And Natalie Maines is cute. Not hot, but cute. Kinda like a younger sister, or something. The other two look like retarded cheerleaders from outtakes from Deliverance.
That's my jacket!
she can sing.. and she is doable.
the sisters look cross-eyed. so which is worse?

Holy carp! A smo sighting!
I always thought Natalie Maines was the best looking of the bunch, but she gained official "hot" status during her apperance on the Howard Stern show, particularly the portion about her downtown hairstyle.Originally Posted by Chux
It's a blacked-out blur but I'm pretty sure it ruled.
I think she's doable in a Fiona as Mrs. Shrek way....if you're into green....I'm not judging...
She's a troll................with two cross-eyed elfs (not Elves, I can't disrespect J.R.) as back-up...it's like a freaking commercial for Keebler cookies watching that group....
Did anyone else **** themselves when Chuxter made a linear progression from Maines=cute sister to Deliverance?
For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is.

Oh the Hora!
Trip Start
Aug 20, 2011
Trip End
Oct 29, 2011
Last night I acquired two new room mates, and another one today. That's all well and good except when I got out of the shower tonight, one of them was vomiting into a plastic bad by her bed, but I'm getting a head of myself.
It was another early morning, after a not so restful night's sleep. I wake up a lot. And the bed/bedding is perfectly comfortable, and it's not noisy here. Just got things going on I suppose. Anyway, bright and early I get up to make a sandwich for lunch and eat some breakfast. Both of those turned out to be breakfast. Then I headed out to the train station. I had such a good run at the local transport system yesterday I thought I would give a day trip a try (also, I was already planning on doing this today). The main train station here in Prague is large... very large. Now it might not seem that big to someone who lives where there is more than one train a day, but I don't. Thankfully many of the signs were also in English, so I eventually found my way and then I was off to Kutna Hora.
When I got off the train, armed with my notebook and then map that I had glued into it, I headed off walking to the first sight to see. My first stop was the Church of the Assumption of Our Lady (big name, big-ish church). It was a church, it was churchy. Lots of shrines and paintings and what-have-you. When I arrived outside, after taking a picture of the outside of the church, this man who has just arrived with a lady I'm assuming is his wife, tells me that they had just followed me, assuming that I knew where I was going (it's a small town and there are only two sights near the trains station). Apparently, he had thought that I was Asian, and therefore I must've known where I was going... not sure what he meant by that, that Asian people would be prepared?
After the church I headed over to the main reason people visit the town, the Sedlec Ossuary. It used to be a monastery, but was bought and redecorated in 1870. A local woodcarver used the bones of 40,000 people(from the crypt) to decorate the interior of the building. There are bones EVERYWHERE! The central chandelier is said to contain at least one (in some cases MANY) of each bone in the human body.
Once done there, I walked into town (~2-3km) and started poking around. It's a small town so in that sense it felt very different from Prague, but at the same time, it's incredibly touristy and I assume that everyone I see doesn't actually live there. I saw another church and some statues. I stuck my head into the mining museum (silver mining is the reason this town existed in the first place) but decided to keep going, I wasn't in the mood for a mining museum, even though I hear it's pretty good. I headed straight to the one remaining sight on my list, the Cathedral of Saint Barbara (the patron saint of miners, because it's a mining town, remember?). It looks pretty awesome for the outside, and inside is still pretty grand, but it was... churchy. I'm a little churched out apparently, which is fine with me. It had shrines, paintings, stained glass... pews, altar, etc.
Next I wanted to go see the old town walls (may as well) but the street I was going to take was under construction so I went a differently way. I went to see the stone fountain, but it was also having some work done to it. Then I proceeded to get lost for 20-30 minutes, and once I figured out where I was, decided that it was time to head back to the train station. Since it took a while to walk from the station at the beginning of the day, I took the one and only local bus line to the station.
Once back in Prague I decided it was time for me to climb the Old Town Hall Tower (after stopping for some water, it's so hot!) Since my guide book seems to like counting the steps in these towers, I was a little confused as to why it didn't mention it. Turns out a large portion of the tower was a ramp, so that solve that not-so-intriguing mystery. There was also and elevator, but I think that's cheating, so I only took it on the way down (because it looked kind of cool). The view was great, but the breeze! OH THE WONDERFUL BREEZE!
Once I left, I headed across Charles Bridge (which is insane that time of day, it's hot, it's crowded and it's full of stands and a few buskers. Think the Inner Harbour in Victoria only hotter, more crowded, and if you only wanted to get through to the other side) and back into the Lesser Quarter to find the John Lennon Wall. It's a wall of John Lennon inspired graffiti that is constantly being added too.
The final thing I did today was I headed over to ride the funicular up to Petrin Hill. The funicular is part of the local transit system so my 3-day pass worked for that as well. Unfortunately the person in front of me was the cut off for the funicular that arrives shortly after I got there, meaning I now had to wait inside for the next one. It was HOT in that station! After the funicular I walked up the Petrin Tower (a mini Eiffel tower up on a hill). Lonely Planet tells me that there are 299 steps, I only counnted 297, but I did lose track once and guessed... so maybe that doesn't count (while we are having fun counting steps, there are 73 from the ground floor of my hostel to my room, 88 if I start in the basement where the computers and kitchen is). Again I took pictures from somewhere high, but I soon came down as it's enclosed and the breeze isn't great up there. Then I walked for a bit through the trees, it was so nice and peaceful being all alone without the crowds. Then I sat. Yes I sat. I was tired (SO MUCH walking), there were benches (and there are NEVER benches when I want them) in the shade, with a breeze, an amazing view and very few people. I had no choice. The walk back to the hostel was longer than expected, and super crowded. A pistachio ice cream bar helped a little, but not enough for my tired feet. Back at the hostel I took a shower and then was greeted back in my room by that room mate I mentioned at the beginning. And there we are.

Stony Brook Wholehearted Foods makes this exceptional squash seed oil in their kitchen in upstate New York. They source all the seeds locally and they are roasted and pressed on site. Rich, buttery and a bit nutty, we think this oil deserves a permanent place in your home kitchen.
A terrific option wherever you would typically use olive oil. Perfect for roasting, grilling, or sauteing. Drizzle on fresh, herbed goat cheese crostini for a little extra depth. Adds depth to a lovely salad dressing.

Milk giant Amul will soon set up a dairy unit in Thane district of Maharashtra.
The first unit will come up in the Vasai area, Amul general manager K Ratnam said in Thane on Sunday.
The Rs 140-crore (Rs 1.4-billion) plant will collect around 10 lakh (1 million) litres of milk daily, Ratnam said while addressing a function organised by the Institute for Psychological Health at Thane.
Amul had sometime back set up a small unit at Rajgurunagar in
There is large scale production of milk in Vasai-Virar region and there are not many local dairies, he said, adding Amul will have a lot of opportunities there.
Amul, the dairy cooperative based in Anand district of Gujarat, is not just a brand but a movement that has helped improve the economic situation of the farmers of Gujarat, he said.
Formed in 1946, it is a brand managed by the Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd.

