I would like to do an experimental type of joint interview with Justin and Rob to promote their new blog Capital Pill. How all of us sit down and have a three way interview is unknown.
When Justin Morris returns I want to do a metaphysical post on Does man ever redeem his sins ? I will start off philosophical and Justin , Warren and MZ will add the religious elements and the rest will be mayhem.

I'll be around for this roast. I'm presuming that the roast is here, at your blog. - 5:28:00 AM
Good morning all and G*D bless!
I decided that the post on mental illness was going where I didn't care to go! Been batteling a sinus infection for the past week, along with annoying phone calls from one of my daughters ex-friends. I would have started screaming at the computer, which is counterproductive and I hate to scream anyway! So I moseyed off to play AoM instead. Hope ya'll had fun!

- Warren said...
Picky, picky, picky!
OK, no possum!
Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a decient wallaby in southern Indiana? Them suckers out at the zoo get fat!
Besides, its not dignified for a man of my age to get caught going over the zoo fence at night. - 7:57:00 AM
- beakerkin said...
The roast will be here.
Felis is a big fan of Possum. We will have to do with racoon, rabbit etc. - 8:29:00 AM
- Warren said...
Bumper crop of rabbits this year.
If the dogs and cats haven't gotten it, there should be one out in front of the house now!
Excuse me while I run out and check.... - 9:19:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
What's the subject today beak?
Let me see if I can follow your logic.
If the DC Sniper was a Muslim terrorist because his last name was Muhammad, then doesn't it follow that Son of Sam was a Jewish terrorist because his name was Berkowitz?
I mean, what's the difference? - 9:22:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
Secondly beaker,
Stop threatening to delete me.
If you're going to do it, THEN DO IT!
We all know that you're a racist coward who hates having his ignorance exposed. - 9:23:00 AM
- Warren said...
Stevie, You're the only racist coward around here.
You're also a pathological liar, no sucessful businessman could afford to spend as many work hours on the Internet as you! Of course, I've heard pimps describe themselves as businessmen.
You really ought to be embarassed, someone as ignorant of history, as you, shouldn't go around calling other people ignorant. - 9:37:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
Weren't YOU the moron on here posting at 1:30 in the morning?
Warren, my grandmother used to make squirrel potpie. If you have a few of those around, also have a mess of ring neck doves that are too stupid to get out of thier own way. Occasionally we get washed up loggerhead turtles or sharks, would that help? It being Friday and all!

If the DC Sniper was a Muslim terrorist because his last name was Muhammad, then doesn't it follow that Son of Sam was a Jewish terrorist because his name was Berkowitz?
Only if it follows that Uptownseteve is a fucking moron because he can't even spell his own name. - 10:30:00 AM
- FLORIAN said...
I've got Morgan's interview up on my blog right now.
- uptownseteve said...
Oh yes I can.
So now beamish/beaker, back to the question.
If the DC Sniper is a Muslim terrorist as opposed to a spree killer, then wasn't Son of Sam a Jewish terrorist?
Explain the difference. - 10:48:00 AM
- American Crusader said...
Looking forward to hearing Felix's interview. I've heard a lot about his time in the Iron Curtain. Should be really interesting.
- beakerkin said...
This is another example of your stupidity. David Berkowitz was not motivated by religious philosphy but mental illness. The well known religious motivations of the DC sniper are a fact. The younger part of that Dynamic duo regularly draws pictures of Osama.
You need a blog more suited to your stupidity. - 11:00:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
Another one of your LIES.
John Allen Muhammad was motivated by a sick desire to get his children back from his estranged wife and to create chaos in the Washington area to divert attention from his planned kidnapping of them.
ONCE AGAIN, I challenge to produce ANY evidence to prove that Muhammad was motivated by religion.
Just like I challenged your lying ass REPEATEDLY to produce my quote to LaShawn Barber.
But you won't because you've continually lied about the whole scenario and my exact words to Barber will prove that.
You can fool some of these clowns who visit your blog but I know exactly what you're about beaker.
You're so low you can do jumping jacks under a worm's belly. - 11:13:00 AM
- beakerkin said...
You can scream and hold your breath for all I care. You are in no position to make demands here. I do not respond to your requests as when extensive links were shown to you that Arafat was born in Cairo and Michael Lerner is not a Rabbi you say I do not believe them.
I do not respond to your requests and if you have a problem with La Shawn or Bargholz take it up with them. - 11:19:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
- Mr. Ducky said...
Why is Beak avoiding uptown's question about Son of Sam?
Why won't Beak produce the Barber data in question? - 11:51:00 AM
- uptownseteve said...
Because beaker is a LIAR and I catch him in lies all the time.
That's why he is threatening to ban me, etc....
At first I blew off the whole Barber situation (she banned me from her blog) because she's a sorry self-hating cow who is afraid of debate but beaker has been peddling this lie that I "threatened" her and that she is considering legal action, blah, blah, blah.
It's a total pile of crap and I've challenged beaker to produce this so called "threat" of mine.
Barber banned me because I told her that is was obvious that she hated black men and I asked her if she has found a white guy willing to take her out on a date or to meet his parents.
She totally flipped out because she knows that I dropped some truth on her. - 12:19:00 PM
- Mr. Beamish the Instablepundit said...
David Berkowitz claimed to be a Satanist and that a dog told him to kill. He never made any specific threats or demands, other than that he "was a monster that needed to be stopped."
John Allen Muhammad was a member of Jamaat al-Fuqra'. He made demands for money to be credited to a stolen credit card or the shootings would continue.
Who's the terrorist? - 1:32:00 PM
- beakerkin said...
The fact that I do not answer your personal questions does not make me a liar. I did not ask my friend Jerome what companies his son applied to. Why would I question the word of a friend who has always been honest.
Your comments to La Shawn are easily classified as Sexual harassment. You forgot the part about the hotel room. However I am not the complaint department for Donal, La Shawn Barber or Jeff Bargholz.
Your comments reveal your own stupidity . I have cut you more slack then you deserve. Take your posts to someone who cares about your opinions. This blog is not a special ed class. - 1:42:00 PM
- Mr. Beamish the Instablepundit said...
David Berkowitz was born Richard David Falco and adopted by a Jewish family who changed his name.
John Allen Muhammad was born John Allen Williams and changed his own name when he converted to Islam. - 1:44:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
And your point is WHAT beamish?
This is the most pathetic attempt at spinning and propoganda I've ever witnessed.
Son of Sam had the city of New York in a panic for weeks. I WAS THERE. He shot the first couple 3 blocks from my High School.
He wrote taunting letters to the Daily News and the NYPD.
He was no doubt a nut but so was Muhammad.
He was a mass murderer as was Muhammad.
But Muhammad is black and a muslim so you racists can't be satisfied with him just being a psycho killer.
His race and religion just HAVE to be factors and you fvckin' hypocrites don't so this with anyone else but blacks and muslims.
Over the last 40 years in America how many white boys have shot up college campuses, fast food restaurants, churches, day trading brokerage houses, etc...?
But at no time are they identified as "white male terrorists".
Their religion is never an issue.
Un-fuckin-believable. - 1:45:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
I mentioned nothing about a hotel room LIAR.
What are you afraid of?
- Elmer's Brother said...
uptown - you still haven't answered my question. Can I have a list of words that trigger these fits?
- beakerkin said...
Your own description of your post to La Shawn is clearly sexual harassment. When one denigrates the looks and tastes of a female that is textbook sexual harassment.
Finnis end that is it.
If you have a problem consult La Shawn. I am not her complaint department. - 2:25:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
that's right elmer.
Change the subject. - 2:26:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
you're full of dung and I've exposed you ONCE AGAIN. - 2:26:00 PM
- Elmer's Brother said...
I have always called you a moron.
- beakerkin said...
I sugest you look up what constitutes sexual harassment. Your own description of the exchange constitutes sexual harassment. The only thing that has been exposed here is your ignorance of the law.
However as you have zero honor you will not keep your word and depart.
Post your definition of sexual harassment. - 2:33:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
I've come to the conclusion that you are totally fvckin' nuts.
- Mr. Ducky said...
There is evidence to support that contention.
- beakerkin said...
Do not let the door hit you on the rear as you depart.
Define what behaviors constitute sexual harassment. Denigrating her looks, tastses in men all clearly fall under the category . - 2:44:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
Let's see here.
I said that I would voluntarily leave if you produced my exact quote to Barber.
That IS what I said, right Beaker?
Now what are you talking about? - 2:59:00 PM
- Elmer's Brother said...
just the top ten or so will do uppity
- beakerkin said...
This is exactly the word games we have come to expect from you. Do I look like La Shawn Barber ? Why is it my responsability or business what you do there. You clearly are guilty of sexual harassment in your own terms.
However as the conditions were met you will be deletted going ahead. - 3:07:00 PM
- FLORIAN said...
Here's uptowns quote:
"have any white boys been willing to take you anywhere besides a roadside hotel" - 3:14:00 PM
uppity- you are a bore!
It's Beaker's blog, if he wants us to post upside down in our pajamas, then that's the way you do it! If you have a problem with someone, handle it with them. If you have a problem with a lot of someones, go home and think about YOUR behavior, because it probably isn't ALL of THEM! BTW, if you check your name, as in comments by, you will find you have inserted an extra "e" before the "t" in steve!

