Gay anthem
A gay anthem is a song that has become widely popular among, or has become identified with, the gay community, as referring to homosexual men, but some of these songs may also become anthems for the rest of the LGBT community.
The lyrics of gay anthems are often marked with hope against the odds, pride, unity, or defiance. UK LGBT rights charity Stonewall named Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" the most empowering song of the 2000s decade for LGBT people.[1]
Although every song is individual, the criteria for what makes a gay anthem has shown a trend among the years. In the book Queer, the following ten main themes were listed that are common among many, if not all gay anthems:[2]
- Big-voiced divas
Rather than particular songs, this area of gay anthems is more akin to a cult of personality of a large gay male following for some particular diva-style pop music vocalists who are almost always female gay icons. Modern examples include Cher, Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Donna Summer, Diana Ross, Christina Aguilera, Adele, P!nk, Evelyn "Champagne" King, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga.
- Overcoming hardship in love
Usually a narrative of a wronged lover who comes back stronger than before.
- You are not alone
Songs about coming together as a community or reassurance to the lonely that there are others like them out there.
- Throw your cares away
A carefree narrative about putting your troubles aside and partying.
- Hard-won self-esteem
Here, the theme involves fighting through oppression, darkness or fear to gain freedom, beauty or self-esteem.
- Celebrating unashamed sexuality
The theme here is of transcending cultural shame to celebrate one's sexual nature.
- Search for acceptance
Songs about a welcoming promised land where the dream of acceptance and belonging and hope lives.
- Torch song for the world weary
A narrative about being used, abused and surviving to tell the tale of lament.
- Love conquers all
Tales of not giving up on love despite seemingly insurmountable odds.
- No apologies
Here, the theme revolves around defiantly living one's life despite what others may want.

Dinosaurs - The Lost World is a stunning new, original exhibit developed by Cranbrook Institute of Science in collaboration with John and Jack Hankla, who have assembled one of the world's most significant private fossil collections, The Hankla Collection.
The Lost World features:
- More than 50 species of non-avian dinosaurs and contemporary marine reptiles, pterosaurs and birds (avian dinosaurs) from 20 Cretaceous rock formations in North America and Eurasia - many are newly described species never displayed in Michigan
- Over 60 complete skeletal mounts of research quality casts and several real skeletons, five types of fossil eggs, skin impressions, plants and invertebrates displayed in three galleries covering over 6,000 square feet
- A 36' long molded track way with the foot prints of four dinosaurs and traces of other contemporary animals, the only cast of its kind from the end of the dinosaur era in North America
- A 4' by 8' slab of sandstone loaded with real fossil bones preserved in coastal lagoon storm deposits, including numerous Edmontosaurus and T. rex bones and teeth
- A children's area with excavation activities, focusing on how paleontologists and geologists, plan, search for, collect and artistically restore the form of dinosaurs and other extinct organisms
- Special Dino Prep Lab days when visitors can help prepare real dinosaur fossils still in rock and field jackets from the Late Cretaceous Lance Formation collected from the Hankla Ranch in Wyoming
- Special Lectures by local and visiting paleontologists and geologists
- Gallery guides for visitors and special teacher guides available on-line, outlining key educational benchmarks for various grade levels, with QR codes and links to on-line data and images.
The primary focus of the exhibition is on the incredible diversity of dinosaurs, pterosaurs and marine reptiles of western North America during the Late Cretaceous Period. These animals lived in a super warm, lushly vegetated western Lost World landmass called Laramidia, which was isolated for 20 million years by a seaway extending through the center of North America, from the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic Ocean. Dinosaur faunas range from the north slope of Alaska to Mexico!
The main gallery is anchored by new specimens from the strata of southern Utah recently reviewed in Scientific American (March, 2012); including the newly described tyrannosaur Teratophoneus and the bizarre new ceratopsian Kosmoceratops bearing 15 horns on its head, along with the contemporary monstrous 30' crocodile Deinosuchus. Especially awe-inspiring is the newly discovered largest known specimen of the giant 22' long, armored tank-like ankylosaur Peloroplites.
Highlights of the Wyoming component from the Hankla ranch include: an adult hadrosaur, Edmontosaurus paired with a complete mounted skeleton of a juvenile; an awesome Struthiomimus nicknamed claws; the large marsupial Didelphadon, and a composite specimen representing the controversial predator Nanotyrannus.
The marine fauna of the seaway is anchored by a 33' foot long skeleton of a newly described species of the ferocious mosasaur Prognathodon accompanied by Archelon the world's largest turtle, and the diving bird Hesperornis. Four species of pterosaurs patrol the skies including Pteranodon longiceps with a 24' wingspan!
A special feature of Dinosaurs – The Lost World is a fascinating comparison between the Late Cretaceous dinosaurs of western North America with time equivalent dinosaur communities from Central Asia, highlighted by complete skeletal mounts of the terrifying Mongolian tyrannosaurs Tarbosaurus and Alioramus along with a pack of marauding velociraptors, and groups of fleeing conchoraprors, protoceratopsians, and psitaccosaurs.
In addition to the awe-inspiring newly discovered specimens and related activities, Dinosaurs – The Lost World is one of the most up to date exhibits featuring the current state of knowledge of this remarkable period in Earth history – with something for everyone!

