The Malaysian national carrier said that the six British passport holders were travelling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur on board the Boeing 777-200.
A spokesman from The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said it was working to identify any British victims of the tragedy. "We are aware of the reports and are urgently working to establish what has happened," he said.
While the cause of the crash has not been determined, US Vice President Joe Biden said cautiously suggested that jet crash was "not an accident" but "apparently blown out of the sky", while a US official said that, while its origin was unclear, a surface-to-air missile was probably responsible.

Dee Snider Explains How Celine Dion Paid for His House
Dee Snider had only one request when producer Ric Wake called asking if Celine Dion could cover a Christmas song composed by the Twisted Sister frontman for his wife.
Dee Snider had only one request when producer Ric Wake called asking if Celine Dion could cover a Christmas song composed by the Twisted Sister frontman for his wife.
Did Robert Plant once serve as Dee Snider's opening act? It sounds crazy, but it actually happened.
Loverboy's 'Working for the Weekend' and Twisted Sister singer Dee Snider are among the '80s stars leading an attack on a Radio Shack store in a new Super Bowl commercial.
Chicago's theater scene will get a dose of heavy rock 'n' roll next year, when 'Dee Snider's Rock & Roll Christmas Tale' will premiere at the Broadway Playhouse during the 2014 holiday season.
Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider has a side gig playing Lance Rockett -- lead singer of the Van Halen tribute band Dyver Down -- on the FEARnet sitcom 'Holliston.' And to mark the occasion of the show's second season finale on Tuesday night (Aug. 6), the full video for Dyver Down's first original song was released online.
In nearly 30 years of cross-dressing in the public eye, Dee Snider has had to learn how to laugh at himself. That ability came in handy on Thursday (Jan. 24) night, as the Twisted Sister frontman was the guest of honor at a roast at the Grove of Anaheim in Anaheim, Calif.
Lovers of classic horror films will be able to join together for Halloween Week 2013 when the inaugural "Ship of Fear: A Horror Cruise," sails from Miami to the Bahamas and back. Musical entertainment on the cruise will be provided by two stars who were clearly influence by the genre, Alice Cooper and Dee Snider of Twisted Sister.

That I've been thinking about trading/selling my Ruger SR9c in order to get the Kimber Solo? I really like my Ruger and it's been a great gun. When I first saw the photos of the Solo I thought it was terribly ugly. And the reviews so far have not been too stellar either. But now the more I see it, the more I kind of want one. Is it bad that I'm having these thoughts?

I would keep the Ruger. The reports and reviews I've read so far on the Solo have not been good either. Besides the Ruger SR9c being a great gun (from my experience with it) it also has the advantage of having a lifetime warranty whereas Kimber only offers a one year warranty.
"It's a gun you loaded on Sunday, and shot all week." -Confederate Soldier "If God didn't create man equal then Sam Colt had made them equal." -Unknown "Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything." -Wyatt Earp
Ah-ha. I failed to consider the warranty differences. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
You're welcome, Olympus. Kimber makes some good handguns, but the warranty issue and the fact some of their firearms are a hit or miss turn me away from Kimber.
If you have a little 9mm that works, keep it! The solo isn't worth near what they're asking imo.
I agree. They've got them all hyped up and they're probably keeping the supply low to build even more hype to keep the price up. I doubt I would pay the prices that they're at on GB right now, that's for sure.
I don't own a Kimber but I do have a Solo Carry on order. I won't speak to the quality at the range as I've seen the negative reviews too, but I do see them continually beat up on the price point. Compared to the carry Kahr PM9, Walther PPS and Ruger LC9, the other pistols I considered, the price difference didn't strike me as that bad... and having held and inspected all side-by-side, I think the Solo Carry is worth a little more. Hopefully my opinion won't change when I FINALLY get mine and have the chance to shoot it : )
I just read an article from Guns&Ammo comparing and contrasting the Springfield EMP, Ruger LC9, Kimber Solo, Kahr PM9, and Sig 290 (or 250... memory is shot more than my pistols!)... There were 3 or 4 guys who all handled the 5 pistols sharing their thoughts and then each gun had over 1200 rounds through them comparing accuracy and ergonomics... I think the Kimber is pretty but the guys writing this article ranked the Solo pretty low. Infact, if I remember correctly, only the Sig rated lower... Price considered, I would look elsewhere if you want something other than your SR9c... I have the fullsize SR9 and I am in love after over a year and 3,000 plus rounds of everything I could get my hands on...
I shot one and it was junk! Fit and finish was poor and the gun looked long in the tooth even though it was almost brand new. I think Kimber came up short on this offering! I'd stick with the SR9C. Want more proof?Let me google that for you Not quite "glock-leg" status......yet!

I have a question about the cause of a layer of green on top of the soil of the plants I've been taking care of. I'm working in a greenhouse and was in production most of the year and a few of our watering staff was laid off and now I'm watering 8 hoops that have plants in all stages of their growth. They all have a layer of green on top of the soil making it difficult to water and tell if the soil is dry or wet. None of the other hoops at the greenhouse have this problem, even though it's all the same soil. What is the cause of this green layer and what should I do to correct the problem? |

