The Samsung Galaxy S2 was no doubt the hottest Android phone of this year. The 4.3-inch Super-AMOLED Plus screen, the Exynos 4210 SoC, 1GB of RAM, 8MP camera in a sleek 8.49mm package was enough for more than 10 million people to buy it, and make it the fastest selling phone from Samsung ever.
When Samsung had originally announced the Galaxy S2, it had stated that in some regions of the world it would be selling the Galaxy S2 with a different internal configuration or with a S-LCD screen. While Samsung did produce quite a few different variants of the Galaxy S2, they all had the Exynos SoC and the beautiful Super-AMOLED Plus display. These different variants had NFC and/or different cellular radio compared to the European I9100 model.
However, since the last one-month or so, Samsung has started selling a new variant of SGS2 in India and other Asian countries. The new variant model number is I9100G compared to the I9100 model it used to sell earlier.
While many people may buy the I9100G since the only visible difference between these two handsets is a 'G'. However, the internal differences between these handsets are quite big.
Below is a chart that shows the main difference between the I9100 and I9100G -:
|Model/Basis of Difference
1.2GHz Exynos SoC
1.2GHz OMAP4430 SoC.
The CPU is however capped at 1008MHz and rarely runs at 1.2GHz, even under heavy load
ARM Mali-400MP GPU
PowerVR SGX 540 running at 304MHz
Heating Issue
Can heat up quite a lot under heavy usage
No such issue
No lags, even under heavy load.
One of the best Android phones with the best 3D performance.
No lags under normal usage. Can struggle under heavy load.
Inferior 3D performance
Battery Life
Can last a day of heavy usage with the Android 2.3.5 update.
Slightly better battery life
Official Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Update
Will get the official Ice Cream Sandwich update from Samsung in Q1, 2012
Sometime in Q2 of 2012
Developer Support/Modding Potential
One of the most popular Android handsets among developers and in XDA forums
Hardly any developer support due to its limited market availability
CyanogenMod 7/9 Support
The CM team officially supports SGS2, and there is a experimental CM9 build out as well
No official support from CM team. Future chances look bleak as well.
No known differences
No known differences
So, as it is visible from the chart above, the internal difference between I9100 and I9100G is quite big. Since both the variants of SGS2 have different SoC, it also means that any game optimized or meant only for the I9100 will not work on I9100G.
The worst part is that Samsung is simultaneously selling the I9100 and I9100G models in some regions of the world, including India, and the outer packaging of both the phones are exactly the same. There is no way to distinguish between a I9100 and I9100G from their retail package.
Below are some pictures of the I9100G box -:
As you can see from the images above, the box suggests that the phone inside it is an Exynos powered SGS2 a.k.a I9100. However, it is actually the OMAP version of the Galaxy S2 – the I9100G variant. The only way to distinguish between an I9100 and I9100G is to actually take the phone out of the box, start it and then going to Settings-> About Phone and then checking the model number there.
Samsung has quietly phased out the I9100 variant of the SGS2 in India and other regions of the world, with the I9100G variant. While I have no issues with this, Samsung should explictly state on the box that they are selling the I9100G variant and not the I9100 in India.
If you want to buy a I9100 variant of the Galaxy S2, I'd recommend you to buy it online from Flipkart or Letsbuy, since these sites explictly mention the variant of the Galaxy S2 you will be buying. If you want to buy it from a retail store, the only suggestion I can give you is that try and buy it from the 'old' (>2 months old) stock which the dealer has. Even then, there is no guarantee that you will get the Exynos version of the Galaxy S2.

5.0 out of 5 stars Up Close and Personal Book of U2,
M. Morrow (Canada) - See all my reviews
I grew up to these guys and still play them every other day if not every day. I first acquired this book thinking it would be a good piece of memorabillia but as I started reading it I realized that I was getting the inside story about all of these amazing men from the beginning of their band to the present. What a remarkably well written account and how fortunate that a U2 fan is given such wonderful insight from the horses mouth. I laughed out loud many times at the cheekiness of a few of these guys, to the point where my husband was like "what is so funny" of course its mostly "Bono" and his great sense of description. If you like this band, you should buy this book and cherish it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Intensity through and through,
SnowPharoah "SnowPharoah" - See all my reviews
Because or in spite of them, U2 has become synonymous in the rock world with terms like "integrity", "passion", "poetry", and of course, "big business". This autobiography of the band certainly seems to give the perspective that very few aspects of the band's success have been planned - certainly, there are enough faux pas that makes this believable. There is also enough going on around the band (revealed in the book, but also in other sources) to suggest that several people have had their say in the band's success. This is a very nice story, first told around their personal lives and the early beginnings of their work together as young men from Belfast, then around the events that unfolded around their different albums and shows (remember "Band Aid"?). Each member of U2 tells part of their story and here, really, you get a glimpse of what it is like to be a normal human being struggling with superstardom - perhaps something none of us are really able to manage very well. Each member also recounts their takes on songs, albums, events that led to different lyrics in songs. The book provides a bit of the biographical information that the songs communicate.
I was surprised by some of the band members' candour. Difficult relationships, personal problems and of course, at a time when it is definitely uncool to hold Christian convictions, descriptions of their struggle to make sense of faith. There is also an interesting inside look at the beginnings of the band, at how confused and perhaps unprofessional things were at the start of their success. And of course, some discussion regarding how to manage all the fallout from Bono's other work...
If you are a fan, this is a great read. If you are curious about the band that has probably drawn the most attention since the rock revolution of the '60s, this will open some windows of thought for you. If you want to read about how four boys had their teenage dream come true, and about how they make it into more than that, this is where you should begin.

Recipe by Glenda
"A cake made from yellow cake mix is frosted with a cream cheese, mandarin orange, and pineapple mixture for a light and refreshing cake."

1 (18.25 ounce) package
yellow cake mix
8 ounces
cream cheese
1 1/2 cups
confectioners' sugar
1 (20 ounce) can
crushed pineapple with juice
2 (8 ounce) cans
mandarin oranges, drained
1 (3.5 ounce) package
instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (8 ounce) container
frozen whipped topping, thawed
Let's face it.. the cake itself is not what we're reviewing here.. it's mainly the cake icing. It's so light, delicious and addicting, and can go well with basically any cake. I recommend chilling the icing for a couple of hours before spreading it so that it will stay on the cake easier. I garnished my cake with grated coconut to complement the pineapple. It was great! I will definitely be making again! (Just to let you know, this recipe makes a TON of icing.. the leftovers make a wonderful fruit dip!)
The frosting was too sweet to our taste.
221 Ratings
a refreshing cake indeed! the natural sweetness of the pineapple and mandarins is a great change from normal sugar frostings. i liked the bits of pineapple and mandarin oranges in the frosting.
to cut the cake in half horizontally, stick toothpicks halfway up the sides of the cake, then use unflavoured dental floss to wrap around the cake with the toothpicks as a guide, cross the floss and pull the two ends away from each other, the floss will cut the cake cleanly into two layers.
Hi, I am so pleased with this recipe, I have made it five or six times. I suggest you drain the juice from both cans of fruit. Then you can add liquid as you need it. I used a boxed butter cake in a bundt cake pan. I mixed together some sugar and cinnamon, poured in half of my already mixed (accordingto package) cake mix, sprinkled the sugar and cinnamon mix over that, then added the rest of the cake mix. Bake according to directions. You will find there will be plenty of icing left over when using the bundt cake pan. I fill up the center of the cake with it. Anything left over, I eat. This is the best cake I've ever had in my life! Thank you, Glenda. Katherine D (katydid) June 12, 2009 I made this cake again for a church picnic. This time I used the Kentuckey Butter Cake found on this site. However, I think I took too much juice from the crushed pineapple. I made the cake the day before and refrigerated it. This always makes it better, but this time the cake was not as moist and good as on previous occasions when I used a box cake. I'm not blaming the cake, though. I think I will take the advise of other reviewers and refrigerate the icing before putting on the cake. I will let you know how that goes. It's still the best cake in the world. I also prefer the four layers rather than the bundt cake pan. Who wants this wonderful icing on a so-so cake?
This cake is indescribably good. The topping reminds me of ambrosia fruit salad and I could eat it with a spoon! Ambrosia usually has coconut in it and I can imagine coconut would be good on this cake. I used "real vanilla" white cake mix and cheesecake pudding mix instead of plain vanilla. The topping was just a little soupy and I had trouble getting it to stay on the sides of the cake (it was fine on the top and between the layers). I think if I had prepared the frosting through the step where the pudding is mixed in and chilled it till it set up a bit before folding in the whipped topping it would have worked out better. Refrigerate the assembled cake overnight for best results.
I love this cake! I drain the pineapple and mandarin oranges thoroughly and use the juice instead of water in the cake. It gives the cake a bit more flavor. I also chill the frosting before frosting the cake. I also make cupcakes using the same recipe so everyone gets their own individual cake. I'm a baker in my spare time and this is my most requested recipe. It's very light and refreshing.
This is delicious. I made a few changes. 1. added grated orange peel to cake mix 2. instead of just water I put in about 1/2 c or orange juice in cake mix 3. I drained some of the liquid from crushed pineapple--this made for a stiffer frosting. This is yummmmmmmmy
This is a wonderful cake recipe. Delicious, without being overly sweet. Also, the cake is visually stunning after it's frosted--tall, fluffy, and with a pretty orange tint. It looks like it was a lot of work but it's a very easy recipe! Thanks!

Last night on "60 Minutes," Steve Kroft sat down with Conan O'Brien and asked him if he thought he got screwed, among other things. O'Brien joked that his contract with NBC prohibited him from speaking frankly on the matter, but that even if he didn't have a contract his opinions would remain cordial.
Obviously Conan was hurt by the whole ordeal, and Leno and Zucker don't play in his sandbox anymore, but the former "Tonight Show" host insists that he didn't get screwed. Really, Conan? I mean, I don't exactly feel sorry for him considering he walked away with over $35 million, but when a prostitute walks away with a sweaty palm full of cash she knows how she earned it. She got screwed. And that's okay.

Corfu holidays
With its cypress trees, olives groves and fields upon fields of wild flowers, Corfu is known as the "Emerald Isle" of the Greek islands. The lush terrain, as well as the pristine beaches and crystal clear seas are just a few reasons why holiday makers have been flocking here since the 1960's.
Visit Sidari or Roda in the north and you'll find bustling beach side resorts nestled in the foot of the mountains. Travel down to the east coast and you'll come across Corfu Town, a delightful capital with a lot of character and traditional entertainment. Head to the south of Corfu and you'll eventually arrive at Kavos, party central of the island.
There's definitely a lot of variety on this Greek Island, so if you fancy a day trip somewhere you'll be spoilt for choice. Along with the warm hospitality of the locals, friendly spirit and exquisite nature of this island, a trip to Corfu will be one to remember!
As with the rest of the Greek Islands, the food you'll discover here in Corfu is delicious. Try traditional tzatziki with freshly baked bread for starters. This yoghurt, garlic and cucumber dip is a refreshing appetizer which can be eaten along with feta cheese and fried calamari. A great way to try the enormous variety on the menu is to order a few things and then share between everyone at the table!
If you're dining out in Corfu Town, Esplanade square is a great place to people watch and to try some traditional Greek food. Mousaka, a combination of mince, fried aubergine and creamy sauce, is a favourite on the Greek isles and is well worth a try. Pour over some local olive oil then wash down with some beautiful red wine, what a way to enjoy a lovely evening abroad!
To go with all the wonderful food you'll be trying, expect be drinking some unusual beverages alongside your meal. Ouzo is a classic tipple which you might find on your table. You can either sip this drink neat, dilute it with iced water or go wild and drink it in one after your meal! Be careful though, it's an acquired taste!
With beautiful summer sunshine and warm blue waters, it would be too easy to relax on the beach all day in Corfu. Of course that's one of the main reasons to come here but there are a thousand gems on this island to discover away from the beautiful coastline.
Corfu Town is a great place to spend the day and the evening if you so desire! Originally built in between two fortresses under Venetian rule, this town is a myriad of pastel coloured, mansions and oozes an elegance which just has to be experienced. Take a walk through the streets, wander through old chapels and visit the "Old Town". Here you'll find The Esplanade, one of the oldest squares in Europe. It's a great place to while your evening away with a cool drink and a traditional dish from a square-side restaurant.
If you really don't want to venture too far from the beach, Sidari is a lively beach side resort with plenty to see along the coastline. Swim along the Canal d'Amour to find tiny coves and shingle beaches. This is also a great spot for diving if you're into your watersports! Sidari in the evening is just as lively as in the daytime with many restaurants to dine at. This resort has certainly come a long way from its fishing village roots!
For a more traditional experience, head to Gouvia on the east coast. Drive through the green landscape that Corfu is famous for and you will come across what used to be a 17th century Venetian Naval Base. However it's a lot prettier now than what it probably was back then. Now, the marina is home to beautiful yachts and there are waterside cafes for an afternoon treat.
Corfu has almost every style of beach imaginable, from rocky coves to wide sweeping sandy stretches of golden sand. With so many to choose from, it's not a bad idea to decide what sort of beach you want and plan your stay from there. It is generally thought that the west coast has the sandier family beaches.
Acharavi on the northern coast is also good for families with a gently shelving long sandy beach joining it to Roda. Water sports available include windsurfing and pedaloes, water-skiing and para-gliding. You will not find it hard to spot a good taverna or restaurant for refreshment.
Agios Georgios at the northern end of the west coast is a horse-shoe shaped bay. It's a narrow road to get there but worth it when you do as it is usually quiet and offers golden sand and some water sports. It's a bit windy, great for windsurfing. The local restaurants specialise in serving fish dishes.
Roda is on the north coast offers a beach of sand backed mainly by hotels, apartments and lots of great tavernas.
On the east coast Gouvia is an enclosed bay with olive groves on the hillsides. There is a marina to enjoy the yachts coming and going and great boat trips are available. The area has good night life as well. You will find narrow sand and shingle beaches as well as little coves. Paragliding and a variety of water sports are all here to enjoy.
Shopping in Corfu is a great idea. If you are just looking for a few tourist presents or some well made jewellery you will have great fun finding it on Corfu.
Olives feature in many products from woodcarvings, olive oil to soap, and lace, embroidery and jewellery are also popular. Small sculptures of Greek classical design can be unusual and a nice present.
Corfu town is probably the best place to shop with lots of choice from the usual tourist shop to little studios in the side streets. Look out for leather goods, jewellery, honey and much more.
Go and enjoy the morning market, unless it is Sunday, below the Fortress walls. It is a bustling fresh fish, vegetable and fruit market.
Kassiopi is a good choice for shopping with a range of shops. You will find traditional and modern products on offer here, as in many of the smaller villages. Almost all resorts have a few good shops tucked away amongst the souvenir stores.
With one airport on the eastern coast of the island and roughly mid-way between the north and south ends of the island Corfu is just over three hours from Gatwick and around three and a half hours from Manchester. A taxi from the airport to Gouvia is around €30 and to Kavos around €60. Do think about going on the water, you can hire your own little motor boat to explore the coastal villages. Alternatively, arrange to go on one of the daily excursions to Anti Paxos to experience the astonishing turquoise crystal clear waters.
Locals use the bus services on a daily basis, they are reasonably reliable in Corfu town but a bit irregular in the countryside. Scooters and motor-bikes are a bad idea on the local roads. We know two wheels are popular, but suggest you spend a little more and hire a small car.
May is the start of the season on Corfu. Beautiful weather and not as hot as the high summer. July and August are the hottest and busiest months on Corfu. Temperatures are around mid 30 C. You will probably need to find accommodation with air conditioning at this time of year.
September has daytime temperatures around 30 C. Evenings are warm but getting colder as the month goes on. The beaches are quieter as the families have returned home and the sea is still warm.
October temperatures are around 20C and the island starts to close down. Evenings are starting to get too cold for outside eating as well.

So the deal is this vigilante can't fight. He accosted someone because they were walking slowly in the rain. Maybe that's why he had his hood on. Wow.Zimmerman described Martin as suspicious because he was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and walking slowly in the rain, police later told residents at a town hall.
A dispatcher told him to wait for a police cruiser, and not leave his vehicle.
But about a minute later, Zimmerman left his car wearing a red sweatshirt and pursued Martin on foot between two rows of townhouses, about 70 yards from where the teen was going.
Now every murder is by default self defense unless police have evidence that it's not? Wow.

How do you rate the safety for your customers and does a couple need to wory about being charged money to view a video.
Best Adult Video Store St. Louis 2008 - Pure Pleasure Adult Megacenter
Pure Pleasure Adult Megacenter
2626 N. Broadway
St. Louis, MO 63102
It's a typical Tuesday afternoon downtown. Businessmen and -women are packing into the elevators of the skyscrapers, Cardinals fans are looking for a good bar to pass time before the game and just up Broadway, Pure Pleasure Adult Megacenter is getting its afternoon rush. Don't let the fact that you need to be buzzed into this adult video store concern you. It's the proverbial clean well-lighted place. As you enter, take time to admire the autographed pics of such porn celebs as Britney Rears and Crystal Gunns. The videos are in back, neatly organized by interest — She Male (Without Balls She's a Doll), Classics (Debbie Does Dallas), All Male, Red Light, Amateur, etc. — in terms of length and girth, the collection would impress even John Holmes himself. Not only that, but the prices suit just about any budget. Who knew you could buy porn in the shadow of downtown STL for just $2.95?
Pure pleasure has a lot of potential, but we have decided not to go anymore unless changes are made.It's way to Black for us, meaning, the movies are all Black or Black on white, this is exciting to very few, and not us. The the misic, so lound you can talk, so load it makes you go limp.Idea, change the movies to interest the couples who want to go to a place like PP, and tuen off or way down the music.Go to The Colony, and see how it's suppose to be done for couples who want to watch XXX movies, get naked and have fun.
I totally agree with Andrew. You guys should go check out Romantix in Sauget. I know, I know, it's right there in the midst of a bunch of clubs, but this store just opened at the beginning of the year or something and it is SUPER NICE. they have great lingerie and a super selection of adult stuff. My girlfriends and I went their to get fun things for a bachelorette party. Their website romantixonline.com had a pic of the inside even- so you can see what I mean!
"It's the proverbial clean well-lighted place." I wonder if the author of this piece has even set foot into this place? It is a very dreary looking establishment, smells funny and overall gives you a creepy vibe. I went into the bathroom there (mistake) and the floor was littered with crumpled up tissue. Patricia's (formerly Pricisla's) on the south side is a good example of clean, well lit store. Hustler Hollywood up on Natural Bridge, is an even better example of a clean, well lit store. Inside it looks like a freakin' store you would find in the mall. Plus they are anywhere from $10 - $20 cheaper on new release DVD's than Pure Pleasure. I'll continue to drive the extra 10 minutes north on 70 so i can shop for my dirty porn and no feel dirty in the process!

Waterfalls are special places. They attract us to visit their realms, where they tumble over ledges in a froth of white, making a visual and audio splash into our lives.
However, waterfalls have dangers. Waterfall visitors drown in heavy undertows like that at Laurel Fork Falls near Hampton. Others perish while climbing alongside or even in cataracts, like occasionally happens at Unicoi County's Red Fork Falls. Still others get hurt trying to reach remote off-trail cataracts like Painter Creek Falls in the Sampson Mountain Wilderness.
Every warm season, we have accidents around waterfalls, and believe me, I am no alarmist. However, make visiting a waterfall an enjoyable natural experience, not a precursor to an emergency room. Do not climb on slippery rocks or atop a falls. Lovely waterfalls often hide lethal danger. Crabtree Falls in Virginia has claimed 23 lives to date. Great Falls at Rock Island State Park in Middle Tennessee has been the scene of over 100 recorded deaths the last 6 decades.
Developed areas can be just as dangerous as undeveloped areas. As one ranger put it, "It is just the nature of rocks and water and cliffs. You can build observation decks and post signs, but people will be careless and use poor judgment."
The hazards are real. When playing around a waterfall, remember "a single slip could be your last".
Here are some axioms to follow while visiting waterfalls:
Stay on developed trails and do not stray from observation points or platforms.
Watch your footing. Rocks may be slippery, and algae-coated areas are unforgiving.
The top of any waterfall is, of course, the most dangerous part. Avoid the temptation to lean over a ledge at the top of the falls.
Exercise caution on the trail to the falls, as well as around the falls themselves. Waterfall trails are often treacherous—steep and rocky with sheer embankments.
Be especially cautious when taking photographs. You are likely to pay more attention to your camera than to your footing.
Watch children carefully. Children should always be under the immediate supervision of an adult.
Watch your dog. I saw a golden retriever, who seemed surefooted but did not understand the concept of slick rocks, fall off a 12-foot drop. He was fine, but its master was nearly injured scurrying down to him.
Never hike alone.
On any hike, carry a small daypack or fanny pack with useful items and extra gear. Most people consider ten items essential: matches, a compass, a map, a knife, a flashlight, sunglasses, fire kindling, extra food, extra clothing, and a first-aid kit. Add dry bags to the list for waterproofing and organizing. In addition, carry an adequate supply of water. Do not drink any surface water unless it has been boiled for one minute or treated.
The proceeding list may seem long, but the first six essentials can fit into a small pack or bag. Extra food and clothing (a few candy bars and a raincoat or sweater) do not take up much space. Avid hikers sometimes keep a daypack filled and ready to go, checking the contents occasionally, testing batteries, restocking first-aid supplies, and adding to food reserves as necessary.
That way, you are not only prepared at the waterfall, but on your way to the waterfall. Now go have fun.

1 recipe
pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie
1 3/4 cups
crushed buttery round crackers
2 teaspoons
cream of tartar
2 tablespoons
lemon juice
1 tablespoon
lemon zest
2 cups
2 tablespoons
2 cups
white sugar
1/2 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
A recipe similar to this appeared in the Kraft "Food and Family" magazine where I had originally tried it. This is a REALLY good recipe especially if you like lemon. One error I find in this recipe though is it requires a double crust, not single crust pie shell.Takes about 36 crackers,rind of 1 whole lemon and juice of 1 1/2 lemon. This may help when making your grocery list. Also, it is not necessary to cool pie completely. We ate it warm and it did not fall apart when cutting and tasted great!
Great pie! Hubby and I have hit some hard times and this pie sure is cheaper than an apple pie. Great taste! He sure was fooled! I sprinkled cinnamon between layers of crakers. Sprinkled some coarse sugar on the top crust before baking.

He Stopped Loving Her Today
|"He Stopped Loving Her Today"
|Single by George Jones
|from the album I Am What I Am
|"A Hard Act to Follow"
|April 14, 1980
|Bobby Braddock
Curly Putman
|Billy Sherrill
George Jones
|George Jones singles chronology
"He Stopped Loving Her Today" is a song recorded by American country music artist George Jones that has been named in several surveys as the greatest country song of all time.[1] It was released in April 1980 as the lead single from the album I Am What I Am. The song was Jones's first No. 1 single in six years. The melancholy song was written by Bobby Braddock and Curly Putman. The week after Jones' death the song re-entered the Hot Country Songs chart at No. 21. As of November 13, 2013, the single has sold 521,000 copies in the United States.[2] Since 2008 it has been preserved by the Library of Congress into the National Recording Registry.
Alan Jackson sang the song during George Jones' funeral service on May 2, 2013.
George Strait and Alan Jackson sang the song as a tribute during the 2013 CMA Awards on November 6, 2013.
The singer tells the story of a friend who has never given up on his love. He keeps old letters and photos from back in the day, and hangs on to hope that she would "come back again." The song reaches its peak in the chorus, revealing that he indeed stopped loving her – when he died. She attends his funeral.
The song featured Sherrill's signature 'Countrypolitan' style of the period, featuring a lush background string arrangement and a choir providing background vocals.
According to producer Billy Sherrill and Jones himself, the singer did not like the song when he first heard it. In Bob Allen's biography George Jones: The Life and Times of a Honky Tonk Legend, Sherrill states "he thought it was too long, too sad, too depressing and that nobody would ever play it...He hated the melody and wouldn't learn it." Sherrill also claims that Jones frustrated him by continually singing the song to the melody of the Kris Kristofferson hit "Help Me Make It Through the Night". In the 1989 video documentary Same Ole Me, Sherrill recalls a heated exchange during one recording session: "I said 'That's not the melody!' and he said 'Yeah, but it's a better melody.' I said 'It might be - Kristofferson would think so too, it's his melody!'" In the same documentary, Sherrill claims that Jones was in such bad physical shape during this period that "the recitation was recorded 18 months after the first verse was" and added that the last words Jones said about "He Stopped Loving Her Today" was "Nobody'll buy that morbid son of a bitch".
Though Jones had hated "He Stopped Loving Her Today" when it was first offered to him, he ultimately gave the song credit for reviving his flagging career, stating that "a four-decade career had been salvaged by a three-minute song." Jones earned the Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance in 1980. The Academy of Country Music awarded the song Single of the Year and Song of the Year in 1980. It also became the Country Music Association's Song of the Year in both 1980 and 1981.

Valtteri Bottas believes Williams Martini Racing could have a "very competitive" Italian Grand Prix weekend at the Monza circuit.
The team's 2014 car – the FW36 – has typically thrived on tracks that require strong straight line speed and high aerodynamic efficiency, which are both key characteristics to a fast lap at Monza.
The Grove-based outfit is currently fourth in the constructors' standings after a positive first part of the season. Despite Bottas finishing third at the last race in Belgium, Williams dropped further behind Ferrari in the fight for third place.
The Finn is confident the team will be competitive this weekend. "Monza could be a great track for our car and I know we will be busy with our partners, many of whom are coming to Italy," he said.
"The track is really good fun to drive and it is important to have good straight-line speeds as it has some very quick straights. We have a track specific aero package that we will take, combine that with the strong power-unit and we could have a very competitive weekend."
His team-mate Felipe Massa failed to finish in the points at Spa-Francorchamps, but is hopeful that he can return to the top 10 in Italy. "Monza is a place I enjoy," the Brazilian said.
"I love the people and the fans and I hope now despite the fact that I have moved teams that they still support and cheer for me. Monza is a special circuit as it's so quick, but the corners are quite slow.
"Aerodynamics are vital at a track like this and that could benefit us over the weekend. I hope to be competitive here as I think the Italian fans would like to see us do well."

What is chest pressure?
Chest pressure is the sensation of a squeezing, tightening, crushing or pressing in the chest area, with or without pain. It is sometimes described as a feeling of a band tightening around your chest or of something heavy sitting on your chest. A pressure sensation can come from a condition occurring in any part of your chest, including your chest wall muscles, esophagus, heart, lungs, nerves, ribcage, or tendons. If you have pain with the pressure, it may radiate between your chest and your neck, abdomen or back.
Chest Problems Spotlight
Chest pressure can be a symptom of disorders such as heartburn or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Chest pressure accompanied by pain that changes with breathing or that radiates to your back may be pleuritic pain (usually caused by dryness or inflammation in the sac that surrounds the lungs) or muscle inflammation. Other causes of chest pressure include anxiety and more serious conditions such as anaphylaxis (a life-threatening allergic reaction) or heart conditions ranging from rapid heart rate (tachycardia), to heart attack (myocardial infarction) and irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia).
Depending upon the cause, chest pressure can be accompanied by other symptoms, including fast heart rate, sweating, abdominal pain, or difficulty breathing. Unexplained pressure in the chest should always be investigated by a health care practitioner.
Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if you, or someone you are with, experience chest pressure or pain; confusion or loss of consciousness, even for a brief moment; pounding or rapid heart rate (tachycardia); shortness of breath or difficulty breathing or swallowing; or sudden swelling of the throat, face or lips. Seek prompt medical care if you experience chest pain that gets worse with breathing or a change in position or a regurgitation of stomach contents up into the esophagus, throat or mouth.
What other symptoms might occur with chest pressure?
Chest pressure may accompany other symptoms, which vary depending on the underlying disease, disorder or condition. Symptoms that frequently affect the chest may involve any of several body systems.
Cardiovascular symptoms that may occur along with chest pressureChest pressure may accompany symptoms related to the cardiovascular system including:

I know some of you shop at Cabela's, I hope someone can confirm this.
This was sent to me in an email
Thanks to Cabela's for breaking out the new tax.
Here it comes! I'm glad Cabela's is showing this.
The 2.3% Medical Excise Tax that began on January 1st is supposed to be "hidden" from the consumer,
but it's been brought to the public's attention by hunting and fishing store Cabela's who have refused
to hide it and are showing it as a separate line item tax on their receipts.
Anyone still believe Obama didn't raise taxes on the middle class?

The approved initiatives focus on various requirements and processes and will positively affect business applications within the DoD. They include: initiate discussions with the Office of Management and Budget and the Congress on revisions to scoring rules on capital leases (e.g., lease to own), so that budget authority and outlays are scored in ways more similar to commercial accounting practices; study successful Share-in-Savings projects and use this research to develop legislative proposals to expand this proven technique; review the joint travel regulations to obtain more parity between civilian and military travel practices and leverage best business practices to obtain volume discounts on commercial lodging; work with the DoD Policy Board on Federal Aviation to improve personnel aspects of the military air traffic control process; and propose legislation that permits the full cost of travel to be charged to the appropriation current when the travel begins.
The benefits from the BIC-approved initiatives include streamlined business processes that will enable DoD military and civilian personnel to make better use of their time, the opportunity to avoid unnecessary costs in several functional areas, and the possible return of some service personnel to deploying units. Several of the proposals require legislation prior to implementation and realization of any efficiencies.
The BIC was launched in July 2001 to implement bureaucracy-reducing and/or money-saving opportunities in the business practices of the Department of Defense, which is core to Secretary Rumsfeld's broader "Battle on Bureaucracy" campaign. The council is presided over by Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics Edward C. "Pete" Aldridge and is composed of high-level military and civilian personnel.
In approving the latest round of BIC initiatives, Aldridge noted, "the BIC will continue to bring good ideas forward for consideration. For the Department's business processes to improve, leadership must use teamwork and gain continued support and participation from the entire workforce."

Climbing Mount Fujiyama
Climbing Mount Fujiyama
This occurred 40 years ago before the density of population and air traffic made such things impossible. This was a time when the Secretary of State carried a big stick rather than a big purse. It was a time when nuclear war was thinkable. It was a time when VA-125 at NAS Moffett Field turned out A-4 pilots trained to deliver just one bomb in a loft maneuver. If called upon, we would fly our mission alone, one pilot and one Skyhawk and one hellacious nuclear bomb.
In preparation, we often flew alone on navigation flights. So it was not unusual that, one February day after the squadron off-loaded for ten days at Yokota, I was at 15,000 feet over Fujiyama in a Dambuster A-4B. Fujiyama resembles Mount Shasta, which we saw on a few of our navigation routes out of Moffett. Both stand alone, dominating the landscape, but Shasta's slopes are concave, leaving a steep angle toward the peak. I had flown over Fujiyama before, and the first time I did, I rolled up on a wing and looked directly down into the crater. The mountain was so symmetrical that it appeared to have no elevation. It seemed to be level with the floor of the Kofu Basin.
How gentle a slope, like a low angle climb on the one side and low angle descent on the other, I thought that day. As in a cartoon, the little light bulb went off over my head. Why the h_ _ _ not, I said to myself. There isn't a person anywhere on the mountain. It's cold out and the people are indoors. I can get a straight run-in line here without passing over any villages. OK. I know what it takes to get up to 500 knots on a loft-bombing run-in line, so I'll start my dive to the deck about there.
I had the 500 knots, as I knew I would. I had the mountain bore-sighted as I shot across the basin at 200 feet altitude. I knew just where I was going to start my pull-up. After all, this was just like another low-angle loft maneuver. This is IT ---- going up ---- paralleling the slope ---- about 100 feet above the mountainside ---- approaching the snowcap ---- there's the crater ---- a little nose up, a half roll ---- a glance into the crater ---- pull nose down, another half roll ---- just like an over-the-shoulder loft maneuver ---- keep the nose down ---- parallel the slope again ---- down the mountainside ---- easy pull-up here at the base. Really haulin' the mail outta here. D_ _ _, that was fun. I'm goin' do it again.
Several days later, having flown this invigorating maneuver several times, I became complacent. Yes, that bane of aviators -- complacency. What harangue of a safety officer is complete without this word? But I was just going to visit Fujiyama one last time. How prophetic that thought nearly was.
This time I started a little lower, a little closer, and a little heavier. As the base of the mountain approached, I realized that I only had 440 knots. Well, that should be enough, I thought, and up I went. With the snowcap still well ahead I saw the airspeed indicator rapidly bleeding down toward 200 knots. I suddenly realized I wasn't going to make it to the top, let alone over the top. There was only one way out. I banked starboard, tentatively, using about ten degrees angle of bank. With the airspeed bleeding off and the slats coming out, I went to half-flaps. The aircraft was starting to shudder a little. I was concentrating on keeping the ball centered in the turn-and-bank indicator. Having made it through 90 degrees of turn, aircraft still shuddering, it still looked like I was going to be a permanent blemish on the mountainside. I was trying to keep the nose up enough to keep from pranging and down enough to keep from stalling. (There was no angle-of-attack indicator in the Bravo).) I can't say how far above ground I was, (There was no radar altimeter either.) but I was glad there were no trees. After an eternity the airspeed started to increase. I had finally gotten the Skyhawk pointed downhill and completed the hairiest, strangest wingover imaginable.
This is the point where I should say "I Learned About Flying From That" and I never did that again. But I can't, because I went down that mountain, back across that basin, climbing to altitude, and then with a split-S got my airspeed. And for one last time, I flew the slopes of Fujiyama.

Troy Davis was executed on September 21, 2011, for the alleged murder of an off duty police officer named Mark MacPhail in 1989. He was convicted in 1991 for shooting MacPhail to death while coming to the aid of the homeless man that was being attacked.
There was a four-hour delay for legal review before Davis was executed by lethal injection. Davis's case has been widely broadcast amongst the public, many who believed he was innocent just as he had pleaded all the way up to his execution. September 21, 2011 the U.S. Supreme Court denied a last minute stay of execution. Davis, 42, died at 11:08 p.m. ET, according to a Georgia Department of corrections official.
"I'd like to address the MacPhail family," Davis said, according to The Associated Press. "Let you know, despite the situation you are in, I'm not the one who personally killed your son, your father, your brother. I am innocent. The incident that happened that night is not my fault," he added. "I did not have a gun. All I can ask…is that you look deeper into this case so that you really can finally see the truth. I ask my family and friends to continue to fight this fight," he said. "For those about to take my life, God have mercy on your souls. And may God bless your souls."
The MacPhail's family seemed to have comfort in Davis's execution and MacPhail's wife even stated, "it's time for healing" after the execution. Although the family believes Davis's execution served them justice, many of the public feel differently. The public felt there was a lack of sufficient evidence and the witnesses that testified were not believable.
New York Governor Mario Cuomo condemns Davis's death penalty and provides the statement, "As was shown by the recent Troy Davis execution in Georgia, where shaky witness testimony and a lack of physical evidence were considered insufficient to create 'reasonable doubt,' too many people seem unconcerned about the overly ambitious prosecutor, the sloppy detective, the incompetent defense counsel, the witness with an ax to grind, the judge who keeps courthouse conviction box scores," Cuomo writes.
The U.S. Supreme Court is comforted with their verdict because in the 1991 trial of Davis, there were seven witnesses that testified they had seen Davis shoot MacPhail, and two others claimed that Davis had confessed the murder to them. Although the murder weapon was not recovered, the evidence presented at the trial linked bullets recovered near the scene to bullets found at another shooting in which Davis was also charged.
The U.S. Supreme Court used as many measures as possible to obtain evidence to show Davis was innocent. In 1991 they ordered the United States District Court to order for the Southern District of Georgia to consider new evidence "that could not have been obtained at the time of trial clearly establishes [Davis's] innocence."
The new hearing was held in June 2010. The defense presented seven witness statements out of the nine original witnesses whose testimony had identified Davis as the murderer. The two other witnesses changed their previous testimony.
The defense was trying to display that Sylvester Coles could be responsible for the murder of MacPhail. Coles' confession to the killing was excluded as hearsay because Coles was not subpoenaed by the defense to deny it. In the decision of August 2010, the conviction was upheld. The court described defense efforts to blame Coles as "largely smoke and mirrors" and found that several of the offered witness statements were not changed at all.
Other appeals, including the one to the Supreme Court, were rejected, and a fourth execution date was set for September 21, 2011. About one million people signed petitions asking the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles to grant clemency for Davis, the request was denied. On September 21, the board refused to reconsider its decision and after a last minute appeal to the United States Supreme Court was also denied, the sentence was carried out on September 21, 2011.
Was Troy Davis innocent? We may never know, but we can trust that the U.S. Supreme Court made the right decision because they did a thorough investigation and multiple revisions of the case and evidence presented. Doing so provides closure based on all their hard work of contemplating his verdict. They truly believed based on valid information that Davis was the murderer of MacPhail.

text: Happy New Years Eve Everyone! With every New Years Eve comes a resolution that everyone makes but no really keeps. This year my resolution is to go to the gym atleast 3 times a week in order to get fit. I already have multiple workout buddys and believe that I can stay true to this resolution with their help. This week I was able to go to the gym 4 times, so I feel that I will be able to stay true to this resolution because I am very determined. With that being said, I suggest that everyone sets a resolution for themselves that is realistic, this way it gives you something to strive towards. Anyway have fun celebrating the new year, because I know I will!

Below is the poem entitled Music without lyrics which was written by poet
Lohrey. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Caroline Lohrey
I have a song stuck inside my head; and it won't let anybody but me see it.
Believe me, I've tried and tried to make it come out.
It just says 'No." and crawls about.
I can't put into words this feeling, this idea inside my mind.
When I finally gather up the bravery to try and coax it out,
it becomes a copy of another man's genius.
I can't force it, and neither will if flow.
It is a story I've tried to write over and over again,
but it gets lodged in my pen.
It clots on the paper, refusing to prove its existence.
But with that rebuttal, it also makes any creativity impossible.
It unsettles my thoughts, and mixes my dreams.
Wrinkling my mind, it creates a crack in my brain.
It is a crack that can only be filled with its music;
the music that refuses to come out.
And so I sit, writing all these complications from my mind,
hoping that maybe the song will slip out between the spaces.
My mind is too crammed with thoughts and ideas to embrace anymore lyric-less music.

YALSA, the Young Adult Library Services Association, has announced the winners of several annual book awards this week.
The Printz Award honors a book that a book that exemplifies literary excellence in young adult literature. This year's winner is Ship Breaker by Paolo Bacigalupi. This adventure is set in a not-too-distant future that has been ravaged by global warming. Nailer makes a living by scavenging shipwrecks for copper wire and dreams of making a lucky strike that will allow him to escape his dangerous dad. He longs to parasail aboard one of the sleek schooners that he sees far out on the open ocean. One night a nasty storm grinds all work on the beach to a halt. Nailer and his friend Pima discover a wrecked schooner and go scavenging, only to find a girl on board who wears more wealth on her fingers than they have ever dreamed of. Do they kill her and take her rings? Or do they risk their lives to return her to her clan?
The YALSA Nonfiction Award honors the best nonfiction book published for young adults each year. This year's winner is Janis Joplin: Rise up Singing by Ann Angel. This book was a labor of love. Angel worked on it for years, conducting interviews with Joplin's friends. The eye-popping design is a delight. The colors and patterns adorning the pages reflect the psychedelic look of Joplin's album art. There are also many photos of Joplin, some filling an entire page, that show her both in her awkward youth and as the performer that she transformed herself into. This a fun book to browse through. Angel does a really good job of describing Joplin's persona and the impact she had on people.
The Morris Award honors a debut-novel written for teens. This year's winner is The Freak Observer by Blythe Woolston. Suffering from a crippling case of post-traumatic stress disorder, sixteen-year-old Loa Lindgren tries to use her problem solving skills, sharpened in physics and computer programming, to cure herself. "With insightful humor and an impressive economy of language, Woolston brings a fresh voice to teen fiction that will challenge and delight readers," said Morris Award Chair Summer Hayes.

Two West Sulawesi teenagers narrowly avoided a beating at the hands of an angry mob after being discovered having sex in a mosque on Thursday.
The two teens were caught half-naked in the toilet of a mosque in the Wonomulyo area of Polewali Mandar district.
News of the incident quickly spread among locals and within minutes hundreds of angry residents descended on the mosque, according to Kompas.com.
The teens were taken into custody by Wonomulyo Police for their own safety until their parents picked them up.
Their identities were not released, but they are allegedly known as graduates of a famous religious school in the district.
"For people who understand religion, they shouldn't have done that, especially in the mosque. They have desecrated the mosque," Salim, the neighborhood head, told Kompas.

Shops, pubs and restaurant in Stortford town centre hit by sixth power cut in two weeks
Posted: July 04, 2013|
WORKMEN have repaired an underground electricity cable in the centre of Bishop's Stortford this evening (Thursday, July 4) which they believe is responsible for a series of power cuts which have plagued businesses in the past fortnight.
A total of 17 customers in the North Street, Bridge Street and Water Lane area, including Coopers of Stortford and the Herts & Essex Observer, were hit by an outage soon after 9.30am this morning which lasted for about an hour and a half.
Then at 1pm the power went down again and was still off when most businesses shut for the day.
Soon after 6pm a spokesman for electricity supplier UK Power Networks said: "We have found the fault. We are looking to repair it this evening.
"We're looking at an estimated restoration time of around 8.30pm. That will fix the problem permanently."
Workmen pinpointed the fault in a cable beneath the pavement outside Charrington House, the former East Herts District Council offices, in Old River Lane. One of them reported seeing smoke coming from beneath bricks bordering the grass verge.
But at 7.12, earlier than expected, the Lemon Tree restaurant in Water Lane, which had been hit three times in the space of 24 hours, tweeted: "Back up and running. So stressful as no gas or electrics for hours. Problem ongoing with phone line though. Could be 24 hours till repaired."
Earlier it said on Twitter: "So frustrating. We have a full restaurant tonight and a big wedding tomorrow."
The businesses were affected in different ways as a result of having more than one phase, or supply line, into their buildings. For example, at the Observer, the phones and some lights were fine while the sockets were out, which meant that reporters were unable to use their computers.
This afternoon's failure forced the closure of the William Hill betting shop in Bridge Street, where punters could watch races on the screens but could not bet on them because the tills were not functioning. The shop had to shut because its lights were not working.
Next door, gift shop Consortia was without its till and card machine, but on the other side of the bookie's the Isabel Hospice charity shop shut was unaffected.
At the Star Inn, the lights and fruit machines were on, but it could not serve beer or food, while, conversely, in the Black Lion on the other side of Bridge Street, it had no lights but was able to pull pints.
Portrait photographer Rebecca Callaghan, whose studio is above the Isabel Hospice shop, was forced to reschedule at least two shoots, while electricals shop Rickmores across the road was in darkness all afternoon.
At Coopers of Stortford, the back of the store was without lights and the call centre for its mail order business was affected. In the same building, the Eden Hair Group salon was without power on its first floor.
The same 17 customers were also without electricity for more than an hour last Thursday morning (June 27). Nine customers were affected the day before (Wed June 26).

Hai Truong considers himself a supporter of light rail, but he maintains he got a nasty surprise after complaining to a Central Corridor construction supervisor about Walsh Construction workers parking their personal vehicles for hours at a time in the one-hour spot by his restaurant, Ngon Vietnamese Bistro.
At 12:15 p.m. Friday, June 29, a busy time of day for his St. Paul eatery, he found a row of construction workers sitting on the sidewalk at University Avenue and Avon Street, from his front door to his back patio. Customers were forced to step over the workers with their lunch bins and their legs splayed in front of them to get in and out of the restaurant.
Truong and other neighborhood advocates call the scene a retaliatory lunchtime protest. A construction supervisor called it workers eating lunch in the shade.
A spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Council's Central Corridor office, which handles all press inquiries for Walsh, said she will meet with the office's outreach staff to review the details Monday.
What's clear is that tensions around the ongoing construction of the 11-mile Central Corridor light-rail transit line are in some cases running as high as the temperature.
Many businesses have seen significant drops in customers for weeks at a time, while Central Corridor officials say they've done their best to minimize business disruptions and have made grants and loans available to qualifying businesses in need.
Truong, who is active in St.
The Walsh supervisor told him it was a hot day -- noontime temperatures reached 86 degrees, according to the National Weather Service -- and the workers had the right to sit in the shade on a public sidewalk. So Truong took pictures.
"I could hear them going, 'Ooh, we're blocking the right of way, we're blocking access.' Now it's just blatant retaliation," Truong said. "It's an attack on my business."
Access in the construction zone on University Avenue has become a touchy subject. Work on the project has torn up the street, and sometimes the sidewalk in front of businesses as it has progressed.
Truong called the Central Corridor office's 24-hour construction hotline for help. Eventually, Walsh marketing representative Kimberly Sannes arrived and approached the construction supervisor with Truong. The supervisor told him "that's a public sidewalk" and "your customers got by," Truong said.
"He's sitting there smoking a cigar, and making out like it's not a big deal, like I'm crazy," Truong said. The workers finally moved.
Truong later reached out to Tait Danielson-Castillo, executive director of the Frogtown Neighborhood Association, who sits on a business communications committee for the Central Corridor project. Danielson-Castillo also approached the construction supervisor, who again indicated that the men had been hot and seeking shade.
"It wasn't just sitting in the shade," said Danielson-Castillo, after reviewing Truong's photos. "They were fully out blocking the sidewalk so it's impassable."
The spokeswoman for the Central Corridor office could not immediately confirm details of the incident on Friday but said the incident would be looked into.
Truong said he has complained before about workers parking in customer spots and received assurances it wouldn't happen again, but the problem persists.
"I've been dealing with this for a while, where they would park in the one-hour parking spots, not their work trucks but their personal trucks, taking away my customer parking," Truong said. "Having to deal with this while trying to promote my business during construction? I'm in full support of the light rail ... but I'm just trying to get by."
Truong speaks fluent English, and he worries about other business owners along the Central Corridor who don't and might not know how to communicate similar concerns.
Truong, a former board member with the Frogtown Community Development Corporation, lives near his restaurant and was appointed by St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman to the St. Paul Ramsey County Food and Nutrition Commission, which is working on ways to promote healthier eating habits. He's also on the steering committee for Irrigate St. Paul, an arts initiative.
Heavy construction of the 11-mile Central Corridor line began last year and is expected to wrap up toward the end of this year, with 2013 mostly dedicated to electrical wiring and testing the trains. Passenger service between downtown St. Paul and downtown Minneapolis is expected to begin in 2014.
