Man Of Steel?Mature
I am busy stroking the tail of a glamorous peacock, admiring the lavish colours of the bird, as it stands stiffly. These peacocks are well trained and I was given so much when the well-wishers came to our steel coated castle. Built on a jutting rock surrounded by a large moat, I can say we are pretty secure.
However right now, me, mother and my annoying Sister Stelly are cramped into a comfy carriage as we travel towards the capital, I smile dreamily at myself as I inspect my appearance in a handheld mirror. Whitish skin, the golden painted steel implanted into my eyes (being a controller of steel, I can change my appearance without any pain or side effects, as long as it involves Steel of course). As I gaze at my gleaming golden eyes I flick at my long silver hair.
Gold and silver, I am a winner. I will rule Tiose and ensure a dignified reign.
My brattish younger sister Stelly (who is acting all melodramatic by pretending to be squashed by a peacock) sees me flicking my hair and inspecting my endless jewellery and fine robes and grunts "Brother, you know most men don't care about appearances" she finally utters.
"I am not most men dear sister, I am the future king of Tiose" I say simply.
"Yeah, in your dreams" she says spitefully.
"STELLY!" My mother roars who is next to me, she also knows how to present herself on such an occasion. With her fine golden wig and jewellery, coated in make up which she tried to (an unsuccessful try) to get onto my plain looking 12 year old sister. With her boring black eyes and dull brown hairs. Draped in rags of common brown.
My sister's eyes narrow in anger, she is just jealous of me that's all. Yet as her bushy eyebrows furrow (seriously she should have had them plucked at her age, it's like looking at two hairy slugs that disgust my stomach) she finally mutters "But Mum..." she protests.
"I won't hear it Stelly, your brother is presenting himself like a King. Whereas you bring shame on our family in your rags!" she screams as she pulls out her favourite fan and begins to fan herself. "Yeah, but there's a large difference between looking like a king and actually being one" she argues.
"Why has this come up now sister" I ask in boredom, the raving girl is always nagging me or mother to act more regal or serious, mother is queen regnant and I am King of the Steel Kingdom after father died of an existing condition he obtained from the EndWar. Stelly was only one when he died, I was 10. I don't remember father much, (he wasn't around a lot) I remember he had black hair and smelt damp like Autumn leaves.
Back in the present my sister answers my question "Metamacha, I'm concerned for you at our castle it's all sunshine and rainbows but those other guys might tear you apart" she says her eyes as wide as saucepans I simply laugh at her. "Do not fear for me Sister, those brute's won't know what hit them" I say with my head in the air.
"What are you going to do brother? Smother them in jewellery?" she asks sarcastically as I shake my head, such a foolish girl. "In case you are forgetting sister I am a controller of Steel, I can withstand Fire's and Water's and don't even get my started on Earth..."
At this point our carriage draws to a stop, stopping my sentence, as my words die my sister speaks up "Well show me what you're going to do then brother?"
I smile and focus as it does a small fork that Stelly has in her rags shoots out of her clothes and flies towards me. I hold it and smirk at her "Quite impressive, don't you think?" I say beaming.
She buries her face in her hands. She must now realise how wrong she is.
"My powerful little prince!" My mother says observing the fork and then me reaching out to kiss my forehead which I accept "Yes, but It's king remember, not a lowly prince" I say scoffing. "Yes, of course my dear my mighty king!" She exclaims as she pulls me in for a mighty hug.
"I think I'm going to puke" Stelly says.
"Well If you're not happy sister you go can ride at the back of our procession where the butchers and peasants are located, you'll fit in nicely with the rags you are wearing" I state as I giggle and mother follows my lead. "I think I'll be covered in feathers before that happens" she moans before continuing "Can you least move one of these peacocks outside? I can't move in here..."
"We are not moving them!" I bellow, doesn't she understand "These 5 peacocks are the only 5 I have!" I explain to my slow witted sister. "Only 5" she responds. "Yeah, other than them the only thing I like are the lemon cakes and the..." I begin.
The door to the carriage opens, our most royal knight Ser Stelard Of Steel stands there in his shining armour, a fresh young knight like me at 22 years of age "It seems we have a spot of bother M'lady" he says timidly to my mother, she looks outside at the murky road to the kingdom (eww, mud in general is everywhere) she doesn't get out of the carriage to observe the commotion instead she asks "What's wrong?"
The knight eyes the muddy floor "M'lady there has been an attack on the air kingdom's castle, only their son survives the massacre..."
"And how does this affect us?!" I interrupt as I help myself to more lemon cakes, gobbling them down from my ring filled fingers. Stelly glares at me for some reason as I eat without a care in the world. Ser Stelard turns to face me "We have just joined with the procession from the air kingdom and we worry for the young king's life. Considering he was attacked, we fear this may happen again"
"And!?" I growl rather impatiently, can this carriage just move again I have a kingdom awaiting my presence.
"The most respected Lord's along with myself agreed that he could travel with you. Hence this carriage would be more protected with the three of you children inside" he explains.
"Oh yes, let the poor boy inside" my mother says tenderly as Ser Stelard bows to her "Yes M'lady" he obeys as a procession of ruddy faced men walk forward, all with disgusting black beards and dirty skin. Ugh, I can imagine the fleas on them, "I hope his not a flea ridden 5 year old with endless flow of snot" I complain aloud, as my golden eyes search for the boy.
But for some reason a pale faced man thinks it's okay to step into our carriage. Our carriage! My carriage! "Excuse me Peasant!" I shout as I start to rise "This is reserved for the King of the Air Kingdom...!"
"M'lord this is the King Alidraine of the air kingdom"
I sit down and blink at the man in shock, for one I was expecting a child. And for two he lacks common hygiene completely and is dressed in rags like my sister and stinking of unimaginable smells. His eyes are a dull black as is his hair and beard.
"Well the King could at least clean himself" I snap not apologising for my outburst. Why should I? He comes into my carriage in this state and now he doesn't even have the decency to talk to me. Oh and look his brought mud into the carriage, what a inhuman pig.
The "King" Of the Air Kingdom sits himself next to Stelly. He has cracked blood on his fingers (seriously do they wash themselves with air and nothing else?) as he gazes out of the window. The carriage doors are closed and with a jolt the horses pull us forward towards the capital.
Alidraine moves his foot slightly, hitting one of my peacocks it caws and runs across the carriage "Watch it! You're disturbing my peacocks!" I shout angrily, at this he finally has the common decency to look at me and stutter "S-sorry" as he eyes fly to the window once again. "You better be" I conclude curtly reaching for another cake before this man can.
The man is so quiet it's annoying, the whole mood in the carriage changes after an hour or two of having him just not moving or saying anything. (He doesn't seem to blink which is weird) eventually mother turns to him "So Alidraine, it must have been very difficult to watch your family... be taken from you" she seems to whisper gently.
"It was" Alidraine responds his eyes still on the trees on the road.
"Well once your at the capital you can forget about all that and get yourself cleaned up" I state, gazing at the strange man (this is competition? This is cringe-worthy) "Metamacha cleaning him up doesn't make you his knight in shining armour" Stelly says eventually, Alidraine seems to smile at her, well peasants think alike.
"Well I know I'll be everybody's knight in shining armour when I'm king!" I huff.
"Yeah, but a knight in shining armour is a man who has never had his metal truly tested" Stelly mutters.
She is so wrong about everything.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Things have gotten so bad in Kansas City, Wednesday night's 6-1 setback to Cleveland actually felt like an improvement to the Royals.
And coming off Tuesday night's frightful collapse where they gave up 11 runs in the ninth inning, who could argue?
"It looked better because I've never seen anything like last night," Royals manager Buddy Bell said of his team's 12th straight loss. "Yeah, it looked better because it was more of a conventional loss."
Grady Sizemore hit a 3-1 pitch for his first major-league grand slam and added an RBI single to power the Indians past the hapless Royals, who matched the club-record 12-game skid of 1997.
"I just wanted to get a pitch where I could drive some runs in," said Sizemore, who set a personal best with five RBI. "I happened to get a fastball and put a good swing on it."
C. C. Sabathia (8-9) went six innings, giving up seven hits and one run, with six strikeouts and one walk. After losing 4-3 to New York in their last home game, the Indians are 5-0 on a six-game trip to Detroit and Kansas City.
Sabathia has won two straight after breaking out of a five-game losing streak of his own.
"Getting out of jams was something I wasn't doing on the losing streak," he said.
The Royals now have the longest losing streak in the majors this year. They have not won since July 27 when they rallied from five runs down to beat the White Sox 6-5 in 13 innings. In their last four games, they've allowed 46 runs.
Right-hander Zack Greinke (3-14) went 4 1/3 innings and remained the losingest pitcher in the majors. He gave up seven hits and four runs, with four walks and four strikeouts.
Sizemore, who was 3-for-3 with two singles and two walks, has reached base in seven straight plate appearances. He hit a 3-1 pitch in the second for his first major league grand slam.
The Indians loaded the bases on singles by Jeff Liefer and Aaron Boone and a one-out walk to No. 9 hitter Casey Blake. Sizemore's homer carried 408 feet over the fence in right-center.
Blake, extending his hitting streak to 11 games, doubled off Shawn Camp with one out in the sixth and made it 5-1 on Sizemore's RBI single.
The Royals got a run in the third on an RBI double by David DeJesus, who broke a 1-for-32 skid.
Sabathia's biggest pitch came in the fifth when the Royals had the bases loaded with two out and Emil Brown lined out to shortstop Jhonny Peralta. Earlier in the inning, Coco Crisp made a great diving catch to save a run.
"If we had won 11 in a row, I guarantee you that ball would have been to the left or right and gotten through," said Royals catcher John Buck.
Crisp had an RBI single in the eighth.
Bell was ejected in the ninth inning by home plate umpire Tim Tschida for arguing from the dugout.
"I think it was more of a misunderstanding than anything," Bell said. "I can't really get into it. There was no swearing or anything like that. Two long nights for both of us. Tschida's a good umpire and he did a good job tonight. That's all I can say."
- According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the Indians on Tuesday night were the third road team in major league history to score 11 runs in the ninth. The Chicago White Sox did it Aug. 19, 1970, against Boston and the Toronto Blue Jays did it July 20, 1984, against Seattle.
- The official scorer changed one of the Royals' three errors in the ninth Tuesday to a fielder's choice, giving Ronnie Belliard an RBI.
- Sizemore made an outstanding bellyflop catch of Buck's shallow pop fly in the second.
- The Indians have homered in 17 of their last 19 games.
- Sizemore's previous RBI high was three, also against Kansas City.