As a leftist, there are no remaining concievable options open to you to convince me that you're even capable of rational thought (what rational person ever became a leftist?)
However, because I am a kind and considerate person (example: I've pointed out several times to you that you're a moron, which is something you're obviously too stupid to realize for yourself), I will break it down to you clearly:
Berkowitz was adopted by a Jewish family. He wasn't a Jewish birth. He claimed to be a member of a Satanic cult at the time of his murder spree. He now claims to be a born again Christian.
Regardless, during his murder spree, not once did Berkowitz make financial or political demands. He had no agenda. He was simply a sadistic killer spurred on by a mental illness.
On the other hand, John Allen Muhammad, a Muslim convert, is a member of Jamaat al-Fuqra', a militant Muslim organization tied to several assassination and terrorist acts. Muhammad made financial demands, upon arrest he referred to Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden as inspirations, and later his agenda seemed to be constructing distractions / practice runs for shooting his ex-wife.
I will not argue that a serial killer like Berkowitz is not a terrorist, however lacking the agenda and political / financial motivations of Muhammad, he doesn't fit the standard definition of "terrorist."
No one is arguing that Berkowitz is not a "terrorist." But he wasn't Jewish. He claimed Satanism. Call him a "Satanic terrorist."
John Allen Muhammad has no qualms being labelled a "Muslim" or a "terrorist." Especially claiming Osama Bin Laden inspires him.
I realize that as a leftist, you're physically incapable of providing evidence of brain activity within your skull, but damn. Try. - 3:23:00 PM

am i too late for the grubs?
dayam! and i brought the wasabi...
oh, um, cocktails anyone? - 3:23:00 PM

and what party would be complete without the pooper uu?
- beakerkin said...
Florian has produced the quote it indeed mentions a hote. You lied about the hotel part and you are history.
You did not honor your own words. As far as calling other people LIARS look in the miror.
The quote is textbook sexual harassment and if you can not understand that then you are a moron. - 3:24:00 PM
Nanc- I'll have a tall, stiff marguarita, thank you very kindly, ma'am!

You are a liar.
Muhammad was NEVER a member of Jamaat Al-Fuqra.
Some rightwing organizations "theorized" that he was since the Islam offhot consists mainly of African American ex-cons but several investigations by federal and state law enforcement agencies never found any evidence of his membership. - 3:46:00 PM
- beakerkin said...
Here comes the vacum
Uptown say good bye .I will leave the post below.
Ducky your post about La Shawn is also deleted. In your case that quote is heresay - 3:48:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
LaShawn Barber hates being black and she hates black people, particularly men.
She claimed to me that black men actually came to her home and harassed her because her politics.
She regularly goes on rants about how brutal and violent black men are.
She's a typical rightwinger.
She can dish out the venom and vitriol all day long, 7 days a week but whines like a toddler the second someone gets up in her face. - 3:50:00 PM

