Rated 3 out of 5Â by 11 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5Â by jessie cute I am 5'7'' 120 lbs and normally an xs in freepeople. I bought this an xs and it is TTS. although it IS sheer, I think it can be worn as a skirt as long as there is something underneath. I have the seamless romper and it works great with this skirt. The blue is very different from the pictured skirt. It is a few shades darker and is less sky and more turquoise but i really enjoy the color anyway so I will not be returning it. overall it is fun and flirty and is a great layering piece as well as a skirt. 4.13.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by katieh Short and Sweet This slip is pretty cute, semi sheer, and a little short. I bought the charcoal in a large and it is very pretty, but again so sheer and short. I layered mine with some tunics and leggings and got some really great combinations.. I am 5'9" and this landed well above mid-thigh. I will keep this because it can be used for layering, but that is all. This is NOT a stand alone piece. 4.11.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by NinjaGirl This is really a slip Because it is so sheer, I will be wearing it more as a slip rather than a skirt. I purchased it in turquoise and it is pretty close to the color seen online. The lace trim at the bottom is very delicate and will look so pretty peeking out from the bottom of some of my new FP tunics this spring. 4.5.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by arizonagirl31 Short & Sheer While absolutely beautiful this skirt is incredibly sheer. My runs slightly small rating is only because of the shortness, it is very stretchy and not at all tight. Better as a layering piece than a skirt on its own. 7.1.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by valskerie Great for layering! I bought this mini strictly for layering purposes. The charcoal, which is the darkest color, is still pretty sheer. It's short, but gives tunics some extra length. It can be versatile by layering over leggings, jeans and bike shorts. If you want more length, you can pull it down below your belly button, or it can even be worn as a tube top. 7.27.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by marissarose Lovely piece This piece so cute and would be perfect piece for a flirty style. I brought the marigold version at the store, so I wasn't surprised when the top half is almost the same color as the bottom half(just a few shades lighter). I would recommend to wear something under this even because it's sheer (unless you have nude panties on, you can barley see them) and if the wind catches you...you better be ready for flashing people. I got the small and im 5'7 and around 100 pounds. The length stops a few inches above the halfway point down my thigh. The fit also feels nice and I wouldn't think twice about getting the x-small. 7.23.2012
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Rochelle Marigold id better I bought the blue and was disappointed. Not represented closely to the real product at all. The blue you get is a medium dingy and duller blue opposed to the cool blue that portrayed. Also its monotone. There is no difference in shearness of fabric or tone of color. If you'll notice, the lace at the bottom is shown in pix as lighter and more shear. That's not what you'll get. I shipped it right back and exchanged for the Marigold. Happy with this color because it's a realistic portrayal. 4.30.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Nepenthae So feminine! I was hesitant to buy this skirt due to all the bad reviews, but I purchased it in an XS in the charcoal, and it is gorgeous and floaty and oh so feminine. I am 5'3, and it is definitely not too short to wear as a skirt, although it is a bit see through, so I just pair it with a pair of free people lace shorts, or layer under a tunic or slip. It also doubles perfectly as a top, and is definitely not too see through to be worn as a shirt (I am a 32 D for reference). Buy this skirt, it is perfect for summer! 4.29.2012

I did this post almost a year ago, I figured that since the world is freezing once again I would bring it back..
Each "snowflake" represents a headline in the news about how the country is getting colder than date night with the Clintons. Give them a rollover with your mouse and watch Al Gore try to eat his words. (use Firefox or Internet Explorer)
The headlines and links are from last year, I don't know if many (or any) still work. I could update them, but it's all just going to sound the same anyway...

BEAUTIFUL BOY FORUM: Share Your Stories
Since the publication of Beautiful Boy, Ive met hundreds of people and heard from thousands more. They represent millions of uspeople whose lives have been impacted by their own or a loved ones addiction. Many told overwhelmingly heartrending stories. People wrote or spoke about the ways addiction has consumed (and often still consumes) their lives. Their pain is so familiar to me--desperate and unbearable. Everyday I hear more stories. Sometimes I feel as if Ill drown. Relapse, loss, anguish, rage, death the stories often devastate me. Theres death everywhere. Your familys story is my familys story, people say. Over and over and over again. But we had a different conclusion. My beautiful boy didnt make it. My beautiful girl died.
Theres grief and despair, but also hope hope measured in years or months or weeks or a day. A woman in recovery for thirty-seven years. A girl who says shes been sober three days. And everyone in between.
Through my experience as well as others Ive come to understand the power of sharing our stories with one another. For me, it was an enormous relief to know I wasn't alone. I felt slightly less overwhelmed. In addition, others stories prepared me for challenges that would have otherwise blindsided me. They were no panacea, but I was grateful for even the most modest relief and any guidance.
This forum is for us all of us -- anyone who has been touched by addiction

In addition to a forum for us to share our stories, Ive initiated this forum for us to explore the problem of addiction in America and to discuss new ways forward. In the afterword to the paperback edition of Beautiful Boy, I propose one option: the declaration of a war on addiction modeled on the war on cancer. Given the enormity of the suffering, its astounding that we the collective we are doing almost everything wrong in our fight against addiction. Four thousand Americans have died in five years in Iraq, whereas more than twenty thousand die each year of drug overdoses alone, and the number continues to rise. In many regions of the country, overdoses have or will soon surpass automobile accidents as the leading cause of non-natural death. Add the other casualties of drug use -- crime, accidents, suicide, drug- and alcohol-caused illnesses, lost productivity -- and you begin to fathom the enormity of the problem. After hearing countless stories from people who have been betrayed by Americas mental-health care system, I began to explore alternatives. This is a place to discuss them. Ive determined that if we tackle addiction for what it is as a healthealth crisis -- we could reverse the course were on. We could dramatically lower emergency room visits and decrease prison populations. Wed eventually free up billions of dollars to treat other illnesses, dramatically improving health care across the board. Wed save lives. Wed help families stay together and repair broken neighborhoods. Wed alleviate immeasurable suffering.