Hot to Handler
Chelsea Handler, who headlines a benefit gig tonight, may not be taking over the world, but she seems to be in charge of a nice-sized chunk of it these days. Chelsea Lately, her nightly E! talk show, which finds her dishing about celebrity foibles and other insanity with undisguised glee, has become a cult favorite, and her two essay collections, 2005s My Horizontal Life and this years Are You There, Vodka? Its Me, Chelsea, hit many a best-seller list thanks to the amusingly blunt way she over-shares about boozing, bed-hopping and intestinal distress the latter covered in a Horizontal chapter titled Skid Marks.
If I had to say, Is there something I wish I hadnt written about?, well, thats not something Im too excited about my boyfriends parents reading, she con-cedes. Thats why I tell them the books are out of print.
Even many of Handlers fans feel shes got a cruel streak. Still, she doesnt see herself as mean in part because she targets herself, too. If youre going to make fun of other people, you have to start with making fun of yourself, she maintains. And if youre okay with doing that, it kind of gives you carte blanche to make fun of anybody else.
Handler signs Vodka at the Tattered Cover LoDo, 1628 16th Street (www.tatteredcover.com, 303-436-1070) tonight at 5 p.m., then headlines a fundraiser for New Genesis, a transitional community for the homeless, at 8 p.m. at the Paramount Theatre, 1621 Glenarm Place. Tickets are $35 to $75, with special $500 VIP passes available. Learn more at 303-623-0106 or www.tickethorse.com and read an extended Q&A with Handler at blogs.westword.com/latestword.

