Planet of the Drums
Founded during the summer of 2000, the Planet of the Drums is the alliance of four of America's most popular drum and bass DJ's: ❈AK1200❈ (Dave Minner, Orlando, Florida), ❅ DJ Dara❅ (Darragh Guilfoyle, Brooklyn, New York), ❇Dieselboy❇ (Damian Higgins, Brooklyn, New York), and ❆MC Messinian❆ (James Fiorella, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). The alliance was created to move drum and bass out of siderooms and onto the main stages of electronic dance music events. In fall 2009 the Planet of the Drums embarked on their Tenth Anniversary Tour. The Planet of the Drums is the longest-running annual national electronic dance music tour of any genre.
The longest running D&B DJ in the USA. Member of the infamous Planet of the Drums crew. Founder of Big Riddim Recordings. Dave, AK1200, has been a driving force within Drum and Bass culture in America since its inception. From his legendary mix CD's to his extensive list of high profile remixes and original tunes, he has maintained a presence within the scene for more than 20 years. For lack of a better term, AK is a "classically" trained DJ, mixing live for each crowd. Every set is unique and completely dependent on what gets the best reaction from the floor that night.
❅ Dara❅
A member of the infamous Planet of the Drums crew, this Irish transplant has been a dominant figure in the U.S. drum 'n bass scene since his arrival here in 1994. His discography includes 2 critically acclaimed full length artist albums, 8 DJ mix CDs, as well as numerous singles and remixes for artists such as Freq Nasty, Afrika Bambaata and Keoki. Dara co-founded the nation's first & largest drum 'n bass record store, Breakbeat Science, in NYC which doubles as his own imprint, Breakbeat Science Recordings. Dara's long standing relationships with the world's drum 'n bass elite gives him access to an astounding amount of new and unreleased material. His brilliant recording endeavors along with his incessant touring markey by consistently awe-inspiring DJ sets have made him one of the most recognized and well respected DJs in the country.
At a time when headline "DJs" shamelessly play pre-programmed or pre-recorded sets and the masses mindlessly embrace the charade, Dieselboy stands out as a rare veteran of the art and craft of live DJing. His focus on creating complex and unique mixes every performance have created legions of fans around the world. Very few artists mix live on three decks with more precision, intensity or finesse. For over two decades one of the world's great ambassadors of drum 'n' bass and more recently dubstep, Dieselboy, also known as Damian Higgins, is America's most iconic underground bass music curator and pioneer. He was the first drum 'n' bass artist to chart a single on Billboard's dance chart with "Invid" in 2000, and the first American voted into the UK-based Drum & Bass Arena Top 10 DJs online poll in 2004.
Respected by fans far and wide in the Electronic Music/Dance community, Messinian's commanding voice and stage presence have brought countless club and festival goers to expect the unexpected. A natural at fusing genres and uniting the masses, Messinian brings a raw emotion and intensity that consistently burns the roof down. His life is all about controlling microphones and turntables in front of wild crowds and taking the energy in the venue to a higher level.

So I have an 8 frame bee hive that has two deeps and a medium. I extracted the medium before the fall flow assuming that the bees would fill it. There are a ton of completely full deep frames in the lower deeps. Last I did a full inspection the top deep only had two frames of brood in the center, but seemed to be back filled. The bottom had a bit more brood, but has a ton of honey. I have been feeding trying to get them to fill some of that top super, but thus far they have done nothing with it. Idea as to what I should do with that super? Leave it alone as is? Remove it and leave them alone?
Edit- If every deep weighs between 8-9 lbs (according to Michael bush's website a 10 frame deep weighs 80-90 lbs), I should have enough honey between those two deeps. The top eight are basically full and at least half in the lower box are full. That's twelve deep frames of honey, maybe more. I guess the question should be, do I bring the medium down in order for them to have more cluster space?

[Article]-Review: SANS SEC709 Developing Exploits
Permanent link: [Article]-Review: SANS SEC709 Developing Exploits
Review by Zoher Anis, TerpSys
I had the opportunity to attend SANS 2009 in Orlando, once again as a facilitator. This time it was to tackle the toughest course SANS has to offer, SANS SEC709 Developing Exploits for Penetration Testers and Security Researchers, currently their only 700-level course. As described on SANS web site:
"In this course, we bridge the gaps and take a step-by-step look at Linux and Windows operating systems and how exploitation truly works under the hood. This four-day course rapidly progresses through exploitation techniques used to attack stacks, heaps, and other memory segments on Linux and Windows. This is a fast-paced course that provides you with the skills to hit the ground running with vulnerability research."
I would like to begin by saying that the above description is very accurate and should be taken word-for-word. It is a very tough course and very fast-paced. It does require you to know intermediate level x86 assembly programming, basic level C and python to get the most out of the course. Here's a quick day-by-day account of my experiences.
Let us know what you think and also recommend other courses, SANS or otherwise, you'd like for us to review.

