A criticism made by some regarding the respectable Prophet of Islam (S) is the issue of his many wives. Critics say that having many wives is essentially a sign of evil and unconditional surrender before lust. They question why the Prophet of Islam did not content himself with the four wives that he had legitimized for his followers and took up to nine wives at the same time.
This discussion has various aspects related to many verses scattered throughout the Qur'an. I will enter into an extensive discussion regarding all these aspects in the exegesis of the related verses elsewhere. Here I will suffice with a concise presentation of the matter.
First of all, critics must essentially realize that the polygyny of the Prophet was not due to excessive attraction to women. The Prophet's marriages were related to other aspects which I will now succinctly discuss.
The first wife of the Holy Prophet was Khadījah1. He lived with her alone for over twenty years—two thirds of his life after this marriage—without taking another wife. The Prophet was appointed to prophethood in the period after this marriage. After his appointment, he lived in Mecca for thirteen years. After that, he immigrated to Medina and started his widespread religious promotion.
After Khadījah's death, the Prophet married some women, both maidens and widows, young and old. This liberty in marriage lasted for around ten years and, after this, additional marriages were prohibited for the Prophet.2
Therefore, it is evident that the many marriages of the Prophet cannot be due to overt philogyny. The facts that early in his life the Prophet sufficed with only Khadījah and at the end of his life marriage was prohibited for him are inconsistent with the calumny of lasciviousness.
Furthermore, we see that men who have great passion for women, love their beauty and adornments and relish their coquetry and demureness. Such men are mostly fond of young and attractive women who are in the spring of their life. However, none of these characteristics is evident in the spiritual bearing of the Prophet of Islam.
In his marriages he was not bound by any of these matters. Thus, history shows that after marrying a maiden, he also married a widow.3 Also, after marrying a young and beautiful woman, he also married a feeble aged woman.4 The history of the Prophet is the best witness to this fact.
History attests that the Prophet's marriage to Umm al-Salamah, who was an elderly woman, and Zaynab daughter of Jahsh, who was fifty, occurred after his marriage to 'Ā'īshah and Umm Habībah, who were young and beautiful.
In addition, the Prophet himself enjoined his wives against adornments and luxuriousness. He gave them a choice between divorce and a life of austerity and abandonment of adornments and luxury. The best witness to this fact is the Qur'an:
﴿ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لأَزْوَاجِكَ إِنْ كُنتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا فَتَعَالَيْنَ أُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلاً * وَإِنْ كُنتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الآخِرَةَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْمُحْسِنَاتِ مِنكُنَّ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا ﴾
"O prophet! Say unto your wives, 'If you desire this world's life and its adornment, then come, I will give you a gift and allow you a goodly release. But if you desire Allah and his Messenger and the Last Abode, then surely Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a mighty reward'."5
In principle, dislike of adornments and luxury cannot be a mental quality of a person who is madly addicted to relations with women.
A fair researcher has no choice but to justify the many marriages of the Prophet during his middle years on a basis other than lust and hedonism.
Some of his marriages were exclusively to gain influence. He hoped to extend his tribe and kin through marriage in the interests of proselytization.
Certain marriages were for the purpose of appeasing and assuaging various individuals. Though marriage he safeguarded himself against possible dangers to his mission.
In some marriages, his aim was merely to deliver a woman from misfortune and provide her livelihood. In this way he edified his followers in practice and taught them to support the poor and helpless.
In a number of his marriages, the aim was to carry out a divine decree and in this way eradicate some of the unsound thoughts of the Age of Ignorance. This was his intent in marrying Zaynab, the daughter of Jahsh. At first, she was the wife of Zayd ibn Hārithah, who was the adopted son of the Prophet of Allah.
Arabs believed that one could not marry the wife of an adopted son just as he could not marry the wife of his own son by birth. After Zayd divorced Zaynab, the Prophet married her in order to oppose this false thought. There are various Qur'anic verses in this regard such as:
﴿ ... فَلَمَّا قَضَى زَيْدٌ مِنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنَاكَهَا لِكَيْ لا يَكُونَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَرَجٌ فِي أَزْوَاجِ أَدْعِيَائِهِمْ إِذَا قَضَوْا مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًا وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ مَفْعُولاً ﴾
"So when Zayd took his need of her and divorced her, We wed her to you so that there will be no fault for believers regarding marriage to the wives of their adopted sons after divorce and the command of Allah must be fulfilled."6
Approximately one year after the passing of Khadījah, the Prophet married Sawdah daughter of Zama'ah.7 Sawdah's husband died when returning from the second migration to Abyssinia.8 Sawdah was a faithful woman who had gone to Abyssinia with her husband. She held the glorious title of émigré [muhājarah].
When she lost her husband, if she had returned to her family, who were unbelievers, she would surely have been persecuted and maybe even killed. Moreover, they would have tried to force her to revert to her previous unbelief. Therefore, the Prophet married her so that she would be safe from torment and persecution.
Zaynab, daughter of Khuzaymah, was wedded to the Prophet after her husband, 'Abd Allāh ibn Jahsh, was killed in the battle of Uhud. Zaynab was a great and virtuous woman from the Age of Ignorance. She was called "Umm al-Masākīn"—literally Mother of the Destitute—since she showed great kindness and compassion to the poor and needy. The Prophet married her to preserve her status and prestige.9
Another wife of the Prophet was called Umm al-Salamah and her original name was Hind. Before she became the Prophet's wife, she was married to 'Abd Allāh Abī Salamah, cousin and foster brother to the Prophet.
'Abd Allāh was the first person to immigrate to Abyssinia. Umm al-Salamah was a virtuous and devout woman and also a religious authority. When her husband died, she was advanced in age and the guardian of her orphans. Under such conditions, the Prophet of Islam took her hand in marriage.10
The Prophet married Safiyyah, daughter of Hayy ibn Akhtab, chief of Banī Nadīr, after her husband was killed in the battle of Khaybar. Her father was also killed in the same battle. Safiyyah was among the prisoners of Khaybar and the Prophet chose her for himself and freed her. Then, he married her and thus saved her from abjectness. Also, through this marriage he became in-laws with Banī Isrā'īl.11
After the incident of Banī al-Mustalaq, the Prophet married Juwayriyah who was previously named Barrah. She was the daughter of Hārith, the chief of the Banī al-Mustalaq tribe. In the incident of Banī al-Mustalaq, Muslims captured the women and children of two hundred families.
From among them, the Prophet married Juwayriyah. Subsequently, the Muslims freed all the prisoners because they had become the Prophet's kin. Freedom of the prisoners positively influenced the people of the tribe and the whole of the tribe's considerable population turned to the Prophet and converted to Islam. In addition, this deed had a significantly favorable effect on all Arab people.
Another wife of the Prophet of Islam was Maymūnah. Her previous name was Barrah and she was the daughter of Hārith Halāliyah. After the death of her second husband, Abī Rahm ibn 'Abd al-'Uzzā, she gifted herself unto the Prophet. The Prophet set her free and married her. A Qur'anic verse was revealed with regard to this issue.
Umm Habībah was also among the wives of the Prophet. Her name was Ramlah and she was the daughter of Abū Sufiyān. She was formerly the wife of 'Abd Allāh ibn Jahsh. She and her husband were part of the second hijrah to Abyssinia, where her husband became Nazarene. She, however, kept faith with Islam. During this time, her father was a bitter enemy of the Prophet and continually incited the people against Islam. The Prophet married Umm Habībah and thus put her under his protection.
Hafsah, daughter of 'Umar, was also one of the wives of the Prophet. After her husband, Khanīs ibn Hudhāfah was killed in the battle of Badr, the Prophet married her. The Prophet had also previously married the maiden 'Ā'ishah, daughter of Abū Bakr.
Considering these facts and what we have discussed regarding the customs of the Prophet throughout his life, the fact that he was an austere person and eschewed luxury and that he also enjoined his wives to austerity and against luxury, leaves no doubt that basically, the marriages of the Prophet were not like those of others who marry to appease their lusts.
One must also note that essentially the Prophet's behavior with women was courteous and respectful. On the whole women's rights, which in the dark Age of Ignorance had been destroyed under the caprice of men, were revived by the Prophet.
Thus women, who had lost their legitimate status in the human society after many dark aeons of Ignorance, achieved their true position. It is even narrated that the final testament of the Prophet on the threshold of death was a recommendation regarding women.
Regarding the importance of ritual prayer [salāt], the necessity of giving due consideration to servants, and advice about women he stated:
«الصّلاة الصّلاة وما ملکت ايمانکم لا تکلفوهم ما لا يطيقون، الله الله في النّسا فانهنّ عوان بين ايديکم»
"Ritual prayer, ritual prayer (is very important). Also, do not burden servants more than they can bear. For the love of Allah, (I advise you to be considerate) of women for they are allies that are always with you."12
The Prophet's justice, cordiality, and consideration for women were specific to him. We must also not leave it unsaid that, like continuous [wisāl] fasting, the permissibility for marrying more than four wives was restricted to the Prophet and it was forbidden for his followers to perform these deeds.
It was these characteristics of the Prophet that prevented people—even his enemies who were vehemently seeking his weak points—from any kind of protest.13

