Jyoti Basu, Indian Politician
Jyoti Basu was one of the foremost Communist leaders in India. he remained the longest serving Chief Minister of West Bengal.
Belonging to the Communist Party of India, Jyoti Basu`s faith in communist ideology was unfathomable and he had dedicated his life in keeping his commitment to serve the proletariat. Jyoti Basu was born on July 8, 1914 and was a Communist politician from West Bengal, India. Jyoti Basu had been the Chief Minister of West Bengal from 1977 to 2000. He was India`s longest-serving Chief Minister and a member of the CPI (M) Polit Bureau ever since the party`s foundation in 1964 until 2008.
Jyoti Basu was born into an upper middle-class Bengali family in
. His father Nishikanta Basu was a doctor. His hometown was the village of Barodi in Dhaka District, East Bengal (now in Bangladesh). Educated at St. Xavier`s Collegiate School, the young Jyoti Basu enrolled in Presidency College with English Honours in 1935. Later he travelled to the United Kingdom to study law. It was in UK that he joined the Communist Party of Great Britain. He was introduced to the party by Bhupesh Gupta. After qualifying for the Bar, he became a whole-timer in the Communist Party of India and finally returned to India in 1940. In 1944 Basu started to take interest in trade union activities. CPI appointed him to work with the railway laborers. When B.N. Railway Workers Union and B.D. Rail Road Workers Union combined, Basu was appointed as the general secretary of the union.
Jyoti Basu was elected to the Bengal Legislative Assembly in 1946 after contesting in the Railway constituency. When the Communist Party of India divided in 1964, Jyoti Basu became one of the first nine members of the Polit Bureau. This bureau belonged to the newly formed Communist Party of India (Marxist). In 1967 and 1969, Jyoti Basu became Deputy Chief Minister of West Bengal in the United Front governments.
Jyoti Basu served as the Chief Minister of West Bengal for the Left Front government between June 21, 1977 and November 6, 2000. He was truly a mass leader. In 1996 Jyoti Basu was sure to be the consensus leader of the United Front for the position of Prime Minister of India. However, the CPI(M) politburo took a decision not to participate in the government. H.D. Deve Gowda from the Janata Dal instead became Prime Minister.
Jyoti Basu resigned from the position of the Chief Minister of West Bengal in 2000 due to health reasons and was succeeded by Buddhadeb Bhattacharya. Till date, Jyoti Basu holds the record for the longest-serving Chief Minister in Indian political history. The 18th congress of CPI(M), held in Delhi in 2005 again elected Basu to its Polit Bureau, although he was allowed to retire from it. General Secretary Prakash Karat said that the party expected him to continue until its 2008 congress, at which point they would reconsider his retirement. At the 19th congress in early April 2008, Jyoti Basu was not integrated into the Polit Bureau, although he remained a member of the Central Committee and was elected as Special Invitee to the Politburo.
On 1st January 2010, an ailing Jyoti Basu was admitted to the AMRI hospital in Salt Lake, Kolkata. He was diagnosed with pneumonia and finally on 17th January 2010, he died of multiple organ failure. Jyoti Basu had donated his eyes and his body for medical research to the SSKM hospital in Kolkata.

A Spouse's Survival Guide to Terminal Illness is Revealed in JOURNEY OF MY HEART
"In sickness and in health," are familiar words, but few spouses really expect to have that oath tested. Mary Ann Sheveland is one of those few, having cared for her husband during his battle with the coronary artery disease that ultimately claimed him.
In her memoir "Journey of My Heart" (published by iUniverse), Sheveland reveals the shattering impact of terminal illness on her family and how she forged a path from grief to recovery by finding happiness and her identity again after years of sacrifice and heartbreak.
Spanning nearly two decades, "Journey of My Heart" chronicles Sheveland's experiences as a caretaker to her husband, who suffered from a degenerative heart condition. It not only discusses the intimate details the disease's effect on Sheveland's relationships, finances and wellbeing, but also depicts her fight to "step outside the box to find happiness," she says. "It shows people how to more than just live, but how to make the absolute best of a raw deal."
Sheveland was moved to write the book after discovering many books on the subject of terminal illness are purely clinical and did not address the myriad feelings she was unable to process.
"I want the reader to know that they are not alone when facing a terminal health crisis; others have come down a similar road," she says. "With love, faith and by working together they can share an incredible amount of happiness in the time they have together."
"Journey of My Heart" is not only a story of love, determination and emotional courage; it's a message to anyone struggling with the terminal illness of a loved one: there are resources available; there is hope in the end.
Journey of My Heart
By Mary Ann Sheveland
Softcover, retail price: $18.95
Hardcover, retail price: $28.95
E-book price: $3.99
About the Author
Sheveland grew up in Brownwood, Texas. Since her husband's death, she has written several books, including, "The Pioneers," "Children's Short Stories," "Reflections," and a book of poetry, along with her recently published, "Journey of My Heart."

