When signups came back online in March 2003, they contained a roadblock which required users to wait a minimum of 12 hours before their accounts were activated. This functionality was created specifically to weed out people who were not interested in actually maintaining a journal (e.g., those users who were really looking for a blog host).
As of 2005, the site hosted approximately 120,000 journals, of which roughly 8,000 were being actively maintained.
In February 2006, the main drive on which the diaries were saved failed, and the sole proprietor of the site sent the drive for data recovery. On February 24, 2006, it was announced that the drive was irrevocably damaged and all data was indeed lost. The owner stated that rather than try to resurrect the site, it would be formally closed down as of March 31, 2006.
As of March 2006, a community project, called Codexed, is underway to construct a site which combines the features popularized by Diary-X (using its original codebase as a launching point), with more modern features popular on other services. This community project is made up of a core team of one administrator, five department leads, and one project co-ordinator, as well as a large number of community contributors. The administrator of Diary-X plans to contribute to the new project, but will not be involved in the administration.
Codexed went almost completely dormant from about March 2007 until May 2008, with the forums mostly untouched, no visible progress made on the website, and no activity on the advertised IRC channel.
As of May 21, 2008, the Codexed site is undergoing a semi-public alpha test as part of a ramp-up to a release.
Former Diary-X users refer to themselves as Diary-Xers or dxers.

Black Monday
This Monday, September 1, Labor Day, will be Black Monday. The Louisville Cardinals will make their ACC debut in Papa Johns Cardinals Stadium against the Miami Hurricanes at 8 p.m. on ESPN. An Orange-out might be passe in Syracuse but the Cards fans and team are excited to be back in black. The traditionalist Charlie Strong refused the teams request to let them wear the black uni's during his tenure, opting instead to stick with their more traditional red and white uniforms. One of the first things Bobby Petrino did upon his return was to bring back the black, and why not, he introduced them in the first place.

Washington Monthly – National University Rankings
The Washington Monthly has posted its annual list of National University Rankings. Unlike the US News and World Report, this ranking system one is based on the University's contributions to the public good in the three broad categories: Social Mobility (recruiting and graduating low-income students), Research (producing cutting-edge scholarship and PhDs), and Service (encouraging students to give something back to their country).
Let's see how the ACC teams fared: Continue reading

Miami Football: The Over/Under
This article is the next in a series of articles in which the Confidential selects the over/under for football wins in 2014. We'll take a cursory look at the schedule and determine what we think is the point where folks will struggle to select "over" or "under." We hope people will share their comments as to "why" they are going over/under. If you disagree with our over/under choice, of course, feel free to let us know too. The fourth team up: Miami. We are going with an over/under of 7.5.
Throwback Thursday: Satire Piece on Miami Hurricanes Facing Truly Unprecedented Penalties!
(Originally published on August 3, 2012)
(BORING METROPOLIS IN MIDWEST) Emboldened by the support it received from all NCAA Presidents following the imposition of harsh penalties against Penn State Univeristy, the NCAA's executive committee is apparently set to announce penalties for the Miami Hurricanes that are even more unprecedented. The Confidential has learned that the executive committee is set to offer Miami the choice of (a) the death penalty to its football team for three years; (b) actual death to all people affiliated with the University; or (c) the following more overreaching and creative penalties than those imposed on Penn State:
- The football team must hire Greg Robinson and place him in charge, completely and unequivocally, of the defense from 2013 to 2015, and then again in 2017 (just to offset the obvious gains that will be made in 2016). Further, Greg Robinson will be prohibited from using stuffed animals to motivate his defense for one year. He will, however, be allowed to read children's books as desired
- The football team is required to use morbidly obese female "hosts" for all official and unofficial recruiting trips. Further, Janet Reno will be appointed as a special consultant to the program to ensure that no host with a BMI of less than 40 comes close to hosting a recruit
- The football team must change its colors to pink and sky blue
- The football team must stay in the Atlantic Coast Conference for the next 30 years, even if Florida State leaves. Also, Miami cannot vote against South Florida or Central Florida taking Florida State's place in the ACC
- The football team must continue to lose to Boston College annually
- Lane Kiffin is allowed to take the team's best player every year, regardless of where he coaches
- SCHOLARSHIP LIMITS: For all odd years from 2013 to 2017, the football team can only sign 100% Caucasian defensive backs and running backs, and must give 1 scholarship per year to a female kicker (provided she is not hot like Kathy Ireland). During even years from 2014 to 2018, the team must give 1 scholarship per year to a quarterback from Samoa, 2 scholarships per year to offensive linemen of 100% Chinese descent (provided they are not able to do cool thinks like in the movie Big Trouble in Little China), and 1 scholarship per year to a non-human.
- BOWLS: The above restrictions should take care of bowl eligibility. If not, Miami is only allowed to go to bowl games if they have a tie-in with the Big East (if any) or take place in crappy places like Idaho or Detroit.
- Upon further review, the basketball team must continue doing whatever it is currently doing to remain entirely irrelevant
- Just in case, John Calipari is allowed to take the team's best player every year, regardless of where he coaches
- The football team must pay annual fines of $10,000,000 dollars and 10,000,000 Cuban pesos, which will be earmarked for a pretend charity that devotes itself to something along the lines of rehabilitating prostitutes and/or supporting retired NCAA Presidents, from 2013 to 2015.
- Effective immediately and permanently, Miami must refer to itself as "Miami (FL)" and Miami of Ohio is allowed to refer to itself as simply "Miami"
- Luther Campbell loses Professor Emeritus status until 2018
At present, it is unclear what option will be selected by Miami. Needless to say, the athletic culture in Miami is about to change radically.

