a lorne michaels episode would be pretty interesting though. hoping richard lewis could persuade larry david to do it as well.

Larry the Cable Guy would be interesting, if he had the balls to not use his character for the interview.

As much as I'd love to hear a Lorne Michaels interview, I get the feeling he'd just stonewall Maron when he tried to delve into anything interesting/controversial.

Wil AndersonPaul McDermottTony Martin
Fleet made sense bcz they have common ground to connect on, even without having known each other before. Anderson has no darkness beyond the aching trials of being a sex symbol and doing the same material for 15 years, McDermott hasn't been a comedian since '94 and has never ever displayed any interest in deconstructing or elucidating his persona, and Tony... well, he's opened up about his hideous family history of late in his two books, but still only where he sees an external gag in it, not to ~share~ anything -- and Maron would have to dig into 25 years of material including around 200 hours of radio highlights to find a reason to interview him.

Stanhope was a pretty insubstantial interview today, yet a fun listen all the same.
I don't know, Stanhope's libertarian rambling revealed him to be kind of an asshole.

I listened to that Nick Offerman interview (on the Kevin Pollack show) recommended upthread. Good interview. That podcast is weird: lots of famous guests, who get to talk for 2 or 3 hours, but the host is such a non-presence, and you really do have to skip the first 15 minute of name droppiness.
― President Keyes, Thursday, 15 September 2011 14:26 (1 year ago) Permalink
Yah, the Kevin Pollack show can be very hit or miss depending on the guest. He's great at keeping things moving but no surfaces are going to be peeled back.
Having said that, the Steven Tobolosky episode of the KP show may just be my fave podcast episode of anything

I like the turn towards actor interviews this week! Jon Hamm (which was great) and Bryan Cranston (which I just began listening to) are, I hope, just the beginning of a new strand of WTF guests.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 6 October 2011 15:00 (1 year ago) Permalink
one of marc's intros this week was so emasculating it was hard to listen to. like in one intro he talked about over obsessing about his body, about being too scared of dead animals to dispose of them himself, and about his fanboy crush on jon hamm.

Didn't intentionally skip over Lisa's episode, thread-wise. I just didn't think about posting when she was on. You're right, though. I like her a lot more now after her convo with Maron than I did before I heard it.

Lampanelli (who I like anyway) was another good piece in the mosaic that is Marc Maron facing his past. It's what makes this podcast a little like an HBO serial. He talked in one or two earlier podcasts about how angry she was when she was teaching, and so now she gets her say.

Kirk Muller was just like anyone in need of a job.
After going through a number of interviews and failing to land a head coaching gig in the NHL, he picked up the phone and started making cold calls. One of the first people he dialed was David Poile and it led to him being named head coach of the American Hockey League's Milwaukee Admirals.
"I think you've got to be proactive," Muller said Monday on a conference call. "A lot of media up in Canada (knew) my whereabouts of doing interviews with Ottawa and Dallas and Minnesota and Jersey and that, (but) you can't just assume that people will think that you're going to be ready or your next step is going to the American Hockey League. ...
"Obviously, I knew the reputation of Milwaukee so that's why I reached out to David."
The Admirals have consistently been one of the top AHL teams and are coming off a season where they finished first in the West Division with a 44-22-14. Earlier this month, former coach Lane Lambert was promoted to an assistant role with the parent Nashville Predators.
Muller spent the past five seasons working as an assistant with the Montreal Canadiens and believes this change will give him the best opportunity to one day take over his own NHL team.
"(The AHL) is a great developing league for players and it's a great developing stage for coaches," said Muller. "For me, I think it's a great opportunity to put my stamp on a team -- to have your own team and get an identity on the type of team you'd like to have.
"You can do a lot of work as an assistant coach, but at the end of the day you don't have the final say."
In recent years, a number of AHL coaches have made the leap to the NHL. It's certainly been a trend this off-season as Dallas (Glen Gulutzan), Minnesota (Mike Yeo) and Winnipeg (Claude Noel) all filled their head coaching vacancies from within.
Poile is the longtime general manager of the Predators and was immediately interested when Muller reached out to him.
"Kirk Muller was everything we were looking for in our development coach," said Poile. "With his playing pedigree, experience as a captain and Stanley Cup winner, and his solid communication skills, we feel our young players and prospects are in great hands."
During his time in Montreal, Muller primarily handled the special teams under Guy Carbonneau and Jacques Martin.
He believes there will be a period of adjustment in Milwaukee. The 45-year-old will move his wife and two daughters to the city over the summer -- he's yet to even visit Milwaukee -- and knows the job will be pretty demanding.
"I expect it will be a lot more work," said Muller. "Being a head coach, you've got more responsibilities and longer hours. But I'm prepared to do that.
"I'm looking forward to rolling my sleeves up and getting to work."
Muller played for six NHL teams during a 19-year playing career, putting up 959 points in 1,349 games.
He spent one season in charge of his hometown Queen's University Gaels before accepting a job with the Canadiens in 2006. Now he's ready to take another step forward.
"It's been five years and I guess like a player you always want the ball," said Muller. "When you're playing, you want to be out there in the last minute.
"I guess now with the coaching I hit a stage where it was a great five years of experience of being there in Montreal, but it's time -- I want to just get out, get my own club and be a head coach."

