Royal Academy of Music, London (RAM)

«Elton John at the Albert Hall»

Great Britain,
Royal Academy of Music, Duke's Hall
«The Royal Academy of Music in London is internationally known and recognised as representing the highest values of music and musical society.»
- Daniel Barenboim, February 2010
At the behest of Her Majesty The Queen
The Royal Academy of Music (RAM) in London is one of the most renowned music academies worldwide. Each year it takes in as students some of the greatest young talents from more than 50 countries. Since its establishment in 1822, the RAM has produced numerous prominent musicians. Among these are for example the contemporary stars Sir Elton John (rock musician), Lesley Garret (soprano opera star) and Clifford Curzon (pianist). HM The Queen is the Patron of the RAM. The serving president is HRH The Duchess of Gloucester, wife of Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Her predecessor was HRH Diana, Princess of Wales.
A new organ for the Duke's Hall
The RAM has been looking for a new organ for the Duke's Hall since 2005. The 450-seat Duke's Hall is the main concert hall of the Academy. With its splendid décor the hall has a majestic appearance. It is a matter of course: the highest standards apply to the new instrument.
The evaluation procedure was complex and long. The organ builders from Kuhn were able to deliver their offer for the first time in 2006. Other well-known organ building companies from Great Britain and continental Europe were also in the running.
Benefit concert by Sir Elton John
For the funding, the committee had recourse to a typically English tradition: the new concert hall organ is to be funded by donations. To help raise funds the RAM has gained the support of one of its most famous alumni: Sir Elton John. With two very successful benefit concerts, one of them in the Royal Albert Hall in London, the majority of the funding is already assured. The support of the public and further sponsors is impressive.
Unanimous choice of the experts - infinite joy of the Kuhn team
Now there was nothing to block the decision to place the definitive order: the expert body decided unanimously in favour of a Kuhn organ. The joy of the new organ building team and the whole workforce is infinite. Another reason for joy and pride: the rise in expenses during the five year evaluation period, as a result of the strong Swiss franc, does not constitute an obstacle. Quality and a convincing concept had priority. Now it is up to Kuhn to live up to the very high expectations.
The fact that the Kuhn organ reflects and emphasises in its conception and design the interior design, the materials and the "emotional and physical heart" of the Duke's Hall, was certainly crucial for the decision. This global approach to architecture is one of the recognised specialities of the Kuhn company.
Design "à la française" interpreted in a modern way
The organ's design is in the French tradition, interpreted in a modern way. The front consists of several slim towers connected with intermediate flats; the case is of maple, a light wood, that radiates lightness and elegance. For the pipe shades we use a combination of fine metal lattices and rods.
The foundation of this sound concept is the double function of the II. Manual:
On the one hand it is similar to the French Bombarde division with strong reed stops and the Cornet, and it also has the necessary stops for a Positive. Two either complementary or alternating plenums and the necessary solo stops are available on the I. and II. Manual for the contrapuntal music of the 17th and 18th century. For even more variation in Trio and Cantus Firmus music the III. Manual can be used as well.
On the other hand the II. Manual is a supplement to the Great division and its choice of 8 ' stops. But with its own swellbox and the coupler III-II it can also be looked at as a partner or a counterpart of the Swell division.
This organ will have a dynamic range rich in different colours from pianissimo to fortissimo and will therefore also be just right for the music of the 19th and 20th century.
Scheduled completion: autumn 2013

Well, it's Thursday so that means it's request day again! Here's what I found for you this week:
Mona wanted an antique button card. So fun to use if you sell old buttons, or other tiny trinkets, just print onto cardstock and cut out!
Nikki & Flo's Diner requested something with a Coffee theme. Here's a cute Coffee bag!
And lastly Ellen had a wish for some quilting ladies. Aren't they cute?!!
That's all for this week. Do you have a request for an image? If so please leave it here in the comments section of my Request Day post, and then check back on Thursday to see if I found your requested image. Each week I go back and check under my Thursday posts to find what your looking for, it's so much easier for me that way. I'm afraid I'm a very disorganized Fairy, so if you email it to me I most likely will loose it or not be able to remember what you asked for. So sorry but I'm a complete mess when it comes to email!!!

