The Chilean novelist Roberto Bolaño's The Third Reich is, like much of his fiction, filled with Nazis, the ultimate evil
Roberto Bolaño treated his fiction as one giant tapestry, a contiguous world in which invented figures mingled with real historical figures over multiple works. After the author's fictional alter ego, Arturo Belano, the character with the greatest number of appearances may be Ernst Jünger, the real German World War I veteran and writer whose fusty Prussian conservatism, belief in a Nietzschean will to power, and occasional forays into anti-Semitism made him a hero to some post-Weimar Germans, including, at times, members of the Nazi hierarchy. Jünger appears, as a character or by reference, in Bolaño's 2666, By Night in Chile, and The Third Reich. In Nazi Literature in the Americas, Bolaño's Borgesian catalog of fictional right-wing writers, an elderly Jünger is described (in a poem, naturally) as having sex with Leni Riefenstahl.
Jünger represents a Bolaño archetype: the intellectual co-opted, by force or by request, into a right-wing establishment. Jünger never officially became a Nazi, but he was granted the rank of captain in the Wehrmacht, visited defeated France and a prisoner camp on the Russian front, and made continual intellectual accommodations when faced with the radical depravity of Nazi policies and actions. In Bolaño's By Night in Chile, Jünger, along with a Chilean diplomat, visits a starving Guatemalan painter in wartime Paris. Perhaps in a nod to Jünger's wartime myopia, Bolaño has Jünger hold forth about art in unintelligible French, while the diplomat interprets the Guatemalan's painting as being not about the fall of Paris or "the defeat of European culture bravely determined to burn itself down" but rather about "his personal defeat, the defeat of an obscure, poor Guatemalan."
The refusal to acknowledge the historical calamity surrounding these men is characteristic of Bolaño. In often febrile prose, his artists, poets, diplomats, writers, murderers, and wanderers gravitate toward the aesthetics of power. In this, Bolaño seems to find a particularly disturbing form of evil, one that attempts to transmute political violence and totalitarianism into something viscerally beautiful.
Bolaño found evil fascinating, an enduring, frightening phenomenon, and his interest coincided with the repeated use in his fiction of Nazis and Nazi symbolism, from 1996's Nazi Literature in the Americas to The Third Reich, a manuscript written in 1989, found among the author's papers, and published last month in an English translation by Natasha Wimmer. For a vagabond Latin American writer, a non-Jew who came of age when the continent's utopian leftist movements were usurped by bloody right-wing authoritarianism, the question is: Why? Or as Bolaño himself asks in Nazi Literature in the Americas, "Why are so many Nazis still alive? What makes them almost immortal?" The answer provides some insight into both Bolaño's singular talent and the limitations of his political-literary project.
Nazi fiction generally comes in three types: chronicles of persecution, chronicles of witness, and counterfactual tales founded on radical shifts in the historical narrative, like Richard Harris' Fatherland or Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Tower. For contemporary Latin American writers, whose forebears lived in countries forced to choose a side with which to align, World War II has provided material for inquiries into the nature of collaboration. Horacio Castellanos Moya's Tyrant Memory and Juan Gabriel Vásquez's The Informers are two examples of recent novels by talented writers that provided disappointingly conventional takes on wartime collaboration, books little different from a dozen European cousins except for the use of local color.
Bolaño, on the other hand, accomplished something far different. The Chilean novelist used Nazism not as the grist for historical fiction but rather as a kind of shadow text that runs throughout his work, showing how the narcissism of power has much in common with the narcissism of authorship. Bolaño was always concerned with two forms of extremity: political violence and the transcendent literary sublime. While seeing the two as inextricably linked, Janus-like, he glorified the latter. His heroes are writers, real and invented, who achieve mythic status (Octavio Paz, Cesárea Tinajero, Benno von Archimboldi) and also, perhaps even more so, the foolhardy young writers who venture into Latin America's wastelands in search of them. Arturo Belano and Ulises Lima—the peripatetic poets whose search for Tinajero, the founder of the visceral realist movement, is described in The Savage Detectives—are the quintessential Bolaño heroes: romantic, angry, wild-eyed believers in poetry as religion.
But wherever Bolaño offers visceral realists, beautiful young things striving to create the art of the future, one can also find their obverse: fascist poets, right-wing soccer thugs-turned-magazine editors, amoral priests who allow themselves to be drafted into the service of Chile's junta. Living in the shade, these writers represent the malignance of ambition as well as the morally treacherous choice that some of Bolaño's generation made, throwing their lot in with Augusto Pinochet. And yet Bolaño's fiction also indulges in visions of evil, of gruesome murders, of the victories of authoritarianism. Referring to Chile's heady years under Salvador Allende, Bolaño once wrote, "we fought for and put all our generosity into an ideal that had been dead for more than fifty years, and some of us knew it."