HARMONY – The McHenry County Historical Society, in cooperation with the McHenry County Historic Preservation Commission and Illinois Department of Transportation, is searching for a potential alternative site to accommodate the one-room Harmony School.
Built in 1931, the brick structure sits on 0.89 acres at the corner of Route 20 and Harmony Road in Coral Township. Its pristine historical condition and architectural pedigree resulted in the building being awarded landmark status Oct. 15 from the McHenry County Board. The vote was 24-0.
However, the building's owner, Prairie Community Bank, is keen to sell the school, which subsequently became Harmony Real Estate, as soon as possible, according to a news release from the historical society.
IDOT also wishes to install a roundabout at the intersection, which it says requires the school building and an adjacent presettlement oak grove to be moved or demolished, according to the release.
To accelerate its plans, IDOT made a new offer last week at an informal discussion hosted by state Sen. Pam Althoff to pay to relocate the building to a new foundation, also at its expense.
The historical society, however, must find land on which to move it. The society also will assume responsibility for ensuring that whoever receives the title to this free building maintains the school and preserves its historical character in perpetuity.
Interested parties should contact Kurt Begalka at the McHenry County Historical Society at 815-923-2267 or by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

Larry King brings his live show to O.C. Sunday
Larry King has been keeping busy since his talk show on CNN ended in December after a 25-year run. Among his interests: standup comedy.
You heard it right. In fact, you'll get a chance to see King in action this weekend when he flexes his new muscles at Plummer Auditorium on Feb. 13 at 7 p.m. The show, a benefit for Fullerton Civic Light Opera, will be an evening of anecdotes, reminiscences and interaction with the audience.
We talked to King earlier this week about his upcoming appearance and his career plans now that he has more time on his hands.
The Orange County Register: Why are you doing a fundraiser for Fullerton Civic Light Opera?
Larry King: Actually, my father-in-law has booked shows there. I've met them, it's a nice place; they help the community a lot. I like to help charity; I do it all the time. I love to give back and I also love telling stories. I've been doing that a long time. In fact I'm going to start touring now. I'll be doing major arenas, also Las Vegas. Yeah, I'm gonna do casinos. I've always enjoyed speaking at conventions and sales meetings. Now that I'm free to do things I couldn't do before, this will be one of them. My wife (Shawn Southwick) sings as well, so she's part of the show. We did it in Las Vegas last year. Another thing I like: it's fun to make people laugh. One of the biggest kicks you get is having people laugh at you.
Register: What will your Fullerton show be like?
King: My wife will sing for about 15 to 30 minutes, then I will come out and tell stories – true stories about my early years, about being in broadcasting. I'll tell some backstage stories. I open it up to the audience in the last 20 minutes. If it works, people should have a good time. I'm a storyteller by nature; I was always that way as a kid. When I came back from a baseball game I liked to describe the whole thing to my friends.
Register: What about your childhood? There are some sad stories there – you father's death, your poverty.
King: I don't talk about that. Nothing serious! Some of the questions are serious. But my main goal is to make it a fun evening. It's a little bit on the order of Billy Crystal's "700 Sundays" without the seriousness.
Register: Where are you taking this show?
King: It will be done in theaters. It'll be more heavily produced when it's in a theater; they'll show some tapes behind me. There's been some interest in other parts of the country, also in Canada and Australia and New Zealand.
Register: I've read that Jackie Gleason and Bobbie Darin were instrumental in getting your career on the fast track.
King: Yes. Bobby Darin was my first interview ever of a famous person. He just walked in. You know, he knew he was gonna die early. "I'm in a rush," he said. He died at 37, I think. At the time I talked to him he was in his late 20s. He'd had heart disease since he was very young. He told me he got his name when he was walking in Queens and he passed a Chinese Mandarin restaurant, but the lights weren't all working. Only 'DARIN' was lit up. I love stories about how people take stage names and where they get their names from. I have a good story about that. Minutes before I went on air, I was told to change my name. I had to come up with something fast. So that's where "King" came from.
Register: What's the secret to your success as an interviewer?
King: What I've always tried to do is be an everyman. I never pretended to intellectual genius; I never went to college. I'm sort of a guy off the street. The simplest questions are the best. Some showoff interviewers will talk for three minutes before asking a question. I think you should shut up.
Register: What are your other goals now, besides developing this live show?
King: I want to spend more time with my kids. I'm a Little League coach. That stuff comes first. I'll be doing four specials a year for CNN. There'll be one on Alzheimer's, one on the "Spider-Man" fiasco. I hear they're drawing a lot of 14-year-olds and a lot of people who want to see it just to see if something bad happens.
Register: What's the toughest question you've ever been asked in your live show?
King: I've been asked about why I've never had a marriage work until this one (King has been married eight times). I've found that the hardest thing. Women – I have never figured them out. That Venus and Mars thing is true. They think differently. And so, that's a hard question to answer.
Register: Is the show scripted or ad-libbed?
King: I know where I'm going. I've got a million stories in m head, but I would say I'm disciplined, although I sometimes ad lib. And sometimes the audience tells you where to go. You switch gears. It's a fascinating thing to walk out on a stage. With most people, the biggest fear they have is stage fright. I've never been frightened, because you know, it ain't brain surgery. Sunday night's show will not change the world.
Register: After a quarter-century on CNN, is there anyone you regret not having interviewed?
King: We're still trying to get Fidel Castro. I don't think anyone alive has led a country longer. I went to Havana last year. Ted Turner tried to get him for me. I've got Sean Penn working on it. They say he will do one more international interview. They tell me he can speak English but doesn't. So when he's ready, so am I.

Who wears biker shorts under dresses? (can we talk about chaffing?)
Thanks for the responses! I'm glad I'm not the only one!
So after writing this post, I went to a store called "spandex world" and bought some spandex fabric and stretch lace to make prettier shorts. I made some black ones with purple and black lace, and some "nude" ones with nude lace. I even put little bows on one pair to make them look vintage-esque. They make me feel really cute, comfy and confident! I want to make more in more colors, but it's almost tights-season, so I'll hold off till spring. And hopefully I'll lose more weight by then!

Who here does weight training as their workout?
When I moved into my new apartment, the previous tenant had left a weight bench, barbell, and weights. The weight bench was held together with duct tape and looked really scary, so I threw it away... but I kept the weights and barbell and have tried to incorporate them into my weekly exercise. It's really hard though, and I don't know what I'm doing, so I usually keep it light.

Who wears biker shorts under dresses? (can we talk about chaffing?)
I have a problem with inner thigh chaffing. I love wearing dresses and skirts, and I live in NYC, so I walk everywhere, and biker shorts are the only solution that actually keeps me comfortable all day long. Do you ladies do this?
I gained a bunch of weight my first year of graduate school, and when summer came around I went on a date at the Bronx Zoo, where I had my first thigh-chaffing experience from walking around bare-legged in a (totally cute!) dress. So I spent that summer pathetically poor, walking home 30+ blocks from my temp job to save on subway fare (and hopefully lose weight, but no...). I tried rubbing deodorant there, but it didn't last, and so it was very painful to walk by the end of the day.
And the worst part is I didn't even dare to talk to anyone about it because I was so ashamed at having gained weight so quickly. (It's weird how I wasn't ashamed to tell everyone I walked home 30 blocks a day out of sheer pennilessness-- like being poor is some glorified grad school rite of passage, but weight gain is shameful and unmentionable.)
SO NOW, a year later, through google searches, I discovered that some women wear biker shorts under their skirts and dresses to eliminate chaffing. As soon as I discovered this, I sewed my first pair of biker shorts (from spandex scraps leftover from when I sewed my own swimsuit). And they WORKED! No more chaffing! and I can walk all day without any pain! (until my feet hurt, of course...)
So lately, I have been exercising and losing weight, and therefore less afraid to talk to my girlfriends about things I was ashamed of at 165 lbs. And it turns out, MANY of my girlfriends also wear biker shorts to prevent chaffing, and many of them are also embarrassed to tell anyone. So I started to feel totally normal about wearing them...
AND THEN my boyfriend saw them. Now to be fair, he didn't comment, and I doubt he even cared, since things were getting frisky for him... But still, I was mortified that he saw me in these, and I felt very un-sexy. Even though he has weight and chaffing issues of his own, which he often complains about shamelessly.
And so I guess I wanted to share this on here, because it's crazy that it took me so long to discover this solution, and it's crazy that so many women do this, but never talk about it. And it's crazy that I'm ashamed to talk to my boyfriend about it, even when he is open about his own chaffing. And it's really crazy that I feel less sexy, even though I'm in less pain. WHY DOESN'T ANYONE EVER TALK ABOUT CHAFFING?

