Tiszavasvari is the stronghold of the Jobbik Party which is causing Hungarian Jews to fear for the future.
As the self-declared "capital" of the ultra-nationalist Jobbik Party, the town of Tiszavasvari prides itself on being a showcase for how Hungary might look one day.
Since winning control of the local council three years ago on a pledge to fight "gypsy crime", the party has been on a vigorous clean-up campaign, banning prostitution, tidying the streets, and keeping a watchful eye on the shabby outer Roma districts.
It even swore in its own Jobbik "security force" to work alongside the police, only for the uniformed militia, which drew comparisons with Hitler's brownshirts, to be banned by the Government.
Yet gypsies are not the only bogeymen Jobbik has in its sights, as a sign on the green opposite the mayoralty building suggests. In Hungarian and Persian it proudly announces that Tiszavasvari is twinned with Ardabil, a town in Iran.
There is no obvious reason why a drab rust-belt town in Hungary's former mining area should seek links to a city in a hardline Islamic Republic 3220km away.
The real purpose is to show their mutual loathing of Israel. "The Persian people and their leaders are considered pariahs in the eyes of the West, which serves Israeli interests," said Marton Gyongyosi, a Jobbik MP.
In Hungarian towns such as Tiszavasvari anti-Semitism has seen Jews wiped from the pages of history once before. Holocaust archives show a dozen names of Jewish victims from Tiszavasvari, part of the mass extermination programme that gave Jews in the Hungarian countryside a one in 10 chance of survival in 1944. Some simply disappeared, while others were murdered in Auschwitz, with more than 400,000 Hungarian Jews.
"You can see Jobbik's true nature through this," said Peter Feldmajer, the president of the Federation of Hungarian Jewish Communities, which represents an estimated 100,000 Hungarian Jews, nearly 90 per cent of whom still refuse to disclose their religion publicly. "They hate the Jewish people, and so does the Iranian Government."
Such concerns will loom large in the minds of delegates of the World Jewish Congress, which opens amid tight security today at the Soviet-era Budapest Intercontinental Hotel. The congress normally meets in Jerusalem, but this year it is convening in the Hungarian capital to highlight what its president, Ronald Lauder, the philanthropist and cosmetics heir, describes as a "dramatic" rise in anti-Semitism in the country.
Much of the blame for that is attributed to the Jobbik Party, which was founded just 10 years ago yet now represents the third-largest faction in politics, with 47 of 386 parliamentary seats.
Also in Lauder's sights is Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, whose centre-right Fidesz Party competes for many of the votes for which Jobbik vies, and who has been criticised for not taking a firm stance against anti-Semitism. "The number of anti-Semitic and racist incidents has risen dramatically in Hungary in recent years ... The Hungarian Government must do more to fight this phenomenon."
Earlier this year, the European Union said Orban's party was placing too many curbs on the judiciary and media, measures it said could ultimately disqualify the country from membership.
While Orban insists the measures have been necessary to end decades of corruption and inefficient government under his predecessors, the fear is they are making it easier for groups such as Jobbik to gain a foothold. The party was even boosted by a court decision to allow it to hold an anti-Zionist rally yesterday near Parliament. About 500 protesters gathered in Budapest where Jobbik leader Gabor Vona told them that compensation paid to Holocaust survivors could have been better used, local television reported.
Roughly translated as "the Movement for a Better Hungary", Jobbik's success has far outstripped similar movements in neighbouring former Communist states. Its appeal has been based partly on confronting problems associated with the country's half-million-strong Roma community, which many Hungarians see as crime-prone and welfare-dependent.
But as the global banking crisis hit Hungary hard, leaving more than one in 10 jobless, Jobbik revived a folk devil - the wealthy, all-controlling Jews, who were traditionally influential in the finance world.
Jewish community leaders have been attacked in the street and cemeteries desecrated. As well as anti-Semitism rallies, far-right biker gangs have held ugly demonstrations known as "Step on the Gas" days. Gyongyosi was castigated recently for saying that a "security" register should be created of Hungarian MPs and civil servants who were of "Jewish origin".
While verbal abuse has apparently increased, incidents of actual violence are still relatively rare in Hungary: Feldmajer recollects only about 50 physical attacks in 20 years. And it is fair to say that the bootboy image by no means fits all of Jobbik's supporters, many of whom are respectable working people. The talk is of frustration with politically correct attitudes to crime and immigration, of children no longer being taught Hungarian history properly in schools, and of a loss of faith in mainstream political parties, whose economic record since communism's collapse is patchy at best.

(Received 22 June 2006 / Accepted 17 October 2006)
Context.H2O is the most abundant component of astrophysical ices. In most lines of sight it is not possible to fit both the H2O 3 m stretching, the 6 m bending intensities with a single pure H2O spectrum. Recent Spitzer observations have revealed CO2 ice in high abundances and it has been suggested that CO2 mixed into H2O ice can affect the positions, shapes and relative strengths of the 3 m and 6 m bands.
Aims.We investigate whether the discrepancy in intensity between H2O bands in interstellar clouds and star forming regions can be explained by CO2 mixed into the observed H2O ice affecting the bands differently.
Methods.Laboratory infrared transmission spectroscopy is used to record spectra of H2O:CO2 ice mixtures at astrophysically relevant temperatures and composition ratios.
Results.The H2O peak profiles and band strengths are significantly different in H2O:CO2 ice mixtures compared to pure H2O ice. The ratio between the strengths of the 3 m and 6 m bands drops linearly with CO2 concentration such that it is 50% lower in a 1:1 mixture compared to pure H2O ice. In all H2O:CO2 mixtures, a strong free-OH stretching band appears around 2.73 m, which can be used to put an upper limit on the CO2 concentration in the H2O ice. The H2O bending mode profile also changes drastically with CO2 concentration; the broad pure H2O band gives way to two narrow bands as the CO2 concentration is increased. This makes it crucial to constrain the environment of H2O ice to enable correct assignments of other species contributing to the interstellar 6 m absorption band. The amount of CO2 present in the H2O ice of B5:IRS1 is estimated by simultaneously comparing the H2O stretching and bending regions and the CO2 bending mode to laboratory spectra of H2O, CO2, H2O:CO2 and HCOOH.

on top of that...jones is in his first year of jr. hockey after two years in the NTDP...while Murray is into his 3rd jr of jr. (and is a jr older than jones).
if you asked me who i thought would pan out as the better player i'd say jones v. quickly...but to say that Jones is *currently* better than Murray? sorry, but that just makes me laugh...in a *here and now* sense, Murray is easily the better player.

