Having fun with other peopleÆs music has been serious Ś and successful Ś business for Weird Al Yankovic.
Some 32 years after Dr. Demento first aired ōMy Bologna,ö YankovicÆs parody of the KnackÆs ōMy Sharona,ö on his radio show, the accordion-playing California nativeÆs act is still going strong. In fact, YankovicÆs 2011 album ōAlpocalypseö scored the best chart showing of his career Ś No. 1 Comedy and No. 9 on the Billboard 200 Ś and scored a pair of Grammy Award nominations.
ThatÆs on top of sales of more than 12 million albums and hit alterations of Michael JacksonÆs ōBeat Itö(ōEat Itö) and ōBadö (ōFatö), MadonnaÆs ōLike a Virginö (ōLike a Surgeonö), Chamillionaire and Krayzie BoneÆs ōRidinÆō (ōWhite & Nerdyö) and, last year, Lady GagaÆs ōBorn This Wayö (ōPerform This Wayö).
ōIn general, IÆm thrilled with it all,ö says Yankovic, 52. ōItÆs nice to have the bragging rights, to be able to say my most recent album is my highest-charting album. I could complain about record sales, but thatÆs a problem that affects everybody.
ōIÆm just very pleased with the success that æAlpocalypseÆ has had. I was not expecting two Grammy nominations, and the critical response has been extremely positive. So IÆm certainly happy with the way things are going.ö
Another recent surprise: An online fan petition drive encourages the National Football League to sign Yankovic as the halftime act for Super Bowl XLVII next February in New Orleans.
ōI certainly couldnÆt turn that down, but IÆm not going to hold my breath,ö Yankovic says with a laugh. ōIÆm extremely flattered by the attention and the fact fans want to make it happen. I donÆt think in reality it ever will, but IÆm loving the fact that fans are making such an effort to make it happen.ö
Although not a particularly ardent football fan Ś ōIÆm sure the NFL would love to hear that!ö Ś Yankovic says he has allowed the odd image of what heÆd do with the slot ōto float through my mind.ö But mostly he says, ōI try not to think about it.
ōIf I ever thought it would happen for real I would immediately have a diarrhea attack. ItÆd be the scariest thing IÆd ever do in my life. I canÆt imagine anything more terrifying.ö
Fortunately Yankovic has plenty of other endeavors to keep himself distracted during the interim. While heÆs still touring to support ōAlpocalypse,ö heÆs also joined the Nerdist Channel on YouTube for a 10-episode run of ōFace To Face,ö a show that features the kind of faux celebrity interviews that have been favorites at his concerts.
ōI love doing these interviews,ö Yankovic says. ōItÆs fun for me, and the fans enjoy them. It gives me more material I can use in the live concert, too.ö But unlike his parody songs, which Yankovic always does with the blessing of the original artists, ōwhen I do these interviews IÆm hoping for their forgiveness.ö
ōIÆve been doing this since æ84, and IÆve never received a single complaint from a celebrity, even the few times IÆve gone over the edge, in my estimation Ś like I went pretty hard on Kevin Federline, æcause he was such a target at the time. I feel kind of bad about that in retrospect. But for the most part, everybodyÆs enjoyed the joke.ö
But ōFace To Faceö has ōderailedö YankovicÆs work on his follow-up to ōAlpocalypse.öōI had sessions set up for next month and had to put those on hold æcause IÆve not had time to write any new material,ö he explains. ōBut I have some ideas, so the idea is at some point this year I will be back in the studio, recording the first material for a new album.ö
Meanwhile, Yankovic Ś who has a 9-year-old daughter, Nina, with wife Suzanne Ś has turned in his second childrenÆs book, the follow-up to his 2011 New York Times best-seller ōWhen I Grow Up,ö to his editor for a fall 2013 publication. HeÆs being circumspect about the details of the plot but confirms it features Billy, the protagonist from ōWhen I Grow Up.ö
ōItÆs another book of BillyÆs adventures in the classroom,ö Yankovic says. ōIt looks like possibly the beginning of a new franchise, although I donÆt know if it will get quite as darkö as ōThe Hunger Games.ö
The cloud to all this silver lining Ś and itÆs a slight one, Yankovic says Ś is a $5 million lawsuit against his record company, Sony Music Entertainment, over unpaid digital royalties owed from his share of settlements against peer-to-peer sites such as Napster and Kazaa. But itÆs not causing him to lose any sleep or any creative focus for his various projects.
ōIÆm not mad at Sony,ö Yankovic says. ōIÆd like to think theyÆre not mad at me. ItÆs just business; my attorneys and their attorneys have a fundamental disagreement about how much money IÆm owed, so they have to work it out in court.
ōProbably the less I say about this, the happier my manager and lawyer will be. If IÆm going to be needed (to testify), they will let me know. In the meantime, IÆll just do what I do.ö
Weird Al Yankovic performs at 8 p.m. May 5 at the Fox Theatre, 2211 Woodward Ave., Detroit. Tickets are $19-$49. Call 313-471-6611 or visit www.olympiaentertainment.com.

