April Sports Car Sales: Challenger is Only Muscle Car With Sales Increase
Ford is destroying GM and it looks like ford will be the sales leader of 2013 !!
Adam should also be a Buick!
How can this be? They sold over 15 CTS-V coupes and 2 dozen ZR1s...This is the part where they pay big for that aborted Malibu mess -- a do or die operation -- and GM sucked it.
MT kind of fails to mention here that a lot of the lower profit is due to the fact that so much of the lineup is getting refreshed... retooling and plant downtime, especially on trucks and luxury cars that drive profits is pretty expensive...
Seriously?!?! Did you not read the article? GM Europe lost money not North America. GM north America is leading the country in Profit and if I remember market share also. So no, to answer you idiotic comment, the Average Malibu, which still gives them over 20k units sold a month, did not hold them down.

Susan Sarandon, left, and Melissa McCarthy turn on the raunch in 'Tammy.' Michael Tackett, New Line Cinema
- Filed Under
Comedy's smutty/silly/sleazy season has erupted.
Hollywood is presenting a shocking 15 R-rated yuk-fests on its crucial summer slate, which started last week with Elizabeth Banks playing a woman after a one-night stand in Walk of Shame. The raunch resumes Friday as Zac Efron and Seth Rogen do battle in the booze-and-pot-fueled Neighbors, and it continues non-stop through Aug. 13, when Damon Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson gun for fake-out gags in Let's Be Cops.
Why the veering toward vulgarity? Given a movie calendar crowded with tent-pole movies featuring PG-13-rated superheroes, makers ...

China to step up social media censorship
Posted By kurtnimmo On October 26, 2011 @ 10:26 am In Old Infowars Posts Style,Police State | Comments Disabled
October 26, 2011
China has vowed to intensify controls on social media and instant messaging tools, in the highest-level official response to the extraordinary surge in microblogging in the country.
The communique from the Communist party central committee follows growing boldness among users, who have discussed sensitive topics, highlighted scandals and attacked official abuses or inefficiency.
This summer's high-speed rail crash in Wenzhou led to an outpouring of fury on microblogs about the handling of the disaster. That spilled over into mainstream media.
China already has the most extensive and sophisticated internet control system in the world. But censors have struggled to keep up with the flow of information on popular microblogs. The number of registered users on domestic services reached 195 million by the end of June, triple the figure of six months earlier, according to the China Internet Network Information Centre.

Mozzarella and Pepper Cooler-Pressed Sandwiches
- 1 (5-ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained and roughly chopped
- 1 pinch hot-pepper flakes (optional for kids)
- 1 tablespoon roughly chopped Italian parsley, or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano (optional for kids)
- 1 (6-ounce) container bocconcini in oil (or 3/4 cup fresh mozzarella in oil, torn into pieces), undrained
- 1/2 thin 18-inch baguette, sliced lengthwise, interior crumb removed
1. In a medium bowl, combine the first four ingredients (including the bocconcini's or mozzarella's marinade).
2. Fill the baguette with the mixture.
3. Close the baguette and wrap it tightly in waxed paper, then in aluminum foil.
4. Place the sandwich at the bottom of the cooler so the weight of the other contents compresses the sandwich and allows the juices to soak into the bread.

In addition to its documented help in preventing skin cancer, it turns out that sunscreen has an aesthetic quality as well: used daily, it can diminish the appearance of wrinkles by 24 percent.
In a study of 900 young and middle-aged men and women spanning nearly five years, Australian researchers discovered no detectable skin aging in those who applied sunscreen daily, as opposed to the appearance of sun-induced wrinkles among those who didn't.
Researchers at the Queensland Institute of Medical research divided the study population into two groups, with the first applying SPF15+ sunscreen every day on their faces, necks, hands and arms. The second group used sunscreen either rarely, or not at all. In all, the test period stretched over four and-a-half years.
The study didn't involve those over the age of 55, in order to ensure that any appearance of aging could be attributed more to environmental factors (like sun exposure) than to the onset of genetics-related aging.
In order to gauge the appearance of wrinkles over time, the study even had Silicone impressions taken from the backs of all participants' hands, both at the beginning and the end of the trial.
Once the results were measured, the research reflected a difference of 24 percent in the appearance of wrinkles between the two groups.
"This has been one of those beauty tips you often hear quoted, but for the first time we can back it with science: protecting yourself from skin cancer by using sunscreen regularly has the added bonus of keeping you looking younger," said Professor Adele Green of the Queensland Institute. "And the study has shown that up to middle age, it's not too late to make a difference."