Nice comfy room and a convenient place to stay near the airport. Only "complaint" is that housekeeping did not show up until after 6:00 PM twice during our stay.
Website is a little deceiving. Photos especially. Descriptions should be a little clearer as to 2 BR/2BA layouts. Kitchen items/towels need replenished. Be careful of ceiling fans. One in living room almost hit the guys in our group!! However the beach towels, chairs & umbrella were very helpful ...
We stayed over Mother's Day weekend prior to spending a week at Disney (Mom, 5 yr old and Dad). You can't beat the location. It's right across from the beach with a public access path directly across the road. You are walking distance from Siesta Key Village (about 1/2 mile), which has a bunch of ...
Great staff and amenities, pool bar, hot tub, steps to the sand.
This inn offers a charming bit of old Florida in a great setting for relaxation. The facilities are clean, the staff friendly. This is not a luxury stay, but we didn't go there for that.
We really liked the room, it was clean and comfortable.The staff was very friendly. Plenty of beach chairs to borrow, movies to borrow. Would definitely recommend this resort to friends and family.Will be coming back.
very nice hotel, friendly stuff, clean rooms, close to the beach, and pool with salty water, we spent 6 days there and we felt like we are home.
Had a great experience. Great staff, good food, definitely will be staying here for all future visits. Highly recommend to everyone visiting.
We stay here whenever we're passing thru the area!
Perfect, clean close to everything and Kathy at front desk was so amazing and friendly to my 7 year old son

Brownback is creating problems for Kansans
By Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
Really, Gov. Brownback?
Let's send 30 million bucks back to the feds and let them run the insurance exchange without state input. Let's spend just a few hundred thousand words to change the name of our state Medicare program.

Do you earn over $90,000 a year? Find out how the MLS will affect you and how you can avoid paying the surcharge.
The Medicare Levy Surcharge (MLS) is a tax imposed by the Federal Government on Australians earning above a specified amount who don't have adequate private hospital insurance. It's designed to encourage those who can afford take out private health cover to do so, to take some of the pressure off the public health system.
Will you be affected by the MLS?
The MLS is calculated at the rate of 1% to 1.5% of your income for Medicare Levy Surcharge purposes. If you earn less than $90,000 a year (for singles) or $180,000 a year (for couples and families), then the MLS will not affect you. However, you will still have to pay the 2% Medicare levy at tax time like everybody else.
It's only when you earn above the threshold that the MLS applies. The more you earn above the income threshold, the higher your MLS rate will be if you don't have private health cover. The MLS starts at 1% for those earning over $90,000 a year and then rises in tiers.
The income threshold for families increases by a further $1,500 for every dependent child after the first, which means families with more than one child are able to earn more before becoming affected by the MLS.
Compare your health insurance options for avoiding the MLS
Avoiding the MLS
To be exempt from paying the Medicare Levy Surcharge as a high income earner, you must take out private hospital cover that meets the following conditions:
- It must be held with a registered Australian health fund for hospital treatment provided in an Australian hospital or day hospital
- It must cover some or all of the fees and charges for a stay in hospital
- It must have a maximum payable excess per year no greater than $500 for singles or $1,000 for couples and families.
The requirement for a low front-end deductible (excess) is to prevent policyholders from maximising their excesses to reduce their premiums even further, because they have no intention of using the policy should they require hospital treatment.
Medicare levy thresholds
The Medicare Levy Surcharge covers three income tiers:
- Tier 1. Those earning from $90,000 to $105,000 per year for singles and $180,000 to $210,000 per year for families pay a MLS rate of 1%.
- Tier 2. Those earning from $105,000 to $140,000 per year for singles and $210,000 to $280,000 per year for families pay a MLS rate of 1.25%.
- Tier 3. Those earning over $140,000 per year for singles and $280,000 per year for families pay a MLS rate of 1.5%.
Still have questions about the MLS?
Q: How is the MLS calculated in my tax return?
- A: You are asked how many days in the year you held private hospital cover, and you are not liable to pay the MLS for those days. The MLS is calculated on the number of days that you didn't hold private hospital cover.
Q: If I have extras cover, is this enough to avoid paying the MLS?
- A: No, you must have hospital cover.
Q: I have insurance with an overseas fund. Does this exempt me from paying the MLS?
- A: No, you must have hospital cover with an Australian fund.
Q: If I suspend my hospital cover while I am travelling overseas, do I have to pay the MLS?
- A: Yes, you will have to pay the MLS for every day you don't have hospital cover, including the days while your policy is suspended.
Q: Which part of my income determines my Medicare Levy Surcharge?
- A: Your income for MLS purposes includes your taxable income, fringe benefits and super contributions minus any net investment losses.

A moment of reflection
Me and my girlfriend has been on a hike in the Chiltern hills, just outside London UK. We'd just walked up through this valley and turned to face away from the wind and to look at what we'd achieved. With the wind blowing, her hair followed the contours of the hills, so I tried to capture the moment.

