I am trying to recall the name of a ventriloquist who appeared on Ed Sullivan in the late forties. I believe he was from the UK. It may have been Arthur something or other. I saw it on a DVD called the Very Best of Ed Sullivan volume 2. In the bit I saw, his dummy is betting him he can't say a phrase with a lot of b's in it without moving his lips. He fails. Then the DUMMY says the phrase without moving his lips and of course the ventriloquist doesn't move his lips either. Then there is a surreal moment where the dummy says "Okay, who's the dummy?" It's hard to explain but it is the best vent bit I ever saw in my life. (I also borrowed the Ed Sullivan videos with Fred Kaps on it.) |

Can't help you with the vent bit. But the Fred Kaps piece (or at least one of them if he'd appeared more than once) can be seen on the Ed Sullivan Presents the Beatles two-disc DVD. On the second DVD, Fantasio can be seen doing a very nice standard act. (Standard in that there's no canes or candles.)

I like the sound of that! I was thinking it could have been Paul Zerdin- then I realised you said back in the forties! Neither he nor I would have been about back then! Keep looking! David |

You are thinking of Arthur Wolsely - and the statement was 'Bottle of Beer'. His act was basically the dummy only speaking and Arthur saying nothing. True Vaudvillian and a real treat to watch! Vottle of Veer, Vottle of Veer, vottle of vee.... |

Are you sure it wasn't arthur WORSLEY? (I misspelled it in my earlier post). He had a dummy that would say Bottle of Beer - which is what the original post was talking about... Forgive me if I am wrong - but I am pretty sure Worsley is the guy who did the 'bottle of Beer' bit. |

That piece of video from the Ed Sullivan show is on a vent site somewhere (sorry I can't remember the site name). If you are looking for some good vent footage you should also check out http://www.nolips.com the material on here is good, but he appears on some comedy allstar kind of video (saw it years ago) where he creates a sock uppuet in front of the audience and slowly beings it to life and then dis assembles it again, it's a fantastic piece.

Maybe we should see if they could do a DVD of all Ed's "variety" bits. The magicians, ventriloquists, the dancing bear or dog acts, etc.
It's Ronn Lucas. I love this guy! His "Billy The Kid" character is wonderful. (I'm a Nerf person!") and I wish the dragon show had worked better. "He was born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad." - Rafael Sabatini, Scaramouche |

Worsley is indeed the vent who says nothing and the puppet says everything while he just stands there looking on. |

