Long before Joe Basel was arrested in Louisiana, he and his cohorts were already traveling the country filming investigative journalism stunts. Here are five of the best.
The U.S. Senate today confirmed Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court. Our very own Sen. Al Franken presided over the vote.
We bring you The Best Of The Twit Cities, wherein we periodically wade into the local stew of political social networking to help you see what's cooking.
Also: Pat Buchanan's Minnesota, rubber-ball fetishist burglar
In our new social media column, we look at Franken and Digg. Do those heartless Diggers care? Maybe not.
If there's one way to truly date yourself as a white male bigot, Pat Buchanan nailed that viewpoint straight on the head last night on Rachel Maddow's MSNBC show.
Sonia Sotomayor was finally stumped by our very own Sen. Al Franken.
We have to admit Franken's first day questioning Sotomayor was "pretty cool".
Al Franken, who will likely be sworn in as Minnesota senator next week, has all eyes on him, even those pesky lobbyists who see him as potentially naive and impressionable.
In another example of Al Franken's fun game of pretend senator, the wanna-be sent out a statement this morning responding to President Obama's nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Now that we've heard what self-described "Sen.-elect" Al Franken has to say about President Obama's pick of Sonia Sotomayor, let's see what the real elected officials have to say about the nomination.

Interview Process A Key Aspect To The Scouting CombinePosted by on February 24, 2011 – 11:58 am
The NFL Scouting Combine is an event that's seen significant changes over the years, not the least of which has been how big of a media spectacle it has become. Originally designed to be an exclusive event born from the idea of convenience, the Combine is now must-see TV for avid and even casual football fans alike.
When you think of the Combine, you think of the 40-yard dash and the vertical jump and position-specific drills conducted by actual NFL coaches. All of those aspects of the Combine are important, but perhaps the most valuable part of the Combine for NFL teams is what happens when the cameras are not around.
Part of the Combine regimen is the team interview process, where the players cycle through a series of interviews with NFL teams. Most of the interviews are conducted in the player hotel just a block or so away from Lucas Oil Stadium. Each team has a private room and then a list of players who are scheduled to visit. What transpires in those interviews has every bit as much impact on the NFL draft as a 40-yard dash time or impressive display on the bench press.
The task for NFL teams is to get to know the players on a personal level, and that's a challenge because player agents do such a good job of "coaching up" their clients to interview well. It's really no different than a typical job interview for a college graduate or someone else looking for work.
"It's just to get the kids to get their guard down and make them feel comfortable," Vikings VP of Player Personnel Rick Spielman said of the interview process. "Knowing what you need to find out about that kid, you can kind of get into that area and get his guard down so he'll open up and discuss it freely. These guys are pretty polished up when they come into the room."
One illustration of how important these interviews are is the amount of time teams dedicate to the process. Again, the images most people see of the Combine are of coaches sitting in the stands and players running around cones. But coaches and scouts spend just as much, if not more, time in the interview rooms with players.
"We'll start on Friday and go through our last [interviews] on Monday evening," Spielman said. "As you would guess, we have pretty much every position coming through."
No doubt the QB position is a key one this offseason for the Vikings. Spielman said the team will focus on junior QBs in the interview process at the Combine because Vikings coaches and scouts haven't had much exposure to that group of players. They don't participate in many post-season all-star games and many of them don't declare for the draft until January.
I've had the opportunity to see some of these interviews take place first-hand and I can attest to how critically teams look at them in the overall evaluation process. While a single interview that lasts 15 minutes in a random Indianapolis hotel room won't necessarily make or break the average prospect, there's no doubt it's a key piece of the evaluation process for all 32 of the NFL teams.

Charmin is trying to find five, super-enthusiastic greeters to entertain bathroom guests at their public Times Square bathrooms, and then blog about the experience. For $10,000. Prerequisite: "All candidates must really, really enjoy going to the bathroom." Actually, an even better job would be the person who gets to interview all the candidates about why they enjoy going to the bathroom. That would pretty much make the best blog ever.

A term used when one is high on ecstasy.
E-Tard: Hey, Libra...you rolling yet???
Libra: Hell yea, baby! That pill kicked in nasty! Hey, did I ever tell you that I love you???
Libra: Hell yea, baby! That pill kicked in nasty! Hey, did I ever tell you that I love you???
Por Libra Chic 31 de octubre de 2005
Rolling is the high you get from droppin` (eating/swallowing) a baum (or ecstasy). About 30min to an hour after droppin` a baum you will start to feel this relaxed, flowing body high. it'll start off soft, and then get heavier. The intesity of your high will rise (which is called peaking), and then drop a bit. Then it'll get a lil' higher, and drop a bit again. That "rolling" feeling will continue untill the high is done (between 5-8 hours).
I'm rolling so hard right now fool!
Por hosef 06 de junio de 2006
When you get messed up off ecstasy. This is somewhat like less physical orgasms, just extreme bliss and true euphoria. Touching people feels so good, and dancing id effortless and uninhibited. It's not exactly like losing all control, you still have your morals, you just feel less obligated to follow them.
Steph was rolling face at the concert last night, she was all over that guy!
Por Super roller 10 de septiembre de 2006