Pico De Gallo -- a Mexican Fruit Salad
Recipe by Pam-I-Am
I spend 7 hours today serving this delicious salad at a fiesta fundraiser at my daughter's school here in California. Pico de Gallo is usually known as a type of salsa, but in this case, it is a popular fruit salad spiced with a red chili powder that is popular in Mexico. Sounds odd, but it's a delicious and addictive combination. You dice the fresh fruits into chunk size pieces and mix them together in any combination you like. Today, we combined watermelon, mango, pineapple, cucumber and jicama. I will list popular fruits and veggies that can go in it and you can customize your mix.
Top Review by brian48195
Everyone loved this. The spicy and salty taste of the pico de gallo really goes with the sweetness of the fruit. I let people sprinkle on how much they wanted. I also used the juice of limes instead of lemons to toss the fruit in. Thanks for sharing.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cantaloupe
- 1 apple
- 1 cucumber
- 1 jicama
- 1⁄2 honeydew
- 2 oranges
- 2 mangoes
- 1⁄2 pineapple, diced
- 4 cups watermelon
- 6 lemons
- pico de gallo powdered seasoning, to taste (a brand found in Latin foods section)
Directions See How It's Made
- Wash all fruit and/or vegetables (the ones you prefer), peel and dice into chunk size pieces.
- Place in a large bowl and mix with clean hands to distribute evenly.
- Cut the lemons into wedges and place in a serving dish.
- To serve, place 2 cups of the fruit mixture into an individual serving bowl, squeeze some lemon juice on top and then sprinkle with the "Pico de Gallo" seasoning.
- Enjoy!

Crystal Stilts
In his review of their 2008 self-titled album, Mike McGonigal of Pitchfork said of the Brooklyn band Crystal Stilts, "rock 'n' roll is theft."
He meant it as a compliment. The 'Stilts do not reinvent the garage pop wheel, but they do play it exceedingly well. Fitting comfortably in the lo-fi trend of recent years, the band buries their lyrics under mounds of reverb and distorted guitars. But all the obfuscation can't hide the pop core of their music. You can sing along, even if you can't quite make out the words.
Fans of garage pop, new wave and punk ought to be pleased by the bands showing at The Rhythm Room tonight.

- "Have you heard about the viscount? The wags in court all believe he's taken another lover and this time – she's married. Heads will roll, Stephan. Heads will roll. What business is that of mine? Why Stephan, you should know by now that I find my own business quite dreary. I much prefer other people's."
- —Cortesano anónimo
Los cortesanos rodean a la nobleza en la corte, lisonjeando a señores y damas con la esperanza de abrirse puertas. Hay desde aduladores ansiosos por agradar, hasta astutos confabuladores que ansían descubrir la clave de la riqueza y el prestigio. Los cortesanos son por lo general buenos oradores, ya que sus patrones nobles recurren a ellos a menudo para que les den su sabia opinión sobre diversas materias.
No importa cuán inteligente sea, ningún cortesano tiene su posición asegurada, ya que siempre hay quien que la codicia desesperadamente y que hará cualquier cosa por conseguirla.
Las cortesanas suelen recibir el nombre de damas de honor.
The Valicinian CircleEditar
This unmarked gated building in the most elite section of Altdorf is often mistaken for a private residence. It is, in fact, a very exclusive private club and gathering place for countless Courtiers. Named for an ancient warrior-poet, the club is dominated by classical themes almost designed to make the lower classes feel uncomfortable.
On the face of it, this is a harmless if extravagant organisation mostly concerned with sipping fine Bretonnian brandy and discussing the vagaries of the market. But many major decisions regarding business and government are decided in these marble halls and so it should be no surprise that villains of many varieties may be found here. A Lamhian vampiress (see NDM for details) and courtier using the name of Baroness Clarissa von Rosen is a prominent member who has slowly been gaining noble and courtier thralls among the membership. It is only a matter of time before the Circle is transformed into her personal coven.
Venezia FalconieriEditar
Venezia was born to the life of a courtier. The daughter of a family that boasted seven generations of courtesans, the courtly life was simply in her blood. Further Venezia is a classic beauty, dark-haired, emeraldeyed and fair-skinned. She is undoubtedly one of the most physically attractive women in the Old World today. Venezia leveraged her beauty and wits and arose within the society of the Tilean city-state of Verezzo like a force of nature.
She cut a magnificent swath through the nobility and upper society, soon being able to claim that she was perhaps the most influential woman in Verezzo save the Duchess. Perhaps, she rose a bit too spectacularly. Powerful enemies decided she needed to be dealt with and trumped up charges of witchcraft. Venezia barely managed to escape the pyres of the witch hunters and was forced to forever flee the city of her birth.
Thus did Venezia come to Altdorf. She resides there to this day, and her company and talents are much sought after. It is said that if one must negotiate the subtleties of the court of Karl Franz, there is no better guide. Alas, one must be careful when dealing with the Lady Falconieri. Any question reveals interest and that can be valuable information in its own right.
Venezia has dozens of clients always ready to pay handsomely for secrets. And what of the whispers of witchcraft? Could it be that the trumped charges that caused to her flee Verezzo were not so imaginary after all? What other explanation could there be for her sending her personal valet to purchase strange herbs from the more discrete markets of the city?