It has been suggested that China in the Mahabharata be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since September 2011. |
The Chinas or Chīnaḥ (Sanskrit चीन:) are a people mentioned in ancient Indian literature from the first millennium BC, such as the Mahabharata, Laws of Manu, as well the Puranic literature. They are believed to have been Chinese.
The name Cina is commonly believed to have been derived from the Qin (Tsin or Chin) dynasty which rule in China from 221 BC.[1] The Greco-Romans referred to China as Sina, or Sinae.
Another theory by Geoff Wade is based on a polity known as Yelang, in what is now China's Yunnan province. The inhabitants of this region referred to themselves as zina.[2]
In the epic of the Mahabharata, the Chinas appear together with the Kiratas among the armies of king Bhagadatta of Pragjyotisa (Assam). In the Sabhaparvan, the same king is said to be surrounded the Kiratas, and the Cinas. Also in the Bhismaparvan, the army of Bhagadatta is said to consist of the Kirtas and the "yellow-colored" Cinas.
Bhishamaparva of Mahabharata also lists the Cinas with the Mlechha tribes of the north like the Yavanas, Kambojas, Kuntalas, Hunas, Parasikas, Darunas, Ramanas, Dasamalikas.[3] These verses date to fifth century AD when the Hunas came into contact with Sassanian dynasty of Persia
Shantiparvan of Mahabharata groups the Cinas with the barbarous tribes of the Uttarapatha viz the Yavanas, Kiratas, Gandharas, Shabras, Barbaras, Shakas, Tusharas, Kanakas, Pahlavas, Andhras, Madrakas, Ramathas, and the Kambojas and states them as living the lives of Dasyus. These verses of epic expect these tribes to perform certain duties which are different from those performed by the Brahmanas, Kshatriyas, Vaisyas, and Sudras.[4]
Vanaparvan of the Mahabharata states that the territory of the Cinas can be reached by a land-route across the country of the Kiratas in the mountain regions of the north.
Kiskindhakanda of Valmiki's Ramayana makes reference to Cinas as well as Parama-Cinas and associates them with the trans-Himalayan tribes of the Daradas, Kambojas, the Yavanas, the Sakas, the Kiratas, the Bahlikas, the Rishikas, and the Tañkanas of the Uttarapatha.[5]
The epic literature asserts that the Cinas, Khasas, Hunas, Shakas, Kambojas, Yavanas, Pahlavas, Kiratas, Sinhalas, Mlechchas etc. were created by sage Vashistha through the divine powers of cow Sabala or Nandini (Kamdhenu).[6]
In the Kalika Purana, the Cinas are again grouped with the Kambojas, Shakas, Khasas and the Barabaras etc. and are said to have sided with Buddhist king Kali in the war against Vedic king Kalika.[7]
Bhuvanakosha section of numerous Puranas locates the Cinas along with the Tusharas, Pahlavas, Kambojas, and Barbaras in the Udichya or northern division of ancient India.[8]
According to Vayu Purana and the Matsya Purana, the Cinas and several other tribes would be annihilated by king Kalika or Pramiti at the end of Kali age.[9]
In the Matsya Purana, the Chinas are said to be unfit for performing shraddhah.[10]
There is yet another reference to China as Cina-maru as referred to in the Vayu Purana and Brahmanda Purana. However, at the same place, Matsya Purana mentions Vira-maru. China-maru or Vira-maru has been identified with the lands of Turkestan situated above And-khui in the north of Afghanistan (Dr K. P. Jayswal, Dr M. R. Singh).
Buddhist literature[edit]
The Cinas also find reference in the Buddhist play, Mudrarakshasa, where they are listed with other contemporary tribes, such as the Shakas, Yavanas, Kiratas, Cambojas, Bhalikas, Parasikas, Khasas, Gandharas, Kalutas, etc.
Buddhist text Milindapanho (see: Sacred Books of the East, xxxvi, 204), associates the Chinas with the Sakas, Yavanas, Kambojas and Vilatas(?) etc., and locates them in the western Tibet/Ladakh, according to Dr Michael Witzel.[11]
Other literature[edit]
Chanakya (c. 350-283 BC), the prime minister of the Maurya Empire and a professor at Takshashila University, refers to Chinese silk as "cinamsuka" (Chinese silk dress) and "cinapatta" (Chinese silk bundle) in his Arthashastra.[12]
The Sanmoha Tantra speaks of the Tantric culture of the foreign countries like the Bahlika (Bactria), Kirata, Bhota (Tibet), Cina, Maha-Cina, Parasika, Airaka, Kambojas, Huna, Yavana, Gandhara and Nepala.
Around the 2nd century BC, the Laws of Manu describes the downfall of the Chinas, as well as many foreign groups in India:
- "43. But in consequence of the omission of the sacred rites, and of their not consulting Brahmanas, the following tribes of Kshatriyas have gradually sunk in this world to the condition of Shudras;
- 44. (Viz.) the Paundrakas, the Chodas, the Dravidas, the Kambojas, the Yavanas, the Shakas, the Paradas, the Pahlavas, the Chinas, the Kiratas, the Daradas and the Khashas." [13]
Besides China and Parama-China, there is also a reference to Mahachina in the Manasollasa which text mentions the fabrics from Mahachina.[1] It is thus possible that China probably referred to western Tibet or Ladakh, Mahachina to Tibet proper, and Parama-China to Mainland China.

text: Hula painted frog bounces back from extinction Science 21 November 11 by Mark Brown Tweet AP Photo/Dror Galili A species of frog that was thought to have been made extinct during the notorious drainage of the Hula marshlands in Israel, has appeared again after more than 50 years of hiding.The Palestinian or Hula painted frog (Discoglossus nigriventer) originally went missing when the Jewish National Fund drained the marshlands around the Hula Valley in the 1950s. The swamp was a breeding ground for malaria, and the disease was killing off the population.The JNF removed the water from the swamp and redirected the flow of water to the river Jordan with artificial estuaries. But the operation led to numerous knock-on effects -- the reclaimed land was useless for agriculture, toxins invaded the river and dumped peat routinely caught fire.The disastrous operation also led to huge destruction of ecosystems, wiping out water plants, tropical aquatic ferns, the ray-finned fish Acanthobrama hulensis and the cichlid fish Tristramella intermedia. Until this week, it was thought that the hula painted frog was among the lost species.But a routine patrol at the Ha'Hula lake by Israel's Nature and Parks Authority turned up a mysterious, unknown female frog and took it back to the lab for testing. It was soon confirmed that it was a Hula painted frog, and the rare species had hung on amongst the devastation of its habitat. In the 1990s, intense flooding caused areas of the Hula valley to become flooded again, re-hydrating the parched swamplands. This time round, the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel decided to leave it to nature.

