No 1: Les morts: Oraison Beati mortui qui in Domino moriuntur
No 2: La notte
No 3: Le triomphe funèbre du Tasse
Les morts was prompted by the death of Liszt's only son Daniel at the age of twenty, and is constructed about an orison by the Abbé Felicité de Lamennais (1782–1854): the end of each stanza of both poem and music has the refrain 'Blessed are the dead who die in the grace of Lord', and towards the end the psalm 'De Profundis', the 'Te Deum' and the 'Sanctus' are quoted. By following the structure of the poem, Liszt evolves a highly original musical form. The sung text presents the Latin version of these famous lines; Lammenais' poem is written out throughout the score above the first violin line, possibly with view to recitation, but more likely with a view to assisting the conductor to achieve the appropriate expression. The rhythm of the words is clearly reflected by that of the music.
The dead
They have also passed over this earth; they have gone down the river of Time; their voices were heard on its banks, and then nothing more was heard. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
Whilst they were passing, a thousand vain shadows presented themselves to their sight; the world that Christ has cursed showed to them its grandeur, riches, voluptuousness; they saw it, and suddenly they only saw Eternity. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
Like a light from ahigh a cross in the distance appeared to guide their course; but all did not behold it. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
There were those that said: What is that stream that carries us away? Is there anything after this rapid voyage? We do not know, nobody knows. And as they said that, the laughing vanished. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
There were also those who seemed to hearken, in a profound meditation, to an inward word; and then, with eye fixed on the setting sun, they sang all at once of an invisible dawn and of a day that never ends. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
Swept away pell-mell, young and old, all disappeared like to the vessel chased by the storm.
One could sooner count the sands of the sea than the number of those that hastened to pass. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
Those that saw them have said that there was a great sadness in their hearts: anguish upheaved their chest, as if tired of the work of living, lifting their eyes to Heaven, they wept. Where are they? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
From the unknown places where the river loses itself two voices arise unceasingly: The one says: From the bottom of the abyss I have cried to Thee, Lord; Lord, listen to my wailing, lend ear to my prayer. If Thou searchest our iniquity, who will look well in Thy sight? But near Thee is mercy and unbounded redemption.
And the other: We praise Thee, O God! we bless Thee: holy, holy, holy is the Lord God of Armies! The earth and the heavens are filled with Thy glory.
And we also, we shall go whence those wailings or those songs of triumph come. Where shall we be? Who will tell us? Happy the dead that die in the Lord!
Felicité de Lamennais (1782–1854) (English translation by J Köttgen)
La notte was composed upon the death after childbirth of Liszt's elder daughter Blandine, but its roots lie much earlier: in the second book of the Années de pèlerinage there is a piece, Il penseroso, inspired by a statue of Michelangelo's of the same name, sculpted for the tomb of Lorenzo de Medici in the church of San Lorenzo in Florence. La notte develops this earlier work by composing a variation on it and inserting a very beautiful central episode whose opening phrase is overlaid with the words from Virgil's Aeneid: 'And dying he remembers fair Argos'—clearly motivated by Liszt's own feeling that he would die far from his native Hungary, and the musical point is made by the wistful reminiscence of the Hungarian cadence so familiar to us from his Rhapsodies. The title was inspired by the poetic quatrain by Michelangelo which appears on his statue, and at the head of both Liszt works:
Grato m'è il sonno, e più l'esser di sasso.
Mentre che il danno e la vergogna dura.
Non veder, non sentir m'è gran ventura
Però non mi destar, deh'—parla basso!
I am happy for sleep, and more for being of stone.
For so long as injury and shame endure,
Not to see, not to hear are for me a great adventure.
Nevertheless, do not disturb me, eh!—speak low.
Le triomphe funèbre du Tasse is prefaced by a long quotation from Pierantonio Serassi's account of Tasso's funeral, at which all of those who had sought to vilify and persecute the poet during his lifetime turned up in their finery to lament his passing. Liszt certainly believed that his time too would not come until after his own death, and this piece can be seen as a self-portrait as much as it can a work honouring Tasso—the subject of an earlier symphonic poem first written as an overture to Goethe's play Torquato Tasso. Although the Ode uses two themes from the symphonic poem it stands as a completely independent work, and like the other Odes is characterized by dignity and restraint, as well as extremely forward-looking chromaticism.

"I've used Tiny Prints the past 2 years and have gotten rave reviews on my Christmas cards each time. There is more individuality offered to make your card perfectly suited for you."
"The card turned out even better than expected. I used the sunshine filter on the photo (I used a color photo of my kids in front of the Christmas tree) and the yellow tint to the photo really went well with the gold in the damask pattern. Quality was outstanding and I am very pleased with my purchase. It was nice that tinyprints offers modified rectangular envelopes for their square cards. It was nice to not pay extra for postage. I often avoid square designs for this reason."
"I selected this card for a family group of 38 gathered for my mother's 90th birthday. I could not have been more pleased with the finished product. The Hallelujah across the bottom conveyed perfectly the sentiment I wished to express with all of our family together. The card truly showcased the family group, and I loved being able to type in a brief message on the back. My mother sent these cards with great pride! I had never used Tiny Prints before, but will be coming back!"
"My photo for our family holiday card was taken with my phone. The customer service representative called to make sure I wanted to go ahead with my order since the photo was not completely clear. I really appreciated the excellent customer service."
"Found just the right layout to match my picture. The colors were crisp and bright and the picture filled out the whole card without a border. I wish my layout had a matching address label but they arrived on time so I have no complaints."