Waveform will be available soon!
All rights reserved. No usage without prior licensing. Please be fair. Thank you!
A slowly growing, expanding track that starts off with a suggestive pulse and slowly swells into a crescendo. Vast sonic textures combining orchestral string section with mysterious piano patterns and subtle electronic rhythmic pulses. This track blends a dark undertow with vast, open, bright vistas. It carries a sense of amazement, discovery, mystery and revelation, which should go well with film, story/drama, commercials, investigation / forensics and more.
Opener according to cinema in Hollywood style: Cinematic, long uplifting mood with flying female voice and cellos in combination with numerous massive hits and effects.Can the evil be stopped?
Danger at hand, brass clusters & melody mixed with strings and underground beats.
Uncompromising percussive barrage for the attack of the Terminators! The dance for survival begins …
This big and epic score is perfect suited for creating the typical Hollywood-feeling you know from movie theaters. Massive percussions, big orchestra and a full choir are the elements of this track. The part starting at 1:16 may be also used separately in order to create tension and drama. An alternate version without the choir is also included in this package!
hard drum&bass; track with an aggressive bassline that drives the track. On top are some soft and somewhat scary sounds that complement the aggressive mood.
Short, spacey trailer for many occasions
Futuristic downtempo/triphop with atmospheric sound effects and thoughtful piano melodies. A powerful string bass and a strong drum loop build the massive foundation
This track starts with subtle, mysterious bells before sweeping up to a massive, epic, grand orchestration. Suitable for fantasy, sci-fi, war & conflict, movie trailer, film or game intro scenes, getting ready for battle, etc. This track is recorded with a live philharmonic orchestra.
Driving and positive power pop song with piano arpeggios, orchestra elements, rock guitars and massive drums. Wellsuited for intense and emotional moments in movies, tv or commercials.
Dark and dramatic, monolithic and massive, orchestral soundtrack piece. Thumping percussion, choir, brass and string stabs. Also mixed in is an electronic techno beat for added impact. Very climactic, choral chants growing, increasing and reaching the climax at the end. Highly suitable for film trailer, movie trailer, action scene, intro sequence, dramatic footage, war or battle scenes, or even extreme sports.
A slow, pulsating, rather ominous and pensive rhythm sets the scene for a track that develops into an expansive, open aural vista. It has a sense of something important happening, something amazing approaching. It keeps growing into a glorious crescendo until finally all is revealed at the climax. A great track for when you want to build expectation and excitement towards the revealing moment.
Industrial Ambient, the synths spit driving grooves and the rest soft fire
Big landscapes, computer based simulations. This track creates a strong and heroic feeling of big size and wideness.
Majestic and monolithic movie soundtrack cue, high intensity with a live choir singing a glorifying theme, live orchestra and deep pounding war drums. Perhaps an awesome war machine, a superhero or the rise of a powerful mage. Great material for action movie trailer, sci-fi or fantasy, epic battle etc.
A slow but determined, foreboding, cold groove carries through this mysterious, dark track. The backbeat groove keeps pumping away unrelentingly - as strings, pads and synth arpeggios weave swirling patterns around it. Technology, mythology, science, mystery, past and future, high tech, sports, cutting edge, dark past. Similar to the sound of Massive Attack.
A percussive barrage! The team enters the playground and showcases their dance all about the victory!
Very dark and very intense orchestral Hip Hop Track with massive beats and huge orchestral hook.
Questionable future vision with massive strikes. Sad world history in time-lapse.
Twisted synth sequences get this pitbull of a track moving, then massive guitar riffs crash in with drums and bass to form an irresistible groove. Imagine a cross between White Zombie and Kraftwerk. Contains drums, synth, bass and lots of guitars!
A strong rhythm of deep, ethnic percussion provides the base for this staccato, ominous and glorifying track with a dark fantasy feel. It builds gradually throughout, to a huge and overpowering tidal wave of orchestral brass, strings, war chants and a massive percussion section. Proud and majestic, but with a threatening, malevolent feel, like an army of dark beasts on the eve of war. Maybe even Pirates...
Remarkable Power Breakbeat with a prominent synth bass, sensational beats and cool synth-effects; This track has a great recognition value and is highly versatile. Royalty free music for commercials, sports, racing video games and action.
A huge, pounding tribal drum rhythm is at the core of this powerful, hair raising and hell raising, all-out and full-on majestic action trailer track. Live orchestral instruments and live choir combined. It's massive, epic, glorifying, scary and overpowering -- suitable for any extremely dramatic action or battle footage, fantasy or sci-fi, combat sports and much more.
A spine-tingling, dramatic action cue with orchestral and techno elements in equal portions. Big strings and horns (live orchestra) are broken up by a synth riff and powerful rock drums. As if that wasn't enough, a choir enters towards the end with staccato chants. Hard hitting mayhem, great for film trailer, powerful action or battle scenes, combative sports, etc.

Sorrel (horse)
Sorrel is a term describing one of the most common equine coat colors in horses. While it is usually used to refer to a copper-red shade of chestnut horse, in some places it is used generically in place of the term "chestnut" to describe any reddish horse with a same-color or lighter mane and tail, ranging from reddish-gold to a deep burgundy or chocolate shade. The term probably comes from the color of the flower spike of the sorrel herb.
The term "chestnut" is the more common term used to describe horses of a reddish-brown color. Chestnut is more often used to describe this color in England and on the east coast of the USA, while the term "sorrel" is more common in the Western United States. Some horse enthusiasts insist that chestnut and sorrel are two distinct colorations, but there is no known genetic difference between the two and no clear consensus on what the distinction is. Some argue that "sorrel" should be used to describe only lighter shades, or shades with a very clear reddish tint, while "chestnut" denotes darker shades or shades with more brown in them. The American Quarter Horse Association, which uses both terms, describes a sorrel as a type of copper-red chestnut, but allows that chestnut is also a correct term.
In terms of equine coat color genetics there is no difference at all. Solid reddish-brown color is a base color of horses, caused by the recessive "e" gene.
Sorrel or chestnut coloration can be distinguished from dun by the fact that a dun horse has a gene that causes slightly washed-out yellowish color, with a darker mane and tail than the rest of its coat, may have areas of darker color on the shoulder and forelegs, and also possesses a narrow, dark line down the middle of the back.
A sorrel and a bay, especially a "blood bay," may be confused with one another. However, all bays have "black points" - a black mane, tail and lower legs. Light-colored sorrels, sometimes called "blond sorrels," especially if they have flaxen manes and tails, may resemble a palomino. However, true palomino coloration is the result of a horse's being heterozygous for the cream dilution gene.
Some definitions list sorrel is a self color, used to describe only horses whose mane, tail, and legs are the same color as the rest of the coat, with the exception of white markings. Other definitions are broader and include reddish-brown horses with flaxen manes and tails.
More often than not, the practical difference is usually not in color, but in usage: horses ridden in the Western tradition are more often referred to as sorrel and horses ridden in the English tradition are chestnut. Many organizations simply avoid the whole fuss and choose one of the two terms to denote all reddish or brown colorations that are not bay.

