Question: When my wife and I moved into a one-bedroom apartment, we paid two months' security, approximately $1,000. Does New York law prohibit taking more than one month's security?... B.M.,Nanuet, N.Y. Answer: The state General Obligations Law requires that interest be paid on deposits in buildings with six or more units, and sets other standards. But there is no state law that sets a limit on the amount of deposit that can be charged, although various localities have their own regulations. Charging two months' security is less common than charging one month's, but it is a practice of some landlords, according to the Citizens Guide to Housing, published by the Office of the State Ombudsman. For a copy, write to Raymond Charles, Room 4530, 2 World Trade Center, New York 10047.
Keeping It Cool Question: I am contemplating buying a town house condominium in Westchester. Central air-conditioning is not included in the price, but could be for an extra charge. The window frames are large enough for window units, and I would like to install those if I buy the home. When a homeowners' association develops, could it force me to remove them?... B.K.,Scarsdale, N.Y. Answer: Yes, it could, if the bylaws of the association include airconditioning in the powers delegated to the board. If window units are permitted now, however, it is not likely that a board will outlaw them. You might ask the sponsor to grant you permission in writing to install air-conditioners, advises a spokesman for the New York State Attorney General. Marital Exception Question:My fiance and I are planning to live in his rent-stabilized one-bedroom apartment. He has a lease with a clause that specifies occupancy by one person only. I understand that a previous tenant was evicted when he got married. Is this legal?... T.C.,Manhattan. Answer: It is legal for a landlord to include terms in his lease limiting occupancy to one person. But regardless of what the lease says, a spouse is allowed to move in, according to the Rent Stabilization Association. Landlords and Subtenants Question: I am subletting a rent-stabilized apartment in which the lease expires June 1. I would like to take over the lease at that time. If I just write out the rent check June 1, and the landlord accepts the check, will that do the trick? What else could I do? Can he evict me on June 1?... D.M.,Manhattan Answer: Assuming that the prime tenant did not follow the procedures in Section 226B of the Real Property Law to obtain the owner's permission for your occupancy, the owner has several alternatives, according to Ellis S. Franke, executive director and general counsel to the Conciliation and Appeals Board. He could offer you a vacancy lease. Or he could decide to rent to someone else and try to evict you. Or he could waive his right to object by accepting rent for an extended period of time - generally more than one month.
If the landlord gave permission for your occupancy, the next question would be whether he gave permission for subtenancy or assignment of the lease, which is a substitution of tenants. If it was an assignment, he must give you a lease. If it was a sublet and the owner is expecting the prime tenant to return, he does not have to give you a lease. If you feel that you are entitled to a lease, you may file an application with the Conciliation and Appeals Board, the agency that administers and enforces the rent-stabilization law and code. The address of the board is 10 Columbus Circle, New York 10019.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter 1
Ten Years Later
Thursday, July 23
Jan's case was exploding in front of her eyes.
She took a step back and gave herself a moment to think as she muttered, "The court's indulgence," a standard phrase used when a lawyer needs to catch his or her breath in the middle of questioning. She scanned through her papers, stalling for time as she thought about her next question. Her witness, in fact, was also the victim the woman whose rights Jan was trying to protect. Unfortunately, it was this frail woman, not more than a girl actually, who was responsible for the problem.
Jan's client was shaking not because she was frightened, but because she was a drug-addicted prostitute who was experiencing a withdrawal so intense, her ability to testify was in question. Jan held herself responsible for the girl's pain. After all, Jan had told her that she would not prosecute the case unless she agreed to be stone-cold sober for the court date. Jan knew her case was in trouble. If the jurors felt that her client's testimony was unreliable, they might just side with the defendant, who had pled not guilty. He was claiming that he had promised her drugs for sex and when he refused to give her the entire bag of crack as promised, she, in a drug-induced haze, had gone crazy and called the police.
But, as usual, Jan knew things she couldn't tell the jury. Like the fact that the defendant, Walter Harbert, had a long and nasty record. He was suspected of brutally murdering at least two other prostitutes in Anne Arundel county alone.
Jan glanced at the jury. Her client had just finished telling them the story of how Harbert had abducted her and taken her to a desolate part of a Maryland state forest where he had brutally raped her. The jury looked bored, and more than one of them could be seen glancing at the clock as if worried their lunch hour might be infringed upon.
"Okay," Jan said softly. "After he was finished did he let you go?"
"He told me he was going to play Pin the Tail on the Donkey, only with a bullet and I was the donkey. He said he'd give me a head start to run away, but told me he'd kill me for sure if I ran back toward the car. He said if I ran in the other direction, he might just let me go. So he shot his gun in the air and told me to run."
"And what did you do?"
"I grabbed my clothes and ran into the woods. I didn't even bother to get dressed until I was far away. Then I put them back on and started to head back toward the road."
Now for the climax. Jan paused as she leaned forward. "Do you see the man in the courtroom today that did this to you?"
She nodded.
"Will you point to him?"
The girl raised a short, slender finger and pointed to the tall, bearded man sitting next to his attorney. "That's him," she said. And then she proceeded to throw up.
"And then what happened?"
Jan glanced at Nick Fitzgerald as she put down her sandwich. Nick had interrupted her lunch, barging into the conference room just as she and Dave Newcombe, a fellow assistant state's attorney, pulled their deli sandwiches out of their white paper bags. It might have been bad timing, or a lack of consideration, but Nick was the state's attorney and that made him boss. He could ask questions wherever and whenever he wanted. She said, "The judge called a recess and everyone cleared out while it was being cleaned up."
Nick shook his head. "What a mess."
Just then Hank Nagimy entered, a homicide detective who was killing time before they were needed at the courthouse for testimony. Jan had known Hank for years and she liked him. He looked and sounded like a character from a gritty cop TV show: mid-fifties, short and balding with a big, friendly mouth and a thick Baltimore accent. "Hey," Hank said, holding back a chuckle. "Heard about what happened."
Jan rolled her eyes. She pulled a dry, shriveled pickle out of her bag. "Anyone want this?" she asked, waving it around.
"Who was the judge?" asked Hank.
Hank grinned. Peters was known as one of the toughest and fastest moving judges in the courts. He didn't like delays and once a case began, he often rushed through it for the sake of efficiency and out of respect for the jurors. Peters, more than any other judge, would be annoyed by an incident like that.
"What was the jury's reaction?" Nick asked.
"The old lady seemed sad for her. The rest were grossed out." She bit into her sandwich, still holding their attention. "Maybe even horrified."
"Poor GI," Hank said, referring to her by her nickname. He had christened Jan "GI" after an incident in which Jan had fought off a would-be purse snatcher in downtown Baltimore. Jan had been walking down the street with the deputy state's attorney when a burly seventeen-year-old boy had attempted to snatch her purse. She had fought him off with a swift kick to the side, knocked him down and held him there until the police arrived. Once the story started circulating around the office it became so twisted that one version even had Jan repeating lines from Dirty Harry as she wrestled the kid to the ground.
The truth of the matter was that Jan had studied karate in college, and although she was no blackbelt, she know some basic moves. That, coupled with her aggressive nature in court, had earned her the nickname. Hank continued, "Did they think she was throwing up because of her dismay at having to face the rapist or because she was going through withdrawal?"
