PXR-6 Ultranoir
Written by Kris on July 5, 2008. Permalink
The PXR-6 has been revamped on the inside, but functions and looks the same on the outside.
The functions remain the same and are simple, clear and to the point: time and date on a dark background with light type. And when the light button is pressed, it glows with beautiful blue light. The bracelet is almost an inch wide and can be adjusted to a minimum length of 6.5″ (16,5 cm) or a maximum of 8.25″ (21 cm).

You also conveniently left out how late you actually are on your payment. I bet since you are talking about being called 3 or more times a week..it is at least your January Payment..perhaps even back as far as December or November.
You say that the payoff amount doesn't match what you "think" you owe. Well that is because that probably includes late fees and additional interest that you will owe..especially if this is not the first time you have been late.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Arum, 50 Cent Have Spoken Since Mayweather's Release
By Robert Morales
Top Rank's CEO, Bob Arum, told BoxingScene.com that he has spoken to 50 Cent since Floyd Mayweather Jr. was released from jail earlier this month. The rapper apparently is hopeful of becoming the next big-time promoter, and Arum has said he believes he could make a fight between Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao if Mayweather lets 50 Cent promote his side rather than Golden Boy Promotions, which has helped Mayweather promote has past six fights.
"We did (speak) with Curtis Jackson, 50 cent, but I assume they're looking at a fight next year, which we want to do," Arum told BoxingScene.com. "It shouldn't be hard to make and so forth. Just get it done."
A few months ago, 50 Cent formed his own promotional company, TMT Promotions, and signed several fighters - including Yuriorkis Gamboa, Celestino Caballero, Andre Dirrell and Billy Dib.
The exact details of Pacquiao's next fight, mainly the opponent and the date, is still up in the air. With November 10th creeping closer and closer, it's becoming likely that Pacquiao will fight in the month of December. The MGM Grand in Las Vegas is the target venue, and Juan Manuel Marquez, Timothy Bradley and Miguel Cotto are the three potential opponents being considered.
Robert Morales covers boxing for the LA Daily News, Press Telegram and BoxingScene.com.

WASHINGTON (AP) Federal regulators are proposing to phase out thousands of older rail tank cars that carry crude oil. It's the government's response to a series of fiery train crashes over the past year, including a runaway oil train that exploded in the Quebec town of Lac-Megantic, killing 47 people.
The Department of Transportation said Wednesday that older DOT-111 tank cars will have to be retrofitted or replaced.
Accident investigators have complained for decades that the cars are too easily punctured or ruptured when derailed, spilling their contents.

MONTGOMERY — Take Flight Aviation, along with Orange-Ulster BOCES directors, held an open house June 23 at Orange County Airport in Montgomery for potential students and their parents to receive information about the launch of the new aviation program for the 2014-15 school year.
Take Flight, in partnership with BOCES, has created a unique opprotunity for students who are interested in aviation as a career. The Take Flight Aviation staff consists of experienced instructors with more than 15 years of training and tens of thousands of hours of instruction time in various aircraft.
The two-year program will give the students the skills necessary to obtain their Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Private Pilot Certificate, the first step in a career in aviation. Typically, students who have already earned their Private Pilot Certificate accumulate credit considerations at various aviation colleges.
The classroom portion of the program includes instruction in areas such as aerodynamics, airspace, aircraft performance, communication and radar service, aeronautical charts, aircraft systems, meteorology for pilots, FAA regulations, weight and balance calculations, flight operations, weather charts, aeromedical factors, emergency procedures, and cross-country flight planning.
The flight portion of the course will teach the students how to safely operate the airplane during all phases of flight, including taxiing, take-off, straight and level, climbs, descents, turns, ground reference and performance maneuvers, and various types of landings.
The office of Take Flights was packed with interested students and parents. A tour and demonstration of the Red Bird FMX Flight Simulator really piqued the interest of the students. Many did not hesitate to grab a seat in the flight training device. There will also be a flight simulator at BOCES in Goshen.
When they are ready, the students will be taking a Cesna 150 to the sky. A student must have 40 hours of air time to obtain a private pilot license.
Ryan Mayo, owner of Take Flight for the past five years, spoke with students abut the course of the program and answered questions.
"There is a whole host of careers that can be had in the aviation field," Mayo said. "There is also different salary options depending on what direction you take."
Classes begin in September. For more information about BOCES and their programs, visit ouboces.org.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

