Tony Blair answered a range of tricky questions at his monthly press conference, but on one issue he was completely silent.
He repeatedly refused to discuss cash-for-honours allegations, and whether his friend Lord Goldsmith, a man he appointed as attorney general, should decide whether there should be charges over the scandal.
This uncharacteristic reticence appeared to confirm a Mail on Sunday story that the PM is in a "blind panic" over the police investigation into the affair.
But while Blair was peculiarly silent on the subject, political bloggers have been talking about little else over the weekend.
Most agree that Lord G should have no part in the decision. "If this is not a clear case of 'conflict of interest' then I'm a Swiss cheese," says Politaholic.
Rich 'the druid' Edwards gives us a history lesson on Lord Goldsmith's tricky constitutional position.
Iain Dale says that if Lord Goldsmith had an "ounce of honour" he would stand aside from the investigation. But he predicts that he won't. "After all, this is the man who first of all declared the Iraq war to be illegal, then for some strange reason, changed his mind," Dale says.
Mr Eugenides also turns to sarcasm "Who better, frankly, to advise on a criminal investigation into whether the Labour party rewards party donors with peerages than Peter Goldsmith - a Labour donor who subsequenly became a peer?"
Tim Worstall</strong predicts that Lord Goldsmith will have to recommend that prosectuions be bought just to prove his impartiality.
That won't do for Aaron Heath, who says the row exposes the need for constitional reform and a proper separation between the executive and the judiciary.
But some refuse to see what all the fuss is about judging from a comment on the Tory blog Croydonian. The alleged handing out of "badges for cash" is much less of a crime than taxpayers funding political parties, according to Newmania.
The comment also points out that the Tories are also implicated in the cash for honours allegations.

I let him get close to me and I gun it in third because he's pulling hard. I slow down and let him pass and we come to a light. There's cars next in the other land so i get behind him. he starts singnaling me to get over in the shoulder to race him. I wasn't about to race him in the shoulder lane so we both gun it off the line. I nearly ram into the back of his car in first gear and I rode his ass before I slowed down in third. I think it was automatic or he didn't know how to drive it because I would have taken him off the line. I thought those things were faster. I had to turn off on a ramp so we didn't get to line up after that. I know those thing are fast in higher gears but I thought they were faster than a WRX off the line.

Individual wrote:What do you mean by "on the path"? Is he Buddhist or Christian? It really depends a lot on who this person is and the details you gave are too vague.
If he is a stubborn atheist or doesn't like religion, it's unlikely anything you could say or do would be helpful.
If he's a Jew, Christian or Muslim, you should talk to him on his own terms: tell him that God is all-loving and all-forgiving, that the important thing is to have faith in God, and that death is not the end, only another beginning. And that although he may be afraid, he can look forward to being free of the pain he's in right now and experiencing God's grace. Tell him that during the death process, he can find strength from angels God sends, to ease his pain during the process.
If he is interested in a more Buddhist perspective, I would say: Tell him to face death with the attitude of profound universal love (boundless love for oneself and others) and fearlessness. Tell him, in his last 3 months, to focus on the four brahmaviharas:
- Lovingkindness -- through being friendly and kind to others, or at least focusing on it mentally
- Sympathetic Joy -- through making others happy, being appreciative, being joyful in their positive mental qualities, including being happy for their happiness
- Compassion -- through being helpful to others, in any way he can, or in his case, trying not to be a burden
- Equanimity -- through not being for or against anything, not desiring death or fearing it, not desiring life or being afraid to lose it.
If he could maintain just half of those four qualities consistently for the 7 days leading up to his death, he would be assured that he would be reborn in a wonderful heaven.
Also, tell him to look for a kind of happiness that is independent of the circumstances he's in right now. He could find this place by thinking about all the good things he has done in his life, all the people he has loved and who have loved him.

Marlin Camp 45 Carbine
Just picked up a Marlin Camp 45 Carbine today for $400. Been wanting one for a long time since I am a 1911 enthusiast and like the fact that they use 1911 mags of which I have a crap load. It is used but seems to be in good condition aside from some scratches on the barrel and a crack in the stock right behind the tang. I have done some reading on the web and this seems to be a common problem with these guns due to the light factory recoil springs used so I have already ordered a Choate folding stock and a Wolff 16.5# recoil spring. I also ordered a Blackjack buffer pad.
I would greatly appreciate any other advice or reviews from those who have experience with these guns. Thanks.

If your .45 CC has the 'Micro-Groove' rifling, don't shoot lead bullets because the lead deposits in the tiny rifling grooves are damn near impossible to get completely out, and accuracy will quickly deteriorate after a 50rd box. I had the 9mm version and loved it except for having easily the worst trigger i've ever felt on any firearm. Creepy, heavy, crunchy, ugh..
The wood stocks can be improved by painting and/or staining
Great guns, excellent find

Great price on that. I have the camp nine, I am more stocked in 9mm than 45. If one came by at that price, I would definitely grab it though. Fun guns. Do yourself a favor and get a heavy recoil spring (wolff) and a new buffer, maybe even a spare, from the get-go. Replace the buffer every 5 k rounds and you will never have to worry. Cheap insurance. Srr you already took care of that....cool.
|The Following User Says Thank You to reverendg For This Useful Post:
Congrats on a good find.
You might want the Wolff 21lb# spring instead. I am mostly a 9MM guy and have several Camp-9's. I do have a 45 though and so do many of my friends. I use the 16.5's for the 9's and the 21's for the 45's. I'm going to try a 21lb spring on the 9MM too, because it may keep them cleaner.
I have both Choate stocks. The folding and the collapsable models. Both get the job done just fine.
+1 on the Blackjack.