Still does not change the fact that % of products shipped does not = % of market.
This also just goes to show you that Nvidia can Lie, Cheat, steal, and probably kill people.. and for some reason the masses still think they are the best. Just like they have gotten away with stringing people along for nearly a year inticing them to *wait for the 9700pro killer*.. becuase its obviously going to be better etc etc. Yet even the 5900U is inferior in Dx9 performance and other features. Does it matter? no....
walkndude said:
Hellbinder accusing nVidia of probably killing people is classic, although I'm sure he'll respond he was just "kidding around"...
I assure you he wasn't.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????? ????????????????
LMAO @ walkndude.
Yea, you caught em dood. HellBinders post was a very clear accusation of Nvidia's having a completely illegal secret assassin team.
No, I'm not talking about the legal kind of assassins, nor the non-secret public kind.
Yea, that was exactly what his post was about. Way to pick that up. You are far to smart for HellBinder. Thank you ever so much for looking out for the rest of us. Boy, that HB, he sure is a NUT!
He'll just say the craziest things and
accuse people of the most outlandish Bull***t.
Hey, Walkndude, maybe you should get a special medal for this?
Or something.
edit: whoops, sorry walkndude, you obviously don't get hyperbole or humerous sarcasm, I was just kidding about you being smart.
I sincerely regret any and all effects that my comments may or may not have. Any person choosing to read them assumes all legal liabilities.

The weather this week dealt a blow too to government efforts to stem climate change, forcing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to cancel a press conference Monday intended to announce a new Climate Service office, which will keep the public up to date on global warming.
"More and more, Americans are witnessing the impacts of climate change in their own backyards, including sea-level rise, longer growing seasons, changes in river flows, increases in heavy downpours, earlier snowmelt and extended ice-free seasons in our waters. People are searching for relevant and timely information about these changes to inform decision-making about virtually all aspects of their lives," NOAA said in a statement.
In December, weather interfered with another government attempt to tackle climate change when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D- Calif., left the global climate summit in Copenhagen early in order to land in Washington before a storm hit.
That same week, former speaker Republican Newt Gingrich took time to deliver a short but skeptical message about weather and climate change via Twitter.
"As callista and i watched what dc weather says will be 12 to 22 inches of snow i wondered if God was sending a message about Copenhagen," Gingrich tweeted.
Over and over scientists repeat the same thing; some snow in Washington does not mean the rest of the earth is similarly cool.
"It doesn't matter what some politicians say," said National Snow and Ice Data Center's Serreze. "According to a NASA analysis, the global average temperature for 2009 is the second highest on record. The real metric is global temperature. The past decade was the warmest in the past 2,000 years."

It appears that the controversial move by Canadian Public Safety Minister Vic Toews to retract a paid position for a Wiccan prison chaplain was merely a harbinger of much bigger things. The CBC reports that Toews, who oversees Canada's penitentiaries, has eliminated all paid part-time chaplain services, effectively making government prison chaplaincy a Christian-only affair."Inmates of other faiths, such as Muslims, Sikhs, Buddhists and Jews, will be expected to turn to Christian prison chapl … [Read more...]

|Plain flour
|8 Ounce (225 Gram)
|2 Teaspoon (Leveled)
|1 1⁄2 Ounce, cut in small (40 Gram)
|4 Tablespoon
|2 , chopped
|1 Clove (5 gm), peeled and crushed
|2 Teaspoon
|Green chilies
|2 , deseeded and chopped
|1 Teaspoon
To make the tortillas, heat a large nonstick frying pan over a moderate heat and sieve the flour and salt into it.
Quickly rub in the fat with the fingertips and gradually stir in approximately 5 fl 02/125 ml warm water until a soft dough is formed.
Remove the pan from the heat and knead the dough gently on a floured board.
While keeping the rest of the dough covered with damp greaseproof paper, take a small ball of the dough, flatten it and roll out very thinly.
Then cut a 9 in/23 cm circle of pastry and add the trimmings to the remaining dough.
Continue this process until all the dough is used up.
Cook the tortillas in a non-stick frying pan for about 30 seconds each side, remove from the pan and keep warm and covered.
For the filling, heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion until soft.
Add the garlic and cook for a further minute or two.
Add the beans, sugar, chillis and salt and simmer with 1/4 pint/150 ml water for 15 mins.
Remove the chillis then drain and mash until a pulp is formed.
Add 2 fl oz/ 50 ml water.
Mix well and use as a filling for the tortillas.
Serve warm.
(In Mexico, beans are served at each meal and refried each time, hence they are known as fri-joles refritos, refried beans.)

