LOS ANGELES (AP) — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's skyhook has been captured in bronze for future generations of basketball fans.
Staples Center unveiled a nearly 16-foot-tall statue of the top scorer in NBA history Friday night, immortalizing Jabbar's famed hook shot alongside statues of fellow Los Angeles Lakers greats Magic Johnson and Jerry West.
The 65-year-old Abdul-Jabbar pronounced himself humbled and grateful during a ceremony attended by numerous NBA greats ranging from Johnson and West to Pat Riley and Elgin Baylor — and even Lakers superfan Jack Nicholson.
''Having lived my life and had the experiences I've had, I can understand now what a man like Lou Gehrig means when he considers himself the luckiest man on the face of the earth,'' Abdul-Jabbar said.
Abdul-Jabbar is depicted in his signature goggles, wristbands and the standard 1980s short-shorts below his No. 33 jersey. The 7-foot-2 center pulled a braided cord to drop a curtain revealing the statue to hundreds of cheering fans, who gathered under threatening clouds for the ceremony.
''I'm glad we got here before the pigeons got to it,'' Abdul-Jabbar said with a smile.
By any measure, Abdul-Jabbar is among the most significant figures in basketball history. His 38,387 points are the most in NBA history, and he spent two decades in the league with the Milwaukee Bucks and the Lakers, winning a record six MVP awards while setting records at the time for games played, total minutes, field goals, blocked shots, defensive rebounds and fouls.
The former Lew Alcindor arrived at UCLA in 1965 from his native New York City's Power Memorial High School. He won three NCAA titles with coach John Wooden, who received special mention while Abdul-Jabbar thanked the biggest figures in his basketball life.
''You never understand how important these people are until they're not with you,'' Abdul-Jabbar said. ''With coach Wooden, I understood immediately.''
The No. 1 pick in the 1969 draft won an NBA title with Oscar Robertson and the Bucks, who traded him to Los Angeles in 1975. The Lakers didn't break through until Johnson arrived in 1979, immediately teaming up for the first of five championships in nine seasons with the advent of Showtime.
''Thank you for taking us on a ride with you,'' Johnson said. ''It was all because of your great leadership.''
Riley recalled his first conversation with Abdul-Jabbar after he became the Lakers' coach.
''He said, 'Pat, you won't have to worry about me,''' Riley said. ''He was great, and he has been there for us his whole career. He was our protector, and he was the one who carried us.''
Abdul-Jabbar did much of his scoring with the famed shot depicted in his statue — including the basket with which he passed Wilt Chamberlain to become the NBA's career scoring leader on April 5, 1984, in Las Vegas. Former Milwaukee radio play-by-play announcer Eddie Doucette attended the statue unveiling and recounted the night he coined the term ''skyhook'' while Abdul-Jabbar played for the Bucks.
Abdul-Jabbar also received praise from several speakers for his humanitarian work and dedication to education in his post-basketball life. He also has written books and worked on documentary films.
And though the Lakers insist there are no hard feelings with their sometimes-prickly ex-superstar, Abdul-Jabbar ruefully recalled a minor ruckus he started a few years ago by complaining that Johnson and West had been honored with Staples Center statues before him.
''I had a little too much to say about it not happening right away,'' Abdul-Jabbar said. ''But they were patient with me.''
Julius Erving, Bill Walton, Bill Sharman, Jamaal Wilkes, Kurt Rambis, A.C. Green and James Worthy also attended the ceremony. NBA Commissioner David Stern, former President Bill Clinton and Abdul-Jabbar's son, Amir, sent congratulatory videos.
''Kareem was the most selfless super player that I've ever seen in my life,'' West said.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 23, 2012

Today marks the two-year anniversary of the enactment of the Affordable Care Act, the law that gives hard working, middle-class families the security they deserve. It's only been two years, but we're already seeing that the law is making a difference in the lives of Americans.
It's helping seniors. New data shows that more than 5.1 million seniors and people with disabilities on Medicare saved over $3.2 billion on prescription drugs because of the health care law. That's about $635 per person in average savings and money back in the pockets of America's seniors.
It's helping women. Because of the Affordable Care Act, 45.1 million women – including 20.4 million women with private health insurance and 24.7 million women with Medicare – can receive recommended preventive services without having to pay a co-pay or deductible. Important preventive services, like mammograms and Pap smears are free. And in 2014, insurance companies can no longer charge women higher premiums just because they're women.
It's helping young adults. Because of the law, 2.5 million more young people have health insurance coverage.
It's reducing premiums and lowering costs. Your insurance company can no longer raise your premiums by double digits without justification. And the law helps you get the most from their premium dollar: The health care law requires that premium dollars must be spent primarily on health care, not administrative costs like overhead or CEO salaries. So far, an estimated 74.8 million people have been protected by this new requirement.
And the law is protecting Americans with pre-existing conditions such as cancer or asthma. Already nearly 49,000 people have enrolled in the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan, and it is now illegal for children under 19 to be denied coverage due to a pre-existing condition. The law also eliminated lifetime dollar limits on coverage for over 105 million Americans—they no longer have to live with the fear that if an illness strikes, they could max out their health coverage.
There are many more benefits to come from the law, too. Until then, learn more about the benefits, protections and programs of the Affordable Care Act at www.healthcare.gov. You can also see the stories of how Americans from across the country are benefiting from the law at www.healthcare.gov/mycare.

