US 4582996 A Abstract Due to aging of the insulating materials arranged between the electrodes in ionization fire alarms or detectors the insulating efficiency of these thus formed so-called insulating paths or spans deteriorates in the course of time despite, or maybe even due to the cleaning operations performed upon such ionization fire alarms. To ensure that the insulating capacity does not fall below a critical value the insulating path or span is formed by at least two different insulating materials. The materials are arranged in such a manner that the creepage path between the electrodes extends across all the different insulating materials. This principle also may be applied to other measuring devices which require a high input resistance of an amplifier stage.
Claims(6) 1. An ionization fire alarm comprising:
an ionization chamber accessible for ambient atmosphere; two electrodes provided for said ionization chamber; an insulating member separating said two electrodes; said insulating member comprising at least two regions composed of different insulating materials; one insulating material of said different insulating materials being disposed intermediate a first one of said two electrodes and another insulating material of said different insulating materials; said one insulating material having first properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current; said another insulating material having second properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current which differ from said first properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current; and said at least two regions being arranged between said two electrodes such that a surface creepage path between said two electrodes extends across all said regions. 2. The ionization fire alarm as defined in claim 1, wherein:
said insulating member comprises three regions composed of different insulating materials. 3. The ionization fire alarm as defined in claim 2, wherein:
a first one of said three regions is composed of a polycarbonate, a second one of said three regions is composed of an epoxide resin and a third one of said three regions is composed of a polyester. 4. The ionization fire alarm as defined in claim 1, wherein:
said first one of said two electrodes forms a central electrode; a second one of said two electrodes forms a hood provided with apertures for the entry of the ambient atmosphere; said hood delimiting said ionization chamber relative to the ambient atmosphere; and said regions of said different insulating materials of said insulating member are arranged around said central electrode. 5. The ionization fire alarm as defined in claim 4, wherein:
said regions of said different insulating materials are arranged substantially concentrically around said central electrode. 6. An insulating member for the electrodes of an ionization chamber of a fire detector, comprising:
a first region surrounding a first one of the electrodes; at least one further region surrounding said first region; said first region and said at least one further region being disposed intermediate said first one of the electrodes and at least one further one of the electrodes; said first region comprising an insulating material having properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current; and said at least one further region comprising a different insulating material having properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current which are different from said properties of electrical resistance to surface creepage current of said insulating material of said first region. Description The present invention relates to a new and improved construction of an ionization fire alarm or detector. In its more specific aspects the invention relates to a new and improved ionization fire alarm or detector which is of the type which contains a radioactive substance located in an ionization chamber accessible to the ambient atmosphere and two electrodes separated by an insulating member. An electric circuit serves for signalling and triggering an alarm. In ionization fire alarms or detectors as known, for example, from German Pat. No. 2,130,889 the air present in the ionization chamber which is accessible for the ambient or external atmosphere becomes ionized due to the radioactive substance or specimen located therein. Due to the d.c.-voltage applied to the two electrodes of the ionization chamber an ionic current flows between the electrodes. In the event that smoke, aerosols formed during a fire or other particles enter the ionization chamber through apertures or openings of the chamber then the electric current will change. The electric circuit evaluates the current change such that at a certain reduction in conductivity in the ionization chamber an alarm signal is transmitted to a central signal station via electric lines. In known circuits of such kind the ionization chamber is connected in series with a resistor element which, for example, constitutes a reference ionization chamber which is either very nearly hermetically sealed or insensitive to aerosols formed during a combustion process. The potential difference between the two chambers is determined using a high-ohm or high-impedance amplifier like, for example, a field-effect transistor. Another possibility resides in periodically scanning the charge on the electrodes in the ionization chamber. Since the ionization chambers generally used have a resistance greater than 1010 Ω, and thus, the electric circuit must have an input resistance which is substantially higher, the ionization fire alarms or detectors are highly sensitive to any contamination which reduces the electrical resistance i.e., of the insulating member or of the insulating path between the electrodes of the ionization chamber. In the same fashion as aerosols generated by a fire or combustion process other particles