by Kristen Schaub Achieving great sound with your television is just a single speaker away with Klipsch's Gallery G-42 Soundbar. Well, it's really three speakers in one thanks to separate, dedicated drivers for the right, left, and center channels. It means you'll hear the kind of detail and depth that you've been craving from your TV shows, movies, and video games. And all from a single speaker that matches the ultra-slim design of the latest flat-panel TVs. You can also combine the G-42 with any of Klipsch's other Gallery speakers to get a stylish on-wall surround sound system or low-impact whole-house audio system. Three speakers in one cabinet The G-42 uses three of Klipsch's patented Tractrix® horn-loaded tweeters, one each for the left, right, and center channels. This special tweeter design helps to increase the speaker's high-frequency output, producing more lifelike sound. You'll also hear a larger soundstage with excellent imaging that allows you to pinpoint the direction of gunfire or the sound cheering crowds from off-screen. Each tweeter is paired with a light, stiff woofer (two woofers for the center channel) to ensure you hear seamlessly blended mids and balanced bass with each channel. The driver grouping for each channel is housed in a separate acoustic chamber, each with its own port to ensure the best overall sound, with minimal interference between the channels. You'll get the benefit of hearing three separate speakers while having to make room for just one on your entertainment stand or wall. Just be sure to feed this passive (non-amplified) speaker some power from your receiver or amplifier, and it'll reward you with sound that's bigger, more powerful, and way more detailed than those tiny, tinny speakers in your TV. Contemporary design to match any flat-panel TV The polymer cabinet has a stylishly curved front baffle that gives it both a contemporary look and low-resonance structural stability. The cabinet undergoes an extensive twelve-step finishing process to achieve a stunning high-gloss piano black luster. And the incredibly thin grille — it measures just half the thickness of a credit card! — easily pops off and on with magnetic attachments. Use the included glass base to place this speaker on an entertainment stand below your TV, or mount it to your wall using the dual keyholes slots and mounting bracket. Klipsch's Gallery family Create a slim, stylish on-wall surround sound system or low-impact whole-house audio system using any combination of Klipsch Gallery speakers.

Sound bars require minimal space and wiring, and their sleek designs complement today's flat-panel TVs. Most sound bars have their own built-in amplification, so you won't need to use a home theater receiver. Some models use advanced surround processing and carefully aimed speaker drivers to simulate the effects of a full home theater audio system.
Great value LCR Written By Chris S., Nevada on Saturday, April 25, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bluetooth Connectivity Dialogue Clarity Ease of Use Movie Performance Music Performance This is a well designed, easy to install, and great sounding passive Soundbar. Klipsch has created another great product in the G-42. Pros: Great mids and highs Well designed Cons: None
Klipsch G-42 Soundbar Written By SH, Missouri on Sunday, April 05, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) rating Bluetooth Connectivity Dialogue Clarity Ease of Use Movie Performance Music Performance All in all I am happy with my purchase. I bought it strictly for watching TV and an occasional movie. I did not pair it with a subwoofer, and I don't use it for music. In the configuration I have it, it's perfect for dialogue, and does a good job with it. Pros: Excellent mid-range. Cons: It does not come with any sort of cover, so the cones are always exposed.
Good Quality Sound Bar...Excellent Buy Written By Everfam, Oregon on Wednesday, December 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) rating Bluetooth Connectivity Dialogue Clarity Ease of Use Movie Performance Music Performance I was looking for a passive sound bar to replace my SNELL box speakers (center, L and R) circa 2002. I chose the Klipsch Gallery G42 on the recommendation of a Crutchfield technical advisor. I was looking for something with a better look and excellent sound quality. I connected the Klipsch without a hitch. It looks fantastic and very high quality. The sound is great as well. It does seem a little bright on trebles and mids however I think I can achieve a good balance by adjusting the levels on my receiver and running room sound set up on my receiver as I did for the SNELLs. Pros: Great looks, good to great sound easy set up. Cons: None
Very happy!!! Written By Anonymous, Le Mars, IA on Thursday, October 23, 2014 Was looking to update my system, the wife hated my old tower speakers, so we found this as an alternative. Paired with two G12's for my rear surrounds and a Klipsch sw-110, looks great. Clean crisp highs, solid window rattling lows. We're hearing parts of movies we didn't know existed before. Took a lil tweaking to balance the highs and subwoofer. I have my high pass set for 100hz and above, low pass @ 110hz and below. My only complaint would be cost. Pros: Great looks, Great sound Cons: Cost
Sounds small Written By Anonymous, Palo Alto, CA on Wednesday, September 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I got this soundbar to replace two Polk bookshelf speakers that sound amazing but have always bothered my wife due to their size and difficulty of placement in small Bay Area living spaces. I thought a passive soundbar would keep me happy by allowing me to still power with my amp, and be a huge improvement aesthetically for her. Huge mistake - it is a lot bigger than many soundbars but still had very small sound. We were both unhappy, so I returned it to Crutchfield and spoke with their advisors about what to do instead. I ended up with some very small but powerful Definitive Technologies speakers with which I am delighted. I wish I'd called them first, they knew what I needed better than I did. Pros: Allows use of existing amplification setups Looks great wall mounted Cons: Size Tinny sound Looks terrible standing on a table
Klipsch® GalleryT G-42 Soundbar Written By pkp, Philadelphia, PA on Monday, April 09, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great speaker if you are looking for a non powered soundbar for under 1k. I ended up purchasing this speaker since I couldn't do an in wall setup. I was very impressed with the sound. I get very clear and rich sound from this speaker which is connected to a yamaha rx-a3000. The built in subs in the soundbar are not very powerful without a dedicated sub but perfect for night time viewing when you don't want to wake up your sleeping baby. On a side note, ff you have a 60+ inch tv, you might find the speaker a bit small. For me, the sound was more important than the looks and am very glad I made the purchase, especially since there were no reviews posted. Pros: Great sound. Easy to set up. Wall mountable. Light weight. Cons: None so far.

