History has been created and re-created with the mighty Everest. This time again, history plans to re-visit the Mount Everest in the form of a free-fall.
An international group will attempt to reach the summit of the world's highest mountain using a short new and unconventional route
Conquering Everest is the ultimate aspiration of every climber. More than 2,500 mountaineers have reached the summit and 210 have died trying. A group of 32 men and women will become the latest to attempt to overcome the world's highest mountain, The Independent reported.
But, while their predecessors have all scaled the mountain that straddles Nepal and Tibet from the bottom to the top, this band of adventurers are planning something rather different. The international group, which includes men and women from Britain, Iraq and Pakistan, have already spent six days trekking to their base camp, which sits at 12,350ft (3,764m), a good way up the mountain. Today, the first of them will board an aeroplane and fly to 30,000ft. Once there, looking down on the mountain, they will leap from the plane.
After freefalling for one minute, at speeds of up to 180mph and braving temperatures of -40C, they will open their parachutes and float back to their base camp, precariously positioned on the edge of a valley – an eight-minute journey. Half of the mountain lovers have never jumped before. But that hasn't stopped them paying up to 17,000 pound for the privilege to take part. Among their number is a 72-year-old scientist, a Red Devils freefall member, a former soldier; and Molly Bedingfield, the mother of singers Natasha and Daniel.
Somerset-based climber Nigel Gifford, who himself scaled Everest the traditional way in 1976, has spent two years planning the jump. The daring attempt shows that the appeal to conquer the world's tallest mountain, which stands at 29,029ft, is still strong.
The Everest stands as tall and as strong as ever, braving all the brave hearts who wish to conquer it again.

WATCH: Alton Brown Demos the Simple Way And The Bloody Way to Slice A Mango
According to Alton Brown, the number of yearly hospital visits due to mango-related injuries vastly outstrip the number of hospital visits based on weasel attacks. And the reason is that people often use terribly dangerous techniques to slice mangoes — ones that involve cutting a knife into the general direction of your hand — which, when you think about it, is dumb.
As part of Brown's anti-dumb-food-injuries crusade, he demonstrates a much better way to slice a mango below. It's great if you don't like blood. (There's also the bloody way to slice a mango, but you're a bit of a weirdo if you prefer that method.)

Know of a good "over" mitten with wrist leashes?
I'm looking to change from gloves to mittens. The Burton Oven seems to be a great mitten, but I don't like wearing my jacket sleeve over the glove cuff...makes it too hard to get the glove off and back on, which I tend to do a lot. I want a warm mitten that has a wrist leash (so they just hang there when they're off) and will cinch up OVER my jacket cuff. Anybody know of any good ones like that?
Level Half Pipe Mitt Xcr. Larger cuff with a pull string. Wrist lease you don't notice when on you hand. Built in wrist guard that you can remove if you wish. Removable glove type liner. Gore-tex. Kevlar tip and thumb. I'm on my third season of the glove version and they still look almost brand new.
My reccomendation is the Dakine Element Mitts. They have all of the features you are looking for, plus they're super warm and waterproof. Mine are on their third season and still going strong.
REALLY appreciating the recommendations!
I got a pair of leather swany's and I couldn't recommend them enough, there on their 4th season and still going strong.
But you just need to look for gauntlet style mitts. |
I just copped a pair of Dakine Titan Mitts and they are the BEES KNEES!!! I have the shittiest circulation in America and even these mitts kept my hands nice and toasty in pretty cold conditions. They are Gore-Tex (can't get more waterproof than that) and at $65.00, they are probably the most affordable for what they do.
23 Attachment(s)
These have a safety leash and a safety clip, are gore tex and have great long gauntlets (to go over your jacket) and come with liners. pretty dang cheap too and bloody warm!

A Senate panel OK'd a new study on replacing the Metrodome, prompting foes of a publicly funded Vikings stadium to cry foul. The Vikings say nothing's happening for this session.
A new stadium for the Minnesota Vikings suddenly took the field Thursday, as legislative proponents pushed through a "small step forward" and critics, including Gov. Tim Pawlenty, said the initiative was badly timed as state officials face a budget shortfall.
With little advance notice, the Senate Taxes Committee authorized a $2 million study, to be completed by January, on how to replace the Metrodome. Though the study would not be paid for with new tax money, opponents immediately cast the move as a not-so-subtle step toward building a nearly $1 billion stadium for the Vikings that would need large doses of public money.
Later in the day, Pawlenty criticized the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission, which owns the Metrodome and pushed for the study. "I'm disappointed that they would take $2 million and spend it on a study of financing options for a Vikings stadium. It's been studied 15 times," he said. "It's not rocket science."
Lease expires in 2011
But the Vikings and commission officials said the study was necessary to position the team to push for a new stadium at the State Capitol next year, and said it was not a sign that a taxpayer-supported stadium would come before legislators this year.
They added, however, that with the Vikings' lease at the Metrodome due to expire in 2011, time was running out to address the team's desire to replace the 26-year-old facility.
Thursday's move came two years after the Vikings lost a bid at the Capitol to have taxpayers help fund a new stadium for the team but watched as taxpayer-supported stadiums for the Minnesota Twins and the University of Minnesota football team were approved.
"It was extremely difficult two years ago - extremely difficult," said Dean Johnson, the former Senate majority leader who helped bring about funding for the Twins and university stadiums. He said the Vikings likely now faced a "more difficult" hurdle.
Johnson, who has since become a University of Minnesota regent, said he had informally proposed having the Vikings play at the new university stadium instead of building their own facility but said the idea received little support. "It met with cold water," he said.
No partnership yet
After the Senate Taxes Committee vote, Vikings spokesman Lester Bagley said the Vikings and the National Football League were prepared to pay $250 million toward a $954 million stadium, which would include a retractable roof. Bagley said that the team did not yet have a government partner for the project, such as the Twins had when Hennepin County agreed to levy a countywide sales tax for the baseball stadium, which will open in 2010.
"We're going to need partners at all levels - state, local, regional," Bagley said.
Hennepin County Commissioner Mike Opat, the lead county board supporter for the Twins stadium, said Thursday he had little contact with the Vikings and downplayed a possible Hennepin County role in a new Vikings stadium. "There's been really almost nothing," he said.
"They're usually talking about in the future, kind of far off in the future, and I'm happy," he said. "I'm not ready to have the conversation yet. It's been fine by me that they say, 'Hi, hello, talk to you later - maybe.'"
Bagley said the Vikings still envisioned a stadium on the Metrodome footprint surrounded by new development, and was continuing talks with Avista Capital Partners, the owners of the Star Tribune. Last year the Vikings and the newspaper had a tentative $45 million deal in which the Star Tribune would sell four blocks near the Metrodome to the team. The sale later fell through.
Last month, Star Tribune publisher Chris Harte said the company had placed five city blocks the company owned up for sale, including the newspaper's main building.
"We're always in communication with the management, as well as the folks at Avista," Bagley said Thursday. "We'll have to see where that ends up."
Greg Evans, an Avista vice president, said the company would have no comment.

