good to hear mate... doing things right takes a little longer, but is best in the end. and now you have a load of power up front for other stuff!
your left grip is colder (you didn't say left but i think i know) because you didn't insulate the heater from the bars. there is a plastic throttle tube on the right to insulate... and the left you should tape with insulating tape like so:
if you have the grips on already no panic. once warm'd up they will even out. if the grips are not on i would take the left off again and tape it up with electricians insulating tape (a few good layers like 2mm of electrical tape will be ok if you don't have insulating tape). then if the glue is not sticky just tape them tight with electrical tape and a little contact cement.

BioWare Discusses Star Wars: The Old Republic's Legacy Achievements
Posted on April 4, 2013 AT 04:01am
Now you may be thinking, an MMO is adding achievements so what? Well just hold your horses for a second because these are Legacy Achievements, a whole different ball game.
Instead of the usual per character achievements that most MMOs offer, BioWare is using Star Wars: The Old Republic's Legacy system to track achievements across all of your characters. This allows you to earn achievement progress no matter which charcter you wish to play with, and what's even better is that you only have to unlock each one once.
Veterans will also be pleased to hear that a lot of achievements will be back dated and awarded upon logging in to 2.0. Only achievements that require killing a certain number of mobs or ones that can't be tracked via codec entries will be locked.

After thousands of parents started coming forward with complaints, the Consumer Product Safety Commission has launched an investigation into the Dry Max technology used in Pampers new Swaddlers and Cruisers diapers.
The diapers have been on the market for only about four weeks. Pampers, owned by Proctor and Gamble, says the new technology makes the diapers the thinnest and driest on the market. The company says the diapers were tested on more than 20,000 babies - making it the most tested diaper in the company's history.
But many parents are claiming the diapers are causing their babies to have severe diaper rashes, blisters, burns, and bleeding. A Facebook crusade was launched against the new Pampers. So far, more than 2,000 people have joined in the conversation. On Thursday afternoon, a spokesperson for Pampers posted a note on the Facebook site to refute the claims. Within only one hour, there were more than 400 responses.
Tina Mendez and Chazsity Medina, both of San Antonio, say their babies had bleeding blisters caused by the diapers.
A Pampers spokesperson out of New York gave a phone interview to KENS 5. Bryan McCleary told us, Our heart goes out to anybaby and mom who are experiencing diaper rash. But he said the claims aren't possibly true. The materials in Pampers do not cause chemical burns and there's no evidence from the people who called us or the research we've done that a single baby has experienced a skin safety issue as a result of Pampers with Dry Max.
McCleary also sent KENS 5 an interview that the Pampers company conducted with a pediatrician from New York's Mount Sinai Medical Center. The doctor said that it wasn't possible the diapers caused chemical burns, and the research does not support it. You can see her comments in their entirety by clicking on the links below.
Pampers says anyone with any questions on the diapers should call 1-800-PAMPERS.

It is conveniently located for skiing at Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows, Northstar, or Homewood ski areas.

The home has a 180 degree view of the mountains and Lake Tahoe. You can view Alpine Meadows to the west, and look across Tahoe at the Casinos and Heavenly Valley to the south, 27 miles away. The setting is particularly nice during the summer, when you can enjoy the large decks for relaxing, dining, or cocktails at sunset. This home offers the best Lake Tahoe has to give.

