Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. OMFG! The action was non-stop in this installment of the series. I was amused by Valkyrie's reaction to her reflection receiving her first kiss. It seemed like it was well deserved on her part, because of her hooky playing habits; good intentions or not. The ending well the book had an unfortunate time flying across my bedroom. Off to the next, and wanting a decent resolution to this end. Cheers Pretties! Great series - wish our library owned more of them I can see, in an objective sort of a way, that this is a decent enough series. But even now, three books in, I haven't managed to really connect with any of the characters. I don't feel much of an investment in their successes or failures and, really, don't feel like I know them very well at all. The most interesting thing about this particular installment to me was the thread throughout it that it is not okay for a fourteen-year-old girl to be living her life like this. Not that Valkyrie is a convincing teenager, but it's interesting to have that aspect of her chosen life laid out so explicitly. Because it is quite, quite ridiculous and foolhardy and I'm interested to see where they go with that, at least. Derek Landy has definitely done it this time. With Faceless One, he was able to captivate the audience with what Valkyrie had felt throughtout the story. I felt kinda lost in this story, I didn't connect enough with the characters and it just left me feeling a bit meh. Skulduggery and Valkyrie investigate the deaths of teleporters and find that they're getting fewer and fewer. It would appear that someone plans to bring the faceless ones back and the powers that be don't believe Skulduggery and in fact are getting in the way of solving the crimes. It's not bad, probably if I had read it closer to the last one I would have enjoyed it more but the series is losing a push for me to keep reading. I do plan to read book 4 at another stage but right now it can wait. no reviews | add a review

I removed everything and connected 1 ESC to motor 1 connection. I checked ESC.. 5V was OK. Nothing happened unfortunately. I've attached a photo of the damage I've done with the Al screw. Could this have caused my problem? Are there any specific points/components I could check? Thanks. |

I'll do that! My solution had been to build a harness (aka the current discussion) and use the (+) from BEC 1 to power the servo. I hope this helps somebody else! Cheer! SLCPilot |

Hi guys, tested the board and I can tell it is really worth the 30 bucks !
The result of the maiden with P 60/70 and I 30/20 for roll/pitch and defaults for yaw here:
and the hover after some PI tuning here
Finally I understood that the default settings for roll/pitch P values may be okay but not for the I values. P=150, I=0 can work even for quads, mine are now 140 and 0 for all axis. What is NOT working at all is autolevel, I had to switch it off completely after a few tests because it was dangerous for control of the quad. What a pity, that the board sells itself with this feature , many people buy this board jut because of that. Of course it is worth the money even without autolevel but it is a mislead for ALL those who want to pay only for this feature. HK should realize this and correct the description, the sell rate of this product would not be reduced even after providing the correct info... |

Autolevel works by using the accelerometer chip. That chip knows there is an acceleration force of 9.8m/sec acting on it all the time called gravity, from that it can work out which way is up provided that there are no other acceleration forces on it at the same time. else it doesn't know which force is gravity. So the autolevel has to wait until all the other forces have died down to the point that the gravity direction is really obvious. This takes time. So every time you accelerate you can confuse the controller as to which force is gravity. It's basically meant for hovering. |

Is it just the photo, or is the left side of D1 burned and desoldered? The scraatch marks near the screw hole are just on the ground, so unless something exle shorted to that, it is not the source of your problem. That said, nylon screws are preferred for mounting FCBs... Cheers, Jim Quadrocopter and Tricopter Info Mega Link Index Quote:

Ah, okay, let me correct myself then. It works that slow that it can not be used in a manner as other FCs like Naza. Because of the big lag it makes trouble while controlling the quad, and as found in many other posts, not only for me.
If you call this working, let it be. |

It might be possible that ground hit the right side of D1. From now on I'll be using nylon for sure. |

I'm a little bit confused by your answer. Autolevel shoud be what it says : autolevel, the ability to level autonomously. It should be an help for beginners pilot, if they have difficulties, to leave sticks at center and the quad level itself. In what I know the accelerometer, assuming it is a 3 axis one, should know the attitude of the quad, referred to earth reference (gravity). I assume it is then a matter of coding. The code should compare the quad attitude with gravity and command the quad to correct its attitude. There are several stabilization boards which can do that. Please have a look at my blog to see several usages I did with the UavDevBoard (more on autonomous flight than at stabilization, but it is great at this last feature too). The code which is being developed for quads on this board is auto leveling and is amazing on this feature, but it is still in alpha. Btw autolevel is working for me. You can see that here. I still did not try it in real dynamic flight, but I don't expect miracles. I don't expect it levels my quad in a millisecond. This probably is the main mistake, expecting a stabilization board do what the pilot can't do. Anyway KK boards are amazing, considering the price. Developing, coding and testing is really time demanding, have a look at prices for closed source devices. Ric |

Run a log on the research stop stuff. A lot of people could use it
ok cool thanks Orange
Yes sir will do. It will arrive today. I will order the acnedren now.
I know everyone will react differently but Acnedren did nothing for me. But, I was also not willing to exceed the dosage after I went through a couple of bottles.
accutane is all you need... give it a bit.. stay out of the sun.. and clear up.
All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.
Accutane from where
Accutane is SUPER effective.
Heavy how much accutane do you use or have you used? For how long?
Heavy did 6 months I think? 40mg a day?
Enlighten me, what is this accutane you speak of and what is it for?

