Roastinghouse Records (2012)
When you lose 60% of your lineup in the interim between studio recordings, one can only hope that the creative firepower and will to survive comes through with the veteran members. In Cloudscape, those duties fall on vocalist Mike Andersson and guitarist Patrik Svard. It's not like Mike's been idling his time away- he's a member of Fullforce who released their debut album "One" in 2011-and Cloudscape continues to focus on their own take of melodic progressivemetal with this fourth album "New Era".
The new members include guitarist Stefan Rosqvist, bassist Hakan Nyander and drummer Fredrik Joakimsson- and this infusion of band changeover seems to have taken the group into more straightforward territory- harkening back to influences from Evergrey and Pagan's Mind- on songs like "Silver Ending" and "Seen It AllBefore". The keyboard use sets up the arrangement atmosphere on a sparse/minimalistic basis, as the band create sonic pictures that set up the lyrics. The 8:39 "Voyager 9" for instance contains outer world guitar effects that swirl in and out of Mike Andersson's lower range verse delivery- even taking slight affinity from "Round And Round"/Ratt for the guitar parts around 0:44-1:19 passage. The tribe vocal chanting also gives "Before Your Eyes" more of a mystical feel- something that I believe differentiates Cloudscape from their contemporaries in the progressive metal world.
The best progressive acts in my mind balance their own stylistic template with the ability to shift course from album to album. The changes do not have to be large- but they need to keep the listeners on their toes so that each record remains distinct. "New Era" contains all that I desire from Cloudscape, and the fresh musicianship as a result keeps the band on a more melodic journey. This fourth effort seems to balance their heaviness represented on "Global Drama" with their hook-laden elements and songwriting strength from "Crimson Skies"-which means another winner in my book.

According to several industry sources the average value of bank owned, REO Properties, has actually increased in the last years while the value of non-bank owned real estate has dropped on average! There are several reasons in the realm of conventional wisdom as to why this is happening; the most common reason given is that REO properties are being bought up by investment groups and turned into rentals thus driving up the price of REO's on average. While this certainly is a factor there are other factors that are probably more important to the change in real estate values that I see happening as a "boots on the ground REALTOR".
Here's how I see it. The initial wave of foreclosures was for the most part badly maintained and marginal properties: no real surprise that the most marginal home owners were the least able to maintain and upgrade their homes and least able to hang on through tough, tougher and tougher economic times. These homes languished off the market as so called "shadow inventory" for months and in many cases years due to a hostile regulatory and legal environment in which mortgage holders found themselves, thus slowing up the process of foreclosure, resale and return of these residential assets to productive use. No news there really. What the facts recently made public noted about rising REO prices and declining price on non-bank owned real estate indicates is not that we are "moving toward the middle" but in-fact indicate that we are continuing to crater the housing market in slow motion.
This pattern of rising REO value reflects exactly what many experienced REO REALTORS have noted over the last six to nine months: we are getting better quality inventory. The better quality inventory is the result of the economic damage moving up the food chain from the economic bottom into the middle and above. The middle class buyer that bought his house at a fair market price in 2009 is likely to find that when he goes to sell his home today it's worth the same or a little less and that any improvements he made have added little or no value. So, if they can't hang on and they can't sell they let it go. Thus leading to a better class REO property and putting further and continuing pressure on the middle of the market.
What does it all mean? It means that there is no foreseeable improvement coming for non-REO properties and that REO properties will continue to dominate the residential real estate market. Warren Buffet is right: single family homes are likely to continue to be an excellent investment for those who can"buy and hold" but only for those who can buy and hold either as owner occupants or as investors looking at increasingly higher and higher rents over the foreseeable future.

Compared to the original if you saw it and taking the CGI out; How do you compare the story, better or worse ?Originally Posted by Paniolo
I give it a B-
I never read the book or remember watching it on TV so I can say I'm not bias one way or the other really. To me I didn't feel the urgency or feel the situation was that dire. It was too simple for me and I think the acting could have been better. I think if the scenes were longer I would enjoy it but to me everything seemed cut together instead of transitioning. It was like someone made a movie based on the cliff notes of the cliff notes of the book instead of the actual book. Still enjoyable I guess.
Brokeback Mountain: C
Overall not too bad of a movie but it's REALLY slow at times. Great acting and I thought it set the right tone. Not focused too much on the gay physical scenes, just enough to make it intense. But I couldn't get past how slow the movie moved at times. I definitely wouldn't pay to see it but I would rent it on DVD.
From your description, it sounds like a "chick flick" !Originally Posted by sixpac shakur