The Big East Conference Tournament 2012 tips off Tuesday afternoon at Madison Square Garden, and this SB Nation New York StoryStream is the place to come for every tidbit of information. For a full schedule with results and updates of the bracket, click here.
The Louisville Cardinals may not enter the Big East Tournament as one of the favorites to win the crown, but there's no doubt that nobody wants to face them. The Cardinals (22-9, 10-8 Big East) shoot a lot of 3s and play extremely good defense. When the long-range shots are falling and the D is allowed to clamp down on opponents, Louisville maybe the toughest match up for anybody.
Head Coach: Rick Pitino, 11th season
One of the top coaches in the nation, Pitino has been around college basketball for nearly 40 years. He's made the Final Four with three schools; Providence, Kentucky and Louisville.
Team MVP: Kyle Kuric, senior guard/forward
When Kuric gets going, the Cardinals have a good chance of winning. He can get scorching hot from the perimeter, but every now and then disappears altogether. The Cardinals aren't exactly dependent on Kuric to score a lot in order to win, but he can put them on his back if need be.
Playing For: Seeding in the NCAA Tournament
Winning the Big East Tournament could see Louisville end up on the 3-line. A quick exit and they should be looking at a 6 seed.
Breakdown: Louisville doesn't have a go-to guy and isn't incredibly deep, but they get their scoring from all over the place. Senior Chris Smith is an x-factor type with his ability to get hot from behind the arc, but he's been struggling from the field as of late during the Cardinals' 2-4 finish. Sophomore center Gorgui Dieng nearly averages a double-double and gives the Cardinals a solid interior presence on both ends of the floor.
A key player for Louisville is point guard Peyton Siva, who has been an underachiever as a junior. Louisville expected a lot more out of him, and if they want to make any sort of noise in the Big East and NCAA Tournaments, Siva will need to be good. The Cardinals aren't expected to go very far, but Pitino knows what it takes to succeed in the postseason.
Big East Tournament Seed: No. 7, will played Tuesday's winner of No. 15 Providence Friars and No. 10 Seton Hall Pirates.

Polish composer Wojciech Kilar dies, aged 81
Monday - 12/30/2013, 6:04pm  ET
Associated Press
WARSAW, Poland (AP) -- Wojciech Kilar, a Polish pianist and composer of classical music and scores for many films, including Roman Polanski's Oscar-winning "The Pianist" and Francis Ford Coppola's "Bram Stoker's Dracula," died Sunday. He was 81.
The composer died in his hometown of Katowice, southern Poland, following a long illness, according to Jerzy Kornowicz, head of the Association of Polish Composers.
"The power and the message of his music, as well as the noble character of Wojciech Kilar as a person, will stay in my memory forever," said Kornowicz.
Polish film director Kazimierz Kutz said working with the composer "was pure pleasure. He would come, see my movie and a month later he would bring extremely good music that was always beyond my expectations."
Polish conductor Antoni Wit praised Kilar's generosity, saying he "liked to share whatever he had with others."
A modest man who often avoided public attention, Kilar's main love was composing symphonies and concertos, and he always put that above movies, even though he wrote the scores of dozens of films. He drew inspiration from Polish folk music and religious prayers and hymns, which he had learned in Latin as an altar boy.
But it was film music, especially for Coppola's 1992 erotic horror movie, that brought this prolific vanguard composer to the world's attention and commissions from other celebrity directors, including Jane Campion and her "Portrait of a Lady." Kilar once said the three criteria that made him write film music were, in this order: the name of the director, the salary and the script.
In a 2007 interview with PLUS, a journal about Polish-American affairs, he recalled asking Coppola in Los Angeles what kind of music he was expecting and the director replied: "I did my part. You are the composer. Do what you want."
Kilar's dedication to composing primarily for the concert halls even led him to lose a commission to write the score for Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. "In a movie, music is just one of the many elements," Kilar once said. "Serious music, which I compose, is signed with my name only, and I get real pleasure from that."
But in 2012, while receiving an honorary doctorate in Poland, he admitted that he never felt sure of the quality of the works he created until musicians and audiences gave their verdict.
Kilar wrote music for more than 130 movies in Poland and abroad, but "Dracula" won him the Best Score Composer award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers in 1992.
His dense, broad and heart-swelling music is very evocative and seems destined to illustrate movies. Richly instrumented, it uses repetition of a simple melody, making it sound like romantic classical music. His trademark sounds involve basses and cellos.
Classical music exercises bored Kilar when he was learning to play the piano as a child. Only when he got to know contemporary music by Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Karol Szymanowski did he find his passion in life.
In the 1950s he tried composition in a neoclassicist style, in vogue at that time. After studying in Paris, he became one of Poland's three leading vanguard composers in the 1960s. The other two were also giants: Krzysztof Penderecki and Henryk Mikolaj Gorecki, who died in 2010. They experimented with sound quality, serialism and the 12-tone techniques.
Kilar's best known works from the time are the jazzy "Riff62"; "Diphtongos," a composition for a choir with orchestra; and a minimalist "Upstairs-Downstairs" for two children's choirs and an orchestra.
A turning point came in 1974 with "Krzesany," a symphonic poem for an orchestra, inspired by highlander music of the Tatra mountains region of southern Poland. From then on, Kilar drew inspiration for his classical music from Polish tradition and Catholic church music.
Most of his works were written for symphony orchestras -- often with a solo voice, or instrument or choir -- and range from symphonies and concertos to religious choral pieces such as the powerful "Exodus" of 1981, "Angelus" in 1984, and the "Magnificat," written in 2006.
Kilar was born on July 17, 1932, in Lviv, a former Polish city now in Ukraine, to a doctor and an actress. The family moved to Rzeszow in southeastern Poland, then to Katowice in the south, where Kilar continued the musical education that he had started in Rzeszow.
He studied piano, music theory and composition in Rzeszow, Krakow and Katowice before graduating in 1955 with top honors from the State Music Academy in Katowice.

