H.R. Giger: A Look at 11 Album Covers by the Swiss Surrealist Mastermind
With the sad news of H.R. Giger passing away, we're resurfacing this feature (originally published on October 9, 2011) to pay tribute to this legendary artist.
H.R. Giger's biomechanical bestiaries and nightmare landscapes have become iconic to put it mildly. If designing one of the greatest cinematic monsters ever: The Alien (from 1979's Alien), wasn't enough, the 72-year-old native of Chur, Switzerland has put an indelible artistic bruise on the face of all things heavy (and a few things not so heavy).
Korn's Jonathan Davis' signature mic stand was designed and sculpted by Giger. Giger's designs have become tattooing standards – just ask renowned tattooist Paul Booth. With Alien's "prequel" Prometheus hitting Blu-ray and DVD, Noisecreep decided to run down the surrealist's litany and legacy of album artwork.
Giger's first-ever album cover was done for the Swiss psychedelic band, The Shiver. Their rise to Krautrock cult stature can be tied, in part, to the album's disturbing imagery.
Brain Salad Surgery, Emerson Lake & Palmer (1973)
The album was originally supposed to be titled Whip Some Skull on Ya, – shorthand for fellatio. And what a better combination than lips, penis and skulls? Already an ELP fan at the time, Giger jumped at the opportunity to work with his musical heroes. When the record company saw the artwork, they demanded a penis that featured prominently on the cover be toned down and now resembles a shaft of light. Fun fact: credit for the artwork was snagged by a designer that had long worked with the band. Oddly, the freebooter was killed in a car crash shortly afterwards.
Attahk, Magma (1978)
If ever there were a perfect visual accompaniment to the French progsters' music it would be the work of HR Giger. Magma sang in its own invented language. This painting featuring two bloated demonic babies speaks a language its own as well.
Koo Koo, Debbie Harry (1981)
Debbie Harry's breakaway album from Blondie might have been a strange combination at the time but it's also one of Giger's best-known commercial works. The two met on Giger's stopover in New York after he picked up the Oscar for Alien. What inspired this hauntingly beautiful work? While the four needles piercing Ms. Harry's face represent the four natural elements, the idea for painting itself came from Giger's recent trip to the acupuncturist. This and Emerson Lake & Palmer's covers have been recognized as two of the top 100 album covers by Rolling Stone magazine.
Frankenchrist, The Dead Kennedys (1985)
The shit hit the fan on this one. While the cover depicted a gaggle of Shriners driving miniature convertibles, the poster included inside was a Giger painting entitled "Penis Landscape." This won the Dead Kennedy's a stint in court on charges of distributing materials harmful to minors. While the band was never convicted on the obscenity charges, mainman Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label was left nearly bankrupt due to legal expenses.
To Mega Therion, Celtic Frost (1985)
The artist gave the hugely influential Swiss band his paintings "Victory III" and "Satan I" for the album's front cover and interior for free. Celtic Frost mainman Thomas Gabriel Fischer (ne Warrior) has remained a friend and collaborator ever since, occasionally even moonlighting as Giger's assistant.
Atomic Playboys, Steve Stevens (1989)
The solo offering from Billy Idol/Vince Neil guitarist was the last work Giger created on commission from a band's record company. Not surprisingly, it's one of his least provocative pieces.
Hallucinations, Atrocity (1990)
The German death metal squad utilized "Hommage an S Becket I" to give this brutal semi-classic an eerier visage. Lyrically, the album itself is driven by themes of dementia and drug addiction. Makes sense, right?
How the Gods Kill, Danzig (1992)
This was the unholy union that had to happen. The album's cover is an adaptation of 1976 painting called "Meister und Margeritha" ("Master and Margarita"). The Evil Elvis had begun to step into his own sonic shadow-land, self-producing after two albums under the tutelage of producer supremo Rick Rubin. Giger's artwork (which substitutes a dagger for an erect penis) embodies the album's more foreboding tones. What's this with record companies and male anatomy?
Heartwork, Carcass (1993)
For the Brit gore-grinder's "breakout" album (and one-night stand with major-labeldom with Columbia Records), the artist switched mediums from his usual airbrush work to sculpture. Actually Giger has stopped painting and has been working primarily as a sculptor since 1990.
Eparistera Daimones, Triptykon (2010)
Thirty years after To Mega Therion, the Giger/Tom Warrior partnership picks up again. Giger's 1975 painting "Vlad Tepes" emblazons the cover of the former Celtic Frost mainman's latest foray into the aural abyss. The album also features art from Vincent Castiglia, the noted American artist who paints exclusively in human blood.

On the web you can't assume that most ad-hoc solutions will be optimized. Animation by clearing and complete redrawing is common.

DOM enables use of more sophisticated collision algorithms in SVG, so this might be closer to O(log(n)) for most documents. Browsers already do hit-testing in HTML DOM on every mouse move (for :hover) and generally don't seem to have problem with that. OTOH I wouldn't expect typical page author to bother with anything complex for this, so I think your 1-button example is more like n=1 case of O(n). >> So in theory, if SVG has performance issues, they should be attributable >> to the DOM.

Assuming that browsers aren't able to take advantage of SVGs declarative nature and native implementation to their advantage (e.g. cache rendered parts of DOM that doesn't change, GPU-accelerate animations, avoid cost of reading rendered pixels back from the GPU). In cases where scene graph is needed, a <canvas> solution won't necessarily be better performing — authors might just roll their own SVG-like solution or use a library (e.g. fabric.js) that gives up possibility of very specific optimisations and has to work with scene graph in a high-level language and has no direct control over the GPU. -- regards, Kornel LesińskiReceived on Saturday, 16 July 2011 23:21:33 UTC

