Fiddler On the Roof Information |
About the show:Fiddler on the Roof tickets have been amazingly popular since the original Broadway premiere in 1964, for which it won 9 Tony Awards including Best Musical. It was the first show ever to run for more than 3,000 performances on Broadway and it has since spawned several international productions and an Academy Award-nominated 1971 film adaptation. It is a timeless story with ever-relevant themes, most notably the replacement and evolution of tradition. Its compelling characters and poignant treatment of social issues make it an essential theater experience. Originally directed and choreographed by Broadway's legendary Jerome Robbins, Fiddler's infectious, traditional dancing is both refined and exciting. With a perfect blend of riveting dramatic scenes, impressive spectacle, and a touch of humor, it is no wonder that this show is continually produced all over the world. Check out the Fiddler on the Roof schedule and get your tickets today; this is one tradition you won't want to miss.
Plot Synopsis:At the turn of the twentieth century in the Russian village of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor, Jewish milkman, lives with his wife and five daughters. The villagers have reverence for the traditions of their ancestors and live their lives in the old way, but change is slowly penetrating the community. Yente, the village matchmaker, brings news that the wealthy butcher, Lazar Wolf, wants to marry Tevye's oldest daughter, Tzeitel. But Tzeitel wants to marry her childhood friend, Motel the tailor. After Tevye promises Tzeitel to Lazar Wolf, he eventually relents to the breaking of tradition and allows her to marry Motel, much to Lazar Wolf's chagrin. Meanwhile, a brash, young radical named Perchik arrives and is given shelter in Tevye's home in return for tutoring his youngest daughters. When he falls in love with Tevye's second daughter, Hodel, Tevye once again resists but eventually caves in, allowing the marriage even though it is traditional for a matchmaker to arrange unions. When Tevye's third daughter, Chava, falls in love with a Russian non-Jew, Tevye puts his foot down and refuses to bless the marriage, disowning his daughter when she elopes. While domestic traditions seem to be replaced by modern ways, the residents of Anatevka also endure anti-Jewish violence which threatens their safety and ability to remain in their hometown.

text: I sit here and watch all these stupid love movies where its bliss, everything always works out, high school sweethearts get married and live happily ever after, guy breaks up bad marriage and gets the girl, or whatever...they all end the same...HAPPILY. I want that, I know itll never happen, but there has to be somethin out there better than what Ive got. I mean, how much bitching and whining and arguing can one person take in a 2 year relationship? Everyother day is a fukkin dramatic argument that usually ends in one of us dumping the other. *sigh* Gawd, you know Ive got holes in my wall from this relationship, ive got ulscers *well ok not really but it sounds good* from all the stress, ive probably given my fingers more excercise from clenching my hands than masturbation lately, my vocal cords are being given more exercise than necessary. Gah it sucks.

I want to use wilwood two piston calipers..but the point is im not trying to spend so much on the conversion...if doable...i would rather remove the disc brakes from another car at the junk yard..then install my rotor, and caliper of choice
To use the Wilwood caliper will take either a kit from Wilwood or duplicating the bracket for the caliper yourself. Wilwood used to make some GM-style floating capliers. You can get a kit minus the capilers from a few places like SUmmit and Speedway
The rear disc from a 94-96 Impala SS will bolt on to your housing and uses the internal shoe parking brake. |
Wilwood calipers require Wilwood brackets. The only way to duplicate the bracket is to have one to copy. You could just use a complete rear disc brake system from a 4th gen F body. They have good PBR calipers and you can buy cross drilled rotors for them. They also bolt to your housing ends.
The simplest brackets are the weld-on style
You'll need the rotors, calipers, pads to align the bracket for welding Wilwood Caliper Bracket from Speedway Motors, America's Oldest Speed Shop |
Unfortunately the Impala uses a 5 x 5" bolt circle, the Monte is 5 x 4.75. I don't think there are readily available rotors for the smaller bolt circle that swap onto the Impala backing plates and fit the drum e-brake shoes.
Redrilling the axles and rotors to the small pattern is not bad job. |
Im going to look into the 4th gen f body I hope they will fit..as for the welding...i dont know.if I would want to go that route simply because I dont know how..i just want a good.brake system since I am swapping to a 454 that is why I was leaning towards wilwood
The drum brakes on that rear end are larger than most cars. There are some early Camaro and Chevelle people who want to swap to the larger drums, so you might be able to sell those brakes and get a little money out of them. I think you have the 11 inch drums and the early Camaro and Chevelle had 9 inch drums.

to the o/p if you can.. find a 78-81 t/a with 4wdb get the e brake cables, the master and proportioning valve, the clappers and maybe the rotors(if they look turnable), the backing plate/clapper mount
the clappers are for rebuild or cores.. that be the cheapest... also same year caddy's(reardrive) you can still get everything new.. rotors/clappers at your local parts house. allong with the master... the p/p valve and backingplate/clapper mount you'll have to get from ames performance/yearone or other sources.. the e brake cables.. you can get from local jobbers or resto houses good luck fyi some 81 camaros had the ws6 rear disc also.. not many but some |
Hey guys sorry for the late reply...I was wondering...is a ten bolt rear end from a 1990's blazer and a 2000 camaro ls1 a 8.5? I have been searching all over craigslist for a rear end that already has the posi and the disc brakes but i am not sure if they fit my application...

Hello all!
I'm both happy and sad to announce that we are making a temporary 2nd guild - "How I Met Your Mesmer [CBSi]", where we're inviting all of those who can't make it into Lincoln Force for now due to the guild system being fuckin' broken (IE Video games y'all).
Guild leaders are the illustrious
(our resident engineer specialist) and (ex-whiskey media intern). This will expand if it needs to.The list they shall be working down are the ones posted in my other thread, here.
If your friend is in this new guild and you want to move over, message "Actaru" and "Morang Tong".
ED: This guild will be phased into the main Lincoln Force guild over the coming weeks, as shit gets less screwy.
ED 2: This seems to work!!
@Dourin said:
If you get the invite, but can't seem to accept it, try logging out to character select, then back in, then accept. There may be a delay after that, but you should join the guild shortly thereafter.

