Bah! And I thought I actually figured a few words in that narration. Never mind...I did. So could you "disclose" the language you wrote in? I thought it was a German base but could not identify the language.Hope this works?
No Spreken le English muy bien. Iz dis goot?
Ha! I was just kidding guys! Happy firmware day!
Le Mock-up maybe?
German would be Sprechen, can't recall how it was said in Dutch but quite often Dutch sounds like horribly misspelled German. Le English sounds like making fun of French (they say it anglais just to make it sound prettier). Muy Bien is normal, go live anywhere within 1000 miles from the south border of USA, and you'll hear that all the time (and many other places too). Iz diz goot is typical slang level of the US English these days.
42....I immediately knew the meaning, but didn't post. For those who don't know, here is a quote from Wikipedia...
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
The number 42 is, in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, "The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything", calculated by an enormous supercomputer over a period of 7.5 million years. Unfortunately no one knows what the question is. Thus, to calculate the Ultimate Question, a special computer the size of a small planet and using organic components was created and named "Earth". This appeared first in the radio play and later in the novelization of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The fourth book in the series, the novel So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, contains 42 chapters. According to the novel Mostly Harmless, 42 is the street address of Stavromula Beta. In 1994 Adams created the 42 Puzzle, a game based on the number 42.
A quick question tho...The 5D MK II and MK III cannot do this. The feature is being added to the 1D X. You can do it with a Nikon D800.
It works by using the HDMI output, but the output is at reduced resolution in all but the 1D X. This makes direct recording undesirable.
That's incorrect, uncompressed HDMI output will be added to 5D Mark III in April, no plans for 1D X and other cameras yet.
So, after April, 1D C and 5D Mark III are the only two cameras in the Canon DSLR line that are capable of utilising external recorders.
The OP originally asked about recording straight to a laptop, will this be possible with the firmware update to the 5D3, or will it have to be some sort of dedicated external recorder?
Quote from: Canon U.S.A.You shall not alter, modify, disassemble, decompile or otherwise reverse engineer the Software and you also shall not have any third party to do so.
And if someone does, do they get sued or just loose warranty?? And what if someone hacks it in Thailand where USA can't sue? Just asking...
what you do to your camera is your business you only loose your claim to any waranty.
The person that offers modified software/frmware could be sued when that person isn't some anonymous entity on the net.
For what a fool I made of myself, you guys have been great. I'm glad I made the mistake because I never will again.
I'm still confused as to why Canon and other companies don't print onto the lens the actual focal length that will be utilized. I now know that the 18-135mm lens is an 18-135mm lens, but the camera and pictures being produced are not at 18-135mm, its at 29-216mm. Isn't it more "honest" and more relevant to tell the customer what the "actual" focal length(s) the lens will be giving him? Because zoomed out, its not showing 18mm, its showing 29mm. Telling me that it is 29-216mm lens would make more sense because that is what focal lengths are actually being used.

Bachmann Falsely Claims Billions Were 'Hidden' in Health Care Reform
March 10, 2011 - by Donny ShawAlmost a year after the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law, the misinformation campaign about what's in it just won't stop. The most recent example is from Rep. Michelle Bachmann [R, MN-6], who claims that the Democrats snuck more than a hundred billion dollars in the bill and passed it secretly without public review. But Bachmann's either lying or she has no idea what she's talking about because her claims are just flat-out false.

A false claim made by Congressional Republicans that the Affordable Care Act (H.R.3590) will result in the hiring of 16,000-16,500 new IRS agents, who might possibly be armed, is receiving some high-profile and well-deserved pushback.

Posted 772 days ago. luvthesouthdo some research and tell me the differences that would indicate to you that he would not know how to effectively direct those people that guide, fire weapons or analyse the data gleaned from the drones. you do not honestly think that obama is sitting in the war room with his little joystick and video monitor controlling the multitude of drones throughout the world. i am asking you to prove that bush would not know what to do with the data. you can't. would it not be easier to just say "i don't know but since i want to belittle and insult him, i am making this ridiculous and unprovable claim?"

