Morocco: The past is a long dream
Ancient and modern worlds meet at Volubilis, where Europeans are called 'Romans'. But does this area really owe its heritage to classical civilisation?
It is dangerous to linger at Volubilis beyond late afternoon. Dusk brushes the dry stones with the disturbing, magical glow of Morocco, and leads to a lifelong addiction. I can no longer guess at the number of times I have wandered through these ruins. Yet I still vividly remember my first night here, 23 years ago, after visiting the site. My sleep was broken by dogs patrolling the flat roofs of neighbouring village houses, their echoing barks unleashing dreams initiate by the vivid mosaics of Volubilis's House of Venus.
It is dangerous to linger at Volubilis beyond late afternoon. Dusk brushes the dry stones with the disturbing, magical glow of Morocco, and leads to a lifelong addiction. I can no longer guess at the number of times I have wandered through these ruins. Yet I still vividly remember my first night here, 23 years ago, after visiting the site. My sleep was broken by dogs patrolling the flat roofs of neighbouring village houses, their echoing barks unleashing dreams initiate by the vivid mosaics of Volubilis's House of Venus.
The ruins of this palatial town house, tucked a discreet block away from the main street, are dominated by an opulent courtyard, from which a corridor leads to two bedrooms. The floors of these rooms are alive with depictions of rippling naked flesh destined to haunt the imagination of the adolescent that I was. In one, the beautiful youth Hylas, boyfriend of Hercules, fights off the advances of the two nymphs who will later drag him down to the depths of the lake to serve as their sex slave. In the next room, Actaeon sprouts horns at the moment he betrays his chaste friendship with the virgin goddess Artemis, by gazing on her naked form as she bathes.
Both mosaics are concerned with the same theme - the unspoken boundary separating friendship from erotic desire - and dwell lovingly on the punishment that follows any breach. It is an enduring theme, as furiously relevant now as it was in the 2nd century AD.
The assimilation between ancient and modern is made even easier by the surrounding landscape. The hills that rise immediately to the east of Volubilis are an Arcadian dream, a Claudian landscape of limestone escarpments, pine woods, stone-built villages and ancient olive groves. In such a land, the world of myth becomes a vivid possibility. To what extent, I only found out years later, when I explored the foothills, known locally as Jebel Zerhoun. An hour's walk from Volubilis, I found an outdoor bath worthy of Artemis and her peeping Tom, Actaeon. It lies at the bottom of a steep valley north-east of Moulay Idriss. Here, a subterranean hot-water spring still bubbles into an intact circle of carved Roman stone.
It was in use, not by a goddess, but by an elderly ploughman, calming his arthritis in its odoriferous and muddy waters. He had good reason to be surprised by the sudden arrival of a Roumi (a Roman, as all Europeans are still known in Arabic-speaking Morocco), but showed none of the petulance of a deity. Instead, with impeccable Moroccan manners, he politely vacated the waters and offered me sole use of the bath.
On another Jebel Zerhoun hillside, I later came across a shadow of the vengeful virgin goddess, in the local form of Aisha Qadisha. This powerful and malevolent spirit is feared by men throughout Morocco. She appears as a slim, elegant and veiled figure in the evening light, luring men to follow her with the seductive turn of her body and her flirtatious glances. She leads them away from the busy streets to a quiet place of assignation, and only those who spot the imprint of her cloven hooves can make their escape. Those who succumb to her first embrace have secured their doom.
Here she is associated with a dank natural grotto whose entrance is all but obscured by the spreading branches of an ancient fig tree. Even at noon it was chilling. Just a few burnt-out candles and ragged scraps of cloth tied to the tree mark it out as a place of devotion. Whether the women venerate the site in order to banish Aisha Qadisha from these hills, or to call down her vengeance on abusive men, I would not contemplate returning at dusk.
On that first visit to Volubilis, I recall staring up at the ruins of the Capitoline temple, mounting the steps of the sanctuary and then looking east as the setting sun caught the pilgrimage town of Moulay Idriss in its glow. The view is one of the most celebrated in North Africa.
It seems to be designed as a symbolic template of the passage of history, with the classical columns of the temple neatly framing the distant sanctuary that contains the tomb of the great grandson of the Prophet Mohamed. At the time, no view could have been more picturesque and satisfyingly didactic. For here stand the ruins of the open, ordered and familiar world of classical civilisation, while like a fortress on the hill crouches its successor, Islam.
In the following decades, I have unwittingly destroyed this satisfyingly simple image. The first idea to fall was that of Rome as the primal creator. Volubilis, despite the elegant drapery of its Roman-era baths, arches, basilica and forum, is a city that existed as a trading and government centre centuries before the first Roman arrived. Excavations have revealed a Punic-influenced Berber city with its own magistrates, temples, written script and political strategy.
The second, more obstinate, image to crumble was that of the romantic ruins of Rome standing as a mute sentinel through the centuries. Like many travellers, I had no idea how ruthless (and creative) the early French excavators were. They simply cleared away all the medieval layers of the city to rebuild the principal Roman monuments.
In particular, that much-vaunted view from the Capitoline temple turns out to be as much a work of imagination as of scholarship. The excavators were inspired by a mystique which saw the 19th- and 20th-century colonists as the true heirs of a revived Roman Empire. It was, of course, erroneous thinking. In the process they wiped out, either deliberately or accidentally, most of the evidence of continuity between the classical and the Islamic world.
Fortunately, some areas were overlooked and an intriguing picture emerges of the city surviving after the fall of Roman power. It remained a centre for trade, sheltering pockets of Christian and Jewish belief, and governed by a council of chiefs. Far from being swept aside by a new, Islamic, monarchy, it was this multi-cultural city which, in 788, first welcomed Moulay Idriss into its midst.
And this Moulay Idriss arrived, not as the West would imagine him, at the head of a swirling band of Arab cavalry, but as a penniless refugee. He had only his scholarship, piety and noble blood with which to offset the price on his head fixed by the caliph at Baghdad.
With each new revelation of complexity, my love affair with the ruins has grown. I stroll past the empty shops and broken arcades that line Avenue Decumanus between the Arch of Caracalla and the Tangier Gate, filling the emptiness with the contemporary animation of the souks in Fez and Marrakesh. Only now, instead of just watching out for the shadows of the Romans, I also keep a look out for Phoenicians, Hebrews, Arabs, early Christians and proud Berber chieftains, too.