emanating from the environment of the detector like, for example, dust are transported into the ionization chamber and will be deposited therein, whereby the electrical resistance of the insulating path will decrease. Consequently, frequent maintenance of fire alarm systems and cleaning of the ionization fire alarms or detectors is required. According to the aforementioned German Pat. No. 2,130,889 the problem of maintaining the electrical resistance is solved by covering the insulating path or span in the interior of the hood, which serves as the outer or external electrode and contains apertures for the entry of environmental air, by a labyrinth formed by the same highly insulating synthetic material. Thus, the creepage path between the central-electrode and the counterelectrode is protected from contamination, and the creepage path exposed to contamination is enlarged by more than a factor of 4 due to the annular or ring-shaped webs of the labyrinth. It has thus become possible to considerably prolong the period of time until the fire alarm or detector becomes ineffective, i.e. the service or maintenance intervals can be increased. However, synthetic materials, i.e. plastics, are subject to natural aging which may become accelerated due to the action of oxygen in the air or, partially also due to ozone, or due to the action of aggressive ingredients or constituents contained in the environmental air or in the cleaning agents used for servicing the ionization fire alarm or detector. While such corrosive substances are present in standard environmental air only in extremely low concentrations, nonetheless the concentrations thereof may assume considerable values in specific environments. Finally, the duration of the action of the different substances cannot be neglected as well as the fact that the air is ionized by the radioactive source present in the ionization fire alarm, whereby ozone and other compounds or substances capable of attacking the materials of which the ionization fire alarm is composed are formed in the very interior thereof. Since the atmosphere may penetrate between the labyrinth and the insulating path the problem of aging of the insulating path persists. Cleaning of the ionization fire alarms or detectors during servicing the same did not heretofore present a problem, however, repeated cleanings have always been problematic with respect to maintaining the high surface insulating values of about 1010 Ω over longer time spans. The search for materials having sufficiently high resistance towards environmental effects caused by, for example, solvent vapors, insecticides and so forth, did not render a satisfactory result, since it was impossible to find a plastic or synthetic material having optimum properties in respect of all environmental effects. Therefore, with the foregoing in mind it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a new and improved ionization fire alarm or detector of the initially mentioned type in which the insulating capacity of the insulating member between the electrodes is maintained for a longer period of time. Another important object of the present invention is directed to the provision of a new and improved ionization fire alarm which is not associated with the aforementioned limitations and drawbacks of the prior art constructions. Now in order to implement these and still further objects of the invention, which will become more readily apparent as the description proceeds, the ionization fire alarm of the present development is manifested by the features that, the insulating member or part comprises at least two regions composed of different insulating materials, and these at least two regions are arranged between the two electrodes such that a creepage path extending between the two electrodes extends across all the regions. According to a preferred embodiment of the ionization fire alarm according to the invention the insulating member comprises three regions composed of different insulating materials. It is particularly preferred that a first one of the three regions is composed of, for example, a polycarbonate, a second of the three regions is composed of, for example, an epoxide resin, and a third one of the three regions is composed of, for example, a polyester. In a preferred design of the ionization fire alarm according to the invention the one electrode forms a central electrode and the other electrode comprises a hood or cap containing openings or apertures for the entry of environmental or ambient air, the hood defining or delimiting the ionization chamber with respect to the ambient atmosphere for which the same is accessible. The regions composed of different materials are arranged around the central electrode, preferably substantially concentrically. The invention will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above, will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein: FIG. 1 shows a section through a prior art construction of ionization fire alarm; and FIG. 2 shows a section through an ionization fire alarm constructed according to the present invention. Describing now the drawings, it is to be understood that only enough of the construction of the ionization fire detector has been shown as needed for those skilled in the art to readily understand the underlying principles and concepts of the present development, while simplifying the showing of the drawings. Turning attention now specifically to FIG. 1, there has been schematically illustrated in sectional view a prior art ionization fire alarm which comprises a metallic hood or cap 1 containing apertures or openings 2 and 3 for the entry of environmental air. In the interior of the hood 1 there is disposed a labyrinth or labyrinth arrangement 4 made of highly insulating synthetic material, i.e. plastic, which internally contains a number of webs 5 arranged in the form of circular