James Glen, 38, who was born in Ayr, Ayrshire, was sentenced at Chelmsford Crown Court in Essex after admitting "communicating information about a bomb hoax" on an Etihad Airways flight - the national airline of the United Arab Emirates - heading from Abu Dhabi to Heathrow on January 24.
The airliner was redirected to Stansted after the alarm was raised and two military jets scrambled to accompany it to the airport.
RAF Typhoons were called in to escort the plane, which was carrying 163 passengers and 15 crew, after Glen told a flight attendant that another passenger had a gun and had threatened to blow himself up.
The plane was flying on the day that 35 people - including British businessman Gordon Cousland - died in a suicide bomb attack at Moscow's busiest airport.
Glen had been living in Australia for 18 years and was returning to the UK to start a job as a panel beater and car sprayer in Chard, Somerset.
Duncan Penny, for Glen, said his client had a "reported" history of depression.
He said Glen, who began his journey in Melbourne, had "consumed alcohol" and taken an anti-histamine drug.
Mr Penny said Glen was on his first flight in 20 years, had expressed a fear of flying and was tired.

A recent Associated Press/MTV poll of youth in their teens and early 20s found that most of them — 56 percent — have been the target of some type of online taunting, harassment or bullying. Moreover, according to bullyingstatistics.org, last year about 160,000 children a day missed school out of fear of being bullied. And for many of them, when they weren't being physically picked on at or near school, they were having to endure cyberbullying — something that can haunt a child day and night, and it's on the rise.
Possibly the most confusing and complicated verb form in the English language is, paradoxically, also about the shortest: to be.
In many languages — not just in English — the different forms of the word seem to defy logic. You start with "be," but you can't change the tense of it by saying or writing "beed"; no, instead many forms of the word branch out: am, was, were, been, being. To most English speakers, the various permutations come naturally, but in other languages, such as Spanish, the issue seems much more difficult.
There's a touch of cruel irony in the fact that Henry Sanchez died of an apparent heart attack. The man, after all, was all heart.
Sanchez, a former mayor of Las Vegas as well as a legendary New Mexico coach, died last week at the too-young age of 74. He left behind family, friends — and a better world, thanks to his service to God and community.
If you want to read some beautiful prose about the purity of family and friendships, J.P. Baca's book isn't for you.
But if you want to read a raw expression of one man's rise above harsh and abusive conditions to conquer his own little piece of the world, you should read "Blessings in Disguise."

THUMBS UP! RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECTS ... A handful of renewable energy projects in New Mexico will be funded through federal grants and loans, according to a recent Associated Press report.

Greetings to all!
First ofall, I greatly appreciate all of the feedback of every one who pitched in on their views of straight pipes on my GL. Just to let you all know, I went to a 1 3/4" staight exhaust pipe and I love it!
Know for the "Meat and Potatoe" question. A wire runs from the thermostat switch to, what looks like, another switch, on top of the motor, just below that fuel pump... what is that for?!?!
I have installed a new thermostat switch on my 77 GL1000. My fan still will not come on. I have not completed all of the trouble shooting that I can do. However, I looked, with the help of a good friend and traced the wire in the diagram in my manuel. However, it only lets me know that it is dark green (DG) wire. So, is the little "Thingy" on the motor, just below the fuel pump... what is it? Also, any trouble shooting tips for this issue would MOST appreciated. Thank you all for your advice.

Re: Overheating
Quick test for you; pull off the connector to the new fan switch (the rubber booted one with the two wires going to it) - find a short piece of spare insulated wire and strip off each end to expose the strands - with the ignition switched on and the kill switch to 'off', push each end of the spare wire into the connections in the rubber boot - the fan should start immediately. If the fan does not run, there is either no power going to one of the wires to the rubber boot, the fan motor is kaput or the motor is not connected (there is a small push fit tab connector lurking right behind the radiator near the top of it. There are other possibilities but try this simple test first.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Re: Overheating
Thanks for the feedback! I failed to mention that I have done a direct connections test from the battery to the fan, itself. I came on and ran just fine. I know that there is "More Than One Way To Skin A Cat" so I will most certainly check out the wires that you mentioned. Also, the one wire that runs from the therm switch to , what looks like some kind of sensor, by the fuel pump on top of the motor, what is that for? I know that I am a broken record about that piece but I have not been able to find anything about it in my manuel. Thanks again for your speeding feedback Hedgepig!

Re: Overheating
That single wire to a sensor you describe just above the fuel pump is the oil pressure switch; it just uses the same wiring sub-harness as the fan switch and temperature sender.

Ghana is a peaceful and stable democracy, making good progress toward its goal of becoming a middle-income country by 2020. With economic growth rates consistently topping 6 percent over recent years, Ghana is being hailed as an emerging African economic success story. It has had five consecutive democratic elections and two peaceful transitions of power since 1992, leading other African nations to look to Ghana for assistance with their own elections.
Since 1990, the Ghanaian government has been working closely with the donor community and has nearly halved the number of citizens living in extreme poverty. However, about 30 percent of Ghanaians still live on less than US$1.25/day. Some two million individuals have limited access to food, and food shortages are recurring in the three northern regions. Children are especially vulnerable, with approximately 12 percent of Ghana's children under the age of five currently underweight. Ghana ranks 138 out of 187 countries on the United Nations Development Programme's 2014 human development index.
In terms of the 2008 international food crisis, Ghana has been fairly successful in minimizing the effects by means of social support programs and such measures as the removal of import duties and taxes on food and fuel.
However, Ghana does face serious macroeconomic challenges, including high inflation, significant deficits, and a growing debt load due, in part, to high public sector spending to ease the impact of the international food and fuel price crises.
Ghana is still vulnerable to the ongoing effects of the global economic crisis, and poverty has recently deepened among some groups, especially women, farmers, and people living in the northern regions.
Ghana's main challenges include:
- Weak public sector institutions, resulting in poor delivery of basic services in areas such as agriculture, health, and education.
- Persistent food insecurity in the three northern regions.
- Limited access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.
- Inequality between women and men.
Find out what Canada is doing to support development in Ghana.
Thematic Focus
In 2014, Ghana was confirmed as a country of focus for the Government of Canada's international development efforts. In keeping with this agenda, Canada continues to provide direct support to the Government of Ghana's budget in order to carry out the objectives of Ghana's national plan.
Canada's international development program in Ghana builds on efforts already being undertaken by the Government of Ghana to support public sector reform, promote a stronger parliamentary role in terms of government oversight and accountability, and enhance public participation in the development and assessment of government plans and policies. Canada continues to have a strategic focus in the North—where poverty and food insecurity are highest—and continues to dialogue with the Government of Ghana, other donors, and various Canadian and local civil society organizations for more effective aid delivery.
Children and youth
Canada supports the Government of Ghana in playing a lead role in the design, development, and implementation of a multidonor program to support Ghana's new national water policy, which will have a significant impact on the health and well-being of women, children, and youth.
In keeping with Ghana's decentralization plan to deliver basic services more efficiently at the local level, Canada also provides increasing technical and financial assistance to local governments to help them provide health and education services that benefit children and youth.
Key anticipated results
- Developed water systems in a sustainable manner in 13 northern districts.
- Provided rural communities and small towns with access to safe drinking water.
- Provided households with access to safe drinking water in urban areas.
Food security
Canada supports efforts to increasing food security in Ghana through:
- Continued investment in community-level food security initiatives in the North.
- Complementary investments in agricultural research and in the strengthening of farmer-based organizations.
- Support to sustainable management of land and water resources.
Canada also continues to support efforts to the strengthen Ghana's Ministry of Food and Agriculture by helping it be more effective in implementing the national food and agriculture sector development policy.
Key anticipated results
- Trained government officials of the Northern Regional Coordination Council in the planning, coordination, and monitoring of food security initiatives.
- Strengthened farm-based organizations to function smoothly and support agricultural productivity.
- Improved access for farmers-women and men-to improved technology, farming advice, and agricultural supplies.
Progress on Aid Effectiveness
Aid effectiveness, as the term implies, is an approach for improved delivery and monitoring of aid to achieve greater efficiency, strengthened partnerships, and greater results. Overall, aid to Ghana is more untied, and more funds are flowing through program-based approaches. As well, donor coordination of analysis and reporting is more effective.
In 2008, Ghana hosted the Third High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness, and, in recent years, it has demonstrated strong ownership of the development agenda. The Government of Ghana has prepared a new aid policy containing bold measures to strengthen Ghanaian ownership and leadership of development cooperation in the country.
Achievements 2013-2014
Food security
- Provided supplementary feeding to 67,000 children younger than age five and 101,500 pregnant and lactating women suffering from malnutrition.
- Provided approximately 125,000 people with more than 10,000 metric tons of food through Food-For-Assets and Food-For-Training programs.
- Contributed to the increased production of staple foods from 28 million metric tonnes in 2010 to 28.8 million in 2011, making more food available for purchase throughout Ghana in spite of a poor growing season due to scarce and erratic rainfall.
- Trained 3,445 small food processors (80 percent female) on eight different technologies for processing crops to help reduce post-harvest losses and add market value.
- Helped build 250 dams and dugouts to provide a secure water supply for household and agricultural needs.
Children and youth
- Provided vitamin A to almost 5 million children, helping to improve child health and prevent disease
- Helped 87,655 people access safe drinking water through the provision of water systems in 150 rural communities and 7 small towns
- Helped increase access to improved sanitation, reaching 51,422 people and provided sanitation and hygience education to 56,361 children
- Trained more than 15,000 front-line health workers and community volunteers to manage undernutrition in children and treating 8,300 for malnutrition