Are you serious?
AUTHOR: Mia - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, December 03, 2011POSTED: Saturday, December 03, 2011
Here is what I suggest you do. Check your bank statement, without fail, every month. Or go online every couple of days and review what has posted to your account. With the proliferation of Smart Phones nowadays everyone has access to their bank 24/7. Should you find a charge you have not made, immediately call the number on back of the card to report the charge. Give all the information they ask for (and they may have to ask questions to verify you are the actual owner of the account, not a fraudulent person attempting to get a new debit or credit card sent to another address, or any other type of access, so answer these questions as well.) After the report has been taken, ask for a new card to be sent and the compromised card closed. If the charges don't have anything to do with a card, say for example someone used an electronic transfer to remove funds, then have the account closed and the remaining funds transferred into a new account. Before the conversation ends a report number or confirmation number will be provided. Write that number down along with the name and employee number of the person you are speaking to. They are trained to give this information so while they may not give out a last name you will get the employee identification number. Keep this information. They will mail you a confirmation that a report has been taken. Keep that paper as well. This means you have to open every piece of mail from your bank. Don't assume it is junk mail. The banker who helps you will give you a timeline regarding how long it takes to credit back your account. In some cases it maybe be a provisional credit (provisional based on the fact the charge is unauthorized. If the charge is deemed authorized it will stand, if not the credit will be reversed,) given within 24 hours or up to two business days. Banks are NOT required as a provision within the REG E to go back indefinitely. No matter how much ranting and shouting and threatening you do, you will get nowhere. Sure you can go to your local t.v station you can contact the appropriate state and federal agencies but your best bet is to be professional and polite. If you can state your case that includes a reasonable explanation about why it took you longer than 60 days to notice the unauthorized charge, (i.e. you were in the hospital and things got away from you, or you had a baby, a death in the family, etc.) then most banks will look at your mitigating circumstances and take the report. Most everything can be resolved in your favor if you present your situation in a calm and professional way. Throwing failure to follow federal regulations at some poor bank employee when you yourself have failed to follow the simple due diligence required to maintain a bank account is counter productive and will not get you what you want, which is, your money back in your account and your account information safeguarded. Good Luck.

This is a wonderful place to stay. The room we had was terrifically appointed and had anything we would want in it. The location is very good inside Liberty. The morning breakfast was terrific and plentiful. Good coffee available early -a plus. Carolyn and Steve were really good hosts and a fund of information about local options. A really good place to stay - especially for a special location.

My wife and I have visited numerous Inns around the country and can assure you this one is top notch. Carolyn and Steve were great hosts. Genuinely concerned about our stay. The entire place was spotless, inside and out. Our room, The Withers, was huge and so nicely decorated. King bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding both mornings. Very different both days. The Hatcher's seemed know the Liberty and Kansas city area well and had some good input on where to visit and dine. Don't hesitate to give this one a try, you won't be disappointed.

We truly enjoyed our stay in the Withers Room to celebrate our 3rd year Anniversary. The spacious and beautifully decorated room gave us time to relax and enjoy our time together. We were pampered by all the amenities that make one feel truly welcome! We enjoyed our delicious breakfast and were captivated by listening to our host share the history of her B&B. It is clear that they love to make each stay a memorable one. Thank you Carolyn and Steve! We were very pleased with our stay!

We celebrated our anniversary in the Withers Room. We could not have picked a better place to stay. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated and every detail was thought of to keep the history of the home. Carolyn and Steve were awesome hosts and made us feel like we were old friends. The food was five star and so delicious! Their suggestions regarding Liberty were spot on and we will definitely be back. We had a totally wonderful anniversary thanks to Carolyn and Steve.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Carolyn and Steve welcomed us immediately upon arrival. They are such gracious hosts...we felt like we walked into a family member's home. The accommodations were spectacularly restored and still had some of the modern touches discretely available. Carolyn tailored made our breakfast to suit my husband's taste as well as allowing our son who attends William Jewell College to dine with us. Cannot wait to go back, Rob & Kelly Glen Carbon IL

We had an excellent stay at the Stone-Yancey house. We are from south KC, so it was quick drive. The stay was pleasant, accommodations were great and the food was FANTASTIC! Would highly recommend for KC dwellers looking for a weekend getaway.

