Maby this is a dumb question but does anyone here get Newtype??? What do u think of it.
Too expensive!!! I never buy them cause it's all online anyway. Then I bought one. Ack! Worst issue ever. It was Feb'2006 issue I do believe .. had the maniquin show thing on it. Aaaaghhhh! I hated it.
The art on the covers and inside is good. But I just don't buy them. Sorry I wasn't too helpful was I?
I flipped through one of them at Borders once... My friends and I came across a huge picture of Dark from DNAngel and all started squealing... People glared at us... So we left... And I have never picked up an issue since ^^;;
There subscriptio value is ridiculouse but i buy one very once in a awhile, they have some good posters.... every once in a awhile
They're good to have if you have money to spare. i've been buying it for almost three years now (except for the few months that the DVD's were takin out for some reason).
I ordered one issue. meh... it was alright..

Since 2001, Experimental Sound Studio has been commissioning composers and artists to create sound pieces for the Fern Room through its unique Florasonic sound installation series. This year, we are revisiting some of the past projects with a nine-month retrospective. Each month, you can hear a different artist's work enlivening the soundscape of the Fern Room.
Annie Feldmeier-Adams w/ Steven Hess:
Requiem (2010)
What you'll hear in the Fern Room is Requiem, a composition by Chicago artist Annie Feldmeier-Adams, with assistance from composer Steven Hess. The piece is an homage to a little known bit of the history of Lincoln Park: in the nineteenth century, this land was the city cemetery, but in subsequent years, many of the bodies were removed to new locations. This work was never completed, however, and the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 destroyed burial records and grave markers, so a number of bodies still lay under Lincoln Park to this day. Requiem is a tribute to those still buried. Its sparse and ephemeral sounds conjure a sense of absence, while its slow beat is like a pulse that continues unabated, reminding us that life—even in its most lush and fertile manifestations as we see in the Fern Room—is ultimately nourished by the death of organisms, and that each living thing passes on but nourishes future generations.
Exhibition hours:
Fern Room, Lincoln Park Conservatory
2391 N. Stockton Drive
Hal Rammel:
Calls and Songs (2005)
A composition based on the delicate textures of Hal's unique self-made wooden instruments.
Olivia Block:
Transgenesis (2003)
A synthesized interplay of the natural and the artificial.
Douglas Ewart:
Bira (2003)
A musical homage to Shona artists and their ancestors.
Shawn Decker:
Chorus (2006)
A playful interaction between real and synthetic insects.
Norman W. Long:
Electro-Acoustic Dubcology III (2009)
Remixing the sounds of the local neighborhood.
Steve Peters:
Index Filicum (2011)
A catalog of plants transformed for the ear.
Michael Zerang & Mazen Kerbaj:
Fifth Pythia of Deir el Qamar (2006)
An exploration of the inner mysteries of musical instruments.
Annie Feldmeier-Adams w/ Steven Hess:
Requiem (2010)
A memorial to Lincoln Park's former life as a cemetery.
Ernst Karel:
Fern Room (2001)
Imaginary friends for the crickets.
About Florasonic

Scarlett and Sean Make It Official at Reese's Wedding
If Reese Witherspoon was starring in a movie this weekend, it would've been titled 'Legally Married,' and by all accounts it was a smash hit. The 35-year-old beauty, who tied the knot with Jim Toth on Saturday, invited a parade of A-listers to watch her I do's, and two of them, Scarlett Johansson and date Sean Penn, darn near stole the show.
"Scarlett is Jim's client, but no one, including the bride, knew she would have turned up with Sean Penn," a friend of Scarlett's tells me. "Turning up at a wedding with your boyfriend is definitely a huge statement, especially that wedding. What it's doing is announcing to the whole of Hollywood that they are serious."
Reese and Jim wed in a private ceremony at Reese's ranch in Ojai, Calif., on Saturday with pre-wedding cocktail taking place before the 20-minute ceremony.
Reese wore a gown designed by Monique Lhuillier, and both her daughter and son with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe -- Ava, 11, and Deacon, 7 -- were part of the nuptials.
Also in attendance at the private wedding were Renee Zellweger, Tobey Maguire, Robert Downey Jr. and Alyssa Milano.
Sean, 50, and Scarlett, 26, were first spotted together earlier this year at a party in LA celebrating 'Black Swan.' They were then seen eating together in public with her legs draped over his lap. In early March, they jetted down to Mexico for a whirlwind daylong trip. Both are coming off unsuccessful marriages --to Ryan Reynolds and Robin Wright.
Both camps have stayed remarkably mum about the relationship, but there have been reports that "S-Squared" are next planning a trip to Haiti in the spring. The appearance at Reese and Jim's wedding appears to have been their official coming out to their Hollywood friends.
"Scarlett is head over heals in love with Sean," a friend of the actress tells me. "She normally tries to hide away from public attention, but when she's with Sean she doesn't care."

