Carl Story
Many stories tell how one individual became the leader of a particular musical group. Few prove more unusual than the way Carl Story was chosen as the leader of a band in 1934. Band members included Carl, fiddle, lead singer and Johnny Whisnant playing a three finger style of banjo with Ed McMahan and Dud Watson on guitars. Unable to choose a leader, four straws were prepared, one considerably shorter than the others, with the understanding that the person who pulled the short straw would become the bandleader. Carl Story drew the shortest straw, so the quartet became Carl Story and the Rambling Mountaineers, starting a legend that still thrives today. They selected the name because they were from the mountains and would be "rambling around" playing their music. Were video tape available of one of the group's performances, the scene would bring smiles to the faces of today' s Bluegrass musicians, but fifty years ago it was a way of life. In a small, one room school house sort of illuminated by a kerosene lamp burning on one end of a small stage, Carl Story and the Rambling Mountaineers played their music for a small but appreciative audience. Many assert that this band was the first to ever play the style of music we know today as Bluegrass. Home recordings made in 1939 were released in 1973 on Dave Samuelson's Puritan Records. (Extended play 45RPM, EP1001). A portion of the liner notes reads: "This record serves only to document one of the most influential bands in the development of Bluegrass Music." Carl Story always believed that he had the first Bluegrass band, but he never failed to mention that Bill Monroe put the music where it belonged, and that was on the Grand Ole Opry. Carl and the band recorded for Okeh Records in 1939 at radio station WSB, Atlanta, Georgia, but the records were never released and the masters have long since disappeared. Carl Story had a long, successful career in music as a performer, song writer, disc jockey and promoter. His career lasted sixty three years, and he recorded more than sixty albums. He was born in Lenoir, North Carolina on May 29, 1916. Carl underwent triple heart bypass surgery in South Carolina's Greenville Hospital in February, 1995. A second surgery was necessary to repair damage to the surgically implanted wiring placed during the first operation. Carl passed away on March 31, 1995. The music of Carl Story is being carried on by his band under the name, Carl Story's Rambling Mountaineers.,. The band is managed by Carl's widow, Helen Story. Carl learned to play the fiddle by listening to, and watching his father. His first band experience came with The Carolina Ramblers as a fiddle player in 1932. Just two years later, he was leading his own group. During this period Carl worked a day job in a furniture factory, working sixty or more hours a week, and earning ten cents per hour. When the Rambling Mountaineers played a show in the court house in Taylorsville, North Carolina, so many people came that a second show had to be scheduled. This success motivated Carl and the band to give up their day jobs, and devote full time to their music. They had a radio show on WCKY, Hickory, North Carolina until 1938, when they moved to WSPA, Spartanburg, South Carolina and later to WWNC, Asheville, North Carolina. Carl was a close friend of Clyde Moody, who was playing guitar and singing lead with Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys. When Bill needed a fiddle player, Clyde recommended Carl. This led to Carl joining the Blue Grass Boys in 1940, staying until he was drafted into military service in 1941. Discharged in 1945, Carl returned briefly to his home town and then went to WNOX in Knoxville, Tennessee, to play on "The Midday Merry Go Round" radio show, Monday through Friday and "The Tennessee Barn Dance" on Saturday night. Members of Carl's group at this time were Jack and Curley, the Shelton Brothers and Hoke Jenkins, who would later play banjo for Jim and Jesse McReynolds. Mercury Records signed Carl and he recorded the song, "Tennessee Border," that stayed on the record charts as number one for eighteen consecutive weeks. This song was also a major hit for country artist Carl Smith and was recorded by several other artists. During this time with Mercury Records, Carl Story had noticed an increasing interest in his gospel music and he wanted to record songs of a religious nature, but the management of Mercury showed very little interest in the project. Hubert Smith had sent Carl a song called; "My Lord Keeps A Record," and he wanted very much to record the song. Because of the lack of interest at Mercury, Carl chose another way to test the market. He played the song on the "Mid-Day Merry Go Round," and asked the audience to write-in to the radio Station, and the response was enormous. Wally Fowler, the man who started The Oak Ridge Quartet, who evolved into the Oak Ridge Boys, and was also responsible for the beginning of "The All Night Gospel Singings," contacted Carl and hired him to come to Birmingham, Alabama and sing that one song. The audience loved Carl, his group, and the song so much, they called them back for nine encores, and kept them on stage for over forty five minutes. This began Carl Story's commitment to gospel music, that continued through the remainder of his career. He found gospel songs were not only well received when first released, but sold well over a long period of time. Carl left Knoxville in 1951 and moved to Charlotte, North Carolina, with a show on WAYS radio. He was also involved in the beginning of The Tar Heel Barn Dance in Mineral Springs, North Carolina. He was playing guitar by this time and never returned to the fiddle, except to occasionally play it at home. Carl signed with Columbia Records, but was dissatisfied with that arrangement, so he returned once again to Mercury. That company was now very interested in Carl recording gospel songs. Carl had written the lyrics and Bud Brewster the music to a song that is now one of the most recorded Gospel songs of all time, "Light At The River," that he recorded for Mercury. Carl had two albums released on Mercury: (MG 20323) Gospel Favorites and (MG 20584) More Gospel Favorites, and one on Mercury/Wing (1229/16291) Good Ole Mountain Gospel Music. Carl and his band also recorded a song for Mercury called, "Mocking Banjo," featuring the mandolin and banjo playing of the Brewster Brothers. This was a remake of the tune "Dueling Banjos," written by Arthur Smith, who had played tenor banjo with Don Reno on five string, on the original recording. This was the same tune that was later featured in the movie, "Deliverance," as played by Eric Weissberg. Carl moved to Starday Records and recorded six songs for an extended play 45RPM, with band members Red Rector, the Brewster Brothers and "Tater' Tate. Featured on Wayne Raney's radio program, the record sold more that 400,000 copies in twelve weeks. Carl stayed with Starday for the next eighteen years, recording many great songs released in various combinations on albums. Carl moved into television in 1957 in Asheville, North Carolina. In 1958 he returned to Knoxville, working for Cas Walker, who sponsored radio and television shows, providing much exposure to many of the future stars of country and Bluegrass music. Song writing played a very important role in Carl's career, but he loved to tell the story of the one that got away. Carl was eating lunch in a cafe in Knoxville when a man named Arthur Q. Smith, neither the great Opry fiddle nor the one who wrote "Dueling Banjos," came in and sang a song he had written, and wanted to sell the song to Carl for $10.00. Carl turned to Claude Boone, who played with Carl for many years, and told him to listen to the song. Claude not only listened, he bought the song that became a major hit for Hank Williams Sr. Boone's original investment in "Wedding Bells," paid great dividends. Carl Story attracted many fans through his awesome vocal range. He sang wonderful lead with a mellow approach, a very high falsetto tenor, and a resounding bass. He always worked within the vocal capabilities of the members of his group to produce the best arrangement of a song. Carl had a problem with his throat for a three year period, but fortunately that problem went away. During that time period, Carl did not maintain a band, but used whatever backup musicians were available. In late 1991, Carl announced he would resume playing with The Rambling Mountaineers in 1992. Carl and his wife, Helen, lived in Greer, South Carolina. Carl had a Bluegrass radio show on 50,000 watt WESC-AM in nearby Greenville each Sunday from 1:00-3:00 p.m. Carl formed the North Carolina-South Carolina-Georgia Bluegrass Association with more than 1,000 members by mid-1993. The contributions Carl Story made to Bluegrass Music, made him a giant figure in his own time. His installation in SPBGMA's Preservation Hall Of Greats in 1988 was a just reward for the man who was known as, "THE FATHER OF BLUEGRASS GOSPEL."