AMD ZeroCore Power Management
Source: AMD
When a discrete GPU is in a static screen state it works to minimize idle power by enabling a host of active power saving functions including (but not limited to); clock gating, power gating, memory compression, and a host of other features. However, GPUs with AMD's exclusive AMD ZeroCore Power technology can take energy savings to entirely new heights by completely powering down the core GPU while the rest of the system remains active.
Nearly all PCs can be configured to turn off their displays after a long period of inactivity. This is known as the long idle state; where the screen is blanked but the rest of the system remains in an active and working power state (ACPI G0/S0). As soon as the system goes into long idle state and applications are not actively changing the screen contents, the GPU enters the AMD ZeroCore power state. In the AMD ZeroCore power state, the GPU core (including the 3D engine / compute units, multimedia and audio engines, displays, memory interfaces, etc.) is completely powered down. However, one cannot simply remove the GPU and its associated device context completely; particularly when it is the only GPU in the system as is the case in many enthusiast platforms. The operating system and SBIOS must still be aware that a GPU is still present in the system. For this reason, the AMD ZeroCore Power state maintains a very small bus control block to ensure that GPU context is still visible to the operating system and SBIOS. The AMD ZeroCore power state also manages the power sequencing of the GPU to ensure that the power up/down mechanism is self-contained and independent of the rest of the system.
The enablement of the AMD ZeroCore Power feature is controlled by the driver. The driver monitors the display contents and allows the GPU to enter the AMD ZeroCore Power in the condition that the GPU enters long idle and subsequent work requests are no longer being submitted to the engine. If any applications update the screen contents, AMD ZeroCore Power technology can periodically wake the GPU to update the framebuffer contents and put the GPU back into the AMD ZeroCore Power state. Furthermore, applications such as Windows 7 desktop gadgets are architected to minimize activity and save power in the long idle state. These applications are active during screen-on mode to display dynamic content such as weather, RSS feeds, stock symbols, system status, etc. but also have the intelligence to suspend any updates and activity when the system enters long idle. These applications will not wake the GPU from the AMD ZeroCore Power state in long idle.
AMD ZeroCore Power technology delivers tremendous energy savings. Many PCs remain in the long idle state for a variety of use cases that are highly relevant to everyday consumers, enthusiasts and professionals. In AMD ZeroCore Power mode, users can still enjoy non-graphics activities such as file serving/streaming, motherboard audio and music, and remote access while the GPU core is essentially powered off.
In the next section, we detail our test methodology and give specifications for all of the benchmarks and equipment used in our testing process…

Spinning the truth
Don Bye likes to spin the truth. In his Jan. 24 column titled "Gun allowance," Bye made the following statement in an attempt to denigrate the NRA and its elected official grading system:
"All of Minnesota's federal elected officials are rated either A or F. There is no room for grading in between, no B, no C, no D, just 10 times A or F."
This is a completely false statement, as the NRA grading system consists of A, B, C, D and F complete with pluses and minuses. It just happens that several of our current federally elected officials warrant F's from the NRA.
I spoke with Lake Country Echo management personnel and asked that Mr. Bye be given an opportunity to correct this lie about the NRA grading system in his next column. I was told they would inform Mr. Bye of his lie.
Since Mr. Bye has not come forward to correct his lie, it would seem Mr. Bye approves of his lie. As a subscriber and advertiser, I find it extremely disturbing that someone who has been contributing a regular column for several years is allowed to lie and will not come forward to correct his lie.
Therefore, I would suggest that the Lake Country Echo say a permanent goodbye to Mr. Bye, as readers cannot rely on what is said by Mr. Bye. It may very well be a lie.

Have you ever wished you could enter the world of your favorite movie? That's what happens to Brady, played by Austin & Ally's Ross Lynch, in Teen Beach Movie, an original movie musical premiering July 19 on Disney Channel. When Brady saves his girlfriend, McKenzie, played by Maia Mitchell, from a bad wave during their last surf of summer, the couple is magically transported into the plot of Brady's favorite beach musical, a fictional movie called Wet Side Story that is set in 1962.
Teen Beach Movie is a modern, tongue-in-cheek take on the beach party movies from the 1960s. The movie was directed and choreographed by Jeffrey Hornaday, who famously choreographed dance movies Flashdance and A Chorus Line and recently directed the Disney Channel original movie Geek Charming. Hornaday spoke to TFK about filming the new movie.
The fictional Wet Side Story movie was partly inspired by the real movie musical West Side Story. What are some of the movies that inspired Teen Beach Movie?
For a lot of us, it was Back to the Future, and then more closely, The Wizard of Oz because ultimately, it's about a girl that goes pretty far out of herself to learn that home is inside herself or in her own back yard.
Kids know musicals, but some might not be familiar with the beach movies from the 60s. How did you bring their qualities into Teen Beach Movie?
Because kids have no point of reference for the films, what we tried to do was recall the feeling you have thinking about them, which was a real sense of whimsy and excitement. In order to make it relevant to kids today, we really wanted to create a real sense of fun. One of the things we talked about was deliberately going over-the-top with it, like the overhead shots with the surfboards and the kids busting out into song and dance. It's not often where you get to do a full-on breakout song and dance musical.
Is there one beach film that you would suggest kids go back and watch if they enjoy this movie?
Beach Blanket Bingo [from 1965] was the quintessential one, and it had the romantic through-line, which I think is the other thing that resonates with Teen Beach Movie.
Ross Lynch told us he learned how to surf for the film. Can you talk about that and the experience of filming those scenes in Puerto Rico?
Ross turned out to be a quadruple threat because he acts, he sings great, and he's not just a really good contemporary dancer, but he's an old hoofer and can tap dance. There was one scene where he needed to be on a jet ski and the waves were really big that day. We were concerned, so we brought in a stunt double, but Ross said, "Let me try this." He completely outdid the stunt double. It was his footage that we ended up using.
It was the same with surfing. He and Maia both unabashedly threw themselves into it. Rather than being top-notch competitive surfers, what was important was that they became fearless, and that's what I was really amazed by. There's one sequence in the film where Maia's character takes a really rough crashing into the white water falls, which she did herself. We were actually able to use a lot of [footage of] them doing their own surfing.
What is your favorite musical number from this film?
Just because it's so unabashedly physical and dynamic in terms of its dancing, it would be the "Cruisin' for a Bruisin'" number. It's the motorcycle kids against the surfer kids.
The movie is kind of tongue-in-cheek about the inherent corniness of musicals. What's the key to a good, fun movie musical?
This was an important goal for us. When they first arrive in that 60s movie, we want to portray the characters in that world from Maia's early point of view. She saw that genre as something that was two dimensional and kind of over-the-top. We wanted by the end of it to be real, full people that you felt something for.
Why should kids tune in?
It's funny and really fun and ultimately touching and, if they love music and dance, they are going to get to see it in a whole new way. Even though they haven't seen the original [beach movies], I think it will be really fun for them to see modern flair but in a really kind of vintage way.
You had a career in choreography. When did you start dancing and what advice would you give kids who are interested in that career?
I first started when I was 14 or 15, which traditionally is late to be starting. The advice I'd give kids is that, wherever you live and whatever your circumstances, if you feel something passionate in your heart, then you should follow that. That's an important theme in the movie as well.
Teen Beach Movie premieres on Disney Channel at 8 p.m. ET, followed by the series premiere of the new Disney Channel show Liv & Maddie at 9:45 p.m.
TFK Kid Reporter Adriana Palmieri reviewed the movie and spoke to actors Garrett Clayton and Grace Phipps. Click here to read her report.