Posted 773 days ago. luvthesouththe truth is munster, ol' W certainly did have the technology and through the CIA used it with some success. the development progressed to the point in the late 90's that it allowed it to be used not only for surveillance but as a tactical weapon able to fire hellcat missles. in 2002, they were used for the first targeted killing which you must approve of since you have remained silent in regards to its use by obama. again you have not disappointed in your hatred of "w" and your willingness to spread falsehoods to smear him at every opportunity. truly sad.....you should move past it....you are wasting alot of good hatred on the wrong president.

BeRightObama has become the world's leading drone warrior, employing more predator drones in his first nine-and-a-half months in office than Bush had in the previous three years. Obama has claimed the right to murder, without judicial review, anyone he has deemed a threat to U.S. interests, making him judge, jury and executioner, and far exceeding Bush's surveillance without judicial review (which also seems to have expanded under Obama). Obama personally selected the individuals to be targeted who were put on "kill lists." Before 9/11, the U.S. had condemned targeted assassinations. Now, they are Obama's signature foreign policy initiative, one that many other nations have prepared to emulate.

My love affair with self-care and wellness began at the young age of 14. After being bullied for most of my childhood, I found movement to be a positive outlet in working through my emotions. Since those early days, I have dedicated my life to exploring all aspects of healthy living. By 18, I was a certified personal trainer and over the next decade, worked in two corporate gyms training hundreds of clients. I learned and experimented with various methods of fitness, such as power lifting, running, TRX and Pilates. These disciplines now play a role in my creation of effective and individualized exercise programs. However, a new passion was discovered the first time I walked into a boxing gym. I was searching for a way to let out my aggression after a bad break-up and immediately became... Read the profile >>
Cycling has played a very influential role in Ryan's life; his passion and energy towards cycling – and fitness in general - shines through in the most positive of ways. Born and raised in New York, Ryan played many sports growing up, but nothing really clicked besides dance. As he neared college, Ryan began to notice that he needed more physical activities to enhance his level of fitness. He began cycling as a way to keep active, and the results astounded him. He immediately became a committed biker! In 2005, he moved to the city to pursue acting, graduating with a B.F.A. in Acting/Musical Theatre from Pace University in 2009. He continues his work extensively in New York theatre while he's not cycling. Being offered a position as a club coordinator at Flywheel was an... Read the profile >>
I have been an athlete of varying degrees my whole life. When I was younger, I swam, rode bikes, ran away from created trouble and played "freeze tag". As I got older I fell in love with basketball, set course records running cross-country, high-jumped, triple jumped, ran the 400m and 800m and even played some football. I went to King's College where I continued to play basketball on a partial scholarship and graduated with a B.S. in Biology. Upon graduation, I moved to Philadelphia where I tried tackling the corporate world. Within these corporate years, I Weekend Warrior-ed with flag-football, discovered my love for snowboarding, played more basketball, hit the gym 3-5 times per week, hiked and kayaked. Many of these activities I still enjoy today. After six years, I realized... Read the profile >>

Taylor guilty: Liberians have mixed emotions about verdict
Some Liberians voice outrage at the guilty verdict of former Liberian President Charles Taylor at the war crimes court; others, who lost family members, say it's justice.
Peter Dejong/AP
Monrovia, Liberia
Liberians in the capital of Monrovia expressed sorrow and anger over Thursday's war crimes conviction of their former president Charles Taylor, who is still considered by many Liberians to be a hero.
The Special Court for Sierra Leone in the Hague found Mr. Taylor guilty of aiding and abetting crimes including murder, terrorism, rape, sexual slavery, and mutilations committed by rebel forces during Sierra Leone's civil war. The 11-year conflict, which ended in 2002, killed more than 50,000, and left many traumatized and maimed.
While Sierra Leoneans are expressing relief, the verdict was not widely welcomed in next-door Liberia. Taylor was also a central figure in Liberia's own – even deadlier – civil war but the country has not pushed for war crimes prosecutions and remained defensive on the subject of Taylor. International human rights advocates say that the victory in the Hague needs to be followed up in places like Liberia where an atmosphere of impunity lingers.
"Taylor's conviction shows that even those at the highest levels of power can be held to account for the worst crimes," says Elise Keppler, senior counsel for the International Justice Program of Human Rights Watch. "Liberia has yet to initiate prosecutions for heinous crimes committed there, including under Taylor's presidency. Liberia should follow Sierra Leone's example so that Liberian victims can also see justice done."