Spanning four decades and four continents, this magisterial volume brings together the essential shorter works of reflection and reportage by our most sensitive, literate, and undeceivable observer of the post-colonial world. In its pages V. S. Naipaul trains his relentless moral intelligence on societies from India to the United States and sees how each deals with the challenges of modernity and the seductions of both the real and mythical past.
Whether he is writing about a string of racial murders in Trinidad; the mad, corrupt reign of Mobutu in Zaire; Argentina under the generals; or Dallas during the 1984 Republican Convention, Naipaul combines intellectual playfulness with sorrow, indignation, and analysis so far-reaching that it approaches prophecy. The Writer and the World reminds us that he is in a class by himself.

The masterplan for a new 680 hectare waterfront community of up to 55,000 inhabitants on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, led by global architecture, urbanism and design practice Broadway Malyan for client Aldar PJSC, has been approved by the Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council.
Approval of the masterplan, which won Aldar PJSC the 'Best Urban Design and Masterplanning Project' category at the Abu Dhabi Cityscape Awards 2011, will result in the creation of a series of distinct communities which will become the main residential areas on Yas Island.
The project is the latest stage in the continued development of Yas Island, Abu Dhabi's leading leisure and entertainment district, which features the F1 motor racing circuit, signature hotels, a Ferrari World Abu Dhabi theme park, as well as the under-construction water-park and an Abu Dhabi destination retail development.
Practice Director James Rayner says: "The approval of the masterplan is a major milestone in the creation of this major new residential area, with the success testament to close partnering with the client and the world-class skills, expertise and experience of our diverse team of global masterplanning experts."
The masterplan will see the communities linked by a comprehensive open space, road, light rapid transport, pedestrian and cycle network to other notable destinations on the island, with good 'walkability' a key factor in the design.
It will result in the delivery of 'complete' communities, supported by a full range of community facilities including schools, health clinics, extensive sports and recreation facilities, as well as convenience retail and commercial components.

Our foster son suffers from asthma it was diagnosed when he was about 14 months, he had it before we got him but we were not in a position to act.
basically he's got two inhalers and a spacer a blue inhaler and a brown inhaler excuse the spellings but i think there called ventolin and salbutomol.
basically the brown inhaler is used once/twice a day and contains a steroid but don't panic about the use of steroids you normally hear about them in a bad context but with an asthmatic child your soon lean to love steroids, our son is not chronic asthmatic so doesnt require this brown inhaler daily only at the first sign of a cold or similar then daily until it clears.
the blue inhaler is used as and when required.
don't be alarmed over use of inhalers won't cause your child harm.
you'll propbably find any colds will become chesty and will normally be treated by an oral steroid such as prendisolone (spelling) the first few times you'll panic and get upset but you soon learn to spot the symptoms, it took us three stays in hospital but now we can spot the signs straight away before it gets that bad.
putting stickers on the spacer and letting the child shake the inhaler helps get them used to it, our sons now 2 3/4ish and can build the spacer up including the face mask and shake it ready for use.
the easiest way to start off using the inhaler is by lying the child on its back and you sitting with them between your thighs with your knees over the arms to stop them wriggling too much.
does your child like banana's? if so do these make the asthma worse? there one of the key trigger foods for asthamtics.
use google or another search engine and you will find loads of useful information.
hope this is of some benefit.

ended up going to the doc's on sat morning after getting home from work, he'd just woke up and was a tiny bit chesty so off to the doc's we went and ended up catching it before it took off, so we got away with some amoxycillian (sp) rather than steroids, i just wish i'd been able to spot my own chest infection which fully kicked in before i knew i had it.

