------------------Inspected by Number 26
The play doesn't work too well for radical feminists- mainly because of how it tends to reduce womanhood to simply sex. It states that a woman IS her vagina...what if she's had it mutilated permanently somehow- is she not a woman anymore? Menstruation is mentioned once, and it's probably the most consistent contact that a lot of women have with their girly parts.
I don't know. It was mediocre. I saw it fairly recently, and it left a bad taste in my mouth.
If you are not that biased like Joryuu, it is a book you should read... I think it brings together some different sights on beeing a woman.
Some, not all Joryuu...
And I like that kind of thoughts. It brings you to think about things you have forgotten long time ago...
gillians gal
Interestingly enough, I recieved my copy today. I read it in the middle of church. I personally thought it was a lovely piece of work, however, I agree with Joyruu in that the play was not nearly as radical as reviewers made it out to be; it was simply radical in that the reviewers were a little right wing.
I am one of those violent feminists, and I have a couple things to point out:
1. The use of the word "vagina" was wrong throughout most of trhe book. Eve Ensler was more often than not speaking about the vulva, and that word did not appear once in the book. For example, the woman who had to shave her "vagina." You can't shave a vagina. That's like shaving the inside of your mouth. http://www.scarleteen.com/body/female_anatomy_2.html Perhaps the author would benefit from this page?
2. This spot is actually for me to reiterate my hatred of misuse of the word "vagina."
------------------ My menstrual diaryUpdated as often as my uterus
if you read the introduction carefully you will find why she uses the word vagina. she complains that she doesn't know a better word to talk about this part of the female body...
what would you suggest...
she doesn't use vulva, cause she thinks most women couldn't know the exact meaning of "vulva". and you have to admit, that you can't say "shave a vulva" either...
------------------This space reserved for the free exchange of thoughts and ideas.
lately I've seen it lumped in with sort of repackaged commercial pseudofeminist entities like the Lifetime channel, and that seems kind of apt. on reflection, I really can't decide whether it truly is subversive, or if it just seems that way & makes women feel like feminists without being socially unacceptible.
but the essentialist undercurrent was a problem for me -- the underlying assumption that women are bodies(vaginas) and that bodies(vaginas) and women are interchangeable. and more than that, it is someone's vagina that makes her a woman & is the most important part of her as a woman.
so mainly ideological concerns. but when I wasn't busy uncovering somewhat problematic underlying narratives, it was a lot of fun. which is the way most things go, I guess.

Check around your area to see if there is a showing benefiting the VDay organization!
One of the flyers I've seen on campus so far promoting the event: "Did you know a female's clitoris has twice as many nerve endings as a male's penis? Twice!..." hummm...
------------------If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space!
share your opinion: http://www.geocities.com/tkaterisha/survey.html
I think it's kind of dumb, not ONLY that Ensler keeps using "vagina" (because there is NO WAY IN HELL I am going to "shave my vagina," as I think Mophead pointed out) but that I *don't* and *won't* define myself by a single body part.
Plus, for anyone who's taken a bio class, we know that the penis is analogous to the CLITORIS, not the vagina. Most women don't even orgasm due to the vagina, and it doesn't have many nerve endings in it save for around the opening. Most pleasure that women get from sex is due to the clitoris - not the vagina.
Now, if this was the Clitoris Monologues, and Ensler would educate her readers about what a vulva is, then maybe I'd be up for seeing it. But as it is, the whole thing seems like a way to get women to twitter nervously while the people on stage yell "VAGINA!" really loud - not exactly the radical feminism that Ensler and a lot of people think it is.

this is what you get for liking it."Sebastian, you're in a mess, you had a dream they called you king of all the hipsters - is it true or are you still the queen?" --Belle and Sebastian, "Put The Book Back On The Shelf"
i saw them performed by ensler a few years ago, with my whole family (interesting experience to say the least), which was rather good. some of the monologues are incredibly well done, and many are less well done. my mother took issue with the lack (at least in ensler's performance, i havent read all the monologues, and i don't know if she performed all of them) of a monologue about vaginal childbirth, which to her was a very important experience regarding her vagina. the monologues are very white, and very heterosexual (yes, there are a few lesbians but not many) and all the women are "women born women" (whatever *that* means or signifys).
my campus is putting on a production. this year they are doing it "by the books", meaning through the V-Day fund, which sets extreme limits on what can and can't be done. they can only perform certain monologues (i've heard that this year the selectionis very hetero and white, although i don't know for sure), which leave the directors very little leeway. last year, some people at my school wrote their own, which were incredible, and encorporated their experiences not only as women but as trannies and as people of color and as dykes and so on. in addition, a large percent of hte proceeds from any show must go to local shelters (which is great) but part of the proceeds go to "women in afganistan" which is a questionable cause...sending money to an organization who's politics you don't necessarily agree with isn't high on my list of things to do...but whatever. i really like them anyway, but i would never consider them "radical" by any means. not at all in fact. entertaining, yes, touching, yes, hte moaning one is just plain *fun* (my goal is to be able to perform that one)....happy v-day anyway, kids!-rek

FOOD FORTUNATA (formerly of Sockeye) to call into Dricore Classics Ltd

Registered: 10 years ago
Posts: 113
The man behind the badge of shame that is Wheel Chair Full Of Old Men Records will be doing a rare media appearance.
The purpose is to promote the 500th release from this very unimportant anti-intellectual but strangely prolific "record label" which boasts such "talent" as BOY IN LOVE, LETTUCE VULTURES, TV WATCHERS, BREATHILIZER, and of coarce SOCKEYE.
To get the message out to the masses he has wisely chosen Olde Tyme DRICORE Radio Program to aid in the public awareness campaign.
By choosing this particular show (Wed 1am-4am EST) at least 10 new people will have heard the "tard core" gospel for the 1st time and approximately 0 will follow up with any interest in the label or it's ventures.
So as the first Dricore guest of the 2011 season, let's welcome FOOD to the air. Listen for this upcoming early January call in.
Coming soon to an Early Morning Olde Tyme Family Time Dricore Radio Show near you !