This is our story and this is our country
David Malangi's world is indeed an extraordinary place – physically, spiritually and psychologically. To become familiar with its many facets, environments and ancestral connections is to come to know his art and to share his vision.
I first met Malangi in 1993. I had moved to Ramingining to be the Arts Administrator at Bula'bula Arts. During those early months I was gradually gaining familiarity with the various clan groups in the area, their associated ancestral narratives or Dreamings and particular clan-based imagery, the key artists and their individual styles. Among the painters working with the arts centre at that time Malangi's style was like no other. The wide white line, the dense matt black, the distinctive rich red and chocolate brown pigment,2 the generous rärrk3 (cross-hatching) and the bold graphic depictions of iconic ancestral beings all made up the singular and unmistakable style of David Malangi, the bark painter.
My accumulating familiarity with the person, the clan and the sites enabled me to see beyond the figurative depictions of creatures to recognise the work of a master draftsman, a painter who had an expert command of composition and an absolutely distinctive visual language. I also came to know a man of engaging personality and great generosity of spirit.
David Malangi Daymirriŋu4 (1927–1999), one of the renowned painters of Arnhem Land, was a member of the Manharru5 clan of the Dhuwa moiety. As is customary in Yolu social laws of the Arnhem Land region, and indeed in many parts of Indigenous Australia, Malangi had inherited rights and responsibilities to particular tracts of land, ancestral sites within them and ceremonies related to them. For the purposes of overview I have grouped these areas into three distinct sections.
Throughout his career Malangi painted aspects of the areas of land which were his responsibility, with periods of emphasis – bodies of work – devoted to one area or another. The key countries and themes depicted in his paintings include the patrilineally inherited Dhuwa moiety lands of Mulaŋa and Nurrunyuwa on the eastern bank of the Glyde River on the Arafura Sea; Dhämala and Dhäbila on the western side of the river; and the Yirritja moiety lands of his mother around Yathalamarra billabong further west and about 20km inland from the Arafura coast. These three areas in central Arnhem Landare near the mainland town of Ramingining and the island of Milingimbi just off shore, about 500km east of Darwin.

