Figure 1 - Various types of bicycle goosenecks A bicycle gooseneck (also known as a "stem") is a very simple mechanical device used to fasten the handlebars to the front fork stem, but there are a few things to be aware of that will make your bicycle building hobby much easier. Different style goosenecks are available to fit the type of cycle and handlebars used. Figure 1 shows various common gooseneck styles: a standard mountain bike gooseneck made of steel (left), a pillow block style BMX gooseneck (center), and a threadless aluminum goseneck (right).
Figure 2 - The wedge secures the gooseneck Figure 2 shows how the wedge slides along the gooseneck stem, creating a friction fit along the inside wall of the fork stem it is inserted into. The top of Figure 2 shows the relaxed position of the wedge, allowing it to be inserted, along with the gooseneck into the fork stem and the lower image shows how the wedge is pulled up and out, creating a very tight fit between the fork stem and gooseneck.
Figure 3 - Steps to remove a wedge type gooseneck If you have never removed a gooseneck from a fork stem, then your first instinct may be to simply loosen the bolt and then attempt to pull the gooseneck from the fork stem, and this may actually work if the bicycle is brand new. However, the bolt could be taken completely from the gooseneck and not make any difference whatsoever. The "trick" to removing a wedge type gooseneck from a fork stem is to only loosen the bolt so it sticks up past the top of the gooseneck by about half an inch (left of Figure 3), and then pound it back down with a mallet as shown in the right of Figure 3. This action pushes the wedge away from the gooseneck stem, effectively removing all friction between the wedge and the inside of the fork stem. At this point, you will be able to hold the front wheel or forks, and then work the handlebars back and forth to pull up the gooseneck. Rust and dirt will be your only enemies once the wedge has been pushed down a bit.
Figure 4 - Loosening the handlebar clamp To remove the handlebars from the gooseneck, the clamp must be relaxed by loosening the nut as shown in Figure 4. Usually, a few turns will be enough to loosen the clamp enough to push the handlebars free from the stem, but if there is a buildup of rust, you may need to remove the bolt completely to pry the clamp apart a bit using a flat head screwdriver. Be careful if prying an aluminum gooseneck clamp though, as aluminum is brittle and prone to break easily.

'Reboot. It's almost a dirty word in the entertainment industry. For every successful Batman revision, there's a hundred Spidermans littered on the side of the road. With games and movies barely a generation old, the frequency of the reboots are getting ever closer and closer to the original. If it doesn't work the first time, try and try again apparently.'
bu-bu-but if this was an awful game like all of the crybabies have been claiming, why is it constantly getting great reviews?

Case in point: The recently released Pelosi, er I mean House health care bill. C'mon, even those of you who passionately believe in the cause of health care reform have to be embarrassed by this? A 1,990 page health care bill? Tolstoy's War and Peace is shorter! Price tag $1 trillion? Didn't we just spend a trillion on the stimulus package? The total revenue collected by the US government in 2008 was only $2.5 trillion! How much money do these lunatics think we have?
Nobody is going to read this bill. And if they do, no one will understand what it does. Isn't health care an important enough issue that if we're going to pass sweeping reform legislation, it ought to be comprehensible to the average college graduate?
To use a crude but easily understood metaphor: If I see something that has the size, shape, and smell of a giant turd, I can safely assume it's a giant turd without having to cut it open. The truth is that most of the verbiage isn't there to accomplish needed reforms – it's there to conceal all the stuff that they don't want us to realize they put in the bill, like favors to special interests. If I were the chair of a committee that produced such an abomination, I would be ashamed. Fortunately, most Congressmen shed any lingering sense of shame before taking office.

More layouts using Dino Bundle

Nice layout and the colors are great.
Cute layout. The colors totally remind me of Hawaii. I like the placement of the square photos perpendicular to the background stripe.
Awesome layout and I LOVE Hawaiin Shaved Ice.
Thanks for the nice comments ladies!
@Kaleena... you're absolutely right, I totally misspelled Hawaiian! Thanks for letting me know!
Oh, I like the layout and colors
I really like the placement of things on this page - and the ribbon behind the photos.
Is there a reason you wrote "Hawaiin" instead of "Hawaiian?" (Don't want to sound mean or something but I would be sad if I printed a layout and didn't realize I had misspelled something - but for all I know that is how the name of the shop you stopped at is spelled ^^)
I love this layout! Great paper selection and such fun photos!
Great page, love the photos, journalling and layout :)

