The most interesting point about this camera is Canon using a Sony sensor (if true). If this is going to be the beginning of a broader business relationship, and Canon puts Sony sensors in their FF DSLRs, much of Nikon's advantage will be gone. A 5D Mark IV, with a Sony Exmor sensor, would be a worthy upgrade.
The A5100 has three significant improvements vs the A6000 - full sensor readout in video, XAVC codec, touch screen for focus point selection. The full sensor readout, in this 24MP APS-C sensor, is a pretty significant feature and seems to be ignored. The RX100 mk3 and RX10 have full pixel readout but they are small 1" sensors. The A7s can do it with a FF sensor but the resolution is only 12MP. Also, video in FF results in 33ms of rolling shutter The A5100 seems to be the first ILC that can do full pixel readout using a relatively large and high resolution sensor. I'm interested to see the rolling shutter effect in the A5100.
Let me know when it's possible to mount a strobe, battery pack, and large soft box on the drone. That would take "voice activated light stand" to a new level.
Does the D810 fix the interpolated crappy live view, when zoomed in, from the D800 ? This makes manual focusing with live view very difficult with the D800.
Alphoid: Would you mind comparing to the Hasselblad Lunar? And perhaps a few models like the Minox DC1011?
The reason Nikon management used the D4 sensor is because it's the oldest sensor that they could find to include with their retro D600. Rumor has it that Nikon begged Canon to sell them some 5DIII sensors, with its antiquated 10 year old technology, but Canon refused.
Alphoid: Would you mind comparing to the Hasselblad Lunar? And perhaps a few models like the Minox DC1011?
Hassy Lunar = reskinned point and shoot w/ 10x markup
Nikon Df = reskinned D600 with 1.5x markup
Nikon didn't want to copy Hassy's strategy that became a laughing stock so they swapped out the D600 sensor.
"As such, although I hate to say it: from a cold, hard practical point of view, I can't shake the feeling that the Df is a little bit... silly."
Barnaby, it's about as silly as Hollywood with their non-stop production of remakes. When you run out of ideas you reach back in time and try to remarket ideas that have previously worked (i.e. Noct and this product). With the compact camera market gone and DSLR sales plunging these manufacturers are starting to show how desperate they are to find a new cash cow.
Next year we should be seeing a return of the twin lens reflex because simplicity is overrated. Further in Nikon's roadmap is full return to film because real artists don't use sensors. Of course they can't use any modern chemistry or optics because it's too sharp. They'll reintroduce "new" optics that resolves less than a Coke bottle. The collateral damage will be that Instagram's vintage filters become obsolete.
It's about time Nikon. The DPR forums are constantly saturated with people screaming for an f1/4 standard lens for close to $2k and you finally delivered. Good call on ignoring the very small minority of whiners who think an updated 24-70 f/2.8 is necessary.
plasnu: Please release lightweight version of Retrospective.
The Retrospective line is very popular but it suffers from two major flaws.
First, the flap closes with velcro. Any bag that uses velcro for closing should be immediately burned with the ashes sent back to the vendor. Not only is velcro less secure compared to clasps and zipppers you have to suffer through the loud noise every single time you access your bag. The only benefit is to the manufacturer who saves some money.
Second, the bag is very thick. Not only does this make the bag bulky but your lenses will move around in the compartments.
mr.izo: so, no need for d800 any more, hehe? if this new feature can solve shadows etc like mentioned nikon, than 6d is more an more option for me..
As with the new Aptina Clarity+ sensor just announced, Sony's BSI sensors, Foveon sensors, Fuji's X-Trans, and most likely Canon's new dual diode phase detect sensors, there's no free lunch. It's a trade-off. You will improve something while sacrificing something else that is hopefully less important to you.
vincent__l: It looks like this is a feature that Canon has implemented in hardware but disabled in firmware. I'm wondering how Canon will react to this given that they often use firmware to differentiate their product line.
ML claims that the feature, which requires "dual ISO amplifiers", is implemented in hardware but disabled by Canon. They also claim that only the 5D3 and 7D have this feature. Seems like Canon has been experimenting with it but were not ready to go into production.

AngryCorgi: Is it just me or is Marissa Mayer insanely cute?
It's just you. The headshot used for this article was shot by a "professional photographer." Here's what she really looks like.
jm67: How can it be both a "misstatement" and "out of context"? You've either slipped up and said something you shouldn't have or you have said something that has been snipped and is only part of a paragraph. In either case, should anyone care what she thinks? You know if you're a pro, amateur, hobbyist, student and so on. You don't need Marissa to tell you who you are. It's kind'a funny.
You seem to be stating her statement about her misstatement out of context
It was a simple misunderstanding. When she reviewed the pictures on Flickr she noticed that they were all snapshots of cats, with the subject in the middle, shot from an iPhone, and run through 10 different filters. What she meant to say was,
"There is no such thing as a professional photographer on Flickr"
Storage and high rez was never an issue for the amateur market that Flickr now serves. Many of the "serious" photographers have left Flickr years ago. I think it's too little too late.
ysengrain: "Adobe Product Manager Tom Hogarty stressed that Adobe has, 'no plans to make Lightroom subscription-only at any point in the future.'".
Error !! the right sentence is: Adobe Product Manager Tom Hogarty stressed that Adobe has, 'no plans YET to make Lightroom subscription-only at any point in the future.'
I doubt that Adobe gives a damn about Lightroom. If you look at the retail price of LR compared to Photoshop, or the other CS tools, you realize what pays the executive salaries at Adobe.They claim to have about 12 million customers for CS which must account for a large portion of their $4.5B annual revenue. They can sacrifice LR just to try to calm the angry masses.
Greg Henry: I've said it before, but it stands repeating... I've been impressed at how quickly Corel has stepped up to the plate regarding this issue with an official statement, and now only days later, offers for CS users...
I think Corel and others had a "defeated" attitude in the past, thinking "why bother" to try to overthrow Photoshop when it was so firmly entrenched. But now that Adobe has stepped in the Cow pattie, so to speak, it gives Corel an excellent opportunity if they are smart and put enough resources into it, to actually overthrow the King. I wish them the best. Have Paint Shop Pro X5 Ultimate now on my system and can say it's certainly an improvement over past versions.
If I were Corel, or any Adobe competitor, I would be hiring a headhunter to recruit Adobe's top programmers. Most employees would be willing to make a job change with as little as a 10% pay increase. With companies freezing salaries over the past few years, I'm there are some talent at Adobe looking to make a change. This is especially true if ADBE stock price starts to tank in the next 6 months (very likely). All those stock options, RSU's, ESPP's will be looking less desirable. Adobe has made themselves completely vulnerable to the competition.
vincent__l: Adobe should go one step further by making ACR an independent product that is sold with a perpetual license. That way the existing users of Photoshop CS6, which is likely to be the last Photoshop upgrade for many people, can continue to use it without become obsolete. ACR is really the only product that users need updates for. Yes, we can always use another app for RAW conversion but some of us want a unified workflow.
I'm sure Adobe doesn't *want* to support ACR for CS6. In fact, they would rather just kill CS6 today. However, it would be something they are forced to do in an attempt to mitigate the public outcry. Right now Adobe is trying to diffuse the anger by claiming that Photoshop CS6 will be available "indefinitely." However, that is a hollow statement considering that, without ACR updates, CS6 will eventually become obsolete. Allowing people to pay for an upgrade for ACR would be a middle ground Adobe could offer.

