Thanks much for those kind invites All. Best Wishes. Peace.
I appreciate those invites, Easyrider. Best Wishes & Thanks, eh? Peace.
That is a good classic there.. I don't see many classic cars or trucks on the road, But I do see a lot of them at car shows.. People seem to keep the classics put away in garages to keep them nice and from damage.. I was at a car show one time and a few birds flew over and droppings fell on his classic and he got mad and said he would kill every bird if he could..
Pinnerbark, I was thrilled to find this by chance. It's like catching a fish! Shot a bunch a pics and edited my faves. This truck was made before I was born in 1958. And still running. Glad you like this too.
Thanks & best wishes.

After months of speculation the results are in and America has chosen its new Idol. The undisputed champion of Season 10 is country boy Scotty McCreery. Predicted by many to win, McCreery held on after a last minute surge by upstart Lauren Alaina in the youngest finals ever on the series. The season finale had it all. Marc Anthony, Sheila E., J. Lo and a team of feathered dancers performed a riveting salsa number, Beyonce sang Crazy in Love with the female finalists, and Tim McGraw, Jack Black, Judas Priest, Carrie Underwood, Lil Jon and TLC all performed with finalists. If you missed it, you still have a chance to catch all the finalists on tour with 2011 American Idols Live tickets at venues across the country.
In a high stakes final, Lauen Alaina almost couldn't go on when her voice failed early in the day because of inflammed vocal cords. With Haley Reinhart warming up in the wings to take her place, American Idol's doctor worked a little pharmaceutical magic and Alaina went on to nail one of season's highlights. In a stirring rendition of her debut single Like My Mother Does, Alaina gracefully tackled the Idol staircase and embraced her mother without missing a note, literally singing over her mother's shoulder into the mic, embodying the definition of poise under pressure. Chief challenger Scotty McCreery sat calm, cool and collected in the background sharpening his knives and delivering one of his patented country rockers, leaving it up to anyone's guess who will be this season's American Idol. Get your cheap 2011 American Idol tickets to see all the finalists live on 2011 American Idols Live tour dates.
In the Judge's choice episode of American Idol's tenth season, finalists Haley Reinhart, Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina were schooled by survivor Beyonce Knowles who also premiered her new Tina Turner-Mad Max-Thunderdome-inspired video for Run the World (Girls) off her forthcoming album 4. Despite Beyonce's presence, the Contestant's Choice round leaned country except for Haley's unexpectedly rockin' Zepplin cover of What Is and What Should Never Be. The second round also featured country selections from this year's standouts The Band Perry and Thompson Square with Haley reaching into the dusty back catalogue once again to channel Stevie Nicks with Fleetwood Mac's Rihannon. In the next and last Judge's Choice round, Scotty and Lauren cover two more country legends, Kenny Rogers and Lee Ann womack respectively, while Haley, the odd woman out this episode, got Alannis Morissette's growler You Oughta Know. It's still up in the air who will be the first to fall but fans have a safety knowing they can see all their favorites perform with American Idol Live tickets. Check the American Idols Live tour dates and catch the top 11 at a venue near you.
In an American Idol tradition, the three finalists for the show's tenth season returned to their hometowns to throngs of screaming fans. Haley Reinhart, Scott McCreery and Lauren Alaina received hero's welcomes as they explored their home turf, visited old haunts and reconnected with family, and friends. All three finalists will be performing on American Idols Live tour dates. American Idol tickets are stil available for most venues.
Last night's American Idol was a star-studded tear jerker, replete with all of the grandstanding emotional melodrama that fans have come to expect from the show. James Durbin and Scotty McCreery sang a counntry duet prior to Durbin's surprising dismissal. Durbin, visibly shocked and overcome with emotion, wept openly as he departed. Lauren Alania, Haley Reinhart and McCreery lived to fight in the next round when Idol will visit each artist's hometown. Depite Durbin's departure, fans can see him again with 2011 American Idols Live tickets on American Idol tour dates at venues across the country.
With the American Idols Live tour kicking off in July, the four finalists are warming up in the last few shows of the season with a little help from the one and only Lady GaGa. GaGa stopped by the show to coach the final four and provide some inspiration for their penultimate performances. In typical GaGa fashion, everyone's favorite provacateur urged her charges to act more psychotic and sexy as she pranced, paraded and swiveled hips on stage. James Durbin, Haley Reinhart, Scott McCreery and Lauren Alania perfomred Journey's world devouring Don't Stop Believin', Michal Jackson's Earth Song, Alan Jackson's Where Were You (When the World Stoped Turning), Martina McBride's Anyway, Ben E.King's I Who Have Nothing, The Coaster's Young Blood, Elvis Presley's Trouble and The Searchers' Love Potion #9. Steven Tyler continued his reign as the creepiest old man on television while J-Lo and Randy Jackson turned in more of their typical wooden dialogue.

All the 4,000-odd boats operating in the State's inland waterways will henceforth have to comply with the new norms prescribed in the (Kerala) Inland Vessel Rules 2010, for obtaining or renewing licence.
The rules framed by a committee headed by B.R. Menon, Advisor to the State Government on Developing Inland Waterways and Ports, took effect on April 30. With this, the Chief Inspector of Boats (who is from the Irrigation Department) will cease to be the licensing authority for boats. Now onwards, a committee headed by marine engineers and naval architects will inspect the boats and issue or renew licences.
