Write a review for the Best Value 735 Case with HD Audio & Stealthed DVD Cover Black here!
Really nice case
Reviewed by martxw. Review Posted 15/09/2013
It's a nice case with neat plastic front, and big easy to use power and reset buttons.
The only niggle is that the DVD cover opens to mostly cover its own press button, so it's fiddly to press, or you need to push the tray back in to close it.
- Overall
- Ease of use
- Value for money

My daughter started quilting before I did. She has a 14-ft Gammill and a good following. She is a free-motion quilter. I started her sewing rather young and she just "fell into" quilting, dragging me along. Now she does all my quilting, although I am wintering with my children this year and hope to gain some insight in free-motion on my Designer 1.

I'm so excited... I haven't paid attention to hockey in 2 years... I'll be getting a few beers and watch the Leafs play tonight, for now i'll be playing nhl 12 lol btw it sucks that the ticket prices are so high... the cheapest is 48 which is not bad but it's all the way back of the ACC.
You know I tried really hard being classy about the Kings beating my team last year but I can't do it. Fuck you Kings, you're now among my least favorite franchises in sports history.
Those feels I had during that video of the Kings holding the Cup. Won't be the last time a Sutter fucks over the Devils, either.
Kings won't make it past the first round of the playoffs. Feel free to quote me win this happens. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST They will also lose this game.
Do we really need to hoist the cup again...I mean understand the Kings will never be seeing it again but c'mon
Are there any new Kings players on the ice right now? Or is it only the Cup winning team? What about the guys that aren't with the team anymore?
I want to watch ALL of these games at the SAME time. NHL Gamescenter isn't having a free preview right now, are they?
Fuck the Lakers too. Thank god this frontrunner bandwagoning LA jizzfest is done with. Pens/Flyers nao

So, if you know us at all, you know we are on a plane pretty much ALL the time. Tour life. You learn how to travel like a champ. You learn the tricks…what works, what doesn't.
Two things that are very important to have on a plane ride…especially a loooong one…are:
1) A Neck Pillow (for general head/neck comfort){preferably one that snaps onto your purse or backpack}
2) A hoodie. (So you can strategically pull the hood over your eyes like so:)
Like I said, we're kind of frequent travelers…so this technique is KEY. I even had the double hoodie on in the above picture. #Professional
So, some GENIUS invented this incredible 'HoodiePillow" which is pretty much like inventing peanut butter and jelly. We are so jealous of whoever invented this before WE did…and also…we NEED these. I mean, COME ON!! It's brilliant.
How comfy does she look?
Happy traveling! (And you know what to get us for Christmas!)

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This design is so beautiful in person and online. I am very pleased with the final result. The Wedding Paper Divas team made sure all of the details were correct and the image and design looked great. So happy with the speed of delivery. I would order from this company again."
"I love the simplicity of these invitations, and the foil stamping really makes them feel "expensive." Our customer service agent was great to work with; she helped me customize the text and even offered suggestions on different ways to word my invitation and RSVP cards. I would highly recommend Wedding Paper Divas to everybody."
"Easy to personalize and add too if needed. Slightly pricey but worth it to know that it's going to be done right. Customer service is also very helpful if you need help or need to order extra :)"
"We did not want the cursive writing (mainly my fiance did not want..) but we still wanted somple elegant. This was the perfect combination. The team here was also very helpful in changing the colors to match our wedding."
"Beautiful design, front and back. Elegant. We upgraded to pearly finish and like it very much. My fiancé liked them because they were not too feminine. Delivered very quickly. Very pleased overall."

Distribution taking place now across south Louisiana, and even other states
LAFAYETTE, LA (KADN) — Second Harvest Food Bank received it's largest donation of produce from the Produce Marketing Association. Beginning this morning, Second Harvest Food Bank started distributing the produce to over one-hundred partner agencies across south Louisiana who will in turn distribute the reclaimed produce directly to clients in teh communities they serve.
"Across Louisiana one of six Louisianians are hungry, chronically hungry. This means that someone you know more than likely even though you aren't aware of who it is has an issue with hunger. We're trying to reach out to all those families and give them some healthy alternatives," says Paige Vance, community outreach manager of Second Harvest Food Bank.
Because of the historic amount of produce donated, Second Harvest will help distribute this fresh healthy product to neighboring Feeding America Network food banks in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Florida.