Have 2008 535i with sport pkg. Car starts to run ruff, bucks, has no power. Then check engine light comes on. Have had it at dealer 3 times for same issue. They first said that it was the gas, then it could be an injector. They replace # 3 injector, seams to have solved problem for a while but I still get the same symptoms ruff idle , bucks on highway and no power, check engine light has not come back on but I beleive this is becaus I turn off the engine wait a few minutes and then restart, that seams to smooth it out. Service guy seams to think that there is an issue with the computer setting but they can't do anything until they get something form BMW to updtae the computer. I know this is long, has anyone else had this problem.
Engine Check Light I own a 2008 535XI that has 12,000 miles on it. I have had 5 failures of the AWD/DSC system, which BMW claims is my fault for failure to drive the car long and fast enough. After leaving the car in a body shop for one week the AWD/DSC failed for the 5th time. I scheduled the car for maintenance and was backing out of the driveway for one of those "BMW high speed road trips, when the engine light came on. When I dropped it off at the BMW dealer, I talked to the Service Manager, who had no idea what was wrong. I should get the car back next week. Once I find out what happened, I'll let you kow. I'm convinced I have a lemon and may just trade it in on either a 2010 535 I, with less electronic gimics, or a 2009 Volvo S80. I have never had so many problems with a car in my life, and BMW seems unable to fix it. So much for "free maintenance for 4 years." Buck Cording 2008 535XI 1973 2002tii
I have the same problem on my 2008 535XI. It has 63,000 miles on it and every couple of days both ckeck engine lights will come on. When these lights come on it tells me that there has been an "Engine Malfunction" and "Drive At reduced Power". I also will get DTC errors. The car will run at very low power and sometimes very rough, and after a few days, BOOM, the problem is gone to return later. I've had it to the BMW stealer and they said I must leave it for a few days so that they can check it cold. I think this is just a crying SHAME, that a $55,000.00 car runs like a piece of S*** and the BMW stealers just give you a lame excuse. How many cars do you think BMW would sell if the buyer was told these excuses before purchase? I'll let you know what happens at my next visit.
Check Engine light repair I just got my 2008 535XI back from Sterling BMW who inherited the car, as I bought it from BMW of Fairfax. They kept the car for a week, which was fine with me as I told them to fix it or I was hiring an attorney and pursuing the Lemon Law procedures set up in Virginia. I had 5 battery discharges in 20 months and 12,700 miles and the final indignity of the dreaded Check Engine light coming on. Greg Miller, the Service Shop Forman ran a parasidic electronic system check to see how much electrical drain was happening during the "Sleep Mode". Turns out the car was in spec and he got me the third battery, out of the 7 series that is even stronger than the 855CCA Interstate that I had installed. He took the battery tender connections off of the battery terminals and told me to hook them up using the battery jump terminals under the hood. He mentioned something about the negative battery terminal connection being an "Intelligent terminal that talks to the car and charges the battery as required." Greg is a nice guy, but I am having a hard time believing a battery terminal can talk to anything! The check enging light had occurred twice with the rough idling and jerky running. He replaced the high pressure fuel pump and vola the cars runs like new. (No wait it is new). I have run the car for a week and it runs as it did when first delivered. The AWD/DSC systems are on and the new fuel pump really lets the car fly. I have replaced three batteries in 20 months and have fought with BMWNA who could care less about their customers. They originally told me I had violated a separate battery warranty by not driving the car the reuired 1,000 miles a month at highway speeds, as specified in the owners manual. I have read the 518 pages of the manuals twice and they are LIARS. This came out when I finally got a written apology and reimbursement for the battery I bought and installed. From all this fighting and working with Greg Miller, the only BMW person who gave a damn, I got the larger battery installed, no questions asked. Hope this helps. I paid cash, $68k, for mine and I feel the same way you do. What is BMWNA thinking? The way they treated me, had me mad enough to sue. If the car breaks again I am trading it in on a Volvo. I have owned 5, some with more than 100K miles on them and never had a mechanical problem. No it's not a BMW, they work! And yes I love my BMW, when it works. Let me know what happens when you get yous back from the dealership. I have my 1973 2002tii frame off restored BMW serviced at a local BMW certified repair facility and I get what I pay for SERVICE. Buck Cording
To all of you who responded. My car has been back to the dealer as I stated 5, 6 times for the check engine light and the rough idle and new problem hard starting. Here is what they have done: Their explanation after the 6 visits was that BMW is aware of the problem and has a software upgrade which they have now installed and it has improved the problems, I suggest you contact your dealers and have they install the software. The hard starting problem was fixed by replacing the High Pressure Fuel Pump. this they did in March, the hard starting has happened again and they just replaced the fuel pump again, they said that there were problems with the older version of the pump and the one they installed in march was the older version, What they have done to apease me is to give me the extended warrenty, 100,000 6 year , it covers everything they value is $3250. Maybe you guys should try for this. I am still considering asking for a replacement, I will see how things go now.
Fuel pump failure was common for early 2008 535's. We just traded ours in on a diesel x5. The pump was replaced two or three times and had a variety of symptoms from a no start to low power and rough idle. Other things to look for are shifter failures-replaced 3 times as the shifter would not return from the sport side of the gate to normal when trying to set the park button and then triggered a odb code, and steering angle sensor which was cool as it turned off the traction control and let me break the wheels loose when it hit second gear!

