It's inspiring to see something as ambitious as Live Oak Music Hall & Lounge come along. Owner Bill Smith's vision of a classy live-music venue with a chef-driven menu aimed at graduates of the club scene is appealing -- like a rock version of what Caravan of Dreams once did.
Smith has connections in the music industry, including his son Casey of The Where House, and has done construction on popular venues such as The Usual. But he's learning that running a restaurant-bar is not the same as building one. He recently replaced some staffers and hired operations manager Blake Barker, formerly of Scat Jazz Lounge. Hopefully Barker is up to the task of sharpening the Live Oak experience.
There's room for improvement in the overall flow of the place, from little things like adjusting the inconsistent lighting to the nonstop traffic. Our table was too dark to see our food, but the table next to us blazed under its spotlight. Diners were also witness to a busy parade, consisting of customers headed for an oddly positioned restroom and kitchen staffers making repeated trips to get ice.
In the bar, one oft-used bottle of liquor was stored on a shelf too high, requiring the bar crew to climb up and down every time they needed it. When we tried to ask the bartender for a recommendation on one of the dozens of craft beers Live Oak offers, he was so busy that he avoided eye contact. The place seemed understaffed. Our industrious, eager-to-please server was straining to run from the dining room to the rooftop. It made no sense.
But the food was a pleasant surprise. The vaguely Southwestern menu has some unusual twists, such as the use of water buffalo in burgers and in a chicken-fried version. The beef is listed as grass-fed, and there are half a dozen entree salads, including a stuffed avocado ($14) filled with tuna and chicken salad over mixed greens. This exceeds, by far, your typical bar food.
Calamari ($10) can feel trite, but Live Oak's version incorporated fresh jalapeño slices and thin tobacco onions into that deep-fried mix; they elevated the dish with flavor and heat. The Mid-East trio ($10) was a crazy-big appetizer -- large enough for four to split -- with three Middle Eastern dips and a bowl of pita triangles, soft and warm. The trio consisted of a pale and creamy hummus, plus a roughly chopped tabouli salad with chunks of cucumber and tomato. Dip No. 3 was muhammara, a rustic hot-pepper puree with random chopped nuts.
Hush puppies ($5), five to an order, were house-made and very good, although they seemed like an odd appetizer. They were perfect circles with extra-crunchy crusts and solid cornmeal centers; oddly, they came with tartar sauce. Two come automatically with the fish and chips ($16), so be forewarned unless you really like hush puppies.
The fish in the fish and chips was walleye, a northern white fish with a subtle crispness to the flavor. The server said the crust came from a beer batter, but it didn't have the thick, crunchy texture you might expect. Instead, it was a thin, darker crust that was difficult to break with a fork. Fries were long, curly strings, a little undercooked in places, but still fun to eat and full of potato flavor.
The chicken-fried water buffalo ($22) had a thicker, softer crust, and the meat itself was quite tender. It was more like a breaded cutlet than a chicken-fried steak. The surprise was how underseasoned it seemed, as if it had been cooked without salt or pepper. It came with buttery mashed potatoes, with bits of potato still evident, and a vegetable medley -- zucchini and yellow squash, mostly, but happily not overcooked.
Entrees come with choice of house or Caesar salad, and those were both good, with hand-torn greens and house-made dressing; the Caesar came topped with thick shavings of Parmesan. Chef Mikel Steen previously worked at the Fort Worth Boat Club. You can see the thoughtfulness in the kitchen, even if the results aren't always consistent.
One of Live Oak's early bumps has reaped an immediate benefit for craft-beer fans. Optimistic about the viability of craft brews, the place opened with a big selection of bottles. But the anticipated sales didn't happen, so the bar has been paring down its selection and offering it at a deep discount. We got a bottle of the very crafty Le Merle Saison Farmhouse Ale for only $8. Live Oak's journey may have started a little rocky, but this is the kind of stumble a diner can like.

Click here to read Evening Chronicle's preview
Former Coronation Street star Kevin Kennedy and X Factor finalist and West End actress Brenda Edwards are to star in the first ever We Will Rock You Arena Tour, following their previous success in the roles. Kevin Kennedy, best known for his role as 'Curly Watts' in the long running soap Coronation Street, will reprise the role of 'Pop', a librarian who is stuck in his 'hippie' past and is searching to find answers to the end of rock music. Brenda Edwards who rose to fame in ITV1's talent show 'The X Factor' will again play the domineering role of 'Killer Queen', Head of Globalsoft, the corporation responsible for the banning of all instruments and musical originality. Kevin and Brenda are currently starring in the West End production at the Dominion Theatre and will join the UK leg of the world tour to perform in Newcastle at the Metro Radio Arena from Friday 7th – Sunday 9th June 2013.
They will be joined by MiG Ayesa (Rock of Ages, Thriller Live) who will be reprising the role of 'Galileo' after successful international and West End runs since 2005 and Lucie Jones, who shot to fame as an X Factor finalist in 2009 and went on to perform in Les Miserables will perform the role of Meat.
Unprecedented success in theatres around the world has paved the way for 'We Will Rock You' to make the step into Arenas, where the Rock Theatrical will be performed in front of thousands of rock fans every night.
Speaking about the tour, Kevin Kennedy said: "I'm so excited to return to the We Will Rock You Tour, especially to be a part of the first ever Arena Tour, rocking out to thousands of fans every night. It's going to be huge!"
Brenda Edwards is equally thrilled: "I love performing as Killer Queen and can't wait to take We Will Rock You back on the road!"
Lauren Samuels will return to the role of Scaramouche after her run at the Dominion in 2011/2012. Khashoggi will be played by Sean Kingsley who has appeared in Les Miserables, Cats, and Billy Elliot.
The production is written and directed by Ben Elton, who has fashioned a hilarious futuristic comedy around more than 24 of Queen's biggest hit songs delivered in a show that boasts the scale and spectacle that marked Queen's live performances.
"This show is all about legend," says Ben Elton. "We take the legend of Queen and create our own fantastical story of young kids battling the might corporations who want to suppress their individuality and their love of music. They need a hero who can help them in their struggle, and we have two – the dreamer Galileo and the sassy rock chick Scaramouche. Guess who ends up winning?"
On announcing the Arena tour, Queen's Brian May said: "After our first 10 years in Rock Theatricality, this is the next giant step for We Will Rock You - and the show will feature a brand new arena-size design - a big night out for all!"
With a wink and many ironic sideswipes, WE WILL ROCK YOU is more than just a show title, more than a musical, and more than a rock concert - it is a promise: WE WILL ROCK YOU!
Tickets costing £22.50, £29.50, £32.50, £39.50 & £42.50 are available online, from the booking hotline number 0844 493 6666, and in person at the Metro Radio Arena Box Office.

