How to Get Korean Home Delivery
Korean Home Delivery is a thing of pure beauty. The food is the same price as it would be in the restaurant, the appetizers come for free, you don't have to tip the delivery person (or at least that's what we're told), and – here's the clincher – when you're finished eating you leave your dirty dishes outside your door and the delivery guy will come back to pick them up! We always wanted to try this home delivery service, but were too scared, because our Korean was so shoddy. We finally thought that we had enough Korean on us to try ordering, so two days ago we finally did. We made a video of the whole ordeal and, even though it didn't work as smoothly as expected, it still worked. You'll be amazed when you see what it looks like. Altogether, ordering food for the both of us cost only 9000 won altogether, which is roughly NINE BUCKS. There are many reasons to love Korea, and this is definitely one of them.
Oh, and by the way, the place we ordered from wasn't very good, so if you're in Bucheon don't order from "Ee Moo Noy" – or at least that's how we think it's pronounced. The food was pretty bland and disappointing, and we wouldn't have enjoyed it as much if we weren't as exhilarated from our success.

Food to use home delivery in Korea : Fried/Spicy chicken (order half each for 2 ppl and eat fried first), Jokbal (Pig's feet if you want to give it a try), Pizza
I wouldn't have other Korean food delivered to my house unless it's absolutely necessary. They don't taste good. -
Just curious….Is it possible to order delivery from online in Korea? Or is it necessary to know Korean to do so?
Btw, I love you guys! I've been a big fan for a few years now & Planning on coming to Korea soon!
Thanks :)
you can if you want to order pizza at places like Pizza Hut, Papa Johns, Momino. but one thing to remember, you've got to read and write koean to understand and order at their websites. For other food? I don't think so.
I've been living in Seoul for around 6 weeks now and have been so curious about food delivery stuffs. I'm a little unsure because my one-room building has a door code, before you can get to the individual apts. How would you handle that-just include the code with the address?
I've also tried to figure that out for receiving packages…I could tell my landlord wasn't super excited about holding my box of stuff :/
Can you feel the jealous rolling off my body, oh man, someone build a korean restaurant in Saudi Arabia…
Hey guys! U rock! information wrapped up in sweet, funky-funny package, yay!
Got a question too: what is the practice of tipping in Korea? Do you have to tip in restaurants and such? or even for this home delivery? thanks!! lots o' luck to ya!-
this may sound weird and rude but we don't usually tip somebody in Korea. not in restaurants nor for home delivery. you just eat and pay… haha.
This is really cute, and I can imagine quite a lot of foreign people giving up on ordering deliveries because of the language barrier- talking on the phone is especially intimidating.
I really miss the deliveries in Korea… (like, even MacDonald's delivers there) and having my meal delivered even to all the strange places (a uni lecture room, a park, riverside)…
One interesting video here. Would you like to try this?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWSKJxq_RXs -
I saw about your blog from Saeng Saeng Jung Bo Tong on KBS a few days ago. Such an interesting one! I want to say thank you for introducing all about Korean food and Korean cultures to many other foreigners.
Thanks! Glad you liked the show :D
Just little FYI, When you say quantities of an object or anything, you say it after the object. Like, "Dolsotbibimbam hana(yo)" and those korean foods in the food container arent appetizers, they are side dishs or ban-chan :)
Thanks. We've been doing that as of late. This video was our first attempt, so we really, really botched it.
It's cool though that you could sort of muddle your way through it having only been in Korea for a couple/few months at the time. Thanks for sharing this! I liked seeing what they actually bring the food in and how the pick up works. Since phone conversations don't allow for facial expressions or gestures, I would think this is one of the trickier local cultural adventures to attempt early on. Too bad the food wasn't so good…!
If I could ask, how much Korean did you know when you first arrived? How much better could you order home delivery now after living in South Korea for over 2 years?
We didn't know anything apart from "Hello" and "I don't speak Korean." We learned that from audiobooks. That's all. When it comes to ordering food now, we do it all the time, and don't have any problems with it.

Mariah Carey is a Nanny Firing Machine
The diva is also never really sure where Nick Cannon is.
The pop diva paid a visit to The Breakfast Show radio program on Wednesday (February 12, 2014), and revealed some very interesting details about her life.
When asked if she was "hands-on" with her twins Monroe and Moroccan, Carey revealed she was - because was always firing her nannies.
"I fire nannies like this," Carey said, snapping her fingers. "But I have to because if they try to make themselves more important in the babies' minds than me…" Carey stated and then made a throat-cutting motion.
She also told the hosts she hasn't heard Beyonce's "Drunk in Love" song yet and typically has no idea in regard to whereabouts of her husband Nick Cannon.Mariah was also quizzed on what she has planned for Valentine's Day, which is tomorrow. She joked she doesn't even know if her famously workaholic husband will be at home for the romantic holiday. However even if he isn't, it won't matter as he shows how he feels in other ways.
"I have to say Nick is very festive as well. I give him credit where credit's due; flowers, we celebrate our anniversary every month of the year," she explained.
TMZ also reports Carey brought her own lighting crew to the studio. For a radio interview.

