The Email system here croaked for most of May 12. If anyone sent me a message regarding BIG ANTENNAS, please try again. I also missed Randy's message about 100W contests. Seems to me that 100W would be reasonable for domestic contests, but I can't imagine trying to work anything on 40SSB with 100W in a DX contest, or anything long-path. That 10 dB means a lot when you're only a few dB out of the mush. If all the big guys turn off their amps to operate with 100W in the 93 SS, what happens to the little guns who don't own amps? Seems like their chance to compete goes away. Or are there really a lot of competitive operators who don't own amps? DG

GP Harmon acquires plastics recycling company
GP Harmon buys plastics recycling facility, deepens non-fiber commitment
By Editorial Staff, Resource Recycling
One of the country's largest fiber brokers, GP Harmon Recycling, has acquired a plastics recycling facility in Elizabethton, Tennessee from the Highlands Group.
The acquisition represents a significant investment in GP Harmon's non-fiber operations and capabilities, fitting into what president Marc Forman called [1] the "long-term, strategic investments" of the company.
In additional comments to Plastics Recycling Update, Forman discussed how the company's background in the paper industry will translate to the non-fiber industry: "The non-fiber business offers us an opportunity to apply some of the strong capabilities we have developed in our paper business, such as procurement and trading. These are areas we have been working on diligently over the last few years, and are key success factors in the non-fiber arena."
The Elizabethton facility processes an estimated 12 million pounds of recyclables per year. The operation is aimed at separating polymers from mixed streams of material to create raw plastics materials for commercial use. "We believe it brings a tremendous new opportunity with the potential to expand in the future," Forman said of the facility.
A subsidiary of Georgia Pacific, GP Harmon is based in Jericho, New York and employs approximately 185 people across the country. It is one of the largest buyers and sellers of fiber in the recycling industry, and in 2007, the company expanded into the non-fiber and metals sector. It currently transacts more than 100,000 tons of non-paper recyclable materials globally, according to the company website [2]. A campaign to promote the company's expanding non-fiber operations includes the tagline, "More than paper."

The Official Chess.com/TV Group Blog
Now that the Kramnik/Aronian match is over and the 4th Chess.com Deathmatch has come and gone, things will start getting back to normal around here, if there is such a thing.
Beginning this Tuesday and ending Thursday afternoon (obviously, not non-stop of course) comes the three main-stay shows of Chess.com/TV, starting with the show that started it all, Your Games Analyzed (YGA).
YGA will begin Tuesday, May 1st, at 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern/6 PM London time amd will be open to Platinum/Diamond members. The show will be hosted by GM Magesh Panchanathan, who has quickly become a fan favorite among the chatters during the show.
Wednesday's show, open to ALL Members and is hosted by IM Danny Resnch, open to ALL Members, begins at 1 PM Pacific/4 PM Eastern/9 PM London time. For those of you who want to take part in Danny's 10-game LIVE Chess simul, this is your chance if you haven't had it before.
Thursday's show, Pardon our Blunders, hosted by both IMs Danny Rensch and David Pruess, begins at 11 AM Pacific/2 PM Eastern/7 PM London time. This show is open to Platinum/Diamond members and is formed like an "ESPN Pardon the Interruptions" TV Show, debating on current topics in the chess world.
So get ready for a 3 fastball-strikes coming right down the pipe this week on Chess.com TV and always remember the rules of the Chess.com/TV Room.
I will be doing recaps of each show in the blogs, so look for those after each show respectively.
Have a good night/day all!
Co-creator of the Official Chess.com/TV Group and Chess.com/TV Chat Room Moderator
Derived: Come to the show about 10 minutes before it actually starts, and once Danny says he's open for Challenges, go to LIVE Chess, click the Games tab, then Players tab, and right click on his name: ACEChess, and challenge him to a 15|30 rated game. It'll be up to him whether he accepts the challenge or not because he usually gets at least 20-30 of them per show.
So how does one apply for the live simul?