rings for prolonging the creepage path. A substantially slunger or punch-shaped central electrode 6 is located at the center of the labyrinth 4. The outer electrode is formed by the metallic hood 1. The two electrodes 1 and 6 are partially releasably connected to an insulating member 7 by connecting means (not shown). The insulating member 7 and the labyrinth or labyrinth arrangement 4 are made of the same synthetic material, preferably a commercially available polycarbonate, e.g. "Makrolon", available from the well-known German firm Bayer-Leverkusen. In FIG. 2 there is depicted a section through an exemplary embodiment of the ionization fire alarm according to the invention. The ionization fire alarm here also comprises a metallic hood 1 provided with apertures or openings 3 for the entry of environmental or ambient air. The inner counter-electrode 6 which is disposed at the center of the ionization chamber 11, to which the external or ambient atmosphere has access, is located on a central protuberance or elevation formed at the insulating member 7. The insulating member 7 is disposed between the central electrode 6 and the metallic hood 1 forming the other outer electrode and is subdivided to form a first region 8 composed of a polycarbonate, a second region 9 composed of an epoxide resin, and a third region 10 composed of a polyester. With such arrangement there is achieved the beneficial result that a creepage current forming between the central electrode 6 and the metallic hood 1 forming the outer or external electrode is conducted across three insulating paths or spans formed by different synthetic materials. The material from which the first region 8 is composed may be thermoplastic polyesters, i.e. polycondensates derived from carbonic acid and diols. Such polycarbonates are resistant to water, neutral salt solutions, mineral acids including, for example hydrofluoric acid, aqueous solutions of oxidants, hydrocarbons, oils, lipids and others. Specifically, this region of the insulating path is produced from a commercially available polycarbonate, available under the trademark "Makrolon", from the well-known German firm, Bayer-Leverkusen. The second region 9 is preferably made of a thermosetting plastic material derived from epoxides and polyols. The electronic components of the ionization fire alarm may be embedded into the casting mass formed by the epoxide resin. The epoxide resins are resistant to atmospheric effects or agents, water, acids, bases, oil, gas, benzene, benzol and others. The third region 10 is preferably produced from a polycondensate formed by multivalent alcohols (diols, polyols) and multibasic carboxylic acids. Such polyesters are resistant towards all organic solvents. They are however, less resistant to water and alkali as well as to acids above 70� C. To improve the insulating capacity of the insulating member 7 one or more of the different regions 8, 9, 10 may be provided with annular protuberances or elevations to prolong the creepage path, without the process of manufacturing the insulating member 7 becoming appreciably more complicated. An essential advantage of the ionization fire alarm according to the invention is that the insulating capacity of the insulating member 7 is retained over substantially longer periods of time as compared to known ionization fire alarms or detectors. If the surface resistance of one of the synthetic materials forming the insulating member 7 is reduced by the action of aggressive ingredients or substances from the atmosphere or by even the least damage due to the action of cleaning or drying agents, the insulating capacity of at least one of the other regions is still preserved due to the different chemical compositions of the individual regions. When preparing instructions for the technological procedure for cleaning the plastic parts, the chemical nature thereof is extensively taken into consideration. However, the composition of the dust deposited upon the insulating path is not known, so that frequently reactive cleaning agents like, for example, a surfactant-containing laboratory cleaning solution such as RBS (available from Carl Roth, GmbH & Co., KG, 75 Karlsruhe 21, The Federal Republic of Germany) must be used. To enable rational servicing of ionization fire alarms the members thereof have to be dried after cleaning by using water-displacing agents like isopropanol or freon. Preservation of the surface properties or nature of the plastics members, therefore, can not be ensured in the long run. When, however, the individual regions in the insulating member 7 are made of plastics having different chemical resistivity, then the danger of the insulating capacity of the entire insulating member 7 decreasing below an acceptable limit or threshold is considerably reduced in comparison to the known ionization fire alarms or detectors. It will be self-evident that other plastics materials can be used in place of the employed synthetic materials mentioned hereinbefore provided that it is noted that the resistance of the synthetic materials against external effects is as different as possible. One of the important inventive concepts, namely, increasing the resistivity or resistance of the insulating paths by subdividing the same into regions of different chemical compositions has been described hereinbefore with reference to an ionization fire alarm. Still, the insulating paths of other fire alarms or detectors requiring a high input resistance of an amplifier stage can be significantly improved by series arranging regions made of different plastics materials while the insulating paths are manufactured. While there are shown and described present preferred embodiments of the invention, it is to be distinctly understood that the invention is not limited thereto, but may be otherwise variously embodied and practiced within the scope of the following claims.