Pretty cool hat!
December 14, 2009
Nice looking hat. Bought as gift and considering getting one for myself. Very fast delivery!
Great except Ear Flaps
January 13, 2012
Overall, I like the hat a lot. It's warm, comfortable, and seems pretty durable. My only complaint are the ear flaps. They are too lightweight and too short to really provide any protection from the cold or wind for my ears. The rest of my head is nice and warm, but my ears are consistently cold when I wear the hat, especially when it's windy outside.
Pros: Build quality, Lasts forever, Cons: Bad designRed & Black Lumberjack
December 26, 2011
Well constructed hat and very old school looking. Fits just a bit on the small side. Ear flaps do not cover ears snugly so if you are looking for something like that get a regular beanie. Otherwise, it's a great hat and very stylish.
November 25, 2010
Great classic style. Just a little too light weight for my hunting trip. Could not ask for better customer service with the order and return prosses. I will continue to check out Altrec.com for my outdoor assesories.
stylish and practical
November 15, 2007
The Yukon hat is attractive while being very warm for the cold weather months. I only wish there was a greater color selection
Nice hat!
December 26, 2009
Got this hat for my boyfriend and he loves it. The only complaint is that the ear flaps do not sit flat against his ears when they are unbuttoned
January 06, 2011
So, my hat, I is a very cute girl Both ears warm, cute hat and bought for this price Since it was the L size, but big size
Great Hat
June 25, 2011
I use this hat a lot in january february and love the ear flap which works well. the split peak is great for folding it up for bag or pocket storage on the go. size runs a tad on the small side so I needed to stretch it out a little to get a comfortable fit.
Pros: Great design, Performance, Ease of use, Cons: not waterproofLooks good and keeps the ears toasty
December 19, 2009
Bought one for my pops and considering getting one for myself too. Love the retro herringbone-like style and the fuzzy fleece on the inside. Definitely makes for a good cold weather/driving hat.
Okay Cap
June 28, 2011
This seemed like it would be a great cap/hat. However, it runs smaller than I expected and it has a weird crease down the middle of the visor. The crease keeps you from "'shaping" the visor/brim into a nice curve, like on your favorite baseball hat. Also, the wool is pretty scratchy and collected dog hair likes crazy.
Pros: Performance, Cons: Bad designwarm
November 27, 2011
This is a great warm hat. I don't live in that cold of a place but it keeps my head so warm I don't need a jacket. I love the separated fold in the bill, it keeps it's shape when worn but can be packed away easily. I might have picked a smaller size -but no complaints here.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Ease of useYukon Cap
January 05, 2011
I enjoy my new yukon hat it appears to be well made and keeps my head warm on cold days while shoveling snow
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Ease of use, Great valueGreat Hat, Loose Ear Flaps
January 25, 2011
Its a great hat, very warm fabric and nice brim. Only problem is the flaps are a little bit small & loose so while my head is warm, my ears get a little draft if its windy. Added a fabric cord and its much snugger. The brim has an interesting break at the center so it's easier to fold up in a pocket when not on your head, had never seen this design before and it works very well. As all things Outdoor Research, its a great piece of equipment and is used constantly!
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value, Cons: needs bigger ear flapsFantastic Cap!
January 04, 2012
Something like the Yukon Cap has been something my husband has been searching for ... for over 2 years! He is allergic to wool, but sometimes works outside in the winter with harsh conditions. Earflaps are a must for him, but almost all have been wool. It took a long search online to discover your cap, which I bought for him at Christmas. He is thrilled! The wind and cold weather don't bother him now. He also has a very large head, but the cap fits perfectly! YAY!! The long search is over!!
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Ease of use, warm non-wool earflapsWarm and cozy.
March 20, 2013
Had a nice fit and comfortable lining. The plaid Yukon style reminds me of old camping photos from the Fifties. The fold-able brim makes it easy to fold and store in your backpack without damaging it.
Pros: Build quality, Great valueGreat cap for cool weather
October 12, 2011
Picked this up early before the fall/winter season. Great during the night and early morning. Keeps my head warm and actually fits my huge head!!! Haven't used the ear flaps yet but those will come in handy shortly. Like the bill - you can fold the hat up fairly small and out of the way.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Great valueOutdoor Research Yukon Cap Photo

