Abilene Reporter-News, The (Newspaper) - May 16, 1970, Abilene, Texas gbttene 3 STAR FINAL "WITHOUT OR WITH OFFENSE TO FRIENDS OR FOES WE SKETCH YOUR WORLD EXACTLY AS IT ABILKNE, TEXAS, 79604, SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 16, 1970-THIRTY-SIX PAGES WTWO SECTIONS lOc SUNDAY Brown wood Puts X to 'Midnight Cowboy' HOFFMAN By DAVE FAIR Reporter-News Correspondent BROWNWOOD (RNS) The "Midnight Cowboy" bit the dust, so lo speak, Friday afternoon as police officers armed wilh a search warrant confiscated the "best movie of the year" and arrested a drive in theater manager. Floyd Allred, manager of the Bluffview Drive In, was arrested by Police Chief Bill Donation but was released on bond. The incident stemmed from [he showing of the X-rated motion picture "Midnight Cow- boy" at the drive-in theater Thursday night. The film, starring Dustin Hoff- man and Jon Voight, received last year's Academy Award for the best motion picture of the year and was nominated for several others. Donahoo signed a complaint before Brown County Atty. Gary Price which charged the show- ing of an obscene film, "Mid- night Cowboy." Brown County Judge W. 0. Breedlove issued a search war- rant for Ihe film. Trice said many movie viewers had complained after going to the film thinking it was a western and being shocked. Earlier this year, Police Chief Donahoo launched a campaign against obscene materials in the city. These included items found on local newsstands as well as motion pictures. The chief had urged voluntary compliance cleaning up all obscene materials in Brownwood. According to information re- ceived late Friday, a motion had been filed for a permanent injunction to prohibit the showing of "Midnight Cowboy" at the theater. But 35ih Dist. Atty. George Day was out of town and could not be reached for confirmation. Hoffman and Voight were both nominated for "best actor" for their roics in the film, and two songs from the movie ranked at the top of most radio station charts across the country. While (he motion picture had an X (adults only) rating, it had completed a showing several months ago at Interstate's Bowie theater in downtown Brown wood. The Abilene Reporter News contacted Allred Friday for comment. "I won't issue a state- ment he said. "I am sure we will issue one at a later time." The Bluffview Drive In Is owned by Video Independent of Oklahoma City which owns numerous theaters in Texas and Oklahoma. Reaction was mixed con- cerning the incident Friday. Some young adults spoke out against the seizing of the film and the subsequent arrest, but most older citizens who' were contacted by newsmen for an opinion applauded the action. Several said they "com- mended the police chief for his action." VOIGHT Painting their wagon Debby Kersey, left, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. E.

The Pentagon said Col. Eliza- beth P. Hoisington, director of the Women's Army Corps, and Col. Anna Mae Hays, chief of the Army Nurse Corps, have been selected by the President for promotion to the temporary rank of brigadier general. Congress authorized general officer rank for women three years ago, but this is the first time that any woman in uniform has been picked to wear a star. Col. Hoisington, a native of Newton, Kan., enlisted in the World War H Women's Army Auxiliary Corps in 1942 and wa.s commissioned a year later. She became director of the WAC In August 1966. Col. Hays, born In Buffalo, N.Y., also entered the Army in World War II, first serving in 1942 as an operating room nurse. She became chief of the Army Nurse Corps In Septem- ber CoL HoWngtoo ta a of the College of Notre Dame of Maryland. Col. Hays received her nurses' training in Allen- town, Pa., her nursing educa- tion degree from Columbia Uni- versity, and a master's degree from Catholic University.

Rain Eases Up Over Big Country Abilene and most of the area dried up somewhat Friday as the rains stopped over most of the Big Country. A few towns however, receiv- ed over an inch of rain.

(Ihe electric company) has been installing new meters while people are leaving town.'" Hileman said that since the publication of the census figures Thursday, the chamber office has already received several calls from people who were not counted. Dr. Johnson said he feels that the actual figures for Amarillo and for the metropolitan area are more than and near- ly respeclively. If the preliminary census fig- ures stand, Dr. Johnson said, "the drop would have a great impact on Amarillo's future." A city with a declining population cannot attract new business, he said, and advertising media would probably lost some na- tional accounts. Hileman said Amarillo will "Weed" economically if the fig- ures are not revised before they become official this summer. City Manager John Stiff said Thursday that population ba- rometers he bad reviewed ail indicated the census figure was too low. "It is difficult to accept the preliminary 1970 census count as Stiff said.

