A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx

If Esham were from any other city, it wouldn't be a surprise that he's black. But there aren't many Detroit hip-hop types who've got any kind of national name recognitionEminem, Kid Rock, the loathsome Insane Clown Posse, and, well, that's it. Given that Detroit has the highest percentage of black residents of any major American city, does the ethnic makeup of this list strike you as a little strange? In fact, Esham's arguably further out of the main hip-hop loop than any of those artistshe's turned up for a couple of verses on I.C.P. records, but he's not in on the "featuring" merry-go-round.
Still, it's kind of a virtue that he doesn't belong to any particular scene. The earlier records I've heard are pretty straight tough-guy boom with flashes of gruesome violence ("acid rap," he calls it), though they have odd touches, like the cover of Dead Flowerz: an extreme close-up of a blooming rose. '97's Bruce Wayne Gothom City 1987, though, was a major departure. Advertised with a Detroit-blitzing campaign of stickers that just said "Who Is Bruce Wayne?" it alternated violent posturing with flipped-out Batman-related ideation, with speaker-strangling bass and a pile of Space Invaders sound effects dumped in.
Mail Dominance keeps going in that off-the-hook direction. The first record Esham's made with an outside coproducer, it's full of strange swooshing noises, enigmatic coughs, instruments that seem to be on the wrong track, and voices at the periphery of the mix muttering nonsequiturs. It's intermittently irritating or annoyingthe production is mega-chintzy, and boy does he hate women (hook of "Ozonelayer": "You bitch/you bitch/you bitch you bitch you bitch you bitch you bitch")but it doesn't get anywhere near boring, or overfamiliar. And, smack in the middle, there's "Twirk Yo Body": Esham's stab at a crossover move, all wailing divas and Day-Glo funk guitar, with a couple of chattering, con tent-free raps thrown in. It sounds as cheap as the rest of the album, and it's a willful betrayal of his image, but boy does it bounce.
What really keeps Dominance fun, though, is that Esham keeps swaggering into places where hip-hop doesn't often tread. "Reload" is set to a hair-metal hybrid of "A Fifth of Beethoven" and "Tubular Bells"; "?" is low-grade imitation Van Halen (he's called a bunch of tracks on other discs "?" too); a synth obbligato that runs through "California Dreamin" is lifted from "Für Elise"; "Lightyearsaway" finds him rapping over the goddamn Happy Days theme. There are allusions to "Paranoid Android," "Care less Whisper" and "Mr. Sandman," plus a line that goes "With my nine-inch nail I'm going to fuck you like an animal." But historically black and white pop tend to feed off each other in Detroit: remember Funkadelic's "Who Says a Funk Band Can't Play Rock?" or the MC5 covering Sun Ra and James Brown?
The other side effect of being based in a city where Devil's Night is the major annual social event is that his "wicket shit" plays well there. For a while, Esham was appending The Unholy to his name; he's taken lots of flack over his devil-in-the-moon logo, talk about "suicidalists," and Natasit stands for "Nation Ahead Of Time And Space," he told Murder Dog magazine, but "it's Satan backwards, if you're dyslexic or something." (The one New Yorker I asked who'd heard of him, a Detroit transplant, said "Oh, yeah, Esham: he eats babies.") So these days he's retreated from Ultimate Evil to general nastiness, though it's still mighty unnerving when, for instance, he slips "blow ya fuckin' head off" into "Whoa"'s nursery-rhyme cadences and sample of "All I Have To Do Is Dream." His fans gravitate to his records for their evil quotient: "[KKKill The Fetus] was the best cause my uncle zoned out and killed himself one night thanks Esham i love you," writes one on an online discussion board.
The erstwhile baby-nosher isn't too concerned"If you can watch The Burning Bed," he says, "then you can listen to an Esham tape." Actually, the distance between fantasy and reality is the closest thing he has to a lyrical theme. He riffs on Prince's line, "I was dreaming when I wrote this" on the new album, and his vision of the three-one-three is as a nightmare from which nobody can wake up. Like George Clinton before him, he imagines himself light years away from Detroit, "outcha fuckin' atmosphere," in a world of his own that he can dominate.

On January 17, 2014, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") entered an order in the Fisker Automotive ("Fisker") chapter 11 bankruptcy cases limiting the ability of Fisker's secured lender, Hybrid Tech Holdings, LLC ("Hybrid"), to credit bid at an auction for the sale of substantially all of Fisker's assets. Hybrid immediately sought an appeal of the Bankruptcy Court's decision, but on February 7, 2014, the United States District Court of the District of Delaware (the "District Court") issued an opinion denying Hybrid's Motion for Leave to Appeal, effectively ensuring that Hybrid would not be permitted to credit bid the full amount of its secured claim. In doing so, the District Court embraced the view that a bankruptcy court may deny a lender the right to credit bid if doing so will "foster a competitive bidding environment."
Background -
When Fisker stopped manufacturing vehicles in July 2012, its capital structure consisted primarily of a $170 million secured loan held by the Department of Energy (DOE). After the parties failed to negotiate a restructuring, the DOE initiated a marketing process for the sale of its outstanding loan. The DOE retained Houlihan Lokey to run the loan sale process, which culminated in an active auction among several potential buyers. Hybrid won the auction with a bid of $25 million—acquiring the $170 million loan for approximately 15 cents on the dollar.