Nasal spray for motion sickness
Johnson Space Center in Houston and Epiomed Therapeutics Inc. of Irvine, Calif., have signed an agreement to develop and commercialize a NASA-crafted, fast-acting nasal spray to fight motion sickness.
Under the Space Act Agreement, Epiomed will formulate the drug, called intranasal scopolamine, or INSCOP.
Astronauts often experience motion sickness in space. As a result, NASA has conducted extensive research into the causes and treatments for the condition.
Scopolamine is effective and can be administered as a tablet or injected.
With a precise dosage, the NASA spray formulation has been shown to work faster and more reliably than the oral form.
The United States Navy is working on an agreement with Epiomed to test the nasal spray. NASA and Epiomed will collaborate on clinical trials related to the Federal Drug Administration requirements.
NASA is transferring sponsorship of future clinical trials and FDA approvals to Epiomed, which will supply the product for use by NASA and others.

Men's lacrosse assists 'Walk To End Alzheimer's'
The Florida Tech men's lacrosse team and coaching staff recently volunteered their time to assist with the "Walk To End Alzheimer's" event at Wickham Park in Melbourne.
The Panthers made a huge impact in the community, while also growing closer together as a team.
Entering into the second season of the program, the young Panther squad assisted in almost every aspect of the Alzheimer's event. They arrived prior to the event to help set up tents, stands and markers along the trail. During the event, players handed out flyers, collected donations, gathered signatures for petitions and even assisted with the event photographer.
One special moment, for not only the team and the coaching staff, but for those in the community who were there to watch, was when a group of the players walked the entire trail with a lady who was in a wheel chair.
The players also formed lines on both sides of the start and finish lines to cheer on the participants. It was something the players and those taking part in the event thoroughly enjoyed.
For information about a "Walk To End Alzheimer's" and the Alzheimer's Association, visit www.alz.org/cnfl/.
SPCA car show a huge success
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of North Brevard hosted its Second Annual Hot Dogs, Cool Cats and Wild Rides Car Show, which was presented by Ron Norris Ford, on Saturday, Oct. 13.
Despite two other competing car shows (one in New Smyrna, one at the Cape), participant turnout for this worthwhile cause exceeded expectations with 98 cars registered (compared to 60 at last year's event).
There were nearly a dozen trophies awarded to show cars, in addition to drawings for an iPod, a lotto tree and a 50/50 raffle.
The success of this event is a result of the community for its overwhelming support and turn-out and also to the massive network of volunteers supporting the SPCA, including students from the Florida Institute of Technology, whose Delta Upsilon chapter of the Pi Lambda Phi fraternity attends major SPCA events to provide the "muscle power" needed to make events like this work.

Hospice of St. Francis nears second decade
Hospice of St. Francis received zero deficiencies in its latest Medicare survey, marking nearly 20 years since Brevard's only independent, nonprofit hospice has received even a single deficiency from Medicare surveyors.
Medicare surveyors visited Hospice of St. Francis in mid-September. Dozens of areas are reviewed in the survey, including:
. Hospice plan of care
. Coordination of services
. Compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations related to the health and safety of patients
. Medical director responsibility
. Protection of information
. Physician services
. Nursing services
. Counseling services
In 1990, Hospice of St. Francis was certified as a provider of services to Medicare and Medicaid patients.
Hospice of St. Francis, which serves all of Brevard County, was founded in 1977 and had offices in Titusville and Melbourne.

