17 Feb 2014 Murmurs came from Rod's camp that a reunion of the Faces could occur as early as this year but, as this is the 50th Anniversary of the Small Faces, it's not too likely. It's been chalked up to miscommunication, and there may still be something in the works for down the road, Check here for updates.
7 May 2013 Mac's latest album, Live at the Lucky Lounge, is out now and available here.
14 Apr 2012 Small Faces & Faces were given a tandem induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame tonight at a ceremony held in Cleveland. Surviving members Woody, Mac, and Kenney were in attendance, while Rod cancelled due to ill health (likewise, he wasn't able to attend his solo induction in 1994 due to an earthquake). Mick Hucknall joined on vocals, and Conrad Korsch (currently of Rod's band) filled in for Ronnie on bass.
Congratulations, lads! It's about damned time.
28 Mar 2012 The band are to be inducteed into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 14. link
25 Mar 2012 Mac has totally overhauled his website, redesigning it from scratch. link

21 Aug 2010 Michael Been, the great singer-songwriter and frontman for The Call, died on the 19th. He's one of the first guys I interviewed, backstage at BBC's Paris Studios. His manager waled in, tossed a box on my lap, and said, "guess what that is?" It was a prototype of the first Rockman amp. Just the night before, I'd been sitting at a tube station, buzzing after a gig and waiting for the last train to E&C, listening to my walkman. I thought, "wow, why cant's you plug a guitar into one of these and play along?"
Michael started off playing with bands like Aorta and Lovecraft, alongside other members like Peter Cetera and guys from Cheap Trick. He fronted Fine Wine with remnants of one of my favorite bands, Moby Grape. He then formed The Call, a band that got "heavy rotation", as they say, but never reaped the rewards of their talent.
He'd continued as a solo performer, as well as helping with his son's band, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.While touring with them, he collapsed backstage of a heart attack at Belgium's Pukkelpop festival.
If you've not heard his work, do yourself a favor.
19 Aug 2010 The entire site is moving to yet another server. During the next few hours (up to 72, depending on how lazy your ISP is), the forum may appear to be closed. Feel free to post if it allows you, as no data will be lost.
12 Aug 2010 The Faces Forum is back up. Actually, the site's server went offline permanenty, which conincided brilliantly with the first catastrophic disk failure I've suffered in years. Therefore, we lost a few weeks of posts and new members on the board. Otherwise, the site and forum are peachy-damned-keen.
1 June 2010 The Faces Forum is back up.
31 May 2010 The Faces Forum is down!! After six hours, it went offline. The unexpected spike in traffic nearly knocked the whole site offline, so I've disabled the board and am moving to a larger server. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, so it'll be back in a day or two.
27 May 2010 The Faces Forum is back! After three years, it's fixed. The address is the same (see the "forum" link above), as are usernames and passwords. Email or PM me with any troubles.
26 May 2010 Here's a nice interview bit between the BBC, Kenney, and Ronnie, concerning the reunion: link to BBC
25 May 2010 The Faces Reunion is on!
More info, including box office info, to follow. Official T-shirts?
23 May 2010 The counter is working! Six hours straight! The count is way off, but after 10 years and far more servers, I'm surprised I could get it working at all.
Somebody please help me fix the phpBB forum. It really was the voice of the site.
Also, to those whom submitted links and material to me in the past few months, please email me again. I lost months of emails in this technodrama.
22 May 2010 Slowly recovering lost data from the server move. Search capability is now restored (the search box is on the bottom of the page).
Anybody want to help fix the Forum? I need someone skilled at fixing/updating phpBB. Contact me. Please.
20 May 2010 The site has changed servers recently, which resulted in the loss of recent updates. Reunion recap, recent news, and more on the way.
29 Sept 2009 The Faces will reunite for a one-off charity gig at the Royal Albert Hall on Oct 25th. Bill Wyman will again be standing in for Mr. Lane and, as Rod is out of touch, LV duties will be shared amongst the band and special guest vocalists. Tickets are available from the Royal Albert Hall Box office (020 7589 8212) and the Credit Card hotline (0844 888 9991), as well as www.ticketline.co.uk.

By: Rachel Spotts
Magic City in Rochester's East End neighborhood is re-opening after being temporarily shut down after some violence there.
Bar Operator John Lombardi tells News10NBC they are eager to open back up and that the biggest change you'll see is heightened security. He said, "The security plan is what we needed to revamp."
New changes are visible once you walk inside Magic City. Additions include a new airport-style metal detector, after that, another hand-held metal detector and then a pat down from security guards. Lombardi said, "(Then we have) a very, very high-end computer system that's going to scan all the identification cards." That means there will be a record of everyone who walks inside Magic City.
The club unveiled the new security plan after it was shut down last month by the City.
Commissioner Del Smith announced Thursday the bar has met all the requirements to reopen. Rochester Police did the final walk through this morning and then came the green light under one condition. Smith said, "We have to make sure that we don't have continued incidents of issues where people are not safe in our environment and so they recognize that."
Magic City came under scrutiny after a rash of violence including a shooting that happened in a nearby parking lot back in June. In July, a suspect attacked a customer with a razor but Lombardi says a troubled past doesn't mean the bar can't thrive and says improvements like these prove it. "Wonderful to be able to work with the City, the Mayor's office and the Rochester Police Department on devising and revamping a plan to make Magic City successful and make it a vibrant source of entertainment in the East End district."
Aside from cleaning, the bar operator tells us Magic City is all set to welcome its patrons back Friday night when the doors open at 10 p.m.