After chest X-rays blood tests and months of intense coughing and nighttime wheezing my daughter has just been diagnosed asthmatic. I was terrified at the thought but I am now so grateful for her inhalers as she is a completely different child. her appetite has returned the dark circles under her eyes have disappeared and her energy levels are at an all time high. At the moment I give her her blue inhaler religously in the morning, afternoon and before bed and keep an extra dose for during the night if she needs it. This way I am keeping her asthma under control.You learn to second guess things and for me being preventative and keeping her topped up with her ventolin has so far stopped her having a bad attack. At the first sign of a cold I make sure she has extra inhalers and has worked thus far. Hope this has helped.

MIMS - Bread and Butter ft. Biggie
Artist: MIMS
Featuring: Notorious B.I.G.
Producer: DJ Absolut
Album: Guilt
Avg Rating: 3.2 ( 42 total votes )
If you're still not sure why MIMS was so hot in early '07, take heed: since releasing his slightly less successful follow-up single, Like This, the Manhattan MC has been hard at work on his sophomore album, tentatively titled Guilt. Taking advantage of the late Biggie's sizable following (set to get even bigger when Notorious hits theaters on Janaury 16), MIMS becomes the latest rapper to sample him in a chorus (This Far, Richer Than Richie, Untouchable), using a line from Gimme The Loot as the hook for his newest street single, Bread and Butter. Other than the interpolation, DJ Absolut's production is minimal, leaving the spotlight on MIMS' all-over-the-place rhyme scheme. So, does the sophomore do the legend's sample justice? You, the reviewers, decide…

In 1803 this scientific principle officially came to be known as Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures. Dalton's Law primarily applies to ideal gases rather than real gases, due to the elasticity and low particle volume of molecules in ideal gases. Chemist Humphry Davy was skeptical about Dalton's Law, until Dalton explained that the repelling forces previously believed to create pressure only acted between atoms of the same sort,
and that the atoms within a mixture varied in weight and complexity.
The principle of Dalton's Law can be demonstrated using a simple experiment involving a glass bottle and large bowl of water. When the bottle is submerged under water, the water it contains is displaced, but the bottle isn't empty; it's filled with the invisible gas hydrogen instead. The amount of pressure exerted by the hydrogen can be identified using a chart that lists the pressure of water vapors at different temperatures, also thanks to Dalton's discoveries. This knowledge has many useful practical applications today. For instance, scuba divers use Dalton's principles to gauge how pressure levels at different depths of the ocean will affect the air and nitrogen in their tanks.
During the early 1800s, Dalton also postulated a law of thermal expansion that illustrated the heating and cooling reaction of gases to expansion and compression. He garnered international fame for his additional study using a crudely fashioned dew point hygrometer to determine how temperature impacts the level of atmospheric water vapor.
Atomic Theory
Dalton's fascination with gases gradually led him to formally assert that every form of matter (whether solid, liquid or gas) was also made up of small individual particles. He referred to the Greek philosopher Democritus of Abdera's more abstract theory of matter, which had centuries ago fallen out of fashion, and borrowed the term "atomos" or "atoms" to label the particles. In an article he wrote for the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society in 1803, Dalton created the first chart of atomic weights.
Seeking to expand on his theory, he readdressed the subject of atomic weight in his book A New System of Chemical Philosophy, published 1808. In A New System of Chemical Philosophy, Dalton introduced his belief that atoms of different elements could be universally distinguished based on their varying atomic weights. In so doing, he became the first scientist to explain the behavior of atoms in terms of the measurement of weight. He also uncovered the fact that atoms couldn't be created or destroyed.
Dalton's theory additionally examined the compositions of compounds, explaining that the tiny particles (atoms) in a compound were compound atoms. Twenty years later, chemist Amedeo Avogadro would further detail the difference between atoms and compound atoms.
In A New System of Chemical Philosophy, Dalton also wrote about his experiments proving that atoms consistently combine in simple ratios. What that meant was that the molecules of an element are always made up of the same proportions, with the exception of water molecules.

