The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's Landmark Series designates historic rock and roll landmarks around the United States. To date, 12 sites have been selected that are integral in telling the story of rock and roll's formative moments. As a part of the designation, the Rock Hall hosts panel discussions to illustrate the historic site's particular impact and integrates what was happening socially, politically and historically at the time into classroom teaching for teachers and students.
Austin, Texas
The Rock Hall recognized the Austin City Limits music series at the beginning of the 35th season in the fall of 2009. While ACL was taping various artists and acts for the new season from Them Crooked Vultures to Mos Def, the Rock Hall hosted panel discussions with ACL staff and artists including: Alejandro Escovedo, Martie Maguire and Emily Robison of the Dixie Chicks to discuss the history and evolution of America's best known music television series.
Clear Lake, Iowa
To honor the legacies of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson on the 50th anniversary of the "Day the Music Died" in January 2009, the Rock Hall and the Surf Ballroom and Museum planned a week of evening concerts, symposium panels and other educational programs with special appearances from family and friends including Tommy Allsup, Big Bopper Jr., Carl Bunch, Cousin Brucie, The Crickets, Bob Hale, Maria Elena Holly, Chris Montez, Johnny Preston, Bobby Vee and many more.

Los Angeles, California
In November 2006 in Hollywood, California the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum honored the Whisky A Go-Go. Surviving members of the Doors - Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore, who were resident performers at the club along with the late Jim Morrision - were all present for the ceremony. The evening featured a memorial reading of Jim Morrison's poetry, by Perry Farrell and others. Left: Whisky a Go-Go in the 1970s.
"Since opening in 1964, the Whisky A Go-Go has been one of the world's most prominent and important rock and roll venues. Its stage has served as the launching pad for generations of music legends, including Johnny Rivers, Frank Zappa. Love, the Doors, Buffalo Springfield, Guns N' Roses and Motley Crue."
"There are few buildings in existence today that represent a complete shift in our musical history. As the last concert venue for Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, the Surf is the bedrock of where the sound and attitude of rock and roll changed forever."
"The longest-running music series in American television history, ACL recorded its first program with Willie Nelson in October 1974 at KLRU – TV at the University of Texas. Showcasing roots music, legends and innovative popular music from every genre, ACL has become a music icon and helped build Austin's reputation at the "Live Music Capital of the World."

All branches of Marin County Free Library will be closed on Monday, July 4 for Independence Day.
What is a LAPPAR you say? Well a LAPPAR is a Librarian Against Pawnee Parks and Recreation. Parks and Recreation is a reality show on NBC with Leslie Knope as the focus. On the show, Leslie Knope is the head of the Parks and Rec department. The show main focus is on the Parks and Rec department, but it also highlights the City of Pawnee's government's inner workings. In the midst of the show is a heated rivalry between the Parks department and the city's Public Library. The antagonist of the Parks department is Tammy the Librarian, who is described a crazed sex-starved evil ex-wife of the Parks Director Ron Swanson. First, that in and of itself is grounds for librarians around the world to take offense. The icing on the cake is their out and out hatred and prejudice of libraries in general. Take a look at these quotes:
|This doesn't look like any librarian I know.
"I know Tammy seems scary, but really she's just a manipulative, psychotic, library book pedaling, sex crazed she-demon."
Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: "News flash! We're screwed! We've got a big problem with the library."
Tom Haverford: "Punk-ass book jockies!"
Ann Perkins: "Wait -- why do we hate the library?"
Leslie Knope: "The library is the worst bunch of people assembled in history. They're mean, conniving, rude and extremely well read which makes them very dangerous."
Ron Swanson: "Tammy is a mean person. She's a grade-A bitch. Every time she laughs, an angel dies. Even telemarketers avoid her. Her birth was payback for the sins of man, but you know the worst thing about her?"
Leslie Knope: "She works for the library."
Leslie Knope: "Pawnee's library department is the most diabolical, ruthless bunch of bureaucrats I've ever seen. They're like a biker gang. Only instead of shotguns and crystal meth, they use political savvy and shushing."
Shocked yet? This sort of over the top aversion to libraries is, dare I say, frighteningly close to terrorism. This must be stopped! We need to classify this sort of hatred as bookist, librarist, knowledgist, or something. Give me a break this is in it's infancy. However we label library hatred, we need to mobilize and unite! Want to join the movement and show that libraries are not the enemy? Want to show the the world that you don't really need to know anything to hand out dodge balls and tennis rackets? Then join us at LAPPARS on Facebook and make your library support known. Down with library hate! Don't rec-reate, educate!
I just noted that San Rafael Library has Killer Librarian by Mary Lou Kirwin on order. I personally plan to wear therapeutic shoes and grow my hair out in order to wear it in a bun, in protest!
Parks and Recreation is a COMEDY show, NOT a reality show.
They make JOKES, which are FUNNY.
Are there books at the library about comedy or about taking a joke? What about spelling? (Because "fighteningly" is certainly not a word)
The fact that you are so seriously offended and whining actually makes me side more with the show, not you.
Not everything is black and white - libraries aren't ALL GOOD and television comedy shows aren't ALL BAD.
How are you any better than the people on the show when you say that "you don't have to know anything to hand out dodge balls"?
Might I suggest that you get over yourself and re-direct your energy to showing the world how tolerant and compassionate YOU are, instead of exactly the opposite. That which you focus on grows. If you want other people to be tolerant and compassionate towards librarians, than you should be tolerant and compassionate towards people who aren't. Teach people how to read, and that valuing diversity is a good thing, and that having more than one opinion about something is acceptable.
Parks and Recreation is a reality show? That is awesome.
The "evil library" subplot funny because, c'mon - what kind of monster hates libraries? But it is also used to sneakily critique how America's ideological adherance to individualism contrasts with its use of collectivism as a logistical tool in the social arena. Also, sexy librarians aren't as sexy if they aren't mean.
I don't want to get apathetic about this problem. Leslie Knope ran on a campaign that promised fewer libraries and got elected! This may encourage more individuals to take a anti-library stance. I can't sit idly by and let that happen. If you love the library speak out against this sort of slander.
I have already started:

Pulitzer Prize, History, 2010It is commonly believed that the Great Depression that began in 1929 resulted from a confluence of events beyond any one person's or government's control. In fact, as Liaquat Ahamed reveals, it was the decisions made by a small number of central bankers that were the primary cause of the economic meltdown, the effects of which set the stage for World War II and reverberated for decades.
In Lords of Finance, we meet the neurotic and enigmatic Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, the xenophobic and suspicious Émile Moreau of the Banque de France, the arrogant yet brilliant Hjalmar Schacht of the Reichsbank, and Benjamin Strong of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, whose facade of energy and drive masked a deeply wounded and overburdened man.
After the First World War, these central bankers attempted to reconstruct the world of international finance. Despite their differences, they were united by a common fear - that the greatest threat to capitalism was inflation - and by a common vision that the solution was to turn back the clock and return the world to the gold standard. For a brief period in the mid-1920s, they appeared to have succeeded. The world's currencies were stabilized, and capital began flowing freely across the globe. But beneath the veneer of boomtown prosperity, cracks started to appear in the financial system. The gold standard that all had believed would provide an umbrella of stability proved to be a straitjacket, and the world economy began that terrible downward spiral known as the Great Depression.
As yet another period of economic turmoil makes headlines today, the Great Depression and the year 1929 remain the benchmark for true financial mayhem. Offering a new understanding of the global nature of financial crises, Lords of Finance is a reminder of the enormous impact that the decisions of central bankers can have, of their fallibility, and of the terrible human consequences that can result when they are wrong.
©2009 Liaquat Ahamed; (P)2009 Tantor
"Ahamed cannot have foreseen how timely his book would be.....Lords of Finance is highly readable - enlivened by vivid biographical detail but soundly based on the literature. That it should appear now, as history threatens to repeat itself, compounds its appeal." (Financial Times)
"Erudite, entertaining macroeconomic history of the lead-up to the Great Depression as seen through the careers of the West's principal bankers....Spellbinding, insightful and, perhaps most important, timely." (Kirkus Reviews)
"interesting insight into interwar period!"
longish, but engaging historical narrative! related to you through mini-biographies of the main players of the time. easy to understand too, although due to its approach to the story (economics/finance), you might have to rewind sometimes to get the more technical aspects of his sweeping narrative. but highly recommended if you're looking to learn a thing or two about the Great Depression and some perspective on its connections to our current global economic crisis.
"Extremely Interesting Book"
As has been discussed in prior reviews, this book focuses on the Great Depression and the events leading up to it beginning with the pre World War One period. While any of book of this sort will focus on economics, this one portrays the events through the biographies of the four central bankers of England (Montagu Norman), France (Emile Moreau), US (Benajmin Strong)and Germany (Hjalmar Schact) as well as other individuals who participated in the spectacle (John Maynard Keynes). The author does a great job in sketching portraits of each man. The book is extremely well written and read and merits the acclaim that it has received (Financial Times Award among others). What I found to be extremely interesting is the eiplogue in which the author takes the thesis of the book and tries to compare and contrast it to more recent events (such as the financial crisis in Mexico in the early 1990's followed by the Russian and Emerging Markets fiasco in the late 1990's and even the financial crisis in 2008) and how the modern era central bankers took affirmative action to avoid a replay of the Great Depression.
"Great Narration"
I thought this was a very well researched book, and it gives an interesting picture of what was going on with the global economy, mostly starting with WWI and leading up into the great depression. It's main focus is on the gold standard.
I was really impressed by the narrator of this book - he really understood the material, and was able to do the accents of different characters in the book without making it too obtrusive. It's a long book but I think it could have seemed even longer without a good narrator. It was done very well.
A book lover with varied interests: history, political and technical and economic thrillers, mysteries, crime dramas, futuristic fantasy.
"A Financial Reflection"
This book was very informative as well as enjoyable. It was interesting to see how four major countries (and their financial bankers) brought the world to their financial knees during the Great Depression. I could identify because there are parallels to what is happening today. I was compelled to keep listening. After I read Ben Bernake's comments in Time Magazine regarding the book's merit,I appreciated its value even more. This is an informative account of the characters who played major roles in the Great Depression told within a historical perspective. A great read.
This book is brilliant. It makes its vast scope coherent, explains the complex issues involved clearly, retains detail and personal interest to make the story riveting from both a macro and micro level. The reader has the two most important attributes of a reader-his voice does not grate and HE KNOWS HIS MATERIAL. Can not recommend this book too highly.
A transplanted Englishman, I spend my time on biography, history and military books. I appreciate good English and good narration.
"Turning Hemp into Silk"
I had never heard of this author but this is quite an achievement. To read every minute of 4 central bankers' meetings over several decades must require intense discipline; to turn that into a readable, fascinating and clearly written book is a rare talent. How many of us can find Federal Reserve Bank Chairmen and Governors of the Bank of England remotely attractive characters? The true life stories of these people bring their personalities and characters into colored relief. This book is a treatise on Monetary Economics at the same time.
The reader is good, even if his tendency to linger lovingly on the last syllable can become tiresome during a long session. I'd have given 4 1/2 Stars, reserving the '5 Star' accolade for a book yet to be read!
"A must read if interested in financial history"
This is a great book for understanding the history and workings of markets and central banks. It is not a light listen but if you pay attention, you will gain an understanding of how government central banks can influence modern economies and markets. This book helps to explain how the reactions of the central bankers of the US, Britain, France and Germany to the economic challenges faced at the end of WWI led to financial chaos which made possible the rise of radical elements in Germany. The author does this by going into extensive detail of each of the central bankers. This makes the story much more personable and a bit less esoteric--no small feat when considering the topic.
"an economic "memento mori" - wondrous educational"
Four bankers whom time forgot, each damaged in a unique manner, together reflecting the conventional wisdom of the day and a token smattering of unruly disorder: the book tells the story of the Depression, the interwar period, and the desperate efforts of a small gang of men determined to do well by their countries with what tools economics then made available.
Lords of Finance should be mandatory reading for those bewitched by the wisdom of any era, a humbling testament to celebrity worship of "great, wise old men" - who bumbling, groping, did the best they can in a complex world. The heady economic analysis paints the precise uncertainties with which they grappled, while the human victories and tragedies convey a fair sense of the men doing the grappling.
Schacht, arrogant and disgraced, emerges as a financial wizard from the broom closet to rescue Germany from hyperinflation (or to claim credit for so doing). Strong, plucked from an auspicious morning trade route to work to the heights of power, then crushed. Norman, painted as eccentric by his incapacity for public performance. And Moreau, saddled with a corrupt mentor, striving to buy time for a France no longer capable of challenging the world. Each played his part in the ensemble, and Ahamed makes a good case for their relevance - but this story of humanized economics as lived, mistakes as realized, and mixed foresight and blindness serves today's readers well - not as a warning about any specific failing, but as a humbling exercise - a "memento mori" for modernity.
Highly recommended.
"déjà vu all over again"
In Lords of Finance: The Bankers Who Broke the World, Liaquat Ahamed sets out to explain how the decisions of a a handful of central bankers in the US, England, France, and Germany brought us the Great Depression of 1929. An economist for the World Bank, Ahamed presents a story filled with interesting characters, mishandled events, and analysis easily followed by any reader. Front and center, is the Gold Standard which stabilized currencies, but also prolonged the economic malaise. Circumstances beyond anyone's control propelled the downward economic spiral and magnified the decisions of key bankers making the problems much worse. There is a lot here only applicable and related to the crash of 1929. However, there is also much here which brings a sense of déjà vu to our current economic circumstance. Readers will be encouraged that we have gotten through these times before. Readers may also be reminded that things could be worse. The reading of Stephen Hoye is a plus.
"Very informative and educational book!"
I enjoyed getting to learn about each of the Bankers. About their strengths and weaknesses, but also their egos. The book also explain that if most of the nations involved would have been willing to do things a little differently WWII may have been prevented.