How to Ask for a Letter of Recommendation
IMPORTANT: We strongly advise all national scholarship applicants to discuss their choice of recommenders with a National Scholarships Office staff member BEFORE asking for letters. Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or (301) 314-9458.
When you apply for nationally competitive scholarships you will need several letters of recommendation – usually three, but it can be anywhere from two to four or more.
These letters serve a very important purpose in the application process: they allow professors and other mentors – such as internship or community service supervisors, athletic coaches, research supervisors – to share their first-hand impressions about the qualities that make you distinctive intellectually, personally and/or professionally.
For this reason you want to select recommenders who a) know you well and b) can discuss some of your best accomplishments – academic or extracurricular. This can include instructors for courses in which you did some of your best work, and it should include any thesis or research supervisors. This also includes internship and volunteer activity supervisors, and employers who can attest to your leadership or ability to learn and work with others in service and professional environments. The specific choices will often depend on which scholarship you are applying for – another reason to discuss your choices with National Scholarships Office staff.
It is also important to ask your recommender for their support in a thoughtful and respectful way. The more you do to help them understand why the scholarship is important to you and to show them how much you value their support, the easier it will be for them to write an effective letter.
The steps below require a little planning and attention on your part, but will almost certainly result in better letters from your recommenders.
8 Simple Steps for Requesting a Recommendation Letter
Once you've decided to apply for a national scholarship, there are several steps you can take to help your recommenders write you highly effective letters of support.
First, whenever possible make appointments to discuss your scholarship application plans in person (or by phone, if necessary) with your prospective recommenders. If you cannot meet or speak write a clear, informative e-mail. Tell them what scholarship you are applying for, and why, and ask them candidly if they would be willing to write a letter for you.
Second, write a couple of paragraphs for your recommenders describing the nature of the scholarship you are applying for. This should include information about the nature of the award (e.g., study abroad, graduate study, summer internships, etc.) and the broader goals of the scholarship program (e.g., supporting the environment, providing international experiences, promoting scientific careers, etc.).
Third, write a brief statement to give to each recommender summarizing a) why you are applying for the particular scholarship, b) what you hope to accomplish during the scholarship and c) how winning the scholarship would assist you in achieving your educational, service or professional goals. If your application requires a specific project proposal, you should briefly describe your intended project as well.
Fourth, give each recommender an updated resume listing your most recent activities and accomplishments. You might want to call their attention in a separate paragraph to the experiences that you believe make you a well-qualified candidate for the particular scholarship you are applying for. For example, if you are applying for a Fulbright award to teach English in Korea you might highlight your tutoring work for a literacy program in DC, or your coursework on East Asian religion. If you are applying for a science-related award, highlight your research activities or plans, or talk about how you plan to pursue science in the future.
Fifth, it is VERY IMPORTANT to give your recommenders ample time to prepare their letters. Aim to ask them for letters AT LEAST four to six weeks BEFORE recommendations are due.
Sixth, provide them with accurate information about deadlines and submission procedures. If there are forms they should fill out, provide them with those forms. Let them know if the recommendations are to be submitted on-line.
Seventh, it can be extremely helpful if one or more of your recommenders also provide feedback on your application essays or proposals; ask if they would read a draft and provide constructive criticism and suggestions.
Finally, last but not least, don't neglect follow-up! Your recommenders will invest considerable time and thought in preparing your letters, so write them thank you notes and be sure to let them know the outcome of your application. Paper thank you notes or cards are always appreciated!
Again, we strongly advise all national scholarship applicants to discuss their choice of recommenders with the National Scholarships Office staff BEFORE asking for letters. Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or (301) 314-9458 with any questions about selecting or approaching your recommenders.

Foes of NYC soda size limit doubt racial fairnessBy JENNIFER PELTZ
The Associated Press | January 24,2013AP Photo
A man leaves a 7-Eleven store with a Double Gulp drink, in New York. Opponents of the citys limit on the size of sugary drinks are are raising questions of racial fairness alongside other complaints as the novel restriction faces a court test.NEW YORK (AP) Opponents of the citys limit on the size of sugary drinks are raising questions of racial fairness alongside other complaints as the novel restriction faces a court test.
The NAACPs New York state branch and the Hispanic Federation have joined beverage makers and sellers in trying to stop the rule from taking effect March 12. With a hearing set Wednesday, critics are attacking what they call an inconsistent and undemocratic regulation, while city officials and health experts defend it as a pioneering and proper move to fight obesity.
The issue is complex for the minority advocates, especially given obesity rates that are higher than average among blacks and Hispanics, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control. The groups say in court papers theyre concerned about the discrepancy, but the soda rule will unduly harm minority businesses and freedom of choice in low-income communities.
The latest in a line of healthy-eating initiatives during Mayor Michael Bloombergs administration, the beverage rule bars restaurants and many other eateries from selling high-sugar drinks in cups or containers bigger than 16 ounces. Violations could bring $200 fines; the city doesnt plan to start imposing those until June.
The city Board of Health OKd the measure in September. Officials cited the citys rising obesity rate about 24 percent of adults, up from 18 percent in 2002 and pointed to studies linking sugary drinks to weight gain. Care for obesity-related illnesses costs more than $4.7 billion a year citywide, with government programs paying about 60 percent of that, according to city Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Farley.
It would be irresponsible for (the health board) not to act in the face of an epidemic of this proportion, the city says in court papers. The National Association of Local Boards of Health and several public health scholars have backed the citys position in filings of their own.
Opponents portray the regulation as government nagging that turns sugary drinks into a scapegoat when many factors are at play in the nations growing girth.
The American Beverage Association and other groups, including movie theater owners and Korean grocers, sued.
They argue that the first-of-its-kind restriction should have gone before the elected City Council instead of being approved by the Bloomberg-appointed health board.
Five City Council members echo that view in a court filing, saying the Council is the proper forum for balancing the citys myriad interests in matters of public health. The Bloomberg administration counters that the health board, made up of doctors and other health professionals, has the specialized expertise needed to make the call on limiting cola sizes.
The suit also argues the rule is too narrow to be fair. Alcohol, unsweetened juice and milk-based drinks are excluded, as are supermarkets and many convenience stores including 7-Eleven, home of the Big Gulp that arent subject to city health regulations.
The NAACP and the Hispanic Federation, a network of 100 northeastern groups, say minority-owned delis and corner stores will end up at a disadvantage compared to grocery chains.
This sweeping regulation will no doubt burden and disproportionally impact minority-owned businesses at a time when these businesses can least afford it, they said in court papers. They say the city should focus instead on increasing physical education in schools.
During Bloombergs 11-year tenure, the city also has made chain restaurants post calorie counts on their menus and barred artificial trans fats in french fries and other restaurant food.
In general, state and local governments have considerable authority to enact laws intended to protect peoples health and safety, but it remains to be seen how a court will view a portion-size restriction, said Neal Fortin, director, Institute for Food Laws and Regulations at Michigan State University.MORE IN National / World BusinessNEW YORK Yes, your mutual fund may own some Greek stocks.

