I ask because I will be in Belgrade next month on a Friday for a meeting, but my flight home is from Budapest the next morning (10 am). I have found an overnight bus that is due to arrive in Budapest at 5am - do you think I will be safe getting this bus, or is there a chance of long delays/cancellations etc?
I know that there are airport shuttle buses from Belgrade to Budapest, however I have a friend in Budapest and if I get the regular Orangeways service we were planning to meet for breakfast in the city before she would take me to the airport for my departure.

Man in coma after drinking quart of soy sauce
I'm pretty sure the suggested serving reads, "Use sparingly."
According to NBC News, a 19-year-old man from Virginia went into a coma after consuming a quart of soy sauce on a dare.
[He] is the first person known to have deliberately overdosed on such a high amount of salt and survived with no lasting neurological problems.
When someone consumes an enormous amount of salt, water moves out of tissues and into the blood stream. This can cause the brain to shrink and bleed.
About one month after the event, the man was fine and doing well on college exams.
Maybe he should study reading labels.

Roman Catholic Hierarchy Doubles Down against Marriage Equality
November 13, 2012 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Dan Rafter, Former HRC Associate Director of Communications
Roman Catholic Church leaders are vowing to continue working against marriage equality, despite historic victories at the polls for equality last week. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is choosing to ignore the equality mandate evident in the victories in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington; as well as in the election of Tammy Baldwin to the U.S. Senate and the re-election of President Obama. Instead, the AP reports that the bishops insist they were simply outspent.
San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, a leading voice against LGBT equality and one of the Prop 8 architects, said Church leadership must be more "persuasive" in pushing its discriminatory agenda:
The election is a symptom of a much larger problem. Most people don't understand what marriage is.
Polling indicates that a large majority of Roman Catholics – nearly 60 percent – support marriage equality. And Catholics broke for President Obama over Mitt Romney last week, 50 to 48 percent.

Ignoring perceived opposition from veteran L K Advani and some other senior leaders, BJP today anointed Narendra Modi as its Election Campaign Committee Chairman for the 2014 polls, just short of making him the prime ministerial candidate.
The Indian Express had first reported in February 2013 that Modi will head BJP's 2014 election campaign.
Modi, considered a polarising figure after the post-Godhra riots in 2002, was handed over the responsibility of the party's election campaign at the two-day meeting of the National Executive from which Advani kept away citing ill health as did some other leaders including Jaswant Singh, Uma Bharati and Shatrughan Sinha.
"I want to give you a significant information. ...I have announced (at the National Executive) that Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi as Chairman of the BJP Election Campaign Committee, keeping in mind the challenge of the 2014 Lok Sabha elections and to achieve victory in the polls," party President Rajnath Singh told the media at the conclusion of the deliberations.
The announcement, which was received with a huge round of clappoing and standing ovation in the meeting, was made in a terse statement by Singh who was flanked by Leaders of Opposition in Parliament Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley, former President M Venkaiah Naidu, General Secretary Ananth Kumar among others. No questions were taken at the media interaction.
"Whatever has happened has happened on the basis of consensus," Singh said without elaborating.
The decision to plump for Modi in a crucial role came after two days of deliberations and dilemma in a virtual gamble to galvanise the cadre ignoring the claims of Advani, so far considered tallest party leader after Vajpayee.
Shortly after his anointment, Modi declared at a public meeting that Goa has been lucky for him as in 2002 he had got the "licence" to run Gujarat.

