You see, I am usually very fit. "Pfffff!" Until this winter, in fact, I hadn't been ill for over two years. "I think you'll find it's nearer two weeks." No, that was the same bout of 'flu as this one, it's just that I thought I'd got rid of it a fortnight earlier, and I hadn't. That's what I was trying to explain. Anyway, in its first incarnation the bug just made me feel totally rotten. I couldn't get warm, and I could barely stay awake.
I'd pop two quadruple-strength Nurofen, crawl under the blankets fully clothed, and lie there half the day, dreaming strange dreams until dark. My temperature, I would guess, was in the early 100s. "Just above normal, you mean." No, I don't. I think I can tell when my body heat is going off the scale. There are certain signs, you know, by which a man can detect if he's unusually hot.
"Oh, please, you're not going to talk about your testicles again, are you?"
It's relevant. The further they move away from the body, the hotter you are, and I was practically wearing mine from my belt. Besides, if you'd bought a thermometer when I suggested it, then the whole issue would have been beyond contention.
Then all my glands swelled up to the size of grapefruits ("Melons, don't you mean? Or planets perhaps?") and my throat became very sore indeed. So now I added Strepsils to the Nurofen and croaking to the moaning. I was alarmed only when the channels going from my neck to my ears became inflamed, and I seemed to recall that this was a symptom of meningitis. After two days this seemed to subside and I thought I was getting better. No thanks to you.
"What do you mean, no thanks to me? I had a job to go to and kids to look after."
Sure, but could you not, just once, have made me so much as a cup of tea? Or asked how I was in a tone suggesting something other than stern disbelief? "I did offer you a hot drink. You turned it down." That was six bloody years ago.
Whatever. Things died down for a few days, but last Friday I was knocked off my feet again. The temperature was back, the glands were back, the near-delirium was back - like something out of Wilkie Collins. But there were new refinements. Now I had a dry cough that scoured round my alveoli like an industrial bleach, producing nothing except pain and the danger of cracked ribs. "Will you listen to yourself? Cracked ribs." It happened to my friend Danny, actually, and it was no laughing matter.
Benylin joined Nurofen and Strepsils; one inadvertent sweep of a hot limb, and there would go a hundred quid's worth of pharmacologicals. I endured another five days of feeling washed out and totally grotty. Even my tear ducts seemed to be producing some form of acidic fluid that stung my eyes. And now, walking down the High Street, mostly recovered, I am struck by how empty the place is. I presume because of the 'flu.
"It'll be the men mostly. Women can't afford to be ill." Excuse me, enough already; I mean, what about your migraines? The whole world has to stop for them. "They're different, as you'd know if you'd ever had one. But then you're the bloke who once compared his ear-ache..." (It was acute suppurative otititis, actually) "...his earache with the pain of childbirth."
OK, OK, that was a mistake. All I'm saying is that it isn't much fun being ill when you're a grown-up. Not much fun at all.

Fisherman Catches Bronze Age Figurine
Thursday, May 29, 2014
The Siberian Times. He donated the figurine to the Tisul History Museum, where it was dated to the early Bronze Age. The 4,000-year-old figure was carved in horn that had fossilized. "Quite likely, it shows a pagan god. The only things we have dated approximately to the same age are a stone necklace and two charms in the shapes of a bear and a bird," said Marina Banschikova, director of the museum.KEMEROVO, RUSSIA—Nikolay Tarasov was fishing with a net in a river near his home in Tisul, Russia, when he recovered what he thought was an unusual stone, but he realized it was carved with almond-shaped eyes, a large mouth with full lips, and a ferocious expression before he threw it back into the water. "On the reverse side on the head the carver etched plaited hair with wave like lines. Below the plait there are lines looking like fish scales," he told