Losing my Thesis Thirty!
I just finished my graduate thesis! Yay! But after 2 years of grad school, I've gained a lot of weight. I kept telling myself that my schoolwork was more important than looking good, and I really stopped taking care of myself physically. Now I want to change that and be healthy.
For the past few weeks I've been doing jumping jacks and push-ups almost every morning, going for walks in the afternoon. And on Monday of this week I started keeping a "journal" of things like what I eat, what time I eat, how much exercise I do. I've been feeling really great about being able to push myself to do more push-ups, jumping jacks, aerobics, etc. I already look a tiny bit toned and have more energy!
But today I bought a scale.
I already hate it. All my good feelings about myself went away as soon as I read the number. I guess that's how I ended up here. I mean, I didn't start exercising and eating better to change a number on a circle, I did it to be healthier and look better and feel better... but ggggrrrrrrrrrrrr! That number!!!
I'm 24, I'm pretty, I'm in a great long-term relationship (with a guy who loves me and loves my body), I have lots of friends who I see on a regular basis, I'm somewhat successful (if we don't count student loans), and I have tons of hobbies that keep me busy and fulfilled. I'm a happy person! I have a great life!

435: Purity
Purity |
Title text: On the other hand, physicists like to say physics is to math as sex is to masturbation. |
[edit] Explanation
Mathematics is the abstract study of topics encompassing quantity, structure, space, change, and others. Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force. They do this using mathematics. Chemistry is the science of matter, especially its chemical reactions, but also its composition, structure and properties. That is, they study a subset of physics, using a subset of physics. Biology is the subset of chemistry that is concerned with the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy. Psychology is the study of mental functions and behaviors, why living things do what they do individually, which makes it a subset of Biology. Sociology is the study of society, or, the study of groups of people and their interactions, which sounds an awful lot like taking the skills of psychology and applying them to a large group of people.
Now, mathematics has the classifications Pure mathematics (the maths you learned in school, and the subject of the field of maths,) and Applied mathematics (physics, chem, and so on.) Taking this to its logical extreme, the comic arranges the six scientific fields according to the Hierarchy of science, represented by a person on a chart of purity, saying that a field is 'more pure', than the fields depending on it. This is a topic often used in jokes between scientists of various fields as to who is more important. The physicist, Cueball, of which everyone else's work is based upon, feels that he is at the top... but is ultimately upstaged by the mathematician, Blondie, whose field is so pure that ultimately everything else could be seen as derived from it. After all, physics could not exist without math, thus ultimately everything can be expressed as a mathematical equation. Thus, the mathematician snobbishly says that she didn't even see any of the other fields standing so far over to the left on the graph. Alternatively she is not snobby - she is just so far detached from the real world - that she doesn't even understand that there could be a comparison between her field and other fields. That is if she even knows about these other fields (what are you doing over there...)
The title text points out that math all by itself is not connected to the real world and is only done for your own pleasure. Physics involves interactions with other objects and can create a result, but only by applying mathematics to the real world. This leads to a comparison between sex (physics) and masturbation (mathematics), implying that physics is applying mathematics, just like people having sex likely rely on experiences they have had while masturbating, i.e. sex as applied masturbation. (See also the title text of 1158: Rubber Sheet.) This also gives a new meaning to the physicist comment that it is nice to be on top!
In the main comic Randall clearly ranked mathematicians higher than physicist, but in the title text he turns this around, and notices that the physicist would then notices that mathematics is very pure, but believes that it is not very interesting without something real to apply it to.
Blondie appearing as the mathematician could mean she is supposed to represent Miss Lenhart, but since Lenhart is defined as a teacher, which she can not clearly be said to be here, it is uncertain.
[edit] Transcript
- [Six characters are standing on a line with small ticks under each person. Above the two persons most central in the comic is an arrow pointing right. There are labels both above and below the arrow. Beneath each tick is a label. All the labels are listed here in order]
- Fields arranged by purity
- More pure
- Sociologists
- Psychologists
- Biologists
- Chemists
- Physicists
- Mathematicians
- [Above each of the six tick there is a person. The last person to the right is the mathematician, she stands at the far right edge of the comic, with much further distance between her and the second last person going right. The first four spaces between the first five persons are of equal distance. Except for the least pure sociologist they all say something addressed to the less pure person(s) on their left. The first mute person above the Sociologists tick is Megan. The second person above the Psychologists tick is a bald man with glasses and goatee beard holding a book under one arm. The third person above the Biologists tick is a Cueball-like guy with a squirming octopus in his hand. The fourth person above the Chemists tick is Ponytail holding up a test tube with bubbles coming out of the top. The fifth person above the Physicists tick is Cueball standing with his hands in his sides. Farthest out the final and sixth person above the Mathematicians tick is Blondie. She waves to the other five.]
- Psychologist: Sociology is just applied psychology.
- Biologist: Psychology is just applied biology.
- Chemist: Biology is just applied chemistry
- Physicist: Which is just applied physics. It's nice to be on top.
- Mathematician: Oh, hey, I didn't see you guys all the way over there.

In addition to Comte, Randall's tweaking P.W. Anderson's 1972 article "More Is Different." Anderson gives a similar list and then says "But this hierarchy does not imply that science X is "just applied Y*" 22.214.171.124 22:47, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
Shame it leaves out Engineering running parellel to all of them - maybe Engineering is just too busy getting shit done? -- 188.8.131.52 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- What can we learn from this? - Actually as an Engineer I have a different view point to 22.214.171.124. We are implementers of original ideas and a few of us are lucky to be original idea generators. As a successful full time Engineer I still find time to be a philosopher and aspiring teacher (who simply didn't want to be poor, which is hard to do when specializing in the other two professions). How ever I do keep asking myself often who wrote the laws that mathematicians and theoretical scientists keep re-discovering for us... - E-inspired (talk) 17:04, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
"More is Different", written by Nobel laureate P.W. Anderson, is an insightful critique of constructivism. Quote:
But this hierarchy does not imply that science X is "just applied Y." At each stage entirely new laws, concepts, and generalizations are necessary, requiring inspiration and creativity to just as great a degree as in the previous one.

This one resonated around the Internet quite a bit more than average, and deservedly so. I'd think it'd be almost as far-reaching as the grownups one. I did wonder, after I saw this, how one would take into account things like linguistics, logic, and philosophy. Then I read Gödel, Escher, Bach and returned to normal. --Quicksilver (talk) 03:58, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
Could one argue that Mathematics is applied Philosophy? NikoNarf (talk) 15:27, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
- Physics and mathematics
Physics, chemistry, biology, earth science,... are science on how things work. Mathematics and philosophy are science on how things can be predicted to work. 18.104.22.168 10:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
A friend of mine compared the math-physics relationship to linguist-regular person. A linguist researches all the little details in a language that a normal person merely uses in his everyday life without giving the language itself much thought.220.127.116.11 08:09, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
Before we get into an edit war here, I'd just like to say that "physics is the real joy in the world" would make absolutely no sense to me if I was not a native English speaker or I simply wasn't getting the comic's point in the first place. Not only does it have shades of grammatical incorrectness, it does absolutely nothing to actually explain how mathematics and physics can be compared to sex and masturbation. Thus I've changed the title text around to a compromise between my edit and what it was before. I hope this is more acceptable. Jetman123 (talk) 13:06, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
- I'm still not happy with the title text explain:
- The explain implies that masturbation "is all just in your head" and not "involves interactions with real objects". Isn't a vagina/penis also a real object?
- My last edit on this wasn't perfect as well, so it still needs an enhancement. The joke is more like this: Math/maturbation gives only satisfaction to the subject acting on this — Physics/sex are related to the real world (applied science/babies). And this is surely exaggerated by Randall because physics couldn't exist without mathematics — those faculties just joking about each other. --Dgbrt (talk) 20:13, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
Some experts say the universe is a computer. Some other experts say all computers can be hacked. If both groups are right, then it follows that physics is one stack-overflow exploit away from being reduced to applied computer science. Promethean (talk) 23:48, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
From: The psychology of the pure mathematician
- "On the other hand, physicists like to say physics is to math as sex is to masturbation."
- Are physicists born with particles- or are they implanted because they are born without balls?
- Would a mathematician have much better analogies than orgasms?
I wouldn't know.
- Math is to physics as,
- drugs are to prostitutes,
- green eggs are to ham,
- quod erat demonstrandum is to cogito ergo sum,
- masterbating is to shakespearing,
- coffee is to sugar,
- Spock is to House,
- category theory is to Kama Sutra,
- Cicero is to Caesar.
Sorry physics, but it seems to me that your particle accelerators are gluttonously huge scientifically unnecessary and totally useless particle-crunchers, functionally comparable to fastest-known super-computer designs for discovering new large prime numbers. I wonder if physicists are actually the heaviest consumers of funding that would otherwise be available to support mathematicians, who are obviously the lightest consumers of research funding and also the most productive of new discoveries. Mathematicians can actually tell the difference between an arbitrary mathematical information computational process, and an orgy of man-boy physicists playing with their tiny balls in a spaceship-submarine with a warp-core that could give anyone an involuntary geek-gasm easily shrinking physics to the size of sex. QED.
Thanks for the joke, any offense taken it was not my intention to return. I just felt the need to point out that, although I agree that physics is a respectable second-best, sexy is a long way from first.