Ali Fedotowsky: NOT Planning Wedding to Roberto Martinezby Free Britney at . Comments
Ali Fedotowsky of The Bachelorette fame is still together with her season's winner, Roberto Martinez, but says they are not planning a wedding as of right now.
The 27-year-old is aware of fact that it's been more than a year since viewers witnessed their engagement, but says they are quite content taking it slow.
"We're still engaged and living together," Ali said, deflecting rumors that they're on the rocks. "We just don't feel the need to walk down the aisle right now."
Ali Fedotowsky says the pair is doing just fine, but that pressure to set a date following their televised courtship and engagement overwhelmed them.
Another complication: difficulty in scheduling a TV wedding.
"When we actually did have a date that worked for us [last August], I had to have knee surgery ... No wedding is simple but this is even more complicated."
"We didn't meet in the most traditional way," she adds. "We had a very short courtship and we only knew each other nine weeks before we got engaged."
"We are still figuring out our lives as individuals."Ones to have to get married on TV apparently.
Still, she insists they're good: "At this point we're not planning a wedding. Does that mean we're fighting? No. Does that mean we're miserable? Absolutely not!"
"We're happy where we are," adds the morning show correspondent, now living with her beau in S.D. "When we have things figured out, we'll let you know."
What do you think? Will Ali and Roberto last?
It not so much that Chris was ready for marriage, he was. It's Ali that is not ready for marriage at all. She wants to continue partying and getting wild with her friends. There is nothing wrong but don't go on the bachelor/bachelorette if your not ready. Isn't that show for finding love and getting married? Ali just want to be flirting around with other men and still be in the camera's. She was never ready for marriage.
This relationship will be null and void in no time. They both struggle with their materialistic lifestyles and fake smiles. I wish them well but it feels hopeless to me unless cupid shoots another love juiced arrow into their hearts. The passion has faded and that was evident in their latest interview, they were both very apprehensive.
Ali I really hoped you'll not make the mistakes others do but so unfortunately, you did. It was very evident that Chris loved you more and was also so ready for marriage. I think you should go back to Chris if he is still available. You guys look good together and I think he is a lovely and incredible young man with a lot of love to share. Wishing you the best Life could offer and love you. I think you are a smart girl and you deserve to be happy.
You guys know whats best for you.wish you all the best.this is one union i'm praying God should last,and i know it will.love you guys....

How to support Death Metal Underground (DeathMetal.org)
Use this search blank to find metal on Amazon and pass along a small percentage to us!
Here are the essentials of a metal collection. Each one you buy sends us some small support.
Barbaric Softworks has signed a licensing agreement with Austin, TX-based continuation thrash band Birth A.D. to use Birth A.D. songs in Barbaric Softworks' newest title, Blocks of Explosive Dismemberment.
Unlike most video games, Blocks of Explosive Dismemberment has no winners. You just lose a little less, and survive a little longer. American and European ratings authorities will have a field day with this violent game notorious for its irreverent mockery of death, suffering and humanity's pretense of individuality.
In a similar vein, Birth A.D. has rocked the house with mockery on its latest opus, I Blame You. Recalling the golden days of DRI and SOD, this band nonetheless forges on in a continuation of what those bands created and does not rehash the past like the retro bands who are so thoughtless that it is tempting to lace their Capri Sun with antifreeze.
The combination of Birth A.D. and Blocks of Explosive Dismemberment should thrill even the most dour metal fan with its high splatter and body count, and the corresponding middle finger to all values that society holds dear. The game is due out in a later quarter of 2013.
(To get the full effect, hit "play" on both videos at the same time.)
Back in the early 1980s, before the teenage metal magazines got a grip on the term, there was a genre called thrash because it was invented by thrashers, that is, people who got around on skateboards and were as dropped out of society as the hackers and anarchists. In fact, there was a lot of overlap.
In the thrash genre, there are three big names who simultaneously invented this style of putting metal riffs in punk songs without losing the integrity of either genre, and those were DRI, COC, and Cryptic Slaughter. They crafted short songs out of 2-3 riffs and creative re-stylings of those riffs in the punk style, but using chord progressions and phrase-oriented riffs like metal bands. The result was a genre all on its own that was neither metal nor punk and literally invented a category for itself. Of those, COC had the most feeling of a classic punk band and got closer to what Suicidal Tendencies and MDC were doing, which was to make punk songs with a metal edge and play them faster than anyone else had ever done before.
For most of us, the only COC we could afford was the Caroline records issue of Eye for an Eye + Six Songs with Mike Singing on CD, since all we had before that were fifteenth-generation tape dubs from someone's brother's girlfriend's uncle's drinking buddy's vinyl dubbed in a basement next to a rack of molotov cocktails and homegrown indo. These songs are brief punches of angst and insight, opening with pure outrage at the ongoing failure of humanity and transitioning to an energetic desire to do something about it, much like a mosh pit itself. Over them, gruff vocals are almost totally incoherent and drums mostly keep time but diverge when they want to for added emphasis.
Eye for an Eye + Six Songs with Mike Singing won most of us over for its raw creativity. It lifts some material, including a bass riff from Yes and at least a couple riffs from Black Sabbath, but that's immaterial; the point is that each of these songs is a small story, and although circular one that mimics its topic matter and thus, each song is distinctive and yet within the same style so that the album holds together like a wartime journal and yet has enough variety to be heard time and again. Thrash lives with this re-release that brings the original material back to life for a new generation who may need a guidepost beyond the pre-packaged categories of music product.
Success in life often comes down to timing. Some of metal's best bands, by virtue of being ahead of the curve, simply get there too fast and go too far to be as noticed as the others who plod along and thus are right about where their audience expects them to be, thus understands them and thus can appreciate them.
It reminds me of the friend of mine who wrote an English paper in high school that the teacher dismissed as nonsense; when he handed it in at college, he got an A. He was just too far out ahead of the curve. In the same way, Houston's Dead Horse were just too ahead in too many ways at once for most people to grasp. Thrash is a hybrid between punk songs and metal riffs, so named because of its popularity with thrashers or skaters. Thrash bands like DRI (also from Houston), COC, Cryptic Slaughter, MDC and Fearless Iranians From Hell (from San Antonio) were famous for short intense songs of social commentary that was more existential and practical than political. Dead Horse took it even further to a nearly literary level.
After producing a series of demos that were well-received in the underground and even among "normals," Dead Horse recorded and self-released their first album, Horsecore: An Unrelated Story That's Time Consuming. After that, they gigged like maniacs and finally got on a larger label to release their second album, Peaceful Death and Pretty Flowers, at which time a death metal and progressive metal influence was flowering in their music. But after that, they never really got a handle on things again, despite releasing a pair of well-received EPs. As often happens in Texas, the local scene swallowed them, in equal parts of taking them for granted and resenting them for rising so far so fast.
Fast-forward to last year. Most of Dead Horse is now gallivanting around in Pasadena Napalm Division, while original frontman Mike Haaga makes his living making oddball soundtracks and performing live. Like many talented people in metal, he left it behind, probably outraged at the simple inability of metalheads to unite to do anything, a self-defeating practice that delights their detractors (what's better than an opponent who commits suicide?). But the other band members have continued on and played a show in Houston which was memorialized in their Making a Dead Horse Live DVD.
According to most recent reports, the band is returning for a live performance at Fitzgerald's this Saturday, possibly with Kurt Brecht of DRI making an appearance. It's good to see this legend rise again, and this time, perhaps stay in flight.
The problem with success is that it can become a cage: you get known for doing something that meant a lot to you at the time, but time goes on. You want new horizons. It's hard to express them, and you see others succeed for doing a lot less.
Suicidal Tendencies launches 13 into a time where metal and punk have both decided to commit suicide by melding so extensively with other genres as to lose their own identities. Melding itself isn't bad, but when a whole genre does it, it essentially obliterates its unique voice and makes itself another flavor of rock music.
13 escapes Suicidal Tendencies' past by mixing in a number of alternative, improvisational and extrinsic styles. In particular, you'll hear island-based world music, Rage Againsst the Machine, and even the keg-party reggae-influenced rock of bands like Sublime, all mixed into what's essentially a punk band playing metal. The locus of the action has changed: where the original Suicidal Tendencies want to make a point with its songs, these songs want to set up a convivial atmosphere and into that speak some ideas with lyrics. The original songs resembled their content; these songs are a mixture of fun and diverse elements, and expression occurs in the lyrics.
With this album, Suicidal Tendencies demonstrate how an album can be quite good and not satisfy its original audience. I think this will be a huge hit among the alt-rock and nu-metal crowds because it's more musically interesting than most of the kiddie music. It's based on firm grooves, catchy melodic vocal hooks, and an insanely over-the-top constant lead guitar jam that gives this music a breadth that is rarely found in music you hear on the radio.
However, for metal fans this one is going to be a failure. It has lost the metal spirit, and it essentially party rock with some metal riffs. The cool guitar work and occasional shredding give this some power, but it doesn't switch it to the viewpoint a metal fan will appreciate.
Apparently, rapper 50 Cent is a Municipal Waste fan. From the great info-dump that is Facebook:
Whenever society gets too complacent and considers itself to be a success, Birth AD pops up out of a nearby container and reminds it that civilization is failing, most people are idiots and we're probably all doomed. The difference is that Birth AD is funny and has good music, while just about anyone else criticizing society is a bore.
Coming to us from Austin, TX, Birth AD is a continuation of the crossover movement called thrash from back in the 1980s; if you remember how everyone and their brother wore a DRI shirt when they went to the skate park, you remember this movement. It was a cross between hardcore songs and metal riffs, and the result was unique and spoke clearly to the fears of the age.
While there have always been retro-bands looking back toward this style, Birth AD took up the style while looking forward, and have carried it into a new dimension of what it always could become. We're very fortunate to have Jeff AD to speak with today.
What were your influences in formulating your style, and how did you update it without having it be assimilated by newer forms of music?
There aren't any new entries that motivated me, it was all the classics. SOD, DRI, Dr. Know, Fearless Iranians From Hell, Cro-Mags, Nuclear Assault, and other usual suspects were touchstones. I willfully refused to let my material reflect any late-model sounds. Why would I? I was there when the sound was at its peak (admittedly I wasn't even a teenager yet, but it still counts).
I felt like a lot of bands from that period had one really crucial album and then fizzled or stumbled. Bands like SOD and the Cro-Mags were effectively lightning in a bottle in that they each made one massively influential album and then fell apart. There was so much potential, so much more to be said, and I wanted to create something that was a direct continuation of those great releases, free from the adulterants of current conventions. Crossover is a very specific hybrid, and a band simply cannot invoke the term without cultivating a handful of necessary elements.
You're about to launch your first full-length album, I Blame You, on Dark Descent sub-label Unspeakable Axe records. Can you tell us what's going to be on the album?
We pulled a Dealin' With It and re-recorded the entire EP, along with several new songs. Alex Perialas helmed the recording at his world-famous (and gold record laden) studio, Pyramid Sound in Ithaca, New York. We recorded in January 2012, so it has sat in stasis for a bit while we figured out where to put it. Part of this was because I wanted to work with Alex without exception, and January was the time he had available. It's a good thing we did it when we did, as he subsequently got into a property battle with the city and the whole endeavor would have been shot to hell.
What do you think makes a great crossover thrash album or song?
It has to be memorable and catchy while communicating a coherent idea. DRI was my primary model because they were always good at writing clever lyrics that sent clear and pointed messages. It also helps to be succinct. If you make it past the four-minute mark, you're doing it wrong.
Why do you think there's so much interest now in older styles of metal?
It's natural to look back on 40 years of metal and its variants and wanting to explore it all, especially if you were too young to take part the first time around. In a way, this phenomenon benefits Birth AD quite well, because we're a new band with an old sound that younger fans can claim as their own. Outside of that, pretty much everything good in the genre has effectively been done, so it's hard to re-invent the wheel. I don't blame anyone for wanting to stick with the known quantities to ensure their money is well spent.
When are you guys going to finally dig up Cryptic Slaughter and Fearless Iranians From Hell, and do a tour with them and DRI?
We've played with DRI before, which was a massively good time. As for Fearless and Cryptic, I'll get back to you on that once I get the time machine operational. Can you imagine what it would be like if hessians harnessed time travel? "We've got a Celtic Frost concert in 1986 to see, we'll kill Hitler later!"
Why do you think "crossover" thrash arose when it did?
I think it was because so many metal band and hardcore bands liked each other's stuff and it became imperative for a middle ground to be created. SOD was effectively a one-off tribute to bands like Dr. Know and Agnostic Front, but they ended up sparking a whole new phenomenon because their musicianship was so elevated and the production was so good. In any event, it needed to happen, but after that most bands involved went fully into the metal end of things and lost the punk and hardcore elements that made it qualify as crossover. Birth AD was created in the name of preserving that rarefied sound without the inevitable departures made by our forebears.
How influential do you think "crossover" thrash was on genres like death metal and black metal?
That's a revealing question in that I don't think it had much impact at all. Death metal bands were more influenced by proper speed metal like Slayer and Dark Angel, while Black Metal was influenced by the European groups like Celtic Frost, Venom, Bathory, et al. Those bands deal in fantasy and the abstract, while thrash is steeped in the rigors of daily life. Crossover is something of a specialized entry, much like a cheetah in that it really gets the job done in one very specific way.
What's next for Birth AD?
I'm going to be a grandstanding pain in the ass about this album and see where it takes us. I want to tour and spread the word. I think the time is right. In the meantime, I'll be causing problems and beating up on hipsters as usual. I urge everyone to do the same.
Back in the 1980s thrasher music — a hybrid of punk and metal listened to by skateboarders — was big. In the 2000s, Birth A.D. has resurrected this style not through retro-nostalgia but by picking it up where it left off and taking it further.
Thrash grew up from simple short and fast punk songs with metal riffs and reached its peak with S.O.D.'s Speak English or Die and D.R.I.'s Crossover. These albums packed the intensity of the blur-speed earlier work into lengthier songs with more emotional depth and variation. Birth A.D. picked up from that point with their first EP, Stillbirth of a Nation, which kept the chunky riffing but added melodic vocals and song structures customized to the topic of each song.
Returning with wisdom and more vitriol, I Blame You shows Birth A.D. reforming their style. The album comprises songs from Stillbirth of a Nation matched to new material which is tighter, faster and harder-hitting. It hits both with ripping riffs and militant time changes, but also with a greater internal contrast between themes which gives these songs a greater poetic intensity.
Lyrically, Birth A.D. emerges straight from the thrash tradition, which is to criticize our society as having made a wrong turn somewhere and now heading for doom. The lyrics defy categorization unless you imagine a systems architect looking at modern society as a whole and suggesting changes that management has overlooked for its own reasons. Of note is "Popular War" which criticizes the tendency of people to really enjoy killing other people when it's easy, fail-safe and creates a good opportunity for business.
The original thrash movement burned out because it burned too bright. It had a lot to say, but instead of drawing it out into long dramatic pieces, it blasted us with rapid-fire alienation. Easily understood, it was rarely understood, because it was too radical. Birth A.D. bring this idea back not by imitating it, but by upholding its spirit, which makes for an exhilarating and violent listening experience.
Birth A.D., the "continuation thrash" band that picked up where DRI's Four of a Kind and SOD's Speak English Or Die left off and then took the style to new levels of insanity, will unleash its full-length album I Blame You on April 1, 2013.
However, you can make sure you get it as soon as possible by placing a pre-order ($10) with Dark Descent's sub-label, Unspeakable Axe records, who will be sending this slab of vigilant virulence out to the stores and distros that get it into your sweaty hand.
In other words, get it from the source. Produced by legendary 80s metal and crossover producer Alex Perialas, this disc showcases the best of Birth A.D.'s work to date, including some tracks from their killer EP Stillbirth of a Nation as well as new material.
Expect this to be out the door very quickly and taking over the world of metal-punk crossover music. Unlike the "retro" musicians who re-live the past by imitating it from a distance, Birth A.D. lives the past by bringing its spirit and technique into the future. The result is heartening for anyone who wanted metal to recover its intestinal fortitude and sense of honest humor.

Fashion Pet Peeves

I was at a meeting last night where the subject of "age appropriate" came up, it then went to a discussion of "in styles" that make us crazy. One of my least favorite fashions that has become a pet peeve is skinny jeans. I inadvertantly bought a pair..... and returned them when I couldn't get them past my knees. I know I'm not the target market for these jeans, but how does someone without toothpick legs get these jeans on??

"My fashion pet peeve is anything that doesn't fit well because it not only looks bad, it looks sloppy."
I agree!

Another pet peeve of mine is the flannel pajama pants or fuzzzy pajama pants worn to spend the day in. They are sold in the PAJAMA department for a reason!

The High School Equivalency Test (HiSET) replaced the General Education Development (GED) Diploma as Maine's High School Equivalency Assessment on December 6 2013. All of the local adult education programs previously administering the GED began administering the paper version of the HiSET on January 2, 2014. The paper-based version of the assessment will continue throughout 2014 with programs transitioning to HiSET's computer-based version as they are able in 2015.
The HiSET consists of the following five subtests: Language Arts Reading, Language Arts Writing, Science, Social Studies, and Mathematics. Because HiSET's subject tests are the same as the current version of the GED, Maine will be able to apply the passing scores of GED subject tests to the HiSET. This means that Maine learners did not fall off the "GED testing cliff" at the end of 2013. Adults may have started the GED, but can finish taking the remaining subject tests with the HiSET before December 1, 2014.
There is NO COST for Maine residents to prepare for and take the HiSET. Local adult education programs provide HiSET testing, preparation materials, pre-tests, and instruction, all at no cost to the learner.
Maranacook Adult Education is your Community Connection for information on how you can use Maine's expanding high-speed broadband internet connectivity to help you meed educational goals, enrich your life, obtain health information, access governmental services and enhance economic and community development.

The B-52's for the post-Simpsons era, the five members of Detroit's Electric Six make dancing not only fun again, but funny. In the proud tradition of the band's 2003 debut, Fire, there's an emergency in progress on the new Señor Smoke, and the only solution is to dance as if German techno-punks are controlling your ass via remote control, while hairy American bikers shoot at your feet. In "Dance Epidemic," the Six's Lord Byron-like front man, Dick Valentine, sets the scene to the band's impeccable fusion of Eurodisco and '70s cock-rock: "Your body goes to waste every minute you don't give it to me/I'm dying for your sins on the dance floor, can't you see." But his finest moment yet may be, "You scorcher! You scorcher! Fried egg on your face, girl," from "Be My Dark Angel." On paper, of course, this all sounds like harmless novelty music, but to see and hear the Electric Six is to witness a band so seriously silly as to make most "serious" bands simply laughable.

Something green is coming to Western Albemarle High School.
In 2014, the school will offer an Environmental Studies Academy open to any high school student in the county.
"We felt it was a good fit for our school," WAHS principal Dave Francis said. "We felt that it would provide the needs of a diverse population of students."
The opportunity is modeled off similar academies at other Albemarle County high schools. Monticello has an academy in medical sciences, and Albemarle has one for math and engineering.
"It's this really broad academic field, because really, the environment is everything that surrounds us," WAHS 11th-grader Mary Swanson said. "It's our natural environment, it's the manmade environment, it's the relationship between the two and how humans interact with these."
Swanson said she plans to make environmental studies a career.
"The great thing is that because it's such this broad field of study, there's so many different job opportunities that students can learn about within the academy," she said.
Students won't just take courses about forestry or wildlife conservation, but also environmental policy and law.
"Environmental studies is such a huge area with so many different directions that we can go in," Francis said.
One of the goals of the program is to feed the passion of kids who want to make environmental sciences a career and to give them an outlet they don't have right now.
Not only will kids get book smart in the classroom, but they'll get hands-on experience at some local farms.
"It's more than just the science, it's more than just a vocation," said Peter Traverse, the farm manager for Innisfree Village who will be working with the academy. "It's policy, it's our value system, it's how we're going to look at our landscapes and how we relate to them in the future."
The next school year will consist of planning for faculty. Students can begin applying to the program in the middle of the year, and the academy is expected to begin its first courses at the start of the 2014 school year.

SINGAPORE – Military brass shopping at Asia's biggest defense expo this week have drones high on their to-buy list. But for U.S. manufacturers, there's one problem: They can only sell to a few countries because of tight export restrictions.
Those controls give rival drone makers from countries such as Israel and China a chance to win more business in the growing global market for unmanned aerial vehicles.
U.S. arms-makers have been lobbying the government for several years to loosen the restrictions so they can sell their systems to more countries.
They fear their established market is shrinking as domestic defense spending is squeezed and the U.S. military withdraws from Iraq and Afghanistan.
American aerospace companies are showing off the latest missiles, attack helicopters and fighter jets at the Singapore Airshow, but they may find foreign rivals have the upper hand in cutting more deals for drones.
Exports of drones are tightly controlled by an agreement signed by members of a group called the Missile Technology Control Regime, which includes the United States, Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan.
The group has since expanded to 34 countries, but Israel and China aren't members.
Officials at companies such as Northrop Grumman, which makes the high-altitude Global Hawk, argue that the restrictions hurt competitiveness in a market that Teal Group Co. forecasts will expand to $11.6 billion in 2023 from $5.2 billion last year.
At the same time, human rights groups and some U.S. politicians have been increasingly critical of drone strikes for killing civilians.
Israeli drone makers, including Elbit Systems Ltd. and Israel Aviation Industries Ltd., or IAI, had big displays at the Singapore Airshow.
Israel has overtaken the U.S. as the world's largest exporter of unmanned aerial systems, selling $4.6 billion worth from 2005 to 2012, according to a report by consulting firm Frost & Sullivan.
In the same period, U.S. overseas sales amounted to $2 billion to $3 billion.
Meanwhile, China's rapidly maturing drone capabilities are alarming experts.
China is positioning itself so that any country on the planet that, for political or financial reasons, is restricted from purchasing American or allied drones will be able to go to Beijing and get a comparable platform, said Ian Easton, a research fellow at the 2049 Project Institute security think tank.
He co-authored a recent report on China's drones.

text: Never Before Seen Footage: Andrew Breitbart on 'American Hero' Brandon Darby Print article Send a Tip by Lee Stranahan 11 Sep 2013 post a comment For the people that loved and admired Andrew Breitbart, it will be impossible not to watch this never-been-seen footage of him without having a profound sense of what we have lost. You're about to see a nine minute clip that's part of a longer 45 minute interview that was shot for the new film Informant about Andrew's friend and protégé Brandon Darby. Although the interview is specifically about Darby, it also carries a much broader meaning. It's a reminder that when we lost Andrew in March 2012, the world was robbed of the most fervent warrior against the modern left and the number one recruiter of new troops in that fight. A little backstory is in order. Andrew Breitbart famously hated bullies and two young men named David McKay and Bradley Crowder are the ultimate bullies. McKay and Crowder were leftist anarchists who made decision after decision to terrorize the people attending the 2008 Republican National Convention. They traveled to the RNC in Minneapolis with homemade weapons and once there, they made Molotov cocktails. Luckily, the group had been infiltrated by an undercover FBI informant named Brandon Darby, who was instrumental in stopping McKay and Crowder from doing any real harm. At the time, Darby was a hero to the radical left and a legend for his work feeding people in New Orleans after Katrina. In order to help convict McKay and Crowder, he revealed his law enforcement work. By helping the justice system in the conviction of these anarchist thugs, Darby became a wanted man on the left. In this newly unearthed footage, Breitbart talks about meeting and mentoring Darby. Breitbart didn't live to see the Boston Marathon bombing but his understanding of culture and media allow him to make a chillingly prescient statement about how the left puts their heroes on cover of Rolling Stone. If Darby had busted conservatives, the world would have been his oyster but because McKay and Crowder were committed leftists, Darby was subject to ostracization and death threats Andrew also points out the harsh truth: conservatives are often just plain lousy at reaching out to people. What Breitbart did better than any other conservative in recent memory is outreach. Long before the pundits looked upon the wreckage of Mitt Romney's run for the White House in 2012 and began bleating the word OUTREACH like so many sheep, Breitbart realized that building a big tent was the only way to long term political success. Despite his high-profile media presence, Andrew often did this the old-fashioned way: one person at a time. Andrew's big tent expansion tactics weren't conciliation or compromise. In fact, Andrew Breitbart simultaneously symbolized two seemingly contradictory principles. He fought a fierce, brave, offensive battle for conservative principles while at the same time championing, mentoring and shepherding new people and organizations into the movement. Breitbart's firebrand evangelism is summed up by a line from his final CPAC speech: And when I walk through CPAC or I travel the United States to meet people in the Tea Party who care - black, white, gay and straight – anyone that's willing to stand next to me to fight the progressive left, I will be in that bunker. In Brandon Darby, Andrew Breitbart found a fighter; someone that other conservatives had simply ignored. When Andrew met people for the first time, he didn't assume the worst of them based on their race, background, sexual orientation or stated, current ideology. Based on his own background as a 'default liberal' growing up in Los Angeles, Breitbart fundamentally believed in the power of people to change. He knew that some of the best fighters against the scourge of progressivism were once progressives themselves. Andrew realized that the stranger you meet today could become the ally standing shoulder to shoulder with you next year. That stranger doesn't become an ally through insults lobbed thoughtlessly or assumptions made prematurely and they don't just show up magically. Sometimes the key to outreach is simply reaching out. Since Andrew Breitbart left us, Barack Obama was elected to a second term as president. The political landscape seems more uncertain than ever and with Obamas's flailing failures evident on display in both domestic and foreign policy today, it's more important than ever to enlist new fighters for freedom. Andrew Breitbart is back today– if only for nine minutes – to explain exactly how it's done. Here's hoping that for the sake of all our heirs, including the four children Andrew loved so much and left behind, that politicians and conservative activists will listen and learn.

