You mean like Paul Wellstone? (keeping in tune with this thread...)
I know it's not a democracy nor was it ever intended to be one. But thinking some saviour is going to come along and change things radically is ______. It just won't be permitted. Anyone that does come along will just be thoroughly branded as a lunatic and marginalized (e.g. Kucinich).
Wellstone & Kucinich (& Sanders, for that matter) were & are good liberals (in the North American sense, i.e. what Europeans call social democrats), but not radicals, i.e. going to the root of the matter, that the U.S. is a plutocratic empire, not a democracy that just needs the right elected leadership. Of course the media and politicians would try to ignore a progressive (Sanders, for instance, is practically invisible to the U.S. press compared to the other Senate "independant", Vichy Democrat Leiberman). But the system might have more of a problem dealing with a real radical A sufficiently disconsonant message might become a
cause celebre
precisely because the hard right couldn't resist trumpeting this "insanity" to its base. For instance, my local rep Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the resolution authorizing the war against Afghanistan. There were national calls to recall her on all the pundit shows and throughout the media, despite the fact that 58% of her constituents approved of her action. The the establishment called off its attacks when it realized that attempts to unseat Lee were giving her a platform to express her views.
But that was a one-off kind of thing, and really, Lee isn't very radical, though she used to be a Panther. I wonder what would happen if, say, Noam Chomsky were a senator instead, repeatedly and articulately castigating the foundational myths that are the basis for whatever consent the American people give to imperialist adventures.
Certainly the system would try desperately to use constitutional means to silence a radical voice,
a la
the full court press that pushed Cynthia McKinney out of congress. That might work, but even if right-wing Georgia the system had a hard time icing McKinney, and she in fact was reelected in 2004 after being forced out in 2002, and would probably still be in the House today if it weren't for the Capitol Police incident giving the establishment enough ammunition to (barely) edge her out in 2006. If those tactics didn't work probably such an effective radical leader would meet with an "accident," I guess that's what the allusion to Wellstone was about. Certainly that has happened before, and would cause a certain amount of tongue wagging and skepticism, but unless the hit were clumsy it probably wouldn't threaten the status quo. So probably a single "hero in history" couldn't change the terms of debate, it would take several actors across the country. If we had proportional representation it would be a lot easier to generate such a radical movement.
I guess my real point is that the American people are not uniformly reactionary, there are millions of very solid progressives here, and if a radical point of view could get any kind of real hearing a powerful oppositional mass movement is not beyond the pale. Most Americans are very unhappy with the way things are going, they just don't see an alternative being offered.

"The establishment is finding itself having to resort to electoral fraud and death squads to retain neo-liberal footholds..."
And this is something new???
No, not new, Latin America looked like it was heading in a progressive direction in the seventies and and it took two decades of coups and death squads to wipe out a generation of radicals, killing hundreds of thousands of people. But by the early eighties it looked like that had worked, socialists were marginalized everywhere in Latin America, elections became contests between competing lists of neo-liberals. The establishment didn't NEED to resort to electoral fraud and violence most places. In the last few years, though, there has been a huge resurgence of the left in countries like Bolivia, Venezuela, Uruguay, Brazil, etc. OK, you don't need to convince me that Lula, Kirchner & Bachelet are not real alternatives, but they are actually to the right of their population, holding back a lot of popular anger at capitalism.
10-15 years ago the ruling class looked unassailable, their talking heads were going on about the "end of history": now the situation seems much more fluid, in part because of Bush & company's overreach. Nothing inevitable, but the pendulum seems to be swinging our way after 30 years of rightward momentum.
By the way, for a look at the mechanics behind the collapse of WTC7 (which I'll grant, looks strange), see here:

Uh, you know the Vice President was CEO of Halliburton for years ya? You must. That's pretty hand-in-hand to me. I also don't see this terrible miscalculation everyone seems to hype on. So the Republicans lost some seats? After control for years? Well, that's pretty inevitable. And the price they are paying is essentially nothing. So they got us stuck in an interminable war? Who does that hurt? Not them, they're suffering all the way to the bank. Think the people who made billions off the Vietnam war give a fuck that it was "lost" in the end?
Also, as a side note, I'm not arguing that the republicans, bush, halliburton, or whatever blew up the towers or anything like that. Just so you're clear on that part from me...

