CARLSBAD, Calif. -- He often wears plaid pink slacks -- or maybe green -- just because he thinks it's cool.
He also dons a golf shirt that's a size too small and a rumpled mess of hair that makes it seem like he just rolled out of bed.
And no, he's not your grandfather.
In fact, he's a trendsetter, perhaps the most stylish -- and most copied -- golfer in the world today.
The man's name is Ian Poulter. He just happens to be a six-time worldwide winner, a European Ryder Cup team member and one of the brightest young stars around.
That's right, he's young, as in 29 years old -- not very grandfatherly at all, despite the sprouting image of a Palm Springs retiree upon mention of his duds.
Seriously, are professional golfers supposed to wear pants that look like a Union Jack flag? Or a cow? Well, Poulter does.
Unlike the late Payne Stewart, who stood out from the PGA Tour crowd in plus-fours and a tam o'shanter, Poulter has seen others embrace and emulate his attire. Darren Clarke, Fredrik Jacobson and Charles Howell III have all adopted pieces of Poulter's style.
But the really strange thing about him, even more perplexing than the hairdo and wardrobe that have become his signature, is the fact that none of this seems to define his character.
When Poulter speaks in that thick English accent, he actually sounds ... normal.
"My game is in shape," he said before the start of the Accenture Match Play Championship. "I think it's good enough to go out and win any tournament I play right now. I just do need to be 100 percent focused and concentrate."
Outlandish? Radical? Uh, not quite. Those who watch Poulter on television or run into him on the street might expect to find someone who wants to defy the establishment that is professional golf.
Instead what they find is a man who lets his golf do the talking for him. And it's had a lot to say recently. He followed up a trip to the quarterfinals of last year's Match Play by going one step further this time around. Poulter defeated Jim Furyk, Stuart Appleby, Rory Sabbatini and Nick O'Hern -- all of whom were ranked better than him -- before falling to David Toms in Saturday's semifinal match.
"You can't look too far forward in this game," Poulter said earlier this week. "And even being 2 or 3 up, your mind just flickers quickly, and you want to get the win in as quick as you can, and then you have to concentrate and get back down to work. But the tougher the opponent, obviously the better the concentration is."
Proving himself as a gritty match play competitor has always been one of Poulter's main goals. He'll be a stalwart on the European Ryder Cup team for years to come and is part of a British Invasion of twenty-somethings -- including Paul Casey, Luke Donald, David Howell and Nick Dougherty -- who may conjure thoughts of Faldo and Woosie before their days are done.
This year, Poulter will bring his style to the PGA Tour, planning to play about 20 events on U.S. soil. What should we expect? Plenty more successful efforts, like Poulter had at La Costa.
After all, you can never really count a guy out who sports bracelets that read, "Believe" and "Impossible is Nothing," as Poulter did this week.
Even if he is wearing pink pants.