Inmate settles putrid-food suit
Milwaukee County sheriff's officials are crying foul, after an insurance company settled a lawsuit from a jail inmate over the food he was being served.
Sheriff David Clarke was hoping to have a trial this week so a judge could back up his decision to serve what prisoner Terrance Prude called a rancid mixture known as Nutraloaf. But sheriff's inspector Edward Bailey said an insurer for the company that makes Nutraloaf settled the case at the last minute.

Top Healthy Recipes of 2012
by Healthy Eats in Healthy Recipes, January 2, 2013
The numbers are in for the top recipes of 2012 and the results reveal that chicken continues to be a winning lean protein choice — with fish not far behind — plus a few comfort food favorites made the list, like macaroni and cheese and breakfast burritos. What will the new year bring? Can we expect to see more kale and chard on our plates alongside the chicken?
10. Apple Muffins: Ellie Krieger replaces butter with applesauce in these muffins which doesn't just make them more nutritious, it also makes them extra moist.
9. Fish Tacos With Chipotle Cream: Pile marinated fish, cabbage, corn and chipotle-spiked yogurt sauce into corn tortillas for an instant fiesta.
8. Herbed Quinoa: Giada DeLaurentiis dresses this quick-cooking, protein-packed grain with a simple herb-and-lemon vinaigrette for a super simple, pairs-with-anything side dish.
7. Three-Cheese Macaroni: This comfort food classic is made with muenster, cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, plus steamed cauliflower for an extra serving of veggies.
6. Chicken Saltimbocca (above): Giada's stuffed chicken sounds decadent, but the calories in this classic Italian chicken dish are kept low by using small amounts of boldly-flavored ingredients like prosciutto and Parmesan cheese.
5. Breakfast Burrito: Start your day with a veggie-packed, hand-held breakfast: whole-wheat tortillas stuffed with scrambled eggs, peppers and onions, beans and cheese.
4. Chicken Parmesan: Baking chicken cutlets instead of frying them helps keep the calories down in this Italian favorite — and it still gets covered in sauce and mozzarella cheese like the original.
3. Chicken Piccata: A normally decadent wine and butter-based meal gets a healthy makeover.
2. Crispy Baked 'Fried' Chicken: The secret to an extra-crispy coating on un-fried chicken: coat the chicken pieces in buttermilk and crushed cornflakes before baking.
1. Salmon Baked in Foil: The #1 healthy recipe of 2012 also happens to be the easiest — baking salmon in foil with herbs and tomatoes ensures that it will come out moist and flavorful, and with zero mess to clean up after cooking.
Have you made any of these recipes? Let us know about your favorites!

BKE Payton Boot Stretch Jean 5 5
Favorite jeans! I have had two pair of these jeans now. So glad I could find them online. They are so comfortable! They do stretch out a bit after having them on so if you like them tight, buy a size smaller than you normally would. April 14, 2014
Loved them buttttttt. I absolutely loved these jeans so much. They fit perfect, was a little loose like i like them I felt like they made me look smaller and they was so comfortable. Everyone liked them. The down side I had them maybe a month and wore them maybe 5 times and could tell they was coming apart the next day when i went to wear them i had them on 5 minutes went to set down the whole crotch ripped like probably 3 inches. Its very disappointing when you pay so much for jeans and wear them 5 times and they rip they are extremely poorly made. June 13, 2013
Love these jeans! I really like the stitching on these jeans, and they are so comfortable! Very slimming as well. April 10, 2013
Great Fit! This jeans really fit relaxed and look like they've been painted on. I get all kinds of complements on these jeans. My husband says they look like yoga pants and I told him they fit like them too! I recently tried the Paytons and now I will never wear another cut. These jeans are great. I love the stretch they have. I've worn them all day and to me, they haven't stretched out yet.... If you've got curves these are the jeans for you. December 20, 2012
Fit is good for Curvy people I love these jeans, I am thicker through my thighs and its always hard to find jeans that fit right. These jeans are great. The only reason i am not giving these jeans a 5 is because they stretch out. They do run big so i bough these 1 size smaller than normal. They fit great until i wore them for a few hours. I wish i would have bought the next size down. December 9, 2012

Although its nearly July, the Mississippi Rivers high waters have continued to make waves in the area. Winona and the surrounding area have received a lot of rain in the past few weeks, causing the Mississippi River to rise and the ground to become saturated with water, explained Dan Jones, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in La Crosse.
Since we are now so well saturated, any additional rainfall will run off to creeks, rivers, and streams, Jones said. This run-off will play a bigger role in the next couple of days. Any heavier rain is going to run off pretty quickly, potentially causing flash flood conditions, he explained.
We have tributaries that are a little bit more flashy than others around here, Jones added. All of those tributaries end up in the Mississippi, adding to the already flowing water, Jones said.
The Mississippi River is discharging at 72,800 cubic feet per second (CFS); the normal discharge for this date is 38,500 CFS, explained Farley Haase, lock and dam regulator for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
As of Tuesday morning, the Mississippi River at Winona was at 9.29 feet and forecast to rise to 10.6 feet, Haase explained. Action stage will not be reached until 11 feet and minor flood stage is at 13 feet, he added. The water level would have to be considerably higher to cause any issues in the regular functioning of the river, Haase said.
The Mississippi River may still be functioning, but the added water this summer has resulted in the displacement of wildlife. There are animal displacements that are occurring along the river, explained Mary Stefanski, Winona district manager of the Upper Mississippi National Fish and Wildlife Refuge. "People are more likely to see raccoons, deer, and other animals inland, as they are being pushed farther out by the river, Stefanski said. This tends to happen every year; its just dragging out longer than normal this year, Stefanski added.
The National Fish and Wildlife Refuge earlier closed down an area of the river, Mertes Slough, due to vulnerable nesting of animals such as the blue heron, Stefanski said. The river height has made the nests more vulnerable to human disturbance, through kayaking and canoeing, Stefanski added.
According to Stefanski, with all of this extra water in the river, users should be aware that the current is fast and it is carrying debris; people should be watching for floating logs, branches, and other debris.
All of the rain lately has clearly increased the height of the river for this time of year, but closer to the end of the week things should begin drying out, Jones added.