Heading on up to the Capital today.
I hope I'm not the only one there, it seems like noone around town knew or cares (once told).
Should be a nice day outside anyway:salute:
There were only about 150 folks that showed up at the rally here in Greenville yesterday. It was short notice, and wasn't advertised except on our local talk radio station. I went to our local news websites this morning to see what kind of coverage it received, and there was ONE picture, and ZERO text. Seriously?!?!?! MSM is such a bunch of Libtards.
I hope the Gun Appreciation Day goes better in all 50 states. Good luck to all who are going. I am stuck at work, and can't attend.
My banner is up. " Uphold the 2nd amendment and the 10th!!". Took a picture of it and posted it on facebook.
an the nra hasn't even acknowledged that citizens are protesting . will they just wait for negatives media attention an then make a statement after he fact???
I went up to Concord with my buddy Brian for the 2nd amendment rally.
I think we had about 250-300 people there.
Better than I thought, less than should've been there.
The NRA was there passing out bumper stickers, & pins but didn't really say anything.
A couple of state reps spoke & even a very well spoken young lady took the mic for a bit.
Zero (uniformed) police presence, I was pretty surprised at that.
Maybe they are on our side?:troops:
There is a vote on Thursday for the "stand your ground" law that some douchbag proposed to reverse.
So We'll be heading on back, flags in hand!
Heres some pics.
Attended the rally here in Nebraska. There were several hundred people here and some very good speakers. Two television stations were there. Of course they went to overweight guys that hadn't shaved in a week to do interviews. Most of the people at the rally were ex or active military or small town LEO's. I was in a gun shop (which was packed) about three blocks from the capital just before the rally and sadly, no one knew about it.... The day would have gone much better if it had been in the paper ahead of time.
AUSTIN, Texas — Thousands of gun advocates gathered peacefully Saturday at state capitals around the U.S. to rally against stricter limits on firearms, with demonstrators carrying rifles and pistols in some places while those elsewhere settled for waving hand-scrawled signs or screaming themselves hoarse.
The size of crowds at each location varied — from dozens of people in South Dakota to 2,000 in New York. Large crowds also turned out in Connecticut, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Washington state. Some demonstrators in Olympia, Wash., Phoenix, Salem, Ore., and Salt Lake City came with holstered handguns or rifles on their backs. At the Kentucky Capitol in Frankfort, attendees gave a special round of applause for "the ladies that are packin'."
Activists promoted the "Guns Across America" rallies primarily through social media. They were being held just after President Barack Obama unveiled a sweeping package of federal gun-control proposals.
The crowd swelled to more than 800 amid balmy temperatures on the steps of the pink-hued Capitol in Austin, where speakers took the microphone under a giant Texas flag with "Independent" stamped across it. Homemade placards read "An Armed Society is a Polite Society," "The Second Amendment Comes from God" and "Hey King O., I'm keeping my guns and my religion."
"The thing that so angers me, and I think so angers you, is that this president is using children as a human shield to advance a very liberal agenda that will do nothing to protect them," said state Rep. Steve Toth, referencing last month's elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn.
Toth, a first-term Republican lawmaker from The Woodlands outside Houston, has introduced legislation banning within Texas any future federal limits on assault weapons or high-capacity magazines, though such a measure would violate the U.S. Constitution.
Rallies at statehouses nationwide were organized by Eric Reed, an airline captain from the Houston area who in November started a group called "More Gun Control (equals) More Crime." Its Facebook page has been "liked" by more than 17,000 people.
They shouldv''ve had the SD rally in Sioux Falls. Pierre is a long drive for anyone here. Sioux Falls would've had a better turn-out.
No mention of numbers, short article. Anyone here at the rally?
LITTLE ROCK, AR -- A passionate crowd gathered at the Arkansas State Capitol Saturday, as gun right supporters send a message to local and national lawmakers.
The rally was part of the National Guns Across America movement.
"Leave the law the way it is. Leave the constitution, with the second amendment, the way it is," said supporter Gloria Pinion.
Planners say something must be done to combat gun violence. But any kind of gun ban is not the answer.
Supporters say lawmakers are not listening to the American people, pointing at the presidents recent executive order to strengthen gun laws.
"When you see something like these school shootings happen, the only way to stop that is to have someone there with a gun," said supporter Richard Burke.
Ralliers say gun bans do not prevent gun crimes.
"I believe the right to bear arms should include the right for law abiding citizens to conceal carry everywhere we go," said rallier Adam Skarda.
Instead of the typical NRA email it would have been nice if they mentioned it people were gathering at the state capitals yesterday. if they're going to support gun rights they need to support the people that are fighting for them also. a simple email from the NRA would have increased turn out immensely and it would have not cost them a dime! Apparently if it's not the NRA 'S idea they don't support it. In the end it's going to come down to what the people of this country And gun owners wantnot with the NRA wants. The fact is there was a planned nationwide rally at most States Capitol and the NRA did not spread the word. WHY??????????

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Gear (General) › Anyone used a 'hoodie' buff?
Jun 25, 2012 at 5:35 am #1291361
While browsing around for new headwear I came across the 'hoodie' buff:
I don't currently have any hooded jackets apart from my rain jacket, mainly due to the fact I haven't found any available locally that are lightweight. Hood seems to equal streetwear and hence heavy. I don't actually mind a hood though and I'm considering this as an alternative to my fleece beanie I currently use. I like the flexibility of it. Does anybody have any experience with this or know how much it weighs? What products are similar? Do you think it's practical or just gimmicky?
MichaelJun 25, 2012 at 10:49 am #1889955
Dustin ShortBPL Member
Maybe your standard "hoodie" made of fleece or cotton is street wear but for the back country hoods probably provide the largest bang for your buck/oz when it comes to warmth. Your body loses a disproportionate amount of heat through your neck and head than the rest of your body, so covering that small amount of surface area with insulation (and keeping out drafts) will keep you much warmer than if you added that extra weight to torso insulation. This same principal is why a balaclava is also warmer than a beanie, because wind and cold is kept off your neck.
That said, the hoodie buff LOOKS gimmicky as shiite. Then I started reading a bit more about it. The hood is made of windstopper which is essentially just Gen 1 goretex. So it will be windproof, mildly breathable, and highly water resistant (when clean it will probably only let water in through the seams, unfortunately looks like there may be one on the very top of the hood). There's a thin microfiber layer to cover your nose and mouth that will block some wind but won't impede breathing much. Finally the integrated neck gaiter will provide some warmth too. The product definitely isn't gimmicky, looks aside. That said I'm not sure about the placement of the windstopper. I like wind protection around both my ears (which get really painful in a freezing wind) and my neck for warmth. The buff cyclone gives me that option, but not the hoodie. Still the hoodie may be easier to use in balaclava mode than a normal buff since it's more specifically designed.
If it looks like it will fit your needs I wouldn't worry about it being gimmicky and turning out a dud. I own an original buff, a wool buff, and the cyclone buff and all of them have been great. I think the company has a good feel for headwear so there's probably a niche purpose for the hoodie version (I'm thinking it's A LOT easier to configure as a balaclava which would be nice in colder conditions).
Also they have two hooded buffs. The HOOD buff looks more technical, ie the hood is more form fitting (and probably lighter) whereas the HOODIE buff looks to have a larger hood and they state it's a bit more fashionable. So depends on your tastes but I would lean towards the regular HOOD buff (or the cyclone which can look really ugly but works well for me!)Jun 25, 2012 at 11:14 am #1889967