The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bow. ~Ezra Pound
Gildar Gallery is pleased to present (Missing) Persons, a group exhibition running from November 20 to December 27, 2014 featuring contemporary works exploring the partial absence and emergence of the figure. Through a diversity of conceptual aims, media and physical approaches such as erasure, omission and concealment, each artist shares a common interest in the alchemy of artistic processes to both dissolve and conjure a body in plain site. As in Ezra Pound's seminal modernist poem, "In a Station of the Metro", the works in (Missing) Persons approach the edge of figurative perception through images revealed and withheld. As recognizable identities are transmuted into degrees of ghostly archetype and allegory one has to wonder, who is actually missing?

November 22 – December 20, 2014

"Damak to Denver" features photographs and stories by Bhutanese refugees of their last days in a refugee camp, their journey to the United States, and their first days in Colorado.
Last Spring, Picture Me Here (PMH), a digital storytelling program for refugees based in the Denver Metro area, provided cameras and training to Bhutanese youth living in a refugee camp in Eastern Nepal. The young refugees were scheduled to resettle in Aurora and most arrived by August, 2014. This training empowered them to document their last days in the camp, their journey to Colorado, and their first impressions of life in the United States. Since they arrived, professional photographers and storytelling mentors have been meeting with each participant to help them continue building skills and sharing stories. "Damak to Denver" features photographs, video and writings that reflect on the refugees' past and their new lives in America. Books and prints will be available for purchase. All proceeds will support future PMH programs.
About Picture Me Here: Founded in 2012, PMH partners with CPAC as a fiscal sponsor. The project in Nepal is their first international project. PMH is committed to fostering communication, integration and connection among diverse groups of people.
"We provide a platform to empower refugees to share their stories, connect with others, engage in their community and build new skills, before and after resettlement. We also provide leadership positions within the program for dedicated participants," says Brigid McAuliffe, PMH director. Project Partners: Colorado Photographic Arts Center, United Nations Refugee Agency, International Organization for Migration, Caritas Nepal, Ricoh/Pentax, Aurora Cultural Arts District, City Museum of Kathmandu, 280 Kickstarter Donors.
The United Nations Refugee Agency, International Organization for Migration and Caritas Nepal were instrumental in helping PMH leaders with logistics for this project such as getting a permit to work in the camp and selecting participants scheduled to soon resettle in Colorado.

Metropolitan State University of Denver, Center for Visual Art, together with the National Collage Society (NCS), presents a juried exhibition of collage and assemblage, Greater Than The Sum: National Collage Society Annual Exhibition.
Collage was first accepted as an art form in the early 20th century and has gone through surges in popularity. Works in Greater than the Sum demonstrate an exceptional use of the medium.
The exhibition features 91 works from artists both local and from across the globe. The exhibition was juried by Janice McDonald, collage artist and director of Denver's Spark Gallery; Marilee Salvator, Associate Professor of Art – MSU Denver; and CVA Creative Director Cecily Cullen.

The Rude Gallery at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design is pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition God, Hookers and Sociopolitical Justice by artist and RMCAD student Arlexis Gallegos .
Gold, hookers, and sociopolitical justice define Arlexis Gallegos artwork. He manipulates the world he sees, hears and feels into what he calls art. While being obsessed with the human figure he looks to find the fairness and beauty in global oppression. Gallegos confronts the viewer seeking to challenge the inappropriate as being acceptable and provoke alternative thought and discourse among viewers.
As an artist he is defined as having a distinctive name, being Hispanic, belonging to the lower middle class, being bilingual, and being homosexual. These experiences allowed him to see the world through multiple lenses.

Betsy Buckner: Lily, acrylic & oil, 40"x30"
"People & Critters" shows paintings by Betsy Buckner of her favorite subject matter, animals. Buckner's work will bring a smile to the viewer with her use of bold, colorful depictions of foxes, bears and bison.
Evergreen artist Buckner rarely paints on an easel. With her preference for painting onto canvas on the floor, she achieves spontaneous, eye-popping images. This show presents a collection of her favorite creatures.
Originally from Switzerland Helene Strebel is inspired by her many travels in life. "People" is an eclectic show as she portrays people in acrylic paint, collage, and sculpture. Strebel works intuitively allowing the forms and shapes to create the end result.
Strebel states, "I have always been drawn to abstract art because it allows me to express more ideas and emotions." Working mostly with acrylic paint Strebel has added collage pieces to enhance her technique. The figures in her paintings are also represented by sculptures made out of poplar wood.

