Kim Ode's favorite Communist [updated with Ode's response]
Yesterday's Star Tribune featured Kim Ode's profile of former Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Erwin Marquit. Marquit is dying and Ode is fawning. The source of Ode's attraction to Marquit is Marquit's run for governor in 1974 as a Communist. The romance of Communism hasn't worn off for Ode or her editors at the Star Tribune. Ode's profile is "Erwin Marquit, state's best-known Communist, reflects on his life." I'm sure Ode is »

Fournier's lie
When I heard former AP Washington bureau chief Ron Fournier state in passing on a recent Fox News Special Report panel that "Bush lied us into war in Iraq," I just groaned. Fournier has moved on from the AP to become senior political correspondent and editorial director of National Journal. Fournier presents himself as the moderate voice of reason and common sense, and he is a distinguished journalist, but the »
The non-mystery of Scott Walker's college career
In a reliable sign that Scott Walker is now a first-tier presidential prospect, the media wants to know what he thinks about evolution. Walker's answer — "that's a question a politician shouldn't be involved in one way or the other" — is a sign that he can live up to first-tier status. Here's another reliable sign that Walker is in the first-tier: the Washington Post is probing the "mystery" of »
Who Will Replace Jon Stewart?
Jon Stewart is retiring from Comedy Central, possibly to run for office as a Democrat. Stewart is a liberal who devoted pretty much his entire show to bashing conservatives, although he occasionally trained his fire on Democrats, thereby obtaining an undeserved reputation for objectivity. So who will replace him? Comedy Central could make a truly bold move and replace Stewart with a Republican, but of course they won't. The monopoly »
The senseless suspension of Brian Williams [With Comments by John]
NBC News has suspended Brian Williams for six months as punishment for lying about being shot at in Iraq and, quite likely, telling other tall or embellished tales. NBC News stated that Williams "misrepresented" events in a broadcast last Friday about his coverage of the Iraq War in 2003, and that "it then became clear that on other occasions Brian had done the same while telling that story in other »
If it bleeds it leads. . .to denial by Obama
John did a great job of ripping President Obama's pathetic musings on terrorism, as served up to Matthew Yglesias of Vox.com. I want to focus on Obama's claim that the media "absolutely" sometimes overstates the level of alarm people should have about terrorism. Obama offered no evidence to support this claim. He merely asserted it, adding that he doesn't blame the media for following the "the famous saying. . .if »
More tears for Piers
Piers Morgan is no longer on American television, thank God. But he's still serving up embarrassing soccer commentary. Before Saturday's North London Derby between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, Morgan tweeted that Spurs emerging star Harry Kane "wouldn't get on [Arsenal's] bench." Kane proceeded to score the two goals that gave Tottenham a famous 2-1 victory over their bitter rivals. Kane is the hottest forward in the Premier League. Arguably, he's »
What Has Dan Rather Got Against Brian Williams?
Dan Rather has come to the defense of Brian Williams, calling Williams "an honest man." Dan ought to know! Is he trying to destroy Williams?* (Maybe he thinks he can get the anchor chair himself.) Good thing I wasn't drinking coffee when I spotted this Breitbart item: Disgraced former TV news anchor Dan Rather has come to the aid of embattled NBC anchor Brian Williams, saying that Williams is an »
Lying isn't what it used to be
Lying used to be an offense that caused people to stop trusting and believing you. Now, it's a "mistake" that's to be weighed against the liar's virtues before deciding if he is to be trusted. I noticed this in my law practice. When I first started out, you hit the litigation jackpot if you could show that the opposing party had lied about any semi-material fact. If you showed this »
The New York Times Commits One of Its Funniest Blunders Ever
Via Don Surber and Logan Dobson, another knee-slapper from the editorial board of the New York Times. The paper published an editorial attacking Scott Walker yesterday. Nothing noteworthy about that, except that the Times kept calling him "Mr. Scott." Here is a screen grab; Dobson tweeted, "NYTimes Edit Board ruthlessly attacks some guy named 'Mr. Scott' who they claim is the governor of Wisconsin": The paper eventually realized its mistake »
Brian's big fog
On FNC's Kelly File last night Megyn Kelly interviewed Stars and Stripes reporter Travis Tritten about NBC News anchor Brian Williams's tall tales (video below). The interview proceeds methodically to trace Williams's adornments and refinements to a tall tale he has been telling for more than ten years, capped off by a mendacious apology attributing his fabrications to the "fog of memory." Kelly pierces the fog in this lucid interview. »
Has NBC Started a Countdown Clock for Firing Brian Williams?
The New York Post's Page Six reports that Tom Brokaw wants Brian Williams fired from NBC News for his lies about his helicopter bravura: You know you're in trouble when Tom Brokaw is out for your blood. NBC's most revered journalist is furious that Brian Williams is still in the anchor chair after he sheepishly admitted he hadn't traveled on a helicopter hit by enemy fire. "Brokaw wants Williams' head on a platter," an »
Rather symmetrical
Dan Rather is either a little lacking in self-awareness or he wants to pound the final nail into Brian Williams's coffin. Yesterday Rather spoke up for Brian Williams as Williams seeks to withstand the critique of his Big (Oft-Repeated) Lie. Politico's Dylan Byers reached out to Rather for comment and obtained this gem: "I don't know the particulars about that day in Iraq," Rather told POLITICO. "I do know Brian. »
Lies are lies whether they "offend" or not
NBC's Chuck Todd assures us that NBC's Brian Williams is "mortified" by the recent revelation that, for 12 years, he falsely claimed to have been in an aircraft that was shot down during the Iraq War. Todd also says that what's "stinging [Williams] the most" is that the last group of people he wants to offend are veterans. Todd confesses, however, that he hasn't talked to Williams yet. This raises »
Rather insane
I have (at least) one more (forgive me!) note on Rathergate as I prepare for my talk next Thursday at Lyon College on "Rathergate Ten Years After."

