Unfortunately, Ksenidi gives us only a small taste of how that supplementary feature works (as limited space allows), but it's quite sufficient to whet the appetite of those of us who value effective expositional pedagogies. [Might an extended account of how that second prong of that hybrid system works? With examples?]
Absent the "specifics" of this "standards-based" supplement, I should like to offer my own suggestion as to how effective exposition might be taught. And I hope that I will be excused if my position seems hopelessly old-fashioned. And if I step on the toes of those disgracefully selfish Tea Partiers.
Classes in English composition must be taught by instructors who are, themselves, effective writers. And to groups no larger than 15 students. Further, these instructors must be selfless and absolutely convinced of the importance of their assignment. They must respect their students, treating them as adults.
Short, one- or two-page writing assignments should be given daily. And the instructor should spend, say, 5-7 minutes in marking each with red ink. Retuning them promptly. Also, the distinction between Student and Instructor should be blurred. [I have found that students, themselves, are invaluable in assisting their fellows.]
Above all, the Romney/TEA Party pandering to the greedy must be rejected.
The "labor intensive" regimen here outlined is absolutely necessary if we parents and grandparents expect our charges to be adequately educated in English composition. Contra Mitt: let us understand that class size DOES matter in the teaching of English writing.
BTW, thanks to those magnanimous English teachers and others in the hinterlands who recognize themselves in the portrait that I now present.

catnip is a tiny non-libpcap based network packet capturing tool (currently only for Linux) which when compiled and stripped the binary is smaller than 20kiB. This makes it very suitable for embedded environments where a libpcap based tool, typically 100kiB for just libpcap and 500kiB for tcpdump, would be simply too large. catnip is generally parameter compatible with tcpdump and what makes catnip stand out from other small packet capturing tools is that also supports BPF filtering.
Whilst putting together a buildroot based Linux environment for my Linksys WAG54G I was disappointed to find that a compiled libpcap/tcpdump was just too large for the 4MiB flash I was limited to. Digging around I could not find any other filtering supporting micro-sized libpcap-less capturing tools so set out to write my own, and this is the result of my efforts.
The source code and (hopefully) better documentation for 'catnip' is at https://github.com/jimdigriz/catnip

The Dakar rally has added Peru to its route next year. The 5,600-mile route will now begin in Mar Del Plata and finish in the Peruvian capital of Lima rather than returning from Chile to Buenos Aires. That change will add a day-long stage, making 14 total race days. Sadly, it doesn't appear as if the rally will take advantage of Peru's Andean mountains or rainforest, instead sticking to the coast and its Atacama-like desert.
As you can see, the previous route formed a figure eight, beginning and ending in Buenos Aires and looping through Chile.
The next Dakar will run from January 1-15, 2012.
We've included our 10 favorite photos from this year's race in the gallery below.

Christian Education
Learning the Orthodox Christian faith is important for all ages. Beginning in September, Assumption will provide Christian education classes for all ages, including adults. Classes will follow the Divine Liturgy on Sundays, with youth and adult activities at other times. Please watch this site for announcements, or contact Fr. Brendan at email@example.com.
Sacramental Ministry
Orthodox sacraments, called "mysteries," begin with baptism in infancy and continue through all of life. In the ancient Church there is not a specific number of sacraments, because all ministry in the name of Jesus Christ is "sacramental." However, the principal mysteries are baptism, chrismation ("confirmation"), eucharist ("holy communion" or the Lord's Supper), anointing for healing, marriage, confession and absolution, and Holy Orders (ordination to one of the orders of ministry, such as deacon, priest and bishop; or becoming a monastic under vows). Orthodox mysteries are given only to Orthodox Christians; however, our priests will pray with anyone for healing, and can provide counseling for personal problems. Our parish also assists in emergencies. We cannot provide funds for rent, groceries, bail or loans, but can refer those in need to agencies which can help. Our primary focus is on spiritual healing through the faith and practices of the apostolic Church.