Evergreen Fine Art: Miniature Masterpieces 2014
- Published on November 19, 2014
5th Annual Miniature Masterpieces
Evergreen Fine Art Gallery
November 21 - December 13, 2014
- Artists Reception: Friday November 21st from 5 - 8pm
Robert Spooner, "The Garage", 9x9
This year's much-anticipated celebration of scale will feature works by 50 large talents presented in delightfully diminutive dimensions. Miniature Masterpieces offers not only a rare opportunity to marvel at the patience, concentration and immense skill needed to render a universe of beauty in less than 120 square inches, the invitational event will also afford art collectors of every caliber the opportunity to add some very prominent signatures to their personal gallery at more modest prices.
"Miniature Masterpieces is an absolute favorite around the holidays," says Evergreen Fine Arts' director of exhibitions, Doug Kacena. "It's perfect for entry-level collectors who are just beginning to build their collections, and it's a good opportunity for more established collectors to fill in the gaps in their collections. There'll be several pieces by each artist, and one of the fun things about the show is that the themes and subjects are all over the board."
Native New Mexican and nationally acclaimed oil painter Robert Spooner, for example, may provide a Lilliputian look at ladies taking their tea alongside a half-sized study of hay barrels next to a soaring cityscape condensed into a half-foot-square frame. Denver's recognized artist laureate, Quang Ho, will certainly display a striking selection of figurative paintings and deftly pruned blooms, and Pem Dunn of Evergreen is sure to portray nature's grand pageant upon the smallest of stages.
Among many others who'll be doing their best and their least for Miniature Masterpieces, and who'll be glad to discuss their work at the exhibit opening, are highly regarded landscape masters such as Dave Santillanes, Keith Bond and Kevin Weckbach, master of nocturnes Michael Unitedt, oil painter Kim English, nationally esteemed wildlife artist Edward Aldrich, still life virtuoso Jeff Legg and abstract painter Karen Roehl. In addition, a selection of noted sculptors such as Pati Stajcar, Karryl, Stephen LeBlanc, and Rosetta will create miniature masterpieces in subtle shades of bronze and stone.
While of humble physical stature, the demanding art of miniature painting stands tall in tradition. This art form dates back to classical Greece at least, and monks of medieval Europe were fond of bordering compact and intricate manuscript illuminations with a red pigment know as "minium", from which the word "miniature" derives. Elizabethan England elevated painting "in the small" to the public at large by applying lifelike portraits to portable – and wearable – discs of vellum and ivory. Miniature painting reached full flower in the second half of the 20th century, and now enjoys a large and devoted following that appreciates its minimal space requirements, favorable cost comparisons and endless variety. And it's that exquisite tradition that Evergreen Fine Art Gallery is pleased to honor with Miniature Masterpieces.

The Dikeou Collection's Ninth installment of the 'Fresh Jazz and Crisp Vinyl Series' will feature a special performance by The Aakash Mittal Quartet on Friday, November 21, from 7:00pm to 10:00pm. Mark Sink, Photographer Extraordinaire will be spinning rare & classic records from the Collection's extensive Vinyl Archive. Mittal and his band will play at 8:00 pm.

Hailed as "A fiery alto saxophonist and prolific composer" by the Star Tribune (Minneapolis), Aakash Mittal is sculpting a dynamic voice that touches American and Indian traditions. His self-released album, Videsh, was regarded as, "point[ing] toward new possibilities in improvised music." (Denver Post) As a composer and improviser, Mittal employs colorful dissonances, meditative silences, and angular rhythms expressing environments and spaces ranging from the American west to the dense streets of Kolkata.
The Aakash Mittal Quartet employs colorful dissonances, meditative silences, and angular rhythms expressing environments and spaces ranging from the American west to the dense streets of Kolkata. Recognized with an ASCAP Award for Adventurous programming, the quartet blurs the line between genres, sculpting improvisation and composition from jazz, western classical, and Indian traditions. These art forms coalesce to create "beautiful music that [is] at once soulful and exhilarating." (The Telegraph, Kolkata).
Mark Sink, Photographer, Curator and Teacher, has been and making a living from fine art photography since 1978. He is well known for his imagery made with the toy plastic camera, the Diana. Currently, also a reverse technology, he is producing collodion wet plate photographs.
The 'Fresh Jazz and Crisp Vinyl Series' focuses on jazz musicians living and working today, whose names are not yet embossed into history, but whose energy, wisdom, well worn instruments, and presence in the jazz scene are further defining our admiration for the life form, Jazz music. Selections from the vinyl archive will thus serve as a remembrance to all the jazz greats who came before the jazz musicians invited to play at this bi-monthly series.

