text: What I know for sure is that anime dubbed in Tagalog (language in the Philippines) is usually crap. I'm Filipino, I understand some Tagalog, and I know that everything sounds either silly, awkward or both when it's in Tagalog. The last time I was in the Philippines, I watched Dragon Ball Z and Naruto in Tagalog and I was like "WTF?" Compared to that, the English version for both series sound superb.

Denie's medical training being put to use in Haiti
It's been a long week for Detroit Lakes residents John and Mary Lee.
When news of the devastating earthquake in Port au Prince, Haiti, hit the worldwide airwaves Tuesday, they were understandably anxious.
Miquette Denie, a young Haitian who lived with them while attending DL High School on a Rotary Exchange scholarship in 2000-01, and returned to live with the Lees while obtaining a nursing degree at Concordia College, is a Port au Prince resident.

"Arch Conservative perspective"
It's great to listen to a well reasoned argument for a morally bankrupt position. This book, which contains a case for strict constitutionalism, is 100% correct in terms of nominal law (laws on the books) but 100% off-base in terms of natural law (what is right and wrong). If the author had his way, we would still have slavery and we would not be a united country. That being said, the author is absolutely correct in his criticisms of the notion of "constitutional law". Draw your own conclusions from this conundrum. A good read.
"powerful novel of pre-idustrial age england"
The writing was superlative. The story was a little creepy. The main character was a great tragic figure. And it is a novel regarding place as well - the way in which he refers back to roman times was really fascinating - makes me want to visit the locale. This was a great book and a great production. Thanks.
"pulitzer prize winner for a reason"
This is a great study of the psychology underpinning homelessness and addiction. The move with Jack Nicholson and Merryl Streep was good, but don't miss the book - very good.
"Loved it!"
I've seen the movie, listened to the screenplay on audible and now finished the novel - great story. Thanks for making it available.
"Truth is strnger than fiction"
The history of washington's life almost defies belief -that a man could be so level headed and constant in his service and his convictions. There is a reason for why so many landmarks are named in his honor.
"Well Done - and better than the movie!"
Better than the movie (which I loved) because (1) there is no corny romance element to the story; and, more importantly, (2) the defending attorney does not shame the aspiring novelist for having undermined the Captain, but he rather shames the aspiring novelist for having effectively removed a mine sweeper during the most dangerous period of the War in the Pacific. This slight variance is important and it makes it clear that the stakes were super high and the impact of such a mutiny had the potential impact on more than just the reputation of a distinguished captain, but rather on the outcome of the war. Based on this, I am inspired to read Woulk's Winds of War and War and Rememberance.
"Another good reading by C Griffin"
Classical ancient history - gotta take it all with a grain of salt and be thankful that it came down to us. This particular text, which focuses on Alexander the Great, is an excellent resource if you want to understand one of the major pieces of evidence we have covering his campaigns. Get the "Landmark" history book (Robert Strassler) for Arian which covers the exact same text and includes all of the maps and pictures.
"Great WWI History"
I loved this short history which aimed to explain the historic precedents / underpinnings to the WWI outbreak. It is an excellent book for those who are relatively new to the subject and want an insightful perspective on the great war. An example of one of the the author's key insights is that one could argue that World War I ended with the fall of the Soviet empire in 1989 (we traditionally refer to this as the "cold war").
I.e. WWI sounded the death knell for many fixtures of western civilization (the Ottoman Empire, the Hapsburg dynasty, etc.) and the effects of this colossal rupture (analogous to the fall of Western half of the Roman Empire in 410 AD) reverberated through the remainder of the 20th century, manifesting itself in WWII and the Cold War. In fact, we still feel the effects of the WWI rupture today, and historians in future generations may look upon the entire period subsequent to WWI as a single historic event (again, similar to how we view the formation of Europe as a function of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire.
"Reading was good"
Reading was good, but I am not convinced with the author's whole "point" which seems to be that, because we live in a peaceful, prosperous time, we somehow need a vent, or outlet, for our violent tendencies and the inherent void within ourselves. Perhaps this is true for the author but it is certainly not a "universal problem". Rather than "fight club", why not contribute positively to the community by volunteering to help others?
In any case, I was hoping the book would have more of a message than the movie, but I was sadly disappointed. I know my review is controversial, so I'll caveat this by saying "just my 2 cents".
"Bite-sized Faulkner"
The short stories of Faulkner are an excellent intro to his writing style and his Mississippi subject matter. A lot of these stories connect into his novels, or they are original drafts of chapters of his later novels. Pretty insightful stuff if you give it time and read through these. The readings are performed by a variety of narrators who all do an excellent job. Highly recommended. He's considered to be one of the best writers in American history - so this production is a valuable resource for people who do not have the time to sit and read, but want to expose themselves to one of the greatest fiction writers.
"Interesting history of the Jewish revolt from Rome"
This book will give you a very detailed sense in terms of what was happening in the Holy Land during New Testament period - roughly the period when Acts of the Apostles was set. I'm not a huge fan of Josephus as he was effectively a traitor who received huge financial benefits from Rome. This book is an example of "victors write the history" because Josephus' account is practically all we have. Nonetheless it was good ancient history with yet another solid reading by C Griffin.