POPULAR MECHANICS!!! MY GOD PEOPLE!! Who am I to argue with the Hearst Corportation tho. With such fine publications as Cosmo, Cosmo-girl, Seventeen, and good housekeeping, of course this is a respectable magazine with no ill intent towards the minds of it readers. God, some people are so stuborn (me for example) this is THEIR explanation
Go to page 4 "FACT: Jet fuel burns at 800? to 1500?F, not hot enough to melt steel (2750?F). However, experts agree that for the towers to collapse, their steel frames didn't need to melt, "
Then go to this documentary timemark 15:15
Thats right MOLTEN STEEL, 5 WEEKS LATER STILL MOLTEN, STILL RED HOT
back to popular mechanics...same page, "NIST reports that pockets of fire hit 1832?F."
...and what temperature does steel melt at?? 2500 ...well that dosnt make much sense,
Dosnt it seem odd that all 3 buildings collapsed straight down, nice and neat?
PANCAKE COLLAPSE, thats the official explanation, of course with the resistance of each floor breaking and the air pockets between them the building should have collapsed much slower than freefall speed right?
JUDY WOOD PhD Professor of Mechanical Engineering Clemson University:
TIME MARK: 27:10 ........THIS IS A GOOD ONE.... The towers collapsed within a second of freefall speed...9 seconds, She calcualtes the speed of a pancake collapse of 110 stories....remember shes Ph.D. ... of MECHANICAL ENGINEERING....at Clemson University....she says it should have taken...u ready?? 96 seconds! NINETY SIX SECONDS.
One more beautiful shot..
TIME MARK 49:38...see the way the beams are CUT, see the molten steel hardened around the cut? thats how the experts do it, you cut the beams on an angle so you can make the building fall in the direction of the cut... popular mechanics pft... thats kid stuff

Yes, well that's called an ad hominem argument. But before I get into an involved discussion with you on this I think you should address the point that jebba made earlier. Are you indeed a troll? Specifically, are you a blag user who happens to be interested in the 9/11 disaster. If so I'll continue this dialog with you. If, however, you are a troll who is only interested in stirring up shit, I won't bother.

skip to 20:51 to hear him try to convince you. You may also want to look at the first 3mins of this video, or watch the whole thing it wont hurt anything but your ego.
Wow, what a great engineer. Let's take the point of melting point of steel, he claims that steel retains it's strength up to it's melting point. Wow, this must be quite a shock for all those companies trying to develope heat resistant steel that retains it's strength under heat. The truth is many types of steel hold up under heat better than others. But he talks like all steel is the same. The other truth is the loss of strength due to heat is something that happens gradually starting at lower tempatures, not all at once at the end.
Overall I think this video is full of error.

I phrased that badly. I didn't mean to imply that they weren't in bed with Halliburton. I just meant that it wasn't Halliburton and Bush using the Republican party as patsies. I think the war was a miscalculation because they actually thought that it would be a quick war and that they would be treated as heroes. That the United States would have a permanent presence in the country and that the oil companies would have a permanent slice of the Iraqi oil pie. I think all that is up in smoke. No matter how long the U.S. stays there the inevitable result will be like VietNam. The difference between VietNam and Iraq is the VietNam had no oil.
Secondly they also thought this would be the icing on the cake for a permanent Republican domination of the country's politics. When political parties make deals with large corporations the benefits are supposed to go both ways. Congressmen make those deals ultimately so that they can get enough money to beat the competition in the next election. If they think that the policies the corporations are asking them to back will lose them the next election, then the deal doesn't hold. From that point of view, things haven't gone as planned. And while the oil companies have made a bundle the financial markets have gone down the toilet. They didn't start the war just for the sake of starting a war. They actually had a goal in my and they failed.