TravelPod Member ReviewsWorldMark The Canadian Vancouver
The Canadian is our go to place for Staycations. It's a quick 1/2 hour from home. The location is so great for strolling downtown, shopping, eating, relaxing, water, parks, city bustle.... i could go on.
The rooms are standard WM quality, with all the necessary equipment to eat in and enjoy the view. They are "city" units, quite compact, but then the point is being out enjoying the greatest city in the world, not sitting in the unit! The south facing units can get quite warm in the summer but with both fans going and keeping the windows open overnight to help with the cool down it was bearable

I couldn't help it! It was just so relaxing and the sun was on us, I only fell asleep for a little bit and those couches were incredible.

Some of the architecture has to be more recent than my last visit: is there a term for the new breed of curvy complex-form glass buildings that abound these days? I guess computer-aided design has enabled such shapes, where each floor is different, to no longer be prohibitively expensive. So the new hotel going up down the street has ...

As they hear the story read aloud, they'll also enjoy animations and sound effects such as cows mooing and horses neighing.
It's also a fun way to prepare them for Kindergarten! As they listen to the story and play with the objects on the screen, the app quizzes them about colors, shapes, counting, and matching.

brerJune 5, 2012
I'm making a path between the fence and the garden area. I have dug all the grass out, but there were a gazillion roots from some vine or tree (though there is no tree above the area). The vines sprout little trees everywhere, in the lawn, in the garden, etc.
I want to have a pea pebble walkway, so I don't want those roots to grow up through the pebbles. I had thought of putting black plastic underneath and then laying the pebbles over it, but..
I was reading re/ pea gravel and saw that they recommend putting it on a sand base. My dirt is already VERY sandy, and I think I could just use that, but....then I'd have weeds and trees growing through.
Do you think the plastic is a bad idea?

if HbeAg is non reactive of Patient. and Hbs_Ag is positive.what it means.what type of treatment you recommended. If SGPT is normal. thanks

Maybe no treatment...The key thing is to check your virus in your blood. If there is no virus then no treatment is necessary.
If there is virus, then you will need further evaluation with liver function testing to see if your liver is irritated. Right now all looks well..

