he scrambled toward the goal line coming up just short on 4th and 1, the television replays showed that Vinny didn't get into the endzone, but the ruling on the field was a touchdown and the Seahawks lost, not only the game, but a chance of making the playoffs.
The Seahawks went all the way to the Superbowl in 2005, and they got off to a quick start against the Steelers. Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck led an opening drive, marching down the field and scoring a touchdown with a 16 yard pass to Darrell Jackson. There was a flag on the play, a phantom offensive pass interference call that wiped out Seattle's score. It was only the beginning, the entire game was filled with similar calls that appeared to one-sided in favor of Pittsburgh.
After the game Seattle Coach Mike Holmgren commented about the officiating saying: "We knew it was going to be tough going against the Pittsburgh Steelers. I didn't know we were going to have to play the guys in the striped shirts as well." Normally comments like that would result in a fine, but Holmgren was not disciplined for his remarks.
The referee in that game was Bill Leavy, and he came clean about the bad calls in 2010, saying: "It was a tough thing for me. I kicked two calls in the fourth quarter and I impacted the game, and as an official you never want to do that. It left me with a lot of sleepless nights, and I think about it constantly. I'll go to my grave wishing that I'd been better ... I know that I did my best at that time, but it wasn't good enough ... When we make mistakes, you got to step up and own them. It's something that all officials have to deal with, but unfortunately when you have to deal with it in the Super Bowl it's difficult."
So when you put these things into perspective, the Packers loss in Seattle last week palls in comparison. The reaction from fans and media, suggesting that Seattle didn't deserve to win, and that Golden Tate is a cheater, is simply ludicrous. ESPN ran a story on Tuesday, saying: "Seattle's Win Stands"? Damn right it stands, and only a bloody fool would suggest otherwise!
Yes, admittedly the Packers were robbed, as many teams before them have been robbed, not excluding the Seahawks. When you have been betting on sports for as long as I have, you have seen it all when it comes to blown calls and teams getting robbed. It happens almost every week, but somehow the media and the fans seem to have forgotten that football is not perfect?
Moving forward, now that the regular referees are back on the job, it would be naive to think that we have seen the last of blown calls and games decided by the officials. It might not happen this week, it may not even happen next week, but before the season is finished, there will be more coaches, players and fans crying foul. But now that things are back to normal, those cries will fall on deaf ears, because under normal circumstances, nobody cares, as long as it isn't your team.

- Capper:
- Marc Lawrence
- Start:
- July 27, 2016 - 8:10 PM

- Analysis:

With the visiting team a perfect 3-0 in Tanaka's career team starts in this series, and Tanaka sporting a 1.50 ERA away as opposed to a 4.30 ERA at home this season, we recommend a 1* play on the Pinstripes. Thank you and good luck as always.

When the martian surface is eroded, pretty things emerge
A Piece of Mars: Just like at Earth's Grand Canyon, erosion on Mars has created some really beautiful landscapes. This 480×270 m (0.3×0.17 mi) scene shows rugged terrain that was once buried in sediment. Does the texture here represent the landscape before it was buried, or was it created in the process of scouring off all that overlying sediment? Probably a mixture of both. And we get a pretty view because of it! (HiRISE ESP_046198_1750, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Where we have been
A Piece of Mars: This 0.98×0.54 km (0.61×0.34 mi) scene shows ancient windblown bedforms (maybe dunes) that have been partially eroded by the wind. The wind has left behind ghostly stripes: these are remnants of where these things once were, back when they were still actively migrating. Some of the bedforms have been almost entirely erased, except for those remaining bits. Much smaller (2-3 m wavelength) ripples have since formed between some of them, probably made from material scavenged from the larger bedforms. (HiRISE ESP_037700_1710, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Landslides unlike any on Earth
A Piece of Mars: Click on this 0.96×0.54 km (0.6×0.33 mi) scene to see it in detail. Many thin, narrow landslides have formed on these dust-coated hills. As far as I'm aware, there's nothing like this on Earth. Inside the landslide scars, there are small dusty ripples about 1.75 m (~6 ft) in wavelength, smaller than the ripples found on dark sandy dunes. These landslides are visible in images at least as far back as 2007, although they clearly formed after the small crater on the slope (which is slowly being filled with the dusty debris). (HiRISE ESP_045605_1715, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
How to hide geology on Mars
A Piece of Mars: Three things are trying to hide in this 0.96×0.48 km (0.6×0.3 mi) scene. 1) Craters are slowly being both scoured and buried by migrating sand, 2) the sand itself is hiding in the lee of crater rims and other topographic obstructions to the wind, and 3) small patches of ice (blue in this stretch) are hiding on shady slopes (north is to the right in this southern hemisphere image, taken during southern winter). (HiRISE ESP_045792_1395 NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)

