Hello: Quick question about the wrist mount. Is the strap that wraps around the hand adjustable? I have big hands and I cant tell from the photo. Also, does the integrated wrist strap on the wrist mount have sufficient strap length to get around a dry glove? Let me know. Thanks ! John
Do you ship out to Europe ? I have seen in a question by someone else that the chargers are 200 V rated ? Adaptor isnt a problem.
Hello Caratz, yes we ship to Europe, and if you have the Sealife International Plug Adapters web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-516/168093/Sealife-International-Plug-Adapters.html. You should have no issues charging this light. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
Hello! Does Sola Dive 1200 possible to use at night in the sea? Can I use it as well on the ground instead of regular light? Does it include charger and battery? How much time take to recharge battery? Thank you for detail answer!
Hello! How much time (maximum) possible to be under water? Run time for sola dive1200 is 65min on high, and 160-on low...does it enough? Or is more safe to have light with more run time even with not chargeable batteries? Thank you very much! I am looking for gift for my son and dont want to buy wrong or unpractical one.
Hello, if your doing a normal night dive you don't really want the light on high unless your looking at something specific especially with a light with 1200 lumens. so a 160 min run time is plenty. Your son would be the coolest kid with the brightest light!

I have a problem: my contoller won't charge, at all. It works while connected to the charger, but my charging cable is extremely small. So the way I thought to play is connecting the controller with the short cable to a computer sitting next to me. That way, I could play not sitting right next to the television.
Problem is, when I connect the controller to the computer, it doesn't control the PS3, possibly because it is sync'd with the computer. How can I charge with the computer but still play with the PS3?
Thanks alot!

I no it costs money but there is a charging cable that is very long you can buy.
Is the cable your using the cable that came with with the ps3, the reason i ask is because i have a cable that fits the controller but i have the same problem as you, so i use the cable that came with my ps3 so i reckon it would be best if you buy a new extra long charging cable.The Last of Us, Anime, Rosie Jones

Do what shaz says. It's easier.
Or go into device manager and right click USB composite device, then disable it. The USB port will then be set to charge only and you should be able to connect to ps3 bluetooth.

By 1875, most wood type makers and some foundries offered X, XX, and XXX Condensed Gothics, Moderns, Clarendons & Antiques. Such compression fixes stroke weight, spacing & counters, limiting design to detail & horizontals. In this type, Jim Parkinson refines the XX Condensed with 20th century grace notes; FB 1995

Birth Place: Columbus, Ohio, USA
Born July 29, 1974 in Columbus, OH, Radnor developed an interest in acting purely by accident; after tagging along with friends to a high school theater audition, he decided that he could handle a role better than any of the other hopefuls, and tried out for the part himself. Turns in school productions of "Oklahoma!" and "Cabaret" cemented his desire to become an actor. After gaining more experience in local theater, he attended Kenyon College in Ohio, where he won the Paul Newman award from the theater department (Kenyon is Newman's alma mater). He continued his theater training at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where he earned an M.F.A. in acting.