Bahias De Huatulco, Oaxaca -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/12/2014 -- Most Huatulco hotels are not specifically designed to cater to large families or close friends who want to spend private quality time together. In a traditional resort-style hotel, large family groups are often separated into a string of individual hotel rooms with no private common areas in which to spend quality time together. For large groups planning a vacation to the Huatulco region of Mexico, consider staying in the privacy and luxury of a private condo or villa rental from MHV. These rental properties offer spacious luxury for up to 36 guests. These luxurious rentals offer a large number of bedrooms and bathrooms for individual guests along with common areas for large groups. The properties also come with a large number of optional and included amenities, such as a private pool, a stocked pantry, and personal chef service.
Even at some of the finer Huatulco hotels, this added bonus of indoor and outdoor common areas for the exclusive use of your large group is not an available option. Although many of the finer hotels offer beautiful lobbies, game rooms, and pool areas, these are often crowded with other tourists and guests. For the ultimate in intimacy and relaxation that can only come with the privacy of your own rental property, MHV supplies many properties with all the amenities of large resorts with none of the crowd. There is also an additional bonus for large groups: a rental from MHV can often cost less per person than renting a large number of hotel rooms.
For the most comprehensive list of over 140 of the best Huatulco villas and condos available for rent, visit the easily-navigated MyHuatulcoVacation.com website to explore the details of all of available properties, including pricing, square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, number of guests accommodated, pictures, available amenities, and local restaurants. The travel company's website even offers a one-click view of the dates that each property is currently available. MHV has quality relationships with homeowners in the area, allowing them to offer the most extensive collection of rental properties of any travel accommodation company in the Costa Chica region.
About MHV
The knowledgeable representatives at MHV understand that finding the perfect Huatulco villas and rental properties is a critical component of any dream vacation. MHV is absolutely committed to pairing each and every client with the perfect rental property. Whether an individual guest or a large group, whatever the budget is, and whatever amenities travelers seek, MHV representatives can find the perfect property for an unforgettable vacation.

Presidents That Had Affairs
Philandering vs. Faithful: Presidents
Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky may be the best known, but he's far — so far — from the only president to wander. Can you guess which presidents have philandered and which have stayed faithful. At least as far as we know!

JFK was a adulterous pig. 2 versions re: Sally Hemmings: the relationship wasn't consumated until after his wife died so therefore it wasn't an affair. Or the second version: Thomas Jefferson started the affair with Sally Hemmings before his wife died. Some sources even have it that his wife was aware of the affair. It took years, but it was proven through DNA testing that he was the father of the child. And P.S. Sally was a slave and also the half sister of his wife. She was one of the slaves Mrs. Jefferson inherited after her father died.

Lies can become truth when they are reused, or rather, recycled over and over. I feel that's the case with President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I will always continue to question allegations,rumors, etc... of unfaithfulness/extramarital affairs. There was a time when I didn't make much of that regarding John F. Kennedy. The President and his wife First Lady Jacqueline Lee Kennedy became even much more closer after losing another child, their Patrick Bouvier Kennedy from Infant Respiratory Distress Disease. Jackie K. suffered a miscarriage in 1955 then a stillborn birth (Arabella Kennedy) in 1956. Both Mrs. JLK and her husband went through a lot regarding their children. They would've been the parents of 5 children had they didn't suffer those three loses. After the death of Patrick, their bond as husband and wife grew. And how could that not? Losing not just one but three children like that(one unborn). People have just taken this extramarital thing and run with it.

TJ was faithful to his wife. He grieved at her bedside while she was dying, and everyone in the room heard her make him swear to never remarry.
Sally Hemmings was his wife's half sister, by the way. That affair came years after his wife died.

A federal judge on Friday found the department run by the self-professed "toughest sheriff in America'' was guilty of racial profiling and ordered the agency's practices permanently halted.
In a 140-page ruling, Judge Murray Snow said members of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Department, under the direction of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, were detaining individuals they believed to be in this country illegally without some other reason to arrest them for violating any state laws. Snow said that continued to occur even after the Department of Homeland Security revoked the MCSO's authority to identify and detain those not in the country legally.
The judge also said that department policy and practice allows officers to consider the race of a vehicle's occupants in determining whether they have reasonable suspicion to investigate them for violation of any state immigration laws.
"In some instances these policies result in prolonging the traffic stop beyond the time necessary to resolve the issue that initially justified the stop,'' Snow wrote. And he said that, absent some reasonable suspicion of criminal activity, holding people longer than necessary violates their constitutional rights against unreasonable search and seizure.
Snow said that entitled Hispanic individuals who sued to an injunction permanently barring the sheriff's department from using Hispanic ancestry or race to determine whether to stop a vehicle. It also prohibits deputies from detaining or arresting Latino vehicle occupants on a belief that they are in this country illegally if race is the only factor they have.
The order also bars the agency from detaining Latino occupants of vehicles stopped for traffic violations any longer than necessary to process the citation unless they have "reasonable suspicion'' that any are committing a federal or state crime.
Arpaio told Capitol Media Services he does not believe his agency engages in racial profiling.
"That's why we're going to appeal it,'' he said.
Byt Dan Pochoda, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona, said the ruling confirms the allegations that Latinos have been "terrorized'' by MCSO deputies and "forced to endure years of racial harassment and abuse.'' And Pochoda, in a prepared statement, said all that can be laid at the feet of "Arpaio's proven willingness to seek political gain at the expense of public safety and constitutional guarantees.''
Snow said that, at least on paper, the instructions to deputies were that vehicles were not to be stopped based on the race of any subject in a vehicle.
But he said evidence painted a somewhat different picture.
"While officers were prohibited from using race as the only basis to undertake a law enforcement investigation, they were allowed as a matter of policy and instruction to consider race as one factor among others in making law enforcement decisions in the context of immigration enforcement,'' the judge wrote.
Snow reached his ruling after reviewing years of crime prevention "saturation patrols'' by the department. He said these were far from neutral.
"The MCSO almost always scheduled its day labor and small-scale saturation patrols where Latino day laborers congregated,'' he said. "The same is true for a considerable number of its large-scale saturation patrols.''
And Snow said it is clear that the purpose of these patrols was to enforce immigration laws, citing the news releases issued by the agency's public relations department.
"These news releases either emphasized that the patrols' purpose was immigration enforcement, or prominently featured the number of unauthorized aliens arrested during such operations,'' Snow said. "Most of the time, the reports ignored any other arrests that took place.''
Snow also said the saturation operations were just a pretext to stop vehicles with people who may be in this country illegally.
"During saturation patrols, participating deputies conducted many stops for minor violations of the traffic code, including minor equipment violations,'' the judge said. "This departments from MCSO's traffic enforcement priorities during regular patrols.''
And Snow said that, generally speaking, deputies "had no difficulty in finding a basis to stop any vehicle they wished for a traffic infraction.''