Microsoft chairman and CEO Bill Gates blasted the U.S. Department of Justice and its "lawsuit on behalf of Netscape" in a three page essay that will be published this week in the Economist magazine. Gates says that the government's case is flawed, since there are no laws against innovation.
"We are defending the legal right of every company to decide which features go into its own products," Gates writes. "The law says that every company--from the smallest startups to the largest multinational--should always work to improve its products."
One of the strangest allegations to come out of the government lawsuit is the claim that Microsoft offered to split the browser market with Netscape. Gates says this isn't true.
"\[We had a meeting\] to discuss various technologies Microsoft proposed sharing with Netscape, so that Netscape's browser could take advantage of the cool new features we were developing for Windows 95," Gates says. He shared an email from Netscape's Marc Andreessen, who described the meeting as Mafia-like: ""Good to see you again today--we should talk more often," Andreessen's mail reads. That's an odd sentiment considering his recent take on the talks.
Gates also defended the Microsoft employee's email excerpts that the DOJ used to show that the company was going after its competitors in a predatory fashion.
"When you consider that Microsoft provided over a million pages of internal documents and e-mails, it is not surprising that the government has been able to find a handful of statements--many by relatively junior staffers--that can be taken out of context," Gates writes in his essay.
Gates' essay appears in Saturday's Economist

R G Mager & Sons
R Mager & Son's famous donkeys are open for rides 7 days per week (weather permitting) form Easter to October.
We can accommodate ages from 12 months right up to 14 year olds.
The Mager families donkey business was established as far back as 1886 on Weston's beach. The family have been operating on the sands here ever since. Mr. Ron Mager, who is currently the senior member of the family, has held a license for donkey rides on Weston beach, since the 1940s.
The donkeys are mostly home bred ensuring that their gentle temperament and good conformation are passed down through the generations, but some are also occasionally bought or rescued from elsewhere, and retrained to give rides. They usually take to this very well as they enjoy being active and love peoples attention.
The Donkeys have the luxury of only working about 7 months of the year. The rest of the year the Donkeys spend their holidays on various local farms where they're thoroughly spoilt by local children as well as a few grown up kids who can still remember the good old days.
A visit to Weston wouldn't be complete without having your picture taken with our world famous Donkeys.

CONCORD, N.C. - Notes from round 3 qualifying in Funny Car at the NHRA POWERade Drag Racing Series, Inaugural NHRA Carolinas Nationals listing lane, driver name, elapsed time/top speed this round, position in order following run, best prior elapsed time/speed, and position in order prior to run:
Left Lane: John Force Runs 4.157/299.33, Now #13; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Jerry Toliver Runs 4.240/295.66, Now #14; No Prior Run
Weather conditions: air temperature 88 degrees, relative humidity 55 percent, barometer 29.35 inches, adjusted altitude 3,455 feet, track temperature 123 degrees.
12:59 p.m. The clouds are starting to move in little by little. Force is not yet qualified, that would not be the way to start off the Countdown for his team. Top Fuel showed us that the track is getting tricky. Both cars make very good runs. Force goes into the 13th spot as he kept his car planted in the middle of the groove. Toliver will go in to the show for now.
John Force's incremental times:
60ft-0.907 sec., 330ft-2.351, 660ft-3.341/258.22mph.
Left Lane: Bob Gilbertson Runs 4.430/266.74, Now #15; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Matt Hagan Runs 5.073/150.53, Now #16; No Prior Run
Both of the these cars are capable of getting in and staying in the show. Hagan goes about 300ft, the cars makes a move to the right , then he pedals the car, but he decides that he will save the car for another run. Gilbertson was able to make a full pull but the engine starts to go away as he gets to the finish-line. Gilbertson has dropped oil on the track.
Left Lane: Tony Pedregon Runs 4.134/299.40, Now #13; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Tim Wilkerson Runs 4.144/303.91, Now #11; Best prior run: 4.121/300.60, Was #11
The cleanup only took about 10 minutes. Both cars are involved in the Countdown to 1, Wilkerson is already in the show, Pedregon is sitting on the outside. Both lay down great numbers for the conditions. Tony Pedregon gets into the show, Wilkerson makes a very nice run.
Pedregon's incremental times: 60ft-0.907 sec., 330ft-2.336, 660ft-3.324/260.51mph.
Left Lane: Tommy Johnson Jr. Runs 4.695/181.08, Now #17; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Ron Capps Runs 4.157/298.54, Now #10; Best prior run: 4.117/299.73, Was #10
Capps makes a good looking run, not the case for Johnson. TJ goes about 500ft then smokes the tires. Johnson will have to wait for the final session to bump into the big show.
Left Lane: Jeff Arend Runs 4.131/304.19, Now #13; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Gary Densham Runs 4.240/292.71, Now #9; Best prior run: 4.108/296.18, Was #9
Densham is safely in the show. Arend really wants to put the DHL Toyota into the show. Arend gets into the show. Arend will move to the 13th spot and that will now put Jerry Toliver on the bump.
Jeff Arend's incremental times: 60ft-0.930 sec., 330ft-2.355,
Left Lane: Tony Bartone Runs 4.457/204.23, Now #18; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Melanie Troxel Runs 4.226/294.37, Now #7; Best prior run: 4.100/304.53, Was #7
Troxel is in, Bartone is not. Bartone had a nice run untill he starts to haze the tires at 600ft, then he lifts. Troxel makes a nice solid run for her to establish more information for her crew chief.
Left Lane: Jack Beckman Runs 4.118/300.86, Now #11; No Prior Run
Right Lane: Jim Head Runs 4.164/298.07, Now #6; Best prior run: 4.089/303.57, Was #6
Beckman is not yet into the field and he is driving one of the hottest cars coming into this event. WOW! Beckman plants the car in the center of the groove, is able to keep the candles lit all the way down zMax Dragway. Beckman will get into the show and he is the first driver to bump into the top 12. John Force will now be on the bump with one car to go that has not yet made a pass today.
Jack Beckman's incremental times: 60ft-0.902 sec., 330ft-2.323,

Right Lane: Robert Hight Runs 4.140/302.01, Now #2; Best prior run: 4.072/300.33, Was #2
A pair of Force cars. Hight will make a full pull, Neff was good until 500ft when the tires start to haze. Hight's number is very good for the heat.
Robert Hight's incremental
times: 60ft-0.917 sec., 330ft-2.347, 660ft-3.333/260.66mph.
Left Lane: Cruz Pedregon Runs 4.139/298.80, Now #5; Best prior run: 4.087/303.43, Was #5

Does anyone NOT marinate flank steak?
I love the flavor of beef and usually don't marinate most cuts including favorites which often seem to be marinated such as skirt, flat iron, etc. Does anyone have a tried and true method for a flank steak that is not marinated? It seems that some of the recipes only recommend a short marinate time so I figured it wasn't playing a big role in the tenderizer department. Will a simple prep salt and pepper screeching hot, sliced thin across the grain yield a good result?