text: It's been a decade since, though the miracle of then-new-fangled Internet search engines, I learned I was not alone. I was Geoff Mulvihill, the student journalist with the funny name. He was Geoff Mulvihill, a guy who got his name on the Web when he took third place in a New Zealand fishing competition. The two of us are Google twins, born 23 years apart but connected because we share a name. Before the Web, it would have been an oddity to know about a non-famous non-relative with your name. Now it's hard not to know a thing or two about them. Almost everyone I've asked has a Google twin tale, many of them involving middle-school athletes and small-town politicians. The thing about Google twins is that you don't set out to find out about them: You stumble upon them when you're trying to quantify your own cyberspace significance. I auto-Google because I want to know which Web sites are using my work and which bloggers are picking it apart. The New Zealand Geoff Mulvihill has long been muddying my searches. He owns a pub in Timaru and has become known for defying his nation's anti-smoking laws. News stories about him and the WIN political party he helped form in 2004, are always among the top "Geoff Mulvihill" hits. The mug shot that comes up on Google Images is his, not mine. I try not to be hurt by that. At least I have only one Google twin to worry about. Fairfax, Va., lawyer David Wilson keeps tabs on plenty of folks who share his name. "I don't have Google twins, I have a Google family," said Wilson, 33. "David Wilson is a home builder in the U.K., a computer scientist for Microsoft, a federal magistrate in Washington state, a math professor in several places 'round the world, an evolutionary theorist, the director (former) of Saturday Night Live, a former Hong Kong governor (Lord David Wilson to you), a British National Party member arrested for distributing 'hate literature' against Muslims in Scotland, etc." Then there are Dan Heaton and Dan Heaton. One is a 30-year-old sales proposal writer and part-time online movie reviewer in St. Louis; the other is a 24-year-old unicyclist from Bellevue, Wash. The movie reviewer gets plenty of search hits. The Web site of the Criterion Collection, for instance, quotes from his review of its DVD of Alfred Hitchcock's "Notorious." A few years ago, his self-searches started turning up the extreme unicyclist, who is perhaps the most prominent producer of unicycling videos. "He does steal my thunder a bit," the St. Louis Heaton said. The one-wheeling Heaton knows about the movie reviewer. "Everyone's got to self-Google themselves," he said. His twin, at least, does not cause confusion. "I haven't heard from anyone else that's Googled my name that he gets in the way of things," he said. Neither Dan Heaton has been tempted to contact the other. But after all these years of knowing about him, I decided to call the other Geoff Mulvihill. Did he know there was another Geoff Mulvihill in the world? Has he been admiring my work from his hemisphere? "I never actually thought about it, to be honest," said the 54-year-old publican. "I'm not exactly a computer whiz kid." Ouch. At least there was this: He called me "mate." And for once, I could give someone my name without needing to spell it. ___ Geoff Mulvihill, the Mount Laurel, N.J.-based Associated Press writer, consulted a search engine before settling on names for either of his daughters to make sure they would not start their lives with notorious Google twins. ___


text: Hello, I own a canon 20d. I shoot with the tamron 28-75 f2.8 and the kit lense. I assisted last season as a second shooter and built my portfolio with these two lenses. Next season I will be acting as a second shooter and also leading some weddings on my own. I like the tamron I have. But it's time to add a better wide angle zoom to what I have. Now I understand that there are some lenses that are designed specificly for crop factor involved with non-full frames sensors like the one in my 20d. I would like to if possible purchase a lense that will work on my 20d and on a 5d if I happen to purchase one in say 2 years. I also need whatever wide angle zoom I buy to be fast. Idealy atleast f2.8. And I would also like this magical lense To be under $500. (or close as possible) Give me the world, and give it cheap. Thanks And since I want

| Do any of you grow Dutchess of Edinburgh? Anyone out there have experience with this one? I have a customer that wants one quite badly because of it's beauty. However she is concerned after reading that all parts of it are poisonous, and can cause allergic reactions while working around it. Any comments would be appreciated... Thanks!

|I grow Duchess of Edinburgh and I'm highly prone to dermatitis, but I've never had a problem with any Clematis vine. I tried to find some research on this, but when I search for "clematis Duchess of Edinburgh allergy," the only site that comes back with all of those words is Dave's Garden Plant Files. I don't know where they got that information. I can't find it anywhere else.

|ZuZu Thanks for your reply... The Duchess sure has beautiful blooms. I guess I am interested because I had never heard of any Clems being poisonous. I too am kind of prone to skin reactions from plants and I want to be careful if we do put this one in her garden.

