Long-suffering Virgin Media victims see no end to vid PURGATORY
Here on the networks desk at Vulture Central our inbox runneth over with complaints from fed-up Virgin Media customers who feel that they are being roundly ignored by the telco, which is yet to fix a network peering problem with a mysterious third party. The major buffering glitch is causing havoc with punters who are …
What makes it even worst is
If I try to watch something from BBC iPlayer it buffers and shows really bad pixelation.
I then enable Unblock-US VPN service and go for Netflix USA (or any other country) or Youtube etc and get perfect HD streaming no problem.
This is really crazy and means that to watch iPlayer I have to use my 3G broadband connection to get a good picture and no buffering.
VM really need to sort this out or they will lose a lot of people to other services. Thankfully I have not been inconvenienced enough to want to switch but if I do start to see buffering I will deffinately go elsewhere.
Re: What makes it even worst is
+1 Also using my 3G mobile to stream HD video now as it does not work on VM.
On a side note I did a speedtest on my mobile and the upload was 3.5 times faster than my VM fibre connection!
Re: What makes it even worst is
If you have VM if you have their TV service isn't it easier to watch iPlayer via the TV?
The ill informed may think that Virgin Media dont want you watching BBC iPlayer in HD for fear of clogging up the network.
That's paranoid conspiracy talk there Mr jimborae...
...and just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean that you're wrong...
AC...well, obviously...
And another paranoid proposition
If they wanted to drive you onto watching Virgin cable video instead of third-party Internet online media, this might be how they'd do it.
In the debate over online network neutrality - which in Britain we simply don't have - one of the use cases of a non-neutrality policy is for a video supply company to be able to throttle or block Internet video supplied by third parties. I think it wasn't even secret, it was in people's business plans.
Re: And another paranoid proposition
Actually its a better way to drive people to alternative connections.
4mb ADSL that works is better than 100mb cable that doesnt work.
>The ill informed may think that Virgin Media dont want you watching BBC iPlayer in HD for fear of clogging up the network.
I was under the impression that iPlayer was exempt from VM's traffic control - ie, it doesn't count towards your download quota in peak times.
@AC, 16 November 12:06 GMT.
You were under the wrong impression. All traffic counts towards your download quota.
Virgin TV OnDemand
Remember of course, Virgin have two different versions of iPlayer/OnDemand
TiVo connects to the standard online iPlayer and streams the same content as at bbc.co.uk/iplayer/tv via a dedicated 10Mb line
V/V+ content is specially encoded by the broadcasters for VM and stored on the local headend.. then delivered to your box as a conventional TV channel.
(One of many reasons I'm quite happy with V+ and specifically don't want TiVo)
Not just video
I stream audio at 192k for a majority of the day - guaranteed glitches at least 3/4 times an hour on a 20meg connection.
Wondering if it might have anything to do with them prioritising thier own streaming services?
Either way VM, you shout about having the best network....
Make it so!
Re: Not just video
You know they will have Patrick Stuart in their next TV ad.
We supply light speed broadband - "May it SO!"
Re: Not just video
Brent: Christ! WTF?!!! WHY DID YOU JUST SHOOT ME IN THE KNEE YOU F****ER!
Brent: OH S*** THE OTHER LEG AS WELL??? FFS, STOP IT!
VM: Data capped.
Once my TalkTalk contract ends I was going to make the leap to Virgin after coming to believe they were now one of the good ones.
There is no good ones, only varying levels of bad.
For what its worth, every time I've had a problem with VM (which has been 3 times in about 5 years) they've been rather prompt and nice about fixing it.
The time I phoned up and said I felt I was paying too much, and wished they'd do me a better deal.... well they did, 3x the broadband speed with a free modem upgrade (doing it via the site was asking £50 which I laughed at).
Cue screaming over their terrible super hub, but I always planned to run it as a modem (I basically did with the old one via DMZ). My only issue is sometimes I hit their limiting hard, and they break xbox live when they limit it (The core xbox live service works fine, but *some* games which appear to use p2p connections get limited, making that unplayable).
If you are looking to stream video or play 3D multiplayer games online, Virgin should be your last choice due to the jitter on their network.
At the time of this post.
Xbox 360 no1 online: check (playing Halo4 online, no reported issues)
Xbox 360 no2 online: check (playing Halo4 online, no reported issues)
This PC online: check (downloading a couple of rar files and streaming a video from livestream, no issues)
Laptop online: check (browsing, no issues reported)
All this on a 20 Mb VM connection.
@DJ Smiley
There are good ISPs out there. You have to look and be prepared *not* to pay peanuts.
I use BE via Andrews and Arnold. Never have any lags and can easily watch 4 Sky Go streams (@ the full 2.9mb/s per stream) during the evening. They offer support that is teccie based and you can even chat to the owner on IRC. No throttling of any protocol. check them out at www.aaisp.net
I don't work for A&A - just a very satisfied customer for the last 10 years.
Go to the top..
Reposting with my pre-espresso spelling errors removed...
Go to the top...
Send mail to good old Mr Neil Berkett - mark it Private and Confidential, so theoretically it can only be looked at by people directly authorised by Mr B - and let him know your frank and honest views.
It probably won't achieve anything, but at least you will get your complaint registered.