The panel said "the testimony of the officers involved is mate- rially inconsistent with ihe physical evidence." It said, however, it could not resolve tlie problems and deter- mine whether any civil rights were violated because of the re- fusal of the Panthers involved to testify. Panther leaders, Fred Hampton and Mark Clark, wore killed in the Dec. 4 raid on Hampton's apartment. Seven were arrested. Tfie seven declined lo testify on the ground that the jury was not formed of their peers. The jury of leading Chica- goans appointed by the coroner included 21 whites and two Negroes. The grand jury report said a search of the apartment after the raid by technicians from the Chicago Police Department and the Cook County slate's attor- ney's office wa.s superficial and disorganized. II said the search uncovered only 77 of 151 pieces of "ballistically identifiable evi- dence ultimately taken from the apartment, by other officials. "Any crime scene investiga- tion which uncovei's barely half the relevant evidence must be seriously the re- port said. The grand jury also was criti- cal of the Panthers for refusing to testify. "Given the political nature of the Panthers, the grand jury is forced to conclude that they are more interested in the issue ot police, persecution than Uiey are in obtaining justice. "It is a sad fact of our society that such groups can transform such issues into donations, sym- pathy and membership without ever submitting to impartial fact-finding by anyone. Perhaps Ihe short answer is that revolu- tionary groups simply do not want the legal system to work." Stale charges against the sev- en arrested in the raid were dropped a week ago when the slate's attorney reported (here was insufficient evidence to sup- port (he charges of attempted murder, armed violence and other crimes. The raiding officers had testi- fied they suspected the apart- ment was occupied by Panther members, whom they believed would not hesitate to use fire- arms against police, 'nicy said they were met by gunfire when they tried to servo a searcli wan-ant for a cache of weapons reportedly hidden at the apart- ment. New Courthouse Changes Pending By JIM CONLHY Reporter-News Staff Writer Several proposed changes In the plans for the new Taylor County Courthouse, including the combining of the features of two floors into one and the deletion of several private rest- rooms, will be brought before the county commissioners Tuesday. Architects Jack Luther and .Tamos Tittle of Tittle, Luther, living and I.cc Architects and Engineers, who are designing the building, confirmed Friday that they will propose the changes. The major change they will call for will be to combine the features formerly planned for the first and second floors Into a first floor wilh a large lobby space. Luther said the tax and county clerk offices had been planned for the first floor and a lobby- informalion-memorial area had been planned for the second floor. Luther pointed out that the plans still allowed for most of the features of both floors to be on the first floor. "We are simply recom- mending that the courthouse not devote an entire floor to a lobby if the building is to be constructed within the budget. We can still have plenty of lobby, information and memorial he said. The Imifgct is also a factor In deleting several private rest- rooms from the plans, Luther said. The plans will call for rest- rooms on all five floors, one men's and one women's, except the fourth floor, which will contain courtrooms, will have a toilet for each judge's chamber and a men's and women's toilet for each witness room. There Turn to COUNTY, Pg. 2-A NEVER, VOW WOMEN Serve the Public? All Right, But Share Their Toilets? By COM.ICY Knportcr-News Staff Wrllcr "No privale rcstrooms in the new courthouse? Oh, groan- ed a clerk in one of the offices of the County Courthouse Friday when she heard Ihe news. "How could they do another groaned. "I'll wait all day before I use the public one." About a women clus- tered together, discussing reports that the architects of the new courthouse were planning to recommend deletion of the office reslrooms when they meet with County Commisslonera Tuesday. Architect Jack Luther called it "an economic to bring the courthouse within its fcodget WHILE THE men remained stoic, the ladies made no of their disappointment a reporter asked them "Why the Everyone made H clear lhat they didn't object to the public M k whole bul to outwardly imkempt and dirty people who, Ihcy say, "make some court house public rcstrooms un- bearable." The office personnel on Die first flnor, where some 49 women work all or part of each day, were the most outspoken on the "injustice." One said she would rathrr share a restroom wilh male employes than to use Ihe type of public restroom which is near her office now. ANOTHER BACKED up her criticism wilh the reasoning: "The county commissioners will each have an office hut they put In one bathroom for 60 women." Even Judges could not es- cape the wrath of the females, who by then were In a barely controlled frenzy. -C "Why should judge have his own bathroom? I'm an employe, one said. "We all the public." also ranged lo iBdlcrom, "I guess we'll have to bring our own potty chairs "-or disposable diapers." "They'd better get the kidney transplants another said, "because none, of us are going to use the public bath- room." A FEMALE sheriff's deputy had some tongue in sympathy for the women. "We may have a pot to spare Over she said, "if they ever get this building finished." Architect Jack Luther of the firm planning the courthouse said the public restrooms will bo cleaner and stay cleaner than those in the present courthouse. "The toilets will be mounted on the wall rather than the ho said, "so they can be cleaned paster. People will take pride in these facilities."

Dr. John used Locked Down to celebrate his beloved Crescent City, which was nearly killed by rightwing neglect after Hurricane Katrina. In a piqued growl, he sings about drugs, poverty, "gold diggers [and] money wasters." With production and corrugated guitar by Black Keys mastermind Dan Auerbach, the 72-year-old mixes rock, funk and even Afrobeat to describe a soggy wasteland where honest men have equal fear of the KKK and the CIA.

