The Tumi Difference
Add-a-bag system
Quickly and easily add another travel piece or business case using our patented Add-A-Bag hook with secure fastened tab closure that holds in excess of 200 pounds. Also, many Tumi business cases and totes feature a back sleeve that slips over extended luggage handles allowing you to stack and carry heavier bags on your wheeled luggage. Used together, these features allow travelers to effortlessly carry two or three items at the same time with one hand.
Easy Glide Wheels
Our state-of-the-art in-line wheels incorporate sealed steel ball bearings and are mounted on solid steel axles in custom-designed, shock-absorbing bushings. They roll smoothly and quietly for hundreds of miles.
Omega Closure System®
Tumi's patented closure system significantly reduces the risk of damage to the zipper. The Omega zipper puller is designed to break away from the bag if it becomes caught. The puller, rather than the entire zipper, is then quickly and easily replaced.
Rib-Tech Padded Laptop Section
Weve added an extra measure of security and protection for your laptop with our exclusive Rib-Tech padding, made from high-compression, energy-absorbing molded foam, in the computer section of this case.
Tumi Tracer®
The Tumi Tracer® is an exclusive, complimentary program that helps reunite Tumi customers with their lost or stolen items. The core of the program is a unique 20-digit individual product number printed on a special metal plate that is permanently affixed to Tumi products. That number, along with the owners contact information, is entered into our Tracer database when a bag is registered with us, and used to help aid in the recovery of lost or stolen items that are reported to us.
Waterproof Pocket
This specially-designed pocket is ideal for keeping wet and damp items, including umbrellas, water bottles and workout clothes, separate from the other contents of the bag.
Aircraft Grade Aluminum Extension Handle
The tubing of our telescoping handles is made from aircraft-grade aluminum, making them both lightweight and extremely sturdy.
Removable Laptop Cover
Our removable laptop cover offers protection for your laptop and convenient carrying options. It can be carried on its own and slips easily into most travel bags, totes and business cases.

New John Lennon App Coming Soon
Thursday, November 15, 2012
John Lennon's letters were put together in a book named, The John Lennon Letters -- now selections from the book will be available in a new app for iPhone iOS coming soon. The app will reportedly include 78 letters in total and will also include: a foreword by Yoko Ono, commentary by the book's editor, Hunter Davies and audio readings from Christopher Eccleston. However, there is no date on the app's release yet.
Meanwhile, Beatlemania will be hitting PBS on December 14. The network will air a special Magical Mystery Tour Revisited documentary followed by a showing of the original film. The film will be restored and remixed with a soundtrack. Paul McCartney, reportedly had the original idea, and Ringo Starr, is credited as the director of photography. John Lennon and George Harrison are represented through interviews over the years and through their appearances in the film.
Magical Mystery Tour Revisited was filmed and directed by Francis Hanly; Jonathan Clyde is producer; Anthony Wall is executive producer for BBC; and Jeff Jones is executive producer for Apple.