Because he's running for president of the United States. I'm not surprised by this rhetoric, kind of expected this kind of bs.
I think Rand meant to say, "They attacked us with box cutters, we didn't attack them."
Never be afraid to ask simple questions.

Yes, sure did sound like a campaign speech.
And Rand is a much better "politician" than his dad. Rand appears to be able to tailor his message to the audience. Ron just basically said the same thing regardless of the crowd in front of him. I've heard Ron talk about the 1953 coup in Iran orchestrated by the CIA, so I assume Rand knows about it. (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaRmeTV4pi4) Yet he plays the "We were innocent!" card for these Tea Party members. Most people here on the DP know better. We've been causing trouble in the Middle East for at least 60 years!

This solo exhibition of 67 photographs printed on glass coated in liquid emulsion focuses on the frailty of the human condition.
About this project
Photography as you've never seen it before.
Background information
This project began in 2004 with a series of photographs and a subsequent exhibition two years later titled, "A Prelude to Frail Minds and Flesh". These photographs, (viewable here), became the foundation of "Works on Glass".
Shortly after beginning, "A Prelude to Frail Minds and Flesh", I discovered liquid emulsion and its unique attributes. Having fallen in love with alternative processes I started experimenting with applying the emulsion onto glass plates. In doing so I realized that glass was the perfect medium to expand this series of photographs. The glass became a metaphorical symbol, relating to our own fragility. The physicality of glass is hard yet this is only one of its properties, its delicate nature reveals itself when force is applied. This is from where "Works on Glass" emerged.
About the Exhibition:
Works on Glass, will feature 67 glass photographs ranging in size from 3" x 4" up to 3ft x 3ft and a video installation entitled, An Endless Journey on an Island Universe. The exhibition explores the frailty of the human condition associated with the individuals isolation through the private experience. In addition, technology is treated as a Pandora's box and an invasive simulacra which dulls genuine sensory perception. This, together with gender, aging, loneliness, despair and control are woven into contemporary photographic tableaus which summon a confrontational experience on the part of the spectator. Consequently, our existential struggle within a fracturing society is revealed through the gestures of the figures and their environments.
Unlike traditional photographs which are framed and matted, these glass works hang on a wall as a mirror might. Their transparency means the color of the wall they hang on will show through the image.
How the works were produced.
Every image was shot on Fuji Acros 100 film with a Hasselblad 501cm and a 50mm fixed lens. The negatives were developed in AGFA Rodinal in a 1+50 solution. In order to coat the glass in liquid emulsion it was first chemically cleaned in a solution of sodium carbonate and water. Then each plate was cut to size and coated in a very thin layer of gelatin. The gelatin gave the emulsion something to adhere to since glass has a non porous surface. The emulsion is then gently heated in a double boiler to increase its viscosity. Application of the emulsion must be done in the darkroom with indirect low wattage red lighting. The plates must dry in complete darkness with circulating air for at least 24-48 hours before they can be used. Afterwards, exposure and development are similar to standard B&W darkroom prints.
What the money will be used for.
Since all the work has already been produced all of the money will go towards renting a gallery space in downtown Savannah to finally exhibit all of these works together. If this Kickstarter project raises more then $600 the extra funds will go towards printing promotional materials through a local business.
When and Where the exhibition will be held.
The exhibition runs from January 17th - 23rd with a reception on Friday January 20th from 7-10 p.m. @
Little Beasts Gallery
1522 Bull St.
Savannah, GA 31401

