Horsing Around with History is a 32-page comic book story starring Scrooge McDuck, written by Carl Barks and William Van Horn. It was released in Uncle Scrooge Adventures #33 (1995). This was Barks' next-to-last story released in the United States.
It was also later printed in the Carl Barks Library of Uncle Scrooge Adventures in Color #56. Carl Barks wrote the script, but the actual story was drawn and lettered by William Van Horn.
Scrooge, Donald and the nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie are off to find the legendary Trojan Horse. Little do they know that the Beagle Boys are spying on them. The Ducks encounter an albatross named Alby, who works as a trained pet for the Beagle Boys. It is mentioned twice that the Beagle Boys like prunes. Barks came out of retirement to provide a script for this story and he chose William Van Horn to write this story for him.
This story was originally written to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Carl Barks' retirement.
It is mentioned that the Beagle Boys like prunes in this story. A reference mentioned in earlier Barks stories such as The Mysterious Unfinished Invention and The Giant Robot Robbers, and in Don Rosa's Cash Flow and other stories.
Scrooge mentions not resisting anything that's free.
Despite the fact that the Beagle Boys are mentioned, they don't appear until the end of the story.

EXHIBIT: "The High Stakes of Macedonia's 'Colorful Revolution'"
Several years ago the government of the Republic of Macedonia embarked on an "urban renewal" of the capital city, Skopje. The initiative was seen by many as a highly divisive nationalist project. In 2016, these monuments and buildings came under attack by various groups of citizens. Using paint as ammunition, they defaced the edifices in an expression of revolt against the buildings and the perceived government corruption and disregard for the rule of law. This exhibit brings together the visual testimonies of three photographers: Robert Atanasovski, Vanco Dzambaski, and Kire Galevski. The exhibit is sponsored by IU's Russian and East European Institute; School of Global and International Studies; and the Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures, and it will close 12/17/2017.

WillowLights said:If it's not supposed to be used for makeup....then you better watch the youtube videos...there's posting of using these pigments as eyeshadows and lipgloss...
Plus on the package there's no statment as such to not use as MAKEUP...so maybe you better cover yourself to put that on your packages from now on...Your package does read NON-TOXIC........But it doesn't state 'NOT FOR MAKEUP USAGE...
mkatz said:Dear Knittingmom, You are so right about the legalistic reply about eating Pearl Ex. I hope you understand the world is one big liability.
To use Pearl Ex even as a cosmetic-not even as a food stuff-so I'm talking about topical application to skin-it would have to be sterilized and tested extensively. It would come under FDA rules which are extensive and the cost for perhaps the same product would have to go up 2 to three times. If it was used a food additive there would be even more testing and purification...etc. So you see the dilemma. Sorry.
made marryum said:WOW!
Just had to jump in here. I've done a fair amount of looking into this myself and nowhere in my extensive perusal of Jacquard Products website do they indicate that the Pearlex pigments are appropriate for use as a makeup or for use in food decorating. As evidenced by everything at their website they are an art materials manufacturer. I even called the company and asked if the product was usable as a makeup or food decorating ingredient and was told - very clearly - that the PearlEx should not be used in either of those applications.
As for the non toxic classification, again, based on my own investigation, there is nothing in the Pearl ex that is going to cause you to fall over dead if you happen to get some on your skin or ingest some. All the same, even something as innocuous as peanut butter or crayons, while non toxic aren't something one would use as an eyeshadow and you won't find me grating crayons onto my birthday cakes.
As for the YouTube vids - really?? YouTube is also a great place to watch idjits in action - doesn't mean I'm going to ride a bike off the barn roof.
It all comes down to doing our own investigation and using the good sense we were born with - and one last obvious thing....nowhere on any of their packaging does it say you CAN or SHOULD use the Pearlex as a makeup or food decoration.
keeping it merry!

It's been the one of the most requested features for rather a long while, so I'm pleased to publicly release this String 1.3.10 beta, which debuts keyboard parameter entry.
String is a virtual instrument and fx unit that emulates the beautiful sound of the polyphonic string synthesizer. String's authentic tone comes from its accurate emulation of the divide-down oscillator technology behind the lush ensemble synths of the 70s.
This release adds the following changes :
- (feature) Keyboard entry of rotary parameter values. Rotary controls can now be typed directly into by clicking on the text value below the control.
- (improvement:Mac OS X) Installer and all installed components are now signed in compliance with Mac OS X 10.8's Gatekeeper system.
- (improvement:Linux) When using the JACK audio system in standalone mode, String will sync to the JACK transport's tempo.
- (fix:RTAS) Fix for the right-channel muting when bypassing String in Pro Tools when used on a mono to stereo track.
- (fix) Fix for input and output devices occasionally becoming un-selectable.
- (improvement) Significantly improved UI response speed; reduced CPU usage when parameters are automated whilst the UI open.
- (improvement:Windows) Clearer font rendering on preset browser.
- (improvement:Windows) Removed C++ runtime libraries redistributable requirement for RTAS plug-ins. The installer no longer installs the C++ runtime library redistributable components when installing the RTAS plug-ins.
The only other change worth mentioning is that Gatekeeper signed packages will not work on Mac OS X 10.4. So whilst we're still supporting this older OS, anyone on 10.4 will need to download a specific dmg for their system. Everyone else should use the standard signed builds.
If you have any problems with this release (and I'd be very surprised if these Gatekeeper changes don't break something), don't hesitate to let us know. Once I'm happy that this build is stable, I'll put out an official release. Enjoy!