richard January 05, 2013 9:02 PM well, seeing that i am hopeless with electronics, and hate turbos, i reckon that the 60s or even 50s would have suited me. my own competition participation was at end of 60s and early 70s so felt that i was at my peak then.did test a f5000 but was not keen on it as i preferred saloons Reply Report abuse 1 agree 5 disagree

Michael Fornarina - Unregistered January 05, 2013 10:08 PM @Richard.. you asked the question of whether Hamilton will even be considered a top driver after 2 years at Merc and perhaps this is a good time to bring up Alonso leaving Mclaren for an uncompetitive Renault two wins later in a dog car.. (1 legit -1 controversial) and Fernando Alonso is still considered a top driver in fact 2nd in the wdc 2012 -- If Lewis can win or place high in the Mercedes and outperform Nico..

Taipan January 05, 2013 10:13 PM Ghog, Richard, I'd say the 60's as well, even though I wasn't born 'till 71!I think it's because I can look at those cars and understand them as cars and wouldn't need 3 years training just to drive one. They were also beautiful without wings and such, I've always prefered mechanics over aerodynamics.

Michael Fornarina - Unregistered January 05, 2013 10:17 PM This is pretty much Ron Dennis doing image-damage control., Hamilton might have also jumped ship because The Mclaren-Ship is beginning to take on water -- 2013 Woking have to pay customer prices for their Merc engines as the Mercedes 'works' partnership ends-- and end of the 2013 season also sees the end of the Vodafone title sponsorship.. (will Vodafone renew?)Mercedes could be well placed for the new Turbo Era being a team with an internally designed works engine. (and not a detuned customer lump). 4 agree 3 disagree

107SS2009 January 05, 2013 11:14 PM Pole, as usual 5/6 hours late but here we go, not in chronological order but hoping of having covered all your points. I never said that Lulu is not a top diver in fact I might as well be one of the first on here to have believed so, but I still stand with all I said. Fully agree with your list of "top four drivers on the grid today" and also agree with the order as listed. I don't agree with "u can't have two top drivers at one team" as it's a matter of a team's policy. Also agree there was no room for Lulu at both FERRARI and RBR, which means there was no preference for him over Alonso or Vettel, if he was a preferred driver at least for FERRARI over Alonso, FERRARI had proofed that they have done it before, Kimi/Alonso.

Safe Driving Plus is an interactive risk reduction system for fleets, designed to change behaviour and reduce accidents and injuries. Safe Driving Plus provides each individual driver with the information they need to stay safe and a personal action plan to reduce their risks.
Our assessments will allow you to take a pro-active stance in addressing the needs of all your drivers, instead of reacting to incidents when it is too late.
15 minutes
For those without internet access, RAC Fleet Risk Management provides a hard copy format, to be transferred onto the online system in order to gain the full benefit of our training and assessment management system.
Online hard copy risk assessment based on:
The subsequent User Action Report will identify a driver's weaker areas and will ask them to commit to improve such areas in the future. For example, a driver answers that they rarely or never check their tyre pressure. Within the User Action Report they will be given 'Best Practice Feedback' on how often tyre pressure ought to be checked and will have the opportunity to commit to take on board and implement this advice.
Having completed the risk assessment, depending on risk, drivers can then continue to the e-learning module or be put forward for practical on-road training.