I've been trying a succession of buffs and balaclavas and haven't found anything that makes me scream "eureka." I wear a 7-3/4 hat and the buffs have all been uncomfortably small. I've found that it would need to be very cold to need the fuller face coverage of a balaclava and I would normally be home in front of the fire :)
What has worked, and has nearly as much coverage as a hood, is a Peruvian style fleece hat– the ones with ear flaps and a neck lanyard. Outdoor Research and The North Face make the best I've found.
Other than that, my favorite mid-layer is a Power Stretch hoodie with a full zip. If it is cold enough to need the hood, I need the rest of it too. The hood can't be lost or blown off.
Another very universal alternative for head and face coverage is a simple 100w fleece scarf. A scarf can equal a bandanna for multiple uses and are cheap, light, and easy to find.Jun 25, 2012 at 1:59 pm #1890011

Can't comment on the OP product, but I carry a 9 oz. Montbell UL inner parka with hood on almost every outing. At night, if it' warm, it's my pillow. If it's extremely cold, a hooded down jacket adds 15 or more degrees to my bag's comfort rating. Around camp, the hooded down jacket is much more warm and comfortable than a jacket and beanie. If cold ill take both. If not so much, I will never be left wishing I had a hat. I got last year's color from Backcountry for $129. One of the best pieces of gear ever. But … I wear hoodies all the time when I am not in the field. So I am biased.Jun 25, 2012 at 3:16 pm #1890025

+1 on Dale's post.
Got a huge noggin and I've tried many hats and buffs with no luck. I should post them in gear swap or PIF. I either feel like my head is in a vise and rip off the hat in the middle of the night or I wake up cold with the hat somewhere else. I have had goo dluck with a home made puruvian fleece hat or a hooded jacket.
Good luck in your search.

I'd be curious what it weighs, I have a R1 balaclava that works pretty well and weighs in at 2.2 oz
for pure warmth, you won't beat a down hood, they are light too- Katabatic offers two modelsJul 2, 2012 at 2:25 am #1891532
actually at 70 bucks I'm reconsidering seeing as I could buy a 100 weight fleece with hood for that price

Cabweons have especially large asses that are so big that they can actually in rare occasions own their own moons. Cabweons also drive like FUCKING IDIOTS and TAILGATE THE EVER LOVING SHIT OUT OF PEOPLE. Cabweons are extremely easy to upset because they are whiny little bitches.

What makes skin feel soft and smooth? Healthy skin produces natural moisturizers, and its moisture barrier—a protective layer made up of millions of skin cells held together by lipids—helps hold this moisture in and keep skin hydrated. When the moisture barrier is damaged—as a result of cold, dry air, sun exposure, frequent hand washing and other factors—skin is unable to retain its natural moisture, causing it to feel dry, rough and itchy.
Ready to transform dry, irritated skin back into healthy-looking, supple skin? Read on to find out the factors that cause dryness and how you can replenish your skin's vital moisture.
Several factors can cause skin to lose moisture:

Talking about a kit from the likes of RCD/Pro Comp/Fabtech/etc. I was guesstimating appx. 8-10 hrs. @ +/- $100/hr. So, like $800-$1000..... Am I in the neighborhood? Thanks.

Turner & the Sea
On view May 31, 2014 to September 1, 2014
Located in the: Special Exhibition Galleries
In the first full-scale examination of Joseph Mallord William Turner's lifelong preoccupation with the sea, this exhibition features iconic works spanning the artist's career from his transformative Academy paintings of the late 1790s and early 1800s, to the unfinished, experimental seascapes produced towards the end of his life. At turns dramatic, contemplative, beautiful and sublime, the sea's mercurial properties captivated Turner and his contemporaries who repeatedly returned to the subject. Iconic Turner masterpieces are exhibited alongside works by other major European and American artists, providing a rich artistic context for Turner's groundbreaking vision.
Turner & the Sea was produced by the National Maritime Museum, part of Royal Museums Greenwich, London. Supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities.
Carolyn and Peter S. Lynch and The Lynch Foundation, and The Manton Foundation provided generous support.
The East India Marine Associates of the Peabody Essex Museum also provided support.

