Mr Gill's bile at Senator Vitter is unceasing. He cannot get over bringing up personal issues from 12 years ago in a political context. It is akin to mentioning the rumors of Sen. Landreau's trist with former Governor Edwin Edwards in the early 1990s...
Mr. Gill is spectacularly ill informed about the consequences of Salazar's actions on every nook and cranny of the economy of S. Louisiana.
He is equally uninformed about Salazar's arrogance, conflict of interest, diverting funds from lease payments to his pet "green" projects, defiance of federal court orders.
He is apparently not concerned in the slightest with the scientific truth of the Macondo spill and the minimal effect it had on the coast, marshes or eco-systems, preferring to just present his left-wing political impressions as fact.
Gill is also apparently unconcerned that Salazar's pet-protege, Michael Bromwich - former head of the MMS - who upon leaving the agencies IMMEDIATELY set up his own consulting firm for oil companies, complete with picture of himself in Agency head gear.... this after trashing the professionals for months as being "in bed with industry."
Gill's rants, partisan, mean-spirited, intellectual vapid columns are one reason I canceled my subsciption... which will remain canceled until he and kindred spirits cease to dominate the way news in reported in the T-P.
- The destruction of the industry is real... just drive 98 from Houma to Lafayette and look at the closed businesses.
- The re-org of the MMS started BEFORE the BP blowout, mainly design to strip the revenue functions and send them to Denver (Salazar's town).
- The person who has maligned, denigrated and libeled the MMS/BOEMRE most is Bromwich and Salazar, calling the people "corrupt," "in bed with industry," "criminal"... they are none of the above... without even knowing what the functions and role of the MMS/BOEMRE is.
- The regulatory "fix" after the blowout was written by Bromwich's staff lawyers (the IRU), all political hires, none of whom have any oil-field experience, and they allowed no industry comments, hence mass confusion.
- Bromwich hired 21 special lawyers (the IRU), none of whom know squat about oil industry, all of whom are democratic hacks... all get paid royally for adding virtually nothing, all have a political agenda and are politicizing the MMS/BOEMRE in almost criminal ways, knowing the DOJ will turn a blind eye.
- Bromwich's IRU have interferred constantly in the technical investigation of the BP blowout, demanding rewrites, re-wording based on their political agenda.... it was/is borderline criminal behavior.
Perhaps it takes some drama to bring the attention of the press to what these people have done, and are doing to the economy.
Gill only crawls out from under his rock to spew pollution and calmuny on a Republican. Strange how Gill never questioned the dealings of Kate Blanco, Edwin Edwards, Bill Jefferson or any of the Dem elite who stole this state into the ground for a century. It would be easier to appreciate Gill's writings if he was not such a strident partisan voice. Frankly, he is boring....
This is another judicial smoke screen. The three previous wells approved were either wells suspended while drilling, or wells already drilled awaiting production approval. This well is one that was previously permitted.
These are not "new permits to drill." Bromwich and Salazar are a two-man made disaster.
T-S, you mean, "they waited to find out the truth instead of publishing propaganda and BS like the T-P." I suggest that you quit believeing in magic the tooth fairy.
Losconinhum - exactly what mechanism will make large amounts of oil suddenly appear next summer - absent a new spill? Did you ever study any science in school? We have to do something about public education in this State.
The T-P should be ashamed of itself for front-paging this travesty and completely false story. This is all too common of that newspaper and reporters.
What is amazing is that the newpaper tried to blame the Coast Guard and BOEMRE (MMS) for their sloppy and mishandled reporting... the T-P people are a State-wide joke
This artricle is idiotic. Ask this, "why didn't the Coast Guard prevent the Valdez from running aground in Alaska?" ... or ... "why didn't all the government Geologists prevent Mt. St. Helens from erupting?"
The government does not specify how the brakes of a car are designed.. just that the car needs to have brakes. To think that the government can dictate extremely detailed, intracate technology to industry, and then actually oversee the application, is a gross mis-understanding of the power and charge of the regulatory agency.
Why a newspaper, which should have some leaning toward "news" and "facts," would adopt this position is a freaking jaw-dropping joke.
Marlin, if oil is below 10 gravity, it will sink, but it will not then suddenly somehow become lighter and float back to the surface. That is not how oil works... the light ends evaporate first, leaving the heavy stuff... which physically cannot then become "light" again. You are even more foolish about dispersants, which "disperse" oil into small molecules mixing with water. Dispersants are basically soap, which is a surfactant which removes the bonds that keep oil and water from mixing... hence the effectiveness of soap cleaning a frying pan. Dispersants have nothing to do with oil "sinking" or "floating." I know what I'm talking about. You seem to be a typical of believer in environmental "magic."
dumbazz reporters and dumber readers. Algae blooms are often mistaken for oil...and are reported and investigated yearly. What is amazing is (a) a newspaper reporter in New Orleans who cannot tell the difference and won't investigate before reporting; (b) a readership who is so qullable that they can believe that individual oil molecules suddenly decide to coagulate and float to the surface in calm conditions.
Oil floats on water... got that? it doesn't sink, and then suddenly decide to float. Go learn some basic high school physics... Oh, I forgot.. majoring in journalism doesn't require taking science, and studying "environmentalism" allows belief in magic.

Girls' Generation expressed particular affection for their new album.
On January 9th, Girls' Generation appeared on SBS 'Night of TV Entertainment', and had an interivew.
As the reporter said, "I'm sure you would feel quite special with the new hip hop concept," Sunny replied, "We went through a major transformation. It's been 6 years since out debut, and many people might get different feelings from us."
TaeYeon said, "We are aware of the fact that there are many people who do not like our new concept as much as many do, but I think performing with confidence is the most important thing," and HyoYeon also said, "We've never done any dance like that."
Tiffany told that she claimed that she will never high heels for this album, and said, "We gave up on heels, and focused all of our energy to performance."