It is not so much the age difference but rather that Sean is a highly intelligent sophisticated man of the world. Scarlett really is not in his league intellectually. Kind of like Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller. Sean is a truly talented artist whereas Scarlett is more famous for her good looks. He will tire of her.. after all he was married to a truly beautiful gifted actress, Robin Wright and he obviously walked away from that.Over the years I have read articles that have stated that Sean Penn has a very bad temperment so look out when he directs his wrath at you Little Bo Peep (Scarlett):):)

Are we sure that's not some homeless guy that followed her into the wedding?

How pathetic. Those two together? I'm going to puke.
- Monday 28 MarchBy rcarol
Sean Penn is one of the (if not THE) ugliest men in show business--he makes me want to barf. And Scarlet is a total mess. When I saw her on the red carpet I thought she just rolled out of bed, and I hope she didn't pay anyone to style her hair! Also, I looked at the pictures of her home that she has up for sale and have to say that it looks like a home that a grandma lives in (no offense grandma). She needs to hire a professional home stager, or else start watching HGTV for some style tips. She's also very messy and I wonder how on earth those photos were allowed to be viewed. She just totally ruined every chance she had to sell that house.

Stu, who said anything about a 2 minute vow. I imagine their vows were personally written and music followed and lots of festivities. This couple is one of the few respectable ones. They will make it just fine.

( Sound of putrid vomiting...) Too bad for Scarlett. Now she will be forever labeled as a skanky dumb head case. If it was an older man you were looking for...how about....Bruce Boxleitner...he is single ( newly split from Melissa Gilbert) and far more respectable.. Scarlett, you are just plain dumb, and now, not really " All that."

Sean Penn ? What a sleazy creep. No morals, no values, no brains, politically crippled, socially inept, sexually stunted and hygiene-challenged. What's to like about this cretin?
- Monday 28 MarchBy Jennifer
There is nothing wrong with a 20 something age difference if they are in love. I've been married to my husband for 30 years and there is a 20 year diffence. Love is love. I don't think there should be a big problem with Sean bringing a date.
- Monday 28 March
Sean Penn looks like he lives under some bridge. I don't get the attraction.
Ha ha!!! Seriously! What a freaky looking dude! I know they pride themselves on being wacky, they can afford it, but do any of these people own a mirror??

Penn looks more like 70...acts more like 10. Good luck on that one, Ms Scarlett.
He looks like he just slept in the alley behind a dumpster. Oh. Wait a minute....................he DID!

Why in the world does this s**t matter to you losers. I can't believe you would have an opinion one way or the other about people who could care less what you think. You really need to get yourselves a life.

You have the advantage of discovering a world of individual gardens that are not apparent when you view the tiled facades of the buildings from the street. This increases this central Lisbon neighbourhood's character and charm. On street parking is available.
The Costa de Lisboa/Lisbon region
Lisbon is a city to visit all year round. With mild temperatures in winter and warm in summer. You'll also find an abundance of history and culture.
The highlights are:
- Monesteiro dos Jeronimos in Belem
- Alfama district / Castelo Sao Jorge
- No 28 Tram
- Graca and it's marvelous viewpoints.
- Nightlife in Bairro Alto , with its great bars, restaurants and clubs
- Riverside restaurants and clubs of Alcantara and Docas
- Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga and Museu Nacional do Azulejo
- Parque das Nacoes with Europe's largest Oceanarium and other family-friendly entertainment .
Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and is on the Atlantic coast. It lies on the steep hills on the north bank of the river Tagus (Rio Tejo). Its proximity to the coast makes it an ideal choice for both sightseeing and sunbathing.
There are many wonderful areas outside Lisbon that are easy to get to and make a lovely day trip, such as Estoril and Cascais, Costa de Caparica including Arrabida and Setubal, Sintra and Mafra and the wine area of Colares.
Within walking distance from the apartment you have the Feira da Ladra, Alfama, Graca and The Castle .
10 mins walk to the metro Santa Apolonia where you can catch the train to Sintra to visit it's wonderful palaces or Setubal to eat the freshest fish and seafood. Should you want to visit Lisbon's beaches, catch the train at Cais de Sodre and get off at one of the many beaches along the Cascais line (journey approx 35 minutes).
June is a great time to visit if you want to experience the Festival of Santo Antonio when the Alfama doesn't sleep but you can!