"A finely crafted ensemble and a balanced grace makes this debut novel as hard to resist as blue ribbon gumbo." —Craig Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of the Walt Longmire Mysteries, the basis for the Netflix hit drama LongmireDark River Rising is a tense and expertly-plotted mystery set against the bayous of Louisiana, from debut author Roger Johns.
Baton Rouge Police Detective Wallace Hartman has had better days. With her long-time partner and mentor on medical leave and a personal life in shambles, she's called to the scene of a particularly gruesome murder: the body of a known criminal has been found in a deserted warehouse, a snake sewn into his belly. Obvious signs of torture point to a cunning and cold-blooded killer who will stop at nothing to find what he's looking for.
When Federal Agent Mason Cunningham arrives on the scene, Wallace expects a hostile takeover of the case. But when a scientist with ties to the victim goes missing from a government lab, she needs Mason's federal connections as much as he needs her local insight, and the two form an uneasy partnership to solve a case that grows more complicated—and dangerous—by the minute.
Meanwhile, the killer lurks in the shadows with an agenda no one saw coming, and when Wallace and Mason threaten to get in the way they risk losing everything they hold dear. Including their lives.

Online news sites could be the survivors of the dot-com downturn, a survey released Wednesday suggests, as adult workers are reportedly racking up more time reading news and information online than they are consuming traditional media such as television, newspapers, radio and magazines.
According to a survey conducted by Market Facts Inc. for news site MSNBC.com, the at-work audience increasingly find themselves accessing online news for personally relevant information such as weather, stock quotes and local news.
In fact, of the 351 users surveyed, 35 percent of respondents use the Internet for news and information during the day, while 25 percent read newspapers, 21 percent peruse magazines and 17 percent listen to the radio. Another 6 percent get their at-work news from broadcast television and 3 percent watch cable television, the survey said.
Furthermore, the Internet is the medium of choice for national news, with 37 percent of respondents saying they go online for this purpose, compared to the 25 percent who get their national news from cable TV and 18 percent who prefer broadcast TV.
The three news topics Internet users find most important are local news, national news and world news.
Not surprisingly, the survey finds that workers with broadband connections access more streaming video, audio and rich media. High-speed Internet users said they watch streaming video 5.1 times a month, versus dial-up users who report watching streaming video 1.5 times per month, the survey said.
While the findings may be heartening for online news providers, the plethora of existing news sites and the cost of producing content makes competition fierce. Many news providers have turned from a free to a subscription business model to keep up, while some have closed down.

text: [[Haruki Murakami]] on talent: "The problem with talent, though, is that in most cases the person involved can't control its amount or quality. You might find the amount isn't enough and you want to increase it, or you might try to be frugal and make it last longer, but in neither case do things work out that easily. Talent has a mind of its own and wells up when it wants to, and once it dries up, that's it. Of course, certain poets and rock singers whose genius went out in a blaze of glory—people like Schubert and Mozart, whose dramatic early deaths turned them into legends—have a certain appeal, but for the vast majority of us this isn't the model we follow."

Syria Has Never Given Up Its Regional Role even During Ongoing Terrorist War: Shaaban
DAMASCUS, (ST)- The Presidential Political and Media Advisor Bouthaina Shaaban has stressed that Syria constitutes a key pillar for the Arab future and it has never given up its Arab and regional role even during the terrorist war which has been continuous on the country for seven years.
Interviewed by al-Mayadeen TV last night, Dr. Shaaban said "President Bashar Al-Assad, during his meetings, always concentrates on the idea that Palestine is the compass and that the Arab-Israeli conflict is the core of the Syrian stance", while at the same time, she added, the Gulf states keep working to undermine the Palestinian cause.
"Today, Syria is getting out of its main battle against terrorism, although some schemes being plotted by conspirators against the country continue," Shaaban said, adding "we feel that the situation on ground has become better".
She noted the start of reconstruction in Homs and Aleppo.
The presidential advisor went on to say that Israel, which has been playing a major role in the war on Syria, has realized that the axis of resistance which is confronting this war has become stronger, so it won't take the risk and launch a new aggression. She reiterated that Syria won't hesitate in defending itself against the Israeli sinister aspirations and it won't allow Israel to single out Hizbollah because Syria and Hizbollah have a common destiny.
On the Syrian national Dialogue Congress, called for by Moscow, Shaaban said "the Syrian government is always the first to comply with any effort to solve the crisis in Syria and it is now ready to attend this congress."
Concerning the presence of Erdogan's army forces on the Syrian territories, Shaaban said "the presence of Turkish troops in our territory is illegal and we will deal with it on this basis and on the proper time."
She pointed out that the Washington-led coalition has destroyed Raqqa entirely under the complete silence of the international media.
On Naseeb border crossing at the borders with Jordan, Shaaban said the Syrian government won't accept partnership in supervising this crossing.