BSOD 0x9F On HP Pavillion DV7 3111ea
Hello all, this is my first post here so please be patient with me!
This relates to a HP Pavillion DV7 3111ea running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. The original OS was factory installed and the system is about 1-2 years old. I have re-installed the OS from a DVD but the same problem remains. I am constantly getting a 9F stop on the machine every time I shut the system down. It goes through the normal log off and shut down screens, the monitor turns off and the hard drive seems to turn off. My problem is the power LED's, wifi LED etc all remain lit along with the system fan running. After a while I get the BSOD. I have only been able to get the machine to save one crash dump, for some reason it wont save any more but the crash happens every time on shut down without fail. The most recent BSOD screens don't say anything about saving dump file to disk or anything like that. I have attached all the info as per BSOD posting instructions. I couldnt get a performance report as the program seems to hang on this. I hope I have included enough info to get the ball rolling! Thanks, Colin. |

Nothing stands out but we do prefer more than one dmp to spot trends.
A driver is taking too long to respond and the best way to find out id to run driver verifier ans while you are at it test your ram by running memtest. Please run these two tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem. * If you are overclocking anything reset to default before running these tests. In other words STOP!!! * If you have raid update its Driver. Memtest. Quote:
*Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program. Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
*Boot from the CD, and leave it running for at least 5 or 6 passes. Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot. Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots. Any errors are indicative of a memory problem. If a known good stick fails in a motherboard slot it is probably the slot. Driver verifier Quote:
Using Driver Verifier is an iffy proposition. Most times it'll crash and it'll tell you what the driver is. But sometimes it'll crash and won't tell you the driver. Other times it'll crash before you can log in to Windows. If you can't get to Safe Mode, then you'll have to resort to offline editing of the registry to disable Driver Verifier.
So, I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Win7 Startup Repair feature). Then, here's the procedure: - Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter - Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next" - Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next" - Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Special Pool", "Force Pending I/O Requests" and "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next" - Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next" Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next" - Select "Finish" on the next page. Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation. Reboot into Windows (after the crash) and turn off Driver Verifier by going back in and selecting "Delete existing settings" on the first page, then locate and zip up the memory dump file and upload it with your next post. If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode. If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created. |

Thanks for the reply, but as I said before I cant get the machine to save any further dmp files. It saved only one and hasnt saved any more since but continues to crash on shut down.
There is no overclocking and the HDD is connected via SATA. I enabled driver verifier a couple of days ago but it didnt find anything (yet). I also ran memtest for 2 passes for all RAM with no errors. I have removed one RAM module and have begun testing the other on it's own. This will be run all day while I am at work (11hrs approx). One on occasion, before I enabled verifier, I saw a different BSOD which indicated that verifier found a fault. This BSOD did not create a dmp file either but I did take a photo of the BSOD You will see on the photo that the BSOD shows it is about to save the dmp file, but never actually did it. All further BSOD's dont even show the text for saving anything at all. |

Can anyone shed some light on this?
My System Specs |
06 Mar 2012 | #5 |
Memtest has ran all day and made 16 passes without any errors, I can assume this RAM module and mobo slot is fine. I tried running the machine with this RAM on its own and the same fault persists.
Also, the dumps are still not saving! |

The settings are correct. Do you have the win 7 dvd? |
My System Specs |
08 Mar 2012 | #9 |
Yes, I did a clean install yesterday evening. I deleted all partitions, formatted drive etc.
The machine even hangs during the install of windows when it's trying to restart. Just freezes, mouse pointer gets stuck and will sit like that indefinitely. I have to hold the power button to shut it off. Another thing I noticed is that it boots up just fine when the fresh install of windows is booting the machine using the chipset drivers on the windows DVD but when I install the correct drivers from intel (directly from intel site) the machine hangs on startup! There doesn't appear to be any HDD activity at all. Could this be the problem with shut down as well? Is the hard drive being turned on/off at the wrong time by the system? |

Is the decision to table the vote on same-sex marriage in New Jersey a strategic move or tactical mistake?
A vote on same-sex marriage in New Jersey may come as soon as tomorrow. The Catholic Bishops and conservative Democrats and Republicans are lobbying to defeat the measure. Will New Jersey do the right thing and vote for human rights?
Following up on a June surprise, Michigan House Speaker Pro Tem Pam Byrnes on Wednesday announced she had introduced legislation to roll back a 2004 constitutional amendment which bans same-sex marriage in the state.
The Values Voters Summit weighs in: Mike Huckabee is the preferred GOP candidate for 2012 presidential run.
Michigan Democrats were surprised when State Rep. Pam Byrnes announced she would offer legislation aimed at reversing the state's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage.
Same-sex marriage will not be an issue in next year's legislative session, said the highest-ranking Democrats from both chambers of the Iowa legislature.
DC City Council votes to recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states; Randall Terry arrested at Notre Dame; pregnant British woman to face firing squad in Laos; anti-choice voices on Souter's legacy.
In San Francisco today, the California Supreme Court will consider arguments for overturning Proposition 8 – the controversial ballot initiative that redefined marriage as between one man and one woman.
The Mormons, Knights of Columbus, and others who donated in favor of Proposition 8 now want to see their "right to privacy" protected and stay anonymous. Hypocrisy, anyone?
Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family gave $727,250 in cash and services to the anti-gay marriage Proposition 8 campaign in California, according to records released by the California secretary of state.

