"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Miami >Miami Airport Marriott
1201 NW 42nd Avenue, Miami, FL | Directions 3312625.78341 -80.264
M-Su 24hr
Neighborhoods: West, Flagami
Great Hotel BUT... – It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at referer.us/8/GoodHotelDeals They usually have some pretty good deals on there!
The NYTimes and the Miami Herald were right on! – This place is my lucky charm. I'm in Real Estate and I closed three deals this month there. What a welcoming environment. My clients love it and the food. Can't say enough about their fun way of creating Mojitos. It's like being in the world's biggest Florida Room!!!!!
I'll be there at least twice a week, lunch or dinner, doesn't matter. It is the perfect place to close a deal what ever industry you are in.
Here's the deal! – I travel a lot between New York and Miami and delays are inevitable. But NOW who cares?!? If my delay is two hours or more I just go outside the airport terminal and ride the free shuttle over to the Marriot hotel and enjoy my delay at Cane Fire Grill. It takes about 2.5 minutes each way! This is the best kept secret in Miami. The food (lots to chose from) is always quick and wonderful and a Mojito or two never hurt anyone waiting for a flight! YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE!
A stylish resto makes a safe landing at Miami International. – Forget everything you know about airport hotel eateries. This tropical explosion packs enough Floribbean flair to make Marriott guests wonder if they accidentally got on a wrong connection and wound up in the Caribbean or Latin America. Diners sit in lounge-like booths or communal tables and dig into passport-tugging menu offerings like ham-wrapped grouper, Bermuda fish chowder, and a surf and turf sandwich that pairs up swordfish with Serrano ham slices. The crowd consists mostly of overnight guests with plans of flying away the next day, but the ambitious menu wins over the occasional local.
Best Hotel Restaurant Food – I travel constantly and was shocked that it is a stone's throw from MIA, the restaurant itself is totally hip, interesting, and very beautiful. I had a simple BLT. But, when it is served with staff that showed up the moment I sat down, on sour dough bread (lightly toasted, mayo on the side), and FRESHLY cut local fruit........well, I was thrilled. My ice tea glass was magically refreshed without me asking. I am going to recommend this to everyone I know, and believe me, I know a lot of foodies who will love this. Wow, the Marriott has totally upgraded. Well done. I will be back with the masees. Thanks for taking such great care. Oh, and have the local ice cream from a company called Gaby's. Lychee ice cream, are you kidding me!!!! Oh, and the price was just too reasonable........
My new favorite place – Went last night for the first time. Nice place to hang out and not feel rushed through a dinner. The malta braised short ribs are good, really good!
Ceviche with popcorn patties was delicious. Never had anything like that before but will again.
Fun, Fun, Fun, Fun and Very Affordable – I started going to Cane Fire Grill for my celebrity sighting fixes. It's amazing how many miss their fights and waited it out at the Marriott. Queen Latifa was the best but after my first dinner there – WOW!!! I was hooked. Happy Hour is always filled with a fun crowd. Mojitos made from real sugar cane, appetizers so good (I usually get the sampler) I rarely make it to a dinner entrée. They have Gaby's sorbets and ice creams.
Dependable digs boast consistent service and ample amenities. – In Short
This highly recognized hotel chain has been taking care of business and leisure travelers since 1957. Professionals appreciate the business center, meeting facilities, in-room work area with ergonomic chair and no-glare lamp, and express check-out. Those who come to kick back take advantage of the pool and gift shop. Spacious rooms include a comfy bed with a quilted-top mattress, oversized comforters and feather pillows. Additional amenities include a fitness center, whirlpool and concierge services.

The Triumph Adventurer, a cruiser style version of the Thunderbird, adds dollop of crass to already glittery, faux concoction. It's an OK motorcycle, thanks mostly to the stupendous Triumph triple engine, but the Triumph Adventurer is about as cool and stylish as purple velvet loon pants. Oh, did someone say they're back in?
234cc, 17bhp, 75mph, Insurance group 5
For laid-back cruising, miniature style, you can't get much better than the Honda CMX250 Rebel. The engine's been around forever and the light weight makes for a gentle learning curve. The lack of power can soon become a problem, however, although cruising through town is a right giggle. Just don't try too much touring if you buy a Honda CMX250 ...
1450cc, 65bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 15
Basically the Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide Sport is as per the stock Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide but with a touch more hard edged sporting attitude courtesy of flat bars, a different seat, twin disc brakes and a touch more mean and moody matt black paint.
1449cc, 63bhp, 118mph, Insurance group 16
Although at first glance the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce is much like any other cruiser style Harley, the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce is, in fact, a real beaut. Based on the Harley-Davidson Softail but with a stretch tank, restyle rear fender, chromed fork sliders and pull back bars, the Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce has clean, classic lines that are classic Harley. It's also classily ...