As 1862 dawned, the American republic was at death's door. The federal government appeared overwhelmed, the U.S. Treasury was broke, and the Union's top general was gravely ill. The Confederacy - with its booming economy, expert military leadership, and commanding position on the battlefield - had a clear view to victory. To a remarkable extent, the survival of the country depended on the judgment, cunning, and resilience of the unschooled frontier lawyer who had recently been elected president.
Twelve months later, the Civil War had become a cataclysm but the tide had turned. The Union generals who would win the war had at last emerged, and the Confederate army had suffered the key losses that would lead to its doom. The blueprint for modern America - an expanding colossus of industrial and financial might - had been indelibly inked. And the man who brought the nation through its darkest hour, Abraham Lincoln, had signed the Emancipation Proclamation and emerged as a singular leader.
In Rise to Greatness, acclaimed author David Von Drehle has created both a deeply human portrait of America's greatest president and a rich, dramatic narrative about our most fateful year.

"Lincoln in all his glory"
Focuses on the torturous last year of Lincoln's fight to end the war and preserve the union. Glosses over his development years and ignores his death. Significant details are given on the emancipation decision as well as faltering attempts to establish separate societies for the races which Lincoln eventually abandoned as a bad idea. Gives great insight into his relationships with his military leaders as he pushed them to close out the war. Grant is discussed as is common but others such as Little Mac and others are brought into focus.


text: Recs and ReadsBy Anne McKay GarrisOnce upon a time, in a lovely little town beside the Gulf of Mexico, there was an Olympic size swimming pool. ĀIt was the only pool in town and exceedingly popular.Ā Members of the community, which extended only as far East as Missouri Avenue at the time, came together at the Big Pier Sixty Pool for parties, swim meets and just simple fun.Ā It was different, somehow, from swimming in the Gulf.Ā Most of the nearby tourist accommodations were small, with no room for swimming pools, so "City Fathers" (there were no city mothers at the time) decreed it must be good for tourism.Ā In fact, most motel guests could obtain passes from their motel management. Years later, when the City Fathers (and probably some Mothers by this time) decided a playground and concession stand were more needed than the pool, they removed it, promising the people of the Clearwater Beach community it would be replaced somewhere else on the Beach. But they eventually went their way, as these people do, and the promise was lost in the mists of history.Ā Only the people of the Clearwater Beach Association remembered.Ā And when the time was right they went to City Hall and asked where our pool was . .. . when it would be built. "You don't need a pool, out there!" was the response.Ā "You have the Gulf of Mexico." "Yes, but . . ." responded the Beach Association, "you promised and we do need a pool for children's games and exercise and swim teams and swim team practice and, yes, pool parties." "Nobody will use it," complained the city officials. Eventually the battle was won and Clearwater Beach now has its new, modern and very usable swimming pool with deep water lanes and shallow water areas and wonderful, modern pool toys. It opens for the 2009 season on March 23.Ā The cost to use it is six dollars or less, depending on your age and the kind of Recreation Pass you use.Ā Hours, for now, are from Noon to 5 p.m., Mondays through Sundays. It's a great place for a party for any age group.Ā You can rent the whole area for your group, after hours.Ā Check it out.Ā It's a fun family place. Meantime, the large rooms at the Clearwater Beach Recreation Center are finally finished, with enhanced views of the water and wonderful floors for the dancers and exercisers and zumba-ers.Ā Check the schedule to find which of these groups you can schedule to join. See you at the pool! |

Our experience with Tom Raper has been great. We purchased our first used 1984 pop-up campers from Tom Raper in 1990 and used it until 2006. We traveled all over the country with it, as our children grew up.
We literally wore the springs off of it then purchased a 2280 in 2006 and had several trips west.
We now are upgrading to a Roo. Two sons have purchased Rockwood pop-ups from Tom Raper. We camped together in Colorado this summer.
Tom Raper RVs has given great service to all of us.

Public service announcement: It's probably better to wait until Halloween to dress up as a zombie this year.
A Miami man decided to have a little innocent fun by dressing up in bloody, ripped clothes and staggering around scaring Miami residents — just days after a grisly cannibalistic homicide sparked Internet rumors of a coming zombie apocalypse.
That said, much of this video is pretty funny — although the tie-bandana look is more office-drone-at-a-Springsteen-concert than slavering-member-of-the-undead.
And the video almost backfires badly, twice: once in the middle, when, filmmakers claim, a pedestrian carrying a gun comes very close to taking out wannabe zombie. (The video is far too lo-res to tell either way.) And less equivocally at the end, which is worth sticking around to watch.

SOUTHEAST TEXAS - by Scott Lawrence/KFDM News
KFDM News has learned law enforcement officers have found a body believed to be that of Tami Higginbotham in Newton County.
Newton County Sheriff Eddie Shannon tells KFDM information provided to law enforcement officers led to the discovery of a woman's body at about 5:45 p.m. Friday in a hunting club off State Highway 62 in Newton County. As we reported at 10 p.m., officers from Orange, Newton and Jasper County investigated the crime scene. An autopsy is pending at the forensic center in Jefferson County.
Shannon told KFDM law enforcement officers could recognize features on the body, including tattoos and other features that fit the description of Higginbotham, 41, of Vinton.
Investigators also discovered other evidence at the scene, according to Sheriff Shannon.
Relatives in Southwest Louisiana reported Higginbotham missing last Saturday, February 9.
Family members say she traveled from Vinton to Orange to meet Joshua Latham, 26, of Orange, about buying a cell phone.
Investigators from the Orange Police Department began searching for Latham and described him as a person of interest in Higginbotham's disappearance.
Latham was arrested in Tennesssee on Thursday night for an outstanding warrant. He was found at a home along with his girlfriend and their two-week-old son.
Investigators from Orange County interviewed Latham in jail.
Stay with KFDM and kfdm.com for the latest on the investigation.