In either case, they're dangerous, and that's why this Bear Shock® electric bear fence delivers 6000 volts to any bear that touches it. Far better than stringing up tin cans or clanging pots and pans together to scare bears away, this Bear Shock means business, and bears figure that out the instant they get zapped.

It also works well as a horse corral or protection for a small plane or other vehicle.

Well, I have a dyson animal, which is great - just big, bulky and heavy. I have two english bulldogs that shed everywhere - even with the furminator (love that too) - anyway we live in a 4 story townhouse with mostly wood floors - so carrying the dyson up and down the stairs to clean the stairs was a pain. The shark is fantastic for this. It really picks up dirt and dog hair. I love the lift away part with the stairs - it's perfect the cord is longer on the shark so you can get up a whole flight of stairs without re plugging in at the higher floor. I am glad I purchased the refurbished, because I wasn't sure and it was less expensive than a "new" - but new in every way, I wouldn't have been able to tell it wasn't brand new. The only issue at all is that if the floor is a little damp from anything (they drool also) - the vacuum won't pick up - so just make sure your floors are dry and it's good to go.. So Overall just a great vacuum for the price.
I love this vacuum, It does a great job of cleaning bare floors and carpets. The swivel head is great and the vacuum is the perfect size to fit in the pesky corners. I couldn't believe how much dirt was on my floor after using this vacuum. I love the canister and the washable filter. Worth every penny.
Mama said not to buy one because I'd be grossed out at the amount of dirt and dust it picks up. I'm a good homemaker, so I wasn't worried. Challenge accepted. Mama was right! We live in a 1600 sq. ft. condo and one pass through the house dumped about an inch of "yuck" in the canister! But...it was a snap to dump with the push of a button into the trash. Weeks later, it is still picking up a ridiculous amount of dirt that my Roomba has been leaving behind for the past year. The carpet also feels softer as I'm vacuuming, and that's a nice bonus. I know there are a lot of Dyson lovers out there (no disrespect to them), but this thing is a powerhouse (yet lightweight!) with a price that can't be beat! You might as well just stick it in your cart now!
I was looking for a new vacuum so I shopped around. I thought I would give the Shark vacuum a try and see how good it worked. I was absolutely impressed with the suction of the vacuum and how well it maneuvered. I used my old vacuum in my hallway then passed the Shark vacuum and it picked up more dirt than my original vacuum. I also love that it doesn�t have a belt that makes the brush work. If you get caught up on a rug you simply turn it off then back on and the brush works again.
I bought this Shark vacuum after reading all the reviews. I have a multi-cat household, already own a Dyson Animal and a Bissell, which both work ok. The main and most important reason I looked at this vacuum was its weight. The other vacuums are heavy and hard to maneuver, and my back hurt after pushing them around for only a few minutes. The Shark, on the other hand, is lightweight, has the suction of the Dyson, et al, is small enough to get into tight spaces and around furniture, and the dust bin empties like a dream! I found myself having to pull the compacted cat hair and other gross stuff out of the Dyson and Bissell, then getting dust and dirt all over me and the floor. I have mainly hardwood floors, and they are easy to clean with this Shark. AND, it REALLY DOES pick up CAT LITTER!!! The other vacuums just blow it away or bounce it around. This is a lifesaver for me with all the cats scattering litter everywhere. I haven't used all the attachments yet, but the ones I've used are easy on and off and work great. The cord on this vacuum is certainly long enough to reach 2 or 3 rooms, but I find, like others, it topples rather easily when using an attachment--but so did the other vacuums. Finally, for the performance of this vacuum, you simply cannot beat the price, so I think the value here is great. I would definitely recommend it and will buy another one when I need to. And, thank you Overstock.com for continuing to offer these values!
Great vacuum. I would definitely purchase it again. It is light and picks up very well. Love this and would purchase again.
There is not much extension to the hose and it is very difficult to vacuum blinds, walls, etc. Not what I expected, very disappointed.
I purchased this Shark Navigator in April and the floor brush is broken beyond repair. Since it was refurbished there was only a 30 day warranty, it will cost $XX.XX to replace it from the manufacturer. Not worth it.
Good vacuum - picks up dog hair very well. It's light weight enough to use on my carpeted stairs.
Based on user reviews I purchased confidently and I am very happy I did. I have recommended this to others. I take it with me when I clean for others because it is so much more effective. So easy to clean, so light weight. This vacuum works as hard as I do and keeps going after I'm pooped out. Highly recommend even and especially with pets.