You know how there are about 1 billion point and click/kill that monster/join that guild/ games out there? Such as Kal online, runescape, and such. The developers of these games must be robots programmed to make the exact same game with minor changes. THEY ARE SO BORING.:sleeping: I nearly choked to death on my dinner when I saw Runescape ever got an award.:surprise: My idea is a game somewhat like flyff, but no grinding boredom. There are no levels to gain, but simply higher ranks. The main point of the game is to join an airship crew, and fight other crews or enemy castles. There are 4 classes:
The Knight/Kinet: Simply a tank, powerful damage but inexperienced with flying.
The Wizard/Witch: Powerful magic spells, a good melee fighter but not excellent at sieging castles.
The Samurai/Ninja: Stealth master, with an invisibility special and bow mastery.
The Engineer: Fixes and builds airships, as well as making items(such as guns and siege machines. Castles beware.:w00t:
A player may ride on an airship(exactly the same as WoW but a player must control the wheel) and take flight from the deck.
This game should have graphics like Tribes 2 or Deus Ex, so it can work on 99% of all computers.
Note: No **** point and click, 3rd person shooter controls (such as Unreal championship).
Game idea, but I can't make it.(airships)

Reviewed by Automotive on 1/31/2013
The Jeep Wrangler has roots as far back as World War II, but it made its appearance in 1987 for the Chrysler company. After years of designs and upgrades, the Wrangler is currently in its third generation. As a rugged work horse and a miniature sports utility vehicle, the Wrangler is one of the most popular choices on the road. While there are some general safety concerns, these have been slowly improving. Overall, the Jeep Wrangler deserves its high esteem.
Jeep's continued evolution of the Wrangler brings better front and rear seats, extra interior lighting, and a standard auto-dimming rearview mirror. Soft tops are easier for one person to manage on Unlimited models, and a premium soft top is easier to clean and keeps the cabin quieter. A limited-edition Moab model based on the Sahara adds off-road touches but doesn't threaten the Rubicon's top-dog status.
The exterior of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler includes 17-inch painted alloy wheels on the Sport, Unlimited Sport, Rubicon, and Unlimited Rubicon models. The Sahara and Sahara Unlimited models come with 18-inch painted alloy wheels. The round headlights of the Jeep Wrangler remain stylistic and classic. Sahara and Unlimited Sahara models include painted finish bumpers and tube running boards. There are numerous color options for the Jeep Wrangler, many of which are a bit unconventional. Color options include several standard colors and crush clear coat, gecko pearl coat, and rock lobster clear coat.
The angles of the Wrangler make it look rough and rugged. When looking at the Wrangler from the side, it has a distinct boxy shape. The Wrangler comes in soft or hard tops. A premium soft top is available that helps reduce the amount of noise in the cabin, and it performs surprisingly well.
The 2013 Jeep Wrangler does not have as many standard features as the competition, but it still tends to be a popular vehicle among consumers. The seating in the Wrangler is comfortable, and there are options for adding leather upholstery and heated seats. The only drawback of the Wrangler seating is the rear seat, which is barely large enough for the average adult. Other interior features for the 2013 Jeep Wrangler includes lighting in the foot base and around cup holders for ease of navigating within the cabin. Other creature comforts include cruise control and audio and cruise control settings on the steering wheel.
The Jeep Wrangler comes standard with a six-speaker audio system that includes an AM/FM/CD radio with MP3 CD capabilities. Audi system also includes an auxiliary jack for integration with other audio devices. The Sahara and Unlimited Sahara models include a seven-speaker premium audio system by Alpine, which includes the addition of a subwoofer. Interior options include air condition and climate control. Other interior options are heated front seats, a smoker's grouping of options, and a UConnect CD/DVD/MP3 and navigation system, which integrates into the console. Air conditioning is standard in all Unlimited models. Overall, the interior is rugged, just as people have come to expect with the Wrangler.
In the two door Wranglers, there are 55 cubic feet of cargo room available by lowering the back seats. Without the seats lowered, the cargo room is around 17.2 cubic feet. In the Unlimited models, the total cubic feet with the rear seats folded down is around 70.6 cubic feet, while standard cargo space is 31.5 cubic feet.
The 2013 Jeep Wrangler comes standard with four-wheel anti-lock brakes, emergency braking assist technology, and electronic brake force distribution for powerful braking ability. Also standard on the Wrangler are supplemental front seat airbags and a passenger detection system. The passenger detection system will determine if a passenger is present and only deploy airbags if needed. Additional safety includes standard fog lights to aid in visibility, tire pressure monitoring system, and traction control.
A post-collision safety system also helps after the event of a collision. Also standard is an automatic dimming rear-view mirror, which reduces the amount of glare from other vehicles. Side airbags are an available option. The Sahara models of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler comes with an anti-theft alarm system to deter would-be thieves. Other than this, the Jeep Wrangler doesn't offer many safety features.
During crash testing conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the 2013 Jeep Wrangler received a three out of five star rating for overall rollover safety. This is expected from a vehicle that has the convertible option. This is especially true when applied to the soft top versions of the Wrangler. Unfortunately, the NHTSA and other traffic safety groups have not conducted other tests on the 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The Wrangler may not be the safest vehicle, but overall, it offers the standard in safety equipment without any frills.
There are four models for the 2013 Wrangler, and all of these models are going to offer slight differences in performance. That said, all models of the Jeep Wrangler feature a 3.6-liter, V-6 engine that produces 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. The estimated fuel economy for the Wrangler is 17/21 mpg city/highway. The Wrangler is available with automatic and manual transmissions.
The Wrangler is a fun drive, but the handling is a bit lackluster. Additionally, drivers and passengers are able to feel bumps on the road. The performance of the V-6 engine is more than enough to get the driver through most terrains, and when combined with four-wheel drive, the Jeep Wrangler is smoother off the road than on the road. As such, the cabin is very noisy and while the premium hard and soft tops available can help reduce noise, it is definitely still loud.