The Loomis Town Council finds itself looking for a replacement member after the resignation of Mayor Walt Scherer a move that left some stunned and bewildered.
Scherer, who has served more than two decades on the council, surprised fellow members with talk of stepping away at an August meeting. He delivered his actual resignation Oct. 8 shortly after his return from a Christian pilgrimage across Spain.
He said he now wants to focus his attention on the citys Christmas festivities, which has been called a holiday event and has been held on public property in recent years. Scherer said he previously felt conflicted about promoting Christmas as a public official.
As I walked across the Christian pilgrimage, I weighed what mattered most, he said. (As an elected official) you want to respect the constitutionality of the separation of church and state you get torn between (respect for the Constitution and his faith).
Scherer stepped aside little over a year before he faced re-election in November 2014.
It was time to sit down and make room for someone else, Scherer said in a phone interview. He said the more than 500-mile walk helped him finalize his decision to walk away.
But Councilwoman Sandra Calvert questioned whether religious illumination led to Scherers resignation.
Scherer had been caught in a political pickle after his planning commission appointee, Janet Thew, questioned whether Loomis Councilman Dave Wheeler could serve on the council and as the areas fire chief. Thew and activist Bill Branch, a longtime friend of Scherer, said that represented a conflict of interest and asked the state attorney general to weigh in.
Calvert said Wheelers supporters had begun to talk about recalling Scherer.
Scherer subsequently asked Thew to resign her planning commission post, and she refused. Scherer then proposed changing council rules so he could dismiss Thew, and that effort failed as well.
Calvert also noted that Scherer offered a different reason for resigning to help the elderly when he first broached the subject from the council dais in August.
The council will accept applications to serve on the Town Council until the close of business Nov. 1. After a Nov. 7 special council meeting to interview candidates, a new board-appointed replacement will be seated Nov. 12.
As the top vote-getter in the last election, Vice Mayor Wheeler was scheduled to take over as mayor in December, but council rules require a one-year incubation period before a member can assume the largely ceremonial post. As a result, Councilman Miguel Ucovich was selected as the interim mayor until Wheeler takes over.
Meanwhile, the effort challenging Wheelers right to serve in both roles continues to move forward. Last week, a Sacramento law firm filed paperwork with the state attorney generals office seeking the authority to file a quo warranto lawsuit on behalf of Branch and Thew. Its unclear how long the attorney generals office will look at the issue before making a decision.

