Bacary Sagna is reported to have quit Arsenal and signed a three-year contract with newly crowned Premier League champions Man City, according to The Metro.
Sagna, who joined Arsenal in 2007 for €9m from Auxerre, had been offered a new two-year deal at the Emirates but, with his contract expiring this summer, the player has been widely linked with a move away, and indeed the player has previously admitted that he was unlikely to continue with Arsene Wenger's men. City have been one of the clubs linked with the France international recently, and reports from French newspaper L'Equipe now claim that the deal is done. The terms of the contract are thought to be worth around £150k-per-week, which would almost double the wages he was earning in north London.
Nothing has been officially announced at the time of writing, but it is believed Sagna also looked at offers from Galatasaray, Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco – the latter two being in his native homeland – but favoured a stay in the Premier League.

Name those good seed, bulb and plant catalogs
My garden is in its beginning stages. Would love to know what catalogs have quality seed, bulbs, plants and good customer service. Would like catalog names and your opinions.
I have compiled a list of sources for anyone interested. Go to www.freewebs.com/kathy547. Click on favorite websites. Most I have not ordered from but I tried to make sure they had good ratings from Garden Watchdog before I submitted their name.
Plant Delights Nursery is a great company. They are in (North? South?) Carolina, zone 7, so if it grows for them, there's a very good chance it will grow for us. Their entire catalog is online. Their prices are somewhat high, but they carry alot of plants you can't get anywhere else. Their plants are great and their service is excellent.
I also really like ForestFarm (absolutely huge selection), Lazyssfarm (web only: great selection as reasonable prices as I have found), GreerGardens (big selection, big plants, reasonable prices).
I second the motion for Brent and Becky's Bulbs. I also use McClure and Zimmerman and YuccaDu alot.
For seeds, I like DianeSeeds, which is an internet company. She gives alot of seed for the price and her instructions are excellent. GardenMakers, also on the net, carries very unusual seeds, also with good directions. I also like and use Nichols Seeds (GREAT vegetable selection and prices, plus unusual annual flowers), Park Seeds, and Burpee.
I'm glad to see some activity on this forum! I haven't checked in for a long time, and had almost forgotten about it. (Bored on the FIFTH rainy day from Fay in a row. Seven inches of rain and counting...not that I'm complaining.:)

Burning any fuel produces carbon monoxide. This means any fuel-burning appliance in your home is a potential source. Poisoning comes from inhaling enough of the gas that it replaces oxygen in the blood.
The Carbon Monoxide and Gas Safety Society says that on average, carbon monoxide poisoning kills 40 people a year and injures around 300. But it believes cases are under reported as there is no automatic testing for CO of people who die suddenly.
The initial symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu but without fever. They include:
If you have any of these symptoms -- and if you feel better when you go outside your home but the symptoms reappear once you're back inside -- you may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
If carbon monoxide poisoning is known or suspected:

reusable positive message graphics
- the story
Un-Panic Buttons
Think of these adhesive, canvas graphics as a handy way to refocus on positive energy throughout the day. The reusable "buttons," with their cheerful colors and charming, handmade typography, can provide a little burst of joy whenever they catch your eye—in an office or classroom, or even on notebooks, white boards or desks. Use them as a visual pick-me-up, or rest your hand on one and allow your mind to refocus on that particular quality. Displayed in a shared space, they can help create a "viral positivity" that spreads through a group or organization. Created by Amy Humes, who often turned to handwritten reminders of encouragement during the early days of her career, each design is printed onto canvas with a reusable adhesive backing that can be removed easily and leaves no residue on most surfaces. Made in Plymouth, Wisconsin.

Whether you're just starting out or a few years in, you deserve to hear the truth: being a CPA isn't just a job. It's actually a whole series of jobs, one after another, that before you know it add up to something pretty amazing: a career.
A career, mind you, that might very well include some stepping stones, stopgaps and maybe even a mistake or two. But really, there are no dead ends – in this profession, every route will lead you somewhere. You just have to recognize the forks in the road, pay attention to the turn signals and great opportunities will appear on the horizon. (No more driving metaphors, we promise.)
As with anything else, some of this will be the result of a fortuitous confluence of events ("dumb luck"), but there's an awful lot that's in your power to control. And whether through providence or preparation, you've just stumbled on a great resource to help sift your options and plan your career ahead.
This is the place to get more information on the kinds of career paths you can follow – public accounting, government, non-profit, business, industry, whatever – and the credentials you need to reach them.
It's also the place to get guidance on the questions that are bound to come up along the way. What should go on your next resume? How can you get plugged into professional networks? Should I work domestically, across the state line or go global

I'm trying to replace May with a Team Aqua member.
But he ends up being Black in the game, yet in Unlz-GBA it is exactly how it looks in Paint.
Do you know how to fix that?
View original post
The Team Aqua sprite needs to be indexed. To replace it easier, export the Team Aqua member sprite and then import it and replace Mat's sprite. Choose "Export Palette" when you insert the sprite.