In Outlook 2010 Power Shortcuts, author David Diskin shares an assortment of time-saving tips and tricks to maximize efficiency and productivity in Outlook 2010. The course covers tips for organizing and sending email, working with tasks, scheduling appointments, and maintaining contact lists. Also included are tutorials on email etiquette, Outlook customization, and much more. A quick reference guide to shortcut keys accompanies the course.
When you are viewing an e-mail, it's helpful to have more information about the sender right at your fingertips, and with Outlook 2010, you do. If you simply position your mouse over any contact's name in an e-mail heading, a small window appears, providing you with some basic information. Here I can see Judith's Free/Busy information, her title, and the business that she belongs to. If I double-click instead, I'll get even more information, including their phone number and e-mail address. Anything I see in blue is a hyperlink.
To schedule a meeting with Judith, I can just click the Free/Busy notice here, and the next available time is automatically selected. Of course, all this only works if the contact is in my address book or the Global Address Book. To add a new contact to my address book, I can pull down the Options menu and choose Add to Outlook Contacts. I'll make any changes that I need to and then hit Save. This concludes chapter 6. Our next chapter covers a variety of tips that span Outlook, including navigation shortcuts, using categories, and tips for e-mail etiquette.
So let's move on to chapter 7, "Miscellaneous Tips and Tricks."

Syncing blackberry with mac os 10.8
Hey guys,
I was wondering if its possible to sync a blackberry with a mac. I'm running OS 10.8.

Backup your Torch on the Mac.
I have my Torch synced with the work iMac (i'm home now, on a PC) from memory there should be 2/3 icons on the top right hand side of the DM interface (window)
1. Use DM to backup your Torch.
2. On the first sync, it might recommend to replace the Torch data with whats on your Mac.
3. If you have data on your Torch that's not on your Mac then i would recommend to Merge data.
Lastly you can sync your Mac address book, iCal (including tasks and reminders) and Apple Mail notes (if you use this)This posting is provided as is and implies no warranties.

First and for all, i exported my calendar (right click on the calendar you want -> export) then i logged out of iCloud. then made a local calendar and imported the file. Then rebooted everything (entire mac) and connected my BB to my desktop manager and it worked. Now i'm trying to figure if its possible to sync my icloud calendar with my local...else i will always need to export-import
It's about the Contacts
Situation: New-to-me BB 9800 and an iMac running Mountain Lion
The Calendar was no problem ... its sync worked immediately, even from iCloud-based calendars, which was a surprise given other comments here and elsewhere!
However, the Contacts were not transferring anything at all at first. I had been keeping them in iCloud, so I copied them over to the Mac and set the sync from there. The results are confusing. Some contact entries copy completely while others copy only partially, i.e., eMail address and Phone number, but not mailing address and notes.
I'm new to the BB so this has confused me more than a bit. I had entered a couple of Contacts manually in the BB, prior to installing BB Desktop Software and trying to sync, so I thought that might be the problem with a couple of records, and deleted them on the 9800, did a backup, and a sync with the Advanced Setting checked for Replace all contacts on this BlackBerry device, then synched ... the records are still not bringing over all the information on these two records.
Should I delete all of my Contacts on the BB and try to sync again?
Thanks for your advice
That is what I did. The SIM was from my previous Samsung phone and there must have been something going on that prevented the Contacts from updating properly. I deleted every Contact entry on the SIM card and then it updated properly.
In the trials I deleted some entries in the BB [not SIM] Contacts in the hope that they would then be copied fully from the Mac. However, as previously warned that deleted the entries in my Mac Address book. It seems there is no one-way update of the phone from the Mac, and changes on the BB are applied to the Mac first. Thankfully I had all of my Address Book from the Mac duplicated in iCloud so was able to recover.
Can't Synch Mountain Lion to 9790
I can't synch at all ... I have Macbook Pro/Mountain Lion, BDM 22.214.171.124 and there is no way I have been able to synch my contacts and calendar from MBP to BB 9790; have tried disconnecting iCloud, but still no joy - ┐What am I missing?"
New problem(s) with synch - 1. doesn'tt download all of the contacts in the selected Mac Contact list; and the contacts downloaded are corrupted; BB Link has mixed the names of the contacts, i.e. home number assigned to a (new) contact that has the name of one contact and the last name of another ... mess
Clander works fine both ways, iCloud to BB, BB to iCloud

The Ramonas are the UK's only all girl tribute to the Ramones, one of the most influential punk rock bands in history.
The band were formed in honour of the Ramones back in 2004, by Clare Pproduct (Guitarist in UK cult rock band AntiProduct and bass player in Marky Ramones blitzkrieg) after having backed up Marky Ramone as Johnny at the Underworld in England.
The Ramonas capture the magic which the Ramones had in their early days with their intense on stage energy levels whilst looking much better than Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee or Marky ever did.
The girls have toured all around the UK & Europe and guarantee a good night out... Unfortunately it will never be possible to see the Ramones live again so the Ramonas are the next best thing for any punk rock fan.


text: The Party Leader Dies, Game Over wiki last edited by Deusoma on 04/02/15 05:40PM View full history OverviewProtect the leader or else!In most standard party-based RPGs, the player is typically allowed to continue progressing as long as at least one member of the player's party is still standing. A Game Over doesn't normally result unless all active party members have had their Hit Points reduced to zero. However, such is not the case in all RPGs with party systems. In some games, a Game Over will occur when the party's designated leader is taken down, no matter the state of the rest of the player's characters.Examples of UseThis feature is often used in strategy RPGs that feature permanent character death such as the Fire Emblem series. In a Fire Emblem title, any character that is killed in battle is lost forever; the only way to normally bring such characters back is by reloading a previous save file. Due to the nature of the game's progression, one of the most standard ways in which a Game Over can occur in the series if if the battle's designated leader, most commonly the game's central protagonist (ex: Marth in Shadow Dragon, Ike in Path of Radiance) is killed in battle. Should this occur, the player has no choice but to start the battle over.Final Fantasy XIII allows players to choose the party leader.Other games that such a feature may be present in are RPGs that limit the player's direct control to the lead character. In games such as Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 and Final Fantasy XIII, the player's input during battles is limited to issuing direct commands for the party leader while the other party members are directed by an AI. When party members other than the leader fall in battle, they may be revived as often as necessary, pending the availability of life restoration items and spells. However, no matter what items the player may have in stock or what spells are at the command of the leader's allies, if the leader runs out of Hit Points, the game ends. The same also holds true for games such as Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4, which allow the player to select between direct control of allied party members or allowing the AI to direct them.One slight exception to the above is Xenoblade Chronicles. In this game, the player is once again restricted to direct control over the party leader of a three-character battle party. If the party leader falls, the player will be sent back to the last checkpoint. However, if one of the AI companions is able to heal the party leader within a few seconds, the battle will continue.Due to the nature of this gameplay conceit, a vital component of strategy for the games that utilize it is to ensure that the party leader is always protected and regularly healed.