to ask you to share your experiences of a Wendy
(86 Posts)Reading other threads about relationships with friends has got me thinking about women in my life who have made deliberate and calculated efforts to exclude me from having a relationship with one of my close friends.
She's a bit odd tbh. What grown woman turns up at another person's house unannounced with a bottle of wine and an over night bag for a "GIRLY SLEEPOVER" and basically takes over the house and has a jealous rage about friend texting any one else when she's with her. Making face book status about how much they love each other etc. I let them get on with it now but when it first happened I was really upset
I'm not sure what a Wendy is.
But if someone turned up unannounced and my house and was all "girly sleepover" I'd tell them to jog on.
Wendy? Is that like Burger King
I have a friend who isn't a Wendy but she is a bit possessive. We have recently had a couple of very traumatic life events and she was put out that she wasn't the first person I called when they happened.
I had a friend called Wendy when I was at school.
No to unannounced sleepovers here too.
londonrach that reminded me of Chandler on Friends "It was a Wendy's!"
Oh god I had one briefly.....moved 250 miles away when dh was in forces. Was given number of another forces wife whilst they were away on tour. Very quickly she became very possessive and would want to meet up all the time. She looked at houses on her road we could move into (id known her weeks ) when I talked about best friends from home she would get insanely jealous ! It was creepy. When I couldn't meet her one weekend as I was visiting home, she rang me and hurled a huge amount of abuse about what a shit friend I was, id let het down etc etc. . ...it all completely freaked me out tbh but she had had a disastrous childhood and seemed to push people away to see if theyd stick around. I didnt.
Tru,...which friends as I thought I knew all of them and seems I need to revisit them. ( really pleased tru mentioned this as I now have excuse.....)
Its the one when he has to give his sperm sample and is dreading doing it. And Janice says "what, u can do it in a Taco Bell but not in a doctors office?!" and he says "it was a Wendy's!"
I'm actually reading that in their voices as I write it haha
Btw u never need an excuse to watch Friends! I love it!
and sorry Only for derailing the thread
What's a Wendy?
What are you upset about? Sorry...it's not quite clear. Your friend has picked up an overbearing, jealous friend? Is that it?
I remember now tru but have forgotten think I have to rewatch every episode. Can I blame you tru? Hubby won't like. Op can you explain Wendy it us just a Burger King.
Of course, blame away!
Indeed all episodes must be watched purely for research purposes only of course
Well my hubby actually bought me th one with all ten seasons box set as an Xmas prezzie so he can't really complain when i put it on yet he does enjoy them too just not to the obsessed extent that i do!!
I think a Wendy is someone you befriend, but then they take over your friendship group, manage to manipulate your old friend into excluding you and you are then left with no mates and have to move on and make new friends......
Glad you got a sensible hubby tru.... Which one your fav? Sorry op high hacking your post. I'm lucky I've never know a Wendy but do know there are burger bars called it. Hampton court are you near Hampton court in which case hi neighbour. (Waves).
hampton spot on.
There is a lot of disbelief surrounding this on mn. I think a lot of people assume that the person who is 'wendied' is actually the problematic one who is in denial...and perhaps in some cases that's true, but unless you've had this horrible thing happen to you, it's difficult to understand.
I got royally wendied years ago. Couldn't believe what was happening!
Another Friends fanatic here
Not near Hampton Court sorry, it's a Stately Homes name.
Am waving back though!!!
I know plenty of women like this who I've watched do it to others. They don't tend to pick me for some reason touch wood.
I don't think I have ever been wendied.
Might be because I haven't got any friends.
Tbh if something like that had happened to my younger self I would have been devastated but, as I'm an old bugger now, I'd think of it as a blessed relief that I found out my 'friends' were a shallow bunch of sheep.
Ooh I couldn't pick just one but
The one with the cheap wedding dress
The one the stain "I'm leaning, this is where I lean!"
The one where Joey learns French "oh de foof"
And absolutely love the one where Joey is building the entertainment unit and Chandler falls over half of his bedroom door haha and when Joey's drilling the wall and chandler comes out and he says "oh sorry did i get u?" "No u didn't get me, u get me u kill me!"
too funny, I'm actually laughing my head off now!
That's to name a few, how about u?heads upstairs to fetch the boxset
I've been spectacularly Wendied recently, it's upset me quite a lot, but I'm waiting for the rest of the group to realise what happened.
I've found more friends since but i think my particular Wendy is trying to spread discord around other people i talk to as well, fuck knows what I've done to piss her off, but its worse than school!!! My mum saw her the othe day and said she had a spiteful looking face. perhaps thats it, watch out for spiteful looking women
And just so i am vaguely contributing to the actual point of this thread i have not yet been wendied, what a shitty thing to do to someone but as youthecat says probably best u find out who your true friends arr
True friends are I'm not a pirate honestly