"Nice stay"
My wife and I travelled with our 2 kids, aged 6 and 4. With kids of that age it was a bit challenging to discover Lisbon. We had to walk a lot, and the kids were tired.
But as soon as we were back to the flat they were feeling good again, like being at home.
They were playing at the very nice terrace at the back.
For them it was like paradise.
That terrace made a big difference with other places !
At the end, i would easily recommend this flat. Nothing to complain about really.
small shops, restaurants, and tube are not far away.
We had a nice stay.
Glad you enjoyed yourselves.

"Lovely apartment, good location"
We all had a lovely holiday staying at Fiona's apartment. It was great to have the garden area as well. The kids especially enjoyed the hammock! There are local shops to get your groceries and the metro station is only a 5 minute walk away. Will definitely go back.
Thank you for your comments and glad you enjoyed your stay.

"Traditional area, great views from the garden, away from tourist areas but within easy reach."
Enjoyed our trip to Lisbon and found the apartment in a a traditional area quiet and welcoming. Found our way from the apartment easily - up or downhill to access metro/bus and No 28 tram. Garden was a bonus with great views and hammock for relaxing. Didn't eat outside, but imagine it would be amazing for alfresco dining in warmer months. Enjoyed relaxing in the living room where kids watched DVD after a long day sightseeing. Dining/kitchen area very spacious and well equipped. Everything you need close by, local shops, supermarket, cafes and restaurants.
Glad you enjoyed yourselves.

"A comfortable stay away from the tourist crowds."
Fiona's apartment offers space and homeliness for Lisbon visitors who want to stay just outside the touristy areas - close enough to public transport and far enough to feel like a local! Due to wet weather we could not make use of the garden but this would be a definite bonus on a hot summers night. Our 5-year old had a great time watching the world go by from the balcony and the kids' bunker bed is a definite winner! In all good value for your money.
So pleased you enjoyed your time in Lisbon. Next time I hope you get a bit more sun to enjoy the garden. June is a great time with all the parties of Santo Antonio. Thanks again.

"A great flat with wonderful views over the Tage from the secret garden"
From the outside the building looks like many others in Graça area, but once inside you realise why the flat is so highly rated. There are nice views from the balconies at the front of the building but what really makes the flat special is the 'secret' garden leading off the kitchen/breakfast room at the back. From here there are wonderful views over the Tage and the sorrounding rooftops. The garden is ideal for snacks/meals or even for just dozing ih the hamac! The flat is also very well-equipped and clean. I really can't imagine anything better.
We already knew Lisbon quite well and didn't really need help, but Fiona's neighbour downstairs is on hand for advice if need be.
Although the actual building has a lift it's half-way up a steep street so is perhaps not very adapted for the elderly or those with walking diffiuclties. However it's easy to find a taxi. Ohterwise the metro or bus/tramway is about a ten minute walk .
There are lots of little shops and typical cafés and bars to discover in this less tourisity areas. All in all, a great find
I'm so glad you enjoyed your holiday. You're making me have "saudades" talking about the garden and the hammock.

"excellent and quiet apartment with greta view on the river Taag in non-tourist area; ideal to discover Lisbon"
The apartment is an excellent starting point to discover Lisbon. The apartment is quiet, comfortable and the large garden/terrace has a great view on the river, and is a great place to read, dine and wine. The location is perfect for those who (like us) do not like a poshy neighborhood or who prefer to stay outside areas which are tourist traps. Area is a local community, with many small shops. Transport (metro, tram, etc.) is nearby. Taxi's (cheap in Lisbon) are always around and available. Some historical districts are within walking distance. One point of attention.

