A building being renovated to be a church now has a lot of clean up after a car crashed into it Wednesday afternoon.
Police say 24-year-old Krystal Jones was "huffing," or inhaling toxic vapors from an aerosol can, when she crashed into a building in Kinston Wednesday. Jones crashed into what used to be the Family Pet Shop on West Vernon Avenue.
Jail records show Jones was still locked up under a $1,000 bond. Police say she's charged with careless and reckless driving, driving left of the center line and for inhaling toxic vapors. Officers say she can not be charged with DWI because it is an instant high and goes away quickly so there is no way to test for it.

An off-white pigment with complex reflective effects, mica is often used with transparent pigments to create mixed pigments with interference and pearlescent effects.
Mica is permanent and lightfast.
Although it is completely non-toxic and not bioreactive, fine particles may be irritating. This is of concern primarily for those exposed occupationally to dry mica powder. Breathing mica particles may cause lung fibrosis and pneumoconiosis.
Mica has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times.

October 6, 1959: One hundred and thirty prints of Gabor Peterdi will be on display at the Brooklyn Museum from October 27 through January 3. This retrospective exhibition of his work from 1934 to the present, dramatically illustrates the variety of subjects and techniques of the noted artist.
Earlier this month, Peterdi won the largest cash prize ever given in the history of print making. From more than 600 new works by living American artists, Peterdi's TRIUMPH OF WEED, was selected for the $2,500 prize. The award-winning etching, on view in the Brooklyn exhibition, is one of many highlights of the most comprehensive show of pictures by the artist who stated, "A work of art is a little universe - it must show development, have a beginning and an end, also it must be organized to function."
The last part of that statement might also describe the artist as well as his art. "Organized to function," Peterdi began his formal study at the Hungarian Academy at the age of 14. The following year he was given his first one-man show at the Ernst Museum, and shortly afterwards he won the coveted Prix de Rome for painting. Continuing his studies at the Accademia di belle Arti in Rome, he recalls, "to finance my fantastic consumption of art materials, I was forced into a rather adventurous life...I wrestled in a circus, I sold postcards and I sang in the streets."
That period of the many "fund-raising" occupations ended in 1931 when he went to Paris and met the renowned Stanley William Hayter, the man who revived modern engraving. Hayter's enthusiastic approach to printmaking so impressed Peterdi that he began his apprenticeship. He described those beginnings in his new book on printmaking, "my experience with the graphic arts started with engraving. I fell in love with it and I engraved for several years before I made my first etching. This self-imposed limitation had no other reason than the fascination to explore thoroughly this pure and powerful technique."
His early engravings were as influenced by the forebodings of war as the works of other sensitive artists in the 1930s when Picasso issued his most notable print, MINOTAUROMACHY and the devastating DREAM AND LIE OF FRANCO. Peterdi expressed the atmosphere of destruction in fantastic figures and symbols in his forceful BLACK BULL series.
In 1939 he came to America. It was a permanent move, noted by Miss Una E. Johnson, Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Brooklyn Museum, who said, "He is one of the more brilliant and dynamic of that talented group of young European artists who came to the United States shortly before the second World War."
When he became an American citizen, he joined the Army and served first as a cartographer and later helped to capture and return escaped Hungarian war criminals. His war experiences influenced his work. The disturbing memories are reflected in the haunting CRUCIFIXION and the sensitive STILL LIFE IN GERMANY. Later, in 1947, new themes entered his work, themes of creation and the elemental forces of nature are the subjects of in AWAKENING, ADAM AND EVE and TRIUMPH OF THE BEAST.
The impressive variety of themes and techniques in Peterdi's prints is defined by Miss Johnson, "...no artist can deny the forces of his lifetime. Peterdi's times of war and peace are interpreted in works of art by this powerful and creative craftsman, illustrating his conviction that art is a distillation of experience."
The range of Peterdi's experience is evidenced in his earliest engravings, RHINOCEROS and BATTLE CRY, etched with enormous skill and flashing force. THE FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL, MASSACRE OF THE INNOCENTS and THE BIG WEB are among those titles from the period when he used an electric drill to achieve a movement more insistent and less mechanical than the usual engraving tools. GERMINATION, SPAWNING and HERALDS OF AWAKENING are from the remarkable series of twenty four prints in which Peterdi expresses the complexity of our existence.
From his later works the fanciful patterns of ocean life THE PURPLE CLAW, THE SPONGE FISHER, WINGS OF THE OCEAN are representative of the collection in the exhibition. DECEMBER WIND, THE BIG TREE and RUSTY LEAVES are among the latest prints in which bold engraved lines are superimposed on etched lines of feathery landscapes. Finally, SELF-PORTRAIT, 1959, reveals the mature and deeply discerning artist who sums up the twenty five years of work represented in the exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, "Today I think I can say without much exaggeration that I have made prints with practically every known major process in graphic arts."

Great for my purposes of cleaning bottom of pool. Will take to ocean this weekend and perhaps give a try in the waves as well. Good fit since my foot size is mid in this 9 to 11 size. Price is excellent as well.

Great Fins
Love these fins. Have used them for several sessions now. The first set I ordered to my shoe size, but it was too big. The return department sent some options and the set one size (Euro) smaller was perfect. Great service.

Fit: Feels too big
Sizing is way off!
I wear a woman's 8 1-2 so I ordered the medium which should have fit. When I put the fin on and pushed my foot forward, there was at least 3/4" extra space in the heal. There is no way they would have stayed on in the water! Had to return.

exactly what I wanted
Needed to replace snorkel fins for the pool. Easily done and got some shampoo and conditioner too! Saved as there was no shipping charge, and the shampoo & condtioner were each $2.00 cheaper than the stores.

SABATTUS, Maine (AP) - Selectmen in a central Maine town have rejected a resident's proposal to require all homes to have firearms.
Sabattus selectmen on Tuesday voted down a proposal put forth by retired police officer David Marsters to have townspeople vote at June's town meeting on a proposed ordinance that would require every Sabattus head of household to own a gun.
Marsters said such a law would promote safety and deter criminal activity in town.
The Sun Journal reported that Police Chief Anthony Ward told selectmen he opposed the measure. He said he's a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, but also believes people "also have the right not to bear arms."
Marsters' proposal failed by a vote of 4-0, with two selectmen abstaining.

After nearly a decade since her last New York show and a multi-year hiatus from painting, San Francisco-based artist Clare Rojas officially returned to the scene last night (Sunday, November 11th), with the help of Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld, for an "untitled exhibition" of over thirty new works. The welcome was a warm one.
This catalogue marks Rojas' foray into abstractionism, abandoning narrative in favor of ambiguity, all while keeping the discipline of line seen in her previous works. Utilizing punches of color, hard geometry, and the purposeful use of negative space, Rojas explores the ideas of balance and harmony.
To further explore the vision presented in these 33 works, we asked Rojas about her break from painting, the catalyst for abstractionism in her work, and the connection between poetry and painting in her work.
Can you tell us about your hiatus?
Clare Rojas I took a break from painting a few years ago to focus on writing, more for myself to develop and organize all my considerations in my practice. I had a teacher in a writing course who had an assignment for us to remove all the nouns, and then remove the verbs. I realized then, like an epiphany, that I wanted to focus on the space that the narrative moved through, the spaces that were sometimes taken for granted. I came back to painting to practice an awareness of all that I didn't focus on in the past.
What inspired these 33 works?
CR For me, the process of making abstract imagery is about me trying to understand and nurture my natural disposition and attraction to certain colors, shapes, patterns, lines, compositions, and allowing that instinct to be enough.
Even though this exhibition marks a step away from narrative painting into abstractionism, you've accompanied the works with three poems. Why?
CR Whether I decide to share my writing or not, I'm always writing something. I felt these paintings were very quiet and still. I felt this way about these poems and thought they went well together. Poetry feels very quiet to me, and internal, and for me occupies a meditative space. I feel like when I paint I am in a meditative space, and the poetry and painting share a nice conversation with one another because of that.
Clare Rojas's "Untitled Exhibition" will run through December 15th at Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld, 5A East 78th Street

<translate> The Documentation Working Group currently maintains the following websites: </translate>
<translate> This entire site is automatically generated by the phpDocumentor package from an analysis of the Joomla! source code and making use of specially formatted comments embedded in the source code itself. It is an invaluable tool for all Joomla! developers. </translate>
<translate> The concept behind docs.joomla.org is that it will become the central resource for developing single-source modular documentation within the Joomla! project. The idea is that we write stuff once then re-use it in a somewhat analogous way to modern OOP software development. In the future we expect that other sites, such as help.joomla.org and developer.joomla.org will contain some, or even most, of their content derived from sources here. By building a central database of document "chunks" we gain maximum benefit from the efforts of a limited number of authors and we produce "agile" documents where a single change is rapidly propagated to all the derived documents affected. </translate>
<translate> Those interested in the techniques will find more information here. </translate>

Cameron Diaz and Jason Segal were doing a promo tour for "Sex Tape" and they were being interviewed by a show in Austrailia when she cut the interview short. The host brought up Drew Barrymore's battle with drugs and considering that's Cam's BFF, she wasn't amused. But it got worse because he immediately mentioned her typically private relationship with her boyfriend Benji Madden. Cameron said, "We're having to go now. Sorry, they're wrapping us up." And that was the end of the interview.
If Robin Thicke's begging ever works, and he actually gets back together with Paula Patton, they'll be living somewhere new because their Bel Air home is officially on the market. Neither Paula or Robin has officially moved out of the 2-story home, but they haven't slept under the same roof since separating in February.
During an episode of his YouTube show, Snoop Dogg tells guest Jimmy Kimmel that he smoked pot in a White House bathroom. He was there for a visit and asked to use the restroom and he says they asked if it was number one or number two. He claimed it was a number two, but that he needed to light a candle. Watch what he says he really did...
The beard that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson wears in the upcoming "Hercules" movie wasn't his own, obviously. But it was real hair. Just not human hair. It was yak hair. Like the animal, yak. And if the thought of gluing yak hair to your face grosses you out, just wait until we get more specific. Yesterday on "Live with Kelly and Michael", The Rock said he asked his beard guy what kind of hair it was, and he told him it was yak. But when he asked what part of the yak it came from, the guy told him the testicles. Yes, The Rock had yak pubes glued to his face during the making of this movie. Why the pubes? Because they're the softest hairs on the yak. Eww!!
Lana Del Rey has a song called "F***ed My Way Up to the Top" but it's not exactly autobiographical. In an interview she says, "You know, I have slept with a lot of guys in the industry, but none of them helped me get my record deals. Which is annoying."

High on Fire -- Montreal, Quebec -- November 27th, 2012
Venue: La Tulipe
Opening bands: Lo-Pan, Primate
This was my 13th show in about a month. Let's say I feel pretty exhausted by this and school. Anyway, it was an excellent night, just like I expected. The opener was a bunch of fat dudes from Colombus called Lo-Pan. I had never heard of them before this, but they weren't bad. Musically, they sounded like a groove-oriented mix between Karma to Burn and Soundgarden. They had some pretty heavy/greasy guitar and bass tones, but their singer seemed like he was out of place. He had some kind of clean, epic/emotional singing reminiscent of the vocals in bands like Five Finger Death Punch (I'm not responsible for any nausea induced, sorry). I couldn't stop focusing on his voice, and weight. This guy was probably fatter than anyone in our whole province. Stupid comments aside, Lo-Pan were a good opener, but nothing I'm going to listen to seriously at home.
The show really began for me when the new hardcore punk supergroup Primate, featuring Kevin from Brutal Truth and Bill from Mastodon among others, hit the stage. They gave an extremely intense performance, grinding from song to song without any breaks. They had great energy on stage, especially Bill, who kept jumping and lifting his guitar to the sky. It was cool to see him play somthing less sophisticated than his main band and just have fun. Thus, his leads were tasty. Kevin Sharp's voice was better than ever and well complemented by the bassist's shouts. Their set was 25 minutes of pure punk crazyness executed perfectly. I believe they played the whole Draw Back a Stump EP out of order.
The final supporting band was the ever-touring Goatwhore. You guys probably know what to expect when going to see one of their shows, and last night's one sticked to the rule. The leathered and spiked band was super tight and heavy, and Ben Falgoust's performance as a vocalist and as a frontman was impeccable. This guy knows how to get a crowd moving. Getting the hipster audience of yesterday's show to mosh was an exploit for an non-headlining band, but he finally managed to do it during "Judgement of the Bleeding Crown" and their usual closer "Apocalyptic Havoc". Their setlist was focused on their latest offering, Blood for the Master, which was no problem to me, since I've enjoyed that record a lot. The only thing that sucked about their set is that an idiot douchebag in a Jagermeister shirt kept shoving and falling on random people in the crowd. He was probably drunk and/or high on something, but he surely didn't look like he was into any of the bands. After Goatwhore finished playing, he kept yelling at people, looking for a fight, and he finally got kicked out by security. Though he was funny, he brought a wierd, uncomfortable ambiance in the room and I was relieved when he went away.
Now was the time for the band I had wanted to see for a long time. I had actually seen them at Heavy MTL 2010, but the 30 minutes set in front of a clueless crowd had left me unsatisfied. It was about time they headlined here. After a pretty long pause, the Oakland trio quickly hit the stage and launched into the opening track of their new (and fucking great) record, "Serums of Liao", which was immediately followed by "Frost Hammer" from the previous one. The lightings brought a mystic, foggy look to the stage, that was perfect for High on Fire's sound. Des Kensel looked like he had some kind of blueish aura around him while he pounded the fuck out of his drumkit. Matt's voice was excellent, a lot better than in 2010. However, it felt like something was missing. Indeed, his pedals were fucking up and he couldn't get any effects. The techs managed to fix them in time for the mighty dirge that is "10,000 Years", which stepped up the game and really started the set for me. God, his tone was heavy and distorted like I've rarely heard before. It was loud as hell too. One of my friends had forgotten his earplugs and he regretted it bitterly. Although it was loud, the sound was flawless; it was one of those shows where you could wear earplugs and still hear everything clearly, without any major impact loss. Going back to Matt, he looked he was pissed off during the whole set. Quitting alcohol certainly improved his voice and tightness, but not his mood. I also noticed he kept spitting and blowing his nose; he must have caught a pretty bad cold due to the temperature here. Pretty different from California. I also have one right now, so I feel for him. Nevertheless, being sick didn't keep him from delivering one of the best performances of the year. Aside from the third song, like I mentionned before, my highlights were headbanging to "Devilution", moshing to "Rumors of War" and having my bones and brain crushed by "Madness of an Architect". The crowd was responsive, though very static up until "Rumors of War" and "Snakes for the Divine", which got the pits going. It was a beautiful night and everybody seemed to have a blast. I know I had one.

8/6 - SubRosa
Hello all, been a LONG time reader of the board and here is my first official post, finally (please be gentle ). None more fitting than a review of what I feel was the BEST lineup for 2012!!!
My buddy and I drove from Ottawa to see this show and got to the venue just as doors were opening. Realizing that the show didnt start for an hour, we got some grub and came back a half hour later where we walked in to check out merch and see what was goin on and what the set times were. Met up with Shayne from Primate and had a good talk with him about the band past, present and their future. Really cool guy to chat with! Bill came over shortly thereafter and we talked for a bit too. This was the 2nd time I've met Bill (once with Mastodon this summer) another really down to Earth guy and easy to chat with.
Shortly after, Lo-Pan began their 30 minute set and although I did not know any of their music prior to tonight, they definitely started the night off right! Very similar sound to old Kyuss and Fu Manchu (which I have been a fan of for years) made these guys instantly enjoyable! Due to not knowing their music or songs prior, unfortunately no setlist. But for those who like that style of music, they are DEF worth checking out! And yeah, their lead singer is HUGE!
Next up was Primate. For those who don't know, some known names in the band include Bill Kelliher from Mastodon and the legendary Kevin Sharp from Brutal Truth! I have been a BT fan for many years all the way back to the Extreme Conditions days also a Mastodon fan since Leviathan so having checked these guys out prior to the show, I knew I was in for a great time seeing them finally! They are a great mixture of punk, grind, Black Flag influences and you can even hear a little Mastodon in there as well. Overall, they put on a spectacular performance! especially in just 30 mins. Shayne mentioned to me that they had planned to try and come up to Canada earlier but only really had the chance on this tour. They were quite happy and will definitely return again! Again, due to not knowing all of their songs or titles, setlist is not completely available and out of order. But highlights of the night were:
Draw Back a Stump
Wasted Youth
Global Division
March of the Curmudgeon
Next up was the almighty Goatwhore! I have been a fan of theirs now for a few years with their mixture of thrash and black metal. Their sound is def an evil one Seen them twice in Ottawa and this was the 2nd time seeing them in Mtl. These guys are one of the best live acts I have seen over the years. Ben is an amazing frontman and really gives it his all every performance I have seen. Last night was no exception either. Zack is a beast on the drums! Sammy was spot on last night, only exception being that his guitar needed to be turned up a little as you could notice that his chugs were somewhat lacking as you would hear on an album and as I have heard live from him in the past. Otherwise, for 45 mins they were frickin fantastic!! I will admit that I was a little disappointed with the crowd as it took a while for them to get into it. Alot of headbanging but little action. But once the pits started to open up, the band fed off of it and played with even more aggression! Spoke with Sammy and Ben a bit after the show. They mentioned that they love coming up to Canada and are intending on doing a headline tour sometime hopefully in the spring and go across the country. But they wanna put together a really good lineup when they do. Setlist was pretty much the same as they played at Heavy MTL this year and is 99.9% accurate however a little out of order:
Collapse in Eternal Worth
When Steel and Bone Meet
Parasitic Scriptures of the Sacred Word
Beyond the Spell of Discontent
In Deathless Tradition
Alchemy of the Black Sun Cult
Judgement of the Bleeding Crown
Embodiment of This Bitter Chaos
Sky Inferno
An End to Nothing
To Mourn and Forever Wander Through Forgotten Doorways
Apocalyptic Havoc
Lastly was the headliner High on Fire. I have seen them once before at Heavy MTL 2010 and was really looking forward to seeing them again for the first time in a couple years. For 75 mins, they completely exceeded my expectations and then some! Matt had a little bit of technical issues with his pedals but once they fixed them up, he was spot on all night! Des pounded away on his kit only the way he can! LOUD and POWERFUL! Jeff was in the dark for the most part but he was not to be outdone. His bass sound filled the room and shook our insides! I agree with Void Flame that Matt seemed pissed a bit throughout the set, could be the tech issues or the lack of alcohol too but he def sounded great musically and vocally! The crowd response at the beginning was the same as Goatwhore. It took them a while to really get into it and I must say, I have seen countless shows over the years in Montreal and this is never the case. Maybe it was the Tues night effect. But, at the end of the night the crowd were left wanting more! Lots of stomping and chanting! At one point some guy got on stage to engage and urge the crowd to get an encore...he even walked backstage to try and entice the band to come out for one more, but alas to no avail. Setlist was the same as it has been all tour.