Image Gallery. Martian Rock and Dust Filling Studied with Laser and Camera Scientists used the Chemistry and Camera (ChemCam) instrument on NASA's Curiosity Mars rover in June 2014 to examine a Martian rock "shell" about one inch (two to three centimeters) across, embedded in fine-grained bedrock and with a dust-filled hollow interior.
This graphic combines an image of the target, called "Winnipesaukee," with spectrographic results from using ChemCam's laser on a row of points including the rock, the matrix around it and the material filling it. The image merges a high-resolution, black-and-white image from ChemCam's remote micro-imager and a color image form the telephoto-lens camera of Curiosity's Mast Camera (Mastcam). The ChemCam laser and camera atop of Curiosity's remote sensing mast were about 9 feet, 10 inches (3 meter) from Winnipesaukee when the instrument examined Winnipesaukee on the 654th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars (June 8, 2014). Image of the the Day - Gallery. NASA Goddard Scientific Visualization Studio. Here's why the Mars Curiosity camera is so outdated. When we first saw pictures from NASA's Curosity mission to Mars, many of us asked, "That's it?"
Yes, the images weren't as detailed as we wanted, but they were from another planet, so we happily gobbled them up. But why does the Mars rover feature paltry 2-megapixel sensors on its main imaging cameras? The decision stems from planning of the rover's systems back in 2004, Malin Space Science Systems project manager Mike Ravine told Digital Photography Review.

Here are three ways to generate job leads today - even within the next 10 minutes - if you're willing to take action.
How soon do you want to get hired for your next job?
Today? That would be nice.
Yesterday would be even nicer, right? We all want instant results.
Well, I can't promise you'll get hired in an instant, but I can give you three ways to generate job leads today - even within the next 10 minutes - if you're willing to take action.
Here they are ...
1. Call a former boss
Today - and every day this week - pick up the phone and call one former supervisor from any job you've had since age 16. Tell them how much you enjoyed working with them, and then ask for advice on your job search.
If you know anything at all about human nature, you know that people love compliments and they love to be asked for advice. So your former manager will be doubly flattered by your call and inclined to favor you with a job lead or two.
When looking for advice, do NOT ask, "Do you know anyone who's hiring?"
Instead, ask something like this: "I'm looking for a help desk position at a mid-size company within 20 miles of Cleveland. Who do you know that I should be talking to?"
The more specific you are about the job you seek, the easier it will be for others to help you.
I know this works - I did it myself 12 years ago. I called Ruth, my supervisor from a college internship eight years prior, and asked her for advice. She was very gracious and offered solid leads for me to pursue. If I hadn't called this former boss, my job search would have suffered.
2. Call a former client
If you've dealt with anyone who buys anything from your employer, you know these people can be a rich source of job leads.
Customers who have seen you in action - and presumably didn't think you were so incompetent that they took their business elsewhere - can steer you toward very targeted job leads. All you have to do is ask!
This worked just last month for my brother, who was looking for an inside sales job after being laid off. He got on the phone with a former client from a previous position and was quickly offered a job ... selling to his former employer. How's that for serendipity?
Do this today: Write down at least three favorite customers from every job you've ever had. Then, call one of them, ask for advice and ask them to meet for coffee, if possible. Tomorrow, call another. You should have solid job leads by the end of the week.
Caution: If you're working now, never, ever call current customers for job leads, no matter how trustworthy you think they may be. This will almost always get back to your boss and get you fired.

Boeing 787 set for first biofuel-powered flight tonight — Engadget
Biofuel in planes is hardly a new idea, but when Boeing's latest and greatest aircraft gets in on the green game, we take notice. That's right, a ANA 787 Dreamliner is currently preparing to take off from Everett, Washington this evening and will make its way across the Pacific to Tokyo powered by biofuel. Well played, Boeing, we're all for celebrating Earth Day a little early, and it's always good to see someone giving Sir Richard Branson a run for his money.