Staub Theater, 800-804 S. Gay St., 1872
With its pink Tennessee marble facings, Mansard roof and balustrade, the Staub Theater was the talk of the town when it opened with Rossini's opera "William Tell" in 1872.
Staub's may have shown movies as early as 1903, but it's known that in 1907, three short Westerns and five comedy shorts were shown there. With the Bijou, Gay and Queen theaters drawing more crowds, after 1915, Staub's turned to risqué programming, such as "The Whirly Girly Show" and "Oh, Lady! Lady!"
Adolf Ochs, later publisher of the New York Times, was an usher at Staub's. Some of the celebrities who played Staub's: William Gillette, the first actor to become famous for playing Sherlock Holmes, did the stage version of Conan Doyle's theatrical "Sherlock Holmes" there; Sarah Bernhardt brought "La Tosca" to Staub's in 1892; George M. Cohan, Al Jolson, Tullulah Bankhead, Lionel, Ethel and John Barrymore and his wife Elaine Barry, John Philip Sousa and Sergei Rachmaninoff all appeared there.
Edison Theatorium, 703 S. Gay, 1907
Name changes appear to have been this early theater's stock in trade. The name changed to Marvel in 1908, Ole Bull in 1909 and Grand in 1910. It closed in 1917, and the building was razed in 1965.
The Crystal Theater, 425 S. Gay, 1908
Possibly the first or second theater built in Knoxville specifically to show motion pictures. The address in 1907 is listed as vacant in the city directory, but the Crystal is listed there in 1908. In 1914, the city directory lists 425 S. Gay Street as the Crystal Shooting Gallery and Salt Water Taffy Store. It was once more a theater in 1915. The name changes to Ritz in 1933, and it was out of business in 1934.
The Arcade, 716 S. Gay, 1908-09
Opened inside Arthur DeArmand's soda shop at 716 S. Gay, but DeArmand went back to selling sodas within the year.
The Bijou, 805 S. Gay, 1909
Premiered with the theatrical production of George M. Cohan's "Little Johnny Jones." In 1915, after adding projection equipment and a screen, the theater began being listed in the Knoxville City Directory under "Motion Pictures."
In the 1920s, the seats were removed and the Bijou for a time served as a used car lot. It resumed showing films in the '30s.
By the late 1960s, the Bijou was known as an "art" (i.e., adult) theater, so it was somewhat paradoxical that Mrs. J.K. Rasnake willed the Bijou to the Church Street Methodist Church in 1971. In the same Knoxville Journal in which the disposition of Mrs. Rasnake's will was announced, the Bijou was advertising itself as a burlesque theater with "exotic dancers, novelty acts, and Frisco style burlesk."
By 1976, Knox Heritage had taken on the task of raising funds for its preservation and restoration.
The Bonita, 515 S. Gay, 1910-1912
The Bonita was owned by Oliver C. Post, who also held three other businesses on Gay Street: a barber shop, pool hall and boarding house. It was the first "movie house" to advertise in local papers, in the winter of 1910-11. (Staub's and the Bijou advertised but weren't strictly movie houses.) The 1913 Knoxville City Directory lists this address as the Emile Seilas Restaurant.
The Gay Theater, 403-405 S. Gay
Opened July 5, 1911; renamed the Strand in 1917. When it opened, the Gay was the grandest of all Knoxville movie houses (as opposed to "theaters" like Staub's and the Bijou). It claimed 900 seats, extra ventilation and more program diversity. The Gay was the first movie house to show newsreels in Knoxville.
It was also the first to use promotional stunts to draw specific audiences. For example, in 1911, to draw women and families as patrons, the Gay held a baby photo contest sponsored by Hope Brothers Jewelry and J.G. Sterchi Furniture Co.
It closed June 25, 1949.
The Queen, 511 S. Gay (moved or address changed to 513 S. Gay in 1916), July 7, 1914
The Queen Theater was a direct challenge to the Gay, with full-age ads when it opened boasting it was the largest theater in town with almost 1,000 seats, plus better ventilation with electric fans sending air over ice blocks drawn from openings in the back of the building. The Queen also promised to bring entertainment programs "within two weeks following their New York run." It was located approximately opposite of where the new Riviera stands today.
The Tennessee Theater, 804 S. Gay, 1928
In spring of 1936, the Tennessee was part of a huge promotional effort to kick off that year's wedding season. On May 29, 1936, the Knoxville Journal runs a headline announcing that two couples were to be married the following weekend on the stage of the Tennessee Theater. A 1936 Coldspot refrigerator was to be presented by the Sears & Roebuck Co. to the lucky brides on June 7, 1936. The next week, the Journal ran a half-page headline: "Double Wedding in Tennessee Theater Formally Opens the 1936 Wedding Season for the June Bride."
Gay Street Cinema, 215 S. Gay, 1969
The building also housed "Film Amusements Inc." Local theater expert Wallace Baumann recalls that "Deep Throat" played there, and the newspapers reported long lines of would-be patrons waiting outside the theater. This address was demolished for the construction of Summit Hill Drive.
Among the 28 businesses that lost their buildings were El Rocco Club; Rainbow Club; Fielden's; Faith Apostolic Church; Monday Real Estate; and Rentenbach Construction. The old Lawson McGhee library building was also torn down during this road design project.

-Craig Chaplick, Supervisor of Digital Marketing and Customer
Driving innovation in the research industry, that's what we do at iPerceptions. From our frameworks and methodologies to our outreach with the research community, we put our knowledge to work on your bottomline.
One of the common misconceptions about on-arrival surveys is that it will negatively affect conversion. At iPerceptions, we have collaborated with many e-commerce clients to test if there is any impact on conversion while running an on-arrival survey. Our tests showed that there is no significant negative impact on conversion. In fact, in some cases it showed an increase in conversion.
The analysis of customer feedback through open-end questions is a crucial part of digital research. Closed-end questions provide focused, quantified data, but it is through open-end questions that organizations discover what customers really want to say to them. A common topic that respondents mention in open-ended feedback is the site's usability. Reading through the textual responses provides researchers insights about the issues that site visitors are experiencing.
Last year I started a three part series on the key pillars of Active Research beginning with Frameworks, the foundational support of Active Research. This is the second installment focusing on the next pillar of Active Research, engagement. In terms of Active Research, engagement is the act of engaging customers in the 'Moment of truth' across digital touch points to better understand their intentions and environment. Timing, sampling, and usability/design are all factors that significantly affect the characteristics of information received from a solicitation for feedback.
The 4Q Task Completion Framework was developed by iPerceptions, in collaboration with Avinash Kaushik, to provide companies a simple way for evaluating the online experience, determining visitors success, identifying barriers to task completion and quickly identifying areas of improvement.

