In Kashmir, rebel killed a former rebel commander who had tried to negotiate a peace deal with India for Kashmir. The rebels have long sought to terrorize moderates into silence.
In Karachi, Pakistan, the Macedonian consulate was bombed and three Pakistanis were found inside with their throats cut. The attack was thought to be in revenge for the killing of Pakistani terrorism suspects by local police in Macedonia earlier this year.

My ratings are higher than yours, which isn't all that hard. That being said, you apparently missed the whole "Playing with" a hunter part. And if it's about avatars, I have Jacky in mine, does that mean I am him? Because by your logic it does!
In one of his other videos it hit a rogue who had nearly 67% pvp defense for 250k~ followed by a blink strike in the same gcd insta gibbing him from 100% to 0%. This is not okay in any kind of way and without the trinket procc it wouldn't have hit so hard, then he might've had to use his execute immediatly after the first two attacks to land a kill.

sorry to be a pest.
"purely for testing purposes" I may soon have access to a small number of mpeg4 files. .m4a extension on them.
Can somebody advise a tool for UNIX which can convert these to mp3?
I am considering using mplayer in dump mode to get raw .WAV, and then re-encode but if there is a shorter path, I'd love to know.

We stopped along the way for lunch on a terrace that looked down on the Rhine. It's amazing how busy the river is day and night. Lunch was yummy, homemade noodles with beef strogonoff, of course we had some beer.
We arrived at Camp Berger without much ado. We remembered the time here when we had our good friend, Susan Abel with us cycling for 3

Hey Everyone:
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a good pair of cross-training shoes as I train for the CPAT and academy. I'm used to wearing Asics running shoes for distance running. I'm hoping to find something with a little more variability for stairs, sprints, lifting, etc.
All suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance!