According to rock n' roll lore, age 27 is a fateful milestone. From Robert Johnson, Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison to Kurt Cobain, all stars we lost at this very age.
World famous rock star Spyder (Kevin Zegers -Transamerica, Frozen) has achieved fame and fortune with a smash hit debut album. This blinding success however, is built on the Faustian pact that capitalized on the genius of his long lost childhood best friend and band mate, Eric Genson (Jason Ritter - NBC's The Event, Good Dick). Now Spyder retreats to his small hometown after his sophomore effort flops. Reconnecting with Eric after a seven year estrangement, the two recall their youthful ambitions and reexamine the choices they've made. Accompanied by the band's ambitious, fiery manager (Taryn Manning - ABC's Hawaii 5-0, Hustle & Flow, 8 Mile), the legendary music impresario August West (Peter Fonda - Easy Rider, 3:10 to Yuma) and a raucous crew of musicians, they set off on a cathartic journey along historic Route 66 that brings them closer to each other, their history and their destiny. Fueled by a stellar rock n' roll soundtrack that includes songs by Nirvana, Bob Dylan, Iggy & The Stooges, Alice in Chains, Muddy Waters, The Violent Femmes, Howlin' Wolf, Jane's Addiction, and many more, The Perfect Age of Rock N' Roll fully captures the energy, rebellion, and thrills of the rock n' roll lifestyle.
Take a first look at a new show.
This season, Chuck is in luck: The government's new Intersect II is ready for espionage service. And that means the old Intersect (Chuck) can go back to his old life. But if Chuck goes, he's gone: Casey has orders to off him. In this series, named one of Time's 10 Best of 2008, Chuck survives to battle perilous plots, enemy agents and Buy More's obnoxious new assistant manager, Emmett Milbarge (recurring guest star Tony Hale, Arrested Development), in the comedy- and action-packed Season Two. Here's some of what's up: Sarah's past is revealed, Morgan almost becomes mature, and Captain Awesome and Ellie plan the Big Day. Plus our unlikely hero rockets into more nonstop butt-kicking, techno-gadgeting, Chuck-dangling-several-stories-above-the-pavement action, as long as no one needs help setting up e-mail!
No more Mr. Nice Spy! Chuck is back and he's the Chuck you know: the hapless Nerd Herder hopelessly devoted to sexy super spy Sarah. And he's the Chuck you don't know: a master martial artist whose brain is locked and loaded with the new Intersect 2.0. How the two Chucks clash, bash and (sometimes) cooperate makes Season Three total, action-packed fun. More new stuff: A dashing rival (Brandon Routh) joins the team, someone from Chuck's Buy More life discovers his secret and Chuck learns the spy biz can turn the nicest guy dark and dangerous. "For the last two years, we've protected Chuck from the world," the General notes. "But now we have to protect the world from Chuck."

Leapin' lizards! V's March 15 season finale will kill off up to one-third of its cast! With only central characters Anna (Morena Baccarin) and Erica (Elizabeth Mitchell) safe, executive producer Scott Rosenbaum says two or "possibly even three" of the following actors have been let go: Scott Wolf (Chad), Logan Huffman (Tyler), Morris Chestnut (Ryan), Joel Gretsch (Father Jack), Laura Vandervoort (Lisa) and Jane Badler (Diana). Hoping the bold move will get him a third-season renewal from ABC, Rosenbaum says he chose his victims based on "what would be most devastating for the characters I want to continue."
When ABC's V returns for its second season, the days of sitting around waiting for the Visitors to get the upper hand are over. Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell) and the ragtag group of resistance fighters called the Fifth Column are on the offensive.
Season 1 followed FBI agent Evans, often the moral compass of the Fifth Column. The group, however, was small, and their journey was slow and arduous. Because of the ethical lines Erica refused to cross, she often kept the group from waging the war that should've begun in Season1.
Jane Badler returns to V as a new, "more mature" Diana

Now that Apple AAPL 1.8502618700094444% Apple Inc.

Either move could help Apple shares, which tumbled 12%, to near $440, last week, 38% below their record high of $705, hit in early September. Apple is the S&P 500's biggest percentage loser this year.
Apple (ticker: AAPL) looks cheap, despite analysts' profit-estimate cuts for its 2013 fiscal year, ending in September. The cuts are based on disappointing current-quarter financial guidance suggesting earnings of $9 to $10 a share, well below prior consensus expectations of $11.78 and last year's $12.30. The tech leader fetches almost 10 times projected fiscal-year earnings of $45 a share. Before the earnings release the consensus estimate was near $49.
CEO Tim Cook is watching Apple's cash pile grow, up $16 billion in the most recent quarter alone. Noah Berger/Bloomberg News
Apple's P/E is just seven, when the company's $137 billion, or nearly $145 a share, of cash is worked into the equation. Cash, which rose by $16 billion in the quarter, accounts for more than 30% of Apple's stock-market value.
That cash keeps climbing because earnings way exceed Apple's modest dividends and buybacks. Apple initiated a $2.65-a-share quarterly payout last March, which now equates to a 2.4% dividend yield. It finally started buybacks in the quarter, repurchasing $2 billion worth of stock.
Only in the technology sector do companies hold so much cash, and Apple is the champ, with more than twice as much as No. 2 Microsoft MSFT -0.8128386827844936% Microsoft Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD47.59 -0.39 -0.8128386827844936% /Date(1416866400162-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 33956059 AFTER HOURS USD47.6 0.01 0.02101281781886951% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1478186 P/E Ratio 18.44573643410853 Market Cap 395492061050.94 Dividend Yield 2.605589409539819% Rev. per Employee 714094 More quote details and news » (MSFT). Tech outfits view cash as a security blanket, and Apple's struggles in the 1990s have made it especially conservative. The cash could hit $200 a share or more by the end of its fiscal 2014. Investors don't give Apple full credit for it, however, partly because they doubt they will ever get it.
"There's a strong belief among investors that a higher return of cash is warranted," says Toni Sacconaghi, a technology analyst at Bernstein. He argues that Apple should "significantly increase the dividend" to 3% or more. "The real magic number is 4%," which would mean an annual dividend of about $18 a share, which could boost the stock by attracting income investors. Such a payout would equal roughly 40% of Apple's projected 2013 earnings, versus 25% now. A 40% payout ratio would be in line with those of many other big companies, including Pfizer PFE -0.7553366174055829% Pfizer Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD30.22 -0.23 -0.7553366174055829% /Date(1416866511759-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 29130578 AFTER HOURS USD30.23 0.01 0.03309066843150232% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3621997 P/E Ratio 18.462854349951122 Market Cap 191855017355.848 Dividend Yield 3.4414295168762408% Rev. per Employee 644080 More quote details and news » (PFE) and General Electric GE 0.037050759540570584% General Electric Co.