To examine hematologic changes from birth to 5 years of age and establish hematologic reference values for infants and children with sickle cell disease.
Research Design:
Prospective natural history study.
Nineteen pediatric sickle cell centers across the United States.
Six hundred ninety-four infants with sickle cell disease (sickle cell anemia, sickle cell–hemoglobin C disease, and sickle–β-thalassemia) who were enrolled in the Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease at younger than 6 months of age. Median follow-up time through 5 years of age was 4.1 years.
Measurements and Results:
We present longitudinal analyses of total hemoglobin concentration, percent fetal hemoglobin values, mean corpuscular volumes, total bilirubin concentration, and red blood cell (RBC), "pocked" RBC, white blood cell, platelet, and reticulocyte counts. Anemia was apparent by 10 weeks of life in infants with sickle cell anemia (SS infants). This anemia was associated with a rising reticulocyte count consistent with a hemolytic process. The reticulocyte count of SS infants increased steadily, exceeding 12% at 5 years of age. The fetal hemoglobin concentration of SS infants declined more slowly than that of infants with sickle cell hemoglobin C disease (SC infants). Pocked RBC counts rose sharply after 6 months of age, and by 1 year, 28% of SS infants had abnormal counts, above 3.5%, indicating poor splenic function. At 3 years of age, 78% of SS patients and 32% of SC patients had abnormal pocked RBC counts. The SS patients with concurrent α-thalassemia had, after 6 months of age and throughout early childhood, a slightly higher mean total hemoglobin concentration and lower mean pocked RBC and reticulocyte counts than SS patients without α-thalassemia. The hematologic profile of SC infants more closely resembled that of normal black infants, but there was mild anemia (10.5 g/dL) and slightly elevated mean values for reticulocytes (3%) and fetal hemoglobin (3%) during early childhood.(Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med. 1994;148:796-804)