Advice for husband buying embroidery machine
My wife let me know she needed a new sewing machine for her upcoming birthday by having me toss her old broken machine in the dumpster.
I'd like to get her a machine that she can sew and do some basic embroidery on. She's a novice when it comes to sewing and I need to stretch my dollar wisely. She told me she thought if we bought a machine that could do some basic monogramming and designs we could make christmas and birthday presents etc...
I'm hoping to stay around/under $500 and buy something over the web since we live in a remote town (no shopping malls within a 150 miles).
Any advice ladies?
The cheaper machines have a 4"X4" field. Trying to rehoop for larger designs or placement of more letters is not easy to realign. I suggest going to a dealer & maybe getting one that was traded in on an updated &/or better machine. You may get some lessons thrown in on the deal. My brother got one that only has a 4X4 area & his wife has used it very few times. She sees what mine does & gets aggervated by the limitations of hers. Her's is an embroidery only unit too. Do some homework before even spending $500
Remember also that with online buying you don't get any up close and personal classes that you get when you buy from a local dealer.It might be worth th 75 mile trip!! Make a day of it,buy a machine,go out to lunch or dinner,plus the store will show her how to use the machine.JMO
My first post didn't appear. You may want to check out the Singer CE100 or CE200 as they have a bigger stitch field 4 1/2 x 6 3/4 and are combo machines around your price range. Also if you buy on line or even if you go through a dealer, join a yahoo group for your machine as they are always tremdous help. I've heard many times but not always the case that the dealer doesn't know all that much. You're really lucky if you get a great dealer. I know sometimes we live so far out that the ones available are not always the good ones. But having a yahoo group that knows the machine really helps out.
I don't recomend buying on line. My husband bought me the Brother PE 150 on ebay. Don't get me wrong. I like the machine except for the limited 4 x 4 inch design area. I wish it did larger designs. BUT.......no hands on personal lessons. It did come with a dvd and a manual, but I am a person who needs more instruction than that. I learn much better hands on with someone to walk me thru things. I really wish we had spent the extra money and gone to a dealer who would have provided some classes to go with the machine. Also, if you at least visit a dealer before deciding which machine to buy, it will give you a better idea of what is out there and what you will like best for what you can spend. Even if you eventually decide to buy on line.
The problem with buying online is classes. A good friend brought a Designer online and the local Viking dealer will not give her lessons even if she pays for them. So check with the dealer. I have a 1+ with the 4x4 field and love it. I have made tshirts with many logos on it for golf teams and bands. You need to make yourselves happy for you will be the one to use the machine. I have another friend that got the White embroidery machine and she loves it. Like me she only does stuff for herself, friends and family. Also some dealers will let you trade up using all moneys spent off the higher machine. If you go online call and ask a local dealer if there is a way to take classes that way you will be able to use the machine to its fullest potential. Find online site for the machine...Yahoo has many; but most of all make yourselves happy. The Yahoo site has members that answer questions and help each other, just like this one does. Happy shopping.
you will only be happy if you have classes to help you do great work and get the most for your money..The classes are so wonderful and informative.......better than going to a doctor, and less expensive.Chris....and remember"mama ain't happy..........ain't nobody happy"!
Hi, I just recently purchased the Brother SE-270D. I am a beginner to both sewing and embroidery. It does both and has been very easy to learn on. It is very inexpensive - I paid $439 for the machine and PED Basic (software & memory card to manage the designs you download) on ebay after shipping. It has the 4x4 embroidery area, but you can purchase a larger hoop as an accessory. It comes with some designs loaded on it and you can download designs online. Many places have free downloads. She can always upgrade to a better machine if she really gets into the embroidery :)
You are going to have to budget more than $500...and that's just for the machine--machine embroidery is not a cheap hobby. You also have to purchase needles, stabilizers, extra hoops and bobbins, machine embroidery/bobbin thread, a good sturdy work table, a good work light for task lighting, the extra computer programs, some good sewing texts, and storage space to store all this accumulation.
I can totally agree with purchasing from Allbrands once you do your research at all the manufacturer's sites. You do get more bang for your buck with a combination sewing and embroidery machine...you pay more and get more.
If you get a Singer CE100 or 200 (has more decorative stitches), you have to buy the additonal monogram module for around $100. It has only one font for lettering and that's courier. This machine is also computer dependant for the embroidery end of the machine...hook up to the computer and computer controls the machine so you will have to have a dedicted free USB port plus you can use the computer for other things while the machine is running until you get to a color stop, and have to switch back to the embroidery program. The high end XL line runs around $3,000 or more and get a whole lot more including sewing machine feet.
You might want to look into the Brother line. The 270 line is relatively inexpensive..if it has a D after it, it has built in Disney designs and the only machine that can embroider out the Disney designs unless the get the Taste of Disney card that runs around $80 for the non Brother machine. It also does a nice job embroidering.
Janome makes some nice machines as does Sears Kenmore (Janome makes their machines).
The problem with Husqvarna Viking is that everything is properitary and expensive...the one thing that kept me away from the line...no other brand foot will fit their machines...the other brands can use generic low bar feet.

