Swedish is cool
Swedish is cool
Well, that was a pretty good film, besides the rather disturbing rape scene... xP
Hahahaha it was!
Next week is the second movie and then my school will show the third movie the week after.
The original Swedish films were made in 2009. All three of them. (released months apart of course)
Hollywood needs to get on Sweden's level.
i saw the first two in swedish. havent seen finchers one yet.
I guess the endings are different between the movies because all the Swedish version showed was Mikael (amusingly) finding out that Lisbeth had withdrawn the money and then showing her enjoying her new-found wealth.
Yeah in the book she does find Blomkvist with another chick and is enraged but I forget the ending of the movie.
every time i read the title of this tread i think it says "watchin a swedish fish"
just sayin....

Gainesville, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - Michael Frazier had 21 points, Dorian
Finney-Smith scored 14 and No. 7 Florida beat Georgia, 72-50, to set a program
record with its 25th straight home win.
Will Yeguete added 12 points and Patric Young had 10 for the Gators (14-2, 3-0
SEC), who got their eighth win in a row overall despite missing leading scorer
Casey Prather, who sat for a second straight game with an injured knee.
Juwan Parker led Georgia (8-7, 2-1) with 13 points and Marcus Thornton scored
Prather also missed Saturday's game against Arkansas, when Scottie Wilbekin
forced overtime with two seconds left and the Gators went on to squeeze out a
two-point win.
Florida coach Billy Donovan said Prather's absence hurt his team's depth in
the Arkansas game, but the Gators had little trouble in their 12th straight
win over Georgia.
Donovan said the players who have won 25 straight home games for the Gators
"obviously did some really special things."
"These guys haven't won national championships, but they've done some special
things as well and I'm proud of them," he said. "It's a good milestone.
Anytime you can do something for the first time in school history, it's always
nice. But like I said on Monday, we're 0-0 in playing our game here at home,
and you've got to just go out and play."
They scored 13 straight points to turn an early two-point deficit into a 17-6
lead midway through the first half. Frazier, Finney-Smith and Wilbekin each
made a 3-pointer during the surge and the Gators were 11-of-26 from beyond the
arc in the game.
They pushed their lead to 20 points inside the five-minute mark on Finney-
Smith's dunk and led by 20 at halftime, 36-16, after holding the Bulldogs to
just 31.6 percent shooting.
"Really the game was decided in the first half in our lack of poise
offensively," said Georgia coach Mark Fox. "That lack of composure really
allowed Florida to build a lead."
Georgia got as close as 14 after that on a Thornton layup with 11:37 left in
the game.
Frazier then scored 14 of his 21 points during a 25-8 run -- including 12 on
3-pointers -- as Florida took a 31-point lead, its largest of the game, with
three minutes left.
Game Notes
The Gators shot 46.3 percent and forced 15 Georgia turnovers ... Wilbekin had
seven points ... For the first time since 1943-44, Florida and Georgia will
not meet twice in the regular season ... Prather averages 17.0 points per game
... Florida's last loss was to Connecticut on Dec. 2.

WASHINGTON - The Senate voted Monday to approve a $50.5 billion emergency aid bill for victims of Hurricane Sandy, three months after the storm began pounding the Northeast.
"I am so glad that we are finally coming to a moment where we can get relief to New Jersey families," Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey said.
The vote was 62-36. The bill now goes to President Obama for signing.
Monday's action brings the total amount of Sandy aid approved by Congress to $60.2 billion. That includes $9.7 billion the House and Senate approved on Jan. 4 to pay flood insurance claims related to the storm.
Senators defeated an amendment from Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah that would have offset the $50.5 billion in emergency aid by making across-the-board reductions in discretionary spending over nine years.
The measure received 35 votes, well short of the 60 it needed to pass.
Lawmakers from New Jersey and New York decried attempts to offset the aid money and took to the Senate floor to urge colleagues to approve the aid. Congress usually approves such funding by large bipartisan majorities within days or weeks of a disaster.
"These are not just dollars and cents, these are people," Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York said. "Please, we have waited 91 long days. We can't wait any longer."
Menendez noted that only 118 days remain until Memorial Day, when the summertime tourist season traditionally begins on the Jersey Shore. He called the delays in Sandy aid "unprecedented."
Lawmakers approved $10.5 billion in emergency aid for victims of Hurricane Katrina just four days after that storm hit the Gulf Coast in 2005. And about a month after the storm made landfall, President George W. Bush signed legislation providing an additional $51.8 billion in relief.
Sandy killed more than 100 people in 10 states - 41 in New York City alone - and wiped out entire communities in coastal New York and New Jersey. It also paralyzed mass transit systems and left tens of thousands of people homeless. Power was cut to more than 8 million homes.
Critics of the Hurricane Sandy disaster relief legislation say it's too expensive and includes provisions that aren't emergency-related, such as infrastructure projects to protect the Northeast coast from future storms.
"When you're running trillion-dollar deficits, I think it has to compete with other demands for infrastructure spending," Republican Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania said.
The legislation survived several delays on the way to Monday's vote.
The Senate had planned to vote on the bill last week but was sidetracked by a debate over filibuster rules.
On Dec. 28, the Senate voted to approve $60.4 billion in aid for Sandy victims, but that vote was nullified when the House failed to act before the 113th Congress took office on Jan. 3.
The $50.5 billion bill includes $16 billion in Community Development Block Grant money critical for rebuilding, $10.9 billion for public transportation projects, and $13 billion to safeguard the Northeast against another storm.
It also includes $11.5 billion for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster relief fund, $780 million for Small Business Administration disaster loans, and $118 million for Amtrak.

