In On 28 August 2009, after a fight between the Gallagher brothers backstage at the Rock-en-Seine festival near Paris, which involved Liam breaking Noel's guitar, their manager, Marcus Russell, announced the cancellation of the concert to a shocked audience just minutes before it was about to begin. Further announcements were also made by Russell, being the cancellation of the two concerts remaining of the European tour and also that the group "does not exist anymore".
Two hours later the following statement by Noel appeared on the band's website:
"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer." "Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan."
The band also cancelled their appearance at the V Festival in Chelmsford, Essex, last Sunday, claiming Liam was suffering from laryngitis. That was due to have been the last UK gig of the world tour, which began in Seattle 12 months ago.
Peggy Gallagher, mother of Liam and Noel, puts the recent bout of fights between the brothers down to tiredness from touring. "The funny thing is, they didn't fight as children. They didn't fight until they started the band". She also told a newspaper that she is "convinced" the band will reunite.
Only time will tell…

It's 40 years since photographer Iain Macmillan photographed The Beatles walking across the zebra crossing on Abbey Road outside the Abbey Road Studios. Thousands of people went along to Abbey Road Studios to celebrate the occasion and replicate the image which became the iconic cover for the last album The Beatles recorded together. Members of the Sergeant Peppers Only Dart Board Band attempted to recreate the famous photo shot in the midst of complete chaos by lack of crowd control. The local police were completely caught off guard by the event and were only expecting around a 100 fans.

Fox television this week faced an uncomfortable future when the two biggest stars on its Number 1-rated show "American Idol" openly discussed leaving, which experts said could send viewership plummeting in future seasons.
Paula Abdul, whose often quirky behavior has been a hot topic for years, told ABC News program "Nightline" that her contract ends after this season. And acid-tongued Simon Cowell, whom critics call the show's real star, gave several interviews in which he contemplated an exit when his deal ends next year. (More information at the link below)

A few more details about Warner Music Group's proposal to issue blanket music licenses to ISPs trickled out at the Digital Music Forum East conference this week, where industry consultant Jim Griffin — the man behind the plan — was a featured speaker.
According to published reports, Griffin, Managing Director of OneHouse LLC, said the bulk of the initiative is aimed at the university market under the banner of "Choruss". But exactly what "Choruss" will do depends on the campus. Griffin told attendees that "Choruss" will take different forms on different campuses, with each operating as a sort of business model laboratory where participating labels could experiment with different offers and prices. The results of these experiments could then be applied to public ISPs like Comcast, Verizon and AT&T.
The overarching strategy, however, remains the same—offer: a blanket monthly per-student fee to cover the use of all music downloading taking place on college campuses including, and especially, P2P networks.
Griffin said he expects the first implementations of the "Choruss" effort to begin in the upcoming academic school year with a handful of as-yet unnamed campuses.

Lynyrd Skynyrd keyboardist Billy Powell died this morning (Jan. 28) at his home in Orange Park, Florida. He was 56.
According to the Associated Press, Powell called 911 around 12:55 a.m. this morning, saying he was having trouble breathing. Rescue crews arrived at the home but Powell was pronounced dead just before 2 a.m.
Orange Park Police Lt. Mark Cornett told the AP that Powell had missed an appointment yesterday for a cardiac evaluation.
Powell, whose fluid piano runs spiced such classic Skynyrd songs as "Freebird," "Call Me The Breeze" and "Sweet Home Alabama," and founding guitarist Gary Rossington were the only two surviving band members aboard the 1977 plane crash that killed singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines and backup vocalist Cassie Gaines.

The rumors are true. Beginning in March, Billy Joel and Elton John, will reunite for their Face 2 Face tour and continue the most successful and longest-running concert pairing in pop history.
"I love touring with Billy. I have the greatest respect for him and we're such good friends," Elton said. And "the great thing about performing with Elton is that he is such a good piano player and that makes me have to dig deep to keep up with him, not to mention I've got the best seat in the house-only one piano away from Elton John!" said Billy.

Although he tended to be overshadowed by bandmates David Gilmour and Roger Waters, Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, who died on Monday September 15th, 2008, following a battle with cancer, was a vital part of the group's sonic explorations. He also co-wrote several of the Floyd's strongest songs.
After learning of Rick's death Waters issued a statement in which he said, "It is hard to overstate the importance of his musical voice in the Pink Floyd of the '60s and '70s. The intriguing, jazz influenced, modulations and voicings so familiar in 'Us and Them' and 'Great Gig in the Sky,' which lent those compositions both their extraordinary humanity and their majesty, are omnipresent in all the collaborative work the four of us did in those times. Rick's ear for harmonic progression was our bedrock." Nick Mason said "The sound of Pink Floyd is more than the guitar, bass, and drum thing. Rick was the sound that knitted it all together." Gilmour said: "No-one can replace Richard Wright - he was my musical partner and my friend."
At the time of his death, Wright had been working on a new solo album, which was thought to comprise a series of instrumental pieces. "He was such a lovely, gentle, genuine man and will be missed terribly by so many who loved him," said Gilmour.

Yesterday, September 11th, was a huge day for the music industry - with three major releases on the same day. Two of the top dogs in urban music and a leader in country sales each had major record releases. Early reports put Kanye West's Graduation on track to outsell both 50 Cent's Curtis, and Kenny Chesney's Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates.
This comes as somewhat of a surprise based on LyricWiki traffic which would put 50 Cent ahead of both West and Chesney. The race between Kanye and 50 will be close, but will no doubt be a very important battle. Unlike most rivalries where high-sales mean that both parties win, if 50's Curtis doesn't outsell Kanye's Graduation, 50 Cent has vowed to stop rapping entirely! After making this statement, 50 has been asked to confirm his intentions and has repeatedly stood by his claim.
Keep a close eye on all three of these albums - regardless of who comes out on top, it is sure to be an interesting month in the charts!