We are a military couple, and have stayed in B&Bs throughout the world. The Stone-Yancey House is the best -- Steve and Carolyn are superb hosts, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you are in the Kansas City area, it is a destination in itself.

It was a wonderful time. My husband was apprehensive about Bed and Breakfast as he doesn't like staying in other people's homes. But he relaxed fairly quickly and enjoyed his time.
5 su novembre 18, 2013
I had a wonderful 2 night stay at the Stone-Yanc3y House. The owners are very cordial and personable folks. The home was immaculately clean. There have been several that I have stayed at that could have used a good dusting. That was not the case here. The room was very comfortable and the décor was beautiful and correct for the time period of the home. The first night when I came back in for the night, my bed had been turned down for me. The breakfasts were fit for a queen and presented beautifully. I definitely will return to this lovely B&B.

Welcome to Episode 1 of the Critical Distance Confab. The CDC podcast is a weekly discussion with a cast drawn from an irregular pool of videogame bloggers and contributors to the Critical Distance website.

The new suite, announced Thursday, replaces the set of programs previously known as Google Apps for Your Domain, which included the Start Page feature for creating a home page at a specific domain name, Gmail Web-based e-mail services, the Google Calendar shared calendar program, and Google Talk for instant-messaging and voice chat. The new Google Apps Premier Edition is comprised of those programs in addition to the Google Docs & Spreadsheets software.
While Google Apps Premier Edition isn't yet on par
with the dominant productivity suite, the Google
mystique and the $50 price count for a lot.
The announcement of a revamped business application suite from Google had been anticipated for some time, as reported by CNET News.com.
Businesses can subscribe to Google Apps Premier Edition for $50 per year for each user account. While all of the applications are available in a free, ad-supported form to consumers, a subscription to the enterprise version offers enhanced customer support features, 10 gigabytes of storage per user, no advertisements and a set of APIs (application programming interfaces) designed to help companies' IT professionals further customize the service. Additionally, Google has assured business users that they will have the privilege of 99.9 percent reliability--an important point for the company to stress, as have occasionally irked its consumer base.
In addition, with the launch of Google Apps Premier Edition, mobile Gmail access is now available for BlackBerry handheld devices. This is available to all BlackBerry users, not just those who have access to a subscription of Premier Edition.
"We're extremely excited, and we think this is something that will be good for the market," commented Matt Glotzbach, head the Google Enterprise Product Team. "Our goal is to provide an application that's a pleasure to use for the end user. All too often, we hear users, especially in larger companies, say, 'Why can't it just work like Google?' and that's what we want to provide: Google applications in a business environment."
The inclusion of the Docs & Spreadsheets applications raises the question of whether Google, which already boasts a business user base of approximately 100,000 small businesses and universities, is aiming to eat into the market share of productivity suites like Microsoft Office and OpenOffice.org. But Glotzbach insisted that the collaboration and mobility functionality served up by Google Apps, accessible from an Internet browser rather than an installed piece of software, makes it a different set of applications entirely.

They return all utensils to their original place. They put all rubbish in the bins at the entrance to the building.
The place is about 400 meters from New Cross Station, which gives you access to the Overground and the mainline railway (Note: the Overground is connected to the tube/underground - it just runs over ground - all tickets are valid). Deptford Bridge Station is even closer. From here the DLR (Docklands Light Railway) will take you to Greenwhich and Canary Wharf. There are also numerous buses, which pass New Cross Road and go straight to central London, including several night buses, so you can always get home no matter what time of night! You can be in Trafalgar Square (by train) in just 15 minutes. The vibrant and eclectic area of Shoreditch is also just 15 minutes on the Overground. The location is ideal for any tourist or person working in central London!
So far all the guests in the house have been very nice, interesting, responsible and very respectful of one another. I believe that they have all enjoyed their stay. The apartment is maintain daily to a high standard. In the local area you will find everything you need for a great stay; there are 24 hour food shops, cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, some really nice traditional English pubs and the famous Deptford Market all within walking distance of the place. The place is very close to Goldsmith University campus, so could be an ideal base if you are visiting the university for a conference.

