text: I am, in the end, the technology guy of U2. All it means is I can fix the printer when it goes out. But I don't tell them that. So above all else, what U2 have tried to avoid over the last 25 years is not being completely crap. But next on the list, down from that, was to avoid being typical, predictable, and ordinary - because it's so very hard to avoid the cliches. Everyone else's, of course - but most of all your own. It's so hard to to keep things fresh, and not to become a parody of yourself. And if you've ever seen that movie Spinal Tap, you will know how easy it is to parody what we all do. The first time I ever saw it, I didn't laugh. I wept. I wept because I recognized so much and so many of those scenes. I don't think I'm alone amongst all of us in that. You know, we're all guilty of taking ourselves and our work way too seriously. We have all gone to hang out in the hotel lobby, like we were doing something really important. But the reason we're all here tonight is that, despite of all the cliches, which do exist, you know, rock and roll, when it is great, it is amazing. It changes your life; it changed our life. Witness, for instance, tonight, the O'Jays, Percy Sledge, Bo Diddely, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, the Pretenders, I mean - amazing, really magic stuff. You can break it down, you can study it all you want, but you cannot just dial it up. It doesn't work like that. And as far as U2 goes, I'm still trying to figure out how - or more importantly, when - our best moments are going to come along, but I think that's why we're still awake, and that's why we're still paying attention. And we know in the end, you see - we know that it is magic. And so we end up waiting around, like we all do sometimes - like actors in some Beckett play - just like they did in that Spinal Tap movie, in the lobby, waiting around, waiting for some magic to happen. And we've done a lot of that over the years, I have to say. I've done a lot of waiting with Bono, with Adam, and Larry, and Paul, for those moments to come along. And we've had some brilliant people with us all that time. Our producers, Steve Lillywhite, Brian Eno, Danny Lanuar, Jimmy Iovene, Nelly Hooper. Our great engineers, Principle Management, Dean, that one of us talked about, Flood, our show collaborators that have been with us from the beginning - Willie Williams and all his team, our road crew, fantastic people, Joey Hurlaheigh, Bucky, Jake, Dallas, Frazier, who isn't here, Stuart - incredible people that we couldn't have hopes of going through the last 25 years without. And tonight it feels like it's just about half the room has been along with us on that journey. So I just want to say thank you to my family for being so patient, my mom and dad for showing me how, the rest of the band particularly, and tonight, for all of you, for this evening - and I guess, most of all, for making space for me as we all wait together for something magic to happen. Thank you.

Statins May Weaken Eye Muscles
A new study in Ophthalmology claims statins, very popular cholesterol-lowing drugs, may cause rare eye disorders, like eyelid-droop, double-vision and weakening of the muscles that control eye movement. Researchers examined 256 cases where statins, such as Lipitor, Zocor and Crestor, were associated with eye-muscle disorders, of the cases, 62 patients reported no more eyelid-droop or double vision after they stopped taking the medication. Experts call this side-effect rare; Reuters investigates.
Statins might make drug companies a lot of money, but they come with a price. According to Dr. Fuhrman, other side-effects of statins include hepatitis, jaundice, liver problems, gastrointestinal complications, low platelet levels and anemia. And many doctors question whether statins even prevent heart attacks at all!
There's a better way. A diet rich fruits and vegetables improves cholesterol and reverses heart disease.

Compared to the Nintendo DS Lite, it is smaller in every dimension, weighs less, has larger screens, and has better speakers. It features two built-in 0.3 megapixel cameras, one on the bottom-right corner of the cover facing out and one on the hinge facing in, where the microphone is located on the DS Lite.
What's even more cool about this new handheld system is that it'll also act as a music player. All its media content will be stored on an SD memory card. It even comes with a web browser! Finally, you'll be able to download software directly through an online Nintendo store. The Nintendo DSi will be released in Japan on November 1st this year at a price of 18,900 yen (or about $180), and will be released outside of Japan in 2009.

ZF-12418: Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath flags "isEmbeddable" to false even if license allows embedding
Fonts that have multiple embedding bits set, will not be embedded if the 'restricted license embedding' bit is set.
If one the bits 0x0004 or 0x0008 is set, the font is free to be embedded (with some restrictions): Restricted License embedding (0x0002) Preview & Print embedding (0x0004) Editable embedding (0x0008)
If multiple embedding bits are set, the least restrictive license granted takes precedence.
The following code in Zend_Pdf_FileParser_Font_OpenType prevents the correct handling of the flags:
====================== 8< ====================== if ($this->isBitSet(1, $embeddingFlags)) { /* Restricted license embedding. We currently don't have any way to * enforce this, so interpret this as no embed. This may be revised * in the future... / $this->isEmbeddable = false; } else { / The remainder of the bit settings grant us permission to embed * the font. There may be additional usage rights granted or denied * but those only affect the PDF viewer application, not our code. */ $this->isEmbeddable = true; } ====================== 8< ======================
So even if a font has "Editable embedding" set, it will not be embedded by Zend_Pdf if "Restricted license" is also set, although the least restrictive bit should apply.

