Old Oak II by mwolskiWatch

really good !
im such a fan of your watercolors.. the negative space in this piece is striking and bold.
I really like how you placed the oak within the frame. It almsot looks like its roots are pulling up the earth and then its leaves fill the sky. Very nice work; love the texture too.
I'm listening to The Old Oak by Merciful Fate, and this just fits! Thank you
Excelente trabajo!!!Felicitaciones...Nice Work!!!

It has such character!
Beatiful !!!

To the Editor.—
Dr Gurewich's article in the October Archives (137:1362-1363, 1977) discussed the value of the detection of thrombosis stimulating the various products of the fibrinogen-thrombin interaction. Since the editorial is entitled "Laboratory Diagnosis of Thrombosis," the contribution of platelets cannot be ignored.When platelets undergo the release reaction in vitro, they release, among other substances, β-thromboglobulin (βTG) and platelet factor 4 (PF4), which neutralizes heparin. These proteins come uniquely from platelets. How these substances are liberated in vivo is not known, but their presence in the plasma clearly indicates that platelets have undergone the release reaction or have been otherwise "activated." Just as the products of clotting can be generated in clinical conditions, so it also is with platelets. Platelets are involved regularly in diffuse intravascular coagulation, in thrombosis, and usually in infection. The products of platelet activation might be expected in the plasma.A new radioimmunological assay

Logging in and getting oriented
Logging in and getting oriented
Let's take a brief look at some of the general features that are common to most Moodle installations. When you first go to a Moodle site and you haven't logged in, you are generally presented with some basic information about the site, usually information about the university, maybe a listing of the courses. Many institutions will publish even some public calendar information that you're able to see. But you are generally limited in what you can access, until you log in. To log in, simply look for the Login link. In this case, it's in the upper right-hand corner.
This is a small link that says Login. Click that one time and you're taken to a generic login page. Now you can enter in your username and password, or you're able to Login as a guest on many systems, if it's allowed by the system administrator. In this case, we will go ahead and log in as our user account that we created for ourselves. So I will select the Username and type in Chris, and then for the Password I will type in 12345. I hit the Login link and now when the Moodle page reloads, we are presented with customized information that's relevant just to us.
Here we can see that we are a member of the Coral Reef Ecology course, and it even shows who the teacher is. That general description that we typed in earlier when we set up the course appears right here, so we know information about what this course is. One of the great new features of the Moodle 2 system is the ability to dock your blocks. Now on the left and right-hand column, you'll see a series of blocks that contain most of the major functions of Moodle. You have got a Navigation block, and My courses block, and My settings block.
In the upper right-hand corner, if you move your mouse over top of the icons that are there, you'll see a tooltip this that says, "Move this to the dock." It's a new feature of Moodle 2. Simply click that link and a new feature appears on the left-hand side. It's called the dock. And what happens is your blocks are able to be minimized out of the way and moved over here. As you move your mouse over top of the dock icon name, you're able to see all of the contents of that block right there, and you're able to access it without it cluttering up your screen.
So let's go ahead and dock all three of the blocks from the left-hand column, and those all appear over here on the left-hand side. This leaves the main portion of our screen for us to focus on the primary content that we are interested in. Usually this is our course. Now if you click on a dock icon for a block over on the right-hand side, those items also go into the one single dock that's usually located over on the left-hand side. Again, I can hover my mouse over top of Calendar, move my mouse over top of the day, and I can see that there are no events for today.
To move an item back out of your dock and back into the column where it was, you can simply move your mouse over top of the icon up here and click the Undock this item. The block then returns right back to the location where it was before. Now if you want to reset all of the blocks back to their original location, if you go down to the lower left-hand corner, down at the bottom of the dock there's a small icon that you can hit. It says Undock all. Click on that and your screen returns to normal.
So if you choose to use the dock or not, it's up to you, and that's how you do it. You just use those little minimize icons. Another great feature of Moodle that is available to you is this Online users section, and many Moodle installations use this, and what does is it shows you over the course of some set period of time limit, in this case 5 minutes, who else has been logged in. So it's a good chance that these people are still logged in. So you can click on the person's name. In this case I will go ahead and click on Admin, and there's not very many details here available to me on about the admin user. But what it does do is it opens up and it shows me this other feature of the navigation and that is the breadcrumbs up here at the top.
The breadcrumbs always show in this little bar right here, and they show you the path as to where you're currently at. So right now we are looking at a particular user's profile with no information. So to get back to the homepage, I can simply come up and I can click on the Home breadcrumb. That takes me right back to the main page. Now if I click on my name in the Online users section, I can see a more detailed view of the information related to this user. In the next movie, we will go in and we will customize this page.

