I recently discovered this limit the hard way, after being charged a fee for each transfer over the limit. With online banking becoming so prevalent, this is a huge inconvenience as it prevents people from structuring their savings for the best internet rates. What is the reasoning behind this rule?
The regulators (in the past, at least) and banks distinguish demand-deposit (checking) accounts from savings accounts. Checking accounts are without such limits, but savings accounts are subject to withdrawals-per-month limitations. The overall effect of this is to slow the speed with which money flows through the savings account, thus essentially making the money remain on deposit for a longer time. That's exactly why generally savings accounts pay more interest than checking accounts.
Savings accounts aren't transaction accounts, so FRB Regulation D (bstpierre linked to it above) disallow more than 6 withdrawls per month. You can deposit all that you want.
Traditionally, folks who have wanted to maximize earnings for a transaction account would get a money market account. In 2011, rates are so pitful for checking, savings and money market accounts that it is pretty much a waste of time to worry about it.
While the other answers are correct in that the banks are simply complying with the regulation they leave out the reason it is a regulation in the first place. The reason is that the reserve requirements are different based on the type of account. This is intuitive because you would want your bank to have more reserves on hand to satisfy your checking account than you would for them to satisfy your savings account. To prevent banks from giving savings accounts the same features of checking accounts (thereby making them savings accounts in name only) the regulations require restrictions on the features of savings accounts.
Workaround: Carry just enough in your checking account for normal needs, and use online banking or ATM or scheduled transaction to do an inter-account transfer periodically to refill that. My checking account rarely goes over $3k, and that's usually right after the automatic transfer in that funds the mortgage payment. I could run it much lower, but I dislike having to make transfers at the last moment to make sure a check will clear.
ATM transfers are not counted as part of the regulated 6 transfers...it's only phone or internet transfers that count toward that. So, if U transfer from an ATM, U are fine. That's what I do to circumvent stupidity like this.

132 stranded in ski lift mishapApril 08,2013
WARREN A broken chair lift at a Vermont ski resort stranded more than 100 skiers who had to be evacuated from the lift.
A Sugarbush Resort spokesman said 132 people were stranded when the Heavens Gate lift came to a halt Saturday afternoon due to a broken flange.
Patrick Brown said the Sugarbush ski patrol used a rope system to get rescue chairs up to skiers and lower people down one at a time.
The ordeal took about two hours. Nobody was injured.
Skier Markell Ripps of Hanover, N.H., told the Burlington Free Press that she was a bit nervous during the evacuation process, but that everybody was calm and that resort staff were supportive.
Brown said the stranded skiers will get a free day pass for their troubles.MORE IN This Just In

I know you're the DB9 expert. That would have easily been my carry gun if mine actually worked.
This is a discussion on Best Pocket Choice? within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I recommend the LCP as well if you want an auto, or a J-frame/LCR. I don't have experience with the LCR, but I do own ...
I recommend the LCP as well if you want an auto, or a J-frame/LCR. I don't have experience with the LCR, but I do own an LCP and a J-frame and now that I have the LCP I find that when I need to go small and light it is my first choice. The main reason I usually grab the LCP is the thinness and I shoot it significantly better than my 442 despite the marginal sights. The j-frame is a bit easier to draw from a pocket for me due to the shape of the grip and because there is no slide that I have to get my hand underneath.
I know you're the DB9 expert. That would have easily been my carry gun if mine actually worked.

For me, the P238 was a 100 round gun before I got comfortable enough to do controlled pairs at 25 yards. Other guns took much less ammo (my 1911s, Colt Python or S&W 627 Pro and Performance center revolvers) but smaller guns required more time. My P938 wasn't my go to gun until I went over the 450 round mark. I have about 625-650 rounds through it now. My LCR took me 150 rounds because it took a while adjusting to channel sights versus my Tritium sights on my autos.

I'm afraid only you can ultimately decide what works for you as the variety of different opinions here attest to. Basically, you need to figure out first what is the acceptable minimum caliber you will feel confident in. Don't rush this process. Imagine your back to the wall facing someone who wants to cut your guts out and closing fast.
Once caliber is decided, next determine what platform you have the utmost confidence in. Imagine that piece riding around in your pocket for a week or two collecting lint and pocket dirt.
Once you have reduced these things down, it will clear the field of candidates pretty quickly. Then it will be much easier to choose.
" Blessed is that man, who when facing death, thinks only of his front sight"

Best pocket choice?
right front for me.
Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
The Kahr is light, small, and is a fun range gun.
Glock 23 - CZ 452 ZKM Special - Walther P22
LMT STD 16 - Mossberg 500A - Kahr P380
Henry H001Y - Winchester 12
Smith & Wesson M&P Shield - Mossberg 500B
Marlin 336Y - Kahr MK9 - Kel-Tec KSG
I am very comfortable with my LCR/DeSantis Nemesis/Hornady CD setup. Nice and light, good draw from front pocket, but prints more than a LCP, etc.
"The philosophy of gun control: Teenagers are roaring through town at 90MPH, where the speed limit is 25. Your solution is to lower the speed limit to 20."

LCP .Here's size difference with LC9 I've tried pocket carrying the 9..No thanks.
All men are equal...CC makes us equal-er.
I pocket carry a Ruger LCP, .380. It shoot great and has never given me any trouble. I feel adequately armed when I am just running to the grocery store in our small town if I just have the LCP on me. Now, if we are going down closer to Memphis, I will have the LCP as a BUG in a pocket but I will also have either the Kahr CW9 on or, if we are really down in Memphis, it will be the Glock 23 with the LCP in a pocket.

The LCP, TCP, Bodyguard... Again are all good guns.. They are what I call 0-5 guns. You will already be at arms length, being shot at, stabbed, or hit. They don't have good sights for a reason, you will never aim the gun. It's meant to be a point blank shooter, 0-5 yards. The best 0-5 gun can be shot at anytime, with no safety, and no thought, just pull the trigger. Only one gun fits the "real pocket gun" scenario, it can be shot from within the pocket "pants, shirt, jacket" WITHOUT having to even draw...
Say hello to the best pocket gun ever made, the S/W 642
But again if you want an accurate all the time EDC gun for your pocket or even appendix carry the Sig P238 is in a class of its own, there is nothing in its size right now for a small caliber gun on the market IMHO that will preform better.
I can cover it with a T-Shirt and it disappears without printing.
I carry the 642 as my BUG no matter what I'm carrying, and it's always in a special mounted holster in my truck while I'm driving for fast easy deployment incase "stupid" happens.