ATKINSON HEADS BACK TO FAMILIAR TERRAIN Following an impressive performance during his tarmac rallying debut last month Australian Chris Atkinson will return to more familiar terrain this weekend to compete in Wales Rally GB, round 12 of the ...
Following an impressive performance during his tarmac rallying debut last month Australian Chris Atkinson will return to more familiar terrain this weekend to compete in Wales Rally GB, round 12 of the World Rally Championship.
Based in the Welsh capital of Cardiff this UK round of the Championship is contested on gravel roads throughout the forests in the South of Wales.
For the tenth time this year Wales Rally GB will be an event that Atkinson hasn't contested previously. He does however have the experience of completing the reconnaissance for last year's event on his side.
"This is my first Rally GB, and I think it will be tough but I have the knowledge gained from completing the recce last year to give me a bit of a head start," said Atkinson.
"There are some nice stages in the event, but it could get tricky if it rains. The team has a lot of knowledge about the event, and I've got some experience of rallying in wet conditions. In the Asia-Pacific series I did last year we had lots of muddy rallies, so that may help me over the weekend."
Throughout Atkinson's opening 11 events with the Subaru team the young Australian has recorded a number of achievements including three stage victories and has also set 24 stage times inside the top five.
Boosted by the speed that he and his West Australian co-driver Glenn Macneall have shown over the past few events Atkinson is confident of a strong finish in Wales, despite the tricky conditions that the pair may face.
"I'm pleased with the speed we've shown in previous events and if we can maintain this speed and improvement I am confident we will gain a good result," said Atkinson
"Today I will be completing my second gravel test of the year in mid Wales which will be good to get some more miles in the car before the weekend. Unlike Australia where the roads vary so much from different parts of the country I think the surfaces throughout Wales are very similar. The biggest factor I believe will be the changeable weather."
The Subaru team has an impressive record in their local event with the England based team taking out eight of the previous ten Rally GB events contested in the WRC. Its winning streak started in 1994 when Colin McRae drove the Impreza to a maiden Rally GB win, a feat he repeated the following year and again in 1997. Richard Burns later scored two victories in '99 and 2000.
Atkinson's team-mate Petter Solberg scored his maiden WRC victory at the event in 2002. He went on to win in Wales, and claim the drivers Championship in 2003 before once again claiming the victory in Rally GB last year. If successful in claiming his fourth straight victory in the event he will join a select group of only a handful of drivers to have won an individual World Championship event four years in a row.
Wales Rally GB will consist of 354.22 competitive kilometres across 17 timed stages, the first of which will begin at 7:58am local time on Friday. For the first time crew will contest a stage of the WRC indoors when they tackle the 1.1km super special stage inside Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, host of the 2005 FA Cup Final, on Saturday night.
With five rounds remaining in the Championship, including Perth's Telstra Rally Australia in November, Sebastien Loeb holds a commanding 32-point lead in his Title defense over Marcus Gronholm. Solberg is six points further back in third.
The Subaru World Rally Team will enter a three-car team this weekend with Atkinson and Solberg being joined by Frenchman Stephane Sarrazin. Atkinson and Solberg will be the two drivers eligible to score points towards the Manufacturers Championship.
The local time in Wales is 9 hours behind AEST.