To make sure you understand this rating correctly: This was original written in english.
Let's start at the start:
Room and apartment:
We found the place pretty easily. Sidneys description was precise and understandable.
Unfortunately Sidney was not there at the time, but he wrote an email pointing that out and left instructions how to get. - Two tips on the side for all travellers: Keep your emails with you and use international prefixes for ANY phone numbers you are using. Else it could be you would reach someone, but somehow they can not hear you.
The apartment was in an old building and it has seen a lot of residents. It was clean though and the room itself was okay.
It was NOT the one from the photo. We asked Sidney for the room advertised here and he said it would be available, but closer to the train (so louder) and that he had to change rooms, because of overbookings.
We decided to stay in the room nevertheless, because it was enough for the few days we were there.
The toilet and the bath (both in separate rooms, which is great until you need to wash your hands) were clean. The bath is very old and needs refurbishment though.
The shower...yeah..it was okay. But especially if you are a girl, you really need time for this thing. Not only, because you only get very cold or too hot water out of it. For this you need like five minutes of fine tuning and then the pressure is very low (girl with long hair specific problem).
Soap would be a nice to have thing there. Comming from the toilet standing there, thinking "...no soap?" was kind of irritating. I know it was no hotel, but anyway, it would have been nice.
Kitchen had all we needed. Place to stash our groceries, a cooker and even a washing machine. Dishes and cutlery also. A fridge for everyone to use and split by rooms (4 altogether) was also there.
The room itself was okay for a few days. We (2 persons) had enough place to turn around ^^
A closet would have been nice (not only, because there was one in the picture), but we had at least a clothes rail and managed to get along with it.
The train was not so much audible as it would have distracted our sleep at any time.
The construction workers (there is currently a scaffold all around the house. Modernization is going on ;)) started very late with the loud work and we even found sleep over the day.
The bed and the room as everything were very clean.
The internet was kind of good until others arrived. I researched that problem and it seems to have something to do with the ISP. I reported that issue to Sidney on our last day there and he said he will take care of it.
Transport connection
The train is really close. Let it be a five minute walk. The bus also arrives almost half the way to the train.
It has a really great connection to the city. The one thing you will see the most is the London Bridge Station if you are heading into the city ;P
BUT! you need to be very careful with relying on the train at night. You - at least we could not - can not reach the station at night after 00:00 o'clock. You need to take busses then and believe me: That can be an adventure.
Take a really good look at the time tables of those if plan going out partying or stuff that keeps you up late.
A little tip: New Cross Gate is NOT! very far (about 5 minute walk) from New Cross Station. We found it a lot easier to get a bus there than to New Cross Station or the other bus station that is only 15 meters from there, but closer to the apartment.
The apartment is really close (about three minute walk) to all kinds of shops or snack bars. You can get take away food on the whole street. About seven minutes from the apartment there are grocery stores. The 99 pence store has really ALL you need. But I recommend not to buy any meat there. It tastes kind of funny. But for drinks, snacks etc. it is great.
We were a little disappointed.
Wimdu misleadingly uses the phrase 'couchsurfing' which is not what this it offers. It offers sometimes pricing seemingly anonymous apartment (rooms) offered (sometimes) by private persons.
We wanted to stay with someone giving us some tips, someone we could maybe sit and breakfast with and dip into his/her British life for some days.
Also couchsurfing is for free ;P