It may be blizzarding in New York City, but a little (or a lotta) snow doesn't faze showbiz folks who believe that the show must go on. The Broadway League announced this morning that there will be no cancellations today, and both the matinee and evening Broadway shows will play as scheduled. If you have to travel into NYC and are worried about dealing with the bad weather, you may want to contact your show's ticketing agent to see if they will be willing to exchange your tickets for another date. Not all shows are willing to offer exchanges, but some will, so it is worth asking. So far Telecharge has announced that it will offer exchanges to people holding tickets to these Broadway shows: Billy Elliot, Chicago, Fela!, God of Carnage, Hair, Jersey Boys, A Little Night Music, Mamma Mia!, Memphis, The Phantom of the Opera, Race, South Pacific, Time Stands Still, and A View from the Bridge.

Really like this design.
One thing stopping me purchasing is we need a photography portfolio that allows viewers to buy the photo's in the portfolio via digital download or postal service.
Any one know if there are there any Wordpress plugins that would fit into this template to add this functionality?
Top notch design though, I really like it!
Amazing design. Good luck!
Doesn't get much better than this. Unique design with great functionality. Good job, can't wait to see what's next. I really like the favorites and FAQ , its the little extras that count.
Thank you guys for the nice feedback!
Please don't forget to Follow me on themeforest and Twitter
This is outstanding. With each click of my mouse I was increasingly impressed by the design, layout and functionality you've packed into this theme. Very original, great job!
Thank you Parallelus! I really appreciate your valuable feedback.
Bookmarked this one, maybe i will purchase it for one of my next projects. Awesome clean design and features! An electronic store feature would be a great thing!!
I enjoy this theme a lot!
A few questions:
1. is there automatic thumbnails generation (croping)? 2. how are the picture and descriptions entered, with custom fields? 3. can the fonts (cufon?) be easily changed? 4. do you have screenshots or live demo of the dark version?
btw, it looks great on an ipad!
thanks and have a nice day!
Hi and Thanks for the nice feedback and also for testing this template on the ipad Thumbnails are generated automatically with help of timthumb.php script. After releasing of wordpress 3.0 theme will be updated to handle native WP croping.
Excerpts are used for pictures descriptions.
Changing font is fairly easy, I can assist you after the purchase.
P.S. It doesn't use cufon so it's even easier to change fonts (IMO)
Looking forward
You can get an overview about dark version here Dark version preview
Thank you for the quick answers! The dark theme looks awesome! I'll now play with it!
No problem! Please rate my file if you liked it.
Btw, either I didn't read the doc correctly or sth is missing.
In order to have an image of a post appearing on the front page slideshow, it needs to have the custom field "bigimage" set to the image url. Either nothing is displayed.
Is that so?
You should go to the options page, select "Photo Gallery Options".
1. Homepage layout set: "slide show"
2. Fill "Photo categories" with categories IDs, first ID you'll enter there will be used for the slideshow on the homepage.
That's it!
great job!
Very very nice theme here. Thinking of purchase, but have to ask few things first. Hope you don't mind.
- On the front page, is it possible to have facebook icon instead of twitter?
- Can I have multiple menu items on the left side? For example, where you have "travelling" I'd like to have link to the blog or also to add
- what sizes are the images I have to upload to appear on front size? For example, if they are not the right purpotions? (for example 4256×2832) - If I write post and upload image, will it be automatic resize for blog size?
- can we add some additional plugins to the blog page? Sidebar or footer?
Hope you will have time to reply.
Hi and thanks for asking,
- It's an easy fix. I'll assist you after the purchase. You'll need to replace few lines from header.php with facebook code.
- Absolutely, you are free to build your own menu structure and you are not limited to the ones I've created in the demo installation.
- For the demo I've used images that are about 1024px wide and proportional height. For slideshow and thumbnails images are automatically resized.
- Right now theme doesn't have any widget areas. but this is only because I didn't know where to place them and how to use. If you feel that you need one, let me know.
Will the front page and other resizing work even if I upload 800×600 size image? Or it has to be 1024 ?
Thanks for your kind replys
It will work with any image. And it will stretch the image to fit the screen. However if you'll upload image with too low resolution or quality, re-sized image will be pixelated.
Very impressive theme. It is great to see your progress over via the themes you have here on TF. Really considering this theme to replace my current theme from Epicera
Thank you! And I also looking forward!
hi mixey
am planning buy this template it's so beautiful!
quick questions
can i replace the site name text to a logo? and can i move it on top of the sidebar???
yes you can replace sitename with your own logo and it tajes only 30 seconds.
To move logo on the top you'll need to change css a little bit, but I will assist you after the purchase.
Thanks for your interest!
oh hi mixey
tried to install the theme but i got this message
"The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template."
how can i fix it?
Hi and thanks for buying!
You are getting this message because you forgot to unzip archive file that you downloaded from themeforest. Please unzip that file, inside of it you'll find help.pdf and photoshot.zip. And then upload photoshot.zip inside of the Wordpress theme installer, after that your theme will be installed successfully.
To place logo at the top. Please insert this code in the "Custom css" (it's located under the Photoshot Options menu).
#logolink {
i got it mixey thanks!!!!
btw mixey i'd also like to change the twitter icon to facebook
one more thing, i changed the logo but it only appears on the page when i click the "read more section"
on the homepage and other pages it shows the default photoshot logo…
how can i correct this?
To change twitter icon please open header.php file
find this piece of code
<a href="#twitter" class="button twitter_button"> </a> and paste instead of it facebook code.
It's impossible that logo appearing only on the inner pages, because on every page same code is executed. So I guess it's a cache on your browser.
got it mixey thanks a lot
hi mixey
checked this page again and found out about the newer version, how can i update mine? should i reinstall it??
Hi Mixey,
I bought this theme last night, and I really like it!
I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the process for putting photos on the home page.
Do I actually CREATE a page called "home?" I noticed on the demo site that it doesn't say "home" at the top. But, when I created a page called "home," the word showed up above the picture.
Also, do I use the short codes to actually designate which photos show up on the home page?
Please advise… thanks in advance for your help!
Hi Cynthia Thank you for the comment,
No you don't need to create page called home. You should go to the options page and find menu item called "Photo Gallery Options", Under the "Homepage layout" select "Slideshow". That's it!!
P.S. I assume that you have entered your gallery ID in the "Photo categories" field, if not then you should do that too.
P.P.S. Finding the ID of desired category is very easy, open "IDs Info" tab under options menu and you'll find all categories with respective IDs there.
I hope that helps!
Hi Mixey… OK, so after I follow your directions, do I create a blog post for each one of the photos that I want to show up on the home page?
I'm not clear on what the next step would be.
Thanks so much for your patience! :o)