One sticking point: Apple generates an estimated 30% of its profits in the U.S. A 40% payout ratio would require it to repatriate foreign earnings and pay taxes on them, dip into its domestic cash reserves of $43 billion–the other $94 billion is overseas–or sell debt. Sacconaghi says Apple should consider selling $50 billion of debt—enough to repurchase more than 10% of its 947 million outstanding shares or double its dividend for five years. Apple's debt cost would be low, at under 2%, for a combination of 5-year and 10-year bonds. Most other major techs carry debt. Microsoft has $14 billion, against $68 billion in cash and marketable securities.
Apple was noncommittal on dividend and buyback increases in its earnings conference call Wednesday. Said CFO Peter Oppenheimer: "We do consider increasing these programs, and we'll do what we think is in the best interests of shareholders." He pointed out that Apple is committed to returning $45 billion to holders over the next three fiscal years. That's not a lot, however, for a company earning more than $40 billion annually.
The Bottom Line
To lift its stock, Apple will have to be more shareholder-friendly. A big dividend hike would be best, says analyst Toni Sacconaghi, because it would provide an ongoing benefit.

There are legitimate concerns about Apple. For one, it may have lost smartphone market share in the December quarter, and profits in this fiscal year may be flat with last year's $44.15 a share. But there are promising developments, too, including possible new products, such as much-discussed Apple TV and a lower-priced iPhone that might draw new customers. Says David Rolfe, chief investment officer of Wedgewood Partners, a Missouri investment firm that holds the stock: "Apple is a broken growth stock, but it's not a broken growth company."
Still, broken growth stocks tend to trade at low valuations. When Apple was the world's biggest growth story, dividends didn't matter. Now they do.
Getting Little Respect
Despite still having strong earnings, tons of cash, and a reputation for innovation, Apple trades at a lower valuation than a number of other big technology companies.

