I'm glad to see Helplessness Blues on your list, CranberrySauce, I think that lead singer/songwriter is really smart and that song sums up the general feeling amongst young people. It's like, I know something is wrong, but I can't even begin to articulate or make sense of what's really going on, but I know in my head and my heart that something is not right. Just because I can't articulate it, does that mean that I should just shut up about it and pretend that everything's okay and just support some corrupt politician who promises "change" when the real issue has nothing to do with politics, but it's more about what's happened to our culture and society in general and who's responsible for what's happened. Yeah I'm tongue tied and dizzy, and f it, what I really want to do is own an orchard.
Could be the song of our generation.

Very Simon and Garfunkel like, a very, very cool band.
I'm looking at my list and I feel like my musical tastes are very fluid, I get stuck on songs and bands but I'm not sure I have a definite top songs of all time. I really like all the songs on my list, but certainly they aren't my all time favorites. So I've been sitting here for the last two minutes thinking really hard and I think I can come up with a top 10 sans Beatles. I think they just have to be songs that put you somewhere, no matter what the circumstances are when you hear them.
1) The Only Living Boy in New York – Simon and Garfunkel…what can I say, I'm a sucker for acoustic guitar and dreamy, floating harmonies and everytime I hear this song I can't help but close my eyes and breath in the aaaahhhs.
2) Come to Me – Koop
3) Don't Think Twice, It's Alright – Bob Dylan
4) Cissy Strut – the Meters (the definition of funk)
5) Jealous Guy – Dr. Winston O'Boogie
6) Sweet Painted Lady – Elton John
7) Green Onions – Booker T and the MGs
8) II Cerchio Rosso – Nicola Conte
9) In a Mellow Tone – Ella Fitzgerald
10) Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea –
5 November 2011

Unknown, wow, "25 or 6 to 4"
Hadn't thought of that one in a while.
I heard Chicago play that when they opened for (I think) Jethro Tull. That was their only hit at the time, and they played it for what seemed like 20 minutes. It was great; blew everyone away. Love that guitar.

I'm not sure I would classify these as my top 25 of all time, but they're the songs I thought of right away. I would probably add a couple of songs by Coldplay (Violet Hill, Green Eyes) or take others away if you forced me. I obviously left out Beatles and solo Beatles songs because they are a different beast all together. I don't really think of them as favorite songs…just part of my ears, really. I would probably add some more Johnny Cash, Mama Tried by Merle Haggard, and some George Strait (Troubador). Dixie Chicks, too.
1 May 2010
My friend and I were trying to come up with our definitive top five or so at work and I think I've come up with a decent list for now. It's just hard to keep all these songs in your head, what I like now I might not like as much or remember how much I like in a few months. So as of right now…
(1) After the Gold Rush – Neil Young. I just can't help but smiling at this one, Neil's voice is the only one that affects me like John's does.
(2) Funky Miracle – the Meters. So simple, just like funk should be.
(3) Father and Son – Cat Stevens. Thanks to paulsbass for the recommendation.
(4) Girl – Los Beatles
(5) Peaches en Regalia – Frank Zappa. Fantasia on drugs, that's the best way to describe it.
(6) Am I Blue – Billie Holiday
5 January 2012

Not sure i can get 25 exactly so it may be slightly over/under, no beatles and 3 per artist max. Plus they're not in any order.
Its Not My Fault – Buddy Holly
If You Dont Love Me – Kylie Minogue
Picture – Sheryl Crow & Kid Rock
Its Over – Kendall Payne
Cocaine Blues (@ Fulsom Prison) – Johnny Cash
Love Of My Life – Queen
The Boxer – Simon and Garfunkel

It Doesnt Matter Anymore – Buddy Holly
Best Of My Love – The Eagles
There You Go – Johnny Cash
Reminiscing – Buddy Holly
Closer – Kendall Payne
Save Me – Queen

My Favourite Mistake – Sheryl Crow
Wild Mountain Thyme – The Silencers
Back To Normal – Kendall Payne
Stay (I Miss You) – Lisa Loeb
Wicked Game – Chris Isaak
No One Said It Would Be Easy – Sheryl Crow
No doubt there are silly omissions that should have been included and some songs when analysed which shouldnt have been.
As for solo beatles, it would be wrong to include them above, as i type these are the 10 i would put on a cd if i could only save 10, tho if more thought was given these would no doubt change.
Another Day – Paul
Run Of The Mill – George
Jealous Guy – John
I'm Losing You – John
Instant Karma – John
Fish On The Sand – George
On The Way – Paul
Summers Day Song – Paul
Isnt It A Pity (Version 1) – George
Real Love (John Lennon Anthology) – John
10 August 2011
Meanmistermustard, "On the Way"? Had to look that up. What, pray tell, do you see in that song?
On the other hand, even if it doesn't crack the top 10, I always thought "Summer's Day Song" was under-rated to the extent that no one ever talks about it. It has a quasi religious or zen aspect to it. Very meditative in a beautiful way.
1 May 2011
re On the Way I love Pauls vocal with all the echo, and the guitar and the drums sound great, plus i like the lyrics. (To go off on a tangent i like songs with lyrics which dont go down the whole ''i will love you forever and everything is going to be just super and pink and everyday i will make you pancakes and we will never argue and i will never do anything to hurt you'' route. One of my favourite lines in any song is '"if you should ever leave me, life would still go on believe me'" from God Only Knows (tho i've heard the song 100 times too many), which moves away from the whole 'if we should ever part then life would be over' theme. There is a song called Fail by Kendall Payne which on initial hearing is the most depressing song ever (i will fail you and you will fail me repeatedly thru life) but goes on to say that despite all we will stay together because of the love we have, which i find far more honest and realistic.)
(Getting back on topic) I remember playing the lp as a kid and just being blown away by the sound of the song. Its not the Paul i think people say Paul is (clean and prim and nice) and i love it when he goes for the more rough sounding stuff, which is why i Wild Life is one of my favourite macca albums.
Would totally agree with your comments on Summers Day Song, the no vocal cut on the uber deluxe Macca 2 is also so calming. There is an instrumental outtake, from the Ram sessions i think, called Sunshine Sometimes which is just so gorgeous sounding I can easily get lost in it.