ANN ARBOR -- A month ago, we outlined a few positives, a few negatives and a few question marks for the Michigan football team.
At that point, Michigan was still unbeaten, but it had just gone through a pair of really alarming wakeup calls against Akron and Connecticut. At the time, the Wolverines were hoping those two near wins would be their rock bottom in 2013.
Well, they were wrong.
Since then, Michigan's gone 2-1 and it won't enter the most brutal stretch of its schedule with the perfect 7-0 record it very well could have had.
But it's not all doom and gloom. Michigan enters its second and final bye of the season with a red hot quarterback and a tweaked offensive scheme.
So let's reset -- the good, the bad and the "what now" for some of the biggest factors on this football team moving forward.
Devin Gardner
The good: 2,299 total yards, 21 total touchdowns
The bad: 10 interceptions, 13.5 carries per game
What now?: Gardner is, at this point, what people assumed Braxton Miller would be when the season began.
He leads the Big Ten in total offense, and it's not even close. In fact, he's produced 577 yards more than the next-closest person on the league's total offense list (Indiana's Nate Sudfeld) through seven games.
He's been Michigan's best playmaker, Michigan's touchdowns leader and its most explosive weapon.
But, he's also failed to curtail his turnover problems. And he's already taken a lot of extra hits to his body as the Wolverines' failed running game has forced Michigan to turn to Gardner's legs more and more.
Right now, Gardner's hot. He was great in the second half against Penn State two weeks ago, and he set a school record for passing yards (503) and total offense (584) last week against Indiana.
But if you boil it all down, Michigan's lone loss this season -- at Penn State -- was almost directly due to Gardner's pair of careless early interceptions. Turnovers that setup Penn State inside the 20, and led to 14 free points in what was an eventual 3-point four-overtime loss.
For Gardner, it's real simple: If he cuts out the turnovers, he's an All-Big Ten quarterback. He's everything Michigan thought he could be moving forward. And he's the player that helps push the Wolverines into the Big Ten title game in Indianapolis.
If he doesn't? Well, Michigan's looking at at least two more losses, and maybe more. They can't give possessions away like this anymore. Gardner's last six quarters have been terrific -- he's gone 30 of 43 for 656 yards and four touchdowns.
If he keeps up that pace, Michigan is difficult to beat. If not? Well, you already know that answer.
Offensive line
The Good: Well? We're sort of still waiting.
The Bad: Zero consistency inside, youth everywhere, shaky confidence
What Now?: Maybe I was too harsh in the "good" category. One positive to be taken away here is that, finally, it appears Michigan has -- for now -- found a group of five offensive line starters.
True freshman Kyle Bosch looked very smooth in his first game last week at left guard. Erik Magnuson held the rope, so to speak, doing nothing that egregiously cost the team on any given play.
Taylor Lewan, Michael Schofield and Graham Glasgow continue to do what they do, but until Michigan's guards become more consistent, running the ball between the tackles from power formations really isn't an option.
Michigan's offensive line struggles have been well documented. And it will be harder to get worse than a 30-carry, 28-yard running back performance that occurred two weeks ago at Penn State.
The Wolverines have also played nine different offensive linemen so far this season -- that's almost two full units. Nothing has really stuck.
While Gardner's turnovers ultimately hold the key to how far this team will go, they do so in concert with the offensive line's progress moving forward.
The offensive line doesn't have to be dominant. Forget about that. Gardner's good enough, so is Jeremy Gallon and Devin Funchess. They don't need them to blow people 10 yards off the ball every play.
But they need them to be competent. That's what Michigan really needs here, if we're being honest. These guys have to be competent.
And, so far, they haven't been. Was the Indiana game an indication of where this group's headed? Or, was it smoke and mirrors against a brutally bad defense?
Good thing for us: We don't have to wait long to see how far they've come.
Michigan State's defensive line will be quite a test.
The secondary
The Good: A lot of guys are getting experience, and Michigan has intercepted 11 passes
The Bad: They're not finishing plays, U-M is ranked No. 97 nationally in pass defense.
What now? Brady Hoke and Greg Mattison haven't really been able to crash down hard with criticism because, well, these guys have been in position for the most part lately.
But they're not finishing. At all.
Channing Stribling was victimized twice in the final minute of regulation at Penn State on a brutal last-second 80-yard touchdown drive. Stribling and Lewis were beaten on similar situations Saturday against Indiana -- they were where they should have been, they just couldn't make the play.
Raymon Taylor was also guilty of this against Indiana, dropping an interception on one play and then failing to get the signals from the sideline on another.
The long and short here: Michigan's defensive backfield isn't talented or athletic enough yet to make fundamental errors. Technically and fundamentally, these guys have to be extremely disciplined.
They have to be in position, and for the most part they have been. But, they've also got to make more plays.
I wouldn't hit the panic button just yet on these guys. But they have to start finishing plays.
This team, in general
The good: They're 6-1
The bad: They gave away the Penn State game
What now? Is this team good enough to win the Big Ten?
We'll find out soon enough, beginning when the Wolverines head to Michigan State on Nov. 2.
As it is now, Michigan has already given away a game that could haunt it for the rest of the year. The Wolverines, even with all their mistakes, had Penn State beaten about four times two weeks ago. And they still walked out of there with a loss.
Michigan was a more talented team than Penn State. It should have won the football game. But it didn't. And it can't get it back.
That loss puts a lot more pressure on the Wolverines moving into November. In reality, Michigan might have to run the table the rest of the way or at least go 4-1 to find its way to Indianapolis.
That means wins at Michigan State and Northwestern, and home against Nebraska, are extremely critical now -- and there's little room for error with Ohio State waiting at the end of the year.
Remember, Michigan State doesn't have to play Ohio State. Neither does Nebraska. Northwestern's basically done, and that's unexpected. But the Wolverines have work to do.
The Wolverines have been wildly inconsistent this season, but they are talented. There's no doubting that. Michigan has the skill players to put up points against most teams, if it limits mistakes.
The defense has been beaten up over the last two weeks, but when it's dialed in -- it's good enough to get to Indianapolis.
But can it be good enough every Saturday? Can the offensive line be competent? Can Gardner's turnovers go away?
Michigan's shot at a Big Ten title isn't as good as it was during the first bye week a month ago.
But it's not exactly dead in the water either.
It's gut check time now. Time to see what this group's really made of.

GRANBY – "The more things I'm involved with, the more I focus on my schoolwork," says Sarah C. Krulewitz, 17, a senior at Granby Junior-Senior High School.
Krulewitz, who this year qualified for the second year in a row to perform in the All-State Concert of the Massachusetts Music Educators Association at Boston Symphony Hall, was explaining how she manages to keep her grades high while participating in so many activities.
She is a member of the National Honor Society, vice president of her school's Student Council, and student representative on the Granby School Committee.
As an athlete, she has competed on wrestling and soccer teams. She worked backstage on the Granby Arts Project's March production of "Into the Woods."
She is also president of a community service group called HOPE, which stands for "Helping Out People Everywhere." It's a student group that has done everything from raising money for cancer research in the Relay for Life to collecting jeans for needy kids in the national Teens for Jeans program, she said.
Then there's her French horn. Krulewitz has been playing it since fourth grade, and she said it will continue to be part of her life when she goes away to college.
"It's just different from anything else in the band," she said. "It's a very beautiful sound if you have the right tone and intonation."
Krulewitz played in the all-state orchestra last year and the all-state band this year. The Music Educators festival also includes an all-state chorus and all-state jazz band.
Krulewitz was one of 516 young musicians who qualified this year. Almost twice that many tried out.
The festival ran from March 1 to 3 this year. Krulewitz arrived in Boston on a Thursday and practiced with her fellow musicians at the Seaport Hotel for two days. On the day of the performance, she said, she got up at 4:30 a.m.
There's no trophy to take home at the end of it, but Krulewitz said that's not the point. "Just being able to play at Boston Symphony Hall is so amazing," she said. "It was really great to perform with other people who have the same passion for music."
Greg A. Williams, music director at the Granby Schools, said the auditioning process for the all-state event began in October, followed by qualifying rounds at the UMass Fine Arts Center in December and Shrewsbury High School in January.
Krulewitz is only the second student from Granby to play in the Music Educators all-state concert festival, said Williams.
The other? Her older brother, Andrew Krulewitz.
He sang tenor in the all-state chorus in 2005. He also plays the French horn – and that, says his little sister, is what inspired her to start playing.
Granby Junior Senior High School senior Sarah Krulewitz makes the most of her time
on May 01, 2012 at 8:00 PM
GRANBY – "The more things I'm involved with, the more I focus on my schoolwork," says Sarah C. Krulewitz, 17, a senior at Granby Junior-Senior High School.