Text of report by Italian popular privately-owned financial newspaper Il
Sole-24 Ore, on 8 September
[Commentary by Ugo Tramballi: "At Ground Zero, the Shadow of a Declining
William Cleveland, the chief of the FBI's Chinese counterespionage
effort in San Francisco, had a lover named Katrina Leung. He thought he
was her only paramour, but she was also making out with special agent
James J. Smith. Cleveland also believed that the woman was one of his
sources in the Chinese community in California. The opposite was true:
It was he and Smith who were unwittingly feeding information to her.
Katrina Leung was an agent for the State Security Ministry in Beijing.
Even in the world of counterespionage, as David Wise writes in "Tiger
Trap. America's Secret Spy War With China", the Chinese are more
insidious competitors than the Russians were back in the days of the
Cold War. Beijing's recruiters manipulate the innocent wish of millions
of immigrants in the United States to "help with the country's
modernization." In the meantime, poor China hs bought up the ports at
the mouth of the Panama Canal and, as of 2015, it will be Latin
America's second most important trading partner, chipping away at US
supremacy in its own "backyard."
Are these signs of geopolitical decadence? The CII [Confederation of
Indian Industry] explained last month that, between June 2010 and June
2011, international investments in India shot up by 310 per cent, thus
multiplying jobs. In the United States employment is rising by zero per
cent for the first time in 70 years. Is this a worrying message for the
stagnant and indebted, albeit wealthy, global superpower? According to
historian Paul Kennedy, it is. "The United States is going to downsize,
though with what financial measures I cannot tell; that is going to
depend on the political and electoral battle over the next 18 months.
But I think that it is going to pull out of Afghanistan and Iraq, that
it is no longer going to send massive armies to the Middle East or to
Asia. It will honour its commitments with NATO and with Japan, but it is
not going to open up any new fronts. It has no alternative." A quarter
of a century ago, Kennedy wrote a book to explain tha! t, like all
empires, the US empire was going into decline too. He published it when
Ronald Reagan was winning the Cold War and everyone thought that he was
A country that cannot frighten its potential enemies with the threat of
opening up new war fronts can no longer be the world's policeman.
Without the economic backing that allowed it to become that policeman in
the first place, the United States can no longer be what Hillary Clinton
described it as being only two years ago: "It has responsibilities
everywhere and the nature of the challenges we are facing is not only
bilateral or multilateral. It is transnational."
The potential for instability implicit in the possible end of "US
exceptionalism" is huge, because the Israelis and the Saudis rely on the
United States for their security, the Egyptian, Libyan, and Syrian
insurgents rely on it for their democracy, the Palestinians rely on it
for their state, the oil magnates rely on it for order to reign, and the
Colombians and the Mexicans rely on it to beat the drug cartels. And it
is with Washington that the Iranians and the North Koreans want to talk
about their nuclear programmes, and the Russians about the
Nonproliferation Treaty.
Out of economic necessity, out of diplomatic realism, and probably also
by ideological choice, Barack Obama is managing an epoch-making
transition, as gradually as he can. "I believe in US exceptionalism," he
told a NATO summit in Strasbourg two years ago, "in exactly the same
way, I suspect, as the British believe in their exceptionalism and the
Greeks in theirs." Would he have said that if there had been no 0911, if
the Bush administration had responded differently, if it had not caused
the deficit to grow and allowed Wall Street to do as it pleased? There
is no answer to those questions, of course, because the day the Twin
Towers fell did happen.
History may well choose 11 Septembe r 2001 as the starting date for the
era in which the US empire began to see the decline of its unchallenged
global power. The terrorist attacks on that day bear a resemblance to
the attack in Sarajevo in 1914 [REFERENCE to assassination of
Austro-Hungarian Archduke Franz Ferdinand]: The world would have changed
anyway, but a single episode brought that change on much more rapidly.
Like [Serb assassin] Gavrilo Princip, so also Usamah Bin-Ladin has
scored a victory in some ways. He did not create a caliphate, and the
young people behind the Arab spring have never invoked him as a model.
But as Aaron Miller, a former US peace broker in the Israeli-Palestinian
talks, said: "A great power has gotten involved in a region which it
cannot change and from which it cannot pull out." If we look at what is
going on in the Middle East, in Afghanistan, and in Iraq, the US victory
is no longer measured in terms of how to beat the enemy but! of how and
when to get out. Henry Kissinger said: "The best exit strategy is
victory. Another exit strategy is diplomacy. But if you identify your
exit strategy with withdrawal, then you are giving up your political
A country becomes a superpower when, alongside its wealth, it can also
display a people in arms. The American century came to a peak with the
landings in Normandy and the liberation of Europe [ 1944-5]. It started
to decline in the past decade, when its wealth began to diminish and its
people began to turn their backs on collective sacrifice, sending those
on the bottom rung of the social ladder to do their fighting for them.
In 2006 only one Princeton graduate chose a military career, and there
were none from any of the other Ivy League universities. And only one of
the graduates from those universities came from a family with a military
history. Dostoyevsky wrote that a leadership class starts to go into
decline when "it wishes to base justice on reason alone."