== User Manual ==
== User Manual ==
The client user manual is available
The client user manual is available the download link above and on [[Digital Archiving and Retrieval Tool Client User Manual|wiki ]].
Revision as of 13:59, 6 April 2007
The Digital Archiving and Retrieval Tool (DART) client is an open-source client application with the purpose of automatically versioning and archiving files and metadata by communicating with the DART server. The current version is 126.96.36.199. Employing a version control system, the DART client offers an alternative to popular revision control applications such as Subversion and CVS.
The design processes of mechanical engineering projects are often not captured when engineers are working on a project. Hence, this application aims to capture the design process in the least obstrusive ways possible by automatically archiving CAD and other relevant files of a team of engineers to a version control system.
The DART client uses a BSD-style license.
The DART client is written with the .NET Framework in the C# programming language and the Windows API. The installer uses the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System for the Windows installer.
Repository Access
Utilizing Java servlets as the core functionality of the back-end, the DART server allows for the stored file versions to be downloaded and viewed with a web browser.
User Manual
The client user manual is available inside the download from the link above and on this wiki page.

I was wondering what the total cost would be to replace the water pump? I know that the part if only around $30.00 - obviously the labor is going to be the large expense. I read a response about this repair if you are doing it yourself and he said that he got it done in around 90 minutes... Is that realistic? If that is true, a shop should not need more than 2 hours. I am on a fixed income and these things are really hard for me to afford. Obviously, it is something that I need to address. The better educated I am on the timeframe and what is involved with this job, I will have a good idea what the cost should be and not get gouged.
have the same problem?

The Philadelphia Flyers have wasted no time in making moves since the NHL and the NHLPA agreed to a memorandum of understanding. Flyers insider Anthony SanFilippo has reported that the Flyers have acquired goalie Brian Boucher and prospect Mark Alt for minor leaguer Luke Pither.
Alt, a 6-4 Defenseman and second round pick of the Hurricanes in 2010 is currently in his third season with the University of Minnesota.
But Boucher is certainly no stranger to Philadelphia. He was the Flyers first round pick in the 1995 draft, and has had multiple stints with the club (97-02, 07, 09-10). In 2011, Boucher signed a two-year deal worth $950,000 per year with the Carolina Hurricanes, but played in just 10 contests last year as a shoulder injury landed him on the Injured Reserve. It's hard to argue that Boucher was missed by the team too much, as he obtained a 3.40 GAA, an atrocious save percentage of .881%, and posted a record of 1-6-1.
"Boosh" has also spent the lockout training at the Flyers Skate Zone in Voorhees, where the Flyers will be holding training camp. It's possible he be at camp as early as Monday.
The trade, although rather questionable, once again places doubt over Michael Leighton's future with the Flyers organization. A cult hero during the Flyers '09-'10 Stanley Cup run, Leighton was signed to a one-year, one-way contract with Philadelphia worth $900,000. He spent the previous season with the Adirondack Phantoms of the AHL, posting a 28-26-1 record in 56 games with a GAA of 2.58.
The move certainly isn't about money, as both have reasonable cap hits. It's likely that Boucher was brought in to push Leighton through training camp, but will be sent down to the Phantoms for at least the time being. Boucher's deal signed in the 2011 offseason was a two-way deal, and would have a cap hit of $950,000 in the minors as well.
As the season is almost ready to get underway, the Flyers backup goalie situation will be a situation worth watching.

text: Package: noteedit Version: 2.7.1-2 Severity: grave Tags: sid Hello, This is a grave bug filed against your package because it depends on libqt3c102-mt, which no longer exists, thus rendering yor package uninstallable in unstable. As part of the C++ ABI transition, this library has moved to the libqt3-mt package. Simply recompiling and uploading your package should be enough to fix this; as per this mail [1], you need not bump your Qt, kdelibs or aRts build-dependencies. Beware, though, that that may not be the case for all the involved librares. Also, make sure that you build the package in an up to date and clean sid environment, so that final dependencies are correct. Please do this as soon as possible in order to accelerate the Qt/KDE transition to testing. [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/09/msg00000.html Perhaps you find that your package fails to compile with gcc4. If that's the case, there's probably a bug about it in the BTS, and it may include a patch. If not (or if you have doubts about the correctness of the patch), you may be able to find a fix in upstream's CVS, or in the Ubuntu distribution. If your package fails only in arm, m68k, and hppa, see instructions in the above mail. Finally, if there's a strong reason for which your package should not be NMUed, please note so in this bug report. Prospective NMUers will read your reasoning, and will decide if it's strong enough to delay their upload. Thanks for your cooperation, and happy hacking! P.S.: There may be an already reported bug against this package for this very same reason. I've checked for that, and will be merging the bugs soon. The reason for still filing this bug was to have the opportunity of including the small bits of information above. I apologize for the inconvenience.