Toyota Avalon Electrical Problems
Our 97 Avalon XL rear window defrost is not working. I checked fuse is fine and every time I pushed the defrost button on the center console defrost light will lit up and I can hear a relay on the driver side clicking. Does anyone have any idea what went wrong?
fin atlantaPosts: 589Based on postings from another Avalon topic, ALL Avalon owners should check the battery terminal posts for corrosion. Seems the cable ends may be inferior in design or material and allow premature corrosion at the post. My '99 had a little more than expected after 4 years. If you find a problem, fix it before the cable fails. Or have the dealer fix it if still under warranty. Most Avalons do not seem to have this problem but look to be sure. A minor event in an otherwise wonderful product.
tiredmom2 Posts: 3Is anyone else having these problems or did I just get a lemon?
-My 1997 Avalon with 56k miles is on its 4th battery. One time, we were driving down the road when all power went out. One mechanic told me he thinks the alternator is over charging them.
-There is now a loud moaning noise when I turn the steering wheel. Dealer tells me I have a leak in the rack and pinion and need it replaced for $1200.
-The left rear door's window quit working a few months after the warranty expired. Dealer says motor has a short in it. Will be $408 to replace.
-The speaker in the left rear door has static if it works at all. Dealer says bad speaker that needs replacing.
-The left brake light is out. I tried a new bulb, doesn't help. Interior indicator light stays on saying that light is out. I told dealer all of this. Dealer kept car all day to check and came out and told me that "just needed new bulb". I then walked the rep around the car and showed him myself that the light was still not working and that the indicator light was still on! Dealer couldn't tell me what was wrong with this. Said there must be a short somewhere.
I asked the rep at the dealer repair shop if he didn't think it odd that so many things could have "shorts" in them in the left rear side of the car. Seems beyond coincidence to me. He thought it was all perfectly normal and I should willing hand over large sums of money to fix it. Needless to say I walked out.
I have already had the struts replaced (under warranty thank goodness). The car has always had a lot of road noise too. Very annoying on long trips. I think I am going to find some local mechanic to fix cheaper and sell ASAP. I am going to sell and buy a Honda before the year ends. My last car was a Honda and never had any problems.
I am so disappointed. I bought Toyota because I thought they were reliable. I loved how roomy the Avalon was. Now I realize that leg room doesn't help me when the car won't run.
Would love to know if anyone else has had similar problems. Perhaps my car just "fell off the truck" or maybe it got hit by lightning on the truck! What ever happened, it is a piece of junk. -
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695I think you got hit by lightning!
Rear lights that don't work can be a sign of an accident that has been repaired - have you owned it since new.
Have never had a problem with toyota power windows before, all the way out to cars that were 15 years old or more.
OTOH, their stereo speakers were never anything to write home about - no surprise there.
The old Avalons were always noisy too at high speeds - mainly tire and wind noise.
Six years old is a lot for only 56K - your batteries might be dying prematurely due to low use and consequent discharge. Either way, it does not need to be a guessing game. Just have someone measure the output of the alternator to see if it falls within specs. I'd be surprised if a Toyota alternator gave up the ghost after 56K.
The moaning noise sounds a lot more like the power steering pump than the rack and pinion - I think you need to go to a new dealer, and get a second opinion on the expensive repairs. They may be incompetent, or they may be milking you.
PS If you need a power steering pump, there are cheaper reputable places to get it replaced or repaired than the dealer.2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
tiredmom2 Posts: 3I think the dealer is incompetent. They don't know what is wrong. Either that or they think I am stupid enough to believe what ever they say and just hand them my check book. Maybe it is the woman thing. I came close to telling the guy that I have more degrees behind my name than he has neurons in his head. Not that my education helps me understand auto mechanics one bit, but it would have made me feel better to tell him off. I didn't waste my time. Just got my keys and left.
Anyway, I have called around and talked to some local mechanics. They can replace rack and pinion for $500. They will of course inspect it themselves before replacing to be certain that is indeed the real problem.
I took it to the dealer for eval to see if it might be something covered under a recall. Also, I had a coupon for a free inspection with printed list of required work and cost. When I went to pick the car up, they tried to charge me despite the free coupon. I protested and their response was "the visual inspection is free but the actual diagnosis costs". I told them they were full of it and I wasn't paying a penny since I already signed a work order for a "free inspection" that said it included a written list of recommended work and costs.
I have owned the car since it was new. I drive it just about everyday. I work about 20-30 minutes from home. All driving is highway driving. We use my car for family outings also- weekend errands, dinner, church, vacation.
When we lost all power while driving down the road, we were actually on vacation 6 hours away from home (and one hour from civilization). A local mechanic was kind enough to come out and help us back to our hotel until he could look at the car the next morning. After looking it over, he thought that maybe the alternator was stuck in the on position causing the batteries to overcharge.?? I don't know.
