The Taste of Music: Seekae
Each week for the next few weeks, we're asking a different music personality to craft us a playlist based around the theme of "pop" or "rock". A theme so good you could taste it. And that taste might taste something a lot like a Drumstick ice-cream. I mean, I just pulled that out of thin air, but just to give you one example. (Previously: Muscles. Spod.)
Today's candidate is Seekae, the Sydney trio who—since their inception in 2006—have undergone a metamorphosis from shy bedroom headphone act to a globe-hopping, festival-smashing aural beast over the course of but two full lengths. Of course, it's the quiet ones you need to look out for: turns out they're hilarious. At least when excavating their music nerd hearts in order to craft us their ideal Pop playlist.
1. David Bowie - 'China Girl'
"This is the pinnacle. David Bowie. China town. Picture in picture. Stereotypes. Double Bass. The clip was primarily shot in Australia with director David Mallet who also masterminded the film clip for 'Let's Dance'. David Bowie is a real guy. That goes without saying. You can tell by the way that he dances. It's barely even dancing. None of this shit you see these days with the group of boys running around with all the girls yelling at them. A romantic and entertaining clip. I watch it once a week."
2. Bill Withers - 'Use Me'
"I think this is the drummer's attempt at not trying to steal the limelight. You can see in this clip he's a real son of a bitch. Type of guy who gets a call from Bill Withers talking about coming on the TV to play a couple of tracks for the people of America. This song is my favourite Bill Withers track. He clearly doesn't give a shit. I heard that he wrote 'Ain't No Sunshine' in his head one day at work. He worked in an assembly line and spent his pay cheque on a recording session. You see this guy sweating like a criminal's mattress? That's the real deal. Just a man playing the shit out of the rhythm part and thinking goddamn, they turned the lights on for this one. Bill Withers."
3. ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) - 'Telephone Line'
"I like this clip a lot. I also like that it's out of sync. I also like stories about Jeff Lynne. Jeff Lynne did a lot more than most people I know give him credit for. He's in control. Listen to that chorus melody. Look at his fucking hair cut. The guy is totally airborne. Sometimes when I'm driving and I'm listening to my Bob Rogers he'll spin this number for me. I turn it right up and just drive thinking about all the shit that gets me going. Jeff Lynne also did a lot of production work for Roy Orbison. They also worked with a guy called T-Bone Burnett. That says a lot about the type of cavalry they rolled with. I've also got no problem with needing a solid six or seven fellas to make a live set work."
4. Roy Orbison - 'She's A Mystery To Me'
"Roy Orbison. Apparently when he recorded this song Bono was there. Because that's what happened when Roy stepped in front of a mic - people like Bono turned up to watch. They ran the track through once with Roy in the booth and no one thought he was singing, like maybe he was just getting the vibe for the next take. Turns out Roy was singing. Turns out no one could hear him or see his mouth moving but he nailed it in one take. Sure enough, they turned it up and they had another hit on their hands. Roy Orbison."
5. Darkurd - 'If You Want Me To Stay'
"It was a big thing for me to include this one. I've known Darkurd for about six years. I went through a big talk box phase when I was seventeen - John Hurd's one of those motherfucker's always posting shit on YouTube. Well at least he was about six years ago. This is a lesson in DIY editing. I know it's the cool thing right now. Wacky, low brow editing. But this was in 1996. When most of these kids were still listening to Ronan Keating and playing Teenage Music Nine Inch Turtles. You want the real deal go to Darkurd. He's got some real twisted videos of Christmas lunches and things like that which are pretty upsetting. It's also clear that the guy plays a pretty mean Key-tar. John."
6. Steely Dan - 'Reelin' In The Years'
"Steely Dan played a large part in my childhood, mainly because my dad would never stop playing them. Once I reached puberty though, I finally started to appreciate the genius of their music, and I know I will continue to for years to come. A friend told me that the guitarist in this video now works for the FBI and carries a pistol with him at all times. Frankly, if you're responsible for that guitar solo, you can do whatever the fuck you want."
7. Shoes and Socks Off - 'Here's My Head On A Plate'
"I discovered this guy a few months ago through my cousin. From what I've heard, he's an incredibly prolific and diverse composer, and also has one of the finest beards in Surrey. Luckily, I managed to catch his last gig before he discontinued this project. The video is one of the best I've seen for a long time."
8. Peter Gabriel - 'Sledgehammer'
"When I was about 4, my parents would often occupy me by placing me down in front of the TV and putting on an Aardman Animations VHS. It would be partly enjoyable, mainly frightening, but I always enjoyed this video at the end of the tape. The horns in the track get a ten on ten from me too."
9. Midlake - 'Balloon Maker'
"Midlake are a fantastic band, and I really think this song is one of their best. It's directed by Jason Lee AKA Earl from 'My Name is Earl'. Turns out Jason Lee used to be a professional skater and can also Stalefish and 360 Flip like you wouldn't imagine. What I like about this clip though is that I have no idea what's going on. This is kind of how Midlake's music makes me feel. It makes sense, but if you were to try and explain it to someone, they'd spit in your face."
10. Eiffel 65 - 'Too Much Of Heaven'
"Too much of heaven really can bring you down. I'm quite sure in Eiffel 65's case, "heaven" is a metaphor for crystal meth. This video is great though, especially the newspaper headlines at 1:43, and the neon robot ninja suits at the end. They also have a song called 'My Console' that quite simply names playstation titles for four and a half minutes."


text: UPDATE: Due to Twi-hard concern, we double-checked with Splash about the pics, and their photo provider says multiple local photographers claimed the pair in the shots were Kristen Stewart and her mom. We're on the fence—Jules' tattoos would appear to be missing and we believe Kristen was in Vancouver shooting Breaking Dawn during the date listed— so we've removed the photos. Thank you to everyone on Twitter who messaged us about these photos; and to the girl in Cuba who looks super similar to Kristen Stewart…we envy you.

From twit to tweet: How Twitterrific helped Twitter get its verb - and bird - on
Last week the word "tweet" was added to the Oxford English Dictionary. Craig Hockenberry, a principle of the Iconfactory, co-creator of Twitterrific, and iMore hall of famer, gave some background as to its origins on his blog, Furbo.org:
It still feels strange to hear a word I helped create be mentioned over and over again in the media. It's a great word to go along with a great service, and in the end, I'm just happy we're not calling each other twits!
More than just the word "tweet", the Iconfactory and Twitterrific are responsible for the bird and a remarkable amount of Twitter's common branding and popular identity. The whole story is charming and enlightening, and a rare glimpse back at the very incommon beginnings of something that now seems so commonplace.

a plurality of light sources attached to the housing, all light sources being positioned within the housing to emit light through the lens to illuminate a surface to which the indicia has been applied when the illuminated viewing device is positioned to overlie the surface so an observer positioned on the same side of the lens as the plurality of light sources can view the illuminated indicia comprising the authentication image therethrough.
The present application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/483,746 filed Jun. 30, 2003, the disclosures of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Various methods have been proposed for protecting goods and documents from counterfeit protection. Some such methods include creating images which may be embedded and/or concealed as encoded, hidden images. The images cannot easily be seen, if at all, without the use of a special device to decode, or reveal, an authentication image when placed over the location of the encoded image. When a decoder is placed over a branded good, for example, at a location where an authentic product is known to contain an encoded image, a party may be able to verify the good's authenticity by whether or not the authentication image is revealed when one views the location through the decoder.
In many cases, a party interested in investigating whether or not a product or document is authentic may be conducting the investigation in a low light situation, such as a warehouse or shipyard where goods are often subject to inspection. Similarly, a police officer may want to determine the authenticity of a driver's license during a night time traffic stop along a dimly lit street. These low light situations can make authentication difficult.
Accordingly, it is desirable to have a decoder device that illuminates an encoded image for viewing when ambient light is low and viewing an encoded image through the decoder may be difficult without an additional light source.
An illustrative embodiment of the invention provides an illuminated decoder that comprises a housing, a lens attached to the housing, the lens being configured for optically decoding an encoded image viewable therethrough, and at least one light source attached to the housing to illuminate a surface containing the encoded image so that when the illuminated decoder is positioned to overlie the surface, the encoded image printed on the surface may be viewed through and decoded by the lens to reveal an authentication image.
Exemplary embodiments of the invention are directed to providing an illuminated decoder that can be used to decode encoded images in low light situations, when ambient light alone may be insufficient to reveal the encoded image as an authentication image. The illuminated decoder comprises a housing, a lens capable of decoding encoded images and a light source associated with the lens.
As used herein, the term "encoded image" refers to an authentication image printed in rasterized, scrambled or other manipulated form, such that when embedded and/or concealed in a document or in another printed background or source image, the authentication image cannot be discerned from the base document material or other background or source image without the use of an optical decoding device. An encoded image may be generated from an authentication image using a particular set of characteristics that include encoding parameters corresponding to certain optical characteristics of the decoding device. When the encoded image is printed, placement of the decoding device over the printed encoded image in a predetermined orientation reveals the authentication image. Without the decoding device, some or all of the encoded image may be visible, but the authentication image is indecipherable or indistinguishable from the background by the naked eye. In other cases, the presence of encoded image may also be indecipherable or indistinguishable from the background by the naked eye.
One method of producing encoded images is through a rasterization process such as that described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,708,717 (the '717 Patent), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Encoded images may be printed with a certain line density, called a frequency. In the '717 Patent method, digitized authentication images are encoded by rasterizing them according to a series of predetermined encoding parameters to produce an image having a particular line frequency. The line frequency corresponds to the number and spacing of regular line segments into which an image is divided (rasterized). The size and number of divisions determines the frequency (i.e., number of line segments per inch) of the encoded image.
The decoding device of the '717 Patent method and other encoding methods may be a lens, such as a lenticular lens for example, having optical characteristics matching those of an encoded image. In particular, the lenticular lens may be formed with a lens frequency that corresponds to the line frequency of the encoded image. When placed over the encoded image and rotated to a correct angular orientation to align the frequency of the lens to the frequency of the image, the encoded image is decoded, thereby allowing the authentication image(s) to be viewed.
Although the rasterization methods of the '717 Patent are referred to throughout this specification, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that any image encoding method having a set of definable image characteristics relatable to a decoding device with corresponding optical characteristics may be used to produce images for use in conjunction with the illuminated decoders of the present invention.
Likewise, although lenticular lenses are primarily referred to, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that other types of lenses with optical characteristics corresponding to the image characteristics of various encoded images may be used to decode the images.
Decoders and encoded images of matched-frequency are useful in various applications including the security printing and anti-counterfeiting industries. Products such as branded goods or important documents, such as driver's licenses, for example, may be printed to include encoded images having a particular frequency.
In low light situations, decoding encoded images may be made more difficult by the lack of ambient light. This may result in increased difficulty in determining whether an encoded image is present over and above normal decreased viewing ability in low light situations. Additionally, in certain situations, encoded images may be printed in ink that is not visible unless an external light source is used to produce light other than normal visible, ambient light. For example, encoded images may be printed with inks that are only visible when stimulated with ultra-violet or infrared light, which are not typically present in normal ambient light conditions. By using illuminated decoders in accordance with exemplary embodiments of the invention, the additional light source needed to more clearly determine whether an encoded image is present is conveniently provided, providing a faster and more accurate determination of whether an item is genuine.
As used herein, a "lens" is any device capable of altering the character of transmitted or reflected light. As light passes through a lens it undergoes two refractions. Refraction or bending of light occurs as light passes from one medium to another when there is a difference in the index of refraction between the two materials. As the light enters the lens, it passes from air into the lens material. The lens material has a different index of refraction from air causing the light to refract a first time. Then the light travels through the lens. At the other side of the lens, the light again refracts as it goes from the lens to air.
For example, as with the lenticular lens shown in
Any type of lens having optical characteristics matching the encoded image can be used with exemplary embodiments of the present invention. For example, the lens may be a lenticular lens that has a single set of regularly spaced curvatures as shown in
The lens may be made of any transparent material, such as glass or plastic, with a preference for acrylic lenses. Acrylic lenses are typically manufactured using injection molding techniques, using a mold to produce the curvatures of the lens. Other exemplary plastics useful for manufacturing lenses for use with embodiments of the present invention include polycarbonate and polypropylene. Typically, lenses of these materials are embossed with a pattern to produce the desired lens frequency.
To achieve a lens that permits an encoded image to be viewed as an authentication image with a high level of clarity, it may be desirable to have a lens thickness within a tolerance of plus or minus 5/1000 of an inch of the desired thickness to achieve the desired optical characteristics of the lens. Additionally, lenticular lenses typically have a lens frequency pattern accurate to greater than about 90% of the design frequency. For example, in an injection molded lenticular lens, the mold used to create lenses may deteriorate over time such that a lens made using the mold, and particularly the curvatures of the lens, may become deformed during manufacture. As long as about 90% or more the curvatures are properly formed, the lens may continue to provide a desirable level of decoding, although a level of accuracy of about 98% or greater is preferred.
Thus, a lens with a particular lens frequency can be used to decode encoded images with a matching line frequency, such as, by way of example only, by customs agents or private investigators verifying whether certain branded goods are genuine or counterfeit. For a particular branded good, the good's producer may know that it prints encoded images having a particular line frequency onto its product packaging. The producer may assign agents to attempt to decode encoded images on products bearing the brand of the producer using a lens that has a lens frequency corresponding to the line frequency of the encoded image for the product under investigation. If an encoded image is present and thus an authentication image is revealed when the good is viewed through the decoder, the goods' authenticity is verified, while if an image is not present, the goods have been identified as a likely counterfeit.
Often, these investigations may be conducted in environments where ambient light is low, for example, in dimly lit warehouses. In low light situations, it may be difficult to determine whether or not an encoded image is present by viewing through the lens without an additional source of light. By using illuminated decoders in accordance with exemplary embodiments of the invention, the additional light source needed to more clearly determine whether an encoded image is present is conveniently provided, providing a faster and more accurate determination of whether an item is genuine.
Furthermore, using a light source to illuminate the encoded image may improve the overall clarity of the authentication image revealed to a person viewing the image versus one viewing the image through a decoder using only ambient light, even when ambient light is relatively intense.
In order to better view encoded images in low light situations, at least one light source may be associated with the lens, providing an illuminated decoder that casts light onto a surface below the decoder, providing sufficient light to make any encoded image printed thereon viewable. The light source may be any light source, such as one or more light bulbs or light emitting diodes (LEDs) for example.
The light source is associated with the lens to create a single unit, typically through the use of a housing or overlay that attaches to both the light source and the lens. In certain exemplary embodiments, the lens, the light source or both, may be contained within the housing. Unlike the lens, which is substantially transparent in order to view through the lens, the housing is at least translucent, and preferably opaque to keep light from entering or exiting the housing except through apertures designed to permit a viewer to see through the lens. The housing may be manufactured from various materials, but typically comprises one or more injection molded rigid, plastic pieces.
An exemplary embodiment of an illuminated decoder is shown in
The housing 205 has a top wall 264 surrounding the top aperture 262 that acts as a shield so that the light sources 210-240 are partially or fully shielded from the eyes of a person viewing through the illuminated decoder 200 positioned over an encoded image. The top wall 264 or side walls 269 may be configured to direct light toward the bottom aperture 268, such as by a reflective coating applied to an interior surface of the top wall 264 or by modifying the angle of the interior side walls as shown in
An exemplary embodiment of another illuminated decoder is shown in
A cross-sectional view of the illuminated decoder of
As shown in
As described with respect to other exemplary embodiments of the invention, in embodiments where a side wall includes a side aperture, the side aperture may be positioned such that the side wall shields a viewer's eyes from directly viewing the light source when the viewer looks through the illuminated decoder at a surface containing an encoded image. Accordingly, the side aperture is preferably placed at a distance from the top wall that conceals the light sources from direct view.
Often, a lens used to decode encoded images may first need to be rotated to a correct orientation to reveal the authentication image. In some cases, it may not be possible for a user inspecting a good or document to rotate the decoder and still easily see through the illuminated decoder, for example, when using an exemplary embodiment of an illuminated decoder having a single side aperture. As the illuminated decoder is rotated, a user would either have to move along with the decoder to continue viewing through the side aperture, or rotate the item being viewed so that the illuminated decoder, and thus the side aperture, is held in place.
In certain situations, such as inspecting goods in a warehouse, either or both the user and the item under inspection may have limited mobility. To alleviate this problem, two or more top or side apertures may be used, such that the illuminated decoder can be viewed through from more than one direction. Alternatively, yet another embodiment of illuminated decoder, as shown in
A mirror 480 attached to the base section 409 is positioned to reflect light, and hence any authentication image, back through the viewing aperture 470 as the base section 409 and lens 100 are rotated over an encoded image. Depending on the dimensions of the housing 405, and the angle of the mirror 480, it may be necessary to use two or more mirrors to reflect light from the light sources 410-450 back through the side aperture 470 such that an authentication image can easily be viewed.
It should be appreciated that in certain embodiments, the illuminated decoder may be configured so that only the lens 100 rotates, while the entire housing 405 is held in place.
The light source used in various embodiments of the invention may produce any kind of light, including visible, infrared, or ultraviolet light.
It should be appreciated that the light from the light source used in the illuminated decoder must match the type of ink used to print the encoded image for an authentication image to be revealed. For example, various types of ink may be used to print encoded images, including those which can viewed in the visible light range only when first stimulated by non-visible light, such as infrared or ultraviolet light. If the ink used to print encoded images is the type of ink that can only be seen when exposed to infrared light, then the light source must contain light with an infrared component to make the encoded image appear in the visible light range while the decoder reveals the authentication image. Likewise, if the encoded image is printed with cyan ink, then the light must have a visible light component.
In embodiments where light from the light source is other than visible light, it may be particularly desirable to contain as much of that light within the housing as possible. Thus, it may also be desirable to exclude excess ambient light from entering the housing, while still including housing apertures for a person to view through the lens. Ambient visible light may have the effect of diluting the non-visible light from the light source, decreasing the visibility of the encoded image and hence, the revealed authentication image. This may be overcome, for example, by making the housing completely opaque and/or reducing the size of the housing apertures.
Thus, embodiments of the present invention may be particularly advantageous when used to decoded encoded images printed with infrared or ultraviolet inks, as discussed in more detail in copending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/810,000, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, regardless of the intensity of ambient visible light. When these types of inks are used to create the encoded image, the image may not be viewable in visible light at all, regardless of the amount of ambient light, because the ink is not visible unless first stimulated by light outside of the visible range, usually by a particular wavelength of light. By using an illuminated decoder with a light source that produces a particular wavelength of non-visible light that corresponds to the ink used to print the encoded image, the encoded image both appears in the visible light range and is decoded to reveal an authentication image at the same time through the use of the illuminated decoder.
If light outside the visible range is used, the material used for the lens of the illuminated decoder should be selected such that it has a high transmittance of the non-visible light source. For example, some materials have a low transmittance of ultra-violet light. Thus, if the illuminated decoder is used to reveal images printed with ink that appears in the visible range when exposed to ultra-violet light, a lens material should be used that transmits a high percentage of that type of light through the lens. One type of resin useful for making a lens with both a high ultra-violet and infrared transmission is the polymethylmethacrylate available as ACRYLITE H15-012 from Cryo Industries, Woodcliff Lake, N.J., USA. Those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that other resins with high transmittance outside the visible light range are available and could also be used to produce a lens for use in exemplary embodiments of illuminated decoders of the present invention.
Light filters may be added to the illuminated decoder to enhance the visibility of encoded images and make the authentication images more readily viewable when revealed. Examples of filters include additive or subtractive dichoric filters that enhance various colors used to print the encoded image. Likewise, a polarized filter may be used to enhance contrast, making the features of the encoded image more readily visible. The filters may be applied to the lens, to the light source, or across an aperture of the illuminated decoder such that the filters are somewhere within the path of the light as it travels from the light source to the viewer's eye.
In addition to the type of light emitted from the light source, the type of light source itself can be varied. In many cases, the light source may be an LED, incandescent bulb, fluorescent bulb, or halogen bulb. LEDs are preferred because they are typically of small size, but still produce a substantial amount of light versus the amount of power they consume.
Power can be delivered to the light source by any electrical power source, although battery power is preferred to make the illuminated decoder mobile, independent of its proximity to a stagnant power supply, such as an electrical outlet. The power source may be contained within a compartment of the housing of the illuminated decoder to hide it from view. The power supplied to the light source can be switched on or off using a switching device.
The present invention is not to be limited in scope by the specific embodiments described herein. Indeed, various modifications of the present invention, in addition to those described herein, will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art from the foregoing description and accompanying drawings. Thus, such modifications are intended to fall within the scope of the following appended claims. Further, although the present invention has been described herein in the context of a particular implementation in a particular environment for a particular purpose, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that its usefulness is not limited thereto and that the present invention can be beneficially implemented in any number of environments for any number of purposes.

Stoke boss Mark Hughes has delivered promising news on the availability of a number of his players on the eve of the Premier League visit of Manchester City.
Kenwyne Jones, Glenn Whelan and Jonathan Walters picked up knocks during the recent World Cup qualifiers and international friendlies - but Hughes has confirmed that all three are in contention to feature against his former club.
Deadline-day acquisitions Marko Arnautovic and Stephen Ireland could make their debuts, with Marc Muniesa (groin) the only definite absentee.
Manchester City continue to have problems in defence, with influential skipper Vincent Kompany still out with a groin injury.
Left-back Gael Clichy has also been ruled out with a minor knock while fellow defenders Micah Richards (hamstring) and Martin Demichelis (knee) are sidelined.
Aside from Joleon Lescott and Matija Nastasic, Manuel Pellegrini could call on Spanish midfielder Javi Garcia or Belgian youngster Dedryck Boyata.
Up front, in-form Alvaro Negredo is in line for his first start after scoring two goals from the substitutes' bench in City's last two games, while he also scored for Spain in their win over Finland.
But compatriot David Silva has been ruled out after returning from Spain's training camp with a slight hamstring problem.

GMC Ranks Among Top Green Colleges
POULTNEY-- Green Mountain College continues to earn accolades as one of the greenest colleges in the country. GMC received a green rating of 97 on a scale of 60-99 in the 2012 edition of The Princeton Review's Guide to 322 Green Colleges.
Created by The Princeton Review in partnership with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), The Princeton Review's Guide to 322 Green Colleges is a free, comprehensive guidebook profiling institutions of higher education that demonstrate a notable commitment to sustainability in their academic offerings, campus infrastructure, activities and career preparation. The Princeton Review chose the schools for this guide based on a survey of administrators at hundreds of colleges about their school's sustainability initiatives.
GMC is among the outstanding universities and colleges nationwide that are leading the green movement through their own special programs and initiatives.

The Associated Press= Reactions from some countries, the EU and United Nations to clashes between Egyptian security forces and supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi, in which dozens were killed Wednesday.
The White House condemned the violence, saying it will only make it more difficult for Egypt to move forward.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the violence runs counter to the pledges made by Egypt's interim government. He said the "world is watching" what is happening in Cairo and urged restraint.
The Obama administration has avoided making a determination on whether Morsi's ouster was a coup.
The bloc's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, deplored the violence and called for Egypt's security forces to exercise restraint.
"Confrontation and violence is not the way forward to resolve key political issues," she said. "The country's democratic future will depend on a dialogue among all concerned aimed at overcoming differences in an inclusive process of political reconciliation, with a fully empowered civilian government and functioning democratic institutions."
She outlined several key elements to move the process forward, including "peaceful protest, protecting all citizens and enabling full political participation."
Turkey's government, which has been consistently critical of the military-backed ouster of Morsi, harshly criticized the crackdown. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's office called the violence "a serious blow to the hopes of a return to democracy." It also blamed other unnamed countries for encouraging the government after Morsi's ouster on July 3.
Turkish President Abdullah Gul warned that Egypt could descend into chaos, comparing the clashes to the crackdown in Syria that precipitated a civil war.
Turkey itself has been criticized in recent months for heavy-handed police tactics in clamping down on protests against Erdogan's government that included firing tear gas canisters directly at protesters.
Hundreds of Turks in Ankara and Istanbul protested against the crackdown in Egypt.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon denounced the violence and called on all sides to reconsider their actions in light of new political realities and the need to prevent further loss of life.
Ban said he regrets that Egyptian authorities chose to use force to respond to the demonstrations and is "well aware that the vast majority of the Egyptian people want their country to go forward peacefully in an Egyptian-led process towards prosperity and democracy," according to a statement from his office.
Ban urged all Egyptians to focus on reconciliation, the statement said, because he believes that "violence and incitement from any side are not the answers to the challenges Egypt faces."
German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said the government was "extremely worried" about the "very dangerous" escalation of violence, indirectly criticizing the leadership for its crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood while at the same time urging an end to violence.
"We expect from the transitional government and the Egyptian authorities that they allow peaceful demonstrations just as we expect from the other political forces that they distance themselves clearly from violence, that they don't demand violence and don't act violently."
Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman, Steffen Seibert, said the "decisive principle" must be "that the human rights of all Egyptians, independent of their political direction and conviction, have to be respected and protected."
Jordan's Muslim Brotherhood has urged its Egyptian peers to continue protests, saying their victory will help the fundamentalist group rise to power elsewhere in the Arab world.
The Brotherhood's political arm, the Islamic Action Front, also warned Egypt's military rulers they have fallen into a "conspiracy" hatched by the U.S. and Israel to weaken Muslims.
"Today is your day, and upon its outcome, the future of Egypt, Arabs and Muslims will be determined," according to a statement issued before Brotherhood activists staged a protest outside the Egyptian Embassy in Amman.
The protesters rebuked Egypt's military rulers as a "tool for corrupt and tyrant military regimes."
British Prime Minister David Cameron said the violence is "not going to solve anything."
"What is required in Egypt is a genuine transition to a genuine democracy. That means compromise from all sides â the President Morsi supporters but also the military â that's what needs to happen," he said.
"We don't support this violence, we condemn it completely, it's not going to solve the problems."
Cameron added that he was sorry to hear about the death of Sky news cameraman Mick Deane in the violence, saying his thoughts are with Deane's family and friends.
"It is an incredibly brave and important job he was doing. It is essential that cameramen are in places like Egypt because otherwise none of us would know what is happening."
Iran's Foreign Ministry condemned the crackdown, warning the violence "strengthens the possibility of civil war."
"While denouncing the violent crackdown and condemning the massacre of the people, it expresses its deep concern regarding the undesirable consequences" of the events, the ministry said in a statement.
Italian Foreign Minister Emma Bonino appealed to all sides in Egypt to do what they can to immediately stop the explosion of violence and "avoid a bloodbath."
Bonino expressed deep sorrow for the loss of human lives.
"I had expressed the hope that the squares with the sit-ins be emptied" through an agreement among all sides, and "not with the intervention of police forces, which doesn't help the search for a solution to the political crisis," Bonino said.
She added that it was essential that security forces "exercise maximum self-control; likewise, everyone must avoid every incitement to violence." Bonino renewed an appeal for the resumption of a "process of national dialogue."

Sealaska Regional Native Corporation owns about 25-thousand acres of subsurface mining rights in an area being contested by the City and Borough of Juneau and Petersburg.
The area includes Hobart Bay, where Juneau's Native Corporation Goldbelt owns 30-thousand surface acres.
Sealaska Vice President Rick Harris says the company will follow Goldbelt's lead in commenting on the dispute.
"We'll support them in whatever way is necessary to achieve a result that's best for Goldbelt's shareholders and also our shareholders," says Harris.
Juneau plans to file a competing petition to Petersburg's proposed borough boundaries, which includes land previously slated for annexation to the CBJ.
So far, Goldbelt hasn't expressed a preference for which borough, if any, the corporation's land should be in. Earlier this month, Goldbelt Vice President Derek Duncan sent a letter to the state's Local Boundary Commission saying it would make a statement in the near future.
Harris says sand rock and gravel are quite prevalent in Hobart Bay, and that some precious metals are nearby.
"We don't believe that it's on our property," Harris says. "We think that if there's any precious metals, they're actually to the north of our property."
October 26th is the deadline to submit competing petitions and opposing briefs to the state's Local Boundary Commission on Petersburg's proposed borough.
The CBJ Assembly plans to introduce an ordinance Monday to make its petition official.

On the fence about this one. The color is great but something about the formula is off, as other reviewers have noted. I have quite a few Revlon polishes and usually they last about a week before starting to chip. This one started chipping after less than two days, and I hadn't done anything particularly taxing with my hands. I re-applied more carefully to try to get it on thinner, will see how it works this time around.
That said, I do like the color, which is not gray at all but more of a cool taupe. A great alternative to a sheer pink for the office when my nails are looking beat-up. It seems to have some shimmer when wet but dries looking like a very modern creme.
Revlon needs to get its European pricing under control though. I paid 7.99 euro (about $10) for this because I was in a pinch and needed something to cover my crappy-manicure-damaged nails for a job interview... would have cost more like $4.99 at Target back in the States. Damn VAT!

I've never rated a nail polish before. Mostly because I'm not as nail focused as some. But this color is a god send. It has a nice shine, wears well and the color is phenomenal. I'm still surprised by the name though as I don't see the gray as much as some people describe. Maybe it's my coloring (light, slight pink) that gives it more of a versatile slightly cool tan color. A couple healthy coats with a good topcoat and you are good to go for days. Makes nails look finished without being made up. A nice alternative to the umpteen sheer pinks out on the market today! (My little hint for good adhesion....a little swipe of pure acetone before application of base coat. Sticks like glue.)

This is nice nude for those with a tan. There's a soft shimmer that you can't really see. I have to do at least 2 coats.

Ultrapretty low-shine nude with a tinge of grey and understated shimmer. I like that one coat dries in less than 15 minutes, and just makes my nails look "done" without crossing into "overdone." I like to wear this when I travel because it doesn't chip, it just sort of wears away over the course of a week.
Full retail is $5.99 at any grocery or drugstore, but look for sales.

This nail polish is great for the price point. I'm pretty sure I got it on a major sale at CVS. Great color! On me it's a grayish, slightly shimmery nude. With my ORLY bonder rubberized base coat it lasts pretty well; only minor tip wear after 4 or 5 days. Looks simple and classy and doesn't draw attention to itself. Makes my chubby fingers look slimmer and longer, which is always a plus.

Ooohh I had a Revlon coupon so I headed to the store to see what I liked. I saw this and thought, ok, it will be a little over $3 with the coupon and it looks like an interesting shade that I don't have. Maybe because of the name, I expeced it to be like a greige, but it's totally a pretty nude with a tiny hint of pink (verses a brown nude). But I LOVE it!! I put on one coat as a light subtle color and then later put a greyish coat with this on top to achieve a (streaky, but effective) greige and wow, it's really pretty. I doubt I'd need to get another, since I don't go through polishes quickly, but yes, I'd get this again!

I love this color so much that I wear it almost all the time. Whenever I switch things up and wear a different color, I just feel disappointed! This is the perfect nude for me. It looks pretty professional for work, and I've never received so many compliments for a nail color before. It applies well, lasts and dries relatively quickly. It does take 2-3 coats since the first coat is streaky. Definite HG...I will continue to repurchase until they no longer make it.

I've given up on finding a nude shade more perfect than this for my hands. If I don't use it for a while, I forget that it *is* a nude, because it looks gray-mauve in the bottle in many lights. On my nails, though, the very faint lavender cast makes it a better match for my cool, pale skin. There is some extremely subtle shimmer that just serves to make the color creamier, if that makes sense, and less flat -- doesn't read as shimmery. Wears fine, applies well, opaque in two coats. Goes with everything. Understated, but really pretty.

He was later found guilty of fourth-degree assault.
He was ordered to pay a $500 fine.
Albarado has won more than 4,300 races in his career, including the 2007 Preakness Stakes.

After two weeks of training Queens began the pre-season fixtures with a 3-1 win over Clyde at East Kilbride this afternoon. Manager Allan Johnston took the opportunity to cast his eye over eight trialists, two or three of whom had fairly familiar faces for Queens fans, as well as using all his own signed players.
Queens began the match with seven local players on the field. The contest was reasonably well balanced early on but the more time passed, the more on top Queens got and it was no great surprise when Danny Carmichael put Queens ahead ten minutes before the break. The same player had the ball in the net again a minute later but saw it ruled out for offside.
Allan Johnston made no less than ten half time changes whilst our part-time opponents only made a couple so again there were no surprises when the fresher legs seized complete control. Both of our second half goals were scored by Trialists, the first by a familiar looking "tanned" gentleman who played wide left. The third goal was a penalty kick taken by a young Trialist striker after he had himself been upended by the Clyde keeper. The previous "tanned" trialist thought he had added a fourth soon after but it too was ruled out for offside. With just over five minutes to go Pat Scullion headed a consolation goal for Clyde via the foot of the goalpost.
Queens Lined Up:
Lee Robinson (A Trialist,45), A Trialist (A Trialist, 45), Kevin Holt (Pat Slattery 70), Ryan McGuffie (A Trialist, 45), Steven Black (Chris Higgins, 45), Stephen McKenna (A Trialist, 45), A Trialist (I McShane, 45), Danny Carmichael (Nicky Clark, 45), Dan Orsi (A Trialist, 45), Willie Gibson (Kevin Smith,45), Gavin Reilly (A Trialist, 45).

Going into the last two months of the regular season, the American League's Central Division looks like it will be battle to the finish between the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. The Tigers currently trail the Sox by 2.5 games for the top spot in the division.
After a hot streak around the All-Star break, the Tigers have cooled losing six out of their last nine games. The White Sox, however, have won seven of their last nine. The Sox have their work cut out for them as they'll open a home weekend series against one of the hottest teams in the AL, the Los Angeles Angels. The Tigers begin a seven game home-stand that starts with the Cleveland Indians this weekend. The New York Yankees will be in Detroit next week.
If the Tigers can stay even with the Sox through the month of August, they'll have a distinct schedule advantage down the homestretch. Following an important four-game series against the White Sox beginning on September 10, the Tigers will play their final 19 games against Cleveland, Oakland, Minnesota and Kansas City. The Sox will also play the weaker teams in the AL Central down the stretch, but they'll have to play series against the Angels and Rays, two teams that will likely be fighting for a playoff spot.
Although the Tigers have been struggling of late, if they can stay above .500 in the month of August they should be setting themselves up for a run a the division title in September. With so many teams fighting for the two wild-card spots, it's essential that the Tigers earn their playoff berth by winning the division.
It appears that Tigers manager Jim Leyland still hasn't decided on an everyday lineup for the homestretch, as he moved DH Delmon Young down to the six spot and promoted RF Brennan Boesch to the five hole yesterday in Boston. Expect more tinkering to the lineup over the next couple weeks. It's even possible the Tigers could add a right handed bat via waivers before the end of the month.
The Tiger's newest pitcher Anibal Sanchez will look to redeem himself after a shaky first outing with the Tigers last weekend. He'll get the start against Cleveland righty Justin Masterson on Friday. Doug Fister and Max Scherzer will also get starts for the Tigers this weekend. Cleveland trails the Tigers by 5.5 games for the second spot in the division, so this series could be a do-or-die scenario for the Indians.

Salmonellosis, or salmonella, is one of the most common foodborne diseases. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, salmonella causes approximately 1.2 million illnesses in the United States, with 19,000 hospitalizations and 380 deaths.
Salmonella may occur in small, contained outbreaks in the general population or in large outbreaks in hospitals, restaurants, or institutions for children or the elderly.
Children are the most likely to get salmonellosis. The elderly, infants, and those with compromised immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness. People with AIDS are particularly vulnerable, often suffering from recurring episodes.

Hey. Can I name-in menu to a different language – Russian?
Hey there,
I came back from vacation today.
You will need to play with the code to change it to Russian.
Thanks for the reply. I already bought Mater . I will try to change the code.
You are welcome.
Another question. Do not turn off the sound icon on the homepage. Where can I enable this option?
Hey @ueadp,

Checking out this theme. I like the song that is playing in the background. Who sings the song and does it come with the theme?
You can download it here: https://soundcloud.com/sweetwaveaudio/summer-indie-rock-free-track
I really want to buy the theme Ly only question is that the demo on the video backgroung is not working. Is this normal?
Hey there,
I just tested the demo and the video background is ok. Check your internet connection, try again and wait a little bit more.
It is working now. I bookmarked it and will truly consider it when I have a project like this. Thanks for your reply.
You are welcome.
Is it possible to have the background images and songs linked? For example if I switch to a new background image it will automatically play the song I associate with it.
Unfortunately no, @thesloth.
Thanks for asking.
Nice theme. Can I use ubermenu instead of the standard menu? I noticed on Google Chrome the homepage arrows do not show up eg social icons slider. There is only a blank white circle. Thanks.
Hey there,
To be honest, I've never tested UberMenu.
I just tested on Google Chrome and everything looks fine. Can you try again?
Yes, it seems fine now. Strange one.
Since video background playlist is not possible with this theme, is it possible – instead of page video background, can I use a fullscreen homepage fullscreen slider like this one ?http://codecanyon.net/item/responsive-ken-burns-slider-wordpress-plugin/2950062
Can the z-order for this plugin be changed on your theme so that logo, etc appear on topmost layer and slider plays underneath?
Thanks Meydjer.
Hey Xancholy,
I never tested this plugin, but I'm sure you will need to customize the theme code to make it compatible.
Dear Author,
Can you please take a look at my site. I think, something is wrong in my portfolio. The pictures are not loading. When there is only one picture it will shown up, but when I put more pictures in the portfolio, it doesn't load. I deleted almost every plugin I had. But I still got problems. I don't no what went wrong. www.fotomar.nl
Thanks in forward. Tom
(PS sorry for my English)
Hi Maydjer, with Google Crome I can't see arrow (only a black circle) and for example Portfolio is not navigable and I can't exit of portfolio. Thanks.

Hi, I tried to upload video background on the homepage. When loading the video is m4v ogv that does not save. I think they are the characteristics of the video. What parameters should I use for the video in ogv?
Hi! Great theme!
After install the Theme, it works apparently, but when I click at the "Theme Options" in the Admin Menu, a list of errors appears. I guess these errors are about Google Fonts.
How can I fix it?
I send you a print of these errors in http://meydjer.ticksy.com/. My profile is "Eder Oliveira".

Federal judge orders Live Oak County residents to remove dam
CORPUS CHRISTI - A federal judge ruled two Live Oak County residents must remove a private dam built across a creek that feeds into the Nueces River because it violates the Clean Water Act.
Corpus Christi Water Director Gus Gonzalez called the ruling a victory for city water rights. The dam affects how much water the city is able to release from Lake Corpus Christi when the lake levels reach capacity.
Landowner Mike Brink, who spent $70,000 to build the dam with neighbor Dr. Steven Kalter, said he isn't happy with the decision. Brink bought the ranch with his wife about five years ago. She raises horses and he tends to the land. The two plan to retire there.
"It's going to be extremely expensive and allow my ranch to keep eroding into the river," he said. "It's kind of a life-changing thing."
Brink owns 200 acres off County Road 356. He began construction during summer 2009 on a dam across La Para Creek, near where it flows into the Nueces River, hoping to slow erosion on his property.
Brink said he asked the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for permission to build the dam. He didn't realize he needed a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The Corps asked Brink and Kalter to remove the dam. They said they owned the property and refused. The Corps filed a federal lawsuit July 20 that said the dam blocks important fresh water inflows to the Nueces River, Lake Corpus Christi, the Nueces estuary system and ultimately Corpus Christi Bay.
U.S. District Judge Janis Graham Jack ruled this week Kalter and Brink must remove the dam, made of steel and concrete, and restore the area to its pre-construction condition. They must submit a timetable for the removal within 15 days.

The annual Every Goal series will run Monday to Thursday through July and August, remembering every goal scored by the Canucks, player by player. Today, we take a look at Maxim "PaRappa the Rappiere" Lapierre.
Maxim Lapierre was a different player for the Canucks last season than the one they acquired at the trade deadline the year prior. It was partially his doing, as he committed to fighting his own battles more often and bringing more energy. But it was also partially due to his usage, as the Canucks deployed him primarily as a winger.
It was a bit of a head-scratcher, as Lapierre acquitted himself quite well as the third line centre during the Canucks' run to the Stanley Cup Final. You'd have thought he proved himself as a centre in Vigneault's system. But with a handful of other centres to accomodate, it wasn't hard to see why Vigneault moved him to wing.
It wasn't hard to see why Vigneault liked him at wing either. He was effective, causing turnovers, creating scoring chances, and succeeding regardless of what line he landed on. At one point, Lapierre was on pace for 10 fights and 10 goals. He didn't quite get there, but 8 fights and 9 goals is nothing to sneeze at.
Come to think of it, it's rude to sneeze at pretty much anything. Cover your mouth when you sneeze. Anyway, here's every goal Maxim Lapierre scored last season.
Lapierre's first goal of the season is also the Canucks' first goal of the season. The goal is an absolute gift from Marc-Andre Fleury (a rare occurrence back then, and Fleury throws the puck away afterward in disgust). Lapierre puts a puck towards the goal and it trickles between Fleury's legs like a… nevermind. Anyway, let's give Lapierre a little credit for his hustle here, as he forces a turnover coming out from behind the Penguins' net to gain possession of the puck.
Speaking of hustle, this goal is all about it. Lapierre flies into the Capitals' zone, pouncing on the puck before Tomas Vokoun and putting it towards the goal. Just like on his first, Lapierre gets lucky and it somehow manages to find its way past Vokoun. Extra credit to Alex Semin, who watches Lapierre pass him by like a boss.
No doubt feeling like he can do no wrong after two delectably lucky goals, Lapierre keeps on a 2-on-1 with Chris Higgins, then slowly outwaits the sprawling defender and nonchalantly beats Vokoun a second time. Let's also take a moment to note Alex Semin coming back hard. Granted, he accomplishes nothing and winds up blowing right by the play, but there goes that "lazy Russian" stereotype.
If you thought Lapierre showed some serious hustle on his second goal, you thought wrong. He's the real Van McCoy on this one, forcing a turnover behind the goal, getting his centring pass blocked, then forcing another turnover, collecting a Mike Smith rebound and fighting off a check to score on a nifty backhand. What a keener.
This time it's Chris "Kiss Huggins" Higgins doing the hustling, as he chases the puck into the Blue Jackets' zone, slows his man up by tripping him, then takes the puck behind the goal and centers for Lapierre. I love the way the line celebrates on this goal. Malhotra's jaw nearly falls off, you can hear Lapierre hooting the moment he scores, and Kiss Huggins demonstrates why we've given him that nickname.
Lapierre gets lucky twice over on this goal. First, there's the good fortune of being able to pounce on this puck during the goalmouth scramble. Second, there's the good fortune of having Cody Hodgson on his line — Hodgson somehow manages to poke this puck over to him. I like the moment where Shorty asks the question and Garrett falls dead silent, rendered speechless by that level of insight.
Marc-Andre Gragnani may not have done enough to convince the Canucks he warranted keeping, but it's not as though he was without skill. He shows great hands and vision on this play, corralling a puck along the boards by kicking it to his stick, then making a nice dangle before finding Lapierre cutting through the slot. Speaking of great hands, this is far and away Lapierre's best snipe in a Canucks' uniform. Unlike the Blade trilogy, he's not known for his snipes.
With Daniel Sedin sitting the rest of the regular season out with a concussion, Alain Vigneault made the curious decision to replace him with Lapierre. The result was not unlike the result Vigneault tends to get regardless of who he puts on the Sedin line: successful. But Lapierre earns this goal, fighting off his man to get at Henrik's remarkable backhand lob pass and banging it home. That pass, man. I've seen tennis players that can't backhand lob like that.
This looks like Mason Raymond's goal at first — and he even runs the gauntlet of fist-pumps like it is, because he needs the affirmation — but it never touches him. It actually goes off Sheldon Brookbank, who attempts to fist-bump the puck as it's going by and instead pounds it into his own goal.Tags: Every Goal, every goal 2011-12, Maxim Lapierre
Anyway, let's give Lapierre a little credit for his hustle here, as he forces a turnover coming out from behind the Capitals' net to gain possession of the puck
Just to let you know, he's playing against the Penguins there.
Also "you can heart Lapierre hooting the moment he scores:" I'm assuming hear; but in all non grammar replys, I love having him on our team.
Do I win anything for these corrections?
Wear did all thees englush teechers cum frum?
We all see the errors but for pete's sake can we stop all the comments about the grammar and not the content. I for one, during the dry spell that we call summer, appreciate the content and couldn't give a puck that it was hear and not heart. What do you want a gold star?
Maybe it is appropriate – as that (heart) is what Lapi is all about.
I'm loving the announcer on the first goal, at first taking all credit from Lapierre ("He just threw it at the net! It's a fluke goal! But it counts!") and then feeling sorry and compensating him by inventing a brand new word to describe him and the Canucks, "workmanlikeship", which could be that state you get in when you've been hustling so hard your words come out wrong a little bit.

Monday, June 24, 2013
A local news anchor was contacted by a man on Facebook stating that he had a story idea for her.
When she asked for the details he began saying things that made her feel uncomfortable, a police report said. One message to her read, "How can I benefit from being your friend? Not interested in being a Facebook friend, and you are cute. But I am not interested in a relationship or a liaison. And I know where you lived."
After getting this message he then called the station and said he had been wrongfully convicted of rape, spent several years in the brigg and said he was listed on the sex offender list as a pedophile and that was not accurate.
The news anchor then contacted the solicitor's office and was advised that the information was accurate and that she should not have any further contact with this man.
The police report was made because this man has a history of violence and the man insisted on seeing the news anchor in person. She wanted officers to let the man know not to contact her again.
Police spoke to the man and explained that he is to leave her alone. He said he understood and that making her uncomfortable was not his intention.

|The most helpful critical review
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful:
By Dominic from USA on 2010-04-30 20:19:43Things I liked:Plenty of power, very accurate and a joy to shoot. The trigger is excellent and breaks cleanly. Mine loves Beeman Kodiak and JSB Exact pellets (.22 caliber). With practice you can hammer nails at 20+ yards with this one! Definitely one of my favorite rifles.
Things I would have changed:This rifle is a bit long and I removed the stock sights as I prefer a scope. Although I would prefer a metal trigger, I have used my rifle regularly for three years (thousands of rounds) and have no complaints, trigger or otherwise.
What others should know:Beeman Kodiaks or JSB Exacts work very well (very good accuracy and more punch with the Kodiak, exceptional accuracy w/ the JSB Exacts). With the Beeman Kodiaks, this rifle will put a clean hole through a 3/4" pine board at 50 yards and still penetrate a second pine board deep enough so that the pellet skirt is barely (or not) visible. The rifle is well made, and a recommended purchase! You won't be disappointed! Scope it!

By john from USA on 2011-07-25 21:18:26Things I liked:Fantastic bluing, INCREDIBLE trigger (consequently it can be SCARY light like mine), but is the smoothest most butteriest, breaks-like-glass and is as predictable as any 2 stage adjustable trigger I have used. Fit and finish of wood is on par with some firearms, if not better than most. The availability of an 11mm dovetail front sight for use of some globe sights is a nice feature for shooters like myself, that LOVE peep sights. VERY heavy, but this is an advantage when using the artillery hold. Pushes any pellet I've used, even some custom poured BoarHog pellets made by Hurricane, proprieter of AirgunSpace dot calm. Squishy butt stock pad. :) This rifles accuracy is spot on at all distances I use for hunting, out to 50yds to edge of property. Headshots are easily achieved.
Things I would have changed:It's a springer, need I say more? It's a springer. The only improvement beyond a GAS spring is to make this a PCP, which I will discuss more below. Why have 2 positions for rear sights? Sometimes too many options is just overkill. Scoop the area on the trigger to fit a finger, just a preference really. Adjust the angle of the grip so its a bit more vertical, moving towards a pistol grip. The angle it is at now is uncomfortable for me as it forces me to torque my wrist at a strange angle. Today's magnum springers are hard on scopes, it seems to me that they should have weaver attachments. Yes they are more expensive, but the cost is negated by reducing scope creep nearly 100%. 11mm dovetails just don't cut against a heavy springer even with scope stop screws.
What others should know:Despite my low scores and somewhat critical "springer" complaint, this gun is awesome.... for a springer. I say this because PCP's are the way of the future, and even then, gas springs are far more efficient and last longer than spring coils, which the 350 Mag is, a spring coil. My low marks for value is simple: you can get an awesome PCP for the same price and NEVER have to worry about spring recoil, fatigue, torsion, barrel droop and cocking effort, that and I scored mine at a pawn shop for $125. FINAL REVIEW: It is a VERY nice and well made rifle. Should you be put off or priced out by the initial cost of PCP's, then this rifle is a fantastic choice for the discerning small game hunter. You will NOT be disappointed with this rifle, I most definitely am not, but when you compare it next to a PCP it just can't shine as brightly. Regardless, this is a permanent addition to my airgun collection and I have no intentions of selling it. Oh yeah, it's made in Germany, you know those Germans make good stuff... like shamwow and beer.