I'm going through and finding old poems, I wrote this one about 2 years ago, It's pretty interesting, so I thought I'd share it.
Your watching,
Your thinking,
Of me,
I know you are,
Don't lie.
Your lying,
I know you are,
Tell them the truth.
Tell them about my wrists,
You saw them,
You kissed them.
You kissed the wounds,
To make them better,
Now make me better,
Tell them.
You won't,
You won't tell them,
You're saving me,
You don't want me gone.
You know I don't want to be told on,
You know I want to stand by your side,
To never let go.
I'm here,
I'm not letting go,
Stop screaming,
I'll take care of you.
Your caring for me,
It's supposed to be the other way around,
Your crying,
Let me up,
Let go of my wrist.
They aren't deep I swear,
I promise,
Let go,
Stop kissing my wrist,
The aren't cleaned yet.
You know why I didn't,
You understand why
I didn't clean them,
You're staring at me,
Don't search my eyes,
There's nothing but lies.
Don't search me,
Out of my pockets,
The blade is gone.
You're leaving,
I know you are,
Stop please,
I need you,
I'm sorry,
I didn't mean it,
Help me please.
I'll take your help this time,
I promise I will,
I won't push you away,
Or set your limits off,
Please, I need you.
I need you bad,
Look at me,
See my eyes,
See my tears,
See my fears.
My fears,
You're leaving,
You're not coming back.
I'm gone forever now,
I'm sorry
I didn't think you'd come back,
I'm dead now.
I'm watching-you,
I'm thinking-of you,
From where I am,
I'm watching a silent tear,
Run down your face,
As one runs down mine,
I want you back,
I'm sorry I upset you,
I didn't mean to,
I didn't think you'd be back.
If I'd known you'd come back,
I wouldn't have ended it,
I would have stayed,
I can't live without you,
I love you so much,
I guess you know that now,
Except that its too late,

Picture McKayla Maroney and President Obama Are Not Impressed
They're looking at you, Mitt Romney's campaign manager.
News Girl from "McKayla Maroney is Not Impressed" Meme Reportedly an Accomplished Gymnast
"I get stopped all the time on the street and people are like: 'Ohmigod! You are that girl who does the face! Do it! Do it! Do it!" said Maroney. "And I do it. I'm happy to be famous for something. But there is actually much more to me than just the face that earned me my moment of fame."
When not making her face, Maroney works as a gymnast, flipping and tumbling around the non-face parts of her body, remarkably, are what she has spent most of her life training.
"I'm kind of good actually," says Maroney. "I was in the Olympics for it and everything. It was pretty great."
And that's where the meme girl's story gets even more remarkable: it turns out the infamous "not impressed" photo was taken at the Olympics, an athletics festival held every four years, after she failed to win a gold medal.
"Strange but true," said Maroney, laughing. "It was on national TV, too. On tape delay. But it was still on. If you track the history of the meme, it actually goes back to the Olympics when they were held in London. Amazing, right?"
Picture The Most Tender Moment of the Olympics?
Do not question effective training techniques.
Picture McKayla Maroney Now in Charlie Brown Form
She would pull the ball on Charlie Brown and then beat him to death with it.

News U.S. Women's Gymnastics Team Inspires Tiny, Muscular Girls Across the Nation
"My daughter Kyla is really really tiny but she has an almost alarming amount of muscles for someone so small," said Jeff Grayson, an Atlanta father, of his 8 year-old daughter. "We didn't know what to do with her. We wonder if she would have to be institutionalized. But now she can't stop talking about being a gymnast. She's really excited."
The Graysons are like families all across the country.
"Our little Kendra is 9 years old and only two-feet tall," said Mindy Matthews of Spokane, Wash. "We assumed she would have to live with us forever because someone so tiny and with such a squeaky voice is unlikely to ever get married or have a career. But now we all have a goal thanks to those ripped sprites of the gymnastics team. Thanks, little ladies!"

Having a rib removed is cheating in the sport of gymnastics masturbation.

The girl's name Crystal \c-rys-tal, cr(y)-stal\ is pronounced KRISS-tal. It is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "ice". 19th century coinage. A transparent quartz gemstone, usually colorless, that can be cut to reflect brilliant light. The TV series "Dynasty" made the name famous in the 1980s with a character named Krystle. Chrystal a variant spelling probably influenced by Greek "khrysos" meaning "gold". Cr- spellings are Spanish/Italian. That Chrystal is cold as ice.