Today, the Church throughout the world celebrates the Feast of the Annunciation. This solemnity marks the moment when God Himself became an unborn child. At that moment He also began redeeming the unborn child — and all of us who once were unborn children. Never can the unborn be considered too small to be significant or to possess rights, for God Himself was that small.
In many countries, today's Feast is observed as a special day honored in celebration of Life, even by decree of the government. At www.priestsforlife.org, you will find special prayers you can use in your homes and Churches as you observe this feast.
Let us all renew our commitment to the lives of the unborn, and to Jesus, whose image is in each one of them.

Reviews for Burnt-Sugar Chiffon Cake
"This cake has almost no taste except for eggs. I really did not like it and would not make it again. Frosting also tasted like butter than anything else."
"This was a horrible cake. There is no taste, the frosting was way too soft. I have my grandmothers burnt sugar cake recipe which is far superior to this one. This recipe went in the garbage. The cake and frosting will soon follow."
"This was a terrible recipe. There is little flavor to the cake, and the frosting was way too soft. My grandmother had a burnt sugar cake recipe that is far superior to this one. This recipe and cake and frosting went in the garbage. I will stick with my grandmothers recipe!"
"Made this yesterday. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it was going to be to make. The cake is incredible. The frosting was very thin and too sweet, even for me. So I added some cream I whipped up. It gave the icing some substance for spreading and took away a little bit of the sweet without changing the incredibly wonderful taste. Excellent recipe."

Gardening Articles: Edibles :: Vegetables
All About Cloches (page 2 of 2)
by Lee Reich
Cloche Considerations
In my garden, I use cloches in many ways. Obviously, they provide great protection for any newly planted seedlings, but they also protect mature plants in fall. My bell-shaped glass cloche offers winter protection to my one sea kale (Crambe maritima), a perennial that is both ornamental and edible but borderline hardy in my garden. Where the climate is too cool to ripen peppers or eggplants, they can bask all season long in a large lantern cloche.
When selecting a cloche, one point to consider is how airtight it is. The less permeable a cloche is, the warmer the trapped air remains on cold nights. On the other hand, airtight cloches demand more attention to prevent overheating and possible death to your plants. I generally opt to forgo a few degrees of cold protection for the freedom of leaving my cloches almost unattended. This means leaving a block that vents an individual cloche in place overnight or leaving the top open.
If you live in snow country and are planning to protect vegetables well into winter, also consider how well your cloches will stand up under the weight of snow. Waxed-paper Hot Kaps will be crushed in a snowstorm, whereas glass or rigid plastic cloches such as the Aqua Dome can withstand an early winter snow.
Consider also the material from which the cloche is made and its durability. Some cloches, such as Hot Kaps, last only one season. Lightweight plastics used to make Wall O' Waters, solar umbrellas, and tomato plant covers may last up to five years with proper care. Rigid polycarbonate plastics used to make the Aqua Dome and lantern cloches should last for many years, especially if the plastic has been treated with ultraviolet light inhibitors and the cloche is stored indoors out of the sun when not in use. Glass is forever -- if it doesn't crack first.
Finally, consider what you'll do with the cloches when they're not in use. If your garage is like mine, it's already overflowing with shovels, flats, rakes, and other garden-related items. You might not want to figure out what to do with a gardenful of glass bell jars. Hot Kaps, on the other hand, get tossed out after only one season. Rigid plastic cloches such as solar bells and Aqua Domes can be stacked. Wall O' Waters collapse when drained, solar umbrellas fold up like an umbrella and tomato plant covers unfold and store flat.

Like Cooke, Stewart delivers both romantic ballads and uptempo material with conviction and panache, and he sings in a warm, soulful rasp. A singer's singer, Stewart seemed made to inhabit the spotlight. The London-born Stewart's long-lived career extends back to 1964, when he cut his first record (the blues standard "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl"). Soon after, he began turning up in mid-Sixties R&B bands: as Long John Baldry's Hoochie Coochie Men, Steampacket and Shotgun Express.

In the streets of New York inspiration comes easy. The streets themselves have become an endless canvas for artists to tag,paste,sticker,stencil,and spray, their way up and down the block.
Shared in this book are a collection of my photos from the New York City streets, showcasing the talent and great lengths a street artist takes in order to leave his or her mark.
Never in my wildest dreams would i ever thought I would become excited when i peer down the city block and spy new scaffolding or construction zones, hoping that it becomes a new breeding ground for new forms of street art. In a way I almost started to develop a heightned sense for hunting out street art like i was on some sort of adventure. At no point can i now walk down a city street and not scan every mailbox,fire hydrant,street sign,alley,stoop,and even the holy grail of them all an abandoned building in search of art.
After seeing beautiful art go up one day and get destroyed the next, I felt the need to share with everyone what I'm fortunate to see everyday living and working in New York City. Hopefully i make it in time to get the shot.
Thanks are in order for mother nature, who on occasion decided that it would be a great day to explore. Lastly a very special thanks goes out to all the street artists who made this book a possibility and continue to inspire me, keep me on my toes, and challenge me to not only find your work but continue to excite me in the process.
After spending years in the Publishing and Animation Industry,the Captain finally set sail bringing you urbanly fresh flavor to his photos and illustrations. Check back soon for new upcoming titles and tales.

Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage
USES: This medication is used to prevent or treat low blood calcium levels in people who do not get enough calcium from their diets. It may be used to treat conditions caused by low calcium levels such as bone loss (osteoporosis), weak bones (osteomalacia/rickets), decreased activity of the parathyroid gland (hypoparathyroidism), and a certain muscle disease (latent tetany). It may also be used in certain patients to make sure they are getting enough calcium (e.g., women who are pregnant, nursing, or postmenopausal, people taking certain medications such as phenytoin, phenobarbital, or prednisone).Calcium plays a very important role in the body. It is necessary for normal functioning of nerves, cells, muscle, and bone. If there is not enough calcium in the blood, then the body will take calcium from bones, thereby weakening bones. Having the right amount of calcium is important for building and keeping strong bones.

A few weeks ago a good friend and fellow cheese monger, Andy Fitzgerrell and I went on a three day vacation to make cheese in Colorado. About an hour and a half into the drive we made a major breakthrough in cheese lore that should be noted by humans.
The revelation we both agree on is this. If aliens ever come down from outer space and inquire about cheese with no reference point and inquire as to what cheese is, the first sample to be put before them should be Landaff. It is the perfect archetype. Right in the middle of the road on texture, flavor and aroma but relentlessly enjoyable.
Landaff is made in New Hampshire, but then transferred to Vermont to be aged by our country's largest, and likely best, large scale professional affinage operation called The Cellars at Jasper Hill. Landaff is basically a Welsh Caerphilly recipe. Think of it as a super creamy soft cheddar with an open texture from curds not fully knit together.
Inside the thick, natural, cave aged rind the texture is halfway between Cheddar and Havarti, but the flavors couldn't be more different nor more exciting. The paste breaks down with a very rich and fatty feel on the palate and the deep flavors of tangy buttermilk and deep browned butter make it an unforgettable cheese.
I have since discussed this with other respected cheese mongers and a consensus is certainly that it is hard to find a better example of what cheese should be. A picture of Landaff should be in the Webster dictionary for the word cheese.
Check it out at Caputo's.

