XOLO started very well in India with its slim and budget priced smartphones offering Android phones with few unique features and better unibody designs. In the current year their competition have become tough after the entry of Motorola in Indian market with its MOTO G and MOTO E but XOLO is not leaving the war so easy. Yesterday a new XOLO phone came out of curtains named XOLO Q1200 and it is priced at Rs 13,999.
The phone is priced as budget phone but you're going to have some smart features which earlier available only in high end smartphones. The phone is having special smart features which make this phone stand out.
XOLO Q1200 Specs
Now I'm sharing the specifications of this phone with you guys so that you can get a glimpse of what this phone got for its users. These are the main highlight specs of the phone, XOLO Q1200.
- 1.3GHz Quad Core processor
- 1GB of RAM
- 4GB of internal storage
- Expandable up to 32GB
- 5 inch HD IPS display
- 8MP rear camera with LED flash
- 2MP front camera
- Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS
- Accelerometer, magnetometer, proximity and ambient light sensors
- Wi-Fi
- Bluetooth
- 2000mAh battery
These were the main highlight of the phone and which is looking competitive to the other phones with similar price tags but to get them out of the competitions XOLO Q1200 needs to have some extra features to attract customers.
XOLO Q1200 Features and Price
The very first impressive feature is its design which is making this phone stand out of the competitors easily. It got impressive and unique looking design which off course can grab the attention of users easily.
The display added on front offers HD resolution and it's protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection which makes the glass almost unbreakable (in normal mishandling conditions).
It comes with smart voice control, cold screen awaken (touch to start phone while locked), Dual Window multitasking, and gesture enabled like smart features. These extra smart features actually makes this phone a smartphone and is definitely going to help get customers.
The camera on both rear and front side are making this phone usable for photography while the other phones in this price range are having just 5MP camera at rear.
Another good feature is that right now the phone is operating on Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 version but it will be soon upgraded to KitKat 4.4 version which will make the phone work even smoother and better. With 2000mAh battery phone can at least try to make a complete day with single charge but can manage only for half of the day with the heavy usage. Its priced in India at Rs 13,999, will you find it worth?

The EU has reached a decision on Apple's acquisition of Beats Electronics, passing the deal through with the all clear. The $3 billion deal to purchase the Beats brand has been in the works for some time and will enable Apple to absorb not only the new (and fairly popular) music streaming service, but also an iconic family of premium headphones.
It was decided that the transaction, the most expensive acquisition in the history of Apple, would not threaten competition and will be allowed to pass through. The music service is said to be worth around $500 million of the deal, while the headphone business is valued at around $2.5 billion. Beats co-founders Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine will join Apple as part of the acquisition. What are your thoughts on the acquisition? Let us know in the comments.

You can't get the whole story unless you subscribe or work on Capitol Hill, but the Washington daily Roll Call has a story on the Grocery Manufacturers Association's paid effort to smack down corn farmers in a bid to justify the high cost of processed foods at the grocery store.
Scott Faber, a former environmental activist who is now VP of Federal Affairs for GMA, was quoted thusly:
"We think that America has only heard one side of this debate for too long. The food industry is just adding its voice to the anti-poverty, environmental and consumer groups that have been ringing the alarm bells about diverting so much of our food to our fuel supplies."
More from the story:
In its RFP, the GMA outlined a four-part approach: building "a global center-left coalition," which includes environmental, hunger, food aid, poverty, development, senior, children, business, nutrition, farm consumer and labor groups; taking advantage of the "extraordinary earned media opportunities" caused by rising food prices; mobilizing local food banks and "other local opinion leaders in key states and districts"; and hiring "trusted third-party experts" to document the effect of fuel mandates on, among other things, global hunger and poverty, job losses in the food industry, and inflation.
In its 21-page answer, a copy of which was also obtained by Roll Call, Glover Park laid out a hard-hitting plan with two main goals for the campaign.
"First, we must obliterate whatever intellectual justification might still exist for corn-based ethanol among policy elites. … Second, we must demonstrate to policy makers at the state and federal level that there is a political price to allowing ethanol policy to drive up the cost of food," Glover Park wrote.

News story
Thames Tideway
GLD lawyers bring light to the end of the tunnel
GLD lawyers based at Defra have guided the successful completion of a £4.3bn contract, which will see the construction of one of the biggest tunnels in the world.
Reaching this milestone brings the government a significant step closer to modernising London's stretched Victorian sewerage system. The "super sewer" will stop the millions of tonnes of sewage that currently overflow into the Thames each year, protecting the river's ecosystem and health of those who use the river; and ensuring the UK complies with the European Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive.
Over the past 5 years, Defra Legal Advisers along with the Commercial Law Group and colleagues in Litigation have negotiated a way through many of the obstacles that threatened the project. They have also developed a novel and unique legislative and regulatory framework, which underpins the model that has been used for delivering this infrastructure project, and has reduced the expected cost to Thames Water's customers significantly.
The £4.3bn project will be one of the biggest tunnels in the world financed and built by the private sector, and one of the first greenfield infrastructure projects that pension funds have invested in. Private investment would not have been secured without the package of contingent government financial support developed by commercial lawyers. This government support package is designed to remove project risks that private sector investors would not have been prepared to take. GLD's Commercial Law Group partnered with the government's external commercial lawyers (Freshfields and then Ashurst) in developing the contractual documentation. The Commercial Law Group also played a significant role in securing the necessary state aid approval from the EU Commission.
The Thames Tideway Tunnel has not been without controversy and GLD lawyers, including lawyers at DCLG, steered the development consent process for the Tunnel, despite 4 judicial review challenges brought by organisations opposed to the Tunnel. With expertise from GLD litigators, these challenges were all successfully defended. This outcome was critical to the delivery of the project.
As the construction gets underway, Defra Legal Advisers will continue to advise on reducing the risk of fines being imposed on the UK for failing to comply with the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, liaising with Commission officials, and intervene in infractions against other Member States to protect the UK's position.
Alan Evans, GLD's Legal Director at Defra, said:
The Thames Tideway Tunnel is many times larger than any previous project in the water sector, with a price tag of more than £4bn and the added complication of digging under the entire length of a major capital city. There is a huge sense of professional pride in knowing that we have been critical in ensuring the go-ahead of this world-leading infrastructure project. A project that will boost economic growth, generate more than 9,000 jobs and bring huge benefits to the natural environment.
It has been a huge team effort over 5 years, drawing on the expertise of many lawyers across GLD, from developing legislation to judicial review litigation and from contract negotiation to planning applications and securing state aid approval. It is a great demonstration of what we can achieve.
The tendering exercise for the project was carried out by Thames Water and, on 24 August, Ofwat awarded a licence to the successful bidder, Bazalgette Tunnel Limited, to finance and deliver the Thames Tideway Tunnel.
Construction of the tunnel will start next year and is expected to take 7 years to complete. It will follow the Thames 25km from Acton in West London to Stratford at depths of up to 65 metres below the River.

