Hello, somewhat new to higher end audio. I currently own a pair of v-moda m-80's and would like to get a significant upgrade from those.
I really love my current headset and I bought them because from what I've read here, the m-80 is a very balanced headset that plays all music well. I would prefer to progress towards another well balanced headset but is open to other suggestions as well. The only thing is I require the headsets to be as good or better in terms of noise isolation. I don't KNOW but I think other people might be hearing my music on the subway when I turn up the volume so I think thats really the minimum isolation for a commuting headset.
Some info to the purchase:
-headphones around $500 but can be more if they are truly great value or great headphones
-minimum isolation has to match the v-moda m-80 (which isn't much I think)
-Will be used to commute
-most preferably good looking and stylish
-have an e11 Fiio amp (please let me know if it is sufficient for the headphones)
-Usually listen from iPod Nano and laptop
-most music is from iTunes which is around 250 to 320kpbs.
The music I listen to varies a lot:
-electronic progressive
-japanese jazz music
-swing/jazz music like Buble and Tony Bennett
-New age
-electric guitar
-old rock
-Lots of piano
-various instrumental music like harps, dark cello themes, chinese guzheng and synthetic stuff
Basically, only a small portion of my library actually has any lyrics. Even a lot of rock songs I get instrumental versions without the lyrics.
After reading about the higher end headphones, I became more confused. It seems like after the $300 range, I need to choose headphones for different music. I am also not familiar with a lot of the things being used to describe sound like cold treble vs warm treble or depth and width of sound stage.
After a bit of research, I found myself really liking the q701 and highly curious about the Grado RS 1i. Please help me find a good headset that will be sure to outperform my m-80's in all or at least the majority of music I will be listening to. Thanks!

Dead Lagoon is the fourth of his thrillers starring the Venetian detective Aurelio Zen. In it, Dibdin tells a rollicking good tale that you want both to read fast, because of its gripping storyline, and to linger over, to savour the evocative descriptions of place and mood. His setting - the Dead Lagoon of Zen's home city - is more than a locus delicti. Rather, it is the location for a vivid and authentic account of the shockwaves and eddies caused by the massive upheavals Italy is currently undergoing. It is a sad indictment of the shortcomings of journalists that no newspaper articles have captured so poignantly the uncertainties of the country in transition.
Dibdin is our most perspicacious observer of Italian mores. He does not use Italy merely as a backdrop, but exploits his stories as a vehicle to convey his pictures of the contemporary scene. Whether adumbrating the archetypal relationship of Zen and his ageing mother, or the moral cowardice (or political astuteness, depending on your outlook) of senior civil servants, he describes human interaction which is characteristically Italian.
Zen goes back to Venice to investigate the disappearance of a wealthy American businessman. It is not a police job - or at least, he is not officially on the case. Although he is a senior police officer in Rome, he has agreed to take on a freelance piece of private sleuthing for the lawyers of the deceased. He undertook this task partly as a favour to his ex, Ellen, but mainly to help obtain the wherewithal to set up Tania, his current 'Lover? Mistress? Partner? Part of the charm of their relationship was that it eluded definition.'
Our hero is not without a few human failings. He is not strictly venal - he showed in earlier tales that he could not be bought, but was prepared to bend the rules to make a bit on the side - and to have a bit on the side too, for faithfulness was not one of his strong suits either. At first he resisted Ellen's entreaties. 'It's strictly illegal for a state employee to engage in secondary paid employment,' he pompously declaimed. She understood him - and the system - too well. 'Oh, come on Aurelio. You guys only work mornings anyway. Plus the money could be paid into a Swiss bank account.'
Zen's search for the missing businessman leads to a complex tale of drugs smuggling, bent policemen, shady boat owners, and ambitious local politicians. From the opening scene, set on the cemetery island of the lagoon, we realise that life - and death - are never as they seem, and that truth is as at best an approximation, shrouded in shifting layers of mystery and deceit.
The political context provides an unsettling backdrop for this tale. Nor does Dibdin ignore the recent changes to the criminal justice system in Italy. The old order is in disarray, embroiled in corruption scandals. New, ominous political forces are at work to fill the vacuum. Fact and fiction are seamlessly joined. Real people have walk-on parts in this portrayal of a city where the local demagogue - his sensual wife, a childhood acquaintance, stirs Zen's loins - hopes to revive the Venetian republic. The centre has collapsed, he argues. Rome no longer holds sway. Power now lies on the periphery, in city states like Venice. The city should be seeking new alliances with the lands of its historic area of influence, in the old Venetian empire along the Dalmatian coast, in the ex-Yugoslavia.
Zen is unimpressed by this appeal. But in time he realises there is some truth in the idea that every Venetian, even one so deracinated as himself, has to be either with the new separatist political movement or against it: there is no other choice. It is a challenge by the new order to take sides. This is something which, in his past, Zen had tried to avoid, in order to survive the shifting alliances at the top which could, and frequently did, stifle investigations or block promising careers if an officer was not in some way beholden to certain political interests. As he prepares to leave the city to return to Rome, he argues that Venice is his city too. Yet he remains ambivalent. For he also realises that the new populist political culture is so alien to his way of thinking that he still feels a stranger there.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
SAP's announcement that it will invest over 2 billion euros into its IoT portfolio by the end of 2020 made headlines around the world, but it came as no surprise to those watching technology markets. The so-called Internet of Things (IoT) is a hot concept, but do you really know what it is?
People often confuse IoT with smart home products (Nest's thermostats, Amazon's Echo, the Phillips Hue lighting system, etc.). These form an element of IoT, but just one element. There are many additional subsets, from analytics to Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, from smart grids to wearables, and more. All of these mean something individually, but they also fall under the IoT umbrella.
There are many individual constituents of the IoT that together form a whole much greater than the sum of its parts -- and much greater than is generally communicated. After years of working with IoT devices and on IoT platforms -- and struggling to communicate effectively about what the IoT actually is -- I think it's time to rewrite the dated definitions to ensure we're all talking about the same concept.
Let's Start At The Beginning
Carnegie Mellon's Jason Hong gave the matter context when he explained that IoT "represents the third wave of computing. The first wave focused on computation — making the basics of computing work. The second wave centered on networking — connecting all of these computers together in a global network. The third wave, of which we are in the early stages, aims to make computers part of the physical world in which we live. Computation, communication and sensation are being woven into everyday objects, all of which contain, and indeed are, computers."
To explain the whole concept we could tour the history of computing, starting with mechanical calculation, telegraphy, stored memory and software. But for practical purposes, let's skip ahead past the advent of transistors and to the birth of the World Wide Web. For those interested in greater detail, The Computer History Museum offers excellent online exhibits tracing the development of computers from the 1930s onward. For technology scholars, I recommend Donald Knuth's exhaustive and evolving "The Art of Computer Programming."
Nearly 20 years ago, the first commercial examples of cellular machine-to-machine (M2M) applications began to arrive. The Internet of Things concept then emerged with the aim of using Internet Protocol (IP)-based networks to enable radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology and sensors to collect and transmit data without the need for human direction.
The IoT began evolving conceptually from the start, but now the ultimate IoT vision is of everything technologically enabled being able to connect and communicate in some meaningful way. The IoT now serves as a superset that includes M2M and almost everything else. Communication protocols proliferate, bandwidth opens up, the cloud grows more important, data gets bigger, power requirements get smaller, analytics advance, there's an app and an API for everything, and machines 'learn.' All of this feeds the IoT, which is really just the amorphous technological connective tissue for the whole shebang of modern computing. The IoT isn't a revolution so much as the evolution of computing.

