I tried using this and it didn't find anything. So I checked out top40db, and it's giving a message that it's overloaded and maxed out. Guess a lot of people have downloaded this app? Will try again later…

i downloaded this and it didn't have the lyrics for any of my songs…. i tried 'allison' by elvis costello… very, very basic. nope. nothing. i tried various other songs, and nothing. suck

The plot thickens. Now it appears that www.top40db.net has been shut down by the administrators. Does anybody know what is going on with this?
Posted by lesliet on June 3, 2003 at 8:15 PM (CDT)
Now don't get me wrong, because I love the way this app is shaping up… However it doesn't find songs very well. Like, really really common songs and it doesn't find them. Like I have a fair few beatles tracks, only one of them worked. It couldnt find, Yesterday, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Yellow Submarine.
It does find some songs though, it just seems that it can't be putting the info into the search engine very well, otherwise it would find more.

You guys should download the LyricTracker client. That works pretty well and it has iPod support.

Tried iLyric 0.7 and I think it's great! It found 24 of the 32 songs I searched for (little slow searching maybee).
One annoying thing (especially in slow songs) is that you have to scroll the wheel on the iPod to prevent it from returning to the "play-screen" after some seconds…
Is it impossible to make the lyrics scroll automaticly with the song…? Couldn't such information be stored in the file?
Posted by Kristian on June 17, 2003 at 2:34 PM (CDT)
unless the iPod is able to mysteriously scroll on its own(which it cant)....no.
Posted by Alex Stapleton on June 17, 2003 at 5:22 PM (CDT)
Back in 2003 I had an MP3 CD player called the SlimX made by iRiver and it came with a program that allowed you to view the lyrics for the next 10 seconds.
The only problem with it was that you had to find the lyrics yourself and set the timing for when you wanted the lyrics to be shown.
To give you an idea as to how long 1 song took to set the lyrics and the timing… well… lets just say it took the better part of 10 minutes to manually configure it.
Not worth it.
However that WAS about 3 years ago… hopefully someone can come up with a program that can incorporate lyric programming for ipods.
Who knows?

A look at Syria developments around the world
The United States is considering launching a punitive strike against the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad, blamed by the U.S. and the Syrian opposition for an Aug. 21 alleged chemical weapons attack in a rebel-held suburb of the Syrian capital of Damascus. The U.S. said the attack killed 1,429 people, including at least 426 children. Those numbers are significantly higher than the death toll of 355 provided by the aid group Doctors Without Borders.
The Associated Press
The United States is considering launching a punitive strike against the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad, blamed by the U.S. and the Syrian opposition for an Aug. 21 alleged chemical weapons attack in a rebel-held suburb of the Syrian capital of Damascus. The U.S. said the attack killed 1,429 people, including at least 426 children. Those numbers are significantly higher than the death toll of 355 provided by the aid group Doctors Without Borders.
President Barack Obama said he has decided that the United States should take military action against Syria but will seek congressional authorization for the use of force.
Here's a look at key Syria developments around the world Sunday amid heightened tensions over potential military action:
A Syrian state-run newspaper said Obama's decision to seek congressional approval before taking military action against Syria marks "the start of the historic American retreat." The Al-Thawra daily said in a front-page editorial that Obama's reluctance to carry out strikes stems from his "sense of implicit defeat and the disappearance of his allies." Its editorials reflect the thinking of Assad's regime.
The White House sent Congress a draft of a resolution seeking approval for a military response to "deter, disrupt, prevent and degrade" the Assad regime's ability to use chemical weapons going forward. The Senate will hold hearings next week so a vote can take place after Congress gets back to work the week of Sept. 9.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon was expected to be briefed by the head of the U.N. chemical weapons inspection team, Ake Sellstrom. The team collected samples from alleged chemical weapons attack sites in Syria that are expected to be repackaged in the Netherlands and sent to laboratories around Europe to check them for traces of poison gas. Evidence would have to be analyzed in the laboratories before any report is made to member states. There is no specific time line for how soon the analysis will be completed.
President Francois Hollande's office said he will wait for the French Parliament and the U.S. Congress to consider possible military action on Syria before making a decision about whether to launch strikes against Assad's regime. The French Parliament is due to debate Syria on Wednesday, but Hollande does not need its permission to order France to intervene militarily.
Five U.S. Navy destroyers were in the eastern Mediterranean Sea - armed with dozens of Tomahawk cruise missiles, which have a range of about 1,000 nautical miles (1,151 miles, 1,852 kilometers) and are used for precise targeting. Obama announced Friday that "we are prepared to strike whenever we choose."
Iranian state TV said an Iranian parliamentary delegation in Damascus visited with Syrians allegedly injured in chemical weapons attacks that the Assad regime blames on rebels. They were also expected to meet with the Syrian prime minister and foreign minister.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his Cabinet his country is ready for "any possible scenario" after Obama put on hold potential military action in Syria. He said Israel's enemies "have very good reasons not to test our strength." With the U.S. threatening to strike Syria in response to alleged chemical weapons use, many Israelis fear that Syria might retaliate by attacking across the border at Israel.
Arab League foreign ministers were scheduled to hold an emergency session in Cairo to discuss Syria. Egyptian foreign minister Nabil Fahmy said Cairo rejects military intervention in Syria except under Chapter 7 of the U.N. charter, whereby it is proven the country has become a danger to international peace and security. He asked for a decision be put off until U.N. investigators report their findings.
Information Minister Mohammad Momani said Jordan believes diplomatic efforts must be exhausted before Washington opts for the military option.