Do you really think that? If so, reconsider. I think you even noted how Bush Sr. and his crew knew they wouldn't be greeted as liberators. Cheney likely knew this as well, despite his public proclamations. Hell, Cheney was one of Sr.'s crew (cf. Brent Scowcroft Time article). Cheney was Sr.'s Secretary of Defense! This when they knew there would be no way they'd be greeted as liberators.
If I run a fire brigade, torch your house, run in and take as much as I can for myself while it's burning, and then let it burn to the ground have I failed? I've failed if my goal was to save your house. If my goal was to enrich myself, I've succeeded... And if the fire truck gets destroyed in the process and I happen to own a fire truck factory, well, awww shucks, I guess we'll need a few dozen more of those as well...

Well, you don't have to read his mind, just look at his actions.
1) Secretary of Defense under Bush Sr., they decide not to go into Baghdad because it would be a mess.
2) After Bush Sr. is out of office, becomes CEO of a military contractor (and had pushed for basically privatizing large aspects of the military when in office). Builds the company up to provide huge amounts of services to the Govt.
3) Becomes Vice President and starts war as soon as convenient, with huge sums of money going to #2.

When I said dark, I meant evil, not obscure. But what are you saying exactly? Evidently the time wasn't right in 1991 to topple Saddam. So Cheney invested in Halliburton, became Vice President and started the war... all by himself? Why didn't the Republicans and large corporations want to invade Iraq in 1991 but didn't mind doing it in 2003? We have Cheney's motivation, but what about everybody else?