The song was co-written by Carrie, and basically proves that her marriage to Mike Fisher is stronger than ever right now. With lyrics like, "Underneath the harvest moon / Standing on your shoes in my bare feet / Dancing to the rhythm of your heartbeat / Yeah, we're dancing to the rhythm of your heartbeat," you can bet this is going to be a hit at weddings next year.
The country singer's marriage isn't a bad one to idolize. The happy couple just welcomed their first child, a baby boy, a few months ago. They've also never had to deal with any media drama, either. You never hear anything negative about their relationship and they've been married for five years.
Releasing a new song isn't the only thing Carrie's been up to lately, either. Her album is set to be released in just a few days, and she's set to host the CMA Awards with Brad Paisley on November 4.
Listen to Carrie's new song "Heartbeat," below.

It took local community volunteer Michael Orelove 2 inches of correspondence to achieve his goal, but a piece of Alaska granite is now firmly embedded in Chicago's Tribune Tower.
On a visit to the Windy City in 1999, Orelove, a retired state worker, noticed that a brochure for the tower said it contained geologic or historic specimens from around the world and "all 50 states except Alaska."
He took that as a challenge.
Why did chunks of Egypt's Great Pyramids, Greece's Parthenon and Texas' Alamo rate, if the Last Frontier didn't? So he began a campaign of insistent correspondence.
"We got a stone from the top of Mount McKinley to downtown Chicago," Orelove said.
The chunk of granite originally was collected by an expedition in the 1950s as a research specimen, and turned over to Orelove after considerable negotiation by Denali National Park and Preserve, home of the nation's tallest mountain.
The rock is about the length of a dollar bill and the height of a hot dog bun, and has been mounted vertically in a spot where an original building block of the tower had disintegrated.
It is embedded about 12 feet up, which might be described as a "come-down-ance" from its original altitude of 20,320 feet but still an honored spot in the tower's display, which appears both inside and outside the structure.
Orelove had to create his own ceremony for the Aug. 18 embedding.
The program began at noon with "gathering and milling around" that included his niece Eden, 18, and his nephew Abel, 21, as well as their father, Joel, and Orelove's sister, Merle Orelove of California a former Juneau resident.
Following the milling and the ringing of a bell, Michael Orelove read a proclamation he penned himself for Gov. Tony Knowles' signature.
"It was a really crazy experience," said Eden Orelove, who read the proclamation addressed "to the citizens of Chicago and the world." Michael Orelove concluded the ceremony with a rough blast on a bugle.
"I thought it was neat to have all of us gathered there. People walked up to us off the street wondering what we were doing, and I think we did a good job of delivering our message 'to the world,' " Eden Orelove said.
Michael Orelove is relishing the fact that he is forcing the Tribune Tower to reprint the brochure that guides people to its more than 120 famous stones. He's pleased he pulled off in the same summer both the Alaska rock project and a dockside community sundial, painted on concrete near the lower Mount Roberts Tramway terminal.
"I am going to start a few (more projects)," he said. "I have a couple in the wings but I don't want to say what they are. Let people wonder."

The above is an excerpt from the Saucony blog post about the Freedom ISO. When early photos of the shoe appeared on the Internet last year, the first all-EVERUN (topsole and midsole) shoe from the company generated considerable excitement. Now that the launch in Malaysia is imminent, and that I've put in more than 60K in them, it's time to put out this review.
But first, the specs…
- Full length EVERUN midsole and topsole.
- Engineered mesh with ISOFIT.
- Totally rad translucent Crystal Rubber outsole.
- Significant toe-spring.
- Support frame for the heel.
- Blue-black-citron colorway for men, blue-citron for women.
- Stack height of 19mm/15mm (heel/forefoot) for a 4mm offset.
- 9.8oz for my US10.
The Freedom ISO (FISO) comes with a spare set of flat laces. I switched the blue ones out for the yellow purely for cosmetic reasons 🙂 . The shoes look amazing out of the box, the design is one of simplicity. No superfluous overlays and strips. Even the traditional heel counter is absent, replaced by a single thin strip of plastic called Support Frame (a little more on that below). A one-piece engineered mesh upper is a little stretchy and its integrated lace loops complement the ISOFIT system. This iteration of ISOFIT has seen some refinement since the first Zealot, and I've not encountered any bunch-ups in all runs. Reflective elements are generous – on the tongue, logo and heel.
The wide tongue has some ribbing which cushion against pressure of the laces. So you can lace up for an even greater locked down feel. Since the tongue is integrated with the ISOFIT system, there's no chance of it ever slipping. In your hands, the shoes certainly don't have the flyweight feel of a racing flat. Although weighing in at 9.8oz (a tad heavier than the Kinvara 8, TPU being heavier than traditional EVA), they're still what majority will call lightweight. Employing a minimal approach on the upper has allowed Saucony to pare away the unnecessary "fat" and thus offset the TPU "weight gain".
Flip the FISO over and you'll see the very colorful take on the full-contact outsole. It's not carbon nor blown rubber but a compound called Crystal Rubber. I wasn't able to get more information on Crystal Rubber but it has a translucent look allowing the designers to go a little wild. It's said to be just as durable, if not more, than the traditional rubber. The shallow lugs are still in TRI-FLEX configuration and the strip of hollowed out section reveals the EVERUN material. As with the Kinvara 8 (K8), the Freedom is true to size for me. Nevertheless, it's always good to try several sizes out at the stores. Step-in feel is very comfortable, and you do feel the 3mm layer of EVERUN topsole just under the sockliner. The upper and ISOFIT combines well and it feels like having thin socks with a slab of cushioning on. The stitching around the edges of the wide tongue were executed very well – there won't be any rubbing around the edges for sure. You don't get nor feel much structure anywhere around the upper. Even the so-called Support Frame is not stiff, ultimately minimalist – more of a clip than a full-on heel counter. At this point, you'll probably be wondering how the Freedom ISO rides and how it compares to the K8 [reviewed here]. The curiosity is understandable, since both are within an ounce of each other, are light, versatile and have 4mm offsets. Well, the FISO has more ground contact feel, what with its lower stack heights. Its cushioning is a lot subtler than the softer and bouncier K8. It's there all right, but it's not in-your-face. The FISO's ride is firmer and feels more planted. Those expecting a mushy run will have to look elsewhere. You'd want to go fast in the Freedom. Transition is silky smooth, offering an assured hold on the road, wet or dry. I've took them out in the rain, covered some sections which are pebbly and sandy and have come away pretty impressed with the Crystal Rubber material. It has an almost tacky feel like that of PWRTRAC, Saucony's other outsole material. I've not had any issues with the breathability in this hot and muggy climate as ours and as with the K8, my preference has been to go with thin socks. However, if your socks collection consists of the thicker variety, I'd suggest upsizing to allow for some room in the toebox area.
The FISO joins the K8 as my go-to shoes of late and both will be in my packing list for the Gold Coast Airport Marathon this July.
The Saucony Freedom ISO will be launched very soon, and will be available in Stadium and Running Lab stores as well as selected RSH outlets nationwide. They will retail at RM529. Do follow the Saucony Malaysia Facebook page (link below) for information about the Freedom's launch and availability.
Disclosure: I am a Saucony Malaysia Ambassador but the opinions expressed above is based from my own personal experience and miles logged in the shoes. This review is in no way whatsoever influenced by Saucony Malaysia.

