Great location, away from the hustle and bustle (but literally only 2 min walk away) of the old town, across the river.
We got a nice quiet room on the 2nd floor, with "townview" (more like a view on the houses across the road). Ask them to show you a couple of rooms and make your choice that way.
The rooms are big, the bathrooms huge and the bathtub even huger! There is a little reading nook, a desktop, wireless internet, TV with a lot of English channels, nice fluffy bathrobes and big towels. On the downside the beds are quite hard, the pillows horrible and the aircon doesn't work very well.
Breakfast is fine, everything you can think of really.
The do laundry, and rent out (motor)bikes, but I'd recommend to just use their next-door neighbour for those.

Our long local nightmare has finally ended, as the Lakers are no longer oh-for-the-preseason following a 98-95 win over Sacramento on Wednesday night in Vegas (baby!). As is generally the case during the exhibition season, the quality of play was inconsistent, as coach Phil Jackson worked a lot of players through the lineup in a variety of combinations, and the game grew a lot tighter than expected in the fourth. Still, it was undoubtedly a better effort than anything the Lakers put forth in London and Barcelona.
Ron Artest led the way with 18 points (including 4-of-5 from three-point range), four rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block, plus some typically solid work defensively. Pau Gasol was his typically productive self, finishing with 18 points and 12 rebounds.
Three Up:
Matt Barnes: Eight points, four boards, three assists, a block and a steal in 17 minutes of run. He was effective on the run, finishing a couple of nice plays on the break, moved the ball well, and was able to get himself into the lane offensively. More important, Barnes showed the sort of defensive versatility that will make him a valuable asset for the Lakers this season. Not only did he mark his opposing small forward, at other points he also picked up the extremely physical Tyreke Evans, meaning Kobe Bryant didn't have to. Just as it was last year when Artest arrived, Barnes gives the Lakers another viable option to help take pressure off Bryant in difficult individual matchups.
Shannon Brown: Last season, Brown was on his way to a strong season before hurting the thumb on his shooting hand. From there, both his shot and handle suffered. Once again healthy, Brown showed a great deal of confidence Wednesday night. He put the ball on the floor effectively, and was rock solid from the perimeter, hitting a series of open jumpers from both wings.
Energy: It's not always easy to get up a lather for an exhibition game, particularly for the two-time defending champions, but perhaps aided by an incredibly enthusiastic crowd at Thomas and Mack, the Lakers worked hard up and down the roster. Whether it was Lamar Odom hitting the floor for a loose ball in the first half or Sasha Vujacic ripping the ball from the extremely large DeMarcus Cousins in the fourth, the Lakers played with regular season energy Wednesday night.
Overall, the positives outweighed the negatives (particularly on a night where the Kings shot under 40 percent), but there's always room to pick some nits.
Three down:
Kobe's shooting: I've said it before, I'll say it again -- it doesn't really matter if his shots fall in mid-October, as long as Kobe moves freely, unencumbered by his surgically repaired right knee. He did. That said, the shots didn't fall. On his two-of-10 shooting night, only one of the two was a jumper, and overall he ran his preseason mark, for those keeping score, to four-of-28. Sometime next month, I suspect we'll look back at this stretch as a curiosity at best, if we bother looking back at all, but those are the numbers.
The stretch run: No issues with the effort, but thanks to some defensive breakdowns the Lakers almost turned a 15-point lead after three into five minutes of overtime nobody wanted to see. Thirty-six points for Sacto in the final frame, after the Kings managed only 12 in the third. That won't make the coaches happy.
Free throws: They were often a problem last season, and tonight's 60-percent mark (18-for-30) didn't exactly set the world on fire. Gasol missed four of his eight attempts, while Derrick Caracter only made one in four tries. Only Brown (a perfect five-of-five) gets a gold star from the stripe.
More to come.

Day 13 - A Game I've Played More Than 5 Times
Not Unlucky
Sep 02, 2011 10:18AM PST
Across the Gamecube and Wii versions of the game, I've played The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess more than five times. (If you've seen some of my earlier entries in this challenge, you've probably started to see a pattern and it keeps going. I'm doing my best to break it while avoiding using the same game multiple times.)
I got the Gamecube version during Christmas break after it launched and the Wii version a year after that when I first got my Wii. I had been waiting for this game for so long and I finally had it in my hands. I put it in my Gamecube and played through it. I loved it so much. It became one of the games that I want to play again as soon as I finished it. I played through it and did different challenges. I got all the Heart Pieces and upgrades. I finished it with only three hearts and I did that again but with no fairies and no magic armor.