With households able to watch movies on small and large screens in private homes, at least one movie theater company says it has found the secret sauce in the luxury theater market.
Wehrenberg Theatres' first "five star lounge" opened in 2010 in St. Louis. Featuring plush, heated leather recliners, cocktails, gourmet food and digital menus at their fingertips, theatergoers 21 and older get to enjoy smaller crowds — about 30 or 40 — for a slightly more expensive price: $16 for an evening movie, as opposed to the $10 average price in Wehrenberg's traditional auditoriums. For matinee shows, the luxury price is $12 and the price for regular auditoriums is around $7.
Wehrenberg is constructing its fourth and fifth five star lounges in its St. Charles 18 Cine that will open in the St. Louis metropolitan area in April or May. That theater will share the luxury amenities that its sister theaters have, including satin waterfall curtains, pictured above at its Galaxy 14 Cine in the St. Louis suburb of Chesterfield, Mo., which opened in October 2010.
Another one of the company's theaters in the metropolitan area, Des Peres 14 Cine, was one of the favorites among St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporters who reviewed the growing local market of luxury theaters.
"Little touches like a discrete, in-table call button for servers and an LED light on menus make this dine-in experience a standout," wrote Evan S. Benn of the Post-Dispatch.
Kelly Hoskins, vice president of marketing for the company, said it's nearly impossible to find a manufacturer that makes waterfall curtains in the U.S. these days. But the 106-year old company insisted on finding a piece of "old vaudeville."
"My boss insisted to find a company to have the feeling of intimacy," she said.
She added that the theaters "strike a balance" between a family-friendly environment in the traditional auditoriums and luxury in the premium auditoriums for those 21 years old and over.
"We call it a luxury theater for date night and special occasions," she said.
But do mixing alcohol and movie theaters make for a rowdy movie experience?
Not so, said Hoskins.
"We've not had a problem, at all, and we've been open since 2010," she said. "We've had wonderful audiences."
Part of the reason is that people are paying a premium for a ticket and, with a smaller audience of perhaps 40 or so, "they tend to be a responsible audience," Hoskins said.
If anything, "they eat a lot, they enjoy dinner and a few cocktails," she said.

It's hard to say that phrase without thinking of some stunning landscapes saturated with shades of blue and green. Coos Bay is an incredible beach deal since the town has recently had a major economic shift away from shipping to tourism. While not a traditional "tourist trap," there are a number of deals to be found in what feels like a small town. What's nice about Coos Bay is that you can really immerse yourself in the culture of the Northwest. Check out the lighthouses at Cape Arago or the Umpqua River to do a little learning while you're enjoying the famous state parks that surround them.

Prayer for All of Humanity
Beliefnet member LadyLovelyBug
I pray for all of humanity to one day feel the pulse of the Mother Earth in their feet as they tread. I pray for mankind to find the faith to believe in the messages carried by their dreams and to see beyond the visible world. I pray that everyone I come in contact with can walk away with much, or at least some, of the happiness that lives within me. I pray for peace, acceptance, and tolerance for all who express their love for the higher power (whatever that name may be). Most of all, I pray for an end to the violence and depravity that darkens many souls. Peace be with us all!