S.K. Pyarilal, former head of the department of ship technology of Cusat, who was a member of the committee which framed the rules, said that houseboats too would have to comply with the new norms.
"Most of the recent boat accidents in Kerala happened because the licensing authority was not competent enough to inspect the vessels and certify their fitness. The officials inspecting boats must have an idea of naval architecture." There are two fundamental safety aspects for boats — they should neither sink nor capsize. The Kumarakom tragedy was caused by water leaking into the hull, which resulted in the vessel sinking. In the case of Thettaked and Thekkady accidents, the boats capsized.
Flooding calculation
The design philosophy should be such that even if the water enters the hull, the boat should not sink. For this, naval architects make a 'flooding calculation', based on which the vessel has to remain afloat even if a compartment of the hull is flooded. Rescue teams can use this time to save the stranded passengers, Mr Pyarilal said. This had also been suggested by the Justice Narayana Kurup Commission, which had enquired into the Kumarakom tragedy.
Secondly, the boats must be stable even if they tilt to one side so that they do not capsize.
Capsizing is more dangerous than sinking since passengers of a sinking vessel will have up to 30 minutes to escape. Capsizing happens within seconds and people will not have time even to ready the life-saving equipment on board. Passengers will not be able to swim to safety if they are trapped inside.
Dynamic analysis
To ensure stability, three drawings or calculations have to be prepared using software prior to the building of the vessel.
It is also mandatory to do an inclining experiment, to ascertain the actual centre of gravity and weight. A dynamic analysis too is done, to test the boat's stability when passengers crowd to one side, a strong wind blows or the boat takes a sharp turn. This is because a boat that looks safe in the static condition can be dangerous in the dynamic condition.
The design philosophy should be such that the boat should not sink or capsize, even if it is overcrowded.
Till recently, boats which fit the stipulations laid down in the Inland Vessel Act of 1917 were given licences. "These requirements had been framed for country canoes that transported goods a century ago.
Though there was mention of stability, the methodology to be adopted and the qualification of professionals who had to certify the vessels were not mentioned.
This resulted in mechanical engineers in the Irrigation Department carrying out the survey and inspection of vessels, despite having little knowledge of survey and boat building," Mr Pyarilal said.

Stricken coal carrier faces long haul to port
Maritime authorities are hoping to start moving the stricken Chinese coal carrier the Shen Neng 1 towards Gladstone in central Queensland today if the weather is favourable.
The ship has been moved to Barren Island after running aground on Douglas Shoal on the Great Barrier Reef, east of Rockhampton, more than two weeks ago.
Maritime Safety Queensland (MSQ) says it will take 18 to 24 hours to tow the vessel to Gladstone and a further seven hours to get it into the port.
Once there, MSQ says it is likely to need temporary repairs and some cargo unloaded.
But authorities predict it will be difficult to remove the contamination left where the Shen Neng 1 ran aground on the Great Barrier Reef.
An Australian Institute of Marine Science team (AIMS) is in Gladstone after assessing the site on Douglas Shoal.
It obtained a sonar map and video footage but sediment samples could not be collected due to poor weather.
AIMS crew leader Dr Andrew Negri says the samples will reveal the amount of anti-fouling paint left.
"We know that there's a very wide area of reef that has been destroyed," he said.
"We also know that it's going to be very difficult to decontaminate that reef, simply because the reef is very exposed to the ocean - it's not protected by other reefs. It's also got very strong currents which make diving very problematic."
Dr Negri says the details collected can help determine the damage to coral and algae.
"The next level of the process is to process the data from the multi-beam scanner to provide this very detailed map of the surface," he said.
"We also need to go through hours worth of video footage and marry that up with the data that we've got from the topographical map of the area."

Does Digital Government Make Sense? Sure, But Funding, Security Are In The Way, Workers Say
Since the implementation of President Barack Obama's Digital Government Strategy in 2012, the federal government has taken steps to bring citizen-facing services into the 21st-century. The directive aims to transform government through better use of information technology and data; modernizing the federal government's IT infrastructure and closing the IT gap between the private and public sectors.
To get a better understanding of how agencies are processing digital government practices and policies two years into the initiative, Xerox (NYSE:XRX) underwrote FedScoop's 2014 Digital Government Study. FedScoop is a government IT media company and is the government IT community's platform for education and collaboration.
The survey of more than 230 government and industry IT decision makers found that while 94 percent of all respondents agree that creating a digital government is beneficial, 75 percent of those surveyed say they lack the proper resources to enable a successful strategy.
"Because there is an executive mandate in place, organizations feel empowered to make the changes outlined in their digital strategy. However, some organizations are unsure how to get there," said Goldy Kamali, founder and CEO of FedScoop.
Obstacles to a Digital Government Both industry and government are feeling the fiscal pressure with 60 percent of respondents citing IT budgets as the biggest obstacle to their organization's digital strategy. Training also appears to be a factor. Thirty-three percent of respondents say they haven't participated in a digital government discussion, training or creation of new mobile technologies. Another challenge facing government professionals and the digital government initiative includes communication. Sixty percent of government respondents say the digital government strategy isn't defined and communicated in a way employees can easily adopt. The Best Methods to a Digital Government Security is top of mind for federal respondents who rated "security and privacy" as the best way to a digital government. However, a "shared platform" approach trailed closely, which suggests government respondents are aware of the balance between streamlining information delivery without compromising security. "The presidential memorandum is a solid roadmap for agencies to follow as they move toward a modern government, but tapping into technologies and best practices that already are accepted and trusted in the commercial sector can accelerate progress," said Mike Bowers, group president, Xerox Federal Services. "Collaboration between public and private companies can go a long way towards achieving digital objectives." Xerox Federal Solutions helps more than 25 federal agencies meet their business process and information technology needs through their document management, customer servicing, transaction processing and data analytics solutions.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Video: Rice-Cooker Blueberry Pancake
Rice-Cooker Blueberry Pancake
makes 1 giant pancake*
*We have a really large rice cooker. If you have a more sensibly-sized one, you probably want to halve this recipe.