Council Will Introduce an Amendment Tonight to the FY 2014 Operating Budget and Meet on June 27 to Vote on the Amendment
Posted on 06/20/2013 3:37 pm
Wilmington City Council President Theo Gregory said today that City Council will introduce an amendment to the FY 2014 Operating Budget at tonight's meeting and will meet again next Thursday (June 27) to vote on the amendment.
Gregory said amendments or adjustments to a budget are typically made during the one month period between passage of the budget in late May and the July 1 effective date of a budget. He said Council has determined that a few changes to the balanced budget approved on May 30 are appropriate for further review by the Finance Committee which will meet on Monday, June 24. The Council President said his goal is to have the budget changes approved by Council and in place by July 1 when the new fiscal year begins.
Council's budget amendment would add approximately $487,000 to the City's approved budget, for a new fiscal year General Operating Budget totaling $145.6 million. The revised budget would still leave the City with a surplus of $108,141 instead of the $297,000 surplus which was factored into the budget approved by Council on May 30.
If approved by a majority of Council on June 27, the budget amendment is intended to accomplish the following:
· Restore $300,000 to the Mayor's Office contingency budget—an amount that had been removed from the budget by Council in May to be used as leverage in its budget dealings with the Administration. Council President Gregory had previously stated publicly that this funding would be restored to the Mayor's budget once the FY 2014 budget was officially adopted.
· Restore $18,000 to the City Planning Department to enable the Department to hire a staff person to assist persons with disabilities. This amount would be coupled with other funding within the department to complete the hiring.
· Restore approximately $89,000 to the Human Resources Department to fund a position that would help manage the City's multi-million dollar Kronos System which tracks the daily work hours of employees and provides accountability for work practices.
· Provide an additional $80,000 to the Finance Department's budget so the department can hire more temporary workers to collect revenue. The Council President said Council is taking this action after discussions last week with Fred Sears, Chairman of the Wilmington Economic and Financial Advisory Council (WEFAC) after the Administration requested that WEFAC meet this week to consider lowering the City's revenue projections for the new fiscal year. Sears informed Gregory that the Administration told him that additional funding is needed to hire temporary revenue collection staff so revenue projections for FY 2014 can be achieved. Once the Council President assured Sears and other WEFAC members that a budget amendment would be introduced tonight, WEFAC cancelled its scheduled meeting.
In order to add the additional budget resources listed above, Council is revising two appropriations made in the original May 30 approved balanced budget. The first is $250,000 originally appropriated by Council for an enhanced trash and recycling collection program, which the Administration has indicated it is not ready to proceed with at this time. The second change involves an original appropriation of $142,000 to a minority business development program which is being reduced to $50,000. The difference of $92,000 is being applied to the revised budget items listed above.
"As the Administration and most citizens know by now, City Council indicated throughout the FY 2014 budget process that it was willing at any time to meet and discuss the budget or negotiate budget-related issues with the Williams Administration," said Gregory. "Our legislative branch wants to continue to work cooperatively with the Administration. Such cooperation, we feel, will help both the Administration and Council keeps its focus on the many other important issues that are facing the City in addition to the budget."

Lee Likes Bikes and I Like Lee And Bikes Too
Submitted by Cheri Felix on
Lee McCormack (Photo Credit: 303Photo)
I should be showering and getting into my normal position by now. I like to be HBT (horizontal by ten) but when you spend five hours on the bike and you have three kids and you have to eat, well the HBT doesn't always work. Plus I'm a little excited about something.
I did a bike clinic today. Me and five of my fav girls met Lee McCormack from Lee Likes Bikes at Valmont Bike Park. We arranged for a three hour clinic. I had met Lee before so I knew what was going to happen; he was going to rock each one of our worlds. I wasn't sure how but I just had a feeling that each one of us would leave the bike park looking at things a bit differently. And I was right.
Lee is one of those guys that knows what he's talking about and he gives you the information you need without being judgy or impatient. It's like for those three hours each one of us was his best friend. He has this quality of teaching with so much excitement that you feel like it is his first time. But you know it isn't. He's too good. We started out on pavement working on our balance and moving into using our feet as our core position. Then we worked on braking and cornering and in between all of that Lee talked about using the bikes to do what they already know how to do. How to work with the bike and not against it and how to ride rad and stay on the bike. Versus over your bars. And for us six girls with 16 kids between us staying in one piece and having the best time doing the thing we love is the goal. And oh yah, to be rad and to shred too.
Author: Cheri Felix (Photo Credit: 303Photo)
Lee breaks it down so that by the time you get to the dirt, to the pump track you start to see that every step he showed us, every little simple yet profound step is what makes us better on the pump track, on a ride at Hall Ranch, in a race.
For those of you who think you don't need a clinic or think you aren't good enough or are too good, I'd challenge you on that. I thought I knew. I've been riding for a long time. I feel sort of cool some times. Not fast (except on downhill) but sort of cool. But remember how butter was bad and margarine was good and then butter was good again. And eggs. And how babies used to sleep on their stomachs and now they tell us to put them on their backs? My point is that things change. Things get better. We learn and we improve and we better ourselves. And a bike clinic with Lee McCormack will help you get there.
I've always tried to be honest with you. And tonight is no exception. Lee is great and he brings his A-game to his clinics. Something shifted out there for each of us. I watched a friend do something I never thought I'd see her do. Something that was way out of her comfort and skill zone at 10 a.m. But by 12:55 something switched and she got (even more) rad. And that was worth the price of admission.
Here's how you do it. Go to Lee's website www.leelikesbikes.com Email him and sign up. It's not hard. I know you want me to relay everything I learned but I can't. I'm still marveling in it all. Plus I'm not Lee and you'd be short changing yourself if you thought you could learn it all from an article. Get at it and let me know how it goes.