SF, God can only take so many people under his wing at one time. You'll have to wait in line I suppose.
I never did either. I'm too goth too care about your petty social ways
When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.

I didnt learn to tie my shoes till I was like nine. I rarly wore shoes because I was homeschooled (and still am) and when I did I wore sandles or slipons. Ya'know I still dont were shoes much and when I do they are flip flops. I even were them in the middle of winter.
My sister is seven she is learning to spell and typ. I wish she wasnt she thinks she is all that just 'cause she knows how to spell Barbie. She is always saying osuwari(sp?) and baka only because I told her what they ment. Im only eleven so I am no one to talk about kids getting dumber.
you and cl should hook up
? I tend to stay away from boys exept a few who are just freinds.
and have fallen angel canadian babies =o
ok lets get this straightened out. i said felt like yelling. did you all miss that? i was joking around anyway, and you take it seriously even tho i said i was joking. i dont care who is 'cooler' that me either.
get it?
Unlike you I chose to keep a small amout of self respect.
Sasuke92i385209catmeow I did not understand a word.
Why? Everyone thinks I am older then I am. Why?
i assumed you were about 12. i think on the old forum you always used to go on about anti-sex stuff or something(i may be confusing you with someone else) so i'd never imagine you to be much older than you are
ok to stop a flame war, or somthing like that, sorry for anyone who is oversensitive and think i am some sort of brutal insomniac. i understamd most people hate me and my views. so again i'm sorry, and if you hate me, i dont give a f.uck because i don't get hurt feelings easily. and before you say anything dead walrus, READ THIS! i am apologizing. that is very rare. so i hope you can accept the facts that i am unlike all of you, and go back to the way things were. i have to make this a big issue however, or this will continue undoubtedly, and even may do so still. i have nothing against god, or anyone on pd. i hope you can all let go of a grudge if you have any agaisnt me. i'm just apologizing and cutting out the drama, if that's what you want to call it.
i have nothing against God. I have nothing against cl, and i don't have anything against you unless you refuse to accept my apologies. otherwise i hope everything is now fine.
Its not an issue because not many people REALLY care about it. Too much about such a gimmick. :/
I think for the most part it was forgotten even before you apologized...
and why would I get on your back for apologizing?
well i was afraid of that. if i didn't, however, make a super long speech, this thread would be wayy off topic and it would be a complete mess so try to understand.
also answering dead walrus:
it just semed like you would add to it and i dont know why ether. i was making sure ahead of time.
but why would you care if it was off topic? all of the threads are off topic.
I gave up on trying to keep topics on topic after a while and about other stuff I didnt like because there wasnt anything I could do about it.

Post subject: Calibre for ebooks
Last month while Sony was offering a deal I traded in our oldest PRS 505 Reader for credit toward a new PRS T1 Reader. Nothing I noticed before the purchase mentioned that the T1 doesn't have backward compatibility with two older formats supported in all the earlier models of the Reader that I have bought: lrf & rtf. When I loaded my ebooks into the T1 it came up almost 300 ebooks short. I was able to download epub replacements for about half of the ebooks I had in lrf & rtf formats, but many were from sites where that was not possible.
I have seen the free Calibre ebook management software mentioned several times over the years, but hadn't seen a personal need for it. I downloaded & installed a copy and did a little testing and was able to use Calibre to convert all the remaining lrf & rtf ebooks to epub format (over 100 of them in one step). All of these are non-DRM formats. Calibre can't do anything with the many ebooks I have with DRM.
Since I had installed Calibre, I also checked & found that it could clean up metadata (the title & author data the Reader uses) in both epub & pdf files. I was able to fix title & author glitches in over 40 ebooks.
All the ebook files produced by Calibre use full title - full author in the filenames, eliminating the duplicate and obscure filename problems created by the naming systems of several sites.
I add my recommendation to others I've read for Calibre for anyone with numbers of non-DRM ebooks to manage.

I love Calibre.
I put all of my digital books in it. I particulary like the tags feature and how the tags show up as collections on my Sony 650.
I have the automatic metadata feature turned off and only use specific tags for my books. I also like to list the original publised date rather than the date the book was released digitally in the "published" column.
Another great feature is that it keeps series in numerical order on my Sony regardless of what order they were added to the device without having to make the series number part of the title.
I think it is a great program just for it's cataloging and sorting abilities alone, which are simple to use. Then you have its conversion abilities which are very cool. Its GUI isn't the prettiest thing, but I love the fact it's one program that works for beginner users who just want to catalog their books all the way up to the more advanced users.
And if you ever have a question or problem, the folks at MobileRead's Calibre Forum are always there to help.

Well, that looks much easier than the software I use to strip off DRM from my epubs so at least some things are getting better. I had to fiddle around with python and keys and stuff. I believe it's still technically illegal though which is a pain, and also completely nonsensical. If it weren't for being able to strip off DRM, I would have completely given up on ebooks after my horrific experience with mobipocket and Fictionwise. If I buy something, I want to be able to keep it and not have it taken away from me just because there's been a disagreement between the supplier and my eretailer...
As for calibre - I love it love it love it!!! I've got nearly 1000 books and calibre is the only thing that prevents me from going completely crazy. I love also how you can sort the books in any way you like. And how you can pick which cover edition you like. And cut and paste in reviews with each book.