This Days Inn is your typical low-budget airport motel. Unlike others, we found our room clean and pleasant. The staff will certainly win no awards for friendliness, but we had no problems. The airport shuttle worked fine for us and that was a major plus. The major plus: location. The major minus: location. It is close to the airport and OK for a night stayover, but the location is "semi-industrial" but more to the point-- on a major highway-- NW 36th St. Lots of truck traffic and noise. Our room, on the side of the building, did NOT have double hung windows and the noise was considerable. The air traffic was really no trouble, but the road traffic-- oh boy. The secondary problem for us, without a car, we had to walk to restaurants, and nothing much beyond McDonalds and Subway close and others required a longer walk along 36th St. which is not an easy walk.

(Re: Letter to the editor, April 12, "Get rid of Pitts.")
My husband and I would be very upset if you do, indeed, remove Leonard Pitts column from your newspaper.
Over the years, we have been challenged, outraged, and laughed out loud in response to his writings. We have followed him in newspapers across the country from Oklahoma City to Fort Lauderdale, to be pleasantly surprised to find him in the Globe-News.
Leonard is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. He writes on topics such as his own Christianity, disease and death, family values, the war, politics, and racial inequality and bigotry. Most of the time I agree with him, or at least gain insight into another way of thinking.
It is refreshing to read "the exact opposite opinion of the vast majority of the Panhandle population." His column is a breath of fresh air.

Portage is the official package management and distribution system for Gentoo. It essentially functions as the heart of Gentoo-based operating systems. Portage includes many commands for repository and package management, the primary of which is the emerge command.
This article describes Portage from a user's perspective. Those looking to contribute to Portage development should visit the Portage project page (also seen as the top link in the InfoBox to the left).
- 1 Installation
- 2 Configuration
- 3 Usage
- 4 See also
All Gentoo installations come with Portage. Like all data, there is a possibility Portage can become corrupted or even uninstalled, which is very bad. If this is the case there are ways Portage can be recovered, however Portage re-installation can be quite the hassle. It becomes a work of manual labor: installing a package manager without a package manager.
Binary package
Have a friend or a build server build a Portage binary package, then boot a recovery disk and transfer the binary package to the broken machine. This could be done using the
buildpkg Portage feature on a healthy machine or by using the quickpkg command (see the binary package guide). Portage will be needed in to order to install the binary package, however it is possible to run something off a virtual machine:
- Boot up a LiveDVD/CD that has Portage included (Gentoo LiveDVDs or SystemRescueCD should contain Portage). Remove the old or broken Portage and reinstall install Portage to the mounted root filesystem (potentially the fastest and easiest option in the case of a fast internet connection and available CDs/DVDs). For example, if the root file system with broken Portage was mounted at /mnt/gentoo the following commands could be used from a live environment.
- Change all of Portage's relevant environment variables to be set to the Portage directory of the mounted root filesystem. If the broken Portage root directory is mounted at /mnt/gentoo, the command would look like this:
root #
DISTDIR="/mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/mnt/gentoo/" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/mnt/gentoo/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/mnt/gentoo/usr/portage"
- Run the emerge command in order to remove any traces of the old broken Portage package:
root #
emerge --ask --unmerge sys-apps/portage
- Sync the Portage Tree in case the system is a bit behind on the current Portage tree:
root #
emerge --sync
- Install the new version of Portage:
root #
emerge --ask --update --newuse sys-apps/portage
- Change all of Portage's relevant environment variables to be set to the Portage directory of the mounted root filesystem. If the broken Portage root directory is mounted at /mnt/gentoo, the command would look like this:
Manually download a copy of a recent Portage release tarball, extract it, and manually install it:
user $
wget https://github.com/gentoo/portage/archive/v2.2.22.tar.gz -O portage-2.2.22.tar.gz
user $
tar --extract --gz --verbose --file portage-2.2.22.tar.gz
user $
cd portage-2.2.22
Install via setup.py:
root #
python setup.py install
If they do not exist, add the following lines into the following files:
root #
echo "portage:x:250:250:portage:/var/tmp/portage:/bin/false" >> /etc/passwd
root #
echo "portage::250:portage" >> /etc/group
Create the /usr/portage directory if it does not exist:
root #
mkdir /usr/portage
In order for Gentoo to stay up to date, Portage must stay up to date. If the following message is visible after an emerge --sync, it is important to do what the text says before updating other packages.
* An update to portage is available. It is _highly_ recommended * that you update portage now, before any other packages are updated. * To update portage, run 'emerge --oneshot portage' now.
root #
emerge --ask --oneshot sys-apps/portage
This will tell Portage to exclusively update itself. After Portage has been updated, users can then update other packages.
There are many files used to configure Portage.
See /etc/portage configuration files for an exhaustive list of configuration files.
Environment variables
Portage pays attention to some environment variables:
This page is a work in progress by maffblaster (talk | contribs). Treat its contents with caution.
In addition to the official repository (colloquially known as the "Portage Tree" because of its traditional placement in /usr/portage/), there are additional repositories which in Gentoo called overlays.
It is possible to search through the ebuilds available in the overlays on http://overlays.gentoo.org/ by using the eix tool.
GUI front-ends
There are a few GUI interfaces that exist for Portage, although some of them have become unmaintained.
|A GUI frontend for the Portage package management system.
|No (2014)
|Graphical Portage frontend based on KDE4/Qt4.
|No (2010)
|A GTK+-based frontend to Portage.
See the dispatch-conf article.
See the ebuild article.
See the egencache article for additional information.
See Project:Portage/Sync#Operation and man 1 emaint.
emerge is the command-line interface to Portage and is how most users will interact with Portage. The emerge command has many possible options. For a complete list of all options see its man page:
user $
man emerge
Below is an exemplary invocation of emerge. The options (
-atv) are shortcuts for
--tree and
--verbose. They trigger emerge to ask before proceeding, display the dependency tree of packages to be installed, and to be verbose with its output. While in the context of Portage, the term "package" can also be referred to as an "atom." Do not be confused if you see the term "atom" used instead of the term "package."
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild U ] category/package-3.0-r2 [2.0] USE="enabled -disabled toggled* new% (-unavailable)" MAKE_OPTIONS="-disabled" 777 kB [ebuild UD ] category/package-2.0 [3.0] 777 kB [ebuild R ] category/package-1.0 777 kB [ebuild N ] category/package-0.5 777 kB
Total: 4 packages (1 new, 1 reinstall, 1 upgrade, 1 downgrade), Size of downloads: 3108 kBWould you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]
Common invocations
Search for packages with proxy in their names:
user $
emerge --search proxy
Search for packages with proxy in their names or description:
user $
emerge --searchdesc proxy
Install the net-proxy/tinyproxy package with
--ask and
--verbose options for precaution:
root #
emerge --ask --verbose net-proxy/tinyproxy
Remove the net-proxy/tinyproxy package using the dependency sensitive
--depclean option instead of
--unmerge which may remove important packages:
root #
emerge --ask --verbose --depclean net-proxy/tinyproxy
See the Binary package guide for more information.
See the repoman article for additional information.