It's kernel internal thing, the errno is never actually delivered to userland, it just appears in ktrace. Don't you happen to have "old" (like more than 6 months) kdump? kdump contains special code for such ktrace records, and it should print 'RET read RESTART', rather than 'read -1 errno -3 ...'.

- Protests rock South-East, South-South
- FG fell into a trap by arresting, detaining Kanu – Ononuju
Major cities in the South East and South-South zones of Nigeria have in the last one month recorded frenzied efforts by various groups agitating for the creation out of Nigeria, of the Sovereign State of Biafra.
All through the weekend, especially across the South East geo-political region and parts of the South-South agitators for a Biafran nation embarked on peaceful protests paralysing businesses and causing panic among all.
The immediate cause was the continued detention of one of their own and leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, and Director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu by security agencies. Thus from Asaba in Delta state, through Onitsha, Anambra state, Port Harcourt, Rivers state to the coal city of Enugu, pro-Biafra sympathisers called out their members to protest the perceived illegal detention of Kalu.
However, the development has continued to be the subject of analysis by keen watchers who see undercurrents beyond the arrest of Kalu as responsible for the protests.
Analysts hold that protests that would cause vehicular movements to be disrupted along all the major roads must have other propelling forces beyond the arrest of Nnamdi Kalu.
At press time, Nigerian Pilot learnt that the air of protest has overwhelmed major towns and cities of the South-East region with the commercial city of Aba worse gripped.
The agitators though non-violent, quickly reminds one of the 30-month fratricidal war that engulfed the whole nation from 1967 to 1970 led by late Dim , Lt. Col, Chukwuemeka Odimegwu-Ojukwu, Ikemba Nnewi
The recent agitations are with support from the Movement for the Actualization of the State of Biafra, MASSOB, a secessionist movement, which was the precursor of the agitations and led by one Chief Ralph Uwazurike.
During such demonstrations, schools, markets and public buildings and commercial activities are either shut or disrupted with members of the public sympathetic to the course joining the demonstration in support. Although security agents have over the years arrested and prosecuted leaders of these groups, the agitations seem not to ebb, rather splinter groups spring up every day. Today it is difficult to determine the number of these associations, as many of them operate underground.
To show its seriousness, MASSOB recently called on the international community to rezone the Nigeria. The Assistant National Information Director, Mr Sunny Okereafor, said his group has already presented a vehicle plate number, a flag, bearing United States of Biafra, drivers and vehicle licences, tax receipt, international passport and currency at the World Bank, symbols of an independent nation.
"We are calling on the international community to split Nigeria into six geo-political regions so that every region will go and be on its own because we want peaceful co-existence. We are a non-violent organization and we are introducing non-violence in all the struggles for self-actualization in the whole of Africa".Okereafor said.
He further said that his members are ready to die for the secession of Biafra Republic from Nigeria insisting that their mission to break the South-East from Nigeria was in the interest of the Igbo race. He said there were several Igbo people who believed in MASSOB's mission but would not identify with the group for fear of incarceration. MASSOB is a revolutionary movement pushing for a separate state of Ndi'gbo.
"Not every Igbo man will identify with MASSOB openly because they are afraid that they may be arrested, thrown into prison or executed. But we, the die-hard, have prepared ourselves for such. The groups of Igbo youths in MASSOB are really willing to sacrifice their lives for the betterment of Ndi'gbo", he stated.
Going by the foregoing, questions are being asked whether the agitations are real. Are these groups genuinely fighting for the rights of Ndigbo or are they political puns being used by some politicians to achieve selfish purposes? For now opinions on this remain divided.
Ohaneze Ndigbo, the umbrella body of Igbos has decried the activities of MASSOB. Speaking through the National President of Ohanaeze Youth Council, Mr. Okechukwu Isiguzoro, it kicked against the agitation advising the agitators to drop the idea. He said it was better for Ndigbo to remain in Nigeria and struggle for their fair share of the 'national cake' than fight for self-determination with its attendant consequences.
However, it was discovered that many prominent Igbo leaders are rendering their support to the groups, but they prefer to do so quietly.
FG fell into a trap – Ononuju
However, Public affairs analyst, Dr. Katch Ononuju has said that the agitation for Biafra as well as Biafra as a republic is for real.
In a telephone interview with Nigerian Pilot last night, he said that by arresting and detaining Kanu over the Radio Biafra matter, the federal government fell into a trap set by agitators for a state of Biafra.

Play To Your Strengths
The tactical element of FIFA Manager 10 is less developed than that of Football Manager 2010 and other games – however there is still an opportunity to get the most out of your players by using certain pre-match options.
Via the Tactics screen under Team, you can prepare for the next match by picking players in advance – but which players will you pick?
This depends on the formation you have chosen. FIFA Manager 10 features a range of formation options to choose from, so it is a good idea to get a picture of your squad's strengths and weaknesses before selecting a formation.
For instance, if you have strong defenders, you might consider playing with three at the back rather than four or five in order to dominate the midfield with an extra man.
- slide 2 of 3
Suggested Formations and Positioning
The most commonly used formation in British and European football is 4-4-2, where the players line up with 4 defenders, 4 midfielders and 2 attackers. Note that all formations are broken down in this manner of Defenders-Midfielders-Attackers, except in cases of deep lying forwards or defensive midfielders.
A common variation on 4-4-2 is 4-1-2-1-2 which features 4 defenders, 1 defensive midfielder, 2 midfielders, 1 attacking midfielder and 2 attackers.
Other formations you might try are 4-3-3, 4-4-2 diamond (in which the 4 midfielders are positioned on the pitch as a diamond) and 3-5-2.
Note that players should be picked according to their position wherever possible. A central defender (CD) won't be too happy about playing at right back (RB) unless he already has experience of playing there. Similarly strikers almost exclusively want to be in front of the oppositions goal, so avoid moving them to the wings unless they have played there before.