I am down to the wire on having to choose two bathtubs by the end of tomorrow.
I have narrowed it down to kohler
one 60X 32 ( possibly Bancroft or expanse)
and one 60X32 (expanse) or 60X34.
I have spent hours researching the measurements and so forth online but I am not able to visit a showroom so have to order them unseen! hard to do!!
so please advise.
The first will b in the master bath which will actually be my own private bathroom.
The other will be in the other bath which will be used by my husband and son.
So, I am 5 ft 3, my husband is 6 ft 2 and we have a young son. Because I want my wn bathroom husband and son will share the one bath, so that is meeting two different needs in one tub.
For my own one, I take baths a lot. And I like to soak somewhat deep. I have seen some deep tubs that just look uncomfortablely deep. For me, a 5 ft 2 woman- would a 15 inch water depth be too much? How much depth do I really need?
The expanse looks okay because it is wide- but the depth of the water is only 12 and 5/8.
Husbands and sons bathroom has a little bigger width option ( can go up to 34). I am thinking of the expanse for them an the Bancroft for me but am totally unsure.
The Bancroft may be too deep for me. And the expanse may b too shallow fot my husband. The Bancroft would be too deep for the child for sure.
tub for my regular long comfortable baths ( that will also have a shawoer in it) and I am trying to find a comfy bath for my tall husband ( bathroom cant fit longer than a 5 ft tub). Maybe he needs deeper than I do?
I am wondering if the Bancroft feels "too" deep- and with the 20 inch walls.
Please advise about which tubs might be good for us! I have to order them by tomorrow!!!
So anyway- I am trying to find a good 60X32 acrylic
they will be showers too. What is an integral tile flange??
I was just wondering if the Bancroft 20 inch height is too tall.
I am also looking at the portrait.
What is a good height to go for that is not too tall but provides a good deep bath?
I see 15 inch 14 inch and 12 .5 inch soaking tubs. Please advise!!!
I like deep soaking baths. I am 4'10". I have bathed in the Kohler Bancroft at my brother's house where it is installed in the second bathroom. I find it exceedingly nice and deep. It is 20" high with a water depth of 15" which is the same for most garden tubs. If you have bathed in a Jacuzzi brand oval tub or maybe a cultured marble garden tub, then the height of the basin sides will be similar to the Bancroft. I don't know if you are using it for a shower, but it has a large basin for a 60x32 tub which gives you a lot of standing room. Excellent choice.
The Kohler Expanse is an excellent choice for your second bathroom since it will be predominantly used for bathing children and taking showers. It is not too deep for kids and it is deeper than the cast iron Villager. The width will be great for your husband and your son when taking showers especially if you install a curved shower rod to match the tub. The basin of the Expanse is similar to the size of a 5 foot garden tub - it is quite large.
Be careful what products you use to clean your tubs. I really dulled my builder garden tub by using Scrubbing Bubbles on it. Be careful bathing dogs - use towels or mats to protect the tub from toenails - even hang a towel over the edge for when they try to crawl out of the tub. Rinse off outside if you are sandy or have a lot of loose dirt on yourself - the sand and dirt will scratch the tub. And protect the tubs with blankets or their cardboard boxes during tile work and construction.
I know it was a hard decision for you since you are a bath person. Shower people could care less. Great choices.
Here is a link that might be useful: Kohler Acrylic Tub Care
Kohler's Archer tub is only 19 inches high (so easier to step over) but because of the drain design, the water depth is 15 inches. It is a very comfortable tub to sit in and even thought the arm rests it has look small, they are actually very nice. It has lots of very good reviews on various websites.
Fifteen inches is not too deep. Remember you don't have to fill it all the way up.
Despite some good reviews, I didn't find the Bancroft comfortable. The Archer is rather narrow for its outside width. The Expanse looks comfortably wide, if not especially deep (but adequate).
Don't worry if the tub you like isn't available with an integral tile flange; as long as the manufacturer says the tub can be used with an accessory tile flange attachment you're good to go, and you'll have alot more choices, especially in the larger sizes or for jetted/air tubs.