The 28-year-old said it "wouldn't be appropriate" for her to have sat in for her Geordie pal despite their "similar opinions".
She added that Nicole Scherzinger, who was drafted in as Cheryl's stand in, will be "interesting to watch".

Future of Nursing Initiative
FRIDAY, Feb. 18 (HealthDay News) -- The American College of Physicians has established guidelines for insulin therapy in hospitalized patients with or without diabetes, and another group of researchers has determined that there are no benefits for achieving strict glycemic control rather than less strict control in hospitalized patients; both articles have been published in the Feb. 15 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Amir Qaseem, M.D., Ph.D., of the American College of Physicians in Philadelphia, and colleagues conducted a literature review to provide practice guidelines for intensive insulin therapy (IIT) to achieve different glycemic targets in hospitalized patients. They recommend not using IIT to strictly control blood glucose or to normalize blood glucose in non-surgical intensive care unit/medical intensive care unit (SICU/MICU) patients with or without diabetes. When insulin therapy is used for SICU/MICU patients, the blood glucose level should be kept to 140 to 200 mg/dL, according to the recommendations.
Devan Kansagara, M.D., of the Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, and colleagues conducted a literature review in an evaluation of the benefits and harms of using IIT titrated to strict glycemic targets in hospitalized patients. They found no consistent evidence of benefit from IIT targeted to strict glycemic control as opposed to less strict control. They did find that IIT is related to an increased risk of severe hypoglycemia.
"Most of these trials were small, single-center studies conducted in ICU or surgical settings. This fact may limit the generalizability of findings, especially to general medical ward settings," Kansagara and colleagues conclude.
One author of the first article disclosed a financial relationship with Pfizer.

