Rated 5 out of 5 by Kessey 5stars Excellent product, love it since borrowed it from my sister in law. Therefore I bought one for myself as a treat. 16 January 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Shopoholic19 Expected better It is a good product but I am disappointed with it as my hair doesn't stay straight for long. 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by shesew The original is still the best Great product only downside is there isn't a dual plug attached for travelling But apart from that love my ghds 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by CK14 Great Product Well this isn't really a proper review as I only had my straighteners for a few days before I had to send them back to GHD as they kept producing a burning plastic smell. Aside from that, the straighteners themselves were amazing, compared to the Remingtons I usually use they were by far superior. The plates glide through the hair like butter and they straighten QUICK. They also left my hair incredibly shiny and soft unlike the Remingtons and I noticed my hair stayed straight for much longer. I have to admit I wasn't expecting that much from them as I thought the hype was just a hype and they must just be expensive, overrated straighteners; but they really do deserve the hype. I am however disappointed that my pair seem to be broken hence why I sent them back and am waiting to hear if they're being repaired or if I'm getting a new pair. I would have liked for the plates to be longer however as they are quite short compared to most straighteners. 16 January 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by ktdawn average straightners Very happy with excellent service and quick dispatch. Not very impressed with ghd, this is not as good as I thought it would be and not as good as my old pair of straighteners which are not ghds. Very disapointed 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tammie93 Great for your hair I was devastated when my last pair broke so thought i'd treat my self to a new pair for christmas, absolutely love them!! 16 January 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sarah70 Sulking, new GHD's won't curl. Always managed with previous GHD's to straighten on wash days, curl on the I between day. Don't know what is different but, this time I can no longer curl my hair with the new set. I tried again with my daughters GHD's and they curl just as my old set did. I have now had to buy a separate curling wand. Never the less my new set straightens fantastically. 16 January 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by cash disappointed. I have had these straighteners a few weeks and the hot plates have somehow, unknown to myself got a few scratches which I am very disappointed about as I was always told GHD are Thebes straighteners and the most durable! 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by amielou2013 ghd fantastic best straightners iv used ever, would recommend to any one 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by EllyG Quality A quality product worth every penny :) i have tried many brands over the years and these are quite simply the best you can get 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Burnside Better than other brands Compared to another brand I'd been using, these are in a league of their own. Should have got them years ago! 16 January 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Katieeee6 really good for thick hair! I bought this product and as I have quite thin hair the iron captures all the thin strands of hair so that hurts big time! This product is excellent for people with thick hair!!! Other that that is it fab 16 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fifi19 Excellent product I recently received some ghd's for Christmas and I can't get enough of them! They are such a good purchase and extremely reliable! I love my ghd's and I will be taking good care of them to make them last! Really happy with them! 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Em1987 Best hair straighteners ever These hair straighteners are the best ones I have ever had 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Verity2453167 Fantastic! This product is amazing for me. Why? Because it works perfectly and it's fantastic in what it does to my hair. 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Larni Best Hair Straightener EVER! Probably the best hair straightener I have ever used! My hair is naturally wavey/curly/frizzy (you can understand why I would want to straighten it) and it is very long and I have a lot of it as my hair is very thick, this styler straightens my hair quickly, and keeps my hair straight all day, from early mornings to night-time. I have curled my hair a couple of times using this styler and I have got to say it was easier than I expected as the electrical cord can turn 360 degrees. The curls that were left in my hair were big and voluptuous which I was very pleased about! I used to have this exact styler before my new one and it lasted well over 6 years, so that is why I decided to re-purchase. I would definitely recommend this styler to a friend, hands down. 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by susie62 this product is fantadtic I am very pleased with my ghd they do my hair perfect so glad that my husband bought them for me for christmas. 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lynne61 Great product So easy to style hair with ghd compared to other brands of stylers 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by anon987 Overall excellence This product is excellent all-round. I am very pleased with the results, even on thick hair it works very well. 15 January 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Cw01 Somewhat ineffective Very dissapointed with performance and results. Temperature adjust would have been useful. Cheaper brands outperform GHD. 15 January 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by ZS01 Good but not as good as my orginal GHD's I have used 2 other straighteners but my orginal GHD was effortless to get my hair straighter. I decided to go back to GHD as I had dropped my orginal one and one of the plates was loose. (I had kept and attempted to use a few times). My new one is not as good, takes longer to straighten and I do not have the different voltage switch like I had before. (Useful when using in the US.) It still is hotter and smoother than 2 i had inbetween. 15 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vickytip Amazing styler! This is my first personal ghd, I have used them in the past but I love the fact that this styler gets hot so quickly, will beep when it overheats and actually stops heating! Im too careful anyway but for people who tend to forget to turn things off, this is great. Leaves hair feeling so healthy and shiny and straightens really easily. ( I have really thick hair so this is a REALLY good thing) 14 January 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Siobhan25 Lovely to use, looks great, easy to use Looks fantastic, heats up quickly and light. Could do with coming with a protector mat and isn't quite as great at straightening as I'd been told - a little disappointed, but still better than my old straightener 14 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by michg1991 Best Straighteners On The Market! Bought these straighteners since my last pair finally died on me (after 7 years of daily use!) I opted for the IV not the V, as I've borrowed other people's V's and I find they do not seem to get as hot and catch on the ends of my fine thin hair. These IV's are just as good as my last pair - I hope these stand the test of time just as well too! 14 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Macey Prompt Delivery Bought as Christmas present recipient delighted with it 14 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Roachy This is my 2nd pair to replace old ones.excellent product but don't think there as hit as they used to be. Bought to replace old ghds wouldn't buy any other brand but feel there not as hot as they used to be. 14 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JennnyJ Amazing hair straightner Seriously this straightener is amazing! No other straightener has managed to get my hair as straight as my ghds do :) 13 January 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Blondey Great salon finish I have had ghd's and cloud 9 hair straighteners and I am now on my 3rd set of ghd's. yes they are expensive but these straighteners have been brought over the last 10 years... Used every day! They are worth the money and give a salon finish. 12 January 2014

I did not identify with Saints Row I or II, dismissing them as shallow knock-offs of the GTA franchise. However, after watching a few clips on SR3, I decided to give it a try. The mechanics are fluid and refined. The combat is enjoyable. There are some missions that are not fantastic and perhaps go on a bit too long, but on the whole the missions are quite enjoyable. However, it's unfair to boil Saints Row 3 down to it's core components when it's the experience the game provides that allow...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