I'm always hesitant to do so, because everyone has their own 'taste' in movies. But just because you asked Dogop, I'll venture to say that probably almost anyone might find this entertaining at some level. It's also got a Family/Holiday theme, so it's a good one to see at this time of year. And it's not a loooong movie, like so many of the ones out right now
Cool...I'm hoping to see it this weekend, and it sounds like it'll be worthwhile.Originally Posted by Paniolo

Just watched the 40 year old Virgin. This movie is being added to one of my favorites. I watched it atleast three times since I picked it up
"To search for the old is to understand the new." -Gichin Funakoshi-
This is the story of a little Japanese girl sold by family to a Geisha house (essentially an upper class entertainment house.) Due to the fact that she is constantly at odds with being ripped from her sister's arms, and the fact that a household prima donna Geisha feels threatened by her, she becomes more of a liability than the household feels they can recoup by investing in her Geisha future so they keep her as a slave. Eventually another Geisha house decides to buy her and her life is transformed as she becomes a top Geisha girl and learns how to deal with the prima donna who continues to try to undermine her career while she searches for her "sugar daddy" to give her a comfortable life.
The story was rather slow-moving at first, presumably trying to teach you about the culture. It never really picks up much steam but has bits and pieces of interesting story, especially the girl's interesting wit.
I feel that much of the story was left in the book (which I never read) and therefore left for a lot of confusion about what was happening at any given time. Also, the heavy Japanese accents often made it difficult to understand the dialog.
I was hoping for a bit more. I give it a C+: worthy of renting on a lazy rainy Saturday.

Get the book, Dogo. It's an excellent read!
It may very well be, but the movie should not depend on the book to be good. Apparently Hitchhikers was like this. I read the book and really related to the movie but others told me they were totally lost. Oh well.Originally Posted by sixpac shakur
Jack was there throwing out VIP Code Monkeys. Special thanks to the girl in front of me who let me have the one that landed on her shoulder. I love my Monkey, will play with with my Monkey and will display my Monkey proudly in public. (And if that girl wants a special get-together with my Monkey, please let me know.)

I will just give my status of the movies...since all of you have written such good reviews on all the movies.... A friend of mine has bought all the tapes of King Kong and very happy with them all off of Amazon...
I rated this movie a B+
I really enjoyed this family movie...and some places could be tear jerking.
I rated this movie a A+
If you have read the book, this movie has alot of meaning....both were good...
I rated this movie as a B+
Hope everyone enjoyed their movies of the week...more to come for next week....get your tickets....
Inside me lives a skinny woman crying to get out. But I can usually shut her up with cookies. (Chocolate Chips will do)
MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA = B+ = Beautiful music/soundtrack, cinematography, & good portrayal of this time period in Japan's culture/customs/lifestyle.
Starting Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Coster, Shirley McLaine
The story of a confused girl originally from Pasadena who just got engaged to her lawyer boyfriend in New York and she doesn't know why she said yes (but doesn't necessarily want to change her mind.)
After flying in for her sister's wedding, she learns that her mother (who passed away when she was 9) and grandma may have been the women that inspired the story "The Graduate." When she also learns that she was born 8 months and 1 week after her parent were married, she goes out to discover whether the other guy is her dad.
The story was rather interesting, with just the right amount of mystery and anticipation. The characters were interesting, not overwhelming, and not too low key but maybe not quite interesting enough. It wasn't really a chick flick but more of a story of discovery.
It wasn't great, but I rather enjoyed it overall. I'll give it a strong B.

Shirley McLaine 'steals' this movie away from the others
Last edited by Paniolo; 12-20-2005 at 10:48 AM.
Chronicles of Narnia: B- (Really not as good as it should have been, but see it on the big screen anyway. Bring your kids.)
Memoirs of a Geisha: A+ (So much better than I hoped! We are going back to see it again at full price at least once and will end up buying the DVD!)
This was a typical "inspirational" film like those from the 80s.
The Baker family of 12 is starting to drift its separate ways so dad decides to have one last get-together at the lake where they had so many memories years ago. While there, dad gets very competetive with an old rival and they decide to get their families to compete in the annual lake decathlon...but dad Baker's family decides to bail on him...you can almost guess what happens, but there are some twists.
Overall, this is a good family film, with a decent (albeit someone forced) storyline and some decent acting. However, it seems like the director just had to make sure that every person had a storyline and in doing so created a scattering of mostly unrelated skits. Still good for the family but overall I'd give it a C+.