The Cooking of the Eastern Mediterranean: 300 Healthy, Vibrant, and Inspired Recipes
by Paula Wolfert
41 used & new
5.0 out of 5 stars
The One Book I was looking for!!!
April 17 2004
This review is from:
The Cooking of the Eastern Mediterranean: 300 Healthy, Vibrant, and Inspired Recipes (Hardcover)
The person who bitterly wrote that this book has "millions of kibbeh recipes..." actually did a favor to me. His or her derogatory statement triggered my purchase: I finally found the book I was looking for!!
This book made it to the list of winners of Julia Child's Awards, and it is by far the best guide to prepare dishes like Kibbeh or kibbi I have found. Kibbeh is the national dish of Lebanon and a staple of Middle Eastern Cuisine. A really nice treat to all!
My kibbehs turned out GREAT for the first time!!! My frustration is over!! The "exotic" spices can be purchased online, just like the book. Not a big deal to me.

Recomended to me and now I recommend it to you all !!!

This review is from:
Chopin: Sonata in B flat minor; Berceuse; Ballade No. 4 in F minor (Audio CD)
I will make it very simple to digest:
Sound Quality, Performance, Selection, Price: 10 out of 10.
I was so impressed with this album that I decided to write about it for you to enjoy it as well. Even the content selection is a piece of art in itself. The production of this compact is very well done. It sets the "magic" that goes from the Sonata in B flat minor to Berceuse, and from Berceuse to the Ballade, the lingering mazurkas, and, finally, the crown of this outstanding production and performance: The Fantasie in F minor.
This album is a piece of art in every way...! It's not only Moravec, who is way up there in inspiration and impecable performance. I'm talking about the team that put these pieces together -like jewels- without overwhelming each other, but supporting each other, articulating a mood that is consistent without falling in monotony. And, yes, it will mesmerize your senses as it did with mine. And yes, it will let you craving for more, and you will do what I did: play it again, and again. If you need to grab a defect on this album, THIS IS IT!
This is the kind of album that will set the mood for intimacy...
Very moving, very touching. Ideal companion to a good wine or a moment of inner expansion.
Confused Photographer's Guide to Photographic Exposure and the Simplified Zone System