Saint-Saëns: Piano Trios
Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads availableCDA67538
Movement 1: Allegro ma non troppo
Movement 2: Allegretto
Movement 3: Andante con moto
Movement 4: Grazioso, poco allegro
Movement 5: Allegro
Whereas the first trio has an immediate freshness and impact, the second is the more serious and subtle work. It shows Saint-Saëns writing on a grand scale and steadfastly sticking to his principles of composition, with only limited acknowledgment of the developments that were going on around him. It contains none of the intense chromaticism that other French composers, such as Franck and Chausson, had already adopted from Wagner and Liszt. The trio is in five movements. The first and last are substantial, the middle three much shorter, creating a satisfying symmetrical structure to the whole work.
The opening is one of Saint-Saëns's most telling inspirations. The piano plays a pattern of repeated chords, rising and falling in a wave, and marked 'very lightly' (extremely difficult to achieve on the modern concert grand). Over this pattern, alternating violin and cello float a sombre melody. The melody itself suggests that Saint-Saëns might have had the opening of Tchaikovsky's massive Piano Trio in mind—the two composers had struck up a friendship in Moscow in the 1870s. But only Saint-Saëns could have combined such a broad and intense melody with such delicate and airy piano-writing. This lightness of texture gives the theme immense room to expand. It returns, pianissimo, at the end of the first section; then, after a build-up at the end of the development, it forms the great climax of the movement, fortissimo, with more agitated figurations in the piano creating as powerful an impression as anything in the Tchaikovsky Trio.
The second movement also hints at a link with Tchaikovsky. It is a sort of irregular minuet in five-time, like the second movement of the 'Pathétique' Symphony. But if there was an influence, this time it was the other way round—Tchaikovsky did not write the 'Pathétique' until the following year. Saint-Saëns demonstrates how to write a movement in five-time that sounds entirely natural, not just a quirky variant of a conventional dance. It is at first delicate and in the major, later urgent and in the minor. The opening section alternates with passages of swirling piano runs, still in five-time, but too agitated to retain any feeling of the dance. The movement ends a little more gently than it began, with the melody turned upside down and acquiring almost the languid character of a habanera.
The slow movement is brief, simple and heartfelt. A sorrowful descending phrase dominates the entire movement, already marked appassionato at the beginning and becoming more so as the intensity increases. It gives the impression of a homage to Schumann, whose chamber music Saint-Saëns championed in Paris at a time when it was thoroughly unfashionable. The fourth movement, like the second, is a dance, this time a more straightforward fast waltz.
After three quite brief movements, the finale returns to the grand scale of the first. It declares its serious intent straight away, with a solemn theme in bare octaves sounding like the subject for a fugue. Indeed much of the movement is highly contrapuntal, almost ecclesiastical in feel, though real fugal writing is reserved for a completely different theme in the centre of the movement. When the original, solemn theme returns Saint-Saëns cleverly combines the two themes together. But any impression that the music is becoming academic is offset by passages with characteristically glittering textures and virtuoso piano-writing. Late in the movement, the piano introduces yet another element: a melody with a gentle limp to the rhythm, which sounds almost as if it is harking back to the irregular dance of the second movement. This moment of relaxation is short-lived. The new theme is combined with the fugue subject, and a climax is reached. After a brief lull, Saint-Saëns distils the movement's first theme into simple running octaves on all three instruments. We could almost be back in the organ loft of La Madeleine, with a virtuoso pedal solo, and as the tension mounts Saint-Saëns brings the work to an end in a mood of powerful determination.

They say in order to become successful you must, above else, keep a positive spirit.
IF THAT'S true, then Klara will have it all in record time. A fashion model experienced at strutting her stuff down the catwalk in Prague since the age of 15, Klara began doing nudes about six months ago. After all, a person only truly knows oneself after stripping away the non-essentials of life.
Despite Klara's previous experience with nude modeling, working with Petter Hegre presented some new and welcome challenges. Not only did it mark her debut on the world-wide-web, but was also the first time she was encouraged to really let her personality ring true during a shoot. Some consider modeling to be like acting, but in the case of Klara, it was far more like just being herself.
Luckily, being nude is something she will surely find fun for a long time to come.

|Dave Grenada
Klara Wow - she is perfect!!! Please let us see more of her!!!
|Jack United States
Klara Klara is a strong sensous girl. She needs to be worked on the Techno-Gym for many hours a day to maintain her perfect shape. She would become sculpted if worked on the gym until sweat drips down her wonderful chest, across her sensual tummy and down her long lean legs.
|GERBOU France
Wonderful girl, nice setting. I only regret that she has not offered a wide spread withot her panty as she does on page 1 and 2!

|russ United States
Klara wet white and..... incredibly hot
|ardunbye United Kingdom
Klara wet white Are these on general release to the public or do I need a requisition from the 'maker of dreams'?
|Dragon India
Nice film , Hot girl There is nothing hotter than watching a Hegre Girl work out. But .... I would prefer Hegre girls doing free-hand exercises or aerobics because the multi gym ( techno gym ) is obstructing my view ( camera's view ). The bulky Techno Gym is hiding Klara's perfectly toned and honed body ( most of the time ). A film like "Marketa Pumping Iron" or "Jana Work out" would have been better.
|Jack United States
Dragon is right on the money, I'm not going to get turned on looking at fitness equipment. I often find erotic film makers choices as to what they are going to spend most of their time showing to be baffling.
|alex United Kingdom
klara magic klara looks fantastic in this movie.
|ron United States
about your website in general, i've never come across anything as equally arousing and inspiring at the same time. since music is a big part of my life it makes such a big difference that you include it in your films. you capture the moments perfectly with just the right music. great job and keep up the good work!
|Rick United States
Quality A1 Hottie I love a naturally sexy women, this woman is hot.

The upfront cost of an Otterbox is not cheap, but has definitely saved the iPhone several times!
This is the SECOND Otter Box I've purchased and had fall apart. Never again.
The only thing I would complain about is the hole for the headphones is wrong. But you can pull the little flap up. Just hate that there is a hole there that lines up incorrectly. Weird.
This is the best case I've seen for a 4S. Very well thought-out and constructed.
This case fits my phone exactly as I expected it to. My only negative is that the jack for the headphone is slightly off for the iPhone 4, meaning that I have to open the flap to use them.