Magpies are birds of the Corvidae (crow) family, including the black and white Eurasian magpie, which is one of the few animal species known to be able to recognize itself in a mirror test.[1] In addition to other members of the genus Pica, corvids considered as magpies are in the genera Cissa, Cyanopica and Urocissa.

Umno Youth head, Khairy Jamaluddin, told to step down!
Khairy Jamaluddin, or commonly known as KJ, was told by an Umno Youth executive council (exco) member from Putrajaya Umno youth to step down as an Umno Youth head and to make way for others, if he cannot effectively lead the movement.
At a four-hour Umno Youth meeting held at the 38th floor of the PWTC today, disgruntled exco members, among others, voiced out their dissatisfaction over KJ's nine month lacklustre leadership.
Mohd Hushamuddin Yahaya, Putrajaya Umno Youth vice-head said the movement feels that nothing is moving under KJ's leadership.
Other exco members also voiced out the inability for the exco members to have excess or to see even Prime Minister Dato' Sri Najib Tun Razak for a meaningful dialogue due to KJ's vanity and pride.
Some, at the meeting, also feel that KJ as the Umno Youth leader did not seem to support Najib policies such as the One Malaysia concept.
Others blamed KJ's choice of state Umno youth heads as being those who are non performer and were chosen without consulting other youth members. "Some of those elected have no credibility to begin with and yet KJ chose them," sources said.
Well KJ buck-up or get out of the kitchen!

KJ always a destroyer & a BABI/ Sinkpork worshipper..he 'beriman' with them all forever

And replace him with whom?
Khir Toyo?
And why should the Exco want to meet the PM? Ask for project is it? The Exco has a leader who was elected and thats the bottom line.
KJ is perhaps the only reason young people may even consider to vote the Government.
Thats why at the time when almost everybody is perplexed with certain developments of the Government, KJFC on the other hand attracts members and at latest count there are over 7,300 members.
Face the facts and stop parroting what your boss Parpukari asks you do.

better than being stuck with Jom Pi Jerlun for vision or a scandal tainted ex MB who cannot even retain his state. To me those who oppose KJ fall into either one of 3 categories
a) Jealous
b) Stupid
c) All of the above.
I have yet to meet a single above average intellect anti Khairy. All are stupid or jealous beyond measure.
- January 31, 2010 10:28 AM
so yes...people deserve the leaders they choose/elect.
KJ represents the young (Malaysians)? this is pathetic.
Have people forgotten that this --- yes, articulate, smart -- boy was the face of BN abuse, corruption and the worst brand of nepotism -- under Pak Lah's regime?
you mean young malaysians are ok with corrupt leaders as long as these leaders pandai cakap orang putih, urbane, and smart? yep, leave it to KJ, and he'll know how to do things.....
wake up, man!

That is your opinion, but even without a position in cabinet more than 7,400 have joined up to become his friend in KJFC. As to those who say KJ is the face of corruption, pls get your facts right. The economy under Pak Lah was much more resilient that it had ever been under TDM, so where is this huge corruption one is talking about. I personally confronted Tun on this matter, I even gave facts to back up my case, so cut the guy some slack or forever be condemned as suffering from dengki hasaditus
- January 31, 2010 2:34 PM
Hmmm... what about penyakit mata buta-nus and hati buta-nus.... but still.... KJ is not the only one tat raise curiosities... Mokhzani Mahathir is listed as top 20 richest man in Malaysia.... wonder if he can achieve that without being PM son for 23 years...

Two major Sprint Nextel shareholders have voiced support for Dish Network's $25.5 billion bid to acquire the wireless carrier.
John Paulson, founder of New York-based hedge fund Paulson & Co., said Dish is "offering more value to Sprint shareholders" than SoftBank, which has agreed to pay $20 billion for a 70 percent stake in Sprint.
"(Dish) also is contributing valuable spectrum, 14 million subscribers, cost synergies and revenue synergies," Paulson said in a statement. "Dish needs to firm up the financing but it's a compelling offer and (Dish chairman Charlie Ergen) seems fully committed. It will be interesting to see how the Sprint board and SoftBank respond."
Paulson & Co. holds a 4.2 percent stake in Sprint.
Douglas County-based Dish serves 14 million satellite-TV customers and holds licenses to 45 MHz of unencumbered spectrum, a finite resource over which cellphone data travel. The company expects the merger to save the new entity $11 billion in costs.
Overland Park, Kan.-based Sprint serves 47.5 million retail wireless subscribers.
"We like the Dish offer and think it is superior to SoftBank," Leon Cooperman, founder of hedge fund Omega Advisors, said in an e-mail to Bloomberg News.
Omega owns 1.9 percent of Sprint shares and 1.7 percent of Dish shares.
Dish's offer consists of $17.3 billion in cash and $8.2 billion in stock. Sprint shareholders would hold a 32 percent stake in the new company.
With pay-TV subscriber growth slowing and as consumers watch more content outside of the home, Ergen says mobile broadband can help Dish increase sales, estimating that the merger could lead to $24 billion in new revenue.
Dave Novosel, an analyst with Gimme Credit, said the "$24 billion of revenue synergies seems aggressive."
In 2012, Dish posted sales of $14.3 billion and Sprint generated $35.3 billion.