I wish I had this book before I bought my photo gear!!
Sept. 3 2000
This review is from:
Confused Photographer's Guide to Photographic Exposure and the Simplified Zone System (Paperback)
If you are just getting into Photography as a hobby and haven't bought your gear yet, buy this book. It will save you hundreds (literally!) of dollars. If you want to burn films to collect satisfactions rather than headaches, frustrations and unnecessary expenses in film and film developing, this is the book for you.
It will take you step by step in a familiar language (not that techno jargon to confuse readers and impress people like you and I, without a degree in Photography, and, in a logical and simple manner will get you into the basic and most proven techniques to achieve decent pictures. It will show you what you need to know about your camera and about light, films, exposure and about the camera features you need to be looking for to do the job just right. Once you've learned what he wants you to learn and practice, then you'll be in a comfortable position to be more creative and be on your own to do your best in this beautiful hobby.
I highly recommend this book, and I do it with the same pleasure and enthusiasm as the other reviewers. They have made a great job in pointing out how good it was for them and what it can do for you as a novice shutterbug.
V12 Middle Qrts Beethoven Edi
Offered by Vecosell

5.0 out of 5 stars
Absolutely beautiful!!
Sept. 3 2000
This review is from:
V12 Middle Qrts Beethoven Edi (Audio CD)
The Middle Quartets resemble a product of Beethoven's second period. A period of departure from the Haydn + Mozart influences with compositions such as Fidelio and the symphony in E flat, "Eroica". Also, from this period is the misterious sonata "Hammerklavier", although someone would argue that "Hammerklavier" was the first product of the third period.
The first three Strings Quartets here are the very famous "Razumowsky Quartets", named after Count Andreas Razowmovsky -the Russian Embassador to Vienna-. They are here complete, in a special edition issued by Deutsche Grammophon in celebration of Beethoven's 100th. anniversary. Useless to say, DG is using here everything they could possibly do to get a product with an outstanding sound and presence and performance. To me, the sound from the media is as important as the rendition itself of the musicians. After all, this is not a Live Presentation you are attenting to.
The "Razumovsky" Quartets were followed a few years later by Opus 74, also called "The Harp" and a year later or so, Opus 95. They are both here included. Pretty good job by DG and a Great Performance by the Emerson Quartet!
The Emerson String Quartet is a premier ensemble of the United States, in particular, and the world of music and humanity in general, since they have championed many noble and humanitarian causes in addition of their immaculate performances. In this Double CD, the have given their heart and made one of their most outstanding performances according to the Critics.
In summary: This CD is historically and melodically very important: The Razumowsky Quartets represent a major shift in Beethoven's musical direction. Secondly, the sound of the CD is just wonderful, absolutely beautiful!, and finally, but not less importantly, the rendition of the Emerson String Quartet is just incomparable. To my opinion, this is a "Must Have" Compac Disc, where the 100th anniversary of this towering genious is celebrated generously and without any reserve. You will love this CD!!!!
KODAK Guide To 35MM Photography

5.0 out of 5 stars
Just the right book for me!
Sept. 2 2000
This review is from:
KODAK Guide To 35MM Photography (Paperback)
First off, I bought this book after reading the review written by Mr. John H. Henderson, from Melbourne, Fl.
I was exactly in the same situation he described about his friend. I gave it a try and I was not dissapointed. The book is just right for me as a beginner looking for the most appropriate foundation in Photography before becoming a more serious shutterbug.
I needed to take good pics and avoid the Auto-Exposure traps and its unpredictable results. I wanted to have control over what I want from my camera and avoid my 35mm camera to end its life in the darkest corner of my room and replaced by a Point and Shoot. I bought this book to avoid that. Now I'm not afraid when pulling out my camera to shoot. The camera is now my allied, not my Pandora's box, and "Burning films" NOW makes sense to me.
Shooting is now giving me satisfactions, not blurring frustations. This book will jump start yourself in photography. It will do for you the same it did for me.
It is written in a "digestible" language, with a very practical approach. It is simple, well organized, generously illustrated and quite straight-forward. It will teach you how to get the pics you want, as a beginner, and it will set grounds for you to grow further in your hobby.
Even though this book is not intended for the "Pros" and the Amateurs of the world, trust me, they probably have it always handy to brush up! . A word of caution: buy it before it goes out of print ! Good stuff doesn't last too long. Thank you, Mr. Henderson, for your advise about this book!

A real gem!!

This review is from:
Integrale Des 6 Qnts A Cordes (Audio CD)
This set of 3 CD's is absolutely an authentic gem. The sound is georgeous!! So amazingly good that you'd think you have the Talich Quartet right in your room LIVE and just playing for you!! The performance of the Quartet is impressive, conveying the musical messages from Mozart in a warm, charming and invigorating way. I just can't stop listening these pieces!! I don't get tired of them!! I have never get bored with them.
If I were to live with only three CD's in my collection of Classical Music, this set would be one of them. No doubt about it!!
If you like Chamber Music, you like Mozart and if you consider yourself to be an audiophile or demand the best sound possible for what you pay for, and if you care for only top notch performers executing to the highest standards of quality, discipline and sensitive mastery, then this CD is for you.
Tchaikovsky: Concerto No. 1/Rachmaninoff: Concerto No. 2