It does make those ads that the ASA was so riled about seem doubly ironic.
I really must get round to having a BT line installed - how much does it cost these days?
BT Line install
The cost is free if you ask them nicely (they don't publicise the free reinstallation but it is always available).
Re: BT Line install
Yes free maybe, but a few months down the line you have a problem and they charge you £99.00 for the repair... I know am taking them to ombudsman over it. The engineer blatantly lied in his report over the fault and made up the rest...
I think that this is all deliberate, VM haven't got the bandwidth to provide what they've offered so they try to dissuade their users from trying to use youtube and iPlayer by placing a cap on the amount of traffic allowed to enter their network from those popular services.
Last week, I watched an hour's program on iPlayer about cells, nothing unusual.
Earlier this week, I watched Bruce Almighty on iPlayer from start to finish, nothing unusual.
Yesterday, I caught up with a lot of the comedies I'd missed last weekend on iPlayer - and some in HD - nothing unusual (one stream took a little while to buffer, but F5'd and it worked fine).
On Virgin Media, with their Superhub (modem mode), on their lowest Internet tariff. So it's either not as clear-cut as a particular peer not working, or they are having problems related to their local back-ends and leased lines, not the main connectivity.
That said, they should really name-and-shame in order to sort it out. You're an ISP. If people can't connect to the largest UK Internet service, you're dead in the water. Sort it out.
Came here to say something similar. Just lucky (for now) I guess.
Up vote for you - I'm in same position - I download rarely, but if I do, I *do* get limited - and its all "legal" downloading; I work with archiveteam.
If I haven't downloaded recently, I seemingly never have any issues. (never == 3 issues in about 5 years, all resolved quickly).
Just to clarify, the peering issue is only during the evening peak period (7pm - 11pm ish), for the rest of the day there is no issue so if you aren't having an issue is it perhaps because you aren't hitting that peak period? If you aren't getting the issue even during the peak period then you are very lucky.
Guess which time ALL of the above downloads were referring to?
Noticed this too
Ironically, my connection seems a hell of a lot slower since the "bye bye to buffering" upgrade.
Re: Noticed this too
My connection seems a hell of a lot faster since my "bye bye to Virgin Media" upgrade.
Re: Noticed this too
Mine too - so i downgraded to 60Mb.
It's better now...
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who spins his mouse round and around the buffering "hourglass".
I experience this on VM "National Broadband" (ADSL)
I have the problem on a daily basis. Although my ADSL connection is fast for normal downloads, and gaming pings are acceptable, youtube buffers big time (haven't really tried other video streaming services). So it's apparently not restricted to fibre optic customers.
It's such a PITA to change providers though that I am battling on.
I think I know what is going on
Bargaining is in progress - this is exactly why VM is being so cagey about it.
There was an excellent chapter in this book about where Internet meets Humans:
"Tubes: A Journey to the Center of the Internet"
...about the annual conference in the U.S. where the real horse-trading about Peering takes place.
Read it and see if you agree!
The book was serialised in "Book of the Week" on BBC Radio 4 which is where I heard it.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01ljxt4 sadly no longer available on the iPlayer.
Re: I think I know what is going on
What week was it? I might have access to another service that I can get at the archive.
I'm not the biggest fan of VM (In fact I can't stand them and I'm only with them because previous experience of other ISPs suggests the BT line to my house is made up of cotton wool), but I've been using Netflix with no issues.I haven't tried YouTube or iPlayer recently.
The point of this rant though, is that if I did experience these problems, and I'm sure others who are experiencing the problems are in the same boat, then I would have nowhere else to go, as the other ISPs can't supply a HD stream (or a low resolution stream for that matter) without lots of buffering at all.
So one of two things needs to happen. VM need to be treat like a monopoly in the areas where they effectively are and have their arm twisted to give the service their customers are paying for, or BT need to pull their finger out and finish this fibre optic roll out before the rest of the world discovers something twice as fast again, and we get left behind, again.
Was going to look at virgin but wont bother
Was thinking Virgin were one of the better providers however after having heard they were awful from a relative and now having read this I won't even consider them - sky it is :)
Re: Was going to look at virgin but wont bother
I think you needed this icon for your post!
Re: Was going to look at virgin but wont bother
SKY!?!?!? - my girlfriend had Sky until they kept putting the price up, then tried charging her for services she did not have or want.
DON'T DO IT! get a FREESAT box and someone else's phone/internet service (unless of course you are desperate for Sky's excess of sport channels.
Any company that has gambling ads on it's home page should be avoided, they are greedy immoral scumbags.
Re: scum
Don't be too harsh. You'd probably get faster internet with gambling companies.
Re: scum
Ask cisco, they always go high end along with porn guys. They run the most reliable part of internet since the start.
That card deck and nude lady must load fast or customer goes to another site.
If I owned a company needing ultra secure and reliable web, ex xxx and gambling personnel would be my first choice with no visitors at work policy ;-)
I get this problem a lot. I have always then run a speedtest.net test, seen high performance, done a pingtest.net and seen great performance and thought it was YouTube or iPlayer servers under too much load as I don't download enough to be bandwidth throttled. What a fool I have been.
This, with Virgin's non-Superhub [I need a solution to this] has severely diminished my view of the Virgin brand.