text: [[quoteright:336:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Flashback_Title.jpeg]]''Flashback'' (also titled ''Flashback: The Quest For Identity'' [[MarketBasedTitle in America]]) is a CinematicPlatformGame by Creator/DelphineSoftwareInternational. It was first released in 1992 on the UsefulNotes/{{Amiga}}, and then ported [[PortOverdosed pretty much everywhere]]. The story is minimalist, but the game's aesthetic is full of nods to {{Cyberpunk}} films such as ''{{Film/Alien}}'', ''[[Film/TotalRecall1990 Total Recall]]'', ''Film/TheRunningMan'', ''Film/BladeRunner'', and ''Film/TheyLive''You play as Conrad Hart, a government agent in TheFuture. Using a [[SeeThruSpecs molecular-scanning eyepiece]], he discovers alien impostors living among the population, known as Morphs, who don't take kindly to him sniffing around their operation. Kidnapped, his [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory wiped]], he escapes his inattentive captors on hoverbike and is shot down over a jungle. Upon awakening, Conrad finds a {{Hologra|m}}phic log of himself with instructions to get his ass to Mars-- ...err, New Washington, where his contact is waiting to help retrieve those memories. Gameplay is similar to PrinceOfPersia, but with a gun. You get a [[DeflectorShields personal force field generator]] in the second level that lets you block shots- this, along with [[UnnecessaryCombatRoll rolling]], is the key to winning battles. The levels can get quite long, although checkpoints (misleadingly called Save Points) are scattered throughout.Made by the same company that created ''VideoGame/AnotherWorld'', ''Flashback'' used a similar method to create polygonal cutscenes and rotoscoped animation that could be played on an Amiga, Genesis, or SNES. It billed itself as "the CD-ROM game on a cartridge/floppy", and was stuffed with cinematics, most notably [[ItemGet when you pick up items]]. Later, it was ported to the CD-based consoles of the era, with a replacement soundtrack and CGI cutscenes. This title still holds the Guinness World Record for top-selling game from a French developer.A sequel, ''Fade to Black'', was released for the PC in 1995 and for the PlayStation in 1996. This was DSI's first 3-D game, and it really shows.An [[UpdatedRerelease HD Remake]] for [=PS3=] and 360 was announced.----!!Flashback is the TropeNamer for:* QuestForIdentity----!!The 1992 Flashback contains examples of:* AllCrimesAreEqual: Some of the policeman seem to be in on the alien plot, or, at the very least, insanely corrupt and trigger-happy. They nearly gun down Ian before you arrive in his lab on New Washington. As for airport security, let's just say it's [[http://lparchive.org/Flashback/Update%2013/fback13-11.gif beefed up]] by the year 2XXX.* AIIsACrapshoot: Conrad's second mission in New Washington is to track down a Death Tower android which has gone berserk and escaped.* AirVentPassageway: Conrad overhears the aliens' plot from a ceiling grate - which promptly collapses under his weight. To the dungeon with you!* AlienInvasion: The Morphs are hunting for new real estate.* AliensSpeakingEnglish: The aliens converse in perfect English, even in private.* AllThereInTheManual: A comic outlining the backstory was included with the manual.* ApocalypticLog: The dead scientist you find on Morph is carrying a diary of his exploits: incredibly, this man spent years devising a way to travel to the alien homeworld and destroy it. Using his instructions, Conrad is able to nuke the planet's core and thwart the invasion.* ArtifactTitle: ''Flashback'' set some sort of world record for this by restoring Conrad's memories in Level ''Two''. However, the suffix only appears in the American release, and was dropped in time for ''Fade to Black''. Still, the hi-def remake slows Conrad's memory retrieval so it happens more gradually.* ArtificialHuman: Flashmen. * ArtificialStupidity: Be warned that Flashmen are both dumb and smart. They are dumb in that they can't materialize on the edge of the screen, so you can easily corner them and get your hits in while the Flashman impotently warps in and out of the same position. However, they are smart in that they can climb ledges as well as Conrad can.* AttackItsWeakPoint: You can only hit Stunbots from a crouched position, and only when their arm is deployed. However, the loss of its only weapon triggers a SelfDestruct which will knock Conrad flat on his ass, so keep your distance.* BadassLongcoat / JetPack: The cops. They also wear [[CoolShades Terminator-like sunglasses]] in the Genesis and Amiga versions.* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Conrad has saved the galaxy, and destroyed the Morph homeworld... but he is stranded in unknown space, with no way back to Earth. He enters cryogenic sleep, prepared to drift in space a lone for a long time.]]* BottomlessMagazines: Conrad never runs out of ammunition, which is fortunate. His blaster apparently does not fire bullets, yet it still spits out shells.* {{Bowdlerise}} / NeverSayDie: "Death Tower" becomes "Cyber Tower" in the SNES version. The bar has also been renamed "Cafe" -- the kind where they serve coffee in longneck bottles and shot glasses. (Ah, Nintendo.) This was kept in the HD Remake, with the "Starlight Cafe" expanded into a sort of airport restaurant.* BrainInAJar / StationaryBoss: The Auxiliary Brain and Master Brain. The former hides behind a rotating shield which deflects fire; the latter is protected by organic sacs that spit goo. * BrokeEpisode: The second level has you doing odd jobs for cash.* CasualInterstellarTravel: Conrad's prize for surviving the Death Tower game show: a first-class ticket to Earth.* CollapsingLair: Level 7, after planting a bomb to destroy the alien homeworld.* DeadlyGame: Death Tower. This bit 'borrows' liberally from a certain [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger Arnie]] flick. * DeathCourse* DeathThrows: ''Flashback'' -- even moreso than ''Another World'' -- has aspirations to be cinematic, and as such the characters die in a flamboyant manner. Conrad will flail his arms spread eagle if you fall from too great a height, sometimes accompanied by a short cutscene of him flapping to his doom. On the other hand, the Green Death kills him instantly, freezing him in place as a charred skeleton.* DirtyCop: Funny how cops in this future only want to take bribes, shoot civilians and never, say, protect the innocent. * DisintegratorRay: ''Flashback'''s most irritating obstacle, aka "The Green Death", will soon become your most persistent, implacable foe. Conrad will get [[StrippedToTheBone reduced to a skeleton]] if he so much as brushes against one. They also make an irritating [[MostAnnoyingSound buzz]].* DramaticChaseOpening: The beginning starts with a cinematic chase focusing on Conrad and his pursuers' feet, followed by a first person flying car chase.* EasilyThwartedAlienInvasion: The Morphs have a giant passageway leading directly to the planet's core. Dropping a palm-sized nuke into the hole destroys the planet.* EscortMission: There's one in the second level. The VIP is one ungrateful bastard.* ExpositionBeam: Ian's chair restores Conrad's memories with a laser directed at his forehead.* FasterThanLightTravel* FlashStep: The Flashmen's main mode of attack.* FlyingCar: Conrad cannot pass a chasm on the Earth level without hailing a cab. The remake ditched this nice, quick cutscene in favor of a {{roofhopping}} sequence with Conrad clambering onto passing cars above a giant abyss.* FootFocus: The opening cutscene shows Conrad's distinctive sneakers beating a fast retreat from some pursuing gunmen.* FranchiseKiller: ''Fade to Black''.* FromBadToWorse: In the sequel [[spoiler: the Morphs are still around, have successfully conquered the Sol system while Conrad was asleep, and when he finally wakes up, he's in enemy hands.]]* TheGoomba: Stunbots. These are little robots on treads that will deploy a little arm to stun you. The arm can't hit you if you are standing in the same space, but the stunbot will sense this and blow itself up. * GovernmentAgencyOfFiction: The Galactic Bureau of Investigation.* GunKata: A key element of the original ''Flashback'' involves getting the drop on enemies before they can open fire. To that end, Conrad has an UnnecessaryCombatRoll which can be initiated while coming out of crawlspace or falling from above, and is essential in many spots. Originally, Delphine had the license to produce a game based on ''TheGodfather'', which was presumably dropped early in the development phase; however, the realistic movements and gun mechanics wouldn't be out of place in a Prohibition-era shooter.* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: "A SPY... Throw the wretch into the dungeons. We'll interrogate him later."** The aliens erase Conrad's memory upon his capture, instead of killing him outright. He might have been more useful to them alive, but this is never explained. In any case, Conrad easily gets free and steals a hoverbike from the aliens' garage; he's shot down over Titan and, after [[NoOneCouldHaveSurvivedThat a quick sweep to make sure their prey is dead]], his pursuers switch off their spotlight and head back home. Perhaps they did not expect Conrad Hart to survive the inhospitable jungle. Then again... ** Later, Conrad is imprisoned yet again. When the jailer opens the cell door, there's nothing preventing you from simply dashing out of the cell and reclaiming your gun, which is ''conveniently lying on the floor''.* GuideDangIt: There's a jump at the beginning of the second level that requires a maneuver you won't use often. The obscure move was deliberately included as a form of CopyProtection. Unless you had the manual, you were unlikely to progress past the second screen of level 2.** Also, there's the door in the sixth level that requires you to shoot it open, the only door of its kind. Nowhere in the game at all does it suggest to shoot any door, but the comic book in the game's instruction manual shows Conrad doing just that in this exact area.* HeKnowsTooMuch* HumanoidAliens: The mutants.* InMediasRes: Somewhat subverted. The plot should be no secret to anyone who bought the game legitimately, and you learn the truth behind Conrad's mission in the second stage, anyway.* ItemGet: You get a short cutscene whenever Conrad finds an important item, or exchanges it for something else. [[MostWonderfulSound DA-DAH! Badada]] ♪* ItsUpToYou: The only person defending Titan from mutant colonies, escaped replicants, and nuclear meltdowns is some guy posting classified ads in the Job Center. The police certainty aren't interested. (In fact, cops are behind most of the mischief in New Washington.)* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Played straight, and then literally flipped right around when Conrad's memory is reimplanted by... lasers.* LaserSight: Appears ominously on Conrad's back in a {{Flashback}} sequence, right before he's tranquilized and tossed into a car.* LegitimateBusinessmensSocialClub: The Paradise Club (an Earth-based strip joint) is a front for the Morphs.* LockAndKeyPuzzle* TheManyDeathsOfYou* MoreCriminalsThanTargets: If you add up the mutant hordes, corrupt police, and renegade robots. This is as much true of Earth as on Titan.* MysteriousMiddleInitial: Conrad B. Hart.* NewNeoCity: New Washington.* NiceJobBreakingItHero: While on planet Morph, Conrad finds another human survivor. Unfortunately, you can't reach him without triggering a motion sensor, which leaves the stranger wide open to getting shot by an alien lying in wait.** ImDyingPleaseTakeMyMacGuffin: At least he's nice enough to hand over all the info you need to [[spoiler: blow up the planet]] before he croaks.* NoBodyLeftBehind: Flashmen (quite rightly) explode once defeated. Fallen cops, on the other hand, vanish into a purple flash of light. It could be that they carry teleportation devices to warp them out of danger -- or maybe the dev team just didn't want dead cops' bodies littered around.** The Morphs revert to a plume of blue smoke and disappear. Which is a pretty unique way to expire.** The mutants' corpses are persistent, however.* NoHeroDiscount: An old hillbilly who lives next to a giant chasm on Titan won't fork over his [[ArtificialGravity Anti-Grav]] belt for less than 500 credits. New Washington is even worse, with a 1500 credit requirement for advancing to the next stage. What do you think this is, some kind of video game where you can find money in pots? Get a job, hippie.* NoNewFashionsInTheFuture: Conrad wears a brown leather jacket, jeans, and Nikes.* NoTimeToExplain: Conrad neglects to explain the overall plot in his holocube recording.* NothingIsScarier: The cartridge versions have no music, only brief leitmotifs.* OurGraphicsWillSuckInTheFuture: A holographic interface is the standard for most vehicles, including Conrad's hover-bike and the escape craft at the end. However, the Job Center's terminals are still stuck in the IBM 5150 days.* PistolWhipping: Replaces the standard gun attack when an enemy stands too close to Conrad. Can also be used to [[WindowPain smash out windows]]... too bad there's only one breakable window in the game.* PixelHunt: ** A lot of the items on the ground are hard to see. Some of them blink, others, don't.** Lifts can also be hard to see. Like the one at the very end of the game [[spoiler: that you need to take to the spaceship to escape the Morph homeworld.]] This very lift even became a GuideDangIt for some.* PoliceAreUseless: Extortion, corruption, and [[http://lparchive.org/Flashback/Update%2013/fback13-11.gif indiscriminate shooting]] are all part of a day's work.* PortOverdosed: It's been published for UsefulNotes/{{Amiga}}, UsefulNotes/{{IBM PC}}, UsefulNotes/{{Macintosh}}, SegaGenesis (both as a cartridge and a CD), UsefulNotes/SuperNES, UsefulNotes/AtariJaguar, UsefulNotes/AcornArchimedes, UsefulNotes/FMTowns, PC98, UsefulNotes/PhilipsCDi, UsefulNotes/ThreeDO, and [[UsefulNotes/IOSGames iPhone]]. Interestingly, the SNES port was released a year after the Genesis version, yet all of the cutscenes have different music.* PostCyberpunk* RealMenWearPink: Conrad wears a magenta shirt that mysteriously turns white for cutscenes. Except in the Genesis and original Amiga versions, where it's white all along.* RecycledInSPACE: It's ''They Live''...in SPACE!* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: The Morphs are blue-skinned lizards in red pajamas.* SceneryPorn: The Death Tower and the Morphs Planet levels.* SeeThruSpecs: Conrad's transparent green eyepatch doohickey, used to spot aliens who are hiding in human guise. Features prominently in cutscenes as well as the box art, yet you never actually get to use it.* Definitely gets used quite a bit in the HD remake.* SentryGun: They can't be destroyed, but a few have adjacent switches that turn them off. The firing rate is also slow enough that Conrad can duck, roll, or jump over the shots.* ShapeshifterBaggage: Averted. Morphs are ''incredibly'' dense as a result of having enough mass to shift to a variety of forms of varying sizes -- The Molecular Glasses (from the backstory of the original and actually used in-gameplay of the HD remake) can identify them because a Morph in human form is significantly more dense than an actual human.* ShapeshifterWeapon: Morphs LOVE to pop up under you and attack.* ShoutOut: The game is full of little pastiches to 80's sci-fi. Specifically, Conrad's backstory is a blend of ''They Live!'' and Arnie's lost identity in ''Total Recall''. The second stage has Conrad hunting for a loose Replicant, a la Deckard and Batty. The third stage is a nod to ''The Running Man''.** The final image of the game is [[spoiler: Conrad entering a sleep-stasis, and the camera panning outward from the window of his ship]]. [[Film/{{Alien}} Sound familiar?]]** We also get our obligatory ''A New Hope'' reference on the second screen: Conrad's CallToAdventure comes in the form of a hologram imploring him to go somewhere.* SinisterGeometry:[[invoked]] The floating attack drones have an element of this. Like ''Phantasm''[='s=] floating spheres, they have to get close to inflict damage. Naturally, they love to gang up on you atop of [[GoddamnedBats thin platforms.]]* SinisterSilhouettes: The title screen of the game depicts Conrad somewhere on Planet Morph, inching along the wall as an alien prowls the corner beyond. * SpiritAdvisor: During the final sequence of the game, an "inner voice" (implied to be the survivor from earlier) guides Conrad in planting an atomic bomb in the planet's core.* TheTaxi: Conrad's first task upon returning to Earth is to hail a hover-cab.* {{Terraform}}: Titan (Saturn's moon) has been transformed into a lush alien jungle, with a metropolitan city beneath its crust.* TeleportersAndTransporters: An important tool to master, especially in the last leg of the game. The Telereceiver acts as a portable beacon; Conrad can lob it over great distances, then activate the Telecontrol, which beams him directly to the beacon's location. Nifty.** Other teleporters exist in the game, such as the one in New Washington's Job Center. This is also the mode of travel by which Conrad journeys to the Morph homeworld.* ThemeNaming: New Washington's districts each have an "A" at the end of their names. This is evident when you visit Europe, which is rendered as "Europa."* ThrivingGhostTown: New Washington. Strikingly empty of actual people, but filled with mutants and [[GoingCritical volatile energy reactors]].* UndergroundMonkey: Mutants carry guns, but don't know how to use them well, and so they spend a few seconds fumbling the gun into position before they can fire. The ones you meet on Titan (red hoods) die in one measly hit, and Conrad is much quicker on the draw. However, the mutants in green garb are a little smarter and start carrying force fields. A few of the mutant colonies have leaders who take more hits than normal. * UsedFuture: New Washington is dank and grimy, full of rotating fans and endless basements. Earth is slightly cleaner, but still a dump.* {{Vaporware}}: A sequel titled ''Flashback Legends'' was being made for the GameBoyAdvance, but was canceled when Delphine went bankrupt.* VideoGameSettings: ** AdvancingWallOfDoom: The end of the fourth level. Conrad has to sprint, jump, and roll into a small cavity before the green death catches up with you. There are several mines littering the floor, plus a shutter door which won't open until the nearby flybot is destroyed. Flybots are very resilient, and they can't be harmed in melee range. All told, there is zero room for error if you want to clear the mines, skid to a stop, plug the flybot from a safe range, get the door open and escape.** TheAlcatraz: Level 5, aka the "Paradise Club" is something of a misnomer, as Conrad gives the club a thorough doing-over in Level 4. He breaches the alien stronghold, by which time he's tossed into jail and the fifth level begins. ** BossCorridor: Right before the brain.** ContainerMaze & ElaborateUndergroundBase: In the rear room of the Paradise Club, hanging onto the ceiling lamp activates a hidden elevator shaft. This lift descends into the bowels of the club where the aliens' forklifts and cargo containers are.** GraffitiTown: New Washington. The place was cleaned up for the hi-def remake, resembling more of an airport terminal.** GreenHillZone & JungleJapes: The jungles of Titan, which serve as your tutorial to all things Conrad. The enemies are easy, but the obstacles are not.** HubLevel: New Washington flits in and out. The majority of the action is concentrated in sub-basements and "Restricted Areas" that are numbered and won't open until the Job Center sends you there. The surface world will not protect you: the police have free reign, and a mutant barges his way into the cafe.** ItsAllUpstairsFromHere & WrapAround: Level 3. Justified because it's a cylindrical tower.** MarathonLevel: New Washington is particularly obnoxious with its sheer size, tedious subway travel... and a surprise TimedMission which will likely reduce the city to an irradiated crater on the first attempt. Clear your calender for this one.** MeatMoss: Planet Morph (though it looks more like bubble gum).** PortTown: The only flight out of New Washington must be won by competing in the Death Tower game show. Worse yet, Conrad needs a fake ID to enter, and forgeries don't come cheap.* WeWillSpendCreditsInTheFuture: Money comes in floppy discs, in denotations ranging from 50 bucks to 15 grand.* WhatNowEnding: [[spoiler: After defeating the Morphs and [[EarthShatteringKaboom destroying their homeworld]], Conrad escapes on a spaceship. Alone in an unknown part of space, he puts himself in [[HumanPopsicle cryogenic sleep]].]]* WhereTheHellIsSpringfield: The spaceport in which Conrad arrives. Interestingly, this being a French-developed game, some of the outdoor areas evoke a Parisian feel, particularly the signs for the Paradise Club.* YouAllLookFamiliar: Alarmingly, everyone in New Washington is an Ian lookalike. There are a few exceptions, like the barkeep with the 80's polyester jacket.* {{Zeerust}}!! The 2013 remake contains examples of:* CyberpunkWithAChanceOfRain:* TotallyRadical: Conrad manages to say "awesome-sauce" in the remake without a hint of irony.----