When he was a child during World War II, Dieter Dengler had an attic room on a German hillside overlooking a valley. One day an American fighter plane roared past "only feet away," he recalled. The plane's canopy was down, he made eye contact with the pilot for a moment and instantly knew that he wanted to fly.
Werner Herzog's "Rescue Dawn," based on Dengler's experiences, begins early in the Vietnam War, when Dengler is a U.S. Navy pilot stationed on a carrier in the Gulf of Tonkin. At 18, he enlisted to get American citizenship and to fly. Assigned to a secret, illegal bombing mission over Laos, he is shot down, and the film involves his experiences as a prisoner of war, his escape and his harrowing fight for survival in the jungle. He was one of only seven Americans to escape from a Viet Cong POW camp and live. Dengler (played by Christian Bale) scoffs at his flimsy bamboo "cell" until a fellow American tells him, "Don't you get it? It's the jungle that is the prison."
His ordeal includes tortures in the camp (he is hung by his heels with an ants' nest fastened to his head) and an agonizing trek though the jungle, at first with a fellow American named Duane (Steve Zahn), then alone. Herzog makes no attempt to pump this story up into a thrilling adventure. There is nothing thrilling about dysentery, starvation, insect bites and despair. The film heads instead into the trembling fear at Dengler's center.
This feature has been long on the mind of Herzog, who film for film is the most original and challenging of directors. He used the real Dieter Dengler in a 1997 documentary named "Little Dieter Needs to Fly," in which he took Dengler back to the jungle, and together they re-created his escape while Dengler provided a breathlessly intense narration.
Considering that Herzog made both films, it is perhaps not surprising that the "fictional" feature is more realistic than the documentary. With Herzog there is always free trade between fact and fantasy. "Little Dieter" shows Dengler obsessively opening and closing the doors and windows of his house, to be sure he is not locked in. Not true, Herzog told me; the director added that detail for dramatic effect. Also in the doc, Dengler imagines himself being followed through the jungle by a bear, who came to represent "death, my only friend." That seems to be a fantasy, yet Herzog says it was real. But there is no bear in "Rescue Dawn." Too hard to believe, is my guess.
The movie is, indeed, perhaps the most believable that Herzog has made. For a director who gravitates toward the extremes of human behavior, this film involves extreme behavior, yes, but behavior forced by the circumstances. There is nothing in it we cannot, or do not, believe. I was almost prepared to compare it to the classic storytelling of John Huston when I realized it had crucial Herzogian differences.
One is the use of location. Asked long ago why he went to so much trouble to shoot "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" and "Fitzcarraldo" hundreds of miles into the rainforests of the Amazon, he said it involved "the voodoo of location." He felt actors, directors, cinematographers and perhaps the film itself absorbed something from where the shooting took place. Even for his vampire film "Nosferatu the Vampyre" (1979), he sought out the same locations F.W. Murnau used in the silent 1922 original.
In "Rescue Dawn," filmed in the jungles of Thailand, there is never the slightest doubt we are in the jungle. No movie stars creeping behind potted shrubbery on a back lot. The screen always looks wet and green, and the actors push through the choking vegetation with difficulty. We can almost smell the rot and humidity. To discuss the power of the performances by Bale, Zahn and Jeremy Davies (as another POW) would miss the point unless we speculated about how much of the conviction in their work came from the fact that they were really doing it in the hellish place where it was really done.
The other Herzog touch is the music. Herzog recoils from conventional scores that mirror the action. Here he uses not upbeat adventure music, but brooding, introspective, doomy music by Klaus Badelt; classical and chamber performances, and passages by Popol Vuh, the German New Age band that supplied so much of the feeling in "Aguirre" (1972) and "Fitzcarraldo" (1982).
"Rescue Dawn" opened in some U.S. markets on July Fourth. It is about a man who won the Purple Heart, the Air Medal, the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Navy Cross (none of which the movie mentions). Given the times we live in, is it an upbeat, patriotic film? Not by intention. It is simply the story of this man. When he is finally greeted back aboard his aircraft carrier, there is no "mission accomplished" banner, and when he is asked for his words of advice for the cheering crew, he says: "Empty that which is full. Fill that which is empty. If it itches, scratch it."