The KRK VXT 4 features a visually striking enclosure design that is equally functional, providing low resonance, improved structural integrity and extended low-end, slotted ports for reduced port turbulence, plus a sleek curvature that provides excellent imaging characteristics and a wider "sweet spot".
The domed tweeter (comprised of true silk for fast transient response) and the new woofer design (with its stiffer, lighter cone that provides low distortion and extended low-end) both have vented formers to remove heat and reduce the effects of power compression — enabling these monitors to maintain their sonic signature.
With uncompromising attention to detail that includes tamper resistant switch covers, integrated Omni Mount support and more, the VXT Series is an outstanding choice for a broad range of monitoring applications.

Jamey Myers
7223 Melrose Ave.
What we were after: A trim to spruce up our structured bob and bring out any volume.
What we got: Myers employed both scissors and texturizing shears to plump up our baby- fine layers all over.
Bottom line: Our style wasn't a dramatic change, just a softer, bouncier version of what we had before—but we'd seriously consider returning just for the heavenly ten-�minute shampoo and head massage.

Two local businesses are partnering with the nonprofit Children's Center to collect personal hygiene items and food for families.
The Children's Center is a community mental health agency that provides services for children and families.

So the Children's Center has partnered with Twilight Pizza Bistro in Camas and U.S. Bank to hold the drive.
Twilight Pizza Bistro, 224 N.E. Fourth Ave., will collect the following items until Oct. 24: laundry detergent, fabric softener/sheets, bleach, dish soap, sponges, dishwasher detergent, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, mouthwash, toothbrushes, hairbrushes, toilet paper, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, combs, bar soap, peanut butter or other nut butters, canned tuna fish, dry legumes, canned meals, canned soup, bottled fruit juices, breakfast bars, meal replacement bars, bottled condiments, rice, pasta and bottled pasta sauces.
U.S. Bank branches in Vancouver will collect the following items until Oct. 31: toilet paper, toothpaste, toothbrushes, floss, shampoo, laundry detergent, peanut butter and tuna fish.
Items can also be dropped off at the Children's Center, 415 W. 11th St. in Vancouver.

The Best Club in the World; Lord Browne: The Cultured Banker Once of Goldman Sachs and BP Joshua Bolten: US Treasury Simon Robertson: Rolls-Royce Gavyn Davies: Former BBC Chairman
Byline: CHRIS BLACKHURST
AT GOLDMAN SACHS these days, there is reason to feel more satisfied thanusual. Of all the major players, the US-based investment bank seems to haveescaped lightly from the subprime crisis. With brilliant timing, Goldman isreputed to have unwound its exposure to the American homeowners with mortgagesthey might struggle to pay well ahead of their loan defaults.
Rivals at other houses may worry about their bonuses this yearthose at Goldman can rest assured, theirs are OK. The bank is thought to haveearned [pounds sterling]45 billion this year and the 26,000 employees are in line to receive$18 billion in bonuses.
Then there is John Thain, head of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) but aformer president of Goldman and a Goldman veteran to his polished wingtips,being parachuted in to save the oncemighty Merrill Lynch. In banking terms,it's the same as someone in the UK heavily identified with Tesco being asked torescue Marks & Spencer. It's not meant to happenit's a humiliating admission of failure by Merrill and confirmation, as ifneeded, of Goldman's total hegemony.
Goldman alumni are everywhere. Better known members include: Paul Deighton,charged with raising sponsorship for the 2012 Olympic Games; Lord Browne, onceof BP and Goldman; Peter Sutherland, the BP chairman; Simon Robertson, chair ofRolls-Royce; Gavyn Davies, who chaired the BBC after quitting Goldman; NoamGottesman and the other founders of the hugely successful GLG hedge fundbusiness.
The list goes on and on.
Ocado, the internet grocery service, was formed by three traders from Goldman.
Benchmark Capital, Europe's biggest venture capital providerit backed Bebo and Betfair is run by Mark Evans, for 15 years at Goldman.
When Highbridge Capital Management, the giant hedge fund majority-owned byanother bank, JP Morgan Chase, wanted someone to start a private equitydivision, it chose Scott Kapnick, former co-head of investment banking atGoldman.
Such is the extent of Goldman's reach that it was no surprise in New York thatThain's successor at the NYSE, Duncan Niederauer is a fellow Goldman alumnus.
In the US, Daniel Och who last week floated his $30 billion hedge fund is ex-Goldman. Another bank hit hard by the subprime fallout, Citigroup, hasappointed Robert Rubin, formerly of Goldman, to run it. The US Treasury isoverseen by Hank Paulson, once Goldman's chief, and he was hired by JoshuaBolten yes, you've guessed it.
It's not just commercial banksthe president of the World Bank, Robert Zoellick used to be at Goldman, as didthe heads of the Canadian and Italian central banks (in Italy, it's beenrepeatedly claimed that Goldman's representation is so strong throughout theadministration and upper echelons of society that the bank is effectively aquasi-government).
Right across the City, Wall Street and centres of financial and politicalpower, stretch the Goldman tentacles. Some extend to high profile positions.Others reach into the trading floors and corridors of banks and corporations.
Some say Goldman is too powerfulthat such is its domination, that conflicts of interest are bound to arise.They cite the $9 billion merger of the NYSE with electronic trading platformprovider, Archipelago, as a case in point. Goldman owned 15 per cent ofArchipelago, based in Chicago; it owns 21 seats on the NYSE; and Thain, theexchange boss who drove the marriage, was not only a former Goldman kingpin buthe still held shares in the bank. Goldman acted as broker to both the NYSE andArchipelago.
Papers filed in a lawsuit brought by dissident exchange members showed evenGoldman staffers were stunned that they could act for both. "Did you see theNYSE deal?" Brian Musto emailed a colleague, Elena McKee. "Yeah, did you workon it?" asked McKee. "Oh yeahfirst big deal. We advised both sides too," he wrote. "That's freaking amazingsame team of people on both sides? …

How retirement systems vary, country to country
Retirement systems vary widely from country to country. In China, policymakers are just beginning to expand retirement benefits to everyone. In Australia, people have been compelled for years to save for their own retirements. Italy and Germany are raising retirement ages and cutting benefits.
Here's a look at retirement systems in key nations:
The United States is struggling to finance its promises to future retirees. Social Security is the core of its system. Social Security payments are financed by a tax on both workers and employers. The payments average $1,269 a month. Two-thirds of retirees rely on Social Security for most of their income. Americans can collect as early as age 62 but don't receive the full benefit unless they wait later to collect — until age 66 for those born from 1943 through 1959 and age 67 for those born after. Many also rely on corporate pensions. But companies have been replacing them with 401(k)-style plans. These plans require employees to save and invest themselves. But many who are eligible for 401(k) or similar plans don't enroll in them, contribute too little or raid their accounts before retirement.
China's population is aging rapidly. That has left a shortage of working-age people to pay into the pension system. For now, the retirement system remains generous for most city dwellers. Urban workers pay 8 percent of their income toward retirement; their employers add 20 percent. The pensions equal about half of pre-retirement income. Men are eligible for pensions at 60, women at 50 to 55. Only about half of adults are covered by the urban pensions or similar pensions that are available to government workers. In 2009, China introduced a pension plan for rural areas. But it's barely begun. And it pays rural retirees an average of just $12 a month. Policymakers are considering raising the retirement age for urban workers. China tightly regulates investing, making it difficult for workers to put money in riskier investments that offer higher returns and the potential to build significant retirement savings. China is reviewing ways to ease investment restrictions.
An aging Japan is struggling to finance the retirement of its baby boom generation. It has a three-part system: Workers receive a flat-rate pension of about 66,000 yen ($657) a month from a fund partially financed by worker contributions. They also receive a second pension based on their earnings, financed entirely by their contributions. And they can contribute to additional plans that are voluntary. They can collect the flat-rate pension after contributing for 25 years; they become eligible for a full benefit after 40 years. The flat-rate and earnings-based pensions combined replace an average of only about 25 percent of pre-retirement income. Many older Japanese, who had lifetime jobs with good benefits, have accumulated hefty savings. But younger workers, who came of age amid a sluggish economy and corporate cutbacks, are struggling to save.
Germany's retirement system is generous for many, but getting less so. The post-World War II economic boom financed comfortable retirements. The system still provides the bulk of income for retired people — about 70 percent as of 2010. Germans can retire with a full pension at 65, though the age is gradually rising. People born after 1964 face a retirement age of 67. The system replaces 58 percent of average take-home pay. The pensions are funded by a payroll tax with no investment assets backing the government's promises — a so-called pay-as-you-go system. Pensions are tied to earnings during a person's working years. But the formula now reduces pension levels as the ratio of retirees to workers rises. There's an additional benefit that serves as a safety net for very low-income retirees. Many people who work for major employers also have company-based pensions.

"The designer did a great job personalizing this for us. We had 5 entree selections and the designer made them all fit and look balanced on the card. Probably my favorite of the pieces that we purchased."
"The artist sent a beautiful proof for me to review, but unfortunately there was a mistake by the printer that cut a bit of my fiance's head off. After chatting with customer service for a matter of minutes, they resolved the problem at no cost to me and sent me a new set of response cards. Shipping was so fast both times that I still received the second set in half the expected time of the first!"
"Colors stay true to what you see online. Paid for overnight shipping and got them later than the delivery date. Overall love them!"
"All of the elements in this RSVP card design were what I was looking for. I utilized all three lines for an entree option for my guests as well as the name and attendance lines. All very helpful information for my reception that I needed. I also worked with a representative to customize the length of the lines after each entree option. I thought there should be a little more space on the line in case both guests wanted the same entree. The service was perfect and they altered the design to exactly what I was looking for."
"Hello, We love the way the wedding invitation and response cards turned out. I've ordered a lot of my wedding paperstock from Wedding Paper Divas. My only complaint is that the pre-printed envelopes for the response cards were crooked. Our return address was heavily skewed on the white envelopes and it was extremely disappointing. I even saved some as proof. If someone had proof read the envelopes after printing, they would not have sent them out the way they did. I had to use them though due to the timeline on our wedding countdown. Some of the outer wedding envelopes were missing our address as well."

With the arrival of the EU, the countries in the region are forced to adapt their law on copyright and intellectual property. How fast will we adapt to new legislations, what are the changes that have already been made and how is copyright going to be regulated in the age of new technologies and distribution channels? All of the questions above stirred quite a discussion between the 'Copyright Evolution'panel discussion participants, Kristina Delfin Kanceljak, Nenad Marčec, prof. dr. sc. Igor Gliha and IDM's president & CEO, Tomo in der Mühlen and audience members at this year's Weekend Media Festival in Rovinj/Croatia. The audience also had the opportunity to hear how copyright and intellectual property is applied to music, written word, images, recordings and design in general.
The panel discussion also touched controversies – the issue whether copyright is endangering creativity, what about the Creative Commons movement, and is there a conflict between copyright and intellectual property on the one hand and the new generations of creative professionals and media consumers on the other.
The volume of the given practical advice from the experts who know the legislation and its usage on a case by case basis shows that the general audience and the creators - photographers, writers, journalist and musicians in the region aren't familiar with their rights and the true value of their works. Due to limited timing (the discussion was only 60 minutes, but continued way over the term) a lot of questions were left unanswered. However, this was a great introduction for all copyright newbies and those in search for intellectual and creative protection.
You can check out the photos from the panel in our 'Gallery' section.
Last Friday, on October 3, in the crowded Split National Theatre the sixth annual Runjić Nights were held in honor of one of Croatia's greatest popular music composers, Zdenko Runjić, who passes away prematurely in 2004.
As in previous years many of the greatest regional musician made a tribute to his life and work: Neno Belan, Marko Tolja, Maja Posavec, Nipple People, Kristijan Beluhan, Zorica Kondža, Ivana Starčević, Zoran Predin, Vlatko Stefanovski, Doris Dragović, Luky, Nina Badrić, Vlado Greorgiev, Tereza Kesovija, Oliver Dragojević and Stjepan Hauser. A total of 18 Runjić greatest hits were preformed during this musical treat, including 'Živjela ljubav' (engl. 'Long Live Love'), where all of the musicians included in the event sang it together on stage.
Executive Producer of Runjić Night's, Zdenko's daughter and chief organizer of the event, Ivana Runjić expressed her satisfaction with the evening, at which, she says everything clicked in the best possible way. Croatia's President, a skilled composer and music lover, dr. Ivo Josipović honored the event as well.
Famous American rapper Gucci Mane recently released his new single "Gucci time" in which he used a sample by Jutice's "Phantom", sampled from Goblin's famous film theme "Tenebre".
The song "Tenebre" is composed for the horror film of the same title, directed by Dario Argento almost 30 years ago, but the progressive electro-rock sound Goblin created, found its new freshness in the contemporary and very popular French electro (Justice's "Phantom"), and then confirmed its modernity in the newest Gucci Mane's hip hop hit.
The samples taken from the Bixio catalogue of Italian film music, containig also the song Tenebre, have already been used many times in the world's highest hip hop production ((The RZA, Redman, Keith Murray, G-Unit), which only confirms with this latest example, that the quality and richness of the Bixio music are being recognized over and over in the global proportions.
The song "Gucci time"featuring SWIZZ BEATZ announced Gucci Mane's newest album entitled"The Appeal: Georgia's most wanted", that was released 6 days ago.

SCOUT Chicago
Marisa Ross says:
SCOUT Chicago Comedy Festival was a big success! This was our second year but our first year adding the free panels and the response has been overwhelmingly positive! We did a Casting Director Panel on demystifying the television casting process with Seth Yanklewitz, Matt Skrobalak, Brad DeLima, Collin Daniels, Jennifer Rudnicke, Mickie Paskal and myself as the host. The packed audience was made up of students from DePaul, Columbia, Northwestern, Second City and iO. The panelists were candid and truthful and many students have given the feedback that they learned so much. Thank you to the panelists!! We will definitely make this an anchor part of the festival every year!!!!
From Seth Yanklewitz:
"I Cant say enough about how well organized and such a great level of talent this year. For a sophomore event it sure feels like it's been going on for years. Also this was an extremely well run panel. I commend my colleagues. #csa #televisioncasting"

I was just thinking and thought it might be useful to sticky a recruit thread similar to the one that A-Town Cy has kept up for the 2010 Football recruiting season (http://www.cyclonefanatic.com/forum/...rs-thread.html) in each of the forums where recruiting is at least marginally followed (as far as I can tell, football, men's basketball, women's basketball and wrestling...maybe volleyball?). I know I find myself sifting through posts at times looking for information/articles on some of our recruits and I think it would be awesome to have all of the known offers/commits outlined in the first post of a thread that's always at the top of the page in each respective forum (with rivals page and articles linked). Even if this wasn't kept up by Chris, I'm sure that dedicated posters (such as A-Town Cy...kudos for all the work you've put in) could be found to be put to work for the benefit of the board at large. Just an idea I thought I'd throw out there...sorry if it's been posted before...

Shadows Explode by The Gladeyes
The follow up to Psychosis of Love, the duo's acclaimed 2009 album, the new album was recorded over six months as spring gave way to summer toward the end of 2010. By contrast to its predecessor, which was the product of a decade's worth of writing and two years of production, Shadows Explode is less laboured, and has more in common with the long string of hand-made and home-recorded EPs which make up The Gladeyes output through the 2000s.
An album of witchy guitar-pop, Shadows remains strongly informed by long-time touchstones The Velvet Underground and The Carpenters, while adding some of the hazy, romantic riffs of Best Coast and Dum Dum Girls, US all-female bands with whom The Gladeyes share a sonic spirit. It was recorded in locations across Auckland, principally at Gwen's parents house, when the buzzing of cicadas quietened down enough, but also in the studio of collaborator James Hayday, and even a car park, chosen for the inimitable echo it brought to backing vocals.
The songs are slightly less literary than Gladeyes compositions past, with the characters and narratives giving way to songs more personal but also slightly opaque - a product of a writing style which encouraged, even demanded the trusting of instincts rather than lengthy meddling. This extended to the recordings, which valued immediacy and allowed for imperfect takes if they exposed the raw bones of the song, and artwork which returns to the hand-drawn elements which they built their house on. It's elements like this which make The Gladeyes feel incredibly close and personal - the barriers other artists place between themselves and their audience is entirely absent - here instead is a band which in both their recording and writing hones in on details others might find unremarkable, finding and glorying in the realities of life and love, rather than the unrecognisable facsimiles to which we're all too regularly exposed.

SolarStorm X2 2 x Cree XM-L U2 1200lm 4-Mode White Bicycle Light - Black (4 x 18650)
There has been a lot of interest from the bicycle community in this light and fantastic user feedback lately, so I thought I would give you a closer look at it and answer some of the common questions I am hearing.
sku_207021_8_zpsa7931076.jpg IMG_20130723_133139_zpsf9c6acee.jpg
First, the SS X2 is featuring the new Cree XM-L U2 emitter. The XLamp XM-L LED is the industrys highest performance, single-die white lighting-class LED and the U2s are the most up to date, brightest and most efficient of the lot with a cool white beam color.
The lamp has dual XM-ls lined up in a very small and lightweight body. The reflectors are smooth and deep giving excellent throw but with plenty of spill for good overall lighting. This light is one of the brightest I have tested for its size and number of emitters.

The small, water-tight light housing has excellent heat sink fins on two sides as well as the bottom. They are deeper than many heat sinks and provide adequate cooling. The relatively compact size of the housing makes it an easy install for any handlebars (using one of the two different sized rubber bands) or it can be installed on a bike helmet if that is your style.
The battery pack pouch is black nylon and holds the set of (4) 18650 cells that are soldered and shrink-wrapped together. It has a long strap and Velcro for attachment to a tube or belt. One nice feature is the connection point for the power wire. It uses an o-ring as well as a screw down cap to keep the connection tight and waterproof, much nicer than most remote battery set-ups.
For charging, the kit includes a flat pin style charger that also has charge indicator lights:
Red = charging
Green = Full charge
The light has four modes, Low-Mid-High and strobe. One thing that is nice is that the normal modes are single push access while the strobe (which most of us would not use) requires a 2-3 second hold down, so there is no need to switch past the strobe mode every time, a very nice touch.
A great feature of the light is the voltage indicators. There are three of them and they light up in relation to how much battery time is remaining. The breakdown is thus:
Power 80% or more = 3 lights
Power 50%-80% = 2 lights
Power 30 min. or less = 1 light (flashing)
So you wont be left out in the dark with this one. The indicator lights remain on whenever the battery pack is connected so obviously you would want to disconnect for any long periods of time that the light is not in use.
Overall this is a fantastic light and one that is hard to beat at this price especially complete with battery pack and charger. We currently have this light on Sale at DX.com click here to see the price.

The 13 Most Fascinating Unsolved Hollywood Murders
A list of unsolved Hollywood homicides and show business crimes, along with the stories, theories and mysteries behind them. Hollywood is a place of glamour (if you take classic movies as documentaries), and it can be a dangerous place if you're famous, partying too hard, becoming insanely depressed, or caught up with the "wrong" crowd.
People in LA with power and money tend to (sometimes appropriately) think that they're above the law, and often act accordingly.
And most times, the rich, famous, and well-known will do anything, even kill, to protect their reputations and careers. There have been many murders in Hollywood, most of which have been solved, but there are some famous Los Angeles crimes that remain complete mysteries, with an intriguing cast of suspects and multiple motives... but no answers. These are the thirteen most fascinating unsolved murders of actors, actresses, and celebrities.

Who was she?
43-year-old Wood was a successful actress, known for her roles in West Side Story and Rebel Without a Cause. Wood was married to the actor Robert Wagner at the time of her death. The two had a long-term, tempestuous relationship, having divorced in 1957 and remarried in 1972.
The Case
On the morning of November 28, 1981, Wood's body was found floating in a Catalina Island cove. The night before, Wood had been on a nearby yacht with her husband, Robert Wagner, and their friend, actor Christopher Walken.
In the aftermath of her death, authorities concluded that Wood had gone at night to take a dinghy to the dock, and simply slipped into the water. However, Wood and Wagner were seen fighting the night she disappeared, possibly about her closeness to Walken. Wood also had a lifelong fear of water, making the idea of her taking a small boat alone, as Wagner contended, difficult to believe. The boat's captain, Dennis Davern, wrote in a 2010 book that he believed Wagner was responsible for Wood's death, and that Wagner didn't search diligently for Wood when she was missing.
Where the Case Stands Today
For 30 years, Wood was classified as a victim of accidental drowning. However, Wood's case was reopened by the LAPD in November 2011. Davern now says he lied to investigators during the original investigation. Police have currently said that neither Walken nor Wagner is a suspect in their new investigation.

Who was she?
Rappe was a pretty, somewhat successful 1920s starlet who attended a Labor Day Weekend party celebrating Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle's signing a million-dollar contract with Paramount.
The Case
At the raging party, Rappe became ill in Arbuckle's hotel room. Arbuckle found her when he went to change clothes, and he and other guests were seen approaching Rappe. A doctor saw Rappe and stated she was drunk. Rappe continued to be ill at the hotel but did not make it to a hospital until three days later, when it was too late for treatment. She died of peritonitis from a ruptured bladder.
Bambina Maude Delmont, another party attendee, led the charges against Arbuckle, saying Rappe had confided to her that "Roscoe hurt me." Tabloids leapt into the story, with one theory holding that Arbuckle raped Rappe, and his weight (over 300 pounds) caused injuries that led to her death. Another theory was that Arbuckle raped Rappe with a foreign object, resulting in fatal internal injuries for Rappe.
Where the Case Stands Today
Arbuckle was arrested and tried for Rappe's death. His first two trials for manslaughter ended in hung juries, but he was acquitted in his retrial, and received an apology from the jury due to the complete lack of evidence against him. Rappe may not have even been a victim of murder; instead she may have received an illegal abortion, which could have caused the peritonitis that killed her. Though Arbuckle was acquitted, he had been found guilty in the court of public opinion and couldn't find work for years. He appeared in some comedy shorts in 1933, but this comeback ended when he died in his sleep of a heart attack soon after.

The Black Dahlia (Elizabeth Short)v
Who was she?
Short was a 22-year-old who worked as a waitress while hoping to make it in Hollywood. She disappeared on January 9, 1947. A passerby discovered Short's mutilated body in a residential section of L.A. on January 14, 1947.
The Case
Short's corpse was cut in half, and her face had deep gashes. Marks on her wrists indicated she'd been tied up and possibly tortured. A lack of blood at the scene meant she had been killed elsewhere and dumped in the vacant lot where she was discovered. The attractive victim and gruesome murder garnered a lot of press attention. The press started calling Short the Black Dahlia (possibly a reference to Short's dark hair and the recent release of a film called The Blue Dahlia).
The police had a huge suspect pool that included all the men Short had dated and medical students at LA area colleges (who had the surgical knowledge needed to sever Short's body). One later theory is that Dr. Walter Bayley, who lived near the lot where the body was found and whose daughter was a friend of the Short family, was the killer. He died suffering from a brain disease that may have made him more violent and it was rumored he'd been blackmailed by a former mistress about some misdeed.
Where the Case Stands Today
At the time, the killer followed the case in the papers, even going so far as to mail the contents of Short's purse to an LA paper. The case has stayed in popular culture through the years, most notably with James Ellroy's novel The Black Dahlia, but no one has ever been arrested for the crime. Given the large suspect pool and the time that has passed, the murder may never be solved.

Who was she?
Monroe, born Norma Jeane Mortenson, was a famous actress, known for her roles in movies such as Some Like It Hot and for her relationships with powerful men of the day, from Arthur Miller to Joe DiMaggio to JFK.
The Case
On August 4, 1962, the 36-year-old Monroe died in her Brentwood home. Her housekeeper and psychiatrist discovered Monroe naked in bed with an empty bottle of sleeping pills nearby.
Before her death, Monroe had been hospitalized for psychiatric problems and was receiving long-term psychiatric care. Her death was ruled a probable suicide. But many believe Monroe was murdered, possibly to make sure she wouldn't talk about her liaisons with both JFK and his brother, Robert. Although Monroe's affair with JFK had been talked about in Hollywood for some time, her birthday serenade of the President in April 1962 made more people aware of the connection.
Where the Case Stands Today
Although rumors and speculation continue, there is no more definitive answer now about Monroe's death than in the 1960s.

Who was he?
Reeves was an actor best known for playing Superman in the 1950s TV show.
The Case
Reeves died of a gunshot wound to the head on June 16, 1959. He was in his Benedict Canyon home at the time, as were his fiancée Leonore Lemmon and three other guests.
Although ruled a suicide, the fact that the others in the house waited to call the police and that stray bullet cases were found by the body led some to believe Reeves was a victim of homicide, not suicide. He had been having an affair with Toni Mannix, the wife of an MGM executive. One theory holds that the jilted Toni had Reeves killed, another that the cuckolded husband, Eddie Mannix, used his underworld ties to have Reeves killed.
Where the Case Stands Today
In 1999, a Hollywood publicist, Edward Lozzi, claimed Toni Mannix confessed to killing Reeves. However, no proof was offered or found, so the case remains an official suicide.

Who was she?
Born in 1906, Todd was a successful film actress who worked during the 1920s and 1930s. She appeared in Marx Brothers hits such as Horse Feathers and Monkey Business.
The Case
Todd had opened a restaurant called Thelma Todd's Sidewalk Cafe and lived in an apartment above it. On December 16, 1935, she was found inside her car, which was parked near her restaurant. It was determined that she had died from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Although first considered a case of accidental poisoning, the death was ruled a suicide; Todd had been experiencing financial difficulties. But blood spots found in the car and on Todd's face led some to believe she had been killed. She had just divorced a man whom she'd accused of spousal abuse, and some speculated the bad feelings from the split led her ex-husband, Pat DeCicco, to kill her.
Where the Case Stands Today
Todd's body was cremated, so no thorough autopsy was ever carried out. The case remains an official suicide, with no new evidence to support the theory of murder.

Taylor was a successful silent film director, who debuted with The Awakening in 1914 and worked in Hollywood until his 1922 murder.
The Case
Taylor's corpse was found in his bungalow on the morning of February 2, 1922. He had been shot in the back. He had last been seen by his friend Mabel Normand the night before. After she left him at approximately 7:45pm, anyone could have entered his house and shot him. After Taylor's body was found, a crowd gathered in the house before the police arrived, making evidence collection nearly impossible.
His former and current valets were initially suspected, but the fact that Taylor still had his diamond ring and cash in his wallet made people discount the idea of robbery. Taylor had been helping his friend Normand with her cocaine addiction and working with law enforcement to catch her drug dealers, which may have made the criminals target him. The actress Mary Miles Minter had an unrequited crush on Taylor, which made her and her mother suspects as well.
Where the Case Stands Today
An actress named Margaret Gibson confessed to the murder in 1964, but no corroborating evidence was ever found. Taylor's murder remains unsolved, and at this late date it is unlikely that the killer will ever be known.

Chasen was a well-known Hollywood publicist. At 64, she had had a long career in Hollywood, and was known for helping the films she publicized win Oscars.
The Case
Chasen was returning home from the world premiere for Burlesque on November 16, 2010, when she was shot multiple times in her car in Beverly Hills. She died at the scene of the shooting.
Police believe Chasen was shot in a robbery attempt that went wrong. But Chasen's purse was left at the scene. The main suspect, Harold Martin Smith, killed himself in 2010 when police tried to search his apartment building, leaving many unanswered questions. Smith had bragged that he had been paid $10,000 to kill Chasen. But some believe the murder was a professional drive-by shooting that Smith had little to do with, as his only means of getting around L.A. was a bicycle.
Where the Case Stands Today
Smith used the same gun to kill himself that Chasen had been shot with and left no clues as to who, if anyone, may have hired him.

Who was he?
Crane, born in 1928, was an actor known for starring in the popular TV series "Hogan's Heroes" from 1965 to 1971. Crane was a successful actor but his personal life included womanizing and a predilection for sexual indiscretion. He had started recording and photographing his sexual encounters with help from his friend, John Carpenter, a salesman who provided Crane with recording equipment.
The Case
Crane was found murdered on June 29, 1978. He had been beaten to death while sleeping in a Scottsdale, Arizona hotel room. The killer wrapped an electric cord around Crane's neck after he was dead.
Theories for Crane's death included a jealous spouse or boyfriend attacking Crane (which put the suspect list in the 100s) or someone seeking revenge for being recorded without his or her consent. Carpenter was another suspect; besides providing Crane with recording devices, he had also participated in at least one three-way with the actor. People had observed tension between the friends right before the murder.
Where the Case Stands Today
No concrete evidence linked Carpenter to the crime until 1992, when the police found an expert to testify that a photographed spot on Carpenter's rental car was actually brain matter. Carpenter was tried for the crime, but his defense stated that there was no way to be sure what the photograph showed. Carpenter was eventually acquitted and maintained he was innocent until his 1998 death.

Ivers was a talented musician who wrote the song "In Heaven (The Lady in the Radiator Song)" for David Lynch's Eraserhead. He also hosted New Wave Theatre, a variety show which featured punk and New Wave acts. He was good friends with Lynch, Harold Ramis, The Pixies, John Lithgow, and many other stars.
The Case
Ivers was bludgeoned to death in his apartment in 1983. A large group of friends gathered in his apartment soon after his death, and may have unintentionally destroyed evidence by doing so.
Although some of Ivers' friends believe that someone who knew Ivers from New Wave Theatre may have been the killer, there was no evidence tying anyone to the crime. Ivers knew a large group of people, which gave the police a large pool of potential suspects. More prosaically, it could have simply been a robbery gone wrong.
Where the Case Stands Today
Sadly, the case remains unsolved and officially is still under investigation.

Christa Helm
Who was she?
Helm was a party girl who wanted to be an actress. She enjoyed meeting, and hooking up with, Hollywood stars and players as she waited for her big break.
The Case
Helm was beaten and stabbed to death on February 12, 1977. The crime happened outside her agent's West Hollywood home.
Helm allegedly kept a sex diary and recordings of her meetings with powerful people in Hollywood; someone may have killed her to keep these materials and their contents secret. The police never found Helm's diary. With the number of lovers, both male and female, that Helm had, jealousy was another possible motive. Or Helm could have simply been the victim of a random crime.
Where the Case Stands Today
The police interviewed Helm's friends and acquaintances but with no physical evidence and no sign of the missing diary, they never had any promising leads.

Who were they?
Christopher Wallace, along with Tupac Shakur, was among the biggest hip-hop stars of his day. (Wallace, aka Biggie Smalls or The Notorious B.I.G., was from the East Coast and worked with Bad Boy Entertainment, Shakur was from the West and signed to Death Row Records). Both men were climbing the charts and experiencing growing success in the 1990s.
The Case
Shakur was shot and killed in Las Vegas in September 1996 while in a car with Suge Knight, the head of Death Row Records. Wallace was killed in a similar drive-by shooting in Los Angeles in March 1997.
One of Bad Boy Entertainment's stars, which included Wallace and Sean Combs, may have arranged for Shakur and Knight to be shot (Knight survived his wounds). Wallace's death could have been a revenge killing for Shakur and Knight's shooting. Wallace's mother, Voletta Wallace, believed the LAPD was behind his murder and brought a lawsuit against the department in 2002.
Where the Case Stands Today
Voletta Wallace's lawsuit was dismissed. Although the rivalry and enmity between the two stars was real, no physical evidence links the two murders. The cases are still officially under investigation.

Who was he?
Stompanato was involved with the actress Lana Turner, in a relationship that had a history of violence. He was also a gangster who worked as an enforcer for Mickey Cohen.
The Case
Stompanato died of a knife wound on April 4, 1958 at Lana Turner's home.
Turner's daughter, Cheryl Crane, who was 14 years old at the time, confessed to the crime. Crane stated she had picked up a knife to protect her mother during an argument with Stompanato. As there were no fingerprints on the knife, many people believed Turner had stabbed Stompanato, either during a violent confrontation or because she wanted to end the relationship. Crane may have taken the blame for the crime to protect her mother, and because she faced a much lighter penalty as a minor.
Where the Case Stands Today
Crane confessed to the crime, and no evidence appeared that disputed her version of events, so the case went to trial. Crane was found to have committed justifiable homicide to protect herself and her mother.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) -- Connecticut's Dan Ryan was called for holding in the end zone with 1:32 left in the game Saturday, giving No. 19 North Carolina a safety and a 12-10 comeback win over the Huskies.
The Tar Heels(2-0) trailed 10-0 entering the fourth quarter, when Casey Barth kicked a 22-yard field goal. Then, T.J. Yates led the team on two 13-play drive, and his 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Zack Pianalto with 2:36 left tied the game at 10.
Pianalto hurt his leg jumping up and down after the score and had to be taken from the field in an air cast, another bizarre moment from a game that ended in crazy fashion.
After the safety, UConn recovered the onside kick but couldn't get into field-goal range.
The Huskies (1-1) were playing without its best defensive player, injured linebacker Scott Lutrus, and lost starting quarterback Zack Frazer to a knee injury late in the third quarter.

Do the majority of cloth diaper mamas use cloth wipes? I was kind of against using the cloth wipes but now that I've started CD i don't think it would be that big of a deal to do the wipes. What solution do you use to make the wipes?
cloth wipes
i think there was a poll once and its fairly close to 50/50 maybe 60/40....i don't understand why anyone wouldn't want to use cloth though, its so much better and easier to put everything in one place.
i usually just do plain water...when DD is rashy i have a solution with a bit of baby wash, water, witch hazel and tea tree oil.
I don't get 'drunk' I get less classy and more fun
We use washclothes (cheap adult sized washclothes) and run them under the faucet before a change if we think we need them.

A small spray bottle with a drop of baby wash, a drop of baby oil, and the rest water. We spray the bum and wipe with baby wash cloths, wipes I have made or our Baa Baa Baby wipes. Easy peasy.
Honestly making it a simple process that works for you is most important. We used disposable wipes when went Disneyland. IMO cloth picks up the poo better. Two or 3 is plenty for large messes. Also i bought wipe warmer but never used it yet. No complaints for cold wipes so i not going to make him complain :)

We use cloth wipes too- couldn't imagine using disposables and having to throw them away separately. We use half water, half witch hazel and a squirt of baby oil in a spray bottle for ours- makes it easy to throw the bottle in the diaper bag with dry wipes too. Tried just water but it didn't glide over baby's skin very well and I didn't feel just water was clean enough for poo.

PAYMENT MUST BE MADE WITHIN 7 DAYS AFTER END OF AUCTION. Negative feedback will be left and a non-paying bidder report will be sent to EBAY if payment is not received in a timely fashion. PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT BID if you cannot pay for the item. Thanks!! ~~~~~~~ *** Please note - I stand by my shipping costs (I WILL BE HAPPY TO COMBINE SHIPPING) - Please keep in mind that it costs to LIST and EBAY takes a % from the FINAL PRICE so t is a handling fee included in the shipping cost. - @@@INTERNATIONAL BUYERS - please ask BEFORE bidding about SHIPPING/HANDLING Costs!! Please make sure you agree with this BEFORE you bid - or respectfully DO NOT BID!! Thanks!!

Whatever you do, don't call the engine in the EBR 1190RX a Rotax! A bigger bore accounts for the displacement hike over the 1125, while improved heads swirl the air/fuel mixture for a better boom and more power than even the 1190RS. Note the adjustable peg and rear brake lever. Also note the radiator fan and its surrounding ducting used to keep hot air away from the rider.