Dallas-based 7-Eleven is joining retailers across the country in pulling a controversial Rolling Stone magazine from newsstands with a Boston Marathon bombing suspect on the cover.
"7-Eleven, Inc.'s position is to NOT sell the Aug. 1 issue of Rolling Stone," said company spokeswoman Margaret Chabris in a statement to FOX4.
Chabris said the convenience store chain will not sell the upcoming edition with surviving bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the cover in its approximately 1,700 company-operated outlets around the nation.
7-Eleven is strongly recommending to its 5,900 franchised stores that they not sell the issue as well.
7-Eleven joins other stores like CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens in banning the issue from newsstands.
Rolling Stone explained the reason for the story in a statement.
"The fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is young, and in the same age group as many of our readers, makes it all the more important for us to examine the complexities of this issue and gain a more complete understanding of how a tragedy like this happens," the magazine said.
Subscribers started receiving the issue in the mail this week and retailers were set to begin newsstand sales on Friday.

Shwi NoMtekhala release new album
Shwi NoMtekhala are back in business with the release of their new album 'Uyoba Unenhlanhla'.
The multi-platinum-selling Maskandi duo have returned to reclaim their spot in the music industry after taking a break since their album flopped in 2007.
According to the duo, their latest album will take the traditional music genre by storm.
Mandla Xaba , who is known as Shwi, said: "It was not our aim to release a flop. The company had initially told us that we would not release anything that year.
"Later they changed their minds and we were not given enough time to work on the album. We like to to be able to take pride in whatever we do."
Mtekhala, whose real name is Rodgers Magubane, says the new album consists of fresh maskandi rhythms blended with mbaqanga sounds.
"We have explored different sounds, while retaining the old style of maskandi and at the same time modernising it to deliver a unique maskandi."
"This time we pulled up our socks and, more than that, had enough time to tune our sound," said Mtekhala.
Speaking about their personal experiences of growing up without fathers, Xaba said: "Take songs like 'Wangisiza Baba', 'Woza Baba' and 'Angimaz'ubaba' tackling the issue of growing up without a father figure. We thought it a very interesting subject since we both lost our our fathers at an early age."
Shwi NoMtekhala's big break came in the form of their 2004 album 'Wangisiza Baba' which had sales exceeding half a million copies.
In 2006 they returned with 'Angimaz'uBaba' which also did well.
The group have won three South African traditional Music Awards and two South African Music Awards.

Keith Vaughn: Visual Relaxation
Focusing mostly on oil and acrylics on canvas, Keith Vaughn paints out plain tropical windows that are framed in this early 90s design revival look.

Andy Gilmore seems to have always been up there an ISO50 readers favorite, just found out that Ghostly International put up 6 new posters of his this morning.
A game designer and programmer, James D. Sachs created his art using his Amiga, usually at lowest resolution (320×200). Amazing stuff. Makes me feel like I'm playing EcoQuest again.
If you have about 2 hours to kill i'd suggest going thoroughly through the 150 year history of the stamps and imagery from the Dutch Postal Service.
Soo many beautiful announcements happened for Jacob and Thomas from Beacon, first off they just announced the preorder of their debut LP along with a sugar based sculpted record holder limited to only 20 pieces. Before that they shared a new mix and some spring tour dates, all of it is here in one place along with the process video of the making of the art edition record frame.
About the artist:
Fernando Mastrangelo has exhibited nationally and internationally for the last decade. Mastrangelo uses materials such as sugar, coffee, corn, gunpowder, human cremated ash, and other more controversial substances. He often addresses social, cultural, and political issues with unconventional timely works. His works are included in numerous private collections around the world, as well as the Brooklyn Museum of Art, where you can currently see his 2008 sculpture "Avarice," a rendition of the Aztec calendar cast entirely from White Mexican Corn.

It would be difficult to understate the influence of Lawren Harris' abstract landscapes on Canadian identity. As a founding member of The Group of Seven, Harris pioneered a distinctly Canadian school of art that departed from European contemporaries of the same era. Minimal in texture and detail, his grandiose landscapes use sweeping curves and simplified abstract forms to capture a wider, almost spiritual representation of a landscape.
Fairly covering Harris' entire career in a single blog post is tricky, but what I've presented here are the some of his best known works from Northern Ontario (Lake Superior) in the 1920′s and the Rocky Mountains and Arctic during the 1930′s. I've also provided a look at some of the more abstract, but less celebrated work he painted during the late 1930′s and 40′s. Overall, I find most of what he painted during these years to imbue a remarkable sense of modernism, and something I'm hoping readers of ISO50 can appreciate.
I know some of you are most likely familiar with the Group of Seven and Lawren Harris, but if not I would love to know what you think and if you find the work inspiring.

If you're interested watching a black and white interview with Harris, here's something from the CBC Archives (c1961). Please excuse the commercials.
Kahn & Selesnick's amazing martian-inspired photo series, gluing actual photos of the martian landscape taken by NASA's Spirit & Opportunity rovers, with WWII bunkers, concrete sculptures, vintage russian space helmets, and landscapes in Nevada and Utah. Mmmm.
Paintings such as Samantha Keely Smith's make me want to throw my camera away and pick up a paint brush again. I miss the quiet, tranquil nights or afternoons where it felt like it was just me and my canvas and the world around me dissolved entirely. I love inspiration like Samantha's paintings.
According to her website, she uses oil on canvas along with shellac, varnish and enamel. I'd imagine, given the size of these paintings, that they command every ounce of your attention. They are simply powerful. Her new work is jaw dropping and I can't imagine what they look like and how they would make me feel viewing them in person. If any one feels like buying me the first one, I would forever be your friend.
I could sit here and explain how I feel about Samantha's work but I would rather let her paintings speak to you. Take a look at her website to see the rest of her work and her artist statement. I would be first in line to purchase a print if she offered them.

