Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10 Pro Earphones Gun Metal Blue with Roadie Case
" Ok first of all I will be using my Sansa Clip as my source as I feel an iem should always be tested with portable sources. I paid $200AUD for them brand new, which is dirt-cheap by Australian standards. I do not believe in burn in, especially for armature drivers - owning and listening to many iems has shown me burn-in is just a mental phenomenon where the brain adjusts to a new sound..." --ProjectDenz
Ultimate Ears In-Ear Reference Monitors
"I wonder why UERM is often disregarded when picking from $1000 range. I'm guessing that it's due to "only" having 3 drivers, versus having 8 drivers per side. I can say with confidence that driver number does not equal sound quality(for the most part). Another reason I see why UERM might not be picked is its sound sig. It's perfectly flat. Personally, I love this. Reference sound with..." --kimvictor
Ultimate Ears 700 Noise Isolating Earphones
" I bought the earphones about 8 months ago and used them maybe twice or thrice a week. While I cannot complain about the sound quality, everything else is a bit off. My cable got damaged on it's entry to the jack (I'm using the earphones with my smartphone, which sits in my jeans pocket) so I had to return in to Logitech (on the bright side, Logitech agreed to replace it no questions asked)...." --dvnitycker
Ultimate Ears 500
"My current set. My favorite and my private oasis. These beauties will cut out most if not all ambient noise like while driving in a car and household noise when the music is flowing. I became a fan of music all over again when I bought a pair of UE 350's at Best Buy at a discounted price. I was drawn by the nice packaging of the artists on the outside wearing UE's. I was blown away at the..." --echo1284
UE 11 Pro
" This is my very first pair of custom IEMs after trying almost all of the high end universal IEMs -- SE530, UE Super Fi 10, Etymotics etc. The sound of these UE11 Pros is superior in every way to all of the universal ones I had, but even more important they stay in my ear and provide a proper seal. Since my ear canals get very narrow, I found it very difficult to get any of my universals to..." --alyanm
Ultimate Ears UE6000 Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones
" These headphones are awesome, bought it in London and happy with it! Cool looking, good sound quality! Bass: I'm a basshead and I love the bass in the active mode and in passive mode it becomes neutral just like the sennheiser momentum Mids: sounds very good with vocal, little recessed in active mode Treble: can't say much, a little to non-sibilance depents on the song! Noise..." --minhquancanon7d
UE 18 Pro
" I had owned the UE-10's before this for about 3 years. So upgrading to these was a huge improvement in my opinion. Very nice full sound, with improved frequency response from 20 Hz to 18,000 Hz. Bass is much more present on these but not too overly stated. Gorgeous build quality. Very happy with these In ear monitors, I also own the JH-16's and still love listening to these all the time on..." --Richard Devine
Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10 Noise Isolating Earphones
" Introduction and initial impressions: Bought them over a month or 2 back for the lols and now they are my regular for my daily commute. I have used them with a fairly wide variety of audio devices, Iphone 3g(Objective 2,FiiO E6 and E11), Sony Z series(briefly), Ipod touch 4g, Sony BDP-S380(w O2), Creative X-Fi HD(O2). Initially, I thought the TF10s were terrible, sound felt unnatural..." --firev1
Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi Noise Isolating Earphones w/ Microphone
"Reason for choosing these: I bought these as my Shure SE215 were stolen. I prefer an earphone which fits within the shell of the ear, which has good isolation and which is designed to allow the cable to route up and over the ears. This is for comfort, convenience while active, and to avoid or minimise conduction of noise via the cable "microphonics". I want to be able to walk and listen..." --julian67
Ultimate Ears UE4000 Headphones
"These days, for $40, there's just not too many good choices out there. I feel the UE4000 should be a role-model for all the companies wanting to win this market. First of all, this headphone has an amazing set of features for $40 which includes a detachable cable (super rare), not fully plastic (metal sliders, good foam for the headband), a carrying pouch, a high-quality..." --SonyMDRer

If you wore a ball gown and a tiara, people would first think you were a drag queen