Cursed Queen of Angmar, The: 41. To the Victor
Ariashal stood on the white sand beach.
A short distance off the King walked away from her, sand still clinging to his black cloak. She called to him, but he ignored her, instead continuing on towards the palomino stallion. Angry now, she called again; but it was clear that he had no intention of responding. She watched, shocked, as he adjusted the horse's bridle and led the animal off. In one fluid motion, he gracefully swept up into the saddle and began to ride away.
Hurt, confused, she ran after him. The sand here was much deeper than she remembered; it seemed almost to be sucking her down, deliberately trying to keep her from reaching him. She struggled on. Soon the sand was at her knees, then her thighs. She could no longer even see the King; he had vanished into the haze-covered hills.
Desperate, she lurched forward.
The sand collapsed beneath her.
She was falling now, dropping into a huge cavern, sand cascading around her. She could not see a bottom; she could see nothing at all. Plunging to her doom, down, ever down, nothing but sand and gloom and empty air.
Panicked, Ariashal screamed.
The sand vanished. A dream, she realized; a dream, a horrible dream, but nothing more than that. She was safe at the King's side, safe in her bed--
She was in the tiny cell, lying on the cot.
The candle still gave its dim yellow light, the blankets were still worn and rough. How long had she slept? An hour? Three? All night? There was no way to tell. She pulled the blankets over her shoulders, huddling against the sickly dampness of the cell.
She had hoped, desperately, that the events of the last several hours had been nightmares; that she would awaken, warm and safe, at his side. They would share some small talk before readying for the day, and she would await his evening attentions. But no. It was not to be, and would never be again.
If only she had kept him away from the grotto! How could she have been stupid enough to think that they could be there in safety? Ten guards were slaughtered; it was only a miracle that Ferion's assassins had not struck sooner. Why, why, why had they not? Then it would be Herumor who lay at the bottom of the pool, and not the King. If they had only slain Herumor! Then she would be back with the King. Or even--the thought flashed to her--even losing the children would be better than losing the King.
No! She did not mean that. She knew she did not mean that, and for a moment hated herself for even thinking that. And she needed Herumor alive, needed to know that there was someone who could protect the children against their enemies. No, if someone was to die, better it be her-- she was the least important of all.
The movement hurt her head. She tried to sit up, hoping that her headache would ease. The back of her head still throbbed from the blow, and she was more than a touch nauseated. It had been hours since she had eaten, which was not helping her either. She glanced at the basket of food. Apart from the water, she had left it untouched, even though she knew Ferion had not bothered to poison it. No, he needed her alive, at least for a few days.
Eating the bread settled her stomach somewhat. As she ate her headache also abated, though the dull pounding would not cease. Certain now that she would be able to keep food down, she began to work on the apples.
Ariashal considered her situation. She was barefoot; on her left toes was some dried blood, probably from stumbling along the stone floor. Her chemise was almost completely useless. Made of fine, almost transparent linen, it was never meant to be worn in this manner; its purpose was seduction, not concealment. Yesterday's rough handling had torn it nearly in half. Now it was split open from the neck to the hemline; every time she moved her breasts spilled out. She would have to do something to cover herself before Ferion returned.
For a few moments she studied the blankets. They might be old and worn, but they had no holes. And there was nothing in here which she might use to tear one open. No, she would have to think of something else.
What about the old man? Perhaps--perhaps she could lure him into the cell with her. Then she could shove the bottle into his remaining eye, and before he could recover she could beat him with the bucket. Once he was disabled, she could take his clothes, lock him into the cell, and be free. Yes! This she could do.
She stood up. The sudden movement made her dizzy; she grabbed the wall to keep from falling. After a moment she managed to take a single, unsteady step. The floor was still moving, still sliding beneath her. Frightened, she sat back down.
What was wrong? Perhaps the food was poisoned, after all. Or perhaps it was some sort of residual effect--had the Elves cast a spell on her, to keep her unconscious while they transported her to Ferion? Or could it be something else?
One time Adrahil had been chasing his brother around the garden. Imrahil ducked behind a tree, and Adrahil slammed headlong into its trunk. He was knocked out instantly. The King had carried him inside, where he carefully examined the boy. It was, he explained, serious but not deadly; Adrahil would be dizzy for some time, and probably feel weak and sick as well. He would need to rest, and could not play or run about for several days.
Perhaps something similar had happened to her, too. It would explain the headache, the nausea, the vertigo. If that were true, if she had really been injured in the same manner as Adrahil, then she would be in no condition to fight her way out of here. She would not even really be able to disarm the old man. No, he would be able to overpower her, and then she would be completely at his mercy. And she already knew what he would try to do.
Someone was coming; footsteps echoed on the rock floor. Ariashal took the least worn of the blankets and swirled it around her shoulders, wrapping herself in it. It was not a perfect shawl, but it would have to do.
The lock clanked as the key was turned. Instinctively she drew the blanket tighter.
Ferion swung the door open.
"Well," he began, "I see you are awake. And you have eaten. I trust you had a restful evening? Good."
She did not deign to speak. If only she could form arrows with her gaze! She would fill him full of poisoned barbs, until his body was so riddled with them that he was crushed beneath their weight and his blood drained away. Never had she hated anything as deeply as she now hated her brother.
"I have my cloak for you to wear," he continued smoothly. "You will accompany me to my quarters, and there you will be dressed in something other than that blanket. We must meet with your old steward today."
Cloaked and hooded, she obediently followed him from the cell. To her surprise, the old man was gone, replaced with a much younger, sturdier man. She was suddenly grateful for the weakness of her limbs. In her current condition she would have been no match for him.
They followed the path she remembered from yesterday, crossing several large rooms that seemed to be used for storage before coming to a heavy wooden door. Guards flanking it saluted Ferion as they approached. He acknowledged them with a curt nod and ushered Ariashal into his quarters.
His rooms were large and reasonably well-furnished. One room had a substantial table, some chests, and a chair; further on, she could see a heavy wooden bed partially concealed behind some curtains. Overhead an oil lamp burned brightly. He had salvaged some of the worn carpets from the keep, using them to line his rooms against the creeping damp. On the table was a small heap of papers and scrolls; she could see a crude map of the general area lying on top.