No Trivia's Friday Five
Kanye, Kanye, prescription drugs, and an art-rap outsider
For the second week in a row, I am going to use this space to mourn the death of a weirdo cult figure only tangentially related to hip-hop. This time, it's director African-American filmmaker Jamaa Fanaka, best known for the 1979 prison fight flick Penitentiary. Dialogue from the film is sampled on plenty of hip-hop songs and it's the origin of cult rapper Lil 1/2 Dead's name. In addition to some sequels to Penitentiary, Fanaka made Welcome Home Brother Charles, an absurdist drama about the fear of black masculinity and the United States' ugly history of medical apartheid; Black Sister's Revenge, a good-girl-gone-bad tale that never pandered to its female protagonist; and an early, experimental short A Day in the Life of Willie Faust, or Death on the Installment Plan, which gives the gritty, straight-shooting Superfly the avant-garde Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song treatment (watch it here). Fanaka also infamously sued the Director's Guild of American for discrimination. If simply being a black filmmaker with a head full of odd, subversive ideas didn't kill his career, calling out Hollywood most certainly did.
G.O.O.D. Music (Big Sean, Pusha T, Kanye West, 2 Chainz) "Mercy"
"Mercy," presumably co-produced by Kanye West (along with some guy named Lifted, who according to every website on the Internet, is a newly signed G.O.O.D. producer from Phoenix), like most great rap singles right now, is an awesome-sounding whole bunch of nothing. But it is also the best awesome-sounding whole bunch of nothing. The only respite from the evil, regal sound is a sample of Super Beagle's "Dust A Sound Boy," diced like a Black Eyed Peas track for a few seconds before the song downshifts into a cruel, chopped-and-screwed hook. Otherwise, you're pretty much beat into submission by blasts of bass and money-burning boasts. When it comes to the raps, well Big Sean is Big Sean, and Pusha T is Pusha T, and woah — there's that Super Beagle sample again! For Kanye's verse (which is Kanye being Kanye), the whole thing molts into a rave remix of Giorgio Moroder's theme to Scarface, wrapping up with 2 Chainz, who is inexplicably on a hilarious tear right now, making reference to the old-school video game Rampage, and boasting, "All this Polo on, I got horsepower."
Kanye West. ft. DJ Khaled & DJ Pharris "Theraflu"
Tucked between this track's PETA-baiting and smart-dumb statement on black economic upward mobility (by way of Ma$e) is a nice, big chunk of magnanimity. Kanye, never the loser, even when he is the douchebag and the asshole, sincerely wishes Wiz Khalifa, now with Amber Rose, some goodwill. Then, he professes that he's in love with Kim Kardashian, and like a scheming super villain, admits that he considered getting big brother Jay-Z, the guy who (sort of) signs the checks of Nets player and Kardashian ex Kris Humphries, to screw the goof over for his indirect transgressions to Yeezy's heart. This is being viewed as a diss, but it isn't. Here's Kanye, mocking his hubris, admitting to just how petty and hurtful he can be, giving you a look into his dark, twisted thoughts when he feels wounded. He's good at that, isn't he? I shouldn't give a shit about any of this insider gossip blog crap, but Kanye actually turns it into a kind of touching theater.
Starlito "Nortriptyline"
Named after a drug prescribed for depression (and migraines), "Nortryptyline" is best summed-up by this thesis statement from Starlito: "Love's the worst drug they got out right now." The Nashville rapper details the way that lust and romance make people downright evil ("My momma's ex-boyfriend, he used to rape chicks / Her and her little sister, but they wouldn't say shit / Momma wouldn't believe her, and until this day, it's something they won't allow her to look in her face with") and provides some twisting, turning second-verse storytelling that traces A.I.D.S. from a fucking-around ex-con to a newborn baby. Total melodrama, but Lito's sincerity ("Make love, fuck sex," he declares), plus a lonely horn rolling through producer Trakksounds' beat, totally sells it. From Mental WARFare, the new Starlito mixtape, which the street-rap jokester released on April Fool's Day and charged $100 for (now it's free). Imagine if Lil Wayne just kept mining his 2005, thug-weirdo polarities — that's Starlito.
Willis Earl Beal "Ghost Robot"
While so many nefarious, blog-endorsed hustlers/musicians get a pass, it's weird how everyone's bullshit detectors suddenly started working again with the arrival of Willis Earl Beal, an absurdly talented vocalist and steampunk soul visionary. How does this guy going on a show like The X Factor make him less of a legitimate weirdo? Someone who consciously hopes to become "an underground cult legend," as he says in that Chicago Reader piece, is surely quite different from the rest of us. And if a mannered teen oddball awkwardly mixing blues and noise and rap like King Krule gets the CMJ crown, I'm really not sure why Acousmatic Sorcery received so many side eyes. On "Ghost Robot," Beal chants and rhymes, teasing hip-hop with references to "chillin' like a villain," G.O.A.T. MC Bob Dylan, and a rude beat of the sort that gets knocked out on lunch tables somewhere, anywhere, everywhere. Mark Richardson of Pitchfork suggested this was reminiscent of the Last Poets' "proto-rap" (I'm reminded of Can's Malcolm Mooney), but it also sounds like it could be rap from the future, after the apocalypse melts all the MPCs.
Zilla "Drank In My Cup"
The generic title to this Zilla Shit 2 track belies a fairly warts-and-all ode to sipping syrup. He paraphrases Rick James via Chappelle's Show ("Cough syrup, what a helluva a drug!") and comes pretty close to social responsibility — for a tribute to a potentially heart-stopping, prescription-strength party drug, at least — with this half-warning to lean n00bs: "Don't knock it till you tried it, but don't start if you can't maintain." The Block Beattaz' endlessly creative production matches his knotty presentation of drank (at different points in the song, Zilla nearly falls asleep at a red light like Layne in River's Edge, then passes out at the drive-thru, and just generally, stumbles around). Save for a slurred vocal on the hook, they avoid every sizzurp sonic signifier, mostly communicating the in-and-out-of-consciousness swerve of promethazine with fuzzy effects and a sludgy Seattle guitar riff.

"I think everyone already knew it was possible to print something that looks like a jet engine."
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
"I think everyone already knew it was possible to print something that looks like a jet engine."
No word on whether the thing was ever powered up, or is simply a neat toy.
"will have to cite what regulations could possibly have been preventing Ma Bell from providing better service"
But it's not even that: regulations prevent innovation directly - that's just one of their indirect & unintended effects. When regulated as a public utility, the company is to some extent protected from competition (and thus the need to innovate and improve service).
If you think back to those transitions (like suddenly cheaper long distance), they coincide with -deregulation- rather than new -regulation-.
"if you actually HAVE competitors"
Well, it depends on the market area.
But think about it - should ISPness become a "public utility", do you honestly expect more or less competition to evolve there?
The competitors should make each other nervous.
The government squatting more regulation on us all should make us all nervous.
... but the converse does not hold.
error bars cannot compensate for questionable underlying assumptions
Am I alone in seeing it as an absurd concern for state legislatures to ponder? If the price of having a "state university" is having elected politicians micromanage academic issues, isn't that a little too high?
I assume you have a deep well of information to justify that little ditty, but think we just can't handle it. Thank you for protecting us.
Homeschool! (State monopoly on education would be vile.)
Thanks for the grammar tweak, but I believe I was using the terms correctly. Here, "ipso facto" modifies the "that is" as an adverb, not "evidence" as an adjective.
You could've abbreviated those last two paragraphs to "I disagree, because XXXX". You just forgot the XXXX.
Now now, don't call them names. They're so well-intentioned.
One can't proceed from the informal to the formal by formal means.