4Q lets your visitors tell you what you're doing right and what you aren't, helping you identify the barriers on your site and the business logic for eliminating them. Continuous measurement allows you to measure the impact as you implement changes.
Move from data about "visits" and "visitors" to a clear understanding of why people are visiting. See their satisfaction levels with their experience, whether they were able to complete their tasks, in their own words. Next, use these insights to align your strategies and tactics to accomplish your online goals.
4Q takes the guesswork out of website optimization by letting your visitors tell you what they want to accomplish and how to satisfy their needs.
"If I could only pick one web analytics metric it would have to be Task Completion Rate, it is quite simply magnificent in its ability to deliver insights. There is perhaps no other tool that can deliver that metric easier or better than 4Q."

These healthy brownies taste great even though they're full of nutritious ingredients. I had a group of third grade boys over the other day, and I decided to feed them these. I love the satisfaction of hearing them ask for another brownie. If I had told them the list of ingredients included dates, bananas, and coconut oil, I'm guessing they wouldn't have responded so well. I must admit that my daughter, who has a very discerning palate, looked at me suspiciously as soon as she took a bite. "Is there avocado in this?" she asked accusingly. I said no, and she pointed at the tiniest speck of a date and said, "Then what's this?" I told her that was some of the sweetener. She went on to eat the whole thing, and she asked for another one later.
Healthy Brownies Recipe
1 cup gluten-free flour or white whole wheat flour
¼ cup cocoa powder
½ tsp. salt
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate (single ingredient: chocolate)
2/3 cup coconut oil
4 Medjool dates
½ ripe banana
¾ cup maple syrup
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a 7 x 11 or 9 x 13 inch pan with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Melt the chocolate and the coconut oil. Cool slightly.
- Boil 2 cups of water in a small saucepan. Simmer the dates for about 5 minutes to soften them.
- In a food processor or blender, puree the dates and the banana.
- In a large bowl, combine the maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla. Add the dates, bananas, melted chocolate and coconut oil. Stir to combine well.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. Transfer the batter to the baking pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Don't overcook them or they will be dry.
Price Breakdown
This batch cost $5.81 to make with gluten-free flour, or $.39 per brownie. Healthy brownies are a delicious treat to serve any crowd, especially a group of hungry children after a long day at school.
Note: I get a lot of questions about substituting whole wheat flour for gluten-free flour, or vice versa. In most of my recipes, you can interchange white whole wheat flour with gluten-free flour and the results will be equally delicious. Whole wheat flour tends to be a bit thirstier, so you may want to add an extra tablespoon of liquid if you're going from a gluten-free recipe to a whole wheat version.

…I mean, it's July, right?
You know you suck at park skiing when you're too pussy to wear a tee shirt and no gloves in the spring because you're worried about getting rug burn and cold hands. I'll be the first to admit as much so the rest of you cowards don't have to.
At the end of the calendar year, we here at BroBomb like to recap all the rad dads, moves, and movies that we're paid witness to over the past twelve months. We've seen a host of ams come up this year and put out incredible edits with discernible style. We've seen bigger names changing the game, and new companies that are doing the same (I really don't know why this rhyming thing is coming so naturally today. Just go with it). It's time for us (Jon Hartley, Matt Barber, and Ryan Dunfee) to recognize our favorite people and crews from this past year. In no particular order, it's the Top 10 of 2012.
Clayton Vila
Solely because of The Creep, which is undoubtedly the biggest leap in skiing urban in years.
Jordan Spohr
His tech skills and finger flips were the most original tricks last season. Moment should put everything into this kid. He's also probably the most posted dude on BroBomb in 2012.
Driven to post this out of popular demand (4 Facebook likes and 2 comments), I present the Hood Crew's "freed?" I wish I'd gotten on it earlier; someone else are already claimed first and won 4 grams of mushrooms from the Crew. Guess we're gonna have to step up our schwag program…
In this edit, witness Forster Meeks and the rest of his friends I don't know, a cameo by the infamous Scummitz Inn, real scum-level Hood squatting in the woods, girl getting hosed down with Apple Jacks, 40′s, and 2% milk, dirty hip hop, and all the jibbing on Palmer Glacier Windells WON'T want you to see.

