Buy it from
- Buy the CD
- William Byrd, Robert White, Robert Parsons
- Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang (SACD - Plays on all CD players)
- Philip Cave
- Linn Records
- 2012
The sober packaging of this disc gives little indication of the pleasure within. Pass it over at your peril. The small vocal group Magnificat, and its founder/director Philip Cave, explore Latin music from Tudor England mainly from the 1560s and 70s by Parsons, White and Byrd found in the Dow collection of manuscripts in the library of Christ Church, Oxford. An excellent booklet essay guides us through the changing fortunes of Latin texts in newly Protestant England, as well as questions of performance practice and pitch. But the long lines of intertwining and unfolding polyphony, performed with warmth and purity, is the reason to buy this inspirational CD.

Laid back, but exciting - lookin to have some laughs and keep it interesting.
have you gone to a show lately? I have gone to a rock concert, two jazz shows and a movie once in the past 3 weeks. I like to get out there and find interesting things to do, but I am extremely laid back. That is not saying lazy, but being a creature of habit I have to shake it up a bit and break out every once in a while. But to be content I just need to be able to have bit of excitement, a bit of relaxation and definitely need to laugh...which is the healthiest thing you can do for yourself, i believe. I am up for anything - sports, the arts (which I work in), music, partying, travelling, etc. If we put our minds to it we can keep it interesting!!!

I like to go to neighborhood spots to eat and to go out to the bars. I find once in while to splurge or hit other areas of the city is a must evry once in while - but you got to have your good old stand-by spots - U know what to expect...
food is probably a good steak or Italian. when it is raining definitely lounging with a movie or channel surfing. I have one of the broadest musical tastes everything from jazz to techno to Rock ans beyond, a big passion of mine is the fine arts.
I love to go out on the town, dinner, drinks, live music or whatever. As much fun as all that is it also great to just lounge out on the couch at home - sometimes a movie at home is more than one in theater when in the right mood.
I read No Country for Old Men and I Am Legend. I enjoy a good read. I'll give any genre, fiction or non a shot

Property insurance reform: What these Collier businesses say
NAPLES - SB 408 – Property insurance – An omnibus bill intended to create a more competitive private insurance marketplace. The bill would eliminate the requirement that insurance companies offer sinkhole coverage, increase insurance company surplus requirements, and shorten the window for people to bring claims.
Albert Doria, president of Gulf Coast Insurance, an independent insurer based in Naples, describes SB 408 as a "good solid bill for everybody."
He said it will benefit consumers and insurance companies alike.
"It's a great bill and it will attract more carriers to the state, or at least keep the current carriers in the state continuing to write policies," he said.
By requiring residential property insurers to boost the reserves they have on hand to pay claims, the bill should "help attract carriers that will hopefully be around for the long term," he said.
"Unfortunately, over the last few years, we have had several carriers that have started up and gone out of business," Doria said. "I think part of the reason is the bar has been set too low."
With the bar set too low, "it ends up costing everybody," he said.

* * * * *
Brian Rist, president of Storm Smart Industries, a manufacturer and installer of hurricane shutters in Fort Myers, opposes the insurance reform bill proposed by Naples GOP Sen. Garrett Richter.
Rist's biggest concern is that it would get rid of the discounts now given to property owners that harden their homes and businesses to better protect themselves against storms, including hurricanes.
"It only makes sense. If you lower your risk, you should lower your cost," Rist said.
He said if property owners don't get the discounts, it would just be "one less reason to buy our products."
He understands the need to attract more insurers to Florida and to reduce the number of policies carried by the state-run Citizens Insurance, but he's concerned the bill will just push rates higher.
"I think there is a lot of wiggle room for the insurance company not to pay claims under this bill," Rist said. "In Southwest Florida, we don't worry about sinkholes, but it appears like that becomes an uninsurable event."
He said the bill, like most, is difficult to read and understand. Everybody, he said, seems to have a different understanding of it.
"It's very wordy," he said. "There are over 3,000 lines in the bill."