Hot answers tagged dvd
A nice tool is bchunk (I have used it under linux) which is available in homebrew. $ brew install bchunk ==> Downloading http://he.fi/bchunk/bchunk-1.2.0.tar.gz ######################################################################## 100.0% ==> make /usr/local/Cellar/bchunk/1.2.0: 5 files, 56K, built in 2 seconds Avatars-MBP:~ avatar$ bchunk a.bin a....
First of all, try the "nice" way using the drive utility drutil tray eject If this doesn´t work (probably because the system can´t unmount the volume), the following command will forcefully unmount the Volume with name "untitled" (make sure you´re using the right mountpoint!!): hdiutil detach -force /Volumes/untitled
Handbrake is a great tool for ripping DVDs and otherwise converting video. The legal question is probably beyond the scope of this forum, but if you own the dvd and are only ripping it for your own personal viewing, I wouldn't worry about it.
This might help http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1433 "The Lion Recovery Disk Assistant lets you create Lion Recovery on an external drive that has all of the same capabilities as the built-in Lion Recovery: reinstall Lion, repair the disk using Disk Utility, restore from a Time Machine backup, or browse the web with Safari."
What I believe you can do is to use VLC instead of the built-in DVD Player app to play your DVDs. I've had a similar problem, because DVD Player always wanted me to pick one region. I then discovered that if I play the DVD in VLC it doesn't ask me about any region settings and just plays the movie.
I use HandBrake. It's free and open, and works nicely.
You probably won't like this answer, but as far as I know, there is no legal way to burn those episodes onto a DVD in a way that is playable in your DVD player. The problem is that the iTunes episodes are encrypted with Apple's FairPlay DRM and DVD players do not know how to decrypt them. In order to make the videos playable in a DVD player, you would need ...
There isn't an "official" way but a common and easy method is to rip the DVD with a utility like HandBrake and then drop it in iTunes to sync with your iPhone. The US Supreme Court ruled that nothing in the agreement prevents you from making copies of DVDs. Nothing requires that a DVD be present during playback. So yes, it is legal. source
This is by no means a complete answer but if the DVD you are ripping contains Closed Captioning subtitles then HandBrake gets you this for free. Simply add the subtitles as a track. You'll be able to clearly see what must be burned in and what doesn't have to be by the options that have been greyed out. I actually really like this option and use it ...
You should be able to see the OS version by going to System Preferences > Startup Disk. If it doesn't show in Startup Disk for some reason, you can run the following command in Terminal: defaults read "/Volumes/Mac OS X Install DVD/System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion" ProductVersion If your DVD is not called "Mac OS X Install DVD" then you'll need ...
I would look into using Handbrake, the iLife suite is good for some things, but not this scenario - it will let you create and edit films that are already in a decent file format, or burn them to a DVD, but not take from a DVD with ease (or at all). While it is possible to snip a portion of a DVD, it's not desirable for a number of reasons, mainly file size....
Try with DAEMON Tools Lite for Mac, you can download here: http://www.daemon-tools.cc/products/dtMacLite This software has figured out how to trick the computer to thinking a DVD is mounted and I don't know if you can re-implement it via the command line tool vndevice you mentioned.
The built-in way is to use the split command in the Terminal, which, yes, is Unix-y. Alternatively, .rar files can split a single file into multiple files. You might check out SimplyRAR for this route.
You can rip a full disc as an ISO file or a folder structure. That will give you the exact contents of the disc that you can store on a hard drive (local or networked), but iTunes can't play those types of files. Other programs, such as VLC can play it back, with menus and all. You can rip to this format with RipIt, but there are others out there too. ...
Check the SystemVersion.plist file that is on the Install Media. Within the install media is the file containing the Build number, it is located at /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist The string value for the Key ProductBuildVersion is the information you are looking for. Note: This tip is useful for getting the Build versions on any OS X ...
Not really, you've utilised the quickest, easiest and cheapest route available with doing it with Handbrake. Don't bother trying to find another piece of software that will do the job better, Handbrake is really the best when it comes to ripping and encoding Apple friendly formats. Thanks, hope this helps.
The best, or, most commonly used method for transcoding DVDs and DivX files to an iPod would be Handbrake. Handbrake has presets for almost all current iDevices. I'd start by reading the Handbrake Mac GUI Guide and selecting iPod Touch from the destination presets (image on Stage 2 from the guide) and adjusting select a target bit rate of 700ish for a ...
Had the same experience as the OP. Tried using nrg2iso, tried renaming the file to .iso and also tried the dd command from that MacRumors thread. Nothing worked. However, I then found nrg4iso which worked perfectly! The project has been abandoned since 2007 but it still works.
You can export your movie to a format of your wishes (.avi, .dv, ...) and then you can burn this on a disk with a suitable software suite (Roxio Toast or with the built in software of Lion/Mac OS) EDIT: for free, software, I would recommend you use Burn
Final Cut Pro can do that. So can DVD Studio Pro. There are also some free alternatives, most notable: Aegisub and Jubler.
I would go with DVD Studio Pro. Basically, you create a subtitle clip and position it: Click the textarea in the Inspector, and start typing. You can format the font by bringing up the Fonts window by going to Format > Font > Show Fonts (or pressing Command + T). And that's the basic idea. Pretty simple. You can find a little more detailed article in ...
Using terminal, you can split a file into chunks of the size of your choice. These chunks can be then stitched back together again quite easily. This allows you to spread a large file over a number of CDs/DVDs, or more often floppy discs back in the day when this was more of an issue. In the following example I have an ISO file of approximately 50Mb, that ...
Not exactly through the DVD as you asked, but Apple provides a list will all the build numbers for the Retail installation disks. Once you've run the Installer, you could always go to the Apple Menu () and choose About this Installer, which should provide the build number.
In the past AppleCare has been able to send replacement system discs. I would assume the same holds true today but my only doubt stems from the age of the Mac, since it may be unsupported by AppleCare. It's definitely worth a call though... Call 1-800-APLCARE (Or find your Apple support number HERE if you're outside of the US/Canada) Give them your ...
Use Burn. It will convert your MP4 into a MPG and write it to the DVD as playable. (And yes, you can make the DVD loop automatically. See below.)
Single-track (.iso) vs. multiple-track (.img) Any single-track CD-ROM, DVD or Blu-ray disc can be archived in ISO format as a true digital copy of the original. But ISO files have limitations. For example, a CD can have multiple tracks, which can contain computer data, audio, or video. File systems such as ISO 9660 are stored inside one of ...
If you can bring the image into Disk Utility, use the convert option. Choose CD/DVD master, it will save as a .cdo. Rename to .iso.
You could convert the mkv file first with something like Handbrake or iSkysoft's iMedia Converter, then burn it to DVD. Handbrake and iMedia Converter will give you more options for converting than Toast.
Actually, it's pretty straight forward.