I think it's very clear that Bush and the people who tell him what to think all believed that they could pull the Iraq war off without too much trouble at all. None of them thought that this particular war would go so badly. Read what they wrote and said beforehand. They were full of visions of unassailable US military supremacy, as well as all sorts of racist fantasies about the backward Arabs/Muslims, who were posited as on the one hand incapable of ruling themselves and on the other dying to get some o' that good ole American Democracy (i.e., to establish a pro-US government). This was not just lip service--these fantasies about Arab inferiority and their own superiority are long-standing, widespread, and deeply believed myths in the United States (and dare I say in "the West" in general). This fantasy is particularly strong among right-wingers, and even stronger among the neo-cons, who have been great supporters of racist Orientalist ideologues like Bernard Lewis and the loathesome Daniel Pipes.
Bush and Co. (including Cheney) certainly cared about winning, and they really really wanted to win. Bush Sr. and his group didn't think that they could take Iraq in 1991, but Junior had a different group of "advisers" telling him what to do. The fact that Cheney for a time worked with Scowcroft doesn't mean that they share the same assumptions or assessments about anything--they obviously don't--Scowcroft has already publicly rebuked them. The gang around Junior, with Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz at the lead (and with Cheney strongly behind), thought Bush Sr. and Scowcroft were pussies--either cowards or not bold enough to take advantage of the conditions to maintain and extend US dominance. It's as simple as that. Read their writings. Read the writings of the insiders published in the last few years. Saddam was a tinpot dictator, and WE are AMERICA! We can annihilate Saddam, and turn Iraq into a protectorate brimming with permanent US military bases, and keep political and economic control over Iraq's oil and the whole region. And it wasn't just Bush and Co. who thought this--they managed, through their audacity and the media/pundits cravenness, to convince the whole US mainstream that it was going to be a piece of cake, and Iraq would prostrate itself and love it's conqueror just like Japan.
But saying that they thought they could win this war quickly doesn't mean that they were not hand in glove with the "defense" contractors, Haliburton, etc. They were prepared for war for the long haul--after Iraq, they wanted to "remake" through war or threats of war the whole Middle East and beyond. This was going to be a permanent war bonanza for the contractors. Winning in Iraq wouldn't have stopped the flow of money--they wanted it to flow at greater rates--making bases, preparing for and prosecuting other wars in the region, doing everything that they could to make the US global military empire utterly and unquestionably dominant forever (and their wing of the Republican party in power forever). People cared about this, and no one wanted Iraq a mess.
They did not imagine that their plan would falter at the first step--they couldn't even get past the pathetic, defenseless, already crushed nation of Iraq. They knew or understood nothing about the history of the anti-colonial liberation movements, and the utter impossibility of subjugating a nation like Iraq today. No matter how many "terrorists" they kill, how many Fallujas they destroy, Iraqis are going to continue to kill them until the last base is gone.
Although lots of people are still making money off of the current situation, this was not at all how ANY of them hoped it would turn out. The money that they thought they could spend on more offensive operations, like real war with Iran, Syria, etc etc, is now being used to try to shore up the hopeless dream of "stabilizing" Iraq under their rule. Now they're going to lose, and they know it. The Middle east is not being remade as they wanted it. They're holed up in their bases and their "green zone", and they're not even safe in those. They can't even complete construction on all of the bases that they started building. If they had pulled it off as they imagined, the money would have flowed in a torrent for the foreseeable future. Now, sure, the money is not going to get shut off right away or perhaps even soon, but it's likely that there are going to be congressional investigations, inquiries, audits, etc. As ineffective as those congressional measures are likely to be, none of the interested parties wanted that kind of oversight. The Republicans, who are somewhat more fervent lapdogs for military interests than Democrats, are losing power. That matters to them. And they're pretty much universally despised, inside and outside of the US. They didn't particularly want that, either. Money will still flow, but it's not like how it coulda been in their eyes. Permanent war that you're winning is different than permanent war that you're losing. And the key is that the defeat is on the horizon, and it's not looking to permanent anymore. The army and contractors are going to have to leave Iraq before too long, and the bonanza is going to come to an end and they know it.
That said, I think that Ed's argument about "competence" regarding Iraq and 9/11 is wrong, too. The fact that Bush and Co. were not able to succeed in Iraq or Afghanistan doesn't show that they are "incompetent." That's the establishment/Democratic Party line. The Democrats, they say, wouldn't have "screwed things up" like Bush, and maybe the Iraqi people would love us then. Right. In fact, it would have been impossible to "succeed" in this insane plan--failure was inevitable. To have attempted it shows that Bush and his handlers are racist megalomaniacs. But we knew that already.
The 9/11 attack, whoever did it, was an operation of a COMPLETELY different order. For the Bush faction of the government to have done it would have required the cooperation of some finite number of Americans (not all of whom needed then or even now to know "what was really going on"), and slamming four planes into three buildings on a certain morning. Not comparable to the Iraq adventure/ongoing atrocity at all by any stretch of the imagination. And surely Bush and Co. have some degree of "competence"--if they were completely incapable of getting anything done they would never have been able to take and maintain power for so long.
Furthermore, I think that Ed is too credulous about the official 9/11 story. I mean, for chrissakes, we don't even know for sure that there were 19 suicide hijackers flying the planes. The US has had the technology to fly planes by remote--including commercial passenger planes--since the 1980s. This is not science fiction--the US remotely flies its unmanned planes surveillance/bomber planes all of the time. I remember seeing the news about remotely controlling a passenger jet on the news in the 1980s--my memory was confirmed by the same story in the first few minutes of "Loose Change" (regardless of the other inadequacies of that film). The government has only given us indirect "evidence" that Atta et al. were flying the planes, like the fact that they supposedly immediately found Atta's pristine, unscorched passport amidst millions of tons of WTC rubble. I don't know about explosives in the towers, but there are enough fishy things, and the fact that certain people got so much money and power as a result of the attack--and the fact that they said in 1999 that their already existing plan of military expansion and permanent global dominance required such an attack to get started (Wolfowitz's "new pearl harbor" comment from 1999) that I'm deeply suspicious of the official story.

I never said the Democrats would "do better" except in the sense that they probably wouldn't have invaded Iraq. I also don't think that Bush's incompetence was responsible for 9/11. What I said was that Bush is incompetent, and his lack of competence led to a vacuum of power at the top which allowed a group of loose canons, who never would have wielded unfettered power in a more "competent" administration, to take command. When I say "competent" I'm speaking from the point of view of the American corporate interests.