Another Look At The Flash Costume From Upcoming CW TV Series
Reported by Jay Cochran - 2014.03.11
Following the image released earlier today, we have a new image giving us our best look to date of Grant Gustin as the Flash/Barry Allen in the upcoming "Arrow" spin-off series featuring the red speedster coming to the CW network.
The costume for The Flash was designed by three-time Oscar winner Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costume for Arrow and whose motion picture credits include Academy Awards for her work on Alice in Wonderland, Memoirs of a Geisha and Chicago, as well as seven additional Oscar® nominations for films such as Snow White and the Huntsman, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Sleepy Hollow.
The Flash pilot is executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and David Nutter (all of whom also executive produce Arrow). Nutter is directing from a script by Berlanti & Kreisberg & DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns. Production on the pilot begins next week.
The Flash is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, and is based upon characters published by DC Comics.

Ripoff Report
U Of P - University of PhoenixBristol Street Costa mesa, California United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I went to the University of Phoenix 9 years ago. I obtained Student Loans through the University of Phoenix. They did the paperwork and had me sign.
They requested more money than I needed to take the classes I was taking. I questioned it and they said that was for future classes and they would return the unused amount to the bank.
Well, 9 years later and the Department of the Treasurey for the Student Loans (now run by the government) is coming after me for a huge Student loan amount... that I didn't use. In other words the University of Phoenix never returned the excess funds they received on my loan.
The Government has taken over $3,000. from my tax refund and is now taking money from my deceased husbands Social Security Benefits that I should be receiving.
I have notified everyone about the descrepancy and the Treasury Department says there is nothing I can do but pay off the remaining loan. I have contacted the University of Phoenix and they sent me a phoney accounting that "no one" could read or figure out! Why is this allowed to happen... Maybe we need a class action lawsuit!

We hope we have enticed you enough to want to spend some time in our special place .
Location description from owner
The Costa del Sol region
Competa is a typically Spanish Village which makes it special to us. Although many people speak English we find it fun trying to make our Spanish understood and it's amazing how quickly you can understand the language.
If you want, friendly, peaceful and away from the bustle of "Tea like mother makes" or "fish and Chips" then this is the holiday for you, walking, cycling, a cup of coffee whilst watching the world go by, maybe catching up on your e mails with Free WiFi in the town square (although we have avoided putting it in the house, as we feel you should "get away" from the stress of the normal) your on holiday after all!.
Malaga is an hours drive, there are many things to see in the old part of town, along with shops, restuarants etc., A trip to Ronda is a must, the amazing bridge and the gorge are a definate "not to miss". Seville and Cordoba should also be on your list, although it would possibly mean an overnight stay.
Nerja and the different beaches are 30 mins away, we love this place if it's a beach day, thank goodness there are Wc's along the beach area, it may not be the first thing that comes to your mind when thinking "beach" but with kiddies it's essential, (take your own paper though)! We have a cool bag/flask/containers, and a sun umbrella for you to take to the beach, please bring them all back though.
Torre Del Mar is another big beach area along with shops, the market is on a Thursday and is very good, Competa has a small market in the lower square on Saturday mornings where you can buy enormous cauliflowers, carrots, peppers, everything you will need but in EXTRA sizes, it never fails to amaze me how large everything is!
In spring the wild flowers are beautiful along with the almond, orange and lemon trees. In November/December the days are still beautiful and warm and the nights chilly, but we have a wonderful log fire in the lounge and also underfloor heating, you will see the Olives being picked for Olive oil and also for preserving, they taste awful straight from the tree, you have been warned!
Each season brings it's own charm to the area, whether it's snow capped mountains in the distance or evenings with the sun still shining at 9.30 pm and your still in the pool, it's an amazing place with lots to see and visit or just chill. Festivals are the norm in all the surrounding villages, join in the fun but be prepared to start at 10pm at night, sleep during the day.
Rolling hills, massive mountains, National parks, goat herds with distant bells clanging, bees buzzing, the odd cloud, distant sound of a cockerel and small birds singing, larks swooping, sound of laughter and children, odd dog barking, water lapping up the pool, sold it to you yet?

"True spain-paradise"
Stayed here 2 years ago when the villa was first being rented and my husband and I loved it. Clean, spacious and the views are breath taking. Waking up above the clouds is something you need to see for yourself. You do need a car but it is a perfect getaway spot. This is true spain. Enjoyed ourselves so much we are going back in 3 weeks so can't wait.
Owner's reply: Hi Emily, so glad you enjoyed your stay, I'm sure your going to love the renovations that have happened since your last visit. Enjoy your holiday and thank you for your lovely review. Lynn and Mick