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the untimely demise of Elvis Presley.
Born Elvis Aaron Presley in Memphis, Tennessee, he had an eventful career. He paid $3.98 to record the demo which launched his career. He was extremely prolific and successful for decades, until weight problems and addiction to prescription drugs slowed him down. The last year of his career was an unfortunate contrast to the rest of his legacy. Due to his deteriorating health, he frequently forgot the words to songs, was much less mobile, and only gave short performances at which many fans complained that they could barely understand him.
He died of a drug overdose at the age of 42.

Rage Against The Machine have launched two mysterious countdowns on their website. The group, who reformed for this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, are displaying both clocks on Ratm82407.com. The first countdown will end on June 11, while the second timer will finish on August 24.
Although the site gives no indication what the clocks are for, enterprising fans claim to have cracked its meaning. According to an update on Wikipedia, if users set the internal clocks on their computers forward to the deadlines, the site then reveals its meaning. The June 11 deadline will apparently reveal the website's purpose, while repeating the trick will also explain the later countdown.
"The website is registered to "Live Nation Worldwide, Inc.". "Live Nation" owns Alpine Valley Music Theatre, in East Troy, Wisconsin" explains Wikipedia. "By turning your PC clock forward to June 11 the website reveals that RATM will be playing a show there when the second countdown ends on August 24, 2007."

U2 have been working on new material in Morocco with Brian Eno, they have revealed. The group are understood to have been in Africa writing songs for the follow-up to 2004's How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. They have been joined by long-term collaborators Eno and Daniel Lanois, who have produced some of their most important recordings.
In an online posting, Bono explained how sessions were coming along. "We have no plans for the music yet. We're just going to make it until we can't not put it out!" Meanwhile, Larry Mullen commented on U2's official website: "It's the first time we've worked with Brian and Dan in a purely songwriting capacity. So it's very different, quite experimental and kind of liberating because of that."
The last "original" piece of music released by U2 was a collaboration with Green Day, "U2 And Green Day:The Saints Are Coming", a cover of The Skids' classic song, which was produced by Rick Rubin.

"From a recording point of view, people have forgotten how groundbreaking it was given the recording technology at the time," said Jo Phillips, director of "10 Alps", the company commissioned to create the documentary.

BEIJING/ZHENGZHOU, China China will open the world's longest high-speed rail line next week when a link between Beijing and the southern metropolis of Guangzhou is inaugurated, officials said on Saturday, underscoring its commitment to a trouble-plagued transport scheme.
The 2,298-km (1,428-mile) line, parts of which are already in operation, will begin full service on Wednesday, halving travel time to less than 10 hours on trains which will run at 300 kph (186 mph).
The new route offers a chance for China's railways ministry, which has been dogged by scandals and missteps, to redeem itself.
A July 2011 crash of a high-speed train killed 40 people and raised concerns about the safety of the fast-growing network and threatened plans to export high-speed technology.
"We have developed a full range of effective measures to manage safety," Zhou Li, head of the ministry's science and technology department, told reporters on a trial run from Beijing to the central city of Zhengzhou.
"We can control safety management," he added.
Last year's accident near the booming eastern coastal city of Wenzhou occurred when a high-speed train rammed into another stranded on the track after being hit by lightning.
Rail investment slowed sharply in the wake of that accident and state media reported earlier this year that the government had cut planned railway investment by 500 billion yuan to 2.3 trillion yuan under a five-year plan to 2015.
But that may reflect cuts that have already taken place as the Ministry of Railways has raised its planned investment budget three times this year as part of government efforts to bolster a slowing economy.
The ministry plans to spend a total of 630 billion yuan in 2012 and has been given clearance to sell more bonds to finance the investments - one of the few outright spending commitments made by the central government in a slew of project approvals worth $157 billion which have not specified how they will be funded.
The approvals include 25 rail investments, state media say.
Despite its expanding network, the Ministry of Railways struggles to make money. It suffered an after-tax loss of 8.8 billion yuan in the first half of 2012 in the face of rising operating costs and mounting debts.
However, the government says it remained committed to building high-speed railways between its major cities, with China eventually planning to run them into Russia and down to Southeast Asia.
"High-speed railways are needed for national development, for the people and for regional communication. Many countries have boosted their economies by developing high-speed rail," Zhou said.
China said in May it would open up the railway industry to private investment on an unprecedented scale, but private investors have been sceptical.
The need for funding is acute. China still needs billions more in rail investment to remove bottlenecks in cargo transport, ease overcrowding in passenger transport and develop commuter lines in its sprawling megacities.

Who: Ideal for dry or dull hair, but good for all types (except super-fine); especially coconut lovers and island hoppers; color compatible.
When: Once a week (or as often as you like); following Creme de Coco Shampoo.
Gives hair that elusive, undone-yet-done quality, with a hint of grit, hold and a tousled, shine-free finish.
If you were born with curly hair, but dream of straight, all you need is this, a blow-dryer and a brush to make wavy hair its smoothest, shiniest, silkiest, and sexiest ever. It has super-soft feel and protects hair from heat and humidity changes. A formulation of seven different types of Silicone make wet-combing much easier, and add extra shine. Suitable for all curly hair types. Directions:...
Bumble and bumble Thickening Spray is a non-aerosol spray that builds volume and doubles as a heat protectant. Use it on damp or dry hair, alone or along with other styling products.