Hey, I came across this idea a couple of years ago. It's been a long time since I took introductory physics. But I'm curious as to whether this is feasible. If I'm crazy, just say so!
See attached image. 1. Intake tube, vacuum chamber and condenser are initially filled with water. Valve (A) remains open; valve (B) is closed. Vacuum chamber and condenser are raised to a height more than 10 meters above the intake reservoir. 2. Condenser is temporarily oriented such that its contents can drain into the chamber while the hydrostatic vacuum is forming. Water level in the intake tube settles at a height about 10 meters above the reservoir, balancing atmospheric pressure, while a vacuum is sustained in the chamber and condenser above that height. Valve (A) is closed. 3. At this point, the shelf inside the vacuum chamber has retained a significant amount of water from draining back down the intake tube. A solar collector focuses sunlight through the top of the glass container to slightly warm this water (>80˚F). 4. The warm water rapidly vaporizes in the presence of the vacuum. Water vapor diffuses into the condenser tube, condenses and accumulates at valve (B). 5. There must be enough space between the condenser and valve (B) to hold the same volume of water as does the evaporation shelf in the vacuum chamber. Once the transfer is complete, valve (B) is opened to discharge the distilled liquid. (Obviously there should be a separate valve on the chamber to let in atmosphere lest we blow the distilled water back inside). 6. In order to restart the process, both valves are opened while the displacement pump refills the vacuum chamber and condenser with water. Condenser is temporarily raised/oriented such that its contents do not flow out the open valve (B). 7. Once chamber and condenser are filled, valve (A) remains open and valve (B) is closed. Return to step 2. It seems that the only energy supplied besides sunlight is that for refilling the vacuum chamber with water each time. Here's my attempt at estimating the work required per use. Intake tube diameter: 1 cm Intake tube length: 1000 cm Intake tube volume: 785.4 cm^3 = .7854 L Vacuum chamber volume: 2 L Condenser volume: 1.5 L :: Total volume of water displacement: .7854 + 2 + 1.5 = 4.2854 L Mass of displacement: 4.2854 kg Height of displacement: 1 m (guess) :: Work done: 4.2854 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 * 1 m = 42.04 J Evaporation shelf volume: 1 L Energy input per liter distilled: ~42 J/L Considering that it ordinarily takes a whopping 2,573,598 J to boil off a liter of water, that figure is pretty unbelievable. Maybe I need to account for the work to overcome atmospheric pressure in lifting the water? Hmm. |

Sounds similar to a flash distillation system, where water is heated to a certain temperature, and then let into a chamber which has a reduced pressure.
If the water is heated to a temperature above the boiling point at chamber pressure, then pure water will flash into steam, which can be collected and condensed. This is one type of water maker used aboard ship. |

in practice i expect you'll have trouble with gases other than water vapor. Real condensers have "air ejectors" to remove noncondensibles. Most general purpose water contains dissolved air. The 'air ejector' is a substantial vacuum pump. Mine were steam powered so it's hard for me to put a number on their power requirement. Steamking probably knows more than i about evaporators. We made our boiler water by ion exchange resin beds. |

Hydrostatic Vacuum Distillation IdeaAir dissolvable in water at 1 atm and 25˚C: ~0.023 g/kg Mass of water: 1 kg Mass of escaped air: 0.023 g = 0.000023 kg Volume of vacuum chamber and condenser: 3.5 L = 0.0035 m^3 Density of diffused air: .000023 kg / 0.0035 m^3 = 0.0066 kg/m^3 Pressure increase due to diffused air: 0.0066 kg/m^3 * 287.058 J/kg*K * 298.15 K = 564.87 Pa = 0.1668 inHg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density...e_and_pressure) In theory, 0.1668 inHg shouldn't really affect the boiling point that much? |