I don't know about explosives in the towers, but there are enough fishy things, and the fact that certain people got so much money and power as a result of the attack--and the fact that they said in 1999 that their already existing plan of military expansion and permanent global dominance required such an attack to get started (Wolfowitz's "new pearl harbor" comment from 1999) that I'm deeply suspicious of the official story.
There's a tendency among conspiracy theorists to look at who benefited from an incident and assume that that is somehow evidence that they planned it. That's a well known logical fallacy that has the annoying characteristic of being impossible to disprove. Because it's impossible to disprove, the burden of proof must be on the person making the claim. You have to come up with some evidence making some kind of link between the government and the event. Otherwise it's no more than rumor mongering.

I think we're 99% on the same page about politics, Ed, so I don't want to make a big deal about this. I didn't mean to imply that you thought that administration incompetence was responsible for 9/11. My point, which might have been mistaken, was that it appeared to me that you were arguing that the neo-cons' failure in Iraq shows them to be "keystone cops" and "bumbling fools", and thus they were not capable of orchestrating 9/11, which would have required the efforts of "omnipotent illuminati." If that's not what you meant, then I apologize.
No one says that the fact that Bush and Co. benefited from 9/11 represents "evidence that they planned it." But when investigating a crime, is it a "logical fallacy" to ask who has benefited from the crime? Particularly if, a year or two before the crime happened, someone said, "We won't be able to carry out our plans unless a crime such as this occurs," and then the crime occurs, and then they carry out their plans. I (and I think most professional investigators and judges would agree) that it would be illogical to ignore such events, and that you should keep it in mind when investigating, regardless of what you can prove right away. I never said it proved or represented "evidence" of anything--all I said was that this, along with numerous other details, makes me deeply suspicious of the official story.
Futher, I took issue with your statement that government orchestration of 9/11 would have involved getting 19 muslim extremists to sacrifice their lives. I said that that wasn't technically necessary, and that at least one of the bits of "evidence" purporting to show Atta's involvement is so unlikely that it deserves to be treated with great skepticism. Praxis points out that "evidence" linking Osama bin Laden and especially Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is also very shaky. If you're going to amass your arsenal of logic and skepticism against the conspiracy theorists (and you are right to do so), then why not why not assess the government's claims with the same standards? Is the US government any more worthy of trust?

Our setup for 10-man looked like this:
Paladin MT
Warrior OT
Healer: paladin, shaman, disc priest. Paladin on MT, shaman on MT+raid, priest on OT(+raid).
DPS: DK, 2 rogues, warlock, ele shaman
The paladin MT helps the healers in phase 1 a lot by dispelling the magic dot himself, so they can focus on other things and using JoL to smoothen out the aoe from Steelbreaker. The disc priest tosses a PoM in the melee dps from time to time, otherwise he can focus on the OT, who can take considerable damage spikes. Alternatively priest and paladin could have swapped assignements.
In phase 1 we waited for a convenient Rune of Power, then blew heroism with the dps standing in it.
Timings: Steelbreaker dead after 2min20s, Runemaster after 5min, Stormcaller after 9min.
For those interested, our paladin MT frapsed the kill:

I have been looking for a Prot warrior BiS list for T11 content and have not found any. Could anybody post one? or direct me to one?