I read on collision detection the other day that on the average, people only have 375 songs stored on their mp3 device, with iPod owners having a slightly larger average at 504 songs. While it's still impressive that about two hundred CDs fit in a tiny hand-held device, it's still a small percentage of the number of songs that could be stored on the bigger capacity mp3 players and iPods. With an upper-end 20,000 song capacity, don't you think most people would have at least 2,000 songs on the average, or about 10% filled? Not so, according to this report where they surveyed 1,062 people who own digital music players. Fascinating!
Along these lines, it sounds like our forecast about infrastructure monitoring using BMC Performance Manager is on track. You don't necessarily want to monitor everything under the sun including whether the kitchen sink is draining properly. You only want to monitor a set of parameters that matter to your business. Like the "most played songs" marker on your iTunes library, a "most monitored parameter" marker is what you seek when you set up your library of infrastructure and application monitoring parameters. What do you think? Simpler, fewer, and more targeted seems to be the way to go. Plus, connect the monitoring activities to business services and business applications that matter to your bottom line.
From the iPod to the Infrastructure and Application Management Route to Value and back again in two paragraphs. I'm no James Burke but I sure admire his Connections. Although I had a really hard time reading Twin Tracks, where the book layout has one story line written on the left-hand pages and the other story line written on the right-hand pages.
So, how many songs are on my iPod? I have the 512K iPod Shuffle, and it contains over 100 songs, which puts it at "full." Based on capacity, I'm making the most of my investment, right? Or perhaps I just don't have time to listen to more music than that. 🙂

Rohou interprets Dynamis as an orthodox tragi-comedy that reflects both the political concerns of the late 1640s and the developments in dramaturgy which had taken place over the previous decade or so. Rohou is most helpful in pointing out, in footnotes and a brief glossary, differences between Du Ryer's language and modern usage.

Bitch, T.O
Syke x3
(Shout out my Jungle niggas)
I know what you love, you know I know what you like, right?
Syke x3
Toronto's hardest working MC and producer Rich Kidd premiered "Syke" on XXL yesterday, the first single off his upcoming solo mixtape In My Opinion. The hard-hitting track produced by Rich Kidd himself is the perfect primer into's his upcoming project and, as stated by XXL, a "display of swift lyricism and brash production, which shows his abilities continue to impress." With a video from Rik Cordero on the way and the release of In My Opinion slated for April, fans and critics can expect a lot more from Rich Kidd this year.

[quote:Anonymous Coward 31853839:MV8yMTIyNDk3XzM1ODE4NjM4Xzc2RURBMTQ3] The Powers That Lie (the human rulers of this planet) know full well that reincarnation is a fact. Why do you think they are unafraid to die? What they do not know, however, or what they refuse to acknowledge (or perhaps what they believe they have somehow outwitted) is that God sets the agenda, the limit, and the ultimate outcome. They have been deceived by demons into believing they will re-incarnate forever into bodies of their choosing. In this, they have been lied to for thousands of years. Hell is not empty. [/quote]
Original Message
From book: "I have lived before" by Sture Lonnerstrand
Quotations from the Bible
Several Bible quotations indicate the the belief in reincarnation, at the time when Jesus appeared on earth, was generally accepted among the Jews. Here are several quotations:
Jesus asked his disciples: "Who do men say that I, the son of Man, am?" (Matthew 16:13)
The disciples answered: "Some say that you are John the Baptist: some Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets."
If it was not for the fact that reincarnation was generally accepted in the Jewish culture, Jesus would hardly have asked the question in that manner.
Observe that Jesus asked who the people believed he was, not if he had lived before. He took for granted that everyone knew about prior lifetimes.
Another famous remark (John 15:17) which is ascribed to Jesus is as follows:
"You shall bear witness for you have been with me from the beginning."
The beginning must have been alluded to the first words in the Bible, "In the beginning..." It was a question of a rather long period of time.
In another passage (John 9:2), the disciples asked Jesus:
"Master, who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
This question implies, that for the disciples it was quite natural that the man had been inflicted with a handicap due to the fact that he had sinned in an earlier life. It could not have happened in the present incarnation, as he had been blind since birth.
St. Clement of Alexandria stated that the teachings of reincarnation had been authorized by the apostle Paul himself. In a letter to the Galatians (Galatians 6:7) Paul says:
"Be not deceived, God is not mocked: for whoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Paul knew that everything a person sows during an earthly life cannot possibly be reaped during the same lifetime. Sometimes God mills grind slowly
Paul's successors have not, as far as is known, ever questioned the Law regarding sowing and reaping, or the Law of consequences, as it is called.
However, to this day, one has apparently overlooked the fact that Karma and Reincarnation are two sides of the same coin. Reincarnation is not possible without karma and karma cannot function without reincarnation.
There are other places in the New Testament as well as in the Old Testament that suggest reincarnation but they are less known
Elijah and John the Baptist
The Bible's prime example regarding the truth of reincarnation is clearly shown by Jesus himself. The Old Testament and the New Testament come together in an extremely interesting manner when the prophet Elijah, who according the account in the Old Testament (II Kings 2:11) "... went up to heaven in a chariot of fire." (Malachi 4:5)
The New Testament attaches great importance to the question regarding the rebirth of Elijah and has consequently, taken up the subject in several places:
In (Luke 1:17) "Elijah's spirit and power" is talked about, which in the body of John the Baptist would come before the Lord.
In the gospel according to Mark (Mark 9:11) the disciples ask: "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?" Jesus answers them that Elijah would indeed come first to restore all things (Mark 9:12)
In Matthew (17:12) Jesus is quoted as saying: "But I tell you that Elijah has already come..." "Then disciples understood that it was John the Baptist he was speaking to them about. (Matthew 17:13)"
In Matthew (11:14-15) Jesus is clear as crystal about the baptist's earlier identity. "And if you are willing to accept it,
he is ELIJAH
, the one who has come." He then adds so that there can be no doubt about it:"Whoever has ears ought to hear."
Can it be said more clearly?
Jesus has with all these words, once and for all established the truth of reincarnation.
"Whoever has ears out to hear!"
The teachings of reincarnation, although still rejected, are nonetheless an important part of Christian heritage, a cornerstone of original Christianity, and a basis of original picture of Christianity throughout the world- in a similar manner that the belief in reincarnation has always been in the oriental religions.
It's important to ascertain that the belief is repeated earthly lives is in no way in conflict with central Christian motives. Its more likely that the teaching of reincarnation strengthens the Christian message, making it more complete, more genuine and more credible.
Many people have wondered how it is possible that Jesus, Christianity's central figure, can still be denied and be so fragrantly misunderstood by his own followers, by his own churches regarding such an important and fundamental question concerning what happens to us when we die.
Its an enigma which remains unsolved."