–Hubert J. Farnsworth
Hubert J. Farnsworth (born April 9, 2841), better known as Professor Farnsworth or the Professor, is the proprietor of the Planet Express delivery service. Professor Farnsworth is pushing the limits of even the 31st century at the old agе of 173.
Professor Farnsworth is one of six living relatives of Fry, together with his own clone, Cubert, as well as his only son by means of his sexual relations with Mom while he worked for her, Igner, Farnsworth has a brother named Floyd, also Farnsworth's parents are still alive. He is Fry's ×30 nephew. Though never stated, he is therefore logically the descendant of Fry's only sibling, his brother Yancy Fry, Jr. However, since it is revealed that Fry is his own, and therеfore Yancy's, grandfather due to his time-traveling exploits, Professor Farnsworth is logically in fact Fry's direct descendant via his brother/grandson Yancy. So the six include: himself, Cubert, Igner, Floyd, Velma and Ned Farnsworth.
Professor Farnsworth is a senile, deranged, and unpredictable old man who is both a maniac and a genius who was born in prison as mentioned in "Overclockwise". He has a gift and passion for the creation of Doomsday Devices and Atomic Supermen, and is a danger to himself, his employees, and the universe in general. He has put at least one parallel universe in peril with his inventions, and, for some reason, his eyes are never seen. There are only two episodes in which he has ever taken his glasses off. In the episode "Mother's Day", he is shown from the side when he does it, and Mom comments "Your eyes were always such a beautiful color of... milky white." (still not giving away the specific color of his eyes). In the Episode "Amazon Women in the Mood", he removes his glasses after Fry mistakenly states that Zoidberg is dead (though the "corpse" is only Zoidberg's empty shell) but promptly covers his eyes with his hand in order to sob.
When he was a teenager he was put in a mental institute but got out 25 years later. Professor Farnsworth formerly worked for Mom's Friendly Robot Company and taught at Mars University; he currently spends the majority of his time inventing ridiculous devices and coming up with equally ridiculous and suicidal missions for his crew members.
Farnsworth's greatest ability is his exceptional intelligence; however, it is hampered by his senility. However he does have more unusual "abilities": Being part of Fry's bloodline, since Fry's existence is cyclical, Farnsworth himself is an anomaly in the universe. Also, ever since "The Late Philip J. Fry", Farnsworth has become an out-of-universe observer. It is unknown how this may manifest itself in the future, but logically nothing that happens as a result of time travel in the current universe can affect him, since he is not a part of this universe.
Professor Farnsworth is characterized by his catch-phrase "Good news, everyone!" frequently followed by very bad news; often one of his semi-suicidal missions. Another is his exclamation of surprise, "Sweet Zombie Jesus!", which is noted to be clumsily censored on some networks. Also, though not a catchphrase in general, he often says "Wha?" when unaware of the situation, or when someone questions a statement he has just made, showing his senility. Also, he often completely contradicts himself; he told his crew they were to gather "ordinary honey. Just ordinary honey." When one of his crew asked about the mission, he suddenly turned serious and said "This is no ordinary honey!" Another catchphrase he uses is "...Wernstrom!", which he says whenever he sees Professor Wernstrom his scientific rival and "Well I am already in my pajamas....."
Professor Farnsworth's amazingly advanced age manifests itself in senility and general physical decrepitude. While generally friendly, he is sometimes prone to sudden fits of bitter contempt for random things. The Professor is also known for his inclination toward exhibitionism and does not hesitate to appear naked in public, stating that, like pine trees and poodles, the "primitive notions of modesty" of the 20th century are long gone. He also mentions that, being 160-years-old, he is old enough to rent and purchase "ultra-porn". Beyond that, the professor's occasional brief verbal digressions about his own life imply a somewhat colorful sexual past, which he often concludes with a nostalgic "Ah, yes...". He also mentions in Bender's Game that people sometimes call him "The Catman" for his ability to land perfectly on his feet after falling from a high balcony.
Professor Farnsworth is the oldest human being living on earth (excluding those who have been cryogenically frozen or are kept alive as heads in jars) a title he acquired upon turning 160. At this age, all humans are collected by the Sunset Squad Robots and sent to live out the rest of their days in isolation aboard the gigantic Near Death Star. After his crew rescues him, Farnsworth returns to Planet Express to resume the life he originally had before being removed by the Sunset Robot Squad. After swimming in the Fountain of Aging, reports that he is "Even older! Huzzahhh!".
Although being in his 160's, in Leela's dreamworld in the episode "The Sting", the Professor became quite shocked when Fry, who was technically 1025-years-old after being frozen for a millennium, accidentally died, remarking, "This makes me the oldest living member of my family!" and burst into tears at this realization.
Relationship with his crew
Professor Farnsworth rarely worries about the safety of the crew, viewing them as a means to an end. After remarking that he was looking for a new crew for his intergalactic space ship, he was asked "what happened to your old crew?" His response was "Oh, those poor sons of b...but that's not important! What is important is that I need a new crew!" When Fry, Bender and Leela state that they have no career chips, he produces them from a bag labeled "Contents of Space Wasp's Stomach". He quite frequently sends them on dangerous missions even when he has the foreknowledge that they will probably not make it back alive. His missions are typically those other delivery companies won't take, such as delivering subpoenas to mob-controlled worlds or casual deliveries to virus-infested planets. Even the commercial that he had produced for his company makes several remarks to this effect, including, "When other companies aren't crazy or foolhardy enough..." and "our crew is expendable, your package isn't", the former showing the crewman running through a minefield and the latter a crewman being dragged away by a giant bird. When the crew and his ship are sent off to war, he immediately tries to hire another crew. When his old crew returns, he is clearly surprised they survived, remarking, "Oh God you're alive! I mean, thank God you're alive," then remarks to the applicants, "Come back in three days. A week at the most" indicating just how low he thinks their chances of survival are. When the crew was sent to retrieve space honey they found the remains of the previous Planet Express ship buried in the hive's honey. Even his family relationship to Fry doesn't do much, if anything, to reduce his ardor for particularly difficult and deadly delivery missions. His relationship is closest to Zoidberg who he values a good long time friend although Farnsworth is a speciesist. He employed Zoidberg because Farnsworth once saved his life from a yeti and at this time, Farnsworth was infected with Yetiism, which he mistook for hypermalaria. He made Zoidberg promise to mercy kill Farnsworth so he would not die of it and therefore Zoidberg was employed by Farnsworth for the sole purpose of carrying out this task. This promise was kept a secret and many lies and cover ups were made until the rest of the crew found out the truth.
Relationship with Mom
While at MomCorp, he fell in love with the CEO, Mom. Igner was born of this relationship. Farnsworth left Mom and MomCorp when she decided to weaponize his Q. T. McWhiskers toy, an anthropomorphic cat toy that shot rainbows from its eyes.
He and Mom have had continued relations since this time. In a plot to retrieve the Universal Robot Controller from Mom's bra, the Professor brings flowers to Mom's cabin in The Bronx where their love is rekindled ending in a "whirlwind of hot, dry sex". After learning of the plot Mom subsequently dumps him.
Though knowledgeable and prodigious inventor, Professor Farnsworth is also plagued by intermittent senility. In contrast to his endearingly inept persona, and while he's generally friendly mild-mannered, he has several negative character traits. These include arrogance, spitefulness, and a general disregard towards his employees and, at times, a tendency towards speciesism, especially towards Cygnoids. Being a scientist, Farnsworth is an active defender of scientific progress and education, and is prone to be aggressive towards anyone who express esoteric or religious viewpoints that contradicts his own opinion, as evident in "The Thief of Baghead" when he angrily claimed that life-force isn't the same as an ethereal soul (though he seems to not known the difference between one another, if any), and in "A Clockwork Origin", Farnsworth claimed that anyone that believes in creaturism over evolution to be ignorant, and went as far as to leave Earth when they refused to listen and see his theories and archaeological evidences. Despite this, Farnsworth is far from being Atheist. Rather, his spiritual faith seems to change from episode to episode, but (and peharps due to it) is generally a liberal one. In "The Farnsworth Parabox", when one of his experiments goes awry and nearly killed him, he start to desperately scream for help and shouts to several deities of different religions to do so, at one time asking Satan to save him because he owes him one. In Hell Is Other Robots, Farnsworth claimed that Vodoo and Oprahism are mainstream religions and expresses interest in them. In "Möbius Dick", when he comes to the conclusion that his crew has died on their mission, he decided to pray to Isis.
Also, Farnsworth has shown tendencies for nudism in "Near-Death Wish" when the Professor yells at his parents, then proceeds to strip and run through the city naked. This is expanded on in Anthology of Interest 1 by Hermes: "Let's see, Citation for public nudity, Conspiracy to commit public nudity..."

Age: 31
Place of birth: Liverpool
Place of current residence: London
What inspired you to pursue fashion?
Making a living. Finding a job where I make my own hours. Being my own boss. Early fascination with music videos and magazines. It was more a process of eliminating what I didn't want to do. Both my parents were self-employed, I think that has an effect—never seeing them take orders from anyone. I loved pop videos when I was a kid: Björk and Neneh Cherry, who both wore stuff by Margiela and worked with people like Mondino. I liked how those things linked together.
How have you witnessed social media and digital communication alter the way the fashion industry works? With Twitter and Facebook you have much more interaction with your customer, although it can get a bit much sometimes and it feels like you can't get away from it. I think there will continue to be a rise in designers selling directly online from their own stores. It's something we plan to do next year.
How do you define success for a young designer today?
I'm not sure. I've only done it now, in this time. I think in the '90s it was mostly about press and drama, whereas London has now become more about sales and being grown-up. My idea of success is a business that works, gives me a certain income, and means that for four weeks a year I can holiday in France and not have to take one call or e-mail about work.
What inspired your collection for Spring?
The desire to work with more color. British folk rituals. Spoiled brat–gap year students.
Give us a hint as to what's inspiring your next (Fall) collection.
My slightly nervous, OCD mood. New ways of working. Neatness.

the best reviews
their picks
what to buy
The best Internet security software typically includes three essential components -- antivirus, anti-spyware and a firewall -- along with optional features, such as a spam filter and parental controls. Some companies bundle additional components as well, including identity theft prevention, anti-phishing software and online backup. Smartphones are increasingly vulnerable to malware too, and we cover both PC and smartphone Internet security software in this report, as well as some double-duty products that protect both PCs and mobile devices.
In naming the best Internet security suites, we look first to performance, but also ease of use and features. Of course, the most important feature of any Internet security software is its antivirus protection (and if that's all you are interested in, we review stand-alone antivirus software programs in their own report).
Among all-in-one security suites, we see terrific feedback for Bitdefender Total Security 2015 (Est. $60 for 3 PCs). It scores well in testing and earns raves from professional reviewers including Editors' Choice selections at PCMag.com and Tom's Guide. User reviews are more mixed, but that's not an unusual situation with most Internet security software, especially commercial suites. Bitdefender earns top scores in most independent lab tests, including a 100 percent detection rate against both new and established malware by AV-Test.org.
Bit Defender offers comprehensive protection. "It pulls together almost every imaginable security feature in one package, and they all work well," says PCMag.com's Neil J. Rubenking. Those features include antivirus, anti-phishing, anti-spyware, a software firewall, parental controls, PC tune up and optimizer functions, file encryption, anti-theft, online backup and more. New this year is a feature that monitors usage to change your profile -- say for movie watching or game playing -- to keep spurious warnings and intrusions to a minimum. It's supposed to work automatically, but Sarah Jacobsson Purewal at PC World reports that the performance of that feature was inconsistent.
If everyone only used PCs, we might be done at this point, but they don't, and we aren't. Mobile devices are increasingly vulnerable to malware attacks, and are more vulnerable to other issues -- such as being stolen or lost -- than PCs or laptops. Bitdefender Mobile Security (Est. $15 per year per device) scores terrifically in lab testing, and packs a lots of mobile goodies into the package. Those include a Privacy Advisor that tracks how your apps use your personal information and anti-theft features that will locate your device, or lock it and wipe the data on it. It can also trigger alerts and alarms on your Android smartwatch if it and your smartphone are out of range of each other. You can also buy Bitdefender Mobile Security and Bitdefender Total Security 2015, along with Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac ($60 for 3 Macs), as Bitdefender Total Security Multi-Device for $100 per year for up to 5 devices, or $130 per year for up to 10.
If you have lots of computers to protect, or are looking for an-all-in-one security software solution for PCs, Macs and mobile devices, Norton Security with Backup (Est. $60 for 10 devices) is an excellent choice as well. Norton Security is Symantec's sole antivirus/Internet-security software product starting in 2015. It pulls the features and functions of the entire former Norton line, including Norton Antivirus, Norton 360, Norton Mobile Security, Norton Internet Security for Mac, and more into one package. Norton Security with Backup includes protection for any combination of 10 PCs, Macs or mobile devices (Android and iOS, including the iPhone and iPad). It also a utility to automatically back up files to either a cloud service (25 GB of online backup from Symantec is part of the deal) or an external drive. If you have a lot of devices to protect, that makes Norton Security with Backup one of the most economical commercial suites available. If you don't have as many devices to protect, and don't care about the backup feature, you can save a few dollars by opting for the base version of Norton Security (Est. $55 per year for up to 5 devices).
Whichever version you opt for, protection is first rate. Norton Security is an Editors' Choice at PCMag.com, and is also its pick as the best cross-platform multi-device security suite. AV-Test.org puts Norton Security at the top of the pile in its testing of both performance and usability. Norton products were once reviled as horrific resource hogs, but those days are now ancient history. The user interface has been greatly simplified over the years. One caveat is that testing of previous versions revealed good but not quite as bulletproof malware protection for Macs and mobile devices (the latest version is yet to be tested on those platforms). User feedback at sites like Amazon.com and Google Play is relatively strong. The biggest negative that reviewers find is that the most robust parental control features require the separate purchase of Norton Family Premier (Est. $50 per year).
What about free Internet security software? Try as we might, we could not find a totally free security suite for PC users that passes muster. Testing reveals protection that lags behind the best commercial Internet security software, and we see lots of reports of usability issues. However, if your main interest is in a solid antivirus product -- and that's what most concerns most users -- we did find some solid antivirus solutions that will do a terrific job of protecting your computer and not cost you one cent. For more on those, see our report on antivirus software.
That said, if you are only looking for the best free Internet security software to protect your mobile device, there are some suites worth considering. Chief among them is Avira Free Antivirus Security (Free). Testing by AV-Test.org and AV-Comparatives.org show that protection is solid. Feedback at Google Play is also strong. In addition to antivirus, Avira Free Antivirus Security can track your phone's location, and allows you to lock or wipe it if stolen. It can also block calls and contacts, and a new Identity Safeguard feature guards against hacked emails -- either yours or anyone on your contact list. Avira is available for both Android and iOS, and goes by different names in each platform's app store. For Android, it's called Avira Antivirus Security in Google Play. In iTunes, it's identified as Avira Mobile Security.
Avast! Free Mobile Security (called Avast! Mobile Security & Antivirus on Google Play) is another free Internet security suite for mobile devices. It also scores well in lab testing, is an Editors' Choice selection at Tom's Guide and receives solid user reviews at Google Play. However, Avast! Free Mobile Security is only available for Android devices.
Most independent test labs only evaluate antivirus software or the antivirus component of security suites. AV-Test.org is particularly helpful because it also rates factors such as usability and a suite's impact on a computer's performance. Technology websites generally defer to these labs when it comes to rating effectiveness, but PCMag.com conducts its own testing as well. Others, such as Tom's Guide and PC World focus their reviews on usability factors. User reviews at sites such as Google Play and Amazon.com are useful for evaluating how Internet security suites perform in the real world.

Black Lung Disease
Topic Overview
What is black lung disease?
Black lung disease is a common name for any lung disease that develops from inhaling coal dust. This name comes from the fact that those with the disease have lungs that look black instead of pink. Medically, it is a type of pneumoconiosis called coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP). There are two forms: simple CWP and complicated CWP, which also involves progressive massive fibrosis (PMF).
The inhalation and accumulation of coal dust into the lungs increases the risk of developing chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
What causes coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP)?
The inhalation and accumulation of coal dust causes coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP). This stems from working in a coal mine, coal trimming (loading and stowing coal for storage), mining or milling graphite, and manufacturing carbon electrodes (used in certain types of large furnaces) and carbon black (a compound used in many items, such as tires and other rubber goods). Because CWP is a reaction to accumulated dust in the lungs, it may appear and get worse during your exposure to the dust or after your exposure has ceased.
The severity of CWP depends on the type of coal dust, how much dust was in the air, and how long you have been exposed to it.
Is CWP the same thing as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)?
No. Although CWP may share many of the symptoms of emphysema and/or chronic bronchitis (which are also known as COPD), CWP is not COPD and is not treated like COPD.
What is the course of CWP?
CWP starts with the inhalation and accumulation of coal dust in the lungs. For many, there are no symptoms or noticeable effect on quality of life. There may be a cough and sputum (mucus) from inhalation of coal dust, but this may be more a matter of dust-induced bronchitis. As CWP progresses and is complicated by PMF, a cough and shortness of breath develop, along with sputum and moderate to severe airway obstruction. Quality of life decreases. Complications of CWP include cor pulmonale.
Smoking does not increase the prevalence of CWP, nor does it affect the development of CWP. But it may add to lung damage and contribute to the development of COPD. Coal workers who smoke are at much greater risk of developing COPD than nonsmoking coal workers.
How does CWP affect your lungs?
When coal dust accumulates in the lungs, a coal macule may form. A coal macule is a combination of coal dust and macrophages. As the disease progresses, macules can develop into a coal nodule, an abnormality of the lung tissue. In time, a type of emphysema and fibrosis may develop.
Lung nodules wider than 1 cm (0.4 in.) have been accepted as evidence of progressive massive fibrosis (PMF), although some organizations say a minimum width of 2 cm (0.8 in.) is necessary. Nodules may grow to a large size and hinder or stop the airflow in the lungs' airways.
How is CWP diagnosed?
CWP is diagnosed through an occupational history and chest X-rays. Lung function tests may be used to determine how badly the lungs are damaged.
Occupational history is very important to the diagnosis of CWP—if a person has not been exposed to coal dust, he or she cannot have CWP. The occupational history should include not only recent and past full-time employment, but also summer jobs, student jobs, military history, and short-term jobs.
The diagnosis of CWP has legal public health implications, since some states require that all cases be reported.
Can CWP be prevented?
CWP can be prevented by controlling dust and having good ventilation in the workplace.
How is it treated?
There is no proven effective treatment for CWP, although complications can be treated.
There are several U.S. laws regarding CWP and its treatment, and the government may help pay for treatment. But to be eligible, you must be totally and permanently disabled by this disease. Most miners aren't eligible for federal black lung benefits. For information on organizations dealing with mining and black lung disease, see the Other Places to Get Help section of this topic.

Celestron Power Tank 17...How Reliable?
Posted 04 May 2009 - 10:32 AM
Posted 04 May 2009 - 10:44 AM
I know the one I have had for a couple of years ( Senco ) just died on me so I am now in the process of building my own, the plans are on the CN website by the way.
The big plus I can see with building my own is that I can have as many of the cigarette plugs as I want, as long as I don't draw anymore power than the battery is designed to for.
I know others will add in the choices plus pro's and con's of different units.
Good luck
Posted 04 May 2009 - 10:53 AM
Just one data point.
Clear skies,
Posted 04 May 2009 - 12:05 PM
Posted 04 May 2009 - 01:54 PM
Some precautionary words are in order. First, the "wall wart" charger works at about .8 amps. That means that, God Forbid, you took the tank way down, you are looking at 20 hours or more to recharge. Do NOT believe the lights on the side of the unit during recharge; at least, do not believe them literally. The "Ready" light will come on and make you think it is fully charged. Nope. It only means it has enough juice to squeeze out 12V. But a 12V battery such as the one used for this purpose should be well over 13V at full charge. You MUST let this one go until the "Charging" light goes out as well. The good news is that the wall wart pushes a nominal 15V, which is good enough to fully charge the unit. Some others only provide a 12V output wall wart, which is not enough oomph to fully charge it and these batteries WILL fail if they are not kept as close to fully charged as possible when not in use. And more than about 50% draw down very often will kill the batteries as well, unless they are deep dishcarge marine type batteries.
Finally, the wall warts have a bad reputation as well since they seem to die early, and don't have overcharge protection when they work. I use a battery defender type unit, which does a quick charge at 3 amps, then tops it off at 13.5V, then holds the full charge at 0 amps to protect the system. If you use this type of charging/maintenance device, do not use the 12V input point; connect directly to the starter cables. This will charge the battery quickly and maintain the charge safely.
Posted 04 May 2009 - 06:36 PM
You MUST let this one go until the "Charging" light goes out as well.
However many owners reported that the red/Charging light never goes out. I have never seen it going out on my 7Ah either no matter how many days I was charging.
Posted 04 May 2009 - 06:38 PM
I need a portable power source for my new CGEM and seem to reading a number of negative comments on this portable power source. Can someone clue me in...Thank You!
Come si, come sa. Some folks have had good luck with it. Some have not. Bottom line? Why pay more for one that says "Celestron" (or Orion, or whatever) on it when you can trot down to Walmart and get one with more capacity which is possibly more reliable for the same money or LESS?

Maybe this is due to the poor reliability in the wall chargers? There have been many reports in the Equipment forum over the years on this same topic, and the wall chargers that come with them seem to be really a problem with some lasting less than four or five uses.
Mine has performed very well over the years, with about four or five heavy uses per month for three years. But the more these threads pop up, the luckier I feel!
Uncle Rod is right. There are wiser choices out there. Check the Equipment forum going back a year or two; the topic of power supplies in general and the Power Tanks in particular is a recurring theme, with a lot of great alternatives. Wish I knew then what I know now!
Posted 05 May 2009 - 01:26 PM
I'm one of the folks that had issues relatively quickly with two separate units. While I'm well aware that some people have had years of use out of their units with no issues, it seems just as many have had problems. The chance you take is having to ship it to California if you have an issue. Depending where you live, the cost of shipping can easily be as much as the 17 aH Husky unit that Home Depot sells. For the same price as the astronomy branded unit, you can get a 22 aH version from Sears with more features and a built in trickle charger. To me, it just makes more sense to shop around town a little. You'll probably end up with a less expensive unit or one with more features (or both). And if there's a problem, you don't have to pay for shipping to return it.
Posted 05 May 2009 - 01:55 PM
I was told by a member of CN that the best way to ensure longevity is to always charge it after each use, but not to exceed more than 12 hours.
Posted 05 May 2009 - 02:18 PM
So the best way to ensure longevity is to buy a battery with enough capacity so that you don't have to discharge it too deeply, keep it charged whenever it is not in use, and not overcharge it.
How deeply a battery can be discharged without excessive damage depends on the type of lead electrodes it has. Deep cycle batteries have dense, solid lead electrodes, while automobile batteries have spongey lead electrodes. Marine batteries and other types that are usually labelled "deep cycle" are actually hybrids, having denser electrodes than automobile batteries but not solid lead electrodes. The trade off for solid lead electrodes is obviously more weight, and also less instantaneous current capacity. Spongey lead electrodes like the ones used in automobile batteries can supply very large amounts of current for short periods, but are easily damaged by deep discharge.
In order to keep a battery fully charged while not in use but avoid overcharging, the "float charger" is the best choice. Instead of constantly feeding current into the battery (as happens with some brute force chargers and some "trickle chargers"), it maintains a constant voltage (usually around 13.2 to 13.5 volts), and the battery only draws current when needed to maintain that voltage. So you can keep the battery hooked up to the float charger all the time when it is not in use, preventing the harmful self discharge that will eventually ruin a battery that is left unused and uncharged for long periods.

I have the small powertank that Celestron sells too, it is ok. It will power my Nexstar for a few hours, so it is nice when I am at the house.
Posted 06 May 2009 - 02:48 PM
I believe it is a black and decker brand.
Like with Celestron and Orion powertanks, the real manufacturer might be a different company. www.xantrex.com is one of powertank suppliers to Black & Decker. It really gets confusing who makes what these days.

Posted 12 May 2009 - 04:14 PM
Mine lasted a few months before refusing to take a charge. I bought two Sears DieHards, the first of which also died. The (free) replacement has behaved impeccably.
a diehard? you mean a full sized car battery? Jeeze dude! just what are your power requirements anyway? you runnin' a 40 inch refractor AND an observatory AND heaters for the city?

I wish... It seemed like overkill, but then my wife left the car lights on all night and it sure came in handy!
Posted 14 May 2009 - 12:58 AM
Posted 14 May 2009 - 11:23 AM
If you over charge it, it never keeps a full charge again.
I ended up getting a Starizona Piggyback power pack to replace it.
But recently I decided I needed this extra battery that I paid good money for.
So I contacted Celestron and they advised me to return it for inspection.
I am awaiting the results of this effort. But I think I will be finally getting a working unit.
Advise, if you buy one of these, put it on a timer as they are very sensitive.
Nice flashlight on it though!

Just got a new one delivered!
At least you get the warenty.

Featured articles nominations
The featured articles of the wiki are articles that represent the best that the Harry Potter Wiki has to offer. This is not a way to showcase the articles of your favourite characters, houses, or the like.
An article must…
- Be well-written and detailed.
- Be unbiased, non-point of view.
- Be sourced with all available sources and appearances.
- Follow the Layout Guide and all other policies on the Harry Potter Wiki.
- Following the review process, be stable, i.e. it does not change significantly from day to day and is not the subject of ongoing edit wars. This does not apply to vandalism and protection or semi-protection as a result of vandalism.
- Not be tagged with any sort of improvement tags (i.e. more sources, expand, etc).
- Have a proper lead that gives a good summary of the topic and can be used for the front page featured box.
- Have significant information from all sources and appearances, especially a biography for character articles.
- Be completely referenced for all available material and sources.
- Have all quotes and images sourced.
- Provide at least one quote on the article. A leading quote at the beginning of the article will be required only if there is quotable dialogue by or about the subject. Although quotes may be placed in the body of the article, a maximum of one quote is allowed at the beginning of each section.
- Include a "personality and traits" section on all character articles.
- Include a "magical skills and abilities" section on all relevant character articles, especially for Wizard characters where said powers and/or abilities are stipulated.
- Include a reasonable number of images of sufficient quality to illustrate the article, if said images are available.
- Pass review by the Department of Mysteries review panel.
How to nominate:
- First, nominate an article you find is worthy of featured status, putting it at the bottom of the list below; see criteria above.
- Others will object to the nomination if they disagree that the article is good enough; they will then supply reasons for doing so, and ways to improve the article (errors, style, organisation, images, notability, sources).
- Supporters adjust the article until the objectors (with reasonable objections) are satisfied.
- The article is placed on the featured article list and added to the front page queue.
- Also, if, at least a week after the article's nomination, that article has 2 Unspeakable supports and no objections (or the objections have been stricken or overridden), it will be added to the queue, and will be officially known as a "featured article."
- Be sure to place sign in the "Nominated by" line when the nomination is posted for voting.
How to vote:
- Before doing anything, be sure to read the article completely, keeping a sharp eye out for mistakes.
- Afterwards, compare the article to the criteria listed above, and then either support or object the article's nomination.
- If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so, and how it can be improved.
- As stated above, any objections will be looked upon by the nominator, supporters, and anyone willing to improve the article, and action will be taken to please the objectors. Do not strike other users' objections; it is up to the objector to review the changes and strike if they are satisfied.
- Once an article has a total of three votes, and no outstanding objections after at least a week, the article will be added to the list and be officially known as a "featured article."
- No nominator may vote for their own nominations.
Also remember to add {{F.A. Nomination}} at the top of the article you are nominating.
At least once every month, the next article in the queue will be highlighted on the Main Page as featured, marked with the {{FA}} template and removed from the list of nominations. The beginning of the article then appears on the Main Page via the {{Featured article}} template. Nominations that are inactive with outstanding objections for a month will be eliminated from the nominations list by the Unspeakables.