New York's JFK airport will benefit from a major expansion by Delta, the airport's largest global carrier. Nine of the new routes are not served by any other U.S. airline from JFK.
Delta's new destinations include nine trans-Atlantic routes: Tel Aviv, Israel (March 10); Edinburgh, Scotland (May 1); Dakar, Senegal (June 2); Nairobi, Kenya (via Dakar, June 2); Cape Town, South Africa (via Dakar, June 3); Cairo, Egypt (June 4); Malaga, Spain (June 4); Amman, Jordan (June 5); and Lagos, Nigeria (June 9); and five cities in Latin America: Panama City, Panama (December 13); Guatemala City, Guatemala (December 14); Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago (December 20); San Jose, Costa Rica (February 15); and Liberia, Costa Rica (February 16).
It may seem an unusual time for Delta to announce a big JFK expansion, as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently announced its intention to intervene at JFK in an attempt to reduce delays and congestion at the airport, which has the worst on-time arrival record of any major airport in the U.S. However, Delta will introduce "a strategic plan to help alleviate chronic delays and congestion before another peak-summer travel season," says its CEO Richard Anderson.
Specifically, Delta will decrease departures during the afternoon rush hour, reduce hourly departures by six percent during peak hours, and "[optimize] connecting times." Delta claims its changes "will offer a more than 20 percent increase in available seat miles by summer 2008, with only 11 more daily departures."

Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) stock has been on a rough ride lately, especially after Bill Ackman's recent allegations against the company's business model. The stock lost 42 percent of its value before Christmas, dipping below $25, before it rebounds to $38.56 onTuesday afternoon.
At $38.56, the stock trades roughly 50 percent lower than its all-time highs early in the year; and close to 40 percent above its 2012-low.
Does the recent rebound signal a buy for the stock? As I did write in a previous piece, it depends on which value criteria one applies to evaluate the stock.
Using traditional fundamental analysis, the stock is a buy. It trades at a forward PE of 8.31, with hefty operating profit margins and revenue growth rates, a good cash flow, and a generous dividend-though it is hard to find another public company to compare them with.
Avon | ||
Forward PE* | 8.31 | 17.52 |
Qtrly Revenue Growth (yoy) | 13.60% | -7.70 |
Qtrly Earnings Growth (yoy) | 9.00% | -80.80 |
Operating Margin | 16.32% | 6.2 |
Fye Dec 31, 2013
But if Mr. Ackman is correct, these statistics may not are as good as they appear, especially the company's robust revenue growth and profit margins-Mr. Ackerman argues that as the company expand to low income countries its revenue growth and profit margins will be squeezed, as has been the case with Avon's. And that could explain a large short position-26.70 percent of the Float (as of Dec. 14, 2012). The same is true if one looks at insider transactions-5,863,970 (+19.1%) over the last month, according to Yahoo.Finance.com site.
And I wouldn't even begin to look at the technical chart of the company, which is horrible-the stock trades below its 100 and 200-day moving average, indicating that the company's momentum has shifted on the negative side.
The bottom line: Herbalife's fundamentals may not be as good as they look. Conservative investors should stay on the sidelines until the picture clears. Aggressive investors may want to trade the stock on both sides of the market with options.