Check out our guidelines and learn how to create your own!
The Alentejo (ah-LEHN-tay-ZHU, meaning 'beyond the Tagus River'), is a beautiful,mostly agricultural region, remarkable for its wide horizons, filled with soft hills that change color along the year, from deep brown to green with white, red and purple, to golden. Sunsets and the light play are stunning. As the warmest weathered region in Portugal, its inhabitants are known for their slow-paced, easy-going lifestyle and song-like accent, that are in great harmony with the Alentejo's calm-inducing topography. So, if you are there, do like the Alentejanos, and do it slowly. No stress, please.
The main city is Evora, in Alentejo Central, with historic monuments, churches and museums. Also in Alentejo, in the Évora region, was one of the development centers of early European megaliths (standing stones).
Regions (cities within)[edit]
Other destinations[edit]
Others destinations include all the Costa Sudoeste ,Alentejo Beach Coast, most of it untouched (so far) and with small beautiful beaches. Santiago do Cacém,Vila Nova de MilFontes,Zambujeira,Porto Covo,Trioa,Arraiolos,Ourique,Castro Verde,etc. Alto Alentejo also includes the great marble towns of Estremoz, Borba and Vila Viçoca - and the spectacular mountain villages of Castelo de Vide, Marvão. In Central Alentejo Evora city and the castleMonsaraz,in Baixo Alentejo the golden praries(planicia dourada)and Alentejo Litoral the extensive beaches of Sudeste Alentejano and Costa Vicentina.
Mostly rural,with some urban areas.Generally hotter than other parts of Portugal.
Get in[edit]
Get around[edit]
Most places may be reached by bus from Evora but for some of the mountain areas including Marvão and Castelo de Vide you will need to get first to Portalegre.
See[edit][add listing]
District capital cities of Evora, Portalegra, Beja, plus other historic cities and towns as well,the coast.
Do[edit][add listing]
Eat[edit][add listing]
Drink[edit][add listing]
Wines from the Alentejo region are very popular among the Portuguese people, so take the chance to know them!
Among all the Alentejo region you will find a lot of wonderful places to stay. Try Herdade dos Barros (country hotel) in Terena (Évora), there you will find personalized services, comfortable rooms, privacy, description, good taste and good atmosphere. There you will wake up to the sounds of birds, enjoy nature, relax, hiking, read a good book on the terrace, or just watch the scenery with a glass of wine. When night falls you will have a magnificent starry sky, and fall asleep to the sounds of crickets. But if you want a little more movement, you can explore all the historical and cultural heritage of the region (the Castle, the Chapel of Boa Nova, etc) very close to the farm; enjoy the calm waters of the dam Lucefecit (100 m the Herdade); or visit the neighboring regions, such as Vila Viçosa, Monsaraz, Évora, Alqueva, Badajoz, etc. For more information: http://www.herdadedosbarros.com ; (00351 964310216)

Pumpkin pie in winter. Strawberry pie in summer. Anytime is a good time for pie.
When I finally selected buttermilk, I was thrilled with how easy the pie was to make. Whisk a few ingredients together, pour the filling into an unbaked pie crust and that's it!
After the pie had baked and cooled, I nervously took a bite. I had waited so long to try this pie, I worried that I might not like it. After one bit, I realized, it wasn't anything like I had expected. In my mind's eye, I envisioned the cake being thick, almost like a cheesecake. I was wrong! The filling is creamy and lemony. It reminded me slightly of a lemon bar filling. I loved it!
I'm so happy I tried the pie. Here's the recipe. I hope you give it a try. . . .

Has anyone been reading comic books lately at Comicvine? How is it that ALL of these books are 4 and 5 star rated books? They are not that good. Shouldn't a 5 star comic represent the greater works in comic fiction? Say stories like Superman Red Son or even Claremont era X-Men? This doesn't even touch upon books that are iconic or actually represent the greatest works in comic fiction like, well, almost anything Alan Moore or The Dark Knight Returns which are certainly twice, no ten times as good as the muck that gets 5 star ratings on this site. Who are these comic reviewers? How am I supposed to trust these star ratings when they pretty much read 'If this is a new DC book it's definitely the best book right now as well as the rest of these 10+ 5-star rated DC books'. They are not THAT good. Some of them, sure, new Justice League gets a 5 star on it's good issues. Hell, even Aquaman was good enough to warrant a few 5-star reviews during the first run, other than that the website sets no real criterion for their rating system, that or they REALLY need people who are a bit more well read to be reviewing these books.
The issue I raise with it is that the comic review aspect of the site is great, in theory, but in practice it falls flat when every single book is 'the book to get'. Does anyone out there feel my discontent? Come on angry comic book nerds! Demand more honesty or better reviewers!

Jordan Williamson hit a 37-yard field goal in overtime and No. 14 Stanford upset No. 1 Oregon 17-14, denying the Ducks a chance to clinch the Pac-12 North and derailing their straight shot at the BCS championship game. If both Stanford and Oregon finish with wins in their final games next weekend, both will finish with one conference loss, which means Stanford will win the head-to-head matchup and go to the Pac-12 championship game for a chance to play in the Rose Bowl. Stanford (9-2, 7-1) will visit No. 1UCLA, which defeated No. 21 USC 32-29 earlier in the day to claim the Pac-12 South. Oregon (10-1, 7-1) will play rival Oregon State in the annual Civil War rivalry game in Corvallis. The loss snapped a 13-game winning streak for the Ducks, which was longest current streak in the nation. It was Stanford's fifth straight win. Oregon was the only Pac-12 team that Stanford hadn't defeated over the past two seasons.