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Michael firstname.lastname@example.com A former Morehouse College student was acquitted Monday in the 2006 torture-death of a fellow student. Breylon Garland, 24, faced 12 counts, including charges of malice murder and felony murder, in the death of Carlnell Walker, 23. One of his co-defendants, Miles Allen, 24, was convicted Aug. 28 of participating in Walker's murder. Clayton County Superior Court Judge Deborah Benefield, who also presided over Garland's case, sentenced Allen to two life terms in prison, plus 70 years. Co-defendants Keith Roberts and Theodore Holliman will be tried separately in the case, later, according to Clayton County Executive Assistant District Attorney Jason Green. Garland's defense attorney, Robert Mack, had argued that Garland drove his three co-defendants to Walker's home in Riverdale, but was unaware of any plans to attack or rob Walker. Prosecutors had argued that Garland and his three co-defendants tortured Walker for several hours one night in June, 2006, at Walker's Glenshire Court home. Prosecutors said the men did not leave until the following morning, after they had bound Walker, gagged him, doused him in a flammable liquid and left him in the trunk of a car in the garage to die. Walker's body was discovered July 8, 2006, according to testimony in the case. "Carlnell was kind of begging for his life," Garland told police during a taped interview on July 19, 2006. He said the motive for the attack was money. According to prosecutors, Walker had apparently told several people that he was expecting a settlement from a March 2006, automobile crash. During the police interview, played in court last week during his trial, Garland admitted that he helped place Walker in the trunk of the car. He said Roberts forced him to do it. "He [Roberts] told me to put him [Walker] in the trunk. I told him, no," Garland said on the tape. "He [Roberts] pulled a gun on me. He said, 'Look, you do this or you get in the trunk with him,'" Garland said. Garland told police during the interview that he had no idea, before hand, that the co-defendants had planned to attack Walker. After a week-long trial, and several hours of deliberation Friday evening and Monday morning, a jury acquitted him on all of the counts he faced. He became visibly emotional, and several times, appeared to mouth the words "thank you" in the direction of members of the jury. Benefield told him he would be free to leave after being processed out of the Clayton County Jail. Formerly a student majoring in psychology at Morehouse, Garland is likely to return to his home state of California to continue his studies, Mack said after Monday's verdict. "He's always believed that once a jury got to hear the evidence ... that he would be exonerated," Mack said. "This is a case of a good kid being set up by folks he thought were his friends. They used him to get a ride over there, and nobody ever told him what was going on, what they were up to." Green, the executive assistant district attorney, said prosecutors were able to speak with only three of the jurors in the case after the verdict was rendered. "We find ourselves in the unfortunate position where we don't have that much more insight into their verdict than anybody spectating in the courtroom," he said, "however, I think that there were some difficulties reconciling the horrendous nature of the crime with what on the surface appears to be a upstanding, otherwise pleasant, young man. "It did come out in evidence, obviously, that he was a student at Morehouse," Green said. "It came out in evidence that his parents were police officers. It came out in evidence that he had three jobs - one of them working at UPS. He's articulate, clean-cut, and I think, that even though we did not get a chance to speak with them, one of the difficulties jurors have in this [is] comporting that with their idea of a murderer." Green said Holliman and Roberts could be tried some time early next year. - Staff writer Linda Looney-Bond contributed to this article.

AMD64, Tyan K8W, Geforce 5700 = black screen

Re: AMD64, Tyan K8W, Geforce 5700 = black screen
Sorry should have been more specific in that particular statement: the Geforce FX 5700 Ultra 3 works fine in the same identicle hardware under either 64 bit gentoo OR 32 bit Suse 9.1 (two separate computers running the OS's).
I have tested my card (Geforce 5700 Ultra) using 32 bit gentoo on the same hardware (my computer) and it does not work. (I used a spare partition and did a complete, clean install from scratch.) It resulted in the same black screen, with X chewing up 100% of the CPU just as it does under 64bit.
The card works fine when in 'PCI mode' on the same hardware under a 64 or 32 bit install of Gentoo. Of course the performance is bad, but it does work.
One thing that has seemed to change (with the 6111 drivers ) is the 2d desktop screen refreshes seem smoother than before (in pci mode of course).

"Like the dinosaurs that used to roam the earth but were wiped out, apparently by a huge asteroid, ADVrider was also once a place where big bikes were more abundant.
ADVrider was created to support the horizon-chasing adventure motorcycling community. Because of that, we support free-wheeling thinking, great pictures and stories, those who aren't afraid to turn a wrench (and those who have turned them with trepidation), and riders who respect the diversity that makes the planet worth traveling.
ADVrider is certainly diverse, but isn't always a place where that diversity is respected, especially for us big-bike riders. The common joke about us involves use of the word "Starbucks" (insert laughter). We get it. KLR riders are cheap, KTM riders wear nothing but orange and big bike riders (particularly the GS/GSA's) never venture beyond Starbucks. It's funny because there's an element of truth to it.
This thread, "B E Y O N D S T A R B U C K S" is intended as a place for big-bike riders in the West Region to discuss bikes, gear, farkles, riding, trip planning, training, etc… amongst others of like mind. This thread is not a place to disrespect the diversity that is ADVrider. Trolls, haters and bike fascists are free to bash in Jo Mama.
Most importantly though, us big bike riders with less off-road experience need to venture beyond our local coffee shop. Go ahead, get your bike dirty. Adventure doesn't have to mean an 18 month journey through Asia and Africa, but neither is it a quick ride down Laguna Canyon Road and back.
Big bikes are great at touring and there will be touring opportunities. Big bikes are great on the street and there will be opportunities to ride plenty of twisties, as well as participate in track days. The most exciting opportunities will be off-road in events geared for the big bike. We'll plan our own big-bike rides, as well as be part of other rides throughout the year.
For you more seasoned big bike riders, step up and show some leadership here. Give something back to the community that gave you your intro to adventure.

Anyway, lets attempt to keep this going. Overly opinionated thoughts should be pushed to PM and if your not a big bike rider, pls don't stir the pot.
Cheers, I see this lasting a week...
You don't get it do you? The first thread was doomed because of what it stood for as later demonstrated by the OP's attitude, not in general, but in detailed by the OP from the get go and throughout his posts.
If you want this to survive, let it go and go with the flow. We all support the general idea.
We all support big bike rides and NOOBs learning more, what we don't support is division of any sort, so if this is your groove then move on.
What you are doing would be considered trolling by the mods, so don't go the "way of the dinosaurs" by posting the same shit twice. Once at 4:44 and again at 4:57.
We get it, you loved Fudgy. So then go start an "Ode to Fudgy" thread. Good luck with that.
Grinch is trying to keep things on track this time, so let's not fuck it up again.

The special summer menu at Bonsai restaurant isn't biased in favour of the non-vegetarian crowd
After welcoming summers with the Mango Food Festival, Bonsai restaurant located at Connaught Place, right in the heart of Delhi , is ready with its special summer menu. It's a 98 cover restaurant with one of the best al fresco arrangements in the vicinity. The menu has on offer seven dishes each in the vegetarian as well as in the non-vegetarian section. It's a well-balanced menu with options of different kinds of meat. It offers a good mix of prawns, fish, chicken and my all-time favourite lamb. There is Indian as well as Oriental cuisine.
I started my meal with a lamb delicacy kakuri kabab, which wasn't so impressive as it lacked a bit on succulence but it was well seasoned. It tasted well with the mint chutney and sliced onions. Reshmi kabab was a notch higher in terms of tenderness.Combination of grilled chicken thigh in mushroom sauce was experimental and novel but nonetheless tasty and filling. Fish seekh kabab was perfectly seasoned and tasted well with the accompaniments. Grilled jumbo prawn in lemon butter sauce was a sheer delight. Ten on ten for its presentation. I noticed a couple of ladies sitting next to my table trying to have a glimpse of my jumbo prawn. Grilled to perfection with a shining glaze on the outer shell made it look even more tempting. The moment I pricked it with my fork in the prawn lemon juice and butter sauce oozed out of it. It had the perfect tinge of lemon and thickness of butter sauce.
But the absolute winner was the lobster thormidor. I would say it's a must try for a seafood lover. The vegetarian section was even more competitive. Paneer galafi seekh kabab was tender and had the aroma of having been grilled on charcoal. Chef's expertise clearly comes through in the grilled vegetarian skewers and grilled Asian veggies in spicy Thai sauce. Vegetable teriyaki was a bit tangy and sweet as well. Veg shami kabab and hariyali seekh kabab had a nice blend of vegetables seasoned to perfection in e Indian spices. Dahi ke kabab, a delicacy which is found in every Indian restaurant nowadays, was quite succulent. It's a delicacy made by hung curd and Indian spices enjoyed best with the traditional mint chutney.
(Meal for two costs Rs. 1000 to Rs. 1200 at Bonsai in

Nothing Like a Healthy Correction for Gold, Says Rosland Capital's Senior Economic Advisor Jeffrey Nichols
NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — Jeffrey Nichols, Senior Economic Advisor to Rosland Capital (www.roslandcapital.com), had the following commentary based on recent market activity and the week ahead:
On November 9, 2010, as gold was registering new all-time highs near $1,425 an ounce, we warned the metal was "certainly vulnerable to a setback, and a substantial one at that."
In part, we thought that the influx of speculative buying that contributed to the upward spike over $1,400 would inevitably lead to profit taking. And, indeed, it did. From it's all-time high early last week, gold shed as much as $70 an ounce, trading at times under $1,360.
But there is more to the story of gold's latest up and down … and more to suggest that gold's strong upward price trend will soon resume:
First, Market Reaction to the World Bank Statement on Gold
Fueling gold's ascent early last week was an op-ed article by World Bank president Robert Zoellick in Monday's prestigious Financial Times suggesting the leading economic powers consider making gold part of a new "cooperative monetary system." Gold bugs and much of the financial media jumped on the news, believing that the World Bank was suddenly advocating a return to the gold standard.
But a more objective reading revealed Zoellick suggested gold might merely serve as an indicator for relative currency valuation within some new global monetary system. This is a far cry from re-monetization of gold, which seems unworkable to us, and implementation of a gold-centric world monetary order. Just as quickly as they jumped into gold, many investors and speculators speedily exited once they understand the very limited and, indeed, rather peripheral role for gold suggested by the World Bank.
Second, Renewed Eurozone Sovereign Debt Worries
Rising concerns in the past week about Eurozone sovereign debt once again triggered a flight from the euro, Europe's single currency, to the relatively safer U.S. dollar. And, in true reflex fashion, the dollar's appreciation against the euro, also contributed to the weaker dollar-denominated gold price.
Although gold is the ultimate safe haven in times of financial risk, many institutional investors and speculators still remain uncomfortable with gold, prefer interest-bearing assets even at low rates of return, and believe the much greater size of global currency and fixed-income markets (relative to a much smaller world gold market) will assure speedy and efficient trading in and out of positions. But flight from the euro to the U.S. dollar can weigh on gold prices only so long. As we've seen in the past, risk aversion will push the dollar up only so far against gold. If euro risks continue to rise, we will see still stronger retail demand for physical gold in Europe and elsewhere have a more powerful positive effect on the yellow metal's price. And, if euro risks abate, we can expect gold to benefit from a renewed fall in the U.S. dollar.
Third, China's Interest Rate Outlook
Compounding gold's troubles late last week were rumors that China's central bank, the People's Bank of China or PBOC, would soon raise short-term interest rates or take other restrictive monetary policy actions to counter rising domestic price inflation, help deflate overvalued equity and real estate markets and prevent the economy from overheating.
Negative reaction hammered equity prices on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and other regional equity markets. Gold prices were also hit hard by the rumors of PBOC tightening. China, of course, vies with India as the biggest national gold market. Rising demand for both gold jewelry and investment has been an important bullish force on the world gold market and has contributed significantly to the metal's impressive appreciation in recent years.
China's gold market depends importantly on continued economic growth, rising household income and a growing middle class in that country. Prudent actions now — including a gradual upward adjustment in interest rates and a continued gradual appreciation in the yuan, China's currency — will contribute to healthy, long-term, economic expansion and this is the best scenario for continued growth in gold jewelry and investment demand.
Fourth, Physical Markets Remain Robust
Physical demand in key world gold markets, especially China, India and other Southeast Asian trading centers, remained remarkably firm in recent weeks. Earlier this year, and certainly last year, the idea that physical demand could remain firm with gold trading in the $1,300 to $1,400 an ounce price range seemed totally inconceivable to most market analysts and participants.
As in the past, when gold prices hit the big round numbers — $1000, $1100, $1200 and $1300 — many expected widespread physical selling and an outflow of old gold scrap from these local markets. But now, even with prices near $1,400 an ounce, we have seen a persistence of physical demand and only limited quantities of old scrap coming back to the world market.
This suggests not only a continuing price appreciation and revaluation of gold — but also a mental re-evaluation or upward adjustment in expectations of many gold-market participants about the current and future price of gold.
If physical buying remains fairly firm — and, even more so, if demand responds positively to the lower price levels of recent days — we can expect that gold will soon be soaring to new all-time highs.
Really, Nothing Is Changed
As of November 15, 2010, while a few misguided souls are already pronouncing the death of gold, believing the current correction signals an end to the bull market, we remain confident in our long-standing forecast of still much higher prices ahead.
Indeed, we have often warned that extreme two-way price volatility would persist as gold continues its great upward march — first to $2,000 an ounce, then to $3,000, and probably still higher in the years ahead.
Really, nothing has much changed as we come to the end of the tenth consecutive year of rising gold prices.
The key bullish points (U.S. monetary policy and the absence of any cohesive fiscal policy; the long-term on-going devaluation of the dollar and its diminishing appeal as a reserve asset by many a growing number of central banks; net official sector demand as more central banks buy gold; healthy rates of economic growth and growing demand for gold jewelry and investment in the China and India; rising investor interest from both retail and institutional investors; the development of new gold-investment products and geographic markets; continuing sovereign risk issues for a number of European nations and the diminishing appeal of the euro as an international currency; and little if any growth in world gold mine output for years to come) that have long supported our bullish outlook for gold remain as valid today, if not more so, than ever before.

Tennis: Switzerland trail Kazakhs, Murray puts Britain on brink
Published on Apr 6, 2014 8:53 AM
(REUTERS) - Roger Federer's hopes of adding a Davis Cup winners' medal to his vast collection of silverware were hanging by a thread on Saturday after Switzerland fell 2-1 behind to Kazakhstan in their World Group quarter-final tie.
The 17-times grand slam champion teamed up with Australian Open winner Stanislas Wawrinka on Saturday but the Swiss duo were stunned by Aleksandr Nedovyesov and Andrey Golubev, losing 6-4 7-6(5) 4-6 7-6(6) in Geneva.
Britain, however, are on the brink of a first semi-final appearance in the team competition since 1981 after Wimbledon champion Andy Murray and fellow Scot Colin Fleming won their doubles against Italy in Naples to move 2-1 ahead.
In Nancy, another home side, France are in trouble against Germany although they kept their last eight clash alive on Saturday when Michael Llodra and Julien Benneteau beat rookie pair Tobias Kamke and Andre Begemann.

Seven killed north of Baghdad, security forces targeted
Seven security force members died Tuesday in gun attacks north of Baghdad, according to Agence France Presse.
In the city of Baquba, north of the capital, five solders and one anti-Qaeda Sahwa militaman was killed by gunmen at a checkpoint.
A police intelligence officer was also kidnapped and killed in Kirkuk, according to security and medical sources.
Two policeman and a Sahwa fighter were previously killed his week by gunmen in Samarra.
No one has claimed responsibility for the attacks, according to AFP, but Sunni militants have often led attacks against what they consider "traitor" Sahwa militamen due to the latter's cooperation with the United States military against Al Qaeda.
Unrest in Iraq has already killed 850 people this month alone, as one of the bloodiest periods of Iraq's recent history continues.

|During the course of an investigation of the natural pigments of milk carried on in the Research Laboratories of the Dairy Department, at the University of Missouri, it became evident that more than one pigment existed in the milk; namely that the pigment which remained in the whey after the removal of casein and fat was not identical with the pigment found in the fat. The investigation reported here deals only with the whey pigment. The object of this investigation was to repeat the investigations upon the chemical nature of this pigment to add any possible points; to coordinate the varying results which have been obtained and to determine the factors which influence the varying amount of the pigment and if possible assign a reason for its presence in the serum.

Florida State's John Holland arrested at College World Series
Florida State freshman John Holland was arrested Monday evening and charged with shoplifting from a sporting goods store in Omaha, Neb. He has been suspended indefinitely from the school's baseball team.
Holland, who has started at designated hitter in both of Florida State's College World Series games, and his brother Steven Holland, 23, are suspected of changing the price tags on items in an attempt to purchase the goods for a lower amount, according to Omaha police.
Marty Conboy, the Omaha city prosecutor, said the incident took place at a vendor tent across the street from TD Ameritrade Park -- the site of the College World Series.
Conboy said the Hollands tried to switch the price tag on a shirt they wanted to buy, adding the difference in cost was $12.
Holland pled guilty to a misdemeanor charge of damaging property during a court appearance Tuesday morning. He paid a $50 fine and the case is now closed, Conboy said.
"The young man in question, John Holland, made a serious error in judgment," Florida State coach Mike Martin said Tuesday afternoon in a statement released by the university.
"Due to a violation of team rules, he has been suspended indefinitely. The university will have no further comment on the situation."
Steven Holland, 23, who just completed his senior baseball season at Maryland, is John's older brother.
No. 3 national seed Florida State meets No. 2 UCLA in an elimination game Tuesday night.
Freshman John Nogowski, who had a pinch-hit single in the Seminoles' 12-2 elimination win over Stony Brook on Sunday, is expected to replace Holland in the lineup.
Holland, from Johns Creek, Ga., is hitting .243 this season.
He went 1 for 5 with a double and two RBIs in the Seminoles' 4-3 loss to Arizona in Friday's opener, and was 0 for 1 with two walks and two runs scored in the win over Stony Brook.

Transsexuality and the Art of Transitioning
A Lacanian approach
By Oren Gozlan
Routledge – 2015 – 104 pages
Routledge – 2015 – 104 pages
Transsexuality and the Art of Transitioning: A Lacanian approach presents a startling new way to consider psychoanalytic dilemmas of sexual difference and gender through the meeting of arts and the clinic. Informed by a Lacanian perspective that locates transsexuality in the intermediate space between the clinic and culture, Oren Gozlan joins current conversations around the question of sexual difference with the insistence that identity never fully expresses sexuality and, as such, cannot be replaced by gender.
The book goes beyond the idea of gender as an experience that gives rise to multiple identities and instead considers identity as split from the outset. This view transforms transsexuality into a particular psychic position, able to encounter the paradoxes of transitional experience and the valence of phantasy and affect that accompany aesthetic conflicts over the nature of beauty and being. Gozlan brings readers into the enigmatic qualities of representation as desire for completion and transformation through notions of tension, difference and aesthetics through examining the artwork of Anish Kapoor and Louise Bourgeois and the role played by confusion in the aesthetics of transformation in literature and memoir. Each chapter of the book presents a productive take on understanding the psychoanalytic demand to sustain and consider the dilemma that the unconscious presents to the knowledge and recognition of gender. Fundamentally, this work understands transsexuality as a creative act, rich with desire and danger, in which thinking of the transsexual body as both an analytic and a subjective object helps us to reveal the creativity of sexuality.
Ideal for psychoanalysts, psychologists, psychiatrists and social workers as well as students of psychoanalysis, cultural studies, literature studies and philosophy, Transsexuality and the Art of Transitioning offers a unique insight into psychoanalytic approaches to transsexuality and the question of assuming a position in gender.
'As psychoanalyst at work, Oren Gozlan presents gender on the move and in transition. It is within the enigmas of life, Gozlan argues, best expressed between the clinic and the creative arts that open psychoanalysis to alterity. The novel analysis of transsexuality is presented through the aesthetic conflicts of psychical space and their literary destiny. Between the clinic and its critique, readers can examine changing views of transsexuality. Through his evocative frame, Gozlan offers new ways to trace the representations of gender from the advent of memoir and identity claims into the enigmatic literature and to abstract sculpture. Revisiting a number of psychoanalytic debates on the heteroglossia of the drives and sublimation, this book is a bold move from reading the body to writing upon it.' - Deborah P. Britzman, FRSC and author of Freud and Education.

Whole body hypothermia provides cerebral (brain) protection for newborns affected by hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). This complication occurs when there is a reduced level of oxygen (hypoxia) or blood flow (ischemia) to the baby's brain or body.
Whole-body cooling places newborns on a water-filled cooling mattress to reduce body temperature to 92F for three days, which is long enough to interrupt brain injury. After the three days, your baby recovers to a normal body temperature in our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) with continuous EEG (electroencephalogram) neuromonitoring.Our cooling program follows the National Institute of Health's Neonatal Network protocol, which demonstrates a reduction in death or serious disability for infants who develop serious neonatal encephalopathy within 6 hours of birth.

On Tuesday, local high school and junior high students will begin taking the same standardized test that will be administered to 4 million students in public schools all across California.
Gov. Pete Wilson and the state Legislature clashed last year over the use of one test to measure how well California's students - with their diverse array of ethnicities, socioeconomic classes and languages spoken - are learning the public school curriculum.
Wilson threatened to veto portions of California's $68 billion budget unless the Legislature agreed upon one test that all public schoolchildren would take so that academic progress could be compared from one district to the next.
Finally, the state Board of Education voted in November to adopt the use of the Stanford Achievement Test Series, Ninth Edition, published by Texas-based Harcourt Brace Educational Measurement.
Students in grades two through 11 will take exams specific to individual grade levels.
Of the 14,000 students in the William S. Hart Union High School District, seniors will be the only ones who won't take the Stanford 9, as the test is called. The standardized exams will be administered to the seventh- through 11th-graders over several school days until May 12, said Gary Wexler, the district's director of curriculum and assessment.
Hart district Superintendent Bob Lee said that while he hasn't seen the Stanford 9, he has heard about its content. ``The test is by far more difficult than any (standardized) test the state has ever had,'' he said.
Hart students tend to fare well on standardized tests though. ``They've always done above the national average,'' Wexler said.
If local youths struggle with the questions, other students across California likely will have the same difficulties and the scores probably will reflect that, Lee added.
In previous years, the Hart district has tested its students only in eighth and 10th grades, Wexler said. Last year, those eighth-graders scored in the 59th percentile in reading, the 60th percentile in written expression and the 78th percentile in mathematics, he said.
Last year's 10th-graders fared just as well. They scored in the 63rd percentile in reading, the 62nd percentile in written expression and the 73rd percentile in mathematics, Wexler said.
The main challenge Hart students will face is that the Stanford 9 tests - a separate multiple-choice exam for each grade level - don't perfectly match the California curriculum in general and the Hart district curriculum in particular, Wexler said.
``For example, in our district, we don't have all students taking a ninth-grade social studies class. Almost all our students take modern world history as 10th-graders,'' Wexler explained.
Yet the ninth-grade test will include questions on subjects - such as Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries - those students haven't studied, he said.
In the Stanford 9 exam, Hart district seventh- and eighth-graders will be tested on reading vocabulary, reading comprehension, spelling, language arts, mathematics problem solving and mathematics procedures, Wexler said.
Hart district high schoolers will be tested on those subjects as well as science and social studies, Wexler said.
The Stanford 9 ``will take about five hours to administer,'' Wexler said.
Results for schools statewide, for each grade level, will be made public by June 30, including on the Internet.
For the past decade, the Hart district had used the Individual Test of Academic Skills, published by Mission Viejo-based School Research and Services. The questions on that standardized exam were specific to California's curriculum, Wexler said.
The Hart district's incoming seventh-graders for years had been given the Iowa Test of Basic Skills, another widely-used standardized test, he said.
Wexler said the content of the tests are closely guarded to maintain the integrity of the results. But a hint to the difficulty can be seen in the number of questions to be answered and the time allotted to do so, he said.
For example, the ninth-grade test has 40 science questions and 40 social studies questions. Students are given only 20 minutes to complete each section, meaning they have to work at a pace of 30 seconds for each science question and 30 seconds for each social studies question, Wexler said.
Each grade level, from seventh to 11th, has roughly 250 questions for all the subjects on their Stanford 9 test, he added.
Sean Walsh, the governor's deputy chief of staff, said that Wilson has been fighting to have one test for all California schoolchildren since he took office in 1990.
``If one area is doing abysmally poor, and one area is doing well, then we should find out what they're doing right,'' Walsh said. ``Quite frankly, we hope that this gets some parents upset,'' he said.
``If one school district is doing a great job, why? Right now, we have no way of understanding that,'' Walsh said. ``You have to identify the patient's illnesses before you can treat them.''

Wolfsnail: A Backyard Predator
Title: Wolfsnail: A Backyard Predator
Author: Sarah C. Campbell
KDL Description:
A photo essay on a day in the life of a wolfsnail.
Amazon Description:
This true tale of horror begins in the leaf litter beside a quaint, tidy porch in Jackson, Mississippi. Rain trickles off the edge of a quaint, tidy porch and onto the shell of a sleeping creature. The water awakens the beast. Slowly, a slimy foot emerges from the shell, then a hideous head. The wolfsnail is on the prowl.
Big, strong, and fast (for a snail), the wolfsnail has a taste for meat. In some areas, it is called the cannibal snail. It has earned the name.
Above the wolfsnail, a smaller snail calmly eats the leaf of a garden plant. Surely, it is safe here, in the shade of the leaves, hidden from the view of snail-eating birds.
Maybe not. Below, the wolfsnail begins to climb. It knows this plant. It has fed here before. Soon, the predator finds the slime trail of the smaller snail. It turns and follows the gooey path toward its prey. When the chase ends and the dramatic feast is done, nothing remains of the smaller snail but an empty shell.
This photographic story of a day in the life of a wolfsnail offers kids a unique and dramatic introduction to the food chain. The wolfsnail s story also has important lessons for everyone. In the southern United States, the wolfsnail is a rightful member of the native wildlife. But it has been taken to other regions, where it has devastated the populations of unique species of snails.
For example, the wolfsnail was transplanted to Hawaii in the hope of controlling the giant African snail, a serious farm pest. The wolfsnail does indeed eat giant African snails, but it prefers the unique species that live only on the islands. It has wiped out many of Hawaii s native snails, which for thousands of years had composted leaf litter, kept some plants from overtaking the ground, and provided food for birds and other predators. The long-term effects of their disappearance on Hawaii s ecosystem are not yet known.
Sarah Campbell uses stunning photographs taken collaboratively by herself and her husband, Richard, to tell this engaging story. Young readers will be fascinated by this little-known predator and informed by seeing the impact it has had on habitats where it does not belong.