Across the river a good woman cried
All because a foolish man had lied
She gave up all she had to show how much she cared
But the man told so many lies, now another man is over there
That woman across the river
Sweet woman across the river, she was mine
Word got around that he had jilted her
And men came running came running from near and far
That the man, he's got to know, he's a lucky so and so
That woman across the river
I met her one day, about a week ago
She said, "I don't even want to talk to you
'Cause I don't love you any more"
That woman across the river

When you lie down in your bed, recite ayat al-Kursi, Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none
has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and
protects all that exists... [al-Baraqah 2:255] until the end of the ayah, then you will have
a protector from Allah and no shaytan (devil) will come near you until morning comes.
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
Allah! There is no god but He - the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal.
No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep.
His are all things In the heavens and on earth.
Who is there can intercede In His presence except As he permitteth?
He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind them.
Nor shall they compass Aught of his knowledge Except as He willeth.
His throne doth extend Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in
guarding And preserving them, For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory).
Al-Baqarah 2: 255

Animal hoarders pose unique problem to LEOs
By Wendy E. Normandy
Chicago Tribune
OAK LAWN, Ill. — Oak Lawn police responding to an odor complaint were not prepared for what they found in a 68-year-old man's apartment earlier this year.
Ninety-five turtles and tortoises of various sizes were crowded into a dozen or so plastic storage tubs half-filled with dirty water. There also were 20 newts, 12 salamanders and numerous other reptiles, plus as many as 100 dead turtles and the remains of an 18-inch-long alligator, police said.