What are those obvious outward physical signs on Pujols?
What are those obvious outward physical signs on Pujols?
"panic" only comes from having real expectations
I think the 2006 Cardinals are the poster child for the "just make the playoffs and see what happens" school of thought.
You get in, the team gets hot, and wacky things can happen.
I would be gloriously ecstatic to accept the mantle of "worst team ever to win the WS" for the Reds. For in the MLB record book under 2006 World Champion, it would say "Cincinnati Reds" and that is all most people will remember.
Teach tolerance.
"panic" only comes from having real expectations
If you could really tell if someone was taking steroids from looking at them, then we wouldn't need drug testing, would we? While steroids can and do produce physical changes, the fact remains that all of these physical changes can be and are often produced naturally. You can increase your lean muscle mass through diet and exercise. Genetics and natural physiological occurrences can result in adult acne and premature baldness (I for example, began loosing my hair at the age of 25). Some people naturally have puffy cheeks and big heads. Your accusition of steroid use aimed at Chris Duncan would be no different than observing someone who has lost 20 pounds and saying the've got cancer. Yes, weight-loss is a physical indicator of cancer...but not all weight-loss is cancer driven.
Hence, there is no 'circumstantial' evidence that Chris Duncan has ever used steroids. You haven't even documented any physical changes in his appearance. All that can be noted about Chris from his appearance is that he is big and strong. Yeah, never seen a 6'5" 25 year old who was big and strong before. Engaging in these kind of evidence-less witch trials is a cancer on good discussion. D.GOOCH
Testing does work with anabolic steroids. And blaming MLB for an unjustified and unsupported smear that someone directs at a ballplayer doesn't sit well with me. D.GOOCH

Why do you need to copy from the dvd ie burn on the fly usually you need 2 drives normal practice is to create an Iso image of the dvd which is an exact copy then burn from that.
IMGBURN> Create Image file from disc > then Write image file to disc obviously choosing the Iso you just created chose the number of copies from the drop down box .Ha! now you have to feed the beast fopr each copy about 15min at a safe low speed a disc

Advantage is that hidden files and boot information (if needed) is always copied.
Effectively, you are cloning the disc to .iso, then back to optical disc.
Plenty of other apps can do this of course, but Imgburn is the one for me too.

Local residents who assisted in retrieving a stranded truck
containing the bodies of two men in the Eastern Bay of Plenty
have been praised by the regional council.
The men, identified as Opotiki residents Gordon Douglas
Nelson, 67 and Frederick Michael Ruff, 70, died when the tow
truck they were in crashed 25 metres down a bank on Thursday.
The incident occurred on the remote Takaputahi Rd, Toatoa,
east of Opotiki, when the pair were on a return trip from
recovering a stranded vehicle.
Adrian Heays, of the Bay of Plenty Regional Council, said
several locals - including one man who offered up his
bulldozer - helped staff from the regional council when they
arrived at the crash site.
When staff found the tow truck, it was leaking diesel and
hydraulic fluid into a stream which feeds into the Motu
Local residents brought drums to help with the situation and
assisted in putting booms into the stream, Mr Heays said.
"A local offered the use of his bulldozer and went some
distance to find a driver. Once the brakes were unlocked we
could tow the truck without gouging the stream bed and get it
right out of the water."
The truck probably had up to 200 litres of diesel and 200
litres of hydraulic fluid on board, some of which had escaped
into the stream before the response team got to the scene, Mr
Heays said.
"The local people who live in the area were amazing and
really helped us out, especially Paul Waghorne, Tony Calhoun
and Weka who came to drive the bulldozer.
"We wouldn't have been able to complete the job without
While the cause of the crash is being investigated, police
have already said weather appeared to be a factor.

Crestview is a 6th-class city in Campbell County, Kentucky, in the United States. The population was 475 at the 2010 census.[1]
The city of Crestview was originally founded as Vet Village in 1948 by veterans of World War II. The first mayor, William Toner, was a veteran who – along with Michael Guidugli, Harold Shingshang, Edward Storer and Robert Munninghoff – broke ground as the first residents of the city. Located less than 10 miles (16 km) from downtown Cincinnati, this small piece of farmland quickly became a suburb for these young soldiers and their families. In 1952, the residents decide to rename the city through a contest, and Crestview was selected.
Crestview is located in northern Campbell County at 39°1′27″N 84°25′4″W / 39.02417°N 84.41778°W (39.024129, −84.417802).[2] It is bordered to the west by Cold Spring.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.2 square miles (0.4 km2), all land.[1]
As of the census[3] of 2000, there were 471 people, 166 households, and 128 families residing in the city. The population density was 4,512.9 people per square mile (1,818.5/km²). There were 167 housing units at an average density of 1,600.1 per square mile (644.8/km²). The racial makeup of the city was 99.36% White and 0.64% Native American.
There were 166 households out of which 39.2% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 66.3% were married couples living together, 11.4% had a female householder with no husband present, and 22.3% were non-families. 18.1% of all households were made up of individuals and 9.6% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.84 and the average family size was 3.24.
In the city the population was spread out with 26.8% under the age of 18, 7.2% from 18 to 24, 32.1% from 25 to 44, 20.6% from 45 to 64, and 13.4% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 35 years. For every 100 females there were 102.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 92.7 males.
The median income for a household in the city was $48,750, and the median income for a family was $55,104. Males had a median income of $35,536 versus $30,893 for females. The per capita income for the city was $18,118. None of the families and 2.4% of the population were living below the poverty line, including no under eighteens and 5.3% of those over 64.
Residents are within the Campbell County School District.[4] Residents are zoned to Campbell County High School in Alexandria.