(Falls Village, CT) America's oldest continuing summer chamber music festival, Music Mountain launches a musical fireworks weekend with two acclaimed groups — The South Shore Syncopators on Saturday, June 30th (6:30PM), kicking off the summer's popular and crowd-pleasing Jazz Series, with a prohibition themed pre-concert dinner at the Falls Village Inn (5PM); plus the return of the St. Petersburg String Quartet slated for Sunday, July 1st (3PM) performing an all Schubert program. The weekend concerts are just a sampling of the numerous chamber, jazz and country groups that will grace Music Mountain's summer concert stage performing weekend concerts in Falls Village thru September 9th.
The South Shore Syncopators return for a second summer to launch the 19th season of the Music Mountain Jazz Series! Long Island's premiere dance orchestra brings the 1920s and '30s back to life with accurate renditions of great music from the pre-swing decade for the Saturday evening concert. Ten instrumentalists and six vocalists will display their flair for projecting the original and invigorating spirit of music from the era of Harlem cabaret, the Ziegfeld Follies and Vaudeville to the Art Deco world of Busby Berkeley film musicals – guaranteed to have concert-goers dancing all evening! As an added treat, go back in time to the jazz age and sip a gin fizz or French 75 with a 1920s pre-concert prohibition themed dinner – speakeasy food and prohibition era cocktails will be served! ($60 price includes the special dinner at the Falls Village Inn and concert. Reservations must be made by June 29th (860-824-7126).
The first Sunday of July welcomes back the St. Petersburg String Quartet performing an all Schubert program that will include Schubert: String Quartet in A Minor, Opus 29, D. 804 "Rosamunde"; Schubert: String Quartet in G Major, Opus 161, D 887; and in a Music Mountain premiere — Schubert-Stallman: Piano Sonata #13 in A Minor, D. 664, Opus 120 transcribed for flute and strings by Robert Stallman. Performing with the St. Petersburg Quartet will be guest artist Robert Stallman, flute. A special post concert discussion will be led by long-time Music Mountain president, Nicholas Gordon: The String Quartet Literature through The Lens of the Music Mountain Repertory.
Formed in 1985, the St. Petersburg String Quartet has steadily risen to fame performing all over the world, including Spain, Germany, Denmark, Israel and the U.K. In addition to being a highly respected flutist, critically acclaimed Robert Stallman is a recording artist and master teacher collaborating with chamber ensembles all over the world. Critics have called his Schubert "elegant" and superb."
Located in Falls Village, Connecticut, Music Mountain is located on Music Mountain Road, where a short scenic drive will bring music lovers to Gordon Hall with ample & free parking.

On vendor prefixes and WODs
With yesterday's revelation that Opera are going to support WebKit prefixes, the vendor-prefix issue which first raised its head back in February, was once again brought to the fore. Personally I don't think that vendors supporting each other's prefixes is a good thing.

Seniors, get ready to say goodbye
Over the past few months, I have written about how other students view Lindhurst High School. I collected their opinions about many topics that vary from losing our librarian to trash on campus, which was my very first column. My writing has reflected not only my views but also Lindhurst students and past alumni. This column is my last, so I dedicate it to the seniors who are about to cross the stage at graduation.
Magdalena Avila, a junior at LHS, said, "Class of 2011, you're on to the real world and I wish you all the best of luck, because in a year, I will be in your shoes. Strive for the best and don't settle for less — and good luck to all of you."
Magdalena also said: "A special shout-out to the soccer boys: Martin Rivera, Gabriel Garcia and my cousin, Alexis Lopez. Lastly, Mario Miramontes — thank you for always being there. I'll miss you guys."
Violet Potts, a sophomore at LHS, said, "To all the seniors, you are some of the most amazing people that LHS has ever had. Most of them are very kind, and caring. As an underclassman, I want to say that I am proud of those who are graduating, and I hope that their lives fall into place."
Brigitte Zermeno, a junior, advised seniors to "leave the drama in high school, because it can only get worse when you get older."
Another junior at LHS, Jamie Yang, said, "To the 2011 graduates of Lindhurst High School, I'd like to congratulate you all! Enjoy the freedom that college brings and make the most of it. To my favorite junior-senior, Ashley Hickey, I'll miss you the most. I know you will go far in life with your high ambitions and your wonderful personality."
Underclassmen are not the only people who have to say goodbye to seniors. Seniors will be saying their goodbyes and be missing some of people they have grown close to over the past years. Personally, I'll be leaving my best friend, Michael Donald, which breaks my heart. He is both my best friend and my boyfriend. I wish him the best in his life, and hopefully in the near future, we will find our way back to each other.
Not only will I be leaving Michael, but I'll be leaving my other friends, Jamie Yang and Kassandra Camacho. They have been there for me through thick and thin, and I only wish I was able to stay around another year to continue this journey with them.
Jamie and Kassandra: Not everything will work out perfectly, but regardless, you two will find your way and make a name for yourselves. You'll go far, and I wish you both the best anyone could ask for. I love you both; enjoy your senior year.
Seniors, say your goodbyes and prepare for new hellos. This is our month, so let's make it the best.
Ashley Hickey is a senior at Lindhurst High School. This is her final column for Education.

Sophia Bush stated, "Thank you Mr. President. @BarackObama speaks up for #Equality today.
Russell Simmons added, "thank you Mr. President for your support of gay marriage."
Ryan Seacrest retweeted an NBC News post that read, "In an interview with ABC News, President Obama said today: 'I think same-sex couples should be able to get married.'"

text: There are underpants aplenty in ENO's 'new' (actually 13 year old) Carmen, but, contrary to reputation, director Calixto Bieito seems unwilling to drop them. When it gets down to the real meat and potatoes, only one todger is served up. To the orchestral opening of the third act, a wafty, homoerotic dance solo suggests the soldier in question can only be at peace in his fantasies. Well, if you've got to stick a willy in Carmen, I suppose that's not a bad place to do it.