You cannot reason a person out of a position they did not reach through reason.

You cannot reason a person out of a position they did not reach through reason.
I guess people in MN love their Mustangs. I just did a roll on on the freeway with what I thought was a stock 5th gen Mustang GT. The dude pulled hard as fuck at 70mph and was getting away from me. I was WOT. He slowed down afterwards so I could get next to him and I saw all the gauges on his A pillar. I doubt it was stock. This thing was fast. I gave him the thumbs up and I went on my way. Do people usually turbo or supercharge those things if they go the way of forced induction?

Winsted City Council Minutes
Present: Floyd Sneer, Tom Wiemiller Jeff Albers, Bob Kegler, Gary Lenz
Staff: Attorney Eggert, Aaron Reeves, Betty Zachmann
Mayor called the meeting to order.
Lenz motioned to accept the minutes of Oct. 20, as written. Kegler seconded, unanimously carried.
The salary step schedule program was discussed. Employees decided on Friday, to meet with Council members Lenz and Wiemiller to discuss the salary schedule prior to the council meeting on Monday. Lenz reported that he and Wiemiller had met with the employees and it was decided the employees wanted the original proposed schedule, which had previously been unacceptable to the Police Chief and Public Works Director. Lenz and Wiemiller then recommended using the original proposed scale, giving larger increases to new employees. (Note: The City Clerk was not made aware of the employee meeting being held.) Reeves opted not to attend.
After lengthy discussion, Albers motioned to approve the second schedule proposing a 4 percent across the board increase, placing all employees into the step schedule, accepting the schedule that includes a maximum salary with new hirees to begin on the scale, and all employees will be on the step program for 2001. Sneer seconded, Albers and Sneer aye; Wiemiller, Lenz, Kegler naye; motion died for lack of majority.
Upon more discussion, Lenz motioned to approve the original salary scale, establishing maximum caps, placing all employees into the salary schedule, with new hirees beginning on the scale. Wiemiller seconded, Albers opposed, motion carried.
SEH-RCM Engr., Cynthia Moller-Krass presented to the Council and DFA members present, additional information for options of charges for wastewater fees. Albers motioned to accept Option No. 4, distributing the revenue loss in the funds, due to DFA's change in operation, to all users, with the rate of $3.58 per 1,000 G and a flat rate per quarter of $8.01, effective for DFA Nov. 1st and all other users Dec. 16, 1999. Lenz seconded, unanimously carried.
Reeves stated many plow bid specifications were sent out, but nobody could deliver by the deadline, therefore, only one bid was received. Lenz motioned to accept the bid to purchase a dump truck for $73,976.00 from V & H, Inc., including all taxes and expenses. Kegler seconded, unanimously carried.
Lenz motioned to put the old vehicle up for sale for parts, providing it is allowable due to the fact that the vehicle was purchased with federal and state funds. Wiemiller seconded, unanimously carried.
Quotes will be gotten for using the existing plow, and re-hooking the hydraulics and purchasing a new wing.
Reeves informed Council that the MN Historical Society had approved a matching grants fund in the amount of $50,000.00 for the City Hall, which will pay for the majority of roof replacement and a large amount of tuckpointing. (The City can use in-kind services as part of the matching funds). An application for a library grant, with a maximum of $150,000.00 has been submitted.
Dave Sherman was present to discuss the Public School issues, and the importance of uniting all three communities with the location of a possible new school. Reeves stated he had an issue with the school district committing to the community of Winsted with its existing elementary school. Persons wishing to sign the support letter could. Lenz motioned to have Reeves send a letter to HLWW school, relaying the concern of the City and its taxpayers.
A person that was interested in the Plan. Comm. replacement was told the selection had not been done yet, and was tabled until Nov. 8th.
Drug testing policy, and vehicle impound policy were tabled for more information.
Wiemiller motioned to approve the following bills:

Lenz motioned to close the site, effective Monday, Nov. 8th, and to reinstate the permit program and specified hours as before. Albers seconded, unanimously carried.
A request for passage of a Resolution for Civil Defense was tabled. A sign for Ridgeview Clinic needs to be approved through a Conditional Use Permit.