Random side note: One could argue that mathematics is applied philosophy (if we take philosophy as a way to create an understanding of the world), and that philosophy (as a product of human societies) is applied sociology. It's a weak argument, but the circular-ness is appealing. 126.96.36.199 15:41, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Between Desire and Deficiency
"Stop me making movies of myself," professional drama queen Rufus Wainwright pleads on his new Want One. It's a less disingenuous request than it seemsthe underlying instinct being preservation not modesty but out of character all the same. Wainwright's self-mythologizing compulsion (along with his unembarrassed need for undivided attention) is precisely what's allowed our party-monstrous hero to pack a biopic's worth of foolish loves and rebel princes into the space of five years and three confidently outsize and overripe albums.
The self-titled first release (1998) showcased an anachronistic fop, breathless and hungry for experience, in a debutante daze. On Poses (2001), as if attesting to the amount of interim fast living, he was already the seen-it-all scenester, a rueful hedonist and judgmental voyeur surveying his vampiric kingdom from a Chelsea Hotel window. Now, having gorged and suppressed cravings more toxic than cigarettes and chocolate milk, the social butterfly is in larval rebirth. A gently roiling season in hell, Want One (Want Two is due next year) finds Wainwright in self-imposed exile from the pleasure dome. He strikes an almost angelic pose on the sleevearmored, shorn, staring into the middle distance, his hand resting awkwardly on a gleaming sword. He looks as confused as Franco Nero in Camelot, a knight who isn't sure if he's slain his dragons yet, and is going to sing about it anyway.
Its title poised between desire and deficiency, Want One is recognizably a recovery record, complete with raw nerve endings, lights at the end of tunnels, and even some mock-gospel resurrections. Just as well that, in contrast to Poses' Polaroid-strewn roving reports, the imagery is nebulous; there are few instruments less suited to rehab truisms than the imperious Rufus quaver, most potent when pining or sniping. He's been forthcoming in interviews, though, regaling the Times with enough crystal meth and rough-trade misadventures to prompt an excited headline"Rufus Wainwright Journeys to 'Gay Hell' and Back"that cries out for its own South Park episode (or at least a Boy Meets Boy booby prize). But Want, despite visible scar tissue, is too pretty to be cautionary. Painful as the backstory gets, the work itself remains lovely and luxuriantthere's no mistaking the imprint of the incorrigible aesthete, the miserablist romantic, the Tadzio who'd rather identify with Aschenbach.
Rufus Wainwright
Want One
Indeed, Wainwright totalizes Thomas Mann's self-described "voluptuousness of doom"for better and worse, he looks for voluptuousness in the most trivial of sensations. Nowhere is this more ridiculously evident than on Want One's first track, "Oh What a World," an impressionistic doodle of transit-lounge estrangement. Abetted by more-is-more producer Marius de Vries, Wainwright slathers on the orchestral and choral equivalent of wedding cake icing, or kabuki makeupundulating chant tarted up with tuba clip-clop, tittering Gilbert and Sullivan background vocals, and a string crescendo that, upon reaching maximum tumescence, plunges headfirst into the dark-chocolate swirl of Ravel's Bolero.

After that hoot of an opener, the promised narrative duly kicks in: "I Don't Know What It Is," a suitably hazy if oddly exhilarated account of adriftness, builds from buoyant bemusement to the false, fleeting clarity of an artificial high. Sure enough, a morning-after crash awaits: "Vicious World" approximates a fetal curl, with electronic gurgle and softly insistent Fender Rhodes temple throb.
Want is full of similarly jarring mood swingsa cyclical record many times over, all rebounding energy and recoiling paralysis. The giant cracked-porcelain centerpiece, "Go or Go Ahead," reconciles Want's two opposing modes, a crash-landing epiphany scaled as Greek tragedy, with Dionysian chorus in tow. Stirring as it is, it's still a relief when the familiar Rufus re-emerges a couple of songs latersnotty, drama-addicted, in love with himself. Drunk in flip-flops on Fifth Avenue last time out, he stages his triumphant return on a more low-rent boulevard of broken dreams: "14th Street," a redemptive homecoming parade fit for a queen, with floats and freak flags and Mom on banjo.
But the real homecoming is saved for last: Want's panorama of inchoate longing snaps into focus on "Dinner at Eight," a velvet-gloved right hook to absent dad from abandoned son. The image of Loudon leaving in the "drifting white snow" is primally specific, but this sinuous piano ballad's deceptively slender frame somehow seems to contain all the needy, competitive complications that bedevil every father-son relationship (and in particular, father-gay son relationship). Refined and precise, it also has the unadorned, uncensored quality of those letters shrinks make you write but not send (Rufus composed it a few years ago, then put it away). One word recurs, seized on and stretched like taffy each timeac-tual-lya verbal talisman that lends the song a heartbreaking, for-the-record toughness. While Rufus's maternal tribute (the first album's "Beauty Mark") was a goofy romp awash in McGarrigle-parlor conviviality, "Dinner at Eight" has a crystalline bitterness worthy of the old man. But the hard-won insights are entirely the singer's owna considered mix of rage and acceptance that can only come from years of stewing and a recognition that you've been an asshole too.

