My, were the rumors flying last night! It seemed as though every wrestling newz site had something to say about Punk being on RAW, pictures of him arriving with AJ, both in hoodies, so you couldn't really see it was them, but it was all fact. WNW only posts proven fact that has been substantiated by a number of reliable sources. We caught crap last night for not keeping up with the newz sites posting these pictures, and in the end Richard was right for not bending to rumor. I have to say that I was really hoping the rumors were true, but I wasn't going to believe any of it until I saw Punk with my own two eyes, or Richard texted me to tell me that Punk really was there at RAW.
There's so much I could say about what when down last night on RAW, but it makes the more sense to jump into the show and go through it segment by segment. Woohoo!
RAW Starts
In Ring Segment > A
I will admit I was shocked when Punk's music hit from the start. I thought that if Punk really was there, which I really didn't believe, they should have waited and taunted the fans until late in the night, but then it was Heyman. Of course there was a real possibility that Punk would come out with Heyman, or to shut Heyman up, but Punk dropped the ball and didn't return. I can't say that the WWE has done everything right in this, but they can't take all the blame either. But all this is for a separate article, and there's a number of articles about Punk over on wwenews.net
What we got instead of Punk was Heyman's dulcet tones. I think he's the only person who could have done what he managed to do, and not just because he's one of Punk's closest friends, but because the man it a creative genius. Heyman really worked the fans over, played the face, then flipped it on them. There's little to say about what Heyman said, other than, if you haven't seen it, then go watch it. Heyman pulled off the impossible last night, and did so with style and panache.
Brock on mic was strange for me last night. First off, he sounded better than he has in a long time, and worked wonderfully with the "What?" chants, rather than plowing right through like certain other wrestlers do (Henry). He did a solid job on mic, but it was obvious that they were not his words. Okay, so maybe I'm thinking of Brock as a meathead, but when he said, "There's been many a foe who's tried to conquer The Streak, and all have failed to do so." it didn't at all feel like his words. It felt a bit hoity-toity to be coming out of his mouth.
Ringside Segment > F
I split this off from Heyman's in ring mic work because I thought Heyman deserved the great great, and Brock deserved the failing grade. A few weeks ago when Brock was tossing chairs, monitors, and other things around the ringside area all willy-nilly, I said he looked reckless and dangerous, readers, friends, and other wrestling fans told me I was being a tweak, and worrying too much. That things would be fine, and Brock only looked dangerous and reckless. I hate to be right on things like this, and I really hope everyone is okay. Hopefully now they will clamp down on Brock a bit, and he'll be a bit more careful from here on out.
Tag Team Championship Match > B+
I have to say I have been hoping the Usos would become the TTCs this season, but honestly, I thought they should wait for WrestleMania for this. Maybe they're building for something bigger at WrestleMania, and I'm all for that, if it happens. I just had hoped that they would win with their father backstage to watch them win their first gold together. Actually, I think the belts look more like copper pennies, really big copper pennies. I do think time was becoming short for the New Age Outlaws, and the Usos more than deserve the straps, but after the New Age Outlaws come after them for their rematch, who will there be for the Usos to face? The Real Americans are breaking up, I don't see the New Age Outlaws last much longer on TV, we haven't seen Clay and Sweet T in a while, the Prime Time Players are broken up. Not looking great for the old Tag Division right now.
Winners & new TTCs – Usos (9:29)
Cesaro vs Big E > B-
While Big E didn't let his arms flail around like crazy taking the Cesaro swing this time, but he also didn't protect his neck like he should have. If Big E doesn't start listening to what he's being told backstage, he won't be continuing on the push he has. Being dangerous in the ring, even reckless with his own body, does not look good and won't be getting him far. I hope he shapes up because I think the man is very talented, has great comedic timing, and is something special. Ego check time! ( I will address Cesaro and Swagger in their next segment.)
Winner – Big E via DQ (1:25)
The Shield vs The Wyatts > A-
What a fantastic match! The ring work, the ring psychology, the chemistry, the drama, the character and team development. Their match at Elimination Chamber was a show stealer, and I think this was better in many ways. I have to admit I thought it was great when three separate people went over announce, but none of them actually broke the table for the second time in one night. The start of the match was SICK, and it was almost all Rollins. That man I something special, and he's been showing it more and more lately. In a recent article I kind of ripped on many Superstars for not putting everything into their work, but The Shield and Bray are not Superstars who fall into what I wrote about. Those four really put it all out there every time they're on screen. They give us 200% all the time, and that was proved by them all through this whole match, but especially Rollins in the start of this match. I also have to mention Harper, because he's giving over 100% himself. I hate to say that Rowan doesn't fit into the mix, but he really seems to get lost in there with the rest of them.
The Wyatts did a lovely job of keeping Reigns out of the match in any way that they could. The work was all magnificent, and the drama of Rollins leaving the team in the middle of the match made everything that much more exciting. Reigns looked sick when he finally got into the match, but he also handled the drama with Rollins really well too. Ambrose sold like no one in the company does, and it works so well for him. I just love this match, and will be rewatching it because it was worth the time to really watch it without writing out every move. I just want to soak it all in, roll around in the growing greatness of these Superstars.
Winners – The Wyatts (14:26)
Backstage Segment > C-
I'm so not impressed with Batista. Between his serious lack of cardio, his issues with not being able to get over with the fans – something I don't completely blame on Bryan being so over and all that went down at Royal Rumble. But in this segment Batista said something about Bryan that had me laughing because all I could think about was turning it around and pointing it back at Batista. It's that whole, when you point a finger at someone, there's three pointing back at yourself thing. Okay, so all of what Batista said was to garner heat, but when he said, "I think it's amazing what's passing for a WWE Superstar these days." I think so too, but I'm think about Batista. And since we're going there, ADR.
Mixed Tag Match > C+
I'm loving Emma, and while I understand that she's just working to find her place on WWE TV, I want Paige. I know I need to relax and give it some more time, but knowing how great they work together, I want her on WWE TV too so they can work together! The Divas Division really need some strong wrestlers, and I know that they're a cornerstone of the NXT, I want them on RAW. I'm not a Summer Rae fan. I've not been impressed with her ring work, and the way she holds her legs is just weird. It's like she's a Barbie doll. I let you figure that one out for yourself.
I will admit that I love the sweetness between Santino and Emma. They're adorable together, and their chemistry is fabby. I think they're the perfect couple, for now. I'm still shocked that Santino gets so many Divas, but he does have that little something something.
Winners – Santino & Emma (3:19)
Video > B
I actually really liked Steph's video and the way she talked about Andre. I know they loved each other very much, and that she remembers him fondly. The way she spoke about showing her daughters Pop when he was an announcer, and what Daddy did to become such a huge Superstar. It was sweet, and possibly made sweeter because there's certain things I'm excited to show Sam that meant so much to me as a wrestling fan – that is when she gets back from Disney World with Stacy's parents. Color me jealous, and cold!
Christian vs Sheamus > B-
I have to admit that I feel a little bad for Christian and Sheamus in this match, on the other hand, they really dropped the ball, but in an unexplainable way. All the moves looked solid, and they did put a lot into the match, but it didn't have the excitement, the spark, then indescribable thing that makes some matches so great and others flop. The fans let Christian and Sheamus have it for this match, and I understand that they needed someone to take their ire out on, but it's a bummer that it was two solid wrestlers. On the other hand, this match was not the best. Possibly this match wasn't the best because of the way the fans were acting? Either way, this was a bit of a flop, and hopefully things will get better for them from here. Maybe the stars will align for them? Or maybe they will figure out what was missing and use it next time.
Winner – Sheamus (14:09)
Backstage Segment > B
I actually thought that this segment pushed their feud further, and was much more to the point. I think Christian and Sheamus could have a great feud, if only they could find that something that they're missing. Since writing the last match I haven't figured what that missing thing is, but they're absolutely missing it.
Bellas vs Aksana & Fox > B-
I can't say this was a bad match, and there were a couple of really lovely moves hit in this match. I specifically loved Nikki's one handed flipping snap mare on Aksana. I also thought Nikki's finisher looked that much better than before. The Bellas have both really upped their games, and look so much better all the way around. I just hope they can hold their own when Paige makes her way up to the big leagues.
Winner – Bellas (4:24)
In Ring Segment > A-
Bryan has really learned to hold a huge crowd in the palm of his hand. I loved watching him mess with Steph and really stepping up and getting in Trip's face. I will say it's obvious that the fans don't want Bryan to face Trip at WrestleMania. I, personally, think that they could have a fantastic match at WrestleMania, and would love to see them work together, if there wasn't all of this other stuff going on with Bryan. I hope there's a stip added to the match that Bryan gets his slot in the main event – even though Taker should really be the main event.
I will admit that I worry that they will try to pull a heel turn too soon with Bryan. Right now Bryan is over the way SCSA was over, and when he tried to turn heel it failed miserably. I'm not saying that Bryan is as huge of a star as Austin is, but for the industry right now, Bryan is comparably big.
There's so many directions they could go with Bryan, and I just hope they don't drop the ball with him. After seeing this segment, and the way Bryan is finally stepping up, getting in The Authority's face, I'm hoping they're going to do the right thing by Bryan.
Video > B
Okay, it started with a video, but then went to the RAW Pre-Show panel. I think this has been a great use of Booker T, and I loved seeing Hacksaw as he's a favorite of mine, but it's A-Ry who's been impressing me. He looks great in a suit, handles himself well, and brings a younger opinion to the panel. I really like him in this role. He and Miz are more and more alike as time goes along.
ADR vs Ziggler > B
Well the fans were chanting for Ziggler during the Sheamus vs Christian match, so I'm glad he came out. Even better that he came out in that Shelby. That's a lovely car, and while I wasn't impressed that Aaron Paul was going to be on RAW, I think he handled himself wonderfully. Aaron looked excited to be at Ziggler's side, but it was his mic work on announce that won me over. I thought it was great that Aaron said he played JBL's character, but could never win with him, but loves JBL to death. He was different, fun, and entertaining. It also helped that he wasn't on the show too long, and through every bit of his excitement into that segment.
As to the match, it was nothing to write home about. Hey, it was ADR and he rarely does much more than phone in his matches. Ziggler was fun, but it really was a throwaway match all the way around. A way to get Aaron in front of the fans, push his movie, and show off the snazzy car.
Winner – Ziggler (2:44)
HOF Video > A+
I was hoping that Paul Bearer would be inducted this year. He more than deserves it. Not only was he most unique manager out there, but he helped bring Taker to a whole new level, possibly to something he might not have reached on his own. He introduced Kane, and managed Foley as well as having his own wrestling career, being a registered mortician, and married to the love of his life. I hope Taker and Kane induct him, it would make the most sense to me.
Swagger vs Big E > B
Wow, that was a short match! I wasn't at all surprised that Cesaro got involved with this match, especially after the times Swagger screwed up his matches with Big E. I love that they're splitting up The Real Americans, no matter how hard Zeb is trying to hold them together and making them hug it out. It's more than time that Cesaro gets away from Swagger. Swagger is dead weight holding him back, and the fans are starting to love Cesaro in a huge way. He is so over with the fans who are turning him face themselves. I'm loving that Cesaro is getting the love, because I've been a fan of his for quite a while. I would hope that Cesaro and Swagger blow this off before WrestleMania, but I doubt that will be happening. In Ask WNW he addressed why there isn't a MITB at WrestleMania any longer, and I have to agree with Richard that having a MITB this year would be a great thing for Cesaro, and a solid addition to the PPV. I see big things in Cesaro's future, and it finally seems like things are happening for him.
Winner – Big E via DQ (0:06)
In Ring Segment > B+
I thought Cena handled things quite well in working the Chicago fans, and selling his 'knee injury'. He worked the fans over so they were more on his side than not, rather than mostly hating him as they were from the start of his music. He was really on in this segment, and said a lot. I'm not thrilled that he says change has to go through him, but I think change is going to happen in spite of him.
Bray, as usual was just great. That man can turn a phrase like few others in the company, and plays his character to the fullest. He just gets better and better each week.
Backstage Segment > C
I don't know what that little moment between Orton and Batista, but it wasn't anything great or horrible, it just was. I will say that it left some questions lingering, so I guess that's a good thing.
Stage Segment > C+
I think Lena and Rusev are a strong duo, and he could be a great wrestler, but I don't like the whole 'hate me because I'm foreign and my English isn't great' thing. It worked well for certain wrestlers in the 80s, and even in the 90s, but now it's just lame. I hope they work out, but not impressed with how they're trying to get over.
Video > B-
What a difference a company makes! The last time I saw Hogan on Today, he never mentioned a word about TNA. He didn't promote the company in the least, but this time he pushed the WWE, the WWE Network, and WrestleMania. I have to say that I like this controlled Hogan more than the on the loose Hogan who has no one to run roughshod over him and keeping him from destroying the company he works for.
Bryan vs Batista > B+
This grade is not as much for the actual match as everything that went along with it. Batista didn't look great out there, but he hasn't looked great, and didn't really expect a lot from him. Someone cannot up their cardio to the level he need to be at in only a week. Batista really wasn't prepared for returning to the WWE in many ways.
Bryan looked really solid in the match, but it was the way he kicked Trip in the head from being laid out on the mat that was the best part of it all. Trip keeps denying, and Bryan just keeps coming. Okay, when he was flat on the mat after the pedigree, he really wasn't doing much, but I'm sure he was giggling inside at Steph's own little "YES!" chants. I'm excited to see where they're going with this. Yes, we all expect Trip and Bryan will face off at WrestleMania, but I'm interested in seeing the road they take to get there. It should be a wild ride.
Winner – Bryan via DQ (10:16)
Post RAW
Looking at the wrestlers who I'm loving and annoyed with right now, and there's a lot of ROH there. Bryan, Cesaro and Punk are just the start of what the WWE has brought in from ROH, and there's more in NXT. Cena spoke of a change coming to the WWE, and I sure hope so. There's so much talent in the WWE, and coming up through NXT, that they have everything they need to really bring things back to a level that many of us expect from them. My biggest worry is that fans will be watching the WWE Network so much and see so many of the inadequacies in the WWE right now and stop caring.