Nuclear receptor (NR) signaling is essential for normal development as well as normal metabolic and physiologic function in humans. In addition, NRs are potential targets in a variety of human diseases. Central to the action of NRs is their ability to recruit the transcriptional co-repressors, nuclear receptor co-represor (NCoR) and silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptors (SMRT), in the absence of ligand or in the presence of antagonists to target key pathways. In the following proposal we will use novel mouse models to understand how NCoR and SMRT specifically interact with target NRs in vivo. In particular we will focus on the thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and the liver x receptor (LXR) to understand the role of the co-repressors in vivo as we have determined already that NCoR can regulate their signaling. In the first Aim, we will determine if co-repressor specificity exists in vivo by analyzing the role of both NCoR and SMRT individually and together in context of thyroid hormone action in the liver. In the second Aim, we will focus on exploring the role of NCoR in both congenital hypothyroidism and resistance to thyroid hormone. Both of these human diseases are hypothesized to be due to aberrant co-repressor recruitment, though this has never been tested in vivo. In the third Aim, we will determine the role of NCoR in LXR-signaling both in the liver and in a variety of other key target issues. These studies will have direct applicability to the regulation of cholesterol metabolism in vivo. Interestingly, because LXR and TR intersect in the regulation of a number of key gene targets in cholesterol metabolism this Aim will also allow us to determine whether NCoR action is specific to a target NR. The completion of these three Aims will allow for greater comprehension of how modulation of co-repressor signaling in vivo alters key metabolic pathways. Furthermore this work should lead to novel insight into the target specificity of individual co-repressors and their role in key disease states that affect human health.
The transcriptional co-repressors, NCoR and SMRT, have been hypothesized to play a key role in a variety of human diseases including leukemia, congenital hypothyroidism, resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH), metabolic inflammation and hormone-related cancers because of their ability to be recruited to nuclear receptors. By focusing on the role of these co-repressors in their interactions with the thyroid hormone receptors and the liver x receptor we will gain insight into the mechanism by which these co-repressors function in the whole animal. In addition, our studies should shed new light on congenital hypothyroidism, RTH and hypercholesterolemia as our approach will directly test the role of co-repressors in these diseases.

JVC Everio GZ-VX700 Camcorder Review
The VX700 offers some of the coolest WiFi capabilities we've seen.
You may have heard about JVC's new line of "WiFi-enabled" Everio camcorders, of which the GZ-VX700 is a member. The VX700 isn't the cheapest of JVC's 2012 Everio camcorders, but it comes with a modest $499 price tag that makes it a bit cheaper than the competition. To keep the costs down, however, JVC included no internal memory on the GZ-VX700, so you need to add in the cost of memory cards to your total package price. The performance of the camcorder, as well as its cheap construction, also didn't leave us that impressed—but that's what we've come to expect from mid-range JVC models.

The Suicide Kit by David L. Hayles.
Feel Damn fine today. Finished 'The suicide kit' by David l. Hayles. Superb book. This book is a dangerous look at the world of the deranged and the suffering. A book made up of such sweet, filthy, stomach churning short stories which dare you to stop reading or suffer sad consequences.
The best parts have got to be Lyle Talbot's search in the Kissimee swamps for the elusive Skunk ape and Eddie Constantine, a crazed lunatic who preys on london tourists and lures them back to a seedy bed and breakfast.
Also the incredible Doctor Octor who would give Naked lunch's Dr Benway a run for his money.
This could make you sick or it could make you laugh.

Progression and Regression in Language by Kenneth Hyltenstam
Book DescriptionFirst published in 1994, this crosslinguistic collection looks at changes and developments in language involving gain or loss in structural complexity or utility. The dynamics of these processes of progression and regression are examined at the societal and the individual level, and the two are compared. In the former, the focus is on the social and cultural forces that influence groups of speakers to create new languages or abandon old ones. In the latter, the acquisition and attrition of both first and second languages are considered. Questions raised include: Can parallel structural patterning be observed in whole languages and in the individual's version of a language? Is there parallelism between progression and regression? Can changes occurring in progression and regression be interpreted in a typological framework? These are addressed from sociological, neuropsychological, and linguistic perspectives.