Allowing the nation to go over the fiscal cliff for a very short period of time will provide all the legitimate political benefits of such a policy dive–with few to none of the menacing losses that are looming at the bottom. We can readily fly off the cliff on January 1st and be back on the top by January 2nd, 2013–even earlier if you cannot wait that long.
The gains have often been outlined. Allowing the Bush tax cuts to be reversed would allow Obama to increase tax revenues and subsequently introduce new tax cuts. It thus gets the Republicans who promised not to raise taxes off the hook and allows all politicians to crow that they cut taxes while increasing revenues–pure magic. The math is simple: if allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire increases tax rates on average by 4.2 percent, and the new cuts amount to 2 percent–we still have the remaining 2.2 percent difference as new revenues.

AQFT and operator algebra
under construction
The Gelfand–Naimark–Segal (GNS) construction establishes a correspondence between cyclic -representations of -algebras and certain linear functionals (usually called states) on those same -algebras. The correspondence comes about from an explicit construction of the *-representation from one of the linear functionals (states).
Given a state, , on some C*-algebra, , there is a -representation of with a cyclic vector whose associated state is . In other words,
for every in .
and this needs to be finished. I don't have the head for this right now.
The GNS construction is a central ingredient that translates between the Heisenberg picture and the Schrödinger picture of quantum mechanics: the AQFT and the FQFT picture of quantum field theory. In the former one considers -algebras of observables, in the latter the spaces of states. Given a -algebra of observables, the corresponding space of state can be taken to be that given by the GNS construction.

Smooth all over your body, taking extra care over your dry bits, like elbows, knees, and heels. With LUSH products a little goes a long way, so start with a little and use more if desired.
Sympathy for the Skin
8.4 oz.
Product Actions
This product does not contain animal products of any kind.
This product does not contain animal products of any kind.
More from Body Lotions:
Creamy, banana custard body lotion for soft skin
Sympathy for the Skin is probably the only banana body lotion in the universe, and almost definitely the only one with real, organic mashed bananas in it. We use real bananas to moisturize and make skin softer and more flexible, even if they're a bit of a menace to mash by hand. We think you're worth it. Incredibly soothing for dry or chapped skin, we blend in vanilla pods and vanilla extract to combat redness, lemon oil to brighten, and sandalwood to tone. Smooth our nutritious cream all over your body and go absolutely bananas.
- Does it smell like banana?: Although you might be able to pick up the scent of banana, it smells more like a vanilla and sandalwood custard.
- Nothing boring about vanilla: The sugars in vanilla retain moisture when applied topically making it a wonderful ingredient for hair, skin, and lips.
- Like a Rolling Stone: The name comes from The Rolling Stones' track 'Sympathy for the Devil.'
Customer Review
from Brita
"I love this stuff. Since I got into Lush years ago, I get samples or small bottles here and there of almost everything. I love trying new things out! But despite wanting to try a new lotion every time I reorder, I always come back to this. It smells AMAZING. It's ...more"
"I love this stuff. Since I got into Lush years ago, I get samples or small bottles here and there of almost everything. I love trying new things out! But despite wanting to try a new lotion every time I reorder, I always come back to this. It smells AMAZING. It's the best pick me up after a long shower after a long day at work. I sit down and slather everywhere with this. I could probably just sit and sniff the tub. That aside; it makes me incredibly soft. When I use this after a shower I notice my skin is extra soft. Usually the day after I slather, my live-in boyfriend will comment on how amazingly baby-soft my skin is. And that's not just lovey-dovey talk, after being together for five years it's just observation. That's him going "Whoa you're extra smooth!". My ONLY complaint is that my Collie will follow me around the house, trying to lick my legs, arm, hand - any skin that has come in touch with this. As soon as I open a tub, if she can she comes trotting over to try to stick her nose in it. SHE thinks it smells amazing, too. :) less"