The Greatest Show on Earth!
When it comes to home theaters, I thought I'd seen it all. But nothing's come close to this. First, I'm going to try to describe the sheer magnitude of Jeremy Kipnis' theater. His Stewart Snowmatte laboratory-grade screen is the biggest I've ever seen in a home, and in the back of the theater, there's a Sony ultra-high-resolution (4,096-by-2,160) SRX-S110 digital projector. I'm looking everywhere, jotting down questions, and Kipnis sounds almost giddy talking about his theater's capabilities. He refers to his baby, the Kipnis Studio Standard (KSS), as "The Greatest Show on Earth." And from the looks of it, he may be right.
While the KSS is technically an 8.8-channel audio system, it uses a lot more than eight speakers and eight subwoofers. Kipnis felt that a lone center speaker sounded a tad undernourished compared with the eight Snell THX Cinema & Music Reference towers, so he opted for three Snell LCR-2800 center-channel speakers. The original contingent of eight subs sounded "really good" but, unfortunately, didn't deliver the full earth-moving-under-your-feet effect he wanted. So, he wound up with 16 18-inch Snell subs! To balance the other frequency extreme, and for the ultimate in transient speed and transparency, the Snell speakers' treble has been augmented with MuRata ES103A super tweeters. Thus, from the deepest deep bass (10 hertz) up to the extreme high-frequency range (100 kilohertz), the KSS is the most full-range system I've ever heard—and felt. The speakers are fed by a well-balanced combination of audiophile solid-state and vacuum-tube amplifiers. The KSS is astonishing in the way it delivers power, but with 11,315 very high-quality watts on tap, that's hardly surprising. Not only can it play ungodly loud, the KSS sounds phenomenal while doing so and never hurt my tender ears. The theater is big but far from huge. Its vaulted ceiling ranges from 8 feet high at the rear end to 16 feet at the screen end of the room (which is 26.5 feet wide and 33 feet long). The 18-foot screen fulfilled my IMAX fantasies, and the projector's va-va-voom color and brilliant light were transformational. I just tried to take it all in as I scribbled notes, afraid I might miss some of the juicier details.
AC power conditioning for the KSS is, again, done to the max. Next to the garage, there are two mammoth General Electric 13,800-volt/800-amp step-down transformers; all of the cabling is audiophile-grade wire, and every aspect of performance and presentation is scrutinized, even down to the 40-amp cryogenically treated circuit breakers for each and every component in the system.
How It Came to Be
I first met Kipnis in the early 1990s when he worked for Chesky Records as an engineer/producer. And later in the decade, I followed his exploits when he started his own classical music label, Epiphany Recordings Limited. Hooked on video at an early age, he was the first on his block to buy a laserdisc player in 1980 and went on to amass a huge collection of players and discs. He watched them on one of the very first projectors in the market, the Kloss NovaBeam Model 1, with a 6.5-foot curved silver screen in his Redding, Connecticut, home, where he still resides. The projector's legendary inventor, Henry Kloss, was a neighbor and good friend of Kipnis' parents, so you might say the seeds of the KSS were planted long ago. The man's passions run deep. Kipnis tells me, "I've been watching movies since I was four on really big screens in movie theaters, and three years ago, those experiences inspired me to design a home theater with the absolute best picture and sound."
But it's more than that. Kipnis sees the KSS as a laboratory, an ongoing experiment to advance the state of the art. And it's not just for himself; he's dead serious about selling the KSS to movie-industry professionals and wealthy home theater aficionados. He sees his huge screen as an intrinsic part of the experience. "It's an unprecedented level of immersion that I'm looking for." The mix of brands and models for his customers' KSS systems will be site specific, and he imagines that, unlike his installation, the componentry and speakers will be stealthily deployed. The KSS pictured here is Beta Ciné, so yes, there's an even bigger KSS, the Alpha Ciné, in the planning stages. It's intended for much larger venues, such as screening rooms or perhaps even actual movie theaters. The Gamma Ciné will be a scaled-down KSS for smaller living rooms, bedrooms, or kitchens. The Gamma Ciné will likely utilize rear-projection techniques. (When not in use, the screen will look like a wall, and all of the equipment will live behind the screen.) The philosophy of all three KSS systems is the same—nothing but the best picture and sound. Price estimates will be site specific, but the cost of Kipnis' home system would be in the $6-million range.
Scaling the Heights
Setting up the Sony SRX-R110 digital cinema projector is a demanding job, and Kipnis has invested a lot of time into maximizing its potential, all in an effort to advance the state of the art. He's an Imaging Science Foundation–certified technician and studied with video-tweaking legend Joe Kane.
The Sony projector doesn't have HDMI inputs that are HDCP compliant, but it upscales Blu-ray and HD DVD players' component outputs to its native 4K resolution. So sure, it might look even better if he could use his HD player's digital outputs, but Kipnis feels the picture quality he's getting right now is "far more outstanding and realistic than any other movie theater I've experienced on the planet." Pressing the question about keeping the KSS' video all digital, he admits that he's also considering commissioning a custom-built scaler from Silicon Optix or Snell & Wilcox. The ultimate goal is to produce a picture that's an open window to the world.
With a bit of luck, Kipnis will get to play the KSS for the likes of George Lucas, Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, and Martin Scorsese. And who knows—they each might be so thrilled, they'll buy one on the spot. That would be great, but I wonder out loud, "Would you have done all of this if you didn't hope to turn it into a commercial enterprise? Would you have done it just for yourself?" Without hesitating, Kipnis says, "Just to see what's possible? Yes, I would."