Asian Stocks Advance for Second Week on U.S., China Data
Kana NishizawaAsian stocks rose for a second straight week, closing at the highest level since January, as U.S. and Chinese manufacturing beat estimates and a weaker yen boosted Japanese equities.
China Gas Holdings Ltd. jumped 9.1 percent in Hong Kong after Russia reached a $400 billion deal to supply gas to China. Honda Motor Co., which gets about half its sales from North America, surged 4.3 percent in Tokyo. Copper producer Sesa Sterlite Ltd. climbed to its highest level in almost three years as Indian stocks soared after the election of Narendra Modi. Stocks fell in Thailand as the army staged a coup.
The MSCI Asia Pacific Index rose 0.9 percent this week to 140.92, bringing its two-week gain to 2.2 percent. A China purchasing managers' index of manufacturing by HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics delivered a provisional reading of 49.7 for May, rising from 48.1 in April and beating estimates. A similar index of U.S. manufacturing also topped forecasts.
"Market sentiment stabilized, but we need more solid macro indicators that the global economy is still in a sustainable force," said Linus Yip, a strategist at First Shanghai Securities Ltd. in Hong Kong. "China's PMI was a good signal, but we still have to see if the growth rate is stabilizing. Investors are confident there will be some policy coming out from central banks to help the market."
Fed Minutes
Asian stock gains this week also were spurred by minutes that showed Federal Reserve policy makers see a muted risk of inflation from continued U.S. stimulus. The Fed reiterated that it will keep its key interest rate target near zero for a "considerable time" once it concludes its bond-buying program.
Japan's Topix index jumped 1.8 percent this week, snapping two weeks of losses, and the Nikkei 225 Stock Average rose 2.6 percent as the yen fell for the first week in three. Toyota Motor Corp., which gets 31 percent of its revenue in North America, added 0.6 percent to 5,557 yen and Honda surged 4.3 percent to 3,502 yen. The Bank of Japan refrained from adding to monetary stimulus this week, as expected by economists.
The Asia-Pacific gauge traded at 12.9 times estimated earnings yesterday compared with 16.1 for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
South Korea's Kospi index jumped 0.2 percent this week to its highest close since December. Singapore's Straits Times Index added 0.5 percent as a report showed the city's gross domestic product expanded an annualized 2.3 percent in the three months through March from the previous quarter, when the economy grew a revised 6.9 percent.
Australia, Hong Kong
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index advanced 0.3 percent, while New Zealand's NZX 50 Index dropped 0.7 percent.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index climbed for a second week, adding 1.1 percent, and the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index of mainland stocks traded in the city rose 1.7 percent. China Gas advanced 9.1 percent to HK$12.90 and China Resources Gas Group Ltd. jumped 8.3 percent to HK$24.90 after Bank of America Corp. and Credit Suisse Group AG. said the companies will benefit from the deal Russia signed to supply natural gas to China.
The Shanghai Composite Index added 0.4 percent this week to close at 2,034.57. The gauge breached the 2,000 threshold earlier in the week, a level analysts have cited as a trigger for state-linked funds to enter the market and the state to announce measures to support growth.
Election Boost
India's S&P BSE Sensex Index soared 2.4 percent to a record before the country's new prime minister announces his cabinet next week. India's strongest electoral mandate in 30 years has put prime minister-in-waiting Modi in a position to pass measures to bolster Asia's third-biggest economy, spurring optimism it will lead a recovery among the biggest emerging markets.
Sesa Sterlite climbed 25 percent to its highest level since August 2011, the best performer on the Sensex this week.
Thailand's SET Index lost 0.6 percent after the nation's army staged its 12th coup in eight decades as the army chief, Prayuth Chan-Ocha, said he was seizing control to restore peace. Schools were shut, international television stations were off air and channels broadcast military logos and patriotic music after the military seized control following a six-month political stalemate that has sapped economic growth.
Treasury Wine Estates Ltd., the world's second-largest listed wine company and maker of Penfolds Grange, soared 27 percent in Sydney this week on speculation it will attract higher offers than a spurned A$3.05 billion ($2.8 billion) takeover bid from KKR & Co. The company remains open to further engagement from the buyout firm or other investors, said Chief Executive Officer Mike Clarke.
China Property
Chinese developers sank earlier in the week after data showed a spreading slowdown in the nation's housing market. They recovered to end the week higher after the China Securities Journal reported the nation will remove home-purchase restrictions depending on market situations.
China Overseas Land & Investment Ltd., the largest mainland developer listed in Hong Kong, finished the week 4 percent higher, while China Resources Land Ltd. added 0.3 percent. China's government has allowed cities to independently adjust homebuying curbs except for Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, according to the Southern Weekly.
Sanrio Co., maker and licenser of Hello Kitty goods, plunged 18 percent in Tokyo to be the worst performer this week on the MSCI Asia Pacific Index. Analysts including Sho Kawano at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. cut targets for the company, citing a waning outlook for U.S. sales.

Hey Guys, I just got an email from Hobbypartz with a Xheli add at the bottom. Xheli is selling the S107's for $14.95
http://www.xheli.com/mimisihe.html Dang it, and I'm still waiting to close on the house Mike. |
That's what I'm saying...
So, unless you buying several of these, plus a bunch of replacement parts to boot, it almost never worth the shipping cost. And if you were to buy more than one S107, say two, you might as well just get it through Amazon and get free shipping. Xheli and their shipping fees have basically knock themselves out of the competition. |
I keep getting ads from Amazon advertising $14.00 107's (last week, one said $12.35), but whenever I click on the link it always says $18-something.
I'm drowning in the things, BUT for twelve bucks a pop, I'd order a bunch as gifts,.. just to spread this crazy disease. I wish they's stop the false advertising shenanigans...... |
Syma 107g package deal....!!!!
https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show....php?t=1755496 |
Hi guys,
I recently purchased my first S107G about a week ago and have had lots of fun flying it! It is my first foray into the word of RC flight, and I can say that I've already been bitten pretty hard by the bug! Unfortunately, in the past day or so, I've ran into a problem with my S107G. When flying, the helicopter doesn't have the same forward/reverse speed it did. It's down to a creep now, and it takes me almost a full minute to make it across the room! The tail motor still works and spins, but I think maybe it's starting to burn out. Before I ordered a replacement motor, I wanted to see if maybe it could be something else. The tail rotor doesn't appear to be damaged and it is secure on the motor. I can't think of any other reason for this issue. Thanks for any help you can provide! |
JRomero, Welcome to RCG. I must say, you picked the best helicopter to start your addiction!
While the stock S107 doesn't hold any speed record, it certainly shouldn't take a minute to make it across the room, unless you live in an indoor gym. The most likely suspect of the problem is the tail motor. It may spin, but how fast? In the S107, the tail motor is the only thing that controls its forward and backward movements. From the sounds of it, it is not performing. Unless you have a 2nd S107, it is hard to gauge whether it is spinning strong enough. Working on the assumption that it is failing, let's first check and see if there is any debris or obstructions that prevent if from moving freely. Does the tail rotor has sufficient clearance from the motor can to move freely? Have you noticed that the tail motor is running hot? Ultimately, I believe the tail motor has to be replaced. But it helps to know the cause of its failure. Assuming the tail motor has failed. You basically have two options. First option, is to source a replacement motor and replace it. If you're go with soldering, you should trace it back to the PCB and solder in the new motor. Otherwise, you could try and splice the wires. 2nd option is to buy a new S107 all together, and save the current one for parts. The choice is up to you. |
Hello Heli Pad, and thank you for the warm welcome! I lurked this forum for a few weeks before making the decision to purchase my S107G. I directly credit this thread with helping me make that choice!
Haha, I don't live in an indoor gym, unfortunately (boy, wouldn't that make for some fun flying?!). Just a normal sized apartment. The past week or so, I've been able to zip around the apartment quite successfully, but it's just been in the past few days that I've been slowed to a crawl. As you stated, it's hard to gauge if the motor is spinning as quickly as it did. It still spins fairly quickly but I did notice that I can no longer "hear" it spin. When the motor was engaged, it used to sound like a dentist's drill. Now I no longer hear that. Nothing seems to be obstructing the tail rotor. I even took the rotor off to remove a few minuscule pet hairs that were wrapped around the shaft. There was no change in performance. I'll have to check the next time I fly the helicopter to see if the tail motor is indeed running hot. During my last flight, I stopped after a few minutes and actually removed the motor from its mount on the tail boom, and I don't recall it being hot or even remotely warm. I think I'm gonna go ahead and purchase a replacement motor. Fortunately, it's relatively inexpensive to do so! ($2.97 on Amazon, free shipping) I know some parts cost almost as much as a whole new helicopter, but this isn't the case! Thank you for your help, and I look forward to frequenting RCG regularly! |
Sounds like a plan. One other thing to check and see if you could visually detect frayed wires leading to the tail rotor, because the higher the resistance, the less juice you're gonna get from the tail. Otherwise, replacing the motor sounds like the good next step.
You did say that it was going equally bad backwards, not just going forward, right? |
From what I can see (without tearing the helicopter apart) the wires appear fully intact with no issues in that regard. However, I just performed another flight and immediately after I checked the temperature of the tail motor. It was indeed very warm to the touch. Not so warm that you couldn't touch it, but definitely warmer than the main A and B motors. I suspect this is due to some sort of resistance within the motor, correct?
Yes, the helicopter is just as unresponsive going backwards as it is going forwards. However, just as this problem was beginning to surface, I noticed that if I put the motor in reverse for a few seconds, then went forward, the motor would work as normal until I let off. This trick only seemed to work a few times. At any rate, I just ordered the new motor (here is the Amazon link if anyone needs it), and it should be here in a few days ready to put into my helicopter! I'll definitely post an update. Thank you Heli Pad for all of the help and great advice!!! |