Actor-director Revathy talks about the play Afterlife of Birds, in which she plays a pivotal role. The play will be staged on Friday
Revathy does not believe in resting on her laurels. For years now, the award-winning film actor and director has been reinventing herself and her repertoire by constantly challenging her creativity through new projects in films and, now, theatre.
Beginning with children's theatre in Chennai, Revathy moved on to 1 Madhav Baug, a solo play written by Chetan Datar, and produced by Bangalore-based Ranga Shankara. Revathy is now busy with her latest play Afterlife of Birds.
"Theatre and cinema are completely diverse spaces. Yes, there is acting in both but the kind of acting involved is different. It is like working in two genres and I enjoy both," says Revathy.
She plays a pivotal role in theatre director Abhishek Majumdar's play Afterlife of Birds, which explores the theme of displacement in the time of terror.
Displacement and terror
"It is a political play that investigates the movement of women due to political and personal reasons and also the impact that terror has on the lives of ordinary people, issues of human rights, and so on. It questions our notions of geographical boundaries, culture…," explains Revathy.
She essays a character called Ajanthi, a former member of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), who is now settled in London. Ajanthi comes to India to meet her former comrade-in-arms and friend Niromi who is in jail.
"Niromi is enacted by veteran theatre actor Arundathi Nag. It has been a learning experience to work with her. Niromi has won a Presidential pardon and is about to be freed from prison. The entire play unfolds over one night, to be precise on January 25. Rasheed, a band commander in the Delhi police, is getting ready for his last parade as he is on the verge of retirement. That is when his son Mehtab gets dragged into controversies. The play is about how the lives of these characters get intertwined due to certain circumstances," narrates Revathy.
She says she finds the drama and her character captivating as the entire play developed during workshops that were held for the play. "It was through discussions that the play evolved and everyone was so into it," she recalls.
The title of the play derives it name from migratory birds that cross continents and countries in their annual passage. However, birds of passage move from place to place for a sanctuary called home. For instance, Ajanthi moves to London from Sri Lanka but she decides to come to India. "It is a play that highlights the violent times we live in and also refers to the fact we may be born in a particular place but die elsewhere. Most of the evolution of the characters is internal and that is what made it an interesting experience," she adds.
Abhishek, artistic director of Indian Ensemble which is presenting the play ( he is a winner of the The Hindu MetroPlus Playwright Award in 2008 for his play Harlesden High Street) says it was his work among migrant women that formed the thread of the play. "I was trying to find out why is that people, specifically women, move from place to place. I was talking to former LTTE members and was in touch with someone in Europe. The reason why these people were willing to travel was political. That was when the shootout at Batla house in Delhi happened (2008). I had been following it closely. The play derives it theme from these two subjects," says Abhishek.
Why was Revathy cast in the play? "I think she is a fine actor and it has been interesting to work with her," he adds. And Revathy makes it clear that theatre is here to stay and she will be working in plays while cinema will always be there.
Birds of passage
Although Revathy has staged 1 Madhav Baug in Kerala, this is the first time the city will get to see Revathy, the theatre actor. Afterlife of Birds will be performed today at Karthika Tirunal Theatre at 7 p.m. It is open to the public. This play won the Robert Bosch Arts grant for 2011.

Stereotaxis Announces First Uses of the NAVISTAR(R) RMT THERMOCOOL(R) Catheter
In the first procedure with the magnetic irrigated catheter, Dr.
"This was a very complicated case," said Dr. Natale. "The procedure was flawless, and the patient is doing extremely well. We are very pleased with the performance of the magnetic irrigated catheter. Now that it is available, we expect to use the Remote Magnetic Navigation System routinely to treat complex arrhythmias. The power of the magnetic irrigated catheter together with the precision of the Stereotaxis System represents a significant improvement in the management of complex arrhythmias."
In a separate case, Dr.
"The performance of the magnetic irrigated catheter was exceptional," said Dr. Tschopp. "We were able to deliver the necessary therapy and the patient is doing extremely well. I believe that the combination of remote magnetic navigation with the irrigated catheter will have the greatest, most immediate impact on treating complex left sided ablations. It is exciting for this tool to be available to the millions of people who have this disease."
Prior to FDA approval, Dr.
"The details of our case at Intermountain demonstrate the full power of an irrigated catheter combined with the precision of magnetic navigation," said Dr. Weiss. "We were able to maneuver the catheter into very difficult-to-reach anatomy, achieve excellent tissue-catheter contact, and successfully treat this complicated patient where other treatments had failed. This has been an extremely gratifying case and we look forward to broader and more consistent application of the magnetic irrigated catheter for complex cases at our Center going forward."
"Everyone at Stereotaxis has been preparing for the introduction of the magnetic irrigated catheter in the U.S.," said
About Stereotaxis
Stereotaxis designs, manufactures and markets an advanced cardiology instrument control system for use in a hospital's interventional surgical suite to enhance the treatment of coronary artery disease and arrhythmias. The Stereotaxis System is designed to enable physicians to complete more complex interventional procedures by providing image guided delivery of catheters and guidewires through the blood vessels and chambers of the heart to treatment sites. This is achieved using computer-controlled, externally applied magnetic fields that govern the motion of the working tip of the catheter or guidewire, resulting in improved navigation, shorter procedure time and reduced x-ray exposure. The core components of the Stereotaxis System have received regulatory clearance in the U.S.,

The Narendra Modi wave seems to have hit Sarhaul village in old Gurgaon where the youth of the village have decided to vote for BJP candidate against the wishes of their village elders.
The elders, on the other hand, have decided to vote for Rao Dharampal, local candidate from Congress. However, with hopes of seeing Narendra Modi as the prime minister of the country, most of the youth in the village will be voting for an outsider—Rao Inderjeet, a former Congress rebel who has now joined the BJP.
While not too excited about the candidate, they clearly see Narendra Modi has a symbol of hope.
This has been the case for various families in the villages both in and around Sarhaul village in old Gurgaon where members of the family have been voting for different political parties.

Ivory Coast's Gbagbo en route to Hague
The 66-year-old Gbagbo, a history professor, came to power in a flawed election in 2000. He then failed to hold elections when his first five-year term expired in 2005, and rescheduled the vote a half-dozen times before it finally went ahead in 2010. Among conditions set by the international community, which Gbagbo accepted, were that the results would be certified by the United Nations in order to prevent his regime from rigging the vote.
But as soon as it became clear that Ouattara was leading in the polls, Gbagbo's presidential guard surrounded the election commission, preventing the results from being announced.
The killings began as soon as the United Nations declared Ouattara the winner, and for the next four months morgues overflowed as the military under Gbagbo's control executed opponents, gunned down protesters and shelled neighborhoods.
The turning point came in March when thousands of unarmed women led a demonstration demanding Gbagbo's departure. Tanks opened fire with 50-caliber bullets and the horrific scene that followed was caught on camera phones, and led to condemnation by governments around the world, including U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The United Nations helped by French forces began air strikes soon after, clearing the path for Ouattara's soldiers to enter the city, where they seized Gbagbo inside his bunker.
"Today is a big day for the victims of crimes committed during Ivory Coast's horrific postelection violence," said Elise Keppler, senior counsel to Human Rights Watch in an email.
"While the Gbagbo camp fueled the violence through its refusal to relinquish power and its incitement, forces on both sides have been repeatedly implicated in grave crimes," she said. "The many victims of abuse meted out by forces loyal to President Ouattara also deserve to see justice done."
Spokesman for Ouattara's government Kone Bruno said he did not believe the pending indictment could destabilize the nation, which is still plagued by pockets of violence between the two camps. He added that the international court will likely be more impartial than an Ivory Coast court. "If a judgment were made in Ivory Coast, it wouldn't be objective," he said.
In the Netherlands, Gbagbo is likely to be better treated than he has been at home. His lawyer Altit said that while under house arrest in Korhogo the elderly Gbagbo was kept incommunicado and prohibited from going outside.
"He didn't have the right to walk even a few steps outside," said Altit. "At the beginning, he didn't have any clothes, and after two or two-and-a-half months lawyers were able to come see him and bring him some things."
A confidential United Nations document leaked to The Associated Press on Tuesday states that Gbagbo's health "seems to be deteriorating." He was having "trouble standing up," as of Nov. 23.
In The Hague, Gbagbo will likely be held in the same North Sea-facing complex that also houses ex-Liberian warlord Charles Taylor and Congolese politician Jean-Pierre Bemba. Inmates have TVs, access to the internet and a choice of books to read, as well as regular contact with their attorneys.