Went to see King Kong today, and I quite liked it. The movie takes a bit to really get going (about 45 minutes or so), but once it does, it takes you for a ride (basically once they get on the island). The ending was a bit drawn out too (but at least they kept the most famous line at the end).
B+ in my books (mostly due to length).
I agree 100% with Paniolo's review of Fun With Dick & Jane. B- to B is what I walked away thinking. It was funny in parts and worth seeing, but I expected more. Probably a good matinee.
I also saw the last 1.75 hours of The Family Stone. I'm sure I missed a lot of important back story, but I think I got the gist of it. It was kinda depressing with one hilarious scene in the kitchen near the end. I won't rate it cause I only saw 3/4 of it.
Let Your Freak Flag Fly, Real Real High!
Anyone seen brokenback mountain? Gues its up for lots of awards. I give it an A-. Actually great movie, and good story, I enjoyed it.
Also so Dick and Jane. Kinda of Lame, not the best movie, i give it a C.
Family stone i give a B+, some sad and funny scenes.
Chronicles of Narnia: A+ all the way! They stayed VERY true to the book and did a magnificent job with the whole thing!
I saw a lot of similarities to Lord of the Rings. This surprised me. For instance, Susan's horn is just like Baromir's (sic). Tolkein & C.S. Lewis were friends you know...
And there were the Christian allegories that I have known about for a long time. A Must See!
Let Your Freak Flag Fly, Real Real High!
Finally got to see this.
It was a very realistic-seeming movie about a guy with a very liberal famil in MA who brings back (for Christmas) a very proper girl that he wants to ask to marry him. The family sees her as not the right girl for him and goes about sabotaging the relationship in a fun-sorta way, and she gets upset rather than realizing that they're teasing her.
The acting and scenery were very good, but I kept expecting a lot of the scenes to bring much more humor than they did. Some of the endings were predictable, but that didn't seem to make it better or worse.
Overall, I'd say that this would make a great Hallmark Channel movie, but I came away feeling like something was missing. B-

"King Kong" I'll venture out to say A-Originally Posted by GuruX
My Reasoning:
Great action/adventure
Awesome special effects (Andy Serkis of Golem fame plays Kong here)
Peter Jackson fans got another epic storytelling saga true to his style
Great storytelling throughout
Great character development, casting, & portrayals-Jack Black is perfect, "The Ring" actress was superb, and the audience can empathize & have compassion for Kong, the supporting actors were good too (diversity w/a strong African-American role, a bit part for the China man, the Euro-captain, etc.)
Got your $$$ worth w/a full three hours
If you're a Lord of the Rings fan, you'll like this
However, what really "spoiled" the movie was the one scene. You all know what I'm talking about (for those of you who saw it already)! Ugh! Sooo many laughs & guffaws from the audience. Yeah, I was snorting to myself, but the others didn't have to spoil the scene for everyone else, puh-lease!
Overall, ya gotta see it on the BIG SCREEN. Not the same watching it on the tube. Not an Academy Award winner, but what do you expect from a re-make?
Grandma's boy-
FUnny movie, better then I thought it was be. The plot could have been alittle better, but some very funny scenes. I give this movie a B.

MARQUETTE, Mich. (AP) — The U.S. Coast Guard has rescued a cold-water surfer from Lake Superior near the Presque Isle breakwall in Marquette.
Rescue personnel found the man about 400 yards off the breakwall Wednesday. Several large waves had swept him and his surfboard over the wall and into Presque Isle Harbor, where the water temperature was 33 degrees.
The surfer began paddling to shore, but was exhausted and still 150 yards away when Coast Guard personnel from the Marquette station entered the water and used a rope to pull him to safety. The man collapsed before reaching shore.
He was taken to a local hospital.
In a news release, the Coast Guard warned cold-water sports enthusiasts to take precautions, including wearing the proper clothing and never going alone.

Shelter developer diary features Might and Delight discussing the game, badgers
Might and Delight have released a developer diary for Shelter, the lovely looking game starring a badger family. In the video below, creative director Johannes Wadin and lead designer Andreas Wangler discuss the PC and Mac title. Like Pid before it, the score for Shelter will be provided by Retro Family. It's in late summer this year and you can support it through Steam Greenlight here.
Wed, May 22, 2013 | 18:46 BST
Shelter looks to be coming along quite nicely if new screens and trailer are any indication

Pid patched to add easy mode
Beautiful indie platformer Pid has been updated with the option to turn the difficulty down. The game's website claims the new easy mode isn't just a little more forgiving – it boasts redesigned levels as well as shorter and simpler boss encounters. Normal difficulty has also been tweaked to remove certain difficulty spikes, and you can change difficulty on the fly. The patch has already rolled out on PC and Mac and is "hopefully" coming to consoles, too.
Thanks, RipTen.