Patient Registry Reports
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry was created nearly 50 years ago to collect information on the health outcomes, clinical care and demographic characteristics of people with CF who receive care at Foundation-accredited care centers.
This information is used to create CF care guidelines, assist care teams providing care to individuals with CF and guide quality improvement initiatives. Researchers also use the Patient Registry to study CF treatments and outcomes and to design CF clinical trials.
Each year, the Foundation publishes two Patient Registry data reports:
Data from more than 28,000 people with CF are included in the Foundation's most recent Patient Registry annual reports (2013).
Please consider completing the survey to provide feedback about the reports and help us continue to improve them. We appreciate your interest in the Patient Registry reports and value your time and opinion.

I mean, to graduate from Russian middle school, one must pull himself up 12 times. Is it common in the West? I don't think so. Modern word neglected strength as a form of beauty. In exchange, we got genderless hipsters, bulked-up bodybuilders, who forgot how to move their own bodies, and a small group of professional sportsmen and women, who (if they reflect sometimes on it) weep about the others.
Ancient Greek, who build the basics of European culture admired physical ability on par with knowledge and wisdom. The name Plato means "broad shouldered" and the great philosopher himself was a wrestler (I don't know if pankrationist is a word).
Why did we abandoned our bodies for extremes, whatever happened to the Golden Middle?
TL;DR modern world pussificates people
#164 to #90 - sebaman (01/18/2013) [-]
At this point physical strength is indeed something that is being neglected, but for a good reason. We don't need it anymore. We have machines to do the heavy lifting so why would we bother. Yes of course we are all pussies, but we like to focus on intelligence rather than strength and this tends do actually help us. We remember plato not because of his wrestling, but because of his philosophy.
#196 to #164 - beerterror (01/18/2013) [-]
Tell me more about focusing on intelligence... What did we do with all the knowledge? Most of people thinks that if they got a little of physics they know how universe works. Others think that evolution is a proof that Divine doesn't exist. Most of the greatest invention in the history of information is used for jerking off and for cats. Someone said "the sum of intelligence is a constant, only the people keep multiplying."
I don't negate your point, on the contrary - I totally agree that we don't need much physical strength because of the automata that we created to serve our needs. And it's good and natural. But it's like with science - the true science serves only the purpose of knowledge, there is no other point possible, it would therefore ceased to be science. Everything derived from it is optional. The same is with strong and able physique - it's its own purpose and goal. Of course that's only my point of view, I'd be more than happy for a longer discussion :)

#199 to #196 - sebaman (01/18/2013) [-]
I understand your views towards science and except them, however i would like to point out that our only good reason for knowledge is to use it for a purpose. Yes we like to know things, but if it does not propel humanity forward it would be rather useless. As a species we need to do everything possible to survive and being in excellent shape does not do the trick as well anymore. We have entered an age, where our only hope is to develop and learn. We are not going to solve our most pressing problems with bodybuilding. We need to study, we need to learn. I'd rather have our newest generation in school than at the gym because they are our only change of solving problems like global warming and our lack of energy.
#200 to #199 - beerterror (01/18/2013) [-]
Yes, yes of course. But do you see that intelligence is becoming as elite as, well, good shape? Those bits of physics, chemistry and biology that we see here and there on the Internet hardly can mean that everybody starts to be educated and so on. From what I know, this generation of school children is one of the worst to date. Let the scientists do their work. Let the sportsmen amaze us. But I'm talking only about common people - let us develop ourselves wholly, body and mind together. And well, many signs point to somehow sinister thing - we could solve the problem of energy already, but it's not profitable enough for some people. This all Thorium thing that was here some time ago, the electricity, the stupid decisions planned to be made after the Fukushima tragedy... Who knows, maybe it's the morals that should be developed as well as technology/
#197 to #155 - beerterror (01/18/2013) [-]
Yes, alcohol is a part of everyday life and it's sad. And about steroids... You know, when your ambitions best you, you start cheating - but these are that extremes that I was talking about. The rivalry has sense only on the same level, when you try to beat not you opponent really, but your own limitations.
#201 to #197 - lazypaul (01/19/2013) [-]
But you make it sound like eastern Europe is some magical, toughened, cultured place because communism turned it into a ********* . And that the west is a land of hipsters and bodybuilders with no culture or 'toughness'. The west is just as vein as the east, the average easterner is no stronger or tougher than their western counterpart and bodybuilders still know how to move and many are also athletes.

Polo Modern Reserve by Ralph Lauren
I don't have my Polo Crest anymore or I'd so a side-by-side. It had been such a long time since I'd sampled PMR, that I was expecting more greenery and less leather, so I'm questioning my previous treatment of it as a summer scent; now I'd say it's a good intermediate for all seasons. It starts out as a very light, well-behaved spearmint with an Antaeus-like leather underneath, and surprisingly a bit of fruit, which to me is a lot like the banana in Acier Aluminium. This stuff, even moreso than Crest, turns the old drill sargeant's piney leather belcher of Polo into a usable fragrance; Crest did it largely with summery wintergreen, which I can only take so much of, but PMR does it with an interesing mix of summery and wintery notes. The sweet florals in the mid-notes remind me of Van Cleef and Arpels or Hammam Bouquet, which I don't like, but the leather reminds me of Parfum d'Habit, which I find very true-to-life. Plus there's some wood and pine needles, but it's from a lush, magnificent old growth forest, not the sort of "hey guys, we have a few pine trees too in New Mexico," like the bone-dry, scrubby forests of Yatagan. I also think it nails this genre better than Eucris because it includes more sweet spices and less astringent herbs.