Los Angeles Kings prospect Maxim Kitsyn and his Mississauga St. Michael's Majors are off to the semi-finals in the 2011 Memorial Cup where they will play either the Owen Sound Attack or the Kootenay Ice on Friday night.
In the final round-robin game last night, host Mississauga defeated the Owen Sound Attack, who they had lost to in a gruelling seven-game Ontario Hockey League championship final just a few weeks ago. The Majors won last night's tilt by a 3-1 score and Kitsyn helped out with an assist en route to the victory, adding to his one goal he had scored the previous game.
Mississauga finishes the round-robin portion of the Memorial Cup with a 2-1 record and will now wait to see who wins the tiebreaker, which will take place tonight at Mississauga's Hershey Center between the aforementioned Attack and Ice, who earned a spot in the tournament as champions of the Western Hockey League.
Best of luck to Maxim Kitsyn and his team on Saturday.

It is the lack of space that has driven many musicians, music lovers and rasikas to explore far-flung areas. They seem to have taken a bit of their art and its ambience with them too. They have formed sabhas in these peripheral areas.
A few questions were posed to the heads/coordinators of some sabhas – the origins, viability, response, constraints and their plans for the future. All of them spoke with a sense of optimism. The sabhas had a common cause - to form an organisation to promote classical music, as there were no music institutions around and music lovers had to travel to the city spending time, energy and money.
Ramanathan of the NSTSS (Nanganallur) says it was really God's will that prompted the Nanganallur elite to form the sabha 18 years ago. It has been able to raise the level of an ordinary listener to that of a good rasika. Constraints do exist - financial and accommodation - as there are no corporate sponsors. A philanthropist/music-lover has given the premises for free and the immediate need is to look for an alternative place. All the expenses are met by donations from the general public, committee members and a few banks. During aradhana, funds need to be sought, but otherwise there is no major crisis for there is excellent support from the members. The artists also co-operate and have great regard for this institution that is run by a fellow musician.
Padma Sarangapani Cultural Academy operates at Villivakkam and Virugambakkam. Initially at Villivakkam, it had to insist on attendance from the school children, attached to the Academy, but now the sabha is getting better response from the public. This organisation conducts Tyagaraja Aradhana and invites top musicians. In short, an awareness has been created, say Varadan and Srikrishnan. An important aspect of this sabha is the free transport organised during kutcheris. The artists are booked well in advance (May-June) and they can look forward to a well-equipped auditorium at Villivakkam.
For Seetha Narayanan, who is the founder-president of Divyadhwani (Ayanavaram), the sabha came into being 12 years ago mainly to help train her students for the concert stage. The sabha has concentrated on encouraging the not-so-popular artists and prefers that the members pay lifetime subscription. The artists who have performed speak highly of the sabha.
K.R. Saranathan, who is the coordinator for Sri Rama Baktha Jana Sabha of K.K. Nagar, says the sabha was started with the money collected following a door-to-door campaign to celebrate Rama Navami. The president, secretary and other committee members regularly get sponsors during the Season. Most musicians accept their terms and it has been a phenomenal success, with huge attendance. A few popular artists may not figure on the programme sheet – but that does not cause the organisation undue worry.
Thrimoorthi Sangeetha Sabha of Pozhichalur was inaugurated in 2003. Says Krishnamurthy, "At the time of the launch, it had more than 100 members. Now there are more than 200 members. Initially except the premises, nothing else was available. But with the enthusiasm of the people in the area and financial help from the Airport Authorities, it has been able to manage the show. Overseas students of Neyveli Venkatesh, the mridangam vidwan, have helped in installing the audio system here. Venkatesh and Tiruchi Murali are part of this sabha. The membership fee is nominal but financing is mainly from companies which have their base in North India. The spiritual ambience in the premises and the discipline of the audience, enthuse the artists.
Padmavathy Ananthagopalan of Annanagar Music Circle says the objective of her 20-year-old outfit has been achieved to a great extent. "We could do better with more support from the community and sponsors," she says. To sustain the sabha economically without any permanent sponsor was a challenge and they have had to rely largely on its members. Support from the artists is vital. The sabha is grateful to Chinmaya Vidyalaya Management for giving the hall. The sabha has several feathers to its cap. For instance, honouring the laya segment with an annual award for a percussion artist.
Sathyabama of Shiba Fine Arts Academy (Villivakkam) started with a five-day festival, which went up to seven and then to eight days from 2006. A bank and a philanthropist support the sabha financially. Competitions are conducted to attract the youth.
For Raji Srinivasan of the Gita Nivedana Trust (Nanganallur), the experience of sitting near a musician and listening to him/her is unique. This organisation does not stop with concerts. It has other wings – Vanavil, Ganavarithi, Subodhayam – for specific projects, all for the propagation of music. It also offers scholarships to those who want to pursue music seriously. It does face problems, especially during the rainy season as the stage is under a makeshift shamiana. Now it wants to hold concerts at least once in two months. Above all, the sabha is happy that people living in that area need not travel to the city to listen to an RTP. They have a place closer home.