Europe's oldest elephant died after Romanian police set their dogs on it when it refused to enter its winter quarters, a new report has revealed.
Bucharest zoo staff originally claimed that Gaya, 48, had died of old age. But a report commissioned by the city council, which owns the zoo, found that keepers had asked local police to set their dogs on the elephant to force it to move from its pen.
The scandal emerged six months after Romania's entry into the EU turned the spotlight on the fate of animals in the country's 29 zoos.
Animal rights groups had hoped that EU membership, with new laws on minimum cage sizes, would improve the situation. But without the funding to make the changes, zoo managements have been left with animals they can no longer afford to keep, or to re-house.
The new report reveals that Gaya panicked, fell, and broke a leg, after being bitten a number of times by the dogs. Eyewitnesses said the female elephant, which weighed four tons, was too heavy to lift and had been left on the ground for two days by zoo staff, who did not know what else to do.
According to the report, the animal cried out continuously until it died, probably from stress and respiratory problems. It also revealed that less valuable zoo animals had been killed as food for more expensive reptiles, and noted that no staff member had been fired or faced any criminal charges.
At the zoo last week one visitor, Mirela Ionescu, 32, said: "I had hoped things might be better now but I can see little has changed. Zoos here in Romania are even sadder places than they were."
Other zoos are also struggling to keep going. In Timisoara in western Romania, zoo managers have three lions which they are expecting to have to shoot because time has run out to find them a new home.
Mihaita Afrenie, the zoo's manager, said: "Putting them down seems to be our only option now because the new EU rules say that their cage isn't big enough."

Reviews for this vacation villa rental in Clermont, Florida

8 out of 10 would recomend
August 27, 2016
My family stayed here for a whole week. The location is great because everywhere we wanted to go was no more than 30-40 minutes away. The only problem was that the house is one of the last ones in the community. It would take us a few minutes to drive in and out of it.The good thing is that since the house is so far back it also allows for more privacy. The house looks as it does on the pictures. One thing we didn't like was that two of the shared bathrooms have two doors and one of those doors doesn't lock and anyone could accidentally burst in. The same thing happened with the downstairs en suite bathroom. The pool was a nice feature. We enjoyed using it although we did have a bit of trouble figuring out how to turn on the lights for it. Other than that we enjoyed our stay so much that we actually decided to stay an extra day, something that was easily arranged through an email with the owner. Would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone who is thinking of doing so.

This home was pretty nice for the most part. We had plenty of room for the family. There are several things that need some attention. It had rained a good bit before we got there and after we got there. The pool was a little green. I got in touch with someone and they sent out the pool guy almost before I could get off the phone. Couldn't have asked for any faster service. We enjoyed it a lot and would recommend it to others. I would suggest for some update on some furniture and the other upkeep of the home.

This vacation home is a great choice for a large family looking to get out of town for some quality R & R. There is lots of space and, with a crew of 14, we never felt overcrowded. There are several amenities and household accessories already included, so the only thing you need to bring with you is clothing. It was clean and comfortable with very little wear. It is also situated in a very quiet neighborhood. My family had a fabulous time staying at this vacation home. When our time was up we didn't want to leave. We had such a great time that we are actually looking forward to scheduling a return trip there next year. The reservation and booking process was simple and easy. For the price, you can't beat it.

We gave our children and grandchildren memeries from the estate of my mom. The Disney and Univeral parks, rental of the home and travel expense were provide by her estate. Many pictures were taken of the family and being together in this home made it possible. All of us were together and we enjoyed the Thanksgiving she gave to us. No problems were had by the home and the beds were comfortable. Everything was there for our needs. If only the weather was just a little warmer to all enjoy the pool. But, the it did not stop the kids from enjoying it.

We just returned from our vacation in Florida and were thoroughly impressed with this vacation home. It was our first trip this far south and we came with a few hesitations. But five minutes after arriving we knew we picked a great home. We spent a week there with my entire family (13 total). We had a blast and found it surprisingly roomy. The home was clean and located in a great area. It is a corner lot so there is lots of privacy and is just minutes from all kinds of shopping. The pool was amazing and our kids practically lived in it. It was well furnished and the beds were very comfortable. If you are thinking about renting in Florida I would not hesitate to book this one. You definitely will not be disappointed. Great spot and well worth it.