The latest issue of my perzine, the Ken Chronicles, is ready for mailing. It's got some articles on technology (new iPad, iPod, iPod docks), an update on the 1937 travel journal I discovered in a flea market, some ranting about Florida, reviews of recent movies, books & magazines, interesting people who've recently passed on, among other things.
It's already in the mail to my regular trading partners and available for $2 to anyone else, but I'm always looking to trade for other similar publications (travel-oriented zines, perzines, etc.). Let me know what you've got to offer.

Issue three is the newest issue of Cadillac Girl zine...I finished it today. It is about how my life has changed since the last time I published Cadillac Girl years ago; being a mother, a wife, and finding myself again. I will be hitting the copier soon to get some copies out. Check out the website http://cadillacgirlzine.webs.com
Piltdownlad #4 covers a wide range of topics related to zines, self-publishing and perzines, including a meditation on the first perzine I ever read, the pondering of truth versus fiction in the perzine, the origins of the name "piltdownlad," what Dischord Records meant to me as a teenager, who and what I saw at the LA Zine Fest as well as several pages of zine reviews.
The main part of the zine is a confessional narrative entitled "The Nasty Oh-Dear," which details how I ended up a ward of the state of Alabama. This is the first paragraph:
"In 1986, when I was fifteen, I moved from East LA to a small town in Alabama. My father, a sergeant in the Army, was transferring to Fort McClellan outside a place called Anniston. Along for the ride were Joey, my younger brother, and Rick, a friend of the family who was also in the Army. We left LA the day after Christmas. It was the first time Joey and I had ever been out of Southern California. The prospect of a new beginning was like a beacon guiding us across the country. The way the old man talked about it, the South was a land of golden opportunities, where we'd be free to reinvent our lives for the better. Six months later, the old man and Rick were in prison, Joey was in a group home and I was in a mental hospital. For me, things were looking up."
This story is not for the weak-hearted OR the hard-hearted. I find the concept of "triggers" somewhat off-putting, but if you are sensitive to the suggestion of child sexual abuse, suicidal fantasies or bodily functions, you might want to skip this part of the zine or avoid the whole thing altogether.
I prefer trades, but if money is an issue, I can do paypal or etsy.
If interested, message me here or visit my site: www.piltdownlad.com.
Pieces #7: On Belief, Delusion & Love
Perzine 1/4 size : 86 pages
An account of a turbulent relationship and its psychological effects. Includes pieces on internal archetypes, elements of a M/s relationship, and questioning what was delusion, what was belief, and what was--in fact--reality.
Available for $3 or equal trade. Trades do not have to be all zines. Please leave a message on my profile if you'd like to set something up.
I've only been active sporadically in the WMZ community, but I do have a new perzine, if anyone is interested in a copy. It's called Like Lightning and it's a short, personal, collection of vignettes on the following topics: apostasy; waiting; beauty; "Difficult? Well, learn it;" voices; latency; women, men and fiction; unclaimed bodies; hate; his biggest complaint; the malignancies of men; crumbling; neurological misfires; what is hidden behind the cynicism; crushes; first steps; Smog; and brutal dichotomies. Probably extremely obviously influenced by Anne Carson. 24 quarter-sized pages, with a sparkly black cover.

With the inevitable tunnelling work that Chennai will have to put up with as the Metro Rail comes up across the city, there is bound to be an effect on buildings along the route. Residents of Chennai wonder if there is anything they can do to ensure that their buildings remain safe.
Already, as the tunnelling work of Chennai Metro Rail paces ahead, several buildings have suffered cracks as result of this work. The giant tunnel boring machine (TBM), as it drilled underneath at least 700 buildings in the Broadway area, caused cracks in about 20 of them including heritage structures.
Samira Khan (name changed), a resident of STS Complex in Broadway, a building that recently developed cracks, said that her daily schedule was disrupted as the repair work was done. "The work is almost over now and I am completely exhausted dealing with this. For the last two weeks, I have sacrificed all my time for the repair work. Not just that, my family members have developed dust allergy and fallen sick due to the cement dust," she said.
Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) may have taken care of the repair work on the affected buildings, but the owners say that they were unaware that a tunnel boring machine (TBM) would go underneath their building. "We only woke up to find cracks all over our house. Now, we are struggling to get compensation from them," she added.
The CMRL is required to inform the residents of areas in which boring is to take place of the date on which the activity will begin, according to experts in IIT-Madras. "It is the duty of CMRL to inform the residents before TBM drills below their building. The only thing residents can do is to ensure that the cracks don't widen; if they widen, then it is cause for concern," said a structural engineering expert from IIT Madras.
Cracks usually occur when the soil is weak and overburdened in the tunnelling location. Plus, the strength of the foundation of the building also plays an important role, he added.
Before tunnelling, CMRL has been surveying the area to see if any old and vulnerable buildings need protection. But, incidents of crack are largely unavoidable in such large scale constructions particularly in congested area where known methods of strengthening cannot be carried out, said S. R. Gandhi, faculty, and the Head of the Department of Civil engineering in IIT- Madras.
"The designers do have a fair idea of the type of soil that the machine would bore through and a detailed investigation is carried out by drilling of bore holes at regular intervals, but small pockets of different quality of soil in between these boreholes cannot be ruled out. This might cause such damage," he said.
It is certainly challenging to carry out tunnelling in Chennai's soil conditions which is a coastal region with large variations and occasional soft marine clay layers, Mr. Gandhi added.
CMRL looks into the nature of the structures before beginning to tunnel in a stretch, said officials. "If we suspect that the building may collapse, we evacuate the building. I'm told that few structures had to be dismantled because they were too weak to stand the tunnelling process," said the official of CMRL.
The piers of Delhi Metro Rail too developed many cracks intermittently in some stretches after the operations commenced.
When asked if such cracks would continue to occur when the Chennai Metro Rail trains are up and running, the official denied any such possibility. "The vibrations of trains certainly will not have such an effect on our buildings," he added.