The movie-title pushes an idea back into the brain: is any of the gentlemen around here able to help me to get this marvellous aftersales market feature : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDrzMGdYWZc Not, that I would need it, where I live. I only want to make a visit at the TÜV-inspection to let it register in the papers |

I only know how to build a simple flamethrower from ignition parts that you put in the exhaustpipe, that thing seems a bit more advanced. |

Zac Posen Rose Clutch
April 3, 2008
post written by Bag Bliss blogger: Deysa
Zac Posen Rose Clutch
Head on over to the Zac Posen section over at eLuxury (dot com), they just got in some new items. While I was browsing the Posen newbie's, I noticed this clutch. Where shall I begin? First of all, I want to address the fact that the name of this piece doesn't match the clutches features at all. This Posen piece is named the Rose Clutch. Hmm… an accessory with a name like 'Rose Clutch' should appear a bit more feminine, don't you all think? I don't know how you bagistas feel about this accessory, but personally, this particular piece reminds me of a Transformer of some sort. It must be all those geometric shape features and its sharp edgings; and the new "Z�? logo (found right in the middle of the bag) isn't so appealing to me, either. Although I feel that this bag is a bit too complex for my taste, I can name a couple of great features found on this Posen, too. Zac Posen dresses many of its bags in great leather, and this clutches grained nappa leather seems incredibly smooth. I admire its grey suede lining as well, and the clutches flat base is also a plus in my book! The 'Rose Clutch' definitely sports a distinctive but cool design. So, what do you ladies think? Would you carry this clutch?

The development of instrumentation to measure material properties has paralleled our understanding of their molecular properties. From the use of U tube viscometers to measure the viscosity of Newtonian liquids, we now use viscometers that routinely measure viscosity as a function of shear rate together with rheometers that can characterize the solid-like properties of the same material.
Cold Water Rheology Kit
The Cold Water Rheology Kit provides controlled sample cooling for a Model 35 Viscometer. The circulating chiller is capable of regulated sample cooling; from ambient temperature to -10°C.
The amount of time required to cool a 200 Centipoise silicone calibration fluid from room temperature to -7°C in approximately 30 minutes (with sample stirred at 100 RPM). The Digital Controller allows temperature regulation of +/- 0.1°C. Sample temperature is indicated on the display screen of the circulator bath.Ordering Information Part No Description 207952 Cold Water Rheology Kit 115/120 Volts 207953 Cold Water Rheology Kit 220/230 Volts Specifications Digital Controlled Refrigerated Bath 240 Volts 50 Hz 5 Amps
120 Volts 60 Hz10 AmpsTemperature Range -20 to 150°C Capacity 6 Liters Heater Power 1000 Watts MAX Flow 7 or 15 Liters/Minute
iX77 Rheometer
The FANN® iX77™ HPHT Rheometer has emerged as a very robust and accurate instrument for testing rheological properties at 600°F and 30,000 psi. While the expanded range of temperature and pressure is in itself a compelling reason to use the iX77 Rheometer, the instrument offers numerous features that improve accuracy and efficiency.
The iX77 Rheometer is fully automated and comes equipped with user-friendly software that helps the operator set up the test parameters ("test sequence") and designate the output types and timing. A full-capacity computer with a Windows® XP operating system is itegrated into the Rheometer so that test progress can be viewed at any time on the integrated touch screen monitor.
After the cell is assembled and filled with the fluid sample, the user loads the desired test sequence (or generates a new test sequence if requried) and simply clicks the "Start Test" button. The instrument does the rest on its own, including sending email notifications to the user and others who are designated to see the results. The outputs are delivered in CSV format, and while the test is running, the user can zoom in on a particular temperature/pressure combination, view raw data, call up graphical displays and generally monitor all aspects of the test.Ordering Information Part No Description 101543382 iX77™ Rheometer Specifications Maximum Temperature 600°F (316 °C) Minimum Temperature 23° (-5°C) (with optional chiller Material No. 204160/115V or 381464/230V) Maximum Pressure 30,000 (206843 kPa, 2041 atm) Sample Volume 7.76in3 (175 cm3) (nominal) Power Requirements 230 Volt, 60/50 Hz, 1 KVA Viscosity Range 0-300 cP @ 300 rpm Minimum Viscosity 5 cP @ 600 rpm For viscosity testing below ambient temperatures Fann offers an optional chiller for the iX77™ Rheometer.