Kathy and I have been Tahoe people forever. We have had season ski passes at Squaw and Diamond Peak for 40 years and have regarded Tahoe as our summer and winter home for nearly 20 years. We live part time in Los Altos, California, but we spend the winters and the summers at our home in Incline Village, NV, skiing in the winter,and playing golf, hiking, and bicycle riding in the summer. Tahoe is our home.
Leo and Kathy Craft purchased this house in 1977
After renting 'ski cabins' for the winter for many years, we decided to build one that was large enough to accommodate our friends and ski cabin members. This is why our home has eight bedrooms. We wanted privacy for ourselves and our friends. For several years we used our home as a ski cabin and as our friends moved away or bought their own places, we turned our home into a vacation rental. Since we live in Incline Village, only 20 minutes from Tahoe City, we are able to spend 'down time' remodeling and maintaining our home. Every year we make improvements and love doing them.
One of the many reasons we chose this location was because it has easy winter access. It is hard to imagine, but it is down hill to our house and down hill back to the main road. We have never owned a four wheel drive vehicle, so easy, chain free, winter access has always been essential.
And last, we chose this specific location because it is on a large lot in a private and quiet setting. From our living room you cannot see other homes and very few cars enter our neighborhood.
Our most enjoyable time at our home is spent either on the deck, by the fireplace, skiing (in the winter) or hanging out at the lake (in the summer). Skylandia beach is a five minute walk down a beautiful forest path. We love walking down to the beach before sunset, sitting on the pier, and enjoying a glass of wine and a beautiful Tahoe sunset. This time of the day is also the time when the last of the pleasure boats are passing and heading toward the West Shore and Tahoe City marinas. The other benefit that we enjoy about our location is that we are walking distance, along a walking/bicycle path to the grocery stores and restaurants of Tahoe City. It is about a 25 minute walk or a 5 minute bicycle ride. Traffic can be bad around Tahoe City and having this convenience is sometimes invaluable.
Just wanted to let you know that we had an amazing time last weekend and immensely enjoyed your home! It was THE cleanest and most organized house I have ever rented :) (and we have stayed in many homes)
I stopped by to visit my family at this great house and was impressed by the size and comfortability for all of the guests. There was plenty of room to not crowd each other and the lake is a short walk down the hill.
I hope to bring my family here next year to celebrate the holidays as it really felt like Xmas and being here even for a short time was special.
We had 3 generations in attendance, ranging in age from 72 to 2. The house is large, well-equipped, well laid out, comfortable, and well maintained. Large enough to be together when you like, with room for privacy when you prefer that. The location is very nice. It's about a 8-10 minute wooded walk to a nice sandy beach on the lake. It's a short drive to Tahoe City.
Small kids. There are two decks, and since it's on a mountainside, the upper deck is very high above the ground. The pickets on the decks are very far apart and would be easy for a small child to fall through. Leo has a mesh he puts up to fill the gaps between the pickets when little ones are resident. If you're going to have small kids along, be sure to tell Leo in advance so the mesh is installed.
Oldsters. The three flights of stairs can be a lot of climbing, especially if chasing a 2 year old. On the other hand, exercise is always a good thing!
The Jacuzzi. The house rules call for over-chlorinating the Jacuzzi. The result is it makes your eyes hurt! On the other hand, it wasn't grungy, as is often the case at rentals.
The downstairs kitchen/living room is well equipped as a place for young adults to escape to. The lower kitchen is not well equipped for cooking, but it doesn't need to be since the seating downstairs is relatively small, and you're unlikely to use that kitchen for large meals. The Jacuzzi is on the deck on that level.
Leo was very responsive to email inquiries. We had some minor breakage while there, and he was fair with us in every instance.
Just before arrival, Leo will send you a mountain of house rules and instructions. These caused us concern that he would be heavy handed about the return of the security deposit. (Fairly enough, a reasonable amount of the deposit is routinely charged for cleaning, assuming the house is left in good order.) I've concluded the reason the house is in good order is because renters are routinely concerned about the many house rules and not getting their security deposit returned, so the place does not show signs of abuse. Bottom line: Leo will be fair if you take good care of his very comfortable house.
We are from Hawaii and have stayed at this spacious 8 bedroom home for about 4 years now for 1 week periods. We basically go to Tahoe to ski and this home's location is convenient to Northstar and Squaw Valley and many of our favorite restaruants.
This house has everything! Great, accurate photos of the home helped us make our decision.. Comfy yet classy. When we're there we sometimes hook up a Karaoke machine and sing. Then we go out to ski, dine, and shop. Although the home is well suited for families, we have 8-12 adults and treasure the privacy of 8 bedrooms.
Owners were always available and returned phone calls if we had questions.
I would highly recommend this home.
I will second the other review - the owners are wonderful to work with and make the overall experience of booking very pleasant. I unfortunately was not able to stay in the house as something came up and I was unable to, but I truly wish that I had had the opportunity to go...By far and away the nicest owners I have ever interacted with through VRBO!

Middle English word meaning "conscience" (early 13c.), "reason, intellect" (c.1300), from in (adv.) + wit (n.). Not related to Old English inwit, which meant "deceit." Joyce's use in "Ulysses" (1922), which echoes the 14c. work "Ayenbite of Inwyt," is perhaps the best-known example of the modern use of the word as a conscious archaism.
Þese ben also þy fyve inwyttys: Wyl, Resoun, Mynd, Ymaginacioun, and Thoght [Wyclif, c.1380]
If ... such good old English words as inwit and wanhope should be rehabilitated (and they have been pushing up their heads for thirty years), we should gain a great deal. [Robert Bridges, 1922]