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana House and Senate lawmakers are drawing closer to a compromise on a package of business tax cuts.
A pair of legislative panels approved changes Tuesday for competing House and Senate tax measures which would cut taxes on business equipment and corporate earnings.
The new House and Senate proposals would both approve "super abatements" — allowing local government to exempt specific businesses from paying property taxes on equipment for up to 20 years. They would also cut the state's corporate income tax from 6.5 percent to 4.9 percent.
But the two sides are still split on whether counties should get the option of eliminating the equipment tax on new purchases.
The proposals follow Republican Gov. Mike Pence's request that lawmakers pass some level of business tax cut this session.

Both OCD patients and their close relatives fared worse on the computer task than the control group. This was associated with decreases of grey matter in brain regions important in suppressing responses and habits.
Lara Menzies, in the Brain Mapping Unit at the University of Cambridge, explains, Impaired brain function in the areas of the brain associated with stopping motor responses may contribute to the compulsive and repetitive behaviours that are characteristic of OCD. These brain changes appear to run in families and may represent a genetic risk factor for developing the condition. The current diagnosis of OCD available to psychiatrists is subjective and therefore knowledge of the underlying causes may lead to better diagnosis and ultimately improved clinical treatments.
However, we have a long way to go to identify the genes contributing to the distinctive brain structure found in OCD patients and their relatives. We also need to identify other contributing factors for OCD, to understand why close relatives that share similar brain structures dont always develop the disorder.

Sunday, the 16-year-old said she was a little confused about the comments about her hair because she just made history but people are focused on her hair!
Gabby says that she uses gel, clips and a ponytail holder to keep things in place when she competes; which is a style she has always worn and doesn't plan on changing it.

Misery Signals Indiegogo
link isnt working for me
me either http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/new-full-length-album-from-misery-signals
Digging: Alexisonfire - Watch Out!
Fucking stoked for the album.
Digging: O L D M O M S - Melt Jams
lol. Definitely gonna get something
They probably wrote all the songs already
Digging: Hop Along - Painted Shut
I'll probably donate $15
I'll probably throw 10$ at this one. It's cool that bands are really starting to embrace this idea, guess word of PtH's success got around. I know they don't really have label support so they don't have many options, but still. I'd prefer to support all bands this way.
Got the shirt/cd pack
they are hardly popular lol
The box set would be sweet but I am not going to pay for that shit
@bloc, I KNOW. I can't believe they haven't even entered the studio. Come on.
@ 8bit - watch the video dumbfuck @ graham - now you're talking asking alexandria level
Fuck bands that pull this shit. Get real jobs like the rest of us to fund your little hobby.
oh someguest, why so ignorant today?
Go thumb yourself.
well hes chill enough most of the time
Don't see why this is necessary. If they can't afford it, they can record the damn album themselves.
Yeah there are plenty of metalcore bands that are more popular than these guys. I mean they havent released an album since 08.
"dont give them any fucking money they are already the most popular medicore metalcore band if they cant afford to make another shitty album on their own then they are spending all their money on fuccking crack" fukin drug addict northlane rip off scumbags
oh my god the lack of reasoning people use when they hear a band is fundraising money for an album makes me cringe. Fans can WILLINGLY donate money in exchange for preorders and other perks and the money goes directly towards the band creating the best album they can so how is this in any way a bad thing
If these bands went and got real jobs then you losers wouldn't have anything to do!
idk what you guys mean by "real jobs" anyway. I could see the use of the term "normal jobs" but being a musician is definitely real. Music is so vital in all cultures that a musician shouldn't be shit talked for not having a "real job". I would hope that people on a fucking music site could at least realize and agree with that.
^Agreed. And if you didn't watch that video, which was really well made by the way, you shouldn't really comment on it. Because it explains a lot. And makes me like this band a lot more than I did already. Excited for this record.
Fuck yes, glad they're definitely gonna release something. Tempted to order the 4 vinyl boxset, but I can't really afford that. Will contribute in some way though.
oh graham stop being so cynical
if you meant what i think u did then yes
they'll always fall for it silent
def gonna back this, love these guys
I'll probably pitch in for this. Misery Signals is one of the few bands that always puts out a good album. I'm sure this one will probably make people shit bricks once it drops.
is it me or do these fuckers get dumber every waking minute
someguest and silentpotato confirmed for worst users
Wow am I on youtube? #misery#signals#defence#squad
Digging: Criminal Code - No Device
Wow some people are grade A twats on this site it's not exactly like they're demanding for help in a nasty way, simply asking the fans to chip in if they can and I don't see anything wrong with this.
Yeah graham has gone full retard
It's interesting to see more and more bands are doing this. Especially in this kind of genre where being on a label really doesn't help them at all. And usually affects the music adversely.
"lol cry harder pussies your shit band sucks dick" This totally sounds like a comment from an 8th grader on youtube.
Gonna rule might donate
i was still in high school when controller came out
Jesus christ people. They're using indiegogo to fund the preorders for the album, as well as help give back to the fans by helping them. Have you not watched either of the 2 videos? They're already recording it, they're pretty well into it. Go on their website to watch an entire fucking 11 minute video about what they're doing. I am stoked for this.
shit band sucks dick [2]
i dont get this shit its like hey fans gimme money 2 record then album comes out hey fans gimme money 4 album then its like gimme money for merch gimme money for shows gimme money for less money blahblahblahblahblah
Digging: Sheer Mag - Sheer Mag II
also i mean fucking what fucking band needs fitty grand to record an album i mean my god
not really i mean if you donate enough you get the album so i dont see what the problem is???
also: i didnt read the thread or actually click the link smfd
news articles always bring out the random users who ONLY post on news also, why do people throw around the word "cynical" like they know how to use it? It's reaching the status of "pretentious"
oh herp ket yure so silly!
donated 2345 dollars
About fuckin time for a new album. Already 33k dollars. Cool beans.
Digging: Skyharbor - Guiding Lights
Already 33k dollars
^ if that made sense fucking lol you are dumb
oh btw I know what cynilolcalism is thanks though zibel
Sure but it's a fantastic way to support some of your favorite bands/artists
Wow the perks they give for donating are actually pretty awesome. A chance for 4 private lessons and gang vocals is fucking sweet
"Sure but it's a fantastic way to support some of your favorite bands/artists" ^ this.
begging for money on the internet
Nastiness+trying to pass off nastiness as stating facts/opinions=sputnik.
Digging: Der Weg Einer Freiheit - Stellar
Nice! These guys are more solid than people like to let on. Alex Rudinger TORE IT UP on their last album.
Oops. I was thinking of Threat Signal. Misery Signals is at least as good, though.
Lol dumbass