Playing Style and Roles
From the tactics screen you can also select how your team will play in the upcoming match. The following settings can be selected:
As well as the more obvious special motivations such as offering a win bonus or declaring the upcoming fixture the "Season's Most Important Match" overall team tactics can be set based on player Committment, how often the opposition are Closed Down, whether your team engages in Time Wasting when they're ahead, adjusting the Crossing Height of balls into the box and adjusting the position of the Defensive Line.
You can also decide whether the team makes their attacks down the left or right wing, or through the center, instruct them to play the Offside trap or make counter attacks and also select an attacker to play as Target Man or any other player to act as Playmaker.
Also important are the roles your players adopt on the pitch. Use the tactics screen to select everyone from the team captain to the last man to take a penalty.
Some of these have more importance that it might seem – the best players to take a penalty can be easily identified according to their skill at taking penalties (rated as with all skill attributes out of 100) whereas selecting a captain can be a little tougher.

Chapter 1 : Gorgeous Meets Blondie
|Rating: Mature
|Chapter Reviews: 5
Background: Font color:
"Rorie, get up please!" My mother's voice called.
"Five more minutes!" I yelled sleepily.
"You said 'five more minutes' ten minutes ago. Please get up. Allie wants to play with you!" She said.
I groaned and threw my covers off me. If I didn't love Allie so much, I would not have gotten up.
I dragged myself into the bathroom for a quick shower and then got dressed. By the time I got down to my aunt's living room, I was completely awake.
Mum, Allie, and I were spending the summer at my Aunt Mona's house. Which I was really happy about. Mona was my favorite aunt, and her daughter, Bree, was like a sister to me.
Everyone was already at the table eating breakfast when I got there. "Oh,there she is." Mum said smiling.
I plopped down on a chair and poured some coffee. I looked at Allie "Good morning, Allie." I said.
"Hi!" She said brightly.
"She's growing up so fast." Bree said shaking her head.
"I want to go swimming!" Allie exclaimed.
Mum looked at me expectantly. "I'm guessing I have to take her?" I asked.
"Yes, since next week you're going off to school, and I'll have to take care of her by myself."
Only my Mum would make someone feel bad about going back to school. I had been homeschooled for the last three years, but I'm doing my last year at a real school. What's even better is that I'm going to Bree's school.
"Oh, now, Veronica," Aunt Mona said. "Stop making Rorie feel bad about wanting to go back to school. I think it's a very responsible choice she's making."
"Thank you, Aunt Mona." I said,smirking at Mum. She stuck her tongue out at me. Real mature there, Mum.
I turned to Bree. "Want to come with me and Allie to that lake she likes swimming in?" I asked.
"Um, no. I've got sunburn, remember?" She said sadly.
It was hard to forget, she was as red as a tomato. We're all hoping it goes away by the time school starts next week. "Right." I said grimacing slightly.
A little bit after we had lunch, I changed into shorts and a bikini top, while Allie changed into her bathing suit and we set off to the lake.
On the way there, Allie talked the way all four year old kids do: a mile a minute. She talked about her friends back home, how she was going to miss me when I left, and she hinted she would like to have ice cream after swimming. Kids.
When we reached the lake, Allie ran full speed into the water. "Don't go out to far!" I called as I kicked off my flipflops and sat down. I put my feet in the water, and pulled out my latest book, The Princess Bride. It was by a muggle author named William Goldman. The book was actually surprisingly interesting. Princess Buttercup's undying love for her lost love, Westley was beautiful.
Just when the book was getting good and Princess Buttercup was about to be thrown into a sea of eels, I was distracted by yelling behind me. I turned around to see about five guys around my age racing towards the lake. They all jumped in, splashing me and my book with water.
I wiped my face and the pages of the book, intent on not letting these guys ruin my reading time. I went back to reading, only to be distracted seconds later by more yelling. I looked up, the five guys were splashing some younger kids. They left Allie, who was oblivious to her surroundings, alone.
Which is good, because I'd hate to have to beat these guys up, because, they were pretty cute. Especially the one who seemed to be the leader of the group. He had platinum blonde hair that was dripping with water. His body was nothing to complain about, either. He definitely looked like he worked out. He pushed his hair out of his eyes and looked over at me, smiling. I quickly looked back down at my book.
A few minutes later, I was splashed yet again by the five cute, but very annoying guys. And again, I wiped my face and my book. These guys had to be muggles, there was no way seventeen year old wizards acted like this. All rowdy and hyped up on Merlin knows what.
I rolled my eyes, and attempted to start reading again, when more water splashed on me. If I didn't know any better, I would say they were splashing me on purpose, but no one is that obnoxious, right?
I looked up, and they were all laughing, splashing eachother. I looked over at Allie, she seemed to be enjoying herself. I noticed the blonde guy staring at me,and again, I looked down. A few moments later he was swimming over to me. Ugh.
He rested his arms on the grass, next to my legs and looked up at me with his sparkling grey eyes. "Hey, Gorgeous," he said. "What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to read." I replied in annoyance.
"Oh, reading doesn't work out so well with me either." He said.
"That doesn't at all surprise me." I said flatly.
"So, Gorgeous, how about you come in the water?" He asked smirking.
