216. It's the impressive number of YouTube videos I found these last two months, making partial or complete use of Arachno SoundFont.Whether being original tracks, tutorials, video game music or walkthroughs, song or movie music covers in MIDI format, I had to make a tribute to all YouTube users who chose Arachno SoundFont to power their tracks, sheet music and video game sessions.Among those 216 newly added videos, half have been released on YouTube these last two months; a nice proof of some users' huge activity, who can even release several videos per day!Among the newly added users on this website, I invite you to discover the videos released by pianist1998 (a very active user, who writes various sheet music and plays thems through MuseScore, Synthesia and others, just like BobGmbH does) and sonickun95 (who produces excellent video game music covers with FL Studio, exclusively using Arachno SoundFont).You can also discover new works by Sakai Ryuuji (MrZaTaNaX), PiMan31415926535879, Jacob Kowanetz, Andrew Porter and Zuri Watu, as well as "Black MIDIs" by GeekyMusic, TheSqrtminus1 or Gingeas, who are always trying to beat their own record of building MIDI covers using hundreds of thousands, not to say millions of notes.And if you're a video game addict, you should have a look at the videos released by David O'Neill, Runefox and Paul Peter, just like those of The Ultimate Doomer and Bionicman (Xeros612), to name a few.The growing popularity of Arachno SoundFont, which has been downloaded more than 60 000 times in nearly 4 years, is the best reward I could ever expect. Big thanks to all of you!
Today, I'm releasing some new arrangements from The Legend of Kyrandia, a fantasy adventure game developed by Westwood Studios in 1992.This new MIDI arrangement video covers 6 music tracks from the introduction and first level of the game: the main theme, followed by three other introduction tracks, and two other tracks heard by the player as soon as he starts to play: "Speech of the Land" and "Outside Brandon's Home".All tracks are from the original MIDI files by Frank Klepacki, that I converted from the original Roland MT-32 synthesizer map (the de facto standard for PC MIDI soundcards at this time) to GM (General MIDI) tracks, so they can be played with Arachno SoundFont. Hope you'll like this new addition! Of course, you can download all the audio tracks from my SoundCloud account, or directly in MP3 or OGG formats, both archives including the MIDI files.Moreover, I also added some new arrangements from the Arachno SoundFont users, and a link to the MuseScore open-source notation software, which is widely used by MIDI enthusiasts to write sheet music, along with Arachno SoundFont.
My Arachno SoundFont users have been very active these last months.I've first been very excited to find that a user named Don Allen released a SoundFont named Timbres of Heaven, which is partly based on Arachno SoundFont. With another man named Dan West, they are members of a Yahoo! group named MIDKAR, which releases MIDI arrangements on YouTube featuring Don Allen's SoundFont. I'm currently planning to update the website with a new section dedicated to SoundFonts using instruments, presets or samples from Arachno SoundFont, like Timbres of Heaven.I also had the real pleasure to discover BobGmbH's videos, a very active YouTube user known for his "IMPOSSIBLE REMIXES" videos. BobGmbH uses Arachno SoundFont to record, using Synthesia, piano covers of famous tracks, either being from games or movies, or even original tracks.Additionally, some well-known Arachno SoundFont users, like Cose Vidal and Ultimate Doomer, released some excellent arrangements worth listening to. Ultimate Doomer has released, among a few others, a new recording of "Grabbag", the main theme from the Duke Nukem 3D game, in its extended version (the same as the one you could hear on the CD-ROM version of the game), thanks to the original composer, Lee Jackson, who found the time, at least, to release the full, complete version of the original MIDI file.NightFright updated his Duke3D Arachno Music Pack to feature this new track; so, I also updated the pack hosted on this website to reflect this change.All this new stuff is now available on the Arachno SoundFont users page, which now features an updated layout to reflect the hard work of the most active Arachno SoundFont users, and their latest releases. This page will ultimately feature some information on each author, which will differenciate it from the MIDI arrangements made by Arachno SoundFont users page, which will remain focusing on the arrangements rather than the authors themselves. That said, I also updated this page so you can now filter the arrangements list by author.I'll continuously (and silently) update these webpages with the new arrangements I'll find, like I did these last months. I just wanted to feature the latest additions with this new page layout and website update to thank you all for your support.I should also update my Dell Venue 8 Pro review very soon, to cover the use of the GPS chip which actually sits in the 3G/HSPA+ versions of the tablet, which has been discovered thanks to the investigations of the Hardware.fr forum members.
