Last U.S. debate neglects foreign policy realities
By Jeffrey Goldfarb
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.
from The Great Debate:
What women want is political key
No matter how artificial and canned the candidates can seem at a presidential debate, no matter how competent or ineffectual the moderator -- the nominee's true self will peak out at some point.
from The Great Debate:
Why it's all about Obama
President Barack Obama may have lost the first debate the minute he appeared on stage in Denver. Just by showing up, he changed the terms of the campaign. Viewers immediately saw the election as a referendum on the president. The decision became whether to fire him or rehire him.
from Tales from the Trail:
Vice presidential candidates by the numbers
The vice presidential candidates who will take the stage for a debate at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky this week are just as polarizing as their running mates, according to Reuters/Ipsos polls. "Very unfavorable" was the most commonly held view of both men.
from Entrepreneurial:
Small tech CEOs say Romney better for the economy: survey
Regardless of who won the presidential debate, the majority of executives from small technology firms would feel better if Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney wins next month's general election.
from Tales from the Trail:
Romney's strong debate draws cheers and relief from Republicans in Congress
Mitt Romney's strong debate performance eased concerns by fellow Republicans in Congress that his recent struggles could be a problem for all of them on Election Day.
from The Great Debate:
It's not the economy, stupid!
Tonight's debate could be the most negative presidential debate ever. That's because the best thing each candidate has going for him is negative opinion of the other guy.
from Tales from the Trail:
Obama takes a break from debate prep – at the Hoover Dam
U.S. President Barack Obama took a break from preparing for Wednesday night's debate with a quick visit to the Hoover Dam.

It's your pictures from that Republican debate! They're too dark. I can't even tell who these people are!

Does Anyone Care About a Simple Tax Code?
By Howard Gleckman :: April 10th, 2014
One of the biggest selling points for tax reform is the claim that a new and improved revenue code would be easier for taxpayers to manage. Along with economic growth and fairness, simplicity has been a watchword for reform for decades. But a striking new survey by the Associated Press-GfK has me wondering whether anybody cares. […]

Yes, computer software makes filing easier (both for professionals and civilians). But that may be the problem. The relative ease of filing, […]

Anzacs return home: shell shock and tragedies
Anzac stories are usually steeped in bravery, honour, and sacrifice. But, what about the darker side? The question must be asked: if we are selective about the stories we tell, do we devalue and sanitise the Anzac legend?
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Stories of Anzac often depict the glory of victory, the honour of serving, the fierce battles, and the mateship.
Rarely is the darker side of war and its repercussions touched on.
But for many soldiers, the blood they saw and the battles they were involved in gnashed at their minds when they returned to everyday life.
Anzac soldier Frank Wilkinson was one of the many who suffered upon returning, resulting in a devastating end for both him and his family.
On his soldier settlement land, where the banks and traders clamoured for payment and his wife and child looked to him for support, Frank couldn't see a way out.
He snapped, and killed his wife and daughter, before turning a gun on himself to silence the pain.
Frank's is one of many stories that flies in the face of the Anzac legend, that challenges the sanitised version of a war hero.
History Professor Bruce Scates believes that we do a disservice to the Anzac memory.
"It's time, 100 years on, that we have the courage and simple honesty to stare the horror of the Great War in the face and say 'this is the long term impact of war, this is what happens when you send young men and women to fight war'."
He warns against only depicting "positive nation-building stories."
"It's important to get the balance right, to honour the lives of all those who went to war," says Professor Scates.
By telling the darker, less comfortable stories, Professor Scates believes that as a nation, Australia may be able to better understand and treat the emotional wounds of war.

Membrane bioreactors and their uses in wastewater treatments
- Pierre Le-Clech
- … show all 1 hide
Rent the article at a discountRent now
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
With the current need for more efficient and reliable processes for municipal and industrial wastewaters treatment, membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology has received considerable attention. After just a couple of decades of existence, MBR can now be considered as an established wastewater treatment system, competing directly with conventional processes like activated sludge treatment plant. However, MBR processes still suffer from major drawbacks, including high operational costs due to the use of anti-fouling strategies applied to the system to maintain sustainable filtration conditions. Moreover, this specific use of membranes has not reached full maturity yet, as MBR suppliers and users still lack experience regarding the long-term performances of the system. Still, major improvements of the MBR design and operation have been witnessed over the recent years, making MBR an option of choice for wastewater treatment and reuse. This mini-review reports recent developments and current research trends in the field.