Nov. 15, 2013
He is known to be quite the salesman — but whether he delivers on those promises is a different story entirely.
In October 2011 Mike Moreno told ABiz he was living in Dallas temporarily to raise $300 million for Green Field Energy Services, a company that was providing hydraulic fracturing services to the oil and gas industry. (The main purpose of Moreno's call was to deny an ABiz story indicating he was no longer involved in the day-to-day operations of Moreno Group.)
Like he's done many times before, the Cuban-born businessman — who grew up in Morgan City and earned an MBA from UL Lafayette — raised the money, and for a time Green Field looked like it would be another big hit. In fact, in a glowing story in The Daily Advertiser, published in July of this year, the Lafayette-based company boasted that it was talking to about a dozen companies interested in doing business with it — with Green Field's vice president of sales noting how difficult it would be to grow that fast.
Less than two months later, on Sept. 9, there was a clear sign the ostentatious entrepreneur's Green Field Energy Services, the first company to run its hydraulic fracturing equipment on natural gas, was in trouble:
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Green Field Energy Services, Inc.'s (Green Field) Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to Ca and Probability of Default Rating (PDR) to Ca-PD / LD. The US$250 million senior secured notes rating was also downgraded to C from Caa2. Green Field's liquidity is weak and the rating outlook is negative. "The downgrade of Green Field's ratings reflects its default of principal payment on its credit facility with Shell, which in turn triggered a cross default under the senior secured notes," said Saulat Sultan, Moody's Vice President. "The company's business model is unproven and its survival remains predicated on new equity contributions and further concessions from debtholders."
|Green Field's Turbine Fracturing Pumps
The downgrade was in part prompted by Green Field defaulting on an $80 million loan from Shell, but most troubling in the Moody's downgrade was what it had to say about Moreno:
The company also did not receive the committed preferred stock investment from its owner and CEO (Mr. Michael [sic] Moreno, who owns 93% of the company).
The company has weak liquidity. Cash and cash flow are insufficient to fund sizable obligations relating to its interest expense, mandatory debt amortization and capital expenditures. In the absence of new equity investment from existing or new capital providers, Green Field has significant "going concern" issues.
Then, in October, Green Field defaulted on a $250 million loan from Wilmington Trust.
By late October there was no denying the company was in serious trouble. On Oct. 27 Moreno's Green Field (Billy Rucks and Kevin Moody are minor investors, according to Green Field's annual report) filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, hoping to reorganize its approximately $500 million in outstanding debt — about the same amount it lists in assets.
This time the man with the Midas touch, whose business deals almost always seem to end up in a heated court battle, might need to pull a rabbit out of his hat to get this venture out of bankruptcy.
Moreno, who is in his mid-40s, serves as chairman and CEO of the private company, having led the group that purchased Lafayette businessman John Egle's Hub City Industries in mid-2011, changing its name to Green Field — which was soon boasting that it was years ahead of its competition in the use of natural gas to run its hydraulic fracturing equipment (claiming it could even pipe the hydrocarbon directly from the wellhead). The company also offers cementing, coiled tubing, pressure pumping, acidizing and other pumping services. Its major competitors are the big boys of the oilfield services industry, Halliburton, Schlumberger and Baker Hughes.
It now appears that the high-flying entrepreneur behind The Moreno Group — Dynamic Industries, ARC Industries, Southern Steel & Supply, and Industrial Solutions Group — was off in his timing. (According to his Green Field bio, Moreno has not been involved in the management of Moreno Group since July 2012, though he retains a seat on its board.)
Green Field President Rick Fontova told the Houston Chronicle that the company started offering its fracturing services at a time when competitors were expanding and other companies were entering the market, creating an immediate glut in equipment. "Back in 2011 in this market, the demand far exceeded the supply and margins were much higher, which was how we entered the market," Fontova told the newspaper. "But very quickly the conditions changed to where there was an oversupply."
Green Field's response was to dramatically increase its fleet of fracturing pumps, which mine natural gas, from eight in 2011 to 65 today. All the while, natural gas prices were starting to bottom out, causing a slowdown in hydraulic fracturing.
|On Sept. 9, about two months before Green Field Energy Services filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, Moody's Investors Service downgraded the company, noting: "The company also did not receive the committed preferred stock investment from its owner and CEO (Mr. Michael [sic] Moreno, who owns 93% of the company)."
The company's big break — or so it seemed at the time — came in 2012 when it signed a long-term contract with Royal Dutch Shell.
In May 2012 Green Field announced that it had inked the deal with Shell to begin offering hydraulic fracturing services. "We are pleased to announce that we have moved beyond the manufacturing phase and into operational mode," Moreno said in the announcement. "We have commenced hydraulic fracturing operations with Shell in the United States. Shell is utilizing Green Field's unique and proprietary clean turbine pumping technology, which offers significant environmental and efficiency advantages over pumps powered by traditional diesel engines."
Shell went on to become Green Field's top customer, accounting for nearly 80 percent of its $145 million in 2012 revenue, according to public documents.
Court records indicate the company hasn't turned a profit in four of the past five years, but the loss of Shell's business in August of this year was apparently too much to overcome. The Wall Street Journal reports that as of its Chapter 11 filing in Wilmington, Del., Green Field had $255.9 million in bond debt, an $80 million credit facility owed to Shell and $98.6 million in trade debt. The national newspaper points out that Green Field argues in court documents that Shell failed to perfect liens securing this debt, which the WSJ believes is a hint that a potential court fight could be in the making.
Green Field lost $74.6 million last year and $81.4 million so far this year.
It's unclear how many of Green Field's 355 people at 14 facilities throughout Texas and Louisiana have been laid off. A source with information about its local operations told ABiz in late October that about half of the roughly 40 office staffers in Lafayette had already lost their jobs. The company's Lafayette office is located at 4023 Ambassador Caffery Parkway.
Company filings indicate Green Field owns half of Franklin-based Turbine Powered Technology. According to Green Field's website, in September 2011 (a month before Moreno made the call to ABiz to say he was living in Dallas temporarily to raise money), Green Field and Marine Turbine Technologies formed Turbine Powered Technology to design and produce turbine equipment from old military aircraft engines.
The Houston Chronicle noted that Moreno also holds stakes in several companies that do business with Green Field, including (and not surprisingly) some on the company's list of top creditors.
Green Field secured $30 million in bankruptcy financing from GB Credit Partners LLC and ICON Capital LLC to keep the business operating as it restructures. GB Credit Partners said in a prepared statement that the financing will be used to fund essential expenses during the bankruptcy process, noting that the loan is secured by super priority lien in all of Green Field Energy Services' assets.
A voice message left with Fontova was not returned.
Moreno buys Troy Aikman's Dallas home
A Dallas-based website that caters to the "truly real-estate obsessed in Dallas and North Texas" has turned up some pretty interesting info on Lafayette's Mike Moreno: It seems his company's financial troubles didn't halt the boy wonder's personal spending one iota, as Moreno was busy adding to his collection of residences in the months leading up to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy of Green Field Energy Services.
|A Dallas-based real estate website reports that in July Lafayette businessman Mike Moreno purchased this home (which listed for $14 million) from former Dallas Cowboys QB Troy Aikman, adding to his collection of residences that includes a Worth Avenue mansion in River Ranch.
Candysdirt.com reports that in July Moreno purchased the Larry Boerder-designed home of former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman, a home on Highland Drive that listed for $14 million. (Aikman, the site notes, has since gone on to purchase two Dallas mansions.)
The site reports that the local entrepreneur also made a run at the restaurant business last year, opening JoJo Eating House & Bar in Uptown Dallas. That venture, it seems, did not work out well for Moreno and his chef, Laurent Poupart (who had previously worked as Moreno's private chef).
The restaurant, brutally panned by Dallas food reviewer Leslie Brenner, shut down in June.
A divided 3rd Circuit Court of Appeal reversed a Lafayette district judge's ruling absolving the co-owner of a New Iberia accounting firm of liability in an embezzlement case.

