Reseña de álbum
Even when compared with his many albums of lounge, dance band and mood music, Living Era's tribute compilation Early Black Magic may serve as the ideal introduction to pianist, arranger and bandleader Stanley Black (1913-2002). That's because it provides genuine, substantial background for his later successes by focusing upon his remarkable adventures in the British jazz and dance band business between 1931 and 1951. Coleman Hawkins devotees might already recognize Stanley Black as the pianist who participated in a Parlophone recording date with the saxophonist on November 18, 1934, shortly after Hawkins crossed the Atlantic to begin a five-year tour of England and Europe. Living Era opens the album with all four selections from that historic session, then trundles out a fascinating array of English recordings in chronological sequence as if to say: "here's the rest of the story on that young man behind the keyboard." Cut when Black was only 18-years-old, "I Ain't Got Nobody" features a gruff vocal by trumpeter Nat Gonella; the band was billed as Stanley Black & His Oriole Modernists. Played by Howard Jacobs and his orchestra with a sweet vocal by Bill Airey Smith, "Trouble in Paradise" is most interesting for Black's keyboard effects, which he achieved using a Neo-Bechstein piano, a futuristic, electronically-augmented setup similar to the Novachord. The next phase in this Stanley Black retrospective finds him working with Lew Stone's band as one of two pianists on "I Won't Dance." Although Al Hoffman had plenty of harmonized female vocal support from the Radio Three, he sang both the boy and girl parts, with lines like "Y'know what? You're lovely." "So What? I'm lovely." This Janus-headed performance was closely based upon the Bluebird recording of "I Won't Dance" made four months earlier by Loretta Lee and Sonny Schuyler with George Hall & His Taft Hotel Orchestra. During the second half of the '30s Black's most important work was with "King of Hot-Cha" Harry Roy. As a member of Roy's highly successful orchestra Black engaged in piano duets with Norman Yarlett and studied a repertoire that included ragtime, classic jazz and melodies by George Gershwin and Duke Ellington. While touring South America with Roy's band in 1938, Black absorbed the continent's many diverse rhythms and musical textures, quickly developing a penchant for these traditions that would eventually become his trademark as he came to specialize in the rhumba, the tango and the cha cha.

Patti LaBelle has a soprano style of vocal range. She has been greatly admired for her work and is a Grammy Hall of Fame, the Apollo Hall of Fame, the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Songwriter's Hall of Fame inductee. The World Music Awards presented her with the esteemed Legend Award. With all the hard work and struggle, she has been able to sell more than fifty million records all across the world. Her talent for singing was inborn, which was polished when she started singing in Church choirs at the age of ten. She was always a fan of jazz, rhythm and blues as well as gospel. She came up with her self-titled debut record in 1977, which was a success. The album featured danceable numbers like "Dan Swit Me" and "Joy To Have Your Love". It also consists of pop/R&B ballad called "You Are My Friend". This single was co-written by her husband along with her.
However, her following singles Tasty of 1978, It's Alright with Me of 1979 and Released of 1980 failed to be as successful. However, Patti LaBelle didn't give up and released The Spirit's In It in 1981. LaBelle found much of her success outside the music world by performing in plays and Broadways such as Your Arms Too Short to Box with God. Later she recorded her first top 20 R&B hit, "The Best Is Yet To Come", and for that she received a Grammy nomination in 1983. Patti LaBelle recorded singles including Stir It Up and Attitude in 1984. One of the songs from the record reached at number seventeen on the Hot 100 and in 1985, peaked at number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart.
Acting is another skill that LaBelle possesses and is much famous as an actress. She starred in her debut movie A Soldier's Story in 1984. Her great film appearance made Steven Spielberg to pick her in The Color Purple, but she rejected the offer due to some personal reasons. Later she appeared on movies such as Sylvester: Mighty Real in 2002, Preaching to the Choir in 2005, Cover in 2007, Mama, I Want to Sing! in 2011 and several others. Patti LaBelle has also appeared on small screen in series such as Out All Night, A Different World, The Dog Whisperer and Living It Up With Patti LaBelle among others. Pattli LaBelle embarked on a number of tours starting from 1985 in nonstop performances. She has headlined tours like Look To The Rainbow Tour, Winner In You Tour, Be Yourself Tour, Burnin' Tour, Still Patti Tour and Classic Moments Tour along with a number of others. She is not only famous in the United States but has also gained reasonable popularity all over the world. After enjoying hit tours and gaining a huge fan following, LaBelle is still on the road showcasing the same energy and zest to perform live for her beloved fans. Patti LaBelle tickets will take you to the never ending journey of this bright star that promises to shine for the audience giving them full fledge entertainment.

10's of millions of LNKD accounts are dormant that nobody visits anymore. They just try it and then don't look at it. It's free so no need to cancel. I probably still have an AOL e-mail account from 10 years ago but I don't use it. LNKD member numbers are not accurate at least not using member numbers
Pretty sure that the number of members is not important. What is important is that the insiders have now cashed out with huge chunks of cash and Barclays has downgraded, which gives cover for the price to go down. It does not mean the price WILL go down, only that there is now cover for it to go down. All of the so called analysts (sell-side) cannot look foolish or criminal ... of course appearances can be deceiving.