I have a 2 year old rottwieller. Ever since we have gotten him he has had a sensitive stomach. We changed his food when he was a puppy and everything was good for almost about 2 years. We had him on Purina One Puppy Food for large brred dogs, and then changed to Purina One adult food for large breed dogs. Around Christmas time he started getting diarrehea again. We took him to the vet and after spending $1,000 for tests the vet said everything came back normal. They want to do B12 vitamin shots, but don't know if it will work. And also suggested we try to change his food, so i did. I had him on Beneful for a while, but with 8 packages a day it's so expensive. Then we changed to Wellness, and he seems to really like it. However he still has diarreahea. He controls it, since he has never gone in the house, but he will strain outside for 10 minutes at a time. Our backyard is like minefield, because we can't pick it up, because it's all mush and watery(sorry tmi). we tried immodiom, and that didnt work, the vet gave us medicine for 2 weeks, and that didnt work at all. I am so scared that something is going to happen to the organs of my doggie, because I kjnow diarreahea for 3 months everyday, can not be a good thing. So i don't know what else to do, we dont have a lot of money especially with a little one on the way....so if anyone has been through this or knows of a good vet, please help me. I live in Bergen county NJ, and have been using Maywood Vet. Thank you.
I need help! Don't know what else to do...

I assume that the vet has checked his feces for parasites, right? And bloodwork? And Xrays?
he could have a food allergy- all of the dog foods you have him on probably have either beef or chicken in them. Try a lamb based food. Or talk to your doctor about allergy testing him (kind of expensive, but could be worth it). There are prescription diets w/ novel proteins in them (like venison, or rabbit) for dogs that can't handle chicken, beef, or lamb. These are also more expensive than your average commercial dog food, but if it works! There are also prescription dietary supplements for different diseases.
Keep talking to your vet, or seek a 2nd opinion! There's a reason your dog has diarrhea and you need to find out why!

Thirty two years and going strong, the 32nd annual Blue Crab Festival "clawed" its way in Panacea and delighted seafood lovers in the community.
Tasty blue crabs are the talk of the town in Panacea. Thousands came out to enjoy delectable dishes from the sea world, and live entertainment. But the community had a little more to be thankful at this year's celebration. Not too long ago this park was destroyed by Hurricane Dennis.
After a great deal of hard work, the community pulled together to renovate the park and continue with tradition, and with great food and family fun, the festival is something everyone can enjoy.
The next event to be held in the renovated Woolly Park will be the Children's Fishing Tournament in June.

"Home Away From Home" Top 5 Page for this destination Kandersteg by Rhondaj
Kandersteg Travel Guide: 144 reviews and 304 photos
After much research, (most of it here on VT ;-) I decided to book a family vacation to Kandersteg. I considered Grindelwald (too touristy), Interlaken (too cityish), Muerren (too hard to travel from), and a host of others.
After Kandersteg was decided upon, I had to book a place and plane fare. So more internet cruising! I discovered a site called Untours. It was just what I was looking for! First of all, their prices were equal to, or better than anything else I could find. Secondly, they took care of most of the details. Hmm...good price, less work for me, sounds great! We did book our own plane fare, although they will do that for you too. But other than that, Untours set us up fine and proper!
I told Untours we wanted to stay in Kandersteg. They set us up in a chalet. In the one we stayed in, we were upstairs and our landlady was downstairs. She only spoke german, so I was able to practice a lot! We were met at the train station in Zurich Airport by Susie and Beatrice, Untour representatives. Another couple, from Pennsylvania, was also going to Kandersteg. We all got our rail passes validated and jumped on a train. Rail passes came as part of the Untours package. We didn't have to pick up any luggage, it was being sent through all the way to our village. Nice...! On the train ride,Beatrice filled us in with lots of info. At the train station we were met by our landlady. Bye for now to Beatrice. We would see her later at 2 events we signed up for.
The moment I saw Kandersteg in real life I knew I had chosen correctly! Love at first sight! And my love only grew during our stay.
Our landlady walked us to our chalet. Luggage came in a few hours later-delivered by our landlady. Good deal! By now it's early evening and we are pooped! We only manage to explore the village a wee bit before falling into bed, exhausted to the core. Tomorrow we will wake early and get going!
- Pros:small enough to be cozy, big enough to explore
- Cons:none in my book ! may be too quiet for some...
- In a nutshell:Great take-off point for hikes and train trekking!

This well kept, flower adorned cemetery we did not come across until our last evening walk. We uncovered a lot of sights... more travel advice
At the bigger train stations keep a lookout for the blue boxes that contain the free daily newpaper called 20 Minuten.... more travel advice
For some reason we kept gravitating towards this place. Always busy and only one or two harried servers running around.... more travel advice
Don't be wasteful! Kandersteg recycles glass (by color), paper, and tin. There's a collection center down by the train... more travel advice

The incoming Speaker of the NC House toured one are in the east Thursday and had some good news.
Republican representative Thom Tillis was in Onslow County. Tills said, despite the difficult decisions facing lawmakers, taxpayers won't see their taxes go up. Tills says, "The only thing I'm certain of in the legislative cycle is the taxpayers will not have to worry about a tax increase."
Republicans will be in charge in Raleigh for the first time in 100-years when the legislature reconvenes in a couple of weeks. Lawmakers will have to deal with a 3 and a half billion dollar budget shortfall. Tillis says, "We're going to have to go through it and figure out how to tighten our belts the same the working families and small businesses have that's how they're surviving. And we have to do the same thing. There are areas where we will eliminate programs, programs we disagree with the implementation of to begin with, so overtime there will be areas, and we have to be honest to state employees and the people to the fact there may be certain areas that are affected that way."