Pavonia median real estate price is $77,251, which is less expensive than 99.1% of New Jersey neighborhoods and 88.6% of all U.S. neighborhoods.
The average rental price in Pavonia is currently $795, based on NeighborhoodScout's exclusive analysis. Rents here are currently lower in price then 90.6% of New Jersey neighborhoods.
Pavonia is a densely urban neighborhood (based on population density) located in Camden, New Jersey.
Pavonia real estate is primarily made up of medium sized (three or four bedroom) to small (studio to two bedroom) townhomes and single-family homes. Most of the residential real estate is occupied by a mixture of owners and renters. Many of the residences in the Pavonia neighborhood are relatively historic, built no later than 1939, and in some cases, quite a bit earlier. A number of residences were also built between 1940 and 1969.
Pavonia has a 15.9% vacancy rate, which is well above average compared to other U.S. neighborhoods (higher than 76.2% of American neighborhoods). This could either signal that there is weak demand for real estate in the neighborhood, or that much of the housing stock is seasonally occupied, which can occur in some markets dominated by colleges or vacation homes. Either way, if you live here year round, you will find many of the homes or apartments are empty for all or a portion of the year.

Acute Viral Hepatitis in the United States–Mexico Border Region: Data from the Border Infectious Disease Surveillance (BIDS) Project, 2000–2009

Get AccessAbstract
Little is known about the characteristics of acute viral hepatitis cases in the United States (US)–Mexico border region. We analyzed characteristics of acute viral hepatitis cases collected from the Border Infectious Disease Surveillance Project from January 2000–December 2009. Over the study period, 1,437 acute hepatitis A, 311 acute hepatitis B, and 362 acute hepatitis C cases were reported from 5 Mexico and 2 US sites. Mexican hepatitis A cases most frequently reported close personal contact with a known case, whereas, US cases most often reported cross-border travel. Injection drug use was common among Mexican and US acute hepatitis B and C cases. Cross-border travel during the incubation period was common among acute viral hepatitis cases in both countries. Assiduous adherence to vaccination and prevention guidelines in the US is needed and strategic implementation of hepatitis vaccination and prevention programs south of the border should be considered.