U.S. researchers reviewed studies on pediatric urinary tract infections and found insufficient evidence supporting AAP's recommendation of aggressive diagnosis and treatment for young children with fever due to UTIs. Only two studies included in the review tied aggressive and early UTI identification to the prevention of renal problems later in life. The findings appear in the Annals of Emergency Medicine.

I have been visiting and enjoying the incredible outdoors here in Utah for the past 15 years, I now am a proud owner of my own home and manage several other units here in Park City specifically Bear Hollow . When I moved out here to be a permanent resident I chose Bear Hollow do to it's geographical location . It is within a stones throw of restaurants and shoppes yet its location still gives you that living in the mountains feeling .
Richard purchased this house in 2005
It's convienient location to all of the resorts,restuarants ,and shoppes and the quaintness of the neighborhood,and this home is not your average rental , tons of upgrades throughout
Location by far ,Incredible comforts of Home , Spectacular floor plan and decor throughout the home
Our family was fortunate enough to spend part of our Christmas vacation this year staying at this beautiful home. The owner (Richard) was very accommodating, easy to work with, and made sure that we had everything we needed as a family to enjoy our time in the Park City area. The home itself is very, very comfortable, with enough space for our family of seven to stretch out and relax. Home is well appointed, nicely decorated, comfortable furniture and linens, great kitchen. The location cannot be beat: at the foot of the Olympic Ski jump complex; less than a mile to great shopping, then the Interstate; and very close to the Canyons ski area. Roads are well maintained in order to get around during winter storms. Skiing is fantastic. Snow tubing close by (you've got to try this if you haven't done it before.....my 68 year old mother-in-law had a BLAST!). Great shops and wonderful restaurants in the area. Bottom line: the home was wonderful, and part of a fantastic Christmas memory for our family! I would not hesitate to contact Richard again for a future stay.
Wonderful home. Extremely clean and comfortable, new appliances and accessories and lots of space. The home is equipped with a large kitchen and lots of space in the garage to store our skies and boots. The home is located near a Whole Foods and a Smiths grocery store along with a Starbucks and several restaurants. Less than a 10 minute drive to Main Street and ski areas.
We stayed at this house with another family during Christmas week. It was clean, comfortable, spacious and ideally located. The owner was super helpful with tips & suggestions. We highly recommend this rental!
This family vacation consisted of 9 people ages from 50s to freshman in college. The property is located such that activities for all are within easy access. There was bus access on the free shuttle which provides free transportation to Park City downtown as well as, to all three snow sport areas, Deer Valley, Park City, and the Canyons.
The house is extremely clean, immaculately designed and equipped providing a superb respite after an exciting day on the slopes. We cooked dinner frequently during our stay and the kitchen proved as advertised with all accouterments required for meal preparation of large portions for hungry adventurers. We would most definitely stay here again.
The house was appropriate for our family size (with 2 grandsons) and very convenient to various ski areas. The house was well equipped and maintained. While we were there we did contact the owner for assistance and he was very responsive. I would rate our trip and stay an A plus.
A group of my friends and I went for a Super Bowl weekend ski vacation. This house was terrific. It was very comfortably appointed and all of the beds were very cozy. The location is terrific for hitting any if the park city hills or hopping onto I80 and getting to the surrounding ski hills.
I would definately rent here again.

Re: Is WB simply afraid of Wonder Woman?
Yeah WW has rarer had strong sales. Now the original Perez run did great numbers, for example, but as much as I like what Perez did how much of those sales came from Perez's huge sales success from years of Teen Titans being #2 or#1, to Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Like many people have said, what is Wonder Women? There is literally dozens in just the last two decades, some that are widely widely different. If it wasn't for Perez's art I would have never, never bought the book. And I like his take on the character. It's actually one of my favorite.
The current take, I utterly despise the art. And while elements of the story I like, its a tall that has so little in relation to the original creation, that its actually turn off for me.
For the vast majority of people WW is either her cartoon character (modern), Super Friends, Lyda Carter or just the symbol. With the exception of some of the modern animation mostly her character is utterly undefined.