2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
4 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, or vegetable oil
2 large eggs
A heaping cup of blueberries
the zest of one lemon
maple syrup and more butter, to serve
In the bowl of your rice cooker, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Give it a mix. Add in the milk, butter, and eggs. Stir until just moistened. Add the blueberries and lemon zest and give it one last gentle stir to combine.
Place the bowl in the rice cooker, close the lid, and press the "cook" button. After a few minutes our rice cooker switched to the "keep warm" setting, but our pancake was nowhere close to being done. Everything we read online told us to keep it in there for 45 minutes. We did, and then some. After an hour and a half, ours finally looked cooked. And voila, it was!
Serve with a bit of butter and maple syrup.

NPR Reporter Looks Back On A Year In Iraq
Lourdes Garcia-Navarro reflects on her just-concluded assignment in Baghdad with host Jacki Lyden.
Copyright © 2009 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
JACKI LYDEN, host: Lourdes Garcia-Navarro has been in and out of Iraq covering the story since well before the 2003 U.S. invasion. She just wrapped up over a year as NPR's Baghdad bureau chief, and she joins me now to talk about her time there, and we are very glad to welcome you to the show, Lulu.
LOURDES GARCIA-NAVARRO: Thank you very much.
LYDEN: You've covered Iraq since long before the invasion. What are your thoughts about the country today with just this new spike in the bombings?
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I'll tell you what. During every single episode of Iraq's history that I have been privy to, people have asked me what I think. Even Iraqis ask me what I think, and where is it going, and I always don't know what to tell them.
And I think right now, I feel exactly the same way. I left Iraq with an absolutely bittersweet feeling. For the first time in a long time, I was able to travel around the country. I was able to speak to Iraqis. There is a sense of renewed hope among certain quarters, but there is still so many difficulties there that I really left dreading the future.
And speaking to Iraqis as I left, they feel the same way. There's hope in their hearts, but there's also so much fear. And I think that that fear, at the moment, is really the winning emotion in the struggle between the two.
LYDEN: One of the stories that I recall you doing the most was about a single individual who was collecting the bodies of the dead. Could you talk about that story?
GARCIA-NAVARRO: It was an incredible story, actually. This was in 2005, and the bodies were mounting at the morgue, the bodies of people who had no identification. People didn't know who they were. No one was coming to collect them. And it was really the first time that we felt that there was this terrible thing happening in Iraq.
And as I went to the morgue, as you would go to frequently to cover the violence, a lot of the morgue workers would whisper about this man. This is the man who takes away the bodies of suicide bombers. He takes them for burial in Najaf to the biggest cemetery in the world. And it was extraordinary to meet him. It was so powerful.
He talked about before, under Saddam, how there were really only one to two unidentified bodies in a month and how there were now dozens that he was collecting every week. And it was really the first time that it really hit me what was happening in Iraq, how people were killing each other every day, in incredibly violent ways.
LYDEN: Were you able to develop anything that you would call affection for Iraq in the midst of all this?
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Yes, absolutely. I don't think you can cover a country as long as I have without feeling a great deal of affection. The story becomes, in a strange way, and I'm sure you know this, Jacki, it becomes about you, almost.
You know, I've gone through a lot of things in Iraq. It's often been a love-hate relationship, though. I used to describe Iraq as an abusive husband that I kept on going back to no matter how it made me feel because I felt this story was so important. I felt what we were doing there was so important.
LYDEN: Yeah. We as journalists often don't like to talk about the things we've seen, not even when we get together in the after-hours. But I wonder, I can't leave you and not ask about how it's affected you, if you're willing to talk about that.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I am. I had posttraumatic stress disorder, actually. I was diagnosed with it in 2005. I had spent two years straight there from 2002 to 2004, and I left to become the Mexico City bureau chief, and it all just came crashing in on me. It was extremely difficult period.
I kept on going back for National Public Radio in 2005 because I really just felt that I could cope, and I really wanted to continue to cover the story, but then I just had to stop for a little bit because everything that you see there affects you. You live it, too.
As a journalist, we're not only reporting the things that we see, we experience them. When you go to a bomb site, you are witnessing the carnage, you know, and it was extremely difficult for me.
And as a journalist, I think, you know, you don't really want to talk about it because it makes you seem weak, or people will think oh, look at all the terrible things that are happening to Iraqis, and here you are talking about yourself, me, me, me, me, me. But there is, I think, a trauma that can happen to journalists when you cover a lot of conflicts, and you really have to take care of yourself.
LYDEN: Yeah, or you might not be able to go back. I know you've done tours in really difficult places: Kosovo, Haiti, and now you're in Jerusalem, not an easy posting by any means. Listeners are going to ask, do you want to keep doing this, I think.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: It's a question that I ask myself all the time, and I think it's a healthy question to ask yourself all the time. I think you say you won't do it anymore the minute, actually, you stop caring about the stories that you cover. That, for me, is the benchmark.