The message was short and to the point: A former colleague, one who had subbed for me while I was on maternity leave, had written to my editor about a great sidewalk pasta place he had found on the Broadwalk at Hollywood beach. He was astonished that I hadn't yet sniffed out this little gem, the only real fine dining on Hollywood beach, run by some guys who actually hail from Italy. Was I falling down on the job or what?
I hope he will allow me to be even more succinct: Back off, temp-boy! I guess I've been busy sampling the half-million other Italian places in South Florida, also run by people whose forefathers called the big boot home.
You see, when it comes to Italian restaurants in South Florida, the cliché "a dime a dozen" doesn't even apply. We're actually cheaper than that, more like a penny per thousand semolina-slingers, what with all the transplanted or multigenerational Italians -- not only from the peninsula itself but by way of New York City, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, even Japan. So in order to get me to some hole-in-the-seawall in Hollywood, something must distinguish this spot from its innumerable brethren. And it takes more than one recommendation to bring me to yet another spaghetti-and-meatball establishment. That's why I visited only after I coincidentally heard from another former colleague, also a denizen of Hollywood, who thought this place was the tops. (I'd suspect a conspiracy, but really, who would bother?)
As it turns out, plenty demarcates Café del Maxx, the pasta palace in question, but not all of these traits are exactly endearing. The lack of restrooms on the premises means that customers must ask the staff for the tokens that permit entry to the communal bathroom down the block. Even more irksome is the apparent difficulty chef-proprietors Massimo and Luca Malacchi have with opening the house during the hours listed on the door.
I visited for lunch on a weekday when the café was supposed to open at noon. But when I got there at about 11:45, the patio restaurant was sealed up tight, with blond wood tables stacked on top of one another and the menu board, advertising lunch specials, pulled inside. And while I am generally not impatient when there's wine to be had (a glass of which I ordered at the neighboring outdoor café while I waited to meet my guest that day), I was concerned by the seemingly complete lack of activity inside the restaurant. The lights were off, the cash register sealed and quiet, and even numerous phone calls placed to the restaurant yielded nothing more than "Please leave a message" intoned in the voice of the computer from War Games. Did I really want to lunch at an eatery that didn't have enough foresight even to leave a message stating the name of the restaurant and its hours of operation, let alone answer the phone during its ostensible operating hours?
Of course not, which is why at 12:15 my guest and I walked down the Broadwalk to quell our disappointment with "frozen libations" and batter-dipped, deep-fried grouper fingers at O'Malley's, a long-time favorite establishment catering to the beach crowd. After sufficient refreshment, we walked back to Café del Maxx to check the status and found the tables had finally been taken outdoors, while employees lounged inside. When we asked why they hadn't been opened earlier, they merely shrugged. "Oh, we were in a meeting," one guy tossed out. (What were they discussing, profit margins?) "I'll serve you now," he offered despite the takeout box of Buffalo wings I had in my hand.
"Thanks," I managed, after retrieving my jaw from the Broadwalk. "We've already eaten."
If losing out on our business made any impact on the staff, I couldn't see it, which leads me to a bit of friendly advice to the proprietors: If lunch business on the Broadwalk at Hollywood beach is so negligible that you don't mind holding closed-door meetings during lunch hours, take the next step and limit your schedule to dinner only. Indeed, a subsequent evening excursion to the Café del Maxx revealed that, when it is open, the restaurant ably fills a fine-dining void on this particular strip of sand.
Unfortunately the servers at Café del Maxx sometimes show as shaky a grasp of the menu as they do of the hours of operation. When our waiter at dinner one evening enthused about a special antipasto italiano, we asked him what was on it. Aside from the usual suspects such as homemade mozzarella, which turned out to be a rather bland, gooey substance, he promised that a more unusual ricotta salata-and-seafood salad, a ceviche-like combo, was included. But the platter, presenting a few nice hunks of the dry, flavorful ricotta, came sans shrimp, calamari, or anything that bore a resemblance to shellfish and mollusks. When we inquired after the seafood salad, he told us that the chef was running out of it and decided not to put any on the plate. But the waiter then brought us a separate bowl of the pleasantly marinated seafood.

Israeli forces killed eight Turks and a 19-year-old US citizen of Turkish ethnicity onboard the Gaza-bound Mavi Marmara, part of a flotilla of ships carrying aid, in international waters on May 31, 2010. Both the Turkish government and population were enraged by the deadly operation. Turkey has demanded an official apology, compensation for the victims' families and an end to the Gaza blockade. Israel has refused to apologize for the attack, claiming such a request is an insult to its national pride and that its soldiers acted in self-defense, and has moreover declined to pay compensation to the families. Accordingly, Turkey has downgraded relations with Israel, suspending military agreements and asking senior Israeli diplomats to leave Turkish territory.
Ramazan Arıtürk, the lawyer representing Ahmet Doğan, father of 19-year-old victim Furkan Doğan, is reported to have refused the Israeli offer, saying: "It is not ethical. We cannot bypass Turkey."
In a statement published in the Habertürk daily Arıtürk claimed Israel made its offer through an envoy nearly a month ago, communicating to him: "We will transfer $6 million to an Istanbul-based Jewish foundation to pay the families of the victims the compensation. As the Israeli government we want to deliver our apology to the victims' families, and you withdraw your case in the national and international courts."
However, Arıtürk told the envoy his client Doğan rejected the Israeli offer as unethical behavior, adding, "We are not accepting such an offer that bypasses the Republic of Turkey." He stated that they informed Turkey's Foreign Ministry about the offer and subsequent refusal. "This is a crime committed against humanity. We waited for the investigations to be completed in Turkey in order to start filing the claim," said Arıtürk.
Speaking to TRT Haber, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu said he had met with Justice Minister Sadullah Ergin about indictments prepared by a Turkish prosecutor, yet to be approved by the Turkish judiciary, concerning the attack on the Mavi Marmara, the investigations into which are already complete. Commenting on the legal process Davutoğlu remarked: "Turkey is a state of law and if there is any attack against Turkish citizens in international waters, if there is death and injury as the result of an incident, Turkey as a state of law has every right to pursue appropriate measures."