I recently bought a Dell Venue 8 Pro, an 8-inch Windows 8.1 touchscreen tablet, allowing you to execute the very same applications than those you can already run on a Windows PC.And, after more than 15 days of extensive use, I followed the advice given by members of the French Dell Venue 8 Pro topic on Hardware.fr, and decided to write my own review in the Articles section.I decided to do so after having spent many hours to choose this tablet, facing difficulties because of the lack of complete reviews of this tablet, notably on some features I was very interested in (stylus, external screen display).This review thus covers, over nearly 20 pages, all the features I tought it'd be worth mentioning, even more after reading Pierre Lecourt's excellent review (in French) of the Asus Transformer T100.Hoping that my experience will help you to make your choice, if you're also looking for an 8-inch touchscreen tablet running Windows 8.1, either being the Dell or one of its competitors (Acer Iconia W4-820, Lenovo Miix 2 8, Lenovo ThinkPad 8, Asus VivoTab Note 8 and Toshiba Encore WT8).Important note: this review has been translated by myself from the French article I released on this website some days ago. Given the extensive length of this publication, the English version may still contain very approximative and mistaken language translations. If you notice grammar or spelling mistakes in this review, don't hesitate to report them to me. Thanks!
Thanks to NightFright and other Arachno SoundFont users, I discovered some additional software to help you convert your MIDI files into audio files (like MP3) in a single, hassle-free process.To promote these software products, I thought that I had to build a new Links section dedicated to SoundFont software, into which I moved CoolSoft VirtualMIDISynth, BASSMIDI Driver and SynthFont, which were previously featured into the Arachno SoundFont promoters page.In this new section, you'll find AIMP3 and Piston Software's Direct MIDI To MP3 Converter which will help you to record your MIDI files with sounds from Arachno SoundFont.Note that Piston Software supports Arachno SoundFont, and offers a 30% discount to all Arachno SoundFont users with the following coupon code: ARACHNO30. Check this software which will save you many time if you're recording MIDI files into audio files, just like NightFright did to record the Arachno SoundFont video game music packs!I also added two new arrangements recorded by users of Arachno SoundFont: Vengeance" an original composition by Eris Falling (composer of a large number of tracks for additional DOOM levels, such as the Plutonia series), and an awesome cover of "The House of The Rising Sun" by Richard "Ricky" Forhenson.Thank you all for your continuous support!

Good Idea but Cheaply made
GSD from Massachusetts– Verified Buyer
The DC connector is made of cheap plastic that cracks , and i had to re-soder the contacts because they came undone.
Excellent airflow but mediocre quality.
2 Oldtimers from New England– Verified Buyer
It is mounted on our rear view mirror so it oscillates enough to provide air to both front seat passengers - we opted for a car without air conditioning - never again!!

Oscillating stopped after one day. Otherwise, the fan would be fine.