Spring sport lacrosse
For the first time in 48 years, Cocoa Beach High School will be offering the spring sport lacrosse for both boys and girls.
Lacrosse is one of the oldest sports played in North America, often played by Native Americans to resolve conflicts.
It is now one of the fastest-growing sports at the high school level, with more than 4,000 players in Brevard County alone and is sanctioned as a championship sport in 21 states.
The sport of lacrosse is a combination of basketball, soccer and hockey. Anyone can play lacrosse - big or small. The game requires and rewards coordination and agility, not brawn.
The cost of outfitting a lacrosse team is less than outfitting a team for hockey or football, but is something our schools are unable to provide.
Due to extreme budget cuts in the public school systems, there are no funds available to pay for coaches, referees, field equipment or uniforms. It's now up to the players to provide the necessary funding on their own.
Last month several local hair stylists and barbers gave up one of their busy Saturdays to volunteer to cut hair at the Cocoa Beach Recreational Center.
With the help of many parents, students and local merchants, the "Cut-A-Thon" fundraiser was a great success!
With raffle sales, donations, $10 haircuts and tremendous community support, the lacrosse booster was able to raise $1,000!
Harris Foundation again supports Brevard students
Recently, the Harris Corporation, through the Community Foundation for Brevard, presented the Brevard Schools Foundation with a check for $110,000, which will be used to fund multiple programs during the 2012-13 school year.
The donation supports Harris' primary philanthropic platform, which is for quality education, specifically in the area of STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Math - as these disciplines are extremely important to the future of high tech companies.
Harris employees have given significant time and talent to promote STEM in grades kindergarten through 12, volunteering almost 16,000 hours with the Brevard Public Schools.
Harris is an international communications and information technology company serving government and commercial markets in more than 125 countries.
Headquartered in Melbourne, the company has approximately $5.5 billion of annual revenue and about 15,000 employees, including 6,000 engineers and scientists.
Harris is dedicated to developing best-in-class assured communications products, systems and services.
The Brevard Schools Foundation is a direct support 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that matches community resources with the needs of teachers and students. It is ranked fifth in the nation for support to schools.

Craft returns from space station
A Space Exploration Technologies Dragon spacecraft splashed down in the Pacific Ocean recently a few hundred miles west of Baja California, Mexico.
The splashdown successfully ended the first contracted cargo delivery flight contracted by NASA to re-supply the International Space Station.
The Dragon launched atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, on Oct. 7. It carried 882 pounds of cargo to the complex, including 260 pounds of crew supplies, 390 pounds of scientific research, 225 pounds of hardware and several pounds of other supplies. This included critical materials to support 166 scientific investigations, of which 63 were new.
The mission was the first of at least 12 cargo re-supply missions to the space station planned by SpaceX through 2016 under NASA's commercial re-supply services contract.

Group gets jackets for dogs
The Central Brevard Humane Society recently received a donation of 55 Thundershirts through a grant, valued at more than $2,100, from the Petfinder Foundation to use on the homeless dogs at the shelter in Cocoa.
The jackets are designed to reduce the stress and anxiety in shelter dogs, in turn, making them more adoptable and better able to find their new "forever" homes.
Thundershirt was founded in 2009 by Phil Blizzard, whose 10-year-old, 50-pound mutt, Dosi, was extremely frightened by loud noises, such as thunderstorms and fireworks. The gentle constant pressure of the Thundershirt worked to calm Dosi during those times, according to the company website, thundershirt.com.
The Petfinder Foundation saves lives through adoptions, helping shelters prepare for and recover from disaster and working to make sure animal welfare organizations are more sustainable.