Appearance: Straw gold. Fine and persistent mousse. Nose: Surprisingly earthy and rich; warm pastries. A little green apple note in the background. Almost a hint of soy sauce. This is a very distinctive champagne indeed! Palate: Fruity yet quite savoury. Bready and yeasty, with notes tangy apples. A strong whack of lemon sherbet, elderflower. Meaty, full-bodied, Hoi Sin. Finish: Fades on those hoi sin, umami-rich notes, a little fruit lingers too. Overall: Fantastic stuff!
Please enter your details to make it easier for us to help you further.
This really does beat most Champagnes I've tried in the £60+ bracket, this is just an insanely low price for the quality. From now on it's either Dom Pérignon, it's going to be this. Well done the Masters of Malt!

I have to admit, in my ignorance, I'd never heard of Cattier. I bought a bottle to treat my wife, but poured it out of site so she wouldn't think me cheap. She didn't, she assumed it was a £100+ bottle of champagne. Now that i also know it's heritage, i proudly pour away in full view of all!Just delicious, I'll never spend more than £30 for a bottle of champagne while this stuff is available.

That's your answer?
You just say it didn't happen? Wishing it away?
There were no menaces, there was no bribery and I never said there was...
Such tactics were not needed....but Berlusconi had the girl released by using the power of his elected office
Otherwise how did she go free?
The police chief in questions says Berlusconi told him to do it and released her to a member of his political party
Yet you say it didn't happen...strange.

- The GTO-504EZ four-channel model features 4x50 watts RMS (640 watts max). It has selectable high-pass/low-pass active crossovers and bridgeable channel pairs for total flexibility. Use this amplifier to upgrade from four channels of built-in head-unit power in an aftermarket system, as a building block in a growing system design or, by bridging both channel pairs, as a more powerful amplifier for premium component speakers.
- Easy setup and adjustment of input gain
- The GTO-504EZ amplifier includes an input-level switch, a setup CD with test signals and LED indicators to tell you when the setting is correct. Simply set the switch, turn the input-level knob and watch for the green light that indicates that the setup is perfect. That's all there is to it. There's a reason why the amplifier's model number contains EZ. This feature significantly reduces installation time and delivers excellent results.
- Wired or auto-sensing remote turn-on
- JBL engineers have configured the JBL GTO-504EZ amplifier to turn on with a wired input (as in aftermarket systems) or with an auto-sensing circuit that activates whenever the amp detects an audio signal. The auto-sensing feature is helpful when you're upgrading OEM audio systems that don't include a remote trigger wire. It's easily defeated by a switch when you're using a wired remote turn-on input.
- Input signal up to 15 volts (line-level or speaker-level)
- The GTO-504EZ amplifier accepts a wide range of inputs up to 15 volts with line-level or speaker-level signals. Using RCA-to-bare-wire adapters included with the amplifier, you can connect to virtually any OEM or aftermarket audio system. The end result is an amplifier that works with the widest range of cars on the road.
- Built-in, variable active crossovers
- Active 12-decibel/octave low-pass crossovers offer variable filter points between 40Hz and 280Hz. You can select high-pass (HP) filtering, low-pass (LP) filtering or OFF. Importantly, all filter points on the adjustment dial match the silkscreened frequency points on the amplifier chassis – a feature that not all amps provide.
- Built-in, variable bass boost
- The GTO-504EZ provides a range of bass boost from 0 decibels to +12 decibels, centered at 45Hz. This is a useful feature for restoring some bass that may be limited by the low-frequency response of certain speakers in the system – or to enhance a particular range of bass that the speakers already produce well.
- Bridgeable channel pairs
- Pairs of the GTO-504EZ system amplifier's main channels can be bridged into a single, more powerful channel. This setup is useful for flexible audio system designs in a growing syste or for full-range speakers in a system that needs more power.
- Automatic thermal and low-impedance protection
- Amplifier protection is just like insurance; you hope you'll never need it, but it's sure nice to have when you do. Thermal protection keeps the GTO-504EZ system amplifier from overworking itself to the point of premature failure. Low-impedance protection keeps the amplifier safe from any speaker or wiring failures that result in short circuits.