Google Travel exec details changing consumer behavior
If you want to dig for new information about consumer behavior in travel and beyond it, Google's a good place to start.
Read moreAs Google is "rearranging" where traffic flows, providing more space for its own Google products to the detriment of others, Priceline sees its Kayak acquisition to reduce dependence on Google.
Priceline's pending $1.8 billion acquisition of Kayak amounts, in part, to some Google insurance for Priceline.
Priceline is one of Google's largest search engine marketing customers, and Priceline CEO Jeffery Boyd, speaking at the PhoCusWright conference November 15, stated the obvious when he pointed out that Google is a "very important" channel to the online travel agency.
In fact, Priceline shelled out $375.2 million for online advertising in the third quarter, and another $52.9 million for sales and marketing.

I built this mostly out of stuff I found at an abandoned hockey rink. Notice the awesome PC STEREO speakers...I will be rockin' some serious internet songs! I hooked up my friend's Macbook air DVD drive, but the only CD ROM I have right now is for free AOL, which I don't think will run on the Ipad. Will it? Also, most of the cables don't really do anything, but they give it that cool Apple style futuristic look! Yeah! The screen guard and hood came from my aunt's Brother Word Processor. No glare, no fingerprints, and it flips out of the way if you need to touch the screen of the Ipad, which I do every few seconds. Trying to come up with a rubber band quick release system... on to the pic!
How long does it take you to mount the ipad in that rig? It kinda defeats the portability. But cool nonetheless.
excuse me but I have sold well over 6 of those tshirts. ok more like 4, minus one return, but whateva, they are gonna sell like crazy!
I believe now is the moment for OP to make his "lol i troll u post....though hopefully with better grammar than traditional trolls. Either way, well played OP, got a bit of a chuckle out of this.
I was hoping the crappy shirts was just sarcasm but when i clicked i found out that they are truly crappy shirts!
This thread has made my day I laughed so hard at that. I may actually buy one of those shirts just to be awesome like the OP!
LOL MR never ceases to please My favorite part is that after a page of responses some people still don't get it! Hilarious!!

The Most Hated Women in Hollywood
Fame includes some major disadvantages. It's a value the greater part of us are so totally unconscious of, so shielded from and free from that we have no clue. We accept it must be outright peaches and cream to have a large number of dollars in the bank, to have any man or lady we need and to be a standout amongst the most famous people on the planet. Be that as it may, with Fame comes a great deal of cynicism. You lose all feeling of security for yourself and your family. Nothing is yours any longer, and you are all of a sudden public property. You may know this going into acting or singing or some different well known profession path, however you don't understand exactly how harmful the hatred and the feedback is until it's originating from millions of people at once and not simply your envious ex-bestie or your spouse's long-back ex. The judgment is ghastly, whether it's merited or not. All things considered, read on to figure out which 20 Hollywood ladies are probably the most hated on the planet, and who deal with some of the most terrible treatment on the planet.

I used to call on Dahlgren Naval Surface Weapons station on the banks of the Potomac. They had 16" guns mounted on land which they occasionally test fired.
Their shooting range was 50 miles of the Potomac, downstream from DC. I thought there were better targets, but I was not in charge.
Eventually they stopped firing them altogether as the buildings nearby were being shaken apart by the forces unleashed when the guns fired.
That, and it is an extremely dangerous business.
But I think I have missed the point of this post, which, no doubt, has to do with Romney's running mate.Thanks for sharing this wonderful stuff. I am really impressed with these works. Thanks for taking time to post this one. I appreciate it.