The material presented in this thesis is a logical extension of and addition to previous work on network sensitivities as applied to power system analysis and planning. The continuing tendency of supplementing the existing extra-high voltage a.c. transmission systems with high-voltage d.c.(HVDC) lines has been taken into consideration, and various relevant component models have been investigated using a new hybrid network formulation based on the methedology developed by Bandler and EI-Kady. The load buses, frequently modelled as PQ-buses at which both the real and reactive injected powers are known, and the generator buses characterized by a constant voltage magnitude and constant real injected power, have been dealt with by exploiting a special complex conjugate notation. In addition, the current, voltage and/or power relationships associated with the transmission network branches have been investigated. A hybrid formulation for generalized power system component models has been developed. This novel formulation not only encompasses the work established on the basis of one-port theory, but it is also capable of manipulating multiport, nonreciprocal, a.c. as well as integrated a.c.d.c. bulk transmission networks. The attractive features of adjoint modeling have been retained, and consequently, exact sensitivity formulas associated with various control variabies have been derived, tabulated and verified. Applications of the novel sensitivity formulation to both, the HVDC link and phase-shifting transformer modeling, are presented. In the first application, a two-port model of an HVDC link connecting two a.c. networks has been used. The terminal relations of the converters have been utilized ingeniously to develop an adjoint converter model. Both firing angle and commutation reactance have been considered as the control variables of interest, and their respective sensitivity formulas have been numerically verified on a test power system. In the second application, a cascaded phase-shifting transformer model comprising an ideal transformer in series with a transformer equivalent impedance has been considered. Exact sensitivity formulas for the control variables representing transformer turns ratio magnitude, phase angle, equivalent resistance and reactance have been derived elegantly and compactly.
The theoretical results achieved have been extensively verified using a 2-bus and a 6-bus sample power systems. The functions encountered in steady-state security assessment have been considered, and investigated in applications to two practical IEEE (30-bus and 118-bus) test systems.

Canton Racing Accusumps are oil reservoirs that connect to the engine's oiling system. They are designed to collect pressurized oil from your engine and store it so that it may be discharged when oil pressure is low. Canton Racing Accusump oil accumulators deliver oil before starting to eliminate dry start scuffing (pre-oiling). They also discharge oil during low oil pressure surges to protect against engine damage during demanding racing conditions.

Hundreds turned out at Forest Park on Sunday morning to raise awareness about epilepsy.
The park was the site of the Epilepsy Foundation of New England's inaugural walk in Western Massachusetts.
The group, which serves Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine and New Hampshire, has spent the past 30 years providing services for people with the disorder and their families.
Those families said an event like Sunday's helps shed light on their loved ones' condition.
"It is wonderful," said Kevin Crowell, who has epilepsy. "We want to support this, we want to get the word out that we want to do something about it. We want to get the word out about epilepsy, epilepsy research and making it better."
"There is a group of 21 plus with us today," said Sheila Diaz, whose daughter has epilepsy. "They put us together. We have the foundation. I go on [their website] and get on the blogs. It is just good to know information and to be a part of something big."
Sunday's inaugural walk raised $10,000.
CBS 3 Springfield was proud to be a sponsor of the event.

Visioning Ideas Wanted for New Northwest Library
The Metropolitan Library System wants to know what you want in your new Northwest Library. A recent community meeting was held with residents of the northwest Oklahoma City area to discuss what they wanted their library to look like and what was important to them. This discussion and presentation is now being continued on the MLS website at www.metrolibrary.org. The new library will be located in the 5600 block of NW 122nd Street, just east of MacArthur Blvd.
"We're excited to hear what the residents of northwest Oklahoma City want in their new library," said MLS Executive Director Donna Morris.
The website links to the community meeting presentation with ideas, photos and a timeline of the project. It also a "vision sharing" section that shows photos of libraries from around the nation – photos from inside the libraries as well as the exterior structures. "By browsing through the pictures and letting us know what they like about libraries will really help us get an idea of what customers want their new library to look like," Morris said. Residents can also send an email to email@example.com with ideas or suggestions.
"We hope," Morris added, "that the residents of northwest Oklahoma City will go to our website and let us know what they want to find in their new library."
The Metropolitan Library System of Oklahoma County includes 12 libraries and five extension libraries. Libraries include Belle Isle, Capitol Hill, Ralph Ellison, Ronald J. Norick Downtown Library and Southern Oaks in Oklahoma City, as well as Bethany, Choctaw, Del City, Edmond, Midwest City, Village and Warr Acres. Extensions are located in the communities of Harrah, Jones, Luther and Nicoma Park and include Wright Library in Oklahoma City. You can also reach us at www.metrolibrary.org