View Full Version :
I'm never playing Fifa again
This game is so much better. If anyone is thinking about buying it go ahead. Sucks that its released so much later in the US.
I agree, and I'm sure many others around here feel the same, but don't make a new threat about it. I'm mean you have 400 post, you should now when to make a new threat or not.
Manwell Pablo
The games a massive dissapointment if you ask me, so many faults. I could literally go on all day.
Dive button, no pointless. Refs seem to be overly harsh on mistimed slide tackles. Controls seems less responsive than the last one, they seem to have taken another backwards step in regards to licensing. Again.
These are just slight annoyances compared to the major fault with the game, online the games nothing short of a joke compared to the last installment, which itself was pretty poor. Right from finding game through to not being able to play extra time.
I can never find a game, ever, this is due to the new menu system, most people worse/as good as me wont play me for fear of losing all I get is Top Div 6500 + players. Now I'm not bad at the game but I'm not that good. In game I'm lost as to how it's got so bad. Fair enough Pro 6 wasn't great on the net but it was in a different league to this one, there are times when playing that I can't physically see which why an oppenent intends to go because the lag is changing his body stance and direction to quickly for me to keep up with, I frequently completley miss headers because the player has gone up to late, due to lag. At it's worse the whole of my defense just stand still while the other players just wallses through and scores. The camera angle sometimes shoots up to the other end of the pitch, and as I say. No Extra time? Why?
I could stomach all this if Konami had released a patch to at least sort half of it out but they've not done anything and seem unlikely to now.
ALSO (sorry for going on) as I'm sure most of you are aware the achievements are unclear and at worst, just plain bugged, I've scored two perfectly good free kicks on the net, no achievement, I've read on here what you have to do but thats not the point, it's an achievement for scoreing a FK on Xbox Live, it should unlock when you score a free kick on Xbox Live.:(
I've never been a big fan of FIFA and have been a Pro Evo player since the orginal came out for the PS but I will think very very carefully before buying the next edition of this game.
Yeah the online its sad, really, i mean i give it another try (well my brother actually) and even with all that lag, where you cant play really he managed to do the fucking hat trick (well he scored 5 goals with the same guy), but the fag quit after the 8-2... really this is annoying. How can they add achievements if the online its so fucked up you cant really play it... i mean in less than a week i already have 400 points but im not sure i will get the 1000 because of this.
The game overall its really good, but the major appeal to me was the online, i didnt find the past PES laggy, yeah there were some bad connections, but even when that happen you could play it, even if the match lasted forever because of this... Im really dissapointed with this matter, but the game itself its awesome.
Pro Evo is so much better, although i agree the online is poor the game itself is so much better, i have over 50 hours of playtime in exhibition matches which are stupidly invalid games, nevermind.
Yeah i kind of jump the gun on this one. Online is horrible. unplayable. the achievements are so boring. play 500 games. there so pointless and boring. i think im going back to fifa bc of the online. Pro does hve a smoother feel to it.
Well i dont care if FIFA is better online or has easier achievements... I played Pro Evo always since ISS times and 1 kind of bad game wont change me to FIFA.
This game is so much better offline, and i have tried FIFA08 demo.
^^lol at the above post "fifa has easier achievements"
the achivements on fifa are to hard pros achivements are easy and there is only a few of them compared to fifa. the only thing i dont like about pro is trying to find a game online its so hard it always comes up with some excuse saying something like "this persons bar is to full you are unable to join" blah blah blah. hopefully they sort out the online for next year.
...Pro Evo 2008 online is horrible this year. Lag, "unable to match opponent" etc, not good. Pro Evo 6 was far better.
pro evo is a ten times better game and the only problem is the online lag but other than that it great to play
Manwell Pablo
Well i dont care if FIFA is better online or has easier achievements... I played Pro Evo always since ISS times and 1 kind of bad game wont change me to FIFA.
This game is so much better offline, and i have tried FIFA08 demo.
I don't know about FIFA, I've not really played it, Pro is still a good game offline but it's failing to evolve enough for me, a few new editions each year aren't enough the game is essentially the same as last year. If it weren't for the fact I'd maxed out Pro Evo 6 ach's I'd be wondering why I bothred with 2008 at all.
Ironically the problems with 2008 online give Konami something to work on improving and will probabley make the next one worth buying, by fixing a problem that shouldn't of been there in the first place, or at least fixed with a patch.:(

Radomski could have domino effect in MLB steroid era
The guy who might, just might, force Major League Baseball to break into a full sweat -- and break out the asterisks -- is a 37-year-old nobody, a career jockstrap picker-upper, a glorified gofer who used to work for tips in the Shea Stadium visitors clubhouse. He wasn't the lowest person on the New York Mets' organizational food chain, but he was close.
Kirk Radomski is his name. He was a clubbie, and clubbies are supposed to shine up your cleats, fetch you the latest issue of Maxim and make ...

Distributional impacts of carbon pricing: A general equilibrium approach with micro-data for households
Many policies to limit greenhouse gas emissions have at their core efforts to put a price on carbon emissions. Carbon pricing impacts households both by raising the cost of carbon intensive products and by changing factor prices. A complete analysis requires taking both effects into account. The impact of carbon pricing is determined by heterogeneity in household spending patterns across income groups as well as heterogeneity in factor income patterns across income groups. It is also affected by precise formulation of the policy (how is the revenue from carbon pricing distributed) as well as the treatment of other government policies (e.g. the treatment of transfer payments). What is often neglected in analyses of policy is the heterogeneity of impacts across households even within income or regional groups. In this paper, we incorporate 15,588 households from the U.S. Consumer and Expenditure Survey data as individual agents in a comparative-static general equilibrium framework. These households are represented within the MIT USREP model, a detailed general equilibrium model of the U.S. economy. In particular, we categorize households by full household income (factor income as well as transfer income) and apply various measures of lifetime income to distinguish households that are temporarily low-income (e.g., retired households drawing down their financial assets) from permanently low-income households. We also provide detailed within-group distributional measures of burden impacts from various policy scenarios.

First of all, I'm not sure, what version of WP I'm on.
Just a user and the freaking website doesn't give it away easily - apparently it s not from apple.
BUT, here is my problem. After installing and activating the plugin I CAN NOT set anything. It simply does not display a Setting Link or anything. Basically the plugin is activated and does nothing.
This happens with another google + importer as well. It is very very frustrating!
do you have any ideas?