A small brick-fronted Sullivanesque San Francisco store, designed in 1948, which I understand is now a 'folk art museum.'
The interior is considered a precursor of Wright's 1959 NY Guggenheim Museum.

The top photo looks like the interior of my house. The design, colour and shape of the handles of the stairway are almost exactly the same; and the curves are the same as the upstairs gallery which looks down to the lounge.

Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Feature
Snappy crime drama with decent acting and decently hot sex.
Dick Smothers Jr. plays around with a thief (Roxanne Hall), who steals his cash-filled briefcase - but not before fucking him royally, handcuffing him to his bed and forcing him to chew off his own wrist to get free.
Smothers hires cheap detective Randy Spears to track her down, while Isabella and Jana Cova pleasure each other in the background. Randy gets info from hooker RayVeness, who also "helps him forget."
Randy catches up with Roxanne, with the inevitable result (mish, reverse cowgirl), leaving an intriguing finale.
Best Actor pre-nom for Spears, as well as one for Markman's script.

Classification of the hyperlipoproteinemias permits a rational approach to the diagnosis and management of these conditions. This study included 214 patients with primary hyperlipidemia. The Fredrickson-Lees criteria were used. There were no type 1 cases, 75 type 2, 12 type 3, 71 type 4, 12 type 5, and 44 unclassifiable. Abnormal responses to glucose tolerance tests occurred in 3 of 23 patients with type 2 and 52 of 54 patients with types 3, 4, and 5 disease. Most cases may be classified successfully if the patient's clinical history, fasting serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and serum lactescence are known; in this group, the omission of lipoprotein electrophoresis altered classification in no type 2, six type 3, and four type 4 patients.

No clue about the Red Line, but there's police action at Mass. Ave. on the Orange Line.
The T
Keolis says it's found a way to deal with the fact that commuter-rail passengers with smartphones often know about problems on their lines before their conductors: Give the conductors modified iPhones that let them access "real-time data" on train and rail-line problems.
Keolis this morning begins handing out some 400 of the devices to conductors. Keolis says the phones have been modified so they can't be used to access the Internet, e-mail or any non-Keolis apps. And while they can be used to make emergency calls, "they cannot be used for ordinary phone calls," Keolis says. Read more.
Riverside Line riders are being herded onto buses this morning as T workers try to repair the damage from the tree that fell on the wires at Chestnut Hill this morning. Several bus lines are now running delayed, even aside from the snow, due to buses being diverted to the impromptu D shuttle.
Use buses on existing routes and tie the service to getting workers to their jobs - especially at Logan - rather than worrying about drunken kids spilling out of clubs at 2 a.m., Ari Ofsevit, Jeremy Mendelson and James Aloisi write in CommonWealth.
Updated Back Bay station would be gleaming, a place for quiet contemplation without smog or giant ad banners
In addition to showing the new towers it wants to build above Back Bay station, Boston Properties' BRA filing also shows several renderings of what a revamped station would look like.
They show a station that retains the unique wooden arches that hold up the roof. Gone, at least from the rendering, though, is the haze that now often fills the station, in particular, the Amtrak/commuter-rail ticket and waiting area - Boston Properties is promising a fix to the station's diesel-smog problem. Read more.
The Globe reports the T is looking at replacing the current fare machines on buses and trolleys with new devices that would only accept payments by phone, credit card or CharlieCard.
A T board member said that in addition to speeding up boarding, the new system would satisfy what she claims is public demand to be charged based on distance or time of day. Ed. question: Any of you T riders clamoring to be charged more for riding at rush hour or from Forest Hills to Braintree?
Are you an advocate for Public Transit? If so, this may interest you. National Conference in Boston, open to interested parties.
The T's started posting daily reliability stats, broken down by buses, commuter rail and subway. If you click on the large plus sign for each, you'll get more detailed breakdowns by line (and looks like the T's finally acknowledged the Silver Line is a bus, because that's where you'll find its data).
Adam Castiglioni watched T workers struggle with a door on a train at Park Street around 5:30 p.m., just in time to give commuters who suffered through the morning's delays another chance to ponder their fate in life.
Around 12:40 p.m., debris sitting atop a switch on the inbound Green Line tracks just before Blandford started to smoulder and then just plain out began burning. From inside an inbound trolley, Lucas Neves watched a T inspector try to deal with the situation before Boston firefighters arrived to douse the hot mess.
Encountered this earlier this morning. WTF, given that the "roof" doesn't connect to anything.
This is getting more and more bizarre.
Ari Ofsevit introduces us to several bus routes that run only very early in the morning and which aren't really readily identifiable on schedules or anything, unless you look really, really hard.
It's severe-delay time on both sides of the Red Line as a switch at Alewife has forgotten the one job it has.
Rose pleads:
HELP send coffee & bagels to Harvard @MBTA!
Looks like the covered walkway at North Station is already being dismantled.
An Orange Line train at Downtown Crossing got on the ferry across the River Styx, which the T says is now causing "moderate" delays.
Also, Lowell Line trains were experiencing even worse, thanks to a truck that took out a gate in West Medford.

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Andi Anderson takes it up the ass! Jesse Jordan gets a hot face full! Jordan Carter gulps it down! Kiara Diane takes a load!
Whoever thought of this theme is sheer genius. A knock on the door proves to always be a cute young woman inquiring as to whether this is the correct place for the fiesta. But to get in, the password requires the babes to show their tits. Once inside, everything is pretty much obvious and the gal gets into a hot, heavy and sloppy mostly POV scene with the homeowner—with emphasis on the messy facial finish. Fun girls!
Andi Anderson's password includes admission in her ass. Lichelle Marie and Brooke Belle arrive at the same time and end up in a threesome. Jordan Carter steals the show with her huge round ass making a perfect target for the lucky stiff—she is incredible. Great tits, too. Recommended.