Overview (4)
|Date of Birth
|10 July 1980, Dallas, Texas, USA
|Birth Name
|Jessica Ann Simpson
|5' 3½" (1.61 m)
Mini Bio (1)
Jessica Ann Simpson was born July 10, 1980 in Abilene, Texas, to Tina Ann (Drew) and Joe Truett Simpson, a psychologist and Baptist youth minister. She grew up in Richardson, Texas, living a normal childhood. In church, she was able to shine, using her gifted voice to attract an independent record producer. This producer was the first of many to see the potential for greatness in Jessica. However, because of the lack of finances the independent label went bankrupt, preventing Jessica's album from reaching wider audiences.
Although heartbroken, Jessica's dream to be on the radio remained. With support from her family, and her father's managerial talents, Jessica's independent album managed to work its way to Tommy Mottola's desk, then President of Columbia Records. He was won over by her "pure heart" and strong voice. Jessica's singing career with Columbia would take her all over the world many times over and include three major albums reaching Gold, Platinum, and double Platinum.
As a born performer, it was only natural for Jessica to spend more time in front of the camera both in television and feature films. Audiences were naturally drawn to her open and uncensored attitude, contributing to the success of the reality television series Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica (2003), which she starred in alongside her then husband Nick Lachey. She followed up the show by making the choice to fill in the famous "Daisy Duke shorts" alongside Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott in her debut performance in the film version of The Dukes of Hazzard (2005).

The meanness tax will further impact the profits of such disrespectful TV shows as "Married…With Children," "Saturday Night Live," "The Simpsons," and "In Living Color," while radio stations carrying known hatemongers such as Howard Stern immediately will be hit with a $35-per-listener surtax. Funds also will be gathered at the local level, as policemen will be told to write $50 "Public Churlishness" tickets and slap them on the windshields of any cars carrying a bumper sticker reading "Nuke the Whales" or "Screw the Snail Darter." Police also will be instructed to write $35 tickets to anyone who disturbs the peace by saying things such as, "This country is starting to resemble
How much money will be raised by such an ambitious program? The Census Bureau estimates that 10 percent of the U.S. population is flat-out nasty, another 12 percent is pretty damn mean, and an additional 40 percent says something like "The hell with the endangered manatee!" or "No new taxes!" at least once a week. By the most conservative estimate, in the first year the program is in place, the Clinton Administration will raise $215 billion in anti-meanness taxes. So if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. Hillary is watching. Hillary is listening.