Austin: Lance Armstrong has stepped down as a board member of Livestrong, the cancer-support charity he founded in 1997.
"Lance Armstrong has chosen to voluntarily resign from the board of directors of the Livestrong Foundation to spare the organisation any negative effects as a result of controversy surrounding his cycling career," Livestrong chairman Jeff Garvey said in a statement.
"We are deeply grateful to Lance for creating a cause that has served millions of cancer survivors and their families."
Armstrong, a survivor of testicular cancer, had previously stepped down as Livestrong's chairman.
The 41-year-old had his seven Tour de France victories nullified and was banned from cycling for life last month after the International Cycling Union (UCI) ratified the United States Anti-Doping Agency's (USADA) sanctions against him.
USADA published a report that said the now-retired rider had been involved in the "most sophisticated, professionalised and successful doping programme that sport has ever seen".
Livestrong spokeswoman Katherine McLane said that Armstrong "remains the inspiration" for the charity and is its largest donor, having contributed $7 million. She said Armstrong will remain involved with Livestrong, just not as a board member.
Garvey added: "Lance Armstrong was instrumental in changing the way the world views people affected by cancer.
"His devotion to serving survivors is unparalleled and for 15 years, he committed himself to that cause with all his heart on behalf of the Livestrong Foundation."
Armstrong resigned from the board of directors for Livestrong on November 4. He had previously resigned as chairman from the charity he founded October 17 but had kept a seat on the board.
Armstrong has not comment publicly on the USADA report and recently returned to Austin from Hawaii. Over the weekend, he posted a photograph on Twitter of him lying on a couch at his home with seven yellow Tour de France jerseys mounted on the wall.
He also has lost his personal sponsors, including Nike and brewing giant Anheuser-Busch, who dropped their contracts with him or said they would not renew when current deals expire.
The USADA report said Armstrong and his teams used steroids, the blood booster EPO and blood transfusions. The report included statements from 11 former teammates who testified against Armstrong.
Armstrong denies doping, pointing to hundreds of passed drug tests. But he chose not to fight USADA in one of the agency's arbitration hearings, saying the process was biased against him.

Taming The Tongue HTML version
covenant. See words on earth are listened to in the heavens. You speak cursing words, demons are just waiting, and
they become empowered to begin to operate, so you can speak words into your own life. You can agree with words
about your own life, and that way as you begin to give voice to them, that will cause demons to operate against you.
You can agree with the words other people speak, and then when you agree with them and begin to repeat them,
what happens then our demons are unleashed. See, agreement on the earth, and then giving voice to what we've
agreed with, activates things in the supernatural realm. We have to understand the importance of that.
Of course, as you begin to realise this and start to fast, to break negative words and to tame the tongue - Bible says
no man can tame it, only the Holy Ghost can tame your tongue. The first part of taming your tongue is to realise what
it's saying, so I want to give you some pictures, some word pictures of what the tongue is likened to, or what our
words are likened to. I'm going to give you about six different word pictures. I'll show you where they're found in the
Bible, but I want you to get the picture of it, because as you get the picture of it, you begin to think my God, are my
words like that! This sweet person sitting there and you look so nice and we all look lovely, got our hands raised to
Jesus today and then tomorrow something else is coming out of our tongue, see?
The Bible says it shouldn't be like that. You know today you're blessing God, and tomorrow you're cursing someone
near to you, that you're supposed to be loving. Come on now. I want to give you some word pictures. These are good
ones I found in the - these are really [laughs] man, I was shocked. In 2 Timothy 2, Verse 17, it says in talking about
certain kinds of people, it says their word eats like cancer - or if you look up the original it means like Gangrene. I
don't know if you've ever seen Gangrene. Gangrene is where the flesh has actually died, and not only has it died, it's
started to turn green and give a horrible smell off, and it not only does that, it begins to poison the body. So if a
person gets Gangrene in them, if they get Gangrene in them, then what happens is you've got to amputate that limb.
There isn't any remedy. The flesh is actually dying, and it's starting to turn septic, and if you don't deal with it, it begins
to poison the whole body. When a person's got Gangrene, death is imminent. When there's Gangrene, death is
imminent. In the medical field - and I don't know a lot about it - but if they see Gangrene all the emergency bells go
off. You're into that operating theatre right quick, because it will poison the whole system. You can't have Gangrene in
one bit. It gets in and affects the whole lot, so it says there, words, it's talking about certain words eating your whole
life away, like a gangrene would eat a limb away, and poison the whole body.
Gangrene - ask somebody have you got gangrenous words? Oh, cancer. See the word cancer? Uses words like a
king. It's like it eats away, like a worm eating away. Think about that. That's a horrible picture. I don't like the smell of
that. I don't want to have cancer. I'll get you another couple of words. Here's another word found in James, Cha pter 3,
Verse 8. Just read the verse there, and it talks about words, or the tongue. Here it is; No man can tame the tongue,
for it us unruly or uncontrollable evil, full of deadly poison. Now that word poison there actually has two meanings to
it, so we're going to give you both meanings. You notice what it says, it says deadly. That means it carries death. The
tongue can carry death.
Imagine just carrying a little bag around on you and you got something to give to people. Here it is. Some people
have got a little bag of it, some people have got a huge bag of it, but here they're carrying it around and you know
what it is? That word deadly means death bearing. They carrying around death, ready to give it to someone, and the
word poison has two meanings. Num ber one, it means rust. It means literally rust. Any of you know about rust? Men
know about rust. Get it in your car, it's a big problem. In fact rust, you know you get it in your car, and it starts off as a
little bit, then it begins to spread and it starts off like a little wee bit on the surface, and then it begins to eat. Finally it's
eaten the metal out, then it begins to spread out, so you kind of cover it up and patch it up but it breaks out again. So
you cover it again and patch it up, breaks out again, put some paint over it. But in the end if there's rust there, it
always comes through the paint. No matter how good the car looks, the rust always come through the paint, so no
matter how sweet you dressed yourself up, no matter how good we look on th e outside, if we've got bitterness and
negativity in our heart, it's a rust that eventually shows through that fine paintwork of yours.
You go along and test a new car if you want to buy a second car. You go along and test it, the thing you want to look
for is rust. Some cars, in England, they put salt on the road where there's a lot of snow. Of course the car gets the
salt under it, and it just eats the thing out. You've got this fine looking car, but underneath she's all eaten out. It's
actually not fit for the road, so you take your car - now one of the things they'll put the car off the road for is rust. So
you get your car down there and it looks fine, starts up, got a lovely stereo pumping, looks nice, everything's painted
up and looks good. Take it down there and then they cancel the Warrant. There's no new Warrant given to you and
you say why? Why didn't I get a new Warrant? Look at the stereo! Look at the car seats. Look at the colour, look at
the paint on the thing, it's brilliant! And the y say it's got rust underneath in the chassis - so it's not roadworthy.
How about a Christian being not roadworthy? Called on a great mission, but no Warrant of Fitness. Got no Warrant of
Fitness, what happens? You leave your car parked out on the road, no Warrant o f Fitness, come on. Now don't tell

Impala Cantina y Taqueria has been on the lips of H Street regulars since 2010, when the restaurant's co-owner Troy Hickman and Erik Bruner-Yang of Toki Underground doled out tacos from the window of Philadelphia Water Ice. Signage went up for a full-fledged restaurant at 1358 H St. NE and the years came and went.
No Impala.
Finally, photos from inside the two-story restaurant offer some hope that we'll be throwing back tequila shots by September. Co-owner Troy Hickman has a way with interiors; a carpenter, he helped make Toki Underground look so preternaturally cool. So Impala's all about the little touches, including floors that are raw hickory and, in some places, earthy brick. The glass is hand-blown. The second floor, which will be an intimate dining area with moody lighting to complement the first level's more casual bar, is nearly complete.
More than two years after Impala's 2010 pop-up, the city is swimming in tacos. At Tacos El Chilango, they come on Styrofoam plates, while other places serve mahi mahi tacos atop wooden boards, like rare cheese. There are even two competing taco joints just steps from Impala: Chupacabra and Sol Mexican Grill. Hickman isn't sweating it. The menu at Impala, he says, will differ from what's already available in the neighborhood, with entrees such as pozole (a hearty hominy soup), grilled steak and roasted pork, shrimp with pumpkin mole and guava empanadas con crema.
You can taste Impala's tacos at the Pug on Tuesday nights, when they're served at the bar for a couple of bucks apiece. Among the options the chefs have been testing is a vegan tofu chorizo sausage.

Bought a house that is roughed out inside. Do I lay floors first or sheetrock first? Does it matter other than messing up the floors with sheetrock dust?
Bought a house that is roughed out inside. Do I lay floors first or sheetrock first? Does it matter other than messing up the floors with sheetrock dust?
Finished floors will always be the last thing you do. Get all your electrical and plumbing dealt with, finish the walls, then install doors. I would be inclined to paint at this point, then install cabinets. Floors can be done before or after cabinets, your choice.
Come to Hidden Content for all your DIY needs
Get your drywall finished and at least primed before you do your tile
That's right: drywall first. Don't sit the drywall on the floor, hang it about 1/2" higher than the floor.
When possible we like to get the paint on the walls then install the hard flooring, then install the trim / baseboards. You'll get a neater final product if you can keep the subs from damaging the floors.
I'm not familiar with your phrase "floor stripping?" Are you talking about hardwood flooring?
Come to Hidden Content for all your DIY needs
But yeah, in general hold the hardwoods until much later in the process, the exception being kitchens, where cabinets are best delayed until after the hardwood is down, sanded, and has at least a first coat; less risk of bumping the cabinets, which after all are the most expensive item.
Remove not the ancient landmark, which your fathers have set.
Vacuum the floors immediately before each phase of painting, especially if you're spraying the paint on. This will prevent dust from getting into the paint.
The "Senior Member" designation under my name doesn't mean I know a lot, it just means I talk a lot.I've been a DIYer since I was 12 (thanks, Dad!). I have read several books on various home improvement topics. I do not have any current code books I can refer to. I was an apprentice plumber for two years.

2014 World Cup: Ghana FA technical director urges Kwesi Appiah to prove mettle in Brazil
K. Appiah
By Rahman Osman
Follow Rahman on Twitter: @iamrahmanosman
Ghana Football Association technical director Francis Oti Akenten has urged Kwesi Appiah to cease the opportunity and make a HUGE mark at the 2014 World Cup.
Appiah is the first indigenous Ghanaian coach to lead the Black Stars at the World Cup after Serbs Ratomir Djukovic and Milovan Rajevac guided them in Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010.
The Black Stars reached the quarter-final of the last edition and were seconds away from a historic semi-final berth.
But Asamoah Gyan missed a late minute penalty and Ghana drew 1-1 with Uruguay after extra-time time but were eliminated on penalties.
Akenten says the ex-Ghana captain must improve that performance to establish himself as a renowned coach in world football.
"Kwesi (Appiah) has done well so far and many did not give him a dog's chance when he first took office,†Akenten told GHANASoccernet.com
"It is only when you climb a higher height that you see that there are higher heights to climb.
"There is no limit to how far Kwesi can go with the team and we are all united in pushing him to achieve what has never been done before.
"Once the headache of qualification had been achieved the next target had to be set and that is to go further than we did in the previous World Cup competitions and Kwesi will have to work harder to leave his legacy on the team at the world stage.â€
Ghana are housed in group G which includes tournament favorites Germany, Portugal and the USA.

NONI(9JA 1ST SON) says:April 24, 2014 10:47 amsee as person be like raining season.... How can such a person be a country's football technical director and you expect such a country to win a single match in Brazil. Tweeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa
Benny says:April 24, 2014 10:20 amOti Akenteng please stop the nonsense.You will all be blamed if AA fails to deliver.You recently were blindly claiming Dauda is AA favourate goalkeeper and that you all know what he can do meanwhile this guy Dauda is warming bench all because he is paying all of you. AA can only succeed if all of you look beyond your personal short term divergent interest and be honest and choose players on merit not by taking bribes from Dauda,Inkoom,Aful etc . Thank God there is no home or away fixtures in Brazil and any tactical bankruptcy like we all witness in Egypt will send us packing and it's not only AA who will be blamed because you are all in it together as the conservatives says here in Britain. We have the players to deliver but nativity ,favouritism ,nepotism,bribery on the part of you stupid half baked fake class one technical bench will send us back early . How can we be told that AA has gone to South Africa to monitor the players not knowing he went to see two bench warmers and because of black clash ,we get told he went on holiday.Which means the tax payer pays for AA to holiday in South Africa and claim his cheque from the bench warmers.Double win. The only hope l have in Brazil is in the players not a bit in AA and his corrupt fake technical entourage including Oti Akenteng.
access says:April 24, 2014 08:31 amStop blaming Asamoah Gyan for penalty miss.People should blame John Paintsil for the free kick that took Ghana lead away and the coach....Penalty is 50/50...
Fiifi, Berlin says:April 24, 2014 12:52 pmDr. A.A. probably knows what he can and what he lacks and actually wants to undertake concrete measures to "patch" his "loopholes"! Unfortunately people like ...come out to pressure him to discard his plans! These are the same people who would "blast" him with all sorts of stories and accusation should things go "bad" in Brazil! Such comments from the "technical Director" is uncalled for!Please leave the coach to do his work in peace!!! What he needs is support and encouragement to do his work as he pleases and feels would move him forwards! The journalists should also stop putting statements into the coach's mouth. Such statements like "from very reliable sources", "yours truely" etc should cease with immediate effect! "They say", "they say" and the unnecessary rumours and propoganda should stop! The man Dr. James Akwesi Appiah is carrying a very heavy, heavy load , people should stop putting more load his head, otherwise he would break down before even the first whistle is blown in Berlin! Give him a break for him to succeed big time!!!
Benny says:April 24, 2014 01:04 pmNoni,this is GHANA SOCCER NETWORK (GSN) and not GANGSTER SOCIETY OF NIGERIA(GSN), which is run by your prostitute mother and your armed robbery father who started boko haram. You cannot hack into anybody's computer to steal any password.**** off because nobody wants you here.A fifty year old who behaves like a toddler.The last time l checked,the police were looking to arrest your father for raping his grandchild and you for raping your mother.Bastard......
Benny says:April 24, 2014 02:04 pm''AA will break down before the first whistle is blown in BERLIN'' When was the World Cup venue changed from Brazil to Berlin..........lol This got to be breaking news............
delo says:April 24, 2014 02:42 pmoti shuld stop de talke nd give proper technical direction to aa on even de type of players we take to brazil al dis benchwarmers he is planin to take to brazil wil bring us home after de firstround
Ghanaman says:April 24, 2014 03:54 pmYou useless son of a filthy WHORE!! You ignorant stupid snake!! Do you believe the trash you wrote?
Benny says:April 24, 2014 04:46 pmGhanaman,l don't do believe,l am a realises.You only find solace on GSN.You miserable git.Get a life.Are you not ashamed to rape your own mother and for your father what was going through his head when he raped his own grand daughter. You are lucky to be living in a bush in Ghana .IF you were here in the UK ,you would spend your miserable life in jail.Look l am not responsible for your sour life.You shared the same room with your parents ,sleeping among eight sisters ,4 here and 4 there whilst you sleep in the middle like MR Shabah.Hearing your father give it to your mum whilst your father farts and scream like a cow given birth.You idiot ,you will think twice,the next time you insult me or anybody on this forum.l expose all your secret including your yanking.Commu tuess mama pussy.Seppe lottoo papa moure.

This is such a lovely house set in a peaceful setting. We honestly did not want to leave! A beautiful spacious house that is very well equipped. The pool area is great (hours of fun had!) with a covered eating area as well for shade with fab BBQ! Outside the lanai pool area is a wooden deck to stretch out in the sun or have an evening drink watching the beautiful sunsets, then a few steps down from there is a private floating dock on the very quiet canal that is perfect for fishing. (hubby caught lots of different types!) Not far down the road a few mins drive is a fabulous private beach, again perfect to see the amazing sunsets but lovely for a beach day or picnic under a cabana. The sand is like icing sugar and a safe shallow shore, the sea was very warm. If you want to just unwind and relax you could just stay at the house/beach and not have to explore at all. The house is not far from everything you could need or want, restaurants, shops and places to visit such as Tarpon Springs...you must go there and take the sponge diving boat trip, see the aquarium and eat dock side at Dimitri's. Busch Gardens is about 50 mins away and well worth a day there with animals to see as well as fab coasters and rides (Sheikra and Cheetah Hunt!!!!) We found a casual locals restaurant up the coast a few miles waterside tucked behind a boat yard/marina called Miss Vicky's that was beach side (sunset again!) that had a friendly tropical feel and the fresh caught shrimp were amazing, great wild life to see on the way too at the marine reserve. We also went down South to St Pete's which is a lovely town to explore and eat. As is the area North bound with more nature reserves and places to visit. We can not wait to go back to stay in this lovely house and also explore the area some more. We were not lucky enough to see the dolphins from the house or the beach this time but were told they are there often! There is a huge DVD collection too, something for everyone for the evenings! (Internet connection good.) Christine the British owner is fabulously helpful and friendly right from the start all the way through, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful holiday home. We will treasure the memories for ever.
Kind regards Ruth, Darren and family
This is a very nice house where everythibg works as it should! The house owners answer quickly and informativly at mail or phone before/under/after your stay. In the house you will find all the information you need. We were a family of 4 (kids 12 and 15) and we all hope to back some day!
Christine and Eddie,
Your home was exactly as you have described it. We were six Adults looking for a relaxing place to stay while vacationing.
We all enjoyed staying at your home. It was clean and spacious. The bed rooms were spacious and comfortable! As well as the family room and kitchen, We are first time renters and we were so happy and fell in love with your home. Loved the house with the enclosed pool area and patio area. We spent a lot of time there having our breakfasts and our dinners and just relaxing. We will definitely do this again in the future. You and Eddie have been so great with answering our questions and even calling us when we were reserving your home. Unfortunately we didn't get to see a Dolphin by your dock but my cousin did see a Dolphin in another part of the canal on one of our drives, so we know they are there, this just means we will have to come back again and spend more time there.... :) We did get a chance to visit the private beach and enjoyed our time spent there. Thank you again for being so gracious with renting your home out to us.
Sincerely will be back again!!!
For future renters this is the place to be, I know you will enjoy your time there as much as we did....... All the best.....
Rose & John, Lucy & Serge, Isabel & Bruce
What a stunning villa!
Perfect location, quite and easy access to other areas, clearwater just a short drive south, Dunedin is a pretty little harbour town to be visited, lots of great gift shops too.
The villa was clean and well presented, the kitchen was fab, has everything you need to cook a full meal if you wanted. Massive fridge and freezer. 2 dining areas 1 in the kitchen and the dining area to the side of the lounge. more room than we needed which made our stay or the more relaxing.
We used the pool, the water was a little cold in March but we braved it :) we sat on the decking and watched the numerous little lizards trying to hide from us. We also saw the dolphins too :D only once but we spent most days sightseeing, had a couple of days just chilling on the decking and by the pool.
Took a private airboat tour on the Everglades, a must if you like to see lots of wildlife close up!
A great base for a fab holiday, no matter whether you want to spend your time sightseeing or just read a book by the pool, it's perfect for anyone holiday needs.
Great for kids too, the pool is enclosed with a mesh to keep any unwanted 'things' out
Would definitely return in the future
Thank you Chris and Eddie your villa is just fab!
This house fit us great, with my wife and I, plus 2 teens and 2 tweens. We had just the right amount of room, and the great room was a great place to meet to watch a movie on the big, flat screen. The pool was big, but unfortunately not very warm due to the weather. Deck and dock were nice, and I could see how fishing would be good. It would have been nice if the house had some sand toys available. We ended up buying some in a local store, and leaving them. The private beach was small, and is a bit of a hike if you are taking sand toys, or a cooler. It was an easy car drive, and the guards were always nice. The younger kids took advantage of it a few times. Found a few good restaurants for the nights were were around the house, and not cooking. Expect 10-15 minute drive for them.
I'd recommend this house if all you want to do is sit on the beach, fish, boat, or if you don't like being in touristy areas. New Port Richey is definitely not touristy. Tampa, Clearwater, St Petersburg were always at least a 30 minute drive due to distance and/or traffic. Rte 19 is very heavily traveled, and Rte 589 is a tollway ($2.75 to Tampa, $2.50 back). Howard Beach is okay, but not great. We ended up in Tampa (twice), Clearwater, and St Petersburg due to weather not being cooperative, and nothing going on around New Port Richey on New Year's Eve. Thus we did much driving. The New Year's Eve fireworks in Clearwater were okay, as was the Alamo Bowl parade. The manatee viewing site near Apollo Beach was great, and so was the Salvador Dali museum. Also recommend Rusty Bellies restaurant if you like someone to cook your seafood for you, and Trinity Seafood on Little Rd if you like fresh seafood that you cook yourself.
we had a fab holiday a this villa the swimmg pool is very warm and well kept.Rooms are spacious well kept and clean. All appliances are well maintaned and has everything you need. There are lots of dvds to keep the kids amussed. I sayed there with my three kids one 14 one 12 and a 5 year old we all had a lovely time and were in a good central location to be able to visit local atractions.my little boy loved the mini golf just up the road and we enjoyed visting the local beach. the dock at the back of the house was fantastic for the kids to fish off and to watch wildlife. We will be going back ASAP
Located a short drive from Clearwater, close to the Greek fishing town of Tarpon Springs. Dunedun Scottish community is also near by to the rental property based in Gulf Harbours.
Honeymoon Island is approx 20 mins away.
Homasasa springs nature reserve is a short drive to the north.

Atmospheric deposition as a source of stormwater pollution in Gold Coast, Australia
Gunawardena, Janaka, Egodawatta, Prasanna, Ayoko, Godwin A., & Goonetilleke, Ashantha (2011) Atmospheric deposition as a source of stormwater pollution in Gold Coast, Australia. In Proceedings of the 34th IAHR World Congress, 33rd Hydrology and Water Resources Symposium and 10th Conference on Hydraulics in Water Engineering, Engineers Australia, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Brisbane, Qld, pp. 1849-1856.
Atmospheric deposition is one of the most important pollutant pathways for urban stormwater pollution. Atmospheric deposition can be in the form of dry and wet depositions which have distinct characteristics in terms of pollutant types, pollutant sources and influential parameters. This paper discusses the outcomes of a comprehensive study undertaken to identify the characteristics of wet and dry deposition of pollutants.
Sample collection was undertaken at eight study sites with distinct characteristics. Four sites were close to road sites with varying traffic characteristics, whilst the other four sites had different land use characteristics. Dry deposition samples were collected for different antecedent dry days and wet deposition samples were collected immediately after rainfall events. The dry deposition was found to increase with the antecedent dry days and consisted of relatively coarser particles (greater than 1 µm) when compared to wet deposition. The wet deposition showed a strong affinity to rainfall depth, but was not related to the antecedent dry period. It was also found that smaller size particles (less than 1 µm) travel much longer distances from the source and deposit mainly with the wet deposition

Rosie Schaap's Pick Three With A Twist
This week's Pick Three comes with a twist! Of lemon, lime, a splash of soda. That's because this Pick Three comes with a beverage pairing courtesy of Rosie Schaap, "Drink" columnist for the New York Times Magazine and author of the memoir Drinking With Men.
"I have strong seasonal tendencies with both music and drink." Schaap says. "For me, autumn is essentially about two things: Spooky old folk songs, and brown liquor." Below are three of her favorite singers, with drinks to match.
On Jean Ritchie's "Lord Randall":
Jean Ritchie hails from the Bluegrass State, so Kentucky bourbon must be drunk with this. Poor Lord Randall probably could've used a few fingers of it himself. Pick something strong, like Wild Turkey's Rare Breed, at 108.6 proof, and drink it neat.
On "The Poor Murdered Woman" from Shirley Collins:
I always think there's something so quintessentially English about Shirley Collins, and something so straightforward about her singing. All I want with this is a pint of good English ale, like Wells Bombardier—which was introduced to me by John Stoate, another great English character, and the founder of one of my favorite pubs, the Man of Kent in Hoosick Falls, New York.
On "Reynardine" from Fairport Convention:
Is he a fox? A were-fox? An Irish outlaw? An ornery mountain man? A little bit of each? We'll never know, and we'll also never know the fate of the maiden with whom he crosses paths. In any case, this obviously calls for absinthe. Use it in a variation on the Sazerac, substituting a smoky Scotch whisky for rye.
Reynardine Sazerac:
• 1 sugar cube
• 2 1/2 ounces blended Scotch whisky (I use Dewar's white label)
• 2 dashes Angostura bitters
• absinthe
In an old-fashioned glass, muddle a sugar cube with the bitters and a couple drops of water. Add ice and whiskey and stir well. Strain into another old-fashioned glass that has been chilled and whose interior has been coated with a few drops of absinthe, swirled about.

|kale, garlic oil, red pepper, havarti, sun dried tomato, fig balsamic
So fitting that this post comes after another about pizza....we really do eat pizza that much! The pizza addiction started years ago with Brent's attempt at recreating Pizza Hut dough. (He has some love affair with the hut!) So, for years we piled the toppings high on his thick yet tasty dough. Toppings such as sundried tomatoes, garlic, spinach, mushrooms, pesto, zucchini, olives, fresh herbs, feta and the list goes on. No pepperoni and cheese here!
We continued this way until recently when one evening we needed a quicker, easier dough recipe. To the internet! In a few short minutes, Brent had the dough set to rise (oh, the joys of a food processor!) and no sooner were the pizzas ready to eat. Brent had suddely discovered one of the easiest and most delicious thin crust recipes out there! With a few modifications, this recipe has quickly become our fav. Now, weekly we throw whatever we have on two pizzas. Last night it was balsamic roasted asparagus, red pepper, onion, garlic, and eggplant with goat cheese on one, and mushrooms, four cheeses, and garlic oil on the other. Amazing!
Try it out for yourself. Trust me, nothing is better than getting your pizza exactly how you like it (unless of course you love all that generic cardboard junk!)

been awhile, not sure if anybody is still reading or not but i like to see myself write =]
finally found time to wrench abit and figured out that the coil was bad. i have a SBC HEI dist. in it so i replaced the coil with a 67 vette coil, also noticed a giant hole in the cover which would explain why it stopped running when i drove it in the rain, ordered the cover and should get it monday.
ordered a new ignition lock/cylinder and picking that up whenever both are in. ignition is worn out and i don't like the fact it can be started without a key.
somebody mailed me a license plate bracket so i could finally mount it and remove the duct taped on plate from the window
but the good news is that it's finally running, getting the carb rebuilt soon and then im going to start driving it around and saving $$ for different upgrades.
also the axles, HD steering, and bodylift will be put on a soon as my friend has his lift installed at his shop.

Will face palmolein import case legally: Chandy
Oommen Chandy said it was after investigation under the LDF rule that he was made a witness in the case.
Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy has said that he will face legally and politically the Thiruvananthapuram Vigilance Special Court's directive to re-investigate his role in the palmolein import case.
Speaking to mediapersons after holding discussions with his cabinet colleagues and KPCC president Ramesh Chennithala at the Chief Minister's conference hall at the North block of the secretariat, he said, he would face the investigation legally and morally.
"The Vigilance case is 20 years old. It was after investigation under the LDF rule that I was made a witness in the case. Nothing incriminating was found. I had referred all these issues to the party high command before the elections," he said.
"If it is another probe, let there be one," he quipped. Asked whether he would relinquish the Vigilance portfolio, Ramesh intervened and said the party would take a political decision on the issue.
Later, addressing reporters along with other UDF leaders KM Mani and PK Kunhalikutty, Ramesh Chennithala said that it was during the LDF government's tenure that the re-investigation was ordered in the case. And the Vigilance had submitted the report on May 11 this year. The Vigilance report had clearly said that the Finance ministry had no role in the palmolein purchase or imports. The probe had given a clean chit to Oommen Chandy, he said.
Speaking on the issue, Kunhalikutty said there was no situation warranting the Chief Minister's resignation. He said they would discuss the issue with other leaders and study it in detail. The court order to conduct the reinvestigation was technical. "It is not an issue at all. It was during the tenure of the LDF Government that the reinvestigation was ordered. And there was no evidence against Chandy," Kunhalikutty said.
KM Mani also said that it was the LDF Government which ordered the reinvestigation. "Disapproving the Vigilance report and issuing a directive for a fresh probe to find out the role of Oommen Chandy as Finance Minister in the Karunakaran ministry during 1991-96, is not a just decision," Mani said.
If there had been any evidence against Chandy there would have been a specific point in the directive for a fresh probe, he observed.
"The court can accept the report or go ahead with the probe. We are not cowards to resign and run away from responsibility," said a perturbed Mani, drumming up support for Chandy.

The wind wakes me. It sounds like a freight train outside the window above my head. I roll over, reaching for the cell phone on my nightstand. 5:38 a.m. I check to be sure my alarm is set and fall back asleep.
When the alarm goes off 45 minutes later, the wind is still roaring. I check my cell. No text messages, so I get up and go out to get the paper. Despite the wind, it's pretty warm for January.
I check my phone again. Still no messages, so I get ready to go.
"You're running?" Dan says incredulously.
"Nobody else canceled, and I'm not going to be the one to call off," I say.
I pull into the gym at 7:02 a.m., the only car in the lot. While I wait, gusts rock my car.
We run into the wind the first half mile, but once we get below the gym, the wind disappears. Or maybe it doesn't. Maybe it's just lost, forgotten, as we run side-by-side, groaning our way up hills, talking our way through miles that rush by faster than the wind.

Royal Prince Model 501
|[Down to Last]
|Post# 141873   7/3/2011 at 15:19 (2,152 days old) by dwhdarren97 (If you wish to know, email me please.)
I am new to the forums, and am just 14 years old. My parents and most my family strongly object to my hobby. However, I still have 3 vacuums that were quite difficult to obtain due to my mother saying "somebody elses filth removing machines will not be brought into this house!" Despite that issue, I have just recently got a Royal Model 501 hand vacuum from Goodwill for $7.99. Was this a good deal? I think it is, it has no attachments. But it is the really old red and grey bag model. I was a little mad to see that the model and serial number sticker has been torn off the bottom of the vacuum! I will post pictures as soon as someone replies, and hopefully they will be able to help me decipher the year it was manufactured, or a narrowed range of.possibilities. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance :) .

It sounds to me like a 1960s or 70s variant. I have a lot of different Royal hand vacs in my collection. The full list is in my profile. They were made from 1937 to the late 1990s and are some of the best hand vacs ever made.
Plastic Dirt Devil attachments will work if you want to use it that way. Paper bags are also available, along with replacement brush rolls and belts.

Thanks, I used to have attachments for the dd, not sure what happened to them. I just put new belts on the dd and the royal. The royal belt split to pieces as soon as I barely moved the brush. The brushroll is in good shape on both, and the dd has a disposable bag on it currently. Will the prince disposable bags work on the older prince models such as mine?

The Royal Type H bags should fit all Prince models. They all used the same metal bag ring. Just watch out for hair and stuff causing clogs with the paper bag.

Thanks for the info, the studs that hold the motor in place are a real pain for clogs on these machines. You cannot beat the quality or power or noise level on any new plastivac though when compared to the 501. This is the picture with the Lux powerhead in the background. My 103. The plastivac that isn't a plastivac.

(Floor-a-Matic) . Oops . I guess I was a little unclear. The remnants of the sticker are there, 115 volts is all that's readable. Would it still be etched on the motor?

That's a nice looking Royal, I would love to get one! The Kirby hand vac looks cheaper than a plastic Dirt Devil.
I must say that for 14 you have excellent grammar!

Thanks. Most kids my age don't. But, I have self-diagnosed OCD. So, naturally everything has too be near perfect or I feel extreme anxiety. Anyway, the Royal was in near perfect condition when I got it! I do think it could use some polishing though. The front end of the machine can be seen in one of my pictures in my profile.

Not only the electric bill, but how much she paid for all those different colored towels… Crazy.
If we submit it to laser imaging do we find out that Peter was actually a rabbit? 😀
You're from Michigan, too? Howdy neighbor.
Jesus was created using towels that Laura Bell and her family may have used after taking showers.
So jesus might have been really "close" to her & her family.
Any plan to promote Dan Barkers upcoming visit promoting "The Good Atheist: Living a Purpose-Filled Life Without God"? (Can I say where?)
Huh. How 'bout that.
When I was little I decided to make a lint dress for my Kelly doll. I got in trouble for doing it, though :c I just thought I was being creative…
Good for you Laura! What do all of you loosers do?

Kenmore Refrigerator Door Sealer Repair
I have a kenmore frig. The freezer works, but the frig is not cool (60F). I think the problem is in the door. The door can not be fully closed. I guess normally there is some kind of magnetic contact between the plastic surrounding the door edge (I call it sealer) and the surface of the frig frame. There is no such attached feeling when I close the door.
Is there a way to fix it?
Look around it first to see why it's not closing.
Take a dollar bill and shut it in the door trying differant places, it should take a tug to get it out.
Magnets do not wear out so so if it's not sealing it could be as simple as the gasket needs to be cleaned out in the folds.
If you decide to replace the seal there lots of places on line to order them, just Google in your make and model and hundeds of sites will come up.
There a royal pain to install, most take two people. I lay the gasket in a tub full of hot water to get to relax and become more flexable before installing.
On the Whirlpool I recently did the gasket has a magnetic strip on all four sides. If yours is the same it's not hard but you do need some patience. Make sure the metal holding strip catches the lip of the gasket and just work your way around, you will need to stretch it a little as you go. A ratcheting screw driver with a 1/4" bit made it about a 20 minute job.

With just three days before the Dolphins Week 2 matchup with the Vikings, coach Tony Sparano met with the media today to discuss all things Fins. Of course one of the biggest challenges facing his team this week will be Brett Favre. Not only is the veteran QB capable of fitting passes into tight spaces, but he's not afraid to take chances. The coach used an old Bill Parcells term to describe what his DB's need to do in coverage this week: "plaster" the wide receivers. He said that when Favre gets rolling and moves out of the pocket, men in coverage often have a tendency to break for the quarterback. And when they do, they get beat. Something to look out for this weekend for sure. Other notes:
-While there has been a definite improvement in the defense's open-field tackling, the coach mentioned that it is, for obvious reasons, a pretty tough thing to work on in practice.
-Sparano said that while coaching the Dolphins, University of Phoenix Stadium has probably been the loudest place he's taken his team (Fins lost 31-10 there Week 2 of 2008). He certainly expects this Sunday's game to be loud, as well, and has piped in crowd noise during practice.
-Even with Tony McDaniel getting Jared Odrick's reps at defensive end this week, the coach still expects to use a rotation on his defensive line. He believes in having fresh bodies in the game and essentially said that if a player dresses for the game, he should expect to play.
-The coach was asked about the play of #2 tight end John Nalbone. Sparano said that Nalbone was in for about 14 offensive plays against the Bills, was asked to do some different things, and did. He also contributed on special teams. Seems the team will try to continue to develop him.
UPDATE: Here are some video highlights of the coach's talk today, to see him discuss Anthony Fasano as a run blocker, the way his team needs to run the ball against the Vikings, and if Brandon Marshall's debut was a success:

"Berkeley Calling" Vic Sadot ReBlogs Kevin Ryan on Chomsky
BERKELEY CALLING ReBlogs Kevin Ryan "Dig Within" Blog titled "NOAM CHOMSKY AND THE WILLFUL IGNORANCE OF 9/11"
BERKELEY CALLING celebrates the living tradition of Free Speech in Berkeley. Kevin Ryan uses his freedom of speech to tell the truth about 9/11 and other political betrayals of the American people and their Constitution. Kevin Ryan's blog "Dig Within" and his new book, "Another Nineteen: Investigating Legitimate 9/11 Suspects" are highly recommended! The links to his works are posted at this BERKELEY CALLING Blog post. Be sure to read the comments section too! We have chosen a Vic Sadot music video to embed below titled "BLOWBACK OR BLOODY TREASON" at Truth Troubadour YouTube Channel. The song was released on 9/11/11, the same day that this vicsadot.com website was launched. The song was on a 16 song CD titled "9/11 Truth & Justice Songs", which is available at CD Baby as one of three Vic Sadot CD releases there.
BLOWBACK OR BLOODY TREASON by Vic Sadot at Truth Troubadour Channel. This song was released on 9/11/11 on the 10th anniversary of the treasonous 9/11 false flag operation on a 16 song CD titled "9/11 Truth & Justice Songs", which remains available in Vic Sadot's CD Baby pages. It is Vic's third release made by Discmakers and posted at CD Baby.
Blowback or Bloody Treason was created after reading Crossing the Rubicon by Michael Ruppert, the former LA narcotics detective who blew the whistle on CIA drug running and later became a 9/11 whistle-blower. "We need a great detective's logic! Forensic facts & laws of physics! Not leaps of faith! Just steps to reason! Was it blowback or bloody treason?"
Watch New AE911Truth Documentary On Line! – 9/11: EXPLOSIVE EVIDENCE – EXPERTS SPEAK OUT
Original post at Truth Troubadour Blogspot Oct 28, 2012
New AE911Truth Documentary Now Free On-Line!
AE911Truth.org presents the verifiable forensic and scientific evidence and leaves the conspiracy questions to the American citizens to debate. At this time over 1,700 Architects & Engineers have decided to risk their lives, reputations and careers to present the facts that they discovered by their scientific investigation. It destroys the faith-in-authority based official "conspiracy" story about 19 Muslims being directed from a cave in Afghanistan by a known CIA asset in need of regular dialysis treatment for kidney disease, yet devastatingly defeating the most sophisticated intelligence and defense capabilities in the world for which no US official who "failed" was punished, demoted, prosecuted, or even reprimanded, but only promoted and rewarded in the aftermath of the tragedy. Indeed!
The NEW QUESTION about 9/11 becomes this: If military grade nanothermite has been proven to be in samples of the dust from the World Trade Center rubble as presented for scientific peer review in"The Open Chemical Physics Journal" in 2009, which is available on line, and as it thereby exposes the lies and the impossibility of 110 story steel frame buildings disintegrating due to fires, then who had the means, motive, and opportunity to place the nanothermate in the three buildings that imploded? Building #7 was not hit by a plane, and yet it went down in less than 7 seconds with Dan Rather calling it a "controlled demolition while showing a video on live TV showing Building #7 exploding, disintegrating, and symetrically collapsing at near free fall speed amid vast pryroplastic clouds of toxic dust. Owner Larry Silverstein later said on a national TV show that he conferred with the fire chief to "pull it"! Yet NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) claims all three buildings came down in total collapses due to fires, a first in the entire history of steel frame buildings. We were asked to suspend the laws of physics three times in one day and asked to accept the official conspiracy story based on faith in the authorities spinning the story. Muslim patsies are unlikely to have had such access to the World Trade Center.
Instead of 9/11 being a cause celebre for revenge and an endless "war on terror", along with the alleged necessity for us to give up the Bill of Rights and habeas corpus, 9/11 goes back to being a major murder crime scene in need of a truthful and trustworthy investigation. 9/11 returns to the original questions related to finding out who was involved and who knowingly helped to cover it up. That would be a paradigm shift in people's perspective, and it would re-frame that historical moment and take away it's use as the justification for the terrible wars and trashing of rights that GW Bush and Obama have used it for, now wouldn't it?
Instead of sending the troops and drones overseas to expand the corporate empire, and instead of illegal surveillance of every citizen in the "Homeland", we would have to change the response back to standard operating crime procedures by sending in our best detectives to review the evidence, trace the advance financing and later profiteering, subpoena order powerful and connected people to testify under oath or to negotiate for immunity in exchange for providing evidence, and determine who gave the stand down orders or who was guilty of the "failures" that only went rewarded, and give this process a full public airing of what the detectives come up with that would be worthy of a great democratic republic. But for the moment, forget about conspiracy theories! Let's get back to the task of determining fact from fiction by using logic and the scientific method. Watch this 59 minute movie because it is vitally important to our future well-being that we not get fooled again and that we prevent the next false flag psy op. Open up the locked gates, and let Truth & Justice come rolling in!