Why Strikeforce Won't Survive Much Longer
By Brian Lopez-Benchimol ,
For a time, Strikeforce became the UFC's most viable and threatening rival in the world of mixed martial arts.
Key signings of Dan Henderson and heavyweight great Fedor Emelianenko set the San Jose based promotion above most others.
During the height of their success, Strikeforce housed the likes of Alistair Overeem, Cung Le and the infamous and fan-friendly Nick Diaz.
Diaz, a Stockton, Calif., native, became the organization's welterweight champion. He defended the title a record three times with aesthetically pleasing performances against KJ Noons, Evangelista Santos and Paul Daley.
With the Gracie Fighter at the helm, Strikeforce enjoyed success in the Showtime ratings as well, with the enigmatic fighter averaging over 500k in his final two appearances with the promotion.
Though Diaz was arguably the most recognizable fighter of the bunch, it was the mix of the top tier talent that Strikeforce housed under one roof that made it such a threat to the UFC.
What you couldn't find in the Octagon, you better believe the Hexagon was willing to supplement with consistently exciting bouts.
Since Zuffa, the subsidiary of the UFC, purchased the fledgling promotion last year, a bevy of talent has since transitioned from Strikeforce to its sister organization.
Once having cultivated seven champions under their regime, Strikeforce now, only has three, with Overeem, Diaz and Henderson—all titleholders for the organization—having parted ways to enjoy the limelight of the UFC.
How much longer will Strikeforce continue to trudge along? It's hard to say.
But with fewer and fewer big named talents gracing the cage and the rocky relationship between that of UFC head honcho Dana White and Showtime, things are all downhill from here.

What particular aspects of Taiji really interest you most today?
"Only the mind and beyond interest me. Teaching how to bring the body under the control of the mind is my chosen area in which to help people. Personally, as the mind goes deeper towards its source, my interest is gathered in by that process. Health and self defence are very minor interests."

i dont get this ! how do u call a guy who played for literally one football team an class him as the best player in the world ? simply this is wat football comes up to . a bunch of fans who know nothing abt the game an jus see a player or hear abt him an they rate him (bandwagon fans) messi isnt the best an would neva be , he can only play wit xavi an inesta . took him 5 year to build dat in barcelona . until he goes to at least 2 other leagues an do sum then talk . o an scores for argentina in decisive match . till den u can say wat u want . ronaldo is much more complete an he does everything , hes one of the best an most skillfull fowards/right winger. u rate players by position . c ronaldo dominated every league he played for . portugese english an now spanish , an plays well for his country , dat is outstanding ... an by the way newls oldboys isnt a team . more like back yard soccer ) my point is cleared ,. stop ratin messi hes over rated wake up
Great for football in India, we need more friendlies with major foreign football powers there. Unfortunately not so good for football in general, Argentina looking very bland.
for 1,20,000 people it was a poor match. They wanted to see Argentina winning by atleast 5-0, Messi scoring hattrick because the ticket price was very high on the poor country like us.
i know he is not at his best 4 argentina but he is quite good!!! one of da reasons why it looks like that is the wasteful finnishin of the forwards around messi ..... higuain and di maria are totally different players when they play for real madrid why isnt any1 blaming them? lol.... ppl need to stop tlkin bout he is not gudd without xavi and iniesta as he has 53 golas and 25 asissts da last time i check!.... he assissted iniesta 2 score in the cup 2 !!! lol
have 2 say this was a poor game. I was thr 2 c it n ppl only got excited when messi got the ball or was taking a corner. Argentina will hav 2 do a lot better 2 hav a realistic chance in 2014. also proves tht messi is less effective without xavi, iniesta n co. behind him feeding the ball.
For the people in Calcutta the result somewhat important. The most important aspect of this game was Calcuttans got to see Messi... 75,000 people in that stadium.
I was thr 2 c the match n hav 2 say it was quiet boring. all the hype was abt messi n he somewhat performed 2 his capabilities. I dont think the ppl here care which team is playing all long as they get 2 c some superstars playing that is all tht matters..
@AntonioD, you must be a messi hater ahahahhaha coz he scored on u guys in the CL finals.. what a hater. How can you hate messi man? the most humble "best player in the world" there ever was.
Argentina has been sucking a lot lately at international play, just look at the recent Copa America.