I buy a new pair of these shoes once per year. I loooooove these shoes. They are comfortable, grippy, and sturdy without being clompy or stiff. The quality hasn't diminished a bit in the last 5 years, which unfortunately I cannot say about other brands. After a year of wear, the only wear spots will be the back of the shoe (because I jam my feet in without untying the shoe) and the outer side of the heel sole. I wear these shoes to work 5 days a week, 52 weeks per year because they are brown, so they don't "count" as sneakers on my office.
I was looking for a supportive shoe for walking and light hiking. I've been looking for almost 8 months and finally found what I was looking for in this shoe! We are honeymooning on Marthas Vineyard and plan on a lot of hiking and walking through all those cute little towns. I also work in a hospital and walk on my breaks around town so these shoes rock for that too! They are very comfortable and the pain I was experiencing in my feet and legs has disappeared after a very short time of wearing these. They feel like they form to your feet. I usually wear an 8 or 8 1/2 but had to get a 9 in these.
The Moab is a great go-to shoe for walking and hiking, however, the shoe shown here is not what you get so if looking for a darker colored shoe than the other taupe Moab seen on Moosejaw---this isn't it. The shoe received was the lighter Taupe colored Moab ventilator. This darker version also isn't found on the Merrell website so who knows???

Swing-State Voters Hit With Mail Ad Barrage
By BRIAN BAKST, Associated Press
MANITOWOC, Wis. (AP) — Around lunchtime each day, the latest missives promoting or pillorying Democratic President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney arrive in Diane Ouradnik's mailbox. Before long, they're in her trash.
Tearing and tossing has become routine for battleground-state voters drenched in caustic mail ads from the presidential candidates, political parties and their allied groups.
[READ: Who Won the Final Debate?]
Television commercials may be king, but millions of dollars a week are fueling the pinpointed mail ads: Gun owners are told Obama is a threat and Romney is "the clear choice." Bilingual ads going to Latino voters are questioning Romney's commitment to opportunities for "regular people." Senior citizens are getting dueling pieces from Obama and Romney casting the other as detrimental to Medicare.
"I don't even read it. It's just too overwhelming. It's too much — from all sides," says Ouradnik, a customer service representative in this lakeside Wisconsin city. She voted for Obama four years ago but is leaning toward Romney this time because she feels the incumbent has let her down and is too willing to blame others.
Political mail at all levels is big business. Some 1.8 billion political mail pieces were sent in 2010, resulting in $338 million in revenue for the U.S. Postal Service, a spokesman said. The Postal Service expects to significantly surpass those marks in 2012.
In Romney's corner, the super political action committee known as Restore Our Future sank more than $1 million into its direct mail efforts in the past two weeks alone. Another $1 million was spent last week on anti-Obama mail by Citizens Awareness Project Inc., a new group that hasn't disclosed its donors.
Aiding Obama, the AFL-CIO has sent tens of thousands of candidate contrast fliers to union households in battleground states. A healthy share of NARAL Pro-Choice America's $1.1 million of independent spending on the race has been on bulk mail.
[READ: Instant Polls Favor Obama]
Strategists count on voters to at least scan what they get. In the best case, people hand the ads off to undecided neighbors or carry them to the voting booth for reference.
In a presidential campaign dominated by a focus on jobs and the economy, the mail ads often tackle peripheral issues important to niche voters.
A tri-fold flier from the pro-Romney group Crossroads GPS pans Obama as weak on border security and in favor of a plan that "rolls out the red carpet for illegal immigrants." The New Hampshire Democratic Party has a piece charging that Romney would give too much power to employers and insurance companies to deny coverage of contraceptives. A group called Catholics for Ohio addresses the birth control debate from the opposite angle with a mail piece saying Obama "wants to tell the Catholic Church what to do."
The mailers are typically more cost-effective than television ads, with some pieces costing a dime or less. And they have a more scientific reach.
"It's the difference between using a rifle and a shotgun," said Randy Borntrager, political director of People for the American Way, which is sending anti-Romney mail into Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin. "With a shotgun you have a pretty widespread approach, with a more targeted rifle approach you can aim at a target at who you think is going to be persuadable."
Within the battleground states, the pieces are more likely to be steered to people with a regular history of voting. Groups like the National Rifle Association and the AFL-CIO feed off their well-honed lists. Organizations hoping to convert 2008 Obama voters have concentrated on geographic areas that backed the president four years ago but a Republican gubernatorial or congressional candidate two years later.
[VIEW: Campaign 2012 Political Cartoons]
The Ending Spending Action Fund, a conservative super PAC bankrolled by billionaire Joe Ricketts, was on pace to send out nearly 2 million mail pieces in the month before the election, mostly in the presidential race. The group is focused on Iowa, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin. In one mailing, Obama is slammed for rising debt, nagging unemployment and higher dependency on food stamps. "Obama made things worse," it says.