A book against forgetting
"Subversive Lives: A Family Memoir of the Marcos Years" by Susan F. Quimpo and Nathan Gilbert Quimpo. Manila, Anvil Publishing, 2012.
As we mark the 40th anniversary of the declaration of martial law, it seems we have put that ignominious era behind us. And why not? We yearn to return to normalcy: rebels must simmer down and make a living, children must be allowed to enjoy the benefits of a global economy, and grandchildren must be brought into the world to give us a chance at joy.
We have to believe that we have not stood still, that things have become better for our having survived.
More than half of our population today were born after the 1986 People Power Revolution. How can we keep those crucial years from seeming a mere blip in our history? We must tell the stories of those who defined us at our best through their idealism and love for this country.
Such a wrenching but necessary memory-jogger is this real-life saga of a family that paid an extraordinarily high price for being Filipinos at a crossroads in our national life. It carries the byline of Susan Quimpo and brother Nathan, but the contributions from seven other siblings and a sister-in-law are essential to the telling of a tale that must endure for posterity.
Susan attests to the "bloody" task she took on, of getting so many family members residing in different continents to re-visit this painful time in their shared lives. But thankfully, each one's unquenchable reflective impulse and uncommon journalistic skills won out. In particular, Susan's depiction of harrowing scenes from both urban and rural battlegrounds are worthy of any "war" documentary.
Compassion and justice
"Subversive Lives" brings us to Ground Zero, where a typical middle-class young father and mother (Ishmael Quimpo and Esperanza Ferrer), just emerged from the upheavals of WWII, valiantly face the challenges of feeding, clothing and educating their brood of 10. In aspiring for a better future for their children and imbuing them with values of compassion and justice, they inevitably provide the fodder for their social and political awakening. Through the siblings' mini-biographies, we relive the turning points at which the family's destiny flows into the tide of national events: the First Quarter Storm of January 1970, the declaration of martial law in September 1972, and Ninoy Aquino's assassination in August 1983.
The four brothers who are drawn into radicalism—Nathan, Jan, Ryan and Jun—are mere adolescents when they become activists, then revolutionaries. Their elder siblings—Norman, Lillian and Caren—come into adulthood right smack in the middle of a society in transition. They, too, are fired with a sense of mission that compels them to embrace activism of varying risks and commitments.
Susan, the youngest, had already spent a lifetime visiting her siblings in various detention centers when she entered UP in the 1980s. Following the footsteps of her role model ate Lillian, she joined the NDF cultural arm Peryante. "I joined the movement despite its shortcomings, because it fought for human rights," she recalls. "Besides, it was the only sustained opposition to the Marcos dictatorship."
With horror and foreboding, we watch as one by one the siblings are sucked into the maelstrom that quickly becomes hell. From relatively tame involvements such as supporting evicted squatters and protesting oil price increases alongside jeepney drivers, the teenage boys separately find their way to the Kabataang Makabayan, and later abandon their studies in elite schools to join the CPP/NDF/NPA. As far as the brothers were concerned, events had overtaken the debate between armed struggle and peaceful reformism.
Nourished by the nationalist writings of Amado Hernandez, Claro M. Recto, Renato Constantino, Teodoro Agoncillo and Hernando Abaya, and impressed by Jose Maria Sison's analyses of Philippine society according to Marx-Lenin-Mao Tse Tung thought, they saw no recourse in the fight against the dictatorship.
'Embryonic underground movement'
Ryan recalls how he felt in 1972: "Tyranny had succeeded in silencing all voices, except one, and it came from the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) through its embryonic underground movement, guided and woven together by this publication. Reading 'Ang Bayan,' I felt proud and vindicated, I was part of the only resistance movement that foresaw, prepared for, and survived the onslaught of military rule and fascism."
Not any less chilling from the distance of 40 years are the descriptions of police, paramilitary and military brutality against those who dared protest, march, boycott, barricade or were merely suspected of being subversive. The fugitive life of moving from one safe house to another, betrayals, raids, arrests, detention, interrogation and torture become nightmarish realities.
In a grim equation of sorts, Nathan and Ryan rose in the party ranks and carried on their organizational work in the relative safety of European assignments (though not without their own hardships as political refugees), while their two brothers spilled their blood in unknown battlefields.
If Marcos was the destroyer of a generation's dreams, Jose Ma. Sison turned out not to be the true prophet of progress, either. From their two separate vantage points, Nathan and Ryan provide up-close chronicles of fundamental conflicts among CPP leaders, leading to differing strategies and the tragic purges of the 1980s. Bearing with the unappealing personal qualities of Sison and his wife was only a minor hurdle.
Many years later, eldest brother Ateneo mathematics professor Norman learned from fellow activists that it was Sison, not Marcos, who ordered the Plaza Miranda bombing
Nathan resumed his schooling 18 years after dropping out of UP. Now 60, a PhD holder and professor in political science and international studies at the University of Tsukuba in Japan, he looks back at his life in the revolutionary movement as "the most difficult, self-sacrificing, exciting and dangerous…inspiring, excruciating, audacious and horrendous…"
He criticized the Left for not participating in the Edsa People Power Revolution and losing an opportunity to share power in the post-Marcos government, but later he told friends, "Thank goodness, we didn't win in 1986. If we had, the Philippines would have ended up with a regime worse than Marcos'—a totalitarian dictatorship."
Worth it?
And so a question hovers over the narratives and haunts the siblings to this day: Was it all worth it? We may sympathize with the view of their eldest sister Lys, that the armed struggle was a waste of human resources, on a scale similar to Marcos' plundering. But only those who were in the thick of the struggle can venture answers.
"Reflecting on my years in the movement…brings up feelings of grief, sadness and shame," confesses Lillian, now a widow and a resident of Perth, Australia. "I still grieve over the suffering and loss of my younger brothers and the waste of their young lives… But the shame is also deep for having followed a duplicitous leadership and for staying as long as I did in the movement."
It was an expectant moment at the book's launch last April 20, as Ryan, now 57, who has made a career post-CPP as IT specialist, approached the microphone. "We had no choice," he said simply. "It was our duty." In the book, he ponders Sison's view that the failure of the Philippine revolution of 1896 was due to the leadership of the liberal bourgeoisie. "I now believe," he concludes, "that whether leaders are proletarian or bourgeois may be important, but individual character is also important and can be decisive."
That leaves us—you and me and PNoy—holding the bag!
At Edsa, we showed that we can boot out a dictator. With flowers and confetti we rejected the inhumanity of both Right and Left. Kabit-bisig we resolved that the Yellows will lead this country. We declared our faith in so-called bourgeois democratic forms: non-armed, peaceful, legal—with enough room for occupying, planking, texting, blogging, tweeting and noynoying. We had better make this work!
Meanwhile, Satur Ocampo and company have been in and out of Congress. Etta Rosales is chair of the Commission on Human Rights. Joel Rocamora heads the National Anti-Poverty Commission. May the Quimpo family find some consolation in this. May other "subversive families" like the Lacabas and the Hilaos come out with their memoirs. And may we never forget those who fell in the night, without seeing this dawn.
Mariel N. Francisco coauthored (with Fe Ma. Arriola) "The History of the Burgis" (GCF Books, 1987). She was head of the Education Committee of the anti-Marcos organization Kaakbay, founded by Sen. Jose Diokno in 1980.

I FOUND Sanho Tree's article "The War at Home" (May-June
2003) enjoyably thought-provoking.
I FOUND Sanho Tree's article "The War at Home" (May-June 2003) enjoyably thought-provoking. One obvious question the article raises is why do we prohibit (some) drugs but not alcohol, which to me has similar effects and serves a similar purpose in our society? Why did we fail to prohibit alcohol, but succeed in prohibiting drugs?
It's crucial that any "harm reduction" approach keep firmly in mind that ultimately the best way to reduce harm caused by drugs is reduce the demandidentify and eliminate the reasons people use drugs. To me, that effort would not be so much about influencing individual choices as it would be about addressing problems in our culture and economic system.

yeah i have a few that sound like that.. Pretty easy to make too in FL …It's just a subwoofer tone with a downwards glide.
hehehe… ok i give it up with music
i know… i create a few but, its difficult to make the same like in the movie
EDIT : awwwwwwwww…. i'm in with the other profile

Idraw, dada was you ??
Well I uploaded it here.. hope it works for ya
Thanks Adrien. I'm gonna pick that one up because it will still be useful, but thats not quite it. ITS VERY CLOSE though. Everything is perfect except the very beginning. I guess it doesnt help listening to it with laptop speakers but the beginning seems a little too electronic…where as the one I am looking for hits a little bit harder in the beginning…if that makes any sense.
yes it was me :D…..... i started with a other profile….. for flash
i am done with an emoticon pack and will upload it now….. i hope all gonna like it
Hey, yeah it has a Slight fade in and just short of being a pure sine wave.. has some triangle in the middle so it has a touch of that electronic feel.. I thought I detected that in the drop on the clip.. but hey, I'll upload one without the triangle in the mids – just a sine wave with less fade-in so a harder start.. we'll see how that works for you.. and dont listen on laptop speakers lol get headphones at least
I love you lol In the most hetro-sexual way of course
No worries, same here, I knew from the first clubbing that we'd be getting along, but I couldnt tell you right then cause you ran off right after you punched the toddler in the face!
How this workin for you then? Hope it's ok.. still not right? ok I makea more, whassamattafayou eh?