BLESSING: Bless us with the fertility we seek. May our minds, spirits and bodies become fertile with our wishes, quickly manifesting our hearts desire.

Kiss of the Spider Woman scribe Leonard Schrader has been named head of the AFI Conservatory's graduate screenwriting program. In his new post as senior filmmaker-in-residence: screenwriting, Schrader will oversee all screenwriting faculty at the Conservatory and teach both first- and second-year fellows. "We are thrilled to have such an outstanding member of the filmmaking and higher-education community as a member of the Conservatory's core faculty," Conservatory dean Sam Grogg said. "Len is a master of his art form, and screenwriting fellows will learn much under his tutelage." Schrader's professional career spans four decades and includes several projects on which he collaborated with his younger brother and AFI alumnus, writer-director Paul Schrader. The brothers collaborated on such films as The Yakuza, Blue Collar and Old Boyfriends. Leonard Schrader went on to write several successful Japanese films, including The Man Who Stole the Sun, before earning an Oscar nomination for Spider Woman in 1986. He made his directorial debut in 1991 with Naked Tango. As an educator, Schrader taught the screenwriting Master's thesis class at USC from 1996-99 and was an associate professor of film at Chapman University from 1999-2003. »

text: Goldman Sachs Group (GS) Securities and investment management company Goldman Sachs ( GS) has also fallen on hard times as of late. Year-to-date, Goldman's stock has slipped -8.7%, compared to the broader markets which have remained close to even. Since last September, the stock has dropped -11.8%, so the problems at Goldman are not new. Additionally, GS underperformed earnings estimates by nearly -63%. Goldman reported EPS of $0.78, after experts projected EPS of $2.08. All these factors, as well as the chance that the legendary GS proprietary trading unit may be deep sixed due to new SEC rules, make Goldman Sachs an expensive stock to avoid. JP Morgan Chase (JPM) Compared to other financial stocks on this list, JP Morgan Chase ( JPM) has not had a disastrous year. That being said, JPM's 2010 has been far from successful. Over the past nine months, JP Morgan has dropped -2%, compared to the broader markets which have remained even. Since last September, the stock is down -3%. Experts do not appear to be thrilled with the stock's performance either, projecting EPS of just $0.89 next quarter, despite EPS of $1.09 last quarter. Things could be worse for this financial stock, yet it still remains a stock to sell. Lloyds (LYG) Working primarily in the UK, Lloyds Banking Group provides a range of banking and financial services to its clients. This financial stock has done well in 2010, up +46% year-to-date. However, the stock still remains a shell of its former self with a stock price of just $4.78 and I'm not convinced that the upward momentum can continue much longer. There need to be wholesale improvements in lending, employment, foreclosures and consumer spending before gains like that will stick for any financial company. Get out of Lloyds while the getting is good. Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) Royal Bank of Scotland ( RBS) is another banking stock that at first glance seems to have had recent success. In 2010, the stock has climbed nearly +63%. While the first nine months of 2010 may have been kind to this financial stock, the last year has not. Despite the gain, RBS is still down -17% over the past year. Likewise, the stock is down an incredible -93% over the past five years. It's -8.3% profit margin in its last income statement is hardly a selling point -- unless it is investors that need to be doing the selling. Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC) Diversified Financial service company Wells Fargo ( WFC) is another big-name financial stock worth selling. Since mid May, WFC's stock price has fallen -19.9%, or $6.54. In fact, it's been some time since Wells Fargo maintained any real financial growth, having dropped -11.8% over the past five years. More recently, WFC has disappointed stock holders by missing earnings estimates three of the last four quarters. This has caused experts to predict EPS of $0.54 this quarter after an EPS of $0.55 last quarter. Add a quarterly earnings growth of -3.5% into the equation, and Wells Fargo is a financial stock to sell. As of this writing, Louis Navellier did not own a position in any of the stocks named here.