Beside Quicksilver this is my most frequently used app. I can't work without it. Anyhow it only handles text entries. This is all I need. My productivity on Terminal is boosted by this tiny little friend.
Useful indeed, but it just handles text.
It would be nice if it could handle pictures too.
Maybe in a future version...
this is oh so helpful. i am a horribly sloppy coder, and this little app helps so much with trial and error when i am putting together some java or javascript in textwrangler or editing some redundant css. furthermore i have never been a fan of transparent windows or "pop-up helpers", but have found myself growing quite fond of that sticky bezel, my hot-key for it is "command-shift-.". what a nice piece of software.
This has saved my neck a number of times.
I'd struggle to live without this little app now. It saves so much time when you need to copy and paste chunks of code across multiple documents. And as bifter says above, once you get used to using Jumpcut's keyboard shortcut, it just seems like a logic part of the OS.
Once you have this figured out there is no turning back to a cut n paste with a memory of only one. Excellent app that I use all the time - in fact I have set it to boot when my mac starts. It seems to run as part of the operating system.

Reviews for Hawaiian Wedding Cake
"Light & tasty. Easy to make."
"Made this for my daughter's 6th birthday which was a Hawaiian theme. All of the adults loved it but some of the kids were just "so so" with it. I would definitely make this again as it was quite good and knowing that it is light made all of us adults who are watching our weight feel less guilty about indulging."
"I have a question, wana make this cake today ...do i mix in the ingredients from the bak of the box or only bittermilk egg and eggwhites?"
"ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! Thank you for the recipe! I made it for Easter dinner today--the only thing I changed was I upgraded the lo cal to regular whipped cream and cream cheese, pudding and pineapple with sugar(regular). I thought about changing the buttermilk to the pineapple juice but left it alone--the cake was extremely moist---VERY GOOD!! It is already requested for NEXT WEEK it was so good!!!"

The 62 service requests on Mesquite, Texas' public works homepage read like a who's who of potential complaints. From "repair pothole" and "traffic signal lamp out" to "schedule a large item pickup" and "50/50 sidewalk replacement program," all the usual suspects are there.
Here's what's not listed: Give us a new look, one that distinguishes us from all the other tired, old suburbs around here. Make our facelift so good it shames local businesses into spending millions to spruce up their look. Do whatever it takes to make our needs top priority with the state.
But that's what they're getting with two of the first projects launched to facilitate "Project Renewal." Adopted in 2007, the city's long-term plan wisely makes infrastructure key to enticing developers into Mesquite instead of other potential Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex locations.
Public Works Director Tim Tumulty, PE, and City Engineer Matt Holzapfel, PE, decided to widen a primary access point — Tripp Road and bridge — adding architectural flourishes to make the assets beautiful as well as utilitarian. They'd been pursuing their second project — an interstate exchange that's spawned $25 million in retail renovations and $92 million in proposed new development — for 15 years.
In the process, they set precedents for themselves, neighboring colleagues, and the state.
Built in 1939 by the Works Progress Administration, Tripp Road's bridge was two lanes of asphalt with 2- to 5-foot-deep borrow ditches alongside. The goal was to turn it into a distinctive four-lane undivided concrete curb-and-gutter structure with internal storm drainage.
The 1-mile stretch of road and bridge presented multiple design challenges. A six-lane thoroughfare intersects the road within 200 feet of the bridge, which meant engineers couldn't change the grade of either. Extremely limited right of way around the primarily residential location necessitated negotiating and buying various types of easements and parcels.
The flood-prone region has extremely strict hydraulic requirements. A city ordinance prohibits designs from raising the 100-year surface elevation of a fully developed watershed upstream. So when his design showed the bridge would add 3/8 inch, Holzapfel had to get a variance to his own department's drainage requirement.
In 2003, Holzapfel went looking for a precast concrete bridge that could meet these specifications. Only one company offered shallow enough arches to provide sufficient hydraulic capacity within a limited height.
"The 430-linear-foot bridge was not a 'basic model,'" he says. "We looked at many different systems but ended up specifying Conspan due to the shape of its arched section. At the time, other fabricators of precast arch products didn't have a product that met this unusual hydraulic requirement."
Engineering consultants Kimley-Horn and Associates Inc. submitted floodplain modeling to the Federal Emergency Management Agency to obtain a Conditional Letter of Map Amendment before construction could begin. By the time the city went to bid, the economic boom had reached its apex. Material and labor costs were at their peak.
The city uses BidSync, an electronic bidding and procurement service powered by RFP Depot, to advertise requests for proposals. Of the 79 contractors who downloaded the notice, 46 asked for bid documents and six responded. When they were opened in January 2007, bids ranged from Rebcon Inc.'s $9.4 million to Texas Sterling Construction LP's $11 million.
The lowest were $48,000 apart but still more than estimated. Though the Mesquite Quality of Life Corp. had committed most of the funding — $8.7 million — public works tapped into unreserved water and sewer funds and contingency funds from another road project to make up the difference.
Construction took 158 days and was finished by December 2008. As demonstrated by the resident letter at left, it's evidently a success.