Re: Numptie
Most ISPs have great throughput on speedtest.net. I wonder why...
It took me an extra 14 minutes to watch an hour long show on iPlayer last night. Still, at least it gave me time to put their relentless junkmail in the recycling.
Orange are the same
Avoid Orange as well - awful network
Re: Orange are the same
When I switched from Virgin ADSL to Orange (now EE, if you believe the stupid mailshot I got earlier in the week), the improvement was dramatic. Everybody in the house commented how much better they were finding it.
After about 3 months, the throughput started dropping, and even though I upgraded the line to ADSL2+ (which was strange, because when I switched, I'm sure I was sold 'the fastest service available from your exchange', but still had to upgrade to 2+ later), it is pretty poor. Pretty much any streaming service I have tried stutters, and not always at the times of day you would expect it to.
I must go back in my firewall throughput logs to see where it really dropped.
Do / can they cache a lot of this stuff? i'd have thought that since they can provide iplayer on their set top boxes they could provede cache based access to iplayer with a bit of redirection jiggery-pokery. Harder to do with youtube, but i'd have thought it would pay them to at least cache popular vids.
Re: Cache?
You mean the squid way of caching? Not sure if it would work for drm.
If they do squid, they should remind the massive potential privacy issues which squid authors themselves state in its man page.
Squid is perfect for corporate, even home.creates miracles especially for system updates, facebook , youtube but once it runs at isp level, it is very open to abuse or even black hats.

November, 2003
Cloth, 288 pages,
"For Dodge, the Americans running things in Baghdad have learned little from the British experience in Iraq. This book ought to be required reading for them." — Mike Schuster, NPR, "All Things Considered"
"Dodge analyzes what he describes as the failure of the British nation-building in the 1920s. . . . [I]t is not out of place to point out one important implication of his account for the Anglo-American invasion and occupation. It is that there are longstanding limits to the use of high-tech weaponry and air power in effectively ruling a conquered population, even in the task of counterinsurgency." — Juan Cole, The Nation
"As postwar Iraq struggles forward, Toby Dodge's book has many lessons. Inventing Iraq is primarily a cold-eye analysis of Britain's failures as an occupying power after the first world war. . . . Dodge's book is a powerful warning to look at countries in their own cultural and historical context." — Jonathan Steele, The Guardian (UK)
"Toby Dodge of Britain's Warwick University—and author ofInventing Iraq, a superb recent book on the mandate—points out the ways in which coalition authorities today are making the same mistakes as the British did 80 years ago." — Michael Elliott, Time Magazine
"[Dodge] offers compelling analogies and pointed commentary on how the United States might still be able to avoid repetition of some of the U.K.'s more serious mistakes. . . . Dodge recognizes that much of what is happening in Iraq today is the result of past events, and thus less amenable to after-the-fact corrective action." — Edward L. Peck, Middle East Policy
"The best of the policy provocative studies is Toby Dodge's book,Inventing Iraq . . . Dodge argues that the creation of the state of Iraq under a mandate system represented a break with traditional territorial imperialism and signaled the beginning of the end of British international dominance." — Judith S. Yaphe, Middle East Journal
"Dodge examines contemporary and historical experiences from macro to micro perspectives. . . . The parallels between current conditions in Iraq and those that shaped the interwar years provide valuable insight to a country whose troubles have origins in the flawed policies of an earlier era. . . . Recommended." — Choice
"Toby Dodge's Inventing Iray is an excellent title for the authoritative work..." — Roy M. Melbourne, American Diplomacy
"Dodge builds a convincing case that, should the Americans continue with prescriptions that bear little relation to where Iraq is now, they risk...denying the Iraqi people "the chance at getting the better life they so richly deserve."" — Martin Bunton, International Journal
"Toby Dodge correctly depicts Iraq as a failed state arising from failed British policies and administrations early in the twentieth century...The audience for such commentary is wide." — Roger Adelson, American Historical Review
"Inventing Iraq is a timely book with important implications for today's foreign policy and international development communities." — Derick W. Brinkerhoff, Public Administration
"It is a good book, and it is timely." — International Journal of Middle East Studies
"Most interesting and original, from the point of view of theoretical vigour and empirical richness. Dodge argues against 'transhistorical' or essentialist views of late colonialism and also shows, very convincingly, the multifaceted nature of colonial practice and the often widely divergent views of colonial officials...well written...an exceptionally interesting piece of work." — Peter Sluglett, University of Utah
"A very good piece of work in every respect: extensive research, familiarity and mastery of the secondary literature, well organised and lucid, conceptually sophisticated, with theoretical themes woven into the fabric of the substantive analysis." — Sami Zubeida, Birkbeck College, University of London
"This fine, lucid book is absolutely essential reading for anyone desiring to understand how profoundly history shapes the current disastrous situation in Iraq, and it shows how terrible is the price for ignoring it." — Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Arab Studies, Middle East Institute, Columbia University
"This book is essential for an understanding of Iraqi history and the challenges that we are facing there today. " — Senator Joseph Biden (D-DE)

Zayn: You were a little late, like, a few minutes, to get home from the skating rink. You had wanted to skate a session, just yourself, and Zayn gave you the go-ahead. You were supposed to be home at 11:00, but you walked in the door at 11:04. Wow, a whole 4 minutes late.