Though I'll doubt that they will all be here in time for tonight's contest at SLICE, the Wild announced today that Cody Almond, Danny Irmen, Robbie Earl, and Matt Kassian have been assigned -- as expected -- to the Aeros. That leaves the Wild roster at 27, so there may still be a player or two still coming our way. I'm thinking of Colton Gilies and Benoit Pouliot.
Marco Scandella, who was in Houston for last year's Calder Cup playoffs, was assigned to a junior team.

Pouliot would require waivers to be sent to Houston. I see Fletcher and Co. giving him a shot before they would try to put him through waivers.
He is currently out with a minor leg injury and should be back on the ice at the end of this week. - September 27, 2009 at 12:03 PM

The Roehr is a very exclusive, hand-built, all-American sports bike using a supercharged Harley Davidson 1250cc V-twin stolen from a V-Rod. The frame was designed by Walter Roehr himself. It's not just a gimmick either, it works and, considering the weight of the Harley engine, handles far better than you'd think.
1195cc, 159.34bhp, 169.55mph, Insurance group 17
Unashamedly a circuit-based blaster that will need a road-rider to be fully aware of what he is about to buy if it's to be used on the road. From the competition-biased WP suspension to the 170bhp engine and the lightweight Marchesini wheels in between, the KTM RC8R cries out for corners to be taken at speed. Although it doesn't need to ...
1293cc, 173bhp, 155mph, Insurance group 17
It may look largely the same as the outgoing model but the latest version of BMW's naked K1300R has had a host of small changes that add up to a much better bike all-round. With a claimed 173bhp and some seriously clever optional electronically-adjustable suspension, traction control and a long list of options to choose from, BMW has built a ...
1099cc, 160bhp, 175mph, Insurance group 17
Taking just one year to build from a clean sheet of paper, Bimota's new DB7 has been an instant sales success. That's a relief for the small firm in Rimini, Italy, who were pinning their hopes on the DB7 being their lifeline for the future. It's a marriage made in heaven with Bimota making the beautifully-crafted rolling chassis and Ducati ...
1072cc, 97bhp, 140mph, Insurance group 17
The hub-centre steered Bimota Tesi is back. This is the third generation Bimota Tesi: the 3D. It costs £19,600 and is powered by the Ducati Multistrada 1100 engine. Although the Bimota Tesi is beautifully made, it's a very cramped motorcycle and the quirky front end doesn't have anywhere near the feel of a well set-up pair of forks. The cheaper ...
998cc, 183bhp, 182mph, Insurance group 17
It's called the '312' because MV claims it'll do 312km/h, which equates to about 193mph. When we put it to the test it only managed 182 along a two-mile runway, albeit in a headwind. Costing fifteen grand it needs to be head and shoulders better than the GSX-R1000s and R1s of the world, and it isn't.
998cc, 170bhp, 182mph, Insurance group 17
Yamaha's latest R1 features new-found midrange drive from junking Yamaha's tried and tested five-valve per cylinder in favour of the traditional four-valve set up, but at the same time installing some of the "bad boy" engine manners the original model was famed for. The chassis also gets updated by way of new frame, swingarm and suspension to make this latest ...
929cc, 152bhp, 164mph, Insurance group 17
The Honda CBR900RR FireBlade's biggest revamp to date came for 2000 and it wasn't exactly what fans were expecting. New fuel injection was thirsty and made smooth riding harder. The 17" wheel tamed the Honda CBR900RR FireBlade's lively nature. More importantly the raucous, powerful Yamaha YZF-R1 was in the scene and the Suzuki GSX-R1000 was on the horizon – both better ...
996cc, 133bhp, 170mph, Insurance group 17
Exotic, ultra-rare and built with a level of attention few manufacturers can match. But unlike the Bimotas of previous decades, the SB8R doesn't radically out perform Japanese competition of the same time. It does manage to be a little better though and race success backed this up. Lack of dealer back up makes ownership worrying.

Old Navy
Old Navy Complaint - A Sin and A Shame!!!
Review by
Comments (17)
This evening (Feb. 27, 2009) I saw a couple of Old Navy Commercials on TV. It seems that the Old Navy ad campaigns are currently featuring talking mannequins and I am saying that one of the ads I saw is done in the poorest of taste. In fact, I found it to be exploitative towards women, racist towards African Americans, and socially and morally offensive in general.
The commercial I am referring to is the one in which the mannequins are discussing how they look in jeans. Their comments, which are meant to be clever, are anything but (no pun intended). Their comments seem to be all about the "human backside". In fact, throughout the entire commercial they are focusing on and talking about "the behind", both male and female. There's nothing cute about anyone putting hind-quarters "in your face", and though they tried to make light of it at the end of the commercial, the damage was already done.
I know that a lot of emphasis is placed on how well a person fits into their jeans, but, this O.N. commercial did not just send out a negative social message, it sends out a damaging moral message to people of all races, and particularly to the children and teens they are primarily marketing to. Shame on you Old Navy!