With my own camera broken back in early '06 I've had to rely on the camera feature from my camcorder to take pictures with, but now I've got a fancy shmancy camera of my own I can waste thousands of dollars in new lenses for!
Quick! Run and take the atypical disney shots!!! Partners!! Twain on the river!! The grizzle rapids!!
Oh no! NOOOOOO!! No picture of paradise pier's boardwalk oh I've failed =( Guess you'll have to make due with your regular ole micechat sunday meet already in progress.
The meet was medium sized. A few old favorites were there including pocky-sharing. Even rabbit got a few carrotsticks worth. And we were overjoyed to hear that a new micechat baby would soon be joining us in a few months thanks to one of our very own micechat kiddos. Does a hidden stuffed animal get you front of the line passes?
"Pizza Port?"
"Hungry Bear?"
Take a guess at who they followed =)
Dusty and Bulb decide on what kind of bear appetite they have, but skip on dessert as someone's made the group home made cookies made with 80% "love," as it's called nowadays. Sounds like slippin' a mickey or some sort of cookie equivalent :P
We ate like the bears underneath the tall trees of the forest
Meanwhile it appears the baby's been born! It's a turtle! Duuuuuuude! The granddad looks so proud!
Both of our new little micechat troopers led our group today with interesting Disney factoids such as why they aren't allowed to ride in their favorite spot on Splash Mountain anymore because of the new height restrictions, and even pulled a micechatterism by asking the CM why the bluebird was missing. After being told that it had been gone a while now they replied "Oh well, but the goat's back!"
Rixter suggests the group check out an old fond memory of his by going to see the steel drum band on top of the Jungle Cruise dock.
Well there wasn't a band, but we found some steel drums before boarding onto our boat.
Dusty and Bulb mock the oncoming "danger"
Rixter began to blow bubbles and wiggles his ears, scaring the oncoming hippos and saving us all.... until what's that in the bushes?
Ahhhhhh oh they got us again totally by surprise. Dusty screams like a schoolgirl while Bulb is just angered.
All is saved when we pass through the backside of water.
On the way out we notice a small group, clearly tired from the lack of a sitdown restaurant inside the Tahitian Terrace, decide to create their own. We on the otherhand head towards Frontierland.
And here we are at Thunder only to see it's closed. Yippee kieyiiyay. Not to worry though because the trains are cycling and a line has already formed. We were minding our business at the end until a violently aggressive security member came and barked at us to move over against the wall. Just look at the anger and hostility in his face.
Marlboro Man Rixter tells us to hang onto our hats and glasses.. cuz the goat's back and this here's the wildest goat trick in the wilderness.
The choices were then given to the little micechatters. Would they rather go on Innoventions or Haunted Mansion? *sigh* Of course they had to pick the one none of us wanted to go on. What could be behind the ominous door? Why an aura of foreboding... And consider this dismaying observation... a first-person photo account from the hanging corpse as it collapses to the floor =D
With the park travels over and the oldchatters pooped a small part of the group decided to hang up their goldpans and settle down at the Hearthstone in front of the cozy campfire.
Towards the end, a weary old traveler came in and sat down on the fire mantle to share some tall tales of his childhood traveling to California through the great sequoias. A little kid named Dusty added, "they're very big sir"
And then the sun was setting so it was time I set off to prepare for my evening. Toodleoo!

Nabumetone is an NSAID where vics are RX opiates. They are NOT the same at all.
Lots of times they use toradol for kidney stones. It's also an NSAID but stronger and normally only used about five days.
If they won't give you a controlled substance then ask for toradol at least. It should help take the edge off at least.