Ive only beaten Twilight twice. I might have to revisit that one. However, the one Zelda game that Ive beaten countless times is Link to the Past. Over 20 times Ive conquered Hyrule and the Darkworld and Its still a blast to play.
LoZPosted: Sep 02, 2011 12:00AM PST by Spectrix
Yeah, I didn't start buying a lot of games until a few years ago so I only played and replayed what I had. I love A Link to the Past and unless I change my mind, it will show up another day of the challenge. It's next on my list of Zelda games to play before Skyward Sword comes out in November.

At age (1997-1999)10-12 I was a victim of molestation. My oldest sister went to child protective services and spoke to them about her concerns. They then had my mother take me to the office to talk to me. At the time I was still a victim and was scared to speak out because the man was still in the home. The case got closed without further investigation. At age (2004)17 I went back to child protective services and disclosed to them my abuse and told them of concerns I had that his two daughters that he gained custody of would fall victim to his abuse also. They took notes and pushed me on my way. They never reported it to a higher authority (investigators). In 2012 the two young girls disclosed that they were victims. Our local paper ran the story that a local man was arrested for molestation. At this time I came forward again and disclosed my abuse. He has been indicted on 18 counts mine included. Do I have ground for a lawsuit against child protective services.

Creamy Cauliflower Soup With Feta
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 30 mins
This is from the Montreal Gazette. I do plan on making this since I've been in the mood for soup lately. It's from the Best Comfort Food Recipes by Johanna Burkhard.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 medium leek, white and light green partd only, sliced
- 5 cups small cauliflower florets (about 1 small head)
- 1 cup peeled diced potato (about 1 medium)
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup 10% cream or 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, plus extra for garnish
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
- 1⁄2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Cut off the dark green top of the leek, cut down the centre almost to the root end, slice and immerse in cold water to remove any dirt.
- Drain in a colander or dry in a salad spinner.
- Combine leek, cauliflower, potato and stock in a large saucepan and heat to boiling over medium-high heat, then lower heat to low, cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Let cool slightly, then puree in batches until smooth in food processor or blender.
- Return to saucepan, stir in cream and dill, and season with salt and pepper.
- Reheat until hot, but do not let boil or soup may curdle.
- Serve in heated bowls, each topped with some of the cheese and dill.
Most Helpful
Simply delicious! The feta is a nice change of pace from cheddar and the cauliflower is not strong tasting. I thought I had cream but no so added a patty of butter with the milk. My blender has died-alas-so I used an old fashioned hand beater to puree and worked fine. Thank you Studentchef for sharing.
Made for the *Pet Parade* event, this is a great recipe & makes 4 generous servings hearty enough to be a meal if served w/crusty rolls as I did. BUT it is also a low-cal easy-fix, ingredient-friendly & just darn good. Using my magic bullet for the puree step, I made a full recipe, added only garlic, opted to use 1T ea of parsley + dill & otherwise made as written. I was a bit unclear about the feta as the only time it is mentioned in the prep is its use as a garnish. I decided to puree roughly 1/4 cup w/the soup mixture & use the rest as garnish, so that amt may not have been exact. DH gave this 5 enthusiastic stars & said it was 2nd only to my lobster bisque. Thx for sharing this recipe w/us. DH will ask for it often & I'll be happy to comply. :-)
Thanks for posting this recipe - I love fetta and it was such a great addition to this soup. I can't believe I never though to try it before. Very comforting but with a great zing. I sauteed the leek in olive oil first before adding the rest of the ingredients to simmer. I also added bit of ground cumin, which worked well.

City officials plan to install a gunfire detection system to help Baltimore police pinpoint where shootings are happening, technology that a previous police commissioner once called a "horrible, horrible failure."
The system, which supporters say has advanced significantly since 2008 when then-Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III maligned it, would use acoustic sensors installed over at least three square miles in an undetermined community where guns are frequently fired.
The Police Department intends to use a $370,000 federal grant to help pay for the equipment, for which bids have been requested. Companies must submit proposals by Aug. 10.

A transmission control scheme for media access in sensor networks
Data transmission
Data transmission, digital transmission, or digital communications is the physical transfer of data over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires, optical fibres, wireless communication channels, and storage media. The data are represented as an electromagnetic signal, such as an electrical voltage, radiowave, microwave, or infrared signal.
more from Wikipedia
Wireless sensor network
A wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of spatially distributed autonomous sensors to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, vibration, pressure, humidity, motion or pollutants and to cooperatively pass their data through the network to a main location. The more modern networks are bi-directional, also enabling control of sensor activity.
more from Wikipedia
Mass media
Mass media refers collectively to all media technologies that are intended to reach a large audience via mass communication. Broadcast media (also known as electronic media) transmit their information electronically and comprise television, film and radio, movies, CDs, DVDs and some other devices like cameras and video consoles.

Efficient energy use
Efficient energy use, sometimes simply called energy efficiency, is the goal of efforts to reduce the amount of energy required to provide products and services. For example, insulating a home allows a building to use less heating and cooling energy to achieve and maintain a comfortable temperature. Installing fluorescent lights or natural skylights reduces the amount of energy required to attain the same level of illumination compared to using traditional incandescent light bulbs.