Robert L. Henry, 55, convicted of murdering two women in 1987 by first beating them with a hammer and then setting them on fire, was executed by lethal injection on the evening of March 20 and pronounced dead at 6:16 p.m. at Florida State Prison.
Henry worked with his two female victims, Phyllis Harris, 53, and Janet Thermidor, 35, at a fabric store in Deerfield Beach, according to Fox News. In addition to the murders, Henry also robbed his place of employment for a grand total of $1,200.
After beating his victims with a hammer and setting them both on fire, Henry left the two women for dead inside the fabric store. But Thermidor survived just long enough to identify Henry to the police who found her "beaten and burned."
Thermidor died from her injuries shortly after providing a recorded statement to police.
Initially, Henry claimed someone else was responsible for his atrocities, but eventually confessed.
According to police statements and trial records, Henry told Harris after the store closed on Nov. 2, 1987, that some unknown robbers had ordered him to "tie her up and blindfold her."
Henry took Harris to a restroom, tied her to a urinal, then went to the store's office where he hit Thermidor repeatedly on the head with hammer, doused her with a flammable liquid and set her on fire.
Afterwards, Henry returned to the restroom where Harris was tied up and blindfolded, and beat her with a hammer before setting her on fire as well.
"You talk about atrocious, heinous, cruel, vile or wicked. He literally burned them up," Broward County prosecutor Michael Satz told the jury that convicted Henry in 1988. This is a case that nightmares are made of."
Henry's last meal this evening consisted of red beans and rice, pecan pie, ice cream and orange juice, according to a prison spokesperson.