It was a year of firsts for the Grand Canyon University men's basketball team.
The program played in its first year of Division I eligibility and head coach Dan Majerle led the team to a postseason tournament in his first year on the job.
"Overall our season was fantastic, a lot better than I imagined or anyone else imagined," Majerle told Burns and Gambo of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM. "I basically took over the team that they had last year, which was Division II players. We worked hard from the beginning, and our goal at the beginning of the year was to get better every game, but come WAC time to be playing our best basketball. I saw it right about the first or second game in the WAC, something clicked in our guys. I saw it, because we worked so hard and all of a sudden they bought into and they started really getting after it. We won two in a row at home, then two on the road and after that four-game win streak our guys started to believe. So to finish 10-6 in the WAC was beautiful."
GCU finished 15-14 in the regular season, earning a bid to the CollegeInsider.com Tournament, before losing in the first round to Pacific by two points Wednesday. The team joins the University of Nebraska-Omaha as the only two schools to play in the tournament during a transition year.
As part of the school's transition to the Division I ranks, the Antelopes are not eligible for conference championships or the NCAA Tournament until the 2017-18 season.
"It was big we were in the CIT this year because at the beginning of the year when we were going out recruiting, everybody was saying, 'Well you can't play in a postseason.' Well we played in a postseason in our first year," Majerle said. "Now, it's not the NIT or the NCAA Tournament obviously, but it is a postseason tournament, and that was huge for us. We had to be over .500 to do that, so to do that was huge, but it does kill me to do that well in the WAC and not be able to participate in the conference tournament and have a chance to go to the NCAA Tournament. In time, we'll be there, and when that time comes we'll be good."
The Antelopes have been to the NCAA Tournament before on 10 different occasions, most recently in 2012 and 2013, but as a Division II team. They hope to return to the big dance, and Majerle has scheduled tough opponents for his team next season in Kentucky, Indiana, Harvard, Tulsa and New Mexico to help prepare for the higher level of play.
"We have 20 home games next year which is unheard of," Majerle said. "To have 20 home games and the type of competition coming in and the type of competition we're playing on the road, it's going to be great year and we're going to continue to get better."

Is it that we desire what is sold to us, or is it that OEMs will sell whatever it is they want and we'll buy it? Like it or not, we are being forced into a brave new world, which has no certainty that it will even last yet. I am of course talking about tablets. Come this holiday season (wait, isn't the whole year just a long string of commercial holidays?), you won't be able to browse an isle at a computer store without being assaulted by tablets. Big ones, small ones, Android ones, HP ones, RIM ones, Apple ones. Asides some discussion on GNOME3, we delve into this uncertain territory that has yet to play all its cards. Why is Google withholding the Honeycomb source, and what could be going on behind closed doors? What has Sony's recent actions have to do with "ownership", and what has this meant to GeoHot? Is RIM capable of delivering a product that will deliver their promises, and is Google between a rock and a hard place with Android and Chrome OS? Find it all, here, on the new* OSNews Podcast.

Millions of Bows Dress
Added Aug 19, 2012
Berlin, Germany
Well I don't know if there are millions of bows on the dress but there are many… I used Butterick 5672. It said "easy" on the envelope but that is no reason for me to not make it even easier. I didn't line the dress and I dropped the zipper. The original sleeve length was wierd…it was somewhere above the elbow…so I made the sleeves longer for a more classic look. Usually I have to shorten the skirt (hem should be some inches above the knee) but I prefer it knee-length. Actually the highlight of this dress are the four pleats at the waist (so the dress adjusts automatically to your growing belly everytime you go to the buffet…I tried it out…it works!) The second picture shows a details of the pleats…well I suppose you only see bows…but there are pleats too!

Frozen Strawberry Margarita Pie
Frozen pies are the perfect, cool way to end a summer meal, and they're a boon for busy cooks since they must be made in advance. My Frozen Strawberry Margarita Pie is the perfect finale to a Southwestern menu, and can be whipped up in a snap in your Viking Food Processor.
The filling gets its strawberry flavor from packaged frozen strawberries in syrup. You can find these in the frozen fruit section of your supermarket, and can use regular or "lite" strawberries in the recipe. Tequila makes this a "margarita" pie, but you can substitute Grand Marnier or Contreau in its place. Fresh orange zest and lime juice give the pie a hint of citrus flavor.
Remove the pie from the freezer 10 to 15 minutes before cutting, and garnish each serving with a dollop of whipped cream, a fresh strawberry and a slice of orange.
Whip the cream to stiff peaks in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or in a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer. Fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture. Fold in the remaining whipped cream and pour over the prepared pretzel crust. Freeze for 4 to 6 hours or overnight.
Makes 10 to 12 servings

Servpro of Beaufort County recently presented a check to the Bluffton High School youth government class, taught by Erin Reichert. The contribution will help the class travel to Columbia to participate in a Model Legislature and Court Conference which is run by the YMCA of Greenville.
The students will play the roles of legislators writing bills, some as attorneys who will argue both sides of a trial case involving a death connected with hazing on a college campus, and others are running for office in positions such as youth governor.
The experience teaches students public speaking skills, debating skills, how to dress, act, and speak professionally, and will produce engaged and involved citizens for the future who will be willing to make a difference.
To date the Bluffton High Youth Government class has 71 students which has grown from nine students in 2007. Servpro of Beaufort County is proud to support local schools and make investments toward students' futures.