Uppity: Yes! - 3:55:00 PM
- beakerkin said...
Your comments about La Shawn should be dealt with La Shawn. I am certain that she doesn't hate being black and that is speculation on your part. I hate violent Black men and Withe ones too the key word is violent. I have no reason to doubt her honesty
but plenty of reasons to doubt yours. - 3:55:00 PM
- John Brown said...
Is there be a bigger idiot in the world than CENSORMAN?
I mean, for the love of God, do you just paste the same bullshit over and over again. Mindless tripe: 'leftist' this 'leftist' that. What an idiot?
Do you pay a therapist to remain such a numb, foolish, servile stooge to torture, murder, BringItOn and his Nazi family? It takes a great deal of skill to remain as stupid as you do while consciously ignoring the day's news every day?
I guess you take your lessons from BringItOn, huh? Mindless repitition of meaningless words... absence of coherent or rational thought... detachment from reality.
Yep: you two are like twins, CENSORMAN. - 4:13:00 PM
- John Brown said...
Yeah, Toady... you're a real opponent of violence.
That is, unless fascist little BringItOn fabricates a war and slaughters hundreds of thousands of people - murdering pregnant women, slaughtering unarmed civilians in massacres, capping the handicapped, flattening hospitals - with chemical and nuclear weapons.
You opppose violence but not Uncle Sam's little torture chambers and rape rooms. Presumably, they're non-violent, right.
You're sure a paragon of consistency. - 4:19:00 PM
- beakerkin said...
John Brown
The answer to the above question is yes and you see him everytime you look in the mirror. - 4:19:00 PM
- FLORIAN said...
So who's posts got deleted? Did uppy get banned? Aaaahh! Another Troll abortion!
La Shawn has never said anything about hating being black. Give me a break. In fact she has said numerous times on her blog that she cares more about blacks than anybody else. Duh!
Hell, I bet uptight Steve was one of those militant black women-abusers who showed up at her front door to harrass her. She lives right around the corner from him almost. - 5:16:00 PM

Who in the world is "Bring it on"?
I'm out of the loop on this one. - 5:20:00 PM

Ok gotcha! He needs to get that Bring it on mentality back to the WH damnit. He's pussed out since the last election.
- nanc said...
well then beak - you'll probably want to delete mine on the mental illness post...but, mind you - roberta didn't delete it when i used it at fpm. it was much later when i was banned for telling toilet paper jokes with correction fluid, i believe...
- MissingLink said...
Tassies love their road kill mature, full of natural fragrance.
Felis is a big fan of Possum. We will have to do with racoon, rabbit etc.
It all sounds delicious.
Now you got me salivating.
Oh, Warren!
don't shoot those bunnies with your .50 rifle. - 6:32:00 PM
That wouldn't be roadkill, Felis! Besides there would be nothing left to eat if he used the 50!
tmw - 7:02:00 PM

Merry Widow,
I know that..but y'know what if he shoots 'em on the road??
nothing left to eat if he used the 50!
Yeah, ever tried canned bunnies in spray? - 7:06:00 PM

bunny whiz?
More like BAM, especially for dieters, you can spray it on bread for a sandwich with lettuce and maders!
tmw - 8:22:00 PM
- uptownseteve said...
How do you feel about violent white guys? - 8:46:00 PM
- Warren said...
Missinglink said,
"Oh, Warren!
don't shoot those bunnies with your .50 rifle."
Awww, I wasn't aiming at em, Just a few shots over their heads to get their attention! - 8:55:00 PM
- beakerkin said...
The point was covered in the original post I do not like violent people regardless of race.
This is another example of the banal word games.
Florian has invited you so take the hint and go. - 9:02:00 PM
- Elmer's Brother said...
We'll try to remember that you are just a simple farmer. A person of the land. The common clay of the earth. You know...a moron.
- Mr. Beamish the Instablepundit said...
I see I've rattled LoBrow's cage. Pity. Does wittle boobie wants a num-num? Awwwww.
Take the Beamish challenge. Name a leftist icon that wasn't / isn't an idiot. - 12:13:00 AM
Warren- Would the sonic wave kill the little boogers, I wonder? Clapping your hands near a misquito(sic) does kill them. (Brain refuses to engage!) Shooting right above thier heads should do it. Just watch out for EB, sometimes he runs around in his Energizer Bunny costume and I don't want to travel to Arizona for a funeral!
tmw - 6:47:00 AM
- Elmer's Brother said...
tmw - I am pretty fast.
- Robert Bayn said...
Beak, name the time and place and we can work on that, i speak to Justin virtually everyday over the phone, so just let us know when and where.
- beakerkin said...
I will prepare a special set of questions to promote your new blog.
It is not exactly a Hot Seat interview . The questions will be more blog and fun focused.
I am thinking about a Hot Seat alternative interview as your blog does also deal with Pop Culture.
This will be almost entirely fun based humorous interview with a little dash of the funnier side of politics.
Let me know when both of you are ready. - 7:55:00 PM

I often think of Rid**** Bowe-Andrew Golota II and the absolute pasting Rid**** took. His corner would have been justified in my opinion in getting him out of there as early as round 2 because Rid**** simply couldn't defend himself from any punches. Sure he fought back because he's competitive and because he's brave and eventually he did get the "W" on his record but at what cost? His health and career was essentially ruined by what transpired that night and his corner was complicit in that as far as I'm concerned.
I doubt it would have happened with Eddie Futch in the corner.
Eddie loved his fighters, and he wasn't operating under the laughable delusion most have that boxers are "gladiators". It's a damn sport, and a damn business.
Work hard, train hard, fight hard, but if you are getting hurt, something is going wrong.
I think this is something that is wrong with athletics today. We push kids way to hard. Have a little buddy who used to come to my gym, played QB for a local high school football team. Wanted to go to college, all that, coach rode his ass, he played his ass off, he blows his ACL! He gets surgery, gets back on the field in 4 months, he blows it again! Kid needs a cane!
It's just crazy. Oscar did it right. He didn't sustain any mean damage, he always worked hard and brought it (He even trained hard for Sturm, he just had no idea how to be bigget and fit at the same time, needed some help.)
He was a stud, he achieved a ton, he made a ton of money, and he can still speak and think. Rate anything on him you like, but what cannot be underrated is just how much Oscar De La Hoya won at BOXING.