Sunday 7th April
First House
£15.00 - £18.00
Sarah Weller presents the songs that proliferated Doris Day's film and recording career comprising of the legendary films Calamity Jane, Pillow Talk, Love Me or Leave Me and Young at Heart and her extensive recording collaborations and classic repertoire Sentimental Journey, Day by Day, Bewitched, Close your Eyes and Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps.
Sarah Weller, a lifelong fan, takes us on a tour of the songs that highlighted the golden era of Hollywood films to turn her into the biggest female box office star ever and popular recording star.
The show celebrates Doris' upcoming 91st birthday. Interspersed with facts about her life, her co-stars and cohorts, combined with the continuing interest in her life this is a show that is suited to fans young and old.
"With a humble assurance befitting the experienced performer that she is, singer Sarah Weller treads lightly on the 'American apple pie' phenomenon of the iconic Doris whilst touching on some of the darker aspects of her often less than satisfactory relationships with the men in her life. No mere mimicry - this well-paced show is Sarah's own 'non-ironic' take on Day's life emanating from a genuine love of her heroine's persona as a great actress as well as the show-stopping singer who touched all our hearts!"
(Paul Pace – Music Co-ordinator for Ronnie Scott's and The Spice of Life Jazz)

The music historian Sir John Hawkins tells a story concerning the next movement 'May her blest example chase' which, whether true or not, gives an idea of the problems that working for royalty sometimes brought. Commanding musical entertainment one day, the Queen sent for the soprano Mrs Hunt, the famous bass John Gostling and Purcell. They performed several of Purcell's songs, but the Queen was clearly not satisfied with such sophisticated music, eventually requesting that Mrs Hunt sing the Scots ballad 'Cold and Raw'. Mrs Hunt complied, and accompanied herself on the lute. Purcell meantime sat at the harpsichord 'unemployed and not a little nettled at the Queen's preference for a vulgar ballad to his music'. When he came to write Love's goddess sure Purcell must have remembered the Queen's request, and used the ballad tune as the bass line to 'May her blest example chase'. Harmonically it is not a particularly good line, but Purcell managed, with a struggle, to force a melody over it: the rustic string ritornello works rather well. No such struggle accompanied the duet that follows, 'Many such days' which, set over a two-bar ground bass, is a compositional tour de force. The voices enter across the ground, rather than at the start of a repeat, and Purcell brilliantly manages contrasts and modulations within the movement without having to interrupt the bass's inexorable progress. Only at the concluding string ritornello does he allow the ground to wander into the other string parts, switching it rapidly through all the lines. The chorus 'May she to Heaven late return' too is another example of Purcell's mastery of counterpoint, with subject and counter-subject treated with great imagination. The quartet that follows, 'As much as we below', is full of the delicious discords that make Purcell's pathos-laden moments so telling, especially with the descending chromaticism of the word 'mourn' and the Ode ends reflectively.

We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
When it comes to crafting supplies, many people, myself included, tend to buy much more than they really need or keep acquiring new, cooler things before they've actually used up the rest of the materials they have on hand. With so much lying around, it can be hard to find what you need for any given project unless you have a great organizational system. Here are some tips that can help you get your crafting essentials in order.
Once you've got all your supplies in order you'll be able to focus on whatever type of crafting it is you like, from making jewelry to sculpting things out of clay.

Shuttle offers Linux-loaded all-in-one Atom desktop
Shuttle has introduced a version of its X500 "ultra-thin" all-in-one desktop PC that now comes pre-loaded with Linux - openSUSE 11.1, to be precise. The X500V is based on a dual-core Atom 330 processor running at 1.6GHz. The base spec includes 1GB of DDR 2 memory - a second Dimm slot lets you up that to 2GB - and a 160GB hard …
Not wild about SUSE...
...but it appears to be a nifty little box. I wonder if you could put Ubuntu or something on it.
(On the heels of the Snow Leopard article I also have to wonder if it's got hardware that would support an EFI dongle and OSX.)
This looks like the perfect wall-mounted media center PC. Nice and thin, touch screen, and with added ram would have more than enough oomph to display at least standard definition video out the VGA port.
Diddy little thing!
But Media Centre PC? Running on an Atom? This couldn't make a dent in proper HD content, surely?
what is that windoze logo, then?
Kitchen PC
Hmm, I could see something like this as an ideal kitchen PC, assuming that is it is possible to get some sort of cover for the screen to stop any grease or what not getting stuck inside.
Just wish I had a big enough kitchen!
@Adam C 1
Based on past articles about Atom CPUs and HD... that would likely be a 'no'. Still, can't complain with the rest of the base specs, Gigabit and Wifi-n. The last box I picked up (HP Pavillion SF slimline thing-gummy - it's a dev box what do I care ;) ) has neither.
@Adam C 1
You didn't see the Gadget Show's test then? The Aspire Revo had no troubles with HD content - and, yes, it runs on an Atom processor. But IIRC it had separate graphics capability.
@Adam C 1
When sensibly done, HD decoding should depend more on the graphics hardware rather than the CPU... but then admittedly most Atoms are paired with the awful joke that is Intel's current graphics chipsets so chances are it's not going to be too good. Should still be good enough for standard video though.
@Mike Hebe
You know if you can stick openSUSE, you can be damn sure that Ubuntu'll run on it.
Given the touchscreen I'd say it'd look great sporting the netbook remix.
I do see one drawback with the media centre PC idea, no DVD drive.
Single Touch or Multi Touch
Can I request reviewers FROM NOW ON to please note whether a touch screen is Single Touch or Multitouch ?
Capactive or Resistive would also be nice to know, but that might require technical knowledge.
The Atom will happily playback HD content as long as it's coupled with a decent graphics card to do the hard work. Google 'Nvidia Ion'.
Given there's no mention of the graphics card I'm guessing this is an all intel setup in which case you're correct - it will be less than ideal if you have HD content.
I use an eeebox with an atom chip and intel graphics for a very very nice XBMC server. It only plays SD content, but then that's when most my content is. It'll also happily play anything off the iplayer. Next year I'll probably replace it with an Ion setup, keeping the very low power consumption, but significantly boosting the playback capabilities.
@ mike any distro will work and ubuntu probably right off the disk. But SuSe's a good distro give it a try, Ignore the in fighting.
@adam no one claimed it to be a media centre PC. It's 15" @ 720p, wich a single core atom can do (done it on my acer one, crappy intel driver and all).
KDE and gnome are slow on the gutless atoms though. I look forward to seeing how moblin shapes up. From the alpha's I've used it could rule the atom's easily. That's why intel's developing it though I guess.
Oh yeah touch screen = goodness
What does the windows button do?
Re: Diddy little thing!
I can't make an attest to Windows MCE.... AND WHO'D WANT TO USE THAT POS!
When you have either MythTV and or better still VDR.
Which unlike the above (Microsoft!), works with every DVB Standard out there and, VDR which works even better then MythTV!
Assuming for a moment that we have VDR as a player and a Reel Multimedia ~*Netceiver~ (sitting somewhere out of the way (ie Attic or in the Basement), Which you connect to your Dish / Cable Network / Areal, and then to a local Network throughout your House.
I could see something like this working out well enough if Shuttle were to allow us to use a Remote control as well a touch options.
As for being able to do 720P (1366x768 = 1280x720 IIRC), that would depend on what kind of IGP this thing came with. Assuming for a second that it was a modern nVidia Chip GF8400 or better then you could use the VDPAU Driver to display such content.
My TV is also native to 1366x768 and is capable of both 720P and 1080i.
I use a Reel-eHD to do the heavy lifting h.264 decoding for the moment, but I do plan to move to the nVidia VDPAU in the near future. With the release of VDR-1.8.0.
@Adam C 1
Depends on whether it's based around the nVidia ION chipset, or something a little more mundane...
With the graphics acceleration from the nVidia platform, I think atoms are more than capable of doing HD playback.
Have I missed something?
What's with the Windows Start-button-esque... err... button? Is it dual boot to Vista?
Windows Button
The windows button is for when people go "how the hell do i use this thing?" - they say "oh that looks like how to get back in to windows", click that, then it gives them a helpful message saying "sorry, this is linux not windows, you're shit out of luck"
either that or the promo pictures are from the windows model not the linux model, but i'm sure it's probably the first explanation
Should be $300 - $450
HOW much?
"[The] X500V is priced from €511 (£366/$752)."
Eh? According to the FT's currency converter, although the US$ price is about right, the UK price is more like £446. Sadly, we're not back to the dizzy heights of £=2$!
Looks OK
No ION gfx though. Might have to look into getting one of these in 6 months when the "ooh, look, shiny new product!" price disappears.
@Ian Yates
That looks like it is the Shuttle X 5000T, which comes with Vista Home installed.
I want
But at ~£450 it's a bit steep to try and persuade the missus :(