I have both 9mm and .45. the 21# spring is better in the .45
if you want a better trigger pull out the magazine safety disconnector. try marlin forum for good tips. great carbines and with the right handloads hard-hitting
|The Following 2 Users Say Thank You to Marlin 45 carbine For This Useful Post:
Great stuff guys! I really appreciate the tips.
Filthy - I don't see myself shooting non-jacketed ammo but that is definitely good to know about the micro-groove rifling. Thanks!
Magman and Marlin - Thanks for the tip on the 21# spring. I wish I had known that before I ordered the 16.5# Wolff. Oh well. I just ordered the 21# spring from Blackjack along with an extra recoil buffer. I guess I can use the 16.5# spring as a spare. Or maybe I will have to get the 9mm version too!
Magman - Which of the Choate stocks do you prefer? I ordered the folding version but I am having second thoughts now that I should have ordered the adjustable AR style version. I have several AR's and it would be nice to have a similar feeling stock and cheek weld, and I would also like my petite wife and 12 year old son to be able to shoot it so the adjustable stock might have been the better choice even though it is $25 more from MidwayUSA.
Does anybody have any experience with what magazines the gun likes / dislikes? I have lots of 8 and 10 round mags from various manufacturers (mostly Chip McCormick and Kimber), but I was thinking about getting a couple of 15 round mags to give it higher capacity. Any thoughts or recommendations? Any to avoid (ie - ProMags)?
What about scope bases? I dont care for the iron sights the gun has and would like to mount a red-dot or reflex sight on it. It looks like it takes the same mount as the Marlin 336 and there are several options there for Weaver style bases, but I would prefer a picatinny rail.
|The Following User Says Thank You to DontTreadOnMe For This Useful Post:
As for the stock, I definitely think the other one would be better for the smaller people to use. My folder is on a 9N in my trunk with my BOB, the adjustables are on my shooters. Extra spring and stock, makes 2 reasons to get a Camp-9.
As for mags, Mec-Gars have always worked well for me. I only have pistol mags for my 45, but my High Cap 12 to 20rd 9MM mags are S&W, Marlin and Mec-Gar, and they are all flawless in function. (The S&W's are made by Mec-Gar) My largest 9MM mags are only 20rds so they don't hang to low and get in the way. Probably limit my 45 mags to 10rds for that reason too. Just my preference.
I used Millett bases and rings for the red dot on one of my Camp-9's and they are fine. Very stout. I may try the rail system too, as I have a Leupold 2x7 22LR scope that I am going to try on another one of the Camp-9's. I'd like to try a reflex sight too.
Hope this helped. Enjoy your new shooter....and get a 9 too!!!

Thanks again Magman. I really appreciate all the advice. I will keep my eyes peeled for another one in 9mm.

Great find. I see the 9mm from time to time, but seldom does anyone give up the .45.
I have always liked the camp carbine. I think that if I ever found one at a shop I would buy it. But I never do , and when at home I always forget to check gunbroker for one. So for those of you that have both the 9mm & the .45 acp are there any performance specs you can give. Such as chrono, accuracy , bullet weights for best results and the like? I recenty built a 9mm AR15, using a RRA 16" Barrel, deticated lower, and all that. It is great fun and though I have yet to chrono it with my fav loads it is much quieter than the handguns (Duh I Know). So getting a gun that could share my 1911 mags would be pretty cool. I mean everyone needs a few rifles and handguns that shoot the same ammo. On a side note I have often wondered why no company every mane aftermarket high cap mags for the ruger 44 with the detachable magazines. A ten shot .44 mag Ruger Semiauto just seems like it would be loads of fun.
Has anyone added a suppressor? Any favorite brands of suppressor for the Camp 45? It would be nice to get a threaded barrel for my 1911's so magazine's and suppressor's could be interchanged. Just a thought.....
Ive really enjoyed mine. The gun is just a hoot.
Super portable and accurate.
I can get groups at 50yds similiar to my 1911s at 25yds.
To me thats what its all about.
It truly is great for.....well,..camping.
For $400 you'll make out fine on resell if you decide you don't like it.
Well I have had my Camp 45 for about a month now and I am really glad I bought it, but I have learned a few lessons about these guns that I thought I would share with others who may also have one or are thinking about getting one.
First let me share a traumatic experience I had with the gun before I even had a chance to shoot it. I bought the gun used of course and it was dirty as h-e-l-l so when my new stock and recoil spring arrived I proceeded to thoroughly disassemble and clean the gun. I did not dare to disassemble the lower receiver that contains the trigger housing and magazine well but I did try to clean it as best I could with q-tips and CLP. I was in my storage room in my basement and as I was fumbling around with the receiver and q-tips with my hands all greasy from the CLP and all the crud that I was cleaning out of it and the receiver slipped out of my hands. I watched in horror as it fell from about 5 feet and hit the concrete floor and little parts went flying everywhere!! In shock I hit the floor on my hands and knees and managed to find all the little parts and springs that came out but I really thought I had ruined the gun before I had even gotten to shoot it! One of the reasons I thought I had ruined the gun is a small black piece of plastic I had found on the ground right next to one of the springs that had flown out of the gun. The lower receiver of the Camp Carbine is made of plastic so I thought it was a piece that broke off from the impact and I frantically began looking over the receiver to see where it had broken off of. After several tense minutes of careful inspection with a flashlight I could not see where the piece had broken off of and I was scared that it had broken off somewhere underneath the trigger mechanism where I could not see. Well it turned out that the small piece of plastic was not from the gun at all. It was just a small piece of a black nylon zip tie that had been trimmed off and fell on the floor earlier because I use the same room to repair computers. But as relieved as I was I still had no idea how to put all the other small parts back together so I began searching the web for information and stumbled across a Marlin forum that has a section devoted to the Camp Carbine. This was a life saver and I was able to find information on how to re-assemble the parts but I had no idea if the gun would function properly so I finished cleaning and re-assembling the gun with the new stock and recoil spring and then headed out to the range to test fire it. I felt a flood of relief as I pulled the trigger for the first time and the gun went bang so I put 100 rounds of 230gr Ball through it to make sure and not only did it function flawlessly but I was surprised by its accuracy. Even with the iron sights I had no trouble keeping all my shots inside the 6" black circle on my target at 25 yards. I then moved the target out to 50 yards and got the same results shooting off a rest. So long story short the gun functions flawlessly and it is a blast to shoot. It is like shooting a big bore 10/22. In fact the Camp 45 is exactly what I would imagine you would get if you mated a 1911 with a 10/22. I have since taken it out two other times and have no trouble busting milk jugs out to 100 yards with it after putting a red dot sight on so I am thrilled with the gun.
Here are a few lessons I have learned about the gun:
1) Be careful cleaning the lower receiver. You have to remove it from the action to clean the rifle but I would not attempt strip it down any further unless you are a skilled gunsmith. Also be careful what kinds of solvents you use to clean the gun because they can melt the plastic of the lower receiver. I prefer to use CLP to clean my guns and this works great for this gun.
2) Replace the factory recoil spring right away. A 21# Wolff spring is ideal for the Camp 45 and makes the recoil very soft. My 12 year old son loves shooting it and the recoil doesnt bother him a bit. I would also replace the factory recoil buffer with a Blackjack buffer.
3) The Choate folding stock is really nice and perfect for this gun! The only complaint I have is that you have to take the stock off to disassemble and clean the gun but this is not the fault of the stock. It is the same way with a 10/22.
4) Although the Camp 45 takes 1911 magazines there are some kinds that will not work. I have lots of 1911 magazines and the ones that have a round cutout on the rear side magazine lip will NOT work. They catch on the magazine disconnect and will not insert into the gun. The 1911 magazines that have the square cutout work just fine.
5) The iron sights are not great but any scope mount that will fit the Marlin 336 will also fit the Camp Carbine.
6) MidwayUSA is a great place to go for Camp Carbine parts and accessories.
7) I am now in the market for a Camp 9mm Carbine to keep my Camp 45 company.