The plot was hatched last night. It began as a dare by my friends Anne and Sarah, and after a couple of drinks it was settled. We would go as curiosity seekers, observers of the human condition, anthropologists of a sort. So now here we are, lurking behind a low stone wall on the edge of Central Park, across the street from the church where my ex-husband is taking a spanking new bride. We are here to spy.
Friends of mine tipped me off to where the wedding would be held. They were invited, but boycotted the festivities in a show of solidarity. Why they gave me the information, I don't know, but it's safe to say they had no idea what I would do with it.
As Anne, Sarah and I wait for the happy couple to emerge aglow in connubial bliss, I imagine myself a Pygmy armed with poison darts: thwack—straight into their necks. Down the church steps they would tumble, a tangle of tulle and Armani. Blood would trickle onto her lovely white dress; her high heel would impale his heart. "Such a pity," their friends would say. "They were so in love."
My 10–year-old daughter is a flower girl in the wedding. I never asked what her dress looks like. I don't know who will sit with her three-year-old sister during the cere-mony or how the girls feel about this event. When their father picked them up yesterday, they were unusually quiet. "Have fun," I said, as I kissed them good-bye, wishing I really meant it. They'd said almost nothing about the wedding, and I had no idea how to approach the topic. I felt guilty about my silence until my therapist told me that if the girls wanted to talk, they would, but not to press them. "Children of divorce are conflicted," she said. "They find it hard to bridge the two worlds." I know how they feel; I find it hard to bridge the two worlds too.
"What if the children see me?" I ask Sarah, as I peek up over the wall. "The last thing I want is for them to see their mother conduct-ing covert operations. They'll think I'm pathetic."
"You are pathetic," Sarah replies. "But it doesn't matter. They'll never spot us here." The park is lush with greenery, and we are posi-tioned approximately a hundred yards to the left of the church. I pray she is right. I wouldn't be on this mission if I'd had time to adjust to the idea of my ex's remarriage, but this is May and we were officially di-vorced only last August. After 10 years of marriage and two children, he left with the simple explanation that he "didn't want to be married anymore." The day after my attorney informed me that the divorce was final, my now-ex called to tell me he was engaged.
With the children to focus on, I've barely had time to figure out how to be single again—and he has a whole new wife. I have no idea who she is or how they met, which is just as well, I suppose. The less I know, the less I hurt. But still, I wonder, what kind of fool would leave a girl like me? What does she have that I don't, other than my husband?
I don't share my questions with my friends for fear they will answer honestly. Instead, I engage in small talk, pretend that skulking behind a giant oak with a pair of binoculars is perfectly normal behavior. Anne has appointed herself lookout, and she takes her responsibility seriously. The binoculars are hers. We pass them back and forth, adjusting the focus until we have it just right. After an interminable 45 minutes, people begin emerging from the church.
"Give me those," I say, grabbing the binoculars out of Anne's hands. I realize as I peer through them that there is something twisted about this. It's sort of like watching your own open-heart surgery. Without anesthesia.
"It's Paul and Ellie. Those turncoats!" I gasp, even though I never liked either of them. I have a similar reaction every time anyone I know walks out, including my former in-laws. Somehow, I'd hoped they wouldn't attend.
The guests mill about the church steps in the warm spring sun. They must be preparing for some pagan ritual like throwing rice or rose petals or maybe pebbles. Pebbles would be a new and interesting thing to throw.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman with a sagging jawline and upper eyelids heading south will try pretty much anything to fight the effects of gravity. And if that woman (okay, me) meets a very smart, very talented man (Robert Anolik, MD, a board-certified dermatologist) who says he can help, it is hard not to consider it a date with destiny – or at least an appointment with the latest high-tech beauty procedure.
So…on a rainy Tuesday morning, I show up at The Laser and Skin Center of New York to get Ulthera, the only ultrasound treatment currently approved for aesthetic purposes. "It's a breakthrough because it uses sound waves to reach past the outer layer of skin to the layers beneath to stimulate collagen and produce tightening," Dr. Anolik explains. (Thermage, which promises similar results, used radio-frequency waves.) The results take two to four months to become apparent. On the plus side: Ulthera is non-invasive, there's no downtime, and the results last from one to two years. The downside? I wouldn't exactly call Ulthera pain-free.
After changing into a robe, a nurse gives me a painkiller and paints a super-numbing cream on my face. (And I mean super: my face was still numb ten hours later). After waiting an hour for it to take effect, Dr. Anolik came in and sat down beside me, the ultrasound wand in his hand. As he ran it over my face, he studied the images of the my skin on the screen beside him so that he could accurately direct the heat waves. And then he got to work. It felt like a multitude of sharp pricks pressing into my skin as he did the first pass on my jaw line. (Is it bearable? Totally. Is it pleasant? Not particularly. But I'm a big believer in closing your eyes, clicking your heels and repeating: I will look better, I will look better.) Luckily, the second pass was gentler. Through it all, Dr. Anolik kept up a soothing banter, constantly asking how I was doing, explaining what was happening, and making me laugh. When he was ready to move up to my brow, he explained that he would only do one pass as that less fleshy area tended to be more painful. I would have kissed his feet if it wouldn't have disrupted the treatment.
The whole procedure took an hour, and unlike some other life experiences, there was no residual pain, though my face remained bright red for hours. (A friend I ran into asked if I'd snuck off on vacation and gotten a sunburn.) By the next day, it was as if the whole thing never happened.
Flash forward two months. I stumbled in the bathroom this morning, glanced in the mirror and had the somewhat unusual (for me) thought: I looked pretty good. Not Julia Roberts good, but me-after-a-good night's sleep-good. Which, for the record, I hadn't had. I was stumped, until it hit me: The Ulthera was kicking in. Somehow, I'd forgotten all about it, but now I was faced with the evidence. My eyes were far less hooded (I had lids again, seriously!) and my drooping jaw was back where it should be. Do I look twenty? No, but that wasn't my goal. I looked, well, better, in that 'can't-quite-put-my-finger-on it' way that I was aiming for. I'll take Dr. Anolik over gravity any day.
(Ulthera is best for those with mild to moderate skin laxity. Prices range from $3000 to $5000 depending on the areas done.)