We catch up with what Reds stars past and present have been getting up to on Twitter during the last week – featuring a bargain hoover and fashion by Jose Enrique.
A busy week for the Reds began with a goalless draw at Swansea City which perhaps should have been a victory. Former Liverpool captain Phil Thompson certainly felt that way.
Nice with a clean sheet and Pepe Reina making crucial saves again. We should have won had the better chances— Phil Thompson (@Phil_Thompson4) November 25, 2012
Meanwhile, one of Thommo's old teammates Kenny Dalglish was throwing his support behind the new Hillsborough single.

One current player was more preoccupied with picking up a cheap bargain.
Currently in comet getting a Hoover on the cheap as they're closing down #bargain— Jonjo Shelvey (@shelveyJ) November 26, 2012
Jose Enrique, meanwhile, was relaxing ahead of the trip to White Hart Lane by spending some time with his family - and he provided visual evidence for his followers.

Hi folks, I hope to shed some light on the world of 'location based services' (LBS) from my point of view. I apologize in advance if my grammatical skills are not perfect and if my typing skills are slower than my thoughts. I intend for this blog to share important news about LBS and my non-expert opinion on that news. Disclaimer: I am a co-founder of an Internet start-up that is in the LBS space in a slightly different way than Facebook or Foursquare. The company is called Guest List Nation and it was started in December 2009 by my long-time business partner of 12 years (Trevor Hewitt, CEO), a brilliant tech guru (Michael, CTO), our jack-of-all-trades (Dennis Petrou, COO) and myself as the CMO. Such lofty titles for a 4 person company but why not! Trevor, Dennis and I have been involved in the San Francisco nightlife space for 12 years, Michael has spent the last 5 years attempting to modernize the industry through his efforts with a website called eVelvetRope. As a whole we realized the nightlife industry systems are antiquated and we started Guest List Nation in response to the reality that a clipboard, pen and a clicker were the highest forms of technology.
Our vision was to create an automated system for people to RSVP to nightlife events. After 3 months of planning, designing and meetings we had our first version of the mobile application for the iPhone finalized and approved for placement on the iTunes store. The application is free to download and offers the user access to 70 or so free guest list offers in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Las Vegas and Phoenix. The 1.0 version allowed the user to RSVP to the guest list offer of their choice and our system compiled the RSVP list and emailed it to the nightclub's manager before the nightclub opened for business.
Wow, we did it…we modernized the old system used by a nightclub or did we? Wait, there is still a list at the front door, the host has to find your name and cross it off the list and grant you entry. Well it is a step in the right direction but we are not there yet. So we spend the next 3 months working on a GPS-verified redemption system. In August, 2010 we launched version 2.o for the iPhone application and the Android version is days away from launch as well. Here is where our location based service is utilized: the user clicks on a particular RSVP when they arrive at the nightclub, we check their location (check-in), we verify the person is indeed at the nightclub and we then deliver a free admission ticket on the application's screen which includes their name, number of guests, the nightclub address, date, time, etc…
I'm calling this a moral victory as we eliminated the clipboard and the pen. However, the clicker still exists!
I do not intend to use this blog as a commercial for my application, instead I wanted to show you the experiences that shape my writing here. I'd love to learn more about your perspective on location based services via a few short polls:
Thank you for reading and your input! I look forward to creating a lively, informative and opinionated forum for all here.

Hey, did you hear Beyoncé put out a surprise album? Queen Bey majorly shakes up this week's Top Current Albums chart with her iTunes exclusive, which shattered records at the online retailer and delivered a lump of coal to last week's chart champ Garth Brooks. Here's everything you need to know about Beyoncé as well as the rest of this week's chart news:
Beyoncé soars: And Garth Brooks thought he was going to coast to another week at No. 1. That all changed at midnight on Dec. 13, when Beyoncé decided to drop an album on iTunes out of the clear blue (ivy). The numbers have been touted everywhere, but here they are again: Domestically, Bey's self-titled set sold 617,000 downloads in just three days and worldwide, the figure was 829,000; both are iTunes records. That marks Beyoncé's career best start, topping her previous best, B'Day, which began with 541,000. (Her last album, 2011's 4, opened with 310,000). It also marks the year's fourth largest debut, behind Justin Timberlake's first The 20/20 Experience (968,000), Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (792,000) and Drake's Nothing Was the Same (658,000). So yeah, it worked.
Britney falls: With all the news surrounding Beyoncé's surprise album, Britney Spears' Britney Jean became the definition of "yesterday's news."