I was thinking you need to find the defrost sensor. It probably is in the form of some sort of thermister. The board needs to know when to defrost and yours isn't defrosting and you have replaced the terminator which shuts down the heater and the heater and the board but so far you have not replaced the defrost sensor have you?
Here's what you can conclude from your tests:1. The heater is OK2. The timer is likely not the issue, since you manually initiated a defrost with no heating.3. I would replace both defrost thermostats.The temperature thermister has nothing to do with this problem, so don't test it for anything.

I've also linked to this initiative at DeathKnight.info.
Hey folks, I had an idea and I wanted to keep it separate and uncluttered from the other discussions.
For all discussions on Dual Wield Death Knight tanking you can find a big discussion (in its better days) going on here.
To pair with the theoretical discussion I'd like to collect data of DK's dual wield tanking raids and heroics, and document that along side their spec they used and gear set. I've created a WWS account, and here's a quick description of how to use it:
So below, if people could abstain from unhelpful commentary, I'd appreciate if folks could collect logs as they raid dual wield tanking, and post the link to the report below along with a link to your armory page (in your tank gear if you can remember to log out that way), and/or your spec and tanking stats.For anyone who doesn't know how to WWS, when you're in game type "/combatlog" into your chat line, you'll get a confirmation message. When you're done collecting, type it again. When you log off (won't be able to remove the file until then), go into your WoW directory, into the "Logs" folder, there will be a file called WoWCombatlog. Take that file and drag it to your desktop. Go to:
Wow Web Stats.
I created an account so we can put all of the information under one heading:
Username: DKDW
password: idualwield
Pleast use it only for this data collection. When you go to the site and log in there is big button to "Start Client." This will open a Java applet. You enter the path to your combat log (on your desktop or wherever you put it). On one tab you'll need to enter the website login, though it will fill on future use automatically. Please enter in the comments who created the data, and a short description of where, such as Naxx10, ObSanc25, etc.
After you host it, you'll have the data compiled on a central page that you will be taken to, you can link your WWS back here to us on this post/forum, and we can see the exact breakdown of your damage taken (and done) as well as your amount of attacks parried.
I don't mind a bit of commentary or any needed flavor for the data (special buffs, food/elixir use, etc), but otherwise I'd like to keep this thread a bit more clear of criticism and discussion.