Heartland uprising
Politics | Massive protests by illegals create a backlash that is spreading far away from the Border Belt
"Heartland uprising" Continued...
Homemakers for America founder and president Kimberly Fletcher knows when she got passionate about illegal immigration. It was when she turned on the television earlier this spring to see illegal immigrants on the news marching with Mexican flags. "When you see people marching in the streets encouraging others to be truant, disrupting traffic, vandalizing property, yelling out anti-American comments, waving Mexican flags in aspirations of becoming citizens of this country-that tends to get people upset."
What is she doing about it? Ms. Fletcher and a few other grass-roots leaders in Ohio recently formed SOS Borders, a neophyte organization hoping to ignite the grass roots against illegal immigration. But why an organization more than a thousand miles away from normal immigration battlegrounds like Texas or California? "We get asked that a lot. I think people in the heartland are waking up."
Across the country, the large-scale illegal immigrant protests that drew hundreds of thousands in Los Angeles, Dallas, and New York, as well as thousands in cities like Des Moines have touched off emotions far outside the Border Belt. But even as plans for a nationwide series of illegal immigrant protests scheduled for May 1 were finalized, organizers admit their efforts to raise awareness of the plight of illegal immigrants are having unintended consequences.
Polls indicate large numbers of Americans are finding their voice on the issue. A CBS News survey in April indicated that while almost all Americans regard illegal immigration as a problem, nearly 62 percent of Americans say it's a serious problem-up 11 percent from January, which was before immigrant protests. To help Congress kick-start immigration reforms that stalled last month, President George W. Bush invited leaders of both parties to the White House on April 25, saying, "I strongly believe that we have a chance to get an immigration bill that is comprehensive in nature to my desk before the end of this year."
Conservative leaders like Ms. Fletcher want to make sure a bill sent to the president's desk focuses on border security first rather than including provisions for a guest-worker program. "We don't think you can have an intelligent discussion about immigration until our borders are secure," said Ms. Fletcher. "If your toilet is overflowing, you don't mop up the water. You turn off the spigot first, then you mop up the water."
Tim Holloway, executive director of BattleGround PAC and another leader with SOS Borders, agrees. He said his interest was ignited specifically by seeing illegal immigrants march under the banner of Mexican flags. "It was in the back of my mind, but those protests brought the issue to the forefront," he said. "Clearly people, even people here in Ohio, are starting to lose patience and tolerance on this issue."
It's not the response protest organizer Ricardo Diaz wanted. Mr. Diaz helped organize the first immigrant protest, a showing of roughly 2,000 near Philadelphia's historic Liberty Bell, in order to protest specifically against the House version of immigration reform. Calls for amnesty are not part of the intended message, Mr. Diaz said. Since then, Mr. Diaz and his group, El Paro, have struggled both to create a coherent message and to inspire a group of people not used to translating private displeasure into public demonstration.
Mr. Diaz said he was shocked by the lack of public response when the House of Representatives approved H.R. 4437, the Rep. James Sensenbrenner-led immigration proposal that includes stiffened sanctions against immigrants and penalties against those who aid illegals. "Here we see the monster coming from the other side of the mountain and nobody was doing anything about it," Mr. Diaz said. But why would they, Mr. Diaz said, describing many Latinos as "Republicans in brown" who would rather work and be with their family than make waves in a protest scene usually dominated by liberals.
Mr. Diaz, whose new group, A Day Without Immigrants, is lead sponsor of the May 1 demonstrations, said the protests should send a clear signal: "We're saying no to felony categorizations, no to arresting anyone who helps immigrants. Those things are crazy in our mind."
He admits, though, that while grassroots organizers in the Latino community have been able to draw numbers, they've struggled to contain the message. He called the prominence of Mexican flags at the immigrant protests "a mistake." He said it would have been disrespectful to ask illegal immigrants risking deportation by protesting publicly to lay down the flags. Ahead of the latest round of protests this month, Mr. Diaz said organizers asked protesters to bring American flags to the demonstrations. "It's already been difficult to control the message," he said.
Why fixate on the symbolism? "We know that there are people who rightfully feel offended [from the previous protests]. We need to clarify the message and say this is not anti-U.S."
Immigrant purgatory
Considering what he's been through in the past five months, perhaps U.S. citizen Douglas Mickey should have followed his lawyer's tongue-in-cheek advice to smuggle his Chinese bride into the United States. Paying a coyote to smuggle her across the border would have certainly been cheaper than the approximate $4,000 he'll have to dole out for immigration lawyers and various fees associated with getting his wife a visa. If she gets a visa.
After more than five months of filling out forms, making phone calls, faxing letters, and sending e-mails, Mr. Mickey seems to have landed in bureaucratic purgatory-somewhere between outright rejection and an approved visa, simply waiting for something to happen. "I'm not stupid. I'm not illiterate. I graduated summa cum laude from my college. But I can't understand this process."
It's legal immigration. And, according to Mr. Mickey, it's harder than it sounds. While he watches immigration protests advocating amnesty for Latino migrants, Mr. Mickey reflects on his own travails bringing his wife back to his home state of New Jersey. "I'm following the rules," he said. "I definitely feel cheated."
Mr. Mickey, 50, left his job as a paralegal in Caldwell, N.J., to move to China to work with a missions agency teaching English in Xinzheng City. Along the way, he met a young woman named Wong Li through a recruitment letter from another organization, and their relationship grew through phone calls and conversations by e-mail and instant messaging. They met in person in October 2004 shortly before she moved to London to begin an MBA program. When he traveled to London the following January to ask her to marry him, she said yes. They were married on Sept. 27, 2005.
But winning her hand in marriage was easy compared to bringing her to the States. The couple hired an American immigration attorney living in China last December to start a process that Mr. Mickey says turned into a "nightmare." Mr. Mickey had to travel to Beijing to formally apply at the local Department of Homeland Security (DHS) office-open, he told WORLD, for only two hours on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
DHS referred his case to the U.S. consulate in Guangzhou. But he never got a case number, an unforeseen but immediate problem. When Mr. Mickey called to check on Li's visa application, "The first thing they said was, 'What's the case number?'" He knew he was in trouble. Mr. Mickey doesn't know if his paperwork was successfully transferred to the Guangzhou office or if it received his change of address notification. He should have heard something and have moved on to the next phase more than two months ago. He's heard nothing.
In the meantime, Mr. Mickey must return to New Jersey to take a job so he can prove to immigration officials he can support a wife. Li must return to London. "Here's the worst part: They say once my wife gets the next set of documents, it will be at least, at least five more months," he said. "I don't know how anybody does this."

