It is the year 2034. Beneath the ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro, the remnants of mankind are besieged by deadly threats from outside - and within. Mutants stalk the catacombs beneath the desolate surface, and hunt amidst the poisoned skies above. But rather than stand united, the station-cities of the Metro are locked in a struggle for the ultimate power, a doomsday device from the military vaults of D6. A civil war is stirring that could wipe humanity from the face of the earth forever. As Artyom, burdened by guilt but driven by hope, you hold the key to our survival - the last light in our darkest hour...

Shrouded in secrecy and feared for their ruthlessness, Assassin's Creed Assassins intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict. Assassin's Creed players, assuming the role of the main character Altair, will have the power to throw their immediate environment into chaos and to shape events during this pivotal moment in history.Assassins Creed II:

As the holiday season nears, cookbooks are always among the first items considered for the gourmet on your gift list, but today I've got a recommendation that can't wait: "Thanksgiving: How to Cook It Well" (Random House, $18) by Sam Sifton.
The unfussy prose fits this authentic, traditional approach to preparing a Thanksgiving feast for friends and family.
Sifton, who is now national editor for The New York Times, honed his skills as a food scribe doing reviews for the Times and still writes a food column for the Sunday Times Magazine. His descriptions of memorable feasts and the requirements for creating your own are richer than turkey stock.
As for the recipes, Sifton has provided the most practical turkey preparations, keeping in mind all budgets. But he makes clear from the beginning that this is not a book for ingredients purveyed from cans or boxes. Neither is the book for those seeking alternatives to turkey. I have never hidden my disdain for roasted turkey, but after reading Sifton's book I am born again in my faith in turkey as the centerpiece of this holiday.
"You will make a turkey. Turkey is why you are here," Sifton writes in the introduction.
Nor is the book aimed at redefining the feast. The recipes are not avant-garde and don't include molecular gastronomy or vertical presentations. The book is all about turkey, dressing/stuffing, potatoes, gravy and three kinds of pie — apple, pecan and pumpkin.

text: Fishery Officers say a Rotorua bar owner who used his premises to buy and sell illegally caught fish must have been "crazy" to think he would get away with it. Edward Beau Flint, who owns and manages the Slab & Huia's Snooker Bar in Bidois St in the Fairy Springs suburb of Rotorua, was this week convicted of unlawfully purchasing fish for the purpose of sale and of knowingly permitting his premises to be used for the commission of an offence. He pleaded guilty to the charges in the Rotorua District Court on Wednesday 2 February and was sentenced to 200 hours' community service. "It is almost impossible to believe that Flint thought he could get away with this type of behaviour in a place as public as a bar," said Ministry of Fisheries Field Operations Manager Brendon Mikkelsen. "While a few of his patrons were prepared to buy his illegal fish, the vast majority of New Zealanders rightly see very little difference between buying and selling illegal fish and buying and selling stolen property." Mr Mikkelsen said members of the public who witnessed Flint's illegal activities were quick to use the Ministry's popular 0800 4 POACHER number to report him. As a result of their information, the Ministry deployed Fishery Officers who watched as Flint acquired fish in his bar's carpark from convicted Maketu fish poacher Norman Evan Reid. "They also saw him on-selling this illegal fish to bar patrons and offering to act as an intermediary between his patrons and Reid," Mr Mikkelsen said. Flint also admitted that he had raffled some of the illegal seafood, which included snapper and tarakihi fillets, smoked kahawai, rock lobster, mussels and eels. "Like most Kiwis, the Ministry has no tolerance for this type of illegal behaviour," Mr Mikkelsen said. "People tempted to poach seafood from our coasts or buy and sell it illegally need to realise that most members of the community are not interested in having someone steal their fish from the sea and then try and sell it back to them. "There are '4 million guardians' supporting fishery sustainability in this country and, as this case shows, they are quick to report illegal activities when they see it." Members of the public who see any unlawful activity (including suspected poaching and offering seafood for sale on the black market) are urged to phone 0800 4 POACHER (0800 476 224) in confidence.

Okay, I''ll admit it, I like Asik better. I definitely think they will both have very good careers. And finally, someone who agrees, that Ibaka is a  shot blocker, not really a great defender.

Henson will be solid down the road but his ceiling is more like Taj Gibson. He is a great role player but not elite like Sanders and Ibaka could be if people were not so willing to shoot on him.

*Snip*I remember reading a story about clotheslines. One younger lady used hers all the time and was given grief that she put her 'unmentionables' on the line, especially in light of her older, bachelor neighbour. (He wasn't the one complaining.) She had a good relationship with him so for his 50th birthday, she made sure to hang out 50 pieces of lingerie, just for him. He thought it was hysterical.

Can Palestinians make peace with themselves?
02/13/2013 22:17
Fatah and Hamas can't agree on when, how or even whether to hold elections they say they want for the legislative council and president.

Palestinian election officials began a week-long voter registration drive in the West Bank and Gaza Monday in preparation for elections that probably won't be held. Rival factions Fatah and Hamas can't agree on when, how or even whether to hold elections they say they want for the legislative council and president.
That split will be one more factor if, as expected, President Barack Obama offers no new major peace initiatives or proposals for resumed Israeli-Palestinian negotiations when he visits the region next month. And any Hamas-Fatah reconciliation could be the final nail in the coffin of once-promising peace talks.
The latest attempt at reconciliation failed this weekend in Cairo, as have all previous efforts despite mutual declarations of commitment to a unified Palestinian leadership, and the outlook for the future is bleak. Reconciliation is popular on the Palestinian street but not at the leadership level, despite all their brotherly rhetoric. The two competing movements have opposite viewpoints, fear the other seeks control over its territory (true) and their leaders dislike and distrust each other.
Fatah, the moderate and secular party that dominates the West Bank, recognizes Israel, supports the two-state solution and maintains relations with the Jewish state, most importantly on security matters. Hamas, the militant Islamist group which controls Gaza, vehemently opposes any cooperation or compromise with Israel, whose destruction remains its central goal, as it is of its Iranian patrons.
For all their talk of brotherhood and dedication to the Palestinian cause, Fatah and Hamas would each like to see the other destroyed. Hamas seized control of Gaza from Fatah in a bloody coup in 2007 and has been plotting a West Bank takeover ever since, which helps explain why elections remain elusive.
Mahmoud Abbas, the Fatah leader and president of the Palestinian Authority, wants to appoint an interim government of nonpartisan technocrats to prepare for elections within three months. Hamas wants to put some of its own people in the interim government and opposes setting a date for elections.
That leads to concern that once Hamas becomes part of the government there will be no elections and it will use its new position to try to take over the PA.
Israelis remember that when Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 Hamas soon took over and turned the area into a base for sending suicide bombers, missiles and rockets into Israel, and they expect the same thing would happen if Hamas achieved its goal of controlling the PA and the West Bank.
Abbas has refused Hamas' demand that Fatah end security cooperation with Israel, which has led to the arrest of many Hamas terrorists by both the PA and Israeli forces. That cooperation, with American funding and training – along with construction of Israel's controversial security barrier – has kept Hamas terrorists from operating inside the West Bank and infiltrating into Israel. A better-trained and professional security force, replacing Yasser Arafat's corrupt and inept policy, has also made life safer for West Bankers.
Abbas was elected president in 2005 and the parliament the following year, each for a four-year term. There have been no national elections since. The legislature hasn't even convened since the 2007 Hamas coup.
They have been postponed repeatedly not only because the two sides can't agree on basic terms, but also because Fatah fears another Hamas victory like the one in 2006 that gave it control of the Palestinian Legislative Council.
Hamas also has reason to fear a Fatah victory, which may help explain its similar reluctance to agree on terms and conditions for new elections.
Hamas blames Abbas for the failure of the latest round of reconciliation talks, saying he is stalling to see whether President Obama will arrive next month with a plan to restart peace talks with Israel. Fatah denies that and has rejected holding a three-way meeting with Abbas, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Obama.
Obama's visit is another reminder of how the past seven years have been disappointing for Hamas. It expected by now that the western powers would grant it recognition but they still refuse, demanding the organization first accept Israel's right to exist, agree to abide by all Palestinian-Israeli agreements and renounce the use of violence.
Hamas' roots are in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood as are those of that country's new president, Mohamed Morsi, so it had expected he would come to its defense when Israel launched Operation Pillar of Defense three months ago in response to escalating rocket attacks from Gaza.
Instead, Morsi helped broker a cease-fire and, adding insult to injury, said he intended to abide by the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty.
Abbas, who will be 78 next month, has said he does not plan to run again, but Fatah sources say he could change his mind, possibly depending on who else is running.
Hamas and other militant groups are considering lifting their refusal to recognize the PLO as the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinians and join.
That has led to speculation in Palestinian media that the leader of Hamas could become the next head of the PLO, which would create a schism with the United States, Israel and the Europeans, all of which consider Hamas a terrorist group and refuse to recognize it.
Abbas knows that a reconciliation agreement with Hamas will have severe repercussions.
American funding is likely to dry up and so could much of the money from the Arab world since the Saudis and others often need a lot of pressure from Washington to honor their pledges. More immediately, Israel would react harshly.
Hamas being part of the PA or taking over the West Bank security forces would be intolerable.
Reports out of Ramallah and Cairo say Abbas may soon unilaterally dissolve his government, name an interim cabinet and order new elections, but that is highly unlikely because he knows Hamas would not only boycott them but could try to disrupt and prevent them.
As the Fatah-Hamas rift widens, you can't blame Israelis for asking how the Palestinians could make peace with Israel when they can't even make peace with each other.

Specialty wine shop, Subway under construction on Ann Arbor's North Maple Road
Daniel Brenner | AnnArbor.com
Pram and Suzanne Acharya, owners of the 12-year-old Esperance wine shop and cafe in Charlevoix, signed a lease for the 1,100-square-foot space next to the under-construction Subway.
"Ann Arbor is, in our opinion, the most vibrant city in Michigan currently and has been for a long time," Pram said.
"I think the clients in Ann Arbor have the discerning palate; they support nice places with great food quality."
The husband and wife pair has been in the hospitality business for decades — they met while working at the Golden Mushroom restaurant in Southfield and also worked at Tapawingo in Charlevoix.
Photo from Esperance
The Ann Arbor wine shop, which will also be named Esperance, will focus on a wide-ranging wine selection and a small selection of food. An experienced sommelier, Pram said he will carry bottles of wine that range from $7.50 to a couple thousand dollars.
"I chase quality, I don't chase price," he said. "You only have one life, you really should drink quality wine at whatever price you can afford. I don't mind if you come in and spend eight dollars, but we want to sell the best bottle of eight dollar wine you can afford."
The food, he said, will be a carefully curated selection of upscale, interesting and quality products.
"It will be a lot of interesting food that you can quickly take home and make a meal with," Pram said. "Because we've been in the food business so long, every product we will have we know intimately. We don't put anything on the shelves unless we believe in it."
The shop is one of two retail spaces in the 2,200-square-foot redevelopment. The building, which was completed in 2008, is registered to Lagos Investment Company, LLC.
Ann Arbor's Colliers International marketed the retail spaces for an annual $27 per square foot, and Subway sandwich shop franchisee Mike Heffner signed a lease for one of the spaces in Aug. 2011. Issues with the cooler systems delayed construction on the restaurant for some time, said Jim Chaconas of Colliers.
"They should be moving along pretty quick," he said. "The landlord had to get his work done and then (the restaurant) goes through and pounds it out."
Heffner could not be reached for comment for an update, but permits pulled with the city of Ann Arbor indicate work at the space is making progress. He applied for restaurant build-out and reoccupation permits in June.
Pram said he and his wife have not determined a timeline for opening Esperance yet, but they plan to start construction on the space in coming weeks. They will take turns coming to Ann Arbor to run the store.

"Divan Talya Hotel"
Overall we had a really good stay at the hotel. When we booked the holiday online we had the option of a twin or double room, we wanted a double room but a twin had been booked. When we arrived at the hotel, we asked if we could change the room to a double from a twin. This was not a problem at all, it was changed effortlessly and we had a seaview. […] Our package included a buffet breakfast which was more than satisfactory. A good variety of hot buffet, continental, customised omlettes and fruit, it was quite a feast. The hotel staff were more than helpful and their english good. The rooms were comfortable with ethernet cables in the rooms for internet and wifi in the reception, pool and restaurant areas. The location was fantastic, very central and walking distance to the old town, about 10-15 minute walk. We found the staff very hospitable and most helpful especially when I left a bag in the room and had already returned to London. We also had a massage which was very good. 詳情Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Reasonable price for good quality"
This hotel is good location. There is a silence part of city and a good private beach. Beatifull sea view from the window of room. The hotel needs a renovation, I think, for more attractive to guests. And prices inside the hotel is little bit high. For example, 1 bottle of water cost 5 tl inside the hotel and 0.5 tl in the shop. The cup of turkish coffe […] cost 9 tl inside the hotel and 3-5 tl in the outside the hotel. But beach and sea are beatifull and I like this place! 詳情Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Not what I was expecting."
The only things that were good about the hotel is the view and the pool. It does not have internet tv and the internet service was horrific. I tried to contact my family several times on skype just to get kicked off as soon as I connected. The only chanels that were in English were MTV and VH1. The beds were hard as rocks and this is from a sailor that […] sleeps in a coffin locker. Even if I were ever to visit Antalya again, I will find another place to lay my head. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Very Disappointed"
I decided to stay at the Divan Antalya during a recent military port visit based off reviews and photos this hotel seemed very nice. Well, never again! First off, this hotel needs updating. Stains all over my carpet, hall ways smelled like body oder along with being as hot as outside. A/c in the room barely worked and when I complained and asked for […] a fan I was refused and they told me no other rooms where open. Advertised wifi internet, well, in the lobby. LAN internet was very slow and intermitant. Also advertised internet TV, non-exsistent, TV was a small "tube tv" with all Turkish Channels with the exception of 2 english channels. Beds were not very comfortable. Best thing about the hotel was the view and the pool. Private beach is not a beach, it's cut into the sea wall with a small landing. Lastly, when asked for ice for my room, 2 hours later it was brought. Complimentary breakfast was good otherwise I will never stay at this place again. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Could be better"
The location was good and so was the service but the hotel needs some maintenance. For example, the tubs for the shower were way too high. The swimming pool was the worst off all. The pool was surrounded by about a 2in sharp marble that was so dangerous because it caused my daughter to breake her foot. On top of that there was no lifeguard to watch […] my children. I just want everyone to know to be very careful if they have kids who want to go swimming in the divan hotel. 7/16/12 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

Food in hotel + Good food - 1 cherry tomato with the fish? And cooked vegetables hiding under the fish?

"Excellent hotel not far from the centre"
This is an excellent hotel just south of the city. Breakfast was included in the price and there was plenty to eat. A free internet service is provided by the hotel although one or two of the computers were rather slow. Room cleaning was efficient. The hotel has dedicated taxis waiting outside and they offer trips both within Antalya and rather afield. […] We used the service to go to Duden waterfalls as well as Myra and Mt Olympos. An all day taxi seems to work out at around 300 - 350 TLR. Heading into Antlya it is an easy walk or a short journey on the tram. Hotel facilities include a swimming pool and a beach area accessed by a lift (there is no sandy beach but there are ladders to get to the sea). Both the pool and the beach have plenty of sunloungers, shades and a snack/bar service. Bar prices are very high but there are many local restaurants offering much lower prices. There is also a wine/beer shop opposite the hotel if you do not want to pay minibar prices. Rooms are spacious in the hotel with balconies facing the moutains and the Mediterranean sea. The tv has plenty of channels and many languages are covered. I have stayed in other hotels in Antalya and this is certainly the best one I have been to. 詳情Expedia 旅客真實的評價

I had a great stay at this Hotel. the location is great and use of the tramway was helpful to access most of the town sites. the room was very clean, breakfast great! very friendly staff at the restaurant, private beach and spa were amazing( very good masseuse knows her job) and warm beautiful hamam. Was dissapointed with the lounge sandwiches...tasteless […] and the state of the carpet in the common corridors. Would advise this hotel and going back 2 it in my next trip. 詳情Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Antalya Divan- Talya - Hotel"
This old hotel is perfectly located on the phalaises of Antalya ( rocks) with a faboulous view! You see the magnificent Toros mountains in the distance. On april 21, they still had snow on top... very dramatic views. Hotel is a but old, and tired in decoration. BUT the service is fantastic, everyone is pleasant and it was extremely comfortable, especially […] in our Suite number 610! Fab views in a corner balcony... I highly recommend this hotel in Antalya, and I am sure we will go again for a weekend break. But April, May, or October are the best months. June thru Sept is hot and expensive! Enjoy! 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Nice hotel with excellent gulf view...."
Great place close to the city center but need renovationExpedia 旅客真實的評價
"Totaly misleading"
The hotel location is not good at all. Yes, it is close to Kaleci (the old city), but the surrounding area is not attractive. The beach is not sandy -you just jumb in a very debt water from the concrete pier. The food except the breakfast is not good at all - only meat no vegeterian. Old hotel. Very modest gim with no airconditioning. Very expencive […] drinks. Litle done for evenening entertainment. 詳情Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"아름다운 해변에 위치"
위치는좋습니다.창문뒤로 바로 바다가보여서 베란다에서 경치감상하기도 좋구요.시내에서도가깝습니다 걸어서 유적지나 시내 곳곳을 돌아다니기에 좋습니다.다만 호텔급에비해서비스는좀 떨어지는듯합니다.슬리퍼도없고 치약도 없고 없는게 많네요.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Tolles Stadthotel am Meer"
Zu dieser Jahreszeit wenig los. Wunderschön gelegen mit direkten Blick zum Meer. Vom Hotel aus sofort in der Stadt zum shoppen und gut essen und trotzdem klares Wasser und ein tolles Meer.Expedia 旅客真實的評價
Flotte felles områder, resepsjon,basseng område,hav bad og spise lokaler. Flott frokost terasse m nydelig utsikt og god mat. Veldig gamle og slitte rom,men de var store og rene . De var nok flotte den gang hotellet var nytt men trenger nå en grundig oppussing. Fin utsikt fra balkongen. Rommene var nok mere 2 stjernes enn 5 som hotellet er oppført med. […] Vi bor gjerne her igjen selv om rommene ikke var topp. Kort vei til sentrum og flotte felles områder trekker opp. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Talles Hotel für alle Reisenden"
sehr individuelles Hotel, keine Massen Abfertigung, sehr freundliches personalExpedia 旅客真實的評價
"Inte fem stjärnor men överlag behaglig upplevelse"
Hotellet lever inte upp till kategoriseringen (5 stjärnor). Fin frukostbuffe. Receptionspersonal var inte alls seerviceminded, man fick vänta några sekunder vid disken för att få hjälp. Receptionister lyfte inte blicken från datorskärm förrän man sa något i stil med "ursäkta, får jag ställa en fråga?" Gratis 15-minuters behandling på inhouse SPA var […] OK, men SPA-upplevelsen inspirerade inte oss att boka upp någon annan treatment. Hotelets läge och badplats var de två aspekterna det var värt att betala överpriset för. Vi var inte missnöjda med vår vistelse, men hotellet levde inte upp till förväntningarna. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Fint hotell utenfor turiststtedet"
Vi tenkte WOW når vi kom til hotellet. Her ble vi møtte av en super serviceinstillt resepsjonist som tok i mot oss med et varmt hjerte! Her fikk vi 15 min gratis massasjekort (personlig, kunne ikke overskrives til noen andre) som kunne brukes i spa avdelingen. Når vi kommer opp på hotellrommer ble vi møtt av en ganske liten balkong som viste en helt […] fantastisk utsikt utover havet! Rommet var renselig og hadde masse håndkler, og noen som var store. Det var også såper som vi kunne bruke. Det sto gratis vann klart til oss som vi bare kunne drikke av. Hotellet haren egen privat klippe nede ved havet som de hadde gjort fint til med stige ned til det krystallklare vannet. Det lå også en resturant her nede som tilhørte hotellet. De hadde også et basseng med det var helt oppe ved hotellet, mens klippen lå en litten trappetur ned. området rundt var det ingen turister, så det var litt vanskelig å finne noen typsik resturant hvor man fikk kjøpt ordentlig middag. Men utrolige shopping muligheter! 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

We hadden een ruime, keurige kamer met koffie en thee service en een badgarnituur! Bij elk bezoek aan het zwembad of een duik in zee beneden, kreeg je een ruime schone handdoek.Het ontbijt was zeer royaal en we genoten van het uitzicht vanaf het terras.

Escaped Convict (Done)Re: Escaped Convict (Done)sweet pictures, the bike looks AWESOME with those 2 old roadsters... or whatever you want to call that kind of car.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)The one to the left is a 29 Duesenburg Model J and on the right is an Auburn Boattail Speedster Just thought you'd like to see a Rat bike with a couple Million worth of cars. I like the pipes too but there is a blurry spot in the pic.
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Just thought I'd throw in the rest of the pics I took.
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Note to self... Crazy barbed wire covered Theme Bike (NO) Build mean looking, lunch money stealing , Muscle Rat Mack Truck of a bike instead. (Karfer it was cool chatting with you last night. Awesome Bike my friend)
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Aaron I would vote your bike as the winner of the "Most Dangerous" category. "Danger is my middle name"-Your bike
"Every day is a build off"-Not Hugo http://www.howtofixbikes.ca http://takingpictures101.blogspot.com http://freebikebook.blogspot.com
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Strange part is the only time it is an issue (barbed wire) is when you try to pick up the bike to load it in the van or something.
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Hey Aaron, if there had been a category for the most creative you would have taken it hands down Great build !!!
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)lol yea that was fun. i bet your bike barbed wire and all is more comfortable to ride though at least for distance which is what the escaped convict is all about. a convict would not get too far on the ratty truck but they would look tough trying. ahhh the price to pay to be cool. awsome bike and i agree this should win for most creative theme

Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Thanks guys, Karfer you better stay on your game man, your really gonna have to pull out the stops to beat the next bike.. The Xena Warrior Princess Bike. And if you still win I get to say you beat up a girl!! Theme bikes don't seem to be popular as Rats but to me they are a heck of a lot of fun to build. Just adds that extra element of design and innovation which only adds to the fun. My wife is getting in on the Xena Bike. I asked her "Honey would you mind looking for stuff over the next few months to incorporate into the bike?" Asking a wife to shop .... she obviously agreed.
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)
And a heck of a lot of fun to watch being built!!! Of all the builds...yours and Fast Eddie's were the most entertaining for sure.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)Steve thanks, coming from the head Rat that means a lot. I think it's a shame Eddie didn't get to finish on time. The one that I most wanted to see was Gigs Pixie Bike... now that was a build thread!!
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)and most of us will never even see in person the cars that bike was photographed with!
over the years I have been to a ton of carshows and never seen a Dusenberg or an Auburn lol What I lack in pure craftsman skills I make up for in precision eyeballin
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)You know it's funny about those cars, I've been around them and others just as rare for so long I kind of take them for granted. I've ridden in both and driven others not quite as valuable but still out of my tax bracket. I waxed and polished that Duesenberg a few times.. she is an elegant machine. They belong to http://www.ohtm.org which is a mile from my house. I volunteer there and get to work on things most people never get to see. I have ridden in the oldest original (running) internal combustion vehicle possibly in the US an 1898 Leon Bollee
Leon Bollee was the first in France to build small gasoline powered vehicles, beginning to do so in 1895. This voiturette as he called it, was introduced in the 1896 Paris-Marseille-Paris race. With three speeds of 6-12-18 mph, it was one of the fastest of its type. In 1897 modified versions won the Paris-Dieppe race at 24 mph and the Paris-Trouville race at 28 mph. Specifications: tandem two-seat tri-car;engine four-cycle, single-cylinder,air-cooled, with hot tube ignition;bore 76 mm., stroke 145 mm., displacement 650 cc., 2.5 hp. This thing is cool and kind of a Rat in it's own right. Please look at the museums collection and if any of you ever come to my area let me know, you can take the Convict for a spin and I'll give the tour of the Museum and a ride in a Model T. Aaron Aaron
Keep in mind, I am an idiot.
Re: Escaped Convict (Done)iduno i am so drained by this build i think i may sit the next one out and watch you guys fight over it lol. but then again who knows maybe something will stumble across my path just waiting to be the next big thing who knows. but you should be very proud of your bike i swear one of my fav bikes to ride is my little 1/2 pint. nothing like the looks you get on a chopper 12 inch wheel bike with wheelie bars

Magnificent - All discussions
Topic started 4 years ago by Remy in Albums, singles, videos and songs. Since then 379 posts have been made by 102 users.Browse by page:
I'd completely forgotten about this song until I just whacked on the Rose Bowl DVD lol - only got it via. Amazon last week, now sitting down to watch it after coming back from Glasto. Sounding good so far -
Any chance they play it in New York? Guess not
I know, they're playing The omfg Fly instead, but Mag still is one of my favs, just like The Fly... -
RIP Magnificent </3 ahaha @Aiden I really like it too but i didn't notice it was missing at Anaheim 2 til days later -
It kind of amuses me that this was the one song just about everyone seemed to love when NLOTH was released (though I hated it) and now people seem to be realising that it's not that special after all (and I still dislike it, though the live version is better). -
I absolutely agree with you. I didn't really like it at first, and the live never worked for me, even the remix. I'm glad U2 finally stopped trying, it was hurting me to see them fail for 2 consecutive years.
It's a bit the same with Breathe, to me. I never really liked it, and the live never really worked for me. I'm glad it's gone too.
In the end, if U2 failed to have Magnificent be really good, maybe it's the song that's the problem, and not the band... -
I didn't even notice they stopped playing apart from Glastonbury. Was never a favourite of mine really and it didn't translate at all live apart from the lights for the opening. On the Rose Bowl DVD, the first time I saw it when Magnificent started and it shows the enormity of the stage I got goosebumps. But that was the stage rather than the song. -
Magnificent was my favorite on NLOTH when NLOTH was new to me, but it doesn't age well. I think it's the worst song on the album now. -
magnificent,better by design. -
I liked it the first time I heard it. I still like it. On the top half of the songs on the album for me -
I mainly really like it on the Rose Bowl Dvd still the intro looks AMAZING. After that its all dull imo... -
A good friend of mine likes it, one of the few U2 songs he likes. We always sing it when we're drinking XD -
Intro does it for me. Those huge swells. After that it never really goes anywhere but honestly it's worth that alone. Also, one of the Milan bootlegs from 360 has a literally ear-mazing version of it. Crowd carries the band.

Cutting Higher Education to fund flood relief is shortsighted
The higher education sector has been unfairly targeted to help fund the Federal Government's $5.6b expenditure to rebuild areas affected by the recent floods.
"The abolition of the Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) and the Capital Development Program to make savings of nearly $400 million in forward estimates is short sighted economic and political management", Jeannie Rea, National Tertiary Education Union President said today.
"While the NTEU fully understands the urgency of rebuilding flood affected areas and supports the levy, we question the wisdom of cuts to investment in other important nation building areas. Around 13% of the proposed spending cuts are coming from our universities, with climate change programs suffering even greater cuts."
"The abolition of the ALTC, which supports the continuous improvement of quality in university teaching through research, award and grant programs, is at odds with the Government's often stated commitment to improving teaching standards and student outcomes."
"While the environment is the biggest loser, our universities will find it more difficult to meet the Government's ambitious higher education participation targets. This decision raises serious questions about the Gillard Government's rhetoric on the critical importance of education to Australia's economic and social future, particularly in regional Australia."
"The loss of $300m in capital development funding will impact especially heavily on regional universities who have been the major recipients of this funding in recent years.
"The NTEU is asking the Prime Minister to reconsider asking our universities to make a disproportionately high contribution to the rebuilding effort and consider funding this unanticipated expenditure through the extension of the budget deficit for another year or two".
"What is more important", Jeannie Rea asked, "a small deficit by international standards or investment in our country's future?"
Go to Get Up! to vote for "Reversing the govt's decision to abolish the Australian Learning & Teaching Council"

User control panel -> Profile -> Edit signature -> Img and put your link of the pic between
Now, the link of the pic:
If your pic is already somewhere on the internet uploaded, right click on it and click on Copy image URL, and then paste between

Also, if you want to post a video from youtube, , go to the youtube box and post the link there.
Make sure the link is like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri7-vnrJD3k&ob=av2n

This goes for every link. So no matter how you're link looks like, in order for it to appear here, just remove all the things after &.
This is how a wrong link looks like
and this is how a good link looks like

I'm a new member but have been reading the forum for a few months. I'm the father of two teenage boys and 6 weeks ago we were blessed with a little girl. In some ways being a parent of a baby again after so many years is harder, but I think overall I enjoy it so much more becuase I'm not stressed about every little thing. The baby was unexpected but such a wonderful surprise.
I'm about 80% raw right now and have been for a little over a month. I decided it's about time to get healthy with a new baby. :) I was a member of another raw site, which will remain nameless, but decided it wasn't for me as they expect you to be 100% all of the time. That is my goal but it's just not possible right now. Hopefully some day. :)
Hope to be around for a long time!