Healthy snack for the fall
Select a ripe pomegranate from a grocery store or fresh market. Choose one that is large and heavy; the heaviness of the fruit indicates how much juice is stored inside!
Slice off the top of the pomegranate, which is called the crown, if you don't want to go through the trouble of plucking out each seed. Once the crown is removed, slice the fruit in four parts. Then just start whacking the back of it with a wooden spoon. If done correctly, all the seeds should fall right out into the bowl.
Combine the pomegranate seeds with other foods. Eat them with yogurt, sprinkled over salad or fruit, or just as a nice snack while watching a movie Eat the seeds carefully without releasing the juice onto your hands or clothing. Remember that pomegranate juice stains quickly and easily!

Southbound came and went on the weekend, with a massive two days of AMAZING acts - I couldn't believe how sweet the line-up was.
Highlights were Bombay Bicycle Club, Flume, SBTRKT, DJ Alison Wonderland and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, mainly because I loved dancing like a hoon to them all.
I would have liked to have included San Cisco, but I watched them (apparently) without being able to remember much :\. As you do at festivals.
It's crazy that it's been a whole year since the last Southbound (read last year's post here and my tale of working at the festival gates here).
I went with a totally different group of people this time - my best friends from SA who traveled over to visit me, and my boy-'friend', Nick. :)
With the first festival for the summer ticked off, it's time to look forward to Big Day Out, Laneway and Soundwave - got all my tickets already and I'm keeeeen.
Which is your favourite festival that you've been to, or what are you looking forward to?
Recommended acts?

"Certainly yes, Indonesian people definitely want to really play Indonesian film that smells much less red and white, and it shows nationalism, and shows the actors and actresses we do not solely westernized," said the star Gara-Gara Bola.
Met in Studio 4 RCTI, Kebon Jeruk, West Jakarta, on Tuesday (17 / 8) yesterday, she dared to say that he has a high spirit of nationalism. Laura Basuki claimed with pride and love for this nation.
"Yeah, I'm in love with the culture of Indonesia, and Indonesia as a tribal nation in the world, and it also should we be proud of. And Indonesia could be independent in the year '45, and able to fight a strong and great nation (the Netherlands)," explained Laura Basuki .

The green glass object - one of 25 lots of antiquities from an anonymous seller's collection - was found at a graveyard excavation in 1972.
It is thought to have been buried in the 4th or 5th centuries.
It was found in a man's tomb alongside an iron spearhead, shield boss and small knife.
The discovery was made on the west side of Bury St Edmunds during excavations at an early Anglo-Saxon cemetery containing 68 graves.

Why you can rely your business to Kiosks?
One of the smartest ways in order to bring some fresh advanced and technical touch to your business, sales, marketing etc is to introduce the kiosks. In today's world, the market is completely categorized by competition, more number of options and freedom of choice. You cannot just let go the huge number of possibilities that the kiosk is going to generate. Kiosks are growing at a rapid rate and their growth is exceptional in some last years around the world. We know that kiosks need less money when compared to the fixed store and this is the reason why people go for kiosks.
Latest kiosks that are manufactured today are computer-programmed that make easy communication with the customers which further results in the exchanging goods and information. Usually the customer is aware about the product or information that he is looking for. In most of the cases, main focus of kiosk is to inform the user in the minimum possible time. This is the reason the kiosk acts not only as a retail or informative system but it also works as the good sales agent. You can go for OLEA kiosk designers in order to get the kiosk of your choice.
Ensures 24X7 sales or service
The main and the biggest advantage of kiosks is that their instrument based brain, which doesn't need any human's presence at the time of making a transaction or communication with a user. Hence there is no need to employ a person to work in kiosk and this it can be operated 24 hours a day which ads more sales but without any expenses.
It encourages self service
Most of the customers of today's age prefer choosing and deciding the products privately and by their own no one wants the interference of the sales agents. Everyone wants the technical opinion but only the time when they are not finding it.
Easy to maintenance
Kiosks are usually easy to install and they are easy on maintenance too. Whenever you face system failure, most of the companies go for the expert personal only.
Limits functionalities, enhances focus
since there are very limited interface possibilities in a kiosk, the users can easily focus on the work they are doing. This interface includes a limited amount of options and so there is are limited choices that the user has to make. This helps in reducing the amount of irrelevant demands of the customers.
Increases market reach
since the kiosks are the machines and it doesn't need any human in order to operate so you can keep it operational 24X7 and thus it increases the market.