Rather, she liked the blood-and-knuckles, old-school NWA, loser-leave-town kind of fights with yours truly trapped in the role of hero after some Neanderthal supposedly offended her delicate sensibilities.
And I was usually dumb enough to do it.
One time at a bar in Auburn, this girl, we'll call her Trixie, decided she didn't like the way some dude was looking at her, and rather than passively turning away and listening to the band, she decided to throw her vodka and cranberry juice on his head.
And like Bill Cosby says about back-talking his mama, "I don't remember much after that."
Fast forward 15 years, and though the circumstances have changed, it appears the Fates have placed me in the company of another girl who seems hell bent on watching me get my butt kicked (or humiliated) … only this time it's my daughter.
Jellybean's gonna get me killed.
Take our recent trip to Taco Bell. It was one of those Taco Bells that's connected to a convenience store. Jellybean and I are sitting in a booth by the door and she's eating her plain (I can't express PLAIN enough … as in no sauce. None) cheese quesadilla while constantly staring at the homeless man at the booth on the other side of the door.
I'm not trying to be judgmental when I say "homeless." Dude was drinking Fanta from a Cup O' Soup, eating peanuts off the table and had about as many teeth as a jack-o'-lantern. Plus, he was talking to himself. "Sure is cold out there," he said loudly over and over again.
Still, he seemed harmless. "Sure is cold out there," he said again. Jellybean couldn't take it anymore. "Yeah, and my Daddy let me go to school wearing a tank top." There was a second when I actually saw the guy stand up and stab me in the eye with a spork. But he just leaned forward, grinned and went back to eating his peanuts.
Jellybean was unperturbed. Not 15 minutes later a dirty hippie stumbled in (this is a pretty decent Taco Bell, I'm not sure what was going on that day), looking just like the lead singer from Blind Melon with long dreads, cut-off jean shorts on top of tight hot-pink women's yoga pants. Jellybean was fascinated … hell, so was I.
Before I could stop her, Jellybean blurted out, "Those pants match my shirt … but those are for girls." I just knew Dude Love was gonna beat me to death with his wizard-shaped bong. Instead, he stopped, pulled down his shades, smiled and said, "You're cute," before making his way to the counter for a gordita.
We escaped Taco Bell with our lives that afternoon, but I might buy some Mace the next time I take Jellybean out in public, just in case. I'll say this for her, just like that girl from so long ago, going out with Jellybean is a lot of things, but it's never boring.

After the attacks of September 11, 2001, a 2004 Saudi royal study group recognized the exigency to reform educational material in Saudi Arabia's public school curriculum. The study found that the Saudi public education system advocates a problematic legacy in their religious curriculum that condones violence, repression, and intolerance. Prince Turki al-Faisal, the Saudi ambassador to the United States, made public claims that the Saudi curriculum had been recently reviewed and revised to meet the needs of a more modern education. However, recent copies of Islamic Saudi textbooks that have been translated into English reveal a lack of modernization, which contradicts assertions of Saudi educational reform.

Mandarin Chinese is already the most popular first language on the planet, beating out English by 500 million speakers. And it's the second-most-common language on the Internet. Now, just as China requires students to learn English, Beijing wants to make Chinese the must-take language for English speakers - and everyone else.