Nice calc!
23milligrams = 23/29 millimole , or about 17ml at STP. If you remove that 17 ml between cycles you'll be okay just be aware it doesn't condense so will have to be removed mechanically. At 1/.017 = 56, so at 1/56 atmosphere it'll occupy a liter is that 1809 pascals? Lastly - remember that air is denser than steam, molecular weight is 29 vs 18, so it'll accumulate in the bottom. old jim |
Jan22-13, 09:33 AM
Looks like going from 0.5 to 0.6668 inHg it should rise from 15 to 20˚C (59-68˚F). But there has to be other factors hindering the vacuum formation. Otherwise I might as well expect to reach near 0.1668 inHg, boiling point -2˚C. And that's ridiculous! I'm failing to see why a mechanical vacuum pump is needed between cycles. But my education is an A.S. Math, so that could be the problem here Thanks for your time Mr. Jim. |
Jan22-13, 09:52 AM
temperature easily reachable with solar collector: 39˚C (102˚F) maximum pressure permissible to boil water at 39˚C: 6772.78 Pa (http://www.trimen.pl/witek/calculators/wrzenie.html) R = 8.3144621 J/mol*K T = 312.15 K (39˚C) P = 6772.78 Pa V = 3.5 L = 0.0035 m^3 n = unknown PV/RT = n (6772.78 Pa * 0.0035 m^3) / (8.3144621 J/mol*K * 312.15 K) = 0.009133506 mol molar mass of water: 18.0152 g/mol :: amt of water that can vaporize B4 boiling point exceeds solar warmth: 0.009133506 * 18.0152 = 0.17 g So vaporizing 0.17 mL of water "saturates" the vacuum chamber and condenser. If we stopped the cycle there, our production would be 247044 J/L. But as the vapor condenses in the cooler coil, I suppose the chamber pressure will drop again to continue the evaporation process. So there may not be a problem after all? |

IF secondhand information is allowable - a colleague used to operate flash evaporators on a submarine. They evaporate water at low pressure to chill it and that's the refrigeration for shipboard airconditioning. It had steam eductors to generate the vacuum, i suppose that'd be quieter than reciprocating compressors. He said it would freeze solid if you let it. Here's a link to vapor pressure of ice so you won't think i'm crazy: http://www.its.caltech.edu/~atomic/s...ls/ice/ice.htm I gather you completely fill the chamber with your displacement pump at bottom? That'd displace the air provided your vent is at top. Displacing air with water is mechanically removing it, just i didn't get that from your word picture. I have a touch of Asperger's and tend to miss subtleties... Not to hijack - just a thought... if you want to go further start another thread .. Thought Experiment: Some 'green' buildings use water vapor cycle for air conditioning. I have for years longed to make a residential solar water cycle airconditioning booster for the sunbelt. What's missing is conventional thinking always leaps to continuous instead of batch mode, when sunshine is itself a batch process useful maybe ten hours a day. If you could evaporate a 55 gallon drum of water over course of a day you'd be producing about a ton of airconditioning , almost enough for a modest house. At night it could drain back to reset for next day. old jim |

Veg Plotting is an eclectic blog, but inevitably I've built up quite a few articles about the various gardens, talks and shows I've visited over its lifetime. These have their own labels (Garden Visit, Showtime and Talks), but it can be quite irksome now to search through to see if there's something you'd like to read. This page is designed to make that search a little easier. Within each article you'll find further links gives you further useful information on each garden, show or talk. At the end of this page, I've added some links to more general websites, blogs and books which you may find useful.
If you're particularly interested in Malvern Spring Show, then might I point you in the direction of the blog dedicated to our bloggers gathering in May 2010? There's over 50 different articles covering all aspects of the show, as well as information on accommodation and local attractions in the area.