Engineers Without Borders-USA Founder Bernard Amadei Honored with ENR's 2008 Award of Excellence
For the past 44 years, the editors of ENR annually have selected a group of top newsmakers who have served the best interests of the engineering and construction industry. Last night, Amadei was recognized by ENR as "… an academic who is giving engineering education a new twist, founding a movement catching on with students, professionals and global communities." Amadei will be the subject of a cover story in ENR's
"It is a great honor for me to receive the 2008 award of excellence from ENR," said Amadei. "This award is meant to be shared by the staff and board of EWB-USA and the 12,000 engineering volunteers (students and professionals) who have the vision to making the world a better place. I am pleased to receive this award on their behalf.
"The engineering profession is called to play a critical role in contributing to peace and security in an increasingly challenged world," he added. "Helping 5 billion of the people at the bottom of the pyramid with the basic necessities of livelihood — water, sanitation, shelter, security, energy, education, health, etc. — is no longer an option for the engineering profession. It is an obligation," Amadei said.
What began as an overseas field trip for a handful of Amadei's engineering students in 2001 grew exponentially into a non-profit organization of more than 12,000 members comprising students, faculty and professional engineers. Their mission is to partner with developing communities to improve the quality of life by designing and building sustainable infrastructure systems that can be owned and operated without external assistance. Currently, 400 such projects are underway worldwide.
As the driving force behind EWB-USA, Amadei had the vision to mobilize the engineering profession "… to contribute to the building of a more sustainable, stable and equitable world." He is a professor of civil engineering at the
EWB-USA is a U.S.-based, non-governmental organization with a 3-fold mission: partnering with disadvantaged communities to improve quality of life; implementing environmentally and economically sustainable engineering projects; and developing internationally responsible engineers and engineering students. At the same time, EWB-USA provides an educational platform on which to educate a new generation of students about the important environmental, economic and social issues facing the world.

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said the BJP's prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, should stop fooling people, charging that the Gujarat model was not in the interest of the masses.
Addressing a rally here, Mr. Gandhi said: "None can make fools [ulloos] of Biharis. The people of Bihar will make their own model and run it well. They don't need any model. All that needs to be done is give them a free hand. You don't suffer from any shortcomings."
The Gujarat model, he explained, was nothing but forcible acquisition of land from farmers and giving it to a few favoured people at the cost of toffees and balloons. More that 45,000 acres of land were handed over to one person alone for a token price of Rs. 300 crore, Mr. Gandhi said. This "toffee or chocolate model," he said, was not meant for the poor. "If you earn less than Rs. 11 in Gujarat you are poor, but if you're earning is Rs. 12 you're are rich."
"In Bihar, the model you develop alone will succeed," he said, running down the Gujarat model and Mr. Modi's claims.
"The people of Bihar are endowed with one of the finest-tuned radar like those fitted in aircrafts and they can decipher what lies one is saying."
Another person in Gujarat, the Congress vice-president said, was given equally precious land for just Rs. 30 crore and the manufacturers of Nano car were given Rs. 10,000 crore at an interest rate of just 0.10 per cent.

The Wenwu Temple made me do a double take. After hours of driving through little villages and narrow mountain roads, I'd thought this temple that stood on the north-eastern shore of the Sun Moon Lake would be a little shrine.
But, through its elaborate gates I was looking at an even more elaborate multi-tiered place of worship that looked as if it had been painstakingly planned and constructed with care.
Symmetry was all prevalent and the colour scheme of ochre and red stood out proudly under the bright blue sky. The architecture, in fact, follows the striking lines of the Northern Dynasty (386 – 581 AD).
The Wenwu temple was built in 1938, and expanded in 1969. It suffered severe damage during the catastrophic 1999 earthquake in Taiwan. But, today, it stands unblemished again.
I walked through its tiers, past separate halls dedicated to Confucius and his disciples and Taoist deities. The views of the Sun Moon Lake from the terrace of the uppermost tier are arresting, and should be seen during the first half of the day when the Sun is as yet behind you.
Soothing views
I was thinking of returning the next morning, but my room in Hotel Fleur de Chine, with its soothing views over the lake that I could appreciate while soaking in the natural hot spring-fed pool within my room, lulled me into holiday mode.
The hotel sources the water from the hot springs within the area and the average temperature of the water is 45 to 55 degrees C and the ph value is 8.6 — very relaxing for a leisurely soak.
I plugged in my iPod, plonked myself into the pool and plugged out of the world, floating away on my favourite music.
In fact, staying at Fleur de Chine was a highlight of my visit to the Sun Moon Lake.
The other highlight was cycling. Recharged and rejuvenated, I was now up for some adrenaline action. The tourist authority is intensely promoting cycling in Taiwan and there are dedicated trails and cycle hire shops all over.
At the latter, the cycling enthusiast as well as the first-timer can hire state-of-the-art cycles with disc brakes and a standard 21-speed gear system that will let the cyclist handle every decline and incline with confidence and ease.
Plus, most bike shops have a phone in the saddle bag that is GPS enabled, and this lets them track you on their system.
The big daddy of the cycling trails around Sun Moon Lake is the 29-km 'Round the Lake' trail. A superb way to explore the region. If you do the circuit like a transport section of a rally, you could do it in a shade over two hours.
But my advice is — take it in as you'd enjoy fine claret. Sip in the soothing views that range from cherry blossoms to reflections of the mountain peaks in the calm blue green waters of the lake, and savour the fresh air. From noon to dusk, a light breeze helps beat back the heat. But again, my advice is to do this ride just as the sun is coming up — you will be rewarded by gorgeous skies, and the soundtrack of your ride will be an assortment of birdsong.
Spirited encounter
One of the popular spots you can access during this ride is the Lalu Island, considered the home of Thao ancestral spirits. Before the 1999 earthquake that changed the geography of the island, there used to be a 'Matchmaker Pavilion' on the island, where you could come and make requests to the matchmaker God seeking a husband or wife.
But, if you don't want to be an aspiring Lance Armstrong, there are other shorter trails too, such as the two-km Moonlake bikeway that goes past rich and changing ecologies and forests. Then, there is the Toushe bikeway that has the cyclist pedalling past flat farm fields, flocks of flying egrets and rustic farmhouses.
And, if you're hungry, it is never a problem. In Taiwan, there are always road-side stalls selling egg rolls, a light, sweet and crumbly roll made of egg batter.
Then, there are pastries with cream and sweet red bean paste that are ever so delicious. For the meat-eaters, paradise is here in form of grilled sausages on sticks and sesame pork on skewers that can be munched on the move.
The Sun Moon Lake is around three hours by road from Taipei, the capital of Taiwan. But, if you arrive at Taoyuan Airport, Taipei's international airport, you can take the high-speed train from Taoyuan to Taichung. From there, it is an hour's drive to the Fleur de Chine hotel and Sun Moon Lake.