LETTER FROM SOUTH AFRICA about corrective rape and violence against women and homosexuals. On a recent Sunday morning in the Johannesburg township of Kwa Thema, a young lesbian couple went to church. Kwa Thema, one of many settlements created by the apartheid regime to contain and control the black majority population, remains isolated today. The two women, Bontle Khalo and Ntsupe Mohapi, are leaders of a gay-rights organization called the Ekurhuleni Pride Organizing Committee, or EPOC. The couple formed the group, three years ago, to combat rising violence against gays in the Ekurhuleni municipality. They were concerned in particular about a gruesome crime known as "corrective rape"—an assault in which a man rapes a lesbian in an attempt to "cure" her sexual orientation. A lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender activist organization in Capetown says that it deals with as many as ten such incidents every week. Since 1998, at least thirty-one lesbians have been killed in attacks that were motivated by their sexual orientation and many of which began with corrective rape. Few arrests have been made. Members of South Africa's L.G.B.T. community encounter widespread discrimination, even though the country's constitution was the first in the world with a clause explicitly forbidding discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. The language was included in the 1996 Bill of Rights, introduced two years after the transition from apartheid rule to democracy, and intended to address South Africa's history of prejudice and legally enshrined segregation. But, with few policies in place to reduce high levels of poverty and inequality, hostility toward "difference" has barely slackened, and crimes against gays, and women, have increased. South Africa, with a population of fifty million, has one of the highest rates of violence in the world—more than forty murders a day, on average—and the highest rate of rape. In 2009, statistics from the International Criminal Police Organization indicated that a woman is raped in South Africa every seventeen seconds, and that nearly half the victims are under eighteen. One woman in two can expect to be raped at least once in her lifetime. A study by the South Africa Medical Research Council, also published in 2009, said that one in four men admitted that they had committed rape at one time or another. South Africans first became widely aware of the violence against lesbians in April, 2008, when Simelane, a thirty-one-year-old former member of the national women's soccer team, was brutally murdered. Simelane was one of the first openly gay women in Kwa Thema, and was training to be the first female referee at the Men's World Cup, in 2010, in South Africa. Discusses other cases of rape and violence against women and homosexuals in South Africa. Tells about the campaign for hate-crime legislation to be passed.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A Sumner County couple has been arrested and charged with stealing drain grates from a Hendersonville car wash.
The theft occurred Tuesday at the Rain Forrest Car Wash located at 307 New Shackle Road in Hendersonville.
Mark Swanner had only owned the car wash for a few months, and he said he never would have imagined have his drains stolen.
"That was completely off the radar for me," said Swanner. "I never would have dreamed anybody could have lifted it, but evidently they can."
Swanner's security cameras caught a white pick-up truck pull up around 9:30 a.m. Despite other customers washing their cars, the video showed the truck park just outside the bay and two people get out.
The truck was captured shaking on surveillance video. Police said it was from a man and woman throwing a heavy stainless steel grate into the back before driving off.
"I don't know how they did it because I can only lift up one end of it at best," Swanner said.
According to investigators, it has apparently happened to at least four other car washes in Hendersonville and Goodlettsville.
Detective David Harrell, of the Hendersonville Police Department, said they were able to track the pick-up truck selling storm grates at a Robertson County scrap yard. He said the investigation was a coordinated effort with the Goodlettsville and Ridgetop Police Departments.
Police said 33-year-old Charles Todd of Madison and 39-year-old Stephanie Broome of Hendersonville have been charged with theft.
"Anything that has value can be stolen and literally these people will take anything that's not nailed down," Harrell said. "All they care about is the value of the property, what they're going to get out of it for whatever they want to do. It's completely selfish."
The stolen grates have been returned to each of the carwashes. Now Swanner doesn't have to replace what was almost sold for a fraction of what it's worth.
"We do a lot of things at times when we're not thinking like we should be," he said. "Their head weren't screwed on straight obviously."
Hendersonville Police said the departments worked together with the scrap yard and carwash and the arrests were made quickly.
The motive behind the theft was not immediately available.

