Do you think Wilmington should have canceled a film permit because the shoot was rumored to include public nudity?Rumored: No. Confirmed: YesSubmitted by Guest 10101 (not verified) on Wed, 12/12/2012 - 10:04am.
All the city had to do was ask the students to sign off on the specifics of the scene. Why base the decision on a rumor? »
SpecificsSubmitted by Guester (not verified) on Wed, 12/12/2012 - 2:25pm.
It's my understanding that the specifics of the scene were the reason the city would not sign off on the permit. Public nudity with simulated sex on a {very busy} public road is a questionable request at best. »
Incorrect specificsSubmitted by J (not verified) on Sun, 12/16/2012 - 3:42pm.
There was to be no full nudity and it was on an abandon dead end of a street...not a busy public road. Also the city did sign off on the permit, they just later revoked it the day before the shoot. »

HOUSTON (AP) - Houston Rockets star James Harden has been diagnosed with strep throat and is still expected to play Friday night in Game 6 against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Harden had what the team called flu-like symptoms on Wednesday, but he scored 31 points with seven 3-pointers to lead the Rockets to a 107-100 win in Game 5. The team says Harden was treated by doctors for the condition Thursday afternoon.
Point guard Jeremy Lin is also expected to play after missing the last two games with a chest bruise. Lin went through shoot-around this morning, and head coach Kevin McHale says he will come off the bench for Game 6.
The Rockets have cut the lead in the series to 3-2 and are trying to become the first team in NBA history to win a best-of-seven playoff series after trailing 3-0.

The State of Franklin (also the Free Republic of Franklin or the State of Frankland[1]) was an unrecognized, autonomous "territory" located in what is today eastern Tennessee. Franklin was created in 1784 from part of the territory west of the Appalachian Mountains that had been offered by North Carolina as a cession to Congress to help pay off debts related to the American War for Independence. It was founded with the intent of becoming the fourteenth state of the new United States.
Franklin's first capital was Jonesborough. After the summer of 1785, the government of Franklin (which was by then based in Greeneville), ruled as a "parallel government" running alongside (but not harmoniously with) a re-established North Carolina bureaucracy. Franklin was never admitted into the union. The extra-legal state existed for only about four and a half years, ostensibly as a republic, after which North Carolina re-assumed full control of the area.
The creation of Franklin is novel, in that it resulted from both a cession (an offering from North Carolina to Congress) and a secession (seceding from North Carolina, when its offer to Congress was not acted upon, and the original cession was rescinded).
Cession and rescission[edit]
Franklin's support[edit]
Congress was heavily in debt at the close of the American War for Independence. In April 1784, the state of North Carolina voted "to give Congress the 29,000,000 acres (12,000,000 ha)[2] lying between the Allegheny Mountains" (as the entire Appalachian range was then called) "and the Mississippi River" to help offset its war debts.[3] This area was a large part of what had been the Washington District (usually referred to simply as the "Western Counties").[4] The cession had a stipulation that Congress would have to accept responsibility for the area within two years, which, for varying reasons, it was reluctant to do. The cession effectively left the western settlements of North Carolina alone in dealing with the Cherokee of the area, many of whom had not yet made peace with the new nation. These developments were not welcomed by the frontiersmen who had gained a foothold on the western Cumberland River at Fort Nashborough (now Nashville), or the Overmountain Men of the old Watauga Association.[5] Inhabitants of the region feared that the cash-starved Legislature might even be desperate enough to sell the frontier territory to a competing foreign power (such as France or Spain).[3]
North Carolina's reluctance[edit]
A few months later, fearing the land would not be used for its intended purpose of paying the debts of Congress, and coupled with the loss of economic opportunities, a newly elected North Carolina Legislature rescinded the offer of cession. It re-asserted its claim to the remote western district. The North Carolina lawmakers ordered judges to hold court in the western counties and arranged to enroll a brigade of soldiers for defense, appointing John Sevier to form it.[3]
Secessionist movement[edit]
Increasing dissatisfaction with North Carolina's governance led to the frontiersmen's calls to establish a separate, secure, and independent state. On August 23, 1784, delegates from the North Carolina counties of Washington (which at the time included present day Carter County), Sullivan, Spencer (now Hawkins County) and Greene — all counties in present-day Tennessee — convened in the town of Jonesborough and declared the lands independent of the State of North Carolina. Leaders were duly elected. John Sevier reluctantly became Governor; Landon Carter, Speaker of the Senate; William Cage, first Speaker of the House of Representatives; and David Campbell, Judge of the Superior Court. Thomas Talbot served as Senate clerk, while Thomas Chapman served as clerk of the House. The delegates were called to a constitutional convention held at Jonesborough in December of that year. They drafted a constitution that excluded lawyers, doctors and preachers as candidates for election to the legislature. The constitution was defeated in referendum. Afterward, the area continued to operate under tenets of the North Carolina state constitution.[6]
Attempt at statehood[edit]
On May 16, 1785, a delegation submitted a petition for statehood to Congress. Seven states voted to admit what would have been the 14th federal state under the proposed name of "Frankland". This was less than the two-thirds majority required under the Articles of Confederation. The following month, the Franklin government convened to address their options and to replace the vacancy at Speaker of the House, which had been held by William Cage. They elected Joseph Hardin to the position of Speaker of the House. In an attempt to curry favor for their cause, delegation leaders changed the "official" name of the area to "Franklin" (ostensibly after Benjamin Franklin). Sevier even tried to persuade Franklin to support their cause, but he declined, writing:
...I am sensible of the honor which your Excellency and your council thereby do me. But being in Europe when your State was formed, I am too little acquainted with the circumstances to be able to offer you anything just now that may be of importance, since everything material that regards your welfare will doubtless have occurred to yourselves. ...I will endeavor to inform myself more perfectly of your affairs by inquiry and searching the records of Congress and if anything should occur to me that I think may be useful to you, you shall hear from me thereupon.