Home ground advantage and a superior defence should ensure the Stormers beat the Bulls, writes Keo in his Business Day column.
The Bulls got a hometown decision to beat the Crusaders with the last movement of the game, but there was nothing dubious about the Sharks victory against the play-off chasing Stormers in Durban.
The Stormers were physically beaten up and overwhelmed in the collisions. The Sharks were never going to be easy for the Stormers, but few could have expected them to be this tough. Their form this season did not make allowance for victory, but the lesson again was that when two South African teams meet form and the league position is meaningless.
The Stormers, physically superior in every one of their matches this season, were second best throughout and their supporters need to be big enough to admit it and hope for an improved performance against the Bulls at Newlands this weekend.
Defeat could see the Stormers miss the play-offs; victory could give them a home semi-final; such are the margins in this wonderful competition.
The 2010 Super 14 season has been one of the best in the last decade. With one round to play only the Bulls are guaranteed a play-off. It is this uncertainty that makes for a brilliant competition, and for the most the intensity in the top tier clashes has matched the hype.
The performances of the bottom six unfortunately can't be spoken of with similar enthusiasm and the quality of rugby in the Lions defeat to the Blues and the Cheetahs victory against the Western Force could not be compared to what was produced at Loftus and in Durban.
The Bulls escape against the Crusaders was one of the better matches of the season, but the ending could not have been crueler for the visitors. The Bulls did not deserve to win this one, but then this could have been said of so many of the last minute victories the Crusaders achieved during their seven-year domination of the tournament.
But it was the manner of victory that irks because the last pass was clearly forward and when you beat a team like the Crusaders you want to do it because you are better on the night and not because the hometown officials ruled in your favour.
Crusaders captain Richie McCaw had every reason to fume during the game and afterwards. I've seen some visiting teams done a dirty in South Africa, but the bias in this match was particularly embarrassing.
The Crusaders can still qualify if they beat the Brumbies and they may even be back at the highveld for a semi-final against the Bulls, where playing in Soweto will not be as daunting as a visit to Fortress Loftus. The Crusaders and Hurricanes are two teams that have always troubled the Bulls and the Canes looked particularly dangerous in their demolition of the Reds. Could they have finally run into form at the right time? The Bulls will be hoping to avoid them in the semi-finals.
The Bulls, so clinical for most of the campaign, have shown vulnerability and that is why the Stormers will beat them at Newlands. The Stormers will match the Bulls for physicality, Andries Bekker is the only lock in the competition who can trouble Victor Matfield and the Stormers defensive structure is superior to the Bulls.
It will be close, but home ground advantage will be decisive, as will the do or die situation of the Stormers. Lose and their campaign is finished. Win and they will have a home semi-final and potentially a home final if the Bulls get exposed in Soweto.
It makes for a fascinating final weekend and had the Bulls and Stormers won there would have been every chance the respective sides would have played under strength teams for a match that would have little outcome on the league standings. Not anymore. And that's a great thing as the game was sold out three weeks ago.
The Sharks win underlined how they have underachieved yet again. I have said it previously that the Sharks are to rugby what Real Madrid is to the European Cup, and for a franchise with as big a chequebook it is unacceptable.
There is however no consequence to failure in South African rugby. It is why the Sharks survive on the hype and the Lions continue to flop because they are guaranteed participation in Super rugby, regardless of performance.
The meek surrender against the disjointed and erratic Blues was disgusting but fortunately the Lions are not representative of the strength in South Africa. They represent everything that is wrong with the game in this country, while the Bulls and Stormers are examples of what should be the norm and not the exception.