The timeless boyhood adventures of a mischievous lad in 19th-century New England, in a new edition for today's readers.
In 1869 Thomas Bailey Aldrich introduced to American literature the original "bad boy"--that all-American boy who plays harmless pranks, devises exciting adventures, has an occasional bout of love-sickness, is bored on Sundays, and is well-liked by almost everyone. Later followed by Mark Twain's The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Story of a Bad Boy--once called the first truly American novel--is Aldrich's partially autobiographical tale of growing up in America. Set in Rivermouth (based on Aldrich's childhood home in Portsmouth, New Hampshire), it follows the exploits of young Tom Bailey through snowball wars, schoolyard fights, Fourth of July parades, adventures at sea, and childhood sweathearts. Now printed in more than fifty editions and read and beloved by Americans for over a century, Aldrich's classic is ready to be rediscovered by a new generation of readers.
THOMAS ALDRICH BAILEY (1836-1907), a native of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, was editor of such publications as Atlantic Monthly and the New York Illustrated News. A poet and writer, he was also the author of many novels and volumes of verse. A.B. FROST (1851-1928), a renowned and prolific American artist of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, illustrated over ninety books and created hundreds of paintings and prints. DAVID WATTERS, Professor of English at the University of New Hampshire, is the author of books and articles on New England gravestone carving, literature, and history. |

You can currently watch Twitch streams on your phone, but actual broadcasting of mobile games from a handheld device? Not so much. That functionality will be possible with the arrival of the Twitch Mobile Software Development Kit, announced this morning.
The SDK will enable users to capture and broadcast gameplay audio and video of mobile software; video from their device's front-facing camera; and audio from an internal or external mic.
Mobile does seem like an obvious step forward for Twitch but I'm not entirely sure how this will play out. Given the company's past successes, probably quite well.

dc.description.abstract | This paper focuses on developing a business model that explains why certain companies would bundle their products with donations to charity. The model assumes that consumers are individuals that maximize their utility subject to their income and companies are agents that maximize their profts subject to prices and costs. The type of firm that we will focus on will be the monopoly. We will investigate the different situations where a monopoly might choose to engage in charity-linked product bundling and look at several factors that may lead to their decision to do so. These factors include: small vs. large prices, homogeneous vs. heterogeneous populations, and strong vs. weak consumer preferences for charitable donations. In the end, the model shows when a why a firm would choose to market a charity-linked product, even when it is the firm who pays for the entire price of the donation. | en_US |

Professor Brian Wynne, vice chairman of a steering group set up by the Food Standards Agency to gauge the public mood on genetically modified (GM) food, has resigned in protest at the use of taxpayer's money to promote pro-GM 'propaganda'.
In an article printed in the Daily Telegraph today (2 June 2010), Professor Wynne said the public consultation was "rigged" from the start in favour of the controversial new technology. Prof Wynne, a sociologist at Lancaster University, is the country's leading expert on public engagement with science and has also advised House of Lords and EU committees. He was vice chairman of a steering group of 11 experts appointed by the FSA in November 2009 to begin a dialogue with the public on the growing use of genetically modified crops in our food. Prof Wynne said within a few months it became clear that the consultation was "rigged" to soften up public opinion on GM. "Apparently No. 10 was lobbied by the food industry on GM, the so-called public dialogue was agreed to and passed onto the FSA," he said. Prof Wynne resigned when it became clear that the consultation was biased in favour of GM. He said that the focus on science rather than corporate control of seeds, environmental concerns or food safety meant that the concerns of the public will not be heard. Earlier in the week another member of the group Dr Helen Wallace, director of the non-governmental organisation Genewatch, resigned in protest at the FSA's allegedly close links with the agri-chemical industry. "Taxpayers will be shocked that the FSA is blowing public money on a PR exercise on behalf of GM companies," she said.

Plymouth Volare Replacement Exhaust Manifold Information
The Plymouth Volare was a popular compact car that was sold as a coupe, sedan, or station wagon from 1976 until 1980. This car was built to provide drivers with a safe and smooth ride wherever they needed to go. The Volare uses an internal combustion engine that creates a significant amount of exhaust gasses during normal operation. The exhaust manifold is a metal component that is attached to the cylinders of the engine.
This piece has one metal pipe attached to each cylinder and all of the pipes join together after taking exhaust off of the engine. This is the first part of the exhaust system that is responsible for taking gas and noise from the engine and delivering it out through the tailpipe. Exhaust manifolds can wear out and develop problems over time and need to be changed. Replacement Volare exhaust manifolds are available online through Parts Geek.
They are available for the following Plymouth Volare years: 1979, 1978, 1977, 1976, 79, 78, 77, 76. This part is also sometimes called Plymouth Volare Exhaust Manifolds. We stock exhaust manifold parts for most Plymouth models including Breeze, Valiant, Neon, Voyager, Duster, Scamp, Barracuda, Laser, Colt, Grand Voyager, Acclaim, Fury, Sundance, Fury III, Satellite, Belvedere, Reliant, Savoy, Trailduster, Gran Fury, Fury II, Suburban, Fury I, PB350, Fleet Special, Sport Wagon, PB300, PB100 Van, PB200 Van, PB150, PB250, Custom, PB100 and PB200.

This work is aimed at experimentally exploring the effects of minor compositional variables upon the combustion behavior of composite solid propellants. More specifically, it is intended to determine the influence, if any, of ingredients that improve the mechanical properties upon the oscillatory combustion characteristics. Tests are carried out in the familiar Crawford bomb, a low-pressure L^* burner, and a high-pressure T-burner. Two families of propellants are investigated; each family consists of two propellants with a minor compositional variation between them. In the family that shows a decreasing (steady state) pressure index (n) with increasing pressures, all of the combustion characteristics are found to be very similar although the mechanical properties are widely different. In the other family, which shows an increasing n with increasing pressures, unmistakable differences are found between the two propellants in the low-pressure L ^* instability behavior (along with the differences in the mechanical properties), while the other combustion characteristics are almost identical. The results are interpreted to be consistent with a theory that highlights the importance of condensed phase heat-transfer effects.