I start to be desperate finding the solution to our problem.
We have a server in production that was running for some months already.
I just did a little thing and now it's a disaster, let me describe you so I hope someone can pinpoint me where to search.
The Zimbra version is now : Release 4.5.9_GA_1454.SuSEES9_20071016190714 SuSEES9 NETWORK edition
It is installed on a VMWARE ESX 2.5.3 with Virtual Center.
A few days ago I was looking on Zimbra website and seen the Zimbra_Samba admin Extension, curious, I downloaded it and deployed it trough the Zimbra Web Admin.
After that we never succeed to get back in the Zimbra Web Admin, it started loading after the login and stopped in the middle "loading".
Even after a Daemon restart, reboot, a CLI undeploy of the Zimbra_Samba, the result was still the same.
We decided to launch the last version of Zimbra : zcs-NETWORK-4.5.9_GA_1454.SuSEES9.tgz
After that the Admin Web access was working again, but another problem arised, Zimbra was getting down after a short time.(10min to 1 hour)
After some time of research on the subject, in the Logfiles an, and on this forum, we didnt get a real clue about what can be the problem we restored our Ldap database, without much better success.
And now here I am
I do a "zmcontrol start" and I get that ->
ldap Running
logger Running
mailbox Running
mta Running
snmp Running
spell Running
After some time I get this ->
ldap Stopped
logger Stopped
zmlogswatchctl is not running
mailbox Stopped
zmmtaconfigctl is not running
mysql.server is not running
zmconvertctl is not running
tomcat is not running
mta Stopped
zmmtaconfigctl is not running
postfix is not running
zmsaslauthdctl is not running
snmp Stopped
swatch is not running
spell Stopped
zmapachectl is not running
I dont know where I can start to resolve this problem.
I would be happy to receive some help
Best regards

First Step...Narrow down the hunts you can do by Season Date, Weapon, Tag availability, and success rate. Idaho has the best research tool of any state I've ever seen. The Hunt Planner.
Then get maps from the Various Public Land Agencies USFS, and BLM
The General USFS maps will highlight campgrounds and trailheads for access points. BLM maps will give more Topo detail.
That is where you start. A first post on a forum asking for spots won't usually get much traction. Kinda like waliking into a room full of strangers and askin' "Where should I go huntin'?" without getting to know the folks..
Good luck, and let us know how your research goes.

Not a bad thing at all. And with the 6.x DirecTiVo software upgrade, that wait was reduced to 15-30 seconds for my 35+ Seasons Pass list. That was on a box with a slower CPU with less memory, so I don't see this as a "lack of horsepower" issue on the HR2x platform, but rather a database programming algorithm issue.
IComplain about that 'please wait' when you redid your tivo to-do list, but that long look ahead through 12-14 days of recordings to make sure everything was set to record properly and you knew about conflicts maybe wasnt such a bad thing.
Having to check the TODO list daily (or in some cases more than once a day) gets tired real fast, IMHO, even assuming folks have the time to do it. While I believe it should be automatic every time a new SL or single record is scheduled, a future recording is deleted, or the PRIORITIZER is re-ordered, we have a request on the Wish List for the option to force an immediate rebuild of the TODO list using all available GUIDE data. For those that like this idea and haven't already voted for it. please do so at the link below. TIA. /steve

House paint just ain't cutting it anymore.
We've found a local shop that sells the TINY (like, 4oz) jars of Speedball acrylic, but they're so tiny. Curry's only sells 8oz jars, Aboveground sells 32oz Speedball acrylic for $20.99... and that's all we can find.
In Canada, at least.
I'm tired of lining UPS's pockets, so I'd like to avoid brokerage fees from ordering across the border.
So, fellow canucks, what sort of inks do you use, and where do you get 'em?

I'm with ya. My favorites were the XL1200R, the XL883R, and then the XL883 (like I have). I do like the XR1200 that came out in Europe first, but I'm hearing rumors that it will be dropped too. That will leave us with the Nightser,Iron,48,XL1200C,XL1200L and I think the XL883L. How about something along these lines:http://www.bikeexif.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/wakan_roadster_1_hundred.jpg But built in house at HD using an XL engine and not at $20,000.00? Something that goes well, handles and stops. jon
Harley is keeping the XR1200 and adding another XR model to the line, the XR1200x which has an upgraded suspension.

Renewables, Oil and Security
From Colorado to Iran
The national security angle of renewable energy occasionally gains resonance and that nexus will be highlighted in a forum on February 27.
That seems apropos in the current news cycle, but saber-rattling in Iran and the attendant threat to oil supplies hasn't seemed to move clean energy forward, but has only heightened the oil-first argument.
That bothers retired vice Admiral Dennis McGinn, who also happens to head the American Council on Renewable Energy.
McGinn and Rear Admiral Neil Morisetti (Ret.) of the British Royal Navy will participate in a public forum on National Security & America's Energy Future at Colorado State University (CSU) on Monday evening.
McGinn, who has traveled through the vulnerable Strait of Hormuz numerous times, understands the risk of economic damage a closure would cause.
"It's just the latest in our fears about the disruption of supply and the cascading effects on our economy because of oil prices going up," he said.
He wants renewables to be part of the conversation about diverse supplies, but the politicized debates in Washington seem to make fossil fuels and renewables an either-or proposition.
"Even though we have some additional supplies in the U.S. it's not going to solve our problems in the long-term or the near-term, either," McGinn said.
"One of the things I worry about is with the emphasis on domestic production of oil we'll somehow feel complacent, that we'll be able to do everything we need to do if we're simply able to exploit our domestic sources," he added.
A purpose of the Colorado event is to tie the perspectives together, by tying the national security components to economic development and cleaner energy sourcing.
"We need the kind of policy at the state and federal level that encourage the development of a much broader energy choices, whether for electricity production or transportation."
McGinn said Colorado is a national leader, but the recent stalemate in Washington threatens that.
"We hope to continue the leadership discussion as Colorado has developed good policies and continued to make investments that encourage private sector investment in renewables," he said. "I'm hoping that that chemistry continues, for Colorado to develop a diverse energy portfolio."
McGinn hopes momentum over the past couple years that has stalled is not lost.
"If we can't get over the politics, then we're really squandering the opportunity to do what people in both parties say they want to do."
Rear Admiral Neil Morisetti is the U.K.'s Climate and Energy Security Envoy. Vice Admiral Dennis McGinn (Ret.) is Vice Chair of CNA's Military Advisory Board (CNA MAB), an elite panel of some of the nation's highest-ranking retired admirals and generals who study issues critical to our national security. Reports by the CNA MAB were among the first to identify America's over-dependence on fossil fuels as a national security threat - economically, military and diplomatically.