Quote of the day – Stop cowboy recruiters
05 February 2013
"The recruitment industry is worth USD 400 billion dollars a year globally and annual pay packets can reach AUD 400,000-plus, so it's of no surprise the sector attracts so-called cowboys. There are no qualifications needed to become a recruiter, often little to no training available and no regulations to manage conduct.
"The industry has to be better regulated and enforce penalties and liability for poor and unethical conduct to raise the standard of professionalism and ultimately reduce the negative impacts on job seekers," said Shaun McCambridge, managing director of staffing company Stellar Recruitment. He addressed the poor reputation of the Australian staffing industry in the Daily Mercury.

With prospering careers and a three-year-old daughter, David and Tarilyn Deville seem to be living the American dream. But instead of a life of comfort, tragic events in their past led the couple to a life of service — in the ER and District Attorney's office by day, and on the streets of Philadelphia by night as crime-fighters MIDKNIGHT and KNIGHTINGALE. Or, at least, after bedtime.
Animation-style adventures from the mind of Star Wars fan-favorite Tom Hodges, artist for "Star Wars: Evasive Action", "You Can Draw Star Wars" and more.

Colchester: Town's MP pushes for UNESCO status
9:00am Friday 30th October 2009 in Local news Exclusive By Clare Jeffs
Moves are under way to have historic Colchester recognised as a UNESCO world heritage site.
Local MP Bob Russell believes the town's built heritage is so worthy of preservation that it ranks alongside Georgian Bath, Stonehenge, the Tower of London and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew - all holders of the coveted title.
Now he is taking the matter up with Colchester Council, and, if members decide to go to take the first steps towards listing, has promised to promote their cause at parliamentary level.
"I think Colchester merits consideration through its status as the first capital of Roman Britain," he said.
"We have so much: the Roman wall, the Gosbecks site, Boudicca, Britain's only Roman racing circuit, the Norman castle, the rich culture of the Dutch Quarter, the Siege of Colchester during the Civil War, right through to our Victorian barracks and 'Twinkle, twinkle, little star' nursery rhyme.
"I am going to suggest to the borough council that they consider going for world heritage site status."

Dave Telep recently tweeted this:
Keep hearing that Shaq Goodwin is adamant about playing football and hoops in college. Some schools are concerned about the 2 sport option
I know Maryland has some interest and Shaq also has a little interest in MD. I know his recruitment is a long shot, but this brought up a question I have been wondering about. What is everyone's opinion on 2-sport athletes at major D1 schools?
Goodwin is a big-time basketball prospect, unanimous 5-star, top-15 prospect. Apparently he is also pretty good at football. Both Georgia and Tennessee have told him he could play both sports if he played there.
How much does everyone think playing 2-sports hurts your development/success in both sports? How good would a recruit have to be for you to take them knowing theyd be playing both sports over a recruit just a little bit worse/ lower ranked that is fully dedicated to one?

Clay L. Vaughan, the head of Old Dominion's Elise N. Hofheimer Art Library, died Feb. 14, 2009, in Norfolk after a brief illness.

He was born April 4, 1955, attended Granby elementary and high schools, studied philosophy and literature at Virginia Commonwealth University and moved back to Norfolk in 1987 to raise a family.
His knowledge and assistance at the art library was enormously admired and appreciated by students and faculty. Faculty in the art department were among his closest friends.
Vaughan also dedicated his time and energy as managing editor of the Powhatan Review. His passions were art, writing poetry, researching his family's genealogy, reading literature, biographies and history, and listening to music of all kinds.
Survivors include three daughters, Kaitlin, Hannah and Molly; his parents, Edwin and Alice Vaughan; four brothers, Mark, Billy, Eric and Russell; many nieces, nephews, aunts and cousins; and countless friends.

Questions & Answers
Office Star Mid-Back Dual Function Ergonomic Office Chair with Adjustable Arms
Nice chair
Boris from CA– Verified Buyer
Pretty nice and comfortable chair. Assembly was OK and the quality seems good.
Great chair
Seth from Vancouver, WA– Verified Buyer
Awesome chair, well worth the investment. I've purchased more expensive chairs in the past, but love how comfortable and durable this one seems.
Ajay Kothari from NJ
I like comfortable support and professional look. Easy to assemble and nice color choices. Expensive but well worth it for back support.
Well built, nicely padded seat and back.
Dorothea from Raleigh, NC– Verified Buyer
Like most office chairs, this one is a bit large for me as I believe they use the larger dimensions of men when designing them. I am able to make adjustments though and find the chair quite comfortable. The depth of the seat is still longer than I would like for my smaller frame (5' 2" ) but I'm used to chairs being too big. Being able to adjust the height helps make the seat depth less of a problem.
Great Chair
Joel from Carmel, IN– Verified Buyer
Very well built, comfortable, feels like a full size executive chair, but compact footprint.
Nice chair, reasonable price
Sulprak from Santa Cruz, CA
Easy-to-assemble chair, seems fairly comfortable even after a few days, though back does not provide lumbar support, no matter how adjusted.
Great Office Chair
Baglady68 from Clermont, FL– Verified Buyer
It was exactly what I needed for my corner desk; without the armrests it fits perfectly. I would definitely buy it again!
Great Chair
Linda from Redlands, CA
[...] Easy to assemble. With all its adjustments - this chair is perfect for me.
Decent chair, cheap parts, overpriced
Ed from Los Angeles, CA
This chair is almost perfect. It's comfortable and offers good support. The only thing that upsets me is the quality of some of the components that come with this chair. The two flimsy plastic covers that go on the spine of the chair were crushed when I received the chair. It's appalling how cheap and thin these parts are. They make this overall nice looking chair look so cheap. I will be contacting the manufacturer in trying to get these parts replaced. I will update my review if I can.
Great: it is adjustable so that several people can use it.
All styles and models of Office Star chairs are available at Wayfair.