Duty cycle
A duty cycle is the time that an entity spends in an active state as a fraction of the total time under consideration. The term is often used pertaining to electrical devices, e.g. , switching power supplies. It is also sometimes used pertaining to living systems such as the firing of action potentials by neurons. In an electrical device, a 60% duty cycle means the power is on 60% of the time and off 40% of the time.
more from Wikipedia
Mobile computing
Mobile computing is a form of human¿computer interaction by which a computer is expected to be transported during normal usage. Mobile computing has three aspects: mobile communication, mobile hardware, and mobile software. The first aspect addresses communication issues in ad-hoc and infrastructure networks as well as communication properties, protocols, data formats and concrete technologies. The second aspect is on the hardware, e.g. , mobile devices or device components.
more from Wikipedia
Node (networking)
In communication networks, a node (Latin nodus, ¿knot¿) is a connection point, either a redistribution point or a communication endpoint. The definition of a node depends on the network and protocol layer referred to. A physical network node is an active electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of sending, receiving, or forwarding information over a communications channel. A passive distribution point such as a distribution frame or patch panel is consequently not a node.

While "The Last Waltz" is usually the critics' favorite rock movie,
"The Kids Are Alright" has always done it for me. Basically, we have a
career overview of one of the greatest rock bands ever, with numerous
characteristics that make it truly exceptional.
Here's what makes this movie really unique: First, it was made by a fan, which gives it a fan's perspective (often more perceptive than a band's own self-image or, needless to say, the perception of a record company employee). But more importantly, the Who, always one of the most "down-to-earth" (and self-critical) rock bands, were willing to co-operate with the filmmaker (Jeff Stein), even going so far as to perform two exclusive concerts for the purpose of filming.
The movie thus comes together as a fan's dream: a comprehensive selection of live clips that span the band's career up to that point (including brilliant early footage and such career-defining performances as Woodstock and the band's appearance on the Smothers Brothers' TV show), along with truly insightful interview footage.
One comes away from this movie with a genuine appreciation for the combination of creativity and humility that really made the Who unique among "superstar" rock bands. Can you imagine Led Zeppelin referring to their own work as crap in the middle of "The Song Remains The Same"? The Beatles created their own career-spanning retrospective 15 years later with "The Beatles Anthology", but that film, made 25 years after the band broke up, seems much more concerned with defining and cementing the band's place in history (especially the McCartney interview segments) than with presenting the band "warts and all".
Even in "The Last Waltz", while much of The Band is somewhat disparaging about their early careers, there is still a real sense that Scorcese and Robertson are attempting to define a historically significant moment in time rather than just capturing The Band as it was (I've read that the rest of the Band members didn't even know Robertson was planning to break up the Band until after the concert!).
By contrast, "The Kids Are Alright" provides us with a refreshingly honest portrait of a band who have always tried to be honest with their fans. By combining the perceptive eye of a true fan with a cooperative band who weren't concerned with protecting (or defining) their "image", we are left with a true rarity: a documentary on a "superstar" that is neither concerned with deifying nor tearing down its subject, but instead gives us a truly satisfying (and entertaining) portrait. Plus, some of the best "70s Arena Rock" ever recorded! All in all, it adds up to a minor masterpiece.
In some ways this is best the movie ever. Errrm... make that one way.
Let me put it this way. If you're as big a fan of The Who as I am, The
Kids Are Alright is as alright as movies get. Director Jeff Stein was
probably an even bigger Who-fan than yours truly, and you get that vibe
from every aspect of the movie: the chosen footage, the editing and the
chosen narrative (or lack thereof) chosen. TKAA is a documentary, but
unlike documentary-makers fashionable today Stein didn't set out to
make his points in a Michael Moore-ish style, with himself as the
narrating voice-over and on-screen interviewer. Stein lets the footage
speak for itself, only slightly suggesting conclusions that can be made
through editing, and only once serving as an off-screen interviewer.
If there is one point Stein tries to make, it is that the Who were the most interesting/wild/intelligent/contradictory/refined/loony/crude Rock 'n' Roll band in the world. And therefore the most fascinating. He didn't have to turn to the viewer and say that in person: the Who themselves are their own best spokespeople. The Kids Are Alright isn't ABOUT the Who, it IS the Who. The a-chronological editing, live as well as mimed performances and contradictory quotes spanning two decades make a rich collage of fifteen years of Rock 'n' Roll mayhem.
Editing was Stein's weapon of choice to make TKAA a double-edged sword. People can try to find a deeper meaning in the director's decisions and/or draw their own conclusions. Or you can just kick back and relax and let it be the ultimate party-DVD. Watching this movie, you really get the sensation of hanging with the Who, addiction, hearing problems, impromptu strip sessions and all. And with Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle, Keith Moon and Pete Townshend around, there's never a dull moment.
This is THE must see rock film. I can't think of any others that compare.
The Stones' `Gimme Shelter' is great for reasons quite different than the
music contained therein (of which the live material isn't very good).
`Monterey Pop,' which features the Who, is certainly my favorite concert
film from the era because of the culture it captured on its frames, as