The nation's top quarterback recruit from the class of 2012, Jameis Winston, or "Jaboo" as he is affectionately known to some fans, has proven after just two games that the hype surrounding his recruitment was justified.
Replacing first round NFL pick EJ Manuel at QB for Florida State, preseason expectations were that Winston would be a game manager for the explosive offensive talent on the Seminoles' roster.
With two wins already under his belt, Winston has proven that he may be ready for an even bigger role in the offense:
"He has a great touch, and he always knows where the defenders are," Junior wide receiver Rashad Greene said. "He's able to throw back shoulder, just perfect balls, he throws them and I pretty much just have to put my hands up."
Winston is second nationally with a passing efficiency rating of 234.84 and has thrown more touchdowns in his first two games than he has incompletions (6 touchdowns, 5 incompletions).
The Seminoles demolished the Nevada Wolfpack 62-7 and Winston's performance, both through the air and on the ground, was a major reason for their offensive success. The Seminoles averaged 9.79 yards per snap against the Wolfpack.
This was all on the heels of a stunning Week One performance that saw Winston pick apart a stout Pittsburgh Panthers defense for 356 yards and four touchdowns in his first career start.
In his short two game career, "Jaboo" is 40 of 45 for 570 passing yards with six touchdowns and only one interception. For those who don't want to do the math, that's an 89% completion percentage in his first two collegiate games.
Winston has led the Seminoles to an early top ten ranking and his offense is fifth nationally averaging almost 52 points a game.
A matchup with Bethune-Cookman (who recorded its first victory over an FBS opponent in Week 2, a 34-13 victory over FIU) should provide another opportunity for Winston to pad his stats, but the real tests will begin as the season moves into October.
A showdown with the #3 ranked Clemson Tigers is proceeded by a tough game against an improving and undefeated Maryland Terrapin squad.
If Winston can continue to display remarkable efficiency and lead the Seminoles undefeated through this tough stretch, expect Heisman talks to grow louder and louder.

Jil Sander Fall 2012 RTW
(photosource: style.com)
Jil Sander Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear
About a week ago it became known that Raf Simons would be leaving Jil Sander, and Jil Sander herself would be returning to be head of the label. This collection from Raf is his last for the label, and wow, what a collection this is.
This is the best collection of the AW2012 season and my favorite work by Raf thus far.
I was watching this show via live streaming on Style.com yesterday, and I could actually feel the emotional energy running through the place.
I thought that the runway setting, with the flowers in glass boxes, was a bit funeral like but the clothes were anything but funeral like! The clothes were so full of life, and hope. The pale colors, mixed in with some blacks and reds, and the silhouettes that were quite sexy and modern were worn by beautiful models who walked to a rather contemporary and emotional soundtrack. Perfect.
The finale was closed with a crying Kinga Rajzak, and a crying Raf who got a standing ovation (which was led by Anna Wintour herself) from the whole venue. A moment and show I am never going to forget.
So, Raf for Dior now? Thoughts on that and this show?
And how about Hedi Slimane possibly replacing Stefano Pilati at YSL...?
Oh, the rumors! xx

ADDISON — The Addison Central School board has for the third straight year adopted a proposed budget that if approved on Town Meeting Day will lower spending and, according to Addison Northwest Supervisory Union estimates, could also mean a lower education property tax rate.
In March, Addison residents will weigh in on a proposal for about $1.68 million of spending in the coming school year. It would cut about $28,400, or 1.66 percent, from the current budget.

If you're anything like me, since you installed SL from a LiveDVD you have installed numerous packages, made changes or additions to configuration files, added daemons to runlevels and so on. It's surprising how many changes you make after installation. If you have to re-install SL or install it on another PC, it can take quite a bit of effort to get the new installation the way you had it before. This is where a checklist comes in handy.
Every checklist is going to look very different to anyone else's, but below I show you mine purely to give you an idea of what I'm talking about. Usually it takes me a day or two to get a fresh installation the way I want it, and a checklist comes in handy to help me avoid forgetting something. I have a copy of the checklist on an external USB HDD that I use for backups, so if I do trash my installation then my checklist is still available.
I have found such a checklist to be helpful on several occasions. If you've ever had to reinstall SL, I'm sure you'd find one helpful too. No time like the present to start creating one.Installation of SL 5.0 x86_64 from LiveDVD onto Acer TravelMate 8215WLMi laptop
(Last edit: 15 March 2010)
Backup contents of my home directory (including hidden directories and files) to my SEA_DISC first, just in case /home gets overwritten by mistake during installation.
Use KDE Keyboard Tool in Panel and configure the keyboards gb, br and es.
Launch the installer by double-clicking the icon on the Desktop.
Click on Update Installer.
Install SL. Don't forget to specify the hostname as "acertm8215", to specify grub to be installed in the partition /boot rather than the MBR, and to specify a grub boot password.
Kickoff > Computer > System Settings > Regional & Language > Country/Region & Language and set locale and language.
cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime
Edit /etc/conf.d/hwclock and make sure clock="local" and clock_systohc="YES"
Kickoff > Computer > System Settings > Date & Time, and set the correct time and date if not done automatically (should be).
Edit /etc/entropy/layman.cfg and, if not already done, change "storage : /usr/portage/local/layman" to "storage : /usr/local/portage/layman". (Warning: This is for layman-1.2.*. See further on for when you upgrade to layman-1.3.*)
If /home was overwritten during installation then copy /media/SEA_DISC/Backup/Desktop/* to /home/fitzcarraldo/Desktop/
Update Entropy package database and install latest packages from Entropy repository:
equo update
equo install entropy equo sulfur (If it tells you a new version of Entropy is available)
equo world
equo conf update
As layman version is lower than 1.3.0 in SL 5.0, migrate layman storage patch as explained in my SL Forums post.
If desired, remove Entropy completely as explained in my SL Forums post.
Remove Sabayon overlay, update the Portage main tree and re-add the Sabayon and KDE Testing overlays
layman -d sabayon
emerge --sync
emerge -1v portage (Don't do if keeping Entropy).
layman -a sabayon
layman -a kde
Install the eix utility and populate its database
Install eix and do an update-eix
Install slocate and do an updatedb
Edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and change "workgroup = SABAYONDOMAIN" to "workgroup = WORKGROUP" (because "WORKGROUP" is the name of the Windows Workgroup defined on the SA90 PC running Vista on my home network).
Install printer drivers
Use CUPS to install my Epson printer connected via USB.
Install cups-pdf
Use CUPS to install cups-pdf virtual printer (see my HowTo in SL Wiki).
If /home was overwritten during installation then copy the unhidden directories and files (but *NOT* the hidden directories and files) in /SEA_DISC/Backup/ to /home/fitzcarraldo/.