"I am only getting a little nervous about two projects — the proposed Sasol GTL facility [not the new ethylene plant] and the proposed G2X facility — both in Lake Charles. They need a hefty difference between oil and natural gas prices to make sense."

Fastenal Company
) is set to report first quarter 2013 results before the opening
bell on Apr 10. Last quarter it posted in-line results. Let's see
how things are shaping up for this announcement.
Growth Factors this Past Quarter
Fastenal reported a 10% year-over-year increase in earnings
per share on the back of decent margin growth. The company
witnessed 8% year-over-year rise in revenues in the fourth
quarter 2012. However, both revenue and earnings declined
Fastenal's daily sales growth rates in the second, third and
fourth quarters of 2012 were lower than that of the first quarter
as well as year-ago comparable periods mainly due to weakness in
its fastener product line. Its fasteners product line has
suffered due to end market slowdown and broader economic
Daily sales to manufacturing customers (representing almost
50% of revenues) grew 9.7% in the fourth quarter, much below
growth rates of 21.0% in the prior-year quarter and 14.0% in the
preceding quarter.
Earnings Whispers?
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Fastenal is
likely to beat earnings this quarter. That is because a stock
needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP (Read:
Zacks Earnings ESP: A Better Method
) and a Zacks Rank of #1, 2 or 3 for this to happen. That is not
the case here as you will see below.
Negative Zacks ESP:
The stock has a negative ESP of -5.41%.
Zacks Rank #3 (Hold):
Fastenal's Zacks Rank #3 lowers the predictive power of ESP
because the Zacks #3 Rank when combined with a negative ESP makes
surprise prediction difficult. We caution against stocks with
Zacks Ranks #4 and #5 (Sell rated stocks) going into the earnings
announcement, especially when the company is seeing negative
estimate revisions momentum.
Other Stocks to Consider
With the overall housing market improving steadily, there are
many companies that are likely to beat earnings this quarter.
Here are some other companies you may want to consider as our
model shows they have the right combination of elements to post
an earnings beat this quarter:
Ryland Group Inc.
), Earnings ESP of + 10.00% and Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy)
The Home Depot, Inc.