I caught the eye of a leather dude on a Harley one day. He followed me home where he crept in the back door. Once he found out what I'm into, he wanted to film so I put a hood over his head to shame him and forced him on to his knees to worship my cock and balls. Then I flipped him over the edge of my bed and ate out his hole. It tasted so good as I got him ready for my dick. I slid my cock in balls deep and began to slowly and rhythmically pump his ass, all the while holding on to his harness as he begged for more. Then I shoved a dildo up his ass and made him cum. I pulled out daddy's helper and shoved in my cock just as I was shooting and amazing stream of spooge. A fast and furious fuck for sure. I'm sure he'll be back for more.

Herman Striking Sensor
Wasn't sure where to put this so flipped a coin mods move if necessary, but anyways has anyone got one of these or have experience of using it? Just to clarify I'm talking about this:
It looks cool (even if the guys using it in the video are hopeless) but I'd like to know if it's actually accurate and useful for training.
Style: Judo--
Note: The following are all entirely possibly artifacts of a poor software implementation:
One point looking at that is that the accelerometer they use looks like it may be sampling at a really slow rate which isn't ideal at all, maybe 30 samples per second at a guess. You can easily get into the thousands of samples per second field with a decent accelerometer, that gives a lot more detail about the moment of impact and how each shot moves through the target.
It also appears to be a pretty coarse sensor, all those shots seem to have remarkably consistent readings but looking at them, you'd think that they were fairly different.
The location of sensors is interesting as well, we were thinking about running a student project doing just this but with the sensors located on the wrist and the back of the ankles, four sensors would then probably be able to identify the types of strikes being thrown (Punches, kicks, knees and elbows) and get a sense of the quality of the technique rather than just the force it generates.
Finally, there may be an issue with maxing out the sensors read, those were pretty weak sauce strikes but the readout on them is close to maximum on that graph (although that's possibly a really trivial issue) and notice she says that the device can measure continual light strikes. That's pretty problematic.
On the other hand, the price is reasonable enough.

Style: FormerShotokan,Kickboxing--
As far as I understood the video, this device only measures the acceleration the device experiences. This is not a good indicator to measure the strenght of a punch or kick. This is because an accelerometer does not incorporate the mass (which would be a Newton(=Force)meter since force=mass*acceleration).
Because of that, it can´t differ between a punch only thrown from the shoulder and one where you put your whole weight in.
Such an instument would provide added resistance-force the farther it is pushed, which is not the case here.
Furthermore, the Force of a push is not the best indicator for the quality of a striking-technique, because it in turn does not incorporate the range the force is applied (i.e. it doesn´t include the difference of a punch being stopped on the skin and a punch which is pushed through). So you need Force*Distance which equals energy or work.
Better look for a device to measure the energy applied to a target, or at least use a newtonmeter.
Nonetheless, the device in the video is still useful for ball-sports, since the mass of e.g. a football is constant and no further force is applied after the throw.