DUUUUDEESSSSS, I'm so freakin' bored right now.
The Doctor (ninth gen., of course) was able to stabilise his TARDIS and quickly land it before it exploded.
"Where the hell am I?!" he said, in his exceedingly Northern accent.
The TARDIS had been on its way to Naboo (The Doctor had gotten very excited when finding out that the planets George Lucas had based his infamous saga on had been real), when suddenly the whole machine shook and then went out of control, flying in all the wrong directions and creating several black holes in its path, until The Doctor was finally able to land it... here.
He walked around for a bit, walking past loads of... what looked like giant golf balls sticking out of the ground. But the further he went, the weirder it got. Every car park he walked past, he noticed nearly everyone in this city drove '67 Chevy Impala's, or they had Vespa's. And when he looked up, he swore he saw the Millennium Falcon. And was that a moon, or...
So he did land on one of the Star Wars planets, then, but which one? He didn't recall seeing any of this, not even in the Extended Universe.
He decided to keep walking around, looking for clues. If only Sherlock was here, he thought, he'd know what was going on. Just as he thought this, he turned a corner and suddenly ended up on Baker Street?
"What is going on?!" he yelled, to no-one in particular.
Suddenly, a cab pulled up beside him, and out stepped... Moriarty?
"What are you doing here, Jim?!"
The consulting criminal looked bewildered for a second, and then laughed. "Hah, yeah okay. Sorry, 'Doctor'. Listen, you need to come and see The Creator, she needs to speak to you."
"Who is this Creator, one of your evil affiliates? Maybe you've replaced Sebastian? Or are you talking about Irene..."
Moriarty stopped and looked at him... and then suddenly it dawned on him. "You're... you're the actual Doctor! Okay, I have no idea how you got here, but you need to come see The Creator immediately..."
"I refu—"
The Doctor was interrupted as 'Moriarty' pulled a banana out of his bag, and waved it in front of The Doctor, who followed him until he was sat in the cab.
"Can I have that banana?"
Once he'd finished it, he was no longer distracted, and watched out his window. As they pulled out of Baker Street, then drove onto somewhere which looked exactly like Dantooine. In the distance he saw a castle... or was that Xavier's School for Gifted Mutants. Where the hell was he?
He drove past various Pepsi Max factories, and then he saw... a TARDIS? No, it must be an ordinary police box...but just as he thought this, he saw a couple open the door and sure enough, it was identical to his.
They stopped outside of Stark Industries. 'Moriarty' looked at his watch.
Out of nowhere, Hans Zimmer's Now We are Free started playing. It lasted for a minute, and then it faded out.
"Gladiator... nice," muttered 'Moriarty'. Then he led The Doctor up the tower to see... The Creator.
As he entered The Creator's office, he couldn't help but notice how many cans of Pepsi Max there was. Then, he saw her.
The Creator was... a 16 year old girl?
"Doctor," she said, "how did you find this place?"
The Doctor was too shocked to say anything.
"You're probably wondering where you are?" she said. She came out from behind her desk, and revealed that he had a wheelchair, much like Charles Xavier's?
"You are in Viki-land. Here, we are blocked off from the rest of the universe, only fandom is allowed here. This world was created by me, Viki. This is my husband, Andrew Scott." She directed to 'Moriarty'.
"You've somehow found a loophole, and broken out of TV-land." Then she turned to 'Andrew' and muttered, "Make sure Chris, David and Matt don't find him, they might get a bit... confused."
"I'm sorry," the Doctor interrupted, "but where am I?"
"Viki-land - the best world evER. Robert Downey Jr and Hans Zimmer are Gods of this world, James McAvoy is king, and so is Michael Fassbender. Richard Speight Jr is an archangel, more specifically the archangel of Pepsi Max and happiness, and throws it at people when they're feeling down..." The Doctor suddenly remembered how much Pepsi Max he'd seen in her office. "Maj. Damian Lewis and Capt. Misha Collins have complete control over our army (of mutants), and we have complete social equality, except for the Irish, Scottish and Welsh classes, who automatically are just better than everyone else." She paused briefly to drink some Pepsi Max.
"If there's social equality," said the Doctor, "then why do you need an army?"
"What's the point in TV and Movies if there's no war to inspire it?" answered The Creator. "World Peace is stupid, just think about how much worse our lives would be if there hadn't been war."
"Wow this shit is gettin' pretty serious we should end this soon, besides, Shannon's babysitting and therefore isn't even online right now," said Andrew.
The Creator sighed. "But I've never been good at endings!"
"What about if we all break into song?"
And then the whole population (528491 citizens, and if you understand that number then your training is complete) all assembled outside, and simultaneously began to sing;
"Well I'll be honest I don't really understand, but I fell down this hill, now I've got glue on my hands..."

Snow Day!
Western Washington County schools closed Tuesday
The wet blanket of snow which fell over western Washington County prompted officials at the Forest Grove, Banks and Gaston School Districts to cancel classes today as roads in upper elevations were expected to be slick. Emmaus Christian School in Cornelius also canceled classes today.
In Hillsboro, all schools are on a regular schedule but Zone #1 and Zone #9 are on snow routes.
The forecast calls for temperatures to rise steadily during the day, but to dip back down near the freezing mark overnight.

Ben Foster Cast in CONTRABAND
Ben Foster has joined Mark Wahlberg and Kate Beckinsale in a new thriller being developed called Contraband. This film is a remake of an Icelandic thriller originally titled Reykjavic-Rotterdam.
Wahlberg plays a former smuggler trying to go straight as a night guard. When his wife's brother (who got him the job) botches a smuggling run, his life is threatened and the night guard is dragged in for one more job. Foster plays the night guard's best friend and right hand man, who helps him take on the dangerous job.
Aaron Guzikowski, the writer behind 2009 Blacklist spec script Prisoners, wrote the script, and the star and producer of the original 2008 film, Baltasar Kormakur, will direct the remake for Working Title.

Farmer-trainer loves the rain
Page Tools
Wet-tracker Final Analysis responds to Greg Childs' hard riding to
win the Samson Handicap at Sandown yesterday.
Photo: John Donegan
Murtoa trainer Majella Ballantine has spent much of the past three months praying for rain and, with the recent break in the weather, her prayers were answered yesterday when wet-tracker Future Analysis was successful in the Samson Handicap (1600m) at Sandown.
But Ballantine, daughter of long-time Murtoa trainer Jack Delahunty, admitted that her prayers weren't totally directed at creating wet tracks for Future Analysis. It was also for her drought-stricken town, 300 kilometres north-west of Melbourne.
Ballantine said that rain during the past week has meant that her family could start sowing oats almost eight weeks later than usual.
"I know wet tracks are important for Future Analysis but for a farm that grows many products and runs sheep and cattle, the rain was so much needed," she said.
Ballantine, who has only four horses, said she took over Future Analysis three years ago by "sheer luck".
While visiting Cranbourne trainer Bruce Purcell, a bay gelding on Purcell's property took her attention. "I went up and gave it a pat and said, 'Can I possibly buy this bloke?' " Ballantine said.
Purcell said the horse had run third the previous Saturday at Sandown but he would do a quick ring-around of owners to see it they were interested in selling.
"As luck has it, all the owners wanted to sell and I threw him on the float and brought him down," she said.
Yesterday's win was Future Analysis' sixth since Ballantine bought him.
"I've had him in work for four months but have hardly done much with him as the tracks have been so firm," she said.
"You've got no idea how happy I was when the rain started coming down during the week and I knew if we got two inches at Murtoa, Melbourne would have got the same."
Jockey Greg Childs concurred with Ballantine that Future Analysis is an exceptional wet track performer. Ballantine, 35, who has been training for only four years, said plans for Future Analysis would be decided by the weather over the next few months.
Ballantine said that on the way to the races, she was rung by her father, upset that she had left the horse's rug in Murtoa and worried for the six-year-old, considering the wintry conditions at Sandown. "I've had a bit of luck. The trophy for the Samson Handicap was a rug, so at least the horse will be warm for the trip home," she said.
Future Analysis, who started at $11, was ridden by Greg Childs and won by a length-and-a-quarter from Red October ($21), with Korcula ($9) a half-head away third.
Krayzelburg, the $3.50 favourite, was caught three wide for most of the journey.