Beauty, history, culture, adventure—they all come together in Alabama, a state rich in everything from world-class golf to white-sand beaches. It's a place where each meal is a celebration, each town has a story and each day brings new discoveries. Alabama is filled with soulful cities such as Birmingham and Mobile, and one-of-a-kind attractions like the U.S. Space & Rocket Center and the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum. As for dining, whether you want slow-cooked Southern delights or an elegant night out, you will always find an incredible meal in Alabama.
Alabama Highlights
Best bargains
At the Unclaimed Baggage Center in Scottsboro, lost airline luggage is unpacked and sold to the public at discount prices. More than 7,000 new and second hand items are stocked daily, and all clothing is washed and sorted by size.
Don't overlook this...
Artists such as Aretha Franklin, The Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Otis Redding came to Alabama to record in the 1960s and 1970s in Muscle Shoals, called at the time the 'Hit Capital of the World'. Visit FAME and Muscle Shoals Sound Studios, just two of the recording studios located in the four adjacent cities of Florence, Sheffield, Tuscumbia and Muscle Shoals. Florence is also the city where the father of rock and roll (record producer Sam Phillips) and the father of the blues (musician W.C. Handy) were born. Handy's birthplace and museum welcomes visitors, and there are festivals and music events honouring both Handy and Phillips annually.
If you want to fit in...
- Order grits (coarsely ground corn) for breakfast, sweet ice tea at lunch and fresh gulf seafood for dinner
- Be sure to say "Y'all" (pronounced as one syllable, like 'yawl') when referring to a group of people—such as "Y'all look nice", "Hello y'all" and "Bye y'all"
Made in the state
In the rural hamlet of Gee's Bend, African-American quilters make marvellous works of art. Their style is based on traditional American and African-American designs, but with a geometric simplicity reminiscent of Amish quilts and modern art, now passed down through at least six generations. The women hone and teach their craft at the Gees Bend Quilters Collective. Visitors are welcome and you can purchase a quilt or even sew a square or two.
Must-see museum
The Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum features more than 1,200 vintage and modern motorcycles and racing cars, including the largest collection of Lotus sports cars and motorcycles dating back to 1904. The museum is part of the Barber Motorsports Park, which is also home to world-class racing and a driving school.
Only have one day here?
Walk from the Alabama Capitol building to the Alabama River in the footsteps of history. Along this short walk are museums and historical buildings. They include: the church where Dr. Martin Luther King preached; a museum honouring Rosa Parks at the location where she was arrested for refusing to move to the back of a bus; the Hank Williams Museum containing the car in which he was discovered dead in the back seat; a tunnel leading to the Alabama River through which slaves and cotton were transported; the First White House of the Confederacy; the Capitol building where representatives from southern states voted to leave the USA—and where some 100 years later, Dr. King led marchers to the steps in protest. In the evening, you can take a horse-drawn carriage along the route, just as many would have travelled when much of the history took place.
Outdoor excitement
- The longest urban whitewater-rafting course in the world starts in the twin cities of Phenix City, Alabama, and Columbus, Georgia, on the Chattahoochee River
- One of the world's most incredible golf destinations, the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail features 26 courses created by the famous course designer.
Where locals go to relax
Something magical happens when you visit the Alabama Gulf Coast, with its sparkling emerald water and 32 miles of white-sand beaches. The moment you arrive in Gulf Shores or Orange Beach, the world starts to fade away. You can go deep-sea charter fishing, scuba diving or on a dolphin watching cruise. Nearby is Mobile, with beautiful historic homes and moss-covered oak trees. Go kayaking to barrier islands off nearby Dauphine Island or birdwatching along the Alabama Coastal Birding Trail.
You might be surprised by...
The Moundville Archaeological Park is one of the most significant Native American archaeological sites in the USA. The 26 flat-topped earthen mounds were the location of the second-largest settlement of Mississippian culture, a people who pre-date the Choctaw and were in the region when the first European explorers arrived. At the time when Moundville was most heavily populated between 1000 and 1450 A.D., the community took the form of a 300-acre village built on a cliff overlooking the Black Warrior River.
Your child will always remember...
At the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, simulators let you experience a space shot, G-forces and weightlessness onboard a spacecraft. Tour the grounds of the U.S. Space Camp Training Center, where over the past 25 years, more than half a million children of all ages have come to experience life in the final frontier.

BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan (AP) - The emergencies ministry in Kyrgyzstan says a U.S. military plane has crashed in the country.
Kyrgyzstan hosts a U.S. base that is used for troops transiting into and out of Afghanistan and for C-135 tanker planes that refuel warplanes in flight. A ministry official who did not give his name said the plane crashed Friday afternoon near a village about 100 miles west of the base.
The head of the region that tells The Associated Press that the plane broke into three pieces when it crashed into an uninhabited area.
The U.S. base, called the Manas Transit Center, said it had no immediate information.