Carefully laid out at the opposite end of the table were the King's mithril shirt, sword and ring.
She nearly collapsed at the sight of her husband's belongings displayed as trophies. Ariashal forced her self to stay standing. She must not show weakness, not here, not now; she must stay strong, until she was free of this place and back with Adzuphel, Herumor and her children. Swallowing, she managed to walk onwards.
Resting on the table, the black opal gleamed with a hungry, almost savage, fire. Was it looking for a new master? She shuddered at the thought of Ferion wielding the ring. What had the King said?A man must master the ring, else the ring will master the man.
Ferion closed the door. "I have some things for you to wear."
She looked over at the bed. An old gray tunic, a patched shirt and some stained slippers had been carelessly heaped at the end. Gingerly she picked up the shirt, inspecting it for lice, or worse. Patched it might be, but at least it was clean.
"Put them on."
"There is no place to wash."
He snickered. "The Queen desires her bath, does she? Not here. You will wear those, and be glad for them. Get dressed!"
Ariashal turned to him. "Not with you watching."
He laughed. The sound sickened her.
"I have no intentions of sampling you just yet. I have other plans for you."
Her heart froze. "What? What do you mean?"
He laughed again. "You will see, my fair sister. Now get dressed."
She let the blanket fall. For a moment she considered abandoning the chemise, but decided against it; it was the last thing she had worn near the King, and it was somehow comforting to know he had touched it. Instead she pulled the shirt on, hauled the tunic over her head, slid her feet into the shoes. The tunic was too broad in the shoulders for her; it kept slipping down. Ferion rummaged in one of the chests until he found an old leather belt. She cinched it as tightly as she could, hoping it would keep the tunic more or less in place.
Ferion draped the cloak over her. "Come along. We must meet with Adzuphel."
Obediently she moved towards the door. Ferion retrieved the King's personal effects. "I will need to show these to prove that I have slain the Witch-king, and then I intend to keep them as a legacy for Rhudaur."
"Those are not yours."
"Oh, but they are, my fair sister. I slew him. These are now mine."
"They belong to the King of Angmar." She blocked the door. "You must give them to Adzuphel for my son."
"Why? I have them. Is that not proof enough of my right to them?"
"No, it is not." She folded her arms across her chest. "You must return them to my son!"
"Very well." Ferion's wolfish grin sickened her. He put the sword and shirt back on the table. "Your son can have those. But not the ring. That I will keep."
"You do not know what you are saying!"
"Oh, yes I do. I know what this ring can do. I know it can unleash powers beyond the grasp of mortal men. And I know that you know how to use it."
"I know nothing about that!" She hoped she sounded sincere.
"I do not believe you. I think the Nazgul told you some of its secrets. And I think you can tell those secrets to me."
"Even if I knew how to use it, I would never tell you!"
Ferion closed on her. "There has to be more to it than merely putting it on my finger. He must have told you something. And you will tell me."
"And if I do not?"
He hit her, hard.
Ariashal's head snapped back. Blood trickled from her mouth.
Ferion pulled her close; close enough to kiss.
"You will tell me what you know," he whispered, "else I will forget my manners. And when I have finished with you, I doubt my men will remember their manners, either. Am I understood?"
"Yes," she whimpered through the blood.
"Now then." He released her. "What must I do?"
Desperate, she tried to think. She must not let him claim the ring. "He said--he said that there was--there was only one way to take it. He said--" she grasped at the only idea she had. "He said you--you put it on, and said--he said you had to promise your kingdom to Sauron."
"Sauron is dead." Ferion stroked the ring. Blue and green swirled in the stone. "So that will not be necessary. And even if it were--that is a small price to pay for such power. There must have been more."
"You must--you must say your name."
"And that was all?"
She nodded, one hand cupped over her still-bleeding mouth. "Yes. He only--he only told me once. But that--that was all he said."
Ferion, triumphant, strode to the center of the room. "Very well. Now you will see me fulfill my destiny. Now you will see a new King of the north!"
He held the ring aloft. The opal glittered savagely. "I, Ferion, King of Rhudaur, claim this ring!" He slipped it onto his finger.
And disappeared.
"This is--strange." Ferion sounded awed. "Nothing is the same, and yet nothing is truly different. Except for you. I cannot see you."
"You can see my clothes."
"Yes, but not you. And I can see--I can see other things, too."
She felt the rush of air as he walked by her.
"There are--things--spirits--they must be spirits. I can see them as though they were flesh." He stood near the door, his breathing close enough for Ariashal to hear. "Yes, they can be seen. I always thought such things were children's tales."
She listened as he wandered off. The idea that he had the ring sickened her. She had seen what it had done to Herumor and the King--proud, strong men. Ferion would use it to destroy what was left of Rhudaur, and then take Cardolan and Arthedain as well. They would fall prey to his incompetence, until Sauron brought him to heel and crushed him into subservience. Ferion had neither the character nor the courage to fight Sauron. He might, she realized, actually relish serving the Dark Lord.
"What?" Ferion called from the table. "What are those? What is--No! No! Go away!"
She could hear a soft rustling, a whispering in the air. Cold breezes slipped past her face.
"No!" Ferion's panicked screams filled the room. "NO!"
Someone crashed into a chest. Papers scattered into the air.
"Get away!"
The chair smashed to the floor. Ariashal heard cloth ripping apart.
"Damn you! You are dead! I saw you die!"
The whisperings had turned into a low howl. Ariashal could see strange, filmy clouds swirling across the room.
"Leave me!" The curtains ripped free from the bed. "I slew you! Stay away!"
A wild, hissing screech filled the room. Icy winds slammed into Ariashal. Instinctively she huddled near the door.
"NO!" The chair flew through the air, shattering against the wall. "Go away!"
Something gold flashed across the floor, rolling to a stop at her feet.
For a moment the whirling clouds twisted together into a malevolent vortex. Ariashal heard a loud CRACK, as though lightning had exploded above her. There was a strange stench, as if something had burnt; and the vortex disappeared.
Shaking, disheveled, Ferion stood before her. His clothes were torn; blood ran from a gash on his cheek. "That thing!" His scream echoed around the room. "That--that --that thing is damned! It is cursed!"
Ariashal said nothing.
"You knew! You knew it was cursed! And you did nothing!"
"I told you not to touch it!" she shouted. "You would not listen!"
He stared at her, his eyes still fear-widened. "I do not--I do not want that thing near me!"
She picked up the ring. It felt warm, unnaturally so; the colors of the opal seethed and writhed. Ferion could never master this ring.
"Your son--your son can have that. I will not have that--that thing in Rhudaur!"
"And his other gear?" Ariashal held her gaze steady. "That too will be returned to my son."
"Very well." Ferion held his bleeding cheek. "I will have none of his cursed arms. Angmar may have them, and may their damnation remain in Carn Dum!"