Wow, that was quick! I haven't even bought a ticket myself as I am waiting for Notables tickets to possibly go on sale. If not, I'll splurge on a good seat, but can't shell out $$ now. And you definitely do not need a ball gown & tiara. A couple concerts I attended at CH in the last few years (including JDD's debut at Stern Aud) seemed fairly casual. ABT comparison seems good though

Err, I have a habit of acting on impulse. And I tend to think if I don't act quickly, I may miss an opportunity. So I got a ticket last night.
I'm in dress circle. Please, somebody join me!
Somewhat late with my review of I Due Foscari at the LA Opera, which I saw a few weeks ago. This is such a rarely produced opera that it is more of a curiosity. From what I've read, this was the first production in the US in approximately 40 years, though it should get some play with next year being the bicentenniel of Verdi's birth. The music was quite beautiful, showing a lot of the elements you expect from Verdi, but the story and the libretto was extremely bitter and cynical. (It was written shortly after Verdi's wife and both their infant children died.)
The production itself was stunning and the performances were excellent across the board, with Placido Domingo performing the baritone role of the older Francsesco, Francesco Meli as his son Jacopo, and Marina Poplavskaya as Jacopo's wife, Lucrezia. I know a lot of people don't like Poplavskaya's voice, but I really liked it for this role and particularly enjoyed the power of her voice. The LA Master Chorale also was used to great effect as the evil Venetian council. My only nits were that Meli and Poplavskaya had a tendency to overpower Placido at times. I love Placido and his voice is utterly amazing for his age, but he does not have the same power that he once had so he is more restrained in how loudly he sings at times. The other issue is that Lucrezia was so fiery and angry that it was hard to view her as powerless. She was such a strong presence that it was hard to believe that she would really be prevented from following Jacopo to where he was exiled.
I wouldn't be surprised if this production winds up being performed in several other cities next year as part of celebrations of Verdi's birthday.
Next up is Don Giovanni, which I am thrilled to hear is a new production. We have been getting the same turgid revival at the LA Opera for ages, and this one has received nice reviews.
Thanks for the review! I didn't like Poplavskaya in La Traviata, but was pleased with her in Faust last season. It seemed that she too was much more pleased with her Margueritte than Violetta, so perception could depend on the role she sings.
Are you going to catch Angela Meade in Don G? I am thinking about getting this new Don G CD (dream cast?) http://www.amazon.com/Don-Giovanni-I.../dp/B008AS5UAO
Marge, PM me your seat for JDD recital!
lurking and delurking
Unfortunately I didn't write it down, and the email confirming my order just lists the section, not the seat. Hopefully they will mail the ticket quickly and I can tell you the exact seat.
I saw her in La Traviata also, and have virtually no memory of her. So I guess that tells you how much I liked her then. It is funny how much of a difference a role can make. I can think of several performers who I thought were incredible or terrible after seeing them in one role, only to have a completely different view after seeing them in another role.
Yep. I had to check, because I wasn't sure which of the sopranos was singing the night I had tickets, but we are scheduled for one of Angela Meade's two shows. That should be fun. I'm also really excited to see D'Arcangelo, because I had a last-minute work conflict last season, missed him in Cosi Fan Tutti, and had to listen to my mom and stepfather rave about the production for weeks.Are you going to catch Angela Meade in Don G?

Agreed! Also, a role a particular singer WANTS to sing may not necessarily be the one they SHOULD sing. Casting is another case (*ahem* Mme Netrebko in current Met's Elisir)
Lucky! But then again, I haven't heard her Donna Anna, so she may or may not be great in the role... although I am positive she'll do fab!I had to check, because I wasn't sure which of the sopranos was singing the night I had tickets, but we are scheduled for one of Angela Meade's two shows.

Speaking of D'Arcangelo's surely Don G, have you seen this short clip that JDD recorded last year during the above CD's rehearsals/concerts?

Also easily lead astray here. I ordered a Dress Circle ticket for Joyce D, so Marge, anyone else, you will have company.
Excellent! I got my ticket, I am in Row BB, Seat 40.
SaSherka, you must get a ticket ASAP.
Who is in for dinner after the show?
Incidentally, this has given me the push I needed to start sewing with the lovely brocade fabric I bought over the summer. So expect to see me in a slinky skirt.