Concerto for orchestra
Symphony No. 1 in C minor
Amsterdam, Concertgebouw
It would be too good to be true were there a video recording of the master course that Herbert von Karajan held in Leningrad in 1968. We could see how the great master, with his unerring instinct for talent, took notice of young Mariss Jansons and then invited him to study with him in Berlin. This was the beginning of a delightful connection between Jansons and the Berliner Philharmoniker that has lasted for many years. In 1971, Jansons led the orchestra at a competition; his official debut followed in 1976; since 1988, he has given guest performances here almost every year. Today he is regarded as an outstanding interpreter of the late romantic and early modern eras in particular; these also define this concert.
First of all, there's Johannes Brahms's First Symphony. Brahms's completion of the work in 1876 was preceded by a 14-year struggle with it: Beethoven's shadow was too imposing. Brahms, however, ultimately found his own masterful way. In his symphony there's room for both the recourse to Beethoven and a forward-looking formal concept – with an introduction that already contains, in embryo, the symphony's entire thematic material. Béla Bartók, whose Concerto for Orchestra we will hear on these evenings, was an admirer of Brahms.
Béla Bartók, whose Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta we will hear on these evenings, was an admirer of Brahms. Bartók wrote the work in 1936 for Paul Sacher and his chamber orchestra in Basle. It is considered one of the Hungarian composer's most important works. Besides its unusual instrumentation, the composition captivates with an austere musical language, unusual rhythms picked up from folk music and a cheerful yet melancholy mood.

NEW ORLEANS -- Like two boozy tourists passing on Bourbon Street at dawn, the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers are at the same place at the same time, but headed in two decidedly different directions.
Super Bowl Sunday? More like Snapshot Sunday. Its Old vs. Bold.
The Ravens brightest stars Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Terrell Suggs and Anquan Boldin are all on the wrong side of 30. Retirement isnt far off for them.
The Niners, meanwhile, are led by a wunderkind quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, who was 13 the first and only time Lewis and the Ravens played on the games biggest stage.
San Francisco, the 80s dominant franchise, is built to become the Team of the Teens. Baltimore, meanwhile, would just take one last title before Father Time declares checkmate.
We talk about opportunity a lot and how you have to seize the moment and appreciate the moment and make the most of the opportunities, said Ravens center Matt Birk, the 36-year-old Harvard Man who went the first 14 years of his career without reaching the Super Bowl.
The future? Who knows, Birk said. I know teams go through that, they have a window and it closes and they have to rebuild.
Golden years
The Niners dont need examples. They lived through it for the better part of the decade. Between 1981 and 1994, San Francisco won five Super Bowls. The Niners missed the playoffs just twice in an 18-year span.
But after Steve Youngs retirement in 1999, the team was never the same. In the second half of the 2000s, eight wins was a good season. The franchise churned through three coaches in eight years.
But those losing seasons begot high draft picks who are now the backbone of perhaps the leagues most complete team: Vernon Davis, Patrick Willis, Michael Crabtree, Aldon Smith.
The Niners also hit on picks outside the first round, taking Kaepernick in the second round, and Coral Gables Frank Gore in the third.
As for the franchises most important acquisition, he wears a whistle, not a helmet. Coach Jim Harbaugh decided to stay home after leaving Stanford, spurning the Dolphins, among others, to take over the Niners.
In Harbaughs two seasons on staff, San Francisco has gone 27-8-1, reaching the conference championship both years. So good, so soon, the Niners arent just thinking one title. Theyre thinking dynasty.
Oh we talk about that all the time, said Crabtree, who is just 25. So much talent on the team, and were all kind of young. You just want to see it all stay together.
Said Willis: Those teams [of the past] have set the bar pretty high for us, for guys that have come after them. Weve been hearing about it the quest for six, bring that ring back. The pressures on.
The Ravens probably feel like theyre at Harrahs with a fistful of comped chips. They limped into the postseason losers of four out of five games, and were among the longest playoffs shots to reach the Super Bowl.
But then Lewis announced his retirement, and this has been a different team. (Although its unclear if thats causation or correlation; the team also has gotten healthy at the right time.)
And while talk of destiny might sound like hocus-pocus to clear-eyed realists, the way they beat the Broncos needing a miracle last-minute, 70-yard bomb to force overtime could make believers out of even the most cynical.
All about Ray Lewis
Lewis, the 17-year vet who has spent every year in Baltimore, always has had a knack of taking up all the oxygen in the room, and this week has been no different. Apologies to the Harbaughs John and Jim are the first brothers to coach against each other in the Super Bowl but this game is ultimately all about Ray.
His press conferences have been covered like White House briefings, ranging from the heartfelt to the bizarre (the deer-antler spray controversy).
Personally, I am playing with two aces, Lewis said. There is no lose for me, because Ive been in this game before, Ive won a Super Bowl, Ive won a MVP and Ive done all those things.
Now, being back here, knowing that this is my last time ever, the greatest reward to myself, honestly, is to give everything I got, he said. The greatest reward to my teammates is to give everything I got. At the end of the day when the clock hits triple zeros, I ride off into the sunset, and I ride off into an awesome life.