Mon. 8/13/12 9:12pm
hi dan, happy to be listening. i defended eno earlier at the bar, gave him a lifetime pass on account of the first 3 solo albums. U2 forgiven. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:13pm
hi dan, what's in the store for the listeners today? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:15pm
Dan B:
Hi all, welcome. Diamond Terrifier playing live in a few minutes. Plus tons of new vinyl releases tonight. @monte, yes, U2 forgiven. But wasn't that Daniel Lanois? I forgive him due to Neil Young's Le Noise! | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:16pm
Any form of involvement with U2 is never forgotten or forgiven. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:17pm
YO DAN! YO SAM! YO ENGINEER! Psyched to hear this. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:18pm
weren't wim wenders involved with u2 for some time? i find his work quite fogiveable | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:20pm
i'd take a paycheck off U2, teeth gritted, so no real judgment. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:21pm
cubicle carl:
Hey folks, play nice. Don't forget this is a freeform station. In the right context, even U2 can deliver. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:24pm
Dan B:
We're working our way into Diamond Terrifier's set of U2 covers, folks -- wait for it, wait for it... | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:26pm
"Kill the Self..." was great, like a cross between Don Cherry and Enya, but better! Ha ha. No, seriously, fine sounds. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:28pm
@cubicle carl: perhaps as a demarcation line. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:28pm
Dan B:
What a wild sound outta his sax | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:29pm
Dan B:
@Ike, didn't you catch the allusions to the "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" theme in there? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:35pm
cubicle carl:
@menefreghista: Ha! Possibly. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:35pm
DB, Sam coming in at pretty low volume. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:35pm
Better now. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 9:43pm
Dan B:
Hey all, did we manage to get Sam to an audible level while talking a couple of minutes ago? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:03pm
i was away, but this sounds good | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:08pm
hello DB, DT and everyone. Interesting times as usual at the Event. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:25pm
Digging the mule track already... | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:46pm
D in Miami:
Hey Dan and all. I just saw this split in the store and was wondering how good it was. Sounds good so far. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:46pm
that "steady diet of hash..." comp might be the best bargain in music in like forever. also, this pulse emitter et al split was so worth the wait. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:50pm
... the "steady diet" comp is free from the fma & here: http://soundeyet.bandcamp.com/ | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:52pm
Dan B:
@D, yeah, this split set is amazeballs. I was pretty torn between this track and one of the Expo 70 tracks. Everything on here is golden. Also, Steady Diet is pretty premium. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:55pm
i was worried the split had come & gone on recorrd store day before i even got a shot at it. once i found out it was delayed i pretty much spent the next few months madly reloading web pages until it appeared. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 10:55pm
D in Miami:
That comp does look pretty tasty. Have to czech it out later. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:00pm
YEAAAH DAAAAAN! THANK YOU FOR THIS OM TRACK. This really brings my day to a total consummation. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:01pm
Dan B:
@RISKY, me too! I am loving this new OM record so much. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:02pm
D in Miami:
I just read the review on brainwashed today. Mixed. I don't really know his stuff, but I thought this sounds pretty good. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:12pm
D in Miami:
Fleetwood? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:14pm
Yes D, fleetwood! Spectacular! | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:15pm
damn. between this raajmahal thing and trailmix's reworking of "you make lovin' fun," i think i'm developing a taste for fleetwood mac | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:15pm
D in Miami:
Reminds me of Julianna Barwick. Beautiful! | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:17pm
Dan B:
Pretty awesome. Blame it on my wild heart! (Which Lucius covered on this show a couple of months back) | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:17pm
anyone got a link for Raajmahal zip or rar? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:19pm
That Lucius show was very nice | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:21pm
D in Miami:
Check out Microphones in the Trees blog before it gets taken down. Just buy it, man. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:25pm
pretty much every dan b show causes me to buy at least one record. between diamond terrifier and myrrh, this episode's shaping up to be an expensive one. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:28pm
lol, well my record player is pretty much a piece of shit.. i just dont spend money on vinyl man. i have other things to $$$$ on. :s of course its important to support the artist but its not that simple breheem. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:28pm
D in Miami:
Not only Dan but all the shows I listen to keep my wallet thin. Thanks FMU for keeping my wallet thin! Now I don't sit so lopsided anymore. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:30pm
it kinda is that simple, matt: the artists and labels (and wfmu) don't exist unless you pitch in. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:31pm
Dan B:
I just spent $20 I don't really have on that Om 2xLP. At least shipping was free. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:33pm
at least the diamond terrifier i can maybe cheap out on 'cause nspy sells flac downloads. but i'm torn 'cause i loves the shiny vinyl. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:34pm
D in Miami:
Most of what I listen to comes in like 500 or less copies, so I can't really wait around sometimes, unless I want to pay more on discogs later. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:34pm
w/e dont have to get snappy mang. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:37pm
D in Miami:
And sometimes really difficult to find DLs. Sucks, but that's my taste buds killing me. I've got about 50 blogs bookmarked to search for DLs when I want them. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:37pm
that could be said for the independent publishing companies that i choose to give my money too for books/ art publications. so chill. also ive had my days with vinyl. its cool and everything but you kind of have to choose between purchases sometimes. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:42pm
D in Miami:
We're not coming down on you. Matt. I don't earn a lot of cash, but I just really like to have the actual copy and support. I find that a lot of the vinyl I buy lately goes up in price, so if I need some cash, I sell some to buy more. I only have about 450 total in my collection. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:43pm
word. i know D. : P | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:44pm
i just think that in situations like that maybe you should forgo the d/l. or at least not troll for d/l links at places like fmu that depend intimately on the ability of artists to sustain their art. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:46pm
Dan B:
It's a good conversation, gentle folks. But let's keep it civil, K? | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:48pm
who's the troll here.. Trying 2 Dan. sorry | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:50pm
D in Miami:
The DLs usually get me to buy, or at least search out a copy for years till I find it. It's not all bad. I don't really have any DLed music on my comp. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:50pm
Dan B:
Now now, no one's trolling. Everyone has a different take on the whole DL issue. Let him who is without sin cast the first stone, though, OK everyone? Let's let it go. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:51pm
i swear on this ptv3 track genesis sounds exactly like the dude from fields of the nephilim. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:52pm
haha word Dan B. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:53pm
Dan B:
@dave, LOL so true. S/he has done interesting things with hir voice in recent years. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:54pm
yeah, the vocal range is stunning, but it's pretty much matched by the insane musical territory they've covered. | |
Mon. 8/13/12 11:55pm
D in Miami:
5 more minutes of another great show, Dan! I hope to catch next weeks live! | |