I have one pair of old navy jeans, they fit terribly. They make me look like I have a sofa attached to my backside. They are still in the back of the closet, I've only worn them once.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
I actually chuckled out loud at this commercial. I thought it was very clever.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
I find this commercial amusing. Many, many brands of jeans, especially those selling to women, focus on the "hind quarters" view.
Welcome to marketing 101
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
I agree with you. I find it degrading to women and minorities. Shame on Old Navy, for encouraging such views and preventing society from prevailing!
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
For heaven's sake, they're using sex in commercials. I'm appalled.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
If it wasnt for sex in commercials, I wouldn't even know what it is. >:-X I know.. TMI! I wonder how long it will take this message to be deleted? lol
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
Yeah. What John said.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
hahaha.. They should make men's jeans commercials that focus on the derriere, its a huge topic at the gym. :)
Posted by DigitalCommando on 2009-02-28:
John, maybe one of these mannequins are available now. You will have to remove the jeans though.
Jandee, whatever you do, don't move to Europe.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
Boki, is there one specific derriere that is huge, or just the topic in general? Oh way, thats MY derriere >:-)
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
ROFL John! Its all a matter of taste, there's something for everybody, and don't get me started. ;)
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
LOL thanks for looking out for me DC, but I'd rather go without.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
One more thing though. I find Old Navy clothes absolutely hideous and think they could use a little sexin' up.
As long as they've been open, and as much of a shopper as I am..I've never bought one article of clothing there.
Posted by DigitalCommando on 2009-02-28:
Just the name "Old Navy" makes me think of racks full of Ernest Borgnines old boxers, yeah I'm gonna shop there.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
Hahaha DC!
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-02-28:
I haven't seen this particular commercial so I don't know about anything racist against African Americans, but ON uses people from all ethnic backgrounds in their commercials so that seems odd. However, I do agree with the OP on the content of commercials....but, having said that, that's what sells, if it didn't we would be seeing something different.
As for shopping at ON, I actually like their jeans..I can find the tall lengths and for 25-30 bucks a pair, they hold up well. I don't particularly care for the rest of their clothes though, they're cheaply made and don't seem to last.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-02-28:
They have nice jeans? Does Principissa know this?
In retrospect its been so many years since I've been in an ON, they could have great clothes by now.

Home > Research Legal Advice > Immigration > What immigration forms do i need to petition for my wife?
Me and my wife got married last Nov. 10, 2009 here in Jersey City. I am a US citizen and I need to petition my wife but since this is the first time I'm going to do this, I don't have any idea what are those procedures or requirements that is necessarily for my wife..
One minor point, the filing fees and expenses can cost nearly as much as the attorney's fees in some situations. That means that if denied due to a minor error, you can end up spending much more to hire an attorney the second time around.
In some situations, an applicant can be disqualified for reasons that do not involve criminal activity. A denied applicant may be referred to immigration court for deportation, where they are out of status or a visa overstay at that time.
Since you are in New Jersey, you may want to find a local experienced immigration and visa attorney who can help you with this matter. A local attorney will probably attend the interview. However, the attorney may encourage you to avoid filing in some situations, where the attorney has enough time to carefully review the situation and discuss lawful visa options.
The above is general information and does not create an attorney client relationship.

I present to you, Confound.
My first serious project in Flash, made over the course of a month using Flixel.
You are a test subject of the Confound project, which studies the mind's ability to relearn how to perform simple tasks such as jumping and walking around while under the effect of artificial confusion.
Forget all you have learned about movement controls.
It's time to get confused.
WARNING - This game can be quite difficult at later stages. It also has an Auto-Save feature, so if you are having trouble, you can just quit and finish it later!
Protip - Take your time and think it through before moving around when near danger. Try no to be reckless.
Seeing as this is only my first flash game, I'd really appreciate some insightful reviews about what could be improved upon or not, if the game is enjoyable or not, that kind of stuff.
I hope you all enjoy this one!
EDIT - Woah! Front Page? Thanks, Newgrounds!
EDIT 2 - Reduced enemies and spikes' hitboxes.
PS: You can control the Volume with the - and + keys and mute/unmute with the 0 key.
this game is awsome level 9 made think what is left whats right whats up whats down this game is awsome i love this kind of games and its elly tricky and i love that level 8 i was like Z Q P M is it even posible to control and i was like oh thats eazy there is no better game then this!
Ah... so interesting! And I'm glad level 10 isn't the last level... I knew there was something fishy.
Anyway, there was a button that enable me to open the action flash script or something. I think it was the "\" button, NOT the "/" button.
Still, the concept was interesting and challenging. I'll give you a 5 stars everyday :D
Whatttttttt level 10 is not the end??
This is evil D: !!!
But I still like it makes my brain goes CRAZY.
very good game.. I enraged at the last level @.@ but I found a bug (and shame on me, I used it >.<) you are able to open the flash player console (I don't know what it is on an american keyboard but the german button for it is 'ö' so maybe the ';' button) and pause the game.. the buttons still remain the same and you can start pressing them.. you should be able to finish that lvl with 4secs left, but I hope this will be fixed... shame on me >.<
anyways, still good and challenging game.. at the beginning I thought I could rush through that game in a few minutes ^^ 5/5 stars from me
Oooh, I wasn't aware of that. It's not really gamebreaking or anything, but I think it should be fixed. While I'm at it, I guess I'll reduce the difficulty on the last level a bit as well, since people seem to be having a hard time with it. Thanks for the feedback!
I wanted to rate this game higher but unfortunately the music was to awesome and the idea to unique.
So 5 stars will just have to do.
Great job.