I just purchased a African violet from a flower shop today. The soil that it is in is rock hard. I watered when I got home now the soil feels like a really hard sponge. Is that how it should be? Here is a pic I the soil. |

Hi That is an Optimara plant. We can tell by the clay colored plastic pot it comes in. Optimara uses peat for their potting medium. Many people prefer to use a combination of peat mixed with perlite and sometimes vermiculite. Optimara also tends to put their plants into 4" pots, the foliage will eventually fill and extend over the sides of the pot, as it should. But the pot is a little large for the plant right now. If you do decide to repot it, you can choose a 3" pot rather than a 4", or you can repot it back in the same pot. It is suggested to repot when on the dry side. The potting mix used by Optimara has qualities that many people object to, such as holding water too long when wet. If you got the plant and the mix was dried and caked, it is also recommended to give it small amounts of water a little at a time, and let it absorb that, rather than all at once. There is a tendency with Optimaras that when the mix gets dried out, to add too much water. Then the mix holds the water for too long. Then the roots rot and the plant crown comes loose. If that should happen, you can restart the plant form a crown. I hope you paid a reasonable price for the plant. I have done both with Optimaras, left them in their original pot and potting medium for many months, and also repotted right away. They usually do better when in a potting medium prepared for African Violets mixed with perlite. Joanne |
I have miracle grow av potting mix. Will that work? |
It's probably still a bit too peaty. I cut my av soil with 50-70% perlite. Also be aware MG contains fertilizer, so you don't want to add any extra for a while. I find I damage the roots too much when I try to remove the plant from the original soil. These days I just chop off the crown at soil level, remove a bunch of leaves, plant the crown and wait for it to grow new roots. Good luck :-) Karin |
- Posted by whitelacey 6 (My Page) on Fri, Jul 11, 14 at 2:06
If you let the soil dry a bit and you're gentle, you can work the peat off of the roots without much damage. Cut your MG with perlite and/or vermiculite. If using all three go with a 1-1-1. If just using one, preferably perlite, I would go 1-1. Linda |

While these roundups won't focus directly on acts of terror, much of the debate regarding civil liberties stems from how we choose to respond to them. After the Charlie Hebdo attack, many were quick to point out that those supposedly standing up for the ideals of free expression don't exactly have that ideal in all circumstances.
Shortly after the attacks, the French arrested comedian Dieudonné M'bala M'bala for writing that he sympathized with Jewish supermarket attacker Charlie Coulibaly. As disgusting as that sentiment is, it shouldn't be a crime merely to have an unpopular opinion. And thankfully in the United States, it isn't.
The allure of these laws is obvious – a desire to combat racism in general by trying to outlaw individual instances of it. But the failure of these laws isn't just a matter of poor implementation. It's simply impossible for any government to draw that line without a strong subjective bias. One person's biting satire will always be another person's offensive broadside. Trying to criminalize the latter without infringing upon the former is an impossible task. The logical end is a system where some extreme views are penalized while others are overlooked, a process that often exacerbates the underlying racial issues you're trying to address in the first place.
Of course, the extremism exhibited by the Charlie Hebdo attackers is of a far more repugnant variety, one that doesn't even make an attempt at pluralism. The idea that one's religious beliefs give them the right to dictate everyone else's speech and behavior is a far more toxic ideology than the state-based variety above. And the co-mingling of that type of religious decree and the unrestrained government power defines a number of the worst regimes around the world, who will be featured in these roundups a lot.

2013 and earlier-Acura MDX Prices Paid and Buying Experience
cbusireddy Posts: 33
acuraxyz Posts: 8cbusireddy, actually I bought the Tech/Ent (that's what I thought). I put the down payment, but didn't get the delivery of the car because the car had some minor defects. They couldn't get another car with the color I wanted (black/black). Now I can eitther take Tech/Ent with a different color or buy Sport/Ent. That's why the dilemna. Sorry for the confusion.
ppalonsky Posts: 34Just bought a Cherry Red MDX today in the Raleigh, NC area. Paid $41,832 + TTL and a doc fee of $395. Inventory seems tight as I called several dealers and they didn't have many on their lots, so I was happy with the above price which represents $1500 below invoice (split dealer cash $1500 for me and $500 for them). We wanted either the Cherry Red or the Bali Blue and this red one just arrived the day we closed the deal. The deal was strickly for the MDX with no trade involved.
jjcdaddy Posts: 10A tech/ent package runs 43.3K at invoice including destination. You need to do some due diligence to gain an idea of market value. Acura also has a 2k marketing support for the mdx. At the least, you should be getting quoted invoice price... people on this forum are regularly paying under that due to the marketing support. If you are willing to travel, you may want to try a dealers outside of w.virginia.
dfw_shopper Posts: 2Has anyone else been looking to buy in the Dallas/Fort Worth area?
I called today about '09 Tech Package Black ext. Taupe int. and the best over the phone deal I got was $42,500, not including TTL.
I was given a speech about "that's the market price in Texas". It just feels a little high. -