Saw Anna Bolena with Sondra Rodvanovsky at the WNO last night.
Whatever one may say about the individual singers, in its totality it was great and earned a full standing ovation from the audience. It had incredible drama and really brought the best out of the music. I was on the edge of my seat! Comparisons are odious, my mother always said, and I only saw the Met in the Live in HD, but this had what that lacked. It was exciting.
I'm not sure I like Sondra R's voice but she so took control and brought incredible drama to her portrayal. Most of the other singers were decent or better. I particularly liked Sonia Gonassi who sang well and was very moving as Jane Seymour.
Score another one for the Washington Opera!
Its also really fun to go to the Kennedy Center.
I am happy that its over. Happy that I did well. Yu Na Kim
I have to wait with my ticket purchase, but I assure you I'll be there one way or another!
I may be going down just for the day, so will need to catch a bus back after the concert and CD signing (you bet I am getting my CD signed, along with a few other JDD fans I know )
lurking and delurking
SaSherka, have you bought a ticket yet?
Could not find the thread post-FSU update!
Just bought a pair of 2nd row center parquet seats! Who wants to upgrade their ticket or invite a friend??? $61 with fees. Unfortunately, the $20 tickets I was hoping for are all in the Balcony, but there have been a number of returns in the orchestra, so I decided to splurge.
ETA: How rude of me! How are you dealing with the Sandy aftermath??? Hope you got spared. A lot of my friends were or still are without power.
Last edited by SaSherka; 11-05-2012 at 09:22 PM.
I'm fine, and you aren't rude.
I'm crossing my fingers that the performance is not cancelled - AFAIK, 57th Street is still blocked off. But if they are still selling tickets, I guess that's a good sign.
Are we doing dinner afterwards?
And BTW, would you use a clutch bag if you had one?
I bought the tickets with hope that the performance is going to happen. If it is cancelled, I am sure CH will automatically refund tickets. If it's postponed, I hope it's for another weekend. Most likely no dinner or a very quick one for me as I'll have to catch the 6 or 6:30pm bus back.
Clutch? Sure
I just found out my friend Peter is also going, sitting at the other end of the row I'm in. We'll have a real entourage going soon.
Do not think this will be cancelled. I believe the crane has now been secured and people are being let back into the area.

Great news! One big step toward the reaching the dream of finishing the documentary about my grandmother and the woman's suffrage movement was accomplished this week with the news that the Puffin Foundation has awarded $1200 toward the completion of the work. Don't put away your pens. This doesn't count toward the Kickstarter campaign that is underway until the beginning of June. However, it's a huge leap forward, and one that strengthens my dream of having the news of Edna's suffrage campaign wagon spread to large numbers of people.

It isn't surprising that investors find themselves asking, "What happens when yields go up?" Yields on the 10-year Treasury note peaked at 15.6% in October 1981 and have declined—albeit unsteadily—ever since. As of February 2013, the yield was down to 2%. Yields could stay low for a while, but it looks as if a 12- to 24-month investment horizon may include the onset of tightening by the Federal Reserve and an increase in short-term interest rates.
In response, investors have been stampeding into various types of fixed-income investments with floating- or adjustable-rate features, on the assumption that these investments will help them when rates rise. While adjustable- or floating-rate features can be attractive, we urge investors to be cautious. This paper provides some background on these investment options to help investors make an informed decision about the role they should play in a portfolio.
We do not believe rates are going to rise before the end of the year, meaning that it may be too soon to consider floating rates over fixed rates. Also, because investment results will depend critically on determining whether the spread will be fair if rates do rise, we think investors should be very cautious and diligent in doing credit analysis on the issuers of these instruments to be comfortable with the spread they receive over the reference rate. It's not just a matter of determining whether the spread today seems fair but whether the spread in the future will continue to be fair as economic conditions change.