- sea horse - Children's Encyclopedia (Ages 8-11)
A sea horse is an unusual fish with a horselike head. There are more than 20 species, or types, of sea horse. They live in warm and mild seas.
- sea horse - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
Nothing more unlike a fish could be imagined than the sea horse. In fact it looks much like the knight in a chess game. The sea horse has a head and neck shaped like a horse, and it swims in an upright position. The body is encased in bony, ringlike plates studded with spines. The long tail curls forward at the tip. Like a monkey's tail, the sea horse's tail can grasp objects, and the sea horse often curls it around the stems of vegetation to hold itself in place. The fish's long, tubelike snout ends in a tiny mouth, and the sea horse's eyes move independently of each other.

About 20 people who bought property at the now-defunct San Rio Ocean and River Club subdivision off Gray Bridge Road are preparing to file a lawsuit in Brunswick County Court.
They hope to receive the money they invested in property that has not been developed and appears to have been abandoned.
George Dedrick of Gibsonville said this week he and fellow San Rio property owner Kevin Brown began working with their banks to get their mortgages adjusted so they did not have to make balloon payments on a property without infrastructure that could not be developed.
A Brunswick County jury couldn't come to a decision on whether to convict or acquit an 18-year-old West Virginia man accused of raping a girl in Brunswick County.
The suspect is now free on bond, and another trial is not likely until next year, according to assistant district attorney Meredith Everhart, who prosecutes sex offenses and child abuse cases.
Brunswick County Emergency Medical Services and Tri-Beach Fire Department responded to a call about 12:12 p.m. Thursday of a man body surfing on Holden Beach who was driven into the sand by a wave, according to Brian Watts, director of Brunswick County EMS. The man complained of back and neck pain, and EMS decided to call the AirLink helicopter to take him to New Hanover Regional Medical Center 'instead of taking a chance' and transporting him via ambulance. The man's name and condition have not been released.
The N.C. House of Representatives has approved the third reading of a bill that would allow property owners to force a referendum for pending involuntary annexations.
The bill now goes to the Senate, but at least one representative says it's going to be a hard fight there.
House Bill 524 passed its third and final vote last Thursday and includes a provision for town residents or residents of the area to be annexed to petition for a referendum as well as a requirement for the town to provide services to the annexed area.
BOLIVIA—Brunswick County Animal Services is continuing to suspend dog adoptions after more cases of distemper were confirmed earlier this month.
Two weeks ago, two dogs at the shelter developed a respiratory illness. Laboratory results confirmed the cause of the illness to be distemper.
Canine distemper is caused by a virus that is a highly contagious disease of wild and domestic carnivores.
The moon has fascinated humanity since our creation. Since it is such a beautiful object in the sky, how could it not captivate one's attention? We watch the moon as it waxes and wanes during the month as the sunlight travels across its face, illuminating its splendor.
As a child, I remember the first time looking through a telescope to view the moon. I was amazed how much detail was visible in the eyepiece of my telescope. The moon was full and I could see mountains along the edge. It was not just a round orb but also a complex object full of features.
Just like the bottle of laundry detergent that screams "new" when the only thing new is the bottle, plant nerds like me love unfamiliar selections.
One of the most enjoyable things I get to do is bring new plants to the area and see if they can live up to their billing. We brought back a group of plants from the J.C. Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh a couple of weeks ago and these will be added to the Brunswick Botanical Garden and the New Hanover County Arboretum as soon as they are large enough to withstand the rigors of growing in the garden.
Hot, dry weather favors powdery mildew. It is typically not fatal to woody ornamentals but can make them look bad. To control, spray every 7-14 days as soon as you notice the disease. Bayleton, Banner, Heritage and Daconil have activity against powdery mildew.
Summer bug invasion
Extreme heat in southeastern North Carolina has many gardeners seeking relief indoors. This is the time when gardeners must be cautious when working in the heat; however, there are still gardening tasks that must be done. If you can, work outside in the early morning before the heat of the day becomes oppressive. The evening might also be somewhat cool, but you may have to contend with clouds of mosquitoes.
Allison Marie Boehm and Kyle David Hannah of Richmond, Va., were married May 15 at The Isles Beach Club and Restaurant on Ocean Isle Beach.
The Rev. Lamar Boulware officiated the ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard G. Boehm II of Richmond, Va. She is the granddaughter of Manota H. Thompson of Martinsville, Va., and the late John J. Thompson, Mary Boehm Gillam of Ocean Isle Beach, the late Richard G. Boehm and late Ben H. Gillam.

Silvio Jose
Update on Silvio JoseSilvio is applying for a new loan, so that he can invest in his business growing corn, buying the necessary materials so that production will be more abundant and healthy. For example, he will buy fertilizer, seeds, and also pay for the labor needed to prepare the land. With this, he will be in a position to start his work.
He considers that the previous loan has allowed him to increase his inventory of supplies, enabling him to have a good harvest that he has been able to sell at a very good price, obtaining a profit margin that enables him to help his family. Nowadays he is doing his farming on a greater number of manzanas (unit of land measurement), so he hopes to have more output.
El considera que el préstamo anterior le ha permitido incrementar su inventario para poder tener una buena cosecha de la cual ha podido vender a muy buen precio, obteniendo un margen de ganancia para poder ayudar a su familia, hoy en día está realizando su cultivo en mayor número de manzanas de terreno con lo que espera tener más producción.
Previous Loan DetailsSilvio lives with his wife; he has four minor children attending school. He works growing basic grains and raising cattle. He's spent his entire life in these activities since he learned them while very young from his father. He requests a loan because he's starting a new corn planting cycle...

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

This could easily be titled: Who will catch the eye of Big Sam? There is never a World Cup finals that passes without a selection of players who are linked with various clubs. Think of 1994 Golden Boot winner Oleg Salenko joining Rangers after scoring six goals - five in one game against Cameroon - in 1995, Stéphane Guivarc'h heading for Newcastle United in 1998 or Ilie Dumitrescu signing for Spurs in 1994, and you get the general picture. Some of these guys might be good, or they might not. It all depends on how much money they cost, and what they offer in return. But as we know, Premier League clubs, and those with a few extra pennies abroad, are not shy about spending, or wasting, huge sums on blokes who might only be one-month wonders.
1. Bryan Ruiz (Fulham and Costa Rica)
Probably tops our warning list. The attacking midfielder Ruiz scored only one goal in 14 games for Fulham prior to Christmas last season. In total, he has made 51 appearances in the Premier League with only eight goals. He is captain of his country, but spent the latter half of the season on loan at PSV Eindhoven. He was a figure signed by Martin Jol three years ago, but not trusted to help the London side in a relegation fight after the Dutch coach was sacked earlier in the season. Fulham ended up losing their bid to stay up. It is doubtful if Ruiz will rejoin them in the Championship. For a man signed for £10.6 million in 2011, he has been desperately disappointing at Craven Cottage, but he is flourishing as his country's captain.
2. Divock Origi (Lille and Belgium)
Liverpool fans are apparently licking their lips over this fellow. Has risen to prominence with three outstanding performances from the substitutes bench for Belgium. There is talk that Liverpool will buy him, and loan him back to the French club. But it will cost them several million quid to make him a Liverpool player with other clubs sure to be circling including Tottenham. Touted as a longer term replacement for Rickie Lambert, but promising young talent does not come cheaply when they succeed at the World Cup.
3. Enner Valancia (Pachuca and Ecuador)
This bloke has a bid from Big Sam Allardyce written all him. Can just see him turning out for West Ham United? Why is that? He has scored 18 goals in 23 games for his club in Mexico, and netted three times in three games during the World Cup. Add to that a header against England in a friendly. Someone will surely have a bite. Like big Sam.
4. Georgios Samaras (Free agent and Greece)
Is a free agent after being released by Celtic. Great player on his days, but those days are too infrequent. Tends to play as a wide man rather than a striker. Will probably tempt a few clubs as a free agent, but he may not give value for money even for his wage costs. Which are sure to be lofty after helping Greece reach the last 16 and scoring a penalty in the late win over Ivory Coast.
5. Ahmed Musa (CSKA Moscow and Nigeria)
Scored two sparkling goals against Argentina in a 3-2 loss in the group stage. Only 21, but has turned out for his country 40 times. Valued at £8.5 million, and may be tempted be a move to a move coveted league than Russia.
6. John Brooks (Hertha Berlin and USA)
Scored the winning header against Ghana in a 2-1 victory in the group stage. Will surely have garnered a few admirers for that effort, and the celebration that followed. Aston Villa, Stoke City, Everton, Newcastle and, you guessed it, West Ham are all apparently keen on the rangy central defender. Which could spark a bidding war.
7. Serge Aurier (Toulouse and Ivory Coast)
Couldn't really be blamed for his country's early exit. Contributed some eye-catching performances which included two assists in three matches. A Premier League concern may well be tempted to make a move for a stout full-back.
8. Bruno Martins Indi (Feyenood and Netherlands)
Manchester United's spending fund is thought to be around £220 million this summer. That should be enough to help Louis van Gaal land the younger Feyenoord defender. Don't expect them to be the only club sniffing around him. Rumours suggest a deal has already been agreed with Porto.
9. Islam Slimani (Sporting Lisbon and Algeria)
Classic World Cup transfer fodder. Scores a couple of goals, and suddenly is flavour of the month. Or last month when you consider Algeria are already out of this tournament. Derby County have been linked with his signing with his agent claiming he is ready to leave Portugal. Wonder if big Sam has footage of him scoring against South Korea and Russia.
10. Guillermo Ochoa (Free Agent and Mexico)
An outstanding performance at the World Cup from the Mexico goalkeeper. Even better news is that he is a free agent after last turning out for Ajaccio. Surely someone will fancy a slice after that.

With the release of Dark Souls III, there's been lots of talk about the series as a whole, its history and its impact, including how it's frightening, how it's funny, how it's hard, how it's not that hard, how it's communal, how it's isolationist, how its story is told, how its combat has evolved, how its design has evolved, how its popularity has evolved… lots of talk. But within all that, there's one thing that I haven't seen anyone touch on before: how oddly relaxing this type of game can be.

Oxenfree is a Young Adult story about a girl named Alex, a group of her friends, and the supernatural entities they get involved with on a mysterious island. Like most mysterious islands, this one is an attractive hang out spot for teens looking to escape from their normal lives for a night, and what begins as a night of unsupervised drinking becomes something much more sinister and dangerous.
Prism (or more specifically, _Prism, note the underscore, in case you want to search for it on Google or on the App Store) is an iOS puzzle game that's pretty dang good, but the most impressive thing about it is its art. The simple idea of geometric shapes floating in space is used to convey a strong sense of progression, culminating in a truly clever climax that's also an anti-climax. The game gets to have its cake and eat it too. It's subversive and expected, climactic and anti-climactic, a clever trick and a thoughtful lesson.
SUPERHOTLine Miami is exactly what it sounds like. Like Hotline Miami it is a bloody and brutal shooter played from a top-down view, and like SUPERHOT, one in which time only moves when you move.
The mash-up work brilliantly. It's amazing how effective these two systems work together, which further proves the versatility of both shooting as a central mechanic and slow-motion as a central mechanic. Shooting has already proven itself, given the number and types of shooters out there, but slow motion, even though it has proven itself a memorable part of games like Max Payne, has never really caught on for some reason.
Previously, I praised the Tower of Fortune games for achieving the kind of balance "that's easy to take for granted because when it works it's not noticeable. We simply play the game and enjoy it, not questioning or realizing why it's so enjoyable".
The quickest way to notice that unnoticeable balance is to play a game that lacks that balance. In a sadly ironic twist, it was Tower of Fortune 3 that made me notice the quality of Tower of Fortune 2. This threequel once again expands the scope of the mechanics and the world, but this time all the changes feel driven by cynicism. Each new system feels designed to funnel you towards the real-money microtransactions, which are now more prevalent and prominent than ever before. Tower of Fortune 3 falls into the trap that the previous games deftly avoided: It feels like a Vegas slot machine.

Sooooo… I've been missing.
From this space at least. At home? I've been more present than ever. Which is both good and bad. I've been taking some much needed naps while my daughter reads to me. I've been teaching two very eager learners all the things they should know. I've been cooking and baking like a freak in an effort to make sure I'm a happy, fed foodie when this baby comes out. But I've also been missing my camera, and the joy of making sure someone knows about the amazing pasta dish that I can't stop making so they can enjoy it too.
I don't want to shut this space down or back away indefinitely. But I want to be honest and let you know how little I can commit to posting right now. My family needs to come first, and right now my family needs a well rested mama, a patient homeschool teacher, and someone who is cooking for them, not the invisible (but amazing) internet crowd. I've always believed in doing something 100% to the best of your ability if you're going to do it, and right now, I just can't give this space 100%.
I want to tell you about how much I am not built for homeschooling, yet it's going so well and I know it's what we are meant to be doing. How Cas wants to spend more time on school than I can possibly provide material for. How I'm actually doing science experiments and crafts even though they are the bane of my existence. How I'm letting my afternoon quiet time disappear for the sake of well taught children and it's both killing me and it's not.
I want to tell you about how we had the freedom to go to the beach, in the middle of September, to squish our toes in the mud, throw rocks to the current, and watch a lady take her horse for a swim. Have you ever seen a horse swim in a river? That's some real-life Little House on the Prairie stuff right there.
I want to tell you about my freezer meal plan! And maybe I still will. It's epic and scheduled and I'm even being a responsible adult and putting names and dates on things. I also want to tell you about the crazy busy baby inside of me that is making those freezer meals necessary. We have sixish weeks to go until we meet this girl, and she feels somehow huge and tiny at the same time.
I want to tell you about everything, and maybe I will. Or maybe I won't. But I appreciate you here and hope all the best recipes (which is, of course, all of them) don't get buried and lost from you as I take a break and focus on what I need to.

Having read a couple of threads about how various gases diffuse through the butyl rubber in tubes, I wonder if an inert gas would be better? Argon is fairly abundant and its atomic radius is pretty big as well, if that matters.
Having read a couple of threads about how various gases diffuse through the butyl rubber in tubes, I wonder if an inert gas would be better? Argon is fairly abundant and its atomic radius is pretty big as well, if that matters.
The other two posters have it right but I still have to ask; what problem are you trying to solve?
Don't forget to put fresh air in your tires regularly!~! I ran nitrogen once in my 2wd truck. Absolutely no difference in my humble opinion.,,,,BD
Ah, FFS people, why does every thread here have to turn into stupid stuff like this?
Personally, I would never dream of using anything but a regular old pump to fill my tubes. I've never even used a CO2 thingy.
Can't you for one second think about something theoretically? Are you really that narrow in your thought processes, that you find that impossible?
View this as a question in the same vein as a question such as "Are we alone in the universe?"...
Race cars use pure nitrogen in those tires because ambient air can have too much moisture. When that moisture boils, you can have all kinds of problems. We cyclists never deal with anything close to those kinds of speeds and cornering forces. The same can be said of our street cars.
Bikes use brakes to stop.
If your bike has breaks, don't ride it.
Argon is a bit pricey to be filling bike tires. i'll stick to using my argon with my tig welder
Forget the practicalities and focus on the chemistry and physics of it.
I fill my tires with chocolate, that way when it punctures I get a delicious treat as well.
Mes compaingnons cui j'amoie et cui j'aim,... Me di, chanson.
From here.it is the concentration of these trace gases that causes the greenhouse gas problem. The trace gases are made up of Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Neon, Helium, Methane, Hydrogen, Nitrous Oxide and Ozone.
There goes my personal methane recycling idea...
I can forget about NAWS for my bike too.
aron is still smaller than CO2
It's gonna slow you down: argon has a density of 1.784 kg/m3 while air's density is 1.2 kg/m3. Think of all that extra mass to accelerate.
I thought race cars use Nitrogen because it doesn't expand from heat as much as ambient air???
"Well, I guess you can cut the arts as much as you want... Sooner or later, these kids aren't going to have anything to read or write about." (Richard Dreyfus as Glenn Holland)
I think you should fill your tubes with UF6, which has a very low speed of sound. That way, everytime you braked you'd get little sonic booms in your tires.
**for all you physicists out there: yes, I know. work with me here...
Personally I consider it highly important to change out the air every Spring and Fall.

Additional Details
"Every August, four women would gather together to spend a week at the beach, renting a new house each year. The ritual began when they were in their twenties and their husbands were in medical school, and became a mainstay of every summer thereafter. Their only criteria was oceanfront and isolation, their only desire to strengthen their far-flung friendships. They called themselves the Girls of August. But when one of the Girls dies tragically, the group slowly drifts apart and their vacations together are brought to a halt. Years later, a new marriage reunites them and they decide to come together once again on a remote barrier island off the South Carolina coast. There, far from civilization, the women make startling discoveries that will change them in ways they never expected"

One of the directors for Splinter Cell: Blacklist says that the differences between both series is still spaced apart, mostly because Blacklist is rooted in more realism than Ground Zeroes.
If you were a fan of the old Splinter Cell games you probably had a real foul taste in your mouth after playing Conviction. The Gears of War bodycount-approach turned off a lot of stealth fans. Well, Ubisoft seems to understand where they went wrong and even acknowledge that Conviction wasn't really a classic Splinter Cell game.

Cavalli's Full-on Glamour – Roberto Cavalli delivered a collection of femininity and toughness for his spring 2012 collection presented in Milan earlier today. Using a dark color palette paired with pastel prints, the Cavalli woman sports intricate detailing with sequin embroidered blazers and dresses for the new season. The showing also included seductive floor length gowns printed with wild animal prints, uneven stripes and sheer lace. Beauty for the catwalk included a messy up-do and smoky eye for a dramatic effect.
Curious to see what stylists will come up with when this collection hits magazines!
Everything is extremely dressy. I can't see this working well for the "average" person.
Most interesting, most complex, most detailed and most haute of all the MFW shows.
I have looked at it a dozen times, the off kilter tailored jackets, the unexpected flowing floral skirts, the sharp sequined slacks, the animal motifs and the faux animal skins – a show where the individual parts are wonderful and their juxtaposition is extraordinary.
Despite the flashiness elsewhere (let alone a lot of trite. boring shows) this is the outstanding show of the season (so far)!
I totally agree with you! I would wear every piece of this collection… It reminds me of Gustav Klimt's paintings a lot!
when i see a collection even how intricate or simple it is, i always break it down thinking if it would be great if i would pair it with a simple white t-shirt or a pair of jeans or with a great pair of killer shoes. and this collection greatly passed that test.
either a piece of jacket or a pair of pants from this collection, it would surely make everything looking fabulous and gorgeous.
surely the best way to look glamorous.
a great way to frock into a summer evening.
love it!
I can sooo imagine ADR getting on board this train. Love the colour palette, great combo with the metallics.
Beautiful and so Cavalli but it could be from the last year or back few years, too. Can't find the "ss 2012" thing in it.

Google is headed for a showdown in Taiwan as Taipei City government plans moving against the internet giant in a dispute relating with its paid apps.
Some time back, the Taipei City government had fined Google Tw $1 million ($34,000) for the latter's refusal to provide a seven-day trial period to its customers as per the country's consumer laws. The tech giant then appealed to the country's economics ministry, which upheld the decision.
Later, Google moved the Taipei High Administrative Court against the decision and the court overruled the said fine last week. Enraged by the judgment, however, the Taipei City government plans to appeal against the court ruling.
An official at the consumer protection division of the government said, "We do not wish to see Google exit the Taiwan market but we urge Google to respect and protect consumers' rights. We will appeal the court ruling."
Back in 2011, the government had instructed Apple and Google to amend their trading practices in accordance with the country's laws. Google refused to follow suit, but Apple did.
As per the terms of service of Google's Play Store, the official Android app market, consumers can get refund only within 15 minutes of their purchase.
Ever since the dispute erupted between Google and Taipei government, the former has suspended sale of its apps in the country.

"A pal of mine was talking about this engineer forever, but when the kid showed up I could tell that he thought working with me was going to be a party," remembers Williams. "Then came the grim realization that he was here to work, and this was his first acoustic project. He's like, 'I'll make it through, man. I'll make it through.' But within four days, I knew it was going to be a long two weeks. I thought, 'This kid is going to make this album a jumbled cluster f**k.' Then, he started getting pissy with some of the players I had coming in—he was totally working against us. I've never in my life had to lean over and say, 'Do we need to pull the plug and send you home right now?'"
The recording process was likely a bit less problematic for William's granddad, the truly legendary Hank Williams, Sr., who, in 1946, made his way to Nashville's Castle Studios—a state of the art facility run as a side project by seasoned engineers from the city's flagship radio station WSM. The studio management was aggressively committed to innovation, and the purchase of a Scully lathe to cut master discs—the first such unit in the South—allowed for rapid duplication and distribution of recordings. Williams, Sr., and his accompanists would cluster around a single RCA 44 or 77 ribbon mic that was fed to a simple tube console, and, ultimately, out to the lathe (which was too large to be kept onsite, so it was housed in a warehouse 12 miles away, and connected to the studio by a telephone line). Three-hour sessions were the protocol, and each session was expected to produce four songs. It should be obvious that these sessions were live to disc.
While the Damn Right, Rebel Proud sessions embraced the benefits of digital technology, Williams III tried to stay true to the basic tenets of his grandfather's organic "capture it live" approach. After straightening out "the kid's" messy Pro Tools files with his friend Jim Lightman, Williams returned to the task of building up his songs layer-by-layer. Typically, he started with acoustic rhythm guitar and a scratch vocal, and then recorded drums, bass, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, dobro, pedalsteel, and electric guitar. Williams' living room saw most of the action, with drums, guitar, fiddle, and steel all tracked in the same room, and vocals recorded in a little hallway.
"It's not a fancy room or anything," he says. "It has hardwood floors and an eight-foot ceiling. Separation was decent, because we had enough room to get the drums away from the other instruments, but there was still some signal bleed."
A console was rented from the local SIR [Studio Instrument Rentals], and the mics were almost exclusively Shure—SM57s for bass and guitars, a KSM9 for vocals, and KSM44s for room mics.
"I'll tell you this," says Williams, "we didn't use any old fancy or high dollar mics—it was basically all stuff that Shure has given me. We'd just kind of mess around with the mics we had, and see what we could get going on."
For the album's musicians, Williams called up about half of his touring band, and filled in the other spots with Nashville session giants.
"[Session guitarist] Johnny Hiland is the king of the record," says Williams. "He's a virtuoso and an incredible guy. He walks in, and says, 'How you doing, buddy—how many are we going to do today?' I'll answer, 'Well, we're probably going to do 12 tracks today, Johnny,' and he'll just say, 'Alright, hook me up!' He'll take two passes at each song, and, within an hour and a half, he already has his stuff packed up and he's heading out the door, saying, 'Man, I can't wait to see you next time. I hope you let me play on one of your rock records one day.' He's as quick as they come. Randy Kohrs— who flatpicks the acoustic guitar and dobro on all the fast songs—and banjo player Charley Cushman are also guys that get it done fast. However, my steel player, Andy Gibson, likes taking a little bit more time, because he likes to pick a song apart and really listen to it."
Whether it's his welldocumented and hard-won rebel persona, or the exhaustion talking after having to wrangle sounds out of "the kid," Williams is brutually honest about the fact that Damn Right, Rebel Proud didn't exactly nail his vision.
"The record is not as psychedelic as I wanted it to be," he says. "I always like adding what I call 'The Pink Floyd Effect'—strange echoes and other weird sounds that appear on every single damn song—but things were working against me on this one. Simple moves that I know should have only taken a few minutes ended up taking almost an hour—you know, just getting an echo going or something. The kid wasn't feeling it. "Stoned and Alone" has a little bit of the Floyd Effect. I just wish more of the record had it."
Another aspect of the album's production that was more-or-less out of Williams' hands was a contractual obligation to deliver "safe" songs such as "I Wish I Knew."
"Yeah, that's really in the contract," says Williams. "I have to give them two songs that are good enough for the radio. If you ever hear a real pretty song on one of my records, that's probably the reason why. Of course, every song I think is a hit never is. That's just the way it goes. But I hope people can see the difference in the songs I write for myself, and not for the radio. It would be nice if we stood out a bit, compared to the way most country records out of Music Row sound these days. I really want to keep us kind of underground."