When I was young, my family actually celebrated Christmas Eve more so than Christmas. For us, the vigil, or Wigilia was very special. And, Christmas Eve was more like a day and a half, which doesn't even count all the prep time involved. This celebration was more than magical for me. The Wigilia meal was a meatless meal and it was not to be served until the first star had appeared in the sky.
And then, not a morsel was to be eaten until the oplatek was broken. The oplatek is a rectangular unleavened wafer, generally embossed with a nativity scene and placed on a plate over a few pieces of straw. As tradition holds, each person attending the meal takes a piece oplatek off the plate and the eldest family member begins by taking a piece of the wafer from their spouse or the next elder member. Then each person wishes each other health, joy and happiness for the coming year. It becomes touchingly sad when one of the family members is no longer with us and a person is awkwardly standing alone for a moment until someone offers them a piece of their wafer. When every person had gone around the room and shared their wafer and wished all the family members well, it was then time to sit down and enjoy the meal. At the table there was always a vacant chair for any unexpected guest.
The food served was nothing exotic or elaborate, but it was often food that we only ate at this particular celebration of the year. Everything was homemade, steeped from the deep roots of our ancestry. Mushroom soup, kluski (noodles), fish (perch), pickled herring, kapusta (cabbage), boiled dried fruits, pierogi and followed by poppy cakes, cookies, placeks and strong coffee.
We exchanged gifts on this day, but no gifts were to be opened until the table was cleared and the dishes done. As children this interim between the cleaning up and the opening of the gifts was an eternity. There was no such thing as a dishwasher back then so my older sister and my aunts did the dishes with a lot of chatter and laughter, but also swiftness knowing of the youngsters' anxiousness.
And then, the gifts were opened. I don't ever remember being disappointed. My mother always watched and enjoyed as everyone opened their gifts and then she would open hers at the end so she could relish the oohs and aahs and comments as she displayed what she received.
From that point forward the evening took on relaxed mode. The women congregated in the living room while the men went downstairs to play some poker. At 11:45pm a bunch of us would pack in a car and attend midnight Mass. After Mass, it was now officially Christmas, and when we got home we were greeted by the scent of homemade kielbasa cooking on the stove. It was then time for a little sandwich on rye bread. My father always made about 30 pounds of sausage and as each of the guests left for home they were given some fresh kielbasa to take with them. Later that day, we would meet at Aunt Jenny's home for a continued get together, more chatter and a bite to eat.

or has your man ever done this as foreplay?
i was fantasizing doing this to a girl who is laying on her back with hands and feet outstretched and tied.
it doesn't have to be a big ice cube. it can be small enough to melt within 30 seconds. I was even thinking of freezing some lube or massage oil and stick that in the vagina. it will melt and act as lube =]
so how did it feel if you have done this? did anyone like it?
And another idea is fill a latex glove with water. Freeze it. Finger the vagina with the frozen latex finger.
Most Helpful Girl
To all the girls who are saying it would be painful, don't knock it 'till you try it!
Out of curiosity, I tried it once. I rubbed the ice cube on my clit and then put it in my vag. It was surprisingly a really really amazing sensation! I loved the first few touches of the cold ice, it was a nice contrast to my warmth. I think it would be really amazing if a man were to let an ice cube melt on his tongue and then give me oral...84|4
i actually did that to my ex girlfriend, she loved it. +1

SELECTED WORKS BY Alejandra Prieto
Alejandra Prieto
Coal Mirror
300 x 185 x 15 cm
Paradox traverses Alejandra Prieto's objects and installations like an uncomfortable feeling pregnant with pleasure. Her investigation into the historical lineage of objects coupled with the choice of coal as the material for the elaboration of highly polished realistic sculptures is provocative. Dark and reflective, her functional icons of high design, fashion and furniture sculpted in coal propose a multitude of interpretations that obscure the simple delight of their contemplation.
They recall the role of such humble but fundamental material in the history of industrialization – and by addition in the development of the modern era. Matching extremely skilled craftsmanship and sophistication with the rawest and dirtiest of substances, the process of making precious works of art that in turn replicate high end objects of desire signals another paradox: diamonds – one of the worlds priciest commodities – are just pressed coal under the forces of gravity and time. Furthermore the artist integrates her ambivalence towards the value system that governs consumer society in the choice of objects to be replicated in coal. A Tizio lamp or a chaise longue by Le Corbusier turn the intrinsic nature of such collectors' fetishes into pure contradiction: coal as an energy source was at the base of an economy sustained by hard working conditions. The coal extracted from Chilean mines, an industry in disappearance while been replaced by other energy sourcing, sees its value reinstated in Prieto's work.
Additionally, the reflectivity of her black concave mirrors and wall-based panels brings to mind the use of dark minerals – obsidian and hematite – in the production of mirrors by the Olmec, one of the oldest original people of the Americas.

ISCP resident Alejandra Prieto opens a solo show at Y Gallery in NYC
ISCP resident Alejandra Prieto will open her first solo show in New York with CCU and Y Gallery, Invisible Dust, curated by Cecilia Jurado. Within her artistic practice, Prieto is dedicated to exploring ideas regarding the status of the object, its conditions of production, functionality and expository modes in the contemporary art world. Her recent coal-based works reflect on the invisible and visible mechanisms and modes of representation in contemporary spaces. She establishes and makes visible the relationships between the sophistication of design and the unskilled labor required for reproduction, and between subjective modes of market entry and purely aesthetic objects.

Alejandra Prieto- Invisible Dust
April 2012, by Greg Lindquist, The Brooklyn Trail
For her debut North American solo exhibition, in a sub-basement space at Y Gallery, Chilean artist Alejandra Prieto recasts coal as an aesthetic object. Prieto obsessively transforms this material's coarse appearance into a polished mirror, silk tapestries, and a projection screen. No longer dust and dirt, this combustible sedimentary rock is repurposed as a signifier of socioeconomic labor, environmental peril, and luxury commodity.
Displayed on unspoiled gallery walls, Prieto has concealed the sullied and fanatical production of these objects. The ritualistic act of sanding, smoothing, and polishing that has taken place in her studio is not overly explicit in any of these objects. "Concave Coal Mirror" (2012), a person-sized vanity mirror made of tiled coal bricks, is the exhibition's centerpiece. Although the surface is lustrous and burnished by sanding, there is also a cobbled-together, worn, and wobbly quality to the object. Also, the void created by its absence of color recalls how Ad Reinhardt's black paintings express a desire to be spiritual in their absence.
Prieto's tautological installation explores a singular material and its performative and physical possibilities. In doing so, she calls to mind Yves Klein's use of ultramarine as a magical perceptual experience and prop for performance. Klein was just as interested in blue as a powdery pigment as he was in its existence as the residue of actions and movements made by the body, not to mention the material's ability to coalesce as form in sponge sculptures and paintings. Here, Prieto similarly uses coal as both material and immaterial, solid form and atmospheric powder, such as pigment in the dust paintings "Ornamental Dust (Cheetah)" and "Ornamental Dust (Labyrinth)" (both 2012), and as a projection screen for a video that imagines a coal dust cloud.

Alejandra Prieto's Invisible Dust at Y Gallery
April 2012, by Rob.S, The Current Season
As evident in Richard Serra's work with lead, Robert Smithson's arrangement of salts and Dan Flavin's infatuation with fluorescents, humble materials are quite capable of conveying strong ideas. At her first New York solo show, Alejandra Prieto is changing the perception of coal. InInvisible Dust at Y Gallery, the artist uses just four works to prove the versatility of her signature material and to make an even greater argument for its significance as a cultural artifact.
For a show dedicated to coal, it is only fitting that the gallery space is below street level. Like a miner at an unfamiliar site, one feels the urge to duck upon entry, relaxing only as the stairs and antechamber give way to a cavernous room not seen from above ground. It is here that each of Prieto's four works gets a wall of its own.
The first work to catch the eye is Concave Coal Mirror set against the far wall. Spanning six feet in diameter, the work's unsettling effect is not derived from its imposing presence, but rather its surface. Though coal has a reflective quality, the rough and rubbed textures create a mixture of matte and gloss finishes, making a full reflection impossible. As the surface fails to disappear in the eye of the viewer, he or she is fully aware that they are looking at, not into a mirror. What seems like a novel invention on Prieto's part is instead a reintroduction of an ancient technique, as coal was used to produce mirrors in pre-Columbian societies.
Set opposite the mirror, and continuing the Mesoamerican motif, isOrnamental Dust (Chita), a coal dust print on black silk. The fabric illustrates a repeating scene of jaguars and parrots in contrasting patterns. The illustration is styled after the animal imagery found in temples, as if the piece were nothing more than a wall rubbing. A second coal dust print on black silk, titled Ornamental Dust (Laberinto), rests on another wall. It features a more contemporary geometric pattern that would be equally at home on a high-end scarf, or alongside the Chita print in a Mayan-themed gift shop.

Alejandra Prieto: Invisible Dust
Baudrillard's at Bergdorf
Coal is the hot-button, and topical, material of choice for Alejandra Prieto's solo exhibition Invisible Dust. As such, coal's familiar, loaded connotations of class and economic exploitation implicitly pervade the works here, no matter how polished and pictorial they may be. With Ornamental Dust (Chita) andOrnamental Dust (Laberinto) (all works 2012), coal dust is applied directly to dark brown, nearly black stretched silk canvases, so that the coal's almost glossy surface contrasts with the deep, matt background of the silk, forming ghostly patterns best viewed from an angle. Chita features a repeating geometric textile design that begs to extend beyond its frame, while Laberintoportrays a pre- Columbian motif of collared leopards, an allegory for colonial plunder.
Prieto keeps such provocative issues in the background, literally and figuratively, and the most interesting aspect of Invisible Dust is the way the artist sidesteps didacticism, preferring instead to subsume her politics into understated, formal play – though sometimes, as with Prieto's two canvases, this has the unintended consequence of deadening the work entirely: their patterns don't seem particularly suited to painting, and thus they are the least interesting pieces here.
More successful, precisely because it's such an ambiguous object, is Concave Coal Mirror. At 183cm in diameter, this piece practically fills an entire wall at Y Gallery, which is a modestly sized space. It's made entirely of thick, unprocessed chunks of Chilean coal, which Prieto glued to a concave wood form before polishing it to a glossy, nearly reflective shine. The dust this process created was eventually used for the canvases and an adjacent videowork, Cloud on Coal Screen, which depicts billows of the fine grains projected onto a wall-mounted shelf of coal. As the origin of the other works,Concave Coal Mirror has an appropriately outsize presence and seems to suck the energy out of the others, like some oversize black talisman. Its productive tension between individuated raw material and polished gestalt recalls Martin Puryear's sculptures, if a little simpler in form.