Official Jonah Hex film review
Don't forget to link to your own review in the comments or even leave your review in the comments in order to be entered in the Sweepstakes for mediocre Jonah Hex loot.
The short and sweet? Lovely Wife enjoyed it and wants to see it again. Me? I give it a 6 out of 10 and will probably see it twice more. If you want more details and spoilers, you can check below my favorite picture of Jonah Hex below. It will be safe to read again after the second picture.
* The opening of the film had a nice style with the animation. Wife noted that it was the only way they could present the branding of Hex's face in a PG-13 film.
* The scene with the Gatling guns on the horse actually worked for me. That entire scene and the train explosion scene (as seen in the pre-released clips) were a cinematically beautiful. As a matter of fact the bulk of the film looked really really good. The colors were outstanding and we were treated to some nice vistas and mood pieces.
* The character of Burke was an enjoyable one. Wife asked if the actor was actually Irish. Accent FTW!
* The whole speaking to the dead? To me it seemed as if it were thrown in to save time. Being able to talk to the dead who see everything is a lot quicker that doing actual tracking or searching down facts. There was another twist or two thrown in along with it that made it interesting, but not enough to convince me that it had to be in there. Wife enjoyed it and thought it gave the film a nice quirkiness.
* Megan Fox as Lilah? Was she in the film? I didn't notice. (I'm being sarcastic.) Her performance was standard.
* I think the film suffered from the short running time. It had interesting characters that we didn't get to know very well and I wanted to see more of Lt. Grass, more of Burke. During my interview with the cast, there was some interesting aspects to the characters that we were not even allowed to get a hint of and I think the film was less for the exclusion. I wonder if the cuts were to get it down to a PG-13? Jonah Hex is definitely an R rating character.
* There were some rather abrupt cuts. The love scene between Hex and Lilah, Hex leaving the fort with the aid of his horse, Hex recovering with the aid of the Indians to the scene of him riding his horse. All of these left me thinking "Wow, they cut something there."
* The dog, the crows, the horse. All of these were nice touches that I think did add to the film.
* At times it was difficult to understand Brolin but I don't fault him for that. It must have been hell working with that makeup.
* The weird freak in the fighting ring seemed to be something leftover from a prior shoot to the film. It wasn't explained very well and left Wife scratching her head.
* Now some detail stuff, the relationship between Hex and Turnbull was pretty much turned on its head from the comics. I asked Wife to explain it and she got the movie version 99% correct. Now for a little bit of a rant, I have read more than one review where the reviewer got facts of the movie wrong such as saying that Hex killed Turnbull's brother among other things. That makes me wonder if reviewers are actually watching the damn film? I believe that this film is getting a short end of the stick. Way too often, reviewers want to be 'hip' and 'current' and rather than actually talking about the film, they toss in quick insults about the actors or flippant political remarks (I have seen more than one review making negative comments about the Tea Party movement (Jonah Hex and Prince of Persia come to mind)) So rather than giving an actual review, they pile on Megan Fox, the short run time, and on and on.
* "This country could use a sheriff." Someone actually thought that was a good line? Sheesh.
* Having read the original script and knowing the ending (a fistfight on a field of red clay), I recognized it when it was intermingled throughout the film. It made me think that they shot a lot of the original script and went back for a rewrite and a new ending but realized how well staged and photographed the original ending was and decided to keep it. They did weave it into the film and Wife, not knowing of the original script, thought the whole effect was unique and enjoyed it.
* Watching it at a 10:30 am showing there were about a dozen people in the theater and I noticed four folks leave and not come back. Hmmm, that doesn't bode well. You can't even suffer through a 80 minute film?
* There was actually more sex in the trailer than in the film. Again, hmmmmm.
* When will folks realize that when we see a reflection of someone with a scar on their face, the scar should be on the opposite side of their face?
As I said above, I would give it 6 of 10 stars. I would put it in the middle of the pack regarding comic book movies, better than either Hulk or Men in Black and I might even place it above all of the first boot of Batman movies. Just wish it had been longer. The more I think of it, the more likely that I will be talking more about this film. Please bear with me.
Lovely Wife places it slightly above X-Men, way above Daredevil, a whole heck of a lot better than the first Hulk, much better than Batman Returns and Batman and Robin. She actually said if Jonah Hex had been given more time it would have been just below Spider-Man
2 comments:
Jonah Hex is a better idea for a comic book than it is in it's execution. That was my feeling around the time he was catapulted in time into DC's vision of tomorrowland- "Hex". That was my feeling when the second and third Vertigo mini series came out in the 90's.. Periodically it has been my thought with the Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray incarnation. Now I can add the silver screen to my list of unfulfilled expectations, except with the script that was shot, I'm not even sure it contained a good idea for a film.
I felt that I was the hybrid target audience for the "Jonah Hex" movie; I have a film degree, I love much of the source material from the late 60s that lead to the character's creation (Leone, Eastwood, western anti-heros in general) and I have a affinity for this comic book based in my childhood when I first pulled Weird Western #25 off the creaking, spinning metal rack at the drug store. For better or worse, much of my adult life has been spent thinking Jonah Hex was cool. In 1984, while in film school I naively wrote DC and asked if I could write a Jonah Hex screenplay. I remember the rejection letter had really cool stationary- Sour grapes? Maybe, my fabulous film career trainwrecked long before Turnbull's suicide bombers.
I can't sugar coat it or give it a pass because I have a long relationship to JH: it's a bad film. Even if I could fully disassociate myself from the only comic I have ever collected, and judge it totally objectively I would have to assume that Jimmy Hayward had never directed an actor before. The pacing was disjointed and muddled, there was no tension or fully thought out drive to anything the characters did. Jonah Hex seeks information from people in picturesque places for no reason, awakens the dead for friendly chats and hacks up a crow without motivation or introspection. It might have been helpful if a "Western" had something to do with the "West"- most everything takes place in the South and East. Did the writers consult an atlas or google maps when writing this? The film exhibits a James Bond sort of instant travel geography, one minute in Georgia, the next in Virginia, South Carolina and Washington DC. It's 1876, the man is on horseback, these trips can take days or weeks- yet Turnbull and Hex have no problems teleporting around the U.S.- One minute our tattooed Irishman is in the obviously named "Fort Resurrection," SC- the next he is in some sort of Southwestern EPCOT version of a Pueblo whorehouse to kidnap Leilah- Wow it's easy to find people in 1876- Eli Whitney must have also invented Zabasearch.
Part 2
I could have lived with many of the plot holes. Most of the movies I have loved in my life have huge holes and really stretch the suspension of disbelief but the disjointed and choppy editing made it less fun to try and fill in the blanks. I even could have lived with the whole "talkin'-to-the-dead" thing if it had been handled differently, but it felt tacked on like a script by committee decision. The defensive editing is evident everywhere, including the animated intro and the lame voice over narration. When Brolin as Jonah intones: "And this here's my story…" was a tip off that there was trouble deciding what this film wanted to be. The glowing balls and the imminent destruction of the capital isn't Jonah Hex's world- that's Dean Martin in Matt Helm territory. Almost any script arc of Micheal Fleisher or Palmiotti / Gray would have rendered a more true, more compact and most importantly, more entertaining outcome. Aidan Quinn as Grant offering JH a frisbee sized star that says "sheriff" must have been the contribution of someone's 6 year old son to the script.
Brolin does an admirable job in a thankless position; uncomfortable looking makeup, too much cape and costume and the sum of the hopes of the Jonah Hex fan base riding on him. There are moments where he is Jonah Hex. He has moments where he looks like he is looking grimly for the exit or for some sort of explanation of the mysterious plot points.
Megan Fox was slammed for her performance before anyone ever saw the film. I really didn't have that much problem with it. She is a pretty girl who looked like she was acting it out in front of mirror in her bathroom.What she lacked was anything for her character to do, that's the writers fault. What she needed was a director who was comfortable with flesh and blood rather than manipulating Dr Seuss shaped pixels.
Malkovich seemed to be sleep walking his way through the part, however Turnbull was always my least favorite JH villain so my bias may be working against him.
I really wanted to like this film. I really did. I was willing to cut it slack and overlook the obvious changes to the Jonah Hex legend and enjoy it as a popcorn chomping fun ride. I'm sorry fellow Jonah Hex fans, for me the roller coaster never left the parking lot.
Thanks for all your work Dwayne, this is a great blog and you are a gentleman.