If you haven't changed the buffer yet, do so. The factory buffers are trouble prone and can result in damage to the gun if they fail. Wisners (if I remember right) and Blackjack Buffers make replacements that are higher quality than the factory unit.

I'm not advocateing anyone to do this but w/the heavier recoil springs in my 9 and .45 I've had great results with handloaded +P ammo.
124 gr jhp in the 9 and 185gr in the .45. both over Power Pistol.
both really 'whack' a steel disc at 100 yds.

I have already purchased 5 Blackjack buffers. That was one of the first upgrades I made before I even took it to the range. The original buffer looked so old and brittle that I was afraid it might shatter into a thousand pieces.
Marlin 45,
That is one of my biggest questions I still have about the Camp 45 - whether or not to shoot +P ammo, and what kind of muzzle velocity I can expect. As mentioned, I have replaced the recoil spring with a 21# Wolff in addition to the Blackjack buffer, but I am still nervous about shooting +P ammo. For one thing, I have read that the hammer strut bridge is another part that is vulnerable to breaking if you shoot heavy loads, and I have not been able to find anyone that sells spares. It is the one part that MidwayUSA doesn't carry. Are you familiar with this part? If so, what are your thoughts about its vulnerability and where I can get a replacement? I am familiar with it because it is one of the small parts that flew out of the lower receiver when I dropped it and I had to figure out how they all went back together. I read on the Marlin forum that some guys have machined them from saw blades but I am not that mechanically inclined. I would really like to have a few spares though.

+P's are fine in the carbine with the 21# spring and replacement buffer.
As factory, I'd say no way.
The carbine length really doesn't add the velocity to a 45acp like it does the 9.
Not like you'd expect. Maybe 50fps or so. It is surprising.
I have a hunting load of a 230gr JHP, over Bluedot.
The exact loading escapes me at the moment, but it was taken straight from
the latest Lymans manual, for that powder and cartridge.
I've chronyd it at just a smidge under 1000fps.
It is devastating to whitetail.
To me +P isn't worth messing with in the 45acp.
It's track record is fine without the extra few fps.

Bulls Look to Extend Hot Streak
By USF
Related Links
By TOM ZEBOLD
USF Senior Writer
TAMPA - Every match is important for the red-hot and nationally ranked Bulls.
The No. 34 USF women's tennis team starts its run for a fifth straight victory at noon on Wednesday when it hosts a University of Denver team that has head coach Agustin Moreno's full attention.
"I think the parity in college tennis has been improved the last few years," he said. "Even though the University of Denver is not ranked it's going to be a tough match. They are a well-coached team, have everything to win and nothing to lose. They are going to come after us and we know it."
It's certainly been tough to beat the Bulls lately with only Georgetown being able to reach a third point during USF's winning streak.
"I think we've been tournament-fit," said Moreno after USF went 4-0 last week. "We are ready for anything."
USF is 11-5 this spring and the thing that has stood out to Moreno is his team's close bond through the solid string of success.
"We have a lot of respect for each other - coaches and players - and I think we are all on the same page of fighting everyone," he said. "We are a fighting team."
Wednesday's match at the USF Varsity Courts is free for fans.

In a scene to be shown on Wednesday 9 July, the pair sit on Maxine's bench and Izzy tries to get her partner to admit that what they're going through is more than just a bad patch. They both get emotional and hug, but can they admit that what they had is over? It's awful for them both. It's as though they have nothing left to say to one another," says Mikey North. "It's quite sad, really. It's slightly easier for them to come to the conclusion that it's over because they both feel the same.

Peru will create 2 million jobs for country's poorest, says Minister of Labor
According to Rudecindo Vega, Minister of Labor, at least 50% of jobs created under the new proposal, will be designated to women.
Over the next five years the government will have created more than two million jobs with the implementation of 'Trabaja Peru' ('Work Peru'), a program designed to improve living conditions amongst the country's poorest, said today the Minister of Labour, Rudecindo Vega.
Vega said that programs such as 'Trabaja Peru' also promoted social inclusion and strengthened the country's economic growth.
On Wednesday Vega signed an agreement with Aida Garcia Naranjo, Minister of Women's Affairs, that stipulates that at least 50% of the jobs generated by 'Trabaja Peru' would be for women who were single parents or main breadwinners.
He added that he hoped that this document would promote the inclusion of women at the state policy level and not just an agreement between ministers.
Vega said that in some cases, such as in Puno, women already have 80% of the jobs created.
According to Andina news agency, Garcia welcomed the Ministry of Labor's proposal and considered it was very important to include women in further social inclusion strategies.

It's been two months since Travis's family moved from their shabby old house to a development so new that it seems totally unreal. There's one place, though, where Travis can still connect with his old life: the Salinas library. Travis and his family used to go there together every Saturday, but now he bikes to it alone, re-reading his favorite books: the works of John Steinbeck. Suddenly Travis is seeing Steinbeck's characters come to life. There's the homeless man in the alley behind the library, the boy who writes by night in an attic bedroom. Travis has met them before as a reader. But how can they be here now? And why?

History of Hydrogeology (IAH - International Contributions to Hydrogeology) by Nicholas Howden and John Mather
English | 2012 | ISBN: 0415630622 | 424 pages | PDF | 46 MB
Lessons can be learnt from the past; from time to time it is useful for practitioners to look back over the historical developments of their science. Hydrogeology has developed from humble beginnings into the broad church of investigatory procedures which collectively form the modern-day hydrogeologist's tool box.
Hydrogeology remains a branch of the over-arching science of geology and today provides analysis of the sub-surface part of the water cycle within a holistic approach to problem solving.
The History of Hydrogeology, is a first attempt to bring the story of the evolution of the science of hydrogeology together from a country or region specific viewpoint. It does not cover history to the present day, nor does it deal with all countries involved in groundwater studies, but rather takes the story for specific key countries up and until about the period 1975 to 1980. This is when hydrogeology was still evolving and developing, and in some areas doing so quite rapidly.
The book has been written not only for practitioners of hydrogeology and hydrology but also for teachers and students to see the context of the evolution of the science around the globe. The History of Hydrogeology will also be of interest to science historians and all those interested in the role that individuals, institutes and nations have played over the years in defining modern day studies of groundwater.