"No, I'm good." I said, hoping he'd take the hint and leave. He didn't.
"Well, you wanna watch me do back flip in?"
"Want to watch me do a canon ball?" He asked.
"No, but I'd love to see you get hit by one." I said, glaring at him.
"You're funny, Gorgeous. I like that." He smiled.
What a great smile, I thought. I shook my head. "Look here, Blondie, I didn't come here to have a conversation with you. I came here to read my book, and make a four year old girl happy." I said. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm very wet, and I would like some ice cream."
I shut my book closed and stood up. "Allie, come on, let's go get some ice cream!" I said slipping on my flip flops.
"See you around, Gorgeous." Blondie said swimming backwards over to his friends, smirking.
"Yeah, let's hope not." I muttered.
Allie walked over to me, soaking. "Time for ice cream?" She asked smiling.
"Yes, sweetie, time for ice cream." I said returning her smile.
"Why are you all wet?" She asked as we started walking.
"Apparently, I looked like I wanted to get wet." I answered, thinking about Blondie and his stupid muggle friends.
"Oh," she said. We didn't say much until we reached the ice cream parlor. Allie got Sherbert ice cream with sprinkles, and I got classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough.
"What does 'arse' mean?" Allie asked, looking up at me curiously.
"Excuse me?!" I asked in bewilderment.
"What does 'arse' mean? I heard one of the older boys call the other an 'arse' what does it mean?"
"You listen to me, Allie, that is a very bad word that I don't ever want you to repeat, do you understand?"
"Yes, but what does it mean?"
"Nothing you need to worry your sweet little face about."
For the record, I'm sure the guy was being a total arse, especially if it was Blondie.
A few days later, I had forgotten all about Blondie and his stupid friends, and Allie had forgotten about the word 'arse'. She had begged me to take her to the park, and since it was the last day of summer, before I went off to school, I agreed.
Allie wanted to go on the swings, and when I tried to push her from the back, she said she wanted me to push from the front.
"Okay, Allie, don't kick me." I said. She did. In the knee. I almost collapsed.
"Hey, Gorgeous." A voice from behind me said.
"Oh, no." I groaned. I turned around, and there was Blondie, as good looking as ever, wearing a polo shirt and black slacks.
I put my hand on my hips. "Are you stalking me?" I asked.
He shrugged. "Did you ever think fate brought us both here, Gorgeous?"
"No." I said turning away from him, and pushing Allie on the swings, this time, I was not kicked.
"So, how come I haven't seen you around here before, Gorgeous?" He asked, unfazed by my rudeness.
"Because, I don't live around here, Blondie." I answered, my back still to him.
"Interesting." Blondie said.
I didn't reply, suddenly hands sliding around my waist. "Hey!" I yelled jumping away from Blondie, only to be kicked my Allie. "Ouch, Allie!"
"Maybe that would work better if you were behind her." Blondie said, smirking.
"You are an idiot!" I exclaimed, rubbing my leg.
"I'm not the one getting kicked, am I, Gorgeous?" He said.
"Why are you bothering me?!" I asked.
"Why are you fighting me, Gorgeous?" He motioning between us. "This works!"
"No, it doesn't!" I retorted. "This doesn't work one bit! Believe me, I am not your type. And you know what? I would appreciate it if you stopped calling me 'Gorgeous' because that isn't my name. I have a name and I'd like to be be call-mmm!"
Blondie had kissed me. He had completely interupted my ranting, wrapped his arms around me, and kissed me full on the mouth. Oh my Merlin, it was amazing! Um, I mean horrible.
I get my first kiss from some annoying blonde muggle. Spectacular.
Blondie pulled away, smirking. "And-I umm..." I mumbled incoherently looking at him.
He continued smirking. "See you around, Gorgeous." He said lightly tapping my bum, and then walking away, looking quite pleased with himself.
I just stared after him. At one point, he turned around and waved to me, and continued walking. I didn't wave back, just so you know.
"You kissed a boy!" Allie giggled.
"No, I didn't, a boy kissed me." I paused. "A boy kissed me!" I exclaimed in disbelief.
Allie giggled. "I'm telling!"
Oh, no! "Hey, Allie, how about some ice cream?"
"What happened?" Bree asked when I walked into the room we were sharing.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Something happened, I can tell by the look on your face, now tell me, what happened!" She exclaimed.
"All right, fine, but please don't tell anyone." I said sitting down on the bed.
Bree scoffed, looking offended. "I'm insulted you would think I would tell anyone."
I rolled my eyes. "Do you want to know or not?" I asked.
I told her all about meeting Blondie a few days ago at the lake, and then about him kissing me today.
"Oh, my Merlin! Rorie, you got your first kiss!" She exclaimed.
"Yeah, from some muggle! What would my Mother say?"
"Rorie how dare you associate with a muggle like that?!" Bree imitated Mum's voice.
"Shut up!" I said. "Ugh, I can't believe this!"
"Rorie, I think you're the only girl who isn't excited about her first kiss." She said shaking her head.
"Bree, you know I had this planned out. And you know how I feel about these kinds of things." I said quietly.
Bree sighed. "I know, hon, but there's nothing you can do about it now, so don't be too upset, okay?"
"Okay." I smiled. "I just can't believe some muggle kissed me. I mean who kisses complete strangers?! At least I never have to see him again."
"That's the spirit! Just focus on going to Hogwarts where there will be no muggles, just hot wizards. I can't wait for you to see the gorgeous boys of Slytherin." Bree said grinnng.
"That sounds amazing, but please don't ever say the word 'gorgeous' again." I pleaded.
"You got it. Come on, let's pack."
"Okay." I said.
I was so excited for Hogwarts. I would be around witches and wizards my age, and have friends other than Bree. And I would be away from stanger kissers like Blondie.
Or that's what I thought...