Limestone Grinding Operation Opens
- Details
- Published: Friday, 15 October 2010 10:30
Charah, Inc., an ash management provider for the coal-fired electric utility industry, and Ameren Missouri opened a limestone grinding facility at APAC Tennesseeís Brickey Quarry in Bloomsdale, Mo. The facility will process as much as 400,000 tons of limestone annually into powdered limestone for use at Ameren Missouriís Sioux coal-fired power plant. Powdered limestone is used as a reagent to capture sulfur dioxide emissions.
The Brickey Limestone Grinding Facility uses a series of hoppers and conveyors to move the limestone from a raw material storage building to two 85-inch Williams Patent Crusher roller mills. Once crushed, the limestone is stored in an 8,000-ton storage dome and then conveyed into one of two load-out silos.
Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Sailing Thailand - Koh Phi Phi to Phuket (ATSH)
The perfect add-on to any Thailand adventure, this four-day sailing trip allows you to escape the crowds, tucking into hidden bays and pristine beaches on Thailand's western coast. Snorkel in crystal-clear waters and dine on freshly prepared local delicacies. Beginning in Koh Phi Phi Leh – made famous by the movie "The Beach" – our G Adventures exclusive 14-passenger catamaran is the perfect home for relaxing and enjoying these stunning islands.
Highlights: Relax on the deck of your yacht in the stunning southern Thai islands, eat delicious Thai cuisine, lounge out on beautiful beaches, swim and snorkel in quiet bays
Northern Thailand Hilltribes Trek (ATHH)
Trek through the hills surrounding Chiang Mai and meet the local people, known collectively as hilltribes, who have made their homes on these slopes. They have lived in peace and without modern conveniences for many years; a visit to these traditional communities is like travelling back to a simpler time. Learn about jungle food and the local way of life, and ride an elephant through the forest. After all that exertion, recline on a bamboo raft and float downriver, giving the friendly locals a wave as you drift past them going about their daily lives.
Highlights: Explore the vibrant colours of Chiang Mai, trek through Northern Thailand, meet the friendly locals, learn about the Karen tribe and witness their traditional weaving
Sailing Thailand - Phuket to Koh Phi Phi (ATSK)

This is a perfect add-on to our other Thailand trips or a serene escape from the crowds of Phuket.
Highlights: Snorkel in crystal-clear water, sail through stunning southern Thai islands, feast on tantalizing Thai cuisine, relax on secluded beaches
Kruger Camping Safari (DAKS)
Short and to the point, if you're already in Joburg or simply hungry for a taste of South Africa's exceptional wildlife and culture, this 4-day safari adventure will certainly hit the spot. Starting in Johannesburg, you'll head into world-renowned Kruger National Park—one of the largest and most diverse wildlife areas in Africa and home to zebras, elephants and lions. Travel is via a small 19-seat minibus. Participatory camping keeps you under the stars and, thanks to our long-standing community ties, you'll get plenty of invigorating local interaction as you meet the people of Shalati. The African wilderness is closer than you ever imagined.
Highlights: Encounter exotic wildlife in Kruger National Park, get off the mainstream tourist trail while spending a night in the community of Shalati, witness a traditional dance, get around in a nimble 19-seat touring vehicle, do it all in just four days.
Masai Mara Camping Safari (DKMM)
If you're short on time, this adventure serves up the colours, culture and wildlife of Kenya in four incredible days. Journey across the rolling plains and through the acacia trees of the legendary Masai Mara in search of Africa's ever-elusive Big Five. Our 4x4 safari vans are designed for wildlife viewing and are an adventurous and inexpensive way to see the wonders of the Masai Mara, while wilderness camping in permanent tents will let you hear the sounds of the planet's most amazing animal life. The varied wildlife and natural environment and the colours and culture of the local Masai people all come together on this adventure to provide a spectacular safari experience.
Highlights: Explore the Masai Mara Game Reserve, view diverse wildlife in search of the Big Five, spend two nights in a safari camp
Croatia Truffle Festival (ECTF)
Prized by epicureans for their flavour and scarcity, the elusive truffle is the rock star of the fungus world. And nobody celebrates this most exalted of tubers quite like Croatia, home to the annual Truffle Days Festival. Beginning on the island of Cres, our adventure here will introduce you to the idyllic seaside communities of Croatia's Adriatic Coast and let you partake in a genuine truffle hunt with a professional tartufalo before delivering you to the culinary tuberpalooza itself in Livade. Don't forget to pack your appetite. (In fact, pack a spare, just in case.)
Highlights: Sample local delicacies at the world-famous Truffle Days Festival in Livade, taste fresh olive oil in Cres, search for truffles with a professional tartufalo, experience Groznjan's thriving art scene, visit medieval Hum (the world's smallest town)
Canadian Arctic Polar Bear Migration (NCPM)
The polar bear is one of nature's most ferocious stars—see them for yourself in their native land. Travel to the Inuit town of Arviat—in the middle of one of the planet's most extreme environments—and immerse yourself in Inuit culture. Inuit guides will lead you further off the grid to remote huts on the tundra where you'll witness the annual polar bear migration and once-in-a-lifetime views. Along the way, you'll visit local artists, try traditional teas and experience a way of life you will truly never forget.
Highlights: Head out onto the tundra and try not to be overwhelmed when spotting migrating polar bears, immerse yourself in the history and culture of the Inuit people of Arviat, be surrounded by untouched Arctic scenery, get the chance to photograph bears in this remote frontier
Kakadu Adventure (OAKA)
Get remote and head into the last frontiers of Australia—Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks. Featuring lots of inclusions at a great price, this itinerary is geared towards budget-conscious travellers who want to make the most of their time in Kakadu.