Thread: Audi unveils their race car for the 2013 DTM Season, introducing the RS5 DTM - Pictures and press release
Audi unveils their race car for the 2013 DTM Season, introducing the RS5 DTM - Pictures and press release
We are going to see all the 2013 DTM cars make their debut shortly and here is Audi's effort for the upcoming season. The 2013 Audi RS5 DTM will make its season debut at the Hockenheim track on May 5th. Audi will field 8 cars again. So what are the differences from the 2012 car? Well, the specifications for the cars were "frozen" so to speak at the conclusion of the 2012 season so the 2013 cars will not differ all that much.
However, Audi engineers looked over 4,000 areas of the 2012 car looking for improvements. They found areas to improve apparently, "Our technicians proved to be quite resourceful in the process," stated Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich who is the Audi Motorsport head. Will Audi take the title this season? Will they let it slip away again at the very end? It's going to be a hell of a season.
Pictures and press release below.
World Premiere in Geneva: Audi RS 5 DTM
- Audi Sport presents race touring car for the 2013 DTM season
- Close links to the sportiest Audi production models
- Jamie Green new team-mate of Mattias Ekström
At the International Motor Show in Geneva, Wolfgang Dürheimer, Member of the Board for Technical Development of AUDI AG, and Head of Audi Motorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich on Tuesday afternoon presented the racecar for the DTM 2013 – the Audi RS 5 DTM. The driver line-up for the new DTM season is also fixed.
"Motorsport is an integral part of the Audi DNA and is not an end in itself for our company," said Wolfgang Dürheimer. "At the end of the day, our customers benefit from the victories on the racetracks, because we attach great value to technology transfer between motorsport and production. Our new Audi RS 6 Avant, which we present here in Geneva, is a prime example: it combines downsizing of the engine with significantly less weight. And where do you learn this? In motorsport."
The technical specification of the DTM cars was 'frozen' in accordance with the regulations as the checkered flag fell at the last race of the 2012 season. Further development was only possible in extremely limited form. Over the winter, the Audi Sport DTM team concentrated on identifying if any of the 4,000 components in the racecar from the 2012 season offered any potential for optimization. "Our technicians proved to be quite resourceful in the process," explains Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich.
The model name Audi RS 5 DTM is new. As a result, Audi establishes a direct reference in the DTM to the company's successful production models. "The abbreviation 'RS' stands for the sportiest Audi models," said Dr. Ullrich. "The performance data of the current RS 5 and RS 5 DTM are very similar. This is why we are of the opinion that both fit perfectly to one another."
Eight Audi RS 5 DTM join the grid for the 2013 DTM. They are fielded by the three proven Audi Sport squads Abt Sportsline, Phoenix and Rosberg, which have reinforced in part by recruiting additional personnel. The allocation of the eight Audi factory drivers between the teams is now also fixed. Newcomer Jamie Green (Great Britain) is the new team-mate of two-time DTM Champion Mattias Ekström (Sweden) at Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline. The 30-year old is regarded as one of the fastest and best DTM drivers of the modern era. He drove the new Audi RS 5 DTM onto the stage during the presentation. "I already feel at home here at Audi and can hardly wait to contest my first DTM race for the four rings," said the Briton.
With a combined total of 25 race wins and two championship titles, Ekström and Green form the most successful driver combination in the entire DTM 2013 field. Nine DTM race wins unite the other Audi driver teams which have remained almost identical since the 2012 season: the double DTM Champion Timo Scheider (Germany) and Adrien Tambay (France) compete for Audi Sport Team Abt, Miguel Molina (Spain) and Mike Rockenfeller (Germany) for Audi Sport Team Phoenix, Filipe Albuquerque (Portugal) and Edoardo Mortara (Italy/France) for Audi Sport Team Rosberg.
The new DTM season starts on May 5 at the Hockenheimring. Ten events are on the 2013 agenda, six of them in Germany. On top of these six come races in Austria, Great Britain and the Netherlands and on August 4 the debut event at the Moscow Raceway in Russia. The Audi RS 5 DTM appears in action publically for the first time at the DTM test between March 26 and 29 at Barcelona (Spain) and from 9 to 12 April at Hockenheim, where a grandstand is open for spectators on the first day.

|The examples and perspective in this article may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. (July 2007) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
A closet (especially in North American usage) is an enclosed space, a cabinet, or a cupboard in a house or building used for general storage or hanging or storing clothes.
Modern closets can be built into the walls of the house during construction so that they take up no apparent space in the bedroom, or they can be large, free-standing pieces of furniture designed for clothing storage, in which case they are often called wardrobes or armoires. Closets are often built under stairs, thereby using awkward space that would otherwise go unused.
In current British and Pakistan usage, a wardrobe can also be built-in, and the words "cupboard" or walk-in-wardrobe can be used to refer to a closet. In Elizabethan and Middle English, closet referred to a larger room in which a person could sit and read in private but now refers to a small room in general.[1] In Indian usage, a closet often refers to a toilet. This probably originated from the word water closet, which refers to a flush toilet.
Broom closet: A closet with top to bottom space used for storing brooms, mops, vacuum cleaners, cleaning supplies, buckets, etc.
Coat closet: A closet located near the front door. Usually used to store coats, jackets, hoodies, sweatshirts, gloves, hats, scarfs, and boots/shoes. This kind of closet sometimes has shelving. It only has a rod and some bottom space used for clothes stored in boxes or drawers. Some may have a top shelf for storage above the rod.
Linen closet: A tall, narrow closet with shelves in a bathroom used for storing towels, sheets, washcloths, and toiletries.
Utility closet: A closet most commonly used to house appliances and cleaning supplies
Walk-in closet: A storage room with enough space for someone to stand in it while accessing stored items
Wall closet: A wall closet is a closet in a bedroom that is built into the wall. It may be closed by curtains or folding doors, which clothes can be stored folded on shelves.
Wardrobe: A wardrobe is a small closet used for storing clothes.
Pantry: A pantry is a closet or cabinet in a kitchen used for storing food, dishes, linens, and provisions. The closet may have shelves for putting food on.
Custom closet: A custom closet is a custom made closet that fits the room in your house.
Closet tax question in colonial America[edit]
Though some sources claim that colonial American houses often lacked closets because of a "closet tax" imposed by the British crown,[2] others argue that closets were absent in most houses simply because their residents had few possessions.[3]
Closet organizers[edit]
Closet organizers are integrated shelving systems. Different materials have advantages and disadvantages:[4][5]
- Wire shelving: Moderately difficult to install, wire shelves cannot hold much weight without giving in but are cheap.
- Wood shelving: Difficult to install, wood shelving is sturdier and more expensive than wire.
- Tube shelving: Easy to install, tube shelving involves few pieces and requires no cutting or measuring.