The home is actually has six bedrooms! The pictures are very accurate. The home is about 1.6 miles back from when you first turn on Woodcrest Way. There are no homes behind the house and it sits on the corner so there's extra parking room on the side of the home. The rooms are a nice size especially two of the master bedrooms that include huge closets. The only problem we had was there were some sugar ants (I think its a Florida thing), but a little bug spray solved the problem. The owner and the property manager is very responsive. No problem with communicating with either. The payment process was very easy. I was able to pay through PayPal from my account to the owners. There was a new roll of toilet paper in every bathroom, one roll of paper towels and a small amount of dishwashing liquid. There is small hotel soap in the bathrooms, so of course we purchase more toiletries for our stay. There are lots of bathing towels and wash cloths in the home. The kitchen is well equipped (dishes, plates, cups, forks, spoons, cookware, serving utensils). Last but not least is is not far from Disney. I believe Animal Kingdom is closet to the home.

My husband and I booked Leo's home for a family vacation to Disney and I don't think I could've found anything better than this home!

However, I found Leo, the owner, to be very responsive and overall a wonderful person to do business with! As for the house, it is absolutely gorgeous!!! Very spacious big rooms! It was so comfortable and we were relaxed the entirety of our stay! The kitchen is equipped if you choose to cook and there are also restaurants and a super walmart conveniently situated outside of the neighborhood!

This home was very private and comfortable but so central to all Florida's attractions. Lots of restaurants & shopping close by. Our kids enjoyed swimming in the pool every evening. We enjoyed being able to have a big breakfast before leaving for our adventures every day. The big corner tub was so relaxing after a long day walking at theme parks. Very spacious and clean. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a lovely say in this home. It was very spacious for our group of 9. We had 3 families plus grandmother so the 4 full bathrooms served us well. The pool was heated to our satisfaction so not having a hot tub wasn't an issue for us. The beds/pillows/bedding were all very good quality. There were lots of bath towels but very few facecloths, 1 dish towel and no hand towels, dish cloths or bath mats. We ended up buying some and taking them home with us. The kitchen was well equipped in terms of appliances however we were responsible for providing all soap (laundry, dish, bathroom), toilet paper, paper towels etc. This property was very reasonably priced and close to all parks/shopping/restaurants. It is on a corner lot with nothing behind so very private with only neighbors on one side. I would recommend this property to any family.

When 1st looking to rent a home to stay in for our Big Family Vacation to Disney (11 people), I was very weary of renting from an Individual and not a Rental Agency. You hear all kinds of stories of people being scammed. However; the owner was very nice and made the whole transacation very easy for us. The home itself was very nice as were all the furnishings. It looks just like it does in the photos. The pool was wonderful, everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The beds were very comfy and we ALL needed them to be after long days at the Disney Parks. We did have a few minor concerns during our stay which is why I am only giving 4 stars instead of 5. As these things were not too serious. I adderssed these things with the owner personally and have been assured those things will be taken care of for future guests.

Excellent Stay
July 11, 2011
I loved the stay at this home. All six bedrooms were immaculate and the bathrooms were clean. The designer who furnished the home did a job well done. The home sits on the corner, you only had one neighbor who didn't bother you, no homes behind you so you can enjoy the pool. The location of the home was perfect, close to everything. (If you drove more than 20 minutes to get to a theme park then you were lost). This home had a very homey feeling. The girls had a great time. We stayed a week because our girls had a national basketball tournament at different sports complex locations and the drive to all locations were simple to get to (you just needed to know two main highways). The shopping center at the entrance of the home complex was extremely convenient (groceries, restaurants, take out, post office, walk-in medical clinic (thank god we didn't have to use it), post office, etc.) I would definitely recommend this home to my friends and family.