I had a quick look at the wws and it looked like abilities that could be parried had an average around 7% for all the boss fights. Thats not much imo for someone that's dualwielding with only 5% parry reduction from expertice.
~This Duck Shoots Back~
Until bliz officially damns DW tanking, I haven't the slightest intention of giving up - I'm certain there's many more like me. Yes, there's the new 2h enchant next patch but still I can get 4% parry off 2 swordbreakings, so that's not bad at all.
one thing I noticed from the wws i posted was my rune strike accounted for the highest % of my overall damage, nudging ahead of white hits. With the increase to its threat I hope this will work out well for tps come 3.0.8.
Right now my rotation is not ideal, but again in 3.0.8 the removal of the cooldown on HB should help with that.
It will be interesting to see how they deal with killing machine.
Any and all feedback, aside from that of 'mr. black head / hat / mood ring', I'd very much appreciate.
More posts to come next week, no more content to do this week.
I've recently moved into tanking raids, and hope to have some info for you soon, Satorri. Will post data the instant I have some.
Agreed, Visual, and thank you all for contributing, more data we can get, the better we can gauge things.
I'm wanting to add data myself, but right now my "tanking" one-handers are blues which just hurts to down-grade from my love of my 2-hand godlyonastick. Maybe I should just use my epic dps 1-handers, not like I get or need tank stats out of my 2-hander...
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Couple of nice little items to pull from Tombfire's first contribution:
As Nips pointed out, only 5% parried swings averaged across the all the boss fights is pretty reasonable (granted it includes fights like Gothik and Patchy where it won't matter if you're parried). On checking though, even Maexxna only parried 5.5% of the melee swings (159 swings, 5.5% parry = 9 swings).
The other thing I'm interested in is the relative % of Rune Strikes used next to regular melee swings, since one idea we've been kicking around is that you can make use of more procs than a 2-hander.
Taking the boss-only tally, Tomb got 591 RS vs 2722 Melee swings. That works out to 17.8% swing conversion at 57.2% dodge+parry.
I'm going to collect some 2-hand data from my next raids to see if I can compare on the same grounds.
Thanks Tomb for getting the ball rolling.

Naxx 25 - plague and military wings.
A poor capture from my perspective - we have a warrior tank that MTd most of the bosses last night.
Shared tanking duties with Gluth, took some hatefuls on patch, was nursing blameaux / the holy guy on 4h. Nothing too exciting. Will post more captures this week as I get em.
Using my 3.0.8 spec now, tps and dps up a lot. Killing machine in its current form is just silly. I certainly hope GC and crew don't nerf it 'into the ground'.
If you look carefully you can see where I hit people twice in one polarity shift with the wrong charge on thaddius and survived Thank christ for AM shell (it absorbed nearly 30k), I should rly pay more attention.

Howling Blast is working well for you, it looks to be doubling your functional crit rate on IT/HB/FS, which is very nice. From other people's parses I've seen on the PTR, it looks like KM should be very nicely buffed for dual wield tanks. The change is surely not a nerf for us, at most it would be for dps, but I don't think even that is the case (except maybe to cap F/U fast/fast proc nuts).

I was wondering, do you want all tanking data, or only for when you're the MT? I've been doing OT in my guild's raids so far, and I haven't been uploading WWS data because I didn't figure it would be as good as MT data, but if you want to look at the OT perspective as well, I'll upload it from now on.
Well, any tanking data will be helpful (provided you are tanking, that's what we're after here, right?). Please do make note, on the header for the WWS and/or on your post here to denote which fights you tanked and any other similar flavor to the fights that we would want to know. We can certainly decypher it from the reports, but if you spell it out ahead of time it'll help.
I'll refrain from posting any 2-hand tanking reports on that, but I can share some of my own, otherwise. I've been taking a back seat lately and letting my co-tank run the raids. It's nice to be a quiet participant sometimes, I can talk your head off when I get passionate/excited about something. Can you tell by my posts? =)

uploaded another report at: WWS Loading...
MTing on Malygos 25, grand widow faerlina (letting her enrage). Other stuff in the report is junk, just us hard failing to sarth + adds, and the rest of spider wing in naxx25 etc.
Uploaded a WWS from a 10 man Naxx to my own profile. I am using a 10/42/19 spec at the moment (can Armory me I am camped in my tank gear and with the same spec). I was able to maintain 4-5k TPS easily on single targets and I was spiking as high as 7k at times depending on how crits were working. For Patchwerk I was the hurtful tank and had to back off a few times to not pass the Paly (he was having threat issues but won't go into that) and I MT'd everything else on the report.
I am in dire need of a second tanking weapon at the moment but my tank stats aren't necessarily hurting at the moment. Bear in mind this was only with 25 expertise.

Selection bias is going to be a natural problem, so let's not aggravate things.
Anyway, DK threat is super-easy to figure out. Take your DPS, subtract pet DPS, multiply that by 2.0735, add any MD or TOTT threat. It'll be a little more complex after 3.0.8 but not by that much. For example, in this Patchwerk, Parry did 4300-ish TPS.

Selection bias would be to only show the fights where it works well. If people are submitting full raid tanking reports where they are dual wield main tanking, that is useful information and goes heavily in the "this is not a zomgparrygib" column.
This is raw data collection, not a statistical analysis. If it can be done, it can be done, this is just for some results to sandbox with.

Dear friends,
Later this week I will meet with members in Washington, D.C. and offer them an overview of our Capital Campaign, its key objectives, and suggest ways in which we need their help. While we have reached the $36 million mark in the campaign, we have much more work to do to achieve our $50 million goal. My presentation will outline our plans to:
*Share expertise by helping our constituents learn more about resources and methodologies to provide a stronger foundation and understanding of the field through personal interactions with our staff of world class experts.
*Build collections by continuing to add to the largest collection of original, primary materials collected by a genealogical organization and by making these unique materials widely accessible.
*Expand resources through offering new ways of sharing content, resources and expertise, such as via our award-winning website, AmericanAncestors.org.
*Embrace the future by creating a new, stronger platform for economic sustainability and long-term financial success that will propel our organization into an even higher level of serving its national and international constituents.
Wishing you happy holidays … and all the best in 2012,