Such frankness of the new governor is refreshing. But the trouble with Nevada is what it was, let alone what it is.
Nevada is ranked near the bottom of the 50 states in so many categories. Examples:
• It is 48th in per capita spending on higher education.
• It ranks 49th in K-12 funding.
• It is 50th in the likelihood of a 19-year-old enrolling in college.
• It ranks 48th in people 25 to 34 who have completed college.
• It is 50th in child care.
Sandoval has pledged that the rot will continue by constantly repeating his mantra: "no new taxes."
A far wiser governor realized that higher taxes are essential. That governor, Pat Quinn of Illinois, signed a law that raises the state income tax from 3 to 5 percent.
No one wants to see taxes raised. But realistic governors have no choice if they want to remain a humane state. (Illinois faced a budget shortfall of $15 billion.)
Sandoval, on the other hand, guarantees that Nevada will remain a sad sack state. Nevada has no personal income tax. It has no corporate income tax. When compared with the tax breaks big business gets, business taxes shrink to virtual nonexistence.
Nevada is clearly a tax haven.
The state does levy a sales tax but that is regressive, the poor paying as much as the rich.
The state also relies on "hidden taxes." Fees for services go up and up. The once simple cost of re-
registering your car has ballooned.
Moreover, the mining industry and the gambling industry are greatly undertaxed in Nevada.
Andy Barbano, Trib columnist, points out that loopholes in the tax laws allow the mining industry to pay at a rate "far lower than an average non-union dishwasher."
Corporations producing gold from land in Nevada are racking up record profits. Shareholders worldwide reap the gains. Mining firms in Nevada have had a free ride since the Grant Administration law of 1872.
Nevada casinos? Barbano notes that save for a handful of jurisdictions where there is less regulation, they "continue to enjoy the lowest gross gambling taxes in the world."
He also targets Nevada business such as Wal-Mart big box stores which pay next to nothing on whooping profits.
The result of all this: dismantling of education.
The College of Southern Nevada has had to turn away thousands of student applicants for lack of room. Nevada research institutions are losing faculty lured by more lucrative offers out of state.
The University of Nevada, Reno, is budgeted for a 30 percent cut when you figure in a tuition hike, a faculty pay cut and increased costs of benefits. The K-12 budget calls for "stealing" $270 in support for each child.
Sandoval sleeps well despite such grim statistics. But education is too important to be left in the hands of seamy politicians.
In fact some businesses are refusing to come to this tax paradise. Two California companies refused to relocate in Las Vegas recently because Nevada lacks college graduates.
Beneath that smiling, friendly exterior Sandoval hides a mean streak.
He wants financially struggling college students to suffer a 12 percent tuition increase. In other words, a further step toward making higher education in Nevada too costly.
Faculty must take a 5 percent pay reduction, hardly an inducement for the best candidates to come to Nevada when openings are created by professors retiring.
Sandoval denounces public schools as full of incompetents who can't be fired because of the teacher's union.
He embraces a self-styled school reformer with a record of cruelty when she headed Washington, D.C., schools. His budget calls for a $100 million cut in mental health funding.
CityLife of Las Vegas reminded us that in his inaugural address Sandoval sounded like President Reagan of yesteryear.
Reagan in 1981: "Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem."
Sandoval in 2011: "Some believe government is the only solution to our plight. I disagree. The cure is not more government spending but helping business create jobs."
Democratic control of the state Assembly and Senate offers little hope for sanity to prevail. The Dems are gutless. Some know that taxes need to be raised but dare not even suggest such common sense.
"If we continue to cut education, Nevada will become a ghost state," one Nevada student laments.
Not a ghost state but certainly the cheapest and worst in the nation. Governor Sandoval presiding.
Jake Highton teaches journalism at the University of Nevada, Reno.