To all bargaining unit employees,
Since the implementation of internet claims (iClaims), AFGE has periodically asked for your input and concerns regarding the program. Thanks to your ongoing input, AFGE leaders are able to better address the problems and concerns of our bargaining unit. Additionally, more than 150 AFGE/ SSA activists are able to communicate your findings and concerns to each and every Member of Congress at the AFGE Legislative Conference. AFGE will be speaking to leaders of Congress the week of February 9-13, 2015.
This survey is different than others as it has been expanded to include Self Help Computers and MySSA accounts. Congress has raised serious concerns about the security of SSA internet systems, as well as the cost effectiveness of the technology being used. AFGE will be informing Congress that the EService technology does not and cannot meet the public service needs. Employees do! We need more front line staff at SSA! AFGE will advocate for the resources (staff, overtime, etc..) to ensure hardworking Americans receive all the benefits to which they're entitled. AFGE has become aware of increases in fraud and other significant problems with iClaims and MySSA accounts. We need to hear that from you, the workers who actually review the cases and assist the public. Please take the time to answer the questions. You can add comments that will be shared with decision-makers inside and outside of Social Security. This survey does NOT require you to provide any personal information and we appreciate your candid and honest answers. You can also forward to your personal address to complete at home.
PLEASE TAKE THIS SURVEY!!! Share with all!
We have developed a guide for you to put in the breakroom to help educate the employees on what Vision 2025 is. Please get a 7 part medical folder (the yellow ones) Print the file below, and place the first page on the front, the rest in each part of the file! It is very detailed and nice! Thanks Patti Davis-Sato!

To the People of Buenos Aires,
I want to thank you for being so kind, so good humored and so helpful.
I want to thank you for not laughing in my face, brushing me off or walking away when I try to ask a question. For not rolling your eyes and making me feel like a moron when you have to speak to me s l o w l y and probably repeat it 3 times.
I love the way you see humor in everything.
I love the way you are open to strangers and their dogs.
I love the way you love children and animals... especially those dogs.
Who would not love a populace of a huge city, who might shake your hand when they meet you but they Always kiss your cheek. Both cheeks !
They kiss you Hello and they kiss you Good-by. And some, like the man that sells flowers on the corner in summer, will kiss us every time we cross the street. Prompting my husband to suggest we take a different route when we are out running errands .. he is still adjusting to the guys kissing him.
I adjusted, oh, I think ... the second day we were here.
I want to thank every single person who has stood there and listened to me trying to speak Spanish and for their little quiet prompts and corrections and Muy bien ! when I get it right !
I want to thank the people in my building who accepted the Norte Americanos and their Perro with open arms and kisses and offers of advice and help and invitations to family gatherings... we feel like we live in a huge house with distant relatives. I fear it will make it impossible to ever move .. how can we leave home, they will miss us ! Better, we will miss them.
I want to thank the Porters who stand outside their apartment buildings , always saying hello, some patting the dog, all giving me a wave . The valet at the hospital who always gives Pup a pat and wishes us a Buen dia .. Pup recognizes him, Pup knows them all !
I never feel like I am walking down to the park alone... I know someone is watching.
I want to thank the "boys" at the produce market who teach us the words in Spanish in exchange for the word in English.
Orange-Naranja, etc.
We speak Spanish, we have many teachers.
I want to thank the welcoming people that I have met and consider friends ... a lot of people don't know how difficult it can be to not only move to another city , but to another country, where you not only know no one, but you can't talk to them.
So it makes everything a little harder, takes a little longer , but with these lovely people here, I have no bad memories, only good ones.
So Thank you, Te quiero ~
Andy Warhol
- NotesFromAbroad
- My husband and I , with our dog, Tate, moved to Buenos Aires, 8 years ago. Life has never been the same since ~ Back in the USA ... life is still not the same !
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new.
But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful.
There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

This tub is gorgeous and amazingly comfortable. Painted ours black, which was much more challenging than one would think, but the finished project is amazing. Quality Bath was great; no problems with delivery.
Great tub and a great price. Delivery was timely too, considering it came from the other side of the country and it is very heavy. The Victoria and Albert products are excellent quality and will make any bathroom look very classy. I love my V&A tub and with the slipper design, I can recline in the tub and have somewhere to rest my head.

Coming to Walla Walla for a little wine tasting? Try a Cab-the Cabernet Cab-that is . With so many wineries and vineyards to explore, why not leave the driving to an expert? Lori Fischer, owner/operator of the European style Fischer House, is also a Washington State Certified Chauffer and Licensed limo Driver. Lori offers five hour wine tours daily. You can build your own tour, or, let her create one for you. A typical five hour wine tour wil expose you to four to six wineries.
Lori's tour offers both a personal and educational experience. It is not unusual for her to introduce you directly to the winemaker. He might be in the tasting room ouring his winesand talking about why he started the winery, or, perhaps he is explaining the conducive geological features of the area and how it empowers the grape. Or better yet, he may be trying a new blend and invite you to the barrel room for your opinion. Just be up for "whatever."
And for the serious wine connoisseur who is looking for a great tale to share with friends, Lori has direct access to a number of "Invitation Only" wineries. Let Lori know if this is of interest, and she will get you into a select group of private wineries. This is quite an undertaking-but you can count on Lori to get 'er done! You will not be disappointed.
In addition to the top notch tour, expect beautiful scenery that includes open vistas along the route, a many of the wineries are small operations that choose to produce quality wines over quantity. As such they are often in hard to find places. But no worries-the Cabernet Cab will get you there!
The BASE RATE for 1-4 adults is $250 + tax & amp; gratuity.
$60 for each additional person + tax & amp; gratuity.
Each tour includes a complimentary cheese tray, water, & amp; chocolates.
A full lunch is an additional $10 per person and includes a sandwich, cheese & crackers, olives, cookies, chips, and chocolates.
For more information or to book a tour, please visit her websites:

Race 8: Day 15 - Clipper race 2013-14
After Great Britain's spectacular offshore gamble saw the UK team climb into first place yesterday, the Northern Irish entry Derry~Londonderry~Doirehas fought back eager to reclaim its earlier title in the race as the leader of the pack. With just a few miles separating the two teams, skipper Sean McCarter describes how the tight match racing is making Race eight far from straight forward:
'After another good, if a little bumpy, night's progress, we have tacked over and are heading south-west back towards the rhumb line. We currently have Great Britain below and ahead by about six miles and OneDLL behind by about the same distance. Great Britain was unlucky not to make better gains on the fleet but the bend in the wind we were hoping to find up here didn't materialise.'
The rest of the fleet continues to make progress as it contends with the strong current and light winds; but Team Garmin suffered a very frustrating 24 hours. Skipper Mark Burkes describes the testing conditions:
'We made good progress north and we were happy with our relative progress against Invest Africa. Then we approached
Sumasuma Island and Awin Island. You see, they were in the way. So, I hear you say, tack around them then.
'That's easier said than done. The current here is phenomenal. Tacking into it is like tacking into the Alderney Race on Spring tides! In other words, absolutely hopeless. We tacked and we tacked and we tacked some more, changed sail plans, short- tacked, took a run up, begged, and cried ourselves to hysteria...but nothing.'

Chuck Todd: Hillary miniseries a "total nightmare" for NBC News
posted at 10:01 am on August 8, 2013 by Ed Morrissey
With RNC chair Reince Priebus blasting NBC and CNN for running Hillary Clinton-focused entertainment as she prepares to launch a presidential bid, both broadcasters have come under pressure from across the political spectrum to rethink their programming decisions. Yesterday, that pressure came from inside NBC, as Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough described it as climbing inside the, er, anatomy of the Clinton organization. Today, Chuck Todd added his voice to the criticism, calling the NBC decision a "total nightmare" for its news division that leaves it owning the negatives, with no upside at all:
"This mini series is a total nightmare for NBC News," Todd said. "There's this giant firewall, we have nothing to do with it, we know that we'd love probably to be as critical, or whatever it is going to be, if it comes out. But there's nothing we can do about it."
"We're going to only own the negatives," he continued. "Whether it's negative because it's the Clinton people are upset that it's too tough on them, or negative because the Republicans think it's this glorification of her—no matter what, only we are going to own it, because people are going to see the peacock and NBC and see NBC News and think: 'Well, they can't be that separate.'"
"You get the negative and they get the cash," Joe Scarborough said.
Nothing to do with it? The giant firewall to which Todd refers has enough open doorways to allow news anchor Brian Williams to make plenty of humorous cameos on 30 Rock for the Entertainment division's benefit, and the Today show certainly straddles that firewall on a regular basis, too. MSNBC isn't exactly a hard-news effort, for that matter, as the channel's management readily admits. NBC will spend millions airing this miniseries, probably just on Diane Lane's salary alone, and that speaks to a certain organizational commitment that talk of "giant firewalls" just can't erase.
Priebus appeared later on the same show to emphasize the point:
"I don't think there's a real difference there," he said. "I think people see NBC…in the business of news, in the business of entertainment, they're trying to do well in all of those areas, but I have to tell you there are times when there are decisions that are made by NBC, whether it's entertainment or whether it's news, that are going to have an effect over the entire brand. The umbrella brand might suffer because of the decisions that are made."
He also told Mika Brzezinski that the RNC would not choose to sanction a debate with her as the moderator, thanks to her outspoken partisan views on politics:
"But I'm not going to have you moderate the Republican debate," Priebus said. When Nicole Wallace asked why not, he continued, "Because you're not actually interested in the future of the Republican Party and our nominees. That's not a slam on you, Mika, but I have to choose moderators that are actually interested in the Republican Party and our nominees. It's not going to be NBC, if they continue to go forward with this miniseries."
"I think Mika would be great," co-host Joe Scarborough said.
So who would Priebus choose? Well … I'm almost too shy to tell you. Almost.
Hot Air is, of course, a subsidiary of Salem Communications, which makes this a debate proposal I can enthusiastically support. Seriously, though, as much as I'd love to moderate a debate on Salem's airwaves — or more to the point, see Hugh Hewitt, Dennis Prager, and/or Michael Medved do so — why not take the debates in house, as I suggested earlier this week? No organization has the interests of the party and its candidates closer to its heart than the party itself. Let a small number of candidates, rotating through several events, discuss topics and positions at length in real debates rather than gotcha contests in game-show formats. All that requires is an emcee or facilitator to introduce new topics, and let candidates formulate the questions and answers themselves. Reporters can attend and write about it all they want, and they will, as the media rooms of debates in the last cycle attest.
That would be not only in the best interest of the candidates, but also the voters — and even though they'll refuse to acknowledge it (except for Chuck Todd, perhaps), it's even in the best interest of the media. It would allow them to return to reporting rather than performing, and remove any ownership issues with debates that cloud their later reporting on presidential campaigns. Maybe Priebus is doing NBC and CNN a favor, and by extension all of the other media outlets, too.

Celebrity fever hits Melbourne
WITH speculation that former US President Bill Clinton will be a VIP guest at the Australian GP, there was added excitement on Thursday when film star Russell Crowe turned up in Melbourne for the premier of his movie "A Beautiful Mind". It remains to be seen whether Crowe will be at the race but it could be the most star-studded Grand Prix for years after a couple of seasons when B-list celebrities were the only VIPs on offer.