The Report by George Binoy in Townsville
August 19, 2012
South Africa 244 (Coetzee 67, de Bruyn 54, Topley 3-45) beat England 141 (Davies 54, Foakes 54, Subrayen 4-24) by 103runs
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
Related Links
Players/Officials: Prenelan Subrayen
Series/Tournaments: ICC Under-19 World Cup
Teams: England | South Africa
South Africa knocked England out of the Under-19 World Cup by overcoming some significant challenges to seal a comprehensive victory: they were playing their first game in Townsville whereas England had prior knowledge of the conditions, and they were sent in to bat when it was hardest. Their batting unit, however, survived the new-ball examination to compile a competitive score through determined accumulation rather than flashy strokeplay.
Defending 244, South Africa's bowling unit did not let their disciplines slip, even though England had a century partnership for the second wicket and were thebetter-placed side after 25 overs. From 102 for 1, offspinner Prenelan Subrayen triggered a collapse that brought nine wickets for 39 runs. Two England batsmen accounted for 108 runs, extras for seven more, and they were dismissed for 141 in the 41st over.
Townsville finally ran out of sunshine and there was an even cover of high cloud as Quinton de Kock and Chad Bowes took guard against Reece Topley and Jamie Overton. De Kock took most of the early strike before chasing at a wide ball from Jamie Overton and edging behind. Bowes was more fluent, moving forward to punch the fast bowlers and flicking through and over square leg whenever the ball was on his pads.
Bowes and Gihahn Cloete steered South Africa past the new-ball danger and built a platform for the rest of the innings. They added 65 before both were dismissed in successive overs, in the 18th and 19th.
At 82 for 3, Murray Coetzee and Theunis de Bruyn, two batsmen from Pretoria, were faced with a tricky situation but they fought through it. Coetzee, however, was lucky to survive an edge against Craig Overton in the 20th over, when Ben Foakes dived to his left but couldn't hold on. That drop came while a convoy of numerous trucks were passing the Tony Ireland Stadium, with their horns blaring.
Their partnership for the fourth wicket was worth 96 when de Bruyn was bowled for 54. South Africa were well placed for 270 when Coetzee and Shaylin Pillay were milking singles and finding the boundary but lost direction in the end. Pillay attempted a scoop that landed in the keeper's hands and South Africa were eventually dismissed for 244 off the final ball.
Their defence began on a promising note when Lizaad Williams bowled Daniel Bell-Drummond, who's had a poor tournament, off the inside edge and celebrated in a manner similar to Shahid Afridi. He would celebrate like that once again, while England were imploding later in the innings.
Ben Foakes and Alex Davies, however, gave England a superb chance. Their 100-run partnership was slow, but with nine wickets in hand, an asking rate of just over six for around 25 overs should not have been a problem. Foakes, however, was dismissed for 54 by Subrayen just when he had begun to accelerate. Jamie Overton was promoted ahead of his more accomplished twin to bring down the required rate but scored only four runs. He too fell to Subrayen. England were suddenly 112 for 3.
Calvin Savage, who didn't take a wicket until the end, created pressure through economical overs, and when he did pick up the eighth England wicket, his emotion was reminiscent of Dale Steyn's.
Only Davies, who was also out for 54, and Foakes made it to double figures for England. South Africa's pressure in the field was relentless and their encouraging shouts to each other in the field grew louder with each step towards the next round of the Under-19 World Cup.

- Prices don't mean you'll be wowedOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 12/28/2011The food was high quality and generous in proportion, but not memorable. For this price, we'd rightfully expected more wow factor. We would spend our money elsewhere for that reason alone. The restaurant is attractive, well located, and obviously popular. Note that smoking is permitted outdoors and in Mexico it's still socially acceptable to smoke while you eat an expensive meal, so if you don't like that kind of experience, as for an indoor table.Special Features:

Greatest Game Hero: Ryu
The hero of the Street Fighter series brings his mighty dragon punch to bear in the All-Time Greatest Game Hero competition.
He's not a hero. He's just a man that likes to punch things.
in marvel vs camcom was great
Ryu is all my childhood. Shin ... ShoRyuKen !!!
Ryu is my favorite Hero
some on fight me Online Games
gogoshel e marfa jocul!!!
The answer lies in the heart of battle
ryu=UBER PWNAGE
ryu owns every character in any fighting gamed!!!!
Ryu is a beast
the best
ryu is awesome ;)
awesome.....ryu's d best.....
Ken always kicked Ryu's ass.
Two words says it all "Hado Ken" "Ryu" means dragon is Japanese if you didn't already know that... -NST
ryu is the bomb
yes ryu kicks ass
Sucks dat Ryu lost, hoped he would get really far as in finals.
ryu...is good
oh yeah and his theme song kicks ass
The best fighting icon in this dam world Ryu the wandering warrior Hadoken!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I vote for Ryu!
i think the competition is a bit of a joke... can you really compare things like Manny Calavera to Pac-Man? You can't compare a character with story and history to an icon. The competition should have been "Best Game Icon" - makes more sense.
gamespot should put all time greatest game villain next time
also my other favorite heroes of all time Street Fighter Ryu he kicked gouki's ass, he kicked m. bison's ass once until gouki/ akuma kicked his ass for him and gouki wants revenge on Ruy, but Ryu kicked his ass
[This message was deleted at the request of the original poster]
ryu is in my top 3 but Leon S. Kennedy rules!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice montage, they even managed to get in some puzzle fighter :P
aww to bad they didn't toss in a retro clip from the very first Street Fighter.
EPIC video

Posted internally- was called same day to discuss that they would not offer relocation. I was fine with that. Was scheduled an interview with the hiring manager the following week. I was provided a timeframe for a response. Was called later during the timeframe to confirm I could move. No decision was made, was called the following week and asked if I was certain I could relocate at my own expense and no decision was made. Another week went by and they said they needed more time. At this point I gave up. Wound up getting a blanket rejection email. I have never experienced anything like this and to say I am disappointed with the process is an understatement.