Teaching Plato in Palestine
Teaching Plato in Palestine is part intellectual travelogue, part plea for integrating philosophy into our personal and public life. Philosophical toolkit in tow, Carlos Fraenkel invites readers on a tour around the world as he meets students at Palestinian and Indonesian universities, lapsed Hasidic Jews in New York, teenagers from poor neighborhoods in Brazil, and the descendants of Iroquois warriors in Canada. They turn to Plato and Aristotle, al-Ghazālī and Maimonides, Spinoza and Nietzsche for help to tackle big questions: Does God exist? Is piety worth it? Can violence be justified? What is social justice and how can we get there? Who should rule? And how shall we deal with the legacy of colonialism?
Fraenkel shows how useful the tools of philosophy can be—particularly in places fraught with conflict—to clarify such questions and explore answers to them. In the course of the discussions, different viewpoints often clash. That's a good thing, Fraenkel argues, as long as we turn our disagreements on moral, religious, and philosophical issues into what he calls a "culture of debate." Conceived as a joint search for the truth, a culture of debate gives us a chance to examine the beliefs and values we were brought up with and often take for granted. It won't lead to easy answers, Fraenkel admits, but debate, if philosophically nuanced, is more attractive than either forcing our views on others or becoming mired in multicultural complacency—and behaving as if differences didn't matter at all.
"Fresh, iconoclastic, stimulating debates." Kirkus
"Carlos Fraenkel thinks that philosophy is essential to a culture of debate that gets us out of our cultural, religious, and intellectual cloisters. We understand ourselves by arguing with others, and understand others by arguing with ourselves. Fraenkel takes these convictions out of the classroom and tests them around the world—from Makassar to East Jerusalem, from Bahia to Brooklyn. The result is a wonderful, engaging, and readable book about the power of philosophy." Joshua Cohen, coeditor of The Norton Introduction to Philosophy
"In Teaching Plato in Palestine, a book that is as subversive and gripping as Reading Lolita in Tehran, we learn what happens when you teach philosophy in the most unexpected places. Fraenkel is a philosopher of immense erudition who has great faith in the healing power of philosophy, yet he is by no means a faith healer. He questions and argues, and he makes a powerful case for the Socratic ideal of leading an examined life." Avishai Margalit, author of The Decent Society
"In this inspiring book, Carlos Fraenkel shows that philosophy can be much more than an academic pursuit and that philosophers can play an important role in public life--not by telling people what to think and do, but by offering intellectual tools to help us think through the big questions we're already grappling with in our conflicted world. Fraenkel's lively narratives are a pleasure to read and take us right into the debates he engaged in from Palestine to Brazil. A wonderful argument for the value of philosophy." Sari Nusseibeh, Al-Quds University, Palestine
Philosophical Religions from Plato to Spinoza: Reason, Religion, and Autonomy
Many pagan, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim philosophers from Antiquity to the Enlightenment made no meaningful distinction between philosophy and religion. Instead they advocated a philosophical religion, arguing that God is Reason and that the historical forms of a religious tradition serve as philosophy's handmaid to promote the life of reason among non-philosophers. Carlos Fraenkel provides the first account of this concept and traces its history back to Plato. He shows how Jews and Christians appropriated it in Antiquity, follows it through the Middle Ages in both Islamic and Jewish forms, and argues that it underlies Spinoza's interpretation of Christianity. The main challenge to a philosophical religion comes from the modern view that all human beings are equally able to order their lives rationally and hence need no guidance from religion. Fraenkel's wide-ranging book will appeal to anyone interested in how philosophy has interacted with Jewish, Christian, and Muslim religious traditions.
"A remarkable and important book … It is one of the great merits of Fraenkel's extraordinary book that he helps us to see beyond the Straussian caricature of medieval philosophy … The book ranges not only across a broad span of history from the Greeks to the eighteenth century, but also across religious traditions that today's more passionate apologists would prefer to hold apart … The most surprising argument of the book … is his revolutionary conclusion that the tradition of philosophical religion has survived into modernity." Peter E. Gordon, The New Republic
"No reasonable person can fail to be impressed by the breadth of learning Fraenkel displays in this study and the care and subtlety with which he approaches his sources. ... I am not aware of any other book that takes on so ambitious a project and executes it so well. ... The book constitutes a major contribution to historical scholarship." Kenneth Seeskin, Journal of the History of Philosophy
"This book is a must-read (and re-read) for anyone interested in the contemporary politics of toleration or the uneasy history of the relations between Faith and Reason. With a remarkable breadth of learning and a keen eye Professor Fraenkel charts the efforts by thinkers from Plato through Hegel to integrate sacred texts and practices into larger philosophical and political world-views. This is both first-rate History of Philosophy and for enthusiasts and sceptics alike an eye-opener about the pre-conditions of secular democracy." Calvin Normore, University of California, Los Angeles

Every room has a great marina view and a small balcony to sit and enjoy it from in pleasant weather (I was there on Thanksgiving and was comfortable sitting out with just a jacket for over an hour). The room was clean, comfortable and spacious and the bathroom was larger than most motel rooms. The bed was comfortable. Ceilings (and possibly walls) could use more soundproofing and I would choose a 2nd floor room next time to avoid this; but I would definitely book this inn again. The included breakfast was quite adequate with the bonus of fresh waffles. Desk personel were pleasant. Excellent value.

Every summer thousands of people come to participate in the Dick Beardsley half marathon and 5 kilometer run/walk. The cross-country team always volunteers to help out, and this year I was actually here to do so. Previously, I have been camping with my family and haven't been able to help out.