Sliming the greatest generation on PBS?
Adam Buckman at the NYPost blew the whistle last week on a moral equivalence-marinated PBS documentary that airs tonight. Melanie Morgan and I chatted about the smearing of the Greatest Generation with Rush Limbaugh during the "From the Frontlines" web-a-thon on Friday. I've heard from many upset WWII vets. Read Adam's column here.
Members of the Greatest Generation – especially those with weak hearts – might want to steer clear of an upcoming PBS documentary that suggests the Allied victory in World War II was "tainted" and questions whether it can even be called a victory.
Moreover, the documentary, titled "The War of the World: A New History of the 20th Century," asserts that the war could only be won by forming an unholy alliance with a dictator – Joseph Stalin, who was as brutal as the one they were fighting, Adolf Hitler – and by adopting the same "pitiless" and "remorseless" tactics practiced by the enemy.
The three-part documentary is a companion to the best-selling book, "The War of the World: Twentieth Century Conflict and the Descent of the West" by Harvard and Oxford historian Niall Ferguson. The one-hour Part One of the documentary premieres Monday night at 10 on Ch. 13 [in NYC; check your local listings]. The other two parts air the following two Mondays. World War II is the focus of Part Two.
…it is Ferguson's revisionist view of the tactics applied by the Allies in World War II that is likely to raise the hackles of those who have always believed in the "necessity" of bombing German and Japanese civilians, culminating in the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, to end a war we did not start.
"I think it's very hard for those who have imbibed the idea of a 'great generation' that what the Allies did to defeat the Axis was in some measure to adopt totalitarian tactics," Ferguson says in a Q&A on PBS's Web site.

The Old Soundman: Guitar Cab Mics & Urban Myths"X" marks the magic spot... Or does it?
Wedge Management: Combating "More Of Me"…
In The Studio: Recording Acoustic Guitars
RE/P Files: Construction Of A Live Echo Chamber
When the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers broadcasting and production teams decided to move their pre-game show from a studio to the public concourse of the Rose Garden Arena, Mike Janes, the team's vice president of engineering and technology, put together the new gear, including a Shure ULX-D digital wireless system and a PSM 1000 personal monitor system.
Moving from a quiet studio to a public concourse made the broadcast more engaging and exciting for viewers, but presented challenges for hosts Adam Bjaranson and Michael Holton and the technical team. With a crowded RF environment, noisy surroundings, and the need for quick and easy setup and teardown, Janes sought a flexible yet reliable wireless solution, provided by the new ULX-D system.
"Because the set goes up and comes down on a regular basis, we needed a system that was easy to use, easy to collapse, and rugged enough to withstand the repeated abuse," says Janes. "We use the system as a mobile rack system, which enables the gear to be transported and used at other events throughout the off-season. The life we get out of the system over time is huge."
To maximize usability, Janes pairs ULX-D with the SBC200 dual-docking battery charger. "We love the rechargability factor," Janes notes. "It makes it easy to just drop the mic in the same place and know it's ready to perform the next time we pick it up for future games.
"It's also much more cost-effective. Before the charger, we were buying fresh batteries before every broadcast, just to have peace of mind, but at $12 a game, over the course of 42 games, it wasn't cheap. The type of cost savings we obtain from the SBC200 is a big plus."
Making it possible for the hosts to hear clearly and comfortably was of equal concern. Janes opted for the PSM 1000 personal monitor system, which provides music-quality Interruptible Feedback (IFB) audio and enables each host to set his own volume level.
The PSM 1000 transmitter has been coupled with PSM 900 bodypack receivers. "The system's compatibility and ease of use has been a nice benefit," Janes adds.
Along with the bodypacks, the talent is equipped with SE425 Sound Isolating earphones for IFB. "The sound quality far exceeds what we'd call our 'traditional in-ear drivers' that we had been using for years, and because of the way [the SE425s] custom fit, they help isolate the noise on-set. The quality of the in-ear driver also allows the announcers to use less volume and protect their hearing in the long-term."