Antonio Orozco was born November 23, 1972, and raised in Barcelona, Spain, by a working-class family. During a trip at the age of 15 to Triana, Sevilla, Orozco was exposed to the music that would change his life forever. His family, originally sevillanos, had roots in the region and its music: flamenco. His family soon relocated to Osuma, in Sevilla, a state known for its vibrant music community. Orozco took up flamenco guitar and began accompanying vocalists as a hobby. In time, his talent for songwriting bubbled to the surface, and he began performing professionally. Playing in bars and train stations, Orozco came to know pianist/producer Xavi Perez, who inspired him to record his own material. In the year 2000 he released his first solo disc, Un Reloj y una Vela, which Perez produced alongside Tato Latorre. Impressively, the record sold over 100,000 copies. Semilla de Silencio was released in 2001. It was also produced by Perez and Latorre, and sold three times as many copies as its predecessor. The 2004 release of his third work, El Principio del Comienzo, produced similar results. His breakout success won him opportunities to perform in the U.S. and all over Latin America. In 2005 Orozco was asked to tour with Juanes on his tour of the Americas, which made possible his live concert DVD, Antonio Orozco -- Tour Edition. Orozco's 2006 release, Cadizfornia, made it onto Billboard's Top 100 European Albums chart. In 2009 he released his sixth studio album, Renovatio. ~ Evan C. Gutierrez, Rovi

One of our biggest battles these days is to keep our head above the water line … not drowning in the tsunami of endless inputs that flood our inbox.
Sure, we need a trusted system to manage it all … but we also need to spend enough time to focus on what really needs to get done.
What is your unique contribution? What is it that only you can do? What will move the needle and really make a difference?
Today, give it a try. Intensely focus on doing first things first. Just that process alone will do wonders.
If you do that, you'll likely discover that no one will miss the parts you didn't do at all.
As a Leader, are you an Architect or just a Handyman?
You need to develop a Delegation Mindset!
Yes, it's sad but true.
If you're a leader and you don't develop a delegation mindset, you'll never get enough done to extend your influence or grow in your organization.
Most importantly, you'll be unable to accomplish the things that only YOU can do.
Do you really have a chance if you don't delegate?
When you look over your shoulder, you probably see the flood waters rising behind … and somewhere deep in your subconscious, you're reminded that you need help.
It's dawning on you that as you seek and take on more responsibility, you'll only have more to do … not less … and you're going to drown if you can't get some help.
Then, you start to notice there is a lot of potential help nearby … others are tapping into that talent pool … but you aren't taking advantage of those resources.
What about only what YOU can do?
You also know that if you don't make time for the things that only you can do, they won't get done … by anyone … ever. Continue reading to get the Delegation Principles checklist
Lose $1Million in 1 Day – and Still Become a Champion
I never thought that Rory McIlroy, a PGA golfer, would be the subject any article I ever wrote, least of all 2 of them.
What a difference a few years makes!
When I wrote about the Magic of True Grit, Rory appeared in an ignominious way.
What do you do when you totally screw up?
In 2011, Rory entered the final day of the Masters Tournament with a 4 stroke lead … and watched it quickly evaporate as his game imploded.
He shot 80 on that final day, the worst score of anyone playing on Sunday. He finished 10 strokes behind the winner, a Masters rookie, Charl Schwartzel.
(The Masters tournament doesn't like to talk about such crass subjects as money … but the one day cost of that catastrophe to Rory WAS OVER $1.3 MILLION!)
He was heartbroken over his performance that day, but held his head high with these words: Continue reading to see the Big Change …
When you consider this simple but insightful quotation, pay close attention to how it applies to your business. We often say, "whatever gets measured, gets done" … or words to that effect. Everything you can count may not be worth counting We can count pennies. But it takes a lot of them to amount to…» See Full Post...

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Police are searching for a Monticello man after they say they found a decomposing body in the crawl space of his home.
Police were asked to check on David Patronis' mother Wednesday, but when they arrived at the home they learned she had died last year. Officers said someone was still collecting her Social Security benefits.
Deputies and K-9 dogs searched the home where the woman lived with Patronis and found a body in the crawl space. The body was too decomposed to identify.
Patronis was not home during the search. The Tallahassee Democrat (http://tinyurl.com/pbfpceq) reports there is a warrant for his arrest.

Wes Durham: "You'd Be Hard Pressed To Find More Impactful Injuries Than What Atlanta's Had."