New artworks on the Guruve Gallery from private collectors
Exciting new additions to our 'collectors' gallery include:

A new breed of African art collectors emerges
A strong domestic network of local collectors is essential for the health and stability of the contemporary African art market - it's no good for 'tribal' and current objets d'art to fly into private collections outside the continent. This fascinating article in The Art Newspaper identifies a nascent trend among wealthy African patrons of the arts that we hope gathers momentum!
Frank McEwen bequest now online
Images of the sculptures bequested by Frank McEwen, OBE, to the British Museum are now online. The collection includes early works by some of the most significant artists in the Shona sculpture art movement, and we're sure our collectors will find them fascinating.
Frank McEwen, OBE was the influential first curator of the National Gallery in Salisbury, Rhodesia (1957-1973). He encouraged local artists and brought their work to a worldwide audience, with ground-breaking exhibitions at Musée Rodin and the ICA amongst others. He retired in 1973, due to ill-health caused by continued resistance to his work from his white peers.
Chapungu goes into liquidation
In a very sad day for the Zimbabwean sculpture movement, the Daily News announced on 5 Nov 2012 that Chapungu, Harare's foremost gallery of Shona sculpture, has gone into liquidation.
This famous gallery, a well-known tourist destination and organiser of many prestigious international exhibitions, has been struggling financially for many years and even the return of its owner, Roy Guthrie, from the USA has not been enough to turn things around.
This leaves Harare without a single major gallery specialising in indigenous stone sculpture. The art movement needs a visionary promoter; otherwise the risk is of a terminal decline.

Originally written on The Colts Authority | Last updated 3/19/12
JACKSONVILLE, FL - DECEMBER 17: Joseph Addai #29 of the Indianapolis Colts looks on against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium on December 17, 2009 in Jacksonville, Florida. (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
The Colts have purged their roster of some of the all time greats, with more farewells in the works. This is the first of a recurring series saying farewell to Colts greats. Portions of this essay originally appeared in Blue Blue: Tales of Glory of the Indianapolis Colts. Joseph Addai's only flaw is that he has had the misfortune of following three Hall of Fame running backs in Indianapolis. The Colts' 2006 first round pick started his career with a bang. His rookie season, he became the first back to run for 1,000 yards in a season despite not starting a game. He was a huge factor in the playoffs, scoring the game winning touchdown against the Patriots and combining for 150 yards rushing and receiving in the Super Bowl. He followed up his stellar rookie year with strong season in 2007. He again rushed for over 1,000 yards, scored 15 touchdowns, and was selected to the Pro Bowlfor the first time. Unfortunately for Addai, the Colts began to suffer injuries and retirements on...