I used to think going with the flow was the way I wanted my style. But I have found that I want a new style. What my new style is called: I dont give a shit what anyone thinks of what I am wearing right now because I like it.


text: This painting is part of my 'Poetry of the Senses,' and is a flavor painting. Each color in the painting represents a paticular flavor found in a Coca-Cola. The colors are meticulously chosen for their ability to interact with the other colors in the precise way that the flavors interact with one another. This painting is actually done on three seperate panes of glass that are seperated from each other by a speacially built frame. This gives the painting much deeper depth allowing the light much more penetrating power through the layers of translucent paint. Prints will be available soon.

Chrysler, don't ever discontinue it; just get the mechanics right
So far, I've noticed a few things wrong; not really major, just things that bother me.
Leather seats are starting to crack slightly. Possibly due to sun over-exposure from previous owner (s).
Steering is slightly loose, meaning I have to turn the wheel to about the 1:30 position before it will "grip" the axle and turn the tires right, and about the 11 position before it will turn them left. I believe some of the steering hardware is worn, but I haven't had it checked yet. Very annoying considering our freeways are thin, so if you're driving next to someone, it's hard to keep the car in line.
The car frequently (as was the case with my last Sebring) seems to need wheel balancing, as evident by the shaking that constantly occurs at high speeds.
Something must be wrong with the gas gauge, because it's ALWAYS moving. My friend's Hyundai's gas needle is frozen, it rarely moves, if ever. I know it's better gas mileage, but come on.
General Comments:
I can admit that I love the Sebring. This is my second, and I like this one even more than the first.
It's not for everyone, though. I've yet to run into too many people who could see themselves driving the car. They admire it, they comment on it, but they couldn't drive it themselves.
A lot of people say it's a "woman's" car, and I wholeheartedly disagree. I say it's a professional's car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
Review Date: 2nd October, 2004

Please for safety's sake, get your front end fixed.
It sounds like you might need new tie rods.

"so far so good"
on by kimmy2010Pros light weight, nice color, easy to use for some like me who is just starting to use smartphones
Cons a little hard to hear others talk, very sensitive keyboard for texting
Summary Good price and a good phone if you are not looking for something super high tech.
"Best Android for MetroPCS"
on by JLMEZA85Pros 2.3 Gingerbread, 3.5" Display, 800mhz processor, light weight
Cons 3.2 Camera
Summary For the money, is an excellent phone. The only downside to these androids is the talk time, 3hrs. I wish they came with a better camera too, 3.2mp is mediocre, but I guess thats one of the reasons the phone is not that expensive.
"Pretty nice, fast phone with a good touchscreen."
on by toakaPros Camera with auto-focus; sensitive touchscreen; 800 MHz processor; nicely-sized screen; very comfortable in my hands, regardless of their tiny size; fits iPod earphones; 2.3 gingerbread; gorilla glass; SD slot + camera button on the side of the phone
Cons No flash; touchscreen sometimes acts a bit weird; no phone button on the bottom; call quality is iffy
Summary An all-around good phone. It's definitely 100 times better than the Huawei M835 for only $20/$40 more. I plan on using it until it dies. The size is perfect for typing with tiny fingers.
"In love with my ADMIRE, So good I Admire it! :-)"
on by Quintrala92Pros Though I don't like the Metro internet speed, I love to use mt phone at home with my 5G Optimum boost speed. Cheap and good. The best for the price.Fairly good space, great in weight and the OS is amazing. Also, it comes with good and useful apps included
Cons The speed of Metro PCS wireless WiFi and the poor volume quality of on call volume. Also, camera is not too good.
"I got two, one for me and one for my girl."
on by MrRuslanPros I really love these phone. They are fast and feel well built. The speed is fast and i had no problems with software freezes or crashes what so ever. The sound is clear from the speaker and from the earpiece. Apps run fast. One click root available to remo
Cons Has to be charged every day.
Summary This is my first smart phone and for the price i paid I am a very happy customer.