If Newton always played like he did in the latter half of 2012, he would move up this list. I wish he would demonstrate more involvement in the game when he's on the sideline between series. His arm strength and athleticism give him unlimited potential.
Yes, he brings up the sideline poo AGAIN.

We talked yesterday about life around Space Coast Stadium and what you can expect to see this spring if you're headed down that way. Today, let's talk about what you can expect when you're not at the Nationals' spring training complex.
Viera has grown considerably since the Nats came into existence six years ago. Every spring I've arrived in town and discovered some new building or road or restaurant that wasn't there the year before.
Hotel options in the immediate vicinity of the ballpark, though, remain sparse. There's a LaQuinta Inn, a Holiday Inn and a Hampton Inn on Wickham Road at Interstate 95, all about a five-minute drive to Space Coast Stadium. All can get pretty crowded during the spring, in part because the Nationals take up some of the rooms for team personnel, especially minor-league players and staff.
There may be a lack of hotel rooms in Viera, but there isn't a lack of eating options. Name the chain restaurant, and chances are you'll find it in Viera, either at "The Avenue" shopping center down the road from the ballpark or on Wickham Road (a major thoroughfare in theRead more »

is that sushi place still there? I recall seeing Chief, and several other Nats there
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:11 PM
For those of you that travel SR 520 between Orlando and Viera and are brave, you can stop by The Lone Cabbage Fish Camp on the east side of the St. Johns River bridge.Aside from your favorite adult beverage, you can sample fried gator tail, as well as your regular favorite bar food. It's quite a Florida cracker style place usually a good time is had by all.They also offer real Florida style airboat rides.

Does Space Coast Stadium charge for parking?
- Doc - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:14 PM
WOW! Great travel guide Mark. I'm bookmarking it for future travel in March. Thanks!
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:18 PM
Yep …. Parking costs 5 bucks on game days. Free for the practice sssions before the actual ST games begin.

Mark, I'm not seeing any March missions on the Nasa site…where'd you see that?
- markfd - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:28 PM
Great rundown Mark, you hit all of my favorites!
- NervousNatsFan - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:29 PM
There's a charge for parking, but there's a school across the street from the park that we parked in during non-school hours. Probably not technically allowed, but I despise paying top $ for parking at sporting events. And let's just say we were not the only ones parked there in Nats gear.
- Big Cat - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:31 PM
Nats Jack…..are you gonna be down there to report on whats going on? I think a fan can be more critical than a reporter

For the first timers down there, what is the best way to get there – fly into Orlando and drive over? If not Orlando, where to?
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:36 PM
I'll attend next Fridays (2/18/11) and Sundays (2/20/11) practices. I have season tickets to the games and plan on attending all except for maybe 1. I've also got access to several games at Disney.I'm also attending a practice at the Mets compound in St. Lucie and look forward to assessing the two different camps.And I'll call em as I see's em.

- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:38 PM
Everyone I know flies in to Orlando and rents a car. You can possibly find a flight in to Melbourne but the choices are usually very limited.
- Anonymous - Feb 9, 2011 at 4:54 PM
Go to the website for "Florida Today" they usually post launch info on the front page of the paper in a side bar below the fold.Glad you found Melbourne, Mark, might add the Chart House as a place to sit and watch the boats come in over dinner and lunch, then get over to Mel Beach and try Djon's Steak and Lobster for some great food, and if you are 'stuck' overnight Beachside, Lily's on A1A in Satellite Beach is a great breakfast dive and only about 15 minutes from the park (on A!A about a mile south of Patrick AFB.

Melbourne also has a dog track, for those so inclined to make a wager. It also has horse simulcasts available to lose even more!! JTinSC

I used to spend a lot of time in the area with customers at Cape Canaveral AFS and Patrick AFB. The town of Cocoa itself is pretty cool – old Florida. One thing Mark forgot to mention is, to get over to Cocoa Beach, you cross the Intercostal and the Indian River, which are really nice. Merritt Island is in the middle and it's grown a lot over the years. All the usual suburban stuff – the chain restaurants, the chain stores, a pretty good mall – is there.Cocoa Beach used to be sort of funky until Disney rolled in big time in the late 90s. The huge Disney cruise ships operate out of Port Canaveral – right by the entrance to the Air Station. As far as the Air Station goes, I don't know what access is like these days, but see if you can get a gate pass to go to the Air Force Space Museum which is about halfways from the entrance to the industrial area on the Air Force side (long before you get to the NASA/Kennedy section. You will have a very sober moment of thought when you see an actual Redstone rocket with an actual Mercury boilerplate capsule mounted on top at the very launch pad where Alan Sheppard and Gus Grissom launched from. It's sober because the Redstone is way smaller in person, standing upright, than it ever looked in film or photo. The capsule too. The setup looks like a triple-gauge telephone pole with a trash can on top. And the launch control center is a tine cinderblock building with some very antique-looking electronics. You will have a newfound feeling of amazement that the astronauts actually were willing to climb up on those rockets, and at the amazement that they were able to launch, monitor and recover astronauts with what looks like a couple of ham radios and the guts from a couple of really old Zenith televisions. You used to be able to drive right out on the pad. They had pretty much one of every rocket and missile the Air Force launched back in the 40s to 70s. Very cool.And Mark – I can't believe you left Panera off the list. That was Nats Central back when Svurluga was the Post's beat reporter.