"I don't know," Jan quipped. "I thought the judge might frown on me taking a poll."
"Where's the girl now?" Nick asked.
"Angie took her back to the hospital," she said, referring to Angie Pantky, the victim advocate.
"Who're you calling next?" Dave asked, then swallowed nearly half of his tuna fish sandwich in one bite.
"Hank," she said, motioning toward her friend. "I'll ask him about Harbert's flight from the police and grill him on all the ties Harbert told when he was picked up."
She pushed her chair back and stood up. "I'm going to run. I'll see you over there, Hank. By the way," she said, hesitating, "I heard you were finally assigned a new partner."
"I heard they had to get one from Baltimore. No one here wanted the job," Dave teased.
"That's about it," Hank said. "All too smart."
"How's he working out?" Jan asked.
Hank shrugged. "Fine enough. I think you'll be happy."
"What?" Jan asked, confused.
"As my wife said, 'he's not bad on the eyes.'"
Jan blushed. "Why would I care "
"Nice legs?" Dave asked, playing along.
"Better than my wife's," Hank said.
"Jan," Nick said impatiently. "Come into my office, would you? I want to go over some things."
So eager was she to escape the conversation, she practically jumped up. It seemed like nowadays everyone was trying to fix her up. It was as if they felt sorry for her single, lonely Jan.
But she wasn't lonely, she thought defensively. She had her friends, her career, and besides, she wasn't going to date just anybody. Dating for the sake of dating was a waste of time. She hated it. Awkward chit-chat, the uncomfortable moment of staring at the bill as it lay open on the table, waiting to see if he called her afterwards. No, she thought, following Nick down the hall. Dating was for the birds. She wasn't going to go on another date unless she was already madly in love with the guy.
Nick led her into his office and shut the door. Jan smiled as she glanced at his outfit. He was decked out in white: white shirt, white tie, white linen pants. Nick liked his clothes. He reminded Jan of a movie star from the thirties, the type of guy who seduced women while wearing a smoking jacket and drinking a martini. He went through periods where he wore monochromatic outfits, and though he had begun to experiment with new combinations, he still liked to return to the blue suit with the blue shirt and the blue tie, or the creme colored suit with the creme shirt and the creme tie. On those days, he would make color - oriented puns and though the jokes would become tired, he would always enjoy them. Some days he would bring flowers, in that same color, and drop one on the desks of all the women in his office. Today every woman had arrived at work to find a white tulip on her desk.
Nick had been the state's attorney for eight years and had just announced this was to be his last term. Everyone knew why he was leaving. He was a rising star in the Democratic party and Senator Thurman's handpicked golden boy for his replacement. When the senator retired, he planned to transfer his powerful political base over to Nick.
Jan had met Nick ten years ago, when he was an assistant state's attorney responsible for prosecuting her sister's rapist, Curtis Custin. After her sister's death, Nick had rallied to her side, taking her under his wing and encouraging her to continue with her plans to attend law school. When she had needed a job, he had been there to offer her one.
Throughout the years they maintained an entirely platonic friendship, though Nick had made some discreet advances. Jan hadn't taken offense, in fact she had been flattered. She wished she returned his affection. But despite the fact that he was a wealthy, good-looking, forty-two-year-old bachelor, never married she couldn't imagine dating him. She cared about him like a brother and the thought of kissing him was more ridiculous than anything else. He just seemed too, well, fussy for her, with his outfits and eccentricities. But still, women adored him. His easy charm and warm smile inspired women to slip him their business cards with their home phone numbers handwritten on top.
Nick said, "That was good thinking, bringing up her drug use before the defense. I'd also point out in your closing arguments that Harbert picked her for a reason. He picked her because she was a prostitute. That's why he didn't get rid of his weapon. He didn't think he had to. He never thought a drug-addicted prostitute would have the balls to go to the police."
Jan put her hand on the door as she glanced away from his deep green eyes. "Thanks, Nick," she said, anxious to get out of there. "But I already mentioned that."
He smiled. "I figured. How are you going to handle the jury?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean regarding the way your client what's her name?"
"Terry. Terry Turnbull."
"Regarding the dramatic way Ms. Turnbull left the courtroom."
Jan gave a little shrug and said, "What do you think?"
"I think you should apologize to the court and mention that she's been admitted to the hospital again. Try and work in some sympathy by letting the jurors know how physically difficult this was for her."
"Got it," Jan said. She liked the way Nick thought. "Anything else?" she asked politely.
"Yeah," he said, his voice softening. "How are you? Everything okay?" Nick had a way of connecting with a person that made them feel as if they were the only one in the world that mattered. She knew this was a habit of many successful politicians, yet she still felt embarrassed by the attention.
Blushing, she said, "Fine, Nick. Thanks. just fine."
"I'm sorry we haven't had time to go to lunch lately."
She forced a smile. "Don't worry about it. I know you're busy."
He strummed his fingers on the desk. "Okay. Go get 'em. Bring me back Harbert's head."
She gave him a quick salute before marching out.
Jan sat in the courtroom watching the jury file in. Hank had been on the stand most of the afternoon, first as a witness for the prosecution, then as a witness for the defense. Harbert's attorney had presented a weak defense, basically trying to prove that when Harbert had initially denied ever having met Jan's client, much less had sex with her, he had done so simply because he had been frightened by the interrogation tactics of a mean and nasty police force.
Jan finished her closing statement a little after four. She strolled the short distance back to her office, taking her time as she imagined the jury settling in to weigh all the evidence in the lengthy police report. But at five o'clock she received a call from the courthouse that the verdict was in. She grabbed her suit jacket and scurried back.
The remarkably brief deliberation could mean one of two things: either she had done a better job than she thought, or she had done even worse than her opponent.
As she stood in front of the judge, she wondered if she too would lose her quickly eaten lunch all over judge Peters' Lysol-disinfected room. She always fought nausea in the moments before a verdict was read. Nick had advised her to depersonalize herself from her cases, but she didn't seem able. In the seven years she had worked for the state, she had put her heart and soul into convicting these criminals and protecting their victims past, present, and future. Each case was a quiet homage to her older sister, who had been a victim of a violent rape when she was only twenty-six years old. Frannie never recovered from the brutality of the attack, and on the day after her rapist's conviction, her naked body was found floating in the Chesapeake Bay. The coroner had ruled her death a suicide, but Jan always had a tough time believing that her sister had intentionally taken her own life.
As the judge sat down behind his desk, Jan pushed these thoughts out of her mind so she could focus on the proceedings. She always thought of Frannie when the verdict came in.
"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, have you reached a verdict?"
A small, elderly lady stood up and politely said, "Yes, Your Honor."
The bailiff took the paper out of her hand and handed it to the judge. The judge read the verdict and handed it back to the bailiff. "You may read the verdict," he said to the forewoman.
Jan paused, holding her breath.
"We find the defendant, Walter Harbert, on the charge of rape, not guilty."
Not guilty. After seven years of victories, she had finally lost a case. It felt even worse than she had imagined.
Almost instinctively she glanced toward the criminal the rapist who had just been set free.
He caught her eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smug grin. Still holding her captive in his gaze, he winked.