BY THOMAS SOWELL, Investor's Business Daily
Thomas Sowell
I am so old that I can remember when most of the people promoting race hate were white.
Apparently other Americans also recognize that the sources of racism are different today from what they were in the past. According to a recent Rasmussen poll, 31% of blacks think that most blacks are racists, while 24% of blacks think that most whites are racist.
The difference between these percentages is not great, but it is remarkable nevertheless. After all, generations of blacks fought the white racism from which they suffered for so long. If many blacks themselves now think that most other blacks are racist, that is startling.
The moral claims advanced by generations of black leaders — claims that eventually touched the conscience of the nation and turned the tide toward civil rights for all — have now been cheapened by today's generation of black "leaders," who act as if it is all just a matter of whose ox is gored.
Even in legal cases involving terrible crimes — the O.J. Simpson murder trial or the charges of gang rape against Duke University students — many black "leaders" and their followers have not waited for facts about who was guilty and who was not, but have immediately taken sides, based on who was black and who was white.
Among whites, according to the same Rasmussen poll, 38% consider most blacks racist and 10% consider most whites racist. Broken down by politics, the same poll showed that 49% of Republicans consider most blacks racist, as do 36% of independents and 29% of Democrats.
Perhaps most disturbing of all, just 29% of Americans as a whole think race relations are getting better, while 32% think race relations are getting worse. The difference is too close to call, but the fact that it is so close is itself painful — and perhaps a warning sign for where we are heading.
Is this what so many Americans, both black and white, struggled for, over the decades and generations, to try to put the curse of racism behind us — only to reach a point where retrogression in race relations now seems at least equally likely as progress?
What went wrong?
Perhaps no single factor can be blamed for all the things that went wrong. Insurgent movements of all sorts, in countries around the world, have for centuries soured in the aftermath of their own success. "The revolution betrayed" is a theme that goes back at least as far as 18th-century France.
With Ted Cruz announcing and Rand Paul and Marco Rubio soon to follow, it's time to start handicapping the horses and making enemies. No point in wasting time on the Democratic field. There is none. The only thing that can stop Hillary Clinton is an act of God, and he seems otherwise occupied. As ...
Every day the Chinese go to work, Americans get a raise: Chinese workers, many earning each day about what Americans spend on a Starbucks latte, produce apparel, appliances and other stuff cheaply, enlarging Americans' disposable income. Americans similarly get a raise when they shop at the stores ...
Hillary Clinton's expected presidential run is being hailed as a chance to shatter the glass ceiling. That, of course, is nonsense. Hillary rose to power solely on her husband's sleazy coattails. She's not self-made. And it shows. The recent email scandal is the latest in a lifelong pattern of ...
It is amazing how a simple question can cause a complex lie to collapse like a house of cards. The simple question was asked by Bill O'Reilly of Fox News, and it was addressed to two Democrats. He asked what has Hillary Clinton ever accomplished. The two Democrats immediately sidestepped the ...
Don't just rely on Benjamin Netanyahu's passionate advice to Congress on his way to re-election that Iran is our archenemy. Now we have the counsel of retired Gen.

Dates: Friday 24th- Sunday 26th Feb 10am-4pm
I hope I haven't mislead anyone as I was not aware there was a £15 admission charge to view the items. Poor show
Poor show???it was advertised in various trade papers as a catalogue day before the house contents are auctioned.
So why comment poor show??
Because Caroline Borwick posted on the s1Dalry website about the open day to encourage visitors, here was the perfect time for it to be mentioned there was an admision charge. Sorry Irvin you should have noticed this!
Ok Caroline Borwick should have made herself more clear on s1Dalry,but that said the ads I saw clearly stated that it was a catalogue day prior to sale of objects within the catalogue and that the price of veiwing/admission was £15.
I probably would have noticed had I been on s1Dalry but its not a site I visit very often.