Last year I did the intermediate skipper and my wife did the intermediate crew with Mike Young of
30,000 Island Sailing Adventures
. He runs his course out of Killbear Marina (Just North of Parry Sound).
I believe we paid about $899.00 each (not over a grand anyway - my wife's the fiscally astute one in the family). We were also responsible for provisions.
It was a five-day liveaboard. The course was excellent. Mike was a strict but fair instructor. Once he got a handle on our abilities he let us manage the boat. By the end of the week it felt more like a cruise with a friend than a classroom. Mike was really good about correcting my mistakes. He was able to define my weaknesses and allowed me to find solutions without making me feel like a ****. Throughout the week we would have challenges thrown at us: finding position using LOBs; MAFOR (we were responsible for deciphering this every day), etc. By the end of the week we had covered the curriculum and more without realizing it.
Another advantage is that the area around Killbear is amazing. Lot's of little hidy holes around Franklin and Shawanaga Islands. (We were through there just last week and were very grateful to Mike for sharing some of his anchorages with us.)
I have no connection with the school, other than being a very satisfied 'graduate'.

Cleveland is possibly shopping Westbrook and he is the type of pitcher this team needs. A Groundball pitcher that will fit nicely as a #3 and i would only do it if the Reds had a 72 hour window to try and get him a long term deal. because i wouldnt give up good prospects for him if he walks..
maybe a Ramirez, Cormier, Dumatrait or Belisle
for Westbrook?

US: Taliban must renounce terrorism for talks
Ludin expressed the Afghan government's support in getting a Taliban political office opened in Qatar and said it also would back an American decision to transfer some Taliban detainees from the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Qatar.
"If the United States decides to transfer these detainees to Qatar, to the extent that that means that these people will be reunited with their families, the Afghan government will support it. ... but you also will have to ascertain the desire of the detainees themselves," Ludin said.
Grossman said no decision has been made about the transferring detainees from Guantanamo Bay.

Posilight - look for it in your grocer's freezer
By Ben Coxworth
February 16, 2010
If you're trying to reduce your carbon footprint, replacing traditional fluorescent tube lighting with more energy-efficient alternatives is a good way to start. And when most of us think fluorescents, we think ceiling lights. The fact is, though, a great deal of the world's fluorescent lights are installed somewhere else - in grocery store coolers and freezers. The creators of a new product called Posilight are hoping to replace those tubes with their own LED-based product that will save power, save money, and save food.
The Posilight is a strip of LED's, mounted on a unit the same shape and size as a fluorescent tube. That unit and its power supply plug straight into a traditional fluorescent fixture, so no retrofitting is required. It is said to have several advantages over old-school fluorescents:
The Posilight is available in a variety of lengths, and in mono (one-strip) and duo (two-strip) versions. It's very reminiscent of a product we've seen on Gizmag before, offered by ReLED Systems.
Cool, though earthLED already has a similar product (It is nice to see more companies offering such technology)Jason Miller
Hi.. these numbers are wrong! LED are not more efficient then florescent tubes. A florescent tube gives 50-100 lumens/Watt where LED\'s are 20-80 lumens/Watt. Typical values are incandescent: 14 lumens/Watt, LED: 60 lumens/Watt, florescent: 90 lumens/Watt.
LED\'s do have a much longer lifetime, so they are better for use in hard to reach areas. But they will produce residual heat then a florescent tube giving out the same amount of light. Where LED\'s also win, is that they are directional, so the light goes where you want it; but in a fridge application this is actually not ideal, and what manufactures try to do is mimic the lighting of the florescent tubes.
These numbers are easy to check.. wikipedia if you must; see \"Luminous efficacy\". I\'m disappointed that Mr. Coxworth didn\'t check his sources before publishing!Rodger Evans
Rodger, you\'re thinking of conventional LEDs. Superbright LEDs are a whole different animal. Luxeon beat 100 lumens per watt years ago and Cree recently broke the 200 lumens per watt barrier.
Something else that somebody should manufacture is an alarm for freezer doors that stay open more than a few seconds. I get steamed whenever I see some nitwit standing there with the freezer door open for at least a minute, reading the box. Hey, moron, here\'s an interesting fact you may not know about glass. It\'s transparent! Read through the door! Or if you must, take the package out, close the door then read the package.Gadgeteer
Just saw this in QFC the other day, coupled with motion sensors, so it only turned on when someone was standing in front of the door. Also its kind of fun to walk down an aisle and have each door light up for you as you approach!techwhore
@Gadgeteer: Here's another thing about glass - it gets fogged over, and makes it not so transparent. Also, there are some people that have compromised vision, wear eyeglasses and looking through another layer of not-optical quality glass makes it hard to read, especially fine print. Your last sentence is the only logical compromise, but sometimes people are taking this carbon-footprint thing just a little too far. Electricity didn't get more expensive, the providers got greedier...and so far, the public seems willing to be continually raped.Patrick Dennison