ZF-3516: Zend_Filter_HtmlEntities should support htmlentities() fourth argument double_encode
Zend_Filter_HtmlEntities uses htmlentities with 3 arguments, while the function has a 4th argument that determines if already-encoded entities are skipped or not.
Should be used and available to set/get, to enable using the filter on a string that might contain entities.
I can submit a patch to resolve this issue, but I want to clarify something first. Since the optional 4th argument of htmlentities() was added in PHP 5.2.3 and the minimum ZF version is 5.2.4, do we need to examine the PHP version and react accordingly or can we simply assume support for it? If we do need to test for PHP version, here are the possible scenarios:
1) Only 3 arguments given. No need to test PHP version; call htmlentities() with 3 arguments. 2) All 4 arguments given and PHP >= 5.2.3. Call htmlentities() with 4 arguments. 3) All 4 arguments given and PHP < 5.2.3. Call htmlentities() with 3 arguments and/or throw an exception.
I'm wondering exactly how to handle scenario #3.
NOTE: Current minimum PHP version for ZF taken from this URL: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/…

Hi guys,
Just got Mine to roll again, with new cyls, etc.
I added oil filter into return line (from a Panhead) some time ago. So now when I started "new" engine I could see how oil circulates. I wondered that last season also (now new cyls).
From return line oil comes at idle as pulses. Do not want to throttle much more now, when new things in. Seems like oil amount has to raise to some level in cranck-case and then it spits it out. As a "batch". Should it be constant flow or what?

where are you from, anyway, internet pilgrim? I'm honestly just asking.. I'm just going to get Mewtwo to permaban you soon as you become a full-blown annoying troll.
Rayne if you tell me where the city of Raynes is I promise I personally will never, ever ban you
Rayne's a fag.
You know what's incredibly pitiful? Submission. Don't sell your integrity, you get no commission.
Yeah. It should be on wikipedia "Rayne- fag."
You know what's incredibly pitiful? Submission. Don't sell your integrity, you get no commission.
Go back to being banned, it was the only time you actually did anything productive
your own advice and shut the fuck up. I'm not here to cause trouble, but I can do that and much more if you bring me to it.
Your such a joke, I'm just finding different ways of getting someone to ban you
Quit the facade. You don't want to go up against me again because you know I'll beat you. It's too much of a waste of my time to continue this little bitchfight so just admit that I bruised your ego and you're too butthurt to make any post that kicks a message in, and I won't think any less of you. I couldn't possibly.
You've got nothing to threaten me with other than banishment, which is further proof that you ain't got shit. And what makes this funny is that bans are easy to evade and even easier when half the staff is in hibernation. You honestly can't do anything to me other than wave half-assed satire everytime I post. You're just another retard pretending to laugh.I'm just finding different ways of getting someone to ban you
And I repeat:

I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What God desires is here [points to head] and here [points to heart] and what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man - or not.
Lolno. I hate the repetitiveness of the games and unoriginality of the anime. I do like Pokemon though, in the general sense.
Lolno. I think the majority of the members here are alright. It's a few I have a beef with.he hates everyone here,
Lolno. Me bitchfighting Mario is a waste of time. He doesn't seem to get that though.and he believes this is a waste of time...
Alright, seriously guys... Every single one of you needs to learn the proper usage of the words "You're" and "Your". Thank you. And Rayne totally said butthurt. I might have to use that word. It was actually a little funny. I never thought I would say this, but props go to you for that word Rayne.
You know what's incredibly pitiful? Submission. Don't sell your integrity, you get no commission.
Of course there's a difference between you and him because the elitists over here obviously like you and you're less shitty than he is. But the similarities hold ground nonetheless.
Tell me, nigga, would you like me to whoop your ass as I did his? Because, honestly, you hiding behind Mario's back sucking God's dick while taking cheap shots at me is getting annoying.
Your really a joke, stop taking yourself seriously, no one else here does.
I wish we had an active mod around here.

The table bench can be easily configured to be used as a bench in your auditorium, as a training table in your classroom or as a cafeteria table when combined with a second convertible table bench. Its nesting table/bench tops allow multiple units to be pushed together to accommodate compact storage, while four rolling casters (two lockable) make transportation simple. Removal of the front support beams on the table makes transportation, storage and set up easier for your convenience. A table-to-table coupling device comes standard with each table, and safety locks prevent users from pinching their fingers when folding the tables one way or the other.
This 7'W convertible table bench is made with safety, quality, ease of operation and value in mind. Each table is made 100% in the USA with 3/4" thick high pressure laminate table tops supported by heavy duty 14 gauge steel framework. Frames are then reinforced with metal gussets for additional strength. Extra support legs provide stability to support four times the normal load capacity of the standard table or bench, making this table bench a smart option for use in schools and heavily used areas. Chrome finished legs resist scratches and stains and give off an attractive, professional look.
Fully assembled.

I've got a closeout Jet 9 RDO on order from Outside Outfitters. I guess with what people are seeing I would be well advised to wait to see what version frame I get and if it comes with a headset or not.
Funny how Niner flip flops on the headset standards. RIP 9 aluminum went from Integrated to Internal(ZS) headset for the latest models and JET 9 RDO went from Internal(ZS) to Integrated for the latest models.

Amidst the 600 acre Satellite Township and a 75 acre Institutional segment, this 4 acre piece of land was identified closer to the lake to achieve maximum possible natural scenic value. The lake wraps around one third of the site and ensures to carry a cool breeze.

M&M's has been very good recently with releasing limited edition flavors for the holidays. There was the Candy corn M&M's for Halloween, the Mint and Cinnamon M&M's for the Holiday season, and now that Valentine's Day is fast approaching we have Cherry M&M's. This isn't the first time that M&M's has tried a cherry flavoring. Way back in 2008 when I was still writing for CandyAddict.com I reviewed the Wildly Cherry M&M's when they first came on the market. Then they released the Cherry Cordial flavor for the holiday season. Still, this is the first plain "Cherry" flavor for M&M's, so like anything new I have to try it. I know it's an impossibility, but I do wish I had samples on hand from the older flavors so I could see how they compared to this new flavor.
In case you had any doubt in your mind, this package lets you know it's for Valentine's Day. We have the ladies man "Red" on the front, dressed in a tux and holding out a giant heart shaped box that reads "be Mine". In his other had he holds two cherries, and the back ground is swirled with hearts. It's pretty romantic. I am also very pleased that they managed to do a package design without any pink on it.
The M&M's candies are all red or maroon colored, and vary in size by a little bit. Some are larger and some are smaller.
You can smell the cherry flavor on the M&Ms right away. It's bright and metallic, with a strong juicy note that has a floral edge to it. It's a cherry flavor I haven't enountered much before. The aftertaste is a little medicinal, but by all mean it's not unpleasant.
It's funny how the cherry flavor diminishes each time you pop a new flavor in your mouth. I've paired these with coffee, and I've also shared them with my fiance. At first he seemed hesitant, since he isn't big on cherry flavors. Soon he was eating them piece by piece exclaiming that they are "Pretty good"! If you're a cherry lover, I do recommend giving these a try. Like other cherry flavors M&Ms has done in the past, these are tasty if you like red candies!

Who Wants One?
Latest News
Who Wants One?Posted byMay 11, 2011Filed under:1672
I would say Lupe's whole catalog, but if i had to choice it be dumb it down because the beat is great and plus the songs hook concept is so true.
All Black Everything because the beat is sick and the lyrics opened my eyes on a lot of things especially how it depicts how the past would if everything was the opposite of what it was.
words i never said. it is the model for showing how powerful, appealing, and far reaching an artist can be when they speak about meaningful issues in their work. Peeps who never knew what Gaza Strip is...now know. Ya dig.
Words I Never Said Because like Lupe, I'm Muslim. He understands everything and explains it back to his listeners. It's as simple as that.
S.L.R is my favourite, the beat is sick and he is lyrically off the chain throughout the whole song!!!
my favorite lupe song is hurt me soul. when you follow artists, its always interesting to learn about how they got into rap & how they grew up. lupe addresses that in the 1st verse of this song. not only did he describe how he got into rap, but he kept it real. i was surprised when he said he didnt even like rap at first. then him talking about jay-z's streets is watching vid was cool because ive seen that vid so many times as well. its cool to hear about his opion on rap back then plus his inspirations. not only did he address problems he had with rap music and problems he faced growing up, but he addressed problems in the world. if one song could describe lupe's catalogue id pick this one because lupe talks about problems & what needs to be done to fix them. i remember at fiasco friday fans were getting asked why protest an artist and not other problems going on in the world? the thing is, lupe talks about thos eproblems in hi smusic (especially in hurt me soul with the hooks & 3rd verse) so when we protest for lupe, we protest for problems in the world as well. just like in lupes music and this song... when we listen to the lyrics, were paying attention to real issues going on in the world. theres real substance behind the lyrics rather than stereotypical mainstream songs in music. i picked this osng because its just the perfect example of great lyrcism, great content, & just simply great music. fnf up!
my fav song is kick push 2. i know a lot of people never heard it but i like it because....well i cant really put it in words me being in and from Chicago on the west side i think i just can relate to it and im just 13..ha well im think im a mysfit . im a little nerdy ..well some people say im a cool nerd and i think this song just describe me
Three guys walk into a bar,the first one says i have the longest arms in the world,the second one says i have the longest legs in the world,the third guy says i make the best music,so they went to the office of the guiness book of world records and the first guy comes out and says i do have the longest arms in the world,the second guy comes out and says i do have the longest legs in the world,the third guy comes out and says who the fuck is Lupe Fiasco?!?!?!
If I had to pick any one Lupe song, I would have to pick Hurt Me Soul. It was the first song I had heard by Lupe and it was a moment of 'Woah, this dude is deep'. After listening to most of his music, I felt that Hurt Me Soul was his deepest song and related most to the life of common people. Hurt Me Soul also seemed to be one of his most intellectual songs, and for me, that's enough to make it my favorite song.
His verse with Kanye on Touch the Sky was so good I had to look him up, which led to Kick, Push. I've been a HUGE fan ever since! BTW I think I found my Mrs. Butterworth....
My favorite song by lupe fiasco is Beautiful Lasers before i heard this song i was having a real hard time dealing with things in my life especially with my self im a very insecure person.and back then i was much worse. i was always lowering myself and unsure if i can really be successful. this was during the time when i attended a precollege course in new york. i majored in illustration for a 4 week program. during the 1st and 2nd week weeks i was very depressed and struggled to keeping myself sane. i was telling myself that my colleagues were better than me and i will never mature as an artist or a person i was very hard on myself. and the harder i was on myself the worse is showed.. i have always loved lupe fiasco i loved food and liquor ( an instant classic) and i love the cool ( my favorite album) i was so excited for lasers. i always checked up on his website and on google to see when it was going to come out, but i wasnt getting any information, so i checked on youtube on the steppin lasers tour and i saw a song called beautiful lasers that he performed. first time i herd that song my jaw dropped in awe, my eyes started to water from hearing his positive uplifting message, especially when he told the story about his stress. i continued to listen to it over and over again while i was watering my eyes out. literally this was the most beautiful lyrical work i have ever herd in my life. i then decided that this was my favorite song of all time and i wanted to be more like lupe and to be positive and optimistic as he is. so i started to spread the word about the message of being a LASER to all my friends and i still am today. whoever who is feeling down or who ever is having a hardtime with life, i start to say Love Always Shines Every time Remember to Smile :) and tell them what it means to be a LASER. To help others and spread love is what a LASER is. The Song and the message is now what i live by and i Thank You Lupe Fiasco.. Thank you for changing my life.
i like words i never said because it teaches me to express my emotions and dont let an issue go untouched. Weather it be politics or expressing your emotions to a crush, it is always good to let your emotions out, it is very reliveing, the song gave me the courage to show my true thoughts and emotions instead of bottling them up like most people do
Well, if I had to pick my favorite Lupe Fiasco song of all time, I would have to say its Gold Watch off of Lupe Fiascos The Cool Album. Im pretty much a fan of all this talented mans music, however this song in particular spoke to me in a way that many of his other songs didnt. Lupe Fiasco addresses many issues and topics in his songs, but there is one topic I say he brings up most often, and in my opinion its the same thing that attracts most of his fan base. Lupe Fiasco has a tendency in a lot of his songs to stress the fact that people shouldnt be afraid to be themselves. In fact he makes it cool to be yourself, and to embrace your own identity. Gold Watch Is just one of the many songs that send that message; the only thing that makes this song different from the others, is that he gives the message more life in this song. The lyrics are fun, they tell his listeners a little about his likes and dislike, and make you not afraid to be proud of your own. The song has swag. But My most coveted thing is a high self-esteem, and a low tolerance for them telling me how to lean. See the most important parts are the ones that are unseen, the wings dont make you fly and the crown dont make you King - line from Gold Watch - Lupe Fiasco
the show goes on because its helped me realize that i have to stay true to me no matter what, let the haters hate, and brush it off your shoulder........no matter how bad life can get, there is always hope, and if you have that hope, than your show can go on too. i also like it because i like how he uses it almost describing how atlantic didnt release lasers and when lupe went into mild depression, but he didnt let any of that keep him down, and hes proved that he is real and is great. Lupe is my favorite musician! the barcode for lasers is even the background of my phone!
My favorite song of all time from Lu is hands down "Hurt Me Soul" from Food & Liquor. Not only does it hold a dear place in my heart because it is an introspective view on hip-hop but because it is, like all of his music, a song with a message. It's like a story to me. I can definitely relate to being turned off by hip-hop's misogyny, braggadocio materialistic cover. Like Lu said "all the world's ills.." He took his personal dislike for hip-hop's negativity and put it on a larger scale to global ills and negativity. When I heard "Hurt Me Soul" it was like falling in love with hip-hop all over again. We still love her and gotta respect her!
American terrorist- food and liquor- the ink of a scholar is worth a thousand times more than the blood of a martyr. The man puts the truth on blast point blank. Lupe^
"The Cool" off of F&L. That song embodies Lu's creativity and ingenuity. How does someone come up with something so creative? Where do you think of this stuff from? Then he made a whole album based off that ONE song? Genius. #Lasers for life.
He Say, She Say is my favorite song by Lupe. Every time I hear it, the song reminds me of my little cousin who passed away. I only spent a week with her and could not really have a connection with her because there was a language barrier between us, and she suffered from blindness due to a premature birth. While spending the week with her and the rest of her family, the only thing that kept me entertained was listening to music. When I was listening to He Say, She Say, I noticed that she was singing the chorus part when you hear Sarah Green saying "leave" and was dancing along. When her mother and father noticed, they were so happy that she was interacting with music very well. For the rest of that night, we had He Say, She Say on repeat, as we smiled. Although she could not see our faces, I'm sure she could tell how joyous her family was, as we all sang with her.
*Superstar* is my choice it was the first sound ever heard from you. and when i hear i feel like i do anything.....go above and beyond
*Superstar* is my choice it was the first sound ever heard from you. and when i hear i feel like i do anything.....go above and beyond
The intro to the *leaked* food and liquor album.... " Reciting Al-Fatiha in the kitchen.....In-deed on this dean in addition to doing dishes" To keep it short and simple, it's one of Lupe's lyrical ability shown to the max, he's mixing rapping, religion, and double-entendres all in one line.... and he made it so undercover that honestly only Muslims would truly understand the line as living a life where you're always reciting Quranic verses is considered performind 'Deeds' .... #POAW
He Say, She Say and Hip-Hop Saved my Life because they're both so meaningful and greatly express the conditions you're described in the food & liquor opening poem.
Dumb It Down. People need to educate themselves, not just eat up what they are told. Information does not equal knowledge. Keep educating em' Lupe.
He Say She Say because till this day it is the only song that was able to bring tears to my eyes. The song is truly food (not liquor) for the soul.
"He say, She say" well written, well expressed, and great true story. It tells the same story from three valid points of view. Also the subject matter is very important to understand because in the Willie Lynch letters one of the points that he tried to drive home to his followers was to pit Father against Son, Son against Father, Mother against Daughter and Daughter against Mother. He figured that if you broke up the family home of the slaves then you would be able prevent future revolt. It's still a principle that is still being promoted today.
Kick Push, or Little Weapon. Both offer a real world view on politics in an entertaining manner. Most listeners of Lupe are highly intellectual, and strive for a better understanding of the world. Furthermore, each song tells a story with their lyrics which make for an incredible listen. I truly appreciate what Lupe has done for the music community by taking what it means to be a musician to another level. Thanks, Lupe.

Your position on immigration reform doesn't fit in a box. You emphasize border security but have spoken out against Arizona's controversial bill. A secure border is the most important thing we need before we can have any kind of comprehensive reform. We have people coming from all over the world with fake documents; it's not just about the Mexican population.
What message do you think your historic election sends?I talked about the issues that mattered to people, no matter who they are: Hispanic, non-Hispanic, older, younger, male or female. But I know I'm paving the path for young girls. While I was on the campaign trail, I met a six-year-old called Susanna [with two n's] Martinez. She had posters of me in her room. I want her to know that regardless of your background, anything is possible, the American dream is alive, and we are all equals.
Your name has been floated as a candidate for vice president in 2012, but why stop there? Will you run for president?No. [Laughs] I haven't even served my term yet! I was elected to serve the people of New Mexico and solve my state's problems. That's what I intend to do.

Reviews for Fluffy Zucchini Quiche
"Made this today, and changed a few things, I used egg beaters with chives added, in the interest of lowering the cholesterol, used finely grated zucchini,squeezed dry, that didn't need pre- cookingOmitted the oil, thus lowering the calorie count, and used low fat cheddar instead of the parmesan, if you use regular half and half instead of the fat free, you don't need the oil,I sprayed the 9inch pie plate with butter Pam, and sprinkled it with corn flake crumbs for a little crunch, hardly any added calories there, it was moist creamy and very delicious, I will absolutley make this again, perhaps using summer squash or broccoli, so quick easy, and delish....."
"this is similar to a recipe that my mom gave me many years ago. In that, it called for bisquick in the same amount as the corn muffin mix. I have always enjoyed it and always get good reviews. In the recipes I use, I have shredded, grated, or finely chopped the zucchini, which cooked faster and may allow you to eliminate the cooking of the zucchini. My recipe also called for a small amount of minced or finely chopped onion. I often make this in the summer, topping it with thinly sliced fresh garden tomatoes, spinkled with oregano and topped with shredded cheese. Pop it back in the oven about 5 mins. or until the cheese melts. Can be a side dish or a light main dish. Yummy."
"This is so good and easy to make! I served as a side with a BBQ dinner. I took two slices for lunch the next day."
"This recipe has become one of my standards! I do find that it bakes better if I've steamed the zucchini first. And it's a great way to use leftover cooked zucchini. I use whatever amount of zucchini I have, which is usually way more than the recipe calls for, and I also add more parm. I bake it in a regular size pie dish and it always comes out perfect. I've used low-fat half and half and evaporated milk, whatever I have, and it's always good!"
"This recipe has become one of my standards! I do find that I like to steam the zucchini first or use leftover cooked zucchini. Also, I add more parm that the recipe calls for."