[SOLVED] Sabayon Linux 3.4 miniEdition help

Hey Dark,
I'm currently using Sabayon 3.4 mini edition on my laptop and I'm really happy with it, I hope things work out well for you.
The operating system you are currently using shouldn't impact the installation of this OS.
What happens when you insert the CD? Does it bring you to a failure screen or does it simply not recognize that it is bootable and bring you to windows? Did you checksum the iso that you downloaded or tried to reburn the CD?
03-18-2008 #3
It's alright now,a friend helped me But i need another thing from you Can u tell me how to install it on a HDD with installed WinXP Pro?Do i need a different partition and which format should it be?
03-18-2008 #4
I haven't install Sabayon in a while, but the installer should offer to shrink your XP partition for you. Before you do this I very strongly recommend you backup any important data on the XP drive just in case. 99% of the time nothing goes wrong, but I've been that 1% every once in a while. It might also be a good idea to run defrag on the XP drive just to make sure there aren't any stray pieces of files on the end of your drive you're going to use for Linux.
If the installer handles the shrinking for you, it will also format the partition with what it needs, so there's no need to do anything special there.Registered Linux user #270181

Ok,i shall try that.And do i need any anti-virus software to safely browse the internet?Or Linux is safe without it?

Linux is safe. Check this short security guide though.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Take a look at casper's link. It's handy. In general the only reason you'd need anti-virus in Linux is if you're on a network with other computers that are running Microsoft Windows. Viruses made for that OS won't affect Linux, but Linux can unknowingly pass along virus-infected files if it doesn't scrub them first.
If that's not an issue for you, you should be safe just following the guidelines casper linked to.Registered Linux user #270181

Michael Jackson's former protégé, Omar Bhatti, has been living with the Jackson family and telling Michael's three children that he's their father, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
Bhatti, a 25-year-old Norwegian rapper, was rumored to be Michael's son and showed up on the Jackson scene in 1996.
Sources tell RadarOnline.com exclusively that Bhatti has even told Jackson's children, "Call me Michael" and introduces himself as Michael.
PHOTOS: Stars Arrive At Premiere of Michael's 'This Is It'
It's a shocking rare behind-the-scenes look at what is really happening at the Hayvenhurst compound where Jackson's children live with their grandmother Katherine and as many as 14 others at any given time. California's Department of Children and Family Services has visited the home several times recently and has an open investigation into the situation.
"Omar has even told the children he has changed his name from Omar Jamal Bhatti to Omar Michael Bhatti," a source with extensive knowledge of the situation told RadarOnline.com.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Inside Michael Jackson's Home
"He has infiltrated the Jackson family in a way that many find to be disturbing and detrimental to the children," the source added.
At various times Bhatti has told Blanket, Paris and Prince that he is their father, that their father sent him to take care of him and that he is a real Jackson.
Some see him as a 25-year-old man exploiting the raw emotions and confused mental state of Michael's children.
He is also living off the Jacksons' money.
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Violence Inside Jackson Home
As a child he dressed identical to Michael, who seemed to revel in the confusion and controversy Omar's appearance generated. Michael even told some people that Omar was his son.
But others say that since Michael's death, Omar has latched on to the family and is manipulating Michael's children constantly.
"Prince has been particularly vulnerable to Omar and his claims," the source said. "He's starting to believe Omar's claims that Michael is his father."

Your Wedding Stylist Search Made Easy
Just because you're getting married in the Windy City doesn't mean you have to suffer from havoc hair. Your cool Chicago wedding is ripe for a classic updo or a soft, layered look, depending on the style of your wedding and the season. Finding a hairstylist to give you the right look can be the key, so read on for Midwestern tips.
You should consider hiring a Chicago hairstylist if you plan on trying a look that's more complicated than normal, if your idea of styling your hair is putting a hat on it, or if you think you're going to be too busy, or too nervous, to style it on your big day. You can hire a hairstylist for yourself, or go all out and treat the girls. Venues frequently offer an on-site stylist, and women take advantage of this for convenience and budget reasons. Make sure that you compare prices, as freelance stylists are sometimes cheaper.
Start looking for your Chicago hairstylist about 6 months' prior to your wedding; earlier if you have the time. When searching, ask friends and relatives, as well as other vendors. If you're invited to a wedding and love the bride's hair, make sure you get the name of her stylist. A great stylist should have five years' experience, and you should ask for references and contact the Better Business Bureau for complaints.
Prices for hairstylists vary tremendously, depending on where you live, your demands, and your personal style. Expect to pay anywhere from $300 to $500 for you, or from $500 to $1,500 for your whole party. Your hairstylist should spend an hour on you, and about 45 minutes on each girl. Many women hire a separate stylist for themselves, to have some alone time before the chaos. If it's in your budget, book a hairstylist for the whole day, to keep your hair in top form.
When you're ready to get serious about hair, visit the OurWeddingDay.com Chicago Local Vendor Section for a great list of top-rated hairstylists in the Chicago area.
When talking to hairstylists, ask to see as many photos as possible. Make sure you "vibe" with her personality; like other vendors, she's going to be a "guest" at your wedding, and it's imperative that she puts you at ease. Once you decide on a hairstylist, she'll do a trial run, a must for your wedding day. Bring your wedding colors, swatches, and any jewelry you plan to wear.
On the contract, make sure the hairstylist you interview is the same one who shows up on your wedding day, and go over all extras to make sure you're not charged for something you didn't request. You should have the name of any additional stylists, as well as substitutes in case of emergency. Hairstylists should be tipped 20%, provided the service is exceptional.

Skinnyfat - what's best for me, bulking or cutting?
Skinnyfat - what's best for me, bulking or cutting?
So I'm one of the unfortunate people who have had very unhealthy eating habits up until a certain point, and have (somewhat) recently decided they want to look good, and didn't have a body worth a damn when they did.
So I started working out, and have been lifting 4 times a week over the last 6 months (pyramid, mostly), before which I never considered fitness a requirement for a stable well-being.
As a result of a combination of previously poor eating habits, unsuccessful cutting (I tried to starve myself with a daily sub-1000 calorie intake for a couple of months, we all know how that turned out) and bulk-less lifting (I held the foolish belief that it's possible to lose fat AND gain muscle with noticable results) over said 6 months, I have an oddly shaped torso that's not fat, not buff and not skinny - it's a humiliating mixture thereof. I'm pretty sure this is what they call "skinnyfat". While I do think the lifting I've been doing HAS given my torso a bit of a more "manly" shape, it's still being violated by evil pockets of fat which my previous "non-self-aware self" has foolishly accumulated over the years.
From here, I'm fairly inconclusive as to where I should take my body - judging by the pictures I posted, should I swallow my pride and go on a bulk, which probably means I'll have even more fat to cut later on, and that It's gonna be a while until I can feel comfortable with taking my shirt off, or should I cut, and get a decent-looking base for bulking, but push the bodybuilder chest and abs farther away?