But this is not by any means Sidneys fault. He gave us a pricing opportunity to stay in London close to the central city.
He talked to us, gave us some tips and had an open ear to all of our questions. He was always reachable when we needed him and reacted very promptly if there was a problem or anything else.
The shower, the internet and the other small issues mentioned above are not that bad if you are out of the apartment for the whole day and just want a place to sleep and freshen up. You also can avoid or at least compensate situations like coming home late with the bus by good preparation and/or mobile internet.
Thanks for the stay, Sidney. :)
Maybe we see each other again ;)
Sorry Sidney to my delayed comment,
This flat is very good if you like roomates.
I stayed in Sidney's flat one week, and I were very enjoy of it. All you need is here... All accomodations in flat, and you are closed to shops, pubs and subway.
I hope I could to come again in this flat to my next trip in London!
Good budget room. Transport links to London are fairly good. The host Sidney is friendly and hospitable. Would use again.
We had a very great time by Sidney! Perfect location for visiting London! Next time again!
We found our stay at Sidney's very pleasant. Sidney was very accommodating with our plans and very helpful. The apartment gives easy access to subway and some fun places close by to enjoy.
Todo estuvo bien, tal y como sidney lo explicó. Esta bien si quieres comer o cenar en casa y la habitación es normal.
Nicht noch einmal. Von der Lage ist das Zimmer wirklich ok gewesen und mit den bahnen gut zu erreichen. Leider entsprachen Zimmer und Wohnung nicht den Bildern der Wimdu Seite. In der kompletten Wohnung herrschte ein bestialer, stechender, unbeschreiblicher Gestank. Im Duschbad waren die Wände komplett voller grünem Schimmel und auch die Toilette war von diesem betroffen. Ich musste mich wirklich zusammen reißen mich nicht beim Zähne putzen zu übergeben weil einfach alles so ekelerregend war. Beim nächsten mal würde ich lieber 50€ mehr bezahlen und mir eine vernünftige bleibe suchen. Ich kann diese Zimmer nicht weiter empfehlen.
Kathastrophe! Das war die Hölle! Unser Anpruch war nicht sehr hoch, aber wir hätten genauso gut in der Kanalisation schlafen können. Beissender Uringestank und der Gestank nach Schweiss waren einer der Highlights in dieser Crackhöhle. Ein sauberes Bett hätte gereicht, aber das war wohl zu viel verlangt. Die Lage war nicht gut. Mit einem Spaceshuttle hätte man es vielleicht in 7 Minuten zur Londonbridge geschafft, soviel zum Thema "in 7 Minuten zur Londonbridge". Der Typ kann sich glücklich schätzen, dass er nicht dort war... Das war das letzte Mal, dass wir über Wimdu gebucht haben. Wir hätten Geld in einem Mülleimer im Hydepark reinwerfen, reinpissen und anzünden können. Wir wollen das Geld zurück! Das wird noch ein Nachspiel haben, wir werden uns das sicher nicht gefallen lasssen. Ah ja, wir haben schlussendlich in einem Hotel ůbernachtet, aus Angst davor, dass wir in der Nacht vergewaltigt werden.
Die Lage der Unterkunft war gut, direkt von London Bridge zu erreichen und auch die Beschreibung ab New Cross Station sehr gut. Das Zimmer einfach eingerichtet aber mit guter Matratze, was für uns wesentlich war.
Negativ war, dass im ganzen Viertel gerade Fassadenarbeiten gemacht wurden, auch unser Gebäude war komplett eingerüstet. Die Dusche war die ersten Tage nicht zu nutzen, Wasserschaden an der Decke führte zu Stromausfall.
Negativ war auch, dass man wirklich superdünne Wände zu den 3 weiteren vermieteten Zimmern hatte - wir hatten darüberhinaus Zimmernachbarn, die sich mehr als zuhause fühlten und leider ab 7 morgens und nach 24 abends trotz unserer Bitte unüberhörbar waren.
Sidney sollte versuchen, seine Gäste nochmals um Rücksichtnahme zu bitten.
Schade war, dass wir ihn weder bei Ankunft noch zwischendurch gesehen haben. Wir hätten gerne ein paar Insider Tipps von ihm bekommen. Aber alles in allem hat seine Organisation mit dem Schlüssel gut geklappt.
Keuken is erg gammel en een beetje vies. Pannen kun je niet gebruiken omdat het vies van de vorige gebruikers er nog in zit. Vlekken op het bed in de woonkamer. Spiegelwand in de slaapkamer staat los. Gevaarlijk.

Foolish me, I took the payment option.
It was supposed to be 3 payments. The shipping and handling charges are excessive and written in VERY fine print. Ok, you got me, I wasn't paying attention.
When the 4th payment showed up in my checking account I called them. The customer service is overseas, so it's really difficult to understand. He said they don't have 3 payments, only 6 payments.
So I'm going to pay well over $150 for this stupid thing when I could have purchased it at Costco for about $75
DO NOT order this online. I don't have a problem with the device, it's very convenient. The company is ripping people off though. If you really want one, buy it at Costco.

I've had this song chorus in my head since 1990. Please send help.
I went to summer camp in northern Minnesota in the late 80s/early 90s. I was exposed to all kinds of awesome music there from kids all over the country, which was a huge big thing for young midwestern me. I remember sitting on a cold lake beach listening intently to a mix tape one of the older girls was playing, and there is a song that has stuck in my head ever since. The chorus is something like "So wave goodbye to everything you knew." I can still noodle it out on piano and guitar, but I can't identify the song. Please help. [more inside]

late 90s r&b song identification
There was a duet in the late 90s sung by r&b artists...one male, one female. Only thing I can remember is that it was a love song, it had a lot of bass and one of the lyrics was about Al Green. The singers went back and forth as if they were in a relationship, I believe. [more inside]

Help me find this shy 20th-century British male writer
Two or so years ago, I read the beginning of a biography of a writer, probably a poet.

But that is all I am certain about -- I have vague memories of a few further details that I could easily be confusing with stories from other people's lives, or even from novels. [more inside]

What kind of bird is this? (Photo within)
I need help identifying this bird. A fried took the photo while traveling in Texas a few days ago. The bird was seen in the urban area of Dallas, TX. Thanks!
Waltz identification
The main melody goes something like G# A G# F# D# G# (the last G# is lower), which is then repeated several times transposed to different notes. What is this piece?
What book about BASIC programming did I read as a child?
I'm trying to remember a book I read about BASIC game programming when I was a child. I don't know the exact publication date, but it would have been in the late 1980s or early 1990s that I borrowed it from the library. It was about how to write a text adventure game set under the ocean. Can you help me? [more inside]
What kind of duck is this supposed to be?
I need to know what kind of real-world duck this children's book illustration depicts. [more inside]
Movie identification: sheep balloons?
What movie did I see in school in the late 80's that featured sheep being punctured with a huge needle-ish poker thing to save the sheep by releasing internal gas resulting from grazing on the wrong kind of grass? And does all that really happen?
Is this a bedbug?
A friend of mine came over in a panic this morning because she found two strange little bugs in her bed. She captured one and we have photos. What is this insect?
What's this picture book about an invisible dog?
ASKING FOR A FRIEND: She is trying to remember the name of an old picture book that was about an invisible dog. We think it was originally published in the 30s, then re-released in the 90s at Costco as part of a set of three picture books, one of which was about a lion. [more inside]
Short story ID: marketer helps niche group hide from marketers
Trying to identify a short story in which someone whose job is to identify emerging groups of people with specialized interests and target them as niche markets turns those skills to helping some group hide their purchases and whatnot to evade that kind of targeting. Maybe the group being helped contained some relatives of the marketer? I'm pretty sure I read it within the past 15 years, and it's possible it was in one of those annual collections of SF short stories (like Dozois's series).

Can you review the criteria for a song I'm trying to track down, and help me find it? 1980s pop/dance sound, male vocalist, lyrics like "you shine so great". [more inside]
What is this tree? (Los Angeles)
I went on a walk today and saw these great trees flowering. The flowers are about the size of an orchid flower, and kind of look like one, too. On the same street, there were different trees with white flowers and with pale pink striped flowers, maybe light purple ones, too. What are they? [more inside]
'90s Literary Sci-fi Novel Identification
A literary Sci-fi novel I read in the mid to late '90s. Sketchily remembered details: A boy has been genetically modified for talent in the visual arts. He is told at one point to "open his gift" and goes on to become a famous artist and perhaps something of a guru. A few more details within. [more inside]
Who made this flowchart?
I'd like to know who originally created this flowchart on asking a question after a speaker's presentation.

2Pac God Lyrics
Last updated: 07/17/2005 12:00:00 PM
[Reverend Run]
When I was alone, and had nothing
I asked for a friend to help me bear the pain
No one came, except God
When I needed a breath to rise, from my sleep
No one could help me.. except God
When all I saw was sadness, and I needed answers
No one heard me, except God
So when I'm asked.. who I give my unconditional love to?
I look for no other name, except God

In what has to be a new low for the New York Times, the Gray Lady (or should we now say the Bearded Lady?) has published an op-ed piece titled "Is God Transgender?" by a New York rabbi named Mark Sameth. Cousin to a man who "transitioned to a woman" in the 1970s, Sameth contends that "the Hebrew Bible, when read in its original language, offers a highly elastic view of gender." He marshals many purported examples of gender fluidity in the Hebrew scriptures, in order to argue that religion should not be put in service of "social prejudices" against transgendering. But his treatment of the Bible amounts to propaganda, not scholarship.
Proposing that the God of Israel was worshipped originally as "a dual-gendered deity," the rabbi asserts, untenably, that the etymological derivation of Yahweh is "He/She" (HUHI). His argument requires that the Tetragrammaton be read, not from right to left (as Hebrew always is), but from left to right:
The four-Hebrew-letter name of God, which scholars refer to as the Tetragrammaton, YHWH, was probably not pronounced "Jehovah" or "Yahweh," as some have guessed. The Israelite priests would have read the letters in reverse as Hu/Hi—in other words, the hidden name of God was Hebrew for "He/She."
But biblical scholars are in general agreement that "Yahweh" is derived from the third-person singular of the verb "to be" (hayah), whether a qal imperfect ("he is" or "he will be") or the causative hiphil imperfect ("he causes to come into being, he creates"). This view is confirmed by numerous lines of evidence: the interpretation given in Exod 3:14 ("Say to the sons of Israel, 'ehyeh ['I am' or 'I will be' (who I am/will be)] sent me to you"); the use of shortened forms of Yahweh at the end ("Yah" or "Yahu") or beginning ("Yeho" or "Yo") of Hebrew names; the spelling "Yabe" known to the Samaritans; and transliterations "Yao," "Ya-ou-e," and "Ya-ou-ai" in some Greek texts. No historical evidence supports Sameth's reading—only his own sex ideology. Read the rest at First Things.

We live in a radically and increasingly secular society. This secularization has several prominent historical roots, and it would be reductionist to attribute it to only factor. My point isn't so much to offer a genealogy, however, but a brief diagnosis.
First, we need to know what secularism is.
Secularization doesn't mean that people no longer believe in God. It means that people no longer believe that God has any interest in culture. "[T]he process of secularization," states Christopher Dawson, "arises not from the loss of faith but from the loss of social interest in the world of faith. It begins the moment men feel that religion is irrelevant to the common way of life and that society as such has nothing to do with the truths of faith."[1] It's possible for many people in a society to believe in God and Christianity and still live in a secular society. This is precisely the case in the West, and even in North America. Secularization isn't the conviction that God doesn't exist (it isn't the same as theoretical atheism). It's the idea that God doesn't exist in any influential way in a society. Cultural secularists are rarely interested in what we'd call metaphysical issues; they just don't want God or any religion crimping their style, and especially their sex lives. Secularization is the abolition of the Triune God from everywhere except between anybody's two ears or, at best, the family, and the church between 10:00 a.m. and noon on Sunday. Secularization means that God and Christianity simply have no official or formal bearing (and have, in fact, practically no bearing at all) on politics, education, art, science, architecture, music, technology, media and so on.
This secularism has created a massive plausibility structure. By that I mean, it has remanded Christian truth as culturally relevant to the far reaches of society. It has de-privileged Christian discourse. It has ruled it not wrong, but simply out of bounds. Secularism is a faith so widespread that it no longer needs to be defended or even promoted tenaciously. Almost everybody holds it, and to believe differently is not so much to be opposed as to be ignored. Racial equality (for example) is part of our plausibility structure (it also happens to be biblically correct). People today in the West who claim that Whites or Asians are superior to Blacks or Hispanics aren't persecuted; they are ignored as kooks and cranks. Yet 250 years ago, this was an idea that was hotly disputed in the populace, including by educated elites. By contrast, if you say today that marijuana should be legalized, you'll get a real fight on your hands. That's because pot legalization is not a segment of the plausibility structure like racial equality is. Read the rest at docsandlin.com.

Is the MSM done with the lies? Are they rebelling against their handlers?

Victor Blackwell of CNN came out today and was saying the media pool reporting on the Alabama hostage "crisis" were
asking LE questions about the story. They had become quite skeptical, it seems.
LE had no comment but they got around to throwing in a
concussion grenade and pulling the plug on the fake story.
Posthaste and forthwith.
Something, I might add that could have been done on day one.
But, then the media would have been deprived of revenues and LE wouldn't get in their 'training'.
Anonymous Coward 1482838
Really? So they backed off the story because they knew it was fake?
They knew day one it was fake?
Let's put it this way. By day seven, apparently the natives were getting restless. He told Ashleigh Banfield that the media pool were asking LE questions about how they were supposedly getting the chips and toys and coloring books down a 4" PVC pipe with elbows 60 feet over to the bunker?
LE, he said wouldn't comment on their questioning whether they were actually passing things through to him.
Then, when the story broke, somehow the reporter on the scene didn't know anything but, Wolfe Blitzer broke the story in Atlanta. You tell me they aren't going to start
leaking like a sieve these guys in the field having to try to sell all these media bullshite stories, where they end up looking like a bunch of jackasses.
Anonymous Coward 1482838
So really Blitzer and Cooper and the other "stars" of CNN don't go anywhere?
I know this would make sense of course. I am surprised even the lowly Ashleigh Banedforlifers are out in the media "field"?
No. AB was at the anchor desk in Atlanta. She went to Victor who appeared to be there. Or not. He could have been making phone calls for all I know and not getting his "sources" to give him any answers.
And no, of course Blitzer and Cooper and any big name news person is not on the scene. They all use green screen reporting and actor pools to play "locals".
Do you ever see Nancy Grace out interviewing "the families" for her exploitation show? Nope.
But, that reminds me. That Jodi Arias trial is faked from all appearances. Fake court room (a set), fake storyline, fake murder case.
I think they are using it to pretend it's new "reality" TV news show.
I am starting to think that this is not the first either.
I have been going back to the Casey Anthony trial and the Trayvon Martin case thinking they are textbook examples of the new genre of TV. Fake murder cases and trials.

Goalkeeper Scott Power's two second-half saves sealed the victory
Oct. 14, 2012
BOCA RATON, FL – The Florida Atlantic men's soccer team snapped a nine-match winless streak by defeating the Howard Bison Sunday afternoon, 1-0.
The Owls got on the board quickly, as Roberto Rivera headed in a free kick off the foot of Daniel Mendes at the 4:57 mark of the first half. The FAU defense was able to make the one-goal lead hold up by limiting the Bison to just seven shots, only three on goal, in the game.
Goalkeepers Jeremy Crumpton and Scott Power split time, each contributing a half to the shutout. Crumpton had one save before the break and Power had two after.
Howard had their best chance to equalize in a 30-second stretch in the 75th minute, but Power turned away consecutive SOG attempts by Mario Martin and Brian Monge.
The Owls did have an opportunity to extend the lead when a Howard player was called for a foul in the box late in the second half. But the penalty kick attempt in the 82nd minute by Karol Chorak was saved up and over the crossbar by Bison goalkeeper Eric Hamilton.
The win is the Owls' first since August 31, and brings their record on the season to 2-9-1. Howard drops to 1-13. FAU is back in action this Friday, October 19, in a conference road matchup at Buffalo. Game time is 2 p.m.

The majority of folks who bought this in the past bought it for the divy as Idid with some hope of capital gains. There is nodivy and there is no sign that it is returning in a hurry. Do you have a link to the article you are referring to?
The 10% annual div. was halted because hql appreciation rate would not cover it, so you would be paying taxes thus taking a loss on your shares.In trying to boost the nav which has been trading around a 20% discount they are buying back 5% of the outstanding shares that has had little impact.I have several thousand shares and believe at some point the nav discount will be reduced by market forces and also the bio tech is a very good investment. I also think the mgt. is very good.
Thanks for the info. I do not have a link, only a long, printed article that contained the recommendation. The newsletter is called Sound Advice. It's a subscription deal. Don't know if it's online or not. A friend has been passing it to me for years. The author emphasizes that HQL is a long-term,high risk/high reward investment Says they have made money twice with it, starting in the mid-1990s, and suggest that now is another good time to get in. So you veterans might see a little movement. Who knows? I have a little play money and think i'll put it here.
By the way it is not a high risk high reward ETF.I would advice you to get their reports and even call them for questions you might have before investing, do some homework before investing so you can have the confidence during a down turn in the market of why you invested.