The sun is setting on the negative reputation of Altona.
When former prime minister John Howard made Kirribilli House in Sydney his official residence rather than the Lodge in Canberra, his decision was met with surprise at the break in tradition, rather than any debate about which would be the better location. But amusement was probably the main reaction to Julia Gillard's announcement that she would remain in her modest Altona house until re-elected as prime minister.
The western suburb of Altona, it seems, is not thought to be as prestigious as Kirribilli, on Sydney's north shore. Whereas visitors to Kirribilli enjoy a vista of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House, Altona's welcoming landmark is the Mobil refinery.
But long-time resident and former Hobsons Bay mayor Leigh Hardinge (the current mayor declined to speak to The Age) says the PM's decision is further evidence that the rest of Melbourne is mistaken in writing Altona off as an industrial wasteland.
Not that he is complaining; Mr Hardinge says locals have been pleased that the attractions of the bayside suburb have been kept a secret. "It suited us fine. A lot of people thought we lived amongst the factories ... well, of course, that's just not true."
But Mr Hardinge says the western-suburb stigma is fading, with heavy industry moving out of the area or offshore as ageing factories need updating and companies weigh up the alternatives of refurbishing an outdated facility versus creating a new, modern one in a brown or green-acre site.
"And I think, probably, when they do their sums, that [moving] is probably the better option, rather than trying to set up in what's now quite a heavy residential area."
Mr Hardinge predicts Altona will evolve in much the same way as Port Melbourne, now a darling of the inner-city set. "Thirty years ago, Port Melbourne was an industrial backwater no one even wanted to know about. So it must come; I can see Altona going the same way."
With rising house prices already forcing one of his children to move further out, Mr Hardinge says the evolution has already begun.
"In the last eight to 10 years, it's just taken off like a rocket because people have discovered the place. Now, I am expecting a similar thing with all the publicity of Julia becoming prime minister."
Paul Lindemann, the director of Sweeney Estate Agents' Altona office, is not convinced the "Julia" factor will have a significant impact on property prices, although he admits that hasn't stopped him alerting prospective buyers about the PM's presence in the 'hood.
"I went to an auction the other day where I mentioned, 'Have a cup of tea with Julia. She's gonna be your neighbour. Is that one or two sugars, Julia?' I don't think I'd buy in a suburb just due to the fact that the prime minister lives there but people do talk about it quite a bit, 'the prime minister lives in Altona blah blah blah', and we do see her. She has coffee and eats around here. It did sort of put Altona on the map."
And if that encourages people to visit for the first time, Mr Lindemann is convinced they will revise any negative images they may hold of a bleak, working-class suburb.
Altona's seafront offers more than three kilometres of beach, water views to rival Williamstown and extensive sport and recreational facilities. Mr Lindemann says the refinery is not an issue for buyers, with owners benefiting from lower council rates because of it. "And Williamstown is just as close to the refinery as Altona."
Three-bedroom brick veneer houses built in the 1960s and '70s are the predominant housing stock in Altona, with some on substantial blocks of up to 1000 square metres. Those near the water can attract prices of $1.2 million. In the "modest" western part of town, around the corner from the PM, $660,000 can buy a house.
Mr Lindemann, who was born and bred in Altona, says there has been little turnover in the suburb, with many dwellings staying within families. However, he says generational change has started to become evident as elderly residents begin to downsize and look to buy a place with en suites and other "luxuries" that are not the norm in original Altona properties. Developers are also moving in to take advantage of the large block sizes, with more townhouses being built and land being subdivided.
"So, I think within probably the next 10 years, we will see a very, very big demographic change. I think we will get the families in here because of the blocks. They're good family blocks where you can have the backyard and the trampoline and things like that.
"I think Altona is really starting to climb the ladder as a desirable location. It still is the west. I think the infrastructure probably lacks a little bit in terms of the cosmopolitan cafes and so forth but then some people like that.
"It is a quiet suburb, yet we're very close to the city."
Altona's median house price actually fell 6.4 per cent for the June quarter during which Ms Gillard became PM, going against the overall Melbourne rise of 8.5 per cent.
However, buyer's advocate Jason Wier, owner of Real Estate Angel, says the next quarter's figures will show any "Julia" impact, as there is always a lag with the statistics. Mr Wier says publicity about the PM living in Altona will be good for the suburb's "brand" but, regardless, the area offers good opportunities for investors or owner-occupiers.
Mr Lindemann says buyers would pay twice as much for a property on the other side of the city that had the same proximity to the city centre and lifestyle benefits as Altona, with its bayside location, railway line, established infrastructure and village-type atmosphere.
"The June 2010 median house price was $585,000 — up from $348,000 in 2005 — and the townhouses have gone from $235,000, in 2005, to $430,000, so they've actually improved very well in price also, and that is the sign of the change of the demographic of the buyer as well."
Mr Wier says prices rise when older residents start selling and younger people come in and begin to renovate, giving buyers confidence that the area is filled with people who care about their surrounds.
However, Mr Lindemann says Altona is unlikely to ever enjoy the prices of its neighbour Williamstown, which has benefited from having a marina that attracts the boat set. "If you can afford boats, you've got more money."
When Ms Gillard became PM in June this year, Lord Mayor Robert Doyle led the call for the establishment of an official residence for the PM in Melbourne, in line with Sydney's Kirribilli House.
Locations touted included South Yarra, East Melbourne, Malvern and the city centre. Unfortunately, a spokesperson for Mr Doyle says he is overseas and could not be contacted to comment on whether Altona should be considered.

David Carradine was found dead in his hotel room in Bankok. It is still a big mystery as to what really happened to the late actor.
The maid found Carradine in his hotel room closet in the nude with a yellow rope tied around his neck.
Police initially called it a suspected suicide but his manager isn't believing it.
"I can tell you 100 percent that he would have never committed suicide," his manager told People Magazine.
"He was too full of life....We are not saying it's an accidental death because we don't know," says Smith. "Right now we are just letting everyone know that it's under investigation and we'll see ... I just know he didn't do this to himself."
Meanwhile, the chief police on the case is saying that he feels that the actor did commit suicide, but it is suspicious. Maybe that's why there are silly rumors going around that say he died of an orgasm. Apparently, his heart failed while he was having an orgasm. Why would he have an orgasm in the closet?
The autopsy is set to be released in 2 days.

In the middle of our Balanced Forces unit, we do a couple of experiments to come up with equations for some of the types of forces we've been talking about while drawing qualitative free body diagrams.

The stage is set. We started building the energy transfer model (ETM), and we've talked about the flavors of energy. We are ready for a new representation to help us start thinking about energy storage in a system. In a day or two, we'll be using energy bar charts, but first, we'll get used to … Continue reading

So. Josh* took my Honors Physics exam review activity and expanded it into something bigger and better. As I was reading his post, though, I started thinking about my regular physics classes.

I know you've been there. Stuck in the doldrums of kinematics. "It's against the law to think in the doldrums!" So there you are. Stuck in description-land.