Smart ICT 1 and 2
- Virtualization of ICT resources
- A major trend in controlling the overall growth in data center footprints
- Pooling assets such as computing, Network and Storage, where utilization is low, so they can be used across the enterprise and beyond
- Virtualization represents a radical rethinking of how to deliver data center services
- Virtualization could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Cooling
- ICT vendors are actively working to improve cooling technique efficiencies
- Cooling has now become a significant competitive differentiator
- Technologies and solutions are now available to detect where within the data center temperatures are running high, and to direct cooling to those areas
- Consolidation, Cloud Computing and Software as a Service (SaaS)
- There is a significant trend towards consolidation that will help in dealing with the existing or legacy data center impact.
- Organizational attitudes are changing as costs of operating a data center surpass the initial investment
- Companies now have a number of options for computing services, which shift costs from the enterprise to an external provider, who could potentially deliver these capabilities with economies of scale and at higher energy efficiency
- SaaS business model allows companies to access key enterprise applications, such as customer relationship management databases, or collaboration tools, via a web browser, with no need to host their own data center facilities
- Advanced telepresence applications, currently in the early stage of adoption, will have a significant impact in highly-distributed service industry environments, in both the private and public sectors.
Smart Grids Summit
- Smart Grids bring together two worlds: energy and ICT, in a unique setting designed to identify how they can create new opportunities and drive innovation. This event will do more than explore how energy suppliers can become more efficient in the transmission and distribution of power. Telco 2.0 has built a rich understanding of how telecoms operators and IT players are meeting the challenges and opportunities brought by disruptive internet technologies. With this event, Telco 2.0 brings this understanding to the energy industry, along with insights into the implications for existing and new players.
Telepresence & Unified Communication
- As physical travel becomes more expensive and less efficient, smart business leaders are moving toward the puck and improving their ability to connect with their partners, vendors, and customers using telepresence and videoconferencing. They are leveraging telepresence as integral part of R&D, partner collaboration, and even the sales and customer engagement process to reduce pollution, cut costs, improve productivity and aggressively accelerate their position in new markets. Creating a telepresence capability also delivers a disaster recovery capability against terrorism, war, health emergencies, and/or economic/currency collapse. Discover the ROI and benefits in connecting your company to the rest of your eco-system globally.
Case Studies
- Major corporations share their experience and outcomes on how Smart ICT can be incorporated into an overall company strategy. They will address a number of topics, including the planning process and getting a program started, gathering baseline information and other critical data, goal setting and using metrics to generate momentum for initiatives. They will share their successes and lessons learned.
Expert Points of View
- Some of the most respected leaders, consultants and authors share their point of view on topics as compelling as:
- Why most Sustainability initiatives are Shortsighted, and what it takes to change that