Timeless and tough, relaxed and versatile, our relationship with denim has been a loving and enduring one and is still very much alive. Colour Me Beautiful image consultant JULIA CUMMING gives some tips on how to look stylish in jeans
JEANS were originally created in the 19th century as men's work-wear, dyed with indigo.
The fabric later became popular with the Californian Gold Rush miners because it was so durable.
In 1853, a New Yorker called Levi Strauss moved to San Francisco, where he started a clothes wholesale business and made the jeans a popular item of clothing.
In the 1950s, just as celebrities dictate the latest look in jeans today, film stars like Marlon Brando and James Dean made denim jeans a fashion item. The rest, as they say, is history.
The great thing about jeans right now is that pretty much any style goes, as long as they look good on you. Denim is a great wardrobe staple with something to suit everyone, and this spring/summer, in addition to jeans, it is appearing in all sorts of guises, from dresses to jumpsuits and duffle bags.
Our body shape, personality and age all contribute to which styles of jeans are most flattering, so here are some basic rules to help you choose the right jeans for you:
1) Boot cut - straight at the thigh, flaring a little near the ankles. This style never seems to be out of fashion and that is because it is flattering on most figures. It has a softer look than a straight legged style, and is therefore more flattering for mature figures and for balancing out inverted triangle body shapes. Boot cut jeans look great with flat shoes and boots, but also are fabulous for dressing up with heels.
2) Skinny jeans - tight jeans that fit very closely on the leg. This style is best suited to straighter body shapes with little waist definition and small hips. Curvier figures can and do wear them, but just keep in mind that if you are heavy on the hip, thighs or bottom, the super-narrow ankle will accentuate those areas. If you are curvy but have good legs and slim ankles (many round/'apple' shapes do) then a narrow leg can work if you wear jeans as leggings, such as with soft flowing tops. Hourglass figures should opt for soft, stretchy denim so it won't fight against the curves. Good for tucking into boots.
3) Straight leg - completely straight on the leg, doesn't widen at the calf or ankles. In between skinny and boot cut and easier to get into than skinny. These can work well on triangle ('pear') and round ('apple') body shapes as they fit neatly at the top so there is no excess fabric adding volume around the hip or tummy. The straightness from the knee balances your shape better than skinny jeans. A bit of stretch in the denim will add comfort. They are also great for petite ladies as the straight style gives an elongating effect. Straight enough to tuck into boots. Good for all ages.
4) Flared - can be a looser fit from the top going down to a bigger flare at the ankle, or can be narrow at the thigh and knee, widening at the calf. Flares have been updated from the original 'bell bottom' jeans but they still give us a bit of trendy 70s chic. They are generally a looser fit and not as narrow at the top as the previous cuts. This style works best on taller ladies, from slim to very curvy. You need, however, to consider how loose they are and consequently how much bulk they add to your figure. If you are short then you should avoid flares as they will swamp you. Good for any age.
5) Boyfriend Jeans - looser fit from top to ankle, generally lower on the hips. These are exactly as the name implies - a man's cut made for women. They can be comfy and they are a very current look. However, it is a masculine style, so not the most flattering unless you can really carry it off with the whole look. Great on slim or younger figures and teamed with heels.
**Consider where the waistband sits on you; beware the 'muffin top'. Higher waistbands are more flattering on the tummy. If you are naturally high-waisted, you may prefer a slightly lower waistband to give the illusion of a lower waist, but take care if you are short in the leg, as they will appear even shorter, so choose straight leg jeans and slightly higher waistbands.
* Consider the weight of the denim: curvier figures need plenty of Lycra or spandex stretch in the fabric, while stiffer, more structured material is best for straighter body shapes. If you want the denim look without the stiff fabric you could opt for cotton denim and this season's denimcoloured clothes. If you have short legs, avoid wide leg jeans and flat shoes with your jeans; even a small heel will help elongate the leg.
* Colour: take care with pale denim on the bottom half if you are short and curvy - it can appear to add pounds. Darker denim is more slimming, elongating, versatile and stylish.
* Size: when buying new jeans, don't get hung up about the size; just get a pair which fits your individual body shape and proportions.
* Enjoy wearing your jeans and remember that price per wear, a good pair of jeans will earn their place in your wardrobe.

The Matrix (1999)
165 mistakes
Directed by: Andy Wachowski, Lana Wachowski
Starring: Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Gloria Foster, Joe Pantoliano
Vote on The Matrix, Hugo Weaving and more movies at The Big Fat List
Continuity mistake: After the helicopter smashes into the building and Neo saves Trinity, they look at each other and you can see smoke from the building. After that, Morpheus is talking to Neo. You can see several shots of him and Neo talking and behind them, the building and its windows are still intact.
Continuity mistake: During the rooftop scene check out the tiling situation. When Neo takes two bullets, he falls to the ground. He lies mainly inside one tile, even the left gun fits in. (And it's on a vertical line) His top hand lies just on the line. Now, watch again when the agent is dead. All of the sudden he's in-between two tiles, and the gun is now on a horizontal line, but not a vertical.
Continuity mistake: When Agent Smith is seen the first time, he is talking to the old cop outside, then begins to walk away and the other agent follows. The cop turns his head to continue to look at the other agent when he is walking away or past him, yet in the following shot the cop has his head turned, but the other agent is still in sight and is just barely walking past him.
Continuity mistake: When Neo is in the helicopter firing the automatic weapon into the building he is moving the gun horizontally. The bullets strike vertically, though, starting from the floor near the window and traveling upwards towards the back wall of the room. There are two shots that show this.
Continuity mistake: Near the start, when Agent Smith jumps over the building and the police officer in the front says, "It's impossible," look closely in the background when the agent lands. You can see it's a different officer than the one that said it.
Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning of the Subway fight there's a shot of Morpheus, then of Neo, then in the next shot of Agent Smith the white screen is visible in the right lens of his glasses.
Other mistake: When Neo shoots with the chopper's machine gun the window smashes from a single point in the middle, shattering two panes. Water then starts splashing up from bullet impacts right at the base of the window, but the glass doesn't smash anywhere around there - it could only work like that if Neo was shooting down at an incredibly sharp angle, which he obviously isn't.
Continuity mistake: When Neo and Morpheus are going to see the Oracle, they approach the elevator. Neo is standing on the right and Morpheus is standing on the left. Yet when they enter the elevator, Morpheus and Neo both come from the right.
Continuity mistake: In the beginning, Neo opens the FedEx envelope twice.
Continuity mistake: Near the middle of the film when we see Morpheus and Neo have entered the Matrix in a scene that begins at a city intersection with a "Walk/Don't Walk" Traffic Sign. Just as the cross the street, Morpheus is speaking to Neo, the next shot looks over Neo's shoulder back towards the intersection, it is no longer visible, as though they have traveled farther down the block than physically possible in the time allotted.
Continuity mistake: During the fight scene in the train station between Agent Smith and Neo, after a lot of fighting Neo is thrown back and throws up blood. He then gets up and wipes it off with the back of his hand. Straight after that, it isn't visible anymore. It's completely vanished.
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film, when Neo is having the conversation with his boss about his arrival time at the office, when the camera is on Neo, his hands are behind his back, when the is on his boss (showing Neo's back), Neo's hands are in front of him. They're all instant cuts - no time for him to move.
Continuity mistake: In the lobby scene, after the SWAT team has entered, one of the SWAT guys charges, firing his M16 at Trinity. After she kicks him while he's putting in a new clip, his right hand's empty in the close up, but is holding the M16 (which he then drops) in the wider shot.
Visible crew/equipment: Bad idea to have mirrored sunglasses in the movie. Look into the lenses of the agents, Neo, Trinity, and any one else who has them, and you can see the camera perfectly.
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the film we see Neo in the chopper firing the mini gun through the window at the agents. In one particular shot note the metal chair pulled out from the desk which falls over after being shot at, then a few shots later is suddenly back upright again.
Continuity mistake: At the first chase scene between Trinity and the agent on the roof, just after the agent shoots at Trinity, she runs off, here you can see the agent coming into view by the chimney, and in the following shot he is coming into view again.
Factual error: When Agent Brown shoots at Neo on the skyscraper, the last shot scrapes Neo in the knee and on his shoulder. This would cause both shots to be vertical when standing up. However, when Neo stands up and indicates to the scrape, the shoulder scrape is horizontal - not possible given the trajectory Agent Brown is firing from.
Continuity mistake: In the fight in the toilet between Morpheus and Agent Smith, they're on the floor and Smith has his glasses on. Smith prises Morpheus' hands off him, punches him back against the wall, stands up in a menacing way, and his glasses aren't on any more. He wasn't hit at any point in that brief exchange, so where have his sunglasses disappeared to? [Only in the UK version - the BBFC's got a thing against headbutts, so cut several out from the film. In this case it caused Smith's sunglasses to disappear for no reason.]
Continuity mistake: In the subway fight scene, Neo is thrown to the floor and wipes blood from his mouth on his hand. It then cuts back to Agent Smith. When it cuts back to Neo, he assumes a fighting stance and you can see that there is no blood on either side of his hands.
Factual error: After securing the rooftop with the helicopter, Trinity calls Tank and says, "I need a pilot program for a B212 helicopter." Tank's screen shows the silhouette of a Bell 206 helicopter.

