Look on YouTube for anything in Welsh just to get an idea of how sing-song the language is, it'll help your pronunciation even though it sounds like gobbledegook (and yes, it's nonsense to me as well, I'm nowhere near fluent). To be honest, my own pronunciation is considered pretty rubbish by my nearly-fluent housemate, but as he comes from a totally different part of Wales I think there are different accents involved too.
I really do wonder why it's Gallod and not Callod! Some letters in Welsh 'mutate' - they change depending on what words they're following. For example, Cardiff is Caerdydd, but in Cardiff is yng Nghaerdydd, which is easier to pronounce than it looks. But Callod is the starting word, so why would it be mutated? XD Perhaps it doesn't mean stalk at all and is just a meaningless name.
It is fun to sit there and make funny sounds, though :)

Walt Disney Studios has begun re-rendering the Oscar-winning animated feature, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, in preparation for its Disney Digital 3-D debut on the big screen in 2010.
The announcement was made today in Singapore at 3DX: 3D Film and Entertainment Technology Festival by Mark Zoradi, president, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Group. The addition of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST to its schedule brings the total number of Disney Digital 3-D releases to 11 for 2009-10.
Next year's 3-D schedule includes JONAS BROTHERS 3-D CONCERT MOVIE (February 27, 2009), Disney-Pixar's UP, (May 29, 2009), G-FORCE from Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer Films (July 24, 2009), the newly re-rendered Disney Digital 3-D debut of Disney-Pixar's TOY STORY (October 2, 2009), and A CHRISTMAS CAROL, from director Robert Zemeckis (November 5, 2009) and starring Jim Carrey in multiple roles.
In addition to BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, Disney's 3-D offerings for 2010 include Disney-Pixar's newly re-rendered 3-D version of TOY STORY 2, Tim Burton's ALICE IN WONDERLAND starring Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter, the debut of the new TOY STORY 3 from Disney-Pixar, Disney's new animated fairy tale, RAPUNZEL, and from Touchstone Pictures STEP UP 3.
Creating a Disney Digital 3-D version of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, which won two Oscars and is the only animated feature to ever receive a Best Picture nomination from the Motion Picture Academy, will be handled entirely in-house at Walt Disney Animation Studios, and will utilize innovative proprietary software, along with the latest techniques and advances in 3-D technology. Overseeing the project from the creative end will be the film's original team of filmmakers -- producer Don Hahn, and directors Kirk Wise and Gary Trousdale. A team of technical experts at Walt Disney Feature Animation will be headed by Sara Duran-Singer, SVPof Worldwide Post Production. The re-rendering is expected to take about nine months to complete, and will require a painstaking frame-by-frame analysis of the film's original computer files in order to create new images for each eye.
Hahn, producer of the original BEAUTY AND THE BEAST feature as well as the upcoming Disney Digital 3-D version, added, "It's a real thrill to be reunited with the film's original directors, Kirk and Gary, in bringing new magic to this beloved animated classic. By going back to the original animation files, which have been carefully archived for 17 years, and using the separate background, effects and character animation elements, we're able to come up with a fun and unique 3-D experience for existing and new fans of the film. With its exciting story, dazzling musical numbers, and landmark computer animated ballroom sequence, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST lends itself particularly well to the 3-D process, and moviegoers will feel more connected than ever with the fairy tale world of Belle, Beast and the castle's enchanted objects. It's wonderful to revisit some of our favorite animated friends, and to bring them to life in a whole new way."
Originally released in 1991, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST proved to be a major success at the box office (the first animated feature to cross the $100 million plateau in its initial release), a favorite with moviegoers all over the world and an important milestone for the art of animation. In addition to its unprecedented Oscar nomination for Best Picture, it received five other nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (and won trophies for Best Song and Best Original Score). The film also won a Golden Globe Award for Best Comedy/Musical and garnered two Grammy Awards. A Broadway stage musical, based on the film, played from 1994 through 2007, and became the sixth-longest running production in Broadway history with 5,464 performances.

Heartbroken actor Johnny Depp has sold his share in the nightclub where his friend River Phoenix died in 1993.
The SLEEPY HOLLOW star says The Viper Room brings back too many upsetting memories and he's decided to sever all ties with the exclusive establishment.
Depp is also fed up and disgusted with people who travelled to the club just to see the spot where close friend Phoenix collapsed and died from a drugs overdose at only 23-years-old.
The 41-year-old Hollywood hunk hasn't set foot in the in Los Angeles venue for two years and has been looking for a buyer for several months.
A club insider says, "Johnny really loved the club and put his heart and soul into the place. But the years since River's death have taken their toll. He thought the bad memories would fade over the years but it has just got harder.
"Johnny was really upset people just came to gawp at the spot where River died. That's what led to his decision to let his stake go."19/09/2004 15:05

Premiums for the existing high-risk pools average several hundred dollars a month, higher than health coverage for healthy individuals. However, if risk pools are broadened to include more than just high-risk people, costs will decrease. Currently government provides part of the funding for high-risk pools.
Healthcare risk pools can be managed with very little government involvement, and for optimal efficiency should be administered at the local level. Several of the 35 state-level high-risk pools are managed by nonprofits, not the government. Federal high-risk insurance pools, which were started under the Obama administration in July 2010 through the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Program, have proven to be twice as costly as state-level pools. 18 states have opted to have the federal government run their high-risk pools.
Risk pools should be combined with high co-pays, like $50 or so per visit. This would create a disincentive for the type of people who run to the doctor for every little thing. There are some risk pools already in place in the private sector. Tellingly, some of them are managed by doctors.
Requiring employers to provide healthcare coverage is driving companies out of business in this dismal economy. It creates a disincentive for Americans to run their own small businesses. Even if small businesses do not have to provide healthcare for their employees, they still need healthcare for themselves. If employers were no longer required to provide healthcare insurance, everyone would buy into a risk pool instead.
ObamaCare is expected to terminate healthcare risk pools. In 2014, the ObamaCare provision making insurance mandatory for everyone goes into effect. Sadly, a real system of risk pools will have never been given a chance. Insurance companies will claim victory, confusing the public into thinking that costly high-risk insurance pools were the same thing as insurance pools for everyone. Yet as high as costs are for high-risk insurance pools, even they are lower than we will see under ObamaCare when the inefficient federal government bureaucracy takes over.

The Mountain Goats Hello, Old Rabbit Lyrics
Last updated: 12/28/2012 07:34:58 AM
Sponsored LinksI saw the long row of blue bells.
I saw the fox glove and the night shade.
I saw the cool garden and i though a while about
How i'd been waiting for you since the second grade.
The flowers made the air boil.
The boiling air made me think of you a while.
I did not come here to suffer.
I did not come here to suffer.
I heard the ducks all quacking.
I saw the sunshine on the lake.
I saw you standing near the water
And wondered how long i'd be paying for one dumb mistake.
The sight of you was really something else.
But i don't know what that something else was.
I did not come here to suffer.
I did not come here to suffer

Auto TECH expo will focus equally, but at separate times, on providing shop owners, managers and technicians both educational and shopping opportunities. Help create success by using our Auto TECH expo marketing aids to invite customers and prospects to your exhibit.
When it's all said and done, nearly every person who's ever attended a trade show can recall the time he or she received some piece of information that made a great difference to the business.

This moisturizer did nothing for my skin and I believe I've given it multiple chances. The smell doesn't bother me, the light texture is fine but for me it just doesn't hold up to deliver the moisture I need for my face during any season/ environment and it doesn't help to improve the condition of my skin in any way. By the end of it all I really can't figure out what I paid for.

So, I have to be completely honest, (which is what this website is all about, right!?), I have a love/hate relationship with this products. I am going to say that YES, this products sinks into the skin at night and when you wake up, your face feels like a babies butt. Literally. My face is so smooth and has been a perfect canvas for makeup lately and I really contribute it to this product. HOWEVER, yes the smell is not good! But what's more, and I didn't really see anybody else really talk about this, is that the product seems to separate! My mom gave me 2 jars for Christmas one year and I had to throw one of them out without even finishing the product because it separated and it just didn't "work" anymore. Did this happen to anyone else? It separates cream from like a yellow oil. Ughh, not appealing. But like I said, my face has been pretty smooth.

This is my HG of moisturizers. I have really picky skin, and I love this product. It sinks into my skin really fast, so I don't have to wait forever for it to dry. I wear it under my makeup and have great results.
*warning* do not keep this product in a warm or climate changing area. It will totally screw it up. Just an FYI

I just bought this last week, day and night cream. Reason i would purchase this is because i saw someone introduce this on tv an di thought of trying it(it sounded so much like if you miss this product is a waste), so i tried it. Night cream is completely fine on me(though no special visible result compare with other products, if ran out of it i might consider to purchase but definitely not day cream. First thing first, i DONT like the smell!! Second, when i apply on my face, i think it irritate my skin as i feel it sting my face and a little bit irritating though there is no visible irritation like redness or anything appear on my skin.

There is nothing special about this moisturizer. I only used it at night since it is too heavy and thick for daytime use. The pros about this moisturizer is It didn't make me break out and I like the mild scent; However the cons about this product are: 1.too expensive for a mediocre moisturizer 2. Makes my eyes water if it gets anywhere near them 3. Unsanitary twist top jar and 4. Philosophy is not a cruelty free brand. I wouldn't repurchase this and I feel like people only buy this product because of the brand name.

Bought this is Gatwick airport with a small cleanser. Only need a small amount as it spreads well. Feels greasy at first but soon soaks in and leaves skin matt. My skin is quite greasy even though I.,m nearly 49 so I don�t need to add any extra oil and this seems to help keep the grease at bay. Would buy again . Comes in a 60ml jar which gives you 10ml more than the majority of face creams that come in 50ml jars.

I am a person who is continually trying to find a good moisturizer. I am acne prone and I have oily skin. My skin has been terrible to me this winter. It's a combo of oily, dry, and break out prone. But This moisturizer, wow, so far so good! Weirdly enough, it hasn't broken me out. Yet Iv read others broke out on this. My skin can get scaly in some areas and this was moisturizing enough to clear these areas after three days! Only down side is It does have a very strong citrus smell, almost like orange oil. It absorbed so well though. I have only a sample size of this and am going to purchase the full size.

This is, without a doubt, my HG. I love this foundation, love the company, the customer service, everything. In my quest for the perfect mineral makeup, I have tried MANY (BE, Philosophy, Lumiere, Monave, Meow, and several others). I really, really loved EM until I tried Alima. And don't get me wrong, I still love EM and will continue to buy lots of their products! However, Alima lasts all day on my skin (normal/dry), doesn't make me too dry or too oily, is a great color match (Satin N2). Its also not too shiney (like BE!) or too Matte.

I'm a huge experimenter of foundation. I've tried them all. BE (didn't care for it), Armomaleigh (GREAT STUFF), Jane Iredale (nice but expensive), Loreal (pretty much what I expected..not impressed), Everyday Minerals (didn't last very long but started out great)...and the most recent finds were Lumiere and Alima. They were both EXCELLENT mineral foundations. I have no complaints about either. I could use either of these and be VERY happy. In the end, Lumiere won. I think it's a little smoother and has a flawless finish all day. But you could definitely do worse than Alima. GREAT product.

I found this foundation to be a little dry on my oily skin when first applied but then looked greasy within 2 hours and made my pores stand out even when using my primer. I also really never found a color match. They have a range of colors but I couldn't find one that really matched my warm skin tone (peachy/golden) undertones. Warm and Goldens were both too yellow and neutral was too brownish pink.

This product was easy to find a colour match, N1 Chiffon matches my NW20 skin fine. I did fid the texture a little chalky and felt it looked as though I was wearing powder. Didnt enhance my skin. (prefer EDM, I have a review for this too) Didnt make me breakout however though I tried it only for a short time. I personally think with minerals its very individual and you just ahve to experiment with different brands.....samples are a great way to do this as you dont really loose out then paying out for it.

When i tried the samples it was great so i bought the full one in W1 not long ago. The first time when i wear it, it was thick enough on my skin but a bit chalky this time. After using for few weeks now I realise that my skin starts to itch and slowly develop bumps too. I was so in love with this product that i was not happy with effect on my skin so i spot-check on the jar and there's a black dirt particles inside of the jar (just the surface if it and the side of it which can see from the jar itself).
I'm so clueless about the dirt , where it came from since it was inside the jar with the minerals and not sure how long it have been there. But luckily the concealer is ok though!

Alima is the latest MMU that I've sampled on my quest to find the perfect MMU.
I've also been on a quest for about the last 30 years to find the perfect foundation.
In the different brands of MMU, I have tried :
JI - AB- shiny. Poor colour match. Huge pores.
JI - PPB- love that it is pressed but again, poor colour match (and I've tried several of them) and does nothing to keep shine at bay.Also has a tendency to change colour on me after about an hour of wear.
Pure Luxe - unable to find a colour match, good coverage though.
J Lynne - my skin itched like crazy.
Lily Lolo - skin itches a little, cannot get the coverage I require
Melange - no colour match
Ok those are just a few. My skin is tough to match as my other foundation reviews prove.
Ordered Alima last Wednesday, and it arrived today, Tuesday, from Oregon USA to England in less than a week. Very impressive!
I ordered 5 samples. I've only sampled the N2 today and although I am not convinced yet that the shade is just right, the formulation of this MMU is as wonderful as most of the other reviews here say it is. I have red veins to cover and open pores. This goes on so nicely ( I used the Alima brush #25), and a couple of light layers later I was good to go.
The colour did not change after I applied it, even now 7 hours later. This is a MAJOR selling point for me as foundations often oxidise on my skin.
Sure I have some oily breakthrough, but I am happy to say that IF I can get a perfect colour match, I think I will be able to give this HG status, thereby saving myself a fortune on La Mer Creme foundation which so far is my favourite.
I will be trying my other samples over the next few days to try to get a perfect match, and will update shortly
22/09/07 ETA: I do like this better than all the other minerals but it is not quite HG. That honour goes to the La Mer Treatment Foundation. But for a quick casual daytime make up this is great.

What I like about this foundation is the colour range, I have pinky toned skin but prefer to use a foundation with a little yellow base to it. Alima literally covers all options, although I personally found the cool shades very grey looking with no pink it them at all. I usually use a warmer shade, but with Alima my preferred shade is the neutral ones, which have just the right amount of yellow in to cover blemishes/redness etc
My advice would be to order several shades in their generous sample pots, which are a good price too.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure

Best foundation I've ever tried, hands down. I have oily/combo skin, with not a lot of breakouts but I have some freckles and bit of scarring that I prefer covered up. Alima gives a natural but good coverage without looking fake and like a mask.
I LOVE that they offer samples, because I had to order over 10 samples before finding a match, and I was able to mix samples in order to find my perfect shade. I was never able to do that with BE, and ended up wearing a color that was wrong for me because they didn't have a perfect match for me. With Alima I can mix to my exact shade, and it looks so much more natural than BE.
Right now I am wearing a mix of W2, W3, W4, N2 and N3. That sounds kind of crazy but it works for me right now. Whose samples run out, I will keep mixing and find what works.
I have also gotten tons of compliments on my makeup since I started using Alima, which definitely says something. I cannot rave enough about this makeup and the company as well. The customer service is amazing, they return emails within the day, and my order is almost always shipped out the same day, and arrive in 2 or 3 days across the country. I have found my perfect foundation!
Less is more with this foundation, I find that if you apply too much, it will look chalky and ashy, but very thin layers give a perfect coverage. I also reccommend reading Alima's website tips about applying the foundation.
And one last rave, I was using the EoB Control Powder brush and got good results, but I recently got the Alima #25 brush, and the foundation looks 10 times better when applied with the #25 brush. See my review on that!

I'm on my second jar of this mineral foundation and I'm pretty satisfied. I think I will stick with this foundation and brand in general for quite a while.
Before Alima I was just using concealer on my face and nothing else. I haven't used a liquid or cream foundation in a long time because I don't want to be putting too much on my acne-prone face. I finally decided I wanted more than concealer so I went and researched all of the mineral makeup brands. Since most of the actual mineral foundations are the same basic ingredients, I just wanted to see which brand sounded like one I'd like to support.
I love the fact that they send me 5 different free samples every time I order!! Who doesn't like samples? Not only that, but they encourage recycling (after you send in 5 empty full-size jars you get a coupon for a free eyeshadow.) Last but not least, they make me feel dorky and special each time I see "Thanks, Tiffany! =)" handwritten in pink gel ink on my packing slip. Hahaha.
As for the actual foundation, while this is the first and only mineral foundation I've used, I don't expect miracles or full coverage from any sort of powdery natural makeup, but it definitely makes me look a lot better than just using concealer alone. What's more important to me is using something vegan, cruelty-free and natural on my unfortunately acne-prone skin.
Anyway, like I said, most mineral brands generally have the same basic ingredients so you're really just shopping around for a brand that cares about their customers. You should definitely consider Alima.

I've used Everyday Minerals for a long time(over 6 mos,so for me a long time :P) and have been pretty satified.I got some Alima samples in a swap and I love it-the N-1,surprisingly is a perfect match for my NC20 skin.I have been using Golden Fair and Fawn from EM and I noticed to my horror the other day how yellow my face looked in natural light.It was on the verge of jaundice,seriously.I have found N1 and Warm Almond(?) W-1,for reference-to be a better color match,though I do love EM for their prices and cs,I may be ordering from Alima instead.Staying power is a bit better than EM and Jane Iredale imo as well,which is a plus in the August heat.
UPDATE: I just bought the full size W1,perfect shade match,and fast,fast shipping.I also find this to be a better value for the $ in regards to the amt of product for the price.

Sheep in Wolf's Clothing
A little more than 20 years ago, in an administration fearful of Minneapolis cops being unfairly targeted by a newly formed Department of Civil Rights (DCR), Mayor Charles Stenvig led a campaign that removed police from the DCR's jurisdiction. Now, with a self-described law-and-order administration and an election season tempered by strained race relations, the two-decade-old question is being raised once again: Why are Minneapolis cops the only branch of city government not subject to a department whose mission it is to enforce anti-discrimination law?
Voters will get the opportunity to answer that question in the form of a charter amendment on the November 4 election ballot. Amendment 146, as it's known by the grassroots organizers who collected enough signatures to include it on the ballot, offers voters a simple yes-or-no choice. With the darkening of an arrow using a standard-issue felt-tip pen, they can decide whether the Minneapolis Police Department should be placed back under the jurisdiction of the DCR.
The issue really boils down to logic, says DCR Executive Director Kenneth White. While he has no official position on the change, White says it "makes sense that all departments are treated consistently. I think it sends the wrong message when one city department is basically exempt from the Minneapolis civil-rights ordinance."
Message aside, the amendment's potential effects are not clear--especially when it comes to how it would affect the city's controversial Civilian Police Review Authority. For reasons that include its slow case turnover and the small number of cases ever fully investigated, the CPRA has been deemed a big dog with no teeth. Even if it finds in favor of a complainant, the authority can only make recommendations to the police chief as to how the situation should be handled. By contrast, the Civil Rights Commission--the judicial arm of the Department of Civil Rights--has the same powers as an administrative court. It is also able to assign monetary awards.
But if proponents of Amendment 146 believe that the DCR would take over most of the civilian-review board's caseload, they may be in for a surprise. For one thing, White notes, most of the CPRA's complaints involve police misconduct, and those cases do not necessarily qualify for discrimination charges. "In the event that there is a case of misconduct and discrimination, it would probably still go before civilian review," he says.
If history is any guide, the DCR would likely be more active handling complaints brought by those who've been denied jobs or fired due to alleged discrimination by the MPD. Employment discrimination accounted for 82 percent of the department's caseload from 1987 to 1995; just under 60 percent of those complaints were based on race. Complaints in the area of "public services," which would include police if the amendment passes, made up a mere 1 percent of the caseload. And, says DCR Community Relations Officer Alanna Tyler, 146 will do nothing to affect the employment disparity between white officers and officers of color; that, she says, is already being handled by the city's affirmative-action department.
But if the amendment may not do much to reduce the CPRA's caseload, it could affect its future nonetheless. Within the last year, the CPRA has come under fire by Minneapolis City Council members who claim the agency has not been effective and is ultimately undeserving of its six-figure budget. Critics proposed making the independent agency a branch of the City Coordinator Kathy O'Brien's office, and a "redesign task force" was appointed. Its members include White, O'Brien, Deputy City Attorney Michael Norton, and--remarkably--Police Federation attorney Jim Michels. The task force, whose public-comment period ended last week, will issue a report in mid-November.
The political catch is strikingly apparent: If passed, the measure will have a perceptible impact on only a fairly small number of complaints against police. Yet even the perception of a new agency scrutinizing the cops will help those wanting to disband the civilian-review authority. To what degree the DCR will be there to pick up the slack remains to be hashed out by politicians. In the meantime, says White, "Our position is to be visible. We want everybody to know exactly what it is we do, so in the event that they need our services, we're there."

When Radiohead announced last week that they would be releasing their seventh album, In Rainbows, via their official Web site, there was much fanfare and some honest-to-goodness debate about the future of the music industry, the validity of major labels and just how people consume music.
But in the days since that announcement, a whole lot of that fanfare has curdled, thanks to moves by the band and its management that some see as dishonest, distasteful and, well, downright un-Radiohead. The sentiment among many fans seems to have gone from admiration for the group's willingness to let the consumer decide how much to pay for the new album to anger over the low quality of the downloads — and dismay over the band's manager's statement that the you-choose-the-price downloads were just a promotional tool for the release of the physical CD.
The first bone of contention arose October 9 — the day before Rainbows became available for download — when fans who ordered the album (either in its download-only form or as a deluxe, $81 "discbox" version) received an e-mail from Radiohead's official online store, announcing that "the album [would] come as a 48.4 MB ZIP file containing 10 x 160 [kilobits per second], DRM-free MP3s."
To the casual music listener, the e-mail would be little more than an order confirmation (if not, you know, totally confusing), but to a segment of Radiohead's fanbase — aand to anyone who frequents file-sharing sites — it was a call to arms for two reasons.
First and foremost, all of Radiohead's previous albums were already available as MP3s encoded at 320 kilobits per second — the highest-possible compression rate in the format (though still not nearing the quality of a compact disc) — and most file-sharers scoff at anything less than 192 kbps. (MP3 files encoded with a lower bit rate will generally play back at a lower quality — something not readily apparent on tiny iPod earbuds but obvious enough on high-end home stereos.)
Second, most took issue with when Radiohead chose to announce that In Rainbows would be available at 160 kbps — after the majority of their fans had already paid for the download. To be fair, however, the band did give potential customers the power of choosing how much they wanted to pay to download the album. It could be had for as little as the transaction fee of 45 pence, or roughly 92 cents. There was also an option on the Web site to cancel orders; though, given the timing of the bit-rate announcement, fans had less than 24 hours to do so.
"Most promo MP3s come at a higher bit rate," wrote the author of U.K. blog Kids Pushing Kids. "Worst pound and pence I've ever spent."
"Radiohead has such delicate music that requires detail and depth of sound. … I for one CAN tell the difference between 160 and 192," responded one commenter. "[With] 160 you can't hear the finer details that make Radiohead so great. I have lost a bit of respect for Radiohead for this. I would never make people pay for 160. They may as well just stream stuff off MySpace."
No one seemed to understand why Radiohead decided to release Rainbows at 160 kpbs, though guitarist Jonny Greenwood told Rolling Stone, "We talked about it and we just wanted to make it a bit better than iTunes, which it is, so that's kind of good enough, really. It's never going to be CD-quality, because that's what a CD does."
That explanation didn't fly with some fans, who began speculating that the decision was made to keep the album off P2P sites or as a subtle way of making fans purchase either the discbox or the physical release of the album next year. The thought behind this theory was that if Radiohead fans were willing to split hairs over something as seemingly inconsequential as kilobits per second, then surely they wouldn't mind shelling out cash for the actual CD version of Rainbows.
And, as it turns out, the latter speculation seems to be true — especially after comments made by the band's managers, Chris Hufford and Bryce Edge, began to make their way around the Internet on Thursday (October 11) — which brings us to bone of contention number three.
In an interview with U.K. trade publication Music Week, Hufford and Bryce spoke at length about the downloadable version of Rainbows and how it plays into the larger plan of releasing a physical copy of the album in stores next year.
"In November we have to start with the mass-market plans and get them under way," Hufford told the magazine.
"If we didn't believe that when people hear the music they will want to buy the CD, then we wouldn't do what we are doing," Edge said.
To many, those comments sounded strangely, well, capitalistic and seemed to confirm that the lower-quality downloadable version of the album was little more than a promotional tool for the actual CD. (It didn't help that Edge is quoted as saying that "CDs are a fantastic bit of kit. … You can't listen to a Radiohead record on MP3 and hear the detail; it's impossible.") And if that was the case, it probably would've been nice if the band — or its management — had let fans know before they paid (or, you know, didn't pay) to download it. Attempts to contact Edge for clarification on his comments were unsuccessful at press time.
Is this entire backlash really just glorified nitpicking, or do members of Radiohead Nation have a legitimate reason to think they were duped? Well, the answer in both cases is probably "yes."
On one hand, the main reason so many are upset (the 160 kbps thing) seems rather inconsequential, especially given the fact that most people downloading Rainbows are going to be listening to it on their computers or a portable MP3 player. But there is a slightly noticeable difference between a 160 kbps-encoded song and, say, one encoded at 320 (it's heard most easily when played on a stereo). And Radiohead have yet to really offer up any plausible explanation for why they even chose to go the 160 route, especially since their entire catalog is already available at 320.
Furthermore, had the band announced the sound quality before people paid for the record — and if its managers had made the download sound like nothing more than a glorified demo a few days earlier — would 1.2 million people (as is being reported) still have made the decision to download it on the day it was released? Well, probably not. But really, who knows?
In the end, it's really all about a series of intangibles — kilobits per second, fan loyalty, etc. — that makes it difficult to tell if Radiohead fans are upset because of a whole bunch of miscommunication, or if there was some less-than-honest business being done by a band not exactly known for being cold and calculating. Then again, it's also entirely possible that Thom Yorke and company tried to do something different with Rainbows, and as is the case with being first, they might not have gotten it right.
"I paid zero, nothing, nada for the album," one fan wrote on an epic Stereogum thread about the album. "Sounds like Radiohead. But 160 kbps, that's not good enough. They are actually forcing us to buy the CD when it comes out."
"Do not buy the record then. Was that not the point? Don't go around complaining like they did you a disservice by making an album available," another countered. "As if you wouldn't have downloaded the leak. Would you complain if you got the album for free and actually listened to the music instead of focusing on 160 kbps? Maybe you'd actually remember what music appreciation was and be forced to buy the album based on that notion instead."

RACINE, Wis.—Wisconsin authorities are planning to discuss the arrest of an Illinois man in connection with the death of an Illinois teen whose body was found 17 years ago in a Racine County marsh.
The Racine County sheriff's office has scheduled a news conference Tuesday morning. Deputies arrested the 36-year-old suspect Saturday, and the sheriff said he'd release more details at the news conference.
Amber Creek was a 14-year-old from Palatine, Ill. She'd run away from a state-run juvenile shelter in Chicago in 1997, just hours after police in Rolling Meadows, Ill., returned her to the facility.
She was last seen getting into a man's car after leaving a motel party.
Her body was found two weeks later. She'd been beaten, sexually assaulted and suffocated with a plastic bag.

Town of Waukesha names new well monitor
Fischer, a town supervisor, to oversee town's water maintenance
The town of Waukesha is getting well prepared for the future.
At a town meeting on Thursday, May 22, Supervisor Brian Fischer was appointed to oversee the monitoring of the town of Waukesha's wells.
The first items on his to-do list are to determine the frequency and duration of the well monitoring.
"It appears there was a void from December 2010 to September 2012 when the wells weren't monitored," said Town Chairman John Marek.
The measure passed on a 4-1 vote, with Supervisor Larry Wolf casting the lone vote in opposition. Wolf, who expressed concerns about having Fischer oversee the wells, nominated himself to oversee the project; however, that motion failed on a 4-1 vote.
Fischer, who originally requested that the item be put on the agenda, said that his knowledge and insight of the wells' background and history put him in a good position to oversee the monitoring.
Also on Thursday, a motion was approved on a 4-1 vote to amend a town ordinance, which will require board members to be physically present at regular meetings, special meetings and committee meetings in the room in which the meeting is being held.
In the past, supervisors had the option to tune into meetings through Skype, a videoconferencing method. Marek had previously tried to get the same ordinance passed in June, but the motion was rejected at the time.
A change in an ordinance requires a vote from four of the five board members.

November 26, 2015
PIKEVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Voters in Pikeville are deciding for the second time in two years whether to allow liquor sales at restaurants and in package stores.
Voters defeated referendums on liquor-by-the-drink and package sales in Nov. 2010, but both lost by fewer than 20 votes.
Bledsoe County Administrator of Elections Lisa Wheeler told the Chattanooga Times Free Press the larger turnout for the Nov. 6 presidential election might mean a different outcome.
Wheeler said early voting has been "extremely busy." But she said voters are talking more about the presidential race than the liquor issue.
Other Sequatchie Valley cities have approved alcohol sales in recent years. In 2008, Dunlap and Kimball voters approved liquor by the drink. In Dunlap, residents also approved package store sales.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

How do you fill your potholes? Let us count the unconventional ways
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On March 30, 2010 @ 11:50 am In The Roadologist | No Comments
It's pothole patching season. But some people in North America aren't waiting for the road crews to take care of these road cavities, as I like to refer to them, so they are being filled in unconventional ways.
A March 29, Chicago Tribune article [1] pointed out these, uh, funny ways to fill them–from the DIY method, to filling them with lettuce and posting in the buff for a calendar to raise money.
According to the report, here are some of the more interesting ways potholes have been filled:
•A band of Canadian residents in the Leader, Saskatchewan, area protested a pockmarked strip of highway by posing nude inside some of the worst potholes and featuring the images in a 2007 calendar. The provincial government ultimately agreed to fix the crumbling roadway. And the calendar sold 3,000 copies at $20 each, according to the Canadian Press.
•A New York highway supervisor who filled potholes for a living began photographing them as art in the early 1990s. One example: A black-and-white print of a pothole filled with lettuce and serving utensils — with pepper, oil and vinegar beside it on the roadway — was featured in his 1993 show at a SoHo gallery, the Associated Press reported.
•About 50 fed-up neighbors on the West Side of Chicago grabbed shovels, purchased sacks of asphalt and paved potholes near their homes as a protest of poor street conditions in summer 1979. They sent a bill to then-Mayor Jane Byrne.
•Fast-food chicken chain KFC last year spent thousands of dollars to help fix potholes in Kansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio. In exchange, more than 1,500 patched potholes were marked "Re-Freshed by KFC" in temporary chalk, according to the Associated Press, the Chicago Tribune reported.

Using words to battle cyber losses
By Brian E Finch
Words matter when it comes to cyber security.
With security concerns dominating today's corporate planning from the board on down, the chief information officer (CIO) often comes in as a technical expert, providing an analysis of the threat environment and what measures should be taken to prevent successful cyber attacks. And of course, the CIO is there to explain what happened when the inevitable successful attack happens. However, CIOs can do much more — and better protect the corporate bottom line — with just a little thought and some assistance from their lawyers. By using some careful contract language developed in collaboration with counsel and contract administrators, CIOs can be in a prime position to shift liability away from their company in the event of a successful cyber attack.
Let's start with a fundamental premise: when entering into a contract, the terms and conditions of the contract should be clearly spelled out, with each party's responsibilities clearly defined. That's something every first-year law student is taught and every good business executive knows by instinct…

Alda Lucia
Update on Alda LuciaDoña Alda is a mother who continues to work as a seamstress so that she can keep paying the loans she received from AFODENIC and Kiva. The money was invested in home improvements.
Now she wants to build a room so that her daughter will be more comfortable. Alda needs to buy materials such as cement, iron, sand, blocks, and gravel. Making these improvements to her home will provide better conditions for her family.
Previous Loan DetailsAlda is a hard worker with entrepreneurial spirit and has been a fashion designer for more than 16 years. She has been the principal breadwinner for herself and her family Alda assures us that maintaining her own fashion design business has not been easy, but this loan and the ones before it, gi... More from Alda Lucia's previous loan »
Additional Information
About AFODENICThis loan is administered by AFODENIC, La Asociación para el Fomento al Desarrollo Nicaragua, a Kiva Field Partner based in Managua, Nicaragua. Founded in 1999, AFODENIC was created to promote the socio-economic and cultural development of sectors that are excluded from commercial banking. Integrating economic and human resources, AFODENIC offers affordable and adaptable financial services aimed at strengthening the family unit of their clients, who include students, producers, and micro- and small entrepreneurs from rural and urban areas. AFODENIC is a socially responsible institution engaged in society and making a positive impact on its professional partners and communities.
Supporting a borrower through AFODENIC contributes to the pursuit of innovation in mitigating poverty in Nicaragua. Visit AFODENIC's partner page for more information.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
About Housing Loans
Many poor families cannot afford housing that meets their needs. When you make a housing loan on Kiva, you give people access to flexible capital to obtain or improve their homes. Better housing means better health, sanitation, and even educational outcomes for children. A house can also be much more for entrepreneurs who run businesses out of their homes. In this way, housing and small business loans on Kiva share a common purpose: to alleviate poverty and enable families to enjoy more stable lives.

Re: Fighters that flourished in the face of adversity . . . . . . .
Floyd Mayweather has to be an obvious one
Against Manfredy, Mayweather had a broken hand and fought the last few rounds to see it out an still win the fight
Against Castillo, Mayweather had a torn rotator cuff, had a virus, and up against a top fighter in Castillo he came through to win a close decision, then took care of business in the rematch
Against the likes of Judah and Corley, he was visibly hurt, yet he maintained his composure, and went on to dominate both fights.
Finally against Mosley, rocked twice in the second round by a legitimate power puncher, Money May survived and went on to win every round

Photos: A look at Yu Darvish's 2012 Rangers starts
Photo: Jason Miller/Getty Images
Indians 4, Rangers 2 (May 6, 2012 in Cleveland): A glaring problem cost Yu Darvish and the Texas Rangers. An infield popup in the sun led to Darvish suffering his first major league loss. Jason Kipnis homered off Darvish, who struck out a career-high 11 over six innings. Ubaldo Jimenez (3-2) walked four in the first three innings but settled down and permitted only two hits. Johnny Damon's pop fell for a leadoff single in the third, leading to a three-run inning. "If the ball goes into the sun, what can you do?" Darvish said through an interpreter. Darvish gave up three earned runs and six hits, walking four. (AP)

text: I had a real live experience with someone's failure to distinguish between the two, right here on APUG. I posted an image of a solo male nude, with dramatic lighting, no signs of arousal anywhere in sight, and no sexual activity solo or otherwise transpiring in the image. Someone seeing it determined for themselves that "sodomy" was transpiring in this photo. It takes a rather fertile imagination to get from one flaccid penis to an act of penetration. But somehow this individual did.