|Cockney Rebel singles chronology
"Judy Teen" is a song by British rock band Cockney Rebel, fronted by Steve Harley. The song was released as a non-album single in 1974,[1] and became the band's first hit in the UK, although their previous and debut single "Sebastian" was a hit in continental Europe.[2] "Judy Teen" was written by Harley and produced by both Harley and Alan Parsons.[3]
The 1973 debut single "Sebastian" had become a big hit within Europe, particularly in countries such as The Netherlands and Belgium, but not in the UK. The band's debut album The Human Menagerie was released in November 1973 and suffered a similar fate in the UK, to which EMI felt that the group had yet to record a potential hit single. "Judy Teen" was written purposely as a single. Harley later recalled "When the first album came out, the record company said, 'We don't have a single.' And I said very arrogantly, 'I'll write one, I know how to do it.' That's exactly what I said and exactly what I did. Now I think - what an arrogant young man, fearless! "Judy Teen" was a boy/girl story, a teenage romance, a bit of sex in there, interesting drum rhythm, hooks all over the place - lo and behold big hit! It's a good sexy little teenage love story. When I wrote Judy Teen, I was 18 or 19 when I had the experience that that song came from."[2]
The song was not immediately issued as a single. EMI decided to hold the song back at the beginning of the year whilst "Sebastian" was re-issued on 25 January (originally due to be 11 January), as the third time being released as a single.[4][5] "Sebastian" did not become a UK hit, and did not make a chart appearance. When "Judy Teen" was released as a single, it became a Top Five hit in the UK, peaking at #5, and staying within the Top 100 for a total of eleven weeks.[6] It was also a hit in Europe too, peaking at #23 in Belgium and #26 in the Netherlands.[7][8] The Human Menagerie album, despite receiving wild reviews and curious sales, continued to exist as a cult album even after "Judy Teen" gave the band a hit single.[9] The song, upon release, was Johnnie Walker's Record Of The Week on BBC Radio One.
The single's success opened a wave of popularity for the group, which the band discovered on their UK tour of the time. In the New Musical Express magazine of 29 June 1974, an article on Cockney Rebel featured quotes taken from the band during their tour at the time. The bassist Paul Jeffreys remarked to violinist Jean-Paul Crocker and drummer Stuart Elliott over dinner about the audience reactions on the early stages of the current British tour. Crocker noted "The trouble with this tour has been the cock-up because of the single. It went into the charts a week before we started the tour, and it's going up and up and up. It's what? - number five this week. And if it gets any higher by the end of the tour - which is 42 dates - it's going to be a riot. We had riots, literally riots, every night last week. That's why Tony's here (the security guard). We did a gig in York and there were bottlefights - and we had a rough time of it in Newcastle. But when I came off at York I was in tears, because we'd never seen it before. It was the people in the front row who caused all the trouble - because they're the ones who knew the single."[10]
In 2012, the four disc definitive anthology Cavaliers: An Anthology 1973-1974 was released, combining the two Cockney Rebel albums The Human Menagerie and The Psychomodo, as well as two discs of demo and live versions. On the release, a previously unreleased early version of "Judy Teen" appeared on disc three.[11]
The single was released in the UK, Ireland, Belgium, Germany, Holland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Japan and Australia in March 1974, via 7" vinyl through EMI Records.[12][1] A UK promotional demo copy/DJ copy of the single was also released, which simply highlighted "Demo Records - Not for Resale" as the only difference from the main release.[13] All editions of the single featured the b-side "Spaced Out" which was written by Harley and produced by both Harley and Parsons as well. The b-side was exclusive to the single, and would later be included on a number of CD releases including the 2006 remastered three-disc box-set compilation The Cockney Rebel – A Steve Harley Anthology and the Cockney Rebel Cavaliers: An Anthology 1973-1974 from 2012.[14] Before that it did appear as a bonus track on the 1992 CD single issue of the band's 1975 UK number one single "Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)", and later on the 2000 EMI/Comeuppance Discs re-issue of Harley's 1978 album Hobo with a Grin.[15][16]
All releases of "Judy Teen", except in the UK and Ireland, included artwork, a full colour picture sleeve, which featured differing photographs of the band. The German sleeve was the only one not to feature the band on the front cover, but a close-up drawing of a females face.[17] Following the original release as a single, the song has appeared on the majority of Steve Harley/Cockney Rebel compilations.[18]
The song has consistently been part of Harley's set-list when performing live, remaining a popular part of the band's performances. Various live versions of the song have appeared on a number of official releases as a result. Versions appeared on the 1999 album Stripped to the Bare Bones, the 2001 album Unplugged and the 2004 live acoustic album Anytime! (A Live Set).[19][20][21] A professionally filmed live performance at Camden Palace in 1984 for the "Live from London" VHS release included the song, which was later issued on two different DVD versions.[22][23] On 24 November 2012, Harley performed live at the Birmingham Symphony Hall. The band, with the orchestra and chamber choir, made up about 50 performers together, and the band's first two albums were performed in their entirety - with some of the songs entirely new to the stage. "Judy Teen" was one of three additional tracks on the night, and this live version appears on the CD album, and DVD release Birmingham (Live with Orchestra & Choir).[24] Classic Rock magazine writer Geoff Barton reviewed the album and noted "The eclectic glam rock of 70s chart-busters "Judy Teen" and "Mr Soft" is reproduced with stunning accuracy."[25]
In April 1974, a promotional video was filmed for the single, featuring the band performing the song, with some shots using kaleidoscope effects.[26] The band also performed the song on Top of the Pops on 23 May 1974, and whilst small parts of this rare performance remain, the original, full video has been presumed lost by the BBC.[27]
On 14 April 1975, Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel performed the song as part of their set at the Hammersmith Odeon, and this concert was filmed and released as two films in cinemas; Between the Lines and Star Fighter.[28]

