Ohai fareon! U habs bin warned! http://cheezburger.com/8410234368
By SovaPlum on Nov 18, 2014 at 11:06 PM
Ohai Wiggles! I'm sorry to hear you are not your usual warm and uplifting self. Have some of this *puts steaming bowl of mushroom soup on the computer desk* I swear you'll see the world in a whole new way. It's how I found my happy place! And if you don't like what you see, sit on this. *places long tack pointy side up next to soup bowl* It'll straighten you right up. ___ Did you cheer up some as The End grew nigh? I did. it was very exciting. I felt sure Missy would turn out to be Galafrian. Maybe Romana! The only Ginger Time Lordess ever! Of course in my heart-of-hearts I hoped it would be River Song. That Promised Land looked so like the Great Library's Dr Moon's work. I reckon we haven't seen the last of Missy yet, though. Nor Clara nor Danny Pink! Too many hints to the contrary. So until the Christmas Special, you can find me here *hangs up sign that reads "gone to watch Drs Mud Wrestling" gets into closet to Narnia.

I'm sorry to admit it but yes I'm still alive. Another useless year where I accomplish nothing. As you can see I'm no longer the non-sarcastic happy-go-lucky sob you know and love ;-) I've made mayanesk doomsday prediction, all the signs point to that Cheezburger will crumble to dust withing 5 years, so save what you can. TEH EDN IS NAER!
By SovaPlum on Nov 5, 2014 at 8:06 PM
P.S. Are you still alive?
By SovaPlum on Nov 5, 2014 at 8:06 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Somewhat belated Happy Birthday! Do you know what happens the day after your B.D? http://cheezburger.com/8367940864 If you're gonna eat that sammich, I'd recommend you slow deep fry it. By now it's old enough to walk unaided.