Today's Talk On Convention Anti-Harassment Policies At FtBCon
As I announced previously, today I am giving an talk on Google Hangouts on convention anti-harassment policies and how they fit into American anti-harassment law. Some related links:
Here's the link to where the conference will be.
Here's a short quiz in preparation for the talk.
Here's the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's publications on discrimination issues.
I've written before about how complaints about harassment provoke disproportionate outrage and further harassment; those posts are here and here.

I think it is fairly obvious that when somebody prays it is rather like asking somebody else a question. To get an answer they have to listen and put aside their own ideas. So we can presume that in asking for an interpretation, Joseph quietens his own personality and thoughts, and listens for an answer.
Obviously there is a problem here for many people because they cannot believe there can be a spontaneous answer from God or other than from a person's own imagination. The story of Joseph interpreting the dream of Pharaoh suggests that Joseph did not know through his own thinking process what Pharaoh's dream meant, but sought help from God. Whether we believe in God as described as a sort of father figure or not doesn't matter. We are looking at a piece of anthropological information couched in the language of the times.
The core information is that a person can gain information, help or power from a source other than their conscious thinking and knowledge. Experiments with hypnotism suggest that we are all experts on understanding dreams, but not with our conscious mind. Only when we are in a semi sleep state or a passive open state of being such as prayer or meditation might be, can we access this inner source of insight, information and power.