The 2009 ALMA Awards have been handed out, with the presentation to be broadcast on September 18th on ABC. Here are Lovetripper's picks for the most caliente couture creations of the evening:
1) Her winning ways led Selena Gomez to the podium to receive an award for her role in The Wizards of Waverly Place, and the Disney Channel darling's Tracy Reese Black Label look lands her the top spot in our style stakes.
2) Eva Longoria-Parker stepped onstage in seven knockout numbers as co-host of the elegant event. Unable to choose which design we thought was most divine, here's a look at three of our favorite frocks on the Desperate Housewives star:
3) Fast & Furious star Jordana Brewster had hearts racing when she stepped out on the red carpet in this lemon yellow look, which Red Carpet Fashion Awards reports is by designer Reem Acra:
4) Whoa, Nelly! Just days after making an appearance on our Best Dressed list for her stylish Elie Saab dress at the VMAs, Nelly Furtado— who has just released her first all-Spanish CD, Mi Plan— is once again a winner in the wardrobe department in this scandalously sultry silhouette by the same designer.
5) The word is out that Francia Raisa, a star of the ABCFamily series The Secret Life of The American Teenager, looked stunning in this Jean Fares Couture creation:
Honorable Mention
A design of understated elegance, Salma Hayek's Bottega Veneta dress showcased her fit frame when the actress walked onstage to receive the Anthony Quinn Award for her body of work.

Check out my latest article in Embellish magazine – chatting about dyeing auxillaries this time. Thinking about this and the images I used took me back to when I was dyeing silk cocoons. Not the easiest thing to do using the traditional steamed fixing with a steamer pot – they all go soft and flatten. So what's the answer – using a microwave to steam the little things!!
Now that microwaves are a lot cheaper its possible to get either a second hand one or cheap one for dyeing. I had bought one for $60 but then it ended up in the kitchen when my daughter tried to defrost toast for 20mins in my old microwave. I didn't notice the smoke until the 12th minute… But the cheapie microwave only lasted about 12 months and a day and then died..right when Brisbane flooded and it wasn't possible to get out to get a newbie. So the old faithful came back into the kitchen, smelt a bit of smoke but has still kept on going strong.
Next cheapie purchase – the microwave was now $45. Also microwave containers with that plastic grill thing at the bottom to hold the coccons above the excess dye liquid. You need to used separate containers for dyeing and cooking otherwise you could end up very sick. Next stage – experiment.. pour small amounts of acid dye over the cocoons and then steam for 10 seconds in microwave, allow to cool and then rinse to check its set. Tips – only pour small amounts of dye onto the cocoons as the dye streads and you really don't need a lot of dye. You also want to steam the cocoons not boil them!
Why acid dyes? They give the best colour on silk. My favourite acid dye? Jacquard Acid dyes – excellent colour and easy to use. The acid involved is vinegar. Take 1 cup of hot water, 1 drop of detergent, 2 teaspoons of dye powder and a dollop of vinegar (12.5mls for the pedantic!) and mix to dissolve dye. This solution is now active. Pour carefully over cocoons in microwave bowl. Steam for the length of time you have determined for your machine (I did 10 seconds for mine). If you are concerned about burning then if the microwave is powerful, drop the power level to at least 70% to start with. Allow to cool, then rinse in water. Best of all you end up with brillant colour and the cocoons keeping their shape.
Lastly – SAFETY FIRST with all this. (Okay – the first thing is last, I know…) Use separate containers for all the dye stuff, wear protective colthes including gloves, dust mask when mixing up the powder and never use any kitchen utensils for dyeing – buy a separate set of microwave dishes as well as the microwave!! Also easy does it – don't saturate the cocoons with heaps of excess dye. Above all, look after yourself and enjoy the dyeing process.