text: LIMA � Juan Williams is no stranger to change. An up-close observer of American politics at work on Capitol Hill for 30 years, he�s seen issues and people come and go through the years. On Thursday, Williams, a Washington, D.C., journalist and political commentator for Fox News Channel, will bring his observations on change to Lima. Williams will be the featured speaker at the 3rd annual Economic Community Enrichment Dinner at the Veterans Memorial Civic and Convention Center. �The whole focus is on all the tremendous rate of change we�re undertaking in the country. I think the changes go much deeper. They speak to economics, race and demographics,� Williams said. �That�s what I�ll try to touch on in Lima. People are following the presidential race so intently even as you have your own racial issues that dominate the headlines and create such tensions in the community. You have to understand these larger forces that are transforming America and transforming who we are in our identity as Americans.� Speaking on race and racial change is difficult, Williams said, particularly for a visitor. It�s not a topic he�ll shy away from, however. �I think what Lima has to understand is they�ve got to be forward-looking. So many people can get lost in the details and the who said what,� Williams said. �You�ve got to at some point, if you are in a leadership role in the community, be able to appeal to people on the basis of looking forward. Where are we going, what can we do, how can we unify to create the strongest possible future for Lima, Ohio?� No where is talk of change more prominent than in the race for the White House, Williams said. Each candidate has tried to portray himself or herself as agents of change, he said. �Well there�s no question that there�s no matter Republican or Democrat, no matter east, west, north or south, the theme of this campaign is change,� Williams said. �When I�m out I hear people talking about a real call for change. There�s a real call for change on the war, for example. There�s a real call for change in terms of awareness of the economic issues and the anxiety being felt at kitchen tables across the country. They�re tired of hearing Wall Street�s doing fine while they�re feeling the pinch.�

"Dry September" closes with John McLendon's returning to his "birdcage" home at midnight and brutally confronting his wife. Hearing his question, "Haven't I told you about sitting up like this, waiting to see when I come in?" we wonder where and what he must have been doing the other times, and how often his wife must endure his abusive behavior. The sadism that was revealed in his slashing out at Will continues in his sadistic treatment of his wife when he "half struck, half flung her across the chair."
Mrs. McLendon's seemingly passive acceptance of her husband's abuse increases our sympathy for her. By ending the story with such a disturbing view of her as a victim, Faulkner reiterates the victimization of many of his characters, most especially Will. Our final glimpse of McLendon is not of the heroic American decorated for valor, but of a mean, vicious, and violently sadistic bigot. Ironically, he kills a man to protect the so-called sanctity of Southern white women, yet he treats his own wife as a piece of property, to do with as he pleases. The White Goddess concept is an abstract ideal, and that is all it is — an ideal that fails miserably in real life.

If you're expecting to see pristine, white walls with pretty pictures hanging on them, along with clear delineations between featured artist and anonymous collaborators at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles' latest exhibition, you're in for a surprise.
MOCA is presenting an extensive retrospective of Swiss-born artist Urs Fischer and his work over the past decade. The exhibit takes up 38,500 square feet of MOCA's Grand Avenue and Geffen Contemporary locations.
MOCA is touting "Urs Fischer" as the first comprehensive museum retrospective of his work in the United States. The curator of this show is Jessica Morgan, curator from the Tate Modern in London.
Fischer, born in Zurich in 1973, is something of a rebel. At times, his non-conformist, non-commercial and challenging work is quite renegade and represents a genuine art revolution.
At other times, the delivery of his ambitious vision is messy, disheveled and verging on out of control. His show at the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, which features clay works by 1,500 guest contributors from Los Angeles, is a downright mess.
At MOCA's downtown location, "Urs Fischer" opens with an unexpected stroke of genius or madness. The artist has removed huge sections of the gallery walls, leaving the interior architecture exposed and the galleries in full view of one another.
It's something we haven't seen before at MOCA or any other Southern California museum. The effect is dramatic, and reminds me of a couplet by Walt Whitman, also quoted by Allen Ginsberg at the beginning of "Howl": "Unscrew the locks from the doors!/ Unscrew the doors themselves from their jambs!"
Fischer is literally tearing down the museum walls and busting holes in them. That's a refreshing experience in what's normally a quiet, pristine, hands-off space.
To further demonstrate the physicality of what he's done, the artist has taken the large, oval sections of wall he's cut out and placed them strategically against the walls opposite of the holes. The result is an interesting contrast of absence and presence, subtraction and addition.
Some works worth mentioning in the Grand Avenue show are "Horses Dream of Horses" (2004), consisting of 1,500 light blue, plaster "raindrops" suspended from the ceiling; an untitled "Bread House" (2004-05) made of bread, bread crumbs, wood, polyurethane foam, silicone, acrylic paint, screws and rugs; and "Problem Painting" (2012), an acrylic, gesso and aluminum panel painting of a woman whose face and torso are covered by a juicy lemon slice.
The "Bread House" is a structure literally made of loaves and slices of bread. One can see the silicone glue oozing, still holding together the loaves of bread, albeit haphazardly, and the crumbs that have fallen on the rugs covering the gallery floor.
"Mr. Flosky" (2001-02) is an intriguing sculpture of a white cat staring into a white oven with the door open and a light on inside. Untitled ("Suspended Line of Fruit") from 2012 consists of a line of fruit – a grape, strawberry, lime, apple, grapefruit, coconut and pineapple – hanging from the ceiling via nylon filament. Since the fruit is real, each piece has to be replaced once a week.
In the next gallery is a delightful, macabre series of skeletons prostrated on or leaning against benches, boxes, a sofa and a lamppost. Either Fischer is a fan of the Mexican Day of the Dead, or he's just obsessed with death and its dark humors.
The final gallery contains some more odd installations: "Kratz" (2011), which appears to be a pile of dirt on a bed; "Lie to a Dog" (2005), a cast nickel silver spike driven through a huge chunk of real cheese; and "The Grass Munchers" (2007), consisting of a bunch of hands and arms gripping one another.