Wonderful Stay
The tenants were very helpful, directions very easy. The Condo was not what we expected but was better than we expected! Our stay was wonderful and I would visit the Florida Keys any time. We would defiantly choose the Keyzee Condo at Ocean Isles again! Thank you for the stay once again! Jenna and Casey

Breakfast with Joe O
Wednesday 30th September 2009. New York. Day off.
Everything blurring into one a little bit. I slept pretty well and got up at a reasonable hour (well, it was nearly noon but it was another very late night, so don't judge harshly) and went across the street to the breakfast pub. I was all but done with my poached eggs on toast and about to depart when Joe appeared, by himself and joined me. It's funny, I've been travelling with Joe since 1982 and see him every day at the moment but it feels like an eternity since we last sat and had a good, uninterrupted chat.
We compared notes on the Giants Stadium shows (which both of us felt went very well), talked about the tour dates for next year which are just being published and then spent a while just talking about the year so far and the tour in general. It turns out that we share the same overall impression that the tour has gone remarkably well, all things considered. Not just on the surface with the generally triumphant reception of the whole 360 experience but also amongst the touring party. Given the humungous scale of the project, it would have been quite understandable if the perception from within the tour was of being just a cog in a machine.
Remarkably though, the morale and general vibe within the crew is the best it's been for years - people seem genuinely excited and delighted to be with the tour and even though it's hard work, they're keeping up with it and enjoying the challenge. I was aware that this was the case within my extended team but it really does seem to permeate the whole tour. It doesn't matter who the band is, on any tour the overall vibe and feeling tends to come down from the top and the fact that our band still care so much about what we're doing out here does seem to make a difference.
After a couple more cups of tea, I walked back across the road and spent the rest of the day in my room putting together the lighting plot for Gavin Friday's show at Carnegie Hall on Sunday. It's a benefit so we're just using the house equipment as bringing in even one more microphone adds a zero to the facility cost. Consequently I've got three rows of lights to play with so colour is my only weapon. It's quite fun doing a lighting plot, even with limited resources. It's like solving a puzzle, making sure that you'll have all the ammunition you need to get through the show (although in truth I know so little about the show that, having finished the plot, I'm still none the wiser as to whether I've got it right).
My head was buzzing a bit when I got done with Gavin's lighting plan. There's been so much going on this past couple of weeks that we all feel a little like deer in the headlights. I was going to go and see Laurie Anderson in conversation with Hiroshi Sugimoto this evening but by 7pm was overwhelmed with stasis. My room at the Hotel Fabulous is a little weird in its layout and rather under-furnished, but is up on the 52nd floor with windows on three sides. I've been sitting here all day, ploughing away with a head full of work, occasionally looking out at the bustle of New York way down below, until the sun set over the Hudson and the gold of the sky mingled with the million lights of the city. All these moments...

Thanks for guiding us through the tour with U2. I've had the privilege of taking in the show twice: Chicago and Toronto, and will be charmed once again this weekend in Norman, OK. I truly enjoy the behind the scene glimpses you've provided the fans. THANK YOU!