Day 5: Celebrate Love Heroes!
Today is Day 5 of the Thirty Days of Love. Today's action is to honor Courageous Love in your community. Click here for more resources, family actions, and more! Click here to sign up for the daily Thirty Days of Love emails.
On Sunday, we got to help kick off the second annual Thirty Days of Love by awarding Courageous Love Awards to leaders at First Unitarian Church of Baltimore. "Honor Legacy" is the theme for this first week of the campaign, and it is an apt touchstone for our historic congregation. When Rev. William Ellery Channing delivered "the Baltimore sermon" from our pulpit in 1819, he shook religion at its core and defined an American Unitarianism that was serious, rational, and progressive.
It was a joy to celebrate the stories of our congregational leaders. As a group, they worked to pass marriage equality—by popular vote!—this past November in Maryland, and have also advocated for the rights of LGBTQ people for decades. Award recipients Sally Wall and Pat Montley were our public spokespersons, receiving messaging training, addressing the media, and organizing other congregations to mobilize for equality. Scott MacLeod was our principal cheerleader in the congregation, urging our people to volunteer at phone banks and door-to-door canvassing, and leading a square dance fundraiser.
Fighting for human rights was nothing new for award recipient Charles Blackburn. In 1961, he was a Freedom Rider in the south, challenging local segregation laws by riding interstate buses. In 2004, Charles and his partner were one of nine couples in Deane & Polyak v. Conoway, the suit for equal marriage rights in Maryland. That suit was lost in 2007. Our congregation's response? We hung a banner proclaiming "Civil Marriage is a Civil Right" as a testament to our commitment to equal rights for all. This past Sunday, acknowledging that marriage equality could not have been won without our UU Legislative Ministry of Maryland, we were able to take the banner down with pride.
Any organization or individual can give Courageous Love Awards to those who exhibit "courageous love." This is an opportunity to recognize the amazing change-makers in your community and inspire future social justice work. Click here for more info on Courageous Love Awards.
Together, let's continue to put our faith into action, and stand on the side of love!
Rev. David Carl Olson
First Unitarian Church of Baltimore, Maryland
PS: The Standing on the Side of Love campaign hopes your congregation is participating in Share the Love Sunday! The SSL website has some helpful resources for planning your service, taking a collection to support the Unitarian Universalist Association, and discussing what it means for your congregation to rejoice in community and stand on the side of love. Thanks for your generosity on February 17!

Purchased these being budget minded. Nice looking gloves that fit well, but after maybe three rides the stitching on the thumbs started coming undone. Gloves are still wearable, however this doesn't leave me too confident on any kind of crash protection.

Bought this hat for my son. Must admit, got a little jealous after it arrived and hoped that he would not want it. Only thing I had going for me was he rarely will wear a white hat but I just could not put the nail in the coffin. Pointed out the patterns will hide the small smudges plus the hat is just cool. He put it on and it was all over. Seriously nice hat in all aspects.

I purchased a large and it fits great. I love the ratchet connection very fast and easy. only issue is the way Speed and Strength advertises their product to make you believe the shield is tinted. That is not the case it comes clear. Otherwise its a great helmet i would recommend to anyone.