4.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding rendition!!
Aug. 26 2000
This review is from:
Tchaikovsky: Concerto No. 1/Rachmaninoff: Concerto No. 2 (Audio CD)
I prefer Barry Douglas' rendition of the piano concerto in B flat with the majestic support of the London Symphony lead by Leonard Slatkin. I also prefer Sviatoslav Richter's at the piano with Stanislaw Wiskock as a conductor. They have won my 5 stars, but there is no doubt in my mind that Van Cliburn did an outstanding job as one of the few top performers of this Concerto. The sound of the orchestra is acceptable as it is in the impecable playing of Vladimir Ashkenazy with Lorin Maazel and Gary Graffman's with Szell as a conductor, all of them outstanding performances and very dear to me. Any of the above will give you a lot of listening pleasure. For the Rachmaninov's No.2, the performance of the pianist is equally good, though I still don't understand why the orchestra did not live to Reiner's standards. This does not mean it is a bad one, though. It just make it acceptable.
I have this CD, I have listened to it many times and I recommend it without reserve as much as any of the Pianists/Orchestras mentioned in this review: they all perspirate the passionate drama Tchaikovsky wanted to instil in this Opus and won't let you down after in your listening pleasure.

Vln Cto (Audio CD)
The sound is extremely poor. Perlman himself would hate this production for its lack of sound engineering and its lousy quality control. EMI Disgraced this particular performance. If you want to hear Brahm's Violin Concerto try Anne-Marie Mutter with DG, Yehudi Menuhim with Seraphim, or look for Isaac Stern's. If you love Perlman's performances, then go for it with Barenboim (under our infamous label EMI, but with good sound). And do yourself a favor: DON'T BUY THIS CD!

Velazquez Spanish/English Dictionary (Hardcover)
The New Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary is the best bilingual dictionary I've ever used. It's richness, in depth presentation of nouns, adjectives and verbs, its selection of examples, local and common expresions, pronunciation, presentation and format, etc., they all make this dictionary to standout by itself among the rest. I strongly recommend it to anyone for business, college or home. This is a Mr. Bilingual Dictionary! The price at Amazon.com is fair. The value of the book its unlimited. Really a piece of jewelry! Lincoln Mejia Raleigh, NC. --------------------------------------
Este diccionario, renovado y puesto al dia por Mariano Velazquez de la Cadena, quien fuera Profesor de Español en la Universidad de Columbia, es, a mi juicio, la obra mas sobresaliente en su categoria. Este es un diccionario sin par, con una increible y acertada riqueza de vocabulario contenida en una encuadernacion esmerada y cuidadosa. La calidad de sus paginas es excelente, y el hecho de ser el mas exhaustivo y avanzado trabajo de referencia que hasta nuestros dias yo haya visto, todo esto en conjunto, hacen de esta obra de referencia bilingue una obra fundamental y un verdadero clasico. Por lo demas, su precio es bastante razonable. Le invito a que lo compre y lleve a su casa, a su oficina, a cualquier sitio en que se vea precisado a buscar una palabra o una frase que la ejemplifique. No se arrepentira. Se lo aseguro!

I've been searching for a plug-in but haven't found anything yet.

Social network sites such as Facebook are often conceived of as purely social spaces; however, as these sites have evolved, so have the ways in which students are using them. In this study, we examine how undergraduate students use the social network site Facebook to engage in classroom-related collaborative activities (e.g., arranging study groups, learning about course processes) to show how Facebook may be used as an informal tool that students use to organize their classroom experiences, and explore the factors that predict type of use. Data from two surveys (N = 302, N = 214) are used to analyze how Facebook use, social and psychological factors, self-efficacy, and types of instructor-student communication on Facebook are related to positive and negative collaboration among students. We found that predictors of Facebook use for class organizing behaviors include self-efficacy and perceived motivation to communicate with others using the site. When placed in the context of social and psychological factors, Facebook intensity did not predict either positive or negative collaboration, suggesting that how students used the site, rather than how often they used the tool or how important they felt it was, affected their propensity to collaborate.

With plans to spend $8 million on flood and drainage schemes
next year, the Otago Regional Council is giving Taieri
residents an opportunity to learn more about their flood
scheme at meetings this week.
Council engineering, hazards and science director Gavin
Palmer said the annual public gatherings gave people a chance
to talk to councillors, staff and ask questions about the
flood risk on the Taieri.
''While we can't completely eliminate flood risk, it's useful
for everyone to be up-to-date with how the schemes work and
what protection they offer,'' he said.
• A public meeting will be held at the Mosgiel Coronation
Hall from 7pm tonight and drop-in sessions at the Mosgiel
Library from 10am-2pm and 3pm-5.30pm tomorrow.