Feed Lucas County Children needs new homeWritten by Staff Reports | | email@example.com
By Kevin Moore, Toledo Free Press Staff Writer
Feed Lucas County Children (FLCC), a Toledo nonprofit dedicated bringing meals to impoverished children in Lucas County, recently received word that it would have to relocate from its current headquarters in the Macomber Building on Monroe Street.
FLCC, which has served 1.5 million meals since its founding in 2002, will need to find a new location to replace the 15,000-square-foot space it has rented for the past six years. In the interim, FLCC's leadership has embarked on a fundraising campaign, an unprecedented move in the organization's history, to raise at least $800,000 to renovate and move into an existing building or to build a new facility.
The new owner of the Macomber Building, the Cherry Street Mission, intends to use the space to consolidate the operations of 12 currently separate facilities under one roof. Cherry Street purchased the building from an Oregon state-based investment group in March and inherited FLCC as a renter. The building is in need of several renovations, and Cherry Street began developing a long-term strategic master plan in April.
"We had several conversations with [FLCC], and they asked if they could be included in the renovation plan," said Cherry Street President and Chief Executive Officer Dan Rogers. "We seriously considered this, but determined that based on square footage there was not enough space for both operations. We knew they already had plans to move into a larger space, and that takes time so we wanted to give them a year to do that."
Need growing
As the number of children in Lucas County in need of meals has grown, FLCC's efforts reached their limit this year and the organization announced plans in July to raise up to $1.3 million to build a larger kitchen capable of "slamming the door on child hunger in Lucas County."
"You can't move this size of an operation easily," said FLCC Executive Director Tony Siebeneck. "It is doable, but we would need to find similar facilities — a restaurant or school cafeteria is not nearly large enough — or build. We are settling on one site, but we need funding."
FLCC, which was created to feed hungry children during the summer when school lunch programs were unavailable, now operates year-round using a model in which meals are prepared in the organization's expansive central kitchen and then distributed to 86 sites across Lucas County.
"When we started, we only had two sites," Siebeneck said. "But our operations have consistently doubled in size every year. By prepping and cooking everything in one central location, we have complete control over the quality, consistency and nutrition of our food, all of which is reviewed by a dietitian and meets or exceeds regulations set forth by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). To reach as many kids as possible, we deliver the meals to various distribution points like parks, churches and community centers."
Roughly 200 volunteers prepare, cook, deliver and serve FLCC's meals each day, which can number as high as 7,400. The increase in child hunger over the past decade, according to Siebeneck, is because the number of impoverished people living in Toledo has doubled from 15,000 to more than 30,000 despite the city's overall shrinking population. Confirming these observations, the Brookings Institution released a study in 2011 that ranked Toledo first in the nation for "concentrated poverty."
"It can be too easy to look away from a problem like this, but when I saw that the children of Lucas County were not having their most basic needs met, I knew I needed to do something," said Siebeneck, who left a career as an agronomist to found FLCC. Siebeneck's efforts were recognized regionally in February with the presentation of a Jefferson Award for Public Service, and he was nominated to receive the national Jefferson Award in June.
While in Washington, D.C., FLCC was also recognized by USDA officials as having the potential to serve as a template for future national programs to combat child hunger. "[The USDA] was very interested in studying our food model, specifically. This was not a conference or panel of several like groups; it was just us and them," Siebeneck said. "We are serving more than double the national average of other food programs and that includes those in cities much larger than Toledo. They are aware of a national child hunger problem and they are researching ways to solve it."
"Ninety-three percent of every dollar collected goes directly into the program," said FLCC volunteer Gary Zarembski. "They're a partner with 70 other organizations and they do everything they're able to do on private donations. This is a group that gets it right. I hope the public helps them keep feeding kids in this county."
Siebeneck and his team are now trying to raise $800,000, which will not build the expanded kitchen needed to handle the county's anticipated needs but will rather build a facility comparable to their Macomber kitchen.
"This isn't for anything fancy, just functional. This will get us in a new structure and operational again," Siebeneck said.
Despite the urgency, Siebeneck remains optimistic that FLCC will overcome this obstacle. He cited an already positive public response, including business donations for a double cooking hood and an across-the-board willingness from the majority of Toledo's print, television and radio outlets to raise awareness of their needs.
"The people of Lucas County are good people; we're just trying to get their attention and let them know what we're facing. We have a problem. We also have a solution. We're asking, one time, for help in implementing this solution."

Our View: Less trash in North Carolina
A report issued last week by the North Carolina Division of Waste Management indicated that the state is producing less trash over a span of four years.
The report said that the volume of trash that state residents throw into landfills has reached its lowest level in nearly two decades.
As of June 30, 2012, the state was disposing of 9.4 million tons of trash, which is a 9 percent drop over figures from 1992. That is an average of 0.98 tons of trash disposed per person.
The news is certainly good because it exemplifies the efforts of organizations like SWEEP and the Rutherford County Solid Waste Department and what they do in terms of recycling.
For their work, we say 'good job.'
One reason for the drop in trash output in the state can be tied to the fact that there might be less industry in the state than there was 20 years ago.
The News & Observer reported that one county in the Triangle — Johnson County — had its trash output rose from 0.88 tons to 1.2 tons per year from 2000 to 2010. Conversely, its job base also increased by 20 percent over that same time.
Counties that experienced significant job growth also saw dips in its trash disposal.
While we certainly don't want to take away from the good news that trash production is down across the state significantly, we want to make sure that we put all the factors in perspective.
The state has implemented more waste-stream bans, including ones for plastic bottles, according to Ellen Lorscheider, spokesperson with the Division of Solid Waste.
She told the N&O that the ban has "brought a lot of attention to all disposal bans and disposal of waste in general."
And, we certainly agree with that.
However, as we hopefully pull ourselves out of an economic downturn and start to build more industry in Rutherford County and across the state, we still have to be mindful of things like trash disposal.
We applaud the efforts of groups like SWEEP and the county's Solid Waste department for making the general public aware of recycling initiatives.
But, ultimately, what we do with our trash comes down to an individual choice.
These groups can tell us about all of the initiatives but we have to make the conscious decision to utilize them.
Doing things like recycling will make an immediate impact on our community as a whole. We can each do our part to make Rutherford County beautiful and, thus, make industries want to come here.
It's an individual choice that we all need to be aware of and make for ourselves and our community.

The small Repertory Theatre in
"This is the only thing I've ever wanted to do," Andrews said. "I love performing and sharing the art of magic with people. My show is inherently different, and I work hard to really make it relevant and modern for my audience."
Andrews hosts her one-woman show "Perception" on Saturday nights at The Rep, along with kids' workshops and family performances during the week. And when she's not performing, she focuses on research and development and the historical path of magic.
"There's such a science to magic," Andrews said. "I love learning the background of study — philosophy, science, psychology. There's more to the art of magic than meets the eye."
Andrews is no stranger to South Walton. She was recently awarded a month-long retreat for the Escape To Create program in
"I had so much fun at Escape To Create," Andrews said. "I was literally researching 18-hours a day. I want to give my magic a very modern aesthetic and be aware of what people want out of a performance, and that takes a lot of hard work. But magic is my artistic medium — an outrageously beautiful tool."
Andrews is performing her shows and workshops now through Aug. 2. She's part of The REP's summer season, including a summer short series "Seaside Shorts" and a "Low Country" comedy tour and more. The REP is located at

How Does Chip and PIN Work?
Following Europe's success with the Chip and PIN switch, Canadian Chip and PIN smart cards are replacing traditional magnetic stripe credit cards all across Canada for a more secure way to process transactions.
Chip and PIN smart cards:
- Increase security by embedding data in an advanced microchip instead of a magnetic stripe.
- Replace signature with PIN for a more secure verification process and reduced risk of fraud.
- Make transactions easier, faster and safer for Canadian merchants and consumers.
Using the Canadian Chip and PIN
Making the switch from magnetic strip credit cards to the Chip and PIN smart cards is simple. The only main difference that occurs during the transaction is how the card data is obtained. The Chip and PIN is "dipped" into the terminal rather than "swiped" and the customer is then prompted to enter their secure Personal Identification Number (PIN). Entering and accepting the PIN is not much different than a debit card PIN, and is faster and more secure than providing a signature for verification.
By 2015, Canadian merchants can no longer accept magnetic stripe cards at the point of purchase. Be sure to train your employees to know how to identify and accept the new Chip and PIN smart cards. At BluePay, we offer advanced Chip and PIN technology for our Canadian merchants.

1. Get some ribs and binge on House of Cards
Finally, Netflix is releasing Season 2 of its Kevin Spacey series, House of Cards. Even better, all thirteen of the episodes are available. We suggest picking up some ribs from Sugarfire Smokehouse (9200 Olive Boulevard, Olivette; 314-997-2301) or Bud's Smokehouse (1135 South Big Bend Boulevard, Richmond Heights; 314-781-2345) so you can pretend you are eating all alone at Freddy's, just like Frank Underwood. Add a glass of bourbon, neat, to really bring it home.

Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddleman bags Bolted right up to my kawi vulan classic, hold their shape and nice look. However the mounting instructions lacking. Ask for the H.D. instructions They have pictures and such and work the same on a Kawi. Makes install very easy. Overall I'm happy w/ this product. C.J. CJ - December 19, 2011 (Reno, NV) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddle bags for Harley Davidson Heritage The bags were purchased for a 1997 Harley Heritage. These are very nice bags, made well and look great. The only problem was the instructions. I guess every bike is different and the bags come with various parts to accommodate all kinds of bikes. If you sit back and look at the bike and the parts, you can figure it out. The first bag took about 1/2 hour. We figured it out and the 2nd bag only took 5 minutes. Worth every penny and every minute of your time. Patrick - November 28, 2011 (Lake Havasu City, AZ) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Very Nice Bags. Terrible instructions I installed these bag on a 1997 Hareley Davidson Heritage. The bags looked just like advertised and of good quality. The instructions were - lets say interesting. There is a variation from bike to bike so some may need additional information. There were NO pictures with the instructions. BI only used 1/4 of what came with the bags and they installed very easily. Took me about 20 minutes after I understood what was needed and how it worked. Patrick - November 04, 2011 (Lake Havasu City, AZ) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddleman Saddlebags Perfect saddlebags for my 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Classic. Installation was a breeze with the included mounting hardware. Took less than 1 hour to mount. They look great on the bike and can be quickly removed to go bagless. A quality product through and through. Shipping was fast and I will definitely do business with Motorcycle Superstore again! Chad B. - September 28, 2011 (Denham Springs, LA) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddlemen saddlebags The Saddlemen saddlebags were easy to install and fit perfectly. They go great with the Saddlemen seat. Ken H. - June 02, 2011 (Apple Valley, MN) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddle Bags!!! Well they're finally on the bike!! YEA!! 2 months later, lots of swearing from my mechanic/husband. He can fix a Mercedes, but had a b*** of time getting these to fit my Dyna Low Rider "07". They look real nice on and look like they'll last the life time of the bike. Superstore and Saddlemen did everything they could to help in getting them on. Superstore was great in shipping and customer service. If I was looking to buy again, will be soon, I'll shop here. Thanks. Laffinwich - January 06, 2011 (Delray Bch., FL) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddlemen's Desperado Rigid Mount quick detach Saddlebags These Bags looked great once we finally got them on. The instructions were not very clear and missed some of the steps that you needed to take. Putting the bags on after we finally were able to get the hardware on was not easy either the holes were not totally in the right position and we had to really work to get them on the hardware. Hopefully they will work themselves in after being on for a while. It took three of us to figure out the hardware instructions and we had to take them apart and put them back together a few times. There was a spacer that was suppose to go on the inside of the extension arm so that it did not collapse the plates and that had to be taken apart to put them in after I figured that out upon the hardware being finished or so we thought. Over all they are not bad bags. Worked out great on a 1300+ mile ride a few days later. We were on the road for 6 days and they stayed put through all kinds of weather. Pamela M. - August 20, 2010 (Baroda, MI) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Great product, mounting hardware lacking. I am very happy with the product. the only issue I had was these were listed under Model specific for my Harley. I have a 2007 Dyna Street Bob, the hardware for mounting included 2x3/8 and 2x5/16 thread-all, both front and rear mounting. On my bike the mounting points for both front and rear are 3/8 so I had to jerry rig the initial mounting. I then called the manufacturer to see if I could purchase extra 3/8 mounting hardware, they did send me the hardware free of charge to mount the bags correctly. This is why I rated fit, installation and recommend lower for all the work I had to do to get the product stable on my bike. Once I got all this done I am very happy with the product. Robert - October 16, 2009 (Kirkland, WA) Fit Quality Installation Recommend review of saddleman bags There was a slight mix up in the type of kit I needed, but the customer service straightened it out quickly and got the parts to me very promptly. I am very happy with the bags and they fit and look good. william kammerer - August 10, 2009 (sewanee, TN) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Saddlemen Rigid-Mount Saddlebags w' Quick Detach Perfect saddlebags for my 2009 FXSTC. Very roomy inside. Had to move the rear turn signals back a bit. The quick detach feature is great. In a few seconds, I can drop the bags off when I don't need them. The bike is then transformed back to its classy, "bag-free" appearance. Great product at significantly less cost than the Harley bags that don't come off the bike. Chuck Burton - July 20, 2009 (Carlsbad, NM) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Better than expected At first I was concerned about how model specific they would be as far as installation and looks. When they arrived was very pleased,(first thing I did was measure the hole/grommet span, then went out to the garage and measured my fender bolt span, BINGO!) and installed them after work at 4:00 in the a.m. That's how easy they installed and they look like or better than O.E.M. Only thing was spacers were supposed to be chrome but were plastic, and locks are kind of on the lame side, but all-in-all, well made and look great! Mark D. - April 27, 2009 (Monrovia, IN) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Easy installation and great looks These bags are very easy to install and they look and work great. It is not clear in the description that they have locks on each of the three straps and that they also have a snap on the front and back of the top. All in all a great set of bags!

Trader Vic's in Beverly Hills
The Trader Vic's in Beverly Hills is located in the Beverly Hilton Hotel, which after being owned by Merv Griffin for many years was recently sold. A few small rumors about changes have been bouncing about, and I've just received an anonymous tip that there are plans underway for it to be demolished and replaced with a tower. The anonymous tipster claims to have a connection to an organization involved in the project. Take it all with a grain of salt, but it doesn't sound good. The Beverly Hills Trader Vic's is the oldest of the remaining Trader Vic's, having opened in 1955.

« 'Nightmare On Elm Street' Exclusive Cast & Crew Interview Featurette | The Social Network Trailer »
written by Angelic on July 03, 2010
Filed in Recent News • 1 Comments
Aside from the impending casting of the next Spider-Man, perhaps the most followed piece of upcoming casting might be that of Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher's American remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. This week two names have been added to the already long list of candidates, including South African rapper Yo-Landi Vi$$er and now Nightmare on Elm Street star Rooney Mara.
Of course it should be noted that The Playlist picked this hot tip up from an anonymous source, but it's worth talking about either way. It's no more silly that Yo-Landi Vi$$er's name, that's for sure. Besides, Mara just finished work with director David Fincher on The Social Network, where she is apparently stealing scenes left and right from star Jesse Eisenberg.
Mara and Vi$$er (that just feels silly to type) join a list that includes Carey Mulligan, Ellen Page, Kristen Stewart, Mia Wasikowska, Keira Knightley and several others. In fact, our Cole Abaius put together A Handy User's Guide to Who Wants the Dragon Tattoo for those who haven't been keeping up. At this point the head-spinning effects of this particular rumor mill have impaired my ability to choose which actress I think best for the role. However, I'm not convinced that either of the two ladies joining the mix today have the chops. In short, I'm still in support of Carey Mulligan.

As promised, I cruised over to the Carnegie Deli in midtown Manhattan to put my appetite, and stomach, to the test against "The 'Melo" sandwich, a monstrosity of a creation featuring six pounds of corned beef, pastrami, salami, bacon and Russian dressing.
To prepare for my battle against the beast, I spoke with deli owner Sandy Levine to get inside the mind of the creator and hopefully put a plan of attack in place. I was undoubtedly the underdog, but I wasn't going down without a fight.
Check out my journey against "The 'Melo" in the video below.

From the silky flavor of Good Mother Stallard to the buttery Runner Cannellinis, the most delicious varieties are presented in these pages along with growing tips, flavor notes, stories of their heritage, and beautiful photographs that showcase the unique beauty of each bean.
In reintroducing the best of the New World heirloom beans, Sando has created a sensation, and food-lovers everywhere will relish transforming this humble staple into a celebrated delicacy.
Book News Annotation:
Steve Sando founder of Rancho Gordo, an heirloom bean company in Napa, CA, offers a colorful guide to fifty of his favorite varieties. From the creamy texture of the solid white Alubia Criolla, a runner bean, to the way the small yellow zolofino, a staple in Italy, complements a fine Tuscan olive oil, Sando details the attributes of each in one-page profiles with facing color photos. Also included are an introduction to bean botany, discussion of the importance of conserving heirloom varieties, growing tips, several recipes, and a list of sources of heirloom beans and seeds.

About the Author
In a few short years, Steve Sando has taken the lowly bean from a neglected legume to superstar-status ingredient. Sando's company, Rancho Gordo, grows, imports, and promotes heirloom and heritage varieties while working directly with consumers and chefs like Thomas Keller, Deborah Madison, Paula Wolfert, and David Kinch.
Sando's seed saving, bean production, and marketing efforts provide professional and home chefs with heirloom beans that would otherwise have been lost to history. The beans, along with corn, chiles, and tomatoes, have become key ingredients in the new American food revolution centered in Sando's native San Francisco Bay Area. In fact, Sando and Rancho Gordo were named number two on Saveur Magazine's "The Saveur 100 list for 2008." Bon Appetit magazine declared Sando one of the Hot 10 in the food world of 2009. Food + Wine magazine placed Steve "at the forefront of the current seed-saving movement." Steve's previous book, with Vanessa Barrington, was Heirloom Beans (Chronicle, 2008).
Steve Sando came to agriculture not from the 4H club but from the grocery store. As a frustrated home cook, he decided to grow the ingredients he wanted in his kitchen. At the forefront of neglected ingredients were beans. Although they are an indigenous product of the Americas, the only beans available commercially to most home cooks were pintos, navies, and kidneys. Discovering heirloom beans to be as rich and varied as heirloom tomatoes, Sando almost singlehandedly created the market for these unique and worthwhile legumes. He now grows more than 25 varieties in California and works with small indigenous farmers in Mexico to import their heirloom beans for the U.S. market. He lives in Napa and travels frequently throughout the Americas collecting beans, friends, and adventures.

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
A great all-inclusive resort popular with families, couples and groups
The Hotel Zone is known for its party-oriented hotels, and the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun is one of the best ones for those who want to have some fun in the sun. It is a lively and busy place, with music, free drinks served 24 hours a day, and two popular swim-up bars -- but there are also some quieter areas for those who want to relax in the sun and be pampered.
It is very popular with couples and groups, but the hotel is surprisingly family-friendly, offering a ton of amenities great for kids of all ages, such as a wonderful kids' club, family rooms, a kiddy pool, a teen-oriented nightclub, and kid-friendly menus at the restaurants.
Everything here has the rock-inspired twist, from the rotunda (which has a guitar shape that can be seen from the higher floors) to the hundreds of memorabilia items displayed throughout the property, to the small guitars embroidered on pillows. Even room service has its own rocker touch: guests can borrow one of the hotel's Fender guitars and learn the basics with one of the video lessons that can be ordered to be delivered to the room at no extra charge.
Ocean view rooms are the most popular of all the room types offered here, but for killer sunset views guests might want to book a lagoon view unit.
Right on a wonderful sandy beach in the heart of the Hotel Zone -- but far from downtown Cancun and the airport
The Hard Rock Hotel Cancun sits on a stunning white-sand beach with turquoise waters in the heart of the hopping Hotel Zone, close to shops, restaurants and its tourist-oriented nightlife.
Mostly all-inclusive, self-contained resorts make up the Hotel Zone -- as do the area's most popular bars and nightclubs, making this more a "party zone" than a hotel zone. Visitors don't come to this part of Cancun for the sights -- there are none other than the popular beaches and the nightlife. The Hotel Zone is one long stretch of white sand lined with hotels and businesses that cater exclusively to tourists -- the locals live and play in the more culture-rich downtown area (known as Ciudad Cancun), which is a short drive away.
Trendy, attractive rooms with great amenities and views
The Hard Rock features 598 contemporary rooms with attractive, bright decor (think: blue accent walls, large textured headboards in light pink shades, lounge-style lamps, and music-inspired artwork on walls) and great amenities that include flat-screen LCD TVs, iPod docks, free Wi-Fi and double jetted tubs. For great sunset views pick a lagoon view room (Deluxe Gold, Deluxe Family and some Rock Suite Platinum).
There are several room types to choose from, and a few subcategories within each type, depending on views and extra perks. For families, the hotel features several Deluxe Family rooms, which are two Deluxe Gold rooms connected through an in-room door. These rooms feature a ton of kid-friendly perks, including Xbox 360s, L'Oreal kids' toiletries, beach kits, and games. Diamond level rooms feature a few extras, including upgraded liquor brands in the room, DVD players, aromatherapy and pillow menus, a beach bag, two 25-minute massages at the spa, an espresso machine, a special room service menu, and ocean views.
It feels like a party hotel, but the Hard Rock offers a ton of amenities for kids as well.
Five restaurants serving international cuisine
On a gorgeous white-sand beach with plenty of loungers, and bar service
The hotel's beach is a stunning stretch of fine, white sand and turquoise waters. There are plenty of loungers and a few cabanas, as well as a beach volleyball court, non-motorized water sports, and bar service.
A large free-form infinity pool overlooking the beach, and two smaller, quieter rooftop plunge pools
The hotel offers a stunning free-form infinity pool overlooking the beach, with tons of loungers, bar service, a couple of whirlpools, and two swim-up bars. The pool is the busiest area in the hotel during the day, but only one side of it has loud music and entertainment. Those who want to relax might want to get a lounger on the southern side of the pool, which also features a swim-up bar, but is somewhat quieter.
For an even more relaxing day, the hotel offers two large round plunge pools on the terraces overlooking the main pool area and the beach. They're not deep or big enough for swimming laps -- and it's the first part of the hotel that is covered by the shadow of the building in the afternoon -- but they are great for a dip while sunbathing, and also offer bar service.
Bright and airy fitness center in a detached building adjacent to the tennis courts
The hotel features a nice fitness center with a wide range of machines, both cardio and strength-training. It is housed in a separate building with huge wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows, located adjacent to the two tennis courts. There is a personal trainer on-site, as well as free weights, flat-screen TVs, free bottled water, free use of towels, and fresh fruit.
The Rock Spa is a relaxing space with several treatment rooms and an outdoor palapa.
The Rock Spa is a relaxing and trendy space with walls painted the color of the Caribbean, and stylish decor in different blue, white and brown hues.
The hotel has five casual bars, including two-swim up ones.
One of the most comprehensive all-inclusive packages around
Almost everything is included in the all-inclusive rate
With a gorgeous infinity pool featuring ocean views and two popular swim-up bars, five restaurants serving international cuisine, live entertainment, a great spa, and a wonderful kids' club, the Hard Rock screams "all-inclusive Cancun megaresort". All rooms feature contemporary decor with rock-n-roll-style twists, open bathrooms with double jetted tubs, balconies with either ocean or lagoon views, and modern amenities -- including flat-screen TVs and iPod docks. It's a solid choice for couples and groups, but families should note that it can get rowdy at times, especially in the swim-up bar areas.

Yesterday, we got some of our first looks at the Motorola RAZR HD. There wasn't much to be seen except a nice looking display and a back plate reminiscent to an ugly Christmas sweater.
We expected Verizon's version, which should come to market as the Motorola DROID RAZR HD, to look nearly identical, and thanks to a new leak we can now confirm that.
The only difference we can see is the absence of a couple of unsightly holes on the international version (and since that is just a test unit we imagine those won't appear at retail).
Verizon's version is clearly donned with the 4G LTE logo Verizon tends to use on its smartphones. We're still waiting on concrete details regarding the device's specs but at least it looks presentable aesthetically. [DroidForums, thanks Scott!]

The North Europeans won 35-17 and made it to the final by beating France in the semi-finals.
The combined side of Great Britain proved to be the best team at the tournament and also beat the South Africans in pool play on day one.
That was the only defeat the side suffered who then scored a couple of big wins over the likes of Malaysia, Mexico and Portugal afterwards.
In the semi-finals earlier on Friday, the pace of the South Africans proved too much for Belgium, one of the surprise teams of the tournament.
Jamba Ulengo (2), Andrè Smith (2), Philip de Wet and Hayden de Villiers all scored tries in the 40-5 romp, with Smith converting five of those.
South Africa's results:
Day one 11 July – beat Italy 26-5, lost Great Britain 26-14, beat Malaysia 45-19 (all pool B)
Day two 12 July – beat Mexico 72-0 (pool B), beat Portugal 56-7 (quarter-finals)

Celtics Draft Johnson and Moore
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Michael Johnson.
The Boston Celtics seem to have acquired depth, experience, and a pinch of chemistry during last night's annual NBA Draft. In a rarely seen move, the Celtics drafted two players from the same college squad, JaJuan Johnson, and E'Twaun Moore of the Purdue Boilermakers. Johnson, a 6-10 and 220lbs forward, provides the C's some with much needed size. He had a very successful college campaign...

There's definitely less of a consensus to me when it comes to the 6-10 portion of the the top picks mainly due to PPR (points per reception) values that can fluctuate their overall value. Also, there are times when many fantasy managers will reach f...

However, the Giants, like only the Giants can do, get back up, dust off their shoulders, and just play ball. Last night, Eli Whiteside had one of his better games with a two-run triple and an RBI single for the Giant...

Should Georgia run more spread offense?
Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Brenden Hull.
This is an interesting question, and one that will certainly be brought up again before the end of next season: With the offensive tools that Georgia currently has on its roster, should the team run more spread offense in addition to the pro set? On the surface, it seems like a great idea. Aaron Murray flashed his running ability multiple times last season, recording at least 30 rushing yards i...

2011 Chicago Blackhawks Draft Preview
Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Anna Santiago.
Physicality is the one aspect of the Chicago Blackhawk that was glaringly absent in the 2010-2011 season. But a good chunk of the team's cap space is designated to keeping defensemen Duncan Keith, Brian Campbell, Brent Seabrook, and Niklas Hjalmarsson so it won't be likely that any major changes will be seen on the defensive end. In terms of forwards, the Hawks have several promising players in...

This is a great resource of concepts and challenging problems that is useful for teaching and exploring infinite series at any level, in calculus, in analysis, or as preparation for the Putnam Examination.
— David Bressoud, DeWitt Wallace Professor, Macalester College
This is an introductory treatment of infinite series of real numbers, bringing the reader from basic definitions and tests to advanced results. An up-to-date presentation is given, making infinite series accessible, interesting, and useful to a wide audience, including students, teachers, and researchers.
In its most basic setting, infinite series is the vehicle mathematicians use to extend finite addition to "infinite addition." Real Infinite Series presents elementary and advanced tests for convergence or divergence, information about the harmonic series, the alternating harmonic series, and closely related series. One chapter offers 107 concise, crisp, surprising results about infinite series. Recognizing the interest in problem solving that abounds with students of mathematics, the authors devote a chapter to problems on infinite series, and solutions, which appeared on the annual William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition.
The lighter side of infinite series is treated in the concluding chapter where three puzzles, eighteen visuals (what Martin Gardner calls "look-see" diagrams), and several fallacious proofs are made available.
Three appendices provide a listing of true or false statements, answers to why the harmonic series is so named, and an extensive list of published works devoted entirely or partially to infinite series.

What age are you?
I'm 25 years old.
Where do you live?
I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland with my partner and my daschund. Although we are on the island of Ireland we are part of the UK – so most of the shops I buy from are typical UK high street shops.
What is your dress size and how tall are you?
UK 16/18. It really depends on the shop! I'm 5"1 (and a half).
What does body positive mean and why do you identify your blog as a body positive blog?
As far as I see it being body positive is pretty simply not being critical of yours or anyone else's body. It's avoiding terms like "real women" (absolute nonsense term) and realizing that every body is real and every person has the right to feel comfortable in their own skin and dictate what they will wear and how they feel about their body. I don't care for fashion rules, I will wear stripes if I want to wear stripes and if Gok Wan tries to tell me I shouldn't well he can get lost to be quite honest.
Where do you usually shop?
I live on a tight budget so it's all UK high street for me really. I buy most of my clothes from New Look, Primark, River Island, ASOS etc. I love Topshop but they only go to a 16 (something I take issue with) so it depends on what the fit of the item is like. I buy most of my jewellery from Topshop and online.
Uni and Work
What did you study and where?
I have a BA Hons degree in Film Studies with a Minor in Sociology, and I just graduated from my Masters degree in Film & Visual studies both at Queen's University Belfast. My writing was focused on gender and sexuality in film. My BA dissertation was on representations of women in films with female directors, focusing on Sofia Coppola and Jane Campion. My MA dissertation was on the representation of sexual violence in film, with an extensive focus on the films of Lars von Trier.
Where do you work?
I run my own bakery company, The Lily Pink Bakery, in Belfast. I work from home baking for birthdays, weddings, any occasion really. I also have a market stall at St George's Market on Sundays, and I supply some local businesses with my cupcakes for resale.
This is my full time job and passion.
This is my full time job and passion.
What camera do you use?
I use a Canon 1000D or my Fuji X100. I don't claim to have any photographic expertise, I just know my camera and I know what I like.
What do you use to edit your photos?
Photoshop Lightroom. X100 photos require very little editing, usually I just adjust the exposure and add a film.
How did you get followers on your blog?
It didn't happen overnight, I've been blogging for 5 years on blogger and 10 on livejournal before that. You can't expect to start a blog and get followers right away. The blogging community is just that, a community – and the best way to gain readers is to interact with other bloggers. Be active, read lots of blogs and comment, tweet, get to know people. Help other bloggers out, and don't see anyone as competition. I've made a lot of friends through blogging, and that's one of the most important aspects for me.
Do you make money or get a lot of free stuff through blogging?
I've never made money from blogging. I occasionally get offered items for free to review but I turn most of them down because I don't want to recommend something I wouldn't pay for or think is overpriced, or if it's something I don't believe in. You wouldn't believe the amount of companies who ask me to accept clothes to review that don't go above a size 14. That's just not going to happen. I won't endorse a company that I or my readers couldn't buy from.No, paid or not. Unless I am going on holiday and actively recruiting guest bloggers I don't accept them.