Where I stayed
After a super chilled and almost day dream like few days on the Corn Islands, it was time to fly back to the mainland. This time we left Managua, heading straight past Granada to a town called San Jorge on the banks of Lake Nicaragua. We would then catch a ferry (or "lancha", more like a privately owned large fisherman�s boat) across to the geographically unique looking island of Isla De Ometepe.
As our ferry approached the island, it began to look like a scene out of the Lord of the Rings trilogy consisting of two massive volcanos (Concepcion - about 1600m above sea level; and Maderas - about 1300m above see level) covered in dense forests and amazing cloud formations around the cones. We�d been given advice from other travelers about a hostel on the south west end of the island called Hacienda Merida, which turned out to be a great place to crash for the next 3 nights
This hostel also put an end to my re-occurring comment to Charlotte about being surprised that we�d not come across a single South African since starting our travels. On the first night there I met a guy called Matthew and it turned out he was from Durban, had just started kitesurfing and competed at an international level in triathlon....as
you could imagine there was no shortage of conversation over the next few days! In addition we met two great Swedish girls, Anna and Sofia, as well as an American girl also called Anna. We ended up hanging out together for the duration of our stay, enjoying some great evenings of long in depth discussions about the places we�d grown up in, the reasons behind our decisions to go traveling, and the places we�d visited so far
On our first day, Charlotte and I decided to do a relatively short hike to the San Ramon waterfall on the side of the Maderas Volcano. We hired some bikes and rode the 4 kms to the entrance of the trail, continuing on foot for the remaining 3km ascent. There wasn�t a breath of wind that day and the temperature I�m sure had reached over 40 degrees by midday, making the climb to the falls extremely tough going. The worst bit was the last 100 meters or so, which after an hour and 10 minutes of hard slogging up the mountain drenched in sweat, was made almost impossible by the impending 70% incline remaining in front of us. We eventually got to the top and were greeted by the sight of a beautiful waterfall and a cool misty spray caused by the falling water and the winds it generated. We sat in the pools at the base of the falls for about half an hour, soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the stunning views as well as the cooling effect of the falls, before starting our trek back down.
The guide books had said that this trek should be done as a precursor to attempting the 8 hour hike all the way to the top of Maderas, and that any struggling on this trail should be considered a sign to not attempt it
Charlotte to come along. But alas, the beckoning of the swaying hammocks fused with a day of completely chilling out with her new book was far too appealing for my girlfriend. So Anna (the American) decided to join Matt and I, as there was a maximum of three people per guide allowed on the trail.
At 7:30am the next morning, after a hearty Hacienda Merida buffet breakfast, our two young tour guides lead us out of the compound to the start of the trail. The wind was already starting to pick up and there was a pleasant breeze blowing, which was a welcome companion for the start of the climb. The first hour of the hike was mainly along wide paths meandering up the mountain side up towards the treeline, which was where the cloud forest began. Once in the forest, the moist conditions made it pretty slippery from all the mud which combined with the dense vegetation made for slow progress. This meant it wasn�t always possible to divert your attention away from anything other than where your next step would be. However, the sounds coming from the forest were incredible and served as a constant reminder of what kind of environnment you were hiking through. There were parrots screeching from just about every tree branch, along with the loud bellowing sounds of howler monkeys as they moaned across tree tops in the distance. Those monkeys must surely have frightened the first settlers to death, who heard the loud booming, almost monster like noises, coming from the jungles. I would never have thought such a cute and friendly looking creature could make such a frightning sound! As the incline increased, our guides would stop for us to rest after every 30 minutes of climbing at various look out points so that we could admire the view over the island and the surrounding lake
That evening I slept like a baby and in the morning we packed up, said our good byes, and hopped on the chicken bus heading towards the docks. It was probably only about 18 or so kilometers which we covered, but it took almost 2 hours due to the conditions of the roads and the ridiculously high number of stops the driver made to pick people up along the way. Although glad to finally arrive at the docks to get the ferry back to the mainland, it was one of the saddest moments I�ve felt so far when confronted with having to leave a place......an amazing array of wildlife, beautiful scenery, memorable hiking experiences, and above all we made some really awesome friends!

CARTER COUNTY, Tenn. - A Carter County man is accused of abducting and raping a woman.
The Sheriff's Department arrested Leonard Rosco Winters after investigating a report that he allegedly held a woman hostage, raped her and threatened to kill her.
"We interviewed one individual who came to the residence, wasn't allowed in, had to talk through the wall and couldn't see the victim... An indication they were being held and unable to leave," said Sheriff Chris Mathes.
Mathes said the woman was able to escape about two days later when the suspect left the house.
Winters is charged with aggravated domestic assault, false imprisonment and aggravated rape.
Mathes said the case is still under investigation.

The fate of independent bookstores
Original post made by Stephanie, Midtown, on Oct 16, 2006
Web Link
says that independent bookstores such as Kepler's can't compete with Borders, Amazon, and Costco etc. and so are likely to fail unless customers choose to subsidize their existence.
It's not just the Internet and big box stores contributing to the decline of independent bookstores. It's also the libraries that are offering new services that allow readers to reserve books and request purchases and even receive email notification when a desired book is available. Unless I want to own a book for reference or am desperate right before a plane trip, I hardly ever buy a book these days. Is this a bad thing? Well, maybe is is bad for booksellers, but in general, I think not. In fact, I like to think of this as my way of reducing my carbon load and helping to preserve a few more trees.

No doubt about it, many local independents are challenged. This is a multi-faceted problem - one that can only be dealt with by individual independent bookstores, one at a time. There is no universal solution.
Kepler's is essentially on life support, with consumers having to make a conscious decision to shop there, if they want the store to remain. Music shops like Tower records are having similar problems.
What most don't know is that when Amazon was starting up, and making a beginning impact, the American Booksellers Assn. has planned a comprehensive commerce environment that would have worked much like Amazon does, today. That idea died, for lack of interest and will. Whose fault is that.
In a way , small independents that are in trouble have brought many of their current problems on themselves, in spite a popular notions to the contrary.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Very nice. Very nice restoration.
I'm baffled with the obsession with "original finish" myself. It's OK to restore cars and houses but not guns? Weird. When I was stationed in Germany I saw loads of lovingly maintained old fire arms. Some had been re-blued several times, stocks refinished, and the value is higher there when the "continued maintenance" has been done. Only here in the USA do we seem to hear, "You ruined that" by refreshing an oily, dark, flattened checkering stock and having the worn-off bluing renewed.