text: Close 2013-14 NHL Kids To Watch 0 0 More 0 0 0 View Gallery Next Previous Next Ray Arlin/Icon SMI Aleksander Barkov Shoulder surgery in April derailed his training regimen, but Florida sources insist the second overall pick will be 100 percent for the regular season. No one expects him to dominate men as he did in the Finnish league, but at 6'-3", 209 pounds, he has the size and strength to assert his presence down low and give the Cats a much-needed offensive option. 1|17 Bruce Bennett/Getty Images Seth Jones His roommate at the Olympic orientation camp was Ryan Suter. In Nashville, it's expected that he'll be teamed with Shea Weber. Those pairings speak volumes about the expectations Jones faces this season. Just remember to temper them early on: this right-handed blueliner could be asked to play the left side for the Preds, a switch that demands an adjustment period. 2|17 Nathan MacKinnon It's been 30 years since an 18-year-old last captured the Calder Trophy, but MacKinnon is ideally suited to succeed Tom Barrasso. The first-overall pick in the 2013 draft brings to the Avs world-class wheels, creative overdrive and a hunger for the net. He's expected to center the third line to start, but could force his way up the depth chart. 3|17 Cooper Neill/Getty Images Valeri Nichushkin There were scouts heading into the 2013 draft who believed tjhat Nichushskin was hands-down the most talented player on the board,. Watching him in camp action this summer, it's easy to see why. He has the size to dominate in the corners and down low, and the hands of an elite finisher. He'll be given every chance to play a top-six role for the Stars. 4|17 Brad Watson/NHLI via Getty Images Danny DeKeyser Last season's most prized college free agent stunned observers with his effortless transition to the NHL pace. Joining the Wings with 11 games left in the season, he assumed a shutdown role, playing a smart, calm style that stabilized a struggling blueline down the stretch. DeKeyser earned coach Mike Babcock's trust in the playoffs before breaking his thumb in Detroit's first round series vs. Anaheim. He only notched one assist, but brings a high skill level that should reveal itself as he plays top-four minutes this year. 5|17 Gerry Thomas/Getty Images Sven Baertschi A hip flexor injury ? and maybe a sense of entitlement -- derailed what should have been a dominant rookie season for the 13th overall pick in 2011. But Baertschi finished the year strong, tallying six points in his final seven games, and he's hoping that confidence from that hot streak, brushed with a touch of humility, will see him earn top-six minutes with the rebuilding Flames. However, Brian Burke, the team's fiery director of hockey ops, felt compelled to light a fire under the young winger by saying, "Flashes of brilliance are fine if you're working in the university, but they're not much good to people in an NHL building." 6|17 Joel Auerbach/Getty Images Nick Bjugstad Listed at 6'-6", 215 pounds -- but reportedly taller and heavier at his camp weigh-in -- Bjugstad is the brick wall of a center that every team craves. He's shown offensive touch in the past, scoring 25 goals in 40 college games last season, but could step in as a Joel Otto-type defensive presence this season. 7|17 Glenn James/NHLI via Getty Images Alex Chiasson Trade deadline house cleaning opened a spot in Dallas for Chiasson, who responded to his first NHL break with six goals in seven games. There's not a lot of flash to his game, but his willingness to drive the net, and the ability to finish once he gets there, sets him up to start the season with a top-six role 8|17 John Russell/NHLI via Getty Images Filip Forsberg Stolen from the Capitals at the trade deadline, Forsberg is exactly the sort of big-bodied, offensively minded forward the Predators never seem to draft but always desperately need. He's a bit raw at this point, but his terrific shot and ability to create space with speed would be a nice add for a team that tied for last in goal scoring last season. 9|17 Michael Tureski/Icon SMI Torey Krug Yeah, he had a great couple weeks in the playoffs, but he's not mistaking that streak for a key to a permanent stall at the TD Garden. Krug looked like a Don Sweeney-style defender who played bigger than his size and was as adept in his own end as he is keying the offense. The trick now is to prove that he can play this way consistently. 10|17 Jay La Prete/AP Ryan Murray Murray was penciled into the Jackets' lineup last season until a shoulder injury suffered during the lockout scuttled those plans. He comes into camp this year ready to prove that he's healthy and capable of playing significant minutes as a Karl Alzner-type shutdown blueliner who can quell an attack with physical play or smart positioning. 11|17 Mark Goldman/Icon SMI Tom Wilson The Caps may have depth on the right wing, but Wilson brings an element of physical menace that this team ? every team, actually ? desperately needs. The 6'-4", 210-pound winger held his own in three playoff games last spring, showing that he could handle himself against grown men, and he could use his size to add a fresh element to Washington's power play this season. 12|17 Andy Mead/YCJ/Icon SMI Elias Lindholm No pressure or anything, but after spending two seasons in Sweden's elite league, Carolina GM Jim Rutherford says Lindholm is expected to make an immediate contribution to the 'Canes. The team loves his versatility ? he's played all three forward positions ? and his hockey sense, but his speed will make him valuable to a team that could use a little giddy up. 13|17 Kirk Irwin/Getty Images Boone Jenner It always seemed like an indefatigable work ethic would be the element that earned Jenner his shot in the NHL, but it was the surprisingly deft touch he displayed in camp that finds him starting the season on the Jackets' top line alongside Brandon Dubinsky and Marian Gaborik. His style is sure to make him a fan favorite in Columbus and public enemy No. 1 everywhere else. 14|17 Claus Andersen/Getty Images Morgan Rielly The Leafs seemed committed to ensuring a slow developmental curve for Rielly after ruining several top defensive prospects by rushing them into service, but the fifth overall pick from 2012 wouldn't be denied a spot. His ice time may be limited to a depth role, but his ability to read the play and make smart decisions with the puck could allow him to chip in on the power play. 15|17 Jen Fuller/Getty Images Rasmus Ristolainen After watching him excel against men in Finland's top league, scouts agreed that Ristolainen was the most NHL-ready player in this year's draft. The big defenseman lived up to the hype, impressing with his mature play in Buffalo's camp. There were nights when he was the best D-man in blue and gold, according to assistant coach Teppo Numminen. 16|17 Jana Chytilova/Freestyle Photography/Getty Images Jarred Tinordi The Habs still ice the cast of <italics>Smurfs 2</italics> up front, but the presence of Tinordi ensures that they'll have a big, physical presence on the back end. The son of former NHLer Mark Tinordi plays exactly as you'd expect, making smart, simple plays and keeping the opposition honest. He'll be a boon to Montreal's struggling penalty kill, and might surprise with what he can bring offensively. 17|17 Next up Swim Daily Heidi Klum (2001) :: Getty Images 42 Why Heidi Klum owns Halloween September 30, 2013 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Recommended Galleries NHL Loui Eriksson, LW — 2016 stats: 82 GP, 30 G, 33 A, 63 PTS, +13 28 Top NHL Free Agents of 2016 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More NHL Conor Sheary, an undrafted 5' 8", 175-pound winger out of New Hampshire put his elite hockey sense, quick feet and world-class shot to good use in Game 2 of the 2016 Stanley Cup Final when he became just the fifth rookie in history to score an overtime winner. Bryan Rust, a spare part during his first two NHL seasons, found unexpected postseason success after he was slotted alongside Evgeni Malkin on Pittsburgh's explosive second line. The 24-year-old winger became the team's closeout specialist, scoring twice to help the Pens clinch their first-round series against the Rangers, then tallying both Game 7 goals that eliminated the Lightning in the Eastern Conference Final. 16 Unlikely NHL Playoff Heroes 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More NHL Nick Bonino celebrates with teammates after scoring the winning goal against San Jose with 2:33 remaining in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final. 23 Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More