Tony Parker, after signing extension: I want to 'be a Spur for life'
Offseason: Free Agency | Latest from Ken Berger | Rumors
Tony Parker has been with the San Antonio Spurs since he was 19, and his reported three-year, $43.3 million extension will keep him around until he's 36. The Spurs quietly worked out the deal and announced it on Friday while no one was really talking about Parker going into the last year of his contract.
One of the reasons negotiations were so easy is that the point guard has no desire to go anywhere else. San Antonio general manager R.C. Buford, in turn, wanted to keep the championship-winning team together and not worry about Parker's free agency. From the San Antonio Express-News' Jeff McDonald:
"I want to play for the Spurs my whole career, and be a Spur for life," Parker told the Express-News on Friday. "I love San Antonio and want to live here when my career is over. I love the city, I love the people and our great fans. I couldn't be happier."
"I'm so happy R.C., Pop and (chairman) Peter (Holt) put that trust in me, and have given me this opportunity to play my whole career for the Spurs," Parker said.
It's been discussed to death, but it really is remarkable how the Spurs have done what they've done. It's so rare for one player to spend his whole career with the team that drafted him, and it looks like we're going to see it happen with three future Hall of Famers in Parker, Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili.
For the time being, Parker will still be the guy who drives San Antonio's offense. Years from now when he's done, it's easy to picture him sitting courtside and cheering the team on like fellow Spur for life David Robinson does now.

My child has
Our Neuro-Oncology program blends the services of oncology and neurosciences to give children with central nervous system tumors access to an experienced team of doctors and other caregivers who work together using the latest technology, like our iMRI surgery suite, and evidence-based medicine to improve their health.
Cancers of the central nervous system are the most frequent type of solid tumors in children and rank second only to the leukemias as the most common malignancy in children. They account for approximately 20 percent of all pediatric cancers, with 2,500-3,000 children diagnosed in the U.S. each year. As for the vast majority of childhood cancers, the cause of neurological tumors is not known. Despite progress in successful therapy for all types of childhood cancers in the past decades, they remain the leading cause of cancer death in youth.
You can learn more about the accomplishments, advancements and successes that the Cook Children's Neuro-Oncology team has achieved, and how they are helping children now, and in the future in our Neuro-Oncology Program Annual Report 2013.
At Cook Children's, the best treatments for central nervous system cancers are developed by a team of specialists as part of a comprehensive neuro-oncology program. Along with access to leading-edge clinical trials, the team uses the best-available neurosurgical and radiotherapeutic techniques and equipment, as well as proper chemotherapy regimens.

What people are saying about Lewis Watson
Rated 5 out of 5 by Laurzooo from One of the best gig's of the year! I went with a friend and obviously without a doubt enjoyed it. Didn't enjoy the support acts, they were talented but not my cup of tea as they dragged but Lewis did as always an amazing performance and chose a perfect venue in Edinburgh. Very much appreciated the fact he included Edinburgh in his tour! :)

Rated 4 out of 5 by loony26 from Lewis didn't disappoint me - he never does! I went to this event on my own. I found the waiting for Lewis very long, and the support did not seem to be well organized, although the performers were quite nice. I think that the event finished at a reasonable time, which is a plus. Although I would like to see Lewis play more songs. I was really disappointed that I did not get a paper ticket for this event.

Rated 5 out of 5 by _ellielaws from Beautiful Have been to see Lewis before so expected good things, didn't fail to put on a good show. Lovely venue and lovely people. ((Although crowd was a bit boring, wanted a little more movement in the more upbeat songs))

Rated 1 out of 5 by Riviera67 from Dullest concert I've ever been too The earlier songs of Lewis Watsons career were really good, but the new direction and more electric sound don't really work. With a good backing band this shouldve been an excellent gig, but it was let down by Lewis's dreadful guitar sound.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Suziesuzie from Gorgeous and lovely Lewis did us proud, heart and soul performance. Fabulous show.