Questionable bar etiquette?
I like taking part in happy hour specials in restaurants all the time. The only problem is, a lot of restaurants seem to limit their happy hour items to the bar area, which is fine, but I'm not a big alcohol drinker. More than that, I don't like the taste of it. Can I safely assume bartenders are unused to, and maybe even dislike, people like me sitting at their bar, not ordering drinks, and thus, not increasing their tip jar?
When I go out with others who drink, this isn't an issue, but sometimes, I don't. I am more than happy to tip generously for nonalcoholic drinks (soda, coffee, tea, milkshakes, etc....) and food, but I'm just wondering if this is generally bad etiquette at the bar.

Back in the day when my dad allowed me take the boat to the lake, my cousin and I went a couple days a week after school. We had a Bad to the bone jet boat. We also had the best system for launching. My cousin would back my truck down the ramp. Bow hook unstraped. I would hit the water and we were gone. Just like pros 30 seconds of ramp time. Same coming out. I would drive on as he was backing up. Then one day we switched. I drove and backed us down. Off into the water the boat went. Then my cousin hit the throttle to impress girls. Big engine, Big mistake. The power shot the boat out of reverse and up the ramp about 20' into the door of a Jeep Cherokee, and then slid back down the into the water. The hard part was telling the insurance company that a boat in the water took out the door of a Jeep.

The Characters
(Masterpieces of American Fiction)
While David is the seeming protagonist and the first-person narrator in Giovanni's Room, Giovanni shares the role of protagonist, is a sort of secondary protagonist. David cannot reconcile his own sexuality with his moral code. He early associates sex with death, as is seen in his dreams of his dead mother: ". . . she figured in my nightmares, blind with worms, her hair as dry as metal and brittle as a twig, straining to press me against her body; that body so putrescent, so sickening soft, that it opened, as I clawed and cried, into a breach so enormous as to swallow me alive." David's sexual experiences with women are overshadowed by this memory of his childhood nightmares. Having been reared by a virile father, David cannot accept the homosexuality that is an ingrained part of his nature.
Giovanni, on the other hand, has been married and has fathered a child. When the child died, Giovanni left Italy and came to Paris. Giovanni's love for David is a pure and natural affection, but David cannot accept it as such, because to do so would be to accept his own homosexuality, which he has long been fighting.
Juxtaposed to David and Giovanni are Jacques and Guillaume. They are old homosexuals, unattractive men who pay young boys for their sexual favors. Knowing them makes David fear what he will become if he yields to his own homosexual nature.
Joey, the adolescent with whom David first had a sexual experience, is...

SummaryPixelspeech's rant on mature-games: part II
The Good- Improved graphics with hand-made drawings
- Animations during combat
The Bad- characters and events only serve to annoy you
- Story has little in the way of twists and is really boring
- Villains won't stay dead
- Same problems as Fallen Sage, but worsened
The Bottom LineYou might be wondering why I am playing this title, after all, I did grind the previous title in this fan-series into the ground in my re-review of it. Well, I wasn't quite done with my rant, there were some more items I wanted to talk about. However, I figured that too much information in just one review would be a little too much for the readers and the message would get lost because of it. Consider this more like a part 2 instead of a separate entry.
To summarize my argument from the last review, "Undyingnephalim" made an overambitious game that failed to grasp the meaning of mature, resulting in a huge mess of a story that left me with a bad taste in my mouth. I have always lived by the notion that you should never let the child inside you die, the reason for why I am telling you this is because after submitting my review on Fallen Sage I was verbally harassed by the creator over Youtube because I wrote a counter-argument to a statement he made on a video. That was when I finally realized what is wrong with the man, his inner child is not just dead, it has been thrown into an oven and slowly burned to death. I actually feel somewhat sorry for the guy, as he seems to be convinced that a Zelda game that isn't utterly and completely devoid of cheerful themes is somehow an insult to the franchise and must be purged, he even claimed the CDI games were better than Skyward Sword.
Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are clearly the games that he keeps coming back to whenever somebody tries to argue with him, but I think his nostalgia completely blinds him and he now lives in an alternate universe where those two Nintendo 64 games were the scariest games to ever come out the video games industry. I enjoyed both these titles and of course I remember stuff like the Moon crashing into Termina, Ikana Canyon and the first time I saw a ReDead. However, I also remember stuff like racing with beavers, running around with bunny ears on my head and dancing Gorons. Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask had plenty of cheerful and comical moments as well, but Undyingnephalim seems to not see them, just like how he can't see stuff like satanic symbols in Wind Waker and he has stated Skyloft won't appear in Hyrule: Total War despite the fact that every man in that nation HAS to become a soldier.
So what is new in this game? Well the graphics have improved significantly and there is some really amazing stuff now. We see pictures of the actors when they talk and instead of battler graphics we get animations that show whenever you use an attack. Presentation and graphics-wise this game is a real improvement over the previous one. Most images are also hand-drawn this time around, so a character like Annara doesn't have to make use of a misplaced image that came with the engine. Undyingnephalim has always been an amazing drawer and I would recommend his manga, despite the fact it suffers from the same fate as his games, for the style alone.
I enjoyed the new graphics, they felt like a novelty to me, but even a novelty like this can be easily overshadowed by the big problem that this entry in the franchise has made even more apparent, namely the melodrama. Melodrama is when characters and events are created based on insanely exaggerated emotions. It's another problem which I believe relates back to the creator's idea of mature, but to everybody else it just feels like we are experiencing a story written by some 11-year old brat. Every single female in the party is sexually attracted to Link in this universe and every man in the story is attracted to Zelda for example, to us, the scenarios this fact create are so unrealistic to us that it becomes a parody instead of a serious story. The story itself starts off with Saria (one of the calmest and most kind of all people in the lore) freaking out and killing an entire army because somebody said she can't love Link due to her been a kid... These aren't even the first ten minutes of the game, this is literally the start of it, you boot the game and it's the first thing you see.
Then Liyer shows up and decides to try and kill the enraged Saria and this is the point where I turned off the game, fifteen minutes in and I turned it off. Why? Well because it was already clear to me that we were once again wandering the very narrow path of Undyingnephalim's sadistic fantasy. To me, Liyer was the character that caused all this stuff to happen in the first place, she repeatedly bullied Saria and ordered other people to leave her for death on multiple occassions, even going as far to mock her seconds after she died. To assume that everybody in the group, even Darunia, was going to side with Liyer is not in-universe logic, but it is the creator's logic, because Liyer was the main love interest for Link, so naturally she deserves to be the hero of this scene.
I eventually continued, but the story is pure blandness all the way through. One of the big problems is that Neph has three villains; Akazoo, Dark Link and Sulkaris, but can't for the love of god stop banging on about them. These three villains are constantly been ressurected, you actually already fought Sulkaris like five times in Fallen Sage, but Time's Menagerie reveals that she will continue to be revived as long as even a single Gohma is still alive (an arachnid race that shits out dozens of children every second). Dark Link also returns and I can't even tell you how many times you fight him, roughly two times every dungeon? The Zelda series is no stranger to returning villains, but most writers don't ressurect their characters twelve times a game. Saria herself also died like five times already and this time around we once again go on a quest to ressurect her, because apparently items that defy the laws of life and death come with the happy meals in this lore.
As I am finishing this review off, I do feel kind of sad. RMXP is an incredible engine, one that is both advanced and accessible at the same time. Genuinely great games have come out of this, like Yume Nikki for example. I also feel bad about myself, for as much as I am hating on this fan-series, genuine good things have come out of this as well. Majora and the Ooccaa are kind of cool, The Zora have a very interesting personality and just looking at the world map used for Hyrule: Total War makes a fan like myself feel like a tactical genius as I evaluate possible alliances and threats. Perhaps these two RPG's and the manga were made when the designer was still young and Hyrule: Total War will be the groundbreaking reimaging of the Zelda franchise we have been promised. You shouldn't play this title, you shouldn't play Fallen and you probably should also avoid the manga, but Hyrule: Total War still holds promise, so check that out when you have the time instead.