An animated video cast onto a bent sheet of yellow acrylic sheet creates the illusion of three dimensions and shows a change in the wave length when light travels across the curved surface. With the addition of green bent acrylic sheet panels in front, the mystery of light and color is enhanced. The interaction of these items creates a mysterious 3-D effect.
In recent years, Graham has been exploring ways to make visible the concepts being developed by astrophysics as a result of enhanced technology in this field. Dark matter, dark energy, the multiverse concept, string theory and others all leave open endless possibilities. In this dark and quiet space the mind is free to experience a multitude of ideas. This video shows a simplified version previously shown at Rude Gallery on the RMCAD campus.
Linda Graham earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio with a major in Biology and a minor in Chemistry in 1960. A year of medical school (1962-3) at Case-Western Reserve University was followed by years of childrearing and developing skills and knowledge about constructing, glazing and firing works in clay.
Her clay work was exhibited in Colorado during the 1980's, while the 1990's + was spent working to create a youth arts organization in Aurora, CO near Colfax Avenue and earning a masters of public administration from the University of Colorado Denver in 2001. Linda says, "In the summer of 1991, I joined a group interested in the creation of an arts organization in the Original Aurora area of Aurora. We explored the needs of the community as well as possible funding sources. I became deeply committed to establishing an organization to involve middle school students in this very needful area of the city in the making of art for the community. Our first project was a 20' x 60' Community Clay Tile Mural, shown above. I spent the next 12 years as founding director, volunteering when necessary, receiving a salary when available, "making art a part of community life."
Downtown Aurora Visual Arts, widely known now as DAVA, was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1993 and continues today as a vital arts organization under the able directorship of Susan Jensen.
After exploring some computer based classes in the continuing education program at RMCAD (2003-7), Linda found the clay program under Martha Russo and continued to help in the clay program while auditing classes and exploring fine art options until the fall of 2013. In 2011 she discovered the fascinating qualities of plexiglass and has spent 2 years making sculptures using light and projections to express an interest in describing the complexities of our cosmos.

Gary Isaacs Artist Statement: 36 Views of the Lion's Lair
From the I Ching : What takes place in the depths of one's being, in the unconscious, can neither be called forth nor prevented by the conscious mind.
Back in 2008 I was in NYC visiting with my uncle Philip where for 50 years he's lived in the same one room walk up just around the corner from Grand Central Station. I've always loved his place, It's like a cross between an Appalachian shack and the Vatican. One night during my stay I awoke to find him sitting motionless at the edge of his bed. Wearing only boxers, his back was to me, and I was startled to see that it was completely covered by a beautiful tattoo rendering of Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa. I was so startled that I woke up again . . . . I had been dreaming. My uncle was in fact fast asleep, tattoo-less except for the faded "Shirley" on his left shoulder.
Home in Denver several weeks later, I was walking past the Lions Lair for the zillionth time when it spontaneously occurred to me that it might be interesting to make a series of photographs all anchored by at least some portion of the Lions Lair façade . . . "36 Views of the Lions Lair" . It's as simple as that. These images are photographs of both the Lions Lair itself and of moments visually sandwiched between myself and the façade of the Lions Lair. For the record, I've spent my fair share of hours and dollars inside of that place, probably more than some would advise calling attention to, and over the years I have made thousands upon thousands of photographs "inside" the Lair, but that's another story.
36 Views of the Lion's Lair is not about my experience on the inside, and though I've also spent years photographing up and down the length of the once rough and tumble "longest, wickedest street in America" that is Colfax, these photographs are not particularly about that either. This is not some sort of social commentary, documentary, or lifestyle piece. I set out to create a body of work that nodded to the series of woodblock prints created by Katsushika Hokusai in early 1800's Japan entitled 36 Views of Mount Fuji. Or, said another way, this is a collection of photographs that represent my conscious exploration of a specific limitation suggested to me by my unconscious.
Where did my initial dream come from? I don't know. What did that dream mean? I don't know. The first time that I walked past the Lions Lair after having had that dream why did it occur to me to embark on this project? I don't know. Would it have ever entered my mind to make these images had I not had that dream? I doubt it. All that I can say with certainty is that I feel that there is a direct, if not completely knowable, connection between the dream and the idea to make these photographs.
BIO: Unless one is willing to reveal themselves to the world the world will not reveal itself to them. One will never be able to see more in their work than they are able to see in themselves and by the same token they will not be able to not see themselves in their own creations . . . . .
Before I began photographing in earnest sometime during the mid 80's my life had unfolded less like the chapters of a continuous narrative and more like a succession of short stories with no apparent connection between them other than I happened to be there cast in the first person. By the time we moved the studio out of Union Station in 1998 my archive had swollen to roughly 200,000 negatives and I had become deeply embedded in a career that straddled a range of editorial and advertising assignments that I juggled along side an ongoing series of personal projects. I've never been the kind of guy who had a "day job" and have always found a way to turn whatever I was truly inspired by into a full time gig. For the last thirty years "photography" has been my passion, my vocation and a spiritual path all in one.

Not So Far From Here is a unique photographic portrait of the Western American landscape. The images seek beauty in non-traditional places, show a crumbling rural culture, and find humor in simple and subtle ways. The project emphasizes the journey, rather than the destination, and explores the things that can be found by slowing down and taking in the world that lies beyond the tunnel vision that so often dominates our daily lives. Over the last several years, Sisson has been collecting these scenes during open-ended, unplanned road trips throughout Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, New Mexico, Montana, South Dakota, Utah, and Kansas. With an emphasis and enjoyment for the process, Not So Far From Here is a thoughtful look at life on the open road. http://www.PaulSissonPhoto.com