It wasn't until two months prior to the November election that 51-year-old Carlos Bailon made up his mind about which presidential candidate would get his vote.
Although he had voted for Barack Obama four years ago, Bailon would do so again reluctantly this time around.
A staunch supporter of public safety, economic development and civil rights, the El Centro resident said the last four years brought some disappointment, if not surprise, that not all of Obama's campaign promises panned out.
"But we have to look on the bright side," Bailon said, referring to the next four years. "He may do something good for Latinos."
Considering the large number of Latino voters — 71 percent — who threw their support behind Obama, much political commentary centered on the role Latinos played in the victory. But just what Obama does for Latinos during his second term may depend less on what took place on Election Day than what happens next.
And what happens next depends a lot on the pressure Latino advocacy groups are able to direct at the administration.
"Nobody can sort of expect that their election support is going to lead to results," said Kevin Johnson, dean of University of California, Davis School of Law.
"With any president you have to keep up the pressure if you want to see change."
Yet there is a lot of hope that there will be more response from the administration about issues Latinos are concerned with, Johnson, also a Chicano studies professor, said. On the top of that list would be immigration reform and the Dream Act, which would provide a path to citizenship for eligible Latinos who arrived in the U.S. as children.
For his part, Obama stated at a news conference a week after the election that immigration reform was a possibility and that it would take the shape of "previous efforts."
Of the 23.7 million registered Latino voters, an estimated 12 million showed up to vote this election cycle, or 10 percent of all voters. That figure could nearly double by 2030, at which time 40 million Hispanics will be eligible to vote, according to a Pew Hispanic Center report released after the election. Hispanics will also comprise 40 percent of the growth in the eligible electorate between now and 2030, with nearly 800,000 eligible Latino voters turning 18 each year in the U.S., the report stated.
That potential explosion in political clout also spells trouble for the future aspirations of the Republican party, as many commentators would note not long after the polls closed.
In the wake of the election, the "unbending ideologues" that had used Latinos as "punching bags" could be seen rethinking and evolving their previous hardline stances on such issues as immigration, said National Institute for Latino Policy president Angelo Falcón.
Just this past Tuesday, three Republican U.S. senators introduced an alternative to the Dream Act that would allow young adults to apply for permanent residency if they have completed college or military service and have worked in the U.S. for more than four years. The bill, dubbed the Achieve Act, would grant visas to those younger than 28 who were brought to the U.S. before they were 14 years old, but would not provide a pathway to citizenship.
A day later, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus would reject the Achieve Act.
The "small window of opportunity" that comes with the acknowledgement of Latinos' growing political influence also brings challenges, Falcón said.
To effect change, Latino advocacy groups must convince the general population that Hispanics are "not a special-interest group that is trying to empower themselves at the exclusion of the rest of American society."
For example, immigration reform would not only benefit the economy and society as a whole, but millions of other non-Hispanics in the country illegally, Falcón said.
Not having a unified voice advocating for a particular issue of concern to the Latino community presents challenges as well.
He said he has yet to see the different sectors of the Latino community come together in a meaningful way to develop a cohesive strategy.
"We have the raw material but we haven't figured out how to make it work for benefit of the community," Falcón said. "I just don't see that happening as much as it should be."

Hedge Fund News EH Report
Manager interviews 'Mizuho-Eurekahedge Index' goes live Asian Hedge Fund Awards Conferences Fund Launches and Closures Archive
Commodity ETFs versus Managed Futures
The search for appropriate alternative assets to be used to diversify investment portfolios has created a demand for financial engineers to design and bring to the market a wide range of instruments that are promoted as the tool to use.
Commodity Exchange-Traded-Funds (ETFs) fall into this category. The ease of access to ETFs that are identified by their strategy and transparent portfolios, tend to give a false sense of security in addressing the diversification concern through the use of alternative investment strategies. An ETF may be incorrectly chosen as a proxy to the less accessible managed futures asset class.
Commodity ETFs are beta driven instruments that seek to generate returns solely from the market and minimal dependence on manager skill. This places a commodity ETF into a long-only bias and if the ETF uses futures as the vehicle, further complications will result. Commodity futures are derivatives and have a limited lifespan. An ETF that offers futures contracts under the premise that the underlying asset will rise in value, will be subject to an obstacle that is well known to professionals in the futures industry as contango.