We stayed at this property from 10/20/12 through 10/27/12. The property was easy to find after leaving the Ft. Walton airport in our rental car. The airport is small so it was easy in and out. The address for the property was found on our AT&T phone mapping program and we were there with ease. Upon arriving it is not obvious where you need to go to check in. We figured it out easy enough but from our room we noticed all week people stopping and pausing trying to figure out where to go. We filled out the check in paperwork ahead of time during some downtime at the airport waiting for our connection. Check in was easy and efficient and similar to all other Wyndham property processes. There is a parking garage for use by guests with baggage trolleys at every elevator directly to the rooms. There were plenty of trolleys available.
Garage, elevators, and hallways were all very clean. Signage to the rooms was easy and everything worked. We used points and reserved a one bedroon deluxe suite. This room has a long entry hallway, a kitchen, living and dining area, a master bedroom, and a balcony. The bathroom has a jacuzzi tub with shutters that open to the bedroom. Our room was an accessible room, we didn't request it, nor did we need it so I'm not sure how the layout differs. We had a large walk in shower and a sink in both the bathroom proper and the vanity area where the jacuzzi tub was. Lots of room, plenty of towels for inside use and four beach towels. There was a suitable amount of soap and such for us to use as well. The room was clean.
There has been much discussion about the beds. They are a bit firm but the week was comfortable and restful. The only issue we had with the bed was that the sheets didn't fit so we needed to keep adjusting. I think the sheets were regular king sheets and maybe the mattress was a deep mattress? Very minor issue.
There was also plenty of storage in the room so hanging space was plentiful, although it took us a couple days to find the iron :-) There was an in room safe as well. HVAC worked great and seemed to maintain temperature although a bit cooler than the temp indicated. Very comfortable. The floors are all ceramic tile and that keeps the sand manageable that is invariably brought in BUT it also makes for noisy neighbors. Every movement above us came through the floor. Just something to be aware of with hard floors throughout. We noted it but did not find it a nuisance.
The entire room and the kitchen had obviousy been recently updated. Paint was fresh, surfaces current and appliances perhaps not as new as the upgrade but in good conditon. Coffee maker was brand new.
The building sits perpendicular to the gulf. Balconies are angled out of the building and face the gulf. We had a good view but the building faces a road (how we noted people trying to figure the check in) but the gulf captures your attention. If I have attached a picture it is the view from the balcony. Higher numbered rooms are closer to the gulf and further from the trash room. Elevators are in the middle... you make the call.
There is no restaurant in the building. There is one in the condo complex across the street "The Crab Shack", and there is a beach restaurant in short walking distance "The Whale Tale" and further down the beach is the famous "Pompano Joe's". A car rental is definitely a good idea and there are many scooter, bike, and jelly car rentals (these are three wheeled motorized and peppy cute things that look like jelly beans). There are plentiful opportunities for any kind of food you could want within a short drive or a good walk.
There is no pool at this specific property and there are five pools at adjacent properties that can be accessed. One that is closest is an indoor/outdoor pool and has two hot tubs. People have written about this pool being through a garage or outside and into another building. All true but the pool is very close and a short walk. We had beautiful weather all week and went to the pool once just to try it out. It was clean but there was maintenance going on so the peace was lost on the ambience of a pressure washer. The other pools were a walk and looked nice, but few people were in the pools since the gulf was so beautiful. We spent all of our water and sun time on the beach.
There are no complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas. They are available on the beach for $40.00 a day. Ask at the activities center for chairs and umbrellas to check out. If they have any serviceable ones that were left behind you can get them free. We left behind two chairs and an umbrella. There are plenty of beachside shops to get beach gear at a good price and close by.
Staff were all very nice and very helpful. Mids came mid-week we only asked for more towels and they were provided readily.Checkout is at 10am and the maid brigade was pounding on the door at 10am sharp. We found that a bit disturbing. We were ready to go, bags in hand, but that had us feeling like we were being hustled off of a table at a busy restaurant. Very uncharacteristic of the week and the entire experience and the reason it doesn't get a 5.
We will go back for sure and will also explore the Wyndham property down the coast in Destin.

excellent experience
A good experience with all above.
The doctor dealt with my problem with confidence and made me feel at ease. Provided excellent information & what I need to do.
Dr. Crone has a great bedside manner. He is kind, intelligent, and thorough. I'll be very happy if he happens to be the doctor on call when it's time to deliver my baby.
Great experience with Dr. Crone. He answered all my concerns. Very friendly. Will definitely recommend him to friends

Dr. Crone and his surgical team were very good. I felt important. I felt like like my questions and concerns were important enough to them to answer them to my satisfaction and understanding.
did not have a great experience with him when I was pregnant either
It felt like most things the doctor said to me, he'd said a million times - it all felt a little rushed and impersonal.

If the election were held today, I would vote for Hillary Clinton. There is the quick reasoning of being a woman first before being called a person of color. But though my gender plays a small part to my decision, there is definitely more to my reasoning to making such choice.
I've watched a number of debates and interviews over the past few months and to me the person that gives clear strategies when it comes to the dealing with our floundering foreign policy, women's issues and a gumption to announce a healthcare plan (even after a failed attempt 14 years ago) is Hillary Clinton.
A couple of months ago, I was still on the fence between Clinton and Barack Obama. But Clinton made me take a second look after the Howard University debate. While I love Obama's "audacity of hope" and I have been fascinated with him for the different style he brings to politics since I watched his passionate speech at the DNC in 2004, I still feel I need more substance.
I don't slight Obama for his lack of experience as some pundits have noted but watching him on a few of these debates, he just didn't knock the ball out the ballpark.