Mistweaver Monk Healing Guide (MoP 5.4)
Welcome to our Mistweaver Monk healing guide for World of Warcraft MoP 5.4. Here, you will learn everything you need to know about playing a Mistweaver Monk in a raid environment, although most of the content also applies to normal and heroic dungeons.
This guide has been reviewed and approved by unpl, a Mistweaver Monk who raids in Paragon.
The Mistwewaver is the healing specialisation of Monks, the most recently-added class in World of Warcraft.
Mistweaver Monks are, in many ways, highly atypical healers. They borrow certain concepts and mechanics from other healing classes, but manage to remain original, providing a fun playing experience.
A peculiarity of the Mistweaver playstyle is the need to be in melee range of the boss (or other hostile mobs) in order to reach maximum potential. Mistweavers are able to perform both single and AoE/multiple target healing roles, although they are much better suited at AoE/multiple target healing.
Mistweavers lack a wide array of buffs, cooldowns, and useful abilities. Despite this, we believe they are going to be a viable choice in any raid group.
To make it easy to navigate the guide, we have split it into 7 pages:
- Builds, Talents, and Glyphs: learn how to choose your talents and glyphs;
- Rotation, Cooldowns, and Abilities: master your rotation and your cooldowns;
- Buffs, Debuffs, and Useful Abilities: discover your arsenal of useful abilities;
- Statistics Priority and Reforging: read up on the respective values of your statistics;
- Gems, Enchants, and Professions: choose the best gems, enchantments, etc.;
- Macros and Addons: step up your game with useful macros and addons;
- Gearing Up and Best in Slot: find the best gear you can wear.

Walking Holidays
Dartmoor National Park – Dartmoor became a National Park in 1951, comprising of 368 square miles or 954 sq km it is the largest and wildest area of open country in southern England. Throughout the year Dartmoor is an exceptionally beautiful place to visit, with deep wooded gorges, beautiful lake-like reservoirs and tumbling rocky rivers. There are miles of unspoilt spectacular scenery for all ages and abilities to enjoy.
Roadford Lake - With over 730 acres of water, Roadford Lake is a spectacular lake set on the edge of Dartmoor between Okehampton and Launceston. Visitors to the southern bank of the lake can enjoy miles of footpaths and a cycle way which winds its way through a newly planted forest overlooking the Lake.
Lydford Gorge - Is the deepest gorge in the South West with a spectacular 30m waterfall. Walk the woodland trails through a deep-cut ravine alongside the river Lyd and enjoy the abundance of wildlife and wild flowers.
Coastal footpaths – The South West Coast path national trail consists of 630 miles of superb coastal walking. From Minehead on the edge of the Exmoor National Park to the shores of Poole Harbour in Dorset it is the best way to enjoy the wonderful coastal scenery, wildlife and heritage. Fantastic for short walks and gentle strolls as it is for long-distance walking. The terrain along the South West Coast Path varies immensely.