The articular surface plays an essential role in load transfer across the joint, and conditions that produce increased load transfer or altered patterns of load distribution accelerate the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Current knowledge segregates the risk factors into two fundamental mechanisms related to the adverse effects of "abnormal" loading on normal cartilage or "normal" loading on abnormal cartilage. Although chondrocytes can modulate their functional state in response to loading, their capacity to repair and modify the surrounding extracellular matrix is limited in comparison to skeletal cells in bone. This differential adaptive capacity underlies the more rapid appearance of detectable skeletal changes, especially after acute injuries that alter joint mechanics. The imbalance in the adaptation of the cartilage and bone disrupts the physiological relationship between these tissues and further contributes to OA pathology. This review focuses on the specific articular cartilage and skeletal features of OA and the putative mechanisms involved in their pathogenesis.

1944 August - This photo was taken in front of Swanson's Lodge. I believe the lady in the print dress is Sybil Swanson. The man with the cap carrying the suitcase is Curly Nelson, a Swede who worked for the Swanson's. James Russell Fink, MD is in the shadows of the entry. I am not able to identify the others in the photo.
1944 - Mr. and Mrs. Eigle (Nonalie) Madsen (in dress clothes) talking to Sybil Swanson before boarding Wilderness Express to begin travel back to Chicago. Most likely, they took the Wilderness Express to Duluth, and then the train from there.
Mr. and Mrs. Eigle (Nonalie) Madsen boarding the Wilderness Express in Swanson Lodge parking lot to begin their trip home to Chicago.
1944 - Swanson's Lodge sign at the corner of what is now Hungry Jack Road and Bunn Trail. Alice Fink, of Chicago, is holding her two year-old son, Richard.
1944 August - J. R. Fink, MD on right with family friend on left. This string of Lake Trout was probably taken from Moss or Arrow Lakes. Dave Clark guided Dad on this trip and those were Dave's favorite lakes. This photo was taken on the dock of Swanson's Lodge.
About 1944 - Float plane arriving at Swanson's Lodge.
About 1944 - Diving board at Swanson's Lodge.
1944 August - Swanson's Lodge This is the guest cabin which my dad, my mother, and I occupied at Swanson's Lodge during our first visit to Hungry Jack Lake in 1944.
1944 August - Mr. and Mrs. Harry Caley. The Caleys were from Chicago, Illinois, where Harry Caley owned a Chevrolet dealership. They had a cabin on Lot 8 in the Hungry Jack Lake Summer Home Group. This cabin was eventually purchased by Neal and Ginny Selvig, and is now owned by their nephew, Robert Wilcox and his wife, Mary.
1940s - Mr. and Mrs. Harry Caley had a beautiful cabin built by Bob Zimmerman on Lot 8 in the Hungry Jack Summer Home Group. It was later owned by Neil and Ginny Selvig. Sometime during the Selvig's ownership a tree adjacent to the cabin was struck by lightening. The wiring from a light fixture mounted on the tree carried the current into the cabin and the entire cabin was immediately on fire. The Selvigs escaped with only their nightclothes that they were wearing. The cabin was subsequently rebuilt by Bob Zimmerman. It is currently owned by the Selvig's nephew and his family.
1944 August - This is a group of unidentified hikers from Swanson's Lodge at the top of Caribou Rock in 1944. It is my understanding that the picnic tables were placed by Gateway Lodge. They were pretty well deteriorated by the 1950s, and were gone completely by the 1960s. There used to be very good Blueberry picking at the top of Caribou Rock, but that is no longer the case.
1945 February - Gateway Lodge on the north side of Hungry Jack Lake. This was the original log main lodge. It was reputed to be the largest log building in Minnesota. Furnishings were all hand made from diamond willow and other local materials. The resort was founded by Jesse Gapen and family in, I believe, about 1924. This building was built in 1932 and burned in the winter of 1972. This resort was eventually purchased in 1958 by the Patrick McDonald Family and later, in 1972, by Jerry Parson. The resort is currently operated by Jerry's son, Forrest Parson.
Paul Ilg - February 1945 or 1946
Paul was the husband of Dorothy Maland who was the daughter of Ruth and Ozzie Maland. The Malands owned the cabin on the south shore of the west end of Hungry Jack Lake. After the deaths of the Malands, the Ilgs owned the cabin. For the past several years it has been owned by their son, Bob Ilg. Paul was fresh out of the Army. The building in the background is the old Gateway Lodge main building. The largest log building in Minnesota at the time, it was destroyed by fire in December 1972.
1945 February - Swanson's Lodge This is the main lodge building, and it looks much the same today as it did then. The only thing absent today is the tepee-like flagpole over the gabled entry. The dining room is at the far left, the office is in the area of the awninged window, and the main sitting area was in the entire right half of the building. There is a large fireplace at the end of the building on the far right.
1945 May - This is another photo which shows the picnic tables which used to be at the top of Caribou Rock. This is a group of Dad's friends who had hiked up there. Looks like a pretty lazy day for these guys. That is West Bearskin Lake in the background, of course.
1945 May - Swanson's Lodge This activity is obviously taking place at the dock. All the boats at that time were wood, and quite heavy. Most of the resorts had boatlines for their guests. One could take one of these boats to a portage where it was left, and then the guests or their guide would carry their motor and gear to the other side of the portage where another boat would be waiting on shore for their use. One could take a boatline all the way to Rose Lake, for example, in this manner. Of course, that was before parts of the route became motorless by law.
The building in the backgound was a lighthouse and a shop with a canoe shed on the water side. The lighthouse contained an old Model A Ford engine, or something similar, which was hooked up to a generator that produced 12-volt DC current for the lodge. The system made use of a large number of wet cell storage batteries. The engines were not necessarily well-muffled and they were often heard putt-putting from out on the lake.
Mr. Jerner - March 1948
I don't know Mr. Jerner's first name. He was a Swede who, I believe, was from Chicago. It is said that he was involved in the construction of Swanson's Lodge. He did construct the guest cabin for the Ebert Family in the Federal Summer Home Group, and he did some additions to the Maland Family cabin on Hungry Jack Lake. This photo is taken at Mt Lemon, near Tucson. At the time, Mr. Jergens was constructing a home for the Malands in the Tucson area.
1950 - The date is an estimate. This is the intersection between the Gunflint Trail, headed west on the far left, and the Hungry Jack road heading west in the center. The smaller of the two mailboxes on the right belonged to Swanson's Lodge, while the larger belonged to Gateway Lodge. The "gated" entry down the road a hundred yards had a carved-in-a-log sign for Gateway on one side and one for Swanson's on the other. This road went on past the north side of Road Lake and then up a hill that was taken down for gravel when the Gunflint Trail was widened and paved. This entry to the Hungry Jack Road was changed to its present location a long time ago, perhaps in the 1960s. If anyone knows the precise date, please comment below.