Questions about the Death & Dumping at Sea of Osama bin Laden
Osama bin Laden: Dead or Alive? If he is dead, when did he die?
Was he really the "mastermind of 9/11", or not?
How can we know the truth?
One thing we know is that Osama bin Laden was a CIA asset used to recruit Muslim fundamentalists to fight the Russians in Afghanistan. What else do we know for sure? Why would Obama claim to have ordered a kill on Osama, and then dispose of his body at sea? Does that sound like the American way of justice? Dr. David Ray Griffin published "Osama bin Laden Dead or Alive" in 2009. It's a good read today! Evidence of fraud is abundant. The questions he raises need to be answered. http://noliesradio.org/archives/3230
The Corporate media spin machine has cranked out an avalanche of "reports" on the "daring" execution of a supposedly-alive Osama bin Laden hiding in a "million dollar mansion" in Pakistan. The story of the amazing commando raid may end up being another high-tech production from the same folks who brought us the lies about Pat Tillman, Jessica Lynch, & WMD in Iraq. In the case of Pat Tillman, the "official glory story" was that he got killed in a shoot out with the Taliban. Later, as the Tillman family bravely pressed on and on for the truth, the story was amended to be "friendly fire". Then the military coroner report revealed that the evidence showed that Pat Tillman was shot "by 3 bullets to the forehead at 10 yards range". Ignored AP story:
In the case of Jessica Lynch, she refused to go along with the "official glory story". She testified to Congress that she was wounded by an explosion, not in a firefight. Iraqi hospital authorities informed the US military that she was alive and well and under their care. But the Pentagon sent a commando unit in there to "rescue the heroic soldier". Was the truth less important than having a recruitment poster boy and girl to use to lie to young people about corporate resource & domination wars?
In the aftermath of 9/11, we were all in "shock & awe" as the media reported "explosions" at the WTC (World Trade Center) and the Pentagon. This was rapidly revised to the "official story" that the jet fuel from the planes that hit the two tallest towers of the WTC complex "melted the steel" and caused their collapse. It's against the laws of physics! Both Dan Rather and Peter Jennings mused aloud as it was happening that the only way that steel frame buildings could be brought down by fire would be to "get at the inner structures" as in a "demolition". What's worse, the WTC buildings did not just collapse. They disintegrated to dust in less than 15 seconds! Building 7, which was not hit by a plane, did so in 10 seconds at around 5:30 that evening. In fact, on Sept 10, 2001 Dan Rather reported on CBS that Osama bin Laden was in a Pakistani military hospital getting dialysis treatments for kidney failure. Read about that here:
If you are asking yourself how "Muslim terrorists" could get access to the 3 WTC buildings to destroy them by demolition, that is a legitimate question. It also leads to the possibility that others would more likely have such access. Kevin Ryan, who worked for the company, Underwriters Laboratories Inc, that certified the steel in the WTC, lost his job when he raised questions about the government's NIST report. He worked with a team of scientists associated with "Scholars for 9/11 Truth" to examine dust from the WTC. They published a scientific "peer review" paper that was completely ignored by the corporate media because it showed photos of microscopic particles that indicate that "nano thermate" was used in the demolition.
Read Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth at www.ae911truth.org Read about the peer review paper here:
Thermite is used in industrial demolitions. Adding sulfur makes it Thermate, which can melt steel. But only the US and some allied militaries would have access to "nano thermate". Kevin Ryan recently wrote an article on the question of access to the WTC. Interview with Kevin Ryan: "Demolition Access to the World Trade Center" on Guns & Butter on KPFA on 1-10-11.
Bush and Cheney resisted having a Commission set up to investigate the events of 9/11 for almost two years. Only when victim family members, particularly a group known as "The Jersey Girls", pressed on for the truth, did they create a commission. Bush named National Security Director Condoleezza Rice's assistant, Philip Zelikow, to be Executive Director. A cover-up was predictable. Watch the movie about "The Jersey Girls", "9/11: Press for Truth", & discuss it with friends & family:
David Ray Griffin spent most of his life as a professor of theology. But once he began to investigate 9/11 he produced many good books on the subject and he has spoken all over the world about it. The "official story" was very useful propaganda in support of wars and repressive laws, which violate the Constitution. They are bad for Americans and even worse for the corporate empire's victims. This "Guns & Butter" interview with Dr. David Ray Griffin by Bonnie Faulkner on KPFA about his book "Osama Bin Laden Dead of Alive" was originally broadcast in 2009. It was especially timely to re-broadcast this on May 2, 2011, a day after President Obama made a speech stating that he ordered a special ops unit into Pakistan to execute Osama bin Laden and to dump the body into the ocean. The President claimed he gave the order to dump the body of Osama bin Laden into the ocean out of respect for Muslim practice. Is such an act not closer to Mafia practice than Muslim practice? It certainly makes it impossible to verify that bin Laden was the one killed and that that was his body that they dumped at sea! DNA could have been acquired long ago during one of bin Laden's hospital visits for kidney failure. How can we know the truth? By raising questions, demanding answers!

Last week's financial market roller coaster is so far not affecting fall TV upfront buys, which are due to convert to orders in late August/early September. MediaPost reports that media agency leaders aren't seeing any signs of adjustments to the TV upfront buys and expect Q4 to remain strong despite economic uncertainty. Steve Lanzano, president/CEO of the TV station association TVB says, "Back-to-school consumer spending should provide a good barometer for retail spending in the upcoming holiday season . . . But at this time it is not expected that planned advertising spending will be affected."
This attention to the TV market reflects its continued advertising power position. Despite frequent proclamations of TV's demise, the fall 2011 TV upfronts showed that it remains the go-to media for many advertisers. What is new, though, are signs that nascent TV and digital convergence is now being led by the ad sellers themselves. TV networks like Fox and The CW are following their consumers to multiscreen viewing by offering integrated video ad deals that span on-air and online. What does this mean for marketers? To stay connected with their consumers, marketers must get off of the couch and out of the living room to reach consumers through and beyond linear TV programming. Check out my report "The 2011 TV Advertising Upfronts Preview Convergence Of TV And Digital" to learn more about how these trends will affect brand marketers.
Posted by David Cooperstein on August 3, 2011
Our Researcher Mike Glantz has been tracking the changes in TV media buying for us. Here are some thoughts from him on a new announcement from Nielsen and Kantar:
Although TV controls the lion's share of the budget for most marketers, it has rarely been the most innovative or accountable medium. However, as TV becomes more fragmented and has to compete with digital, mobile, and over-the-top (OTT) video for viewers' attention, marketers will need more granular data sets that allow them to track viewers across multiple platforms. In our Q4 2010 report "TV's Currency Conversion" we made the call that set-top-box (STB) data will emerge as a parallel data currency with Nielsen for TV marketers. STB data allows marketers to accurately measure audiences across the tiniest cable networks, measure second-by-second commercial data, and compare audiences across TV and digital. We argued that STB data adoption would start with local marketers, since local marketers:
· Are dissatisfied with Nielsen's antiquated local methodology that does not provide granular insights (Sunflower Nixes Nielsen, Happy With Rentrak).
· Do not need to wait for national standardization for STB data to make in-market decisions.

CME in the next 40 years...
"The funds are not being released until these companies come up with an appropriate way of providing the grants. They have to have a little time to work out that process," said Rich Tischler, PhD, a former secretary of the ACCME who now runs Viator Medical Communications.
Even with its revamped structure, pharma-supported CME will continue to draw debate. Money for medical education still comes from marketing. Yet, "there will be an increasing reluctance on the part of marketing managers to provide money with no strings attached other than a specific therapeutic area through the CME grants department," predicted Lewis Miller, principal at consulting firm WentzMiller & Associates.
Miller said he sees more funding coming directly from corporate rather than marketing, and more grant dollars flowing into medical-society-run consortia that allocate funds to hospitals, schools or local medical societies. An early sign: Wyeth is sponsoring a pilot with the Medical Association of Georgia that lets states distribute CME monies.
As for providers, since their primary contact is now the director of CME, those that have survived off of good relationships with sales reps may be forced to exit accredited CME, sticking to promotional med ed, or close up shop completely, Miller said.
Many grantors are funding programs with outcomes measurement ability as a way to justify their investment. The ACCME's recently revamped accreditation model, which links accreditation to activities designed to demonstrate improvement, should spur grantors to direct money to providers who have full accreditation. In turn the new criteria should act as a catalyst for providers to achieve the highest level of accreditation they can.
Another trend is the effort to link maintenance of certification for physicians, which various boards of medicine are implementing, to a multi-stage process that includes performance improvement. "I look at it as a value add for the doc," said Mark Schaffer, VP for CME compliance, Thomson Healthcare. "That too is going to help move CME forward in a very good fashion."

Will Steven Speilberg helm Gods and Kings?
There are reports that Steven Speilberg is likely to seal the deal with Warner Brothers. It is simply because the legendary director is a master in handling this kind of subjects. Adding to that his track record of making films on Jewish heritage is also good. Moreover, being a mega-budget film, the director is also considered as the first choice for directing the project, as his films have always guaranteed the returns.
Reports claim that Steven Spielberg recently read the script written by Michael Green and Stuart Hazeldine. However, the movie is not an upgraded version of 1956s movie The Ten Commandments. The planned project is inspired by the 'Book of Exodus' and some of the tales from the 'Old Testament'. It is the story of Moses from his birth till death.
Meanwhile, Steven Spielberg's The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn has been declared as the highest opening animated film in India. The film has collected nearly Rs 7.35 crore at the Box Office in its first weekend.