as the eclecticism. The Hendrix performance alone makes that event
But the `Monterey' film is very passive & observational. In one sense,
is why I adore it so much, in another, more intellectual sense, it is
lacking a philosophy about the material it depicts. I suppose the
is really to document & be intentionally unobtrusive (to the viewers &
actual subjects), which in my opinion is really a type of non-philosophy.
The Kids Are Alright, however, epitomizes a certain condensed, irreverent
and bombastic type of rock and roll that Pete Townshend has always been
ideal spokesman for. This is perhaps the only rock and roll film that is
solely about the raw power and visceral effects of this music. Its primary
goal is to capture that essence and to show you - not tell you - that the
Who were the greatest rock & roll band ever. Of course, this is an age old
debate between Stones, Who & Beatles fans. What's the answer?? I don't
as I love them all, and I really don't care either. The ability of this
to make you forget about those other bands, however, is undeniable. Watch
this film in the proper setting & you'll be convinced, at least for the
moment, that the Who were the best.
`The Kids Are Alright' is not an entirely professional job. Scenes sometimes present themselves through hatchet editing & sloppy placement. It is non-chronological and choppy. Interviews range from nonsensical to pretentious. In the case of Keith Moon, we believe that he never took anything seriously and appears to be caught consistently interchanging the personalities of entirely different people. Roger Daltry has surprisingly very, very little to say. John Entwistle - not as surprisingly - has even less to say & remains in the shadows throughout. But what would otherwise be considered technical movie shortcomings are exactly what the Who excel in; the texture of this film is much like the Who's music itself and therefore highly appropriate. This is why we're only treated to flashes of seriousness before the façades are dropped and the kinetic circus begins anew. While bits & pieces of the Who dynamic can perhaps be articulated, the band's aura existed first & foremost in their music and physical energy (there is a great clip of Townshend patiently listening to the intricate analysis of his music by a German television rock critic. After the critic finishes his exhaustive treatise, Townshend mulls over his possible answer for a moment & finally responds, `yeah.'). The intellectualism, rebellion, trendiness, wildness and downright punk-ishness of the Who is all captured here in its full Moon Era glory.
I would definitely encourage younger music lovers & musicians to watch this, draw comparisons & ponder the direction rock and roll has taken. Is the Dave Matthews Band our generation's answer to the Who? If it is, please wake me when the funeral for rock has ended so we can start over again, thank you very much.
Until just recently, I didn't realize that the `Baba O'Reilly' and `Won't Get Fooled Again' performances were Moon's last with the band. The director actually had the Who perform these especially for this film as he was unable to find `definitive' versions of the songs in the Who film archive. They are indeed amazing.downright sizzling, actually. Quintessential Who.
This 2-disc DVD is an absolute essential for any Who fan and perhaps
the only documentary film ever made that captures the essence of
rock'n'roll's importance to youth culture. Its brilliance largely
belongs to the irresistibly appealing personalities and unparalleled
live performances of the Who, but can also be partially attributed to
director Jeff Stein, who was a nineteen year-old fledgling photographer
and Who freak in 1978 when he persuaded the group to front him the cash
to make a movie. What results is a warts 'n' all portrait of the most
honest, inspired, and inspiring of rock's superheroes.
The film begins with the now-infamous performance of 'My Generation' on the Smothers Brothers show and never slows down. Included are hilarious outtakes of staged antics originally intended for a Monkees-style TV show that never aired, a wonderfully irreverent segment featuring John Entwistle using gold records for target practice on the lawn of his estate, priceless video and still photography of Keith Moon at his hotel room-smashing best, and vintage interview material with Townshend, charting his development from insolent young mod (at one point, when asked to comment on the relative quality of the Beatles' music by a smug British TV host, he refers to the Fab Four as "flippin' lousy") to a soul-searching artist trying to find meaningful space for himself in a form he fears he has outgrown. There are liberal doses from 'Tommy' and 'Who's Next,' but equal attention is paid to the group's early mod years and their more radio-friendly late-seventies era releases. Included in its entirety is the group's performance of 'A Quick One' from "The Rolling Stones' Rock 'n' Roll Circus," a TV show produced by the Stones which was never aired due to the Stones' opinion that they had been badly upstaged by the Who (only a fragment of the same clip was featured in the theatrical release of the film due to copyright restrictions). Surprisingly absent is any material from 'Quadrophenia,' an unexplained omission but one that doesn't really glare given that the footage is not arranged chronologically.
None of the Who's studio releases ever equaled their brilliance onstage, and Stein loads the film with impossibly hot concert footage, including mind-blowing performances (some borrowed from the Woodstock film) of live staples 'Young Man Blues,' 'Pinball Wizard,' 'See Me Feel Me/Listening to You,' and 'Sparks.'
Indirectly, 'The Kids are Alright' is also a cautionary tale: we see Moon transformed in a mere ten years from a lean young prankster into a bloated caricature of himself (Moon died shortly before the film was released; his last performance with the group was the concert at Shepperton Studios staged for the film at Jeff Stein's request). We see Townshend joking about his hearing loss and struggling with his fear of growing old and irrelevant. Entwistle dryly remarks, 'I'm too old to enjoy my money;' Roger Daltrey dismisses the cultural importance of rock music, stating flatly that 'it doesn't stand up.' Townshend confesses his frustration at the pressure he feels to satisfy the expectations of the group's army of frenzied fans. By the end, the group seems weary of itself and its overblown reputation.