Critical reception[edit]
On 16 March 1974, writer Charles Shaar Murray reviewed the "Judy Teen" single for the UK New Musical Express magazine. He stated "There are those among our number who rate this little combo as being the elephant's jock-strap, but I've found their energetic posing and watery music singularly irritating. "Judy Teen" is another mincingly affected Roxy Music cop, but it could conceivably affect others differently. Don't let my world-weary cynicism put you off, kids. Those who have lived longest have borne most, as Arlo Guthrie once said. It is vaguely interesting to point out that this toon bears exactly the same intro as The Defranco Family's "Abracadabra", which proves absolutely nothing. What a senseless life of human waste."[29] In the Belgian Juke Box magazine of April 1974, an article on the band described the song: "Mix the rhythm of "Sweet Pea" (the Manfred Mann version) with a little bit of "Catch a Falling Star" and you get "Judy Teen", the next Cockney Rebel song."[30] In an article titled "The Pick Of My Pop" by writer Bob Hart from circa 1976, Hart described the single, along with the following hit "Mr. Soft" as "superb".[31] In 1977 Hart would later write another article on Harley for The Sun newspaper, where he noted that "Tune in to hits like "Mr. Soft" and "Judy Teen", and they still sound fresher than much of the music being pumped out in 1977."[32]
Donald A. Guarisco reviewed the song for Allmusic, where he stated "Most glam acts were either arty or purely commercial, but other groups were able to blend both styles to create singles that were as challenging as they were catchy. Steve Harley was able to straddle this balance and "Judy Teen" is a good example of this skill. The lyrics are a light-hearted tribute to "the queen of the scene" that mix gestures of praise (a recurring refrain is "she made us happy") with lyrical flights of fancy: "Seeking shelter, no helter-skelter's gonna betray you/Judy Teen, the queen of the scene, is coming to slay you." The music matches the lyrics' sense of fun by mixing swinging mid-tempo verses that create a waltz-like beat with a more up-tempo chorus that builds to an effervescent peak. Cockney Rebel's recording of "Judy Teen" wraps the song's plentiful hooks in some unique ear candy, anchoring the song with Stuart Elliott's steady yet inventive drum work from but dressing it up with Milton Reames-James' frilly keyboard riffs and some soaring electric violin riffs from Jean-Paul Crocker. The result was catchy enough for a wide audience but clever enough to snare in ambitious listeners with its wordplay. "Judy Teen" earned the group its first Top Ten hit and set a precedent for equally ambitious future singles like "Mr. Raffles (Man, It Was Mean)" and "(I Believe) Love's a Prima Donna."[33]
Guarisco would also mention the song in an Allmusic review of the 1987 compilation Greatest Hits. He noted "Of all the glam-rock acts to hit it big in England during the 1970s, Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel were second only to David Bowie himself in terms of artsy ambition. Tunes like "Judy Teen" and "Love's a Prima Donna" may have been poppy enough to sail into the English singles charts, but they also boasted unconventional instrumentation (no Cockney Rebel single ever featured an electric guitar) and poetic lyrics with lots of surreal, Bob Dylan-esque wordplay. The result was a string of intelligent yet catchy singles, all of which are compiled on this collection."[34] Additionally when reviewing the 1976 American compilation A Closer Look, Guarisco noted the album "omits some crucial hits like "Judy Teen."[35]
Allmusic reviewer Dave Thompson highlighted the song as an album standout by labeling it an AMG Pick Track on the 2000 Disky UK compilation Best of the 70's.[36] He also spoke of the song's b-side within a review of the 1983 compilation The Collection, where he stated "A 15-track compilation produced in the last days of vinyl, Collection was most notable, at least among serious fans, for the inclusion of "Spaced Out," one of Steve Harley's most characteristically brilliant compositions, yet one that had spent the past nine years languishing on a B-side (of "Judy Teen") alone."[37]
Reviewer George Starostin called the song a "catchy boppy single".[38] Carol Clerk of Classic Rock Magazine reviewed The Cockney Rebel – A Steve Harley Anthology compilation, and noted "Sebastian" was a brave first single with its choral and orchestral dramas, and while it flopped in Britain it was a success in Europe. Later favourites such as "Judy Teen" and "Mr Soft" were exquisitely crafted and arranged, and determinedly eccentric to boot."[39] Chris Roberts of Uncut Magazine, for the same compilation, wrote "Harley's ever-changing band slid perfectly into the post-Ziggy/Roxy slipstream, all mannered English vocals, florid lyrics and sexual-theatrical rock. Tricksy hits like "Judy Teen" and "Mr Soft" (riddled with inventive sonic punctuation, also violins) displayed arch wit."[40]