text: honeybees Gardeners beware: Study shows harmful pesticide in garden store plants By Sarah Cwiek • Jun 26, 2014 Sarah Cwiek / Michigan Radio A Michigan environmental group says gardeners should be careful when buying plants – they may be inadvertently harming bees. The Ann Arbor-based Ecology Center was part of a study looking at the pesticide content in plants bought from major home and garden stores in 18 cities across North America. Of four plants purchased at a metro Detroit Home Depot, two tested positive for neonicotinoids, a class of pesticides known to be toxic to bees. Help for honeybee researchers coming from Grand Valley State University By Mark Brush • Jun 24, 2014 Mark Brush / Michigan Radio Listen Listening... / 4:00 Today's Environment Report from Michigan Radio. Listen to GVSU's Anne Marie Fauvel explain how hive weights can help researchers. That's right, bees rule. At least that what my second grader thinks after she studied them at school. "You wrote bees rule. Why do bees rule?" I asked. "I think it's neat for how they can make it into honey and that they can speak to each other by doing a dance," she answered. She, of course, isn't the only one who think bees rule. A lot of us think they rule. Especially when you consider that around one out of every three bites of food we eat is the result of a bee. But as you've likely heard, bees are in trouble. Beekeepers have been experiencing losses at alarming rates — and scientists across the country are scrambling to try to stop these losses. Whether from Colony Collapse Disorder, or other bee stressors, the problems bees face are more complicated than it once seemed. Lawmakers considering early bear hunt to protect beehives By Sara Hoover • Jun 10, 2014 Sara Hoover Listen Listening... / 4:00 The Environment Report Beekeepers have to keep their honeybees healthy against a lot of challenges: deadly mites, pesticides and harsh winters. Once they make it to the spring though, it doesn't mean they're in the clear. Bears are emerging from hibernation at their hungriest. And beeyards are like a dinner bell. Michigan lawmakers are considering a bill (H.B. 5226) that could allow beekeepers and hunters to work together to protect honeybees from bears. Beekeepers report honey bee losses down, but problem remains By Rebecca Williams • May 22, 2014 Photo by Jim Eklund / ARS/USDA Listen Listening... / 4:00 Jeff Pettis talks about bees. You can thank a bee for about one of every three bites of food we eat. Jeff Pettis is the research leader for the Bee Research Lab with the Agricultural Research Service at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. "Most of the nutritious stuff in our diet is probably pollinated by some kind of animal, and most likely a bee," he says. Pettis just wrapped up a survey of beekeepers around the country, and he found they lost just over 23% of their bee colonies this past winter. "The previous about seven-year average has been just over 30%, so this number is a little bit better, but by no means is it a great number for numbers of colonies lost through the winter. Before we got the parasitic mite varroa, we used to lose 5-10% of the colonies in the winter. We got two parasitic mites in the 80s; the numbers jumped between 15-20% losses," he says. Michigan beekeepers breeding hardier "survivor bees" By Sara Hoover • Apr 8, 2014 Sara Hoover / Interlochen Public Radio Listen Listening... / 4:00 Listen to today's Environment Report above. It's been a tough winter for honeybees. Bees already face several obstacles, including parasitic mites, habitat loss, and pesticides. Those factors and others are believed to contribute to Colony Collapse Disorder, a phenomenon where bees disappear from the hive in large numbers. In the face of all these things, beekeepers in Michigan are trying to breed a hardier bee. Federal agency wants you to help improve honeybees' diet By Lindsey Smith • Mar 16, 2014 cygnus921 / Creative Commons The U.S. Department of Agriculture is trying to give honeybees more and better-quality food in the Midwest. Dan Zay is a biologist with the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service in Michigan. He says the agency hopes a better variety of high-quality flowering plants will help honeybees rebound from major population losses over the last eight years. "It's said that one in three mouthfuls of food and drink that we consume involves the efforts of honeybees," Zay said. Help is on the way for Michigan's fragile honeybee population By Stateside Staff • Mar 3, 2014 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey_bee This winter has been especially tough for the already-fragile population of Michigan honeybees. Beekeepers are coping with a nearly decade-long decline in commercial honeybees and their wild cousins. It's called "colony collapse disorder". Listen Listening... / 8:41 Now comes the unrelenting cold of this record-setting winter, and beekeepers in Michigan and other states are reporting staggering losses that could endanger crop production all over the nation. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced it's spending $3 million on a new program to help honeybees. Let's find out why this is so crucial and what it means for Michigan's farmers and beekeepers. Mike Hansen is the State Apiarist with Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development. Harsh winter killed many of Michigan's honeybees By Tracy Samilton • Feb 26, 2014 Zachary Huang / MSU Humans got off easy this harsh winter, compared to honeybees. The severe cold killed off many hives. Zachary Huang is a honeybee expert at Michigan State University. He says, in a normal winter, a hive needs about 60 pounds of honey. "And they just eat the food and then shiver their muscles (to create heat) and huddle together so they are warm enough, and they don't get frozen." But, this was no normal winter. And it also followed a very poor goldenrod season, a plant many honeybees use to make honey.

Goin' Home: A Tribute To Fats Domino
A first-tier musical icon in a city that breeds 'em in batches and takes that sort of thing seriously, rock 'n' roll pioneer Fats Domino was among the thousands thought swept away by Hurricane Katrina. Somebody even scrawled "RIP Fats" on the wreckage of his house in New Orleans' devastated Lower Ninth Ward. He finally turned up days after being plucked from his roof by boat, a glimmer of hope amid the desolation—as is this first-rate, two-disc tribute to the 79-year-old Fat Man (proceeds go to Tipitina's Foundation, which is helping rebuild New Orleans' music community).
No less than John Lennon starts things out with a rousing, 1975 version of "Ain't That a Shame," followed by a slew of smartly chosen heavy hitters from a cross section of genres, often in intriguing match-ups with Crescent City musicians. Paul McCartney, for instance, does a spot-on Fats vocal impression on "I Want to Walk You Home" while Allen Toussaint mans the 88s. "Whole Lotta Loving" gets a sizzling, funked-up treatment from Lenny Kravitz teamed with the Rebirth Brass Band and the JB Horns. Robbie Robertson and Galactic give a languid, swampy atmosphere to the suicidal "Going to the River" before switching on the funk the second time through. The title track gets a regal blues remake from guitarist B.B. King, conspiring with a simmering Dumpstaphunk and a stellar horn section featuring Trombone Shorty, jazz saxophonist Donald Harrison, and longtime Fats associate Herbert Hardesty on tenor.
For every faithful rendition of a Fats nugget, like Tom Petty's sparkling "I'm Walkin'," there are striking revisions, none more so than the amazing version of "I'm Gonna Be a Wheel Someday," the killer Meters rhythm section of Ziggy Modeliste and George Porter Jr. interlaced with Herbie Hancock's glistening jazz piano phrases. Also in that category is Toots & the Maytals' soulful reggae interpretation of "Let the Four Winds Blow," and Willie Nelson's wonderful reading of "I Hear You Knockin'" with its insidiously reserved Texas swing tickled by Jon Cleary's whorehouse piano workout. For all involved, this is clearly an inspired labor of love, not just for the Fat Man, but for the city and its enduring but fragile legacy.

why do kids who have been sexually abused, cut themselves, cry, beat up pets etc?
I'm doing an essay about abuse that needs to be turned in today and the answer I receive from enotes always helps me form it. Thanks Joelle
1 Answer | Add Yours
Children often lack the vocabulary to express their feelings in non-harmful ways, so they resort to acting them out instead. This can take many forms, including inflicting injury on themselves or on others.
Passing on the pain by hurting younger children or pets is common as a stress relief for children who feel powerless over what has happened to him. Untreated victims sometimes grow up to become abusers. Other, less aggressive children turn inward, and inflict injury on themselves instead.
Self-injury is a complex phenomenon, and has been shown to common among sexually abused children. Some psychologists says that it is an effort to feel something, rather than just feeling numb. Others theorize that the injury releases endorphins, brain chemicals which provide a level of relaxation or comfort.

Man Hopes Hot Woman In Next Apartment Can Hear How Well He's Fucking His Girlfriend
MIRAMAR, FL—During sexual intercourse Monday, Curtis Davie, 23, hoped that his attractive neighbor could hear the pleasured moans of his girlfriend through his apartment wall. "Don't get me wrong, things are going great with Amy," Davie said. "But it certainly never hurts to have a hot chick next door who secretly knows you're a sexual dynamo." To increase his chances of being heard, Davie is considering moving his bed to the wall between his apartment and the neighbor's, or at least closer to the shared air duct.