Louisiana Supreme Court Upholds Seizure of Motorist Cash
Louisiana Supreme Court satisfied that vague evidence suffices to confiscate money from motorists.
Drivers in Louisiana unable to document the source of every dollar they carry could find their money seized by police. The state Supreme Court yesterday ruled officers were right to grab $144,320 from motorist Tina Beers because, in the high court's opinion, she was unable to come up with a credible explanation of where the funds came from.
On January 10, 2009, State Trooper Dupuis pulled over Beers' 1995 Plymouth Voyager minivan on Interstate 10 in St. Martin Parish. Beers traveling with her three children aged between two and seven. The court record no longer preserves the cause of the original traffic stop because Dupuis quickly lost interest once he obtained permission to search the vehicle. The trooper found nine bundles of cash in compartment on the minivan floor. Dupuis knew his department might be able to keep the money, so he called in a drug dog to alert on the bundles of cash.
The state police did keep the money, but there were no drugs in the minivan nor did prosecutors ever find a criminal charge to lodge against Beers. Police believed Beers was acting as a courier for drug dealers, but they never proved it. Instead, it was up to Beers to prove the money was legitimate. Initially, she claimed the money was not hers. This changed several days later when Beers and her sister each filed claims showing, at best, the motorist had about $23,000 in cash at one point and claiming the money should not have been seized.
Beers almost won, as the Court of Appeal ruled there was no probable cause for the forfeiture, something prosecutors had the burden of proving. The judges found suspicion to think the money was of "less than honest origin" but not a shred of evidence that it had anything to do with drugs. The court ordered the money returned to Beers, but the high court stepped in to prevent that from happening. The top court found vague, circumstantial evidence did link the cash to drug crime.
"Here, the state is not seeking to show probable cause for a search or arrest, but probable cause for forfeiture of suspected drug-related property under the act," Chief Justice Catherine D. "Kitty" Kimball wrote for the court. "In his affidavit, Trooper Mire testified the money was bundled with rubber bands, sealed in plastic shrink wrapping, and hidden in the vehicle's floor compartment. He stated based on his experience, such packaging indicates a 'substantial connection between the questionable currency and narcotics transactions.' The claimants presented no evidence to contradict these statements made by Trooper Mire in his affidavit."
The high court also rejected the appellate court's argument that 96 percent of cash in circulation may contain narcotic residue, rendering the drug dog's alert meaningless.
"Even if the claimants had shown a large percentage of currency in circulation contains trace amounts of narcotic residue, they did not show these trace amounts of narcotics would cause a trained police dog to alert," Justice Kimball wrote.
These facts, combined with the "nervous" demeanor of Beers is all it takes to confiscate money, in the state Supreme Court's view.
"Considered individually, the facts set forth in Trooper Mire's affidavit might not amount to probable cause for forfeiture," Justice Kimball concluded. "However, when viewed together, the totality of circumstances establishes reasonable ground to believe the money is connected to drug trafficking and, therefore, subject to forfeiture under the act."

Just spent two hours getting a jump on next spring's garden. I raked up 6 big bags full of white pine needles from my next door neighbor's front lawn. The pink ties are to remind me six months from now which bags have needles and which have leaf mulch.
Tomorrow I'll rake the space between our two driveways which should yield at least one more bag. Then I will gather up pine needles from the neighbors who live behind us. I use the pine needles on a number of garden paths. They are soft and quiet to walk on and give shady spots a true woodland garden feel. And I feel so virtuous when I can gather them for free!