1951 December - Cutting Ice - The location of this photograph is just to the west of the Gateway Lodge point, as shown on the map. Ice was being cut for the lodge. As soon as the lake froze hard enough to walk on, the planned ice field was shoveled whenever there was fresh snow. This allowed the ice to freeze thick and clear. Two T-handled saws can be seen in the photo. These were used to cut the blocks of ice. The cakes of ice were then pushed through the water with the long-handled pike, seen lying on the ice, to the point where the cakes were pulled out of the water. I am not able to identify the men, but that is me at the far left at age 9.
1951 December - Cutting Ice - Again, I cannot identify these men. They are setting up a gasoline engine powered ice saw. The truck is a Dodge 5-Window Pickup Truck with a long box of a late 1940s or very early 1950s vintage.
1951 December - Cutting Ice - Unidentified man pulling ice with long-handled tongs. Other tools lying on ice are a pike, regular tongs, a shovel , and a pronged spud for breaking blocks of ice apart.
1951 December - Cutting Ice - The men are unidentified. Photo shows the ice field with hand cutting taking place and blocks of ice being moved.
1951 December - Cutting Ice - Men are unidentified. Multiple blocks of ice sitting on ice field. Blow torch sitting on ice at right. Five-Windowed Dodge Pickup Truck and another, unidentified vehicle in background.
About 1952 - Bent Family Cabin Under Construction
In about 1948 a road was extended from near the end of what is now known as Hungry Jack Road. The extension passed across the portage from Hungry Jack Lake to West Bearskin Lake (much to the dismay of my father, James Russell Fink) and on beyond a ways. It is now known as Menogyn Trail. Five additional cabins to the Hungry Jack Summer Home Group were built near the end of this road. One of them was a log cabin built by the Henry Bent Family of Missouri. Henry, with the aid of his two sons, Bob and Henry Jr., built this cabin themselves over a period of several years using logs from a windfall along the Hungry Jack Road just north of the then Gateway, now Hungry Jack Lodge. As kids, my brother, sister, and I would periodically walk down with our father to check on its progress. The Bent Family still occupies this cabin as of this writing in 2012.
About 1952 - The Bent Family Permanent Camp
While the Bent Family was constructing their log cabin, they spent summers in their permanent tent camp a few yards from the construction site. The tent was on a platform and large in size. All cooking was done with wood and baking was accomplished in the keg-sized oven that can be seen here. The children are, in order of age, Richie (me), Carol, and Billy Fink. The woman to the right is Doris Ahlsted, a close friend of our family.
1952 - This photo was taken at the top of what is, today, called Honeymoon Rock at the east end of Hungry Jack Lake. Back then we called it Red Bluff. The rock is certainly red, but I know of no one who spent, or would want to spend, their honeymoon up there. I don't know why the name was changed. This was before the railings were installed to protect us from the effects of gravity. By the way, that is my three year-old brother, Billy, there. It was also before the trail to the top was changed from the south side to the north side of the bluff. That south side trail was steep, and there were no steps as there are now on the north side trail. I don't know, I think maybe we were tougher back then.
1957 - Alice Fink Making Ice Cream at the Fink Cabin
We had a long tradition of making peach ice cream at the Fink cabin. Mom (Alice Fink) would buy peaches in Grand Marais. We kids would take the boat over to Swanson's Lodge to get a large block of ice out of the Lodge ice house. We would then bring the ice back to the cabin, chip it up, and put it and salt in the ice cream maker to chill the ice cream mix that Mom had made. We would all then take turns cranking until the mix had thickened. Here, Mom is removing the paddle from the finished product. Ted Mayer is standing on the porch, along with Carol Fink (in blue) and Cheryl Clauson. Rich Fink is in the plaid shirt, Billy Fink is seen behind the paddle and Uncle Harry Sanders is standing at the right.
About 1957 - Hungry Jack Lake summer residents - (left to right) - Mr. Gustafson (Lot 16, Federal summer home group), Leif Irgens (Lot 18), Gerda O'Conner (Lot 17), Ruth Maland (Southwest Hungry Jack), Carol Fink (Lot 13), James Russell Fink (Lot 13), Billy Fink (child - Lot 13), Anna Irgens (Lot 18), Mr. Eibert (Lots 14 & 15), Richie Fink (Lot 13), Mrs. Eibert (Lots 14 & 15), Mrs. Gustafson (Lot 16), Eleanor Salisbury (Lots 19 &20), Fr. Duncan (Lot 11), Alice Fink (Lot 13). Photograph taken in dining room of Swanson's Lodge.
1958 December - Walter Bunn. This photo was taken in "Snug Haven" which was the name of the cabin Walt built for his mother and him to live in. That is Mother Bunn in the background at the kitchen sink. The Fink Family spend several Christmases at the Hungry Jack Lake Cabin and socialization with the Bunns during those trips was an almost-everyday occurrence.
About 1960
This is a photo of Swanson's Lodge as it appeared in about 1960. This was used on the Lodge's Christmas Card.
About 1960
This photo was taken in "Snug Haven," the year-around home of Walter Bunn and his mother, Laura "Mother" Bunn. The year was about 1960 and this photo was in their Christmas Card. The dog is Walter's dog, "Mike," which was a collie mix. Mike had the ability to climb ladders and would often appear on the roof when Walt was up there shoveling snow or repairing leaks. The trouble was that Mike could not get back down, so someone always had to carry him back down the ladder. This was not an easy task due to Mike's size. After Mike died, Walt acquired an Irish Setter named "Kelly." Kelly, fortunately, never learned how to climb ladders.
1961 December - This diminutive lady is Mother Bunn. Few people knew her real name, Laura, but everyone knew her as Mother Bunn. She ran the kitchen and dining room of Swanson's Lodge, which was operated by her son, Walter "Walt" Bunn. Her food was good - good enough to be "Recommended by Duncan Hines," which was a very important credential to have in those days. This photo was taken in the Fink cabin in late December.
1961 - At one time Hungry Jack Lake had some pretty good Lake Trout fishing. Long after everyone else had given them up as gone, Stu Fenton would go out and pull one in. This is a particularly large Lake Trout that he pulled out in 1961. Stu Fenton was part of the Salisbury clan on Lots 20 and 21 in the Summer Home Group.
1961 - Hungry Jack summer residents picnicking at Saganaga Lake. First row, l. to r. - Eleanor Salisbury, Willis Salisbury, Hazel Elliot, Ruth Maland, Anna Irgens, Leif Irgens. Back row, l. to r. - Russell Fink, Ace Elliot, Gerda O'Connor, Oswald (Ozzie) Maland. The Salisburys had the cabins on Lots 20 and 21, the Irgens the cabin on Lot 18, Dr. Fink the cabin on Lot 13, Mrs. O'Connor the cabin on Lot 17, all in the Hungry Jack Summer Home Group. The Malands had the cabins at the southwest part of Hungry Jack Lake (now Ilgs' place), and the Elliots were long-time friends and guests of the Malands.
1964 June - Walter Bunn. Walt owned and operated Swanson's Lodge from about 1950 on. He had purchased it from the original owners, Marvin and Sybil Swanson. I believe that Walt's brother, Renn, may have had a financial interest in it as well. Walt and Dad were the best of friends. Walt lived a good quality of life as a beloved citizen of the Gunflint Trail into his 90s. You can still have a breakfast of Walter's Pancakes, named in his honor, at the Trail Center today. Photo taken of Walt and his Irish Setter, Kelly, on June 13, 1964.
About 1970 - Willis and Eleanor Salisbury in front of their cabin on the point on Lots 20 & 21. Willis was a member of the Salisbury Mattress Family of Minneapolis, Minnesota, the building of which is now part of St Anthony Main (2012). They did a lot of international traveling in their later years and, as a boy, I loved visiting them and hearing their stories about riding elephants and being in jungles.