brv Posts: 2Just picked up a silver MDX (black int) with Tech Pkg from First Acura Seekonk, MA.
$40,150 (including dest) + tax, title, reg, plates, & $238 doc fee.
Very nice people, easy transaction, no hassles. They didn't have the int/ext color combo I wanted so they searched for one. They found one built in July 09...not bad.
One tank of gas in country, back roads driving, limited city stop and go:
20 MPG per computer and manual calculation of miles driven divided by gallons needed to fill tank back up. -
jbaby79 Posts: 30Raj71 and dfw_shopper,
I'm working with Champion Acura in league city. Sterlin McCall said they would match my quote but they didn't have any MDX with tech left.
Let me if you either of you decide to buy from Champion maybe we can try to get a better deal if we have more buyers.
-John -
i1tnedsel Posts: 1Just paid $41100 for a 2009 MDX with the technology package in the Washington DC Metro area. I also took the Acura financing of the 3.9%. Got the right colors I wanted too. Was this a good deal? I had to play a couple dealers off of each other but it worked. The above price did not include the tax/tag/title/etc.
crvex Posts: 23that is the one i went to. I have a good trade (2004 CRV) for them and the guys there insist that they will held all the market support money!!!!
Do you have any suggestion whom i should talk to in that dealership?
I will buy a Q5 if i can not get a similar deal you got from them
thanks! -
mjf415 Posts: 5I paid $37,000 including destination and doc fees for a base model last week. This was at a smaller dealership in CT that doesn't do a lot of volume, though they didn't have a lot of '08 inventory. You might do better at a higher volume dealer. I also think they would have come down a few hundred more if I pushed considerably harder.
rmishra Posts: 5This white MDX has only 12.5k miles on it, can someone tell me what would be the reasonable private party price for this vehicle. Edmunds comes back with an estimate of 32k whereas kbb surpirsingly prices it around 37.8k
Seller's offer is 36.5k and I am not sure if it's the right price. Any suggestions will be helpful.. -

maxzoey1 Posts: 34I made my deal on August 14th for my Balck on Black Tech package. The dealer did not have the color in stock and all Tech models were sold that were scheduled to come in were sold. I was told my vechicle would not go into production until after Labor Day and would not be delivered until the end of September or first week of October. I was also told that the only colors that would be produced for the balance of the model year would be black, silver and white..

Since 2009, Millward Brown experts from around the globe have offered annual predictions for the coming year – forecasting the latest digital and media trends and providing recommendations to help advertisers move confidently into the year ahead.
People no longer consume media in a linear way, which can cause problems for marketing teams looking to plan & measure campaigns. Amanda Phillips, Head of UK Marketing, explains how brands should be adapting their practices to be in line with new consumer trends.
To succeed globally, brands need to think locally. World famous brands like McDonald's have had to rethink their strategy and adapt. Peter Walshe, Global BrandZ Director, explains the science behind branding, and what it is that makes us identify with either local or global brands.
As the growth in mobile communications brings about a revolution in market research, it is the vast continent of Africa that is leading the way. Though some may be reticent to adopt mobile solutions, the advantages are too big for African researchers to ignore.
How creativity in ad concepts, targeting and media choices impact brand building and campaign success.
The long and short of developing engaging video for your brand in a multiscreen world.
Whether an advertising campaign is intended to boost brand engagement, build associations or drive motivation, all media are capable of delivering any campaign objective. But there are many benefits to allocating budget across channels to cost effectively extend reach. Learn what to consider during campaign planning.
Eduardo Tomiya, MD of Millward Brown Vermeer, discusses how, when it comes to Latin America, companies can profit from rising consumer confidence and the quest for meaning.
In 2010 and 2011, Hewlett-Packard Co.'s (HP) Ink Advantage home printer sales in India remained sluggish, despite a campaign touting the printer's affordable ink supplies. When a competitive printing system launched at the start of 2012, sales fell. It did not help that the HP printer was priced higher than the competition—despite its lower cost of printing.
As companies like the The Coca-Cola Company continue to push the envelope on creating immersive campaign experiences, the way research influences and measures these experiences must evolve.
Over the past three decades, technology has been central to business transformation and growth. Technology has been and continues to be a catalyst for change. It shapes not only how businesses are run, but also how brands are built.

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.