Carolina Panthers
Buy Panthers Tickets
Full Schedule
Upcoming Games
The Carolina Panthers are faced with yet another critical game on Sunday when they head to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. With a win, the Panthers will clinch the NFC South and a 1st round bye in the playoffs, while also guaranteeing the city a home playoff game for the first time in 5 years. With some help, a Seattle loss to St. Louis, and a Panthers win, Carolina can become the #1 seed in the NFC but first things first this Sunday and to preview this weekend's game, the Voice of the Atlanta Falcons, Wes Durham, joined Taylor Zarzour on The Drive:
Durham on game being a sellout and the news that a lot of Carolina fans are traveling down I-85 to Atlanta: "Well I'd be surprised if they weren't…I'll be surprised if there aren't a lot of Carolina Panthers fans there. It's a hard ticket in Atlanta because of the (Tony)Gonzalez situation but I'm still sure there will be a lot of Panthers fans there….When you get moments like you're gonna get on Sunday for a guy like Tony(Gonzalez), people are going to want to say they were there for his last game."
Durham on injuries and much of an impact they've had on Atlanta: "I think every team can point to injuries, Atlanta's no different…but you'd be hard pressed to find more impactful injuries than what Atlanta's had."
Durham on the Pro Bowl-worthy linebacker duo the Panthers posses in Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis: "Luke Kuechly might have been the steal of the draft, and he's proven to be that, and Thomas Davis is a medical miracle. Guys aren't supposed to do what Thomas Davis is doin but I give him a lot of credit he was a great college player and he's morphed into a really, really fine pro player."

Bedroom Suck Records began as the present tense of Joe Alexander and Sam McCabe, two down-and-out sharehouse types direct from the steamy sauna of Brisbane suburban living. One day the amount of good music snaking out from under the doors of friends and distant relatives became too much to bear, and in early 2009 what became known as 'bedroom suck' was born.
Since then, B-S-R have been honoured to dip our hands into hot vinyl to manufacture records for the likes of Boomgates, Blank Realm, Bitch Prefect, Terrible Truths + more. This year, we celebrate our fifth birthday with celebrations across the country hosted at some of our favourite venues who have helped us from the very beginning. These parties will aim to celebrate how lucky we feel to have worked with so much amazing music over the years, as well as to look forward to what's in store for the label next year.
We will also celebrate this milestone with the release of a double-LP compilation. With a total of 27 tracks, this collection aims to document the label's inception in Brisbane and growth throughout the country. You can also order the compilation paired with a ticket to our birthday parties in Melbourne, Brisbane or Sydney.

November 28, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama will meet with Ukraine's prime minister, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, at the White House Wednesday.
Deputy National Security Adviser Tony Blinken said Sunday the president would consult with Yatsenyuk and that the meeting demonstrated U.S. support for Ukraine.
Blinken says the White House strategy is to mobilize the international community behind Ukraine, isolate Russia for its actions and reassure U.S. allies and partners.
Obama is in Key Largo, Florida, with his family for the weekend, but on Saturday spoke individually with British Prime Minister David Cameron, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and French President Francois Hollande and collectively with the presidents of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
Blinken made his comments on NBC's "Meet the Press."

This Day in Baseball History
15 Fact(s) Found
|For a record price of $10,000, the Cubs, then known as the White Stockings, sell future current NL batting champ and future Hall of Famer Mike Kelly to the Beaneaters. The popular box office draw, who will earn his nickname King while playing in Boston, will continue to be productive, hitting .311 for a three-year span during his first tenure with the team.
|The American Legion baseball program, on the brink of bankruptcy, receives a pledge of $50,000 from Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis and the MLB Advisory Council to continue its development of a national championship program for teenagers. With the much-needed funding, Legion Baseball will continue in 1928, and the following season, teams from every state and the District of Columbia will participate in the youth tournament.