Historical Traveler Reviews Holiday Inn Oxford
Nice hotel
My family and I stayed here for one night. We got to Oxford early and the room wasn't ready. It wasn't their fault, since we arrived way before check-in time. We killed the time, by having something to eat and then swimming in the pool. The pool was nice and warm, and the people at the club were friendly. The staff at the hotel were friendly as well, one in particular was helpful. She worked at night. The room was small, but clean, modern and comfortable. The shower was nice. The breakfast was good, with a nice selection and you could order a cooked breakfast. It was easy to get into the city centre by bus or taxi. One thing that was a nice touch, was the pillow menu. You could select the type of pillow you wanted. I have never seen that before. If I came to Oxford again, I would definately stay at this hotel again.
Modern, good standard rooms
The prices vary a lot, I sty here regularly and have had room prices from 67 pounds to 160 pounds so always book early and ask for a better rate. The rooms are modern and very comfortable and are the major attraction, the location, while convenient for the shuttle into oxford centre, is cjaracterless sitting alonside the motorway. The staff are usually charmless but if you can get a good rate it is not a bad place for a few nights
OK but go for the Travellodge, it's cheaper!
We stayed here in March this year for a short break to Oxford. Yes the location is excellent for the Park and Ride service into Oxford City Centre but we were disappointed to find a Travel Lodge on the same site. They are much cheaper and fine if all you are using the hotel for is a base. This hotel is very much a business, swish hotel, with lots of foreign speaking staff, although quite helpful. DO NOT try the Little Chef (or Little Thief as we now call it!), VERY expensive and terrible breakfast. Much better to travel into Oxford and eat there. Can recommend Zizi's, Weatherspoon Pub and also if you fancy driving up towards Woodstock, there are some fab pubs on that road.
Excellent standard
We stayed here partly because we had a car, and partly because we had membership points to use up at this chain of hotels. Initally I was a bit sad that we were not going to stay at some gorgeous B&B in town, but after arriving I was very pleasantly surprised.
There is parking on site and the park and Ride stop is only a few minutes walk away. We found the room to be of high standard - very clean and with excellent facillites in the bedroom and bathroom. We did stay in an Executive room which may have been of higher standard than a standard room. Also, although the hotel is literally right at the motorway, we had a room overlooking the side of the hotel away from the road and it was extremely quiet.
We did not eat at the hotel so I cannot comment on the food.
Overall, a clean, modern hotel with parking and close to the park and ride. The hotel was of very high standard and I would not hesitate to stay again
Lovely hotel
Stayed here for a long weekend, loved it, clean, staff helpful, very good value for money they did not charge for my daughter who is seventeen for meals or board. would recommend this hotel to anyone.
Much better than the average motel
A fine hotel. Buses from the nearby park-ride lot go into the city centre every 8 minutes during the day (every 30 minutes at night), so the location is not as bad as it sounds. Clean, modern, comfortable. Be sure to check for special prepaid rates.
The only flaw is that my non-smoking room had a smell of smoke coming into it through the air conditioner. When I complained, I was immediately moved to another room that did not have the problem. Cause was never determined; it may be bad design, or it may be someone smoking where they shouldn't.
Note that there is no hotel restaurant. Right in front of the hotel is a Little Chef (similar to an American Shoney's or Big Boy), but if you want good food, eat in town (e.g., at Brown's or Bella Italia).
adequate located just outside town next to the park n ride but someone forgot to build the footpath between the 2!! rooms are bright clean and comfortable gym is tiny and fills quickly located in a sort of service station area so eating options available
Very good hotel for someone with a car
This was an excellent hotel, and a far better deal than hotels that I tried near the center of Oxford. This hotel is about a 10 minute drive from the center, and there is a shuttle bus available. This is not a quaint old hotel, but rather a modern well-run business hotel. The room was very large and modern, with excellent facilities all around. I was very pleased to move here from an old hotel (Royal Oxford) in the center of town that was charging more.
This was a great hotel to stay in! I found it tough finding a 'chain' hotel in oxford, and i like the holiday inns, so whenever i go away, i try to find one. This was by far one of the best hotels i've stayed in. Immaculately clean, friendly staff, lovely bar, and in a nice location. Only problem was finding something to eat that evening, but the hotel suggested a nice little pub, which was great. I'd strongly recommend this hotel to anyone looking somewhere to stay in Oxford.
First class Hotel
This hotel lives up to its 4 star rating. The standard room has its own individual air conditioning (we spent a very cool night on a hot July 2 day stay)
State of the art interactive T.V. with Playstation and latest pay for view films.
Toiletries included and choice of pillows for sleeping.
Swimming pool good (all one depth) and my wife says you will not want to get out of the jacussi.
Resteraunt exellent with good food for breakfast and dinner and excellent waiter service.
But above all the staff were very friendly and helpful.
We enjoyed it so much that we are going back again for our 35th. wedding anniverary.

The epic journey continues
We hired our car from Hertz in London (the new Audi in fact) and set off, aiming to get half way to Stirling in Scotland. We stopped off in Oxford ended up taking a two hour walking tour with a charismatic man who had lived in Oxford all his life and also studied music at the university (now 26). We heard stories of William Buckland, CS Lewis, Tolkein, quirky locals and Town vs Gown fights. We also learnt about the religious and imposing architecture and ...

... but not before Sweden and I stopped at KFC. Eva had claimed that it tastes better here, so we wanted to confirm the hypothesis. We were not impressed, but apparently we were supposed to order the wings and not popcorn chicken. Next time... We still had about an hour to wait though, so I suggested a bar across the street. As we sat, I watched one of the workers put up a sign that said today there were half price bottles of wine. (Oh, really?) We all ...

When I hesitated, he just asked for me, and the pizza guy was like, oh oops. Pizza Man! Come on! But the pizza was still fabulous. All the deans and PAs ate together in the Pembroke office and watched Wimbledon, and then Goldfinger. I stepped out for a bit to walk around the Christ Church meadows again, ...