ClassicsOnline Home » STRAUSS II, J.: Edition - Vol. 16
The Johann
Strauss Edition
Johann Strauss
II, the most famous and enduringly successful of 19th-century light music
composers, was born in Vienna on 25 October 1825. Building upon the firm
musical foundations laid by his father, Johann Strauss I (1804-1849) and Joseph
Lanner (1801-1843), the younger Johann (along with his brothers, Joseph and
Eduard) achieved so high a development of the classical Viennese waltz that it
became as much a feature of the concert hall as of the ballroom. For more than
half a century Johann II captivated not only Vienna but also the whole of
Europe and America with his abundantly tuneful waltzes, polkas, quadrilles and
marches. The thrice-married 'Waltz King' later turned his attention to the
composition of operetta, and completed 16 stage works besides more than 500
orchestral compositions – including the most famous of all waltzes, The Blue
Danube (1867). Johann Strauss II died in Vienna on 3 June 1899.
The Marco Polo
Strauss Edition is a milestone in recording history, presenting, for the first
time ever, the entire orchestral output of the 'Waltz King'. Despite their
supremely high standard of musical invention, the majority of the compositions
have never before been commercially recorded and have been painstakingly
assembled from archives around the world. All performances featured in this
series are complete and, wherever possible, the works are played in their
original instrumentation as conceived by the master orchestrator himself,
Johann Strauss II.
Seufzer "Scherz-Polka (Liguorian Sighs, Joke Polka) op. 57
The political
troubles in Vienna during 1848 inspired a number of pro-Revolutionary
compositions from the 22-year-old Johann Strauss – amongst them the cheerfully
satirical polka Liguorianer Seufzer, which he wrote upon his return to
Vienna that May following a lengthy concert tour to the Balkans. The polka took
its name from the Liguorians, a Jesuit religious order known also as the
Redemptorists, much disliked in Vienna because they endorsed Chancellor Klemens
Metternich's hated police-state. After the outbreak of Revolution in Vienna on
13 March 1848 the Liguorians were temporarily expelled from the city, and
Strauss took the oppor1unity to ridicule its members with this 'joke polka' –
complete with its caterwauling Trio ("Ligouri ci gouri gouriani ani
ani") mocking the name of the Order's founder, the recently canonised
Alfonso Maria dei Liguori (1696-1787).
Not surprisingly,
this enter1aining work found great and immediate favour with the Viennese public
when Strauss first conducted it on 3 June 1848 at 'Zur blauen Flasche', a
popular tavern in the suburb of Lerchenfeld. Similar expressions of enthusiasm
were not, however, for1hcoming from either the authorities or the official
censor -who promptly confiscated the polka's first piano edition soon after its
Walzer (Singers' Journeys, Waltz) op. 41
esteemed Gentlemen! Your splendid work, so successful for Art, which has found
the most brilliant recognition in all circles of Vienna, prompts me also to
give you a feeble demonstration of the fact that I very much enjoy your
excellent achievements, and how stimulating an effect these have had on me. It
is up to everyone to work within his own sphere and in his own way, and therefore
I am being so forward as to make you the offer of accepting the dedication of a
waltz entitled 'Die Sängerfahrten', composed by me for this purpose. If
the results of my meagre talent give you only a part of the pleasure that your
immense vigour has given to me, then it will find its most handsome reward
With these words the 21-year-old Johann
Strauss respectfully addressed himself for the first time to the influential
Wiener Männergesang-Verein (Vienna Men's Choral Association) on 9 June 1847,
just two days before its members left for Greifenstein on one of their artistic
excursions (dubbed 'Sängerfahrten') into the surrounding countryside of Vienna.
Reportedly with an augmented body of seventy musicians, Strauss gave the
première of his graceful and richly-instrumented orchestral waltz Sängerfahrten
at a charity performance in the Theater an der Wien on 19 June 1847, and the
Männergesang-Verein's swiftly written letter of acceptance guaranteed that the
published piano edition of the work bore a dedication "to the honourable
Men's Choral Association in Vienna".
(The Bohemian Girl Quadrille) op. 24
The Zigeunerin-Quadrille
was the second of three dance music compositions by the younger Johann Strauss
to draw upon material from a stage work by the Irish-born composer Michael
William Balfe (1808-70). In this instance Strauss arranged his quadrille on
melodies from the most successful of all Balfe's operas, The Bohemian Girl,
based on Miguel de Cervantes's novel La Preciosa. The opera had its
première at the Drury Lane Theatre, London, on 27 November 1843, and was
mounted at Vienna's Theater an der Wien (as Die Zigeunerin) on 24 July 1846,
where it ran for thirty-one performances until the end of March 1848.
At this time a successful theatrical
première was the signal for the outbreak of fierce composition as Vienna's
composers of dance music, above all the elder Johann Strauss, vied with each
other to arrange quadrilles on themes from the new work. Both Strausses, father
and son, were attracted to Die Zigeunerin, and each hastened to weave
its melodies into the six strictly regimented figures comprising the popular
ballroom dance. In this instance the race was won by the younger man: at the
very latest his Zigeunerin-Quadrille was first played at Dommayer's
Casino in the suburb of Hietzing on 2 August 1846. Not until over a week later,
at a summer festival in the Volksgarten on 11 August, was his father able to
present his own Zigeunerin-Quadrille.
Johann the Younger's Zigeunerin-Quadrille shares with his father's work
a total of six themes from Balfe's opera, only two of which (including the
second theme of the attractive Finale section) feature in identical positions
within their respective quadrilles. It is also interesting that neither man
made use of what has become the most famous aria in the opera, "I dream't
I dwelt in marble halls". The opening figure (Pantalon) in the younger
Strauss's quadrille quotes complete from the exhilarating Act I Galop in The
Bohemian Girl, while perhaps rather surprisingly, the father's work omits
it altogether.
(Express Mail Polka) op. 159
Although not
designated as such on its printed edition, the Schnellpost-Polka has the
distinction of being the very first 'Schnell-Polka' (quick polka) in the
Strauss family's repertoire. The hectic and strenuous galop, so popular in
Vienna's ballrooms during the late-1830s and 1840s, had been deemed injurious
to health and had been outlawed by the authorities. The composers of dance
music were obliged to respect this ruling, and it was only in the 1850s that
Johann Strauss began to introduce the (only slightly!) less frenetic Schnell-Polka.
Yet the Schnellpost-Polka seems to have caused little interest when the
composer conducted it for the first time at a St. Katharine's Day ball on 27
November 1854 in Schwender's new entertainment establishment in the suburb of
Rudolfsheim. In common with other of Johann's compositions launched during that
autumn, the new polka found an indifferent response from a public much more
concerned with the ravages of a cholera epidemic in the city.
The late
Professor Dr Max Schönherr commented that the title was doubtless suggested to
Strauss by two Viennese publications – Moritz Saphir's Schnellpost für
Literatur, Theater und Geselligkeit and the earlier Wiener
Schnellpost – although in his choice of title, and in the style of the
composition, Johann indicated a dance piece which was to be played quickly.
Walzer (Salvos of Joy, Waltz) op. 171
The extent to
which the younger Johann Strauss endeavoured to ingratiate himself with the
Imperial authorities – and indeed with the Austrian Emperor himself – after his
support for the revolutionaries during the events of 1848 had proved prejudicial
to his career, is discernible in the many compositions he wrote testifying to
his new-found allegiance for the monarchy. When, therefore, on 12 June 1855 the
Emperor Franz Josef I journeyed to Galicia – that portion of Poland lying on
the northern slopes of the Carpathians which constituted an Austrian crownland
between 1772 and 1918 – his return afforded Strauss a further opportunity to
display his loyalty. For a festival in the Volksgarten on 17 July 1855
celebrating the monarch's arrival back in Vienna, the young composer wrote his
waltz Freuden-Salven, in which the 'salvos' of the title are effectively
'fired' by Strauss in a series of forte chords most clearly heard in the
Introduction and opening waltz number. Moreover, Johann took no chance that his
allegiance might be overlooked, and ensured that the piano edition of his new
work proclaimed on its title page: "Freuden-Salven Walzer...on the safe
return of his Imperial-Royal Apostolic Majestythe Emperer Franz Josef Ion 9
July 1855".
Fürst Bariatinsky-Marsch
(Prince Bariatinsky March) op. 212
Putti merrily
playing trumpets and timpani adorn the cover illustration for the first piano
edition of this march, named after the Russian Prince Alexander Ivanovich
Bariatinsky (1815-79). In 1856 Bariatinsky had been appointed
commander-in-chief of the Caucasian army and deputy to the Tsar, and was later
created a field marshal. Johann composed the march during his 1858 concert
season at the Vauxhall Pavilion in Pavlovsk, and conducted its first performance
there on 10 August (= 29 July, Russian calendar). It is possible that the
Prince may have attended Strauss's concerts and expressed particular
appreciation for the latter's waltz Juristen-Ball-Tänze (op. 177) since its
opening melody is used as the principal theme of the Trio in the Fürst
Bariatinsky-Marsch. Moreover there is, perhaps coincidentally, a passing
resemblance between the march's opening melody and the main theme of Strauss's
op. 176, Armen-Ball-Polka.
After the final
Pavlovsk concert Johann travelled to Moscow and thence to Vienna, where he
reappeared in public at the head of the Strauss Orchestra in the Volksgarten on
21 November 1858 for a 'Festival Concert on the safe return from St.
Petersburg'. Alongside the other compositions written for his most recent
Russian season he took the opportunity to introduce his home audience to the Bariatinsky-Marsch,
but the work evidently found little favour and thereafter featured only rarely
in his concerts.
(Students Polka) op. 263
On 24 February
1862 the impressive and spacious interior of the Imperial Redoutensaal in the
Hofburg was the setting for the first ever Students' Ball to be organised in
Vienna. The glittering event was held under the patronage of a dozen ladies
from leading Viennese society, and the Strauss Orchestra was engaged to provide
the dance music. Johann paid his respects with two specially composed works,
the Patronessen Walzer op. 264 (Volume 18) and the Studenten-Polka.
The cheerful
scene of carousing students depicted on the title page of the Studenten-Polka
is reflected in the mood of this lighthearted carnival-time work which Strauss
based on popular student songs and dedicated "to the Gentlemen University
Students in Vienna". The main section of the polka quotes "Gaudeamus
igitur" and "Sind wir nicht zur Herrlichkeit geboren?", while
"Wohlauf nun getrunken den herrlichen Wein" provides the source
material for the Trio.
Motoren, Walzer
(Motors, Waltz) op. 265
Despite the
growing musical stature of his younger brother, Josef, Johann Strauss once more
reigned supreme over the numerous festivities of the busy 1862 Vienna Carnival.
Among more than sixty balls at which Johann conducted during the season was
that of the technical students at Vienna University, held in the Sofienbad-Saal
on 10 February. The wide vocabulary employed by the ever-innovative engineering
profession provided an unending source of apposite titles for Vienna's dance
composers and for his new waltz, dedicated to the technical students, Johann
lighted upon one of the more obvious – Motoren.
By the close of
the 1862 Carnival 'campaign' Strauss was physically drained. Soan afterwards
Vienna's newspapers carried the news that Eduard Strauss, Johann's youngest
brother, was to make his début with the family orchestra that April as a
conductor of concerts. It is clear that Johann desired Eduard, rather than
Josef, to deputise for him at the head of the Strauss orchestra during his
absences abroad, and to be the interpreter of his (Johann's) music.
Éljen Magyar!
Schnell-Polka (Long Live the Magyar! Quick polka) op. 332
Immediately after
the close of the official 1869 Vienna Carnival calendar, Johann and Josef
Strauss began preparations for their joint Russian summer season of concerts in
Pavlovsk from 9 May (= 27 April, Russian calendar) until 10 October (= 28
September). But a number of concert engagements had to be fulfilled before
their departure, including a journey by the Strauss orchestra under the
direction of all three brothers, Johann, Josef and Eduard, to the Hungarian
town of Pest on the banks of the Danube. To coincide with the opening of Pest's
imposing new Redoutensaal building, the brothers had organised two concerts
there on 16 and 17 March. It was at the first of these that Johann conducted
his quick polka Éljen a Magyar!, composed especially for the occasion
and dedicated "to the Hungarian Nation". From his early days as a
composer Johann was as much at home with the music of Hungary as he was with
that of his native Vienna, and this exciting work, further enhanced at its
première by the participation of the Budapest Men's Choral Association, was
triumphantly applauded and had to be repeated several times. The Coda of the
work features a fleeting quotation from the Rákóczi March, which Berlioz
had earlier utilised in his Damnation of Faust (1846), but which owes
its origins to the patriotic Magyar Rákóczi song.
La Berceuse,
Quadrille (The Lullaby Quadrille) op. 194
The Vienna
Carnival of 1857 was not marked by any particular high spot. Since the Austrian
Emperor and Empress were in Italy no balls were held at Court, and only a very
few festivities took place in the palaces of the nobility and embassy
buildings. Johann and Josef Strauss were nevertheless kept extremely busy with
the usual round of dedications which they were commissioned to compose for the
numerous balls of the capital's various associations and professional
organisations. Their tally of new works played at that year's 'Garnival Revue'
totalled thirteen, nine of them by Johann – amongst them his quadrille La
Berceuse. After much discussion and delay, the nobility and townsfolk of
Vienna had pledged their support for the establishment of day nurseries, and a
fund-raising Society Ball was held in the Sofienbad-Saal on 2 February 1857 to
further this worthwhile project. Strauss's suitably-entitled La Berceuse was
written especially for the occasion. Of interest is a letter written by Johann
in May from Pavlovsk to his publisher in Vienna, advising that he was working
on the score for the 'Trenis' figure (= 4th section) of the quadrille. From
this one may infer that either the first performance lacked this particular
figure (as was customary in quadrilles danced elsewhere in Europe) or, more
likely, that the composer was not satisfied with his original version.
Walzer (Civic Airs, Waltz) op. 306
Those carefree
revellers at the numerous dance festivities of Vienna's 1866 Carnival season
could not have known that within a few months Austria would be defeated by the
might of Prussia in a bitter war which would mark the further disintegration of
the Austro-Hungarian Empire and change her political fortunes forever. But for
the meantime the Viennese lost themselves in the many delights of their
traditional 'Fasching' (Carnival). The three Strauss brothers participated in
the various musical events, providing a record number of new compositions – 22
in all. Among the seven contributed by Johann was his lovely waltz Bürgerweisen,
dedicated to "the Gentlemen Committee Members of the Civic Ball", and
first heard at the 'Bürger-Ball' on 24 January 1866 in the magnificent
surroundings of the Imperial Redoutensaal.
Johann was later
to re-use melodies from his Bürgerweisen Walzer for the pastiche
Manhattan Waltzes, which he arranged for his American visit of 1872. This work,
in turn, he adapted, and it saw publication in Vienna the following year as Walzer-Bouquet
Brautschau, Polka
(Looking for a Bride, Polka) op. 417
Der Zigeunerbaron
('The Gypsy Baron'),
Johann Strauss's tenth operetta, opened at Vienna's Theater an der Wien on 24
October 1885 – the eve of the composer's sixtieth birthday. The libretto's
colourful setting, inspired by Mór Jokai's novel Saffi, has a factual
background rooted in history, and Strauss's musical score achieved a perfect
fusion of Hungarian passion and Viennese sentimentality. The première was a
triumph, and the critic of the Fremdenblatt observed: "The riotous
applause which greeted Herr Strauss, and which broke out after every theme of
the Overture, repeated itself after each vocal number...Fully half the operetta
had to be encored".
Adopting his, by
now, customary practice, Strauss reworked many of the operetta's melodies into
separate orchestral numbers. For the most part these six pieces – a waltz, a
quadrille and four polkas – were first heard during 1885 at concerts in the
Musikverein given by the Strauss Orchestra. Such was the case with the polka Brautschau,
whose première the composer's brother Eduard conducted on Sunday 29 November
1885. The work has, rather surprisingly, not held its place in concert
repertoire, for it features music from two of the operetta's most popular
numbers: Zsupán's Act 1 aria "Ja, das Schreiben und das Lesen" and
the Act 2 trio "Darum nur klopfe, klopfe, klopfe". The polka's title
derives from the Act 1 maidens' chorus, "Hochzeitskuchen, bitte zu
versuchen, kommt und schaut, hier die Braut!" ('Try the wedding cake, come
and look, here's the bride!')