This Kindle version actually have two books in one: "The Time Traders" and "Galactic Derelict." The former is the first in the series quite appropriately entitled "The Time Traders" with the latter being the second novel. The first focuses on a confrontation between the US and the "Reds" as well as the mysterious alien race that has used time travel (this novel route back and forth between present day and a trading tribal society in ancient Britain). The main character is Ross Murdock, who always in trouble with the laws, but he was chosen for his physical make-up and quickly recruited into the army of time. Through him, we discover a conflict between the Russians and the Americans in the past and by an accident, an alien race who aren't happy to see one of their own neglected crashed ships on Earth being looted. The second novel directs our attention to a new character, Travis Fox, an American Indian, as he eventually stumbled upon the army of time and became recruited as well. Both Fox and the characters of the previous story taken upon a secret mission to recover a crashed ship in the past and eventually, in an emergency, Fox, Ross, Ashe, with technician Renfry, all taken shelter inside an intact ship and became trapped when the ship takes off on an automatic course. During their journey, they'd experience three worlds, no longer alive with an advanced alien civilization, and work their way back home.Read more ›

FRUGAL TRAVELER; See Paris, if You Get Around to It
Published: January 19, 2003
(Page 2 of 3)
Still, I had other Parises in my bulging notebook waiting to be sampled. For Day 2, I followed the Palm Pilot instructions of my shopping maven friends, first to the boutiques in St.-Germain-des-Prés, too expensive for me, and then to the big department stores in the Ninth Arrondissement, Printemps and Galeries Lafayette.
I was thrilled to learn that these department stores, as friends had told me, indeed give a card good for a flat 10-percent discount to foreign shoppers who visit their welcome desks and show a passport. That discount, plus the 12 percent V.A.T. rebate for purchases over $175, means that it is possible to buy just about anything in the stores for nearly a quarter less than the marked price. Even better, I found that the department stores stocked the same designer items as the boutiques, but also in larger sizes (12's, 14's and even some 16's) in many cases.
I had lunch ($20) in a cafe under Printemps's gorgeous Art Nouveau stained-glass dome, and tea at the end of the day at nearby Fauchon, where the waitress brings a silver egg timer to let you know the precise moment to pour your tea.
Day 3 found me following yet another acquaintance's Parisian trail, one that led to the restaurant of Pierre Gagnaire, famous for breathtakingly complex and pricey cuisine. I'd wanted to experience haute cuisine in Paris, because it seemed to me an essential thing to do, like going to the theater in London. Thus I'd budgeted myself one fabulously expensive lunch, which came in around $150 (dinners are upward of $400) with two glasses of red wine, and was served with Japanese precision and grace.
Sitting at my corner table, attended by a team of waiters who silently and soundlessly removed and replaced round after round of dishes, glasses and silver, I felt as if I were a player in a Noh drama. Courses came and went, some astonishingly delicious (a Catalan seafood stew with baby squid stuffed with a spicy mixture of coriander and peanuts), and some rather scary (an amuse-bouche of a strange double-layered jiggling jelly, one made of squid ink, the other a clear cardamom infusion).
It was almost too much to take in, and I realized that for the rest of my time in the city, I needed to slow down and to find my own Paris, instead of trying to do a crash course in everyone else's.
And so, on the fourth day, I moved to an even more remote and ''unfashionable'' location, to the Hôtel La Manufacture, near the Place d'Italie in the 13th Arrondissement. I'd pulled La Manufacture at random from a list of discounted lodgings at www.hoteldiscounts.com; it was a three-star boutique hotel with a great price, $80. Once again, I was in for a nice surprise -- if anything, my new room was prettier and more pleasant than the one at the Monge. I found high ceilings, a cheerful color scheme of muted yellows and a large French window with a faux balcony. The bathroom had both shower and tub and even a towel heater.
Although farther from the center, my new location had access to a wider selection of Métro lines and to a real Paris neighborhood virtually devoid of tourists. So devoid that on at least two occasions on my way to the Métro, I was asked for directions in French (which I attributed to the fact that my gloves and handbag -- thank you, Printemps! -- now matched perfectly).
From the Place d'Italie, I looked again for Paris, this time without lists or suggestions, on my own. And I found it, in a sweet little Vietnamese restaurant, Foyer du Vietnam, where the pho noodle soup had a depth and richness of flavor that I had never before tasted. It was part of a two-course dinner, with a carafe of house wine, that cost $8.50. Around the corner from the Musée d'Orsay, behind an undistinguished front with no window, I stumbled into a find for me, although a classic name in Paris: Androuet, affiliated with the small chain of fine cheese shops. There, for less than $40, I luxuriated in a lunch of beef stew with a wine and cheese sauce, then worked my way slowly through a plate of 12 cheeses chosen from a groaning cart of more than 30 varieties.
I found my own special places, too: the small room at the end of a long corridor in the modern art gallery of the Centre Pompidou hung with the classic black-and-white photographs of Paris of Brassaï, and the room, in the Picasso Museum in the Marais, hung with the masks from West Africa that belonged to the artist, and helped to inspire ''Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.'' And my favorite, the main floor of the Musée Guimet near the Trocadéro, where many priceless works of art from Angkor Wat are displayed in a serene home.
Late one afternoon, on a day when the big museums had closed off entire floors or closed down altogether because of a labor strike, I cut my losses and dived into the Métro; the Louvre would still be in Paris when I came back. In my subway car, a crowd of men wearing identical bright red berets and holding tattered posters and furled banners, sang boisterous songs -- marchers on their way home from demonstrations at the Bastille, I figured. The scene was like something out of a historical movie, and it felt stirring to be surrounded by Parisians on their turf, actually practicing liberté, égalité and fraternité.
I was still humming the song as I exited at the Champs-Élysées to take that picture of the Arc de Triomphe. The real deal, this time, and definitely worth waiting for.
If you go (finally) to Paris