There are two ways of installing MacOS X Leopard on your AppleTV:
- Copy a pre-built (optimized) image to the internal HDD (recommended)
- Installing Leopard yourself (using a Hackintosh build, e.g. iDeneb)
This thread mostly deals with option 2. If you want to use pre-built images, follow this guide: http://www.hackint0sh.org/f291/219562.htm
Here are 2 pre-built images for you:
"Ready to use" 10.5.5 Disk Image Download WITH WORKING SOUND
* Download the DLC here: http://rapidshare.com/files/422122956/ATVOSX.dlc --> use JDownloader
"Ready to use" 10.5.8 Disk Image Download
* Jon's Torrent: Download AppleTV OSX.torrent from Sendspace.com - send big files the easy way
* Rapidshare: just send me a PM
* If you can't open the sound preference pane, install this into /System/Library/PreferencePanes/: http://rapidshare.com/files/28352884...d.prefPane.zip
* This is a fix for the not working bless command and if the ATV doesn't reboot withouth pressing a button on the apple remote: http://rapidshare.com/files/28387488..._bless_Fix.zip
* User password: "frontrow"
* Before uploading this image I forgot to change the UI language back to english. To change the language follow these steps:
1) Click the apple menu and then click "Systemeinstellungen..."
2) Click on the "UN flag" (Sprache & Text) on the top right corner of the system preference window
3) Drag the list entry called "English" to the top of the list.
4) Close the preference window and log out (apple menu/"frontrow abmelden...").
5) Then log back in and you should have an english UI ;-)
Installing Leopard yourself
Using a disk image
* Creadits go to: ptaylor874
* To make your ATV boot off of the usb disk, you have to change the partition GUID --> mounting the disk on your regular Mac OS X installation is not possible anymore (this is revertable though)
Get the disk identifier:
* Open Disk Utility
* Select the external disk from the left pane. Right click and select "Information"
* Take note of the "Disk Indentifier", eg "disk2" --> replace the diskX in the following steps with your disk identifier
Change partition GUID:
* Open Terminal
* Use this command: gpt -r show /dev/diskX --> you'll get something similar to this back:
* Write down the numbers "start" and "size" of the line with index 2, in this case: "409640" and "77757488"Code:start size index contents 0 1 PMBR 1 1 Pri GPT header 2 32 Pri GPT table 34 6 40 409600 1 GPT part - C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B 409640 77757488 2 GPT part - 48465300-0000-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC 78167128 262144 78429272 77610032 3 GPT part - 48465300-0000-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC 156039304 262151 156301455 32 Sec GPT table 156301487 1 Sec GPT header
* Unmount the disk: disktool -u diskX
* Remove the entry with index 2 in the table: gpt remove -i 2 /dev/diskX
* You get: gpt remove: /dev/diskX: 1 partition(s) removed
* Unmount the remounted partitions: disktool -u diskX
* Add the new GUID: gpt add -b START -s SIZE -i 2 -t "5265636F-7665-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC" /dev/diskX --> replace the START and SIZE strings with your values.
* Use this command again: gpt -r show /dev/diskX --> you should see something like this:
* You are now ready to boot your ATV off of the diskCode:start size index contents 0 1 PMBR 1 1 Pri GPT header 2 32 Pri GPT table 34 6 40 409600 1 GPT part - C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B 409640 77757488 2 GPT part - 5265636F-7665-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC 78167128 262144 78429272 77610032 3 GPT part - 48465300-0000-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC 156039304 262151 156301455 32 Sec GPT table 156301487 1 Sec GPT header
1. Preparation: intallation from scratch
* Connect the usb disk to your regular MAC OS X installation and use disk utility to create your HFS+ (Journaled) parition and format it.
* Insert your iDeneb 10.5.5 disk and reboot.
* Boot from your iDeneb 10.5.5 disk.
2. Installation
Selected Packages:
* Desired language packages
* Kernel 9.4.0 StageXNU (IMPORTANT: the description should state something like "SSE2/SSE3 emulation"!)
* IHCx fixed
* Apple SMBIIOS 667
* Firewird Remove
* ACPI-fix
* Shutdown-fix
Selected Applications - optional:
* BetterZip
* Kext Helper
* menuMeters
* Onyx
* OSx86Tools
3. Finishing Setup
* Boot your regular Mac OS X install.
* Copy over a AppleTV 2.2 boot.efi to /System/Library/CoreServices/ on the newly installed Mac OS X 10.5.5.
* Set the correct access rights: "755", ownership: "root:wheel"
* Patch the AppleFileSystemDriver.kext: http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/f98/634.htm.
* Open the preferences pane/startup disk and select the 10.5.5 Volume. Then restart.
* The newly installed Mac OS X 10.5.5 should boot now.
* Setup your Mac with the wizard.
* Wait till the desktop appears.
* Open preferences pane/sharing and enable:
* "File sharing" and "Remote Login" (ssh)* Disable automatic search for updates.
* "Remote Management": check everything here and then set enable "VNC users may control the screen" in "computer settings".
* Install the audio driver:
* Download the AppleHDA audio driver: RapidShare: Easy Filehosting.* Bless your boot.efi: sudo bless --folder=/System/Library/CoreServices --file=/System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi --setBoot
* Drag the alc885dump.txt on the AppleHDAPatcherv1.20 and wait till the patching is finished.
* Use Onyx to clear all caches (eg. with Onyx), especially /System/Library/Extensions.mkext!
* Use disk utility to make a file system scan (just to be sure, everything's ok).
* Use disk ulility to correct all ALCs.
* Reboot
* If it works, Reboot into your regular Mac OS X installation.
* Customize your account
* Use software update to install all available updates. WARNING: DO NOT UPDATE TO 10.5.6! All other updates are safe.
* Use Monolingual to free up round about 1.1 GB of disk space:
* Remove all but the desired languages + english. WANRING: NEVER REMOVE ENGLISH!* Use Onyx to make Mac OS X a little bit faster:
* Remove all unneeded keyboard layouts except "AppleKeyboardLayouts" - saves 53 MB. WARNING: DELETE ONLY IF YOU DON'T NEED THESE KEYBOARD LAYOUTS!
* Remove all plattforms except "Intel" - saves 97 MB.
* Go to the tab "Parameters" and uncheck "Window Zoom", "Animated Info window" and "Open programms with zoom effect"* Use "Desktop 2 Login" to get rid of the ugly iDeneb login wallpaper.
* Disable Dashboard and widgets
* Stop the blinking LED:
* Copy /usr/bin/osputil from an AppleTV 2.2 image to the same folder on your usb disk.* Reboot
* Use "sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/osputil" and "sudo chmod root:wheel /usr/bin/osputil" (without quotes).
* Add this line to the /etc/rc.local on the usb disk (without quotes): "/usr/bin/osputil --setLED=4:1".
* Use "sudo chmod 755 /etc/rc.local" and "sudo chmod root:wheel /etc/rc.local" (without quotes) to make the script run on boot.
* Make sure that the first line in /etc/rc.local is "#!/bin/bash" (without quites).
(updated the initial tutorial)
Change the parition type:
* This is only needed, if you want to boot your MacOS X from USB. This is not needed for booting from the internal drive!
* Follow this guide: http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/f98/634.htm.
* Mac OS X tells you, that it detected an unreadable disk. Abandon this message.
3. Booting on AppleTV
* Connect your usb drive, keyboard and mouse to a usb hub and plug that into your usb port on the AppleTV.
* Use a HDMI-Cable to be able to select different resolutions, eg. 1360x768. I think, that component out does only support native resolutions, like 1080i/p, 720i/p, 576i and 480i.
* Power it up. Mac OS X should boot now!
* If the picture flickers and the desktop doesn't appear, then simply turn of your TV and turn it on a few seconds later. The desktop should appear.
[UPDATE for installing iDeneb 10.5.6]
Installed Packages:
* Seatbelt fix (no more Problems with mounting dmg's)
* Apple SMBIIOS 667
* Firefwird Remove
* ACPI-fix
* IHCx-fix
* Install Kernel 9.4.0 StageXNU manually (9.5 or 9.6 Voodoo Kernel doesn't work)
* Onyx, OSX86 Tools etc.
* Manually installe ALC885 sound driver
What works
* Core Image, Quartz Extreme, Quartz GL
* Apple remote
* Frontrow
* WLAN, ethernet
* Sound on your TV, if connected with component cables
* Overall speed is quite good
What dos not work
* Flickering boot screen (only with my TV?)
* Sound over HDMI
* Custome resolutions with component out
* Composite output in color
* Spotlight (only when booting off of an usb disk)
* Everytime you start your AppleTV without the usb disk connected, AppleTV boots into recovery mode. Obviously it's not possible to use osputil to reset the boot count!