Gavin's Lights
I was at Gavin's show Willie and the lighting was superb. It seemed like you HAD MORE lights than were there at the house as you made great use with the color scheme that you chose. All the timing of the lighting, darkening when you did and brightening up at certain times, but mostly using color filters......it was great. I used my camera without flash so as not to get busted by Staffers (though others were more brazen!) and so the lighting kinda made it hard for me to get good shots! I haven't uploaded them yet but we'll see how they look when I get them on computer. With all that you have on your plate, I'd say "Well done dude" but then, you're a pro, and you know how to run a show!! I was at BOTH Giant's stadium shows, wish I were going again, and enjoyed being at Gavin's show too. An altogether different experience, great entertainers (especially the lads) and all for (RED) which I've been a supporter of since Gap sold the first t-shirt a few years ago!! I even ran and repurchased one when another was cut off me after a bad auto accident landed me in the ER and all clothes, I was wearing my (RED) shirt, was cut off. First order of business once I was well was to replace it!!! Love (RED) Again, great job WILLIE!! PS: I have trouble getting to bed after a busy day too, per your previous diary entry. It's normal. Except I don't work for U2 - fantasy dream job!!!! I'm an Irish citizen though......and a Native NYer so loved your comments on our NY sunsets.......they get prettier in Fall & Winter! Nice to take them in with the juxtaposition of all the hustle & bustle of our great big city! Thanks for your part of our great shows on 9/23 & 9/24!

New York moments
I readily identify with the last paragraph of this entry, and I'm sure that countless other New Yorkers can as well. Working on the 47th floor of a midtown building, I often go days without even pausing in my work to look out the window. However, on certain evenings, I'll sneak into the conference room next to my office to witness the purplish-orange glow of the sun setting behind the Empire State building, illuminating all of southern Manhattan. A true New York moment, indeed.

TrackMania Nations Forever
TrackMania Nations Forever Overview
TrackMania Nations Forever is the free to play version of the popular TrackMania racing series by Nadeo. Unlike other online racers, TrackMania has no power-ups or items. There are no car parts to purchase and no upgrades available. Everyone comes equipped with the same car which means both old and new players are on equal footing. Though TrackMania is a multiplayer game, there is little player interaction. Racers can see each other on the screen but their cars do not interact with one another. This means players can drive through each other as if they were ghosts.
There are 5 game modes in TrackMania:
Time Attack - This is by far the most common mode. Players race to see who can complete the map in the shortest amount of time. If you finish before time is up, you can start over and try to improve your time.
Team - Players are divided into two teams. The team with the highest average placement wins.
Laps - The first player to finish the set amount of laps is the victor. Other players 'retire' and the game moves on to a new map.
Cup - Like in other racing games, this is the longest game mode. Players race on various stages and earn points depending how they place on each map. The player with the most points at the end wins.
Rounds - Similar to Cup but much shorter in duration. Players earn points depending on how they place each race. The player with the highest point total wins.

TrackMania Nations Forever Seal Online Review
By Erhan Altay
TrackMania is a well known racing game series originally launched in France back in 2003. While most versions are released under the standard retail model, the developers tried something different with the 2007 release of TrackMania Nations Forever. Nations Forever follows a freeware model with the intention of enticing players to purchase the retail version, titled TrackMania United Forever. For the average user, Nations Forever has everything required for a deeply enjoyable racing experience so if you're looking for a racing game that emphasis racing over luck or items than read on.
Where to Begin
Since the game is entirely free, it has wound up on several places including Acclaim's MMO gaming portal and on Valve's popular Steam service. I've linked to both locations in the 'Links's section of this page but I personally prefer the original source; the game's official site. Account creation is handled in-game so there's no website registration involved if you take my recommended approach. There's one final point that needs to be cleared up before getting started and that is understanding just how TrackMania works. Players do not connect to a central server, instead all interactions are handled via a peer-to-peer system that shows you the movements of other player but doesn't allow you to really interact with one another. What this means is players can't collide with other cars and only see them as 'ghosts' for the sake of time comparison. This system has its obvious flaws but does have a few advantages — it allows hundreds of players to race 'together' in a single room.
Let's Drive
Before you start racing, you must select which nation's car you want to drive. Each nation has a different paint job with their flag and colors prominent. Being a Turkish citizen, I chose the red crescent and star adorned vehicle and was ready to go. For those with a bit more creativity than me, there are customization options that allow players to paint their vehicles and decorate them with stickers and other markings. Players can even import images and plaster them over their cars if they like. Once your car is ready, I recommend jumping right into online play. There is an interesting single player component to TrackMania but racing other players is the game's real purpose so be sure to try that out first. Navigating through all of the available servers across the globe is a huge hassle so be sure to use the 'recommend servers' button to get a short list of servers with players around your ladder rank.
Crazy Racing
The game's controls are very simple; the arrow keys control movement, 1,2,3 switch camera modes, enter takes you back to the previous checkout and backspace resets the race. The spacebar can be used to chat to other players but there's really never a reason to do so besides to flame someone. Tracks have a sleek look and there are literally 1000s of them available since players can create their own. Some tracks are simple and have a couple turns and ramps but others can get rather complex. Giant loops, jumps and sharp turns without railing mean you'll find yourself falling off the stage multiple times and resetting the race. One thing that players must always keep in mind when playing TrackMania is that they are not necessarily racing the other players — they're racing to see who can get the fastest lap time. What this means is you shouldn't be afraid to hit the enter or backspace key to reset the race. Just get the best time possible within the allotted time limit.
Realistic or Insane?
I'm tempted to label the play style in TrackMania as realistic since there are no missiles or items like there are in UpShift StrikeRacer or in cartoony racers like Tales Runner and Kart n Crazy. But It's hard to call a game realistic when players are driving at insane speeds in loops through the air and making crazy 100 meter. On the realistic spectrum, I'd place Trackmania below Project Torque but ahead of other free racing games currently available. What makes this game unique though is that it is a traditional racing game; you don't earn currency while playing and there are no experience points or custom car parts to deal with. All players start with everything they need to be the best possible racer. The only thing that can be improved upon is your skill. Playing the same stages over and over again and trying to shave off a few seconds from your previous time may sound boring but TrackMania found a way to keep it interesting.
You Against the World
Anytime player are in the lobby they will be reminded of how they rank when compared to all players across the globe, players in their country, and players in their region. There are several ways to improve this ranking, the simplest being playing the single player component of the game. There are a total of 65 missions divided into 5 difficulties. Each one must be completed in a certain amount of time to earn a Bronze, Silver, and Gold medal. Earning the gold is the most difficult while the Bronze medal is far easier to acquire. I found myself having the repeat some of the later missions multiple times just to earn Silver but seeing my global ranking increase my thousands of positions each time made it worthwhile. Other single player content includes the game's full featured track creator. Players can construct in deoth courses with multiple levels, ramps, boosters, loops, jump and more. You can always tell which tracks were fan made when you play online since they're usually much more difficult, with sharp turns and loops that require perfect timing. After spending many hours on TrackMania Nations Forever I never once felt as if I was playing an incomplete game. Players who enjoy the game may consider looking up the benefits of purchasing the upgraded version titled TrackMania United Forever but it is certainly not necessary to enjoy this fast paced racer.
Final Verdict: Good
TrackMania Nations Forever does what's intended to do. It is a wonderful racing experience without any of the fluff found in other racing games. TrackMania can be played casually or even alone since it is more concerned with lap times than beating other players but this lack of player interaction hinders it from earning a better score.

Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
Old English worðscip, wurðscip (Anglian), weorðscipe (West Saxon) "condition of being worthy, honor, renown," from weorð "worthy" (see worth) + -scipe (see -ship). Sense of "reverence paid to a supernatural or divine being" is first recorded c.1300. The original sense is preserved in the title worshipful (c.1300).
c.1200, from worship (n.). Related: Worshipped; worshipping.
homage rendered to God which it is sinful (idolatry) to render to any created being (Ex. 34:14; Isa. 2:8). Such worship was refused by Peter (Acts 10:25,26) and by an angel (Rev. 22:8,9).
broadly defined, the response to the appearance of that which is accepted as the holy-that is, to a sacred, transcendent power or being. Characteristic modes of response to the holy include cultic acts of all kinds: ritual drama, prayers of many sorts, dancing, ecstatic speech, veneration of various persons and objects, sermons, silent meditation, and sacred music and song. Also included in worship are acts of private response: spoken or unspoken prayers, silence, the assumption of particular postures, ritual acts and gestures, and individual acts of veneration of persons or objects.

(WILMINGTON, NC) -- Pandora Bazaar has just wrapped production on "Anita Rose: Breaking the Silence of Southern Harmony". The movie stars Julie Robbins, Victoria Givens & Brooke Ballentine among other rare east coast performers and was directed by Anders Manga (Girl Show 2).
"I'm really happy with how the movie turned out, I just finished editing and writing all the songs for it" says Anders. "Unlike Girl Show 2, this is a work of true trash art. It's like John Waters meets Andy Warhol on ecstasy, if I may be so bold. None of the cast had ever done a scripted feature but you would never know from their performances. Some will love it and some will hate it but it's absolutely something different."
"Anita Rose" is scheduled for release in late November on VHS & DVD.

Dell Venue 8 7000
With its powerful 3D camera and strong image editing features the Dell Venue 8 7000 makes the strongest case yet for tablet photography.
Acer Iconia Tab 8
The Acer Iconia Tab 8 has the design edge for budget slates, but you can find a faster performing tablet in the same price range.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 ( white, 7-inch)
The $180 Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 is a fine choice for a budget tablet, but it's ultimately bested by great older devices, and new slates that are cheaper still.
Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact
The Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact's wealth of power, its skinny, waterproof body and decent screen make it a good option to consider if you're after a portable tablet. Although its screen resolution doesn't put it over its competitors, its ability to play games from your PS4 -- although not perfect yet -- gives it a unique selling point.
Google Nexus 9
The Google Nexus 9's premium build, speedy performance and consistent updates render it one of the best high-end Android tablets.
Toshiba Excite Go
Don't be tempted by its low price: the Toshiba Excite Go's middling display is too onerous to use.
Amazon Fire HDX 8.9 ( 2014)
Impressive Amazon features and an outstanding display make the the Fire HDX 8.9 one of the best and most affordable media consumption tablets.
Amazon Fire HD 7
For an inexpensive tablet, the Fire HD 7 satisfies with a practical, family-friendly operating system, but those interested in a 7-inch tablet can find models with better build quality in the same price range.
Apple iPad Air 2
The iPad Air 2 is a nice refinement and finesse of last year's model, with a bevy of tweaks, enhancements, a much faster processor, and the welcome addition of Touch ID. Simply put: it's still the gold standard for tablets.
Apple iPad Mini 3
One of last year's best, the iPad Mini 3 is still a compelling choice despite the lack of upgrades. However, the nearly identical and significantly cheaper iPad Mini 2 is a smarter buy.