I'm in a bit of a quandry. All of a sudden my laptop running XP Pro SP3 seems to have started not letting me open some of my programs and settings. It wont let me open the volume settings to adjust the volume, it wont let me open Microsoft Office's Access, Excel etc... but it will always let me open word. It wont let me open things like notepad either.
I have tried looking for answers but all I am getting is, "Just reinstall all the programs that don't work"
any ideas?

For 10 years we have been using the Sustainability Report to describe
our commitment in doing business responsibly. This choice derives
from our desire to keep a constant dialogue with our stakeholders, providing
a transparent and effective tool for evaluating our actions, checking
our results and sharing our commitment for the future.
Since 2014, the contents of the sustainability report have been
selected according to the materiality principle, by focusing on the economic, environmental and social aspects that are essential both for us as
Aquafil Group and for all of its stakeholders.
Starting in 2014, we decided to adopt the principle of materiality to present in a new way the results of our efforts, involving our stakeholders in the selection of topics to be discussed in the sustainability report.
The materiality matrix on the right, provides the graphical representation of this concept: the intersection of our interests with those of our stakeholders is in the box on the upper right.

This past week, my mini and I went to San Diego to visit my brother and my new baby nephew. Lucky for us, we have lots of friends and family in San Diego. We got to stay at my in-laws house and that's where she discovered it…the dollhouse. There are few things that my mini will play with for hours at a time (or at least an hour straight…which in 3 year old time is forever)–her kitchen and her slime currently top the list. But this, this was a game changer. She's at that fun stage where her imagination runs wild. She was full dialogue with her dolls (the few she has). She takes them all over the house in the stroller on errands, to the doctor, etc. When I saw her playing with this dollhouse every single day for hours at a time I immediately knew we had to get one for her. So, I did what I normally do…hopped on Amazon to see what the options were. That's when I was in for a big shock!
I was just going to buy her the same one that my in-laws had. It was a good size, folded up when not in use but when folded out had extra rooms. I think it had something like 6 rooms, a family, furniture for the bathroom, kitchen, and dining room. Little did I know that each of those things would be separate purchases, that specific dollhouse is no longer made, and something similar with all that stuff would cost me at least $200. What?! How? Why? I kept up my search…everything that looked good (and not cheap) was so expensive. So, to Pinterest I went. There were so many options there, some that probably would have cost more than purchasing something from Amazon/Toys R Us, etc, but man they were pretty. I fell in love with THIS ONE and especially loved it's dual purpose for later when dollhouses aren't so cool. But, let's face it, I'm not about to tackle this big project. So, I came up with the idea to just use those cubby shelves. And with that a new Pinterest search started, and inspiration hit!
Materials: This cubby shelf, 12 pieces of scrapbook paper (which was on sale for 25 cents each), double stick tape or mod Podge, assorted doll furniture and dolls.
I build the shelves, then started to Mod Podge the paper to the back and "floor". Similarly, you could just use double stick tape and get a nicer, smoother finish. Add in the furniture and voila. Done! My mini had lots of fun picking out the paper for the kid bedroom and bathroom. I picked the rest. The result…
It still needs some work (more furniture, maybe some rugs), but for under $100, my mini is in LOVE with the results. She played with it for 3 hours straight…so that is a big success in my book!
Boy variation: each room could be a superhero's lair, or each room a different place (firehouse, police station, car garage). The options are endless.

Video: Colorado is Awesome
In case you needed more proof that Colorado is pretty awesome, a company called Video Blend decided to create a series of 100 videos that demonstrated that vary notion. They've been posting those clips on a website called awsmcolorado.com, with each video spotlighting a particular aspect of the state. The video below is their recap of the first 50 videos, giving us a brief look at 50 reasons why Colorado is great. Most of us don't need a reminder of that fact, but we'll certainly take one when it looks this great.