I have skinny skinny feet and these things are super snug. The laces are pointless because there's a band that goes over the top of your foot that tightens the shoe. Also, get a half size up, I has to send mine back and get a bigger size. It wasnt even close to normal size for me. ... read more
First, the shoe is a great combination of cushion and response. The transition is seamless between foot plant and toe-off. Second, the upper is very comfortable. While the forefoot is a little narrow for me there are no friction points because the material works with the foot and is very forgiving. Great shoe, wish Adidas had a trail version. ... read more
First, I love these shoes! Best basketball shoes that I have ever played in. Boost is absolutely amazing. I was fortunate enough to get the Primeknit All-Star and they are so comfortable. Yes they run a half-size too large. I have PTTD, and use insoles and a brace. I can play a full session in these and not hobble around the day after. Amazing. One complaint is the quality. I play hard in these indoor and they are showing wear. The soft part around the X strap is pilling. The X strap is coming unglued from the frame. And the knit at the base of the tongue on both shoes are shredding apart and coming undone. Nothing that impacts the performance of the shoe, but they could have done a better job on their premiere shoe. That being said, I will never buy the other brand again. So much shoe and tech for an amazing price, great job! ... read more
Awesome training and running shoe. It looks great, comfortable as can be, like walking on air. BUT, taking off a star because the sizing is whacked! Usually wear a size 12, ordered up 1/2 sz to 12.5 and though they fit, barely any wiggle room. Size 13 would probably be perfect. I'd keep that in mind if ordering. ... read more
This shoe is perfect for me. I hope Adidas continues to make this shoe without changing much. The last shoe I used was a different brand and was way too cushy and soft and actually ended up causing foot and ankle pain. I switched to the Supernova Glide Boost 8 based on a recommendation and couldn't be happier. I've been running with this shoe for a couple months now. The shoe is supportive, comfortable, and still manages to be responsive. The Boost material is phenomenal. I highly recommend this shoe. ... read more
i still remember the first time to try the boost, already know this new technique will bring adidas more and more great shoes. That feeling is amazing! So this is my second boost shoes. I can't afford an ultra boost which also not fitted to my feet. But I find this one even with discount. I just check yesterday at footlocker, they still sell this shoes at regular price. Haha what a great shoes! ... read more
Very nice and comfortable short with climachill fabric material. a clarification: there is no inner fitted shorts inside and also no aluminum dots (thankfully). There is no drawcord, so after reading the reviews I went a size down and it was better. I'm a medium (32" waist) and I got a small and they fit well. I actually like the no-drawcord, easy to put on and take off! ... read more
These are a great pair of shorts and I'm very happy with this unique colour, so much so I even purchased the matching Clima chill shirt. The fit and feel are great for working out or daily wear. Another quality Adidas product at a sensible price. ... read more
Oh Adidas designers! I know from previous models to buy medium size even though I'm a large or x large in almost all other shorts including relaxed sizing. However add a phone to my right pocket and a few keys to my left pocket without a drawstring they hang way too low. What were you guys thinking? Would love a response ! Please go back to the original model. ... read more

A Voice from Godless America
Last June, NPR broadcast an excerpt from Julia Sweeney's (Spokane native, SNL's androgynous "Pat") one-woman play Letting Go of God about how her Catholic faith started to slip when she joined a bible study group and started actually reading the Bible. The audio held me captive in my garage for the better part of an hour when it aired. If you have 30 minutes to spare this week, you should give it a listen (courtesy of OneGoodMove.com).

I discovered that my WordPress sends wrong Last-Modified (and consequently also wrong Etag) headers in the response for comment RSS feeds (request URL: http://site.tld/blog/?feed=comments-rss2). The Last-Modifed time WP returns is the last-modified time of the posts instead of that of the comments. As a consequence new comments appear only after a new post in RSS readers that use Last-Modified or Etag in the requests. This is very annoying.
I have looked at the WP code (wp-includes/classes.php line 1595) and found that WP uses the time of the last comments for the Last-Modified timestamp only if 'withcomments=1' is present in the URL or if 'withoutcomments' is not set and one of the parameters 'name', 'page_id', 'pagename', 'attachement', or 'attachement_id' is present at the same time. If that is not the case, the time of the last post is used for the Last-Modifed header.
When I change the feed URL to http://site.tld/blog/?feed=comments-rss2&withcomments=1 the correct Last-Modified date is returned. To me this looks like a bug. Either the if statement in wp-includes/classes.php at line 1595 is wrong or the parameter 'withcomments=1' is missing in the RSS feed URL.
Can you confirm this bug, or correct me if I am wrong?
PS: I'm referring to WordPress 2.8.4.