How to Survive the Harlem Shake Meme (Now with Air-Humpers)
Dear Internet Friends,
Please do not post one more damn video of you, your dog or your grandmother doing the Harlem Shake. You've spammed my Facebook with videos of you shaking your goods in a Power Ranger costume, holding some sort of very phallic pool noodle.
We shouldn't know each other that well.
I'm not saying it wasn't fun while it lasted, but this gyrating affair needs to come to an end before we're both bitter.

When you first busted in on my screen and offered me an escape from productivity at work, I'll admit that I bit. I was interested in the goods. Your carefree style offered me a brief reprieve from my cube, and I was tempted to jump in on your impromptu dance party.
The second time you peeped over at me from the screen, trying to lure me into your web with your promises, it bordered on slightly moronic. Seen one video of dudes mimicking a seizure, seen 'em all.
By the fifth video, I was tempted to take baseball bat to my monitor to make it stop.
And now, because interwebs likes to hijack shit and beat it to death with a hammer, the Harlem Shake is currently at about 63,000 videos on YouTube, which means you didn't get my "stop this shit, it's killing my brain" memo or anyone else's.
I'm going to lay it all out for you. When Ryan Seacrest is hopping on your meme, it's time to shut things the fuck down. Plus, seriously, if you're dressed like a giant chicken or an alien and documenting your suburban white-boy dance moves for all to see, I'm going to try to put a 5150 hold on your ass just to make it stop. It's for your own good.
However, being the realist that I am, I realize that despite my whining, this so-called dance isn't going anywhere for a long while, because those 62,000 videos will somehow keep multiplying like Gremlins. Being the Mother Teresa of the Internet that I am, I've spent the latter part of my morning finding a way to make those reproductions tolerable.
Here's what I've come up with, so listen up. I'm about to change your life. I've developed a new game that I like to call the "Where's Waldo, Air-Hump Style." See, when you throw a bunch of uncoordinated folks in a room and instruct them to dance, at least one of them air-humps. It's a well-known fact, as evidenced at family holidays once grandma gets a couple of glasses of wine in her.
So instead of killing brain cells by watching all of the dumbasses try to wobble uncontrollably, you search the room for the dude who skates past everyone seeing his lack of coordination by air-humping the shit out of nothing at all.
His dance moves are simple. Swing forward, ease back. Everyone loves the air-hump dance. Sometimes they aim it at objects, sometimes at people, but generally it's just humping at the air.
It takes these epileptic videos to a whole new level of fun. Zero to 60 in one swift move of the air-hump. Air-humpin', savin' lives.
Can't find the air humper in this video?
Oh! There they are!
Too dumbfounded by the guy in the chicken suit?
Oh! The air humper IS the guy in the chicken suit! You fooled me!
I know, I know...
You're welcome.

Africa 19 Days 2 May 2017
Follow in the footsteps of Kings and Presidents when you travel on the famous Blue Train from the Jacaranda city of Pretoria travelling overnight...
Botswana is home to Africa's most richly populated wildlife areas, with an unsurpassed variety of animals. The country offers the best concentrated safari experiences, and due to its largely roadless wilderness areas lends itself to the fly-in safari. About the same size as France, the country's highlights are definitely in the remote wilderness areas including the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, Savute and the Kalahari. World Journeys offers fully serviced mobile camping safaris, walking safaris and luxury fly-in safaris staying in our favourite lodges. Botswana and Namibia are a perfect combination to create a Journey in Africa.
• Okavango Delta
• Chobe National Park
• Kalahari Desert
• Makgadikgadi Pans
• Linyanti National Park
The very best times for wildlife viewing in Botswana is between April and November, when the water levels are lower and birds, mammals and big game congregate around the water holes and channels to drink. Outside of this season, there are many good reasons to visit including the calving season of newborn animals during November and December, and for "twitchers" between January and March when the Okavango Delta comes alive with over 400 species of birds.
Botswana truly is one of my favourite destinations. There is something very special about the African bush that keeps calling me back. You are surrounded by nature but still in the lap of luxury.
Botswana is landlocked and bordered by 4 countries: Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia and South Africa. It not only offers the pristine waterways of the Delta but 70% of the country is the Kalahari Desert. Chobe National Park in the north is an ideal first stop, with prolific elephant viewing.
"I love a combination of both water and land based safari camps, this gives a great experience to view wildlife from both land and on the water. Gliding down "hippo alley" is an experience not to be missed! Days begin before even the birds have cleared their throats, they say the early bird catches the worm…well out here the early bird can witness the sometimes brutal "circle of life" re-enacted in front of your very eyes. Torn between wanting the prey to escape but not wanting the hunter to go hungry it's a brutal reality.
After a coffee and a Rusk at the Chobe under Canvas campsite, we hit the trails, in custom 4×4 with a raised view, we are no doubt a great help to the spotter on the front. The anticipation of not knowing what is around each corner keeps audiences attentive, and craning to spot something, 3 hours slips by and some wonderful game viewing, and we head back to camp to demolish a full cooked breakfast with everything imaginable. Afternoons are at leisure for perhaps a siesta or a good book, before the evening game drive. At night relaxing by the campfire, listening to the bush come alive, dinner is prepared and served on the whitest linen covered tables. With three courses that would rival many restaurants it is in stark contrast to the dusty surroundings and rustic means from which these delicious meals are created.
The night sky is a tapestry of stars not seen in our normal city dwellings but still vaguely recognised, star gazing being a secret passion of mine. A perfect way to end a perfect day, as you gaze out under the African night sky with a glass of something in your hand, re-living the day's events.
Currency Botswanan Pula (BWP)
Language Setswana is the national language of Botswana, while English is the official language.
Why we love it Botswana has a fantastic contrast of arid to semi-arid desert covering much of the country – the Kalahari, and the incredible watery lagoons and labyrinths of the Okavango Delta which is in itself one of, if not the top highlight of any visit to Africa. The Kalahari and its salt pans including Makgadikgadi and Nxai, offers visitors game viewing (including specific desert species such as the meerkat), endless vistas and starry skies, opportunities to learn about the San culture and activities such as quad biking. In the Delta on the other hand, you can be taken on mokoro trips (dug out local canoe) with your guides, and enjoy game viewing by vehicle, boat and on foot. There is so much to explore in this watery paradise and it is well known for its numbers of predators and its high numbers of bird species. Travel around Botswana is most often by light aircraft and this in itself affords the most incredible views over the channels of the Delta. Chobe National Park is also situated in Botswana and is the home of the largest concentration of elephants in Africa. Botswana also combines very well with a visit to Victoria Falls and other game viewing in Zambia.
Weather Summer is from November to the end of March and is also the rainy season. The winter season begins in May and ends in August. This is also the dry season when virtually no rainfall occurs. Winter days are invariably sunny and cool to warm. The best time to visit the Okavango Delta is from June – October but travelling in the in-between periods of April/May or November is often recommended as it is outside of the "high" and more expensive season.
Social customs & quirks Botswana was originally a protectorate of the British crown, known as Bechuanaland, and became independent in 1966 after which diamonds were discovered. The majority of peoples in Botswana are either of Khoisan or Bantu descent, which include other tribes within these. The San or "Bushmen" people for example, under the Khoisan group, are well documented and believed to be the race to which any person can trace their genetic heritage. While on safari you will find many of the staff at camp are local Botswanan and extremely proud to be sharing your experience of their country with you.
Festivals & events Maitisong Festival – April. For nine days each April the Matisong Festival takes place in many venues around Botswana's capital city, Gaborone. There's theatre, traditional music and dance, marimba bands, choirs and a range of more western-influenced styles of dance and music.