Nevertheless, the film ends on a note of triumph, with a manic encore at Shepperton of "Won't Get Fooled Again," climaxing with a slo-mo shot of Townshend leaping and then sliding across the stage on his knees, followed by an end-credit coda of "Rock is Dead (Long Live Rock)". The DVD set includes director commentary, a recent interview with Daltrey, Who trivia quizzes, and isolated tracks of John Entwistle's extraordinary bass work on several classic tunes.
Definitive evidence of the Who's stature as one of the most influential and inimitable of the titans of rock. Anyone who loves the power and energy of a live rock performance will come away from this film slack-jawed and looking around for a guitar to smash.
This film came out shortly after Who drummer Keith Moon's death and as such,
is a hybrid between a tribute to his work with the band and what it was
probably originally intended to be, a collection of performances and
material showcasing their development through their first quarter-century.
There are some great live performances here: including a smashing live version of the extended Won't Get Fooled Again', stuff from the sixties' German pop show Beat Club, and many more. There are interviews (including the famous one with Russell Harty from the mid-seventies), and other bits and pieces put together. This was always the definitive line-up of the band, when their songs had spirit and their performances were technically accomplished with a touch of humour.
The Who are many things- loud, sometimes hilarious, and even an influence to most of the rock following it (including Punk), but what they are ultimately are amazing. In they're time with drummer Keith Moon (and even a little afterwards), they created some of the best stuff to come from a guitar, synthesizer, drum, harmonica, etc, etc. And this documentary follows that spirit in showing the groups most famous hits including "Baba O'Reiley", "I Can't Explain", "Who Are You" and "Summertime Blues" among a whole bunch. In these songs and inbewteen them the Who explain the inspiration for they're hits, they're hilarity (seeing Keith Moon for no reason starting to strip is dead pan), and how they replaced the broken guitars. Excellent in nearly ever way, shape and form, right up there with Woodstock and Spinal Tap. A+
TKAA is a great mix of live and lip-synched performances, interviews and
funny clips. The perfomances are stellar, particularly "Baba O'Riley" and
"Won't Get Fooled Again". The Who are presented wonderfully here, all four
getting their own moments.
The undisputed star of the show is drummer Keith Moon. His interview with Ringo Starr is hilarious. Pete Townshend is runner up, shown in all of his bitter youth glory. Roger Daltrey is given time during the perfomances to show himself off as a wonderful lead singer and the essense of the Tommy character. Only bassist John Entwistle is short changed, given very few moments on-screen. Yet his line about being too old to enjoy his money is classic. A must see for any rock fan.
Jeff Stein's 'TKaA' introduced me to the dysfunctionally co-dependent family
that was The Who in their more-than-full-volume, willfully insane glory days
of Keith Moon. Their balls-to-the-walls, ear-shattering, finger-slashing,
skull-splitting, hammers-of-hell, power-plus-volume blues-based rock & roll
put their contemporaries deservedly to shame (Townsend didn't pull punches
in his criticism) and set a high bar above all that wreckage which their
successors have yet to reach.
It doesn't cover all of The Who's KM-era music (Quadrophenia, Who by Numbers) nor does it dig up the worst/best of the dirt (Daltrey repeatedly KO'ing a whiney Townsend over the years) but it captures as only a fan's we're-not-worthy devotion can the band's intense, sometimes-paranoid craziness as well as their self-knowing, self-mocking intelligence about their craziness -- and their true worth in the annals of rock & roll. Stein deserves a spot in Cleveland right next to them.
Maybe being such a fanatic of the Who I'm downright dogmatic in my beliefs that this is a great 70's rock film. The performances are exciting. Pete Townshend dishes out philosophy of rock music that only he can. The editing is quick so the movie never drags(i.e.The song remains the same) Many of the scenes are downright funny. Not only is it a movie that shows how talented the Who were as a band. It shows they could put on a great performance off stage as well( such as being interviewed) It's probably one of the very few rock movies from the 70's that has charm. Even though I do think it helps to be a big fan when watching it. But I think that's true of any rock movie or concert video.
Well, I've been sat here for the last five minutes thinking what I
could write about the Greatest Rock 'n Roll band in the World, or more
to the point, one of the best Rock Documentaries to come out of the
Seeing The Who live only four time's since 13th July 1985 to November 10th 2000. The original line up would have been great, but time and history say different.
This is where Jeff Stein has a wonderful idea (the film was being made when Keith was still very much alive, but as reference to today's generation) if you can no longer go to the mountain, then he has brought it to you, enter stage right, The Kids are Alright, 109 minutes of pure Rock 'n Roll documented history.
The film start's of with some fantastic black and white footage (the early gigs must have been out of this world) of one of the hardest working bands to come out of the Sixties and to continue to World domination, a cliché I know, but it works.
Interviewing them must have been a night where you earned your money, poor Russell Harty, (in case of Keith Moon break the glass).
The 1970's tracks see them develop into a real tight outfit, if not a "little older" , performing most of their classics without fault. Jeff Stein has done a great job of bringing together this visually collective musical collage to a wider audience. I say lets turn the record over and begin side "B"...
Thanks Jeff.