Levon Helm Midnight Rambles go on in Woodstock
Her surname suggests the inevitability of a life of music, but for Amy Helm her choices reflect creating her own musical voice as well as continuing the legacy of her music legend father.
Levon Helm died at age 71 in April 2012, but his signature Midnight Rambles continue, at the wish of the family and to the delight of fans, Helm said of this Saturday's event at the barn in Woodstock.
Jimmy Vivino will present "A Rockabilly Rumble at the Ramble," featuring Stray Cat Lee Rocker and Anton Fig with very special guests Robert Gordon, Marshall Crenshaw and Mr. Earl Slick at The Barn.
Doors open at 7 p.m., with the show starting at 8 p.m. Tickets are $85, $75 and $50. Go to www.levonhelm.com for more information.
Vivino was lead guitar for the Levon Helm Band for a number of years and serves as music director on the TBS late-night show "CONAN."
"Jimmy is like family. He's just an ace musician and anything he suggests is great," Helm said.
On Sunday at the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, Elton John and Mumford & Sons will pay tribute to Levon Helm. T Bone Burnett, Mavis Staples, Zac Brown and Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes will also perform "The Weight" at Sunday's awards ceremony in Los Angeles.
Amy Helm said the family is still working on details to continue presenting the now-famous Midnight Rambles, intimate performances by renowned musicians that she and father conceived, launched and perfected at his Woodstock studio and barn in 2004.
"The chemistry, humor and pride we shared on stage helped shape the Midnight Rambles into what they've become known for – a place to hear great music," Helm said.
Helm said the plan is to present the Rambles twice a month. Continued...
"We have some incredible artists lined up that we'll be announcing shortly," she said.
Helm's deep musical intuition was fostered, from her youth, by exposure to the best American musical traditions expressed across a broad range of musical styles.
"Not easy, not easy at all" is how Helm described her father's absence at the Rambles.
Helm said fans continually attend her solo shows and performances with the Dirt Farmer Band.
"It's extremely moving and continues to give me the courage of my convictions," Helm said, noting her father's connections to his fans.
"He had a symbiotic relationship with his fans that I think is unique. He was so happy creating a local and community-drive place for music lovers," Helm said, adding, "He was as happy playing on stage as he was sitting six rows back listening to a great band."
Asked about her father's influence on her life and music, Helm thought for a moment, then said, "When you lose a parent, everything they taught you becomes immediately apparent. This first year without him, every nuance gives depth to everything he taught me."
Helm said the family has determined to continue her father's legacy through the Keep It Goin' online campaign (www.levonhelm.com).
"We feel absolutely excited and driven to continue what he started - to make The Barn a musical landmark," Helm said.
Helm said the community is as much a part of that legacy as the family. Continued...
"This is a place that was filled with music when my father was alive, a place to make good music and a place to hear good music," she said.
Helm's powerful voice, which both stirs and soothes, whether singing traditional gospel, blues standards or her own compositions, will be featured in her first solo album due out this year.
"It doesn't have a title yet," she said laughing.
Helm said she co-wrote six of the songs with Byron Isaac who played bass with the Levon Helm Band for the last seven years.
"Byron is as amazing a songwriter as he is a musician," Helm said. "He is a prolific songwriter and I've learned so much as I get started."
Helm said her father is present, not just at the Rambles, but also on the CD.
"He plays a lot in the songs," Helm said. "We started making the CD two years before he got sick, so he's still such a part of my life through the music."
Helm will perform with her band at Helsinki Hudson, 405 Columbia St., Hudson, on Friday, March 1 (email@example.com).