Failure is not an option. It comes bundled with the software.
I am looking for raid level gear, 359 ilvl BiS gear.
Might want to take a look at RAWR then. They have a pretty extensive list and you could easily come up with your own BiS list off that, based on what you place your more important values in.
Rogues do it from behind, but Druids do it on all fours.
The Family Business - [A] Burning Blade
Professions: JC/BS for the maximum versatility, or going with Alchemy for another +mastery trinket.
Reforging: every hit, expertise or parry -> dodge
Just pick the pieces the maximum of avoidance/mastery on it -> Chardev.profil. You can argue about the 4 piece bonus, but neither legs/shoulder/helmet have any mastery on it so it's up to you.
77.3% unhittable so for warriors will be damn near unhittable with shield block up (could replace 1 mastery/stam gem with parry/mastery to get last .01%). 4 piece just because it would come in handy for a general purpose set. trinkets can change based on what fight with tol barad trinket replacing vial for heavy magic fights.
this is what i'm aiming for anyways for a base set, switching legs/helm/shield out as needed for more threat/hit cap if i have to interrupt.

in my current setup i'm already at 5% miss, 9.27% dodge, 12.38% parry, and 52.1% block, so i'm 78.75% unhittable, with shield block i'm already carrying over into crit block, so i'm really happy with my progress. I've dipped a little in HP by making some gem changes, but it hasn't seemed to be noticed by the healers yet, and has really smoothed my damage intake, especially when i keep shield block on cd, i'm basically unhittable 1/3 of the time, and only 23% hittable the other 2/3 of the time

1 tbsp of paprika
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of oregano
1 tsp of garlic powder
1/2 tsp of chili powder
1/2 cup of water
1 tsp of sugar
salt and pepper to taste
1) Defrost the empanadas wrappers
2) Heat up oil and saute the onions and garlic until soft.
3) Add in ground beef and cook till is slightly brown
4) Add in all the rest of the spices and seasoning and cook until the meat is done
5) Add in olives and raisins and mix well and set aside to cool
6) Put about 1 1/2 tablespoon of meat at the middle of the wrapper and a slice of hard boil egg
7) Fold and close the edges with a fork or pleat the edges like curry puff
8) Brush the top of the empanadas with beaten egg and bake in a 400 degree F oven until golden brown.

As its first topic under the new Gas Utility Operations Best Practices program, AGA is pleased to conduct a roundtable meeting on Quality Management in Gas Operations.
PHMSA and some state regulators have expressed increasing interest in developing a regulation focused on quality for all aspects of natural gas operations, which would have an impact in enhancing pipeline safety performance. AGA member companies have adopted some practices within various aspects of gas operations which address workmanship issues, particularly the oversight of employees and contractors. Participants will hear how some companies have approached Quality Management in areas such as leak survey, locating and marking, construction, materials supply chain, and leak management. Facilitated groups discussions will enable participants to exchange company practices that are designed to integrate quality into the safe and reliable delivery of natural gas.
To register for this meeting, pleas use the "Registration Information" link in the left column of this page. If you are having problems registering online, please contact Vanessa George, phone: (202) 824-7333.
If you have questions about the Quality Management Best Practices Roundtable, please contact Nneka Assing, phone: (202) 824-7332.