Steak & Shake ??!! How come they can get those in Florida but we can't in Virginia? Many years ago, when I was working on a political campaign in downstate Illinois, I lucked upon the original Steak & Shake in Normal. I've been hooked ever since, & make an S&S pilgrimage every time I'm in the Midwest.

Oh, and would the airboat tours be up and running in the ST timeframe?
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 6:49 PM
They run the airboat trips year round.
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 6:51 PM
Just google Lone Cabbage Fish Camp.
- Andrew - Feb 9, 2011 at 6:51 PM
NatsJack, I am one that stays in Orlando and discovered the Marriott Grande Lakes resort last year which put me about a 45 minute drive door to door to Viera.I do the Orlando area as it is in the middle to catch the Nats on the road when they play the Braves and Tigers and Astros on the road and my kids like the Orlando area (I wonder why).
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 9, 2011 at 7:01 PM
Andrew… you probably take the "Bee Line" (we locals will never call it the "Beach Line") all the way to I-95 so you end up missing the Lone Cabbge. If you take the SR 520 exit it cuts about 5 minutes and 8 miles off the trip plus gives you the opportunity to experience the Lone Cabbge.
- natsfan1a - Feb 9, 2011 at 7:13 PM
Thanks, NatsJack.

Mark forgot to mention that Charlie & Jake's has great BBQ and live music on the patio to go with their own brews. 5 stars!Also Beef O'Gradys at Viera Blvd. and Murrell Blvd. about 2 miles from the stadium is a good sports bar with good sandwiches and bar fare. Coaches and players are there often.
- Tcostant - Feb 9, 2011 at 8:16 PM
One real option for those who are asking about flying. You can take the "Amtrak Auto Train" (http://tickets.amtrak.com/itd/amtrak/autotrain) from Lorton and bring you car with you. This way you don't have to drive the long trip to Florida, but with have the use of your own car in Florida. A family of three can get there for about $800 (use the Triple A discount) round trip and will save on car rental. You can leave on a Saturday at 4pm and make the game the next day.

For current launch schedules, go to Spaceflight Now's web site http://spaceflightnow.com/tracking/index.html.For Cuban food, Roberto's Little Havana, 26 N. Orlando Ave. in Cocoa Beach is good.

Mark, no need to report on this. We will all know as it will undoubtedly signal the end of the world.
- Staying in Satellite Beach - Feb 9, 2011 at 9:35 PM
The Conch Key on Route 1 is probably the closest tiki bar to Space Coast Stadium; good seafood, adult beverages, and a view of the water. As you can see from my name, I've rented a condo in that town on the ocean side of A1A; checking out the condo or beach house option in the string of beach towns south of Cape Canaveral is probably worthwhile if you're staying for a week or more. We've got a 1-bedroom place with a full kitchen that's only a 20 second walk from the ocean — less at high tide — and paying $1600 rent for the entire month of March.
- Ryan - Feb 9, 2011 at 9:54 PM
Within the past year, Grills opened on US1 just north of Pineda. It's right on the river. Fantastic view and food.

natsfan1a … Cuban food — I work a lot in the Melbourne area. The only Cuban I've been to is Roberto's,on A1A just south of Cocoa Beach. I've not been there in a while. Was good last time I went.NatsJack – thanks for the tip on Lone Cabbage Fish Camp. I've driven by it many times. I'll stop in next week when I'm there on business.I'm going to try Charlie and Jake's too. I've seen the ads but never been in there.My call for best resturant in Melbourne – Island Fish Grill, which someone mentioned here a while back. But alas, the beer selection is pedestrian and there are no taps. But the fish is cooked perfectly. And I second MZ and Bonefish Willieon Pineapple just off Eau Galle. Again, thouh, the beer selection is inexplicably ho-hum. Regarding Smokey Bones — beer selection fine, lots of TVs, but the quality of the food there has slipped, IMHO, since the quality conscious chain that owns Olive Garden, Darden Group, sold the SB's locations. Best beer selection in the space coast area IMHO – Coasters.Hotels – I've got two non-consecutive nights in the Holiday Inn on Wickham again this year. Was okay last year, seemed to have a lot of fans there. On business, I stay elsewwhere though. HI is quite reasonable on the rate.Yes, fly into Orlando. Flights all day long in and out of Orlando. The Melbourne airport seems to me to have all flights connecting in Atlanta — but not really, I know — and not very many of those.I'm going to try some of the other places you mentioned, Mark. I'm often in Meg O'malleys but I've never tried Matt's Casbah. I'll try it. MZ – Thank you. Great piece. If I see you in Charlie and Jakes, the first round is on me. I'm ready.

Hmmm, not worried about Cintron or Citron … More interested in Milone, Rosenbaum, Tatusko, and Barthmaier against the old standard bearers in the ice dome of Syracuse. Might make the Nats rotation more interesting as the season progresses …

Nobody has mentioned the best restaurant in all of Brevard County! River Rocks on Route 1 is just a few miles south of where Viera Boulevard hits Route 1. It is about halfway between Pineda Causeway and Viera Boulevard, about where Suntree Road hits Route 1. First class joint with a wonderful new outdoor bar on the Indian River. Try a late afternoon visit before a night game. It can't be beat.

If you're traveling with family members (spouse, kids) and they're interested in things beyond baseball, I strongly recommend you stay in Cocoa Beach, on the beach (for them). You can then drive to the stadium. There are some nice family-friendly options in Cocoa Beach, including the Space Center (already discussed) and kayaking (not in the ocean, but in the inlets off the bay) and the usual Florida assortment of mini-golf and other such attractions (nothing special, but the kids like them).