Warm, cozy and stylish. I wish they were a couple of inches longer, but other than that, perfect.
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

These aren't great, but they aren't bad. A little too wide in the wrist/hand. Very simple knit, sort of plain and boring. The quality is just ok. But, they are warm and simple. I think I'll keep them mostly because I don't feel like making the effort to look for something else. They should do the job.

1. | cop a feel | ||
To feel on a woman's breasts or buttox; usually when she is not expecting it. Often followed up by a slap in the face. "Susan was looking so great that I got behind her in line and copped a feel, she immediately turned around and slapped me."
cop a feel images | |||
2. | cop a feel | ||
To feel up a girl when she isn't expecting it. Best time to do this is in a crowded area, so you can run off and can't be found. Then do it again. When I went to my family reunion, my 3rd cousin, once removed, was in a crowd and her juicy peaches were calling me, so I ran up, coped a feel and ran away to the punch table, 2 feet over.
3. | Cop a Feel | ||
(v.) To touch an individual in an intimate manner, usually with sexual intent. Such an act is usually done without the persons consent and is also frequently met with hostility and/or violence.
4. | cop a feel | ||
Unpredictable grabbing or touching of someone's private areas while acting innocent of action taken.
Mostly used for shock value or foreplay. A woman who is not your friend will usually find this very offensive and not humorous, however most men would enjoy receiving this action. While we were watching people dancing my friend said
" Don't dance close to that ass, he will try to cop a feel." |
5. | cop a feel | ||
To caress a woman without her consent and then immediate get the beat down. I copped a feel of Jessica. I've never hurt so much in my life...
6. | Cop A Feel | ||
It routes from the word "Cop". It's pretty much like when a cop frisks you, they are touching you without consent. So when someone cops a feel they simpily feel someone up with out consent. The urban version only implies the feeling of genitalia and breast regions. It usually happens in crowded areas. I'm going to cop a feel at this rave and get a handful of tiggle bitties from some broad
7. | cop a feel | ||
When a Police Officer or other authority figure representing a government or private entity searches you by using his or her hands. This is usually done to hot, boobular females by both male authority figures and females who would rather the touch of a woman's body to that of a man's. In most cases after cop a feel is completed the female and or male being "copped" is let go unless a serious felony has occurred. "Cop a feel's" usually only occur when an authority figure is bored and or horny. Barbara felt kinda turned on when the female police officer pushed her over the trunk of her car, spread her legs and did an in depth cop a feel.