David Rockefeller, 1915-2017David Rockefeller was born on June 12, 1915 in New York City, the youngest of the six children of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. and Abby Aldrich Rockefeller. He attended Lincoln School of Columbia University's Teachers College in New York for 12 years and graduated from Harvard University in 1936 with a bachelor of science degree. After post-graduate study at Harvard and the London School of Economics, he received a Ph.D. degree in economics from the University of Chicago in 1940. His doctoral thesis, "Unused Resources and Economic Waste," was published by the University of Chicago Press in 1940.
On September 7, 1940, David Rockefeller married the former Margaret "Peggy" McGrath. They were married for nearly 56 years when she died in 1996. Together they raised two sons and four daughters.
From 1940 to 1941, David Rockefeller served as secretary to New York City Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia. He then served as assistant regional director of the United States Office of Defense, Health and Welfare Service (1941-1942) before enlisting as a private in the U.S. Army in May 1942. He entered Officer Candidate School in 1943 and was discharged as a captain in 1945. During World War II he served in North Africa and France, where for seven months he was an assistant military attache in Paris. He was awarded the U.S. Legion of Merit, the U.S. Army Commendation Ribbon and the French Legion of Honor.
Business Career
After the war David Rockefeller began a career in banking. He joined the Chase National Bank as an assistant manager in the foreign department in 1946. He was appointed an assistant cashier in 1947, second vice president in 1948 and vice president in 1949. From 1950 to 1952, he was responsible for the supervision of Chase's business in Latin America where, under his direction, new branches were opened in Cuba, Panama and Puerto Rico, plus a representative office in Buenos Aires. In 1952 he was named a senior vice president with responsibility for supervising the economic research department and customer relations in the metropolitan New York area, including all the New York City branches.
When Chase National and the Bank of the Manhattan Company merged on March 31, 1955, David Rockefeller was appointed an executive vice president in charge of the bank development department. On January 1, 1957, he became vice chairman of the Board of Directors with responsibility for the administrative and planning functions of the bank as a whole. He became president of the bank and chairman of the executive committee of the Board of Directors on January 1, 1961. On March 1, 1969 David Rockefeller became chairman of the Board of Directors and chief executive officer of The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. in New York and of The Chase Manhattan Corporation upon its formation on June 4, 1969. He retired in 1981. During his career with Chase Manhattan, Rockefeller gained a worldwide reputation as a leading banker and spokesman for the business community. He spearheaded the bank's expansion both internationally and throughout the metropolitan New York area and helped the bank play a significant role as a corporate citizen.
Philanthropy and Public Service
In addition to his work with Chase Manhattan, David Rockefeller has been a leader in many public and private projects, reflecting his wide-ranging interests in international, governmental, civic and cultural affairs and his belief in collaboration between government and the private sector.
In 1940 David Rockefeller became a member of the Board of Trustees of The Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, which had been established in 1901 by his grandfather, John D. Rockefeller. A decade later he succeeded his father as chairman of the Institute's Board of Trustees, serving in that capacity for 25 years (1950-1975). Working with Detlev Bronk, Rockefeller led the transformation of the research institute into a biomedical graduate university, which was renamed The Rockefeller University in 1965.
Along with his brothers - John D. 3rd, Nelson, Laurance, and Winthrop - David Rockefeller established the Rockefeller Brothers Fund (RBF) in 1940. It became "the most significant joint philanthropic endeavor" of the "brothers' generation" of the Rockefeller family, he later recalled, becoming "the principal vehicle for our support of groups in fields such as population, conservation, economic development, urban affairs, and basic scientific research" (Memoirs, p. 142). He also helped found the Rockefeller Family Fund in 1967 and joined with his brothers in a number of other philanthropic, economic development and investment enterprises.
Among the other family philanthropic enterprises he served was the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), which his mother had helped create. Following her death in 1948, David Rockefeller was invited to take her seat on the board of directors. He served a brief stint as interim chairman of the board in 1958, and longer periods in that capacity in 1962-1972 and 1987-1993. He also is a life trustee of the University of Chicago (which his grandfather helped establish) and an honorary trustee of International House (New York), established by his father.