After inviting public ire followed by the state women's commission notice over his controversial remarks made two days back, Abu Asim Azmi, the state chief of Samajwadi party sought to defend himself in a press conference called on Sunday by presenting himself as a champion of women issues.
"Islam respects women the most, so as I as I am the father of five daughters. Only an insane person can say that hang the rape victims," said Azmi. He added, "In fact, it was our party, which supported Phulan Devi helping her to come out of the jail and to get her elected as the Member of the parliament." Phulan was the bandit queen of UP who took to guns after the ganrape.
Azmi and his party is receiving flak from across India for his remarks where he was said to stated that consentual or non-consentual, women having sex outside the wedlock should be given capital punishment along with the men. The state women commision has also taken a cognisance asking Azmi to depose before the commission on 25th April to present his side. Azmi however denied having recived any notice.
Presenting the transcript of his conversation with the tabloid which led to the controversy, Azmi claimed that it was a slip of tongue as he was asked to respond over phone that too when he was campaigning. Azmi said, "I clarified my views in the same telephonic conversation later when asked to elaborate but still the wrong statement was carried to sensationalise the issue."
When asked about his fresh views over the capital punishment to rapists, the question which was thrown to him to respond which led to the controversy on Friday, Azmi put forth a differnt version. He said,"Yes, rapists should be hanged as per the law of teh land. Islam also prescribes the capital punishment for the rapist." When asked if he didn't share the party's national chief Mulayam Singh Yadav's views who opposed the capital punishment for the rapists, Azmi gave vague answer. "You have to see the context of his statement. I would not to comment further."
However, he insisted was still against the sex out of wedlock as Islam doesn't permit so. He added, "Many women have consensual sex but cry rape when things go awry. In such case, the men are punished and their whole life is destroyed. Anti-rape law like anti-dowry law is being misused. There must be a debate on this issue."
"I didn't go to Matoshree, have no business with Raj Thackeray"
Azmi also refuted the charges of having business with Raj thackeray or visiting Matoshree, the residence of Uddhav Thackeray, the Shiv Sena chief. The news pertaining to these were being circulated in Mumbai for quite sometime. A photograph of Azmi wearing a saffron shawl is doing rounds through whatsApp-a mobile messaging service. "This photo in which I am wearing saffron shawl was taken at the wedding of one of my acquaintances with a Sena leader in Bhiwandi," claimed Azmi. He also rejected the charges of him having business with the MNS chief Raj Thackeray. "I have never met Raj in my life. If anyone provides teh proof of my ties with Raj, I will give all my property to that person," said Azmi who is the richest MLA in the state Assembly. Azmi had assets worth Rs126 crore as per teh affidavit filed during 2009 election.

This is not to say that corporations and governments are going to wither away.

None of the absolute advantages of institutions like businesses or schools or governments have disappeared.

Jason D. Wright, 40, faces life in prison for sexually abusing a girl almost every day when she came home from school. The abuse started when the victim was 13 and lasted until she was 16.
The victim told investigators Wright often put a blanket or pillow over her head during the assaults, which sometimes lasted up to 45 minutes.
Wright told the victim not to tell because no one would believe her.
"He was proven wrong by the deputies who investigated this case, the prosecutors who tried it, and the twelve good men and women of the jury who gave the victim justice," said Eric Zahnd, Platte County prosecuting attorney.
Wrigth was convicted of statutory sodomy in Clay County in 1999.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 24 for the latest counts of statutory sodomy. He is being held on a $350,000 bond.

1972 Portland–Vancouver tornado
|April 5, 1972
|Max rating1
|F3 tornado
|$3–5 million (1972 USD)
|Areas affected
|Northern Oregon, Southern Washington
|1Most severe tornado damage; see Fujita scale
The 1972 Portland–Vancouver Tornado was a destructive tornado that struck on April 5, 1972. The tornado carved a nine-mile (14 km) path of destruction across Oregon and Washington. The tornado left 6 people dead, 301 injured and $3–5 million (1972 USD) in damage. The tornado was considered the worst to hit the state of Washington and Oregon since 1871 and was the deadliest tornado in 1972. While the Portland-Vancouver tornado was not the first F3 tornado in Washington (December 12, 1969 in the Seattle area), it was the only recorded F3 tornado in Oregon history.[1] It is also the deadliest recorded tornado in West Coast history.[2][3]
Storm history[edit]
A very turbulent squall line of thunderstorms moved northeast across Portland, Oregon and was tracked by the National Weather Service. The strongest thunderstorm was tracked near the town of Tigard. The tornado formed from this thunderstorm and touched down near the edge of the Columbia River. The tornado moved 1½ miles before crossing the Oregon/Washington border. The tornado was difficult to observe because of the fog and the mud and flying debris drawn up by the tornado. After making landfall on the Washington side of the Columbia River, the tornado continued its 9-mile (14 km) journey before dissipating.[3]
In Oregon, the tornado damaged four boat moorings and 50 small boats. Damage in Oregon from the tornado totaled up to $250,000 dollars (1972 USD).[3][4]
In east Vancouver, the tornado struck at 12:51 p.m. (PST), where it destroyed a grocery store, along with Peter S. Ogden Elementary School injuring 70 students.[5] Nearby, the storm demolished a bowling alley and damaged 100 homes, some severely. Trees and power lines were downed and vehicles were flipped as well.[6] Overall, the tornado killed six people and left 3-5 million dollars (1972 USD) damage in Washington.[2] Two F2 tornadoes and another F3 touched down in rural parts of Washington state later that day, though these tornadoes caused no fatalities. The small severe weather outbreak was the deadliest and most significant tornado event to occur in the Pacific northwest.
Non-tornadic events[edit]
High winds brought by the thunderstorms caused minimal tree damage. In Tigard, the thunderstorm that spawned the tornado tore the roof off a warehouse and damaged five parked cars. A pressure jump of 0.12 inches (3.0 mm) was recorded by the National Weather Service. The Portland, Oregon National Weather Service office, approximately one mile east of the tornado touchdown, recorded winds gusting up to 63 mph (101 km/h). Another weather station reported sustained winds of 80 mph (130 km/h).[3]