Should You Own Property to Be Able to Vote? Even Thomas Jefferson Couldn't Make Up His Mind
Matthew E. Crow is a doctoral candidate in history at UCLA.
In recent years, we have seen conservative and populist originalism reasserted with great political effect. Tea Party thinkers like Judson Phillips and Elizabeth Price Foley have given historical, constitutional grounding and political direction to that reassertion, bemoaning the right of every citizen to vote regardless of property ownership, and writing democracy itself out of the collection of legitimate conceptual tools at the disposal of the citizenry. The most recent efforts to rewrite voter registration laws in multiple states draw on a naked quest for political advantage, it is true, but at least as important here is the no doubt deeply held belief that the people turned away from the polls as a result of such laws lack the independence and propriety to be voting in the first place. On his appearance before the NAACP, Mitt Romney summed up his message: no more "free stuff," and we can assume that he meant things like education, access to health care, and perhaps more.
These events share a common theme of trying to define what kinds of people are worth recognizing as citizens. They prompt us to recall a history of using all sorts of criteria (wealth, race, gender, sexual identity, disability), to make the definition and the group allowed to actually do the defining as restrictive as possible. Restoring the virtuous republic, so the argument goes, demands abandoning any pretense to a democratic and egalitarian polity. We have in our history good reasons to doubt and resist that argument.
Thomas Jefferson thought long and hard about what it took to be a citizen, the relationship between the capacity for active citizenship and the holding of property, and what to do about economic inequality in a republic. In his correspondence with James Madison, he argued that "legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property," and so "whenever there are in any country uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right. The earth," Jefferson summarized, "is given as a common stock for man to labor and live in." He also suggested a progressive tax scheme: "another means of silently reducing the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher proportions of property in geometrical progression as they rise." Property holdings, like constitutions, were subject to reconsideration and yes, redistribution.
But property as the gateway to civic capacity was and remains problematic. Jefferson could easily favor securing the right of women to own property, for example, but extending voting rights and eligibility for political office to women was out of the question entirely. Enslaved African Americans, of course, were property, property which guaranteed Jefferson's own abilities to participate in political life. On the issue of slavery, Jefferson ended up thinking that even if slavery came to an end in the U.S., the formerly enslaved population would have to be sent elsewhere. Precisely because they had labored in intellectual and physical dependence on others, Jefferson supposed African Americans to lack the capacity for property, and therefore the propriety to be fellow citizens. By this logic, even if every African American male head of household got forty acres and a mule, the memory of slavery would poison the well of social bonds -- who could predict where the demands for justice would lead? Better to control access to the right of making such demands at the source.
Another illustration of the unresolved tension at the heart of the connection between citizenship and property is the fate of the Cherokee Indians. The inevitable amalgamation of Native Americans into the U.S. polity, for Jefferson, depended on their adoption of patriarchy and individual, agrarian property holding. The Cherokee did this, but it did little to protect themselves and others from settler lust for western land. They were not the first, nor were they the last, to find out that liberal values like the sanctity of contract and the rights of property can be relative.
When it came to the expansionist republic of property holders, including property in laboring human beings, Jefferson abandoned his argument about the common stock of the earth. "To take from one, because it is thought that his own industry and that of his fathers had acquired too much, in order to spare to others" who had not, in theory, been as industrious, Jefferson wrote, "is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone of a free exercise of his industry, and the fruits acquired by it." The purposeful forgetting of collective rights to ensure an equitable distribution of property went hand-in-hand with the project of denying claims to citizenship and other legal rights and protections, even those predicated on the holding of property.
That we have arrived at a point in our history when the unemployed, the working poor, and large sectors of the middle class can be discussed in public as "freeloaders" demonstrates that the idea of the citizen as freeholder is inadequate to the point of being nonsensical. It clouds our judgment. Jefferson's arrival at an uncontestable bond between property ownership and the capacity for civic life does not bear the brunt of his own commonwealth critique. To be perfectly old-fashioned, the lesson of history here is that without the maintenance of common stock in wealth and political power, the Jeffersonian prospect of democratic freedom falls flat on its face.

TravelPod Member ReviewsMotel 6 Kingman West
It is fine for the money & Calico Restaurant next door makes it even better. There is also the Mojave Museum of History & Art if you walk a bit further up the street that might be fun to visit.
The pool is secure & clean. The room is a good size but I had to take one on the 2nd floor, annoying when I have gear from my motorcycle to haul around, but not as devastating for me as another guest who had 2 handicapped relatives to take up/down the stairs!
I have to say that the extra charge for internet service was NOT welcome. Sure it was small ($3.25) but honestly, I hate nickel & dime charges. So, go over to Calico's & order some food & enjoy their FREE wifi.

Location and everything was awesome for the price. The restaurant with good food on site is a real bonus!

Grand Canyon to Kingman
... of desert on top. There was an old circular watchtower to go up and get an even higher view of the surrounds. It had ancient Indian paintings up the walls inside of the tower. With the first floor taking you to an outside platform, but there were a further 3 floors up within the tower. We went to the very top of the tower to fully appreciate the 360* surround sound view. Ear popping and taking in the sights from the telescopes. Could get a much better look ...

I just got back from seeing this at the Irish Film Institute. I chose that screening over any of the larger venues because it was showing the movie subtitled instead of dubbed, but unfortunately there was some kind of weird error halfway through and they had to switch to a dubbed version.
And the dub was god-awful*. Most of the performances were on par with what you'd see in a Professor Layton game. Not that Layton games have horrible voice acting, but they're not exactly known for their subtlety or nuanced emotion. It completely killed the rest of the movie. *(Keep in mind I'm talking about the UK/Ireland dub, which has different actors than the American one). |

Having had to misfortune to hear a minute of the dub Optimum Releasing-soon-to-be StudioCanal UK had recorded for Sammy's Adventure I'm far from surprised by that.
But on the positive side, if you can't see any subbed screenings within reach here I can assure you that this list is far from complete: in Leeds alone for example there are another two showing it, one of them showing it mostly subbed. I'd recommend using FindAnyFilm or just a Google search for cinemas for something more reliable. |

They're only showing the dub here and I had no problems with it, other than Pod's voice not quite seeming to suit him. | |||

Involuntary werewolves, on the other hand, are werewolves by an accident of birth or health. I wish it for every one I ever meet.