In 1958 Rockefeller helped establish the Downtown-Lower Manhattan Association (D-LMA), serving as its chairman, 1958-1975. Its planning proposals aided the redevelopment of lower Manhattan and led to the creation of the World Trade Center. He also played a major role in the development of the Morningside Heights neighborhood on the Upper West Side of Manhattan as president (1947-1957) and then chairman (1957-1965) of Morningside Heights, Inc. As chairman of the New York City Partnership (1979-1988), he was a leader in organizing the city's business sector to work with government on such major public issues as economic growth, summer jobs for students, improving the city's schools, and housing development.
He was also instrumental in the formation of the International Executive Service Corps (chairman, 1964-1968), a group of businessmen who volunteer to provide technical and managerial assistance to private enterprise in developing countries. He also helped form The Business Committee for the Arts in 1967.
In the realm of international affairs, David Rockefeller has established and worked with a variety of organizations that further his belief in "constructive engagement" and the promotion of dialogue among businessmen and government officials across national borders. In 1949 he became a director of the Council on Foreign Relations, an educational institution where leaders from the field of scholarship and the public and private sectors meet periodically to expand their perspectives on foreign affairs; he served as the council's chairman from 1970 to 1985. He also attended the annual Bilderberg meetings, established by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, from their inception in 1954. In 1973, he helped found the Trilateral Commission, an organization designed to promote understanding and cooperation among the nations of North America, Western Europe and Japan.
In the early and mid 1960s Rockefeller helped organize both the Council of the Americas and the Center for Inter-American Relations, which worked to maximize private enterprise contributions and cultural and intellectual exchanges in the development of Latin America. These were reorganized as the Americas Society in 1982. He also helped to establish the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies at Harvard University, which opened in 1994.
He also has been an officer in the Advisory Council on Japan-United States Economic Relations and the National Council for U.S.-China Trade, and a member of the Bulgarian-U.S. Economic Council; the U.S.-Egyptian Joint Business Chamber; the U.S.-Iran Joint Business Council; and a director of U.S.-U.S.S.R. Trade and Economic Council, Inc.
Rockefeller Center
In the 1980s and 1990s, David Rockefeller played an active role in the financing and ownership of the Manhattan landmark his father had built, Rockefeller Center. In March 1982 he became chairman of Rockefeller Center, Inc., which was renamed Rockefeller Group, Inc. (RGI) the following year. He oversaw efforts to beautify, diversify and unify Rockefeller Center, which included capital improvements to modernize the facility. In January 1985 RGI bought the twelve acres of land underneath the buildings from Columbia University for $400 million, "the highest per-acre price ever paid for a parcel of urban real estate" (Memoirs, p. 469). A new company, Rockefeller Center Properties, Inc., was formed to offer stock in Rockefeller Center in a public sale; the public offering raised $1.3 billion, which RCPI lent to RGI in exchange for a mortgage on the land and buildings of Rockefeller Center. In September 1989, David Rockefeller and his associates sold 80% of RGI to the Mitsubishi Estate Corporation of Japan for $1.373 billion. Even though the Rockefeller family retained ownership of 20% of Rockefeller Center, the sale of a controlling interest in such a prominent landmark was controversial. But the sale came at the end of a real estate boom in Manhattan and on the eve of a worldwide real estate recession; in the changed marketplace, Rockefeller Center went bankrupt in May 1995.
Disappointed by the bankruptcy of the landmark bearing the family name, David Rockefeller assembled a group of investors that bought Rockefeller Center in March 1996. Rockefeller insisted that his partners agree to hold onto the property for five years before considering a sale. During that time, as the real estate recession ended, the Center's management refurbished the facility and made it more attractive. In December 2000, David Rockefeller and his partners agreed to sell Rockefeller Center to another group of investors, led by Jerry Speyer, for $1.85 billion, thus ending the Rockefeller family's ownership of Rockefeller Center.