|After playing 19 years with the Senators, Sam Rice ends his career playing one season with the Indians. He will amass 2,987 career hits in his two decades as a player.
|After forty-five years in professional baseball, Braves president Bob Quinn retires as the team's general manager. John, his son, will take his place.
|Ten years after the integration of major league baseball, the Georgia Senate unanimously approves a bill, which prohibits blacks from playing baseball with whites except at religious gatherings. Less than a decade later, the Braves will move its franchise from Milwaukee to Atlanta, the state's capital.
|The Orioles buy 32-year old veteran Whitey Lockman from the Giants. The 'Birds' will trade the first baseman to the Reds in June for Walt Dropo, who also plays first base.
|Kevin McClatchy and his group of investors purchase the Pirates from the Pittsburgh Associates. The deal includes the condition of having to build a baseball-only ballpark in Pittsburgh within five years.
|The Ford C. Frick Award, named in memory of the former baseball commissioner who was a broadcaster, will be given to Marlins' radio announcer Rafael Ramirez during Hall of Fame induction ceremonies this summer. 'Felo', who began his 56-year career broadcasting games in Cuba, has been in the Miami broadcast booth since the team's inaugural season in 1993.
|According to the Detroit Free Press major league baseball is informing umpires to remove pitchers from the game, without warning, who deliberately throw a beanball at a batter's head. The crackdown, according to officials, is a clarification and reinforcement of an existing rule.
|The Tigers sign Dmitri Young (.302, 21, 69) to a four-year contract with two team options. The Tigers traded outfielder Juan Encarnacion (.242, 12, 52) and minor league right hander Luis Pineda in December to acquire the first baseman/outfielder from the Reds.
|After much speculation, the Chunichi Dragons return Kevin Millar to the Marlins for an undisclosed amount of money for relinquishing its rights. After reconsidering an offer from the Red Sox, the outfielder had a change of heart and didn't want to play for the Japanese Central League team.
|The Twins sign Johan Santana (20-6, 2.61), who was eligible for arbitration, to a four-year deal. Last season, the 25-year-old southpaw became the first Venezuelan to win the Cy Young Award.
|For first time at Wrigley Field, the Cubs will allow ads on the green doors which are located in the ivy in the left- and right-field bleachers, according to Jay Blunk, director of marketing and sales. Although the team has been approached by other companies, Under Armour, whose company spokesman is newly acquired outfielder Alfonso Soriano, is the "right fit" for the 7-by-12 foot signage featuring the performance apparel�s signature logo.
|The Angels and Bobby Abreu (.296, 20, 100) agree to a $5 million, one-year deal. The 34-year-old free-agent outfielder, taking a significant pay cut after having a solid season with the Yankees last season, is expected to add some much-needed punch from the left side for the AL West champions.
|Avoiding arbitration, Carlos Marmol agrees to a three-year, $20 million deal with the Cubs. The 28-year-old closer saved 38 games in 43 opportunities last season along with compiling a 2-3 record and an ERA of 2.55.

Westside New
- f
- flowergirl Jul 27, 2009 07:09 PM
Looking for a good restaurant in Santa Monica, Brentwood or Venice area - preferably new. I like Riva, La Grande Orange and Anisette. Any ideas? Going to dinner with a few friends - nothing ethnic please
Amuse on Main street in Venice has had some favorable posts.
Gjelena on Abbot Kinney has been on their game for a little while now - very popular - so much so that they are now open for lunch.
Not in the parts of the Westside that you mention but Le Saint Amour in Downtown Culver City has gotten nothing but praise since they opened.
re: bulavinaka
I think you might mean Ado, which occupies the space formerly known as Amuse when Brooke Williamson ran it.
re: New Trial
You're right - I'm stuck in the 90s... :)
re: stevedi
There are previews tonight and tomorrow night for Stefan's at L.A. Farm. I'm going tomorrow & will keep you posted!
re: Bria Silbert
Think it's spelled Beechwood. Go for drinks on the patio, mixed reviews of the dining room.