"I created my self-concept from the debris of Internet culture," says Bebe Zeva, explaining her identity to GQ. Think about what that might mean—coming from an 18-year-old fashion celebrity—the debris of Internet culture: planking, viral marketing, street style peacocks, freshly-minted GIFs, Odd Future videos, Sad Keanu, hipster puppies. What a frightening realization! But Bebe Zeva's into it: Since age 14, she's pursed micro-fame, debuting as a T-shirt model for alt-culture satire blog Hipster Runoff, then transitioning into a fashion blogger with an arsenal of neo-hippie Lolita looks.
One hundred and twenty-eight thousand pages of Google search results later, she's the subject of Bebe Zeva: A Documentary. She views the Internet as a game and plays it like she's having an out-of-body experience, as if "Bebe Zeva" were an avatar that she controlled. "In many ways, it's very unhealthy," she said. "I'm contrived because I'm aware.... I'm aware of that!" Finishing up her first semester at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Bebe Zeva spoke with us about her "personal brand," authenticity on the Web, and modeling for Hipster Runoff.
GQ: The GQ reader probably isn't familiar with you. How would you describe the Bebe Zeva experience?
Bebe Zeva: Well, that requires me to establish my status, like, my role in society. When I was originally discovered by [Hipster Runoff blogger] Carles, my status was...I don't know, aspiring It-Girl, or probably something lame. I don't think I was very self-aware two or three years ago, but I just chased after micro-fame and along the way learned...I'm not even sure. I wasn't just learning about the alternative counterculture, I was learning about fame in general. So I think now my status has evolved into "Internet Personality." I don't do much in real life. I mostly limit myself to the parameters of cyberspace, because that's where I feel most comfortable...genuine. Ironically. [Laughs]
GQ: Speaking of cyberspace, you're a force on Lookbook, Tumblr, Twitter, and Formspring, plus you're modeling T-shirts again for Hipster Runoff. In a way, all of it requires you to sell yourself. What are you trying to buy, metaphorically speaking?
Bebe Zeva: For me, I think it's a huge misconception that I try to streamline my personality so that other people can capitalize. Personal branding...it's been branded as a technique that marketers use to sell yourself, to make yourself into a commodity so that other people can buy into some idea. But I think for me, it's really just a metaphor, the buying isn't really monetary; it's more validating. Instead of someone buying something I have to offer, they're really just saying, I like your brand. I want to invest in your brand. I want to pay attention to you. I want to affirm that you are an interesting, valid human being. If that makes sense. So for me, buying into the whole Bebe Zeva idea isn't really important... I want people to be interested in it, to tell me that I'm someone worth watching or listening to. Which sounds vain, I guess, but it seems very inherently human. So if people criticize me for it, I'm just like, Oh give me a break, stop lying to yourself, everyone does the same thing.
GQ: So what's the endpoint then? What's the ultimate purpose of existing online to the extent that you do?
Bebe Zeva: I guess everyone wants to keep creating memes and relevant commentary...I don't know. They want to create something that other people can remember them by. And I think once you reach that point of being iconic, maybe that's when you become eternally complacent and stop creating. For me, I got kind of bored trying to pander to the Hipster Runoff audience, so I entered the realm of fashion. I was met with almost immediate success, so I felt like there was no chase... I live for that chase. So very recently—the past three months—I've tried to refocus my brand and enter new realms and make a statement in them. I think that's the same for every blogger, really. So that would be the endpoint: someone being able to recognize that they've had some paramount affect on the way society is perceived, the way the media is perceived, the way celebrities are perceived...very sociological.
GQ: Why is the goal to affect society, rather than doing something for yourself?
Bebe Zeva: Oh, I think it is. For me, a lot of it's been for myself, just to see what I can get away with. I kind of assume that everyone has the same perspective as I do, and it's very oriented around self-awareness. People are surprisingly un-self-aware, and that's why I'm always being criticized...because not everyone is in on the joke. The interview I did with The New York Times was revoltingly tongue-in-cheek, but no one picked up on it, so I was pinned as an air-headed person with narcissistic tendencies. And it was very disappointing to me, so I told myself, Well if they don't get it, they're not worth it anyway. That's kind of a bad attitude to have. But anyway, I basically do everything for social commentary, and I assume that most people on and off the Internet do things for social commentary, but really, they don't. So...I'm in a pickle.
GQ: Right, usually creatures of the Internet happen by accident, but sites like Hipster Runoff exists purely for the social commentary.
Bebe Zeva: Yeah, because it's more validating. Having an effect on society? ...I hate the word "society," I keep using it. [laughs] Having an affect on the entire world, the global perspective—is that not more life-affirming than, I don't know, seeking some square, blue-collar way to be happy? There's just something so thrilling about being talked about and doing something controversial. Having a personal brand...it just seems like that idea is very novel. Most people regard themselves as authentic human beings—not even authentic, they just see themselves as humans. They don't see themselves as potential...I'm not even sure...as schemers. As projects, experiments, or statement-makers.
GQ: Agree or disagree: The Internet makes it impossible for a person to be truly authentic. Like, I will never be as authentic as my grandfather, who doesn't need to think about his "personal brand."
Bebe Zeva: Um... I think no, not necessarily. I get what you're saying, that he's more authentic because ignorance fosters authenticity, because it mobilizes humans to live their lives uninhibited by self-awareness. A lot of philosophers and poets have pointed out that self-awareness is this crippling presence, and I do see it as crippling, but I also see it as stimulating. And, I guess, if the definition of "authentic" is "trying to live without better understanding yourself, to just live for the spirit of living and live to not make a point or live to..." I don't know! Yeah, people who are overexposed are probably less authentic because they're less naïve.
GQ: Right, people become contrived once they're online for enough time.
Bebe Zeva: Yeah, I feel that way completely, and I'm 18 years old. So obviously this is my transitional phase, growing from adolescence to adulthood, and I have no idea what's going on. Like, Am I real? Am I this artificial construct that I invented? I created my self-concept from the debris of Internet culture. I basically created my own environment. I created myself, my personality. So I think, in many ways, it's very unhealthy. And yeah, I'm contrived because I'm aware... I'm aware of that! You know? [laughs]
GQ: Getting out of cyberspace for a second, how's your first semester of college?
Bebe Zeva: I've isolated myself more, but I'm very friendly. I've probably become more invested in the Internet, which is weird. When I was in high school—I did my last two years virtually—I had real concrete friendships in real life. And now that I'm in contact with people every day, I feel like I don't need to have as many physical relationships. So I've kind of distanced myself from everybody and resorted back to the Internet.
GQ: And now you've teamed up with Hipster Runoff's Carles again. Why do you think he chose you to model his new "Dubstreamer" T-shirt?
Bebe Zeva: Uh, well... I'm not sure. I'm so grateful that he did because I feel very endeared to the brand. Carles is somewhat aware that I've dedicated my teenage and young adult years to his little empire. At 14 to 15 years old, I was emailing him, like, every single day, trying to cement my presence in his life. I would like to believe that he's endeared to me and that we have a trusting friendship. I don't think we use each other at all. After this many years, it's a genuine friendship.
GQ: So what do you think of the dubstep-inspired shirt you've been modeling?
Bebe Zeva: I'm excited he came out with a black shirt, because it's a slimming color... hashtag fashion analysis. [laughs] There's no better, more relevant more concept chosen than [the electronic music genre] dubstep...it's very cutting edge. I was fond of the shirt, because it's very ironic. Personally, I'm a fan of dubstep. But I cannot defend the culture whatsoever...that whole bro thing with the red cups and the shutter shades. Like, c'mon. Put a shirt on. For Carles to have come out with this shirt, it's just ironic, because it represents the opposite of what hipsters would pride themselves in.
GQ: What about guy clothes in general? You're well-known for your outfits on Lookbook, so you must have some opinions.
Bebe Zeva: My ideal guy would probably wear a turtleneck, cuffed skinny dark cigarette jeans, and a pair of ankle boots...he would be an artist. I feel like such a naïve romantic. [laughs] He would look artistic or something, you know, like beatnik style. The whole yacht club style is good, but only if you're genuinely into that culture and you're from the Hamptons. If you're just trying to fake it and you're a frat bro at your local college wearing boat shoes, I can see through that. Whatever you wear is a reflection of your character, so just have it well-represented.
GQ: Going back to the Bebe Zeva brand, there's a Vice story about how you cried after your documentary premiered, worried you'd already reached your climax. Do you still feel that way?
Bebe Zeva: No, no... I definitely don't. I don't know why I so stupidly trusted [Vice writer Rozalia Jovanovic], but I made myself more vulnerable than I actually felt. I thought it would be endearing to people who thought I was a stuck-up girl, but it backfired. So I'm not sure how much I can testify to what I said. In terms of that being my climax, I felt like I invested so much passion into the entire production of that movie. That whole scene—the literary community—is probably the one community that I'm distanced from, but the one I'm most fascinated with and would like to create the most lasting relationship with. Even though I've made my mark in social commentary and tweeting and being a fashion blogger, writing and poetry is what I care most about. I felt they were the least receptive to my presence, so that disappointment played into my whole perspective of What if this is my climax? What if my career is over after this? I was humbled. I was 17 then. Obviously, any teenager who's made an audience for themselves on the Internet is going to have an ongoing fear of being irrelevant once they're legal adults. And I think recently, I've been entertaining the idea of being 30 years old and still kicking.