Grey's Anatomy Season 8 Finale Spoiler: New "Plane Crash Death" Rumor
As if we weren't worried enough about the Grey's Anatomy Season 8 finale, William Keck of TV Guide has hinted at some truly tragic details unfolding by the time the season is through.
Read spoilers at your own risk! For more on Wetpaint Entertainment's philosophy on spoilers, click here.
Following the news that at least one major player on Grey's will not be returning for Season 9, now Keck is reporting that there will probably be a major disaster involving planes, fire, and death in the finale.
He tweets, "finale title 'Flight' + fire trucks on set + what I know = me worried about possible plane crash death."
Will the cast member not returning be killed off in this episode? Does that mean more than one character gets killed off by the end?
Oh, and as if that wasn't enough potential drama for you, Shonda's response to a Calzona question left him nervous. Keck wrote, "shonda told me she couldn't tell me anything about Calzona - which got me a little worried."
You think?! Are you prepared for such a tragedy in only a few weeks? Or are you holding out hope that Keck's guesses are wrong? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.
Catch a new episode of Grey's Anatomy on Thursday, April 26 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Freshman Brandon Stephens went 3-for-4 and scored two runs Friday.
April 8, 2011
OXFORD, MISS.----The 30th-ranked Georgia Bulldogs won their sixth straight SEC contest, posting a 9-8 road win over Ole Miss Friday in front of a crowd of 9,103.
The Bulldogs have won six in a row to improve to 17-14 overall and 7-3 in league play while the Rebels dropped to 19-12, 4-6 in the SEC. Georgia overcame an early 3-0 deficit and took the lead for good in the fourth. Junior Tyler Maloof notched his national-leading 12th save but not before the Rebels made some noise in the final frame.
"We almost gave it away in the first inning, we made several mistakes and gave up three runs on one hit," said Georgia coach David Perno. "We came right back and got back in it in the middle innings and got a number of two-out hits and then some big defensive plays including from Conor Welton, who we just put in the game in the eighth and he makes two good catches. We got through it, and now we have a chance to win a series after a big Friday win.
"We've done a good job with the lead this year, we're used to playing in close games,"said Perno. "This is a neat environment, and our guys enjoy playing here. We started slow, it was hot, but we adjusted and kept our momentum."
Trailing 3-0 in the third, Georgia got a pair of two-out, run-scoring singles from Curt Powell and Zach Cone off Matt Crouse. Then in the fourth, junior Levi Hyams made it 4-3 Bulldogs with a two-out, two-run single, bringing home Jonathan Hester and Brandon Stephens (3-for-4) Georgia extended its lead to 6-3 in the fifth as Cone provided an RBI-double and scored on the play after the Rebels made a couple of errors. Ole Miss got one back in the fifth and the teams traded runs in the sixth. In the seventh, Tanner Mathis collected an RBI to make it 7-6. Both teams went to the bullpen in the eighth inning.
Wood got the win to move his record to 4-3, scattering six runs (only three earned) on six hits while Crouse (6-2) allowed eight runs (six earned) on 10 hits with two walks and two strikeouts in the loss. Crouse started the eighth, and his first pitch to Hester was launched over the left field wall. It was his fourth home run and gave Georgia an 8-6 lead. Bulldog junior Blake Dieterich pitched a scoreless eighth with two nice catches by Welton and Maloof came on in the ninth. Georgia got an insurance run in the ninth that proved to be very big. Welton delivered a two-out, run-scoring single to plate Cone who drew a walk and went to second on a stolen base.
Maloof issued a leadoff walk to Miles Hamblin and then Jordan Poole smashed his first career home run, a two-run shot to trim the deficit to 9-8. However after a visit to the mound, Maloof battled back to retire the next three Rebels to preserve the victory. Georgia now has saves in 14 of its 17 wins this year.
"Those leadoff walks will get you, and it got Tyler but then he settled in and took care of business like he has all year in save situations," Perno added.
The series continues Saturday with first pitch slated for 3:06 p.m. ET, and the game will be televised by SportSouth. Georgia will start junior right-hander Michael Palazzone (4-1, 2.14 ERA) while the Rebels will counter with junior right-hander David Goforth (1-4, 3.32 ERA).

RALEIGH, North Carolina — Another annual meeting of the North Carolina General Assembly is poised again to end late in the summer, with lawmakers dug in for negotiations on the state budget, incentives and Medicaid.
But will they stay even longer?
No one really knows when the session will end because North Carolina doesn't set formal restrictions on how long the House and Senate can meet in any year. It's one of 11 similar states.
Some lawmakers argue mandating session length limits in the law would bring predictability for lawmakers seeking business and personal time back home. Others suggest a full-time Legislature might be more appropriate for a state of 10 million people — the ninth largest in the country.
Senate leader Phil Berger says setting session limits is probably most politically feasible.

Heavenly Food
Went to this place with my cousins when they were in Hyderabad. They had come across it during their Hyderabad trip research and so we planned for a lunch. We landed at the restaurant after a tiring visit to Charminar and the nearby bangle market. It was a bit difficult to locate and we had to ask around. Nevertheless, we found our way. As soon as we looked at the restaurant, our first thoughts were if this was the famed Shadab. The exterior was poorly maintained. Surely, it was the place. We entered the restaurant and opted for the a/c seating.
The interiors are non-existent and the ambiance is nothing to speak of. The service is very functional and quick. However, the main objective is fast turnover of guests and not customer services. So don't be surprised if your server will seem rushed or make faces if you ask too many questions.
No prize for guessing what is the star of the show. Its the food. To say that its lip smacking will be an under-statement. We had ordered chicken biryani, a mutton curry and a chicken curry along with naans. All were stuff made out of of heaven. The taste was so over-powering that we forgot where we were. We really got transformed into this food land with different spices hitting our taste buds.
However, we felt the price was a bit too high given the whole set-up. But at the end, the food justifies all. Definitely a must go.
Best biryani - worst ambinace,pathetic washrooms
I've tried every other biryani in the city, but nothing is as good as shadab. I ordered a mutton biryani; the grain was long, the rice fragrant; the mutton was on the bone, soft and aromatic in the 80:20, rice: mutton ratio. Ample quantity and amazing taste. Highly recommended for visitors to Hyderabad who don't have the time and energy to try various joints to get the best biryani.
The cons:
Worst toilet room imaginable
Poorly maintained and congested wash area
Poor seating, not a great ambiance
ACs not working as on 8th July 2013, damn humid and smelly; they were using large fans to make it breezy.
I would rate the food 4 on 5 but 0 for the toilet and washroom facilities. If you are out with a family I wouldn't recommend a joint that has poor washroom or toilet facilities in spite of great food.
so, my over all rating would be a average of both that is 0+4/10 that makes it 4/10.