With just two weekends remaining before the start of conference play, all six CHA teams are in action Friday and Saturday against tough opponents. The upstart Robert Morris Colonials and perennial power Mercyhurst Lakers headline the weekend slate with two-game sets against top-10 opponents. Ninth-ranked Mercyhurst travels to Postdam, N.Y. to take on No. 3/3 Clarkson, and Robert Morris, coming off of a sweep of Bemidji State last weekend, hosts No. 7/8 Boston University at 84 Lumber Arena.
Lindenwood (0-5-1) at Bemidji State (1-2-1)
The Lions begin a four-game road stretch this weekend with a two-game series at Bemidji State. Lindenwood went 0-1-1 against the Beavers to open the season. The Lady Lions lost game one by a 3-2 margin after giving up a late goal. The two teams tied the second game by a 1-1 score. Brooke Peden had three points in the series, and earned CHA co-Player of the Week honors for her performance. All three of Lindenwood's goals came on the power play. Nicole Hensley had a .940 save percentage in the series and made 63 saves, earning her a CHA Goalie of the Week award. Bemidji State leads the all-time series 2-0-1. Lindenwood lost a pair of games last weekend to Minnesota State by scores of 7-1 and 3-1. Kendra Broad and Alyssa West had Lindenwood's goals, while Sarah McGall saw her first collegiate action in goal and made 23 of 26 saves in the first game of the series. Kendra Broad leads the team with five points, including one in five of the six games Lindenwood has played this season. Broad is tied for third in the CHA in points and tied for seventh in assists. Broad and Peden are tied for first with two other CHA players with three power-play points, and Jocelyn Slattery is tied for first in the CHA in power-play goals. Peden is third in the CHA in points for a defenseman.
No. 9 Mercyhurst (2-3-0) at No. 3/3 Clarkson (5-0-0)
The nationally-ranked women's hockey team is on the road this weekend to take on third-ranked Clarkson University. The Lakers hold a lifetime record of 7-4-3 against Clarkson, who are undefeated through five games, including a 3-0 combined record against CHA opponents. The teams split last year's series in Erie. The Lakers were shutout in game one, but rebounded the next day to take a 4-3 victory from the Golden Knights. Both contests are set to begin at 3:00 p.m. Mercyhurst enters with an overall record of 2-3-0 after splitting with Providence College last weekend. On Saturday, the Lakers used a full-team effort to pull out a 5-0 win over the Friars. In the second period, the Lakers' special teams struck four times in a span of 9:38 to put the game away. Senior captain Christine Bestland sparked the offense with both short-handed and power-play goals. CHA co-Goalie of the Week junior Amanda Makela picked up her first shutout of the season, and the fourth of her career, after making 31 saves. On Sunday, the Lakers fell 3-2 after allowing three straight goals. Junior Shelby Bram scored in both games, and has contributed six points in five games this season. Bestland's four-point weekend gives her 181 career points, and earned her CHA Player of the Week honors for the second time this season. She tops the CHA leader board in all scoring categories thus far. Bram is second only to Bestland in overall points, and sophomore Jenna Dingeldein is part of a three-way tie with the Lakers' captain for goals scored with four.
Union (2-3-0) at Penn State (1-2-1)
The Nittany Lions welcome Union College (2-3-0) to Hockey Valley this weekend for the inaugural women's hockey games at Pegula Ice Arena, Penn State's $90 million state-of-the-art facility. Penn State enters at 0-7-0 against ECAC teams after dropping two contests at Quinnipiac last weekend, 5-1 and 4-0. They are 0-2-0 all-time against Union. The Nittany Lions received fantastic goaltending performances from the tandem of Nicole Paniccia (48 saves) and Celine Whitlinger (55 saves) for the second straight weekend. Last season, Union stole two close games in Schenectady, winning 2-1 and 1-0 in a weekend series in January. The Dutchwomen have dropped three straight contests after starting the season 2-0. A young Nittany Lions squad looks to continue improving each week. They claim four of the top-eight freshman scorers in the CHA, led by Sarah Nielsen, who has been a point-per-game player so far this season. In all, freshmen and sophomores have tallied 18 of 22 of the Nittany Lions' points this season. After a couple of weekends on the road to open the year, the Nittany Lions are now set for four straight home series, covering eight games and extending into CHA league play. Friday's game against Union is set for 7 p.m., and game two will get underway at 2 p.m. on Saturday.
No. 7/8 Boston University (1-0-1) at Robert Morris (3-1-0)
The Colonials welcome nationally-ranked Boston University to 84 Lumber Arena Friday and Saturday as part of Robert Morris' homecoming weekend. The No. 7 Terriers defeated RMU 3-0 early last season. It was the first meeting between the teams since October 2009, which BU also won, 4-3 in Boston. Last weekend, Robert Morris earned their first sweep of the 2013-14 season, taking two games from Bemidji State in the North Star State… CHA Rookie of the Week Brittany Howard tallied three points in the two games against the Beavers and currently leads the Colonials with five points (2G, 3A) on the season, more than any other CHA rookie and good for third in the league overall. The RMU goaltenders had an impressive weekend, allowing just one goal in the two victories. Junior Courtney Vinet stopped 28 of 29 shots in Friday's 2-1 victory, and then freshman Jessica Dodds earned her first career shutout with 22 saves in a 3-0 win on Saturday, earning co-CHA Goalie of the Week honors. Dodds and Vinet are first and second in the CHA in GAA for qualified goaltenders. Dodds also ranks first in save percentage and winning percentage ... The 3-1-0 mark after four games ties a record for the best four game start in school history. The last team to start their campaign 3-1-0 was the 2011-12 Colonials, who ended that season by winning their first CHA championship.
Colgate (1-3-0) vs. RIT (2-3-0) [home and home]
The Tigers return to action this weekend with a pair of games against Colgate University. On Friday, the two teams will meet at the Bill Gray's Regional Iceplex, on the Campus of Monroe Community College in Rochester, with Colgate serving as the home team. On Saturday, the two teams will meet at Ritter Arena. Both games get underway at 7 p.m. Large crowds are expected for both games, as the annual "Fire on Ice" girl's and women's hockey tournament is in town for the weekend. Colgate won both meetings between the two schools last year, 2-1 in Hamilton, and 3-2 in overtime at Ritter Arena. RIT leads the all-time series between the two schools, 13-4-2. Last weekend, RIT split a weekend series against Vermont to open their home schedule. The Tigers took Friday's contest 6-0 on the strength of two goals from Kourtney Kunichika and Ali Binnington's ninth career shutout. The six goals were the most scored against a non-independent D-I team. Jess Paton and Kolbee McRea lead the team with five points each through five games, making them part of a four-way tie for third place in overall CHA scoring. The RIT power-play is operating at 25.0% for the season, best among CHA teams. Both games against Colgate are set for 7 p.m.
Syracuse (1-3-0) at Providence (2-2-0)
Syracuse will travel to Rhode Island this weekend for two games against Providence College. The Friars are 2-2-0 on the season, including a split with fellow CHA member Mercyhurst. The Orange lost both games of a home-and-home series with No. 3 Clarkson last weekend. Syracuse hung with the Golden Knights in Friday night's game at home in Tennity Ice Pavilion. Although they lost 2-1, goaltender Kallie Billadeau made 39 saves, allowing just two scores in 41 attempts on goal. Nicole Rennault tallied the lone Orange goal of the weekend, her first of the season. SU was unable to net one at Cheel Arena on Saturday night and was shut out by the Golden Knights, 4-0. Billadeau had another 30+ save game, this time making 36 stops on 40 tries on net. Two of Clarkson's goals came on the power play and one was on an empty net. Billadeau maintains a 2.28 GAA and .936 save percentage, placing her among the league leaders of College Hockey America. Providence is coming off of a weekend series with Mercyhurst, in which they were shutout in game one, but scored three straight goals Saturday to salvage the weekend split. This is the first meeting between the teams since October 2010, when the Friars downed the Orange 4-1 in Syracuse.