The figure of Hamlet haunts our culture like the ghost haunts Shakespeare's melancholy Dane. Arguably, no literary work is more familiar to us. Everyone knows at least six words from Hamlet, and most people know many more. Yet the play—Shakespeare's longest—is more than "passing strange," and it becomes even more complex when considered closely.
Reading Hamlet alongside other writers, philosophers, and psychoanalysts—Carl Schmitt, Walter Benjamin, Freud, Lacan, Nietzsche, Melville, and Joyce—Simon Critchley and Jamieson Webster go in search of a particularly modern drama that is as much about ourselves as it is a product of Shakespeare's imagination. They also offer a startling interpretation of the action onstage: it is structured around "nothing"—or, in the enigmatic words of the player queen, "it nothing must."
From the illusion of theater and the spectacle of statecraft to the psychological interplay of inhibition and emotion, Hamlet discloses the modern paradox of our lives: how thought and action seem to pull against each other, the one annulling the possibility of the other. As a counterweight to Hamlet's melancholy paralysis, Ophelia emerges as the play's true hero. In her madness, she lives the love of which Hamlet is incapable.
Avoiding the customary clichés about the timelessness of the Bard, Critchley and Webster show the timely power of Hamlet to cast light on the intractable dilemmas of human existence in a world that is rotten and out of joint.
Praised Be Rashness
This little book is the late-flowering fruit of a shared obsession. Although Hamlet makes himself crystal clear during his lambasting of Ophelia, "I say, we will have no mo marriage," we are married, and Shakespeare's play, its interpretation, and philosophical interpreters have been a goodly share of our connubial back and forth over the last couple of years. We are outsiders to the world of Shakespeare criticism and have chosen as a way into the play a series of outsider interpretations of Hamlet, notably those of Carl Schmitt, Walter Benjamin, Hegel, Freud, Lacan, and Nietzsche. What each of these interpretations enables is a bold but -sometimes distant and rash take on Hamlet. We will try to use these interpretations as a set of levers with which to twist open a closer and, we hope, compelling textual engagement with the play itself. Not that we are above rashness ourselves, and if an approach shapes our interpretation, that we might dupe the reader by calling a methodology, then it takes its cue from Virginia Woolf. In her wonderful essay "On Being Ill," she writes:
Rashness is one of the properties of illness—outlaws that we are—and it is rashness that we need in reading Shakespeare. It is not that we should doze in reading him, but that, fully conscious and aware, his fame intimidates and bores, and all the views of all the critics dull in us that thunder clap of conviction which, if an illusion, is still so helpful an illusion, so prodigious a pleasure, so keen a stimulus in reading the great. Shakespeare is getting flyblown; a paternal government might well forbid writing about him, as they put his monument at Stratford beyond the reach of scribbling fingers. With all this buzz of criticism about, one may hazard one's conjectures privately, making one's notes in the margin; but, knowing that someone has said it before, or said it better, the zest is gone. Illness, in its kingly sublimity, sweeps all that aside and leaves nothing but Shakespeare and oneself. What with his overweening power and our overweening arrogance, the barriers go down, the knots run smooth, the brain rings and resounds with Lear or Macbeth, and even Coleridge himself squeaks like a distant mouse.
In the name of zest, and in order to make brains ring and Shakespeare resound, we will proceed, as Hamlet says to Horatio, "Rashly—And praised be rashness for it."
The Gap Between Thought and Action
For some, and it is a popular view that goes back at least to Goethe, Hamlet is a man who simply cannot make up his mind: he waits, hesitates, and is divided from himself in his "madness," all the while dreaming of a redeeming, cataclysmic violence. In this view, Hamlet is a creature of endless vacillation, a cipher for the alienated inward modern self in a world that is insubstantial and rotten: "Denmark's a prison," Hamlet sighs. For others, Hamlet is the great melancholic who is jealous of Claudius because he has realized his secret desire, namely, to usurp the place of his rival in the affection of his mother.
For still others, Hamlet is not so much a bather in the black sun of depression as too much in the sun of knowledge. Through the medium of the ghost, he has grasped the nature of that which is; that is, himself, his family, and the corrupt political order that surrounds him. Unlike some of the heroes in Attic tragedy, like Oedipus, who act first and then find out the truth later, Hamlet knows the truth from the ghost's mouth in act 1. This truth does not lead to action but instead to a disgust with or nausea from existence. In this view, Hamlet is a kind of anti-Oedipus: whereas the latter moves ragefully from ignorance to knowledge, and his insight requires the loss of his sight in a violent act of self-blinding, the great Dane knows the score from the get-go, but such knowledge does not seem to lead to action. Maybe action requires veils of illusion, and once those veils are lifted, we feel a sense of resignation.