Ricky Martin Would've Come Out Sooner, But He Loved Keeping It a Secret And Watching You Squirm
Tuesday isn't just your chance to watch Christine O'Donnell hopefully disappear from the national arena — it's only your chance to watch Ricky Martin say more than 140 characters about his sexuality. Popping up on Oprah the same day he releases he new book and single, Martin's already-taped interview will dish about things like "when he knew" (answer: always); why he decided to come out (it was a decision long in the making); and whether he's dating anybody now (yup). But what secrets is he sharing in his book Me?
How about the first time he dated a dude? A blog found a review of an advanced copy of the book:
El Nuevo Dia shares passages in which Martin describes his first romantic relationship with a man with a "radio journalist and DJ from Los Angeles" – So Ryan Seacreat. "We met at a radio station and from the moment we saw each other it was like a great encounter between souls, at least for me. I was traveling out of Los Angeles and went to the station for an interview. The moment I opened the door to the studio, I found myself face to face with the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen," narrates the Puerto Rican singer in his biography.
The relationship occurred at the end of 1993 when Martin was about to join the cast of "General Hospital" and ended some time later when the couple realized that it couldn't survive Martin's constant touring. Martin says he offered to end his music career and perhaps let the world know he was gay but says that his partner was the one who convinced him that he should not cut his career short even if it meant and end to the relationship.
Martin apparently also puts to rest a question repeatedly raised by gossip magazines when it comes to his current domestic situation: He indicates he does not have a current partner and is raising his children on his own.
He also only addresses his relationship with Mexican news anchor and actress Rebeca de Alba – a relationship that played out in public for some time even as rumors swirled around Martin that he was gay – without directly mentioning her name.
Martin also acknowledges he played up a hetero image, or at least refused to come out of the closet, because he thought it would end his career: "Socially, there are so many prejudices against homosexuals that I thought nobody would understand me, that I'd be rejected, since those are the codes I heard and learned as a child. So since my adolescence, when these desires I first began to manifest themselves, I had to deal with this great conflict between my emotions and my thoughts." And then when, in his 30s, he began feeling more comfortable about sharing his secret? Martin says by that point, he got off on keeping it a secret. Smarmy!
I can see what he is trying to say at the end. It's like being the coolest kid in school and every girl wants to have sex with you kind of feeling. As he knows he is gay and not out, as gay rumors about him are common, all those hot gay men out there think they have a shot. Pretty hot.
I have to say that i'm disappointed with him for releasing a romantic duet with a female singer as his first single after coming out. Seems like he is going down the obvious route and "neutralizing" his sexuality to appeal to the masses.
@Red: what u wanted him to do a duet with a man??
Ricky did a duet with TWO men (rumored to be gay) Wisin y Yandel.
Leaked demo:
@alejandro: Why not, that would be awesome!
Who cares? It's his business what he does, not ours.
On the day he sent out an e-mail announcing, "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man," Martin says he first felt "numb" and then "relieved."
Then, he said, the magnitude of what he'd done hit him.
"When I realized, okay, I just pressed send, whoo … I was alone," Martin, 38, says. "I was in my studio alone for a minute. My assistant walked in and I just started crying like a little baby. I started crying."
I actually understand that "I got off on keeping it a secret" comment. Almost like the pleasure you can get from knowing youre someones fantasy
I completely understand getting off on keeping it a secret. For me it was almost fun at the same time that it's incredibly painful.
Why tease his way out of the closet? Career in a dry patch, time to write the autobiography.
@Cam: The world is full of people who hate your and Ricky's guts just for being gay. Don't forget that.
Do you really believe that we don't need gay celebrities writing and talking about their life, love and kids?
@Cam: Exactly. Funny how they only come out when they are has-beens with the bulk of their money-making days behind them. Funny that.
@MM: Oh hush. Burp.
Why would you say that? None of the men who came out in the last 5 years careers are over.

But, after doing some research I am wondering if this could be the way to go for me, until I can afford a live grand and until I get my current piano fixed. What vsti's do most of you use and are there any good ones for free? This is very intriguing and need some advice. The main problem is that I don't have all 88 keys on my clavinova yamaha, will that effect anything? Any advice and links would be a great help. Since I don't really have a very private place to record as well, this may be something I would be interested in trying. I've been searching but don't really know how to use it or which one I should. Thanks

People in Washington County and around the metro area have responded during the past two weeks with hands-on assistance and donations to help flood-stricken residents in Vernonia.
The small community was devastated by the wind and rainstorm earlier this month. Rivers poured over their banks, streets temporarily turned into canals, and some homes were bombarded with four feet of mud. Some of the waterlines exceeded those of the 1996 floods.
Help came in many ways from many sources:
Students in Forest Grove schools are collecting canned goods, household goods, money and other items to help flood victims. The Forest Grove School District has also offered help.
Real Life Christian Church of Cornelius took a group of about six volunteers last week to help clean up flood damage. The church's effort was part of a larger statewide group of churches that sent more than 200 volunteers.
Emmaus Christian School in Cornelius closed its doors Dec. 7 and all 43 students, along with teachers and parents, traveled to Vernonia and Gaston to help clean mud out of homes and remove ruined furniture and clothing. "Hearing about the devastation around us is troubling," said Emmaus principal Tim Welch. "But when the students realized real people they knew suffered high waters in their own living rooms, it made it real, and they really wanted to do something about it."
Staff members of the Bonnie L. Hays Small Animal Shelter in Hillsboro teamed up with workers at Cat Adoption Team of Sherwood to donate 4,000 pounds of pet food to flood-stricken areas in Oregon. The donations were handled by the American Red Cross.
The Forest Grove Chamber of Commerce took its Holiday Decorating Team utility trailer to Vernonia on Dec. 7. The trailer contained clothes, water, cleaning products, food and dry goods. The chamber's executive director, Teri Koerner, also reported more than $700 in donations for the Columbia County Flood Victims Unmet Needs Committee. "We got a chance to visit with several of the volunteers and city staff that were very touched by all of the support they have received," Koerner said.
The Northwest Regional Education Service District is coordinating requests to other school districts in Oregon for loans or donations of specific textbooks and instructional materials, according to Darcy Rourk, the district's personnel officer. The district has received donated warehouse space to accommodate replacement furniture donations for Vernonia schools.
Superintendent Ed Serra of the Clatskanie School District is handling donations of food and clothing for Vernonia residents. To donate or for details, call the district at 503-728-0587.
Parr Lumber put on a free barbecue in Vernonia on Dec. 13 and invited anyone who was hungry to come. Parr employees held signs by a street to advertise the lunch to passing motorists and people. It was an all-you-can-eat affair, with hamburgers, hot dogs, sides and beverages.
The following groups are taking donations:
Donations for Oregon flood relief through the American Red Cross may be made by calling 503-528-5634 with a major credit card number available. Online contributions may be made at the Red Cross' Oregon Trail Chapter Web site www.redcross-pdx.org
The Vernonia Cares Food Bank is accepting food donations until further notice at Columbia County Food Bank, 474 Milton Road, St. Helens. The food bank has run out of space at its current location because of generous donations.