Key stats from an official report released by the MPAA today:
•Global box office for all films released in each country around the world reached $34.7 billion in 2012, up 6% over 2011's total, due to an increase in international box office ($23.9 billion) and U.S./Canada box office ($10.8 billion). All international regions with the exception of Europe experienced growth in 2012. Chinese box office ($2.7 billion) grew by 36% in 2012 to become the largest international market, surpassing Japan.
•International box office is up 32% over five years ago, driven by growth in various international markets, including China, Russia and Brazil.
•Over two-thirds of the world's nearly 130,000 cinema screens are now digital.
•2012 U.S./Canada box office was $10.8 billion, up 6% compared to $10.2 billion in 2011, and up 12% from five years ago. 3D box office was similar to 2011 ($1.8 billion), despite fewer 3D film releases.
•The 2012 increase in U.S./Canada box office was due to an equivalent increase in admissions (6%) compared to 2011, as admissions reached 1.36 billion, while the average cinema ticket price stayed flat.
•More than two-thirds of the U.S./Canada population (68%) - or 225 million people - went to the movies at least once in 2012, consistent with prior years. Ticket sales continue to be driven by frequent moviegoers who attend once a month or more. In 2012, frequent moviegoers represented 13% of the population and 57% of all movie tickets, an increase of 7 percentage points in ticket share from 2011, at the expense of occasional moviegoer ticket share. This suggests that the increase in ticket sales in 2012 was among moviegoers who increased their attendance from less than once a month, to once a month or more.
•Broader moviegoer demographic shares remain relatively stable from 2011 to 2012, with 12-24 year olds and Hispanics continuing to oversample in moviegoing versus their proportion of the population - however, 2012 saw increases in the number of frequent moviegoers in nearly every ethnicity and age group, notably in the 40-49 year old group.
•In 2012, 48% of all U.S./Canada moviegoers viewed at least one movie in 3D, with attendance continuing to skew toward younger moviegoers.
COLUMBUS, Ga. & DESTIN, Fla. -- Carmike Cinemas, Inc. (NASDAQ: CKEC), a leading DIGITAL cinema and 3-D motion picture exhibitor, announced today that its state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 entertainment complex, set to open March 29th, will be home to the theatre circuit's second Ovation Dining Club, an upscale dining and movie-going experience that is the "dinner-and-a-movie" concept tweaked and enhanced for the 21st Century.
Located in Grand Boulevard at Sandestin, a beautifully landscaped retail center known for its high-end shopping and dining establishments, the Ovation Dining Club in the Boulevard 10 offers moviegoers a more intimate, sophisticated experience, replete with lush leather seating, swing around tables, a wall-to-wall movie screen, wide selection of premium beers and wine and a full-service restaurant experience.
Imagine immersing oneself in the latest Hollywood blockbuster while being served succulent dishes that range from a simple cheese plate of gruyere and brie with apple, dried and fresh fruit, compote, and toasted baguette; to seared bay scallops with grilled polenta, topped with micro greens and garnished with basil oil and red pepper drizzle; to a soy-glazed chicken breast wrapped in a tomato herb tortilla, with a sweet Asian sesame slaw, peppers, onion, garlic and carrots.
That is a long way from popcorn and candy. But then again, the Ovation Dining Club is for a different type of movie and dining experience. The luxury recliners and over-21 age policy create a perfect backdrop for a date night with that special someone. The drinks, appetizers, and dessert options make it a great spot for a girls' night out; and the time saved by doing dinner with a movie produce the perfect venue for after-work social gatherings.
It's a movie theatre. It's a restaurant. It is the premiere place to watch the future of film and experience the future of film-going, all while enjoying delicious appetizers, entrees, desserts and your favorite wines and beers brought right to your seat.
Join Carmike Cinemas and Grand Boulevard at Sandestin as they celebrate the grand opening of the Boulevard 10 and its crown jewel: the Ovation Dining Club.
COLUMBUS, Ga. & DESTIN, Fla. -- Carmike Cinemas, Inc. (NASDAQ: CKEC), a leading DIGITAL cinema and 3-D motion picture exhibitor, announced today that it will unveil its newest entertainment complex at Grand Boulevard located at the entrance of the 2,400-acre Sandestin® Golf and Beach Resort, just east of Destin, between Panama City and Pensacola, Florida. Opening night will be Thursday, March 28, 2013 at Midnight. The new Carmike theatre, named the Boulevard 10, will feature ten screens with total seating for 1,800 and will be highlighted by a state-of-the-art "BIGD" auditorium and Ovation Dining Club, Carmike's premium theatre environments. The grand opening of the Boulevard 10 will feature a selection of Hollywood's latest movies, including the special debut Midnight presentation of "G.I. Joe: Retaliation."
Carmike Cinemas President and Chief Executive Officer David Passman stated, "Carmike continues actively expanding our growing circuit, on our way to 300 theatres and 3,000 screens through selective acquisitions and the addition of multiple new-build theatres in promising locations like Sandestin, across 'Hometown America. The "BIGD" and Ovation Dining Club will both be Carmike's first flagship venues of this type in Florida. Recent Carmike Florida expansion took place along the Space Coast in Melbourne and Port St. Lucie and along the Emerald Coast in Pensacola with the acquisition of four theatres from Rave Motion Pictures. Carmike has had a significant presence in Panama City and Pensacola for many years.