Jets and Patriots Round 3: Why Are the Jets Still Talking?January 13, 2011
Let me start off by saying that I am a die-hard Jets fan. In my nearly twenty-five years of existence on this planet, the Jets have consistently let me down, in one way or another. Either they have a 4-12 season and fail to make the playoffs, or they go 9-7 and dominate the first two rounds of the playoffs, but lose in the AFC Championship game. Don't get me wrong, I still love the Jets. It's just that I have learned to live with the fact that the team's mission in life is to eternally torture its fans.
Have the Jets played great this season? By any means, the answer is no. Have they found a way to win all season? Yes. As bad as the Jets have been, they have still managed to put together a ten win season. And to top that off, just last week, they have managed to upset Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts in Indianapolis during the first round of the AFC playoffs. I don't care how you win in Indy, a win there is impressive as Peyton Manning does not like losing at home.
In any event, I believe that the Jets' current level of play (regardless of the fact they won last week) does not warrant the amount of smack talking that is coming out of Florham Park. Let's compare and contrast Tom Brady's alleged smack talking to that of the Jets.
Brady said that he "hates" the Jets. Harsh, yes, but over the top, not at all. Brady also pointed towards the Jets sideline during the Pats' rout of the Jets in December. Poor taste? Sure, but excessive, not at all.
Now let's just look at some of the Jets' chatter. Rex Ryan for two years has been bad mouthing the Pats. I have no problem with that. But the way Rex speaks makes him and the Jet organization seem classless at times. He doesn't just make comments, but he throws personal jabs at individuals. His whole rant about Peyton Manning being better than Brady, and how Brady doesn't study as much as Manning, was straight up ridiculous and unnecessary. Does Rex sit in the film room with Brady? Does he watch Brady when he's at home? I don't think so.
The latest retarded comments came from the Jets' second best corner back, Antonio Cromartie. Cromartie basically tore Brady apart, and called him an as*hole. It's one thing to criticize the guy's talent, but just calling him an as*hole is a little inappropriate and distasteful.
I'm all for firing up your team. Talk smack about the other team. But draw the line somewhere. And let's not forget, Brady is already one of the most intense players in the NFL. Do you really want to motivate him and pump him up either further?

About Me
I'm a UNIX geek from Germany. I am originally from Hamburg and now live in Frankfurt so expect my main contributions for now to cover those cities. For more information, you can consult my homepage.
I haven't even visited half of the places I would like to travel to. I've been to France, Denmark, United Kingdom, Austria, the United States, Japan, Iceland (well, technically), the Netherlands, Canada (again, technically, anyway) Belgium and of course various places in Germany.
My special interests - when I am visiting some place, that is - are general sight-seeing, museums, architecture, and the crumbling leftovers of the past.
You can send me a message via my homepage. Leave me your email address or instant messenger id and I'll get in touch.

Course of Study
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Program is designed to allow graduates the option of beginning a career in either the military or civilian life immediately upon graduation or furthering their education in graduate school.
During the first two years, students receive intensive instruction in mathematics and basic physical sciences as well as fundamental principles and techniques of engineering. Students are introduced to the basic tools and problem solving techniques they will use throughout their career. The final two years are spent in a laboratory intensive environment.
In the third year, students begin to apply their knowledge to solving specific engineering discipline problems. Some of the courses have end-of-semester projects that begin to develop the ability to apply knowledge in open-ended problems.
In the fourth year, more focused courses cover a broad spectrum of electrical and computer engineering topics. A completely open-ended design experience, where students can exercise creativity solving current engineering problems, spans the senior year. Designing, building, testing and evaluating projects in such application areas as instrumentation and data acquisition, robotics, energy conversion, communication, and controls is typical of this experience. Constraints such as economics, safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics and social impact are considered. This experience builds upon the fundamental concepts of mathematics, basic sciences, the humanities and social sciences, engineering topics and communication skills developed during the earlier college experience. The design team experience allows close coordination with an individual faculty member. The scope of the project is designed to match the requirements of practice within the electrical and computer engineering discipline.

A scam-busting initiative spearheaded by East Sussex County Council has been recognised at an awards ceremony.
The work of the National Trading Standards Scams Team in fighting mass marketing fraud and protecting the most vulnerable people in communities was highly commended in the MJ Achievement Awards.
The team is hosted and founded by East Sussex County Council and funded by the National Trading Standards Board. Since 2012 officers have been working to combat mass marketing fraud which costs UK consumers around £3.5 billion every year. Scams are often targeted at the vulnerable or disadvantaged.
The National Trading Standards Scams Team launched following the discovery of a "victim list" – the details of people who have previously been scammed which is bought and sold by fraudsters. The list contained more than 100,000 names.
Research by East Sussex Trading Standards found a gap in the system that let victims of mass marketing fraud down which led to the development of the team.