text: | What's happening to the Internet?June 20, 2013 - Stephen BrowneIs it just my computer or has something happened to the Internet? I got a new desktop a couple months ago. A professional writer needs to have two computers and my laptop sat on the desk 99.999% of the time anyway. So I semi-retired it and use it for travel and backup. When it finally gives up the ghost I may actually downgrade my portable work station to a notebook-sized model. All I use it for is a typewriter and a telephone anyway. The problem with getting a new computer or new software is you have to learn a lot of the control procedures all over again. Every time I get a new version of Word it's got a whole bunch of new things it can do that I don't give a flip about. I want it to do the things I've done for years on it. Trouble is, the buttons for the things I've always done are now hard to find. Since I started writing seriously I have NEVER EVER said, "Gee, I wish my word processor would do -----, I hope next year's model does that." I have however said, "I wish this durn thing wouldn't do ----- every time I turn it on." It's as if every time you bought a new car you had to learn to drive all over again. ("This year's model features a tiller instead of a steering wheel...") When was the last major change you remember in the controls of cars? I think it was moving the bright switch from left of the brake or clutch pedal on the floor to the steering column. At any rate on my new desktop I've been noticing something lately. Actually, "been intensely irritated by something lately" describes it better. Pop-ups have been with us for a long time, but were a livable irritation and of course you can install pop-up blockers. However lately I'm continually interrupted by streaming video pop-ups which are invariably louder than what I'm listening to at the time. I have to hunt for the "x" to close them, or even minimize the screen to get to them. And for some reason a window will open behind the one I'm working on and start playing a full episode of some TV series. And what's really irritating is, I'm used to clicking on the screen to get it to scroll down using the down arrow button. Of course you avoid clicking on buttons, but nowadays when I click on a blank part of the screen more often than not a window opens on something I wasn't even aware of. And by the way, who the heck allowed someone to start creating links on words in my blog? Nobody asked me if they could do that and I'm not making a dime off it. What's going on?

Humanscale History
"If a design solves a functional problem as simply and elegantly as possible, it will not only have superior performance, but its aesthetic will be timeless as well."
— Robert King, Humanscale Founder and CEO
Humanscale was founded in 1983 with a mission to develop high-performance ergonomic office tools that would solve functional problems as straightforwardly and gracefully as possible. Beginning with its first product — an anti-glare filter that improved the visibility of monochrome monitors in the early 1980s — the company has methodically designed some of the most innovative products in the industry. In the late 1990s, Humanscale made a significant mark with its introduction of high-performance articulating keyboard systems, offering effortless one-touch adjustability while eliminating the knee-clearance issues associated with competing solutions. Today, the company is still the leader in that product category.
In 1999, Humanscale turned heads in the contract furniture industry with the introduction of the Freedom chair, designed by ergonomics pioneer Niels Diffrient. Combining unprecedented functionality with minimal manual controls, the chair broke new ground by utilizing dynamic mechanisms that respond to the requirements of each individual user automatically. Since its introduction in 1999, Freedom has won 10 international design awards and has been featured in virtually every major design publication.
Building on the success of the Freedom chair, in 2004 Diffrient designed the Liberty chair, which featured a tri-panel configuration of non-stretch mesh that provides tailor-made lumbar support without external devices.
In addition to task and office seating, Humanscale's award-winning product line includes articulating keyboard supports, adjustable monitor arms, task lighting, CPU holders, laptop holders, foot rests and ergonomic mice. Headquartered in New York City with distribution worldwide, Humanscale is a leader in ergonomic design and is committed to environmental sustainability for all its products.

He is perennially scowling in this soap. Sameer Soni, returns to the small screen as a sour-faced, cranky character in Parichay, Nayee Zindagi Ke Sapno Ka. Ekta Kapoor's obsession with long names sure must have its basis in astrology. Ekta is highly superstitious and perhaps hopes the length of the name will bring her good luck. But this serial needs a stronger script as luck alone will not suffice.
After playing an endearing charmer in Jassi, Sameer has opted to play a crabby loser with a caustic sense of humour. Kunal Chopra (Sameer) is this brilliant lawyer whose career goes bust after he opts to get into business and is taken for a royal ride. Predictably, his love life too suffers as his girlfriend, who happens to be his former employer, J.K. Thakral's daughter, is not too enthused about spending her life with a loser. One can't blame her because failures have made Kunal so annoyingly taciturn, that Richa opts to dump him. Mona Vasu (Richa), returns to the small screen after Radha Ki Betiyaan. Mona has put on weight, she was already plump even while she was acting in Radha� She wears this funnily cropped short wig � whoever has created that wig needs to take a sabbatical � that makes her look like a clown. This coupled with tight fitting western clothes do not give her the sophisticated look that she is aiming for. Mona needs to shed that flab immediately.
Even Sameer has become podgy; it sure looks like marriage to Neelam really suits him. There appears to be no chemistry between these actors, even when they were supposedly in love with each other. Of course, there is a joint family too. Kunal lives with his parents, unmarried sister, married brother and his wife and a younger unmarried brother. The politics of living in a joint family has been portrayed rather well. There are undertones of humour too especially when Kunal teases his perennially weeping mother by calling her Meena Kumari, every time she gets melodramatic.
Arati Singh, who plays Seema, Gaurav's wife and Kunal's bhabhi has warmth that makes her very appealing. There is another romantic angle, Anand Chopra, another budding lawyer, who is forced by financial constraints to work for his brother's ex-boss, J.K. Thakral falls in love with his colleague Siddhi Mallik. Newcomers Saurabh Jain and Keerti Nagpure (Anand and Siddhi) are so expressionless that you can't make out when they are happy or sad. Hopefully, they will learn to act by the time this soap comes to an end.
The story is still evolving but somehow it lacks the energy. It does appear like Ekta Kapoor is desperately trying to include every ingredient she can to make this soap her hit. Her biggest competition would be her own soap, Bade Acche Lagte Hain, which appears at a later hour on another channel. Between the two serials, the latter definitely has more appeal.

Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds set to release his first Hollywood film score.
Ólafur Arnalds' original motion picture soundtrack for Sam Levinson's feature film debut 'Another Happy Day', starring Ellen Barkin and Demi Moore, will see a worldwide release via UK modern classical label Erased Tapes Records on February 27, 2012.
PRE-ORDER it on CD/Vinyl/Digital now from: http://erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP038
'In mid-December 2010 I was on a holiday in China when I received an email from Sam Levinson about the film. We got on the phone at like 4 in the morning Beijing time and ended up talking all through the night, instantly connecting. He told me that they had been listening to my music while making the film, so the film was already very influenced by my music. However, it was not until Ellen Barkin – the beautiful force that she is – had pestered the producers for a week, calling them every day about how I am the right one for this film, that they finally gave in. The only catch was that it had to be done two weeks later, in the first week of January. So I ended up scoring nonstop all throughout Christmas, making my mother mad in the process.' - Ólafur Arnalds
Born in the suburban Icelandic town of Mosfellsbær, a few kilometres outside of Reykjavík, the 24-year old composer has always enjoyed pushing boundaries with both his studio work and his live-shows. Through relentless touring and determination this young artist has steadily gained recognition worldwide and continues his mission to lure an indie-generation of pop and rock fans into an emotive world of beguiling electronic chamber music and delicate classical arrangements.

I like the rythm moving from 8th rest and next bar 16th rest, together and again 8th. You play quarternotes+half in the lefthand ? and the right hand is moving the rythm with slurred notes?

Sorry, but that's far too vague a question. There is a huge range of e-commerce sites in different business sectors, using different tactics and techniques to attract customers, depending on their niche.
I suggest you read the sticky threads and do a search of the forums to get some general information. If you then have a specific question which remains unanswered, please feel free to post again. Meanwhile, thread closed.Don't serve your porridge and then go out for a walk.

More copies of this ISBNOld Angel Midnightby Jack Kerouac
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Poetry. Jack Kerouac's book, OLD ANGEL MIDNIGHT, begins with two introductory essays written by Ann Charters and Michael McClure detailing their experiences with and reflections on the poet. Kerouac proclaims that the long prose poem, Old Angel Midnight, is the only work "I've ever written in which I allow myself the right to say anything." An uninhibited work with minimum breaks and sections organized by numbers, OLD ANGEL MIDNIGHT is a flow of consciousness from beginning to end. A beat poet, Jack Kerouac's work was a critical contribution to the movement in poetry.
Synopsis:Renowned "Beat Generation" poet and author Jack Kerouac says of OLD ANGEL MIDNIGHT, "(it) is only the beginning of a lifelong work in multilingual sound . . . of babbling world tongues coming in thru my window at midnight no matter where I live or what I'm doing. . . . And it is the only book I've ever written in which I allow myself the right to say anything I want, absolutely and positively anything, since that's what you hear coming in that window. . . ".
Synopsis:Old Angel Midnight (1959) was one result of Kerouac's automatic writing experiments in which he would spill his chemically inspired thoughts onto paper to see what came out. Though Kerouac was initially denounced by literary critics as an oddball, his spontaneous twistings and turnings of language rate well with those of Joyce and Stein, and time has proven him to be an important and enduringly popular American writer.-Library Review What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details

Painter Joan Snyder Takes On the Big Boys: Pollock, de Kooning
What, for other artists, might be considered excess—excess energy, excess emotion, excess ambition, excessive quantities of paints and other materials for making paintings—is, for Joan Snyder, a minimum of what a painting requires. She belongs to the school that labors in the belief that Too Much Is Hardly Enough. As a consequence of this painterly Read More

Smart & Final to open Pleasanton supermarket Aug. 13
Original post made on Jul 26, 2008

Is it Smart & Final or Smart & Easy? The latter was referenced twice in this story.
on Jul 27, 2008 at 8:59 am
Ok, I see that one reference has been fixed (without an article edit timestamp) between last evening and now. The:
"When it opens, Smart & Easy will add to the grocery store competition in Pleasanton, which includes Lucky, Nob Hill, Raleys, Safeway and Trader Joe's."
now reads:
"When it opens, Smart & Final...."
The "footer" tag on the article still reads:
"smart & easy pleasanton supermarkets"
But I guess it is Smart & Final and not some another new supermarket chain.
on Jul 28, 2008 at 12:24 pm
It says that "Fresh & Easy, a British-owned grocery similar in size and marketing focus to Trader Joe's, plans to open its first store in the area later this year in the Rosewood Pavilion in the space now occupied by Express Fitness."
Does this mean express fitness is closing? What about its members (me!)??
Has anyone heard anything about this?
on Jul 28, 2008 at 12:25 pm
The article states that Fast & Easy is going to occupy the space in the Rose Pavilion that Express Fitness is in. Where is Express Fitness going?
on Jul 28, 2008 at 2:13 pm
Umm...Express Fitness? Where are they moving to?
on Jul 28, 2008 at 2:17 pm
Years ago Samrt & Final was in Dublin. Now they are back???
on Jul 29, 2008 at 6:53 am
Smart and Final is going into the old CompUSA building on Johnson Drive.
As for Express Fitness and the "British" chain -- I'd ask Express Fitness where they are moving to. Especially if you are a member.
on Jul 29, 2008 at 8:34 am
My hubby is a member at Express Fitness and he called last night to ask them about this and they said it was false information.
Jeb.... can you please clarify? There seems to be a lot of confusion here!
on Aug 1, 2008 at 12:43 am
There is certainly something planned for Fitness Express Site. Here is the Planning Commission Report:
on Aug 1, 2008 at 6:50 am
The revised/corrected article linked here contains this statement:
"Fresh & Easy, a British-owned grocery similar in size and marketing focus to Trader Joe's, plans to open its first store in the area later this year in the Rosewood Pavilion in the space now occupied by Express Fitness."
I would guess looking for a new fitness center is in many people's future.
on Aug 2, 2008 at 8:33 pm
I'm curious about the Express Fitness location as well. According to the folks at the gym they aren't closing or going anywhere. According to the Planning Commission Report they would be relocated to another spot in the same shopping center. I'm guessing the part of the building nearest Santa Rita would be likely, unless there is other space I'm not aware of. But it doesn't sound like they are being driven out or anything.