What's Behind the Right's Current Twitter Advantage + Using #TCOT vs. No Hashtags Whatsoever
Practicing Politics in the Twitter Era: If we are to speak of the age of online politics -- and I am not certain that we should -- let's say we've lived through the Blog Era (2001-04), the YouTube Era (2005-08) and now we are in the Twitter Era (2008-?). This screen shot of a blog post at Media Matters (of all places) juxtaposing tweets from Newt Gingrich and Matt Cooper -- proof alone that everyone in Washington is using Twitter -- provides a useful snapshot of the how Twitter works alongside the blogosphere (rumors of its death still exaggerated) in moving political messages online:
So the Right had a vibrant 'sphere in the post-9/11 Warblogging Period, which drifted after the 2004 election, as frustrated soon-to-be-ex-Pajamas Media bloggers can tell you. The Left owned the YouTube era, which happened to coincide, not coincidentally, with President Bush's second term. Their political blog infrastructure was developed largely on the participation of bloggers and blog readers, not anyone using Twitter yet, most of the time because Twitter did not exist or see any significant usage until SXSW 2007. (You know who I can't find on Twitter? MoveOn.)
For at least a year now, the Right again has been leading the way on an Internet-based communication platform. So far it's to organize for Conservatism somewhat broadly as a unifying cause. Top Conservatives on Twitter is not quite a MoveOn for the Right -- a whispered-of but ultimately mythical animal not unlike the "Party-in-a-laptop" idea popular with some Neoliberals -- but it could have more value as a list than Gingrich's own Drill Here, Drill now efforts and even the (also short-time) #dontgo message it spawned last August. These new conservative projects are often built around Twitter itself. Sometimes this results in really annoying tweets, but at this point the right is doing more interesting things in this space. Twitter is smaller than Facebook, but makes up for it in volume of press hits (hopefully someone with Nexis can back this up for me) and news reports that its traffic is about to go all hockey-stick. Maybe it will go Galt as well.
Conservatives also have other, much older infrastructure whose blogging component counts a few successes but still relies on decidedly Web 1.0 websites, and so hasn't taken as big a hit in the Great Blog Crash of 2008-09. And like companies of the dot com crash (including Google itself), the concepts and websites that clawed their way out of the rubble did not and will not bring back substantial returns in the short run. Twitter, by its sheer simplicity, is kind of a Long Tail product in that we can (and often seem to actually do) use it in spare moments between the day, which means its audience could approach that of e-mail (especially since, you know, you need an e-mail account to join Twitter). Either could build that kind of reach, depending on who experiments more through the rest of the arbitrary era proper.
Using #TCOT vs. No Hashtags Whatsoever:
According to Internet marketing blog Hubspot, the right's #TCOT momentum means it vastly outnumbers the hashtags left-leaning Twitter users and bloggers... er, aren't listed as using, not here at least. Hmm. So which hashtags do the left use?
- Pause for dramatic effect.
Turns out the left-verse doesn't do hashtags at all, that I could see from checking these accounts over the weekend:
- markosmoulitsas
- jedlewison
- matthewstoller
- ttagaris
- janehamsher
- Atrios
- ezraklein
- glenngreenwald
- KagroX
- openleft
- mmfa
- owillis
- mattyglesias
My question for the Left is whether the port side of the Twitterverse will adopt the same habit of hashtags that moves stories -- and if it does, whether it will even be led by the Kos-Greenwald-Marshall-Hamsher-Klein-Stoller-Yglesias Netroots movement. (Note: In the comments at Blog P.I. a fellow Twittizen points out there is a website collecting progressive hashtags: Tweetleft. And as she observes, organized hashtag use lies beyond "'the usual' accounts.")
And my question for the Right is whether they know any of the Top 5 Conservatives on Twitter, because I haven't got a clue.
Benchmark note: As of Sunday afteroon, Markos Moulitsas (2,411) has 7,288 fewer followers than John Culberson (9,699).
Adapted from a post at Blog P.I.
End of the YouTube Era?
What inspires your claim that the "YouTube era" of politics ended last year?
other viewpoints
I think you are better than this post. Just beacuse cable news is Twitter-crazy doesn't mean everyone else is. Alexa shows that traffic spiked in Jan and Feb but growth has slowed to near stagnation in March. And more generally, I would question the wisdom of holding up 140-word-limit microblogging as a central piece of the right's online resurgence. gopastroturf.blogspot.com
Twitter Is The New Britney
a once hot object now the subject of derision.
It doesn't matter to me, whether you're a liberal or a conservative, a celebrity or a joe-the-plumber, what you are eating, kissing, or farting. I'm just not that in to you.
Of course conservatives love Twitter
There's so much less depth. ;)
Look there!!
.. It's a flashy new Tech Object that is going to lead the GOP out of the wilderness.
Kos and Eschaton and Josh Marshall feature in-depth stories that drive news cycles, they have efforts by citizen journalists with deeply held convictions and deep wells of knowledge or presence, you know, substance.
There've been several discussions here that demanded a read to the very last post.
Twitter? Was Koolz for a few weeks, then you just get bored with the lack of any there, there.
Kiinda like the Conservative Movement.
indepth stories are Sunday's.
I was
..comparing them to Twitter. Duh.
You should visit those sites more often, so I don't have to count you as suspicious.
Just as an example, in today's effort at "Citizen Journalism" at KOS, there's a must-read by one of the more regular KOS contributors called "Reforming the Big Three". In depth analysis, excellent points, illuminating the issue with graphs and charts I was not aware of. Recommend it.
And Atrios' recent continuing series on the implications and directions of inner-city mass transit and light rail vs. suburban beltways and highways has really made me me think about the topic, and encouraged over 3,000 posts on the site in the last 5 or 6 weeks.
Methinks that anyone who believes that twittering is going to be a major game-changer for the Right is looking for signs of hope.
you have got to read Nate over on 538
his comments on GM are great. ;-)
Anyone else getting sick and tired of this Washington inside baseball crap? Hey for all of you who live in Washington and think that you're freaking Twitter follower numbers matter wake up. These early adopters will listen to you on any new format of communication.
Yea twitter is cool, but twitter is not the answer. Twitter is a tool. Tools are not solutions, tools are ways that we can help to solve the problem but are not the solutions to the problem. If you think that, then you too are a tool.
Not to put too fine a point on it, Shawn
...or point out the obvious either, of course, but if you're "sick and tired of this Washington baseball crap" then one must ask one's self precisely why you would wish to frequent a political website?
Hopefully the "zing" was meant sarcastically, because something effective would be to point out how Cooper and those supporting his tweet are twits who aren't being logical. Twitter might help you there, but the message would be gone in a few minutes so why not just do things the old fashioned way?
I guess sometimes
Sometimes I wonder.
But seriously I thought this forum would be a bit more broad by trying to take conservatives from across the country to share ideas about how to rebuild the party, talk about what is working in the grassroots and how state candidates are doing.
Instead I get updates on how many twitter friends some washington twit has.
Most of the RNC's and the parties problem come from inside washington dopes who haven't really worked on a campaign in years and I thought we'd get away from this in this forum.
LoL, fair enough ;-)
Perhaps I can use the topic as an opportunity speak to both your grassroots interest and to WB's inquiry about whether anyone knows who the Top 5 Conservatives on Twitter are.
I started using Twitter around and about a year ago after Soren Dayton made his name and Twitter household words. If you're not familiar with the story, just google Soren+Dayton+Twitter+flap - but I digress.
In the summer of 2008, Nancy Pelosi shut down the House of Representatives - literally - while the Republicans were still debating the Energy Bill (the bill that prompted 80% of Americans polled to indicate that they wanted to "Drill Here, Drill Now" - ancient history, of course, but significant at the time). This prompted a lot of Twitter users, most significantly Republican House members on Twitter, to begin using the hashtag #dontgo to aggregate tweets about the "Republican Revolution" aka the "Don't Go, Congress" as the House Republicans spent their 2008 summer break in the people's House continuing the energy debate after Pelosi turned off the lights and the C-SPAN cameras. Video started going up on QIK from Culberson's Apple iPhone, and average people like me got to hang out with the inside baseball crowd as well as our representatives. There was a wee bit of a movement that sprung from these interactions on Twitter, and Kristen Soltis posted a good article about why it was significant here.
I can pretty much draw a straight line from the #dontgo movement to the #teaparty movement. #dontgo was the first time I'd ever in my life seen actual Republicans, wearing suits and polo shirts, actually out protesting and demonstrating against Nancy Pelosi's iron-fisted anti-energy policy. In the streets no less. These were real honest-to-God grassroots people, and for a real hoot you can check out the ones in Michigan.
As for the top conservatives on Twitter, I can talk about a few of them whom I know virtually if not literally. #1 Nansen Malin is a dedicated member of the Washington State GOP, so she plays Washington State inside baseball of the Left Coast variety. #2 Brooks Bayne is a Los Angeles entrepreneur and tech guy who's also a conservative activist and helped organize the L.A. Tea Party grassroots protest. Brooks' greatest claim to fame is his great sense of humor along with an unflagging willingness to politely debate the leftists who used to try to overtake the hashtags with a combination of hostile, rude, ugly or just plain irritating tweets. #3 Bill Austin is an Arizona systems engineer, all around tech guy and grassroots activist. #4 Rick Abbott is a Kentuckian, tech guy and grassroots activist. Nansen's the only one I know in the top 5 who's actually a Republican Reptile party official. I don't know #5 Scott McKay yet, but #6 Radioblogger is Duane "Generalissimo" Patterson, producer of the Hugh Hewitt radio talk show which I listen to every afternoon/evening around this time in the 3-6 pm slot on the Left Coast. So all the top 5 conservatives on Twitter are from the West and the Midwest, all are grassroots activists and all represent "average center/right people" and not "the politicians" in one fashion or another. This, in a nutshell, is why Twitter matters.
I created a link for you to use in Tweetgrid if you'd like to view all the tweets for #tcot, #hhrs (Hugh Hewitt Radio Show), #dontgo and #teaparty to see what people are saying in case you'd like to follow any of them or just follow the threads in general, here. Hopefully it works...and I hope you don't need a Twitter account to use it - if I'm wrong, ah well I tried.
Cheers to all my old #dontgo colleagues, and Happy #Teaparty season to all my new ones. If I can help you out or you just want to say hi, you can tweet me on Twitter any time right here.
Use of technology in politics...
The use of technology in politics has become a major part of the game. Politicians all over the world have use it extensively for their election campaigns. The famous Obama blog is now a glittering example in this regard now Twitter is getting famous and useful.
Twitter would definately be
Twitter would definately be the neest big thing in the online marketing sector. In fact mnay people are already using twitter for marketing their business online.