I see it happen a lot to foreign correspondents who've covered wars for a long time. They shut down. That's what I'm afraid of. I'm afraid of shutting down. And the minute that I shut down, then I'll stop doing this. But as long as I can engage, and as long as I feel I can tell people stories the way they deserve to be told, then I'll keep doing this.
LYDEN: Well, thank you so much for sharing this, Lulu, and I think everybody is wishing you the very, very best of luck in Israel. And thank you for your service to this network in Baghdad and Iraq.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: You're welcome.

Make a scrolling sign, or a small video display with this 8x8 gridded LED matrix.
Only 1.2"" on a side, it is quite visible but not so large it wont plug into a breadboard. 64 green 250mcd LEDs are contained inside the plastic body, in an 8x8 matrix. There are 16 pins on the side, 8 on each, with 0.1"" spacing so you can easily plug it into a breadboard with one row on each side for wiring it up.Since the display is in a grid, you'll need to 1:8 multiplex control it. We suggest either using a 74HC595 and TPIC6B595 (using the 74HC' to control the 8 anodes at once and then using the TPIC' to drive one cathode at a time) or just using a single MAX7219 which will do the multiplexing work for you.

The Knife's Debut Music Video
"the long-awaited follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2006 album Silent Shout." uhh
Digging: Waxahatchee - Ivy Tripp
Well, Silent Shout was their last proper solo album and their last release of original material
Digging: Phace - Shape The Random
@Aids: What part of that statement are you uhh-ing about? Describing it as a follow-up or describing it as critically acclaimed? I left out "Tomorrow, In A Year" because it's not really considered their album.
I totally consider Tomorrow, In A Year to be a Knife album, even if it is collaborating with other artists. It's also absolutely incredible. I can see why some people wouldn't really consider it a canonical Knife release though, so I think either way is kinda fair. Interesting first single, song is weird as hell. Super cool though.
why not 'The Knives'?
yeah tomorrow, in a year is a collaboration. thought everyone knew that. anyway, the video is pretty bad, but the song rules immensely
Digging: Kate Carr - Fabulations
The song is bloody incredible. The new album will rule.
Weird as fuck, but I like it.
Wow, pretty amazing song and video ill say!
album will rule
Digging: Vril - Portal
Digging: Thy Catafalque - Roka Hasa Radio
song's great. Her vocals are starting to sound like Ellen Allien
i think her vocals sound most akin to bjork.
Can't listen to the first disc at all, but that second disc is pretty good. Especially Colouring of Pigeons.
Never been a huge fan of these guys, but I'm interested in seeing how the new album plays out.
Digging: O Paon - Fleuve
oh come on, you don't hear it?
Hotdamn I fucking missed the knife
Yuh huh Ellen Allien
lol sure. the reason it's a comparison is because they sound very much alike. i'm not comparing them in terms of being unique, i'm comparing their voices. why is this so hard to understand? the first verse of colouring of pigeons could have very well been sung by bjork and it would have sounded very much the same.
Digging: Violent Soho - Hungry Ghost
Oh come on, I would never make the bjork comparison myself but if you really listen to colouring of pigeons you can see why it's reasonable.
Yeah well I love it too and I'm a huge bjork fan. I really think the comparison, at least on that track (not so sold otherwise) is at least somewhat legitimate. The enunciation of words and holding syllables especially stand out. I'm not saying I think it really sounds like bjork, but I do think there are similarities there that can't be ignored.
"'I'm not saying I think it really sounds like bjork, but I do think there are similarities there that can't be ignored.' you realize this argument is so vague it can be applied to literally anybody" And you realize you're isolating one sentence of my post? Don't try to twist it into something stupid like "they sound the same because they both sing". It isn't supposed to be taken in on its own. It can (maybe) be applied to anybody on its own, but it's following a comment I made where I clarified just what I think is similar between the two artists. The way they enunciate, and the way they hang onto their ending syllables, specifically. There's also a sort of "cutesy" delivery that bjork has that shows up a lot in karin's singing in CoP. I'm just saying plain and simply, I think there are obvious similarities in their vocal delivery, at least on CoP. And I also said that I don't really think they sound alike, but I can see why people would make the comparison. I mean it's you that said "the only reason its a comparison at all is because there is no one else closer.". So if there's no one closer, how is it wrong to group the two together? I'm not saying anything about their ranges. They might both typically work in specific ranges, but there's some crossover for sure. I guess you've got some personal reason to wanna isolate the two, or to claim you've somehow got some greater understanding of the differences in female vocalists. And that's cool and all, but really I haven't heard anyone sound as similar to bjork as karin does in colouring of pigeons. And I'm not saying there isn't someone else who does, but I just haven't heard them.
idk, i think for me in colouring of pigeons it's in how she enunciates the words and there are similarities in their voices. i know it's not bjork, but it's the closest comparison i have.
you know what i think she sounds more like Ellen Allien
How about ellen allien

Lord Smith: Equal marriage had such a large majority because it came from a Tory Government
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Civil partnerships have always been offensive and discriminatory because they were invented solely to deny same sex couples legal equality.
Does Mr Smith accept this?
And why doesn't he mention that a majority of Tory MP's in the elected House of Commons (as opposed to the undemocratic, unelected House of 'Lords') remain evil bigots who think that gay people are 2nd class citizens
Actually, the number of Tories who voted no in 3rd reading in the Commons wasn't such a large majority, 127 votes compared to 117 who voted for it. So slightly less than half supported it, still a good number.