Arizona's Mt Graham and the Coronado Trail...
View Single Post
The Tourist
Joined: May 2006
Location: Phoenix, Arizona
Oddometer: 3,212
It Gets Better
Mt Turnbull, San Carlos Indian Reservation
Ready for More Action
My Studly Self
Mt Graham and the Pinaleno Mountains come into view while riding US 70 through the Gila Valley.
I stop at a Subway in Safford. The twin towns of Safford and Thatcher make up a decent sized farm town in the Gila Valley. (elevation 2900 feet)I'm not really hungry yet so I toss my foot long dinner in the tank bag. I had three frozen water bottles in the tank bag that kept everything cold for two days of intense heat.
I turn onto the 366 about 5 miles South of Safford. Riggs Flat Lake is a high altitude lake locals say is good for fishing. The road dead ends at the lake. As you can see in this photo the road is very straight as it begins up the base.
10 minutes from town the scenery changes drastically.
About 15 minutes from town the temperature has dropped from 98 degrees to 65 degrees. I think this place was called Wet Canyon Bridge. It feels like a million miles from the desert already.
The twisties on this road are great although some are very challenging. In fact I would say this is the most challenging asphalt road I've ever ridden. There are some corners so tight you need to be comfortable making sharp first gear u-turns with elevation changes. Many of the corners have a decreasing radius and don't look too bad at first, so make sure you can see the corner exit before charging in too fast. Also many corners had loose gravel and sandy patches. Lots of exposure with no guardrails.
Don't tip over here...
I'm riding towards a sharp right corner when I notice a Jeep Wrangler stopped at a pullout on the left side of the road. I spot a smokin'
chick walking up to the passenger side of the Jeep. She is wearing tight blue jeans and an
orange string bikini top
. Needless to say, she gets my attention. She pauses and turns to watch me pass. In retrospect, I think she was only interested because she thought she would get to see a motorcycle crash! I finally decide I should look back at where I'm going. I've started my right turn far too early! I'm heading towards the rock face on the right edge of the road. I'm thinking about how much it's going to suck, crashing with an audience!
I managed to change direction abruptly and save my sorry ass.
I scoot around the corner and get my first view of the desert to the south. I start looking for a spot to stop and get a picture, but there are no safe spots with a good view through the trees. I do a U-turn to go back to get the shot I missed. The Jeep carrying
miss orange bikini
passes me going the other way.
"Hey honey, that pervert turned around for another look!"
I stopped here to get the previous shot. You can see the corner I almost missed in the far right of the photo.
It's green here.
I catch up with the Jeep again a little while later.
"Look Honey, that pervert is now tailgating us."
The Jeep driver pulls off the road. Either to let me pass, or see if I'm really stalking them. I need to find a place to sleep and they had stopped across the driveway to the Shannon Campground. I wave my thanks and pull around the Jeep into the campground. It seems like a nice spot. There aren't many nice views with the trees close to the sites. There's only 8-10 sites and 3 are taken. I've got a little daylight left so I decide to ride further and see what else I can find.
The pavement ends...
After about 2 miles of decent gravel road I'm rewarded with this campground.
I've got the place to myself!
Apparently I'm not the first adventurer in these parts.

You miss 100% of shots you never take
Traveler to 7 continents, tech startup guy, and sometimes a bit of trouble. I'm an intellectual guy that has just the right amount of impulsive decision-making to make people wonder how I passed the 8th grade. I find the typical interview style questions like "where do you work?" boring, so if you are up to having a bit of fun with this "online dating" thing, then let's give it a go. Here are two truths and a lie to get the conversation started: - I worked at YouTube before people knew what it was. I couldn't have asked for better inspiration to pursue my own entrepreneurial ambitions. - I've stared a lion in its face in Africa (right after it was fed). 20 minutes later I saw it take down a gazelle for seconds. - I've driven 145 mph on two occasions - once on the autobahn and once on a track in a modified F1 car. If you guess correctly, first drink is on me. What I'm doing with my life: Working hard on startups and making use of my estimated 30,000 day lifespan. For someone with poor vision and bad coordination, I've managed to claw my way into surviving rounds with novice kickboxers, occasionally hitting that right-left crossover to right spin layup, and lifting heavy weights if all else fails. Between the various hectic professional and social endeavors I take, I enjoy pursuing various life hacks. In a past life I was a polyphasic sleeper and lucid dreamer, and I've devoted a disproportionate amount of time studying body language and voice intonations as signals to determine how someone is feeling. Next up is running an experiment with Soylent to completely replace eating food for a week. I live healthy, spend quality time with family, and pray. I'm looking for someone who: - Doesn't feel an immediate pressure to procreate. Let's chat, get to know one another, and if we aren't compatible, let's be friends. I can be an exceptionally solid wing and fun guy to hang out with. - Values life experiences more than life possessions. - Laughs at things other people don't think are funny. Laughs even harder when it is actually funny. - Brushes before she flosses. - Is spontaneous and will drop everything for a weekend rendezvous. - Is honest, open, and supportive.

Since its founding in 1975, ESP has been manufacturing high end parts, as well as building incredible guitars that have found a home on stages across the world. With a keen sense of detail and a commitment to top notch craftsmanship, ESP guitars are truly special instruments. ESP's obsession with being the best has led the brand to become the choice for some seriously heavy hitting guitarists.