"So...where have you been?"
"Skating rink, where else?"
"You're late."
"Wow, by how much, 4 whole fucking minutes?"
"Do NOT swear at me, ever fucking again! You got it?"
"Yea..like I'm really going to listen to that." He shoved you against the wall, and when you hit, you cracked it. You got out of the wall- yes, you were stuck in it, and ran to your room, as fast as you could. You didn't even notice the blood that was shooting out of your arm and back, until you felt something wet press against your back. It was your shirt, and it was now soaked with blood all over the back of it. You left a bit of blood on the wall, and when Zayn noticed it, he flipped on himself.
"What the fuck did I just do to Janel? Damn it, she's bleeding. I don't even.....JANEL! BABE, COME HERE! Your back's bleeding."
"It's not like you care, considering that you are the one who did it! If you wouldn't have shoved me into the wall, I wouldn't be bleeding, nor would the wall be cracked."
"Shit, babe. Just come here. I'll get the wall fixed later, but right now, you are more important. Your back is bleeding."
"That wasn't the fucking- ow- case five damn minutes- ow- ago!"
"Janel, please, don't be like this. We are going to get your back stitched up, and you will be fine."
"Yea, and when I wear a bikini, it'll be noticable, and then what do I tell them? That you pushed me into a wall?"
"I'm sorry, boo, now let's go. You're losing more and more blood by the second." He sees the back of your shirt as you walk past him, to go to the car.
"Uh...babe, your shirt....is covered in blood, and I'm about to pass out."
"Ignore the damn blood, and come on! Do you want me to bleed out?"
"No. That would be bad for both of us."
"Well, then, come on!"
"Yea, to the hospital!" The whole way there, Zayn is swearing to himself, saying that he should have more self-control. 4 minutes isn't enough to get mad over, but for you, that's enough time to get shoved into a wall, and it takes less time than that, even, to pass out, due to blood loss. Once you walked into the hospital, the nurses spent no time getting you into a room. 30 minutes later, both your arm and back were stitched up, and you were released.
"Zayn, listen here. I am in some pain right now, so please, no more using me to crack a wall."
"Will you shut the fuck up, before I shut you up."
"What are you going to do? Slap me?"
"No, worse. Rough kissing." You hate that, so you shut up, and you didn't say a word, unless Zayn directly was speaking to you, for close to 2 weeks. That taught Zayn a lesson to not use his girlfriend to crack a wall, as his punching bag, or harm her in any way, even if he really wanted to.
Niall: "Babe, get out of my way!" He just got home from the club, and it strongly resembled. You stepped aside, and he fell into the couch.
"Would you like some help?"
"You're not my damn mom, geez!"
"Niall James Horan, I was asking if you wanted some help getting up."
"Shut the fuck up, Janel!"
"No!" He got up, and shoved you, sending you flying into the lamp, competely shattering it. Suddenly, the drunkness wore off, and he became more aware of what he just did to you.
"Janel, I am soo sorry. I can't believe myself. Want some help, love?"
"D-don't hurt m-me."
"Babe, I can't live now. You're hurt. My princess is hurt. Are you OK?"
"Yea, just my arm..is cut, but I'll be fine."
"I am so drunk, I hurt you."
"No fuck, Niall."
"I promise, from now on, even if I'm drunk, I won't hurt you."
"You better not. Now, get your sorry ass in bed, before I rock you to it."
Liam: Liam? Hurting anyone? Yea, right! You must think that Liam is a bad boy.....he's not!
Louis: You and him were having a game of basketball at the park, and Niall was keeping score. You beat him when the game was over, and he checked the scoring. Niall had done it correctly.
"You little bitch! How could you beat me?"
"Practice. I come down here when you're on tour, and 1-up you." He shoves you, without warning, and you fly into the soccer post.

This blog features news on local food finds, tales from home cooks and inspiration to help you have fun in your own kitchen.
Home Cooking with Jennifer Brooks Lane
Home Cooking is a regular feature on The Front Burner that offers a peek at how home cooks around the Fredericksburg area work in their kitchens. If you'd like to answer our questionnaire, download it here and return your responses to firstname.lastname@example.com with a digital photo of yourself, or pass it along to anyone you think would like to participate.
Name: Jennifer Brooks Lane, proprietor, with her husband, Chris Lane, of GreenHearts Farm in Caroline County
Tell us who you are and why you cook.
I'm a cook who has been cooking since I could read. My very first memory is of food at 11 months old. My grandparents raised pigs on their 25 acres in Reva, Virginia when I was a small child and after dinner was over and the corn kernels where mostly eaten off the cob, my father picked me up out of my high chair and tucked me into his jacket, with my little head poking out. We walked down from the house with my little blond curls bobbing up and down and I can remember seeing my older brother's feet flying down the hill with corn cobs in his hand. We got to the ricky-ticky shed and fenced in area and my brother climbed up the cattle gate. He lobbed a corn cob or two over the fence I and I did my best at tossing to the happy pigs behind the gate.