CoolMax® has been specifically engineered to keep you dry and comfortable through proprietary four-channel fibers developed by DuPont. When the body perspires, CoolMax® moves moisture quickly away from the skin to the outer layer of the fabric. It then dries that moisture faster than any other fabric on the market today.
CoolMax® performance fabrics help regulate your body temperatures to keep you cool.
In tests of athletes wearing garments with CoolMax® vs. garments with nylon, an energy-optimizing effect called "thermo regulation" took place. CoolMax® cooled the body-core temperature by drawing heat-generated moisture away from the skin.
The results? These tests demonstrated that muscles kept at optimum temperature improve performance and delay exhaustion. Wearing garments with CoolMax® reduces the energy required to cool the body core, increasing performance and endurance.*
*Research conducted at the ETH Institute for Biomechanics, Zurich--renowned as a world leader in the science of human development.
What's CoolMax®?
DuPont CoolMax® is a high-performance fabric that can help the athletic performance of the people who wear it. Using DuPont's proprietary Dacron;® fibers, CoolMax® moves sweat away from the body to the outer layer of the fabric, where it dries faster than any other fabric. (In moisture management tests, garments made with CoolMax ® dried almost completely in 30 minutes. Cotton, by comparison, remained wet by nearly 50%.
Sweat saps your strength. Better evaporation means you spend less energy to cool your body, which increases your performance and endurance. And because CoolMax® has better breathability, nothing's more comfortable to wear.

Post subject: the perils of pleasure by julie anne long
LOVED it.
rike's review is basically on point, as were her gripes. the editing was sloppy early on and tossed me from the story momentarily but it's a small thing. on the major plus side, this story is not nearly as predictable as i thought. in fact, there were a few times when i was left mouth agape because the author surprised me.
both hero and heroine are extremely likable and you will end up emotionally invested in their welfare. the romance itself is a slow build. it's like watching someone gathering materials to start a fire. the hero didn't walk around aroused through the whole story and there wasn't alot of 'lust thought'. however, watching the evolution from enemies to wary accomplices to friends to lovers to soulmates...what a wonderful journey it was.
not alot of sex in it (and in fact, the first kiss comes late), but the author renders the intimate scenes beautifully and succinctly. i'm normally the reader who likes the steamy stories where the sex comes early and often. however, the interaction between hero and heroine is such that the story never suffers for lack of sex and in fact, their interactions feel more intimate and moving because of the emphasis on dialogue as opposed to just groping each other.
i definitely recommend it to the readers who enjoy a character-driven story with some very engaging dialogue and surprisingly hot (but few) sex scenes.
never allow someone else to define you!

Yes, but how is the tension? Hero-jealousy? These are key!
i KNEW you were gonna ask that!
tension is there but very subtle. very little if any hero jealousy because he spends much of the book convinced he's in love with someone else.
never allow someone else to define you!

I also LOVED this one!
Great, vividly drawn characters, beautiful prose, fabulous, intelligent dialogue and an unusual set-up--it was right up my alley! Kudos to Julie Anne Long for being able to take a character like Colin (the handsome, reckless, dangerously charming romance rake) and breathe life into him, nimbly avoiding the cliches. And Madeleine was a refreshingly unusual heroine--efficient, pragmatic and enigmatic. The interactions between the two of them were priceless.

Post subject: Very enjoyable indeed
I agree with Nikki and Elle - this is the best Julie Anne Long book I have read - I think actually the only other one I did read was Beauty and the Spy which was a disappointment.
It's a very unusual premise to a story, and in fact, even the execution of the story (pardon the pun, seeing how the hero was about to be hanged in the first chapter) was very unusual. I enjoyed it very much -although I have 2 gripes : firstly, I can't imagine the speed of Colin's conviction (a matter of weeks) - from "crime" to hanging - especially for an aristocrat, with some connections - this is highly unlikely. Even people condemned to die by the monarch are in the Tower of London for months, sometimes years, before their heads are chopped off - as there are appeals, adn wahtnot. Secondly, I agree with Rike that it took too little time for them to realise "this is true love" particularly since Colin is supposed to be in love with someone else until the very end of the book. But I really liked both hero and heroine. What a charmer that Colin is - and the heroine a very good match for him. I wish it was a longer book - say 100 pages more would have developed everything better. But unfortunately, publishers seem to limit authors to 350-odd pages nowadays. I think we readers are losing out on more character and plot development. But overall, a really good read, adn a keeper for me! Am looking forward to the next installment in the Eversea/Redmond stories.

Loved it, too, though I've been a fan of JAL's voice since
The Runaway Duke
. Her prose is just so gorgeous. And I have to say I was not looking forward to this one because I didn't like the idea of Madeline being a mercenary, but JAL proved me wrong. Madeline was an unusual and refreshing heroine and Colin was...sigh, dreamy.

Just finished this one--I give it a B+. A book where I truly liked both hero and heroine is always a winner for me, and Colin and Madeleine were both likeable and had enough about them that made them something other than cardboard cutouts that I wasn't predicting their moves before they made them. Colin was great as a charming rogue who wasn't a jerk, but thoughtless at times. And Madeleine is just my kind of heroine--intelligent, resourceful, not at all naive. And her early rejections of Colin made total sense, unlike many books where you want to smack the heroine for flouncing and spitting epithets at the hero for little reason.
I agree with those who said it would have been better had it been longer. The plotting was better than most historical romances-with-intrigue, in that for the most part things made sense, though there were a few oddities. The relationship between the leads was really fun, but I'd have liked to see more depth and more time after they realised they loved each other. It's often difficult to pull off when one of the leads thinks he should be with someone else, and the transition to realising he wanted Madeleine, not Louisa, felt incomplete to me.
I liked all the side characters, but there were a lot of undeveloped side stories here--I wonder if they will be developed in further books?

Local Thomas Kammeyer was diagnosed w/ Fibrosarcoma, a rare soft tissue cancer, back in January and has already undergone a 14 hour surgery, seven weeks of radiation and now the cancer has spread to his chest and lungs.
Now, he might be the first human to undergo a new clinical trail if the new round of chemo doesn't work out. Obviously, the medical bills will stack up like never before regardless of what beats the cancer.
So, family and friends decided there's nothing left to do, but throw a party.
A fundraiser for Thomas will be held at the Legacy Events Center in Farmington this weekend, and this one's big: Dinner from Texas Roadhouse, silent and live auctions, kids' Christmas corner and live entertainment.
"Our goal for this event is $20,000," says Thomas' wife Jordan. "This non-profit organization (Anything for a Friend) has done four other fundraisers for people with cancer." So far, the Kammeyers have only raised several hundred dollars through small fundraisers and bake sales.
The extra 20K just might be exactly what will turn the course in Thomas' fight against the cancer, so they made sure to stock the auctions with some hot items including and Apple I-Pad, digital cameras, laptops, designer sunglasses, a Blu-ray player, a bike, Jazz tickets and a Jazz jersey signed by Deron Williams.
"The kids' Christmas corner is going to be huge," Jordan says. "We will have Santa Claus there to take pictures with the kids, and we have many crafts for boys and girls. We will also have some ladies dressed as princesses to take pictures with the kids and do their hair and nails."
Santa's workshop will also relocate to the Legacy Events Center for a day, where kids can browse Christmas toys and crafts. Live Christmas music as well.

"Clichéd as it might be, we've always been a good, hard rock and roll band," Angus Young has said of his group, 2003 Hall of Fame inductees AC/DC. More than simply "good," AC/DC has reigned as one of the best-loved and hardest-rocking bands in the world for decades.
In this Gallery Talk clip, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum curatorial director Howard Kramer shares the story behind the iconic schoolboy outfit worn by AC/DC guitarist Angus Young. This outfit – along with other items from AC/DC's lengthy career – is on exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, in the heavy metal section of the Museum's Cities and Sounds exhibit.

ZF-10331: Zend_Dojo_Form_Element_NumberSpinner is not supporting decimal deltas
It is not possible to increment/decrement values in steps less than 1 in a dojo numberspinner.
The setSmallDelta method from Zend_Dojo_Form_Element_NumberSpinner currently takes as parameter an int value for delta, which is causing this mis-behaviour. Hence specifying any decimal value will be casted to int.
Also setting smallDelta to a decimal value in an options array to be used in setOptions method doesn't work (i assume the options is somehow translated to a setSmallDelta call)
Current workaround is to set the dijit parameter explicitly like this: $formelement->setDijitParam('smallDelta', 0.01);
Trivial correction is to change the setSmallDelta parameter type from int to float.
Patch and tests for this issue. Can set small and large deltas to decimal values and min and max values to decimal.
Patches applied to trunk and 1.11 release branch.
Pull request for porting the patch in ZF2 is sent: https://github.com/zendframework/zf2/pull/270

Charleston, South Carolina, is a veritable outdoor ironwork museum, with its pedestrian-friendly streets and a tradition of cast-iron and wrought-iron gates, fences, and balconies that date back to the early 18th century. British styles were the earliest to take hold in the city, but a local style soon evolved and gained national attention, with elements that were influenced by German ironworkers and the neoclassical design that was popular in architecture of the 19th century.
These sterling silver earringseach punctuated by a tiny freshwater pearlreproduce the circa-1814 double gate railing of Charleston's First Scots Presbyterian Church.

ESPN fires Ron Franklin for inappropriate behavior and Jeannine Edwards takes the public scathing. If that seems off to you, then you probably have a conscience and you definitely agree with longtime NBC sideline reporter Andrea Kremer.
Andrea Kremer spoke to USA Today sports television reporter Michael McCarthy recently about the public backlash against Jeannine Edwards after the Ron Franklin firing and she didn't mince words.
"The vitriol that is spewed forth about women, women in sports TV, female sideline reporters is just so out of control," Kremer said.
She later added, "It always boils down to: Why are there women sideline reporters? What do they really do? Inane questions that are so antiquated, so passé. It's not what it's about. The focus should be on the performance of a Jeannine Edwards. The focus should be on: What did Pam Oliver contribute to the telecast? It should be about the analysis a Suzy Kolber brings, not whether Joe Namath's trying to kiss her one day. The focus always gets off the performance and contributions that we bring. I don't understand that. People are assailing Jeannine Edwards. Why?"
I can answer that question. People assail Jeannine Edwards because of the underlying attitude from some that women don't belong in sports.
The most disturbing part about all of this is that we live in an age where this notion of equality and acceptance is falsely touted. But the reality is our deep-seeded beliefs hidden by cowards in chatrooms or message boards reveal that American society is still very divided when it comes to race, gender and class.
People nowadays can reveal their true feelings, for good or bad, without any level of accountability and transparency. For all we know, the people who spew this nastiness could be your pastors, your bosses or even younger kids who are becoming the next generation of hatred.
Call me a feminist, call me a bleeding liberal or left-winger or whatever names you so see fit for writing this. I could care less.
We're still here.