A fisherman on the day charter boat Enterprise was thrilled when he started catching sand bass Wednesday. But when Blake Hon hooked what seemed like a pretty large one, a fight was on.
It seems Hon hooked a sand bass, alright. But a giant mako shark wanted it, too, and gobbled Hon's fish--and Hon's hook, as Patch contributor Philip Friedman reported.
The #2 hook was fine for the day's bait, anchovies, and the 15-pound test was adquate for the sand bass, blogger Friedman wrote. But both were overpowered by what Friedman called the "mammoth" shark.
Read more about how the shark off of Huntington Beach was landed on the deck of the Long Beach Marina sportfishing boat, at Philip Friedman Outdoors.

The Euro-only Opel Corsa OPC is one of the most powerful cars in its class and with its 192 hp. That kind of power in a small car is more than enough, but as you know, in the world of tuning there are no limits. Lexmaul, a German tuner, unveiled their tuning program for the Corsa OPC.
Lexmaul added more boost to the 1.6-liter turbo engine, which elevated it to 210 hp. For better stability Lexmaul offers also a new suspension system, which lowers the car with 40 millimeters in the front and 50 millimeters in the rear. Price of the kit: €900 (current exchange rates: $1,253).

The Greek unemployment rate rose to 26.8% in October from an upwardly revised 26.2% in September showing that the Greek tragedy that is the debt crisis is not anywhere near over yet.

Animal Collective Takes Installation to the Digital Masses With New Website
In New York City, music, technology and art often merge and mingle, fusing to form unique experiences at places like MoMA, the Guggenheim Museum, and — shameless plug — The O Music Awards Unboxed series. While installations and experiences of this nature are a boon to New Yorkers and the city's myriad visitors, it's kind of a bummer that the rest of the world can't get in on the action. Until now, that is, as the band Animal Collective and video artist Daniel Perez have just unleashed their latest endeavor, Transverse Temporal Gyrus, on the web at large.

Sunday night Daft Punk won record of the year for their hit "Get Lucky" and also won album of the year for "Random Access Memories" at the Grammys. No one's really surprised, but let's look at how they got there and at the faces behind the helmets.
The members of Daft Punk, Thomas Bangalter and Guy Manuel de Homem Christo used to be in a band called "Darlin'" with Laurent Brancowitz. They got their name from a song by The Beach Boys.
Darlin' released a few songs and received a negative review from British music magazine Melody Maker calling the music "a daft punky thrash."
These are the four songs that Darlin' produced:
- Darlin' - I'm assuming this is the song that made the reviewer coin the phrase "daft punky thrash". It doesn't really go anywhere at all.
- Cindy, So Loud (Demo) - YIKES. I know that this was just a demo, but those vocals. Ouch.
- Untitled 33 - I actually really liked this one; it has an early Strokes feel to it. I really enjoyed the piano accompaniment; it brought a lighter layer to the song that I wasn't expecting.
- Untitled 18 - This song is the closest one to the present day Daft Punk that we know.
Darlin' disbanded shortly after, Bangalter and de Homem Christo began to experiment with synthesizers.
Brancowitz later teamed up with his younger brother and created a band called Phoenix.
Phoenix at the EMU Convocation Center in Ypsilanti, Mich. 2013 // See the full set here.
Daft Punk didn't always wear helmets when they performed.
They used to wear masks or different kinds .
Or really anything that would sort of cover their faces...
And the helmets themselves have changed over the years...
Present day helmets
The helmets were originally designed sporting wigs. But in 2001 while they were on their way to a photo shoot to unveil the helmets to the world, they decided to get rid of them. No photos exist of the wigs.
But what do they look like without those things on?!
Well, they used to look like this .
Image from Stereogum
But WHY the helmets?
In an interview with Canoe in 2004, Bangalter said, "We don't believe in the star system... We want the focus to be on the music. If we have to create an image, it must be an artificial image. That combination hides our physicality and also shows our view of the star system. It is not a compromise."
Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo recently told Rolling Stone, "We're not performers, we're not models – it would not be enjoyable for humanity to see our features, but the robots are exciting to people."
Robots or humans, we're pretty lucky to have them around.