Don't Kill Our Dogs, We'll Move—Again, Couple Says
Susan and Gary Kolb willing to relocate from Oak Ridge home to be reunited with animals, save them from possibly being euthanized.
A Jefferson couple whose two 100-pound African Boerboels have been deemed "potentially dangerous" said they are ready to move for a second time if it means getting the dogs back and saving them from possibly being euthanized.
Susan and Gary Kolb said because of "tremendous hostility" by "certain individuals in the Township of Jefferson," they asked their attorney to propose them moving "to an agreed upon location if the Township drops their complaint and returns the dogs," the couple said in an email sent Friday night to several local media organizations.
The Oak Ridge couple had been given until last Thursday to decide if they would forfeit the dogs to the township or risk the animals being put down. However, their appearance in Jefferson Municipal Court was postponed until Oct. 25.
The Kolbs signed an agreement to sell the dogs to a buyer in Los Angeles after three alleged incidents near their previous home in Jersey City, but then refused to give up the dogs and were held in contempt of court in 2010, according to the Daily Record.
In October 2011, the Kolbs agreed to move the dogs to their current residence in Oak Ridge. State law required specific fencing, an enclosure and signage be erected at the home, and the dogs could only be out in public if muzzled and secured on 3-foot leashes.
According to Jefferson Police, the Kolbs were cited in October 2011 for walking the dogs without a muzzle near their Summer Walk Circle home.
The couple claims they are "innocent of all charges and that this is a misunderstanding."
The Kolbs also owe the town approximately $10,000 for housing the dogs since last October, according to municipal officials. The dogs, Jumba and Imani, spent part of the last year at the Jefferson Pound and currently reside at Woofs N Whiskers in Andover.
Susan Kolb has disagreed with the amount they owe because the family brings the dogs food each day. However, Jefferson Mayor Russell Felter said the charge is for the facility's daily boarding fee.
Safety concerns have been raised after the dogs allegedly knocked over a woman and her grandchild in 2008 and allegedly bit two people, including one man in the groin, in 2009. However, Susan Kolb said her dogs were not at fault in any of those Hudson County incidents.
Kolb also trusts the dogs with her 19-year-old autistic son, Arthur.
"It's a proven fact how much animals can help autistic people," Kolb said. "Arthur isn't really capable of holding long conversations, but he can have a friendship with an animal. He isn't able to have that with his peers."
The Kolbs have established a website, savenjdogs.com, and have raised more than $4,000 since May 23 toward their goal of $20,000 for the "Jumba and Imani Defense Fund."
Susan Kolb said her family doesn't understand why they have been "put in the Biblical position of giving up custody of the dogs or having the dogs killed."

There is hostility, Susan and Gary, because you have disobeyed TWO DIFFERENT court orders and think you are above the law. Total disregard for the safety of others also is bound to make your neighbors pretty unhappy as well. This "all about me" attitude was bound to bite you (much like your dogs are capable of doing) in the you-know-where sooner or later. It's like you think it is your world and we're just a part of it. Doesn't work that way and there is no way your dogs aren't dangerous.
7:46 am on Monday, October 15, 2012
Jefferson Township please do NOT do what Jersey City did and let this problem become a problem for another town, nip it in the bud here and now. This breed of dog belongs in the home of someone well versed & knowledagle of breed. I certainly feel for the dogs because they are being punished due to owners irresponsibility.
They are quite charming when not being lazy, and will not hesitate to defend their loved ones to the death. This dog is possibly the most protective mastiff breed and, unlike many other mastiff breeds, is more likely to attack rather than attempt to intimidate an intruder.

I hate to comment, but I feel like I should say something. First of all, it sounds like the dogs knocked someone down in Jersey City, well the dogs are HUGE! They may not be well trained to not jump. Sounds like their neighborhood isn't exactly a large dog kind of property. They should have their property, or a yard fenced in to accomodate their dogs or move. I am an animal person... so I would NEVER give up my animals and find an agreement to work out the problem. The alleged bites aren't facts of the dog attacks. Dogs are family members. Do they put down criminals for their wrong doings? Find a way to work this out!
12:14 pm on Monday, October 15, 2012
Elisa..I have pets myself. The fact they knocked over a grandma holding her grandcild shows the owners do not kno how to control these dogs. Alleged bites???? Nothing alleged about it they bit a man in his groin.
Had they complied with the original court order issued in Jersey City they would not be in this spot.
And yes sadly once again dogs pay the price for having stupid owners
7:53 am on Monday, October 15, 2012
UGH..too early that should say " knowledgeable"~~~~
9:26 am on Monday, October 15, 2012
How many times is this family going to relocate because they can't live up to the agreement they plead to? Every time they have a problem they move? It would be ridiculous if the courts allowed that option again. If you read "Our Story" on their website it is clear that they do not take responsibility for the dogs or knowing how to care for them. The just complain how much it has cost them and ask for money. They state the dog took off the muzzle and they they didn't know which type of muzzle was better because no one told them. Please if you really want to keep the pups you would have done the research to learn everything there was to know about how to follow the terms of the plea deal you signed. You should not have to be told how to do it you should ask the questions yourself. They also claim several times the animals did not hurt anyone, anyone ask the man that was bitten in the groin if he was hurt. If you read the latest blog post on the site not only is it creepy it also shows they are just looking for a way out that is best for them, everyone else is to blame they are faultless. The so called hostility of this town may be perceived by them because they are nuts.