—Benjamin Franklin, Letter to Governor John Sevier, 1787[7]
Independent republic[edit]
After the failed statehood attempt (and still at odds with North Carolina over taxation, protection, and other issues), Franklin operated as a de facto independent republic.[4] Up to this point, the government had been assembling at Jonesborough, mere city-blocks from the rival, North Carolina-backed, seat of government. Because of this, Greeneville was declared the new capital. The first legislature met there in December 1785. At Greeneville, the delegates adopted a permanent constitution, known as the "Holston Constitution,"[6] (and heavily modeled on that of North Carolina). John Sevier also proposed to commission a Franklin state flag, but it was never designed.
The new legislature made peace treaties with the Indian tribes in the area (with few exceptions, the most notable being the Chickamauga Cherokee). It opened courts, incorporated and annexed five new counties (see map below), and fixed taxes and officers' salaries.[6] Barter became the economic system de jure, with anything in common use among the people allowed in payment to settle debts, including corn, tobacco, apple brandy, and skins. (Sevier was often paid in deer hides). Federal or foreign money was accepted. All citizens were granted a two-year reprieve on paying taxes, but the lack of hard currency and economic infrastructure slowed development and often created confusion.
Franklin's end[edit]
The year 1786 was the beginning of the end of the small state, with several key residents and supporters of the state withdrawing their support in favor of a newly interested North Carolina.[4] Until then, Franklin did not have the benefit of either the national army or the North Carolina militia. In late 1786, North Carolina offered to waive all back taxes if Franklin would reunite with its government. When this offer was popularly rejected, North Carolina moved in with troops, in 1787, under the leadership of Col. John Tipton (great-uncle of future Senator from Indiana John Tipton) and re-established its own courts, jails and government at Jonesborough. The two rival administrations competed side by side. The meeting of the Franklin legislature in September 1787, was its last.[4] At the end of 1787, loyalties remained divided among residents, and coming to a head on February 29, 1788, when Sevier and a group of his supporters attacked Tipton and his supporters at Tipton's farm in the "Battle of Franklin".[8] Sevier and his men were defeated.
In these same years, 1787 and 1788, the "Franklinites" expanded westward toward the Cumberland Mountains by forcibly seizing land from the Chickamauga Cherokee, and the actual frontier shifted often back and forth throughout the Chickamauga Wars.
The Watauga settlement had originally been acquired by lease from the Cherokee Nation. The Cherokee claim to sovereignty over much of the area of Franklin, though already de facto occupied by whites, was maintained at the 1785 Treaty of Hopewell, and they did not formally relinquish their claim to this territory until July 1791 at the Treaty of Holston.[9]
Frontier intrigues[edit]
In late March 1788, the Chickamauga, Chickasaw and other tribes collectively began to attack American frontier settlements in Franklin. A desperate Sevier sought a loan from the Spanish government. With help from Dr. James White (who was later found to be a paid agent of Spain's), he attempted to place Franklin under Spanish rule. Opposed to any foreign nation gaining a foothold in Franklin, North Carolina officials arrested Sevier in August 1788. Sevier's supporters quickly freed him from the local jail and retreated to "Lesser Franklin" (the area south of the French Broad River). In February 1789,[10] Sevier, and the last holdouts of the "Lost State," swore oaths of allegiance to North Carolina after turning themselves in.[10] North Carolina sent their militia to aid in driving out the Cherokee and Chickasaw.
By early 1789, the government of the State of Franklin had collapsed entirely and the territory was firmly back under the control of North Carolina. Soon thereafter, North Carolina once again ceded the area to the federal government to form the Southwest Territory, the pre-cursor to the State of Tennessee. Sevier was elected in 1790 to the US Congress to represent the territory, and became Tennessee's first governor, in 1796. John Tipton signed the Tennessee Constitution as the representative from Washington County.