21st Century Reformation
This is an excellent interview with Anthony Buzzard regarding the question of whether or not Christians should keep the Sabbath. Anyone with an interest in issues regarding keeping the Sabbath, new moons or holy days, dietary restrictions, etc. should not miss this important discussion of these matters. |
The Blessings andCurse of the LawTwo Great Covenants Part 1J. Dan GillThis is Part 1 of J. Dan Gill's classic studies entitled: "Two Great Covenants." In this first teaching, J. Dan talks about the wonderful blessings of the Law of Moses. He goes on to tell us, however, "There was also a downside to the law." Listening to this study is time well spent for every student of the Bible and every Christian who would better understand God's plans for the ages. |

The God of The Bible Is One - Not Three
Joel Hemphill
Great Exposition! Bible teacher Joel Hemphill lays out the Scriptural terms for how many God is. Joel's presentation leaves no room for doubt. If we are to believe the Bible, then God is "one" – not two or three.
Is the Bible's Definition of God So Difficult?
Anthony Buzzard
Anthony Buzzard masterfully addresses the matter of the extraordinary complexity which has accompanied post-Biblical definitions of God and Christ. Anthony asks and answers the question – "Is the Bible's definition of God so difficult?" He ultimately tells us "The whole of the NT is built on the scheme proposed by the oracle in Psalm 110:1." It sets forth the true and "simple" Biblical understanding of who God and Jesus really are.