Something outside stinks. This unusually warm winter has turned our yard into a fetid, muddy swamp. And our dog has been ever vigilant in her efforts to transport as much of that swamp into our house as her fur will absorb. And my backyard compost, so obediently frozen during a normal February, has already begun to thaw and rot. And yet, despite all of these olfactory assaults, there is also something pleasant in the air in our little household. It is (hold your noses): Love.
Not because of this week's silly holiday, although we're planning a chili cook-off for the occasion that will no doubt momentarily improve the aromas in our home. (Afterward: I make no promises.) It's because my girlfriend of 10 years and I have decided make our union official under the rights accorded us by the great state of Minnesota, and come this spring will celebrate the occasion by making our friends and family spectacularly drunk. Wedding fever has hit our little corner of Northeast.
Lurking just beneath the bouquet of near-nuptial bliss, however, hovers the unmistakable musk of anxiety. As happens to most brides (I hear), mine has begun losing sleep over the slightest details — the color of the napkins, the candy in the piñata. (To be fair, I'm equally prone to wedding-planning paralysis, and will waste entire afternoons daydreaming about invitation typefaces). Just last night she woke in a cold sweat at 3 a.m. after dreaming that we'd forgotten to buy rings.
To calm her nerves and pass the time, my girlfriend — sorry, fiancée — uses her iPhone to play cards. There she sits, holding the future itself in her hands, the very height of technical design humanity has ever produced, and she uses it to simulate a technology invented 1,500 years ago. It may as well be a paperweight. I find this completely charming. It shows she knows what she wants and doesn't care about the other options available to her, which is probably why she's marrying me.
Cards have always played an important role in our house. Our courtship started over a cribbage board. Cards are a great way not only to pass the time but also to get to know someone — how much they value risk versus reward, whether they would rather play by the house rules or make their own, their preference toward offense or defense. Then, once you really know your partner, a card game becomes a proxy for real conflict, the way play-dates are for dogs. Having it out during a game makes the actual fighting redundant. And, in our house at least, it prepares us for the partnership we are about to forge.
The big game in our house is pinochle, and it is a game made for partnership. It is played most often by two teams of two, with a special deck containing two of every card. Partners must silently determine who has the better hand — longtime partners can do this as if by voodoo — and then work together to create the best possible hand between them. They wager against the other team on who has the best hand. Defaulting on that wager puts you in the hole, the worst possible outcome. Making good on your wager puts you ahead. To succeed, partners must know each other's style intimately, and must also be honest about their shortcomings. Superstition plays its part too: My parents always try to orient themselves parallel to the bathtub in whatever house they're playing. And there you have it: Communication, modesty, work and luck. Marriage in a card game. You even get points for suited Kings and Queens, known, appropriately, as a "marriage." Points are called "meld."
The dirty trick pinochle pulls on a household is that the game creates friction not between the opposing teams but within them. Rather than light-hearted insults lobbed toward your foes across the table, pinochle encourages stern looks and to-the-quick personal attacks against the very person who is ostensibly on your side. My own family history is pocked with stories of temper tantrums thrown over a pinochle game. You do not want to be my dad's partner if he's looking for a single useful card and you've got a hand full of useless ones. And if grandma doesn't make her bid: Batten down the hatches. This dynamic makes pinochle an adults-only game in my family. It is a rite of passage to be invited into a game. I learned to play when I was 10 but wasn't formally accepted at the table until after high school. As my friend's grandpa says when he picks up his cards: "Send no boys."
Today pinochle is a mostly forgotten game. It was brought overseas by German immigrants, thrived in German settlements in the Midwest and the Deep South for most of the last century and, like nearly every card game besides poker, has gotten out of the way of progress, making room for smart phones and Carcassonne (another game worth trying, by the way). But we continue to evangelize it, and are always looking for people to join a game. If you think you're up for it, let us know.
Just don't expect to win right away. It takes time. And we play pretty well together.

{Food Dish} Best Dessert Bar Contest 1st Runner-up + Recipe
LDS Living - May 31, 2012
This delicious dessert bar won a lion's share of the votes at our recent contest. Meet the second best recipe we found, De Lime in de Coconut Bars.
Next week we'll reveal the very best dessert bar recipe we found, courtesy of you, our readers.
This week, meet the second favorite recipe chosen by our tasters: De Lime in de Coconut Bars, by Leona S. Patteson of San Diego, California.
These bars were packed with fruity flavor, and although they were distinctly a dessert, they were still light and refreshing. No surprise they came from sunny San Diego!
De Lime in de Coconut Bars
Crust Ingredients
1/3 cup brown sugar
7/8 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut, toasted*
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla or coconut extract
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
Filling Ingredients
8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar
Pinch salt
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
4 large eggs
1/2 cup key lime juice (or regular lime juice)
zest of a lime
Preheat oven to 350. Line a 9x9 or 8x8 square pan with parchment paper using two long pieces criss-crossed with a couple of inches of over-hang. (This will allow you to easily lift the bars out.)
1. Combine all the crust ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl or in the bowl of a food processor. Mix or process until mixture is crumbly. Set aside 1/2 cup of the crumbs and press the remaining crumbs into the bottom of the pan.
2. Bake about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
1. In a medium sized bowl, beat the cream cheese until soft. Add the sugar and salt and beat until well blended.
2. Stir in the flour, and then beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Stir in the lime juice and zest mixing until smooth. Pour onto the crust.
4. Bake the bars for 15 minutes.
5. Remove bars from oven and sprinkle top with reserved crumbs and bake an additional 15 minutes or until bars are set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the middle.
6. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature for 1 hour.
7. For easiest slicing, refrigerate for several hours.
*To toast coconut, place on a cookie sheet and spread in a single layer. Bake in a 325 oven for 8 to 10 minutes or longer until the coconut is golden brown. I'd recommend checking it after 5 minutes and stirring it a bit so the edges don't burn.)

UPDATE: Nomura Reiterates on L Brands Following Positive January Comp
In a report published Friday, Nomura analyst Simeon A. Siegel reiterated a Neutral rating on L Brands (NYSE: LB), but lowered the price target from $58.00 to $55.00.
In the report, Nomura noted, "LB's 3rd consecutive 9% January comp vastly outperformed expectations as the semi-annual sales drove stronger-than-expected topline at "significant" merch margin pressure, leading the company to guide to EPS only 'slightly above' its prior guidance. Although challenging mall traffic forced a promotional driven comp, we do believe the calendar impacted the headline margin number. We maintain our Neutral rating in the face of ongoing challenging trends and our expectation for a below-consensus FY14 guide."
L Brands closed on Thursday at $53.98.

Re: AC 34 - What If?
OTUSA will race another day. They looked the best I've seen them so far. On the upwind leg,It looked like Oracle was choosing a lower point of sail to gain a couple knots in speed. This kept them up on their foils more than Emirates and helped them keep their speed up through the tacks. If sailing off the wind a bit was the plan, it worked. But the wind was strong again and that seems to be what Oracle likes best.
OTOH, that 30-second window average
I have no idea why they created a rule where an average wind speed over any 30-second period that exceeds 20K can cause the clock to reset to 15:00 and begin the countdown all over again. Then you have to wait for another 15 minute period to pass hoping the wind speed won't max during any other 30-second period. Couldn't they have set it for a minute or two?
And while they were waiting for that average to stay below the max, the average wind speed, over the entire time they were waiting, was a little over 16K. Why set yourself up for so many cancelled races?