"they were invented solely to deny same sex couples legal equality" – rubbish. If the purpose was to deny same sex couples legal equality then they wouldn't have been introduced in the first place.
Maybe they should have just tried to pass marriage in 2004, but civil partnerships, as a stepping stone, were far better in terms of legal equality than nothing at all.
They are making up for the Margaret Thatcher years, however labour has lost any political advantage with the gay community.
Labour has not lost its political advantage with the gay community.
Clearly no gay person can vote for the majority of current Tory MPs who are extremist bigot s who believe we deserve discrimination.
The Labour strategy at the next election should be to print a list of the bigots. Most of the bigots are Tory scum.
Even Callmedave Cameron accepts that LGBT people cannot vote for any candidate that opposed equality
I think prehaps he is right.
However I do think had Gordon Brown been given another term we would have been waiting even longer as he didn't support Equality in marriage when questioned saying civil partnerships were enough.
Either way we have it and wait for it to be available to us next year, though do think it should have been introduced this Autumn at the latest, being that it was so overwhelmingly supported.

'Ted' Oscar sketch. (photo credit:Youtube screenshot)
American Jewish groups have hit out at one of the comedy routines performed during the Academy Awards show on Sunday night, accusing it of anti-Semitism. The awards ceremony, presented this year by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, was lambasted by the Anti-Defamation League and the Simon Wiesenthal Center for a sketch starring the foul-mouthed teddy bear "Ted", voiced by MacFarlane and the eponymous star of a recent hit movie. During the sketch Ted tells his movie co-star Mark Wahlberg that in order to "work in this town" (Hollywood) he must be Jewish. He then goes on to say, "I was born Theodore Shapiro and I would like to donate to Israel and continue to work in Hollywood forever."Abe Foxman of the ADL branded the routine "offensive and not remotely funny"."To many who know little or nothing about Hollywood or the falsity of such Jewish stereotypes, there's a much higher potential for the 'Jews control Hollywood' myth to be accepted as fact," said the statement from the ADL."It only reinforces stereotypes which legitimize anti-Semitism. It is sad and disheartening that the Oscars awards show sought to use anti-Jewish stereotypes for laughs," Foxman's statement said. He also expressed the regret that MacFarlane and the Academy Awards producers had not shown greater sensitivity and decided against airing a sketch that so reinforced age-old canard about Jewish control of the film industry.The segment also drew fire from the Simon Wiesenthal Center."It is unfortunate that at a time when anti-Semitism is so prevalent throughout the world that Seth McFarlane used the pulpit of the Oscars, before an audience of more than a billion people, to contribute to the myth that Jews own Hollywood," said a statement from the Center. "The Oscars are transmitted to every corner of the globe, even to such places where such hateful myths are believed as fact. Every comedian is entitled to wide latitude, but no one should get a free pass for helping to promote anti-Semitism."

Geet is a show about the life and troubles of an 18-year old girl named Geet. Geet marries a man because her family told her to; as a girl, she has no power to go against her family. She marries Dev on her family's wish and three days later, Dev ditches her, takes her family's money and property and heads off to Canada. Dev leaves Geet pregnant on the airport. After severing ties with her family from Hoshiyarpur for attempting to wrongfully kill her (due to her pregnancy), Geet moves to Delhi and is now working under Maan Singh Khurana. Maan is a man she coincidentally met in her hometown and had frequent unpleasant encounters with. Maan has saved Geet's life many times; after wishing for not seeing each other again, the moment Geet's in trouble, Maan comes to her aid. Furthermore, since being new in Delhi and not knowing anything, Geet works in Maan's office. By accident, Maan is Dev's elder brother; Dev returns to India after Maan clears Dev's debts. Dev is oblivious that Geet works for Maan, but can see a visible change in his brother due to Geet's presence. The ever-increasing love between Maan and Geet is constantly trialled and tested.