The solstices mark the two dates during the year on which the Earth`s position in its orbit is not such that its axis is not most directly tilted either toward or away from the Sun.
This is however argued against by Woodward, who points out how mythological werewolves were almost invariably portrayed as resembling true wolves, and that their human forms were rarely physically conspicuous as porphyria victims.

Whenever I'm making a public appearance-- be it a guest lecture at an Ivy League institution, a poetry slam in the East Village, or a Costco outlet opening in Yuma, Arizona-- I'm often asked the same question by some concerned audience member. "Rob," they ask, "as a world-renowned Internet music critic, can you please explain to me what 'IDM' is?" Chuckling to myself and stroking my salt-and-pepper beard, I reply, "First of all, as a little joke, I like to say that the 'I' in 'IDM' stands for unlistenable. Ahahahaha. Ha." The laughter and applause is usually deafening, save the few pale kids in the back wearing Geogaddi shirts who choose to scoff and shoot dirty glances rather than salute my delightful witticism.
Ahh, but I kid, Grooves subscribers; I kid because I love. It's just hard not to mock a genre whose very name reminds people that the music within is 'intelligent,' lest any of us confuse it with the low-brow disrobing anthems of Nelly and Tweet. Also amusing is the D-for-Dance part, since a lot of the music in this pigeonhole seems to require a minimum of six legs and a mild case of epilepsy to actually dance along. Yeah, so IDM is a label dreamt up by critics stretching for words to describe bleeps and bloops, though the Very Serious attitude of a lot of artists in the IDM neighborhood does little to wash away the stink of elitism.
Of course, even I recognize that there are exceptions to this snooty caricature, and it's these exceptions that usually pace the field in terms of exposure and influence. The 'It' Boy of the IDM beauty pageant at this very second is Mr. Scott Herren of Atlanta, Georgia, for whom Prefuse 73 is the best known of a Stephen Merritt-like stable of aliases. Herren's turned a number of ears lately by setting up camp at the crossroads of the two most fertile sounds going right now-- your hip-hop and your electronic-- and catering to the forward-thinkers of both crowds. Herren even threw out a little bait named Sam Prekop on his last LP to get the indie rockers' attention, proving that the underground also knows how to sell a few more records with the "Ft." credit.
But being king of the hill in either electronic or hip-hop is generally a short-lived affair, and flirting with both scenes simultaneously makes Prefuse 73 an extra-juicy target for a coup d'etat. Hence his new EP, The '92 vs. '02 Collection, is receiving more scrutiny than an Arab-American at an airport security checkpoint, the rabble itching to throw Herren on the washed-up pile with Richard D. James and Dan Nakamura. Thing is, Herren's not going down easy. This EP's neither a retread of Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives' inventions, nor a needlessly abrupt U-turn away from that album.
Though they're subtle, there are definite changes afoot. Most noticeably, someone seems to have scared the hiccups out of Herren's music; after Vocal Studies moved the word 'glitch' from troubleshooting manuals to hipster dictionaries, he seems to be letting the style go its own way. And save a short chest-beating sample in the prologue to "When Irony Wears Thin" ("you want my style so much") and a diva given the blender treatment on "Love You Bring," Herren leaves behind the nothing-but-vowels linguistic deconstruction of his previous outing. Filling in the empty spaces instead is a busier, more jittery undercurrent, full of taps, snaps, and claps, clicks, flicks, and thwicks.
What's thankfully left intact is Herren's ability to present his art in digestible three-to-five-minute portions, or 'songs,' if you will. As with the similarly deified DJ Shadow, writers confronted with Prefuse 73 music tend to get so tied up with describing the artist's technical accomplishments and cultural relevancy that they forget that both men possess the remarkable ability to make innovation fun. There's a reason Vocal Studies turns up in more CD towers than Autechre; like a novel or a movie with both literal and allegorical meanings, Prefuse can be enjoyed on either a visceral or intellectual level.
And if you haven't already figured it out, I'd rather listen to The '92 vs. '02 Collection as a record than as a thesis. Forget musical evolution, I like "Desks, Pencils, Bottles" because the central sample of clanking glass bottles sounds really fucking neat alongside the window-rattling bass and astral synthesizers. "When Irony Wears Thin" is good, too; with brassy orchestration like a cop-show theme song coasting over a skyline of beeps and tests of the emergency broadcast system. "It Never Entered" and "Love you Bring" are slightly less ear-catching; the first concentrates on the same synthesizers (the '02, I assume) against handclaps (the '92?) battle as the rest of the EP, and the second comes closest to a Vocal Studies leftover with its R&B; vocals and looped acoustic guitar snippet.
That's an EP for you, though-- a low-profile snack between meals to tweak one's sound and hint at future directions. As a strategic move, releasing The '92 vs. '02 Collection is probably good policy, as it'll hopefully deflect some of the required backlash when the true follow-up to Vocal Studies is released (something, ahem, the Shadow knows about). For the rest of us, '92 vs. '02 is an entertaining fifteen minutes, thanks to Herren balancing out the I with enough D, and making pretty darn good M.