With most of mountain biking's cross country stars in London for the Olympic Games, it's top endurance riders were on hand in Leadville, CO for the Leadville 100. CFR riders Jeremiah Bishop, Tinker Juarez and Alex Grant lined up with a very strong field that included multi-time world champion Christoph Sauser, past marathon world champion Alban Lakata and multi-time La Ruta winner Federico Ramirez.
There was some discussion prior to the race among the top contenders about trying to break Levi Leipheimer's course record, set in 2010. This would be no easy task but if there ever was a field assembled to do so this was it.
Saturday morning at 6:30 am sharp almost 2,000 racers left Leadville to the sound of a shotgun. After a few miles on pavement, the course turned to dirt and thoughts of a course record quickly became questionable as heavy rains the night before had left some mud and large puddles on the track. It dried out once the race hit the climbs and after an hour of hard racing a lead group of seven riders had formed at the front, including Bishop, Grant, Sauser, Lakata and Ramirez. The lead group was trading work well and seemed to be distancing themselves from the field.
That's when the unexpected happened. A mis-marked turn sent the leaders well off course, and they climbed a fire road for almost 15 minutes before realizing that something was wrong and turned around. As they descended it became evident that other riders had followed suit and soon enough a large group of riders was backtracking. At one point the course became visible across a field, and a small group of riders hopped a fence and ran through a river to gain the course. Most riders continued back to the point where they went wrong and continued on, including Bishop, Grant and the rest of the previous lead group. There was chaos on course though, as the riders that had taken the short cut gained almost eight minutes over those who went back. It was a messy situation, but once the dust settled and the chase began in earnest the heavy hitters came to the front, though thoughts of a course record were long out the window.
Jeremiah Bishop proved to be on exceptional form and made it over the infamous Columbine Mine climb with Lakata and Sauser. He would ultimately stay with them until mile 75 where Alban Lakata made a move that even Sauser could not answer and solo'd in for the win. Christoph finished second while Jeremiah turned in a Leadville personal best of 3rd place! Bishop was happy with his ride. "All those nights in the altitude tent worked! That's the best I have felt at altitude. It was a good ride, I am happy" he remarked at the finish.
Behind the leaders Grant had a hard time regaining focus after getting so far off course but rode a steady race to finish inside the top ten. After finishing 3rd here last year he was hoping for another top five but it wasn't to be. "I felt great early and made the lead selection, but going so far off course took a lot of the wind out of my sails. At least Jeremiah was able to assume my 3rd place from last year" said Grant.
Juarez was also on a pretty good day, making one of the first chase groups after the early climbs. During the chaos that ensued around the mis-marked turn he was one who had taken the short cut to get back on course, and was therefore in the first group on course for the middle portion of the race. After the race played out, and the officials delegated a seven minute time addition to all riders who had taken that route, he still ended up with a 14th place finish. Ever the competitor, Tinker said that he had wanted a top ten but it was not his day.
All three riders chose the Flash 29 with a Lefty fork, citing that as the perfect Leadville setup.

Great Price, Great Way to Try These!
By Melanie
from Mississauga, ON
This set was gifted to my MIL on the day she went home after a two week holiday stay with us. I am already a Devoted Deb fan, and my MIL tried the Ultimate Cloths one day when she was helping me dust. She couldn't believe the results! I wanted to share. These sets are good to keep in the gift cupboard.
Love this product
By Sophie
from Orillia, Ontario
I ordered this kit because cleaning surfaces without use of chemicals is very important to me. My windows, computer screens, sunglasses, jewellery, all of these items come clean quickly and to perfection. Definitely a staple in the cleaning cupboard!
great product
By razor
from Banff AB.
cleans like the larger cloths. I cleaned my computer monitor and it looks great. I cleaned my eye glasses and they smeared and left water spots, but when they dried were crystal clear except with a little smudge which got cleaned off with another swish of the cloth.

By Sheila
from Abbotsford BC
These are the best cloths we have ever used! I bought them and loved them so much, bought another package so we had lots. Our adult children have all tried them and are totally sold - they have young children and this cuts the cleaning time in half. They are unbelievable on everything but the best thing ever for stainless appliances! My sister in California had me order several packages and she has given them to all her kids who all love them!
The BEST cleaning cloths!!!
By loogin
from BC
I use these on everything!!! Chrome, glass, mirrors, computer, ceramic tiles and fine china etc. There are really too many things to list. The cloth cleans streak free & lint free. You really only need to use water and nothing else. I haven't washed floors with it but you probably could if you wanted to. I do not have any complaints about the cloths.

The Warriors started with some strong defence in centre field as both sides settled into the game, pressuring the Brig carriers into drifting sideways and limiting their yardage.
A strong carry from Nathan Power earned a quick play the ball and Danny Wilkins spotted a gap on the right. He fended away from a couple of players before racing down the touchline, arcing back to score under the posts, giving Joe Weston an easy conversion. Leyland continued to attack with confidence and strong running saw Joe Kirkby go close to scoring on two occasions.
Brig continued to run towards the edges but some excellent tackling from Michael Stack and Matthew Grayston kept them at bay and on the back of this defence Robert Stack made a storming break down field. From this, James O'Neill and Nathan Burns moved the ball quickly to the right and Jake Morton stepped back inside on a great line to crash over next to the sticks, Weston again converting.
The Bulldogs continued to press but the Warriors tackled well and worked hard from marker. When Brig did manage to break the Warriors line just before half-time, Weston made a textbook tackle from fullback.
Strong carries from Wilkins and Will Douglas took Leyland up to halfway before Robert Stack powered onto the ball, breaking several tackles and fending the fullback to race clear for a try, Weston again adding the extras.
Leyland's tackling remained impressive, with a huge shot from Robert Stack forcing a turnover and on the next tackle, Wilkin burst onto the ball and shrugged off the defenders before sprinting under the posts to make Weston's kick a formality.
With just a few minutes to go, the Bulldogs made a break and squeezed over for a try in the corner. From the restart, a couple of silly penalties set up the position for the Bulldogs to score a further consolation try in the dying seconds.
A composed performance from the young Warriors who dominated the vast majority of the game but must remember to keep focussed right up to the final whistle.

The BRZ is good looking, fun to drive, and quick. (One of the auto enthusiast magazines clocked 0-60-mph times in the low six-second range.) But it isn't acceleration or blindingly fast speed that you want with a sports car like the BRZ. You want crisp handling and predictable control, and that's exactly what it delivers. That's probably why demand for the car worldwide has been so incredible!
Yes, I Want One!
The BRZ is a great 2+2 sports car. It's not so muscular or twitchy that you would avoid using it as a daily driver. The BRZ would excel in that role, then give you a competent performer for weekend activities such as … say … autocrossing. Autocrossers, let us know!
The reviews of this car have been phenomenal! See for yourself. Search online for road tests and driving impressions by the automotive press.

Notes from the Archives
Frank C. Furlong, MD
A former President of the Albany Medical College Alumni Association, Dr. Furlong was born in Italy in 1890 and a year later moved with his family to the United States. Following his internship at Albany Memorial Hospital, Dr. Furlong continued the last two years of his internship at Blackwell's Island Workhouse (now Roosevelt Island). In 1917, he started a medical practice in Poughkeepsie, NY until 1930, when he traveled overseas to Vienna for postgraduate work in otorhinolaryngology and later studied at Harvard University Medical School in laryngology. Following his postgraduate work he started a private practice in otorhinolaryngology in Schenectady, NY.
Did you know….?
In the early days of the College, students were required to buy tickets for all aspects of their medical education, including admission to the medical school lectures and working in the lab and dissecting rooms. Students could buy a lab and dissecting room ticket for $5 each. The lecture tickets ranged from $10 to $13 for each subject or $100 for a perpetual ticket.
To graduate from medical school, the candidate had to be 21 years of age, possess a certificate from a physician or surgeon indicating that the candidate had studied with the physician for three years, have attended two full courses of lectures, deliver and defend a thesis on some medical subject, and pass an examination on several branches of medicine and surgery.
Maurice Joseph Lewi, M.D.
Dr. Lewi's motto was "Live happily and you will die happily." At 96 he was still "smoking 12 cigars a day, playing poker into the early morning hours, and working a ten-hour day as president of the Long Island University College of Podiatry."
Often pictured with a cigar in hand, Dr. Maurice Joseph Lewi, lived a very long and productive life. Born into a large family on December 1, 1857, Maurice was the sixth of fourteen children born to Bertha and Joseph Lewi. Following his high school graduation, Lewi flirted with the idea of becoming a journalist, however after some study in this area, he decided to follow in his father's footsteps and enter the field of medicine. He graduated from Albany Medical College with the class of 1877 and immediately served on the staff of Albany Hospital. As was the norm during this period, he was sent to Europe for postgraduate study at the Universities of Heidelberg and Vienna. Upon his return to Albany, he entered the practice of medicine as well as teaching posts at Albany Medical College and Albany Law School. Dr. Lewi tried to incorporate new, European teaching methods into his courses at Albany Medical College, much to the criticism of his fellow faculty members. As a result of the rebuke, he resigned from the College and instead concentrated on making educational changes on the state level. His time as Secretary of the Committee on Legislation of the New York State Medical Society and Secretary of the New York State Board of Medical Examiners led to his participation in many improvements and changes in medical education. During his long life, he wrote numerous scientific articles, was highly active in professional organizations, and was responsible for improvements in public health methods.
A pioneer in the field of podiatry, Lewi founded the New York School of Chiropody, later named First Institute of Podiatry, then Long Island University College of Podiatry (now the New York College of Podiatric Medicine). He became the first President of the College in 1913, and remained there until his death on May 27, 1957. Following his death, the Long Island University College of Podiatry was renamed the M.J. Lewi College of Podiatry in his honor, and in 1972, received its present name, the New York College of Podiatric Medicine.
Of the many interesting and historical items and collections in the Albany Medical College Archives, one of particular interest is the Albany Medical College Theses collection. When Albany Medical College was first established in 1839, part of the requirements for a medical degree was to write a thesis on a particular medical subject. The collection contains theses from graduates dating from 1839-1891. The varying topics of the theses from the collection include bloodletting, cholera, abortion, conjunctivitis, sclerosis of the liver, anesthesia, and many others. The students then had to be prepared to defend the thesis at their examination. During that time period, the theses were handwritten and many students produced intricate and artistic title pages, such as the one above.
|John W. Houser, MD
AMC Class of 1875
(b. 1856, d.1929)
A native of Pennsylvania, John W. Houser's interest in medicine emerged from his work with pharmaceuticals. Following his short career in the drug industry he began the study of medicine with Dr. W.E. Allen, (AMC 1856) as his preceptor. He graduated from Albany Medical College in 1875 and returned to Pennsylvania to start a private practice. He had a wide range of medical skills that were put to great use in his native state. These skills allowed him to tend to coal mine accident victims, pregnant women, and those in need of surgery. In addition to his typical physician duties he also served as medical officer for the Ransom Township poor farm and was the first to give students the diphtheria toxin-antitoxin injections as school physician in the Taylor, PA schools. His wide range of interests extended to politics and he was even a candidate for sheriff. In an address to fellow alumni at his fiftieth reunion in 1925, he wrote fondly of his time at Albany Medical College stating, "It was my privilege to obtain instructions and listen to the lectures of those wonderful men (the old faculty) who made the Albany Medical College what it is today. Armsby, one of the greatest surgeons of his time . . . Billy Hailes (Anatomy Professor) was a brother to all of us . . . and Professor Henry Haskins (Anatomy) was the greatest anatomist I ever knew."
William P. Howard, MD
An Albany native, Dr. William P. Howard was born in Albany in 1892 and educated in the Albany Public Schools. After his graduation from Albany Medical College, he became interested in Radiology and Orthopedic Surgery. During WWI, Dr. Howard served in the Medical Officers Reserve Corps and joined Base Hospital #33 as a Radiologist. Following the war he came to Albany and taught at the College, eventually becoming the Head of the Department of Radiology. In addition to his duties as Department Head, he also had a private practice in Radiology and Orthopedic Surgery, as well as serving as President of the Alumni Association.
Dr. Frederick C. Curtis
Dr. Frederick C. Curtis was the first Professor of Dermatology at Albany Medical College. During the 19th century most physicians were general practitioners, specialty practice did not exist in many places. Therefore, a physician often had an interest in a particular field and could become the specialist for a geographical area. This was the case with Dr. Curtis. Dr. Curtis was born in 1843 in South Carolina. He moved with his family to Canaan, New York in 1850. He graduated from Beloit College in Wisconsin and completed his medical studies at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of New York in 1870, followed by postgraduate work in Vienna. Following his return to the United States in 1872, he settled in Albany to join the practice of Dr. W.H. Bailey. During this time he became interested in dermatology and was offered a course at Albany Medical College in dermatology. Dr. Curtis was also highly involved with public health, serving as a sanitary investigator for the State Board of Health as well as a consultant for New York State in dermatology.
Did you know……. ?
The Albany Medical College Yearbook, The Skull, was not published from 1917-1946. It is unclear why there was a break in publication. Many speculated the break was connected with the newly appointed Dean Ordway, and his strict running of the College, including tight censorship of the yearbook content.
In 1958, Albany Medical College began its own radio station, WAMC-FM (currently WAMC Northeast Public Radio), with the transmitter on the top of Mt. Greylock in Adams, Massachusetts. The radio station was the next step in the College's Two-Way Radio program used to bring continuing education programs to physicians.