Gosh, this is great info. But the best part is that we still have MZ there, and he doesn't have to go on his own dime.

Is their still a pending 40 man move from Tom G trade?
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 10, 2011 at 12:21 PM
JayB… I just checked the Nats web site and went to the 40 man roster…. I know I had to take my socks off and multiply times two but each time I got to 40 and there was one more name on the list so I guess that means there are 41 guys listed which means ….. Yes. One more move remaining. Please ask Mark why this is for all of us.

The folks who've raised the issue of beer — especially good beer — will like Charlie & Jake's brewpub for a couple of the beers and the barbecue. There's also the Cocoa Beach Brewing Co. A nanobrewery (too small a place to be a microbrewery) in, well, Cocoa Beach. But my vote for the best beer bar in Brevard County goes to a place named Coasters in Indialantic. In a strip mall at the intersection of A1A and Eau Gallie Blvd. the bar has about three dozen craft and import choices on draft, well-made pub grub like wings and sandwiches, and multiple TVs that, for a little cross-sports pollination, usually has the Capitals on screen when they're playing hockey.

Gus, FYI, I've eaten the barbecue at both Kay's and Charlie & Jake's and I thought C&J's was superior. Now barbecue, like most religions, is a very personal and subjective decision so you may believe differently but I thought I should offer my testimony.

Mark,Thanks for all of this. As usual you go above and beyond the call of duty.I will agree with Mark. Seeing a rocket launch is way cool! I have seen a couple, one being at Kennedy for a space shuttle. It is funny, it is kind of an emotional experience (odd as that sounds). If you get a chance to see one lauch don't miss it.

I'm headedd south this weekend for an event in Tampa – and plan to cruise over to Viera bright and early Monday morning for the first moments of the 2011 baseball season. Mark, we haven't met, but I suspect I'll recognize you and will say "Hi." Can't wait!
- Gus in FFX - Feb 11, 2011 at 3:37 AM
Satellite Beach,Thanks for additional comments. I'm pretty certain we will try both q's as that's our favorite style of food. Of course, our favorite beverage is cold beer, so the additional info on Cocoa Beach Brewing Co. and Coasters catapults them onto our growing list of venues as well. :)PS: Our favorite bbq here in NoVa is Dixie Bones in Woodbridge.
- Nathan - Feb 27, 2011 at 3:05 AM
I'm surprised no one here has mentioned Long Doggers as a place worth eating. It's nothing fancy, but a great selection "beachy" food. Very surfy atmosphere.

I was having a spell where I didn't feel like I was progressing any. That the growth or the closness to my Hp wasn't as strong as I had felt in the past.
I talked to a friend about it after a meeting the other night, and he sugested asking my HP to remove the obsticals that stood in the way of my being of maximum service to him. So I did. Guess what I discovered. I was in the way, as usual. Thank God, I'm still sick and I still need this program.
Since that night I have done my Fourth and Fifth step which I put off way too long, and am back on the road again, to coin a phrase. Thanks for keeping me sober Kathy (Crazy Gma, and always will be)

Artisan: One Mango Tree
"No matter how difficult things get, the mango stays green...And in times of drought, we can eat its fruit to survive."
Northern Uganda is a region devastated by more than twenty years of armed conflict. Despite the fact that most of the conflict has subsided and many people are returning to their villages and otherwise peaceful lives, the ongoing violence destroyed many of the opportunities for earning a livelihood, especially for women. One Mango Tree was founded by and remains under the direction of a young American woman named Halle Butvin, who fell in love with Uganda's culture while on a student trip organized by the Global Youth Partnership for Africa. She recognized the talents of the many tailors of Gulu's central market, and thus One Mango Tree was formed as a partner to sell their products in a global marketplace.
Many of the women employed not only care for their own families, but also for children orphaned during the war. In addition to providing a vocation to these women, One Mango Tree provides school fees stipends to help alleviate the cost burden of sending so many orphaned children to school, as well as bicycles to ease the commute to work in the market.
One Mango Tree works with Ugandan and American designers to create their products, mixing the bright African wax printed fabrics purchased in local markets with functional design. Using foot-treadle sewing machines, the women make both traditional and modern style clothing.
Auma Lucy
Auma Lucy is One Mango Tree's head tailor and trainer, providing support and a vocation for the women she employs. Lucy is a single mother herself, caring for eleven orphans in addition to her own two children. Known throughout the community for her kindness and tailoring talents, Lucy became a magnet for young people, in the hopes that she could impart some of her knowledge and skills so they too could make a living. Having struggled herself as a young single mother, Lucy would accept as many women as would fit in her market stall. With the help of One Mango Tree, Lucy's tailors are now paid fair wages, helping them to improve their lives.

The common misconception is that punk musicians aren't very good at their craft. For the most part, that might be true — Dee Dee Ramone did get laughed out of an audition for Television in 1973.
But for a musical genre so driven by the beat, where lightning fast technique is a prerequisite for acceptance, the punk drummer rises above the rest. Unlike the guitar and bass players, drummers can't turn down their instrument or increase the distortion.Filed under: -

Drummer Tommy Ramone passed away Friday at the age of 65, and, as the last living founding member of iconic CBGB originals the Ramones, his passing feels that much more sad. Gone, a living touchstone to a music born of the primordial moment that gave birth to not just punk but so much of modern rock 'n' roll. Because of the incredible influence they've had, it's no surprise that the Ramones are one of the most covered bands ever. By our count, there have been somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 Ramones tribute albums released over the years.