Susan and Gary, If you want a family dog, how about a lab or golden?!
3:52 pm on Monday, October 15, 2012
At this point it is not really about the behavior of the dogs. If the owners had complied with the agreements in their plea deal then none of this would be an issue. I am a dog lover and if I was in their position and was able to agree to a deal to keep my dogs, you better believe that I would make sure I was following the rules at all time so that I could keep my dogs. I agree with the other comments, they feel as thought they are above the law.
8:52 pm on Monday, October 15, 2012
"We are accused of a crime which defies logic, or motivation."
X - logic, court order says muzzle them, no muzzle, pretty logical. Motivation, to protect people from getting hurt.
No I'm not pretending to know the details but to argue logic and motivation doesn't make sense.
I wonder if their lawyer advised against the stories on their website. "It was dark, too dark for me to see to immediately replace the muzzle. And I was concerned that there were bears in the area."
You either intended to put the muzzle back on because it was dark or you didn't intend to because of the bears. You can't argue both sides of the coin on this one.
"when I was confronted by a policeman in an unmarked car that was parked in an unlit, wooded area at 6 am"
Unmarked cars don't typically hang out in unlit wooded areas unless they are running radar or they had a complaint and are trying to catch someone doing the thing that was being complained about. Who is Baldwin?

Dear Neighbor
Thanks so much for your message. We want our neighbors to ask questions.
First of all - it wasn't garbage day.
But in their story they say: "Again, this was at 5:30 in the morning on garbage collection day"
The prosecutor can have a field day w/ them based on their own website. They are either not getting quality legal advise ro choosing to ignore it.
9:02 pm on Monday, October 15, 2012
It's a shame really. Looking at the videos, they seem like loving creatures that just need a bit more training. Ive hada dog that is either Matiff or has a lot of Mastiff in it. They are absolute mushes, but when you can't keep your story straight on your own website, it's not doing the animals any favors in court for sure and makes everyone suspicious. :(

CSS Transition bug in Safari 5.0.3
im using css transtions on a site and they are behaving oddly on Safari 5.0.3. Anyone else having this kind of issue?
The initial and hover states work fine but after you mouse out, some of the original properties are lost or the regular and hover states are mixed together...idk whats goin on. but only in Safari 5.0.3....??
FYI i am using the transition on a submit button. with borders, border radius, and BG gradients on both normal and hover states..(im on a macOSX, did not test in PC)
hope someone can shed some light on this issue
-necoOne thing to note is that i have a flash object present on my page. The strange thing is that when i set the "display" of the flash container to "none" the CSS Transition behaves perfectly. I don't get it.
Anyone know why flash would be disrupting the CSS Transition?Hmm... without looking at the page it's hard to say but I'll try a guess.
Transitions and flash do not like each together. Flash doesn't like rounded corners either. Transitions and rounded corners both use opacity to achieve their effects. If you have one on top of the other it could cause problems (like a rounded submit button on a flash background or something).
If you use an iframe for your flash, or you switch to html5 if possible, it should fix the problem.thanks man, this kinda worked. Previously i had some flash content running below my transition buttons. I separated the flash from the buttons and they work better -
HOWEVER, they only work correct initially. After i try to hover over them multiple times they eventually start to 'lag' again.
iframe didn't really work nor did changing the !DOCTYPE, but having the transitions occur on elements above flash content seemed to be the most troublesome issue.
It's half resolved at the moment but I'd still like to find out more about why flash is causing the disruption to my transitions...