49ers' green stadium gets them gold status
The 49ers have built the first sports stadium in the country to be awarded LEED Gold status upon completion, owner Jed York announced on Monday via Twitter. A LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification is recognized as the premier mark of achieving environmentally friendly architecture. The Ravens -- whom the 49ers will visit next month -- have the NFL's only other LEED Gold building. They got it by retrofitting M&T Bank Stadium last year.
The 49ers' stadium achieved the certification through a number of means, including water use. About 85 percent of the water used in the stadium is recycled or "gray" water. The type of grass used, Bermuda Bandera, also requires up to 50 percent less water than other types used in the Bay Area. Another major reason for the green designation is Levi's Stadium's solar panels, which will sit atop the three bridges that lead to the stadium as well as the roof of the tower suite. The team expects that the power generated from those panels will offset the power used in the 10 NFL games played there each year.
The 49ers also used recycled products in the construction -- recycled wood, for instance, in the luxury suites. The building also is surrounded by public transit options, and the 49ers have a plan to accommodate cyclists on game days.

4x4 hoop height?
Hi all, last week we finished making hoops for our 4x4 sfg. I know there have been posts regarding making them but how about the correct height? We live in north east Pennsylvania and I know these wont withstand the heavy snow we get on occasion without some help by sweeping snow off (I do this with our shed as it collapsed 3 years ago from snow) As for the wind issue, what would the optimal height be for hoops on a 4x4. Currently they are 44 inches above the box which are 2x8 boards. I am thinking about cutting up an old hose to make clips for the pvc pipes as well for some extra help.
I do not have to deal with as much snow as you but I do have to deal with winds up to 75 mph sometimes. I always cut pvc to length for desired height depending on what I plant to put in it. Generally speaking, the curved top is determined by width of frame. The taller the legs, the weaker the structure is to wind and heavy loads. I like at least 6 inches above my plants.

Written on: 31/05/2011
I knew I wanted a vintage wedding dress for my wedding from the start. I was slightly hesitant about ordering vintage from an online store because I want to feel and touch the quality of the item. I emailed many questions about the dress and got very quick responses. I finally decided to take a leap and order the dress because it was exactly what I was looking for my wedding. I love the dress! It is just how it was described through the website and email communication. The shipping was a little slow (I got the dress a week and half later), but that wasn't a big deal. My only reservation is the dress was shipped wrapped in tissue paper and stuck in a priority box. I would have thought for a $400.00 order the shipping would have been slightly more elaborate. All in all my experience was great and I will order from Posh Girl again.