WASHINGTON (March 24, 2014) — The National Waste & Recycling Association (Waste & Recycling) today confirmed a new industry position opposing local and state government mandates governing "product stewardship" for printed paper and packaging.
Waste & Recycling is the trade association representing private sector companies across all 50 states that collect, manage, dispose and recycle waste.
"Advocates may promote legislation mandating 'product stewardship' programs for printed paper and packaging as a way to increase recycling rates and make retailers 'pay' for recycling—but these kinds of programs are rife with pitfalls and unintended consequences," said Sharon H. Kneiss, president and CEO of Waste & Recycling.
"Our industry has spent hundreds of millions of dollars building, growing and maintaining our nation's recycling infrastructure and the curbside collection programs that have contributed significantly to Americans' generally high recycling rates," Kneiss said. "Meanwhile, we are already generating less paper waste today than ever before, and packaging recycling rates are higher than ever. Complicating these successes through government mandates is a mistake."
Among the concerns raised by Waste & Recycling's position paper on product stewardship programs for printed paper and packaging:
"The waste and recycling industry agrees that America's recycling rates have room for improvement, but mandated product stewardship programs are not the right path," Kneiss said. "Better options include imposing stronger recycling laws on residents and businesses; increasing the size of curbside recycling carts; encouraging manufacturers to use recycled content; and boosting public education on the importance of recycling."

I'm Unfortunate,
and Afflicted;
You're contagious,
and I've behaved,
and rather Unjustly.
Only together a mere while,
And I'm infected,
With every word
of Affection,
that on me you've tested.
Tear me apart
and no longer leave me to suffer,
of this disease you've inflicted;
where I have no choice
But to think of you,
all day,
and in my dreams at night.
Cure me, out of your good will, my lover
for I fear I'm lovesick still.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thigmomorphogenesis (Thigma --> to touch in Greek) is the response by plants to mechanical sensation (touch) by altering their growth patterns. In the wild, these patterns can be evinced by wind, raindrops, and rubbing by passing animals.
Botanists have long known that plants grown in a greenhouse tend to be taller and more spindly than plants grown outside. M.J. Jaffe discovered in the 1970s that regular rubbing or bending of stems inhibits their elongation and stimulates their radial expansion, resulting in shorter, stockier plants.
Growth responses are caused by changes in gene expression. This is likely related to the calcium-binding protein calmodulin, suggesting Ca2+ involvement in mediating growth responses.
- Dr. Arnab Sen, PhD M.D., "Thigmomorphogenesis: The response of plant growth and development to mechanical stimulation", Planta, Vol 114, No 2, June, 1973, pp143–157, Springer.[1]

There are 7 opinions so far. Add your comment or complaint now.
I have an old (1986) disability policy issued under Woodmen and now, since a merger, is under Assurity. I have been denied because the Woodmen policy has a provision that states one can return to a new period of disability after returning to a comparable occupation for 30 hours per week for 6 months.
Assurity claims the occupation must be the same, at the same amount of money as when the disability occurred in 2004 – they pay no attention to what the policy states in 1986 and apply a loose meaning to the terms in the policy so that they can deny.
In order for us to determine if we can assist you with an Assurity disability insurance claim denial, then we need to review your denial letter. The language of your Woodmen disability policy should govern. Contact us to to discuss your disability denial.
My brother had triple bypass heart surgery a few years back. He went to have a stress test and blockage was discovered. Assurity denied his claim, they said that he knew he had that pre-existing condition. I recently filed a claim and I guess I will need a lawyer too.
If your brother had a pre-existing condition and he became disabled during the pre-existing elimination period, then Assurity may have been correct in denial of disability benefits.
I took out a Disability Policy 15+ years ago with my Nationwide Agent. That Policy was transferred to Aurrity several years ago. I have made quarterly payments and never filed a claim. Same hold true for other Nationwide Policies.
I was told by this Agent 15+ years ago that I would get all my Premiums back at age 65, if I never made a claim. Policy is still in force.
I just tuned 65 and the Agent denies it. I now don't know if that is even in the Policy, I am still looking for the paper work. I have not made claims on this policy, home, umbrella, and 2 auto after paying premiums for decades. I don't make unwarranted claims, but I know what I heard. Do I have any recourse?
You first need to get a copy of your original policy and read it. You should also request a copy of your initial underwriting policy to see if the application had anything about a refund of premium paid if you never made a claim. It is a rare option that is offered.
So far not happy with Assurity but will wait to see how much longer it will take to get paid. Been off since June 4 and still jumping through hoops.

Twilight- Isn't it AwesomeTwilight- Isn't it Awesome- An innocent, seventeen-year-old Mary Sue girl named Bella shows up in a perpetually rainy town (in America, not England.)-She discovers that the inhabitants of this town are so desperate for a distraction from the repetitiveness of their boring little lives that they all immediately become obsessed with her and her magically pale skin.- (She pretends this annoys her, but we know differently, eh?)-Bella, our completely selfless and humble heroine, thinks herself superior to everyone in this damn town, describing them as boring, dim and clueless about the OUTSIDE WORLD.- (It's a scary place, apparently.)-Bella then proceeds to fall deeply and inexplicably in love with some guy called Edward, despite everyone telling her to get over herself (and, I don't know, possibly him) and the frequent death glares from his general direction.-Bella then comes to the obvious conclusion that he's a vampire.- (This wonderful vampire admits to s

How can we possibly meet these expectations?!? Well, folks, out of the kindness of my heart I would like to provide a comprehensive explanation on on how to be just like Edward Cullen, to make everyones lives easier.APPEARANCE1. Skin must be deathly pale, resembling that of a cadavers. The best way to achieve this complexion is to spend about six months hibernating in a windowless basement. This may require you to quit your job. And do not fret over your inability to go to the grocery store; Cullen fans find consumption of food undesirable.2. Dark circles under the eyes are essential. The quickest way to attain these black rings is to go without sleep for days on end. Sure, the lack of slumber may upset your emotional stability, but that will only

Abe writes to SMeyer....My dearest Stephanie Meyer,I know upon receiving this letter your first reaction will be to disregard it as some kind of joke. I assure you, however, the return address you see scrawled on the back of this envelope is very real, and so am I for quite some time, actually, despite what your history books may say. But I digress; my existence is hardly the matter I wish to discuss with you. Does the name "Twilight" ring a bell? I should hope so. For that is the topic of the following letter.I must admit, when I first heard about this series, I felt only a mild twinge of irritation: Just another vampire romance novel, I thought-full of inaccuracies and dark, brooding anti-heroes. While I could go on and on with my quibbles about any sort of romance with a vampire, your "Twilight" particularly caught my attention.I'll be frank with you, Mrs. Meyer: it was the most inaccurate interpretation of vampi

The Real Housewives of New York City reunion – and season – ended Tuesday with little drama but mega-closure, with the women addressing their core issues with one another.
Ramona Singer – who announced her marriage to Mario was officially over – and Sonja Morgan addressed their season-long bickering over Morgan's financial issues and business endeavors – a relationship host Andy Cohen termed their "Frick and Frack-tion".
"I should have kept my mouth shut," Singer said to Morgan in a rare apology. "It was wrong."

Just days after Ramona Singer announced that her marriage is over, the Real Housewives of New York City star's estranged husband, Mario, hit the Hamptons scene with his alleged girlfriend.
Mario Singer and Kyle "Kasey" Dexter looked "very flirty" at the Women's Health Party Under the Stars in Bridgehampton, New York, on Saturday night, an onlooker tells PEOPLE. The two were also photographed together in Sag Harbor.
Ramona, 57, first filed for divorce in January after she reportedly caught Mario cheating. Still, the couple (who are parents to 19-year-old daughter Avery) reconciled shortly after.
"All marriages hit bumps, some bigger than others," the businesswoman told PEOPLE in April. "We have a history of 25 years together and we have been very happy."

"Everyone in my family is doing well," Singer started, refusing to say anything further because of her daughter. "Mario and I are together … Let's go to someone else. Thanks, Andy."
When Cohen tried to push the discussion, Singer pushed back.

It was truly a "leg-endary" finale for The Real Housewives of New York City Tuesday, as the season ended with a surprising exclamation when an incensed Aviva Drescher removed her artificial leg and tossed it across Le Cirque.
The season's memorable last leg, fittingly enough, just might rival the insanity of Teresa Giudice's table flip on season 1 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

Hear Pharoahe Monch and Black Thought's Knocking 'Rapid Eye Movement'
The duo's collab comes as first single from Pharaohe Monch's 'PTSD' due April 15
Pharoahe Monch's fourth solo album, PTSD, has the New York-based rapper analyzing how the often unseen traumas of life affect us all. That said, the release's single collaboration with The Roots' Black Thought for "Rapid Eye Movement" resonates more like a fierce, one-off rap spar session; the two emcees rattle off syllables over a menacing Marco Polo production that's hooked around an ominous piano motif. During Monch's rapid-fire blitzkrieg, the MC both references Manchester United's soccer team and moseys into an art gallery only to "piss on a Picasso." Meanwhile, Thought takes shots at Socrates, of all people, by way of philosophical warning shots directed towards Ancient Greece. Call it incendiary rap music, if you will.
PTSD (which does indeed stand for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) is out on April 15 via War Media. Listen to "Rapid Eye Movement" below.

Just bought a Rem. SPS varmint and have bought a few upgrades. Was wondering if an oversized recoil lug would benefit this caliber. I understand the Remington uses a washer style lug that is not admired by some, so i thought it may be another upgrade. So far, i have an HS stock, timney trigger, H-S bottom metal. Does the Rem recoil lug swap have to be performed by a gunsmith or is it a simple job? Thanks

lol, dont worry- im definately not tackling that one. thanks guys.
For general purposes a thicker recoil lug won't make any difference in your rifle.If you were building a custom precision rifle,then they do make a difference. I install larger recoil lugs on all of my Long range/Target rifles,but they are all Savages,and I can do it myself in just a few minutes.Most other brands will require a gunsmith to do the job.
I see. Thanks for the information.