In a recent update and clean up of a Civil 3D template for a client, I ran into an issue with the Grading configuration.
The issue:
Looking at the Grading collection (from Settings tab of the Toolspace) there were Grading Criteria Sets and individual Criteria that are duplicates with a dot and number (.#) as prefixes. Even in a clean and empty drawing, you will not be able to erase them. If you attempt this, you might find yourself in an unexpected software crash, regardless of the Service Pack.

Sylvester Ritter (December 13, 1952 – June 2, 1998)[2] was an American professional wrestler and college football player, best known for his work in Mid-South Wrestling and the World Wrestling Federation as the Junkyard Dog (or JYD for short), a nickname Ritter received while working in a wrecking yard.[3][4]
Entering the ring with his trademark chain attached to a dog collar,[5] to the music of Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust," JYD regularly headlined cards that drew large crowds and regularly sold out the Louisiana Superdome and other major venues, becoming "the first black wrestler to be made the undisputed top star of his promotion".[6]
JYD was one of the most electrifying and charismatic wrestlers in the country, particularly during his peak in the early 1980s. JYD was most known for his head butt and upper-body strength, the latter of which saw him regularly body slam such large wrestlers as the One Man Gang, Kamala, and King Kong Bundy. The word "thump," which referred to JYD's power slam, was prominently displayed on his wrestling trunks.
College football
Ritter played football at Fayetteville State University,[2] twice earning honorable mention All-American status, and is a member of The Sports Hall Of Fame. He graduated with a political science degree.
Professional wrestling career
Ritter debuted in the Tennessee territory, working for promoter Jerry Jarrett, before moving to Nick Gulas's company and using the ring name Leroy Rochester. From there he moved to Stu Hart's Stampede Wrestling as Big Daddy Ritter, where he captured the North American Heavyweight Championship twice.
Universal Wrestling Federation
In the early 1980s Ritter moved to Mid-South Wrestling, where booker "Cowboy" Bill Watts gave him the name and gimmick Junkyard Dog, as he would wear a long chain attached to a dog collar, and white boots. He originally came to the ring pushing a cart filled with junk called the "junk wagon" and lost most of his early matches before his character caught on and became the top face in the company. While on top he feuded with some of the top heels in the company, including a now infamous angle with the Fabulous Freebirds where they blinded him with hair cream. At the peak of the feud JYD's wife gave birth to their first child, which was made part of the storyline. It was explained that JYD could not see his new daughter, something that increased the heat on the Freebirds to the point where they needed police escorts in and out of arenas. The feud ended with the still-blinded JYD and Freebird leader Michael "P.S." Hayes wrestling in a dog collar match.
Other notable feuds involved Ernie Ladd, Ted DiBiase, Kamala, King Kong Bundy, and "The Natural" Butch Reed. The feud with DiBiase was particularly notable as DiBiase, once JYD's friend and tag-team partner, turned heel and subsequently won a loser-leaves-town match against JYD with the help of the loaded glove, which was a DiBiase calling card, forcing JYD to leave town for an extended period of time. A masked man physically resembling JYD, known as Stagger Lee, subsequently appeared in the region and began to defeat the competition, one by one, including DiBiase. Though DiBiase and the other heels strongly suspected that Stagger Lee was in fact JYD, they were unable to unmask him to prove their suspicions. Stagger Lee disappeared once the loser-leave-town clause in the JYD-DiBiase match had expired, and JYD returned and reclaimed the North American Heavyweight Championship. The feud with Reed was notable in that Reed, a protégé of JYD, had turned heel. Reed with the help of Buddy Landell attacked the Dog many times.On a couple of occasions, they covered the Dog in chicken feathers. The two had a series of matches, many of were bouts for the prized North American Heavyweight Championship. These matches were also notable for their brutality, which included "ghetto street fights," "dog-collar matches," two-out-of-three pin-fall matches and steel-cage matches. JYD was lured to the WWF at the peak of the feud with Reed.
World Wrestling Federation (1984–1988)