Rheometer Model 280 Hand-Powered
Requires very little field maintenance, and is the lightest field instrument available for determining plastic viscosity and yield point.
The Model 280 is a hand-powered, two-speed rotational Rheometer designed specifically for field testing the rheological properties of drilling fluids. A small crank drives the rotor at a pre-selected constant speed through a precision gear train governor. Rotor speeds of 300 or 600 are obtained by setting the position of the speed control lever. Measurements are read directly from the deflection scale. The readings obtained are used to determine the plastic viscosity and yield point of the test fluid.
Gel strength measurements are read directly from the deflection scale. When making gel-strength measurements, force is applied manually by turning the gel knob and observing the maximum reading on the deflection scale before the gel breaks.
The API recommended Torsion Spring, Rotor, and Bob are supplied with the Model 280 Rheometer. A stainless steel sample cup is also included. An optional High Impact plastic carrying case is available.
The Rheometer Cup Heater allows measuring viscosity at elevated temperatures. Heater Cups are fitted with a removable stainless steel sample cup for easy cleaning, and are designed to fit snugly on the Rheometer base. The Thermostat control allows heating up to 200°F (93°C).Ordering Information Part No Description 206984 Model 280 Rheometer
Rheometer Model 286 Variable-Speed Electronic
A precision rotational viscometer designed for conveniently testing the rheological properties of drilling fluids using two modes of operation.
The variable mode allows continuous speed from 3 to 600 rpm, while the second mode offers settings at conventional speeds of 100, 200, 300, 600, and gel strength (3 rpm). Closed loop speed control allows accurate testing of shear thinning fluids because the speed remains locked at the desired speed throughout testing. The rpm readout resolution is 1 rpm on a digital display. The dial indication is read directly through a cover-mounted magnifier.
The Model 286 Rheometer utilizes a universal power supply input and will operate at either 120 VAC, 230 VAC, or 12 VDC. This instrument is not affected by frequency variations.
The API recommended Torsion Spring, Rotor, and Bob are supplied with the Model 286 Rheometer. A stainless steel sample cup and a plastic carrying case are also included.

Rheometer Model 50SL High Temperature
Fann coaxial cylinder viscometers are the most widely used of this type in the world
The Model 50SL High-Temperature Rheometer is a rotational viscometer designed for testing fluids at temperatures to 500°F (260°C) and pressures to 1,000 PSIG (7,000kPa) in a coaxial cylinder chamber. Heating, pressurization and rotor speed are controlled by input from specialized software.
The xpRt50™ software is optimized for use with drilling fluids and fracturing fluids, and is designed to allow a single computer to control two Model 50 Viscometers using RS-485 serial communications. Once the sample has been loaded and the heater bath raised for testing, all control of the viscometer is accomplished via the computer and the specialized software.
The torsion springs are designed for ease of interchangeability, which permits the shear stress range of the instrument and, hence, the viscosity measuring range to be optimized for a given testing problem.Ordering Information Part No Material 209429 Rheometer Model 50 w/RCO Hastelloy, 115 Volt, 50/60 Hz 209430 Rheometer Model 50 w/RCO Hastelloy, 230 Volt, 50/60 Hz 209426 Rheometer Model 50 w/RCO 316 Stainless Steel, 115 Volt, 50/ 60Hz 209427 Rheometer Model 50 w/RCO 316 Stainless Steel, 230 Volt, 50/60 Hz Additional Equipment Required Part No Material 205525 IBM compatible computer with Fann's xpRt50 ™ Control and Communication software installed - controls two Model 50 Rheometers simultaneously Specifications for Model 50 Rheometers Power Requirements 115 Volt 50/60 Hz, 1000 Watts Motor Drive Variable from 3 to 600 RPM Sample Cup Speed Sample Cup/Bob and Sample Heat Thermo Bath, 600 Watt, Max Temp 500oF (260oC).

Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons
In the Oracle series, Stockwell owns a shop in each game: the Lynna City Shop in Labrynna and the Horon Village Shop in Holodrum.
He also operates the Advance Shop found in both games.
The Minish Cap
Stockwell's Shop sells common items such as Mysterious Shells, Bombs, and Arrows, and it is the only place Link can purchase the regular Boomerang, Bomb and Quiver upgrades.
Stockwell claims he is too busy to feed Fifi, his dog who lives alone in Stockwell's vacation house in the Lake Hylia region.[1] So he asks Link to feed her in his stead, giving him some Dog Food in a bottle. In return for feeding his dog, Link gets to keep the empty bottle as a gift.

Sunday 9 January 2011: Bed-Head
Well technically this is Claudia after an attack with a hair brush. I don't normally bother brushing her hair as, like mine, it's a bit uncomfortable combing through all those curls. But she grabbed the hairbrush from the bathroom today and attempted to tame her coif... With little success, admittedly, as the brush became entangled in her fringe.
Once I'd stopped laughing at a little girl with an enormous hairbrush stuck to her head I decided to brush her hair. That was clearly what she was after.
Anyway this is the result, what I like to call "The Mane". This is the reason I only brush my hair right before I wash it - apparently my daughter has inherited my unruly curls to a tee as she is every inch the lion I become in this situation, although far less frightening :)