Great flavour of Chaar Minar
I have been to Shahdab Hotel during Ramzan and have been waiting to visit them again. My ratings and review for this place purely goes for its food and taste as this is one of those eat outs where you go only for taste not to enjoy a great ambiance.
The menu has a variety of items listed with reasonable prices considering the portions they serve. In every visit, I have only had the opportunity to taste their chicken and mutton biryani.
One portion comes in a big plate with big country chicken/ mutton pieces and this quantity is good enough for two. The biryani is absolutely aromatic and flavorful. The taste of ghee mixes all the flavors well and it leaves you mesmerized and wanting to have more.
Fortunately I will be going there soon next weekend with my fellow foodie friends. I will always keep going back to Shahdab for its biryani.
You guys are doing a great job!!
Service:4/5 (quick and prompt cannot expect hospitality at such places)
Ambiance: 1/5 (not a place for ambiance but a great place for some great food)
Value for Money: Absolutely yes

Awesome Kebabs and Biryani ! !
I used to be here whenever any guest comes to our house, as Charminar's Lad Bazzar is a must visit for them to shop for the best ladies accessories. So we used to leave them there along with my mom and visit here for having Biryani, as you know ladies would take decades to do shopping. It is close to High court and you would see lots of Black coat folks during daytime.
The moment you reach near to this place you can feel the aroma in the air and you need not search for address, hahaa......
In starters my favourites are Chicken Roast, Mutton Chilly Fry, Noori Kebab, Reshmi Kebab (It is one of the best) and Boti Kebab (simply yummy). In gravy section Chicken Tikka Masala and Dum Ka Chicken are ultimate. Must have is Mutton biryani, it is one of the few places where you get boneless and good quantity of mutton in the biryani. They also serve good nanas and other bread items. I never tried their Sea food dishes as I feel it's simply waste of time and money having least specialized dishes.
They make good haleem and it is available throughout the year. After having Haleem, it is imperative for me to always conclude with a cold Faluda. I simply adore their faluda, it is still the same as it was earlier.
The response from the servers would be not be gentle and they will not improve. Ambiance has not changed since ages it is as simple as ever typical Hyderabadi Iranian cafe style. They also have A/c section for those who what to have some peace of mind while relishing on food.
Pricing is just fine. Parking is a hell, especially during afternoons and early evenings but during nights it is manageable. Visit here only if you want to relish quality non-veg cuisine ONLY.
Ambiance 2.5/5
Food Quantity 4/5
Food Quality 4.5/5
Pricing 4/5

I had gone to Shadab with truckloads of expectations. After all, if a restaurant has the reputation of serving the best biryani in Hyderabad there are bound to be expectations. But I was rather disappointed with everything from the food, the ambiance to the service.
The food was good but nothing special and the place had an awkward smell to it. Also, the parking in the area is such a problem that you would have to think 100 times over before visiting it. All in all not a very good experience.

Hyderabadi Biryani = Shadab
Had the best biryani of my life here. Have had both chicken and mutton biryani.
Taste = 5 / 5
Ambiance = 1 / 5 (Really don't care when the taste is this good)
Hygiene = Couldn't think about it with the mesmerizing smell of biryani
If you ever wanna eat Hyderabadi Biryani, this is THE place to go. Don't read TIMES OF INDIA review and go to Paradise or Hyderabad House, you'll end up having average/below average food.

kacchi ghosh dum biryani
Yes, they are serving it. 3.5 stars out of five. The mutton is little bit elastic and difficult to separate from bone. But you can try once. If lamb (weighing 5 to 6 kg) was used, then the mutton piece would have been tender like chicken. But commercially, it doesn't work out. So they might have used mutton which takes more time to cook even on coals and copper vessels.

It is good- but nithing great
I heard about Shadab from the time I am in Hyderabad (since 2006), and only on this years Independence Day I got a chance to eat there.
We were 7 people- and went there around 10PM. Well, the parking problem is a general problem in the whole area, so i am not commenting about it.
The upstairs section has good dining hall- I even saw somebody eating in traditional dastarkhan!!
We ordered 3 plates of biriyani (mutton). The biriyani tasted good- but nothing more. I mean, I have heard so many things about this place- so well, in one sense, it did disappoint me. The portions are also not like other places. We had 4 biriyanis and could finish it off (and we are not that voracious eaters and already had one plate of haleem each).

4 Star Rating for Food ONLY
Much talked about and despite many decades in HYD, it was the 1st time I visited Shadab for lunch - the Fish Biryani is something to die for (4-stars). BUT everything else is 1-star .....
Heard their other Biryanis good too - perhaps will get them as a take-away one day ...
February 08,2011
Finally made it to this place.
2 of us went to have biryani here on a saturday afternoon.We first went upto the 1st floor which is the best dining section they have but decided to dine in the non ac mosquito infested section(not the best ambience here) because the wait was too long and we were really hungry.
We started off with the Chicken Biryani which was so so.Then came the Mutton which was spectacular.Tender pieces of mutton,nicely spiced and cooked to perfection,the rice too was cooked pretty well.
240 bucks for 2 large portions of biryani,this place is a steal people.

Stale and tasteless food, used finger-bowl
After hearing about this place from friends, we went on a Sunday evening for dinner. We ordered mutton seekh kebab, pahadi chicken tikka and rejala mutton curry- all of which the waiter recommendd. The seek kebab was very dry, and served luke warm - taste was barely passable. We think it was stale. Same for the chicken tikka. Meat was dry and flavourless. We asked the waiter to replace the dish, which he did. It was marginally better then, but I don't think the meat was marinated. The mutton curry was average. We did not even finish half of it-lacked flavour. We ordered 3 items, hoping atleast one would be good - but they were all very bad. Service overall was slow and inattentive.
To top it all of, we got served a USED FINGER BOWL! Would have nearly dipped my fingers into it - just noticed in nick of time. If that is the standard of service there, I dread to think about how they prepare food.