Review and Critique by Barbara Buzzard
Barbara Buzzard brings us a review of "People of the Lie" by M. Scott Peck. This is a well done review of a particularly challenging subject. Peck tells us that the most damaging of all lies are the ones that we tell ourselves. Barbara says: I very much fear that Peck is correct in identifying an abrogation of moral judgment; friends and I have seen this at work in the counseling arena, accompanied by an unwillingness or inability to recognize sin.

I'm an idiot, basically. I got water on my Macbook Pro.
hiya there. I accidently just spilled water on my macbook pro. it was on and I immediately wiped it up and went to see if my touch mouse worked, which it did, then went away to get a blow dryer and paper towels and it stopped responding. I turned it off and (yes I know, a stupid move) turned it back on, and got the blinking question mark folder of death. I immediately turned it off, took the battery out, and set it in front of a fan.
any suggestions? should I let it dry a few days? remove the keyboard? take it in tomorrow? it's somewhat imperitive that I have access to it, as I need it for school and such...ugh, but I have learned. I feel like *such* an idiot. |
For now, keep the battery out, and don't plug it in for at least two days. Assuminng the damage isn't already done (question mark folder isn't encouraging) give it time.
Feel free to wait longer as well. |
You should have immediately grabbed the laptop and turned it upside down so the water wouldn't get into the computer and fry it. This is a critical move if you ever spill anything on your computer.
Switching it back on was the worst thing you could have done.
If you spill any liquid on your computer, yank out the power cord and take out the battery. After wiping off any excess liquid, let it dry for two days in a dry, warm room. Do not switch it on in the meantime! Do not use hair dryers or anything to accelerate the drying procedure. |
So are there any waterproof keypad covers for the MBP?
you might wanna go to ifixit.com and check out the guide to remove your top case. then let the computer dry for a few days.
here's some critical questions: how much liquid, where exactly did it go in, and what kind of liquid? (I've seen whole glasses of wine in laptops... smells great, but not good...) |
It was water, just a little bit, but obviously enough, I guess. I wished it'd gotten in through the keyboard it but actually got in through the mouse/trackpad...so yeah, I'm really worried that maybe I killed the hard drive. I immediately took the battery out and it's now drying in a moderate, dry room, on it's side. Blegh. Thank you for replying! |
Well, it's actually better that it seeped in through the trackpad area... In terms of possible damage anyway. Going through the keyboard down, would be where the logic board is... a very expensive repair. While the trackpad is above the hard drive, it's more likely that it damaged the HD connector as opposed to the hard drive itself.
From what it sounds like... the top case might need to be replaced, along with the hard drive flex cable or hard drive itself. The good thing is that it sounds like there's a good chance the logic board is ok. |
If you're an idiot for spilling water into your Mac notebook, then I'm an idiot three times over. :cool:
If I have any good news to report, it's that none of those incidents (one of which involved mountain dew, not water) resulted in permanent damage. Erratic behavior (especially of the keyboard), perhaps, but not any damage. Sorry to hear about your hard drive. But for the moment, operate on the assumption that the water didn't cause any damage and troubleshoot accordingly. Try booting your laptop in target disk mode, if possible, and see if the internal drive is accessible through Disk Utility. You never know -- you may get lucky! Don't lose hope, even if your machine isn't responding properly. It took over three days in dry, Utah desert air to dry out my laptop. Give 'er time. |
A fan circulating the air helps.
Also take the down time to check your homeowners policy or if you have Safeware,com insurance.... you are covered! |