In the summer of 1984, Ritter left Mid-South for the World Wrestling Federation, where he was still an over face. JYD would debut on a Georgia Championship Wrestling taping held at the Kiel Auditorium on August 10, 1984 when he defeated Max Blue.[7] While in the WWF, JYD made a habit of interacting with the growing number of young people in attendance, often bringing them into the ring after matches and dancing with them. Ritter won The Wrestling Classic tournament by defeating Randy Savage by countout in the finals, as well as beating Moondog Spot and The Iron Sheik in earlier rounds. The tournament is often cited as the first-ever WWF pay-per-view. JYD's his most notable feuds in the company came against King Harley Race, the Funk Brothers, Adrian Adonis, Greg "The Hammer" Valentine and "Outlaw" Ron Bass before he left the company in October 1988.
World Championship Wrestling (1988–1993)
Ritter would make his debut for the National Wrestling Alliance on December 7, 1988 at the Clash of the Champions IV. He would appear during an altercation between The Russian Assassins and Ivan Koloff, saving the latter. His first match came shortly after in a television taping in Atlanta against Trent Knight. JYD finished the year winning a $50,000 bunkhouse battle royal on December 26, which was held as a dark match after Starrcade '88 went off the air. He spent the first few months of 1989 teaming with Ivan Koloff and then Michael Hayes against The Russian Assassins.[8] On April 2, 1989 JYD defeated Butch Reed at Clash of the Champions VI in New Orleans. Before the match he was accompanied to the ring by a jazz band.
JYD began a main event run in May 1990. On May 20 he defeated Mean Mark Callous (Undertaker) in 39 seconds.[9] He quickly became embroiled in a feud with Ric Flair for the World Heavyweight Championship. After gaining disqualification and non-title victories in house show matches, JYD would give Flair a televised defeat by DQ on June 13 at Clash of the Champions XI. JYD would then be part of the short-lived Dudes with Attitudes faction along with Sting, Paul Orndorff, and El Gigante. In the fall he would feud with Television Champion Arn Anderson, defeating him in non-title matches in less than 10 seconds on three house shows in September.[9] He would finish the year defeating Moondog Rex, The Iron Sheik, and Bill Irwin on the house show circuit.
On February 17, 1991 he would win his first WCW title, teaming with Ricky Morton and Tommy Rich to defeat Dr Z (Randy Culley), Dutch Mantell, and Buddy Landell and gain the WCW Six-Man Tag-Team Championship. He also began a short feud that month with The Master Blaster (Kevin Nash), winning each encounter.[10] JYD would hold the title until June 3, when they were defeated by The Freebirds in Birmingham, Alabama.[10] He would then leave the promotion in August.
After dropping a significant amount of weight to improve his conditioning, Junkyard Dog returned on February 29, 1992 at SuperBrawl II. During a segment where Abdullah the Butcher was attacking Ron Simmons, JYD came out of the crowd to make the save. He found himself wrestling in tag-team matches with Ron Simmons, Barry Windham, or Big Josh for the next few months.[11] In April and again in June, JYD would face former Six-Man Championship partner Ricky Morton, defeating him on each occasion. He also formed another tag-team, this time with The Big Cat. They would feud with The Vegas Connection (Dallas Page & Vinnie Vegas) the rest of the summer. In April 1993 he formed a new tag-team with Jim Neidhart and began a feud with Dick Slater and Paul Orndorff that would last the next few months. After defeating Slater on July 28, 1993 he left the promotion.[12]
Ritter died on June 2, 1998, in a single-car accident on Interstate 20 near Forest, Mississippi, as he was returning home from his daughter LaToya's high school graduation in Wadesboro, North Carolina.[2] The apparent cause was falling asleep at the wheel. Ritter's body was laid in an unmarked grave at Westview Memorial Park in Wadesboro, North Carolina, however a marker was placed at his grave by November 2012.[13] Ritter had stayed active in professional wrestling until the time of his death, appearing at Extreme Championship Wrestling's 1998 Wrestlepalooza event, just one month prior. He was the founder of the Dog Pound stable in independent Mid-South promotion, based in southern Louisiana. Among Ritter's last contributions to professional wrestling was the training of former WWF wrestlers Rodney Mack and Jazz. His daughter, LaToya Ritter and his sister Christine Woodburn, represented JYD as he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame at a ceremony held on March 13, 2004 by Ernie Ladd, the day before WrestleMania XX. LaToya died on October 19, 2011. While talking on the phone to a friend, there was a loud thudding sound and the friend called family members to go check on her because she thought LaToya fell down the stairs. Her brother went to check only to find her unresponsive and called 9-1-1. Paramedics were unable to revive her. She was 31 years old.[14]