Occasionally I write a short story. This is one of them.
He Came At Her With An Axe
Michigan, 1989
He came at her with an axe, so she shot him dead.
That was an hour ago. Now she sat on the kitchen floor, as far away from his body as she could position herself, and watched his corpse and wondered what to do next. The panic had subsided, the trembling had ceased. Now she was becoming methodical.
The gun had immediately been dropped in the empty sink. It had been the first time she had fired the damn thing. It had been loud – so damn loud – but there hadn't been as much blood as she's thought. Lot of spray on the walls, yes, but nothing that couldn't be wiped away. She'd clean soon, although she now realised that she should have done it straight away because blood was tough to shift when it dried. 'Coca-Cola works', Mom had told her once, but she didn't drink Coke. It tasted like robot piss.
She'd been quick to mop up what had pooled around his body. Fistfuls of kitchen paper towels, thick and glistening with red, were clumped together in a bucket by his body. A blood-stained pair of Marigolds hung over the tap. He'd stopped leaking now. She'd have to bleach the floor later and she hated the smell of bleach.
Could she go to the police? Would they believe her? Perhaps. Most of it would be truth. It had been self-defence. It had. She had invited him round. He'd had the axe hidden in the coat folded over his arm, and the bastard had only revealed it when the latch had clicked behind him and he was in the living room and being offered a drink. All that was true. Yes. Yeah she could tell them that. The living room would corroborate that. Now that the door had been hacked off its hinges she could see straight through to the splintered coffee table, and the stuffing and springs popping out of the couch. He'd swung wildly to scare her at first, reciting the Lord's Prayer as he smashed into the china hutch and the TV and the stereo. Fucking weirdo. The Lord's Prayer? She could tell the cops that too. Religious nutjob. She'd emphasise nutjob – 'Nut. Job' - and then be sure to point to the crucifix tangled round his neck. The first time she'd seen it was when she'd been clearing him up.
The gun. No. The gun. She couldn't account for the gun. They would charge her for possession and she'd be taken in. There'd be photos and statements and CCTV. No, she couldn't do that. She couldn't go to prison. She'd only bought the damn thing for this kind of home invasion shit that Patsy had told her about. She never thought she'd have to use it. Why would Patsy have one? No one would invade fucking Patsy and her cats. Now she could see the shell casing lying just under the refrigerator. Oh thanks, Patsy.
No, she couldn't go the cops. There was a bucket of his soaked-up blood lying next to him and that wouldn't look good. She'd have to move him.
He was a tall guy and he looked heavy, and he would leak while she dragged him. More bleach. Where could she put him? The spare room? No. But...the chest freezer in the basement was big enough for him. She might have to snap some parts of him, but yeah...yeah he would fit. She had a good hammer. He'd break up easy. She'd bag all the food and put it in the garbage and then she'd wrap him in trash bags and drag him downstairs and break him up. She'd throw the gun under him too. She wished she'd never listened to Patsy. Fucking Patsy.
Jeez, but he looked heavy. She didn't know why she'd said yes to him in the first place. She wouldn't want that lurching up and down on her. But he'd been so charming, with his 'watching you for months, been dying to introduce myself' shit. Bastard. She should've read the signs. Mom had taught her how to spot the predators, but this flash prick with his coffee and his beard and his mountaineering stories and his hidden crucifix...he'd slipped under her sights. Well, fuck him and his 'art in Heaven' and his fucking carabiners. His axe was still under his hand. It looked like the kind of thing you stabbed at mountains. She'd use that to fit him in the freezer, better than a hammer, and then toss it in with him. Mountain fucker.
Now here was a list of things to do and she was happy. She realised how hungry she was. The dinner she had made for the two of them had burned and congealed in its pan on the stove. It smelled terrible and it still didn't cover up the smell of the blood. Hunger pulled at her stomach. Hunger like she had resisted for years now. She had been so good for so many years, but now that rich metallic stink was in her nostrils and she could feel her heart beating faster and faster...
She crawled forward and pulled the bucket of blood and kitchen paper close. She sat back and pushed her hand in – it all still felt so surprisingly soft and warm - and pulled out a hunk. It glistened in the kitchen lights. She held it there in her hands, feeling the wet and weight of it. Then slowly, gently, she pushed her lips against it and began to suck out the red. And when that wasn't enough she stuffed the kitchen towels in her mouth and ate them, blood and paper running down her throat as a pink mash. The endorphin rush hit her and she felt her fangs break through. Saliva dribbled down her chin. Her upper lip curved over her sharp new teeth in pleasure. She'd missed this. Oh sweet relief! She had been so good for so long and she had missed this. Fuck, it tasted good. It had been years and it tasted so fucking good. Her hands plunged into the bucket.


text: I'm trying to edit a film my friend and I put together, I've done it hundreds of times before. My camera is a Canon Vixia HF200, when I import my clips through iMovie every once in a while it'll tell me that some of the clips didn't go through due to error. But since today no clips are uploading, it only says error uploading so and so number of clips out of so and so number of clips were not uploaded. I need to upload through iMovie so that I can transfer my clips to Final Cut Pro, which is what I use to edit. Can anyone please help me out?