Time Machine tops US box office
A film adaptation of a century-old science fiction classic has topped the US box office charts, taking $22.5m (Ł15.8m) in its first weekend.
The Time Machine, based on HG Wells' 1895 book and directed by his great-grandson Simon Wells, stars Guy Pearce, Jeremy Irons and pop star Samantha Mumba. Also made into a celebrated movie in 1960, The Time Machine tells the story of a Victorian scientist whose time-travelling experiments eventually project him into the distant future when the world is split into two races, the Eloi and the Morlocks.
The movie has pushed Mel Gibson vehicle We Were Soldiers into second place, taking an estimated $14.5m (Ł10.2m). New release All About The Benjamins, a crime comedy starring and co-written by rapper Ice Cube, took in $10.1m (Ł7.1m), a strong performance given that it opened in only 1,505 cinemas, against 2,944 for The Time Machine. Nomination The romantic comedy 40 Days And 40 Nights, starring Josh Hartnett, earned $7.1m (Ł5m) to come in at number four, John Q following with a $6m (Ł4.2m) take.
Aaliyah's Queen of the Damned, a previous number one, dropped out of the top ten. A minor hit in limited release was Monsoon Wedding, a culture clash comedy about a wedding in India, which took in $779,000 (Ł548,000) despite playing in only 76 cinemas. Overall, the box office take from the weekend's top 12 films was 34% higher than in the same weekend last year. |

You're on the right track. What you'll want to do is use the filemtime() function to get the last-modified time for each file, and build an associative array wherein the filenames are the keys and the modified-times are the values (in UNIX format, a la strtotime()). Then you can sort the array by value.

text: Open Hotel Alert Notifies You When Sold Out Hotels Make Rooms AvailableAlan Henry8/16/16 2:30pmFiled to: travelbudget travelhotelsweb servicessaving moneyshopping93EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkOpen Hotel Alert makes sure you get a spot in your preferred hotel on your next vacation, convention, or other trip—even if it's sold out when you try to book. Just tell it where you'd like to stay and when, and if the hotel is sold out now, it'll text or email you when something opens up. Advertisement The service doesn't do anything you probably couldn't do if you didn't want to sink the time in—it just checks room availability frequently for the hotel you select, and lets you know if something opens up by text or email the moment it does. You could set an alarm to check every few hours yourself, but the whole point of the service is so you don't have to.Since you get an alert as soon as something is available, you're in a position to book that room right away, and the app will give you a direct link to book to jump out and book the room (which, by the way, is how Open Hotel Alert makes money—through Booking.com's affiliate program.)

What if your estate agent could find you not just your perfect house, but your perfect job, your perfect partner...your perfect new life? Meet Iris Atkins. On paper, Iris is an estate agent, but she's not just good at finding suitable houses for her clients.
In fact, she has a gift: Iris is able to see into their lives and understand exactly what is missing and what they need - not just in bricks-and-mortar terms either. Of course, concentrating so much on fixing other people's problems doesn't leave much time for examining your own.
Over the course of one whirlwind year Iris discovers that while she may know what's best for everyone else, she doesn't necessarily know what's best for herself - and what she finds out could make her happier than she'd ever dreamed.