The highest seeded team left in the Men's Slowpitch Tournament, Aftershock/Classic Wood Floors, played just four games in the Thursday league's tournament to go undefeated and win the summer title. Aftershock, the number two seeded team, won the crown with their 19-18 decision over number eight seed Hellman Chevrolet.
Play began last Thursday (July 26) with loser bracket games to determine who would face Aftershock in the finals. Big B's Produce and Hellman Chevrolet began the evening with Hellman's coming away with a 13-3 win to eliminated Big B's, the tournament's number six seed.
Aftershock was responsible for sending both Big B's and Balls Deep (the fifth seed) to the loser bracket earlier in the tournament on the same night.
Hellman's, after eliminating Big B's, took on Balls Deep to see who would face Aftershock in the title game. Hellman's had little problem with Balls Deep as they powered their way to a 14-3 win for the tournament's final championship berth.
In the championship game, it took an extra inning to determine the champion. Aftershock was the home team and managed to outscore Hellman's by one for a 19-18 come-from-behind victory and the tournament title.
Hellman's played seven games in the tournament with five wins against two losses. Aftershock had a 4-0 record in tournament action to stay in the winner's bracket all the way through the three weeks of play.

Restaurants in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico, searchable by cuisine and location, with ratings and reviews. Get educated before you eat! We like Lindy's for their retro-ish décor, Downtown convenience and $5 pitchers of beer. The food here is pretty typical diner fare with a good amount of New Mexican and Greek specialties thrown into the mix, served in hefty portions. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Community Reviews |

[JURIST] Former chief legal adviser to the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) [official website] Sir Michael Wood [UN profile, PDF] told the Iraq Inquiry [official website] in a public hearing [video] on Tuesday that he had advised the Foreign Ministry that the 2003 Iraq invasion was illegal. Woods testified that the invasion was "contrary to international law" because it was never authorized by the UN Security Council [official website]. Woods said that then-Foreign Ministry secretary Jack Straw [parliamentary profile] rejected his advice that there was no legal basis for the invasion and that it was not supported by UN resolutions, including Resolution 1441 [text]. During the inquiry, Woods stated [transcript, PDF]:
He took the view that I was being very dogmatic and that international law was pretty vague and that he wasn't used to people taking such a firm position. When he had been at the Home Office ... he had often been advised things were unlawful and he had gone ahead anyway and won in the courts.

SMU libraries embrace merger mentality of print and technology Guest columnist for Annotations is Camila A. Alire, Ph.D., a member of the SMU Libraries Executive Board and dean of University Libraries at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Recently I was asked to give the wrap-up speech at a conference on the electronic book. In preparation I was reflecting on the latest wonders of our library profession. As a novice professional, I never thought that our profession and academic libraries would experience the transformation we are now experiencing. It is, indeed, the most exciting of times for information professionals and services.
There also are well-intentioned campus administrators who equate the virtual library concept with the elimination of print materials and physical facilities. This will not happen in my professional lifetime nor many lifetimes after me!
Friends of the SMU Libraries programs feature rare books and remembrances The Friends of the SMU Libraries have spent the fall learning how to preserve photographs, documents, and tapes; touring the homes of well-known authors in the Hudson and Connecticut River Valleys; and hearing from Gregg Cantrell, author of a new biography on Stephen F. Austin. Winter and spring programs will include a look at rare books and a remembrance of Eleanor Roosevelt by her granddaughter. Following are the remaining Friends programs for 2000:

A pretty while ago in fact (Apr 2008), i wonder what the status is right now..
"In his keynote talk at the recent Silicon Valley Ruby Conference, Sun's "http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/misc/Tim">Tim Bray asserted that "PHP and Ruby are the languages of choice for new web apps." Coming from most people, this wouldn't be a remarkable comment, but given that Tim is Sun's director of web technologies, it is worthy of note.