HoopsHype Luc Richard Mbah a Moute rumors
Mbah a Moute said he would like to see the NBA increase its efforts to recruit in Africa. "The rate at which it's going, I don't like," he said. "I would like to see it bigger and faster. But [basketball] is growing. The NBA is doing a good job of trying to get in the continent. There's more African players or African-descent players coming into the NBA, so that's been good as far as helping. But I think we need more guys going in there and trying to do stuff to help. We do our best and there's a lot of other guys in the NBA who have some African blood that are trying to do stuff. The more we do that, things are going to continue to get better." Boston Globe
Luc Richard Mbah a Moute: Congrats @Cristiano for this FIFA Ballon d'Or ! #soccer #football #Ilovethisgame Twitter @mbahamoute
Derek Bodner: MCW will play tonight against the Cavs, Luc Mbah a Moute is out. Henry Sims will start in his place. #sixers Twitter @DerekBodnerNBA
He discovered Embiid in 2011 at a basketball camp in their homeland. Mbah a Moute has advised the 20-year-old ever since. "It's kind of like a big-brother, younger-brother relationship," Mbah a Moute said. "I've mentored him the last four years since I saw him back home and brought him over" to the United States to attend high school. "It's been interesting to see him grow from a young kid back home to an NBA player." Philadelphia Inquirer
Bob Cooney: Luc Mbah a Moute out with strained calf. Hollis Thompson (upper respiratory) sent home to recover, Joel Embiid sent home to work out more Twitter @BobCooney76
Mbah a Moute is the only player in head coach Brett Brown's rotation that has more than three years of NBA experience. "You are trying to teach them to be pros," Mbah a Moute said. "It doesn't happen overnight. For some people, it doesn't happen the first year or the second year. It takes time. I try to show them how to carry yourself, how to go out there and compete, play hard and do your best." CSNPhilly.com
An NBA source said Shved has a chance for some minutes and that Mbah a Moute is also expected to stay, as opposed to being waived or bought out. Young, who makes $9.2 million, was likely to decline his $9.7 million player option next summer, making him an unrestricted free agent. This way, Hinkie gets something in return for Young. Bucks County Courier Times
Tom Moore: #NBA source "anticipates (#Sixers) keeping" Mbah a Moute for 2014-15 season. #76ers Twitter @tmoore76ers
The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired forward Kevin Love in a three-team trade that sends guard Andrew Wiggins and forward Anthony Bennett to Minnesota and a projected 2015 first round pick (via Miami) to Philadelphia, General Manager David Griffin announced today from Cleveland Clinic Courts. As part of the three-team trade, Minnesota will also acquire forward Thaddeus Young from the 76ers, while Philadelphia receives forward Luc Mbah a Moute and guard Alexey Shved from the Timberwolves. "Kevin joining the Cavaliers represents a very special and unique opportunity for our team. At only 25, Kevin has already firmly established himself as one the NBA's elite players and his talent, versatility and fit are major parts of our team's vision for success," said Griffin. "We want to also wish Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Bennett the best as they will continue the start of their careers in Minnesota. They are both outstanding young men that have great potential on the court and long, very successful careers ahead of them." NBA.com
The Minnesota Timberwolves today announced the team has acquired Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett, Thaddeus Young and a trade exception in a three-team trade between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Philadelphia 76ers. In exchange, the Wolves will send Kevin Love to Cleveland while sending Luc Richard Mbah a Moute and Alexey Shved to Philadelphia. The 76ers also received the rights to Miami's 2015 first-round draft pick from Cleveland in the trade. Minnesota will introduce its new acquisitions at the Minnesota State Fair on Tuesday, August 26. Additional information regarding the introduction will be issued later today. "We are excited to add three young, talented and athletic players to our team in Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and Thaddeus Young," said Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders. "With the additions of Wiggins, Bennett and Zach LaVine this summer, we have brought in three exciting young athletes who all have the potential to have an impact in this league. All three of them complement each other very well and we believe they will be foundations of our team for years to come. In Young we are getting a proven NBA player who is entering the prime of his career. Our fans will enjoy watching these exciting players this coming season and beyond. NBA.com

Canaveral Cove
AnnaJo Vahle
Painting - Acrylic On Gallery Wrapped Canvas
This was the second of three paintings I did of this little sunken sail boat. I set up my easel on the beach of the Banana River in a little cove near the Canaveral Lock. I found a nice little out of the way spot between some mangrove trees. It took me several days to paint this. It was a peaceful time. As I concentrated on my work, fishermen waded out into the water to seine bait fish. This gave me the idea to wade out in the knee deep water from time to time to better study up close the details of the boat. It also was a nice way to cool off.
One day, the master of the Lock a few hundred yards away, asked to see my painting. He gasped in horror as I told him that I had been wading out to the boat. He told me that was the home of �Big Bertha.� He further explained that I had been sitting in her nesting site. Big Bertha is the largest alligator that he has ever seen. She sometimes swims through the Lock. She hung out in and around the boat. The very same spot I had my easel was where she usually had a nest.
There are lots and lots of alligators in the area and he assured me that she was by far the largest. Plein air painting can be dangerous, I suppose! Fortunately, I was never bothered by her but as I worked on the next painting, I did see her swim up close to me every once in a while. She never actually �hauled out� near me when I was there.
You can see Merritt Island in the background. You can also see the bridge crossing the Banana River from Cape Canaveral to Merritt Island. Another sailboat sits at anchor behind the sunken one.
The Canaveral Lock, is the largest navigation lock in Florida. It is located between Port Canaveral's West turning basin and the Banana River, Canaveral Lock was constructed by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1965 to secure safe passage of vessels from the Banana River to Port Canaveral and the Atlantic Ocean. The lock reduces tidal-current velocities in Canaveral Harbor, prevents entry of hurricane tides into the Banana River and prevents salt water intrusion. This lock was built larger than originally planned to allow passage of the Saturn rocket's first stage, used to put Apollo rockets into space.