Wrong again, dumba$$.
Far more high school drop outs voted for their Sugar Daddy 0bama.
More people who only graduated from high school and those who went on to attend some college but could not cut it, voted for Obama.
More college grads voted for Romney.
Only post grads voted more for 0bama.
But this is easily understandable since colleges and universities are bastions for leftist professors who cannot cut it in the real world.
You should have fact checked your stupid premise at your own liberal/progressive news outlet CNN:

I'm a longtime Titanium Backup user, but I've been hearing a lot about MyBackup lately. Anyone have any thoughts on comparing the two?
Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
Both have failed me in my time of need, but I'm sure it was user error.
Please be respectful. Respect is #1 here at DF Please read our Guidelines of Conduct
Iv never used mybackup but titaniums paid works blazing fast to restore and is very good at backing up user data. That is the real question is it as good at backing up data.(user) if its just apps im not going anywhere.
I like how I take 5min after i dl a new app to get everything back to where it was settings and all.
if you dont mind me asking what happened? Iv always got all my apps up and running in a matter of a few min. did the backup just fail and no apps reinstalled? or user data was lost?

Grassroots" is that there's no mention at all of the classic "Simpsons" episode "Marge vs. the Monorail." Then again, maybe director Stephen Gyllenhaal didn't want to draw too many parallels between his idealistic protagonist, erstwhile Seattle City Council candidate Grant Cogswell, and the elevated-train-promoting huckster who nearly ruined Springfield.
"Grassroots" chronicles, in what it admits is a "mostly true" fashion, the quixotic 2001 campaign by Cogswell (Joel David Moore) to unseat Councilman Richard McIver (Cedric the Entertainer). With the help of Phil Campbell (Jason Biggs), a fired journalist who reluctantly becomes his campaign manager, Cogswell's fringe, single-issue candidacy finds an unexpected groundswell of support and he becomes a more serious challenge to McIver than anyone imagined.
The cast also includes Lauren Ambrose as Phil's girlfriend, who's initially only tolerant of their home's transformation into a campaign crash pad, and, for some reason, Tom Arnold as a supportive bar owner. Campbell, who wrote the book on which the film was based, wrote for The Stranger, and we'll leave it to the Seattle alternative press community to nitpick the accuracy of the filmed-in-Seattle project.
Gyllenhaal (yes, Maggie and Jake's father, whose career highlight remains the 1991 HBO film "Paris Trout") clearly aims for a quirky underdog appeal, and Moore brings a gawky charm, but if the real Cogswell was this mercurial and monomaniacal then its both surprising and troubling that he came so close to acquiring real political power.

Back to Spain: Badajoz!
... room service but it turns out room service only serves until 7:30pm! So out we headed again to find dinner; we were hoping to find somewhere with an English menu but settled for a place with Wi-Fi so we could translate a few things. Tomorrow is our last full day in Spain, we are headed for Madrid & are then off to Dublin on Saturday! Looking forward to English menus!
What happens if you live in another...
... just 20km away. a lake so quite that you can see the stars mirroring in it. to sync with normal time reckoning I repaired the solar system, installed the new gas alarm (thx elias), put el rucio apart (again) and repaired the spare tire with the new "marterpfahl-stake technique"
you should know, here you can only work either before 11am or after 6pm. in between you better relax, swim, read, write like now, listen to music and most important, enjoy life in the ...
Crash course in Spanish!
... The pubs are pumping though!
(Johno here....seriously, it reminded me of the western movies...when the baddies come to town on their horses and you see everyone scuttle away, lock doors...and pulls the blinds down....that is what happens at siesta time...within 30 minutes the place is a ghost town....even the town water fountain at the heart of the city square is turned off...I guess they think why have a water display going when there is no one out to ...
Lots of driving today
... might be interesting. It was all a bit too modern for my taste - think Picasso on canvas. The tower in Portalegre was nicely done inside - but the outside looked like pallets stacked together
Long and pretty drive over the mountains - we had 5 hours driving altogether - a long day for us, but broken up into sections, so it did not seem so ...
Final tour of Elvas
... to get our car back to Lisbon on time and to meet up with Mike's niece, Mary Kate, who will be spending our final two days with us.
i'm not sure which city I liked better, Evora or Elvas. All the guide books spoke about Evora as a city not to be missed, and Elvas was so-so. I was quite surprised that Elvas offered a lot. As Diane and Ali stated, the guides in Elvas were so helpful and eager. They clearly took pride in their city. The guide ...

Fast delivery and any queries dealt with easily....a simple call to Simon and things were sorted....prompt refund on an item that couldn't be ordered from Martin Guitars...will use them again no problem and recommend them highly
2 x mackie thump speakers ordered and delivered within 2 days. Only downside is power cable has euro connection rather than British standard plug so will either get adaptors or new power cable...have emailed GAK for advice so 10 sats if they respond quickly- time will tell
Anyway, I'd certainly use them again... Cheapest price and free delivery by FedEx.... Canna be bad

25th SF Birthday Dinner-- relaxed, live music (dancing?), ethnic food
Hi Chowhounds!
My 25th birthday is coming up and I am looking for some FUN recommendations of good restaurants for a big group, that perhaps has something kinda special like live music, or dancing after dinner. Think Tonga Room but not Tonga Room. I was thinking something like Brazilian or something else with cool flavor.
-not absurdly expensive
-off the beaten path is great
-ethnic is great
-good for a group of 12-15
Thanks for all your ideas!
It's a drive, not Brazilian, but what about Rancho Nicasio?