Not a pop star biography, this is a loving philosophical investigation into the underpinnings of David Bowie's many personas and why he has exerted a practically lifelong fascination over the author. Predictably my favorite elements of this book were the parts where the author talked about his own life and what individual Bowie songs meant to him. Like you would expect, Critchley covers gender, sexuality, creating identities, and dystopias. But what was different from everything else I've read about Bowie was the material about narrative identities and how Bowie "breaks superficial conventions between authenticity and truth." Critchley explains how David Bowie uses utterly constructed, self-conscious fakery to be original and convey deep emotional truth, with just one example being an anecdote about how Robert Fripp watched Bowie trying to generate exactly the right emotion in his voice, playing the loop and trying different things over and over.
This same dynamic was unconsciously illustrated in a description of how David Bowie didn't attend his brother Terry's funeral after his death by suicide, because he didn't want to turn it into a media circus. Critchley says, "The note on Bowie's bouquet was extremely poignant: 'You've seen more things than we can imagine, but all these moments will be lost—like tears washed away by the rain.'" My reaction to this was, yeah, it's extremely poignant, especially if you're a fan of the movie Blade Runner, since Bowie's note is an unabashed rephrasing of Rutger Hauer's character's dying speech at the end, minus the bit about space travel. Always a pose to tell a true thing. Also, it's worth noting that I had to look up what year Blade Runner came out and make sure it was first, because Bowie is such an influential icon that I thought it wasn't out of the question that the screenplay writers were copying Bowie instead of the other way around.
What other book is this like? Every other book about David Bowie, but thankfully not too much so. Okay, it was also kind of like Uncommon: An Essay on Pulp by Own Hatherley
Theme Song? "The Secret Life of Arabia"