The best steak houses on Long Island
Long Island is in its prime.
There have never been as many excellent red-meat restaurants in either Nassau or Suffolk as there are today. And they're very, very popular, even as the tab effortlessly exceeds $100 per person. Ask a friend or neighbor where he or she would like to go for dinner on a major night out, and the odds are good that it will be a steakhouse.
These 10 names, listed alphabetically, are at the top.
Blackstone Steakhouse(Credit: Jeremy Bales)
Blackstone Steakhouse, Melville: Modern in look and traditional in style, Blackstone also combines the two at the table. It could be a first-class contender in the best sushi category, too. And there are exceptional shellfish cocktails, raw bar stars, major lobsters. The essential steaks here are the filet mignon, sirloin and porterhouse for two, three or four. Their competition comes from veal chops and lamb chops. Uniformly fine sides. Suitably extravagant sweets.
Blackstone Steakhouse in Melville serves a Blackstone supreme sushi roll made of Kobe beef, avocado, spicy tuna, king crab and spicy eel sauce.
Bryant & Cooper(Credit: Bruce Gilbert)
Bryant ... Cooper, Roslyn: Nearing the close of its third decade, Bryant ... Cooper has developed a patina. It can be noisy, crowded and sometimes brusque, but this clubby cornerstone of the Poll brothers' restaurant group turns first-timers to regulars with the sirloin, the chopped sirloin with onions, filet mignon, porterhouse (pictured) and prime rib. Precede them with a shellfish cocktail or a salad; accompany them with any of the superior spuds.
A husky prime rib is one of the signature dishes at Bryant ... Cooper in Roslyn.
Frank's Steaks(Credit: Daniel Brennan)
Frank's Steaks, Jericho and Rockville Centre: On this list where dinners can exceed $100 per person, the two branches of Frank's Steaks seem like bargains. In many ways, they are. These are family-friendly and unpretentious, accommodating and attentive restaurants. The Jericho spot is in a small shopping center; in Rockville Centre, at what once was the Lincoln Inn. You'll favor the well-seasoned, marinated Romanian steak (pictured). But consider the filet mignon and the New York strip, the sirloin burger and the calf's liver.
At Frank's Steaks, New Zealand rack of lamb is served traditionally, with mint jelly.
Insignia(Credit: Randee Daddona)
Insignia, Smithtown: High rollers, unite. Insignia is your place. This extravagant, glittery, over-the-top sprawl of a restaurant is built to impress. The bar scene provides a live-action sideshow. And, still, what's most memorable is the quality of the beef and the seafood. Strip steak, filet mignon, rib-eye (pictured), porterhouse, whole grilled fish of the day, sushi and sashimi all are recommended at Anthony Scotto's restaurant, which makes his Blackstone seem almost monastic.
Insignia's surf 'n' turf roll is made with lobster, king crab, seared Kobe beef and white truffle oil.
Mac's Steakhouse(Credit: Bruce Gilbert)
Mac's Steakhouse, Huntington: Mac's rarely gets the publicity it deserves in this high-profile competition. The grass-fed, dry-aged steaks go marbling-to-marbling with any. The special, 60-day, bone-in sirloin (pictured) stands alone, followed by the 30-day one; the rib-eye; and the porterhouse. The cherry-pepper sparked steak; horseradish-cream finished sirloin; the pork porterhouse; and the short-rib and meatball appetizers mean business.
Also notable at Mac's is the 16-ounce pork chop, which is accompanied by a sweet potato mash, sauteed spinach and warm apple-raisin chutney.
George Martin's Strip Steak(Credit: Doug Young)
George Martin's Strip Steak, Great River: The peak of the George Martin Group restaurants, Strip Steak updates the steakhouse approach, making it work for more than carnivores. Excellent service and consistently fine American cooking are the lures at this deluxe offspring of the original George Martin in Rockville Centre. It's a prime site that looks grand, at the end of the Southern State Parkway. Recommended: porterhouse steak for two, filet mignon, maple-brined Berkshire pork chop, merlot-braised short ribs, apple crisp, oysters Rockefeller, crabmeat cocktail, crabcake.

The Palm at Huntting Inn(Credit: Daniel Gonzalez)
The Palm, East Hampton: The national chain finds a country home on Main Street. Much more relaxed than, for example, the New York City and Washington, D.C., branches. The New York strip, bone-in filet mignon and T-bone are the big cuts. Palm does well with shellfish cocktails; shrimps Bruno, a francese spin with mustard sauce; double-cut lamb chops; and chicken Parmigiana, too. Broiled lobster, three pounds and up, rivals the steak. On the side: cottage fries and fried onions. (Pictured: 28-day aged prime sirloin steak with homemade potato chips and onion rings.)
Broiled lobsters at The Palm.
Peter Luger Steak House(Credit: Johnny Simon)
Peter Luger Steak House, Great Neck: Peter Luger's classic porterhouse (pictured) inspires devotion here and at the Williamsburg original. The restaurant is extremely popular for lunch and dinner, and the service is good. Start with a shellfish cocktail, tomatoes and onions, maybe that slab of extra-thick bacon. If for some reason you're not here for the porterhouse, the prime rib and the Luger burger will do. Cheesecake or a hot fudge sundae for dessert.
Peter Luger serves a no-frills burger.
Rothmann's(Credit: Alessandro Vecchi)
Rothmann's, East Norwich: In one form or another, Rothmann's has been around since 1907. Currently, it's a steakhouse with plenty of seafood, too. Business dealings and aggressive socializing approach spectator sports. The food is very good, especially the bone-in rib-eye (pictured) and New York strip steaks; expertly steamed lobster; multicolored sushi rolls; and appetizers such as grilled octopus with white beans and shellfish cocktails.