State Philharmonic Orchestra (Košice)
The East
Slovakian town of Košice boasts a long and distinguished musical tradition, as
part of a province that once provided Vienna with musicians. The State
Philharmonic Orchestra is of relatively recent origin and was established in
1968 under the conductor Bystrik Rezucha. Subsequent principal conductors have
included Stanislav Macura and Ladislav Slovák, the latter succeeded in 1985 by
his pupil Richard Zimmer. The orchestra has toured widely in Eastern and
Western Europe and plays an important part in the Košice Musical Spring and the
Košice International Organ Festival.
For Marco Polo
the orchestra has made the first compact disc recordings of rare works by
Granville Bantock and Joachim Raff. Writing on the last of these, one critic
praised the orchestra for its competence comparable to that of the major
orchestras of Vienna and Prague. The orchestra has contributed several
successful volumes to the complete compact disc Johann Strauss II and for Naxos
has recorded a varied repertoire.
The orchestra has
received outstanding reviews of its volumes in the complete Johann Strauss
edition. Gramophone praised in "sparkling playing" and Fanfare
its "good feel for the music".
Alfred Walter
Alfred Waller was born in Southern
Bohemia in 1929 of Austrian parents. He studied at the University of Graz and
in 1948 was appointed assistant conductor to the Opera of Ravensburg. At the
age of 22 he became conductor of the Graz Opera, where he continued until 1965,
while serving at Bayreuth as assistant to Hans Knappertsbusch and Karl Böhm.
From 1966 until 1969 he was Principal Conductor of the Durban Symphony
Orchestra in South Africa, followed by a period of 15 years as General Director
of Music in Münster.
Alfred Waller has
appeared as a guest conductor in various parts of the world. In Vienna he has
worked as guest conductor at the State Opera and in 1986 was given the title of
Professor by the Austrian Government. In 1980 he was awarded the Golden Medal
of the International Gustav Mahler Society.