Newest are:
Tavern in Brentwood
SugarFish in Brentwood
Ado in Venice
Cache in Santa Monica
Gjelina is semi-new
Westside Tavern in West LA
re: yogachik
I would also add:
Fig at the Fairmont
Hash at the recently renovated Hotel Erwin in Venice (anyone been?).
And I believe BP Oysterette on Ocean in Santa Monica is soon to open as well, if it hasn't already.
re: Juji
Also, let's not forget the latest incarnation of Cynthia's old place on 3rd Street - "Cynthia's on the Corner" on Montana Ave. near 15th Street in Santa Monica (which is up and running despite the somewhat misleading website which still says "Coming Soon" for some unexplainable reason).
Cynthia's On The Corner
1518 Montana Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90403
re: Servorg
We keep walking past Cynthia's every week and we have yet to try it. It is like the 3rd street location with the killer fried chicken and berry cobbler or is it a completely different menu?
re: catcaper
Similar. Skinless "fried" chicken yes. Cobbler yes. I have only had the one of the salads (Cynthia's chopped salad) that someone else here on the LA board recommended and that I thought was very good (and to which you can add the fried or grilled chicken too for an upcharge of $3).
Also, another newbie is La Grand Orange in Santa Monica. The second Southern California outpost of the Phoenix based restaurant.
Excellent (and drool worth photos) of the burger can be found here: http://aht.seriouseats.com/archives/2...
re: Servorg
She's already tried LGO, SO. Have you tried the burger? How d oes it compare to what's already out there? Looks good.
re: Phurstluv
It does looks great but I'm still trying to get there to find out first hand (mouth?).
re: Servorg
I hear ya! Do tell when you can!!
re: catcaper
Fried chicken is divine along with the mashed potatoes and gravy. Found the cobbler to be very disappointing. Chopped salad is excellent and for an extra $3.00 one can get some strips of the fried or grilled chicken. Word of warning: Service is agonizingly slow. They need more staff. It appears that there is just Cynthia, one cook and one server, who also spends some time in the kitchen. To be fair: the chicken is cooked to order. If lusting for Cynthia's fried chicken, I suggest calling about 45 minutes ahead and picking it up to go.
re: Servorg
Haven't eaten a full meal but stopped in for some pie and was seriously dissapointed. We had the peach raspberry - it was overly sweet and tasted like the peaches were straight out of a can - all you could taste was sugar, nothing peach about it. And that was the one the server recommened too, saying it was fresh. The atmosphere is cute, and the other diner's entrees looked good, so we might stop in again for a light dinner, but will definitely skip the dessert.
re: nataliya.v
Which place are you referring to??
re: Phurstluv
Phurstluv, if you click on the "re.Servorg" in the upper right hand corner of nataliya.v's post it will show (actually lead you to it) you that she was replying to my original post about Cynthia's on the Corner.
re: Servorg
Okay, thanks for the insight.
It's just that with so many responses, it's easy to get confused re: which place she was talking about, nice if she mentioned it, but no biggie either way! And it has nothing to do with the margaritas I had at lunch, either!!
re: Juji
Went to Hash at the Hotel Ervin this past Sunday morning and it was pretty good. We had the Corned Beef Hash and the Morning Glory Hash. We enjoyed the Corned Beef better than the Morning Glory.
Make sure you sit out on the front patio. Mainly tourists staying at the hotel with lots of different languages being used all around. Felt like I was in Europe for a moment. The service is still getting their rountine down but very friendly.

I love this bench! Was easy to assemble, looks great with my wood table!
These benches are extremely sturdy and well built. They are very easy to assemble. I assembled two in less than twenty minutes including clean up. These are a great buy!