Immortality As Syntax Error
The "mind" is not an inhabitant of part of the body, but is one particular way of describing certain behaviours of that body; consciousness is a pattern of standing waves across the entire brain, an emergent function of the complexity of electrical phenomena; emotions are the subjective experience of changes in neurochemistry; and decisions to act are not the causes of bodily actions, but precede them and are therefore illusory effects thereof. When this has been thoroughly understood, we have no choice but to question most of our natural language about death.
Human languages tend to be based on a grammatical subject, to which are attached predicates. And, in defiance of all logic, existence itself is treated as such a predicate. Ibn Rushd saw over eight hundred years ago that the distinction between essence and existence belongs only to thought. In the real world, we have either an essence which exists, or else we have simply nothing. To put it another way, we have a weak capacity for handling non-existence. This bug in our software might be a side-effect of natural selection. "There is a predator, you just haven't spotted him yet" clearly has superior survival value to "There is no predator".
In our own tradition, Kant may have disposed of this error, but it lives on in the natural language from which it sprung. That is, "Paul exists" is universally treated as the same kind of statement as "Paul is bald"; we speak of existing as something that a subject does, as if it could do something else if it felt so inclined. This forces us to ask the question: when something does not exist, what is it doing instead of existing? Because our languages allow us to speak about this "it" that does not exist, then we feel that there must necessarily be an "it" to speak about; and if this "it" does not exist, well, it must take some other form in order to be spoken about. In the very act of saying, "winged horses do not exist", we are naming "winged horses" and making them a subject to which the predicate of non-existence is then attached. In so doing, we cannot help but feel that the winged horses are somehow out there; we feel that they are existing in some manner that can tolerate having their existence denied. One foolish philosopher thought he could accommodate such null entities merely by saying that they "subsisted" instead of "existed".
So, too, when a person has died. In the sentence "John Brown is dead", we begin with the subject John Brown and then proceed to say something about him, in flagrant violation of Non-entis nulla sunt predicata; but once we start to say something about him, we cannot help but feel that there must be a John Brown about which this thing can be said. If we say that "John Brown is dead", in the present tense, as opposed to "there was once a man called John Brown", our language obliges us to feel that he must be in some other state of being, so that things can validly be said about him in that state. As with the winged horses, in the very act of saying "John Brown is dead" – or even the apparently more accurate "John Brown is no more" – we are naming him and so alleging that he is somehow out there and thus in a position to have his living existence denied. And once we start attaching predicates to him with a present verb, then the way is open to attaching a whole bunch of other predicates as well. So then we find ourselves asking after his state of mind there where he is, being dead, and thus the whole nine yards of heaven and hell.
In an ancient philosophical terminology we might speak of the error of conceiving of John Brown as a substance rather than an accident – that is, a property of a substance. Another way out was demonstrated nearly a century ago by Russell and Whitehead, but it has no means penetrated the popular mind and probably never will. They made existential statements in a manner different from beginning with the subject and then attaching a predicate to it, that is, they refrained from saying whether the subject does or does not exist. Instead, they began with the existential state itself and linked this to a portfolio of qualities that might or might not be applicable. And to prevent unwanted implications creeping back in, they did not express this existential state in words, but by a symbol, the existential modifier. It looked like a backwards capital E; it was negated by placing a tilde in front. This existential modifier was then applied to an "x", thus asserting that 'x' existed, so far with no properties, and the properties of "x" were then listed. Instead of "winged horses do not exist", they would write symbolic notation to the effect that "(Not-exists) any x, when x is a horse and x is winged". We can treat "John Brown is dead" in the same way: "(Not-exists) any x, when x is an animal, x is living, x is named John Brown" and so on down the list of Johnbrownian properties. In this formal language, tendentious questions such as "What is John Brown doing now that he's dead?" cannot even be asked.
To put it in its sharpest form, having "to die" as a simple verb ultimately makes no sense. An entity may begin to do this thing called dying, but it cannot complete the process. Having such a simple verb suggests that the subject continues before, during and after the business of dying; whereas in fact you cannot have the same one. For when the process is complete, the entity is nowhere to be found.
The best way to avoid the quicksand of the subject-predicate formation is to cease and desist from thinking of a person as a thing, a noun or even a subject. Instead, we should think of a person as a property, a process or a verb. Where does the melting go after all the snow has finished melting? Or, as Fan Zhen asked, what happens to the sharpness of a knife after the knife has been cast into a furnace? These are silly questions, because "sharpness" and "melting" are not themselves things, but in one case a property of another thing and in the other case a process that a thing is undergoing. Properties do not wander about by themselves and processes cannot be separated from the thing that is undergoing them. When John Brown dies, therefore, we can say that a certain physical system no longer exhibits a certain property, namely the consciousness that we call "John Brown". People have claimed that a thing called the "soul" is indissoluble and so cannot perish, but a process cannot be indissoluble. So we may also say that a certain process, resulting in behaviour that we shorthand as "John Brown", has now terminated. The program is no longer running.
We ought therefore to invent a new vernacular, and say that that the physical system, the body, no longer has the property of Johnbrowning, or that there is no longer any Johnbrowning going on, or more simply that it has ceased to Johnbrown. The question whether it is still Johnbrowning after it has ceased to Johnbrown, and the question where it is presently Johnbrowning now that it has ceased to Johnbrown, are both self-evidently meaningless and stupid enquiries. No people who spoke my verbal language could be persuaded to give money to a priesthood in order to assure themselves of a happy Johnbrowning after it had ceased to Johnbrown.

"Then He went out again by the sea; and all the multitude came to Him, and He taught them. As He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, 'Follow Me.' So he arose and followed Him." (verse 13-14, NKJV)
As Jesus passed by… We all pass by a thousand things each day that we never take a single moment's notice of, don't we? People, interactions, opportunities… We simply "pass by" on our way to somewhere else. But when Jesus passes by, He sees things that others don't. He saw Levi "sitting at the tax office." Any one of us would have glanced Levi's way and have simply muttered to ourselves, "What a hopeless sell-out." But when Jesus saw Levi, He saw a heart hungering for acceptance and love. Aren't we so thankful that when Jesus passes by us, He looks our way, too?
In Mark's Gospel, Christ's call to discipleship and Levi's immediate response of obedience is abrupt and unexpected. The sudden encounter is one which even leaves us a bit uncomfortable perhaps. Dietrich Bonhoeffer reflects on the abruptness of this interaction:
The call of Jesus goes forth and is at once followed by the response of obedience… How could the call immediately evoke obedience? The story is a stumbling-block for the natural reason, and it is no wonder that frantic attempts have been made to separate the two events… Thus we get the stupid question: Surely, the publican must have known Jesus before, and the previous acquaintance explains his readiness to hear the Master's call. Unfortunately our text is ruthlessly silent in this point, and in fact it regards the immediate sequence of call and response as a matter of crucial importance. It displays not the slightest interest in the psychological reasons for a man's religious decisions. And why? For the simple reason that the cause behind the immediate following of call by response is Jesus Christ himself. It is Jesus who calls, and because it is Jesus, Levi follows at once. This encounter is a testimony to the absolute, direct, and unaccountable authority of Jesus… Jesus summons men to follow him not as a teacher of a pattern of the good life, but as the Christ, the Son of God. In this short text, Jesus Christ and his claim are proclaimed to men. Not a word of praise is given to the disciple for his decision for Christ. We are not expected to contemplate the disciple, but only him who calls, and his absolute authority. According to our text, there is no road to faith or discipleship, no other road – only obedience to the call of Jesus. (Bonhoeffer, Discipleship)
An unexpected call, and an immediate response… You know, I used to look at this story and shudder in awe at the magnitude of Levi-Matthew's sacrifice. To be honest, I always found the account intimidating. Would I have been able to walk away from everything known and comfortable in my world? After all, Levi's decision was an irreversible one! Theologian William Barclay points out:
Of all the disciples Matthew gave up most. He literally left all to follow Jesus. Peter and Andrew, James and John could go back to the boats. There were always fish to catch and always the old trade to which to return; but Matthew burned his bridges completely. With one action, in one moment of time, by one swift decision he had put himself out of his job forever, for having left his tax-collector's job, he would never get it back. It takes a big man to make a big decision, and yet some time in every life there comes the moment to decide. (Barclay, William Barclay's Daily Study Bible, Mark)
But, you know what, as I reflect on this passage more fully, I think I now understand why Levi could and would immediately choose to follow the call. Through his whole life, Levi-Matthew had struggled to find meaning and purpose, to feel like he belonged somewhere. And now, here was that opportunity standing before him, in the form of a Person named Jesus. Levi was being offered an invitation to be a part of a community, a family. He was being called into an eternal friendship with the very Son of God. As Bonheoffer concludes, "At the call, Levi leaves all that he has – but not because he thinks he might be doing something worth while, but simply for the sake of the call. Otherwise he cannot follow in the steps of Jesus… When we are called to follow Christ, we are summoned to an exclusive attachment to his person."
He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. ~Jim Elliot