Shikhar Dhawan registered his maiden ODI century in Cardiff to help India start their campaign on a winning note and the left-handed opener said patience was the key for him. Dhawan slammed a 'patient' 114 off 91 balls that helped India score an imposing 331 for seven against South Africa in the opening match of the tournament. "I am happy with the knock I played, but happier because we won a game that was actually getting quite close," he told reporters in a post-match chat. When the team left the Indian shores, it was almost certain that the left-handed Dhawan would open the batting with Murali Vijay, but Thursday's decisive 127-run opening stand almost certainly means Dhawan's partner for the rest of the group matches will be Rohit Sharma, who scored a polished 65. "It was nice to play with Rohit. He is such a pleasure to watch and really runs the singles very well. We adjusted to the conditions very well and once we settled down, the runs started coming. It was quite a job," Dhawan said. Dhawan said the absence of Dale Steyn did not make the South African attack any weaker. "Guys like (Morne) Morkel and Ryan McLaren are well known names in the world of fast bowling. So we knew they would attack us from the start. But we took our time to settle down and then scored off their pace," Dhawan said. "I quite enjoy taking pressure but today it was more about waiting for the loose balls. The wicket was good to bat but it was important not to rush into strokes. This strategy worked very well after the first powerplay," Dhawan said. The exposure to "nets in English conditions" did help him prepare for the game. As for stepping out to the fastest of bowlers, Dhawan said: "It's my nature. Courage comes normally to me. I am used to it." The Delhi left-hander will now have to keep this form going as India play West Indies and Pakistan next in what is considered by many experts the 'Group of Death.'

could you make up a quick little treasure hunt? Or set them a list of things to "find" around the house, not sure these could be too young ideas but my little people are only small.
Or some cooking if you have stuff in - always fun as you get to eat it!

Yeah, that would have been good! Think might build s fort. Can't afford cinema etc!
12-06-11, 11:19 #7Ali J(2)
Put their wellies on, and rain macs and brollies, and send them in the garden! LOL! I've done that before now.
Though not sure a 9 year old and an 11 year old will be impressed. It's younger children that would love splashing about in the puddles.
Visit a local Garden Centre, just to have a look around.
It's a horrible day here too!

get them to draw the most ghastly horrible monsters they can imagine - or the best, fastest, coolest car of the future. Then they can write a story about it and decide whether the monster is a goody or baddy.

This is the problem, they're that bit older where the (expensive!!) acts of cinema, skating and bowling are their bag.
However, made some play dough and DD 9 did make a heart for father's day.
Made a fort - it was probably the worst one we've ever made and DS 11 had no interest in joining in with that (he's been on Mafia II all day, upgrading his cars!) but the cat finds the fort absolutely fab!!!!
We'd love to splash in mud in the garden but I covered the whole lot in weed suppressing membrane and dragged 20 x 9litre bags of bark chippings over it so there's no flippin' puddles at all to splosh in!!!
If you were by the coast, today is a GREAT day for body boarding!! Just get more wet!
We're nearly there - got them a Jacqueline Wilson and a Top Gear mag and that's absorbed them for a while!!!
The tweens are a difficult bunch cos they are so aware of what they COULD do with their time - but less appreciation of how much these things cost. Although, having said that, my lovely sensitive sweet DS has just had a £140 karting party booked and I told him he might not get a present too - and he was totally understanding and unfazed about it. God bless him!! More than I ever got - tea for friends at your own home was all I ever had!!!!!

A bit naughty, but how about walking to the local shop for a treat each (ie bar of choccie, packet of crisps) which they could have while watching a DVD. Gets you all out for a few mins and they might be attracted by something yummy.

MARTIN O'NEILL believes Alfred N'Diaye will improve game by game after the towering midfielder tasted defeat for the first time in a Sunderland shirt at Reading.
The 22-year-old covered a lot of ground during Sunderland's 2-1 defeat at the Madejski Stadium, but was guilty of giving the ball away too cheaply as well as squandering a late opportunity to win the game.
But O'Neill has reiterated his belief that once N'Diaye, a £3.8m signing from Bursaspor, adapts fully to Premier League football he will be a Sunderland success.
"He's learning the game," said O'Neill. "He's making runs at this moment, sometimes I feel he goes a bit early, but overall I think he'll do really well for us once he's settled down.
"I think he's trying to do everything for us at this minute, but he'll be fine.
N'Diaye continues to enjoy the full backing of Sunderland's support, and O'Neill felt sorry for him after he shanked an opportunity wide with ten minutes to play after decent work with Adam Johnson.
O'Neill added: "He's a strong lad, he wants to do well, he's disappointed for himself. He should have done better with the chance he had, it was a decent chance, and the lead-up to it was impressive with Adam Johnson."
%image('martin o'neill', type="articleLandscape")%image('2048485', type="articleLandscape")
An in-form N'Diaye will be a fillip for Sunderland, who, with defeat, found themselves looking over their shoulders once more. And O'Neill still feels that they have more battling to do if they are to retain their Premier League status.
"It will go to the wire," said O'Neill.
"I saw chunks of the game between QPR and Norwich, Aston Villa conceded late, it's going to be like that, it's going to be difficult.
"Reading adapted quickly to the conditions, and they were stronger than us earlier on. Once we got a grip of the game I thought we did well.
We're not looking up yet. We've still got more points to win. Sunderland's manager paid tribute to Reading's revival, which has seen them win three games out of four as well as coming back from 2-0 down at home to Chelsea to earn a point.
O'Neill said: "It's been a great effort. It turned in that fightback against WBA, then there's been a lot of late goals.
"But I'm disappointed with us. Reading will be delighted but from our viewpoint it's disappointing."