RICHMOND, Calif- For two little girls in the Bay Area, the debate on imigration reform is anything but political. 9-year-old Nikte and 6-year-old Ixchel Gomez seem to live a normal life, but the only way they can see there father is if they go to Mexico.
Three years ago before their mother died of cancer, these U.S. born citizens said goodbye to their father, after Manuel Gomez was arrested for shoplifting a t-shirt.
The family lawyer, Rafael Godoy, said police called immigration on him. "Mr. Gomez had been deported twice in the early 2000's and finally voluntarily removed himself from the United States in 2010," said Godoy. After leaving the states, Manuel was banned from entering the country for at least ten years. "I mean it is a consequence of breaking the law and in another sense it's a person who was seeking the american dream, or seeking a dream to improve himself. Unfortunately he came to the United States without the proper paperwork."
Nikte and Ixchel 's mother, Leneya, tried to get them through an undoubtedly scary and upsetting time in their lives, something most children never have to experience.
"They were the light of her life. She adored them. She was very very devoted to them," said Dana, the girls' legal guardian. When their father was deported, Nikte and Ixchel got a small dose of life's difficulties. Then their story took a turn for the worse. "I sometimes want to wish that no one died," said 6-year-old Ixchel.
Leneya died from brain cancer a day after Christmas in 2012 and the girls were out of the state when their mother died.
Before she died, Leneya made sure to grant Dana legal custody of her girls and not Manuel. At that point 2 years had passed since he had left the country and the girls mental and emotional state of mind was at its worst. "They go to therapy once a week. They each go. They each have their own therapist," said Dana.
It's been less than a year now, since the girls effectively became orphans, when they lost their mother. One of the most difficult times for them is when they're getting ready to go to bed. Dana said each and every night she has to stay with them until they fall asleep. "Nikte cried every single day I took her to school. For 3 1/2 months she cried every single day because she has huge abandonment issues now. Her dad left and her mom passed away. So in her little 9 year old psyche, every adult she's ever trusted has abandoned her, has left her," said Dana.
As a last resort, Manuel requested the government grant him humanitarian parole. "There's this one section that allows discretion. It has to be a compelling emergency and the government is concerned with people coming into the United States with this to stay here," said Godoy. However, Manuel's prior run - ins with immigration didn't help his case.
"It's extremely difficult for the immigration services to grant humanitarian parole based on the fact that he has already violated the laws. I can only imagine he's seen as someone who would probably not, in their eyes, comply with the requirements of leaving the country when his authorization was up," said Godoy. Only 25 percent of the 1,200 parole cases filed, are granted every year.
"We had support from the mother's doctors, the mother, the children's therapist, the children's teachers, friends and family. But ultimately the humanitarian parole was denied," said Godoy.
Manuel is still working with the lawyer to show he has strong ties in Mexico and wouldn't exceed his alloted time but his chances of coming back are very slim.
The Gomez girls are not the only ones who became innocent bystanders of the consquences of being in the country illegally. According to Homeland Security, between January and June of 2011, Homeland Security deported more than 46,000 illegal immigrants who claim to have at least one U.S. born child.
"What started as a dream to improve his life and provide for his daughters and to have a good life with his family is now a little bit of a nightmare," said Godoy.
But there is one solution to the nightmare, the girls could move to Mexico and live with Manuel. "I want to live with my daddy but I don't want to live in Mexico" said Nikte.
"We all think that they're better served here, in terms of resources and availability of goods and services. Putting them in the Mexican educational system would not be such a good idea. The move itself, that would be traumatic. Moving is a huge stresser for any human. The culture shock and the language change, climate change all those things, they don't need that on top of everything else that they deal with on a daily basis," said Dana.
Godoy says it goes beyond a quick fix and it is more about real change moving forward. "We have a situation where these girls are basically left hanging in the wind and I think we should at least, as a policy, look to see whether or not these U.S. citizens are eligible from some relief from the rules."
We tracked down Central Coast Congressman Sam Farr and told him about the Gomez girls. He said there may be no policy changes that would help reunite this family and that humanitarian parole is the last measure and the government denied him. "I'm shocked by my colleagues in congress who get up an tout that we have to have family reunification and family value, and then do so little to try to make it work," said Farr
For now Nikte and Ixchel will have to settle and prepare for for a life of phone and Skype contact with their dad.

What is the paint code for the gray or silver that is used on my 52 Hornet rocker panels? Thanks! Bill
58 pontiac INCA SILVER is very close match to the original ARGENT on the rockers. You can use some "flatner" if you think it a little too glossy.
Hi Bill,
I have a set of color chips for 52 and there are two grays listed:
202-57127 Jupiter Gray Metalic : Combination number 95N : DUCO Stock Number 1350
246-70397 French Gray : Combination number 72, 101 (U), 106 (U), 107 (L), 108 (L), 109 (L), 110(L) : DUCO Stock Number 668
Jairo. -
You can usually find a "argent silver" in a given product line.
As far as I know, there was never a "paint code" for the argent color of the rocker panels. Hudson carried Argent as a service item, but you ordered it by the Hudson part number. As Park W mentions, most auto paint lines have an "Argent" color that will be o so close!Jerry

HET Registrar of all Hudson Jets -
Don't know if they still have it, but Ford dealers used to carry 16oz. spray cans of argent in their parts departments.
Thanks everyone for your help! I will go to my auto paint store and ask the about the "argent". This forum is great!! Bill
I never saw a paint code for the rocker silver paint either. But it was called Argent. The colors you mentioned are a flat type paint without metallic flake. By the way, look at the periodic table; Ag is the chemical symbol for silver, or Argentum, atomic number 47.
Probably not a paint code just because it was the same on every car,
RogerRetired Tech.