Ceiling vent fan ? for GW to ponder why or why not?....
Okay, so I found this vent that can be ceiling mounted up to 9' high.
And it has either in line or external blower of varying options for cfm.
So why couldn't a person pick a different insert liner (read: less expensive) of the same size with the same external cfm blower and do the same, ceiling mount thing?
I did find one thread from a little while back and one person in the industry said they had one set up in a demo kitchen and he or she was surprised at how well it worked, even way up there.
Possibly the lighting might be an issue?
This would be used over the stove which is being placed against a 42" tall wall and then open to the 9" ceiling.
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts about why or why not a different liner unit could or couldn't be used in this manner.
Here is a link that might be useful: cirrus vent
Grease and steam rise in a V shape. They expand and become larger as they go upwards. For that thing to actually work, it would need to be around 5'x10' on a 9' ceiling. Otherwise, with that small capture area, all you are doing is making cleaning your ceiling every week be the chore instead of putting the vent filters in the DW. It's a marketer's idea, NOT an engineer's.
Well, they have a video on their website that shows it working. Lady is frying up a storm and it's all going into the vent.
Here is the comment from the other thread:

They have one of these (a Best - Cirrus) installed at the Purcell-Murray demo kitchen in Brisbane, CA (as of Aug, 2012). It's over a new Thermador Freedom induction cooktop. I was shocked at how well it worked for being so high above the surface. Not too noisy either. Though I think the rep said there was a replacement part it needed that would quiet it down some more.
I think if you get it with an external blower you can size up the duct to 8".
I mean, who'd a thought you could put a dishwasher in a drawer? Maybe it's new design that really does work? I don't know...
Futuro (was it them?) makes one too. Dunno if they work (but you'll always find someone who hasn't tried it to say it can't possibly). Stuff does spread as it rises, but it spreads less if it's being SUCKED towards a certain point in the middle. It would have to be better than nothing. And they are wide.
Purcell-Murray the distributor in Brisbane. Pfft. All the retailers kept telling me to go THERE to see the things I wanted that they didn't stock but they sure didn't have much hooked up.

"Talenquera Beach Resort - 1" Juan Dolio Travelogue by bellagio
Juan Dolio Travel Guide: 12 reviews and 77 photos
The Talenquera Beach Resort is about 1 and half hours drive away from La Romana airport and is on the caribbean south coast of the island close to the small town of Juan Dolio. As you unload from the coach on arrival you see this sign - little did I realise that 3 star in this instance was a gross exaggeration of its status.
This was my first view of the building which housed my room - No. 256 in building 2 - which was to be my home for the next two weeks. I felt disappointment when I checked in at the lobby (which was dark and uninviting), but this resembled a prison block!!!!
This building was three stories high and my room was located on the third floor. As you can see, on this and other photos, there is far too much greenery around making the place rather dismal and dull. My room is the second one in from the left on the top floor.
This is the best view from my balcony looking out over one of the pools.
Once again too much vegetation for my liking.
Another balcony view showing the Internet room which had 8 state-of-the-art flat screen monitors with high speed internet access at a cost of $2 for half an hour or $3 for an hour.
Here you can see the balconies of the adjoining rooms. I'm sure you will agree they don't look very attractive.
This is the Cocolo restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner (all buffet) meals were served. You had an option to eat once during your stay at the French restaurant and you could also book the Italian (certain meals at these restaurants carried a supplemental charge). Lunch could also be taken in a small restaurant by the beach. Midnight snacks were also available from here after 11pm.