Les Ciseaux staying on Circle
Date: September 19, 2012
by: Observer Staff
There's a salon on St. Armands that's up for sale, but it isn't Les Ciseaux Luxury Hair Salon and Spa.
"We've had a lot of phone calls asking if it is us," said owner Angela Johnston.
Johnston wants to get the message out that Les Ciseaux, founded in 1986, isn't going anywhere.
The salon will be waiting for customers at its same old spot at 6 N. Blvd. of Presidents, and the staff is eager to pamper customers with the latest trends they learned on a recent trip to Soho, N.Y.
What will fall bring?
"Basically, it's back to the '80s," Johnston said. "Twists of the '80s but with a more sophisticated touch."
Another trend: ombre, in which color fades down from the roots and is lighter on the ends, is also hot for fall.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
NDP says feds' cuts to band constables threaten safety
The Manitoba government says a federal plan to stop funding band constables in 31 First Nations threatens public safety in those communities.
The province and the communities were given notice in early January that Ottawa would cease funding band constables as of March 31, 2015. The program has operated since 1969.
Justice Minister Andrew Swan said First Nations leaders he's spoken to are "very concerned" about the move.
He spoke to a resolution, unanimously endorsed by NDP members attending the party's annual general meeting on Sunday, calling upon the federal government to reverse the decision.
Swan said the move will effectively end "front-line policing" in many remote First Nation communities.
He said Ottawa has discussed the possibility of providing the province with the equivalent funding — $1.7 million a year — to purchase police services, but the solution has several drawbacks.
The province would only be able to hire the equivalent of about 15 Mounties with the money and, with round the clock shifts, that means there would be four additional officers on duty at any one time.
As well, band constables work under federal legislation that allows them to enforce band bylaws — an area that is out of provincial jurisdiction.
"You tell me how four officers on patrol are going to provide public safety to 31 First Nations across Manitoba including... remote first nations that are not connected to a road network," Swan told the more than 400 party members attending the convention at the Canad Inns Polo Park in Winnipeg.
"The Conservative government tells us they're about law and order. They may be about law but they're certainly not about order," he said to the crowd.
The three-day provincial NDP annual general meeting wrapped up during the noon hour, with closing remarks by Premier Greg Selinger.
He said he has "drawn strength" from the energy of delegates and pronounced that the party was "unified."
While there had been speculation that the premier's decision to bounce former cabinet minister and Riel MLA Christine Melnick from his caucus may create dissension within the party's rank and file, there was little evidence of that at the weekend event.
Selinger received several loud ovations and, by all appearances, it was business as usual.
"I heard a real desire to make sure we're focused on things that make a difference in Manitoba – a steadily growing economy, good jobs, quality health care, making sure the infrastructure is being built in this province," Selinger said. "Those are the kind of debates we had and I thought they were very productive."
The NDP also unveiled a new television attack ad that will air during the Olympic Games which portrays Conservative Leader Brian Pallister as a reckless cost-cutter.

she danced to the Beatles
and to the King
to Elton John
and to Queen
she danced to Dylan
and Hendrix too
if she didn't dance
she would be blue
her heart had rhythm
she could dance to any melody
the moment music played
her soul would ride free
music notes
danced around in her head
she even danced
on top of her bed
dancing all alone
in the moonlight
tickled her spirit
was her delight
Shades of a Woman Series..#17
I did the sketch..my son, Frank, the Photoshop
Too cool sister girl! Awesome colors.
I can so relate to this Sally! Brilliant as always! Instant fav!
Dancin' with you Sally ;) xoxox ♥
Aww love this sweetheART dancin' shoez R on lol! ;} happy hippy hugglez
this is nice like the art with it too :)
such the colour-filled fun dance Sally!
I love the art. The sketch is great and the colors. Oh, and the details with the music letters around it. You could literally see the picture dancing. Now, the poem. That was great and fun. I think you were describing me. You could put any music (except classical, uggg, too depressing) and I'll dance to it. Reggae, hip hop, disco, ballads (tried the flamingo, but not too good at that, but tried it and it was fun trying) salsa, merengue, (oh no break dancing, I'll break something and no more spare parts for me) even though I will have to take a pain killer next day. Now, I'm not saying I'm an expert, but my arthritic bones will start moving with the music. Had fun with this one. Put a big smile on my lips.
I don't know if I told you, but I have a big bug in my p.c. so if I don't get back to you for a while, it's that I'm having it fixed. Iris
Sally, I said flamenco, but meant the tango. Now that is hard. lol
love it

Daily Deal: Rachel Zoe's Piperlime Picks
Every morning I wake up to an inbox overloaded with special offers, deals, flash sales and hot items. So why not let me do the work for you? I have looked through them all to pick the deal you just can't miss! Whether it's an on trend item, a fantastic sale or a classic staple piece, rest assured I will give you the daily deal worth buying.
Piperlime is having up to 60% off with an extra 20% off fall/winter items and then they are also offering (as final sale) items up to 70% with an extra 30% off! Crazy, right? I love the selection at Piperlime because of the wide variety of designers and price points. But I also love Rachel Zoe's picks and seeing which items within the range of designers she likes.
The items on sale are definitely on the pricer side - Marc by Marc Jacobs, Parker, Rebecca Taylor - but they are fantastic deals for some really special pieces. Some of my favorites are the yellow Milly cross body purse and the Parker sequined blazer. On the less expensive end of the spectrum are the Free People skirt and DV by Dolce Vita flats.