Friday October 3rd
With some of our team out training our colleagues in the world of wildlife enquiries Claire and I decided that we would use our time to brush up on our wildlife skill set. Having taken delivery of a fresh batch of owl pellets we set about dissecting them on Friday...at lunch time.
First we selected a pellet that we felt would have a good haul of bones and hopefully an intact skull having never actually dissected owl pellets before we chose a rather large one and set it to soak in water with some alcohol disinfectant. The pellet was produced by a barn owl. They are quite large and characteristically black in appearance often with a varnish like gloss when fresh.
They are also the best material for pellet studies as many are produced at the same site and the bones they produce are remarkably intact.
Having bought in my dissection kit and put on gloves that Claire had provided we set about pulling the soaked pellet apart. It was easy enough and the fur parted like meat that had been cooking for hours. Although the large white grub of a clothes moth was enough to put us of eating for the rest of the day.
We removed 3 skulls from one pellet as well as scapulars, jaw bones, ear capsules, what felt like thousands of rib bones and vertebrae.
Each dish was a soup of fur and bones, the fur lead us to expect mammal remains and we were right as we pulled the remains of three (Blind, after being eaten and regurgitated) mice.
On the dark blue card we arranged the bones and examined them under the lamp placing them into position and identifying them with the key. Feeling like we were in Wildlife silent witness or CSI RSPB we thoroughly enjoyed our day brushing up on our wildlife skills and I would encourage anyone to have a go as well.
Well, Hedge Pigs really. I hadn't seen hedgehogs in my garden for years, but this year I've had two or three adults visiting most nights. I had my suspicions when I kept noticing a very neat corner of the buggy nibbles I put out for the birds in the ground feeder tray had been eaten away. I've managed to watch them feeding a few times and found them mooching about in the garden too.
I've always considered my garden to be wildlife friendly, but I have been adding a few things and making a few changes to improve the habitat and hopefully increase the wildlife. I've left more parts of the garden to go wild by only cutting back new growth where it's in the way. This is an easy thing to do and it costs nothing, I've also been planting more wildlife friendly plants in order to encourage more insects into the garden. I've also installed a new nest box, the old one fell apart, which was used by a pair of Blue Tits a few weeks after putting it up.
Hedgehog - Ben Hall (rspb-images.com)
If you have hedgehogs in your garden, I thought I'd outline a few do's and don'ts and give you some pointers about their hibernation habits. It's long been thought that hedgehogs hibernate in the autumn and don't wake until the spring. We now know this isn't true. Depending on the weather hedgehogs will start hibernating around October time. This is why you need to be careful about bonfires on and around November 5th. The best advice is to build them on the day or go to an organised firework event. If the weather is mild the hedgehogs can wake periodically during the winter. However, it takes them a lot of energy to wake so they are likely to be hungry. A hedgehog needs to be about 600g in weight before hibernating, so if you find one in your garden which is a good size and is fit and healthy, leave it alone, it will hibernate when it's ready. A hedgehog will use 20% of its body weight to hibernate, so if you find one which is underweight and we have a cold winter, you'll need to find an animal welfare charity to care for it over the winter months. Now is a great time to put a 'hogitat' in your garden to give your hedgehogs somewhere safe to hibernate.
Food – Some dos and don'ts
If you find a hedgehog out in the open asleep in the winter, it needs help as it won't be hibernating. You need to pick it up and bring it indoors (gardening gloves are a good idea). Place the hedgehog on a towel on top of a hot water bottle and call the RSPCA on 0300 1234 999. You can also look on the Help Wildlife web site below to see if there is someone nearby who can help.
You can view the hogitats and hedgehog food we sell on the link below, where there is additional advice on where best to site your hogitat.
Summer is drawing to an end and the signs of change are all around us. If you have a pond in your garden, now is the time to take action and do a bit of pond maintenance, if needed! So, you've been marvelling at all the wildlife making the most of your pond, some are more easy to see than others, but there's a whole ecosystem going on in there. We often get asked how to encourage more birds into people's gardens. Supplying water is just as important as providing food, whether it's a shallow dish on the ground, a birdbath or a pond. Water will also encourage a whole host of other wildlife into your garden, so don't think it's only the birds and the fish that will benefit from all your labours.
The best time to do some pond maintenance is in late September and October. Tadpoles should have left the pond by now and other adult amphibians have not yet gone into hibernation. Avoid doing any pond maintenance in the winter as this will disturb hibernating amphibians and expose them to the cold.