Anybody out there?
This forum is so slow I sometimes wonder if any MGs actually read it. Anybody out there? What's new with you?
A few of our MGs are being trained to be Urban Tree Specialists. It's a new program (new to us) to help homeowners make good choices regarding trees on their property including pruning, cultural requirements, new trees to plant, etc. We will also serve homeowner associations and other groups as the need arises. It's a fascinating study and hopefully will fill the need in our community.
This post caught my eye because I have written a song titled "Anybody Out There?" It's not posted on my web sites yet but you can hear some of my music at http://www.sonicbids.com/eddierhoades. I have been a Master Gardener for 30 years now in Marietta, Georgia which is near Atlanta. My special interests are Yard Art, Soil Amending and my favorite: Edible Landscaping. I have planted and hope they bear this year: fuzzless kiwi, pomegranate, blueberries, pineapple guava, pawpaws, plums, mayhaws, figs, seedless American persimmons, large non-astringent Asian persimmon, mulberries, jujubes, English walnut, muscadines and more. I often speak for state Master Gardener Conferences - Mississippi is coming up this month. I am currently working on my second CD of my original songs and they are sounding fantastic. I even have a gardening song out there called "Green Man." So you can see I am staying busy. Am I happy? Sometimes, but at least I am busy. My goal is to get a song on the radio or sung by a popular recording artist. That's for my music. For my garden I hope to pack it with edibles of those I named plus vegetables, annuals, perennials, bulbs, vines and shrubs. I want a lawn so small I can mow it in 15 minutes and I'm almost there. I hope to someday get caught up and work on my gardening book which is on hold at present. I also plan to exercise more but that doesn't seem to happen. I am involved in several projects with the local Master Gardener organization such as the Demo Garden, the Nature Garden, fruit orchard, Teaching gardening classes for 30 seniors every Spring and more. I try to find humor in life. Just yesterday I was driving to a Master Gardener meeting when I passed through a school zone that said "speed limit 25 miles per hour." So I sped up.

Brothels, pirates and beer lure summer visitors

SeaWorld, the Zoo and the Coronado coastline are the obvious choices for visitors heading to San Diego, but for the been-there, done-that crowd, Gaslamp brothels, sword-fighting pirates and brew tastings may be more to their liking.
In a destination rich with mega attractions catering to sightseeing vacationers, enterprising entrepreneurs are hoping to stand out from the crowd by offering offbeat, quirky outings to tempt the jaded visitor and complement the requisite visits to theme parks and beaches.
Foodies with a yen for partying may be turned on by Brothels, Bites and Booze in the Gaslamp Quarter, while beer connoisseurs who'd prefer to not drink and drive may gravitate toward one of several brewery tours that have capitalized on San Diego's growing reputation for quality craft beer.
"We've noticed a great deal of new start ups trying to find a little niche market that hasn't been tapped into before," said Robert Marks, a concierge at the Omni Hotel downtown. "Unfortunately, some do not last. It really has to be something that has an interest and a market, and if you're doing something really offbeat and specialized, that won't necessarily survive in a very tough market.
"People are still trying to get the most out of their entertainment dollar."
Newer tour operators acknowledge that between the startup costs and the recession-induced drop in tourism in recent years, turning a profit has been slow in coming. The operators of Brewery Tours of San Diego weren't able to quit their day jobs until 2-1/2 years after launching their business, while Pirate Ship Adventures, which melds a tour of the bay with swashbuckling hijinks, has yet to realize a turn on its investment but hopes to do so next year.
"I would love for it to evolve into an iconic attraction that will provide entertainment for quite some time," said Arrit McPherson, owner of the pirate tour. "We're currently located at Cabrillo Isle Marina, where we're virtually invisible. I've been working about a year to secure a location on the Embarcadero, but there's very limited access there."
While San Diego's walking tours and water-based outings may seem like bit players compared to local industry heavyweights like SeaWorld and Legoland, they remain an important component of the whole tourist experience, said Joe Terzi, who heads the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau.
One of those tours — a Segway outing through Balboa Park — even made it into one of the bureau's TV advertising spots.
As the economy has slowly rebounded, smaller tour operations have benefitted from increased tourism. San Diego's tourist industry is starting to see more daily and overnight visitors, with more than 31 million people visiting the region last year, compared to 29.8 million in 2010.

Our whole 45 Frames of We Were Once a Fairytale, how else is there a way to explain that nearly 3/4 of the shots are identical?
Peep it and make up your mind.
Our whole 45 Frames of We Were Once a Fairytale, how else is there a way to explain that nearly 3/4 of the shots are identical?
Peep it and make up your mind.
We had a chance to see a screening of (Untitled) a couple moments back, and liked it enough to give you all the heads up about it. Starring Adam Goldberg, a sexy Marley Shelton, Eion Bailey, Lucy Punch, and Vinnie Jones (as a mix of Maurizio Cattelan and Vinnie Jones), the film is based on the NY Art Scene in all of its idiosyncracies. We definitely recommend seeing its debut in theaters this weekend. As a bonus, we have a package containing a full size movie poster and the original soundtrack for the movie to giveaway. Since the movies tagline is "Everyone's got an opinion", watch the trailer after the jump, then give us your opinion in the comments. Best one wins.
In this new feature we explore the English language as it was meant to be spoken. We dig deep through the best reference in the world, the Urban Dictionary. Got a nice word or phrase we should feature? Leave it in the comments.

I'm surprised Tony Gwynn wasn't on here (.338 average, only 434 strike outs in 2440 games).
This pretty crazy shit. I am on the fence if it is intentional or for real.
Gotta love what's going on in this creation. Momo's bike reminds me a bit of Tom Sach's tequila bike for girls, except that it is actually used. Even greater innovation is the re-tooled roller (after the jump). See more of what he has going on here
Editors decided to step it up using Google Street View for their new album In This Light And On This Evening, produced by Mark Flood Ellis (U2, Sigur Ros, Depeche Mode). Basically, you browse the street view and the maps to listen to the tracks. I have to say this is a really great approach to making it interesting and fun. I have had the album for a couple of weeks now and it's in heavy rotation. In This Light And On This Evening takes you back in time, as it leaps forward.
I was so psyched when my friend Ben told me about the Dumpling Eating Contest at this weekend's Dumpling Festival in New York. Surely, I could match up with competitive eaters and win the $1000 first prize. Monday night I popped down to Prosperity Dumpling on Eldridge Street and bought 25 dumplings for $5. My training was to begin. After getting friendly with Jah, I was more than prepared to house some dumplings, the record was 66 but, I thought 25 would be a nice way to ease myself into it. The result? after the jump off.
Top Cock, definitely.

Recommended antifungal for potted cannas?
I am having great success with potted cannas constant blooms.
We had a weather change and about a week of rainy and hazy
days so now I have rust. Is there an antifungal I can put in the soil around my rhizomes to prevent this in the future?
Thanks, AJ
One of problems is I could not determine where the canna is growing. This is often important because certain pathogens are more prevalent in specific zones. The necrotic symptoms appear to me to be more closely aligned with a bacteria leaf disease (specifically-bacteria leaf spot).
These symptoms could be the result of a virus infection but does not appear to be either CaYMV or CaYSV.
Canna rust (fungal) is most prevalent in the Southern areas of the U.S. but can occur further north but most often in late summer and the fall season. Rust always begins on the lower side of the leaf surface with the onset of red postulates. Rust is typically easy to diagnose by observing the underside of the leaf prior to necrosis.
If possible, it would be better if your plant received more hours of sun and prevent overhead watering late in the day. Wet foliage for extended time will augment the onset of both bacterial and fungal disease.
I cannot personally rule out any of the three possibilities.

Interview: 'Sleepy Hollow' star John Noble on Season 2 and what drives War, Henry and Jeremy
WILMINGTON, NC. There was a point a few years back when I seemed to talk with John Noble every few weeks about the universe-bending twists and turns of FOX's "Fringe."
We talked on the drama's Vancouver set. We talked at FOX summer press days on multiple occasions. We talked via satellite. We talked at Comic-Con. Because of the constantly evolving nature of "Fringe" and Walter Bishop and Walternate and various permutations on each character, Noble never repeated himself in our conversations and always impressed with a passion for the subject matter that extended to his hosting duties on Science's "Dark Matters: Twisted But True."
Noble probably wasn't worried about the year or two that he spent not being interviewed by HitFix. He did some Australian TV. He guested on CBS' "The Good Wife" a couple times. And he began work on another FOX drama "Sleepy Hollow," in which he got to play yet another character who turned out to have two or three very different layers.
Introduced as Sin Eater Henry Parrish, we were later told that Henry was actually Jeremy Crane, son of Ichabod and Katrina. And as if that dead-cheating secret wasn't enough, we also discovered that Henry/Jeremy was actually War, the Second of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. It sounds confusing, but in context it all makes sense in that way that nearly everything in "Sleepy Hollow" sounds confusing, but all kinda makes sense in context. And don't worry, it's a challenge for John Noble to understand as well.
Last month, I sat down with my former scene partner in a makeshift press holding area above a "Sleepy Hollow" location in Wilmington, North Carolina. After years of the "Fringe" grind, Noble seemed enthusiastic and energized with his responsibilities on "Sleepy Hollow." Just two days from his 66th birthday, Noble was all smiles, talking his relative surplus of downtime, which gives him the chance for music and painting, among other pursuits.
It's also giving him time for research. Just as "Fringe" let Noble delve into a passion for physics, "Sleepy Hollow" is letting him research magic and witchcraft and he sounds every bit as invested in this character as he was in the role he spent five years playing previously. In this interview, he talks about his approach to the Henry/Jeremy/War trinity and the challenges of playing a character so frequently shrouded in mystery and conflicted motivations.
"Sleepy Hollow" will air its second episode on Monday (September 29) night.