Gavin Guile is dying. He'd thought he had five years left - now he's got less than one. With 50,000 refugees, a bastard son, and an ex-fiancée who may have learned his darkest secret, Gavin's got problems on every side.
As he loses control of his magic, all magic is running wild, threatening to destroy the Seven Satrapies. The old gods are being reborn. Their army of color wights is unstoppable, and the only salvation may be the brother whose freedom and life Gavin stole 16 years ago.
©2012 Brent Weeks (P)2012 Hachette Audio
"Epic fantasy at its best . . . I was hooked in from the first page and couldn't put it down, even at the last. It is, quite frankly, superb." (Sci-Fi London)
"Weeks manages to ring new tunes on...old bells, letting a deep background slowly reveal its secrets and presenting his characters in a realistically flawed and human way." (Publishers Weekly)
"Weeks has written an epic fantasy unlike any of its contemporaries. It is a truly visionary and original work, and has set the bar high for others in its subgenre." (graspingforthewind.com)
"Good performance Mr Vance"
Having read the book myself it was great to hear it read by another. Wonderful.
"Great story great narration"
Simon was a magnificent narrator and the story is compelling
Brandon Sanderson's Way of Kings- great heroes
Great plot and characters so well performed
"Spectacular story, great listen."
The second novel in the Lightbringer trilogy, The Blinding Knife is a spectacular read and a great listen. Simon Vance does a great job with the narration, and Brent Weeks' writing just keeps getting better with every book he writes. This time Kip is in Black Guard training, Liv is working with the Colour Prince, Gavin/Dazen reveals his secret to Karris and Andross Guile starts his manipulations of Kip. Readers of Brandon Sanderson, Peter V. Brett and George R. R. Martin will love Brent Weeks.
I need some C8H10N4O2
"Utterly Entertaining"
I haven't read the print edition, but the audio book production is fantastic.
The characters are what makes the is book. I love them all to bits even the bad guys are great. I can't wait for the next instalment in the series!
"The best Brent Weeks novel to date"
Excellent plot and original ideas in the Nine Kings concept. Loved the character development of some of the key people. Flawless narration. Definitely up there alongside Feist and Eddings as one of my favourite authors.
"Book worth reading"
Loved it !!! Nothing more to say it was a great book and can't wait to read number 3 !
"awesome 2nd part"
loved it, can't wait for part 3. Brent weeks work in fantasy writing is some of the best in years. I look forward to his next books
"Good, but not engaging as the first in the series"
I enjoyed this book, but definitely not as much as the first in the series. The Blinding Knife felt like it took a long while to go anywhere and a lot of the book feels like setup for subsequent stories. The exception to this is the Kip narrative which I always wanted to keep coming back to.
"Thank you Simon Vance"
Good book fantastic performance. Wish he'd narrated the first book. Makes up for some of the weaker areas of the story.
"Much better narrator than book 1"
Brilliant, just brilliant. The narrator tooks things to the right level and I cannot wait to get onto book 3. Well done Brent and Simon
"Very entertaining"
This book is very entertaining and I could not stop until I had read the whole book. I loved the mix of characters and the plot of the book. You can listen to the book whilst basking in the sun in the park or whilst taking a walk. Absolutely beautiful.
"Much better than the last one..."
I read the first instalment of this series and found it to be poorly edited, with whole paragraphs requiring modification. I don't know what the printed copy of this latest book is like, but I certainly didn't find the same level of ineptitude here with the audio version.
Standard fantasy fare with creative strengths in the same grouping as Feist.
A touch too melodramatic for me, with many characters all sounding like they smoke and drink too much, but Andross Guile sounded great.
No, though I did finish it fairly quickly.
Fairly solid offering for fantasy buffs,