Correction: below tests were incorrectly done in that it wasn't actually static test.txt file tests continuance of Part 2 text.txt at http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/forum/showthread.php?t=4603 but in fact tested php file test.php. For Part 2, revisiting test.php for some Apache + Varnish vs Litespeed cache tests. Part 1 tests were at apachebench low requests rate of 1000 where Litespeed cache came out on top with near 2x times Apache + Varnish performance. So for this round will be bumping that up to testing 100,000 and 1 million requests with concurrency levels of 200 to 1000 and 5000. Both Apache 2.2.3 and Litespeed 4.0.19 are at stock out of the box settings size. Static test.php file used can be found here. ERROR I made a mistake, below tests aren't static test.txt file tests but test.php test as explained here test.php contents: PHP: <?phpheader('CurrentTime: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', time()).' GMT',true);echo "time()=" . time() . "
";echo "date()=" . date(DATE_RFC822) ."
";?> Only items that have changed are: I have tuned TCP settings to allow better handling of larger connection requests. Settings added to /etc/sysctl.conf can be seen here Varnish has been upgraded from 2.1.4 to 2.1.5 and default.vcl has been slightly tuned. default.vcl configuration can be see here (for non-vB test) and here (for vB tests) Litespeed cache timeout has been risen from 45 seconds to 300 seconds Code: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule test.php - [E=Cache-Control:max-age=300] Findings: For basic php test.php file apachebench tests both Apache+Varnish and Litespeed Cache had similar cpu usage once Litespeed Cache moved off default settings for max connections and max keep alive connections. Litespeed 4.0.19 Cache memory leak was fixed with updated 4.0.19 downloads so not more excessive disk swapping. Still Litespeed 4.0.19 Cache had slightly higher memory usage than Apache+Varnish but the Litespeed Cache ended up 35% faster than Apache+Varnish combo at 1 million request at 5000 concurrency. While at 100K request at 1000 concurrency, Apache+Varnish was 2.9% faster than Litespeed Cache. At 1 million requests and 5,000 concurrency level, Litespeed Cache performance dropped severely compared to Apache+Varnish combo due to disk swapping as it started to eat up alot of memory swapping to disk by as much as 1.57GB with 1GB system tests and swapping to disk by 682MB in 2GB system tests. Litespeed cache would of needed at least 2.8-3GB system memory for the 1 million requests with 5000 concurrency to probably maintain around 20K rps. This was a confirmed Litespeed 4.0.19 Cache memory leak bug which was fixed and re-tested below which eliminated the disk swapping with slight improvement in requests rate. However, Litespeed Cache was bottlenecked by default max connection/max keep alive requests settings and LSPHP5 process limits. Raising those limits pushed Litespeed Cache performance well a head of Apache+Varnish. Update: Jan 28 Updated table. Ended up with these litespeed settings which pushed out >28k requests per second! Raising the max connection and max keep alive requests limits in litespeed admin console from 2000 to 5000 and 1000 to 5000 resulted in the biggest boost from 13,587 rps to 27,976 rps average. Tuning lsphp5 process limits and children values helped as well to top out at 28,093 rps average. Notice the cpu loads were closer to Apache+Varnish with these tuned changes. Update: Jan 30 Added Litespeed + Varnish tests results to above table
Doh I made a mistake, I didn't actually do the above tests against static test.txt file but against test.php file which contained Code: <?php header('CurrentTime: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', time()).' GMT',true); echo "time()=" . time() . "
"; echo "date()=" . date(DATE_RFC822) ."
"; ?> so above wasn't static file test but php test
Litespeed folks confirmed it was a memory leak in 4.0.19. They have patch fixed the leak and new 4.0.19 downloads will be memory leak free. Redoing the above test with 4.0.19 fixed version results in some improvements. Updated above table for re-run with fixed 4.0.19 version. Looks like lower performance is due running out of connections in litespeed default is 2000 max connections (left), raised connections (right) After raising litespeed max connection and max keep alive requests limit, litespeed cache really jumped into the lead with nearly 28k rps! Updated table above.
Guess still running up against limits in centos/server need more tuning defaults (left) vs raised process limits (right) will have to re-test soon.
Updated first post table. Ended up with these litespeed settings which pushed out >28k requests per second!
thanks! @eva2000 your posts have been some of the most interesting and informative found in the forums so far... researching LSWS/LS cache for my WordPress Multisite servers... thanks for the benchmarking & config discussions =)

Amusing to see celebrities celebrate gay marriage when marriage in general is nothing they particularly cherish and certainly something they rarely portray in a positive light in their films or music.
- Icepick said...
This is all rather dull. The election results yesterday sucked for the Dems. Not only did walker do quite well against Democratic totals, gay marriage took a hit in NC, and in the biggest surprise of all Obama gave up 41% of the vote in WV to a federal convict no one had ever heard of.
So it's time to change the story! And if the gay donation stuff is true, this was the perfect time to do it.
Changing the topic to gay marriage is good. He'll get lots of good press, lots more Hollywood money, and part of the reason gay marriage did so badly in NC HAS to be that blacks voted against it. He's banking on blacks turning out big for him November no matter what.
Anything HAS to be better than having a close run against a federal convict in West Virginia. They just simply CANNOT let that be the story everyone talks about the rest of the week.
Romney's campaign should just restate their opinion on the matter, and then ignore it the rest of the week. It's the economy, stupid! Get back on that track, THAT'S where they can win, - 5/9/12, 7:10 PM

I really believe that most gays don't give a damn about marriage. Wasn't Andrew Sullivan a big marriage advocate years ago? A lot of gays, as I recall, didn't back him because they didn't think marriage was a big deal. They changed when they began to realize how they could spite Christian groups in general and the hated Catholic church in particular. Since most gays are liberal, they just couldn't pass up the chance to nail Christians. Just watch. If gay marriage becomes legal across the country, I doubt you will see a huge surge in gay couples getting married. Deep down, they really don't care about this.

Brave? Fierce? Justice?

Well, after years of pressure by major Democratic donors, Barack Obama is finally as progressive on marriage as Dick Cheney.
So, what concessions are Obama willing to make in negotiations with Congress in order to piece together a bill that repeals DOMA? Or is his support completely nominal lip-service? - 5/9/12, 8:23 PM

Why is this such a big deal? He can't issue an edict, can he, especially when he says it's a states' rights issue (funny, for a statist like him to punt on this one). And everyone knows he was for it.

On the right there's a savor in awaiting the next gaffe from Joe Biden, who is generally thought to be an idiot savant whose savant decamped. But, you notice how he's repeatedly and publicly announced he's on the ticket again; and with a blurt levered the president into 'supporting' gay marriage. For all we have been told about the massive intelligence of the president, he has twice been finessed by a clotpoll. It's so reassuring to come up against someone certain he's the smartest person in the room. They don't know what hit them; the really really brilliant ones don't even know they've been hit at all.
It's not reassuring to see malevolent world leaders take the measure of the man, and advance pawns out into tempting positions. - 5/9/12, 9:15 PM

I'm shocked...just shocked, by this announcement. In other news water is wet, and Generallisimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
Only Zero would think it worthy of a news flash? stroking? whatever you call what the MSM does for him...oh...got it...the blowjob, to declare what everyone already knew.
I'm glad the gay people I know hate Zero for what he does, and don't lap up the lies he spreads. - 5/9/12, 9:38 PM

I'll tell you a funny one. I was actually defending Zero against my gay friends a few years ago(truth). Maybe they are more perceptive than str8s.