- Weak economy works in favor of getting more road work done
Street Smarts has been fielding questions from readers seeking to know why work had seemingly stopped on the ramp project on Highway 1 at Salinas Road, just south of Watsonville.
"The project has been delayed because of extensive utility relocation work which needed to be completed before the next phase of the project can proceed," said Susana Cruz, Caltrans spokeswoman.
This involves moving Pacific Gas & Electric Co., cable TV and AT&T facilities from the old overhead lines to the new underground facilities, she said.
"The work had to be sequenced to allow each utility to relocate their lines," Cruz said. "The last of the relocation work is currently being done by AT&T."
AT&T's project was the most "time consuming," Cruz said, because several hundred communication lines are being re-spliced, a process that requires the approval of AT&T customers. This work is expected to wrap up this month.
Next, the general contractor will install a detour for Highway 1 along a new frontage road to Jensen Road, which is parallel to the highway, Cruz said.
"A new temporary extension of Salinas Road to Highway 1 will also be constructed," she said.
When construction on the detour begins, expect ample signage alerting drivers of the detour, Cruz said. The work will last about eight months.
"Then the contractor can complete the construction of the overcrossing structure and the new roadway for Highway 1," Cruz said.
The $30 million project involves building an overpass that will allow vehicles on southbound Highway 1 to easily and safely access Salinas Road.
As it is now, the intersection is a dangerous. From 2001 and 2005, 83 collisions occurred there with three fatals, Caltrans reported.
The project is to wrap up in the summer of 2013.
For more information about this and other Caltrans projects, visit www.dot.ca.gov/dist05.
Anatomy of stopped highway traffic
Sometimes when you're driving on a highway, traffic comes to a crawl or stop. Usually, it doesn't take much to figure out why. When traffic speed does pick up again, you may see some indication of what was behind the back-up, such as a disabled vehicle on the side of the road, a CHP officer aiming a speed detective device at oncoming traffic or conducting a traffic stop.
Other explanations for the brake lights include vehicles entering and exiting the freeway, as well as the lane jockeying associated with those movements.
However, there are times when freeway traffic goes from 65-0 mph and back up to speed again with no sign of trouble. Go to the following web page for an article that explains the mystery behind traffic slow downs, sent to Street Smarts by a friend in law enforcement.
Street Smarts appears Mondays. Read the daily blog at www.santacruzlive.com/blogs/streetsmarts or on Facebook or Twitter. Submit questions or comments to email@example.com or via the aforementioned social media sites. Be sure to include your name and city of residence.

8 cool Google Labs projects spared the axe
Google recently killed off several experimental projects, but these eight live on
8 cool Google Labs projects spared the axe
After Google announced in July that Google Labs would be closing, several experimental products under development were killed, including ones that had been hyped during their original launch: Aardvark, Fast Flip, and Google Notebook.
But Google has spared others (for now) from the executioner's axe, and these have been "graduated" into their own sites or are in the process of being spun off. Here are the ones that we think are worthy of your attention.

Synching Music To Windows Phone 8
Upgraded to a Lumia 920 from the HD7 last week, spent about half an hour trying to sync my music using a preferred method (synching using a media player). Where is the Zune replacement with wireless Sync or even just synching. I had to open Xbox Music and the Windows Phone app on windows 8 to try and sync my music, but the interface of the later really irked me (have you guys seen it?) I ended up using Windows Media Player to Sync my music, Works Perfectly; which means it will soon be discontinued.. Oh wait..... Is there something out there, maybe I'm being silly, how do you guys sync your music, I would really like to know, Cheers!!

Post subject: weight gain with c. diff.
I'm back, my daughter is on her second treatment for c. diff. We're waiting for the results (should hear tomorrow, I hope).
I'm still very confused. How can she be gaining weight (10 lbs or more) while having C. Diff? It doesn't make sense!
She's worried about eating because it hurts her stomach, she's not excercising hardly at all because as soon as she moved around she would have to run to the washroom.
This doesn't make sense at all!!
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

It is clear you are worried, would you mind giving us a bit more information, we may be able to help.
Is your daughter eating?
Is she drinking?
How often is she urinating? (going for a wee).
Has the weight gain caused any of her body to look swollen?
Sorry for all the questions, if you can answer these questions and tell us anything else that is worrying you, through your own instincts, we may then be able to help you.

Post subject: questions
My daughter is 18 yrs old. Mentally handicapped, deaf, epileptic. She has not been hospitalized since 2003 and the last time she had an antibiotic was 2005. She has been around a person who's was hospitalized (me for cancer) but that was in 2006 and I never got c. Diff.
She started her 'runs' end of August after having spent 10 days at a specialised sleep away camp in July. She would complain of stomach aches but not severe and she started soiling herself on her way to school. The drive can sometimes take 1 hour with traffic and the driver cannot pull over on the highway.
We had been to see the doctor by end of September and he thought that she could be lactose intolerant. We did all the testing for it and because the results were not completely conclusive the lab said that it was strongly possible.
We started giving her lactaid when we gave her something with lactose, cut out all major milk products. That seemed to help for about a week (probably just taking her off milks gave her some temporary relief). Then it all started again and her school said that it must not be that and that Tina, my daughter, could not return to school until the problem was resolved.
Back to the doctor who finally sent her for more tests which included stool samples. Those came back positive for C.Dif. 5 days before Christmas. We started the meds. By January 7th we sent her to school. It had been about 7 days after the end of her course of meds and we thought she was ok.
She came home that day, again having soiled herself (which by the way upsets her to no end). So it was back to the doctor. He prescribed the next course of treatment this time for 14 days. After the treatment we did all the stool samples again. Results are due in today.
As for her daily life. She was already a little over weight but now she seems to have ballooned. She doesn't eat much because she's afraid it's going to hurt her stomach but she is having three regular meals a day. She does drink alot and it seems like she goes to the washroom alot but I'm not there all day to take account of volume. She also doesn't move around much because everytime she's tried to excersize she would have the runs. We live in Quebec, Canada and with the winter (lot's of snow and cold) she doesn't go outdoors much. Someone did suggest that maybe she is retaining water and that will be one of the questions I ask my doctor today, but the weight gain has me very concerned.