Cutting, slicing, biting, rich, funky, hollow, bassy, trebly, distorted, overdriven, pushed, compressed, twangy, stringy, woody, chocolate, vanilla, spicy, swirling, thuddy, tinny, metallic, good, bad, WTF-were-you-thinking, resonant, reverberant, ramped-up, ramped-down, percussive, mushy, floating, airy, sparkling, fat, thin...
It's funny because a lot of the "bad" adjectives might be the perfect sound for a recording or band situation.
My favorite is "Chewy"... VERY, very, very few amps/pedals produce this tone... It is most associated with old Tweed combo amps that had a beautiful midrange and a "chewy" tone.. My '55 5E3 does this.
One of the tone catch phrases that drives me crazy...."it's like somebody took a blanket off of your speakers"
makes me nuts every time I hear this...I equate this with presence....just say "increased presence!!!"
my personal favorite is "thick".
My old studio partner and I always joked about labeling a piece of equipment with a "warm" knob and a "punchy" knob. It would be configured in the same way as the "artist" knob was: not connected.

Love the LCARS theme.
Phoronix: Linux Video Disk Recorder 2.0 Supports HDTV
After a half-decade in development, VDR 2.0 has been released of this open-source video recording and playback software...
Love the LCARS theme.
Does that mean that it's not somewhat competitive with MythTV? But eh, I generally like how MythTV works already. The integration into XBMC Frodo is pretty good, too, even if it still has a few issues to iron out.
In which matter ? The architecture is different in a lot of ways. In my opinion I don't know if mythtv is competitive in any way, but I don't think so. Surely this is a point of view questionDoes that mean that it's not somewhat competitive with MythTV?
Many of the mentioned features are working for some years, vdr only missed a stable release so far. VDR also integrates very well with XBMC via the vnsi plugin for xbmc. The development is working on that one for years, long before live-tv went into xbmc main trunk.
I have already lost any hope for a proper support for Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-4000. Kernel devs don't bother to port driver to the newer DVB API and VDR devs won't support it because there is this new api.Added support for DVB cards with multiple fontends. Note that this only works for DVB cards where each frontend can be used independently of all the others on the same adapter.

Yes, I recommend this product.
"I highly recommend this shoe for walking, comfort, and everyday use. I walk approximately 30 minutes a day, 6 days a week to maintain a heart-healthy body and this is my favorite choice of walking shoes. My second choice is the NB812 for a slightly stiffer support. The Velcro straps always keep the same tightness no mater how far I walk and are adjustable quickly and easily if you so desire."

A few pages have passed I know, apologies.
I assume that the two of you understand the difference between content and presentation yes? Her sign carries about as much significant weight as a facebook status update. You'll excuse me if I don't lose too much sleep over mythically trvialising an already trivialised argument.
It was exactly the same with those nauseating 99% placards and then the "repartees" from those who disagreed with them. They contributed **** all except for a few people "sharing" it with their facebook friends and congratulating themselves on being pro/anti the "cause".
Ok, no prob. Let's begin.
"My rapist doesn't know he's a rapist" - Uh, yeah he does, unless he's genuinely mentally deficient.
"You taught him it wasn't his fault"- Who is "you"? The police chief who sparked the "****walks"? If so, why is this going on tumblr? Why does she not cut back on the block caps and refer to him by name. If it's not him, no idea who she's referring to. I think we're all taught that rape is usually the rapist's fault. Honestly, who hasn't been taught that (or simply worked it out through common sense and education)?
"This culture, your culture, my culture, told them, told me, this was my fault"- No it didn't and no it doesn't. We're not in Saudi Arabia. A tiny tiny minority does not constitute a culture. No Western culture as an entirety condones rape or blames the woman for it occurring. That's just such a worthless statement. I'm aware of how utterly callous that sounds and of course I don't wish to belittle her suffering (despite your loaded attempts to suggest such a thing. For future reference, the clue is in the syntax and choice of words. At no point do I refer to her personal account of being raped as inaccurate. I refer to her sign as being inaccurate. They're two separate things.). However, I can't substantiate any significance to her wider argument and nor should anyone else.
Prefer if you take it to V/PM if you have anything more to say.

I saw Life of Pi and Safety not Guarenteed recently. If you want to see some good movies this winter, they are worth checking out.
I haven't seen Les Miserables or the Hobbit. The former because I wasn't that into the play and the latter because it looks like an overindulgent cash grab.

Actually, the Suicide Silence version of "You Only Live Once" wasn't the first song to be named that. There was a song by the same title recorded by The Strokes in 2006, five years earlier. Personally, I prefer the that version better. However, if you really want to be technical about it, the saying has been around for ages, just maybe not particularly in those words. In fact, there was dialogue in Pokemon Yellow that had the exact phrasing.

Pretty good song.
Also ha, I saw that in picture form yesterday.
I'm sure that "YOLO" has been going on for a very long time. Imagine in medieval days when men decided to joust for some fair maiden and they thought "Hmm.. I could become severely disfigured or die from this.. but.. YOLO!!".
That was a terrible example.
I just woke up.
In any case "swag" and everything related (i.e. snapbacks, low riding) is wayyyy worse than people who say YOLO

I'm less concerned about him being removed as a mod because it doesn't really matter who's modding so long as there aren't any tools on the staff (which there aren't, at least in Misc.), but I'm pretty concerned about the fact that he modified all of his info and the rules thread to be all cryptic about sailing into the night upon the river Styx or w/e.
So that's why they had the "most likely to become a mod" category in SPPf Awards... :P
I really don't care as long as the person selected (if there is one) isn't an idiot, though that's not really something to be concerned about in my mind, because Kreis is a cool guy.