He will be in the level of Roach, Stweard, and Nacho IMO.
All time, he's behind Futch, Goldman, and Arcel

Cus was a different kinda coached he wanted to be more then a coach get to know his fighter... im not really prone on great coaches or really payed attention to history where there concerned.... i know names, but only Cus from Tyson documenaries etc.... He seemed hard but caring, compassionate but strict, i know alot of Stewards fighters dont listen to him... Also Roach is becoming a robot, Goosen trains who??, never heard of Arcel, etc... I know Dundee was good...

I mean Cus D'Amato trained two fighters who became world class champions from Olympics to inside the professional ring. He trained them since they were kids. Even Nacho, Steward, and Roach never attained anything like that all the popular boxers they train or had came to them all grown men or successful boxers.
Cus D'Amato was a trainer above all others and equal only to a few.

However, how important was Rooney to Tyson success? Granted D'Mato was Rooney mentor. But, we're not going to give Futch credit for Pac are we?
But, OK Nacho trained Zaragosa HOF'er, the Marquez both will be in HOF, Lopez HOF'er. Who's was successful already when Nacho started training them?
Why is Cus ahead of Nacho? Just out of curiosity?
Would you put Cus' ahead of Dundee?
How is Cus' on the same level of Goldman, Futch, and Arcel?
is no way in hell Cus' is on the level of those 3 as a trainer.

Nice tool to see.
The most handy little tool ever.
Great idea to solve the problem of installing pre-requisites on developer PCs. Removes the barrier to using non-standard components. Package Manager idea is clearly taken from the Linux world, probably the only good part of that, LOL. Good to see this used in a positive way in the Windows world.