You don't need to appolige, I was just trying to get some more details to see if we could help in any way, being a Mother myself I understand how anxious you must be feeling, as we are not medics we cannot give you medical advice or a diagnosis, that is up to your Doctor, what I would suggest is to ask your Doctor for a hospital refferal to a see a specialist , I don't know how the system works in Canada, here, a G.P. (General Practictioner) can refer a patient to a particular specialist at the hospital, as Roy advised in one of your earlier posts.
I hope you have received some answer's from the Doctor today that will ease your worry and help your daughter to recover from this horrendous infection.
Are you aware the US have a C.diff support site,
You are most welcome here, just an idea, they may have more knowledge regarding how the medical system works.
I actually found the US site before I was directed here by Bobbie, to whom I will be forever grateful.
Please let us know how the Doctor's appointment went today.
Keep Strong

The results came in from the 3 samples. All negative. So now she can go back to school next week and we can start on a regime for boosting her immune system to try and avoid another outbreak!
Thank you all for your support, I've registered at the US site since it is closer to home, but I must thank you all for your patience and words of confort.

Nice Notes From Yesterday's OTA
'I thought Curtis Marsh struggled a bit today in 1 on 1′s. I saw him beaten on several occasions.' 'I think Darryl Tapp is the new Asante Samuel. He didn't shut up the entire practice. At least I think it was Tapp that was yelling on every play from the cluster of players on the side. With 90 guys at practice, it's tough to see everyone.'

Love of classics led to second career for retired Dewey partner
Posted May 16, 2013 6:35 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
When Jack Kaufmann retired from law practice in 2002, his firm was known as Dewey Ballantine.
Today Kaufmann is 71 years old and back at work, but his employer is the elite Hewitt School in Manhattan, the New York Times reports. Kaufmann took college classes after his retirement and obtained a master's degree in classics at the City University of New York.
Since then, Kaufmann has worked at three schools, including his present employer Hewitt, where he teaches Latin to eighth and ninth graders.
The Times interviewed Kaufmann along with others who pursued advanced degrees later in life. "Whether such retiree-students find auditing classes too passive, want to play a role in a second chosen field or just want to expand their knowledge," the story says, "officials at graduate schools say it is now routine to count a sprinkling of them pursuing another degree.

Via the Korea Herald.
Via the Korea Herald.
NICE! I'd buy her a $10.00 class of juice. Still cheaper than GI Jane.
These are not the most freshest woman's I seen around in car shows. Japan normally have some of the most cutes and youngest lot. Anyway these women all appear to be early to mid thirty's. Some appear to been under the knife especially the one in the black dress from the Korean herald photos. Scale 1 to 10, I give them a score of 3.75 to 4? rating because they all seem to come from the same cheap lot and modeling agency.
#2: Ang… very catty…
Only SOME, #2?
#2, Doesn't matter whether ladies had cosmetic surgery or not… All models in every country get their body tuned up. That girl looks fine to me. She's at least 7 or 8 on a scLe of 10. Korean babes are definitely hot. I'll take 'em over others anyday.
Sonagi, shut up. You could only dream you could even come close to looking like this girl even if you had a thousand surgery. Don't be so bitter because you're an old hag.
Ah Tom, still making high school dropouts on the Mississippi river look like highly educated men next to you.
Tom, the plural form of surgery is surgeries. You should also use an exclamation mark to show emphasis.
Korea does have some good stock. You ever been around Myongdong shopping area on the weekend. You can actually get in some good eye candy watching women. Man I have seen some of the most cutes middle age women; I am talking about the age between 45 and 60 absolutely drop dead gorgeous ajuma's, lol you could shake a stick at. I find the Korean woman to be much taller than the other east Asians and that make them much more attractive with their strong curvey legs
# 9,
Actually, I rarely see "strong" legs on Korean women. Many have surgery to take muscle out of their legs/calves to assure them of bone disease later in life.
next time you at the car show take your business card and drop it next to the model or leaving it on the car, you just might get a call from her or her friend. because she probably be busy at the after party get to together. haha. Some of those women get their modeling job from flyers tack around different neighborhood, because the promoter's try to cut corners to save money from not hiring professional model from high class modeling agencies.
The one in the red thing standing by the red car has had her nose broken and boobs enlarged.
Hell I am pushing 60 yo so when I see young women like theses here and If I like the way she look, I always say 'I will send her to college' where do I sign for your books, lol!
I'd like to travel right up her unification highway. She could hold my stick shift any time she wanted too.
#10, you've been reading too many horror stories. That's one of the drastic surgeries that made news, so drastic it made news ten years ago. Which all doesn't matter anyway, even gay people don't like you, no wonder you're lonely.
# 16,
Link please? I was referring to this leg/calf surgery advert…
I actually prefer the one on the left with more muscle. It looks like a active Women's leg, instead of a middle school girls leg. Maybe the guys that prefer the skinny ones, are really yearning to be with a school girl?
#17 there is no evidence on either of those pages providing any stats claiming how many women do it. Just that they do it. Datingish claims it's popular and links to feetmanseoul (oh what an incredibly reliable source…of garbage) who gives absolutely zero information beyond a single case of someone getting it done.
The onus would be on you to provide an actual source detailing how many of these surgeries have been performed in Korea.
# 19,
Arirang TV Scolds Healthy Women's Legs, note the guest speaker in the small screen…
Tom mentioned a "horror story" and I've heard of one myself, one Korean person died due to the procedure…
"Introduction : Why parital Gastrocnemius muscle resection ?
Beautiful calves are desirable to both men and women all over the world. Unfortunately many Asian women have short and muscular calves. Thus, the muscle reduction surgery was first developed in Korea.
For many years, the efforts to reduce calves had focused on fat. But result of liposuction was disappointing in most cases because the calf was mainly composed of muscles with little fat.
By reducing the muscle bulk of Gastrocnemius muscles, the calves can be made thinner and longer.
Among various methods which can reduce the muscle bulk in calf, partial resection of Gastrocnemius muscle is the most effective and safest procedure."
She's a 6.
She's a 6. Sonagi is a 10.
Sonagi is an eleven in beauty, truth, and goodness.
These judged by Koreans on the Korean scale which seems to be different the what most non-Korean's find attractive. Everyone on this forum would sleep with any of these women in a heartbeat, some of you would probably start to have heart issues. Their all attractive, they wouldn't be models if they weren't.
For cosmetic enhancements, calf-reduction is NOT common. Whomever said that is flat out lying.
It's a dangerous surgery, requires the removal of the interior calf muscle and has a long recovery period. Due to the size of the muscle involved and the artery's nearby, there is a chance for the patient to die on the table due to blood loss, that is how dangerous this surgery is. Even after recovery the patient won't ever be able to walk the same again.
Even breast surgery is not as common as people claim. It's popular amongst the more affluent women but due to it's cost anyone not rich / monied or from a family with means won't have it. Sometimes you into the girl who's rich ex-boyfriend bought them for her, or who saved up for a few years for the sole purpose of getting the surgery done, but those are the exceptions not the rule.
What's common is the eye surgery due to it's low cost and short recovery time.