The Feinstein/Bloomberg types have their "retreats" already lined up,
and they will be given enough advanced warning in order to get there before the rest of us realize the "shift" is happening.
"..The Feinstein/Bloomberg types have their retreats already lined up..."
I suspect those "retreats" are well-stocked, well-fortified and well-hidden because there is a real bad feeling out there that when the SHTF, there will be no place for those types to hide on the face of the entire planet, let alone in the USA. They'll be looked for world-wide and once captured, they'll probably just be turned over as feed to the hungry "unwashed masses": The Walking Dead.

LOGAN, Utah -
Spring Practice Interviews & Highlights
Photo Gallery
Utah State football held its initial spring practice Tuesday morning as first-year head coach Matt Wells had 95 players suit up for the one hour and 45 minute workout in the Stan Laub Indoor Football Complex.
Of the 95 players that were donning helmets, practice jerseys and shorts Tuesday, 25 will be seniors, 25 will be juniors, 20 will sophomores and 25 are freshmen.
"It was a good first day. There is plenty of juice and energy around here, and those are the things that our staff and players have and feed off of," said Wells. "We were flying around and I really liked the way a lot of the defensive backs broke-up balls.
"We're going to really, really sweat the small details this spring and we're going to coach the heck out of those. Not just what you're doing, but how you're doing it and the demeanor that you do it in. We are going to try and take things to another level and coach a lot more of the finer details of techniques and different things kids can do."
Some highlights from Tuesday's practice included interceptions by senior cornerback Devonta Glover-Wright and redshirt freshman linebacker Nick Vigil.
"Nick and Zach Vigil bring an intensity and toughness with everything they do," Wells said. "Both are in-state kids with a high care-factor and they will both be really good players for us."
In all, Utah State returns 18 starters (O-8, D-7, S-3) and 49 letterwinners (O-23, D-22, S-4) from last year's 11-2 Western Athletic Conference and Famous Idaho Potato Bowl Championship team that ended the year ranked 16th in the final Associated Press Poll and 22nd in the final Bowl Championship Series Standings.
Among those returning for Utah State include 10 players who earned various all-WAC accolades a year ago as senior linebacker Jake Doughty, sophomore linebacker Kyler Fackrell, junior quarterback Chuckie Keeton, senior offensive center Tyler Larsen and senior offensive tackle Eric Schultz were all named to the first-team, while senior cornerback Nevin Lawson, senior offensive guard Jamie Markosian, sophomore defensive tackle Jordan Nielsen and junior linebacker Zach Vigil were all named to the second-team, and senior defensive tackle Connor Williams was named to the honorable mention team.
Utah State will continue with spring practice on Wednesday morning, before practicing in the afternoon on Thursday, as players will wear pads for the first time. All practices are open to the public, with morning practices scheduled from 6:15 to 8:15 a.m. at the Stan Laub Indoor Football Complex. Afternoon practices are scheduled from 3:15 to 5:15 p.m. at Merlin Olsen Field at Romney Stadium. All practice days, times and locations are subject to change.
Over the next four weeks, the Aggies will participate in 15 spring practice sessions, culminating in the annual Blue vs. White Spring Game, presented by Orbit Irrigation Products, on Saturday, April 20 on Merlin Olsen Field at Romney Stadium at 2 p.m.

PepsiCo is joining the wave of drink makers ditching high fructose corn syrup and making drinks featuring real sugar by giving away at least 10 million free cans of Sierra Mist Natural at Wal-Mart stores this weekend.
Pepsi is spending at least $3 million on the promotion according to the Associated Press.
The soda maker also removed high fructose corn syrup from Gatorade this year.