"We're providing the ultimate entertainment experience that features large format DIGITAL with bigger screens, bigger and better sound, and the finest in-theatre seating for cutting-edge presentation and the definitive enjoyment of our audiences. Furthermore, with the opening of our newest location, the Sandestin area joins a select and growing list of communities across the nation offering Carmike theatregoers the exciting "BIGD" format. The Sandestin Ovation Dining Club is only our second in the country and has been raved about in Chattanooga, TN, site of our first location. Many of our guests tell us that with limited time for leisure in their busy lives, they enjoy the option of combining a tasty dinner and refreshments, with a leading Hollywood movie."
The entertainment complex is equipped with auditoriums featuring state-of-the-art stadium style seating, with comfortable high back luxury chairs, retractable armrests and convenient cup holders. The Carmike Boulevard 10 also contains large, wall-to-wall screens, as well as DLP DIGITAL projection and DIGITAL sound. The new theatre has an upscale lobby, multiple concession areas featuring Coca-Cola Freestyle drink centers and an indoor box office, so filmgoers can escape the elements.
The "BIGD" auditorium includes a wall-to-wall screen measuring 60 feet wide and nearly three stories tall, the latest in surround sound and DIGITAL projection of both 2-D and 3-D features. In technical terms, Carmike's "BIGD" DIGITAL experience is powered by a Christie Brilliant 3-D flash projector. The end result is a light output of 30,000 lumens, creating a picture quality with noticeably higher resolution than HD.
To further enhance the experience, the custom QSC DIGITAL audio system is tuned to a 7.1 speaker array with 16 channels and the ability to upgrade to 11.1, a revolution in surround sound technology with DIGITAL audio processing supported by quad-amplified, 4-way speakers and 21-inch subwoofers. The new, expanded configuration at the Boulevard 10 promises a new gold standard in unparalleled picture clarity and deep resonating DIGITAL sound.
"We are very pleased with the tremendous, positive response we have received from moviegoers about their enhanced enjoyment while seeing films in our "BIGD" ultimate movie-going experience and have plans to open more entertainment complexes featuring "BIGD" auditoriums in 2013. Carmike Cinemas entertainment complexes currently under construction include Champaign, IL, Winchester, VA, Hickory, NC and Colorado Springs, CO. We also have plans underway for new locations in Opelika, AL, Oak Grove, KY, Montgomery, AL and Snellville, GA. Whether it is a movie, concert, sporting event, motivational speaker or church service, Carmike guests will find "BIGD" placing them at the heart of the event," notes Terrell Mayton, Carmike's Director of Marketing.
WASHINGTON D.C. -- Asa Butterfield will receive the "CinemaCon® Rising Star of 2013 Award" at this year's CinemaCon, it was announced today by the convention's Managing Director Mitch Neuhauser. CinemaCon, the largest and most important convention for the motion picture theatre industry, will be held from April 15-18, 2013 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas at which time more than 5,000 industry members will be gathering. Butterfield will be presented with this special honor at the "CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards" ceremony to take place on Thursday evening, April 18, in The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The Coca-Cola Company, the official presenting sponsor of CinemaCon, will host the final night gala awards program.
"With a stunning turn in the title role of 'Hugo,' Butterfield has already proven himself as one to watch in Hollywood," noted Neuhauser. "In a short time, he has already endured himself to audiences and critics alike with his captivating on-screen performances, and I cannot think of a young actor more deserving to be this year's CinemaCon Rising Star."
Butterfield can be seen later this year in "Ender's Game," which is set to be released by Summit Entertainment, a LIONSGATE® company, on November 1, 2013. The epic adventure is based on the best-selling, award-winning novel, and stars Butterfield as Ender - a shy but gifted student who is selected by the government to be humanity's next great hope. Ender is sent to an elite military academy to train for the next alien invasion, where he rises to become an accomplished and compassionate leader of fellow soldiers, preparing for the epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and the safety of the human race. "Ender's Game" also stars Ben Kingsley, Hailee Steinfeld and Viola Davis with Abigail Breslin and Harrison Ford.
Butterfield first garnered critical acclaim for his starring role in "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas," for which he received a nomination for "Most Promising Newcomer" from the British Independent Film Awards and "Young British Performer of the Year" from the London Critics Circle Film Awards. He can last be seen starring as the title role in Martin Scorsese's 3D adventure "Hugo," which earned him a Critics Choice Award nomination for Best Young Actor. His previous film credits include "Son of Rambow," "The Wolfman" and "Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang." His television credits include a recurring role on the BBC series "Merlin."

John Oliver and Cookie Monster team up for best education newscast everAdd to Favorites | Last Week Tonight With John Oliver
"Last Week Tonight" host John Oliver is no stranger to making viral, exaggerated, headline-creating videos by now. However, when he teams up with America's favorite cookie addict to teach children, and their parents, some new vocabulary words, things get more epic than they ever have before.
The "Sesame Street" team produced the segment in conjunction with their "Words are Here, There and Everywhere" vocabulary initiative. While Oliver and Cookie Monster make quite the news team themselves, they also recruited the star power of Kate McKinnon, Al Roker, Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally. It's a star-studded affair as the news anchors grapple with the hard-hitting issues like why is the word abbreviation so long and where has the letter "C" gone?
Children will enjoy the silliness of Cookie Monster's obsession with Oliver's tie and Roker's temper tantrum, but there's just enough cheekiness for parents to be able to enjoy it while trying to educate their young ones.