chicken enchilada soup This Blog Linked From Here This Blog Linked From Here . Friday, September 30, 2011 Chicken Enchilada Soup Chicken Enchilada Soup Serves 8-10. It's soup season, my friends. I made this on the stovetop and then transferred to the crock pot for continued simmering and for easy serving with guests. It was great! Source: Homemade by Holman blog 3 cups chicken stock 2 skinless, chicken breasts (I used 1.3 lbs total between the two) 2 tsp ground cumin 2 tsp ancho chili powder 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 1 28 oz can diced tomatoes 4-6 jalapeno peppers, minced 1 green bell pepper, diced 1 large onion, diced 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 15 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained 2 cups frozen corn 1/2 cup tomato paste 8 oz cotija cheese, crumbled 8 oz pepperjack cheese, divided 1 cup cilantro, chopped Tortilla chips In a large Dutch oven or stockpot, add chicken stock and heat over medium heat. Add chicken breasts, cumin, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Simmer about 20-25 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside. Add tomatoes, jalapenos, bell pepper, onion, and garlic to the pot. Simmer about 30 minutes, covered until tomatoes have begun to break down. Add black beans, corn, and tomato paste and stir to incorporate. Add cotija cheese and half of the pepperjack cheese and stir to melt. Return chicken to soup and cook about 20 more minutes until desired consistency. If soup isn't as thick as desired, you can add strips of flour tortillas. They will dissolve into the soup to thicken the broth. Add cilantro, reserving some to top individual bowls if desired. Ladle into serving bowls and top with crushed tortilla chips, reserved pepperjack cheese and cilantro if desired.

David Cameron rocked by surge in Ukip support, exclusive poll reveals
David Cameron was dealt a bitter new blow today by an exclusive poll revealing that support for Ukip hit record levels during the Maria Miller expenses scandal.
As the Prime Minister officially launched the Conservatives' European elections campaign, Ipsos MORI disclosed that backing for Nigel Farage's anti-EU party has surged to 15 per cent — its joint highest rating yet.
Polling was carried out from Saturday to Monday while Mr Cameron was loyally defending his then Culture Secretary.
The results will be seen by many Tories as confirmation Ukip was helped by the scandal. The survey also shed possible new light on why Chancellor George Osborne reportedly intervened to force yesterday's resignation by Mrs Miller.
It found that he delivered the most popular Tory Budget for a generation and now enjoys the highest satisfaction rating of any Tory Chancellor since 1980 — but these personal triumphs are not being translated into higher Conservative popularity.
Instead, the Tories are down a point since March to 31 per cent — six points behind Labour, who are up two points to 37 per cent.
Other key findings in the exclusive poll revealed:
- Nick Clegg's decision to challenge Mr Farage to two live debates backfired. The Liberal Democrats have plunged four points since last month's survey to nine per cent, while Ukip has jumped four points. Mr Farage's personal rating is up from 31 to 40 per cent, highest of the four main leaders.
- Eight in 10 people share Ed Miliband's view there is a "cost of living crisis" in Britain, suggesting critics are wrong to think his campaign has run out of steam.
- David Cameron maintains his lead as the most capable Prime Minister, beating Mr Miliband by 34 to 20 per cent.
- The PM is also seen as the most "out of touch" of the four leaders.
Tory MPs will be most agonised by the contrast between Mr Osborne's successes and the party's overall score. More than four in 10 people polled think the Budget was good for them and nearly half say it was good for the UK. This is the best personal score for a Tory since Nigel Lawson in 1987 paved the way for Margaret Thatcher's third election victory.
Nearly half the public are satisfied with Mr Osborne as Chancellor.
Gideon Skinner, head of political research at Ipsos MORI, said: "George Osborne's Budget has gone down well with the public. But it hasn't yet had the impact they might have hoped, as its shine for the Conservatives has been rubbed off by the Maria Miller scandal and Ukip's rise."
A senior Lib-Dem minister shrugged off the evidence that the Clegg-Farage debate backfired, saying: "We achieved what we set out to do, which was to show we are the only party prepared to fight to defend our EU membership."
Launching the Tory Euro-elections campaign, Mr Cameron said the Tories were the only party making "real change in Europe that works for you". He declared: "Three words sum up everything we are about in Europe: Britain's National Interest."