Lovely wheat for your autumn projects!
Click on the image for the full size.
Would like to know how to get the wheat transfer pattern displayed on your website.
Simply right click and save the image to your computer. After printing, trace the image directly on to fabric or use a pencil specifically for iron on transfers and trace the image on the paper before ironing to fabric. I believe Aunt Martha sells the pencils or they can be purchased in most fabric stores.
Thank you very much for this lovely free pattern. I am sharing it with others in our stitchery guild.
You are most welcome! It is indeed a lovely pattern.

James Carter (musician)
|James Carter
James Carter, Bad Ischl 2006
|Background information
|January 3, 1969
|Detroit, Michigan, U.S.
|Bass clarinet
Half Note
|Associated acts
James Carter (born January 3, 1969) is an American jazz musician. He is the cousin of Jazz Violinist Regina Carter.
Carter was born in Detroit, Michigan, and learned to play under the tutelage of Donald Washington, becoming a member of his youth jazz ensemble Bird-Trane-Sco-NOW!! As a young man, Carter attended Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, becoming the youngest faculty member at the camp. He first toured Europe (Scandinavia) with the International Jazz Band in 1985 at the age of 16.
On May 31, 1988, at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), Carter was a last-minute addition for guest artist Lester Bowie, which turned into an invitation to play with his new quintet (forerunner of his New York Organ Ensemble) in New York that following November at the now defunct Carlos 1 jazz club. This was pivotal in Carter's career, putting him in musical contact with the world, and he moved to New York two years later. He has been prominent as a performer and recording artist on the jazz scene since the late 1980s, playing saxophones, flute, and clarinets.
On his album Chasin' the Gypsy (2000), he recorded with his cousin Regina Carter, a jazz violinist.
Carter has won Down Beat magazine's Critics and Readers Choice award for baritone saxophone several years in a row. He has performed, toured and played on albums with Lester Bowie, Julius Hemphill, Frank Lowe & the Saxemble, Kathleen Battle, the World Saxophone Quartet, Cyrus Chestnut, Wynton Marsalis, Dee Dee Bridgewater and the Mingus Big Band.[1]
Carter is an authority on vintage horns, and he owns an extensive collection of them,[2] including one formerly played by Don Byas.[3]

You can mix and match whatever you like, except the Fez and the Stetson. Never wear the Fez and the Stetson at the same time, the colours clash horribly.

Forsee Vineyards
We raised cattle for 40 years. What would go with steak? A burgeoning industry was right under our noses and we began winemaking, the first and thus oldest winery in Montgomery County. Visits to wineries in Illinois in 2000, helped education, vineyard managers and winemakers giving valuable time and information. We refreshed old memories of chemistry, and planted grapes. Our children, friends and neighbors joined us in picking by hand, and are still with us since 2003. February 2, 2008, we opened. The winery was packed with those feisty individuals who came by the previous summers to see the building going up, only to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into the winery to taste the wines and give us an opinion. We listened. Now visitors walk the vineyards to compare the grapes with the wine in their glass. Wine tastings are offered without charge. We are open year-round Friday through Sunday. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available for over 200. Today, we produce 5000 gallons of wine from grapes, and we encourage wine education from both sides of the tasting room table. Come join us!