I used this cleanser as a step towards no 3 in this serie. It's great for the skin. I have sensitive, dry skin and it worked perfectly on me. Really deminishes the pores and peels of that dry flakes and dull skin you want to get rid of. Very gentle, but if you haven't tried alpha hydroxy before, start with no 1. I'm a big fan of MD Forte and I use it every day. Will never stop using it, at least not the cleansers.
I just don't know about this product. This is the second MD Forte product I have tried and didn't fall in love with either. The first week, everything seemed fine, but during the second week I started breaking out. My derm told me emphatically to keep using it, that my breakouts were probably jusy hormonal and they would go away. Six weeks later, I am still breaking out when I normally just break out around my period. My skin does feel softer, but appears ruddier and my pores look larger, not smaller. Also, in pictures from my recent trip, my lines are standing out even more. Maybe glycolics are not for me....
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This was a free sample, thank GOD!
I don't know why, but skincare producers constantly think that acne-prone and/or oily skinned people need more oil or creamy substance-junk for their skin? May apply to some people, but for me, I need to stay away from cleansers like Cetaphil, you know, the type of wash that provides you the option to either wipe clean with a wash cloth or rinse off. I tried this stuff, followed the directions, and my skin looked like it was just massaged with peanut butter. Next day, I grew some weird-looking red rashes that looked like a pimply cyst of a whole different variety. So, I walked around that whole day with pimples and a dull-looking crisco complexion. Ugh! Stupid me, I decided to cleanse my face again that night with this crap. Oh! this time, more pimply erruptions grew, in addition, dried skin started to shed. I couldn't believe this was happening to me after using such a fine and highly-regarded product made from M.D. Forte. Needless to say, it wasn't my skin "getting used" to the new product, no, I was having a full-fledge allergic reaction... So, I went back to Neova's Radiant Cleanser (Ahhh, my salvation beauty-reviver)... Took a couple of days, but my skin is back to its original state of calmness. This said, I think maybe the M.D. Forte cleanser was fashioned more for the non-sensitive faces. For me, it was a nightmare.
Thank you MUA! Finally a cleanser that's ACTUALLY helped with my monthly (hormonal) breakouts. Was a bit hestiant at first, but SO thrilled that I bought it. It's a bit pricey, purchased it at a local dermotologist office, however I had to wait 3 WEEKS! Apprantely this cleanser is in high demand...I see why. By the way, I've only experianced mild stinging sensation. Not surprised since I've used so many other crappy products on my face. Update 4/5/10 I stopped using this...only God knows why! Well, my face started acting crazy, so I kept asking myself what was I using way back when my face was clear? I remembered this and went and repurchased...happy to say my face looks awesome once again! Will keep purchasing!
Purchased this item based on the excellent feedbacks on Product Reviews as well as the Message Boards, and have recently (almost 5 weeks) started using MD Forte as well as Afirm and now these products I highly recommend with any skincare issues (clearing up of acne and actual witnessing of fine lines or discolorations disappearing - normally I have used products in the past where I only had a temporary fix, but MD Forte and Afirm get my highest recommendations.) The Facial Cleanser II while gave me a bit of stinging and still does, the discomfort is only temporary but the changes have been incredible. Great cleanser which I consider more of a treatment product then an actual cleanser (not the best choice if you are looking to remove makeup and I always use a seperate makeup remover prior.)
More reviews by HippyChick0u812
I switched recently from dermadoctor glycolic to this MD Forte Glycare 2 cleanser.
I have been using it for about 4 months now and am extremely happy with it. My skin is already very used to glycolics and this works great and exfoliation and anti-aging too. The cleanser itself is a no soap, non oily cleanser and also a non foaming. It is a creamy type. I find it removes all my face makeup easily too. I have seen quite a bit of improvement in my clogged pores which is my big issue. I should say that I'm 42. I feel like this is a great cleanser for me who still has oily skin and an occsional breakout too. It cleans, softens and renews skin by taking off the dead cells. My nose is almost clog free now and it is a joy not to look in the mirror and see all those horrible little clogs :)
I've been using this cleanser for about a month and so far have been very pleased. My skin is very oily and acne-prone, but VERY resistant. I use a pretty large dollop of this every AM and PM over my dry face. Massage it in for a minute or so, then give it another 30 sec or so before using a baby washcloth to rinse off. By this time I am feeling some very slight tingling. My skin has definitely been showing improvement. The tone is more even and my pores less noticeable. I just ordered the III formula hoping for even better results.
Thing I can do without is the rounded cap over the screw on cap. Looks good I guess, but necessary? No. Came off whenever I tried to unscrew the cap, and I ended up throwing it away. I do like that you can see through the bottle (if held to the light) to see how much is left.
This is not an inpensive option, but I don't mind paying for something that works.
This is a good cleanser if you have DRY skin because it contains Glycolic Acid (AHA) which acts as an exfoliant. If you are looking for something to clear up acne, this may not be for you (you need a product with BHA/Salicylic Acid). The concentration of Glycolic Acid in this cleanser is a bit high (15%) which may be more than necessary, so you need to be careful not to get it into the eyes at all. I've also noticed lips are much dryer, which may be from this cleanser - Otherwise, a good product - leaves my skin very soft and smooth!
I was having major breakout problems about a month ago but didn't want to spend money on yet another product that wouldn't work. I found this in the cabinet and within 3 days my breakouts were clearing up and I wasn't getting any new ones. I've also used Facial I before and it took so much longer to work. I have mild rosacea and it's aggravated just a tiny bit, but clear skin is worth a bit of red on my cheeks. I use DHC oil cleanser to take off makeup, MDF II for cleansing (2x day) and then follow up with Olay for Sensitive Skin cream. Since using this product, extra exfoliation (always enzyme because scrubs are too harsh) hasn't been necessary. Am very happy with results and won't be without it again.
If you're trying to decide which to buy -- I or II -- buy II and return and take a step down if it's too much.

I love this stuff! I use it once or twice a week to keep spots at bay. (I have rosacea, so it's too strong for me to use every day.)