I had the most delicious childhood imaginable because I had full reign in the kitchen. My grandmother on my father's side was a gourmet chef and each meal was an international delight full of exotic flavors and a completely artistic presentation at each family gathering. My grandmother on my mother's side grew up in Clover, Virginia on a tenant farm until she married Wyatt Ashby Mills, who was from a farming family in Lynchburg, Virginia. When they married and moved to Reva, they bought enough land to farm, raise pigs and four wonderful children, including my momma, Sue Brooks.
At 15 years old, as soon as I obtained my learner's permit and a check book, I did most of the family grocery shopping and preparing the foods. The Brooks family of Culpeper, Virginia kept dinners in the formal dining room every evening and dinner was served promptly, by myself and my sister Julie, at 6:30 pm. Blessings were said, the food was in 3 courses and old business and new business of the day were discussed using mild manners and the master of ceremonies is my father, David Brooks. He sits at the head of the table and we children fall in line, very proper like. You would not leave the table until you asked to be excused or if you were switching out salad plates for dinner plates. I LOVED it!
I wrote my first cookbook the summer of 1999 when I was 16. It is a very crude compilation of my favorite vegan recipes because during that time, there was hardly an Internet, I don't remember going to a Borders, and our local bookstore carried the Joy of Cooking, which of course I had to have.
I have written five cookbooks since. When most young people were out and about doing social things in the summer time, I was sitting at home on a laptop, hunched over, writing a cookbook at 18 years old. I did that every summer until my sophomore year at Longwood University. I was writing a Cajun cookbook and got so into it that I flunked most of my classes and had to go home. I think I threw that cookbook away. I'm quite sure I did.
My latest cookbook, the GreenHearts Farm electronic cookbook is to me, magical. It is a vegan, gluten-free cookbook that travels all around the world looking for the tastiest way to enjoy a restricted diet due to allergies, ideals or neurosis. I have my very own line of spices that I use in everything and they are so very versatile. It would take a lifetime to show case them properly, which I plan to do on a daily basis on my website. I pair my spices with local fare that can be found at nearby farmer's markets for those wishing to eat a locavore diet.
Describe your cooking style in three words.
Local ingredients from the market, BANG! spice, with a dash of flare!
How did you learn to cook?
I learned to cook from my grandmothers and by reading copious amounts of cookbooks from cover to cover.
Grandma Mills is as Southern as the day is long. She has one recipe book from clippings and scribblings from decades past. I can't even read them. She doesn't even look at them either. The pencil marking is so old. I told her, when I was about 18 that I wanted her to will it to me. I don't think she understood how serious the request is from me. She just throws a cup of this into that, and adds a dot of butter and sugar to this and fini! Fried chicken, biscuits with freezer jam, green beans with bacon and corn pudding is on the table.
My Grandmother Woellner was a gourmet cook. She would take me on trips to buy beignet mix at 13 years of age, taught me to sew, get on stage and act her heart out, paint a picture with charming words and dazzle you with a smile. Oh she was grand.
Favorite cookbook?
Favorite cookbook would have to be my antique Joy of Cooking cookbook from 1947 given to me as a wedding present from one of my oldest and dearest friends, Millie, Melissa Freakley.
What is one dish on your menu this week that you're excited about?
Deep fried Samosa Cornucopia's. I love them. I make a big pot of tomato chutney during the summertime with the bumper crop of tomatoes from the GreenHearts garden. It's a day long process but when it is finished I can and freeze it to be enjoyed all year long. I make huge batches of samosas, for which I can find most of the ingredients at Farm To Families indoor market and the spices, well, I love spice, knowing where it comes from, how it is harvested, the health benefits, how to make medicinal cordials with them, you know everything fun!
What is one thing that must be in your pantry at all times?
Dried: I have to have mustard seeds, curry powder, cumin, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, ginger, dried peppers and all of my fixin's for my BANG! spices. I don't think I could cook a meal without BANG! It just wouldn't taste the same anymore.
Fresh: Onions, potatoes, garlic, ginger root, apples and greens.
What one kitchen gadget could you not live without?
My spice grinder. I don't know where I would be without one. Such flavor to be had when you grind something yourself. It's one way to razzle-dazzle your food.
It's 6 p.m., the people in your household are hungry and you just walked in from work and need to get something satisfying on the table as soon as possible. What's your favorite thing to whip up in this situation?
Oh, just for fun, fresh popped corn, the old-timey way my Grandma Mills did it. Just 2 Tbsp. oil and ¼ cup popping corn in a pot and shake till done. Sprinkle on my SHEBANGARANG! And serve it on cones made of brown wax paper. Takes about five minutes and they are staples in my pantry.
It's a snowy Sunday, you've just done the grocery shopping and have the rest of the day to spend in the kitchen cooking a meal that will bring comfort. What's for dinner?
I just want dessert. SHEBANG! Rice pudding and Fresh Hot Cocoa with real cocoa powder on the stovetop and local milk. Then ceremoniously, sitting down to watch It's a Wonderful Life and enjoying every bite of pudding and every sip of cocoa. That's a happy thought indeed.
What is your favorite dish to make for pot-luck dinners?