Tatsuya Abe is Japan's crab-meat king. Seven years ago, he cofounded the Yamato seafood company in Shiogama, Miyagi province, to offer the best-quality imported Russian and Alaskan taraba crab, red crab, and other cooked and processed seafood. A year later, the father-of-one decided to experiment with e-commerce, launching an online store "which no one thought would work" in a crowded internet mall called Rakuten Ichiba, which today claims to offer for sale 102,953,743 separate items. Guaranteeing overnight postal delivery of juicy chunks of fresh red king crab, Abe's business began slowly, with ¥130,000 (£1,040) of sales in the first month, barely a dent on its factory wholesale business.
But since then, thanks to relentless blogging, feedback from his personal "e-commerce consultant", and his crab-meat's sheer reputation, monthly sales have risen 300-fold to ¥40m. "We're very surprised by how many people want to buy crabmeat on the internet," Abe, 30, reflects with a smile at a baseball stadium in Sendai, where as a star trader he has been invited as a Rakuten matchday guest. "Japanese people love crab. And Rakuten is a huge market. Our e-commerce business is now twice as big a business as the factory business." Continue reading
Imagine a world where banks take into account your online reputation alongside traditional credit ratings to determine your loan; where headhunters hire you based on the expertise you've demonstrated on online forums such as Quora; where your status from renting a house through Airbnb helps you become a trusted car renter on WhipCar; where your feedback on eBay can be used to get a head-start selling on Etsy; where traditional business cards are replaced by profiles of your digital trustworthiness, updated in real-time. Where reputation data becomes the window into how we behave, what motivates us, how our peers view us and ultimately whether we can or can't be trusted.
Welcome to the reputation economy, where your online history becomes more powerful than your credit history. Continue reading
These days, animated movies are nearly all digital. We're not complaining -- when we're being dazzled by the latest CG masterpiece, we don't miss hand-drawn cells, Claymation or stop-motion. But then we saw ParaNorman and realised what we'd been missing.
The darkly comic story follows a boy trying to save his home town from a centuries-old curse (screenwriter and codirector Chris Butler describes the film as "John Carpenter meets John Hughes"). Like Aardman Animation's The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists (Wired 04.12), ParaNorman uses a 3D printer to create its puppets' faces. Continue reading
On June 15 this year, 13 giant screens in New York's Times Square lit up with 50 portraits. The faces may not have been instantly recognisable, but their work is. Together they created Google, Facebook, Twitter, Skype and many more tech giants.
"The geek and the rock star are now one," says photographer Kevin Abosch, whose photos were shown to coincide with the F.ounders web conference. "There's something comforting to see the human side of the products that are transforming our lives." Continue reading
The big dude with the tattoos and the bad case of five o'clock shadow served roasted kabocha squash, organic Brussels sprouts, and free-range chicken breast. None of this would have been notable had the dish been prepared by just another hipster chef, during just another lunch hour here among the food-obsessed in Palo Alto, California. But this dish was something else. It was the future.
We had come to the artisanally fed vale of Facebook and Tesla to sample the first fruits of Lyfe Kitchen, a soon-to-be-chain of restaurants that might just shift the calculus of American cuisine. At Lyfe Kitchen (the name is an acronym for Love Your Food Everyday), all the biscuits shall be dairy-free, all the beef from grass-fed, humanely raised cows. There shall be no butter, no cream, no white sugar, no white flour, no high-fructose corn syrup, no GMOs, no trans fats, no additives and no need for alarm: there will still be plenty of burgers. Lyfe's ambition is to open hundreds of restaurants initially across the US. Continue reading

Unique style. I like how the clouds seem to be the focus of the drawing even when they are in the background, rather than the foreground.
Oh my gosh!!! I really wish I could draw landscapes like youuu! TT_TT 5h n faves as usual!
this is a neat one :D love the layers of mountain things. and the clouds be so puffy. I agree, clouds freak me out... i dunno why... I had a horribly realistic dream once that the clouds got all weird and the world ended. ._. love dat tree. +5!
Cool, clouds aren't the easiest thing to draw. You've done a very nice job of them :)