Q:There is a file cabinet we would like to use but do not have the keys. The key core appears to have FY13 on it. But I cannot find the appropriate key on your website. The model number listed inside the drawer is RLFL8425F. Can I still get a key that will work with this unit?Asked on 1/22/2015 by Michelle from Lexington KY
1 answer
A:Hello Michelle,
This appears to be what we call a Universal Lateral File, so yes it is one of our products. Unfortunately each of these products can have a different key number.
Can you take a closer look to the lock face ring? There should be a "FR" and a 3 digit number. This is the key number and with this you can order a replacement key (click on the link below).
Now, if you are unable to determine the key number, you can replace the lock cylinder, for this you can contact one of our authorized dealer and they will assist you.

However, as an additional "teaser" for you I can assure you that Ersilia Saisi was indeed married to a "Giusseppe" Saisi, whom lived in SF - only there was a twist! (to follow) Actually, the marriage record identifies her spouse as VINCENZO Saisi abovr
Ilso, the Rafaelle Saisi angle is really throwing me off. Could this be from "another" Giuseppe Saisi?
definitely could be another Giuseppe. There were Many SAISI in the town...
I really appreciate your (combined) efforts here. Just amazing stuff...

mjclayton1 wrote:Thanks for that, Tessa78...
To now summarize re: Ersilia, she originally was married to Vincenzo Saisi (his first name was what was eluding us). She had two boys with Vincenzo:
Ferdinando (Carol's Grandfather) - DOB 7-14-1897
Pietro Saisi- (Carol's' Grand Uncle) - DOB June 3, 1899 (we believe)
At that point, Vincenzo must've somehow passed, but we don't know how or on what date. The "twist" noted in my comments above is that Ersilia subsequently married Vincenzo's younger brother, Giuseppe! This made Giusseppe not only Ferdinando's uncle, but, seemingly, also his "step-father"
Ersilia had two boys with Gisueppe, both born in America (and both being half-brothers... and also somehow cousins???... to Ferdinando and Pietro):
Mario Joseph Saisi - B: April 28, 1913; D: Dec. 18, 1973
Rudolf Lino Saisi - B: Sept. 29, 1914; D: July 5, 2009
Is there any way to verify both the death of Vincenzo (in Italy) and also the birth of Pietro (also in Italy)?
Thank you again for your wonderful input. It's truly appreciated.
[P.S. - As to your last comment, it's probably not a stretch to think that Carol may somehow be related, if only distantly, to the recently elected "sindaco" (Mayor) of Gallicano, David Saisi...]

Quick Takes On The Rolling Stones
Monday, April 1, 2013
The wait for Rolling Stones fans is almost over. On Friday (March 29th), the band posted a message on their official website (TheRollingStones.com) featuring a single line stating, "5 DAYS & COUNTING. . ." Underneath was a newly produced video of "Doom And Gloom" featuring footage of the Stones performing the song during their December shows over the officially released studio recording. So far, all that fans know about the announcement is that it is expected to contain the dates for at least 18 North American shows.
The Stones have so far announced that they'll headline England's Glastonbury festival on June 29th. Original bassist Bill Wyman will also be playing Glastonbury that day with his solo band, the Rhythm Kings. There's been no announcement whether he'll join the Stones during their performance as he had during the band's London dates last year.