Nora Chipaumire
Choreographer, Performer, Teacher
Born 1965, Mutare, Zimbabwe
Lives in Brooklyn, NY
Nora Chipaumire is a choreographer and performer who uses her choreography to challenge and embrace stereotypes of Africa and the black performing body. Her work critiques colonialism and complicates notions of spectatorship and power. She will make her directorial debut with Dance for Film on location at Montclair State University in spring 2016.
Her most recent work, portrait of myself as my
father (2016), is a National Performance Network Creation Fund project, co-commissioned by Miami Dade College, in partnership with Miami Light Project, 651 Arts, Columbia College, and Georgia Institute of Technology. portrait of myself as my father will premiere at Peak Performances, Alexander Kasser Theater, Montclair in April 2016. She developed this work, which investigates the self, blackness, Africa-ness, and the minimalist African aesthetic, as a Princeton University, Lewis Center for the Arts Hodder Fellow in 2014-2015. It is the companion piece to rite riot (2013), a solo rendering of The Rite of Spring, which was commissioned by French Institute Alliance Française and presented at their Crossing the Line festival in New York and Les Subsistances in France.
Chipaumire's notable premieres include Dark Swan (2014), reconstructed for Urban Bush Women at FOCUS DANCE, The Joyce Theater, New York; The Last Heifer (2012), at PLATFORM 2012: Parallels, Danspace Project, New York; Miriam (2012), at Next Wave Festival, Brooklyn Academy of Music Fisher Theater, Brooklyn; visible (2011), at Harlem Stage, New York; Lions will roar… (2009), at Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; and Chimurenga (2007), at ODC Theater, San Francisco.
Chipaumire is a three-time New York Dance and Performance "Bessie" Awardee: in 2008 for her dance-theater work, Chimurenga, in 2007 for her body of work with Urban Bush Women, and in 2014 for the revival of her solo Dark Swan. She has also received The Alpert Award in the Arts, Dance (2012) and a Doris Duke Artist Award (2015). Her work has been supported by the MAP Fund, the Jerome Foundation, NYFA B.U.I.L.D., National Dance Project, NYSCA, The Joyce Theater Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Chipaumire received an M.A. and an M.F.A. from Mills College, in 2000 and 2002, respectively.
Artist Statement
When I discovered "concert dance" I hoped to use it to manifest the avant-garde; (a form that represented the future and released the past). At the time, I was overwhelmed by the idea and expectation (perhaps self inflicted), that an African artist should be responsible for the rich and complicated past, the ancient cultures and rituals, to be embraced by audiences at home and abroad. (I have since developed a process and work that embraces and acknowledges that an African body can be simultaneously avant-garde and guardian of ancient—the intersection of these modes of expressions has helped me create a dynamic and complex (physical) language. I am currently invested in language-building as it is my belief that the language of the body can influence or create economies and engage civic society.

Purchased game dont work
Hello.07/14/2011 I purchase Dantes Inferno ( full game )in playstation store ,but I can not run a downloaded game,it also is not available in downloadlist.If you go to playstation Store page with the game out there offer me to buy it.Where is my game ? Where is my money ?I hope for a speedy solution to the problem.
Re: Purchased game dont work
Check in your transaction history. Were you charged for it?
Rules of Conduct__The PlayStation Forum Team__Customer Support
Re: Purchased game dont work
Customer Support will treat you well, I am sure you are going to be able to get your game or a refund. I personally will never buy a digital copy of a game, for the simple fact of I do not trust the network or any other download systems. Save yourself the trouble, and buy the disc. I had just bought Dante's Inferno: Divine Edition from my local walmart for $19.99, it's a good game, I am sure you will like it.
Re: Purchased game dont work
the guy with the bad pic is right, ask for a refund request because the game should appear in your download list. call 1-800-345-7669, and give them 3-5 biz days to refund your wallet. they will send you a email letting you know when your wallet has been refunded.
Re: Purchased game dont work
I've had a similar issue. I purchased Madden 13 via the PSN store. For a time the gae ran ok butgraphically VERY choppy, almost a slide show. I performed the normal suggestions (deleted cache, disabled media server, freed up extra space deleting old games no longer played- I have the 120 gig slim model) The problem had gotten worse and no solution to be found. Am I SOL as far as any refund or do I have any recourse?