Great point of view looking inland (west). At first I thought it was like most pictures looking out to sea. I'm glad you didn't meet up with Big Bertha. Your choice of colors is very natural. Abandoned boats are an eyesore, but here the sailboat seems to be going fishing in the cove.
Thanks ever so much, Richard. Yes, it was kinda nice to have a land mass between the water and the sky. I liked having the bridge there. I, too, am pleased that I didn't have any problems with Big Bertha.

I noticed that when using a
FragmentPagerAdapter the Fragments that are non-adjacent to the current one are having their views destroyed (and their
onPause() and
onStop() methods called, and strangely
onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) isn't being called), and
onCreateView is being called again for these Fragments. My problem is that I have some
Timers running on these Fragments, and recreating them isn't viable because these timers should fire and update the relevant fragment UI. For large screens I used a
HorizontalScrollView with a
LinearLayout and it works flawlessly.
The relevant code in my Activity:
private class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter implements TitleProvider {
public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
if (position == 0) {
return mAddNewScenesFragment;
} else if (position == 1) {
return mGlobalEventsFragment;
} else {
return mSceneFragments.get(position - 2);
public int getCount() {
return mSceneFragments.size() + 2;
public String getTitle(int position) {
if (position == 0) {
return "New scene";
} else if (position == 1) {
return mGlobalEventsFragment.getTitle();
} else {
return mSceneFragments.get(position - 2).getTitle();
The fragments are created on the Activity's
onCreate method and others can be added to the list at runtime, but even without adding new ones, the third fragment is destroyed when I scroll to the first one.
Is there a way to avoid their destruction or should I just forget about
ViewPager and use a
HorizontalScrollView for small screens too? I choose to use it because I think the "fixed" behavior really helps with usability.

I'm wondering how much time I have to get all the pies made, or how long the filling can safely sit in the fridge before being made into pies.
I was planning on getting them all done in a couple of days, but a friend who wants a pie is away and won't be able to get hers until next week. Will it be okay to let it wait for a week before I bake it?
That long will allow for molds and such to begin to grow. Why not just fill the pies and freeze them now then give her the frozen pies for baking when she returns?
If you don't want to fill the pies now then just freezing the pie filling.
Unbaked pies freeze beautifully. They take longer to bake but the crust is actually better. I prefer all fruit pies to be baked from a frozen state. Having an extra pie or two in the freezer is like money in the bank.
Freeze unwrapped until solid then wrap securely and label. (I wrap with foil- which can always be reused - then place in a large plastic bag.)

WoW: Upper Blackrock Spire Guide
Get Your Friends Ready for This Instance!
We now have a complete guide to the 10-man instance known as Upper Blackrock Lair (UBRS). UBRS is home to Nefarian's army of evil black dragonkin along with the Blackrock Orcs under his control. Our guide contains all of the information and tactics you need to claim both victory and plenty of good loot!
"Upper Blackrock Spire (commonly referred to as UBRS) is a sprawling 10-man instance locked away within the Blackrock Mountains. Similar to Blackwing Lair (BWL), Blackrock Spire was once one of the strongest strongholds for the Dark Iron Dwarves. However, it has a new owner. The nefarious Nefarian now controls it and is using it as a staging ground to amass his army. The upper level is designed for ten players inside of a raid that are all above level fifty-seven. The upper level contains a wealth of gear that is needed for Molten Core along with the ability to complete quests related to the attunement for Onyxia's Lair and BWL."