No Mention of Nuclear
Everybody has their own version of what it means to "eat their peas". The cost of wind, solar and the storage technology required to displace conventional fossil fuel generation remains prohibitively high...especially since there is no commercialy viable bulk storage technology. There is nothing we can do now on the energy front to mitigate the effects of OPEC idiocy particularly that effecting safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
The start of a lucid enegy plan would have the US building nuclear plants near existing transmission corredors on a war-effort scale. Unfortunately, we've squandered much of the national treasure on boondoggles fostered by Big Green, Big Renewables and an "all things green at any price" initiative based on hokey "conseusus science".
If we could actually muster the national conscience toward nuclear power, the 100 years or so of natural gas reserves we have could then be diverted toward vehicles. Step 2 of "energy independence" might then be pushed far enough into the future to allow for the development of some new, creative resources....and perhaps battery technology will improve markedly.
The Cost of Secure Shipping
Indeed the national security angle is usually given short shrift. We import more than half the oil we use and even if most of those imports come from friendly countries, the price is still determined in a world market that is subject to a number of security risks. If shippers around the world had to pay for the security provided by the US military and paid for by US taxpayers, my guess is it would add from $10 to $50 per barrel to the delivered cost of crude. That never gets factored into the debate over the cost-effectiveness of electric vehicles, for example.
Politicians have also made the price of gasoline a political issue to be exploited for their own benefit. I'm very mindful of the impact higher gasoline prices have on working families, but it's hard to be sympathetic in those cases where working families made poor choices and the folks they elected to govern all of us consistently opposed efforts to raise fuel economy standards. This isn't a case of blaming the victim. Instead, it's a metaphorical lesson about why eating your peas is the healthier choice. We had plenty of warning about our vulnerablity to oil prices more than 30 years ago and we chose not to heed it. Now we get to pay the price.