Tropes which apply to everyone
- Badass Bookworm: While none of them have superior education, all are well read (the sheer number of Filk Songs is a great indicative) and managed great feats, such as both Bruce and Nicko learning to fly aircraft.
- Cool Old Guy: All the band members are now in their late 50's or early 60's and still going strong.
- Cool Plane: They go on tours in a customized Boeing (first a 757, then a 747) called "Ed Force One", piloted by Bruce Dickinson himself (who works as a commercial pilot between rocking).
- Digital Piracy Is Okay: The band couldn't give less of a flying rat's behind if you downloaded their music. In fact, they encourage downloading of their music, and have even gone so far as to state "We're not like Metallica".
"I have some... I collect them."
- In an interview with Steve Harris, when asked about bootlegs
"... if you wanna record this song and you wanna put it on a world wide web - on the internet, so all your friends could listen to it - as long as you buy the album in September - we don't give a fuck my friends!"
- The band also asked fans attending the first leg of Somewhere Back in Time to send over any video footage they took during the concerts, as they were hoping to include it in their documentary Flight 666.
- In the Give me Ed 'Til I'm Dead Tour, Bruce said this once:
- Distaff Counterpart: The all-female, California-based tribute band The Iron Maidens. Special mention should go to the lead singer, Bruce Chickinson. Rather than being just a novelty act, all of the members of the Iron Maidens are accomplished musicians who do such a good job covering Maiden's songs that they've received praise from the group itself.
- A Good Name for a Rock Band: The band is named after a torture device, which appeared in the 1938 version of The Man in the Iron Mask and caught Steve's eye.
- Gratuitous Panning: With 2 or 3 guitarists, they had to use it.
- Great Balls of Fire: In addition to pyrotechnics, their shows include elaborate setpieces, a guy dressed as Eddie, and sometimes Bruce in costume and/or mask.
- Long Runner Line Up: Hasn't changed since 1999.
- Rated M for Manly
- Real Men Wear Pink: As badass and manly as they are, they're not afraid to put out really weepy songs from time to time.
- Revolving Door Band: The early days of the band were very tumultuous. In fact, it took several albums before they even had the same lineup on two consecutive recordings.
- Scary Musician, Harmless Music: Inverted. They don't attempt to look intimidating (the horror is left for Eddie), but the music is often ominous.
- Start My Own: The less known drummer Thunderstick has also made a couple solo efforts after quitting Samson.
- Wild Hair: Everyone, though Bruce has kept his hair short ever since the reunion.
Eddie the Head
Arguably, the true Face of the Band. He started as a creation of Derek Riggs for a punk band, which got rejected. Harris then picked him up, and the rest is history. Eddie has been part of the band since their very beginnings.
- A Lady on Each Arm: In the Women In Uniform single cover.
- An Axe to Grind: In Killers.
- And Show It to You \ Beat Still, My Heart: Part of The Book of Souls artwork has Eddie doing this with his own heart.◊
- Art Evolution: See it for yourself: compare this◊ and this◊ to this◊ and this◊.
- Or, if you consider the fact that the first two are one artist, the latter two another: recent one from the first artist, and the first◊ from the other.
- CGI Actor: In the Dance of Death cover.
- Evil Albino
- Evil Overlooker: In Brave New World◊ and Rock in Rio◊
- Glowing Eyelights of Undeath
- The Grim Reaper: In Dance of Death and one of the covers of "Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter".
- Humanoid Abomination: In The Final Frontier. Or So It Seems◊...
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Cover of "Hallowed Be Thy Name" -single from 1993 depicts him as a devil impaling Bruce Dickinson, who was leaving the band, with a pitchwork.
- Metal Band Mascot: Although Motörhead's War-Pig precedes him, Eddie is the Trope Codifier.
- Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: He takes this trope Up to Eleven. Eddie is already a zombie, but throughout the years he has been a cyborg, the devil, the Grim Reaper, The Phantom of the Opera, Pharaoh, bounty hunter, WWII pilot, dinosaur hunter, evil tree, king, alien....
- Off with His Head!: The original Maiden Japan◊ cover had him decapitating the departing Paul Di'Anno.
- Our Zombies Are Different
- People Puppets: He's controlling the devil (who in turn seems to control a regular human) in The Number of the Beast.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Depending on the album cover.
- Rise from Your Grave: In the covers of Live After Death and No Prayer for the Dying.
- The Savage Indian \ Tribal Face Paint: A Maya-inspired version in The Book of Souls.
- Take That: In the cover of Sanctuary he's seen murdering Margaret Thatcher (who eventually returns to stalk him on the cover of Women In Uniform for revenge). He's also used a bit more lightheartedly when a band member departs, such as Paul Di'Anno and Bruce (though the latter came back).
- Team Pet
- The Undead: He's often portrayed as a zombie of some form.
- Verbal Tic Name: He started as a head that hanged above the drum kit. When the band members mentioned it, the London accent made it sound like "'ead", which soon evolved into "Eddie".
- Writer Revolt: He's much destroyed in Seventh Son of a Seventh Son because Derek Riggs wanted to have less and less of Eddie to draw. But a kind of Continuity Reboot occurred as the band asked a "full" Eddie in the follow-up No Prayer for the Dying.
Actual line-up
Paul Bruce Dickinson - Vocals
Arguably Iron Maiden's most well-known member, Bruce Dickinson sung in several bands before singing in Samson, band which was part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal in the early eighties. In 1982, after Paul Di'Anno left the band, he was hired as the new singer. That same year, The Number of the Beast came out, and the rest is known history. He has also a solo career, which comprises albums of Hard Rock, (Tattooed Millionaire) Grunge (Skunkworks) and Heavy Metal. (Accident of Birth, The Chemical Wedding and Tyranny Of Souls)
The man has done enough to be guaranteed an own page.
Adrian Smith - Guitar
One of Maiden's main composers, Adrian joined the band in 1981, coming from Urchin. He was responsible for many of Maiden's biggest hits, and the band took a big hit in 1990 with his departure. He then had some Hard Rock projects (A.S.A.P., Psycho Motel) and played with Bruce Dickinson in two of his solo albums (Accident Of Birth and The Chemical Wedding) before coming back to Maiden in 1999, along with Bruce.
- Badass Beard
- Creative Differences: He was tired of Iron Maiden's heavy sound, so he went to do his own project. ("Adrian Smith And Project", also known as "A.S.A.P.")
- Perpetual Frowner: Scowls constantly, in contrast to Dave.
- The Smart Guy: Well known for this, to the point his solos are heavily planned compared to the improvisation of Dave and the dirty sound of Janick.
- Start My Own: He made a solo effort called A.S.A.P. in the late 80's.
Janick Gers - Guitar
He started in The '80s playing in a band called White Spirit. Then, he played with several musicians such as Fish, Ian Gillan and groups and projects such as Gogmagog (where he played with Clive Burr and Paul Di'Anno, former members of Iron Maiden) and Bruce Dickinson's first solo album. It was in fact thanks to Bruce that he was hired for Iron Maiden, as replacement for the then exiting Adrian Smith. He never left the band since then, even when Adrian Smith came back in 1999.