Show me again the time
When in the Junetide's prime
We flew by meads and mountains northerly! -
Yea, to such freshness, fairness, fulness, fineness, freeness,
Love lures life on.
Show me again the day
When from the sandy bay
We looked together upon the pestered sea! -
Yea, to such surging, swaying, sighing, swelling, shrinking,
Love lures life on.
Show me again the hour
When by the pinnacled tower
We eyed each other and feared futurity! -
Yea, to such bodings, broodings, beatings, blanchings, blessings,
Love lures life on.
Show me again just this:
The moment of that kiss
Away from the prancing folk, by the strawberry-tree! -
Yea, to such rashness, ratheness, rareness, ripeness, richness,
Love lures life on.

purchased this item totally on a whim - I have never used any neutrogena products, ever in my life.
I love the light scent and the fact that it doesn't dry my skin out at all. In fact, it makes my skin feel really smooth and clean. I have only just started using this and I am in love with it

I used this when I was younger (late High School to early university years), & found that it didn't do much to help my then-very oily, breakout-prone skin. I did like that it felt refreshing on the skin & it took off facial wash residue post-cleansing. Other than that, this is better-suited for those with normal complexions.

Given, I haven't tried any other toner before, but this one is a winner!
- it does its job and removes all remaining dirt off my face
- makes my face feel super clean
- drys my skin out afterwards (since I have super dry skin) so you do have to be quick about moisturizing afterwards

This toner is just water in a bottle. I didnt do anything to my face at all. But I have to say that I have very sensitive eyes and it didnt irritate them either. Not good, not bad, just plain water.

This is seriously one of the best toners I have come across. I use it only at night just to make sure I get all of my makeup off and let me tell you that it removes any left over makeup without drying out my skin. My skin does not feel tight nor does the toner smell like alchol like most toners do. My face feels soft and clean. I would totally recommend getting this toner cause it'll be one of the best toners you'll ever buy.

I have super dry skin and I was looking for an alcohol free toner. I always believe in Neutrogena products, the makeup, the skincare products. I love the Healthy skin foundation as I have acne prone skin. This toner was recommended to me by a friend. I use this with a cotton ball after I wash off my make up. You can actually see how effective it is. It will get rid of all the make up residue, dirt, etc. The fragrance is so beautiful. It is affordable and moisturizing. I have never used a toner that actually moisturized my skin. It works so much better with Neutrogena oil free moisturizer for sensitive skin. This two are my HG skin care products. I cannot imagine my life without it.
1) Affordable
2) Beautiful fragrance.
3) Gets rid of makeup residue, dirt, etc.
4) Moisturizing.
5) Best choice for people with dry skin as it does not contain alcohol.
6) The packaging is pretty neat.
7) Dries out pimples.
1) Not the best choice for people with oily skin
2) Smell can be irritating.
3) It will dry out pimples but it will not get rid of them.

This just doesn't DO anything... If you have acne-prone skin, you definitely need something stronger. If you have clear, nice skin, use natural Witch Hazel which is better for you than this and doesnt contain alcohol. I just dont see the point of this toner, it feels like water..

I purchased this today along with two other Neutrogena products. I am always nervous trying new products because I have pretty sensitive skin and I am always fearing a breakout or irritation. This caused nothing like that! Overall, I am satisfied so far (I have only used it once) so fingers crossed!

I LOVE this toner! I have sensitive skin and was using Clinique's Toner, but did not like the strong alcohol content. Anyways, back to this toner...I call it my floral water. It reminds me of the expensive Dior Facial Water I used to buy. It takes my makeup off and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I have found my new favorite!

Study of Parameter Relations in Music Instrument Patterns
The aim of this research was to prepare a database for studying musical instrument timbres. Parameters of both frequency and time domains of musical sounds have been extracted. In order to discretize parameter values, a method of attribute quantization is proposed based on the statistical approach. Experiments concerning musical instrument recognition using rough set and neural network approaches were performed. Conclusions concerning applications of artificial intelligence methods to musical instrument recognition were derived.

NOS Raleigh Colt
Damcykel "Frej" by Swedish manufacturer, Kronan. I love the details like the star in the chainwheel, the chainguard, and the ornament on the fender. I also like the little bag on the seat post that looks like it might hold a spare tube and repair kit. This must have been the deluxe ladies model for sure.