SDCC: Marvel's "Doctor Strange" Combats "Death and Pain" in New Trailer
Comic Books, Film
Hello and welcome to Shelf Porn! Today Corey shares his "nerd cave" with us, where he houses his comics, artwork, an ungodly number of action figures and more — including a shelf that would make Squirrel Girl proud.
If you'd like to share your collection with us, you can find details at the end of this post.
Now let's hear from Corey …
I have been a collector of comics, action figures, and associated stuff since I was a kid. At the age of 38 now, I finally have a place in my home that I can call my "Nerd Cave." In the photos below you will see several shelves which hold the entirety of my action figure collection. I have included 3 photos of each shelf so that you can get a better look at the figures themselves. The two main shelves were completed this past year when I repainted some old shelves that were in my house. In order to control the dust which would eventually settle on the shelves, I bought some large sheets of Lexan plastic, some piano hinges, and some magnets to create swinging see-through doors.
My first childhood collection consisted of a large number of Transformers. During college I had to sell off many of these figures to pay some bills, but I managed to keep a few (they can be seen on my current Transformers shelf). Since then, I started collecting McFarlane figures which has recently evolved into collecting DC Comics New 52 figures. I have shelves dedicated to the following categories: Batman, the Muppets, DC New 52, Image comics, McFarlane's monsters, Green Lantern, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Spawn, Transformers, and McFarlane's Dragons. I also have various other figures on 2 other shelving units in the room (and yes, there is a shelf dedicated to squirrels – I have a little obsession with them which has evolved into 2 convention sketchbooks in which I have comic artists mash-up squirrels and their favorite hero/villain). I have also included several pictures of some of the comic art I own which hangs on my walls. The only thing that is only hinted at in the pictures is my 40 boxes of comic books which line one wall in my room and occupy the closet.
I hope everyone enjoys these pictures.
nice collection love the art work and the display shelves.
Awesome collection, alternate reality me!
Love the Muppets shelf and of course the Transformers shelf. You know you're a serious collector when you have Wheelie.
Also, nice trombone. Do you play?
Cool Maxx figure and dragon section
Oh, that Muppet shelf…great stuff!!!
Great collection, I love the muppets. Will start looking out for those at events. I got my son an Optimus prime and he thinks it's great. Fantastic collection, especially the muppets and transformers. I liked the green lantern corps too. The display shelves were an act of genius, and should be copied the land over!
Well that headline was misleading!
I was expecting TONS of awesome squirrels, and it's just this one small shelf with like 9 squirrels on it.
Would love to see the squirrel sketchbooks too, should be interesting!
Other than that nitpick, great collection!
I love the frames but im don't think the toys in general are of good taste.
Great collection!
Who are the three non-Bone figures (blue guy with green wings, red and green guy, and brown guy) on the left of the Bone shelf?
Great display. I like the shells too.
Man, what a setup! Pinky and the Brain figures?! Where'd you find them? So jealous!
Fantastic collection! Love the down-lights you've installed above the Lantern Corps and also that you keep as many figures as you can behind glass… really does make a difference to dusting, doesn't it?
They made Bone action figures? I never knew that!
Corey need's one of mine on his wall, I think. http://squareup.com/market/isaac-brynjegard-bialik
I love seeing every ones different collections. Now here's a serious question.
I have yet to see anyone's stack of long boxes. Is there not a attractive way to display these stalwarts of comic book collecting. does everyone just try to hide these out of plain sight.
Thanks for the kind words everyone! I'm glad you enjoyed my collection!
Great collection, like the setup
Corey Blake – yes, I used to play trombone – haven't plan in about 20 years, though
Iam Fear – you can see my Squirrel Sketchbooks in my photo albums on my Facebook page – http://www.facebook.com/Corey Fuhrer
Jenjen4280 – those are Spawn Animated figures
Shawn – those Pinky and the Brain figures are from about 15 years ago – I have no idea where I found them at.
Thanks again everyone for the great comments!
excellent collection!
just loving those shelves with the doors on them!
Also that Kyrra Alien Jungle Girl print is awesome!!
Very nice I gotta start getting me some action toys figures . Nice art work to .

I'm looking for a plugin/component that will help me service both sellers and buyers on a site.
Essentially we'll be selling digital goods, users in some instances will be both sellers and buyers who would deposit money into their accounts and purchases will be deducted from their balances. Sales would add to their balances and those will be paid in full either weekly or monthly.
At least that's the idea. Of course I tried a Membership Plugin but there's no way that it would suffice for these needs.
Any advice appreciated. Willing to pay.
Thank you,

My girlfriend (soon to be fiance) and I are in the beginning stages of looking for a house. We have mostly looked at houses in the Oakley and Pleasant Ridge areas. We are also looking in the Hyde Park area if we can find something that we can afford.
My question is are there any other areas/suburbs of Cincinnati we should check out? We want to stay on the east side and don't really want to go any farther north than, say, Kenwood. We want to try and stay a quick drive down 71 from downtown since I work downtown and she works over in Covington.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It illumines how Poe's aesthetic philosophies were aligned with those that undergird many of the contemporary mourning objects of the day, how his otherwise Gothic and macabre literature nevertheless served rather conventional and even recuperative ends by exposing the necessity of and inviting readers to participate in culturally sanctioned acts of mourning, and how he sought to confirm the harmony between his work and more conventional "consolation" or mourning literature by actively seeking to bring that work (and the "self" that produced it) visibly before his readership in a medium that this culture held was a reliable indicator of the nature and intent of both that work and its producer - namely his own personal script. In its latter three chapters, this dissertation illuminates Whitman's own extensive use of mourning and memorial conventions in his work, disclosing the way his 1855 Leaves of Grass relied, in both its literary and physical construction, upon the conventions of mourning and memorial literature, detailing the way his 1865 book of Civil War poetry Drum-Taps sought to unite a national body politic by creating a poetic and material text capable of allowing a grieving public readership to reconnect with and successfully mourn their dead, and how his 1876 Two Rivulets, overtly conceived of as a memorial volume, made use of the conventions associated with mourning and memorializing to bring readers to a more democratic understanding of "self" that Whitman believed would transform America into the democratic utopia it was destined to become. In revealing the way in which these authors' works reflect and reflect upon this culture, its ideologies, rituals, and practices, the dissertation also illumines an otherwise critically underexplored connection between these two writers. It details the influence of Poe's work on Whitman's poetic project, and borrows from Whitman's critical response to Poe in order to recast our understanding of Poe's literature in the manner detailed above. Thus, this dissertation offers new interpretations of some of the period's most canonical literature, alters our thinking about the relationship of these authors to each other and to nineteenth-century sentimental culture, and, finally, exposes a curious interdependence between Gothic and more transcendental literature that has implications not only for reading the work of Whitman and Poe, but for interpreting these literatures more generally.