I got a "settings" class (in a ownmade subfolder "etc" (in Visual studio)) it has a Boolean propertie named "boobackcolorred"(value = TRUE in the first form it puts it to true). Now I am making a WPF window for my settings and I want to use a checkbox where you can change the value of the boalean. I want to do this in the "XAML" way.(I can do it by making the event checked & unchecked but I don t want to do it that way.)
settings.cs: (in the "etc" folder I created in VS)
class settings
public static Boolean boobackcolorred{ get; set; }
... // some extra code that does nothing with this, some xml reading and saving but doesn t matter for this issue.
Now I am trying to do this with this xaml checkbox
<CheckBox Content="Red Background?" Name="chbbackgroundred" IsChecked="{Binding etc.settings.boobackcolorred,Mode=TwoWay}" ></CheckBox>
OFC this isn t going to work I tried many ways of getting this to work. tried to include stuff like this:
also tried to bind the datacontext of the grid where the checkbox is in but no luck.
I know this can t be hard. However the answer will be greatly appreciated.
PS: it should be twoway binded so if unchecked the static boolean becomes false.

Texas Bill Would Require Women To Take Adoption Class Before Abortion
I've had it. Dozens of restrictions to abortion access have already passed this year across the country, with Texas in the national spotlight. And just when we thought it couldn't get any worse, politicians in the Lone Star State have stepped up to the plate, yet again, to restrict women's health in what may be one of the most demeaning ways yet.
Earlier this week, Texas State Sen. Eddie Lucio introduced a bill that would require a woman to take a three-hour class on adoption before she could get an abortion. Keep in mind that a woman in Texas already has to undergo counseling before getting an abortion, and the state's materials include information about adoption.
This can't be serious.
Does Sen. Lucio think we're stupid? Does the Texas legislature think that women don't know about adoption? Do our elected officials really believe that women can't make complex decisions? It seems that way, doesn't it.
Maybe we should require our elected officials to take a class on women. Maybe these politicians need to have someone explain to them that women have brains just like men, and like men, we can make our own decisions about our lives, and our families.
We all need to be able to make informed decisions about the medical care we seek, but this bill implies that women don't know how to find this information and make these important decisions on their own. We should make sure all options are available to every woman, and ensure that each woman receives unbiased counseling and accurate education. But the information should not be intended to shame or pressure the woman into changing her mind or making a decision that is not right for her. This bill is political interference, not informed consent.
It's time for legislators to listen to medical experts, to their constituents, to common sense. It's time to leave these personal, private decisions to us. Legislators should get out of our doctors' offices. Tell your legislators that you are not stupid.

⬅ Return to Secretary Gates Says Americans Should Not See Torture Photos
Nov 16th, 2009 at 3:48pm
YOU are the cause of 9-11. and the down fall of this country.Please keep it up your doing a good job as the destoryer of my country. From a 70 year old american who is ashamed of this country.
You have taken away our BALLS Thanks for nothing.
Nov 16th, 2009 at 3:49pm
This is what i thought would happen when the fist time the gov't acnowledged the topic. To make these photos not available for the public to see is a clever way of hidding what has been done. Then they claim it will hurt nationial security if these crim photos get released. The bad part about this is this can spill over to the NYPD or any other PD across the nation to use as their new tool. All they have to do is say the photos of the person they just beat up cant be released because it will be a danger to the city. Its an exellent cover up tool, its just ashame that a country and a administration that that about public disclosure is doing the opposite.
Nov 16th, 2009 at 3:52pm
I believe that you will find Congressman Duncan Hunter's self incriminating statements made during a U.S. House Armed Services Committee hearing a few months ago to be much more harmful than these photos. The following information is provided:
Congressman Hunter served as a 1st and 2nd LT, USMC during the period of 2002 to 2005. From 2005 to present time, he serves in the USMC-Reserves and currently holds the rank of Captain. While on active duty he spent two tours in Iraq and has spent one tour in Afghanistan since his discharge from active duty.
In 2008, Hunter was elected to the House of Representatives filling the seat that his father vacated after 28-years. He is assigned to The Armed Services Committee and to the Education and Labor Committee.
Source of Self-Incriminating Statement:
C-SPAN recently aired a House of Representative's hearing on "Military Commission and Detainee Policy". The hearing can be viewed on the Internet at C-SPAN's Website Video Library.
At the 2hour, 1 minute, and 57 second part of the video, Hunter clearly incriminates himself, others, and the military establishment of war crimes being perpetuated in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Summary of Statement:
Hunter states that the Department of Defense lawyers make life hell for people like him fighting the wars. The DoD laws makes them kill more people. Soldiers and Marines do not want to capture insurgent suspects so they kill them. He (Hunter) seen it happen. Judge Advocate General (JAG) officers, usually 03 - 04 (Captain - Major) level, frequently advise the Generals to release the suspects instead of holding them. The troops release the detainees as directed and then kill them. He (Hunter) seen it happen.
Per his own statement on public television, Congressman Hunter has broken numerous articles of the UCMJ. As a Captain in the USMC-Reserve, Congressman Hunter remains subject to the USMJ and therefore, should be investigated, charged and tried under a Courts Martial if the charges are true. In addition, persons that he names as the killers of the detainees, their immediate superiors, and higher echelon military leaders that condoned these war crimes should be investigated and held accountable.