A Northern Ireland resident chose to stay away from sex for one whole year with an aim to raise more that 50,000 dollars for charity. Pete Lynagh, who swore off sex on New Year's Day 2013, raised cash for 'Free to Shine' organisation through his Facebook page 'Pete's Chastity for Charity'.
The cash raised by the boxing teacher and DJ has been utilized to set up an office and utilize staff, permitting the philanthropy to twofold the amount of young ladies it has spared from the sex slave exchange from 70 to just about 140.
The Sydney Morning Herald reported that the Australian-established composes salvages Cambodian youngsters from sex subjugation and gives them training grants.
Weekends were a smear of gatherings, clubs and one-night stands. By his own particular induction, Pete Lynagh was totally shallow. Getting ladies was his thing.
At the same time a considerable measure can change in a year. In the wake of pledging to stay completely off sex for 12 months on New Year's Day 2013, the 33-year-old has revealed a variant of himself he is blissful to see in the mirror.

For me, the argument for Trout is not simply his WAR (though his offensive WAR is still a smidge higher than Cabrera's for the full year).
Comparing the two, there is not a huge separation with what they've done offensively. They are clearly 1-2 in terms of offensive production in the American League. Cabrera is the best 3 hitter in baseball. Trout is the best 1 hitter in baseball.
Defensively, you don't have to use statistics to see Trout's impact in center field. He's Gold Glove caliber out there. GG defense at a premium (second- or third-most important defensive position) is an important factor.
As for a Triple Crown winner HAVING to win the MVP... hey, there's precedent for him not.
I just disagree that there's not a separation between the two offensively. 56 more RBI? That's a
gulf. And I know that Trout's a leadoff hitter, but he's a leadoff hitter in an AL lineup, don't forget. Austin Jackson's had a nice season, but he was hurt for a bit and during that time Quentin Berry was the leadoff hitter with Omar Infante or some mis-mash of cruddy ass parts ahead of Miggy. Trout's had Aybar and Ianetta in front of him. It's clearly not as strong a group of table-setters, but it's not batting leadoff ahead of the pitcher either.
Trout had 109 ABs with RISP and did a great job w/ a .330 BA. Cabrera had more opportunities to drive in runs with 174 ABs with runners in scoring position - but he also did a better job of it with a .356 BA in those spots. Cabrera, while he was given more chances, did do a better job of driving in runs.
And I don't accept the run produced state either because there's a great deal to be said for being able to both score and drive yourself in. You're doing in 1 plate appearance what would otherwise take 2, so why shouldn't you get to double count it? Those extra bombs where all situations where Cabrera did the work of 2 batters - that counts for a lot.

Mountain Jam @ Hunter Mountain – 6/6 – 6/9
Photos and Words: Paul Citone
The Ninth Annual Mountain Jam festival took place June 6th – 9th with one the best lineups to date including host Warren Haynes and Gov't Mule, Primus, Phil & Friends, The Avett Brothers and Widespread Panic to name a few. Set on the base of beautiful Hunter Mountain in the Catskills, you couldn't ask for a better festival space. With some less than spectacular weather in the forecast it looked like a washout, however, the music must go on.