I have a 1999 Silverado z71 i just got and i have noticed when you put it in reverse it has a "clunking" noise coming from the TC. This noise also occurs sometimes when i am going down the road and the truck shifts i will hear it (not as loud as reverse). The TC leaks on the front seal where the rear drive shaft goes in but i know there is fluid in there because i have checked it. I was told by a mechanic that the chains are getting worn out inside (after only 126k miles) he said additive may help. What do you guys think? should i chance additive or get it rebuilt so i don't get stranded when it decides to go south? I have a hard time believing the chains get worn out after 126k miles.
The 99-02 came with the NP246 TC, They are chain driven cases, It does sound like your chain has stretched or your U joints are bad. I see alot of bad U joints diagnosed as bad T case's and rear ends. I don't trust 95% of the repair shops out there. If your chain is stretched, go ahead and have it rebuilt. As for your @ only 126k miles. It depends on how the truck has been treated. You can tear something up in 5k miles if your try. Its all about how something is cared for. If you beat the piss out of something, you are going to break things.
id check u joints before tearing into the T-case. 126 k I could see a u joint. the T-case needing a rebuild already? not as much. u joints are easy to check anyhow. if it were me, id start there. Alex
thanks for the reply. The original owner was a retired guy who drove it back and forth to the Refinery everyday. The whole truck is in excellent condition there is no rust or anything. Tonight after work i am going to check the U Joints hopefully i luck out and thats the problem.
Keep us posted on what you find. Sounds like your truck was well cared for. I have 416k miles on my 99 and I've never had trouble out of my T case, But it's on it's 5th set of U joints. I just put a set in my 07 @ 120k miles.
The U joints are fine.. clunking is coming from transfer case i raised it up on the lift at work i guess i'll have it rebuilt
Well i got a chain and bearing kit put in my transfer case and the good news it needed done because it was wearing the inside of the case. The bad news is it still clunks pretty loud when i put it in reverse. :grrrrrr: While they was in the transfer case they re balanced my drive shaft and put all new u joints in along with an output bushing.

The Healthcare Quality Improvement Act of 1986 ("HCQIA") is a federal law enacted to establish a national tracking system of healthcare practitioners with a history of medical malpractice payments or adverse actions. A significant provision of the law provides immunity from civil money damages for those who participate in hospital peer review process, including members of the medical staff. In June 2013, the Louisiana Supreme Court, determined that a hospital was not eligible for HCQIA immunity, and therefore subject to damages, because it failed to provide adequate due process during a peer review activity and failed to follow its medical staff bylaws. The situation is a familiar one: a surgeon, an adverse event, a heated exchange of blame between the surgeon and the nursing staff, and a hospital too eager to see the surgeon go. The essential facts are equally familiar: a patient was injured, the treating surgeon was temporarily suspended (without fair notice or fair hearing) and ordered to attend anger management courses. When the surgeon did not attend the courses, his medical staff privileges were terminated and he was not afforded a post-suspension/termination hearing (as provided for in the medical staff bylaws). The case, Granger v. CHRISTUS Health Central Louisiana d/b/a CHRISTUS St. Francis Cabrini has national significance for two reasons. First, the case comprehensively examines the federal HCQIA immunity provisions and essentially determines that any adverse credentialing result qualifies as a Professional Review Action versus a mere Professional Review Activity. The distinction is important because Professional Review Actions must meet federal requirements to qualify for HCQIA immunity. Second, Granger further shifts the balance of case law in favor of the proposition that medical staff bylaws are a contract; the position embraced by Florida courts for more than thirty years. Accordingly, all hospitals and their medical staffs are on notice that failure to: (1) provide adequate due process; and (2) comply with the hospital's medical staff bylaws during the peer review process, can limit HCQIA immunity and expose the hospital to a significant adverse judgment.

Hi everybody!
I try to get OpenMPI and Globus to cooperate. These are the steps i executed in order to get OpenMPI working:
export PATH=/opt/openmpi/bin/:$PATH
checking for mpiexec... /opt/openmpi/bin//mpiexec
checking for mpirun... /opt/openmpi/bin//mpirun
find-fork-tools: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating fork.pm
restart VDT (includes GRAM, WSGRAM, mysql, rls...)
As you can see the necessary OpenMPI-executables are recognized correctly by setup-globus-job-manager-fork. But when i actually try to execute a simple mpi-program using globus-job-run i get this:
globus-job-run localhost -x '(jobType=mpi)' -np 2 -s ./hypercube 0
[hydra:10168] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_init_stage1.c at line 312
It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort.Ā There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or
environment problems.Ā This failure appears to be an internal failure;
here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an
Open MPI developer):
Ā orte_pls_base_select failed
Ā --> Returned value -1 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS
[hydra:10168] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_system_init.c at line 42
[hydra:10168] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_init.c at line 52
Open RTE was unable to initialize properly.Ā The error occured while
attempting to orte_init().Ā Returned value -1 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS.
The MPI-program itself is okey:
which mpirun && mpirun -np 2 hypercube 0
Process 0 received broadcast message 'MPI_Broadcast with hypercube topology' from Process 0
Process 1 received broadcast message 'MPI_Broadcast with hypercube topology' from Process 0
>From what i read in the mailing list i think that something is wrong with the pls and globus. But i have no idea what could be wrong not to speak of how it could be fixed ;). so if someone would have an idea how this could be fixed, i'd be glad to hear it.