I don't need fenders as I live in Phoenix and it NEVER rains (just moved out from TN so i'm still in shock.) but other than that what would you guys recommend for her? Thanks
Looks pretty nice. I would start by getting that seat closer to level -- but seat config is a very personal preference. Before that even, red blinky light for the rear. This one is (like most) pretty cheap, plenty effective and (unlike most) comes with not just a seatpost clamp, but also a bracket for attaching to the back of your rack if it has a tab sticking down. Then, depending on whether you EVER ride in the dark, you'll be wanting a headlight. Opinions in that department are even more personal and contentious, but my personal (and not very contentious) recommendation is this reg'lr flashlight, attached with two interlocking hose clamps. It's as bright as the sun, and with the adjustable 'focus', I find I can get a really good beam pattern from it. 12 minutes left on the auction, if you hurry you might get that one! Or another just like it for $25 or better. At that price, expect the batteries to be crap, and spend $10-15 from a better pair of 18650s (from an American company), and you'll be set.
Thanks for the advice. As for the seat, I like it really downturned and was actually wishing it would go further. You should see my mtn bike seat lol. I ride with the chair up pretty high because i have long legs but it also causes it to hurt my "gooch" after a while if it's level. I actually do have a tiny little red blinker attached to the bottom of the rack, although it's a little hard to see in the pic. I'm definitely in the market for some better front and rear lights though. Too bad I missed that auction lol.
There's lights like that one available all the time. Just search for CREE XML T6 BATTERY CHARGER ULTRAFIRE and pluck one out of the neverending stream flowing out of fleabay.
Here are mine. The red one is a bike from a small German manufacturer in Bremen. I bought in 1994. 28" wheels. Solid steel frame. Brought with me when I moved to the US in 2001. A few years ago I thought I needed to replace it with a more modern mountain bike. Well I discovered that this bike is actually the much better bike and the mountain bike is now sitting in my garage.
What I like about the bike is the shifter. Unusual but great. Ideal for city driving. 21 speed with 7 speed derailleur in the back and 3 speed hub shifter in the back. I still have a chain guard for bad weather and I can shift the gears when stopped or driving. Great when you have to start at a traffic light and did not have time to shift down before stopping.
The paniers (Ortlieb backrollers) are as old as the bike and still in great shape. One carries my laptop and the other my clothes and lunch.
The white one is my wife's old bike. An original 28" Gazelle from the 80s. We also brought this from Gemany when we came here. She did not like it anymore because this bike is really heavy. Everything is steel except the chain guard. We replaced it with a more modern hybrid some years ago. After years in storage I got the bike back out and decided to make it my shopping bike. Only 3 speed but hey, it is flat here in Texas. ;-)
I replaced the saddle with Brooks saddle which I brought back from Germany and also the fender skirts. The original ones were clear yellowish plastic and ripped and broken. These with news paper prints I got in Germany. I also added the foldable baskets, the front basket and the center kick stand. Perfect bike for short trips to the local grocery store.

Alright, I'll finally jump in after lurking on this site for waaay too long...recently picked up this Lemond Croix de Fer in great shape ('06 I think?). So nice to be rolling on steel again after commuting on an aluminum Allez for the past few years. I had the guys at WaterField customize one of their SleeveCases for me so I can strap my laptop directly to the frame, allowing me to ditch the rear rack from my prior commuting rig (since my computer is really the only big thing I need to carry). Works great.
Just me and my kuwie, I entered it into a local Builders gallery show in the daily rider catagory I didn't win got beat out by a really nice rivendale. Part of the enterance fee was getting a little photo shoot.

New Hampshire Woman Calls 911 to Request Pen, Gets Arrestedby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Take note, THGers. Here is what we've learned about 911 this month:
Do not call if McDonald's messes up your order.
Do not call if the cable goes out, even during a Breaking Bad episode.
And do not call if you are in need of a pen, something New Hamphire resident Jeanie Dufresne discovered the hard way this week.
As explained in the following video, Dufresne angered an operator for making just such a request over the weekend, getting herself arrested for the THIRD TIME THIS MONTH for using 911 in an inappropriate manner.
The 66-year old told authorities each time that she just wanted someone to talk to. Darn. This story just went from funny to sad...
911 is for DOG OWNERS too?
If you want to talk about calling 911 why doesn't sonebody get a read on the 3 blacks who shot and killed Christopher Lane who was a 22 year old baseball player in Oklahoma! Why isn't Obama talking about this OBVIOUS race hate crime- why isn't the media talking about this and why isn't there a thread on this! This kid was out jogging and the son of a bitches shot him in cold blooded murder!