1. 1600 Headlines: Navy Day, twister in Blagoveshchensk, river boat
sinks in Moscow, Luzhniki stadium anniversary.
2. 1601 The Navy celebrates its professional holiday. President Medvedev
saw the parade at Baltiysk and the Baltic Fleet, where the lead ship was
Soobrazitelnyy. Video report notes the fleet's modernity and shows
excerpts from the parade by surface ships and submarines. Medvedev in
his speech praises the Baltic Fleet as the Navy's leading testbed for
new technologies and praises the Navy in general for upholding Russia's
status as a world power. The display included pyrotechnics, the landing
ship Kaliningrad disembarking armoured vehicles, missile launches,
unarmed combat shows and the gunboat Soobrazitelnyy. Two similar ships
of her class are under construction, of a projected total of 20. Also
there was Nastoychivyy, which Medvedev inspected. He also held talks
with the Kaliningrad Region governor, Nikolay Tsukanov, on a variety of
topics including visas for foreign travel. He said this issue can be
solved but it does not depend on Russia.
3. 1605 Video roundup of Navy Day celebrations in Vladivostok,
Sevastopol, St Petersburg.
4. 1606 A huge tornado hits Blagoveshchensk, causing much damage to
property. Several people were lifted by the twister from the balcony of
a restaurant. One died. Video shows amateur footage of tornado and
flying wreckage, eyewitness accounts, aftermath including overturned
HGVs and upended trees. Parts of the town are now without power or
telephone lines.
5. 1608 The US Senate is about to try again to solve the borrowing limit
standoff. Video report noting the imminence of a default and President
Obama's attempts to obtain an agreement. It also notes the impact were
the USA to default, including the loss of the AAA rating and consequent
rise in interest rates for US borrowing. The technical state of default
could come as soon as 15 August if the politicians cannot agree. The
Chinese and others are putting pressure on the USA to sort it out. But
the problem is less economic than political, the correspondent says -
the Republicans are trying to associate in the public's mind the name
Obama with debt default, although the borrowing limit has been raised
many times in the past without incident. This opinion is backed by
Sergey Storchak, a deputy finance minister. However, at some point the
deficit and the borrowing limit have to stop rising.
6. 1615 Syrian army storms opposition-held town; video of weapons and
7. 1615 River boat sinks in Moscow, nine die. The boat was known for its
poor technical condition. Video report. The incident happened at night,
when the boat ran into a barge at full speed. An Emergencies Ministry
spokesman describes what happened. A prosecutors' office spokesman adds
that the boat was overloaded. The stretch of the river where it happened
is winding and has numerous bridges, making it tricky to navigate.
8. 1619 Over 30 Ukrainian miners die in accidents at two collieries
9. 1620 Units of the Libyan opposition clash near Benghazi, soon after
the West unfreezes Libyan assets. Report over video, with Al-Qadhafi
appearing on TV for the first time in a while despite the allies
targeting transmitters. The report notes the rising cost to the allies
and lack of results to date. Al-Qadhafi is still well entrenched and his
forces are scoring some successes. Meanwhile, as Libyan assets abroad
are unfrozen the Benghazi-based rebels are showing signs of disunity.
Their top military commander has been assassinated. Russian presidential
envoy Mikhail Margelov (voice) notes that the alliance's mandate for the
no-fly zone over Libya ends on 30 September and sees no visible military
results so far. He says that Russia will continue its efforts to find a
peaceful solution.
10. 1624 Serbian parliament calls for peaceful outcome to dispute
between Serbs and Albanians in Kosovo. Video report about the blockade
of Serb areas in Kosovo following an attempt by Kosovan troops to seize
a border point and block cross-border trade by Serbs. Food shortages are
beginning to bite, partly because of Albanian sabotage of crops.
11. 1627 Duma speaker Boris Gryzlov on visit to Slovenia.
12. 1628 Cathedral with links to the Navy restored in Kronshtadt.
13. 1628 Russian successes at World Swimming Championships in Shanghai.

The cleric resigned following accusations of collaborating with government authorities during the Communist regime.
The bishops' conference told Interfax it will refrain from making "hasty conclusions" about his resignation.
"The Church should not become like a crowd shouting 'crucify him'," said Fr. Igor Kovalevsky, general secretary of the Conference of Catholic Bishops in Russia, in an interview with Interfax.
"Despite reasons of some priests to collaborate with special services, their dignity cannot be humiliated. In particular, hasty conclusions and accusations should not be made," he continued.
Fr. Kovalevsky admitted that the collaboration of priests with government authorities "has often been disastrous to the Church and worshipers." However, each case should be considered individually, he insisted.
The priest recalled that the Catholic Church "was oppressed and sometimes persecuted" in some countries in Soviet times. The Church managed to maintain independence in Poland, but the state frequently exerted great pressure on priests as well, he said.