I wouldn't mind if they wrapped up Ash's story, but that doesn't seem likely since he placed top 8 this region and will probably place top 4 next time, meaning he's gonna be staying for a long time.
But the females always get developed along with Ash. That's the difference.
In Paradise with Iris and her Pokemon!
He has a higher chance than Iris, but I don't know. It seems mostly females of this show have to always be replaced. Maybe they'll keep Cilan around for 4 regions like Brock. I'm sure Cilan stans would be elated 4 life.
Best friends forever, Sisters at heart ♥
Very very high.
In my eyes, they're high. I believe he might stay for another region or two.
Pesky forum trolls
I still don't get why Ash can't get a maid as a sidekick, bonus points if she/he is massive with superpowers and supernatural hair.
Extremely low given that his dreams are already within reach. Unlike Ash's previous caretaker (Brock), Cilan doesn't have to travel with Ash for almost a decade since he knew from the start what he wanted to be and he worked toward that goal even before he met Ash. Iris has a higher chance of staying in the main cast due to her goal being far off.
Really high chance he hasnt gotten much into his Connosuier thing and i would like to see him work to be a S class also he doesnt have many pokemon really. also i would love for him to be the one to enter contest in the region if they bring them back
I suppose it would depend on what the potential replacements would be like
"It is a capital mistake to theorize
before one has data. Insensibly one
begins to twist facts to suit
theories, instead of theories to suit
Current Black 2 team
That's because he's so close to becoming an S-Class Connoisseur already that there's really no point in giving him tons of episodes that revolve around it. He's much more of an "entertaining" character who does random stuff because he can. Unlike Iris, he doesn't have to deal with the constant pressure that comes from not being close to one's goal.
None of them besides Ash should stay. When a sidekick stays too long their fans develop an entitlement complex.
They need to get rid of cilan asap
He is so awkward in the dub, and his character makes no sense to the western audience, what in the hell were the writers thinking!
Cilan only appeals to the japanese audience, simple as that.

I'd like to see Ash traveling with the 6th gen male protagonist and sort of teach him the ropes and maybe they each partake in gym challenges and have Ash playing a true teacher role to this kid (he di the same to May & Dawn but he wasn't involved in contests so having him focus on teaching his new friend how to do gyms would really cement their role in the show) whilst the girl companion is an in-game character (maybe the female protag? not necessarily a gym leader) with a more focused Brock/Cilan-like goal...
I don't think it's likely knowing this show's idea of development for Ash, but I'd prefer it over Cilan sticking around, just to mess with the formula a little bit. As much as Best Wishes has changed many things, the group dynamics are still the same: the other male in the group is pretty superfluous to the storyline and is only around for knowledge, entertainment & sticking to the "trio" formula the show has going on. Unless his role is stepped up and he's given some importance, I'll remain indifferent to Cilan sticking around even though I know it's pretty likely.
Thank you to Sworn Metalhead for the banner! Much appreciated!

Comments On Mar 13, 2013:Looked like a great product! I loved the look and it looked like it was well designed. I was a little unhappy with the size, got the adult size, im skinny 5'9 tall and it was very small on me. i hate to give it a bad review just because i didnt agree with the size of it but... And of course rocky mountain took care of the problem and sent me a different chest protector. rocky mountain rocks!

Comments On Jul 17, 2012:this is a good roost deflector, but i am 6 foot 3, and it is very short on me. it works well with my evs neck brace. the only problem with this is the size. i would not recommend this roost deflector if youre taller than 5'10 or so. otherwise, buy it

Comments On Jul 09, 2012:This chest protector is very light and comfortable. I'm 6' 180# and this fit just fine, even with my EVS neck brace. The buckles are a little finicky compared to traditional buckles, but I never had mine come undone while wrestling my bike around on the trail. The only complaint is the lack of shoulder protection, I have found that my style of riding (and crashing) requires something that covers my shoulder. Wish they made shoulder armor that bolted to this chest protector.

Dear men and women of the cloth,
Not much time for greetings. I have been seeing you on TV screens and Newspapers and I can presume I know how you are doing.
Speaking of TV and Newspapers, something has come to my attention which I wish to address to you who were hitherto shepherds of the breed we call the people of Kenya.
On the 4th date of August 2010, Kenyans of all walks went to polling stations. They had been told to choose the destiny of their beloved country – to vote for a new constitution. This was a pill which would heal the wound of the past and make the road hereafter much smoother for them. It was a special token that the people had sought for very many years. Recently, it has been reported that the search has lasted 20 years but from my basic history, this quest began at independence. Your sheep had been conned and disenfranchised that early. (more…)

Great Swim shorts
I bought these shorts in orange. Great color and incredibly comfortable shorts. Well done again TB! Mine were true to size
March 13, 2013
Too big for the size stated
The waist size measures 40"...but I ordered a 38" Waist. Does that mean I need to order a 36" to get a 38"? What am I to do with this now, as it does not fit me?
March 4, 2013
I like the fact the logo is on the side of the shorts. There is a print on the side of the shorts that adds to the design.
I am a Tommy Bahama enthusiast. Each season the new designs still keep me intrigued. I have to limit myself from buying too much.
I have several shorts from last season; I really enjoy the quick drying material. I know I will enjoy all of my shorts for years to come.
Thank you....