While the new version of Sony's PlayStation 3 console isn't exactly short on hard drive space--particularly if you're picking up one of the 250GB or 500GB versions--those with large media collections, or those hoping to save a few pounds by picking up the 12GB flash version may be wondering how to replace the system's built in storage.
Unlike previous versions of the PlayStation 3, which had a visible hard drive slot, the super-slim's is cheekily concealed, and there's no information about the slot at all in the manual. Fortunately, replacing the hard drive is simple once you've figured out where its supposed to go.
Note that if you're replacing an old PS3 with the super-slim and want to retain all your data, you will first need to deactivate purchases on your old console, connect both of them together via ethernet, and use the Data Transfer Utility to transfer the files. You can find a full guide on the process here.
STEP ONE: First off, find the top of your PS3; that's the end without the rubber PlayStation logo nubbin covering the screw hole for the stand. Then slide the plastic side-panel away from you to reveal the hard drive slot.
STEP TWO: With the side-panel removed, the hard drive slot is revealed. Unscrew the blue screw using a standard philips-head screwdriver.
STEP THREE: Once you've removed screw simply pull the hard drive away from the console using the rather handy handle.
STEP FOUR: Flip the hard drive over to reveal four screws, which keep the metal caddy attached to it. You need to remove all four screws and then reattach them, along with the caddy to your new hard drive. Then simply slide the new hard drive into the console, reattach the screw and side panel, and you're good to go.
We noticed our new PS3 super-slim came fitted with a 7.5mm, 500GB hard drive. 7.5mm drives are typically used in slim laptops like ultrabooks, due to being thinner than standard 9.5mm drives. That said, the PS3's hard drive slot is large enough to accommodate 9.5mm drives should you wish to use one.

I am sure the hundreds of thousands of people put to death by Kim and his father/grandfather would totally LOL at this commercial.
Video: Dennis Rodman pursues diplomacy with North Korea via pistachios
Dennis Rodman's ambassadorial relationship with North Korea has apparently come to a head. After months of visits and public reflection on North Korea and its "supreme leader" Kim Jong-un, Rodman has finally been anointed as a diplomat…on behalf of pistachios everywhere.
In this baffling spot from Wonderful Pistachios, Rodman jumps the shark on the whole ordeal in being blasted to bits by a Jong-un lookalike. It's an odd treatment considering that Rodman controversially deemed Jong-un, the leader of a country guilty of heinous human rights violations, his "friend for life," to say nothing of the choice to make light of nuclear tension with North Korea as a commercial endeavor. Strange decisions all around.
I can't really decide if this is too strange for Rodman, or not strange enough for him.

text: A water soluble omega 3 fatty acid has been developed by Zymes using nanotechnology for cosmetic applications. Since Omega 3 has got a dense composition of oil therefore at times it becomes difficult for formulating it with other ingredients. Here nanotechnology comes into picture as it offers increased solubility along with bioavailability and particle size reduction at nanometer level which leads to increased opportunities for companies looking to supplement their products with natural functional ingredients. Ubisol-Aqua from Zymes implements nanotechnology for improving the solubility of drugs and ingredients which are water insoluble and hence it becomes difficult for the human body to absorb it. The company has developed an omega 3fatty acid with 34 nanometers which implies that smaller particles could be absorbed easily into the skin or hair shaft of the user. It is also expected to increase the health benefits to the consumers. Via cosmeticdesign

I'm not sure which section to post this in, but it's slightly technical so I decided on the musical thread....
Anyway, as I'm sure most of you know, Weezer self-produced Pinkerton with the help of a number of engineers. They couldn't get the sounds they wanted and ended up getting producer Dave Fridmann to engineer half the album. In this video Dave explains how he came to work with Weezer and what it was like recording them – particularly "Butterfly".
I'll be posting more cool Weezer stuff like this soon. Follow at http://twitter.com/FutureHeartDay

Avoid Death
Go to Pleasant Rest Graveyard. Near the gate is a bush called "Death Flower Bush". Harvest the flower from it and keep it in your Sim's inventory. If you die, that Sim will give that flower to the Grim Reaper and be resurrected. Although the flower will not reappear there again, if your Sim has level 7 Gardening they can plant the Unknown Special Seeds found in the graveyard and some other places that have a chance to grown as a Death Flower. Note: Having the Green Thumb trait to revive the plant may help.

Impasto work by Ignacious Wentling
Whether the work is painted canvas, print, or thrown pottery, Ignacious Wentling is a multi-talented artist with a penchant for texture. His work recalls the soothing, natural beauty of Plein-Air landscapes, while his sculptural, impasto brushwork enthusiastically reveals striking spatial evolutions that lead the viewer to question whether the work is truly a landscape or something less definable. As an artist, he believes that he is "constantly challenged to analyze each step along the developmental progression to determine aesthetic wholeness and balance in form, texture, color, and composition." But, such adherence to traditional rules doesn't mean this artist's work is in any way traditional. Mr. Wentling embraces accident and risk for "the naturally formed element of each artwork gives rise to an appreciation of individuality which can never be precisely duplicated."
The library is pleased to present this exhibition throughout the month of December.