b) Add the following lines to the end of /etc/profile:
#Three lines below added by Fitzcarraldo (I changed en_US to en_GB in /etc/env.d/02locale too, but it didn't work):
Install mozilla-thunderbird
Launch Thunderbird and click on Cancel.
Copy /media/SEA_DISC/Backup/.thunderbird/ to /home/fitzcarraldo/.thunderbird/
Make sure Hotmail/MSN Windows Live access via Thunderbird is configured:
Edit > Account Settings

Copy from /SEA_DISC/Backup/usr/share/autostart/ to /usr/share/autostart/ the .desktop files that I want to have on the Panel.
Launch Konqueror, click on Settings > Configure Konqueror... > Java & JavaScript and click on the open file dialog for Path to Java executable, or 'java', and search for /opt/sun-jdk-188.8.131.52/jre/bin/java or whatever the latest installed Java version there is, and click Apply.
Configure desktop wallpaper.
Set up Compiz-Fusion:
Copy /media/SEA_DISC/Backup/.config/compiz/ to /home/fitzcarraldo/.config/compiz/
Set up KDE Desktop Effects shortcuts as per http://www.freetechie.com/blog/switchin ... te-engine/ so that the shortcuts behave in the same way as Compiz (including layout of the 4 desktops on the Panel).
==== Following cannot be done now because latest fglrx driver no longer works with ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 ====
Perform edits to /etc/X11/xorg.conf given in the thread "Setup an ATI card with the new FGLRX drivers for Compiz-Fusion" in the Compiz-Fusion forums.
Also add the following FontPaths to Section Files (or create section Files if it does not exist) so that text is displayed in Google Earth:
Section "Files"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/local/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/corefonts"
(Actually may not need to add the above FontPaths to xorg.conf any more as Google Earth works OK without the declaration.)
Don't forget to run aticonfig after editing xorg.conf.
If using open-source Radeon or RadeonHD driver then do:
eslect opengl list
eselect opengl set xorg-x11
Install quick-launch icons on the Panel for the following *applications*: Firefox, Thunderbird, KCharSelect, kdict, KCalc, KDiskFree, KWrite.

Edit /boot/grub/grub.conf to remove extra boots, if any, leaving just SL 5.0 normal boot, SL 5.0 safe mode boot and Windows XP Professional, and add "nmi_watchdog=0 elevator=as nopat" to the kernel bootline for the normal SL boot. (Note: elevator=as cannot be used from kernel 2.6.33 and onwards.)
Edit /etc/fstab and add "commit=60,noatime,nodiratime" to fstab in fourth column like so: user_xattr,commit=60,noatime,nodiratime