My BANGARANG! Black Eyed Peas
1 package dried black-eyed peas, cooked to package directions
2 (14 oz) cans of diced tomatoes or 6-8 fresh, diced tomatoes
1 Tbsp. oil or butter
1 chopped onion
3 cloves minced garlic
3 – 4 Tbsp. BANGARANG! Signature Seasoning
2 Tbsp. sugar
fresh copped cilantro
Cook BEP's according to package directions. Drain and set aside. In a large pot or skillet, heat your oil to medium and cook your garlic and onion until translucent. Add the BEPs, BANGARANG!, tomatoes and sugar. Cook while stirring occasionally for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in a bunch of cilantro leaves and enjoy while warm.
Do you have a favorite food source in the Fredericksburg region?
In the Fredericksburg region my favorite place to go with my sister, Julie, is to Sammy T's and sit outside at the little bistro tables, wear our sunglasses. I get to pretend that I'm hip and forget all about my chores on the farm while we split their falafel salad. Sometimes there is a young man outside who plays the saddest, sweetest songs on a violin, while people pass by with shopping bags or their college sweetheart. There is a certain energy and hurried excitement in the downtown area that sits well with my soul.

godheadSilo, with the Melvins, Wednesday, April 12, at the Fox Theatre, is the name chosen by two guys who don't care much for musical frills like harmony and melody: They just wanna rock! Bassist Mike and drummer Dan--a duo so dynamic they don't need a guitarist--kick out the sort of punishing, cataclysmic caterwaul that most of us associate with chainsaws and cattle prods. But they do what they do with such endearing charm and style that before long you'll be champing at the bit to pinch their little cheeks and tell them how cute they are. As for Silo live, the pair call to mind Beavis and Butt-head composing "cool" tunes in their parents' basement, or Wally and the Beav fronting their own death-metal band. Either way, you can be relatively sure that A&R folks hate this stuff. And that makes them a winner in my book.

CAPE CORAL, Fla.- The state of Florida is spending 5.6-million dollars to install signs, warning of problems on the two bridges into and out of Fort Myers. The DOT will install 9 dynamic message signs, with up to the minute information on traffic tie-ups and crashes on the bridges, or approaches to the bridges. DOT also will install signs advising of alternate routes.
"This will save lives and reduce secondary crash injuries. It will improve the transportation network," said Deb Tower, of the state DOT. "A single fender-bender can cause major problems for the traffic on those bridges. We have seen it many times."
Some taxpayers are not convinced.
"We have so many other things that could use that money. Roads need work, bridges need work. I don't see, spending that money on something that does not help all the taxpayers," said Bill Haberingther of North Fort Myers.
Jim Dill agrees.
"People here know the alternate routes if there is a problem on the bridges. Use the money to fix our roads," he told WINK News.
Still, the money is approved and is being spent. The signs should be up and running by this fall. Then, the DOT will consider phase two of the program: that would install warning signs for the two Cape Coral bridges.

Louisiana Politician to Save Economy with Anti-Pajama Law
Still reeling from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the BP oil spill, Louisiana is finally making strides toward recovery thanks to the bold striped-flannel vision of a local parish leader in Shreveport…
Michael Williams, a commissioner in Caddo Parish, Louisiana, is seeking to ban pajamas from the streets after seeing a couple men in public with pajama pants and no underwear, their "private parts about to come out," reports KSDK.
What's the parish leader's rationale? It's not (only) because PJs look, well, less than professional as outerwear. No, he wants to bowdlerize your Snuggie because it's morally bankrupt:
"The moral fiber in our community is dwindling," Williams says. "If not now, when? Because it's pajama pants today, next it will be underwear tomorrow."
With many cities suffering from a depressed economy, high unemployment, and the lasting emotional scars of both natural and man-made disasters, this is a brilliant, totally necessary law. By preventing residents from strutting around town in pajamas, officials are forcing them to purchase new non-pajama clothes, thereby stimulating the local economy.
It remains to be seen whether the proposed law will be a partial pajama ban or a blanket pajama ban. Or whether there will be a blanket blanket ban. There's virtually no limit to the fleece-based solutions to Louisiana's social and economic woes.

A very good friend of mine was killed on his motorcycle last year due to a van driver, using his mobile phone.
The driver got 3 points and a fine, even though the investigation proved the guy was using his phone - so not driving with due care and attention.
This by our very own laws is an offense!
I have set up a petition that I hope with enough signatures can be presented to government for a change in the law.

In this case, I would say the difference is, conversing, singing etc you still have both hands on the wheel? Or should have.. whilst trying to text, or dial a number is patently far worse for taking your eyes off the road, than singing to your radio, or talking to a passenger..?
My friend was killed because he was using a hand held fone, not listening to it thru a speaker..

Can anyone tell me basically what is the difference to conversing with a passenger in the back seat or front or listening on the radio and perhaps singing along or the sat nav and listening to its instructions possibly looking at ghe screen at the same time...............and having a conversation on a mobile phone that is not in hand but on speaker.
They all seem to me to take away the concentration of a driver from the actual task of driving.and could all be responsible for a lapse in the drivers concentration that could lead to injury or death.
We are also to blame, well the manufacturers are in that we can get all sorts of Apps in our helmets. whether its sat nav or music or phone. surely they are all the same.....dangerous.[ and we should know better.]

The HUNKer Games: Team Gale vs. Team Peeta!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
I think I was [Team] Gale until he started getting a little too trigger-happy. Or maybe first Peeta and then Gale or Gale, then Peeta? I went back and forth. I flip-flopped.