I agree with Pyrobatt - gain some muscle. It will make cutting both more effective and more rewarding. You may even lose some of the fat while gaining the muscle if you are newer to lifting. I think Pyro is right on the money!

Definitely go with a lean bulk to begin with. pyrobatt hooked you up. 100 - 250 calories above your TDEE calculated maintenance will allow for adequate, moderate, and sustained muscle gain with minimal fat gain.
I d bulk then once u have some muscle not a slow cut

Find a good proven program too. No offense, but most beginners have no idea what they are doing in the gym. Find a good beginner strength program, like a 5x5 or something. If you're not afraid to put on a little fat, 350-500 calorie surplus is great. Give it 6 months or so and reassess your goals. If you've never truly bulked before, you should have some solid results in that time.
Edit: You have a better base than I started with.My Protein shake brings all the girls to the yard

Spectral and Physical Properties of Some Desert Soils: Implications for Remote Spectroscopic Terrain Analysis in Arid Regions
Volume 46, Number 4 (April 1992) Page 640-644
Eastes, John W.
Spectral structure between 2.5 and 13.5 μm of a variety of soils collected from the U.S. Southwest and Saudi Arabia is shown to provide qualitative information about composition and texture. Calcite and gypsum, soil components playing significant roles in determining surface hardness, exhibit diagnostic features between 3 and 5 μm which may permit their identification via remote sensing. Gypsum also exhibits high surface reflectance at 8.7 μm; however this feature would be unreliable in a natural setting because it falls in the same spectral region in which quartz displays its strong fundamental. Silicate reflectance between 8 and 12 μm decreases with particle size; thus inferences of soil particle size and texture can potentially be made from spectral data in this region. Such information can be of military importance for forecasting regional vehicle trafficability and dust potential, often crucial concerns in the planning and conduction of tactical field operations.

would be pretty sick to have a three way large scale persistent PvP battle area similar to GW2(another F2P MMO), and even similar to the new Line of Defense mmo which also has this mass scale PvP. Maybe that will draw players back to the game. whats your opinion? |

We took the kids out this evening to see the Illuminations which, for those of you who aren't familiar with them, stretch for about five miles along Blackpool's sea-front. From the North Pier upwards, in addition to the various displays above the road, there are numerous tableau (children's TV characters, Alice in Wonderland, a boat-full of pirates, and so on) including this one – the Pig Palace (whatever that might be). I don't think this is a particularly great photograph (hence it's in my photolog category), but it was shot at night, from a moving car, in the rain, at f1.8, at ISO 400 – so I'm quite pleased with the way it turned out.

John Barleycorn
This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2009) |
John Barleycorn is a British folksong [1] (Roud 164). The character of John Barleycorn in the song is a personification of the important cereal crop barley and of the alcoholic beverages made from it, beer and whisky. In the song, John Barleycorn is represented as suffering attacks, death and indignities that correspond to the various stages of barley cultivation, such as reaping and malting.
Kathleen Herbert draws a link between the mythical figure Beowa (a figure stemming from Anglo-Saxon paganism that appears in early Anglo-Saxon royal genealogies whose name means "barley") and the figure of John Barleycorn. Herbert says that Beowa and Barleycorn are one and the same, noting that the folksong details the suffering, death, and resurrection of Barleycorn, yet also celebrates the "reviving effects of drinking his blood."[2]
In their notes to the Penguin Book of English Folk Songs (London, 1959), editors A L Lloyd and Ralph Vaughan Williams ponder whether the ballad is "an unusually coherent folklore survival" or "the creation of an antiquarian revivalist, which has passed into popular currency and become 'folklorised'". It is in any case, they note, "an old song", with printed versions dating as far back as the sixteenth century.
Versions and variants[edit]
Countless versions of this song exist. A Scottish poem with a similar theme, "Quhy Sowld Nocht Allane Honorit Be", is included in the Bannatyne Manuscript of 1568 and English broadside versions from the 17th century are common. Robert Burns published his own version in 1782, and modern versions abound. Burns's version makes the tale somewhat mysterious and, although not the original, it became the model for most subsequent versions of the ballad.
Burns's version begins:
There was three kings into the east,
Three kings both great and high,
And they hae sworn a solemn oath
John Barleycorn should die.
An early English version runs thus:
There was three men come out o' the west their fortunes for to try,
And these three men made a solemn vow, John Barleycorn must die,
They ploughed, they sowed, they harrowed him in, throwed clods upon his head,
Til these three men were satisfied John Barleycorn was dead.
Earlier versions resemble Burns's only in personifying the barley, and sometimes in having the barley be foully treated or murdered by various artisans. Burns' version, however, omits their motives. In an early seventeenth century version, the mysterious kings of Burns's version were in fact ordinary men laid low by drink, who sought their revenge on John Barleycorn for that offence:
Sir John Barley-Corn fought in a Bowl,
who won the Victory,
Which made them all to chafe and swear,
that Barley-Corn must dye.
Another early version features John Barleycorn's revenge on the miller:
Mault gave the Miller such a blow,
That from [h]is horse he fell full low,
He taught him his master Mault for to know
you neuer saw the like sir.
In popular culture[edit]
Jack London gave the title John Barleycorn to his 1913 autobiographical novel that tells of his struggle with alcoholism. Many versions of the song have been recorded, most notably by Traffic, whose 1970 album John Barleycorn Must Die is named after the song. The song has also been recorded by Fire + Ice, Gae Bolg, Bert Jansch, The John Renbourn Group, Pentangle, Finest Kind, Martin Carthy, Roy Bailey, Martyn Bates in collaboration with Max Eastley, the Watersons, Steeleye Span, Jethro Tull, Joe Walsh, Steve Winwood, Fairport Convention, The Minstrels of Mayhem, Galley Beggar, Donnybrook Fair, Oysterband, Frank Black, Chris Wood, Quadriga Consort, Maddy Prior, Heather Alexander, Leslie Fish, Tim van Eyken, Barry Dransfield, Of Cabbages and Kings and many other performers. The song is also a central part of Simon Emmerson's The Imagined Village project. Martin and Eliza Carthy perform the song alongside Paul Weller on The Imagined Village album. Billy Bragg sang in Weller's place on live performances. Rock guitarist Joe Walsh covered the song live in 2007 as a tribute to Jim Capaldi. Lithuanian folk-blues band Working Hobo performs this song in Lithuanian which is called Džonas Miežis.
In the 1973 horror film The Wicker Man, a Scottish Policeman played by Edward Woodward searches for a missing child on the west Scottish island of Summerisle, which is populated by modern-day pagans who engage in various Celtic rituals, one of which is the baking of barley bread into the figure of a man known as John Barleycorn, who is referred to by the baker as "The life of the fields".
Also the subject of a poem called "John Barleycorn" by Carol Ann Duffy in her 2011 anthology "The Bees".