Like the meat. Side dishes on the table coulb be more diversified and replaced constantly.
Like the ambience. Lots of space. Service could be little better...
Is easy to summarize... Brasilian grills are absolutely perfect. Even though I don't like Sao Paulo and Brasilia (find them as really boring cities) I have to admit is the best meat I've ever had and every time I think about this place (or Jardineira Grill in Sao Paulo) I want to be transported there once again. 20 points out...
This was my second visit and I will always dine here when I am in Brasilia. The food is great, the service is excellent. Don't miss this one. If you like Churrascaria you will love this one.
I had never experienced a churrascaria before and was not ready for the meat overload. The salad bar was inventive and varied with dishes like smoked salmon char grilled zucchini and a vast array of salads. The meat just kept on coming all the different cuts of beef lamb pork and chicken. All cooked to perfection. A great night out.
I go to rodizios every now and then, and favor the top end ones on the assumption that both their buffet and meats will be of exceptional quality. Additionally, there's good service and a nice setting.
This was my first time at FdC Brasilia and I confess that the meats were flawless, and the frequency of their being offered just...
I was expecting a lot, since I was in one of the most expensive "churrascarias" from Brasília, maybe that was my fault, high expectations. The food was ok, the buffet is very small, the price was freaking high and the service was good. You can find better places, spending less money.
Good place to invite tourists, I invited my family when they visited the country during the soccer world cup, it was a little complicated to get a table, but once sited you get exactly what you want... good beef, good salad, excelent caipirinha and the personal is very attentive with people from other countries, I have visited several fogos de...
this is the seminal treat in Brazil.. my 2nd time.. you have to try it :)
every type of delicious meat sizzled to perfection, and a classic harvest bar too..
Great food here at this place. the meat is brilliant quality and the salad bar is also very extensive. The serivce is decent, although the restaurant was very busy so sometimes it was slightly slower than you would like but this isn't an issue unless you're in a hurry.
Would definitely recommend on any visit to brasilia.
I was there during the World Cup and the service was beyond awful. The food is no different than a Fogo de chao in Houston. But the service awful. They pretended to not get television reception during a game so people would leave sooner so they could turn tables. Their grilled fruit & ice cream dessert was disgusting - how...

I use Vim 7.3 on FreeBSD. I connect to this machine through Putty. When working on Vim, I'm unable to remap F10 key to do something I want. In my .vimrc, I did the following:
nmap <F10> :!ls<CR>
Then I did, "source $MYVIMRC" to load the changes in .vimrc. When I press F10 after this, it prints ^[[21~ instead of the executing the map. I tried all combination of
noremap but nothing works.
Remapping this to other function keys is not an option because they are mapped for other uses.
Just FYI, in Putty configuration options, under Terminal->Keyboard, I have set the "Function keys and keypad" option to "Linux".
Any suggestion to get this to work?

Rapper Bow Wow has reacted to singer Erykah Badu's new "Window Seat" music video which features her disrobing in public.
Writing via Twitter, Bow Weezy also imagined a relationship with the singer.
"I jus gotta new crush. its @fatbellybella (Erykah Badu) she is too fine in her new video. Man if i was jus 10 yrs older. look sexy," he wrote Sunday (March 28) evening. "#iknewitwaslove when i saw @fatbellybella New video "Window Seat" @IAM_BART bro i know she can put me up on game. i could learn from her. she a have me reading and learning sh*t about life im so down. gnr" (Bow Wow's Twitter)
Over the weekend, the video began to circulate through various music blogs.
Erykah Badu's official video for "Window Seat" is finally here. And homegirl strips down to nothing. And still kept it creative. Her album leaked as well and folks are loving it. Check out the vid. You feelin' it? (The YBF)
Badu later explained the song and video's motivation via Twitter.
"i was petrified while shooting this video … but liberation began to set in .i conquered many fears in that few moments . i am greatful," she wrote Saturday (March 27) evening. "we are ALL guilty of groupthink we have all been VICTIMS of groupthink @ShugaAnnSpyce no closed set . no actors . everything was real . window seat video notes: had intended to direct this vid alone. after working w/ coodie and chike and bouncing thoughts i asked them to join RT @TravlrStone: @fatbellybella "Window Seat" was an unbelievable moment in vulnerability and liberation. That took bawlz. @SaskiaChanel my views are condition,thus pointless .i am encouraging thought thru correct definition of #groupthink in its original intent @SaskiaChanel i make no claims , i am not qualified .William H. Whyte coined the term in 1952, in Fortune magazine . this term #groupthink intellects get in here . what are the pros and cons of shooting this type of video ? www.erykahbadu.com RT @Amadii: @fatbellybella the Kennedy association .i did'nt expect u to get shot,but the video appears 2 be about character assassinati …" (Erykah Badu's Twitter)
The singer plans to release new music and her latest album, New Amerykah Part Two, tomorrow.
"The Internet has afforded us with a way to not limit ourselves to the album project," Badu told Billboard recently. "There are so many ways to put out music now without having it just being a part of an album." A number of websites will premiere each version of "Jump" exclusively throughout the month of March. Erykah Badu's anticipated album, "New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh," is due in stores and at digital retail March 30. (Singers Room)