Very infrequent lurker here that's stuck inside due to rain.
If you want to "block" more than one person the easiest thing is to "group" your friends and then you can set your privacy things to exclude a group. I did that with all my work people just in case one of my friends tags me in something or says something strange on my wall.
So for example my work peeps are automatically blocked from all photo albums, status updates, etc. unless I change it to allow them to any specific album/post. I like this WAY better because I don't have to remember to exclude them each time.
Hope this is making sense. Freaking Facebook and all it's confusing ways...

Iraqi scientists refuse private interviews with U.N. inspectors; Blix says Baghdad not complying demands
Iraqi scientists are refusing private interviews with U.N. inspectors despite the strong urgings of the Iraqi government, a senior Iraqi official said Thursday.
On his part, U.S. Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz said that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein had threatened cooperative scientists with death. Chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix, meanwhile, complained Iraq was still not complying fully with U.N. demands.
"Today we know from multiple sources that Saddam has ordered that any scientist who cooperates during interviews will be killed, as well as their families," Wolfowitz said in New York.
Despite the scientists' balking at interviews, Lt. Gen. Hossam Mohammed Amin said Baghdad hopes the chief U.N. inspectors will submit a progress report to the Security Council that falls short of declaring Iraq in material breach of the latest U.N. disarmament resolution.
Amin said the government had encouraged a half-dozen scientists to meet privately with the inspectors, but the scientists had refused.
"As we promised, that we shall encourage the scientists to make interviews, we did our best to push the scientists," Amin said. "But they refused to make such interviews without the presence of (Iraqi) officials."
During a news conference, Amin said top inspectors Hans Blix and Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the U.N. nuclear agency, had "exaggerated" differences between them and the Iraqi government after talks in the Iraqi capital on Sunday and Monday.
Amin noted that Blix said after Monday's talks that outstanding issues included Iraq's refusal to allow reconnaissance overflights by U.S. U-2 spy planes to help the U.N. inspectors' hunt for banned weapons programs.
"He accused us of putting unnecessary conditions and so forth, which is inaccurate," said Amin, the chief liaison with the U.N. weapons monitors.
Amin said U.S. surveillance aircraft that flew missions in support of U.N. inspections in the 1990s spied on Iraq's "conventional defense capabilities" and gave the information to the CIA.
According to AP, he said Iraq was simply seeking "safeguards" that would "secure our right to defend our sky and our ground." He noted that U.S. and British jets still patrol no-fly zones over Iraq — which Baghdad maintains are illegal — and that the presence of American spy planes in Iraqi skies would "complicate the air defense project."
In New York, however, Blix repeated his complaints about Iraqi cooperation, especially on the surveillance flights issue. Blix said his teams were gaining access to sites but Baghdad still wasn't fully cooperating.
"I realize there are things that have gone well like access and setting up infrastructure. But there are other areas where we are not satisfied and the U-2 is one of them," Blix said. (Albawaba.com)

The main menu also houses Internet@TV, which provides online access to various applications. The choice of content is greater than Panasonic's similar Viera Cast feature, with a list that includes YouTube, Twitter, Picasa, AccuWeather.com and Rovi TV listings, as well as a wide range of other applications that can be downloaded from Samsung's database. The system supports about 100 different applications, and among the batch we downloaded were USA Today, Texas Hold 'Em Poker, Getty Images and History. Facebook and LoveFilm also appeared, but weren't yet available to use.
Although the content won't appeal to everyone and can be a bit of a pain to use with the remote, Internet@TV is a fun way to while away the hours, and provided your internet connection is fast enough it's a hassle-free experience - you can find out how fast yours is using the handy built-in broadband speed checker.
We also tried out the All Share feature and were taken aback by how quick and easy it was to access music on our connected laptop. Everything is presented in neatly arranged folders, allowing you to browse by artist, album and so forth, and during playback it displays the track info with beautifully stylish and sophisticated menus – kudos to Samsung's designers.
On the subject of digital media playback, format support is superb – the list includes DivX HD, MP3, WMA, WMV, JPEG, AVCHD and MKV. From a Blu-ray perspective, the system does everything you'd expect, from outputting in film-friendly 1080/24p to decoding Dolby True HD and DTS HD Master Audio – although the 2.1 channel configuration obviously doesn't make the most of 5.1 or 7.1-channel soundtracks and there's no 3D support.
You will, however, find a decent array of sound modes to inject a bit of oomph into audio. The DSP button on the remote toggles through Smart Sound, MP3 Enhancer and Power Bass, while V-Sound attempts to replicate surround sound from two speakers.
During playback the Tools and Info displays are friendly and easy to understand, telling you everything you need to know about the disc. The Tools menu houses a choice of picture presets (Normal, Movie and Dynamic) as well as a User mode that lets you alter individual aspects of the picture. The setup menu offers some basic speaker settings that can be checked using a built-in test tone.
Samsung has taken a leaf out of Panasonic's book with the remote, which uses large spongy buttons clearly separated into distinct groups – the playback keys even glow in the dark. The menu controls are perfectly placed with frequently used keys close by.
Good review, thanks. Very interested in these new Samsung units, any ideas if this is wireless n or g, makes a difference for the DLNA streaming?
Been looking for a system to go with my samsung series 8 for ages now. I was tempted to take a look down the separates route. But with this decent enough package I may just settle. Plus separates is a bit pricey and not really worth it if you want 2.1
I've got BD-C5500 which is a stand alone Blu-ray player version of this one – all features are the same, but it only has wired internet connection (wireless via additional dongle) and no on-board memory (BD-C6500 has both). It's just over £100, so a decent separates 5.1 system may come down under £500. The player itself is superb (fantastic value too). Even faster loading times than reported here e.g. Apocalypto loads in ~10 seconds (it's not all that rosy: Avatar takes 2-3 min!). I tested the DLNA streaming with HD video 720p MKV, and no problem (BD player on wired, but laptop with source files was connected via 802.11g). So I suspect HT-C6200 would stream via "g" without issues.
There are however some irritating issues which may be shared with HT-C6200 . It's not possible to play music and browse other folders (other than the location of currently played file) – this applies to playback from all: Disc, USB and DLNA. Also the JPEGs are displayed with poor quality. I returned my first player because of the poor JPEGs and the second suffers from the same. All reported to Samsung, which hopefully will be resolved with the next firmware.
(I would be interested to know if HT-C6200 has the same problems)
On the plus side: the nearest competitor i.e. Sony BDP-S370 will not play from USB formatted in NTFS and DLNA is not yet operational – Samsung has no problems with those.
Hmm! I wonder if TR realised before they reviewed the HT-C6200 that its NOT available via Samsung UK? I enquired through a UK Samsung main dealer & they told me that it wasn't available via Samsung UK, so what gives? Are Pixmania "grey" importers? If its not available (or known) by Samsung UK, what sort of warranty is available??
Update to my last comment! It seems that the HT-C6200 is only available via Samsung in Belgium - I found it for 470 Euros, so it looks like Pixmania may be "grey importing" the unit! Given the well reported poor service provided by Pixmania (just google "Pixmania service") I'll wait for Samsung UK to stock this unit. Have to say, given the spec & £500 price it looks like a good piece of kit!
Yes we had it confirmed by Samsung that the system won't be available in the UK, but they told us that after we'd posted the review. Shame, as it's a brilliant little system
@ Danny P - I see today that Amazon UK are selling it @ £499.06 via SotelUK (a German company). Very tempted to buy as I cannot find anything anywhere that comes anywhere near to this piece of kit for £500!
Ok - I have bought one - paid £349 inc DHL delivery & VAT. Verdict: A screaming bargain. The unit is better than expected & at £350 it's a no brainer. As soon as I had set it up on my WiFi network, it automatically downloaded / installed latest firmware!! Avatar on Blu-Ray is simply awsome - sound is amazing. DVD playback is fantastic - Lord of the Rings on DVD was good before but with the HT-C6200's upscaling feature its awsome & the sound track simply fantastic! FM radio, LAN / WiFi connectivity, iPod dock all excellent. Without doubt the best £350 I have spent in a long time. A very happy bunny! :)

The legendary Spaniard Juan Rico (Reeko) aka Architectural on Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio? We're just as perplexed (no pun intended) as you are! But if this is welcoming a sudden change of direction for the label, then we're all for it. Expanding on previous efforts, Rico further explores the dubbier shades of hypnotic techno once again for the Heaven Can Wait EP. "Dream Driver" opening proceedings in a droney and trance inducing fashion, with main room/pre-peak time adrenaline in mind. It's a more subdued, deeper and minimal affair on the rather lush atmospherics of "Hidden" while on the flip we've got "Surreal Restaurant"; which is most likely inspired by grabbing a doner kebap after a long hight of clubbing in the German capital and musically it's fully of icy, cavernous delay drenched aesthetics drifting off into nice trails of reverb.

And now for a swatch! How beautiful is this?! The formulation is very true to other shimmery mineralize skinfinishes, the pigmentation is great, and the color is gorgeous. The shimmer particles can be a little loose (as with most msfs), but otherwise I'm very pleased with it. This suits me best as a blush, but if you have a deep complexion it may work as a highlighter!
MAC Mineralize Skinfinishes contain 7g/0.24 oz of product and retail for $29. Star Wonder is currently sold out on MAC's website, but when I bought this at a counter a few days ago there were plenty left. Also, be sure to check Nordstrom and Macy's online if you don't have a counter near you... they typically don't sell out as fast!
Did you get anything from Heavenly Creatures?
xx, Allison