Keeping history alive: Elon Archives retrieves important artifacts from university development
Tentative plans to tear down the former Pendulum office and bank have been made for early February. Photo by Tracy Raetz.
As progress continues on the construction of a new building in downtown Elon, bricks from the building on the corners of Williamson and W. College avenues will be archived by Elon University. The former home of The Pendulum office, which also once housed a bank, represents a piece of Elon's history, according to archivist Katie Nash.
Nash said this is the first time she's requested material to archive and in the past, people have sent in objects they have found.
"One thing that started this was when Alamance installed their elevator," she said. "They came across charred bricks in the foundation, bricks from the old main administration building."
The Office of the President also sent a piece to the archives from the siding of the old Jordan Center that was torn down.
"I thought I should keep up with it and be more proactive about asking for things," Nash said.
As for the former Pendulum office, Nash said bricks should be archived because there is a story being told.
"There's a potential for a display, that crops up every now and then," she said. "While there are no definite plans right now, there's always the potential."
One example she gave was a possible display from the Jordan Center siding.
"The tradition was to put Christmas lights over Jordan Center," she said. "We may one day have a Jordan Center anniversary with a display of the siding and pictures of the buildings with lights."
For Pam Richter, former editor-in- chief of The Pendulum, the artifacts represent the development of the university as well as the Town of Elon.
"It's important to have artifacts because we need to see where we've come from throughout the history and see how the school has changed,"
Richter said.
Richter arrived on campus in fall 2007 and immediately became involved with The Pendulum, which moved to the new location in the building in October 2007.
"The little time it was there, it was a fixture of campus," she said.
Artifacts are not the only things held in Elon's archives.
Photographs, departmental files and university publications are stored, as well.
"It's anything the university is producing and generating, we have," Nash said. "Basically, it tells the story of the university."
Archived objects come from across the board, she said, and come in a variety of formats that make it interesting and fun.
"We're always looking for artifacts that tell a story and aren't just pictures or long text written," she said. "When you look at it and think it's interesting, it makes the display or story you're telling more exciting."