The slightest bit of news regarding SSM chases every other issue off the front page of the Seattle Times. As time goes on, I feel like reversing my position from pro to con simply out of annoyance. And it becomes easier and easier to suspect that the mainstream media in this town will do anything to distract the public from the most pressing issues facing our city and state.
- shirley elizabeth said...
What's even more hilarious than reading the news stories is reading people's facebook posts about it. So many people validated and "so proud" of him, "so happy the day has finally come" ....that he said what every TV show and newspaper has been talking about all along. It's like he's their kid riding a bike for the first time.
- Methadras said...
Urkel just alienated a lot of his black supporters. Whether they are going to come to the trough to drink this kool-aid will remain to be seen. If Prop 8 in California was/is any indication of a demographic that voted overwhelmingly against homosexual marriage, blacks will give their little pet Zebra a good dress down and keep it on the down low.
The little homophiles can be all a twitter about this choreographed and scripted change of heart. A change of heart that coincides with re-election, but in reality the electorate has already shown where they stand and it isn't pretty. - 5/10/12, 2:39 AM
- The Crack Emcee said...
According to The Daily Mail, after his non-announcement-announcement (of which so many are so proud) Obama's raised a million dollars in 90 minutes! Boy oh boy, for an "oppressed" group, gays seem to be doing A-O.K in my book. Leading to an obvious question:
Is there more?
And, if so, can somebody else have some? Or is the "hope" for "change" all we're stuck with?
I can picture gays, cracking UP at that famous video of that black woman, declaring Obama was going to pay for her gas and mortgage, when they could've solved all her problems - overnight - and even put her in a mansion. The even bigger joke is, now that Obama has whored himself for all that gay money, he, too, ain't doing shit for her.

It's a bit much watching Obama's supporters wet themselves with joy and "pride in the President" for his having said something which has no force of law, but which he should have said long ago as a matter of principle, especially given that it clearly was dragged out of him--a belated and cowardly admission of what he has always been assumed to believe or a carefully tailored media event, (or both), and is merely pandering to his supporters in an election year, and which may or may not reflect his actual feelings on the matter.
No wonder we're fucked...there's no one in either party who has a chance of being elected to high office who is worth a good god damn.

"RC has an epiphany Welcome to the Tea Party."
Did you assume I am or have been an Obama supporter, or that I voted for him?
I am not and I did not.
When he voted for the revised FISA law--before his election to the presidency--which gives the government more latitude to evesdrop on electronic communications before obtaining warrants and which extended retroactive immunity from civil suits to the telecom companies who partipated criminally in Bush's warrantless evesdropping on Americans--in betrayal of his promise not only to NOT vote for the law but to support a filibuster against it--he revealed himself for what he is: a liar, a hypocrite, an opportunist who will pander to his constituents and exploit their hopes and needs to aggrandize his own power.
In other words, an all-too-typical American politician. A shit.
I waited in line at the polling place for an hour that chilly New York City November morning in 2008 just for the pleasure of voting for Ralph Nader, and against Barry's lies of "hope" and "change."
In office, he has proved himself even worse than I expected he would be.
He's just as his predecessors in the White House have been: a flunky for the elites, a factotum to the powerful, a betrayer of his oath of office and of the American people.
The terrible thing is, anyone who can be elected will be the same, and as bad. - 5/10/12, 11:57 AM
- Carnifex said...
Well I did assume. Thank you for being smarter than that. :-)
I fear I feel like you do. There isn't a gnat's worth of difference between the 2 parties, and the pols running are at best panderer's seeking self-aggrandizement.
But don't sell the Tea party short, at least they're being more effective than OWS, or the Libertarians.
Telecoms sell out to the gov. to keep operating obviously. And the one thing a gov. fears is a free and independent thinker.
I'll pay closer attention to your posts from now on. - 5/10/12, 1:04 PM

Such a nice studio apartment. The hosts were amazing and really helpful, very clean and in nice location away from central but with good transport links. Would highly recommend
We were really content with our stay in this wonderful flat. Everything we needed was there and the owners were extremly nice and helpful. Very kind people! There is a beautiful park near the flat, where you can go for a walk. Even though the flat doesn't seem to be very near to the center of Amsterdam we were quite suprised how fast you'd get there by tram! Strong recommendation to go there and explore the area yourself!
We had the best stay ever here. Marloes and Gabriel were very friendly and made us feel right at home. The apartment was amazing and immaculate, the comfiest bed we've ever stayed in! Would definitely visit here again
We had a very pleasant stay in Amsterdam. Marloes and Gabriel were very nice and helpful, the apartment is very comfortable and nicely decorated, located about 20 minutes by tram from the center of Amsterdam. We highly recommend.
We had a wonderful time staying in this apartment! Marloes and Gabriel gave us a very nice and warm welcome. They were very friendly and gave us helpful tips, they also live right next door! The apartment is located in a quiet area, right next to a park, and provides everything we needed - A comfy bed, a perfectly equipped kitchen, a nice and clean bathroom and also a parking space in front of the house, if you arrive by car. Supermarkets, shops and also the train station are a 10 minute walk away from the apartment. With the tram you need about 20 minutes to reach Amsterdams central station. Marloes and Gabriel also offered us to use their bikes. So if you would rather take the bike to reach Amsterdam, that's perfect.
All in all we can say that we had a very lovely time in Amsterdam and would recommend this apartment at any time! Thank you to Marloes and Gabriel for having us! :)
We really enjoyed our stay at the apartment. It was beautifully set out, in a quiet area. The shower was wonderful. The local shops were convenient too. It is very close to the tram stops which were a straightforward 20 minute trip into the centre of Amsterdam. There is no need to worry about this being slightly out of the historic centre. The airport was only one train stop from the apartment, very simple! Marloes and Gabriel were very friendly and helpful, they also live next door!
They even drove us back to the airport, which was very kind. We would recommend staying here very strongly.
Thanks for a nice time staying in friendly Amsterdam

Is it just me or does the blast effect that comes with the clone trooper really make his blaster droop? it just looks really curved after a while. If there anyway to prevent this?? does Jango have the same problem?
Is it just me or does the blast effect that comes with the clone trooper really make his blaster droop? it just looks really curved after a while. If there anyway to prevent this?? does Jango have the same problem?
I have opened my Clone Trooper & Jango preview figures, the guns droop anyway. (well mine do).
Looks like the way they were packaged bent the guns slightly.
And those blast effects are horrible.
Not sure of a cure, apart from leaving them packaged.
TK6540 of the UK Garrison
Yeah mine are open to. They were bent at frist but I just put them in some hot water and straightened them out. It's just that even after that the Clone blaster seems to be bending cuz of the blast effect. I actually like the blast effects. They come off so it's no big deal I just wish they wouldn't droop.
Isn't there a way to "harden" the material?
InGenOps - THE Jurassic Park & Dinosaur site on the internet!
InGenOps Community Forums
I don't know if there is a way to harden the stuff,but for now you can just take the blast effect off and like it was said by Maul25SW, use hot water to straighten the gun. The trooper is the only one I have noticed that this has happened to. The others I don't have a problem with.
"I have a bad feeling about this".
"Just when I remembered what it was,I forgot where I put it."
My blasters are fine... but that's 'cos I threw out the blast effects. Silly Hasbro...
silly hasbro but they look soo kool in pics >__<
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.............
My Jango's blast effects haven't wilted his blasters, but on Zam and Clone Trooper's weapons, the blast effects have DEFINITELY caused drooping. Only solution was to remove the effects.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Yeh the effects are cool, but they do droop the rifles. Only use the effects when in battle!
Wanna hear something weird? The clones blaster is not so droopy now. It looks normal. I don't know what I did but it just seems straight now. Cool huh?