Syrian Refugees in Winter By Yara Bayoumy A Syrian refugee girl walks barefoot in a refugee camp named "Container City†on the Turkish-Syrian border in Oncupinar, Kilis province, southern Turkey December 24, 2012. REUTERS/Umit Bektas BAB AL-SALAMEH, Syria (Reuters) – Huddled inside thin plastic tents in a makeshift camp after fleeing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's bombs thousands of refugees say they face a new enemy. "The cold is killing us,†many of them say. Having survived a conflict in which more than 40,000 people are estimated to have been killed, refugees at the Bab al-Salameh camp on the Syrian-Turkish border say the winter is now a bigger threat to them than the violence engulfing their country. "The situation here is even worse than being at home,†said Waad Orfali, a 27-year-old woman, dressed in a pink headscarf, velvet pink gown and slippers, as rain pounded the camp. "At least in the village there was a doctor,†said Orfali, who escaped from the northern village of Marea about two weeks ago after snipers and air strikes forced her and her family to relocate to the relative safety of the camp. The flimsy tents scattered across the encampment offer scant relief to the thousands of men, women and children facing freezing weather and constant rain, and colder conditions are still to come. Earlier this month, the United Nations refugee agency said more than half a million Syrian refugees are registered or waiting in other Middle Eastern countries, with about 3,000 new people seeking refugee status and assistance daily. "I'm three months pregnant and I've been bleeding,†said Orfali, who suffered from mouth sores. She said her husband suffered from kidney stones, but that neither had been able to receive medical care at the camp. "At home there's no water or electricity and it's the same thing here,†another woman chimed. Tents reeked of damp as the rain seeped through, soaking blankets, clothes and rugs, and with no electricity in the camp, children, many wearing a single layer of clothing and slippers with no socks, shivered in the cold. Mothers complained they received little food. By the afternoon, they said breakfast had not even been distributed. With no running water, lavatories near the mosque stank of rubbish and sewage. "Tell them Syria's people are full of lice,†said Um Ali, a mother of 12, said. She carried her ID papers in plastic to protect them from the rain in the hope that she could use them to get supplies from the camp authorities for her children. WE JUST WANT THE SLAUGHTER TO STOP Some refugees here are trying to scrape together a living amid the misery. They set up stands to sell cigarettes, and children zigzag through the tents hawking sweets and chocolate. IHH, a Turkish relief group, is running the camp. Shawkat Gukman, the IHH coordinator at Bab al-Salameh, said the camp housed about 870 tents and 6,000 people with about 200 people streaming through each day. Gukman said IHH had not been entirely in charge of running the camp until recently. He said some 5,000 pairs of children's shoes had been given out. Challenging conditions like a lack of water and electricity made food preparation and distribution particularly challenging, Gukman said. "The crisis may last for years. It's not clear but the war could last for a longer time.†As the war continues, more Syrians are expected to flee. The latest estimates indicate that the total number of Syrians who have fled during the conflict has already surpassed the 700,000 refugees that the UNHCR forecast by year-end, though more than 200,000 of them have not registered formally. Another 2.5 million or more are believed to be displaced inside Syria. Um Ahmed, a mother of five girls and two boys, said she moved to the Bab al-Salameh camp four months ago from the Hanano district of Aleppo. "When we first came, we were sleeping under the tires of trucks. The sun burned us,†she told Reuters in her three-by-four meter tent, where she had lit a coal fire and was grilling onions she said would help fight her children's infections. Dressed in a purple sweater and red wool skirt, Um Ahmed said she had been a supporter of Assad at the beginning of the conflict, now in its 21st month. "He said there wouldn't be a drop of blood, and now there's a river of blood. So now I'm the most opposed to Assad after what I've seen with my eyes,†she said. Like many other refugees thrust into dire conditions, Um Ahmed has tried to keep some semblance of a home in her tent. In a vain effort to keep the tent dry, a mop is perched against the tent's corner, and there is a red basin to bathe in. One side of the tent is decorated with the Syrian rebels' flag. Complaining of chaotic scenes when the camp authorities distribute supplies, she said: "We have too much pride and dignity,†to push through queues. "We don't want money, food or water,†she said. "We just want the slaughter to stop. We dream of going back home.†(Editing by Andrew Osborn) 15-1 December 27, 2012 by TMO 0 comments 198 viewson *The Muslim Observer, 15-1, International, Volume 15 Share this post Facebook Twitter Google plus Pinterest Linkedin Mail this article Print this article Next: State Department Seeks Money, Reforms After Benghazi Previous: Wardah Athar Receives Mitchell Scholarship