Lemonade Stand
Digital Marketing For Home Services
or call (877) 395-2351
See how we helped a 40 million dollar home services company dominate the entire Southern California region.
RighTime Home Services Case Study
RighTime Home Services is one of the nation's largest home services companies with nearly $40 million in revenue and providing coverage for millions of homes in Southern California. What sets the company apart in both service and in the challenge for its marketing team is that it offers customers with three separate service categories simultaneously: HVAC, electrical, & plumbing.
Unparalleled transparency & digital marketing support to one of the nation's largest home services companies.
RighTime had already entrenched itself as a leading provider within the region, but had contracted multiple web consultants to manage their website and search marketing campaigns. The consultants had siloed each campaign, office location, service, and marketing medium, creating a disconnected brand and poor user experience. In addition, RighTime was interested in increasing call volume, but the cost per lead had become inefficient and unscalable.
We quickly made the decision to create consistency within the brand's digital presence. We immediately recognized the opportunity to consolidate the brand's multiple websites into one domain which would immediately create a cohesive online brand, boost the company's search engine optimization, and drive the domain up on SERP's. It also gave us the opportunity to re-design the website and upgrade the UXI to allow customers to easily find which RighTime location serviced their residence.
The Strategy
In the next step, we worked to begin building the company's online & search presence. In addition to launching a new, responsive website design, we consolidated, optimized, and branded all social media profiles for the company to immediately engage current customers and instill confidence to future customers.
Optimized Online Presence
"Hands down the VERY BEST internet marketing service specialists out there! I have worked hand in hand with Lemonade Stand for our organization, RighTime Home Services, for over a year now and let me just say, we have been more than pleased with the level of results they have achieved for us! We have tried other companies but none have compared to the level of service we have received.
Lemonade Stand has increased our traffic multiple times over, moved our SEM & SEO campaigns in top spots, and even produced graphics and videos promoting our services. These guys are so great we don't consider them a vendor anymore but an extension of our company. They treat our business as if it's their very own and because of their high level of urgency and attention to detail we recommend them to everyone! When doing business with Lemonade Stand you cant lose!"
Media Production
- Melissa Cisneros, RighTime Home Services
We then then shot, edited, and produced image films for the company to help build customer loyalty and company reputation. These image films proved to be so successful that they would be used in multiple ways including PPC landing pages, social promotions, and even TV commercials.
When we took over the Paid Search Campaigns...
We gave Rightime Home Services something that they had not been accustomed to with previous vendors. Transparency.
When tasked with taking over the management of RighTime's PPC campaigns, we set out to drive a higher volume of traffic while optimizing cost per lead. We did this while being fully transparent on what was being spent, how it was being spent, and why it was being spent. RighTime's previous PPC Management hid their fee & ad spend within a nebulous "budget" & complicated jargon.
More Traffic,
Lower Cost Per Lead
The Payoff
PPC cost per lead reduced by 70%!
The re-designed and newly responsive website increased user satisfaction significantly, evident by the 5% drop in bounce rate and an increase of 49 seconds in average time spent on the site.
One of the image films was edited & formatted for television use and broadcasted in 15 & 30 second commercial spots.
The main landing page for the company saw a 1,707% increase in website traffic from May 2014 to June 2014.
Average monthly online-generated call volume increased 1,489%.

Advantage of the place is that it is 100% vegetarian. The matter is that there is a high risk of opisthorchiasis invasion in this region if you eat in restaurants where fish is served, even if you eat only vegan food there. So this place is a kind of guaranteed parasites free oasis in Omsk.
There are some drawbacks:
Most of the dishes are not vegan.
Some food is pretty fatty.
It is self-service restaurant. That means if you come in the evening you get food that was cooked hours before - not very fresh and usually microwave oven heated or cold.
But service is is getting better gradually. And food quality also. In Govinda we trust. :)

Review written by Adrian Magson
Adrian Magson is the author of 20 crime and spy thrillers, including the Harry Tate series, the Lucas Rocco series and the Marc Portman series. His latest books are 'The Locker' (Midnight Ink - Feb 2016) the first in a new thriller series, and 'Hard Cover' (Severn House - March 2016), the third of his Marc Portman novels.
Hard-bitten tough guy Clyde Barr has been absent overseas for 16 years fighting other people's wars. On his return home to the US, he receives a frantic call from his sister, Jen. She is being held hostage and in fear of her life. Unfortunately, the line goes dead before she can tell him where she is or who is holding her.
Clyde and Jen – along with his two other sisters – have a chequered relationship going back all the way to childhood. Like Barr, Jen was always a wild child and looking for the next challenge, and he's worried at what trouble she may have gotten involved in.
Reaching out to a friend from a long way back, Barr finds out where Jen was last seen, and discovers that she is involved with a man named Lance Alvis, a big-time drug producer and dealer with an operation deep in the back country of Colorado.
Getting anywhere near Alvis if going to be hard, as he is constantly surrounded by gunmen who will shoot on sight rather than ask questions. But Barr has no choice; there is too much history behind him and Jen and he wants to make amends.
With a cute but tough bartender named Allie willing to help out, Barr sets off to penetrate the Alvis camp and rescue Jen, piling up the bodies along the way.
Compared by some to Jack Reacher for his hard man willing to help out others in distress, Clyde Barr has the same no-nonsense approach to anybody standing in his way; if they try to stop him, he'll drop them where they stand. But, as he already knows from previous experiences, where violence is concerned, there's inevitably a price to pay; and the cost to Barr is likely to be high.
Best read in one hit to match the furious pace of tension and eyeball-to-eyeball face-offs, this is a relentless journey of anger, revenge and released guilt in equal measure, where the main protagonist is willing to go down fighting for what he believes is right.