Andre Berto-Victor Ortiz site set
MASHANTUCKET, Conn. -- On the eve of promoting a world title fight at the Foxwoods Resort Casino, promoter Lou DiBella made a deal Friday to bring another one here.
Welterweight titlist Andre Berto will make his sixth defense against Victor Ortiz at the resort's MGM Grand Arena April 16 (HBO), DiBella told ESPN.com.
DiBella also is promoting middleweight champion Sergio Martinez's fight against junior middleweight titleholder Sergiy Dzinziruk at the venue Saturday (HBO, 10:30 p.m. ET).
"It's a great facility and we're having great success with [Saturday's] show and Berto has fought the bulk of his fights on the East Coast, so it's a natural," DiBella said. "This is one of the best rooms for boxing on the East Coast. About 4,000 seats, not a bad one in there. We're having a great experience working with the property on this [Martinez-Dzinziruk] event and we're happy we're coming back."
Rafael's Boxing Blog
Get the latest scoop and analysis on the world of boxing from ESPN.com's Dan Rafael in his blog.
Finding a venue was not easy. DiBella had been looking for a site since making the fight with Golden Boy Promotions, Ortiz's promoter, in late January. He explored deals in Atlanta, Las Vegas and Chicago. He could have placed the fight at Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., but did not want to go there, in part because it was the home area of Ortiz. Berto is from Winter Haven, Fla.
DiBella was looking forward to the fight that matches a pair of former ESPN.com prospects of the year.
"I think styles make fights and you can't beat it. These are two guys that throw," DiBella said. "They both have power. For any critic who says it's a 140-pounder versus a 147-pounder, that's bull---- because Ortiz is actually bigger than Berto. It's the kind of fight I like to see. You know both chins are going to get tested. There's a lot of speed in the ring and also a lot of power. People know I like aggression and blood and guys getting knocked out, so this is my kind of fight."
Ortiz (28-2-2, 22 KOs), who is coming off a December draw against Lamont Peterson, is moving up in weight from junior welterweight to challenge Berto (27-0, 21 KOs). Ortiz has been struggling to make 140 pounds. He made weight for the fight with Peterson, but put on about 15 pounds between the weigh-in and the fight the following night.
Ortiz looms as the most significant opponent of Berto's career other than former welterweight titlist Luis Collazo, whom Berto outpointed in a hotly disputed January 2009 title defense. In his last bout, Berto blew out Freddy Hernandez in the first round of a November mismatch.
HBO will televise Berto-Ortiz on "World Championship Boxing," along with same-day taped coverage of junior welterweight titleholder Amir Khan's defense in his native England against Paul McCloskey of Northern Ireland.
DiBella said that on the undercard, former light heavyweight titlist Zsolt Erdei (32-0, 17 KOs) of Hungary will face an opponent to be determined in his second fight since signing with DiBella and deciding to campaign in the United States.
In addition, welterweight contender Selcuk Aydin (20-0, 15 KOs) of Turkey is slated to see action in an eight-rounder against an opponent to be determined. Aydin is Berto's mandatory challenger, but twice has taken deals to step aside to allow Berto to fight other opponents.
Aydin is hoping to impress enough on the card that he can whet the appetite of HBO executives to buy a fight between him and the main event winner.

The USDA report reiterated the significant impact family-owned farms have on U.S. agriculture.
USDA Report: Family-Owned Farms Remain Backbone of American Agriculture
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agriculture Statistics Service released a report on March 17 that showed 97 percent of today's U.S. farms are family-owned. Researchers claim that family-owned farms remain the backbone of the agriculture industry, according to the report titled, "What is a Family Farm?"
By definition, a family farm is a farm where a majority of the business is owned by the operator and individuals related to the operator. This can be through relations forged via marriage, blood, or adoption.
"As we wrap up mining the 6 million data points from the latest Census of Agriculture, we used typology to further explore the demographics of who is farming and ranching today," said NASS Statistics Division Director Hubert Hamer. "What we found is that family-owned businesses, while very diverse, are at the core of the U.S. agriculture industry. In fact, 97 percent of all U.S. farms are family-owned."
There are approximately 2.1 million farms in the U.S., and 88 percent of them are considered to be small family farms. About 58 percent of direct farm sales to consumers come from these small farms.
"Whether small or large -- on the East Coast, West Coast, or the Midwest -- family farms produce food and fiber for people all across the U.S. and the world," Hamer continued. "It's due in part to information such as this from the Census of Agriculture that we can help show the uniqueness and importance of U.S. agriculture to rural communities, families, and the world."
Additional data from the report, as well as highlights and infographics, can be accessed on the U.S. Department of Agriculture's website.