New craters and wind
A Piece of Mars: The two small dark craters (2.25-2.4 m, or 7.4-7.8 ft across) are brand new, having appeared in CTX images sometime between May 2007 and April 2008. They punched through a layer of bright dust and threw up some darker material, which the wind carried downwind (near-surface winds blowing from the southwest, and higher winds blowing from the southeast). Application of an atmospheric model could further constrain the season and time of day when the impact happened, based on the prevailing wind direction. This picture from May 2016 shows the wind streaks are still there, having faded only a little in the 8-9 years since they formed. (HiRISE ESP_045798_1965, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Itty bitty changes: places where the wind barely moves sand
A Piece of Mars: Not all dunes on Mars are moving at a measurable pace. This 0.96×0.45 km (0.6×0.28 mi) scene looks a lot like one I posted 3 years ago called Martian Sports. This image shows the same dunes 9.5 years apart (that's 5 Mars Years). There are a few places where patches of sand have appeared or been removed, but it would take some detailed work to figure out whether the bulk of the dunes has shifted much. In the first post I guessed that the upper dune would crash into its topographic hurdle in 20 years, but after nearly 10 years of relative inactivity, I'll have to revise that estimate upwards to perhaps 100 years. (HiRISE <a href="http://www.uahirise.org/ESP_045785_1995"ESP_045785_1995 NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Neverending dust
A Piece of Mars: Some parts of Mars, like this one, are very dusty. This 1.92×1.1 km (1.2×0.67 mi) area has built up a thick deposit of dust that slowly buries the impact craters until they're mere ghosts of the deep bowls they once were. If you knew the dust fallout rate, you could date the age of the craters. Or if you knew the age of the craters, you could estimate the mean dust fallout rate. (HiRISE ESP_044884_2050, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Dune cannibals II
A Piece of Mars: This 0.96×0.54 km (0.60×0.34 mi) scene shows two sets of bedforms (dunes), each aligned in different directions. The more closely-spaced set has sharper crests, and it's superposed on top of (and it is therefore younger than) the more widely-spaced set. Like a previous post I wrote, the younger set has cannibalized sediment from the older set (although in aeolian geology we say it has "reworked" the sediment). If you click on the image, you might be able to convince yourself that some internal bedding from the older set is being exposed by erosion, but it's hard to tell for sure at this resolution (maybe we could tell if we had a full resolution HiRISE image to work with here – hmm, maybe I'll go request one). (HiRISE ESP_045299_1545 NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Wind shadow
A Piece of Mars: There's a dune field migrating past a 230 m (755 ft) diameter crater, creating a 1.6 km (1 mi) long "shadow" that's empty of dunes. Why? The rim of the crater pokes up just enough to affect the wind, like pebbles in a stream. Either the sand is diverted around the crater, or the rim produces turbulence that increases erosion (or possibly both at different times). I like the dunes that are disrupted as they migrate into the crater. (HiRISE ESP_037948_1645, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)
Craters and wind
A Piece of Mars: This 90 m (295 ft) crater impacted into a windy, cratered plain. It's now partly filled with dark sand, but where did that sand come from? Looking closely you'll see that many of the boulders that were flung out during the impact have little "tails". These tails show that wind from the upper right blows sediment toward the lower left: some of it gets trapped behind the boulders (and other topographic projections), and some of it is the dark sand that got trapped inside the crater. (HiRISE ESP_045397_1885, NASA/JPL/Univ. of Arizona)