The Republic of Korea - commonly known as South Korea, is a beautiful country with rich history and culture, and a wealth of attractions. Boasting vibrant, modern cities, enchanting ancient sites, Buddhist temples and mouth wateringly delectable cuisine to boot. On The Go Tours runs both group and private tours to South Korea escorted by local English speaking guides, and in 2013 were recognised as the Best Holiday Company to Central and East Asia by the prestigious British Travel Awards.
Our tours to South Korea are peppered with some lovely local experiences - take a stroll along serene Cheonggyecheon stream in Seoul, spend a night in a traditional Hanok Village, chow down on a traditonal Korean BBQ, watch the comical 'Jump' martial arts show in Seoul, or go hiking with the locals in Mt Hallasan National Park on Jeju Island.
The heart and soul of the nation is Seoul, the captivating 600 year old capital city which is busy reinventing itself as an energetic, high tech metropolis, embracing all that is modern, yet with a firm eye on it's past, with several historic palaces, temples and its ancient city walls. In the south, the cultural capital is undoubtedly Gyeongju. Dating back to 56 BC, it is known as 'the museum without walls' due to its wealth of historic sites including the World Heritage Listed Seokguram Grotto and Bulguksa Temple. For a small country, the picturesque landscape of South Korea is surprisingly diverse, from the towering granite peaks and lush green valleys of Seoraksan National Park, to endless glistening rice paddy fields, rugged mountainous ski resorts, sandy beaches and beautiful offshore islands such as volcanic Jeju Island.
Jeju island is South Korea's largest island and is situated in the south of the country. It is a volcanic island which is dominated by the imposing Halla Mountain which stands at 6500 feet high and is South Korea's a...

The Books
The Fellowship, having just read fragments of the Book of Mazarbul inside the Mazarbul chamber, hear the sounds of an approaching band of orcs. This group includes both Moria orcs and large, black Uruks of Mordor. The Fellowship tries to shut the doors to the chamber, but the orcs are already trying to force their way in. A large Cave-troll beats on the door and forces its foot thru. Frodo stabs the foot with Sting, causing the troll to withdraw. Orcs shoot arrows through the door, but they bounce uselessly off the walls of the chamber. At last, the orcs manage to burst their way through the chamber door. A fierce skirmish ensues.
Legolas shoots two orcs through the throat. Gimli hews the legs from under one. Aragorn and Boromir slay "many" (no exact number is given). During the fight, Sam is receives a small head injury but kills an orc himself. When the Fellowship has killed 13 orcs, the rest of the orcs flee shrieking. But just as the Fellowship is about to leave the chamber, a large orc-chieftain jumps in and pins Frodo to the wall with a spear. Thinking him dead, the Fellowship carries Frodo away, after Aragorn kills the orc. It is later revealed that Frodo receives a mere bruise, having been protected by his shirt of mithril mail.
Gandalf remains in the chamber while the rest of the Fellowship flee and faces the Balrog of Moria for the first time. Gandalf sets a shutting spell on the chamber door but cannot hold it. The spell is broken and Gandalf follows the Fellowship out of the chamber, down the Stairs of Khazad-dûm.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Book II: Chapter 5: The Bridge of Khazad-dûm.
The Films
- Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring, Scene 35: Balin's Tomb and Scene 36: The Bridge of Khazad-dûm.
- The Battle of the Chamber of Mazarbul is expanded a great deal in the films, to aid the movie's dramatic flow and pacing, and to make the battle something more meaningful for the Fellowship on screen. The entire Fellowship takes part in the skirmish.
The battle begins when a large group of Moria orcs breaks through the chamber door. A furious, fairly prolonged battle ensues. The cave-troll enters the scene early on, breaking into the chamber and nearly killing Sam, who ducks under the troll's legs just in time. The fighting continues, with Legolas, Aragorn, Boromir and Gimli killing many orcs. Sam is able to kill (or at least knock out) a few with one of his iron pans and kills at least one with his sword. Frodo, Merry and Pippin seem to be participating in the fight as well. Peter Jackson likely wanted to involve the entire Fellowship in the battle to make it something meaningful to each member, as well as to the group as a whole, it being the Fellowship's first real battle together (in the book, the Fellowship doesn't really fight together like this).
- It is source of common debate as to whether or not the "black Uruks of Mordor" described by Tolkien are present in the film.
There are a few orcs that physically look slightly different from the rest, though they wear the same armor. Some have argued that perhaps the Mordor Uruks sent to Moria by Sauron had taken up the Moria orcs' way of life, adopting their armor and weaponry.
- In the film, it is the Cave-troll that chases after Frodo and hits him with a spear, rather than an orc-chieftain.
Jackson likely wanted to bring the Cave-troll into the center of the action, adding greater interest to the battle.
Following a momentary victory, when most of the orcs have been killed or fled the chamber, the Fellowship hear the sound of more orcs approaching and flee through a break in the eastern wall of the chamber back to Twenty-first Hall (see Chamber of Mazarbul for notes on geographical changes). The action is extended further in the film, as the Fellowship are soon surrounded by hundreds of Moria orcs, before the Balrog enters the hall.
- Gandalf never has his encounter with the Balrog in the Mazarbul chamber in the movie.
Jackson likely wanted to reserve the revelation of the Balrog for a more dramatic moment on film.
In the extended cut of the film, an important character moment is added, in which Aragorn saves Boromir from an attacking Moria orc. This further develops the relationship between the two men.