Notable Franklinites[edit]
- William Cocke (1748 – August 22, 1828) American lawyer, pioneer, and statesman.
- David "Davy" Crockett (August 17, 1786 – March 6, 1836) Famed frontiersman and statesman, born in Greene County[11]
- Samuel Doak (1749–1830) Presbyterian minister, pioneer, founded earliest schools and churches in East Tennessee. Delegate to the "Lost State" of Franklin which convened in Greeneville.[12]
- Col. Joseph Hardin (1734–1801) Speaker of the House for the State of Franklin; trustee of Greeneville (now Tusculum) College.[13]
- Col. John Sevier (1745 - 1815) Chief-executive of Franklin; first governor of Tennessee.[14]
- Gen. James White (1747 – August 14, 1821) American pioneer and soldier who founded Knoxville, Tennessee.[15]
Tipton's farm has been preserved as the Tipton-Haynes State Historic Site in Johnson City, Tennessee.
Many businesses in the State of Franklin use that name to keep the legacy alive, such as the "State of Franklin Bank", based in Johnson City, Tennessee. One of the main thoroughfares in Johnson City is named "State of Franklin Road", which runs next to East Tennessee State University. The State of Franklin was mentioned in the History channel documentary series How the States Got Their Shapes as a one of the many "ghost states" of America.
In law school examinations (and occasionally state bar tests), a fictional "State of Franklin" is used as a placeholder name for a generic state, often the one in which the property of Blackacre is located. This way, variations in existing state law do not complicate the theoretical legal issues arising from the property disputes. By convention, Blackacre is located in Acre County, Franklin.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (347 votes).
In short: It was worth going out there to do a Half in preparation for a marathon.Date of review: March 2, 2010
In short: Wet, windy, hilly and a really good raceIn full: 3rd time I've done this race and it's always good. Challenging course, no chance of a PB unless it's your first one or you're much fitter than you've ever been. But great fun, good marshalls, great goodie bag - medal, lucozade sport and a mars bar and that's all I want! Well done David again for getting the event so well organised in such tricky conditions, and for getting the results to us so quickly.See you next year.Date of review: March 2, 2010
In short: Hilly and wet this year!Date of review: March 2, 2010
In short: great marshals & lovely catering in clubhouse -- despite the horrendous rainIn full: great marshals & lovely catering in clubhouse -- despite the horrendous rainthanks for routing us around the huge puddle at the start as well! This puddle made me think i was at Benfleet 15 again ...well done organisersDate of review: March 1, 2010
In short: david h is a starIn full: David You are a star! dont beat yourself up re problems yesterday, it was a bit on the extreme side. i have done the race twice before with ok weather and it was fine. you were victims as we runners were, of not too nice conditions. maybe chip timing next year but just add it to the entry fee. those precious people, re times, can then decide if worth it. for many its training ground for london or like me for other marathons if dont get in to london (im my case brighton) so the support would still be there if it means another fiver for chip timing. or mad as it seems offer punters the choice. most of us are more than capable of starting our watch as we cross the line. its bloody obvious how hard you work to make this excellent race work and you and the absolutely brilliant team of dedicated marshalls worked your arse off yday (one poor soul at 11m was fab but was more cheered when i gave her a few of my, much needed at that time, energy boosting sweets). the marshalls were amazing and me and several others around me shouted our thanks. yes its a race and i know to some purists that means fuss potting over split second/2012 style olympic timing. sod em david the rest of us just need the good work out you give us for upcoming 26 milers. cheers mate, dont fret and see you next year. Date of review: March 1, 2010
In short: Great hilly courseIn full: Local race for me which takes in lots of hills I train on. Was great to have a chance to run against hills and the wind this time - felt like a proper half.I didn't have trouble at the start and got away fine.Marshalls did their best in awful weather.Date of review: March 1, 2010
In short: Quit MoaningIn full: My first HM, infact my first race, absolutely loved it, cold, wet, hilly, challenging, wouldnt of wanted it any other way. So what if there was a big puddle, you were hardly gonna be keeping your trainers dry anyway.. MAN UPDate of review: March 1, 2010
In short: Very hilly!!! was very tough, didnt help pouring with rain !Date of review: March 1, 2010
In short: Decent local race, but too much rain and too few marshalls!In full: This is a fairly local race to me, but it's the first time I've done it. It was friendly enough, with some good challenging undulations, but the torrential rain and below par organisation didn't help. There just weren't enough marshalls on what were busy suburban roads and some drivers behaved idiotically. But in fairness the rain was heavy and persistent and made everything more difficult. The start could have been better and I really didn't appreciate having to wade through a huge puddle to get from the track to the car park. I do think the race would benefit from a decent chip timed start. All in all not a bad race, but I won't be rushing back next year! Date of review: March 1, 2010
In short: Toughish hills made tougher in the rain.In full: I would definitly agree with earlier comments in that the marshalls put on a brave effort in torrential rain.Downside is that the start could have been better, even without the rain there would have been horrendous bottlenecks coming off the track. In addition to that, inadequate toilet facilities made it a race for the line.On the upside, a testing course which makes a good pre London run out. Special thanks goes to the Race Director who has been honest and sincere enough to take critiscism on the chin and promise to review things for next year.Final comment is don't worry about the chip timing for next year...it will only add to the cost of a race which currently offers good value for money.TMMDate of review: March 1, 2010

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"I personalized the message on these stickers to label the homemade favors for our wedding. They looked very professional and are unique. Couldn't have hoped for more. Plush they are the perfect size for the jars I bought!"