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Question from Archaic954
Console equipping offhand weapons?
Ok, I realise that this may be not allowed on here, but im trying to find out whether or not someone has stumbled across something about using the player.equipitem command to equip something in the offhand This if very aggrivating to continually have to re-equip a weapon in my offhand after using a bow. Much rather create a macro to just do it for me.
especially with the Midas Bound Dagger mod... Great for dagger spell/thieves like me :P.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
3 years ago
If anyone has already figured this out, mind sending me the command through my alt emails?
I open in sandbox so no viruses...
3 years ago
Actually, the true reason for my asking is because I am trying to create a Bat or Script to dual-wield some bound daggers from a skyrimnexus mod. obviously its rather annoying to constantly have to cast bound dagger.....
Anything on that?
3 years ago
If you equip your weapons in both hands, and then use a shortcut key (1-8, must be from your favorites list) to equip your bow, when you press the key for the bow again, you unequip the bow and equip whatever you had equipped before equipping the bow.
Example: You have a steel dagger in each hand. You also have a Elven bow in your favorites list labeled with shortcut key 1. When you press 1, you equip your elven bow. When you press 1 again after that, you unequip your bow and equip both steel daggers again. No need for console codes.

Sexual pressure common in school, University of Memphis study finds
Sexual harassment may be on the wane in the workplace, but in school the behavior is rampant, according to a University of Memphis study that shows 90 percent of Shelby County teens have experienced such trouble at school.
The list of infractions is long, from name-calling to quid pro quo arrangements for sex. The abuse happens in classrooms, hallways, bathrooms and stairwells.
While a vast majority of students in the study reported harassment from their peers, nearly 25 percent said it came from adults in their schools.
Males and females reported equal numbers of advances or incidents, the report said, but girls were more upset by them.
"We see them taking more sick days, skipping class or generally feeling unsafe in school," said Lynda Sagrestano, director of the Center for Research on Women at the university and the head researcher in the project funded with $50,000 from the Urban Child Institute.
She reported the findings Wednesday on a study involving 590 Memphis-area students, ages 11-19, from public and private schools. While national information on sexual harassment in school has been available since the 1980s, this is the first study of the behavior in Memphis and Shelby County.
Particularly among girls, the incidents resulted in psychological distress, including eating disorders and anxiety.
"Girls, you could be suing," said Deborah Clubb, executive director of the center. "We are going to make this a priority with school boards and put pressure on school systems that don't want to respond. We can be litigious, too. This is against the law."
Nationally, 80 percent of teens report sexual harassment at school, including sexual comments, people staring at parts of their bodies, making sexual or obscene gestures or persistently asking for dates when interest is not reciprocated.
The data shows repeated sexual harassment not only decreases student self-esteem and psychological health, but increases the numbers of at-risk sexual behaviors students engage in.
"I think their environment is so sexualized, that it becomes a slippery slope from talking about sex to engaging in real sexual behavior," Sagrestano said.
The overall message was that schools should beef up anti-harassment policies, posting prominent signs to tell students how to report incidents and stressing the need for a quick followup by administrators.

so the function would be something like
primesearch::Int -> [Int]. For example,
primesearch 4 = [2,3,5,7]. Would you need to use the sieve function somehow? or is there another way of doing it?
To generate the first
If you want to earnestly use primes, there are already packages on hackage which provide prime generators, for example arithmoi and NumberSieves. There are others, but as far as I know, all the others are significantly slower.
If it's for homework or similar, which method is the most appropriate depends on what the exercise shall teach.
Check out this link. It shows several approaches, ranging from simple to understand to efficient.
Another fun article is http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~oneill/papers/Sieve-JFP.pdf. It is referenced by qrl's link, but is worth checking out on its own. It provides better explanations than qrl's link, but does not provide nearly as many implementations.
Here's the fastest of the simplest, in the low ranges of up to a million primes or so:
(thanks to Daniel Fischer for adding this little thing called explicit type signature here, thus making it work on unboxed arrays).
As for the JFP article, it misses the key reason for the Turner's code abysmal inefficiency, - in fact dismisses it as irrelevant, - presents the sieve's definition in imprecise and confusing manner, and offers very confused and incoherent verbal explanations, together with sound and enlightening math analysis. As for the main dish, after all the build-up it doesn't even make any claims as to its priority queue-based code's run-time complexity. And in fact, its empirical complexity is worse than the optimal, theoretical value (plus the final code in article has major flaw, corrected later in the distributed code file).
edit: this was in response to your title, but in the text it seems you want to generate a set number of primes, not primes up to a given value. The upper limit value is easy to over-estimate, so that