- Band Name: Cee Lo Green
- Record Label: Atlantic
- Release Date: Nov 9, 2010
- Critic Score
- Most active
- Publication
- Most clicked
Apr 29, 2011He's keen to please, but what's remarkable about The Lady Killer is that he manages to avoid all the bubblebath boudoir-soul cliches that litter most R&B albums.
Dec 8, 2010Lady Killer both honors and tweaks the tropes of vintage songcraft with hefty doses of sweet Motown/Stax boogie, a smattering of Curtis Mayfield superfly, and imaginary theme songs for James Bond.
Dec 8, 2010It's the rare hip-hop album that might actually make for a good movie, but Green's sound and vision are so boldly cinematic that a big-screen adaptation would almost feel redundant.
Dec 8, 2010The Lady Killer is generic in the best possible sense of the word; put simply: this is music for the soul, and even Mr. Gallagher has one of those.
Dec 8, 2010The Lady Killer doesn't possess the stylistic ADHD or the rough edges of Green's earlier work, sticking to sprightly brass arrangements and cheery string licks as his weapons of choice for the most part.
Dec 8, 2010Anyone who doubted that Green is one of today's most commanding vocalists simply needs to hear how he negotiates moods here and turns phrases with subtlety, wit, and style. Killer stuff.
Dec 8, 2010It remains to be seen if The Lady Killer will continue his hot streak, but it should-it's one of the best records of the year, and also his most commercial, and that's not an insult.
Dec 8, 2010Even with his quirks dialed down, Green has a voice that can burst any melody wide open.
Dec 23, 2010The Lady Killer doesn't have the same tightly focused future-soul sound as Green's other project, Gnarls Barkley, but that gives the singer a chance to show his wider ranging musical appetites with elements of vintage R&B, irresistible pop and even a couple of sleek spy-movie riffs.
Dec 22, 2010What makes this record so impressive is how effortlessly he has claimed his big pop moment without sounding compromised, and how easily he makes his producers bend to his strengths instead of vice versa. [Jan 2011, p.132]
Dec 21, 2010He delivers a tour de force on each track, solidifying his rep as one of the most dynamic performers in pop.
Dec 14, 2010It's Green's pitch-perfect delivery, his ability to switch from sublimely giddy pop joy to earnest moments of heartache and convince utterly in both instances, that make The Lady Killer a treasure. [Jan. 2011, p. 96]
Dec 8, 2010Thankfully, the thrills don't stop with the summer's hit single.
Dec 8, 2010With material of a standard to match his fantastic pipes, here Callaway has crafted his finest Cee-Lo long-player yet.
Dec 8, 2010It doesn't have any pretenses about being great and achieves in the most basic way possible: by being impeccably organized, well-sung, and well-written, with not an ounce of filler in sight.
Dec 8, 2010With The Lady Killer, Cee Lo Green is out for blood. Track after track, he triumphs.
Dec 8, 2010It's a faithful version that humbly spotlights the versatility of a fascinating talent.
Dec 8, 2010More than ever, Green is the surreal deal.
Dec 8, 2010Tremendous fun.
Dec 8, 2010How can you not love Cee Lo? He's a virtuoso rapper who has one of pop's most unique singing voices.
Dec 8, 2010All platitudes aside, I have to say that there is some filler - mostly packed into the album's second quarter where most artists tend to hide their more mediocre material.
Dec 8, 2010As an album The Lady Killer achieves everything it purports to be. Its music is familiar enough to attract broad attention.
Dec 8, 2010For every swanky old-school touch, there's a glassy modernity that makes the album a sexy sonic adventure of loving and leaving.
Dec 8, 2010If the de rigueur synthetic frills keep The Lady Killer from the visceral, tactile highs of the current soul revival, they do remind that artifice can often be its own reward.
Dec 21, 2010Despite some great tunes, his high-pitched, duck-on-helium vocals start wearing thin, becoming the detraction, rather than the attraction, of this album. Had it been 15 minutes shorter, The Lady Killer could have been this year's top pop album.
Dec 8, 2010It's all flawless in a string-laden soul way, but too clean an effort from a man who, in the past, has been so much more exciting by letting the grit remain.
Dec 8, 2010Don't like it? Well Cee-Lo has two words for you.
Dec 8, 2010Throughout, Mr. Green's vocals are buried low in the mix, mere decoration for the arrangements and textures, which are the real stars.
Dec 14, 2010On The Lady Killer, Green takes another shape, but this time with a narrow and singular vision: absolute soul impresario.
Dec 20, 2010Although it's hardly Green's fault, Mark Ronson's retro-soul ubiquity makes this record sound less fresh than it otherwise might have. [Jan 2011, p.86]
Dec 8, 2010As attempts at storming the mainstream go, this looks like a surefire winner, but musically it feels like a lesser take on Outkast's The Love Below.
Dec 8, 2010It is a thoroughly likeable little trifle of a record, valuable even if only for having produced what is undeniably The Single of 2010, but one wishes that Cee-Lo had not been nearly as content to work so comfortably within the confines of his considerable range and talent.
Jan 3, 2011It all goes down like kung pao chicken and Sapporo, but you'll be at Church's in an hour.