The big daddy as far as Biryani is considered
I will go out on a limb and say that this is THE place to have chicken Biryani in Hyderabad. The standards of most of the other then famous Biryani joints have gone done alarmingly but Shadab maintains its standard to date. Amazing aromatic Biryani rich with flavours never experienced along with excellent other side dishes as well.
Highly recommended is the Reshmi Kebab, wrapped in silky and fluffy egg white, where in the chicken pieces simply melt in your mouth. In Pakistani chicken curry you
will get the resemblance of its name once you see the green coloured gravy. Nice spicy dish with boneless chunks of chicken in a rich gravy. Talk of richness and Baghdadi Chicken tops it. Boneless chicken dish with a gravy filled with cashew and butter. A bit on the sweeter side though. Pudina Paratha is very good as well(slightly crisp with butter and mint leaf). Goes well with the curry dishes. Falooda / Lassi / Irani Chai is recommended after your food.
Ambience ain't great but service is excellent. Do not experiment with continental cuisine here. Not very impressive Seekh Kebabs.
In other words, if you want to experience what's eating Hyderabadi Biryani is like there is only one place to go and that is SHADAB.

Poetical Intentions
Poetical Intentions
There was once an American dream
A house a job and a car or three with a cat in the yard
And the yard in Malibu Beach is this dream still out of reach
What is wrong with this picture is the angle of the stream
The entrance of the price list the fortune is too steep
The thing you want for money is my soul
Just let it tremble all away the underneath of tree is fine for a place to lay me
down to sleep just keep the drunks and murderers from me and let me rest in
peace and poverty
Hard at work or hardly working are you holding up that fence by leaning on it are
you concerned at all with the work to hand
What-what-what am eye paying you for where is the thing where is the fun the toil
and sweat is left somewhere else to do today
Eye must begin to win the poverty away to gamble and to theft
To golden gods and goddesses bereft
Eye am a poet with intentions.

Whats the guy who's getting the blow job's name?
"puts my sister to shame" that line is really disturbing fake or not.
me too jhjeeper1 hes so fucking hot with his hung cock
mmmmm i would blow him
A few words of advice for the site coordinator to make your site more believable and subsequently successful: 1. Don't use popular stars such as Rusty Stevens especially those with identifying tats like the one he has of a kiss on his pelvic bone. 2. Use models that look more of the age, he looks more like he's 35 not like a college student, even a college senior. 3. Good preview clips some sites rarely have good clips, keep this up and you have my subscription.
Simply love this video, wish I was the one sucking this guy off. NICE COCK

Product description
Three decades of dialogue, discussion, and debate within the interrelated disciplines of Syro-Palestinian archaeology, ancient Israelite history, and Hebrew Bible over the question of the relevance of the biblical account for reconstructing early Israels history have created the need for a balanced articulation of the issues and their prospective resolutions. This book brings together for the first time and under one cover, a currently emerging centrist paradigm as articulated by two leading figures in the fields of early Israelite archaeology and history. Although Finkelstein and Mazar advocate distinct views of early Israels history, they nevertheless share the position that the material cultural data, the biblical traditions, and the ancient Near Eastern written sources are all significantly relevant to the historical quest for Iron Age Israel. The results of their research are featured in accessible, parallel syntheses of the historical reconstruction of early Israel that facilitate comparison and contrast of their respective interpretations. The historical essays presented here are based on invited lectures delivered in October of 2005 at the Sixth Biennial Colloquium of the International Institute for Secular Humanistic Judaism in Detroit, Michigan.

Mommy1023, I couldn't confirm that before writing this article, but will attempt to do so for a follow-up article. It's a relevant question. Thanks for asking.
A point well-taken, graycat. After I left this accident scene and was driving south on Bay this afternoon, traffic kind of backed up and a northbound driver in the left-turn lane wanted to turn in front of me (I was in the left lane of the two southbound lanes) but I don't think she had a view of what was coming in the right lane on my other side. As it turned out, traffic started moving again so the other driver didn't get a chance to turn left, though her view probably improved once all the southbound traffic was moving again.
Thanks for the on-the-scene observation, jdhdjd. Appreciate it.
I appreciate the question. The student's race is a basis for the lawsuit, which alleges the strip search is "unlawful discrimination based upon (the student's) race." I will add a line to this story to that effect. Court documents allege the student was the only black player on the football team, and no other player was subjected to a strip search.
Good point, kidder4. Here's the address, and thank you for your interest:
East Washington United Brethren Church
8051 S. Crapo Road
Ashley, MI 48806
Also, an article with photos will appear in Thursday's edition of The Saginaw News.
Good one, kreab. I had to laugh. Trying to keep a sense of humor about this "storm."
Always good to hear a take from the outlying townships, kidder4. Sounds like there's plenty to look after, and then some, out there on the roads.
Thanks for your comment, k1996. While the purchase of "uniforms" (or clothes that comply with any new dress-code restrictions) could make it more costly for some parents, maybe it would make it cheaper for other parents -- those who buy their kids the pricier stuff with popular name-brand logos or emblems on them.
Appreciate your comment, Mickeythecat. Some Saginaw County school districts have begun sharing administrators to do certain jobs. It will be interesting to see how many more of these arrangements occur in the coming months. Maybe one person could serve as athletic director for two school districts, for example.
Sounds like you did about everything you could do, tuscolacty. Thanks for sharing your story; it can only help others who are considering their own searches for stolen items.
School-board members are stressing a new academic focus, SoozieQue, at Ricker Middle School, which will receive a new name when it takes on additional grades next school year. Thanks for your comment. It will be interesting to watch how the new approach plays out.
I'd be proud, too, Dawn. Thanks for your comment.
You're welcome, buyours. I appreciate the feedback.
Thanks for bringing another perspective to the conversation, PCRose. By the looks of it, SOME of the wood is not actually IN the creek, but sitting on top of other wood or debris that is in the stream. If one stands (or stops a car) on the Geddes Road bridge over the Swan Creek and looks to the north, he or she gets a pretty good view of it.
Thanks, x47racecar. It will be interesting to see if this array of wood grows or shrinks in coming months. Wouldn't a snowmobile ride on a frozen creek, covered with snow, constitute a "Pure Michigan" experience?
As I understand it, desmone, county officials are still trying to determine that there IS an ice jam near that spot (where Fergus Road crosses the Shiawassee River). Almost all rivers in southeast Michigan are BELOW flood stage right now, so it's a mystery why the Shiawassee, at that particular spot, is above "flood stage." It could be a malfunctioning gauge measuring the river level incorrectly, according to National Weather Service officials who think the situation is due instead to an ice jam.
I think remembering a person's name is a small but powerful way to tell someone he or she matters. Appreciate the comment, bowend.
Thanks for the poignant thought, shadowsaber. Maybe we all could learn from a person with that kind of attitude.
Your point about the lawsuit is well-taken, bewildered. It's something we plan to follow if the case makes it into court, though we'll also report on how the lawsuit is resolved if it doesn't reach that stage.
Appreciate your take on things, michimom. That's another way of looking at the situation.