I am dumping this car as fast as I can and getting a Honda Pilot or Odyssey.
Speaking of rip off dealers, the Honda dealer tried a major scam on me when I had my old car. Years ago in college, I bought a used Honda Civic. It had been in a wreck before I bought it and the front end dented and rubbed a hole in the radiator. I replaced the radiator and had the front end repositioned to not rub on it any more. Not long afterwards, the air conditioner quit working.
I lived only 2 blocks from the dealer so thought I would have them check it real quick. Well, the guy comes out shaking his head and sits down and says he has bad news. He proceeds to show me a written list of all the things that need replacing including the radiator. He says the ENTIRE a/c system needs to be replaced for so many thousand dollars. I looked him in the eye and said "oh really, you mean my brand new radiator that I just had installed is already bad?" He knew he was busted and started stuttering, "uh, uh, well I didn't say it was bad. I'm just saying that it isn't a Honda part and so we should replace it." I took the car to a local mechanic who found a wire had popped loose. Cost me $50 bucks to replace the wire.
Despite the bad Honda dealer experience, the car was great. It was totalled by a teenager before I bought it. While I had it, a tree fell on it. All this and it just kept on ticking. -
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695this sounds like the solenoid for the lights in the armrest that stay on for a preset amount of time after you turn the car off, then turn themselves off. Could that be it?
nguyet - sounds like your HVAC fan might have died? Either that, or there is a problem with the electronic controls for the HVAC, but since manual blower speed lights light up, my vote is a dead fan.2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
mbt1 Posts: 33Thank you for your help. Your explanation sounds reasonable. On a related note, have you or anyone else on this forum noticed that when you press the rear window defroster on or off, there is a simultaneous "tick" sound in the fuse box area on the left side of the dash? The defroster works, but I was wondering if the sound is an indication of anything wrong. Thanks again for all of your help.
rdballer Posts: 16I believe the "tick" you are hearing is the relay that is being powered when you press the button to turn on the rear defroster. The power draw of the rear defroster is greater than the small switch you are pressing can handle. So, that button is simply powering a relay in the fuse box area that then sends power to the rear defroster.
You should also hear a "tick" sound if you leave the rear defroster on long enough for the timeout to take place (20 minutes I believe). That is when the relay timer cuts off power to the rear defroster so you don't "leave it on too long". -
jim243 Posts: 7I had the same problem with my 1997 XL. I went so far as to take the dashboard apart and removed the bulb in order to replace it. However, I found that the bulb was still good. The problem seemed to be in the dash display because it is one big circuit board. By flexing the dash slightly I was able to get the bulb to light. It was fine for about 6 months and it went out again. This time I figured that I was not about to take the whole dash apart again, so I decided to hit the top of the dash above where the bulb is located with my fist (not a very hard blow), and sure enough the light came back on. It has been over 5 months and it is working fine. Ihope that this helps you.
hmann Posts: 3The outdoor temperature gauge on my 2001 XLS (24K miles) has consistently read 4 to 5 degrees higher than the actual outside temperature, ever since I bought it.
The dealer states that there is no way that he can fix this. The thermometer is set at the factory and he can't change its reading.
Anybody else have this problem? Anybody have any luck getting it fixed? (In the meantime, I'm becoming expert in subtracting five from two-digit numbers; my first-grade teacher would be proud.) -
moonshadow Posts: 256If he cant adjust it, then have him replace the sending unit. ie the temp probe.
Since it has always been this way then perhaps the probe is defective or improperly manufactured.
They would have to have a high manufacturing tolerence for the probes or provide a adjustment for the variance of the probes. -
nippononly SF Bay AreaPosts: 12,695I think this is just about universal in the temp sensors that Toyota uses for the outside temperature readout. The one in my car is about 4-5 degrees high, and the one in my sister's Toyota too, and just about every Toyota rental I have ever had. For my guide I use the bank readouts that all agree with each other as to how much my car is off, as well as the National Weather Service reported temperature for my town at home.
Timing belts: if you are willing to allow the possibility of having to be towed, for avalon, camry, and some others just leave 'em a while. Everyone I know with a Toyota in the last ten years leaves them until at least 90K, and I have never known of anyone having one break.
Platinum plugs: I don't think this is just a thread thing, because you have to bear in mind that Toyo is using the iridium plugs in most of the new cars now, and those are good for 105K miles, so I don't think they are worried about threads. However, platinum plugs can deform in 60K, depending on your driving habits, so that the gap is degraded to the point of affecting emissions, which is why they change them. It is a cheap little insurance policy to help guarantee that your car will pass the next smog check. And BTW, you don't have to pay retail at the dealer's service department - order them on-line ahead of time to get that $5 price, then just tell your service advisor that the new plugs are "in the little bag on the passenger seat".2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)