Shanetm necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
2 ganadores han sido elegidos entre 73 diseños de 24 diseñadores freelance.
We need full site design and coding for a web 2.0 reporting application system
BrandxxxWatcher (remove the xxx)
Desired Color Scheme:
crisp professional color scheme required
Desired Style:
web 2.0 style, clean contemporary look
Accepted File Formats:
Standard Web Formats (.jpg, .gif or .png); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
First please ensure that you really are capable of carrying out the design AND coding we require before posting as we reward good workers well but we need to get this up fast and have a low timewaster threshold so forgive my directness but I've genuinely had weeks of my time wasted by "can do's" who really can't do :( so please ensure you can do what we ask and we'll get along superfine and you'll be paid well and fast :)
The site is going to be called BrandxxxWatcher (remove the xxx), it's purpose is to monitor brand name abuse on search engines and we are looking for a very clean web 2.0 style site index page, other pre sign up page templates for about/contact/inof etc. pages
we require sign up page's template creation and forms styling, the client side management pages template and styling, (there are probably around 10 - 15 core pages to integrate into your design along with add/edit pages too but these will fit into your template and only need minimal work in the form of your web 2.0 stylie design/ css applying to the text boxes already in play) so prepare to design say 1 index, 1 generic pre sign up template page, and around 15 client side admin pages, which is basically the same template but with different forms integrated, 2 html emails so around but not exactly 20 pages, there could be a couple more as we are still jigging the site around currently so flexibility would be an advantage.
Please include a logo too in your design, we may not like your site design but love the logo, in which case we'd award you the logo prize, basically we want the very best design and logo we can and vice versa, your design may be amazing but we have no love for the logo so we'll choose someone else's.
We will also need design and styling for a couple of system notification emails again ensuring that they work on the most popular email clients and platforms.
Design wise we like the web 2.0 style, gradients , subtle tones look that's contemporary and we need the site to look like a costly, quality professional application as we are going to be charging for users to access it, your design should be more like a very cool looking accounting or reporting system , sharp technical and contemporary though rather than stuffy old accounting style .. currently for example, our details page is like this http://www.smiles4u.co.uk/bw1.jpg which needs containing and coloring better to show which listing is being shown in one or more open JavaScript sliding layer (viewers can open multiple layers so it gets confusing as it is now, needs different colors to help this out)
You'll have access to our expert in house php developer to smooth the way to take our bland existing files/forms and integrate them into your amazing design but ultimately you'll have to have coding skills to speed this process up.
For your inspiration please look at the best, cleanest yet exciting web 2.0 applications out there, make ours look like a high flyer and there could be a bonus in there in excess of the prize too ! as we really will reward excellence with a premium so fire up your design programs and get going :)
Ask away whatever you need to know, feel free to list application sites who's styles you think may be relevant, I'll do what we love/hate and why on them.. so you'll see what we like and don't etc.
*As we are offering $2000 prize for this we will expect a profesional job from start to finish, no rushed installation or corners cut and at $2000 we expect some ongoing tweaks which may add up to a couple of days work in the few weeks after installation (and full payment has been made - we won't keep you hanging on of course) so please be aware of this now and enter on this basis.
Please only enter this competition if you can genuinely complete the full instegration of our code into your design etc.
payment preferred by paypal (we are certified) but can do direct bank/wire transfer too, we'll pay in 3 stages, 33% on receipt of initial page code design, 33% on 50% stage and final 34% on completion but are open to negotiation on this dependent upon your location and reputation etc.
We require a logo that is distinctive, and looks professional rather than quirky the site name is BrandxxxWatcher (remove the xxx) we'll need the logo plain plus with co.uk & .com variations, files in psd with fonts supplied (or at least named) for pc. we'd also like a version with space for a tagline under it too please so supply a font that works well for a tagline too.
Feel free to do just text as well as with visuals, binoculars/spyglass/ radar.. whatever as long as it looks web 2.0 style, professional and it's relevant .. go for it, we'll probably hate most but am sure one or two will have us reaching for the winner button.
Winner paid in full by paypal or direct bank transfer upon receipt of psd, font details etc.
This contest was originally listed in multiple categories:
- Logo Design
- Web Page Design (Coded)

Filling in some blanks as we head into two weeks' of MAHA Music Festival coverage ...
I mentioned being in beautiful Breckenridge, Colorado, last week enjoying some well-deserved R 'n' R (that's rest and relaxation, not rock 'n' roll). Because of that personal holiday, I missed this year's Speed! Nebraska Soapbox Riot -- the third annual race held at Seymour Smith Park. We're talking grown men rolling down steep tarmac hills in homemade racecars. It doesn't get any more "American" than that.
Returning from The Rockies -- still a little bummed about missing the derby -- I discovered stuffed inside my mailbox a copy of Speed! Soapbox Riot 300, the companion compilation 10-inch record that commemorated derby day. In addition to being a sort-of competitors' guide to the event, the record represents the hottest young acts on the Speed! Nebraska label, an entity now in its 15th year of operation.
Side One -- a.k.a. "Heat 1 - Rally Champs" -- launches with Riot organizer and label executive Gary Dean Davis' tractor-punk revivalists Wagon Blasters doing "Here Comes Scat Pack," a chomp-chomp rock tune with a dusty, cascading guitar line and GDD screaming the reframe "Accelerate, accelerate, four-on-the-floor!" That's followed by The Really Rottens (Charlie Johnson and Benny Kushner from the Mezcal Bros.), The Filter Kings (fronted by guitarist Josh Dunwoody), and Domestica (The 2011 version, featuring Heidi Ore, Jon Taylor and new drummer Todd Johnson).
Side Two -- a.k.a. "Heat 2 - All Americans" -- features the newest addition to the Speed! Nebraska family, Students of Crime (Wagon Blasters' Robert Thornton's other band), followed by The Third Men (label executive Mike Tulis and Co. covering Big Star classic "Back of a Car") and Lincoln power-punk trio Ideal Cleaners gassing up a hot-rod titled "The Ghost of Rat Tail."
We're talking seven of the finest country punk songs coming to you at 33-and-a-third RPMs, tucked into a screen-printed sleeve and limited to just 300 copies -- a must-have for any music fan or soapbox derby enthusiast. If you missed the race, you can get a copy for a mere $10 at The Antiquarium record store in the Old Market.

Another event I missed while in the Rockies was last week's grand opening of the new Saddle Creek Shop at 721 No. 14th St. in the heart of the Slowdown complex. In addition to selling more Saddle Creek merch than anyone can imagine (a literal warehouse full), the shop carries a variety of new vinyl releases. I'd love to tell you more about their selection except the storefront is only open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays -- when we who can afford new vinyl are at work. Looks like I'll get my first gander at the shop Aug. 11 when Tim Kasher does an in-store celebrating the release of his new EP Bigamy: More Songs From The Monogamy Sessions. The EP's official release is Aug. 16, but The Shop will have CDs and vinyl on hand at the event.