Ultra Hot Pyscho-Bitch Miss Cryss has a blast kicking Her slave in the nuts, then forces him to lick Her boyfriend's feet! Everyone hangin' out watching in the hotel suite were amazed. It was a turn-on just to watch everyone watching this go on! WOW...
When we asked Miss ChloeAmour if She had any mean Girlfriends who enjoy kicking men in the nuts we never thought She'd bring a Girl who can kick like this! Miss Liv Aguilera used to play soccer and other things where She used Her legs and wow can She kick!
They repeatedly tell him "get up loser" so They can continue to kick his nuts. So hot!
The sexy, evil laughing is what will stick in your mind as you go to bed after watching this clip of these hot Latinas destroying this guy's nuts. he probably hates that he loves this because the Girls were enjoying his grunts of pain.
Mean Miss Giselle laughs at Her loser-slave for liking being kicked in the nuts. She can't believe it & comments to Her roommates who are in the room watching.
She just can't believe this loser came over to pay Her good money to kick him in the nuts and not lightly; She kicks him HARD! So hard he drops to his knees a couple times.
She finishes w/a lighter form of t*rture: She knows he doesn't like feet so She slips Her sneaker off so She can make him sniff Her sweaty, dirty socks while making sure he knows what a loser he is!
Sadistic Miss Lindsey Leigh tells Miss Brandy that it's been a while since She's has a good ballbusting session, so both Girls UNLEASH on Their slave.

Accelerating On slave's Cock 'n Balls
These Girls LOVE being brats & laughing at Their slaves. After ballbusting slave#1, They order slave#2 to kneel at Their feet and spread his legs so They can step on his cock & balls, kinda like accelerating on a car pedal. Miss Chloe Amour is in leather boots & Miss Liv Aguilera is in mary jane-style high heels. Both Girls stand up w/Their full weight on his junk all while calling him a loser & laughing hyseterically. They know this slave can't handle much ballbusting at all, but They don't care, They dish him out some light kicks which makes him groan and They LOVE it! Just like Miss Chloe's interview on Twitter, the Girls love watching a boy keel over in pain & grunt 'n moan from ball pain.
His reward: Miss Chloe Amour stands on his cock 'n balls & sticks Her ass just close enough to his face for him to smooch Her gorgeous ass in those amazing black tights. And, he gets to remove both of Miss Aguilera's heels so he can sniff & smooch Her stocking-clad feet.
His final reward is getting to remove just ONE of Chloe Amour's boots so he can give Her sweaty bare foot a long kiss......muuuuuuah! What a lucky slave!
This loser loves feeling pain caused by hot Females. Miss Erika loves taking losers' money for inflicting pain!
She KO's him a couple times & loser doesn't care that She's humiliating him right in front of Her friend, relaxing on the couch watching all of this.
Her pretty feet hurt from nailing his nuts that She demands a foot massage during a break. All 100% real, candid suburban Femdom & ballbusting!

(especially making fanboy remove Her boyfriend's shoes AND black socks ewwww)

Ballbusting 101: loser Gets Trained (HD)

Miss Chloee let us film a private session She had. Includes some really hard kicking mixed w/some really hard laughing from Miss Chloee.

Miss Nikki & Her Sister Vikki really enjoy humiliating boys & taking Their money.
This bitch, as the Sisters call him, can't handle much but loves the pain (and humiliation), so he's wearing jeans and the kicks STILL hit home & send him to the ground a few times. Wanna get kicked in the nuts like this guy is? Both Sisters give u Their email addresses.., but enter Their apartment with caution...
Ballbusting Brutality: Shrunken Steroid Balls Demolished
NYC's Cruel & sadistic Mistress V allowed us to film a real-life session with one of Her slaves - a big, dumb meathead with shrunken steroid balls. She makes fun of his puny balls while continuing to kick, stomp & smack them to send him into a whirlwind of pain, writing on the ground. The moron thinks it's funny so She increases the brutality until he couldnt even take it anymore! 6-minute session. What a loser, he whimped out & asked that She go easier on him. She might be petite but She can really demolish some balls!