Check This Out! Nascar: Fdny Racing
FDNY Racing has the heart despite odds against them
Retired New York police and fire make up race-day crew
By Raygan Swan, NASCAR.COM
July 22, 2007
In rural Concord, N.C., a gravel road takes you to a storied engine shop where behind it is a small garage cluttered with car parts and what looks to be racing relics.
An industrial-size fan blows around hot, dusty air from the humid summer day outside.
Inside, three men dressed in tattered blue jeans and worn tennis shoes are gathered under the hood of a race truck toiling to beat the odds.
Odds that say they have no business or realistic expectations of finding success in the ever increasing competitive arena of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, where racing purists have become myths and grass-roots is a term overused in press releases.
Try telling that to Jim Rosenblum, owner of the No. 28 Chevrolet piloted by Brandon Knupp, who after a handful of failed and costly attempts to make races this season, is still in it to win it.
During his latest attempt at the Kentucky Speedway, the team didn't even make it to qualifying in light of back-to-back crashes in practice. The first was driver error, however the second came when the No. 21 of Jon Wood, who was returning to the track after a leave from driving due to health issues, took the air off of Knupp's truck and spun him out, Rosenblum said.
"We were able to put the truck back together the first time, but the second time sent us packing, we had to head home," said Rosenblum, 67, who in 2005 cashed in his life insurance policy to keep racing.
Most team owners in his situation would've packed it up long ago, but this New York native and Truck Series pioneer has the heart of a lion, but seemingly a head of straw.
"Yeah I'm not too bright," he laughed. "You know with drugs they have rehab, but they don't offer rehab for NASCAR so ..."
So Rosenblum, once a fairly successful Cup team owner in the 80s and 90s squeezed out by big spenders and bigger sponsors, will head back to the shop with his undying optimism still intact.
As will the three-man crew, or four if you count Knupp, who also works to prepare, or repair in this case, his truck for race day.
The backbone of Rosenblum's team, FDNY Racing, is the Rahilly brothers Dick and Bob, independent engine builders (RAHMOC Racing Engines) for smaller NASCAR series, Late Model and Modified teams.
They too were Cup owners in the late 70s and all through the 80s, who found substantial success with Neil Bonnett and the Valvoline machine, but the team hung it up after increasing cost and competition forced them out.
Dick Rahilly, crew chief and engine builder for the No. 28 truck, characterizes FDNY Racing's effort as, "true grass-root stock car racing the way it used to be; not about money, merchandising or sales.
"It's why everybody originally got into stock racing for and that is to work together with people, work hard and try to come up with some success on the racetrack," he said. "Too many times, teams, in order to get a lot of money, overstate what they are selling and can't deliver. We do this with little to no resources."
Rahilly's team, whose race-day crew is made up of retired New York City police officers and firefighters, haven't competed full time in the Truck Series for several seasons due to the lack of sponsor dollars, but the team did make the Daytona race this season, qualified 18th but failed to finish.
The situation they face is bleak to say the least. If they make the race, the team is overjoyed, while a percentage of the other teams are disappointed with finishes outside the top 10.
"Unfortunately for us, the Truck Series has stepped up so much, there are no more ill-prepared trucks, even trucks that run in the mid-pack are excellent," Rahilly said. "The competition is stiff right now. Success for us is making the race and finishing on the lead lap."
Outsiders looking in might say FDNY Racing is spinning their wheels but they are certainly making their mark in the sport.
David Ragan, now a full-time Cup driver for Roush Fenway Racing who replaced Mark Martin, got his start with FDNY Racing in 2005 in the season-opening Florida Dodge Dealers 250 at Daytona.
Rahilly said Ragan was third quickest on the speed chart during practice and NASCAR inspectors were completely bemused and went over the truck like blood hounds on a trail.
"We weren't supposed to run like that, that well," he said. "So we get a crumb or two here and there. We can claim David Ragan got his start with us and something really great came out of our tiny garage."
Rationalizing an irrational act might be a fitting description for FDNY Racing. Rahilly has discouraged Rosenblum from the Truck Series and has suggested downsizing to a smaller series.
"But you can't deny the man of his wishes," Rahilly added, "it's NASCAR or nothing.
"In Charlotte last year, the truck qualified but our driver knocked the wall down and Jim was still smiling," he said. "You can't knock the smile off this man's face, even if the truck blows up, catches on fire, if it wrecks ... we are still going to eat dinner after the race and have a good time."
You don't miss dinner, said fabricator and mechanic Vince Lopez.
"That's almost as important as being at the track," he said. "Once our driver ate without us and he got scaled."
The team is not bitter about their situation and they realize racing is survival of the fittest.
A number of teams were in their situation, Rahilly said, prior to Toyota entering the Truck Series. Several teams were struggling just to get in races and were essentially forced out by bigger budget teams. To hang on and stay on the scene, FDNY Racing runs a partial schedule. If they tried to run a full schedule, they would be out of money by the fourth race.
"Bobby Allison I believe coined the phrase 'Automobile racing is one of the easiest professional sports to get into, but one of the hardest to stay in'," Rahilly said. "We know that all too well."
Driving back to New York, Rosenblum said the team will bang out the damage on the No. 28 and prepare to qualify for the July 27th race in Indianapolis at O'Reilly Raceway Park.
You can count him down, but down count him out.

Once at the cliff top, 1st rap continues slightly to the skier's right (climber's left). On the second rap, 2 out of 3 times I've seen the falling rope jam about 40 feet up. Perhaps pull ropes from climber's left of the anchor? |
By LeeAB Administrator From: ABQ, NM Aug 3, 2008 |
If you are comfortable scrambling about on decent sized ledges, maybe 3-4' wide, you can do the approach rappels on a single 70m rope, you only have to scramble maybe 10-15' to your right and down at the end of the second rappel. |

The US Forest service has done a "great" job obscurring the faint cut off trail that leads to the start of the downhill section of the watch tower trail. Will need to keep a sharp eye for the trail that keeps on the very edge of the crest. There is now an old metal boundry sign leaned against the large rock marking the start of this trail. |
By Alam Aug 7, 2011 |
There is a new bolted route directly below the 1st belay of excalibur clear to the ground. Anyone know the details? The presence of the fixed rope suggest efforts are still ongoing - perhaps details when it is finished? Thanks We removed some additional blocks above the roof on P4 of Seven... still some loose stuff there, but the other piches are very solid rock. Check at the damage from the HUGE rockfall between watch tower and Tombstone! |
By John Kear From: Albuquerque, NM Aug 13, 2011 |
Alam The new route just below Excalibur is the first pitch of watchman's secret. This pitch goes up under excalibur than crosses over underneath heading out right to a bolted belay well right of the excalibur and cry for Merlin's anchors. This first pitch is about 10b/c good and very technical for the grade. |
By Marc Ripperger From: Albuquerque, NM Sep 6, 2011 |
You no longer have to do the Seventh Sojourn raps. The new rap route descends the Watchman's Secret. (3) 70m bolted raps take you to the base. These are clean and quick raps. From the top of the formation simple look skiers left and there is a 15 meter fixed line from 2 pitons down to the first set of anchors. Enjoy |