- Good sushiClassicVIPDined on 11/5/2014Good sushi for those interested in modern niguiri and modern rolls. A lot of flavors integrated into each itemSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding qualityCaptainSpiffDined on 11/4/2014Having tried Sushi all around the globe and being used to Norwegian produce in the sushi, I believe I am qualified in my statement; This was extraordinary! The variety and quality was top class. Excellent service. A bit bright lighting - probably done on purpose Japanese-style in order for guests to enjoy the visual impression. I think I would have dimmed it a bit, but aside from this minor item, the overall experience was great. Definitely going to be my regular pit-stop in New York. To Gari; Congratulations with a quality product!Special Features:
- loud on saturday nightLove2DineOutVIPDined on 10/25/2014we love the food at gari, and it's always high quality and delicious, but saturday night was so busy, so loud, and so unrelaxing that we'll be sticking to sunday night and early in the work week dining going forward.
- Yumy for Sushi-Sashimi gourmandsSwimmerVIPDined on 10/25/2014I'm always happy when friends from out of town visit--I get to treat them and myself to scrumptious Omakase at Sushi of Gari!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 10/21/2014always the BEST freshest most original omakase in town !!Special Features:
- Unjapanese, unwelcoming placefairfoodieVIPDined on 10/18/2014Felt like they were pushing us out in 30 minutes. Staff was grabbing our plates before we finished - the worst experience in any of Japanese restaurants - awful. It's a money, turning table machine. Nothing human. Service is nonexistent. Food was mediocre too - if not having the chef selection - there is absolutely no point of going there. Sushi combination come absolutely with no presentation. They are so CHEAP - we were embarrassed for them!!!! Never go - there are so many better Japanese places.
- Excellent food....RJBJRDined on 10/7/2014One of the best sushi restaurants in Manhattan....Special Features:
- way way over price for what it isOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 10/1/2014a big big disappointment. the sushi was not that fresh, and for 400.00 for three people , i was expecting the best.
- The best sushi EVER!OpenTable Diner Since 2003Dined on 9/23/2014Let the chef decide what you eat, you won't regret it.Special Features:
- Over the top sushiRaulVIPDined on 9/20/2014One of the best sashimi and sushi in New York. Order the Omakase and sit in the sushi bar. Could turn to be very expensive but still 1/3 of MassaSpecial Features:
- Great food, but..SwedishChefDined on 9/15/2014The tempura did not match my expectations and the atmosphere was a bit too much "local diner". But the quality of the sushi was amazing!!Special Features:
- Fresh Delicious SushiPatBDined on 9/15/2014A la carte menu was extensive, but expensive! High quality sushi grade fish. Nicely prepared and presented.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sushi quality at it's bestBjkbjkVIPDined on 9/11/2014There are many places in nyc that provide great sushi, but Gari's is definitely top of the line. The restaurant is not fancy but the quality of the food is consistently outstanding. The prices are high, but you leave feeling you get what you paid forSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nowhere near worth the priceRhodeeDined on 9/11/2014Extremely disappointed with this experience. After reading mostly good reviews, we tried it and came away hungry, disappointed with the food/price ratio, but most importantly we felt rushed by the wait staff (the entire dinner was under an hour). Maybe they were told by management to move diners out quickly? And I won't be giving this place a second chance.
- Our favoriteSwimmerVIPDined on 9/11/2014There are sushi restaurants and there are sushi restaurants. Gari which is the Japanese word for the pickled ginger that goes with sushi, is our favorite, and I've eaten at 2 other highly rated ones in Zagat. Because this is an attraction for young--and it's a Japanese restaurant that is not owned by other nationalities, one also sees Japanese people. Whether one sits at a table or at the sushi counter, one gets oshibori (moist hot cloth to clean one's hands before eating). The sake listing of cold sake is excellent. The melt in your mouth sushi is divine. It requires no soy sauce or wasabi. I prefer lunch when it's less bustling, or even take-in, as I live close enough to have delivery! Happy when I can treat a friend & myself tooSpecial Features:
- Great sushiOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/10/2014The salmon-related sushis are just one of the best. The tuna was ok. The seaweed salad was really nice but the other kinds of salad was just soso. The creative nigiris are definitely worth trying.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great sushiSusieQDined on 9/10/2014My friends and I had the sushi and sashimi specials. Fish was fresh and delicious. Presentation was gorgeous (we had to take photos). I would go back and bring out of town visitors again.Special Features:
- GariDMCTVIPDined on 9/6/2014The food was good but the sushi was quite expensive. Be prepared to spend a lot of money.Special Features:
- Best Sushi in the neighborhoodYummyfoodDined on 9/5/2014My husband and I always come here to get out chef tasting fix. We sit at the same section at the bar and by this time our sushi chef knows us. We are big foodies so ah-ing and oooou-ing with our eyes and ummm-ing after we've tasted his creation is what we look forward to at Gari.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- So fresh!MomdineVIPDined on 8/22/2014You never have to worry. Food is always fresh. The food comes out quickly which my kids love. The only negative is the UWS location is cramped. So it is not a place for slow dinner. Its an in and out.... But very worth it place to eat!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not worth itRealDined on 8/16/2014Omakase was average compared to other great sushi restaurants in nyc. Service was subpar. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. What a waste. Seriously.
- WastingfoodisasinVIPDined on 8/16/2014First of all, must say a la carte menus are overpriced. Good to stick with set or course menus. Enjoyed Kama toro and seared scallop of sushi deluxe. Tempra of young ayu (sweet fish) was oily, but tasty. Hamachi with jalapeño sounds famous though it was so so. Yes, tomato tempra over salmon sushi was quite interesting. Service was good. It was too cold to dine inside due to blowing wind from air conditioner. Michelin guide is always too generous to Japanese restaurants.
- Very pricy for ordinary sushi.DaizDined on 8/15/2014I would not recommend. Clearly over rated. I was disappointed.
- not a good valueOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 8/14/2014the sauces didn't really complement the fish all of the time. Four people omakase with two bottles of sake (easy to do). $1,000 and I left hungry.
- My favorite SushiyaSwimmerVIPDined on 8/11/2014Lunch is my favorite time because it's not as crowded or loud as in the evening. The quality of the sushi is outstandingly delicious aand comparable to the 29 rating in Zagat that their most recent rating for Sasabune. Checking with an astute friend who has been to both, we are definitely fans of Sushi of Gari's Omakase. Recently I ate with 3 other friends who were unfamiliar with this fine cuisine and had the Gari Chef Delux Sushi of nigiri sushi and a role for less than half the price of Omakase that was superb, and quite satisfying. We also enjoyoed edamame, spinach goma-ae and kombucha tempura. In writing this review, it's making my mouth water just thinking back about how much I have enjoyed always eating here. And they deliver!Special Features:
- always the bestsushiloverVIPDined on 8/5/2014consistent-great sushi -- always meets expectations- great neighborhood regular spotSpecial Features:
- Good foodjadednewyorkerDined on 8/2/2014We met our friends for dinner at Gari with the expectation to enjoy the food and catch up. The food was great. The fish was fresh and well prepared. Unfortunately, the expectation is that once you are done eating you have to leave. When we finished eating,the check was brought promptly and shortly after, we were asked to move our conversation to another area of a restaurant because our table was combined with another to accomodate the large group. Be prepared to take any conversations elsewhere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great sushiSteveGDined on 8/2/2014As usual, Gari does not disappoint. However, when dining at a restaurant that provides such an outstanding sushi experience, it is insulting that they charge extra for a little more salad dressing.Special Features:

- Really good sushi - but priced highstockstar66VIPDined on 7/24/2014I have been to the location on Upper West Side a couple of times and I enjoy the novelties of what they do - but I have to admit that it is just sushi with an interesting bit of sauce added to it - so it shouldn't cost $300 for a party of two for dinner....just saying.
- 1of the Top Sushi Rest. in the CityMSR5Dined on 7/23/2014A real Gem- The sushi is unbelievably fresh, our favorite was the salmon sushi topped with the grilled tomato and the yellowtail topped with the jalapeño pepper. The rolls were delicious, fresh, and cut into 8 edible size pieces. The service was fast and the restaurant was completely filled to capacity. The only negative is the noise level. It is hard to hear if you are more than 4 and that is still tough at times. However it would not prevent me from returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Emi Kobayashi has succeeded in summoning the squid-god Ikukami, and the Takada Academy's female student body are being tickle-tortured non-stop to provide Ikukami with the kusuguri energy needed to fully manifest and take over the world. Our pink-haired heroine Ryu Uchida has been rescued and recruited as a reluctant savior by her old boss, female yakuza Keichi Onadera. Onadera is sure Ryu's ticklish ordeals have provided her with enough kusuguri to defeat Ikukami.Unfortunately, Ryu isn't wild about putting her own life on the line to save the world, and uses a little tickling-magic of her own to get away from her captors, the all-girl terrorist group known as the Three. But Ryu is far from a kusuguri mistress, and she ends up face-to-face with Emi. Will Emi's own ticklishness finally be revealed? Will Ryu save the world after all?

Mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts with KHotKeys
A Game of Signs
Mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts
add speed and simplicity to PC
operations. Mouse gestures used to
be the domain of Opera and Mozilla
users,but KHotKeys now brings them
to Konqueror for users of KDE 3.2 or
newer.You can even launch non-KDE
programs with KHotKeys.
KDE is an extremely flexible system.
The context menus that drop
down when users press the right
mouse button are just as extensible
as the K menu or the quick start icons.
And hiding in the depths of the KDE
control center is another interesting program
that allows more flexible use of
KDE: KHotKeys. With KHotKeys, the
user can assign keyboard combinations
to applications. You can even use
mouse gestures to control Konqueror
(see Box 1).
To launch KHotKeys, press [Alt-F2]
and enter khotkeys, or open the Control
Center and open the Regional & Accessibility
section. When you launch
KHotKeys, a warning message appears to
inform you that changes can be dangerous.
This article gives you an introduction
to some simple but effective settings
within the KHotKeys application. It
always helps to be careful, but you will
have few worries about these changes,
even if you are a newcomer to KHotkeys.
Once you become accustomed to
KHotkeys, you will have your own ideas
for hot keys and gestures that will
increase the efficiency of your desktop.

This bill finds two these two old pals—they teamed up for a trio of hairily experimental efforts as Terrestrial Tones in the mid-aughts—showcasing very different abilities. As a member of Animal Collective, Dave "Avey Tare" Portner (pictured) has perfected a virulent, recombinant strain of pop twee; alone, his muse wanders darker, danker alleyways. Expect tonight's DJ set to celebrate his myriad, disparate musical influences. Eric Copeland, on the other hand, has a jones for melodic pop turned upside down and inside out: elementary-school anthems fed Quaaludes. It's a far cry from the uncategorizable anti-music Copeland makes with Black Dice, and three times as awesome. Bring along an extra face or three, in case your original melts off and gets all over your oversized Paw Tracks hoodie. 18+.

happycheapskate: Those are electric compressors, aren't they? If you took their motor to use on a bike, you would need a long cord!
I remember seeing someone reporting info about the generator motor, and said that it would be very hard to use the motor from it; that it was too tightly integrated with the generator.
If you had an electric bike, you could probably come up with a way to use the HF generator to keep the batteries charged, though...Lou

I have another thread on this site about which 2 stroke generator and compressor engines can be used on mb's. The compressors are 2 cycle gas engines, and not compatible. The generator might be useable for some kind of home-rigged job, but does not bolt up like the auger engine to existing kits.Someone yelled at me while getting in their car, "ARE YOU TOO LAZY TO PEDAL?" I almost fell off the bike laughing at the irony.

In the past I purchased knowing that the tools are of low quality. And if it breaks or did not work it had a 30 day return policy. Now
they have a 20% restocking Fee (as they call it) for anything you return. Even if its dead out of the box!
Before this you knew they sold crap that it may or may not work but you could always return it. Not any more. Harbor Fright
calls it a rental tax. I will be buying from Home Depot from now on. I'm boycotting Harbor Fright until they remove this
policy. I hope you do also.

The craft's maximum 200 horsepower engine will allow you to easily reach a cruising speed of 25 knots. And whether you want to relax with friends or get your line in the water, our SMART edition combines the right mix of Cockpit, Cabin and Fishing options for your needs–your boat will be perfectly suited to your lifestyle.
The 675 Pilothouse is a ready-for-fun craft designed with safety in mind. High freeboards in the cockpit, safety rails, and easy bow access ensure a worry-free water experience with plenty of other safety options too.

Ready for a great fishing experience? Prepare your bait at the dedicated station with an integrated cutting board. Then locate the best fishing location with your optional GPS/fish finder. Once you're there, grab your rods from the easily-accessible, rod holder, and get that hook in the water from the large cockpit or forward fishing platform. And when you start to reel them in, keep your catch fresh in the fish lockers with optional pump/aeration system. The 675 Pilothouse – designed to enhance your fishing day from start to finish.
Your comfort is our goal. The fully configurable cockpit space can be converted in a minute to seating and dining area with an optional comfort pack. In the cabin there is seating for four, and a convertible berth that sleeps two. A wide starboard walkaround allows easy bow access, and a sliding door provides shelter and quick availability to the rest of the boat. The handy galley with sink and cooker can be easily upgraded to include fresh water capabilities and a refrigerator. You can also enhance your craft with a dual helm station, sea toilet and colored hull.
The 675 Pilothouse combines a sense of space and freedom without sacrificing storage. Your fishing rods will fit perfectly in a lockable floor storage area. Lockers in the cockpit floor, a fully-lined storage area below the galley, and additional space under the berth and the aft bench seat provide a variety of safe, accessible locations for you to keep all of the things you need for fishing and fun.
Be sure to get what you need: the Smart Edition is based on the options that are most frequently requested by our customers.