Love them on hubby
They appear to run a little big but no problem just exchanged for smaller size since he liked them sooo much,

13) Read a classic novel
-The most difficult thing -- but an essential one -- is to love life, to love it even while one suffers. Because life is all. Life is God. And to love life means to love God. -Drat that boy, interposed my sister, frowning at me over her work, what a questioner he is. Ask no questions, and you'll be told no lies. -The proof of the pudding is in the eating. All quotes from classic novels, but can you tell from which ones? There are many great novels but few would be widely regarded as a classic. Research a recommended novel, or find a novel that you hear about but have never read, and go and read one. Try these classics (they are also the answers to the quotes) War and Peace - Count Leo Tolstoy, Great Expectations - Charles Dickens, and Don Quixote - Miguel de Cervantes.

The NCAA Division II Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is celebrating its eighth annual division-wide Make-A-Wish Foundation fundraising campaign this year by launching its first Week of Wishes campaign.
All Division II institutions will be invited to host a Make-A-Wish event during the week of Feb. 18-26 to raise funds and awareness.
"The Division II SAAC has worked tirelessly over the last year and a half to develop a new initiative that would enhance the current alliance between Division II and the Make-A-Wish Foundation," said Hilary Cox, chair of the Division II SAAC and senior softball student-athlete at North Georgia.
"This grass-roots community relationship encompasses every attribute Division II stands for and aligns with our strategic plan. We are hoping that through the Division II's Week of Wishes campaign, we can raise national awareness to our ongoing sponsorship of the Make-A-Wish Foundation."
As part of the campaign, Division II friends and family across the country will have the opportunity to donate on behalf of their favorite Division II institution through a customized Division II Make-A-Wish web portal at www.wish.org/NCAADII. All donations will help further the Make-A-Wish vision to grant the wish of every eligible child and help Division II reach its goal of raising $500,000 for the Foundation this year.
"NCAA Division II student-athletes have been great advocates for our wish kids, quietly raising significant funds to help us reach more kids with life-threatening medical conditions each year and grant them life-changing wishes," said David A. Williams, president and CEO of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of America and a former Division II student-athlete from Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania. "We are excited to team with them and grow the new Week of Wishes campaign to include more schools and participants across the country."
Many schools have already contributed to the 2011-12 campaign. They include:
To see more campaign stories from Division II institutions, go to Facebook.com/NCAADivisionII.
The Make-A-Wish fundraising campaign is an integral part of the overall Division II "Life in Balance" philosophy. Division II was the first NCAA division to sponsor a division-wide community-service campaign, and during 2010-11, Division II institutions and student-athletes raised more than $405,000 for the Foundation. Over the previous seven years, the Division II SAAC has raised more than $1.9 million, helping to grant many wishes for courageous kids.

Four more Ohio districts removed poor-performing students from their rolls, including two in the Tri-State, state Auditor David Yost said Monday in the final step of his investigation into a practice whereby schools attempted to improve performance ratings.
More than 70 schools or districts also had attendance reporting errors, though these didn't appear to be purposeful, Yost said.
The four districts bring to nine the number that Yost has identified in his investigation of the data withdrawal practice known as "scrubbing."
The districts Yost identified Monday are Canton and Cincinnati city schools, Winton Woods city schools in Hamilton County and Northridge Local schools in Montgomery County.
Yost's top recommendation Monday was requiring the state to peg school funding on yearlong attendance figures to encourage attendance through the entire year. Now, attendance figures are based on a count in October.
"Importantly, schools that break enrollment under such a system would suffer a loss of funding as a result," Yost's report said.
Cincinnati's superintendent, Mary Ronan, said an internal investigation found no wrongdoing by district employees and said the issue was the result of 12,000 student withdrawals annually.
"Such mobility, as the Fordham Foundation noted in a recent report, negatively impacts student achievement," Ronan said. "We believe that the need to stabilize families and decrease mobility merits a state and community focus."
Yost also said the state should require independent oversight of districts' data reporting instead of the current honor system, and the state should also independently monitor transfers by at-risk students.