Anne in the Stands
Greetings and welcome to Anne in the Stands. In my family you had to love baseball. I grew up in a suburb of Chicago and attended lots of Cubs and White Sox games with my parents and my grandfather. My mom was even more dedicated to her teams than my older brother Bill. When I'd come home from school, she'd be ironing with the game on. "How was school, dear?" she'd call. "Oh, wait, Hank Sauer's up at bat." Our allegiance shifted instantly the day we moved to Milwaukee in 1957, just as the Milwaukee Braves were humiliating the New York Yankees in the World Series. When the Brewers came to town, I adopted a new team again. These days I try to see about 30 Brewers games a year. Some of my friends think that's unusual, but I patiently explain that a double play is as beautiful as a pas de deux. News: I used to end this introduction this way: "Just as I hope one of my novels will be published some day, I remain hopeful that the Brewers will return in the World Series." Buried Heart, my romantic suspense novel (by A. Y. Stratton), was published by The Wild Rose Press in October, 2009 and is available now. (Note the date is the same as the World Series.) |
Anne's latest column: How do I love thee? (4/15/14) Dear Milwaukee Brewers (aka the winningest team in baseball, winners of nine straight games before April 14), How do I love thee? Let me count the ways: |

Themes: Aardvark Post-It
Aardvark Post-IT theme has been temporarily removed.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
As well as being a FLUID width theme, Aardvark Post-It has added functionality in that it allows you to MOVE blocks to the Profile Bar, it also incorporates the much needed Language Menu which, if enabled, can be accessed on the front page and in various pages throughout the theme.
An extra setting, in the Custom Settings page, allows you to change the opaque background IMAGE for the Profile Bar to an image of your own choice, be it a seamless tile or a solid color.
Contrary to common belief this theme works on all versions of Moodle 2.x.x
To get it to work on Moodle 2.0.x or 2.1.x be sure to download the 2.1 version. If necessary you can delete the version.php as it is not really needed in Moodle 2.0 or 2.1. In actual fact if you do get into disputes with your version of Moodle when trying to install the theme, just make sure that the version required in the theme's version.php matches your Moodle version. You can edit it using Notepad if you need to.
Aardvark Post-IT also has the Docking Module enabled which, if not required, can be disabled by the site Administrator.
Again if you run into any problems with this theme, come on over to the Moodle Theme's Forum and ask for help.
- I'll check this out on the Moodle TEST site.
I'll get back to you. - Thanks Mary. Here are the colors that appear when grading lesson essays in the standard theme.
When a teacher goes to a lesson to grade a newly submitted essay, the link is Red (showing the teacher that it needs to be graded). After the teacher grades each essay the links turn Green. When the teacher has emailed the graded essays they turn gray. - Matt: First can you tell me which version of Postit you are using? Also, and this is more important, which Moodle version are you talking about?
- We are using Postit version 2012040502 and Moodle 2.2.5
- Mary, thanks for your good work. One quick question: how should I add links onto the menu bar (the black bar)? Thanks a lot! Paul
- In Settings > Site Administration > Appearance > Themes > Theme settings
- Hi, I would just like to know if anybody have an issue with the Grader Report, when you view all the users as the Admin user. The Left Table with the Students names and emails does not line-up with the grades Table on the right. I have updated to the latest version of Moodle, V2.3.3 on my Development site but the issue is also still on my 2.3.2 Production site?
When I use the default Moodle theme the left and right tables are aligned. - Hi, Mary Evans!
I really Love your Aardvary-PostIt Theme, you have done a great job on it.
Please might I ask, why he was removed?
Are you working on it?
There is some way of have access to his last version?
Could you send to my mail?
I will be very thankfull!!
My Best regards!
Patrick - thanks for the great theme!!!!
- Your are most welcome!
- I hope the theme comes back soon, with support for 2.5? I noticed that the filepicker doesnt work correctly
- Postit should work OK in 2.5 up to a point, but Moodle is not playing nice with some themes especially those with new block regions. However, when you say Filepicker is not working correctly, can you elaborate?
- Mary, I'm trying to use this theme in Moodle 2.6, but the tinyMCE HTML editor cannot load. I just see the html code, and my course creators don't understand html... Can you help me?
I put class="block-region" in the blocks, but nothing change...
Thanks since now! - Hi Mary Evans,
I have two questions.
Why has the theme been removed temporarirly ?
When do you plan to have it listed again ?
I found an excellent review on your theme at
http://www.iteachwithmoodle.com/2012/03/26/my-top-10-moodle-third-party-plugins/ - There is a newer version here...but the main reason I removed the links to download this thieme is that after 2.2 it does not work.
This version might work but there are no guarantees...
You will need to be logged in the Moodle Tracker to get that zip file...so be warned.

SHALLOTTE—The town planning board has scheduled a workshop with a developer whose request for plat approval was shot down Tuesday night because of last-minute revisions.
Instead of recommending to the board of aldermen final plat approval for phase 1A of Sea Wynde Plantation, planning board members voted to meet with developer Adam Lisk on June 26 before the July 1 board of aldermen meeting to work out the issues staff and the board members had with the original plat.

It bit you and you bled Swiss red! Figure that!
My worst "bite" was from a plain ole classic. They got sharp blades.
This is another thread on another forum that I really enjoy so I thought we needed one also.
These are my latest. All 3 were gifted to me. The Wenger Nature, and Skull classic by members On another forum and the fieldmaster by a friend and member on BF. Well opening the fieldmaster the saw started to close on me so I jerked my hand and ran my finger across the main blade on the fieldmaster. It bleed good.

My latest SAK is a hardwood scaled Huntsman. Ironically, I cut myself on it, too.
Both of my boys received Victorinox climbers for Christmas...and a box of band-aids. (There're 6 and 8)

I'm waiting on my first SAK. A tinker wabemuster that I ordered here on the forum. I'm not sure that I'll love it but it will definitely be something different.
got my first sak about 2 weeks ago. its a victorinox spartan got it for $10 on clearance. love it came razor sharp. and i dont get the odd look from my coworkers when i pull it out to cut something compared to the benchmades and spydercos
All I can say is
Ok...ok...her ya go. Mine is the well-used one on top. I've had it for 20+ yrs now. Black one belongs to my oldest son new red one belongs to my youngest son.IMAG0314.jpg

here's my new deluxe tinker that I got to match with the rest of my edc=)
My latest SAK was a Wenger Tradesman. Very nice knife!
Loving the green you have going there Madman44. I want a green Delica too (I have a blue and a purple).
My latest SAK is an alox Pioneer Pruner, which I just received yesterday. I got an alox Bantam a couple days before that, but don't have pics. I love the single layer alox SAKs. They're so slim and compact.
Lately, I have been on an Explorer and Outdoorsman kick. I have bought several with the old style magnifying glasses and added the plus scales and all the goodies to them. Also found a black alox Pioneer locally for a smoking good price and had to have that.
My most recent purchase was also an alox Bantam, but I have a Vic Craftsman on the way!
My latest is a Vic Hercules. All I can love is WOW its huge but I'm loving it. Photos soon.
A HUGE Victorinox Hercules. I'm really digging it and its size.
Tinker small. I love the 84mm SAKs!
Just ordered one of the alox Farmer models. I didn't know they made them until a few weeks ago and decided I needed one.
Its been a long time since I bought a SAK. For me, the Explorer Plus is about as good as it gets in a "full" sized SAK. For the keyring, I go with a Classic or Manager. Not that I need an excuse to buy one, but I just haven't found any reason to for a good while now.
Victorinox Classic.
Here's a reason noddle. They are cool, and its fun getting mail. Works for me.