The Friars' Club had a roast for former Major League pitcher and author of Ball Four, Jim Bouton, that would have made even Dana Jacobsen blush:
Susie Essman, who turned to Bouton's wife, Paula, and said, "Honey, he didn't give up his career for you! He gave up his career because his arm didn't work any more!" Essman also cracked, "I could have had sex with Jim but I didn't. I held my ground. I got up off my knees from that bathroom stall with my dignity." Dave Konig, from Sirius Radio, said, "I always wanted to be an athlete as a kid but couldn't. But after reading your book and learning how athletes gambled and drank and chased women, I knew I could be like them."
Apparently, Bouton is not important enough to receive the Friars' 'A' crew, but Essman and Konig really delivered some zingers, didn't they? No, they didn't. The 1963 All-Star would have been better served by Rip Taylor and the exhumed corpses of Slappy White, Henny Youngman, and, of course, Mickey Mantle. -KD

Franklin Moves Forward on Development Strategy to Prepare for Production on the Company's Gem and Freighters Friend Mines in Clear Creek County, Colorado
Sep 13, 2012, 11:25 ET from Franklin Mining, Inc.
LAS VEGAS, Sept. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- FRANKLIN MINING, INC. (Pink Sheets: FMNJ.pk - News) is pleased to announce that the Company has decided to mobilize on the opportunity to develop the Company's mining property in Clear Creek County, Colorado.
In past evaluations the property has revealed the probability of yielding strong mineral production. Particularly in February 19, 1998 a survey was conducted by Steven R. Schurman, a Certified Professional Geologist and president of MinSearch, Inc. The official review of existing technical data relative to ore bodies found at the Franklin Mine in February and in October, 1998, revealed two areas of strong gold mineralization approximately halfway between the Franklin and Freighters Friend shafts on the 900 and 976 levels of the mine. The ore grade gold mineralization was defined by 76 samples taken at five-foot intervals along the vein. The sampling indicates the presence of 6,200 tons of rock containing an average of 0.91 oz/ton gold, 9.5 oz/ton silver and substantial quantities of lead and zinc.
These results were announced on November 11, 1998 by Franklin Mining, previously traded as WCM CAPITAL, INC. under the ticker symbol WCMC and can be found at: http://sec.edgar-online.com/wcm-capital-inc/10qsb-quarterly-report-of-financial-condition/1998/11/25/section20.aspx
With this property having been previously prepared for production with a substantial investment in the construction of the Franklin Mill along with the rehabilitation of the Franklin and Freighters Friend shafts and underground workings, the Company anticipates that this will be the one of its most profitable ventures.
Franklin's Gem and Freighters Friend Mines are situated on the JL Emerson fault Zone, one of the largest mineralized faults in the Idaho Springs mining district.
"We are extremely pleased to announce this new project. There is a great deal of potential on this property, and we are very optimistic about the outstanding opportunity this presents with Ore at its current prices," stated William Petty, Chief Executive Officer.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) Police hope surveillance images will help them catch the man who was able to get inside a bakery that was closed for the day by punching a hole in the wall of the vacant business next door.
Back on the morning of April 18, the manager of Courtney's Bakery on East State Boulevard showed up for work and after unlocking the front door to go inside she noticed the cash register was missing according to a report issued by the Fort Wayne Police Department. The manager immediately went back outside and called police. A short time later officers and the owner arrived at the bakery. The owner told the officers that the bakery had closed at 6 pm the previous day and this was the second time it had been burglarized.
When the officers looked around the bakery they found the cash register had been moved to an office in the back of the store and that the previous days sales were missing from it. They also discovered that the east wall of the bakery had been broken through from the adjacent business.
It appeared that the burglar had first tried to break in by prying open the back door and when that didn't work because it had been reinforced from the previous burglary, he went through the unlocked front door of what was believed to have been a tanning salon that was no longer in business.
Surveillance video from inside the bakery shows the burglar punching through the wall in order to get inside. He's then seen taking the cash register back to the office.
Based on images from the surveillance video, police believe the thief to to a white male, about 50 years old, stocky with dark hair and glasses. He was wearing gloves and a baseball hat.
Police want anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 436-STOP.

Your articles on configuring the pppd are outstanding [see Tony Mobily's "Configuring pppd in Linux" parts I and II in the February and March 2002 issues of LJ]. This is the way a HOWTO should be done—excellent hands-on information that works, with complete directions for us beginners. Well done! You can ask Tony back any time.
—Jack Dennon
I read with interest Larry Rosen's "Unbiased License FUD" in your March 2002 issue. I am appreciative that Larry is dispelling the confusion about how the GNU GPL works. He is quite correct that to have obligations under the terms of the GNU GPL, one must actually create and/or distribute a derivate work of some copyrighted software licensed under the GNU GPL.
However, while dispelling FUD in that area, Larry (perhaps unintentionally) helped to spread similar FUD himself. In his article, Larry propagated the idea that the "GPL is an infection". Infections are (according to "dict" on my Debian GNU/Linux system) things "which taint or corrupt morally" or "cause...disease".
This sort of fear mongering about the GNU GPL became all too common during summer 2001, when various high-ranking executives of Microsoft called the GNU GPL an un-American cancerous virus that ate up software like a Pac-Man. I doubt that Larry or your magazine want to affiliate themselves with that concerted campaign of FUD.
As a strong advocate of software freedom, I often tell people: "The GNU GPL is not a virus; by contrast, it vaccinates you from harm." The GNU GPL is designed to share freedom with all who benefit from the software. No one is required to "join the club", but when you do choose to create derivative works of GNU GPLed software, you have obligations to the community. The GNU GPL is designed to create a software commons, with provisions that help avoid the tragedy of the commons.
I urge your editorial staff and Larry himself to avoid using biased terms like "infection" when trying to give "Unbiased License" information. The unbiased way to describe the GNU GPL's nature in this regard is simple: "The GNU GPL requires that those who distribute derivate works license the source of the derivate work in a GPL-compatible way."
—Bradley M. KuhnVice President, Free Software Foundation
Larry replies: Bradley, thanks for your letter. I usually try to avoid the term "infection" when speaking of the GPL. However, I used that word in that particular article because, as I quoted directly in my second paragraph, the reader who responded to me used that word. I certainly did not intend to propagate the notion that the GPL has virus-like attributes, in the sense of things "which taint or corrupt morally" or "cause...disease". I perhaps should have used the word "inheritance" instead, as I have done in my other writings about the GPL, because that word has more positive implications. Indeed, I have recently started to use the term "reciprocity" to describe the effect of the GPL and similar open-source licenses (including the MPL and CPL). Those licenses require licensees to reciprocate by licensing their derivative works under the same license as the work they were given. In contract law terms, I contend, the reciprocity obligation is the "consideration" you pay for the grant to you of the free license to the original code.
I have a few comments regarding David Bandel's Focus on Software column in the March 2002 issue of Linux Journal. First, great job, David. Keep up the good work! For me, your article is second only to Freshmeat when it comes to discovering new software. Second, I was thrilled to see coverage of Vipul's Razor (razor.sourceforge.net). I've found it to be incredibly effective in weeding out my daily dose of spam.
Although I am a long time Procmail user, I've often found its recipes difficult (at best) and cryptic (at worst). I can't begin to count the hours I've spent writing and debugging what should be a fairly simple filter. I think many of even the more hard-core Procmailers would be pressed to disagree with me on this point.
So, it was with no small amount of giddiness that I discovered Mail::SpamAssassin. This module (accessible via CPAN.org) is a plugin to the Mail::Audit module. The true advantage is that, because it's Perl, you can easily filter your e-mail through a Perl script. I have a tutorial covering this at PerlMonks (www.perlmonks.org) under the Tutorials section entitled (appropriately enough) "A Beginner's Guide to Using Mail::Audit and Mail::SpamAssassin". Using these modules gives you the power of Perl (renowned for its ability to parse text) to filter your e-mail. I've been using this for several months now, and I've found that approximately 99% of my daily spam is filtered appropriately. And, I'm proud to report that none of my e-mail has been lost. Again, you're doing a great job. Keep it up!