This is the second song of yours that's had me loving the melody. It's fantastic. The kick beats in the beginning though, every other one seems to fade out of the audio. I'm wondering if this was intentional or not. Either way, I love the synths you use. They're really strong.
I know this track can be cleaned up a bit but it's good enough to listen to. If someone is interested in using it I would change whatever they wanted.

SDCC: Marvel: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Panel
Comic Books
Archie Comics has provided ROBOT 6 with a first look at Sonic Super Special Magazine #13, part of the publisher's long-running Sonic the Hedgehog line that both reprints older stories from the series' mythology with interviews and behind-the-scenes features. The issue, on sale Jan. 7, also features a foil cover with the cast of the Sonic BOOM! cartoon series.
I first became aware of colorist Steve Downer due to his work on MonkeyBrain Comics' Edison Rex. But as I quickly learned, he serves as colorist on a variety of projects, as well as artist on Dracula the Unconquered. Given the variety of Downer's projects, I thought it would be insightful to discuss his craft with him.
Tim O'Shea: How long have you been a colorist?
Steve Downer: I've been working full-time as a colorist since 2009, though I started coloring as a side job much earlier, in 2007, while I worked as a T-shirt graphic designer.
Archie Comics is old and new at the same time, still churning out comics featuring the Riverdale gang we all grew up with but mixing it up in interesting ways — with graphic novel compilations, the addition of the gay character Kevin Keller, and the dual-storyline Life With Archie magazine that ages the cast up into their 20s.
The end of the year seemed like a good opportunity to check in with Co-CEO Jon Goldwater about 2012 and the company's initiatives for 2013. While Archie kept a pretty high profile in 2012, with a new Kevin Keller comic, the Archie Meets KISS miniseries, and the return of the Red Circle superheroes (in print as well as digital form), there was also quite a bit going on behind the scenes, both positive — Goldwater says they really figured out how to market their products in the current climate — and negative — a legal feud between Goldwater and Co-CEO Nancy Silberkleit that bubbled out into the public eye last year but was settled in June.
Goldwater covers a lot of bases in the interview; one interesting nugget is that the monthly comics most people would think are the flagship Archie product are not a significant source of revenue for the company, although they are important both as a marketing tool and as the place where new stories run first. It's also interesting to see how Goldwater regards the company's deal with MAC Cosmetics as the first step toward global marketing of Archie products.
Robot 6: What's new at Archie?
Jon Goldwatwer: We got a lot of great stuff coming up in 2013. 2012 was fantastic. I feel like every year we take these tremendous steps forward, from putting out Life With Archie and figuring out how to make that work — we have gained traction on that — to things like Archie Meets KISS, things like Kevin Keller, groundbreaking day-and-date digital. We look at 2013 being one of these big groundbreaking years
The first thing we have coming out is a partnership with MAC Cosmetics called Archie's Girls. It launches February 2013, and it's going to be a global launch. It's going to be in every MAC store, not just in freestanding stores but in department stores as well. Wherever you want to go, you are going to have Archie right there. It's truly our most important licensing deal in the last 30 years.
Here's an odd little story that has been brewing over the past couple of days: Ken Penders, who wrote the Sonic the Hedgehog series for Archie Comics for over a decade, is claiming he owns the rights to the stories he wrote and the side characters he created. Not surprisingly, Archie Comics is disputing the claim.
A few days ago, Penders posted this claim on his website:
As of April 21, 2010, the U.S. Copyright Office finally began certifying my copyright claims (which I initially filed beginning back in January 2009) on every single story I ever wrote, penciled or both for Archie Comics. As a result, I am now officially recognized by the U.S. Government as the owner of every single SONIC and KNUCKLES story I ever created (well, almost every one right now, but it will be "all" shortly, as soon as the Copyright Office finishes with the last few claims. But I digress…).
What does this mean?
That means anyone seeking to use my characters, concepts and stories that were published in the pages of SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, various SONIC 48-page specials, various issues of SONIC SUPER SPECIALS, the PRINCESS SALLY mini-series, the SONIC'S FRIENDLY NEMESIS KNUCKLES mini-series, KNUCKLES THE DARK LEGION and the KNUCKLES THE ECHIDNA series, must first contact me for permission and to make arrangements for the use of this material.