Julian Fellowes
The Right Honourable The Lord Fellowes of West Stafford DL |
Born | Julian Alexander Fellowes 17 August 1949 Cairo, Egypt |
Education | Ampleforth College |
Alma mater | Magdalene College, Cambridge |
Spouse(s) | Emma Joy Kitchener (m. 1990); 1 child (Peregrine) |
Julian Alexander Kitchener-Fellowes, Baron Fellowes of West Stafford DL (born 17 August 1949), known professionally as Julian Fellowes, is an English actor, novelist, film director and screenwriter, as well as a Conservative Life Peer.
Contents |
Early life and education [edit]
Fellowes was born in Cairo, Egypt, the youngest son of Peregrine Edward Launcelot Fellowes[1] (by his wife Olwen née Stuart-Jones),[2] a diplomat and Arabist who campaigned to have Haile Selassie restored to his throne during World War II.[1] He has three older brothers: Nicholas, wordsmith David, and playwright Rory.[3]
His childhood home was in Wetherby Place, South Kensington,[4] and afterwards at Chiddingly in East Sussex, where he lived from August 1959 until November 1988 and where his parents are buried. The house in Chiddingly, which had been owned by a whodunnit writer called Clifford Kitchin was within reach of London where his father, who had been a diplomat, worked for Shell. Fellowes has described his father as one "of that last generation of men who lived in a pat of butter without knowing it. My mother put him on a train on Monday mornings and drove up to London in the afternoon. At the flat she'd be waiting in a snappy little cocktail dress with a delicious dinner and drink. Lovely, really." A decided influence to arise from this place was the friendship that developed with another family in the village - the Kingsleys. David Kingsley was head of British Lion Films, the company responsible for many Peter Sellers comedies. Sometimes "glamorous figures" would visit the Kingsleys' house. Fellowes has said that he thinks he "learnt from David Kingsley that you could actually make a living in the film business." [5]
Fellowes was educated at several private schools in the UK: first at Wetherby School (Wetherby Place, South Kensington, London), then at St. Philip's, a Roman Catholic pre-preparatory school, also in Wetherby Place - (Fellowes is 'a cradle Catholic') - and finally at the Catholic public school Ampleforth College. He read English Literature at Magdalene College, Cambridge, graduating with the degree of MA, and where he was a member of Footlights.[6] He studied further at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art (London).
Career [edit]
Television [edit]
Fellowes moved to Los Angeles in 1981 and played a number of small TV roles for the next two years. He believed his breakthrough had come when he was considered to replace Hervé Villechaize as the butler on the TV series Fantasy Island, but the role was given to the much older British actor Christopher Hewitt.[7]
After returning to Britain, Fellowes played the part of Kilwillie in the television series Monarch of the Glen. Other notable acting roles included the part of "Claud Seabrook" in the acclaimed 1996 BBC drama serial Our Friends in the North and the "2nd Duke of Richmond" in the BBC drama serial Aristocrats.
In 1991, he played "Neville Marsham" in For the Greater Good, again for the BBC, directed by Danny Boyle. He portrayed George IV as the Prince Regent for the second time (the first was in the 1982 film The Scarlet Pimpernel) in the 1996 adaptation of Bernard Cornwell's novel Sharpe's Regiment & Major Dunnett in Sharpe's Rifles. He launched a new series on BBC One in 2004, Julian Fellowes Investigates: A Most Mysterious Murder, which he wrote and introduced onscreen. He was the presenter of Never Mind the Full Stops, a panel-based gameshow broadcast on BBC Four from 2006 to 2007. He created the hugely successful and critically acclaimed period drama Downton Abbey for ITV1 in 2010.[8] He also wrote a new Titanic mini-series that was shown on ITV1 in March/April 2012.[9]
Films [edit]
Fellowes wrote the script for Gosford Park which won the Oscar for Best Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen in 2002.[10] In late 2005, Fellowes made his directorial début with the film Separate Lies, for which he won the award for Best Directorial Début from the National Board of Review.[citation needed] In 2009, Momentum Pictures and Sony Pictures released The Young Victoria, starring Emily Blunt, for which Fellowes wrote the original screenplay. Other screenwriting credits include Vanity Fair, The Tourist and From Time to Time, which he also directed, and which won Best Picture at the Chicago Children's Film Festival, the Youth Jury Award at the Seattle International Film Festival, Best Picture at the Fiuggi Family Festival in Rome and the Young Jury Award at Cinemagic in Belfast.
Fellowes has continued his acting career while writing; for example, he unsuccessfully auditioned for the role of Master of Lake-town in the 2012-2014 The Hobbit series.[10] Films Fellowes has appeared in include Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend, Damage, Place Vendôme, The Scarlet Pimpernel, and Tomorrow Never Dies.
Novels [edit]
Fellowes' novel Snobs was published in 2004. It focused on the social nuances of the upper class and concerned the marriage of an upper middle class girl to a peer. Snobs was a Sunday Times best seller. In 2009 he published the novel, Past Imperfect, also a Sunday Times best seller. It deals with the Débutante Season of 1968, comparing the world then to the world of 2008.[citation needed] He also wrote, under the pseudonym Rebecca Greville, several romantic novels in the 1970s.[11]
Theatre [edit]
As an actor, Fellowes appeared in several West End productions, including Samuel Taylor's A Touch of Spring, Alan Ayckbourn's Joking Apart and a revival of Noël Coward's Present Laughter. As a writer, Fellowes penned the script to the current West End musical Mary Poppins, produced by Sir Cameron Mackintosh and Disney, which opened on Broadway in December 2006.