Argh. This show is so frustratingly post-modernist. There's very little real debate allowed, and the host is obviously pro-faith. People in Britain are just way too concerned with not hurting people's feelings.

Atheism isn't a belief!

sure it is, it's the belief that there isn't a god.
that shouldn't make it a religion though, since then there would be an unlimited number of religions for an unlimited number of things that we don't believe in.

LONDON, April 10, 2012 – JWT London, the advertising agency behind some of the UK's best loved ads, has created a new fundraising mechanism which aims to make charitable giving part of people's everyday lives.
Engraved wooden blocks branded HOPE can be picked up in shops and scanned at the checkout along with the rest of a consumer's shopping. A £1 donation is automatically sent to the Alzheimer's Society, the leading UK care and research charity for people affected by dementia, and first to sign up to JWT London's new initiative.
Having made a £1 donation at the checkout the wooden block is then returned to the shelf to be used again. The aim is to target consumers when they are spending money, but at the same time make the process continuous and more convenient than existing methods.
On the back of the wooden blocks, which are made from Forestry Commission approved wood, is an explanation of how HOPE works: 'Pay for this at the till. Your £1 goes to help people affected by dementia.' The Alzheimer's Society logo is engraved on the blocks and there is also a barcode which can be scanned at the checkout. There will also be explanatory posters used in-store.
HOPE will initially take up substantial shelf space in two Budgens stores in Crouch End and Belsize Park, which are both situated in North London. All money raised will be given to the local branch of the Alzheimer's Society.
HOPE will be trialled in these two stores with the view of expanding the scheme.
Joseph Petyan, Executive Partner at JWT London, said: "We are immensely proud of HOPE, an initiative we believe will revolutionise the way people think about making a charitable donation. The aim is for HOPE to become a part of people's everyday lives and something as regular as buying everyday grocery items."
Jen Moseley, Community Fundraising Manager at the Alzheimer's Society, commented: "We're always looking for innovative and quirky new ways to raise money and the HOPE initiative does just that. The great thing about this scheme is that shoppers can choose to donate a small but vital amount of money in an easy way, simply by taking the block with the rest of their groceries to be scanned at the check-out."