His mother and father as noted were Eulalia Bustos and Lorenzo Gutierrez. I believe Eulalia born around 1878 was from the La Junta, Colorado area and Lorenzo born around 1880 was from Tercio, Colorado. I'm looking for anything for them, parent's names, siblings anything! I have tons of information from them down if anyone needs it. I have a picture with my great grandfather Lorenzo from 1981 when I was 2 before he passed at the nursing home in Trinidad CO.

Chapter 14: Finding Time to Sit Alone
It is taken for granted that I am speaking to those who are a hundred percent concerned and dedicated to what should be regarded as the ultimate purpose of life. We are not discussing what usually goes by the name of an ordinary good life or a virtuous life of the public attitude, or a so-called righteousness that keeps us going in the world. This is a very serious subject that we are discussing. It is almost a kind of life-and-death matter for those who can realise its importance.
But, it is difficult to bring into one's mind its seriousness on account of the inveterate sluggishness of human thinking. The sheep that are being driven to the butcher shop have no idea as to what is going to happen to them. They eat well, become fat, and bleat in the usual manner, not knowing that they are heading towards their doom. Such is the fate of the majority of mankind. But, some sheep may be awakened: "My fate is terrible!" And then it is that one begins to do whatever is possible under the circumstances. We have to be very, very cautious, and forethought should be our watchword.
There is an old, humorous story about forethought – how we have to connect one event with another event and realise that something is going to happen in the future; it may be in the far-off future. It appears that an ancient king was fond of rearing monkeys. That was his hobby, his diversion. He used to collect all varieties of monkeys, and feed and maintain them in his palace. They were huge monkeys. In the palace, there was also a flock of sheep; and it appeared that one sheep used to run into the palace kitchen every day and try to snatch some eatable. The cook would drive it away by giving it a clout on the head. Every day this sheep would rush into the kitchen, and the cook would beat it with a stick whenever it entered.
The leader of those monkeys in the palace observed this phenomenon. It summoned all its brethren and said, "My dear brethren, we are in danger! We have to quit this palace immediately. Our life itself is perhaps going to be in serious danger."
All the monkeys asked, "What is this danger? We are taken care of so nicely, fed so beautifully; we have no botheration or worry about food – which we may have if we are in the forest. What trouble? What danger?"
The leader monkey said, "I cannot explain to you all this, but we are in serious danger. We must leave this place immediately. We should not live in this palace any more."
The other monkeys asked, "What is the matter? Why do you say that we are in danger?"
Then the leader said, "Listen to me. There is a sheep here which runs into the kitchen of the king every day and gets a beating from the cook; and it is so foolish that in spite of the beating, it goes every day. Now, one day the cook will get so angry with it, he will beat it with a piece of burning firewood. In his anger, he will not know what he is beating it with; he will simply strike it with a firebrand. Then, what will happen? The wool of the sheep will catch fire. In panic it will run hither-thither and enter the stable where the king's horses are tied. And there is dry grass in the stable, which will catch fire. The fire will burn the horses, which are so dear to the king. They will be scalded, burnt because of the fire. Then, a report will go to the king: "Oh, Lord! Your horses are all half dead. Their skin is all burnt off."
"Oh, God!" he will say, "They are very costly horses, and they are so necessary for me. Now, what is this? All the skin is burnt like this! What is the remedy?"
"My dear children," the leader monkey said, "There is only one remedy – the fat of monkeys. Now you know the danger."
"Oh! Old man!" these monkeys said, "You have no brain or anything. Foolishly you are thinking something, connecting something out of nothing. All this is vain thought in your head. We are well taken care here of by the king. We shall not leave this place. If you want to go, you go."
The leader said, "All right. I have given my advice. I am quitting." That very day the leader monkey left, and whatever was predicted by this monkey happened. All the monkeys were boiled, and their essence was taken and smeared over the burnt bodies of the horses. Well, the story goes on further. We are not concerned with the end of the tale, as it is a different subject.
This is a story given in our fables for illustrating forethought. Apparently, it has no meaning – from one thing we are connecting another thing. But forethought is also the capacity to connect causes with effects, and effects with causes. Pigheadedness cannot be regarded as wisdom. Seekers of truth though we may be, our sympathy for living the life of truth may be only in the lips, because we are well fed in the palace of the king. What is the trouble? We have got our daily meal. We have got our clothes. We have got our house. We have got our friends. We have got every sort of comfort. Where comes the need for living a life of truth in a peculiar, far-fetched manner, in the Upanishadic sense? This is what these small monkeys told the leader monkey: "Why are you blabbering all these things, while everything is wonderful in this world?"
But, you do not know; the day will come when you will be boiled, cooked by the fire of time, and the same fate of the monkeys will be the fate of mankind. Before that happens, would it not be wisdom on the part of farsighted persons to look into aspects which would be practicable in freeing ourselves from this possible danger? Danger is everywhere. We are living in a world of danger, from every side. That we are not harassed with the thought of death or destruction every moment does not mean that it is far off or away from us.
Maranam prakritih saririnam vikritir jivitam uchyate budhaih. When the queen of King Aja – a great emperor of the solar race in India – died of an accident, the king wept and beat his breast and went to his preceptor, Vasishtha: "Oh! My queen is dead. I am feeling that life itself is worthless. What is your advice?"
Vasishtha gave a very short reply, "Your highness! That you are subject to death is no wonder. That you are living is a wonder." Maranam prakrtih saririnam vikrtir jivitam uchyate budhaih. This is all he said. This is a sloka from Raghuvamsa of Kalidasa. This is what Buddha also said – that the apparent security of life is an illusion. Everything is insecure in this world; that is the truth of the matter. This is not merely Buddha's statement or discovery, or the wisdom of Vasishtha, but also the conclusion of great stalwarts in modern science. We do not know science, we do not know philosophy, we do not know anything – nor do we want them, because we are happy.
But, this happiness is itself going to be our foe. The comfort and the joy which is apparently around us is going to be the cause of our own ruin, because this joy is not real. The circumstances of life, which make us feel that everything is all right for the time being, are subject to dissection, disunion and disintegration. Whatever experience we have in life is the outcome of our personal relationship with certain conditions prevailing in the world outside. These conditions are not permanent, and they cannot be permanent. Every cell of the body changes; every moment, we are subject to transformation in the entire structure of our body. There is a perpetual vehement movement of every atom of this body, as it is the case with every object in this world outside. Everything revolves, rotates, vehemently moves, for a purpose which no one can understand. Even an inorganic stone is supposed to be constituted of minute particles which are vehemently active – even inside an apparently static stone. There is no such thing as a static object in this world. Everything is moving – and very ferociously moving, for some purpose which you or I cannot understand.
Now, our experiences are brought about by certain associations of the conditions of our body with the conditions of things outside. Sometimes, the frequency or intensity of the conditions of the world outside goes beyond the capacity of our body to receive its impact. Then, we cannot know what is happening outside. We cannot know that there is such a thing called heaven, for instance. We cannot see celestials with our eyes, because the celestial realm or the heaven that we have heard of is a condition of living, a set of circumstances whose frequency is far more intense than what our bodily conditions can bear or receive.
To give a gross example, your eardrum cannot receive broadcasting waves sent from broadcasting stations. If the BBC is transmitting something, your ear cannot hear it though these waves of the broadcasting station are impinging upon your eardrums, because there is no receptive capacity of the eardrums. They are very gross. We have a capacity to receive only certain types of influence. The influence should not be below our present condition, or above our condition. The body will not receive what is grosser than its own condition, nor subtler than its condition. And so, we are in a peculiar, temporary state of affairs where we are compelled to mistake a transient or fleeting set of circumstances for the entire reality.
That is why we are happy in this world – very, very foolishly indeed; and the student of yoga sees this with his piercing eye. Duhkham eva sarvam vivekinah (YS 2.15), says Patanjali. For a person of understanding, everything is sorrow in this world. There is no joy, because this joy is a phenomenon which is projected falsely by passing conditions, which should not be mistaken for everything and all things.
Why I mention all this is because we, as seekers of truth or students of yoga, should not take yoga as a diversion, a hobby, or a kind of play like tennis or football, for which we go in the evening when the day's work is over. We are not playing tennis or football here. This is, as I said, a life-and-death matter for those who can realise their condition, really. But we are often so pigheaded that we cannot realise our own condition. It is this thick-headedness that makes us appear very comfortable and happy in this world. But a subtle mind, like that of a student of yoga, will realise what is ahead, and it will be very cautious of even tomorrow.
When we take to the practice of yoga, we take to a very, very serious subject, which cannot be compared with anything else in this world. The seriousness of the issue should drive us into a very meticulous observation of the disciplines of yoga. As the Upanishad tells us, not all the treasures of this earth put together can be equal to this knowledge. We should not impart this knowledge to undeserving persons, and we should not sell it for even the treasures of the whole world. Such is the worth, value, importance and necessity of this knowledge.
Knowing this very well, it is to be considered by us as high time for taking to serious practice, which calls for attention wholeheartedly paid to this subject, for which, as we considered in the previous chapter, we have to find time to sit quietly for a while every day to deliberate upon the various factors that are necessary for the practice. The first thing is, therefore, to find time; and our greatest of diseases is that we cannot find time. We have no time for anything because we have been caught up in the movement of a hurricane or a whirlwind which we call life in this world. This hurricane is driving us in the direction it moves, and we seem to have no control over its movement. We cannot have even a say in this matter. But it is up to us to gain some confidence in ourselves, and exert our will in the proper direction to find time. If we want to find time, we can find time; but if we do not want to find time, we cannot find time. Where there is a will, there is a way.
The activities of our daily life should be so adjusted, proportioned and allotted in the requisite manner that we should not allow our mind to engage itself in questions, issues, or matters which are not really connected with this serious subject which we are considering, this question that we are trying to answer. It is necessary, therefore, to have a daily routine chalked out very carefully, each for oneself, right from the time we get up in the morning till the time we go to bed. What are our daily items of routine? Is there any item which is unnecessary and which we can forego? If it is totally unnecessary, it should be given up, and the time saved thus should be utilised for a better purpose concerned with this aim of ours. Time can be saved either by giving up unnecessary activity, or by quickening the process of even necessary activities. There are many things which are quite necessary, and we cannot give them up because they have to be done, for one reason or the other. But we can bestow so much concentration on these necessary items that we might be able to do them quickly, more quickly than we would do them by merely woolgathering – because time is short, and we do not know what will happen to us tomorrow.
"Grhita ivakeseshu mrtyuna dharmamacharet," says an old Sanskrit adage. We must practice the path of righteousness, pursue the aim of our life, with such ardour, anxiety, and intensity as would be necessitated at the time if death were to come and catch our throat. "Now I am here!" If death comes and tells us this, what will we think in our mind at that time? With what intensity will we think of God? And what would be the ardour with which we would cry for salvation?
In some of our scriptures, other humorous examples are given. Suppose our hair is caught by fire; we will run somewhere to dip it in the water, or do something. And with what force will we run – with what anxiety! We will not think anything else at that time – neither food, nor clothing, nor anything else: "Oh! My hair has caught fire!" Or, we are drowning in water and are gasping for a little breath. What will be our feeling at that time? Such, they say, is to be the ardour of aspiration, the intensity of our concentration, and the necessity we feel for the practice of yoga.
This is only an introduction for the simple thing that I wish to say – that is, we must find time to sit alone for at least a short time every day. 'Alone' means absolutely alone, with none around us, and nothing else to think in our mind – no engagements whatsoever, except the one thing that is before us.
This time that we choose may be either early in the morning, or late in the evening before we go to bed. In the middle of the day, we are busy; well, it is accepted. We have many things to do in this world, so we cannot sit for a long time in the middle of the day. We have to assume and accept that we are beginners. We are not advanced students, so we cannot be fulltime seekers in this intensified form. At least twice in a day we must be able to sit. The moment we get up from the bed, we should not run to the tea shop. That is not the thing that we have to think in our mind, at least for a few minutes – let it be even for fifteen minutes. Get up from the bed, and do not come out of the room at once. Let the first thought be the noblest of thoughts – the most sublime of ideas – the entertaining of which will be strong enough to give us enough energy to work throughout the day in a proper manner, without indulging in errors, or falsehood, or any kind of unwanted behaviour.
So should the day also end. Before going to bed, there should be at least a half-an-hour's gap allowed for us to concentrate and meditate on these essentials of life. They are the essentials; the other things are only preparatory for these essentials to manifest themselves and work themselves out in our life. And a day should come when we should be able to give more and more time for these essentials by cutting short unwanted work and non-essentials in our life so that, God willing, the time will come when we shall be wholly dedicated for a life of godliness.
This does not mean an abandonment of earthly values, as many people mistakenly imagine, but a transmutation, transformation and sublimation of all earthly values so that in our turning towards God, we have not isolated ourselves from the world or given up anything of the world, but only absorbed everything into ourselves and become a larger body, a bigger person, and a more significant individual now than what we were earlier.

A single Watt through a 10" speaker is all it takes to transport you back to the seventies.
As part of their 50th Anniversary celebration, Marshall announced the release of the JMP-1C 1x10" combo. A 1 Watt, all-tube combo amp that pays homage to the era of the 1970's Marshall tone and ascetics. One of two that are the second in a series of five Limited Edition pairings – each paying homage to one of the five decades that Marshall has been in business.
The Volume control sets the overall output volume of the amp, as well as its gain, for pleasing distortion as the tube stages within are gradually overdriven more and more. The Treble and Bass controls give you further tonal control so you can get the JMP sound that is perfect for you.
A taste of classic seventies Marshall tone can be yours, call or click to order.
Our product catalog varies by country due to manufacturer restrictions. If you change the Ship-To country, some or all of the items in your cart may not ship to the new destination.

UKCM Comment: This is a joint post by UKCMTeam members Chris and Sukie.
Logan Mize first came to our attention when he made an appearance on CW Networks hit TV show Hart Of Dixie (shown on Really in the UK on Sky 248/Freeview 17/Virgin 267) where he performed two tracks, The Good Life and High & Dry from his second album Nobody In Nashville. He recently made his UK debut when he opened up for LeAnn Rimes on her European tour earning much praise from the crowd for his acoustic numbers and energetic performances. Last year Mize also teamed up with recently announced C2C 2014 artist Dierks Bentley for a show down at the Hard Rock Live in Biloxi, MS during Bentley's Beers & Cold Cans Tour.
Mize's career has been going from strength to strength since signing a record deal with Big Yellow Dog Music back in 2009 and his second album Nobody In Nashville peaked at No. 49 on Billboard Country Albums and No. 15 on Billboard Heatseekers Albums. Mize's latest single Used Up was released last week on the 8 October.
A break up song, Used Up starts with a relatively simple almost acoustic opening which shows off Mize's voice brilliantly before the song builds up to a much hard-hitting beat, which continues throughout the rest of the track, as it hits the chorus,
Although the hero of the song accepts that the relationship is over as far as his lover is concerned, he still loves her, but rightly, can't help but feel that whilst he gave, she has now taken what she can from him and hence we have the aptly title of the song.
"Don't know where I'll be going just for the sake of knowing, but I gave you all my good stuff but now I'm used up, stumped out like your cigarette"
As a break-up song it straddles somewhere between the hard biting anger of Tyler Farr's recent No.1 hit Redneck Crazy and Casey James' Crying on a Suitcase.
For those who didn't get to hear Logan Mize live recently you really need to give Used Up a listen to see why he won so much deserved praise whilst supporting LeAnn Rimes on her recent UK tour from fans both old and young alike when he opened for her recently across the UK, and judging by those who eagerly bought his CDs during the intervals, gaining a whole new fan base here across the pond.
Let's hope he gets a chance to come back soon!
Rating: 8/10
Where to buy:
Used Up is available to purchase in the UK from iTunes
You can find out more about Logan Mize by following him on Twitter @LoganMize, Facebook, YouTube channel and visiting his website.

The rap-rooted act Die Antwoord never fail to continually impress with both their supercharged rap/techno music and accompanying other-worldly videos. Their latest single/video "Cookie Thumper," which was published to YouTube earlier today via noisey, is a production of pure brilliance by the trio comprised of Yo-Landi Vi$$er, Ninja, and DJ Hi-Tek. And I just love how this South African group can so effortlessly take all the various extremes of American hip-hop/rap - from nasty sexy to scary eerie - and somehow do a better job of serving it up it than their American pop/rap counterparts; and all the while rapping/singing in their own tongue with just some English words thrown in including some hip-hop references to Naughty By Nature and Ol' Dirty Bastard.
I love these guys, always have, and appreciate how they never attempt to sanitize or water down in any way their whole vibe for mainstream appeal. And this video and song just drive that point home for me. The song is a single from Die Antwoord forthcoming album Donker Mag (to be released by ZEF Recordz in February 2014) while the video, with cinematography by Alexis Zabe and Paul Gilpin with production by ZEF Filmz in association with VICE, is expertly directed by band member Ninja who picked up David Lynch's Eraserhead among his finds in the crates at Amoeba Hollywood - as seen Die Antwoord's entertaining What's In My Bag? below - filmed round same time (Oct 2010) they did an instore at Amoeba San Francisco - pictured left.
fight is over!
This Wednesday, February 22nd, Die Antwoord will be making a special appearance at Upper Playground's San Francisco gallery, FIFTY24SF at 4:00pm. The group will be presenting a special, one-night only installation to coincide with their Noise Pop show in support of their newest album, TEN$ION.
In addition to the installation, Die Antwoord will be presenting and releasing a special collector's vinyl sculpture of Evil Boy, made in collaboration with Good Smile Company. Select vinyl pieces will be hand-detailed on by Die Antwoord's Ninja.

Die Antwoord Play Damage Control in Advance of Potentially Controversial Content of New Single/Video "Fok Julle Naaiers"
In the above video uploaded yesterday, Die Antwoord member Ninja, in a display of advance PR damage control for the US market for their anticipated forthcoming new album TEN$ION, addresses the South African electro/rap group's use of certain language (namely member DJ Hi Tek's use of the word "faggot") used in their new album's lead single and video (see below) for the song "Fok Julle Naaiers."
The song, when roughly translated means "fuck all y'all," is from their soon to drop album TEN$ION, which will be released in 2012 on their own independent label, ZEF RECORDZ (formed after the group departed Interscope Records who, they complained, tried to interfere creatively with the group). As well as member Hi-Tek's repeated usage of the word "faggot" (he's gay), Ninja addresses the topic of white people using the word "nigga" in casual conversation. "The word faggot doesn't hold any power over him. Hi Tek says faggot all the time. He's taken that word and made it his bitch," says Ninja of the F word. Below is the brand new video for the forthcoming album track that brought about the discussion. Note: DJ Hi-Tek's verse is the final one in song.
"We know what we are doing in a sort of mystical way" - Ninja
Check out this exclusive interview with Die Antwoord -- Ninja and Yo-landi break down zef style, vocabulary, discuss the American reaction to their video "Evil Boy" ("We aren't anti gay, we're anti supid people."), plus there's clips of their Amoeba SF performance too! Ninja even compares zef to Lord of the Rings! This is a true education in zef!

The Martin County Commission plans to review plans for a U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility Feb. 12.
If recent history is any indicator of future action, the project likely will receive considerable scrutiny from the new commission. Commissioners have been dutifully reviewing several projects approved by the previous commission — and the Customs facility project almost certainly will receive comparable treatment.
This is welcome and necessary. A Customs facility at Witham Field must be self-supporting. County taxpayers shouldn't be asked to subsidize this venture. A previous commission approved the project with the expectation — and promise from airport officials — that fees collected from aviation and marine users clearing Customs would cover operating costs. This expectation is still valid.
That said, the Customs facility project, which has almost completed the design stage and is nearing the bid stage, remains a worthwhile undertaking.
Currently, flights originating in our region and returning to U.S. soil must first land at either Palm Beach or St. Lucie County international airports. International boaters must drive to Fort Pierce or Palm Beach to clear Customs within 24 hours of landfall.
A full-service Customs facility at Witham Field would be convenient and beneficial for Martin County boaters and air passengers.
The major sticking point when airport officials first proposed the project was whether the federal government would waive a rule prohibiting the county from charging marine users to clear Customs. This obstacle has been eliminated. Witham Field will be allowed to charge a fee for boaters and air travelers.
Airport Director George Stokus estimates the cost to build the facility at $800,000. The county has received a $400,000 grant from the Florida Department of Transportation to help fund the project. Stokus projects an operating expenditure in the first year of about $200,000 — to be paid from the Airport Enterprise Fund — to run the facility.
Aviation Strategies and Trade Solution, LLC, a consulting firm in Miami, prepared a report that examined the financial viability of the project. It concluded the Customs facility "would provide approximately $500,000 in revenue, with about 40 percent coming from aviation users and 60 percent from marine users."
Airport officials anticipate a "soft opening" of the facility in October or November.
A Customs facility at the airport — one of the first such facilities in Florida — has the potential to enhance the local economy.
"Reported benefits to Martin County (of a Customs facility) include an increase in tourism with an associated increase in jobs," the consultant's report states.
Unless something major and unforeseen arises Feb. 12 that invalidates the project, commissioners should stay the course with respect to the Customs facility at Witham Field.