Parliament [edit]
On 12 January 2011, Fellowes was elevated to the Peerage by being created Baron Fellowes of West Stafford, of West Stafford in the County of Dorset, and was introduced in the House of Lords the following day,[12] where he sits on the Conservative benches.[13]
Fellowes' other interests [edit]
Fellowes is the Chairman of the RNIB appeal for Talking Books. He is a Vice-President of the Weldmar Hospicecare Trust, Patron of the South West branch of Age UK, Patron of Changing Faces, of Living Paintings, of the Rainbow Trust, and of Breast Cancer Haven, as well as supporting charities concerned with the care of those suffering from Alzheimer's disease, and other causes. He recently opened the Dorset office of south-west adoption charity, Families for Children.
Fellowes is on the Appeal Council for the National Memorial Arboretum and he is also the Patron of Moviola, an initiative to facilitate rural cinema screenings in the West Country.[14]
Family [edit]
On 28 April 1990, Fellowes married Emma Joy Kitchener LVO (born 1963; a Lady-in-Waiting to HRH Princess Michael of Kent),[15] the great-grandniece of Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener. Fellowes has publicly expressed his dissatisfaction that the proposals to change the rules of royal succession were not extended to peerages, which would have allowed his wife to succeed as 4th Countess Kitchener;[16] instead, the title became extinct on her uncle's death due to the lack of male heirs. On 9 May 2012 The Queen issued a Royal Warrant of Precedence granting The Lady Fellowes of West Stafford the same rank and title as a daughter of an Earl, as if her late father had survived his brother and therefore succeeded to the title.[17]
They have one son, Hon Peregrine Charles Morant Kitchener-Fellowes (born 1991). The family resides in Dorset [18] and on 15 October 1998 they changed their surname from Fellowes to Kitchener-Fellowes.[19][20]
Fellowes was appointed a Deputy Lieutenant (DL) of Dorset in 2009.[21] He is also lord of the manor of Tattershall in Lincolnshire[22] and President of the Society of Dorset Men.
His wife, Lady Fellowes of West Stafford, is story editor for Downton Abbey and works with charities.[23]

Report: State pension funds bankroll Pontiac studio; taxpayers lose on films
State teacher and state employee pension funds bankrolled the Pontiac motion picture studio that produced "Oz, the Great and Powerful," according to a report just released by Michigan Capitol Confidential.
The report's author, Tom Gantert, senior correspondent with Capitol Confidential, said Michigan Motion Picture Studios — on what once was GM property on Centerpoint Parkway in Pontiac — has missed its last three payments on $18 million in bond obligations.
Formerly called Raleigh Studios, it's in the news this week for Royal Oak native Sam Raimi's movie, "Oz: The Great and Powerful," which was filmed there last year and opened across the nation Friday.
The studio was contacted about this story but staff said one of the owners, Linden Nelson, couldn't comment because he is out of town.
Michigan Capitol Confidential is a news service of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, a conservative think tank.
Under a deal made in 2010 by then-Gov. Jennifer Granholm, the State of Michigan Retirement Systems is on the hook for those missing payments, according to Michigan Capitol Confidential. The retirement system has made three payments since February 2012 totaling $1.68 million.
Michigan Motion Pictures Studio didn't respond to Gantert's requests for comment.
Terry Stanton, state treasury department spokesman, said 80 percent of the money for the payments comes from the Michigan Public School Employees pension fund, with remaining balance from three other pension funds.
The State of Michigan Retirement Systems includes the Michigan Public Schools Employees' Retirement System, the Michigan State Employees' Retirement System, the Michigan State Police Retirement System and the Michigan Judges' Retirement System.
As of Sept. 30, 2010, the Michigan Public School Employees' Retirement System and the Michigan State Employees' Retirement System were unfunded by $21.7 billion. Continued...
Joe Henchman, vice president of legal and state projects at the Tax Foundation in Washington, D.C., has analyzed state film credits around the country and said they seldom deliver promised economic benefits.
"These are some of the problems you get when the state plays venture capitalist with taxpayers' money," Henchman said.
Michael LaFaive, director of the Morey Fiscal Policy Initiative at the Mackinac Center, told Michigan Capitol Confidential that he would like supporters of the film tax credit be held financially responsible for the studio's defaulted payments.
"The supporters need to be made to feel the sting of their bad choices," he said. "Ultimately, you and I are on the hook for this. If supporters of these corporate welfare programs were responsible for covering the losses, there'd be far fewer corporate welfare programs. Right now, the political class has no skin in the game."
The state reduced the tax credit from $100 million when the studio was being built in 2011 to $50 million last year. Snyder has $25 million budgeted for tax credits this year.
Michiganians should see 'Oz' for free
Jarrett Skorup, also writing for Michigan Capitol Confidential, said while "Oz" cost about $200 million to make, Michigan taxpayers chipped in substantially for the production through the state's generous film subsidy program.
The state "paid more per taxpayer than the average price of a movie ticket" — so, Skorup argued, "Michigan residents should be seeing the film for free."
Michigan has 4.5 million individual taxpayers, and the state gave the Michigan Motion Pictures film studio $39.7 million to shoot the movie in Pontiac, according to Michigan Capitol Confidential.
"That works out to a subsidy of $8.82 per taxpayer while average ticket prices nationwide are $7.96. The subsidy was granted in 2010 when the program refunded up to 42 percent of Michigan expenses to filmmakers — essentially a check from the treasury to Hollywood studios." Continued...
Tom Gantert wrote in Michigan Capitol Confidential this week that the Michigan Senate Fiscal Agency found for 2010-11 that "even among the most optimistic of assumptions, the film program brought the state only 11 cents per dollar spent.
"The subsidies cost Michigan taxpayers $125 million and returned $13.5 million in 2010-11."