text: Logic tells me it will be Kostner, Asada and Kim in some order. However, looking at their past, they all have a history of big mistakes at Worlds. Kostner and Asada especially have a history of bombing themselves right off the podium and Kim has a history of digging herself a hole. It would not be surprising at all for one of them to slip off the podium (again, most likely Asada or Kostner) but these skaters are really being held up by PCS lately and they have learned they don't even need to do the harder content. I could easily see them do 5 triple programs with toes, salchows and loops and all stay nice and cozy on the podium. Ironically enough, going for more content may be the only way they don't medal because they may end up popping or getting hit with downgrades.


text: I have very strong half-gal. plastic containers with screw lids that I want to use as feeders. I have only two hives, so thinking two per-feeder over the inner cover and a medium over it (fits). I know I will need to raise them up for the bees to get at the holes in the covers of both pails. How high should the shims be(pails raised) for the bees to get at the holes? If too high will they occupy the whole box?

Nielsen SoundScan has released its data on music sales in 2012 and Universal Music Group remained the #1 label once again, with the largest market share last year. Universal claimed 32.4 percent of the market share (counting album sales plus digital track equivalent albums), with Sony Music making up 30.25 percent of the market share (up from 29.29 percent in 2011). EMI Music's sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 were counted towards UMG, however Billboard notes that even without the EMI sales figures, Universal would have outpaced Sony last year.
Warner Music Group held 19.15 percent of the market share, almost flat from 19.13 percent in 2011. Counting its sales in the first three quarters of 2012, before the UMG deal closed, EMI Music made up 6.78 percent of the market. Independent labels added up to 11.42 percent of the music market, but Billboard reports that "if you count market share by label ownership, the indie market share is much larger -- more than 30 percent."
Overall music purchases were up by 3.1 percent in 2012 to 1.66 billion units, thanks to digital music growth. Digital album sales were up 14.1 percent last year to 118 million, with digital track sales up 5.1 percent, surpassing 1.3 billion. However, sales of albums and digital track equivalent albums fell last year by 1.8 percent compared to 2011, to 450 million. Physical CD sales declined by 13.5 percent in 2012 to 193 million.
Every musical genre saw a decline in music sales in 2012, except for Country (up 4.2 percent) and Rock (up two percent). Jazz and Classical saw the biggest dropoffs, with 26.2 percent and 20.5 percent declines in sales, respectively.
"Overall music purchases surpassed 1.65 billion units in 2012, up 3.1 percent vs. the previous record high set in 2011, driven by digital music sales, which continue be a key growth element within the market," says David Bakula, SVP Client Development, Nielsen. "Digital Album sales are up 14.1 percent and Digital Track sales are up 5.1 percent, but despite being down 12.8 percent, physical is still the dominant album format."
"The big artist stories of the year are Adele and Taylor Swift," continues Bakula. "Adeles album, 21, is the first album ever to be the top seller of the year for two consecutive years and Taylor Swifts Red has sold more than 3.1 million copies in only 10 weeks, debuting with the highest weekly sales of any title since 2002."
As reported yesterday, Adele's 21 finished 2012 as the best selling album in the U.S. for the second straight year. The effort sold 4.41 million copies in 2012, after finishing 2011 with 5.82 million sold. The feat also means that for the first time since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking music sales in 1991, the same album finishes as the United States' best-seller for a second year. Also in 2012, 21 aptly became the 21st album in the SoundScan era to sell 10 million copies.
The year's second-biggest selling album is Taylor Swift's Red, with 3.11 million units sold. One Direction's debut album, Up All Night, is 2012's third-biggest set with 1.62 million sold. At #4 for the year is Mumford & Sons' Babel, which shifted 1.46 million copies. Justin Bieber saw his latest album, Believe, become the #6 best-selling effort of 2012 with 1.34 million.