If you want to create a wildlife pond or improve the one you have, there is more information on our website (see link below). You could also add a purpose built home to the edge of your pond to help the frogs and toads in your garden too (see links below).

10 Surprising Ways to Quench Your Thirst
Feeling the symptoms of dehydration? Rehydrate with these H20-enriched foods.
Not only is everyone's favorite summer fruit made up of 92% water, it's also a leading source of lycopene, an antioxidant that the Mayo Institute says may reduce a guy's risk of prostate cancer. Other health benefits include vitamin C, vitamin A, and vitamin B6. For an extra refreshing post-workout boost, cut it up into convenient cubes or scoop out balls using a melon ball scooper (trim off the rind to save space) and then sock it away in your freezer. You can either eat it frozen (it'll taste like a sweet slushie) or thaw it out slowly in the fridge overnight.

"Dreifach ist der Schritt der Zeit:
Z�gernd kommt die Zukunft hergezogen,
Pfeilschnell ist das Jetzt entflogen,
Ewig still steht die Vergangenheit."Arpeggio of Blue Steel (Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio) is a manga by Ark Performance, centering on humanity, having been pushed back from global warming raising the sea level, and their conflict with the Fleet of Fog, archaic-looking WWII-era ships who have been using Game Breaker weapons and armor to ensure that humans can't set keel or pontoon into the world's oceans without risking getting blown to smithereens. The world's navies banded together 17 years before the opening chapters of the manga and were utterly annihilated.Since then, Japan's fortunes have gone downhill in a huge way: Japan relied on importing and exporting for both raw materials and income for its economy; without either, the nation's industry has fallen quite far. In this rather bleak future is one shining ray of hope: Blue Steel, a bunch of ragtag misfits led by their captain, one Gunzou Chihaya. Having somehow acquired a Fog ship of their own, the Fog submarine I-401, only Chihaya and his crew can actually claim Fleet of Fog kills in battle.However, the I-401 and her crew have more enemies than just the Fleet of Fog: The Japanese government are very keen on getting their hands on what initially was their ship. Bureaucrats look at I-401 and drool. However, what nobody realized is that I-401, like many ships now in the Fleet of Fog, has a mind of her own, and a body to fit.An anime series sublined Ars Nova was aired during the Fall 2013 Anime season.The anime is streaming on Crunchyroll. Viewers living in the following areas may watch it legally there: North America, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, Scandinavia, South Africa, Central America, South America, Caribbean, Turkey, Italy, Austria, Germany, Lichtenstein, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Belgium, Poland, Denmark, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Romania.Compare to Kantai Collection, another series (with an upcoming anime to boot) that also features female personifications of World War 2 ships. The two franchises have collaborated on an in-game event for December 2013, which features characters from the Ars Nova anime assisting the girls from Kancolle against Kongou and Maya.

Hella folks.
I'm buying a heat shield for an 18 inch barrel express.
I've run across sad reviews regarding ATI brand and TACSTAR.
To be honest I'm not planning spending a lump sum of money for the accessory.
What would be my best choice.?

Why do you think you need one? On a pump you can't grab the barrel and pump anyway.
What could have happened... did.
The only time my barrel gets more than just warm is when shooting clays. In a hd scenario. You probably will shoot the fun a few times at most. Nothing that will make it hot. But it does look cool, just not something that is needed but if planning for the zombies, it wouldn't hurt.
Remington 870 12 Ga. Supermag
Springfield XDS .45acp
I don't know about you but after about 30 rounds I am ready to put my gun away. 15 with slugs. My gun was never hot. But if you feel like you need it, get it.
I kinda side with the guys who have asked why... I also have an 870 and I love it but I won't be slapping a heat shield on it because in my opinion it is added weight and added work when taking the gun apart and it is also less money I can spend on the ammo I SHOULD be running through it! I have been debated the addition of a sling of some sort but truth be told I will probably leave it exactly as I bought it.
A sling is useful. Helps support the gun. And the 870 is heavy compared to a 500 helped me bag my first buck. Thats the last thing my 12 needs. Is the sling kit and a sling. After that is the gg&g forend. Tactical yet practical.