So says Jennifer Lawrence in the latest issue of Seventeen, underscoring just how difficult it is for fans of The Hunger Games to decide between Gale and Peeta, the two young men right smack in the middle of Katniss Everdeen's dangerous life.
But decide Katniss and company must, as Liam Hemsworth takes on the key role of Gale in the upcoming big screen adaption and Josh Hutcherson plays Peeta.
Rewatch The Hunger Games trailer now to familiarize yourself with these two and then choose a side:
Team GaleClick Here ToVote for Gale
Team PeetaClick Here ToVote for Peeta
Katniss has to make up her mind in The Hunger Games and now so do you: Are you a member of Team Gale or Team Peeta? View Poll »
Peeta is the best! Honestly i really hated Gale in MJ so as character of course the best is Peeta, regarding Katniss feelings Katniss lways loved Peeta because she in THG pretend but not all she always have a deep feelings for him that go to develop in the all trilogy. So it was so CLEAR that in the end Katniss stay with Peeta. Katniss loves him in a romantic way. She loves also Gale but in a different way he is like a friend and brother for her. So no love triangle there isn't is just apparent. Last thing JOSH HUTCHERSON IS AMAZING GUY AND SUPER HOT!
Team gale duh! Hottie!
Team gale duh! Hottie!
Team gale duh! Hottie!
Team Peeta. He would do anything for Katniss and will always put her first. When Gale had the opportunity to run away with Katniss, he choose not when he found our about the districts beginning to rebel.
Team Peeta all the way!!
Peeta genuinly loved Katniss (much more than Gale did) and katniss and gale are much better off as good friends. katniss and peeta share chemistry that she and gale could never have. peeta has always loved katniss, and even when he was hijacked in mockingjay, he recovered because their love is so strong. TEAM BAKER ALL THE WAY!
peeta mellark<3
Ehx id everyone 4 peeta? Ok, i'm also 4 peeta xD
Team gale because peeta strangles katniss and puts her in hospital no one has mentioned that katniss and gale would be perfect toghter but I'm happy that gale will find someone who will realise that he would do anything to care for them peeta is just to sad and soppy and that gale looked after her family while she was in the games and I think katniss could win the games all on her own her and gale would just be magnificent toghter so I think Suzanne. Made a mistake because last time I checked some one who strangles you and calls you a mutt is not a perfect man Love you gale so hot and sweet xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Gale was there for Katniss in Mockinjay peeta should have the night lock Team Gale for life Also Gale was true to Katniss and peeta wormed his way in to Katniss life
peeta is smoking hot so F*** you haters

text: The Brazilian Blowout Hoax, Part 2: Fed OSHA Botches Study, Media Blames Company by Lawrence Meyers 22 Nov 2011 post a comment Share This: Contrary to recent media reports, the Brazilian Blowout hair treatment is safe for use. You'd never know it, though, because the mainstream media has been perpetuating one myth after another about Brazilian Blowout while ignoring the facts. Last time, I wrote about a hatchet job made to appear as a legitimate study by Oregon OSHA [Note to Editor: Please link to Part 1] that was covered ad-nauseum by the media. Yet, when a respected scientific association issued a balanced statement regarding Brazilian Blowout, the media spun it to make it appear that the company was fighting regulatory sampling of the product. To wit: The American Chemistry Council, which actually manufactures formaldehyde, released a statement ten days before Oregon OSHA unveiled its biased "report". "We encourage the company that makes the Brazilian Blowout to cooperate fully with government officials to ensure that the product meets federal and state standards for formaldehyde use". Brazilian Blowout fully cooperated and, as thanks, was subjected to a biased and editorialized government report from Liberal environmentalists at Oregon OSHA. Yet Time Magazine would have you believe that "The chemical industry is actually sort of coming down on the side of regulators and activist groups on the issue", while quoting hack anti-capitalist enviro-wackos like Siobhan O'Connor. The company's side of the story, however, was omitted. So, with the house already stacking the odds against Brazilian Blowout, Federal OSHA entered the fray. OSHA's Big Boo-Boo In air sampling data reports obtained exclusively by this reporter, I can confirm that OSHA did indeed conduct 24 air sample tests in several salons. Brazilian Blowout passed every single test in OSHA's exposure limits, known as the Action Limit (AL - the level where OSHA regulations take effect) Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL - an 8-hour time-weighted average) and Short-Term Exposure Limit (STEL - a 15 minute exposure measurement). But a funny thing happened during one of these short-term exposure tests. As the report below details, one sample was taken for 35 minutes instead of the 15 minutes required under OSHA regulations. One would expect that if you sample the air for more than twice the period you are supposed to, anything you find in that sample is going to be more than twice as concentrated as it otherwise would. Sure enough, that sample yielded 2.5 parts per million (ppm) of formaldehyde, above OSHA's limit of 2.0 ppm. Rather than discard this sample as protocol dictates, OSHA retained it. In fact, as the report indicates, the sample was received in OSHA's laboratory by a functionary, who passed it on to an analyst, who analyzed the sample, who had another employee check his calculations, before the entire report was approved by a supervisor. And none of them noticed the improper 35 minute sample, or if they did, they did nothing about it. How is it that a mistake that a high-school student would commit somehow