NASA's plans to send astronauts back to the Moon and, ultimately, to Mars raises an important sartorial question: What ever will they wear? The zero-gravity spacesuits that astronauts currently don when leaving the shuttle to manhandle satellites and other large objects won't do when it comes to walking around the surface of a planet for hours at a time. "The biggest issue is mobility. On a planet surface, they'll have to walk, move and bend," says Lara Kearney, program manager for advanced extravehicular activity (EVA) suits at NASA's Johnson Space Center. Planetary suits will also have to be lighter. The shuttle suits weigh in at just more than 100 lbs with their life-support backpacks. Even when contending with Mars' lower gravity, that kind of weight would impose a big burden.
And because planetary missions will last longer than a shuttle flight, the next generation of spacesuits will also have to be more robust. Kearney predicts that planetary suits may have to hold up for a hundred or so outings between major maintenance teardowns. The zero gravity shuttle suit, by contrast, gets an overhaul after four or five uses. Making maintenance matters worse, both the Moon and Mars have dust problems. Both are covered with dust ranging in size from something like a fine talcum powder to something like coarse sand. On the Moon that dust is "about as abrasive as glass," notes Joseph Kosmo, one of NASA's senior engi-neers for advanced spacesuits.
In preparation for our next big leap forward in space, NASA engineers recently asked two makers of the soft portions of the suits, ILC Dover and D. Clark Co., to come up with prototype planetary suits. The two prototypes intentionally take slightly different approaches to creating lightweight, mobile suits that can still function as pressure vessels. Kosmo stresses that neither of these prototype suits should be considered ready to go. "We don't have a Mars suit yet," he says. "What we do have is a group of technologies that we hope will be useful on Mars."
Yet even in their current form, the prototype suits do offer some engineering lessons for engineers who work on earthbound products. Look at ILC's I-Suit for a case in point. Cutting-edge materials and smart mechanical design of the suit's rotating bearings reduced some of the usual trade-offs between strength, weight, and flexibility. "In our world, high strength and mobility usually conflict with one another," says David Graziosi, ILC's lead design engineer for the I-Suit. "We've managed to minimize those conflicts."
That spacesuits have to work in extreme environments should come as no surprise. What may be less obvious is that these high-tech garments also have to withstand significant structural loads. "Our structural loads are a lot higher than many engineers would expect, especially from fabrics," Graziosi says.
He breaks these loads down into three classes: Pressure loads consist of the axial and hoop stresses that result from inflating the suit to 4.3 to 8.3 psi, a range that covers its operating pressure on the low end and its proof pressure on the high end. Next come "isometric manloads" or forces the astronaut exerts from within the suit. These forces can result from actions as simple as locking the knees or trying to squeeze into a glove that's too smallor what NASA calls a "negatively sized glove." Finally, there are "satellite loads" that result from astronauts manually handling large objects in space. Zero gravity aside, these objects "still have plenty of mass and momentum," Graziosi points out. And since astronauts tend not to let go of expensive space equipment without a fight, significant strain forces can be transferred through gloves and foot restraints into the rest of the suit.
These three kinds of loads can add up. The wrist joint on shuttle suits, for example, has to endure an 860-lb load during a push-out test. The finger crotches of the glove have to hold up to slightly lower forces. And Graziosi says in worst-case scenarios the satellite loads on the suit can even approach 2,000 lb. On top of all these forces, ILC designs the suits with a safety factor that's two times the ultimate load. It's true that as a planetary suit, the I-Suit might be able to get away with a less robust structural design, but Graziosi notes that ILC designed the suit to accommodate loads similar to the shuttle suit, "even though NASA didn't require it."
Balanced against the need for structural strength, the I-Suit has to allow enough mobility for walking and working on Mars. For ILC engineers, this requirement translates to minimizing the torque required to move the joints through various ranges of motion that NASA specifies (see table). Even though the suit mostly consists of fabric components, satisfying the torque requirements is tricky. As Graziosi explains, flexible fabric quickly turns rigid when inflated to the suit's operating pressures. And the structural restraints that help tie the suit's various components together likewise grow taught under pressurethink of them as bridge cables rather than shoelaces.
Less Torque, More Strength
Since the first Apollo spacesuits that ILC built in 1961, the company's engineers have approached the torque problem in two ways. They've added gores, convolutes, pleats, and other fabric features that make the taut fabric easier to bend. They've also come up with sealed rotating bearings for the wrists, arms, shoulders, waist, and hips.
Rather than taking an entirely new tack, the I-Suit features refinements to both these hard and soft joints, and it permits lower torque movement than any of the company's previous suits (see chart). According to Phil Spampinato, ILC's manager for space systems, some of the torque improvements have even become so fine that they exceeded our ability to feel them. "You wouldn't always be able to tell the 'before' from the 'after'," he says. But the elimination of even the tiniest "torque risers" adds up. "You end up with a suit that gives crew members the ability to work for longer periods of time," Spampinato says.
Historically, the drive toward lower torque and higher structural strength has come down not just to mechanical design but to materials selection as well. Structural webbing has evolved from nylon during the Apollo era to polyester on the first shuttle suits.
A few years ago, the shuttle suits incorporated Spectra. This long-chain-polyethylene fiber offered three to four times more tensile strength than polyester and a fivefold reduction in elongation. ILC engineers used these properties to produce restraints that were strong yet thin enough to drive down torque. "Thinner webbings equate to a thinner beam," says Graziosi, getting back to some engineering fundamentals.
With the I-Suit, ILC has again upped the ante on materials, this time replacing some of the Spectra restraints with braided cords of Vectran, a liquid-crystal-polymer fiber. Graziosi says the Vectran doesn't necessarily beat out Spectra from a strength or elongation standpoint, but it does have "better warm-side properties." It resists temperatures up to about 300F versus 150F for the Spectra. Vectran also exhibits better creep performance, he says. Another selling point for Vectran comes down to experience; ILC has used variants of the material extensively in the inflatable landing systems it has made for the Mars Rover and other spacecraft.
Still, ILC doesn't use Vectran throughout the suit. On the suit's body, or structural restraint layer, it has stuck with high-tenacity polyester similar to what it uses on the shuttle suits. "The highest strength fabric is not always the best," says Graziosi. In the suit's soft upper torso, for example, you might want some elongation to smooth out the load transfer and avoid stress concentrations.
Another key element of the I-Suit design involves its weight. Zero gravity suits for the shuttle "are heavy because it's okay for them to be heavy," Spampinato notes. But for a walking suit every ounce counts, and ILC engineers have shaved about 40 percent of the weight off the suit. Their I-Suit prototype weighs in at a svelte 65 lb without its life support backpack or thermal layer, compared to 107 lb for the shuttle extravehicular suits.
This huge weight loss came mostly from a switch to lighter weight materials. ILC engineers started by replacing the hard fiberglass upper torso found on previous suits with a lighter fabric torso. On the suit's many rotating bearings, they replaced large stainless steel housings with aluminum, keeping stainless steel only for the bearing races and ballswhich see high contact loads. They finally crafted the suit's 40 or so swivels and brackets, which form the attachment points for the structural restraints, out of titanium rather than stainless steel.
Graziosi notes that titanium didn't play a role in past suits because ILC was able to meet its mass budgets without using an expensive lightweight alternative to steel. "There were also some questions about titanium's stability in a pure oxygen environment," he says. With the I-Suit's premium on weight, titanium started to make sense. What's more, titanium components have also become less expensive to produce over the past few years, according to Graziosi. He explains that advances in machining techniques have closed the cost gap between titanium and specialty grades of stainless steel. "The cost differences between the materials themselves has become a minor difference when you consider the cost of machining," he says.
The I-Suit also provided an opportunity to prove out concepts for another kind of light-weight material. ILC engineers fashioned one of the suit's large shoulder bearing housings from a graphite epoxy instead of aluminum, saving about one pound. Making all the bearings housings from the same material would save about ten pounds, Graziosi reports. "One of our goals with the I-Suit was to prove that we can use lightweight materials at a low cost, and I think we've done that," he says.
More Work to Do
Though the I-Suit may look very much like a finished spacesuit, it will still take years before NASA arrives at a final design for its next planetary suit. As Kosmo notes, NASA engineers still have to make fundamental design decisions such as the number and location of rotating bearings. D. Clark's prototype suit, for example, uses a rotating bearing only at the wrist and arm while the I-Suit has them at the hip and shoulder too. "It's clear we'll need some rotating joints," Kosmo says, "but how many is still undecided." NASA also requires more testing of any new materials used in the prototype suits, not just for strength and thermal performance but also against an extensive battery of chemicals. The suit designs themselves also need their share of testing in the lab and in the desert proving grounds.
Finally, the suits that ultimately go to Mars will likely feature technologies not found on the I-Suit but currently in development by NASA and its suppliers. Kearney says the next generation of suits will likely include "multi-function" materials. Materials that perform a structural and thermal role, for example, could reduce the number of layers used to make a finished suit. Kearney says another keen area of interest involves "textile switches," or fabric that integrates touch pad controls. ILC is already at work on just such a technology and plans to have it in the I-Suit this month. These textile switches will be used for tasks as simple as turning on the suit's helmet lighting or as complex as remotely controlling robotic systems. ILC is also working to integrate gestural, or movement-based, controls into the suits.