kicker9 Posts: 56On the passenger side edge of the lens, in the very center, there is a small indentation for a flat bladed screwdriver to be partially inserted, insert the screwdriver into the slot and move the handle toward the passenger side window and the lens should pop off easily, there are 2 tabs on the opposite side that secure that edge in. Hope this helps.

avalonsad Posts: 1'96 Avy, less than 70k miles..woke up and wouldn't turn over. Charged battery for 2 hr til it turned over and then started driving around neighborhood...it died and pushed it home!
This a.m. clicks when trying to start and won't hold a charge...battery's not that old and I'm afraid to put it on the road in case it dies again. Battery? Relays? Our toyota dealer has made a fortune on this car -- suspension/struts already. -
fndlyfmrflyr Posts: 668Age of the battery means nothing. I've had virtually new batteries fail and I've had '48 month' batteries last twice that long. My 96's OE battery lasted 7 years.
If you have a volt meter available you can check to see if the alternator is charging the battery. Start the car (charge the battery or jump start) and check the voltage across the battery. It will be over 13 is the alternator is charging the battery.
If you check the battery before starting the car it should read 12 or just above. Less means you have a battery problem. If you can start the car without a jump look at the voltmeter while the car is cranking. If the voltage drops close to 10 or below 10 you have a bad cell in the battery.
If the battery is low on water cells fail sooner than when the water level is correct. The green eye on battery top checks only one cell. There are 6, so any of the others could be bad and the 'eye' would indicate a good battery. -

- You can only compete in one track, but can attend events in other tracks if you are interested.
- Read more about the different tracks here.
How to become a mentor or sponsor NVC?
Become a Mentor
Members of the business and alumni community can support CU's entrepreneurial ecosystem by serving as a mentor or judge for the NVC. Mentors provide valuable feedback, advice, and personal insight to teams as they go through the NVC. Each mentor is matched to a team for the duration of the NVC based on need and fit. The mentor and the mentee team structure the relationship. The baseline ask is that mentors have two meetings with their team (typically 1-2 hours per session) between November and March. If you are interested in acting as a mentor, or judging the NVC competitions, please contact Andy Evans.
Sponsor the NVC
Individuals and companies in the entrepreneurial business community can partner with the CU NVC consortium to support the New Venture Challenge. The NVC is successful, in large part, because of the generous gifts from supporters. We are currently looking for sponsors for the NVC 7. If you are interested in supporting entrepreneurship at CU, please contact Andy Evans.

Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandes, who forayed into Bollywood in 2009, says she finds inspiration in British-born actress Katrina Kaif, who has carved her own niche and battled language problems to become the "success" that she is despite being an outsider for the Indian film industry.
"I would like to mention Katrina Kaif because she is someone that I can relate to a lot. She has come from abroad amd she has come from London. She went through the same language problems and not being from the industry...so I can relate to her a lot. She is such a success story that I have to mention that she is an inspiration," Jacqueline said here Tuesday at the Women's Prerna Awards 2013.
The 28-year-old actress made her Bollywood debut with "Aladin" opposite Ritesh Deshmukh, whereas Katrina made her acting debut here with the 2003 film "Boom". But she gave hits after hits post Vipul Shah's 2007 offering "Namastey London".
At the event, Jacqueline performed on some of her songs including the recent number "Lath Lag Gayi" from "Race 2".

Everyone is going crazy about Lindsay Lohan's plans to sue E-Trade for their commercials depicting a talking "milk-aholic" baby, which Lindsay claims was clearly meant to represent her. We think the only "crazy" thing about Lindsay's lawsuit is that she's playing it so low-key by only going after $100 million, when she should actually be aiming her lawyers at taking down the vast conspiracy of powerful forces hell-bent on destroying her (the E-Trade people are just the tip of the iceberg).
Here are 5 more entities that definitely deserve to feel the full wrath of Lindsay Lohan's Crack Legal Team:
1. Those "Got Milk?" Ads -- Everyone knows that these ads were really saying, "Got alcohol? Then give it to Lindsay Lohan, because she is an alcoholic and we are going to profit from this and not give her any of the money -- MWUAHAHAHAHA!"
2. The Super Bowl -- If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, it doesn't make a sound. And similarly, if E-Trade makes a commercial about milk-loving talking babies, one of which happens to be named Lindsay, and the Super Bowl isn't there to air it to millions of people, Lindsay Lohan would still be rich and famous and everyone would like her. Also, they didn't even, like, invite her
3. Wall Street -- Lindsay doesn't really know what E-Trade does, but it seems to have something to do with stock-swapping, so basically she should sue the entire global financial industry for that whole $700 billion bailout thing they got (which was really about her -- "bailout", "problems", duh) and a starring role in Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps (guess who else never sleeps? -- So obvious what this is really about!)
4. The Whole Internet -- Everyone knows the Internet is basically just a big catalog of information about Lindsay Lohan, and it's been getting away with this scam for years. It's finally time she put her foot down before The Internet comes up with an entirely new service dedicated solely to talking about (and profiting from) Lindsay Lohan like it did with Twitter and Facebook (more like "LindsayLohanBook"!)
5. Herself -- Her ridiculous lawsuit is generating so much free publicity for these E-Trade people, that she should sue herself for a million-bajillion dollars. Sure, she'll be broke after she has to pay the settlement, but she'll be giving the money right back to herself, so, YAY!