- Aerith and Bob: Inverted: Paul, Adrian, Dave, Michael, Steve... and Janick.
- Keet: He's really, really hyperactive. No wonder Eddie normally chases him on stage.
- Long-Haired Pretty Boy: He has VERY long hair. Nowadays that certainly hasn't changed- in fact, it may be even moreso now that it's straighter.
- Sixth Ranger: After Dickinson and Smith returned to the band. Specially as Smith asked to Harris that Gers shouldn't leave the band in order for him to return.
Dave Murray - Guitar
The only member of the band, along with Steve Harris, which played in every album Iron Maiden recorded.
- Bishōnen: Oh so very much◊.
- Chick Magnet: Related to the above, in the early days of the band he earned quite some mail from female fans (and their jealous boyfriends...).
- The Chick \ The Heart: He's the only guy aside from Steve in every album, so no doubt he's the one that connects the band, and his guitar has the signature Maiden sound. It's even truer regarding the other guitarists: Janick said that despite never playing with another guitarist before, with Dave "we just got together and it seemed to gel"; and Adrian added that "If I write a song Ill usually play the solo in it and then Davey or Jan will do the other solo - usually Davey - and then again if Jan writes a song Davey will play the solo - so Davey gets to play everything "
- Perpetual Smiler: Always seen with a grin.
Steve Harris - Bass
- Berserk Button: Do not suggest that Iron Maiden was influenced in any way, shape, or form by punk rock when Steve Harris is around. His contempt for the punkish debut album shows perfectly.
- Creator Breakdown: The X Factor was an album Darker and Edgier than even Fear of the Dark. A lot of it comes from Steve Harris's divorce and his dad passing away. "Blood Brothers", from Brave New World is said to be about said death.
- Fan Nickname: "'Arry"
- I Am the Band: He's the leader, founder, and only constant member of the band. In some albums, he even wrote or collaborated in all songs.
- The Leader \ Lead Bassist
- The Napoleon: Not as grumpy as most examples of the trope, still hot-blooded, short (the same height as Napoleon himself!), and in a position of power.
- Not Christian Rock: He said he's not religious, even if many songs deal with spirituality. But the band is far from being Satanist.
- Record Producer: After Martin Birch's retirement, he took part of the producing duties since The X Factor.
- Step Up to the Microphone: Immediately before Maiden's second ever gig, Paul Di'Anno was arrested outside the club they were due to perform in for carrying a concealed switchblade. Ron Smallwood, their prospective manager, ended up ordering Steve to sing on the basis that he was the only one who knew all of the lyrics.
- The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter: Steve Harris looks ok, but not spectacular. He is, however, the father of Lauren Harris◊ (her sisters Faye◊ and Kerry◊ also qualify).
Michael Henry "Nicko" McBrain - Drums
- All Drummers Are Animals: He even kicks the bass drum instead of using a double bass pedal!
- The Big Guy
- Fun Personified
- Funny Answering Machine: Any and all of the "Listen With Nicko" tracks.
- Garfunkel: He can be seen as this, considering that all the other 5 members are prolific composers but he has only written one album track ("New Frontier"). But he compensates by being one of the best drummers in the business.
- Real Men Love Jesus: He's a rather devout Christian.
- Stage Names: He picked up that nick because of his favourite puppet. It was initially "Nick", then a stupid manager added the O to make him sound Italian.
- Studio Chatter: Nicko has one in each of the last three albums. Also, the "Listen With Nicko" tracks in the re-releases of The '80s' singles.
- Team Chef: Nicko is a lover of American barbecue cuisine, and he even owns a restaurant called "Rock N Roll Ribs" in Coral Springs, Florida.
Former membersBe aware that we're counting just those who recorded at least one album with the band. With that said...
Dennis Stratton - Guitar
- Creative Differences: He left the band because, according to Steve Harris in the DVD The Early Days, he was composing stuff which wasn't fit for what Maiden was.
- Only in It for the Money: Joined the band because he had a wife and daughter to support. Soon found he didn't quite fit.
- The Smart Guy: Before Smith's arrival.
Paul Andrews (Paul Di'Anno) - Vocals
- Badass Biker: He's a member of the famous motorcycle club, The Hells Angels.
- Badass Grandpa: He certainly likes to think he's one.
- Biography: Di'Anno has written an autobiography, titled The Beast. The book is full of his rock star exploits, namely getting drunk, banging groupies, and beating people up.
- Berserk Button: Di'Anno is known for starting fights with people who anger him, as mentioned in his book The Beast. Also evidenced with an infamous show in Ukraine where Paul was going to beat up a fan who suggested that Bruce Dickinson was a better singer than him (even though Paul made a similar statement in the early days).
- Fan Myopia: Fans are often surprised that Paul's favorite Maiden album is "The Number Of The Beast" and not either of the two he sang on.
- Harsh Vocals: Due to his punk background, and was probably one of the earliest heavy metal examples.
- Hell-Bent for Leather: He rarely ever performed without his leather jacket during his Maiden days.
- I Was Quite a Looker: It's fair to say that Paul has◊...let himself go◊ in recent years.
- The Lancer: Before Dickinson's arrival.
- Large and in Charge: Every band he's been in since he left Maiden has very much been under his control. He's also still a very large and imposing man, despite being nearly 60.
- Name's the Same: He shares his "Paul" name with Paul Day, and Paul Bruce Dickinson, both former and current vocalists of Maiden.
- He also had a band called Killers (named after the Iron Maiden album), not to be confused with The Killers.
- Never Live It Down: Paul has been in many bands since Maiden, but despite their work being well received, it wasn't paying the bills in the same way that playing old Maiden songs live did. Unfortunately, this caused Paul to become so bored with the material that he slurs the lyrics when doing them live.
- Stage Names: He's got Italian and Brazilian parentage, and thus created a surname that reflected the former heritage.
- Start My Own: He went on many solo projects as well. (Battlezone, Killers and the band Di'Anno) Sadly subverted in that the majority of Di'Anno's solo career is spent playing old Maiden songs, either live, re-recording them for "best of" compilations, or appearing on Iron Maiden tribute albums.
Clive Burr - Drums
- The Big Guy: Before Nicko's arrival.
- Killed Off for Real: He passed away on the 13th of March, 2013 from medical complications related to multiple sclerosis.
- Littlest Cancer Patient: He left music due to multiple sclerosis. Maiden has since founded a research fund on that disease to help him.
- Start My Own: After Maiden, he played on Trust (Nicko's former band) Gogmagog (along his former Maiden bandmate Paul Di'Anno) and several other projects.
"Blaze" Bayley Cook - Vocals
- The Lancer: Before and after Dickinson.
- Stage Names: Since "Bayley" is usually a surname, he got tired of being asked his first name. He then eventually went for Blaze "because it was dangerous sounding like being on fire."
- Start My Own: He went solo when he left the band. Many Metal fans consider it way better than his Maiden years.