But what a contrast between the two cases. Johnson's pitiful efforts, designed to overcome an unfortunate lack of natural talent, just seem sordid and sad and pointless. The Jockey Club scandal, on the other hand, has been much more entertaining. Horse racing is, after all, virtually the only sport whose participants actually go slower as a result of taking drugs. (The only other one I can think of is school cross- country running, where school food performs a similar function.) But what makes this particular hoo-hah worth cherishing is that, after two decades of spurious respectability, racing's traditional seedy image, as featured in countless black-and-white British comedy films from the late Fifties and early Sixties, has triumphantly been revived.
It seems impossible to imagine, for instance, that anyone other than Peter Sellers, Wilfred Hyde White and David Lodge can be implicated in the whole messy business. As favourites everywhere are furtively fed iffy Mars bars and outsiders romp home by 10 lengths, it's clear that Dennis Price, Peggy Mount and Ian Carmichael are deeply if not ineradicably involved.
So what's the solution? No doubt increased security may make some difference, with anyone remotely resembling Terry-Thomas being automatically banned from all stables. Perhaps the civil service (Richard Wattis) can come up with a few proposals, and I'm sure the medical profession (Dirk Bogarde, James Robertson Justice) will also have some suggestions to make. But all we can be really sure about at the moment is that this gang of desperate criminals, whoever they are, have taken us back to racing's great days, when everyone wore trilbies and horses didn't have names like Sanyo Teasmade.
We could even see the return of that legendary racing figure, the Picaresque Pub Tipster, to our grey and romance- starved lives. Every time you pop into the pub for a swift one, a wizened man in a cloth cap will instantly sidle up to you and quietly recommend Understains in the 2.30 at Kempton Park. Buoyed up by the swift one, you will head straight to Ladbrokes, where you will drop pounds 50 on a horse whose three legs and heart condition make it about as likely to win the 2.30 at Kempton Park as Alastair Sim himself. The favourite will charge home as expected, and poor Understains will end its days as new high-protein Doggo-Yum.
How can Ben Johnson possibly manage to top this? He obviously can't. But if he's next seen in public in a battered trilby, counting out fivers with Bernard Cribbins and Lionel Jeffries, I for one shan't be in the least surprised.

Deutscher has much to say about the color "blue": its presence or absence in a language or culture, its sister-color, "green" with which it combines as a single hue in some languages, and notes that it is the color most difficult for children to learn.
Did you know?
- Many languages do not have separate terms for blue and green; when linguists discuss this combined color they refer to it as grue.
- Vietnamese, Thai and Korean have one word for green and blue; as do the Pashtun people of Afghanistan and N.W. Pakistan.
- Japanese has a word for blue and green but the word for blue is often used for colors that English speakers would consider green such as traffic lights and unripe fruit.
- In traditional Celtic languages such as Welsh, the word glas could refer to blue but also some shades of green and grey
- Ancient Greek lacked a word for blue (other than kyanos, the root of cyan, which was used to describe dark blue enamel), thus Homer referred to the sea ...

Storing your passwords properly
Security Blanket
High-performance graphics cards and proper storage can help keep your passwords secure.
Computer performance has come a long way in the past few years. Moore's law has continued moving forward; right now, you can easily find a high-end CPU with 6 to 12 cores for between a few hundred and a thousand dollars.
But what if you want to throw a couple hundred cores at a problem? You could buy a rack or two of equipment, or you could just spend a few hundred dollars on a video card. In fact, graphics cards are so good at certain types of computation that both NVidia and AMD now make specialized cards (the NVidia Tesla series and the AMD FireStream series) that have a ton of cores, several gigabytes of memory, and extremely fast interconnects.