used this last monday night. Have used so much other stuff down my drains and nothing was working. thought i would have to call the plumber (again). tues still water backing up in the basement, didn't see like as much, but still had to pump it out twice. the next morning when I looked there was a little bit but thought I would just wait. So wed. morning after 1 shower and a load of laundry, still had only a little bit of water. so thought I would wait until my roommate got home from work and pump it all out after she showers. So before dark I looked in the basement and less water than was there. HUM! so i decided to wait until morning to see. This morning when I looked down the floor was ((DRY) What? I took my niece to school, stopped to check on my mom and came home around 12:30 this afternoon. my roommate was off today, was doing laundry. I peeked down stairs. NO WATER!!!!!!! maybe it just took a little while for the stuff to clean it out. I AM SO EXCITED. I will be using this every few months just to keep it clean. i would give it 10 gold stars if I could.
I had a clogged main drain, as it was close to the holidays, I dreaded calling a plumber. A co-worker told me about this product, so I thought I would give it a try. The instructions on the bottle recommend using 2 gallons. So I figured $20 or $$$ for a plumber. I poured the first gallon down the drain on Saturday night, Sunday morning I noticed some improvement. So I dumped the 2nd gallon down Sunday morning before running some errands. I waited the 8-10 hours, then I flushed it with boiling water. It worked!! Main drain is completely clear and running freely! Will use a gallon eeach month for maintenance from now on! I highly recommend this product
I've used MLC a couple times in the past and it was like a jackhammer on clogs. Just moved into a new place and found water backing up when running the washer. So I got a bottle and let it sit for 8 hours.
Dumped about 3 gallons of boiling water down the trap after and ran the hot water. Water would flow, but sustained water flow was still backing up. Turned out I had a truly massive root ball in the line, as the previous owners hadn't been doing proper drain maintenance.. Afterward, running water through every line in the house only made the line gurgle a bit with ZERO backup. So I now have a nice, perfectly clear line and will keep it that way in the future. Basically MLC every 6 months and a bottle of copper sulfate in the spring.
We have a septic tank, and thought that was full. A service provider checked that, and said everthing was flowing through that OK.
It turned out that our 75' 4" main line along the length of our basement was clogged instead. Whenever we used the main floor kitchen sink, dishwasher, basement bar sink and washer, the water came back out the basement bar sink or behind the washer entry for the 4" pipe. Ran a 50' snake both ways twice (through the end - cleanout, and through the origin - at the laundry end cap). Picked up a little debris with the snake, but the line remained clogged.
Tried this product as directed; used one full bottle, poured in overnight. Hot water flushed in the morning as directed.
That morning, to test the result, I filled up the basement bar sink, and then saw the water "whoosh" out in the drain as a tornado. Then, washed clothes with no backup. Finally, used the dishwasher - that also was back to normal. That was a week ago, and still clear!
Had I known about it when the clog began, would have saved me the cleaning up of the smells and mess of the backup.
We had a clog between the clean out pipe and the street and 1 gallon of this stuff took care of it. We had a couple of gurgles over a 3 day period and then every appliance gurgled and there was a puddle around the clean out pipe.
I poured the whole gallon into the clean out and could only wait 3.5 hours. I poured one pan of hot water down the clean out, and 2 pans each of near boiling water, but not actually boiling, down the bathtub, shower drain and toilet closest to the main drain. A few minutes later no more gurgling at all.
I believe the sinks drained better than they have since we moved in 2 years ago. I'm keeping the other gallon for follow up use in a few days to make sure things are flowing smoothly.
This product worked EXACTLY as described. The directions stated to wait 8 hours. Our clog was going in a mere 2 hours. I was having anxiety over having to call an emergency plumber... This stuff did the trick for under $10.
I purchased two bottles of this product in an attempt to avoid calling a plumber to unclog our main sewage line. I followed all product instructions and sadly it did not work. The next day the plumber came and sent a snake 30 feet down our main line to unclog the line without issue. The product is guaranteed to work or your money back. I scanned the receipt to the email address listed on the guarantee along with my address and a brief description of my experience, and a couple weeks later I received a full refund for the two bottles I purchased. Maybe it was the place our sewage line was clogged (30ft from nearest drain point in basement), but sometimes the blockage is just too much for this product. However, the refund I received was hassle free and I would have no problem recommending this to someone trying to avoid a $100+ plumber bill.
Follow directions, and enjoy drainage
My drain was stopped over the 2014 holidays and I went on line to find a product that was well recommended, affordable and available. Many times over I read that Instant Power Main Line Cleaner did the best job ever, and when it didn't a refund would be issued. Very encourage I could solve my problem, I ordered four gallon online at Walmart. I didn't want to wait for them to be mailed and drove to get them as soon as notified they were in the store. Sadly for me, Instant Power Main Line Cleaner, 1 gal did not clear the drain for me. I used all four gallons and followed the instructions to the note. Still, not the success others had raved about. No help for me. Then I emailed the receipt from my Walmart website account to Instant Power Main Line Cleaner, as well as mailed a copy of the receipt USPS. Carol at Instant Power Main Line Cleaner Customer Service acknowledge my email and informed me she was unable to open the receipt attachment. I apologized in my return email and explained I has also mailed a hard copy of the receipt. She emailed me "thanks". Hearing or receiving nothing in over a month, I emailed Carol again. So far, I have receive no email, no refund, and the product did not work for me. COMPLETELY USELESS.
Works like magic - if you heed the directions! Must be clear of water. This is not Drano. First instance was where a plumber snaked the cleanout, rust came up in both bathroom sinks, and he said 'you got a problem', and left! Sulphuric acid didn't work. Poured one gallon Main Line Cleaner down the sink, waited ten hours, ran hot water. Presto! Second instance was in my kitchen sink. Had tried generic drain cleaner, Drano gel, sulphuric acid, hyrdrochloric acid #which ate a hole in my metal pipe#, CLR......got maybe 50% better. Ran two gallons of Main Line Cleaner down the cleanout. Done!
My toilet was flushing returning low water and my bathtub was draining slow. I went to Walmart and saw this stuff had a money back guarantee and figured I had nothing to lose. I used as directed and the next morning everything was back to normal with one application. I have told several people about it and they have had similar results. I don't know how they are able to do it at such a low price point but I'm very grateful they have! Awesome product!
Used it 3x so far. Has a money back guarantee, never had to use. Works every time :). Am going to use the suggestion from the first review to use 1x a month for maintenance ;).
I bought it and used it in my kitchen sink. I have 2 sides and one has a garbage disposal. I used it in the other side to avoid any problems but it flowed through into the other sink. It's been in 12 hours now and hasn't moved at all and not only that but now there is water all over the floor because it ate holes through my garbage disposal! I don't know what I'm going to do now :(.
Smell, slow drainage completed resolved.
I have used this product for the past 4 years or so. My two plumbers hired to clean out a main house drain could not get their equipment through the 3 inch pipe. I placed a gallon of MAIN LINE CLEANER in the pipe following instructions and PRAYED. The next day the line was open and flowing as if it were a new pipe. I now put 1/2 a container in every 6 months and I have not had a repeat problem. Thanks so much for the product...I sometimes have a problem finding it in the Walmart stores because it is not normally kept with the other drain cleaners even though it is the BEST AT WHAT IT DOES.
This stuff is great. I had issues with my washer backing up into the kitchen sink. I called a plumber and paid $150. It fixed it but it started having issues again a year later. I didn't want to pay the plumber again so I tried this. I followed the instructions exactly and it has had no issues for over a year. yesterday I had issues with tthe drain in my basment backing up so I used it again and it worked again. Saved me at least $130 twice now. I would for sure reccocment someone trying this before they call a plumber and its guaranteed or your money back so if it doesn't work they will give you your money back.
I bought this before and I have no doubts about it. The directions must be followed. Pour the entire bottle in sewer pipe and let it set for 7 hours, then pour lots of boiled water to rinse it out. For heavy clogs use a second bottle. And first it didn't seem like it wasn't going to work but my toliet was giving me problems so I gave it a few plunges and it cleared up. I recommend this cleaner to clean the pipe and use for maintenance every so often when sludge starts to build up.
This product saved me from having a very expensive plumbing bill.
I spent over 200.00 on drain snake rental but 4 gallons of the product seems to have fixed my sewage problem.
Thanks to Main LIne cleaner
I use this product once a month, When you live in the country and depend o septic systems , you do not want a breakdown or backup and this keeps the system working good. It is a little high priced but not nearly as high as repair work and a plumber.
I have to rate this a 1 star because I bought 2 gallons and used them overnight and it didn't resolve my issue with my drains. Sure hate it didn't because other reviews were glowing.