LEAWOOD, Kan. (AP) _ A Kansas City suburb has unanimously approved a measure that legalizes coyote trapping.
The vote Monday night was a response to coyote attacks on pets in Leawood, Kan. The ordinance allows the city to trap coyotes on public property only and requires homeowners' associations to obtain permits to trap the animals on private land.
The National Humane Society objected to trapping as inhumane and ineffective, and suggested that the city instead try to capture coyotes in a cage.
Animal control officers say coyote attacks in Leawood have killed at least 11 pets this year.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) _ Police say Jones and 18-year-old Gage Hauk of McLouth went to a Lawrence home early Saturday to rob the occupant, 20-year-old Roland Klundt. Police believe Klundt shot Hauk, and that Jones then shot Klundt.
The law allows someone to be charged with murder in the
commission of a felony even if the murder wasn't committed by their
Sgt. Paul Fellers said Klundt was acquainted with Hauk and
Jones is scheduled to make his first court appearance Tuesday
afternoon in Douglas County District Court. Jones was charged as a
juvenile late Monday, but prosecutors can file a motion later to
have him charged as an adult.

Whether you're planting bulbs, annuals or perennials, flower gardens add a beautiful splash of color throughout the season. While growing flowers is not difficult, there are many factors that must be considered prior to planting. The more closely these plans are based on meeting the needs of your plants, the more likely you are to be successful. Click on the blog articles below for ideas, guides and more.
Organic gardeners have been growing roses for well over 2,000 years!
Loved for their beauty and fragrance, roses are cultivated for a variety of landscape effects or for cutting. The members of the genus Rosa are prickly stemmed shrubs with a wide range of heights and growing habits. There are as many as 150-200 species and thousands of varieties, from miniatures (6 inches to 2 feet tall) to climbers that may grow 20 feet or more. Perennial.
Site Preparation
Roses like a good, well-drained soil and will grow best in protected spots with ample water and full sun. Plants require at least 8-10 hours of sunlight per day for optimum growth. (more…)
The beautiful, soft-petaled, easy-to-grow petunia is a flower straight from our childhood.
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade
Maturity: 55-75 days from seed to flower
Height: 10 to 18 inches
Spacing: 8 to 18 inches apart in all directions
Flower gardeners are growing petunias for their dazzling colors and prolific blooms that continue from early spring until frost. Available in hundreds of varieties, petunias are one of the most popular flowering annuals and are well suited for use in borders, baskets and containers.
Native to South America, the first petunia specimen (Petunia multiflora) was discovered at the mouth of the Rio de la Plata and was white in color. The original plants were hardy, had trailing 2-3 inch stems and incredible scents. These scents have been lost in many of the modern-day hybrid varieties. Fortunately, many of the old fashioned, heirloom varieties are still available to fill the air with their amazing fragrance. Plants grow 10-18 inches tall. Self-seeding annual. (more…)
Planting and caring for pansies, an heirloom garden favorite.
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade
Maturity: 60-85 days from seed to flower
Height: 4 to 10 inches
Spacing: 6 to 12 inches apart in all directions
One of the most widely grown of all garden flowers, pansies (Viola x wittrockiana) — also known as violas — will bloom in a variety of colors all summer long and thrives in cool spring-time conditions. Striking plants with beautiful, round-faced blossoms are perfect for growing in containers, rock gardens, borders or edging. Plants are short lived in hot environments. Self-seeding perennial (grown as an annual in the North), 4-10 inches tall. (more…)
Here's how to grow this beautiful annual with its trailing vines and colorful, edible blossoms in pots and garden beds.
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade
Maturity: 55-70 days from seed to flower
Height: 12 to 18 inches
Spacing: 8 to 12 inches apart in all directions
A quick and easy-to-grow annual that reseeds itself freely. Home gardeners are growing nasturtium (Tropaeolum) for their colorful flowers and attractive foliage. Great for cool-weather climates, beautiful blossoms can also brighten up salads and pastas… they're edible! (more…)
A true old-fashioned beauty, annual morning glory vines with their large, trumpet-shaped flowers in a variety of wonderful soft colors are easy to grow.
Sunlight: Full sun
Maturity: 75-110 days from seed to flower
Height: 6 to 15 feet if grown on a trellis
Spacing: 4 to 6 inches apart in all directions
A favorite! Home flower gardeners are growing morning glory (Ipomoea) for their vibrant colors including purples, reds, pinks and blues. This vigorous vining plant is often found covering country fences where their delicate flowers greet you with the morning sun.
Perfect for covering walls, privacy screens and lattice — give these hardy annuals support and watch them grow! Dwarf varieties, with their multi-colored blossoms, are especially unique! Self-seeding annual. (more…)
One of the simplest – and most beautiful – flowers to grow, marigolds guarantee a reliable splash of color all summer long.
Sunlight: Full sun
Maturity: 50-80 days from seed to flower
Height: 6 to 18 inches
Spacing: 8 to 18 inches apart in all directions
Marigolds (Tagates erecta) are an easy-to-grow, compact flower ranging in color from pale yellow to deep orange and rust. They make a spectacular addition to containers and borders or scattered throughout the garden. Also, great for dried blossom arrangements.
Marigolds tolerate a wide range of soil and climate conditions, but especially love heat. There are many varieties of this cheerful garden favorite from miniature to giant. Try growing marigolds in and around vegetable plants to repel insect pests. Hardy annual. (more…)
Tips for raising natural, water-wise lupine from seeds and cuttings.
A favorite spring-time activity, growing lupine (Lupinus polyphyllus) provides flower gardeners with a wide and brilliant array of colors. Plants have stiff, erect flower spikes of 1-4 feet that emerge from horizontal foliage. Flowers are similar to those of peas or sweet peas and grow in large, crowded racemes of deep blue, purple, yellow, pink or white. Found growing wild throughout most of the northern United States. Short-lived perennial.
Site Preparation:
Easy to grow, lupine thrives in cool, moist locations. It prefers full sun to light shade and average soils, but will tolerate sandy, dry soil. Plants develop long taproots, so loosen the soil to a depth of 12-20 inches using a roto-tiller or garden fork. They will not grow in clay.
Tip: For dramatic results, mass lupines in borders or scatter them throughout the cottage garden (see Flower Gardening 101). (more…)
A favorite! The many types of lilies and their large, attractive flowers add dramatic color wherever they're planted.
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade
Maturity: 70-120 days after spring growth
Height: 1 to 6 feet
Spacing: 8 to 12 inches apart in all directions
One of the most beautiful summer-flowering plants, lilies (lilium) are grown by home gardeners for their exquisite trumpet-shaped blooms. Stems are strong, upright and unbranched, 1-6 feet tall. Flowers are large, beautifully colored in both bold and pastel shades and often fragrant.
Lilies may be grown individually in formal or naturalistic settings or en mass. Smaller species make excellent container plants. Blooms from late spring through early autumn, depending on species. Hardy perennial. (more…)
Seed and care for these charming, heirloom favorites and they'll fill with pastel blooms growing up to nine feet.
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade
Maturity: 365 days or more from seed to flower
Height: 4 to 9 feet
Spacing: 18 to 36 inches apart in all directions
Home flower gardeners enjoy growing hollyhocks in borders or against walls and fences where their spectacular flowers stand tall above all else. The classic variety (Alcea rosea) has graced outbuildings and farmsteads for more than a century. Very attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds.
Showy blooms of white, light-pink, magenta and burgundy completely cover 4 to 9 foot stalks. Hollyhocks are considered a biennial, that is, they grow foliage the first year and flower, form seeds and die the next. Plants easily self-seed to provide an endless supply of blossoms. (more…)
Grown from bulbs known as corms, the many types of gladiolus are favored for their showy blossoms and classic, spiky stems.
Sunlight: Full sun
Maturity: 70-95 days from corm to flower
Height: 2 to 5 feet
Spacing: 4 to 6 inches apart in all directions
Gladiolus with their dramatic sword-like leaves have sturdy flowering stems that grow up to 5 feet tall. The trumpet-shaped flowers come in shades of almost every color and are the perfect backdrop to garden beds. Home flower gardeners particularly enjoy growing gladiolus for long-lasting cuttings and floral bouquets. (more…)