text: 5 SuperbPosted: 13/02/2012I don't usually write reviews, but this film deserves a comment at least!!From start to finish this film keeps you gripped to your seat.. the acting is top notch from all cast members,the photography and filming is beautifully shot and the soundtrack just gels the film together. If your expecting non stop action from start to finish then this film isn't for you.. infact the action is kept minimal, needed when its needed and at times quite violent! but this film is nothing short of perfect. If you want a good, tense romantic thriller with a gripping story, Drive will not dissapoint. This is one movie I will definately be adding to my collection :)

Clean, simple furnishings define the main living space. The Scandinavian-style sofa is manufactured by Softline and was chosen for its stylish practicality: It converts into two twin beds or a king-size one. "Not only do I like the form of the furniture, but it's slipcovered so I can change the fabric if I choose," says Heaton.
The southeastern exposure provides a welcoming glow as you approach the cabin.
To give the bedroom a cozier feel, the ceiling was dropped and drywall was used instead of wood. Drapes provide privacy.
Heaton tried to integrate as many local woods into the design as possible. The ceilings throughout are pine, the doors are hemlock, and the window and door casings are ash. "The warm tones of the polished concrete floors complement all the other finishes," she says.
To preserve the view but still allow for ventilation, the kitchen sink is centered between two different-size windows. The one on the right opens, while the left portion is fixed. The cabinets are cherry, and the countertop is slate.
"I particularly like the window in the shower. You don't feel exposed, but you get to look at the view," Heaton says. A larger window floods the space with light. Its placement was dictated by Heaton's desire to have plenty of counter space and a big mirror. A wall-hung vanity contributes to the room's open feel.

A variety of different-size windows (from the economically priced Integrity window line by Marvin) capture light and the view. "I wanted the windows to work from the exterior but relate to the interior space as well," says Heaton. A channel rustic profile was used for the rough-sawn cedar siding.
A deck that wraps around the cabin almost doubles the living space.

Rodgers: Suarez not for sale
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers fully expects star striker Luis Suarez to be at the club next season.
When he arrived at Anfield last summer, one of Rodgers' most important tasks was keeping the Uruguayan at the club.
You'll be amazed how much money the world's biggest clubs make. Check out the top 20 from 2013.And Rodgers expects to succeed this year, just as he did last.
"Listen, every player has their price but there's certainly no pressure for the club to sell him. We're trying to build that bit of quality so he's not for sale," he explained.
"I don't have any doubts there will be interest in him this summer, because he's up there.
"There's a small percentage of players who are world class and he's in that bracket, so I don't think it will be too dissimilar to when I first came in last summer, with clubs making their interest known.
"People will want to take him, but I think we all recognise how integral he is. The owners have been absolutely unequivocal in their resolve in terms of wanting to keep him."