Ori Nesher an Israeli businessman living in Atlanta hired me to do some computer work at his home office in Buckhead neighborhood in Atlanta and also at his 2 apart complexes, one called Lakeview Trails located in College Park, GA and one called Creekside Forest in Decatur, GA.
I worked for this man all hours of the day trying to get his computers and server straightened out. I did free work and credited back some of the time spent working on his infrastructure as well. I purchased some parts also which I was never paid for.
I found out that the reason he needed my help was because his previous workforce got upset with him for not paying them and they took the computers and equipment out of his offices and left. I also found out from other vendors and from his OWN STAFF that currently work for him that he DOES NOT PAY vendors. [continued below]....
Also, Kimberly Ori's "regional manager" said she would pay me and they still have not made any effort to pay.
Ori Nesher, I am not going away until you pay up. You have to pay for services that you request and thats the bottom line.

should I leave flex conduit in the walls?
So I have a bathroom light switch on my 1960s ranch that currently is outside the bathroom door. I want to move it into the bathroom. Since I am also adding a bathroom fan I will be rewiring the light to a 2-gang box using new romex from the panel. However, the current switch is wired via a flex conduit that comes from the attic down to the receptacle that is likely stapled to the inside of the stud. I will attempt to remove the existing switch box but although I would love to remove the flex conduit entirely from the wall, I may be unable to unless I open a large hole(s) on the wall to find all of the staples. I would prefer not to have to make the holes.
My question is, if the conduit is cut flush to the access hole in the attic and the switch box is removed from within the wall, can I close the hole where the original receptacle was and leave the flex conduit/wire in the wall?
As long as the wire is disconnected at both ends, you can abandon the flex in place.

Jessica Alba is the December 2010 cover girl for ELLE Magazine. In the issue she chats about her movie role choices, her personality, confidence and her inspiration. Check out some highlights.
On owning up to her choice of roles: "I know I haven't been swimming in the deep end with some of the movies I've done. I wasn't trying to. I knew what they were."
On her personality: "I'm shy. I don't like being the center of attention. But when I do comedy, I lose all inhibition and introspection. I no longer care."
On gaining confidence in her craft: "I'd been so afraid of criticism ever since I was young. Every time I'd get a critique or some redirection, I'd always just take it very personally, but now I have no problem with it. It's just a chance to try things a different way. To play more with a character. It also gives me a chance to have some input, to use my voice."
On acting: "Good actors, never use the script unless it's amazing writing. All the good actors I've worked with, they all say whatever they want to say."
On being selective with her roles: "The time I'm not spending with my kid has to be worth it, so when I sat down with my agents after I was ready to go back to work, I told them: It's all about the directors."
On her feelings towards being a leading lady: "Now I prefer I'm not the lead. It's a totally different approach-way better."
On her early comedic inspiration: "When I was a kid, I watched Lucille Ball every day. I watched Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, and Peter Sellers."

For a woman who makes a living from speaking to thousands of people at seminars around the world, the one thing that gives Dr Libby Weaver joy is driving by herself on long road trips with the stereo turned up.
So it's apt that Australasia's leading nutritional biochemist and author is the new Lexus New Zealand ambassador, driving the company's hatchback hybrid, the CT200h.
Scroll down to see how you can be in the chance to win
With the school holidays starting, she's also giving Driven readers tips on surviving family road trips.
Dr Libby became involved with the brand in 2012 when she was offered the previous-generation CT hybrid to drive from Wellington to Auckland during her speaking tour.
• Read more Car Buyers' Guide: Lexus hatch
She was so impressed with Lexus' hybrid system that she researched the petrol-electric engine's fuel-saving technology.
"I'm all about sustainability and helping people take better care of their bodies, so the message that comes with the hybrid system is doing what we can for the environment," she said.
Lexus NZ was equally impressed with the Australian, who has lived in New Zealand for the past seven years and travels the world giving seminars, including speaking alongside American TV host Dr Oz in front of 9000 people in the US.
Lexus NZ assistant marketing manager Andrew Davis said the company was "thrilled to be partnering with Dr Libby, someone who shares synergies with the Lexus brand and philosophies".
"Dr Libby is renowned for helping Kiwis make meaningful lifestyle changes; ones that have a lasting impact on their health and wellbeing and the environment around them," said Davis. "It's the same positive outlook that resonates strongly with Lexus enthusiasts who choose hybrid technologies."
Dr Libby has written bestselling books such as Accidentally Overweight, Rushing Woman's Syndrome and Real Food Chef and is now in Australia writing her sixth.
But before she left she was given the keys to the latest CT200h.