To the guys whos say that he shouldn't have a 360, but should have a PS3, you guys are complete bozos. If he has that much money invested in a system, he could afford both. Not to mention a pretty damned good PC, (or Mac, or both....)
Gotta love all the ignorant comments.The man is obviously VERY wealthy, and most wealthy individuals donate more money then you will be worth in your entire life. It's also a great tax write off.For the people complaining about his the "investment" ... who cares ? You dont buy a Ferrari to make money, and you dont buy a Yacht to make money. You HAVE money and you want the BEST>If his set up is worth $2million in the future, is he gonna care ? Probably not. Might be upset he lost 4 million over several years, but he has the BEST in audio and video technology to show for it.
I am running an "older" 7.1 loudspeaker system, and the WAF (wife acceptance factor) is quite low. A snapshot of the rack where the media PC, the playing devices and the amps are located looks a little like a setup at a rock concert. Great for tech lovers, not so great for a living room. I would like to see how this rig looks like having all wires connected to the amps, loudspeakers, etc.There is a reason why this isn't shown in those pictures. If I had 6 million to spend, I would build a house that has all the gear (players, amps, etc.) in a separate room and runs the cables invisible in a separate sandwich floor similar to office or server buildings. That way, you can still have lots of loudspeakers around you, but not have to deal with cables cluttering your home cinema room.
Everyone who condemns his spending his money on something he likes is just plain jealous. Why should he give it away to charity? He earned his money, he can spend it as he likes. Good for him. I bet his system is fantastic in every respect. He obviously has had time to research all the components. Besides, I know his musical background, and he knows what he is doing.
I don't understand how people don't realize that it's supposed to be over the top. Like when they build a custom Lamborghini to use in an ad to sell you tyres for your minivan... or show a million dollar house in an ad to sell you a $14 gallon of paint. Just so happens he's trying to sell something upscale, but admittedly he said it would be more stealthy.For the hippies looking for their handouts- go get a job and donate that to charity. Have you seen how much the execs at those charities make? They could afford this system...
the thing that really stands out about most of the comments above is the envy and the lack of any sort of social grace by a lot of the posters.it's an unfortunate reality that the internet has now become a cesspit of negativity from people with the deportment of an ADD angst ridden teenager who can't enjoy something for what it's worth.personally I might not have built such a system, but damn that's impressive.
To address a few points:1.the absence of the cables was an artistic decision made jointly by Kipnis, Robert Wright, photographer, and Steve Guttenberg, writer. The equipment had recently been taken apart for the installation of the acoustic foam and lighting system. They all felt that the photos would come out looking better without cables.2.The image from Ratatouille was a choice by the Home Theater Magazine editors. In these magazines, the images displayed on the screens in the photos are NEVER "live." They are usually inserted in post.3.The number of speakers is maximized in order to maximize overhead and minimize stress of any single driver. Think of it like a team of people carrying a heavy object. The more people you have, the less effort each person will have to make, accomplishing the task with a minimum of strain and fatigue. That is one of the keys to the transparency of sound in any room. It's not about loudness, it's about dynamic RANGE.5.A small group makes a bet
I think some of you like to critize more than trying to understand others like Kipnes... The one who might have his taste that none of you can ever have so either you are showing your jealous attitude or b/c you can't afford it and you make fun of others?... Again, anything about musics are personal preference and their equipments as well. Kipnes could be a collector of what he owns there, that none of you in this forum might not even have a chance in this life to have what he has, so what is the point of making the critics about his spending?... What would I say that I think people collecting cards are the most ridiculous species on earth, what do you think? Show people some respects and if you dont have one, learn it....
"Wow...someone has a lot of cash, and needs to be donating it to charity, not spending it on rediculous "entertainment" systems."So, David, do you prefer Socialism or Communism?The man has the money and the desire. More power to him. Welcome to the Wonderful World Of Capitalism, comrade.
Thank you, all, for your comments.They are most appreciated! If anyone (even you naysayers with professional credentials) would like to join us, here at KSS, for a complete, hand-tailored demonstration of your favorite music, film, television, video games - You Name the Source! - - -PLEASE - contact us for an appointment, now.Our formal demonstrations conclude at the end of August 2008!We look forward to seeing you :-)Cheers -Jeremywww.Kipnis-Studios.comPS - I don't want to hear anymore negative and or vitriolic comments on this (otherwise) very well received blog. The author & I intended this as opportunity to share knowledge and experience with those interested.If you having nothing constructive to say - please just say nothing!It's better that way!
I read a SciFi story last year where the speaker cables for a rich man's home system were made out of the brain and spinal cord of criminals who had ripped off intellectual property. Apparently, this type of cable was unsurpassed for clarity. The "criminals" who had been processed for this application where still alive and cognizant of their fate. Now, that is what is needed for a system of this cost! But really, why should we be critical of how rich people spend their money? I would probably build a pyramid. Oh, and I DO like the Nautilus. Is it a Totalimmersion model or the Disney 50 year celebration issue?
I was fortunate enough to hear Jeremy's home theater today. It was the most amazing "home theater" I've ever been in. I have a good system at home consisting of Wison Maxx 2's for main speakers, Revel center, sub, and rears a Krell surround sound processor and Krell amps. My system doesn't come close to Jeremy's. The sound is better and more enjoyable than you hear at most concerts. It is incredibly lifelike. Jeremy is a genius and a very gracious host.
Hmm, for that kind of money I'd probably gone with something a bit more theater like. You want to be able to bring 20 or 100 of your closest friends over and have them experience your setup while sitting in comfy recliners.As others have said you can build something that rivals the best THX certified commercial theaters for less than $6 million and have room to seat more than 3 people.Given his goals for the system having all the equipment out where you can see it is probably intentional.Does make you wonder what Lucas has in his house though.
This is just ridiculous....beautiful equipment but just ridiculous. It makes me think of the guys who barely know how to play come as you are but show off their 62 stratocaster on youtube...just a total cunt.