It had really intense pigmentation, and the texture was soft and smooth. There are quite a few near-identical dupes for this–see comparison swatches.

Curious to see what people like.
Top 3
Food of the Gods - Terence Mckenna And the Ass saw the Angel - Nick Cave American Psycho - Bret Easton Ellis
All 3 to me easily have the best re read factor..
yah…we dont read books unfortunately. we really only listen to and write music
Radioactive Sandwich Homepage SoundCloud Facebook
I'm a big nerd, so most of my reading is very technical in nature…lately it's been a lot of electrical and mechanical engineering and stuff related to audio component design. The last few good non-technical books I have read are Intelligence in Nature by Jeremy Narby and True Hallucinations by Terence McKenna.
The last fiction books I really liked were Pat Conroy's The Lords of Discipline and The Great Santini. They are nothing mind-blowing, but just very engaging stories told masterfully and humorously. But it's been 6 or 7 years since I read them, if that tells you anything about me and fiction.
Food of the Gods is a good book. I like Agatha Christie. Nothing wrong with a good whodunnit. To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my all time favorites.
I have all sorts of books ranging from Gene Worship, Discovering Soul Potential to Proof of the Illuminati and David Icke books.
If anyone has a copy of Activating Evolution or knows someone who has, and doesn't mind to part with it please let me know
ॐDiMuTechॐ DiMuTech Music - Myspace Music - DiMuTech Photography Faith is something someone wants you to have, when they are trying to make you believe something unbelieveable. Knowledge gives us answers. Understanding them gives us wisdom
I read like 4-5 real books in my life.

[quote author="Ray"]I read like 4-5 real books in my life.
I have a copy of the Agatha Christie one but with a different title. It's an early edition paperback worn with age though. John Grisham wrote the client. I have read this one too. IT was a big favorite when I was in 2nd year at boarding school and got handed around. It scared the sh*t out of us.
And then there were none used to be called "10 little indian/nigger boys" or something like that, in the past, if I remember correctly.
The English version published 1939 was called Ten Little Niggers and the American copy was called And then there were none. However in the 60's they changed the title to Ten Little Indians.
I really liked it anyway. Certainly was a mindboggler.
P.S Moving to off topic forum as it's not general chat about Twisted related music or stuff
Books? We have computers,movies, and other visual ways of telling stories. I'm sorry but books are just outdated and most people were not raised to read books. I know books have a certain unique way of telling a story but like I said it just seems like such an out dated way of giving and passing information and knowledge.
Twisted > ALL
Bikes are outdated compared to the car but people still use them. For us who were born pre 1980's some of us still like to indulge in a good book and still obtain information via computers etc. I still see a lot of people reading books say when I'm on a train or bus. A lot of people I know still read books. So outdated as they may be people still read even if the new generations aren't being raised to read books. I'm going to raise my kids to read them in any case.
Peter F. Hamilton - The Reality Dysfunction Tim O
My arms are verrrrry looooong
Robert Louis Stevenson - Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde good choice and good author
I don't know the others you listed dr papa
Georges Marvelous Medicne - Roald Dahl
Best. Book. Ever.
Roald Dahl. Reminds me I was on holiday in Portugal recently and I saw a copy of James and the Giant Peach. I bought it and read it again as it was 25 years ago I had read it last. I'm now going to keep hold of this one for my maybe future kids. I haven't read Georges Marvelous Medicine though. Don't think I have any way. I remember reading BFG by him. Now I am remembering kids books. I used to love the famous five. Preferred them to the secret seven which I also read.
I'm half way reading "1984" and I love it.
The happy chaos out of which enlightenment might come.

Congratulations on having the tenacity to post for 1,900+ consecutive days! Care to become buddies?? Warren :o))
Its me again. Make sure there is a dash between pure and gas. I did not the first time and got a different web site. Dale
Hi, I saw your comment that ethanol free gas is hard to find. Go to this web site for a list of stations in the United States and Canada. WWW.PURE-GAS.ORG I hope this helps. Unfortunately there are not many close to me but maybe there may be one close to you. Dale Snyder
Congratulations on having the stamina to post for 1,800 consecutive days. Keep up the Great Work. Want to become buddies?? Warren {:-)
Hi, good comment on the news article about Self-driving cars today. I say: We don't need self-driving vehicles. We need to be pursuing increased use of abundant, super clean, American natural gas in the form of CNG as our primary alternative to all oil based fuels. Make North America energy independent and save our oil to make plastics, paint, pesticides, fertilizers and all other chemicals that can't be grown or mined. Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
Hi, BIG congratulations on having the dedication to post for 1,700 consecutive days. WOW!! Keep up the great work and Good Luck in the future! Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
I sent you a buddy request, but you never showed on my buddy request.. Did you get my invitation? I have had problems with messages. Thanks
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family! Have a nice week! Thanks! Ron
Happy Birthday, in a week.Lets be buddies