Have you saw it in your council? I have in mine.

Scouting Divorces
Page Title Module
Yah, it happens.
It is a real sadness.
It's hard to have that sort of conversation with a fellow. Or a lady. Lots of times they seem themselves doin' more good in Scouting than at work or at home. But I've pulled scouters aside occasionally and told 'em that they wouldn't go out on a hike leavin' camp a mess and untended. Sometimes yeh need to tend da homefront.
Marriage is a lifelong courtship, eh? Yeh have to keep it up. Love needs to grow and be renewed.
Perhaps da Catholics are right; if you're really called to service that takes a large chunk of your time, it's better to be celibate.
Unfortunately, I've seen two instances of scouters leaving their spouse for another scouter in the unit/district. In one instance it was really tough on the unit because the innocent spouse was also involved in the unit & the liason caused a rift. Other parents took sides with one party or another. It was not pretty.
Actually, I have one scouter credit me with a save.
I got in a discussion and realized I was quickly being dragged in way over my head. It's rare that I cry uncle and back out of trying to "help" fix things, but I had been having a bad run of luck with my advice of late, so I had the presence of mind to ask "Who do you and your spouse both trust do go talk to about this?" We agreed that that 3rd party was the best option, and I extracted a promise that the one partner would talk to the other about contacting him for counseling ASAP. I said a quick prayer and ran.
The next day, that fella approached me and asked my opinion (in advance if meeting with them) about how much of this was scouting related vs. other marital stuff. I forget what percentage I told him (I was embarrassed to be having the discussion at all), but it was high, and he wasn't surprised. He just said, "Well, it's time to get my money's worth out of that minor in counseling!"
Don't know what transpired after that (aside from a thank you years later), but the lovely couple remain happily married -- to each other a lot and scouting a little. That's a good thing.
Yep, seen it several times. Twice with SM's wearing too many hats at the district and council level, once with volunteers who spent a little too much time together away from their spouses.
If i were a CC, the latter two would have been asked to leave their registered position, since it was common knowledge inside the troop committee.
Can't do much about the district and council guys. But I also don't do much with them.
Easy to spin this as a membership policy example, but if you weed out the folks who can't play by the rules, you can still be consistent in what the policy aims to do.

Top Supplements for Longevity
Dr. Decker Weiss | Apr 16, 2012, 6 a.m.
For those older than 50 years of age, nutritional needs change and the risk of life-threatening conditions increases. It is a time when small chronic issues can become destructive to the quality of life. For some, sight will decrease, hearing will fade, bones will thin or muscles will weaken. But you don't have to accept these degenerations as "natural."
Getting older is natural, moving a little slower is acceptable and even dying at an age over 80 is acceptable. But the mind, the senses and most functions when uninterrupted by chronic inflammation, toxic exposure, oxidation and nutrient depletion are not supposed to fail us. Adding supplements to a healthy diet and lifestyle can make a difference and keep these vital functions healthy.
Four Supplements for Those 50 Years and Older
1. Multimineral with calcium, magnesium and trace minerals
As we get older, we lose the ability to absorb minerals, which helps us maintain our physical frame and connective tissues. Mineralization is the backbone of chemical balance, which, when normal, helps prevent viral outbreaks and muscle cramping. Minerals have decreased from the food supply during the past 50 years to such a significant level, that mineral supplementation is a must in order to maintain the levels which our bodies require.
2. Fat and water-soluble antioxidants
Mechanisms of disease most always involve chronic inflammation and oxidation as their underlying causes. From an oxidation standpoint, the human body has two compartments: a fat-soluble area and a water-soluble area. This is why, for example, vitamin E does not help the eyes, and bilberry or lutein doesn't help protect a person from heart disease. Vitamins E, D3, A, beta-Carotene, K, K2 and CoQ10 are fat soluble, while bilberry, lutein, astaxanthin, zeaxanthin and vitamin C are water-soluble. A good fat-soluble antioxidant, and some vitamin C is the minimum needed, but most people need more. For example, a heart patient may need CoQ10 and an eye patient may need a good ocular formula. All antioxidants, especially vitamins C and E, should also have alpha lipoic acid, the master antioxidant for both fat- and water-soluble nutrients. So, a fat-soluble vitamin along with a water-soluble one with alpha lipoic acid is recommended.
3. Anti-inflammatory supplements
Most chronic issues, including cancer, inflammatory disease, heart disease and autoimmune Alzheimer's, are inflammatory issues. At the turn of the century Americans died largely from infectious diseases such as tuberculosis or the flu. Now, we die from inflammatory issues. Natural treatment can help reduce the risk and improve quality of life. The key is a good anti-inflammatory supplement with a healthy dose of Curcumin and the enzyme nattokinase.
4. Fish oil or a plant-based oil such as sea buckthorn
There is no doubt that supplementing a quality fish oil prolongs life and can prevent cancers and heart attacks. A fish oil supplement is usually preferred over plant-based oils, except in the case of vegan vegetarians.