Dev is oblivious that Geet works for Maan, but can see a visible change in his brother due to Geet's presence. Maan asks Geet to arrange a party for their new clients. Despite detailed notes on the arrangements by Maan, Geet faces criticism as Sasha changes the menu to samosa and kachori and doesn't inform Geet about the change of time. Sasha gets Geet to wear a sari to make Maan scold Geet, but Maan is dumbstruck by Geet's beauty in a sari. After sharing an intimate dance, Maan helps Geet with her sari, which is torn by Sasha. Later on, Maan and Geet get locked in the office while completing a project. Maan experiences romantic feelings towards Geet and lays his shirt over her when she shivers in her sleep. The entire office gossips about Geet and Maan spending the night which makes Geet feel awkward and refusing to go to an official dinner with Maan. Yet, Geet goes to the dinner at Pinky's insistence. Noticing Geet being insulted by the hotel manager for accidentally ordering a crab dish, Maan and Geet head to a dabha where they both dance & have a good time. While heading back home from the dabha, Maan's car tires are stolen. Geet and Maan get caught in the rain. Maan and Geet hug each other and Maan accepts he is changing because of Geet and decides to keep distance from her. Following day, Maan gives Geet's cabin and office work to Sasha and asks Geet to make arrangement for the launch party. Geet chooses an Indian theme which does not go well with Maan- resulting in a fight between the two and Geet impulsively resigning. Later when the clients appreciate the decor, Maan realizes his mistake but sees Geet's things packed. Maan's dadi having witnessed the fight offers Geet a job to be her grandson's secretary and inviting her to stay at her outhouse. Geet accepts without knowing that she is Maan's dadi. Maan and Geet now live under the same roof, harboring intense feelings of love and emotion for each other, but are unable to confess it due to personal problems in their past. After Maan cancels a hotel deal (being made in Hoshiyarpur- on Geet's land) because his client insults Geet, Geet realizes her feelings towards Maan. Geet is trying hard to control her feelings since, she remembers of the life in her womb. Dadima knowing Maan and Geet's feelings assigns Geet to look for a fiancé for Maan hoping Geet will confess her feelings for Maan. On arrival of Pari, "Maan's biggest fan" Geet feels the pangs of jealousy. Maan enticing Geet to reveal her feelings plays along with Pari. Pari after knowing Maan and Geet love each other leaves on the day Maan was supposed to introduce his fiancé to dadi. Geet is left with no choice but to pretend to be Maan's fiancé. Currently as a case is running against Maan filed by Rasika Rathore, (the hotel deal client), Geet thinks it because of her and Maan can go to jail, so she decides to help him out and the only solution of it is to go to Hoshiyarpur. Remembering all that happened to her, but for sake of Maan's life, Geet goes back to Hoshiyarpur and Maan follows her. At the same time dadi wants Maan to get married and know about the feelings Maan and Geet are harbor for each other. Geet and Maan now are pretending to be fiancés for the sake of Maan's dadi but in reality, they find out that they love each other. When Maan and Geet start getting very intimate with each other, Maan tells her that for him, "honesty is above all else." Due to this, Geet tells him about her pregnancy. Maan leaves her without bothering to listen to the rest of her story. Geet constantly tries telling him but he is too mad to care at this point. When Geet falls down after running after his car, he takes her back home and takes care of her. Dadi walks into the room the next morning and finds them sleeping in the same bed with Geet wearing Maan's shirt but Maan sets her straight and tells her that Geet is sick. Dev tries to tell Maan about what he has done to Geet (Dev has no idea Geet is in their house) but chickens out once Maan says that if Dev tells him the truth about everything, he'll trust him. Geet takes Adi and Pinki's help to get Maan to talk to her privately in the conference hall by tricking him into it. Geet tells Maan the truth and leaves. Later Maan repents for his mistake and finds out from reluctant Adi and Pinki that Geet is leaving. Maan then goes the railway station and is looking for Geet. Meanwhile Geet wants to go somewhere far and gets a ticket to Ahmadabad. Maan finds Geet at the Railway Station after a lot of searching. He apologizes to Geet and says that he doesn't care about her past. He wants to become a part of her life. He wants to live with her and he wants to be with her forever. Then, Geet turns away but her veil gets stuck on Maan's watch. Maan gets on his knees and proposes to her. Geet agrees as she also loves Maan. Geet and Maan come home. Geet stays at home, while Maan leaves for the office early in the morning. While Geet is at Home, dadi packs both their bags and tells Geet to take them to the office for their business trip. Geet comes in the office with the heavy bags and Maan quickly grabs them because Geet shouldn't carry heavy stuff during her pregnancy. Later, Geet tries climbing on a table to get a file that's on a shelf. She almost falls but Maan comes and saves her. Then, Maan tries to ask Geet about her past, but Geet tells Maan that he shouldn't talk to her until he realizes that he needs Geet when he is in trouble. Then, Maan calls Geet into the garden and says that he does need her and he wants to ask her something. He asks if Geet is troubled by the boy who betrayed her (not knowing that it's Dev). Geet asks Maan if he is upset or troubled about her past. Maan says that if Geet is troubled, then he is troubled. He said that he will find that man who betrayed Geet just for her. Geet says no. She says that she wants to forget about her past and she wants to start a new life with him. Maan smiles and agrees. Later, Geet goes to her room to get ready for the business trip with Maan. In her hand, she is holding Dev's number from Canada. It falls and Maan sees it. Maan notices that it is Dev's number. He asks how she got this number not knowing that she knows Dev. Maan tells Geet that the code is of Canada. Geet says that it came by air to her room. Maan accepts it and guilt's for it. Maan and Geet are in Manali now. Their Project contractor comes and praises Geet for her beauty. Maan gets angry and tells Geet to do shopping. After a long looking, Maan brings Geet back and tells all of them that Geet is his fiancé, his exact lines were, "Geet...Maan Singh Khurana ki mangetar hai. Sirf meri. Sirf meri mangetar." The English translation is- "Geet is Maan Singh Khurana's fiancé. Only mine. Only my fiancé." Geet and Maan go inside the hotel. Geet is wearing Maan's shirt and the curtain drapes as a "dhoti" and Maan comes from behind and puts his arm around Geet's waist. Both become romantic and they share romantic moments. Maan tells Geet that he is not pretending to be her fiancé and says, "Kya yeh nazdekian tumahre liye jhoot lag rahe hai?" That means- "Is me being close to you a lie for you?" Maan