By Pico Triano
Young, inexperienced, riding under different conditions than I was used to, not properly prepared, personal habits; there were a whole lot of things working against me that day. Learned a few things along the way – maybe should have learned a few more.
Before enrolling in college my bike was my transportation. If I wanted to go somewhere, that's how I got there. I'd even been planning a long tour to visit my girlfriend of the time in Pennsylvania. I was a last minute acceptance for classes that year and I hopped onto a plane with my suitcase and went. My bike didn't follow me for a year. I didn't get to ride much. The need for training and preparation never really crossed my mind much to this point because I'd always been perpetually in touring shape anyway.
Once I was back in the saddle, word got out that I was into cycling. I got a shout from Mark Dixon an Aussie. He wanted to participate in a big tour organized by Kangaroo Bags and he wanted a riding partner. Of course, I was game.
Mark had a car so we drove down to Ventura the day before the tour and camped out on behind some bushes just off the beach. We weren't sure it was legal but there were several dozen more people doing the same thing. Either way, no one came to bother us and we got a fairly decent night's sleep.
This was my first organized public bicycle tour of any kind. I have never seen so many cyclists in one place at the same time before. There were well over a thousand cyclists there. I'm not exaggerating either. When I registered and got my number, it was in the seven hundreds and there were just as many people behind me.
The ride started on the Pacific Bike Way and our huge peloton like mass of riders funnelled their way onto that. I'm sure the scenery was terrific but I was more interested in not colliding with anyone. I didn't want to fall and become an obstacle in the road for that thunder herd.
As we went though, the riders strung out and there was more room to manoeuvre. Mark and I pretty much stuck together because we didn't know anyone else there. At that point things were going quite nicely. The sun was blazing hot though and the air was very dry. I was chewing gum in rhythm to my riding, something I have never ever done again. Then I blew a tire.
I told Mark to just go on ahead. The route was well marked and there would be a big picnic for lunch when the group got to Santa Barbara. I pulled off to the side as the rest of the riders trundled on past. Never takes me that long to fix a flat but by the time I was back on the road only a few stragglers were still behind me.
I decided I would try to catch up with the main pack before lunch. Not a bright decision but had I been conditioned like I was used to, I would have got away with it. Under that blazing sun I pushed hard and just before lunch I was back up with the main group of riders. Didn't find Mark until after we stopped for lunch but I had accomplished that little goal. Felt a few twinges in my quadriceps but didn't think much of it.
After lunch Mark and I were back in the "peloton" heading back to Ventura. About halfway back is when my quads cramped up. Those had to be the worst leg cramps I've ever gotten in my life. I barely pulled over to the side of the road and dismounting without falling. I tried walking them off and it helped but I couldn't get back on and ride. I finally threw in the towel. Mark rode to the end and came back with the car to pick me up. I walked what I could but I just couldn't make much progress. I felt really bad. I expected more out of myself than that.
What did I do wrong? A whole lot of things. The result was that I allowed myself to get a little dehydrated and I let my electrolytes get too low.
- The lack of training wouldn't have been so bad had I not pushed myself. I'm a slow rider. The pace of the main group was slightly faster than I was used to even without me playing catch up.
- Lose the gum. Chewing gum keeps your saliva flowing. Had I not been chewing gum I would have taken in more fluids because my mouth would have gotten dry faster.
- Drink lots of water but - if you are sweating a lot, you're losing salt and other important minerals. They need to be replaced. I'm not a big proponent of sports beverages but they do help. There are other ways to replace those salts and nutrients.
- Ignoring what you body is telling you is a big mistake. Those first twinges should have raised a red flag. At that point I could have replaced some of the missing electrolytes and gone through some stretches. That might have been enough for me to finish the day.

The Storm Glass by Fred Limberg
I really felt I was floundering through a large part of the beginning of this book. Who is Jim Wilson? He's not your average sailor and seems to be surrounded by secrets. Not a member of an organized group, Jim Wilson might be considered a free-lancer. With the amount of watching over his shoulder he does (a bit of paranoia there?) I don't think he'll be freelancing for long. Is he FBI? CIA? This singular person either has the right connections already or knows how to get them quickly and freely.
Where the reader normally expects to get the beginning of plot and characterizations down, this story tends to muddy the waters completely and if they weren't sailing down the Mississippi on vacation, I would expect potholes to suddenly appear in the river, but waiting in lineups while the locks move the tow barges through is just as dangerous. Why does Jim keep looking over his shoulder? Even his wife Iris notices, but doesn't notice there is someone there more often than not. Who are the two people who join up with them on the way down the river, another couple just on a boating vacation? Or is this a planned connection to join Jim and Iris?
Fortunately I continued reading and the book began to swing around and redeem itself as a real thriller with what appears to be spy technology, hidden resources for high class espionage, murder and mayhem. Fred Limberg makes you sit up and notice! When a bank manager decides to rob his own bank, Jim Wilson's special abilities come into play but not everything goes the right way in life and death. A worthy thriller with a little bit extra once you can wrap your head around what is really happening on the old muddy Mississippi.

Tipperary will go into their Liberty Insurance All-Ireland semi-final as rank outsiders against champions Cork but having returned to this stage for the first time in 10 years, are not ready to end their season yet.
Captain Orla O'Dwyer was exultant as Tipperary survived a determined fightback by Waterford in the second-half to win out by 1-14 to 1-7 and make it to the last four.
"We knew we couldn't underestimate Waterford, they're a super team, up and coming," said O'Dwyer, who scored three points and was named Liberty Insurance Player of the Match.
"We're delighted. We came out all guns blazing. We felt we hadn't given our true performance yet and we have done that today.
"We can't wait now for the semi-final. We just kept going and our workrate was super. I can't be more proud of the girls. It's brilliant. Hopefully now into the semi-final, win that again and go on again.
"Waterford are very strong. We knew that and everyone has their purple patch. We knew we couldn't drop our heads and had to keep going and that's what we did. It's all about mentality as well. Our bodies just kept us going. I think Tipperary is on the way up and hopefully we stay going."
Manager Bill Mullaney pointed out that his charges had shown composure in the face of intense pressure on countless occasions already this year, not least when scoring an injury-time goal to beat Offaly in the round-robin stages.
So when Waterford got to within two points, he was confident the players would pull through.
"We've been in this situation all year. We've been down two or three points and came back to win it. Against Offaly, it was the last puck of the game. Their character, you can't question. When it got back to two points, we steadied, we drove on, we got a point and I thought we were the better team overall.
"I'm delighted for all of them girls. They've got great character."Tweet
