Bumper Crop | ||||||||
Joe R. Lansdale | ||||||||
Golden Gryphon Press, 275 pages | ||||||||
A review by Jayme Lynn Blaschke
I'm a great admirer of Lansdale's writing prowess. That, in a nutshell, is why I'm willing to read
pretty much anything put out under his byline. And he writes some damn horrific stuff, things that
I wouldn't go within a hundred miles of otherwise. But Lansdale has such a natural skill with the
written word that I'm enraptured by the raw elegance of his storytelling down to the sentence
level. He writes with such an unabashed confidence -- treats the most hideous subjects with a
reverent tenderness, shovels the most rancid cow pies with the straightest face -- that there's almost
no way a reader can't fall under his spell.
So what I'm basically saying here is that Bumper Crop is Lansdale's version of a Greatest
Hits album, right? Wrong. High Cotton is his Greatest Hits. Top to bottom, it's a better
book, with better stories. If you don't own it, you should track it down post-haste. What
Bumper Crop amounts to is the literary equivalent of a Best Of record, gathering those
popular album cuts and B-sides that weren't really hits, but have proven their popularity in
workman-like fashion over the long haul. Taken together, the two books comprise a pretty
definitive overview of Lansdale's short fiction career.
The width and breadth of Lansdale's ability isn't quite as apparent here as in that earlier collection,
but it's still impressive. "Cowboy," an urban vignette touching on old west stereotypes, is as
understated and melancholy as they come, with an emotional resonance that lingers far longer
than it takes to read the story. "Fire Dog," on the other hand, is a matter-of-fact sprint of
absurdity, following the career of a man forced to take a job as a fire department's mascot.
Delivered with Lansdale's unflappable, look-you-square-in-the-eye style, the one thing that's
conveyed beyond any doubt is that you do not ever want to play poker against this man. That is,
unless you want to lose.
The surreal "Fish Night" is moody and atmospheric, strongly reminiscent of Steven Utley's 1976
story "Ghost Seas," which explored similar themes in similar fashion. This being a Lansdale story,
however, the reader can be assured that it has got significantly more teeth than the Utley piece. "The
Shaggy House," is a weird adventure that combines elements of Lansdale's "God of the Razor"
cycle of stories with his Something Lumber This Way Comes and even "Bubba Ho-Tep."
Wicked vampire houses would do well to stay on the good side of the geriatric set. "The Man
Who Dreamed" is something of a retelling of the Cassandra myth, as filtered through Ray
Bradbury. It's as effective as it is unpretentious.
A good percentage of the stories are pretty brutal horror tales, made all the more powerful by
contrast with some of the lighter fare here. "God of the Razor" opens the book on a resoundingly
harsh note, with bloody goings-on at the cursed Galveston house featured so prominently in
Lansdale's novel Nightrunners. It's good, but disturbing. "Duck Hunt" is a gruesome
coming-of-age tale, in which a young boy gets more than he bargained for on his rite of passage
hunting trip with his father. "Down By the Sea Near the Great Big Rock" chronicles a happy
family's descent into homicidal madness on what was to be an innocent weekend camping trip.
Sometimes senseless violence can be so, well, senseless, but Lansdale turns a merely
troubling story into one that's downright sinister with an unforseen denouement. The final story,
"Master of Misery," draws heavily on Lansdale's martial arts background for a bare-knuckled take
on "The Most Dangerous Game." The style and tone is reminiscent of "My Steel Valentine,"
collected earlier in High Cotton, but unlike that story, "Master of Misery" boasts no
winners once the fighting is done, only losers.
Longtime fans of Lansdale will most likely already have Bumper Crop, or at least have the
stories collected here in some form or fashion. Newcomers to his work will be better off sampling
High Cotton, since there's a wider range and variety of story on display in that collection.
But for those readers arriving late to the party -- be they casual fans or disciples of Mojo
Storytelling -- well, this book was made for you. For all those reader who've been unable to track
down Lansdale's older collections like Bestsellers Guaranteed and A Fistful of
Stories, again, this book was made for you. It contains some weird stuff and some scary stuff,
but all of it's good stuff. If a hearty dose of Mojo Storytelling is what you've got a craving for,
you've come to the right place.

