Hello everyone,
and welcome to our German word of today. This time we will have a look at the meaning of the word:
(der) Liebling – (pron.: leab-ling)
Now you might say: "Yeah I know where that comes from – love!" And of course die Liebe and Liebling have the same origin and stem – lieb.
Lieb can mean different things between the poles dear, nice and well-behaved.
- Liebe Maria, heute bin ich in Berlin angekommen…
- Keine Angst, keine Angst! Der tut nichts… der ist ganz lieb.
The first sentence could be used to start a letter with while the second one is something you are told by an old lady when one of those little dogs barks at you as if you just took away its bone. You have to be careful though because lieb does not apply to things the way dear or nice do. If your room looks lieb, it looks like the room of a person who is not going to harm anyone and if a good beer is lieb to you, it means that it treats you nicely and makes all your worries disappear but it does not mean that the beer is dear to you. So its better to use it only for living things for now.
But back to our actual word of the day Liebling. The two best translations in my opinion are darling and sweetheart. You can use it for your dog but it is also used by lovers of all ages. Of course there are many words lovers call one another. The animal kingdom provides dozens of possibilities like Hase, Maus , Schnecke oder Bär. The most common one, according to the German Wikipedia, is Schatz. Schatz literally means treasure so it is not a bad choice but the pronunciation really might bring it down because it sounds like… shots or shuts.
Now imagine yourself on a couch in a candle-lit room sipping red wine and you break the silence with "SHOTS!". A soft "Liebling" with an optional sexy tongue flap for the 'l'-sounds might be more appropriate :) .
Now if you have had a look at the Wikipedia-list of the most common words of endearment in German you might say "So why do we have to learn Liebling? It barely made it onto the list…".
The answer is the second meaning of Liebling. If you are not quite ready to say 'darling' to your crush as you are only on your first date, Liebling still is a very handy word to know as it also means favorite. Just put a little 's' at the end and then add whatever noun you want and you can start to exhaustively interrogate your love interest about his or her likings.
- Was ist dein Lieblingsfilm?
- Was ist dein Lieblingslied? (song)
- Was ist dein Lieblingsessen? (food)
- Was ist deine Lieblingsfarbe? (color)
- Was ist deine Lieblingspferderasse? (horse breed)
Note that Lieblings alone doesn't work. So if you want to say something like :
- "Oh my god, they have Tastybeer ™ here??? That is my favorite!!!"
you will need to say beer again:
- Oh Gott, die haben Tastybier™ hier??? Das ist mein LieblingsBIER!
To wrap this up here is that little bit of grammar you have all been waiting for.
The plural of Liebling is Lieblinge. You don't have to add extra letters except for case 3 plural where you will have to add an 'n'. It just never gets old.
Hope you enjoyed the word of the day and see you next time.
Just in case you ended up here doing a Google search for "Leibling" … if this is really the word you are looking for… it is NOT a German word. If you have seen it somewhere it must be a typo.

Jolly Frog celebrates the season at Issaquah Brewhouse
December 9, 2010
By Staff
NEW — 6 a.m. Dec. 9, 2010
'Tis the season at the Issaquah Brewhouse.
Jolly Frog — a beer described as sweet potato pie in a glass — is on tap for the holiday season.
The list of ingredients includes brown sugar, sweet potato and, of course, hops.
The brewery crafts a family of beers in a 15-barrel brew system at the downtown brewhouse, 35 W. Sunset Way. The brewery has earned more than 30 honors for taste and quality.
The brewhouse opened in 1994. Rogue Ales snapped up the pub a decade ago. The pub is a frequent gathering place for community groups.

Used bikes are individuals. Each has its own history, a past that has left it in better or worse shape than a seemingly identical counterpart. Some are well-kept cherries. Others are beat-up dogs. Most fall somewhere in the middle. So how do you avoid making someone else's problems your own? Here's a step-by-step guide to avoid bringing home a bike with a checkered past.
Before you get down-and-dirty with the bike's parts, give it an overall look, following three steps:
1. Do a casual walk-around.
Is the bike less than five years old, but still looks tired? Excessive grime, oil leaks or drips, scuffed paint and pitted, rusty or stained chrome are all clues that the bike has had a rough life.
2. Take a closer look.
Any bike that has been dropped, even if it just fell off its side stand, may have suffered more than just cosmetic damage. Be on high alert if you find any "road rash" indicating the bike may have gone down while moving. Repairing a bike with a bent or damaged frame can be hugely expensive and riding it can be dangerous.
If you do find road rash, ask the seller what happened. If he seems as if he's hiding something, walk away.
Big red flags include nonfactory welding repairs or, worst of all, a "salvage" title indicating an insurance company had totaled the bike at some point. These are cues to flee.
3. Inventory any damaged parts.
If you're new to riding and buying your first bike, you may not know about the shockingly high cost of bodywork. Don't be suckered into buying a bike that seems like good deal because it "only needs a few pieces of plastic replaced." Those little pieces of plastic headlight fairings, side covers, etc. can cost hundreds of dollars. Replacing a dented gas tank can cost you $500 or more. Bent or damaged exhaust headers can't be fixed, and replacements cost $1,000 or more.
You might still want to buy the bike, provided the price offsets the money you'll spend on fixes. But you still need more info.
4. Oil and filter changes.
Most bikes have "wet" clutches the clutch/transmission are integral with the engine and live in a bath of hot oil. Use of incorrect oil is bad news. The ideal candidate will be a bike with a record of regular oil and filter changes, backed up with receipts.
5. Forks and seal condition.
Look for cracked or leaky dust/oil seals on the front forks. If the internal oil seals are leaking, you typically will see fresh oil on the fork tubes. With an older bike, it's important to ask whether the fork oil has ever been changed. Also check the rear shock system for any signs of seepage; replacement parts can cost several hundred dollars.
6. Chain and sprocket condition.
Any used bike with more than 12,000 miles probably needs a new chain or will soon. Ask if the chain and sprockets have been replaced; if they have, find out when. Chains stretch out over time and must be replaced for safety's sake. Sprockets must be replaced when the teeth are excessively worn.
7. Valve adjustments.
Ask for receipts showing the valve clearance was checked at the specified mileage intervals. If the seller has no receipts, assume the work hasn't been done. If you buy the bike, don't ride it hard or long until you've had the clearances checked.
8. Brake/clutch fluid changes.
Brake/clutch fluid is stored in reservoirs mounted on the handlebars; if it's opaque and dark brown, it's probably contaminated and the entire system will have to be flushed out. Dirty brake/clutch fluid is another red flag that the bike was not cared for properly.
9. Gas tank rust.
Use a powerful flashlight to look inside the tank for rust. Replacement is expensive and a chemical treatment is a hassle. If you find rust in the tank, you shouldn't buy the bike.
10. Tire and brake condition.
Underinflated tires can make the bike handle poorly, even dangerously. Excessively worn or cracked tires are just plain dangerous.
Use a flashlight to check brake pads; the friction material should be readily visible between the calipers. Make sure there's enough material left for a safe test ride. If the bike needs tires or pads, you should use those points to haggle over price.
The final step in your evaluation is the test ride. This is a must. Any seller who won't let you try out the bike probably has something to hide. When you get set for the ride, follow this checklist:
11. Demand a cold start.
An already warmed-up bike could be hiding problems you'll discover later.
12. Check the idle.
The bike should start immediately and quickly settle into a regular idle without your having to work the throttle or choke to keep it from dying.
13. Watch for smoke.
At start-up, a small puff of blue or black smoke from the exhaust is OK, provided it goes away. If the engine continues to produce blue smoke while idling or when you hit the throttle, it likely has worn rings and low compression or needs a valve job. That's expensive work.
14. Check the headlight.
While the bike's idling, look at the headlight. Does it flicker or change intensity as the engine revs? If so, there may be a problem with the bike's charging system. Sometimes, an unscrupulous seller will disconnect a temperature light or oil pressure warning light to hide a problem.
15. Evaluate the clutch/transmission.
A light downward tap on the shifter should get you first gear; if it hangs up or seems to want to stay in neutral, there may be a transmission problem. You should not be able to shift into second gear from neutral while the bike is stationary. Once underway, the transmission should shift smoothly from gear to gear; if it ever pops out of a forward gear on its own, that's a sign of a potentially more serious problem with the gearbox. You do not want this bike.
16. Try the brakes.
Brakes should feel firm, not grabby or spongy. Pulsating, excessive softness or loud screeching could mean trouble.
17. Check the "feel."
This is the most important evaluation. If the bike doesn't track straight or somehow feels "not right," stop, get off the thing and split.
Unless it's a one-of-a-kind bike, it's not worth risking big problems and potentially big expenses. Move on to the next bike. You may not get to ride today, but you'll be riding happier when you finally do.

Lisa Miller - "How I Got Into Radio"
My first introduction to Dick Rakovan occurred in the Fall of 1985 when I was waiting for my flight to the NAB in New Orleans at Midway Airport. Dick was the General Manager of WFYR in Chicago and with Dick at the airport was Linda Packer Spitz (although I think she was just Linda Packer back then). Linda was Dicks national rep from RKO Radio Sales. As Linda introduced me to Dick, Dick began a tirade about my then business partner Saul Foos. Dick was not a fan of Sauls and decided that I should be the recipient of his angst. I asked Linda to explain to Dick that I was not like Saul. Linda had known me for years when she was my rep from my days at McCann Erickson. As a good salesperson Linda stayed silent and allowed me to battle with Dick all on my own. As we took our seats on the airplane, fate would have it, Dick and I sat across the aisle from each other. Two hours later he had invited me to dinner with his wife and I spent the evening meeting everyone in the radio industry. Because of all the people I know, Dick knows everyone in radio.
So here, in his own words, is how Snr. VP Membership Radio Advertising Bureau (RAB) Dick Rakovan got into radio .
When I was about 10 years old, I was confined to bed rest because of a bout of rheumatic fever. My parents both worked, so to keep me company, they bought me a new radio receiver. While serving out my sentence, the long-form radio shows like Don Mc Neills Breakfast Club, Hawaii Calls, and The Arthur Godfrey Show became my mind theatres" and companions.
Run the tape forward a few years. When the professors at the communications arts school at Michigan State got sick of me, I went to work for a Detroit record distributor and for several labels which included Verve, Time, and Dot Records. The president of Dot Records asked me to go to Buffalo, New York, and open a factory distribution branch, covering Northern Ohio, Pennsylvania, and upstate New York.
Along with calling on rack jobbers and large retailers for Dot, I called on all the major radio stations in the area with many hits by Pat Boone, Billy Vaughn, The Hilltoppers, and Lawrence Welk.
I routinely called on WKBW which was Buffalos leading radio station at the time. It was also heard all over the Northeast at night.
One afternoon, when I was headed into KB, I bumped into Jim Arcara who was the sales manager. He introduced himself and said hed seen me at the station often and asked, What do you do?" I told him I was in the record business! You?" he said with a look of doubt. He suggested we have lunch one day.
Over lunch he fessed up as to why he looked so shocked when I told him what I did for a living. He told me that he had never seen a record plugger in a suit. We had several lunches thereafter and he asked me to join WKBW as a salesman. Working for Capital Cities at KB was a wonderful opportunity. My childhood love for radio really panned out!

TOPEKA, Kan. -- Martin Mitchell scored 20 first half points en route to a career-high 32 but it was not enough as the No. 17-ranked Washburn Ichabods fell to Missouri Western 79-74. Washburn will wrap up the four-game home stand against Northwest Missouri on Saturday at 7 p.m. on Schendel Court at Lee Arena.
Both team shot above 50 percent in the first half as the Ichabods (14-5, 7-4 MIAA) were 13 of 26 from the field hitting 6 of 13 3-point attempts while the Griffons (9-12, 5-8 MIAA) were 13 of 24 going 4 of 9 from 3-point range hitting 54 percent of their shots as the Ichabods took a 40-36 lead into the halftime break. Washburn trailed by as many as nine in the first half at 16-9, but used a 10-0 over a 60 second stretch to take a three-point lead. Jared Henry scored five points during the stretch. Again the Griffons pushed out to a nine-point lead at 32-23 before MItchell would hit four straight 3-pointers on consecutive trips down the court to put Washburn up 35-32 as they would hold for the four-point lead at the break.
Out of the break, the Ichabods would score four straight by Joseph Smith to build a six-point lead and Washburn stretched its lead out to as may as nine points with 11:28 to play before a 9-2 Griffon run cut the lead to two with 8:22 to play.
Washburn led by three at 67-64 with 4:15 to play but Western finished the game on a 15-7 run to end the game snapping Washburn's four-game winning streak over the Griffons.
Mitchell's 32 points were the most by an Ichabod since Will McNeill scored 34 against Bellevue earlier this season. He became the first Ichabod to hit seven 3-pointers in a game since Eric Carter hit seven against Lincoln on Dec. 18, 1999. McNeill finished with 16 points and a game-high 10 rebounds recording his seventh career double double and his fourth of the season. Joseph Smith had 11 points marking his first start of the season. Kyle Wiggins and McNeill each had six assists as well.
Reed Mells led six Griffons in double figures with 18 points. It was the first time a team had recorded six double figure scorers against the Ichabods since Northwest Missouri did on March 7, 2004.
The Griffons finished with a 58 percent shooting mark hitting for 62 percent in the second half connecting on 26 of 45 attempts including a 10 of 20 performance from behind the 3-point line.
Washburn shot 46 percent for the game going 25 of 55 from the field but cooled off in the second half hitting only 2 of 11 3-point attempts. Washburn held a 32 to 25 advantage on the glass collecting 15 offensive rebounds leading to 18 second chance points.

The Royal College of Surgeons was a fitting venue for this special tasting. On the one hand, a charming and grandiose dining room befitting the finest wines. On the other, a
large and equally grand reception hall made a little less inviting by the presence of dissected livers immersed in formaldehyde … a timely reminder that over-indulgence is not a
great thing.
However, over-indulgence was not the order of the day. The wines of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti maybe expensive, and they may be the pinnacle of
many wine enthusiasts' tasting career, but their flavours bear no mark of over-indulgence. Balanced, stylish and complete certainly, but no hint of excess.
This is perhaps a reflection of Aubert de Villaine himself, who has worked at the Domaine since the 1960s. His reserved, aristocratic style is very much reflected in the wines.
His leanings towards poetry maybe also bear a part in the ephemeral qualities of the production. It must be stressed that the concentration, balance and purity of all the wines was
truly outstanding.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 2001
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Echézaux 2001
Quite a stalky nose, with almost sherbety fruit and a touch of sur-maturité. Surprisingly soft fruit on the palate, with a little lift of perfume. Tannins already approachable. Lovely, but perhaps a little simple, and not typical of the vintage.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Grands Echézaux 2001
A more opulent nose than the Echézaux, with perfume and sweet fruit. Palate is again fuller, and spicier, although there is still a slightly raisiny side. Quite tight and promising, and the length is already very good.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-St.-Vivant 2001
A really delightful nose - lavender, sage and butterscotch. Truly uplifting. The palate is as good - a balance of dense, dark fruits and herby, floral notes. Like a great Musigny, this is enchanting and complete. Great acidity and length too. Excellent.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Richbourg 2001 A big nose - slightly volatile with chocolate and dark, ripe fruit. Has a heady perfume which comes and goes. Pure Pinot fruit - sweet wild raspberries - manages to be very clean but dense and brooding too. Not showing full richness yet, but impressive and very, very good.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche 2001
A showstopper. You can almost smell the texture - cream and boiled sweets. Has a wonderful crème anglaise character on the palate, with ripe berry fruit, and a hint of spicy oak. Opened up enormously over the course of 30 minutes to a hearty, full-blown Burgundy that somehow exercises restraint too. Excellent.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-Conti 2001
Minerals, bay leaves, tar and sage on the nose. The infamous complexity of this wine showed as it seemed different on each sniff and sip over half an hour. Certainly herbal hints of brush, sage, ferns and dusty forest fruit. So complex, it really needs years to come out of itself. After ˝ hour, sweet cassis fruit and thick texture emerge. I have never tasted anything like it, and would love to taste it again in 15 years. Beguiling and excellent.

including time as winemaker's assistant in Provence, the Ardeche and Fitou. In the late 1990s he set up Luvians, an independent fine
wine and whisky merchant in St. Andrews, Fife. However, the lure of winemaking returned and having graduated with a degree in oenology from Lincoln University in New Zealand, Andy took his first wine making job in
the Roussillon region of France.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti brought their newly-bottled vintage to Edinburgh for a tasting. Tom Cannavan has filed his

Ready for another 180?
Sure, you've braced your kids for the early mornings. You've bought them their shoes and shirts and binders and book covers. You've even scheduled their haircuts and made sure their backpacks can handle another year of abuse. But have you prepared yourself for another 180 school days of packed lunches?
And what about your own lunches? We always say we'll pack our own because it's so much cheaper and healthier, yet somehow ...
Fact is, there's not a lot you can do to change the fact that lunch duty is a chore. But a little information – as well as the right gear – can keep it from turning into a dreaded chore. So let's start with some basics:
I don't mean plan out a week's worth of lunches. That's just crazy talk. Rather, at dinner the night before, cook a little too much. How much too much? It depends on how many lunches you need to pack the next day. Either way, those leftovers are your easy building blocks for lunch the next day.
Grilling steak or roasting a chicken? Make a little extra and turn it into sandwiches or wraps or a robust salad in the morning. Pasta night? Boil up a little extra. The next day, cold leftovers plus some bottled vinaigrette and whatever veggies or meat you have handy become an easy pasta salad.
Ditch the idea of structuring lunch around a main-with-sides model. That's fine when it works, but often it just puts extra pressure on us. Most people – and particularly kids – are just as happy with a bunch of small items to munch on. Assemble some fruit, fresh veggies, cheese, crackers or bread, a little cold meat, maybe a yogurt and you have a pretty satisfying meal.
And to make packing all those bits and pieces easier, get bento-style lunch containers. These containers generally have multiple small compartments, making it easy to pack chips and salsa and veggies and meat and cheese and a treat and whatever else inspires you.
Safe lunch packing all comes down to numbers. Cold food needs to stay below 40 degrees. Hot food needs to stay above 140 degrees. Once food falls outside those ranges, it's safe to eat for another two hours.
How do you use this information? Start by figuring out what time a packed lunch will be eaten. Now count backward to the time of day it will be packed. That's how long you need to maintain the food at a safe temperature. So when you shop for lunch gear – insulated lunch bags, thermoses, water bottles, etc. – only buy products with thermal ratings. These ratings tell you how long they can keep items hot or cold.
Start by deciding the types of lunches you'll pack most often. Lots of little nibbles? Bento boxes are for you. Plenty of soups, chili and hot items? Multiple thermos-style wide-mouth food jars need to be on your shopping list. Go through a lot of dips and hummus and condiments? Be sure your containers are water tight.
As a general rule, I like to get two of every container. This way there is less pressure to make sure the lunch gear from the day before is washed before morning. I also prefer stainless steel because it holds up to the dishwasher (and my destructive 10-year-old) better. But it's also costlier, and if you're buying multiples that can add up fast.

|Enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium as a corticosteroid-sparing agent for the treatment of autoimmune scleritis.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21099416 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|PURPOSE: To evaluate enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS) as a corticosteroid-sparing agent in the treatment of autoimmune scleritis.
METHODS: A retrospective, interventional, noncomparative review of EC-MPS use in patients with autoimmune scleritis.
RESULTS: Seven eyes of 5 patients (all female; median age: 47 years, range: 20-55 years) with inflammatory scleral disease were treated with EC-MPS. The mean follow-up duration was 16.4 months (range, 12-20 months). EC-MPS was started at 360 mg twice daily. The mean time to treatment success was 1.6 months (range, 1-3 months). The mean prednisolone dosage at the onset of EC-MPS was 24 mg daily (range, 15-30 mg), and this was reduced to 6.5 mg daily (range, 0-10 mg) as inflammation control was achieved. No severe adverse events except for 1 patient with transient knee pain were reported; the incidence of adverse events after using EC-MPS was 1/6.83 person-years. There was no recurrence of scleral inflammation during the follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: EC-MPS can be used as a corticosteroid-sparing agent to safely suppress inflammatory autoimmune scleritis.

It was my good fortune to accompany my wife to New Orleans, one of the most food crazy cities in the world, where she attended a three day business conference. This gave me some free time to explore the French Quarter, not only for food, but for records. I knew that the great historic city of New Orleans, the 'Birthplace of Jazz', Blues and Zydeco, would have to contain some record stores.
This town is overflowing with musicians, performing in a myriad of clubs, bars and street corners. It is inescapable and delightful. It's as if music is as necessary as breathing. Eating my way through the historic French Quarter, I came upon Peaches Records store on N. Peters St., lots of new vinyl and reissues with a smaller section on used vinyl.
Another location was the Beckham's Bookshop at 228 Decatur St. You enter into this dusty looking anti-diluvium shop faced with a myriad of shelves and boxes of old books. "Where are the records", l asked. The owner directed me to the stairway in the back to the third floor and was told to turn on the light switch when I got there. And, turn it off when I left. Climbing this creaky old wooden stair proved to be worth it. Here was a large selection of mostly classical records in boxes and shelves in a somewhat dusty and gloomy atmosphere. This was a place to look for gems and at $2.00/record.
I wish I had more time and a larger suitcase but it was all I could do to fit the records I bought. It's always a blast making discoveries like these stores and seeing that vinyl is very much alive. I know there are more record stores here but they will have to wait for another trip. So, if you're ever in New Orleans, visit these places and discover some on your own and let me know about them. Now, for some more beigniets and a café au lait at Café du Monde.
Keep listening.

Perhaps it's just me, but the Genesis version of this game seems to play faster than the SNES one. Having played this version a great deal when I was younger, I almost felt I was running and attacking in slow motion with the SNES version. Nevertheless, both are still excellent and worth playing.

I'd love to see some of the card games come to the VC. Ghost House was a lot of fun as I recall, and I had been trying unsuccessfully to remember the name of Transbot for a while now. Thanks for reminding me!
Of course, I'd also love to see the original Phantasy Star released as well. I never did manage to finish that game. Hopefully I am not the only one who got extremely lost in those first person dungeons...


text: Celeb Kickstarter Meets Embarrassing End Melissa Joan Hart gives up dream to star in a movie By Evann Gastaldo, Newser Staff Posted May 15, 2013 10:07 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (10) (Newser) – The success Zach Braff and the Veronica Mars movie found on Kickstarter seemed to presage a trend of celebrities using the crowdfunding site to raise money for projects. But, as Melissa Joan Hart learned the hard way, that tactic apparently only works for celebrities people still care about. The 1990s star of such teen fare as Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and Clarissa Explains It All wanted to snag her first leading role since the 1999 movie Drive Me Crazy, so she went on Kickstarter looking for $2 million with which to make a movie, Darci's Walk of Shame, starring herself. It did not end well for her, the Huffington Post reports. A month into the campaign, it had only raised $51,605 from the 315 people who want to see Hart back on the big screen, so it was canceled Monday. Why did it fail? Writing for the Daily Dot, Fidel Martinez speculates that her attitude could have been a problem: Hart seemed to be more passionate about re-making herself a star than she did about the actual movie. What we're also guessing didn't help: Her Kickstarter video, in which she says she doesn't know what a "walk of shame" is ... so her mom explains it to her. And then there's the bold description of the film ... you're not reading this wrong, it doesn't really make sense: "An impulsive act has Darci face enormous hurdles to get back to her sister's wedding & avoid her family witness her first walk of shame." And we just have to point out what fans would have gotten for their money. At the $100 pledge level, which had three backers: "Two of our main cast members (not Melissa Joan Hart) will follow you on Twitter for a full year. We don't know who they are yet, but we know you'll want them following you!" Fortunately, she still has her TV show Melissa & Joey, which co-stars fellow '90s star Joey Lawrence.

I sit on the steps of the casco viejo facing the sea. Narrow streets branch off behind and to either side of me, their old walls purified in new white. The sun is blazing and I sip on a litre glass of Coke and red wine. The grey sea laps against the graffitti'ed harbour wall I smile at the huge words This is not Spain nor France emblazoned across it's length, headlined and post-scripted by huge Basque flags. They have written it in the true lengua del diablo, an imperialists tongue. I hope for a time when the wee piece of land I am from is pronounced neither England or Ireland, but Nor'nir'n'. Different context, I know, but the Basque "problem" could be the answer if the Northern Irish politicians were as drunk as I am.
Huge red sandstone houses line the sea-front, some now just burned shells - someone's trophies in a minority Guerrilla war. Ships sluggishly edge up the vast inlet, towards the Getxo and Bilbao industrial harbours, passing under the only cablecar / suspension bridge I have ever seen, delivering the worlds produce to a country stripped of it's industry by a government hundreds of miles away. Spain's Scotland, drained of it's industrial wealth and resources to support a yuppie miracle down south; Thatcher would be proud. I think of Belfast, the huge yellow twin cranes, the new Waterfront Hall, The Crown, the Europa, the unemployed, the huge grey, dirty estates, the Malone Road, the dissatisfaction.
As I wait, I notice a TV flashing through the open bar door. My position on the warm, stone steps is quite close to the bar entrance and can hear the dubbed Spanish. The Calimotxo is going to my head. It is a pleasant way to get drunk, like a fizzy fruit juice with kick. Sitting here, in the sun on my own, knowing no-one; no-one knowing me; I have become immersed in random thought. In life these moments are rare. These moments of the creation and inhabitation of a unique world where the only truth that matters is the one I have constructed. A world were I can allow the outside in at will.
One of the Star Trek spin-offs is on. It is Voyager. That Borg girl, Seven from Nine, is very sexy. Cold, blonde and dressed in a sprayed on uniform. Her image accentuates her sexiness. I hope never to see an episode were she becomes more human or to see the actress in twentieth century clothes, posing for Esquire. It would be like Spock becoming emotional, or seeing Leonard Nimoy earless and delivering a dirty after dinner speech. Her lack of emotion, her puzzlement at the human condition and her ruthless pursuit of the truth captivate me. She has saved an otherwise crap series; her and that doctor hologram. Between them they usually save the ship / a world / the universe, single handedly. They impose their American values on alien cultures, bringing their version of democracy to ridge headed aliens. I await the day when they replicate a Big Mac.
I wonder what they would make of the Basque region and it's bigotries? How would they impose themselves? What would they think of those who already do? But I am aware of the dangers of listening to only one perspective, does Seven from Nine or Captain Kirk?
A soft cooling breeze streams over and around me. I look around, hoping to see a familiar face but my gaze is met only by groups of the accumbent tightly clothed young and beautiful, drinking in the sun and the fizzy txacoli.
I used to like science fiction. I used to read 2000AD, Judge Dredd, M.A.C.H.1 and all of that lot. I stopped because I didn't want to become one of those nerds stuck in fantasy worlds. One of those greasy haired, moustachioed, sweat stained office workers working out their next strategy as Krub the Keeper of the Truth, or something. It's like chart music. You buy Smash Hits, NME or, in my day, Sounds. You build up an encyclopedic knowledge of pop music through the ages; who was number one on the eighteenth of February 1966, who has had the highest entry the largest number of times, who has the biggest selling twelve inch single, who kept Vienna off the top spot, who were the key members of Big in Japan? You spend hours flicking through vinyl and CDs'. You wear the tee-shirts, decorate your room with the posters and squeeze your spots. Then you discover music with a capital M; the World of Music, music through the ages, making music. New Order ceases to matter. It becomes a decent tune but it's relevence is diminished. It's limited market becomes apparent. It dates in a way you know Chopin, Charlie Parker, Elvis, Mozart and Bob Marley won't. It doesn't matter when you appreciate the history of popular music, Mambo, Irish folk and Gregorian Chants. You look at the world from above.
I recognise Aitor as he runs down the steps towards the shore. I wave, but he doesn't see me and I am thankful as I want to be alone when she arrives.
Captain Kirk and his mates usually stumble across a planet in peril. The Overgrounders are kicking the shit out of the Undergrounders, or something. The Star Trek crew materialise in a hollow rock strewn studio. Someone in a different colour uniform from the main cast members happen to mention their wife and wee boy and how much he misses them (for it is never a she) and promptly die. That makes C.K., Spock, Bones and Scotty personally involved, even though they never knew nor cared about Ensign Smith. The planet's problems are solved, via logical thinking, C.K. having a snog and Bones' ever present incredulity. The Over and Undergrounders are happy and grateful for the riddance of cold power hungry dictators (who always look as if they are a different race) and C.K. et al beam off.
In real life the crew wouldn't have gotten any farther than saying what a beautiful planet it was, it is a pity it is such a troubled world and hoping the two sides would, someday, see sense. They couldn't express an understanding for the Underground people who had killed their crewmember, nor could they be seen to be in political dialogue with the Overgrounders as this would be some kind of league with the oppressors. Outside help would not be welcome, both sides at some stage of their intervention would accuse them of knowing fuck all as they don't live there. Kirk and his mates would fuck off and forget about the parochial bastards. Let them keep at it until an eye for an eye blinds them all. Kirk knows where the party's at and it's not being caught up in diametrically opposed hatreds, fuck that - he wants culture, good booze, mind altering substances, freedom to come and go, to be loved by everyone, money, MacDonalds and purple, scaly, scantily dressed women. Territorial arguments, religious bigotry and insular societies can stay out of his five year plan. I smile and imagine Kirk patting a grateful looking Paisley and Adams on the back and disapearing into a grainy, multicolured shadow.
I think about the paramilitaries. They probably identify with Star Trek, it's simple truths, good against bad, it's unexplained politics / theology. Yes, those bastards probably like science fiction.
My plate of pintxos arrive via a smiling, fair haired waiter. He is one of the paradoxes of this region. He is more Germanic looking than the stereo-typical Manuel. I pay him in Spanish money and he walks away, making me feel like the dirt on his shined, black shoe. My freckly skin and paunch are features only seen on bar-flys or foriegners and both are seen as unfortunate. American or English are both equally disliked amongst a large proportion of the Basque popultion. Cultural interlopers and Imperialists are as unwelcome as a Spaniard in a Herri Batasuna bar. I always make sure my Irishness is made obvious early in any conversation. The Irish and the Scots are equally revered here. The Bravehearts and the freedom-fighters. As soon as this is known I must listen to and respond favourably to their politics. A drink is thrust into my hands and I precariously steer a neutral ground, though I make it clear I am disgusted at the Franco regime and what it unleashed on these beautiful people. If I wish to shock some bigotted, hatred filled ETA supporter, and if I am particularly drunk, I challenge the pally-wally relationship they think they have with another European fight for freedom. I tell them that the English are not who the Republicans are killing, in actual fact both sides are killing subjugated working class northern Irish. Republicans are killing the ancestors of poor Scots forced out of their crofts or uprooted in order to help a politically weak regime in Ireland. Loyalists are killing people who are as subordinated as they themselves and their ancestors have been. The English ancestors were usually those who wanted power devolved from London and the poor Scots were given land in return for support for London. The Irish natives culture was sopped up by the English / New Irish and, like the English Scottish Lairds, they became more native than the natives. The rich bastards with profits to make took the money and ran a long time ago, like the thirteenth Earl of Cavan or the eighth Viscount of Bangor. The so called Scots-Irish are fighting for their transplanted "Wee bit hill and Glen" and the so called Green-Irish are fighting for an Ireland that has never existed. Two thousand years ago Ireland's fuedal systems were not unlike England. Kings fought and competed for power, a kingdom was even founded in Argyll, East Gael or East Ireland. One thousand years ago the country was invaded by the Normans, like England. Three hundred years ago it was invaded by the Dutch, just like England. The two religious "enemies" are still fighting feudal wars that have been over in the rest of Europe for three hundred years. If the Basque is particularly bigoted and perhaps a little educated in the Northern Irish problem, I will be jokingly, though jaggedly, called "Engleesh". If the person is very politically minded and shows a genuine interest in dialogue, I tell him that I believe the ETA went the way of the IRA after the Carerras killing. They have just made enemies in their own land ever since. We agree to disagree and move on. Usually he will just smile and shake my hand and say, "Gerry Adams", excitedly and buy another drink. The best conversations are with those who don't speak much English. We exchange phrases like una trompa de te cagas (I'm as drunk as a fart) or pedo fuerte, always good for a laugh and promise to meet for a drink some other night.
I finish my finger food and knock back the last of my calimotxo. I stand up and walk into the bar. I set my plate and plastic glass on the old wood and order another litre of the intoxicating soft drink. I know he is thinking, "another drunken foriegner". I smile and look as vacant as I can in order to fit into his compartmentalised world.
She is late.

Samsung Galaxy S III GPU benchmark pops up, tops charts

> In reply to Anonymous @ 2012-04-23 17:49 from 4bve - click to readmy friend the website compared the bechmark with the ipad3 3 because it have the strongest chip the A5x that will probably go into the new iphone but will be clocked at a lower speed.
i am not a fan of apple but they present a powerful device a the best apps.
the reason i like android because i can install roms and widgets. it is the most customizable.
while nokia phones have a better lifetime and very beautiful and diverse devises.
plz stop the flame war going on in every single post that is just shameful of every body.
finally, what samsung is doing is not ethical business they are making tec people wait instead of buying the htc one x to maximize their profits.
i am waiting for 3 may to be amazed but if the device fail me. it is bye bye to samsung forever for me.

Galaxy S III available for preorder; sports a EUR599 price tag
23 Apr, 2012, 10:09 am IST | by Aaron Almeida |
It is sufficient to say that the world is eagerly awaiting the launch of the next flagship handset from Samsung and it is fair enough to say that this is the most anticipated product launch that does not come from Cupertino. Samsung has not yet announced the Galaxy S III but Amazon appears to have taken a little shine off the secrecy of the big announcement by putting up a page on their German website that allows one to preorder the smartphone.
The product listing on Amazon
On the preorder page, Amazon has also listed a few specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S III. The page does not show any image of the smartphone but it does detail the smartphone as having a 4.7-inch Super AMOLED display, a 12 megapixel camera and running on the Android OS. The last bit of information is not surprising at all since the handset is expected to be released running the latest mobile operating system from Google, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. However, what comes as an interesting bit of information is the screen size and the camera capabilities. The reason this gets interesting is because a few days ago a Vietnamese website posted a video with what they claim is a hands on with the Galaxy S III. They also claim that the screen size is 4.6-inches as opposed to the 4.7-inch size shown off on the Amazon page. Another dissimilarity is that during the hands on with the product, the Vietnamese website stated that the smartphone sported an 8MP shooter and not a 12MP rear camera.
However, this may merely be a product listing page for the smartphone and the online retailer can change it when Samsung officially announces the smartphone. The website shows off the price of the handset as well with it being available for EUR599 which roughly translates to around Rs. 41,384. However, this smartphone may not sell in India at this price and may cost higher or lower depending on the fluctuations in the currency rate.
Let us know your reactions about the supposed price of the Samsung Galaxy S III in the comments below.

I don't think this will beat the Lumia 900 in sales. The Lumia 900 is a beauty and it's selling like pancakes. Samsung will be lucky to sell half as many Lumia 900 sold.

Looking for a mom (preferably single) for a video piece with the same theme. I am seeking a certain look. Classic, throwback beauty is a plus and a daughter less than 5 yrs old is best. Pay is negotiable. It probably would be 1-2 days of work. It will also be fun. I'm very laid back, creative, professional type. Please respond with pictures.
Thank you,

I Can Stop Her
I Forgot My Keys
Two Families Died in One House

Hi, I'm from Long Island and recently found out that a) JD is NOT bourbon and b) I like bourbon. Bought a bottle of Woodford Reserve (i know, but I'm a newbie) and found a bourbon thread on bladeforums.com started by mongo (pocket knives and whiskey go well together - everyone here should check it out).
Anyhew, went to the local big warehouse (non-chain) store where they had Blantons Bakers, Basil Haydens, Russell Reserve 90, Rare Breed, Maker's Mark, Bulleit, Knob Creek, WT 101 and so on. Picked up a bottle of the RR90 last weekend but haven't had a chance to try any due to migraines, stomach virus, death in the family, death in my wife's family (it's been a bad week - can't wait for a pour or two). But already, just by smelling the bottle, I can tell that the RR is going to be more flavorful than the WR.
Went to a smaller higher priced store yesterday. Turned out the proprietor is a bourbon nut and had all of the previously listed plus Four Roses and Buffalo Trace. And he said he'll order others if I'm interested.
So, I think my plan is to "back into" a cheaper daily pour. I think once I put a dent in what I already have, I'll have to compare BT to WT 101. what do you think?

With its sleek contour, smooth ride, and cool vibe, any convertible is definitely fun to drive, especially for car owners who like travelling with the top down and having the soft breeze touch their skin and tousle their hair. Let your roof down by ensuring your convertible top is well-connected to its top cover release cable, a unit that allows easy opening and closing of your ride's top. Available in varying sizes and specs, this cable helps make sure that the top is mounted securely; it works together with the frames to support the convertible top and avoid unnecessary swaying or sudden detachment while you are speeding down the highway.

I would like to set up a formula that uses the text from an adjacent cell to
determine the sheet and cell location that is used in the formula. i.e.
instead of =IF(sheet1!P9>0,sheet2!A4,"") I would like the sheet1 part of the
formula to be the text from a cell beside the formula cell. How do I do tell
the formula to use that text rather than havin gto specify the sheet each
Try it like this...
A1 = Sheet1

The function you need to look up in Excel help is INDIRECT.

with sheetname in cell C1
=IF(INDIRECT("'" & C1 & "'!P9")>0,Sheet2!A4,"")
What about using RAnge Names. In Excel 2003 these are file specific in scope in 2007 you can set them Globablly or by sheet. When entering formulae or referring to any area on the spreadsheet, it is usual to refer to a "range". For
example, B6 is a range reference; B6:B10 is also a range reference. A problem with this sort of reference is
that it is not always easy to remember what cells to reference. It may be necessary to write down the
range, or select it, which often means wasting time scrolling around the spreadsheet. Instead, Excel offers
the chance to name ranges on the spreadsheet, and to use these names to select cells, refer to them in
formulae or use them in Database, Chart or Macro commands.

TY all - INDIRECT is the function I needed but am having some errors on some
cells so may be looking for more input later.

Google's Schmidt: YouTube has overtaken traditional TV
updated 05:15 pm EDT, Sat May 4, 2013
Google chair says that YouTube is the future
Google chairman Eric Schmidt is big on YouTube, saying that the Google-owned video sharing service is the way of the future. Speaking at an event for advertisers and brands this week, Schmidt said that YouTube enables an interactivity that's not possible on regular television. The service recently passed one billion unique users, and Schmidt believes it will determine the way that video content is consumed from here forward.
"The future is already here," Schmidt said at Pier 36 on Manhattan's Lower East Side, according to CNET. "Video is becoming the global shared experience."
YouTube visitors -- now in excess of one billion per month -- consume about six billion hours of video on the site every month. The user base spans generations, but YouTube executives believe the service will maintain a lock on the attention of younger users.
"If you want to win that under 40 generation, you've gotta be on YouTube," said YouTube's president of the Americas, Margo Georgiadis.
Since buying the popular video service some years back, Google has continually expanded the reach and capabilities of YouTube. In February, the company added the ability to share YouTube videos from a smartphone or tablet to a smart television. Last year, analysts predicted that Google would net $3.6 billion from YouTube's operations.