Last day at work is on the 30th of November and my flight had been booked and paid for - 7th December; economy flight, of course, Gatwick to Madrid and then to Mexico City, 19hrs.

Disclosure: I'm a professional Penetration Tester
We find plenty of this sort of setups at our customers. Customers set up VPNs, have a password policy and a virus scanner. They have firewalls and keep user policies restricted. Then we come and we trojan someone, or find a weak WiFi password or whatever we use to get a foothold inside their network all it takes is one little mistake and we're "in". Once we get there, we log keyboards, get password hashes from network or system memory and start to pivot all over the place. Usually, our software will trigger virus alerts, but staff doesn't react to those "in a timely fashion" and we get to keep going even though alarms are going off on several computers. We could cloak our malware and sometimes we do, but usually it's too much trouble and we get domain admin passwords within a few days and rule the network in such a way that admins wouldn't be able to get rid of us if we would rootkit and backdoor properly.
It takes more than some policies and a VPN these days. You need IDS, proper procedures, layered security and skilled, motivated staff that knows how to deal with security incidents. You need properly trained and aware users that aren't afraid to admit they messed up and that have no problem reporting others doing wrong either. Don't trust on a single technical measure, but implement them all and make sure you test and train on a regular basis. Get a data classification policy and protect data according to that policy. That means that stuff like SSNs and anything that can be used for identity theft should get extra layers of protection and alerting implemented. If you don't do all this, a serious intruder will usually get what they want.
No amount of careful planning will ever replace dumb luck.

Andrew Getty, the 47-year-old grandson of J. Paul Getty, died Tuesday in his home in Hollywood Hills, the Los Angeles Times reported.
The Times, citing Sgt. Kyle Kirkman of the Los Angeles Police Department, said Getty's cause of death has not yet been determined.
Officer Norma Eisenman told CNN the LAPD was investigating the death of a man who was declared dead at his home in the 2900 block of Montcalm Avenue.
Getty's home is on that street. Eisenmen said the man was not breathing and unconscious when he was found.
Getty is the son of Gordon Getty, one of three sons of J. Paul Getty, the oil tycoon was thought to be the richest man in the world at the time of his death in 1976.

Heads up: Top comment and controversy
Christian Men's Defense Network blames Obama's victory on 'slut vote'
08 November 2012 09:15 AM
Judging only by the number of trolls and lunatics it upset, Obama's election victory was a good day for America. Here the Christian Men's Defense Network hits a peak of vileness, ruing the day women were ever allowed to interfere in government and blaming Romney's defeat on the "slut vote".
Under the title "What the Right Doesn't Get About Elections" Blogger B-Skillet turns his attention to the decline of married women as an electoral force and the rise of "sluts" in their place.
Society's to blame: "Women want to delay marriage as long as possible so they can 'have it all,' and usually 'have it all' means 'have as much hot alpha sex as possible without any consequences.'"
And the sneaky Democrats, says B-Skillet, are willing to subsidise this with things like free contraception, thereby winning for themselves the "slut vote".
What this election proves beyond doubt is that "Republicans lose because they discount the existence of original sin in women."

Vintage Civil War
The American Civil War (1861–1865) was a civil war in the United States of America. Eleven Southern slave states declared their secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, also known as "the Confederacy". Led by Jefferson Davis, the Confederacy fought for its independence from the United States. The U.S. federal government was supported by twenty mostly-Northern free states in which slavery already had been abolished, and by five slave states that became known as the border states. These twenty-five states, referred to as the Union, had a much larger base of population and industry than the South. After four years of bloody, devastating warfare (mostly within the Southern states), the Confederacy surrendered and slavery was outlawed everywhere in the nation. The restoration of the Union, and the Reconstruction Era that followed, dealt with issues that remained unresolved for generations.

Is spying wrong?
Is spying wrong?
Well not when it is the left-wing doing it to political opponents, and using criminals to enable it.
But widely, no it is not. I almost never agree with Michael Field, especially over Fiji, but this may well be a watershed moment for both of us because I happen to agree with his column the other day about the spying revelation of Nicky Hager.
It is not paradise out there in the South Pacific and while our friendly neighbourhood might be democratic and understand rugby's off-side rule, corruption, self-interest and idiocy stalks their capitals.
And dangerously surprising things like coups, civil war and mutinies happen, and they have a real and direct impact on New Zealand.
The Snowden Papers suggest spying in the South Pacific is something new, but the reality is that we have been spying on Pacific countries for decades.
Back in 1914 London asked New Zealand soldiers to invade German Samoa. We said yes, but asked if they could give us some details of German defences. London replied we would look it up in an encyclopaedia.
These days acting like that is not on.
Time-shift to today and pick a Pacific country that suddenly finds itself with people being killed, buildings on fire and assorted bad people breaking into police armouries – as happened in the Solomon Islands.
New Zealand's Special Air Service was on the way to save lives – what are they expected to do for useful intelligence, Google it?
As open as Pacific states can seem to be, it takes specialist knowledge and focus to know who the real players are.
Mobile phone metadata does not provide that.