"It's such fun to drive. I love the environmental sustainability of it, I love that you can go further for less - for me that's a catch-cry I link to the car," she said.
"Around town I drive it in the eco mode - it's fantastic in stop-start traffic. And then in the open road I would put it into sport mode for a couple of patches for that pleasurable drive."
Dr Libby's most memorable road trip was a day trip across the North Island - from New Plymouth to Napier with a lunchtime speech in Taupo.
"It was really amazing for me to drive across the country [compared to trying to drive across Australia]. The scenery was amazing.
• Read more: Dr Libby Weaver's latest winter wellness tip
"It was very special and very fun. I don't just talk to people about nutrition, because I approach things holistically, and one of the things I talk about is things that bring them pleasure and that was certainly a highlight for me.
"I love driving by myself. It's one of my favourite things in the whole world to do - I've got great music and a great car."
Her favourite music to listen to when driving is Massive Attack and John Denver, with some Kylie Minogue thrown in.
Dr Libby grew up in the Australian town of Tamworth and her first car when she was a university student was a late 1980s Corolla "with 135,000km on the clock".
"My dad thought I was crazy buying a second-hand car with so many ks on it, but I drove it until it gave up the ghost with 435,000km on it and only having to replace the brakes. My dad has now owned two Corollas."
Tips to help keep you safe behind the wheel
With school holidays starting this weekend many families will be taking road trips. Before you get behind the wheel, follow Dr Libby's tips for a safe journey.
• The best meal a driver should have before a long road trip is something that sustains you, so foods that contain protein and fat such as eggs.
An ideal breakfast would be a cooked egg meal "because when you eat warm food your digestive system handles that really well".
• Don't forget the kids because a cooked breakfast is sustaining for them, plus the more stable their blood-sugar levels are, the less likely they are to get hungry quickly or to fight. "When blood sugars are low we can get a bit snappy and impatient," says Dr Libby.
• Snacks are important. Rather than having to rely on poor-quality roadside snacks, pack things that people like - but don't pack carrot sticks if people aren't going to eat them. An easy snack is nuts and raisins, or try Dr Libby's "brain balls" from her recipe books: ground-up nuts and seeds plus dates for sweetness and cocoa powder for chocolate flavour.
• Forget drinking strong coffee before a long road trip. Dr Libby suggests drivers should have green tea because it has a small amount of caffeine in it and a substance called theanine - an antioxidant that helps buffer the caffeine and gives you a more gentle, relaxed state instead of being hyped up on coffee.