Whether you're just learning your chops or doing local gigs, this axe has you covered.
Maybe you'd rather pay tribute to your favorite shredder Kirk Hammett? If so, you'll love the KH-2 Kirk Hammett Signature Series Electric Guitar. This guitar is designed to Kirk's exact specifications, and is an exact replica of the one he takes on tour with Metallica. With screaming EMG-81/60 active humbuckers for an absolutely extreme tone and an extra thin flat neck for furious fret work, this guitar will help you ride the lightning and unleash your inner metal maniac.
The truth is, regardless of which ESP guitar you choose, you're going to be blown away by how good it sounds. With almost 40 years of experience, ESP knows what it takes to make the perfect guitar. So plug in, tune up, and get ready to rock out!

A strong backhand slap from end of solar storm (Update)March 9th, 2012 By SETH BORENSTEIN , AP Science Writer in Earth / Earth Sciences
The northern lights or aurora borealis fill the western sky Friday, March 9, 2012, above the Russian Orthodox Saint Nicholas Memorial Chapel in Kenai, Alaska. The display of lights came in the aftermath of a solar storm that struck Earth on Thursday. (AP Photo/Peninsula Clarion, M. Scott Moon) MAGS OUT, NO SALES
The solar storm that seemed to be more fizzle than fury got much stronger early Friday before fading again.
At its peak, it was the most potent solar storm since 2004, space weather forecasters said.
No power outages or other technological disturbances were reported from the solar storm that started to peter out late Friday morning.
Solar storms, which can't hurt people, can disturb electric grids, GPS systems, and satellites. They can also spread colorful Northern Lights further south than usual, as the latest storm did early Friday.
And more storms are coming. The federal government's Space Weather Prediction Center says the same area of the sun erupted again Thursday night, with a milder storm expected to reach Earth early Sunday.
The latest storm started with a flare on Tuesday, and had been forecast to be strong and direct, with one scientist predicting it would blast Earth directly like a punch in the nose. But it arrived Thursday morning at mild levels - at the bottom of the government's 1-5 scale of severity. It strengthened to a level 3 for several hours early Friday as the storm neared its end. Scientists say that's because the magnetic part of the storm flipped direction.
"We were watching the boxer, expecting the punch. It didn't come," said physicist Terry Onsager at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's space weather center in Boulder, Colo. "It hit us with the back of the hand as it was retreating."
Forecasters can predict a solar storm's speed and strength, but not the direction of its magnetic field. If it is northward, like Earth's, the jolt of energy flows harmlessly around the planet, Onsager said. A southerly direction can cause power outages and other problems.
Thursday's storm came in northerly, but early Friday switched to the fierce southerly direction. The magnetic part of the storm spent several hours at that strong level, so combined with strong radiation and radio levels, it turned out to be the strongest solar storm since November 2004, said NOAA lead forecaster Bob Rutledge.
Skywatchers reported to NOAA shimmering colorful auroras in Michigan, Wisconsin and Seattle - areas that don't normally see the Northern Lights - Rutledge said. Other space weather enthusiasts reported auroras in Alaska, Minnesota, and North Dakota and in the southern hemisphere in Australia and New Zealand.
"Up north, they got a great display," said NASA solar physicist David Hathaway.
By late Friday morning the storm was essentially over, forecasters said. But they had a new flare from the same sunspot region to watch. Preliminary forecasts show it to be slightly weaker than the one that just hit, arriving somewhere around 1 a.m. EST Sunday.
The storms are part of the sun's normal 11-year cycle, which is supposed to reach a peak next year.
"This is what we're expecting as we approach solar maximum,"" Onsager said. "We should be seeing this for the next few years now."

#2: Much of farmed salmon (44 percent) is thrown away. Food waste accounts for 20 percent of meat and dairy's environmental impact, and farmed salmon has one of the highest waste rates. Considering that it takes up to five pounds of wild fish to feed a pound of salmon, there are a lot of fish being pulled from the oceans to feed salmon whose meat just gets thrown away. To cut down on food waste, whether it be salmon or other forms of high-greenhouse-gas-emitting meat and dairy, buy as much as you know you'll eat, and freeze any leftovers (here are a few tips on freezing cheese).
#3: Meat and cheese have hidden costs. A four-person family skipping meat and cheese one day a week is the environmental equivalent of not driving for five weeks. Behind lamb, beef, and cheese production are the two most greenhouse-gas-emitting foods Americans eat. All the corn and grain grown to feed conventional cattle result in high levels of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. And in some areas of the world, rainforests are being razed in order to raise more cattle. Such deforestation is the world's largest driver of climate change. One reason cheese generates such high emission levels is that it requires so much milk to produce it, and all that milk comes from gassy cows. Less-dense cheeses, such as cottage cheese, are less polluting.
#4: You can make beans less gassy, simply by cooking them using a pressure cooker. Most of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with meat are generated on the farm in the production of feed and the processing of the meat, whereas most of those associated with plant proteins like beans and vegetables are generated once you get them home, during the cooking and waste-disposal process. Using a pressure cooker cuts cooking time in half and reduces beans' greenhouse-gas emissions by 25 percent, the report found.
#5: Tomato season is great for the planet. This is probably the best news of the study. Of all the foods included in the analysis, only lentils ranked lower than tomatoes with regard to greenhouse-gas emissions. Just make sure you eat them! Waste accounted for a larger portion of plant-related emissions than meat's because decaying produce emits methane; 20 percent of tomatoes' emissions were attributed to waste. So eat, can, or otherwise preserve all those summer tomatoes before they go to waste!