Israel does not exist, it is a myth, a setting for a lie to set
in the world of its believers.
Though when believers kill to delude the world they testify against their own nature, and so goes the world to the myth.
Revelations 3:9
"And behold, I grant some of the synagogue of Satan, of those who say about themselves that they are Jews and are not, but they are lying, behold, I shall make them come and worship before your feet and to know that I love you."
John 8:44
"You are from your father The Devil, and the desire of your father you are willing to do; from the beginning he has been murdering men and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him; whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from what is his, because he is of falsehood and is also its father."
"Nobody can force us to hate," she says. "We refuse to be enemies."
-Bishara ("Gospel") Nassar
Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)
Leo Tolstoy is one of the greatest writers known
Tolstoy believed that a man could find ever-lasting happiness striving for self-perfection following pacifism, loving one's neighbour, and God, rather than looking outward to the Church guidance.
A true flower can not blossom without sunlight and a true man can not live without love.

La Evolución Del Subalterno En Tres Novelas Mexicanas: La Negra Angustias, Balún Canán, Y Neonao
Date: May 2013
Creator: Bowen, LaVerne Alexandra
Description: The subaltern is a recurrent literary figure in Mexican narrative. The objective of this thesis is to investigate three ethnic groups – indeed, subalterns – in Mexico which include: Afro-Mexicans, indigenous groups, and Filipino colonial subjects from the perspectives of the Mexican Revolution, post-revolutionary Mexico, and the conquest of the Philippines in the sixteenth century. The principal characters play crucial roles in events shaping the history and culture of Mexico and thus demonstrate their importance to the country's development while also revealing the reality of subalterns. The literary research shows that trying circumstances or a lack of self-identity were the main causes for a character to be or become a subaltern in addition to their inherent ethnic disadvantages. However, the characters who overcame their subaltern state often changed personality traits or adapted to their surroundings in order to be assimilated into the majority culture.

La Tradición Erótica Y La Vanguardia En La Poesía De Ernestina De Champourcín
Date: December 2011
Creator: Lazarus, Mirta L.
Description: The unfolding of eroticism always has been controlled socially; its expression forbidden for the women and accepted for the men. Ernestina de Champourcín's poetry is an example of the presence of eroticism and the Avant-Garde in Spanish poetry. Champourcín becomes a member of the Generation of '27 after appearing in the prologue of Gerardo Diego's anthology, Poesía Española Contemporßnea (1934). According to this thesis, the shortage of studies on her work is due to her exile, not to the Spanish Civil War. The exposition celebrates the life and work of Champourcín and studies the relationship between the Avant-Garde and sensuality in her poetry and in poems of Pedro Salinas and Vicente Aleixandre. It compares their individual handling of the Avant-Garde, the sexual act, and love, and concludes that Champourcín's poetry is as Avant-Garde and erotic as the works of her companions of the Generation of '27.

El Pensamiento de José Martí tergiversado como Ideología Política y de Lucha por la Revolución Cubana
Date: December 2011
Creator: Hidalgo, Ángel L.
Description: The political ideologies that Martí envisioned of an America free from the inherited yoke of European ideals were taken by Fidel Castro as an anti-imperialist discourse. Therefore, Marti's political vision on the power that the United States began to carry out at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century was an excellent strategy to establish the anti-imperialist character of the Cuban revolution. Since 1961, Castro set Martí as the face of his Marxist-Leninist ideology to institute his anti-American philosophy; Castro created a myth of Marti's persona, and converted him into the bastion of his political ideology. As a result, Castro distorted the revolutionary ideas of Marti's. Castro proposed his ideas out of context and portrayed the incorrect idea of this great thinker and poet. Martí's human ethic and love for the independence of Cuba placed Martí as a liberator of revolutionary and progressive ideas of his generation. Martí was not thought as a dictator and never was a man who lacked democratic values. The expressed analytical assimilation of Martí on his sociopolitical and economic juncture that was presented in America and Cuba was used to trace the political anti-imperialist propaganda by the dictatorial regime ...