Who has the most yards through the air. Oh, the Texans so when you get to the 10 stop throwing and give the other team a chance. The defense by in large has done a far better job than last week, but they forgot about the offense. Is it Palmer or Capers, I don't know but its time to let the team have some fun and play ball. Like some have said air it out and lets see if something happens. Our only success has been through the air as bad as Carr has been. When the other team knows you are only going to throw short makes it a lot easier to defend. I almost burnt my churros waiting for the field goal.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God gravy what excitement.!!!!!!!!!!!

EVENING REPORT (4.30pm AEST)
The Australian sharemarket has kicked off the trading week modestly higher, in what has been a very light day of trade for local stocks. The All Ordinaries Index (XAO) rose by 0.1 per cent. Volume was light partly due to market closures in a number of major markets. A public holiday in Japan, South Korea and the U.K. will keep their markets closed today. U.S. equities failed to rise on Friday despite the most significant monthly jobs growth in over two years. Continued concerns surrounding Ukraine is keeping investors on edge.
Australia's second largest bank by market capitalisation (its size on the sharemarket), Westpac (WBC) issued an 8 per cent rise in half year profit to $3.7bn. The result was largely boosted by a bigger than expected fall in bad and doubtful debt charges. A better than forecast first half dividend of $0.90 per share was announced and will be paid to eligible investors on 2 July. No bonus dividend was announced. The market pushed WBS lower despite the strong result as three of the four major banks hit record levels over the past week.
The miners had a much better start to the week, with the gold producers and diversified players improving most. Firmer commodity prices helped the industry make up for last week's 3 per cent slump. Iron ore prices fell by 5.5 per cent last week.
News Corp (NWS) is up 0.88 per cent ahead of its third quarter profit results scheduled for release this Friday. At the weekend, NWS agreed to pay $415m to purchase romance publisher Harlequin Enterprises. NWS already owns HarperCollins Publishers.
On the economic front, building approvals in March rose by 3.5 per cent which was above the market's expectations. The national average unleaded petrol price fell 1.4 cents per litre to 150.2c/l last week.
By the close, 1.48 billion shares had been traded worth $3.6 billion. 472 stocks finished higher, 497 in the red and 337 were unchanged.
Tonight, European leaders will be meeting while a report on the services industry will be issued in the U.S.
Tomorrow, the Reserve Bank is unlikely to raise interest rates at its monthly meeting. A $1.7 billion trade surplus is expected to be recorded tomorrow in the latest international trade report. The Victorian State Budget will be released on Tuesday.
Looking ahead to the rest of the week, retail trade numbers are out on Wednesday, a jobs report is out on Thursday together with National Bank's latest half year profit result.

The lighter end of the pencil required more pressure to apply. This pencil doesn't sharpen easily, the point getting chewed up rather than becoming smooth and sharp.
I've used this product for the past 2 years and am very satisfied with the results. I can't always find the color...brownish-black... in the stores I frequent so when I do, I buy 2-3 pencils. I guess this means others find this color very pleasing also.

Connecticut GOP AG candidate wins conservative endorsements
June 5, 2010
HARTFORD, Connecticut: Nearly two weeks after receiving the nomination of Connecticut Republican Party at its State Convention located in Hartford, Attorney General candidate Martha Dean picked up the endorsement of three major state conservative organizations - the Connecticut Citizens Defense League, the Family Institute of Connecticut, and Right Principles.[1][2]
Dean is the first ever candidate vying for a statewide governmental position to receive the endorsement of the Family Institute of Connecticut, an interdenominational, conservative 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization founded in 1989.[3] The group's specific goal is to encourage and strengthen the family as the foundation of society and to promote Judeo-Christian ethical and moral values in the culture and government throughout the state.

We have analysed alterations of alpha-skeletal actin expression and volume fraction of fibrosis in the ventricular myocardium and their functional counterpart in terms of arrhythmogenesis and haemodynamic variables, in rats with different degrees of compensated cardiac hypertrophy induced by infra-renal abdominal aortic coarctation. The following coarctation calibres were used: 1.3 (AC1.3 group), 0.7 (AC0.7) and 0.4 mm (AC0.4); age-matched rats were used as controls (C group). One month after surgery, spontaneous and sympathetic-induced ventricular arrhythmias were telemetrically recorded from conscious freely moving animals, and invasive haemodynamic measurements were performed in anaesthetized animals. After killing, subgroups of AC and C rats were used to evaluate in the left ventricle the expression and spatial distribution of alpha-skeletal actin and the amount of perivascular and interstitial fibrosis. As compared with C, all AC groups exhibited higher values of systolic pressure, ventricular weight and ventricular wall thickness. AC0.7 and AC0.4 rats also showed a larger amount of fibrosis and upregulation of alpha-skeletal actin expression associated with a higher vulnerability to ventricular arrhythmias (AC0.7 and AC0.4) and enhanced myocardial contractility (AC0.4). Our results illustrate the progressive changes in the extracellular matrix features accompanying early ventricular remodelling in response to different degrees of pressure overload that may be involved in the development of cardiac electrical instability. We also demonstrate for the first time a linear correlation between an increase in alpha-skeletal actin expression and the degree of compensated cardiac hypertrophy, possibly acting as an early compensatory mechanism to maintain normal mechanical performance. |