20 Questions With… Giles Terera
Editorial Staff • West End • 24 Jul 2006
After leaving drama school, actor Giles Terera joined the special ensemble company set up at the National Theatre by then-artistic director Trevor Nunn. During the 1999/2000 season, the NT Ensemble presented six new productions, with Terera appearing in three of them: Troilus and Cressida, Candide and Darker Face of the Earth. He followed this up by taking the title role in the Olivier Award-winning NT production of Stiles and Drewe's musical Honk! The Ugly Duckling.
Terera's West End musical credits include Rent, 125th Street, Jailhouse Rock and The Rat Pack, the last two of which both earned him Whatsonstage.com Theatregoers' Choice Award nominations for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical (for his performance Quickly Robinson) and Best Takeover in a Role (for his Sammy Davis Jr), respectively.
Elsewhere, Terera's other stage credits include The Tempest, Six Degrees of Separation, Bill Shakespeare's Italian Job, Demon Headmaster, The Animals of Farthing, You Don't Kiss and Up on the Roof.
Terera is now back in the West End, playing one-time child star Gary Coleman from TV's Different Strokes in the West End premiere of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical comedy Avenue Q.
Date & place of birth
Born 14 December 1976 in Hackney, east London.
Lives now in
Alexandra Palace, north London.
Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts. I don't know really why I wanted to be an actor. It was something I always did as a kid, doing school productions and everything. But it never entered my head until I left school that it would be something I could do professionally.
First big break
That would be at the National. I was about 22. I'd just left drama school for a couple of months, I'd done one job, and then I got an audition at the National. I went along and auditioned for Trevor Nunn, John Caird and Peter Darling. I was really nervous. They were doing the whole Ensemble '99 thing with 50 actors. I got the job. We spent the year doing six plays and I was in three, working with people like Simon Russell Beale, Roger Allam, Dennis Quilley, Henry Goodman and Patricia Hodge. It was 50 of the best actors in the country, so I had a good schooling. I was the youngest. I made lots of really good friends, and worked with lots of great people. It was an amazing year. At the end of that year, they added two more productions, Honk! The Ugly Duckling and The Villains' Opera. Julia Mackenzie was directing Honk!, which I auditioned for. The part of the cat was the one I really liked when I read it, but some friends of mine said "no no no, you have to go for the part of the ugly duckling". So I went for it and got it. Up until that point, when I joined the National, it was completely as ensemble spear carrier. Then, at the end of the year, I got my first lead in Honk!. So I guess that's my big break.
Career highlights to date
That year at the National was pretty special, really special. Playing Ariel at the RSC was also great. Shakespeare has always been my first love, it's what I am most passionate about. So to do that and perform with Philip Voss, who is one of the best I think, and travel the world with it… great. Performing in Las Vegas two years ago was really, really crazy. When I was doing Jailhouse Rock, they sent me and the guy who played Elvis out for a couple of days to do a half-hour promo. I'd never been to Las Vegas before. We flew out, stayed in Caesar's Palace and performed there, and then we flew back. That was the craziest thing ever.
Do you have any difficulty switching from Shakespeare to musicals?
The way I look at it is that both are storytelling. The basics are the same and apply to both, a character is a character: a story is a story, wants are wants, needs are needs. People will pigeonhole you in acting. It's so compartmentalised. If you stay too long doing one thing, people won't look at you for anything else. I try to make different choices all the time, and I try to maintain contact with people who aren't in musicals. It is difficult, though, it's something you have to concentrate on.
Favourite co-star
Denis Quilley (who died in 2003). I absolutely loved him, he was just the best. At the National, he was the oldest member of the Ensemble and I was the youngest. He took me under his wing, he was just really good to me. We would chat and he would tell me old National Theatre stories. But more than that, he was a professional who I really looked up to. He'd been doing it all his life and his professionalism was what struck me most. I learned so much from him.
Favourite directors
Trevor Nunn is brilliant. I've worked with him three times now, I like working with him. He's tireless for a start. And I've never heard him raise his voice – he doesn't have to, he can command a room of 50 actors without any effort. His notes as well… he's just brilliant, I love the way he works. James Macdonald I really like working with. He did The Tempest, and I've worked with him a bit this year at the National Theatre Studio. He's great.
Favourite playwrights/musical writers
Shakespeare's got everything, his well never runs dry, is what I always think. No matter who you are as an actor, you can always find it in Shakespeare. I like Harold Pinter as well. For musicals, Stephen Sondheim because he's just amazing.
What roles would you most like to play still?
In musicals there's nothing that I feel I'd really like to play. There are some play parts, though. I did Six Degrees of Separation at the Sheffield Crucible, and I'd like to have another go at that. Also, I'd love to play Belize in Tony Kushner's Angels in America. And of course, there are lots of Shakespeare roles: Romeo, Mercutio, Hamlet, and the fools. I like the fools, particularly the one in King Lear.
What was the last thing you saw on stage that had a big impact? And the first?