Eye on the Environment
Get green this summer
By David Goldstein 06/27/2013
Now that Ventura County's "May gray" and "June gloom" are burning off, here are five ways to get green during this hot summer:
Cool your home while saving energy
Every time you reach for that air conditioning controller, you are digging into your wallet. Instead of using electricity to cool your home, try these alternatives: 1.) Reduce oven use, or use it only late in the evening, after the sun has gone down. 2.) Protect your house from direct sunlight by planting trees and bushes to create shade. 3.) For harsh, direct sunlight, install awnings or external window shades. 4.) Change your lighting from incandescent to compact fluorescent or LED, and especially avoid halogen lights, which generate lots of heat. 5.) Reduce internal humidity by minimizing use of your clothes dryer. Instead, hang your clothes outside to dry. 6.) You can also reduce your home's humidity by using cooler water for showers.
To find energy-related resources for Ventura County, contact the Ventura County Energy Alliance at 654-3874 or visit its website at www.vcenergy.org.
For more information:
Save gray water
Why waste the water coming out of your clothes washer? Instead, if you follow the right procedures, you can legally and safely use the "gray water" discharge to irrigate flowers, bushes, and even fruit trees around your home.
In three upcoming workshops at the Ventura County Government Center's Hall of Administration (room 311, 800 S. Victoria Ave., Ventura), the Ventura County Building and Safety Division will host "how to" workshops for installation of gray-water systems. These are scheduled for Friday, June 28, from 1 to 3 p.m.; Friday, July 12, from 1 to 3 p.m. (in Spanish); and Friday, Aug. 9, from 1 to 3 p.m.
By following 12 simple rules outlined in the standard plan regulations, you can install a laundry-to-gray-water system without a plumbing permit.
To register, e-mail email@example.com or call (805) 654-2795
More information:
Get on the green home tour
If you live in the Ojai Valley, you can set an example by signing up to be on the Ojai Valley Green Coalition's Green Home and Building Tour. The tour is Saturday, October 26th, 2013 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., but the coalition wants to make contact now with people willing to provide tours of green construction. The coalition's press release requests typically Ojai sites, "Playhouses, meditation sites, or aquaponics greenhouses." They are also seeking businesses to display information at a "Home Show" site.
More information:
www. ojaivalleygreentour.com
Hop on a used bicycle
Did you miss "Bike to Work Month" last month because you don't have a bicycle? New bicycles are expensive, but you can buy a used one on Craigslist, through Pennysaver, at a swap meet, or at a pawn shop and there are less-known ways to get an even better deal.
For example, some public agencies still hold live auctions for seized or lost and unreturnable items. Others, including the Ventura County General Services Agency, auction items through a public surplus website.
More information:
Get a job
Green jobs are touted as the green brick road to environmental and economic sustainability, and the Green Job Expo at Ventura College on June 8 provided leads for two types of green jobs.
The first type of green job is exemplified by Solarsilicon Recycling Services, which held the grand opening of its Ventura factory on June 6 and plans to hire 40 new employees over the next year. The company collects silicon waste discarded by manufacturers of solar panels and computer chips. After separating and purifying this waste, the company sends it back to these industries for reuse. Jobs in the fields of recycling and alternative energy generation are clear winners in the increasingly green economy.
Even if you do not work in a green industry, you could have a second type of green job by coloring a more conventional job green through incorporation of environmentally sustainable decisions into everyday business practices. For example, workers at a restaurant can install low-flow faucets on sinks in the kitchen and low-flow toilets in the restrooms. They can replace incandescent lights with compact fluorescent bulbs. Environmentally and socially concerned restaurant workers often make arrangements for donating usable, but non-salable, food items to organizations such as FOOD Share and also avoid food waste by subscribing to special collection services for food discards, which are brought to compost facilities. Finding any job in today's economy can be difficult, and finding a green job can be even harder, but workers can bring an element of green concern to an existing job if they keep their Eye on the Environment.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 23 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by DrGlass24k SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL This is one of the most comfortable, and well built products made. I love all worldmarket products ,and are all quality and reasonably priced. This piece looks stunning in my dining room, especially against the deep grey walls and clean white trim accents. Gives a high contrast! NOTHING went wrong moving the piece into my home, NOTHING broke off like a wheel, or ripped. October 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by luvsales1234 Great Banquette!! I purchased this banquette in May and had it arrived in one piece. We only had to screw the legs on which took just a few mins. The banquette is gorgeous and such a statement piece. I have received tons of compliments on it and it really elevates the 'posh' look of our dining room. It is comfortable to sit on and has held up well #we've had it 7 months# and sit on it daily for all our meals. I have spilled juice on it a couple of times and was able to wipe it up no problem. Just be sure not to overwipe so you don't remove the color. I highly recommend this banquette! We bought it in charcoal and also bought the Lynda chairs which match nicely #though not an exact color match#. December 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JacRon Comfortable and Roomy We bought this bench when we bought a table. It's quite a change from what we had before and just what we needed - and wanted! It's good quality and the fabric has a nice feel. We're happy with it! December 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by annierose Super soft, firm, and pretty The banquette, which I'd been wanting for some time, was on sale so I snapped it up! I'm so glad I did. It's softer and studier than I expected. The color (quite a bit darker than the website picture, as people mention) is really a great neutral shade that complements my dark walnut wood table and chairs. The piece is lovely and, so far, no problems with the front legs. December 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by RaNdy Better than we expected the little wheels were a great design feature to make it easy to use at the dinning table. The fabric is incredible durable July 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Christine I really love the way it looks! I have a small area that has been very hard to decorate. This gives a look that is beautiful and unique. I can't wait to have my family and friends over! May 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by kkjuju Elegant I bought this product because I have small doorways 24" wide so it is difficult to buy furniture. This fit and the legs were easy to get on. I suggest putting a rug under the wheels to prevent scratching to your wooden floors. The color is not white but a taupe beige. It's very pretty with pillows on it too. February 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by StyleMaven Looks beautiful! My style is eclectic, and I don't like "matchy matchy" furniture. I wanted a piece that looked attractive, was functional, and a bit different from a table with all matching chairs. This piece fits the bill perfectly! I love the color, and the fabric is oh so soft and the seat is very comfortable. My husband is not easily impressed, and even he finds this banquette very comfortable. My only worry is the other reviews reporting caster issues. I plan not to move the seat around, so I hope maybe this will prevent any issues there. Sure love this! So stylish! January 17, 2013

Teen recovering after barracuda shreds arm, chest
Published: Wednesday, July 23, 2014 at 9:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 23, 2014 at 9:01 a.m.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — A teenage boy is recovering after a 5-foot barracuda apparently jumped into his father's boat and slashed his arm and chest.
The incident happened Sunday while 13-year-old Parker King was fishing with his dad, Irwin King.
The teen told The Daytona Beach News-Journal (http://bit.ly/UnGiQ1 ) the barracuda came out of the water "like a torpedo" and left a long, deep gash under his arm and across his chest. He was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center, where he underwent two surgeries to repair the damage. He's now sporting 27 staples and 17 stitches.
Florida Fish and Wildlife biologist Ed Matheson says barracudas have "nasty teeth" that can cause serious damage.
Parker says he won't stop fishing, but he'll never try to catch a barracuda again.

Is it true that all epimorphisms have sections? Or does this depend on the category we are in?

Very much depends on the category.
For example, in the category of all abelian groups, epimorphisms are all surjective on the underlying set. An surjection $A\to B$ has a section if and only if we can write $A$ as $A\cong B\oplus C$ in such a way that the surjection corresponds to projection onto the first coordinate. But, for example, the epimorphism $\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ does not have a section, since $\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z}$ is not the direct sum of two groups of order $2$.
In the category of Rings, consider the epimorphism $\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Q}$.

Rated 5 out of 5 by pdanger great jacket Thiis is a great jacket! I wish that they came in additional colors please consider this! April 8, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Gold Over Powering With Dress I returned the jacket because it did not enhance the look of the Travelsmith dress as shown in the photo. Also the sleeves are a little too long. Definitely too over powering in size small for measurements of 34D bra/36", 29" waist, 35 1/2" hips, 127 lbs. and 5'4" height. The dress, however, is perfect and worn with Travelsmith's Jet knit, long black swearter has the look of a balanced outfit. I brought the Jet Knit sweater last year. Don't know if it's still available. The jacket is somewhat heavy, but folds up easily. Has to be dry cleaned which is a negative because there are so many garments around these days that are attractive and can be thrown into the washing machine. February 18, 2013

La Monnaie ¦ Chamber music ¦ Happy birthday Mr Cage ¦ Intro
Happy birthday Mr Cage
La Monnaie Wind Quintet & Brass Quintet
Born on the 5th of September 1912, today's lunchconcert pays tribute to Jogn Cage. For 4'33", the musicians from the Wind Quintet and Brass Quintet from La Monnaie will sit facing the audience and… not play a single note. They will be faithfully interpreting what is probably John Cage's most famous composition, 4'33", an exploration of silence or, more precisely, of the impossibility of silence: the musicologist Kyle Gann has described the work as an 'act of framing' whose function is to open our ears to all the ambient noises (from muffled conversations to the distant hum of traffic) which, even in a concert hall, are never completely shut out. Initially entitled Silent Prayer, this composition to end all compositions will bring to a logical close a concert quite cleverly constructed as a progression towards ever more abstract music. It begins with Samuel Barber's gently lyrical Summer Music for woodwind quintet, then moves on to Cage, Elliot Carter, and more Cage, namely his Five, for any instruments, in which five musicians (here a brass ensemble) freely decide when to play their parts, thus creating a shifting and contingent polyphony. The rest, as they say, is silence.