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA — A teenage boy was killed and two others wounded outside a high school late Friday when shots were fired as hundreds of students left a dance.
No arrests had been made by early Saturday, and investigators had not determined a motive.
The injured students, whose ages and identities were not released, suffered gunshot wounds to the head and body, said Savannah police spokesman Bucky Burnsed. One was in critical condition; the other was treated at a hospital and released.

(Author's Notes: Okay. People don't understand what I mean in my poems. So I thought I might try a separate explanation? I know people either really want an explanation or really don't want an explanation, so I thought I'd get your opinion and either keep on with the explanations or continue to not do it. I'm not really fond of doing it, but with it in a separate chapter I don't mind so much. I don't know. Here we go...)
(Ramble on Rilo)
Go on Rilo
(Rilo, the poet from "Death By Tap Shoes & Cigarettes", who "wrote" this in that story, is writing to herself about herself and Raphael.)
Push your glasses up and knock-sock-em till he's dead
(She has glasses and Raphael kissed her. Now she wants to stun the hell out of him because she has a thing for him. It's a pep talk.)
You curly haired queen of sugar coated dreams
(She has curly hair and Raphael tells her that she is completely made out of sugar. She's also naive and so she "sugar coats" things for herself, like her and Raphael's relationship-ish-thing.)
Convince him that the pinstripes are really freedom
(Raphael has a thing for wearing pinstriped pants. He wears them night & day. She's talking about convincing him that the pinstripes are really part of his self-expression instead of a daily routine that he's trapped in.)
Not a cheap metaphor between uniforms to
(Compares his self-imposed "uniform" of pinstripes to cliche jail uniform stripes)
Keep him occupied between now and his inevitable occupation that
(He's busying himself with pinstriped pants, black fedoras and guitar jazz, even though he'll probably end up having to do something else with his life, because jazz isn't a hit with the times anymore.)
Is really something else since everyone he meets goes: "Man
(Everyone he meets that finds out he's such a talented guitarist tells him he'll be famous.)
You are really something else" Little do they know their own high-noon foreshadows
(But Raphael won't be famous, and the thoughts about their own future fame won't happen either.)
Cast from the regret of their preciously precocious high school whores
(The girls who have sex with them because they're convinced that all guitarists are destined for fame and they just want a connection with that elusive notoriety.)
Who know their own name as well as they don't know yours
(They don't even really know the names of the guys they sleep with and/or they forget the names because these guys never do hit fame and they don't matter anymore.)
And looking at them and their three am lovers you're
(Rilo's thinking about how she doesn't sleep around with these destined for fame boys, most notably Raphael.)
Convinced that you're stark raving sane
(And she knows that not sleeping with him is the best thing she can do, no matter how much she wants to.)
Come on Rilo
(Still talking to herself, she just had a flicker in her thought process.)
Please don't come around this way
(She's asking herself not to get into a relationship with Raphael.)
I was never a spotlight lover
(She's so engrossed in her writing that she slips up and makes a confession in first person: that she was never good at relationships, especially if other people are paying attention. So if Raphael were to become famous she isn't sure about how she'd deal with that.)
And he was never the kind who could bring himself to stay
(Raphael isn't very good with relationships period and he's not too stable with their friendship to begin with. She thinks he'd cheat on her without even thinking about it.)
If you get together you'll never come together
(If her and Raphael get into a relationship it'll never work out. The "never come together" part is actually a crude reference to sex and how they wouldn't even be able to climax together, let alone devote their lives to the other person.)
Or you'll degrade yourself to writing poetry about shattered glass and rain
(When they broke up, or if she'd allow him to simply break her heart, she wouldn't be able to just admire him anymore. She'd get depressed and write crappy teen-angst poems that compare her soul to shattered glass and her tears to rain and all that lame crap.)
Right on Rilo
(Again, a flicker in her thoughts. She's trying to psyche herself up to not do anything, even though outside of her poetry she'll probably go after him anyway. At least writing this has been a step for her contradicting nature.)
Touch your eyes they're your only ones
(She only has two eyes and she should use them for herself, not waste them by spending her time staring at Raphael.)
Until your boy comes back to town
(But she kind of gives up because she knows that she can only not think of Raphael like she shouldn't, if he's not there.)
He's always on the move: moving feet by moving fingers
(He's always going from place to place, playing guitar that gets people liking his music and dancing like people used to dance.)
Oh such a glittering glitter glitter-gone
(In the first chapter of the story it talks about his "glittering guitar stings." Fast paced chords and what-not. So, the glittering guitar strings are glittering with jazz (more "glitter"), even though jazz is really dead (And "gone".)
As full of shit as he is of beauty and then some
(He's beautiful to her, but he's still full of shit and complexity.)
(Author's notes: Uh, tada? So. Was that interesting, or could it be interesting if I explained it more carefully, or do you like being confused? There's more thinking to it than simply what I explained, but it's too abstract to point those things out. I kind of write in layers, so everything is quite complicated...)