Lynching the DreamA protester at the Occupy LA camp in front of City Hall in Los Angeles, on November 27, 2011. (Photo: Monica Almeida / The New York Times) Lynching the Dream By William Rivers Pitt t r u t h o u t | Op-Ed Thursday 19 January 2012 This past Monday, this nation celebrated the memory of one of our greatest minds, one of our tallest souls, one of our lost children. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day celebrates the memory of our American Gandhi, a man who dedicated his life - and, in Memphis, gave his life - to the idea that is America: all are created equal. To be sure, the "Negro" was counted only as 3/5ths of a man in the document that first established the ridiculous experiment that became America, and women were counted not at all, but more than two hundred years have passed since that original ink was put to paper. Ours is a self-improving republic, thanks to the genius of those founding documents. A "Negro" now sits in the highest office of the land, and a woman (who lost the chance to sit in that exalted seat by only an eyelash or two) now commands the most important and influential position in the Federal government, save the one enjoyed by her immediate superior. Ours is a nation of genius, and of assassins, in equal measure. We reached the moon, cracked the genome code, we feed millions, liberated Europe and Asia from horrific tyranny sixty years ago, and daily export the idea that one should be able to speak their mind without fear of the gulag or the work camp or the executioner's bullet...and yet we do this even as the souls of slaughtered Native Americans, enslaved Africans, and ten times ten thousand Iraqis shriek their condemnation from the blood this nation has spilled in its pursuit of "greatness." I have been preaching this gospel, in word and deed, for almost twenty years: America is an idea. You can take our cities, our roads, whatever is left of our manufacturing base, our crops, our armies, our weapons, you can take the land itself from Portland, Maine, to Portland, Oregon...you can take it all, and the idea that is America will still remain, as robust and vital as the day it was first conceived. It is the idea that sustains me, the brilliant simplicity of actual equality, and it is the offenses to the idea that I have pledged my life against. Some will argue that I and those who believe as I do are doomed to failure. Perhaps this is true; the forces arrayed against what I and others of like mind hold true and dear are stupendous, overwhelming, and well-placed in money and in media. Even the "Hope and Change" president of the present maintains and extends the elaborate shame of our past, apparently deaf to the howls of those of us who would have him, and us, do right at long last. It is what it is, as someone once said. You look for a toehold, a place to grab on to, a front - no matter how meager - from which to wage your own siege, against all that has gone so catastrophically wrong with this old experiment, in trying to do right. We define ourselves through comparison to that which we oppose. In this, we are seldom lacking in inspiration. Take, for example, this report (http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/17/10177446-prosecutors-aim-new-weapon-at-occupy-activists-lynching-allegation) about the newest way the Powers That Be have chosen to crush and prosecute the Occupy movement. It isn't enough for a prosecutor to charge a protester who has been beaten and Maced by police with assault. No, we're going here: Sergio Ballesteros, 30, has been involved in Occupy LA since the movement had its California launch in October. But this week, his activism took an abrupt turn when he was arrested on a felony charge - lynching. Lynching: "For many African Americans growing up in the South in the 19th and 20th centuries, the threat of lynching was commonplace. The popular image of an angry white mob stringing a black man up to a tree is only half the story. Lynching, an act of terror meant to spread fear among blacks, served the broad social purpose of maintaining white supremacy in the economic, social and political spheres." Once upon a time, the (lily-white) power structure used lynching as a means of maintaining control. Now, in the shadow of the holiday celebrating Dr. King's life and work, they are deploying this accusation in order to punish and prosecute people who have exercised the right gifted by this idea, this country, this place of alleged freedom: the right to speak your piece, "to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." The idea remains intact, even after so prolonged an assault from so determined a foe. It is, as ever, worth fighting for. As Dr. King said, "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity." Dig in, people. Dig in deep. The Promised Land is far and wee, and all we have in the meantime is ourselves, our hopes, our dreams, each other, and the promise of an idea that - with our blood, sweat, and toil - may yet be fulfilled. http://www.truth-out.org/lynching-dream/1326934220

- - what is Black as Night?
what is Black as Night? How is it possible that something eaten can keep a horse's coat black? My daughter has a black horse and does not want to keep a fly sheet on him. He wears a blanket in the winter and she just feels he probably likes having nothing on in the summer. He really is so pretty in the winter I would like to do something to keep him black and shiny in the summer. Could Black as Night be harmful in any way? Do picky eaters like it? Thanks |
Juniper, I have been feeding Black as Knight for as long as I can remember. I don't feed it all year because I show and do not want a false positive on the drug test. I feed it for about 4 months in the winter/spring as they are shedding, and it works great. I have not had any problems with anyone eating it, but I do introduce it slowly, and I have not had any "problems/side affects" from using it. Please remember that this is not a cure for horses bleaching out, especially if the horse is out in the sun all the time, but it will help. On the down side it can be pricey. I usually pick mine up at Quarter Horse Congress or Equine Affair, saves on shipping and usually can get it cheeper. |
I think I will give it a try this spring. I will have to get it online. Has anyone figured out the cheapest source online? I give our horses flax meal for coats and hooves. I wonder if I should discontinue that so as to not over supplement? Thank you |
You can keep using flax meal, it should not cause any issues. The cheepest place I have found it is Big Dee's and Jeffers. Watch both of these for when it comes on sale, usually around Febuary or March. |
Thanks much. Never used those web sights before, will watch for a sale. |
Paprika. Pretty sure its a main ingredient in black as night?? Buh yea.. Feed paprika to enhance his blackness =] |

Inspired by a true story.
Is there life after death? It's a question best-selling horror novelist Jack Devlin is desperately trying to answer since his wife's suicide. His personal life has crumbled, while his career and sanity aren't far behind as his nights are spent combing through allegedly haunted places in pursuit of the supernatural, and the hope of speaking to her one last time. Some call it obsession, but Jack hopes it hasn't gone that far.
Jack's search has led him to Union, New York and a house called the Hollow. Hours away from big brother Gotham, this sleepy town has its own secrets buried just below the picturesque suburban landscape. With the help of a team of paranormal researchers, Jack starts to unlock the secrets of the Hollow, but they aren't the answers he wants… Is the Hollow haunted, or is Jack Devlin?
Devlin's Hollow is a twisted, spiraling decent into the world of the supernatural, and Jack Devlin's mind.