This work is a classic. It is undated, but probably dates from the end of the 19th century. Besides being beautiful poetry, it is also a beautiful book. It is covered in black pebble grained leather, slightly worn at the spine, and it has gold leaf on all three sides of the pages. I believe this is real gold too! The binding is tight and the pages are clean. It does have two previous owner's names on the blank fly page. No other markings or odors. The book has some nice engravings and nice green and gold fly papers. This is a real gem for your library!

Bathroom Window Blinds & Shades
- Moisture resistant window treatments
- Provide an adequate level of privacy
- Consider room darkening options
- Shutters are a natural fit
- Top picks are faux wood blinds, cellular shades & roller shades
While privacy is a major concern in the bathroom, blinds and shades that are able to withstand high levels of humidity are the best choice. Treatments made out of vinyl, PVC, faux wood, or thick fabric will be durable enough to stand up to the unique environment. These window treatments won't bend, warp, crack, or harvest mildew and are sure to withstand the test of time. Many bathroom shades can be configured with a top down/bottom up lift for the ultimate in flexible privacy. The slats on faux wood bathroom blinds and shutters can be tilted upwards to admit some light while still maintaining privacy.

WASHINGTON — The top Republican in the House says a recent proposal by GOP members of a special deficit committee is a "fair offer" despite criticism from conservatives who say it breaks the party's pledge on taxes.
"It's important for us in my opinion to reform the tax code," said Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, adding that a tax overhaul would "make America more competitive and produce economic growth."
And a top GOP member of the panel got some words of support from House Republicans Tuesday morning after briefing rank-and-file Republicans on last week's GOP proposal, which called for a net tax revenue increase of almost $300 billion in exchange for significantly lowered tax rates.
Rep. Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, co-chairman of the deficit panel said the badly divided group is still working in hopes of reaching an agreement.
"They haven't thrown me out, so I guess I got a good reception," Hensarling said of how House Republicans reacted to his status report on supercommittee talks. "I gave them an update, I told them we haven't lost hope yet but ... this week is crucial."
The panel faces an official target of next Wednesday to approve a plan, but sometime this week is a more realistic deadline, given the realities of drafting proposals into legal language and getting them "scored" by congressional analysts to measure their impact on the deficit.
With time growing short, Boehner and top Senate Democrat Harry Reid of Nevada met Tuesday morning on the panel's work. It's likely to require a push from such top leaders to help break an impasse over taxes and cuts to popular benefit programs.
Hensarling, a stout conservative, got support from some of his colleagues inside a closed-door GOP caucus Tuesday morning. He pointed out that a far larger tax increase looms at the end of next year with the expiration of the Bush-era cuts in tax rates, investments, and breaks for married couples and families with children.
"I thought it was a very serious effort in trying to break a logjam and get a compromise," said House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis. "Held up against the big tax increase coming, I'll take that any day.
But last week's GOP plan has gotten a cold shoulder from GOP presidential hopefuls like former Speaker Newt Gingrich and Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
Campaigning in Iowa, Gingrich said he would "do everything in my power to defeat" any committee deficit-reduction plan that includes higher taxes.
Jason Miner, a spokesman for Perry, said the Texas governor "wants to look at details but if those details include a tax increase he's not going to be for it. He does not favor higher taxes."
Some conservative Republicans are restive about last week's GOP proposal for higher tax revenues, which would be skimmed off the top in a future overhaul of the tax code that trades the elimination of many tax breaks for significantly lower income tax rates.
"I would still be concerned about any proposal that basically would violate a pledge on raising taxes," said Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J.
The committee has been at work for two months, hoping to succeed at a task that has defied the best efforts of high-ranking political leaders past and present.
The principal stumbling blocks revolve around taxes, on the one hand, and the large federal benefit programs of Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, on the other.
Democrats are unwilling to agree to cuts in benefit programs unless Republicans will accept higher taxes, particularly on the highest-income individuals and families.
"I'm willing to make significant inroads into, for example, some of the mandatory programs, which include Medicare and Medicaid, but that comes as part of a big deal where everyone shares in the sacrifice," said Rep. Xavier Becerra, D-Calif., a liberal member of the panel.

Forza 3 second disc install takes four minutes – video
Installing Forza 3's second disc, essential if you're going to get the game's full experience, takes around four minutes: watch the video after the break as proof.
The extra DVD contains 1.9Gb of data, such as car packs, tracks and environments.
If you don't have enough space on your 360's drive, the game asks you which car packs you want to install. You won't see that in this movie as we'd cleared out a bunch of stuff beforehand.
Look and see. This was grabbed from the retail version, which releases on October 23.