"If some people would pick one thing and stick with it, they would frickin' rule that one thing," says Barb Hays. "For us to take it to the next level, maybe we need to focus on one thing."
But as fellow performer Dickie Van Dyke points out, part of the fun is in the variety of performances they can pull off: "If I didn't have my hand in so many different cookie jars, I wouldn't have such a great taste in my mouth!"
The sun's shining, and it's hot and muggy on the last Saturday in June. Jonathan Rej eyes the kids and parents sauntering in for the matinee showing of the Silver Scream Spook Show.
Rej frets about today's turnout; the indie-rock music fest Corndogorama is running all day a couple miles away at Lenny's, and pop-surrealist artist R. Land is opening his first Atlanta exhibit in five years later that evening in Little Five Points.
Rej notes the crossover with a wary smile: "It's all pretty much the same crowd."
But Rej and his wife, Gayle – who pooled their financial resources two years ago to buy the Plaza – marvel at the success, and impact, of the monthly horror/sci-fi event.
"I'm surprised at their attention span during the show," Jonathan, 35, says of the children, who range in age from 5 to 10. "And the kids really stick around for the movie afterward, and they pay attention."
The Silver Scream's troupe of about a dozen members features Morton, Dumas, the Blast-Off troupe and others performing horror or sci-fi skits that recall programming from the early days of television designed to introduce that week's scary movie.
"Silver Scream's the biggest event we have," Jonathan Rej notes, while Gayle preps for her debut as the stuttering Persephone in an upcoming skit. "It shows that all of our events are not just movies. It's more interactive."
Another veteran of Atlanta's music scene, the mutton-chopped Morton is an impresario who for years has been finding an outlet for his love of all things spooky. His Decatur home overflows with action figures, movie posters and life-size creatures from camp classics such as The Creature from the Black Lagoon. "He's the Robert Osborne of monster movies," a friend says.
The Silver Scream Spook Show is the craziest scheme Morton has hatched since he and fellow tattoo artist Jim Stacy collaborated on the 16-member Star Wars tribute band Grand Moff Tarkin back in 1999. "Our basic goal," Morton says, "was to get sued by George Lucas."
Morton formed the troupe when he recruited Jon Waterhouse to play his Igor-like sidekick Retch during the Silver Scream Spook Show, and the Blast-Off crew as supporting players and script co-writers.
The show features an ongoing rivalry between his character, Professor Morté (Morton), and Morte's nemesis, the evil, conservative Doctor Wertham (Nick Morgan) – a reference to social scientist and comic-book hater Frederic Wertham of Seduction of the Innocent fame. Morton winks at the audience as he spits out one-liners. With his Eddie Munster black wig and mischievous streak, Morton comes across as a wise-cracking Bela Lugosi.
June's wafer-thin plot involves Wertham's belief that there's no such thing as aliens (from outer space, anyway). The Blast-Off Burlesque women fill in as sexy nurses and go-go dancers, with Waterhouse's sidekick, Retch, egging Morté along in his duel with Wertham.
"I came here to watch science-fiction movies and eat popcorn," Morté declares, "and I'm all out of popcorn!" He eats the toy version of Wertham and smacks his lips. "Mmm, tastes like chicken," he sneers as the kids scream in delight.
Morton saves his real enthusiasm to introduce the 1956 film Forbidden Planet, which underscores his passion for classic monster and sci-fi fare. "This was in the day before computers ruined everything," he says "You're going to see flying saucers that were made to be flying saucers, by actual humans!"
The movie rolls, and as Jonathan Rej predicted, the kids remain in their seats, transfixed, as a young Leslie Nielsen tries to save the titular forbidden planet from itself.
While the film rolls, the Silver Scream cast heads for the lobby to evaluate the performance, which invariably requires tweaking for the night show.
Morton is unfazed, even if the show precedes a five-week U.S. tour with Dumas and the Luchagors. "It's going to be a lot tighter," Morton promises. "It's never too tight. People come to watch us fuck up. It's hanging from a desperate string the whole time."
The Silver Scream Spook Show isn't the only regular lowbrow event that is happily suffering growing pains. You can see it in the prevalence of burlesque troupes, women's flat-track roller-derby matches, lowbrow-art openings and hot-rod/custom-car clubs.

HOWEVER, when the kids started getting older and we added a third to the pack, trips to the amusement park, water park, the fair, parades, basically anywhere there was need to be away from the car for long periods of time, there was just never enough storage space. There was also only one true reclining seat so only the youngest could take a nap in the stroller. My wife tried to take the Chariot with the jogging kit installed to the amusement park but the kit is only meant to go straight. turning the stroller is easier if you are running but walking: have fun.
I caved and bought this strolling kit, thinking I could have easily found a used side-by-side for the same price as this kit. Since using the Chariot as a stroller rather primarily a trailer, we rarely use our Joovy. Yes, I am now one of those people I used to be irritated with: I love using the Chariot when we go to the pool, amusement park, or even a long errand day. It may have something to do with the ages of my kids right now, but this is just more practical to use (and SO much more convenient).
These may be pricey but the build quality is superior and the thing rolls smooth as butter. I highly recommend this product if you are contemplating it. We got our money's worth in the first summer of use.
The Bad: They are $75 dollars and even when we're walking one wheel rattles like crazy. It shakes the whole stroller. We have to lean it back and let it re-settle. We've tried jogging with it, as other reviews have said, but it was completely useless and frustrating. Tried cleaning and greasing the wheel like the instructions say, but no luck. Just got a defective wheel, I guess. If it worked then these would be really nice. We should have sent them back.
Then take two seconds to pop into place and then remove.
I also take about an hour and a half walk every day and these wheels make walking so fun with my chariot. I think they're the most versatile thing you can get for your Chariot. If you're not a huge runner, but just like to jog occasionally, these are perfect!

The worst of scumware, undoubtedly, are loggers. Whether it is a keylogger, or a different type of logger, these scumware have the potential to turn your world upside down by transmitting private information – such as credit card numbers, bank account information, social security number, etc. – to malicious people who will, without a second thought, use your information to their advantage. To help fight some of this, I have discussed KeyScrambler before, a software that is effectively an anti-keylogger. Zemana AntiLogger is a security software which takes that anti-keylogger aspect of KeyScrambler and expands on it by adding in various different anti-logging features to protect users from not only keyloggers, but many other different type of "logging "scumware.
Here is a detailed list of what Zemana AntiLogger can do, as per the developer:
While I can't personally vouch for Zemana AntiLogger's performance (because dotTech has not reviewed it), on paper Zemana AntiLogger looks very impressive. Furthermore, another noteworthy aspect of Zemana AntiLogger is its ability to work side-by-side with other security software. The developer has compiled a list of security software Zemana AntiLogger is "compatible" with:
As you can see, according to the developer, Zemana AntiLogger works with most popular security software.
Usually Zemana AntiLogger would cost $34 (USD) per year. However, users can get 1 year of Zemana AntiLogger for free!
To get Zemana AntiLogger for free, follow these simple directions:
Version being given out for free: 22.214.171.124
Free updates: Yes – free updates for 1 year
Supported OS: Windows XP SP2+/Vista/Win7
Update: Many dotTechies are reporting this does not work on 64-bit machines
Download size: 7.8 MB
Note: Unless specifically stated otherwise in this article, Zemana AntiLogger has not been tested or reviewed by dotTech (aside from ensuring that this giveaway is valid). All the information about the program in this post is based off the information provided on the developer's website. Please do not take this post as an endorsement/rejection or review of the program. This article is simply to inform about the availability of this program as a freebie; nothing more, nothing less.
- Visit the Zemana's Facebook fan page, and Like them:
- Visit the promotion page and click on buraya in the image:
- After clicking on buraya you will be taken to Zemana's website and given a registration code:
- Download and install Zemana AntiLogger. (The promotion is via Zemana's Facebook fanpage which is in Turkish but the installer and program are in English.)
- After installation, run Zemana AntiLogger, and register it with the license key you received earlier:
- Enjoy!
If you have any trouble getting Zemana AntiLogger 1 year license for free, post below and other dotTechies or I will try to help.
Thanks PCbasics!

1 year on, Zemana was good while it lasted on my husband's laptop. At the end of the year it was a very different story…
I uninstalled in safe mode, but nag screens continued to pop up every 3 minutes or so. WinPatrol couldn't control it, nor could I control it in the settings window.
The laptop runs Win7, and the instructions below apply to a mix of OS's, but you can work it out easily enough by combining the instructions as appropriate:
To uninstall:
1. enable the administrator account and log into it:
2. Use a combination of the following instructions – I used the manual instructions rather than the downloadable uninstaller:
I then did both a registry search and a general search on "zemana" and "antilogger" and got rid of a few more bits. Back up the registry first, obviously, and do at own risk.

I installed the software today, and it worked. I downloaded the program the day it was posted here on Dottech and forgot everything about it… The thing is that even though I got the serial and the software the 8th of december the Licens key says its one year, so I have it to the 29th of december 2011. So you can get the serial/linces key and its from the day you activate it – it counts… So I think people can grap the serial and then store it for later use ^^
- Jason
Followed the steps, clicked "buraya"…no key ); . It just sends me to Zemana's homepage.
- alain
great security software , thank you for this freebie !
- Obajoshi
I do not trust FB neither and therefore will pass on this freebie. Alan, hope you will take this opportunity to educate your son and young people out there that not everyone or everything you see on the internet is honest. Sometimes we learn from mistakes. You hear so many stories about innocent people opening that e-mail from Nigeria… and sending their info and bank accounts and wonder, how could they have done that?
AND… ohh yes Ashraf! Without further ado, it has been revealed by 'Anonymous' that indeed, your BRAIN is an AV. He was specific! If he had said ' …your own brain' then that would have meant each person's own individual brain, but he said ' Your brain' as in YOU, Mr Ashraf, Sir!. Locutus and all the other dottechies are my witness.
Please provide us with a link where we can download 'Ashraf's Brain AV'.
Hint…. We will be happy to 'BURAYA' anywhere but on Facebook.
- Emrys
Sweet. Thanks again.
- giovanni
And anyway, if I were you I'd install this FREE APP:
Unlike ZEMANA ANTILOGGER, with this FREE APP you are protected while banking online even if your PC is already infected by virus and spyware (keyloggers, trojans, backdoors etc….) as long as SafeOnline's settings are on Default Max for HTTPS sites!
Trust me dudes… SafeOnline does more than ZEMANA ANTILOGGER because of the Anti-Malware component behind Prevx SafeOnline.
Cheers from Italy!!