"I'm throwing my sister's bridal shower and was looking for a unique party favor. I decided it would be nice to give out mini bottles of her favorite kind of wine since all the shower attendants are over the age of 21. I wanted to give the bottles a personal touch. These labels were available in the perfect color to match the wine cap and the perfect size for the petite bottle size. Using the site to personalize the labels was super easy. I was promptly sent a confirmation e-mail to confirm and approve that all the information was correct. The labels arrived on time. The colors shown on the site were the exact same colors I got in person and they were printed on nice quality adhesive paper with a smooth-to-the-touch finish. I think the wine bottles turned out great! I highly recommend these labels regardless of how you intend to use them. You won't be sorry."
"I thought this item was a favor tag. It is an adhesive sticker. It did not work for my use, so I returned them. You could use them for the back of the envelope to seal them."
"I needed this customized with different colors than what was being shown and they were very quick to answer my questions and send me a proof with the changes that I wanted. The quality of the product was amazing! It turned out exactly as shown, even better. People at the shower were amazed at the uniqueness of the tags."
"I'm excited to use these stickers. I ordered the invitation sample in purple, which as those reviews said is lighter than the computer screen shows. I opted not to do a custom color because the stickers and address labels be custom. The design is so pretty I actually don't mind that it's more of a pink tone. I'm going to mount these stickers on a slightly bigger square that compliments the color than use that to close the Pocketfolds I'm ordering."

Pottery Barn Kids Spring 2013 Collection 7 Fabulous Finds From Pottery Barn Kids' Spring Catalog by Rebecca M Gruber 2/07/13 6 Reactions 6 Shares Print 1 1 4 0 0 Are you counting down the days until Spring? We are, and the arrival of the Spring Pottery Barn Kids catalog has us dreaming of warmer days, lighter fabrics, and brighter colors. We got a sneak peek at some of the catalog's newest bedding collections and Easter finds, and we couldn't be more excited. Aside from the sweet designs and new patterns, we can't wait to steal some of the design details used in the photo shoots. Click through to see some of the updates we just might have to copy from the upcoming catalog. What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The new Mia crib bedding collection is a fun mix of traditional (butterflies) and modern (clusters of embroidered flowers, starbursts, etc.). But what really caught my attention is the mix of old and new. The placement of a Senegalese storage basket next to the more eclectic crib and traditional mirror wall hangings creates a sophisticated, yet not stuffy, room for a lil one. 1 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Your big boy's room may already be the final frontier when it comes to keeping a clean house, and now it can look like that even when it's clean. We love the new Nathan bedding collection complete with planets, stars, and even the requisite alien. What also drew me to this room is the solar system mobile hanging from the ceiling. Most mamas move away from mobiles when tots leave their cribs (or before!), but this one helps complete the room and carry the space theme up to the ceiling. 2 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Classic literature is certainly making a comeback, and the new Phoebe bedding collection is the perfect example of it with its Princess and the Pea theme. With rickrack and ruffle detailing, as well as sketches from the story, it is a sweet addition to a lil girl's room. The gauzy hanging canopy helps contribute to the princess feel without making the room feel overdone. 3 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The gender-neutral Brooks nursery collection is a sweet take on the safari theme. Rather than the traditional khaki and green, this pastel blue and green set looks soft in the modern room, while the map-adorned wall is one that kids could grow into for years to come. 4 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Unexpected colors in lil ones' rooms always make me smile. The new Isabelle duvet cover does just that with its porcelain-blue coloring and Mexican textiles influence. Full of embroidered knots and vines, the bedding collection looks great among a sea of pink and purple finds. 6 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Pottery Barn Kids' Harper collection isn't new, but this beautifully styled room is. The gray and white theme (an extension of its gray and yellow room from the Fall) is the ultimate in cool decor. From the star-filled wall and chevron rug to the drum light and elephant rocker, this room is filled with ideas worthy of stealing for your own tot. 6 / 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We're having a bit of a love affair around here with Peter Rabbit. Beatrix Potter's beloved bunny is having a renaissance with a new collection at BabyGap and now an Easter table setting at Pottery Barn Kids. These Peter Rabbit Plates ($12 each) are ideal for your upcoming Easter celebrations and throughout the year. 7 / 7 1 1 4 0 0 Back to Homepage Read More Pottery Barn KidsKid ShoppingNurseriesKids Rooms Pottery Barn Kids Bring a Hedgehog Home! 11 Cute Finds For Your Nursery 1/17/13 Hello, Dolly! 10 Cool, Plush Dolls For Little Girls 1/02/13 8 Fun Finds From Pottery Barn Kids' Fall Sneak Peek 7/16/12 Tommy's Preppy Pool Birthday Party 6/28/12 Summer Must-Have: The Perfect Picnic Blanket 5/29/12 Good Day, Sunshine: Pottery Barn Kids Plans a Sunshine Baby Shower 1/22/12 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 0Reactions Link Love Mom forced to stop feeding baby homemade formula — BabyCenter Blog The easiest ways to save on organic food — The Stir A look inside Fergie's second baby shower — Celebrity Baby Scoop Danielle Jonas debuts her baby bump — People Moms & Babies 7 light and fresh recipes to take you through Summer — FitPregnancy Does where you live affect your risk for PPD? — The Bump Where to find the best deals on school supplies — Real Simple Now this is how you announce a pregnancy! — HuffPost Parents

Does it refer to 1 or 2? I think it's 1 considering the whole context. They wouldn't say the original sentence in terms of conditionals, I guess. 1 also seems not a perfect conditional structure, but it can be possible as a non-conditional clause and a conditional one can be combined. What do you think?
