For petrolheads with more modest budgets, the hot hatch has long been the affordable dream.
Their powerful engines and uprated suspensions have provided adrenaline-fuelled driving excitement for decades.
The term hot hatch first appeared in the 1980s when the trend began for giving rather pedestrian three- and five-door family hatchbacks a grittier edge.
It was an instant hit and these racy machines have been a part of the landscape ever since. We count down six of the best.
It might not be the most beautiful car in its class but when it comes to performance and value for money then Suzuki's Swift Sport is pretty hard to beat.
With a 1.6 litre engine – and choice of three- or five-door models – it can hit 60 mph in a respectable 8.7 seconds and has a top speed of 121mph.
The cost, depending on the model chosen, is around £13,000 and for that you'll get loads of standard features, such as keyless entry and climate control.
This is what a modern-day hot hatch is all about. Tough styling married to a punchy 2.0 litre turbo engine, with terrific handling thrown in for good measure.
It has a rugged, muscular appeal with performance to back it up as it can carry you from 0-60mph in six seconds, up to a top speed of 158 mph.
The Mégane range has been earmarked to enjoy a major facelift soon but you can still get your hands on one of these handsome machines for around £26,000.
An often-overlooked member of the hot hatch family. The second generation Fiesta arrived in 1983 and the XR2 version of this car featured a stylish bodykit and a decent 1.6 engine.
Okay, it wasn't the fastest machine on the road but it certainly looked the part and was a lot of fun to drive.
There aren't many available these days although if you look carefully it's still possible to pick up a decent example for around the £3,000 mark.
In many people's eyes this is the original hot hatch. Volkswagen's beautiful Mk 1 Golf set the benchmark when it arrived at the back end of the 1970s.
It enjoyed mass-market appeal and was soon in a battle for supremacy with rivals from the likes of Ford, Peugeot, Renault and Vauxhall.
There are still some available for a few thousand pounds, although really good examples have been changing hands for an eye-watering £25,000.
If you want the edginess of a traditional hot hatch combined with the modern day creature comforts then the Ford Focus ST may fit the bill.
With its powerful 2.0 litre EcoBoost engine and various state-of-the-art features such as climate control and USB connectivity.
There are three versions available - ST, ST-2 or ST-3 – depending on how equipped you want it to be with prices ranging from £22,000 to £26,000.
Simply the granddaddy of hot hatches.
This car had it all: speed, style and handling – and it looks just as good today as it did back in 1984.
Available in both 1.6 and 1.9 versions, the 205 GTi was a smash hit although sales were hit in the early 90s as these fantastic machines were also popular with thieves and joy riders.
To relive these glory days will cost you between £2,000 and £20,000 – depending on how much love and attention it has enjoyed.

Theo Martins - For Helena
A representative of Rhode Island, Booth fave Theo Martins recently left his home state for the bigger pond that is Los Angeles. Inspired by the feeling of journeying into the unknown, the freestyle series alumnus has channeled his hopes, fear and anticipation into new mixtape leak For Helena—the first cut he recorded after the big move. Over Austin White's banging boardwork, sampled from indie-rockers Foster the People's Helena, Martins showcases his infectious, sung-rapped flows. If this exhilarating jam has you nodding along, then stay tuned; the artist's yet-untitled street album is scheduled to hit the 'net in the next couple weeks.

Liza, who has never been further than the nearest small town, ignores instructions, and runs to find Sean, the young estate gardener she's secretly been sleeping with, at his caravan. As they spend the autumn travelling around apple-picking and otherwise odd-jobbing, Liza tells Sean the story of her curious upbringing and her wonderful but just occasionally homicidal mother - now on remand, according to the papers. Uncertain how shocked he is going to be, she breaks it to him an episode at a time, 'like Sheherezade', she says. 'She-who?' says Sean.
Rendell fills us in on the same pattern, dialogue revelations in the caravan leading to old-fashioned flashback narrative. It is a very mechanical and artificial method of proceeding, often used by hack authors because of its possibilities for the calculated management of tension and often unsuccessful because of its formal obviousness. Still, Homer did something like it; and Rendell, though a bewilderingly prolific writer with a chokehold on station and airport bookstalls so lucrative that she is now a corporation for tax purposes, clearly counts as more than a hack. Despite our awareness of the creaky old ploy she makes it work like a charm.
The situation between teller and listener, Liza and Sean, really does call for a careful bit-by-bit approach. Liza, given an illegal but rigorous classical education by Eve, has never been to school or had any friends. Her TV-watching, all in the usually unoccupied big house on the estate, has been covert and patchy because Eve implicitly banned TV by omitting to mention its existence.
She has never been told who her father was, though she has her suspicions, which turn out to be dramatically off the mark. Her real name is Eliza and she wonders if Eve was thinking of Eliza Doolittle in Pygmalion. 'Come again?' says Sean. She explains. 'Sounds like My Fair Lady to me,' he says. She's never heard of that.
Eve's project was to make Eliza like herself as she 'should have been' but for an upset which she never mentioned and which Liza only discovers when the papers cover the trial. Eve's misdeeds anchor the structure but the book works as Bildungsroman rather than thriller, the fascination lying in the growth of Liza's mind under these unusual conditions. Since things are seen through a child's eyes we have the estate owner's corduroy trousers described as 'fawn stuff like the ribbing on a jumper' and a record noted as 'something called Mozart'. Talking to the reader over the character's head like this can become arch and faux-naif, and it does, but not to a ruinous extent. Rendell has a safe pair of craftsmanlike hands.
The Sheherezade motif hints ironically that here the listener may be in danger from the teller rather than the other way round. A specious way to crank up some ordinary plotty tension, it also contains something cleverer, a gradual intimation that even if this strange and appealing Liza were to go wrong in a murderous direction like her mother, we would still be in helpless sympathy with her. After which realisation it hardly matters in literary terms whether she does or not.
Rendell is not always this good: her last outing as Barbara Vine, King Solomon's Carpet, achieved an unintentional hilariousness with its catalogue of doom in West Hampstead, and she still shows scant sign of the sense of humour that novelists strictly need. The dialogue I've quoted is about the limit of it. Even so, The Crocodile Bird (Eliza pictures her mother and herself in symbiosis like the croc and the little bird it permits to pick its teeth unharmed) is a strong performance that should spoil the trains-and-planes readership rotten.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Is there a particular programming language that you wish to use?
There appears to be a PHP Class. You could also use something like libpurple to connect to the MSN network and download the list.
Officially the msn protocol isn't specified. But some people have been reverse enginering the protocol.
It's not an easy protocol, as you have to connect to several server before you have everything you need.
Note however that when microsoft changes the protocol again and drops old versions, you have to wait before the new protocol version is deciphered.

Another simple solution, e.g. when you get a new mac: Buy any product in iTunes 11 (maybe this also works with older versions, but I haven't tested). As soon as you are asked for security questions, "force quit" itunes. When you restart iTunes now, it will ask if you want to continue with the download of a previous purchase, click yes. iTunes will start with the download now, without asking for the security questions again.

Welcome To Screamscape!
If you're a theme park lover or enjoy the best thrill rides the world has to offer, you've found the right place.
From new ride announcements, construction reports and the latest rumors: Screamscape always has something new to report.
News & Rumors
Disney's Hollywood StudiosWalt Disney World
---- THE LATEST BUZZ ---- (4/22/16) New Star Wars Entertainment and Toy Story Land Details (4/16/16) New Themed Bar Planned for Tower of Terror Basement (MORE...) (4/14/16) Construction Update and Future Rumors (MORE...) (3/29/16) Premier Theater Demolition Photos (MORE...)
Ride Rehabs - The following information is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate. Pizza Planet - NOW CLOSED through to Late 2016Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Movie Set Adventure - Closed Permanently April 3Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show - Closed Permanently April 3
General Park News - (4/16/16) I'm not sure how accurate this rumor is but WDWNewsToday reports that Walt Disney World is moving ahead with an interesting plan to open a new themed bar in the bottom of the Twilight Zone: Tower of Terror attraction, near the gift shop. If I had to guess, I think the popularity of the last two adult lounge areas that Disney has opened in the past year, namely Trader Sam's at the Poly and the Jock Lindsey's Hanger Bar in Disney Springs, have now given them the fuel and the numbers to push ahead with more themed lounge areas, and surely putting one in the basement of the legendary Tower of Terror can only be a huge win for guests and Disney, as the place is not only going to sell themed drinks, but I'd be confident that we could have some special effects style mystical happenings going on around the lounge when specific drinks are ordered, much like what happens at Trader Sam's. Now I wonder if any drinks will open a hidden passage directly to the attraction's loading platform. Now that would be a great side benefit if you ordered a round of "Dimensional Portal" beverages for your party. (4/14/16) OrlandoParksNews heads into the Hollywood Studios park this week to check on the latest construction... and demolition taking place all around the park. They have also posted a picture of the updated park map on some of the construction walls and you can see just how much smaller the park looks right now, as all the closed areas have been removed from sight. While we're talking about the Studios... when are they going to finally rename this park anyway? Will they do it soon... or will they wait until the new Toy Story and Star Wars areas are finished? And speaking of expansions... the giant rumor mill is claiming that more money could be heading to the Studios in the future in the form of a $3 billion + capital budget Walt Disney World is rumored to have asked the board of directors for, to fund more expansions at the Studios, Magic Kingdom and Epcot, beyond the ones we already know about that are under-way. They figure it worked for California Adventure, so now Florida wants a shot. In the meantime, I'll see if I can dig up anything more solid on that rumor as well for a future update. (3/29/16) Demolition of the old Premier Theater has begun. You can see a few pictures of it posted to Twitter by LaughingPlace. (3/22/16) If you've heard something about a rumored plan to retheme the Tower of Terror to have a Guardians of the Galaxy theme, then yes... this is something that was discussed... but not for the Florida Tower of Terror. Or at least not in any heavy detail at this point... this is a proposal for the Tower of Terror attractions at Disney California Adventure and Walt Disney Studios Paris parks, and you can read more all about it (just in case they do opt to try it in Florida) on those respective pages. (2/27/16) In The Loop has posted their own video showing off the demolition progress of the old Catastrophe Canyon element from the old Backlot Tour as seen from the ground level and from the back of the LMA stadium. Demolition of the fake rockwork from the central setpiece is now being removed, exposing the hollow steel framework inside.
Spring/Summer 2016 - New Star Wars Entertainment - (4/22/16) A new Star Wars themed nighttime fireworks spectacular will begin at the park starting this June called "Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular". The show will feature themed fireworks, lasers, special effects, video projections of the iconic Star Wars characters and scenes from the entire saga, all set to the iconic score of the film series.
2016 - Toy Story Mania Expansion - Confirmed - (4/22/16) Look for the third ride track to be up and running around Memorial Day Wekeend. (2/22/16) Just a quick heads up to Midway Mania fans... Disney has announced an unexpected one-day closure to the attraction taking place on March 15th, likely to allow some needed work to be done to connect the existing attraction with the expansion (3rd track) that will open later this year. (3/6/15) Great news today, as the Disney Parks Blog confirmed our long standing rumor that Toy Story Midway Mania would be adding a third track system to increase the capacity of this very popular attraction. On the downside, even though construction has already started, they say it isn't expected to open until the "late 2016". If I had to bet… I'd say look for it to open around Oct. 1, 2016 are part of whatever 45th Anniversary Celebration they have planned. (3/4/15) For anyone wondering, I did get a confirmed eye report that construction on the Toy Story Midway Mania expansion track is well under way inside Soundstage 1. For all intents and purposed, the inside the building has been gutted and the first stages of construction for attraction expansion has begun. Now for all intents and purposes, keep in mind that this "expansion" is really going to be a completely independent new ride system, as I don't believe there is an way to connect the existing track to the new one, as the queue is in the way. There is a great drawing of the existing attraction layout posted to WDWNewsToday. Instead, I'd expect this new track to likely be put to exclusive use for the stand-by queue line, and leave the existing double-capacity version to service the FastPass crowd. Of course that may be wishful thinking, and Disney could choose to just route the crowds to either side as needed to handle the crowds. In either case, there is no word on just when they may be finished, though I'd hope by the end of the year if we're lucky. If anyone know more about the timeline, please do let me know. (9/18/14) While we've heard about the rumored expansion that could add another track to the Toy Story Mania dark ride at the Studios inside the Stage 1 area, the latest update at WDW News Today mentions that the temporary Wandering Oaken's Trading Post currently located on Stage 1 will be closed and removed after September 28th. Could this be to open up the space for this new construction project, or is it simply time for Oaken's to go? (7/8/14) DisneyAtWork.com claims that Disney may be ready to move ahead with plans to expand Toy Story Mania by adding another ride system that will be built inside the soundstage area next door in order to increase guest throughput. Even years after it has opened, Toy Story Mania still has the longest line in the park, with FastPass bookings filling up shortly after the park opens each day. So will it happen? I can say that I've heard this exact same rumor for years, on and off, as the site of the proposed expansion is often pitched to be used to build other ride concepts instead… ranging over the years from a Crush Coaster or Monster's Inc dark ride/coaster, only to be pondered to expand Toy Story Mania once again. While it would be a good idea to do this, I still have to wonder after all this time, if perhaps they couldn't find a way to increase the number of riders per vehicle instead. The Toy Story cars are quite bulky, and I've often wondered if they could redesign them to be more open and seat three across instead per row, though this would also likely result in them being forced to upgrade the games to handle the extra player as well.
???? - Toy Story Land - Confirmed - (4/22/16) Disney did give out new details for their upcoming Toy Story Land project. New concept art of the land featuring the new Skinky Dog Dash coaster attraction as well as the Alien Swirling Saucers was shown off. The coaster in particular looks pretty fun, as it takes a long ride all around the new land full of giant themed toy pieces. The coaster appears to be an entirely "launched" coaster experience rather that rely on any lift hills. You can see an early preview rendering of the ride posted below.
2020 - Star Wars Land - Confirmed - (2/24/16) I've got some new updates regarding the Star Wars Land attractions this week. For starters, one of our sources confirmed that despite the media reports mentioning it, the E-Ticket "Battle Ride" concept is not a boat ride. Instead, the ride will feature a trackless ride vehicle that will move about and through very detailed sets and props from the Star Wars universe, including countless Stormtrooper animatronic figures, as well as large scale Tie Fighter, X-Wing starfighters and much more.
???? - Parking Lot and Parking Toll Plaza Changes - Rumor - (10/29/15) ParkJourney has come across some new permits showing off just how Disney is planning to expand the boundaries of the Hollywood Studios theme park to cross over the current toll plaza and into the forest beyond, as well as build a new main entrance in and out of the theme park that will connect to Osceola Parkway. (7/25/13) An interesting article about the possible future changes coming to the Studios has been posted to DisneyAtWork this week. This seems to follow up on our previous rumor from March that major changes may be coming to the parking lot and toll plaza entry roads. According to this report the parking toll plaza off World Drive will close down entirely. The smaller entrance off Buena Vista Drive across from the Boardwalk will become a Bus only route, following the construction of a brand new entrance road and toll plaza off Victory Way, the road that runs from Buena Vista Drive down to the Pop Century and Disney's Art of Animation Resorts. If this is all true, freeing up the property along the World Drive Toll Plaza road will be enough to allow for decades of future expansion room at the Studios. (3/22/13) I'm not quite sure what is going on, but I've heard a few whispers coming in from the rumor mill claiming that there could be some kind of change coming to the road you use to enter the Studios in the near future. Of course, unlike the rest of the parks, Disney's Hollywood Studios actually has two entrance roads to their parking lot… the larger main road that exits right off World Drive for those coming to Disney World from the south or Tampa side of I-4, and then there is the smaller but more commonly used entrance located across Buena Vista Drive from Disney's Boardwalk Resort, which also serves as the only exit from the parking lot as well. I'm not sure which one may go under the knife, but if is the larger entrance, that could make for some interesting growth opportunities for the park. If anyone else knows more, please do let me know.
???? - New Park Name - Confirmed - (3/19/15) While there has been little said about what or when Disney's Hollywood Studios will get renamed, we do know tha a new name is coming, one way or the other. That said, it appears that Disney isn't even testing the Trademark waters just yet on this, as I poked around for new names and could find nothing out of the ordinary. So for the time being the possibility for new names is wide open… though with rumors of major new developments in the works that could see famous properties like Star Wars and Marvel brought into the mix, as well as big concepts like a Cars Land being floated around previously, I would think whatever new name they choose would try to project an image of the new adventures planned ahead. One other thing to consider is that Disney comes up with new ideas all the time, and they never throw them away, they just put them aside for another day. Over the years, many old ideas have been resurrected in one form or another, and it is possible that this could be the case again here. How so? Well, during the Q&A session with the stockholder last week the topic of building the long-in-development 3rd park at the Disneyland Resort came up, only to be squashed like a bug when they said they were not currently seeking to build a 3rd park in California at this time. (Note: they didn't say NEVER… just not right now… and I may have more on just why this was said at a later date…) According to the last rumors I had heard about the concept for the proposed 3rd Disneyland park, the overall theme of the park was to be all about 'Heroes and Adventure", featuring a number of heavily themed worlds to explore. The rumored concepts included building worlds from Star Wars, various Marvel based themes and even possibly importing the attractions under construction from Avatar into the project. In a way, the direction of this 3rd park sounds quite a bit like the direction where Disney may be trying to evolve Florida's Studios park into as well, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some kind of "Heroes and Adventure" themed concept put to use. This will take time… and while I don't think we'll see any kind of name change take place until Fall 2016 at the earliest, there may be one more interesting kink to work out before they can finalize their plans. This would revolve around the "M" problem… as Disney really wants to have the freedom to use the Marvel characters in Florida, and this means they will have to come to some kind of terms with Universal over their use. According to what I've heard over the years, while Universal's use of the Marvel characters at Islands of Adventure does not have a hard expiration date, it does have renewal dates built in at 10 year intervals where the cost of keeping the Marvel characters at IOA does increase, and where the terms of the deal can be renegotiated in the interest of both parties. While Islands of Adventure opened in 1999, the deal would have been signed many months before… estimated to be somewhere in the range of 12-18 months before the park opened. In other words, Disney and Universal are going to be meeting to discuss the terms of the next renewal in the 2017/2018 timeframe. Looking back, Disney has also been able to negotiate some incredible deals to regain almost all of the Marvel character rights that had previously been scattered out to the various studios. The only characters still outside the realm of Disney / Marvel's feature film control to date are the X-Men and Fantastic Four franchises which are being held in a death grip by Fox, but once again Disney put their magic-mojo to work and reached an epic deal with Sony that will allow them to bring Spiderman back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, while still keeping Sony involved in the franchise. I've said this before many times, but a similar style Win / Win deal can easily be established between Universal and Disney that would allow Universal to continue to keep the Marvel Super Hero Island at IOA intact for at least another decade or more at a reasonable rate, while allowing Disney free reign to begin using more of the characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the Walt Disney World parks. Allowing Universal to keep their attractions really wont hurt their efforts at the Disney parks in my opinion, as most of the characters put to use in the attractions at Universal are Spider-Man (Sony), X-Men and Fantastic Four (Fox) related anyway, with the sole exception being the use of the Incredible Hulk as the theme for the roller coaster, where Disney could let them keep it, or ask them to repaint it and theme it to another character, such as the Silver Surfer (which was the original intended theme anyway…) It is also a good idea to keep in mind that while Universal and Disney are in competition on the theme park and movie studio side of things, Universal is owned by Comcast, who also has a very good reason to try and keep a good relationship between Disney as a key content provider for programming (ABC, ESPN, Disney Channel, etc…) used in the Comcast cable empire. If a Win / Win style deal can be made, I'd count on seeing a Marvel presence at the Disney Studios park (whatever they choose to call it) as part of the transformation and new brand. (3/13/15) I've been hearing this rumor on and off for awhile (see 10/28/14 update below), but Disney's CEO just confirmed to shareholders on Thursday afternoon that the Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park would be getting a name change in the future. This would be the 3rd name for the park... which is kind of unique for a Disney park to change names, but it started life out in 1989 at Disney-MGM Studios before changing the name in 2008. Stay tuned! (10/28/14) The local news confirmed late last week from Walt Disney World that more changes are on the way to the Studios park. The biggest one you will notice will be the removal of the giant Sorcerer Mickey hat icon that was added back during the 100 Years of Magic celebration. For most of you, this will be a good thing, as the icon sometimes referred to as the BAH (Big Ass Hat) has been considered as an eyesore by many WDW purists who preferred the original look of the park, featuring the iconic Chinese Theater building that houses the Great Movie Ride. For others, who didn't start enjoying trips to Walt Disney World until after the hat was put in place back in late 2001, the removal of the hat may be a big uncomfortable, as they have grown to see it as the icon of the park over the past 13 years. To be fair… as hard as it is to believe for some, the hat has been in the park longer now than it hasn't. I'm looking forward to seeing the park without the hat once again myself, but then again I first started going to WDW back in 1990 when the Studios were still only a year old. In addition to the BAH heading off to Neverland sometime in early 2015, The Legend of Captain Jack Sparrow walk-through attraction at the Studios will also close down for good after Nov. 6th, 2014. Add both of these with all the other closing we've seen lately (Backlot Tour, American Idol, etc…) as well as all the rumored major makeovers and new additions being looked as for future additions and a new rumor is starting to surface. According to the early rumbling, Disney management may be planning a massive makeover of the entire park, similar to what was done to California Adventure, but this one may even bring about a new name for the park as well. As I said before, I first came to WDW back during the MGM name era, and to be honest, I've never liked "Disney's Hollywood Studios" as the name for the park. It seems a bit wordy and a little confusing. I was never sure why they didn't follow Paris' lead and simply called it "Walt Disney Studios" but I think I'd be down for a new park name. Since it seems that the focus of the rumored renovations will be to create more themed lands and adventures, and move away from the movie studio backlot theme, then a new title may be a great idea. That's still just a rumor at this point, but it seems clear than big transformations are on the way, so it will only be a matter of time before we find out what form they will take.

As I deal with the nightmare of trying to get back to Connecticut in the aftermath of this latest winter blast, here's my quick take on the Texas-Texas Tech game I did color for last night:
First off, Texas was very impressive in its 83-52 romp at Texas Tech on Tuesday. The Longhorns beat the Red Raiders in essentially every facet of the game, especially effort, which is huge for both teams. By that I mean Texas never took its foot off the pedal at the defensive end, and though the offense was fairly rudimentary, the emphasis on defensive intensity from Barnes and his staff translated on the floor.
UT freshman Cory Joseph was the only player on either side to hit a 3-pointer (he made three of them), as Texas simply threw the ball inside or scored on second shots the entire game, piling up 50 points in the paint. Up 25, Jordan Hamilton took a 3 in which he was not open, and it was on his first touch of the offense. Barnes pulled him and he responded without a hint of pouting and when he returned he scored at will, within the confines of the Horns' offense.
As for Texas Tech, that group is simply in bad shape right now. This senior-led team with John Roberson and Mike Singletary simply cannot hit jump shots and the ball does not move side to side in the TTU motion offense. It's almost like the Red Raiders have a "two or three pass and shoot" rule, and though they have some talent, the losses seem to be weighing on their mentality.
All in all, Texas looked the part of a dynamic defensive team with length, strength and athleticism, with the only question mark being 3-point shooting. The Red Raiders? They looked like a beaten team who needs to get a win against a weakling in order to regain their confidence.

It's not an emoticon; only a very silly person would suggest otherwise.
It is clearly a parenthetical comment, with a semicolon to indicate a pause in the clause.
I'm here at TED2009, sitting next to Jennifer 8. Lee, a reporter and blogger for the New York Times. She showed me this image from an 1862 scan of a Lincoln speech that appears to contain an emoticon.
In the transcription of President Lincoln's speech, which added comments about applause and shouts from the audience was this line:
"… there is no precedent for your being here yourselves, (applause and laughter ;) and I offer, in justification of myself and you, that I have found nothing in the Constitution against."
Bryan Benilous, who works with historical newspapers at Proquest, said the team felt the ";)" after the word "laughter" was an emoticon, more than a century before emoticons became a widespread concept.
Could it be? Was this just a typo, a mistake, or was the reporter, transcriber or typesetter having a bit of sly fun?
In 2014, Allie Brosh's outstanding, hilarious, and gut-wrenching webcomic Hyperbole and a Half made the jump to print with an incredible book (review); now Simon and Schuster have announced a followup, Solutions and Other Problems, to be published next October — I just pre-ordered my copy!

It's not an emoticon; only a very silly person would suggest otherwise.
It is clearly a parenthetical comment, with a semicolon to indicate a pause in the clause.
It's an orthography error.
Before the semi-colon dropped out of general use, it was used to separate the items on a list. I suspect the reporter got confused by the "and" that followed the (applause and laughter) stage direction and used it as a sort-of Oxford Comma. At which point the usual confusion about what to do when there's two consecutive punctuation marks kicked in and he made the wrong decision.
Notice how the second time there's a stage direction, he makes the peculiar decision to put the period inside the bracket instead of outside it. I suspect he wasn't aiming for "one-eyed smiley pirate emoticon" there.
Karl Jones is correct. It was quite common at that time to include a comma or semicolon before the closing parenthesis if the clause's grammar suggested it.
It was a transcript of the speech written after the fact. How exactly would you convey an emoticon in a live performance? Is someone suggesting that Lincoln conspicuously smiled and winked at the audience, and this is how the stenographer recorded it?
(applause and laughter ;)
That's not an emoticon.
Oh GMAFB.
Are the qualifications for working with historical papers limited to "can surf web", "2+ years IM, MSN or AIM preferred" and "can use scanner and view images on computer"???
I wonder what the experts think of that mysterious "(" emoticon earlier in the text. Perhaps it is symbolic of an umbrella or shield (President as protector)? After all cultural concepts change over time. I know this because I am a Historical Expert, having lived through some of it and also read stuff in books and online.
I don't think there would be any confusion or debate if the stenographer had not put an unnecessary space after the word "laughter" as s/he does throughout. Still, kinda fun to point out, though clearly unintentional.
it is CLEARLY an emoticon ;)
It is clearly a numerical middle name.
The same thing appears at least once in the King James Bible.
For it to be an emoticon, there would have to be a lack of opening parenthesis. This is merely a case of meta-pareidolia.
The evidence that it isn't, is that the next parenthetical phrase ends in ".)". It's just a punctuation mark followed by a closed-parenthesis.
Clearly the person seeing the emoticon is projecting.
Obviously, the transcript is an early troll.
Countdown 3… 2… 1….
to inevitable Laugh-Out-Loud Cats reference
I don't think there would be any confusion or debate if the stenographer had not put an unnecessary space after the word "laughter" as s/he does throughout.
Well, technically that would have been the typesetter.
Everyone is missing the obvious answer here: the reporter was merely a time traveler.
Help, I'm an time traveler internet addict trapped in a Lincoln speech
I want to know what "8." abbreviates in the reporter's name. Is "8." an abbrevemoticon?
Yeesh, if that guy really works for Proquest, and if he was serious, my estimation of Proquest just took a nose-dive. I say that as a historian *and* as someone with two brain cells to rub together.
Nicholson Baker wrote an interesting essay in the *the Size of Thought* covering "The History of Punctuation" including an archaic preference for combining the semicolon with a dash.
Brainspore: Perhaps it was an Irish typesetter. ;)
Note the extra space given before the colon in the top line. This was common practice at the time.
The same is being done for the semicolon in the alleged "emoticon", creating the crosstime illusion of relevance.
Please tell me this is not what Google Books has come to.
#10 is right, there sure are some of these in the King James bible – I found this one a little while ago and it always tickles me!
Lincoln is trolling the grammar nazis ;)
<----------- You must be this smart to post to BB.
@#25 Action Ben:
Total. Fucking. Win.
That's the greatest thing ever!
Imagines Lincoln winking alla Palin / Shudders…
A space before a double punctuation mark ( ; : ! « » etc) and no space before a single one ( . , ) is still standard practice in French.
I remember sitting in a lecture in France where students were being warned of errors to avoid when writing up essays on a computer. One error would be to have the opening or closing quotation marks separated from the quotation by a line break. [We were instructed to use a non-breaking space between the quotation marks and the quotation to prevent this.]
Unlike some of the above posters, I will give everyone involved in this OMG EMOTICON! excitement the benefit of the doubt and assume they have a sense of humour.
For those of you who are relying solely on the fact that there is an opening bracket to discount the time-travelling-emoticon theory, isn't it normal enough, if you want to put a smilie at the end of a parenthetical remark, to put the closing bracket to this double use (it avoids giving your smilie a double chin :))
There's an xkcd that may be relevant:
This may actually be a clever way to use a smiley face in his speech. It is an odd coincidence that is is used with something that is mean to be taken as a joke. It is true that it has been used in the past in almost identical scenarios (at the end of a phrase within a parenthesis). But what makes this unique is the space before the semicolon. This would be an incorrect use of it. It may be a typo, or it may be a clever smiley face. We will just have to wait for resurrection technology to ask zombie Lincoln ourselves.

The final battle of Fedor and Big Nog
on 7/8/2011
This was the card that held one of the biggest fights in MMA history. Fedor battling Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira was a title unification that was held to end the ambiguity from their no contest at a previous event. Also on this card was a rare fight in which two Olympic Gold Medalists fought. Rulon Gardner (wrestling and of biggest loser fame) took on Hidehiko Yoshida (Judo). Another great Pride card.

Nibble, Nibble
By MOLLY O'NEILL
Published: December 29, 1996
Glitz and glitter, caviar and champagne are to New Year's Eve what coals are to New Castle. If, by the final day of December, your taste for traditional holiday indulgences has not been satisfied, chances are it never will. Such is the fate of any luxury that becomes routine.
Generally, what you need is an antidote. A tonic to revive a spirit dulled by too much of a good thing. In these situations, the appetite turns to dishes that require some puttering and simmering. All the better if such food delivers some folk wisdom as well.
One friend swears that hoppin' John, the Southern dish with black-eyed peas traditionally served on the first day of the year, is the only way to indemnify oneself against misfortune. He who eats it, he says, is humble enough to deserve a break. If that's true -- and there are those who say the pea's round shape makes it lucky, an ancient superstition -- then there's plenty of lowly, round-shaped food that can redress the holiday imbalance: beans and pasta, veggies and flat breads and the truly humble cut of meat like a lamb or beef shank.
From a cook's point of view, a simple, rustic New Year's party makes perfect sense. An assortment of small dishes that can be nibbled over hours to create the effect of a long meal gives the party its own momentum. The fact that the dishes in the menu below are round or roundish was really coincidental, the result of trying to find contrasting flavors while striking a homey note: chicken wings stuffed with fresh goat cheese; raw fennel that you dip in a warm, pungent garlic oil; Thai crab cakes; skewers of spicy shrimp and dates; white-bean croquettes; lamb won tons made with coriander and cinnamon; tomato-cumin bread.
All of these dishes can be prepared ahead of time and kept in a 200-degree oven. Or they can be prepared in batches and served fresh. Or they can be served all at once on a groaning board -- none will be completely dismal at room temperature. Also, it might be a good idea in a down-home meal like this to flout the obvious, using one's finest china and crystal to create a sense of sophisticated dissonance -- or at the very least, a conversation opener.
In any event the cook, who has herself been turning round and round, frying and baking, kneading and broiling, should find a way to cease this frenzied activity once the guests have arrived. The pleasure and bonhomie that come from a sturdy little New Year's menu should absolutely be shared by the dervish in the kitchen.
And finally, those who believe that they are what they eat should take comfort in foods as complex and interesting as these, for they bode well for a piquant year to come. Everybody else, of course, will just appreciate the unusual flavors.
Chicken Wings Stuffed With Chevre
6 ounces goat cheese, softened
2 scallions, finely chopped
24 chicken wings
3 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, minced
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil.
1. Stir together the cheese and scallions. Separate the wings at the joint and save the tips for another purpose, like making soup. Loosen the skin over the tops, making a pocket between the skin and the meat. Fill each pocket with about 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture. Do not overfill.
2. Combine the garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper and oil in a large bowl. Add the wings and coat well. Refrigerate for several hours, or up to one day.
3. Preheat the broiler. Broil the wings until the skin is browned and the chicken is cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Yield: Twelve servings.
Garlic Oil With Fennel and Parmesan
1 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
6 small fennel bulbs, trimmed and thinly sliced
6 ounces Parmesan cheese, shaved.
1. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add the remaining oil. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in the salt. Strain the oil into a fondue pot and keep hot.
2. Arrange the fennel on a platter. Let guests dip the fennel into the oil and top with a wafer of shaved Parmesan.
Yield: Twelve servings.
Thai Crab Cakes
1 pound lump crab meat, picked over for shells
2 cups cooked basmati rice, cold
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil.
1. In a large bowl, gently combine the crab meat, rice, jalapenos, lemon zest, basil and mint. Carefully stir in the salt, the pepper, the eggs and the bread crumbs, leaving the crab in fairly large lumps. Using 1 tablespoon of the mixture for each cake, press into croquettes that are about 2 inches in diameter.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the cakes until nicely browned and firm, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Add more oil to the skillet as needed between batches. Serve hot.
Yield: Twelve servings.
White-Bean Croquettes
3 19-ounce cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
3 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
9 tablespoons plus 3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into about 42 1/4-inch cubes
12 sun-dried tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
Vegetable oil for deep frying.
1. Puree the beans, garlic, salt and pepper in a food processor. Stir in 9 tablespoons of bread crumbs and refrigerate several hours, until firm.

Verizon's Net Neutrality Battle With the FCC Not About Free Speech
TheStreet) -- Verizon (VZ - Get Report) and the Federal Communications Commission are poised to re-open a debate on net neutrality, or the ability for Internet service providers to prefer some users over others, in a court battle that could have big implications for media industry upstarts like Netflix (NFLX - Get Report), Google (GOOG), Amazon (AMZN) and Pandora (P - Get Report). Net neutrality is considered by freedom of speech advocates to be the lynchpin of fair Internet access in the U.S., allowing for equal treatment among Web sites irrespective of their size or the services they offer. Charging for broadband data usage could give rise to a media industry where only the richest content providers have the ability to make their voices heard, some freedom of speech advocates argue.While Verizon's court battle with the FCC does have clear freedom of speech implications, in the near-term the biggest issues of the case are likely to be economic. Cable and telecom giants such as Verizon believe they should have a say on how to charge for data after spending billions of dollars to build out high speed nationwide Internet service. Verizon is challenging a 2010 Open Internet Order ruling by the FCC, which said that Internet service providers could not block or discriminate against Web traffic, ultimately giving all sites equal access to the Internet. For high users of Internet data such as Netflix, Amazon and traditional broadcast and cable channels, the decision has allowed them to build out streaming video services and dominate Web data usage on most nights. An overruling of the FCC's Open Internet Order could pave the way for ISPs such as Verizon and AT&T (T) to charge high users of broadband data, in a move that could pose a threat to the fast growth of streaming media services. The prospect that a Federal Court overturns the FCC's order could also shut the agency out from regulating competitive dynamics within the broadband market. "[The] case has the potential to open a Pandora's box of cable and telecom issues, from who pays what to whom for transport to whether it is or isn't anti-competitive for cable operators to impose usage caps and charge for usage," Craig Moffett, co-head of research firm MoffettNathanson wrote in a Sept. 6 note. He expects the FCC will lose, given the precedent set by an appeal filed by cable giant Comcast (CMCSA) against its order in 2010. The FCC will argue that broadband falls within its jurisdiction because the commission is responsible for a timely deployment of broadband service, according to Moffett. That would contrast to previous instances where the FCC was seen as looking for a way to use its purview over the telecom industry to impose price regulation on the broadband services. If the FCC loses, it raises the prospect of a re-pricing of broadband data that could pose a threat to streaming video services. Recently, some have speculated that a possible wave of cable industry mergers could be the precursor to tiered broadband pricing. Usage-based pricing could undermine the business models of high intensity video services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime. "As we've argued many times before, Net Neutrality was never really about the high minded principles of non-discrimination and First Amendment censorship. It is about who pays what to whom," Moffett wrote.NEW YORK (

But yesterday, in Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Newcastle, we got another glimpse into what Suarez would be like if the scales tipped firmly in the favour of 'unplayable genius' rather than 'dastardly rogue'.
Sure, there were a few indignant gestures to the referee - Suarez without those would be like Eric Cantona without the upturned collar - but this was a performance of sheer class, a display that reminded us once again why he is worth all the trouble.
The masterpiece was of course his equaliser in the second half. Like everyone else, Early Doors sat agog as Suarez nonchalantly controlled a 60-yard pass on his shoulder like he was plucking an apple from a low-hanging branch, gave Tim Krul the swerve and tapped the ball home for one of the goals of the season so far.
This was a goal worthy of Cantona or Dennis Bergkamp. It genuinely was astonishing given the technical ability and poise required to pull it off. Suarez at his absolute best: a mixture of instinct and execution. And despite the reservations you may have about Suarez the man, it was a triumph for Suarez the footballer.
In fact the whole game played to his beat. After his goal he carved out chance after chance for his team-mates but sadly for Liverpool Raheem Sterling and Jonjo Shelvey lacked his class. The two young Englishmen are two much more likely candidates for Brendan Rodgers's infamous envelopes of shame.
Meanwhile, Suarez's relentless darting runs put Newcastle's defence on the verge of a nervous breakdown, before Fabricio Coloccini completely lost his mind. Compared to Bobby Moore recently by his manager, his apparent attempt to remove Suarez's leg below the knee was more reminiscent of the Ron 'Chopper' Harris brand of retro defending. What it certainly did demonstrate was that Suarez had mentally defeated him, his unbridled energy and drive gradually eroding Coloccini's composure.
Suarez is capable of inflicting that kind of mental disintegration, and as such it's not hard to see why Liverpool fans love him. In fact, the way they embrace him despite all his faults reminds ED of a famous quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt. When the 32nd American President was describing a Central American dictator, he admitted: "He might be a bastard, but he's our bastard."
Rodgers was rather less qualified with his praise for the striker on Sunday evening:
"Luis is an absolute joy to work with," he said. "He's aiming to get better every day he trains and he is still a young player. He's committed his best years to us here, which is brilliant. He just has a real hunger for the game.
"We play him in that false number nine role. He is not your traditional number nine who stands up there, stood static. That's why when we get a number of players in who can work off his qualities it is going to make us a real threat and allow us to penetrate behind him.
"When Coloccini got sent off he was frustrated. Coloccini is a good defender, he's been a great player over a few years for Newcastle but Luis is so bright, so clever. He's a real world class striker and on that form today he really provokes and frustrates defenders."
It is no surprise that Rodgers is so effusive when discussing Suarez. After all, the Uruguayan is pretty much the only player sparing him from outright disaster at present. With 10 goals in all competitions he is Liverpool's outstanding player, not that the competition is particularly tough in a season that has proved hugely frustrating yet again for the club's supporters.
Though he must share the blame with Kenny Dalglish - the man whose awful use of resources has left Liverpool scrabbling around and unable to buy Clint Dempsey - Rodgers has contributed significantly to a rather worrying stat for Liverpool. They have secured only three home wins in the league in 2012 - the joint-lowest in their history along with 1939 when, of course, the league was curtailed by war. In 2012 they have 29 points from 29 games - relegation form.
Given the hole Liverpool would be in without him, for Rodgers, the Suarez positives certainly outweigh the negatives. The question now is whether he can curb the more offensive aspects to his nature and accentuate the genius he possesses, of whether, like Wayne Rooney, it is generally accepted by the amateur psychologists we all are that to remove one side of his personality would be to remove it all, rendering him ineffective and lobotomised.
Because at the moment, watching Suarez play is like ordering a gourmet soup knowing that at one point during the process of eating the thing you are going to accidentally slurp on a stray, suspiciously curly hair. A fear of imminent disgust lurks every time he takes to the pitch.
Yesterday was a reminder of what he could be without all the histrionics, the attitude and the lingering stench of his failure to apologise for racially abusing Patrice Evra. But maybe that's just what makes up Luis Suarez, the most polarising footballer in English football.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "I never got anywhere near the last year of my contract. You don't let them go into their last year and run their contract down. It's about winning, and how do you win? You have the best players, and if you keep selling your best players you're not going to win. If you sell your best players you're not going to challenge for titles. There's been so many players who have moved on and are doing great jobs for other teams, the list is endless." - Tony Adams gets to the nub of Arsenal's problems following a 2-1 loss at Manchester United.
FOREIGN VIEW: Diego Milito scored twice as Internazionale came from behind to win 3-1 at Juventus, ending the Serie A leaders' 49-match unbeaten run in the league. Juve, who had not lost in nearly two years, were looking to better Arsenal's 49-match streak from their 'unbeatable' spell in 2004. But despite taking the lead through an offside Arturo Vidal goal, the Bianconeri could not resist a superb Inter side, who had their own run to extend — their ninth win in a row.

Pretty good!

Great product!

Mario Manningham scored go-ahead touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10 and again in the NFC Championship Game.
If those plays did not get the 49ers' attention, Manningham's clutch 38-yard reception to sustain the winning touchdown drive in Super Bowl XLVI surely did.
The 49ers' contract agreement with Manningham came as the receiver market was drying up Saturday. It also kept Manningham from signing with an upcoming 49ers opponent. Manningham, 25, visited the St. Louis Rams after meeting with the 49ers.
San Francisco has now added Randy Moss and Manningham to a position that had subtracted Josh Morgan. The 49ers now have Michael Crabtree, Moss, Manningham, Kyle Williams, John Matthews, Joe Hastings, Dontavia Bogan and Kyle Nelson at the position.
Adding Moss and Manningham gives the 49ers flexibility heading into the draft. They should face less pressure to add a receiver in the first round.
The Scouts Inc. report on Manningham heading into the 2011 season said he "runs well but is quicker than fast and gets separation out of his break points with great burst and agility. ... He isn't a physical blocker but is effective at walling off on the perimeter. Manningham is a good, young receiver with big-play ability."
The 49ers will presumably have the 6-foot, 185-pound Manningham work on the blocking part. Morgan was a ferocious blocker for years. Crabtree developed into one last season.
Manningham agreed to a two-year deal. That indicates the 49ers got him at a reasonable price. Most big-money deals run longer, allowing teams to spread out the salary-cap impact.

Microsoft and Intel have completely missed the boat on Windows 8 tablets. If you observe how they are positioning them, the first Surface Pro is thick heavy and more importantly relies on the use of a keyboard to comfortably run the touted legacy apps. Therefore, in terms of how it will be used, it's very much like a laptop and very little like a tablet ala the iPad or Android tablets. Therefore, with the Windows 8 line of tablets, at best they're going to get laptop users to replace their laptops but they are going to make zero dent on the burgeoning thin and light and simple tablet market. They're basically trying to push the old Windows world which ran on laptops down onto tablets. I think they're wasting their time.
From ARM's standpoint, this means tablets as the rest of the industry defines them are going to continue to be predominantly ARM.
People want a keyboard for real computer work (INTC/MSFT legacy programs). They want a tablet for playing. Surface and the other INTC tablets and convertibles give them both. Starting in the 3rd quarter, the battery problem is gone. By the end of this year, ARMH in tablets will be gone.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
That's a problem. Jack of all trades master of none. These tablets are already uncomfortable and the Surface Pro will feel like #$%$ in actual use. An ultrabook is much better. Sits on your lap.
People don't want a tablet for "real computer work" they would rather use a laptop specially if there's no cost advantage which there isn't. No one want to do real computer work anymore. People like their computers simple.

Q&A: How FDR Built Today's Tax SystemHistorians in the News
tags: WSJ, FDR, taxes, income tax, Joseph Thorndike
A new book, Their Fair Share: Taxing the Rich in the Age of FDR, explores how the modern progressive income tax emerged from the Great Depression and World War II. Washington Wire posed a few questions to its author, historian Joseph Thorndike, who is director of the Tax History Project at Tax Analysts, a visiting scholar at the University of Virginia, and a fellow of the George W. Bush Institute.
What gave you the idea for this book?
It's hard to work in Washington without developing a more-or-less permanent sense of déjà vu. That's especially true when it comes to tax policy, where so many of today's arguments are just retreads of yesterday's. I wanted to search out some of these earlier debates, since I think they have a lot to tell us.
But why the Roosevelt years?
The tax system we have today is basically the same one FDR built during the 1930s and 1940s. He had a lot of help, of course, especially from Congress. But FDR's decisions – and his ideas about fairness – are very much with us today....

Sorry for the dumb question but the hardest part about surfing in the winter is getting my wetsuite on and off. Are there any tips or tricks on getting out to make it easier.

plastic bags to get it on, take it off in the shower
what kind of suit? Is it ziperless? Some people put bags on their hands and feet to help slide them through (sweat) but I've never done that.
Step by Step:
work with a dry suit if possible
put right leg in and push down as far as possible into leg hole
same for left leg
bend over and roll/fold up ankles of the suit and then pull around heel
pull suit up to wais and adjust knee pads. Make sure everything is snug
put right arm in arm hole fold/roll up wrist of suit and push hand through
same for left arm
adjust elbows and make sure shoulders are snug
zip and velcro
taking it off
do the opposite of what you did to put it on.

With my front zip I kinda reach inside and pull the waist up threw the opening making the it easy to get waist in . In the winter I wear Polypro sock under my 7 mil boots so getting my feet thew is easy.
I boot my boots on like mentione earlier. they I just pull the suite up evenly and work one arm in then the other the work it evenly up over my shoulders.
With gloves the Plasitc bag trick works great. I just roll my sleeves up the put my gloves on then roll them down one at a time.
getting it off the the same just in reverse order. Take your time and remove it evenly and it wont be so hard to get off . Your you cant just wait til you get home in the shower aswell

just figure it out and do the best you can.
wetsuits suck.