What's common is the eye surgery due to it's low cost and short recovery time.
Yeah forgot about the nose think. Not sure about the chin shaving, that's painful and has a longer recovery time.
The jaw shaving is only common for those who have the "my face is too big" complex.
The "my nose is too flat" complex is much more common. It's difficult to find any male or female between 16 and 60 who hasn't had a nose job.

Portion of a 22 oz bottle poured into a Hunahpu's snifter. From notes.
A: Pours a dark brown color. The head is a one finger white shade.
S: Really strong black coffee dominates the nose,
T: Huge black coffee to start (seemingly a bit stale), with an underlying chocolate finish that clashes with the coffee qualities. Despite my reservations about the coffee seeming a bit old, the coffee profile itself is solid - the rest of the brew just can't keep up.
M: Too thin, and too 'rough' on the palate given its relative finishing sweetness. A bit hard to imbibe.
O: Plain and simple, this is a coffee brew searching for a proper stout base to hold it up properly.

Looks the part. Pours a dark black, thick looking liquid. The head is offwhite, a finger thick, but lacks much retention. After a minute you're left with a creamy top.
Pretty basic, roasted malts and coffee, but still good nonetheless.
Taste mimics the nose...all roasted malts and coffee. Very smokey, roasty taste. The coffee lingers well into the swallow.
It's creamy, but a bit thin and watery feeling. A slight sweetness leads me to believe there might be some chocolate in it. Medium bodied despite the dark color. No real hop presence, but some bitterness from the coffee in the finish.
It's a pretty good beer, just not great. A bit too thin for my liking, but has a strong, yet manageable coffee taste.

Thanks to brendan4532 for this one! Looked all over and couldn't find the ABV.
Pours a dark brown with off white head that fades quickly.
The smell is the best part of this brew, it's simply amazing. I pick up a nutty chocolate with light roasted coffee.
The coffee comes through on the taste for sure but it lets the malt shine a bit as well. There is coffee bitterness on the back.
Very easy drinking and drinking great right now. I don't think it would be as all around great with a couple months and once the coffee fades so drink up now!

3.75/5 rDev +9%
A - Pours with just half a finger of medium tan foam on top of an opaque, black body. The head settles fairly quickly but leaves good lace.
S - A nice aroma of espresso with a smoky note as well as a bit of dark chocolate.
T - Sweet malt up front with dark sugar notes of caramel and molasses. Some smoky notes of coffee in the middle with a little bit of dark cherry. Finishes with more caramel and brown sugar as well as a lingering coffee note.
M - Medium-thick body, moderately low carbonation, and a sweet finish.
D - The aroma is excellent with a great coffee note that blends well with the malt. The flavor isn't nearly as well put together, with an emphasis on dark sugar rather than roast character and the coffee is much weaker as well. It isn't unpleasant, but it is a bit of a disappointment when compared to the aroma. As it stands, it is a decent beer but if it was a bit roastier and dryer it could have been great.

A: single finger tan head, little retention on a dark dark brown body.
S: rich coffee aroma but actually little house.
T: strong coffee with a very nice sweet milk chocolate and whipped cream flavor.
M: medium body and moderate carbonation.
Overall: highly drinkable as coffee stouts go. Very sweet to off set the bitterness. One of their better beers.

The manufacturer of a protective device blamed in the power outage that interrupted the Super Bowl said a low "trip setting" on the equipment caused the partial blackout in the Superdome.
Friday's statement from S&C Electric Co. of Chicago said the outage would have been avoided if the operator of the relay device had set the trip threshold higher.
The statement did not name the operator, but the equipment was owned and installed by Entergy New Orleans, the local electric utility company that supplies power to the dome.
Earlier Friday, Entergy said the device was the cause of the power outage.
The power failure at Sunday's big game cut lights to about half of the stadium for 34 minutes, halting play between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers.
The FBI had ruled out cyberterrorism as a cause.
Entergy and SMG had both upgraded lines and equipment in the months leading up to the Super Bowl. Entergy New Orleans CEO Charles Rice said the new switching gear, with the faulty relay, was installed as part of a $4.2 million upgrade by Entergy, including the installation of a new power line dedicated solely to the stadium.
In a separate project, SMG replaced lines coming into the stadium after managers expressed concerns the Superdome might be vulnerable to a power failure like the one that struck Candlestick Park during a 49ers Monday Night Football game in 2011. That outage was blamed at least partly on a transformer explosion.
But NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell downplayed that possibility after the outage, saying the NFL planned to keep New Orleans in its Super Bowl plans. Mayor Mitch Landrieu said the city intends to bid for the Super Bowl in 2018.