I've searched but didn't find appropriate answer, so i create my own question. We have a few Windows 2003 SP2 servers, each running .NET services launched from both local machine and windows share. But already second time we get error: Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion when trying to restart services on one specific server, second works as it should be. Share with executable is available, opens normally, have right permissions. So everything looks the same on both servers, but one gives that errors to all services we launch. If we reboot that server- it's working ok for a few days or a week, and then it starts again.
Anyone have suggestions what can that be?

Young Frankenstein at 40: not so young, but still Brooks' finest film
Director Mel Brooks spent a lot of money on white handkerchiefs while making his 1974 tour de farce, Young Frankenstein. "I gave everybody in the crew a white handkerchief," said the 88-year-old comedy legend during a recent phone interview. "I said, 'When you feel like laughing, put this in your mouth.' Every once in a while, I'd turn around and see a sea of white handkerchiefs, and I said, 'I got a hit.'"An interview with Mel Brooks on the 40th anniversary of Young Frankenstein, with an overview of the events that lead to what Mel Brooks calls 'by far the best movie I ever made.'

Corey Feldman - Ascension Millennium
Corey Feldman is probably most widely recognized as a child star of the 1980s, but since then he has branched out into music. Yet with two group albums and two solo albums, his only music video appearances have been cameos (Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night" [Funny or Die] and Mac Miller's "S.D.S." [YouTube]). That is, until now: "Ascension Millennium" (YT) is the first song off his forthcoming album, and it's "a musical journey through his 'Feldmansion' in this Day in the Life Adventure," complete with an appearance from his pal Sean Astin from "The Goonies" and tributes to Michael Jackson. [more inside]
Annihilated Angel
His artistic obscurity - relative to the stars of the New York School - had nothing to do with his personality, which was gregarious, funny and stimulating, and everything to do with his music, which was concerned with values of reticence, quietness, faintness, stillness; hardly the sort of thing to make headlines in a world where the avant garde was supposed to épater and outrage. As Michael Finnissy, one of his most stalwart British advocates, put it, "I don't think Morton Feldman's music is ever going to be that popular." There are lots of reasons for this, and they are all good reasons for listening to the music. [1995] [more inside]
An Unorthodox Controversy
In February, author Deborah Feldman spoke with xoJane's (and Metafilter's own) hermitosis about the backlash she experienced from the Hasidic community in the days leading up the release of her tell-all memoir "Unorthodox: The Scandalous Rejection of my Hasidic Roots." Today xoJane granted another Hasidic woman from the interview post her own rebuttal to the original article, "What Women's Media Needs to Know About Chassidic Women," in which she defends her religion against feminists and "poor Deborah Feldman" sympathizers. Metafilter's own hermitosis responds in the comments.
"Though I hadn't seen him in over twenty years, I knew I'd miss him forever"
"Most actors will go their entire careers without doing a movie like Stand By Me, or working with a director like Rob Reiner. I got to do both when I was 12. For a long, long time, I felt like I needed to top or equal that, and it wasn't until I was in my early 30s that I accepted that it's unlikely to happen -- movies like Stand By Me come along once in a generation."The cast of Stand By Me(link has autoplaying sound,) recently recorded some interviews to promote the re-release of the movie on Blu-Ray.

Intercon Hotel is a Hotel that is evolving with the country. My first stay here was in 2004. They Hotel has made vast improvements in things like flat screen TV's, new furniture and decor, the Club Intercontinental is very very nice, and the Internet is 200% better than my first experience. The one thing that has not changed is the kindness of the people who serve. George and Felix meet you at the door with a smile and if you are returning, your name and they even try hard to remember you. Siamanta Martha is ready to check you in with a smile and a preprepared accommodation. Samson is one of the many improvements. When I first stayed, he was the internationally known, bigger than life, head bellman. Now they have recognized his value and promoted him to head Concierge. He is always ahead of the game and ready to meet any need. The club on the sixth floor is well staffed. Lucy and the rest do an amazing job and the young cooks are always ready to supply and fulfill any of your custom request. Finally, the area that has improved the most is the wifi capability of the building. While there are still some needed up-grades, the service is much improved and getting better each day. The best up-grade is Kennedy. He is an enthusiastic assistant, knowledgeable of the system, and familiar with most operating systems. He helped my trip become superior and special rather than just great. It is nice to find an employee who is competent and smiles while he works. Thank you Kennedy.
Well, if you're looking for a US Family resort that is quiet and still and luxury at every turn,this is not your place. If you desire a business friendly, well appointed, competently staffed Hotel where customer service is king, then this is your place. Oh yea, don't forget to have a great massage by Jane down in the basement spa. She is great and truly African.
This is the place to stay for great customer service, good food, clean rooms, and relaxing style. It's in my book as the place to go when working in Africa.