The most influential indie-music TV show of the past 20 years returned to the cable airwaves last Saturday night. Yes, I'm talking about 120 Minutes now on MTV2. The program runs at midnight on the last Saturday of every month (actually, it's the Sunday morning after the last Saturday, but who's counting?).
As if the show never went off the air, there was ol' cueball-headed VJ Matt Pinfield interviewing Dave Grohl, P.J. Harvey and Danger Mouse, while cuing up videos from new acts like Cults and Givers along with chestnuts by Pearl Jam and Radiohead. The best way to watch 120 hasn't changed since it launched in 1986 -- record it so you can skip the commercials. The difference now is that you'll be recording with a DVR rather than a VHS tape deck -- some things do change. Fast forwarding cuts 120 Minutes to about 45 minutes of content, especially if you're skipping lame videos by the likes of Mumford and Sons.
Just like the old days, I "discovered" a couple new bands by watching the inaugural return episode -- North Wales act The Joy Formidable, and Worcester, MA, band Dom. But instead of running out and buying those bands' latest CDs the next day, I added them to my Spotify playlist and listened to them before I went to bed. Like I said, some things do change ...

In addition to electrifying an audience at last Thursday night's MAHA/Hear Nebraska showcase at The Slowdown, Digital Leather let it be known via Puerto Rican blog Mala Vida, Buena Musica, that they just signed a deal with Absolutely Kosher Records, the Berkley-based label that's home to such acts as Goblin Cock, The Wrens, Pinback, The Mountain Goats and Xiu Xiu. Very impressive.

Finally, The Benningtons' frontman Tony Bonacci just finished directing and shooting a short film called "Telephone" that you can view right now on Vimeo. Written by Sam Martin and Jesse Mckelvey of Capgun Coup (who also contribute a song to the soundtrack), the nearly 10-minute short tells the story of what happens when a young blond firecracker (played by Emma Penrose) goes on an accidental date with a creepy old dude (Scott Dombeck channeling Steve Buscemi but without Buscemi's charm). Snarky dialogue and screaming ensue.
The short was edited by none other than Academy Award winning film editor and Omaha native Mike Hill (Apollo 13, Night Shift). How did Bonacci get Hill to work on his project? "I'm friends with him," Bonacci said. "He really loves the film, actually. He's a hilarious guy."