New single family and duplex homes in Rifle will not have to have fire sprinkler systems next year, city council decided.
The issue was first discussed by council, developers and a fire official at a Nov. 7 workshop.
The 2009 International Residential Code Rifle adopted a few years ago calls for the sprinkler system requirement to take effect in 2013. However, Assistant City Manager Matt Sturgeon had noted that every municipality in Garfield County, except Rifle, opted out of the fire sprinkler requirement.
Instead, Sturgeon proposed the city require each unit of a duplex have a 2-hour rated firewall and unfinished basements include sheetrock on the ceiling of the basement level to protect the passage ways on the main living floor if a fire starts in the basement.
"This helps protect against residents and public safety responders from falling through the floor" if a fire occurs, Sturgeon wrote in a memo to the council. "The current code would have required sprinklers in the basement areas."
Realtor Glenn Ault said the two requirements would add to the cost of constructing a new home, which is already out of reach of developers.
Home builder Jeb Savage said he had a hard time seeing a real advantage to requiring sheetrock in unfinished basements.
"The reason most people have them built in new homes is for future improvements," he said.
City council voted 5-0, with Councilmembers Jennifer Sanborn and Keith Lambert absent, in favor of the code changes as Sturgeon recommended.

Ben Raby, wtop.com
WASHINGTON – Amid all of the coverage this week of the Washington Capitals hiring Adam Oates as the 16th head coach in team history, there has been plenty of focus on Oates' playing career.
Oates spent 19 years in the NHL and ranks sixth all-time in assists and 16th all- time in points. His career accomplishments will be celebrated Nov. 12 when he is officially inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame as part of the class of 2012.
When inducted, Oates will likely thank the coaches and teammates who helped him along the way. And when you play for seven teams spread over parts of three decades, chances are good that you played with some talented teammates along the way.
With that in mind, we've compiled the All-Adam Oates-Team, a roster made up entirely of Oates' former teammates. The roster includes 15 forwards, six defensemen, three goalies and two coaches.
Like the NHL's annual All Star Game, the only criteria for this roster was that all seven of Oates' former teams had at least one representative.
Among the omissions from this list were two of the game's best enforcers in Bob Probert and Chris Simon. We've also omitted Hall of Fame member Joe Mullen who Oates played briefly with in Boston for part of the 1995-96 season.

Hello all,
I was searching around and I found general items about implementing whitelists for spam... but does anyone know how to implement a whitelist for amavisd quarantined messages? I have payroll emails getting quarantined for "Heuristics.Encrypted.PDF". I need to get these through and this just started with the latest upgrade to 6.0.16...
I was thinking of hacking on the amavisd config file, but I am not sure if/how this gets overwritten by zimbra's config tools.
Any help is appreciated.
-Cheers, Peter.

L.A. Roadster Show & Swap MeetWritten by Brian Brennan on October 23, 2013 Contributors: Eric Geisert, Tim Bernsau Father's Day
Sometimes it takes time to fully appreciate the wisdom of a previous action. Across the country Father's Day is a special day to be with and enjoy one's family—as it should be. It too is an ideal day to exert a bit of your paternal birthright (albeit minimal when compared to the swath wielded by the family's matriarchal member!) and proclaim, "It's Father's Day and I would like to go the L.A. Roadsters Show & Swap." The real genius is that it isn't just one day but officially two, unofficially three, and truthfully four days of deep emersion into all things hot rods. Because it's "Father's Day" you get all four for the use of one Father's Day redemption coupon. Shear genius on behalf of those L.A. Roadsters club members who came up with this show many decades back.
The L.A. Roadsters club has been around longer than their 49th Annual L.A. Roadsters Show & Swap would lead you to believe. (Have you had your aha moment: Next year will be the 50th and all input we gather tells us the L.A. Roadsters have something special planned—so, plan on being there.) For several years the Father's Day get-together has featured a different look. It has absorbed Building 4 of the Pomona Fairplex (identified as the main building during the Grand National Roadster Show) to house a manufacturers' row, several specialty hot rod exhibits, and an indoor food court serving refreshments and a place to get out of the summertime SoCal sun. (OK, the weather isn't brutal by any means, in fact, it's ideal roadster driving temps.) Outside the fairground is divided up a bit differently from years past with roadsters and outdoor exhibits around Building 4. One of the really fun exhibits within Building 4 was the collection of past America's Most Beautiful Roadster winners from the Grand National Roadster Show. These cars are perfectly at home within the weekend gathering of roadsters surrounding them; nearly a dozen of these past winners were present, including the first and most current winners. A great exhibit within an exhibit. It's amazing to see how much these cars have and haven't changed over the years. As part of the weekend entertainment there was a Cacklefest, having grown from five cars to this year with 14 front-engine diggers. As an added benefit you can also get into the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum for no additional charge by just presenting your show ticket. (For those who haven't visited the museum it really is a great piece of hot rod history; all of us should have it on our bucket list of sites to see. And while you are there please say "hi" to museum curator Greg Sharp, an often used resource for those of us in the STREET RODDER office.)
Once again, 700-plus roadsters, several hundred exhibitors (indoors and out), and plenty of exhibits make for a great way to spend the weekend. It should be noted that while the show has an official move-in day of Friday, the swap meet area is hot and heavy with a brisk business of dead presidents exchanging hands beginning on Thursday evening and through the wee hours of Friday. In fact, truth be told, most of the really interesting parts and pieces have already exchanged hands come Saturday morning. And, as all of us have noticed on more than one occasion many of these exchanged pieces end up for sale in another swap space come Saturday. According to the club members there were hundreds upon hundreds of swap spaces, more than in years past. As for the Preferred Parking, which is a show within a show, for many this is the best place to be. It too set records, nearing 2,000 cars. This area is a great place to see both finished and in-progress hot rods. It is also a great place to wander from swap space to swap space and have a cold one with your buddy you haven't seen in a while. The Preferred Parking area has grown to such "largeness" that many never make it into the roadster area but rather spend their weekend walking the swap meet and Specialty Vehicle parking areas.
With next year being the 50th anniversary of the roadster exhibition and swap meet it should prove to be one of the summer's highlights. Anyone who enjoys the L.A. Roadsters Father's Day show should plan on attending, and if you haven't ever been 2014 would be a good time to start.
Specialty Parking
Maybe it's like going to an Italian restaurant and ordering the chow mein. We can't help it. We like what we like and some of our favorite cars at the L.A.Roadsters Show just happen to not be roadsters. And that's OK, because instead of turning the coupes, sedans, and other topped rods and customs away at the gate, the L.A. Roadsters Car Club gives them their own special area with its own special name: Specialty Parking.
The variety to be found among the rods with roofs is always remarkable. As you'll see from our short selection, Specialty Parking fills up with new builds, old favorites, low-buck drivers, high-buck drivers, show-quality street rods, rough stuff, and everything else they have room for.
The Swap Meet
For a large number of enthusiasts, Father's Day weekend in Pomona isn't about admiring finished cars, it's about the huge parts safari that takes place in the far parking lot.
For those enthusiasts, the enormous annual swap meet is the event. The buyers are looking for those elusive car parts they need (or can't resist). The vendors are looking to make a little (or a lot of) cash.
The serious hunters show up on Friday, before everything's been picked through and the greatest stuff and sweetest deals haven't been scooped up. By Sunday, the huge west end parking lot looks like an animal carcass after the lions have left. It might be a good time to negotiate some deals with vendors who would rather sell a part than pack it up and take it home, but generally, the hidden treasure has already been discovered.

Throwing a dinner party? Don't underestimate the power of a perfectly set table. Here's how to do it right:
Image courtesy of Eddie Ross.
Additional tips:
- Wineglasses. These should be arranged in the order they will be used.
- Silverware. Work from the outside in – appetizer, entrée, then dessert (thank you, Titanic). Some believe that dessert utensils should always be above the dinner plate – this is fine, as is presenting them with the dessert course.
- Courses. You can vary the silverware based on the courses you're serving. If you have soup rather than a fish appetizer, for example, you would lose the leftmost fork entirely and replace the knife on the far right with a soup spoon.
- Napkin. The napkin should be at the far left. It's also acceptable to place it on the dinner plate (especially if you're using napkin rings), or to style it neatly in one of the glasses.
All you really need is this advice from our Home Editorial Director, Eddie Ross – "forks are on the left, spoons and knives on the right, [with] blades facing in" – and you can modify from there to suit your tastes.
Bon appétit!

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Jackie Chan says he wants his latest film to spread the message about how China's national artifacts are being looted and sold.
"Chinese Zodiac" or "CZ12" is about a man who finds and recovers 12 bronze zodiac animal heads historically depicted as being looted from China's Summer Palace by colonialists.
He said he was upset after seeing three of the bronzes being auctioned while he lived in Hong Kong.
The director and star of the film told reporters in South Korea, "I wanted to give you and people around the world a message through a movie" about the looting.
Chan was in Seoul to promote the movie and attend its South Korean premiere. It opened in Hong Kong in December and is gradually appearing worldwide.

Weekly Crop Conditions Decline
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa has received some much-needed rain but the state is still dry.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture says in Monday's weekly report that Iowa received an average of 1.5 inches of rain last week. That's above the normal of about 1.2 inches. Even so, more than half the topsoil and subsoil remains dry.
The USDA says 67 percent of the corn crop, which is beginning to silk, is in good or excellent condition. That's the same as last week.
Soybeans, which are starting to bloom, are rated 61 percent good to excellent. That's down from 62 percent a week ago.
More than half the state's pastures and range land are in poor or fair condition. However, stress on livestock is minimal with no issues reported.
June 30th Deadline For Reporting Acres
(Des Moines) -- Iowa Farm Service Agency (FSA) State Executive Director, John Whitaker reminds farmers and ranchers that filing an accurate acreage report for all crops and land uses, including failed acreage and prevented planting acreage, can prevent the loss of benefits for a variety of programs.
Acreage reports are required for many Farm Service Agency programs. For crops enrolled in programs other than NAP (Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program) acreage reports are to be certified by the June 30, 2012 deadline on all crops. Acreage reports on crops covered by NAP are due in the county office by the earlier of June 30, 2012, or 15 calendar days before the onset of harvest or grazing of the specific crop acreage being reported.
Crop reports also include planting dates for each crop by field. Failed acreage must be reported before disposition of the crop. Prevented planting must be reported no later than 15 days after the final planting date.
Reporting forage crops and pastures is also required. All crops on the farm, including forage crops and pasture are used to determine overall eligibility for some programs such as SURE and LFP, so accurately reporting these crops is important. Since the make up of a forage crop's stand changes over time, the legumes and/or grass mixture may be needed or the age of the stand in order to file an accurate report. The Iowa FSA office issued guidance regarding the percent of alfalfa or other legume/grass that is present in the stand for producers to accurately report their crops. Another change: for 2013, perennial forage, fall wheat, and other fall seeded small grains will have a December 15th reporting date.

The Stieber sprag fits, its exactly the same size. In fact it appears to be identical in every way, so I dont know if it's any stronger than OEM. My sprag must have been slipping for a lot longer than I noticed because I'm surprised how fast my C5 stars now. I'll have to see how long it lasts.
I like that the new clutch has that spring band going down the middle of the sprags. That tends to keep them tucked out of harm's way unless there's enough centrifugal force to engage them. It also has they wavy wire cage to keep them located, more flexible than the solid sheet steel style cage that can shatter when the engine kicks back.Scott

Stillwater, OK (Sports Network) - Two of the top teams in the Big 12
Conference collide on Wednesday night at Gallagher-Iba Arena, as the 14th-
ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys play host to the ninth-ranked Kansas Jayhawks.
The Jayhawks (9-3) and Cowboys (9-3) are both a half game behind Kansas State
in the conference standings by virtue of the Wildcats' 71-61 win over West
Virginia on Monday. Kansas holds a huge advantage in the all-time series with
Oklahoma State, 106-54, but it is the Cowboys seeking the regular-season sweep
after knocking off the Jayhawks in Lawrence, 85-80, and ending Kansas' 33-game
homecourt winning streak.
Bill Self's Jayhawks lost two straight after that setback, but have righted
the ship most recently, blowing out both Kansas State (83-62) and Texas
(73-47) in succession.
Travis Ford's Cowboys come into this contest with plenty of momentum, having
won each of the last seven games. The victories haven't all come easy though,
including a shootout, overtime affair with rival Oklahoma this past weekend,
The Jayhawks took advantage of a awful shooting performance by Texas in their
romp of the Longhorns this past weekend, as UT delivered on just 21.8 percent
from the floor, including an ugly 19.2 percent in the first half, when the
visitors connected on just five field goals. The Jayhawks dominated in most
areas, including outscoring Texas 38-16 in the paint and earning 20 points off
16 UT turnovers. Travis Releford and Jeff Withey led the way with 15 points
each. Withey completed a double-double with 11 rebounds and also added two
blocks to become the Big 12's all-time leader in that category (265). Ben
McLemore and Elijah Johnson added to the offensive assault with 13 and 12
points, respectively.
On the season, Kansas utilized stifling defensive play to fuel its attack. The
Jayhawks are limiting foes to just 60 points per game, while leading the
nation in field-goal percentage defense (.356). The team also enjoys a +6.0
rebounding margin and ranks third nationally in blocks (6.9 bpg). McLemore has
made an immediate impact in his first season on the floor, as the redshirt
freshman is shooting .511 overall, .434 from behind the arc and pacing the
team with 16.7 ppg. Withey has been a monster inside. The 7-footer is
averaging 13.2 points and 8.4 rebounds per game, while his 4.0 blocks per game
ranks third nationally. Releford rounds out the double-digit threats at 12.0
ppg, while Johnson can create offense for himself (9.2 ppg) and others (4.6
Oklahoma State is a dangerous team with great balance. The Cowboys hold a
+11.5 scoring margin, averaging 73.0 ppg, while holding opponents to 61.5 ppg
and just under 40 percent shooting (.392). OSU has a number of scoring options
at the offensive end, headlined by the dynamic backcourt duo of Markel Brown
(15.8 ppg) and Marcus Smart (15.0 ppg). Le'Bryan Nash (13.3 ppg) is the player
to watch in the frontcourt, while freshman Phil Forte (11.3 ppg) has been a
real asset coming off the bench.
Oklahoma State got off to a slow start at home against Oklahoma last time out,
trailing the Sooners by eight points at the half. However, the Cowboys came to
life in the second half, shooting 56 percent from the field to force overtime
and then carried that over in the extra session to earn the win. Smart led all
scorers with 28 points, shooting 7-of-14 from the floor and 11-of-14 from the
free-throw line. Nash followed a similar path, racking up 26 points, going 9-
of-18 from the floor and 8-of-11 from the charity stripe. Brown delivered 14
points in support, while Forte finished with 10.

Royals exercise 2012 club option on pitcher Joakim Soria
The Royals announced today that the club has exercised the 2012 club option on closer Joakim Soria. Consistent with club policy, terms of the option were not disclosed.
"This decision was more of a formality," Royals GM Dayton Moore said. "Joakim has been an exceptional closer for the last five years. For us to put together a strong pitching staff in 2012, it is important that Joakim remain a key component at the back end of the bullpen."
Soria, 27, was 5-5 with 28 saves and a 4.03 ERA in 60 relief appearances in 2011. From June 1 through the end of the season, Soria converted 21 of 23 save opportunities while posting a 2.58 ERA. The two-time American League All-Star (2008, 2010) has compiled 160 saves in 180 opportunities while posting a 2.40 ERA in five seasons with the Royals since making his debut in 2007.

The revival of localism
Young conservatives reject lure of Washington, D.C., in favor of a more powerful place-home
"The revival of localism" Continued...
Newspaper editor Gene Roberts once noted, "Many important stories don't break. They seep, trickle and ooze. Let's be sure we are covering the ooze."
Here's some ooze: Local idiosyncrasy is in, uniformity is out. Locavores emphasize foods grown nearby. Microbreweries create locally crafted drinks. In politics, voters strike back against one-size-fits-all Obamacare. In skyscrapers and ballparks, postmodernist structures with nooks and crannies have replaced boxy buildings and cookie-cutter stadiums.
Breaking stories are easy to cover because they are action-oriented events at specific times and places. Ooze is harder because it requires juxtaposing changes that initially may not seem related. Here are seven:
• The baby boom generation (people born between 1946 and 1964) pioneered divorce rates and two-career couples. Many among the baby bust crowd (born in the late 1960s and 1970s and redubbed Generation X after Douglas Coupland in 1991 published a novel with that title) rebel against that.
• Many commercials seem less focused on achieving prominence in the world and more on the satisfactions of family and community. The popular Volkswagen ad premiered during the Super Bowl shows a mom giving her son a sandwich and the dad coming home from work. Gen X blogger Penelope Trunk sees in such commercials "Gen X values front and center. . . . We like being home to make our kids peanut butter and jelly. You could not sell Baby Boomers with this. They think it's lame to sit in a kitchen waiting for your kid to be hungry. We like having a male breadwinner and we're not afraid to say it."
• The media movement two decades ago was toward more centralization, with USA Today and networks riding high. Now the hot area of interest is localism and hyper-localism, with new journalistic websites aimed at small geographic areas popping up and national media like AOL, CNN, and MSNBC seeding neighborhood publications.
• The average American drove less in 2010 than in 2000. The number of commercial flights now is the same as on Sept. 10, 2001, even though America has more people. Mobility declined throughout the past decade, with not even one out of 10 American households changing addresses in 2010. Yes, higher gasoline prices have curtailed some driving, security procedures have curtailed some flying, and declining property values have crushed many hopes of upward mobility-but the reasons for change seem more than material.
• An American's 19th-century question upon first meeting another often was "Who are your people?" The 20th-century question was "What do you do?" The question in the 21st century is "Where do you live?" Many people put roots above shoots, choosing to live in a place rather than moving to advance a career.
• An emphasis on local control of government, local production and consumption of goods, and local culture is popular among young Christians. Their favorite author is often a pre-baby-boom author and Kentucky farmer, 76-year-old Wendell Berry. Berry praises reverence for God and life, the pleasures of good work, good food, and frugality. He says those joys are more likely to be found in healthy rural communities that value small farms and don't overdose on technology.
• Many Christians used to coalesce politically through national organizations like the Moral Majority, the Christian Coalition, and Focus on the Family, but some of them went out of business or lost steam. The big political story of 2010 was the growth of the decentralized Tea Party movement.
These oozes may coalesce in the growth of localism, but I'm not the best analyst of that, for localism is foreign to my experience. On occasional sleepless nights I now recite to myself the 23rd Psalm, and it almost always works. In past years, since counting sheep didn't work, I counted places lived in (43 different houses or apartments for at least a month, in 14 states) or slept in: close to 700. This homework made me realize that, like many baby boomers, I have no real home.
So I interviewed some from Generation X who have a home. Working off reader nominations of thoughtful and passionate Christians under 40 (see WORLD, July 3, 2010), I've found young men and women who understand that they are Christian pilgrims in this world-but they expect to stay in one place, making friends and being of service, unless and until God moves them on.
Caleb Stegall is 39 and has spent about 90 percent of his life within 20 miles of the place in northeastern Kansas where he was born, a radius that includes the state capital and a state university. He's been Jefferson County's district attorney; earlier, he created and edited an Internet journal, The New Pantagruel, that received national attention as a traditionalist voice.
After graduating from law school Stegall had job offers from all over the country. He and his wife "thought really long and hard about going and there was a lot of attractiveness, not the least of which was the starting salary, but in the end we decided to stay or stay committed to our place. I took a job in Topeka."
Why? They had two sons at that time (three more now) and wanted a good place to raise kids, but also a good place to raise themselves: Stegall says, "We lose and leave behind a lot when we conceive of society as this great ladder to climb. Our eyes are always on the next rung up, and what is left behind never gets a backward glance. This has led to a tremendous amount of dispossession and displacement: spiritual angst, and also real-world destruction and exploitation of different places and people. I didn't want to have any part of that, so we made the decision to stay."
Stegall has seen dislocation and disruption in the lives of kids he grew up with who headed to the bright lights: Most "have been very dissatisfied." Stegall himself became dissatisfied with his work in commercial litigation at a Topeka law firm, where he represented "large corporations suing each other most of the time." He didn't want to be "just a cog in this economic machine," so after a few years he returned to his rural county, hung out a shingle, and practiced law in a town of 900 people, "using my tools to fix problems. That's gratifying, and that's what it means to be part of the community."
Stegall recently did take a job a few miles down the road as chief counsel to new Kansas Governor Sam Brownback, who himself was coming home after 14 years as a U.S. senator. Stegall has no Washington plans, though: "The powers of a centralized economy and state are so great that your chances of effecting change are much greater in a place where you actually wield some influence, as opposed to just being a small, small piece in the big machine."
Victoria Cobb, 32, offers a similar comparison of Washington versus state capitals. As a college student in Richmond, the losing capital in the Civil War, she was excited about an internship in the winning capital where power now resided: "It's a glitzy thing: You think, 'Wow, everything happens in D.C.'" But in the last semester of her senior year she worked for the Family Foundation of Virginia, a state level affiliate of Focus on the Family, and "saw the tremendous difference between what happens in Washington, D.C., and in Richmond."
Cobb is now president of the Family Foundation but still recalls that difference: "In Washington you trail a lobbyist to wait, to wait, to wait, to get to an aide of an aide of an aide of a congressman. As an intern in Richmond I'm walking in a state senator's office and we're talking about substantive issues. I learned that if you're a person who really wants to make substantive change, you ought to start at the state and local level. There may be more that you can accomplish there."
Ned Ryun, 38, is another young leader with Washington experience who does not approve of conservative groups' "thinking they have to go to D.C. to beat D.C. Many become very bureaucratic, very much like what they came to change. I don't believe the answers to our problems are in D.C." The son of former world record runner (and congressman) Jim Ryun, he views his calling as a long-distance run: Ten years ago he was answering correspondence in the Bush White House, but now he heads American Majority, which encourages people to run for school boards, county commissions, and so forth with the goal of "creating a groundswell from the bottom up."
Christian and conservative women are well-positioned to be part of that groundswell. Liberals have an advantage among single, full-time-professional young women in cities like Washington and New York, but conservatives do better with married women with children in most of the country. They should be dominating school boards and other part-time positions that do not cut into family time. Ryun's American Majority also trains older people, including retirees, and there again conservatives have an advantage.
A fourth Christian I interviewed, Ryan Messmore, 36, has moved around a bit-but he grew up at first in Tennessee and still remembers his sense of displacement when his dad moved the family to New Jersey: "We went to the train station to pick up my dad. We stood at the bottom of the stairs as the commuters were coming down. We were making eye contact and saying hello and offering Southern hospitality and, whoosh, they went speeding by."
One word younger Christians use frequently is "community." They read reports of selfish individuals flinging around their wealth thoughtlessly while many among the poor live in straitened circumstances. They don't have much faith in government, but if the choice in an election seems to be between greed and government, some still hope that government action will help to bring about community. They need to see what churches and other institutions of civil society can do.
Still local
Some new members of Congress like James Lankford have stepped into Washington-but only with one foot
By Marvin Olasky
James Lankford for 13 years was director of youth programming at Falls Creek Baptist Conference Center in Oklahoma, which describes itself as the largest youth encampment in the United States. For two months he has been a member of Congress, but he hasn't forgotten where he came from-although he is loath to mention part of his past.
The part he rarely mentions is his degree in education from the University of Texas at Austin, a biographical detail that wouldn't win him plaudits from Oklahoma fans, at least during the football season. The part he speaks about is his commitment to "civil society," the generally local institutions that encourage Americans to work together in problem-solving without relying on government.
Congress these days generally does its business from Monday evening through Thursday, which allows Lankford to spend half his time in Oklahoma even when the House is in session. He's not betting on a rise in D.C. real estate values: He sleeps in his office, in part to rebuild savings reduced during the year after he left his camp job to concentrate on campaigning. He's committed to "making government smaller, more local," and criticizes "national standards" in education and other spheres-"making every state the same, every city the same."
Lankford told me he's reluctant to criticize former President George W. Bush, but thinks "it was a terrible idea" to do No Child Left Behind as a national education program. Although his camping background makes inevitable the comparisons to movie character Jefferson Smith-one blog called him a "reincarnation of Jimmy Stewart's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington"-he has far more policy sophistication. For example, he understands that major deficit reductions require changes in Medicare and other sacred entitlements, and jokes about those who say, "If you just cut off the UN, we'd do fine."
He remains a member of Quail Springs Baptist Church in Oklahoma City, is exploring several congressional Bible studies, and readily makes references both to biblical passages-Proverbs 8 and 31 came up in our conversation-and Oklahoma poverty-fighting ministries like the City Rescue Mission.
Other newcomers to Congress also sound traditional GOP decentralist themes. Some do it with defiance: South Dakota's Kristi Noem, 38, told a crowd last month at the Conservative Political Action Conference, "We don't have knowledge about the way Washington operates-and frankly, we don't really care." Some do it with determination. Raul Labrador, born to a single mom in Puerto Rico and now a member of Congress from Idaho, spoke of his opposition to "personal responsibility stripped away and replaced with government control."
Labrador said his views are "not mere talking points for me, but part of a mission statement that I have lived." That's the crucial question regarding a revival of localism: Talking points or mission statement?

Sugar Free Allstars rock awesomely for Austin kids at SXSW
Rob "Dr. Rock" Martin and Chris "Boom!" Wiser at SXSW
AUSTIN, Texas — While thousands of adults checked the credential requirements to get into the Vampire Weekend show or staked out seating for the Flaming Lips evening concert, Oklahoma City's Sugar Free Allstars were playing for the next generation of South By Southwest fans.
Singer-organist Chris "Boom!" Wiser and drummer Rob "Dr. Rock" Martin were featured players at Friday's "Spare the Rock, Spoil the Child" showcase at Tamale House East on Sixth Street, just a few blocks away from the SXSW epicenter. A weekly "kindie rock" show hosted by Bill Childs and originating from Austin, "Spare the Rock, Spoil the Child" regularly features Sugar Free Allstars, alongside other kid-friendly acts such as They Might Be Giants.
"We've known Bill for a long time — he's one of the founding members of the "Kindiefest" conference that we go to all the time," Wiser said after playing a 30-minute outdoor set for a group of little rockers. "Since we're fairly close, he asked us to come down, and we did it without hesitation."
The Sugar Free Allstars have been playing soul-infused rock since the 1990s, but Wiser and Martin started recording rock music for small fans in 2007 and found a growing niche. Friday's lunchtime show was just part of the duo's busy schedule: they will play their first orchestra show at 2 p.m. April 7 as part of the Oklahoma City Philharmonic's Discovery Family Series. The show will feature orchestrations by Nathan Siler of the Fellowship Students and Portraiture. They will play KindieFest April 26-28 in Brooklyn, N.Y., and will stage their own family music festival in Oklahoma City, titled Wiggle Out Loud, on Sept. 1 at downtown's Bicentennial Park, featuring the Verve Pipe.
Wiser said that kid-oriented pop and rock music became a serious genre because bands such as SFAS and the Verve Pipe, which enjoyed success in 1996 with its Top 5 hit, "The Freshmen," wanted to make music for kids that was just as good as what adults enjoy, but with more relatable subject matter. He said that the "Spare the Rock" showcase and the growth of KindieFest are signs that the genre will only get bigger.
"It's like a 'family music has arrived' kind of thing," Wiser said.

What I am picturing is a world map that would include Atlantis, Hyperborea, Mu, Lemuria, Thule, Hybrasil, and all those other places that past cartographers thought existed and really didn't. Basically, this would be an alternative geography of Earth based on collective human imagination.
I want this to be a cooperative project. Each person involved does a portion of the world. When finished, the participants will equally own the finished product and be able to use it for their own purposes. For example: One person could use it for a board game and another person could use it to write stories, while another can base his computer role playing game on it and so on.

VeloNews Magazine – December 2010

Don't know the name Ben King? Get with the program. RadioShack signed the hot young talent for 2011. In the December issue, Brian Holcombe recounts King's amazing year, culminating with his remarkable solo win at the national championships. (One detail: After hours off the front, King grabbed a beer handed to him on the climb and, thinking his day was over, took a few swigs.