On the evening of February 26, Trayvon Martin—a 17-year-old African American-- was shot, and killed near his home by George Zimmerman, a "self-appointed" neighbourhood watch captain in Sanford, Florida. For the full story, read here.
According to numerous news reports, Martin, a Miami native, was visiting his father in Sanford and watching the NBA All-Star game at a house in a gated Sanford community. At halftime, Martin walked out to the nearby 7-Eleven to get some Skittles and Arizona Iced Tea. On his way back home, Zimmerman, who was patrolling the neighbourhood, saw him and called 911 to report "a real suspicious guy." Even though the police warned Zimmerman not to confront Martin, the former chose to do so anyway. What happened next is anyone's guess, but the evening ended with Martin dead and Zimmerman claiming he shot him in self-defense.
Self-defense… Because everyone knows there's nothing more lethal than a pack of Skittles and a bottle of iced tea.
Can someone just call a spade a spade? Zimmerman targeted Martin because, according to his racist little mindset, he looked out of place. What was a black kid (wearing a hoodie no less!) doing walking at night in a gated community? He can't seriously BELONG here, right? He MUST be up to no good. Let me, frustrated cop-wannabe, possessor of an easily-obtainable armed weapon (thank you NRA) and purveyor of all that is good and decent in the U.S. stand my ground and take care of the menace. Let ME be his judge, jury and executioner, all with one swift bullet. Shoot now, ask questions later. It's the American way…
To add insult to the debacle of a police investigation that followed, and the fact that Zimmerman is still walking the streets free, despite having killed a man, journalist and radio host Geraldo Rivera made the outlandish comment that "His hoodie killed Trayvon Martin as surely as George Zimmerman did." I somewhat understand what he was trying to say, but choosing to put the blame on the victim's attire, instead of the obvious racism and vigilantism that still permeates American society, is like choosing to blame a woman's short skirt for her getting raped. Blame the perpetrator, not the victim.
Ever since the story started making international headlines, I haven't been able to get the image of young Martin out of my head. An avid gym-goer, every time I train, I see young kids walking around with hoodies pulled over their heads. Most of them are teenagers, strutting around with that made-up bravado that boys that age have; a kind of attempt at Manny Pacquiao-inspired street cred, despite the gangly swagger and the pimply faces. Some of them are whiter than white. And some of them are black. It breaks my heart to think that the ones with the darker skin colour run a higher risk of being perceived as "suspicious" for no other reason than their skin.
Zimmerman targeted Martin because, according to his racist little mindset, he looked out of place. What was a black kid (wearing a hoodie no less!) doing walking at night in a gated community?
I look at the kids in hoodies and think of the black teacher who was stopped by Westmount Public Security years ago, while she was walking down the street, because someone reported "suspicious" activity. I think of Joel Debellefeuille, the black man driving a car that appeared too expensive for the SQ, possessing a name that was too Quebecois-sounding (whatever that means…) and was stopped (in front of his family) because of "suspicious" activity. I think of the countless incidents I've heard my black friends recount; incidents that I, a white woman, have not, and will never experience.
The Martin case is, without a doubt, about so much more than racism. It has brought to task, what appears to be an incompetent or complicit police force, questionable gun laws and "stand your ground" self-defense legislation that potentially does more harm than good. But, at its essence, it's about a young black man, armed with nothing more than a hoodie and a bag of Skittles, getting gunned down because he was in – what someone perceived-- a place he didn't belong. Because of his skin. That's racial profiling. And it's alive and well.
President Obama moved me to tears when he declared: "If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon," but it shouldn't matter who Trayvon looked like. He was already somebody's son.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Morning we've -- all kinds of political and economic reasons for the increasing gun sales but all -- you perhaps missing the point.
To people just enjoy firing guns.
They enjoy these days contrary to what you might think up to two generations a propaganda -- -- -- Joining us now is weighing up Piaf CEO all the the NRA Wayne good to have you -- Thanks for having Stuart what do you make of this up move we've heard two main reasons why we've got a surge in gun sales people concerned about -- safety and the what about the Second Amendment Rights in -- second Obama took.
That is a third reason.
What do you think guns a phone so we bottom.
No doubt about it I mean the fact is that this shooting sports -- as an American is playing catch I mean before there was baseball before there was football.
The shooting sports have always been part of an American good time I mean thirty -- forty million Americans participate in the shooting sports.
That's more than tennis more than golf Morgan skiing and we lot more people out there enjoying these sports are safe.
They've they've teach responsibility -- this is just -- I must wait you know that that I'm I'm the opposite propaganda.
But the faction of the times what you see in the popular media is for two generations -- been you know.
Guns of that -- -- from -- don't own them fine and is not -- find -- noisy loud dangerous don't do it and yet suddenly.
People seem to be rediscovering.
And a vote I have to interject if the sectors look I'm an englishman right I was not born up brought up in in a -- culture.
Are noticing my first have a gun store in Connecticut four years ago yes guns now yes but I'm gonna skits yes guns -- So it's a it's a surprise to me to find Americans sort of finding fun in owning guns but -- confirming it.
Well I think it shows how ought to step the so called media yet mainstream media is in this country would most Americans it's.
31 billion dollar industry in this country I -- 2.5.
Billion in federal taxes a hundred million American gun owners.
Thirty million American women now own firearms I mean it's a huge cross section of the American public.
Fifteen million people go hunting every year end.
I mean that's why the strength of the Second Amendment support in this country reflects where the American public is on this issue that well.
You know the mainstream media has on the other side do you worry about a backlash from the left and and you may be shed.
You know gun proponents not be on TV talking about it to sort of alert the rest of the media come down on them.
You know the media wants to bury it fog this issue through the 2012 election I -- I ended up -- Harvard after the 2000 election of the school of government politics.
Because the polling showed among union members.
Gun ownership runs from a low in California 47%.
While high -- hope 7080.
Person 90% in states like Tennessee -- West Virginia Missouri Pennsylvania Ohio.
And up to half of those union house that all owned a firearm.
Voted for President Bush as opposed to god -- and the main issue was the gun issue in fact they asked that that seminar.
Through the political director for the AFL CIO what's his advice to Democrats on the gun issue and he said they just need this shot up.
Now that's a reflective of where the American public stands on this issue.
Latin -- -- real fast way that you just have the NRA's convention in Saint -- I believe I am told that the big hits of the convention was the -- Smith & Wesson handgun the -- shield got a picture of it on the street I'm not asking you to endorse or otherwise -- -- by private manufacturer but I am -- right inside that this -- make a big splash at the convention.
Yet it did I mean but the but the big hit of the convention to me was 74.
Thousand American citizens that came out to celebrate this freedom I mean we had.
Why -- -- -- 74000.
People in Saint Louis feel convention center before we thousand.
-- the largest crowd we ever had at our convention and it was a great celebration is freedom it it shows you where the American public stands and they're not about to lose -- -- when -- the and all right thanks for joining us so we appreciate you being with us thank you bank.