Gator Women's Hoops Down Miss. St in SEC Opener
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Behind an impressive 23-point effort from Cassie Peoples and three other double-figure-scoring Gators, the University of Florida women's basketball team opened Southeastern Conference play with an 82-72 victory over Mississippi State on Thursday night at the Stephen C. O'Connell Center.
Jaterra Bonds scored 18 points, Christin Mercer added 12 and January Miller notched her first career double-double with 12 points and a career-high 10 boards.
After Mississippi State took its only lead of the game, 9-7, Florida answered with an 11-3 surge and never looked back. The run put UF up 18-12, lasted 2:41, saw four Gators score and included Bonds' 100th career three-pointer. The teams traded baskets for the following 6:23 before Carlie Needles sank two shots from the charity stripe to spark a 6-0 Gators spurt that lasted 1:44 and gave Florida its first double-digit lead of the game, 34-23. UF entered the locker room with a 40-30 advantage off of a last-second layup by Mercer.
Florida outscored Mississippi State off turnovers (17-6), with second chance points (13-4) and off the fast break (12-0) in the first half. The Gators shot a highly effective 46.9 percent from the field, compared to the Bulldogs' 38.7 percent.
The Gators led by double-digits for most of the second half, including a 17-point lead, 72-55, with 4:16 left on the clock. The Bulldogs looked to rally late with a 15-6 run that lasted 3:29 and brought the score to 78-70 with just 47 seconds remaining. However, the damage was already done and it was too much for Mississippi State to overcome. Florida connected on all four of its final-minute free throws en route to the team's seventh consecutive win.
UF used a very balanced offense throughout the game, connecting on 46.8 percent (29-62) of its shots, while holding Mississippi State to 34.3 percent (24-70). However, the Bulldogs connected on 33.3 percent (6-18) of their shots from behind the arc, compared to the Gators' 20 percent (2-10). Florida out-rebounded Mississippi State, 47-43, marking the sixth time Florida has won the rebounding battle this season.
Updated Records:
· Florida 11-3, 1-0 SEC
· Mississippi State 13-2, 0-1 SEC
Series Update:
· With the SEC-opening win, Florida now carries a 24-18 series advantage against Mississippi State and extended its winning streak against the Lady Bulldogs to eight
Numbers of Note:
· The Gators now boast a 9-0 record when leading at the half this season.
· Redshirt sophomore Cassie Peoples led both teams on the court tonight, putting up 23 points on Mississippi State. This is the second 20-point game and ninth double-digit effort of her career.
· With 18 points, senior Jaterra Bonds had her 12th double-figure scoring game of the season and the 68th of her career.
· Sophomore Christin Mercer tallied 12 points en route to her fourth double-digit game of the year and 10th of her career.
· Sophomore January Miller's 12 points were good enough for her 10th double-figure game of the season and 17th of her career. Miller's career-high 10 rebounds accounted for her first double-double and first double-digit rebounding effort of her career.
· Jaterra Bonds became the 11th different Gator in program history to connect on 100 career three-pointers
Streaks of Note:
· UF won its seventh consecutive game; last time Gators won seven straight was during the 2008-09 season
· MSU had its six-game winning streak snapped
· Cassie Peoples produced a double-figure scoring effort for the seventh straight game
· Jaterra Bonds started her 84th consecutive game; 97th overall start of career
· January Miller scored in her team-leading 43rd consecutive game
Quotes from the Court:
Florida Head Coach Amanda Butler
Opening Statement:
"I'm really proud of the way that we played. I liked the start to both halves, and that is very important to our team. For the most part we played with a lot of composure. I am sure there are a lot of things that we will discover when we go back and watch the film that we should have done a little cleaner or a little better with a higher level of intensity, but overall, we beat a very good team tonight. Winning the rebounding battle, I am really proud of that. Like I said, we showed a great deal of composure, which was one of our game goals."
On getting off to a good start in the SEC:
"It is huge. That is what I said to the team. I think the last three or four minutes of the game didn't feel like we wanted it to because we kept putting them on the free throw line and prolonging the game. I said guys, 'we need to get really excited. It is hard to win games in this league.' I don't care what the opponents name is on their jersey or where you are playing. You've got to take great pride whenever you beat another SEC opponent. It is fantastic momentum for us. We need to springboard and use that momentum because we have a great challenge on Sunday and a great opportunity ahead of us."
On containing Mississippi State's Martha Alwal:
"I think that her coach was disappointed as well because there were some moments when she wasn't in the game. It makes it easy to make the numbers look like that when your coach gets mad at you and puts you on the bench or whatever was going on with their team. She certainly is one of their really important cogs. It was also a game changer the fouls, (Kendra) Grant getting in foul trouble. It is something that we need to adjust, too. It is not an anomaly or something special. This is the way the game is going to be called; we've got to make the adjustments. I am really proud of the way we played her, no question."
On the play of January Miller:
"I thought that January showed tremendous fight in the way that she rebounded. We really needed that. You mentioned Alwal earlier, and when you have a player like that on the floor, you can't just expect the post players to handle their business. That is a tough matchup. You've got to get help from somewhere. I thought that Jan really shouldered a lot of that rebounding burden tonight. She did it in a very aggressive January way. She just went and got the ball. I think that all and all we've got to have more consistency in how we box out. But no question, she gave us a rebounding spark."
Florida Guard Cassie Peoples
On the guard play:
"For the guards, we just wanted to get things started on the defensive end. I think we did a good job of starting off. I think we started off with a steal. I think our defense set the tone for us. We did a really good job of pressuring the ball."
Florida Guard Jaterra Bonds
On Mississippi State's reputation for forcing turnovers:
"I didn't know that was the case, but we force a lot of turnovers, too. I know we've had games where we've forced over 30 turnovers. You've just got to stay composed and stay with your game plan. You can't get flustered with their pressure."
Mississippi State's Head Coach Vic Schaefer
On his thoughts on tonight's game:
"I thought we lost the game at the guard position. We certainly didn't get anything out of Martha (Alwal) inside, and I thought they did a great job neutralizing her, but their guards were really good and that's where their advantage was. (Cassie) Peoples and Jaterra (Bonds) were really good and then you've got to throw (January) Miller in there. Those kids, they go 15-of-20 for 41 so that's where they scored, at the one, two, and three and their four and five went one-for-four; you bring (Christin) Mercer out of the bench and she goes 6-for-12. We couldn't get over the hump; every time we'd have a chance to get it back under ten, we'd miss the one-and-one, we'd miss two shots and we had two possessions in a row where we wasted them and didn't get to score when we had it to ten.
"Again, young, immature, inexperienced basketball team on the road in the SEC, and we played absolutely awful and only lost by ten. Played them dead even in the second half and I don't know how we scored 42 points. I'm going to lose my mind if we give up 82 points every night; I don't like that as a defensive guy. But I was proud of some of our kids because I thought they really fought all night long and competed. Dominique (Dillingham), JJ (Jerica James); I thought the played well. Bree (Breanna Richardson) didn't play well but she competed. I'm proud of our team for fighting and for the most part, I thought we did have maybe one or two who were tired there at the end and didn't want anymore, but that's part of having an immature team."

These guys used to be "good boys" before they came to the Raw Fuck Club. Now, each one of them is unleashing his Inner Devil.
In this installment from Dark Alley Media's insanely popular Raw Fuck Club line, there are several great performers being inducted: Tate Ryder, Joey Rodriguez, Draven Torres, and Mike Dozer. They join fan-favorite RFC veterans: Antonio Biaggi, Colton Carbone, and of course, Owen and Brandon Hawk.
Colton Carbone treats club newbie Draven Torres like a human fuck doll, roughly fucking both of his holes and leaving his well-used asshole dripping with his cum.
Watching the Hawks team up on little Latin stud Joey Rodriguez for a double anal penetration is pure ecstasy, or as close as you can get without being there yourself. They breed this mega-fine muscle bottom so intensely that you might need to pace yourself to make it to the grand creampie finale – don't let your screen melt from all the excitement!
In scene three, Colton Carbone is back for more. This time he tops another RFC newcomer, Mike Dozer, who's a real power bottom. Mike slurps up Colton's rod and loves every second of the anal drilling that follows.
Antonio Biaggi welcomes Tate Ryder, previously a mainstream condom-only performer, and gives him a pounding with that famous uncut Latin cock.
The latest Raw Fuck Club members show us what they're truly made of and we can't get enough. This Dark Alley Media release is streaming exclusively on our VOD theater network.

DAKSHIN in Stamford proves that success can repeat itself. The restaurant, a new sibling of Coromandel, an excellent Indian restaurant in Darien, is living up to its elder's high standards in décor, friendly and polished service, and food.
The name Dakshin means south in Sanskrit, and the restaurant is named so because the owners and a good many of the dishes -- though not even half -- are from South India.
In fact, many regions of India are well represented with dishes from Kashmir, Bengal, New Delhi, Gujarat, the Northwest, Punjab, Goa, Madras and Kerala, among others.
One of my tastiest surprises was malai kofta, a Gujarati vegetarian dish that consisted of oval dumplings made of ground vegetables and cheese in a luscious cashew and almond cream sauce.Continue reading the main story
While the new restaurant has some of the same dishes as Coromandel, I like the idea that Dakshin has established its own identity. This was apparent in my first visit when I ordered dakshin din raat, a delicious starter consisting of tiny segments of a loose mix of vegetables centered with Indian white cheese in a fennel-spiked honey-tomato sauce. This is a variation of Coromandel's sham savera -- spinach cups in a similar sauce -- a favorite of mine for years.
I have rarely found appetizers to be the Indian cuisine's strong suit, but at Dakshin there are some terrific ones, such as adraki dingro (chunks of meaty Portobello mushrooms in a light batter mixed with ginger and tamarind, stir-fried and then tossed with sautéed tomatoes and onions). Also delicious were baigan burrani (sautéed eggplant slices topped with well-seasoned chick peas); Bombay kolbi (jumbo shrimp with curry leaves and mustard seeds in cream sauce); and kontani xinnae (squid rings in a batter similar to the one on the mushrooms, stir-fried with onions, garlic, green pepper).
Only one starter, agouti kebab, disappointed; the ground lamb kebabs had fine flavor but minuscule bone chips had inadvertently been ground in with the meat.
Among the South Indian specialties that were exceptionally well done were chemmeen pappas (prawns cooked perfectly in a tangy, well-spiced cream sauce) and aadu kari (a pungent lamb curry with shallots, garlic, ginger and curry leaves). Kozhi chettinad suited my taste buds to a ''T'' with chunks of chicken in a hot pepper curry sauce, heady with red chilis and mustard seeds. Travancore meen curry, a Kerala dish, combined halibut with a coconut curry sauce tempered by sour black tamarind, red onions and spices.
Our tandoor oven dishes came sizzling outside, moist within, just as they should. Notable were the deeply spiced and ash-edged tandoori chicken and safed mas (lamb chops in a yogurt blanket scented with nutmeg and ajwain (a cousin of caraway). Our garlic nan and plain nan (crisp, oily tandoor-hearth bread) couldn't have been better or earthier.
Even the many dishes at the lunch buffet tasted freshly made and were kept piping hot. The buffet, by the way, is a real bargain with nine or 10 main dishes, salad, a variety of chutneys, rice, several desserts and a serving of hot-from-the-tandoor oven chicken and nan, all for $10.95. (Seconds are encouraged.)
Servings -- appetizers, entrees and desserts -- are unusually generous. On two occasions, we had the rare experience of a waiter saying that we had ordered too much; he said the four of us could do with three entrees, instead of four, because of all the extras like rice, nan, raita and dal. (We were aware of over ordering, but wanted to sample as many dishes as possible.)
Most dishes at Dakshin are beautifully modulated, complex and deeply seasoned, but not too incendiary. Even the dishes marked ''medium spicy'' and ''very spicy" can be modified to your preference.
Another point: the side dishes also have verve -- thick, sour tamarind and spicy mint dipping sauces with their distinctive tangs; fluffy, first-rate basmati rice studded with green peas, crisp onion wisps, raisins and nuts, kept hot in a copper serving pot; and a thick-textured yellow lentil dal with real character.
Situated on a corner in downtown Stamford, Dakshin is a twinkling new gem. Long may it sparkle.
68 Broad Street, Stamford
ATMOSPHERE -- Indian in spirit, with a colorful carved screen on one wall, wood sculptures, hanging lanterns and walls painted in vibrant shades of rose, papaya and mango.
NOISE LEVEL -- Excellent for conversation, with well-spaced tables.
SERVICE -- Friendly and professional.
RECOMMENDED DISHES -- Lunch buffet, most appetizers, tandoor lamb chops, tandoori chicken, malai kofta, kozhi chettinad, chemmeen pappas, miraspakaya kodi, travancore meen curry, dal dakshin, raita, garlic nan, mango madness, mango ice cream, carrot halwi.

Esc and abs lights on and off with codes
Hoping someone can help with this. I have been getting the esc,abs,service 4 wheel drive lights lately. The brake pedal pulses as well. Had the codes pulled this morning. The front left abs sensor has gone bad-got that one. But some of the codes have me stumped. U0100,U0101 lost ECM and Tcm communication, any ideas on this? Also U140E, and B2202 these I can't find and have no idea what they are. The person at Advance Auto that pulled the codes also said the battery showed low-B2100. Could anyone offer some guidance on the U140E and B2202? Also the P0700 code popped up. Thanks for any help with these.
Re: Esc and abs lights on and off with codes
WK's have an infamous slew of electrical issues related to low battery voltages. If your battery is shite, I'd start by replacing it with a new one. It's quite possible that this fix could resolve the rest of your codes.
I am getting the exact same thing right now. But my code is P0571.
Re: Esc and abs lights on and off with codes
I'm going to replace the battery tonight and hope that resolves it. I looked at the abs sensor on the front wheel and it looks like a lot of fun to do. Looks like the front wheel,rotor and all have to come off. After the battery I will fill you in on the progress. Thanks for the help
Re: Esc and abs lights on and off with codes
Update-the lights have gone away for the most part. Still getting them once every couple days. Stutter in the brake pedal occasionally. To replace the abs sensor on the front, do the brakes have to be bled?

Download the PDF of the Full Case Study
Ranked 10th among North American refrigerated warehouse firms and in the top-15 worldwide, Cloverleaf Cold Storage, Inc. continued its aggressive program of expansion in the U.S. Southeast in 2011 with the acquisition of Imperial Freezer Services, a modern 3.5 million cubic foot facility in Central North Carolina that is oriented toward poultry, but which handles pork and beef as well.
The Company
Cloverleaf's history traces to 1934, when it originated in Sioux City, Iowa as Farmers Produce Company. It expanded into freezer services first in Mankato, MN in 1952 and soon, to a similar operation in Sioux City. Expansion and innovation have characterized the company ever since and today, it operates more than 63 million cubic feet of warehouse space -- an increase of approximately 50 percent between 2006 and 2011 -- most of it freezer/temperature controlled.
The company manages its sprawling warehouse complex with Accellos One Enterprise 3PL third party logistics management software, in place since 2004. It manages the business side of the corporation with a Microsoft Dynamics GP ERP solution that is seamlessly integrated with the Accellos software.
EDI Functionality
Some 60 percent of the company's transactions with customers are conducted via electronic document interchange, with both inbound and outbound documents translated automatically by the middleware. Cloverleaf can trigger EDI uniquely from any point in the workflow.
The rapid implementation of the Sanford site is an example of how the Cloverleaf technology team's process works. "Initially, we conduct interviews with the existing staff to learn how they've being doing things," Mastbergen says. "We go through a similar set of questions for each customer. Then, we create a conversion plan with this information."
The warehouses for the most part feature standard racking, specified primarily in relation to its intended use: for example, to store raw protein products versus the market-ready products.