>> Last night, Alber Elbaz pronounced: "Some days I feel like a piano: kind of short, always in black & white, always expected to produce music." And produce music he did when it comes to his Lanvin Hearts H&M collection, which is in stores on Nov. 20. The collection runs the gamut from $9.95 for lipstick to $349 for a coat, with shoes, sunglasses, and of course, plenty of dresses, in between. In the gallery, we've got Irina Lazareanu in the lookbook; Natasha Poly, Hannelore Knuts, Tati Cotliar, Jane Schmitt, and Garance Dumont in the full ad campaign; plus individual images and prices for each of the 48 women's items in the collection.

Here is your link on Whitney Live at Madison Square Garden in 1991. Supposedly one of her best shows ever caught on audio. If that doesnt work, I have a back up link for you to click on right here. Download away. Great plays on her songs (Singing Still In Love with Didn't We Almost Have It All), her comments in-between songs and interactions with the crowd… her voice at its best. Been in the collection for a while now, and I've been listening to it a lot, realizing that Whitney kinda dominated 80s Pop. Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, and Whitney. Wow. Feeling old.
Also; To summarize and add to the Whitney rant:
*Cissy's letter to Whitney. Wow.
*'Didn't We Almost Have It All' is Whitney Houston's best song; Scientific Fact. Not debatable. Somewhat discussable. Proven on the record youre probably download right now.
*Man, I was a fanboy for her and I didn't really realize it. I was cheering her on even when I didn't think I was. That voice will do that to you.
*This shit has me emotionally exhausted. For several reasons. Some of you know exactly why. Not only do I miss Whitney, its got me thinking about my future in this industry… and things I have to prep for.
*We really need to treat our musicians/entertainers better. Notice I didn't say celebrity, I said MUSICIAN/ENTERTAINER. They are two completely different things that get entangled often, due to fame and the media getting in the way, using a persons image and fame to gain ratings and sales. If you want to run Kim Kardashian's name into the ground, okay. Not cool, but thats what the talentless slore is around for (forgive me). I can tell you right now from personal experience: most REAL musicians dont want the fame and celebrity. Maybe the fortune (LoL), but not the fame. Most motherfuckers just wanna play whatever instrument it is they play for you. Above all, they are human. Probably with more feelings and intelligence than you. Lay the fuck off.
*To add to that, if you booed Whitney at the 1989 Soul Train Awards, may your soul burn in hell.
*Also, I don't give a fuck if this woman was a bi-sexual transvestite she-man with 27 eating disorders and cocaine shooting from her vagina as she rode over a rainbow on a magical unicorn. She will always be Whitney Houston, and she is DOCUMENTED as having one of the greatest chest voice, melismas, vibrato, range and overall voice in modern history. Fuck what you think.
*If you are assuming that Whitney died of a drug overdose, then I get to assume you have Anal Herpes and Zombie AIDS until you can prove different.
*Respect the dead. I understand your mad at Whitney because you feel like she threw away her talent, you didn't like her, or you just dont like Black people. Thats fine, you psycho. Just respect the dead. If you dont think your words will get back to you in some fashion, I'll just let you continue being miserable and let you figure that one out.
*There are morons who are mad because New Jersey's governer lowered flags to half staff in order to honor her. Most mean, racist people claim her to be a crackhead when in reality, she gave about $75 million dollars to education, housing programs and other social programs in New Jersey. New Jersey's largest hospital holds their largest Children's ICU ward. It is called the Whitney Houston Childrens ICU. She gave $25 Million to them alone. She also donated every penny in sales she ever made *off her singing the Star Spangled Banner to Combat Vets from the first Gulf War, then again for families of 9-11. So lets not act like she didn't do good things while she was here.
*I hate you all.
Anyway, share with your friends, and enjoy.

iPhone buyers guide
There are a lot of decisions involved when it comes to buying or upgrading to a new phone, even a new iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus. 4.7- or 5.5-inch model? Silver, gold, or space gray finish? 16GB, 64GB, or 128GB storage capacity? There's never been more to choose from! Then there's when to buy and where, and host of other small but important things to consider, including, what do you do with your old phone when your hot new one arrives?
Enter iMore's 2014 iPhone buyers guide. If you need help deciding what to buy, we've got your back. And if you've already decided, just bookmark, email, Facebook, or Tweet this so we can help your friends and family and you can get on with enjoying your new iPhone!
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus buyers guide podcast
Rather watch or listen than read? Not a problem. We have the complete iPhone buyers guide available as video podcast on YouTube and an audio podcast on RSS or iTunes!
Should you upgrade to the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus?
When new iPhones are introduced one of the toughest decisions to make is whether or not to upgrade to the latest and the greatest. If money is no object, it won't matter. If you're due an upgrade on contract, it comes down to whether or not the new features in the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus are compelling enough to be worth $200 or $300 or more to you. If you're not due an upgrade, or if you don't buy on contract, then that decision escalates to $650, $750, or more. So what are the pros and cons of upgrading to the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, and when does the cost get overwhelmed by the value? Let's take a look...
Should you get an iPhone 6 or Android, BlackBerry, or Windows Phone?
Apple has released the brand new, top-of-the-line, flagship iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. But is either of them the right phone for you? While everyone here at iMore certainly believes the iPhone is absolutely the best phone for most people, most of the time, we're lucky that every major platform now has one or more great phones for us to choose from as well. The iPhone may have the best overall user experience, the highest quality apps and games, the widest range of services, the biggest selection of accessories, and the best customer support, but there are also things the iPhone doesn't offer that other phones do, like physical keyboards, high power cameras, digitizers, or simply no Apple logo anywhere near them. So, how do you know the iPhone is for you?
What iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus storage size should you get: 16GB vs. 64GB vs. 128GB?
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus come in three different storage options — 16GB, 64GB, and 128GB. Choosing between them is one of the hardest decisions for most iPhone buyers. Camera and video capabilities keep improving, App Store apps are getting larger, and the functionality of our iPhones keeps getting better. All of this comes at the price of storage space. This is why choosing a storage size that matches your particular use case is so important. The last thing you want to do is get the dreaded out of space error after only a few months of owning your new iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus. Luckily that's where iMore comes in! From start to finish, we can help you choose the most cost effective storage option based on how you use your iPhone!
What color iPhone 6 should you get: Silver, gold, or space gray?
Color is one of the most visually distinctive — and personal — things about a new iPhone, which makes it one of the most important choices you'll have to make. Originally there was only one color, aluminum and black, but Apple eventually went to black and white, and now they're offering three choices for their high-end iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus: silver and gold, silver and white, and space gray and black. If you're on the fence about which color you should get, here's what you should consider.
What iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus carrier should you choose?
Once you've decided you're getting a new iPhone 6 Plus or iPhone 6, and picked your model, capacity, and color, you still need to choose your carrier. Apple announced $299 on a two-year plan for the 16 GB iPhone 6 Plus, and $199 on contract for the 16 GB iPhone 6, and it's safe to assume North Americans carriers will stay in line with that. Other carriers...? Well, we'll see. So which carrier should you go with? We've chewed through the plans and coverage, and here's what we've found!
- U.S. carriers: Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile or Sprint?
- Canadian carriers: Rogers, Bell, or TELUS?
- U.K. carriers: Three, O2, EE, or Vodafone: Which UK iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus carrier should you choose?
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus insurance: Should you buy AppleCare or something else?
Many new iPhone owners find themselves wondering whether AppleCare+ is worth it or not. More importantly, is AppleCare+ the best option when it comes to protecting your iPhone. When getting a new iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus that's a decision you'll need tomake. Like any other kind of insurance, iPhone insurance is far from one size fits all. So if you aren't exactly sure what type of warranty you need, we can help you decide what best suits your personal situation.
How to sell your old iPhone so you can buy the iPhone 6!
If you're itching to buy a brand new iPhone 6 the minute it hits store shelves, one of the best ways to pay for it is to sell your old iPhone. No matter what price point you're going to end up paying for your new iPhone, the proceeds from selling your old one definitely help lessen the impact. Whether you've got an iPhone 4 that desperately needs replacing or something even newer, we can guide you through all the steps you should take in order to get top dollar for your current iPhone.

iPhone buyers guide
I have a Nexus 5 and really like the size plus the notification light so I'm trying to decide if I want the 6 plus. I can't really go back down (very small amount) to the regular 6 so the 6 plus would have to be it. I thought the Note 3 was big, but the 6 plus appears to be bigger, at least in height.
I usually get a new iPhone each year. So, I would only keep the standard Apple Care. I do fear iPhones are prone to theft though. So, what would I do to protect myself?
Sent from the iMore App
Just ordered my iPhone 6 from the apple store app! They are going quick guys! Ordered the space grey 64gb model! I think the 4.7 size will be perfect for me! Used the htc one m8 for a couple months and I am comfortable with that size fir me 5.5 might just be to big! But of course that's just me! Also decided to buy it outright as well! Did the math between this and in upgrade here in canada and in the long run it will be actually cheaper for me to do the outright purchase!
I ordered my 6 at 02:30 PT (good that I'm on Eastern time!), from the iOS Apple Store app, no problems. RENE: Here's a good topic for the next story. What I would like to know is, in the next couple of years - what are Apple's plans for the 4-inch size? I know a lot of people resist the trend toward bigger phones, so now that the 5S/5C are bottom-of-the-line, for 2015, are they planning on introducing new phones in the 4-inch size? Or are they going to end up with solely 4.7 to 5.5-inch sizes? Are they hoping that the Apple Watch will provide a path to small-form-factor device access that will answer the "I want a small phone" market?
I was decided to take 6+, but now having second thoughts. It's really big phone, my main use for iphone is comunication, messangers, Spotify, so larger battery means more music, but larger phone means harder to use one hand when typing. I just hope 6+ is not that wide and sits nicely in avarage hand. I have some friends who took big Samsung Notes and they regret since they're too big and not very comfortable to carry. IPhone 6 is so light and slim, it's perfect comunication device, but I'm still tempted by higher ppi, better battery, and software enhancement.
I ordered a 6+ and a 6.
I need to see them side by side and get a sense for the size. I plan on returning the one I don't like. I've used a note 3 before and while I loved it for movies, tv, and reading while travelling etc... It just seemed too big as a daily work phone (conf calls, emails, texts, etc...)
Sh*t I know I'm going to end up keeping both lol