Narrow your search
The big-screen Origin PC Eon17-S gaming laptop won't win any design contests, and isn't particularly portable, but our high-end config was great where it counted -- running new games at high detail settings.
Cramming the most high-end parts into a massive 17-inch body will top $4,000, but you also get a powerful laptop that has more next-gen gaming muscle than any living-room console.
You could do a lot worse than the DC40; however, you could also do better and spend less.
Play games in Windows or Steam OS with this high-end PC/console hybrid.
Pricing not available
Small-screen gaming laptops are rare because they require serious engineering sleight of hand. The EON13-S walks the line between power and portability, but it would be so much cooler with a custom body.
The Motorola Moto X hits all the right notes, delivering stock Android inside a powerful high-end handset that users can customize themselves.
No one puts together custom high-end gaming laptops, including this desktop-busting 17-inch EON17-SLX, better than Origin, but you'll pay for that expertise.
The Origin Chronos shows the strength of small boutique vendors with a fast, affordable, and compact little desktop that I can recommend to any PC gamer.
KitCamera is a must-have for mobile photographers with tons of tools and effects, along with fine-tuning controls to help you get the perfect shot.
Pricing not available
As one of the few high-end boutique gaming PC makers serious about laptops, Origin offers nearly any set of components you'd want in the overclockable, have-it-your-way EON17-S.

Chef Mario Batali and restaurateur Joe Bastianich, who have both made careers of introducing Italian regional cuisine to bicoastal diners, have opened Carnevino — an American steakhouse with an Italian twist — in Las Vegas.
The restaurant is located in the swank Palazzo resort adjacent to the Venetian, where Batali and Bastianich also preside over Italian-themed eateries B&B Ristorante and Enoteca San Marco. Carnevino's interior is modeled after an ornate Roman villa, with 16-foot-high ceilings and generous marble and wood accents.
Carnevino, which is a combination of the Italian words carne (meat) and vino (wine), marries high-quality American beef, lamb and pork with an old- and new-world wine list. And the menu is indeed American steakhouse gone Italiano. The house-aged steaks are rubbed in a traditional Tuscan blend of sea salt, black pepper and rosemary before charring. The restaurant also serves an array of antipasti and regional pasta dishes such as pappardelle with porcini mushroom trifolati ($39) and cannelloni with duck and amarone ($35).
Carnevino at the Palazzo, 3265 Las Vegas Boulevard South; 702-789-4141. Open daily for dinner, 5:30-11 p.m.
The 40/40 Club located in the swank new Palazzo hopes to attract fans of both fashion and sport.
For fashion credibility, the 40/40 Club is located in the hotel's shopping arcade, a stone's throw from Barneys New York. And the bar also can lay claim as the only sports lounge with a 24-karat gold and platinum floor, with a motif inspired by a Gucci chain.
The only fixtures that holler "sports bar" are 40/40's 85 plasma sets tuned into ESPN and major sporting events.
Owners Jay-Z and partner Juan Perez strove for an environment more VIP than MVP. The 24,000-square-foot space has sleek Ultra Suede banquettes topped with some 14,000 pillows, a dance floor and five private lounges.
40/40's extensive cocktail menu offers inventive drinks like the Vegas Snow Cone (a blend of cherry vodka, Malibu rum and watermelon schnapps) as well as Champagne and top-shelf spirits.

Sometimes I wish I could just write children's books. I usually think this about twenty minutes after my elation over writing a real book passes with my child's blood curling "pay attention to me" scream. A children's book! It's, like, ten pages!

There is a very specific way in which the events of the morning must take place. First, Baby O must be fed and rocked at 5:30 AM. This is to ensure that the rest of the family gets out of the house before 4:00 pm. Then I must workout at 6:15AM because working out is the same as five doses of anti-depressants and 6 bottles of booze. Together. Well, not quite, but you know what I mean. Then there needs to be swaddle/nap for the baby, a shower for the mommy and, if time allows, coffee. Blessed coffee. Foldgers hit the nail on the very-handsome-in-the-morning-man's head.

Look, I've had some hard jobs. I've worked technical support for a school district with over 100,000 users and only TWELVE support specialist. I've answered, "I don't know my email password" and "How do I change my desktop picture?" more times than I care to confess. It took patience. Not as much patience as the time I worked in a daycare with a class of eight two year olds and only ONE of me all stuffed in a twelve-by-twelve room for nine hours a day.