Around The Gaming World News Report 9.28.12
Hey everyone, welcome to the latest installment of Around The Gaming World. If this is your first time checking in I try to cover some of the major stories for each console in addition to news, which in my opinion, is the news of the week.
First let's start with the comments from last week.
I hate that about Muzyka and Zeschuk retiring. But like they say, all good things…
Posted By: IWC Member #23495867 (Guest) on September 21, 2012 at 07:54 AM
I'm sad to see them go. I knew it would happen one day I just wish that day were further away still. That being said, I wish them all the best.
The PS3 hardware is comically outdated. It's not that I'm one of those "graphics are the be-all end-all" types, but 256MB of RAM is pretty pathetic. We're dealing with jaggies, screen tearing, choppy cutscenes etc. when we shouldn't have to. Lots of big PS3 titles are coming over the next year, but the holiday season of 2013 is when I'd like to see PS4 debut.
Posted By: Jason Douglas (Guest) on September 21, 2012 at 04:12 PM
I agree that on whole the PS3 is getting a little old but it still pumps out some pretty looking games. To me, it seems that the PS3 tends to have the more superior looking games when compared to the Xbox. I'm an Xbox fanboy saying that too.
My Gen 1 60gb PS3 has been on its last legs for months now after it YLOD. I'm going to wait for the inevitable price drop on the first gen slim models before getting a replacement.
Posted By: Guest#8053 (Guest) on September 21, 2012 at 09:38 PM
Looks like Sony won't let that plan happen. Turns out that the new PS3 models unveiled overseas aren't coming to North America.
I was thinking about getting Wii U, but I decided it against it. I only buy portable gaming devices are the only things I tend to buy within the launch window was my PSP (slightly after launch), Vita (at launch), and 3DS (slightly after launch).
Consoles, I give a good five months or longer before I look at them. I'm not really in a rush to be the first one on the block to own one, ya know?
Posted By: David Redkey (Guest) on September 22, 2012 at 09:52 PM
Nowadays I also tend to wait on consoles before I make the call on buying. I know I'll be doing the same when it comes to the next-gen console I buy. I'll wait and see what happens. I wish I could do that approach with some of the other tech gadgets I buy though.
Thanks for the comments. And now, it's on to the news…
Halo 4 Is Done – New Halo developer 343 Industries has completed its first original Halo game. Halo franchise director Frank O'Connor said today during a press event in London (attended by Videogamer) that development on Halo 4 has been completed ahead of the game's launch exclusively on Xbox 360 November 6.
"We had a big piece of news yesterday back in the office, which is that the game is literally finished at this point," he said. "They are handing it off through the various certification processes and that, and we're done. It's been three years of incredibly hard work by about 300 people."
At a North America press event two weeks ago, O'Connor said Halo 4 was 99 percent complete, adding that the team was cleaning out the game's remaining bugs.
Halo 4 is the first numbered entry in the series developed outside of Bungie Studios, which officially . It is a direct sequel to 2007's Halo 3, picking up four years after the events of that game.
At least two more core installments–Halo 5 and Halo 6–will follow as part of the new Reclaimer Trilogy. It is rumored that the next Halo game will arrive on a future Microsoft platform, as the company is openly hiring staffers to create next-generation visuals and infrastructure to "drive the future of Halo."
Via: Gamespot
Now this probably isn't the biggest news but it's my column so I can report on things I like. Haha. In all seriousness though I am excited for the pending launch of Halo 4 in November. There are lots of eyes on 343 Industries to see how well they can pull of a Halo game. After all, this is the first Halo game, aside from Halo Wars, that is not made by Bungie. The success or failure of this game will probably determine whether we ever see Halo on the next-gen Xbox. All that being said the initial screenshots and reports on the game are promising. Now, all we have to do is wait for the game to launch in a little over a month.
Borderlands 2 Marathon Run – There's a first for everything and Matt Siegfried wanted to make sure he was the first to reach the Borderlands 2 level cap. So he did what any championship gamer would do, waited in line at a midnight release for Gearbox's new shoot'n'loot sequel then went straight home and got his game on.
Siegfried – who has already reached #1 rankings for a multitude of titles – wasted no time jumping into Borderland's 2. As soon as he popped it in the disc drive he played all the way up to reaching his goal. The craziest part is that he filmed nearly the entire thing, which you can watch on his TwitchTV page.
After less than two straight days spent blowing away bandits, skags and the other fowl creatures of Pandora his character reached level 50. Siegfried official time came in at 43 hours, 15 minutes and 23.00 seconds. Play began Tuesday, September 18 at 12:30 a.m. and ended at 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday, September 19.
Via: MTV Multiplayer Blog
I've taken a lot of crap from people because it took me so long to jump on the Borderlands bandwagon. Once I gave the original game a try I was hooked and pre-ordered the sequel. I'll be the first to admit, that I don't game as much as I would like anymore. Back in my college days I could dedicate days to a game but it's nothing like what this Borderlands 2 gamer did.
He reached the level cap, 50, in Borderlands 2 in 43 hours. Even when I was gaming all the time I can't imagine spending 43 straight hours playing a game. As much fun as it might be, I don't see playing continuously for nearly 2 days being enjoyable. Of course, I could just be old and cranky now making my opinion be jaded. I'm fairly sure this isn't a scam as the entire thing was livestreamed over on Twitch.TV. This is an impressive gaming accomplishment I suppose, but it's something I will never be able to do.
Mass Effect 1 Comes to PS3 – Are you one of the few gamers who hasn't wasted millions of hours playing Mass Effect? Well get ready to, in fact, do just that: today BioWare announced the impending release of Mass Effect Trilogy. Set for release on November 6, the $59.99 compilation will include all three games, though it doesn't seem as though it'll have the DLC.
This may be a bit frustrating to some fans, considering the third game in the series was released only this year at the same price, and now it's getting what's essentially a $40 price cut. Even still, having a budget priced compilation for the holidays makes sense. And by paying the premium, you got to enjoy that content earlier and more often than anyone buying the trilogy.
That said, DANG! Sixty bucks for three big ol' games. Pretty good deal.
Via: Inside Gaming Daily
I'm not shocked to see that BioWare/EA is releasing a bundle of all 3 Mass Effect games. But, the biggest news out of this is the trilogy will be available on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. This will be the first time that PS3 gamers will be able to play Mass Effect 1 on the Playstation. The original Mass Effect was an Xbox exclusive but now it seems that EA/BioWare has gotten the greenlight to release the game on Playstation.
If you haven't played the Mass Effect series this is a great chance to get started. The bundle will retail for $60 so you're basically paying $20 a game. From what I can tell the DLC should be in place for the earlier games. I'm not sure how much of the DLC will be included with Mass Effect 3. If you already own the games, this bundle isn't for you. However, it would make a great Christmas gift for your friend that likes RPGs but hasn't tried the series.
Assassin's Creed Ezio Trilogy – It turns out Assassin's Creed 2, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Assassin's Creed: Revelations formed a full-on trilogy. We also thought of them more as a game and its two spin-offs, like what Halo 3: ODST was to Halo 3. But it turns out we're idiots, and the "Ezio Trilogy," as Ubisoft's dubbed it, is getting a compilation release.
It includes all three games (plus some DLC) on one disc, but because of that, it's only available on PS3. We're assuming that has something to do with the Sony system's Blu-ray discs having many times the capacity of the DVDs that the Xbox 360 uses.
The Ezio Trilogy drops Nov. 13 for $39.99.
Via: Complex
Ubisoft isn't going to let the BioWare folks have sole run when it comes to releasing a trilogy of games. They have officially announced the Ezio Trilogy that will collect the last 3 Assassin's Creed games on one blu-ray disc. So that mean this trilogy is only available to you PS3 owners. The nice thing here is that the game will only be $39.99 at launch. That's a pretty nice price for three games. If you're someone like me who only dabbled in the first couple AC games this is an interesting buy. But, if you already own the games there is no reason to buy the trilogy. I'm sure this will help to get more people interested in the upcoming launch of AC 3 as well.
Wii U Is Region Locked – Those of you hoping to get your hands on import games for Wii U — and actually have the ability play them — are out flat out of luck. According to a recent report, Nintendo has confirmed that the upcoming Wii U console will in fact be region locked.
Apparently, Nintendo confirmed the decision while speaking with CVG, meaning that games purchased in the US, Europe or Japan will only be playable on consoles built for those specific regions.
Via: MTV Multiplayer Blog
It seems in a matter of days Wii U preorders were all taken. The Deluxe version was the first to sell out, but the basic followed it shortly thereafter. Is anyone surprised by this? Personally, I don't find this surprising. There are always people that want to be first adopters. Some first adopters want to play the new system and I think there is a small group that gets the pre-orders just to turn around and sell them on eBay for a higher price.
Bad news for anyone that would want to import games. There are often Japan only games released for the Nintendo consoles and now if you want to play on your US Wii you are out of luck. But this really shouldn't be a surprise about the only Nintendo console that wasn't region locked was the DS. Does this really matter to you guys out there? Is this going to be the deciding factor when it comes to purchasing a Wii U? Personally, I see this as a non-factor for the majority of gamers.
Ecco The Dolphin is Making a Comeback? – According to the designer on the original Sega Genesis title Ecco the Dolphin, Ed Annunziata, the chances for a new game in that series are looking up.
"Ecco fans, I need you to follow & tweethank @scottfoe, he convinced SEGA to meet with me now chances of a new Ecco the Dolphin x100!"
Annunziata is referring to Scott Foe, a consultant on mobile and social games who worked with Sega during the Dreamcast years. Foe apparently got Annunziata in the door to talk to Sega about reviving the classic Ecco the Dolphin action-adventure franchise.
For those too young to remember, the Ecco the Dolphin titles follow a bottlenose dolphin that travels through time to fight violent aliens in the ocean. Which, let's be honest, is what we all assume dolphins spend their time doing, anyway.
The original Genesis title was one of that console's biggest hits. Ecco returned in Ecco II: The Tides of Time in 1994 on the Genesis, the Sega CD, and the Game Gear.
In 2000, Sega attempted to reboot the series when it released Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future for the Dreamcast. No one involved with the development of Ecco the Dolphin returned to work on Defender of the Future. The opposite would be true if Sega gives an Annunziata-developed Ecco the green light.
We've contacted Sega and Annunziata to discuss Ecco the Dolphin's future. We'll update with their comments. In the meantime, enjoy this crappy dolphin doodle from Annunziata's office whiteboard:
Update: In another Tweet, Annunziata confirmed that soundtrack composer for Ecco the Dolphin, Spencer Nilsen, "is on board." Sounds like the project is going forward.
Via: Venture Beat
Ecco is not one of those franchises I was really into as a kid. This is probably because I was a big Nintendo fanboy during Sega vs. Nintendo console wars. However, my friend had a Sega Genesis and this was a game I used to play all the time at his house. The game was fun and the idea pretty original.
What is exciting to see is that if this reboot happens the original creative team looks to be getting back together. Some of you guys might not care, but I really do like to see moments where games from my past are brought back to life today. I hope this reboot happens, and I hope it's a raging success.