Dash Express
Okay, so I couldn't help myself. Here was a device that I knew ran Linux with not only a GPRS connection, but also a Wi-Fi connection. There had to be a way to get to a Linux prompt on the thing.
First, I let the Dash associate with my home Wi-Fi and then tried to SSH to it. It turns out, it actually does have SSH listening; however, I didn't know the password (if there even were one, I haven't had a chance to attempt SSH brute-force attacks yet), and it could use SSH keys.
The Dash Express does have a USB port on the side and even comes with a USB cable to connect it to your computer, but currently, there is no official use for this port other than charging the battery. When you connect it to Linux, dmesg gives some hope:
Sep 1 21:53:11 minimus kernel: [ 1447.814648] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Sep 1 21:53:11 minimus kernel: [ 1447.880419] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices Sep 1 21:53:11 minimus kernel: [ 1448.182503] usb0: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-0000:00:1d.1-1, CDC Ethernet Device, d6:a5:89:03:18:fe Sep 1 21:53:11 minimus kernel: [ 1448.182834] usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether Sep 1 21:53:12 minimus dhcdbd: message_handler: message handler not found under /com/redhat/dhcp/usb0 for sub-path usb0.dbus.get.reason
So, the device does show up as some sort of USB Ethernet device. Some research on the Internet led to a page that described how the OpenMoko phone had a similar connection, but unfortunately, if the Dash Express assigned itself a static IP, it didn't use the same one as the OpenMoko. I tried an nmap host discovery on all of the private IP space and even collected a few minutes of packets from the USB network to see whether there were any clues there, but as of yet, I haven't been able to get into the device.
Overall, the Dash Express is a very interesting GPS device. The Linux user in me wants to root for the underdog, especially if that underdog uses Linux as the OS on the device. The programmer in me is really drawn to the open API and the ability to write my own applications on the device and use the applications from a community of developers. The commuter in me likes a device aimed at delivering accurate traffic data. The gadget geek in me likes the concept of adding an Internet connection to a GPS device and is really interested in the potential that sort of improvement brings.
When it comes down to it, potential is the keyword for the Dash Express. Today, the Dash is a very useful GPS product with some advanced search features and Dash apps that no other competitor has—it just has some rough edges in some of the more fundamental GPS functions. It's the overall potential of the platform that is most compelling to me. I know that the rough parts are being worked on actively, and in the meantime, the community has added some great new free features to the device. As long as Dash can stay responsive to its users and especially to its developers (and maybe give us Linux geeks a peek under the hood), I think it's the GPS for geeks.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide
