Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) stock hit a 52-week high and touched $33.66 on April 2 that delighted investors. This appears a bit surprising considering the number of challenges that the company's facing in the past few years, right from the declining PC market, struggling Enterprise Service and Software revenue, to the intensifying competition from Asian PC maker Lenovo. So what triggered the stock price to hit a 52-week record high? There's no doubt that the settlement of a $57 million lawsuit made stock prices to shoot upward, but there are more reasons to it. Want the story revealed? Stay plugged in. Settled a Long-Drawn Lawsuit Finally a relief for HP! The shareholder suit that was filed in 2011 has now been settled. What made them file a suit? Actually HP's shareholders weren't happy with the business plan portrayed by former CEO Leo Apothekar. Apothekar continuously kept reducing the sales forecast of the company since the time he joined in September 2010. However, he assured a better future laying plans to spin-off the company's core PC business, shutting down the WebOS mobile platform, and buying the U.K-based business software maker Autonomy Corp. This didn't look like a realistic proposition given the shrinking sale forecast. And it goes without saying that majority of the directors strongly opposed the Autonomy purchase as they thought that HP was not in the position to embrace software platform. Apothekar, who was expected to navigate the tech giant out of troubled waters, failed to perform and shares plunged significantly due to lack of catalysts. Automatically, shareholders had to bear the consequences, who then chose to file the lawsuit. HP resolved the issue with its investors and then mutually agreed to settle it by paying them an amount of $57 million. This helped HP to hold back investor confidence that was once at stake. The company is also optimistic to settle another shareholder suit that was filed in 2012, which would further cheer investors. What is the other positive development suggesting better time for the company? Looking at 3D Printing Space HP plans to venture in 3D (three dimensional) printing arena that has long been dominated by players like Stratasys (SSYS), 3D Systems (DDD), ExOne and Dassault Systemes. 3D printing is primarily a prototype of an object on any material base such as plastic, nylon, glass, gold, or silver. Experts are quite excited about the technology that has gained traction lately, although the foundation was laid years back. Market research firm Canalys expects the market to generate $16.2 billion of sales by 2018, up from $2.5 billion last year. Another market research firm Gartner sees end-user spending on this technology to amplify in the coming years. The predictions are enough to lure tech companies to put their valuable money into it and Hewlett-Packard doesn't want to miss any chance to boost its revenue. The current HP chief Meg Whitman plans to announce the 3D printing roadmap by this June. She is confident that HP's 3D printers will deliver good quality products faster. Quality of the product and the time taken to deliver it are the two main challenges that the industry is currently facing, and HP seems to have resolved it to an extent. HP currently dominates around 40% of the 2D printing market. And since it has exposure in the printing business, transition into the 3D platform would be easier. And the company's huge cash pile would allow it to spend more in R&D to make it a profitable business. Good Quarter Performance HP first-quarter 2014 results that beat the Street expectation gave immense joy to the company and its investors. Although revenue was a notch below the year-ago level, its declining trend of its PC segment completely reversed with a revenue growth of 4%. The PC giant continued to offer new products that eventually pushed the segment sales upward. The quarter's adjusted earnings grew 10% to $0.90 a share mainly due to continuous cash containment programs. HP also amassed a cash balance of $16.2 billion, up from $12.2 billion in the preceding quarter. Is HP a Dark Horse? It's quite early to say anything regarding HP's ability to turnaround it business, but one shouldn't deny the potential of this tech behemoth. Currently, the stock's 1-year return is more than 50% and the upward movement is expected to stay. HP's huge cash position, ability to settle lawsuits and venture into a new technological area raises hope for a brighter future. Stocks Discussed: HP, SSYS, DDD,

"Good-bye my daughter dear," she said As tears welled up in her eyes "It's time for me to go to sleep This must be no surprise The good Lord knows my battles And my health is ailing still He's given me so many blessings I've passed them to you in my will I'm sad to say good-bye For we have shared much joy Remember me to Sarah My grandchild I love and enjoy I love you my daughter These years together have been sweet I'm so glad you love the Lord And again we will meet I'm not afraid of dying 'Cause I know that in a while Christ will call me from my grave I feel my life has been worthwhile For I taught you to seek your Father To help you through every trial He'll always be there to guide you With never a denial I leave you in His hands", she said As she gently kissed her daughter's hand Her eyes closed very slowly Against cancer she'd lost her stand She'd been a wonderful mother Teacher and true friend Faithful to her Lord And gracious to the end.

My name is James, born 1961 In Inverness, a small Scots town To my father Andrew, and my mother Beryl And Billy my brother, a pair of devils In 67, we woke one night Our house was ablaze, full of orange light Our neighbour next door, for whatever reason Started a fire, it must be crazy season We had too move to a caravan park By this time it,s three, to make a new start My mother Beryl decide to leave But the three of us left, never bothered to grieve In the next few weeks, we ended in court Two small children, in a marriage abort We were asked to choose either Dad or Mum But we ignored the parent, who went on the run As we left the court, to start a new life We felt sorry for Dad, as his illness was rife He never told us that he was unwell It would upset one of his boys, as the future will tell Then came the night all parents dread; Being told one of his boys is nearly dead We were going to a boys club, on a Monday night My brother was running so far out of sight I turned the corner to see him ahead No!! he's been hit by a van, Boom's Boom's dead I ran to my father, sreaming and crying I'm finding my life,at 7 - far too trying After the funeral, and with my father unwell We left Inverness, our eyes a swell To go as two, and not three as before It's like Mother Nature closed a door So we headed west, to a place called Fort William Was it in the stars, cause Billy " is " William We moved there, as the air was so pure Hoping my father will find his cure For whatever reason, we left the above We found no Angel or peaceful dove So we headed back to Inverness Fathers health decreasing, life still a stress Over the next few years, i was fostered and loaned In couples houses and children's homes It was really strange in all those places Different people, different faces Then on the 16th of Feb - 76, James, i was told, your dads very sick.

He was sitting cross legged at 15th and Market The people would walk around him during the workweek He sat chatting with his cat The cat was named Mr Johnson and they were friends The man had skin cancer on his nose in the form of a bloody mole And there were days when he sat talking with the Mole The Mole would chastise him saying,"If your mother could only see you now." "If my mother could see me now it would be a miracle,"said the man The man's mother had been dead for over 20 years The Mole loved to get his back rubbed but the man was tired So the Mole gave him the silent treatment And Mr Johnson reached up and scratched the mole "You musn't be mean to the man or I will not feed you Mole."

You wake up to your mother's loving voice. She has a gift for you that she knows you'll love. You close your eyes and hold out your tiny hands. You feel something soft, but cold to the touch. At the sight of it you let out a squeal of delight. A pink ribbon. You wake up to your piercing alarm. It's your high school graduation day. You notice your mother smiling in the doorway. She has a gift that she knows you'll love. Eyes closed, you feel a familiar sensation around your wrist. A pink ribbon. You wake up to the soft sound of weeping. You find your mother downstairs, heartbroken. She was clutching two things in her hands. The first was a letter from the hospital. You saw the other and knew it could mean death, A pink ribbon. You wake up to a methodical beeping. You're in a hospital room with your mother. She runs a hand over you shaven head. She has a gift for you that she hopes you'll love. Eyesight blurred from tears, you know that feeling. A pink ribbon. You wake up to your mother's loving voice. Someone's at the door for you. At the sight of them let out a squeal of delight. The march has come to you! Every person has what you love. A pink ribbon.
I was just a child of four with not much to say But I enjoyed the times I went next door to stay You were so sick in bed and didn't feel quite well But you were strong and played with me so I could never tell You body was full of cancer you were very ill But whenever I saw you, you'd smile and I'd sit still I'd climb next to you on your bed, I wouldn't wiggle I saw the sparkle in your eyes and sometimes we would giggle I'd love to sit and dress up in your necklaces and hats Pretend I was a princess while you would just lay back I was too young to know how sick you really were You never ever let on, you let me play, a lot was just a blur As I grew I was told you loved the time we shared I wish that you were never sick and knew how much I cared.
My mom was a strong woman, and stubborn too, Yet she had a soft side, between me and you. That side she would show, when you least expected, But let me tell you, she was well respected. Mom was quite unique, and was one of a kind, She was set in her ways, so keep that in mind. The youngest of nine, she had gotten her way, Spoiled by her siblings', almost every day. Right out of high school, she had married my dad, Blessed with three children, plus fifty years they had. They both were hard workers, in all that they did, My dad taught himself, from when he was a kid. My mom was a smoker, for forty-six years, Some day it would happen, she'd face all her fears. Lung cancer she had, and inoperable too, Her time on this earth, would be shortened we knew. Radiation and Chemo, had done their thing, Remission set in, tears of joy it did bring. We would go out at night, to shop and to talk, I knew she enjoyed, getting out for a walk. Two years had gone by, after Thanksgiving Day, Her pain had returned, but was afraid to say. She'd lie on the couch; it was strength she did lack, We knew in our hearts, that the cancer came back. We shared lots of laughter, but many a tear, I tried to assure her, she'd nothing to fear. "Please watch over your dad, this one thing I ask." "I know it will be, quite a difficult task." One morning in March, Hospice called us to say, You may want to come, for she's slipping away. For the night before, mom told me to stay home, "Be there for your kids, you can call me by phone." When we all arrived, for a moment she woke, Her eyes said it all, not a word had she spoke. We stayed by her bedside, just holding her hand, "It's time to let go mom, we all understand". A few days had passed, not ready to let go, For it had been raining, but letting up slow. The sun began shining, the clouds disappeared, Opening the heavens, for mom's time has neared. We gathered together, her forehead we kissed, Whispering so softly, how much she'd be missed. "Your time has arrived mom, just follow the light", She left us so peaceful, she gave up her fight. It was time to drive home, in the car we got, Then something had happened, while leaving the lot. Huge drops of rain falling, it had to be fate. They were tears of joy; she was at heaven's gate.
I cried for them this afternoon Knew them since the matinee started Saw them fall in love At first sight, the world stopped Everything was silent at the sight of it They looked and were lovers Later that day on their knees Repeating vows that till today They saw only in throw away plays I cried for them, their lost love But not for mother whose long life ended By the Yankee Sluggers creeping disease What was there to cry about? As the blue ice calved from glacier slabs Creased iron plates, made orphans, widows And most aboard but not me or my mother Or the yet unborn twice told tale Tony was told she died, frantic with fear He called out for her but got Chino instead Saw her running to him, delirious with fear and joy He got a bullet instead, tearing threw his back Breaking his heart in half he fell into her arms She covered his face with kisses and tears And I too wept again for what could have been What should have been for mother, died without my tears For I knew not how to give! Instead to those I gave tears so freely But I knew them since the matinee started Who cried for my three brothers Charley, like Marley dragged his chains around And spent a life time sawing them off, Michael who fell From heaven one day, curly hair and welcoming smile Orphaned by mother who just gave him away Brain dead one day in June, the rest followed six months to the day Brother Tom, large lonesome eyes never saw what the world wondered. Water boarded at age five, he left and never returned Last month got cancer and died exactly one month later. I cried today for the matinee lovers, When I should have cried for them.
I am all alone in this great big world My destiny is being unfurled I am responsible for my plight And what I may do tonight There is no one else to put my shame Only me, myself, and I to blame What did I do wrong you may ask Only I can unburden my task She is gone so you maybe you can see Her lost dreams are my reality She passed on an October day Leaving my boy behind with me to stay It is a daunting thing this boy of mine Looks like his mother time after time I love my boy he is much like me I just want him to be happy I have been told time and time again That I need to reel my boy in I don't see that he is doing any harm He has gone through hell, that's his yarn His mom's dreams were so easy to see She wanted the best for him and me. I have a big guilt because she is gone And left me the ability to carry on I only wish that I would have done the same A love like hers was hard to explain I left her for another a long time ago Before I knew about the cancer so you know When the news came that she was ill I really wanted to take a bunch of pills Pills to ease my guilty pain Of leaving the woman I loved out in the rain. To my son, if you ever read these words of prose Please take the time to ensure that everybody knows That I loved your mother very much indeed And you were the product of love not a misdeed I sit here with a tear running down my face Trying to find another to replace The girl I loved more than anything at all Except you my son, you are the apple The apple of my eye the fruit of my loom My entire existence is for you to bloom Your mother and I are proud of you And are happy you are succeeding in all you do. Son I hope you will forgive me for things I've done I have one life to live and mistakes can't be undone I hope I will be forgiven in the afterlife And be reunited with your mother and my wife. I hope your pain eases as you grow older Never forget, but get bolder You are almost a man in this big world Please learn from my mistakes before you unfurl Your mother and I will be waiting for you With our arms wide open to rescue Rescue you from this world of pain To come live in heaven with us again Duane LaChance Sr. - 2012
Time seems to drag on and on when you want it to go slow but now its moving way to fast because i might have to let you go You've been here all my life it seems everyday by and by so it shouldn't be too confusing that losing you could make me cry Please don't leave me mommy stay with me please stay don't let it be the C word mom you cannot go away I cannot lose someone like you someone who's always been there and the thought of you lying there so cold mom it's just not fair That thing that scares us will be nothing let's just wait and see because there's one thing god won't do and that's take you from me

The following poem is dedicated to my mother, a breast cancer survivor and an inspiration to me! Pushing pink is no ordinary task--- No one wants to live in fear, behind a thick mask. Tell me you love me if no one else does; Think of me if you will just because. Pink ribbons or not, accept my disease! It's not hard to do when you're down on your knees. Pray for my wellness, a life of hope and love; Shower blessings upon me, the joy of a snow white dove. Lay pink blankets upon me and put a pink bow in my hair--- Please take this cup from me, it's too much to bear! You don't have to say goodbye, it's not the end. Always think of me often as your one, true friend. Pushing pink may be a difficult task; Sometimes one must put on a thick mask. Pray for my wellness, a life of hope and love; Shower blessings upon me, the joy of a snow white dove. c10/23/13 Julie Rasley (for Poet Destroyer's Pinktober contest)

If the doctor gave you a month to live Could you keep that to your self? Could you swallow your fear for thirty days And keep your secret stealth "You could possibly make it through Christmas", he said "If there's chemo in your veins" So she silenty took the treatment, once more And still she never complains She'd been in remission for seven years But again it started to grow Her children knew that the cancer returned But her secret, they didn't know She would only tell her brother the news And he swore he wouldn't tell So Christmas finally came and went But it was to be their last Noel Then on the tenth day of January She took her secret to her grave After she died her children were told Of this sacrifice she gave She wanted this Christmas to be the best A Christmas like no other For she didn't want her kids to be sad This woman was my mother
Fingertip to Fingertip, Wanting the right words to slip, Far away is where to jaunt, Holding near is all I want. Fingertip to fingertip, Kiss me here; lip to lip. Heavy times come to all, A dead ends the next wall. Talk becomes cheap, The road life turns steep. Hold up every thought, Soak in all that she's taught. Sitting so close at heart, Reading the cancer as a chart. Fingertip to Fingertip, Giving one choice; to grip, Grip onto reality, As we minus from our family tree. Taking away like a knife, Taking away a loved one, a wife. A mother with patience of a dove, A grandmother with an unconditional love. Fingertip to fingertip, My hearts pumping; Flip, A promise to never be broken, Always close to me like a token. Love will always be near, Thank you Grandma for your care.
He's drempt of his mama in her garden of love, surrounded by angels in heaven above. Peaceful waters flow through a bubbling brook, where her roses grew in every little nook. She cherished the roses he had bought for her in life, capturing their beauty and the colors of their sight. When she was ill he knelt beside her bed, and handed her roses with the tears that he shed. She said don't cry for me it's beautiful over there, where they climb so gracefully up Heaven's golden stair. He visits her grave and places roses in her cup, rest assured with Jesus she forever sup. The rose bush he planted for her still grows today, just as it did when Jesus took her away. No sickness nor pain she can smell once more, as she embelishes in her roses surrounded by her door. She said plant you some roses in rememerance of me, as you stroll through my garden waiting for you I'll be.
she sits on my shoulders, wrapping, twining long legs warm round my neck so tight at times, I cannot breath she looks long in my eyes deep and intent past the glass as if to discover everything to pull it all up, to study it is truth a product of vanity, some kind of futility as is said sometimes I see nothing unless it sees me and she is so much of my system right now
just want to start off by saying, we all know the dangers of drugs and alcohol, there is this one substance though, just one that you have to be 18 or older to buy. I am talking about "The Cancer Stick" better known as cigarettes. Most of the older people in my family and others also smoke cigarettes like its nothing at all, I never realized it caused cancer until older years, but when I found out it was too late, many of my family members developed lung cancer including my close grandmother. That woman would smoke a pack of cigarettes in the snap of a finger, but the thing is she has been doing it for over 20years I would assume. The day I found out she was dying of the disease I was not surprised, but yet she is my grandmother so I felt great sorrow. When she passed it shook my soul, but we know we must move on. The thing that boggles my mind is that the government regulates these substances knowing the dangers, and what do you get a large number of statistics on the deaths of those related to legal drugs, ex: alcohol, prescription drugs, cigarettes etc. But if it makes profit distribute it right? The death of my grandmother along with the death of my great aunt both due to that cancer stick, has changed my mindset drastically on the way things are set up in our system, I wish I was able to talk to my grandmother and aunt one last time, one last time to tell them to put that killer down and resist that mentality, but I couldn't, why? Because they are addicts, it would take strong support, but see we didn't have good family support. So unfortunately helping my grandmother mentally was a fail.
An afternoon stroll with a friend on a heated day, Her hair perfectly swaying to her giggle bounce Holding her tummy, simply stating "I have a baby on the way" Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs The sun shining inside and out So lucky she felt that day, she has a baby on the way Baby's daddy holds mommy's hand Says thank you honey, I love you so much Our baby is lucky to have your heart And I'm so blessed to wear your band A visit to the doctor turned perfect joy into shock You have cancer he told her You won't live with this life in you Sit soon with your husband and have a talk Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs. The sun shines brightly on this day Cause she still has her baby on the way Her husband crying uncontrollable tears Loving her so He could never ever let her go He can't choose he doesn't want to lose His wife or his child She knew for her this baby was a voice A wish she made so long ago A wish come true And there was no one telling her what to do It was ultimately her decision, her choice Six years have passed, and Emily asks, "Daddy, when will I see mommy?", Today my sweet angel, Today Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs The sun still shining on this day as Emily kneels to pray For mommy Mommy had made her choice And daddy still hurts so bad, he misses her smile, her touch But he holds Emily today with Mommy's light warming them both His deep indescribable love for Emily sustains him On her birthdays Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For Emily The sun still shining on this day her hair perfectly swaying to her giggle bounce, as she plays,
You walk the world cold-heartedly not thinking to mourn the life of which you chose to end before it was even born. What if it was a little girl? She could have been your best friend. Big blue eyes and piggy tails, she could have had your grin. Or what if it was a little boy who loved his Mommy so..? But Mommy didn't love him back, she didn't let him grow. She could have been a doctor, and found the cancer cure. He could have been a rock star, and around the world he'd tour. They could have cherry-topped the lives of a loving couple somewhere who tried and tried but couldn't seem to have a child that was theirs. But you're still "Mommy" either way, so in heaven they'll wait for you. To meet you, and hug you and hear you say "My baby, I love you too."
Pink! Under a blue tint, sitting in eight seats Me, plus six, minus one is my family Dust to dust, now tears to tears Only 50 short, hard and painful years Symbol of pink outlined in a basket Tisk for a tasket, twenty-three hundred dollar casket A gift to the world, God's newest baby Hell or heaven, there is no maybe Now life is gone, happy in a new home A soul to her body no longer belongs Light, pale pink lets cross it in a mink Never tie my strings in a knot, because that's what took you so to think But before you go, let us lace you with pearls And drip you with diamonds and make it aware to the world That Breast Cancer has no name, nor a face Just as a lump on your body doesn't deserve a permanent place Dedicated to Ms. Kimala Thomas
These words were once the feelings of a woman created through fear, Put on paper for the reality when told death was near, She couldn't accept the last thing the Dr. had to say, Wishing he would take back the last sentence she began to pray, Not quite ready to let go of her family and leave this world behind, As the cancer destroyed her body these words are what laid on her mind, I wonder what's the matter with me?, Nothing seems right the way it should be, Each day my mind seems to get worse, It's as if there is a curse, Deep down inside I know the truth, It's hidden in a cubicle or a booth, I know if I just had someone to talk to, To let it all out yes that would do, I need some time to be alone, To be by myself to be in another time zone., Years after our Mother passed on this poem she wrote was found, Hidden away waiting for the day the Lord knew we were bound, He knew when ready we would hold it dear, for every word we read we shed a tear, Realizing now how alone she must have felt in her time of need, Forever she's in our hearts showing her my love with every word you read.
When I preyed to you to save me, you laughed When I prayed to god, I was ignored as well. So I learned that I would always be alone in this world. Every day filled with secrets I could never tell. At ten I could drink your friends under the table. I was barely afraid of what would happen in the dark. I knew you were too drunk to hear me scream And afterwards you refused to acknowledge my marks. So I stopped trying to fight, I didn't make a noise. Because they would hit me less if I was quiet. Soon I was filled with your same need to escape. Every day I was on a search to find it. If it promised oblivion, that was all I asked. I immediately consumed it and waited for release. But every time it wore off, I'd find myself there again Always exhausted by my daily search for peace. At first I misconstrued it for trying to get away from myself Until one day I realized I was really running from you. The spread of your fourth stage cancer of hatred and malice And your unrelenting cycle of cruelty and abuse. Your perpetual blame laid on me for your own mistakes Finally had succeeded in taking its toll. Years of fending for myself, succumbing to weakness Had blackened my once pure soul. For you I could harbor nothing but contempt, disgust. The same lack of empathy you showed your own child. I saw that you were at fault for my years of torment. I made your rage, hatred, disregard appear mild. I could never give you a strong enough taste. All I wanted was for you to feel my Rapture. You tried to silence me once again, tried to lock me up But I wasn't weak anymore and I refused to be captured. I left you to your misery, I relished the fact That leaving you with no one to catch you next time you fell Was the most pain I could ever wish to conflict you with Because then you would finally have to face your self.
This is a note to mummy. To say, 'thank you so very much'. I will miss your sweet kindness, And your soft, warm touch. As you lie there in your bed, Smile as you read this, Goodbyes are very hard, But cherish my one last kiss. You were my everything, And, yes, you still are, And when you are in heaven, Hear my voice from afar. Thank you for all you've done for me, For loving me so well, No one, not anyone Can break our little spell. Our spell is cast on hope, Trust and perfect love, And when you see the lord, May he greet you with his dove. Oh, mummy, please don't go. Don't let cancer take you, But if you really, really must, I'll say my final goodbye. Daddy sends his love, Well, he would if he only knew, But I was afraid to tell him, mum. After what he did to you… So, as you lie there in your bed, And as you slowly die, In my prayers, you will always be, For I am sure to cry…
About my mother who survived breast cancer. One of my heros. You laid there motionless as I sat, crying, by your bed./ I watched as the chemo dripped into your vains.../ They were poisoning you.../ Every night you used to tuck me in,/ tell me how my stuffed animals would go out on adventures while I slept.../ I knew those days were gone.../ I still remember the day it all started./ Average day at that hell of a middle school./ You pulled up, I got in the car, it was quiet, I knew something was wrong, then the words came out of your mouth.../ You had cancer./ From that moment forth, day after day, week after week, Treatment After Treatment./ I saw you withering away before my eyes./ What used to be a beautiful head of hair,/ had become skin./ You aged, my mother was changed./ Now although my mother is better now,/ I've watched as several people left this world by the hand of this disease.../ Too many children have had to watch a parent wither away before their eyes,/ And lost them./ My Heart Goes Out To You,/ Live On.../ It's all they want for you.
I bought my house for its mirrored walls in the master bath from which you could fancy yourself as a forties' film star, your flawless body soaking in billowing suds, or stepping into a glassed-in shower, large enough for a tryst with Tarzan, be he resident of a nearby tree. I imagined Don Perignon cooling in a basin, and me: Maureen Sullivan, with or without an Ape Man, poised for my swinging life, coupe in hand. Instead, stumbling in half-light toward morning ablutions on the quotidian blank page of my life, mirrors conjured up not Hamlet's perturbed, parental spirit, but a woman with my mother's face. In her summer frock, frenzied with flowers, prim white hat, and a crocheted bag in the crook of her arm, she is standing on the sidewalk outside my grandmother's white- columned house in Georgia, where she sought safe haven before a failed life, Jack Daniels whiskey, and the cancer monster claimed her. "So easy to spoil" it was said, so how is it life did not work for her? -- "My beautiful, beautiful daughter, wailed my grandmother like a banshee, she, of the stiff, upper-lipped Prussian forbears, as we drove forty solemn miles to lay her favorite in Rebel heaven alongside a great-grandfather who lost an arm at the battle of Cold Springs, his grim-faced wife, bedrock beside him. Peace was the prize my mother never won, no treaty ever offered, pardon long in coming. I see her poised like a dancer, sad history surrounding her, a smile as unreadable as Mona Lisa's under eyes like mine that have seen too much of the sorrow of this world. "It all comes down to this," Anne Sexton wrote, "We ARE our mothers--that's the main thing."
You tell me to show you my pain, Declare me insane when I bleed the veins, Weather change as I speak the rain, Stand over Judy's grave, As I become society's slave, Apply the stress to my chest, Nest and rest as I play with your ********, So dangerous when you live spontaneous, Don't be oblivious and remain cautious, Read the red lines in real times, Don't be unkind to the blind, Cast no judgement because only god can judge me, Speak your hypocrisy so religiously, No real Christianity when it's all corrupted by society, The democracy has brainwashed humanity so cleverly, Money is taken from the poor and given to celebrities, Government acts so rapidly to bail out the monopolies, No one speaks against... afraid of a treason offense, We steadily sit on the fence avoiding deadly objects, Much respect to mother ****ers who are the "rejects", Avoiding the evil serpent is my main objective, From a different perspective you might see evil from different directions, Causing the cancer infection hoarding the evil since we find it collective, Body's torment keeps your emotions dormant, Looking at your friend knowing the mother ****er is an informant, It's important to keep your friends close... enemies closer, Life imprisonment is the jury's final verdict, Try to predict actions from foreign objects, Can't stop it so I just try to remain constant, The instant you take a infant makes you an evil sergeant, The youth get pregnant and claim an accident, Such a statement doesn't justify the child abandonment, Mankind is heading for damnation constantly giving into temptation, Avoiding hatred constipation you become a self medicated patient, You claim I have no advancement since I work at a fast food establishment, Bet you feel real accomplished since I make more then you washing dishes, ****ing *****es don't know the changes I made with multiple faces, I broke out of the cages just to be rejected on blank pages, I crawled out of the quick stand but apparently that means no ambitions, Keep the cheek to tongue speech to all those who remain to leech, I'm not bleak when I speak... Go suck off someone with vanerial disease, I persuaded mother to provide you with visitation, So your frustration taken out on me isn't appreciated, It's so strange how incapable of change mankind remains, Try to rearrange and steer away from the same, Keep unprotected as the semen is injected, Responsibilities neglected as you remain an adolescent
I went a little crazy tonight, a little over the edge. Reading the natal chart prepared for me by an astrologist in Poetry class and it all rang too true, the good and the bad was hard to take sitting there so alone without you without anyone I began to cry but not for your return or theirs, another path draws me now and good or bad I'll have to see it through until the bitter end or until it no longer matters, until my mother's creeping, bulging, bursting tumors take over the body the breast I nursed the cancer I imbibed my own breast barely saved. What is our goal? the surgeon said, and I said Save the breast and we did. Now I'm in college, at my age can you imagine and I surely have some reading to do and this higher education is almost too much sometimes but I love it and hate that I failed to pay attention for several months and now no one moves around in my space except me and I must have driven away everyone and thing has left me now but I do enjoy my solitude though not quite enough sometimes.
...Awww shoot the Female made me weak This is the harmful plague that I seek Come to think of it I always knew this would happen Now I throw my head back with some cocky laughin Since I was a shorty Before my mom was forty I had colossal drama That came from mama Beatin me for no reason Steadily pleadin Holdin a band-aid to my wound as it wouldn't stop bleedin Come to find out, the woman was weedin I bit back beatin her ass so you know I was teethin Then go to school had 3 girlfriends If I could I would do the 4th grade over again Callin me nappy-headed My reputation was deaded I still attracted them though because I'm level-headed Had the nasty clothes Big snotty nose It didn't stop me from pullin hoes Front chipped tooth Damn the chipped-tooth Years passed I cleaned up Sex appeal up Got in relationships Had lots of dips Virginity gone at sixteen Now I'm a sex machine But this is a disease That needs a vaccine Marvin's mother told me exactly what it means Come to find out I've been lookin for a mother figure This what made this emotion cancer trigger And it all started as a little boy That's when I became the Female's toy A bitch needed a guy to hire, I am who they employ That's why this plague I need to destroy...
A note goodbye A note Wrapped in an envelope Flew from under my door As I grabbed the knob. No name No return address Just a memory That will haunt me Forever. Ripping this mystery open Without the slightest bit Of neatness. A letter Is what I pulled from This case. Written in perfect cursive With indication Of tears Upon the ink. From my mother Whom passes away So many years ago. "To my dearest daughter, Tonight is my last night in this world The cancer is eating me alive While I suffer with my hairless head And my aching body. This note will not be discovered For years to come, When it is in your hands Don't not share it with the world. I love you, daughter. You were my everything. Never forget that. With all my love, Mom" Tears soon fall upon This message, Smearing all it's words And love.
She calls her family together To tell each one goodbye From the oldest to the youngest Her children begin to cry She's fought this fight for many years But this cancer is much too strong Her will to live is fading fast And she knows it won't be long Her daughter asks when she'll be back She's too young to understand Only four years old, a tear escapes As she holds her mother's hand She says, "Mama you have to hurry back, For I'm going to miss you so" She climbs into her mother's bed And begs her not to go Her mother tells her not to cry As she wipes her tear stained face I'll always be inside your heart You'll carry me every place I'll be the breeze that kisses your cheek When sadness comes to call I'll be the smell in the autumn leaves That ushers in the fall I'll be your comfort when times get bad And in everything you lack And as her mother passes away She whispers, "Hurry Back"
That day has been branded when my world did stop I experienced new meaning to that word called shock How that womb through which I was first brought into life has now been rendered so void having gone under the knife While doctors and medicine had been one form of plight living with cancer had imposed its own fright So when her will to live seemed to be giving up the fight My world around me began to look very blight What words and what feelings can overcome that moment of emptiness standing under the sun How naked and shallow does all reality take when your meaning for life gives you nothing but ache What reflections would weigh, when my tears started other than my mother before me, my mother now departed A soul has been released from our world below no longer to bring me her smile with her loving hello
Too far gone His minds so lifted A soul so gifted ,but dragged beneath the ground 6 feet deep lies his intentions He not doing much, just living Not trying much ,but what he's given He doesn't read and has no needs other than looking flying and gettin some b!&*^es But with his momma is where he's living, with no ambition this sits heavy on her heart Single mom working so hard do it all alone, all on her own 18 years all for a failure 18 years giving him what she was failed to her for her son, she lead a life marked with good intentions, but still missed the mark She can't breathe at night thinking about her son, the black tar cancer marking her lungs Out being a fool; slick by the tongue but dull by the brain In her world the clouds are always low, theirs always rain falling heavy on her conscience The mother of a failure...feel her pain Like a mother cradling a still born son He'll never grow; he'll never change All her love in vain Words of wisdom wasted on her bastard son More like his father every day, soon he'll just run away And honestly deep inside she cannot wait She's bitter Cause she's fighting tooth and nail in a battle that's already won The world vs. a mother The world has her son
My tinny girl Let me taking you to your mother's side She's worrying about you Since the last Flowery Festival Let us bring her happiness and joy Stop searching broken dreams In those dirty alleys of New York's alleys Your mother is waiting In the Brickfield of Texas Come to your daddy He's dying and cancer is eating both of them Come home at once without any regret We are going to take you back We're going to forgive you Let's give That child A hearty home.
having made her way out of the nest having made something of herself she rubs elbows with some of the city's finest lawyers balancing her own practice with a sad attempt at having a social life--- she calls home to her mother, whom she visits every weekend upstate, doing her grocery shopping & doing whatever she can for her, the whole while listening to a constant critique of where she should be at the age that she is--- her mother insists that her daughter will not stay young forever, saying she has no fashion sense, always points out that she should try to go to the gym more often & never ceasing to make time to moan about wishing that she had grandchildren, asking why a woman who is as successful as her daughter cannot find a man--- the daughter doesn't respond with anger & instead stays up at night when mother has fallen asleep working on cases & watching her remaining youth drift away, hundreds of miles away from the city she lives in the other five days of the week--- her mother's own cervical cancer which was recently detected now is spreading & she is meeting with doctors in the coming weeks to begin radiation--- her daughter hopes that surgery is possible & wonders if the operation will force her mother into a more compromised position where she will no longer be able to live on her own--- the daughter's life could very well be uprooted altogether & she could find herself stuck back in her home town waiting on her mother hand & foot, while still pretending to be able to practice law--- the clock is ticking & her friends in the city watch their lives prosper, moving on in ways that this daughter can really only dream of, being weighed down by something she never counted on happening when she put it all in motion--- ever the more exhausted, she started drinking a lot of coffee, then moved onto caffeine pills & after energy drinks & the lot didn't work, she moved onto a little coke to try & get herself through--- she tells herself that she won't need it forever, that it's just for now so that she can balance all that is happening in her life.
Jesus called you home today Said your time was up Please walk this way Follow him through the Pearly Gates As you step through Heaven's Door Please remember these few words Mother I will miss you so I'm sorry you had to go You were only 49 years old But your time on Earth was done Now it was time for you to be an Angel I know you'll be there to watch out for me Like you were when you where here I am happy though You don't have to suffer from the cancer and stroke Jesus took your hand and lead you home Showed you a new life to live Even though you are truely missed I know theres holes in the floor of Heaven And your my guardian Angel Watching out for me through my troubled times You are still my guiding light I love you mom but know its time Cause Jesus called you home today
(Pink Ribbons and White Fluff) Bright blue skies with Brilliant white pillows of fluff, Set the stage that glorious day. Friends lined the streets To cheer her on Her Mom watched From the comfort Of her hospital room. Tatum's heart was filled With the passion to run. She set her goals High that day. Even the strength Of ten men might Not have won On that day, The humidity Was high. She didn't have The heart to lose. She'd have to race Up her flesh Engine very high And then shift it Swiftly to cruise In order to win This zealous race. Her Mother's blues From the challenges Of breast cancer Gave her the Enthusiasm To run for the Advancement of Boobs that day. Her mother had the Courage to kick the Booze years ago, But breast cancer Was not as easy. Tatum's chance For raising the funds For the advancement Of breast cancer research Was her main focus, That bright glorious day. It would be an honor To help find a cure For such a ruthless Disease that women Succumb to yearly. Warm streams of tears Mixed with salty sweat And tangy Gatorade Decorated her Face that evening, When she was Presented with a Check and a bright Pink ribbon trophy. She placed second In the race, But that Was a start. The smile on Her mother's face Was what really Filled her heart with White marshmallow Fluff that glorious night.
without you mother its so hard to bear this awful pain to not have you in our life, is a harder heal to gain you left us so suddenly at the young age of 45 to hug and hold you in my arms for just a little while to kiss your cheek,and maybe see you smile no more heartache, no more pain, even though cancer is to blame god needed another angel, so he called your name and you had to leave behind all those you truly loved when heavens gates opened for you from up above even though we'll miss you, i know your in a better place i cant wait till the day i see your beautiful face. so rest in peace my dear mother until we meet again because without you mother my love will never end
The mask that i wear is about not expressing myslf, i can't do it alone i need some I can't do this alone I need some help.My grandmother has cancer and goes through a lot of pain and agony, no longer can she take care of the family. She moans and groans, never does she laugh. I could see why: who would laugh with pain like that. I could see the african americans now running to freedom, they weren't slaves nobody could keep 'em. Like moses who freed over 300 slaves, she stayed in the water where she would wade. I can't wear this mask any longer, to take it of i must stay stronger.
Not happy not unhappy not satisfied not unfulfilled being a cancer makes me susceptible to the energy that surrounds me it also makes me aware of my downfalls i am a baptist but hardly pray i am a Christian but don't remember the last time i sat through a service I am a mother yet have not given birth yet i carry too many sins to burden my father with the sins of my mother have followed me no she ain't no addict no she ain't a hoe she aint nothing but a woman who loves too much i am of my mothers breast i am of my mothers worst and her best i am part my father yet my mother does not care to realize i am a hustla not cause i need to be but because i can i am a bitcc not cause i mean to be but to be a bitcc is bitter sweet I am a beautiful woman yet only skin deep i have made grown men absolutely weak i am not a savior if i was i would have been there when Katrina hit built a boat bigger than noahs ark and sailed out of that place but it wouldn't have been free of charge because to whom much is given much is required I would have been there when Sean Taylor got shot to be blunt i would have let him get hit but not at his life's expense not at the cost of his daughter living a probable legacy of "absentee daddy" or growing up only knowing her fathers past as a man who just started turning his life around not at the sheer belief that anything he did in his past deserved what caused that breath to be his last now see i'm no savior cause i would have had the tongue to talk those 9 eleven high-jack asses into jumping "in the name of Allah" these are my thoughts opinions are like assholes that brings me to Kanye West i don't know that brother And confidence doesn't mean arrogance but-shouldn't he have regurgitated the lessons of beauty he was taught back to the person who taught them to him A beautiful intelligent talented creative human life lost fame was the cost some times smart people do dumb things sometimes i don't recognize my own blessings sometimes i forget to say thank you to my guardian angel sometimes i don't listen I just speak
SINCERE AP I said I'm sorry or what was done But I guess it wasn't sincere because I'm being destroyed by the bitterness in me. Although I hide it with a smile, a joke, or laughter when in reality I'm continuously in sorrow crying on the inside because I've cried so much my tears have become dry and I programmed myself to make my tears go in reverse so I only cry on the inside Some days it's easy to hide and some days it's not It's like a cancer rapidly killing me mentally It would be easier to be true if you didn't give so many empty promises If you talk to me and not at me But I'm not occupied to judge Just to forgive and ask for forgiveness It's just hard to forget But I will stop trying to forget, so I can look out for the same thing from happening since I was 7 A continuous cycle that has been going on Yet I will dig deep in the black hole that I have formed with the bitterness that has tried to consume my soul And apologize: For the lack of communication hiding my feeling Excluding one of you like the brother of the prodigal son And forgive: For missed birthdays, your days, graduations, and communications With saying this a ton has been lifted Unfortunately it hasn't been said so I maintain with the weight of this unnecessary bitterness Living life on the edge because tomorrow is promised to one and that one is no me So I'm endangered of dying in regret and without reconciliation of my FIRST TEACHERS
As I sit and write I find it hard to tell-a story of a man a story hard to sell as a child fatherless was his greatest gift -you see his mother was both, as if through good times and bad-the woman alway made him fill he had a dad stand strong,stand tall- loving words she gave as she never would crawl, she knew her fillings she could never show-you see tears were never part as you know, she worked hard and did her best-but time after time life brought her a test, he left when the forth was three months old-days were hot as the nights were cold another man leaves another child-yet she was positive always with a smile, seven kids she gave life-seven kids yet left lonely and cold ...the forgotten wife, poverty and cancer were her biggest fights-I think it was loneliness in the night, as her kids grew and left her alone-most cried about there dad never being home, with there life's lost in regret-one moved forward giving her the up most respect, time went on as her eyes faded like night-he could see she no longer wanted to fight, she dried her tears and put on that smile-you know son I felt this way for awhile, listening to her he seen life took it's toll-his mom his light grew old, as tears fell from all eyes- lying her to rest he remembered being by her side, he found happiness as the birds carried her away-moms gone to a better place today no more tears no more lonely nights-looking around he seen this was now there fight, they all raged and cried-not this one he had opened up his eyes, to this day there still looking-for him his life was her smile and up he was looking, years have past and came the news-the eldest father was ill and dew, as they asked with remorse-he never bated an eye he never lost changed course, it may sound mean even a bit cold-but you see his dad passed as the story told, only one made him who he is-she rest above with a smile just like his, he has no regret or anger-he didn't know the man who was his father, nothing bad to say nothing good-she was my dad and this I understood.
Doctors are Beautiful Nurses are Beautiful Flowers are Beautiful Balloons are Beautiful Bright smiles are Beautiful Clowns making funny animals figures are Beautiful Friends holding your hand are Beautiful Moms Dads Brothers and Sisters are Beautiful Chemotheraphy is Beautiful Never giving up the fight is Beautiful But whats most Beautiful is Bald being more Beautiful Tribute To Cancer Survivers and Victims May They Find A Cure RIP Mama 1934 -2005 Luv Ya
Two days before Christmas Eve in New York City. A little girl named Hope had the heart of a giant at the age of seven years old. Hope and her loving parents where all together decorating the Christmas tree. Hope asked her mother, "Mommy will I ever see Jesus and all the angels". "One day when it's your time", said her mother. "It would be nice to visit grandma again", said Hope. Her mother told her, "You know she's always looking down on you". "Really", she asked her father with a big smile. That night Hope woke up with a stomach ache. "Daddy, daddy my tummy is hurting again", Hope cried to her father. He told her, "Alright let's get some medicine from the cabinets". A little while later Hope got really sick. She was taken to the nearest hospital. The doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong. Running tests over and over. Still nothing showed up on the screen until they x-rayed on her stomach. Finally an answer was found, but a cure was not. It was all too late for little Hope. She had developed cancer and it was on the final stage. Any moment would be time for her to go. Her parents cried in deep sorrow, thinking how to tell their child that she's going to die. Hope's parents walked in the room trying fighting the tears from their eyes. They asked their daughter, "Sweetie do you remember about the place called heaven?" "That's were God lives", Hope said Her father said, "Well pretty soon you're going to take a trip there". She asked, "Will I get to meet Jesus and all the angels?" Tears began to rolling down their eyes as they hugged their little girl goodbye. The funeral was held on a beautiful Sunday morning. Hope's mother couldn't bear the pain any more. The next night she had a dream about her daughter. "Mommy I'm coming to tell you that I love you", Hope said. She continued, "I know you miss me when you cry but forever I will always be with you". "Tell daddy I love him too and grandma sends her love". "I got to meet all the angels and even Jesus too". "It's almost time for me to go back". "Don't worry about me because now grandma and I are watching over you".
Her lips once kissed away my salty tears, and spoke comforting words in my ears. They would brush against my fevered brow, They're coldly still and silent now. Her hands once held my tear-stained face, and smoothed stray hairs back in place. Talented strokes, artistically blessed, They're folded neatly now upon her chest. Her arms once kept my fears at bay, and swung me around on happier day. They hugged, carried and embraced me with pride. They're motionless now by her side. Her legs kicked balls and danced with me. They ran races, jumped rope and climbed trees. The familiar sound of her leisurely gait, They're unbending now and solemnly straight. Her bosom once harbored a calming beat, Where I knew I could always retreat. Where my sleepless head once found solace, Now it's silently still, frozen in place Her clothes once held a comforting scent. The soft smell made me feel content. Playing dress up on a rainy day. Now, crisply starched they will stay. Her body's cancer did unfurl, and painfully took her from my world. A closed lid now hides her frail frame. Forever gone. Mom is her name.
And the cancer crept up Like a thief in the dark It violated that body Right from the start. The cells became twisted They didn't know more And the body succumbed To the death at its door The mind went to panic And dangerously played A hard game of torture To the bodies dismay The thinking and anger Were there of no means The wildness and tears then Screamed out of a dream The doctors all steps in And did what they could They cut and they hacked And left what still stood The treatment was started And suppose to be good It made that poor body Feel not like it should It was sick and distorted It cried out in pain It screamed out for mercy No more of this game Now then it lays there And all the pains gone The cancer is dead now In this life it won.
You meant so much to all who knew you! You were special and that's no lie! You brightened up the darkest day. And the cloudiest sky. Your smile alone warmed hearts. Your laugh was like music to hear. I would give anything, Absolutely anything, to have you well And standing near. Not a second will pass When you're not on our minds. You love, we will never forget. The hurt "they say, will ease in time." Many tears I have seen and cried. They all poured out like rain. I know that you are happy now, And no longer in any pain. Knowing all of this doesn't make It any easier for those left behind to Deal with the reality that you are Really gone. Mother, how I miss you. Every waking day. I curse the Cancer that took You away. I miss your warm hands. I miss the talks we had. I miss the times when words were Of no need. And I hope, my love you'll always feel. Sitting here thinking about you. I hear you call my name. As I turn to see who's calling me I see no one, Only hear your voice. Still your calling out my name, Only louder. As the tears rolled down my face. I realized your trying to tell me Your safe, happy, and out of pain. Although I will always love you And miss you. I know it's time to let you go. Continue your journey, knowing You will always be in our hearts.

Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2004-2013 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2006-2013 Tenable Network Security, Inc.
Synopsis :
The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security-related patches.
Description :
Markus Meissner discovered several potential buffer overflows in some
image decoding functions of ImageMagick. Decoding a malicious BMP or
DIB image or AVI video might result in execution of arbitrary code
with the user's privileges.
Since imagemagick can be used in custom printing systems, this also
might lead to privilege escalation (execute code with the printer
spooler's privileges). However, Ubuntu's standard printing system does
not use imagemagick, thus there is no risk of privilege escalation in
a standard installation.
Solution :
Update the affected packages.
Risk factor :
High / CVSS Base Score : 7.5

LOLS! Pretty much what would happen if SM was realistic at all. "Hold on villain I'ma change m'clothesandgetmyhairdidrealquick,K?" Love this toon, very cute, very funny. Hope to see more.
best sailor moon parody i've seen yet it was both insulting and tasteful and the animation was very nice feel bad for molly though (dont know the japanese name)
Finally...this is something I always wondered about in any cartoon or show where the hero or heros are facing a foe and decide to spend over five minutes transforming into a stronger form. I mean, do they actually just stand there and just watch them transform, and if so why? I always imagine someone asks why they don't attack, and they would say it was rude or inapporate....or even just have this conversation of sorts.....but yeah, seen it happen all the time, and always wondered why they just stand there during that period of time....especially when it seems life or death moments.
great flash btw. :)

Global Leadership Crisis: Dave's Daily
The further down the road we go without confronting problems head on, the more difficult things become. Globally, there is a lack of political will, honesty and leadership. It's the Achilles Heel of the election cycle where politicians and central bankers are too afraid of making serious decisions fearing they'd lose their jobs. We go along with band-aids, useless stimulus, money printing and hope. It's BS and smoke and mirrors policies. If your life was on the line you'd do what you could to save it, wouldn't you? But in our global political world, being honest with people doesn't pay with votes--they mislead you with weak policies and Kool Aid spin.
"Trust us" is their mantra.
Trust us? Not a chance. Their credibility is shot.
It's no wonder investors are fleeing markets. Over $200 billion in equity mutual funds have left the markets since 2010. As I update our Top Ten ETF lists by sector, I see assets under management (AUM) declining 25-45% just in the last four months. The great October stock rally was a "eurozone is fixed" mirage. Thursday markets received mixed economic news in the U.S. as Jobless Claims fell somewhat (higher previous revisions again and people dropping off the rolls like flies accounts for some of this) and a poor Philly Fed Survey (3.6 vs 9 expected and previous 8.7). Housing Starts were unchanged, and frankly we don't need more home construction. The eurozone and U.S. congress remain at the epicenter of current troubles. France wants the ECB to be the lender of last resort in the euro zone while Germany doesn't. Spanish bond yields climbed to euro area record at 6.80%. Meanwhile the congressional deficit committee remains at a stalemate over just coming up with a pittance in deficit cuts. The process is laughable as are the "talking points" participants. Stocks hit the skids as HFTs were in full gear. And, you probably could care less that its options expiration Friday but this enhanced the sell-off Thursday. Hardly any asset was safe from selling including commodities where crude oil dropped 3.67%, gold fell 3%, silver 7%, copper 3.5% and so forth. The dollar was flat if only due to repatriation to Europe but U.S. bonds were quite strong. You could pick a few downside leaders but financials (XLF), materials (XLB) and tech (XLK) will do just to get you started. Volume was the heaviest on the week so far and breadth per the WSJ was quite negative with some sectors at another 10/90 day.

Freed Soldier Bowe Bergdahl Back In US
US soldier Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, who was freed after nearly five years as a Taliban captive, has arrived in Texas from Germany.
Sgt Bergdahl arrived early today at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio on a flight from Ramstein Air Base, a Pentagon spokesman said.
The 28-year-old is expected to be reunited with his family in his native Idaho.
Sgt Bergdahl was captured in Afghanistan in June 2009.
He was freed by the Taliban on May 31 after the Obama administration controversially agreed to release five Taliban leaders held at the US detention centre in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
The prisoner swap, combined with allegations that Sgt Bergdahl had deserted his post in Afghanistan prior to his capture, sparked a firestorm in Washington.
The outrage reportedly prompted threats that even forced officials in Sgt Bergdahl's home town of Hailey to cancel a planned homecoming celebration.
The soldier has been undergoing treatment at a military hospital in Germany since his release.
The Pentagon said he will "continue the next phase of his reintegration process. There is no timeline for this process."
Earlier this week, US defence chief Chuck Hagel was forced to defend the prisoner swap during a congressional committee hearing on Capitol Hill.

setting up levels on a three way active system
Any one experianced in measuring and setting the output levels.?
Ive set the tweeter and mid drivers levels with farfield acoustic tests at about 0.7M. The question is how to set the bass drivers levels, of which there are two wired in series in a common box. |

Think you might wish to share with us what your configuration is? A big box with two L-pads on the back? Bi-amped? Tri-amped? EQ?
Naturally, I check the flatness and cleanness of electronics with some care as far down the circuit as I can... to the speaker terminals if they are showing (exception is ESLs, of course). A Denon test-tone CD gives me a CD-to-oscilloscope complete system picture. For sure, you want to confirm your cross-over channels are tracking and otherwise identical. But I have never found any instrumentation at all useful for final acoustic tune-up except for a bass sweep tone band I've been listening to for 53 years. I also have some pet recordings - like with bells or music boxes - that tell me pretty fast what my tweeter level is doing.

Be good to know where your crossover point is. For example in you are the 700Hz region you can do what you have been doing. You need to set the crossover for the optimum transition between drivers. The room effects on the bass are secondary. Get the transition right and the rest should fall right into place.

OK that doesn't help. Can you run pink noise and have an RTA available?? I have a couple of biamp set-ups crossed at 300hz I use an RTA to set levels with. It works well enough and you should be able to get close using program material.

This is the same as doing a ungated resp test, which includes room effects, which make setting levels impossible.

Why? Do you not hear the room, too? It counts in the overall level.
One caveat, your ears are not omni directional, so take that into account when using an omni mic.

I'm a huge believer in measurement- I use it right up to the point where I have to listen to music. Then, it's all ears. I have a level control on my active crossover for lo, mid and high. One of them will always end up at max, so I start with everything at max and just tune two of them down from there with a variety of music. Naturally it's not that simple because I also moved the crossover points somewhat, not to mention moving the speakers around. Though I don't believe in "time alignment", I do believe in directionality caused by the location of the tweeter. IMO, being able to move the tweeter in and out by a few inches is highly valuable. To get really happy with the system probably took a good few months of fine tuning. (I did do some sweeps to be sure nothing was wildly wrong. In the past I've used third octave measurements, but concluded I just don't like flat response.)
I may be barking up the wrong tree, but at least I'm barking! |

All my sentiments too but I'll say it is a wise post anyway.
Why do you suppose microphone flat is not perceptual flat? Or are we talking about mic flat versus personal joy? Footnote: after I diddle with the many crossover parameters on my Behringer CX3400, I like to fine-tune the knob settings by meter. Otherwise, there might be some irregularities and it is never feasible (or possible) to sort them out by ear after.