In one of his last acts, president nominated Donald Alsop to bench.
Facing impeachment and a possible criminal indictment, Richard M. Nixon knew on Aug. 8, 1974, that the following day he would resign the presidency.
But in those waning hours before his political power vanished, Nixon made three final court nominations. Among them was Donald Alsop, a New Ulm attorney who would be elevated to Minnesota's U.S. District Court.
Alsop got word of the nomination that day, then went home to watch the man who nominated him go on television and tell the nation from the Oval Office that he would end his presidency the next day, brought down by the scandal of Watergate.
"It was a momentous event," Alsop said of the resignation, surveying a spread of newspapers he collected from that day, with their towering "Nixon Resigns" headlines.
Alsop, now 86, has served as a federal judge ever since, rising to chief and presiding over such high profile cases as the Virginia Piper kidnapping, which involved a $1 million ransom for an Orono woman, and the Dalkon Shield lawsuit.
He owes his career to Nixon's last-minute efforts and a stroke of bipartisan help from a trio of Minnesota heavyweights: Democratic Senators Hubert H. Humphrey and Walter Mondale and Republican Rep. Ancher Nelsen.
"What we did back then with Alsop, you wouldn't hardly see anymore," Mondale said.
Alsop doesn't know why Nixon turned to sign his nomination on his last full day as president — it "was the last thing on his plate," Alsop said — and can only speculate about his good fortune. He said Time Magazine reported Nixon did it to show the government was still running. Nixon historian Stanley Kutler said he's surprised the nominations even went through, because Nixon "was a cooked goose at that time."
A different era
In earlier years, Alsop was active in the Republican Party and in 1968 was a delegate to the Republican National Convention and co-chaired the Republican state convention in Duluth the same year. He was offered the post of Minnesota U.S. Attorney that year, but declined. When Alsop got serious about aiming for a judgeship, he swore off politics and as Watergate gathered strength, took no sides for fear of jeopardizing his chances.
Alsop said it was Nelsen who first nudged Nixon to make the appointment. In Alsop's office hangs a photo that Alsop said captured Nelsen as he was speaking to Nixon, trying to convince him to nominate Alsop from among the 21 Minnesota lawyers vying for the spot.
But Nelsen, as a House member, could only do so much. Only senators vote to confirm.
Judge John Tunheim, who now serves on the Minnesota U.S. District Court, was an intern in Humphrey's Washington office during the fall of that year. He remembers the question buzzing around the office. Alsop was nominated but not confirmed. What should they do with him? Tunheim said Humphrey and his administrative assistant, David Gartner, wanted to be fair and continue working for Alsop's confirmation.
Humphrey and Mondale worked to shepherd the Nixon appointee through the Senate confirmation process, even offering a resolution to extend his nomination when a congressional recess could have let it expire. The Senate, controlled by Democrats, confirmed Alsop on Dec. 18, 1974. He started on the bench the following month.
A less polarized time
Mondale said Alsop was known as a good trial lawyer and turned out to be "one of the strong judges of our time." Even back then, the sweeping approval across party lines for judge candidates was rare, Mondale said.
"There were very few nominations that had the kind of broad, bipartisan support that Alsop did," Mondale said.
Humphrey's son, Hubert "Skip" Humphrey III, said the bipartisan support defined a less polarized time. "In those days, at least people respected their qualities and their abilities," he said. "It was much less partisan than it appears to be in these days."

WB: Honestly, I think you can do whatever you want with a guy like Melvin Ingram. He can do whatever he wants. http://www.cowboysnation.com/2011/12/new-greg-ellis-wes-bunting-breaks-down.htmlsign me up
The selling point on Ingram is his unbelievable athleticism for a guy that is built like him (a tank). I think he COULD excel where Spencer can't because of that fact alone (Spencer just seems really stiff in his motions).
Right now Ingram and Upshaw looks like the only 3-4 SOLBs that can come in and start day one. Andre Branch is another interesting player.
Janoris Jenkins is the other player I would want. Jenkins can man an island. Ryan has to have that due to the blitzes he likes to send. Remember the Giants game when we sent 7-8 so EIl just threw it up to the WR that was playing Newman. Thats why you need a Revis, Nnamdi type CB. SOme one who can play man and mirror every move of a WR so that pass cannot get completed. I like DeCastro but I think a CB or OLB(if Spencer leaves) is a higher priorty. I can still find a starting caliper OG in the 2nd and 3rd but I can't find a day one SOLB pass rusher or a mirror CB in the 2nd or 3rd.
I guess it's what you value in the draft . Oline has been a problem for the last several years . I'm ready to see it fixed . DeCastro is the only lineman that I would pick in the first though . He should be gone by the time the Cowboys pick . If not , I would pick him and spend the rest of the draft on defense . If he is gone , I would look at Ingram , Upshaw or Jenkins in the first and Konz or Brandon Washington in the second . So much of the draft will depend on resigning Spencer .
who ever we draft or whatever to play across from ware he needs to have a high motor and be relentless, that is spencer's problem. He gives up easily when his first move is blocked. He kinds of look like he is just mirroring the qb. He has passrush moves of a NT.:laugh2:
I agree, the draft depends on what Jerry wants to do with 18-20 million available in the salary cap. If they sign Carl Nicks and Calais Campbell and resign Spencer then you go into the draft with not that many needs and can almost go BPA.
yep thats what free agency is for. The following are guys I would look at spending 20 million on this offseason. Now I know we wont get all of them these are just names of the players I like. Carl Nicks Calais Campbell Anthony Spencer Dashon Goldston Laurant Robinson and on NT below Sione Pouha Antonio Garay Paul Soliai
out of your list give me Nicks, campbell, and the best NT. Then in the draft go OLB or CB or even safety if someone rise to the first round. Ill take robinson if he isn't looking for a crazy contract (which he might be, which is why he might not be back in dallas).
He looks like a freakishly athletic brute in highlight films. 8.5 sacks. 13.5 TFL. 2 INTs. In 2010 he had 9 sacks and 11 TFL. I'll take him.
You take him and don't look back...guards are easy to come by in free agency or second or third rounds....a great pass rusher is VERY hard to find.
I like Ingram a lot, but when did he become this supposed elite pass rusher? Also, the Gamecocks had him playing a lot with his hand on the ground against gaurds, and at 6'2" 270ish, he was quicker than most of them. I don't think he's some phenomenal athlete in general though. I'll be interested in seeing his shuttle and 10-yard split numbers.
I've never seen him play, so I'm judging from stats and highlights, but he looks strong and athletic to me, especially on those couple INTs. Like I say, though--I've never seen him play.