It's Mariachi Time
All's quiet outside of Saint Paul School in East Harlem. The rain-slicked streets are empty, the students gone.
Crack open the door, though, and you hear a flurry of notes. Trumpets blaring. Violins dancing. The throaty voice of a woman, her lyrics in Spanish spilling out into the hallway.
Ah, mariachi!
And this isn't your father's mariachi band, a bunch of men drinking Tequila as they strum away in a cantina or on the subway.
Oh no, this is the real thing: Mariachi music has arrived.
The band, Mariachi Real De Mexico, was formed some 20 years ago by Ramon Ponce Jr. and his father. About 10 years later, Mr. Ponce's younger brother, Miguel, joined.
Now the three, along with the Villalobos brothers and several others, are full-time musicians.
Tonight, it's crunch time. The band, like many others across the region, is preparing for the busiest weekend of the year, when the Virgin of Guadalupe festivities are held. This year, the holiday falls on Monday, so all weekend long mariachi bands will be performing furiously at church Masses and events, catering to the region's booming Mexican population, whose churches will book bands a year in advance.
For the Real De Mexico men—and two women—that means loading up into Mr. Ponce Jr.'s GMC Yukon (the license plate reads "Mariachi") and zooming between up to 20 performances in three days, including at St. Patrick's Cathedral on Sunday night, a 1 a.m. performance at a Bushwick church and another one in Jackson Heights at 5 a.m.
"When it comes to Our Lady of Guadalupe, everyone wants to have mariachi music," says Mr. Ponce Jr. "As soon as we're done performing, they say, 'We want you back next year."
A day later, in a one-bedroom apartment in Bayside, the men that make up Mariachi Mendoza are practicing for the more than a dozen events they are booked for.
Their band is newer, formed about two years ago, said Jorge Mendoza, whose company, ViolinMen, performs other types of music, too.
Mr. Mendoza played in an orchestra when he lived in Mexico. Now, "it's only mariachi," he says.
"Almost every weekend we perform," he says. "Weddings, parties, serenades, cultural hours, all kinds of events."
And the music's popularity extends beyond the Mexican community.
Other Latino groups and even Asians, such as Indians, book the band for weddings and events.
"It's very popular in every culture," he said.
One of the oldest and most established mariachi bands is Mariachi Tapatio de Alvaro Paulino.
Alvaro Paulino Sr. started the band in 1983. He still plays the trumpet and his son, Alvaro Paulino Jr., 28 years old, plays the trumpet and violin. Mariachi playing goes back five generations in their family.
Mr. Paulino Jr.'s father began the band the year he was born. "He was one of the first mariachis here when there was like no mariachi work at all," said Mr. Paulino Jr. "He was only gigging once every three months."
For Mr. Paulino Jr., who was born in the U.S. and whose mother is Puerto Rican, the mariachi music is a link to a country that he's never called home. "The music is so strong, it has pulled us over more toward our Mexican culture," he said.
Mr. Paulino Jr. started a mariachi conservatory in Bushwick, where he lives. The conservatory holds group and private lessons. He's also the mariachi director at a program run by a nonprofit out of the Brooklyn Music School that began last year, and he started an all-female mariachi band in February.
Mariachi bands have had to overcome the stigma of not being taken seriously. But these days, almost all the established bands in the region are composed of trained musicians. They have snazzy websites and agents, do recordings and get multiple, custom-made outfits from selected tailors in Mexico.
Many have made television appearances and have played alongside some of the world's most eminent musicians.
Last month, the genre received international recognition from the United Nations Organization for Education, Science and Culture (UNESCO), an act that was hailed by mariachi musicians across the world.
"It was a big thing for us mariachis," said Mr. Paulino Jr.
The Ponce family began the Mariachi Academy of New York 10 years ago. The nonprofit teaches mariachi to youth out of Saint Paul School in East Harlem. Demand is high and the waiting list includes some 80 people, says Mr. Ponce Jr.
"We don't do any advertising or anything like that," he says. "I'm sure if we did we'd have hundreds because the Mexican community is growing so fast and everybody is interested in the music or the food."
On a recent day at practice, Ramon Ponce Jr., stood tall and proud, strumming a large guitarron, or bass guitar. His father and young brother played the trumpet.
Humberto Flores strummed a vihuela, or five-string guitar. And Alberto and Luis Villalobos, brothers from Veracruz, Mexico, who are considered violin virtuosos, fiddled away. (The brothers—along with a third brother—compose their own music for a separate, acclaimed band, the Villalobos Brothers, which plays Latin jazz and other music.)
A picture of the Virgin of Guadalupe before them, the men burst into a lively rendition of "La Guadalupana."
Female singers Yolanda Garcia and Angelica Vargas sing and everyone joins in for the chorus:
Y eran mexicanos y eran mexicanos
Y eran mexicanos su porte y su faz.
On Sunday night at about 11 p.m., the band will return to Saint Paul's for a Mass that is expected to attract more than 2,000 people. They will play this song over and over again until every congregant receives communion:
Desde entonces para el Mexicano
Desde entonces para el Mexicano
Ser Guadalupano, ser Guadalupano
Ser Guadalupano es algo esencial.