Brad Pitt Teases Angelina Jolie About Bad Breath, Gives Breath Mints For V-Day: Report
Maybe we've tapped into something here.
Channing Tatum said when he first met Jenna Dewan on the set of Step Up, she had "the worst breath." Now Us Weekly is quoting a source close to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who said Brad is getting Angie breath mints called Eat Whatever as a gag gift for Valentine's Day.
"It is sort of a joke — and not," the source said. "He always teases her that she has bad breath." But "he'll also get her something more serious."
Like a more thoughtful lover? Or a better friend who won't blab to the tabloids that she has bad breath? Kidding. But still. Is it that low-carb diet that's giving otherwise sexy people bad breath? Is there a connection? These guys should just be grateful they have amazing ladies by their sides and not even joke about their "flaws" — or the girls just might return the favor.

Snooki and Her Son, Lorenzo, Celebrate Easter Early — Adorable Alert! (PHOTO)
Snooki's precious son, Lorenzo, has had quite an amazing first 7 months. He's hit tons of awesome baby milestones, from finding his feet to having play-dates and starting to giggle. He even had his Baptism recently, a very special day that included a big celebration with family and friends. We can't believe he'll be a year old soon enough, as it feels like just yesterday Snooki and Jionni welcomed him into the world.
So far, Lorenzo's helped his mommy and daddy celebrate a bunch of his first holidays, including Christmas, Valentine's Day, and now Easter!
Naturally, Lorenzo is helping celebrate in the most adorable way possible. Snooki recently added a pic to her Facebook page of Lorenzo sitting in a tiny chair, all smiles in front of a big pink blow-up "Happy Easter" bunny! Aww. It's even cuter that they're celebrating early.
Seriously, we know all babies are cute, but Lorenzo is one of the cutest babies we've ever seen. We suppose it's only natural as he takes after his good-looking guido parents.
What do you think of Lorenzo's latest pic? Share below!

announcement by C.A.M.P
This announcement has been read 5,099 times
For the slim and grim. Invented in 1987 by John Middendorf and originally brought to market as Lowe Balls, these have become the secret weapon of many aid and trad climbers. These little wonders will work in small parallel-sided cracks where the only other option is pounding a piton. Ball Nuts also work in pin scars and small flares where cams simply won't fit. Since they weigh so little, many advanced trad climbers keep a #2 and #3 on their rack at all times.
- Rock Climbing, Aid Climbing
- The smallest active protection in the world
- Colour-coded for fast identification
- Narrow depth fits shallower cracks than traditional camming units