Vista/Seven OEM confusion?
This is the situation : my wife has a Gateway (Acer?) laptop that originally came with pre-installed OEM Vista. At the time of purchase you could register and get a free Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade disk in the post. I did that, and upgraded from this disk. Everything worked fine, no problems, everything is running well. Windows 7 is shown as OEM. However, in the event that I need to reinstall from scratch (there is a Vista? recovery partition on the hard disk) how would I go about that? Would I: 1. Recover back to Vista, and then 2. Upgrade again to Windows 7 using the upgrade media disk? I image her laptop on occasion uisng Macrium, so perhaps the easiest would be to restore from the Macrium image, if I needed too? What do you think? Is there an easier way to get a "clean reinstall" of 7 without having to spend time in Vista world first? Regards, Golden |

Hello Golden.
I would have thought a clean install with your Windows 7 Upgrade disc would be the easiest option. You don't have to have Vista installed, just the fact you've got it qualifies you for the upgrade install. Clean Install with a Upgrade Windows 7 Version The Macrium image restore should be feasible too. |

G'day Seavixen,
Yeah, thats what I thought....but reading Brink's tutorial again, he is quite adamant that this is for a Retail OS, and not OEM as in my case. Hence my confusion...... The activation on the current Windows 7 definately shows as OEM. Regards, Golden |

If it is going to be a problem then the Macrium image restore would be your next best option I would have thought. |

I would think that you are safe with the images. Keep one of the early images (in case you have to go wayyy back) and then go with the current images. I always keep a bunch (about 10).
My System Specs |
30 Oct 2011 | #8 |
Hello Golden,
It depends on if it's a "retail" OEM copy like you buy at a store, or a "factory recovery" OEM copy. Most likely it's the retail OEM type though. If so, you should be able to use that tutorial to do a clean install from a upgrade copy with it. To be safe, I would recommend not to delete the Vista factory recovery partition, and to create a set of Vista factory recovery disc in case you may need them. |
My System Specs |
30 Oct 2011 | #9 |
The factory Upgrade kits should include a clean copy DVD of Win7 with an attached Product Key, as specified by MS for manufacturers to participate in the program.
You can clean reinstall with Upgrade version in most cases without even having to do the workaround given in the tutorial, since the booted installer detects the underlying OS to allow use of Upgrade version key even if you go on to use Custom install Drive Options to format C or repartition. In this case I believe the key's provided are OEM so that it doesn't even need to see an OS to allow key up front. |
My System Specs |
30 Oct 2011 | #10 |
Thanks guys.
I'll browse the contents and see if there is anything to suggest that its a "retail OEM" as opposed to a "factory OEM" - the DVD disk has Gateway logo's all over it, but it does, as Greg suggests, have a MS sticker and product key stuck on the back. My Macrium image includes the Recovery partition, but I will make a set of recovery disks so I have all the bases covered. I'll post back about the contents once I have a chance to examine the disk. Regards, Golden |

Having Quicktime installed causes live to freeze up when loading some mp3s
This has been reported on the forums for a while but I don't know if there is a long term fix. Basically if I have quicktime installed (which I believe ableton uses to decode some mp3 and mp4 files) then some of my mp3s cause ableton to freeze up. If I uninstall quicktime, most of those mp3s work but then ableton won't play mp3s with artwork embedded (as well as itunes DRM free aac files).
Apart from converting everything to wavs, does anyone have a solution?
1 answer
59 answers
71 votes received0 votesAccording to what i know, the only solution by the moment is to convert the ID3 from Mp3 files to ID1 version.
If you are a Windows user, you can do this with Winamp, for example, where you can edit the file info and the ID3 from any mp3 file.
Even if a track is loaded up in Native Instrument´s Traktor Pro / Traktor 2 , it s been known that Ableton wont load Mp3 because they seem to be harmed.
The quick solution does not come with Quicktime, you should work your files without letting any application to upgrade the IDs.5 years ago | 0 comments