The Ideological Appropriation of La Malinche in Mexican and Chicano Literature
Date: August 2013
Creator: Moriel Hinojosa, Rita Daphne
Description: La Malinche is one of the most controversial figures in Mexican and Chicano literature. The historical facts about her life before and after the Spanish Conquest are largely speculative. What is reliably known is that she had a significant role as translator, which developed into something of mythic proportions. The ideological appropriation of her image by three authors, Octavio Paz, Laura Esquivel and Cherríe Moraga, are explored in this thesis. The full extent of the proposed rendition of La Malinche by Octavio Paz is the basis of the second chapter. The conclusion drawn by Paz, in The Labyrinth of Solitude (1950) is that La Malinche is what he calls la chingada [the raped/violated one] and proposes that all women are always open to conquest, sexually and otherwise. Laura Esquivel's novel Malinche (2006) is a re-interpretation that focuses on the tongue as the source of power and language as the ultimate source of autonomy for La Malinche. This aspect of La Malinche and the contrast of Paz's understanding are the basis of the third chapter of this thesis. Cherríe Moraga, in Loving in the War Years (1983), proposes that if women are to be traitors, it is not each other that ...

El ékfrasis en la Poesía De Manual Machado
Date: May 2011
Creator: Carrillo, Yolanda
Description: Manuel Machado is known as one of the most innovative Spanish modernist poets of the twentieth century. Despite his recognition as a literary figure in Spain, the mimetic descriptions in Machado's poetics are interpreted as mere innovations in Spanish poetry. Those mimetic descriptions are examples of ekphrasis in Spanish literature. Ekphrasis is both a literary and representational art. The mimetic dimension in Machado's poetry is ignored or misinterpreted by the critics of his poetics. This study written in Spanish investigates the use of ekphrasis in terms of Machado's poetic style. An analysis of Manuel Machado's ekphrastic poems will determine: ekphrastic poetry is a representational art; how visual and acoustic aspects of Machado's poems create enargeia; and the manifestation of ekphrasis in Spanish verse. In using Machado's poems, this project will contribute to future explorations of ekphrasis in Spanish literature.

Social Networking, Workplace, and Entertainment Literacies: the Out-of-school Literate Lives of Newcomer Latina/o Adolescents
Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community.
Date: August 2012
Creator: Stewart, Mary Amanda
Description: Studies indicate that Latina/o immigrant youth engage in a wide range of sophisticated literacy practices outside of school that are often transnational, crossing various linguistic, cultural, and social spaces. Technology has further afforded immigrant youth the opportunity to develop transnational capabilities which are rare in the mainstream population, yet needed in the 21st century of global connectedness. However, Latino immigrant youth drop out of school at disproportional rates, suggesting that their literacy practices are not recognized or valued by the educational system. Using a New Literacy Studies perspective that recognizes multiple literacies that are meaningful within their sociocultural traditions, this collective case study investigated the range, form, and purpose of the out-of-school literacies of four Latina/o adolescent English Learners who are new arrivals. The qualitative methodology employed constructivist interviews, digital and actual artifacts, and observations. Findings demonstrated that the most prevalent out-of-school literacies the participants practice take place on the social networking site of Facebook, in their workplaces, and through the entertainment media sources of music and television. A cross-case analysis suggests that the literacy practices in these spaces have unique and purposeful roles for the individuals that allow them to connect to their home countries and maintain their Latina/o ...