A Lexi will do almost anything for a friend. She is amazing and beautiful and has the highest goals. She loves to laugh and has the most amazing eyes. Shes artistic and has the voice of an angel. She has amazing dancing skills but when it comes to making people laugh shes got a 100 out of 10 ability. She is super nice and friendly so never be nervous when approaching a Lexi but if you mess or hurt any of her friends you better be ready to feel her wrath. She gives awesome advice about everything you can ask but is most likely not the best with comebacks. She tries her best to keep everyone happy and can keep secrets under lock forever. She is trustworthy and kind and will never try to purposely hurt you. She is hyper and often called cute or adorable but has very bad luck with boys. Her mind often shuts down when talking to the opposite sex and she falls in love very easily. She is very quiet but once you get to know her she is a fire cracker of life. Once she sets her mind to something it is done. She is unique and loved by all. She has many opinions and is always thinking. She is a once in a lifetime girl who can never be labeled. Never think bad of a Lexi Lewis because she will most likely be the one to change your life forever
Looking dang fine lexi lewis!

Short distance travel? Walk. Avoids the health risks of all that car-sitting. How is your road funding going, by the way? $65 billion in bail-outs to the delightfully insolvent highway trust fund, the industry slumped out dead over the "build new road" lever and crickets on the topic of funding basic road maintenance are a few of the blinking red warning signs I've noticed. Ah, hmm, looks like they'll be needing another "bridging the gap" road funding tax increase in Seattle, as the previous one has already run dry. And my oh my look at the potholes! Heh heh.
Well, if you like throwing money at symptoms, I guess this might help (how much will it cost?). Won't do anything for the broken road design, where the Federal manual literally defines a street as "see: highway." Speed on, car-sitters. Meanwhile, those looking for a less, ah, passive role in their daily transportation options might instead consider what the Strong Towns folks are saying.
the barista fumbled with the card for a few swipes, unplugged and replugged the card swipy thingy and then after a few more swipes and apologies, much as one would whack a misbehaving laundry machine with broom a bit, the magic went through. I paid with cash. I guess a few of the vendors at the farmer's market also take those swipy thingies as well (slowly...connection? no?).
The tight couplings to the power system and lord knows what all else is doubtless a Normal Accident waiting to happen, but the power is always on, packets always flow, and the data centers always run, right? — resilient. That's the word I'm looking for.
There is alien life. I believe they are called "Hungarians."
"Have You Ever Heard of Plato? Aristotle? Socrates?"
Renewable generation plus better energy storage, such as hydrogen production and then use in fuel cells or hydrogen tolerant combustion engines.
Next problem?
One problem with renewable generation would be the order-of-magnitude higher costs Germany has shelled out for renewables (same cost as building the entire French nuclear fleet) mostly to just replace the German nukes while still retaining a hefty appetite for Carbon. Another problem is the oops-not-yet-invented-nor-even-a-path-to-market of whatever your "better energy storage" might be (pumped storage is, well, the Tenn. Valley Authority were rather shy about the efficiency numbers of such when a coworker asked, and I guess there's a lot of battery research going on but that invention thing and being viable in the marketplace are still two rather important hurdles). Otherwise, I've certainly heard much of Hydrogen since those Caltech folks wheeled a Hydrogen car around their parking lot back in the 1970s, then shelved it. In related news, TEPCO is proposing a new coal plant for Fukushima, China in 2011 had 79% coal burn for their energy, and Carbon consumption since the 1990s has grown at a faster rate than renewable usage has.
A businessman and governor can certainly come to some sort of mutually willing and beneficial agreement regarding the management of, say, coal fly ash on the property of said business, perhaps in the area of how well all those expensive regulations and inspections are carried out, and Governor Pat McCrory did work for Duke Energy all those years. Oh, your downstream water is now a little polluted? Whoops, tee-hee! No crime, just two willing folks who came to an understanding, uh-huh.
The high cost of oil and low interest rates (and being completely and totally addicted to oil) are more compelling reasons why America went bonkers for Bakkenpuffs; the recent price dip should be a good test to determine just how resilient those producers are, and to see who is out swimming sans skivvies. Also, the population density is rather higher in Europe, which may nix or upsize the costs of any fracking, depending on where those hypothetical fields might be located (there was a recent 96% slaughter of the reserves projected for the Monterey Shale, fluffy optimism and bad data being hallmarks of this field), and the land usage rights would also need delving into. So whatever "new" methods there might be may not fly at all in the EU, assuming that there is profitable oil to be had—for example, how are those fields in Poland panning out? Hmm, hmm, "Fracking Setback in Poland Dims Hope for Less Russian Gas." Righty, then. Consider also the brutal decline rates of fracked wells; Rune Likvern has written several times on the "Red Queen Running" state required to keep the tight oil party flowing.
'The technology revolution that is "fracking"' is a curious claim (some would call it a lie), given that the technology is something like four to six decades old, and has been used to drill oil well before the recent high cost of oil (how about that global conventional crude oil peak back in 2005?) caused fracking to actually more than break even. Granted, "The high cost of oil revolution" would probably not sell copy, and the recent slide of prices will mostly put the hurt on one of the few bright spots (flaring pun included) in an otherwise stagnant or declining oil industry (the oil majors as recently as March were muttering something about the new "age of austerity" and "loosing their shirts" in natural gas).
Let's see, let's see...
02:15 AM cron job that did not run one Sunday, some important scheduled payments thingy, with other things then running expecting it had run, oh lord the manhours cleaning up and correcting after that disaster. Yep, servers were in US/Pacific, nice little time bombs left laying around for months until the pointless time wobble sets them off...good luck testing for that, hence the modern "just put it in UTC" to eliminate that class of problems. Alas, many servers still get placed in stupid timezones, or being so cannot be fixed (risk too high, bitrot, etc).
Then, at another company, the on-call got woken up each and every DST wiggle, because, you know, credit card latency was now 3600.00049996 seconds, or something, and hey! send pages! at who knows what hour; can't fix that software, legacy stack you see. On a positive note, the next version did run everything in UTC, thank goodness, but not after a few years of pointless, stupid, dumb pages.
Finally, there was the 2005 or so "energy savings" act, when they changed when the time wobble happened, and then everyone was spelunking around all the codebases, finding out how many custom date-time libraries had crawled into the systems (hint: lots) that all then needed updating. Maybe they found 'em all? Who knows, some reports might still be off by an hour, sometimes. Worst was the Exchange system, good fun post-change as they eventually threw up their hands and said "here's your new, empty calendar, good luck" and then 10,000+ folks were scavenging through old email invites to try to figure out who had been going to what meeting that was no longer there.
Probably seemed a good idea at the time. Isn't.
Incorrect, sir, I've RHEL6 systems with the traditional init that do sometimes randomly hang on NFS or tmp or lord knows what and need to be power-button-poked to get them to reboot, as requested. So, feature parity with systemd in that regard, if your claim is true. I have not yet moved anything to RHEL7, as there's been zero demand or need for it (Windows 8 on surface seems popular with the users; but hey there's always next year for Linux on the desktop, right?), and I think only earlier this week they fixed a local RHN satellite issue preventing access to necessary additional packages, plus there's that happy bundle of commercial CAD apps that would need to be got working on RHEL7, the typical sort of Augean shoveling the graduate student they probably aren't paying enough somehow isn't in a hurry to get neck deep into.
Startup time matters? Hmm. Let's see.
15:11 up 39 days, 13:13, 5 users, load averages: 1.09 1.11 1.41
well that's my laptop, can't remember what I was doing 39 days ago or why I'd care how long it takes to boot, I could go make tea, or read a book, or whatever. Really not at all important.
Servers? Well, they may spend anywhere from ~2-5 minutes doodling around in the BIOS, so shaving a few seconds or whatever from the system boot time means they take about ~2-5 minutes still doodling around in the BIOS. If you've done servers right, there will be redundancy, so who cares how long server A takes to reboot when servers X, P, Q, M, and R are chirping merrily away. Sorry, but I'm just not seeing the need for speed.
valen% uptime
3:22PM up 168 days, 14:53, 47 users, load averages: 0.58, 0.36, 0.34
Oh no! My slow OpenBSD server will reboot slowly when I upgrade to 5.6. Oh, the humanity!
The tired buggy whip trope is hilariously out-of-touch with the present situation. Switching from moseying horses about to wiggling a wheel, well, most anyone could and did make that change. Now, updating from mere wheel wiggling to data analytics or database administration or such, why that there probably requires a wee bit more spare time and training and learning and brainpower, and fewer will make that cut to those fewer jobs. I think some folks have been making noises about structural unemployment or the like, and the bell curve suggests that not everyone will via some magic whisk of a well-funded education wand meet those high skill jobs. What to do about such predicaments, well, the rich folks of Rhodes used to given direct cash payments to the poor, and there was the Roman "bread and circus" model ("The Economy of the Greek Cities", Léopold Migeotte), or there's always the social darwinism approach (mmm, cake!) and nothing particularly resolved yet from the "Discourses on Salt and Iron" days, but so these things go.
As for inefficient practices, I need only point to the lobster industry, whose hilariously inefficient capture process as compared to, say, the net-'em-all factory farming of fish (whose previously thought infinite stocks are somehow now collapsing) indicates that mere increased efficiency is not always the best of choices. Nor is forced inefficiency a good thing—I think Milton Friedman made some particularly boneheaded remarks in this area—but there are 7+ billion people who are usually happy to find and do meaningful work, even if it involves a shovel.
Selinux a must have? Hardly. Look at the security bulletins. Note the stupidly large number of exploits. Tally up how many would be prevented by selinux and where selinux would even be relevant to an attacker (who are your attackers, by the way?). Why not instead dedicate that time to fixing and auditing the code (see e.g. OpenBSD), and then only if there is spare time after all that work, only then consider the dubious benefit of a RBAC system. Consider two companies, 3-tier, sell stuff on the web, blah blah database blah blah email blah. One spends time setting up selinux, the other audits their code. An attacker desires customer data, and breaks into the selinux company via a code flaw (permitted by selinux) and reads the customer data from the database (permitted by selinux) and mails it off somewhere (permitted by selinux). The company that instead audited their code does not have the embarrassing flaw, because they found and fixed it, and were not hacked. Or what if the attacker, again via some local flaw, simply turns off selinux, and then does what they need to do? Again, time would have been better spent auditing and fixing the code, and not pouring manhours into the RBAC system.
Now let's say there is selinux AND the attacker cannot simply bypass selinux AND there is some customer data that selinux would prevent access to—say by not allowing a shell to run. This could be implemented in other ways (isolation of that customer data, so that even if they get a shell on some front-end machine, the critical data is simply not available there) that benefit the setup regardless of whether selinux is around. Oh but defense in depth, come the cries? Well, if you think you need a Maginot line off in the Pacific, or have some Potemkin policy that requires it, have fun!
IF I HAD A MINE SHAFT, I don't think I would just abandon it. There's got to be a better way. -- Jack Handley, The New Mexican, 1988.

Wedding Trivia:SHOES TO THE CARThis tradition originated in England during the Tudor period. At that time, guests would throw shoes at the bride and groom as they left in their carriage. It was considered good luck if their carriage was hit. Today, more often than not, it is beverage cans that are tied to a couples car instead of shoes. It should also be noted that the English consider it good luck if it rains on their wedding day!

Boundary Violations In Gay Relationships - We've talked about self-oriented boundary violations like straying from your diet or cheating on a test. Violations in your relationship with your partner can be particularly damaging, however, as they can diminish your trust in each other and cause significant conflicts and emotional distance that can tear down the foundation of commitment you've built.
Again, it's human to stray from our boundaries at times, but when it becomes pervasive and isn't talked about with your partner to try and remedy it, serious consequences can arise.
Here are some examples of common boundary violations in relationships to give you a better idea of what we're talking about:

If you've always fancied a Ford Kuga but find it that bit too small, good news: Ford is bringing another new SUV to Europe.
TopGear.com21 November 2013
Ford readies new 'Edge' SUV
Ford's X-Trail rival is coming to the UK. It can be parked by remote control. Be afraid
It's called the Edge, and is previewed by this concept, shown at the Los Angeles show this week. Yes, the US market has had the Edge since 2006, but this is an all-new car, designed with European tastes. Which is to say, 'tastes'.
So there's a thoroughly European (for which read 'not cheap, plasticky and horrible) cabin, and the promise of thoroughly European oily bits: though there's no word on what powers the Edge concept, we're told the production version will get - shock horror - diesel engines as well as petrol, and the option of a manual gearbox. Ford promises 'confident and engaging' handling, which we always prefer to 'cowardly and aloof' handling.
The concept packs plenty of shiny futuretech, including Ford's 'Fully Assisted Parking Aid', which allows drivers to slot their Edge into a parking spot BY REMOTE CONTROL. Oh yes. Get out the car, push a few buttons and the Edge will magically wiggle itself into a tight spot. There is no way this can end well.
The Edge will join the S-Max MPV in the lineup, giving Ford a small-to-big range of SUVs: the Fiesta-based Ecosport sitting below Kuga, with S-Max and Edge above. All these SUVs, of course, will be available in hot 'ST' and 'RS' spec*.
*Quite possibly not true

Curator: Bao DongOpening: 3:00pm-6:00pm, 27 Jan.2015 (Tuesday)Duration: Jan 27th, 2015 쭯 Mar 15th, 2015Address: PIFO GalleryB-11,798 Art Zone, No.2 Jiuxianqiao Rd, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China
Pifo Gallery is delighted to announce the opening of Liang Shuo: The Grand Topology on 3:00pm, 27th January. This is the first solo exhibition to cooperate with artist. The exhibition will end on 15th March 2015. In this exhibition, Liang Shuo builds a topological space in the gallery. The audience enters the gallery and thus gets into a topological space.The theme "Tuo Pu Ou Le Ju" is a trick,a figure of speech that stresses the rhetoric itself. The fond taste for the excessive and the affected, boasts an undisguised affection for kitsch. An irony somehow arises from this overtness. This is perhaps what Liang means by the aesthetics of "Zha".However, to translate "topology" to "Tuo Pu Ou Le Ju" is not without a sound reason. Xu Guangqi translated "Geo" to "Ji he" according to the Shanghainese pronunciation of "Geo". Xu Guangqi's translation is both phonetic and sematic. So is Liang's translation of "topology". To create the impression of the localized kitsch, Liang reinterprets the imported word "Topology" by the concept "Zha". Hence, the Chinese name "Tuo Pu Ou Le Ju" is reminiscent of a piece of property embellished with counterfeit roman columns. Certainly, Liang's work does not remain on the level of aesthetic or cultural taste. What fascinates him more is the working mechanism: to create possibilities under certain conditions. The conditions include specific spaces, concrete materials, limited budget or time etc. The possibilities offered by these conditions are unknown until they are activated by Liang's ideas and craft.The newly renovated exhibition space provides a solid starting point for Liang Shuo. The spatial structure and the form of exhibiting (which essentially dissolves the traditional concept of exhibiting) all derive from the characteristics of the gallery space. Liang aims to create the continuity of space and the reflexivity of viewing That is to say, the form of exhibiting becomes the exhibit, while the experience of the viewers becomes the view. Continuity is a typical topological issue. Going beyond the continuity of surface and space, Liang moves towards the continuity of artistic system. By representing the full spectrum of the artistic production, Liang embraces the continuity of artistic system.Confined by limited time and budget, Liang chooses light construction materials and soft decoration papers to erect his topological space. More specifically, Liang pieces these irregular panels together to a three dimensional structure. He spreads the rectangular panels on the ground and throws sticks randomly from above. The irregular forms of these panels, therefore, are determined by the lines created when the sticks land on the panels. With this working mechanism, Liang obtains the real freedom, as freedom is not the romanticised hollow concept of "freedom without constraints". The real freedom can only be obtained under restrict controls. To respect and follow the intrinsic qualities of things, to embrace the contingency, and even to create contingency by setting the rules of the game, Liang presents us here the crystallization of the unpredictable. Actually, in Liang's work, between taste and mechanism, in other words, between self and freedom, repulsion grows. Yet it is exactly this repulsion that fuels the two.

Zack Snyder is, some may say wisely, directing his new "Superman" film under the faux assumption that it's the first Man of Steel movie. Ever.
Snyder, who has cast Henry Cavill to play his last son of Krypton (as opposed to Marlon Brando and Susannah York's), tells The Los Angeles Times that he'll respect what Richard Donner, Richard Lester, Sidney J.Furie and Bryan Singer have done (in other words, he'll likely include the 'curl' and not bother with Lex Luthor's hairpiece) but wants to distance his film from the previous ones.
"Respect the canon but don't be a slave to the movies", said Snyder.
"Literally, the one thing that everyone can start to think about is that we're making a movie that finally goes with the approach that there's been no other Superman movies," Snyder said. "If you look at 'Batman Begins,' there's that structure, there's the canon that we know about and respect but on other hand there's this approach that pre-supposes that there haven't been any other movies. In every aspect of design and of story, the whole thing is very much from that perspective of respect the canon but don't be a slave to the movies."
Snyder suggests that we'll recognize his Superman but he may be mixing up other elements.
"Superman is the one constant in the universe," Snyder said. "You know that if you do Superman right — or at least if you do him with respect — you know you end up with something great…. [but] in some ways [beyond] that is virgin territory. No one knows what that is. In some ways Superman is the most recognizable superhero on the planet but also the most unknown. Just what he can be? People have preconceived ideas about him but probably all of them are wrong."
The "Watchmen" director couldn't speak about Supes' suit this time around, "I can't say — although I appreciate the question. I'd love to talk about it. We're going to have to show it before we shoot, probably a while before that because [otherwise] someone will be on the set and get a picture of it."
The 2012 release stars the aforementioned Cavill and Diane Lane. The roles of General Zod, Ursa, Jonathan Kent and Lois Lane remain uncast (though Kevin Costner is said to be the frontrunner for the Kent role).

Fantastic memories of Tshukudu LodgePosted Mar 3, 2015
Pros: Everything
We stayed at the Lodge in December 2014 for 2 nights. What an amazing experience. The game drives were fantastic. Our guide Shawn was very good and we were lucky enough to see Lions , Elephants, Giraffe, Leopards and Jackals. I cant recommend the game drives enough. The rooms were lovely and the service was good. Loved that all the drinks in the mini bar are free. Highly recommend Tshukudu and will treasure our memories from our time there.

Traumurlaub in der WildnessPosted May 9, 2014
Wir haben einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt erleben können. Eine private schon fast familiäre Atmosphäre in der Tshukudu Lodge. Sehr schöne Zimmer mit persönlichem Komfort und einem sehr aufmerksamen Personal. Das Essen ist sehr gut und es wird auch auf individuelle Wünsche eingegangen. Unsere Pirschfahrten waren toll. Jedoch kann es auch sein, dass man nicht soviel Tiere sehen kann. Joy unsere Begleiterin war im ständigen Austausch mit anderen Fahrern, so dass wir viel sehen konnten; unbeschreiblich die Erlebnisse!

Geweldig!Posted Feb 27, 2014
Voor rust en wilde dieren spotten. Prachtige locatie met geweldig uitzicht, zeer vriendelijk personeel en prima eten. Geen wifi of telefoon, dus even helemaal 'uit de lucht', dat is ook wel eens lekker. Wel iedere keer de 132 trsptreden naar de entree lopen, maar prima te doen.

Great African Safari ExperiencePosted Oct 24, 2013
Pros: Great view, excellent service, intimate
Cons: Nothing
We visited the lodge in early October with our 21-year-old son. The lodge sits on a hill overlooking a valley and a waterhole. The atmosphere is luxuriously wild and intimate. There are six guest cottages, a nice veranda, a fire pit area and a swimming pool. The view is spectacular. We saw 50 to 80 wild animals in the valley below the lodge at any given time. Impala, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, kudu, chimpanzee and others were seen. The routine at the lodge is to get up at dawn have a cup of coffee and then go on a game drive. Ralf did a fantastic job of showing us all kinds of animals on the game drives. We saw lions, rhinos, chimpanzee, giraffe, crocodile, hippos, birds, impala, kudu, and many more. They serve you a great breakfast after the morning drive. The mid day is free for reading swimming or lounging. The evening game drive is cool because you get to see lots of animals after dark. The food, drink and hospitality at the lodge is first rate. If I go back, I plan to arrive in time for the evening game drive, probably spend two nights and might even bring a large party to rent the whole place. There is no where to exercise except going up and down the stairs. Overall a spectacular place that is highly recommended.

Awesome Safari LodgePosted Oct 23, 2013 on Hotels.com
Our room was clean , comfortable and attractive. view from our balcony was spectacular! Every staff member was highly professional and made us feel safe while so near to lions, rhinos, hippos and elephants. the food was quite delicious and plentiful. Staff was informative, friendly and always eager to help. I hated to leave and will always have fond memories of Tshukudu Lodge.

Tranquil and Friendly Stay in PilanesbergPosted Aug 6, 2013
Pros: The isolated location and fantastic view over a water hole.
Location: Located in the center of Pilanesberg. Sun City is near by but nothing in the area beats Tshukudu's game drives and tranquil rest.
Our stay at Tshukudu was quiet, restful, friendly, and informative. The staff is well established, knowing both Pilanesberg and the lodge well. Their knowledge and investment into Pilanesberg provided us with a neat insight. The enjoyable food was prepared by a chef that loves what he does.