The Cubs didn't get a deal done as of this writing, but we learned a lot about what to expect. It isn't much different than our original preview. It also mirrors what we talked about on our "Rebuilding the Cubs" article.
The Cubs have 3 roster spots open for now and will lose one once Kyuji Fujikawa signs, probably on Friday. They seem to be looking at 3 major needs. But don't expect them to pick up big names. Theo Epstein specifically mentioned the non-tender market.
"I like the timing- non-tenders coming right before the Winter Meetings. It's the right thing to do for the players and the clubs, to move the (non-tender date) up a little bit and give the players a real market opportunity."
5 things to keep an eye on
- A bullpen arm, probably a lefty. If were talking non-tenders, than Manny Parra stands out to me, as we mentioned before. He has the best stuff and has some connection to the Cubs coaching staff, particularly manager Dale Sveuem and pitching coach Chris Bosio. The Nats have two potential LHP for the bullpen in John Lannan and Tom Gorzelanny. Lannan could serve as rotation insurance as well.
- The Cubs "may have to get creative" when filling the 3B void and may have to go with a platoon. If so, Luis Valbuena looks to be the long end of the platoon with the Cubs finding someone to spell him against LH pitching. Mark Reynolds is a non-tender guy but the Cubs seem to be leaning toward defense. Indians 3B Jack Hannahan is another, more defensive-oriented option. The Cubs have also shown interest in FA Jeff Keppinger, who is solid at 3B. Placido Polanco and Brandon Inge are also RH, good defensive 3Bs. But it may not necessarily be a "natural 3B.
"[We might have to] rely on players who haven't held down that position over 150 games in the big leagues or rely on a platoon or rely on someone who is more of a middle-of-the-field player who can provide plus defense over at third," Epstein said Monday on the first day of the Winter Meetings. "There are not a lot of obvious fits of everyday third basemen in trade or free agents available right now. When that happens, you don't throw in the white towel but try to be creative to piece it together."
- The Cubs then may look at middle infielders who can make the transition and play good defense at 3B, even if their bat might not quite play there. There are everyday players like Stephen Drew available through FA, or someone like Yunel Escobar available through trade. Escobar is more likely because Drew would have to agree to switch positions. A FA darkhorse, a guy the Cubs were interested in signing last year is 29 year old Japanese IF Hiroyuki Nakajima. Like the Cubs recent signing from Japan, Kyuji Fujikawa, He's a SS by trade but some think he's a better fit at 2B or 3B. Nakajima hit .311/.382/.451 in the NPB last year with 13 HRs. The line is also close to his career marks, though he has slugged .474 for his career with a high of 22 HRs.
- The Cubs aren't set on signing a CF, reasoning that David DeJesus could play there if they feel they can get better value with a RF. There are some FAs who could add some power while providing steady corner defense. Scott Hairston and Cody Ross come to mind. Non-tender candidates include Ryan Sweeney, Nate Schierholz, and Ben Francisco.
- This is a deep Rule 5 draft but Paul Sullivan says don't rule out the possibility that the Cubs could pick a player for another team and trade him for a prospect. That could save them a spot on both the 25 and 40 man rosters while still adding a piece for the future. I've mentioned that there are some very good hitting prospects who are probably best suited for the AL, or at least a team that needs a 1B. Could the Cubs select one and trade them to a team looking for hitting such as the A's, Orioles, or Mariners? Just speculation.

Now that islamist fundamentalists have been driven from Timbuktu, accounts are emerging about the ingenious ways that ancient documents were saved from destruction by the extremists.
Many historic mausoleums had already been destroyed in the UNESCO heritage site.
To save as many documents as possible, the head of one private collection hid a consignment in a load of laundry and sent them to safety down the river.
At the vast public Ahmed Baba library, staff member Hassiny explained how after being threatened over and over, his boss sent money to buy sacks of rice where they hid more historic documents.
Despite the efforts to protect them, around 3,000 ancient documents perished.
UNESCO has promised 7.5 million euros to help rebuild Timbuktu's heritage.

"Don't get me wrong. I loved my sister. I never, not once, wished her dead."
Brady and Sabine Wilson are sisters born eleven months apart, but they couldn't be more different. Popular Sabine, the head cheerleader dating the high school hunk, seems to have all the luck, while her younger, artsy sister "Brady Brooder" is a loner who prefers the sidelines to the limelight.
After Sabine dies in a horrific cheerleading accident, grief unravels Brady and her family. Once recognized for her artistic talent, 17-year-old Brady finds herself questioning the value of everything she once held dear. Her best friend betrays her. Her parents' marriage is crumbling. And the boy everyone blames for the accident seems to be her only ally in the search for answers in the wake of her sister's death. As an unlikely friendship emerges, Brady learns more about Sabine—and love—than she bargained for.

Strain Highlights
This is the combination of LA Confidential and OG Kush. This strain was created by DNA Genetics and it has blankets of crystals and looks almost grayish-black.
The effect is good for pain, eating and sleep disorders. Most describe Cataract as a "creeper" high that keeps on building long after you stop smoking! This strain has been years in the making and is NOT recommended for the light-weight smoker. After you experience the Cataract Kush you'll think you have cataracts!

"Super dense buds, often with some purple/grey/blue coloration, thick stems and opaque, white trichomes. Smell is classic indica - earthy and dank with an animalic note, yet there's a strong sweet/minty/spicy aspect that seems to really carry. The vapor from this one is thick, sweet and permeating. Overall, very pleasant aroma though problematic if you're trying to keep the smell down. The buzz is fairly long-lasting ..."