Bench is okay. I like the look. It has tons of potential but its not built all that well especially for the price. The bench is heavy but not solid. The turnbuckle is the only part that is actually solid. The legs are iron with wood inside for support. I wish the seat was built the same way. The seat is sort of rickety. When you sit down it bumps and moves underneath your bum which is kind of annoying. I think if they have put wood under the iron seat like they did the legs it might not do this. I really like the look, just a little disappointed with the quality for the price. I am not sure if I would buy again. In my opinion the bench has a value of more like $*** rather than $*** plus.

Written by Christy Hinko and Matt Sagona Friday, 24 June 2011 00:00
Levittown native and retired pro wrestler Brimstone keeps very busy these days. Aside from the initial catapult from his sporting career, he is an actor, author, philanthropist, and the influence for a comic book character and series.
The Hound Comics CEO, William "Brimstone" Kucmierowski, is focused on pioneering unique ways of branding the Brimstone name through current projects including an upcoming autobiography titled, Brimstone: From the Barren Wastelands of My Mind, and a branded clothing line, "BrimWEAR."
His recent success with the release of Brimstone and the Borderhounds comic book series based on his character is having a domino effect in the right direction, boosting his business credibility.
Recently Brimstone and his eclectic crew of Borderhounds made their entrance into Wizard World's Miami Comic Con, revealing the highly anticipated Brimstone and the Borderhounds: The Animated Series. Hound Comics will join forces with Floating Pear Productions to produce the animated series of the comic book.
As if this was not enough exciting news already for fans of the comic book series, Peter Mayhew, better known for his role as the legendary Star Wars character, Chewbacca, has signed onto the animation's voice-over cast.
In a recent interview, Brimstone shared with the Anton Newspapers what inspired the development of his comic book series.
Brimstone said, "I always thought that the character of Brimstone would just make an awesome comic book character; I pitched the idea to several people who turned it down, then got in contact with Dark Horse comics and they loved the idea."
After exchanging some ideas with the publisher, Dark Horse Comics, about what the Brimstone character would look like, Brimstone contacted Martelllo Carnevali to begin developing the storyline. They met in a diner and developed most of the story for the first series within several hours.
"Well, I have always been a big fan of comic books; wrestling itself is sort of like a big comic book where larger than life heroes come to life in front of you," said Brimstone.
Brimstone debuted as a wrestler in 1996. He said the theatrics of wrestling is what most attracted him to the career.
"It's like a Broadway show; there are heroes and villains, tragedies, betrayals, and redemptions. The better you are at selling your character, the more positive the crowd response will be," said Brimstone. "There are not many feelings that compare to the rush you feel when you're generating a reaction from a crowd; it's incredible!"
Growing up, he most liked the Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, and the Ultimate Warrior, each for different reasons. "I liked the Undertaker's dark persona which appeals to my fondness for old school wrestling's unique, standout character gimmicks; Shawn Michaels because of his charisma; he seemed to know how to tell a story in the ring; and I loved the Ultimate Warrior because he was just a mad man; I loved the reaction he would get from the crowd."
Brimstone seems to find an outlet for every one of his talents. Whether it is his upcoming autobiography due out this summer, his comic book series, his animated television series, or Brimstone's upcoming clothing brand, he always seems optimistic about all his future endeavors.

Is it just me, or does anybody else think that this is the weirdest session ever? Think of all that has occurred already: Ted Nugent at the inauguration; huge fights over routine matters (the House rules, suspending the 4/5 rule); bad ideas (an unconstitutional death penalty for repeat sexual predators, an executive order for a mandatory vaccine program); voluntary stupidity (the governor and Phil King scoffing at global warming); more bad ideas (selling the lottery, building more prisons, billions for medical research but not a penny for stem cells), and, yesterday, a state of the state speech that sounded like it was written for the California Legislature. If you had been in the House chamber, you would have thought the Republicans were the opposition party. A number of them didn't even show up in what appeared to be an informal boycott over Perry's vaccination order. There was no applause for an embarrassingly long period at the beginning of the speech. When the applause did come, it was mostly Democrats who were doing the clapping. The speech was schizophrenic--spend, spend, spend, but give the governor line-item veto power and impose a lower spending cap and let's cut taxes too. When it was over, I thought of something Perry had said during an appearance before the election on the TV program, "Texas Monthly Talks." Editor Evan Smith had asked Perry about his relatively low standing in the polls, and Perry had responded with, Whatever my percentage is on election day, I'll be a 100 percent governor. Well, Perry's percentage was 39, and yesterday he seemed very much like a 39 percent governor.