Additional Fees & Credit Holds:
- To extend a rental from your originally scheduled return time, you must contact a Budget reservation agent at 800-824-6287. A service fee of $10 will apply and your original per-day rental rate may change. If within 7 hours of your originally scheduled return time you don't call to extend your rental, a $10/day late fee will apply.
- Your total rental rate is calculated based on the information provided at time of reservation. Optional coverages, special equipment (GPS, child safety seats, etc.), surcharges and other fees are subject to tax in certain locations. This tax is not reflected in your reservation total.
- Vehicles are rented on a daily (24-hour) basis. There is a 29-minute grace period for returns. After 30 minutes late, a 3/4-day late charge + $.01 + taxes apply. After 90 minutes late, full-day late charges + taxes apply. There is no grace period for rental fees, surcharges and optional equipment or protections charges, so full-day late charges will apply for these items.
- If your plans change and you no longer require the rental, you must cancel this reservation before the scheduled pick up time or you will be charged a $75 US fee ($50 US for a pre-paid rental).
- The U.S. Government imposes a $5/day Admin Rate Supplement (GARS/GA) for U.S. Government rentals.
- If you selected Fuel Service Option, fuel price isn't included in your reservation total, but prevailing market rate will be added when you return your car.
- Total Estimated Charge Hold Rules:
- At the time of rental, we'll require a credit card hold of total estimated charges or $200, whichever is greater. A prepaid charge card is not accepted for this required hold.
- Total Estimated Debit Card Hold Rules:
- We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to request a debit card authorization hold in excess of the estimated rental charges. Generally, we require a debit card authorization hold of estimated rental charges plus $200 — unless you already paid toward your rental on budget.com, in which case the hold will be only $100. While this hold is in place, the funds will not be available for your use.
- We accept bank debit cards only with the MasterCard or Visa logo at the time of rental and if you are at least 25 years of age. You will be subject to a credit check to determine creditworthiness.
- Upon returning the vehicle, we will process a release of the unused portion of the debit hold subject to your bank's procedures. The hold may take up to 2 weeks to be released by your bank.
- If you fail to return the vehicle as agreed, we will obtain additional debit hold authorizations from your account to cover the rental charges.
- Budget is not responsible for any returned checks or over-drafts due to our debit hold policy.
- When using a debit card for the required hold, positive identification in addition to your driver's license may be required.
- Prepaid cards are not acceptable methods of credit identification upon rental pick up. One of the above mentioned cards must be presented.
- Debit, cash, check cards and prepaid cards can be used for payment of rental charges upon car return.
- At time of pick-up, you may not use a debit card for the required hold if you are renting a Street Fleet car (all class X vehicles).
- Your quoted rental rate is based on the exact parameters (location, dates, etc.) of your particular rental — so changing your confirmed reservation parameters could result in a different rate.
- If you used a coupon for your reservation
- savings are not reflected in your quoted rate. If your rental meets all coupon terms, rate adjustment will be made when you pick up your car.
- for an upgrade, your reserved car will be upgraded at time of rental subject to car availability.
- it may not be used in conjunction with any other coupon, promotion or deal.
- An automatic USD $13.99 refueling service charge will be applied to all rentals under 75 miles. Renters who return the car with a full tank of gas and provide a receipt showing the purchase of gasoline will have the charge reversed when completing their rental.
- All additional drivers must be at least 25 years of age. The fee for each additional driver is $13/day with a maximum charge of $65/rental. The following are exempt from the fee but must meet all other driver requirements: the renter's employer or fellow employee when on company business and renting under a corporate account; the renter's spouse or domestic partner; the companion driver of a renter with a disability who has completed the non-licensed renter form; for insurance replacement rentals, company employees or family members who are designated on the insurance policy.
- Renters must be at least 21 years of age and a $27/day fee applies for those under 25. Because we don't verify your age when you make a reservation, this fee is in addition to your quoted online rate. In addition, those under the age of 25 may neither use a debit card for the required hold nor drive a luxury car, full-size SUV, premium SUV, full-size van, mini van, special car or pick-up truck.

Part 5: Largamente maestoso
Track 5 on CDS44281/6 CD1 [2'59] 6CDs Boxed set (at a special price)
Like most of Bantock's Celtic works the symphony makes use of Hebridean folksong—as collected by Marjory Kennedy-Fraser and published between 1909 and 1924. In this instance the song is 'Sea-Longing' (An Ionndrainn-Mhara), and its opening lines, 'Sore sea-longing in my heart / Blue deep Barra waves are calling', give a sufficient clue to the unstated programme that informs the work. Though it is presented as one continuous movement, the various sections correspond to the contrasts that are found in the normal symphony. A spacious slow introduction (Lento sostenuto), in which the lower strings whisper a brief, chant-like theme, leads to a vigorous section (Allegro con fuoco) in which a bold unison theme is offset by a theme of swooning, lyrical intensity. The slow introduction returns as herald to the equivalent of a symphony's slow movement (Andante con tenerezza) built upon the yearning Hebridean folksong. This in turn gives way to a vigorous, scherzo-like section (Allegro con spirito) which explores, with Bartókian savagery, the energetic rhythms of a Highland reel before exploding into the final section (Largamente maestoso), a full-blooded and magnificent apotheosis of the chant-like theme from the slow introduction.
The work was dedicated to the conductor Clarence Raybould (one of Bantock's earliest pupils) and seems to have received its first performance in a BBC broadcast in 1942.

