As theater, "Tommy" is dumb. As packaging, it's great. And since our theater has less and less to do with theater and more and more to do with packaging, maybe "Tommy" is a breakthrough.
At this point, I should reveal that until I put on the CD Monday night, I was probably the only living American who was unacquainted with "Tommy." I knew what it was about, but I had not seen the movie. (Though I still have not outgrown my love for Disney, I outgrew Ken Russell early on - hence I skipped his version of "Tommy.")
My major reaction was astonishment that this rather harmless score was, indeed, the epochal "Tommy" - the work a generation invested with profundity, the work that, in a controversial one-night stand in 1970, had brought rock to the Metropolitan Opera.
To ears accustomed to classical musical theater, "Tommy" is, I'm afraid, hard to take seriously.
Its lyrics are primitive, its music sometimes sweet, invariably repetitive. Its beat is, of course, relentless.
The best thing about it seems to be the harmonics in the ensemble numbers. (In certain ways "Tommy" was a revelation. Knowing that this, rather than, say, "Guys and Dolls," is the inspiration for today's composers, I have a new appreciation for "Les Miz" and "Cats.")
Older readers may remember a time when musical theater insisted upon character, plot and something called dramatic irony. All these things, of course, are now passe. So "Tommy" is perfectly acceptable as a contemporary musical.
Moreover, when you revive the old shows you have to find singers who can act, which, judging by the results, must be incerasingly difficult. With a show like "Tommy," that's really not necessary, since the characters are pretty much stick figures and thus not hard to play.
Director Des McAnuff and choreographer Wayne Cilento have given the actors so much movement that at times they seem like robots going through their precisely ordained paces. As it happens, Michael Cerveris, who plays Tommy as an adult; Marcia Mitzman, who plays his mother, and Jonathan Dokuchitz, who plays his father, are all good actors, which I know from having seen them do other work. What they do here is so rigidly structured it never seems human.
Even making themselves intelligible seems unnecessary. The amplification makes it very hard to hear the lyrics, but I was probably the only person in the audience who didn't already know them by heart.
The actors, of course, are incidental to the constantly changing visuals around them. At one point, the whole interior of the St. James is full of projections and flashing lights to make it seem as though we are right inside Tommy's pinball machine. The audience applauded wildly, as they had earlier, when Tommy did a double somersault in the air, and when his Uncle Ernie downed a huge mug of beer and gave forth a gigantic belch.
Visually, "Tommy" is always fun. Meaning does not play a great role in it, but meaning, like plot and character, is old hat. The contents may be vodka ordinaire; the bottle is Absolut.
What goes around comes around - or so they say - and The Who's "Tommy," billed in 1969 as the "first rock opera," has certainly been around.
But, fine-tuned to a farethewell in a brand and glitzily new shape by Des McAnuff, "The Who's Tommy" came around to the St. James Theater last night in blazing triumph, and Broadway - or so they might one day say - will never be the same again.
This second coming of a rock legend is piquantly the first time genuine hard-core rock has been on Broadway - other shows have tried, but here at last is the real turtle soup, not the mock.
The story, strengthened by a revised book by the original composer and lyricist Pet Townshend and the show's director, McAnuff, tells of a kid who survives the London blitz only to witness a murder which traumatizes him, leaving him deaf, dumb and blind, stranded in zombieland, abused and maligned.
He proves to be a "pinball wizard" and on his eventual recovery becomes idolized, and the whole picture can, if you like, be interpreted as a psychedelic parable of pop.
Tommy, as the ultimate rock star, finding himself through breaking a mirror (rather than the guitars, manically destroyed by Townshend in his heydey), inviting the world to his door (in a scene even given a Sgt. Pepper backdrop!) before finding a simpler peace, is virtually a paradigm of the Sixties.
And, of course, the music, even the story, nowadays - despite its Broadway novelty, talk about having it both ways! - is also a lustrously nostalgic helter-skelter for middle-aged baby boomers.
Still, make no mistake, there is no middle aged spread to McAnuff's production, which is as taut and time-breaking as the day after tomorrow.
What started as a 10-minute filler on a Who album, went through concert, opera-house, ballet and movie versions, has now swept home to roost as a high-tech show-biz marvel, full of flight and flying, with John Arnone's chic, diagrammatic settings, Wendall K. Harrington's symbolized back-projections, banks of TV monitors, hand-held cameras, and a fantastic orchestration by Steve Margoshes that thrums and startles with the heart of its guitar beat.
Listen to the sensational virtuosity of the rock sound. Here is its ability to take a bare-bones story (cleverly fleshed out here by having three Tommys - at different ages - playing out his clinical saga in dramatic counterpoint) and give it a savagely emotional punch and plunge outside the cocktail-lounge range of traditional Broadway show music.
This is the musical breakthrough. And an irony. For a score once thought downscale rock, hanging round The Who's neck like a haunting albatross, has been transmogrified into Broadway's pinball wizard, opening a 25-year-old gateway to a potentially new world.
Using techniques often as old as rock concerts, McAnuff has staged the piece dazzlingly - helped everywhere by Wayne Cilento's resourceful choreography, which even makes a movement motif from the trademarked Daltry/Townshend air-leaps.
Although the performance is fundamentally a wonderful ensemble singing like angels while acting like cartoons, note must be taken of Marcia Mitzman as the Mother, Paul Kandel as the wicked and bibulous Uncle Ernie and, most of all, of Michael Cerveris' resonantly dazed and radiant Tommy.
Brilliant, bloody brilliant!
The Broadway musical has never been the same since rock-and-roll stole its audience and threw it into an identity crisis. For three decades, from the moment "Meet the Beatles" usurped the supremacy of such Broadway pop as "Hello, Dolly!," the commercial theater has desperately tried to win back the Young (without alienating their elders) by watering down rock music, simulating rock music and ripping off rock music. A result has been a few scattered hits over the years, typified by "Hair" and "Jesus Christ, Superstar," most of which have tamed the rock-and-roll revolution rather than spread it throughout Times Square.
Until now.
"Tommy," the stunning new stage adaptation of the 1969 rock opera by the British group the Who, is at long last the authentic rock musical that has eluded Broadway for two generations. A collaboration of its original principal author, Pete Townshend, and the director, Des McAnuff, this show is not merely an entertainment juggernaut, riding at full tilt on the visual and musical highs of its legendary pinball iconography and irresistible tunes, but also a surprisingly moving resuscitation of the disturbing passions that made "Tommy" an emblem of its era. In the apocalyptic year of 1969, "Tommy" was the unwitting background music for the revelation of the My Lai massacre, the Chicago Seven trial, the Charles Manson murders. Those cataclysmic associations still reverberate within the piece, there to be tapped for the Who's generation, even as the show at the St. James is so theatrically fresh and emotionally raw that newcomers to "Tommy" will think it was born yesterday.
In a way, it was. Though the voices and pit band of this "Tommy" faithfully reproduce the 1969 double album, adding merely one song ("I Believe My Own Eyes"), a few snippets of dialogue and some extended passages of underscoring, the production bears no resemblance to the Who's own concert performances of the opera (which culminated in an appearance at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1970) or to Ken Russell's pious, gag-infested 1975 film adaptation. Instead of merely performing the songs or exploiting them as cues for general riffs of dance and psychedelia, the evening's creators, who also include the choreographer Wayne Cilento and some extraordinary multi-media artists led by the brilliant set designer John Arnone, use their singing actors to flesh out the drama of "Tommy." Better still, they excavate the fable's meaning until finally the opera's revised conclusion spreads catharsis like wildfire through the cheering house.
Both the story and its point are as simple as "Peter Pan" (with which "Tommy" shares its London setting and some flying stunts by Foy). The show's eponymous hero is a boy who is stricken deaf, dumb and blind at the age of 4 after watching his father return from a World War II prisoners' camp to shoot his mother's lover. Tommy's only form of communication proves to be his latent wizardry at pinballs, a talent that soon turns him into a media sensation. As played by Michael Cerveris with the sleek white outfit, dark shades and narcissistic attitude of a rock star, the grown-up Tommy is nearly every modern child's revenge fantasy come true: the untouchable icon who gets the uncritical adulation from roaring crowds that his despised parents never gave him at home.
In this telling, Tommy is often played simultaneously by two child actors (representing him at ages 4 and 10) in addition to Mr. Cerveris. The isolated young Tommy's totemic, recurring cry of yearning -- "See me, feel me, touch me, heal me" -- flows repeatedly between inner child and grown man, giving piercing voice to the eternal childhood psychic aches of loneliness and lovelessness. It is this primal theme, expressed with devastating simplicity in Mr. Townshend's score and lyrics, that has made "Tommy" timeless, outlasting the Who itself (which disbanded in 1982). Yet it is the evil of the authority figures the hero must overcome -- a distant father (Jonathan Dokuchitz), a dismissive mother (Marcia Mitzman), a sexually abusive Uncle Ernie (Paul Kandel) and various fascistic thugs -- that also makes "Tommy" a poster-simple political statement reflecting the stark rage of the Vietnam era.
As staged by Mr. McAnuff, that anger is present but the story is kept firmly rooted in its own time, from the 40's to the early 60's. The slide projections that drive the production design at first recreate in black-and-white the London of the blitz, then spill into the vibrant Pop Art imagery of pinball machines, early Carnaby Street and Andy Warhol paintings before returning to black-and-white for televised crowd images that recall the early British rock explosion as witnessed on "The Ed Sullivan Show." Mr. Cilento's compact dances similarly advance from wartime jitterbugging to the 50's sock-hopping of early rock-and-roll movies to evocations of the mod antics of "A Hard Day's Night" and its imitators in the 60's.
But the highly sophisticated theatrical style of this "Tommy," which coalesces as a continuous wave of song, scenes, kaleidoscopic design and dance, owes everything to musical-theater innovations unknown until the mid-1970's. Mr. McAnuff, whose past Broadway works include the relatively stodgy "Big River" and "A Walk in the Woods," shrewdly turns to examples set by such directors as Harold Prince, Michael Bennett and Robert Wilson. Here and there are echoes of the mock-documentary superstar sequences of "Evita" and "Dreamgirls," in which abstract scaffolding and bridges suggest a show-biz firmament and a surging mob. As in those cinematic Prince and Bennett shows, the entire company becomes an undulating organism that defines the stage space and is always on the fly.
From Mr. Wilson, whose theater experiments have sometimes involved autistic boys eerily resembling the fictive Tommy, Mr. McAnuff and his designers take the notion of threading a few repeated images abstractly through the action: floating chairs, mirrors, the Union Jack, airplane propellers and disembodied Man Ray eyes, not to mention doors and windows reminiscent of 60's rock-album cover art and the hallucinogenic mythology such art canonized. (Sometimes the new incidental scoring takes some hints from Mr. Wilson's musical collaborator, Philip Glass.) These dreamy visual touchstones are constantly reshuffled and distorted throughout "Tommy" for subliminal effect, reaching their apotheosis in an inevitable (and superbly executed) set piece in which the entire theater becomes a gyrating pinball machine celebrating the rebellious hero's "amazing journey" to new-found freedom.
Even in that blowout sequence, "Tommy" eschews the heavy visual spectacle of recent West End rock operas (and Broadway musicals) to keep its effects lithe and to the point. Often the most evocative sequences are spare and intimate: a candlelit Christmas dinner haunted by the ghosts of family horrors past, an abandoned urban lot in which the Acid Queen (Cheryl Freeman, paying persuasive vocal homage to Tina Turner) is more a feral junkie than a phantasmagoric gypsy. Dominating the stage instead of being usurped by hardware, the performers can shine as well, from the dazzling Mr. Cerveris, who grows from melancholy youth to strutting pop belter, to Ms. Mitzman's powerfully sung mother, Mr. Kandel's sinister Uncle Ernie and the tireless ensemble, its youngest members included.
When the time comes for the entire company to advance on the audience to sing the soaring final incantation -- "Listening to you I get the music/ Gazing at you I get the heat" -- "Tommy" has done what rock-and-roll can do but almost never does in the theater: reawaken an audience's adolescent feelings of rebellion and allow them open-throated release. But reflecting the passage of time and Mr. Townshend's own mature age of 47, this version takes a brave step further, concluding with a powerful tableau of reconciliation that lifts an audience of the 1990's out of its seats.
"Hope I die before I get old," sang the Who in "My Generation," its early hit single. A quarter-century or so later, Mr. Townshend hasn't got old so much as grown up, into a deeper view of humanity unthinkable in the late 1960's. Far from being another of Broadway's excursions into nostalgia, "Tommy" is the first musical in years to feel completely alive in its own moment. No wonder that for two hours it makes the world seem young.
"The Who's Tommy" is the latest musical work to be dusted off and receive a rousing '90s tuneup. Like last year's "Guys and Dolls" and "Crazy for You," it's going to pack them in for a long time. Unlike those shows, however, this one should also tap the vast younger audience Broadway lusts after, the one that won't care a fig about the naysayers the musical undoubtedly will spawn.
Seeing -- not to mention hearing, feeling and touching -- is believing: "Tommy" is the best rock 'n' roll show -- sorry, opera -- ever produced on Broadway.
It's also a triumph of stagecraft, a show whose only peers in delivering one eye-popping scene after another are "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Miss Saigon."
When, for one wisely fleeting moment, designer John Arnone transforms the entire St. James Theater into a spinning, flashing, ringing pinball machine, you know the wizards offstage have every bit as much prowess as the one on.
Key among them are director Des McAnuff and "Tommy's" primary librettist, Pete Townshend. McAnuff's roots are in rock 'n' roll theater ("Death of von Richtofen as Witnessed from the Earth").
He brought Townshend to the La Jolla Playhouse last year to collaborate on a refined book for the 1969 Who rocker about a boy, struck deaf, dumb and blind when his war-hero father is murdered by his mother's lover, who goes on to become a pinball prodigy.
Townshend and McAnuff have changed key elements, updating the story to World War II and having the father kill the lover. Significantly, Tommy's rise to fame has been desanctified.
The show opens with a long expository sequence in which Captain Walker (Jonathan Dokuchitz) leaves his pregnant wife (Marcia Mitzman) for the war, is held prisoner and given up for dead and finally returns to walk in on 4-year-old Tommy (Crysta Macalush), mother and lover (Lee Morgan).
During the ensuing fight, Tommy stares into a mirror as his senses desert him and lighting designer Chris Parry drenches the whole thing in blood red.
The exposition is made vivid by Wendall K. Harrington's kinetic projections and Batwin+Robin's videos, as a wartime dance unfolds into a paratroopers' ballet, just the first of Wayne Cilento'smuscular, sexy, frequently funny dances.
A lot of gimmickry serves a story that critics dubbed pretentious 24 years ago, but which is simply banal: Finally regaining his senses, Tommy (Michael Cerveris) renounces his position.
There are plenty of other high points, though none as eerily effective as when Tommy is first revealed as the "Pinball Wizard."
The mop-topped Cerveris imbues Tommy with considerably more personality than the score ever really allows. There are also particularly effective performances from Mitzman as the mother, Paul Kandel as Tommy's abusive, alcoholic Uncle Ernie and Cheryl Freeman as a Gypsy healer.
Special tribute must be paid to Steve Canyon Kennedy, whose sound design is flawless; this is a loud show delivered mercifully distortion-free.
"Tommy" is a hugely entertaining show. Dwell too much on the plot or the message, and it all dissolves in an instant. But for sheer rock 'n' roll fun, it's hard to beat.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- The Augusta Sports Ice Center will be replaces with trampoline park that's scheduled to be finished by December 2014.
The park will feature more than 15,000 feet of trampolines, flying trapeze, a trampoline dodge-ball arena, dunk hoops and a ninja obstacle course, according to a release.
The Augusta Ice Sports Center was sold this summer due to money issues.
"The opportunity in Augusta is truly unique," owner Case Lawrence said.

Hi folks, We planted a row of hydrangeas 3 weeks ago. They all get about same sun (the ones on the left just a tad bit more), they get the same water (again, a little more for the ones on the left because they get a bit more sun), there are cedar trees at both ends. Within 10 days they looked like the photo attached: as you can see it looks like someone took a torch to the ones on the left and the effect tapers off at plant #3. They were all planted the same way in Cedar Grove Compost mixed with Dr. Earth's Organic Fertilizer. Is there something in the soil that might be causing this? Thanks for any insight/guesses you can provide. |

More than likely, the water is missing the original root ball. Stick a finger into to it to check. |
- Posted by napalm_beach (My Page) on Mon, Aug 4, 14 at 11:47
Yes, the root ball is moist (just checked it this morning). When it started browning out we began soaking the base of the plant. |
With the extreme sun and heat we've had in the NW this month, I would think it's probably just the wrong time to be planting anything, especially a shrub that doesn't do so well in heat and sun. I'd pull the survivors up, put them back in the pots and into the deep shade somewhere, keeping them well watered until the weather cools and the rains return. Then replant them. |

You were a little late watering the plants. "When they started to brown out", is the clue. By then, the damage was done. If you keep them watered they should be OK. Just don't let them dry out again. Mike |
Consider rigging temporary shade because I'm told this heat will continue. |

If needed, replacement plants put in next spring will quickly catch up to the others. |

It's hot! Temporary shade is a good idea, jean. I've been out on the Olympic Peninsula for the last three days and came today back to wilting established hydrangeas that I don't normally water. I'll take a look at them in the morning and see how they are doing. They're a long ways from a hose bib. Mike |

Beach umbrellas work well. I bought several at a Big Lots on the cheap (5 bucks each!) to help along some hostas that had been in the shade but now get a lot of sun due to a limbed up tree. Worked out pretty well and they look cute :) |

My mom's barely been at home lately. She keeps on going to work at her ceramic shop and leaving me with my younger siblings. This evening when we were eating dinner together as a family at our table (which we rarely ever do anymore) we were sitting beside each other and she kept on patting my shoulder and stuff like that, and she asked me questions about what I had done today and things like that. It was weird. She's never really given me that much attention at dinner, mostly because she knows she's not going to get any good answers to questions like "How was school today?"
It's driving me nuts! She's not talking to me about much of ANYTHING! Usually she isn't this quiet around me. It's like she's trying to avoid me on purpose!
I think this is because of my sexuality. When I've asked her what she really thinks about it, she gets all tense and says, "I'm fine with it, honey." But I don't believe her. Usually she's tried to be nice to me and get me involved with the family, but now she's just stopped. Maybe she's finally given up. But I think that's a lousy excuse.
My younger sister says that she doesn't see anything wrong and that I'm just imagining things. Should I believe her? I dunno. My gut tells me that my mom just isn't comfortable with this. I mean, my sister hasn't been around when I've asked Mom about it. How would she know?
Dang it, I wish she would TALK to me!! I guess I'm being a bit of a hypocrite. I should probably talk to her about it. But I'm scared of what she'll say...or what she might not say. I mean, seriously! What if she just says "I'm fine with it" again?? I swear, I'll go crazy and start drooling at the mouth if she does.
Argh, what the H*** do I DO?? My mom won't tell me what's going on inside her head, and I'm too afraid to ask her about it. What am I supposed to do?
Aren't parents the weirdest things ever?
I would call her on it. Ask her flat out and strongly, "What is going on?" then when she side steps do the whole, "No, don't give me that. I deserve enough respect to get a real answer."
But... i know things don't always work like that in reality. Good luck.
My 2 cents.

But beyond our projected five, I'm not really comfortable relying on anyone else for more than an occasional emergency spot start.
Let me see if I follow. Your concern is "what if" Adams never starts at LT. (Yes?) Here is a tiered hierarchy of "bust to starter." Please, tell me your level of concern.
1. Adams never pans out.
2. Adams can't play LT. After a year behind Starks, he switches to RT.
3. Max Starks starts in front of Adams for a year. Then, when ready, Adams starts at LT.
4. Max Starks starts in front of Adams for a month. Then, Adams takes over.
5. Adams starts at LT in September.
My level is around 4... and hoping for 5. My worst-case is 3, but could see 2. [Again, what is your predicted level? And, how can I assuage your concerns?]
Lastly, while it messes up my gameplan, in the event that it is indeed level 1, let's hope that the Steelers realize before the next draft, and select Barrett Jones at 32. [Note: I like Jones, but would prefer to "not" have to draft him.]

I am very fbrry that this Piece has not been copy'd at full Length in all our publick Papers, as the Prufftan Jtfanifefto was, aad.not a.little cont-ern'd too, that, iri-itead of being an Anfwer to Count Dohna%Declara-don, it is not a full Confutation of ^ryPara^^ in the faid Manifefto; But this we may Mf&j^aiks^B^ the firft Thing-the Court of Vienna had to do� belkg to anfwer fuch. Charges againft it as were read by the Pruf-Jian Minifter. Seeing your Paper is too much taken up with other [Matters, to indulge me in the Defign I had to take No-lice of every, material Point in the Court of Vienna's Anfwer, I muft confine myfelf to one Article, which fets in the cleareft Light the Moderation, rbe Drjinterefled-fiefs, the Patriotifm of. the Auftrian Minifters, and invincibly proves the rponfhons Ingratitude, the horrid. Degeneracy of theGermanick Body in general. ' In the Circular .Refcripr (fays the Anfcuerer) of the ' 18th of jaft Month (July) the Objection concerning ' the Electoral Bavarian Troops has been before anfwer?d' in a Manner no lefs convincing. The Agreement made at Lower Schonfelden ; our two Letters to the Committee of the Circular Dyet of Swabia \ the Warning and Requefts,therein contain'd > and laftly, our having' ib long fpared thofe Troops, which were entirely difpers'd, are undeniable Proofs of our moit fincere and icconcileable Temper. But fince the (aid Crown of France, and have been found upon the Territory ufurtfd by that Crown, to the Prejudice of the Em- * phre, which Territory they actually ende.ivcur'd to de-' fend against the Empire rTself, in Conjunc-' tion with the French Forces, and as Auxiliaries to * that Crown ; it'is really incomprehenfible, what is 4 meant .by the Addition which Count Dohna was after-4 wards obiig'd to make to the Declaration, &c. 4 At prefent the Empire is-no longer the Theatre of * War It cannot be pretended, even with the leaft 4 Colour, that the Queen's Endeavours to reconquer for 4 that B;dy Countries that were torn from it, are con-4 trary to its Dignity, Conftituribn, Security and Tran-4 quality^ Now, whereas the Queen has fo often de-' clared, and at'prefent repeats that Declaration in the ' moft folemn Manner, that fhe defires. not to aggrandize 4 herfdf, butvonlyan equitable Indemnification and Security 4 for the. future,i her Majefty's forefaid Endeavours 4 might in the mean time have tended to advance the ' wiib'd for Reconciliation with her Adverfary, and 4 undoubtedly may do fo ftill, if, contrary to Expecta-4 tion they are not interrupted by the Execution of fo ' menacing a Declaration,' i.'e. that made by Count Dohna. Then the Queen {hews how fhe went about to effect tiiis, which was propofing to the Emperor to unite with her againft France, and fo co-operate in promoting 'heir mutual Intereft: But, irfeems, nothing could be agreed to at Francrort,-4 but what would have depriv'd the Houie of -Auftria even of its Indemnification, and only, in & frnaH Degree, encreafed its future Security, ' together with the internal Tranquility of the Empire.' W hat could be more generous than this Way 6f Proceeding 1 After the Auftrian Dominions had been ra-vag'd by French Armies call'd into Germany by the Houfe of Bavaria, her,Hungarian Majefty defir'd nothing more than an Indemnification for what was paft, and iufficient Security againft the Jike Invafions for the future , to attain which, (he only wanted the Erfiperc r to renounce his inglorious and fatal Attachment to trance, and fide with her againft that Crown. But finding her Propofals flighted, and that the Head of the Empire continued fix'd in a Foreign Iniereft, fhe moft ge-~enujhf refolv'd to be a Proteihix and Nurfing-Mother to Germany: 4 There remain'd nothing for the Queen to 1 do (fays the Jrfa'erer),m order to the ftill obtaining a ' Reconciliationlb earneftly defir'd with her Adverfary, 1 but ro endeavour, without his Concurrence, to recover. ' what had been tarn from ihe Empire, and, befidos the 1 forefiiid Recbirciliation, to promote the Dignity, the ' future Secuiity^aitd internal and external Tranquility '-ofthe Empirey-together with the Advantage and Deli- st* fix tbaiyfoB: of the ifi-Infiant. 1 very of many States from theYoke of a foreign Power.' --An bonefl and glorious Undertaking indeed! but not practicable in this wicked and degenerate Age. If the tioufe'of Auftria fhould-totally ruin itfelf by having purfu'd fo laudable a Defign| what an indeliable Stain will be left on the German Nation 1 how will Pofterity ftand amaz'd at their Baefnefs and Ingratitude ! However, as this Anfwer does not give full Satisfaction to a curious and impartial Enquirer, it is to be hoped that the next Piece the Court of Vienna publifhes will effectually .remove any Scruples that may arife on fome fuch Queries or Obfervations as follow, which naturally occur to anyMan that weighs the Arguments on both Sidas in the Scale of Reafon. i. Whether it is not fit the World fhould be inforrn'd, how much the Court of Vienna expected, ox may ftiU'ex-. peft, as a p-oper Indemnification for what is paft *, and what it is fhe thinks a fujficient Security for the Time to come? z. Admitting that the Houfe of Bavaria has no varid Pretenfions to any Part of the Auftrian Succeflion, it cannot be denied that the prefent Emperor was as fairly elected as, perhaps, any" of his Predeceffors have been for thefe 200 Years paft: Confequently the Queen.of Hungary is his Vaffaly and, as fuch, ought not to undertake 10 make Conquefts abroad for tie Empire, without his Approbation orConcurrence. 5. If her Hungarian Majefty had conqu.r'd Alface, would ihe have given it to the Emperor, or held it in Trufl for the Empire, as its Guardian "5 or would fhe have kept it to herlelf, as the Indemnification fo often in-fifled on in all Overtures and Negotiations for an Accommodation with the Houfe of Bavaria ? . 4. Suppofing that the Emperor had abdicated, in.Ccn-fideration of getting his Hereditary Countries again, and that the Duke of Lorrain had canied'the next Election, but that the Houfe of Auftria had ftill been unable to indemnify herfelf at the Expence of France, for the Ceffion of Silefta and the Reftitution of Bavariamight not fome Pretext have been trump'd up for breaking the Treaty of Breilau.? Might not the Court of Vienna plead.Confirajnt for having broke through' the Pragma-tick Sanction in malcing that Ceffion, or elfe maintain that there was aitacit Agreement naade at the fame time to indemnify her for it ? And,, in fuch a Cafe, would England* as Guarantee .of the Treaty of Brefjaji^make T^M'4iaVe^iwn--*m�toy?d- in the Servicer'off th^f AVar'tTp^h^He to"mainiain his Piuf- fian Majefty in his new Acquifition ? View the Difputes on the Continent in what Light you pfeafc, it will be found an Undertaking paft cur Skill and Strength to compofe them: Confequently we have no Bufinefs there, let who will be in the Right or in the Wrong. We ought now, in. good Earneft, to begin (if it is not too late) to think of our own Country, and endeavour to avert the Deftruction that hangs over our Headsand therefore, I mult repeat it once more, bring home the Army from "Flanders. I am, SIR, Yours, &c. P. S. As. to the Negotiations at Hanau for a Peace, (which one might expect I fhould have touch'd upon, while my Hand was m) it is enough to obferve, that it may be gather'd from the Piece under Confideraiion, that the Court of Vienna knew nothing at all of the Matter So that the Publick has a Right to expect Satisfaction on this Head from another Quarter; and there I-let it reft. From the London Gazette. Turin, Sept. 19. WE hear from the Camp at Saluces, that upon the 1 jthlnftant part of theGarrifon of Com faliied out, fet fire to, and deftroy'd fome of the Enemy's Works on one Side of the Town, and kill'dand wounded feveral of their Men. Upon the 15 th the'Enemy began to throw their Bombs into- the Town, but with; very little Execution. There is a Report here* that Yefterday our Army began to defile towards Coni in three Columns. Upon: the 10th a large Body of the Enemy, under the Command of M. de Campo Santo, advanced to Chiuia, in which Place we had 400 regular Troops, and fome Companies of Militia, under the Command of Lieutenant Colonel Alfier, who fkirmifh'd with them for fome Hours 5 but the Enemy making Vfe of their Cannon, Jieretir'd into theCaftle, and the ' Militia to the neighbouring Hills^ Thereupon theix Miquelets enter'd, and fet fire to the Town, which was all reduced to A flies, excepting the Caftle and four or five finall Houfes. From the Gamp before Coni, Sept, z6. We have had, for thirty Hourspaft} a continualRain, which feemslikely to laft, and. our.jrrenchesare now full of Water. t If the' Rain hokls a little longer we fhall, in all Probability, be forced taraife the Siege out of hand, iwlefs it be intended to leave our Artillery behind us, fbrafrnuch as the new Attack, which we had begun fince the 2jd Inftant, on^ifrotheTSicfe of the Gefio, is become impracticable by, the Qyerfiowing of that fmall River \ befities that, ttie Amval of'put Conyoys of Grain and Meal, which we have been expecting Day ttfter Day, from the Time that we enter'dthe Plain, is ftill fiirthef obftructed by this bad Weather. If the Advice of the beft, Engineers, in lelition to the third Attack, had been foilow'd at the Beginning of the Siege, we fhould moft certainly have been at this Time Matters of Com j inftead of which, our Annies muft now return td'take Winter Quarters in France, excepting the Garxjfbp which we"fhall leave at Demont, and in the Poftoflrhe' Valley of Stura for the fake of the Communication.' That- Valley being deftitute of Provifions for Man o* Beaftj our Reireat will not be at all agreeable, and tbt Barbets will iikewife very much incommode us in it. ^refden, Sept. 18.

The greateft Damage Prague fuffer'd by the Siege, was the entire Ruin of the Fort before the Gate oi the Gallows, and of rjt Houfes thereabouts. They are now very bufy in repairing thft faid Fort, in which they employ the Huffars and Pan-dours that were taken Prifoners. The Pruffiah Garriib^ of Prague confifts for the prefent but of 5000 Men, who are not fuffer'd to pafs the Night in the Houfes, but lie upon their Beds before the Doors in the open Street,' whilft the Burghers dare not ftir out of their Houfes at Night on Pain of Death, which they are to incur alfby if they are found talking in private together, or fend^ ing Letters from thence.

Like a 90s era, brick-sized cell-phone, much of the world sees conservatives as a worn out species with worn out ideas, completely incapable of connecting with the tech-savvy youth of the 21st Century. However, many at the 2014 Western Conservative Summit would beg to differ.

Senator Mike Lee's remarks at #WCS14 (as prepared)
Senator Mike Lee, a politician and lawyer from Utah, spoke Friday at the Western Conservative Summit, "America At Its Best" (7/18/14). Below are his remarks prepared beforehand for the event:
Ideas to Action: Enacting a Conservative Reform Agenda
Colorado politicians arrive in force at #WCS14
The Western Conservative Summit has proven in years past to be the event of choice for prominent Colorado politicians as well as candidates seeking public office.
As the Summit kicks off for 2014, Colorado's conservative leaders have once again flocked to Denver both to speak with constituents and to educate themselves on current critical issues. Continue reading
It soon begins!
Electric anticipation fills the air in downtown Denver at the Hyatt Regency as dozens of event staff and volunteers make last minute preparations for the nearly 2500 patriots attending the 2014 Western Conservative Summit just hours from now.
Check-in begins on Friday at 2 p.m., Continue reading
Counting down to the Summit
With less than 48 hours until the Western Conservative Summit begins, many are already gearing up for an inspirational and educational weekend. Calendars have been cleared out in anticipation of great political leaders and commentators of the conservative movement such as Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin. While making the trek Continue reading
America hasn't peaked yet
('76 Editor) "Contrition is BS." Press secretary Ronald Ziegler's acid tone shocked me – and he didn't use the initials. It was 1973, a bad year in a bad decade for America. I was a young speechwriter in the Nixon White House, assigned to gather input from Ziegler and national security advisor Henry Kissinger for a TV address Continue reading
The Right Movies: WCS14 film screenings announced
Western Conservative Summit 2014 reminds delegates of the power of conservative film with its popular nightcap feature, "The Right Movies." Feature films and documentaries that friends of freedom can applaud are screened Friday and Saturday evenings Continue reading
Citizen Action Workshops announced for WCS14
(Editor) Western Conservative Summit 2014, Centennial Institute's fifth annual rally on the right, features 20 top speakers from politics, public policy, media, and the battle of ideas. But that's not all. Continue reading
Legislating morality is the wrong question
('76 Contributor) Let me comment on the March 10 forum at Centennial Institute, "Can We Legislate Morality? Marijuana, Marriage, Murder," which I was unable to attend. It's an attention-getting topic, since in my view the libertarian trend is becoming a suicidal libertine trend, demanding total freedom and a social safety net which becomes unaffordable. It's also on its way to endorsing NAMBLA as the next step after gay marriage. Eventually the victim list will get some attention. Continue reading
Do elections matter? Ask Coloradans
For this month's Issue Monday on Oct. 14, Centennial Institute hosted a mixed panel to discuss current issues in Colorado, addressed through the larger lenses of policy and public attitude. Continue reading

White House Pressures Legislators Into Gutting USA FREEDOM Act
Re:Hope and change! (284 comments)
I conceed your point. Maybe the printers left off the second part of the slogan:
"Yes we CAN
"Yes we CAN
"Yes we CAN
I certainly didn't exact anything to change. I just enjoy poking the people who did. I have to admit, they aren't fighting as much as they used to. Now they just twitch a little, I guess the realization has finally set in, shame it took them this long.

I used to videotape Models Inc. I would record it and many other shows. I just looked now but I no longer have the videotape. (If I needed a videotape I would record over something that I didn't think I would ever watch again).
I have 10 videotapes of Seinfeld, and other shows: Golden Girls, Melrose Place, The Simpsons, Empty Nest, Fashion File, Designing Women, music videos, bodybuilding, American Justice, Biography, Queer as Folk, Pacific Palisades, Married by America, Mr Romance (they wore masks), For Love or Money, Survivor, Olympics, interviews, comedy, etc.
Many of the videos haven't made it and I either recorded over it or tossed it out. I don't really know what to do with why I have
they should have had more season of 'Are You Hot?' (One of the shows my avatar Sean Cassidy was on)

In his July 24 letter ("Anti-Israel sentiment may be growing in R.I."), Nicholas Schamder mentions that protesters were "reading poetry" during their protests.
They can continue reading poetry; no harm in that. Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces will continue the job of dismantling the infrastructure of terror (rocket launchers and network of tunnels) that Hamas has built using money (and concrete) that was intended to build kindergartens, schools and industries.
I hope, once this infrastructure is destroyed, this will bring a better life to both the Israeli and Palestinian population.

The meningitis vaccine NeisVac-C is a group C meningococcal polysaccharide conjugated to tetanus toxoid. The polysaccharide is recovered from the Neisseria meningitidis cell capsule and is purified by base treatment with subsequent diafiltration to remove hydrolyzed cell impurities. Purified polysaccharide is clear to slightly cloudy. A recent group of successive lots contained large amounts of precipitate that had not been observed in 10 previous years of commercial manufacturing. The precipitate was mostly composed of the sodium salt of palmitic acid (C16:0) with lesser amounts of palmitoleic (C16:1), oleic (C18:1), stearic (C18:0) and myristic (C14:0) sodium salts. The elevated fatty acid levels that formed the precipitate were linked to a damaged pump used during harvest. Replacement of the damaged pump corrected the issue and >15 lots have since been produced without precipitation.
There are significant differences between small molecules and biologics fill/finish capacity.
New designations lead to faster drug approvals, but there is more work to be done.

Safety First
Gettin whacked in the head and losing your smarts is not the in style this season. I like the red mutiny because a) it doesn't press on my forehead like most other helmets, b) the bill keeps water out of my goggles, and c) it looks good. I've rocked this helmet for some time, probably 200 days on hill, and it has never let me down. If you think helmets are uncool, then you must've hit your head. Safety first, and if you're feelin unsafe, always take a break, perhaps in the trees.

is omega worth it

--- Official Browncoat of Gamefaqs. | |
i'd say yes if you are making decent money. if money is an issue than no, wait till it isn't an issue. it isn't bad DLC, but it isn't life-changing either. --- Colt 45 and two zig-zags, Baby that's all we need We can go to the park, after dark, smoke that tumbleweed! | |
Not even remotely. | |
If you'd prefer a story-heavy DLC, then Omega might not be for you. Not to say that the story and characters are bad, but other than the synergy between Aria and Nyreen, it's pretty straightforward. Omega has a lot of excellent firefights and some sweet additions to your arsenal. If you're interested in an action-packed DLC, Omega's great for that. --- Lightning. It flashes bright, then fades away. It can't protect. It only destroys. | |
That depends if you are one of those Aria Fans but to me,ever since I got the ME3 Collectors Edition, I read the ME Comic book about Aria being overrun by Cerberus and ever since Omega came out, I always wanted to help Aria not because I like her but if it's a ME Single Player DLC, I'm buying. Omega is okay for what it's worth but you do get a new Biotic power, The first ever Female Turian in Mass, Effect game [besides the one in the other Comic Book] but it is no ware near that good as ME2 Lair of the Shadow Broker and it does introduce a new Reaper Enemy. I would just wait until a price drop but the choice is yours. --- Brad Pitt, There's no silencer on that shotgun. How are you supposed to kill anyone softly without a silencer? XBOX GT: Player1mj117. PSN: playmaker45. | |
If you're looking for a story-centric addition... No. If you're looking for four hours of adrenaline-filled gameplay? Yes. --- XBL GT - Sheepman2342 | |
I enjoyed it, but it wasn't worth the price. I'd wait for a sale and then get it. --- More and more, I find myself wondering if it's all worth fighting for...for a future without fear...yeah, it's worth it. (Chris Redfield) | |
Best ME3 DLC so far. And the only one that is actually fun to play through, has great gameplay and doesn't cheese up the story like Leviathan and From ashes did. --- You have one or more unread System Notifications. Please read them as soon as possible ^^ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEf5VFKplzw | |
If you want some intense combat against some new enemies, then it's worth it. The storyline isn't anything phenomenal, but I thought the fights were great. The fact that they re-introduced mechs as enemies is especially awesome if you happen to have Sabotage. --- White FC 0260 9873 0859; White 2 FC 2022 8464 1690 | |
I'm a bit of a cheapskate (student) but a big ME fan... I enjoyed the DLC but felt it was a little over-priced. Basically, if you've got the dough to burn and you just need some more Mass Effect, I'd do it. Otherwise, wait for a sale or something. Omega should've been $10. --- "The act of treachery is an art, but the traitor himself is a piece of ****." - Mike Tyson |

While researching my features that will run in FlightInternational the week of the Singapore Air Show, I came across this cool retrovideo of a 1988 Singapore TV series about the RSAF. There is some good footage of a number oftypes, including the F-5 and A-4. Surprisingly the F-16 doesn't make anappearance – perhaps at the time this type was deemed too sensitive.
For fighter aficionados this year's show looks like prettyslim pickings. The flying display list is short: F-15SG, F-16 C/D, RAAFRoulettes, and the Blair Rebel 3000. In year's past the show offered hardcore displays by aircraft like the F-111, the B-1B, A380, and even Russiantypes. There could be more flying displays than what's currently listed (I've heard the RMAF's MiG-29equipped Smokey Bandits will be at the show) but the show organizer seemsagonizingly slow about updating the site.
At least the 787 will be on static, but what of Airbus? TheRAAF isn't sending a KC-30A, the A400M is needed for tests in Europe, and theA380 is, well, a bit common these days.

4 weeks pregnant and cramping?
I am 4 weeks and 3 days pregnant and every now and again I get these tiny cramps. I heard that cramping may be a sign of a possible miscarriage but I am a very healthy person. I have no spotting of any kind. What could the tiny cramps be from?

Hi there, I have been reading lots of threads and posts about symptoms etc whilst ttc bug finally got my bfp last Sunday and my period should've been due today but I've been cramping lots the last 3 days like my period will start, it's my second baby but forgotten what it was like last time! It's all so exciting yet sooooo scary too, want to curl up and rest for the next 8 months!!! Hope all is ok ?? ;/posted 08/06/2013 by Hull jules
I am experiencing the same. Thanks for all of the tips and advice as I will be 30 yoa this Friday and this is my first child. Is there anything I can do to make the cramping stop?? I just know to lie down :(.......posted 01/23/2013 by mynewb8by
hello, i done a pregnancy test last week and it came out negitivebut my period is later 5 days now and it is always on time and my nipples are very sore like they have been cut and i have cramps and i am also running to the toliet all the time. maybe this might sound stupid but i feel different inside. did anyone else experience all this before gettin a positive result?posted 11/14/2012 by kellyanna21
Hello I also am about 4 weeks pregnant and since the day before my period have had pretty strong cramps. Not gonna lie just a little scary. I also feel tightening and almost like a burning and tenderness if I even just press a little on my stomach. This isn't all the time. My doctor said when your nerves stretch there is a little inflammation in the lining of your uterus because I am pretty healthy and dont get UTI's or bladder infections ever. I mean before I got pregnant I did not have that. I guess we can over think things too. I just don't like having to wait a month to go to gynecologist because i have so many questions.posted 08/25/2012 by Hunter41
A little cramping is normal as long as you have no bleeding along with it and they are not severe, they say a lil cramping in the first trimester is normal and is caused by your body changing and getting ready for the baby. I had 3 miscarriages before so I know how it feels so trust me you will know if that is happening because it is very very painful. But I am 12 wks 2 days today and my baby is very healthy (never got past 5 wks before). So no worries unless it gets worse and bleeding joins the cramping, congrats on your pregnancy and I wish yu luckposted 08/23/2012 by hisz1n0nli10
I have a missed period today and cramping for the past 4 or 5 days, this would be my first pregnancy and around 4 weeks and 1 day along. I know I'm pregnant cause I feel pregnant , back aches, missed period, cramps, sore nipples from time to time and I vaginally check my temperature and it's been 99-100.4:) I have PCOS and took 1 round of Clomid days 5-9 at 50mg and ovulated the 16th day of my 29 day cycle and started getting cramp about 10days after ovulation and now a missed period and testing on Friday since a week past our missed period is suppose to be more accurate! Good luck to everyone baby dust ladies!posted 07/02/2012 by cham_carter

Decriminalization of small amounts of marijuana and hashish has just cleared its last Vermont legislative hurdle.
The Vermont House on Monday voted to concur with Senate changes to the bill - including a Senate-passed provision that decriminalizes possession of up to five grams of hashish, a concentrated derivative of marijuana.
The bill also replaces criminal penalties with civil fines similar to a traffic ticket for possession of up to an ounce of marijuana.
The bill must still be signed into law by Gov. Peter Shumlin, who says he supports it.

Food in Berlin: Pauly Saal for Lunch
I've been writing about Pauly Saal before, and since then had a lot of discussions about it with other people about the quality and the pricing of the food there, which some think don't go very well together. Judging the appropriateness of prices is hard, especially in Berlin, where every entrée over 15 Euros is considered expensive (and every falafel sandwich over 4 Euros for that matter).
Still, I think the food is fantastic – the vegetarian option I had for lunch was a salad (8 Euros) followed by pearl barley risotto with greens and those black mushrooms, whose name I forgot, with a very balanced yet creative taste (15 Euros). The desert included quinces and therefor was a winner for me anyway (I'm still on the quince-hype, which I think should've lasted a lot longer than it did). So I'd say yes, it's worth it.

you're right, good food and prices is a tricky thing in berlin. I strongly believe, not everything has to be expensive, but we need to start valuing great quality too. like the food at Pauly Saal. good stuff costs money & it is worth saving a little for it. happy new year & thank you for all those wonderful posts!
Happy new year. First I would thank you too for this blog. I kinda follow your restaurant tipps for Berlin. I planned to go to Pauly Saal before christmas but my guest want to go to a different place. I still cant believe that I let dicatate them my birthday by going to a stupid steakhouse. Yeah, I know. But my point it was expensive and bad. nothing special, no nice memories. So I prefer your choice and agree with this point of view.
This looks so delicious!
Oh, this prices are really good – bavarian level.

I see one of these beauties once every 5 years or so near my vines by the front gate. There's wild grape, crossvine and morning glories creating dense protection for small wildlife in there. They fly differently than butterflies with more "normal" wing design. I can tell they are they from the way they cast their shadows.
I felt well enough to go exploring by myself up to Pitt Spring on Sunday. I got out of the house around noon. It takes about 20 minutes to drive there and the parking lot was full. So I parked out on the road and almost as planned, this beautiful specimen, larger than the one in my vines this summer, was waiting for me, nectaring in the Bidens alba, my old friend and dependable butterfly plant, Spanish Needles.
I didn't know this was the Florida State butterfly, or that it is the only butterfly to eat pollen as well as nectar. You learn something every day!

VIDEO - Monsanto CEO Says 'play Fair', Guys
Submitted by emalvini on Tue, 05/21/2013 - 10:30VIDEO - Monsanto CEO Says 'play Fair', Guys
Published on May 20, 2013
Monsanto Exec Hugh Grant accuses Anti-GMO protestors of "reverse eliticism", saying their social media campaigns aren't giving his company a chance to feed the world through advanced technology.
According to State Department cables reviewed by Food & Water Watch, the biotech giant already has more than enough help propagating to the world, as the US government lobbies foreign nations on their behalf.

The Right Perspective - Ron Paul Effect May Have Cost Romney the Election
Submitted by Caardvaark on Sun, 11/11/2012 - 22:53http://www.therightperspective.org/2012/11/11/ron-paul-effec...
The GOP's snubbing of conservative-libertarian Ron Paul and his supporters may have cost Republican candidate Mitt Romney the presidential race, a new analysis shows.
Romney's margin of loss to President Obama in five states – the swing states Florida, Ohio, Virginia, New Hampshire, and the dyed-blue Connecticut – were less than the number of votes Paul won during the Republican primary, shows political news website Policymic.
In Florida alone, President Obama defeated Romney by 46,000 votes while Paul got more than 117,000 votes in the primary. If only 40-percent of these Ron Paul Republicans stayed home on Election Day, it would have been enough to cost Romney the state and its 29 electoral votes.

Ron Paul Effect Costing Romney the Election
OK. I get it that Romney would alienate his financial support from the Sheldon Adelson's of the world if he didn't take a pro-war, Israel-first positions. And Romney would not be able to compete. But why so vindictive? He was confident he wouldn't lose to Ron Paul. Why not have an honest delegate count and allow Ron to win 200 or so of them? It would have meant a lot to Ron Paul supporters to be clear victors over #2,3,4,5,and 6. None of us who heard the John "Bomb Iran" McCain speech knowing that Ron Paul had been cheated out of his time on the floor could then turn around and vote for Mitt.

Details on Industry Insight.
I received a passionate email in response to my interviews with Volcom's CEO Richard Woolcott and Gotcha founder Michael Tomson about "sameness" in the action sports industry.
Brooke McGregor, founder of sunglass maker Sabre Vision in Costa Mesa, believes many industry retailers are playing it too safe and don't give new brands a chance to gain a following. Sabre Vision launched in December and is in 150 stores in the U.S. Here's Brooke's email, which he gave me permission to post:
"I have a few words I would like to express, after reading (Richard) Woolcott's interview. I'm currently launching exactly what all the industry is saying they need, from the brand to the retail to the consumer, a fresh new brand, a brand that is willing to take a risk in both product and marketing, a brand that reignites a very boring mass produced over saturated industry, a brand to have a little fun with.
"So my question is where is the support from the retailer? All I hear is 'Sure we will test your brand,' 'We will give you 30 days to prove yourself at 15% discounts, sale or return.' No risk no risk no risk! Great do you think Stussy or Volcom checked at retail in it's first 30 days instore? So my point being when I hear about stores complaining about their position and trying to figure out how to stand out, I laugh, I got a really good idea why don't you support the brands that support an evolving industry not just concentrating on vertical product and bullying everyone, it used to be a partnership.
"Remember when the industry was booming. Stop telling everyone 'Everything looks the same.' It's your fault! You are killing the industry by constantly raising the levels of fear with your spread sheets and reports! You guys are like the government! FEAR FEAR FEAR Why don't you support and educate your customers about new brands and or new styles and it will all boom again? Everyone should hang out with Akram at Jack's for a week, that kid is single-handedly resuscitating the industry."
Feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com with any thoughts on the subject. I only post emails with permission.

3rd Annual Oncology Biomarkers Congress, 14th & 15th October 2013, Manchester
This event provides invaluable insight into the progression of oncology biomarker research from initial discovery through to the development of fully validated companion diagnostics.
Too often, the diagnosis of cancer happens in the late stages of the disease; molecular biomarkers provide a promising prospect for the detection of early stage cancer. On day one, our industry leaders will discuss the latest screening methods and the use of oncology imaging biomarkers in clinical trials. Our internationally renowned speakers will also assess the latest profiling technologies and their impact on biomarker development.
On day two, the discussions will focus on the role of tumour banks in personalised medicine, strategies for the co-development of drug and diagnostics and methods of assay development for the validation of companion diagnostics. Our experts will also discuss the importance of partnering relationships in enhancing the safety and efficacy of personalised medicine.