I don't mean to suggest that the speech itself was poor. In fact, it was an uplifting speech (something Perry has not been known for in the past) that was delivered flawlessly (something Perry has not been known for in the past), and it laid out a comprehensive vision for the state. But it was a vision that, as was evident from the Republican reaction, lacks a constituency. This is what made it seem so weird. It was if he had brought the wrong speech with him. If it achieved anything, it was to reinforce the idea that Perry has national ambitions. The message was that you can have your conservative cake and share it with liberals. Perry even called for bipartisanship ("the high road of unity"), as if tort reform and congressional redistricting had never happened. Rs and Ds applauded that, thinking, perhaps, that he was speaking to the other party. National politics crept into the text with his request for $100 million for a more secure border, his opposition to a fence, and his opposition to amnesty. "Let us begin the airing of grievances with Washington," he said, singling out the feds' failure to ameliorate the cost of illegal immigration, their commandeering of CHIP funds, and the "environmental extremism" of preventing the state from building reservoirs by declaring sites to be wildlife sanctuaries. But his attempt to bypass a sitting Legislature with an executive order on an issue that riles conservatives--mandatory vaccinations--took all the air out of the room, and it may have the same effect on his presumed vice-presidential prospects.

Hotel Reviews
"Best stay in Siem Reap"
A great hotel we stayed there for 3 nights. Free WiFi worked well and was fast in the room. Room was neat and the a/c wasn't noisy. They give enough free water in the room. The staff were very friendly and helpful. However, the service in the hotels' own restaurants can be very slow. Fortunately the restaurants in town are in very close walking distance. In general, most of the hotel restaurant staff can't understand English very well.
"Wonderful hotel"
During my visit to Siem Reap I was impressed by the accommodations and service provided by the Sokha. I had a 6 night stay in a Club Suite which had a balcony overlooking the pool. The room was amazing and, as others have mentioned, the pool area is terrific and I would strongly recommend booking a room with a view.
The Sokha is nearby everything of interest. Tuk tuks are just outside the hotel to take you to the temples or to Pub Street. The staff is friendly and attentive. They also had a good breakfast buffet that catered to a wide variety of tastes and the café area just off the lobby was a good place to grab something good to eat and drink in between outings.
If I have an opportunity to
"OK hotel, could be better staffed"
Just spent 3 nights. Front desk staff is OK, breakfast is poor. They just want put out a basic meal. Hotel is decent, nothing grand. But then again you are in the middle of Cambodia so don't expect 5 stars. This is the beginning of high season, expect lots of people at the temples and the town.
Room Tip: Don't go with high exceptions, but you will have a fantastic trip to e temples and the city. Get...
"Recommended. Good hotel and good place."
Located in central Siem Reap, close to restaurants, shops and museum nacional.de Angkor. Receipt by size and decor is worthy of any 5 star hotel. The rooms are large, adequately equipped, although there are some signs of wear and tear on furniture. The staff very friendly and attentive. The hotel has a pool with a decor that evokes the nearby temples of Angkor. Spa also has a content price is one more reason to choose this hotel. Highly recommended, certainly would.
"A great hotel near a great location"
We stayed at the Sokha Angkor for 2 nights.The staff was very polite and helpful. The swimming pool is great. The air conditioning in the room worked very well. Everything in Siem Reap is within walking distance, or you can take a Tuktuk for $2. The hotel has a couple of restaurants but the service is a bit slow.
A great hotel to stay at and nothing to complain about.