People are running heroics like mad to get badges and so dream shards have remained around the same price for quite some time. But suddenly abyss crystal shatter are going to change all that, in terms of how profitable dream shards are. Since greater cosmic essences and infinite dust are going to become extremely cheap, people will pay more for dream shards to create enchants and enchant vellums. With the rise in item level 232 gear dropping from instances proposed by blizzard, there's a very good chance that people will start enchanting all that gear on their alts.
Dream shards are going to become very valuable... and quite rare in my humble, experienced, and all around incredibly accurate opinion.
Armor vellum III's should also be going up in value, as several people have reminded me through emailed tips. Thanks guys!

Great tip Markco, time to farm Dream Shards. And may I propose that you run Regular instances for Dream Shards too if you don't need Emblems, would be a lot easier.

You forget one thing. Dream Shards can be "produced". Same as dust and essences. If the dream shards pass the 12-13g threshold I can start to produce them whenever I need them. Saronite ore -> saronite bars -> saronite dirk -> voila: cheap dream shard for 9-11g. Or saronite ore -> prospect -> Jade Dagger Pendant -> voila: cheap dream shard. I'm positive that so many of us know this by now. So I bet we will start to make dream shards for sale, as soon as they even try to climb in price. So it would be stupid to stockpile them as long as they are easily produced by at least 2-3 professions (I think leatherworking has a profitable recipe also).

man every time you make a post like this the opposite happens because everyone reacts..
Rymoe said... October 7, 2009 at 1:39 PM
The leatherworking recipes I use for making cheap Dream Shards are Dark Frostscale Leggings (Heavy Borean Leather x 4 plus Crystallized water x 5) or Dark Iceborne Leggings (Heavy Borean Leather x 4 plus Crystallized shadow x 5) just pick and choose depending on how cheap shadow or water are and if borean leather is cheap enough (which is a little bit harder following last patch and drums coming in).
It will be interesting to see whether you are right or not (or maybe you're just trying to sell a load of Dream Shards off on your alts Marco lol)

Marco, initial feedback is good, as someone is buying up lots of Dream Shards on my server. Overnight I sold about 100 for 19g each yielding about a 1/3 profit so not a bad start (about 600g profit). Hopefully I can make this last a while and turn a nice profit daily :)

There's a new enchanting recipe that just came out, hence the sudden buying of dream shards.

Dream shard needs won't spike, they're going to remain constant because people currently farm heroics (and DE the crappy iLevel 200 blues no one ever needs) and that won't change in 3.3.

Dullish medium red. Perfumed aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, smoke, leather and loam; smells deep! Then dense, solid and sweet, with very good vinosity and intensity to its soil-driven flavors of cherry, minerals and spicy underbrush. Plump but with a light touch. Finishes with a broad, fine dusting of tannins and good mineral persistence. This has turned out very well.

Capitol (Aberdeen)
- Theatre ID2319
- Built / Converted1933
- Dates of use
- 1933 - 1996: (the building was dark for some time before the closure was officially announced)
- Current stateExtant
- Current useLicensed premises (Nightclub and bars)
- Address431 Union Street, Aberdeen, Grampian, Scotland
The Capitol is the outstanding intact survivor from the era of the super cinema, and among the first British cinemas built in the moderne style. It was always considered to be Aberdeen's most prestigious cinema with annual pantomime seasons and other regular live shows. It hosted concerts from the 1950s, but, after failing as a rock music venue, then fell into disuse be the late 1990s, except for the former caféhich functioned as a bar. It reopened in 2002 and for a few years operated as a nightclub. The Capitol is currently threatened with substantial demolition with redevelopment schemes approved in 2010 and in 2013. Throughout, Mackenzie's innovative design was heavily influenced by contemporary European cinema and theatre design (such as the Savoy in London). The dignified façe is of classical proportion and is in unadorned dressed granite. It is eight bays wide with three tall windows in the centre, soaring above the entrance canopy to a simple pediment, which originally carried the name in neon letters. Neon was also used to outline the roof line and the façe was floodlit in white, an early use of German-inspired 'Night Architecture' in Britain. The entrance, flanked by shop units, has a V-shaped canopy and doors in mahogany with bold half-circular glasses and stainless steel inlays. Each set closes to form a dramatic 'target' design. The remainder of the structure is faced in plain brick with a pitched slate roof. Within, the building is almost entirely symmetrical and was originally decorated throughout in modish pale blue with silver leaf (reflecting Aberdeen's status as the 'silver city by the sea'). Following protests that it appeared too cold, it was quickly re-decorated in a pink and gold scheme. The outer foyer has elegant full height wood veneered walls and terrazzo flooring with typically enigmatic abstract patterns of mosaic. Through another set of doors is the inner foyer, with its original streamlined confectionery stall in veneer with chrome and etched glass trimmings. Grand staircases with chromed balustrades sweep up to the lofty circle and stalls foyers, which are complete with tinted mirrors and contemporary wall and ceiling light fittings. The powder room in the ladies' toilet is pure Hollywood, with a swirling carpet, bevelled mirrors and fluted make-up tables in black, cream and mint green. Nothing had been radically altered since the 1930s. The auditorium has one balcony with truncated slips fairing into the side walls, which are splayed to the rectangular proscenium. To either side, there are elegant organ and ventilation grilles and tableau panels with stylised foliage. Otherwise, the space is largely unadorned and relies on an extensive scheme of concealed Holophane lighting for its effects, one of the first and best installations of its kind. In 1998, it glowed seductively in orange. The organ is a Compton. The ravages of time and excessive use by drinkers and rock concert patrons have exacted their toll, but the seats and carpets are genuine thirties patterns. This makes the Capitol unique, considering its size and city centre location. It is an outstanding building which deserves a full restoration. Although the stage is of restricted depth and a road behind would preclude its enlargement, the Capitol still has potential as an unaltered, commodious building with good acoustics and sightlines. It could host stand-up comedy and folk or rock concerts. The Capitol is now threatened with substantial demolition. In 2010 approval was granted to demolish the auditorium and construct a seven level hotel, but this scheme did not proceed. On 7 November 2013 a new redevelopment scheme was approved by Aberdeen City Council. This latest scheme will refurbish the Union Street elevation, foyer, staircase and former tea rooms and the historic proscenium arch and organ will be removed and stored for possible reuse elsewhere. The auditorium/ stage will be demolished to make way for a 10 level office tower.

You know you've captured something magical when there's not a dry eye in the house at the end of a recording session. That was the case when Ray Charles finished what turned out to be his final recording, a duet with Elton John for his Album of the Year-nominated Genius Loves Company.
"We set them up three or four feet away from each other, facing each other, and we ran one take that was almost perfect and then one more and that was it. At that moment everyone was in tears," said one of the album's producers, Phil Ramone, who was behind the boards when Charles tracked his final studio song. Ray, who by that point was seriously ill, kissed and hugged everyone in the room, apologized for his lack of energy and was wheeled down the hall. It was the last time most of them would see the singer alive.
John immediately asked Ramone for a copy of the tape as a souvenir, and he, too, burst into tears when he heard the melancholy playback of his 1976 song "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word." It is one of the many songs on the album in which Charles' already world-weary voice seems to take on an added weight.
It was a fitting ending to a nearly yearlong project that Ray undertook with his typical energy and focus and which would serve as a musical epitaph to one of the most eclectic, celebrated careers in modern music history. Charles, who died on June 10 at the age of 73 due to complications from liver disease (see "Ray Charles Dead At 73" ), didn't live to see the album's August release, or to share in the joy of it being the best-selling album of his 50-year career. But he sensed early on that the project had the potential to put him back on the world stage.
After a career of memorable duets, Charles' first all-duets album featured friends and fans — ranging from old pals like B.B. King, John,
|Check out everything we've got on the Grammys.
Willie Nelson and Natalie Cole to Bonnie Raitt, Norah Jones and Diana Krall — and was the brainchild of John Burk, executive vice president of Concord Records.
"I really felt that he was under-recognized for many years and hadn't made a record in a while that had any major impact," said Burk, the album's executive producer. "We wanted to do something that brought attention to what a great artist he is and show how he broke down barriers and influenced so many singers, some of whom don't even realize it."
The project began with a song already in the can, a duet between Charles and Van Morrison, recorded live in June 2003 at the Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Morrison, who was being inducted, said he'd come only if he could sing a song with Charles. Ramone made it happen, but when Charles picked Morrison's well-known hit "Crazy Love," the Irish bard balked at the suggestion. "I said, 'But you've never done it as a duet,' " Ramone recalled. " 'When you do it that way, it takes on another life.' And when they got onstage, Van looked like a little teenager sitting in front of a genius."
The proper sessions for the album began in October 2003 with the recording of the gritty Lowell Fulson blues song "Sinner's Prayer," a musical meeting of the minds between Charles and King. "I walked into the room and thought, 'I've got the genius of soul, the king of the blues and the fifth Beatle in here,' " Burk said of the recording, which also included Billy Preston on keyboards. "I said, 'Why don't you guys just play? And B.B. said, 'Yeah, let's do it like we used to, go head-to-head.' "
The result, a boogie-woogie blues summit, was a perfect example of why in this age of long-distance "collaborations" Burk insisted all the artists record their parts live in the studio with Charles. "Ray had a real way of making them feel at home and connecting with them," Burk said. Ramone said even for the "coolest people in the world," when the time came to sit down across from Charles, whether it was Krall, Raitt or Cole, "they'd all turn into kids when they heard that voice." Ramone described scenes in which artists such as Krall, Raitt and John would show up hours early to go over their parts and calm their nerves before recording with Charles, with Krall pacing back and forth and Raitt "fidgeting and practicing all over the place."
But it was Jones — whom Burk remembered had mentioned Charles' influence in interviews early in her career — who had the quintessential Brother Ray experience. "One of the most emotional moments was when I introduced Ray to Norah," Burk said. "He had heard of her, and I played him some of her stuff, and he said, 'I guess she'll be all right.' The first time they met I brought her up to his office and he was sitting at his upright piano and he starts talking to her about how to approach the song."
Like many of the people involved in the sessions, from Burk to John and the people who wrote the orchestral charts for a handful of tracks, Jones quickly learned that Charles had his own ideas. In this case, they weren't at all what she expected.
"He wanted her to do something different, and she just took to it, and it was amazing to see the teacher and the student side by side, both amazingly gifted, going into this collaboration on a song that was totally different from what she and I were expecting," Burk said. The resulting track is the album-opening cover of "Here We Go Again," a slow-burn country gospel ballad on which both play piano, their silk and sandpaper voices perfectly meshed.
From the easy bouncing pop of "Sweet Potato Pie" with James Taylor, to the jazzy "Fever" with Cole, the gospel burner "Heaven Help Us All" with Gladys Knight, and the sweeping standard "It Was a Very Good Year" with Nelson, Charles stayed engaged and hands-on until the end of the sessions.
"The arranger wrote the charts for the choir part in 'Heaven Help Us,' " Burk said. "And Ray came in and said he had an idea to do it differently and he starts singing all the parts. He sang the alto parts, the soprano parts and he rewrote the chart on the spot. He had a sound in his head before he came in for every session, and if they sang anything else it was not what he wanted."