Lincolnshire Area GuideLincolnshire Wolds near Fulletby Image courtesy of Flickr user Lincolnian (Brian)
Lincolnshire is a county in the east of England and the second-largest county in England. The county town, where the council is based, is Lincoln.
General subregions are the Lincolnshire Fens, the Carrs, the Lincolnshire Wolds, the Humber Estuary and North Sea coast, and the Lincolnshire Vales. The Fens is a marshlands near the Wash and is particularly good for agricultural purposes. The Carrs are similar to the Fens, but in the north of the county. The Wolds' rolling hills are protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Humber Estuary and North Sea are the waters shaping the towns of Grimsby and Scunthorpe and the Fens. The Vales combine limestone hills and marshy fens into an area of extreme natural beauty.
Most of the land is used for agriculture, and the fens in particular are used to grow much of England's vegetables and grains.
Significant conurbations in Lincolnshire include Lincoln, Boston and Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Grantham and Skegness.
About 713,600 people live in Lincolnshire, of those 443,800 are of a working age and 149,200, almost 21%, are 65 and over. The county is attracting a growing number of pensioners, largely because of its low property prices and the prevalence of services for the elderly.
Lincolnshire is one of the least ethnically diverse areas in the country, with 98.5% of the population describing themselves as white, though recently some people from ethnic minority communities have been moving into towns like Lincoln and Boston.
Lincolnshire still uses the Eleven plus system to determine who may go to a grammar school, so there is usually at least one grammar and one standard secondary school in most towns.
Primary schools rated outstanding by Ofsted include Reepham Church of England Primary School and The Edward Richardson Primary School, Tetford, though the vast majority of schools are rated as good by the organisation.
The outstanding secondary schools include The Queen Elizabeth's High School in Gainsborough and Grantham College.
Lincolnshire is not the most well-connected county in England, largely because there are no major urban areas and it is not really in between any major areas. Most roads are single carriageway A roads and B roads. The M180 does go through the north of the county, but it splits into two dual carriageway trunk roads instead of remaining one major thoroughfare.
Trains do run through the county, but not very many compared to other counties. Grantham is on the East Coast Mainline, which runs from London King's Cross to Edinburgh Waverley. Lincoln station has a service to London St Pancras via Nottingham, and Cleethorpes, Grimsby, Barnetby-le-Wold and Scunthorpe are connected to Manchester Airport and Sheffield through the TransPennine rail service. Skegness, Boston, Sleaford and Grantham are connected to Nottingham through East Midlands Trains services. Stamford has services to Peterborough and Leicester, and an East Midlands service from Norwich to Liverpool goes through Grantham.
The county's airport is the Humberside Airport, located between Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Lincoln.
Amenities and Shopping
Lincolnshire makes the most of its open space and agricultural nature in its amenities and shopping options.
Museums, theatres and venues
The Collection Art & Archaeology in Lincoln is essentially two museums in one. The Art Collection boasts a large collection of works of art and decorative pieces, and the Archaeology Collection has fossils, ancient relics and exhibitions dedicated to the science of archaeology. The Burtey Fen Collection is a music hall which has a large collection of organs, including a fair ground organ, and other entertainment memorabilia. Gordon Boswell Romany Museum has one of the largest collections Romany vardo carts, which are also known as gypsy caravans. Grantham Museum is renowned for its display of Margaret Thatcher's famous blue suit and handbag, though it also has silver, portraits and more.
Normanby Hall and The North Ings Farm Museum are both dedicated to Lincolnshire's agricultural heritage. There are also museums dedicated to aviation, transport, fishing, brewing and the Lincolnshire waterways.
Despite the county's rural character, there are many theatres and venues in the towns and villages. Scunthorpe has the 2000-seat Baths Hall and the 20-21 Visual Arts Centre. Grimsby residents have the Grimsby Auditorium. The Broadbent Theatre is home to the Lindsey Rural Players. The North Kesteven Centre is an arts centre and theatre, and the Guildhall Arts Centre is in Grantham. The South Holland Centre in Spalding shows plays, comedy and live music, and Blackfriars Arts Centre in Boston shows both films and live performances. The Embassy Theatre Skegness puts on a very varied programme.
The Lincoln Agricultural Show has been on the go since 1884 and is one of the largest shows in England. Today, the two-day show has grown to include a crossbreed dog show, equine competition, a flower show, a massive food court featuring local produce, boutique shopping and more. The county also hosts smaller agricultural fairs such as the Deeping Show, the Heckington Show and the Corby Glen sheep fair.
The RAF Waddington Air Show is the largest RAF air shows. It features a Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, a Red Arrows flyover and classic aircraft and car shows. Fun fairs tour the county bringing rides, Grantham gingerbread and nougat and sideshows to punters throughout Lincolnshire.
The Lincoln Christmas Market is the oldest German-style Christmas market in the UK and is based on the Christmas market the city councilors' found in Lincoln's twin city of Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, Germany. Each year during late spring, the Spalding Flower Parade features tulip-decorated floats, marching bands and a Flower Queen.
There are also some more unusual festivals and events in the county. On the Monday before Easter, an annual auction over the grazing rights of White Bread Meadow that began in 1742 is held, where punters place their bids, and if, after a race between two schoolboys, no more bids have been placed, the highest bid wins. If a bid does come in while the boys are racing, they are usually made to race over and over until no one bids.
One of the oldest traditions in England, the Haxey Hood is a sporting event held on the 12th day of Christmas each year, where a large scrum of people push the hood, a large leather tube, to one of four pubs. The Tetford and Salmonby Scarecrow Festival is held each year, and The Belchford Downhill Challenge is a popular annual soapbox derby.
Lincolnshire does not have many facilities for sport, but there are a few teams in the area. Scunthorpe United play in Football League One and Lincoln City F.C. play in the Conference National league. Lincolnshire County Cricket Club are in the Minor Counties Championship. The Lincoln Hockey Club are based in the county town, and the Market Rasen Racecourse features National Hunt horseracing.
Racing motor vehicles is quite popular in the county. It has Cadwell Park for motor racing, the Scorpions speedway team and track in Scunthorpe and a stock car racing stadium near Skegness.
There are also two roller derby teams: Lincolnshire Bombers Roller Girls and the Imposters Rollergirls.
The main shopping centres are to be found in the biggest towns. Grimsby has Freshney Place Shopping Centre, with more than 100 shops, and The Parishes in Scunthorpe has all the top brands and a seven-screen cinema. Marshalls Yard, Gainsborough, is an old iron works that was converted into a shopping complex. The Spanish City Shopping Centre is right on Sutton on Sea's seafront. Skegness has the Hildreds Shopping Centre, and in Spalding is Lincolnshire's only outlet mall, Springfields Shopping & Festival Gardens
Each town, village and rural area has a selection of independent shops and stores, including farm shops, antiques stores, craft centres and garden centres, all scattered throughout the entire county.