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Introduce Twins to the Worldby Hilton Hater at .
Mariah Carey may soon release a duet with Justin Bieber, but she made news this week for hanging with even younger, more adorable children.
The singer and husband Nick Cannon showed off six-month-old twins Moroccan and Monroe to the world!
"It's just love," Carey told Barbara Walters in an interview with her family and about her family. "It's a beautiful place to be."
The couple is unlikely to have more kids, Carey said, due to her difficult pregnancy. But she could not be happy with the new little men in her life - or with the big one, Cannon. Following a failed marriage to Tommy Mottola in 1998, it took awhile for the artist to be ready to truly fall for anyone else.
"Initially I was afraid of the concept of marriage [again]," Mariah said. "But this is a different situation and a different time in my life... No one will steal my spirit."

Don't know what all this fuss is about concerning the twins' colour. Mariah is a white woman with black ancestry (her father was not full black) and Nick is not dark either. My best friend's mom is the same as Mariah and married a black man. Her youngest child is that same colour as the dad, the oldest the same colour as the mom. The rest of them are all shades in between.
First off Mariah Carey is black & white. That's why her babies look white they are mixed.. Not all babies are gonna be full black if Mariah is mixed and Nick is black. Second, who could in their right mihd say any baby is ugly.... THEY ARE JUST BABIES! Just because you don't like Mariah, doesn't mean you should hate on their children.
I love the both of them and once again all who dont are just haters get over urselfs.. U wanna be like mariah thats why u say she sing like shit.. U must be on some good ass drugs cause ur buggin.. She got the best voice along with many other singers. Nick is a handsome young man who got him a beautiful woman and there happy so be happy for them they got two amazin kids that they love and support and u want to be in they shoes.. U need help for real.! An i dont have to say ur name cause u kno who u are just by readin this.
mariah carey & cannon, dont worry about what anyone says, i know what ur going through because my dad went through this too: having kidney sujery, so my mom was there & i went up there the next day in iowa city. I will keep u in my prayers. All my love & support to u & the family. Such adorable twins! Very cute as ever no matter what! :)