Did I see a truck back up to U of L's basketball complex this morning, with some auxiliary whirlpools to treat the Cardinal wounded?
I sure hope so.
Otherwise, TJ is going to have to share one of those baths with Marra and VT. Talk about your team togetherness.
* * * * *
The always jellin' Steve Lavin called a timeout last night with 9:02 to play. His Johnnies were down 71-45. At that juncture, U of L was 12/18 from the beyond the arc, a glossy 67%. Except that the percentage had dropped since halftime. In the opening half, Louisville nailed 7 of 10 treys. Tsk, tsk.
The Cards hit only 1 of their last 8, finishing the game 13/26. That'll win you a lot of basketball games.
As my friend David repeats ad nauseum, "You always look good when you make your shots."
Louisville looked very good last night (except at the free throw line). It was easily the Cardinals' best performance of the season.
* * * * *
A few more rebounds would have been nice. But this particular morning after is no time to pick nits, given how well U of L played. Besides I've got to hurry up, so I can stand in line at the grocery for some staples.
(Which I mention, since it's mandatory that all card carrying members of the Louisville Punditry Society make at least one mention of grocery store panic on a day when the weather report is calling for more than 1″ of snow. I am now in compliance and have received permission to carry on.)
* * * * *
The other number I love is Louisville's 2/1 assist to turnover ratio. A lot of the miscues came after the game was well in hand.
* * * * *
Question of the Day: How good might George Goode be, had The Rick given him a chance to play before this season?
* * * * *
Chris Smith remains an unassuming steady presence in the lineup.
* * * * *
Observation of the Day: Cardinal fans are going to have a major love affair with Gorgui Dieng. His block on a potential dunk with a minute to play was exquisite.
* * * * *
The Cards are among NCAA team leaders in several critical categories. (These stats do not include last night's game.) U of L ranks #5 in the country with 18.2 assists/ game, #10 with 6.1 blocks/ game, #9 with 9.4 3s/ game and #4 with 10 steals/ game.
* * * * *
Now for some peripheral observations (I thought you'd never ask):
1. My pal Janet was trying to get down to say hey to St. J special assistant Gene Keady before the game. She worked for him when she was at Western and he coached there. I asked if she was close enough to the former Purdue mentor to tell him it's long past time for the greasy, dyed combover to go? I've chatted up Keady. He's a truly nice guy. With a great basketball mind. And the worst hairdo in sports.
2. J-Bone came home. Another stupid timeout interview, but, at least, his voice is listenable.
3. Strength coach Ray Ganong is the fastest chair in college hoops. You ever notice how quickly he sets 'em up for the team at a timeout?
4. It was old school rock & roll night. (Could it be that's why the Cards played so well? I certainly think so.) Kudos to the fans, who by a clear margin chose Jerry Lee Lewis' "Great Balls of Fire" over two pretenders for the timeout danceathon. And they played Isley Brothers' "Shout" during the Milk Chug Shakeout.

Unless there is a compromise between the House and Senate, the United States government is headed for a partial shutdown at midnight Monday.
There was a lot of back and forth over the weekend with no results. Republicans say they'll fund the government and prevent a shutdown only if funding for the health care law is delayed one year. But Democrats are not on board with this plan.
There's a chance Republicans could come back with one final offer Monday, a last ditch effort to keep 800,000 federal employees at work.
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe visited NBC29 Monday morning. He says a government shutdown would be devastating to the Virginia economy and around 150,000 Virginians could be affected.
He says furloughs could happen immediately and there could be delays in benefits for 800,000 Virginia veterans. McAuliffe says the Tea Party is using the potential for a government shutdown as a bargaining chip.
"We need to work together, we need Democrats, Republicans, all of us working together to move our economy forward to create those 21st century jobs, but what's going on in Washington today is a disgrace," said McAuliffe.

Feeling it yet?????????
I have to say...... I am really quite excited. Oh yes... I believe, especially seeing this from Nellie:
On Brandan Wright:
"Out frontline is young and some of the guys are on the bench a lot. Brandan (Wright) is ready to play more. I'm going to play him. I'm only going to bring the guys along that are ready to play in an NBA game. Brandan (Wright) is ready, I've held him back in a few games that he probably should've played but I think it's to the point now that he needs to grow into his position."
That says to me....."Sit ya Ass down Al...you want to whine and complain about a trade....warm the pine!"
Timberwolves next and to be fair..they look useful forcing the Spurs to a Double overtime with Parker hitting 55!!!!!!!!!!! We have got to do the business against them on Friday and if so........then and maybe then.....the 25% increase in season ticket pricing might not hurt quite so bad!!!
C'mon Warriors!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love this backpack, a little big for my needs but the extra room could be handy in the future. The sides are padded one of the reason I chose this pack. It would have been nice if the padding goes all the way to the bottom for added support.
Will this pack qualify as a carry-on?