Wraptastic: A Symptom Of Something Gone Horribly Wrong In American Society
Ever heard of Wraptastic?
The basic idea behind this product is that for $25 ($11 for the product and $14 for the shipping and handling), you get a product that is marginally better at dealing with plastic wrap and tin foil than the packaging those products come with.
Here's the thing: Even for someone who's not very coordinated, handling tin foil and plastic wrap is about a 1 out of 10 on the difficulty scale. Moreover, it's not like the average person spends half his day piddling around with tin foil and plastic wrap. The average person might do it 2-3 times a week — if that — and even most of the frequent users probably top out at doing it a couple of times a day when they pack their kid's lunch.
In other words, this a product that fixes a practically non-existent problem for $25. It reminds me of those old episodes of the Jetsons where George came home from work and complained that he had to push a button 8 times that day instead of 7.
While I'm a capitalist and I have no moral problem with people making or spending money on things they want, something like this makes you wonder how far over the falls we've gone into rampant consumerism when hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars could change hands because of a product like this.

So much for drawing a line under the Government's shambolic recent performance. In an apparently unscripted addition to Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday, David Cameron told MPs that the Government is to use the law to force energy companies to give their customers the best possible tariff.
The proposal would be startling enough by itself, signalling a sudden, radical intervention in of one of Britain's more complex industries. But it was also news to both the energy companies and, it appeared, to the Department for Energy and Climate Change. Was the Prime Minister boldly seizing the initiative on an issue close to voters' hearts, or did he stumble – detail-lite – into a grave policy blunder? Disquietingly, it would seem to be the latter.
In the immediate aftermath of Mr Cameron's bombshell, DECC officials made general noises about the Government helping customers find the best deal, but stopped conspicuously short of confirming that companies would be forced to transfer them automatically. The Tory energy minister summoned to answer questions in the Commons did little better. For all his flamboyant style, John Hayes could only bluster about "a number of options" being considered. Hardly a clarification. Meanwhile, the Liberal Democrat Secretary of State dodged the issue altogether. And even the Prime Minister's own attempt at clarification – on the way into a European summit – only reaffirmed a general commitment to ensure consumers access to the lowest tariffs.
A sorry state of affairs, indeed. It is easy enough to understand how the situation came about. Squeezed between public outrage at last week's sharp rise in energy bills, and the expectation of more tough talk on the subject from the Opposition, Mr Cameron grabbed the opportunity to appear both caring and decisive. Except that his impromptu announcement has confused consumers, caused havoc in the industry, and added to the worrying impression that his grip on policy is not all it might be.
Where does all this leave consumers? In all likelihood, no better off than before. The most probable explanation for the debacle is that Mr Cameron was over-egging an existing plan – in place since April – to force companies to give customers details of the best tariffs available to them (a proposal which is, indeed, to be included in the Energy Bill due next month).
Nor is the Prime Minister's more far-reaching proposal either as simple or as attractive as it sounds. First, it would damage competition. With such a chunk of bills at the mercy of global commodity prices, the creation of multiple tariffs – which vary according to payment methods, usage patterns, and the like – is central to rivalry between suppliers. Heavy-handed Government intervention would simply tilt the market towards a single price band, leaving customers even less choice.
Second, even if it were desirable, such a plan would be nigh-impossible to put into practice, given that it would require suppliers to have far more information about each customer than is currently available to them. Again, the result would be fewer tariffs. Third, even if it were possible, such a plan would have the opposite result to Mr Cameron's stated aim of cutting consumers' costs. In fact, by putting an end to the pricier packages, it might be expected to raise the average bill.
Britain's energy market most certainly needs attention. Pricing is too complex and too opaque, adding to consumers' considerable mistrust; switching between suppliers is too difficult and unrewarding. But simplistic broadsides solve nothing. By adding to the confusion, the Prime Minister has made matters worse.