Hyundai Heavy Industries said Monday that it will hire 500 engineers over the next four years and open an engineering center in March, a hint that it sees plant business picking up.
The company, the world's largest shipbuilder by orders, expects to add 130 engineers in March alone. The additions will make Hyundai Heavy's workforce bigger than ever, it said in a statement, and they come on top of its 900 planning engineers based in Ulsan. It cited increasing electricity demand, especially in the Middle East, for the growth.
"We came to need a large number of engineers as orders for onshore and offshore plants, largely from the Middle East, are on a sharp increase these days amid rising oil prices," company spokesman Park Zoon-soo said. Read More »

When we are looking at the Marvin windows on display I noticed that when the casement window was open the whole perimeter of the window has an opening like a tunnel where IMO dirt, gunk and grime will collect. My Anderson's only have an open are where the locking clips go in when the window is closed. Just curious to know if anyone else has issues with this? Also don't care for the black weather stripping on a white window. |
Follow-Up Postings:
What you are looking at is called an accessory kerf. It's purpose is allow Marvin to mull or join windows. A mull clip snaps into that kerf cleaning up the mull. There is a piece available as an option that will fill that "tunnel" on all four sides. As for the weatherstrip, there are three color options: black, beige, or white. Not sure why they chose black on a white window. |

The Marvin quoting system defaults to black weatherstrip so if you wish to have them with a different color you need to make certain that this is changed. At least that was the way it was back when I was selling them but they may have changed the system. |
I wonder if I am working with someone who doesn't know their stuff.....I told them I didn't like that opening around the window and they never mentioned anything so I called Marvin and they said that is the way it is. Nothing I can do about it. Hmmmm, think I will have to call again. They also told me the weatherstripping only comes in black. |
As I said earlier, you can't order a window without the kerf but you can get a piece that covers it (part# A1538). Reference that part number when you next discuss this with someone. And the Marvin quote system (OMS)defaults to white weather strip when you choose white cladding but you can also choose beige or black if wanted. I would recommend that you talk to someone else with more experience or contact your local distributor. Go to marvin.com and check the dealer locator to see if you have a Design Gallery nearby. These dealers sell only Marvin. |

Ah thanks for the heads up eastbay been a few years, lol. |
ok, I think we might be talking about 2 different things. See picture. As you can see the window in the picuture has wood around the frame except for where the lock is, in the Marvin it is open. I called again and they said that is just the way it is. |
I never have had dirt in those gaps as an issue on my Marvin Casements. If you do your window is not sealing up. My father in law has that problem in his Pella windows but that is the least of his concerns since they rotting out and bowed. |

The editor,

cartoon, adding that the cartoon had been "interpreted as anti-Islamic

Salaries, Job Offers Up for Business Undergrads
Posted by: Louis Lavelle on February 10, 2011
Undergraduates in general, and undergraduate business students in particular, have reason to rejoice. New surveys by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) show that employers are planning to increase their college hiring by double digits this year, and that salaries are up for the first time since 2008.
Employers responding to NACE surveys reported plans to increase hiring from the Class of 2011 by 13.5 percent over the prior year. The latest poll, in January, showed that 51.5 percent of respondents planned to increase hiring, the first time in 18 months that a majority reported such plans.
In the latest salary survey, the average salary offer to a Class of 2011 graduate was $50,034, up 3.5 percent year over year, with increases reported for two thirds of academic disciplines.
Business majors as a group had the biggest increase, with salaries increasing nearly 2 percent to $48,089. Accounting majors saw salaries surge 2.2 percent to $49,022, while salaries for finance majors increased 1.9 percent to $50,535. Business administration and marketing majors weren't so lucky. Salaries for business administration majors were down 2.3 percent to $44,171 and salaries for marketing majors were down 1.3 percent to $41,948.
The real money was in electrical engineering (up 4.4 percent to $61,690) and mechanical engineering (up 3.8 percent to $60,598). Civil engineers, meanwhile, took the biggest hit: salaries declined 7.1 percent to $48,885.

Kamoizumi Aged Nama SE04 "Red Maple"
This is straight up a "different sort of sake." A two year-aged "fresh" sake doesn't make sense, but the result is really a uniquely flavored brew that is extremely tasty and is an all-together different sake experience. The nose is a great collection of dried fruit, honey, citrus and musky elements. Fat and gooey this brew has a rich honey characteristic that speaks to after dinner drink fans. Is it complex or quaffable? Or is it both? Look for sweet honey, tangerine, and raisin flavors on a smokey fluid that is sort of a condensed nama flow. Port and Sherry fans rejoice! WORD: Rich WINE: Port/Sherry BEER: Sweet Ales FOODS: Meat and Game, hugely flavored fare, cheese plates and cigars! (2012)

Neusiok Indians, Neuse Indians, Neuse Tribe. An unclassified tribe, perhaps of Iroquoian stock, found in 1584 occupying the country on the south side of lower Neuse river, within the present Craven and Carteret Counties, North Carolina. They were at war with the more southerly coast tribes. In the later colonial period the Indians of the same region were commonly known as Neuse Indians and had dwindled by the year 1700 to 15 warriors in two towns, Chattooka and Rouconk. They probably disappeared by incorporation with the Tuscarora.

I totally appreciate the help I got here for my bedroom paint color. When the painters come to do that, I am also having our living room painted. Currently, this is the color: The above picture is how the color looks most of the day. I neither love it nor hate it. What I do hate is how the color looks when the sun comes pouring in mid-afternoon or so (Western exposure). Then it turns neon like this: I kind of like the yellow tones with the furniture so my first instinct was an off-white with a slight yellow undertone. But I have had samples on the walls, and even the slightest bit of yellow turns electric in the afternoon sun. It's amazing to me. So I have now ruled out anything with a yellow tone and I'm stumped. Especially with the fireplace stones thrown into the equation. The color I chose will take up quite a bit of real estate, as the walls run through our entry and up to the bedroom level landing, and down to the lower level. Here's the idea: Oh yes there is also a substantial overhang running around the house, so until the afternoon sun comes in the light is not plentiful despite the many windows. Any ideas? As always, your suggestions are much appreciated! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I think both pictures look lovely, but if you don't like it, try picking up a shade from the rug. Do I see a gray-green there? I have BM Mount Saint Anne in my northwest facing living room and it is lovely, with no yellow at all. However, I have lots of white trim so that might make a difference. Perhaps a grayed white? maybe BM Sheep's Wool? The BM site suggests it with Clay, which is similar to your floors and sofas. |
Here is a link that might be useful: BM Sheep's Wool
agree with junco. I was going to suggest a color with a green undertone rather than yellow. Mount Saint Anne is a gorgeous color. |
I've used Mt St Anne and love it, but it may be too blue for you. Look at BM Coastal Fog -have it in my kitchen and love it. Also, are you using flat or matte? I think that would help keep the color soft in the late afternoon sun, rather than going with an eggshell sheen. |
Thanks for the feedback. The Mount Saint Anne is a beautiful color. I think it's too blue for my room, but I am going to test in in my guest room, where it just might work. Lovely! Bestyears, the paint right now has a matte finish. It still lights up in the sun, but I will have to be careful of that when I choose my paint. Very good point. I will get some strips for the gray hues suggested. I think that path might work. There are actually stripes of a grayish blue or bluish gray in the rug, but I've always been more drawn to greens than blues. Here's a better shot of the rug. |
sas95 - are you able to get California Paints in your area? I think they may only be sold in New England (despite the name!). There is a color called Historic Morning Dew that is a lovely green-blue combo and it looks great with warm sandy colors like you have in your room. I think a green/blue color could work in your space as others have suggested. Your living room is gorgeous by the way! |
What a gorgeous rug and room -where is the rug from? Now that I've seen the closeup, I'm convinced more than ever that Coastal Fog would be beautiful. |
Honestly, I think what I'd do in that room, because it is so Scandanavian looking, is paint the walls a soft white and paint the ceiling a tan. |
- Posted by may_flowers (My Page) on Fri, Jul 25, 14 at 15:56
I went through the same ordeal last year and painted SW Antique White. It has no yellow in the formula but the outside light tints it yellow, though not as bright as your room. I wish I could have eliminated the yellow all together, but all the other neutral beiges/tans were either fleshy or dull putty. SW has a neat little brochure called Whites and Lights, with 56 colors categorized by warm and cool undertones. I would spend some time exploring them before going blue. Having seen your kitchen and MB, it seems green, orange (in rugs and wood), and cream are your repeating colors. |
BM Powder Sand on the walls; BM Mansfield Tan on the ceiling. |
Marinagal, we can get California Paints where I live, and I love that color. But I do think it might be a little blue for my color scheme in general. They do have that brand where I regularly buy my paints, though, so I will look at the strip. Bestyears, the rug is from Stark. We have a Stark Outlet nearby where they sell discontinued styles and irregulars, and I've been pretty lucky there. The Coastal Fog color looks beautiful in your room, and I will look at it. Tibbrix, I have been looking at soft whites, as that was really the only idea I had after all yellow tones bombed out. So far the leading contender is BM Dove Wing, which seems to read soft white at points in the day, and a very slight gray with a hint of green at others. Also not bad was White Dove, but I'm afraid of it being too bright in large doses. Also tried BM Swiss Coffee, which I have in the master bath and it works great there, but in this room it's in 3rd place of the three. May_flowers, I have tried the SW Antique White and from seeing it in rooms online I thought it was going to be "the one." But in my room it looks a greenish gold. I was very sad about that. Thanks for the info on the SW brochure. It sounds as if it could be helpful. |

I'm afraid the outside is going to paint any light color you chose, so I didn't expect AW to work. I tried so many samples over two years and settled for AW, but I'd still like to repaint it some day as it's not exactly what I wanted. At least in my case the occasional yellow is only in the hallways and stairwells. I'll be interested in what you come up with. |
I love bestyears's Coastal Fog! |
Think I found the PERFECT color: BM Cream Fleece. It's gorgeous; no yellow undertone. |
This post was edited by Tibbrix on Sat, Jul 26, 14 at 19:15
Tibbrix, that is a pretty color! I wonder what the undertones are. I will definitely check it out. Thank you! |
sas, I think I'm going to paint my dining room in the Cream Fleece. Seems like almost a perfect cream. Btw, that rug is really beautiful. |
This post was edited by Tibbrix on Sun, Jul 27, 14 at 8:07
I was looking at the picture below from this month's Architectural Digest. There are plenty of earth tones in this room, as mine has. Their wall color looks so pretty. According to the magazine, it's BM White Dove. I wonder if my room could look like that and not be screaming stark white. I suppose the trim in this room has something to do with it. Not to mention the professional lighting. |
This post was edited by sas95 on Sun, Jul 27, 14 at 9:40
The trim has everything to do with it. White Dove is not a stark white; it's in fact a soft white. But it IS white. I have it on all of my trim. The room above reversed the usual way of painting and painted the trim what most would use to paint the walls, and the walls what most would use to paint the trim. This was along the lines of my suggesting you paint the ceiling a light tan or cream and the walls a creamy white. If you painted your walls white, I think you'd have to paint the trim a deeper color, like in the pic above. This was how they did it in Colonial days: painted the woodwork and kept the walls white. I think, though, that if you were to paint your walls white, you'd have to paint your ceiling as well, since you have no crown molding. |
Thanks, Tibbrix. Even though that's not the answer I wanted to hear! I don't think I can get there on the tan ceiling. A bit too timid for that! |
Take a look at the first color on the color card I attached. It's lovely in bright sunlight. Then close out that strip and look at the color behind it. It's another wonderful tone for your room. I have earthy colors and have used both of those successfully. |
Here is a link that might be useful: choices
Totally get your timidity; not sure you should give in to it. Why not try some Photoshopping (free: colorjive.com) and consulting with a color specialist? |
This post was edited by Tibbrix on Sun, Jul 27, 14 at 10:29
Thanks, yayagal! I'm going to look at those strips. Tibbrix, I have been using colorjive, but it's hard to tell for sure on my monitor. And I have actually called a few color consultants, but in our pricey area, the highly-rated ones have high minimum fees that I can't wrap my head around just to pick one color (even though it's a pretty important color given the amount of wall space). That said, I have brought the Cream Fleece strip home along with a bunch of others mentioned here. It looks really promising, so I'll be getting the sample paint. Thanks for bringing that color to my attention. |
- Posted by boopadaboo (My Page) on Fri, Aug 8, 14 at 20:24
Sas95 would you mind telling me what one lighter is on the cream fleece paint strip? What color did you pick? I am having a tough time making a decision. . |
One down from Cream Fleece is Winter Wheat. Which is pretty, but quite yellowish. The Cream Fleece was not creamy in my room, and looked nothing like the gorgeous picture Tibbrix posted. It was a full-on medium tan. I ended up using Dove Wing. It's an warm off white with a very subtle hint of gray. Though at times in the day it is a creamy beige in my room. I'm very happy with it, though it's the last thing I expected to use when I started looking at colors. |
sas….any pics? so glad you found a color you like! |
I have discovered that it's next to impossible to get an accurate picture of a white/off white wall, but this was the best I could do. In person it looks warm and pretty in all types of light, and I am thrilled not to have the neon yellow anymore. |
- Posted by boopadaboo (My Page) on Sun, Aug 10, 14 at 11:45
Thanks for sharing! it is really hard. And monitors make it even more difficult. Colors I like on my ipad look totally different on my computer. |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
BRAZIL/ECON - 2nd UPDATE:Brazil Oct Dollar Inflows Raise Talk Of Intervention
Released on 2013-02-13 00:00 GMT

BRASILIA (Dow Jones)--Foreign currency continued to pour into Brazil in
October, further stoking concerns that the Brazilian currency will
continue to gain ground against the dollar, and raising speculation about
more government intervention.
A net $6.92 billion flowed into the country in October, well above the
average $1.9 billion seen in the first nine months of the year, as
investors dumped the damaged dollar and sought out Brazil's real, lured by
strong economic growth and high local interest rates. A total of $24
billion has flowed in so far this year, up from $22.86 billion in a
similar period in 2009.
"The supply of dollars locally remains much greater than demand, so
pressure for strengthening of the real is likely to continue unless the
government takes further actions," said Mario Paiva, trader at the BGC
Liquidez brokerage in Rio de Janeiro. More measures could be forthcoming
if the real approaches BRL1.65 per dollar, he said.
The monetary authority also reported that the banks in Brazil increased
their bets against the dollar in the futures market to $12.85 billion in
October, from $12.43 billion in September. Higher short dollar positions
usually mean investors expect the dollar to weaken down the line.
On Thursday, the real ended trading on the local BM&FBovespa exchange at
BRL1.6773 per dollar, nearly 1.4% stronger on the day. The real has gained
about 3% against the dollar since the beginning of the year, and is 12%
stronger than its weakest point this year, in May.
Last month, the government raised the financial operations tax, known as
the IOF, on foreign investments in some local financial assets to 6% from
2%, in an effort to slow heavy foreign portfolio investment. Other
measures that the government is believed to be considering include the use
of reverse swap options, which would reduce pressure on the real in the
futures market, and additional tax increases.
Investment into Brazil totaled $5.14 billion in October, well above an
average of $2.39 billion seen over the first nine months of this year,
while trade inflows totaled $1.78 billion.
Brazilian Finance Minister Guido Mantega said the steps the government has
already taken had prevented the strong inflows from taking too much effect
on the currency, but said Wednesday's decision by the U.S. Federal Reserve
to inject another $600 billion into the U.S. economy through bond
purchases would have a detrimental effect for Brazil.
"We're not seeing a strengthening of the real, because of measures that we
have taken," said Mantega. "But it's a problem that could be aggravated as
long as the U.S. persists in its policies."
Mantega is scheduled to travel with Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula
da Silva to the meeting of the Group of 20 heads of state in Seoul next
week to discuss a resolution to what the minister has called global
"currency wars."
The appreciation of the currency has caused concerns among Brazilian
industry leaders and exporters, who argue the strong local currency is
encouraging imports and undermining the competitiveness of Brazilian goods
Currency traders such as Paiva, meanwhile, point out that investors will
likely remain attracted to Brazilian markets as long as the country
maintains elevated interest rates. Brazil's central bank has set the
country's reference Selic interest rate at 10.75% as part of its policy to
combat accelerating inflation.
"The U.S. Treasury continues to issue dollars and banks take the money and
come here seeking higher returns," he said.
Meanwhile, the central bank reported it bought $7.6 billion on the spot
currency market in October, pushing the country's foreign currency
reserves up to a record $285.2 billion.

Another great vinyl reissue,
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [VINYL] (Vinyl)
Having already bought and really enjoyed the Dark Side vinyl reissue, I thought a new copy of Wish Your Were Here was worth acquiring. Once again this is the 2011 digital remaster transferred onto vinyl, a somewhat controversial approach given some of the reviews here but I expect that dredging out the original tapes to create a new analogue pressing would have meant too much time and expense for what is after all a niche market. Therefore I expected that I could live with a possible lack of sonic integrity in exchange for obtaining a clean press and new packaging for under �20.
So what does this release have to offer? I have a previous vinyl edition (I must check the matrix numbers one day) so I do know what WYWH looks and sounds like. As for this version though, first the packaging. It's nice to have the outer-lining, stickers and postcard as well as a cool new poster. The colours on the cover are beautifully rendered on this edition and the photos are pin sharp. As others have pointed out though, the inner sleeve is too tight as is the spindle hole on the vinyl. As for the sound, would I be able to tell the difference in a blind listening between my analogue and digital editions? Well to be honest I couldn't be bothered to take part in some faux Pepsi Challenge exercise just to prove what a terrible decision the record company had made by going digital. Instead I put the record on, listened to the music and it sounded great - no noise, no rumble, just fantastic music. So there you have it. If the thought of digitally corrupted audio drives you insane, then avoid, otherwise there's a lot worse things to spend your �20 on.

Raving & Drooling,
By Puffany (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Experience Edition] (Audio CD)
I already give the original album 5 stars and it's been reviewed a zillion times. The interest here is in the 2nd disc. After hearing a few bootlegs from the Wish You Were Here tour over the years, I'm already familiar with the 2 tracks `Raving & Drooling' & `You've Got To Be Crazy', which were renamed when they finally appeared on the Animals album released in 1977. To me, the intensity and energy of those tracks performed live on the WYWH tour were the highlights of that tour. This live recording of Shine, Raving & Crazy is amazing. The performances are top-notch and the audio is so clean and fresh to the ears - you can't beat this for a live 1974 recording. I wasn't sure of what to expect because of some live discs I've heard included in Deluxe albums released by other artists that were hardly better than an average bootleg. This will blow you away - turn it up!!
Wine Glasses - can't tell you much about it except that it doesn't offend the ears. The alternate versions of Have a Cigar & Wish You Were Here are of real interest for any hardcore fan. Roger & the boys supply the vocals on this version of Have a Cigar. Waters didn't think his vocals were right for this track at the time. Roy Harper happened to be recording an album at the same studios at the time so Floyd asked him for his assistance for the original album version. The actual structure of Wish You Were Here is different, let alone a different lead at the start from Gilmour. Add to that the violin solo played by French jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli up high in the mix as a lead instrument and you have something very different from the familiar version. Pros and Cons of disc 2: Pros: the whole of disc 2 is what a lot of us fans have prayed for. Cons: not enough live material. It would've been awesome to have the whole Wembley gig, warts and all. Excellent release.

This review is from: Wish You Were Here [VINYL] (Vinyl)
Because of problems with the US release of DSOTM vinyl I ordered this from UK. It was worth the wait. This sounds every bit as stunning as the first day I heard it some 36 years ago. The bass might be a bit better and the high end might be a bit sharper but this is as perfect as I could expect.No clicks,no warp, no problems. The center hole was a tad small but a few times on and off the Thorens will fix that.
The packaging is okay but I would have prefered a nice innersleve instead of dropping the disk into the cardboard sleeve. It's also a bugger too get it our of the cardboard but I'll just put it in a niceer sleeve and not back into the cardboard. maybe a gatefold cover would have prevented the crowding.

One of the most beautiful rock albums ever.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wish You Were Here (Audio CD)
Wish You Were Here really has to be listened to all the way through from start to finish in one sitting. Any other way just doesn't do it justice. David Gilmour's opening guitar notes on Shine On You Crazy Diamond ring out like cathedral bells and this was the inspiration for Roger Waters' haunting lyrical tribute to lost band member Syd Barrett. Welcome to the Machine is a gutsy attack on the recording industry and has to be heard just for the clarity of the stereo acoustic guitars ringing out over the swooshing synthesizers and rolling tympanies. Have A Cigar features Roy Harper on vocals and funky guitars and continues the disillusioned rock star theme. The absolute classic Wish You Were Here follows, with one of the best openings of any rock song ever produced. Shine On You Crazy Diamond returns to conclude the album. If there is a better album from this era, I'd like to know what it is. The packaging of this album (designed by long-time Pink Floyd cohort, Storm Thorgerson) is as equally as impressive as the music itself and likewise deserves to be studied at length. Although released in 1975, this album has not aged or become dated with the passing of time at all. Buy it.

Classic Album, Disappointing Box,
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Immersion Edition] (Audio CD)
There is no question that Wish You Were Here is a 5 star album, but this Immersion box set is over priced and a disappointment.
Firstly, at the time of writing, it costs the same as the Dark Side Of The Moon Immersion box, �84.99, but contains one less disc. At least the Dark Side box contained an extra CD of demos and alternate mixes, which made it a little more desirable. Discs 1 & 2, the remastered original album and bonus tracks, can be bought for �12.93 as part of the Experience edition. For your extra �70+, you get 2 DVDs and a Blu Ray disc, replicating the DVD contents. Therefore, if you have a Blu Ray player, the DVDs are redundant. There is no doubt, however, that this is where the holy grail is contained, with the release of the long awaited 5.1 mix of the album, in addition to the original 1975 Quadrophonic mix and concert screen films. As with the Dark Side set, the rest of the box is filled with 'collectibles', most rather pointless and of 'cheap' quality. The two photo books are flimsy and lack much content, the scarf and marbles are pointless, & the print, collector's cards, replica ticket and backstage pass are interesting to look at once, but you won't need to return to them again. EMI could have left all these out and cut the price. If you have an SACD player, I would recommend buying the SACD instead, which contains the 2011 remaster and 5.1 mix. Although it has to be imported, it is available from European online sites for around �30, including shipping. That way, you can still own the 5.1 mix and save yourself �50 odd quid.

Wish you had it,
By Smitty Werbenjaegermanjensen (real name) (Thread rehab facility 37) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Experience Edition] (Audio CD)
Another sonic feast from the remastering session undertaken by James Guthrie and Joel Plante at Das Boot Recording. This album has been improved significantly, as have the rest by this remastering, better stereo separation, as can be heard at the start of Shine On, the warbling sounds and the keyboards are so well defined in the stereo image that it possible to hear that each note comes from a different place. Everything sounds so much better and realistic when compared to the previous issues, cleaner, clearer, less obviously digital(an oxymoron if ever), better bass, again for the bass and also the keyboards, easier to understand singing, better harmonic content and so on.......
The bonus cd is by turns wonderful and yet a reminder of what could have been. The live 74 gig stuff is outstanding in sound quality and makes the missing Echoes all the more frustrating, why was it left out? Raving and Youv'e Got To Be could have gone onto an Animals bonus cd and Echoes thrown on here, or onto another bonus cd for Meddle. Anyway, these are all fine tracks. Wine Glasses is superb, I loved it, and now know where the intro for Shine On came from. The vocals on the alternative Have a Cigar are first class, can't see why they got Roy Harper in for that one. The Stephane Grapelli violin playing adds a really powerful emotional layer to Wish You Were Here that surprised me, again superb stuff. Overall a magnificent addition to any Floyd fans collection. Highly recommended. edit - it has struck me going back through this album and the Animals album just how much Rick Wright contributed to the Floyd sound. I would put this and Animals up as testament to the skill and musicianmanship of Rick as being second to none for getting a mood across. Floyd are often remembered for David Gilmours scorching guitarwork and Roger Waters acerbic lyrics, so I think it is only fair to point out the superb keyboard playing on this and Animals to redress this imbalance. Nicks drumming comes across a lot better on all of these remasters, while I am praising the band.

Wish You Were Here Shines On!,
By DJ Control (Australia) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Wish You Were Here: 35th Anniversary Edition (Audio CD)
This review is about the Super Audio CD edition of this album "Wish You Were Here: 35th Anniversary Edition".
I was lucky enough to get a copy of this limited edition SA-CD via a Japanese pre-order back in November 2011 and I'm glad I did. It's a testament to the incredible work that James Guthrie and his collaborators have done remastering and remixing this landmark Pink Floyd album. There are a couple of different ways to purchase the new masters. There's the Wish You Were Here [VINYL] and the single cd "Wish You Were Here [Discovery Edition]" which contain just the original album. There's the double cd "Wish You Were Here Experience Edition",the ridiculously expensive box set "Wish You Were Here Immersion Edition" and of course,the SA-CD. All I was really interested in was the 5.1 mix or the original Quad mix and almost shelled out the money for the box set. I'm glad,after reading all the bad reviews for the box set,I decided the SA-CD was the best option. Firstly the new stereo master which sounds much clearer than it's previous pressing back in 1994 with nice separation and rich bass tones. No doubt the advantage of SA-CD playback. But the real delight here is the 5.1 surround mix,originally prepared back in 2003 for release by EMI but shelved when they,like all of the major record labels,abandoned the SA-CD format. I thought I knew every note of this album as it's always been my favourite Floyd release. The surround mix allows you to hear such amazing detail that maybe until now,has only been heard by a select few who have the original Quad mix done by Alan Parsons. I could go on writing about all the new aural experiences this 5.1 mix allows you to pick out with the additional separation of surround sound but that would spoil it for potential listeners. The transition between "Have A Cigar" and the title track is awesome,that's all I'll say. I hope everyone that was wanting a copy of this album on Super Audio got one on pre order (you'll be glad you did) and not too many third party sellers have picked up multiple copies for future selling at extortionate prices (as most SA-CD titles are currently being sold). It's the best SA-CD of rock music I've heard for many years. Now all we need is "The Wall" on Super Audio,wouldn't that sound great in 5.1! "Remember When You Were Young...???"

This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Experience Edition] (Audio CD)
Well what a day,you settle down to listen to this and Rush's Timeline 2011 cd pops thru the letterbox,god its great lovin' music.Like its predecesor DSOTM,this release is a 2 disc affair,complete with very poor flimsy packaging as per most of these reissues,the booklet lovingly stuck firmly in its jacket,just as well there's nothing of note contained as you wont take it out often,however as i said in DSOTM's review its the music that matters most of all,so....
Disc 1 the original album remastered,now this is my all time favourite Floyd disc so i was anxious as to how it would sound,i stand by my belief that DSOTM didnt sound that much different,this however i feel HAS been improved,'Shine On.. pts 1 & 2 both shimmer from the speakers,while 'Welcome to the Machine' reminds me more and more of Hawkwind,while the title track is just a beautiful piece in anyones collection and 'Have a Cigar' has its irresistible strut enhanced,the disc ,IMHO,sounds clearer with a bounce to the bass.It was class in '75 and its still class now,wonderful stuff. Disc 2 opens with 50 plus min's of Floyd live, 20 minutes of 'Shine On...' plus 2 tracks that would end up on ANIMALS,i've never heard these nor any of the other unreleased tracks,so this was my main reason for purchase,the live tracks are superb,i just worry they'll release the wembley gig with 'Echoes as a bonus track!!. The studio tracks are pretty good,an alternate, longer version of 'Have a Cigar',fine with me,its my favourite track on the original disc,while the Stefan Grappelli violin piece in 'Wish you were here' made the hairs on my neck stand up,leaving 'Wine Glasses' as a throwaway instrumental,the like of which hawkwind made a career out of,brilliant bonus tracks for the most part,well worth the purchase price. You can buy with confidence this is a fantastic release(packaging not withstanding)

Pink Floyd Cardboard Cases !,
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Discovery Edition] (Audio CD)
Hi, I am disappointed in all these so called saving the environment cardboard cases that have taken over the plastic jewel CD cases, nowadays. They are so awkward to actually get your CD's out of, the discs are so tightly packed in them that you end up putting your fingers over the discs to try & get them out & end up marking the disc. I have given up & ended up ripping the cardboard case apart & putting the CD in a good old plastic jewel case. So ditch these rubbish cardboard cases & stick to plastic CD jewel cases.
A review of The Pink Floyd remastered CD's they are Great, much clearer to hear all the little details in the music.