Round Rock, Texas - Dell made across the board cuts on its computer and peripheral products this week.
The consumer will immediately see Dimension desktop computers reduced 6 percent and Inspiron notebooks cut 3 percent. Prices for the company's 17-inch flat panel monitors were lowered 20 percent to $399, while inkjet printers were dropped about 13 percent.
Dell also cut prices on its enterprise and medium-size business products.
The move came just one day after Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina blamed low PC prices for her company's poor performance during its third fiscal quarter.
'Our challenge in the personal systems business continues to be desktop, particularly in the U.S., where reduced volumes due to seasonality, and in some cases, our own overly aggressive pricing actions, negatively impacted gross margins,' said Fiorina,'We've already taken corrective pricing actions, and will return this business to profitability in Q4.'

| Anti-malware, Anti-virus, Anti-spyware First of all i would like to apologize if this topic is in wrong category, or it should not even be asked on this site. And second of all, please be patience i'm a noob looking for answers So whats all about? Well i'm meeting new terms here and i have no idea what they mean and what they do. And as anyone else i wanna be safe in this era of cyber-crime. So basically i know whats a anti-virus and a anti-spyware and that they can run together. Also i heard that 2 anti-virus don't do good but 2 anti-spyware do. So what i'm asking is, what is a anti-malware? Can a anti-malware, anti-virus, and anti-spyware run together? Could you suggest some good+free of those 3? Sorry for my bad English and being such a noob |

| Florin, you might take interest in this thread, though it may be quite a bit of reading: http://www.sevenforums.com/system-se...nti-virus.html It is there that they discuss all kinds of different antiviruses and coupled security software. I personally only use Microsoft Security Essentials, but I have used it along with Malwarebytes for added security in the past. Basically, you could have your system completely locked down with lots of extra security, but in some cases it becomes a hassle because of how much your computer becomes protected and overly secured. If you prefer a speedy computer over security, generally you use less security software, but if it is the other way around, you will want beefier security software which may slow things down slightly. That link I've provided will have most everything you will need. |

| Hi, FlorinSabin. Your English is just fine! Unfortunately, the terms are indeed very confusing and even more so because some antivirus programs are referred to as anti-malware (i.e., Microsoft Security Essentials which is an antivirus software)! Malware is the word used to describe "malicious software". Examples of anti-malware software programs are Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM) and SUPERAntispyware (SAS). My preferences is Malwarebytes, particularly since SAS was sold to Support.com. |

| Florin, you might take interest in this thread, though it may be quite a bit of reading: http://www.sevenforums.com/system-se...nti-virus.html Can i use MBAM with MSE and SAS? Or is this even an option? |

| To uninstall Norton, Run this tool provided by them: https://www-secure.symantec.com/nort...=1&pvid=f-home Then install MSE again. Yes, MBAM can be used along side MSE Is it Sas that is the overly powerful antispyware software? If it is, be very careful if you decide to use it, because I believe it could potentially find a good program and mark it as suspicious (Although many antiviruses often have the same problem, don't they?). |

| If this is helping you, it is fine. Sometimes moderators will ask you to go back on topic if you start speaking of non-helpful things, such as what you've done today. There is a "Chillout Room" for that sort of talk. I appologize for mixing up the languages, but I know you got the idea. If you'll notice, both Google and Bing have slightly different translations. Sometimes using both can be helpful in understanding what was written. But only use them if the translators are actually helpful; I only posted it because I thought you might find it handy. If you've any other questions, feel free to ask! |

User Review: Leki Thermolite Aergon XL Antishock
Price Paid: $150
First I would like to say that I used to be opposed to trekking poles. To me they seemed like a waste of time, weight, and money. I wouldn't even consider buying a cheapo $20 pair from Wal-Mart let alone blow $150 on some supposedly lightweight, aircraft grade carbon shafted, anti-shock poles or whatever they say to sell poles these days.
Whatever the reason, one day I saw the Thermolite Aergon XL Antishocks in my local outdoor gear shop and I was drawn to them. I don't know why. They had one on display and I grabbed it. It fit my hand like a glove. It was perfect. I walked to the counter, dished out 150 smackers, and left the store in a daze.
I got outside and realized, "I hate trekking poles. Why did I just drop $150 dollars on a pair?" Well, I can tell you that these poles are worth every stinking penny.
I recently took these poles with me on a trip in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in Colorado and they made the hike up the mountain seem like a breeze. I only used one and my girlfriend used the other. The carbide tips grabbed rocks like glue and never slid, even in the continued downpour. Once we got to our destination they made setting up my MSR E-Wing shelter so much easier.
On the way down I used both poles as my girlfriend didn't want to use one. They made the trip down so much easier on the body. My balance was greater and I felt like a mountain goat hopping down the rocky trail. The grips offer plenty of airflow and I didn't get sweaty palms the entire trip.
The antishock is a great feature that helps when you're constantly slamming poles into the ground up and down mountains. Leki knows what they are doing. These are great poles and I would definitely buy these poles again. Not a doubt in my mind.