I saw Hay Fever with Judi Dench last week and thought it was very well done. The last thing I really, really enjoyed was Doubt with Eileen Atkins on Broadway in February. The first thing I saw was… well, actually it was sort of two things. When I was a kid, my mother took me to the Palladium to see the comedian Russ Abbot, who was massive at the time. I remember going and just the entire building rocking with laughter. That made a big impression on me. But the first thing I went to see on my own was Five Guys Named Moe, which was here (at the then Albery). I'd just gone to drama school and I got a ticket up in the gods. Sometimes even now in the warm-up I look up and try to see which seat it was I sat in and I think I can pick it out. So coming to perform here was a big old hair-raising experience.
What might you have done professionally if you hadn't become an actor?
I've no idea. I don't think I'm good at anything else. I'd probably busk somewhere, take my guitar and busk. I have recorded some stuff, but I don't think there's enough material for people to buy. I used to have a band called Giles and the Stand and we used to gig all round London.
What would you advise the government – or the industry – to secure the future of British theatre?
We could do with a stronger actors' union. Sometimes I look at how strong the musicians' union is and I wish our union was better at dealing with the problems that actors face, especially in the West End. There's a situation I've been aware of recently where a touring production has come in, it hasn't been Equity contracted and people haven't been paid. That shouldn't be allowed to happen. It shouldn't be the case that performers are performing and not being paid - management companies shouldn't be able to take such liberties, especially not in a West End production. That's a rare incident, but it still happens.
If you could swap places with one person (living or dead) for a day, who would it be?
George Bush, just to hear what was said behind those closed doors. I think what's actually said off the record, not what the public hears, must be quite terrifying… and probably hilarious. Which is why Michael Moore is so good, because he captures that terrifying hilarity of the whole situation.
Favourite books
Their Eyes Were Watching God by an American writer called Zora Neale Hurston, who wrote in the 1930s. That's my favourite that I read at least once a year, it's just brilliant. Also The Catcher in the Rye, The Heart of Darkness, Moby Dick and Frankenstein. They're all sort of journey books. My favourite books are all novels, but I don't really read that much fiction. It's mostly non-fiction stuff for me unless someone recommends something.
Favourite after-show haunts
Joe Allen's. The pianist Jimmy never lets me leave without singing something.
Favourite websites
Whatsonstage.com! You can always rely on it. The crazy people on the Discussion Forum make me giggle, it's so gossipy. But the thing I love about your site is that it's done with love, it's all for the good of theatre, for theatre lovers by theatre lovers, and it's informative. Other favourites? Anything involving porn! (He laughs, in reference to Trekkie Monster, in Avenue Q.) I'm going to join the 21st-century soon and get a laptop. I log on every day at the internet café, but I need a laptop.
Why did you want to accept your part in Avenue Q?
It made me laugh out loud, which things don't do – or very rarely do. My agent said, "there's this thing called Avenue Q". I'd sort of heard about it from friends, but then I went and got the cast recording. I listened to it and I loved the material, I loved the writing, I thought it was very funny, very fresh. And then I heard who the character was.
How familiar were you with the real Gary Coleman?
I watched Different Strokes like everyone else as a kid. I loved it because of this little black kid, and you didn't see many black kids on telly at that point. And it was funny. But, unlike in America, we didn't get what happened to Gary Coleman after that. We saw Different Strokes and that's it. If you told most people here he was dead, they'd believe you. But in America, it's been quite public how he's gone on to have this non-career. Initially, when I accepted the job, the character I was going to be playing wasn't Gary Coleman at all. On Broadway, Gary Coleman was played by a woman and they weren't quite happy with that for some reason. They wanted to completely change things and have it played by a man, so that's when I got on board.
How did the part come back to being Gary Coleman?
First my character was going to be Job, then it was just Gary with a similar trajectory to Gary Coleman but it wasn't specifically him. And then during week two of previews, the director Jason Moore said "okay, we're going to try something, we're going to try having him as Gary Coleman". And I said "yes, great!" Because up until that point it had been a bit weird and the audience seemed confused by the whole thing. Most people here know who Gary Coleman is, and if they don't, they at least know Different Strokes because loads of people watched it. Once we changed it back to Gary Coleman, it worked better from then on. The audiences laugh so they obviously know who he is and they get the joke.
You're one of three human characters in Avenue Q. Are you jealous of the puppeteers?
At the end of the first week, the others put their puppets on and demonstrated what they'd been doing in puppet school the week before, which was miming to "YMCA". It was absolutely brilliant and hilarious and touching. I bought into it straight away. They were saying "yeah well, we're not great at it yet, we've only had a week", but they had it immediately and I just thought wow, what a great skill to have. And for a few seconds, I was jealous – until they all started complaining of shoulder ache! The puppeteers have to have physio once a week. I love watching them but it's very hard work and I don't know how good I'd be at it. These guys sort of make it look easy but obviously not everyone can do it. They must have seen hundreds of people for these parts and they've really picked the best ones for it. I've got nothing but admiration for them. They each do two or three different puppets as well, which is really hard.
What are your future plans?
I'm contracted here until next year. After that, I'd like to do a good new play. I've been saying that for a while. I did some radio recently and I'd forgotten how much fun radio was, so I'd like to do some more of that, too. I'd also still like to have a crack at LA some day, but who knows.
Avenue Q is at the West End's Noël Coward Theatre (formerly the Albery).