is ready to tell the public about their relationship and Geet is ready to tell Maan that she loves him. Maan asks Geet if she wants to start their relationship at a new level, if she feels something for him. Geet is unable to express her feelings as she is scared. When Maan and Geet arrive in Delhi, Geet tries to tell her feelings but they are interrupted a few times. Dadi tells Maan and Geet to take two days off for shopping as dadi has planned a huge engagement party for Maan and Geet. Maan is upset because Geet won't express her love for Maan and he wants Geet to tell him quickly. Later, Dev comes to the office but no one is there and he finds out that Geet works with Maan and Dev is shocked. Dev is worried as he fears that Geet have told every thing to Maan. Meera advises Dev to talk to Maan and know whether he knows about Geet and Dev's past or not. Geet is scared to tell Maan about her love to him. Maan thinks that Geet is responsible for the engagement party; he is very angry on Geet as she does not tell him about her feelings. Geet sits in the garden and thinks about Maan and her relationship. Meanwhile, Meera meets Geet and supports her to end up her confusion and leaves. Geet decides to tell her feelings to Maan and goes to him. Maan tells Geet that he wants to take her to a date and asks her to get ready. Maan takes her to a camp site- the place they first met. There he and Geet confess their love towards each other. Geet and Maan are getting ready for their engagement party. In the morning when Geet wakes up, she sees Maan first, who is standing by the window. Then dadi comes with some gifts for Geet. Geet gets ready by taking a rose water bath while Maan is watching. Maan comes closer and drips water on Geet and they share a romantic moment. Maan tells Geet to get ready because he needs to take her somewhere important. Maan takes Geet to the hospital for her first checkup. Geet realizes how much Maan cares because he booked the entire ward only for her so that Geet doesn't feel uncomfortable. The doctor scolds Maan for getting her check-up done late. Maan promises the doctor that he will not give her another chance to scold him and will bring Geet for her regular check-up. Meera realizes and gets to know that Geet is Maan's fiancé and tries to stop Dev from meeting Geet. Meera meets Dev and tells him that Maan's fiancé is none other than Geet. Dev is shocked and wants to stop the engagement. He decides to tell the truth to Maan before the engagement happens. Maan gets Geet to a separate place and confesses that he will be by her side for every happiness and sadness. He also vows her that from that very moment everything is going to be truth and nothing fake, including their engagement. In the mean time Dev comes looking out for Maan, but couldn't see as the room was very dark. Then, Geet goes but she hides and hears what Maan and Dev are talking about ( not knowing that it's Dev with him). She overhears Maan saying that his life is so much better and he's very happy with Geet. Then Maan sees her listening and Geet runs. Maan comes behind her and grabs her hand then she escapes. As she's running, she bumps into Dev. She remembers her past and slaps Dev and runs out crying. Then, she tries to tell Maan but she is shocked to hear that Dev is Maan's brother. She runs out and she goes into the garden and cries while questioning God why he is messing with her life. Then Dev comes and says, " Geet." Dev tells Geet that he is very sorry and that if Geet tells Maan about their past, Maan will die. Then, when Geet goes back to the dressing room, some girls see that Geet's mehndi is messed up and tell her that it is bad luck and they take off the jewerly that Maan gave her to wear. Geet gets scared and runs away into the woods. Pinky tries to find her but she can't find her anywhere. She tells Maan and Maan gets worried because he can't find Geet anywhere. Geet cries while thinking about what she should do- should she tell Maan about her and Dev and break Maan's heart by sending Dev to jail or should she keep quiet, forget about her past and continue her new life with Maan? Geet is still in the woods. She's thinking about Maan and her. At the party, everyone says that Geet ran away because it's been 2 hours!! Maan, heartbroken leaves and searches the house again. Dev and Meera go to find Geet. Geet returns home and meets Naintara who says that Maan hates her and that he doesn't want to talk to her. She tells her that Maan has broken the engagement but Geet doesn't believe her. ( Maan has not broken the engagement at all, he loves Geet. Naintara is just lying) Naintara tells Dadimaa wrong things about Geet and Dadimaa kicks her out of the house. But, Maan is actually searching for Geet because he wants to know why she left and he wants to know if she loves him. Geet, heartbroken and shocked leaves. Dev feels guilty because he thinks that its all his fault, that's why Geet left. Geet is now walking in the dark night and Maan is in his car looking for her as he gets emotional. Geet comes home to pack. Maan sets up a tent in the woods and thinks of Geet. Naintara confronts Dev and Meera and Naintara fills Dadimaa's brain with bad thoughts. Naintara tells Meera to leave and to move on with her life. Dev tells Naintara that Meera knows everything. Pinky and Adi go home and Pinky's dad reveal that Geet is pregnant. Pinky and Adi are shocked. Naintara threatens Meera because she says that Meera is only Dev's friend and she has no right to tell Dev what's right or wrong. Dev confronts Naintara and tells her to be quiet. Naintara says that if Dev tells Dadimaa and Maan the truth about Geet, then both of them will die and Naintara doesn't want them to find out because she fears the punishment she will be given with Dev. Meera leaves saying that this is a fight between a husband and wife. At Pinky's house, Adi and Pinky are still shocked because Maan and Geet are not married. Pinky's dad tells them that Geet faced unpleasant encounters in Hoshiarpur with her family, which is why she came to Delhi. Then, Geet thinks about where she should go and Meera meets her!! Meera and geet are both shocked. geet tells meera that she was right, you have to tell what's in your heart, but she didn't manage to do that. She saw her past in front of her eyes ( meaning dev) and she couldn't control it. meera explains that your past never leaves you. meera and geet express their feelings about their past and love life. they realize that they share a lot of common problems and interests about love. geet tells meera that maan will have to listen to her full story and meera says how will you find maan and geet is confused because she never told meera that maan has disappeared, so how does she know? ( now we'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out)! In the promos it is showing Geet in the dressing room and Maan comes. Geet says, " You gave me life." And Maan says, " But you showed me how to live life." (He puts some bangles on Geet)Maan says " We have a strong bond that is irreplacable." And Geet says, " Is our relationship more important than family?" And the bangle breaks.