It will be pushing the limits of carry-on status when packed to the brim but should still qualify based on its dimensions.
Member since
The limits for carry on are 22 x 14 x 9, this measures 25 x 14 x 11 . The Porter 46 was designed as a carry-on

Folds down small, has a great strap system, and even the fastex clips are covered so the airlines don't destroy them

Checking and 10-Month CD Promo at NuVision FCU in SoCal - Local Only
NuVision Federal Credit Union is listing a special 10% APY 10-month CD. As you might expect, there's a low maximum deposit ($1,000). Also, it's limited to one per household. Minimum is also $1,000. It's a grand opening special which is only available at certain branches (Downtown Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, La Verne, Monterey Park and Rosemead locations). You must print out and present the coupon at the branch. Offer expires 6/25/2010. Here's the link to the promotion.
The $1K max hurts this 10% 10-month CD, but it's an easy $70 over what you would get on $1K for 10 months in a 1.50% savings account.
$150 Checking Account Promotion
NuVision FCU has again extended the $150 checking account promotion. The offer is now scheduled to last until 6/30/2010. To receive the full $150 requires the following:
- $50 bonus for opening the free checking account with a minimum deposit of $100. Also required is either direct deposit of $200/month OR 5 signature debit card purchases per month for the first 90 days.
- $50 bonus for keeping the checking account active for 90 days (at least 3 transactions per month)
- $50 bonus for using online bill pay (at least 3 in first 90 days)
Please refer to the promotion page (pdf) for the full details. According to the small print in the promo page, you must visit a branch to redeem rewards. You may have to visit the branch at least twice. A reader mentioned the following in a previous post:
You need to come in TWICE to get the bonus. First to open the account and sign a paper for the promotion. Then, after 3 months, you have to go in again and see a banker so they can review your account and give you the remaining $100. They won't do it over the phone.
The credit union still offers a refer-a-friend program which rewards a member $50 for each referral.
NuVision FCU Membership
Field of membership includes members of the American Consumer Council. Anyone can join this organization with a $6 membership fee. In the online credit union application, it allows you to select this council for eligibility, and it states: "If you are interested in joining the Council and the credit union, click this option and continue applying for membership." See the site for other ways to be eligible to join the credit union without joining this council. You can be eligible via select employer groups and via immediate family.
Branch Locations
Branches are located in the California cities of Huntington Beach, Laguna Hills, Lakewood and Seal Beach. There's also a branch in Mesa, Arizona, but it's only accessible to Boeing employees.
The credit union is federally insured by the NCUA (Charter # 566).
NuVision FCU News
It was recently announced that NuVision FCU and Kinecta FCU will be merging. Here's an excerpt from The Orange County Register
NuVision Federal Credit Union in Huntington Beach would merge with Kinecta Federal Credit Union in Manhattan Beach. If the merger is completed, the combined credit union would have assets of $4.7 billion and 40 branches through Orange and Los Angeles counties. The resulting credit union would be named Kinecta and NuVision CEO Roger Ballard would head the combined company.

I have to say that I am very spoilt, there is not a day that goes by when I dont get alots of lovely emails from many of you. I dont manage to answer them all but I really do love getting them and try to answer as many as I can. Just occasionaly I get also get a special package in the mail....today I thought I would like to show you a few of the lovely things I have beensent this year.
This lovely fabric cover hides a spiral folder, the design on the front is from a pattern in my book 'Its Quilting Cats and Dogs'. The spiral folder itself is filled with plastic wallets where you can store paper patterns. I love the idea of keeping your patterns together in a safe place, so why not make a folder for each of your favourite designers patterns and then you will be able to find them easily :)
When I was recently in Melbourne I admired one of the students gorgoeus beaded scissor fobs and the sweet lady has sent me my very own purple set (I have to say that purple has been my favourite colour since I was about 14, just ask my mum about the colour carpet I had to have in my bedroom.....yes purple!)
This deliciously wrapped parcel arrived this week all the way from America...
Inside is a beautifully stitched LAPC logo (about the size of a mug rug) which includes my best friend Hugo rather than the rescally cat, I love how hugo's tongue has been embroidered hanging out of his mouth....its such a Hugo look!
This beautiful handmade lace bookmark came all the way from the UK, I have tucked it into my grandmothers prayer book as its a good place to keep special things. The prayer book was given to my grandmother in 1927 by my grandfather, it has some very special things inside it besides the prayers...
One of the treasures tucked inside the prayer book is the 1933 newspaper clipping of my dads birth announcement. There is a lock of hair from his first haircut and the sweetest drawing that he did on the front of a homemade card for is mums (my grans) birthday.
Grans prayer book is filled with many speciall memories like this and I am lucky to be the guardian of this book.

Bradford bid for second success
8:00am Thursday 15th May 2014 in Sport By John Preston
Bradford take on Halifax in their second game of the Yorkshire Veterans Inter-District Bowls League tomorrow, hoping to build on their opening 38-20 win over Wakefield.
The home match is at Peel Park again, with the away leg taking place Sowerby Tennis & Bowling Club.
Home team (at Peel Park) – Graham Oliver (Clayton), Rod Bastow (Eccleshill), Bob Baines (Pudsey Littlemoor), David Bottomley (Crowghyll), Ian Matthews (Eccleshill), Paul Hillam (Eccleshill), Ian Johnson (Clayton), Nino Esposito (Ladyhill); Reserve: Derek Relton (Eccleshill); Away team (at Sowerby Tennis & Bowling Club) – Tony Riley (Clayton), Tony Walton (Crowghyll), Denis Thorpe (Crowghyll), David Hodgson (Crowghyll), Alan Peel (Clayton), Tommy Harney (Clayton), David Burns (Peel), Gerald Bromley (Peel); Reserve: Bill Hutchinson (Crowghyll).
* Clayton pair Andrew Tate and Dave Scott were the winners of the Martin S Lonsdale-sponsored Bradford Pairs Merit after defeating Ladyhill duo Mally Fowler and Scott Bloodworth 21-18 in the final. Full report and scores in next week's T&A.
* The fifth Shipley Classic, sponsored by HH Birch & Son, gets under way tomorrow, with last year's winner, Stuart King, in action. Phil Vayro (Whitkirk) replaces David McGourty in the tie against Pudsey's James Hanson.
* Entries are still being taken for the Yorkshire Crown Green Merit, with local rounds taking place on Friday, May 23. Anyone interested should contact Maurice Carter on 01274-664705.
*It is with regret that Bradford Moor B have had to withdraw from Division Three (President's) of the Wednesday Pairs League. The teams affected are: Peel, Greengates, Shipley Club, West, Shelf, Clayton, Oakenshaw B, Bowling B and Cullingworth B. Their results will be expunged and number three in the fixtures chart will become a bye.