Cr Vandervis complained to police in December about the
publication, just before the local body elections, of an
article rating councillors' performance during the last
council term.
He believed the article breached the Local Electoral Act by
attempting to interfere with or influence voters in the
process of voting in the elections.
Relieving Dunedin, Waitaki and Clutha area commander
Inspector Mel Aitken said in a statement yesterday police had
decided not to pursue the matter.
''Police have investigated the complaint and sought a legal
opinion. As a result of the legal opinion, police will not
[be] pursuing the matter any further,'' she said.
Cr Vandervis yesterday said he was not surprised at the
decision and was considering taking a private prosecution.
''We anticipated police inability to recognise what the
Electoral Act is about. They failed in the case of [MP John]
Banks ... and I believe they have failed in recognising the
clear leading of the electorate by the ODT councillor
rating article.''
One of his biggest complaints was over the timing of the
article, which was published as voters were receiving their
electoral papers.
''If the ODT had decided to do this a month prior to
people getting the election papers, not a problem.''
University of Otago public law specialist Prof Andrew Geddis
said there was never a chance of the complaint being
''Simply providing information about candidates and your
considered opinion as to their behaviour or performance -
there is just no way on earth that is going to be considered
If Cr Vandervis did take a private prosecution it would be
thrown out of court at the first hurdle.
ODT editor Murray Kirkness said he was not surprised
by the decision, adding the media played a vital role in the
democratic process.
''Scrutinising the performance of elected officials and
publishing opinions of all kinds are fundamental roles of the
media,'' he said.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Apr 01st, 1994
Running Time: 90
Director: Sean Michaels
Company: Pleasure Productions
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
In this basketball-themed vid, Sean Michael plays a character akin to Michael Jordan, the star of his team. Michaels is held in contempt by one of his teammates (F.M. Bradley), who considers Michael a ball hog. Bradley's views aren't shared by Peter North, who as a white guy, is probably happy just to be on the team. But while white guys can't jump, they certainly can hump, and North proves that point when he pairs up with Janet Jacme.
As in real life, the superstar players get the superstar women. In the next scene, luscious Brittany O'Connell offers her well-shaped ass to Michaels, who responds by taking her from behind. After getting in a fight with Michaels, however, O'Connell seeks solace from Bradley's wife, Nikki Sinn, and the two soon demonstrate that you don't have to play with balls to have a good time. Meanwhile, to get Bradley back in line, the team owner arranges a secretly-video'd tryst between the "Field Marshall" and Sahara Sands, who is more than happy to oblige — especially when North joins in for some double-penetration action.
On the whole, however, this feature comes up somewhat short in the sex department, which is standard at best, and in the plot department, which is convoluted and confusing. Fans of O'Connell and interracial fare will no doubt overlook these shortcomings, so market it accordingly.

Hello !
The Problem in short:
Sometimes when I or a client uploads an image I get a
Fatal error: Allowed memory size ... exhausted
error due to the small memory_limit provided by the hoster.
(the error could originate from media.php / line 258 - but thats just an example)
Increasing the memory_limit is not an option (so no .htaccess, php.ini or any stuff like that)
The only possible option (from my point of view) is catch the error
(as it is an fatal error I might have to use
register_shutdown_function) but I´d rather NOT mess with the core files of wordpress.
Is there ANY way the wordpress cracks might suggest that could handle the given problem
(I have already limited the maximum upload size of images with the following code - but this is of course no solution to the problem - it might just limit the number the fatal error is thrown)
add_filter('wp_handle_upload_prefilter', 'limit_upload_max_image_size');
function limit_upload_max_image_size($file) {
$max_image_upload_size = 1800 * 1024; // 1.8 MB
$is_image = false;
if (isset($file['tmp_name'])) {
$file_size = getimagesize($file['tmp_name']);
if (!isset($file_size['error'])) {
$is_image = $file_size['mime']; // image
if ($is_image && $file['size'] > $max_image_upload_size) {
$file['error'] = 'Maximum Image Upload Size is: '.($max_image_upload_size/1024).' KB';
return $file;
SO: howto catch a fatal error in wordpress ?
thanks a lot - hope anyone can help me with this problem (cause - from a client perspective - it makes the system unreliable und probably even unuseable)

I then installed it on xampp.
Later on I wanted to upgrade to the latest normal version of wp.
But I can't.
The upgrade will always be pulling from trunk only.
(it shows in admin screen as nightlybuild )
Is this expected behavior ?
Is there anything I could do to upgrade to normal version ?
Thanks for any help!

Didn't like not having the option of color choice, I lucked out and got the silver one I wanted. Dont know who would want the blue one? Purchased this tuner to install on the Rear Seat Entertainment system in my 2005 Chevy Malibu. I live around the St Louis Mo area, so the only affiliates with Mobile DTV service are NBC and PBS, with CBS being "available soon". I was only able to receive PBS programming, unfortunate for myself, because I was wanting to view the NBC station for viewing the news. Ultimately, I'm going to have to return this unit because of this. It is a good receiver, but I think I'm just not close enough to the station. I took pictures of everything that comes in the box. Even the RCA website doesn't want to share any photos of this thing, other than the one WalMart already shows. Check availability of Mobile DTV service in your area before buying. Again, it's a good product, but it just doesn't work for my needs.
Manual not real clear, After figuring out what to do I found both applications to be working even though the listed ones from my area were not all on the air. Very easy to use after initial setup and does what I want it to do with a clear clean sharp picture.