How can I import 3D models from 3D modelling software like MAYA into OpenGL especially for PC rather than for Iphone development ?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Maybe this surprises you, but OpenGL has no such thing qualifying as "models". What OpenGL does is, it accepts a bunch of data and it is upon you to make OpenGL access this data so that the operations it performs on that data will result in a nice image on the screen.
So after that introduction, let's say you got a model, like a cube. A cube consists of 6 faces with 4 corners each. While each corner positions is shared by 3 faces each, the face direction, the so called Normal, is very different on that corner depending which face you're looking at. Position, Normal and a few other attributes form what is known as a vertex. Thus for a cube we have 6 * 4 = 24 vertices (capital position, lower normal)
And so on, I hope you get the idea. Each line forms a vertex vector. The format of this vector is arbitraty. You can place those attributes (Position, Normal, etc.) in one common, interleaved array, or you use multiple arrays for each attribute in its own array. Interleaved arrays oftenly are more efficient though.
Together with the list of vertices you also have a list of faces, i.e. tuple of vertex indices, which for a face, so in the case of a cube those tuples, designating quadrilaterals would be
Loading a model means, you write some program that reads the data from a model file format (preferrably a documented one, or one you came up with yourself and wrote an exporter for your modelling program for). The read data is then placed into memory in such a way as outlined above so that OpenGL can make use of it.
You then supply this data to OpenGL. There are two options: You keep the data in your program's process address space (Client Side Vertex Arrays), or you upload the data into a OpenGL buffer object (Vertex Buffer Object).
Then you tell OpenGL to fetch its geometry data.
In the case of Client Side Vertex Arrays this is done in the following way
It is upon you to either implement the model loader yourself, or use some third party library for this task.
Maya can export to various formats. Nowadays, mainly FBX is used because it's supported by many art packages.
If you're writing an application in c++, there's a FBX Api you can use to read fbx files: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=7478532
I think XNA uses this sdk in the background in it's content pipeline. (If you're familiar with xna)
There is also a Python library which can be handy to extract just the data you need from the fbx file: http://download.autodesk.com/us/fbx/20112/FBX_SDK_HELP/files/WS73099cc142f48755-751de9951262947c01c-6dc7.htm
You could also write your own export script in Maya using python, but be aware that this is not a straightforward task.
I'm sure if you google a bit, you'll find importers for other formats like

Laurentian Labour Day
Uncle Jack leased this piece of crown land on Lac des Trois Montagnes for 99 years in 1958. He built the cottage on it bringing in all the supplies by boat as the road was only put through in 1981. This Laurentian summer place has hosted family and friends over 50 years. For Labour Day, Cousin Diane and her husband, Bill, brought Uncle Jack up from Ottawa. Her sister, Debbie, had spent the week there and cousin Neill and Shirley came from Montreal to visit for 2 days. We celebrated Debbie's 50th birthday as well as a half century of summer lake fun. Family members were remembered.

Winter is over when the pipes and pagentry of the St. Patrick's Day parade hits St. Catherine Street and heads east. This tradition is over 150 years old and draws more people each year than any other festivity! This year saw over a quarter of a million folks turn out in snow and cold to cheer and imbibe and laugh and chat as the colourful two-hour spectacle passed before them. Erin go braugh!

I just read the Linux scp command issue question and it reminded me that I regularily forget to specify the colon in the host part of a scp command, and thus copying a file locally instead of copying to a remote host, e.g. I do
scp foo host
instead of
scp foo host:
But I never use scp to copy a file locally. So I wonder if there is a way to make scp fail if both (the source and destination) arguments refer to local files.

Floating Hanger
This simple and effective hanger is the most economical way to display yourprints.
The hanger floats your print 1/2" off the wall and has a keyhole in the top for secure hanging.
The backing board offers additional support to the metal print. It varies in size with the size of the print, but will always be kept far enough from the edges so as not to be visible in any way.
European Frame
For a very contemporary look, our European Frame adds a distinctive finished look to your print. The frame is 3.3cm deep and comes in either black, white and silver anodized aluminium.
The metal print sits flush on top of the frame so is visible only from the sides and not when viewed from the front.
The adjustable wire hanging system on the back makes it ready to hang.
Art Box FrameFor the ultimate modern look and edge protection for your metal print
our Art Box Frame makes for a stunning presentation.
The metal image sits inside a fine edge which surrounds the frame, not quite touching its edges. The frame is approximately 3cm deep and comes in black, white and silver anodized aluminium.
The adjustable wire hanging system on the back makes it ready to hang.
Desk Top Curve
The desk top curve allows your print to be freestanding.
The print is slightly curved along the longest edge so that it sits on any table top or ledge.
The aluminium easel with extra strong double sided tape is for self mounting to the back of either horizontal or vertical prints.
Square or rounded corners are available on the print and available for up to 11x14" metal prints.
Square or Rounded Corners
Metal prints come with square corners as standard. The corners can be sharp so take care if putting your metal prints in areas where they might be knocked.
Rounded corners are also available but only with prints with or without a floating hanger. Rounded corners are not suitable with Frames.
Double PrintBy placing a larger metal print behind your feature image, a double print adds an extra dimension and distinctive finished look. The two prints are separated by black backing board.
Be as creative as you want with the larger print that usually forms a 2 inch border around your showpiece. Let us create a soft blurred effect from your feature image for the larger back print at no extra charge.
The Floating Hanger behind the larger print suits this display option perfectly.
BordersBy choosing a print size but making your actual image size smaller you can create a bordered look around your metal print.
Choose the Ultra Gloss or Matt finish for a white border effect or the Brushed Aluminium Gloss or Matt for a silver aluminium look.
3M Picture Hanging StripsPicture Hanging Strips are easy to apply, easy to remove and leave no nail holes.
We recommend 4-6 strips when you wish to hang a printed metal sheet as close to the wall as possible
Picture Hanging Strips come in 2 parts with one part sticking to the back of your metal print and the other to your wall. You then simply snap the velcro on the metal to the matching part on the wall.
They hold firmly up to 5.4kg and ensure a clean removal.