After the North American Punjab Association (NAPA) wrote to U.S. President Barack Obama and senators, urging them against grant of visa to him, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi on Monday reached out to his Punjab counterpart Parkash Singh Badal over Sikh farmers facing imminent divestment of the land they have been tilling in Kutch for decades.
In its letters, NAPA expressed strong resentment at the Modi government's attempts to "displace" the Sikh farmers who had settled in Kutch over five decades ago. Mr. Modi denied that his government pressured them to return home and said the issue was politically motivated. A State government release said that Mr. Modi clarified to Mr. Badal that the impasse was the fallout of an Act brought in by the Congress 50 years ago and a government resolution of 1973. However, his government would ensure that no injustice was done to these farmers.
He said Sikh representatives met him in Gandhinagar on Sunday, and were happy with the government's efforts at resolving the issue.
Sikh cultivators settled in Kutch over 50 years ago when the area bordering the Rann and Pakistan was barren. Two years ago, as farmland prices shot up, the State government barred them from either selling, or taking loan or subsidy on their land under the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1958. It also stopped issuing certified copies of land records. The farmers challenged the order in the Gujarat High Court and won. However, the government filed an appeal in the Supreme Court against the order.
The farmers appealed to Mr. Badal, SGPC president A.S. Makkar and the National Commission for Minorities, which urged Gujarat to withdraw the case. On Saturday, Mr. Badal said he would take up the matter with BJP president Rajnath Singh and Mr. Modi. However, Mr. Modi blamed it on the Congress, saying the party had no right to speak about the Sikh community as it was responsible for the massacre of Sikhs in the 1984 riots in Delhi.

No scent worries

I am a LONG-time Perlier customer. I have sampled or used most of their products routinely. I would NOT live for long without their talcs, hand creams, body lotions or bath and shower products. I have used this soap package of 4 for as long as it has been offered on TSC! I LOVE it! I have also given it to several friends as a gift. The soaps are gentle and effective and I have never even taken NOTE of the scents-other than to realize that the scents are a lovely enhancement. They are long-lasting and well worth the price since I have never needed to purchase more than 1 or 2 in a year!

The scent just from the soap unused made me sick to my stomach. Then, I tried it a few times - sometimes when a product is actually used the scent may change a little. Unfortunately, it was the same bad scent. I thought it may have been just me, but my husband didn't like it either. I find that the honey shower/bath product is great - it smells like real honey and is very nice on the skin. However, anything else I tried with the honey - i.e. this soap and the honey body cream does not have the same scent and really bothers me. Perhaps it depends on if you are more sensitive to scents...

This soap has replaced my husbands regular soap. It does last a long timeand is gentle. A nice change to use a high quality, long lasting product.I have used alot of Perlier products, always love them.
Sweet honey
Par Showstopper
de Toronto
The soap itself is beautiful...lathers well and smells so sweet. I bought to bump up total purchase price so I could get free shipping. Even with free shipping, the soap is too expensive...no soap can be justified at this price. Would be delighted to receive this as a gift or on clearance price as the quality is clearly exceptional.

Luxurious !
Par Kathy
de Ennismore
I was very interested in trying this set of soaps. Was not disappointed !! The soap is very nicely scented and lathers up beautifully ! I was hoping the size was a little larger, but that would be my only concern about this product. So glad I made this purchase and that I treated myself to another beautiful product from Perlier :)

Quarterly sales in Japan surged 31 percent to 177,000 vehicles, led by the Insight and Fit. Such fuel-efficient models are a hit in Japan, where the government is offering incentives for green vehicles, including making hybrids tax-free.
Honda said a strong yen erased 57 billion yen ($630 million) in quarterly income.
For the nine months through December, Honda's profit slipped 38.1 percent from the same period the previous year to 196.2 billion yen ($2 billion) on 6.3 trillion yen ($70 billion) sales, down 23.4 percent.
Other Japanese automakers are also likely to report rosier numbers compared to the doldrums of the previous year.
Mitsubishi Motors Corp. on Wednesday posted its first quarterly profit since July-September 2008. It earned 10.7 billion yen ($118.3 million) in October-December, a turnaround from a loss of 17.5 billion yen a year earlier.
Toyota reports earnings Thursday, Mazda Motor Corp. on Friday and Nissan on Tuesday.
Honda shares jumped 2.3 percent to 3,140 yen in Tokyo.

Logitech SoundMan S-4
The most inexpensive system we reviewed is the Logitech SoundMan S-4 ($20 street). The low price and a generous bundle of MP3 files and music apps-primarily freeware and shareware-make the S-4 worth a look. But the speakers have limited frequency response, a tinny mid-range, and only a volume control.