Managers to The Fore On ADE's Day 2
By Amsterdam
The second day of the 14th Amsterdam Dance Event began in controversial fashion during an exploration of the importance of managers for dance artists.
Speaking at a Q&A session, Eric Harle -- who represents Moby, M83, Fever Ray, Royksopp and Swedish singer Robyn -- was vocal in his support for artist managers and criticised proponents of 360-degree deals for failing to "bring anything extra to the party, but [yet] they expect to take revenue from areas in which they have no expertise."
Harle continued, "Ironically now, most of my artists work without label deals, and I find that we are able to proceed at our own pace and I get to do what management does best, which is enabling artists to focus on live performance and recording."
Technological advances were at the fore in a subsequent panel entitled: "App-earance: To App Or Not To App." During it, Canadian recording artist Brian Transeau admitted that he spends more time these days working in X Code, the programming language that forms the architecture of mobile applications, than he does programming songs.
"The application for my last single "Roads Of Jericho" has a back-end feature that enables us to monitor how much time people are spending using the remix app, and the average is 43 minutes, which is incredible given that the app only features one song," Transeau said. "That tells me that people want to interact with music at least as much as, if not more than, simply listening to it."
Later in the day, a panel entitled "Behind The Scenes of the DJ Scene" featuring DJ/remixer Nick Warren alongside Olga Heijns, manager of DJ Roger Sanchez, provided some interesting insights into the backstage reality for top DJs.
"Contrary to popular belief, the era of the open checkbook is not entirely dead," Heijns said. "One of my artists was recently asked to remix a song and we were told that we could name our fee. But we refused because the song was awful and what they really wanted was that DJ's name on the remix to add credibility to a failed project."
The day culminated with showcases from NYC-based label Star 69 Records and Holland's leading dance label Flamingo Records.
Backing up his growing reputation as Holland's next big thing, Fedde Le Grand, whose recently released second album "Output" (Flamingo) has been widely praised for its mix of funky house and up-tempo hip hop, delivered a well-received set. Label mates Funkerman and Shermanology also played tight, syncopated sets far removed from the drab trance sound more usually associated with Holland's dance music scene.

Many comic book fans around the World were devastated when the hit DC show Smallville came to an end, so it was good news all round when it was announced that Arrow was being made. Arrow is nearing the end of its first season and has been such a success that it has been renewed for a second season.
In the first season of Arrow, Emily Bett Rickards has had a bit of a cameo role as Felicity Smoak but it has been confirmed that her character will become a season regular for season two. Emily has admitted that she is delighted by the nes and proud to be involved with such a good character.
Rickards was chatting to the guys over at Collider, when she told them, "It's grand, in all senses of the word. It's fantastic, and I'm elated. It's also a big deal. I just feel really honored that I get to explore the character for a little longer. That's the dream."
She added, "I actually get to live a character. I have to say goodbye to her for a little bit. I'm on break from her for three months, but I haven't really said goodbye. Sometimes I find myself shopping and I'm trying something on that's so not me. It's weird."
Arrow season one continues to air on The CW on Wednesday nights. Arrow Season two is expected to premiere on The CW later in the year.