The pre-party to the festival officially kicked off Thursday afternoon with bands on the outside stages (one main stage and a small second stage) and the inside Healey Brothers Hall, a small venue inside the main lodge. The rain was pouring down but the festivarians came prepared with rain gear (including the tapers). I arrived in time to catch the set by Rubblebucket. They brought their "A Game" despite the rain. This band knows how to cross between the lines of psychedelic rock, dance and new wave jazz. Their dynamics and dancing on stage reminded me of being at a more modern George Clinton experience. Inside Healey Brothers Hall was Minnesota-based band The 4onthefloor. This smaller venue was packed. I was told to check these guys out and they are down home rockers with a touch of jam. They are also on the road this summer all across the U.S.A. playing medium-sized venues, so be sure to give them a shot.
Promptly at 8:00, Primus took the stage as the rain kept a steady pace but it didn't hamper the band one bit. They tore into a great setlist starting with Those Dammed Blue-Collar Tweekers off their 1991 album Sailing The Seas Of Cheese. The show continued with Fistifcuffs, Moron TV and the always impressive Southbound Pachyderm. Claypool's eccentric performance style and stage antics made you wonder if the whole thing is an act, but a good friend of mine once told me that Claypool barged in to a tour bus at a show he was at wearing a red one-piece longjohns, combat boots and a black militia helmet with a chrome spike on top, so I'm a believer for sure. Primus closed with Harold of the Rocks followed by a short encore of Tommy the Cat.
Friday brought more rain and it was looking like a total washout, but the weather turned out to be not too bad. I arrived just in time for fan favorites The Avett Brothers, who are becoming Mountain Jam regulars. They opened with Salina, a slower ballad, then dived into the traditional Avett-style song Go To Sleep. The Avetts have caught some flack for their current album The Carpenter being too commercialized, but the songs thrive in the live setting. The band seemed to be in great spirits pushing and shoving each other in fun onstage. Scott came out to the rim of the stage singing a song and was greeted with a pair of flying underwear in his face. Avett laughed, looked back at the band and held them up. Many in the audience rolled with laughter. Later, the North Carolina-based band delivered such usual Avett classics as Will You Return?, Laundry Room, Murder In The City and Kick Drum Heart followed by the encore of I Am Love And You and Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise. Unexpected highlights were the traditional bluegrass cover Old Joe Clark and The Prettiest Thing by David Childers & The Modern Don Juans.
Widespread Panic headlined the main stage, as this is their only East Coast festival appearance of the summer. Their first set was a little lackluster, possibly due to all the rain as the crowd was a red and yellow board of raincoats. The Georgia jam titans opened up with Give followed by Ribs and Whiskey. The night got started in earnest as soon as they played Junior (which also closed the first set). The band rose to the occasion with their second set, opening up with Little Kin into Pigeons. Guitarist Jimmy Herring's amazing solo talents make this band a must see. Panic was joined by Bill Evans on sax and Danny Louis on keys for an exceptional cover of Low Spark of High Heeled Boys by Traffic. For their encore, Widespread Panic treated the crowd to Expiration Day followed by a great rendition of Travelin' Light.
Saturday we woke to a forecast promising two beautiful festival days free of rain. I arrived just as Mountain Jam favorites Michael Franti & Spearhead took the stage. Franti opened with the fun I Don't Wanna Go followed by customary songs such as My Gangsta Girl, Hey World, Yell Fire and I'll Be Waiting. While Franti often plays these staples, they never get old. Warren Haynes joined Franti and the band onstage for Life Is Better With You. Franti was a maniac in motion the whole show, bouncing into the crowd from one side of the festival area to the other. At one point he played a song in the soundboard area and pulled audience members to dance with him. The singer also performed All I Wanna Do Is Be With You, before bringing up various members of the audience to fill up the stage for the finale – his usual Say Hey. This man never disappoints.
After Franti's set Gary Clark Jr. took the stage on the smaller west performance area. The Austin native's talents are stellar guitar playing with a modernized stage show. It's hard not to notice Clark's inner Hendrix when he is playing as his solos flow perfectly and take you back to a different era of music. Speaking of Hendrix, Clark covered Third Stone From The Sun and did it well. His guitar style is grungy and deep, and his bluesy vocals fit his music like a glove. I got a chance to chat with Clark Jr. after the show as I inquired about the set and he said "there is no setlist, we make it up as we go and what we feel the audience wants to feel next."
First-time Montain Jammers The Lumineers were up next on the main stage. Wesley Schultz and Co. delivered a high energy and vocal-heavy set. The lack of hard electric instruments allows you to really hear and feel what they are singing. The Lumineers' set included nearly every song from their debut album including the hit Ho Hey. They came out to the crowd at one point and played in the soundboard area citing "this is not close enough" and crossed the barrier into the crowd for another song. Most impressive was their amazing encore of the Talking Heads' song This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody), which was followed by Stay With Me featuring a sweet transition into Creedence Clearwater Revival's Have You Ever Seen The Rain. The Lumineers blew me away, proving they are more than just some one-hit-wonder pop act.
The festival had tons of product and food vendors to choose from as options included Thai, Italian, Chinese and fresh Mexican as well as food trucks, ice cream and "you name it" fried items. If you had the munchies, this was the place for you. The ski lift was in full operation ride mode and it was not to be missed as it presented the opportunity to fly (some higher than others) right along side the main stage, with a great view of the entire festival.
Saturday evening brought headliners Gov't Mule to the stage. The energy was intense as the nice weather (no rain) helped lead to a lively crowd. The band opened up with the powerful Broke Down on the Brazos, which led into Slackjaw Jezebel. Mule's set included a slew of nice surprises such as a cover of moe.'s Opium with special guest Bill Evans and the CCR cover Effigy mixed in with an awesome bluesy Folsom Prison Blues jam. Warren Haynes and Co.'s second set was a cover-heavy affair that opened up with David Gilmour's There's No Way Out Of Here. Next, Haynes brought out a number of guests including The Shady Horns and Neil Evans from Soulive for a cover of Etta James's I'd Rather Go Blind. Also covered this set was 1983..(A Merman I Should Turn to Be) by the Jimi Hendrix Experience, which led into No Quarter by Led Zeppelin before returning to the end of 1983. It was a stellar night for the Mule. They closed out the evening with the Tom Waits cover Get Behind the Mule. Haynes has a lot of pride in this festival. Backstage Warren told me that he was "excited to get onstage with all these amazing artists" and that "this is his favorite time of year."
The final day of the festival brought some big names and refreshing sunshine. The crowds were out in full force on Sunday following Saturday's attendance hitting a record 15,000. I caught a bit of Dispatch belting out a bit of Bang Bang and Friend of the Devil. Dispatch features a talented mix of rock, rap, jazz and funk. Their vibe reminds me of the good old days of Sublime. Jackie Greene took the smaller stage for his 5:30 performance jamming out on both covers and originals. Right after leaving the stage, he was off to his next gig in Europe to join the Black Crowes for the continuation of their tour. Greene opened up his set with a harmonica rich Gone Wanderin. Later, Furthur keyboardist Jeff Chimenti joined him onstage for I'm So Gone, Farewell, So Long, Goodbye and Animal. Jackie closed his hour-long set with Ball and Chain.
The final act of the festival was legendary Phil Lesh & Friends. This year he put together a great lineup of Warren Haynes, John Scofield, Joe Russo and Jeff Chimenti. The band charged in full force from the start beginning with Cosmic Charlie followed by an incredible version of Cream's Sunshine Of Your Love. Haynes' vocals in this mix of artists is especially rich. The second set began with Shakedown Street and it seemed as if the entire sea of people were dancing and shaking. There were times that one instrument was starting to dominate, but that's to be expected in a show of complete improvisation at its finest. In this writer's opinion, the Mountain Jam performance was definitely one of the best Phil and Friends shows to date. For the final encore they came up with Box Of Rain to close out this awesome four-day adventure of music and fun.
The organization of this event was excellent and the entire weekend went smoothly. Every act was just about on time. The beauty of this festival is nothing much overlaps, so when one band ended on the East Stage the band on the West Stage would start minutes later. This kept the crowds excited especially when the weather changed. Sorry if I missed some bands here, but you never get to see them all!