I cannot have been the only member of the congregation who reflected, during the memorial service for veteran Observer journalist Anthony Sampson on St Patrick's Day, that the title of his last book - Who Runs This Place? - could hardly have been more appropriate.
The day before, we had witnessed a Budget speech during which the Chancellor, Gordon Brown, staked his latest claim to run the place, watched intently by the Prime Minister who officially runs the place and by the Leader of the Opposition, Michael Howard, who also wants the job.
In a succession of versions of his celebrated Anatomy of Britain , Sampson was fascinated by the role of the Treasury. The 1992 version, The Essential Anatomy of Britain - Democracy In Crisis , noted that 'Whitehall departments appear to have gained more autonomy from their old master, the Treasury ... but Treasury officials still find it hard to keep their hands off the departments as they clamp down on public spending, and develop more sophisticated financial controls'.
The reputation and 'running power' of the Treasury took a dive on Black Wednesday, but by the time Who Runs This Place? was published last year, shortly before his death, Sampson noted: 'Kenneth Clarke successfully restored the Treasury's self-respect after 1993.' However, 'when Gordon Brown became Chancellor in 1997, he gave the Treasury officials (as one of them remarked) their biggest stimulus since the Conservative victory in 1979'.
Sampson, always fascinated by power, observed that 'Brown had acquired almost unprecedented scope as Chancellor' and, drawing on an interview he greatly enjoyed, noted the Chancellor 'insisted that in fact "we allowed departments to be liberated".' Sampson added wryly: 'But that was not necessarily how they saw it.'
Nor, after last Wednesday's Budget speech, is it necessarily how viewers see it. As the commentator Anatole Kaletsky observes: 'Before Brown, Budget speeches used to be about running the economy. Now they are about running the whole country.'
It really is rather odd that other ministers should sit there while the Chancellor announces on their behalf what their respective departments are expected to do. It prompts some observers to ask why Brown wants to move next door at all, and others to speculate whether, with all these vicarious commitments, he becomes vulnerable if the most micro of micro policies goes wrong. But as one seasoned bureaucrat commented about this latter view: 'Don't you believe it for one moment.'
Because of the chronic tension between the Blair and Brown camps over who runs the place, and owing to the imminence of the election, the Budget generated far more interest than it otherwise might have done. In macroeconomic terms, it was what is known as'neutral': that is, it was not designed to speed up or slow down the economy. The desire to ram home his reputation for prudence was one of the factors that prevented the Chancellor from indulging in a pre-election 'giveaway Budget'. Another factor was that he had nothing to give away anyway, and the main budgetary concession - the £200 donation to the Council Tax payments of the over-65s, costing £800 million in the 2005-06 fiscal year - was financed by a sleight of hand in which the Treasury simply brought forward the dates on which oil companies will pay North Sea corporation tax.
Brown has been walking a tightrope into the sunset of his Golden Rule (balancing the current budget over the economic cycle) and he has got to the other side. But, with the Council Tax relief and one or two other smaller reliefs, the Chancellor has had to resort to altering the cashflow pattern of the oil companies. As one economist observed: 'Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.'
Neither the much trumpeted increase in child tax credit, nor the free bus travel for pensioners and the disabled, comes into force until the 2006-07 financial year, and the fuel duty concession runs only until after the summer holidays (and, funnily enough, the election). Nevertheless, with the payment for the over-65s (listed as 'supporting families and communities') plus stamp duty and inheritance tax changes, the Chancellor has shot a few opposition foxes. He has also mounted a welcome assault on the kind of 'financial engineering' whereby people and institutions that can well afford to pay them dodge taxes.
The Council Tax problems date back to the poll tax, the uproar about which arose not just from its regressive form, but also from the way, after my old friend Nigel Lawson lowered the top rate of tax from 60 per cent to 40 per cent in 1988, the Thatcher government deliberately shifted part of the tax burden onto local authorities - a trend that has not ceased under Labour.
There is no doubt that the Treasury has had to borrow more because revenues have been below earlier forecasts (although better in recent months than outside com mentators expected). But quite healthy increases in taxation are already built into the projections for the next few years, without the need to raise tax rates, because of the way increases in earnings take people into higher tax brackets.
This is a phenomenon known as 'fiscal drag'. As the Institute for Fiscal Studies noted in its 'Green Budget', 'the Treasury estimates that fiscal drag increases current receipts by 0.2 per cent of national income a year in total, about £2.4 billion'. That is equivalent to raising the higher rate of tax by 2p without the Treasury's having to do anything.
But the Treasury forecast of a rising tax take in future years depends not only on fiscal drag but also on more favourable assumptions about prospective revenues from corporation and other taxes (at existing rates) than those of other forecasters. This is the nub of all the recent fuss.
This particular debate is irrespective of any further debate there might be about the future shape of our society should Labour win and Brown become Prime Minister, and what that might imply for the balance of what is known as 'tax and spend'.
The truth is that, although Lawson's chancellorship is at present remembered mainly for the 'Lawson boom' and rows between Prime Minister and Chancellor ( plus ça change ), history may conclude that his real impact was in moving the debate several leagues to the right by lowering the top rate of tax to 40 per cent, a rate Labour has not dared to touch.
I sniff the whiff of revenge in the way Labour has seized on a figure of £35bn for putative 'Tory spending cuts' in years to come. The £35bn rankles with Labour; the Tories, in two previous elections, made much of the threat of £35bn of tax increases under Labour, to devastating effect.
Meanwhile, I feel it is difficult for the Conservatives to have it both ways - warning of tax increases under Labour because of the alleged state of the finances, while promising tax cuts, should they win the election, from the very same budgetary finances. I know the figuring is more subtle than that, but it is a difficult message to get across.
As for Blair, Brown and Who Runs This Place? , Sampson concluded that the very 'future of the government depended on the power struggles between the two men'.
Reconciliation? Orderly handover? As Tony O'Reilly says of the reaction of the boss of a small Irish firm when O'Reilly, as head of Heinz, made a big pitch for a deal: 'Jeez, Tony, the lies we could tell together ....'

You may have heard of
Though there is no guarantee,
A little country called England
Coming from there is me
You probably won't have heard
Unless you are a Briton
Of anywhere of the north east of England
Now let it's tale be written...
You should...
Know that "No" is "Na"
and the word like is used
Quite a bloody lot
And if you ask for help
The locals will
Tell you to ---- off
This is mostly in a city called Newcastle
Where the locals are the Geordies
but can spread across the region
Into such cities as Sunderland
More slang is Alreet ya na
And if ya do use it you're called a charva
and if ya divvent na what that means
You're a friggen dafty
'Cause when you near Geordie land
Ya better kna boot this
Or ya will be called a gourmless lad
Or pet if ya a lassie
Or maybe they'll call ya a muppet like
but They think tha way they all talk
is mint
why aye they may have a point like.
(By the way if you know what I'm saying
You deserve a medal)
Near Newcastle there is some
smaller towns around
Shields for one South and North
and three villages called Boldon
And not forgetting Jarrow
Confusingly called by the locals Jarra.
Jarrow and Newcastle
are remembered in the good old day's
For Ships and coals respectively
Newcastle has a river called the Tyne
And Sunderland has one called the wear
I myself am the best thing to come from the area
Since Ant and Dec
Or the guy who invented the train
Or the other guy who invented the lightbulb
And only if my hamster has died on the day
And I am smart, and insane
the moon and 7 of the planets align
While David Cameron watches Hollyoaks
Am I ever serious.
I like to write I like videogames and doing nothing
I am a evil critic
And make a point about being brutally honest
So that's what I am and where I'm from
What about what I do
I make thing's for people to read
People just like you.