1. As I felt so lonely, I might have lost all hope.
2. If I had felt so lonely, I might have lost all hope.
pp97)There was a time in my life when I was feeling very lonely. I didn't think I had any friends. Every day I came home to an empty house with an empty heart. Feeling so lonely, I might have lost all hope. But my dog, Fluffy, was always at the door waiting for me. ...Those bad times passed eventually, but they would have been a lot more difficult if it had not been for my faithful companion, Fluffy.
Context is important. Please provide enough for us to be able to deal effectively with your question.

There's no 'if' about it. S/he felt lonely.

"River Deep – Mountain High" is a 1966 single by Ike & Tina Turner. Considered by producer Phil Spector to be his best work,[3] the single was successful in Europe, peaking at #3 in the United Kingdom, though it flopped on its original release in the United States. Spector claimed to be pleased with the response from the critics and his peers,[2] but he then withdrew from the music industry for two years, beginning his personal decline.
After Eric Burdon and the Animals covered the song in 1968, it was re-released a year later, and has since become one of Tina Turner's signature songs, though it charted even lower, "Bubbling Under" at #112.
In 1999, "River Deep – Mountain High" was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame.
Written by Spector, Jeff Barry, and Ellie Greenwich, "River Deep - Mountain High" was among the first recordings that Ike & Tina Turner did for Phil Spector's Philles Records. Spector was well aware of Ike Turner's controlling attitude in the studio, and resultantly drew up an unusual contract: the River Deep – Mountain High album and single would be credited to "Ike & Tina Turner", but Ike was paid $20,000[4] to stay away from the studio, and only Tina Turner's vocals would be used on record.[5]
The track was recorded using Spector's "Wall of Sound" production technique, cost a then-unheard-of $22,000, and required 21 session musicians and 21 background vocalists. Due to Spector's perfectionism in the studio, he made Turner sing the song over and over for several hours until he felt he had the perfect vocal take for the song. In the magazine Rolling Stone, an article about the song featured this passage: "I must have sung that 500,000 times," Tina later said. "I was drenched with sweat. I had to take my shirt off and stand there in my bra to sing."
The recording of the song was later dramatized for Tina Turner's biopic, What's Love Got to Do with It. At Ike Turner's 2007 funeral, Phil Spector chastised the film's depiction saying that he had a good relationship with Ike Turner and that the film was "garbage" stating that he insisted for Ike's name to be included on the recording despite the fact that executives of Spector's label Philles had only wanted Tina billed on the recording.[citation needed]
The single entered the lower end of the Billboard 100 and stopped at #88 on the pop charts. Even though it had better fortune in the United Kingdom, peaking at #3 in the singles charts on first release, Spector was so disillusioned that he ceased involvement in the recording industry totally for two years, and only intermittently returned to the studio after that; he effectively became a recluse and began to self-destruct.[6]
Ike Turner remarked that he felt the record did not do well in America because the sound was "pop or white", while Tina Turner's voice was R&B, so that "America mixes race in it" — though the writer Michael Billig speculated that although earlier records which had mixed black singers with a white pop sound had sold well, by 1966 the black political movement was encouraging African Americans to take a pride in their own culture, and "River Deep – Mountain High" was out of step with that movement.[7]
Later Rolling Stone was to put it at #33 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
George Harrison praised the record,[2] declaring it "a perfect record from start to finish. You couldn't improve on it"[citation needed] "River Deep - Mountain High" compared a woman's love and loyalty, respectively, to that which a child feels for a doll, and a puppy has for his master.