"That fat a-hole"? Wiggles, were you one of those childs that was bratty all year then indignant when you only got practical presents? You can't fool the Jolly One,wiggles. His surveillance system is the envy of the multivers. __ Speaking of the multivers. You were wise to pass on that devil cake. I'm quite sure it had "a little something" that would have seen you singing and dancing to the moaning emo crowd at Twilight! The Musical. As it was, at the last minuet you body double cast off his disguise and WOWED the crowd. Now he has clingy, obsessive fans from all over the Universes slavishly obeying his every command. ___ As for the devil you know. I looked him up in the Illustrated Demondium. Any devil of inventiveness that is also associated with licentiousness and orgies is an o.k. demon by me. I've sent him my profile and am looking forward to his suggestions of easier ways I can get my jollies. Thanks for the tip!
By fareon on Jul 10, 2014 at 3:23 AM
That fat a-hole has never given me anything but socks... so yes I would say he can't handle his job. "His" sleigh is even an Belphegor inspiration, you see Belpegors inspire sloth by the way of scientific progress. Everytime someone says "Eureka" a Belphegor get his pitchfork. If it wasn't for hellish intervention santa would completely regress into the fat wife beating drunk he really is, but he's useful to us. Sorry, I don't eat Beelzebubs cooking since the angel pubic hair incident of 1372 :) I actually don't speak Finnish that well, but I think it is some sort of saying, what it's trying to say I have no idea :)
By SovaPlum on Jun 21, 2014 at 7:47 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Wuts dis? You think Santa can't handle his job? Don't you know that Santa's sleigh can travel through Time And Relative Dimensions in Space? What are you? Ignorant or something? ___ Beelzelbub sends you a little thank you gift. *puts slice of devil cake on a plate, adds a dollop of whipped cream, puts in your fridge* Enjoy! He baked it himself and added some paparika to the chocolate icing for some South American zing. Being kebabed is one of his favourite job perks! She has been trying out songs from TTM in the damned and rating them by the volume of their tormented moans. btw What does a Belphegor do? Is it something to do with call centers? ___ On other matters. Is this, infact a Finnish saying? And if so, what does it say? http://cheezburger.com/8128715776
By fareon on Jun 9, 2014 at 2:09 AM
You're not naive enough to believe there is only one Devil? It's like with Santa it's impossible for one fat guy to be everywhere, so we loaned him a few little Satans to pick up the slack, out sourcing is big bossiness you know, and just the right amount of evil =) As for your blasphemy you said it yourself GOOD blasphemy, we can't have that sort of thing ruining our bad reputation. This devil you know is already slow roasting over an infernal flame, Beelzebub loves that sort of thing. But I'm glad you sold him out to me I should be getting a promotion for this, maybe I'll finally get the position of chief Belphegor...
By SovaPlum on Jun 2, 2014 at 1:15 AM
=0.0= Well luk! A Buk Klub Kard! Wow! They'll let anyone in :)
By SovaPlum on Jun 2, 2014 at 1:11 AM
Ohai Wiggles! Oh I see. A Full Rreplacement double! Well at least the singing will be bett. . um I mean, not so ba. . . um ah professional! Yeah, that's it. Professional. As for your being "the devil". Well the Devil I know LOVES a good blasphemy! In fact He has pre-booked the V.I.P box for the entire season already. I've been given permission to charge Him whatever I like! So unless you want to get demoted from a devil to an imp, you might want to rethink that Full Replacement policy. Actually, is an imp a lesser being than a devil? Perhaps you might get worse. You might be forced to work as a *gasp* cold caller! How's your Hindi accent?
By fareon on May 28, 2014 at 1:26 AM
No, no, no, I'm disappointed you should have figured it out by now. I'm the devil, who else would voluntarily have anything to do with Mel Gibson. Now if you excuse me Mel is late for his plastic surgery appointment, one way or another he will take my place in the blasphemy you're creating :)
By SovaPlum on May 27, 2014 at 1:49 AM
Ohai Wiggles! Wait! I'm confused. Are you saying the Mouse is the Devil? The Second Coming? Some sort of All-Purpose Generic Deity? Or just that your butt double is insane? Which would explain why he would take a job as a butt-double. After all, there's desperate and then there's desperate. Either way you might want to take care when glittering up his saggy derriere. Mel has had his rump attended to by the best arse lickers in the Known Universe. I'm speaking of Hollywood producers of course. Back in his hey day, Our Lord of the Drunken Anti Semitic Rant was the most lickable property in Tinsel Town. So you will be Judged by He who has Knowenth them all! Considering that you will be singing and dancing with the other glitter-vampi I don't see how you can avoid watching Twighlight: The Musical! But I'll pay good money to see you try! *marks date on Important Events calendar*
By fareon on May 17, 2014 at 12:41 PM
Well, lets just say we have kind of a deal with the devil thing going. You don't think that the first Mad Max movie would have made it off the ground without it? And he extended his contract for that Passion nonsense... I know it doesn't seem reasonable but then sanity is his strongest character trait. But he does make an excellent butt double :P If you want I'll glitter him up and let you borrow him for your musical. On one condition, that I never ever have to watch it =)
By SovaPlum on May 10, 2014 at 11:32 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Oh I THOUGHT I recognized those buttocks! How do you afford Our boy Mel? I know he's not P.C. right now buthe's still too famous to be cheap. btw There are no puppets in Twilight! The Musical. You're thinking of Thunderbirds Over Broadway! Have you met your new boss Director yet? http://cheezburger.com/8182124288 I'm sure if you cry and llok scared it will be great for my ratings. *hint, hint*
By fareon on May 6, 2014 at 12:11 AM
Ah yes, about that surveilance fed. I extended Mel Gibson contract as my butt double to play me and do the Carlton dance from time to time, I don't want the watchers getting bored :P I'm not left or right, I'm backstage pulling the puppets strings :D
By SovaPlum on Apr 29, 2014 at 3:52 PM
Ohai Wiggles. Yes! I love watchin your "When Nobody Is Watching" dance. So inhibited, so ridged! It's a very popular segment on my reality clip show. So while you're up on that desk. . . But don't worry. If the director of Twilight: The Musical can't get a satisfactory performance out of you using his phazer set to tazer, you can just be Fith Corpse from the Right. Or are you more Left? Left of right? Right of center? There are lots of possibilities. It's a huge cast. All the Slippery Hand dojo have signed up and those fan dancing Indians are in too! Here's a selection of flavoured glitter gels for you to choose from. And the first production poster! http://cheezburger.com/8167160832
By fareon on Apr 24, 2014 at 4:02 AM
That's the most evil thing I've ever heard of... I know I've said it before but I never really meant it *stands up on desk* Oh Captain my Captain... Also I've had all my dance related immunization shots :P Which means I only dance when nobody is watching =)
By SovaPlum on Apr 19, 2014 at 5:54 PM
Welcome to the cast of TWILIGHT: THE MUSICAL! mwahahahahaha!!
By fareon on Apr 18, 2014 at 4:00 AM
Space navigation isn't so hard, up, down, right, left and turn it all around... that's what it's all about... Sorry don't know why I said that. No! Have you infected me with the dancethon virus? It was in the gel wasn't it? Am I going to become a musical lover now?
By SovaPlum on Apr 12, 2014 at 10:11 PM
oooh! I see you've scored a FP. I don't recognize that one. Someone been raiding you archive? Have a Victory Choccie! *upends a small dark chocolate mouskateer hat, filles with vanilla custard, seals with a layer of white chocolate, places on transporter, presses Make It So*
By SovaPlum on Apr 12, 2014 at 10:02 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Spacelexia? Don't you know no human can handle space navigation unaided? Really. It's clearly high time you attended the Crew Orientation Danceathon. Were you trying to fly my vessel MANUALLY?!?!? Careful how you answer, Minion! When it comes to administering non-pleasure inducing punishments, Itchee Slap Slap San has NOTHING on Fluffybum! ___Vanilla gel? Eww. Well to each their own. *spikes glittergel with vanilla essense, launches from potato gun* I presume you realize this will only make you more attractive to the Twihards?
By fareon on Apr 8, 2014 at 5:59 AM
What disability? Spacelexia! I just told you, and it's not like I just made it up to score some free sympathy. That's pretty cold of you being suspicious like that after everything I've done for you Captain... Is the bodygel non-poisonous vanilla flavoured fun gel? Because if not I'm not interested... *looks around for witnesses*... fine give me the gel, I'm going to Disney world to harrass som princesses, Mickey will be soooo mad :P
By SovaPlum on Apr 2, 2014 at 12:00 AM
Ohai Wiggles! What disability? Surely you've worked out by now that my crew aren't chosen for technical skills? If you can't navigate then I'll just put the auto-pilot on *swaps whoopee cushion for sleeping kitten*. So cheer up! Or are you one of these determinedly gloomy types? Either way, I now understand your interest in glittery body gel. Here, I got this from Sick Bay for you *lobs rubber jar of glitter gel at you* Say hi! to my fellow Twihards for me!
By fareon on Mar 29, 2014 at 12:06 AM
Someone has to fight the power of the evil cheezlords and their mouskateer cohorts :P So I suffer from spacelexia and I failed the remedial interdimensional universe positioning course, big deal... I'm not ashamed... *Sob* but you didn't have to bring up my disability like that infront of everyone... I'm going to my sad place now *Shuffles of to the universe of twilight fans"
By SovaPlum on Mar 24, 2014 at 9:30 PM
Ohai Wiggles ! Have you been taking potshots at Mouskateers again? For the last couple of weeks I've been redirected away from your DB! I finally complained to the Cheezelord/etts. They'll do anything to shut me up and, look, you're all fixed! ___Anyway. I don't know how you managed to miss the Marshmallow Universe. It's probably the most visited 'vers in the whole multivers! Here *places whoopee cushion filled with marshmallow on Captains chair* I've turned the Universal Marshmallow Locator on. Try again while I spend quality time in my latest Happy Place *transports up to Vorlon Planet Destroyer, Fluffybum, jumpgates over to solar system with Deathstar obstacle course, lines up to race against Captian Kirk 2.0*
By fareon on Mar 12, 2014 at 3:51 AM
If there is one thing I absolutely must it's twiddle with my equipment *nudge, nudge, wink, wink* :P I completely missed the marshmellow universe and now I'm lost, where is the MPS(Multiverse Positioning System) on this cosmos?
By SovaPlum on Mar 3, 2014 at 8:36 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Where's my marshmellows? I'll have it with coconut and chocolate sprinkles. Pronto, my Most Minor Minion!
By SovaPlum on Feb 13, 2014 at 2:47 PM
Ohai Wiggles! Well if you must twiddle with your equipment of course you're gonna miss out on what others are doing. So quite whingeing and pay attention to your piloting. Make sure you hit the strawberry flavoured marshmallow sector. Failure to provide your Beloved Leader with the tastiest of treats may result in execution. OR WORSE mwahahahaha!!!!!
By fareon on Feb 7, 2014 at 11:24 PM
Mnnn, the virtual outside... feel that fresh air =) I don't think insults is one of the doctors strengths, even if it probably could be. No, what I meant is I'll ask him why I want to be insulted, maybe he can "heal" me :P There was nothing in the briefing about interpretive dance reports, and the screen in my room I rewired to HBO in the first 5 minutes :) Anyway isn't interpretive dance an inefficient way of running a universe? I propose a committee and many long and pointless meetings to decide what would be more efficient and then do something else completely because it costs too much, that's the model on which good business is built :D BTW, I took the liberty of also rewiring your chair to grant me access, I'm now moving the universe fullspeed tohrough the multiverse and I'm going to crash in into the marshmallow universe, don't worry it should be a fluffy crash :)

OutaFocus added a post in a topic "Half a Hemi" Cuda build using a 3d printer - Adventure Begins 8-27I looked at the M3D site and could find little technical information. I like the looks of the head & valve cover, but how much finish work after printing did it take to get to the point you showed? Is the printed surface smooth?
OutaFocus added a post in a topic New decal and resin body
The hood has the cowl in place as was common for P/S cars of the era, so no, it isn't stock.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic WHICH One to build w/ 1972 CHALLENGER Funny carSince the original issue of that kit was of the Gene Snow car, it's only natural that the chassis is more correct for that version than the others. For the sake of accuracy, I would build the Snow car.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Moebius `65 Plymouth SatelliteNitpick all you want, but compared to the stuff coming out of Revell these days, this kit and company are a breath of fresh air. Well done!
Now....where's that A990?
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Best Cragar SS wheels?As stated earlier, the best Cragar SS wheels come from Johan. I especially like the wheels in the original issue AMX S/S car. The detail in the center caps is unbelievable and the overall shape is spot on. In the AMX they have both shallow and deep offsets, perfect for 70's SS and PS cars.
Johan is often overlooked for quality well detailed parts because the kits were issued over and over and the molds were in bad shape, but for their day and even into current times, the detail and shapes were great.
Consider that in the 60's they were producing kits with combustion chamber detail in their Hemi heads, Cylinder detail in their Oldsmobile blocks, etc.
For 60's and 70's SS and PS builders they produced the best wheels including fantastic Keystone Kustomag Klassics in the Sox & Martin 71 Cuda, Great Fenton slots, and even superb Motorwheel Spyders in the Eddie Shartman Maverick.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Moebius `65 Plymouth SatelliteFirst year for the Street Hemi in production was 1966.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell 67 CamaroFor T/A racing in 67 and 68, the Penske cars ran American Racing 5 spokes, so one of the Revell C3 Corvette race cars would be a good kit for those. In 67 they ran a flat (not the SS) hood with a NASCAR-like cowl induction air cleaner ducted into the cowl panel. They also ran yellow stripes.
So we need a base car flat hood, AR 5 spokes, Stripe decals, etc to make an accurate 67 Penske car.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic NEW resin Demon pro stockStraight Repop, Still no corrected front wheelwells.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic MPC 1/20th 1970 AMC AMXDidn't the original issue of that kit include the optional parts and decals to do the Craig Breedlove Speed Record car? If so, I hope Round2 includes those parts too. What a surprising and interesting release!
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell Sox & Martin Pro Stock CudaHere is a scan of a magazine article on the 70 Cuda. It shows the original Six Pack scoop, but also an IR manifold with 4500's:
I also ran across this picture of a 71 Cuda in what looks like 70 trim. It might be the converted 70 Cuda:
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell Sox & Martin Pro Stock CudaJudging by the picture above, it looks like the original six pack scoop was cut open. So it was probably a modification done later in the season. I lived in SE Pa as a kid and made many trips to Englishtown. I saw the 70 run, and I do remember the crossram, but I also realize they were race cars and they changed throughout the season. I can admit when I'm wrong, it looks like it did run during the 70 season in the configuration shown on the box art.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell Sox & Martin Pro Stock Cuda
Oh yes, it's still very nice to have and I will buy several. I did not mean to put the kit down, hell, I haven't even seen one in the flesh yet. I was only commenting on what a saw of the box art and read. It's nice to have a kit of the subject at all.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell Sox & Martin Pro Stock Cuda71 Barracudas (not Cudas) didn't have gills either, so the fenders would have been correct for a 71 also. It is possible that one of the 70's may have been converted though. Remember that S&M shop was basically a factory. You could actually order a P/S car out of the catalog, so building a new car or cars each year would have been a breeze. S&M supplied cars to Ronnie Lyles, Reid Whisnant (sp?), etc.
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Revell Sox & Martin Pro Stock CudaUnderstand that I haven't actually seen the kit, just box art. I'm also basing my comments on what I read in this thread. There were actually two 70 P/S S&M Cuda's (as well as Dusters) One Cuda had chrome bumpers and the other had an Endura front bumper. I have a picture around here with S&M posing in front of two transporters loaded with both Cuda's and Dusters. I also have an S&M catalog which shows a background picture of a Body-in White 70 Cuda next to a brand new Hemi Cuda street car. They stated that it was easier to start with a stripped shell and transfer all of the required stock components to the shell than to strip a street car to build the race car. This is very common practice today, but fairly uncommon then, especially on what was primarily an SS car built for heads up competition.
No onto the kit based on what I know of it. The real cars (at least in legal NHRA P/S trim) used cross ram manifolds in 70. I read in the first post in this thread that the kit had a tunnel ram. Is that true? S&M may have used a TR later in the year or for match racing, but all of my references show a cross ram in 70. Second, the box art shows a hood scoop with an open front. The 70 car in all of my pics shows a standard Six Pack scoop. FYI the fiberglass parts for the S&M cars came from A&A Fiberglass here in Atlanta. I can confirm that the hoods that came from A&A had standard Six Pack scoops. again, for match racing anything goes, so the pictured scoop may have been used.
If the above inaccuracies are true, then the aftermarket needs to come to our aid with a correct intake and hood at least.
EDIT- I just Googled the Cuda and I see pictures of the car restored and it indeed looks like it had a TR and opeen front scoop. Revell must have looked at the restored car and included parts that weren't on the car in it's most raced configuration .
OutaFocus added a post in a topic Pinto Pro StockYes, we did. We displayed the kit at the NNL along with a few other parts.

We went for a few days of rest and relaxation and were extremely satisfied with everything. We stayed in the Island Room. We loved it from the coconut tree to the humongous bed.
In other inns we have stayed at, the fridge was never filled so that was a nice surprise to find. As well as the plate of chocolate covered strawberries and desserts. Everything in the room was immaculate and so clean. The robes in the bathroom room were comfy as could be after coming out of the shower. The shower had the perfect pressure. The jacuzzi totally relaxed me and relieved sore muscles. They thought of everything from a tv with tons of channels, a table and chairs to eat meals that were left. We would go to breakfast, come back and the room was clean and fridge was full. They filled up a basket with coffee and cookies.
The Tea Room had yummy food such as quiche and sandwiches, which were always served with melon and red grapes. We had breakfast in the sun room one morning and the view was beautiful. The staff was extremely attentive. Rebecca would stay and chat with me. She is so sweet and made the trip even more enjoyable. Allison was sweet and would make me my bubble teas. I had never had a bubble tea before and would go back just for that.
Larry the owner loved to chat from suggesting places to visit to suggesting places to dine. Both of which we were quite impressed with. They provided books, one of which was so wonderful, I have ordered it for my own reading at home.
It is very private and totally silent when you are in your room. I slept better than ever, feeling totally rested when I left. The gift shop had so many beautiful things. They ranged from jewelry to teas to even olive oils. I wish I could have stayed longer. I highly recommend Two Hearts Inn.

What an amazing place! You nailed it down to every little detail! Our island suite was fantastic! We were celebrating our 10th anniversary and couldn't get back to Hawaii where we were married due to some work obligations and my husband found Two Hearts Inn at the last minute and was able to book us this amazing suite! From the Palm tree pole to the cozy room and waterfall feature, everything was perfect! Breakfast was amazing and the innkeeper was very personable! We will absolutely be back for another trip! Thank you for this amazing place and I am so glad we gave it a try! It was paradise!

We were given a night's stay here as a gift, and what an incredible gift it was! We couldn't believe how we felt we actually escaped from Edmond and life in general for a night in this cozy inn! We stayed on a Thursday and the picnic dinner and breakfast the next morning were fantastic. We felt spoiled and so blessed. Larry was so helpful and kind to us. We highly recommend Two Hearts!

My husband and I booked this for our anniversary. I was very pleased with the Tuscany Room. It was very spacious and luxurious. The bed was so comfy and soft! We loved having the frig stocked. Beautiful place and had a nice deck with outside chairs and table to relax at sunset. The breakfast was delivered on time and was a variety of delicious choices. Everyone was very pleasant to deal with and Larry, the owner, made sure we had everything we needed. We appreciated his great hospitality. We will be telling our friends and family about this place and we will also be back. Thanks for a great experience!

My husband and I spent the first two nights after our wedding in Suite Venetian. The room was beautiful and the service and food was great. We will definitely be returning!

We planned to stay for a nice evening. Had reservations in the "Hideaway" room. Our experience was underwhelming at best.
1. The room had been smoked in. This is supposedly a tobacco-free property. You could tell it had been attempted to clean, but the stale smoke smell remained. Additionally, another couple staying at the property were smoking nearby and the smell was evident. Yes, they were outside, but we had to walk past it and it was close to our room as well.
2. The room did not have a DVD player, as other do/did the last time we were there. I had a favorite movie picked out, but no joy.
3. We had were doing the "Berries and Bubbles" Gack! The berries were good, but the sparkling was Tott's. We didn't even open it. I was not expecting Moet, or Clquot, but they could at least have had something made in the traditional method vice the mass produced "Charmat" . There are plenty of decent sparklers for around $15.
4. We used the firepit for a small romantic fire, but apparently this is not appreciated, and the owner had the temerity to call and complain. He could at least have had the decency to walk out and ask. Had it not been us out there and he called me, I would have been livid. There was nothing posted about don't use it. There were even park benches surrounding it to sit and watch the small fire, so why would it even be there if not to use?
We were so disappointed and the whole thing upset my better 1/2 so much we left for the evening and went home, (40 miles away). This was our second time there, but there will not be a third.

We loved our 2 night stay in the Tuscany Suite. It was beautiful. Loved the stocked fridge and snacks. Food was AMAZING. The picnic lunch AMAZING, and lunch in the tea was also AMAZING. Quiet and peaceful. The only thing that would have made the whole experience the best is that we rented DVD and there was no player. Also a small blanket to use on the love seat (to make special cuddle time)! Other than that we had an awesome time. Thanks Larry (and our sweet breakfast delivery young man)! Get that DVD player and we will be back.

We spent the night here (in Suite Hearts) for our 2nd anniversary. We needed somewhere special to go that wasn't too far away. The room was luxurious and the breakfast was fantastic! We didn't want to leave. It is pricey, but we will definitely keep it in mind.

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
26 May 2011 18:55 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, United States, Yemen
Tribal fighters ranged against Yemen's president Ali Abdullah Saleh have fought pitched street battles in Sanaa, the capital, killing more than 40 and raising the spectre of a civil war.
On Thursday, residents were fleeing Sanaa by the hundreds, hurriedly fastening possessions to the roofs of cars, hoping to escape the violence that has killed more than 70 people since Monday, Reuters news agency reported.
"We call on President Saleh to stop the fighting and answer the demand of the Yemeni people for an immediate and urgent abdication of power"
Yemeni opposition coalition
Fighters in civilian clothes roamed some districts and machine gun fire rang out sporadically.
Explosions could be heard in the capital near the protest site where thousands of people demanding Saleh's exit from power are still camped.
There were long queues at bakeries, banks and petrol stations, as residents tried to stock up on cash and food before fleeing to safer areas in the impoverished state.
"I'm going to Hudaida, I can't stay anymore after what happened last night. That was crazy. We are civilians and want to live in peace," Hani Zobeidi, a civil servant, said.
The fighting, pitting Saleh's security forces against members of the country's most powerful Hashid tribe, led by Sheikh Sadiq al-Ahmar, was the bloodiest Yemen has seen since protests began in January.
Arrest order
The Yemeni president ordered the arrest of Sheikh Sadiq following the deadly clashes.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Yemen's defence ministry said Saleh had ordered that al-Ahmar and nine brothers be brought to justice for "armed rebellion".
Dozens of people were killed in overnight gun battles in Sanaa, while the defence ministry said at least 28 people were killed in an explosion at an arms storage area.
A government official said that the headquarters of an opposition television station had been "destroyed", without giving details.
Sheikh Sadiq is the leader of the Hashid tribe, which includes Saleh's tribe, and has been a vocal opponent of the president, joining protesters in calling for him to leave power.
The Hashid tribe is one of two main tribal groupings in Yemen. Alongside the Baqil, it has played a leading role in politics for centuries.
According to leaked US cables, Sheikh Sadiq, and his brother Amid, have long wanted to replace Saleh.
And in March, another member of the clan - Yemen army general - Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar, also threw his weight behind the protesters.
G8 for Saleh's departure
Meanwhile, leaders of the Group of Eight (G8) powers attending a summit in France have called on Saleh to quit.
"We deplore the fighting that occurred overnight which was a direct result of the current political impasse, for which President Saleh has direct responsibility due to his refusal to sign the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) transition agreement," a French foreign ministry spokesman said.
The US, which has long considered Saleh as an ally in its fight against al-Qaeda in the region, called on the embattled Yemeni leader to quit.
Hillary Clinton, the secretary of state, said in Paris: "We continue to support the departure of President Saleh who has consistently agreed that he would be stepping down from power and then consistently reneged on those agreements."
The US has ordered all non-essential diplomats and embassy family members to leave the country.
Britain has also withdrawn diplomatic staff because of the deteriorating security situation in the country.
William Hague, the foreign secretary, said he was "appalled by the reports of yet more deaths in Sanaa'' and urged Saleh to step down.
Catherine Ashton, the EU foreign policy chief, urged all sides in Yemen to cease violence as she renewed a call for Saleh to transfer power.
"I deplore the loss of so many lives and injuries. I strongly call on all sides to exercise restraint and refrain from further violence," she said.
UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon's spokesman, Martin Nesirky, said Ban was deeply troubled by the clashes in Sanaa and called for further peace efforts and an immediate end to the fighting.
No takers for GCC deal
The most recent bout of fighting erupted a day after Saleh pulled out for the third time from a deal mediated by Gulf Arab neighbours for him to quit and make way for a unity government.
Pressure has been mounting since February, when protesters inspired by democratic revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt began camping in squares and marching in their hundreds of thousands to call for Saleh to go.
His attempts to stop the protests by force have so far claimed the lives of more than 200 people.
The coalition of opposition parties that has sided with protesters and was due to sign the deal brokered by GCC held an emergency meeting on Thursday over what it called Saleh's "insistence on dragging Yemen towards civil war".
"We call on President Saleh to stop the fighting and answer the demand of the Yemeni people for an immediate and urgent abdication of power," the coalition said in a statement.
Saleh had said on Wednesday he would make no more concessions to those seeking his departure.

Hi there,
I'm seeking your advice for a wheelset for a Reign X. The style of riding would be rocky trails at the smoothest to heavy freeride with jumps and drops.
The parts that i have i mind are DT Swiss 440 hubs, Mavic EX729 rims and DT Swiss spokes. Not sure how much the total weight would be but i would be happier if the wheels withstand abuse at the expense of weight. Tires would be 2.5 fronts & 2.3 rears.
Appreciate your advice.

So what's the only negative about winning a title? It puts the ticket department about a month behind; a small sacrifice, for sure.
So, in the case of the Phillies, season ticketholders are only this week beginning to see what it will cost to view the world champions next year. Prices are going up for those who purchase the variety of season-ticket packages or buy seats for individual games. Those hikes range from $2 to $6 a seat, but not across the board.
"Some of the areas we haven't raised since we moved into Citizens Bank Park," John Weber, vice president for sales and ticket operations, said yesterday. "Our terrace deck went up from $20 to $22 for a season price, and it was $20 when we moved in in 2004. That [field level] area that was $40 when we opened . . . went to $44 in 2007, and we raised it to $50 [for next year]. And some other areas went up as well.
"Each year you kind of look at it. You have an area where you may or may not have done the year before, and pick and choose and go from there."

Editor Robert Parry: I want to thank the readers who contributed to our fall fund drive. I realize that election season is a time when many people are asking for your support. So I especially appreciate the effort. But we did end about $4,500 short of our $25,000 goal.

A new technological advancement may pave the way in the fight to eradicate malaria.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - A new method of genetically modifying mosquitoes is potentially offering a new path towards fighting the deadly disease, which affects 219 million people and kills between 660,000 and 1.2 million people, most of whom are children in Africa.
A single donation can help a child who suffers from this terrible disease.
This breakthrough comes from researchers from the Imperial College London who have tested a method that distorts the sex ratio of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes-the main transmitters of the malaria parasite-so that the female mosquitoes who bite and pass the disease to humans can no longer be produced.
The study, published in the journal Nature Communications, reported that the team created a fully fertile mosquito strain that produced 95% male offspring in laboratory tests.
Andrea Crisanti, who lead the research at Imperial's department of life sciences, was pleased with the results. "For the very first time, we have been able to inhibit the production of female offspring in the laboratory and this provides a new means to eliminate the disease."
Nikolai Windbichler, who co-led the work, said that most promising part of the study is the fact that the results are self-sustaining.
"Once modified mosquitoes are introduced, males will start to produce mainly sons, and their sons will do the same, so essentially the mosquitoes carry out the work for us," he said.
Over the six years of experimenters, scientists inserted a DNA cutting enzyme called I-Ppol into Anophles gambia mosquitoes. I-Ppol works by cutting the DNA of the female-producing X chromosome during production of sperm, so there is almost no functioning sperm to carry it. The result is that the offspring of these modified mosquitoes are nearly all male.
These experiments involved introducing the genetically modified mosquitoes into five caged, wild-type mosquito populations. Four of the five populations had their entire population eliminated in six generation due to the lack of females.
Some experts not directly involved in these experiments were impressed with the results, and enthusiastic about its potential.
"This is super cool work," said Michael Bonsall, a reader in zoology at Britain's University of Oxford. "Reducing mating potential of mosquitoes by modifying sperm is a population suppression technology. It will be very exciting to see how this. is now taken forward."
It is truly a great day when such a dreadful disease as Malaria may be eradicated. However, there are still millions affected by this disease. Just one donation can give medicine to a child suffering from this terrible illness.

(sâft fMn) (n.) Also spelled as softphone, an application that enables a desktop, laptop or workstation computer to function as a telephone via Voice over IP technology that uses the cables of a computer network as the medium for transmitting telephone service. Equipped with a headset or a hand-held device, and using the numbers on the keyboard to dial, the computer with soft phone software can perform the full range of telephone features available through traditional systems, such as teleconferencing and call forwarding. Soft phones typically make use of the computer's sound card for audio input and output.
Soft phones are typical call centers and other businesses that rely heavily on a combination of computers and telephones.

Because the Thunder will receive the pick this year, it presents the team an opportunity to add to an elite core that includes Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and Serge Ibaka. More than that, the Thunder is now in position to bring in another young player to join promising prospects Reggie Jackson, Lamb and Perry Jones.
Lamb was selected with the 12th overall pick last year. Other recent selections at No. 12 include Alec Burks, former Putnam City High Xavier Henry, Gerald Henderson, Jason Thompson and Thaddeus Young.
ESPN.com's mock draft projects the Thunder to use the 12th pick on Steven Adams, a 7-foot center out of Pittsburgh. Other options could include Indiana center Cody Zeller, UCLA swingman Shabazz Muhammad and Duke power forward Mason Plumlee.
Whichever direction the Thunder decides to go, the team is guaranteed to add cheap labor that will walk into a pressure-free situation where he can develop into a contributor. The 12th overall pick earns roughly $2 million, which is a relatively inexpensive amount for a team that must pay top dollar for Durant and Westbrook.

The UN secretary general has told Kosovo leaders to preserve the country's stability and solve all problems through dialogue.
At a meeting held in New York, Ban Ki-moon has told Kosovo's President Atifete Jahjaga and Prime Minister Hashim Thaci that the European Union's role in the Balkans region is essential, and its guidance should be followed.
"It is important for Kosovo to maintain stability... all issues should be solved by peaceful means. The entire region should look ahead to Euro-Atlantic integrations," Ki-moon is quoted as saying in the press release issued after the meeting by the Kosovo side.
Kosovo declared independence from Serbia on February 17, 2008. Since then 89 states, including 22 EU member states and the US, have recognized it.
Serbia and Kosovo started EU-mediated talks in Brussels in March 2011, three years after Kosovo declared independence, which Serbia refuses to recognise.
President Atifete Jahjaga accused Serbia of jeopardizing Kosovo's security and territorial integrity by continuing to finance illegal Serb structures in the northern part of Kosovo.
She said that such security structures keep frightening the ordinary Kosovo Serbs, with whom the Albanian-led government in Pristina wants to have a dialogue.
"We are determined to continue the dialogue with the Serb citizens in this part of the country to find ways to include them in the institutional life," she is quoted saying in the press release.
Northern Kosovo, which borders with Serbia and is ethnically predominantly Serbian, does not recognise Kosovo's independence or the government in Pristina.
Serbia's Prime Minister Ivica Dacic said on Saturday that he thinks that the partition is the only real possible solution for solving Kosovo's status issue.
But Kosovo leaders rejected such idea a long time ago, saying that the change of borders in the Balkans is a dangerous game.
Serbia's President Tomislav Nikolic will also have a meeting on Monday with UN's chief Ban Ki-moon, and the Kosovo talks issue is part of the agenda.
The opposition's latest move to block the work of parliament could foment dangerous tensions in the unstable country, experts fear.
Protesting opposition MPs blocked the work of the parliament on Thursday, demanding that Prime Minister Isa Mustafa withdraws Kosovo's signature from the agreement with Serbia.
Serbia has protested to the United Nations over Kosovo's presence at a conference on terrorism in New York.
Pristina's education ministry said that no Serbian textbooks could be distributed in Kosovo, accusing Belgrade of breaching an agreement to exchange books for use in each other's minority ethnic communities' schools.
Kosovo opposition parties say tens of thousands of people have signed their petition against the agreements reached with Serbia in Brussels - and the deal with Montenegro on the border.
Kosovo Serb party leader Oliver Ivanovic, who is on trial for war crimes, appealed for support from all Serbs as he was released into house arrest after 20 months in custody.
Pristina and Belgrade are set for another diplomatic battle over Kosovo's bid to join United Nations cultural body UNESCO which could further damage relations between Serbia and its former province.
Convicted criminals from Kosovo and Serbia only have to cross each other's borders in order to escape serving jail sentences for the crimes that they committed.
After UNESCO decided to look at Kosovo's membership application - a move that infuriated Serbian officials - experts said that obstacles remain on Pristina's path to joining the UN's cultural body.
While most Kosovo Serbs show skeptical optimism on governance deal, many Kosovo Albanians fear they have signed away some of their country's sovereignty.
Brussels agreement has left Serbs in north Kosovo uncertain about what the future holds - and whether they should remain at all.

Anti-choice billboarders never discuss why abortions are needed; the lack of access to quality health care, sex ed and contraception; or even the jobs needed to help young women care for the families they already have.
Fighting back is a good first step in the war against street harassment, but the abuse and crime will continue as long as our culture promotes sexist beliefs that women lack intelligence and autonomy.
Sexism was a successful strategy in this election – for male Democrats and Republicans. The only group for which it didn't work so well was women.
A new campaign focuses on the intentional and unintentional sexism rampant in reporting on and treatment of female candidates, even by those in their own party.
In Mad Men, the tough women are branded sexless wet blankets, while those who use their wiles and sexuality to advance themselves can have those qualities turned against them. Meanwhile, a sense of sisterhood is hard to find.
CNN and Good Morning America run two sensationist and largely unfounded stories about "bad girls" and then ask whether "women should be worried?" You know…I am. About the media.
"Greenberg," Noah Baumbach's latest film starring Ben Stiller, isn't just another movie about a man-child character having a mid-life crisis. Instead it deals unapologetically with real issues, like unwanted pregnancy and abortion.
From soft-core pornography to unwanted groping, it's not easy for women at technology conferences. Reported incidents are becoming fewer, but blatant sexism remains.

Grizzly Bear's Ed Droste on Symphonies, Festivals, and Going Top Ten
"This goes to show that leaks don't necessarily hurt, so we should all just chill out."
By Tom Breihan on July 2, 2009 at 6:10 p.m. EDT
Veckatimest, Grizzly Bear's most recent piece of studiously engineered, heartbreakingly pretty chamber pop, has earned itself a 9.0, a Best New Music, and a debut on the top 10 of Billboard's Top 200 album chart. Grizzly Bear can now spend the entire rest of the year taking victory laps. But they won't.
This summer, the Brooklyn band will smash the global festival circuit, including a set at the Pitchfork Music Festival on July 19. And on October 31, they'll play a special show at the London Barbican with the London Symphony Orchestra backing them up.
We called up frontman Ed Droste for his thoughts on symphonies, festivals, and crashing the charts.
Ed Droste: Yeah, I'm so excited about it! It's kind of crazy. I can't even believe it.
Pitchfork: The last time I talked to you, you were getting ready to do a show with the Brooklyn Philharmonic.
ED: I think they were at the Brooklyn Phil show. And then like six or eight weeks later, we got a call from our booking manager saying that they were interested in doing something. First, we had to check whether [composer] Nico [Muhly] could do it because he's really familiar with our music and he's good at doing arrangements for us; he worked on he album with us. But he was available, so it worked out, and I can't tell you how excited I am.
It'll be a different experience in the sense that the Brooklyn Phil show was us and Final Fantasy each doing a set, but we each only got 45 minutes with the orchestra, so we had to pick what songs we'd want to do with them. That show, we decided to pick songs that we didn't normally play live as a four piece, that we felt we could maybe only do with an orchestra. But this time, in addition to doing some of those songs, I think we are just going to do a full orchestra set, including songs that we have been touring as well as songs that we don't play live that often. So it should be a bit more of an epic orchestra experience. Or so I hope.
Pitchfork: Were you were happy with how the Brooklyn one went?
ED: Yeah! I mean, I was nervous, for sure. It was totally on new terrain, and you have a limited amount of rehearsal that you get to do, so it was a new process. And I don't know how to read music, and some of the other band members don't know how to read music, so there's a little bit of a communication barrier, which is where Nico comes in handy. He's become the translator between band and orchestra. But also you don't want to over-play and be too loud and swallow up the acoustics of the orchestra, which sort of defeats the purpose. There's just a lot of things that were new experiences. It was much more rigid, and you can't just be loose and go with it and improvise.
That said, they were actually really adaptable, much more than I thought. I remember there was a moment in a song where I missed my cue to come in, and it was fine. They just kept playing. I had this fear that if anything got messed up, it would throw everything off, that they were just reading sheet music religiously and they would just continue on and we would continue on. Then we would go off in different directions, and it would turn into big trainwreck. But it actually turned out really well, and I'm really excited to do it again. It's a fun treat for us to get to do these things because it's such a different way of approaching these songs. And it keeps things fresh for us because it's a different way of playing that we rarely get to do.
Pitchfork: The show's on Halloween. Are you going to encourage the orchestra to show up in costume?
ED: I was thinking about that. I was wondering whether it would be appropriate to dress up. The only other Halloween show I can remember we did, opening up for the Mountain Goats like four years ago at the Knitting Factory, we all dressed up. But something about performing with a really prestigious orchestra in a country that doesn't celebrate Halloween, and then dressing up, maybe seems mildly inappropriate. Or we could just surprise them with weird costumes, and it can turn into a bizarre farce, but I don't think that's a good idea.
Pitchfork: You guys went top 10 with this album.
ED: Yeah! That was a surprise.
Pitchfork: You weren't expecting it?
ED: Are you kidding me? If you just look at how much Yellow House sold, I don't think anyone anywhere expected that. I don't know what it was. We know there was a couple of digital deals for the week, so maybe that encouraged people to buy more. I don't know how it happened, but it happened. There was literally no one, I can promise you, inside the label or anywhere who expected anything like it. Maybe top 50 or maybe sell half of what was sold, but that was a total fluke and surprise. I couldn't believe it, especially after the whole leak fiasco. I guess this goes to show that leaks don't necessarily hurt, so we should all just chill out.
Pitchfork: Have you had labels chasing you around or anything after that happened?
ED: I think there was interest, but we're with Warp, and that's stuff that my manager deals with. They don't come write us on MySpace or something. We're with Warp for at least another album, and we love Warp, so it doesn't really even matter if there's labels or not. We're on a label that we love, and we're also contractually with them for another album.
Pitchfork: So you're not being taken out to dinner, taking advantage of the situation?
ED: Should we try to milk some really nice meals out of a couple people? That might be too late. Who knows who else is going to debut this year with something like that? If we weren't attached to a label, maybe that would have happened and I could tell you some really great five-star French restaurant stories of just milking. Sadly, we did not get to partake in major-label dinner extravaganzas.
Pitchfork: You guys are going to be pretty much all over the festival circuit this summer. Are you looking forward to that?
ED: I am! It's always a challenge and interesting because you don't really get a sound check, and we have a lot of pedals and stuff that sometimes need sound checks. But I think we're getting more and more used to it, and I'm really looking forward to Pitchfork, actually. It's one of my favorite festivals I ever played because it was just so chill, the way it's run. Everyone's just hanging out in the summer. It had a really relaxed atmosphere, whereas other festivals we've been to, it was sometimes a bummer when they're so big where you can't even go to visit other bands that you're friends with at their stage because you each don't have access to one another's stages. You're prevented from saying hello to one another!
With that said, it will be a lot of fun. It's a totally different experience playing festivals, and our music sounds totally different when it's in a big outdoor crazy party land festival kind of sphere. But they are always fun for us to play. We are getting to do some European locations that we have never been to before, so it will be really cool. I'm looking forward to it. It will be an adventure, a festivaling adventure. Lots of port-a-potties and food stands.
Pitchfork: How's the process different when you're picking a set for a festival instead of an indoor show?
ED: Well, you ditch the ballads. You ditch anything slow that you think might bore people in the hot sun. Us not being a four-to-the-floor dance band, that's a bit of a challenge. But we try to pick the songs that seem like they might translate best in a sort of mid-day festival set situation.
Pitchfork: Is there anything else that you're all working on?
ED: Mostly, we just have a lot of touring in front of us. We've got Europe, and then when it's winter we're going to do Australia and New Zealand, which I'm really, really excited about. None of us have ever been there. That'll be our first time flying there, which will be cool. There's some things here and there, but no, we're not working on a new album or anything.