Though the singer had been in failing health, Ramone said he didn't think Charles knew until near the end of the sessions that Genius might be his final recording. "When you look at the song selection, 'Sinner's,' 'Heaven Help Us,' 'Over the Rainbow,' maybe he was thinking it would be his last statement," Burk said.
And how would the notoriously cantankerous singer feel about the Album of the Year nomination? "He'd be laughing about it," Ramone said. "We thought maybe a pop duo nomination, but not album and record of the year. He'll be looking down, thinking, 'Damn, I made a comeback for the rest of the world to see!' If nothing else, it's guaranteed that a good couple of generations will hear him now."
During the mixing of the album, Burk set up an intercom system so a weakened Charles could sit in his office and hear the mixing and chime in with suggestions. The last time Burk spoke to him, Charles said he was happy with what he heard, adding, "I'm going to rest now."

Led by another strong start by Tsuyoshi Wada, the Iowa Cubs (5-5) recorded the first shutout of the season on Saturday, whitewashing the Memphis Redbirds 5-0 at Auto Zone Park in Memphis.
Wada (2-0) picked up where he left off in his first start on Monday against Nashville when he gave up only one run over 6.2 innings. On Saturday, Wada improved on those numbers. Once again, Wada pitched 6.2 innings but didn't allow a run on the night. Wada didn't allow a runner to reach third base until the seventh inning. Wada finished the evening giving up only four hits, while walking no batters and striking out ten Redbirds.
Iowa's offense was able to break through against Redbirds (6-4) reliever Nick Greenwood in the sixth. Arismendy Alcantara led off the inning with a single to center. Alcantara would later score on an RBI groundout by Josh Vitters, giving Iowa a 1-0 lead.
Iowa extended the lead to 2-0 in the seventh on an RBI single by Brett Jackson, scoring Logan Watkins.
Matt Szczur would break the game open in the ninth for Iowa. After Watkins led off with a single, Eli Whiteside was hit by a pitch from Memphis pitcher Sam Freeman. After a Freeman wild pitch advanced the runners, Szczur singled up the middle, scoring Watkins and Whiteside increasing the lead to 4-0. Szczur would score the final run of the evening on a sacrifice fly by Alcantara.
Marcus Hatley relieved Wada, pitching 1.1 innings and Brian Schlitter, just down from the Chicago Cubs, pitched the ninth in his first appearance for the I-Cubs in 2014.
In his first two starts, Wada has pitched 13.1 innings, allowing only one run (a home run by Eugenio Velez), seven hits and one walk, while striking out 18 batters.
Game three of the series is Sunday at Auto Zone Park.
NOTES: Chris Rusin was called up to Chicago on Saturday. Rusin appeared in the Cubs loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, pitching 5.1 innings in relief, giving up three hits and one run. Rusin has been told he will be returning to Iowa. Taking Rusin's spot on the Iowa roster is Brian Schlitter, who was optioned to Iowa.

College Hockey:Two five-minute penalty kills and two Mersch goals enable Wisconsin to tie Minnesota
MINNEAPOLIS — "Resilient; we talked about that after the game," said Wisconsin coach Mike Eaves. "This group was tonight. Because of that fact, we were able to squeeze out a point."
Every time the Minnesota Golden Gophers seemed to be taking over the game, the Badgers fought back.
"I thought at a couple key points of the game where we scored, they had a couple good shifts after that," said Gophers coach Don Lucia. "They scored the very next shift after we went up 1-0 and they had a good 3-4 minute surge after we went up 2-1 and then they tied it."
"We just seem to keep running into that 50-mile-an-hour headwind and we had that again tonight; we geared down and got it done," said Eaves.
Minnesota outshot the Badgers 43-24 for the game and owned a distinct territorial advantage. They generated numerous quality scoring chances, but their failure to score on the two five-minute majors made the tie feel like a loss.
"We have to find a way to score there; 10 minutes on the power play without a goal is unacceptable, and that is the reason we tied," said Zach Budish.
The Badgers offense was led by Michael Mersch, who tallied both of Wisconsin goals.
"He is playing his best hockey of his college career," said Eaves. "The big man is using that body. He was real strong on his stick. He protected the puck well. He got his fanny to the net. I really think he is skating better."
Erick Haula put Minnesota back up by one 48 seconds into the second period on a power-play goal. Haula picked up the puck in the left corner and skated around the perimeter of the circle looking for a shooting lane. He fired a wrist shot through heavy traffic, beating Peterson low.
"Budish had a nice screen; Zach, that is his best game he has had in a while", said Lucia.
Mersch netted his second of the game on at 5:06 on a no-look backhand pass by Jake McCabe. The Badgers had held the zone and Derek Lee one-timed a a shot that came hard off Wilcox's pad. McCabe chased it down and threw it back toward the net. The puck went right to Mersch, who one-timed the shot on the far weak side.
At 6:38 of the second, Joseph LaBate was called for checking from behind. The Gophers applied intense pressure, but failed to score.
Budish opened the scoring at 3:49 on a one-timer from 25 feet out. Nate Condon worked the puck behind the goal line in the corner and backhanded a pass to Budish while being chased by a defenseman.
Just 26 seconds later, Mersch scored a goal on a defensive zone miscue by the Gophers. Derek Lee chased down a loose puck on the left side wall and found Mersch alone out front.
The same two teams faceoff Saturday night at 8 p.m. at Mariucci Arena.

Arizona Plant Creates Solar Power When Sun Isn't ShiningJanuary 7, 2011 Posted by David Poh
What's one of the biggest hurdles for solar power? The sun just doesnt run on that kind of schedule. Amazingly, however, a new solar power plant slated to go up in the Arizona desert will soon be able to bypass that pesky problem. Abengo Solar Inc. is heading the $2 billion endeavor, but once the plant is up and running, it will be able to provide an additional six hours of electricity each day during periods of time when the sun isnt shining. This will be made possible by storing the heat generated by the sun to create steam that will in turn power turbines.

By Jason Clay
Fresno, Calif. - The Fresno State football team returned to the field on Tuesday, as the Bulldogs went through their first of 15 spring practices with a two-and-a-half hour session on a sunny afternoon for head coach Tim DeRuyter and his team.
DeRuyter promised to bring a fast-paced, up-tempo approach to Fresno State and the team displayed the new style right out of the gates. Fresno State will continue to install and refine its new offensive and defensive schemes leading up to the annual spring game that is being played on March 25 at noon in Bulldog Stadium.
DeRuyter met with the media following Tuesday's practice. Below is the transcript with his thoughts on how the team performed on day one.
First impressions of spring practice
"We were a little bit sloppy , which is to be expected when you are putting in new systems on both sides of the ball. I was really pleased with the effort and attitude on both sides of the ball. We had some guys making plays offensively, had some guys making plays defensively. We got to learn to chase the ball a little bit better on offense and learn the tempo a little bit better on offense, but overall I was very pleased."
What's your evaluation of these guys from what you saw on film to finally seeing them out on the field?
"We won't know until we put the pads on for real on Saturday. Right now we're just running around learning our systems, but I was pleased with some of the plays we were able to make on defense. I was not surprised but pleased by the way that Derek [Carr] played and the way Robbie [Rouse] ran the ball. We you're not tackling, a lot of things look good, and we got a little bit sloppy as practice went on so we got to get in a little bit better shape. To see our guys come together with our brand-new systems, I was really pleased to see how our coaches coached them."
What's the time frame and process to install your new systems?
"We trying to front-load a lot of stuff so these kids might feel like they are trying to take a sip out of a fire hydrant, but that's kind of what we want. We want them to be inundated a little bit and then we'll reteach things. We got a lot of our base offense in today and we got probably half of our base defense in and we're going to put a little bit more of our base in come Thursday. Then by next week we'll have probably a good 80 percent of our playbook in."
What are the goals when it is all said in done for the spring?
"The big thing we want to teach is how we play football on both sides of the ball and in special teams, and that's playing fast, physical and fanatical. Seeing our guys get to the line of scrimmage, get lined up, communicate quickly, and understand what intensity level we've got to play at will be a big thing. We'll get the techniques down, we'll get them to where they are communicating better, that will come in time. Just teaching the system is the most important thing this spring."
What was your first practice like for you?
"It was a little surreal. I was telling some people coming down the ramp, I kind of shook my head and took it in for a second saying `hey, this is finally it.' You got through recruiting and you go through weight workouts, but you finally get on the field to practice, it was an awesome feeling to finally see it all come together."
On the start of spring practice
"It nice to get back to it. We've been away and things have changed a lot, but a new coaching staff, we've all bought in and are ready to go. It's just nice to be back on the field and play Fresno State football again."
Goals and missions for the first week of practice
"First week and first couple of days we're only going to be in helmets so we're going to be focused on hustling around and getting used to the new practice schedule. Then we can start playing fast and getting into the playbook is another big thing too."
Do you feel like you have a clean slate and have to prove yourself again for the new coaching staff?
"What you've done here does give you some headway, but like coach said, everyone's spot is up for grabs. Competition makes everyone get better, so as an older guy I'm excited. I want the young guys to compete for my job and I want to compete to stay on the first team. It will be good for the team I think."
Is there a new feeling of excitement starting with a new coaching staff?
"I think there is definitely a level of excitement around here and everyone is ready to go and excited to get out there and play."
LB Patrick Su'a
What is the team feeling like in the locker room right now with everything brand new?
"I feel that we're more excited and pumped for what the coaches have brought in and the new schemes. I think everybody's hyped to just show what they can do."
What are you trying to accomplish during the first week of practice?
"We got to play physical, we got to play fast and we got to play with a fanatical effort. During the first week we'll put that in, but at the same time we got to make sure we learn the plays that are being taught."
Are you excited about the opportunities to blitz more?
"I'm just juiced about that. That's something that I love doing myself and I've shown it on kickoff and would like to shot it on defense. It's just something I would love to do."
How long do you think it will take you to learn the playbook?
"I'm pretty sure from the way things are going now and the coaches we have and the way they are teaching it, I think we are going to have it down before summer. It's pretty easy the way they teach it."

I have just taken delivery of my first order, and I clean forgot to think about asking for the yarn to be wound into balls. I can of course wind some balls myself (or rather my partner has a wondeful skill in this very area!!), but do other people knit straight from the cone?

I just knit from the cones too! If is a wool or cashmere fiber,I wash my tension swatch and use those measurements. I've never bothered to wash the yarn before knitting with it. I like wet blocking after knitting as it smooths out the tension.

Washing Cashmere 30% 70% merino
Mardi 05 Octobre 2010 23:51:57
I understand that you are suppose to wash the cashmere/merino yarn (30% Cashmere, 70% merino wool) before knitting. What is the proces? I just received mine for the first time today in a cone. Do I unravel it off the cone and then dunk it in water with soap and lay it out as a skein or ball to dry??????? I bought mine to make a regular scarf out of it. Would appreciate any instructions and/or comments as I am new to cashmere and this company. You can email me at email@example.com Thanks!

I too have just taken delivery of my first order and knitted 2 swatches, one straight from the cone, the other I made a small skein, pre-washed and then knitted, on the same size needles. The first 4 inch square shrank to 3inches in length after washing. O.K., we're supposed to wash the swatch before checking tension but this only works if the length of the garment is measured in rows, not in inches. The result of the first after shrinkage was like a machine knit, very fine, but still attractive, I would use this method for some projects but not for all. The second swatch turned out as one would expect from a balled yarn. (Sorry, i don't have a pic to upload) I suggest you experiment with a few swatches, using different needle sizes, and washing before and after knitting, and find what works best for you. Mine was 70% merino/30% cashmere so I expect the shrinkage was much greater than you would get with other yarns. Hope this helps.

Unwinding the yarn horizontally prevents any twist buildup . If you can find a horizontal bar that will fit the cone use that. I have a tablet weaving loom with dowels and am using it for one or 2 color knitting but a paper towel dispenser is good too, provided the cone fits in.

Help with identifying yarn
Mardi 21 Octobre 2008 15:58:19
I've inherited a lg cone of yarn that is only labeled 5/33/2 wool. I'm assuming the "2" refers to the ply but the other numbers are a mystery. I've never knitted with any yarn so fine but since I've got it I may as well jump in and give it a try. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thank you.

I just finished an outrageously beautiful sweater using a strand of the angora/lambswool and a strand of the DK merino held together. When I receive my yarn orders that are cones, I always wind them into skeins on my swift, tie them in several places and wash them. I use Dawn dish soap to wash (This is to ensure all oils are gone) and then my final rinse is with Snuggle fabric softener - not only makes the yarn even softer, it smells yummy. Then hang to dry in front of a fan. Then I have to wind them back into balls - but by then, my yarn is clean, super fluffy, pre-shrunk and smells great. I have found that without washing first, my gauge can be wrong, since the yarn blooms so nicely after it's washed. I enjoy reading all of your tips and seeing the beautiful pictures! Danette

On Saturday, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., won the CPAC straw poll for the second year in a row, garnering 31 percent of the vote. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, finished in a distant second with 11 percent, followed by Dr. Ben Carson.
"I am grateful to all the attendees who stood with me," Paul said after the vote. "Together we will fight for what is right. Thank you and onwards to victory."
According to CPAC officials, 25 candidates were on Saturday's ballot, including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who garnered nine percent of the vote, and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who captured seven percent.
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, and Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., were also on the ballot.
Paul Ryan and Rick Perry both received three percent, while Bobby Jindal, Condoleezza Rice, Mike Huckabee and Sarah Palin each received two percent of the vote.
Roughly 2,000 people participated in the straw poll, Fox News said.
On Friday, Paul wowed the crowd with a speech highlighting liberty while quoting lyrics from Pink Floyd.
Using lyrics from "Wish you were here," Paul said exchanging liberty for security was like exchanging "a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage."
Although he quoted from other historic figures like abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, Twitchy said the Pink Floyd reference was a hit with CPAC attendees.
"I love that Rand Paul quoted Pink Floyd song lyrics in this speech," one person said on Twitter.
"Rand Paul quoting Pink Floyd and pretty much winning my undying respect," added The Blaze's Becket Adams.
"How long before Pink Floyd issues a cease & desist to Rand Paul and/or anyone at CPAC using their music?" another person asked.
The Washington Times said the poll shows a "growing discontent" with the Republican establishment.
According to the Times, 51 percent said they disapprove of the job Republicans are doing on Capitol Hill, a marked difference from last year, when congressional Republicans had a 54 percent approval rating.
That, the Times added, could be why Ryan's support was cut in half from last year.

I was so shocked how filthy Star Bagel was. I took some friends from St. Thomas there for lunch and there was paint peeling, dust hanging from the ceiling vents, water stains everywhere, the floor was disgraceful. And the women's bathroom....well the sink was full of hair and the toilet was nasty....I left quickly. The bread on my sandwich was burnt with a "little" dab of chicken salad and they sent me the wrong soup.
I'll never go back until they clean up the place!
Terrible food and high prices! I can't believe they are still in business. My gyro salad tasted terrible and almost chemically and cost me over $8 for lunch. Highest price in town. I will never return to this place

The worst thing about the almost two years of turmoil that we've experienced in Jefferson County schools is that it's been a continuing distraction from the school district's most important responsibility — to educate the kids who live in this county. Anything that distracts teachers from focusing their energy on giving kids the best possible education is a major flaw that should be resolved as soon as possible.
For our youths in the foothills, summer brings a freedom from school schedules for three brief months — you can read what you WANT to read. I was always excited about the first book of the summer — my choice. I love books. I love the feel of their weight, the smell and the look. To me, they represent a new beginning, hidden knowledge and the best of humanity. This may seem a bit romantic but … so be it — it's summer!
The political news is surprising as two unlikely candidates are soaring in the polls. Not many would expect a self-identified socialist to challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination for president, but U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders is gaining some traction. He trails her in a recent Iowa poll 52 percent to 33 percent. In New Hampshire, it's 56 percent to 24 percent. No, he is not the front-runner, but his strong numbers are very surprising, and Clinton must be looking over her shoulder.
These life events just keep marching on. Our baby turns 21 next week.
Since we moved to Evergreen almost 18 years ago, we've been through a lot of milestones. Two kids started school. Three kids completed elementary school, middle school and high school. Three kids had bat-mitzvahs. I turned 40 … and then 50 … and then more. (Luckily my wife is ageless and avoided these milestones.) We celebrated a silver wedding anniversary. Two kids graduated from college, one cum laude and as a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
El Rancho development not needed
It was with much sadness that I read the report on the proposed massive developments at El Rancho. The comment from the chamber of commerce spokesperson was probably not meant to be sarcastic, but "this is just what Evergreen needs …" seemed much more accurate and valid when heard as such.
Then again, the Courier included only cheerleading statements and supporters in the article without bothering to get local community sentiment.
Rosier, Szabo show little regard for voters' wishes on library
Ramsey Scott's article about the special hearing regarding the library's 2016 budget was genuinely upsetting.
I am a former member of the library Board of Trustees; I worked day and night for the passage of 1A, the 1-mill property-tax increase for the libraries. The citizens spoke: They are willing to pay for better library service.
New school board needs to focus on student achievement, quality of teaching
As a parent of three students in Jefferson County, I am concerned after attending the first meeting with the five new Jeffco school board members (the "clean slate").

Our pen pal over in Paris has more money than Cher, and spends Wednesdays trying out different salons. It is both infuriating and inspiring to hear all about her adventures in Hairdo Heaven. The upside to suffering through her weekly updates is the occasional product box that comes in the mail. She accumulates so many bottles that in an effort to make room for more, she sends us her excess. It was a glorious day when Less is More Lindengloss Conditioner ($35) showed up. Organic, lightweight, and delightful to sniff straight from the bottle, this product is all the incentive we need to keep our superficial friendship alive.

"Pretty Little Liars" is a television show that took fans by storm. The characters and the actresses that play them are amazing. Ashley Benson plays Hanna Marin. She is probably the most popular character across the board. Many of the younger teenage girls look up to Benson as a role model, and she is okay with that. According to a Jan. 27 report from TV Fanatic, Ashley Benson revealed a lot of personal details in the March issue of Cosmopolitan. Benson is usually quite private so this interview is something fans are looking forward to.
Ashley Benson is currently involved in a major story line on "Pretty Little Liars." Caleb just broke up with Hanna, and it looks like she may be headed down a destructive path. In real life Benson reveals she has had family members battle drugs and alcohol, and she is not interested in trying either. Benson is not willing to lose control of her body or put people she loves through the heartache that comes along with substance abuse. Young girls in the industry are often approached for nude photo shoots and publications for magazines. Ashley Benson has made it clear that she is not going to completely nude, ever. She likes lingerie and t-shirts which leave more to the imagination. Benson is not afraid to walk off set if she doesn't agree with something.
"Pretty Little Liars" fans are waiting anxiously for this issue of Cosmopolitan to go on sale. Ashley Benson is a huge part of pop culture among teenagers and she is setting a great example.

WHITEWATER, Wis. - The Huskies traveled to Wisconsin for their final women's tennis event before regionals, the Panther/Warhawk Invitational. Aside from NIU, teams in attendance of this event include UW-Milwaukee, UW-Whitewater, Grand Valley State, Ferris State, UW-Green Bay, and the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Each team began playing on Friday.
The first day of play proved troublesome for the event itself. Rain kept the teams from playing on the outdoor courts at UWW, forcing competitors to play indoors. As such, the event was slowed a bit, resulting in very limited singles play through day one.
Even with the weather problems though, the teams were able to complete doubles play. NIU's doubles team of Nelle Youel (Crystal Lake, Ill./Crystal Lake Central) and Arantza De La Torre (San Luis Potosi, Mexico/Motolinia) finished first in the #1 Doubles flight start the event strong for NIU. They defeated Ksenia Kuzmenko and Jana Luste from NJIT in the final, 8-2. Over in the #2 Doubles flight, Haley Dekkinga and Stephanie McDonald placed third after defeating Erika Willaims and Megan Humphreys, 8-4.
"It was a solid performance," said Head Coach Ryun Ferrell. "The weather was not the greatest, so we needed to be flexible. Match by match, we began to warm up and play better. It was very nice to see. Hopefully we can get some sunshine tomorrow and get ready for some singles."
Singles play will conclude on Saturday. Only a couple singles matches have even happened so far, so Saturday will also have the bulk of singles play. The Huskies will have a short break after this event before the regionals, which start on Wednesday, October 9.
NIU Results Through First Day:
Nelle Youel will play Megan Humphreys (UWW) in first round.
Hayley Dekkinga def. Claudia Negron (UWGB): 6-0, 6-0
Dekkinga will face Jana Luste (NJIT) in second round
Arantza De La Torre def. Amy Upthagrove (UWW): 6-0, 6-1
De la torre's second opponent has yet to advance to the second round
Cristina Alvarez will face Lauren Miketinac (UWGB) in first round
Stephanie McDonald will face Rachel Menos (UWGB) in first round
Youel/de la Torre def. Bayliss/Vitale (UWW): 8-3
Youel/de la Torre def. Meibeu/Zanotta (NJIT): 8-6
Youel/de la Torre def. Kuzmenko/Luste (NJIT): 8-2 in final
Dekkinga/McDonald def. Demchanko/Sell (Ferris): 8-4
Marshall/Straub (UWM) def. Dekkinga/McDonald: 8-5
Dekkinga/McDonald def. Williams/Humphreys (UWW): 8-4 in third place match

There was a flurry of activity following the resurrection of Jesus on that controversial Sunday morning that began a new chapter of redemption, intercession, and salvation. Many scholars determine the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John to be the final chapters of the Old Testament with the Acts of the Apostles the start of the New Covenant.
However of all the people involved with the unfolding events surrounding Jesus' execution, Mary Magdalene's role probably was the most pivotal in ushering in a new era which accentuated the gospel story.
Mary was the woman who had the seven demons purged from her by Jesus' intercession. She became direct supporter of Christ alone with a group of other females that used their finances to provide for Jesus and the 12 disciples. Little is known about Mary Magdalene's private life, and although she received no formal religious training as the other women, Mary appeared convinced that Christ was the promised Messiah.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Magdalene
Mary listened, watched, and experienced the miracles of Christ which solidified her faith even more during her time walking with Jesus. The accusations, arrest, conviction, and execution of Christ must have confused her dreadfully. She probably did not understand what was going on, but she never abandoned Jesus even when it was dangerous to be seen as a supporter of Christ.
While most of Jesus' own disciples hid because of fear, Mary continued to exhibit courage and remained available although everything appeared to be going wrong. Just when it appeared things could not get worse, it did when Mary along with other women went to the tomb of Jesus to finish the burial process.
The grave of Jesus was open and the stone was rolled away. With the body of Jesus gone from the tomb, Mary became distraught at what seemed to be the final indignity. While the other women left, Mary stayed behind and began to weep in frustration. However, Mary would be used in a magnificent way.
When Mary looked back into the sepulcher, she saw two angels in white sitting at the location where Jesus' body was laid. The angels asked why she cried and Mary responded, "because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid Him". She was convinced some mischief was involved with Jesus' missing body.
In an amazing turn of events Mary turned and saw Jesus standing, but she knew not that it was Jesus. Christ asked her, "Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seeketh thou?"
Mary thought the man was a gardener and inquired where he had taken the body of Christ so she could go and retrieve the body. Jesus looked at her and said, "Mary". At that moment in awe Mary responded and said, "Rabboni" which means Master.
There is speculation why Mary did not initially recognize Jesus, from Christ having a different glorified body to Mary still being in shock and not able to identify Jesus. Whatever the explanation, Jesus gave Mary a fascinating comment when He said, "Touch Me not, for I am not yet ascended to My Father, but go to My brethren, and say unto them, I ascent unto My Father, and your Father, and to My God, and your God".
According to Jewish tradition the high priest would go into the Holy of Holies in the Temple to make intercession on behalf of the people. The high priest could not be defiled by another person's touch prior to entering into the presence of God. Christ ascending into the Temple not made with hands signified a similar action. An extraordinary transition was taking place.
Mary Magdalene was entrusted with the first gospel message by Christ after being instructed to go tell the disciples. This awesome responsibility was given to someone that was least qualified than the vast majority of the followers of Christ. God has a habit of using the last person one would think for delivering a message or doing God's task.http://justus.anglican.org/resources/bio/206.html
The resurrection changed everything and demonstrated that God is truly no respecter of persons.

I am new to Linux. I have the server setup (Ubuntu Server 10.04), and a windows domain server with active directory. I would like to allow a certain user groups acccess to the Ubuntu server.
Any ideas where I begin? I checked out samba, but that looks for file / printer sharing, which I don't need.

First, I'm no NAS-pro and I'm no Unix-pro. Second, I read the other RSS-downloader question, but
rsstail is a C-source and
tvrss is a GUI-program. I also checked out NetVibes, but I can't sort by title.
I bought a Zyxel NSA310 and thought it would be a good idea to have an RSS reader/downloader on it. There is a broadcatcher on it, but it doesn't store the RSS-items and I don't need that additional logic where downloads are initiated based on the RSS-items.
It should download the RSS-feeds and store the contents in readable files. When I get home from a trip I want to see all RSS-items of those feeds and not just the latest 30 or something. Since I use PuTTY to connect to my NAS I can't use any GUI-program. As far as the output is concerned I don't know what to look for, simple text would be enough though. To me it makes sense to sort the RSS-items by title and by date.

I have no
cc/gcc or
make. I can't find a package installer neither.
Google found stuff for me coded in Python using
feedreader, but those require
distutils, which I don't have and I don't seem to be able to install that.
The only solution I can think of right now is using
wget in connection with
crontab. However, I'd have to do all the parsing and all in shell-script (since I don't know Python or Perl). That seems inconvenient.
What can I do/try? Any help is appreciated.

I'm getting a blue screen "A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval", just a few seconds after the Windows desktop is loaded. (For reference, this is BugCheck 0x101: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT.)
- My CPU is a Core i7 Extreme 975 and the BIOS is up to date.
- My motherboard is a Gigabyte EX58-UD5.
- My OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 (which I'm using as a Workstation).
For the moment, I disabled one core (out of four) on the BIOS settings and my computer is working well. But I would like to use all the cores available in my CPU, with Windows.
I think it is not related to an hardware problem, because Ubuntu (Live CD) is working on my computer with all cores enabled.
I'm NOT using Hyper-V or any other roles.