Latest update : 2012-01-23
Italy unveils secret weapon against tax fraud
In 1970's New York, "Serpico" was the cop who fought against police corruption. Today in Italy, it's the name of a computer system tackling tax evasion. With the country on the brink of recession, Rome misses out on over 100 billion euros a year in unpaid taxes. Yet for some Italians the system is less like a crime-busting policeman than Orwell's "Big Brother"; a dangerous intrusion into their privacy.

In a historic collaboration, Fender introduces its first artist signature amplifiers-EC Series amps bearing the name of legendary guitarist Eric Clapton.
Built to the exacting specifications of Clapton himself, the EC Twinolux is a fascinating variation on the tweed '57 Twin amp and our answer to his call for a special model with several distinctive features. Handmade in the United States with '50s-era output tube bias tremolo (which produced a more throbbing pulse than later Fender tremolo circuits) and a switchable power attenuator (reduces speaker output and can disable one speaker for even lower output), it presents the pinnacle of personally inspired amp tone for stage and studio alike and is a must for Clapton fans and guitarists who want the ultimate in tube performance.
Features include hand-wired all-tube circuitry on eyelet board with premium components; circuit based on late-'50s Fender Twin amp model 5E8-A (about 40 watts); single channel with high-gain and low-gain inputs; tremolo with speed and intensity controls (can be selected with included footswitch); dual Special Design 12" Weber® speakers (by Eminence®) with alnico magnets for dynamic, sensitive response; two Groove Tubes® 6L6GE output tubes, four 12AX7 preamp tubes and two 5U4 rectifier tubes; Mercury Magnetics custom transformers; finger-joined solid pine enclosure for warm, resonant tone; lacquered tweed covering with vintage-style brown/gold grille cloth and leather strap handle. Deluxe fitted cover included.

* He lashed out with his foot and gave him a dead leg.
โดย Josifer 15 มีนาคม 2012
A painful swelling, normally in the thigh, caused by a punch or quick blow. Bruising and discoloration tend to follow dead legs and leave the victim with a numb leg that is hard to walk on. Normally occurs between guys but rare instances of girls giving guys dead legs have been discovered. Also known as a Charlie Horse.
Claire: Hey I don't know what a dead leg is.
Will: Hey you're right.
Will: Hey you're right.

where you punch someone (not kick cause only punching works otherwise its not called deadlegging) in the area between the ankle and calf on the lower leg, causing the person to collapse or yell in tremense pain.
Oh shit Libby just deadlegged jonnie and now he is crying like a baby on the floor!

Nickname of a usless brother-in-law who is totally gormless. Enjoys fishing (the sod with a rod!) and lying about how fast he drove his car on certain roads.
Dead Legs: Can I use your car to put my fishing gear in it?
Me: NO.
Me: NO.

Victoria Beckham presented her Autumn Winter 2013 during New York Fashion Week and what a show it was! Ever considerate, the designer treated us to sneak peeks of her preparations prior to the catwalk extravanganza, sharing snaps with her Twitter followers. We saw a bevvy of builders working through the night in order to get New York City Library spick and span in time for today's show and VB herself choosing the most suitable flooring for her army of catwalkers.
At the show itself, we were greeted by a line-up of black T-shirt-clad hunks offering the attendees tea, of the English breakfast variety, of course. Backstage, the Babyliss team were busy giving the models a tousled hair look consisting of a low-slung ponytail. And on the FROW? Yep, there's Mr Beckham himself. David cosied up to Anna Wintour for another season and was spotted chatting animatedly with the US editrix.
As for the collection itself, it was as polished as expected. One super-chic coat featured plaids and strong cobalt accents and we beamed to see tuxedo-style dresses in Grazia yellow. As for this season's footwear, Lady Becks gave us patent booties by Manolo Blahnik. We'll be bringing you the full report shortly.