"You can't tell me one athlete that hasn't had a slump, whether it be a hitting slump, a shooting slump or whatever," Rucker said. "It's just that last season wasn't the best year. But it gives me motivation to come back strong this year. I'm coming in this year looking at it as starting with a clean slate."
It wasn't that Rucker was horrible season in 2004.
He still had 23 quarterback hurries - second most in the career - and 65 tackles and was a solid contributor during the second half of last season.
But for one reason or another, Rucker struggled with putting the quarterback on his back.
"A quarterback can come out of his step and fall down and cats are diving for him and you might not got him before someone else," Rucker said. "You might have been a hair off. Does that mean you're not a good football player? Does that mean you're not doing other things good? No."
Although Rucker has been around long enough to know that sacks aren't everything when it comes to being a valuable defensive end, it still became a source of irritation answering questions about his dwindling sack total.
It quickly turned into a long season when two-time All-Pro Kris Jenkins went on injured reserve four weeks into the season, meaning Rucker had to fend off even more double teams.
It wasn't until Dec. 5 that Rucker got his first full sack of the season. But he finished strong with three sacks in the final five games.
"I think Mike was a little bit like our team as a whole," Panthers head coach John Fox said. "We started slow and finished better.
"Some of that was due to injuries and some of the people who were in the game. But at the end of the day I think it was a learning experience for Mike Rucker and I know he's going about his business at a high level this season. I'm anxious to see how he performs this season."
Rucker, 30, is still working at his familiar spot at right defensive end, opposite Julius Peppers, a player many believe will become the league's premier pass rusher.
Conventional wisdom would suggest that Rucker should be more productive this season with Jenkins returning to the lineup.
Rucker also said he hasn't had anymore problems with an irregular heartbeat, something he endured midway through last season that forced trainers to remove him early from two different games.
There's never been a real solid explanation for the problem -- at least publicly - but Rucker doesn't seem worried he'll have any more heart problems.
"We haven't had any problems with it, so we haven't thought any more about it. We're good," Rucker said.

BYRON, Minn. (AP) A benefit in honor of a southeastern Minnesota teenager killed in a traffic crash has been expanded to help her family who this week lost its furniture business in a fire.
The May 5th benefit was organized to raise money for a scholarship in the name of Deej Logan, a 17-year-old killed on the first day of her senior year at Byron High School last September. The scholarship is to be awarded at her classmates' graduation this spring.
On Tuesday, fire destroyed Logan's Furniture, north of Byron. The family business sold hand-made furniture. Fire officials say the building and equipment is a total loss.
Benefit organizer Bob Eustice says the Logan family is devastated, both emotionally and financially. He says the fundraiser will now be in honor of DJ and in support of her family.

Topic tags/keywords: question tip I have experience with LN, veritas, stanley current generation planes and a very old craftsman blade. Of course the LN and veritas blades give amazing results when compared to the cheaper makers. I have read a couple times that there are some other makers that specialize in blades and that they are superior in performance. What brands are out there and what experience have you had with them. Are they truly better that LN and Veritas or is it only marginal improvement after that? I am always looking for better performance from my planes. Thanks |

The blades that are out there are hock, pinnacle, japanese blue steel blades, clifton, lee valley makes a blade too. All are great blades if you got one of the old stanley's or record planes as far as LN and veritas goes those blades can be changed but to nothing better than what they come with IMHO. I upgraded most of my stanley's and record planes with hock and pinnacle blades they are both saweeeeeet blades when put in a well tuned plane. -- Ike, Big Daddies Woodshop, http://firstname.lastname@example.com |

Thanks Ike I was doing some research and there seems to be some hype around a CPM 10V steel that is supposed to hold an edge 5 times better than A2 steel which is what LN and Veritas use so I was wondering if anyone out there knows anything about this? |
#3 posted 04-02-2011 10:24 PM |
CPM 10V is a steel made from powdered metal (CPM=cucible partical metal) with a high content of vanadiun. Its claim to fame is combining toughness and abrasion resistance. I can see this being a great blade for a chisel where you need the toughness, but I wonder if it's cost effective for a plane blade. I don't know from personal experience as I have never tried this product, but I speak from knowledge of metals and casting which is a field in which I have worked for 40 years. In general, powdered metal products allow the manufacturer to combine metals that normally could not be combined in the molten state. Kinda like being able to mix oil and water. You can mix a metal that normally has extreme hardness but is brittle as glass with a metal that is extremely tough, but not very hard and come up with a material that has both properties. |
#4 posted 04-02-2011 10:56 PM |
I personally am sold on Hock O1 plane blades. I have them on my old Stanley planes. These hold an edge very well and since I typically hone my blades before I use them really do not see the need to use a tougher steel. This is not the case with my chisels, A2 all the way. -- Marc |

check out robcosman.com see some of his sharpening methods and ideas on blades. worth the look. all the best! -- Randy "You are judged as much by the questions you ask as the answers you give..." |

The Hock blades work well in the Groz (Record replica) planes as well… -- My workshop blog can be found at http://daves-workshop.blogspot.com, YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoa-AgyeFWqnQfGIJwdzkog |

I was told by someone who likely knows that putting a Hock plade in my old #4 will require a little file work to open the mouth. Is that the case 'cuz I'd like to try one without "violating" my plane? |
#8 posted 04-03-2011 04:22 AM |
I've got a Hock in my Old No 4 and it required no extra work on the mouth. I am happy with the blade and would buy from Hock again. -- Galootish log blog, http://www.timberframe-tools.com |

#19252 closed Bug (fixed)
Install from wheel package
Reported by: | Owned by: | nobody | |
Component: | Packaging | Version: | master |
Severity: | Release blocker | Keywords: | |
Cc: | Florian Apolloner | Triage Stage: | Accepted |
Has patch: | yes | Needs documentation: | no |

Easy pickings: | no | UI/UX: | no |
On Mac OS, pip wheel
builds a Django wheel which installs cleanly. On Linux, it builds a wheel which (correctly) marks data files as such, and they get installed outside the django
package. This doesn't happen on Mac OS since setup.py
tricks distutils into handling data files as purelib files.
This little patch extends the setup.py
hack to kick in when building wheels regardless of platform: https://gist.github.com/4018017. The osx_install_data
should probably be renamed though.