Nature of the Area
The sandstone hills of the Barkcamp region are part of the Appalachian highlands which envelop the southeastern part of Ohio • In the sandstone bedrock can be found layers of coal which were formed by decaying swamp vegetation millions of years ago during the Pennsylvanian geologic period • Barkcamp State Park lies in the heart of the coal-mining region of Ohio
The hills and valleys of the area are clothed with a second-growth forest • Today, southeastern Ohio is one of the most extensively forested in Ohio, and only a few areas remain which suggest the magnificence of these original forests
The woodlands of Barkcamp support a variety of plant and animal life • The observant visitor may find a wealth of woodland wildflowers including wild geranium, hepatica, bloodroot and spring beauties • The woodlands explode with flowering dogwood and redbud blossoms in spring
Songbirds, squirrels, skunk, opossum, raccoon, white-tailed deer and the wild turkey take up residence in the park's varying habitats
History of the Area
This area was first inhabited by the Moundbuilders, then later by Wyandots, Delaware and Shawnee • Belmont County was one of the earliest areas settled in Ohio, and the scene of several bloody conflicts between settlers and Indians • Prior to the Treaty of Greenville of 1795, the nearby Ohio River was the accepted boundary between Indians to the north and settlers to the south of the river • Conflicts arose as land-hungry settlers began encroaching on Indian lands • The celebrated Indian fighter, Lewis Wetzel, was often through this region • Wetzel instigated many of the conflicts as Indians were the object of his mortal hate • A large boulder near the park's Antique Barn bears an inscription carved by Wetzel
The Society of Friends (Quakers) established the first church in the area.