FPV's special-edition commemorates not the '60s Le Mans legend but 40 years of the GT nameplate in Australia. And it's tuned for track-day enthusiasts, too, writes JEZ SPINKS.
Ford Performance Vehicles will sell just 200 of a special Falcon GT that marks the nameplate's 40th anniversary in Australia, but the sportier chassis underneath will be made available to many more buyers.
The Falcon GT 40th Anniversay model, unveiled at the Melbourne motor show, follows four decades after the launch of the 1967 XR Falcon GT. But it's more than just a limited-edition paintjob of black with gold stripes (reversing the original's paintwork), because the GT 40th incorporates a new R-Spec handling package.
The R-Spec set-up has been developed by Delphi, suppliers of the GT's regular dampers, after a request by FPV's joint owners, Prodrive, which is renowned for its tuning expertise in the world of motorsport - including the running of the Subaru World Rally Championship team.
The enhanced chassis package aims to improve the GT's racetrack performance for Ford enthusiasts without wearing tyres rapidly.
R-Spec is the result of work on the GT's springs and dampers to develop what it calls an advanced level of suspension tune. Prodrive claims the results are a performance Falcon that still retains a good ride/handling balance while delivering sharper turn-in response and better stability under acceleration.
And if you choose a six-speed auto over the six-speed manual, a higher-capacity oil cooler is claimed to prevent the automatic transmission overheating from extreme use.
"We're constantly monitoring the feedback of existing and potential FPV customers and a track pack version has been high on customer wish lists since the launch of the first FPV GT in 2003," says Bryan Mears, the managing director of Prodrive Asia-Pacific, which co-owns FPV with Ford Australia.
"Australia has a rich history of vehicle owners wanting to explore the potential of their cars in the safety of a race track."
In addition to the distinctive black-and-gold paintwork, which doffs its cap to 1978's XC Falcon Cobra Hardtop, the limited-edition GT includes '40th Anniversay' decals above the sills, leather/suede sports seats, special GT-P 19-inch alloys with gloss black accents, and floor mats stitched with a "40th Anniversay" logo.
The GT 40th Anniversary goes on sale in April, priced at $65,110 - a $2,900 premium over the regular GT.

Wolfgang Puck Disses Starbucks

CultureMap Houston has a lengthy piece about Wolfgang Puck's new line of bottled iced coffees, but we're more interested in his take on coffee king Starbucks (and his "That's what she said" joke in the lede).
Apparently, the renowned chef hates Starbucks, saying the coffee company has essentially brainwashed consumers.
"They created a taste in the memory for people, which is interesting, so that people really think it's good coffee," he told CultureMap. "But it's terrible coffee! Like when I fly on United Airlines they say, 'We proudly serve Starbucks coffee.' I said they should say, 'We are embarrassed to serve Starbucks coffee.'"
Of course this opinion has nothing to do with Puck's ready-to-drink iced coffees, which come in three flavors that would make Ferran Adrià cry: mocha, créme caramel, and café au lait.
"It took us about a year and a half to get the flavors right," Puck said, and also admits that he's particular about his coffee. "I'm very peculiar about it, I like it a certain way, and everyone isn't going to like it the way I like it," he said. We'll see how his refined taste fares against the most popular coffee chain in the States.

The 8 Minute Abs workout is an exercise routine created by a company called Fitness Blender. The exercises target the abdominal area and help people accelerate their weight loss and achieve more toned stomach muscles.

The company recommends doing a variety of stomach-targeting exercises, as well as some form of cardiovascular workouts in order to achieve maximum weight loss and toning. They also suggest maintaining a healthy, clean diet. The abdominal exercises in the 8 Minute Abs program include leg raises, standing toe touches and variations on traditional stomach crunches.