Automatic sync of 2 iDevices over Bluetooth or WiFi (no separate app password required). App is bi-directional; either device can be used as remote control for the other.
A cellular data plan is not required. The images and control does not go thru a server but direct device-to-device.
Now supports auto focus, auto brightness, auto white balance, and low light mode (when available on a device) when taking pics. All of these features are on by default.
Also can control camera light on/off remotely. Note: the light control is the "always on" light mode, not the flash mode. We figured that if it was dark, you would need to light up the scene so you could see it over the remote. Can also run on iPad in compatibility mode (e.g. small sized or at 2x magnification).
Note: if you have a WiFi tethering plan on one of your iDevices, you can tether one iDevice to the other (in the normal way via WiFi) before running this app, and RSRCam will have faster video feed response than when running it over Bluetooth.
1. Install this app on 2 iOS devices.
2. Turn on Bluetooth, both devices:
Go to the Settings app / General / Bluetooth / On. You may have to follow the ordinary iOS Bluetooth device pairing instructions if you hadn't paired these 2 devices before.
(Optionally: tether the devices via WiFi using ordinary iOS methods).
3. Launch apps.
4. Set upper left switch to Camera on 1 app; Remote on other app.
5. Apps may take a few seconds to sync up using radio waves.
6. Remote range is about 10 to 15 meters depending on conditions.
7. From the remote app, you can see what the other phone's camera sees, and switch the camera light on/off.
8. Snap a picture with the Remote Pic button on the remote side. The picture will be taken and stored on the Camera side at Full resolution (not low quality preview image quality).
9. Note: buttons are active on the camera side too, just in case. Note Local Pic button when upper left switch is set to Camera. Pressing this will take a picture on the local device, not on the remote.
10. Works with the main high resolution camera only, not the camera that points toward the user of the phone.
11. This is not a generic remote shutter release for non-Apple SLR cameras. Will only work with iPhones, iPods, iPads.
12. Automatically allows low light photos if cam side of app supports this (e.g. iPhone5+).
13. The iOS device functioning as the remote need not have a camera.
14. Preview image is of reduced quality for better video speed over Bluetooth, and is mainly for lining up the shot.
15. Use Relink button to re-connect the 2 apps if they somehow become disconnected, if video stream disappears or locks up. Press Relink on 1 device, and if it doesn't resync in a few seconds, press Relink also on the other device.
If you have trouble connecting remotely:
Shut off WiFi on both devices if you are in a passworded WiFi area. Password on WiFi can confuse the connection. If you have more trouble connecting, exit both apps and re-start them.
Using WiFi tethering is usually faster than Bluetooth.
Advanced users:
The app works across unpassworded local WiFi as well, with faster response of viewfinder picture.
* Go to the Settings app / General / Bluetooth / On.
You may have to follow the ordinary iOS Bluetooth device pairing instructions if you hadn't paired these 2 devices before.
What's New in Version 1.3

Is Chile's Prez Pushing Gay Rights To Score In The Polls? Works For Us
If you're keeping track of countries that are closer than the United States to giving full equality to their gay and lesbian citizens, you might have to add Chile to that list.
On Tuesday, President Sebastian Pinera proposed legislation to recognize gay civil unions, granting them inheritance rights and other privileges currently only given to heterosexual marriages.
"All forms of marriage deserve respect, dignity and the support of the state," said President Pinera, who signed the proposal and sent it to Congress.
"This puts opposite-sex and same-sex couples on the same footing, because in both cases it is possible to develop love, affection and respect." [Source: AFP]
Don't pour the pisco just yet, though: Pinera has repeatedly stated his opposition to full marriage equality.
"I deeply believe that marriage is by nature between a man and a woman, but that conviction does not prevent me from recognizing that other forms of affective relationships exist."
Leaders from opposition parties, who boycotted the unveiling of the bill, claim Pinera, a conservative and one of the country's richest men, is only trying to bolster his flagging popularity and appease students, who have been protesting for several months.
Hey, for a country that's 80% Catholic—and that just officially recognized divorce in 2004—we're not complaining.
Well, yes, for a country that is 80% Catholic. Even though gay marriage or civil unions are already recognised in a lot of other countries in Latin America (e.g. Argentina, right across the Andes).
I guess it's a good development for Gay Rights, but I hate it that this has been used in a moment when the President has only about 26% of approval ratings, and with student rioting for other equally, if not more, important issues such as inequality in the education system.Aug 10, 2011 at 9:44 am · @Reply ·
I am complaining: I am chilean. I don't want Chile to become the next UK, with a "civil union" law that obstructs marriage equality.
Anyway, I don't think this gets aproved. Details are missing in the body of your new: the political parties that support conservative president Piñera (RN and UDI; "National Renovation" and Independent "Democratic Union") don't support this law proposal. It's true that the opposition mostly values this and will partially support it, but I doubt, hardly, that this helps Piñera to recover in the polls. He's down there because he made a lot of promises in his campaign and accomplish them but with conditions, what's called in here "the tiny type in the contract". This is just another show of that: he promised civil union during his government. He didn't say it would be unsupported by government-supporting parties.
Given that divorce was illegal until the several years, Chile is making huge social strides.
Blood on the streets of Santiago, with teargas and extreme violence being used against student protesters by the state but as long as there's a move towards gay marriage Queerty is happy – what typically two-dimensional coverage.
Fuck all this second-class marriages! This is NOT equality!
No it isn't equality, but it's progress towards equality, and that's helluva lot more than the United States can manage.
If a conservative Chilean chief executive can state unambiguously that, "all forms of marriage deserve respect, dignity and the support of the state," one wonders why our President Fierce Advocate can, at best, burble lackwitted nonsense about "evolving."
I agree with @M
Haven't oyu seen what happened in the UK? This could be seen as "progress towards equality", but in some countries, it's used as the excuse to ban marriage equality. A paralel new these days is that some deputies from the government's parties presented a law project in the deputies chamber to constitutionaly ban same sex marriage.