A time to remember our heritage for Memorial Day
in Christianity
We have a sermon on our spiritual heritage to share tonight. First, we want to remember a select group of brave young men and women. Those that gave all with their full measure of devotion to serve their country. This is not a time to remember those that came back from our military conflicts. But, I have to admitt that I do. This is not a time to rejoice in the victory of battles won. But I am sure that for some they will. In my minds eye I can see those flag covered caskets of young men and women who died far from everything that they loved. I can see the fathers with small children who lost their wife, the children who lost a parent, the parents who lost a child. I can see expectant mothers that lost a husband, and the surviving solders that lost a friend and comrad in arms. We, as a people, have the tendancy to feel emotion, and then forget as life goes on. I am thankful that our leaders set aside a day to give honor, and cause us to reflect on the cost that is paid for our freedoms. It was not free and not cheap! For many, the nightmare of having to become both mother and father to their children's everyday life. I cannot imagine how a parent can work through the loss of their child so far away from them. How do the solders that returned deal with the survivors guilt and face the family of those that returned? I cannot even imagine how you deal with the brutality and swiftness of the loss. Tonight, we give honor to those that paid the cost of our freedom with their life. How do we give honor to them; remember their sacrifice and reach out to those that were impacted the most by their loss. We are going to start the show with a song, and while it's playing I ask that you join me in a prayer for these families. Where are limited in ourselves, but GOD is not!

Right after college graduation, Costa, a lower-middle-class kid from Buffalo, New York, is drafted into the US army and plunged into the Vietnam War. The Foot Solder catapults the reader back to the conflict that changed America.
This is a compelling novella of morality—right or wrong in a split second in the hell of the jungle—when it really matters, regardless of rank, military orders, or rule books. It asks how a soldier survives, how he deals with dislocation, and how he reacts when given an order that defies everything he's ever believed about the human soul.

Linda's originally designed jewelry was a featured gift chosen to present to First Lady Michelle Obama and can be seen alongside bead supplies, women's accessories, art and other fine locally handmade gifts in her gallery. Her collection is available at the Harvey B Gantt Center and other specialty shops. Bring in your clothing and Linda will design the perfect earrings, bracelet or necklace to accent and complete you fashionable look.
She uses classic pearls, semi-precious gemstones, swarovski crystals, larimar, coral, turquoise, tourmaline, various beads and other materials to create classic designs with high fashion twist.
Linda recognizes that purchasing jewelry is a "want" and not a "need". Her priority is to provide you with what you want. Linda uses copper colored solder in her designs.
Environmentally, copper is one of the friendliest metals around. Copper never goes bad - it can be recycled over and over again. It actually has the highest recycling rate of any engineering metal in the world. Copper also functions as a defense against germs - because it is naturally biostatic, bacteria growth is inhibited on its surface. Many hospitals install copper or copper-alloy doorknobs, push panels and other hardware to protect against the transfer of disease.

Yesterday was Veterans Day. This show tonight is our tribute to those brave men and women who serve. Wild Bill's dad served in Korea, and my dad served in Vietnam. I have a sister, brothers, and a brother in law that served. Wild Bill served and his son served an extended tour in Iraq at the beginning of the conflict after 911. He then volunteered for a second tour. He suffers from PTSD and brain trauma from a mortar attack. We did a two part show where we had the family share the issues of a returning solder and the effect it has on family when they are damaged. Many come home changed. Other give the ultimate sacrifice and come home in a flag covered box. Tonight this tribute is also for law enforcement officers, fire fighters, EMTs, secret service and anyone who has dedicated their life to public service. For those in the life you know the pressures these jobs bring to the family. The comradeship between all of these people who stand in the gap for others is the same when you are up against the wall! The job has a task but to the men and women it is all about each other! We should all count our blessings that we still have men and women who are willing to stand in the gap for others! One last thought. We used to sing a song in church, "God's got an army!" In listening to this show tonight ask yourself this one question. How does your commitment to God compare to what you are hearing tonight? Are you really a committed solder for God? As we play our tribute song we ask that you take this time to pray a sincere prayer for those that serve.

Was the performance of the New England Patriots offensive line throughout the preseason an anomaly or a sign of things to come? Can they protect Tom Brady? What sort of running game will the team feature? Can Brian Waters be expected to return? Will the Patriots need to change their offensive philosophy to account for the inabilities of the offensive line?. Who is the key to the offensive lines performance?
In this 15-minute podcast the Boston Sport Skeptic answers these questions and shares his belief on why the offensive line is more of a key to the Patriots season than the revamped defense.