Cover versions[edit]
In 1967, Harry Nilsson (who had worked with Spector as a songwriter early in his career) released a cover version of the song on his first RCA Victor album, Pandemonium Shadow Show. This was followed by an epic ten-minute version recorded by Deep Purple for their 1968 album, The Book of Taliesyn. An edited version was released as a single in the United States and reached #53 in early 1969 and #42 on the Canadian RPM charts. It had a progressive rock sound to it, as Deep Purple had not yet adopted the hard rock sound for which they are most famous.
The original Ike and Tina Turner version of the song was re-released the same year to a more receptive public, and since then, has gained the recognition Spector wanted from the record. Numerous versions have been recorded since, including two different recordings by Ike and Tina Turner that do not feature Spector's "Wall of Sound" production style, as well as some by Tina Turner herself without Ike Turner.[citation needed]
Eric Burdon & The Animals recorded an extended version of the song, with additional musical sections and a heavily dramatized arrangement, for their 1968 album Love Is. An edited version was released as a single, and the full version also appears on their 1969 compilation The Greatest Hits of Eric Burdon and The Animals. In 1985, Burdon recorded a live version of it and released it in 1992 on "That's Live".
The Australian band, The Easybeats, did a cover version in 1967. Another cover version was by 2 of Clubs, a Cincinnati-based American female pop duo, which failed to chart.
The Shadows performed an instrumental version of this song in their 1970 album Shades of Rock.
The Bob Seger System did an extended cover version on their 1970 album Mongrel.
Also in 1970, the post-Diana Ross Supremes and The Four Tops released the most successful cover version to date. Produced by Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson, the single was one of several recordings that paired the two Motown groups. The Supremes/Four Tops cover, included on the 1970 LP The Magnificent 7, with its soaring vocals and string section, peaked at #7 on the soul chart and #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1971,[8] making it the highest-charting version of the song in the United States. Their version also peaked #11 on the UK Singles Chart and #25 on Netherlands' MegaCharts that same .[citation needed]
Katrina and the Waves did an upbeat version of the song in 1984 but it was not released on their main albums (the track appears as a bonus on some MP3 downloads of their first album).
This song was also featured in the 1985 Broadway musical, Leader of the Pack, based on the life of songwriter Ellie Greenwich. This version is sung by Darlene Love (who plays herself in the show) and is considered one of the most popular versions of the song.
The English synth pop duo Erasure covered the song on their 1988 album, The Innocents. The BBC extensively used the non-vocal section of the "Private Dance Mix" during the Seoul Olympic Games in that year.
The Flamin' Groovies also covered the song in early 1981. They recorded at Gold Star Studios as well for a French label, Underdog Records, and it can be found on their 1989 compilations Grease and Groovies Greatest Grooves.
Jimmy Barnes recorded a cover for his album Soul Deep. It is the closing track of the album.
Annie Lennox performed the song live in July 1992 on her MTV Unplugged special and released the audio track on the Walking on Broken Glass EP.
Neil Diamond released a version on his album Up on the Roof: Songs from the Brill Building in 1993.
The Eric Burdon–Brian Auger Band performed the song live and released it on Access All Areas in 1993.
A live cover was performed by Céline Dion on the Late Show with David Letterman in 1994, which resulted in a studio version, produced by Jim Steinman, for her extremely successful 1996 album Falling into You. Later, Dion performed it live on VH1 Divas Live concert in 1998 as the opening number of her part. She also performed this song from November 2006–December 2007 in her A New Day... show in Las Vegas. The song was also part of her 2008/9 Taking Chances World Tour, as well as her new Las Vegas show, Celine.
21st century[edit]
During a handful of 2006 concerts, the song was covered by Kettle Joe's Psychedelic Swamp Revue, who are now known as Donna Jean and the Tricksters.
Fefe Dobson sang a version of the song for the TV series American Dreams, where she portrayed Tina Turner. She later performed it at the 2010 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, on the occasion of the induction of song co-writers Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry.
On April 22, 2008, Mary Wilson (who recorded it as a Supreme with the Four Tops in 1971) took the stage with Australian vocal group Human Nature, on the Seven Network television show It Takes Two. They performed two duets from Human Nature's album, Get Ready: "It Takes Two" and "River Deep, Mountain High".
Meat Loaf sang a duet version of the song with former backup singer Karla Devito for his concert, Live at the Bottom Line.
The song was performed on the first season of Australian Idol by Cosima De Vito on the Top 3 60's show. De Vito withdrew from the competition on the following verdict show due to a throat condition, although it was later revealed that she would have had enough votes to progress through to the Grand Final.
The song was performed again on Australian Idol Season 3 by eventual runner-up Emily Williams on the Top 6 Motown show. The performance was very well received by the judges and audience and Williams was declared safe on the following verdict show.