Potential Articles of UCMJ That Apply:
Article 77—Principals
Article 78—Accessory after the fact
Article 90—Assaulting or willfully disobeying superior commissioned officer
Article 92—Failure to obey order or regulation
Article 93—Cruelty and maltreatment
Article 98—Noncompliance with procedural rules
Article 133—Conduct unbecoming an officer and gentleman

Releasing these photos would do nothing but inflame anti-american setiment domestically and abroad. This would not only endanger our men and women who serve over-seas, but these pictures being made public would also endanger civilians who's employment takes them to foreign lands.

Wars can't be won when broadcast on tv. Photos of the methods in which we try to WIN them are of no business being shown. The photos would only anger our enemies more so and retribution would be more suicide bombs or another 9-11. Whats wrong with you people here at the ACLU. We're you all picked on in school? National Security over rides certain civil liberties. Some things are just none of our business. We do have free elections where wqe can vote people out due to poor performance. How come none of you ever support conservatives? You mean to tell me every liberal, democratic president has been perfect?
You're gonna have us all dead or attending islam classes before its done.

First of all, I would like to say to people that make comments on websites and do not tell their name and use screen names or names like anonymous...they do not sound credible.
Second of all, I am one of the few people on this planet that is not scared of any secrets that I may be hiding...why is that...because I am not hiding any secrets!!!
Third of all, Mr. Gates the real reason you don't want to release those pictures is because the world would see the horrific filth behavior that was done to those prisoners! Do you know that I actually saw one of your former co workers literally nailed to a cross in the abyss choking on live crow after I had surgery at a corrupt hospital in Philadelphia back in 1993. Of course you recall which co worker I am referring to...his name is Robert James Woolsey. He and the entire CNIA [CIA] are in big trouble. You see the reason why Woolsey was literally nailed to a cross in the abyss is he thought he was more powerful than Jesus and he found out that he wasn't. It seems to me it would have been easier for him to tell the truth!!!
I ask you Mr. Gates to reconsider and show those pictures to the world. And, to you numbnuts that think this is some kind of threat...that is so far from the truth. I am simply telling you what the real records say. Those would be the Akashik Records! Not records that the CNIA redacts. Not records that the CNIA shreds. The REAL RECORDS!!!

If the war mongers are so concerned that these photos will enflame Anti-American sentiment why do they keep spouting Anti Muslem hate propaganda on the internet?Don't you know that Muslems
have computers and can read what you folks are saying about them?
But then again what can we expect from chicken hawks who fight their wars on internet blogs while others get killed in the real wars that these idiots love so much.

Dear Paen,
I agree with what you sare saying, people need to be more aware of each others feelings. If you continue to spread lies over the internet, complaining about the concequences is silly.
But then again, I am not a cedible source. To be honest, I'm not even a woman. Well not anymore... ;)

That's right. Our debut album is now available to stream and download in full from here. This is what people have said about it so far:
"…packs more inventiveness into 36 minutes than most bands of
this ilk manage in an hour…an accomplished debut that displays
their talent to its fullest extent"
The Blue Walrus
"Rumour Cubes have truly delivered on this fine debut
"…an accomplished debut effort from a potentially brilliant
The 405
"Rumour Cubes carry themselves with an essence of individuality
that makes them all the more intriguing…six astounding songs that
will coincide with you in a haze of resentment, melancholy and
Sound Revolution
"I also don't see many bands creating something as unique as
'Triptych' or as pretty as 'Tempus Fugit'"
The Silent Ballet
"…enormous variety and no flat spots."
Echoes and Dust
"Rumour Cubes made a fantastic album (debut, nonetheless!) in
The Narrow State."
"All in all Rumour Cubes' The Narrow State is one of the best
post rock albums I ever heard. The great sounds, the fantastic mix
and the songs themselves – post rock doesn't get much better than