Coinstack - a monument to bus fare
Coinstack by Renn & Thacker at Hockley Interchange.
The design for "Coinstack" was inspired, in part, by the proximity of the Birmingham Mint and by a desire to celebrate the humble but essential handful of coins which make up one's 'bus fare'.

Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I used cat ears until they were stolen, along with my helmet. I really liked them. I found that they reduced the amount of stress that persistent noise can cause, and I felt safer because I was able to hear everything a lot more clearly. No, not paid by the company, just honest.
There are several things you could try.
A simple headband over your ears would be an easy an cheap solution.
In case you don't want anything to fully cover your ears you can buy ear plugs designed specifically for this purpose.
Google: blocking wind ears cycling
And you get plenty of options.
www.cat-ears.com for example.
Of course. Good in ear monitors work also on case you want to listen music while riding.

From process to pattern: how fluctuating predation risk impacts the stress axis of snowshoe hares during the 10-year cycle

Predation is a central organizing process affecting populations and communities. Traditionally, ecologists have focused on the direct effects of predation—the killing of prey. However, predators also have significant sublethal effects on prey populations. We investigated how fluctuating predation risk affected the stress physiology of a cyclic population of snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) in the Yukon, finding that they are extremely sensitive to the fluctuating risk of predation. In years of high predator numbers, hares had greater plasma cortisol levels at capture, greater fecal cortisol metabolite levels, a greater plasma cortisol response to a hormone challenge, a greater ability to mobilize energy and poorer body condition. These indices of stress had the same pattern within years, during the winter and over the breeding season when the hare:lynx ratio was lowest and the food availability the worst. Previously we have shown that predator-induced maternal stress lowers reproduction and compromises offspring's stress axis. We propose that predator-induced changes in hare stress physiology affect their demography through negative impacts on reproduction and that the low phase of cyclic populations may be the result of predator-induced maternal stress reducing the fitness of progeny. The hare population cycle has far reaching ramifications on predators, alternate prey, and vegetation. Thus, predation is the predominant organizing process for much of the North American boreal forest community, with its indirect signature—stress in hares—producing a pattern of hormonal changes that provides a sensitive reflection of fluctuating predator pressure that may have long-term demographic consequences.

Most of the people in the perfume shop are sales people. They will guide you to the perfumes they like to sell to you, the so called "new ones", but I'm afraid they will not be able to help you.

If you want style: Oud - Rose by Micallef
I also like Waterman by Le parfumeur à l'Ancienne. It sais affrodisiac ;)

I tried noir noir from Tom ford, was too heavy on me. I found 100. Parfum Chic from Le Parfumeur à lancienne. I ordered the free smelling blotters and bought a bottle. It is very close to the Black...
I tried this already, but doesn't blend very well with my skin.

Otago have had a late morning stumble against Canterbury in
their Plunket Shield match in Dunedin to be in a spot of
trouble at lunch.
Chasing the Wizards' first innings total of 254, the home
side have lost four wickets in the morning session to go to
the break at 89 for 4.
Otago resumed at 7 without loss and openers Hamish Rutherford
and Aaron Redmond progressed smoothly early on until Redmond
was caught off the bowling of William Lonsdale for 15.
Seamer Ben McCord then struck twice to pick up Rutherford for
46 and Neil Broom for a duck.
Tim Johnston chipped in with the wicket of Michael Bracewell
for 11 to put his side into a strong position.
Captain Derek De Boorder and Darren Broom will resume for
Otago after the break.