System protection (HIPS)
Anti keylogger
* Anti-SSL Logger (First in World)
Protects all operations that use SSL protocol.
* Anti-WebCam Logger (First in World)
Prevents any harmful applications from monitoring your Web Camera.
* Anti-Key Logger
Prevents all harmful applications from logging your keystrokes.
* Anti-ClipBoard Logger
Prevents harmful applications from taking snapshots of your clipboard.
* Anti-Screen Logger
Prevents harmful applications from capturing pictures and images of your computer screen.
* System Defence
Prevents any harmful applications that can effect your system.
So man you can't compare the two programs because ZEMANA ANTILOGGER provides much more key features than SPYSHELTER FREE EDITION.
The only comparison you can make is between ZEMANA ANTILOGGER and SPYSHELTER PREMIUM VERSION (€ 25) but since ZEMANA ANTILOGGER is FREE for a limited time I can't see any reason to spend money for a Software that more or less gives you the same degree of protection against bloody keyloggers, unless you are on Windows 7 64 bit of course!!
- alan
I accept that Zemana is not malware,
but it is keeping bad company by using Facebook.
My son created my Facebook account so my wife could see photos he posted.
Unfortunately he followed the Facebook rules that demanded accurate name and birthdate.
I falsified all that I could edit, but for all I know they still have my name and date of birth in their archives, and can still sell it to anyone. I do not trust Facebook management and hope they go to prison.
- Numsekrummen.dk
Thnx for the promo. I installed in on a vista 32-bit Acer laptop with Commodo Internet security Premium – Threatfire – Peerblock and Keyscrambler…
And it works fine… Dont use laptop for anything other then surfing, and writing documents at school. But still im a whore for free software :P
- jumbi
No need for users reports, Zemana claims officially that 64 bit is not supported due to Windows core limitations, I remember it clearly from last year offer. I suppose they will manage someday…
Spyshelter on the other hand has a paid 64 bit version and a free 32 bit version.
Facebook tactic should not be accused because small software firms need publicity and potential customers.
Tip.: if you use "like" and after getting the serial you "unlike" and then use another browser or another PC (or manage cookies) with the same facebook account and follow the procedure of like-unlike, you can get more new serials for your other PCs or friends!
That's the drawback of facebook policy, they can't control it :-)
- IndoMK
I'm planning on downloading and installing this, I've been looking for a protection software like this. But before I could, could someone running it (preferably on Windows XP) tell me how much memory it seems to use?
- Eric Smith
I downloaded and installed and registered the anti-logger.
I downloaded and tested the simulation test programs. Anti-logger didn't see any of them. I am unsure if it is because they are signed, a virus logger disabled it, if it anti-logger just doesn't work, or if something else has gone wrong.
I am using Windows 7 x64
I had fun with the recursion of the screen logger (I am easily amused).
The web cam logger crashed itself shortly after starting.
- Ashraf
@jumbi: Thanks I will look into it.
@johnd: Good suggestion; I have updated the article.
@alan: While I agree Facebook has a vested interest in not protecting your privacy. However, I don't think its fair to dismiss this promotion simply because it is done via Facebook. The promotion is for a genuine security program and is genuinely being offered by the developer. Anyone that already has a Facebook account simply needs to "Like" their page (they can "Unlike" later if they want). Anyone that doesn't have a Facebook can create a "throw-away" account if they want the offer.
Many people don't understand Facebook is only "dangerous" if you enter your real information in it. Even when I was on Facebook (I quit Facebook long ago and only maintain an account for dotTech now) I didn't put all my personal information on it. Even at that time – before Facebook's privacy woes were revealed – I thought people were fools to enter such personal information such as birthday, etc. If Facebook doesn't know much – or anything – about you, they don't do crap.
If you don't want to participate in Facebook that is fine; you don't have to. But that doesn't mean this promotion is scam.
- alan
Am I hallucinating ?
Is this the genuine dottech.org website ?
Getting a security application by clicking a Facebook LIKE is as ludicrous as downloading an Antivirus application from a Warez site.
If you want additional reasons for avoiding like the plague you will get "About 19,400,000 results" when you Google this combination of three words :-
Facebook like scam
I joined Facebook so my wife could see our grand children's photos,
and my first action was to set all my privacy for maximum protection.
Twice over Facebook has increased its exploitation of members by adding new privacy settings with defaults that increased how much of me they could sell to whoever/whatever was willing to buy me.
The third time I went through the tedious process to get my account closed.
They told me it would be suspended for one month and if I did not return in that month it would then be permanently closed.
Six months later and because I know that nothing stays the same on Facebook I suspect they could have changed that 1 month waiting period – perhaps I have to wait another 9 years before it is safe for me to visit and see whether my account is deleted.
I do not trust Facebook morality
I will not trust Facebook LIKE.
- johnd
Installed fine, stated working, but didn't work with their test app or the spyshelter test app jumbi mentioned. Therefore, I uninstalled. Why don't they state that it does nothing on a 64bit system (I have Win 7 64bit)! Ashraf, you should update your aticle to state that it doesn't appear to do any protecting on a 64 bit system.
- jumbi
Better than the time limited Zemana, go get the always free Spyshelter:
Note: The free version is 32 bit, but they do offer a shareware (and little better) version for 64 bit windows. And there is also a test tool which can be combined with Zemanas, for efficiency reference.
I strongly suggest Ashraf, to place it into your famous free security article.
- Mags
@Shueygal: You are not alone in feeling uncomfortable about using FB. I've had an account for years but rarely use it. Mostly I now use it for promotions like these.
What I would like to know is does this work with Win 7 32 bit or not?
After reading all the previous comments it isn't clear to me that it does. Some say yes, but have they tested it to see if it really does or not, or is it just simply running but doesn't recognize keyloggers as others have pointed out with Win 7 64 bit.
Thanks Ashraf. We can find so many tools, especially free ones on your site. Thanks!
- Mayank
@Ashraf: Add Me To Your List As I Just Visit FB For Some Games To Play Like Mafia Wars & Participate In Such Promotions To Be Able To Get A Valid License For Such Programs.
And No Relation With Facebook.

Just a heads up – You can obtain multiple licenses by logging into facebook with different browsers, firefox, I.E., Opera, etc. I was able to obtain a different code with each browser under the same facebook account.

@a simple happy man: Thanks for the information. That is what I will do.
- Jyo
@Kevin: You're right, I installed it on my 64-bit laptop, and tested it with the simulation test. No detection at all, so I guess it's only for 32-bit systems.
- Kevin
Did you test it? It installed and is running perfectly, it just won't detect keyloggers.
- zugshad
Thanks Ashraf for the informative post.. decided to give it a try since it works along side of my Keyscrambler Prem and Nod32.. funny thing is it doesnt show Online Armor in the list of Works/Dont work :( but it shows works fine with Comodo and Outpost.. so taking the chance it will work ;)… so far installed and shows working fine on my system win7 x64
@Kevin i have win7 x64 and it seems to be working ok for me.. not sure what is going on wiht yours
- Wayne Dunstan
Just saw this giveaway at techno360 where they supply the license key (universal key for facebook) Also noticed it will not run on windows 7 as seven has builtin keylogger which wont let others run.
- Kevin
This program does not seem to be working on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. I tested it by downloading the Zemana Simulation Test at http://www.zemana.com/anti-keylogger.aspx, but the program did not catch the keylogging. I then installed it on my 32-bit Windows Vista machine and it worked fine.
Thanks Man. I realy loved that product. Keeps me some what happy and partial gets the feeling of safety. And then, how many computers can I install this license on?
- Ashraf
@DJ: Me and you both. I only maintain a Facebook account for dotTech and freebies.
@Ashraf: Some people just don't want to be in facebooks's network. Add me to that list ;)