OSGi Installer
The OSGi installer is a central service for handling installs, updates and uninstall of "artifacts". By default, the installer supports bundles and has an extension for handling configurations for the OSGi configuration admin.
The OSGi installer itself is "just" the central service managing the tasks and states of the artifacts. The artifacts can be provided through various providers, e.g. through a file system provider reading artifacts from configured directories or the jcr provider reading artifacts from a JCR repository.
A provider is just scanning for artifacts and their removal. It informs the OSGi installer about new artifacts and removed artifacts. The provider itself has usually no knowledge about the contents of an artifact. It does not know about bundles, configurations etc.
As the OSGi installer itself is not performing the actual install, update or removal of an artifact, its possible to install transformers and installer factories. A transformer inspects the artifacts and tries to detect its type. By default, detecting of bundles and configurations is supported. The final service is an installer factory creating the actual task, like install this bundle, update that bundle etc.
It's possible to add own providers, transformers and installer factories to support custom scenarios.
The installer API is defined by the
org.apache.sling.installer.api package
of the org.apache.sling.installer.core module. The main
interface is the
OsgiInstaller with which installable resources can be registered.
The [installer integration tests][1] module can be useful to understand the details of how the installer works.
Artifact Handling¶
Once an artifact is detected by a transformer, it gets a unique id. By default a bundle gets the symbolic name as the unique identifier and a configuration the PID. In addition to this id, an artifact gets a priority information from the provider. The priority is used if an artifact with the same id is provided several times from different locations. For example if a file system provider is scanning two directories and an artifact with the same id (like a configuration) is added to both directories, one should have precedence over the other. This is handled by the priority.
Artifacts with the same unique id are grouped and then sorted by priority and maybe other artifact dependent metadata like the bundle version. Only the first artifact in this sorted group is tried to be applied!
Bundle Handling¶
In general, the OSGi installer always tries to install the highest version of a bundle if several bundles with the same symbolic name are provided. In this case higher version wins over priority. If an installed bundle is removed by a provider, for example deleted in the repository, the OSGi installer uninstall the bundle. If a bundle is removed from a provider which is currently not installed, this has no effect at all. If an installed bundle is removed and another version of this bundle is provided (a lower version), than this one is installed instead. This is basically a downgrade of the bundle. If a bundle is installed and a higher version is provided, an upgrade is performed. If an installed bundle is managed via any other OSGi tooling, like uninstalling it through the web console, the OSGi installer does no action at all!
If a failure occurs during bundle installation or update, the OSGi installer will retry this as soon as another bundle has been installed. The common use case is an application installation with several bundles where one bundle depends on another. As they are installed in arbitrary order, this mechanism ensures that in the end all bundles are properly wired and installed.
When all artifacts have been processed (either install, update or delete), a package refresh is automatically called.
Versions and Snapshots¶
The OSGi installer asumes that a symbolic name and version (not a snapshot version) uniquely identifies a bundle. Obviously this is a common development requirement that a released version of an artifact never changes over time. Therefore, once a bundle with a specific version is installed, it will not be reinstalled if the corresponding artifact changes. For example, if bundle A with version 1.0 is put into the JCR repository, it gets installed. If now this jar in the repository is overwritten either with the same contents or with a different one, and this new artifact has again A as the symbolic name and version set to 1.0, nothing will happen as this exact bundle is already installed.
During development, SNAPSHOT versions should be used, like 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT (using the Maven convention). If a bundle with a snapshot version is changed, it gets updated by the OSGI installer.
Start Level Handling¶
The OSGi installer supports handling of start levels for bundles. If the provided bundle artifacts contain a start level information the bundle is installed with that start level, otherwise the default start level is used. Therefore, for initial provisioning to make use of start levels, the OSGi installer and the corresponding provider (see below) should run at a very low start level, probably at 1. This ensure that the bundles with a start level are started with respect to the start level.
When an update of bundles is performed through the installer, by default the installer stays in the current start level and updates the bundles. However, if bundles at low start levels are affected, this might result in a lot of churn going on. Therefore, the OSGi installer can be configured to use a more intelligent start level handling:
- If the framework property "sling.installer.switchstartlevel" is set to "true" and
- there is no asynchronous install task in the list of tasks to perform, then
- the start level is set to (the lowest level of the bundles to be updated - 1) - if the start level is lower than the level of the installer itself, the start level of the installer is used.
- the bundles are updated/installed
- the start level is increased to the previous level
An installer factory provides support for a specific artifact type, like a configuration or a deployment package etc.
A provider provides artifacts, e.g. by scanning a directory or a database etc.

Hamptons Millionaires Apparently Eager to Adopt Highways
They're like billboards, but smaller.
Once reserved for Boy Scout Troops and Rotary Clubs, the Adopt-a-Highway program has become the latest obsession of fabulously wealthy Hamptonites eager to advertise on tiny billboards on the east end of Long Island, according to the New York Post. The tabloid calls the signs "status symbols" and details the cost one real estate agent pays for an "inferior spot" in a working-class part of Suffolk County: $2,500 up front and $650 a month. Or, as the guy who has an 11,000-square-foot home in Bridgehampton calls it, pocket change.

King Capisce - The Future Cannot Be Born Yet....
King Capisce return to the fold with a new album, renewed ambition and arguably their most mature work to date. 'The Future Cannot Be Born Yet, It Is Waiting For The Past To Die' is an eclectic mix of influences that broadly take in the Jazz and Post/Alt rock spheres, but aims to move beyond that into their own dynamic, instrumental and thought provoking sound, from the cinematic to wall of sound.
The new record, 'The Future Is Not Born Yet, It Is Waiting For The Past To Die'.
Press for the album.

Breast Cancer Health Center
Breast Implant After Mastectomy
To place an implant after mastectomy, the surgeon will use the same incision that was used to remove the breast tissue. The implant may be placed directly under the skin, but it is usually put under the chest muscle.
Often, before an implant is placed, a doctor will first place a balloon (or tissue expander) beneath the chest muscle. Saline is added to the expander every 1 to 2 weeks to help stretch the skin and muscle. This may take several months. When the muscle and skin are stretched enough, the expander is taken out and an implant is put in.

About the Book
"Shriver is a master of the misanthrope. . . . [A] viciously smart writer." —Time
Disgruntled New York corporate lawyer Edgar Kellogg is more than ready to leave his lucrative career for the excitement and uncertainty of journalism. When he's offered the post of foreign correspondent in a Portuguese backwater that has sprouted a homegrown terrorist movement, Edgar recognizes Barrington Saddler, the disappeared reporter Edgar's been sent to replace, as exactly the outsize character he longs to emulate.
Yet all is not as it appears. Os Soldados Ousados de Barba—"The Daring Soldiers of Barba"—have been blowing up the rest of the world for years in order to win independence for a province so dismal and backward that you couldn't give the rat hole away. So why, with Barrington vanished, do terrorist incidents claimed by the "SOB" suddenly dry up?
The New Republic addresses weighty issues such as terrorism withthe deft, tongue-in-cheek touch that is vintage Shriver. It also presses the more intimate question: What makes particular people so magnetic, while the rest of us inspire a shrug? What's their secret? And in the end, who has the better life—the admired, or the admirer?
Educator and Librarian Resources
Critical Praise
"[Shriver's] whip-smart observations—about relationships, the role of the media, the cult of personality are funny and on the mark." — People
"In her latest novel, Lionel Shriver pays homage to Joseph Conrad—examining terrorism, media bloodlust, and the cult of personality through an unexpected lens of satire." — Marie Claire, Four New Page-Turners to Keep Bedside
"A very funny book, but the laughs are embedded in a deeply disturbing subject." — NPR, "Weekend Edition"
"Shriver is cursed with knowing the human animal all too well. The New Republic is satire of a Shriver kind, that is to say biting." — Miami Herald
"Lionel Shriver, the author of the harrowing and patient We Need to Talk About Kevin, delivers something altogether different: a callous and romping political and journalistic satire." — The Daily Beast-- This Week's Hot Reads
"Shriver is one of the sharpest talents around." — USA Today
"Witty, caustic and worldly, [Shriver] is a raconteur who could show even Barrington Saddler a thing or two about entertaining a crowd." — Wall Street Journal
"Shriver has been a National Book Award finalist with good reason: Her page-turners examine serious issues." — Reader's Digest Recommends
"A wondrously fanciful plot, vividly drawn characters, clever and cynical dialogue, and a comically brilliant and verisimilar imagined land. . . . The New Republic is simply terrific." — Booklist (starred review)
"The dialogue zings and the writing is jazzy. . . . [Shriver] can toss off a sharp sketch of a passing character in a phrase, and she's got a gimlet eye for what's phony, or affected, or even touchingly vain in human behavior." — Entertainment Weekly
"Shriver is an incisive social satirist with a clear grip on the ironies of our contemporary age . . . [Her] take on journalism and international politics is wry, insightful and just over the top enough to be fun." — Los Angeles Times
"[Shriver] is uncannily perceptive[with a] vigorous capacity for compassion . . . [A] surprisingly tender novel disguised as a clever satire delivered in polished prose." — Philadelphia Inquirer
"Part Scoop, part Our Man in Havana and part Len Deighton thriller, Shriver's novel is not just about terrorism but also about journalism and the nature of charisma. . . . Shriver's Barba is a wonderful creation." — Financial Times