Doctor Who: Silver Nemesis (UK - DVD R2)
The Wilson Bros Carry On Up the Cyber and examine this 25th anniversary tale
1988 was the 25th anniversary of Doctor Who and the decision was taken by producer John Nathan-Turner to celebrate this silver landmark by having the Doctor face two of his most feared adversaries during season twenty-five and tying them into the date the show was first broadcast, November 23rd 1963.
Remembrance of the Daleks kicked off that season and saw the Doctor returning to the junkyard in Totters Lane and facing the Daleks for the final time in the classic series to keep their suckers off the Hand of Omega. After enduring The Happiness Patrol (which most hardened Who fans regard as a stinker), the anniversary season continued with those tattered remnants of the planet Mondas once again threatening to destroy Earth—the Cybermen were back in Silver Nemesis!
The story opens in 1638, with the scheming Lady Peinforte discovering the exact date when a mysterious comet, named Nemesis, will finally crash-land back on Earth. The Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) himself launched the thing and during a jazz performance by Courtney Pine in 1988 is reminded that what he has sown, he is just about to reap, so he and his trusty companion—and pyromaniac—Ace (Sophie Aldred) have to try and intercept it before anyone else gets their hands on it, including a bunch of Neo-Nazis, led by veteran Nazi De Flores (Anton Diffring) who plan to use the contents of the comet as a way for their Fourth Reich to come to power.
Meanwhile, Lady Peinforte (Fiona Walker) and her faithful manservant Richard (Gerard Murphy) have managed to shift themselves forward in time to 1988 in order to get their hands upon the Nemesis comet.
There is no getting around the fact that this story is essentially a rehash of Remembrance of the Daleks—a direct connection with November 1963 is established (in RotD, they materialise in that time, in Silver Nemesis, the comet last made an appearance back then), and the Doctor and the adversaries are battling to get their hands an ancient Gallifreyan artefact that has enormous power and could prove to be the undoing of the universe if it fell into the wrong hands. Even the denouement is awfully similar, which sees one of the Doctor's most feared adversaries seemingly dispensed with for good.
As always, the chemistry between Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred is wonderful—the pair of them almost certainly have the most natural spark between any actor to play the Doctor and anyone playing the companion, with possibly only Troughton/Hines, Pertwee/Manning and Baker/Sladen coming close. Their on-screen relationship is easy-going and natural, which more than suggests that this was also how it was when the cameras stopped rolling. The scene where they are relaxing in a meadow whilst jamming the Cybermen's transmissions shows a tranquillity and a relationship that had never really existed in Doctor Who before with the Doctor and Ace mellowing out and being friends—the closest being the first episode of William Hartnell's The Romans.
Sylvester McCoy gets to show little hints of his darker Doctor, with some of the master manipulator coming to the fore as he literally and metaphorically plays chess with the other factions. Sadly, some of the earlier elements of the Cartmel Master Plan ended up on the cutting room floor in here (in much the same way that the 'more than just a Time Lord' stuff from Remembrance did), but what is in here is fascinating stuff that was never properly explored after the classic series ended—that is unless the revelation that the Doctor is half-human in the Paul McGann TV movie is an exploration of this.
Sophie Aldred's performance is strong here, as she gets to run the gamut of emotions, from scared to gutsy; Aldred's confrontation of the Cybermen in the final episode is great stuff, with a level of pluck, the intensity of which wouldn't really be repeated during her time on the show. Aldred always had the problem of playing a streetwise character who is saddled with the some of the most ridiculous insults ever written (this was due to the fact that this was a family show and Ace couldn't swear in the manner the character would in real life), but Soph handles the toe-curling barbs with as much grace and conviction as she can muster.
Anton Diffring had pretty much made a career out of playing Nazi types because of his chiselled good looks, striking physique and blonde hair; he certainly does what he does best in Silver Nemesis and this is always a good thing, as he has an air of authority that surrounds him and makes him a magnetic presence. If you're wondering just why such a popular European actor was persuaded to appear in Doctor Who… well, let's just say that he was interested in having a job in the UK at around the time when Wimbledon was on. Diffring is known to exploitation fans (such as ourselves) for appearances in films such as Paul Annett's The Beast Must Die and Jess Franco's Faceless. Sadly, Silver Nemesis would mark Diffring's penultimate role, as he died the following year at the age of seventy.
There is something reassuring about having David Banks playing the Cyber-Leader; his imposing stature and distinctive electronically altered tones exclaiming 'excellent' always bring a smile to the lips. The same thing goes for Mark Hardy as his Cyber-Lieutenant, always by his superior's side, and always ready to reply 'Yes, Leader' to pretty much anything. The Cybermen here seem to display more emotion here than in Earthshock—whether this was by oversight or design is open to interpretation.
Before Earthshock, the Cybermen were always in a state of change and there was little in the way of a constant thread; though they were tweaked a little in design for Silver Nemesis (the chrome detailing was the most immediately noticeable thing that was done), they remained essentially unchanged during the eighties and many regard that decade's Cybermen as the definitive ones. Silver Nemesis would be the last time that these incarnations of the Cybermen would be seen on television—that is if you exclude the appearance of a rather battered-looking golf-playing one in a sketch during the final series of Absolutely in 1992.
There are numerous cameos in this story, most of which are very sly and are mainly confined within the group of tourists at Windsor Castle (actor Nicholas Courtney, Who director Peter Moffatt and Silver Nemesis writer Kevin Clarke are among them). Jazz musician Courtney Pine puts in an appearance doing what he does best at the opening of the story.
American actress Dolores Gray puts in what is an extended cameo as an American tourist who is in Windsor tracing her ancestry; Gray seems a little out of step with the proceedings and frequently sounds like a British actor trying to do an U.S. accent in a very over-the-top manner and is quite painful to watch during her scenes. This character just comes across as JNT trying to squeeze another American character (though not nearly as dreadful as the ones in Delta and the Bannermen) into Doctor Who to make it more commercially appealing to America.
For all of the grand scale shift towards more 'serious' Doctor Who (the previous story with the Kandyman notwithstanding), there is a high amount of campery regarding Lady Peinforte and Richard, as they find themselves in the present day and trying to cope with being an anachronism. Fiona Walker quite frequently chews the scenery as though she's teething and it also doesn't really help matters in that Richard looks and sounds like a comedy character that Robert Webb would play…
If we were to start getting pretentious, one could look upon the story of Silver Nemesis as being similar to that of Sergo Leone's The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, with several factions all looking for something valuable, and each party is in possession of one piece of the puzzle and after a series of encounters, they all meet up during the climax for the final showdown that will see the rightful person take possession of the sought-after item. Pretentious? Possibly, but the similarities are there, especially if you consider that the Cybermen weren't originally in Kevin Clarke's story (they were added at John Nathan-Turner's insistence because of the 25th anniversary), so that made three factions looking for the Mcguffin—the Doctor (Blondie), De Flores (Angel Eyes) and Lady Peinforte (Tuco), but if they had been looking for the same item as in Leone's epic, the Cybermen wouldn't have been amused...
Director Chris Clough had already had numerous directorial assignments on Doctor Who, but there are many who would argue that his track record had not exactly been glowing, with stories such as Delta and the Bannermen, Dragonfire and The Happiness Patrol under his belt. There is slightly less of the energy that was evident in Remembrance of the Daleks just a story or so previously. Shooting on OB videotape has the potential to sap some of the dynamism from scenes, but a good director and a good DP can overcome this limitation by getting creative—the location work in the aforementioned Remembrance and the following season's The Curse of Fenric being great examples of this. Clough injects some energy into the story, but it still feels somewhat stiff—things improve during the climax, as the various parties start facing off against each other, with some nice hand-held camerawork and comparatively fast editing.
We should point out that this DVD release of Silver Nemesis does not contain the extended version of the story that was released on video back in 1993. The decision was taken by 2Entertain to concentrate on remastering the version that was transmitted on television because the Special Edition of Silver Nemesis was originally mastered using footage that was not from the original master tapes and as a result, some of the extended footage was a good two or even three generations removed from the master-tape. Whilst the VHS medium was more forgiving of this sort of thing (though many fans had complained about the quality of the reinstate scenes on the VHS release), the nth duped footage would have stood out like a sore thumb on DVD. The additional footage is presented in the special features section, but this will still not please those who love the Special Edition version.
Along with the extended cut of this story, what is also conspicuous by its absence is the documentary 'The Making of Doctor Who', which was filmed whilst Silver Nemesis was in production. It was made for American cable (PBS) and was included with the VHS release of Silver Nemesis, but has not been included here because of the tremendous amount of red tape that has surrounded it since its debut on video. The absence of this documentary, coupled with the nixing of the extended cut, makes it worth holding on to your VHS releases of Silver Nemesis.
The Doctor Who Restoration Team have done their customary excellent job of breathing new life into something that was previously looking a little on the tatty side. Though the latter Doctor Who stories that were recorded on half-inch videotape could not possibly complete in image terms with those shot on one-inch, Silver Nemesis still looks pretty good here—we viewed this upscaled and there were some medium and long-shots that looked fairly ghastly, but any softness or lack of clarity displayed on DVD is certainly down to the source material rather than the transfer.
The colours are pretty vivid; the location work looks particularly good; this entire story was shot on video—well, apart from the exploding model shot—so there is no jarring change between video for interiors and film for exteriors.
Silver Nemesis comes to DVD with a newly-remixed soundtrack; presented in Dolby Digital 5.1, there is a nice amount of fidelity to the audio, not to mention a considerable amount of low frequencies out of the subwoofer. The second episode really presents an immersive soundstage, with all manner of spot-effects flying around; it's really entertaining and there is one certain moment in episode two that has a moment which caused one of your humble reviewers to almost require a change of undercrackers.
Audio Commentar:: Actors Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred are joined by director Chris Clough and script editor Andrew Cartmel. Sylv and Sophie are always great fun on a commentary track and this one is no exception (well, maybe Sylv's a little more subdued than usual, but not hugely). Andrew Cartmel is his usual laconic self, with a good line in dry humour and Clough throws in some nice anecdotes. Things really begin to heat up during the climax of the final episode, as the problems of time constraints and Sophie Aldred taking Clough to task over the issue of being conned into filming a scene up on a catwalk when she's afraid of heights.
Industrial Action: This featurette examines the production of Silver Nemesis. It features contributions from actors Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred and Gerard Murphy, director Chris Clough, writer Kevin Clarke, script editor Andrew Cartmel, stunt arranger Nick Gillard (who went to work on the Star Wars prequels) and also jazz musician Courtney Pine (who reveals that he was a big Doctor Who fan). This is entertaining stuff, even if it does have something of an overlap in terms of information with the audio commentary—it's also interesting to see Sylv wearing a black version of his hat during his interview, which could be looked upon as the natural progression of his Dark Doctor if the series hadn't have been axed.
Deleted and Extended Scenes: This is probably the most controversial extra on this disc, as many fans were hoping for the extended version as mentioned above. Around twenty minutes of scenes that were cut from the broadcast version are presented here and whilst the footage fleshes out some aspects of the storyline, there is quite a bit here that could be considered dead wood and was rightfully excised.
Trails and Continuity: For those of us of a certain age, this is a lovely bit of nostalgia, as the trailers bring you right back to when the story was broadcast. Younger viewers can marvel at just how comparatively underwhelming advertising of programmes was back then. The best part of this feature is that it opens with the trailer for the entire season, which includes specially-shot footage with Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred.
Isolated Score: Keff McCulloch's maddeningly uneven music score is presented unmolested by dialogue and sound effects.
Photo Gallery: Presenting the viewer with numerous publicity stills and images from this particular story and running for around eight minutes, this is good stuff, with plenty of chances to admire the newly chromed-up Cybermen. The most interesting images are those that served as the basis for the portrait of Ace that was seen hanging in Winsdor castle in one of the deleted scenes. All of this is set to Keff McCulloch's score, with some assistance from the Radiophonic Workshop.
Production Subtitles: Hats off to 'em again, as one of the most dependable special features comes up trumps once more with more fascinating information than you could shake an arrow at.
Coming Soon: Dear God Almighty—it's Time and the Rani! It's enough to make you fall off your office-chair in horror...
Silver Nemesis could most charitably be described as mindless fun—whilst it was a nice idea of JNT to bring back the Daleks and the Cybermen for the 25th anniversary (seeing as the Cybermen were silver in colour anyway made them more relevant), the execution of Silver Nemesis just didn't have the same sort of pizzazz that Remembrance of the Daleks possessed, but there are some fun moments and plenty of action during the climax.
Our best advice to the unsuspecting viewer is to just enjoy it—particularly the interplay between Sylv and Sophie—and let it wash over you without paying too much attention to it, otherwise it starts to crumble before your very eyes, like Christopher Lee's Dracula in sunlight.