Whatever the truth of the various interpretations, there seems to be a significant disconnection between thought and action in the person of Hamlet. Consider the famous "To be, or not to be" soliloquy. After contemplating suicide as an attempted "quietus" from a "weary life," Hamlet ponders the dread of life after death, "the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns" (apart from the ghost, of course, who seems to have a return ticket). The possibility of life after death "puzzles the will" and makes us endure the sufferings that we have rather than risk ones we know nothing of but that could be much worse. He continues:
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied over with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment,
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.
Thought and action seem to pull against each other, the former annulling the possibility of the latter. If, as Hamlet says elsewhere, "there is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so," then thinking makes things rather bad, and any resolution dissolves into thin air. Speaking of thin air, we might notice that when the ghost makes his final appearance in the play, in a scene of almost-unbearable verbal and near-physical violence, with Hamlet raging at his mother for her inconstancy, the ghost says that "This visitation / is but to whet thy almost blunted purpose." Hamlet confesses to being a "tardy son" who has not committed "Th' important acting" of the ghost's command.
The ghost asks Hamlet to step between his mother and her fighting soul and speak the truth. For a moment it seems as if he might—"dear mother, you are sleeping with your husband's murderer." But as she mumbles the word "ecstasy," Hamlet careens into the most pathetic of adjurations, begging Gertrude not to sleep again with Claudius, laying down arms before the truth, once again. "Conceit in weakest bodies strongest works," the ghost says.
The Mouse-trap
The only way in which it appears that Hamlet can attempt to close the gap between thought and action is through the ultimate conceit, that is, through theater, through play. The purpose of the play within the play in act 3, The Mouse-trap, is to produce a thing that will catch the conscience of the king. But as Hamlet is acutely aware—and, one naïvely presumes, that enigma that we name "Shakespeare" who lurks ghostly in the wings (and there is an ancient, if unverifiable, tradition that Shakespeare played the role of the ghost in the original performance, opposite Richard Burbage's Hamlet)—a play is nothing, namely, nothing real. It is, rather, "a fiction . . . a dream of passion" and this realization is somehow "monstrous." Theater is "all for nothing." What are the sufferings of Hecuba or indeed Hamlet to us? Yet, Hamlet would seem to be suggesting that the manifest fiction of theater is the only vehicle in which the truth might be presented.
The trap works, and the mouse-king's conscience is caught. The dumb show reenactment of Hamlet Senior's murder pricks the king's conscience, and he flees the theater calling for "light." We then find Claudius alone confessing his fratricidal crime, "O, my offense is rank." On the way to his mother's bedroom, to which he's been summoned, Hamlet passes Claudius kneeling in futile prayer. With Claudius genuflecting, head bowed, it is clear that now Hamlet could do it. With one swoop of his sword, thought and action would be reconciled and Hamlet's father revenged. But at that precise moment, Hamlet begins to think and decides that this is the wrong moment to kill Claudius because he is at prayer and trying to make his amends with heaven. It is "hire and salary," he says, "not revenge." Hamlet then fantasizes about killing Claudius at the right moment, "When he is drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in th' incestuous pleasure of his bed." He sheathes his sword and moves quickly to meet Gertrude, repeatedly and manically calling her: "Mother, mother, mother!" Following the express instructions of the ghost, Hamlet has resolved to use no more in his encounter with his mother than words, words, words: "I will speak daggers to her, but use none."
It is not that Hamlet cannot act. He kills Polonius, sends Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to their doom in -En-gland, is quasi-responsible for the death of Ophelia, and eventually dispatches Claudius. But the death of Polonius is inadvertent; he hears a noise from behind the arras and suddenly strikes and then insouciantly asks, "Is it the king?" having just left Claudius alive seconds earlier. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern die in his stead offstage—a complex letter-exchanging act of self-preservation involving piracy and ship switching that even impressed Freud, given Hamlet's otherwise morbid inhibition. Poor Ophelia's suicide is something like a tragic casualty of Hamlet's unrelenting cruelty toward her. Killing Polonius is the coup de grâce in Ophelia's unfolding psychosis. And the intended victim, Claudius, is only murdered when Hamlet has been hit with the poisoned rapier and knows that he is going to die: "I am dead, Horatio," Hamlet repeats in three variations in a little more than twenty lines. The dying Laertes spills the beans about the plot with the poisoned rapiers and wine, "the king's to blame," and Hamlet stabs Claudius to death after just one line's reflection: "The point envenomed too? / Then venom do thy work!"