made it all the way through OSHA's internal controls? Are there any such controls? Why was it missed? What the heck is going on inside OSHA that this critical error wasn't caught? And why is it that OSHA didn't tell the public the truth -- that all 24 samples passed the test, but that one faulty sample did not -- and instead caused a firestorm by holding up that faulty sample as "proof" of Brazilian Blowout's "danger"? More Media Brilliance On April 11, 2011, OSHA leapt into the media cistern with a press release. It's a Hazard Alert! Included in this gaseous emission is the phrase, "During Federal OSHA investigations, air tests showed formaldehyde at levels above OSHA's limits in salons using Brazilian Blowout Acai Professional Smoothing Solution..." in big bold letters. I asked an OSHA spokesman via Email about this blatantly false statement. To date, they have not replied. But never mind me. Did the media investigate OSHA's results? Did anyone from the media ask to see the reports? If they did, would they even be able to interpret them? Did the media ask the company what their reaction was to the results? Why didn't anyone from the media discover OSHA's enormous blunder that I found? Because they were too busy "reporting". Here's a partial List of Shame -- I want to nail some of the small-time folk, too, because they could've had a real story and really broken big time if they'd actually done the research: Bryan Walsh at Time Deidre Imus at Fox Hillary Ross at HuffPo. USA Today Matthew Perrone at the AP Wendy Ryan at ABC Action News Gannett News The Chicago Tribune Kathy Muldoon at The Oregonian Amity Addrishi Bakersfield Eyewitness News KVOA in Tucson NY Daily News Independent Lab Confirms Safety of Brazilian Blowout The other big story that the media ignored is that a company that routinely performs indoor air quality tests (Health Science Associates) tested Brazilian Blowout's product. The results showed -- again -- that the product's formaldehyde release came in far below all of OSHA's limits. But you wouldn't know it unless you knew A Mom In Red High Heels, who reported it in her blog. That's it. So at this point in the story, Brazilian Blowout is being attacked from all sides, thanks to a witch hunt solely the result of incompetent and/or biased government agencies. With OSHA now throwing pies, it was only a matter of time before a grandstanding Liberal politician entered the fray -- and along with him, the FDA. All for a product repeatedly proven to be safe, when used as directed. Next time: Hardcore Liberal politican + FDA = business as usual.

The mother of the accused robber, gunned down Monday night by a Walgreen's customer, said she forgives the shooter.
Witnesses said Marquail Thomas, 18, walked into the drugstore at 61st and Northwest Radial, with a sawed off shotgun. He and alleged accomplice, 17 year-old Angelo Douglas, were stopped by Harry McCullough III, who was carrying a loaded handgun.
McCullough shot Thomas several times, wounds that proved fatal. Kim Thomas, said she's certain McCullough is not sleeping at night, having taken her son's life.
However, her son's stepfather, Terry Thomas, called the shooting "excessive." And Kim disputed the labeling of McCullough as a "good Samaritan" or "hero."
"A good Samaritan," she said, "would have made sure nobody was hurt." She didn't believe her son would have actually hurt anybody during the alleged robbery.
She added that her son had become "distant" lately and depressed. The happiest she had seen him recently was Friday, the last time she saw him. She's just beginning to find closure and believes her son is now "at peace."

Posted Thursday, June 14, 2012 --- 7:30 a.m.
APPLETON, Wis. (AP) -- Attorneys for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Green Bay want a new trial in a civil lawsuit won by two victims of clergy sex abuse.
A jury last month awarded $700,000 to brothers Todd and Troy Merryfield in the Outagamie County fraud case.
The brothers claimed the diocese fraudulently misrepresented the safety of former priest John Feeney when it installed him as pastor at a church in the 1970s. They were 12 and 14 when he molested them in 1978.
Dioceses attorneys filed a motion for a new trial last week. They claim a juror's response on a questionnaire demonstrates the juror was biased.
John Peterson, attorney for Troy Merryfield, tells The Post-Crescent (http://post.cr/KpEzTs ) the diocese's attempt to undo the verdict shows it's "running out of options."

Reservoir Dogs
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
The first time I saw Reservoir Dogs it literally blew me away. Excellent film and brilliantly acted!!! The dialogue is very original (especially Mr. Brown's interpretation of Madonna's "Like a Virgin"). Seriously one of my favorite movies that cannot be missed!
excellent movie
It was a tough choice between this and Pulp Fiction as the best Tarantino film thus far. Honestly, the rawness of Reservoir Dogs wins out and the fact that it feels less manufactured than Pulp Fiction (the dancing scene with Travolta, for example - Walken's monologue for another). Great performances and excellent dialogue.
If you're going to watch a Tarantino film it should be for the love of dialogue and unusual characters. This film has been criticized as being exessively bloody. But in this film the violence is supposed to be secondary to the converstaions of the characters who just so happen to be ruthless criminals.
So in between the scenes of murder and mayhem it's interesting to hear these petty criminals talk about mundane things. They argue like children when tensions rise. This film won accoldaes for it's novel and minimalist approach to a crime drama film -- and rightly so.
NoticesAdd a Notice
Coarse Language: Don't watch if you're easily offended bad swear words because every other word is profane in this film.
Violence: Sadism set to the greatest hits of the 70's.