One reason that human language is so unique is that it has two layers, says Shigeru Miyagawa, a linguist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge. First, there are the words we use, which Miyagawa calls the lexical structure. "Mango," "Amanda," and "eat" are all components of the lexical structure. The rules governing how we put those words together make up the second layer, which Miyagawa calls the expression structure. Take these three sentences: "Amanda eats the mango," "Eat the mango, Amanda," and "Did Amanda eat the mango?" Their lexical structure — the words they use — is essentially identical. What gives the sentences different meanings is the variation in their expression structure, or the different ways those words fit together.
The more Miyagawa studied the distinction between lexical structure and expression structure, "the more I started to think, 'Gee, these two systems are really fundamentally different,' " he says. "They almost seem like two different systems that just happen to be put together," perhaps through evolution.
One preliminary test of his hypothesis, Miyagawa knew, would be to show that the two systems exist separately in nature. So he started studying the many ways that animals communicate, looking for examples of lexical or expressive structures.

Jet Set Drape-Neck Shell 1 1
Disappointed, too small I purchased the whole jet set skirt, jacket, pants, and tunics just before a 3 week business trip to Asia. I purchased size large in everything. All fit very well except for the shell, which I had in 2 colors. I could not take either shell with me, and they will be returned. April 12, 2014

If you are tired of clutter, stuffiness and a closed working space, then you will love staying at La Sirena Villa!
The first two adjectives that come to mind when describing this amazing property is spaciousness and simplicity. Every detail, every piece of furniture, every accessory has been carefully chosen to create a warm atmosphere, while letting the energy flow freely through the rooms.
Everyone who visits the La Sirena Villa complex for the first time agrees that the focal point of this inviting place is the large swimming pool surrounded by modern two-story villas.
Each villa at La Sirena offers its guests open floor living and dining areas, 3 airy bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen and two large patios.
Such layout makes La Sirena Villa an ideal choice for a big family or 3 couples travelling together. When you want to, you can all hang out in the living room or 'invade' the kitchen and prepare a delicious Mexican meal together. At the same time, the house is big enough for everyone to enjoy their moments of privacy, peace and tranquility.
Have I also mentioned that the La Sirena Villa is on two levels?
There are two comfortable bedrooms on the main floor with a hand-carved king and two double-size beds and a big bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Upstairs, there is the master bedroom suite that boasts a beautiful brick dome ceiling with cupola, an elaborated wood-carved king-size bed, a private bathroom and a love seat in a quiet nook.
A large French door leads the guests from the master bedroom to a spacious, private, verandah overlooking the garden and sparkling pool. The terrace is partially shaded by a traditional Mayan palapa roof that creates a shady retreat during the day. Equipped with cozy chaise lounges and a white patio table that comfortably seats 6 people this terrace is also a perfect spot for an outdoor breakfast or an evening game of cards.
If you practice yoga or meditation, the La Sirena Villa offers you two great spots – a large patio by the pool and a sunny beach a few minutes away from your condo – to release work stress, calm your mind and sooth your spirit. You could also cap your Sun Salutations or meditation with a refreshing swim in the pool or in the ocean (a "luxury" you cannot always enjoy back home).
And if you will want to emerge yourself in the authentic and vibrant Mexican atmosphere, all you have to do is take a 20-minute walk or a short drive to Akumal. There you will find excellent restaurants, numerous grocery stores, gift shops, ATMs, and several dive centers offering snorkeling, sailing and diving gear to let you experience the beauty of Half Moon Bay reef.
So the real question is – Why push back that dream Mexican vacation?
Now that you know a great place to stay, check the best-priced plane tickets, take your new swimming suit out of the closet, book your stay at the La Sirena Villa and make that dream come true!
3 bedrooms. Maximum 6 people.
We represent so many small, quaint facilities, privately-owned homes and we coordinate availability with local people. Add La Sirena Villa to your inquiry, we will get back with you, confirm availability and of course, answer any question you might have!

We stayed over Christmas & New Year with our 3 adult children. #16 was excellent, just steps from the, mostly deserted, beach. Room configuration was excellent & we enjoyed the master suite. Upstairs balcony was a suntrap. Villa is extremely well equipped & we appeciated the bbq provided for our use. Our sons kite-surfed at Xpu Ha & scuba dived in Akumal, while our daughter relaxed on the beach , all three took full advantage of the bar along the road. Take water shoes, beach is rocky as you step into the sea. Lovely sandy beaches along coast, worth a trip. An excellent vacation & we would certainly rent Ls Sirena #16 again.