Track 17 on CDS44461/7 CD2 [2'10] 7CDs Boxed set (at a special price)
These three works by Byrd and Orlando Gibbons's equally famous The Lord of Salisbury, his Pavin and its accompanying Galiardo (both also in A-minor Aeolian mode) were published in Parthenia (1612/13) a few months after Cecil's death. The works may have been written close to that year, and would thus date from the end of Byrd's life, when he was about seventy. The pavan in particular has been popular even as a piano piece from the middle of the nineteenth century up until Glenn Gould. Its popularity was also helped by a sensitive arrangement for strings in Sir John Barbirolli's Elizabethan Suite.
Surprisingly for such a serious work, this is only an '8-bar' pavan. Even more unusually, it and the first galliard have only two strains rather than the normal three. Most strange of all, for these three works Byrd did not provide the varied repeats found with all his other pavans and galliards. The pavan runs to a total of only 16 semibreves in all (although if one adds the repeats this becomes 32). Since the works were published in London during his lifetime, I have refrained from adding too much elaborate variation in the repeats since the composer presumably did not wish it here.

The Nation's Grid Chiefs: On The Future of Markets
Exclusive interviews with the CEOs of five regional transmission systems.
foreign. They have a lot of difficulty dealing with [LMP] and they don't want to deal with it. They abhor it. But it doesn't matter. The point is that technology is changing.
Look at ERCOT. Look at California. New England started on a new path, but they ended up scrapping it. Every area of the country that has started without LMP, but still wants markets, has ended up paying through the nose.
Fortnightly: What about removing price caps—going to an energy-only market, or full nodal pricing for load? Can we overcome the stumbling blocks?
Harris: We can get rid of every bit of that tomorrow, if every state will allow the full floating price every five minutes to be reflected in the customer's bill.
Fortnightly: What about the software? Do you have the wizards who can make this happen?
Harris: Sure. That's no impediment. The problem is that the public will not tolerate the volatility of the short-term price spikes. Just look at what happened in Maryland. Look at what happened in the Midwest, in May of 1999. No policymaker will tolerate short-term price volatility at the retail level.
Up and until the time that states will allow retail customers to see the real-time prices, and pay the real-time prices, you're forced to create square-peg/round-hole solutions; to create surrogates for scarcity pricing. And that's all that RPM [reliability pricing model] is—a surrogate for scarcity pricing. You can't be "energy-only" until people can pay the price reflecting scarcity. And we don't control that.
Fortnightly: So it's a matter of consumer education?
Harris: No, it's a matter of public policy. The policymakers in each state must decide what is better for their citizens. Are they better off allowing them to see and pay the real-time price of electricity? If they're not, because of the volatility and how high the price can get in the short term, then the only thing you have left is to provide some sort of surrogate for scarcity pricing. We've done that, through something we call RPM [reliability pricing model].
You don't have a choice. Generators have to be able to recover their costs. You have to have enough capacity to run the system. So something has to give.
Fortnightly: What if a state bans imports of coal-fired power or imposes a cost penalty for CO 2 emissions? Could your software and markets deal with that?
Harris: Well, we can track it. We can provide the certificates that would track where the energy was coming from, based on the hour and how much was used. We have the databases that can do that type of problem.
Fortnightly: Are you preparing for this kind of thing—for control of CO 2 emissions?
Harris: No. I have to manage what my staff does. I'm not going to create models for a hypothetical. It's not a technology question. Can you build environmental constraints into the dispatch? Yes. Is it the right public policy? That hasn't even been debated yet. It would take FERC to order us to do that.
Fortnightly: I understand you're not

Post subject: Empire Selection for Tournaments
Looking at the official Origins tournament rules, I noticed that it's on a fixed map. This should tend to favour empires with lots of seeking weapons. I'd therefore expect Kzintis and Gorns to be very competitive. Roms pay a big premium for the cloak, and I don't really know how useful it would be.
Crunch should do OK, so Federation would be a reasonable choice. Hydrans & LDR would have the gatlings to deal with drones and plasma. Tholians have web snares and the webcaster, although I'd expect their one webcaster-equipped ship to be a fire magnet.
I see the least competitive empires being Lyrans, Klingons and Seltorians. Lyrans have plenty of anti-drone defense, but the ESG isn't that useful offensively in a squadron battle because ranges tend to be longer. Klingons are rather fragile and do better on a location or floating map. Selts have poor turn modes, lack crunch, and have little defense against seekers. (Although I'd probably play Selts anyway, because of my quixotic affection for the bugs.)
Orions are the wildcards, as usual. I'd expect to see drones, plasma, gatlings and hellbores.

Lyran ESG's should make them worthwhile, defensively or offensively. Selts have enough phasers to provide decent defense, and plenty of extra power for increased speed.

This does sound scary for races like Klingons. There's only so far on the map to go until someone with more crunch can get to range ~4 or so. Would the Klingon's best bet be to turn in with overloads instead of trying to do the standard saber dance?

In previous years we played Fleet scale at the tournament, this year will be the first at Squadrn scale.
The Klingons are a little tough to play with in the tournament. There is a restriction that you can only bring two of the same ship, so that rule prevents the Klingon from bringing 3 D-5Ws (148 each). Max is 450 pts. The next option for the Klingons is a C-7 and 2 D-5s. This force is a little fragile, but good.

If I were Klingon on a fixed map, I'd probably abandon Saber Dance, or at least the traditonal type, and try using drones to force out Phasers, before Ducking in to exchange overloads. However, in this case, I should just use the Kzinti. Or is empire selection random.