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
The elusive alpha channel remains one of the most misunderstood yet powerful tools in Photoshop. Alpha channels are collections of luminance data that control the transparency of an image, and they inform just about every aspect of Photoshop. As he builds transitional blended layers, fashions a depth map, makes edge adjustments, and takes on extreme channel mixing, Omni Award-winning expert Deke McClelland teaches Photoshop users that where there's a will, there's a way. Photoshop CS3 Channels and Masks: Advanced Techniques covers mapping texture on an image, turning flesh into stone, using vector masks, working with all different channels, creating a rustic edge effect, and much more. Exercise files accompany the tutorials.
Download Deke's customized keyboard layouts for Channels and Masks from the Exercise Files tab."
In this exercise, we are going to generate the Layer mask for highlights layer for this glass. So we are going to see one method for masking glass inside of Photoshop. Make sure that your highlights layer is selected and if you are just joining me incidentally, you can catch right up by opening this image. It's called Highlights & Shadows.psd. It is found inside the 11 Layer masks folder. Go ahead and click on the highlights layer which is currently set to the Screen mode. Now, we are going to be masking the glass using a combination of the Color Range command along with the Gradient tool.
If we were to select the Color Range command right now, so it would base its selection outline on that composite image as well. We don't want that to occur, we don't want these lines from the background layer to be taken into account. So we need to go ahead and switch the highlights layer to the Normal Blend mode by pressing Shift+Alt+N or Shift+Option+N on the Mac, and you can see that we now have the Normal Blend mode up here in the upper left- hand corner of the Layers palette. Also make sure that the Opacity and Fill values are set to a 100%, so that glass layer is fully opaque and the Color Range command will see the glass layer and only the glass layer.
Now, I want you to go up to the Select menu and choose the Color Range command or you can press that keyboard shortcut if you loaded my Deke shortcuts way back in the Preface, and you'll probably see an effect like this, where you see just a handful of pixels against the Black background, incidentally, if you are seeing a Grayscale version of the mask in the larger image window, then I want you to change your Selection Preview setting to None. As we need to be able to see the full RGB version of the image. I am going to go ahead and zoom in on the image by Ctrl+Spacebar clicking right here, that's Command+Spacebar clicking on the Mac. Notice this highlighted edge along the right side of the glass. These represent the hottest highlights inside of this image.
I want you to go ahead and click on that highlighted edge in order to lift those colors, as the base colors for the selection. And incidentally, if you want to make sure you are selecting exactly the right portion of the image, you can press the Caps Lock key, in order to get that precise cursor right there and then click in order to nail that area. And of course the Caps Lock key gets you any number of precise cursors when you are working inside a Photoshop. I am going to turn Caps Lock back off and I am going to go ahead and raise the Fuzziness value to a 140, which I would like you to do as well. And that's all I wanted to do, I don't wanted to lift any other base colors from the image, just that one white. Then raise the Fuzziness value to 140 luminous levels, and you'll end up generating a selection like this.
In order to confirm what it looks like, you can now change the Selection Preview to Grayscale, and you'll see that, that edge, that hot edge is absolutely selected. The bright colors in the upper right region of the image are mostly selected, they are pretty darn, almost entirely 100% selected. And then the Shadows of course are deselected, the Midtones are selected to a lesser extent and so on. Now that we have generated our base selection, go ahead and Click OK in order to display the marching ants inside of the Image window. I am going to zoom out here a little bit, back to the 50% View size, and when I am going to convert these marching ants to a layer mask by clicking on the Layer mask icon down here at the bottom of the Layers palette, and assuming that the highlights layer was active, you just went ahead and added a Layer mask to that highlights layer and you'll get an effect that look something like this on screen.
Now we still have these ultralight highlights appearing in the upper right region of the image, that's no good and we are going to get rid of them using the Gradient tool. So I want you to switch to the Gradient tool here inside of the toolbox. You can get that tool by pressing the G key if you like. Next I want you to switch from a Linear Gradient to a Radial Gradient, and you can do that by clicking on this Radial Gradient option in the Options bar. For those of you who just love keyboard shortcuts who just geek out on the stuff. I am going to tell you, a really great keyboard shortcut. You can switch the style of gradient by pressing the bracket keys. All right, so left bracket goes one way, right bracket goes the other way; just an FYI, just a little bit of sugar from me to you.
Next, we want to switch the kind of gradient that we are going to apply; the color of the gradient to Foreground to Transparent; this one right here. So go ahead and click on it and then press the Enter key or the Return key on the Mac in order to accept that setting. Make sure that black is your foreground color, if it isn't, press the D key and then the X key to make it so. Next, I want you to reduce the Opacity of this gradient to 70%, and finally, notice if we were to start dragging with this Gradient tool right now, we would draw a gradient that's black in the center and translucent on the outside. So we would create a hole in the center of the glass, that's no good.
We want our hole to be out here inside of the background. So I am going to go ahead and undo that modification and turn on the Reverse check box up here in the Options bar, so you draw a gradient from transparency to 70% black. Now, I am going to switch the Full Screen mode here by pressing the F key, and then I am going to drag my glass down a little bit so that I have plenty of head room up here. And I am going to draw from the center of the glass to about here inside of the pace board, do you see that line? And then I am going to release my mouse button in order to draw a gradient that looks like this.
And you can see now, if I would to Alt+ Click or Option+Click on the Layer mask thumbnail, here inside the Layers palette, this is what the Layer mask looks like after I add the gradient, this is what it looked like before. So I just ever so slightly darkened the upper right region of the image. Actually, I ever so slightly darkened all the way around in the concentric circle around the glass, and I darkened the highlights a little bit inside the glass as well, but I just tempered them slightly and I think it actually delivers a really nice result. So let's go ahead and Alt+Click or Option+Click on that Layer mask thumbnail again, to see the composite RGB version of the image. This is before the gradient and this is after the gradient, a very nice improvement and we are focusing just on the highlights inside of the glass, as well as those shadows, so it looks really nice.
The next thing I want to do is, I want to temper those highlights a little bit more, by moving the highlights layer below the glass shadows layer. So I am going to go ahead and drag it underneath like that. Then the highlights become too muted because the shadows are taking priority over the highlights. So I am going to switch to a different Blend mode. I'll press Shift+Alt+S or Shift+Option+S on the Mac and that didn't change anything. Why not? Because my Gradient tool is active. My Gradient tool went ahead and gobbled up the Screen mode. So I'll press Shift+Alt+N or Shift+Option+N on the Mac to switch the mode back to Normal.
Then I will switch the Rectangle Marquee tool and press Shift+Alt+S or Shift+Option+S to change the layer to the Screen mode, that's still not quite enough, so I'll press Shift+ to switch to the Color Dodge mode and then Shift+ to switch to the Linear Dodge mode, and that to me looks really great. So we have a combination of the Linear Dodge and Linear Burn modes working together here and the highlights are modified by a Layer mask, thus successfully masking the glass against its new background.

New York style loft in the heart of Barcelona
An old carpet warehouse, spotted on Shoot 115, retrieves its original splendor after a reform that respects its industrial roots and combines pieces with lots of history with new ones made to measure. This 1,830 square foot (170 square meters) loft is situated in a building in the heart of Barcelona, Spain built more than one century ago, previously a textile workshop. This space has retained the most attractive original structures and has unified them, painting them white: iron support columns that were originally black and wooden beams, cut by a steel rail makes the architecture feel open and airy. Natural light, a key highlight in this incredible loft, penetrates the space from a wall of double-hung windows, mostly originals.

Serious Reads: Milk, by Deborah Valenze
Single-commodity histories are pretty commonplace these days. From salt to tomatoes to honey, it seems that every food item in the grocery store has a special story. In my time, I've read quite a few histories of milk—okay, maybe just two or three, but that still feels like a lot of pages dedicated to an everyday cereal enhancer. But historian Deborah Valenze makes a good case for yet another milk history with her new book Milk: A Local and Global History. More