Plenty of parking, children's play areas and a number of pleasant walks through the woodlands with an Ice House and the Duff Mausoleum to add to the overall experience of visiting the estate. Although incomplete it is a delight to find a country mansion that has done well under local authority stewardship, assisted by Historic Scotland and many others.
A lovely parkland course set in the middle of the Town of Banff. A pretty straightforward test of golf with very little in the way of rough, but a beautifully maintained course with the River Deveron coming into play on a couple of holes. Friendly staff in the Pro Shop, Bar and Kitchen with nice food at very reasonable prices,...
I visited Duff house with my eleven year old son. The house is beautiful and the staff/volunteers are very helpful and informative. The portraits in the house are on loan from Edinburgh , it's a pity there not from the house. The staff were very happy to share the history of the house. Would highly recommend a visit.
Been a few times over the years classic place to visit, I have visited to tour the house, for exhibitions, for a promotion luncheon which was very good, they have a cafe doing good food and drink
Duff house has large grounds, goal posts, which makes it an ideal place to have kickabout with the mates. Also it has some lovely woods for a nice walk. And at the end of that you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the tea room. Or you can look around the old house.
Duff House in itself is a bit Austere, however the staff make you feel very welcome and even invite us to sit and play at the grand piano. Unlike some national treasures, we didn't feel we were being watched all the time but that the staff were there to answer questions and help. We had kids in tow and they...
This is really a review of the small cafe contained within the main house, you can visit the cafe and the grounds of the house separately. There are some amazing walks to be had in the grounds if the house, great if you have a dog or just fancy a good walk. The house is run by Historic Scotland and...
Set in lovely grounds ideal for walking with nice views of the area, interesting history, nice tea shop.
Nice for a walk around on a rainy day, staff are frendly and knowledgable, cafe was nice had Cullen skink was very tasty. Slightly mismatched displays but other than that interesting. Nice little gift shop.
We arrived at lunchtime and stayed until it closed.
There is quite a lot to see in the house. We started with the short film explaining the history of the house, the purchase by Historic Scotland to the use now as part of the national art galleries of a Scotland.
Each room has a collection of paintings, furniture and artefacts....

MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. -- Northern Westchester Hospital (NWH) has announced the recipients of the annual Janet Harrower Nurse of Distinction Awards.

My OH won't eat them with the skins on Alan! Personally, I don't even mind a bit of soil left on things I eat! We couldn't be more different really.
Hi nikki, yes, if you have somewhere which isn't waterlogged (does anyone?!) I would get them out now. They need a bit of cold to trigger the bulb to split into cloves. If they don't get that they might just grow into larger single bulbs - still useable in the kitchen but not ideal. Given the weather, putting them under open-ended cloches for a while might be a good idea to keep the worst of the rain off.
These deep pots are what I use to grow-on clematis before I plant them out:
If they are small plants/large plugs, they stay in these for a year before being planted out in about mid-march. I plant them 2 inches deeper than when they arrive into these pots and then 4 inches deeper still when I plant them into the garden in a year's time (in March). I have lost small clematis by planting them into the garden too quickly so am always patient and stick to this method now.
I have heavy clay and keeled slugs but Kestrel were untouched last year and also the best tasting so those together with Sante (also slug resistant) and Pink Fir Apple are my selections for this year. The last one will get attacked but I just can't resist the taste so some damage is acceptable (and being knobbly means cutting out the damaged bits doesn't add much longer to the preparation time than the rather tedious peeling!)
For anyone just starting out I recommend you get a pack with several different varieties (eg 6 x 10 tubers) if you have the room. Potatoes grown on different types of soil DO taste different, so you really need to find out which grow and taste best on your particular plot. I grew over 50 varieties before finding 8 or so that I really like and do well. I still try a row of a new variety every year, too (Mayan Gold this year.)
Happy spudding, spudders!
I would mix them together, cover to stop the rain getting in, and let them compost until spring. I think you'll have some lovely stuff by then.
The video is there reverett, I just played it to check. It needs your computer to have Adobe Flash Player installed so you could try installing or updating that. This link is for Windows computers:
Apple iPads don't support Flash videos without installing a different web browser:
How long will you make them dj? Soil is very heavy when wet so you ideally want to drive some 50x50mm (2" x 2") stakes into the ground about every metre along the length and screw the boards to the stakes to prevent them bowing outwards under the weight.
Sue, it's because millimetres are often the standard unit quoted the UK building industry now - whereas we used to buy (say plywood sheets) in standard sizes of 8ft x 4ft, suppliers now size them as 2400x1200mm. I say we should go back to cubits myself - the majority of us permanently carry two cubit measures around with us - they are very 'handy'!
Bumped for those talking about potatoes today.
PS, as to your earlier question regarding frost, it would be risky to put them in a greenhouse with missing panes at the moment. Better would be in an unheated room of your house by a window. If you don't have such a place, the greenhouse will have to do but cover them with some garden fleece which will keep the frost off of them.
Yes, if you can actually see what you are buying then avoid any that already have shoots longer than 1/4" (5mm) as these have been kept in too warm a place. Also avoid any that are soft or look shrunken or crinkly. A good seed potato at this time of the year should be firm and have tiny buds in the eyes rather than developed shoots.