I like your new plugin very much. It is possible to add the shortcode-feature. I want tu use it not only as a widget, but within a post! Thanks a lot, Peter
Hi Peter,
Sorry for my slow response. Yes, that seems plausible. I'll add it to the wish list. Thanks for using the plugin!
I'd love to see this feature too.
Is there a function to call in order to include the content of the widget in a template? Thanks!
I realized the plugin shows private posts, even if you're not logged in your blog. They should be hidden.
Good catch, Richard. I've updated the plugin to not include Private posts.
Great! Thank you!
Peter & Richard,
I spent some time thinking through adding shortcode support over the weekend (as well as publishing a new version of the plugin) and am not sure if it really makes sense to add that to the existing plugin as the plugin is very widget-specific. It almost seems like a completely separate plugin (functionality-wise).
But, I haven't forgotten about the request. I'll let you know how things proceed.
Hi Dave!
It's your choice and it will be welcome as you decide to do it. :)
Thank you!
Hello, here is a work-a-round for shortcodes. To do this you will need a custom_functions.php file:
1.) Create a widgitized sidebar that is called with a shortcode
Place in your custom_functions.php file:
//Registering the sidebar1
function ilc_register_sidebars1(){
'name' => 'Sidecode1',
'description' => 'Widgets in this area will be shown using [shortbar1]',
'before_widget' => '
',
'after_widget' => '
',
'before_title' => '
',
'after_title' => '
'
add_action( 'init', 'ilc_register_sidebars1');
add_shortcode( 'shortbar1', 'shortbar_sc1' );
//Creating the shortcode output
function shortbar_sc1( $atts ) {
$html = ob_get_contents();
return $html;
Then, add to a page or post with [shortbar1] now
go to widget page and add post widget to the sidecode1 sidebar.
You will probably need a plugin like widget logic or Widget Logic Visual or display widgets so you can use the [shortbar1] more then once.
If you need more then one sidebar change all the 1's to 2's
except do NOT change these

I hope this is helpful.
Also, I just found this plugin that does the same thing, I have not used it but here is the link:

Track tech
A popular circuit thanks to its undulating layout, combination of mundane and menacing corners and ultra-quick lap speed, Noida is a demanding circuit for tyres owing to the high ambient temperature and low grip, expected of such a new venue.
A smooth circuit means the teams can run lower ride heights, with less danger of the car bottoming out unless their drivers get particularly well-acquainted with the kerbs. With two long straights, both of which will see DRS in use during the race, teams will look to maximise top-end speed and work on balance and driveability for the slower, technical section in the middle of the lap.
Turn 10 poses an interesting challenge, a quadruple-apex right-hander that is reminiscent of the awesome Turn 8 in Istanbul. It is taken at an average speed of around 130mph and the left front tyre takes a real beating as the G forces load up during the time it takes to traverse the corner.
Race strategy highlights from last year
Last year's race was the first in which the teams were not at all concerned about tyre wear and were able to focus on pure pace for the full 60 laps.
Two factors combined to produce this – by the latter stages of the season teams were getting to grips with the wear rates on the Pirelli tyres and knew far better how to manage them, but the main reason was that the choice of hard and soft compounds was just too cautious and as a result virtually the whole field opted to stop just once.
In the top ten those solitary stops came between laps 25 and 33, although Romain Grosjean went slightly longer to lap 36 having started on the hard tyres and switching to softs for the final 24 laps, but there were limited opportunities for this alternate strategy to pay off and Grosjean only made up two places while Nico Hulkenberg started one place behind and finished one place ahead having taken the same soft-hard approach as the seven cars ahead of him.
Out front, zero concerns on tyres let Vettel storm away from pole and take control of the race. Webber ran second with Alonso third but neither could match Vettel's pace, dropping away to over 11 seconds behind when the sole stops came around.
Afterwards Vettel managed his pace accordingly, the gaps reduced slightly and when Alonso passed Webber for second, Vettel made sure that 9.4 seconds was as close as the Ferrari driver got.
What to look out for in 2013
Last year's race was uneventful in terms of on-track action, with Pirelli bringing what turned out to be a far more conservative choice of tyre compounds than was necessary.
They look to be avoiding that mistake this year with the soft and medium tyres guaranteeing a significant step in performance between the two, and chances of a two or three-stop race as we saw in Japan which should create some interest.
It looks as though that interest will not take place up front however – Vettel is the form man in India having won both previous races from pole position and looks likely to make it three in a row which would confirm his fourth straight World Championship.
The battle to be best of the rest looks to be played out between Lotus, Mercedes and Ferrari with all three teams locked in a battle for second place in the Constructor's Championship – just 33 points separate the three teams and its Lotus who are on the up, so look out for another strong performance from the Enstone team and Romain Grosjean in particular, who is driving like is a man reborn of late.
Who has the best record in India?
Sebastian Vettel has won both Indian Grands Prix held to date, winning from pole on both occasions. Fernando Alonso has shared the podium with him on both occasions, finishing as runner-up in 2012 and taking third spot in the inaugural 2011 race.
Jenson Button (second in 2011) and Mark Webber (third in 2012) are the only other drivers to have featured on the Noida podium. Of the non-podium finishers, Lewis Hamilton has the next-best record with an average finish of 5.5, consisting of P7 in 2011 and P4 last year.
How important is pole position?
This race has only ever been won from pole but given that this is only the third time the Indian Grand Prix has been held, it is wise not to draw too many conclusions from this.
What we can say about the 100% record is that the Indian Grand Prix is always held around the time of year that Red Bull start to edge away from the pack – in 2011 they were enjoying a dominant season and Vettel won comfortably from Jenson Button's McLaren, while in 2012 it was Fernando Alonso who took the fight to Red Bull but on neither occasion could either driver get within striking distance of the Red Bull.
The Noida track appears to play perfectly to Red Bull's strengths, and the chances are high that the 100% streak will continue this weekend.
Tyre wear: 7/10
Pirelli chose the hard and soft tyres last year, but the decision to bring the soft and mediums this time should move away from the regulation one-stoppers that blighted the action in 2012.
Downforce: 6/10
Although the track has a couple of long straights and two DRS zones, the winding middle sector of the lap requires higher downforce to squash the car into the track at high speed. There's plenty of direction changes here that will catch out a car with a less than optimal setup.
Average speed: 7/10
The hairpins at Turns 3 and 4 are the only truly 'slow' corners on the track – a 1.2km back straight and fast middle sector means Noida registers an average lap speed towards the top end of the scale.
Track difficulty: 7/10
The first part of the lap – two straights, a flat-out left hander and two corners – are bread and butter for an F1 driver, but the middle sector of the lap is what sorts the men from the boys. Between Turns 5 and 4 the track dips, turns, climbs and changes direction seven times with the long four-apex right-hander at Turn 10 a particularly fiendish challenge.
Overtaking: 3/10
Two DRS zones should in theory provide passing chances but last year showed the cars were struggling to stay close enough to pull off a move.
Spectacle: 6/10
India deserves a place on the F1 calendar but it has not made the cut for 2014. This is no reflection on the circuit but a message to the Indians about over-complicated customs regulations that make getting into the country a real nightmare.
On track the circuit is as good as any, but it has yet to serve up a truly compelling race as Red Bull have dominated both races held here so far.
Driver's eye view: Mark Webber, Red Bull
"It's an extremely unique country for lots of different reasons, culturally there's lots going on and you've got some pretty spectacular cities, busy cities. I've tried some of the local food and it's really tasty, and obviously spicy, but I don't mind that!
"The track is good. I think they've done a good job with the circuit, it's a place where you can really put a Formula One car on the limit and it's quick.
"It's a very demanding track for the car and driver. It's probably very similar to the old Turkey circuit, but the middle sector is very similar to Silverstone - it's very, very fast, but has some undulations as well. The undulations are quite good and quite cute; they've put them in some challenging areas for us."
Paul Hembery, Pirelli Motorsport Director
"For India we've nominated the P Zero White medium and P Zero Yellow soft tyres, which we think will be the best combination for the Buddh circuit. For the last two years running we've actually gone for the hard and soft compounds but this year we've gone for a softer choice.
"As a result, just like the last race in Japan, we're not expecting to see a particularly big variation in lap times between the two compounds. Consequently the strategy made a very big difference and it will be interesting to see if this is the case once more.
"We only had one pit stop last year, but this year we would expect two - which also provides the drivers and teams with more opportunities. With varying elevations and a wide variety of corners India provides the tyres with quite a test, as there are forces coming from all directions, so tyre management will once again prove to be important."