If you live in one of the 18 states where it is illegal to drive while talking on a hand-held cell phone you probably see fellow drivers breaking the law frequently. Maybe you're even guilty of driving while holding a phone.
In California that would place you in good -- and broad -- company. First lady Maria Shriver has been seen doing it repeatedly, and the California Highway Patrol says it has written more than 100,000 tickets to drivers caught talking on hand-held cell phones since a law prohibiting it went into effect a year-and-a-half ago.
The solution seems so simple -- a $30 earpiece or Bluetooth device is all it takes to adhere to the law. But in California it seems many drivers have decided to do it the old fashioned way. They hold their phones in plain sight of fellow drivers and police, blatantly breaking the law and apparently not caring.
California Highway Patrol Officer Rick Quintero says it's like shooting fish in a barrel when he patrols the Los Angeles freeways. On one morning in Southern California with ABC News riding shotgun, Quintero pulled over driver after driver for talking on their hand-held cell phones.
"They give you the same excuse that a drunk would give you," Quintero explained. "They say, 'I've driven drunk many times and I've never been involved in a wreck.' Same thing with a cell phone. They say, 'I've used my cell phone dozens of times, and I've never been involved in a wreck.' Until you get involved in a wreck."
The drivers Quintero pulled over seemed mostly apologetic and not all that surprised they got caught. Ed Howard told ABC News he knew he was busted the second he saw the black-and-white CHP patrol car.
"I know it's against the law," Howard said. "I've just been lazy. Now I'm going to go buy a Bluetooth."
One woman pulled over tried to hide it, claiming she was only using her Global Positioning System device and saying it was crazy to think she was using her phone. But she lost that battle with Quintero, who pointed out that typically you do not hold a GPS device up to your ear and talk into it.
Some drivers complain that the audio quality of hands-free devices is too poor, or that it takes too long to charge the batteries. Others, like Howard, admit that they're just lazy.
Critics say the reason drivers are so willing to break the law is that the consequences are too light. In California, a ticket for violating the hands-free law brings a fine of only $20. After court and administrative costs, it usually runs a driver between $100 and $150.
Anne McCartt at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety believes the low cost of the ticket is the main reason why so many drivers ignore California's law. "That may be too low to be a good deterrent," McCartt explained from her office in Washington D.C.
Many drivers will tell you they think the cell phone laws are silly.
"It's no different than eating while you're driving," said John Sanchez, who has been ticketed for talking on a cell phone. "But they don't give you a ticket for holding a sandwich or a Coke."
Sanchez may have a valid point. Studies like one done by the IIHS show banning hand-held cell phones doesn't seem to make much of a difference.
"People who switch to hands-free, our research would suggest, are not really any safer," said McCartt. "Talking on a hands-free phone isn't really safe either."

Still Broken, Still Abandoned
This was one of the first games I got on my first iPhone, played it inspite of random crashing, the mistakes like the charges not matching the money numbers, the weird thing about not being able to connect short curves over water, all of the issues. Two years ago they updated the icon. Last month they changed the icon again, and now you can't save your game unless you buy a save. Problems are still there but now there's the added pleasure of an infuriating moneygrab. I'm done. Deleted.
This is super game! It is developed specially for strategy fans, however personally for me it was difficult here and there. To be honest I haven't yet passed it all through!!
I had to activate my brain to prevent engines collision) It is more difficult further, overall I recommend it to everyone - this game is noteworthy!

DLC Transfer from Old Xbox 360 to the New Slim Xbox 360?
I had my Xbox 360 for a long time and I was thinking of upgrading to the new slim Xbox 360.
I needed a bigger HDD and a new wireless network adopter anyway...
So... If I have the Yavin 4 DLC for this game on an Xbox 360 HDD, will I be able to transfer it to another Xbox 360 HDD with a data migration cable?
I also have few of the other original Xbox DLC such as Halo 2 map packs stored on this HDD.
If I can't transfer the DLC data, I would rather just buy another wireless network adopter and another fat 360 HDD and switch between HDDs than a new slim Xbox 360...
Please help, any information will be appreciated.
Thanks. :)
I'm pretty sure that the cable won't work. That cable will transfer your saved games over properly, but I don't think it'll work for DLC, as the licences for DLC are tied to each console. Even if it transfers the content, you won't be able to relicence it online anymore with the original Xbox support gone. Unless the cable itself somehow updates the licences, but I'd seriously doubt that.
My 360 just RRoD'ed a month ago, and I got a refurbished one back. I can't use Yavin Station or Ninja Gaiden's DLC anymore because I have no way to renew the licences.
So you might not want to toss away your old console yet.
Ninja Gaiden Black FTW!!!
You can not go online with a normal XBOX game on the 360 can you? I know usually you can get around that little license problem by playing online.
"Like Ben Franklin said, bub... only two things certain in life.... an' this ain't taxes. SNIKT!" Wolverine
No, you can't go online with them like with the 360 games because it signs out your profile / gamertag upon starting the game, I believe. And even if you could, they disabled the servers for the original games a few months ago anyway. This wouldn't have been an issue in March.
Anyway, if I'm wrong, I'd love to know, because I now have a lot of useless DLC sitting on my hard drive that I want to play again.
Ninja Gaiden Black FTW!!!
My new Xbox 360 is on its way and I'll let you know if it'll work or not.
Ninja Gaiden's DLC was XBL only wasn't it? Meaning, it'll only work while you're signed onto your XBL account. So, this wouldn't have worked anyway after the server going offline in April.
On second thought, I don't think Halo 2 DLC would work either, you can't even play it online anymore, so no need for the multiplayer maps...
I would still love to have Yavin Station though...
Does NOT work!
Files can be transferred as original Xbox save files.
The transferred original Xbox files will then remain as "Unknown" files until you boot the Xbox game associated with it in the new machine/HDD.
Save files seem to recover just fine, however the DLC files are identified as corrupted files and will not work on the new Xbox 360 HDD.

EU imposes sanctions on 12 Syrian ministers
Published on Jun 23, 2014 5:43 PM
LUXEMBOURG (Reuters) - European Union foreign ministers agreed on Monday to impose an asset freeze and travel ban on 12 Syrian government ministers, accusing them of"responsibility for serious human rights violations".
The ministers' names will only be published in the EU's Official Journal on Tuesday, when the sanctions will take effect, the EU said in a statement.
The decision brings to 191 the number of people targeted by EU sanctions on Syria, which has been deep in civil war for the last three years.
Fifty-three companies or other organisations, including the central bank of Syria, remain under an EU asset freeze.

Yesterday, the TIFIA Program Office released updated TIFIA program guidance and loan document templates that purport to reflect the July 6, 2012 enactment of MAP-21. Among other revisions, the TIFIA Program Guide has been updated to reflect MAP-21's endorsement of a rolling application process and the imposition of specific statutory deadlines on processing applications.
While the updated TIFIA guidance documents offer welcome support to current and prospective TIFIA applicants, there appears to be at least some additional work to be done to update the materials to properly reflect MAP-21 enhancements. For example, the updated TIFIA Loan Term Sheet and TIFIA Loan Agreement sample templates continue to reflect a maximum 33% loan amount ceiling - a limit that Congress raised in MAP-21 in order to authorize TIFIA loan amounts of up to 49% of eligible project costs.
The updated Program Guide and templates can be found on the TIFIA website.
The TIFIA Letter of Interest and Application forms remain open for review and public comment until August 5, 2013.