Banned from adsenseFirst, my friend's adsense account was banned. This was the account that I used for one of my cosmetic surgery site of which I have reported its earnings in my monthly earnings reports. There was no specific message except something along of the line of invalid clicks. This is crazy as there was no abnormal clicks or spikes in the account so I don't know how google came to this conclusion. Anyway, this marks the third adsense account that was banned. Interpret this info as you would. The ban means that I just lost the income from Jan and Feb for this site. Shit!!!!
Fortunately, I found a great adsense alternative which I will talk more about in a future post. If your adsense account has been banned or if you did not manage to get one approved, you might want to look out for that post.
Banned from amazonThe above was nothing. The worse news is what I received in my inbox this morning. Double shit!!!!!
It has come to our attention that you are artificially increasing your advertising fee earnings by automatically tagging Amazon sessions to your account. This is a direct violation of the Operating Agreement to which you agreed when registering for the Program. You can find the complete text of the Associates Program Operating Agreement, including Participation Requirements, via this link:
We insist that you cease this activity and remove all Amazon content from your site(s) immediately. Moreover, because you are using the Associates Program in ways in which it was never intended, your account has been closed and you will not receive further payment. Any other accounts you may have or may open in the future will be closed and advertising fees withheld without notification.
Best regards,
Why I was banned from amazonFrankly speaking, I have no idea what "automatically tagging Amazon" even means. After discussing in a private forum, some members think that it might due to some themes or plugins. My own gut feel is the fact that I have used a redirecting plugin which causes the ban.
The plugin will cloak the links so that instead of showing http://amazon.com/blah blah, it is showing http://sitex.com/recommends/productX. I think this is against their new terms of service in Feb 2012 as stated below:
"In addition, you must not use a link shortening service in a manner that makes it unclear that you are linking to an Amazon Site."
Another possible reason is the auto blog which I have mentioned in my post here about can you make money with auto blogs. This auto blog, for some reasons unknown to me, generated a huge amount of amazon impressions even though I don't have that kind of traffic to back it up.
Take a loot at the stats from my Dec amazon earnings:
Can I get my amazon affiliate account back?I am not sure I can. Of course, I can always get another amazon account as they are not as strict as adsense. However, the thought of replacing all the amazon links with the non redirected links makes me sick in my stomach. Do you know how many pages I need to go through? Geesh, making money online is not an easy thing at all!
Another amazon affiliate alternative is skim links. I just applied for an account but I am not sure how strict are they with the quality of the sites. I intentionally submitted a pure amazon site i.e. there was no other info besides product reviews. We will see how that goes.
A realistic look at the make money online journeyI have posted about my ascend and descend of my adsense earnings in this post on why my adsense earnings is down for 2011. However, I want to list the journey of what you are likely to face as you embark on your money making journey. This is what I have been through and I hoped you have better luck than me!
-First 3 months: Excited about being able to make money online. Lots of possibilities come to your mind. You will also try to understand how everything works and end up confused as hell.
My advice: Do as you learn. It makes everything easier. Don't have to get everything right when you are starting.
- 3-6th months: The passion started to die down as there are no visble results. The hardworking ones would have put in a lot of work but the results are pathetic. You might not have earned a single cent yet.
My advice: Keep working and learning. There is always a breakthrough waiting to happen if you continue to work at it. You might realise you are doing the wrong keyword or you might be focusing on too many sites or keywords ro you might learn how to repeat your first dollar success 100 times. These kind of realisations don't just happen. It will happen only when you continuously apply what you learn.
-6-12th months: Things might start to look up if you have been working hard. You might have earned your first 100 dollars per month. For those who did, you will feel like king of the world. Suddenly, your perspective changes and you realise that working for a job is not the only way to make money. You might even dreamt of working from home.
My advice: This is a good time to start learning about the bad things that can happen. Be prepared for the worst while you still have not much to lose.
-13th -18th months: You might have successfully scaled your sites and earning more than 1k per month. Congrats! You are now convinced that making money through online works! You see endless possibility now and are prepared to scale it up even further.
My advice: You must do things right at this point. Don't take shortcuts. Produce good quality sites with the money you have. Find a purpose for your site besides making money.
- 19th-24th months: Suddenly, problems start to happen if you have not been doing the right things. Your sites might get affected by algorithm changes or your accounts got banned. You realise that things are not as passive as they seems. You get disillusioned and learn to pick yourself up.
My advice: None. I am at this stage right now. I don't know if I want to continue with this path. Getting sites affected by panda and getting your adsense/amazon accounts banned are not fun things at all. One lesson I have learned is that SEO makes you lazy. You tend to forget the fundamentals of a good site because you can get all the traffic just doing backlinks and putting up sub standard content. You can get away with it for a while but things will come back to you.
Hence, my advice for those making some money is to start investing some of these money into better content or even your own product. Look at the startups to see how they are creating products that bring real benefits.
Don't get lazy in your make money journey. SEO is a valuable skill. Don't waste it.

The Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport (BTR) Commission appointed Jim Ellis as the new Commission Chairman at its January, 2010 monthly meeting. Jim Ellis has been a partner in the law firm Taylor, Porter, Brooks & Phillips, L.L.P. since 1978. He has been an integral part of the Baton Rouge Area Chamber of Commerce since 2005; and he currently serves as a board member and member of the Executive Committee. In 2008 Ellis was the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Mr. Ellis stated that forming a competition and development task force that would work to explore options for securing low-cost carrier service for Baton Rouge is one of his top priorities. The task force could include leaders from government, business and major institutions. Low-cost airline service would provide lower fares and additional capacity to stimulate BTR passenger traffic and result in the re-capturing of a significant share of the passenger leakage to New Orleans.
Revenue guarantee programs, in particular, are becoming more prevalent as an option for securing low-cost carrier service at mid-size and smaller airports. A revenue guarantee agreement often includes a commitment to reimburse the contracted airline for revenue shortfalls determined by comparing the monthly aggregate gross passenger revenue to aggregate block hour guarantee amounts that typically cover the carrier�s costs. The agreement may require that any revenue shortfalls be covered up to an agreed upon cap for a set period of time. No reimbursement would be required when the airline�s gross passenger revenues were enough to cover the block hour guarantee amounts. Revenue guarantees are designed to assist the carrier during the first few years of service while it builds a passenger base of support. Airlines often lose money during the first 1-2 years in a new market.
Ellis�s vision for the airport is for it to become a greater engine for economic development in our region, and to expand awareness by the business and governmental leadership in the region of the airport�s central role in economic expansion. "I would like to see growth and better facilities for general aviation as well as the addition of a low-cost carrier for the airport. I believe that with good leadership, the airport will have major opportunities to drive significant economic development in the long term. We may have to change our way of viewing the airport�it is more than a place to just catch a plane. The airport should be one of the key creators of economic activity in our region.�
