Hiawatha 7.0 becomes Monitoring Application
Version 7 of the GPL webserver introduces a monitoring application.
The Hiawatha Monitor is a PHP 5 web application with MySQL database. It can run on the same host as the webserver, or an alternative. The monitor utilizes the Banshee web framework.
Besides this, Hiawatha now uses XSLT to display index content. The old option ''IndexStyle'' has been dropped. Thanks to Cygwin 1.7, the Windows version now includes support for Ipv6. Hiawatha 6.7 and older version users should ensure the URL rewriting has changed its name by the upgrade.
Hiawatha is available for download as sourcecode and binary version for Mac OS and Windows. Unofficial packages for various Linux distros and OpenBSD are also available. A FreeBSD port can be found at Freshports.

UW-Eau Claire's website says Sodexo has been a partner with the school for Blugold Dining since spring 2002. It goes on to say that Sodexo's operation at the university employs almost 100 full-time union workers, and about 250 UW-Eau Claire and high school students.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A giant food service company that bumped thousands of college cafeteria workers from its health plan earlier this year now says it's backtracking.
Sodexo had justified its original decision by saying it was aligning corporate policies with the requirements of President Barack Obama's health care law. But the move fueled a union organizing drive and campus protests.
Now Sodexo's experience could be a cautionary tale for other employers looking to blame "Obamacare" for benefit reductions.
Julie Peterson, the company's vice president for benefits, tells The Associated Press the latest policy shift will restore eligibility for health care and other benefits next year to many of the affected workers.
The Obama administration says nothing in the health care law requires an employer to drop coverage.

Web Japan > Kids Web Japan > Language > Quick Japanese > 18. "YOROSHIKU"
This phrase is used when you first meet someone or when you ask someone to do something. The polite way to say this is "YOROSHIKU ONEGAI SHIMASU."
"Hajimemashite. Doozo yoroshiku." = How do you do? It's nice to meet you.
"Yoroshiku onegai shimasu." = It's nice to meet you, too.
Note: In the system of romanization used in this section, "ee" is not pronounced like feet. Instead, it means that the vowel sound "e" as in pet is prolonged. In the same manner, "oo" is pronounced not like shoot but as the "o" vowel, similar to pork, pronounced twice as long.

Both sides are making new offers to put an end to BART strike
OAKLAND Bay Area Rapid Transit authorities and striking workers both made offers late Friday that they said had a single aim: get stationary trains that move 400,000 commuters on any given workday back on track.
After a sluggish morning commute that drew regionwide gripes, BART general manager Grace Crunican said they had reached out to the mediator and were "ready to resume negotiations at any time."
Hours later, as the evening commute was underway, union President Roxanne Sanchez held a news conference with their offer: sign off on pay, health care and pension issues, and send the remaining sticking point — work rules — to arbitration.
But BART officials later said they would be willing to send the entire contract to arbitration, but not the work rules alone. So, with no deal in place, residents were heading into a weekend without BART service, complicating vacation plans and making it tough for fans heading to events including a music show on Treasure Island and art exhibits throughout San Francisco's Open Studios.
San Francisco Bay Area rapid transit workers are on strike for the second time since July, scrambling the morning commute for hundreds of thousands of workers who were up before dawn to clog highways, swarm buses and shiver on ferry decks as they found alternative ways to the office.
Six months of on-again, off-again negotiations have brought agreement on key issues such as raises, health care and pensions. But there remained a snarl Friday: a package of work rules involving when schedules are posted, whether workers can file for overtime when they've been out sick, and how paychecks are delivered.
The labor details were meaningless to Marsha Smith, who watched the sun rise as she rode toward her office in a crowded bus. Like many commuters Friday, Smith left her house while the moon was still shone brightly to be sure to make it in on time. "I am so tired. I am so frustrated and I'm so over it," the court records supervisor said.
Discussions fell apart late Thursday after a marathon 30-hour negotiation.

It's the economy, Scott!
Mark Teixeira might want to get his contract done by Christmas to get the negotiations out of the way so he can enjoy the holidays with his family, but Scott Boras should want to get it out of the way for an even more important reason than that.
The global economic crisis really hasn't hit baseball all that hard yet, not when MLB just reported that gross revenues have risen to $6.5 billion (or an average of almost $202 million per team), but the harsh reality of a customer base with far less spending power will soon become apparent as season-ticket renewals come due in January and teams start finalizing next season's sponsorship agreements.
I don't know if any other teams are going to be pulling out of the bidding, but the bad economy might be the reason that Boras hasn't seen the kind of offers he was counting on. The best offer out there is thought to be from the Washington Nationals, though nobody seems to have a clue what it is. The Orioles are believed to have offered a seven-year deal worth up to $150 million, and the Angels have announced that they've made an eight-year offer. The Angels have not revealed their bid, but a baseball exec I talked to earlier today thinks that -- at best -- the total value is only slightly more than $160 million.
Local bad economic news: If you doubt that baseball teams are going to feel the effects of the economic downturn, I'm hearing that the Orioles recently notified game-day employees that they are downsizing their stadium staff for the upcoming season and will need many of them only for the higher-attendance games.

"By far the best reason for and against war."
"Stand for the Queen!"
Patriotism is the number two cause of battlefield fatalities, surpassed only by improper foot care.
Patriotism & You
Patriotism is an air-borne disease caused by the bacterium enlistment bonusai. It was first observed in 1776 by Dr. Arnold Bazonga, but was initially confused with the alcohol-borne illness bravery. Patriotism is communicable through the auditory ingestion of feces. Contamination often occurs from politicians, entrepreneurs, country music singers, and French Emperors.
It is especially virulent through outbreaks of propaganda and exacerbated by poor economic conditions at the local level. Symptoms often include baseless mistrust of foreigners, suicidal tendencies, and lack of appetite due to recent morphine injections to save your ass from that sniper while your "buddies" hide for cover, and leave you to die.
Patriotism In The News
Although not positively identified until 1776 patriotism was out ravaging humanity as early as 1 BC, whilst some eminent historians even believe it may have been responsible for the demise of the dinosaurs.
- Ides of March Outbreak:1 BC-68 AD Julius Caesar became the first victim of patriotism, witnesses claim that Brutus, Cassius, and others were covered in patriotism when they emerged from the Roman Senate.
- Late Romano-Celtic Pandemic:Circa mid 5th Century CE Britannia was undergoing a massive upheaval as the Roman Empire was falling into decay. A particularly virulent form of patriotism swept across the empire, but it was in the British Isles that it hit home hardest. Local War Baron Arthur became infected, and soon spread it throughout the visiting Anglo Saxons and Picts. Things went horribly wrong after "his girl" ran off with some French bastard. Arthur was placed in isolation in the Isle of Avalon Hospital for Tropical Diseases, where it is hoped he will make a full recovery.
- The Voice of DOG Pandemic 1428 Thinly disguised as religious zealotry; "Saint Joan" rampaged throughout northern France to free the French from English good manners, and restore proper French bastardry. Scholars later noted that with or without the help of a plague even a little girl like Joan of Arc could best Henry VI.
- American War for Revolution 1776 Planning an invasion of Canada to be led by Lafayette inculcated a particularly horrific strain of the bacteria. George Washington declared that America was the land of the free, and the home of the brave, except for his African American slaves whom he declared to be "equally brave as those English chaps but quite a lot less free. Except for Yolanda, she was technically free, part of a buy one get one deal I got with my cook Maurice." [1]
- The Reign of Terror 1793 While patriotism was ignoring black people in America it was having its way with heads of state in France. Often symptoms of patriotism in France would escalate from mild wrist pain to full blown neck severing in just 72 hours. Louis the Sixteenth and a Third (called so because of his enormously large phallus) became the most prominent victim of the period.
- North vs. South Fizz Pandemic 1861-1865 The Confederacy is formed when southern states walk away from Union tables of the Pepsi Challenge and swear an oath that Coca-Cola products will always be produced by slave labor. Ironically after losing the war Coca-Cola out sources its bottling plants to foreign slave labor.
- World Wide Pandemic II 1939 Germans travel to Poland to infect the Polish with a rare manifest destiny strain of the virus thought wiped out in the late 1800's in North America. Mutations begin and infect the entire world, one of the worst outbreaks occurring in Kamikaze, Japan.
- This Ain't Your Daddy's War 2003-2012 Despite recent educational programs little has been accomplished to slow communicability of the latest outbreak. Last year 20 million people in America alone were infected causing the death of 30,000-100,000 Iraqi civilians.
Patriotism Amongst Foreigners
"We hope to cure Patriotism overseas outright, whilst providing quality parking lots"
In recent years, patriotism has increased amongst the nations of Johnny Foreigner, spreading throughout the peoples of Middle East, Asia, Africa and South America like a wild fire. Patriotism in foreigners is called "nationalism", and is a virulent and terrible thing, as nobody is allowed to be proud of their own country but us.
Outbreaks of Patriotism were seen in several Central and South American states during the 18th and 19th centuries, along with other gifts from their European Colonial benefactors such as clothes, cholera and smallpox. However patriotism became pandemic in many places such as Peru, Bolivia and Cuba during the 20th century.
An unusual strain of patriotism was discovered throughout the Middle East in the latter half of the 20th century. Known as the Anti-American Strain (Imperius Wankiyank) the virus spread from the Cashmir in the East through to Western Africa. Causing intense heat to the temple, forcing victims to wear tight towels, the virus literally exploded in pockets throughout the world. Efforts to eradicate the strain through carpetbombing a "cure" has worked sporadically throughout Afganistan and Iraq, though violent outbreaks are still reported (by the liberal media).
This same strain has evolved in recent years affecting specific locations such as London and Paris, and more recently the entire nation of Denmark.
An outbreak of pseudo-Patriotism (a similar strain is found thoughout the south of the US) was located in South Africa, forcing the Ruling Authorities to legislate for segregation of the affected from the non-white community. Within the whole of Africa patriotism is the primary cause of death, with AIDS, landmines and machetes to the groin accounting for 80% of the remaining fatalities. These figures are from the WHO/WHAT? report of 2002 and may vary.
It is hoped that the West's War on Terror will help to eradicate all remaining outbreaks of Patriotism amongst foreign nations.
Patriotism Awards
Survivors of patriotism are given awards to commemorate their actions. People like Buffalo Bill, who won the Congressional Medal of Honor for the most redskins killed with a single action rifle. And who can forget General Douglas MacArthur? The most infected soldier in world history. His bouts with patriotism were legendary. Whether running away from the Philippines or hosing down deadbeat veterans of WWI a foaming mad MacArthur always did his duty.
The Douglas MacArthur's Patriot Awards for Patriots [2] is an bi-annual presentation. Previous awardees have included Charles De Gaul, George Bush Snr, Biggles and SpongeBob SquarePants.
No Cure In Sight
Today, the Olie Norths and the Ayatollah Khomeinis of the world keep things interesting with their "I don't recall" this and "Death to America" thats.
Threats are no cure for patriotism. If they were, my neighbors would be listening to The Clash instead of country music. [3] Curing patriotism entails passing unpopular laws to allow things like flag burnings, defecation on the steps of government buildings, and the public pie facing of politicians. These sorts of legislative proceedures may be fine for your third world nations, like France, but not in my backyard, bucko!
Popular Communist Hero Noam Chomsky has pushed for more investment in an effort to find a cure for Patriotism in his books "American Empire Strikes Back" and "Human Rights, yeah Right".
In recent years, research, utilising Apathy, has provided a glimmer of hope in the fight against Patriotism. Tests are currently ongoing.
So You've Got Patriotism, Now What?
First, your life is not over. If your not careful, it will be over when some jerk finds you in a combat zone and starts taking pot shots at you. Second, move to Canada. Nothing cures patriotism faster than the cold, featureless rural scenery of Alberta.
Draft dodgers seeking relief from the disease during the Vietnam War know what I'm talking about. Canada has free health care for everybody and they don't want you to love anything. Except hockey, you must learn to love hockey.
Alternatives To Patriotism
- ↑ The award was originally called the James Monroe Award for Manifest Destiny in Action, but was changed after an amendment to international policy in the mid 20th century
- ↑ Appreciation of Country Music is thought to be one of the major symptoms of Patriotism, and perhaps the most shocking

Woman Pleads Guilty to Smashing Cowell's Window
by Associated Press | July 6, 2012 at 11:30 AM | Celebrity News
LONDON — A judge has banned a 30-year-old woman from going near Simon Cowell after she admitted smashing a window of the entertainment mogul's house with a brick
Leanne Zaloumis was arrested March 24 at Cowell's west London mansion.
Prosecutors say Cowell was watching TV in his bedroom when he heard a loud bang coming from his bathroom and discovered Zaloumis inside with a brick.
At a court hearing Friday, Zaloumis admitted possessing a brick with intent to damage or destroy property, but denied burglary and affray.
Judge John Denniss said the 102 days Zaloumis has spent in jail were sufficient punishment, but warned she would go to prison if she breached her bail conditions, which forbid her from contacting Cowell or going within 300 yards (meters) of his home.

Planar Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:PLNR), a worldwide leader in specialty
display solutions, recorded sales of $41.4 million and GAAP loss per
share of $0.23 in its fourth fiscal quarter ended September 28, 2012. On
a Non-GAAP basis (see reconciliation table), loss per share was $0.10 in
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. Sales for fiscal year 2012 were
$171.4 million and GAAP loss per share was $0.81. On a Non-GAAP basis
loss per share was $0.40 in fiscal 2012.
"While sales and earnings in the fourth quarter were below our
expectations, I am pleased that we did a good job managing working
capital, resulting in an increase to our cash position," said Gerry
Perkel, Planar's President and Chief Executive Officer. "In addition,
the fourth quarter represented our highest quarter ever for sales of
digital signage products. While we are pleased with the progress in
growing our digital signage product revenues, we did take some
additional actions to reduce our expense levels as we enter our new
fiscal year as our commercial and industrial product revenues have
declined faster than we had anticipated."
The Company's total revenues decreased 7 percent compared to the third
quarter of fiscal 2012 and declined 19 percent compared to the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2011. Geographic results (in terms of quarterly
revenue compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011) decreased in
all three Geographic regions, with the Americas decreasing 20 percent,
Asia Pacific decreasing 17 percent, and Europe, the Middle East and
Africa (EMEA) decreasing 17 percent. Sales of Digital Signage products
totaled $13.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, a 20 percent
increase from the same period a year ago. This increase was driven by
higher sales of tiled LCD systems and signage monitors, which increased
18 percent and 57 percent respectively compared with the same period a
year ago. In addition, sales of digital signage products increased in
all three Geographic regions compared with the same period last year.
Sales of Commercial and Industrial (C&I) products declined 30 percent to
$27.8 million compared with the same quarter a year ago. This decrease
was primarily driven by lower sales of Electroluminescent (EL) displays,
rear-projection cubes, desktop monitors, and high-end home products,
partially offset by increased sales of touch monitors which grew 42
percent compared to the same period a year ago.
The Company's consolidated gross profit margin (on a Non-GAAP basis) was
17.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012, down from 26.8 percent in
the fourth quarter of 2011 (see reconciliation table). The decrease in
gross profit margin, as a percent of sales, from the previous year was
primarily due to the under-absorption of expenses in certain production
areas with a relatively higher fixed cost basis, such as EL production
facilities, and an unfavorable product mix with a smaller proportion of
total revenue derived from sales of relatively higher margin products
such as rear-projection cubes.
Total operating expenses (on a Non-GAAP basis) for the fourth quarter of
2012 decreased $2.9 million, or 21 percent, to $10.5 million compared
with the same quarter a year ago, as expenses declined in all functions
as a result of cost reduction measures implemented earlier in fiscal
2012, partially offset by increased project related expenses in research
and development.
The Company's cash balance increased $1.6 million sequentially to $17.8
million at the end of the fourth quarter compared to the end of the
third quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in cash was primarily caused
by a reduction in inventory and accounts receivable, which was partially
offset by a reduction in accounts payable and the loss incurred.
Looking forward, the Company remains committed to transforming its
business to be more focused on markets that are growing, like digital
signage, and becoming profitable, including pursuing further actions
intended to more rapidly effect the Company's strategic transformation
and drive higher levels of shareholder value. In the near term, for the
first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company expects continued revenue
growth in sales of digital signage products both compared to the first
quarter of last year and the fourth quarter of 2012. As a result, the
Company currently anticipates revenue in the range of $44 to $48 million
and a Non-GAAP loss of $0.05 to a Non-GAAP profit of $0.01 in the first
quarter of 2013.
Results of operations and the business outlook will be discussed in a
conference call today, November 20, 2012, beginning at 2:00 PM Pacific
Time. The call can be heard via the Internet through a link on Planar's
website, www.planar.com,
or through numerous other investor sites, and will be available for
replay until December 20, 2012. The Company intends to post on its
website a transcript of the prepared management commentary from the
conference call shortly after the conclusion of the call.

Act of 1995: This release contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
relating to Planar's business operations and prospects, including
statements relating to the Company's expected levels of revenue and
revenue growth, gross profit levels and gross profit rates, and
operating expense levels for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, and the
other statements made under the heading "Business Outlook,". These
statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
federal securities laws. These and other forward-looking statements,
which may be identified by the inclusion of words such as "expects,"

that are subject to change, and actual results may differ materially
from the forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees
of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties that
are difficult to predict. Many factors, including the following, could
cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking
statements: poor or further weakened domestic and international business
and economic conditions; changes or continued reductions in the demand
for products in the various display markets served by the Company; any
delay in the timing of customer orders or the Company's ability to ship
product upon receipt of a customer order; the extent and timing of any

to fund desired expenditures, including due to difficulties in obtaining
necessary financing; changes in the flat-panel monitor industry; changes
in customer demand or ordering patterns; changes in the competitive

manufacturing capacity from the Company's third-party manufacturing
partners or other interruptions in the supply of components the Company
incorporates in its finished goods including as a result of natural

statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date on
which they are made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation
to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of this press release.
Note Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company's
earnings release contains Non-GAAP financial measures that exclude
share-based compensation and the requirements of Topic 718 of the FASB
Accounting Standards CodificationTM, "Compensation-Stock
Compensation". The Non-GAAP financial measures also exclude impairment
and restructuring charges, the amortization of intangible assets related
to previous acquisitions, various tax charges including the valuation
allowance against deferred tax assets, the gain or loss on foreign
currency due to the non-cash nature of the charge, and various other
adjustments. The Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company
should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial
measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results
calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those
financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The Non-GAAP
financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently
from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures
used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the
Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures.

How to enable Face Unlock on Android
If you have an Android phone or tablet that's been updated to the latest version 4 of the operating system – also known as Ice Cream Sandwich – you may find a fun new feature in the settings
Called 'Face Unlock', it's a way of securing your device using – as the name suggests – a photo of your own face.
Convenient and quick, it means that if your phone recognises you using its built-in webcam, you'll have instant access to all its features, without the need to enter a passcode.
Face Unlock is not quite as secure as using a passcode or unlock pattern, as the image recognition can be fooled by someone who looks similar to you or – in some circumstances – a good photograph. But it is better than leaving it lying around with no security at all, and a lot faster than other unlock methods.
Just remember that you won't be able to lend your phone or tablet to family members – although that may be a good thing, if they steal it a lot.
Here's how to get started
- To enable Face Unlock, go to Settings>Security>Screen lock and draw the pattern or enter the code you're currently using.
- Now, you can choose 'Face Unlock' from the list shown – if it's not listed, it's not an option on your phone.
- Your device will now try to take a picture of your face. It can be quite tricky to get your face in the outline shown – the best results are usually if you sit facing a window or light source, holding the tablet or phone in front of you. Remember it's a mirror image – you'll need to move the tablet to left to move your picture to the right, and down for up etc. Once the device sees you, it'll move onto the next page.
- Here, you can set a pattern or a lock code to use if the tablet doesn't recognise you, so you can't be locked out completely, and you can lend your device to someone else without changing your face unlock settings. We suggest a memorable pattern as this can be harder to guess than a code.
- With Face Unlock set up, try it out by turning your tablet or phone to standby and waking it up again. It helps to hold the camera closer to your face than would if just reading the screen, and if you're having problems getting it to work, you may need to set it up again with a clearer image.
- You should see an option for 'Improve Face Matching' in the security settings – run through this a few times with different facial expressions and Android will remember them all.

A Night In Review : #DimMakGrammySunday @ Drai's
Last week we brought our first installment of, "A Night In Review" this week we're bringing you the second installment of the series covering our #DimMakGrammySunday at Drai's. Here you'll find in depth details of the night including details of Salva and Steve Aoki's set. You can also check out upcoming events at Dim Mak.
"As you know, the Grammy Awards happened on Sunday, and none other than bossman himself, Steve Aoki, was nominated for an award. The fact that there are now multiple electronic categories at the Grammys is a testament to how far the genre has come. Needless to say, at the Dim Mak after-party, everyone was in a fantastic mood and ready to celebrate electronic music and it's ever evolving forms, with sets from DJ Metric, Fashen, DJ Fresh Direct, Salva, Steve Aoki, and Deorro.
Every surface of Drai's, from floors, to tables, to the spaces in between, were covered with people getting down and having a good time. When Salva took over the decks, he was greeted by an ever-eager audience that was ready to be bass blown away by some hardcore Trap music, and they were not disappointed. Salva started off with "City Star" by Rusty and then dropped into "Purple Swag" by A$AP Rocky. But the highlight of the set had to be when Salva went old school and mixed Missy Elliot's classic "Get Your Freak On" with the new instant classic, by Kanye West, "Mercy," only to launch right back in time when he played "Face Down Ass Up" by 2 Live Crew and "What's Your Fantasy," by Ludacris. Salva gave a nod to Trap music when he played a little RL Grime and the crowd fed off his energy and the table-shaking bass that blasted out of the speakers. Salva ended his set with crowd pleasers "All Gold Everything" by 2 Chainz, and "Fucking Problem" by A$AP Rocky. He saved the best for last and dropped Drake's new song "Started from the Bottom" as confetti shot all around the club. It was a great moment and totally epitomized the awesomeness that was the vibe in Drai's.
Then, as the confetti was still falling from the sky, Steve Aoki stepped up to the table, and the crowd of people that had gathered around the dance floor went nuts, not to mention everyone else in the club filing in from all areas, inside and out, to see what was up. His first song was "Don't You Worry Child" by Swedish House Mafia ft. John Martin and being one to never disappoint, he brought up singer John Martin himself to give a live rendition of the vocals. Then, Steve dove forward into some new songs of his own. The crowd definitely enjoyed getting a preview of what was to come and were rewarded with some Aoki classics like "Ladi Dadi" the Tommy Trash remix, as well as Turbulence, and of course, Pursuit of Happiness. He also dropped the vocal mix of "No Beef" which was a big hit with everyone inside. The fun really started when Borgore popped out of nowhere and stepped up to the decks while Aoki played his song "Decisions." Before he stepped off the stage, Aoki made a point to tell everyone around to stick around for up-and-coming DJ Deorro who threw down some late night dirty dutch style music.
It was a ridiculous night to say the least, and the energy in the club reverberated out onto the streets as Deorro's set ended and the lights came on. Those in attendance also included DJ Fresh Direct, Miguel, Skrillex, Carnage, John Martin, and Joachim Garraud. It was a night that proved how epic electronic dance music can be, and how it can bring people from all over the place together who are just searching for some good music and a damn good time." – Jenna Browning

Holland Days with Jamal: SALVA
We're proud to present a new section on the Dim Mak blog called "Holland Days with Jamal". In these weekly series our newest intern Jamal will interview various artists and at the same time learn a lot about the American culture and the Dim Mak family.
Jamal's first interview is with Trap artist SALVA, who will be playing at the Steve Aoki x Grammy After Party. SALVA is mostly known for his legendary remix with RL Grime of Kanye West's "Mercy". To buy tickets for the Grammy After Party, click here.
Hi Salva, how are you doing on this fine and sunny day?
Chillin out
Whats the meaning behind the Pope as your profile photo? Do you just love him that much?
Yeah I wanted to be the pope when I was a little kid… Haha for real though.
How did the process of the Mercy remix you did with RL Grime go?
I had the idea when I was in the studio at Power 106 when Big Sean premiered the original "Mercy".. I was sitting there remembering that Madlib and Dilla used that reggae sample before. Brought RL in to do the track with me because we started working together recently, I remixed one of his tracks for Wedidit and I was always playing his stuff out… so we collabed on it and didn't think too much about it.. Just had fun with it and it came out really good.
Did you think the remix would take off like it did? How much did it impact your life/career?
Yeah it's helped get me a lot of exposure for sure..thankful for that.. just really helped me get in front of bigger crowds — been DJing all my life so it was a good platform to show kids what I do.
Are you still running around coloring the streets? If so where can we see some of your work?
No haha I don't paint.
J Dilla's birthday was today (February 7th). How important is he as a person to you?
Really big influence on all of us who were into golden era Hip Hop to modern underground stuff…his productions, his rap. He produced so many classics, if you were into Hip Hop at all the past 20 years — whether you know it or not you love Dilla's music.
Don't you just hate that remake of "Fright Night"?
Ha yeah it really wasn't the best.. The OG is my fave though, of course.
Are we going to see you scratching during the Dim Mak Sundays night this Sunday February 10th?
A little bit maybe, I've been kinda forced into using CD-Js as of late, turntables are dissapearing accross the world!!!
Would you say that Bucharest, Romania is the best place to party? And why?
Kids just go really hard there, and the average party goer probably knows more about new electronic music than I do…they're just really hungry for what's next there for some reason.
How awesome was it when Pusha T came and did his verse over your remix during RBMA Culture Clash?
Yeah that was probably one of the best things that came out of doing the "Mercy" remix for sure.. He's the illest man what can I say!! Pusha just shines on everybody.
What are the future releases on the Frite Nite label you'd like to tell us about?
We have really cool things popping, more underground style — for instance Jimmy Edgar and Adbourke remixes of The Starship Connection record we did last year, and an EP from Ana Sia that is really cracking tribal bass stuff.
Are you excited for your show this Sunday? Any surprises up your sleeve?
Probably no Pusha T this time hahaha (but maybe again soon).. nah I'm just gonna do me, I've wanted to come play Drai's for a minute.. feel it's gonna be a good platform to play some big rap songs and some banging dance tracks too. Very excited… and it's GRAMMY'S NIGHT!!

I'd say the dryness is the problem. Get plenty or water onto it and it should perk up.
I'm guessing its arundinacea Berkeley. usually any dryness is not an issue but if newly planted it could be the reason for it collapsing.

Microsoft has offered a glimpse into what the future of gaming may look like. The company's Research team has detailed on its Web site a visual IllumiRoom system that combines the virtual and physical worlds using a Kinect camera.
Illumiroom (Credit: Microsoft)
IllumiRoom uses the features and geometry of a room, captured by Kinect, to alter the projected visuals in real-time. A custom pre-process arrangement is not necessary.
The technology is currently in a proof-of-concept stage, and it is not clear if Microsoft plans to incorporate the technology into the Xbox 360 or its rumored successor.

Saw some sort of bee at the GC on the weekend...
For me it's always about next year...
I saw my first solitary bee last week buzzing around my Thyme. Some species do start early in the year I've read. Also discovered two bright orange butterflies in my garden this weekend if anyone can tell me what they might be. Sadly, didn't get a pic but they were a good size with orange and brown wings and furry bodies. Would they more likely be moths?
I have two halves of a garden, one part is well established and requires just a little tweaking, but the remainder is not very mature at all and I have already resigned myself to the work that next year will require to bring the two gardens closer in age. I'm a perfectionist, so I think impatience and never being satisfied are my state of being.
Bunny.. wrote (see)
Just looked them up, they're lovely . Are they fussy on soil ? I have heavy clay .
Same here Bunny and my tree peony, which I took from my Dad's garden 28 years ago is still going strong. Just love it when it blooms. Only problem I find is that it is too short lived.
Just saw a ladybird on the patio rose; Shining Light
Morning folks, I've finally got the rest of my seeds done as follows
Sunflower....................................Teddy Bear
...................................................Red Sun
..................................................Italian White
..................................................Colour Fashion
.................................................Russian Giant
.................................................Toy Shop
..................................................Black Magic
Rudbeckia.................................Rustic Dwarf
Aubrieta....................................Large Flower Mixed
Pansy........................................Swiss Giant Mixed
Hellebore.....................................Red Forms
..................................................Black Beauty
Sweet Peas..................................Giant Waved
....................................................Singing the Blues
.....................................................Royal Mixed
I think that lot will keep me going for the whole year, I have just done 1/2 of the Sweet Peas I shall do the rest in the Autumn and grow through the winter as I have done the last few years.
Lovely sunny day, really enjoyed the garden at lunchtime so thought I'd share some pics I took....
Crocus smiling in the sunshine! This is the bed the mother-in-law dug over to get rid of the ground elder so it's still in it's very early stages. Planning a lot more bulbs for next year, when the pennies allow!
This GG is the biggest of my tree peonies It's about 5'5" or thereabouts. Like I said, I haven't see the flowers yet but the foilage is long-lived and absolutely lovely. Everyone who came into the garden after we bought the house in June last year remarked on it and asked what it was.
My two other tree peonies in the main bed. It's a bit bare at the moment but is slowly coming back to life! Hopefully you can see them okay. They're both about 4' high. Roots aren't huge and they seem to get on fine with the other plants, including when they were smothered in ground elder. They seem quite hardy.
And just because it makes me smile every time I come up the driveway, here is my mini bed in front of the old sheds. A few crocus, lots of primulas and pansies, a rose and honeysuckle in the background. This was entirely covered in a huge jasmine bush when we bought the place but that was quickly dispatched.
There's been a butterfly hanging round this patch for the last couple of days, can anyone spot him in the pic?!!
What lovely pics ShropshireLass. Thank you for sharing them
Great garden, love the dogs too!
You've been busy Rain, be interested how your Aubretia do. Sowed some very early this year, no joy, but have seeds left over so might try again.
Great pictures ShropshireLass, Spring is a great time of year, lots of colour. Crocus are one my favourite flowers. They multiple on their own and don't cost much to add too. Love the dogs. Did look but couldn't see the butterfly
Glad others have been seeing the first insects/pollinators out and about in the sun
You like your sunflowers Rain. I grew them last year for their seeds to feed birds over Winter. I've a mix of different heights this year from dwarf to 16ft plus. Haven't sown mine.
Nice pics. I've little dafs in flower at present with tulips putting out lots of leaves but no buds.
I must admit to having a soft spot for Sunflowers Zoomer especially the Black Magic and Teddy Bear, my Russian Giants in 2011 were about 10 ft tall thankfully not the 16ft that they can get too, I'm dreading having to prick this lot out though will take me few days I would think, I just hope that I get a good turn out of seeds as last year was a complete wash out but then the year was literally
I have some daffodils in bud, but no flowers yet. Snowdrops are still all out, lasted well this year. Had a couple of sunny days so made a new strawberry bed and sowed some seeds in the GH, tomatoes, penstemon, ageratum, French marigolds in electric propagaters. Weeded, manured and rotovated onion patch - was going to plant it today but the wind was too strong. A big tree blew down on our track and local farmer had to chop some away so we could get home after shopping. Professional will have to come to finish it, and it's on the phone line. March has come in like a lion lets hope it goes out like a lamb.
Same here Bunny.. & ShropshireLass, my lab is super nosey, she will even dip her nose into my coffee to see if its tea or coffee, if its coffee she just jumps up on my knee & curls up for a snooze, but if its tea, she just sits there perfectly erect like a show dog, waiting for a drink. I mostly have to show her what something is before I can get on with said something or its nose in pushing me out of the way. Im not moaning, she is adorable, I love her personality.
On a gardening note, I would have liked to have mowed the lawn this morning, but, I bought a new mower (my old one got stolen), but my new one is petrol. well I dont have a car, so I had to walk all the way into town to pick it up (taxi back, it was 30kg). I'm not so idiotic as to think that the mower would come with petrol, (thats just stupid & dangerous). So yesterday I walked into town again to buy a petrol carry can, then walked all the way back home & to the nearest petrol station (But what luck - no oil). Even went to several nearby garages, "oh no we dont do that oil", to then get home again and find out, its basically high performance motorbike oil. So now I have to walk into another town today to a halfords to get some oil.

Dudley, Massachusetts' own, The Hotel Year, have announced today that they've signed to Tiny Engines to release their yet to be titled sophomore record. The band is currently wrapping up the tracking process for the release, and so far, all that has been said is that the album is loosely scheduled to release this summer.
Tiny Engines has pretty unique roster, only time will tell just how great this signing will be in the long run. Until then, follow the jump for a stream of "Lonely Hearts Club", one of the songs from their debut album, …It Never Goes Out.

This year is the first in a while that Pixar hasn't had a movie on our Most Anticipated List, but that might change next year since they'll be re-introducing the world to Mike and Sully from Monsters Inc Fortunately, they'll be doing so by taking us all back in time to the rowdy college days at the University of Fear where the two became friends.
They'll most likely go on some epic, wacky adventure between rounds of fear pong and chasing one-eyed co-eds.
Making Monsters Inc 2 a prequel is a potentially great idea because it opens up the world to more explanation and the kind of adventure that won't seem quite as forced as seeing Mike and Sully take down another bad guy in the corporate structure. Plus, you know, all the raves. [Twitch]

Drifters win three.......Drifters remain undefeated in Tidewater
- Details
- Last Updated on Wednesday, 14 January 2009 19:20
- Published on Wednesday, 14 January 2009 19:20
- Hits: 738
The Drifters varsity basketball team [9-2, 3-0] produced a three-win week last week, as they maneuvered through the Tidewater district, while winning a non-district game at home. The Beach rolled over opponents with an average of 14 points per game. Using a half-court zone defense and role players coming off the bench, the Drifters are now beginning to assert themselves. "We battled hard this past week—we are starting to see some productivity from more guys on our roster—and we are slowly embarking on the team toughness it takes to win big road games" Drifters boys varsity head coach Steve Swope said.
CB 51 – Middlesex 43
The Beach opened the game slowly as they fell behind 13-3 in the first quarter. After making some adjustments in defense, the Drifters rallied to take control of the game. Drifter point guard, T.T. Carey took over the second quarter by scoring 12 of his game high 22 points in the second quarter. Carey would later finish the game by scoring eight additional points in the third quarter; giving the Drifters a 42-36 lead. Carey had a banner day as he pulled down 12 rebounds, deflected 11 passes, one blocked shot and four steals.
Drifter stats: Dylan Farinet – 16 points [6-7], 6-7 free throws, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, deflected 11 passes, three blocked shots and produced four steals; Kevin "K-Dog" Swope – 11 points, 3 three-pointers, 8 deflections, 2 steals; Thomas Perry: solid defense.
CB 62 – Essex 55
The crowd got their money's worth when Region A powers, Drifters and Eagles battled for court supremacy last week. Drifters pounded the Trojans with a 21-13 lead in first quarter. Thanks to their six foot five foward, John Dille, the Trojans cut the lead to 34-28 at the half.
In the second half the Drifter guard Thomas Peery gave the crowd a show as he held the Trojan Division I prospect scoreless. Peery would later finish the game with 2 three-pointers. With college scouts watching, Farinet and Carey gave the Trojans fits with an abundance of court heroics. Carey dazzled the crowd with four steals that turned into dunks. He later finished with 23 points, including 8 field goals, 7-11 from the foul line, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 9 deflections and at total of 5 steals.
Farinet matched Carey's court prowess with 23 total points, 43% shooting from the field, 4 of 5 from the free throw line, 12 rebounds, 2 assists, 11 deflections, and six steals.
Other Drifter stats included: Jamel Dickerson, 4 points, solid defense; K-Dog Swope, three-pointer; Jeremy Robinson, three-pointer.
CB 89 – Matthews 63
The Blue Devils came into the Drifterdome last week hungry for a win, but would soon receive a rude awakening. After a battling the Drifters to a 16-16 to end the first quarter, the Beach lit up the scoreboard by outscoring the Blue Devils 73-47 in the final three quarters.
Drifter stats: TT Carey, 28 points [13-22]; 2 three-pointers, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 14 deflections, 4 steals; Dylan Farinet, 18 points, 1 three-pointer, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 6 deflections, 2 blocked shots and 2 steals; Thomas Peery, 14 points, 2 three-pointers; Thomas Hayward, 8 points, 4 rebounds, solid low post defense; K-Dog Swope, 9 points, 1 three-pointers, two assists, 2 deflections; Jeremy Robinson, 4 points, 4 steals; Joe Slater, 2 points; Travis Cundiff, solid defense; Ken Devers, solid defense; Alex Gorfida, solid defense.
Results of the King William versus Colonial Beach game were not available due to press deadlines. The Drifters will also travel to play to play arch-rival King George on Thursday, January 15. The Drifters will return home to face Middlesex on Tuesday, January 27.

Fisher and Penner
I don't understand how (most of) the media can be falling all over themselves congratulating Bryan Murray and Steve Tambellini for the kind of trades they've made. I don't like what Ottawa has done and I think the Penner trade just sucks for the Edmonton faithful.
I don't have any problems with Murray clearing out the deadwood (Ruutu, Elliot, Kovalev, Campoli) but he could not get rid of the really bad contracts Ottawa still holds going forward. Not surprisingly he was able to give away both Fisher and Kelly because both are useful players on reasonable contracts. But what did Ottawa get back? They got three middling draft picks, which means that in three or four years they might – might – have a player as good as Fisher is today. More likely, the Sens will still be losing this trade in three or four years. They could easily end up with nothing to show for these players.
On the other hand, Fisher and Kelly are players that are good enough and young enough to shorten the rebuild period. Dustin Penner is a similar story. The Oilers can't win this trade on any reasonable time frame, and they may not be able to win it at all. And if they kept Penner, the Oilers might be in a position to push at a playoff spot in a couple of years. Tyler Dellow (and most of the commenters on his site) feel pretty much the same way.
So why did they do it? I don't think much of either Bryan Murray or Steve Tambellini but I don't think the answer is stupidity. I think the Oilers traded Penner and the Sens traded Fisher even though the trades make the rebuild road longer for one reason and one reason only: Money. Not cap space. Money.
Both teams save about $5 million over the next year and that $5 million will go directly into the owner's pocket. Both teams were likely to miss the playoffs next year no matter what. They can miss the playoffs without Fisher or Penner as easily as they can miss them without Fisher and Penner.
And $5 million is $5 million.
Postscript: Actually, its a lot more than $5 million. The Oilers are going to end up spending well below the midpoint between the salary cap and the floor which gives them access to the escrow revenue sharing plan. This deal was probably worth $10 MM to the Oilers.
Postscript II: I like what the Canucks did yesterday, because I think they are marginally better with Lapierre and Higgins in the lineup than they are dressing Hodgson and Oreskevitch. They've added speed and experience at almost no cost.

James vs. Games 54 — James vs. Towerfall
It's time for the latest James vs. Games challenge, and this week, James is battling with arcade title Towerfall Ascension, a 2-D side-scroller of arrows, enemies, and wraparound screens.
James' challenge: Conquer level 3 of Towerfall with only three continues at his disposal. For reference, Mitchell defeated the level with one continue — but the level before that cost him four. James is also coming off a loss last week when he took on a Dark Souls 2 challenge, and his punishment for failure this week is dire: He'll be made to call his grandmother on Skype and work his five favorite curse words into the conversation.
Can James beat Towerfall? Will James' grandma be horrified by the words coming out of his mouth? Find out on this episode of James vs. Games, and don't forget to drop a comment on the video and hit the like button, and subscribe to the GameFront YouTube Channel.

It was supposed to be so simple. The conspiracy for world government had designated Americas Mayor as the Republicrud candidate. In November, the Ghoul would face the Democrud Womanoid, and let the worst man win. But der plan has gone awry. Now it is infinitely complicated.
The people wouldnt buy Rudy. Was it his arrogance? Was it the exposé by New York City firemen? Was it his cross-dressing? Was it the fact that he is as far left as Karl Marx? Was it his abysmally run campaign, in which he ignored all the states until Florida? Whatever, well never know, and now well never know his bra size for sure. Now Rudy and his law firm can concentrate on providing legal services for the Trans-Texas Corridor treason.
So here came Mitt Romney. Mitt is as far left as Rudy. In Taxachusetts, he was all in favor of abortion. His mandatory medical insurance there offers abortion for a mere $50 co-pay. He went far out of his way to advance homosexuality. Yes, he boasts about running the Olympics. He also excluded the Boy Scouts from participation because they refuse admission to known sodomites. Under his imprimatur, Taxachusetts schools inflicted sexual degeneracy on children too foul to describe here. See my book, Not Holier Than Thou. You have been warned.
As a candidate for the presidency, of course, he no longer supported all this. Now he was a family values guy, a conservative. Of course, the conspiracy for world government understood perfectly that this was a scam, just politics. Didnt Mitt appear before the Marxist Council on Foreign Relations? Isnt he by far the most handsome candidate? Tall, distinguished, beautifully spoken, wearing well-tailored suits, he even looks more like a President than anyone else.
But there were two problems. First, the people didnt buy Mitt either. Yes, he looks most presidential, but that is also the problem. He is a campaign poster, a cardboard man. There is nothing more to him than appearance. He will do and say whatever you want to hear to get where he is going. The conspiracy for world government ordinarily would find these qualities most attractive, but the second Romnoid problem is that they did not. Why?
All I can do is speculate. I do not believe religion was a factor to the conspirators, who regard religion as a joke. However different Mormonism is, they would not be troubled. They joke about the Mormon Mafia. More likely is the fact that the Cardboard Man did it all with his own money. He was not beholden to them. He could have been harder to control, maybe less loyal, than a true company man. Of course he would have collaborated, like Reagan. Remember, here I am merely speculating.
So, here comes an unlikely couple: John McCain and Mike Huckabee. Remember that just a couple of months ago, McCain was a drifting hulk, out of money, out of support. His campaign was over. Any day, we were expecting him to quit. Suddenly, hes baaaaaaack! He whips the Romnoid on Super Tuesday. Despite his millions and his protestations, Mitt is gone. How does that happen?
It happens after all the big world government newspapers endorse McClunk, almost at the same time, as if . . . as if . . . as if somebody up there had passed the word. It happens after Boosh Administration front men around the country, like Der Arnold in Kaleeforneeya, and the Lieberschmuck in Connecticut, endorse him. But of course that wouldnt be enough. Family values are still important to Americans and there is no voter dumb enough to connect family values to John McClunk. He says himself he has no interest.
So here comes Mike Huckabee. Mike has long been planning his campaign. He lost more than a hundred pounds for the purpose and wrote a book about it. Now he is presidentially svelte but he is still a fat man inside a thin man trying to get out. The day when a man the size of William Howard Taft could be elected is gone. There is a picture of Mike and sons, gross, distended bellies hanging out, smiling with self-satisfied delight like domesticated mastodons.
This is not a personal attack. Mike has advocated a federal ban on smoking. As President, would he endorse the campaign to ban obesity? The question is valid. By the way, this is not an invitation to generalize, but since we have already adopted Hitlers gun laws, it is not unreasonable to expect that we could adopt his smoking ban and maybe even his vegetarianism with svelte Mike as President.
What do we know about Mike Huckabee? He is a consummate campaigner. He loves it. He is very glib and can be utterly charming. Sadly, we know also that he is a low-class con man. His family values would consist of intensifying the nannification of the federal government, which already regulates your commodes and now wants to dictate your light bulbs.
Like Romney, he was something else as governor. You have seen him on You Tube advocating any and all taxes. He is a huge spender. He betrayed home-schoolers. He has done everything he could to expand the illegal alien invasion of our country. Now, like Mitt, he is born again (yes, a pun). Now he opposes all those things he did in Arkansas. He is a liar. He used to boast on stage that he was the only contestant with a theology degree. Now, we learn from his own staff that he has no such degree. He thinks God is a joke, a straight man in a comedy act. See my recent article on the subject.
And he says himself that the man who runs his foreign policy is Richard Haass, who just happens to be president of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Marxist group in New York that has been working for almost ninety years to destroy our independence and dissolve the united States in a world government. Which proves that Mike, like the others, is a tool of the conspiracy.
Huck handled the family values while McClunk did the war on terror, and together they brought Romney down. Feast your eyes among the wreckage on conservative talk radio. It universally hates McCain. It wanted the Ghoul. After the Ghoul bombed, it reluctantly supported Romney. Humbaugh even publicly endorsed him. Day after day, Hannitwerp, Hugh Blewitt, etc., harangued on his behalf. Correct me if I have missed something, but I dont see even one effect of all this. It was useless.
This does not mean, as some say, that conservative talk radio is finished. It isnt. It will continue as an utterly ineffectual oddity, its impotence irrevocably documented by its embarrassing failure to influence the vote even a tad. Hey, Great One! Youre a big dope! Get off my air!
Saps like Levin are now lamenting what is happening to the Party. It is happening because they have been supporting treason like NAFTA and Marxist candidates for years, candidates like Jorge W. Boosh. Remember that Humbaugh, exercising assigned host duties flawlessly, was a NAFTA champion and still has not repented. I get an intensely delicious feeling, knowing that at midnight or one a.m., or whatever, just before they hit the hay, Republicrud frauds like Laura, Medved, Humbaugh and Hugh, etc., are secretly reading all this. You know they cant resist reading this any more than you can.
By the way, all of this inspires me to return to the airwaves myself. As you may know, in one of my gigs, in Los Angeles, on a station with fewer than 1,000 watts, I went head to head with Larry King, on KNX, a 50,000 watt clear channel monster, and had almost twice as many listeners, according to Arbitron. Of course, that doesnt amount to much. A while back, Larry interviewed one of the surviving Beatles, but didnt know which one he was; called him by the wrong name. If you run a real network, with physical stations, and want to talk about it, let me know.
So, what happens now? What did McClunk promise the Huck? His fulsome praise Tuesday night proves he promised something. Was it vice president or something comparable? If so, expect the Huck to back off subtly. But with the departure of Mitt, Huck and McClunk no longer have a common enemy. Is the Huck so deluded he will go for the gold in the belief that he really could be President? Will he challenge his erstwhile benefactor?
There is also the possibility that the conspiracy for world government wants McCain to be the nominee because he would be so easy for Hillary to beat. McClunk is another candidate as far left as Karl Marx, but everyone, regardless of politics, pays deference to his war record. The problem is that there is proof on paper of the treason McCain committed in Hanoi, where he betrayed his fellow POWs, so he is not any kind of war hero, and you can be sure Hillary has it. It would be McClunks turn to be swift-boated, which would give Hill the extra benefit of posing as a patriot.
We are headed toward a choice between a traitor who could easily be a McChurian Candidate, a Womanoid (appears to be a woman, but isnt) whom I would not be surprised to hear has been a member of the Communist Party, and a man named Hussein, who was raised as a Muslim, belongs to a church loyal to Africa and is still another Marxist.
Meanwhile, I listened carefully all night but did not detect more than a whispered mention of Dr. Paul. If you are trying to be neutral, you could argue that because he did so poorly in most states, there was no journalistic reason to mention him. But, in Minnesota, he scored a respectable 15%, in North Dakota he did 22% and in Montana he did a staggering 25% - in a three-way race! It was at least a political oddity, yet still there was no more than a hint. Somebody tuning in for the first time to watch would probably wonder who this guy Paul with the 25% was.
So, what happens now? Remember, your ordinary candidate with Dr. Pauls numbers now would drop out. But Dr. No will not drop out. Why? As he has said many times, we, the precinct workers, not Dr. No, run the campaign. He runs at our pleasure. And we are directing him to stay in through the Convention. Dr. No is of course a true gentleman, a healer, meek, a gentle man. We, the campaign, are not. We are as mean as a mongoose with an attitude.
All kinds of things can happen from here to the Convention, especially if it is deadlocked. It is just possible that God will speak in the ear of the dumbest human species that ever walked the Earth the Religious Right and explain that Huck is a con man. Also, the Romney people hate Huckabee and McCain. Now that Mitt is dead meat because of them, where will they go? Dr. Ron will get some of them. He already has a few delegates. He could get more. But for anything to happen, he must be there.
The conspiracy for world government has already killed more than 100 million people. It is preparing to kill many more. Its goal is to kill a few billion. It wants the world and is now close enough to smell it. It is running naked to the finish. Did you really think it would go away just because an avuncular country doctor says it is unconstitutional?

Alan Stang was one of Mike Wallaces original writers at Channel 13 in New York, where he wrote some of the scripts that sent Mike to CBS. Stang has been a radio talk show host himself. In Los Angeles, he went head to head nightly with Larry King, and, according to Arbitron, had almost twice as many listeners. He has been a foreign correspondent. He has written hundreds of feature magazine articles in national magazines and some fifteen books, for which he has won many awards, including a citation from the Pennsylvania House of Representatives for journalistic excellence. One of Stangs exposés stopped a criminal attempt to seize control of New Mexico, where a gang seized a court house, held a judge hostage and killed a deputy. The scheme was close to success before Stang intervened. Another Stang exposé inspired major reforms in federal labor legislation.
His first book, Its Very Simple: The True Story of Civil Rights, was an instant best-seller. His first novel, The Highest Virtue, set in the Russian Revolution, won smashing reviews and five stars, top rating, from the West Coast Review of Books, which gave five stars in only one per cent of its reviews.
Stang has lectured in every American state and around the world and has guested on many top shows, including CNNs Cross Fire. Because he and his wife had the most kids in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic, where they lived at the time, the entire family was chosen to be actors in Havana, directed by Sydney Pollack and starring Robert Redford, the most expensive movie ever made (at the time). Alan Stang is the man in the ridiculous Harry Truman shirt with the pasted-down hair. He says they made him do it.

The Edge Series
Tell me what you need, Mr. George, she said, her sexy voice making his pulse race.
I need you.
The long sweep of her charcoal lashes cloaked the most gorgeous eyes. Blue like a freshwater lake beneath a glacier, vivid against her alabaster skin and jet black hair. Ripe in all the right places, her body should be replicated into a sculpture, or at least a blowup doll. With endless curves and slopes to make a man hungry for action, she defined a sex goddess. He even wanted to lick the glossy leather of the plain black heels encasing her tiny feet.
Brad ached for her so bad he could taste it. He wanted to be the man she rememberednot one she used and then discarded.
She taunted him with her sultry glances and sultry lips. Eyes closed, he pictured her never-ending thighs in sheer black stockings, tight skirt hugging her delicious body like a second skin. Every step she took made her calves bulge and flex. He wanted to lick her shapely legs all the way up. He imagined she would taste like heaven to a man burning in Hell.
He hated himself for needing her with such desperation. His madness was all her fault. She ignited it the moment she strutted into his lonely world.
Are you doing well, Mr. George? Her eyes glinted with sexual deviousness.
Hed give her what she craved and what he so desperately desired. He had to. His life hung by a thread over his lust for her.
Remain calm. Yes. Isnt that what you want to hear?

text: Jaguar's £700,000 hybrid supercar is a go Autopia 09 May 11 by Chuck Squatriglia Jaguar Jaguar has leapfrogged Porsche in the race to build the world's most expensive, if not extreme, hybrid.The venerable British automaker announced on Friday, 6 May that it is working with Williams F1 to develop the C-X75, the spectacularly gorgeous supercar that dropped jaws at the Paris auto show last fall. Jag promises a car as fast as it looks, claiming it will do zero to 60 in less than three seconds and top out north of 200 mph -- yet emit almost as little CO2 as a Toyota Prius."People expect Jaguar to be innovators. That is when Jaguar is at its best," Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's brand director, said in a statement. "The C-X75 received an incredible reception as a concept car. We've been building on that momentum and there is a clear business case for this exclusive halo model. No other vehicle will better signify Jaguar's renewed confidence and excellence in technological innovation than this."The C-X75 is the latest "green" supercar to come out of Europe, following the striking Porsche 918 plug-in hybrid and the Mercedes AMG SLS E-Cell and Audi e-Tron electric cars. It also promises to be the most expensive, coming in at £700,000, or about $1.1 million. That eclipses the Porsche 918 by 255 large.Williams F1 will assist with the aerodynamics, carbon-composite manufacturing and hybrid drivetrain -- skills it has honed during decades in Formula 1. Jaguar didn't offer any specs but said the C-X75 will feature "a highly boosted" gasoline engine and two electric motors for all-wheel drive. It will have an electric range of 50 kilometers (31 miles).Alas, the car will not feature the turbines shown on the concept, but Jag promises the production model will be every bit as sexy as the concept."We were always determined that the Jaguar C-X75 would be as striking on the road as it was in concept form," Ian Callum, design director at Jaguar, said in a statement. "This will be the finest looking and most innovative Jaguar ever produced. Even in the world of supercars, we can still produce the most beautiful."Jaguar said production will be limited to 250 cars.