Poster debuts for Frank Miller's Holy Terror
Legendary Entertainment has premiered the poster and print ad for Holy Terror, the long-awaited graphic novel by Frank Miller.
The revenge tale, set for release in September, follows The Fixer, a "Dirty Hairy"-style hero who takes the fight to al Qaeda after his city is target by terrorists. Initially, and famously, conceived as a Batman story, Holy Terror is described as "a no-holds-barred action thriller told in Miller's trademark high-contrast, black-and-white visual style, which seizes the political zeitgeist by the throat and doesn't let go until the last page."
See the full poster below. And don't miss the five-page preview of Holy Terror released last month.
SDCC '11 | A roundup of Saturday's announcements
Three down, one to go … here's a list of the major comics-related announcements made at Comic-Con International in San Diego on Saturday:
• A number of new projects were announced or promoted at Image's Creator-Owned Comics panel, not the least of which is the return of Brian K. Vaughan to comic books. Vaughan will write a book called Saga, which is co-created and drawn by Fiona Staples. Vaughan told CBR that the book is "an epic drama chronicling the life and times of one young family fighting to survive a never-ending war. 100 percent creator-owned. Ongoing. Monthly. Fiona and I are banking issues now."
• Image also announced that Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman is collaborating with Charlie Adlard on a new series of graphic novels called Album. The books will be released roughly 18 months apart, 60 pages long, with different themes each year, with the first being Passenger. It's co-published with Delcourt in France and will be available simultaneously in English and France.
• Jonathan Hickman and Nicky Pitarra will team up for The Manhattan Projects at Image. Hickman is also doing a book called Secret with artist Ryan Godenheim.
SDCC '10 | Legendary announces new titles from Pope, Wagner [UPDATED]
Legendary Comics announced at its panel this afternoon at Comic-Con International that it will publish new projects from Paul Pope and Matt Wagner.
Set for release this holiday season, PulpHope is a more than 200-page retrospective of Pope's career, featuring many pieces that haven't been seen before. A previous edition was published in 2007 by AdHouse Books.
The Tower Chronicles, developed by Wagner with Legendary CEO Thomas Tull, is a supernatural action-adventure about a bounty hunter with a hidden past who, backed by a team of high-tech mercenaries, protects civilians from the things that go bump in the night.
"We are thrilled to be working with Pope and Wagner on these upcoming projects for Legendary Comics," Editor-in-Chief Bob Schreck said in a statement. "Just as our film division works with the best-in-class talent and filmmakers to produce content for the fandom demographic, so too will Legendary Comics move forward on our mandate to publish works from the best in A the industry."
Legendary also will release Frank Miller's Holy Terror in September.
Update: The Hollywood Reporter reports that Simon Bisley will provide artwork for the Tower Chronicles. They also provide additional details on the PulpHope book, calling it "a revamped version of the artist's out-of-print art book titled PulpHope, stripping away 100 pages and throwing in 100 new ones incorporating work Pope has done in the music, toy and clothing spheres, as well as other material."
SDCC '11 | Legendary reveals trailer for Frank Miller's Holy Terror
Legendary Comics, the comic-publishing arm of Legendary Pictures, has revealed a new trailer for Frank Miller's upcoming graphic novel Holy Terror. The project began as a "Batman vs. al-Qaeda" book for DC Comics before Miller eliminated Batman from it in favor of a new character called The Fixer, who you can see in action in the trailer.
The book will be published this September to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
The trailer was revealed by Legendary as the "first of four locks" being opened, and they ask fans to help open additional locks by sharing content on Facebook and Twitter. "This was the first of four locks that will reveal exclusive content throughout the weekend, so be sure to check back regularly. Remember, the more you spread the word, the faster each reveal will be released!"
Frank Miller's Holy Terror to hit stores in September
Rich Johnston and Heidi MacDonald are both reporting that Frank Miller's long-awaited graphic novel Holy Terror will be published this September, the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks to which the book is a response. The project began as a "Batman vs. al-Qaeda" book for DC before Miller, feeling he'd taken the story too far outside of the Batman comfort zone, rejiggered it with an original hero called the Fixer and took it elsewhere. That elsewhere turns out to be Legendary Comics (the publishing subsidiary of the Legendary Pictures film shingle), helmed by former Oni/DC/IDW editor Bob Schreck. This oughta be a pip.

Follow-Up Postings:
Paula, Thanks for the quick responce. It does look like 'Moonshine'. A Futura type growing habit. How old is it? And I do like it. Every picture of 'Moonshine' I have found shows no green reverting with age. It is on my spring list. Stush |
- Posted by brodyjames 5 (My Page) on Sun, Mar 11, 12 at 22:41
Hey, guys! In my experience, "Moonshine" doesn't revert with age. It will darken up in dimmer light. The less light it gets, the darker it gets, so keep it in as bright a spot as possible to keep that beautiful silvery-green glow! Nancy |
Ilovetogrow, nice sans. Picture, I think I have one like that, and was asking for I.D help on the sanseveria plants thread and I think it was narrowed down to sans seafoam or moonshine, if you don't mind can you take a trip to the sans page and check out a picture I posted under " seafoam sans. Thanks in advance. If it is what are growing conditions? Greg |
I've grown this on for awhile as Moonshine. It is a fast grower and i've given at lot of it to friends. Like most sans. it grows in all kinds of light conditions. And as brody said it will green up in low light conditions. |
Greg, There are a lot of different ones out there. I don't think yours is Moonshine. It has Futrua growing habits. Which means shorter fatter leaves. Yours look like a taller slimmer growing kind. But nobody can positively ID one with just a picture. Time will tell how it grows. |
Stush, got it, now that you mentioned it I have seen some that look like mine only a dwarf type, thanks again , Greg |
- Posted by ilovetogrow 8/9 Jax FL (My Page) on Tue, Mar 13, 12 at 18:37
Hi sorry for the delay but I was having computer problems. Greg your sans is different than mine as mine is short and stout and yours is tall. I would have to agree with Laura1 that this sans is Moonshine. Greened up in the house all winter and is now fading outside again. It is not a dark green almost a lime color. Have a great day all, Paula |