Cornish Coastal Path South: Marazion to Mevagissey
Cornish Coastal Path South: Marazion to Mevagissey information and booking
Schedule Details
- Summary
- Walking Around the Lizard and Roseland Peninsula
- Stunning Coastline of Beaches, Coves and Cliffs
- Naval History and Castle at Falmouth
- Picturesque Ports & Fishing Villages
Tour description provided by World Expeditions
This holiday includes a wonderful variety of coastal scenery ranging from sheltered tidal creeks to the wooded Fal estuary and the brooding cliffs of the Lizard, England's most southerly point. The whole area is designated an area of outstanding natural beauty. Its mild climate permits even palm trees to flourish and Cornwall is the home of some of England's finest gardens. Cornwall historically is the land of smugglers, shipwrecks and dark deeds in secret hidden coves, many of which you will pass through on your walk. It has literary associations with the poet John Betjeman, who was tongue-tied by the spectacular cliffs, Virginia Woolfe and of course, the novels of Daphne Du Maurier. The scenery is as spectacular and picturesque as the tiny fishing villages. There are superb beaches, marvelous bird watching and botanical spots, and sunsets that will stay in your memory long after you leave. There are those who have completed the whole five hundred miles of this wonderful long distance trail, who's after dinner conversation touches on little else. Our moderate little week's walk can have just as powerful side effects.
What's included
- 7 breakfasts
- 7 nights accommodation in hotels and guesthouses on a twin share basis with ensuite facilities where available
- One piece of luggage per person transferred from inn to inn, not exceeding 20kg
- Information pack including route notes & maps
- Emergency hotline
- Day 1 Travel to Marazion
- Day 2 Marazion to Porthleven (11 miles / 17.75 km)
- Day 3 Porthleven to The Lizard (15 miles / 24.15 km)
- Day 4 The Lizard to Porthallow (16 miles / 25.75 km)
- Day 5 Porthallow to St Mawes (16.5 miles / 26.5 km)
- Day 6 St Mawes to Portloe (13.5 miles / 21.75km)

"We go!" written, composed by same team that created 1st theme song "We Are!"
The 41st issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is announcing on Saturday that singer Hiroshi Kitadani will return to the One Piece television series to perform the anime's new theme song "We go!" The song will premiere with the October 2 episode, which is also the launch of the New World story arc.
Weekly Shonen Jump describes the new song as an "answer song" in response to "We Are!" — the first One Piece opening theme that Kitadani also sang. Shouko Fujibayashi and Kouhei Tanaka wrote and composed "We Are!" and the "golden team" will return in the same roles for "We go!"

How to post a picture??????
I uploaded a photo to photobucket that I would like to post to this site. Photo is in an alblum.
Clicked on box below photo "select all". Then what? It doesn't take me to a different page. I clicked on the HTML clickable thumbnails, but copy doesn't come up. Everytime I click on share, it brings me to other sites but not the brug forum. Would like to post some pics.
If that doesn't work for you you can go to the bottom of the page and click choose action it will give you a drop down box click on generate link codes and it will give you a new page click in the first set of HTML codes "clickable thumbnails"
O.K. I know it sounds bad, but because I do not know enough, here is how I learned. First you are in gardenweb,posting, then you open the tab to photo bucket go to your pictures,select the picture you want then on to the htm code, then copy and paste to your post in gardenweb. I will go and find the link that was given to me on how to do this, I hope I did not confused you. Marcie

It can be frustrating to miss a few workouts, you worry about getting out of your routine and that you are going backwards with your fitness. Part of that is when we're sick we tend to see things on the negative side (at least I do). Hang in there and once your over the sinus infection and back on your routine you'll be back on track. I agree with Lela D. about focusing on your health, not your weight.
Hope you feel better soon!
Often, when you are taking cold medicines, it's easy to retain water. So, hold off on the scale until you are better. Plus, you are (and rightfully so) loading up on juices and salty soups which tend to hang around. The number PLUS whether you look toned in your outfits will help you determine what is your best weight. You may also be in a cold climate where it's been hard to exercise lately.