This thread has been dead for a while now, and since it's for my education and I don't know anything about her work, I'll even let YOU pick the image you discuss. Thanks.
I really like the ones with animals in her Landmarks Gallery because they are humerous and the one I chose, I like because of the lines of the fences and gracefullness of the dog. It's called Leaping Lurcher
There are so many I like. This is a very well known one, and justifiably.
What I like most about her landscapes is the way she captures the 'spirit' of the land, and the sense of it's ancient history. I like her other documentary and portrait work too - simple and effective. Lots of work available on the website.
I first became aware of her work after seeing a portfolio presented in Lenswork a couple of years ago. I then found her book, The Edge of the Land at a used bookstore and became a fan.
She had a great interest in showing the interface between man and nature, especially the encroachment of developers on rural lands. In that regard a protion of her later work is similar to Robert Adams. The difference between the two is Adams hits you over the head with mans impact on nature, where as Godwin emphasizes the beauty that will soon be gone, only showing a hint of what is to come.
Interesting way to put it, Jim.
Jim & Cate have shown some insite into Fay's work.
Like many British landscape photographers influences are drawn from photographers like Caponigro, Minor White, John Blake more etc. Many influential photographers began gaving workshops at the Photographers Place, run by Paul Hill in Derbyshire.
Fay Godwin attended one such workshop herself retrning later to run workshops there (and elsewhere) herself.
Somewhere around 1990 I had the privelige to attend one of her workshops, and spent 5 days and she was a fascinating person
I've seen a two exhibitions of original prints and this is one that really grabbed me in the flesh so to speak. Doesn't look like much on the monitor bu the print jumped off the wall. The long line of sheep all staring intently at the camera was both humourous and captivating.
Half your luck Ian!
Ian, would you care to comment on her working habits? The formats in these pictures vary from 2:3 to square, so I presume that she used 35mm and Rollei or Hassel. Did she work from a tripod or always hand-held? Did she do her own printing, or have assistants or professional printers? Etc? Thanks.
As others have remarked, FG's outstanding quality was the way she seemed to be in tune with the British landscape. Her work did not appear to have made her rich, at the drop of a hat she would recite a catalog of woes describing how her work had been mishandled by various galleries and agents. I was surprised and gently tried to suggest she should find a better agent who could maximise the income from her considerable archive (which she did in at least one memorable instance, when file shots of sheep were used in an ad campaign by the Wool Marketing Board, if memory serves me correctly).
By 1998 her knees would no longer allow her to undertake lengthy walks, she turned to abstract color work, eventually published in "Glassworks and Secret Lives" - she was not able to get a publishing deal on this, had to self-publish and mail out every copy herself!
Bill, I too was fortunate enough to spend a week with Fay at a workshop at Duckspool, whatever became of those by the way anyone, as far as I can recall she pretty much used whatever got the job done.
Her latter colour work of closeups of vegetation were hand held 35mm, I'm pretty sure.
For many years Peter Cattrell was her B&W printer. He is a landscape photographer here in the UK, he is a contemporary of Micheal Kenna's, he teaches at the LCP among other gigs and has done a lot of work on the first world war battle fields particularly in france.
Mind you if you got off on the wrong foot with her you could be in for a rocky workshop as one guy found out, but that's a nother story
her work is fab, both B&W and Colour

The Walking Dead
When Does The Walking Dead Season 5 Premiere?
UPDATE (10/8/14): During The Walking Dead 2014 San Diego Comic Con Panel on July 25, it was announced that Season 5 will premiere on October 12 at 9 p.m. ET. Get excited, people!
We have plenty of reasons to be excited for The Walking Dead Season 5 premiere, and let's not forget that the show is part of Viggle's #FinallyFall October Challenge! When you check into 4 out of 6 shows included in the Challenge, you'll receive 3K Viggle points, plus an automatic entry to win a free full season download of whichever show you want from the Viggle Store.
Original Story: The long wait is always painful, but it's here again. The Walking Dead Season 4 ended Sunday, March 30 with the season finale, "A," and now it's radio silence until the October 2014 premiere of Season 5.
Thankfully, there's already some good S5 intel out there, and there should be more filming updates and Comic-Con appearances over the summer to feed our TWD addictions, but it won't be the same until we see new footage. When will Season 5 premiere? Season 4's official start date was revealed during Comic Con in July of last year, so that may be around when we hear about Season 5 too, but there are only four Sundays in October, so it's going to be one of them.
Seasons 1, 2, 3, and 4 all premiered in October, and AMC is sticking with the same undead timeframe for Season 5. TWD Season 1 premiered on Halloween 2010. Season 2 kicked off on October 16, 2011. Season 3 premiered on October 14, 2012. Season 4 premiered on Sunday, October 13. No one is forcing us to throw down a Season 5 premiere guess, but we'll go with Sunday, October 12, 2014. Circle the date now! And then cross it out and circle October 19 if they decide to switch gears and go for the third Sunday in pumpkin month.
You never know what AMC and the producers may decide to do differently in Season 5, but we figure if it ain't broke, don't mess with it — and the only thing "broke" about the 16-episode mid-October to late-March set-up of TWD is that we have to wait so long between seasons and during that awful midseason finale break.
Don't forget, though — next year should be a bit different since the TWD spin-off is scheduled to premiere sometime in 2015, which means it will be timed either with the second half of Season 5 or the first half of Season 6. Or maybe the zombie gods will hear us and schedule the spin-off to air during the summer when there's no TWD content.
Here's a schedule of potential filming and content dates for the rest of 2014, based on what they did last year. We'll get through the sad, empty wasteland together!
The Walking Dead Season 5 premieres in October on AMC.

Impossible is I'm Possible.
I am secure and happy with myself, but.... life is meant for two! I enjoy travel (especially active travel but also sightseeing, cultural, and just beach travel sometimes), working out/weights, exercise (yoga etc.), outdoors (jogging, biking, hiking/trekking, camping, lake activities), team sports, golf, movies, comedy clubs, theater (love the live element of a good play), live music (especially acoustic), museums, and finding new places to experience with a special person (restaurants, cities, etc). I'll also name cooking together and dancing after dinner even if it's just the two of us. And just the occasional get together with friends. I really like a woman who is confident and successful in her way that is intelligent and enjoys an intellectual conversation, but also likes to laugh and be a bit of a kid at times. Has that kind of passion. And someone who is quick witted and focused. I'm relationship oriented and looking for something long-term, but it has to be right and start with a friendship. I?m quite open to the idea of building a family with the right person. I'm easy going and casual about looking though. If I just get a few new friends out of it, that's great. ****** looking for a woman who is ****** LOCAL -strong, confident, intelligent, successful -outgoing -has style -takes care of herself -likes maybe not all but several of my interests -has her own life but wants to share hers and experience mine Thank you for reading my profile!

We provide objectives for our students and preceptors for all of our core rotations. Below you will find a list of the objectives by specialty to help in precepting GVSU PAS Students.
Our program is divided into two sections the didactic (PA-S1) and the clinical (PA-S2). As a student progresses through these stages of education so does the expectations that our Program sets for them. Below you will find general information as to what is expected of a PA-S1 and PA-S2 level student. It describes general responsibilities and educational objectives we set in place for students such as case presentations, formulating a differential diagnosis and therapeutic intervention.
The GVSU Physician Assistant Studies students undergo extension health screening and hospital training for addressing compliance issues with state and federal guidelines. The training and screening include HIPAA certification, OSHA training, immunization verification to include Hepatitis B, current annual TB skin test, and recent criminal background check. Once a student is confirmed to rotate with a preceptor site, proof of this information is provided from the program and the student.
Click here for a list addressing health compliance for the student.
Being a preceptor is a great way to help the profession. Not only does precepting help the students but it also helps continue preceptors growth as clinicians. No matter how prepared you may be students push your expertise to its limits and allow reflection on your own limitations. Preceptors for the GVSU PAS Program are awarded other privileges as well. These include access to GVSU libraries, which includes free Uptodate access, discount at downtown YMCA, and CME programs at the Cook-Devos Center for Health Sciences. Below is a link to our brochure that explains in more details all of the benefits of being Preceptor for the GVSU PAS Program.

Public Financing Campaign group begins campaign by Mitch E. Perry
One of the most frequent criticisms of the way that politics works in the U.S. is that it takes money ââ¬â lots of money ââ¬â for people to run for office, eliminating many citizens whose ideas are as good if not better than better heeled candidates.
One way to even the playing field would be for public financing of campaigns. Currently citizens do this all ready ââ¬â if you check the box on your tax return, 3 dollars of that return goes into the funds provided to the Democratic and Republican candidates for President.
And there are some states who have also passed legislation allowing for some of public campaigns.
There is a new advocacy group now pitching the issue nationally: Theyââ¬â¢re called Just 6 Dollars .Orgââ¬Â¦Yesterday, members of the group ââ¬â which include a bi-partisan group of former Senators Bill Bradley, Bob Kerry, Warren Rudman, and Alan Simpson, discussed the planââ¬Â¦.John Rauh is a former Senate Candidate, and the founder of the organization. WMNF asked him how public funding systems are working in the 2 states that have approved such measures ââ¬â in Arizona and Maine (roll tape#1 o.q.ââ¬?to buy influenceââ¬?)
Thatââ¬â¢s John Rauhââ¬Â¦He lost to Judd Gregg in the race for US Senate back in 1992, and heââ¬â¢s the founder and president of American for Campaign Reform and their campaign ââ¬Åjust 6 dollarsââ¬Â¦.ââ¬? You can learn more about the group at their website; Just 6 dollars.orgcomments powered by Disqus

33 year old man | Scranton, PA, USA | Seeking women 20-40 within 150 miles of Nicholson, PA
Active within 24 hours
Yes, I have a job. Yes, I have a car. No, I don't live in my parents basement. Is that so odd??
A few things about me. I love to get out as often as possible. Anything active, any kind of traveling. Drinks... Anything from a nice Martini bar to a hole in the wall dive-bar, they're all fun as long as the company is good. But I also like getting dressed up for a night out on the town! Movies, dinner, bowling, pool... Seeing a good band is always a fun time! I love road trips or beach trips(especially the last minute ones, get home from work on Friday and just take off!) Wine Festivals are sooo much fun! They're always a good time and a great chance to meet all kinds of interesting people. I also love to cook, Seafood, Thai Food, and Italian are some of my favorites to make. I love staying in, making dinner, having some wine and watching movies as a change from going out. Love NYC trips or a weekend trip to Canada or the beach. Nothing better then weekend trips! I tend to be a bit "old school" when it comes to dating. I think if a man asks a woman out he should be willing to go pick her up, open doors, and pick up the check. That's not to say I don't think women are capable of doing all those things for themselves, I'm well aware that a woman can take care of herself as well as any man can. Oh, and I can fix pretty much anything... Just sayin!! Ok, enough about me. Anything else, feel free to ask. Now for a few things that I would like to find: Someone that likes to stay active, and can enjoy my adventures as much as I do. You don't have to like all the same things I do, but enjoying some of the same things would be nice. Someone who can have fun in a situation even if it's not their favorite activity. I think it's important to do things your other half likes doing, even if they're not your favorite. I think if you can be happy just by making the other person happy, the other person will reciprocate, and that's when you can really enjoy your time together. A cocktail dress and heels for going downtown is a big plus. As long as you also know how to just kick back and relax from time to time too. A woman can look just as great in sweat pants with her hair falling down, as in a dress. Someone who likes to explore new places. Traveling is much more fun with company! This is just a general idea of things I like. Nothing set in stone... Can't be to specific about every little detail of the person we'd like to find. Often it's the person with very few of the things we thought we were looking for, that turns out to be exactly what we want. What I'm NOT looking for: Liars: I think you can forgive someone for almost anything if you're honest with each other. But once the lying starts, you'll never know what's real and what's not. Cheaters: I understand no one is perfect, and people make mistakes... So I'm not eliminating anyone who's ever cheated. But if you're a habitual cheater, if you've cheated on every man you've gone out with... No thanks. If you're afraid of the word "relationship", if you like to "date" 6 different guys at the same time. If you're in a relationship but feel the need flirt with every guy in the bar to make yourself feel good. Someone who values money above anything else... If you treat your bartender, waiter/waitress, like dirt because you feel they're beneath you. If you look down on someone because they pulled up next to you in a Toyota, and you're in a Mercedes. I understand the importance of money. And I also understand a woman wanting a man that is self sufficient. I can even understand a woman that makes a lot of money and is used to a certain lifestyle, wanting a man that is living that same life style. But if you put down that you make less then $25,000 put will only consider talking to a man that makes $150,000 First of all I don't make over $150,000 so I don't have to worry about it. But even if I did. No thanks. Now that I read that, it sounds kind of mean... Not intended to be though!

Fine words right there jmac!....very profound IMO.
To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right.

Well.... looks to me like the robber got what he wanted and let the guy run off....... While the victim was in danger from the armed robber he wasnt actually "saved" by the mercedes guys...... they just got the guys wallet, car keys and cell phone back for him.
I would say if the robber was going to harm the victim that he would have harmed him instead of letting him run off down the street screaming...

Our military uses RPGs, surface-to-air, grenades, tear gas, etc, so who are they to say we shouldnt be allowed those same devices?
Since cops can CCW then any untrained yahoo should be allowed to CCW.
How about this one: Guns dont kill so why dont the Israelis let the Palestinians have them? The possession of a gun doesnt make someone any more of a threat.

Concealing the weapon keeps the public from making erroneous fear based assumptions of said pistol, as well as keeps the prof. scumbag from shooting the pistol holder first, which leaves no one left to stop the scumbag.
Blaming guns/gun owners does not help as they are not the reason for this and other tragedies.
You don't take a stop sign down if people blow through it without stopping.
So what is your solution? Cause it sure ain't gun control.
I think we need to first identify the problem before we can propose a solution.

Looks like I need to read this thread and get involved again...
First comment (not having read the thread yet):
Never saw a gun in my life that killed someone unless it was in the hands of a person. Also saw a lot of those same hands (a person you know) kill someone with a knife, machete, baseball bat, big stick, pipe wrench, pall-peen hammer (my great-grand-father was murdered with a ball-peen hammer... true fact). You gun haters need to reconcile the reality that another weapon will be front-center the minute guns are not. However:
Guns will ALWAYS be available... because there will always be an illegal way to get guns. Note Mexico... our neighbor to the south: Citizen ownership of guns is not the norm down there... yet the cartels have endless guns (and some of them were supplied by the US govt--Operation Fast and Furious). Yet crime in Mexico is WORSE than the USA.
Seems there is an example just south of our border your anti-gun ideals are just that... ideals... which are PROVEN to not work.
Tell you what: If you want to live somewhere without guns... there are lots of English speaking countries you can move to. Just leave us with our freedoms.

It Reaps. i made this when i was experimenting with TDExplosives. it MAY lag if overused or you have a very old computer.
Mine precious gold from the deformable terrain in order to buy better weapons, digging tools, and deployable defenses. Use these assets to defend your disembodied brain and bankrupt your opponent!
Old-school 2D sidescroller pixel graphics coupled with an extremely detailed physics simulation makes for a mix of nostalgia and surprising gameplay.

Yup, a fresh build is out, immediately available here, or on the HIB download page for you dear Humble Bundle customers! Mostly fixes and tweaks in this one, but there's some new fun content too!
It Reaps. i made this when i was experimenting with TDExplosives. it MAY lag if overused or you have a very old computer.
a futuristic mod that adds a new actor a dropship 10 weapons 2 bombs and a shield actors has long fly time due to special condest heat proof liquid nitrogen...
this is one of the best games ive played on my computer
-great graphics(for a 2d)
-great effects(even better than most 2d games)
-easily modded(a n00b could do it)
i give it a must play 4.5/5 on my scale.
i would try the game before you doubt it even though it is still in development.
Cortex Commands needs a lot of tweaking and fixes to get it up to the best condition, and the only thing I find a bit off is the pricing personally, since I'm not really sure if it's worth it's price yet (no online multiplayer seems to drag it down a bit) and sharing keyboards or gamepads for multiplayer feels old fashioned lol...
Adding it to a digital distribution system like steam could speed up the rate that it can update or distributed and also provides the advertisement it needs. Note that this method do let steam have a small cut, but you could get much more customers that way.
Not worth it? It cost like nothing to buy the pre-licence. One could easily earn that amount of money by simply moving someones lawn...
This is a good game with good ideas, but the controls are way too awkward.
Please, work under movement(so slow) and territory(in game you can stuck everywhere). And why all things are so small(on 1280x1024)? I believe you do something with loooooong loading.
Gameplay is cool!
Graphics are beautiful and effective!
Music is beautiful too!
Waiting for final release. Good Luck!
Where can i download this ?
I remember this game. Cool concept and graphics, ****** gameplay (even with the recommended dual analog controller)
****. you. if you dont like the genre, dont review.
I do like the genre you vapid ****, stop ******** your pants whenever someone criticises your game you ********. But it shouldn't matter whether someone likes a genre or not to review. (it wasn't a review anyway, it was a 2 sentence comment you pestiferous piece of ****) It isn't my fault the developers haven't spent half a goddamn hour playing their own game to see that the controls are so clunky only a goddamn fanboy (like you. pathetic may I add) could enjoy
oh wow! look at that! its a stuck up prick who dosent ******* realize that the game isnt even ******* DONE YET.
the game's finished already and can be purchased, though in any case, 'beta' does not qualify as being immune to any criticism.
Are you actually saying we're not allowed to comment on any WIP projects?
no. im saying that the game is nowhere near finished, and threfore, should not be thrown away so easily.
It's nowhere near finished? Not from the looks of it. I like the game and all but I have to agree with PoisonedV, the controls can be a bit clunky and you are a bit of a fan boy. Mind you, I do like this game, though it's not perfect.
its still very early in development.
Still if that is so, then we have the right to voice our opinions. I am sorry about that, but you're in the wrong to shun him for voicing his opinion. I mean after all, this community is bent on feedback and publicity of development.

Letter: Rudeness displayed, but not racism
S.H. Naron, Memphis
Like many others, I now just sigh in resignation at Wendi Thomas' self-serving race-baiting. There seems to be nothing she can't turn into a racist plot.
Referring to her March 24 column "Student learns who is served by system," what exactly were Justin Jones and his singing cohort ("in the tradition of resistance movements worldwide") trying to resist? A requirement that people prove they are who they say they are in order to vote?
That's a very worthy requirement. I don't think we do a good enough job as it is of ensuring that noncitizens can't hijack U.S. elections. I'm sincerely sorry that it's inconvenient for some people to come up with the required ID, but they can obtain it if voting is important to them. It's a real stretch to equate not accepting alternative IDs to the Jim Crow laws.
State Rep. Jeremy Durham, R-Franklin, was rude. That makes him a jackass, but not a racist jackass.

FOXBORO, MA - JANUARY 10: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots looks on during warm ups against the Baltimore Ravens during the 2010 AFC wild-card playoff game at Gillette Stadium on January 10, 2010 in Foxboro, Massachusetts. (Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images)
The New England Patriots have been the biggest contrast in the NFL for the 2012 season. While boasting the most prolific offense in the league, they also boast one of the worst defenses as well.We know that Tom Brady gives this team the best chance to win of any quarterback currently playing the game. That shows in a league leading 425.7 yards per game along with 472 total points on the season. That means that to beat the Patriots, opponents must plan on scoring more than 37 points per game.Going into the playoffs, one of the key factors for success is always said to be defense. If defense wins championships, the Patriots will find themselves on the short end of the stick.Does this mean a quick exit from postseason play? Here is what has to happen.

By the time Maxwell Gabriel allegedly crashed his taxi into a pedestrian, he had been stopped 22 times by police in the last 3 1/2 years.
According to the citations, Gabriel had sped at twice the posted limit, blown through stop signs and caused three other crashes before the woman was hit while crossing Michigan Avenue in June. In all, he had racked up 34 tickets since 2008 — well beyond the city's three-a-year limit for flagging dangerous cabdrivers.
That's because Cook County judges dismissed the vast majority of his tickets, as they have done with many other heavily ticketed cabbies, the Tribune has found.
An analysis by the newspaper suggests that a far higher percentage of tickets are thrown out for cabbies on average than for regular drivers. The frequent court dismissals have repeatedly helped cabbies keep their chauffeur's licenses — including drivers who were later blamed for injuring or killing pedestrians.
"It's really scary," said Veronica Andrews, the pedestrian allegedly hit by Gabriel's taxi. "These cabdrivers are licensed to drive the public. They should be held to a higher standard."
In the wake of two recent deaths involving taxi drivers, the Tribune's findings have also frustrated safety advocates.
"When you have these repeat offenders who are still on the road, that's creating a lot of danger and a lot of unsafe conditions," said Ethan Spotts of the Chicago advocacy group Active Transportation Alliance. "People shouldn't be afraid to walk."
An advocate for cabdrivers, George Lutfallah, said he wasn't surprised by the Tribune's findings. Cabbies are likely ticketed more because they spend so much time on the road, he said, and their dismissal rates are higher because they are far more aggressive at fighting tickets to keep their licenses and jobs. But he supports weeding out dangerous cabdrivers who give the trade a bad name.
"If the city can crack down on some of these really bad guys … and let (the rest of) us do our jobs, I think the industry would be a lot better off," said Lutfallah, who publishes a Chicago cab newspaper.
A top city official has pushed for tighter restrictions on cabdrivers, labeling many as poor drivers.
But a review of court records shows city government may share the blame for undermining one of its own key criteria for flagging dangerous cabbies.
Three strikes
City government has long relied on two separate systems to take problem cabdrivers off the road: a citizen complaint process — riders report taxis for reckless behavior or other problems — and the traffic courts.
For years the city has checked each cabdriver's traffic record annually. In the past, anyone found guilty of three or more moving violations could see their chauffeur's license yanked. But beginning this summer, such nonrenewals became automatic for cabbies with at least three moving violations, city officials said.
The tougher policy coincides with two high-profile pedestrian deaths involving taxi drivers.
In June, police said cabdriver Yao Ofori skidded across multiple lanes of rain-slicked Illinois Street and plowed into a man on the sidewalk, killing him instantly.
About two months later, police said a cab driven by Mohammed M. Ahmed, 40, of Chicago, crashed into an elderly woman crossing Sheridan Road, causing fatal injuries.
In response to a separate city study of cars hitting pedestrians, Chicago Transportation Commissioner Gabe Klein blamed the problem in part on taxi drivers. The city found that cabdrivers were involved in more than one of every four pedestrian crashes downtown.