"In their provocative new study, Simon Critchley, a professor of philosophy at the New School, and Jamieson Webster, a practicing psychoanalyst and author, offer a novel take on this most commented-upon of dramas. It is as much an astute account of the reactions of various philosophers and psychoanalysts to the play—and their often profound and sometimes wacky analyses—as a chronicle of the authors' own passionate response to virtually every aspect of the tragedy. The authors have an impressive mastery of all the factual details of the play . . . their discussions of such thinkers as Hegel and Nietzsche or Freud and Lacan are at once pithy and perceptive." —The Wall Street Journal
"Critchley and Webster's fierce, witty exploration of Hamlet makes most other writing about Shakespeare seem simple-minded." —Hari Kunzru, author of Gods Without Men
"I had no time to read Stay, Illusion!, and yet I found myself ravenously turning pages. I absolutely love the book, which I think is brilliant both as a set of readings of the play and as a meditation on contemporary, post-illusion existence. Hamlet is, as everyone knows, about everything, but it's also about nothing, or rather, nothingness. And this almost impossibly aphoristic book penetrates to the center of this paradox. A thrilling performance." —David Shields, author of Reality Hunger
"The gap between thought and action has rarely been contemplated with so much intellectual excitement and energy as it is in this book. Indeed, this study of Hamlet is a kind of thrill ride, a breathless investigation of some of the most important ideas from philosophy and psychoanalysis from the Modern era. But the great pleasure it holds in store for most readers has to do with its profound understanding of reflection, and its discontents." —Charles Baxter, author of The Feast of Love
"A brilliant set of readings of a work that, like an insistent ghost, seems to have more to tell us with each passing era." —Tom McCarthy, author of Remainder
"This is an engaging, eloquent, and insistently pleasurable text that makes the best case possible for "rash" reading. Hamlet can now be read in light of a number of new theoretical vocabularies such that we cannot think about love, self-reflection, doubt, or obstinacy without being haunted by his ghost. This collaborative writing gives us a dynamic set of forays, recruiting us into the start and stop of thought, making Hamlet crucial for the thinking of our own impasses and delights. In the mix is a singular and illuminating encounter between philosophy and psychoanalysis." —Judith Butler
"A philosophy professor and a psychoanalyst—also husband and wife—take Hamlet well beyond the confines of literary criticism and Shakespearean scholarship. . . . In a tone that is companionable and conversational despite the authors' obvious erudition, the book examines Hamlet through a variety of lenses—philosophical, psychological, political, Christian redemptive—without resolving the tension between thought and action that remains the essence of the work and generates so much fascination with it. . . . Critchley and Webster provide plenty of food for thought and fuel for obsession." —Kirkus
"Critchley and Webster advance a daring commentary on the Bard's Hamlet. . . . A spirited literary foray by audacious interlopers." —Booklist
"What more can be said about Shakespeare's great Hamlet, known to just about every thinking person on earth? But this book is different, aiming not for literary but cultural and psychological analysis; the authors bring a different perspective to the work. Are you ready, Shakespearians? That is the question." —Library Journal
"[An] insightful interpretation. . . . The authors' passion for the play and its questions are clearly evident." —Publishers Weekly
"Impressive…Critchley and Webster offer some intriguing and original thoughts on what Hamlet has to say about shame and love, taking up a new tone that suddenly makes the play feel intimately connected to both the authors themselves and the state of the world today…it's refreshing to read such unorthodox and enthusiastic explorations of canonical literature. Critchley and Webster manage to show both how philosophy and psychology illuminate Hamlet and how Hamlet, conversely, has illuminated those fields and the worlds around them." –Bookslut
"Intriguing…Critchley and Jamieson's take always feels fresh, in part because they address a range of interpretations, many of which they are unafraid to challenge…Erudite, witty and probing, Stay! Illusion offers new insights into a literary touchstone while deepening our appreciation for its complexity and its enigmatic core." –Shelf Awareness
"This is both an in-depth analysis of the play Hamlet and a study of our lives today. A compelling page turner, Stay, Illusion! digs deep into a character and play we all know, but perhaps haven't considered from this point of view." –Largeheated Boy
"[A] thoughtful, elegant work of criticism." –NPR.org, Best Books Coming Out This Week

This is the cordless home electrotherapy system that delivers hours of drug-free pain relief without requiring a visit to a doctor. Providing relief of pain associated with arthritis, the device employs Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy, a method of pain relief therapy widely adopted by medical professionals. When the self-adhesive electrode pads of this device are placed on sore spots, they send harmless low-frequency electrical pulses into the tissue that block pain signals passing through nerves to the brain. The system increases blood flow to the area to promote healing and relaxation. According to the American Physical Therapy Association, TENS therapy can be an effective element of pain management for low-intensity discomfort, such as back pain and muscle soreness in the extremities. The tethered controller lets you easily choose from 10 treatment modes with 10 intensity levels. System comes with two 1 1/2" x 3 1/2" electrode pads, two 3" x 5" electrode pads, an adjustable belt that secures the electrodes for back pain relief, and carrying bag. Includes three AAA batteries. Not for use by those with pacemakers. 6" L x 2 3/4" W x 1" D. (1 lb.)

The Pain Relieving Neuromuscular Stimulator System comes with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee at no additional charge.

Works Very Well
By Gbsailor
from Connecticut
Use on my back and hips to relive pain associated with arthritis and hip and leg pain. Gives fairly quick relief that lasts for several hours past application. It's not a cure but it helps me get around.The only drawback is the pads are difficult for me to remove. They are very sticky and can't be removed quick like a bandaid but slowly and somewhat painfully. On the good side, the adhesive does not stay on the skin when the pads are removed.

By Jamie Dupree
Here is the text of the bill that is being rushed through the Congress today to replenish money for the Cash for Clunkers program.
As indicated below, the money comes from already approved funds for an Energy Department program that was intended to help car companies develop more fuel efficient vehicles in the future. So, no new money was approved.
The Senate will take up this bill early next week.
Making supplemental appropriations for fiscal year 2009 for the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Program
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of American in Congress assembled, That the following sums are appropriated, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009, and for other purposes, namely:
For an additional amount for "Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Program" to carry out the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Act of 2009 (title XIII of Public Law 111-32), not to exceed $2,000,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2010;
Provided, That such amount shall be available for such purpose only to the extent directed by the President and shall be derived by transfer from the amount made available for "Department of Energy - Energy Programs - Title 17 - Innovative Technology Loan Guarantee Program" in title IV of division A of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5);
Provided further, That the amount under this heading is designated as an emergency requirement and necessary to meet emergency needs pursuant to sections 403 and 423(b) of S. Con. Res 13 (111th Congress), the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2010.
Sec. 2. Section 1302(g) of Public Law 111-32 is amended by inserting the following new paragraph:
(3) REVIEW OF ADMINISTRATION OF THE PROGRAM BY GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE AND INSPECTOR GENERAL. Not later than 180 days after the termination date described in subsection (c)(1)(A), the Government Accountability Office and the Inspector General of the Department of Transportation shall submit reports to the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House of Representatives and the Committee of Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate reviewing the administration of the program.