The Japanese Communist Party made a strong showing in the House of Councillors election Sunday, making it certain to secure the highest number of seats since the upper house election in 1998.
In the Tokyo constituency, a JCP candidate was assured of victory for the first time in 12 years, while two JCP candidates who ran in the Osaka and Kyoto blocs in western Japan were also set to win seats in the upper chamber for the first time since 1998.
"Citizens are concerned that the Liberal Democratic Party will go out of control. It is a crucial step forward for us to take the offensive" against the ruling LDP, Kazuo Shii, who heads the JCP, said at a press conference Sunday night.
Yoshiko Kira, who ran for the JCP in the Tokyo bloc, said her victory "reflects the public anger against the LDP government."
The JCP succeeded in gaining wider support from swing voters by adopting a confrontational approach toward the ruling LDP, which is pushing contentious policies such as resuming operation of idled nuclear power plants following the 2011 Fukushima crisis as well as revising the Constitution.
Meanwhile, the People's Life Party and the Green Wind party were not expected to win any seats in the chamber. The Social Democratic Party is projected to secure a seat under the proportional representation system.

I fell asleep driving and hit a retaining wall causing injury to my passenger (girlfriend). She had a cut under her chin and required stitches. My BAC was 0.06 by blood test. I had no prior criminal record. I was convicted on 23153a and acquitted on 23153b by jury trial. I believe I was mislead by my lawyer through out the whole process. He kept telling me the suspension would be for 4 months and that I can get restrictive license. He never informed me that the suspension for DUI w/ injury is 1 year without restrictive license. If I had known about the severity of the suspension, I would have rather try for a 23152 plead (which my lawyer thought may have been possible). Do I have any chance of appealing my case based on misleading info from my lawyer?
Criminal Defense Attorney
Technically, you can't appeal on this basis since the record (trial transcript, clerk's minutes, etc.) will not show what your attorney did or did not tell you, what you would have done in response, etc.
However, you can seek reversal of your conviction through a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. You would face a very difficult time doing this, but it is possible. You would have to show:
1) Your attorney gave incompetent advice,
2) Had he given correct advice, you would have agreed to plead guilty, and
3) Had your attorney approached the DA, he or she would have offered you something better than what you received.
Note that the law is VERY tough toward defendants in this situation. The California Supreme Court has repeatedly made clear that they don't want to allow convicted defendants with "buyer's remorse" about their decision to plead guilty (or not plead guilty) to easily avoid the consequences of their decision.

Special thanks to the Wisconsin/Nicaragua Partners student chapter for continuing their exceptional planning efforts and clearly demonstrating their desire to stay involved with the youth projects. The photos below are from a packing day at the Stevens Point W/NP warehouse in preparation for an upcoming shipment. The group of students from SPASH (Stevens Point Area Senior High School) came out to learn about what happens after someone donates an item for Nicaragua. There is a fine tuned process in place that assures every donation sent from the Stevens Point warehouse in Wisconsin, travels 2,350 miles ending up in Managua, Nicaragua ready to be delivered to the intended recipients. For example, the AAUW (American Association of University Women) Wausau chapter put together a collection of teacher backpacks for educators in Nicaragua. The backpacks were filled with items that would be helpful to a teacher (pencils, pens, paper, scissors, markers, stickers, flash cards and paper clips). Each backpack was marked with a pink or orange ribbon as a flag to the staff in Nicaragua, that this donation is designated for a teacher rather than what would normally go to a student, teachers need support too! The students (joined by their teachers too who had collected and shared their teaching resources) unloaded and packed the AAUW backpacks along with the backpacks and school supply items they had collected for students and schools in Nicaragua. Only a couple weeks after the packing day, the items departed via 40 ft. container from Stevens Point and arrived June 6, 2012, to Nicaragua.

Which world would you rather wake up in? A) The one where you've got to get up, eat, shower, go to work or school and then repeat. Or B) The one where you're a Time Lord from Gallifrey adventuring across the universe to save the world from evil?
If you chose B, then you'll be needing the Dr Who Dalek Bedside Alarm Clock in your Tardis. (After all, there's nothing worse than having to get up and tackle an army of cybermen, only to realise you've slept in and missed the first half hour of the battle.)
The Clock features a 2D dalek on the face, with a 3D mini dalek on the top. When the alarm goes off the dalek comes to life with LED lights and repeating one of three phrases 'You would make a good Dalek', 'You are an enemy of the Daleks' (isn't everyone) and of course 'Exterminate'. To thwart him, just bop the bubbly bucket of bolts on the head.
The Dr Who Dalek Bedside Alarm Clock is perfect for fans of the Time Lord. How can you tell they're a fan? Well apart from the 3 foot replica of the Tardis on their desk, you might find they turn down invitations on certain days and times or perhaps they make a little shoozhing noise whenever they use a screwdriver..
If you're tired of the monotonous drone of your terrestrial time piece, then it's time (lord) to get yourself the Dr Who Dalek Bedside Alarm Clock.