Tasting Notes with Jim Beauregard -- Jim's best for 2012: Ten beers of note
As the year of tasting goes on, when I find a candidate for the list, it goes into a file. At the end of the year, I review the file and pick out the 10 most distinctive beers to pass on to you.
Criteria? Well, it has to be well made; that is, free of any obvious faults. That's the easy part. Then, a well-integrated production that has variety and interest. Admittedly, such a list has to have some subjective character - your list might differ significantly from mine. So if you favorite isn't here, feel free to bump one of mine.
10. Porter, Founders Brewery, 6.5% abv. Lovely, dark and deep. Dark tan head, black beer, intense coffee aroma, rich and compelling. No hops on the nose, all malt and kernel. Rich creamy palate, good weight again, very rich coffee flavors, chocolate in the background, well integrated alcohol again, mouth-filling flavors that linger long after you swallow. Delicious.
9. Samuel Adams Porch Rocker, "Beer with natural flavors added," no abv listed. Inspired by a traditional German mix of beer with lemonade (don't blanch; we're good here). Yellow-amber hue under a very frothy white head, super spicy nose that jumps out of the glass at you, with cinnamon and cloves, honey hints, citrus, off-dry on the palate, with medium bitterness, though it's really the flavor profile just mentioned that marches forward, fruit, spice and hops, and just that hint of sweetness from the malt.
8. Duvel Belgian Golden Ale, Bottle Conditioned, 8.5% abv. Huge frothy head, as a Belgian ale should have, lasting, with cloudy golden beer (the bottle conditioned part), medium malt, medium-plus hops, citrus, lemon, orange peels and some bread on the nose, a dry palate, with medium-plus bitterness, medium-plus acidity, mouth watering, medium-plus alcohol that is balanced and well-integrated, medium body, and medium-plus flavors reflecting the palate. Medium-plus to long finish. Very good.
7. Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout, 5.0% abv. Average head, an in color, over brown-black beer, high intensity malt nose, low hops. The palate is medium-dry (a little sweetness), well-balanced, medium-plus bitterness from the hops, medium acidity, medium and well-integrated alcohol, full body, creamy texture, high flavor intensity of chocolate, some coffee hints in the background. Pair with chocolate cake, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, anything chocolate.
6. The Orkney Brewery Dragonhead Stout, Scotland, 4.0% abv. Dark brown head, black beer underneath, the nose is all about malt. Off-dry, creamy heavy weight and full body, medium acidity, well integrated components, high flavor intensity that runs along the kernel route - espresso/coffee, chocolate, roasted flavors, rich and intense, the finish goes on long after the beer goes down. Striking.
5. Pale Ale, Dry Hopped, Founders Brewery, 5.4% abv. Slightly off-white frothy head, vibrant golden beer underneath, cloudy, lots of bubbles shooting up from the bottom, very hoppy nose, citrus, lemon and lime, floral, hints of resin. The palate is dry, with lots of hops bitterness, good acidity, medium-plus carbonation, balanced alcohol, medium body, medium texture, medium-plus flavor intensity of citrus, bitterness, lemon, spice, resin. Long, pleasing finish. Lighter than a typical pale ale, but very good nonetheless. It says summer.
4. Samuel Adams Octoberfest, Seasonal Brew, 5.3% abv. Darker beers are coming along now with the cool weather on the horizon. Off-white head, amber beer with a little hint of orange. The nose is malt, and the bottle mentions the use of five roasted malts in the brewing. Served cold, it's dry on the palate, mildly bitter, with some hops in the background, integrated alcohol, medium body, medium texture, and flavors of caramel, grain hints, cereal, but leaning toward the sweet on the finish.
3. Chimay Peres Trappistes Cinq Cents (light yellow label), 8% abv. A Belgian Tripel. The Tripel style presents with malt and spice, also with clear fruit aromas. For the Chimay, it's golden beer under a just off-white head, creamy and large, with a predominantly hops nose, though the malt is certainly there. The palate is dry and this is the beer that shops hops. Good bitterness and acidity, well-integrated alcohol, medium body, heading toward light, medium-plus hops citrus flavors with malt in the background. Medium-plus length finish. This is the drink-on-a-hot-summer-night beer. Food pairings include pork, richer/heavier seafood, including lobster and fish steaks. Try it with a creme brulee for dessert.
2. Dubuisson Scaldis 12, Pipaix, Belgium, 12% abv. "Belgium is to beer what Cuba is to cigars and France is to wine," says Garrett Oliver of the Oxford Companion to Beer. This brings us into the Belgium ale ballpark, and into the subset of Belgian strong ale The "12" in Scaldis 12 refers to the alcohol by volume. This puts us in the "strong" category. These beers tend to be pale to gold in coloring, with flavors of both fruit (leaning toward pear and apple), and spice, heavier on the hops, and lighter on the malt. This one is golden-colored, cloudy, with a slightly off-white head, thick, creamy and lasting, with the characteristic Belgian lace (tip the glass so the head goes right out to the tip, then stand it up to see the lace). The nose is very intense and rich with hops and fruit. The palate is very dry, and very, very rich, medium-plus bodied, heavier than, say, a Duvel, with citrus and white fruit, pear predominating, citrus in the background, and soft malt all along the way. It packs a punch at 12% abv. Spicy finish that goes on for quite some time.
And topping the list:
1. Samuel Adams Verloren Gose, 8.0% abv, 1 pint bottle. If the word Gose (pronounced Goes-uh) isn't familiar, you are not alone. It is a little-known beer style, based on a wheat ale. Since few people might be familiar with it, Sam Adams chose the name "Lost" (Verloren) to bring it back to our attention. It includes a bit of salt and also coriander. It contains both malted and unmalted wheat.
The style goes back to the 10th century in Saxony (Germany), where people were still experimenting because the Beer Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) hadn't come into force just yet. Over the past century, the beer slowly went out of style, such that few remember it today. It doesn't even have an entry in the Oxford Companion to Beer.
Unfiltered and therefore hazy, golden-brown colored (leaning more toward the gold), it has a creamy head that lasts and a malty cereal nose with some hops lingering in the background. Bright and intense on the palate, dry with low medium bitterness, good acidity (makes the mouth water), medium carbonation, and 8% alcohol that is very well-integrated, medium body and texture, and intense flavors of malt-related grain and hay, hints of nuttiness, and a strong citrus profile that starts in the background but moves to the forefront on the way to the finish. An excellent rediscovery.
So there they are. Next week: my top 10 wines of 2012.

Recently Opened Restaurants
by Julie Besonen, 05/22/2013
Gazpacho. Photo: Jesus Nunez

2 Bank St., 212-463-0090, West Village, Manhattan
Salvador Dalí would be twisting his moustache with amusement at the cleverness of Spanish chef Jesús Núñez. At his new Mediterranean restaurant, Melibea, he deconstructs tiramisu and composes a zany still-life study of tomatoes, curled, sliced, puréed, dried and metamorphosed into tomato marshmallows and tomato powder. A gable of what looks like crispy bacon slices turn out to be smoky strips of eggplant concealing a vessel of moussaka. It's one of his best dishes, a delicious stew with hints of cinnamon, spicy béchamel and melting hunks of venison instead of lamb. Melibea, the sister restaurant of Barraca, next door, is named for the object of love in Fernando de Rojas's 15th-century tragicomedy La Celestina. The theatrical theme comes through with raised-platform seating and flattering lighting. The menu touches on Iberian, Greek, Italian, French and Israeli influences, all seen through Núñez's prism, and is matched by a wine list reflecting similar origins.

Behind the music
NPR theme songs are made possible by the generous contributions of this guy.
By Ken Otterbourg
There are two types of people in America: those who listen to public radio, and those who don't. One group has no idea who wrote the music for many of its most popular programs. The other knows without hesitation: BJ Leiderman. His tunes include the theme songs for Washington, D.C.-based NPR's — formerly National Public Radio's — Morning Edition and Weekend Edition, the news quiz show Wait, Wait ... Don't Tell Me! and his latest, Science Friday, as well as the "Stump the Chumps" segment of Car Talk. He composed the infectious anthem of St. Paul, Minn.-based American Public Media's Marketplace. Its vaguely exotic background beat and dizzying opening gong evoke the energy of the trading floor.
"He's been the musical sound of public radio," says Jim Russell, who created Marketplace, which went on the air in early 1989, and produced and helped anchor Morning Edition and All Things Considered in the 1970s. He recognized Leiderman's talent for writing songs that capture what a show tries to accomplish, whether that's move programming from classical music to news or make people want to listen to stories about business. "BJ gets inside the skin of the program. If you can understand what you're listening to in the first few seconds of the show, that's the ultimate compliment."
Leiderman, 58, moved to the outskirts of Asheville from his native Virginia Beach nearly two years ago. He rents a little cabin with a sweet view of the Swannanoa River valley and the high peaks beyond. His studio is in a spare bedroom, where he composes on an electronic keyboard hooked to a computer that allows him to manipulate sounds and create effects. He's immersed in a wide range of projects, from creating music for a manufacturer's trade group to helping Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies in Gatlinburg, Tenn.
The BJ stands for Bernard Jay, and the initials are what he has been called since he was a kid. He took piano lessons, but most of his musical training came from learning to cover Beatles songs. He doesn't read music, but he hears things and understands the power of sound and how music stirs something deep within souls. And he understands that a theme song has a job to do. "What you want to do as a composer is make sure your music is not the reason people turn the dial. That's the minimum. The maximum — if you do your job — is that people are going to hear your music and there's something that is going to bypass their brain and go straight to their heart. There's emotion, and it goes, 'Ah.'"
Leiderman attended American University in Washington, D.C., but didn't graduate. His first commercial work was for a Nautilus Health Club, and he started putting together a demo tape. He had relatives who worked at NPR, and Leiderman's tape arrived just as Russell and his team were preparing to launch Morning Edition. There was a start date but no music, and time was running out to put together a signature sound to rouse drowsy listeners from their slumber. "This thing just came out when I sat down at the piano," Leiderman recalls. "It was one of those McCartney moments … hardly an effort at all." Russell's response: "My God, you've done it."
Through the years, his work has been refreshed but never replaced. "My music, people actually like to hear it. It has — what they call in the business — legs. It has longevity. It wears well on your ears." But longevity doesn't pay the bills. Leiderman won't say what he receives for his compositions, though Russell says the commission for the Marketplace music was probably around $10,000. Leiderman sees a consistent stream of royalty payments through the New York-based American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers — ASCAP. He also worked in advertising, with clients that included Tyco Toys, now part of El Segundo, Calif.-based Mattel Inc., and Nickelodeon, the cable channel owned by New York-based Viacom Inc. But none of this has made him a wealthy man.
What he has come to realize is that he's his own brand. "I'm a prime example of somebody being a great marketer for no product." That's changing later this year, when he plans to release an album of songs. The tentative title is Natural Public Leiderman. "The fire's hot," he quips. "I've got to get in right now." There's another reason he's in a hurry. Leiderman has Lyme disease, and it's slowly sapping his energy. He wants to make music while his ability to hear the world and all the wondrous sounds therein still works well.

Brain Puzzle Winner, Wins!
Damrongsak Wirasaet of Mishawaka, Indiana, crushed my brain puzzle posed in a TNB on June 18. Wirasaet correctly noted that if you have an 80-meter rope and want to climb as high as possible, and lower off twice, that your first anchor would be at 60 meters, letting you lower 20 meters to a second station at 40 meters. From 40 meters, a doubled 80-meter rope would get you safely to the ground. Wirasaet is an assistant research professor in civil engineering at the University of Notre Dame. He started climbing five years ago, and read Clip and Go, a little book John Long and I co-authored.
For his prize, Wirasaet shall received a signed copy of Clip and Go, and a pair of Petzl Ascension ascenders. Use them safely my friend.
Stay tuned for more Brain Puzzles, guaranteed to make you a safer and smarter climber or your money back.

I don't think so. YouTube it and see if there is video of a calf elk calling out.
I am a Michigan hunter and have finally drawn a Michigan antler less elk tag. My question is this, will a fawn bleat such as the call made by primos commonly known as the "can" work for calling cow elk? My season opens Dec. 7th and I was hoping that some of the western elk hunters or someone with more experience with elk hunting can answer my question.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I don't think so. YouTube it and see if there is video of a calf elk calling out.
I don't Break the rules, I Modify them.
Up in the Pigeon River Forest where you'll be hunting they normally just drive the two tracks looking for animals. Most of those who draw tags contact a local up there who knows where the animals are and can put you on them. I've hunted elk out in Wyoming and several other western states for 20 years and I doubt seriously that you'll call an elk with that can, although if you have animals in the area and want to stop one for a shot it might work. The best thing would be to spend a few bucks and get a cow call since your tag is really a OIL for the most part here in Michigan. The Primos Hootchie Mama or better yet the calf call they make would be the way to go and it doesn't require any practice since it merely requires you to push a rubber part to make the sound. Good luck with your hunt.
I have the primos hoochie mama an cow girl calls both easy to use they make a baby hoochie now have not got one yet maybe what you need for this trip. If they been hunted hard they maybe not answer may go away from you
The hoochie mama calls will work for you. Youtube cow/calf elk calls like Ikeepitcold suggested and you'll notice the difference between female elk sounds and female deer sounds. I don't think a bleat would work at all on elk other than a 'shock factor' result, similar to whistling at them, possibly slowing them down if on the move, but it may just make them run faster.
Hum, I guess I never tried to call a cow elk, I wouldn't have even considered that as a tactic. Good luck, I hope what ever tactic you use works, have fun!
***Elk are a very social animal and cow calling can be used to bring cows and calves in, as well as to settle down ones in an area that may have got a glimpse of you or heard you moving in brush, etc. It will not make any difference though if they get a whiff of human scent. If bulls are not answering a call, cow calling will sometimes bring females in with a bull following them, especially when the rut is coming on.
Calling cows can work decently. You'll call in a cow looking for lost calf, calf looking for lost mom, or call in singles/doubles that are lost from a group. It's been my experience that the reed style, either diaphragm or hand call, work better than a hoochie mama call since you're able to induce emotion into the calling with different duration's on different notes giving you the ability to sound like more than one elk. Just keep in mind that no two elk will sound alike when calling so if you make a mistake, just keep right on rockin' to hold their attention.
IMO I would be cautious about using any calls this time of year as most of the "calling in" time is long past. I would personally limit cow calling this time of year to only when I am trying to get an animal to stop for a shot. I would bet that the chances of you even hearing many cows talking is going to be quite low. Get to a good vantage point and glass the feeding and bedding areas, if the terrain allows for it, and then plan a stalk from there. If not I would try to find fresh sign and try to sit on a feeding or bedding area that is being frequented and wait for the elk to come to you. Good luck, hope to see some pictures soon.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- It looks like the Redskins' star quarterback won't be hanging out at the Marine Corps Ball.
We told you last week about Sgt. Jimmy Shea and Crystal Shea's YouTube invite to Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III and his wife, Rebecca (http://on.wusa9.com/18FixCV). Sgt. Shea and his wife were hoping RGIII could attend Shea's last Marine Corps Ball on November 2nd, but it looks like that won't be happening.
See the video here: http://youtu.be/n0VVg7kciMQ
After days of wondering how RGIII would respond, we finally saw him reply to Sgt. Shea on Twitter.
He wrote: "Dear @jimmydshea, Yes, you & your wife are hilarious and im honored by your invite to the Marine Corps Ball...It's the day before a game so I can't make is @jimmydshea"
The Redskins play against the Chargers at FedEx Field Nov. 3 at 1 p.m.

Brouillette, Henderson Finish 22nd, 23rd at Zones
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – Iowa State divers Jessica Henderson and Elyse Brouillette wrapped up day-one of the NCAA Zone 'D' Diving Championships at the University Aquatics Center today with a pair of top-25 finishes on the one-meter board. Brouillette led the duo with a 22nd-place 257.30-point performance, followed closely by Henderson who posted 254.50 points in a 23rd-place finish.
"I think they dove well today," Iowa State head diving coach Jeff Warrick said. "I can safely say that they didn't dive as well as they did at Big 12s, but they were very solid."
With the top-18 scores advancing to finals, Brouillette and Henderson missed the cut by just 12.10 and 14.90-points, respectively. According to Warrick, the "little things" – such as take offs and entries – prevented each of his divers from a fourth-consecutive finals appearance dating back to the Big 12 Conference Championships.
"I think they left some points out there," Warrick said. "We just have to do those little things better tomorrow, be a little sharper. I'm confident they can do that."
While day one was cut short for Iowa State's top divers, a finals appearance tomorrow in the three-meter event is "well within their grasp," according to Warrick.
"I think they came away today feeling pretty confident about their diving," Warrick said. "They know they can do a little better, but they both dove really well."
The Cyclones will be back in the diving well at the University Aquatics Center tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. CT for three-meter prelims with finals directly following.

Anaheim, CA (Sports Network) - Chris Sale didn't flirt with a no-hitter this
time, but again sailed along against the LA Angels of Anaheim.
Sale followed his one-hitter and first career shutout against the Angels last
Sunday by blanking them for 7 2/3 innings in this one, and the Chicago White
Sox picked up a 3-0 win in the second test of a four-game set.
Sale (5-2) had his perfect game broken up by Mike Trout with one out in the
seventh inning in his last outing. The southpaw, who extended his scoreless
inning streak to 23, fanned 12 and surrendered just three hits and three walks
to pick up the win.
Alex Rios and Adam Dunn smacked solo homers for Chicago, which has won a
season-high four consecutive tilts.
Addison Reed fired a 1-2-3 ninth to notch his 14th save of the year.
C.J. Wilson (3-3), who matched zeroes with Sale for six innings before giving
up three in the seventh Sunday, was again the hard-luck loser. He allowed two
runs on six hits and two walks over seven frames for the Angels, who have
dropped five of their last six games.
The White Sox pushed across a run in the first, seventh and ninth.
Rios extended his hitting streak to 12 games in the opening frame when he
launched a two-out solo shot into the rock pile in left center.
Dayan Viciedo had a one-out single to center in the seventh, advanced to
second on Jeff Keppinger's groundout and scored when Conor Gillaspie slapped a
single to center.
Dunn scalded a one-out liner over the wall in left in the ninth to increase
Chicago's margin to 3-0.
Trout reached third in the first, but the Angels only got a runner to second
one other time in the contest.
Game Notes
Sale is 10-0 lifetime against the AL West ... Rios and Viciedo both had two
hits ... Chicago was 1-for-4 with runners in scoring position, while the
Angels were 0-for-3 with RISP.

When it comes time to remove your cosmetics at the end of the day, you want a formula that does its job effectively without any unpleasant side effects. Unfortunately, many eye makeup remover formulas are oily and leave behind a residue that can clog the pores. Some dry out the skin with harsh astringents or alcohol, and other formulas are so gentle that they are ineffective at removing waterproof cosmetics. For more than 75 years, the Boots No7 Eye Makeup Remover range has been the number one seller in the UK, attesting to its ability to deliver results without unwanted side effects.
The Boots No7 Eye Makeup Remover collection was tested on more than 200,000 people prior to its release on the market. This rigorous testing helps ensure that the Boots No7 Eye Makeup Remover formulas do precisely what they are intended to without leaving the skin congested or dry. All of the Boots No7 Eye Makeup Remover products are hypoallergenic as well, so you can select a formula from the collection to use even on the most sensitive skin.
No matter what your skin type, there is a Boots No7 Eye Makeup Remover that is ideal for you.
Boots No7 Quick Thinking Wipes - Value Pack makes it easy to remove your makeup virtually anywhere, so it's perfect for transitioning your look from day to night or to use before a complete reapplication at the office. The formula comes on pre-moistened towelettes that you simply sweep across your eye area and the rest of your complexion and then toss away. To dissolve makeup, the wipes contain witch hazel and fennel.
Boots No7 Beautiful Skin Eye Makeup Remover is a lightweight makeup remover that is highly effective at eliminating cosmetics, even waterproof mascaras. The secret to the makeup-dissolving actions of the eye makeup remover is its dual action formula, which contains an oil-based surfactant and a water-based surfactant. You can see the two ingredients separated in the bottle until you shake before use to mix the formula. The formula is pH neutral to prevent skin irritation.
Boots No7 Beautiful Skin Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover is intended for those with oily complexions. The formula contains only water-based surfactants, so the eye makeup remover will not contribute to skin congestion or leave behind a greasy feeling or shine on already oily skin. As it lifts away all types of cosmetics, the product conditions and hydrates the skin with glycerin, and it leaves behind antioxidants to protect the eye area and the rest of the complexion from oxidative damage.

Barnes acts as 'home wrecker' during Homecoming game
Friday nights' game between Independence and the host South Meck Sabres took a while to get action going on either side of the ball. Both teams went scoreless in the first quarter. It was not seconds into the second quarter when, Patriots QB Jason Connella connected with his favorite wide out, Dequan Barnes for an 18 yard touchdown catch. Indy went up first, seven to zero at 11:09 left in the second quarter. About three minutes later, Connella kept the ball and ran it 16 yards for the second score of the night for Indy. The extra point was good, and the Patriots were up 14-0 with 8:08 minutes left in the first half.
Defense makes big plays
Senior Jack Tocho made some big plays in the next possession of the ball by South. Tocho made an open field tackle that prevented the Sabres from scoring and also intercepted a pass in the end zone to stop South as they marched down the field into Indy territory.
Getting looks
Barnes would get one more look from Conella before the end of the half. This time, he caught a five yard TD pass with 19 seconds to go before the half. The extra point was no good but Indy led 20-0 at halftime. It would take Independence almost five minutes before they were able to score in the third quarter. Connella looked Barnes' way again and threw him a 65-yard TD pass. The score is: Indy 27, South Meck 0. Almost four minutes later the Connella-Barnes duo connected again, this time with 29-yard TD pass in the third quarter. The Patriot defense had two more big plays during the next two possessions of the ball by South. Defensive back Deion Washington saved an open field TD run by bringing down the Sabre ball carrier, stopping him on the Independence 14 yard line. Senior LB Chris Turpin put an end to the Sabre drive when he intercepted a pass.