The version-of-choice of Floyd's best album?,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Wish You Were Here [Experience Edition] (Audio CD)
If you don't yet have a CD of (probably) Floyd's finest-ever album in your music library, this November 2011-released 2-disk set of WYWH is the one to go for.
The first disk is a James Guthrie re-master of the classic WYWH album as released in September 1975, from the original recording tapes. Believe it or not, Guthrie has improved the sound: it's deeper, richer and more spine-tingling than the epic original vinyl release. The sound is clean, each instrument is clearly defined with the bass and percussion in particular sounding like they're right there in the room with you. The second disk contains some live material from the 1975 WYWH tour featuring numbers excluded from the original album release - `Raving and Drooling,' `You've Got to be Crazy' and `Wine Glasses' which were Floyd stage-standards at the time - plus a longer, stretched-out live-on-stage version of `Shine On'. Also featured are a couple of alternative studio recordings of tracks from the original album. The highlight for most fans is likely to be a masterful version of WYWH featuring Stephane Grappelli on violin, which gives the classic piece a quite different character but is in every way superb, possibly (personal choice here) superior even to the original variant chosen for the 1975 album release. There's also an alternative version of `Have a Cigar'. The cardboard-surround sleeve of the 2011 release contains a 3-part folding CD case with the 2x CDs and a small booklet with the all song lyrics. In summary: excellent; the one to buy. |

Jelly Rolls question
Is Jelly Rolls full and fun every night, or mostly on Friday & Saturday?
While it's more popular on Friday and Saturdays, the weeknights offer a great experience as well. If I recall correctly, cast member night is Thursday, so it can get pretty busy then too.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Scout to GM Kevin Towers: 'Corbin may be just a tick below Kershaw'
When Patrick Corbin entered camp this spring, the 23-year-old wasn't even sure he'd have a job with the Arizona Diamondbacks to start the season.
Flash forward nearly a quarter of the way through the 2013 campaign, and Corbin's pitched like the ace of the D-backs' staff (6-0 record with 1.52 ERA) and arguably put together a start that rivals Randy Johnson (2000) and Brandon Webb (2008).
Corbin has gone at least seven innings in each of his eight starts, while allowing two earned runs or less. Arizona is also 8-0 in those starts.
"He's one of those guys when he takes the mound, you know you've got a chance to win each and every time," D-backs general manager Kevin Towers told Arizona Sports Doug & Wolf Wednesday. "As tough as the 10-1 loss was (against the Braves Monday), we all talked about it internally and said we got the right guy going on the mound tomorrow. He's going to pitch inside, he's going to give them some very uncomfortable at-bats."
Corbin was indeed the guy the D-backs needed to snap their three-game losing streak. In Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Atlanta, the left-hander battled command issues (five walks), but managed to induce three double-play balls en route to seven scoreless innings.
It's a little early to be talking about the starting nod for the National League All-Star team, but Towers said he received a rather high compliment regarding Corbin while with the team in Los Angeles last week.
"Well, being left-handed with the stuff he has is going to make him good automatically," said Towers. "But I had a veteran scout -- that I respect greatly -- come up to me the other day in L.A. and say, 'This guy may be just a tick below Kershaw.'
"When you start comparing a young pitcher like Patrick Corbin to Clayton Kershaw -- and by a veteran scout who has seen both pitchers -- it leads me to believe that as long as we can knock on wood and keep him healthy, good things are on the horizon for this kid. They already are, and I think it could get even better."
That's definitely not bad company to be compared to.
Kershaw, 25, has pitched in parts of six seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers and has a career 65-39 record. He also won the 2011 Cy Young Award and is a two-time All-Star.

Japan Airlines (JAL) today released details about the international and domestic routes it will suspend.
On 7 December it will suspend indefinitely its Osaka Kansai-Hangzhou, Tokyo Narita-Hangzhou, Tokyo Narita-Qingdao and Tokyo Narita-Xiamen services, says JAL. It will also close its Hangzhou, Qingdao and Xiamen offices.
On 12 January it will suspend indefinitely its Osaka Kansai-Busan and Osaka Kansai-Hanoi, and on 17 January it will suspend indefinitely its Singapore-Kuala Lumpur services. On 18 January it will suspend indefinitely its Vancouver-Mexico City services, and the Mexico City office will also close, it adds.
These cutbacks are to passenger services, but the dedicated freighter service from Tokyo Narita to Qingdao will be suspended indefinitely starting 7 December.
In terms of capacity reduction, the airline says it is switching to smaller aircraft on some routes and that the frequency of its Tokyo Narita-London Heathrow service is halving to seven flights per week from 14 with effect from 7 December.
On 7 December it will also reduce its Tokyo Narita-Taipei service to 21 flights per week from 28.
The carrier will in addition suspend service on eight domestic routes.
The cuts will be made in the February-June period and will be to the Nagoya-Kumamoto, Tokyo Narita-Kobe, Nagoya-Iwate Hanamaki, Nagoya-Kushiro, Kiakyushu-Okinawa, Kobe-Sapporo, Kobe-Okinawa and Kobe-Ishigaki routes.
JAL has been losing money and is in talks with the government for a bail-out.
"With a focus on improving profitability and reducing costs, a bold review of under-performing routes was conducted," it says.

The Lake George Land Conservancy (LGLC) has issued a report to the press outlining its work in 2014 and looking forward to its plans for 2015. In tallying their efforts, LGLC has found that over the last nine months they have protected 462 acres of Lake George watershed lands through partnerships, purchases, donations and conservation easements and are currently working on plans to protect over 750 acres in the near future.
Land conservation projects have been completed in five towns around Lake George, including Bolton, Hague, Putnam, Fort Ann, and the Town of Lake George. The projects protect forests, wetlands, rocky slopes and ridges, and streams, as well as wildlife habitat.
LGLC also achieved land trust accreditation in August from the Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance. The organization is also preparing for a change in leadership. Executive Director Nancy Williams is expected to retire this fall, and LGLC's Board of Directors hope to have a new executive director in place by January of 2015. » Continue Reading.

I want to get rid of the oak grain as much as possible but want something easy to use. Thanks in advance! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hey Jersey! Many companies have "Grain-fillers", and most are pretty easy. FPE's Brushing-Putty and Swedish-Putty are fantastic though! Faron |
I primed and painted some, and the grain was filled with just the primer and paint. Good quality paint with 100% acrylic resin binder and high solids content. If the grain were extremely deep, I would just get a floor grain filler like Famowood. |