AVON, Ind. -- One of the biggest questions surrounding national signing day in the Indianapolis area was the status of Avon High School defensive end Elijah Daniel. The 6-4, 250-pound defensive end committed to Mississippi in January after previously committing to Clemson. Then last weekend he took a visit to Auburn, which raised more questions.
Avon coach Mark Bless wasn't sure as late as Tuesday night which school the highly sought Daniel would choose. Daniel, dressed in an Auburn pullover and stocking hat, officially faxed his letter of intent to Auburn at 7:01 a.m. Wednesday.

So it turns out that Kim's ex-hubby is not as dumb as he comes off. He may have made his first smart move in months over the weekend.
That's right. Even though I have a ton of questions about exactly what the heck happened between he and Kim, I do know that the PR behind it all was a disaster.
Most people have a pretty low opinion of him: he's annoying, he's immature, and he's a douche. In fact, I can't think of anyone who can even stand the him. Even after claims that Kim could have used him and his wedding as a huge payday, most people still took her side rather than his.
Now he is giving the company that handled his PR, Anderson Group Public Relations, the boot. Can you blame him?
It turns out he wants to have the right people in place to help him become a celebrity, or something he calls his "off the court" career.

8" X 10" Oil Painting On Canvas Hand painted oil reproduction of a famous Van Gogh painting, Cafe Terrace At Night. The original masterpiece was created in 1888. Today it has been carefully recreated detail by detail, color by color to near perfection. Why settle for a print when you can add sophistication to your rooms with a beautiful fine gallery reproduction oil painting? Vincent Van Gogh's restless spirit and depressive mental state fired his artistic work with great joy and, sadly, equally great despair. Known as a prolific Post-Impressionist, he produced many paintings that were heavily biographical. This work of art has the same emotions and beauty as the original by Van Gogh. Why not grace your home with this reproduced masterpiece? It is sure to bring many admirers!

23cm SEPTUM FEED (Note: Below describes my very first septum feed. For the latest new teqhnique: http://kl6m.com/23cm/23CM-SEPTUM-FEED.pdf ) More photos, with scalar ring: http://kl6m.com/23cm/scalar.html
Return loss charts: cursor = 1296.0 MHz marker = 1147 MHz ???
I'm not sure why there seems to be a natural resonant point at 1147 MHz. This did not seem to change when monopoles were lengthened.
Isolation before lengthening was about -16 dB. The plot showed a much deeper isolation (>>20dB) about 40 MHz wide at about 1375 MHz. After lengthening the monopoles isolation worsened to -13 dB. I tuned for maximum isolation and the best I could achieve was -22 dB. At this setting the return losses were very bad, around -8 to -10 dB.
I plan to try some different lengths and perhaps some different diameters for the monopoles. I am also questioning whether or not I should terminate the other port during return loss optimization. Normal transmit operation would have the RX port unterminated. Normal receive operation would have the TX port terminated in the coaxial feedline all the way back to the amplifier.
Comments are welcome !!

23cm SEPTUM FEED - FINAL RESULTS
Final Return loss: Right port: -27 dB (1.09:1 VSWR) Left port: -35 dB (1.04:1 VSWR) Isolation: -29.8 dB
I had excellent comments and suggestions from moon net folks. Most suggested that I start trimming and try to find the best results. One person mentioned that their final monopole length was around 48mm. Another mentioned 38mm. So I started at 48 and started trimming. When I got to 39.5mm I reached a maximum isolation of almost 30 dB! So I backed up .5mm and soldered and bolted everything down and ended up with the EXCELLENT results above!
Mission accomplished. THANKS!