Edith Wharton (1862-1937) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist, poet, designer and short story writer. Born Edith Newbold Jones to a wealthy New York family, the saying "Keeping up with the Joneses" is said to refer to her father's family. Wharton's privileged upbringing gave her valuable insight into America's upper classes, which were the primary subject of her insightful and entertaining novels. She lived the final decades of her life in France, becoming an ardent supporter of French Imperialism. Her novel, THE AGE OF INNOCENCE was completed in France and earned the first Pulitzer Prize by a woman.

Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton based on 0 ratings. 5 reviews.
Wow!! Wouldn't have imagined that a risque topic would be part of this period time piece. Truly, if I hadn't seen the movie with Liam Neeson, I don't think I would have read this American classic but I sure am glad now that I did. Wharton did a tremendous job comparing the dreary existence of Zeena with the light and playfulness of Mattie. It is a very easy read and definitely gets the checkmark for American literature!!
This novel is so limited in scope that it's better described as a short story that overstays its welcome. There's not enough passion to make it a tragedy. Oh, the color of the cover is grey... Accurate.

How to get into the Journey closed beta
Are you one of the thousands of people who are clamoring for a chance to get into the Journey multiplayer beta that will be coming out months before the release of the game? Well, hurry up, there's not much time. You have until 7:00 Pacific US time to email the company and ask.
If you were one of the select few people who were both an early adopter of thatgamecompany's previous game Flower as well as a PlayStation Plus subscriber then you only have one chance left (if you were then you should check your messages as an invite may be headed your way.)
You need to send an email to email@example.com, and it needs to reach them by 7:00 pm Pacific Standard Time (GMT -7.) Thatgamecompany has not announced how many total people they will be selecting for the beta, but it probably isn't many considering how selective the first round of invites was.

GREAT NEWS: HBO Creating New Boxing Show
You heard it here first...
HBO Gives Pilot Order to "Spyke" Lee, Mike Tyson Boxing Drama
"Entourage" creator Doug Ellin is also on board for the project, which would be loosely based on the former heavyweight champion's early life in the ring.
August 30, 7:09 PM PDT 8/30/2011 by (Lacey Rose), (Lesley Goldberg)
HBO is stepping into the the boxing ring with Mike Tyson, "Spyke" Lee and Doug Ellin.
The premium cable network has ordered a pilot for Da Brick, a boxing drama project loosely based on former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tysons early life in the ring.
The project hails from Tyson, along with Lee, L.A. Riots' John Ridley, Entourage creator Ellin and his producing partner Jim Lefkowitz. Lee is set to direct with Ridley on board to write and serve as showrunner. It will be set in Newark, N.J., which is often dubbed "Brick City."
Much as Entourage was inspired by producer Mark Wahlberg's life, Da Brick will reflect aspects of Tyson's upbringing. It marks the latest in a string of Hollywood projects for Tyson, who has turned up in the Hangover franchise as well as Animal Planet's Taking on Tyson. Last season, he added a cameo on Entourage to his resume.
For his part, Ellin has a comedy vehicle with Ed Burns set up at HBO and will wrap up Entourage after eight seasons later this summer. Lee, too, is no stranger for the premium cable net, having produced and directed a series of New Orleans documentaries, When the Levees Broke and If God Is Willing and da Creek Don't Rise.

You can thank Pacquiao, because when he broke HBO's monopoly on boxing by taking his million selling ppvs to showtime, it forced HBO to compete.
Therefore boxing gets more exposure.