18 years old, educated, pretty, warm, Geet is the sweetheart of the family. Loved and adored by one and all, she lives a happy, vivacious, cheerful life. Even a bit immature times, she is often told by her mother to grow up and become more responsible towards life, though she always turns a deaf ear. She has had a hard time in Hoshiarpur but now she has come to Delhi. She is Maan's fiance and she is pregnant with Dev's child and Maan has no problem with it not knowing that Dev betrayed Geet. Geet is now in love with maan and she has confessed her love to him and there will be an engagement party for them to tell the public.
Maan is unfriendly but honorable and is the typical example of an angry young man who is happy being aloof from the world.He is very good-looking and handsome. Maan doesn't talk much and prefers to keep his distance from everyone,especially girls. Girls are too fond of him because of his personality and value in society . He is one of those dominant guys with a cold and hard exterior. Maan is Dev's brother and is focused on his career. He can't say no to his daadimaa. He hates Geet at first but very soon, he starts feeling intense emotions for Geet. He changes into a nice young man.Eventually, he falls in love with Geet. He is now Geet's fiance. He doesn't have any problem with Geet's pregnancy because he loves and cares for Geet.He try to stay away from her but find that he cant because of his love. Maan has confessed his love and there will be an engagement party for them to tell the public. maan will marry geet no matter what
Dev is an urban young guy who impresses everyone with his charm and good looks. He is a completely different person inside unlike what he portrays to be. He is insensitive and doesn't care about anyone when it comes to achieving his objective. He is married to Naintara and with his wife tricks Geet into marrying him to exploit the well-to-do family, and abandons her in the Airport. Later, he starts feeling guilty about what he did with Geet and his relationship starts falling apart from Naintara because she suspects him of having an affair with Geet, although he doesn't. Dev's old friend Meera returns and Dev starts feeling for her while they are trying to find Geet
She plays a negative character who can do anything or go to any extent to make money, even get her husband married over again. She is the woman behind Dev who guides him in meera for her property and again she cons Dadimaa by entering her house to inherit the family fortune. She suspects Dev of cheating on her although Dev loves Naintara. She has left Dev right now because she fears of Maan and him finding out what she and Dev did to Geet.
She is an elegant rich lady, who holds the reins of the Khurana household. A very dignified character who misses staying with her family as she feels lonely even in Maan's presence. She gets influenced easily by Naintara and forces Maan to accept Dev and his family, but when time comes she is someone who will display strong opinion because this daadi has a mind of her own. She knows that Maan and Geet are in love and she makes a plan to make Maan and Geet come closer.
Perneet plays the character of Meera who is Dev's (Abhinav Shukla) college friend. From college days Dev and Meera have been very close friends. Meera was in fact in love with Dev but before she could propose to him Naintara (Karishma Randeva) entered his life. So, the past story of Dev and Meera is something similar to the story of movie Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Meera will come across as a very positive and chirpy girl who comes back to Dev's life. In episodes to come Meera will be a catalyst to the big confrontation between Dev and Geet (Drashti Dhami).so nice character of mera
Played by Neha Jhulka . This is a cameo role, a very cute one wherein she play's an extremely positive character, who comes in Maan's life to play his fake fiance which brings Geet's feelings out for Maan(and they come close to each other.)

That's 20000 "M16 rounds" along with the 15000 9mm rounds. So basically someone stole a pallet or two of ammo from a warehouse.
Guess they had to call them M16 rounds because 5.56 doesn't sound scary enough.
So no guns were stolen only about a two days worth of practice ammo for a squad.

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.14 / 5.00 4,086 ViewsThanks to everyone who helped me make this possible! Namely Ty Bucek, Jeff Lupetin, Kevin Czarnecki and Katelyn Foley. Without you guys there is no way this would have been nearly as good as it is!
This is my submission for the Tournament of Flash Animators (TOFA) 2011 First Round. The theme was "Lost and Found". I decided to go with a stylized Noire not only because it fits the theme so well, but because I've been wanting to do something involving detectives ever since I finished watching Twin Peaks, and just recently beating L.A. Noire certainly helped fuel that some more.
This is my first animation working with professional voice actors and not lending a voice myself. You may all know Kevin Czarnecki here on Newgrounds, his name seems to get around alot. He is one of my friends from College and was happy to lend a hand, he also found Katelyn Foley for me, who had just the most perfect voice for this! Jeff Lupetin is a veteran when it comes to voice acting, he's starred in Radio Dramas and video games (like "Red Faction" and more cult notably, Hideo Kojima's "Snatcher".) Ironically, I met Jeff and Kevin in the same place, as Jeff was my Voice Acting for Animation teacher.
Hope you enjoy!
An piece of excellence
your flash is a masterpiece best I have seen in a while.
This is realy awsome!!!
I love the voiceacting and the story in all:D:D
umm uh i cant discribe it illl just called it THE MOST AZMIZING THING IN THE WHOLE WORLD
Color me impressed
Wow noir class story telling and nice Jessica Rabbit lookalike, wish i could pay your cash to do more