Is the time right for watch phones?
Maybe there's something to this latest watch phone trend after all. Barely a day after posting an item about a model that didn't send people rushing for the vomitoria, we see that another one has surfaced to pique our interest.
The WM2 from Netherlands-based Van Der Led (we'd never heard of them either) has come up with an innovative solution to the obvious challenge of limited real estate on such gadgets, embedding a keypad on the wristband.

When you have been hurt in car, truck or motorcycle accident caused by another person, you need a fighter on your side. You need Ken Nunn, The Indiana Injury Lawyer. That's all I do. I have been standing up for the rights of auto accident victims in our communities, including Bloomington, Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville and Muncie, and I have represented over 20,000 clients in 574 different cities in Indiana for more than 42 years. Don't go to sleep worrying. Call me now at 1-800-CALL-KEN or GET HELP NOW! online. We know how important your case is and we believe in returning phone calls fast.
You should know as much as possible about your auto accident lawyers. If you've had a car wreck, a pickup truck wreck, or a motorcycle wreck, you should know that Ken Nunn Law Firm has handled thousands of such cases. We will act fast to collect evidence to protect your case…..gathering pictures, witness statements, information on vehicle damage, and other vital evidence to prove the negligence that has caused your loss and suffering.
Auto accidents cause enormous suffering and loss. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that in 2007, 2,347,000 people were injured in accidents across the US. In Indiana, 898 people lost their lives in auto accidents during 2007. The life-changing injuries from accidents like these often mean multiple hospital visits, medical bills, lost time from work, long rehabilitation, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment, vehicle repair bills, and mental trauma for you and your family. The following is a list of injuries that can result:
- Broken or fractured bones;
- Head injuries;
- Brain injuries;
- Spinal cord damage;
- Severe burns;
- Disfigurement;
- Permanent disability;
- Loss of one or more of the senses (hearing, sight, sense of touch);

If you have been seriously injured in a motor vehicle wreck, you may be entitled to money for pain and suffering, money for lost wages, money for medical expenses, money for permanent injury, money for scarring and disfigurement and many other benefits.
When you hire me, Ken Nunn, I will begin immediately preparing your case. I will fight hard for you and I will prepare every case as if it is heading to the courtroom. If you are contacted by an insurance company to answer questions, to tape record you, or if they try to give you a tiny check, don't let them tape record you and don't say anything until you've had a chance to call and talk to Ken Nunn's office first. Don't sign anything! The insurance company would love to settle your claim for a tiny check! If the insurance company offers you money, how do you know the offer is fair? You'll never know unless you call Ken Nunn at 1-800-CALL-KEN or GET HELP NOW! online. I've identified 29 tactics used by insurance adjusters that could cost you a lot of money. Call me now and I'll deal with the insurance company.
- See a doctor as soon as possible and seek out the necessary medical care you need. Even if you feel that you are not seriously hurt, some injuries can show up hours or days after the crash.
- Don't sign anything from the insurance adjuster.
- Don't let anyone tape record you.
- Don't guess about your legal rights.
- Be sure to read Ken Nunn's "29 Tactics Used by Insurance Adjusters that Could Cost you A Lot of Money".
- Be sure to read the many reports written by Ken Nunn that you can find on this website. After you read these reports, you will be one of the most informed in the state about what to do and what not to do if you are injured.
- Don't delay. There are time limits. I know someone who waited too long and lost over $300,000, so call Ken Nunn at 1-800-CALL-KEN or or 1-800-CALL-KEN or GET HELP NOW! online. Put my 42 years of experience on your side.
- You do not need any money to hire me.
- Remember…..there's never an attorney's fee until I get money for you.

The full version releases are as annoying as popup windows ... They're actually the only reason I've really given serious thought to stop using FireFox.
I wish they'd just 'skip a few', call the next one 30 to so they feel super cool by beating Google to it, then go back to normal subversions, except for what are actually major releases.
I don't even want a subversion release rate at anywhere near their current rate for 'major version' releases. I wish they would just Slow Down.

Maryport school head hopes for more funding
Last updated at 20:04, Thursday, 31 May 2012
The head of Maryport's Netherhall School hopes the school will still get much needed capital investment, despite missing out on two major Government funding schemes.
David Sibbit said he expected more government funding to become available in the next two or three years.
He was speaking after news that Netherhall was not included in a county council bid for money from the Government's new Priority School Building Programme.
The school had previously been due to get a £20 million revamp under a Building Schools for the Future programme, which was scrapped immediately after the 2010 general election.
Funding is needed to improve its buildings, some of which date back to the 1960s.
But Mr Sibbit said other funding opportunities were likely to arise in the near future.
In 2003 the school secured lottery funding to build its hugely successful community sport centre.
It is now looking into private investment opportunities, particularly to improve science and technology facilities.
Mr Sibbit said: "We are trying to prepare our youngsters to be ready for what our local employers need, which is predominantly science and technology based."
He said the school was seeking opportunities to work with business and organisations like Britain's Energy Coast, as well as pursuing local and national government funding.
Mr Sibbit said: "We'll be looking at a mixture of public sector and private investment.
"We have just got to wait and see what happens from the point of view of future development over the next two or three years."
He said the school was able to operate as it is in the meantime, and that performance was improving year on year.
Mr Sibbit will retire in August after being headteacher at Netherhall School for 15 years.
He was sure that new headteacher Jonathan Johnson would continue to push for funding to improve the school.