"It was made for American cable (PBS)"..
For the record, PBS is not a cable organization. It's a broadcast television "network" such as ABC, CBS, or NBC here in the states.

The brains behind President Obama's 2008 election campaign are already strategizing how to re-energize the youth and minority vote for 2012. Their answer: partner with Jay-Z. "I can't believe you've finally heard the chatter about him replacing Larry Summers," Deputy White House Press Secretary William Burton told us. "In all seriousness, keep in mind he was pretty active during the 2008 election, so I don't think it'd surprise anyone that he would be involved again. But it's a little premature." An insider says strategists feel comfortable with Jay-Z because he's a respectable celebrity who can reignite their message of hope. Jay-Z also seems to sing the same tune as Obama. Asked by Forbes what words will come to mind 50 years from now when people say Jay-Z, he rambled: "I hope to inspire . . . I guess Obama took this thing already, but just the hope of how far we can make it and the hope in knowing how far you can go from where you started if you really apply yourself and stay true to who you are."

Hello -
I'm worried that my daughter isn't eating enough food, but I want to start cutting out some of her breastfeeding sessions. Any advice?
My daughter is one year old now and neither of us is ready for weaning, but I am ready to not be nursing her every 3 hours around the clock...! I've already instituted a "no nursing between 11pm and 4am" policy, during which we'll soothe her back to sleep but not nurse her back to sleep. But other than that she's pretty much nursing every few hours. And she doesn't love solids - I can get her to eat a few tablespoons of fruit, and she will try other foods and sometimes eat up to a few tablespoons at a sitting, but I'm just concerned that if I start to cut out other nursing sessions with her not really so keen on eating she won't be getting the nutrition she needs. We've introduced all types of foods by now, and I think it's just a matter of preference.
If I try to feed her and she is hungry and wants to nurse, she just gets all upset and signs for the boob, and won't settle down to eat food, so that has made it tricky to offer food before nursing.
Any tips greatly appreciated!!!