ECID v.s. WIDE EYES AND PHILLIP MORRIS
Triple Rock Social Club
629 Cedar Ave S.
Minneapolis, MN, 55454
Doors 9:00 PM / Show 9:00 PM
This event is 18 and over
Ecid, mc/producer & fill in the breaks poster child is one of those rare artists that can rap, write, & produce in an arguably equal fashion. As a writer/mc Ecid crafts thoughtful, visual, honest, Heart over mind songs. As a producer he is the definition of a record digger. His sample based/drum heavy beat-scapes can be colorful, abrasive, grungy, simple, beyond bizzy, soulful, sparse & or dark. As a fearless leader Ecid is aimed at building "Fill In The Breaks" into one of the premiere indie-hiphop labels in North America, all while leaving America as paranoid & afraid of themselves as ever.
"Biograffiti" was Ecid's coming of age record, a personal glimpse at a twenty something just trying to figure it all out. "Economy Size goDD Costume" was his f--- you record, an awe-inspiring, jaw dropping, honest to goodness middle finger in the face of society's time tested cliché's. And "Red Beretta" his third official solo album is the career-defining album that people five years from now will associate him with.
Known for his intense, personable, & insanely energetic live shows. Ecid has shared stages with the likes of KRS-ONE, Eyedea (E&A), Awol One (Shapeshifters), Sole of Anticon, OMD, 2MEX, QWEL of Typical Cats, Prince Po (Organized Konfusion), Blueprint, Glue, Hanger 18, Heiruspecs, POS, Sims, Cecil Otter, RA The Rugged Man, Killah Priest, Grayskul, Blowfly, & Count Bass D to name a few.
His new album Red Beretta, which is a "concept" album based on the bizarre events that turn a modern day hero into a monster is in heavy rotation on college radio stations across the US and has received praise from fans, peers & press alike. So check it out. Or else!
"Ecid is playing some really cool audio games with the samples he uses, and some of the production techniques help pull the listener in and keep them there. It's not only a rapper's album, but it's for the production heads too, who will be smiling at the known sounds and scratching their heads at the unknown ones for days, if not months or years."- OKAYPLAYER.COM

I have frizzy, wavy hair that I either have to dry and straighten or add product and "scrunch". I absolutely LOVE this product as I can work a dollop through my hair and it helps tame the frizz. It smells amazing - think instant transportation to your fave beach - and isn't at all sticky or greasy. I leave it in to work it's magic and hit my hair lightly with a blow dryer. My hair is soft, shiny and frizz free.5
This felt really nice in my hair. I have coarse, curly hair that isn't necessarily thick but very voluminous. After I washed this out my hair felt moisturized, but it was a little heavy. Definitely follow the instructions to lightly shampoo afterwards if you have thin/fine hair.4
This is the best hair treatment I've gotten from Birchbox so far. I have short, oil-prone hair and many leave-in conditioners/hair masques really weigh my hair down, but I really liked this one! I applied it pretty liberally to my ends, and then just lightly touched the strands on the crown of my head with the product leftover on my hands. I left it on for longer than the suggested time while I was doing the rest of my evening beauty routine, and after i washed my hair & let it air dry, I had beautiful, tame hair. Not greasy at all! The only thing I didn't love was the coconut scent. It's not unpleasant at all, I'm just not a big coconut person. The smell didn't linger after it was washed out, though, so don't let that be a dealbreaker for you.5

Alexander Graham Bell was home schooled until he was 11, after that he went to Edinburgh's Royal High School for 2 years and also attended Weston House Academy in Elgin where he studied Latin and Greek. While he was at Weston House Academy he also taught elocution to music students.Know More
When Bell turned 25, he began his own school in the city of Boston. The School of Vocal Physiology and Mechanics of Speech helped teach deaf people to speak. Bell later became a professor at Boston University, his title was Professor of Vocal Physiology and Elocution. He worked at Boston's School of Oratory. He was only 26 years old at the time and was given the post even though he did not have a college degree.Learn more in Inventions
On March 10, 1876, Alexander Graham Bell invented the first practical, working telephone. His first words on the telephone was to his assistant in the next room, "Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you." In addition to the telephone, Bell is known for his work with communication among the deaf, and held 18 patents in his name alone.Full Answer >
Alexander Graham Bell created the telephone through many years of experimentation with sound waves. Bell got the idea from the phonautograph that he had invented prior to draw sound waves, and this inspired him to think that it might be possible to generate electrical current that corresponded with sound waves. Bell thought that if he could cause the electrical current to imitate the sound waves, he would be able to project voices the same way that telegraphs transmitted Morse code over wires.Full Answer >
Alexander Graham Bell invented and patented the telephone in 1876. He was 29 years old at the time. Within one year, he started Bell Telephone Company.Full Answer >

Investors who celebrated their dividend windfalls over the holidays could have a profitable new year, too -- they just have to figure out which companies still have the money for more payouts.
Anticipating 2013 tax hikes, more companies made extra-dividend payments in the fourth quarter than at any time in the past 45 years, reports Howard Silverblatt, senior analyst for S&P Dow Jones Indices. More than 600 companies paid sizable special dividends and/or moved regular 2013 dividends into 2012, three times as many as in 2011.
A bird in the hand and all that, but what about the future? Next year's dividends will vary by company because of all the changes in last-minute extras this year, says Chuck Carlson, author of The Little Book of Big Dividends. Oracle ORCL -0.2549246813441483% Oracle Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD43.04 -0.11 -0.2549246813441483% /Date(1427911376017-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 6330205 P/E Ratio 17.631147540983605 Market Cap 188439069578.659 Dividend Yield 1.394700139470014% Rev. per Employee 318369 More quote details and news » (ticker: ORCL), for instance, moved 2013's first three payments into 2012, while Washington Post (WPO) advanced its entire 2013 dividend. Still others, like Costco Wholesale cost -0.9076207135549028% Costco Wholesale Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD150.12 -1.375 -0.9076207135549028% /Date(1427911331020-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 662883 P/E Ratio 29.06782945736434 Market Cap 66653858833.7451 Dividend Yield 0.9467297819854656% Rev. per Employee 593010 More quote details and news » (COST), borrowed to pay huge special dividends.
"This unprecedented development will produce any number of distortions, and people need to focus more than ever on payout sustainability," advises Carlson.
Never easy, estimating which companies still have payout headroom will be tougher than ever in 2013 -- and especially for firms that paid it forward. Yields are likely to be overstated and payout impacts understated, agrees Silverblatt. A quick way to find those most affected is via Barron's sister publication, The Wall Street Journal and its table of holiday payers (online.wsj.com). Digital Journal subscriptions start at $22 for three months.
The list is comprehensive and sortable by several dividend characteristics. But it doesn't include payout ratios, the most common measure of dividend sustainability. It's a simple calculation, for those willing to dig up each company's trailing 12 months' earnings per share on Yahoo Finance (finance.yahoo.com) or Reuters (reuters.com), and then divide it into the year's dividend. (Calculations using forward estimates are more complicated).
A more convenient source is the payout-ratio table on Carlson's Website (bigsafedividends.com). The free list covers all payers in the S&P 1500 index, which includes most dividend issuers. The sortable table, which also offers useful information like yields and payment dates, will be regularly updated throughout 2013.
What constitutes a "safe" dividend? It varies by balance sheet, says Carlson, who doesn't like to see dividends claim more than 60% of earnings. The average payout ratio has been 52% since the 1950s, reports S&P Dow Jones Indices, and should end 2012 at about 36%. That's an encouraging sign. But averages cover wide disparities in individual ratios, points out Carlson. Smaller companies, in particular, may have overreached in the fourth quarter.
Large-caps can afford their largesse. The 404 payers in the S&P 500 index are flush, says Silverblatt. These companies' generally clean balance sheets recently included a record $1.03 trillion in cash and cash equivalents. The crème de la crème of this group are the 51 current index members that have raised dividends every year for the past 25 years, also known as the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats (us.spindices.com).
That's great, if you're satisfied with 2% yields, says Harry Domash, founder of Dividend Detective (dividenddetective.com). But subscribers to his $15-a-month newsletter are looking for high single- or even double-digit yields. Payout sustainability is expected, so Domash uses cash from operations, not earnings, in his regular screening of dividend payers.
"It's the ultimate source of dividends," he says, "and is free from other income-statement elements like borrowings."
Prospects that survive his screens are sorted by legal type, sector, or investing strategy. For example, Bulletproof Stocks include companies like SandRidge Permian Trust PER 0.6019690576652602% SandRidge Permian Trust U.S.: NYSE USD7.1528 0.0428 0.6019690576652602% /Date(1427911353342-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 68638 P/E Ratio 2.9474463969710687 Market Cap 373275007.009506 Dividend Yield 36.63781066741134% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (PER), whose fundamentals suggest they can support its 13.4% yield.

Floor refinishing
I am getting ready to strip, fill holes, sand, stain and top coat solid oak flooring in my dad's home that hasn't seen the light of day in 41 years.
My nephewvdoesn't like my methods or materials. I am using Johnson Wax Professiona;l grade stripper (water based mixed 3:1). Mixture is on the flooring about 7 minutes, is then scrubbed to loosen up the old junk, wiped down and then lightly mopped with water and dryed with a cloth.
I'll then use a Minwax stain, professional grade poly top coat (perhaps two with light sanding in-between) and finish with a paste wax top.
He claims any water-based is bad (amongst other things). I'm following the directions and have done plenty of furniture refinishing. I've used several different types of stippers but this seems to be the easiest and least toxic to use, aside from a dip tank utilizing acetone, alcohol and laquer thinner when I was in Idaho. I have never done a floor before but to me, oak is oak and this is furniture onloy on a bigger scale.
I think my nephew, who is in financial trouble, is just bucking to get hired to do the job. My dad's home is now an estate and we are readying it for sale.
Thank you in advance.

Day 99 of my 'A Photo A Day' project.
This is a stack of books in our living room. The horrible weather that has moved in today has really made it feel like winter is well and truely on its way… the first time it's almost been dark on my arrival home from work. Due to this fact, I had to hunt around inside to find my daily photo, where I eventually found this.