Nope you choose your empire and the ships that you want in your fleet. 450 bpv. 3-4 ships. No more than 2 of the same type except, you can only have 1 DN or BCH.

Kentucky coach John Calipari is getting a raise after he led the Wildcats to their eighth NCAA title last month.
Athletics director Mitch Barnhart announced Friday that the school had awarded Calipari an 8.3 percent increase annually in his guaranteed compensation over the remaining seven years of his deal now worth $36.5 million. Three assistants also received multiyear extensions.
"It's rare, in this day and age, to be able to keep a staff together that has helped produce a national championship and back-to-back Final Four runs," Barnhart said. "We want to show them how appreciative we are of their hard work and dedication and how much they mean to this program."
Calipari will receive $5.2 million annually from endorsements, base salary and retention bonuses for each of the next six years. The deal increases to $5.3 million in 2018-19. He can also earn up to $850,000 a year in performance bonuses.
Assistant coaches Orlando Antigua (two-year extension), Kenny Payne (three years) and John Robic (two years) will have base salaries ranging from $250,000 to $350,000 before incentives. Their contracts have a combined guaranteed value of $2.15 million.
Calipari took over the Wildcats in the spring of '09 and immediately elevated the program back to elite status.
Kentucky went to the Elite Eight in Calipari's first year, the Final Four in his second and won the first title of his career in April after a 67-59 victory over Kansas to finish 38-2. It was the school's eighth championship in school history and first since 1998.
His entire starting lineup — freshmen Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Marquis Teague and sophomores Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb — has declared for this June's NBA Draft. Davis is expected to be the No. 1 pick. Senior forward Darius Miller, the sixth man on the championship team, also is expected to be drafted.
Nine Wildcats have been selected in the NBA Draft over the past two seasons, but Calipari has managed to reload each year by promoting his "players' first" approach to the program. His latest recruiting class is expected to be ranked No. 1 for the fourth straight year when the signing period ends May 16 with the additions of Nerlens Noel, Archie Goodwin, Alex Poythress and Willie Cauley, as the Wildcats work to replace seven players on their roster.
Calipari has a 102-14 record at Kentucky, and he never has lost at Rupp Arena in 51 games.
The Wildcats head into next season with the nation's longest home winning streak at 52 straight. According to the school, all four of his seniors and a junior have earned degrees since he arrived, with two more on track to graduate this year.
Calipari is one of two coaches to take three different schools to the Final Four, but runs in '96 with Massachusetts and '08 with Memphis were later vacated by the NCAA because of rules violations, though he never was implicated. Calipari, who also spent 2½ seasons in the NBA, is 547-154 in 20 years as a college head coach.

Written by Andrew Malekoff Friday, 30 December 2011 00:00
A few weeks ago, in an attempt to fight off a cold, I ordered a bowl of chicken soup at a local lunch counter. One of the counter boys who is in his late teens asked me if I heard that the United States was just declared a war-zone by the U.S. Senate. I said, "What are you talking about?"
He filled me in. But what he told me didn't fully compute. What he said, in a nutshell, was that the U.S. Senate passed a bill that would empower the U.S. Military to arrest American citizens and detain them anywhere in the world without being charged or without a trial. I didn't want to be dismissive. I questioned myself, "Why didn't I hear about this in the mainstream media?"
I asked him where he heard this. He told me that he read about it on the Internet. When I got home I searched the Internet. What I found was some alternative-media commentary and the actual text of a recent bill (the National Defense Authorization Act - S 1867).
On the evening of December 2, 2011 the U.S. Senate voted, by an overwhelming majority of 93 – 7, to approve what some commentators described as the darkest piece of legislation ever passed in America. Both New York senators voted "yes."
After reading the commentary about S 1867 I wondered, "Is there a real threat to our rights, or is this a radical spin?" If I was having trouble making sense of it I imagined others would as well.
The key issues in question are sections 1031 and 1032, which allow the president to authorize the U.S. Armed Forces to detain and hold in custody a person who was a member or part of al Qaeda or "an associated force" and participated in planning or carrying out an attack or attempted attack against the United States or its coalition partners.
I wondered what the fuss was all about. Someone, in a man-on-the-street interview that I found on YouTube, said of the legislation, "If you're not doing anything wrong, then you have nothing to worry about." Or, is the devil is in the details. For example, what does "member of an associated force" mean? Could it be stretched to mean anyone with a dissenting voice who government officials perceive as a threat? Could it be someone close to you who is exercising freedom of speech or association?
The interpretations of the commentators were that the legislation would authorize the U.S. military to operate on American soil and to arrest and detain American citizens with no charge, no trial and no oversight. They concluded that by dismissing the right to due process, this legislation, if fully enacted, leaves American citizens without the protections of the Constitution and invalidates the Bill of Rights. If signed into law, they reasoned, it could mean secret arrests, no due process, and no right to remain silent and to be tried by a jury of one's peers, secret prisons, unlawful interrogation and indefinite detention without being charged with a crime.
Ninety-three out of 100 U.S. senators signed on to this legislation. What am I missing? I couldn't find anything substantial in the mainstream media about this. What should I say to my young friend next time I see him at the lunch counter? Does he have a right to be worried? Do we?
This "exercise" brought to my attention just how difficult it is for young people (and us older ones too) to synthesize the glut of information that is available today. The least we can do is to listen and be co-investigators with young people, attempting together to sort out the mysteries that besiege us in this information-age.

Tami is someone you want to be friends with. This name is derived from the original name Tammy. She is someone you can talk with for hours and not get bored. A Tami is someone you can trust and rely on.
"I made a friend today. She is awesome and trustworthy"
"Is she a Tami?"
"How'd you guess?"