The wheel format isn't accepted yet (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0427/) and there is currently no such feature in pip. Closing as invalid as it's basically not a problem we should try to fix.
comment:5 Changed 4 years ago by
This bug is exactly the same thing that happens, and is currently compensated for, when building bdist_wininst installers. This should be a hint that data files are a problem.
Why not fix it for everyone by disusing the data files feature of distutils, regardless of sys.argv?
comment:6 Changed 4 years ago by
Resolution: | invalid |
Severity: | Release blocker → Normal |
Status: | closed → new |
The wheel PEP is now accepted, and pip will soon have support AFAIK.
Regardless, comment 5 is correct that we jump through way too many hoops in our setup.py in order to try to trick distutils into handling data_files
as if they were package_data
, and that is the root cause of this bug. Instead we should just use package_data
and solve the problem properly.
I don't believe this is a 1.5 release blocker, though, so re-setting the severity to Normal.
comment:7 Changed 4 years ago by
Severity: | Normal → Release blocker |
I'd like to start distributing Django as a wheel for 1.6, so I'm re-marking this as a release blocker. As we get closer to 1.6 we can revisit whether the ecosystem is "ready" and perhaps punt, but making this a blocker now means we won't just forget.

comment:9 Changed 4 years ago by
FWIW our resolution of data-files is borked currently: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/setup.py#L72
This results in: django/conf/project_template beeing data and django/conf/project_template/project_name beeing a package. As such a wheel install currently puts manage.py somehwere else and startproject doesn't collect all files…
So the whole setup.py needs a bit more rework.

Building wheels is possible via:
pip wheel .
(Assuming pip 1.4). python setup.py bdist_wheel doesn't work since we don't use setuptools in setup.py, but that's fine.

I've come to the conclusion that, at heart, we all want to be only children. Deep inside each of us wants the full attention of our mother, father, God and anyone else we consider important in our lives. We don't want to share that attention with others. I suspect we're convinced that if we do, there won't be enough love, gifts, time, etc. to go around.
Two weeks with grandchildren now have reinforced that view. These particular grands are both boys, just 17 months apart in age, 5 and 3 1/2. They generally play together well, and there are those special moments when clearly the older one is looking out for the younger one.
However, they behave the best when by themselves having the full attention of parents or grandparents who are also doing exactly what the child wants done. They behave the worst when competing for the attention of the big people in their lives. And while they do have much fun together, they also pick on each other, and know very well how best to irritate and infuriate each other and get the other in trouble.
Those moments when they get that coveted undivided attention of parents also often lead to more discord between the siblings later--they seem to need to compare and boast about those attentions and see if they can spur jealousy on the part of the other.
Essentially, they are adorable little narcissists, just like most adults I know.
I wonder if this need to be only children--and I think it is universal--is the source is much of the religious conflict that seems to have characterized much of the world for known history. We will not wrap our minds around the idea that God might deal differently with different members of the human family. The negative implications of this only child syndrome lead to intense watchfulness to see if someone else might receive more favors, more attention, more perceived blessing than we ourselves may be experiencing.
As do children, we observe carefully to see if the cake is divided perfectly evenly--and if it is not, we grab for the biggest piece ourselves. As do children, we are quick to scream "It's not fair!" when it looks like a sibling is getting special privilege--or we are getting special discipline.
Children have great difficulty with the concept that parents can love all fully, but may have to treat each differently. But anyone with more than one child knows that each successive child in the family actually has different parents, because the parents themselves will have changed by what they have learned and by the different personalities of the children themselves.
We carry that difficulty to adulthood. We don't come easily to the idea that God might relate differently to different parts of the created world and and yet God still has profound love for us. These differences in relating do not change the essential nature of God or the nature of the redemptive process. It's just individual from person to person.
Somewhere deep inside most of us lingers a huge fear that we are going to get left out. And the best way to keep from getting left out is to knock down everyone else so we are the only one left. The only child, the one who gets all the attention.
How sad that we can't seem to be get past this and instead be willing and active participants in the process of seeing God's will done on earth as well as in heaven.

I really loved this article. Guess it is because I deal with children who want to be the only child in my classroom. I have to treat each with their own education program. Not an easy task when all have serious needs both educationally and emotionally as well.
I'm thinking that we all need to remember that while we can't always spread ourselves equally to everyone, that God is capable of giving each of us the love and care that we need and his love is without bounds.
Thankfully, while I'm not very good at giving everyone what they need, God is perfect at it and he makes up for what I can't do and gives me the ability to do the impossible. - 7:11 PM

While sorting out my art supplies for our Artists' Garage Sale coming up soon, I came across some Martha Stewart paints I won in an online giveaway. Included were four colors of Glow in the Dark Fluorescent Paint, like this one:
I haven't a clue as to what to use them for. I'm not really a fluorescent kind of gal. The obvious answer is something for Halloween. I'm not really a Halloween kind of gal either. But I can be convinced of almost anything.
So ... give me some ideas for what kind of projects I can use these paints for. If I get some really good ones, I may just pick someone from the responses to receive a special little package from me. Is your thinking cap on? Go for it!

(This article belongs to the Special Issue Nanofibres: Friend or Foe?)
Carbon nanotube (CNT)/polymer nanocomposites have superior properties compared to the neat polymer matrix. They now are widely used in industry, but questions have been raised about the risks of such materials since CNTs can be toxic when inhaled. For a risk assessment of CNT nanocomposites, it is crucial to know whether CNTs from nanocomposites can be released into the environment or if they remain embedded in the matrix. This review article summarizes the studies that investigated the release of CNTs from nanocomposites during the service life. Three scenarios are reviewed, the release of particles due to mechanical impact, the release due to weathering processes, and the release due to fire. A release during composite production and disposal is not incorporated. View Full-TextKeywords:
