Today, I was looking through my bank statement and saw that I had two separate charges (totalling 45.00!) from this TWX magazine company. I have not even received any magazines! So, all I did was call the phone number above, and pushed zero to talk to a human being (because, yes the automated operators drive me crazy). Anyways, they cancelled all of the subscriptions and said they would refund my money within a couple business days.
So, they have said that they were going to fix the problem. I still dont agree with charging someone without notice or consent, but as long as they fix it-- thats all I really care about. I guess
mistakes/misunderstandings happen, although it seems like this company has had quite a few.

A Political Limbo Tests Arafat's Fortitude
By DEXTER FILKINS
Published: January 12, 2003
RAMALLAH, West Bank, Jan. 10 — Around and around, hour after hour, Yasir Arafat circles the desk in his office, waiting for the world to come back to him.
Confined to his compound, ignored by the Americans, Mr. Arafat has grown so frustrated, aides say, that he has taken to long bouts of indoor exercise, beginning with laps around his desk.
"He walks around his table for hours, long into the night," said Nabil Shaath, a longtime confidant and the Palestinian Authority's minister for planning. "He goes around and around and around."
So it goes for Mr. Arafat, 73, once the father of an emerging nation and now an aging pariah waiting for others to decide his fate. With the Americans preparing for a possible war with Iraq and the Israelis engaged in a nationwide election campaign, Mr. Arafat has entered an unusual holding pattern. For the first time in his long career, he finds himself not only ignored by the region's most powerful players but pushed from the center of the action.
The omens for Mr. Arafat do not appear good. Although his popularity among Palestinians surged when he came under siege by the Israelis, recent polls show that the support has plummeted to its lowest level since he took control of the Palestinian Authority. The Bush administration says it is determined to help build a Palestinian leadership without him, and Israeli leaders are preventing him from carrying out the very reforms they are insisting on.
Indeed, more and more, certain Israeli leaders appear to be imagining a future without Mr. Arafat at all.
"You know what we should be doing with Arafat?" Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli foreign minister, called out to a crowd of supporters in Jerusalem last week. "We should be doing to him what they're doing to Saddam Hussein — getting rid of him."
The Israeli crowd whooped and clapped.
With such torrents swirling about him, Mr. Arafat has decided to lie low and wait for the political landscape to change, his aides here say. With time, the aides say, Mr. Arafat believes that his confinement to the ruins of his compound here will end and other players will again decide that they need him, as they have done so often in the past.
"He is waiting for the storms to pass," said Ghassan Khatib, the Palestinian Authority's minister for labor, standing in Mr. Arafat's sandbagged office a few days ago. "For now, he is not making any big fusses, but that is temporary. Ultimately he will regain his role," Mr. Khatib said.
The result is a kind of political purgatory, where the images border on the surreal: Mr. Arafat presiding over a meeting that his own delegates have been prevented by the Israelis from attending; American diplomats meeting Mr. Arafat's deputies, but not the man himself; Mr. Arafat issuing statements denouncing suicide bombings, without his name attached. Mostly deprived of sunlight, Mr. Arafat's visage has turned a sickly white.
"It's hard, but I'm used to it," Mr. Arafat said of his confinement during a brief interview on the steps of his compound. "I'm just working."
Indeed, these days, Mr. Arafat spends much of his time meeting minor dignitaries and foreign officials, most of whom are unlikely to have a say over his future. One night last week, he appeared outside his office, surrounded by a retinue of aides, and pointed out the ruins of the compound to a Japanese member of Parliament.
"This was destroyed, but we rebuilt it," Mr. Arafat said, standing with his visitor, Tara Kono. "This was destroyed, too." With that, Mr. Arafat and his aides turned and strode back inside.
The immediate source of Mr. Arafat's decline is President Bush's speech in June, when he announced that the United States government would not support an independent Palestinian state until the Palestinians got rid of Mr. Arafat. That speech had followed waves of suicide attacks against Israeli civilians, some of which, American officials said, could be laid at Mr. Arafat's feet. Mr. Bush called for a process of reform to overhaul the Palestinian Authority, the very organization that is Mr. Arafat's life work.
But Palestinian experts here say that Mr. Arafat's current predicament goes far deeper than the events of the past year and has as much to do with his failings as a leader.
Khalil Shikaki, a respected Palestinian pollster, said the popular uprising that began here 28 months ago was aimed as much at the Palestinian Authority for its failure to deliver good government or to block expanding Jewish settlements as it was against the immediate effects of the Israeli occupation. After the Camp David peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians collapsed in 2000, Mr. Shikaki said, many Palestinians concluded that Mr. Arafat could no longer guarantee peace, either.
"Arafat failed to deliver what most Palestinians expected," Mr. Shikaki said. "As far as the Palestinian public is concerned, Arafat is no longer the unchallenged leader of the Palestinian people."
For now, Mr. Shikaki and others say, much of Mr. Arafat's energy is engaged in holding off challengers within his own organization. While many of Mr. Arafat's rivals share his views toward Israel, others have aligned themselves with militant Islamists who have conducted suicide bombings against Israelis.
"We are continuously fighting an ideological battle within the organization," said Mr. Shaath, Mr. Arafat's confidant. "If Arafat were gone, there would be no restraint."

The model has no formfield method, so it consequently shows up as a non-validating text input. This is not desirable.
I've attached a patch to have it use the django.contrib.localflavor.usa.forms.USStateSelect Field, but there also appears to be a bug there with the init method of the newforms field, so I'll file a separate bug for that one

I don't think this is a good change to make. The field should be validating already (it has a "clean" method), so I'm not sure what you mean by non-validating. It's reasonable to have it show up as a text field so that people can just quickly enter their state (either as an abbreviation or word).
If you want to use the !USStateSelect widget, you can pass that in as part of the constructor (all Field subclasses take a widget parameter). So the current behaviour is reasonable and it can be customised to taste in the normal way.

How did you come up with LOs name?
with DD i just always loved the name Hailey DIane. Her middle name is my moms middle name and her great great aunts first name.
with LO it was going to be Lauryn Brynn for the longest time. When we found out we were having a girl, we changed it to Madalyn Paige. DH thought of madalyn before we were trying. So Madalyn stuck. No real meaning for her middle name except it just went well
~~ One&Done 3/20/12 ~~
Creepy hugger extraordinaire
Sage was the name of a pony I knew as a kid. heh.. I loved the name from then on. One of my characters in a game I play ended up getting named Sage as well.. So that led to talking about names. I mentioned to dh that I loved the name Sage, and wanted to use it on a future child. He agreed it was nice, and so we used it later on.. almost two years after talking about it the first time. We already have other names picked out if we have another boy or girl. hahaha

jacob was the only name dh and i could agree on, and i heard kyler on one of my favorite episodes of beavis and butthead.
follow me: tsu | wanelo | twitter
you make the whole world wanna dance. go baby, go go!
I originally got the name Penny from "The big bang", but I decided last minute that I wanted her name to be more professional for when she got older.So we went with Penelope, but ALWAYS call her Penny. lol Her middle name is Anne after my Mom who passed away.
Lo is Conner because my fave teacher was mr. Conner and I like the name. James is his middle name because it's every males middles name in my dh family.
Not so "New" anymore.. just a mamaoffour
kyra came from the stephen king movie bag of bones. thought it was cute lol. and her middle name brooke is just cause we liked it
I bf, use gerber baby food, vaccinate my babes, and dont erf. dont like it??? Then kiss this and I dont mean on my rosy red lips :)
I knew dh wanted to honor his father by naming his first son after him, but I'm not a fan of the big john/litlle john, john jr etc so we decided on jack since that's what he was called. (I pushed for Jackson, no dice :-/)
so jack is named after his grandfather and great grandfather.

How to Read and Use a Histogram
Here's a good, pretty simple video on how to use that crazy histogram on your camera or in your photo editing program.
Many people say to "shoot to the right" which means lean towards a lighter exposure, which would have that hump nearer the right side. (this applies to RAW files that you will post process and not as much to jpgs) This is generally a good idea as opposed to making a darker exposure because you'll get a cleaner (less noise and artifactings) image if you have to darken it some rather than lighten up the shadows/darks. In digital cameras, there's usually more image data available to recover in the lights than the darks. Just don't go too far and actually blow out the whites or block up the blacks, because you can't recover that at all. It will just turn light or dark gray depending on which way you went too far. You can go past the right end of the histogram a little bit (though you can't tell how far) and still recover some of the highlights, but that's just something you'll have to experiment with to see how much you can recover with your particular camera and RAW processor.

LEGO is a medium with which virtually anything can be built - oceans, landscapes, ships, castles, spacecraft and more. But now that you've created that great set for your brick flick or comic, you might be thinking, "What about the sky?". Yes, you could build a big blue wall and various clouds and celestial bodies to attach to it, but maybe you don't have enough bricks, or maybe you just don't like the way that looks, and you would prefer the simpler look of a sky and its atmospheric effects created in photo-editing. This will be done in this lesson using Adobe's Photoshop.
- You'll need to know how to use your camera and how to take a crisp and well-composed photo with it. Photoshop is a terrific piece of software, but it can't completely fix an image that's out of focus, blurry, significantly grainy, poorly composed, or otherwise lacking. If you want to know, I shot my photos for this lesson with an entry-level DSLR, the Nikon D-3100, with a basic 18-55mm lens and an exposure time between two and six seconds and an aperture of f13.
- You will of course need Photoshop. This lesson was written using Photoshop CS5 Extended, but the techniques should work with other versions, though I have no experience with them. (I do know that the only features that CS5 Extended has and CS5 does not are 3D tools and image data analysis tools - you won't need them for the editing described in this lesson, so if regular CS5 is what you have, you're fine)

We are supported by an impressive 1500+ active members around the world.

"Mike Pyle came in there mumbling that he trains and does grappling and wrestling, but he was never asked if he speaks English or not. Cheick Kongo, who was mumbling shit in half French, wasn't asked to clarify his English speaking skills. The only athlete that gets asked that 20 minutes after he had been speaking English is a guy named Adekunle Muhammed Lawal. I wonder if she just couldn't pronounce his fucking name so she decided to come out of shape. Whatever her intentions were, they were unprofessional, they were uncalled for, and he shouldn't have to swallow it...This is a bigoted woman who thought she was gonna bully people around... My problem or my grief is with an athletic commission commissioner; a woman that is supposed to be enforcing adequate professionalism is sitting there 20 minutes into a goddamn interview singling out the only person in there that had a weird fucking name and she asked him if he speaks fucking English after 20 minutes of talking to him. To me, that's unprofessional, uncalled for, and unacceptable. That's it. What Dana White wants to do and who he wants to fire and call or not call himself, that's somebody else's problem because it's irrelevant," stated Mike Kogan, manager of former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion King Mo Lawal, who had a lot to say about what happened at yesterday's hearing with the Nevada State Athletic Commission and the events that led up to King Mo's release from Strikeforce. Check it out!
PC: I will try to have you repeat as few things as possible since all of this has gone down, so first I will ask you, how is King Mo handling all of this; the fines, the suspension and the release?
MK: Mo is doing alright. He is disappointed. Obviously nobody wanted the day to end the way it did. We thought things were bad when they gave us a $40,000 fine and 9-month suspension, but shit got real when his comments came up and subsequently he was cut, so not a great day to say the least; very disappointing day. But hey, whatever; it is what it is.
PC: I know Mo has some health issues to deal with, but now that he is released from his Zuffa contract, is it possible for us to see him fight in Japan before the 9-month suspension is up, or possibly apply for a license in another state and try to fight?
MK: Is it possible? Yes. Would he necessarily do it? I mean, we live in the United States and the commissions here are very respectful of one another in honoring each other's decisions. If an athlete is from the United States, I feel that he should uphold the suspension and live out the suspension until September, and then he could go fight wherever he wants to.
PC: When she initially asked the question if Mo could read and speak English, you brought up a good point in saying she didn't ask Mike Pyle the same question, and I've heard from several sources he kind of mumbled his way through the process. How did the questions initially strike you?
MK: First, I was a little confused. I was like, "Is this woman asking if this man speaks English?" And then she went on and said, "Can you read and write in English?" I'll be honest with you, I was in shock. I really was. I was like, "This woman just asked this man if he can speak English in the middle of a fucking hearing, after he had been speaking to her for 20 minutes already answering all of these questions." I understand that she is a trial attorney, so she might be used to that line of questioning when it comes to witnesses. I wish this was a goddamn trial. I wish there was a judge and jury. I wish we could present evidence. I wish we could bring in experts and I wish we could have upheld the same standards that a trial would have upheld. Then we would have been in a lot better shape. Then she could have asked him if he speaks English, Swahili, Nairobi, and take DNA for all the fuck I care because we would have had a lot more to show and a lot more to prove. But we sat down in front of a commission, who basically judges on their own and makes a decision on their own. They look at facts, yes, but ultimately, when you sit down in front of a commission, you're guilty and the only way you can prove yourself or even give circumstances is if you can prove 20 people held you down and shoved the pill up your ass or something. That's the only way you can do it. The point I'm making is if she wanted to hold this hearing up to the same standards of a court of law as a commissioner, then she should probably make some motions to change the proceedings that will make it more to follow the procedures that go on in a court, and have a panel or jury or due process or somebody else that we can talk to. But none of that happened, so her stance was completely uncalled for. So trial attorney or not, as that may well be, she is a commissioner and her job is to be professional and not biased, and if she's asking Mo Lawal to be professional and be responsible for what he puts in his mouth, then she should take responsibility for what comes out of hers.
PC: Mo went down there out of respect for the commission and to also give his side of the series of events that took place, but he went under great duress because he's not physically well.
MK: Yeah, the last thing that Mo needs right now is to fly around and go to the commissions. If there were some other motions or some other athletes that were being asked to do things, and the only one that showed up really was Mike Pyle because he already lives in Las Vegas. We felt that it would be disrespectful to the commission to discuss the issue of default and we wanted to face them face to face, so we flew up there. And in the beginning of the hearing, the chairman of the commission, and I don't remember his name, but the chairman of the commission established that Mo understood the proceedings, understood the charges against him, understood what he has legal rights to and what he doesn't, and all of these kinds of things, so for the commission to say this is standard procedure, we always ask all of our athletes if they speak English and if they can read and write English, I would imagine if this is something that you establish at the beginning of the procedure, that it is true for everybody. Now, Mike Pyle came in there mumbling that he trains and does grappling and wrestling, but he was never asked if he speaks English or not. Cheick Kongo, who was mumbling shit in half French, wasn't asked to clarify his English speaking skills. The only athlete that gets asked that 20 minutes after he had been speaking English is a guy named Adekunle Muhammed Lawal. I wonder if she just couldn't pronounce his fucking name so she decided to come out of shape. Whatever her intentions were, they were unprofessional, they were uncalled for, and he shouldn't have to swallow it. If you have some reporter say one crooked word about Dana [White], he comes out with a B-line saying the dude is a fucking moron and an idiot and he should be never allowed to report anything again. And for Mo to just sit there and accept this and swallow it is uncalled for. I wasn't asked if I could speak English. Why didn't she ask me? I was speaking there too on Mo's behalf, so if this is a matter of procedure that they make sure everybody there speaks fucking English, how come nobody asked me if I speak fucking English?
PC: You would think you would have been asked because the context in which it was asked to Mo was regarding him signing the supplement waiver in which you admitted to filling out, so you would think she would ask you or at least ask both of you guys.
MK: Yes! I said I filled it out. She goes, "Yes, both of your signatures are here. Mr. Lawal, do you speak English?" How come nobody asked me if I speak English? You just said both of our signatures were on the paper? "This is a matter of procedure." No, this is bullshit. This is a bigoted woman who thought she was gonna bully people around because that's what the fuck they are doing is bullying people around because you're gods. Well, fuck her because I won't be bullied around. Don't bully me around. I show you respect, you show me respect.
PC: Speaking of disrespectful, I thought it was pretty bad for Dana White to ignore your text of simply saying, "We would love to tell you our side." Instead, he instructs Sean Shelby to call you guys and release you from your contract. When Forrest Griffin tweeted something he didn't agree with, he called Forrest and got his side.
MK: We don't have a relationship with Dana White. He's never called us for anything. He has a relationship with Forrest Griffin and they have each other's phone numbers. If you remember the last time Dana White made a reference to Mo, he said, "I don't know who this Mo Lawal is, but he needs to keep his mouth shut," or something like that. I don't remember quite what it was. The truth of the matter is, and I have said this in previous interviews, it's their company and they run it however they want to run it or see fit, and I don't have a problem with it, and neither does Mo. If they see fit to release him, then that's fine too and that's just the way that things are. My problem or my grief is with an athletic commission commissioner; a woman that is supposed to be enforcing adequate professionalism is sitting there 20 minutes into a goddamn interview singling out the only person in there that had a weird fucking name and she asked him if he speaks fucking English after 20 minutes of talking to him. To me, that's unprofessional, uncalled for, and unacceptable. That's it. What Dana White wants to do and who he wants to fire and call or not call himself, that's somebody else's problem because it's irrelevant. I don't really care.
PC: Obviously the main thing is getting Mo healthy right now, but what's the process? Are you entertaining calls for him now or do you wait 'till he's healthy to present him to people and organizations?
MK: The man's gotta earn a living and I don't see us going back to Zuffa anytime soon. I see a lot of people have made a reference to Alistair Overeem being cut and then being resigned. I don't think that's going to happen. I mean, we had a Zuffa contract. Once you get cut, what are you going to do, get cut from one Zuffa contract and then make you sign another one? It's ridiculous. So we have already had calls coming in and people are interested. We're going to talk it out. Mo will be ready to fight in 6 months, so there is no reason to sit around and wait until after he's healthy. The man's gotta eat. Let's not forget he has medical bills that piled up to the ying yang that he's gotta pay for out of his pocket, so things aren't great right now.
PC: Yeah, this definitely hasn't been a good year, but there are so many contradicting situations that have been going on within this organization lately.
MK: You know, like I said, the only thing I want to comment on is her unprofessional comments that were uncalled for, and in my and Mo's judgment, very racist. He's faced these kinds of comments in the past and he knows how they were said. And if you were sitting there and you were looking at her with her smug face and her "I am God" condescending attitude, you would have known what she was saying. She got a little carried away and there is nobody there to smack them on the hand. They are the gods. so that doesn't mean that I have to take it or Mo has to take it. And if the consequences are getting fired or getting cut and spending the rest of your life fighting for $2,000, that's fine, but if the flip side of it is to become a house nigga and hop up and down and give it to you up the ass, then fuck that! I'll take the other alternative.
PC: You have been in this game for a long time. You have seen a lot of things. Have you ever had a crazier 24 hours than you did yesterday?
MK: Dude, I cannot remember a single MMA fighter being fined $40,000 for a goddamn dehydrating pill, first time offense with 10 years in wrestling being tested by every goddamn organization there is since 2003, and the man tests positive for Drostanalone, which is a useless drug for a mixed martial artist, especially somebody like Mo, and to not take anything into consideration and hit him with a $40,000 fine, it truly is ridiculous. With that being said, it is within the stature of what they are allowed to do. It's just a matter of judgment call and I'm not gonna speculate on that because the truth is the supplement was found in Mo and we were ready to accept the worse, and that was actually the worst case scenario; we just thought that we would have a little bit of a better outcome, but we didn't. So I'm not gonna comment on that because I don't know if anyone has been fined that kind of money in mixed martial arts, so whatever. It is what it is, but that does not give her the right to sit there and make these kinds of comments that were completely unnecessary, completely out of context and irrelevant after 20 minutes of speaking English. It's ridiculous. I don't care what their explanations are, that doesn't change the fact that it was inexcusable. It's a bunch of garbage. After 20 minutes of hearing him speak English, she didn't realize that he speaks English? She needs to get a fucking hearing aid because it's just retarded.

"I am delighted to say that our conference poster on 'Strengthening healthcare knowledge exchange ties between Scotland and Zambia' was selected for display at this year's NHSScotland Event, which is Scotland's annual health services conference."

Download the HIFA-Zambia Press Release 12th April 2011
HIFA-Zambia was launched on 5 May 2011, at the Zambia-UK Health Workforce Alliance annual meeting at the British Medical Association, London, UK.
HIFA-Zambia is the only global e-mail forum on health issues in Zambia. It aims to raise awareness and share best practice on health issues and initiatives in Zambia. The intended audience of HIFA-Zambia are all individuals, from anywhere around the world, who work and/or contribute to and/or are interested in health issues and initiatives in Zambia.
Why HIFA-Zambia?
We need HIFA-Zambia for at least 3 reasons:
1. There is no alternative global e-mail forum on health in Zambia. An e-mail forum is a cost-effective way of increasing awareness of health policy in Zambia, enabling dialogue and the sharing of best practice. It is also expected to add value to face-to-face meetings or conferences on Zambian health issues in Zambia and around the world.
2. The member organisations of the Zambia-UK Health Workforce Alliance and other organisations working on health in Zambia, have repeatedly expressed the need for a communications platform to discuss and raise awareness of health issues and initiatives in Zambia in order to increase effectiveness and efficiency.
3. HIFA2015 is a global-level network and based on some of the forum's discussions and topics, have identified that there is increasing demand to explore more in-depth networking of this type at a country level.
Also, in line with the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness and the Accra Agenda for Action, the diversity and large number of health initiatives in Zambia supported by bilateral, multilateral, national Civil Society Organisations or International NGOs, creates need for coordination and harmonising in order to facilitate the accountability of all those involved on health in Zambia.
HIFA-Zambia aims to bring together all organisations and individuals worldwide with an interest in health in Zambia.
How does it work?
HIFA-Zambia is administered jointly by the Zambia-UK Health Workforce Alliance and the Global Healthcare Information Network/HIFA2015. HIFA-Zambia and HIFA2015 work in the following ways:
1. HIFA-Zambia contributes to efforts to raise awareness on health issues and initiatives in Zambia, in line with the Zambia UK Health Workforce Alliance's vision, as well as contributing towards the HIFA2015 goal of health information for all by 2015.
2. HIFA-Zambia and HIFA2015 share a common methodology (Reader-Focused Moderation) and email platform (Dgroups)
3. The co-moderator of HIFA-Zambia, Vanessa Halipi, liaises with the moderators of other HIFA Global Networks: HIFA2015, CHILD2015, HIFA-Portuguese and HIFA-EVIPNet.
4. HIFA-Zambia is facilitated by the HIFA-Zambia Working Group in parallel (and linking) with the existing HIFA2015 Steering Group.
5. HIFA-Zambia has its own email discussion platform, supported by the Dgroups Partnership.
HIFA-Zambia members
HIFA-Zambia currently has more than 300 members in 23 countries (click on the graphic below to enlarge – the size of each circle represents the number of members in each country):
HIFA-Zambia discussions
Here is a list of some of the topics we have discussed on HIFA-Zambia:
HIFA networks in other countries
HIFA-Zambia is the first country-level e-mail network associated with HIFA2015. HIFA2015 aims to adapt and replicate the approach in other countries.
Zambia UK Health Workforce Alliance
The Zambia UK Health Workforce Alliance is a growing network of Zambian-based and UK-based organisations. They work together to promote and improve the coordination and impact of Zambia-UK joint work in health. The Alliance's aim is to support the Government of the Republic of Zambia to implement its plans to increase and develop its health workforce and its health systems. The Alliance was launched in 11th June 2009 in London, UK. There over 40 member organisations.

Gavin McColl, On Call Africa, UK
"I would like to sincerely extend my heartfelt thanks to HIFA-Zambia, Mr Andrew Walker and Mrs Glenda Mulenga Sight Savers of Zambia for the overwhelming service that happened in less than two weeks. Through Mr Andrew Walker emailing HIFA members about the twinning of Swindon and Livingstone, Mrs Glenda Mulenga initiated the cordination of sight activities in our area in Mpongwe through the Ndola hub at Ndola Central Hospital. The Ndola team travelled to Mumba Day care centre in Mpongwe which is over 100 kilometers on Tuesday the 8th of May I am pleased to say 98 people were examined, several had eye infections, sight challenges and 5 with more serious eye problems were taken to Ndola central hospital on Tuesday itself, were operated on on Wednesday, rested on Thursday and were driven back to Mpongwe with sight restored and medication supplied!"
Hildah Mulenga, National Director, Mumba Children's Project and Mumba Day Care Centre, Mpongwe, Zambia
"I really like the forum – its such a fantastic resource and there are so many topics there relevant to the work of On Call Africa."
Malcolm Spence, Vice Chairman of On Call Africa
"Thank you HIFA-Zambia, you are enriching my life with wonderful contacts!"

From the 1920s to the 1940s Constantin Brancusi was preoccupied by the theme of a bird in flight. He concentrated not on the physical attributes of the bird but on its movement. In "Bird in Space" wings and feathers are eliminated, the swell of the body is elongated, and the head and beak are reduced to a slanted oval plane. Balanced on a slender conical footing, the figure's upward thrust is unfettered. Brancusi's inspired abstraction realizes his stated intent to capture "the essence of flight." This particular conception of "Bird in Space" is the first in a series of seven sculptures carved from marble and nine cast in bronze, all of which were painstakingly smoothed and polished.
"Bird in Space" has broken the world auction record for a sculpture in 2005 by fetching $27,456,000 at Christie's New York to an anonymous buyer.

William Eggleston's great achievement in photography can be described in a straightforward way: he captures everyday moments and transforms them into indelible images. William Eggleston: Democratic Camera, Photographs and Video, 1961-2008 presents a comprehensive selection from nearly fifty years of image-making.
Born in 1939 in Sumner, Mississippi, a small town in the Delta region, Eggleston showed an early interest in cameras and audio technology. While studying at various colleges in the South, he purchased his first camera and came across a copy of Henri Cartier-Bresson's book The Decisive Moment (1952). In the early 1960s, Eggleston married and moved to Memphis, where he has lived ever since. He first worked in black-and-white, but by the end of the decade began photographing primarily in color. Internationally acclaimed and widely traveled, Eggleston has spent the past four decades photographing all around the world, conveying intuitive responses to fleeting configurations of cultural signs and moods as specific expressions of local color. Psychologically complex and casually refined, bordering on kitsch and never conventionally beautiful, these photographs speak principally to the expanse of Eggleston's imagination and have had a pervasive influence on all aspects of visual culture. By not censoring, rarely editing, and always photographing, Eggleston convinces us of the idea of the democratic camera.
Exhibition: William Eggleston: Democratic Camera Photographs and Video, 1961—2008, Whitney Museum, November 7 – January 25, 2009
The Eggleston Artistic Trust is dedicated to the representation and preservation of the work of William Eggleston.

The modern home is the perfect venue for displaying tribal art. A recent auction of the collection of Frieda and Milton Rosenthal, at Sotheby's yielded a very rare and significant sculpture.
This Wooden figure from Easter Island (one of the most remote islands in Polynesia, some 2000 miles from the nearest landmass) representing emaciated, sometimes almost skeletal, men locally called Moai Kavakava are named after moai for the monumental monolithic human figures found on Easter Island and the word kavakava meaning "ribs". Little is known about their cultural context.
Moai Kavakava are said to represent spirits or ghosts (Aku Aku) as well as deceased ancestors. German Expressionist Max Ernst, was inspired by these figures and their rituals and they can also be found in the collections of the French surrealist André Breton.
Moai Kava Kava, Sold at auction, $ 614,500 USD, at Sotheby's New York, USA
While Designing Alila Villas Uluwatu, the architects wanted to create more than the usual stereotypical ideas of Bali, creating a design that worked with the dry Balinese Savannah vegetation and gently sloping site, not against it. The 14.4 hectare development offers three-bedroom contemporary Balinese villas for sale, as well as a hotel for those on holiday in Bali.

Bruce Munro's iconic Field of Light sculpture is now installed at the Eden Project in Cornwall. The piece can now be seen on the sloping grass roof of the visitors centre, called the Link building, between the famous Rainforest and Mediterranean Biomes, and will remain there until Spring 2009. The sculpture first came to widespread public attention when a scaled-down version was exhibited in the Pirelli Garden at the V&A in 2004.
Bruce Munro and five assistants worked over three days to install Field of Light at the Eden Project. It is made of 6,000 acrylic stems, through which fibre optic cables run, each crowned with a clear glass sphere.

After wasting 4 hours emailing each other, Admin at Timber Lodge closed off our communications for the evening with a refusal to have any further communications with me, because they had turned over my account to Monterey Collections for legal action and Admin claimed their contract with the collection agency prohibited any communication with me whatsoever. After 4 hours of never answering my questions and wasting my time and theirs, that was Admin. way of terminating any further contact. If that was really the case, why didn't Admin. defer me to the collection agency at 2:00 PM instead of 6:00PM? I repeatedly gave my phone number to them and pleaded that they would call me, but Admin continued sending emails to me and never called me. I think Admin. is either very shy of has laryngitis. Why else would we spend 4 hours sending emails back and forth, instead of answering one incoming phone call that would have only taken 3 to 5 minutes to answer my questions.
Such bazar behavior raises the hair on the back of my neck and confirms my suspicion that Timber Lodge RV Resort has very poor customer service and poor bookkeeping pracitices. I'm a member now and that is how I am treated. Before I joined in 2007, the sales dept. was very convincing that I would have a wonderful experience as a member of their organization. Since I have joined I have called a numerous times, but always with the same out come. THE ANSWERING MACHINE!!!, AND NEVER A RETURN CALL. What is the point of having a phone if you don't use it?
In conclusion, if you want any communication with Timber Lodge RV Resort and are a member, you can contact them at email@example.com. Keep the email to just one question and keep it simple. Admin will answer your email and maybe even your question. Admin answered my emails, but never got around to answering even one of my questions and now I have been forbidden having any further communications with the Admin. Why would anyone with common sense subject themselves to such treatment? I am just an idiot and I admit it, otherwise why try to resolve this mess!!!

The angle of choice for many of the papers seems to be the supposed spat between manager Roberto Mancini and goalkeeper Joe Hart after the Italian was informed of his stopper's post-match comments to television.
After watching his side lose 3-2 despite being in front with four minutes to go Hart said: "It's not on. You can't go 2-1 up and lose the game. We can only blame ourselves. They are a very good team and so are we. We dug deep, got a lead twice and threw it away. It's hard to come off the field after losing 3-2 and be positive."
Mancini though felt that Hart shouldn't be assessing the team's performance in such a way: "Joe Hart should stay in goal and make saves. If anyone should criticise the team it should be me, not Joe Hart.
"I am the judge, not Joe Hart."
This led to predictable headlines across the papers: "Hart Attack" was the choice of both the Daily Mirror and The Sun; The Guardian went with "Mancini slaps down Hart over 'we threw it away' verdict"; while the Independent's back page says: "Mancini has swipe at Hart after Ronaldo stuns City."
When you actually watch the video of Hart's interview he actually comes across quite admirably as a man who was gutted to see his team lose, but such can things be spun to make a story.
To elsewhere and The Sun has reported that Wayne Rooney is back in training with Manchester United and could even be in line for a place on the bench against Galatasaray tonight.
Rooney was expected to out of action for two months after gashing his right leg against Fulham on August 25 but the Sun says the striker will "almost certainly be available for Sunday's showstopper with Liverpool."
The Daily Star picks up on reports from Spain that Southampton could surprisingly dump Nigel Adkins – the man who has led them to back-to-back promotions – and replace him with former Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez.
"Saturday's 6-1 capitulation to Arsenal - coupled with the disappointing home loss to Wigan - is likely to have left chairman Nicola Cortese concerned about the Saints' ability to compete this season," reports the Star.
"With Benitez keen to return to England, Spanish newspaper AS reports that the St Mary's outfit are considering turning to the 52-year-old."
The Mirror claims that Newcastle's Tim Krul is a target for Spanish giants Barcelona.
"Dutchman Krul has emerged as one of the best keepers in the Premier League and Barca want long-term competition for, and back-up to, first-choice Victor Valdes," the paper says.
"Coach Tito Vilanova has ordered his scouts to find him a top class replacement and Krul has received favourable reports."
Mark Robins looks to have seen off a late challenge from Michael Appleton and seems sure to be named Coventry City's new manager in the next 24 hours. (Daily Mail)

Boro bid rejected
No, its because you have only played half the games we did last year, and you didnt travel to Rome (renowned as the worst hooligan element in Europe!!). Spaeaking to the locals in Rome after the trouble and they had nothing but praise for the Boro fans!
As you werent at the games you mention, you arent qualified to talk about them so dont!!!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
A Yahoo! User Dec 12, 2006 06:22 Flag
Your talking utter rot there mike.
If Rome is such a bad place for football hooigans, then why do millions of people visit Italy on a yearly basis?
Newcastle played Palermo just a few weeks back and their fans have a right bad old reputation, yet the Geordies had no trouble.
Stop arguing for the sake of arguing, I've read quite alot of your posts, and in all honesty you talk rubbish most of the time as it is.
Your one of these people if someone has a 6 foot wall, you'd say yours is 10 foot!

Like i said, you werent in Rome n probably havent beent to see your team in Europe anyway , just commenting on hearsay and tabloids!
As for millions visiting Rome, how many are there for a football match??( a small percent!) and as for Palermo having a reputation, if they have it hasnt been in the news as much as Roma has, Namely the stabbing of 2 lazio fans before a match last season AND playing behind closed doors in Europe for crowd trouble!!!
I dont give a #$%$ about the crowd trouble, but #$%$ like you that pin it down on boro fans when you arent even there at first hand should just get on with the troubles at your own club!!
This is starting to look like handbags at dawn!!!!!
Just for your information, up until wembley was knocked down, the Boro fans were rated as the best behaved at any time of any cup finals by the Met police, which is something that the geordies didn't even get a mention about, except in the arrest report.
Anyway if you can't handle the critisism then don't keep posting things that you know will upset people, i know most Boro fans give as good as they get. My sisters ex husband was a geordie fan, you note how I said 'ex'? She finally came to her senses :-)

Native plants are perfect for Earth Day
Every year on April 22, people all over the world celebrate Earth Day. This day was designed to make everyone aware of ways to protect and enhance our environment.
One way to honor Earth Day in central Florida is to place native plants in our landscape settings. These plants are best adapted to our environment and will thrive with less frequent watering and fertilizer applications.
Using native plants will help preserve the natural beauty of Florida while creating a natural habitat for wildlife. You will also find it much easier to care for plants that are adapted to our tropical climate.
Many people like the idea of planting trees on Earth Day. In central Florida, we have a variety of native trees to choose from that will work in most landscape designs. The laurel oak is used in both commercial and residential landscapes. These trees thrive on wet or dry planting sites and grow fairly quickly.
If you want to bring native birds and animals into your yard or garden, consider planting a live oak. These oaks produce acorns that are an essential source of food for animals. The live oak is also the nesting site for the Florida scrub jay. Adding trees to key areas in your yard can also reduce your energy usage. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends homeowners place trees and vegetation around their homes to reduce air condition usage and decrease air pollutants.
Vines add interest and color to any outdoor area. Common greenbriar is a native evergreen vine that will climb on a wall, tree or trellis. This vine also produces attractive yellow-green flowers and tiny red berries year round in our growing area.
Virginia creeper is also an attractive native vine that works well in any landscape setting. Many people remove this vine from their yard by mistake because it looks similar to poison ivy, but Virginia creeper has five leaflets instead of three. Virginia creeper is especially lovely just before fall, when leaves turn red just before dropping.
Native Florida wildflowers can provide a smattering of color throughout your entire landscape setting. Tropical white morning glory is one of the fastest native growing flowers. These plants produce white funnel-shaped flowers that are as aromatic as they are attractive.
If you want a bit of blue and purple around your yard, consider native flowers such as Dixie iris, American bluehearts and Sky-blue lupine. Red and orange flowers really draw attention to your landscape. Firewheel, Scarlet milkweed and tropical sage are all drought tolerant and attractive to butterflies.
There are a few things to keep in mind when selecting plants and trees for your yard. Choose your trees first and plant them. Consider the size of the tree at maturity, the amount of available sunlight and the location of power lines before planting. After you have your trees in place, select herbaceous plants. Be sure to be aware of which plants are sun-loving and which thrive in partial shade.
If you want to design an outdoor setting that will attract wildlife, choose plants that provide food and shelter. Creating diversity is the key to bringing birds, butterflies and wildlife into your landscape. It is also important to consider plant toxicity, especially if you have children and pets. Before purchasing any plants for your yard, check to see if they are poisonous if eaten. Small children, kittens and puppies can be curious enough to nibble plants before you can stop them.
Adding some native plants to your yard or garden is a great way to improve our Florida environment. We can conserve water, reduce energy consumption and eliminate the use of dangerous pesticides and fertilizers.

With nearly 4000 square feet of living space this just completed luxury home has plenty of 'Island Living' space for everyone.
The large wrap around decks and the 4th level 'Crows Nest', with a 360* view of the island,are just some of the bonuses to this fabulous home. Bayfront views of the intra coastal waterway are endless! Rise early for breathtaking sunrises or relax and watch the boats cruise by!
The 4+ bedrooms are spacious,comfy,and all feature custom heavenly beds. All bedrooms have LCD TV's with cable, private bathrooms and access to the outside decks with awesome views.
A beautiful open floor plan makes a great space for the living room with a fireplace, dining area, and a large beautiful modern kitchen with a wrap around breakfast bar for entertainment.
Open the doors to the lanai and dine or relax overlooking the large patio area with a heated pool and spa. All screen enclosed for beautiful year-round enjoyment. Sun, swim, dine or relax in this great space.
The large recreation room off of the pool area features a LCD TV with cable, a 12 foot shuffleboard table, a foosball table, a bar area with seating, a queen sleeper sofa, and a large full bath. An elevator services all floors for your convenience.
Beautifully landscaped and decorated with a lot of love by the owners, Lazy Palm is perfectly located in the 'Village Area'. You are truly a block from everything. The beach, shopping, dining, waters ports, a gym and more, but on a quiet little street with views of the bay and only a 5-6 minute walk to the beach!
Lazy Palm has everything you could want for the perfect island vacation!!
Keywords: House
We are a family from Pigeon Forge Tennessee that grew up in the Fort Myers area and have always loved Capitiva! Weekends were always spent boating to this island because of its 'Island Feeling' and beautiful private beaches. We eventually want to retire in this home so when we decided to construct it in 2007 we put in all the special features desired in a private home. We hope you enjoy our home as we do!!
Kathy Rodriguez purchased this house in 2009
We chose this location because of it's beautiful and private beaches. Captiva is also known as the #1 shelling beach in North America and my wife is a 'Shell Lover'.
You can enjoy a tranquil setting in the 2 & 1/2 story screened in Pool enclosure with a waterfall heated spa. The pool deck is large and has both shaded and sun areas for everyone. The entire first floor is a gameroom with a 12 foot shuffleboard table, foosball table, bar area, family room with large screen LCD television and DVD player, and a full bath. There are also 3 levels of decks offering both shaded and sunbathing areas and even a rooftop sundeck for the ultimate water view.
Dream come true. Stayed in this unbelievable home. It has everything you can think of. It was truly heaven on earth. The elevator made it possible for me to go and stay there, there's no way I can do steps. The home, beach and all the local bars are so welcoming. This is so much better then getting 5 hotel rooms where they have nothing you need and you can't even find a place to set on the beach. If you stay here it has everything and there's room for 10 to sleep, party and enjoy the pool.this has to be the best place I've ever been on vacation. Can't wait to go back.
We rented this magnificent home for our girl's getaway reunion week. We were looking for a home that was spacious enough to accommodate all of us women but it also had to have plenty of bathrooms! This home certainly exceeded our expectations! All the bedrooms had private baths (5) and there was another half bath on the 2nd floor. It was equipped with an elevator which was wonderful to bring up our luggage and groceries (which certainly saved our backs and knees). One of my favorite parts of the house was the crow's nest on the roof. We would watch the beautiful Captiva sunsets at night and bring our coffee up with us in the morning for the amazing sunrises. There are golf carts and bikes so you can go shopping, ride across the street to the beach or go to dinner. You can operate the golf carts on the roads in this area of Captiva. We only drove our cars one night during the entire week and that was to go to Sanibel for dinner. If we weren't at the beach sunning and shelling, we were at the house pool and spa swimming and relaxing. We are already planning our next trip in September and would not stay anywhere else nor are we interested in looking anywhere else. Everything was just perfect! The home is magnificent!
This amazing home was the site of our reunion . Some of us girls had been apart for over thirty years. This home provided us tons of space and privacy yet at the same time the intimacy we all needed! Absolutely a amazing space beautifully decorated every need anticipated. Not doing well with stairs the elevator literally made my vacation I could save myself for beach walking. The game room and pool area was our hang out and the upstairs porch morning coffee and late night girl chat. So much room to play games or just walk around. Being older my bed is so important well don't worry I wanted to take theirs home with me if that tells you anything! Location was perfect growing up in the area and living there forty odd I know. It's on a quiet street yet seconds from all the happenings and golf carts come with! It was perfect just glorious and we are doing it again the year!! Counting the days to spend a fabulous girlfriend week at the Lazy Palm.
This was just perfect for our family. Our two daughters and their husbands flew into Ft. Myers from Dallas along with our little grandson. Each couple had a bedroom with a private bath and our grandson also had his own room. My husband and I live on the east coast of Florida so met everyone at the house. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a perfect Thanksgiving dinner. We rented the golf cart which made transportation to the beach so easy. The home was immaculate. Also decorated perfectly. The downstairs game room gave us so much to do playing shuffle board and ping pong while our little one slept. Pool was warm and inviting, Walkng to the Bubble room, Mucky Duck, and other restaurants was no more than five minutes. Did a dolphin boat tour out of South Seas Plantation and even before we left the dock there was a dolphin playing in the marina. The beach, which was no more than a five minute walk away was family friendly. The home also offered all the beach chairs, pails and shovels, umbrellas, beach towels you could possibly need. We are all daydreaming about coming back next year if our schedules can be coordinated. Cannot say enough about this lovely home. Oh! Just remembered.....there is an elevator which we thought we would never use but it made getting our suitcases, groceries and ourselves up and down the three plus flights perfect. And to top it all off, ther is a lovely crows nest off the master bedroom on the fourth floor which is a wonderful place to enjoy your morning coffee or stargaze.
From the moment we entered the foyer, this incredible home welcomed us. What a beautiful design. Fantastic kitchen, dining room, living room & porch galore. Elevator to carry your luggage, groceries and tired folks up to the 3rd floor. The 4th level is a captain's look-out where we greeted each day at tree top level with the birds of the morning. Tucked amidst ferns, foliage and palm trees, we were totally at peace. We spent a lot of relaxing time in the warm pool and spa, hidden away from the road. Yet we were close enough for a stroll to the beach or restaurants. But most of the time we stayed in - Lazy as a Lazy Palm. Awesome week - Thank you Kathy!!
We picked the Lazy Palm to have a girls reunion. From the moment you open the door you can see the care and thought that went into this home. The decor is brilliant. The furniture so comfortable you don't want to get up! The elevator was a huge blessing not only to bring our suitcases and supplies up, but also for those of us that has a hard time with stairs. The views are simply amazing! From the top 'widow's walk' we viewed the beautiful sunrise every morning. From here you can see the Gulf of Mexico and also the bay side! In the evening we used the golf carts and drove to the beach to watch the spectacular sunsets! The (optional) golf carts are a must to have. You can take them any where on this area of the Island, from the beaches to shopping to dinner. (We recommend Doc Ford's for both appetizers, drinks and lunch or dinner.) Also for fine dining a short drive to Sanibel to Casa Ybel's for dinner. Our mornings started off with breakfast in the large kitchen that has everything you will need! Then off to the beach just down the street! And the Gulf of Mexico is so nice. The sugar sand is perfect for sun bathing, the beach one of the greatest in the world for shelling. And we even got lucky and observed a Mama and baby porpoise playing just a few feet from shore! One day 2 of us actually went parasailing! What a thrill, mark it off the bucket list! Then back to the house to swim in the beautiful pool with spa! We watched football on the large screen TV! Each bedroom is tastefully decorated (as is the whole home) and has it's own full bath! We couldn't have asked for a better place for our reunion! The owner Kathy was so pleasant to work with! Not only do I highly recommend this house, but we have already reserved it for next year! You will not be disappointed. This house has it all!
Captiva is a beautiful quaint island and small village. There are no high rises and the beaches are fabulous and uncrowded. The wild life is awesome with dolphins, manatee, turtles, and birds. We are located so that you can walk every where or enjoy our optional golf cart. Shelling is some of the best any where.