@John: Ah, yes, you are right. That is very odd. Clearly the promotion is being run via Facebook so everyone can grab it; but from an ethical standpoint is it okay for us non-Turks to grab this freebie? I am not sure. Typically if it was a magazine specific freebie I would say "no it is not okay" but this promotion is being run via a Facebook fanpage, which is not magazine specific nor limited to only a few people – it is open to anyone that has a Facebook account.
- John
The very bottom line in the window with the registration code right from where your red arrow begins.
Yes it is kind of odd considering where I'm positioned on this earth, but hey I'm not complaining coz it worked for me.
- chuck
octopunk-Thanks-got another comp you can try to install on to see if you get a "wrong code" message?? Or anyone confirm multiple installs with the same code they have received??
@chuck: No, my code ends with F9AA
- Ashraf
@John: Where does it say "NOTE: This promotion is valid only in Turkey"? I am not in Turkey and I was able to get this without any problems; and it seems kind of odd a promotion via a Facebook fanpage is only for a specific country considering it is open to all Facebook members who like the page. I am not calling you a liar, I am just curious (obviously I don't understand Turkish).
- John
I got my new registration number and then went back into my existing Zemana and entered the new number, I now have 365 more days to go.
I did notice the fine print at the bottom saying "NOTE: This promotion is valid only in Turkey" if that means anything……….
- chuck
Guess only one license per FB member-tried on another comp and reg code was the same,but not accepted.Bummer!! (yes I used copy/paste)-Is everyone's code ending 9138 ?
- a simple happy man
You don't have to use Facebook and you can deactivate all of it in between times when you need it for offers like this.
That way you get no emails etc from them or anyone else.
The next time you need it for something like this you just login as for any other web site and your account is immediately active again.
In fact if you don't use your own real name or email no one who knows you can find you anyway.
Then it's basically just like a deposit box waiting for a freebie to come along for you to go along and withdraw
- John
I have been using Zemana for the past year since their last giveaway, and to be honest I would be lost without it now.
- Socal70xr7
This software is awesome! It picked up the fact that Picassa wanted to be given full control of my webcam. And with security concerns over Google being like big brother I refused. The Picassa program will not install without that ability. So now I no longer use Picassa. I emailed there tech support and never got an answer about there ability to access the webcam whenever they wanted.
- Shueygal
My reasons are primarily age related. At 70+ I really don't have a need for a facebook account. I really want this software after everyone praising it, so perhaps this ol' granny just may have to get an account.
Thanks for your continuing support Ashraf, it is truly appreciated.

Raymond loves this software, and highly praises it, if I recall correctly. Wow man, there's like a flurry of good freebies today.

When I click on the buraya button, it just redirects me to the exact same facebook page with the buraya link. I can't navigate to the main website to get the key.

@charles tunis: I have never really liked CNET reviews, but yeah CNET really likes Zemana AntiLogger.
@Rob: Glad you like it! I am sure Zemana will love to have you as a customer.
@David Goldstein: No problem! I hope my last reply to you didn't offend; I said it in a joking manner.
Ok – my mistake – I did not read carefully enough – I did not click on 'Like' first – after that the ubiquitous word 'buraya' appeared.
Thanks Ashraf. Had to use face book but this seems worth it. Installed very fast and easy. I use Avira and they seem to get along great. my system is very clean(one infection in last 6 months and dirty little bug locked me out of safe mode) and this software will add to my defenses. I find Some of the best software comes from other countries .(Im in Canada,)
Thanks for the giveaway heads up, this looks like some thing I will buy when the year is up.
This is a good anti keylogger – take a look at CNET's latest review…
- Ashraf
@David Goldstein: You have to become a fan of their fanpage in order to see it. I didn't tell you to Like their page for the fun of it. =P
There is no word 'buraya' to click on.
- Ashraf
@Shueygal: Yeah it is a promotion through their Facebook fanpage so you will need a Facebook account.
May I ask why you refuse to join Facebook? I mean, I am not saying become an active Facebook member (I am not a Facebook user) but I highly suggest having a account that you can use for such promotions because more and more developers are running promotions via their fanpages. It is your choice, though.
- Shueygal
This is crazy….do you mean that I have to join Facebook in order to get this software. I do not want to join Facebook, and certainly won't in order to get some software. Can someone please enlighten me here.

@Anonymous: Wait is this my brain, your brain, his brain, or her brain that we are talking about here? =P

Very good. I added minced garlic to the mixture but other then that I followed the recipe as written. We all enjoyed this and it made for a quick weeknight meal. Made for Spring PAC 2013
I love this recipe! It has been in heavy rotation in our house since we found it on the Campbell's website. We occasionally saute garlic and fresh mushrooms to add to it. Thanks for posting! This is a great one!
Absolutely delicious! Had to substitute cream of chicken condensed soup because my husband isn't fond of mushrooms, but it was still amazing.

The original Solid Edge designs that are now being modified were created using an order-based modelling approach.
There is no problem importing these into Solid Edge with synchronous technology, according to Jaeger.
"Solid Edge is designed to work with both ordered or synchronous features and allows the designer to use either as needed.
As an added bonus synchronous technology can also edit imported models not matter what CAD system was used to create them,"