Guinness Beef Short Ribs
1 each 750 ml bottle full-bodied red wine, such as Cote du Rhone
2 each Carrots, coarsely chopped
1 each Leek, white and tender green part, coarsely chopped
4 each Ripe tomatoes, seeded and rough chopped
5 each Garlic cloves, rough chopped
4 each Parsley sprigs
1 each Bay leaf
4 each Thyme sprigs
4 each Beef short ribs, cut about 3" and trimmed
1/2 cup All purpose flour
1/4 cup Vegetable or olive oil for frying
2 cups demi glace
1/2 cup Guinness
1/4 cup Honey
1/4 cup Molasses
2 TBS Coarse whole grain mustard
In a large saucepan, bring the wine to a boil over moderately high heat. Remove from the heat and add the carrots, leek, garlic, parsley and thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Let the marinade cool. Spread the short ribs in a shallow baking dish in a single layer. Pour the marinade over the ribs, cover and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Remove the short ribs from the marinade. Strain the marinade, reserving the liquid and vegetables separately. Discard the herb sprigs and bay leaf.
Season the ribs with salt and pepper and dredge them in flour. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil until almost smoking. Add half of the ribs and cook over moderately high heat until well browned, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a large roasting pan. Brown the remaining ribs in the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and add them to the roasting pan in a single layer.
Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet. Add the reserved vegetables and cook over high heat until beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Spoon the vegetables over the ribs. Add the marinade to the skillet and bring to a boil. Pour the marinade over the ribs and add the veal stock, honey and molasses. Cover and bake for about 3 hours, or until the meat is very tender and almost falling off the bone. Transfer the ribs to a cooling rack and when able to comfortably handle, remove the meat from the bones. Discard the bones and save the meat.

While remaining true to their commitment to wholesome foods, Donna and her husband, Kevin Maltz, have grown Fresh Sourdough Express Bakery and Cafe from the bread truck to a thriving 50-seat restaurant set to reopen for their 20th season Monday after completing a total renovation of their complex at 1316 Ocean Drive.
While there have been several lesser renovations over the last two decades, Donna's growing fascination with creating new sidelines and businesses has risen steadily, like bread prodded by the spark of living yeast.
"I love business," she said as she stopped by the work site on one of her constant errands. "I'm a very yeasted person most of the time," she said, referring to her energy level and interest in growing businesses.
Under the supervision of general contractor Scott Luchaco & Sons and the watchful eyes of Kevin, the 3,000-square-foot bakery and restaurant has been revamped over the winter with a new roof, new tile floors, a more efficent working area, new siding, realigned bakery and kitchen, new restrooms and more.
Falling back on the history of their first 10 years in Homer, when former local residents like a 12-year-old Jewel stopped by to sing occasionally or Tom Bodett read from his End of the Road writings, the Maltzes plan to decorate with photographs and memorabilia from those days.
But it's not just nostalgia, Donna is pushing - it's a lesson in entrepreneurial fervor.
After graduating from Evergreen State College in Olympia, Wash., with degree in "social ecology," Donna said she knew a lot about sociology and people relationships, but nothing about business. She grew some of those skills as she operated a truck farm near Olympia raising organic vegetables and herbs to sell at farmers markets.
"It's the coolest thing," she said. "When we drove up the Alcan Highway ... we literally had to bake our way up, six loaves at a time" to raise gas money.
With a little luck, hard work and a $5,000 loan from her father in New Jersey, Fresh Sourdough Express was successful enough to land a cover story in the Anchorage Daily News "We Alaskans" magazine in October 1982 - just five months after the little bread truck rolled into town.
"When we started, we were known as the hippie granola people," Donna said. But soon she began branching out to market private label baking mixes and cocoa under the Ah!laska name to sell around the state.
"But everybody needs to know, you just need tenacity and a work ethic," she said. "I want to encourage other entrepreneurs."
California-bred Kevin said he came on board as a baker in 1984 after a stint in Kodiak as a summer fish counter. In 1988 he and Donna married. Donna's internal yeast keep growing businesses. She's published a couple of children's recipe and fun books and is now planning a more serious book tentatively titled "Recipe for Your Life" to blend what she's learned about food and human relationships.
Donna sold the Ah!laska business about two years ago and said she is now developing a business consulting firm with some clients in Hawaii. Among her plans are marketing a taro-root baby food product and an organic insect repellent.
Last year, she and Kevin opened "A Memorable Experience," a bed and breakfast operation on the hillside.
Kevin is now leading the restaurant effort, Donna said, as she shifts her focus to creating other business opportunities.
"My passion is to create new things and design new things."
To celebrate their 20th year and inaugurate their renovated restaurant and bakery, they are hosting the Homer Chamber of Commerce's mixer on April 26.