Abstract | Elite selections of several rice cultivars were evaluated on acidic (pH <5), infertile soils typical of the majority of acidic upland areas. Emphasis was placed on testing early-maturing cultivars to make it feasible to grow sequences of 2-3 crops per year. The selections IR 30716-B-1-B-1-2, IR 3880-2-3, IR 47686-6-2-2-1 and IR 12979-24-1 (Brown) were outstanding in consistency in yield across 5 years of trials, outperforming the released cv. UPL Ri-5, and local cv. Dinorado, Speaker and Kayatan. Tests under farmer management in rice-maize cropping systems confirmed these results. The use of early-maturing and high yielding upland rice cultivars significantly increased the total system productivity by promoting much higher yields of the following maize crop. |

Author Comments
So, this is my entry for the Christmas Mac12! I'm fairly new to recording vocals (as in, this is really my first attempt). My beautiful wife was kind enough to lend me her beautiful voice for this one :) We really rushed to get this done. Had I more time, the quality would have been higher. I should also note that I in no way edited my wife's vocals, just added some reverb and EQ.
Christe Redemptor Omnium (Christ Redeemer of All) is an ancient prayer from the 6th Century that the Church has used ever since. I took an old-timey carol approach for this. I picked this particular prayer, because Advent isn't just a "Hey, let's all be happy about Jesus and Santa and mostly presents" time, it's more of a "Hey, we need to be ready for the end of the world because hopefully Jesus is coming back soon and it will most likely be terrifying but awesome" time.
Salvation's author, call to mind
how, taking the form of humankind,
born of a Virgin undefiled,
Thou in man's flesh became a Child.
All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Iesu, Virgin-born, to Thee;
whom with the Father we adore,
and Holy Ghost forevermore.
Thus testifies the present day
Through every year in long array,
that Thou, salvation's source alone
proceedest from the Father's Throne.
All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Iesu, Virgin-born, to Thee;
whom with the Father we adore,
and Holy Ghost forevermore.
Whence sky, and stars, and sea's abyss,
and earth, and all that therein is,
shall still, with laud and carol meet,
the Author of thine Advent greet.
And we who, by Thy precious Blood
from sin redeemed, are marked for God,
on this, the day that saw Thy Birth,
sing the new song of ransomed earth.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Very pretty, and you struck a nice mixing balance between vocals and instruments. I am not religious, but I still appreciated the beauty of the work and your expression of your own faith.
My one constructive suggestion might be to tinker a bit with the reverb. A song like this cries out to be heard in the acoustics of a monastery, but the reverb here seems a little generic. If your DAW is able, perhaps a more complex reverb setup that mimics a stone building would give it that extra little authentic touch. Still, it's very nice work!
Your wife's vocal quality is lovely; she reminds me a little of Maddy Prior from Steeleye Span, in that group's rendition of Gaudete (on the album Below the Salt).
Thank you kindly for the feedback - I'm happy this piece was able to communicate something of my faith. I'm not particularly good at mixing yet, so the reverb is a bit generic. I'm also using what came with my DAW. I'll pass the compliment on to my wife, and check out the artist you mentioned as well!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Not a religious person but not hurt to listen to amazing music like this. Very outstanding!
Thank you kind sir!

Right when it started i was draw in. I love this type of music and it is so beautiful intsant download.
Thank you! :D Glad you enjoyed it man.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
man you are what i am searching for i was searching classical music but with lyrics and you man are outstanding .it has a religious fell like a angel is singing . very cool hpe to see more
Thanks man! Got some more on the way :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This reminds me of the really really old gregorian chants you'd hear sometimes. Personally, I love those and find them always so beautiful. This is a perfect companion for them.
Your wife also has a beautiful voice. If this is just a rush job though, I'd love to see what a professionally done job would be! 5 out of 5 for me!
:) Thank you! And yes, I'm a big fan of Gregorian chant myself.

Tuesday, 24 May 2011 05:26 PM
After New Jersey's Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered the state spend more on low-income school districts and Gov. Chris Christie agreed not to stand in the way, it's up to state lawmakers to figure out how to do it.
The Democratic-controlled Legislature has just over five weeks to figure out how to reallocate $500 million in the state budget, knowing that the Republican governor is threatening a veto if lawmakers increase taxes to comply with the school funding ruling.
The court's 3-2 decision was the latest in the long-running Abbott v. Burke court battle over how much the state taxpayers must subsidize New Jersey's lowest-income schools. The court has consistently ruled that New Jersey must do more to meet the state constitution's requirement that all children receive a "thorough and efficient" education.
"The harm being visited is not some minor infringement of the constitutional right but a real, substantial, and consequential blow to the achievement of a thorough and efficient system of education to the plaintiff pupils of the Abbott districts," Justice Jaynee LaVecchia wrote in the majority opinion.
It's New Jersey's definitive political and legal issue. It's a reason New Jersey homeowners pay the nation's highest property tax bills, a major factor in why Christie wants to remake the state Supreme Court and has at its heart the vexing problem of how one state can have some of the nation's best and worst school districts.
The court's rulings have led to increased state money for those school districts, often to the detriment of the state's well-regarded suburban public schools. The low-income schools get the majority of the nearly $8 billion a year the school sent to school districts this year — an amount that was cut for the current year amid a budget crunch.
The other districts are left to rely on the nation's highest property taxes for most — and in some cases, nearly all — of their funding.
The rulings also a sore point for conservatives like Christie, who believe the court shouldn't tell the governor and Legislature how to spend tax money.
While Christie said he'd abide by the ruling, he also blasted it.
"I want to make clear to the people of this state that while I do not agree with taking another $500 million of tax revenue and sending it exclusively to 31 districts while leaving out another 550 again for any aid and any help, this is our system and I have a constitutional obligation to comply with what this court has ordered," Christie said at a news conference. "And that is what I'll do."
He spent weeks warning of dire consequences if the court did what the education advocacy group Education Law Center wanted and increased funding to all schools at a cost of about $1.6 billion.
He even mentioned on a radio interview that he would consider defying the court if he disagreed with its ruling. But on Tuesday, he downplayed that it was ever a serious consideration.
Christie said Tuesday he would leave the decision on how to adjust the budget to comply up to the Legislature.
Last year, he cut funding to all the state's schools by a total of about $1 billion — he said the state couldn't afford not to. But he's proposed a $250 million across-the-board increase for the coming school year before Tuesday's ruling.
Since last year, lawmakers have pushed to reinstate a lapsed higher income tax rate on filers who make more than $400,000.
At a town hall meeting Tuesday in Cherry Hill, Christie warned lawmakers: "If I let my foot off their throat on tax increases, on any of them, they're going to come out and grab as much as they can grab," he said. "As they solve the problem of school funding, there is one simple rule: 'Do not raise taxes on the most overtaxed people in the United States of America already.'"
And State Senate President Stephen Sweeney, a Democrat, said Tuesday that that he believes 205 underfunded districts should get more from the state.
Assemblyman Louis Greenwald, also a Democrat, said it's the governor's duty to lay out how he would adjust the proposed budget.
The state League of Municipalities is warning that aid to towns should not be touched.
Coincidentally, the task of finding another $500 million in the state budget just got easier. Last week, Christie's administration told lawmakers that unexpected tax revenue should bring the state more than it was planning for the fiscal year that starts July 1 — about $500 million more. Republican Assemblyman Declan O'Scanlon said that's the money that should be tapped to satisfy the court's order.
Robert Williams, a professor at the Rutgers-Camden Law School and an expert on the state constitution, said it's too cynical to think that the court picked that solution because of the state's windfall. "Those 215 pages took longer than that to write," he said, referring to the voluminous judges' opinions.
LaVecchia was joined by Judge Edwin Stern, a lower-court judge temporarily assigned to the court, and Justice Barry Albin, who also filed a concurring opinion. Justices Roberto Rivera-Soto and Helen Hoens each dissented in separate opinions. Rivera-Soto said one factor was that there were not four members of the court joining in such an important matter.
Chief Justice Stuart Rabner and Justice Virginia Long both recused themselves.
David Sciarra, the executive director of the Education Law Center, said the ruling was a good start. "This creates an opportunity to do what's right for all the school children across New Jersey," he said, and increase state aid to other districts as well.

Lumber Liquidators Holdings Inc. (LL – Snapshot Report) recently reported its third straight quarter with a positive earnings surprise, leading this retailer of hardwood flooring to boost its outlook for the full year. All 11 estimates for 2012 and 2013 have trended higher over the last 30 days.
These strong results pushed this Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) to a 52-week high of $58.80 on October 24. Shares have soared 233.9% year to date.
Fabulous Quarter, Upbeat Guidance
On October 24, Lumber Liquidators reported third quarter earnings of 46 cents per share, topping the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 35.3% and increasing substantially by 91.7% year over year. The improvement got a boost from strategic initiatives by management, including efficient merchandise planning and optimizing the supply chain.
Net sales jumped 18.8% over the prior-year quarter to $204.3 million, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $189 million. Comparable-store sales grew 12% thanks to an 11.7% rise in the number of customers. Gross margin expanded 250 basis points (bps) to 38.1%, benefiting from lower product costs, partially mitigated by a rise in transportation expenses. Operating margin grew 380 bps to 10.2%.
Management raised its full year sales guidance to between $791 million and $799 million from the earlier outlook of $750 million to $775 million. Comparable-store sales are now expected to rise in the mid to high-single digits. Earnings are projected between $1.53 and $1.59 per share, up from the previous range of $1.30 to $1.42. The company expects to open 23 to 25 new stores over the course of the year.
Solid Earnings Estimate Revisions
In the past 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2012 rose 10.3% to $1.60 per share after all 11 estimates were revised higher. This outlook implies year-over-year growth of 72.5%.
All 11 estimates were revised upward for 2013 as well, sending the Zacks Consensus Estimate upward by 14.2% to $2.01 per share. This suggests a year-over-year increase of 25.3%.
Reasonable Valuation
Lumber Liquidators currently trades at a forward P/E of 36.17x, reflecting a 45.4% premium to the peer group average of 24.88x. Also, on a price-to-book basis, shares trade at 7.05x, a substantial premium to the peer group average of 2.54x. Given the company's compelling fundamentals, the premium valuation is justified and well supported by its long-term estimated EPS growth rate of 17.5%, which is in line with the peer group average.
With respect to return on equity (ROE), the stock looks attractive. It has a trailing 12-month ROE of 19.3%, which is above its peer group average of 12.5%. This implies that the company reinvests its earnings more efficiently than its peer group.
Chart Echoing Strength
Shares of Lumber Liquidators are now hovering close to its 52-week high, and has been consistently trading above its 200-day moving average since January 17, 2012. It has also remained above the 50-day moving average since February 23, 2012.
Volume is fairly strong, averaging roughly 612K daily. The year-to-date return for the stock is 233.9% compared with the S&P 500's return of 9.2%.
Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Toano, Virginia, Lumber Liquidators Holdings operates as a multi-channel specialty retailer of hardwood flooring and hardwood flooring enhancements and accessories. The company operated 275 stores across 46 states in the U.S. and 9 outlets in Canada, as of September 30, 2012. Lumber Liquidators, which primarily competes with Lowe's Companies Inc. (LOW – Analyst Report) and The Home Depot Inc. (HD – Analyst Report), has a current market cap of $1.58 billion.

The car is the most popular and most convenient means of transport for many years. The use of a car is easy, but more difficult part in it is to maintain it properly. All components in a car must be in good condition. The oxygen sensor is one of the major components of your emission system. It helps control fuel and ignition systems to run the engine efficiently. Your oxygen sensor monitors air and fuel mixture and guides the engine computer by adjusting the rate of air and fuel.
The Audi A8 oxygen sensor in your Audi car does this action by reacting with oxygen in the exhaust pipe to burn and provide information to the computer. It helps in finding whether the engine is given the right amount of fuel. Usually, the oxygen sensor generate a small voltage signal to indicate the fuel and air mixture. If the fuel and air mixture level goes high, the sensor will increase the signal voltage and drops when the fuel level goes down.
Maintaining your Audi oxygen sensor for the model A8 in a good condition is very much important. The oxygen sensor may get affected by air leaks in the intake or exhaust pipe. This allows the unburned oxygen to get passed through the exhaust. It will result in the false lean indication of the oxygen sensor. If your Audi A8 oxygen sensor sensor is not working properly, you should replace it immediately to protect your engine from getting damaged.
At Car Parts Warehouse, we have a wide selection of OEM and aftermarket parts. All body parts are tested to meet industry standards. We sell quality car parts to our customers. You can easily get Audi car parts at home. With offer car parts at affordable prices. You must choose the model and make the order of your oxygen sensor through our online catalog.

No. Thank YOU! I read your blog everyday, and when you take a break, I long for you to return. I'm nobody but a fellow Texan (I live across 380, south of Denton) who adores you, your style, your travels, your cutie-pie husband, and your "snarky" posts. One day, I might visit you in your store, but for now, I'm the lurker who is tickled to "know" a movie star. Yeah, the news counts as movie star. Happy 2013 Kendi!

You're welcome. There's no shame in wearing the same sweater for 3 days. I've a cold, and I don't have one on me mind you :D PJs is all there is.
ReplyDelete Kendi, your sweet blog is one of the few voices that I feel is consistently genuine - and it's wonderful! Days ebb and flow for everyone and it's so satisfying (and relieving) to see a blogger ebb and flow right along with you. You're a wonderful writer with a sound and balanced approach to sharing your thoughts and threads to the masses.

Sincerely, SYou are such an inspiration. In 2012 I discovered the world of fashion blogs, and besides the fact have spent hours upon hours in front of my computer screen, I am in love.

DON CARLOS backed by The Dub Vision Band
Friday, December 7th
plus PURE ROOTS & DJ SPLEECE
9:00 PM, Doors Open 8:00 PM, $25/30, Day of show tickets are available after 4pm at Moe's or by phone at 831 479-1854
Reggae legend
Don Carlos
returns backed by his full live band DUB VISION and horn section. Special guests PURE ROOTS & DJ SPLEECE support. This is Don's ONLY PERFORMANCE IN THE BAY AREA so buy your tickets in advance for one of Reggae's finest performers.
: DON CARLOS & The Dub Vision Band-LIVE 2011
Don Carlos, born Euvin Spencer, was b
orn and raised in one of the most deprived regions of Western Kingston, Jamaica, in a district notoriously known as
, which incidentally is also a musical spawning ground for many of Reggae's greatest ever talents, such as King Tubby, original member of Black Uhuru, The Jays, Junior Reid and King Jammy to name but a few, Don Carlos started his singing career back in 1973, as one of the original members of the aforementioned roots vocal group Black Uhuru. Alongside other founding members, Garth Dennis who later went on to joining the Wailing Souls and Derrick Ducky Simpson Uhuru's central figure, as part of the trio, Don played a prominent role in the recordings of the highly acclaimed Love Crisis album, for producer Prince Jammy in 1977. The said album was later re-released and re-titled as Black Sounds of Freedom. A year after the trio's ground breaking debut, Don Carlos surprisingly decided to part company in pursuit of a solo career. Having needed at least three years to get the grips of being a soloist, plus developing a knack for song writing and grooming that distinctive, vocal styling it wasn't until May 1981 that Carlos really took the fraternity by storm, courtesy of a heavy, roots and culture flavored show case album titled Suffering for Negus Roots.
Since then working alongside Goldie, his side kick, co writer and back up vocalist having built and consolidated a staunch following through touring the live circuit, plus 12 solo albums, most notably
Harvest Time
Day to Day Living
Them Never Know a Natty Dread
have credentials all three issued in 1982,
Spread Out
1982 also otherwise known as
Laser Beam
to which the majority of tracks in this set have been culled,
Never Run Away
Just a Passing Glance
1985 and more recently
Seven Days a Week
a solid joint production venture, between Goldie, Dr. Dread and himself, there has been no turning back.
Although he reached the peak of his solo career during the heydays of the eighties dance hall mania thus celebrating his impact with five top ten hits between 1982 - 1985, Late Night Blues Nice Time Tonight, Dice Cup, Hog & Goat, I'm Not Getting Crazy and Spread Out The latter of which is included here, he is still churning out solid, melodic roots reggae. There's an old saying in the music industry that claims: What goes around, comes back around. In Dons' case a request for reinstatement to his former role as lead vocalist for a rejuvenated Black Uhuru reunion eight years ago resulted in a sadly underrated Now album. Amazingly he has been able to maintain dual roles of solo and group member efforts without inflicting a conflict of interest. It is an extremely rare feat if an artist's repertorire is built without a few mistakes along the way and up until the reunion of original Uhuru in 1990, Carlos' reputation suffered slightly from over exposure. During this exhaustive and hectic period, one of Jamaica's leading producers' of the 70's and 80's Bunny Striker Lee was able to coax some of the singer's finest moments, which are here by recompiled for this nifty set. By cleverly employing the rugged rhythm section of top sessions musicians like Sly & Robbie, the Roots Radics Band plus Santa and Ranchie, This selection shows just how close producer and artist in perfect harmony got to developing the true potential which Carlos has always shown. The opener, Jonnie Big Mouth is a wistful attempt at reaffirming small time braggerts and so called know all's of their false impression, over that profound Drifter riddim. While Booming Ball utilises Alton Ellis I'm Just a Guy bass line to good effect. And further merits are handsomely gained as the ever reliable Real Rock riddim encapsulates yet another rendering via Ababa John 1. Among other things this collection is a prime example of versions excursions, so finally but certainly not of the least the album's singnature tune, Laser Beam utilises that old Three Tops It's Raining riff to great effect.

Guy at audio counter using a 10 year old computer couldn't pull it up via upc, so he types it in. "oh it's greater than 50% off, you have to go to the front cashier."
walk to the front cashier, "oh you have to do that at customer service" walk to customer service "oh customer service moved you have to walk over to that other side where new customer service is" (please don't bother removing old signs) walk to new customer service "oh this is more than 50% off you have to go to manager at customer service" walk to manager at customer service- finally processes claim-"oh you have to go to front cashier to get rung out" walk to front cashier-finally get rung out FRYS Reply |

Video: Celebrating the Power of Private Enterprise on International Women's Day
March 08, 2013
In Uganda, a group of enterprising women are building a business that's creating new opportunities for young, single mothers.
Today is International Women's Day, an opportunity to celebrate the economic, political and social achievements of women across the world. For TechnoServe, it's an occasion to recognize the tremendous importance of women in the effort to end global poverty. Across the globe, we're working to promote economic opportunities for women that will bring long-term benefits to families and communities.
In Kampala, Uganda, Paper Craft Africa shows how a business can be an engine of change in its community. The company employs 25 people, many of them young, single mothers. TechnoServe provided assistance to Paper Craft Africa through our Women Mean Business program, training the staff in areas such as bookkeeping, marketing and human resources. The new knowledge and skills allowed the business to hire more people.

This sequence is showing the artist Martin Riegraf in his studio which is located in the KunstWerk Cologne. KunstWerk Cologne is one of the biggest independant artists' houses in Germany. This small film is a cutout of my forthcoming - and the very first - documentary about this unique "art-factory".
Martin Riegraf comes across as a shy and withdrawn kind of artist. I therefore tried to make him forget the presence of the camera so I could capture the intimate ambience in his studio. Martin seems to immobilise the subjects of his erotic paintings. I wanted to allow the viewer to understand what it takes him as an artist to express himself and how difficult it can sometimes be for him to find the right mood for the painting.
My camerawork is very voyeuristic. In one scene where the artist is standing in front of his work and looks like he is being part of it, you get the impression that he is completely immobilised. Somehow it feels like he has become part of his own painting which is very peculiar. He is being artist and model at the same time.
During the first part of the working process my focus was on the sounds inside the studio whilst Martin is painting ; the viewer can hear him moan with discontentment as well as the sound of the pencil whilst he is drawing. There´s the sound of running water in the sink and the noise of the coffee machine. His nude model in the clip is the performance artist Angelica Schubert, also a resident at Kunstwerk Cologne. The clip's soundtrack was recorded by various artists at KunstWerk Cologne.
Cologne in october 09

I'm surprised but everywhere online that I looked I can't find, at least no advertised deal on:
- Bulk sized recommended LCD/LED cleaning liquid without cloths/wipes (I know some RFDers already suggested distilled water & Isopropynol).
- High airflow/powerful laptop/notebook cooling pad/fan
- 4-port KVM switches
- Wireless keyboards with backlit keys & pointer control (thumstick/trackball/trackpad whichever)
- Bluetooth Stereo Headsets w/Mic
- Wireless 5-button (click wheel counts as a button) laser mice w/tilt & scroll wheel, that works on a PS/2 to USB port adaptor. For example original Logitech MX620 before fast scroll wheel model.
These I just wanted opinions/recommendations what is:- Fastest reliable 2.5" SSD on sale?
- Better deal/quality than 800-Watt Cuisinart 5.5 Qt. Stand Mixer $279.99 Model: SM-55BCC futureshop web only boxing day flyer? 250-Watt Kitchenaid Mixer $100 in Futureshop liquidation flyer? Breville 550 Watt Steel Bench Mixer $199.99 Model: BREBEM800XL futureshop boxing day flyer?

In the interest of making it usable on the web at small sizes, it looses the connections but keeps the spirit of these letters to make a highly legible screen font with flair.

Is there any other way I can get hold of DF sources?
Thanks, Karthik.