Cooking for one is not always all that fun. It can be a challenge and you always take of chance of what your making not turning out as well if you hadn't messed with the recipe. I decided that a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich sounded pretty good and I knew wouldn't be hard to scale down for just one person. If your wondering why I'm cooking for one, no, I did not send Grumpy packing....at least not permanently. ;o) Our new lifestyle requires that I have to eat dinner on my own sometimes....and this happened to be one of those times!
The sandwich turned out pretty darn good if I do say so myself! Now when I have a craving for a Philly Cheesesteak type sandwich, this is where I will turn. I think Grumpy would like this one too! If you try it, let me know what you thought!
Quick and Easy Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches
Makes 1 sandwich
1 multi-grain ciabatta roll
I Can't Believe its Not Butter Spray
Cooking Spray
2 miniature red bell peppers (or 1/4 cup regular pepper slices), sliced
1/8 cup sliced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
pinch of oregano
1 ounce Velveeta Cheese, cubed
3 ounces lean deli roast beef slices (I always buy Boars Head London Broil Deli Meat)
2 tablespoons (or more if you wish) Beef Broth
Heat oil in small skillet. Cook peppers, onions, and garlic until vegetables are tender. Add vinegar, sugar, oregano, and cheese. Stir mixture and turn heat to simmer to let cheese slowly melt, stirring periodically. Once cheese is melted, remove from heat and set aside until ready to assemble sandwich.
Meanwhile, spray cut sides of roll with butter spray. Place buttered side down on a hot griddle and toast buns until warmed and start to brown.
Place roast beef and beef broth in microwave safe bowl. Microwave in two 30-second intervals. Assemble sandwich - using a fork remove beef from broth and layer on bottom half of bun. Top with cheese pepper mixture and then cover with top bun half. Enjoy!

A woman in Washington state brought her child's birthday cake into a courthouse, thinking that would be safer than leaving it in the car with her dog. She realized her error when a stranger grabbed and ate handfuls of the cake. The chocolate cake passed through a metal detector and was sitting on a table when it was attacked. Cake and frosting went flying when a Cowlitz County sheriff's deputy grabbed the cake molester and took him to the ground. The Daily News of Longview (http://is.gd/OtNaHR ) says more deputies rushed to help Tuesday, only to end up smeared with frosting. Deputy Joe Connor told KATU-TV that 50-year-old Robert Fredrickson was arrested for investigation of third-degree theft. The Daily News says the man had been on his way to a court appearance. A local grocery offered to replace the cake. ___ Information from: The Daily News, http://www.tdn.com Order the Telegram & Gazette, delivered daily to your home or office! www.telegram.com/homedelivery Copyright Worcester Telegram & Gazette Corp. |

By Nature's Bounty
1 Review-
Expiration Date:?Oct 2017
Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.18 lbs (0.08 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Paola Samoa
First of all, our guide was this beautiful Italian girl named Tiziana sp? and she was so good at her job. SO GOOD. She was informative, lively, and was full of anecdotes as well as facts about the history of this place.
Second of all, prepare to save A LOT of room in your camera/phones because you will be taking a lot of photographs here. The interior is INSANELY OPULENT. I wont say anymore, dont want to spoil the surprise.
It was perfect, just as I was expecting.
Fantastic building. Excellent tour. Very informative. Thank you to our charismatic guide :)
Amazing building. Have been to Paris 3 times before and walked past but never been in till now. Definitely worth including on the list of things to do in Paris!!
If you like the Phanton of the Opera this tour is a must.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It was very interesting and so nice to be able to experience the Opera without crowds of people. We were able to really view the opulence of the Opera and hear the very interesting stories from a well informed guide. We would definitely recommend this tour.
It's true, this is a jewel in the middle of Paris many people dismiss. It is beautiful and the guide makes it so much better. The guide was very knowledgable and helps you appreciate the beauty of it much more. Next time in Paris I would love to see a show.
Amazing. Our tour guide met us on time. She was very knowledgeable and spoke very good English. We were a small group of about 16 people which was very nice. The opera house was more beautiful and spectacular than I ever imagined. We experienced a very unexpected treat. The opera was hosting a red carpet event that evening and we were able to watch and listen to the orchestra and singers rehearse Phantom. Imagine walking through the opera house listening to Phantom of the Opera. A WOW moment.
A wonderful way to finish a busy afternoon in Paris. It was lovely having the opera house almost all to ourselves on this tour, and not having to jostle with lots of other people. We were treated to lots of information you would never normally hear, and sights you would miss if you were just strolling through the opera house by yourself. It wears a bit tricky finding our way in, even though we arrived at 4.45 as instructed, as everything in the entrance area as roped off, and we had to keeping explaining we were on a tour, then were let through the roped off zones. At the end of the tour, we finished at the souvenir shop and although the woman there said the shop was open and welcomed everyone in, the shop then closed about 5 min later! You can visit the shop without touring the opera house itself, so I would recommend going to the shop on another day rather than trying to make purchases at the end of the tour.
This was my absolute favorite part of my entire month long European trip. If you can believe, I walked in right as they were performing songs from the Phantom of the Opera, LIVE, with opera singers and a harpist in this beautiful gallery with many chandeliers. When they performed "All I ask of you," I started crying, it was so beautiful. One of the best moments of my entire life, I will never forget it.
I can't remember the name of our guide (she is Dutch - does that help?) but she, too, was everything anyone could want from a tour of the opera. She has a marvelous sense of humor and added a few personal experiences which gave this grand opera house a wonderfully human feel. Superb in every way.
worth every minute! recommend even if you only love Shagal - such a great addition to a magnificient building!
Excellent tour! I loved how it wzs done without the crowds.
This is the one tour I did not make as after the day, which was extremely hot and humid, we were running late and all I wanted was to cool off. My photographer friend, however, jumped on the Metro and got there just as they were closing the doors and she took marvelous pictures. I wished I would have gone, but I can't run like she can and I probably would have arrived after the doors closed. Can't wait to see the pictures.
It was fantastic! My guide was very informative and knew a lot about the history of the Opera Garnier. She even showed us the smaller details that most people miss.

Rath Dínen
Revision as of 18:21, 31 August 2010 by KingAragorn Bot (Talk | contribs)
Rath Dínen was the main street that ran between to the Hallows of Minas Tirith, where the great of Gondor, Kings and Stewards alike, were laid after death.
A steep, winding pathway behind Fen Hollen, in the sixth circle of the City that led down beneath the shadow of Mindolluin to Rath Dínen.
The Street was lined with images of those who lay there. The Stewards had a House apart from the tombs of the Kings, the House of the Stewards, where Denethor perished in Third Age 3019.
When the seedling of the White Tree was found on the slopes of Mindolluin by Gandalf, the Dead Tree that had stood in the courts of Minas Tirith was laid in Rath Dínen.

Ok, now whose falsely advertising? Worlds thinnest smartphone at 7.6mm? Isn't the Moto Razr a smartphone and 7.1mm thick?