This is part of IEEE Spectrum's SPECIAL REPORT: THE SINGULARITY
Would you sell your soul on eBay? Right now, of course, you can't. But in some quarters it is taken for granted that within a generation, human beings—including you, if you can hang on for another 30 years or so--will have an alternative to death: being a ghost in a machine. You'll be able to upload your mind--your thoughts, memories, and personality--to a computer. And once you've reduced your consciousness to patterns of electrons, others will be able to copy it, edit it, sell it, or pirate it. It might be bundled with other electronic minds. And, of course, it could be deleted.
That's quite a scenario, considering that at the moment, nobody really knows exactly what consciousness is. Pressed for a pithy definition, we might call it the ineffable and enigmatic inner life of the mind. But that hardly captures the whirl of thought and sensation that blossoms when you see a loved one after a long absence, hear an exquisite violin solo, or relish an incredible meal. Some of the most brilliant minds in human history have pondered consciousness, and after a few thousand years we still can't say for sure if it is an intangible phenomenon or maybe even a kind of substance different from matter. We know it arises in the brain, but we don't know how or where in the brain. We don't even know if it requires specialized brain cells (or neurons) or some sort of special circuit arrangement of them.
Nevertheless, some in the singularity crowd are confident that we are within a few decades of building a computer, a simulacrum, that can experience the color red, savor the smell of a rose, feel pain and pleasure, and fall in love. It might be a robot with a "body." Or it might just be software--a huge, ever-changing cloud of bits that inhabit an immensely complicated and elaborately constructed virtual domain.
We are among the few neuroscientists who have devoted a substantial part of their careers to studying consciousness. Our work has given us a unique perspective on what is arguably the most momentous issue in all of technology: whether consciousness will ever be artificially created.
We think it will--eventually. But perhaps not in the way that the most popular scenarios have envisioned it.
Consciousness is part of the natural world. It depends, we believe, only on mathematics and logic and on the imperfectly known laws of physics, chemistry, and biology; it does not arise from some magical or otherworldly quality. That's good news, because it means there's no reason why consciousness can't be reproduced in a machine--in theory, anyway.
In humans and animals, we know that the specific content of any conscious experience--the deep blue of an alpine sky, say, or the fragrance of jasmine redolent in the night air--is furnished by parts of the cerebral cortex, the outer layer of gray matter associated with thought, action, and other higher brain functions. If a sector of the cortex is destroyed by stroke or some other calamity, the person will no longer be conscious of whatever aspect of the world that part of the brain represents. For instance, a person whose visual cortex is partially damaged may be unable to recognize faces, even though he can still see eyes, mouths, ears, and other discrete facial features. Consciousness can be lost entirely if injuries permanently damage most of the cerebral cortex, as seen in patients like Terri Schiavo, who suffered from persistent vegetative state. Lesions of the cortical white matter, containing the fibers through which parts of the brain communicate, also cause unconsciousness. And small lesions deep within the brain along the midline of the thalamus and the midbrain can inactivate the cerebral cortex and indirectly lead to a coma--and a lack of consciousness.
To be conscious also requires the cortex and thalamus--the corticothalamic system--to be constantly suffused in a bath of substances known as neuromodulators, which aid or inhibit the transmission of nerve impulses. Finally, whatever the mechanisms necessary for consciousness, we know they must exist in both cortical hemispheres independently.
Much of what goes on in the brain has nothing to do with being conscious, however. Widespread damage to the cerebellum, the small structure at the base of the brain, has no effect on consciousness, despite the fact that more neurons reside there than in any other part of the brain. Neural activity obviously plays some essential role in consciousness but in itself is not enough to sustain a conscious state. We know that at the beginning of a deep sleep, consciousness fades, even though the neurons in the corticothalamic system continue to fire at a level of activity similar to that of quiet wakefulness.
Data from clinical studies and from basic research laboratories, made possible by the use of sophisticated instruments that detect and record neuronal activity, have given us a complex if still rudimentary understanding of the myriad processes that give rise to consciousness. We are still a very long way from being able to use this knowledge to build a conscious machine. Yet we can already take the first step in that long journey: we can list some aspects of consciousness that are not strictly necessary for building such an artifact.
Remarkably, consciousness does not seem to require many of the things we associate most deeply with being human: emotions, memory, self-reflection, language, sensing the world, and acting in it. Let's start with sensory input and motor output: being conscious requires neither . We humans are generally aware of what goes on around us and occasionally of what goes on within our own bodies. It's only natural to infer that consciousness is linked to our interaction with the world and with ourselves.
Yet when we dream, for instance, we are virtually disconnected from the environment--we acknowledge almost nothing of what happens around us, and our muscles are largely paralyzed. Nevertheless, we are conscious, sometimes vividly and grippingly so. This mental activity is reflected in electrical recordings of the dreaming brain showing that the corticothalamic system, intimately involved with sensory perception, continues to function more or less as it does in wakefulness.
Neurological evidence points to the same conclusion. People who have lost their eyesight can both imagine and dream in images, provided they had sight earlier in their lives. Patients with locked-in syndrome, which renders them almost completely paralyzed, are just as conscious as healthy subjects. Following a debilitating stroke, the French editor Jean-Dominique Bauby dictated his memoir, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly , by blinking his left eye. Stephen Hawking is a world-renowned physicist, best-selling author, and occasional guest star on "The Simpsons," despite being immobilized from a degenerative neurological disorder.
So although being conscious depends on brain activity, it does not require any interaction with the environment. Whether the development of consciousness requires such interactions in early childhood, though, is a different matter.
How about emotions? Does a conscious being need to feel and display them? No: being conscious does not require emotion . People who've suffered damage to the frontal area of the brain, for instance, may exhibit a flat, emotionless affect; they are as dispassionate about their own predicament as they are about the problems of people around them. But even though their behavior is impaired and their judgment may be unsound, they still experience the sights and sounds of the world much the way normal people do.