Jonah Hill Re-Lists SoHo Loft For $3.5 Million
March 30, 2015 1:15 PM
Jonah Hill is still trying to unload his New York City loft, and this time he's lowered the asking price a whopping $300,000.
The SoHo townhome first popped up on the market last summer for $3.8 million, and the Wolf of Wall Street star has re-listed it for $3.5 million. Interestingly enough, curbed reports that he put it on the rental market last fall for $12,000 to $14,000 a month.
The 2,000-square-foot abode as two bedrooms and two baths, and while it may be on the small side, it does have 13-foot ceilings, new appliances and pretty awesome views. The pad has its original 100-year-old hardwood floors and exposed brick walls, but the bathrooms have been redone with marble and the renovated gourmet kitchen has a decidedly modern feel.
Hill purchased the home in August of 2012 for $2.6 million, so either way, he'll swing a profit on this...

Alexander Skarsgard Sells Los Angeles Home To Rooney Mara For $2.9 Million
March 18, 2015 12:23 PM
From one celeb to the next!
Alexander Skarsgard has sold his Los Feliz home to Rooney Mara for $2.9 million, according to a source for Variety's Dirt.
The home was sold in an off-market deal, so there's not much information about it, but the True Blood hunk bought the place for $1.85 million just three years ago, so we were able to dig up listing info from back then. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom mid-century modern home only has 2,479 square feet of living space, but it boasts wonderful views of Los Angeles and has a reasonably large pool.
The residence was built by architect Phil Brown in 1963, and though the layout seems great, the kitchen looks like it could use a few updates. But maybe A Skars remodeled the place on the sly? That would certainly explain the price increase!
Tom Cruise's Hollywood Compound Hits The Market For $13 Million
March 17, 2015 1:33 PM
Well, let's clarify something -- this home is rumored to belong to Tom Cruise. You see, he's never actually lived here, but according to Dirt, one of his sisters did. Cruise has apparently had the place for over a decade now, so perhaps he once had dreams of turning it into a fancy Scientology retreat?
Anyway, the gated and super secure property sits on two lots totaling over 2.5 acres on Mulholland Drive, and it's hit the market for just under $13 million. The estate was purchased for $11.65 million in 2005 "by a pair of mysterious corporate concerns in two separate transactions," according to Dirt.
The main residence has three en-suite bedrooms and a fully detached guest house has four bedrooms and four bathrooms, and both structures boast 280 degree views of the city and the ocean. There are hardwood floors, a spectacular chef's kitchen and there are a number of terraces outside, along with a gorgeous swimming pool.
Cruise primary residence is a $30 million Beverly Hills mansion, though he's previously had other properties in Los Angeles and New York City. A few months ago he put his nearly 300-acre Telluride ranch on the market for $59 million, so he's definitely been making some movies with his real estate portfolio over the last few years.

Tom Cruise Lists Telluride Mountain Estate For $59 Million
March 11, 2015 12:58 PM
This place was where TomKat's romance began!
Tom Cruise has listed his Telluride, Colorado, mountain estate for a whopping $59 million, the WSJ reports. The action star purchased the pad sometime in the nineties during his first marriage to Nicole Kidman.
Located on 298 sprawling acres, the 10,000 square-foot residence boasts 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, as well as a library, gym, and recreation room. The grounds feature a 1,600 square-foot guesthouse with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, in addition to private hiking and riding trails and a sports court that can be used for basketball, tennis, and ice hockey.
The interiors of the property are described as "white bleached cedar timbers, dove-tail joinery and native stone," according to the marketing materials.
If this abode looks familiar, it's because the A-list actor and then wife Katie Holmes used it as the setting of their now famous Vanity Fair photoshoot where they introduced daughter Suri to the public.
The Hollywood legend is reportedly parting with this real estate because he's too busy with work commitments and his personal life to spend time enjoying it.