No one seems to be bringing up the storagage space, 16gb...in 2014?! Another extra 100 for storage and I have to pay $400 for a 64gb 6 plus??? Come on apple. That is truly ridiculous. I want the 6 plus too and been dying to switch back to the iPhone but, seriously, I don't want another Samsung but I need more space than that for that amount. Just an honest rant. I'm sure some could relate.
I have a question that I can't find a definitive answer from someone who actually held the phone (Rene looking at you). Does the iPhone 6 wobble when it is put flat on a table? I have seen countless articles stating this as a fact only to read on and find out that this person did not actually hold the phone and is only making an assumption based on the lens. It seems a logical assumption, but an assumption none the less. And if so, how noticeable is it. This is absolutely not a deal breaker for me, I already ordered a 5.5 for my wife and a 4.7 for me. Just wanted to know.
I'm gonna play the waiting game and wait to the initial wave passes (unless I somehow miraculously hit the Lottery) before I jump the gun and upgrade from my blue 32gb iPhone 5c. I ended up settling for the 5c last year after many attempts from my carrier, Best Buy, WalMart, RadioShack, and Apple.com failed to snag a 64gb 5s in Space Gray.
At the moment, I'm currently eyeing a 64gb iPhone 6Plus in Space Gray. Here's to hoping in a next couple of months once, all of the fanfare dies down some I can reward myself with an early birthday/xmas gift and snag my 6Plus.
I cant afford none of them. Here from Bangladesh, its quit impossible to get one. But I love reading the buyer guide. I wish I could buy one. :-(

For anyone interested, i know someone who works at apple, about a week ago i worked on there computer... any who i found plans for an apple point and shoot camera not an iPhone but an apple camera... no i won't divulge anymore information but i assume this will somehow play with the watch in the future

You know,i can do all experiment with my Iphone 6 ,because i got iphone 6 at no cost from my wallet from below link i found in youtube video description
as Apple giving away iphone 6 to only residents of USA but valid email submission required:-
If I want to get the 128GB iPhone 6 Plus on Sprint's "iPhone for Life" program, is it $300 down, or an additional $12.50 per month for the lease?
I have a Nexus 5 and really like the size plus the notification light so I'm trying to decide if I want the 6 plus. I can't really go back down (very small amount) to the regular 6 so the 6 plus would have to be it. I thought the Note 3 was big, but the 6 plus appears to be bigger, at least in height.
I think that the six + is a little too big for my hands, so I'm just staying with the regular six. Hopefully the iphone 7 won't be much bigger!! D:

You don't just get one look with the Nivo Slider. Uh uh. This incredible WordPress plugin comes with a built-in theme chooser to let you pick and choose from the awesome collection of pre-built themes that are included!
- Gorgeous Galleries
WordPress has a built-in image gallery but it's, well, less than stellar. It gets the job done, sure, but it's pretty darn boring. Showcase, on the other hand does a brilliant job of redefining the image gallery.

Run carouFredSel in three different configuration modes: Basic, Advanced, and Super User. Choose from a number of built-in layout styles to keep things real simple, or dive in to edit the configuration any way you'd like for complete control. - Automatically Pull-In Images from Social Networks
If you really want to automate things, you can integrate Showcase with the free Media Manager Plus WordPress plugin. This nifty tool will automatically pull your images from Instagram, Flicker, etc., based on all sorts of keywords or criteria! - Robust Feature Set
Besides the incredible image carousel itself, this plugin includes a number of great all-around features. Built right into carouFredSel are things like auto-updates, a beautiful lightbox, role management, custom CSS input, and loads of hooks and filters for total flexibility and customization.
Closed Beta:
- Turn Your Site into a Closed Beta
Sometimes you want to let a set number of users test out your site before fully launching. This "Closed Beta" gives you the opportunity to find and fix bugs as well as get initial feedback. With the Closed Beta WordPress plugin, you can easily turn your entire site into a Closed Beta one, only allowing in users based on a pre-set criteria. - Approval System for Users
Closed Beta's built-in user approval system lets you have complete control over who can access your beta site or not. Those you approve can dive in and see your fully functional site, whereas those who were denied access will instead be served up a Closed Beta splash page with whatever information you'd like to share. - Customized Landing Page
For users you deny or those who are logged out, you can create a completely unique landing page. Besides sharing relevant information such as potential launch date of your site, you can also choose to show a built-in signup form for users to request access to your beta site. - Additional Resources
Worried that beta users may share links to your hidden site? Even if it's accidental or automated, plenty of feeds and trackbacks can point to your beta, resulting in frustrated users and potentially angry search engines. Not to worry, though, because Closed Beta includes a number of powerful features to block feeds, trackbacks, and even XMLRPC. There's an advanced developer template customization with a variety of powerful custom action and filters, as well as auto-updates.
Custom Emails:
- Manage Site Emails in WordPress
With the Custom Emails WordPress plugin, you can take complete control over how all your regular emails are sent out through your site. Customize a variety of aspects including changing the email sender's name, using gorgeous HTML email templates, and even sending your emails through a third party email service such as Amazon SES or Postmark. - Send Gorgeous HTML Emails
Custom Emails comes with a beautiful collection of HTML templates to add a sense of professionalism to your WordPress site. Even simple email notifications like password resets will look much more impressive! - Easy Integration with Email Services
In addition to controlling emails you send straight from WordPress, the Custom Emails plugin can also integrate into other email services. Easily hook into third party offerings like Amazon SES and Postmark for complete control. - Loads More Powerful Resources
Custom Emails supplies some powerful and robust tools for controlling how emails are sent through your WordPress website, but there's more! Built in to this fantastic resource are a number of helpful tools such as auto-updates, complete customization for developers, total flexibility through hooks and filters, and more!