Doctors: Magic's HIV is at undetectable levels, but he's not virus-free
By DARA AKIKO TOM
Associated Press Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Powerful drugs have reduced the AIDS virus in Magic Johnson's body to undetectable levels, his doctors said Friday.
''Earvin is doing very well,'' Drs. David Ho and Michael Mellman said in a statement. ''However, we must emphasize that 'undetectable' doesn't equal 'absent.' It would be premature and incorrect to say Earvin is 'virus-free.'''
The doctors added: ''We are very pleased he has adhered to his daily drug regimen and that is reflected in his good health.''
Thousands of HIV patients have also seen their infections recede to undetectable levels after taking drug ''cocktails'' containing protease inhibitors, approved last year by the Food and Drug Administration.
A patient with undetectable virus levels can still infect others. Even if the virus is undetected in blood or semen, it can be present in other areas, such as the intestines.
The 37-year-old basketball star, who played for the Los Angeles Lakers from 1979 to 1992, disclosed in 1991 that he was infected with the AIDS virus. He maintains a strenuous exercise program and plays exhibition games with the touring Magic Johnson All-Stars.
Johnson, during a break in practice with his team, told KCBS-TV on Friday that he believes his good health is a result of prayers by friends and family and his own faith in God.
''If it wasn't for the Lord's blessing, I wouldn't be as healthy as I am now,'' Johnson said.
Just as Johnson's disclosure that he was HIV-positive drew enormous public attention to AIDS, activists hope that his progress will encourage people to get tested and take advantage of improved treatments.
''My concern is that people are going to think that Magic Johnson is the only person this is happening to, that he's cured, that there's a cure for AIDS, therefore, I don't have to worry about being infected,'' said Lee Klosinski, director of education at AIDS Project Los Angeles. ''I hope people get the message about how important treatment is.''
Johnson has been taking protease inhibitors, which reduce illnesses and lengthen life in some patients.
Nearly 90 percent of the people who take the powerful drugs within a few months of being diagnosed HIV-positive have undetectable levels similar to Johnson's condition, said Dr. Jeffrey Laurence, an AIDS researcher at Cornell Medical Center and a consultant to the American Foundation for AIDS Research.
''People are living longer, but we're measuring it in months,'' Laurence said. ''The number - 'tell me how many years I'm going to get out of these drugs' - we're not going to get.''
As many as 40 percent of patients who take the potent drugs develop a resistance to them, either because the virus proves more crafty or because patients don't take the drugs as ordered.
The drugs, which are taken with at least two other AIDS drugs on a strict schedule, have side effects that include nausea, vomiting, headaches, backaches and gastrointestinal problems.
''The Lord has definitely healed Earvin,'' the basketball star's wife, Cookie Johnson, said in an interview in the latest Ebony magazine. Doctors ''think it's the medicine. We claim it in the name of Jesus.''
''I honestly feel that the Lord is going to heal him and that we are going to live together forever and have more children and be happy,'' Mrs. Johnson said.

One part of web development (from a front-end perspective) is laying out forms. There is never a standard set, and I've seen people continuing to use
<tables> to keep styling consistent. Say you were to lay out this form:
At first glance it seems that a table would make laying out this form easy. Another options is to use
<fieldset>'s, with perhaps a list inside them. Float the fieldsets to the left, give them equal widths.
My question is what is the most standard way of laying out forms? There seem to be several techniques, but many of them don't work cross browser.
How would you do it? And why?

Here are compared the Canon 5D Mark III to its 5D Mark II predecessor at ISO 50 through ISO 25600, whole ISO values.
The lens was the Leica 90mm f/2 APO Summicron-R at ƒ/5.6, easy to use for Canon users by simply adding a lens adapter.
For this comparison, I reduced my normal sharpening amount from 60 to 40 so as not to accentuate noise too much. As a practical matter, digital images must be sharpened and it makes a better evaluation to process images as similarly to real-world usage as possible, but perhaps not to the full amount of sharpening when very high ISO values are involved. Noise reduction was of course turned off.

''Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics'' was an anime series produced by Nippon Animation. It was originally aired from 1987 to 1989.
The anime was based on the stories by Creator/TheBrothersGrimm and a number of other authors. Each story was told in a half-hour format. Some stories, like "Cinderella" and "Puss in Boots" were aired in two parts. "Snow White" was aired in four parts. Most episodes were somewhat faithful to the original stories, with various changes made to suit the half-hour episode run.
Can be seen as a SpiritualSuccessor to ''Anime/AndersenMonogatari''
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: "The Coat of Many Colors" implies that the princess has PTSD from [[ParentalIncest her insane father's attempts to force her to marry him]].
* AdaptationalVillainy: The Huntsman in Snow White. Originally, he was unable to kill Snow White and spared her. In this version, he didn't, and he got a DisneyVillainDeath.
** The witch in "Rapunzel" as well. Here, she apparently locked Rapunzel away from the world immediately after kidnapping her, rather than when she turned twelve. In addition to giving her adopted daughter a TraumaticHaircut and casting her out into a desert after finding out about the prince's visits, she beats her into unconsciousness, and it's implied she was originally intending to ''kill'' her. Moreover, she pushes the prince out of the tower with her magic, unlike in the original story where he jumped out.
* AdaptationInducedPlotHole: In the original story, the prince heard Rapunzel singing. Here, he hears her playing a harp. This raises the question of how he knew it was a woman up in the tower.
* AdaptedOut: There is no stepsister in this version of ''Literature/BrotherAndSister''.
* {{Bowdlerization}}: Played with, for some of the episodes. For example, Cinderella's stepmother and stepsisters do not end up blind and mutiltated, nor does her magic tree have any connection to Cinderella's dead mother. Of course, in a subversion, we also get [[spoiler: the stepmother having the poor tree destroyed.]] "Brother and Sister" also bordered on this. The witch merely kidnaps the Queen, rather than killing her, and the subplot with the stepsister is omitted entirely.
** The Nickelodeon dub also went a bit further, shortening scenes where characters are beaten, making deaths cleaner, and removing instances of breastfeeding. Infamously, "The Coat Of Many Colors" had to be redubbed to omit references to incest. Strangely enough, the original dub is the only version available online.
* TheCaligula: In "The Coat of Many Colors," the princess's father loses his mind and tries to force his daughter to marry him.
* CompositeCharacter: This version of "The Six Swans" gives the [[ObnoxiousInLaws evil mother-in-law's]] role in the story to the WickedStepmother.
* DamselInDistress: In "Brother and Sister", the queen is abducted by her stepmother and taken to a foreboding mountain.
* DeathByAdaptation: In this version of ''Snow White'', a boar knocks the huntsman off a cliff to his death.
** The mad king in "The Coat of Many Colors," the show's version of "Allerleirauh," is heavily implied to die in a fire he set by accident.
* DisneyVillainDeath:
** The witch in "The Iron Stove" suffers this after getting stunned by the princess's amulet.
** The huntsman in "Snow White" gets knocked off a cliff by a boar.
* DistressedDude: The prince in "The Iron Stove", who is under a witch's curse, and later gets abducted by her.
* DrunkOnMilk: In ''The Town Musicians Of Bremen'', the donkey acts giddy and walks on his hind legs after eating strange flowers. The narration even says that people make some kinds of wine from certain flowers.
* FrameUp: In "The Six Swans", the witch kidnaps the princess's son and makes it look like she ate him.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The Rapunzel and the Prince thing. The writers didn't show them doing anything graphic, but she got pregnant of him and the prince and Rapunzel awoke in the SAME BED.
* GigglingVillain: The witch from "The Iron Stove".
* {{Grimmification}}: The Crystal Ball. For all that is pure and decent in the world, The Crystal Ball.
* TheHedgeOfThorns: The princess in "The Iron Stove" has to get through one of these in order to save her prince. It turns out to be an illusion, but braving it still took a lot of courage on her part.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: In "The Six Swans", the witch, having been exposed for what she really is, attacks with a wind spell. But in doing so, she reignites the princess's pyre, and sets herself aflame.
* HotWitch: Three of them - the one in "The Iron Stove" (who more closely resembles a [[HornyDevils succubus]] than a typical witch), the one in "The Six Swans" (whose beauty briefly manages to charm the heroine's father), and the one in "The Water Nixie" (who wears a pink see-through dress). All three witches are the villains of their respective episodes.
* MasterOfIllusion: The witch in "The Iron Stove."
* NamedByTheAdaptation: Some of the episodes give the characters names they didn't have in the original stories.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Their version of Bluebeard is resemblant to Henry VIII.
* ParentalIncest: "The Coat of Many Colors" has a mentally ill king try to marry his daughter.
* PimpedOutDress: There are several, given the nature of its stories, most based on 18th century styles.
** Josephine in "Bluebeard" is offered lots of dresses, including a white one with several layers of ruffling on the skirt, and a pink on with several ribbons and ruffles.
** The dress made for "Cinderella" is pale pink with plenty of frills and ruffles, and a yellow flounced petticoat. Even the queen wears an orange dress with golden trimming, white ruffles and petticoat, and giant poofy sleeves. The stepmother and stepsisters have their own fancy dresses as well.
** Leonora in "The Frog Prince" wears a pink and white dress, complete with poofy sleeves and fur-trimmed neckline.
** The princess in "The Water of Life" wears a yellow dress with a pink petticoat of several layers of frills, and a fur-trimmed neckline.
** The princesses in "The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes" wear several dresses, with the eldest wearing a Fairytale Wedding Dress at the end.
* SanitySlippage: It's mentioned in the backstory of "The Coat of Many Colors" that the king gradually lost his mind, with the implication that some kind of meningitis was responsible.
* ShoutOut: A lot to Disney. The most obvious being in the Mother Holle episode, where Hildegarde meets a [[Disney/AliceInWonderland white rabbit]]. Cinderella and Snow White also resemble their Disney counterparts.
* ShownTheirWork: Not only did the show feature many obscure fairy tales, it also included Literature/PussInBoots and Literature/{{Bluebeard}}, despite only appearing in the Grimm's first collection (Perrault's earlier versions are why those stories are otherwise known today).
* SparedByTheAdaptation: The stepmother in "Brother and Sister" has her power broken and ends up wandering the woods in a daze, but she doesn't get [[BurnTheWitch burned at the stake]].
* VillainousGlutton: The wolf from "The Fox And The Wolf", who's always complaining about wanting to eat. [[HoistByHisOwnPetard It costs him in the end]].

Not sure how old it is really. My dad bought it used when I was 7 or 8. That was around 1979. It looked just as old then as it does now.
It's very dirty from sitting in a basement, but I think it's very well preserved for how old it is.
Not sure what model it is either, but it has suspension front and rear. I think it's all original except for the tires.
It's a novelty for sure, but it's great to take on casual rides or for a quick trip to the grocery.
Front suspension between the fork and headtube.
Rear suspension is a block of rubber.
An interesting side note, Mr. Moulton designed the suspension for the original
Austin Mini. It uses rubber blocks too.
According to my father, Moulton sold the rights to an American manfacturer in the late 60's or 70's.
This one is the real deal though.
The serial number starts with 65. Maybe the year???
Actually the whole thing is 65020003. Maybe the 3rd one from Feb 1965???
Who know? I don't know if anyone else appreciates this as much as I do. I think
It's the coolest commuter bike I've ever seen.
Oh yeah, and despite how it looks, it does not fold.
If anyone knows anything about old Moultons, I'd love to know more about their history.
Thanks for looking.

More Johnson County couples are staying married, compared with a decade ago when the United Way labeled divorce as the top problem facing the county.
The divorce filing rate has decreased, and the reasons why vary; but most explanations come back to a consistent theme: more communication between spouses.
In 2013, 854 couples filed for divorce in Johnson County, or 5.9 filings for every 1,000 residents. A decade ago, 905 couples filed for divorce, or 7.9 filings per 1,000 residents.
Johnson County's divorce rate is in line with other central Indiana counties, but higher than the national average of 3.6 filings per 1,000 residents. Indiana is one of six states not to keep statistics on divorce filings.
Financial strain often is associated with causing divorce, but those problems can occur with a couple making $50,000 or $300,000, said Bea Northcott, former executive director of Marriage Investors, a now-dissolved group created more than 10 years ago to offer more resources, such as counseling, to couples.
"It's more how we spend that money that we have," Northcott said. "Financial stressors and communication are two main causes of divorce. If you can't communicate about money, then you probably are not communicating about a lot of other things, as well."
The ramification of divorce goes beyond a relationship ending. Children can be forced to move to another school district, leaving longtime friends behind. Homes will be sold sometimes in order to avoid the conflict of who gets to stay in it.
The United Way labeled divorce as the top problem in Johnson County in 2003, citing a lack of counseling options for married and unmarried couples. A 2002 study by Franklin College showed that 83 percent of divorced couples did not go through any type of premarital counseling.
Marriage Investors was created in 2003 and focused on developing more outlets for couples to receive counseling, initially focusing on premarital training. The organization then focused on developing counseling options for married couples, before dissolving in 2012 due to a lack of financial grants and assistance.
"I think people are working harder to go through counseling and even a separation period before they would rush into a divorce," said Jeff Alexander, pastor at Mount Olive Lutheran Church. "I have noticed that a lot of couples have been fighting to keep their marriages together, so those are some good trends."
Alexander has conducted premarital counseling at his church for nine years. He typically marries six to eight couples per year and each couple goes through premarital counseling, which involves multiple interviews and tests to explore all aspects of marriage, from debt to parenting to family expectations.
When conflicts occur in the counseling process, Alexander said, they generally revolve around three topics: a person's expectations for the marriage, such as how many children are wanted or if the wife should stay at home instead of work; the amount of debt being brought into the relationship; and financial strain caused by planning large wedding celebrations.
"There can sometimes be this huge emphasis on having this huge wedding party, a celebration that costs an inordinate amount of money," Alexander said. "But it seems to me that more people have done away with having a big celebration and doing a smaller one instead."
The number of people getting married also has decreased in Johnson County, with 958 licenses filed in 2013, or 6.7 filings per 1,000 people. In 2003, there were 986 filings, or 8.4 filings per 1,000 residents.
"More people are choosing not to get married for whatever reason," Northcott said. "Therefore they don't have the opportunity to get divorced."
People who wait longer to get married are doing themselves a favor, Northcott said.
"I think you're then more mature and go into it more realistically," she said. "You have life experiences that help you make better decisions. Even going to college is a form of independent living. Mom and dad aren't there to tell you what to do everyday, so you develop those skills. A lot of the younger folks seem to get attached to a relationship, make that commitment and leap, and it doesn't always work out."
Northcott isn't sure the decrease in divorce filings can be easily explained with specific data, she said.
"You can't do that with human personalities," Northcott said.

The producers of the latest in this epic saga have been sharing bits and pieces of the latest, and most mainstream Left Behind movie to date on Facebook, and theyve just posted a short snippet of footage as well as a behind-the-scenes clip. The scene shows Cage as pilot Rayford Steele (RAYFORD STEELE!) with his daughter, played by Nicky Whelan, discussing how his wife left him for another man, than man being Jesus.
There's no word just yet on the return of the supporting cast, which included Catherine Keener, Clark Duke and Cloris Leachman, but I cant imagine theyd all turn down this fairly easy paycheck. I still dont understand why Clark Dukes comedic gifts arent being used in every other movie at this point in his career, but every film counts, I guess.
Youd think this would be all about looking at Cage wearing womens clothing or in the case of The Little Mermaid's Ariel, a bra and tail but its really all about picturing him within the situations that the films put their heroines through.
In Lost Melody, Cage will play a character whose marriage to a bitchy wife leads him to fall in love with a prostitute (not a hint of sexism layered into that sentence at all.) Sadly, there isnt much else to go on as far as a plot description goes, and it doesnt appear to have either children or teenagers involved, as Zwigoffs other features have, (assuming the prostitute isnt 16).
For a movie based on a real-life serial killer, The Frozen Grounds trailer is amazingly bland and as colorless as the attractive snowy Alaskan backgrounds. Hudgens seems to be channeling her inner Brittany Murphy here, playing Cindy Paulson, a girl who escaped the clutches of killer Robert Hansen (Cusack).
All four actors have plenty of action genre cred that should help the four new stars fit in quite well with the rest of the ensemble cast. The question that remains, however, is how the four characters will be used. I'd personally want to see Chan, Snipes and Jovovich join up with the good guys and then cast Cage as a ridiculously over-the-top bad guy with plans for world domination. But what do you think?
The headline says it all, and if that didn't do it, the above image definitely did. Presented to the world via Film Drunk, and created by Brazilian Photoshop master Matheus Candido, this is the Iron Man 3 poster, with every human face replaced by Nicolas Cage. Here's the original poster below, for reference
The Berlin International Film Festival came to a close on Saturday, after showcasing foreign films seem to be of a higher caliber than the popcorn munching moneymakers that American companies are producing and distributing. But right now we want to focus on a Berlin movie that finally stars Nicolas Cage as a caveman. Let us rejoice
Whenever Nicolas Cages name is attached to a project, the film critic side of me sighs and shakes his head in discouragement - but the less snooty movie-watching part of me is jumping over the moon with joy. Regardless of the quality of the films hes appeared in over the last decade or so, Cages performances have rarely failed to entertain on both ironic and non-ironic levels. It doesnt look like his latest project will disappoint my unrefined side.
Fresh off a successful Sundance debut for his made-on-the-sly Prince Avalanche, David Gordon Green is once again stepping up to a festival with a film we'd barely heard about-- and this time, Nicolas Cage is involved. News broke last fall that Cage, along with The Tree of Life and Mud star Tye Sheridan
Those familiar with comic book movie lore likely know the tale of Tim Burton's failed Superman Lives. In the late 1990s the Batman director decided to try and take another stab at the superhero genre, and while his version of the Man of Steel never actually made it to theaters, it actually did make some serious progress in pre-production, most notably casting Nicolas Cage in the lead role and both designing and creating a new version of the suit.
The Expendables 2 added a number of big action star names to the franchise, including Jean-Claude Van Damme, Scott Adkins, and Chuck Norris (not to mention expanded roles for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis). But where does the franchise go from there? Who else is left that the crew wants to see get involved? Today we learn that not only has one new cast member been confirmed, but that they are still going after three other big names.
Nicolas Cage, the Oscar winner and famous crazy person, has spent a solid 10 years of his career being completely unpredictable, taking on only the movies that seemed the most unlikely, the wildest, the most doomed for obscurity if it weren't for his name attached. But I truly, truly don't think he's ever surprised us as deeply as he has today
For better or worse, the family road trip is an institution that is as old as time. So, it's fitting that The Croods, the latest animated adventure from DreamWorks, goes back to the land before time to tell the tale of a family of Neanderthals forced to leave the comfort of their cramped but safe cave behind and set forth to places unknown!
The film will tell the story of Lawrence Horn, a former executive in the music industry who hired a hitman named James Perry to kill his his wife, quadriplegic son and the wealthy family's overnight nurse at their suburban home in Silver Spring, Maryland. Horn was motivated to set up the crime because his son had been the victim of medical malpractice and won a $2 million trust that Horn couldnt collect on unless his son was dead (aka this guy was a true blue dirt bag).
We all love it when Nicolas Cage is allowed to go a little crazy. Sure, he may make some truly terrible script choices, but whenever he is let off the chain and allowed to play angry/strange the results couldn't be more entertaining. Hence why we are very pleased to see that the actor is joining a movie where the plot allows him to do just that.
David Gordon Green has spent the last few years making silly comedies like Pineapple Express, Your Highness and The Sitter (not to mention episodes of the HBO series Eastbound & Down), but now the George Washington filmmaker is heading back into more serious material. He's currently in the midst of developing a remake of Dario Argento's Suspiria and now he's found a star for his gritty, southern drama Joe.
Prior to the release of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, one thing that star Nicolas Cage remarked was different about the sequel from the original was that in the new movie he would actually be playing The Rider, and not some stunt double. What you may not know, however, is that before the visual effects were applied Cage had his face painted like a skull and wore a bunch of glow-sticks on his head. True story.
Nicolas Cage is back in action this fall, starring in Simon West's thriller Stolen, which arrives in theaters next month. The trailer for the film gives us a look at what Cage's character Will Montgomery is up against as he's tasked with trying to rescue his daughter from the clutches of his old partner.
I remember when the posters first came out for The Expendables boasting names like Stallone, Statham, Li, Lundgren, Couture, Austin, Crews, Rourke, Willis. It seemed a dizzying dream to have an action movie so overstuffed with unapologetically burly and badass stars. And the resulting movie was as insane as it was enjoyable.

Mind Body medicine
Quantum Healing by Deepack Chopra
Book Description
This is an extraordinary approach to healing by an extraordinary physician-writer. The book is filled with the mystery, wonder, and hope of people who have experienced seemingly miraculous recoveries from cancer and other serious illnesses.Dr. Deepak Chopra, a respected New England endocrinologist, began his search for answers when he saw patients in his own practice who completely recovered after being given only a few months to live. In the mid-1980's he returned to his native India to explore Aruyveda, the most ancient healing tradition. Now he has brought together the current research of Western medicine, neuroscience, and physics with the insights of Ayurvedic theory to show that the human body is controlled by a "network of intelligence" grounded in quantum reality. Dr. Chopra offers us both a fascinating intellectual journey and a deeply moving chronicle of hope and healing.
Book Review
Dr. Deepak Chopra is a well known and well respected endocrinologist, healer, teacher and speaker, and has written many books and articles on healing and positive living. His first popular book was 'Creating Health' in 1987, and since then he has published around sixty other books along the lines of spiritual strategies for health. In 2012 he published 'Spiritual Solutions', which again combines science, medicine and spirit.
Quantum Healing is full of case studies of patients who have overcome serious and sometimes terminal illness against all the odds. It is a hopeful book with understandable explanations of the links between mind and body.
It is a well written, well planned book which summarizes recent advances in neuroendocrinology, also explained in a fairly simple, non-jargonised way. The theory is that a person can think themselves well because the seat of the mind is not only located in the brain, but is in all the cells of the body.
The writing style is very interesting and instructive and is hard to put down. Dr. Chopra doesn't dismiss western medicine, as he is a practitioner, but he also looks to his roots and training in Aruyvedic healing. He confidently combines the practices of medicine, ayurveda, acupuncture, yoga, and meditation.
The message of the book is that the natural state of our bodies is to be healthy not sick and if we can have mind body unity or co-operation we have greater possibilities for perfect health and overcoming any illness.
The spiritual element of the book is also very important and the description of the messages sent between cells, and the origins of, and reactions to the signals is illustrated by a line of firemen with buckets of water passing the buckets along the line, each getting his bucket from the fireman before him, but where does the first fireman get the message from. There has to be something more. This book is very thought provoking and may open some doors in your mind regarding your health and well being, and should be compulsive reading for trainee doctors.

The Andrean football locker room is not rife with pictures, but one new wall adornment stands out this fall.
It's a team picture, reproduced from the IHSAA's 2012 state football program, of Fort Wayne Bishop Luers. The distinctive background image is Andrean's scoreboard.
For the program Luers used its team photo from the aftermath of its 35-21 win over the host 59ers in the Class 2A northern semistate last fall.
Now it's a reminder of how close Andrean was to state last year.
"I'm not angry, and I don't look at it as disrespectful," Andrean coach Phil Mason said. "But if that doesn't inspire you, if that doesn't burn a hole in your chest, I don't know what will." — Paul Trembacki
Scout time: Hobart junior Noah Smith is one of the Brickies' most passionate players. Coach Ryan Turley said some college coaches from Wisconsin and Miami-Ohio were in to look at senior Nicholas Bokun and they saw Smith and wanted to meet him, too.
The team got done doing their Brickie Jacks and Smith started hollering and jumping around. That's when the coach spoke.
"Man, that kid has passion, I have to shake his hand." — Steve Hanlon
New, but not new: Cole Teal is Chesterton's new starting quarterback, but the senior isn't a rookie. He was thrown into the fray as a sophomore when Chris Katsafaros injured his ankle and ran the show for several games. Teal is also a two-year starter in basketball, so he's not lacking experience in pressure situations.
"That maturity will help," coach Mark Peterson said. "Cole's a really savvy player. He's demonstrated that in game settings. He's a guy who can help us stretch the field, brings things in space. He's a dual threat, passing or running, and he'll make good decisions to benefit the team." — Jim Peters

The engine continues to have multiple misfires ever since It was installed in 2005. I'm running a MSD 6A ignition and just replaced the coil, battery, alternator, plugs (stock plugs), belt, cap and rotor. All the sensors on the throttle body have been replaced too. It does it mainly at low rpm. Fuel pressure checks out good. Any ideas?