The song was performed again on Australian Idol in Season 5 by Tarisai Vushe in the semi-finals and she progressed to the Top 12 the following night.
The song was covered in the Stewart Raffill film Standing Ovation.[9][10]
Nicola Roberts sang the song on Popstars The Rivals in 2002
West End star Jessie Buckley performed the song on BBC's "I'd Do Anything" in 2009.
Naya Rivera and Amber Riley covered a duet version of the song for an episode "Duets" on Glee in 2010,[11] which was featured on Glee: The Music, Volume 4. The cover reached #41 in the US and #45 in the UK.
American Idol season ten contestant Pia Toscano performed the song during Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Week, but was eliminated.
American Idol season eleven contestant Hollie Cavanagh performed the song during the Top 5.
Bonnie Tyler and Dolly Parton sing the song in live concerts as well.
Kelly Rowland and Amelia Lily sang it together on The X Factor UK 2011 final.

Tried copy and pasting from a 9 page thread on the Bullet but my tablet hates me so it didn't work....the numbers were dissapointing out of the box but got significantly better with some minor grinding....
Dart heads in general are very good quality thick high perf castings. But they do need a good going over to get them up to snuff from out of the box , as cast form. The SHP head is not the same as the Platinum,, Pro 1 stuff.
I would look at some other stuff before you buy. The nice thing is you have lots of choices and all winter to research. Any thought of using a spool on the street is a deal killer. Same with the flowmaster crap mufflers . These will kill the real power more than any thing. There are way better mufflers. Especially if you like to and plan on "Driving" your car. |
Calculate HP from Trap Speed

The Cedaredge public works department has reported to the board of trustees on the complaints about taste and odor of the town's drinking water. The report was made available at the trustees' Oct. 11 work session.
The cause of the taste and odor is "prolonged higher than normal temperatures this summer" which resulted in "several types of algae (having) the opportunity to grow exponentially" in the town's raw water supply reservoirs.
"There is no reason to be alarmed," the report states, adding "residents do not need to take extra precautions when drinking or using water."
Additional monitoring has been under way to check on the town's distribution system. "The results confirm that the source of the odor, which strongly affects taste, is the algae in the source water reservoirs prior to filtration and disinfection," says the report.
The report adds some suggestions and possible actions that the town can take for dealing with the problem:
• "Some people can sense the effects of the algae more distinctly. Any odor is less obvious when the water is cold, so refrigerating water to drink could help.
• "Fresh carbon filters are usually effective at removing certain odors from water, but we expect the raw water quality to improve in the next few weeks and there is nothing that needs to be done to improve the water safety."
• A proposed short-term solution; spend $5,000 to $10,000 on powered activated carbon and add it to treatment plant feedstocks.
• In the medium term; install a chemical feed system for adding potassium permanganate. The system would require extensive monitoring to prevent discoloration of water. This is called "a very viable option."
• A long-term option would be to dedicate more town resources to the ongoing program of maintaining, improving, and developing the fresh water springs on Grand Mesa.

Numbers tell the story. None rings truer than the girls basketball team at Newton-Conover.
The squad features eight players, sometimes seven given injuries.
Ike Williams, first-year coach for the Lady Red Devils, said heãs used the hurdle as a motivator.
ãI call them the ãCrazy Eight,ãã Williams said. ãThey are on their way to becoming the ãGreat Eight.ãã
The encouragement by their new coach is working.
The Lady Red Devils (15-3, 7-1) are in second place in the Catawba Valley 2A heading into Tuesdayãs pivotal home contest against the Lady Trojans of Bandys (17-0, 8-0).
Many players have learned to embrace the small numbers.
ãOur AAU team had eight players on it,ã said post player Kadesha Gibbs. ãItãs not really a big adjustment, as far as getting to play more. With eight people, you just learn to trust each other. Itãs easier for us to get to know each other and bond. Itãs only just the eight of us.ã
Williams said there are certain disadvantages that come with coaching such a small squad.
ãWe canãt scrimmage in practice,ã he said. ãA lot of times, the coaches and assistants act as players. Overall, we canãt ask for more from them. They are hard working. Weãre very proud of them.ã
Another disadvantage ã foul trouble.
The Lady Red Devils have only encountered this issue once ã against Hickory in the finals of the Catawba Valley Classic.
During that game, three N-C players garnered at least three fouls, including Gibbs with four.
ãCoach tells us that the more aggressive team is the one that sets the tone for the whole game,ã said guard Shynese Whitener. ãOnce someone gets their first or second foul, we have to step back a little bit and make the adjustment.ã
Itãs an issue that Williams tries not to focus on.
ãMy job is to coach them and keep them out of foul trouble,ã Williams said. ãWe will run multiple defenses if we have to. We donãt have the luxury, like some teams do, of getting one or two players in foul trouble. We donãt have any replacements. I try not to instill that in them. Eighty percent of our practices are on defense. Itãs going to happen sometimes, like the Hickory game. So far, weãve been lucky that we havenãt been in foul trouble, aside from that one game.ã
Itãs not just the Newton-Conover girls varsity team that is dealing with the issue of numbers.
The Lady Red Devilsã junior varsity squad is also around the same size.
ãWeãre rebuilding,ã Williams said. ãWe have quite a few players we thought would try out, but didnãt. In the beginning, everyone thought weãd finish fourth, fifth or lower in the conference. Thatãs why from the beginning of the season that we were the ãCrazy Eightã and we were going to do great things. Thatãs why our motto has been that. Weãre working hard to become the ãGreat Eight.ã The numbers will be back up next year. The players that arenãt on the train now wish they were. Iãm actually looking forward to that challenge.ã
While there are struggles, there are also advantages.
ãThe good part about it is that they know they are going to play,ã Williams said. ãThat motivates them more because teams that have 12-15 players and run out to a lead have their starters come out and they tend to reserve themselves. Our girls just go all out. Itãs hard to tone them down sometimes when we want to run some clock. When you tell them to shut it down, it is very difficult sometimes.ã
Whitener believes that the so-called numbers disadvantage is really a benefit for her team.
ãIt makes us want to work that much harder just because we only have each other,ã she said. ãPeople are counting us out just because our numbers.ã
Losing 56-48 on the road to Bandys on Dec. 15, Gibbs has high expectations for the second go-around.
ãIt should be a better game because our freshmen really donãt know the story behind the Bandys-Newton-Conover rivalry,ã she said. ãAfter the first game, they got a feel for what itãs like and what they need to do during the game.ã
Freshman Taylor Petty agrees.
ãLosing just made me want to beat them way more, especially at home,ã Petty said. ãBy the end of the game, I was ready to play them again.ã
Whitener said her team will try to make an emphatic statement Tuesday, which will carry this ãCrazy Eightã to greater things.
ãWe play them at home,ã she said. ãNo one beats us on our court.ã

Watchmaker: It's time for augmented reality
Wonder how that bright yellow watchband will look on your pasty wrist? Swiss watchmaker Tissot has launched an application that lets consumers try on various styles at home--digitally, in 3D.
Users just download the app, put on a cardboard cut-out watch template, and hold their wrist in front of a Webcam to try on watches and change models, colors, and styles from Tissot's Touch collection.
The app, which is compatible with PCs and Intel-based Macs, also lets consumers experiment with the touch-screen features on Tissot watches, including the diver functionality of the Sea-Touch model. As shoppers try on a … Read more

There are 6 million more people in the United States since the the last census and almost 100,000 more residents in the Bay State than in 2010.
The U.S. population is projected to increase to 315,091,138 on Jan. 1, the U.S. Census Bureau said Thursday.
The national increase represents a one-year increase of 2.2 million and a two-year jump of 6.34 million since the last census was taken in 2010. That's a 2 percent increase.
In Massachusetts, the 2012 census numbers puts the Bay State's population at 6.6 million, up by 98,515 individuals from April 2010.
It's an increase of 1.5 percent, and double the percentage increase of the rest the Northeast as a whole.
"We have some robust growth going on," Massachusetts Secretary William Galvin told The Republican. "We seem to be the one place in the Northeast that has some sustained growth."
The census numbers also showed more residents move away from Massachusetts compared to the previous year, too.
"We're not going to get back any congressional seats back any time soon," Galvin said. Massachusetts' growth spurt may help the state stave off the loss of yet another seat in 2020.
Massachusetts remains the 14th most populous state in the nation.
Galvin told The Republican, a better job at counting college students living in dorms in Massachusetts may have helped contributed somewhat to the higher population number.
The national, increase in population is attributed more to immigration than births.
Even as the number of births in the U.S. continued to edge lower, about 885,800 immigrants settled in the U.S. in the most recent year, which ended July 1. That was about 110,000 more than in the same period a year earlier, according to the census data.

Adecoagro SA Stock Downgraded (AGRO)
Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency). Companies with poor cash flow or high debt levels tend to earn lower ratings in our model. NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Adecoagro (NYSE:AGRO) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity, weak operating cash flow and feeble growth in its earnings per share.
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Food Products industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 109.3% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $29.58 million to -$2.77 million.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Food Products industry and the overall market, ADECOAGRO SA's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to $14.17 million or 52.83% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing the cash generation rate to the industry average, the firm's growth is significantly lower.
- ADECOAGRO SA has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, ADECOAGRO SA increased its bottom line by earning $0.49 versus $0.39 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 12.2% in earnings ($0.43 versus $0.49).
- 36.00% is the gross profit margin for ADECOAGRO SA which we consider to be strong. Despite the high profit margin, it has decreased significantly from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, AGRO's net profit margin of -1.70% significantly underperformed when compared to the industry average.