Tellers: An American Chophouse(Credit: Doug Young)
Tellers, Islip: Situated in a converted bank building, Tellers cashes in with some superior wine in the vault and beef at table. The rib-eye (pictured) makes a dramatic impression, and the flavor is just as impressive. The porterhouse, bone-in filet mignon and boneless strip also demand attention. The "millennium" lobster, which also stars at H2O Seafood ...amp; Sushi in Smithtown, is commendable at this Bohlsen Restaurant Group destination, too. Fine side dishes and sauces.

There's too many damn good wrestlers on that roster that are being wasted and pretty much are misused or barely used at all for a small sum or chump change. By the end of these guy's careers, I'm afraid they'll end up broke or turn into just another dead

Nope. Waiting list for Housing commission houses is about ten years right now.
The rents on them are indexed so a pittance really. Not the best of houses but a roof over your head and better than being homeless. Some of them are interspersed in normal houses so you would never know. There are some horror areas yes, with estates but there are some really pretty streets of them too in really really good suburbs.
Its a bit sad and a pet peeve of mine... they are supposed to be "emergency housing" for when things are tough for people... but alot of people just never move out of them even when they get on their feet.
Some poor old dear made headlines here a few months ago. The commission wanted to move her and her husband out of her three bedroom house and into a two bedroom unit (flat) since their kids had well and truly grown up and moved out and these two dears were financially fine. She went to the press and made a furore about "I have lived here for 30 years and they want to uproot me. George is settled and I need the spare bedroom for the grandkids when they come and I wouldnt stay sane without my sewing room."
NO... You need to move out and let some poor homeless family of children have your damned sewing room so they can have a roof over their head that isnt a car roof.
They let her keep it. Poor love.
Its not that we have been affected with the GFC as much as other countries either. Far from it. It was the property boom that did this. The prices went up in some cases by 300% and so did the rents. The government rammed the interest rates down to save people NOT losing their houses and gave massive first home buyer free money incentives to keep the market booming, so thats not the problem. Its just that new home buyers now cant afford homes now that the first home buyers incentive is over, so they rent which drives the rents up more.
Maybe I am still in a bit of shock. I am not freaking out... though I suspect thats deep down boiling away. I mean... WHAT ELSE CAN HAPPEN HUH?

Clever chappies the Romans - they should never have junked the Latin Mass though, it was so much more fun when you didn't know what on earth you were saying and singing about...
I thought the Christmas tradition of giving gifts of fruit and nuts came about because the local grocer "No Where Cheaper" had an abundance of produce and sold it at cost to the locals??

Just noticed that there are some issues with changing permission on Windows machines. Basically if a user creates a folder and then he or an administrator tries to change some permissions (add additional user, propagate permissions to child objects, allow or disallow inheritance) this fails with error
"An error occurred applying security information to: <path/folder> The parameter is incorrect"
"Unable to save permissions changes on <foldername> The parameter is incorrect"
The same happens for the domain administrator account which was used to add ReadyNAS to a domain.
If I try to add additional user this actually works even after the error is displayed, however it doesn't propagate down and only affects one folder.
This definitely used to work so I suspect problem occurred after one of the recent firmware updates. I am currently on 4.2.13, but the same was happened on 4.2.12 (just upgraded hoping this would sort the problem).
Also, this seems to affect only newly created folders. With old folders everything works fine.
Any ideas how to fix this?

History of Congress and the Capitol
This is the story of one of the world's great experiments in government by the people.
For more than two centuries, a new Congress has convened every two years following elections that determine all the seats in the House and one-third of those in the Senate. While the individuals change, the institution has endured-through civil and world wars, waves of immigration and great migrations, and continuous social and technological change.
During its first quarter century, the new United States government had to find its way in the world while attending to the nation's business. Leaders met with Indian nations and faced often-hostile relations with European powers while coping with conflicts between emerging political parties and working out relationships among the three new branches of government.
The People's Chamber
The founders expected the House of Representatives to take center stage in the new American government. They felt that its status as the only national institution with members elected directly by the people made the House uniquely important - and posed special dangers."The evils we experience flow from the excess of democracy," warned Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts at the Constitutional Convention.
Through much of this early period, the House was indeed the nation's driving political force. It proposed the Bill of Rights, drafted legislation to create government agencies, carried out investigations, and shaped an aggressive policy toward Great Britain.
Getting Organized
The House of Representatives was new, yet rested on familiar foundations. The individual states had long experience with popularly elected legislatures. Representatives also looked to Britain's House of Commons, adopting ideas such as a presiding Speaker and basic parliamentary procedures. Its launch went smoothly.
What did the newly written Constitution say about freedom of speech? Freedom of religion? Nothing. The drafters of the Constitution were split over whether to list individual rights. Most felt that these were matters for state or local governments. During the first congressional election campaign, however, voters changed the minds of many lawmakers—including Virginia's James Madison, a primary framer of the Constitution.
Congressman Madison agreed that the Constitution should protect individual rights. But he and others worried that a new round of amendments could get out of hand, reshaping the government before it had a chance to prove itself. Madison carefully boiled down for the House more than 200 proposed amendments into 19 changes listing basic rights. Congress eventually passed 12. The states ratified 10 of these amendments—today's Bill of Rights.
"[T]he first Congress ... ought to prepare and recommend to the States for ratification, the most satisfactory provisions for all essential rights, particularly the rights of Conscience in the fullest latitude, the freedom of the press, trials by jury, security against general warrants &c."
— Representative James Madison of Virginia, 1789
Good government depends on good information. To get an accurate understanding of issues, congressional committees investigate. One goal of investigations is to uncover whether government agencies are performing effectively or whether new laws are needed.
The first congressional investigation, in 1792, was in response to news that Shawnee and Miami Indians had destroyed General Arthur St. Clair's army. The House formed a committee of inquiry, which asked for War Department papers. President Washington agreed—cautiously. The inquiry that followed blamed the War and Treasury departments for the defeat. Although the president's supporters prevented the House report from becoming public, the process firmly established the power of Congress to investigate.
"It was due to justice, to truth, and to the national honor, to take effectual measures to investigate the business thoroughly."
— Representative Fisher Ames of Massachusetts, 1792
In a democracy, disagreement doesn't mean disloyalty. But political parties were new in the United States, and it took time to accept the idea that opposition can strengthen a democratic society. As Congress divided into opposing political parties (Federalists, often viewed as aristocratic, versus the sometimes rambunctious Jeffersonian Republicans), debates frequently led to strong words—and, on rare occasions, more.
During a 1798 debate, Representative Matthew Lyon of Vermont, a Jeffersonian Republican, responded to taunts about his military record by spitting tobacco juice in the face of Roger Griswold, a Connecticut Federalist. Outraged that the House didn't punish "the spitting Lyon," Griswold took matters into his own hands. He attacked Lyon with a cane. Lyon then grabbed a pair of fire tongs. The two ended up wrestling on the floor of the House.
The Constitution says that the House of Representatives "shall chuse their Speaker." But it doesn't say what a Speaker does. The office evolved along with the House. At first, Speakers were largely neutral, presiding over debates and maintaining order. Then came Henry Clay of Kentucky.
Clay became Speaker in 1811, on his first day in the House. Not content simply to oversee the proceedings, he was determined to lead. Clay headed the "War Hawks" faction, which championed American interests against British activity on the seas and Western frontier. He assigned his supporters to committees involved in matters of war and peace with Britain and backed the War of 1812. Clay's forceful personality stamped the House with a partisan spirit and transformed the Speaker into its political leader.
"Come up, and you shall see how I will throw the reins over their necks."
— Speaker Henry Clay

Your nature is so repugnant to me,
Broken Mind Structures of Infirmity.
All your faith and beliefs are invalid,
All knowledge of man is perverse,
There is no savior or otherwise,
No heaven for you , no hell yet,
All prophecy and futurisms are false,
DO not dwell upon a hereafter,
All you have is ME.
My Right hand holdeth the Hydra of Faith,
The Seven Headed Snake,
Its body doth gurgle and pop,
Its innards to spew forth as pussy excrement,
So to do i drinketh their fetid poison,
With such spittle do i burn serpent eyes,
Anticipation shall inflame me,
Its heads in one bite!
My Left hand holdeth ten nations,
Every moment of my gaze doth burn them,
Every breath that i blow does infernally blast them,
Each beat of my heart freezes them in terror,
my spoken word shatters their lands,
my presence manifests,
So they eat their own innards,
And so is my hatred their hatred,
You have no God!!

New Paths toward Twenty-First Century Socialism
Over the last few decades Marta Harnecker has emerged as one of Latin America's most incisive socialist thinkers. In A World to Build, she grapples with the question that has bedeviled every movement for radical social change: how do you construct a new world within the framework of the old? Harnecker draws on lessons from socialist movements in Latin America, especially Venezuela, where she served as an advisor to the Chávez administration and was a director of the Centro Internacional Miranda. … | more |
Cuba, the Media, and the Challenge of Impartiality
In this concise and detailed work, Salim Lamrani addresses questions of media concentration and corporate bias by examining a perennially controversial topic: Cuba. Lamrani argues that the tiny island nation is forced to contend not only with economic isolation and a U.S. blockade, but with misleading or downright hostile media coverage. By focusing on eight key areas, including human development, internal opposition, and migration, Lamrani shows how the media systematically shapes our understanding of Cuban reality. This book, with a foreword by Eduardo Galeano, provides an alternative view, combining a scholar's eye for complexity with a journalist's hunger for the facts.… | more |
Latin America Confronts the Challenge of Globalization
A Burdensome Inheritance
The American continent was the first region to be integrated into newborn global capitalism and to be shaped into a periphery of the European Atlantic centers, themselves still undergoing formation. That shaping was a process of unparalleled brutality. The English, just as they did in Australia and New Zealand, proceeded immediately to the total genocide of the indigenous population. The Spaniards reduced them to a state of virtual slavery that, despite its catastrophic demographic effects, did not efface the Indian presence. Both, along with the Portuguese and the French, finished shaping the continent with the slave trade. The exploitation of this first periphery of historical capitalism was based on setting up a system of production to export agricultural (sugar, cotton) and mineral products.… Independence, when gained by the local white ruling classes, did not change that setup. Latin America (with today a mere 8.4 percent of world population) and Africa have small populations, relative to East, South, and Southeast Asia, but are endowed with fabulously rich natural resources (in mineral deposits and potentially arable land). For that reason those regions were doomed to remain subject to systematic grand-scale pillage, exclusively for purposes of capital accumulation in the dominant centers—Europe and the United States.… | more |
The U.S. and Cuba during Slavery and Jim Crow
The histories of Cuba and the United States are tightly intertwined and have been for at least two centuries. In Race to Revolution, historian Gerald Horne examines a critical relationship between the two countries by tracing out the typically overlooked interconnections among slavery, Jim Crow, and revolution. Slavery was central to the economic and political trajectories of Cuba and the United States, both in terms of each nation's internal political and economic development and in the interactions between the small Caribbean island and the Colossus of the North. Horne draws a direct link between the black experiences in two very different countries and follows that connection through changing periods of resistance and revolutionary upheaval. … | more |
A Historical and Legal Perspective on the U.S. Blockade

Celia Sánchez and the Cuban Revolution
Celia Sánchez is the missing actor of the Cuban Revolution. Although not as well known in the English-speaking world as Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, Sánchez played a pivotal role in launching the revolution and administering the revolutionary state. The product of ten years of original research, One Day in December draws on interviews with Sánchez's friends, family, and comrades in the rebel army, along with countless letters and documents. This is the extraordinary story of an extraordinary woman who exemplified the very best values of the Cuban Revolution: selfless dedication to the people, courage in the face of grave danger, and the desire to transform society. … | more |
Cuban Urban Agriculture as a Strategy for Food Sovereignty
Celia Sánchez and the Cuban Revolution
Nothing makes me more hopeful than discovering another human being to admire. My wonder at the life of Celia Sánchez, a revolutionary Cuban woman virtually unknown to Americans, has left me almost speechless. In hindsight, loving and admiring her was bound to happen, once I knew her story. Like Frida Kahlo, Zora Neale Hurston, Rosa Luxemburg, Agnes Smedley, Fannie Lou Hamer, Josephine Baker, Harriet Tubman, or Aung San Suu Kyi, Celia Sánchez was that extraordinary expression of life that can, every so often, give humanity a very good name.… | more |
A Promise of Revolution
This book presents a moving and insightful portrait of scholar and revolutionary Walter Rodney through by the words of academics, writers, artists, and political activists who knew him intimately or felt his influence.

Faces of Latin America, 4th Edition (revised)
Widely considered to be the best available introduction in English to the economies, politics, demography, social structures, environment and cultures of Latin America. This new edition is thoroughly updated and covers recent developments in Latin America such as the growing costs of export agriculture, the rise of Brazilian manufacturing, connections between the war on drugs and the war on terror, the social costs of neoliberalism, the Argentinian default, the search for new economic models in Venezuela and elsewhere, the decline in direct U.S. military intervention in the region, growing urbanization, urban poverty and casual employment, outmigration and the importance of family remittances from abroad, rampant environmental destruction, the struggles of indigenous movements, and more.… | more |
His right eye blinked furiously, swollen and red; he continued to rub it…. Louis-Jodel Chamblain, the man sitting across from me, had been a commander of the paramilitary force…known as the Revolutionary Front for the Liberation of Haiti—also known as the Front for the National Liberation and Reconstruction of Haiti, or FLRN…. He was also a cofounder in the mid–1990s of the Front for the Advancement and Progress of Haiti (FRAPH) death squads. According to Human Rights Watch, the FRAPH took part in the killing of at least 4,000 people as well as in thousands of rapes and other acts of torture. Before cofounding the FRAPH, Chamblain had served with the Tonton Macoutes, the infamous paramilitary arm of the Duvalier dictatorship, which according to human rights organizations was responsible for killing tens of thousands of people and victimizing many more.… | more |

Paramilitarism and the Assault on Democracy in Haiti
In this path-breaking book, Jeb Sprague investigates the dangerous world of right-wing paramilitarism in Haiti and its role in undermining the democratic aspirations of the Haitian people. Sprague focuses on the period beginning in 1990 with the rise of Haiti's first democratically elected president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and the right-wing movements that succeeded in driving him from power. Over the ensuing two decades, paramilitary violence was largely directed against the poor and supporters of Aristide's Lavalas movement, taking the lives of thousands of Haitians. Sprague seeks to understand how this occurred, and traces connections between paramilitaries and their elite financial and political backers, in Haiti but also in the United States and the Dominican Republic. … | more |
How the CIA Got Away With Murder
Ratner and Smith have done it again! Who Killed Che? How the CIA Got Away With Murder is their second bombshell book dealing with Che Guevara and the U.S. government's frequent use of illegal and criminal political assassinations and routine whopper lies in its foreign policy, all in the name of "defending freedom"…. In their new Che book these two prominent civil liberties lawyers present forty-four previously classified documents released under the Freedom of Information Act to show—quite meticulously and colorfully, as if in a courtroom drama—how the CIA, in concert with the White House, masterminded the murder of Che and then tried to cover it up.… For some readers this may seem like an old story, since the U.S. government now openly proclaims the legitimacy of assassinating foreign leaders and even U.S. citizens during its hypocritical "war on terrorism."… But as Che himself once said in words that Libya's murdered leader Muammar Qaddafi might have done well to heed, "You cannot trust imperialism, not even a little bit, not in anything." And there, indeed, is the rub.… | more |
Cocaine, Death Squads, and the War on Terror
U.S. Imperialism and Class Struggle in Colombia
Since the late 1990s, the United States has funneled billions of dollars in aid to Colombia, ostensibly to combat the illicit drug trade and State Department-designated terrorist groups. The result has been a spiral of violence that continues to take lives and destabilize Colombian society. This book asks an obvious question: are the official reasons given for the wars on drugs and terror in Colombia plausible, or are there other, deeper factors at work? Scholars Villar and Cottle suggest that the answers lie in a close examination of the cocaine trade, particularly its class dimensions. … | more |
The Paradox of Cuban Agriculture
When Cuba faced the shock of lost trade relations with the Soviet Bloc in the early 1990s, food production initially collapsed due to the loss of imported fertilizers, pesticides, tractors, parts, and petroleum. The situation was so bad that Cuba posted the worst growth in per capita food production in all of Latin America and the Caribbean. But the island rapidly re-oriented its agriculture to depend less on imported synthetic chemical inputs, and became a world-class case of ecological agriculture. This was such a successful turnaround that Cuba rebounded to show the best food production performance in Latin America and the Caribbean over the following period, a remarkable annual growth rate of 4.2 percent per capita from 1996 through 2005, a period in which the regional average was 0 percent.… | more |
Do the United States and Mexico Really Want the Drug War To Succeed?
Until late in the twentieth century heroin and cocaine addiction in Mexico was not considered a major problem…. [But today] both the governments of Mexico and the United States have demonstrated a need to justify military actions and to portray the "War on Drugs" as a battle between good and evil with no gray areas in between. To make the rhetoric effective it has been necessary to villainize the perpetrators of the "evil" and to ignore the dominant reasons that the evil exists: unabated drug consumption in the United States…. As long as the assassinations, beheadings, cateos, and the majority of the corruption of government official remain south of the border the United States can maintain its pro-military stance, send money and arms to Mexico's conservative government, and focus on more demanding issues. Mexico, in contrast, rejecting any form of legalization, remains bound to its U.S.-appeasing commitment to continue a bloody confrontation that seems to have no end.… | more |
An Anthology
José Carlos Mariátegui is one of Latin America's most profound but overlooked thinkers. A self-taught journalist, social scientist, and activist from Peru, he was the first to emphasize that those fighting for the revolutionary transformation of society must adapt classical Marxist theory to the particular conditions of Latin American. He also stressed that indigenous peoples must take an active, if not leading, role in any revolutionary struggle.… | more |
Cuba has found oil in its part of the Gulf of Mexico and is about to start drilling. Even if the results are moderate, Cuba will become energy independent and eventually a net exporter. This will have an incalculable impact on its economy, and will send the U.S. sanctions policy into the dustbin of imperial miscalculations. This has brought out Miami's congressional assault team led by the fanatical Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, who essentially wants to criminalize drilling in Cuba's section of the Gulf. But caught between a commitment to maintaining the embargo and an understanding of the necessity of Cuba cooperation lest there be another BP-style disaster, the Obama administration has remained largely passive. Will Cuban oil help change the balance of power in the Americas in the near future?… | more |

I wondered how the solitude would go. I cant imagine the countless hours alone like that, day after day after day, month after month after month.
Dont get me wrong, i love solo rides as much as the next guy, but never thought it would get that lonely.
So the question is, do you wish you had found someone else to travel the whole journey with?
And whats with the shitty food??? Damn, thats disapointing. I wouldnt have guessed it to be so bad there. Wicked pisser. I can see why your disgusted with this part of the ride now. All alone, retarded drivers, and shitty food and a wife 6000 miles away so no whamma bamma with momma.
I for one appreciate this live ride report. Its like i know you, but dont. I look forward to reading it daily. I hope you carry on and your spirits lift soon
Ride safe!

[QUOTE=Smithee;20553110]From what I've seen of Radioman's posting, it looks like the good beef is in Argentina. I suspect you'd find the food to be an improvement there. I post this pic Radioman posted from Bariloche to encourage you there are better times ahead.
Hopefully you're headed that way eventually. Southern Argentina looks very similar to the Pacific Northwest.
How has the bike been performing? Have you felt the need to rejet, or does the constant velocity carb handle the altitude variations ok?[/QUOTE ]
Now that looks like something to eat! Wow! Nothing even remotely similar to that here. Nothing! Wow mashed potato and red tomatoes, what a concept!
I love Radioman's ride report and used to read it all the time. I have fallen way behind in reading his report because of the time I'm spending on mine now, but I'll catch up one day.
The bike's OK. I notice the power drop off above 10,000ft a bit, but now that I'm aware of it. I take extra care in passing at high elevations. It works fine. Just a bit slower.

The girls at the front desk at the Hotel in Paracas have very little English but they really tried to talk to me and we struggled through. My room did not have a towel and after some charades they got me a towel and then wanted to know the Inglese word. They taught me the Spanish word which sounds something like toya. That stuff is a challenge and I find it fun.
Nights like this kinda suck. I don't want to leave the hotel because of the large crowd outside. It makes for a long night waiting for the music to stop.
I think Jana and Malene and Lawrence and Niko must be on an overnight bus to Cusco because I've not heard from them since Malene emailed yesterday and said we'll see you in Cusco. I sent them some emails so they will know where I am when they get internet again.
I think the people that like SA food eat mostly fish. I can't stand seafood of any description. Never liked it and never will. Just the smell of a piece of Salmon in a restaurant that someone else is eating is enough to put me off my meal. I live in the "Lobster Capital of the World" and there is not enough money in the World to pay me to eat a Lobster. Not in this lifetime..
But seriously how hard is it to make a hamburger that's not ground gristle? I just don't get it.

You certainly seem a bit "down in the dumps". Hopefully, Argentina can pull you out of your slump.
I have to ask, and I have refrained from doing so because I didn't want to be offensive, but what did you expect the food to be like while you were travelling? There seems to be some great disappointment at the local fare. Personally, when I travelled a lot for work, I learned to try lots of new things to immerse myself in the local culture, and got to enjoy that part. My wife can certainly attest that stepping outside my comfort zone was NOT something I was akin to do very often, and now that I learned HOW to, travelling is certainly enriched.
I've been reading your RR with great interest because you are a fellow Maritimer, and having hosted Radioman last year who took a very similar route to yours and has had spectacular experiences, it almost seems from my perspective that you're not having much fun - and if that's not the case, I'll certainly read from the beginning again to see what I missed.
Stay safe, have fun and experience the culture! You're able to ride the trip I can only dream about right now!

I don't know what to say about what i expected in the way of food. I don't like anything fancy, in fact when I lived in Vancouver I found it hard to eat there too at the "better" restaurants, way too much Cilantro, Fish, mushroom sauces, vimagrette dressings, brussell sprouts for my liking and for my taste. I just like plain meat and potatoes and I love chicken..I never expected to be so hard to get a white piece of chicken. How can all the chicken be greasy and dark? What do they do with the rest? Why are hamburgeusas ground gristle instead of meat? Why does Carne Asada always come out like shoe leather? Seriously you could get a more tender cut at Hartt Shoes in Fredericton. I had a piece in northern Colombia you couldn't cut with a torch let alone chew. I tried the entire time we were at the table and could not eat a single bite. I just couldn't chew it. My Chicago friend Dylan had the same thing, same result. We joked that since we couldn't even change the shape of it they will likely sell it again after we leave. i guess I;m just surprised at the shockingly poor food whether it's the preparation or the raw material in general it is awful. Ground gristle is not something you can learn to like.
I have had lots of fun on this trip. Met excellent people, ridden outstanding roads, seen magnificent scenery,been to great beaches etc., but to imagine a trip like this can be all fun is unrealistic. Tonight I've waited for three hours to go to bed. I have a very long day tomorrow, I had a very trying day today. that's not fun. As I type this someone is screaming into a speaker system that would deafen KISS. it's 12:13 I hope it stops soon.
I have authors of other ride reports tell me they wished they had been more honest about their reporting. There is nothing fun about standing around for four and a half hours at a Central American border in steaming tropical heat. Nothing. Very few writers tell you that. They don't even mention it.
I can't think of a single Ride Report that mentions the thousand or more miles of bleak desert you cross in Peru just to get to the mountains. Except for in the book "Lois on the Loose" Limas insane traffic is barely mentioned. Lois does and outstanding job of telling how it is almost suicidal to ride there. I don't think I even thought to mention the car that was so close to me he hit my foot as i put it down to stop. drivers here hate it if you pass them. I passed a guy in a small town today, next, I'm trying to pass a truck and I relaize the a-hole I just passed is now right beside me. Shring the lane with me about 2mm's from my sadlle bags, right beside me while Im looking around the truck. I mean WTF? So irresponsibly dangerous. he's toying with my life? Cause he didn't want me to pass him? Moronic driving! Scary, but not fun.
I don't remember reading one report that mentions how some of Colombia's best roads are absolutely plugged solid with heavy trucks and buses. there seem to be more trucks in Colombia than in the entire USA. that is what I have encountered. That's what i write. It is not always fun and sometimes its downright depressing.
I just try to tell it like I see it. With the exception of the great time I had in Lima, Peru has been very taxing. I'm constantly hungry, the riding sucks out loud. boring roads, intense heat and very windy and bleak scenery and absolutely insane drivers.
I have had absolutely maddening trouble with bank and credit cards. Enough to piss off the Good Humor Man. I don't remember anyone else warning about that. I write about it because I want other riders that follow to avoid that experience.
It may be because I write almost daily that the frustrations of each day are fresh in my mind but what I write is true to the day's experience. SA can be a very frustrating place, especially when you are by yourself and don't speak the language.
I can think of rides that would be easier and more fun but I still recommend this ride. Some parts are excellent, some are decidedly anything but.

There is a consolation to all your current 'trials and frustrations' to look forward too - "its like bumping your head against the wall - it great when you stop!" Soon you will be through it all and into something refreshingly new!

keep going Kedgi, Peru will fade away.
one near miss in a day sets me off for a long time..combine that with the heat and desert and there is good reason to be a little pissed at the current situation...but it will change for the better

You have my complete support...and sympathy. I know exactly where you are coming from and love your passion and honesty. If I had been with you I prolly would have packed it in by now. Some people don't understand that as we get on into the 'bucket list' side of our lives most of us can say we have been thru the shyte before. So why the Hell go thru it again. At least in my case.
But you are gettin thru it, brother. Hang in there. Argentina awaits.

Hey Dwight.
Add me to the list of those supporting you. Right now I have no plans of even going to get the mail in this miserable cold snap here. I too deteste the cold and have plans to retire south soon. Trying to look at the bright side, maybe you need to show them how to prepare a good meal. Say...a small restaurant catering to traveller's stomachs? Turn lemons into lemonade? A place near the beach where the english speaking travellers will seek you out. "Dwight's Done Right Diner" A secure place to park a bike and relax. Maybe someone's trying to tell you something. You've discovered a void. Take a deep breath. Vancouver is awesome I agree, but how long will your nest egg last there vs where you are now (SA)? As I said to my girl last fall while we were touring NS on our GS's and got lost near Larry's River south of Guysborough (Zumo quit!) , low on fuel and stressed..."Who's going to feel sorry for you?" Meaning which one of your friends wouldn't trade places with you right now? Three weeks off, touring Canada at will on a motorcycle. Poor Baby. Dwight's travelling South America on a motorcycle with his wife's blessing and can't get a good bite to eat? All said with good intent my friend.
I'm like you in a lot of ways. Live in the moment. Your RR will make you wish you were still there when reading it years later.....

If its any consolation Kedgi, the windchill is forecast to be between -35C and -40C for all of New Brunswick tomorrow. I predict your current feelings are temporary. Remember, it has been a long trip and you have not had much of a break recently. Just look at the numbers of folks who are following your report! You are a tremendous inspiration to us, even when we know in our heart of hearts, that we will not be able to take such a trip. Can't wait to meet you when you get back and hear some stories.

I'm rockin' this summer do-nothing schedule of mine…that's what summer's for right? Uh-huh. I visited Home Depot and took home a handful of paint chips for an art project (that we didn't do…yet).
I did a little Shop-hopping with a friend (hi Lauren!)…and bought just a few things. Isn't that display cute? This is Esther's Fabrics on Bainbridge Island, WA.
I stayed up way too late and basted and quilted this top I made almost exactly one year ago.
This little girl had her one year shots today (yes, 4 months late). I procrastinated that appointment for as long as possible…ouch!
While organizing the tubs
of crap in the basement I found this quilt. It was my second or third quilt, before I knew that free motion quilting was even possible on my own machine, and before I took pictures of my quilts.
Have a great weekend!

Part Eighteen
-------- The Meeting --------
The Chamber was full, all heads of departments were seated around the table with folders stacked in front of them.
"Gentlemen so glad to see you all. Now down to business..."
The table grew silent.
"Mr. Dibbler?"
Dibbler stood and delivered His report on the progress of the Rocket. It was ready to go, all three parts filled and stacked in the Tower as required.
Leonard stood and reported that the Telescope was ready to go, all parts assembles and the assembly was stacked atop the rocket in the Tower.
"Mr. Stibbons?"
Ponder stood.
Ponder shuffled the stack of papers on the table in front of Him.
"Mr. Stibbons.........?"
"Emmmm.......... has run off with the Feegles." Said Ponder.
"He has what?" Said Vetinari.
"Yes they went out on a pre launch bender and not returned. But I found a note pined to the controls of the capsule. Would you like me to read it?"
"You may as well Mr. Stibbons."
Ponder read the note.
"Dear ponder Sir, thank you for giving Me a life... I think of you as a Father and since meeting the friendly little Blue men and have being shown what it is to live I have made the decision to go and live life. I may be ready to be sent into the heavens one day but not yet. Yours with love Emmmm. PS This means I have run a way with the Blue Men. Sir!"
Vetinari glared at Stibbons who turned a shade of Red.
"Here let me see that!" Said the Arch Chancellor extending His hand. The note flew from Ponders hand to Ridcully.
Ridcully placed His glasses on His nose, the reflection of the note in them.
Ponder had a moment of clarity.....
"But I have another plan." He said.
"Well?" Said Vetinari.
"I would suggest that we affix a piece of the broken Omniscope to the eye piece of the Telescope, we need not Imp the device then. The weight saved could be used for extra manoeuvring propellant."
"That is a good idea but how could we control the direction the Telescope will point?" Asked Leonard.
"Magic!" Said Stibbons.
"Magic? How young Man." Said Ridcully.
"You just used Magic to snatch the note from my hand Sir. But what if we set up another Shred of the Broken Omniscope to view the control panel on the Scope.... we could turn the Knobs by magic."
Vetinari looked at Ridcully.... "Can it be done over such a distance?"
"Don't see why not, but it would take quite a few Wizards to move the controls. One would not be enough. If we have say Twenty or so watching the control and all working together it could work." Said Ridcully.
"We could set up banks of monitors in rows, each with a section of the broken Omniscope in it and a Wizard at each station. We could call it The Mission Control Centre........ We have a few spare rooms at the University that would do." Stibbons interjected.
"And I could be Flight Director in overall charge of the thing!" Said Ridcully, head visibly swelling with pride.
"Glad that is settled then." Said Vetinari.
"Well done Stibbons, pulled the fat out of the Fire yet again, although it was a fire of your own making young Man." Whispered Ridcully.
"We are ready then... Gentlemen will Two days be long enough for you to set up the Control Centre? Yes..... Good. We launch in Two days....... meeting over." Said Vetinari.

- Great for winter! Review by Jennifer
Price Value Quality
My skin gets very dry and flaky during the winter. This product helps keep my skin from drying out. I use this every night after cleansing with the purifying gel cleanser. I then apply the dual advantage cream to any blemishes I may have then apply the Vita E cream.

- It works!!! Review by Janie
Price Value Quality
If you have dry skin this is the product you need. I am 65 and have dry skin. I now use this every morning before applying the Satin II base and it keeps my skin moisturized all day. It is a little thick so don't use too much. I am very satisfied with this product.

- so far, so good Review by Bea
Quality Value Price
I switched to this moisturizer at the beginning of the month and so far I have been really pleased. The formula is a good thickness, but not greasy/oily and I feel like it absorbs into the skin nicely. I have pretty normal skin except in the winter it seems to dry out really quickly. I haven't had the excessive drying with this moisturizer that I was starting to get with my other, lighter one. Nice work glo.

oh theres space for 1 maybe 2 120mm fans along the top, just not enough space for the h80 ones (as theres 2 and the radiator)
So I'll try that, fans are only cheap after all.. Thank you for your help!
Where do the fans plug into btw? I take it that varies between each motherboard?
Posted 06 February 2013 - 18:54
Excellent, I've ordered the fans and I'll let you know how it goes. I appreciate your help!
Posted 16 February 2013 - 14:31
Posted 17 February 2013 - 00:37
Hi Boz,
I put 1 fan on the top as you said, pulling air out. And ordered 2 of the fans you said and put one on the front of the case (replacing the stock one) and one on the bottom.
My temps appear to be around the same. I'm thinking of swapping out the stock h80 fans now, as not only are they quite loud but don't seem to be doing their job that well.
Are there any particular fans you'd recommend, or would the ones you said before be suitable for the radiator too?
(btw would epu power saving mode have any effect on temperatures?)

First time doing any overclocking so i'm pretty much a novice when it comes to it, been meaning to get into it, learn about it but never did. Today i did it via the bios and first attempt i got my dual core 3ghz to 3.3ghz. Pc seemed to be faster, games loaded up abit more faster too. Temp for my cpu was still around the 37c mark, popped to 40c when playing a game. I tried to overclock to 3.67GHZ but that crashed my pc at start up. So 3.4GHZ is my limit.
My question is, 2 programs, but both give me different readings.
See from picture.
On cpu-z it says 3.398ghz (so nearly 3.4ghz) But AIDA64 says CPU Clock is 2.2GHZ unless i'm seeing something, even windows say 3.4ghz
Posted 01 April 2013 - 13:18
Aida can shows true values if You have SpeedStep enabled, so Your CPU drop clock when idle, if You have WinRAR or 7-zip use test mode to see if Your CPU rise when under load. Latest CPU-z always shows highest clock speed.
About Your OC, did You have set manual vcore or it is on auto, if on aute then cpu didn't have enough vcore on start
Posted 01 April 2013 - 13:19
SpeedStep - Automatically lowers the multiplier from its max. (9x for the E6850) to 6x when the machine is idle. The result is less power consumption and heat production. It goes back up to 9x when you start to get a CPU load. This is a power savings option.
Posted 01 April 2013 - 13:24
Look at the multiplier value Orange, in CpuZ you`ll notice that it`s at x9 whereas in Aida it`s at x6. Basically this
I personally don`t like going to close to the limit. For the performance gain i don`t think it`s worth it.
Good luck

Five US publishers are being threatened with legal action over the way they set prices for electronic books, reports the Wall Street Journal.
The US Department of Justice (DoJ) said the five had conspired to raise the prices of ebooks.
Also included in the legal threat is electronics firm Apple because of its role in the way ebooks are priced.
The threat comes as the publishers negotiate with the DoJ about the pricing model for electronic books.
The five publishers are; Simon and Schuster, Hachette, the US arm of Penguin, Macmillan and HarperCollins Inc.