Meanwhile, Back At The Newly Redesigned Oval Office, President Obama Acts Churlish
Bleh. Andrew Malcolm has the text of the speech along with some interestingly placed photos–I do believe he's learned picture placement art from Drudge.
My thoughts on the speech? Petty, small, graceless, and ultimately irrelevant. The American people know what's up in Iraq. This speech wasn't for them. It was for the Democrat base that needed to hear the words "a promise kept". The speech was a bone to the lapdogs.
The American people also know that troops will never leave Iraq–just as they're still in Korea, Japan, Germany and elsewhere. American troops will stay there to protect the fragile country and to serve as a bulwark against Iran. It is also a nice, centrally located base.
So, the speech was one of those things politicians do. And it wasn't even a good bit of politicking at that.
Now, on to more important things like the brown, 80s era couches in the Oval Office. Is there a method to this hideous madness? Was this a willful exercise to bring down the majesty and intimidation of the room? Is this a way to make America look more base and of the common man? Did President Obama want to make sure the SEIU thugs who hang there felt comfortable? I'm wondering if they're actually recliners with flip-out arm rests that have hidden drink holders.
Or, does President Obama truly have vile taste? I mean, Michelle has access to the most prominent and successful fashion designers and either doesn't have a stylist help her or else, has sycophants telling her that she looks good no matter. Perhaps it's the same with the office design.
Either way, even NPR is noting the ugliness. Don't offend the Left's aesthetics. That's the last straw.

DEFINITION of 'New York Dollar'
The buying power of a U.S. dollar in the city of New York. The New York dollar is calculated by subtracting the additional cost of living in New York, and then adding back the additional income residents tend to command as a result. Once calculated, the remaining amount is a rough estimate of what your dollar is worth in this very expensive city.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'New York Dollar'
Living in New York is much more expensive than most other places in America. A dollar earned and spent in this city does not go as far, and once this is taken into account, you are left with the New York dollar. For example if you take $1 and subtract the additional cost of housing (15 cents), taxes (5.2 cents), basic costs (4.1 cents) and lifestyle (13.3 cents), and then add additional wages paid (16 cents), you are left with the buying power of a dollar in New York: 100 - 15 - 5.2 - 4.1 - 13.3 + 16 = 78.4 cents.

Thanksgiving will be at my house this year. Which means I will spend this weekend searching for family recipes, new recipes and coming up with just the right Thanksgiving table decor. My mind is already beginning to wander.  If your searching for ideas or just want to get in the holiday mood you need to tune in to WOSU TV at 3:00pm Sunday for an afternoon full of Thanksgiving specials.

I hope you'll take some time this Sunday to get in the holiday mood. If you're busy shopping set your DVR to watch later for some last minute ideas.