Bobby Creekwater - The B.C. Era

Lead Single: Rainman

DJBooth Album Review
Creekwater has emerged from his native Atlanta with two keys things going for him: there may not be a more fitting name for a Southern rapper than Creekwater (his government name is Antoine Rogers), and his rhymes impressed Eminem enough to earn him a spot on the Shady Records roster. Now, after releasing several mixtapes and garnering lofty praise from such unlikely places as the Washington Post, Bobby finally appears ready to release his debut album, A Brilliant Mistake. In order to continue to build his, dare I say it, hype, he's dropped The B.C. Era EP, a nine-track collection that's a reminder that if you impress Eminem, you're probably a damn good rapper.
I won't lie to you. I underestimated Creekwater. I had him unfairly pegged as a mid-level rapper who was destined to languish in hip-hop purgatory, but halfway through the EP I realized that underneath all the toughness flowed a current of hidden lyricism. Just take Rainman, a slowly paced track that's a surprising mixture of southern swagger and east coast-esque production. Creekwater has a way of drawing you in lyrical complexity like, "the white's like a summer in the South Pole," then dropping a well placed "motherf**ker" to remind you where he's from. It's a similar story on Not Yet, a cut that undercuts a subdued violin section with riding Southern production, resulting in a track that's equal parts swagger and social consciousness. Creekwater is at his best on Not Yet, waxing eloquent about his newfound wealth without forgetting his people on the block who aren't so lucky. It's that combination of lyricism and hustle that's drawn numerous comparisons between him and T.I., though Creekwater has a long way to go before he's the King (right now he's more like a knight, maybe an earl at best). From the introspective Not Too Late to the comic Calm Down, The B.C. Era is the EP of a man who has a lot of potential. If only he could turn potential into action.
If Creekwater's going to truly rise above the masses he's going to have some hit singles. Sorry folks, those are the rules. I didn't make 'em up. While nothing on The B.C. Era would likely have even an outside shot at making some noise on the radio, it does contain some hints at how BC would break through to a measure of mainstream success. (Then again, I'm In Miami Trick became a hit and I'd rather drink bleach than listen to that song, so what do I know.) Clouds is a Southern soaked banger along the lines of Dey Know, except instead of a borderline retarded Shawty Lo we get the melodically hard flow of Creekwater. Unfortunately, When I Go, the most overtly street joint on the EP, doesn't fare nearly as well. The strip club bass line ironically strips Creekwater of his personality; he hasn't quite figured out how to make his music truly move. Still, while The B.C. Era is only an appetizer, it's more than good enough to add me to the list of people who are officially "eagerly awaiting" A Brilliant Mistake. Let's just hope his debut album lives up to the hype.

Exploring new horizons? Abu Dhabi's Aabar considers write-down of $1.9 bln rhb deal
The write-off makes long-term sense for the fund says experts; Aabar would then likely end up with a stake in a bigger bank with a stronger valuation.
August 16, 2011 11:22 by Reuters
Abu Dhabi fund Aabar is considering a write-down of its $1.9 billion purchase of a 25-percent stake in Malaysia's RHB Capital , a source said, after the deal's rich pricing helped scupper long-awaited consolidation in Malaysia's banking sector.
Aabar agreed to pay 10.80 ringgit per share in June for Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank's quarter stake in RHB, valuing Malaysia's fifth largest lender at around $7.2 billion, or 2.25 times its book value.
Malaysia's two largest banks, Maybank and CIMB Group , which had been planning a full takeover of RHB, subsequently pulled out of the deal citing the high price paid by Aabar.
Aabar, the largest single stake owner in both Daimler and commodities giant Glencore , has internally discussed valuing the deal lower to encourage Maybank and CIMB to come back with an offer for RHB, a banking source with direct knowledge of the matter said.
The fund would then likely end up with a stake in a bigger bank with a stronger valuation.
"As long-term investors, it makes sense for Aabar to be part of a larger entity which has a higher valuation than RHB, plus a lowered deal will also make a lot of people in Malaysia happy," the source said, declining to be identified as talks are not public.
ADCB would still get the full $1.91 billion payment and Aabar would likely book a paper loss for the investment, the source said. Aabar may revalue the asset at 1.7-1.8 times book value, the source said, meaning Aabar would have to write down the value of its holding by as much as 24 percent, or $450 million.
Aabar did not respond to repeated requests for comment via phone and email, while ADCB declined to comment.
A home-grown takeover of RHB would have been a big step for Malaysia's banking sector where an earlier round of mergers in 1998 cut the number of lenders to 10 from 54, and could spark further deals in the region.
"Valuations are reasonable at 1.7-1.8 times book," a Malaysian analyst told Reuters. "If you look at the other smaller banks, say Alliance Financial , they are trading between 1.5 to 1.7 times book."
The analyst, who cannot be identified as he was not authorised to speak to the media, said a write-down by Aabar would send a clear invitation to Maybank and CIMB to come back to the table after its earlier pricing gaffe.
"ADCB and Aabar tried to force Maybank and CIMB to fork out the money with the 10.80 ringgit bid, but they didn't realise that they would walk away," he said.
A CIMB banker who was involved in the earlier negotiations of the deal told Reuters that the bank would only relook at RHB at a price below 8.60 ringgit per share,