When you buy a new computer chances are that you spent a significant amount of money on it, and you want to ensure that it is in the best shape as possible. You also will want to be sure that you take care of it properly and clean it regularly to make sure that it functions correctly at all time. However, with technology there can always be a few downfalls as well. For example, simply by opening a spam email you may encounter a virus and in return that virus can cause problems for your computer. With the help of virus protection software you will not need to worry about having a virus ruin all of the files in your computer. However, it is important that you research protection software and that you buy the best software available. You will want to make sure that the software that you purchase will actually work with your computer. For example, different types of software functions better with certain types of computers. It is important that you know the make and model of your computer before buying this type of software.
If you think that you have got a virus on your computer, you have a couple different options. For example, you can make sure that you call a professional immediately, or if you are more computers savvy you can attempt to eliminate the virus yourself. However, if you purchase software that will protect your computer from viruses you will not find yourself in this situation. Obviously accidents do happen, but you are much more likely to not attract a virus on your computer if you have a system that is protecting you against it. Professionals will be able to tell you further benefits of the software and how it can benefit your computer system specifically.
You can find information about viruses by doing a simple search online. If all of a sudden your computer is extremely slow, you most likely have a virus. Another chance that you may have a virus is if all or some of your files disappear. This is why it is important to have a data backup system as well. You want to be sure that as you create documents that you save often. You should also make sure that you do not open "shady" emails because these often times can lead to viruses. Even certain websites can lead to viruses if you are not careful.

Niese looks to stay strong since return from DL
Giants lefty Bumgarner enters finale on own impressive streak
The pennant hopes of the Giants and Mets were squashed more than a month ago, but to the players in those clubhouses, there's still plenty to play for over the next week and a half.
"We can get ready for next year and use this year as motivation to prepare," said Giants outfielder Angel Pagan, whose return from hamstring surgery has been a spark for the club's recent surge.
The Giants had their four-game winning streak snapped Wednesday night, when the Mets rallied for four runs in the ninth inning. Now it's the Mets looking to start a streak of their own, and they send left-hander Jon Niese to the mound.
Since Niese made his return from a partially torn rotator cuff in his pitching shoulder, Niese has been very sharp. He is 4-1 with a 3.13 ERA in seven starts and has struck out 44, while walking just 10.
In his most recent outing, Niese surrendered two home runs to Miami slugger Giancarlo Stanton, but was otherwise solid in a win against the Marlins. He lasted 6 1/3 innings and allowed three runs.
"I felt that my curveball had a little bit more bite to it," Niese said after the start. "You just find out what works, and today the curveball worked a little bit better than it had earlier in the year. For the most part, I was able to throw it where I wanted to today."
Fellow southpaw Madison Bumgarner opposes Niese. Bumgarner has been a consistent bright spot in the Giants' pitching staff this season and has gone 18 consecutive starts without allowing more than three earned runs. That's the longest such streak by a Giants starter since Tim Lincecum did so between the 2007 and '08 seasons.
Giants: Affeldt likely out for season
Left-handed reliever Jeremy Affeldt will likely miss the rest of the season because of a right groin injury.
The veteran southpaw has pitched just once since July 20, and if he doesn't take the mound again, he'll end the year with a 3.74 ERA in 39 appearances.
"I don't know if he'll pitch again," manager Bruce Bochy said. "He has to be 100 percent."
Mets: d'Arnaud taking a beating
Catcher Travis d'Arnaud says he has been hit by more foul tips and backswings in recent weeks than he can recall, and attributed it to "randomness, part of catching."
But Mets manager Terry Collins thinks there may be more to it. He says d'Arnaud will likely receive a few more nicks than the average catcher because of the proximity of his crouch to home plate.
"You worry about it a little bit if there's some injuries that are going to occur," Collins said. "But right now, he's been fine with it."
Worth noting
• In eight at-bats against Niese, Giants catcher Buster Posey has four hits, including two doubles and a homer.
• San Francisco outfielder Hunter Pence has driven in 20 runs in his last eight games, though he had his streak of seven straight contests with an RBI snapped Wednesday.
• Mets outfielder Eric Young Jr. has 23 steals in the second half, including 10 in his last 21 games, to lead the Majors since the break.

Garry Rayno's State House Dome: Medicaid remains big budget hurdle
At budget negotiators' first meeting Friday, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, attempted to take several of the key issues off the table: Medicaid expansion, tax and fee increases and puffing up revenue estimates to pay for additional spending.
Gov. Maggie Hassan and the Democrats who control the House want the state to expand the state-federal health insurance program for the poor, disabled and elderly under the Affordable Care Act.
Morse said the issue is far too complex to discuss in three days.
That is not going to satisfy the House or the governor or even several members of Bragdon's own Republican caucus who want to see something done that will expand health insurance coverage for state residents while the feds are footing the bill for the next three years.
The House upped its revenue estimates enough to nearly make up the $50 million reduction, but that is not likely to persuade Senate negotiators.
Another area of contention is taxes.
Morse tried to end any discussion of tobacco or gas tax increases approved by the House when he said Senate Republicans would not support any tax or fee increases.
Charter schools, school building aid and state help for local water and sewer projects are also areas of contention that need to be resolved but are certainly not insurmountable in the next three days.
Medicaid expansion will be discussed by negotiators Monday, and that should give everyone a pretty good idea whether to expect a long hot summer in Concord or a cool summer breeze off the lake or ocean.
Last week, the drumbeat continued, and it will keep going.
The senators targeted are Jeanie Forrester of Meredith, Jeb Bradley of Wolfeboro, Bob Odell of Lempster, Andy Sanborn of Bedford, David Boutin of Hooksett, Russell Prescott of Kingston, Nancy Stiles of Hampton, Bragdon and Morse.
"We committed the greatest mistake in the history of the state," said prime sponsor Sen. Lou D'Allesandro, D-Manchester. "The state gave away its ability to create thousands of jobs and enhance state revenues dramatically."
Clyde Barrow of the Northeast Gaming Research Project at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth said first-year results show the casino is a success.
Bob Bahre, former owner of the New Hampshire International Speedway, is one of the principals in the development of the Oxford Casino, which was recently sold for $160 million to Churchill Downs Inc. Properties, which owns the home of the Kentucky Derby.
D'Allesandro, a member of the Senate budget negotiating team, said a casino would have produced the revenue needed to pay for the things the House and Senate are fighting over.
Aging New Hampshire: While lawmakers are arguing over providing health insurance for the working poor through Medicaid expansion, maybe they should be talking about Medicare, nursing homes, community-based services and assisted living.
While New Hampshire does not have the oldest median age for any state, the median age of Granite Staters increased from 41.2 years to 42 since 2010, or 8.7 percent.
According to Governing, some of the highest concentrations of older Americans can be found in New England.
Within New Hampshire, residents of Carroll and Coos counties have the highest median age, at 49.7 and 47.6, respectively, while Strafford and Hillsborough counties have the lowest, at 37.2 and 40.1 years, respectively.
Other counties with a large number of students — such as Grafton, with Dartmouth College and Plymouth State University, and Cheshire, with Keene State College — also have lower median ages, with Grafton at 42.1 years and Cheshire at 41.2.
Some have been warning for a while that the state's aging population would bring problems. Maybe it's coming to fruition sooner than expected.