At the beginning of the episode, when Brennan gives her lecture, she talks about how J. Edgar Hoover made an alliance with the Jeffersonian, and how the face they put together turned out looking like a monster. On the X-Files episode "Shapes", J. Edgar Hoover's first X-File is mentioned, and the same face Brennan showed in the lecture is used.
The episode reveals that Hodgins is rich, and his family is the largest donor to the Jeffersonian; and Brennan's brother's name is Jared.
Dr. Brennan said she was at Waco, but the Waco Massacre took place in 1993. It seems unlikely that she would have been identifying bones when she was sixteen or seventeen.
Brennan says her grandfather got her out of foster care, but if her parents were in hiding from the FBI, how did her grandfather find her under her new alias? Also, in a later episode during a talk between Brennan and her father, it is revealed that she and Russ were told they did not have grandparents.
Goof: At the beginning of the episode, when Booth and Brennan get to her car, Brennan pushes a button to put the top down, but in the next shot, the top is already down.
Goof: When Angela talks to Hodgins about his anger management technique (the rubber band on his wrist), an extra walks up right behind her and should have passed the two of them. In the next shot, which is over her shoulder, the extra has disappeared.
Goof: When the mall security camera footage is being reviewed, Angela apologizes that the "max resolution is 640x480 pixels per square inch." However, 640x480 pixels per square inch is an excellent resolution, and better than a photograph. Since Angela later states that the picture will degrade when she zooms in on it, she probably meant that the entire image was 640x480 pixels.
Brennan: Do you remember me, Sean?
Sean: You're the museum lady, the one who's so smart.
Brennan: Yeah, I'm pretty smart.
Attorney: (sarcastically) And modest.
Booth: Oh, believe me, she is being modest.
Cop: You mind if I make an observation?
Brennan: No, of course not.
Cop: In your book, the cops come off as very one-dimensional. Why is that?
Brennan: You mean two-dimensional.
Zack: One dimensionality exists only in theory as a mathematical value.
Cop: Oookay ... really looking forward to your next book.
Angela: Well, I wouldn't bet a date with Colin Farrell on it.
Brennan: I know him. He's funny.
Angela: Funny is Will Ferrell, sweetie. Hot is Colin Farrell.
Brennan: I'm afraid Angela might quit.
Booth: I'm amazed she stuck it out this long.
Brennan: Why?
Booth: Because she's human? (Brennan gives him a look) I'm sorry Bones, it's just, you know, Angela didn't get the same training the rest of you got on planet Vulcan.
Brennan: I don't know what that means.
Booth: She's more sensitive.
Zack: Who's more sensitive?
Brennan: Angela.
Booth: She likes puppies and kitties and ducklings and, you know, Jell-O shots, and dancing on bars.
Brennan: I know that. She's my best friend. And Angela is not the only person in the world who likes baby animals.
Zack: I never got the big attraction.
Booth: I rest my case.
(Brennan takes questions from the audience after her lecture.)
Booth: I have a question. Regarding the role of the FBI in your book, who did you base brilliant and insightful Special Agent Andy Lister on?
Goodman: Oh, for God's sake.
Brennan: Booth! I knew you'd back me up... I knew you wouldn't make me a liar.
Booth: How did you know?
Brennan: Because you want to go to Heaven.
Booth: But you don't believe in Heaven.
Brennan: But you do.
Goodman: When I said you should think of this invitation as a summons, I understated. It's a subpoena. A grand jury subpoena. Ignore it at your own peril.
Goodman: These are invitations to a banquet.
Brennan: You called a special meeting to invite us to a party?
Goodman: Don't think of it as an invitation. Consider it a summons.
Brennan: You're not going to fire us if we don't go.
Goodman: No, not fire you, but I can move your parking spot to lot M. Enjoy the shuttle ride.
Zack: The shuttle smells like feet.
(Goodman instructs the team to discuss their work when socializing.)
Goodman: And how do you see your job?
Angela: I draw death masks.
Goodman: Is that really how you see it?
Angela: Don't you?
Goodman: You are the best of us, Miss Montenegro. You discern humanity in the wreck of a ruined human body. You give victims back their faces, their identities. You remind us all of why we're here in the first place; because we treasure human life.
(Angela, all teary, hugs Goodman.)
Goodman: Oh, for God's sake.
Brennan: What happened?
Zack: Apparently all Angela needed was to hear her job description in a deep, African-American tone.
Goodman: Mr. Addy!
Hodgins: Do you have time for this?
Brennan: They gave me a car.
Hodgins: Nice! Who?
Brennan: My publisher. Now I feel like I have to earn it by writing another book.
Hodgins: Fight coercion in all its forms. You don't write the book, I don't go to the banquet. Solidarity.
Hodgins: I recognize that look.
Brennan: What?
Hodgins: You're writing another book. When you write, you get a stunned look on your face like you stuck a fork in a toaster.
Booth: Okay, if you can't see the guy's face, maybe you can clear up a reflection.
Zack: That's a workable idea.
Booth: Well, I'd say thanks, you know, if you didn't say it like it was some kind of a miracle.
Booth: You're actually one of them, aren't you?
Angela: One of who?
Booth: A squint! I mean, you look normal, and you act normal, but you're actually one of them.
Angela: This whole mass recognition program was Brennan's idea. I'm completely normal, really.
Booth: Yeah, maybe before you got this job, but now ...
Booth: (referring to Hodgins) Paranoia and delusions of grandeur ... all in one package.
Angela: I'm an artist. I used to draw naked guys, now I draw dead guys.
Featured Music:
"Some of Us" by Starsailor (plays while the suspect is being arrested and again at the very end)
International Air Dates:
Denmark: March 7th, 2006 on TV3
Norway: Thursday, July 6th, 2006 on TV3
Germany: Thursday, October 26th, 2006 on RTL
Booth: Angela didn't get the training the rest of you guys got on the planet Vulcan.
Vulcan is a planet in the Star Trek universe that is populated by a race of people who live their lives by the concept of logic, and suppress their emotions through meditation so the emotions won't interfere with their judgment or actions.
Zack: It makes me look like the Great Gazoo.
The Great Gazoo is a two-foot-high green alien with magical powers that appears in the final season of the animated program The Flintstones.
Booth: How's it going there, Darth, seen anything on Saturn? Please tell me you've seen at least one Star Wars movie.
The Star Wars franchise is a set of six films that were written and directed by George Lucas. Darth Vader is the primary villain in the first three installments (last three sequentially), and he must wear a suit and mask that serve as artificial limbs and respirator.