Classics from a Golden Era,
This review is from: Looney Tunes Platinum Collection: Volume One (Ultimate Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I absolutely love having this DVD set. Nowadays, whenever you watch "The Bugs Bunny & Tweety Show," you get the same cycle of watered-down, ultra-politically correct cartoons.
This set reminds me of what cartoons were about. The music, and special features regarding music are unreal! Each feature had amazing orchestration, animation as well as voice work. Speaking of voices, Mel Blanc is in fine form as always.
I feel like this set is more for die-hards rather than just the casual fan. Regardless, the enjoyment that it has provided myself and my family make it well worth the price.

Drinking coffee and tea could provide more than just a daily pick-me up.
According to new analysis, people who drink coffee, decaffeinated coffee and tea seem to have a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Researchers combined data from 31 studies and found that for each cup of coffee drank per day, there was a seven percent reduction in the risk of developing the disease.
Those who drank three to four cups a day had approximately 25 percent lower risk than people who drank two cups or less.
Individuals who drank more than three to four cups of decaf had about a one-third lower risk, and people who drank more than three to four cups of tea per day had a one-fifth lower risk than those who did not.
Currently, doctors believe a compound found in these drinks may protect against type 2 diabetes.

BOSTON -- Vladimir Guerrero is likely to return to right
field for the first time in a month when the Los Angeles Angels
play the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 of their AL playoff series on
Angels manager Mike Scioscia also said that Garret Anderson
could play left despite conjunctivitis that swelled his right eye
so much it looks like he took a punch.
Guerrero hasn't started in right field since Sept. 4 because of
an irritated right triceps that limited him to designated hitter.
"Everything looks good," Scioscia said after Guerrero worked
out in right field Thursday, a day after the Angels lost 4-0 in the
series opener.
Guerrero threw to second and third a few times and said there
was no pain.
"It's gone," Guerrero said. "If I had any pain right now, I
probably would not force Mike to put me in the outfield. I don't
feel anything right now."
Anderson declined comment after the workout. He was 0-for-4 with
two strikeouts against Boston's Josh Beckett in the opener.
"I think it looks a lot worse than it is," Scioscia said of
Anderson's eye. "Garret assures us his vision's there, he's seeing
the ball, and that's what's important. Unless his left eye looks as
bad as his right eye tomorrow, he's starting."
Guerrero's return to the outfield would free up the DH spot for
Juan Rivera or Kendry Morales.
The Angels' offense is keyed by Guerrero, who batted .324 and
led the team with 27 homers and 125 RBIs. He has 107 outfield
assists in the past decade, second in the AL behind Mark Kotsay
Guerrero said he feels more comfortable playing when he's in the
"I spent so much time in the National League playing right
field that it feels more like I'm home playing right field," he
The Angels had just four hits in the opener, when Beckett beat
them with his second straight postseason shutout. Since winning
their 2005 AL championship series opener against the Chicago White
Sox, the Angels have lost five straight postseason games, totaling
just eight runs and 24 hits.
"We can talk about the way we can run the bases, unless you get
out of the batter's box ... that's not going to play," Scioscia
said. "And you saw how we struggled last night. So we need more in
the batter's box, and we'll look at some options."
Guerrero didn't think Wednesday's loss would add pressure
"If we play the way we played throughout the season, there's no
need to feel pressure," he said. "We know we can play our game.
What happened last night, they just played a good game. We've just
got to put it behind us and keep going."

I have written my own plugin which I want activated site-wide to all my users' blogs. I am using the admin_footer hook, because I want this plugin to fire each time an admin page displays.
As the admin user, I have activated my plugin site wide. The plugin works for me as admin user.
Next, I self-registered "UserA" and a new blog was automatically created. However, the plugin is not firing for UserA.
I have been debugging the code and traced all the way into plugin.php
do {
foreach ( (array) current($wp_filter[$tag]) as $the_ )
if ( !is_null($the_['function']) )
call_user_func_array($the_['function'], array_slice($args, 0, (int) $the_['accepted_args']));
My function does not appear in $the_['function'] as UserA, but it does as admin.
Can anyone explain why this would be happening?
Here is how I tested and debugged. My plugin looks like this:
add_action("admin_footer", 'testAdminFooterHook', 5);
function testAdminFooterHook()
echo "<script language='javascript' >\n";
echo "alert('test admin_footer hook')";
echo "</script >\n";
Have I forgotten to do something? I want to impose this plugin on all my site's users.
The strangest part is that if I log in as administrator, and view UserA's blog dashboard, then everything works. It's as if as soon as the admin touches the blog, the plugin is registered.

Okay... If the speed of light is 186282 miles per second, what is the speed of dark? Dark is always just ahead of light and right behind light, does that mean it has two speeds?
dark has no speed it is merely the absence of light. light being both a wave and a particle is not in all places at once so it is possible for there to be 0 light. light is the reason we can see due to it reflecting off of different surfaces, want to ask more?

Do Movies Shape Reality?

Although an infrequent moviegoer, I recently chose to attend a movie mostly because of its cast. I had enjoyed previous movies of two cast members in particular and considered them very talented actresses.
The title of the movie could have been "The Ultimate Family Dysfunction." The movie did contain excellent acting, but the level of vulgar language, profanity and deplorable family interaction spoiled the movie experience. This was evidenced by several groups leaving during the movie.
At the price of revealing my age, I miss the old sitcoms such as "Father Knows Best," "Leave It to Beaver," "My Three Sons." They may have been unrealistic, but they did depict family dynamics to be desired and sought.
We live in an age of "reality" entertainment. However, I wonder if the extreme violence and crude language in today's movies, TV programs and music truly depict reality.
After seeing and hearing something often enough, words and situations that previously would have been foreign to us begin to creep into our thoughts, then escape from our lips, and finally become a part of our everyday vocabulary and activities.
Does today's entertainment industry depict reality or does it help shape reality?