Oppose the Frederick/Carroll County Waste to Energy Facility
We the undersigned hereby affirm our opposition to the Frederick /Carroll County Waste-to-Energy Incinerator located at the McKinney Industrial Park in Frederick, MD. This project, if completed, will not only dirty the air, soil, and water that serve as the backbone for our highly productive farmland, pastures, and waterways, but also will cause irreversible impacts to the health of our growing community.
This incinerator will not only cost the taxpayers of Frederick County 100's of millions annually over the next 30 years, but it will also have a negative impact on housing prices, local markets and restaurants that rely on "organic" farming, and businesses that depend on tourism driven by Frederick County's vibrant outdoor natural resources and the deep history of the Monocacy National Battlefield.
We urge Frederick County to pursue cleaner alternatives that prevent waste and create local jobs and revenues through reuse, recycling, composting and other strategies.
Sign below by May 15, 2013. A letter containing the total # of signatures will be sent to the Maryland Department of Environment prior to their May 20th public comment deadline.
NOTE: After signing, you will receive a request to donate to this web service. If you are not interested in donating, please just close the window. Your signature will be recorded.
Thank you!
George C. Rudy
"Public health and safety" trumps all other issues and considerations. It is well know that proven waste handling and processing alternatives are available to a "waste-to-energy" facility that emits toxic and carcinogenic effluents, and adversely impacts 22 neighboring schools; that is, approximately 11,000 children.
Scott Strait
Common Sense must prevail! Please help us inform friends and neighbors about this community-destroying proposal.
Juliana McCabe
NO TO THE INCINERATOR! Our community includes school children and farm lands NO to POISONING our children and our food THROUGH DIRTY AIR, SOIL AND WATER! NO, NO NO!!

Fried Green Tomatoes with Shrimp Remoulade
Last week a kind reader left a comment on my fried green tomatoes recipe suggesting that I try fried green tomato shrimp remoulade. I am always looking for new ways to enjoy fried green tomatoes and there is no way that you could go wrong topping them off with some shrimp in a tasty remoulade sauce. As luck would have it, I remembered seeing some green tomatoes at the farmers market last week so the fried green tomato shrimp remoulade made it to my meal plan really quickly! :) This recipe is pretty easy and you can even make the remoulade sauce the day before which works out for the best as the flavours get a chance to mingle overnight. While researching this recipe I found out that this dish is often served with the shrimp and remoulade sauce chilled while the fried green tomatoes are piping hot to add a nice contrasting temperature to the dish. I have to say that the tangy fried green tomatoes go really well with the sweet and juicy shrimp in their tasty remoulade sauce! This recipe would work equally well for a light meal of as an appetizer.
Fried Green Tomatoes with Shrimp Remoulade
(makes 2 servings)Printable Recipe
2 cups salad greens (optional)
6 slices fried green tomatoes (hot)
12 large shrimp (shelled, deviened, cooked and chilled)
1/3 cup remoulade sauce (chilled)
1. Divide the salad greens and fried green tomatoes between two plates topping the tomato slices each with 2 shrimp and a tablespoon remoulade sauce.

Stephen was a founder member and lead singer of Duran Duran along with Nick Rhodes and John Taylor. He left before Simon Le Bon joined and the ensuing international superstardom of the Duranies. Stephen went on to form the band Tin Tin with Mulligan and Dik Davies of Fashion, Andy "Stoker" Growcott of Dexys Midnight Runners and producer Bob Lamb. They released the first version of Kiss Me through Sire Records, topping the U.S. club charts in 1982 with the band headlining gigs in New York with support from fellow label artist Madonna. Stephen went solo in 1983, releasing this, his debut album in 1985 which was the first of a string of successful solo albums using his trademark smooth vocals and catchy melodies. Stephen later shunned the world of pop to form the critically acclaimed folk group The Lilac Time and the Brit-Pop friendly Duffy.

Agree with the article. Consoles have to be cutting edge else the risk being the bottom self sales item.
Ouya also doesn't break any boundaries. There are already plenty of set top boxes running ARM/Android that can take joysticks. It's important though that they set standards that buyer and developers can rely on, as in all the same joystick configurations and items supplied. The reason behind this is developers willl mainly target the mass install base standard so it should be high and solid to start with.
I'm also very critical of these crowd funding projects. I fear many are siphoning monies off for high salary positions or cash for buddy equipment.
Maybe they should beg Steam to add gaming option to their existing Stream client for Android and have it work well with Ouya.