Running Time: 90
Director: Adrian Gold
Company: Legend 2000
Cast: Pete Welsh, Taylor St. Clair, Matt Jade, Frank Towers, Randee Lee, Johnni Black, Phyllisha Anne
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
The promise of the first 20 or so minutes are so effective that this should be considered a must-see tape. Stock it.
The premise of this tape (girl bound to chair by high-tech sadist, with no recourse but fantasy) screams out for respect, to be considered more than a highbrow w-t-w; but it isn't, and wears thin after about 30 minutes. However, there's no denying the skill of director Gold. There is style, momentum and attitude. The writing is subtle (at first) and erotic, and, best of all, not obvious. The photography is superlative and the synthesis of music and visuals is downright compelling.
It doesn't last. In the end, one wants the story to keep pace with the technique, and it doesn't hold up. There is a lack of unity between the scenes. The various fantasies are unrelated to one another, especially a coupling by a pool that seems to belong to another video.

A short week for those who took the longest road
Updated: June 15, 2013, 2:46 PM ETAssociated Press
ARDMORE, Pa. -- Among those who had the shortest week at the U.S. Open took the longest road to even get to Merion.
For the first time since at least 1997, none of the 20 players who endured 18 holes of local qualifying and 36 holes of sectional qualify for the U.S. Open made the cut.
That doesn't mean the experience was a total waste of time.
Take 18-year-old Gavin Hall, who birdied his last four holes to make it through sectional qualifying in New York. Hall went to bed Thursday ...

In the final quarter of 2012, Defense Department officials entered 67.5 percent of their required contractor reviews into the Past Performance Information Retrieval System. That's a 1.5 percent improvement over the previous quarter, but it soon may not be good enough.
The Office of Federal Procurement Policy intends to recommend 100 percent compliance by fiscal 2015, Richard Ginman, director of defense procurement and acquisition policy at DOD, wrote in a Jan. 28 memo.
"We are currently looking into setting aggressive goals in this area," OFPP Administrator Joe Jordan told FCW. "We believe procurement officials across the U.S. government should use past performance data to build the right supplier relationships to deliver better outcomes and efficiencies for the American people."
Contracting officers are supposed to take stock of how a company performed on a contract and then upload the review into PPIRS. The database gives a history for other agencies to assess whether a company has done quality work for the government.
Among defense agencies and military departments, only four surpassed 80 percent compliance: the Air Force; the Defense Logistics Agency; and Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The Defense Human Resources Activity reached 91 percent, but overall, Ginman wrote, DOD "must improve the completion of contractor performance assessments."

Skip to comments.Movie/Television/Rap Star Nick Cannon Shoots Pro-Life Music Video
Posted on 06/11/2005 10:28:53 AM PDT by Keyes2000mt
HOLLYWOOD, CA, June 10, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Nick Cannon, an accomplished actor, comedian, songwriter and producer with a host of credentials to his name at the age of twenty-four, including his own television show, has released his debut solo album. The album marks Cannon's first all-out effort to cross from the film-making/television industry into the music industry, although he has been involved in the music scene for years, working closely with the likes of Will Smith.
The feature song entitled "Can I Live", on the album by the same name, is being praised by advocates of the culture of life for its powerfully pro-life statement. Cannon recently released the music video for the song, which is available for free online. The video has been consistently voted in the top ten at the music-video rating site, 106 Park & 10 for some weeks. (to vote go here: http://www.bet.com/Site+Management/Polls/106+and+P... )
The video, skillfully directed by Cannon himself, beautifully dramatizes the torment and the uncertainty as Cannon's own mother arrives at a "Women's Health Clinic" (abortuary) in the late seventies with the obvious intention of ending the life of her child. Cannon himself appears in the video clad in white, symbolically portraying the person of the as-yet unborn child, and giving voice to his own implicit right and desire to live.
Throughout the video he tries to connect with his unheeding mother and to plead his own case, at one point crying out to her "300 Dollars that's the price of living what? / Mommy I don't like this clinic / hopefully you'll make the right decision / and don't go though with the Knife Decision."
In the second to last scene Cannon's mother rises from the operating table as her unborn son's silent arguments penetrate and she runs from the clinic into the sunshine. There she is greeted by several dozen children singing the chorus and wearing T-shirts with the words "Can I Live" printed on them.
The video closes with Cannon hugging his present-day mother saying "I am just telling ya'll my story/ I love my life / I love my mother for giving me life / We all need to appreciate life/ A strong women that had to make a sacrifice / Thanks for listening / Mama thanks for listening."
Cannon has received a slew of support from his fans on the message board of his official fan page, with many confessing that they wept the first time they viewed the video. One woman recounted how his video confirmed her in her last minute decision not to have an abortion.
Most remarkable of all is the message Cannon himself posted on the message board which runs as follows:
"This record is extremely important to me and to our community. There are a lot of young mothers in need and have had to struggle to raise their children. I just wanted to recognize all the strong women who are raising children on their own like my mother had to do. Myself and my foundation really want to help these young women. If any of you out there know a single mother between the ages of 15-25 who may be having a difficult time I would love to hear the story. Please write to me and explain the condition and how I could possibly help. I will check the website and respond accordingly."
Subsequent posts by the board administrator assured his fans that Nick had received all the requests for assistance and was deliberating how to best assist each woman.
See the "Can I Live" video: http://www.nickcannonmusic.com/index_main.html
He just ruined his career in Hollywood.
Hey, you joined FR today to post that crap? And no comment from you? I think you took a wrong turn somewhere...
What the f* is this crap?
What about the above article do you think is crap?
Sorry, I misread your comment.
No harm, no foul, FRiend!
maybe...but he just gained one more fan in Atlanta.
I guess I'll forgive him for "Drumline" now :)
Mano-O-Man-O-Man, That was a Truly PHENOMENAL Video!!
Normally, I'm not really interested in Rap music of today, bu WOO-hhoo-Wee, That was truly G-O-O-D!!
Thank You, Father GOD, for this man, Nick Cannon's, story, for His mom & her Best & Right CHoice for her son's life back then!!!
This is beautiful....wonderfully done video and the music while not my usual taste is well done. I can actually understand the words. Pray that the impact is made on others who don't understand yet what being pro life is all about.
We loved Drumline too!
WOW, what a powerful video. Folks this may do more to prevent abortions than 100 abortion clinic pickets..
I love Drumline. Great movie!
okay, not to argue...but...
when two guys really don't like each other...the way they settle things isn't.."pick up your drum and we'll drum off". other than that... ha.
ha. hey, i watched the movie...points against me. but this video is 'off the chain'. very impressive and powerful. i agree with earlier post, it will do more to promote life than 100 protests at clinics.
Here's the lyrics. I'm sending them around to everybody I know. Let's help this get all the publicity we can! And air time! And album sales!
Album: Nick Cannon
Song: Can I Live
Talking Ma
I know the Situation is Personal
but its something that has to be told.
As I was making this beat
you was all I could think about, you heard my voice.
[Verse 1]
Yeah Just think Just Think
what if you could Just
Just blink your self away..
Just Just wait just pause for a second
Let me plead my case:
Its the late 70's Huh
You Seventeen Huh
and having me, that will ruin everything, huh
its a lot of angel waiting for there wings
you see me in your sleep ---so you cant kill your dreams
300 Dollars. thats the price of living what?
Mommy I dont like this clinic!
Hopefully you'll make the right decision
and dont go though with the Knife Decision
but Its hard to make the right move
when you in high school
how you have to work all day and take night school
hopping off da bus when the rain is pouring--
What you want, morning sickness or the Sickness of mourning?
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
I Will Always Be a part of you
Trust Your Soul Know His Heart Is True
If I Could Talk I Would Say To You
[Verse 2]
I' m a child of the king
aint no need to go fear me
and I see the flowing tears, so I know that you hear me.
When I move in your womb that's me being scaredy
cause who knows what my future holds?
Yo --the truth be told you aint told a soul
Yo-- you aint even showing, I just 2 months old
though your clothes try to hide me deny me went up 3 sizes

ping to little jeremiah
I love it! Gave me chills. :o) God Bless him.
Thank you for sharing this! I'm going to forward it to everyone I know.
Was it fatal?
I just watched it without sound - I cried. It's awesome.
Don't miss this video. Seriously.
That video literally gave me goosebumps. Bravo to Mr. Cannon!
That was amazing!
It gave me goose bumps, and brought tears to my eyes.
That was truly wonderful!
I hope it doesn't hurt his career.
Thank you so much for the ping!
Wow! I expected a preachy type of song.. but it wasn't..
Bless him for this new video.
Thanks for the link this was great.
I sent the lyrics to all my friends. When you read the words and then watch the video it is absolutely stunning. Can't we get this into the high schools?
When my two were in jr and senior high, I was able to get quite a bit in...
..going through proper channels, of course, and respectfully requesting to the principal and occasionally the school board....
..it can be done.
OK. Marking a place so I won;t forget. Thanks bourbon.
How novel!
You have me laughing so hard.I thought he had a gun and shot it.He produced a pro life video?
Please FreepMail me if you want on or off my Pro-Life Ping List.
They are not protests but rather we are the voices of the children who cannot cry out for their own lives. Each baby who has been saved because someone cried out for it's life is a testimony to the necessity of having caring people there at the door of death. What is the value of the life of a one person? The last possible chance the baby has for it's life to be saved happens at the door of the abortion clinic. I hope to find you there crying out please don't kill your precious child. Your baby needs you to love it. Please let us help you and your baby. How glad you will be that you were there when a mother comes up, thanking you and holding her child that she says was going to die that day you cried out "Please let your baby live".
Wow. Truly powerful. What a great young man this guy is.
Watch This Video Now!!
Ditto. Pro-Life Bump.
Thanks so much for posting this. truly a light in the darkness. Awesome and powerful.

This centre, on the site of an old colliery, is the ideal place to start your cycling adventure.
Enjoy a gentle ride through the forest on the Family Cycle Trail or test your skills on one of our MTB or downhill trails.
On your bike!
Cannop Cycle Centre is the starting point for the Forest of Dean Family Cycle Trail which consists of eleven miles of waymarked, surfaced tracks.
Two singletrack trails have been designed for cyclists looking for a more adventurous ride. The 4 mile red grade (difficult) Freeminer Trail and the 7 mile blue grade (moderate) Verderers' Trail.
For experienced riders only, there are a number of 'downhill' trails and an uplift service available, Flyupdownhill, for transport to the top of the slopes.
For the safety of walkers and wildlife, please keep all off-road mountain biking to the Sallowvallets MTB area behind the Cycle Centre. In the wider forest, you can explore using hard surfaced tracks, but please do not ride off-road or on waymarked walking trails.
As well as hiring bikes, Pedalabikeaway also offers refreshments, toilets and a bike workshop. Contact Pedalabikeaway on 01594 860065 for further details.
Beechenhurst Lodge is a short 5 minute cycle ride over the bridge at the start of the Family Cycle Trail.

I have 3 tables which look like this:
Location Node Sektor
----- ------- -------
PK: ID - Autonumber PK: ID - Autonumber PK: ID - Autonumber
Name NodeName Sektor
Height Aksess Frequency
Latitude Tag Coverage
Longtitude IP
Each location is connected with multiple nodes which is connected with multiple sektors.
Now the interesting part. In Microsoft Access you can make schemas which allows users to easily add data. I have the final table looking like this which I want to use my schema to insert data into:
PK: CustID
This is where I want the magic to be done. I want the user to be able to first select a location, then be presented with available nodes (preferably in dropdown) and finally he can pick the correct sektor for the customer hes adding.
Anyone know a fairly easy way of doing this? I started making a macro for this, but my memory of macros are really bad atm, and I dont have the correct literature with me atm to look it up.
Any help appriciated =)

Translation of satyr in Spanish:
- 1 (Mythology)Example sentences
- One side depicts Herakles, clad in spotted tunic with dagger drawn, about to slay the Nemean lion; the other, Dionysus and two nude satyrs.
- He relates how a satyr found pipes discarded by their inventor, Minerva (the goddess Athena in Greek mythology), how the satyr challenged Apollo, and how he was punished as a result.
- As befits the son of a satyr, Midas was a king who loved the pleasures of this world.
- 2 (lecher) (literary or humorous)Example sentences
- Five years of sexual relations with this satyr of a King were all that she could manage, given what she called her 'cold temperament' and her numerous health complications.
- Unfortunately, Sutherland plays a pony-tailed satyr of only limited charm, and Garner, who is a fine comic actor, is never really put to work.
- Her confrontation of the insatiable satyr while he has his hand up another honey's haunches is the sole moment of real emotion in what is otherwise a movie of surfaces.

1991 Nissan Sentra Sedan E 4dr Sedan
This is a solid inexpensive
beginners car. I still drive it, the paint
has peeled off but the car is solid, it
came with 1 dent at 180k miles, and
now it is at 202k w 1 more dent, I
popped both out with a little work. 40
mpg and low maintenance, I couldn't
ask for more.
Solid construction, excellent epa,
decent room for passengers and a
must drive 5spd.
Mine is the most barebones stock
vehicle out there but it is easy to
adapt to. Should've had a drop down
back seat to allow passage to the
trunk, and a more longivative paint
job. But it is still aok.
I bought this car new in 1991. Over
the years it has served us well. The
only major repair was the clutch after
about 6 years of use. It is a good
car for transportation. Only minor
things have worn out over time. An
American make would have been in the
junk yard years ago.
Small engine but very good pick up
even with the air on. Has a sporty
feel to it, even though it is a base
model. The SE-R sport model is really
mostly the same as this car.
Should only be bought with 1.8 engine
if you get a stick. Otherwise, you
will be dogging on start up from
lights or trying to get on the freeway.

Dating as leisure
Partner selection occurs naturally and informally, but it may also be organized through commercial intermediaries facilitating mating and dating. This paper focuses on the relationship between online dating and the business cycle . We rely on monthly data covering the period from January 2004 to August 2008 on the demand for online dating in France to study whether economic recession tends to stimulate the online dating industry. We find that during economic downturns, people tend to to increase their demand for online dating, which is consistent with anedoctal evidences suggesting that some people have more time to invest in online dating and that the marginal utility of dating increases during economic recession.