The Trip Story in Sri Lanka
... 187 from outside of the airport, but when I asked security at the arrival hall he directed me to take Highway Bus from parking lot of Bandaranayake Airport. When you walk through the arrival gate, you will see there are buses parking and open the door. Just see where everybody's going with their backpack or sometimes suitcase, then you ask or follow them. It was raining when I arrived, the information and sign wasn't so clear about the highway ...

... as you do not also pose in the photo yourself, but I think in this instance I may have made a cultural faux-pas, as people nearby seemed to become quite upset with me. One man even approached me, grabbed my arm and started shouting, so I ran off quickly down the road!
After returning to my guesthouse to shower, Nimal (the man I met on the train yesterday) arrived in a tuk-tuk to take me back to his house. When we arrived, he took me straight to his local temple, where I laid ...

... very crowded busses and arrive 4h later at our destination – traveling is just as much part of the journey as the destination itself. In Anuradhapura we rented bicycles and cycled to Mahavihara where the cultural buildings, the oldest tree (in the world…? Not quite sure), brazen palace and the shining white Dogobas reside.

There are a few selected Japanese Vaio Tap 20 and Vaio E-Series 14P Fall 2012 models that will have their release delayed until November/December 2012.
Earlier this month, Sony unveiled the two updated VAIO models that would support the new Windows 8 OS, the VAIO Tap 20 and the VAIO E-Series 14P Fall 2012 version. However, a recent announcement in Japan has revealed that the release dates for the two new product lines are to be extended, at least until November to December 2012. Sony officially stated that the cause of the release date extension was due to certain manufacturing delays.
Both the VAIO Tap 20 and E-Series 14P Fall 2012 version feature hybrid options that combine the functionality of regular PC's with mobile tablets, which was largely inspired by the dual OS-type functionality presented by Windows 8 (using both the standard and modern UI). The Tap 20 features an all-in-one "slab" type PC, while the E-Series 14P Fall 2012 version is a step-up from its earlier incarnation, updated with the Windows 8 OS and a touchscreen for easy access of its modern UI.
The models that are included in the release date extension are as follows:
For the Sony VAIO Tap 20:
For the Sony VAIO E-Series 14P Fall 2012 version:
Sony has previously announced that these models are to be released at the same date as the official release of Windows 8 (October 26, 2012). With the extension announced, it is expected that the date will most likely move to November (Tap 20) or by the start of December (E-Series 14P). Japanese consumers won't have to wait that long though, because the exact release date will be announced soon.

In what ways is Vaser liposuction superior to a Zerona procedure for removing excess fat from hips and thighs?
Vaser or Zerona for Hips and Thighs?
Doctor Answers 6
Vaser Liposuction
Zerona is an external device which may or may not have any impact on the fat cells and their viability. The Vaser actually works, and reduces the fat into small particles so they can safely be evacuated. Comparing the Vaser and Zerona is apples and oranges. The Vaser is internal ultrasound, the Zerona is an external laser. The Vaaser is superior in every way but pain. The Zerona is painless until you have to pay the bill. The Vaser hurts physically, and when you have to pay the bill.
Web reference: http://www.facebook.com/elitemdspa
Vaser or Zerona for Hips and Thighs?
WOW! Like apples and oranges, these two techniques are SO different. Zerona is a NON INVASIVE therapy, no anesthesia, done over many sessions. To attain minimal if any results. While Vaser or any type of liposuction is invasive one time operation under anesthesia, with result in 99% of the cases. Costs are close to each other. I have an idea, ask the Zerona doctor for a 50% refund when after 6 sessions you see no improvement so you can have a deposit for liposuction. Try that.
Liposuction vs. non-invasive machine for fat
I do not have a Zerona, but what I have seen si that it does not do much. Liposuction using Vaser or other techniques does the job when a skilled surgeon does the procedure.
Web reference: http://www.stevenwallachmd.com
You might also like...
Vaser vs. Zerona
Lets make this simple. There is absolutely no comparison as VASER is far superior in direct fat reduction and contouring.
Vaser Liposuction for Hips and Thighs
Vaser liposuction uses ultrasonic sound waves to emulsify the fat. This also creates a warming effect and decreases the amount of force required to remove the individual fat cells. The sound waves radiate which allows one to create a smoother contour. Zerona may not provide a result that is as predictable and reliable compared to the Vaser however I am aware of not such comparison studies. In general my advice is that liposuction is liposuction. It really does not matter which mouse trap is used - Zerona, Smart lipo, ProLipo, etc... The hammer used to build the house doesn't make the house. The result you want is created by your plastic surgeon. Look for a reputable surgeon not the tool.
Vaser or Zerona for Hips and Thighs?
Let's reverse the question. Since Zerona uses the power of a laser pointer and claims it melts fat, the question to ask is how can ANY mode of liposuction not be superior to this form of placebo? If you need liposuction, you will do far better with the VASER in the hands of a board-certified Plastic Surgeon.

The documentary "The Girls in the Band," screening tonight as part of the Milwaukee Film Festival, shines a spotlight on overlooked female jazz musicians dating back to the 1930s. Photo provided by Milwaukee Film Festival.
The golden age of jazz may have been an important period for America...but it wasn't such a great era for female musicians. Not that there weren't any--there were actually far more than most people realize, and very good ones at that, evident in the new documentary "The Girls in the Band."
The film--being screened one last time at the Milwaukee Film Festival today, with director Judy Chaikin in attendance--pays a tribute long overdue, to female jazz musicians from the 1930s through the present.
Its being shown at 5 p.m. today at Fox-Bay Cinema Grill, 334 E. Silver Spring Drive, Whitefish Bay. Tickets are $6 to $10 at the box office and at mkefilm.org.
And the film should get out just in time for you to make it to Turner Hall Ballroom, 1040 N. 4th St. to see another girl in a band: Monica Martin, the exceptionally talented frontwoman for whimsical Wisconsin pop group PHOX. The up-and-coming band is finishing up a national tour as opener for Blitzen Trapper. We'll admit the headliner was a bit dull when it opened for Brandi Carlile at the Riverside Theater last fall--but its new album "VII" is a lot of fun.
Tickets for that 8 p.m. show are $15 and available at the door, the Pabst Theater box office (144 E. Wells St.), the Riverside Theater box office (116 W. Wisconsin Ave.) and pabsttheater.org.
