So, one of the reasons Panasonic touts plasma at this size is that it's supposed to be more energy efficient than LCD.
How does this claim stack up?
Hi,I have had a 42px70 since jan07 and although it is not full hd I have to agree with john that when running bluray or my tosh hd player( yes I bought jusy b4 tosh dropped the bomb shell)the picture is fantastic also the black level is really good.But looking at the x10 range that is about to end I did think Panasonic had taken a step back in picture quality,does anybody else agree.
To John Archer: You reviewed both TX-P37X20 & TH-37PX80, are you really saying Image Quality of the PX80 is better? PX80 > 9/10 vs X20 8/10..
I'm wondering since my defective PX80 is now in the process of being replaced by Panasonic for an X20. So, should I press them for a better deal? Or will I be fine? If the IQ is equal to the PX80's I'll be very happy. The TV is for the bedroom btw, where it's usually pretty dark.
Having bought the TX-P37X20B and played with it for the last few days...I'm impressed. I tend to agree with the main review but I would rate the sound 9 out of 10. The grahic equalizer, lacking on the previous plasma models makes a huge difference. There's plenty of bass, treble and other tone control. I run the surround sound mode with just the standard set speakers. It's brilliant and out classes many other expensive sets that I have been viewing and trying. The picture is stunning on Virgin Media cable SD mode, and HD is just superb! Freview is fine too. Everything about the set is easy to use with huge menu's to satify any setup demands you may have. In other words you can tweak till your hearts content and the results will be just what you want. Straight out of the box mine was setup really well by the factory. I've made almost no changes. Prior to buying this set I wanted a high end LCD full HD set...and I'm so glad I didn't get one. THIS IS MUCH BETTER FOR NEARLY EVERYONE'S NEEDS. And I'm fussy as hell!
Sorry...forgot to mention power useage and viewing angles in my brief review above. Can only say it uses less power than my old 32" Philips CRT widescreen which was rated at 205w if my memory serves me correctly. I haven't measured the actual power throughput, but the book says average 'power on' use for the TX-P37X20B is 115watt...maximum rated power use 190w. I suspect this will in reality be somewhere inbetween depending on how you set the TV up and where and how it's used ie: are the power saving features switched on, is CATS switched on (dims screen down as the room gets darker to avoid eye strain, using less power, and is incidentally a very good feature we have found) etc etc. The other point I must mention is the fabulour 'viewing angle free' design. Being a plasm, you can watch this set comfortably from any angle you wish without any noticeable loss of picture quality at all. NO LCD CAN MATCH IT! We have found it to be a terrific asset as my LG LCD set cannot be watched from anywhere but the direct frontal view to get the HD quality. It's rubbish from anywhere else (I'm not rubbishing LG sets...all makes of LCD are like that with just some a little better than others). Plasma's are brilliant and with much better screen life too than LCD. Hope this is helpful.
I was so disappointed to see this luke-warm review after the more enthusiastic review for the X10. Desperate to upgrade from Daewoo DUB2850 CRT (DTV) in time for the World Cup, but wary of LCD quality within my budget, I've been looking out for a bargain plasma to give me a STANDARD DEFINITION picture in which I can read the numbers on our boys' shirts and which is not garishly aimed at the gaming market. Panasonic have already brought out models with only one SCART socket *horror*.
Starfleet, you've encouraged me - in your opinion would the SD Freeview picture on this be a significant step up from medium-quality CRT? (I'm taking your word for it that I wouldn't need to buy a sound system to add on!) And can .avi movies be converted to play on the SD card?
clemenzina, sorry for a late reply...haven't been about. Don't know if this is any help now but here goes. I found the SD picture on my new Plasma TX-P37X20B to be significantly better than my 32" CRT Philips set whether watching Freeview or Virgin Media Cable. It's also better than my LG Full HD LCD set in SD or Full HD. Quite a suprise. So I don't think the lower resolution on the Panny set is very significant at all and the original reviewers comment about this aspect is correct...it depends on the quality of the panel and the software driving it rather than just the screen res. It's great. In fact the picture on my Plasma set has just been getting better and better and it's not my imagination either. Get one!!
I have just purchased this TV, unfortunatly I dont understand any of the jargon that has been written on the reviews, but I must say its a very nice TV, Picture is great, not to pleased with the sound as speakers are at the back, but with my little surround system has solved that problem. As this is now a discontinud line I got this Tv at a fantastic price.
If any body can help me tweak this TV in laymans terms please get in touch .

Suncorp model of success
Page Tools
Suncorp-Metway chief executive John Mulcahy believes the other banks have got it wrong. He spent all of yesterday's three-hour strategy briefing telling analysts that Suncorp's business model - combining banking, general insurance and wealth management under one roof - would help Suncorp outperform competitors over the next five years.
His rationale is that Suncorp is best placed to get the most out of its customer base because it has expertise across all three businesses.
While the other chief executives - including St George Bank's Gail Kelly - are yet to be convinced, fund managers are starting to take Mr Mulcahy seriously.
"They have a lot of focus on cross-selling and there seems to be clear opportunities, for example, selling insurance to their small business banking customers," Deutsche Asset Management portfolio manager Nick Vidale said.
Suncorp confirmed its full- year profit guidance yesterday, predicting a 15-20 per cent in crease in pre-tax earnings.
The company also expects to report an insurance margin above 14 per cent and a 10 per cent increase in wealth management earnings.
Analysts believe Suncorp is being conservative.
"It's hard to see how they won't come in above that," Mr Vidale said.
Suncorp shares have risen strongly in the past year amid speculation the company will be involved in mergers and acquisitions.
The most talked-about potential deals include a tie-up with Promina or St George. But Mr Mulcahy said the company was not in any merger talks.
However, the company has a small team that researches every possible opportunity.
For example, a Zurich executive was recently reported as saying Australia was not a core market, and Mr Mulcahy said his team had researched this opportunity.
"I think the market is quite competitive and I would anticipate that . . . someone is going to underperform," he said after yesterday's briefing.
Suncorp-Metway shares fell 27 ¢ to $19.67 yesterday.

it is really ur bad luck when u live next to dis kind of smelly and inconsiderate ahneh.......LOL
STOMPer Leng Kern cannot tolerate this inconsiderate neighbour who has transformed the HDB corridor into his personal space by grinding and preparing food in the open.
The STOMPer elaborated:
"These pictures were taken at Block 961, Jurong West Street 92.
"The design of this particular flat is unique in the sense that there are only two units on the 14th floor.
"The lift stops at the 13th floor.
"Due to this design, a huge corridor space is available to the two units.
"The resident of unit #14-196 has taken advantage of the space by carrying out his business of grinding ingredients like chilli paste, flour, etc, and using heavy machinery which runs for the entire day.
"This kind of activity is normally only done at the factories.
"This resident also placed furniture, chairs, bicycle, pails of water, metal cabinets, huge machine for grinding and more, without any consideration for his immediate neighbour.
"HDB or the TC should immediately visit this unit and advise the resident accordingly.
"Besides the noise generated from the grinding machine, there is the risk of the flour or chilli paste being contaminated as the grinding is carried out in the open.
"The food is definitely not just for personal consumption as the preparation goes on for the entire day.
"This inconsiderate neighbour should be dealt accordingly by the authorities concerned."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 27/3/2014 (1187 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Even in the midst of the intensity of the WHL playoffs, there are moments when we are reminded that hockey is, after all, just a game.
Wednesday night was one of those moments.
First star Jayce Hawryluk quickly went from celebrating his brilliant hat-trick performance in the Brandon Wheat Kings' 5-4 comeback victory over the Regina Pats to being taken to the hospital after suddenly feeling light-headed and short of breath — warning signs to be taken seriously given the recent collapse of Dallas Stars forward Rich Peverley.
The Wheat Kings staff immediately called for help and Hawryluk was quickly in the capable hands of the team doctor and taken to hospital for further treatment, tests and overnight observation.
The good news Thursday was that the 18-year-old forward from Roblin was resting comfortably and the array of tests had not uncovered any "red flags" according to Wheat Kings head coach/general manager Kelly McCrimmon.
The welcome news came as a huge relief for teammates and staff, many of whom had been shaken by the incident.
A number of players were in contact with their teammate Thursday, with the news of his improving condition giving them comfort as they returned to the ice to prepare for tonight's Game 4 at Westman Place looking to complete a first-round sweep of the Pats.
In a small way, hockey has helped the Wheat Kings refocus and start to put the memory of Wednesday night's scare behind them. Getting their teammate back in the room at some point, when he is fully cleared to return, will help complete that process.
For now, though, it's a chance to take a minute to put the game in perspective. Yes, the Wheat Kings are a multi-million dollar business helping develop some world-class hockey players and building the foundation for future professional careers.
But on Wednesday night what mattered most was Hawryluk's health, a gentle reminder that we should never take our own for granted.

A late-night flight vanishes over the sea. Initial search crews come up empty. A couple hundred families fall into a purgatorial grief – knowing their loved one is gone, but not knowing where or how.
Just as it is now with Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, it was five years ago when Air France Flight 447 from Rio to Paris dropped from the sky.
With so many parallels between the disappearances, one Guelph family is reliving the grief they first experienced on June 1, 2009, when they learned their son and brother, 49-year-old Brad Clemes, was the sole Canadian on board that flight from Rio.
"Everyone in our family saw the news and started sending e-mails back and forth," said Blake Clemes, one of Brad's brothers, of the Malaysia Airlines jet that went missing early Saturday with 239 people, including two Canadians, on board. "It brought back all the memories. We understand exactly what all those families are going through right now."
Brad Clemes boarded the Air France flight along with 227 others around 7 p.m. on May 31. News of the plane's disappearance began to emerge around 11 a.m. the next day. There were no witnesses, no mayday calls, not even a blip on a radar – a disaster unprecedented in the annals of modern passenger aviation.
Most in the Clemes family assumed the worst immediately. "I personally realized it was all over as soon as I heard," said another brother, John Clemes, who now lives in London. "At that stage, it had been 10 or 11 hours since the plane vanished. In this age, a plane of that size can't vanish for that long without any cellphone calls or radio calls or radar signals coming out. I didn't have any hope."
Accepting his brother's fate didn't make it any easier.
"With the Malaysia Airlines tragedy, it's probably the same for the families," he said. "You have lost a loved one in a very brutal manner but you have no idea of why, how or where it even happened. That just adds to the pain and difficulty."
Five days would pass before searchers found any bodies. By June 26, with 50 bodies recovered, the Brazilian military cancelled its search. Another 178 passengers, including Mr. Clemes, remained unaccounted for. Wild theories swirled about what brought down the plane.
"There were all kinds of scenarios proposed and you start to imagine each one in your head, like an explosion in mid-air. The uncertainty really aggravates it," said John Clemes.
Over the ensuing years, John headed up an association for the victims' families and lobbied successfully to keep the crash investigation going, forcing the authorities to continue searching for the plane and its elusive black boxes. In the spring of 2011, that search turned up a large part of the fuselage. The body of Mr. Clemes was recovered that May.
"That helped immensely," said Blake. "They brought his body up. We were able to have a family-only service. There was some closure."
The family established a scholarship and a memorial golf tournament to honour the memory of a family member whose death they'll never get past.
"I think of him every day," said Blake. "Honestly, we find ourselves crying a couple days a week still. Any time you hear of a car accident or a tragedy of any kind, it gets you thinking of him. That memory never goes away. That sadness never goes away. You have to feel for people going through it now."Report Typo/Error

Love that look on Zoey's face! Great pictures of that little bandit, too.
Good job Zoey! :)
OMG, how cute is that little fella? Looks like zoey takes her job very seriously
Great photos. What are you shooting with?
Thanks everybody!
DobbyDad- I shoot with a Nikon D7000 and had my Tamron 70-300 VC on at the time. Shot him at 300MM. Feel free to PM me about anything photoG related!
Super cute!!!:)
I had a wolf hybrid that tree'd a coon once. I noticed her looking up the tree in the morning, looked up and saw the coon. I didn't have time to deal with it, so I went to work. When I got home she was still looking up at the tree. That coon must have been tired. I put her in the garage and the coon took about 20 minutes to come down. When he landed, he hit the ground running. I have pictures of the event, but I have no idea which computer they are on. I had them in a nice gallery on the myspace, but you know how that went..

My Ride: 2001 BMW 330d IIIM
Intermittend starting problems when (luke) warm - SOLVED
I have had intermittent starting problems that drove me crazy. When the engine was LUKE WARM it was not possible to start. That is: turn key, starting motor comes on, engine does not fire (or maybe fires once or twice and then dies).
This typically happened after parking for 1-2 hours. Cold engine always started perfectly (early morning, also at -10 degrees easy start), and warm engine starting fine as well. Only LUKE WARM had this problem and usually when I was in a hurry.
Waiting until the engined cooled down always solved the problem.
Battery in perfect condition, checked fuel pump: ok (including its fuse ok).
The car is a 330d, IIIM, diesel, European model (E46 with the M57 engine).
To analyze what was happening I bought an OBD2 to USB cable and installed the software to readout the fault codes. There it was: each time the engine did not start there was an error on the CAM sensor!
Mounting a new CAM sensor is really easy. It is located on the engine block close to the last fuel injection valve (so closest to the front of the car). Just unmount the engine cover and there it is. Disconnect cable, unscrew 1 screw, remove and mount a new sensor. (Price around 50-100 Euros.) Use a new o-ring. My sensor came with a new o-ring included.
E voilà. Problem solved!
I wanted to share this experience on the forum since others might have similar issues, and when reading through previous posts I noticed that there is a lot of confusion about possible causes. My feeling is that this typical pattern of reproducible starting problems with a luke warm engine must be related to a malfunction of the sensor in a specific temperature range. Hence it is unlikely that this is caused by failure of the fuel pump or other components.
At least in my case mounting a new CAM sensor solved the problem.
Good luck to all.
ps. I believe that the M57 diesel engine has only one CAM sensor (I could only find the one described above), while other BMW petrol engines have two (one for each CAM shaft in that case?). In that case I assume that there can be a similar issue with either one of the two sensors.

I saw this on my feed today on Tiny Cartridge (post here!) and it definitely made me smile. Quote: "My Mom helping me through a hard level in Super Mario Land on the day Nintendo Gameboy was released." Cute!

Brett Helzer, the new Head Brewer at the Jasper Ridge Brewery, is settling nicely into his job after taking over brewing operations at the popular restaurant and brewpub. Brett has been hard at work brewing a variety of craft beers new to the establishment, as well as several old favorites.
A Grand Rapids native, Brett attended college at Michigan Technological University in Houghton where he received a degree in engineering. After returning to Grand Rapids, Brett took up home brewing in his spare time as a hobby. "I didn't expect to like home brewing as much as I did" Brett said. "I never really thought it would become a passion of mine." But he soon found himself immersed in the art of home brewing. After several years of honing his skills he entered a home brewing competition in Grand Rapids where he took home a silver medal for his brown ale. Brett says "this was a turning point, taking brewing from a hobby into a full time career." Four years after he began home brewing Brett landed a job at a small craft brewery, Harmony Brewing Company, where he learned how to commercially brew and the ins and outs of the craft beer industry. Eight months later, Brett applied for the open brewer position at the Jasper Ridge Brewery and soon after was hired as Head Brewer.
In Brett's short time at the Jasper Ridge Brewery he has brewed an amber rye, stout, pale ale, IPA, several styles of wheat beer, and a brown, which is in fact very similar to his home brew he won the silver medal for in Grand Rapids. Brett's newest brew, 'Rye'd the Tiger' is "An American amber ale with a generous portion of rye malt thrown in." Brett is happy to say his 'Rye'd the Tiger' has "gotten a really good reception" from the customers and is a current favorite at the brewery.
As for the future of brewing at Jasper Ridge Brewery, Brett is eager to share his ideas and vision for what we can expect on tap from him, stating, "I have a lot of interesting things in mind that I think people in the area will be receptive to." His long-term goals include an Imperial IPA and Imperial Stout, but for the immediate future Brett intends to create an Octoberfest beer, a Kolsch and a traditional Finnish style beer called a "Sahti." Brett describes it as "an interesting amber beer that uses a lot of juniper branches and berries."
When not in the brew house working on his self described "labor of love", Brett can be found behind the bar where he enjoys conversing with the customers and receiving feedback on his brews. "The highest compliment I can get as a brewer, better than medals or awards, is 'can I get another'; it means I have something people enjoy." Brett says his "goal is to get people out of their comfort zone and try something different." If Brett's impressive track record thus far is any indication, the craft beer future at the Jasper Ridge Brewery will without a doubt be bursting with unique flavor, excitement, and innovation.
The Jasper Ridge Brewery is located in Ishpeming's Country Village and is open for lunch and dinner daily at 11am, with happy hour 3:30-6pm, Monday –Friday. Check them out at www.facebook.com/JasperRidgeBrewery or www.jasperridgebrewery.com
Their current tap beer list includes, Rye'd the Tiger, JRB Nitro Stout, JRB Upside Down Brown, Ropes Golden Wheat, Blastin' Blueberry Wheat, JRB Pale Ale, and JRB IPA. Growlers are available to go anytime.

Although the Princess of Wales has undergone a revamp by Mitchells & Butlers, turning it into a modern bar bright with exotic beer taps, the pub hasn't forgotten its history. In 1871, England players gathered here before the first ever international rugby union match, an event commemorated with a modest alcove of mementoes.
Elsewhere, though, the huge main bar, a corridor of tables and various back areas done out in pub-cum-lounge-bar style have been given over to a young clientele sipping selections from a global beer range (Doom Bar, Meantime Stout, Früli, Kozel) to a student-rock soundtrack.
Dishes such as a large 21-day-aged rib-eye steak or Cotswolds lamb leg steak with lentils and peppers can also be enjoyed on the front terrace, in the conservatory or in the back garden.

We to move seats three times as pub was so noisy thanks the loud music
Filthy and full of local alcoholics. The police has been called more than once in response to physical altercations. I don't like it.
I bloody love my local pub! Good food that's often updated, and a relaxed comfy atmosphere are the highlights. Looking forward to the summer when patrons spill out onto the heath for a drink in the sun.
My favourite place for outdoors drinks, summer or fireworks night it's always the meeting place, my go to pub.
Our absolutely favourite for family Sunday lunch. Great countryside atmosphere as they accept dogs, suddenly you feel like you are somewhere in Kent... Sometimes when I am stressed I go on my own as well, no prob for a girl by herself, I feel safe and relaxed. Very very good also when it is nice and you can buy a pint and sit out on the grass so admire the sunset - aahhhh! Fabulous.
A packed house at 12.30 on a Sunday afternoon, the service was good and the food excellent. Large portions of good quality food and excellent desserts. Bit worried about the barman who thought port went into a bloody Mary but otherwise the service was quick and friendly.
Was a fab pub 5 years ago then went downhill with poor management. Believe there was a new manager 6 months ago and it has become amazing again - both bars are open again, food is great and staff seem to actually care again about the customer. Definately worth a visit again
Was a favourite, now a pub I avoid at all costs. The Sunday nut roast, may be worth a visit again in the future, only if they managed to serve it to me with a smile and within an hour! For some bizarre reason, the current manager still does not realise, when it's a hot day,it's going to get busy, so get more staff. The same issue that this place has had for years, just nev ever corrected. Totallly insane as I know for sure, I will not visit again and nor will some of my other local friends. Staff are a little blunt and food is pretty dire every time we have ordered recently, really disappointing. The best thing is location, the worst thing, everything else about this pub.

We're going to start this article off with the picture that sparked this situation.
If you haven't figured it out, the child is playing a video game with a controller similar to those of Sony's PlayStation brand. Why is this such an issue? The company who was in charge of the ad, The Gate, did not seek permission from the gaming giant in order to utilize the obvious likeness of its controller.
The Change4Life ad campaign has been started by the British government in order to bring attention to the negative effects of a sedentary lifestyle. The image, which depicts a young child playing video games, gives off the impression that playing video games instead of going outside may lead to an early death. A handful of other prominent companies in the gaming industry have already spoken out against this ad, including Sega, Atari, Future Publishing, TIGA, ELSPA and MCV.
It's not set in stone yet whether or not SCEE plans on going through with legal action against either The Gate or potentially the British government itself, but the image is definitely provocative from a gamer's point of view. That's not to say we don't value exercise -- we love our sports and physical activities as much as everyone else -- but gaming can certainly be part of a healthy lifestyle.
We'll be sure to watch closely as this develops.

It's that time of year again -- and I'm not talking about politics!
In the meantime, have you bought your tickets for Red State Blues yet? From the release:
In the heart of the reddest of the red states there is a grassroots movement hard at work to turn Texas blue. All that energy will have an outlet on Election Eve, spoken in the language Austinites know best: Music.
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings will be joined by Brownout and Austin music legend James McMurtry in an historic performance to ring a new era in politics; in the state George Bush calls home. The concert will be held at the newly renovated Austin Music Hall and benefits The Travis County Democratic Party and The SIMS Foundation.
During this one night event, local and national celebrities will rub elbows with grassroots activists and others energized by the election. "In the Live Music Capitol of the World, there is only one way to commemorate the beginning of a new political era: with a big party and lots of great music. I know Clifford (Antone) is smiling on from heaven," adds Kay Gourley, co-producer of the event. Antone's signature club was the venue for the first Red State Blues concert in 2004.
The concert will start at 7:30 p.m., doors open at 7 p.m. General Admission price is $32/ticket and can be purchased at http://www.gettix.net/concert/?event_id=2777.
There will be a special reception before the show with a performance by Paris 49 and special guest Chrysta Bell. The $82/person price of the pre-concert reception includes admission to the concert, appetizers and drink tickets.

Race & Taxes: My Closing Argument
But Uncle Billy grew up in Mississippi, and there he has stayed – in a place and a mindset where it's acceptable to use the 'N' word among your friends. My aunt, a decorator and collector, makes frequent trips to a community they refer to as Black Town to purchase vivid pottery pieces hand-crafted by African Americans. A few years ago I was coming back from a pottery pilgrimage to Black Town when we passed a sign saying, "You are now leaving Merigold." I felt shamefully ignorant for never questioning the town's derogatory name. I had been handed that ignorance and accepted it. I had never paid close enough attention to the signs passing me by.
Racial ignorance, or racism itself, is something that I have come to understand a bit more. You inherit it, you acclimate yourself to it and you let it mold you to not affect your relationships with the people around you; the people like you. There are thousands of people in this country like my uncle, and they will go to the polls on November 4th with this ignorance settled deep in their souls. They've never been to Merigold, only Black Town. This is not an excuse for racism by any means, but a reason for their ignorance.
But there is another type of societal ignorance that is more insipid and below the surface. Because it carries none of the stigma of race and color, it is more acceptable – sometimes laughable – with the right crowd. The epitome of this ignorance came to me during the summer of 2004 when I was at a horse show. I found myself arguing with one of our wealthiest clients about politics. I used to incite conversations with her on all sorts of voodoo topics: religion, homosexuality and, being an election year, politics. An evangelical Christian, my client had invested a nearly equivalent amount of money in her three childrens' private school education as she had in her one daughter's equine pursuits. I remember the conversation dwindling down to her final statement: "Rachel, at the end of the day, I'm just going to vote based on my taxes."
As a 20 year old getting by on about $30,000 a year at the time, I remember being horrified. It was my first confrontation with someone concerned about taxes. With all that was going on – the war, the recently reported Abu Grhaib abuse, George Tenet's resignation – she was concerned about taxes?
By the end of November 4th, that is what this election will be all about. Will there be those same people like my former client going out to vote based on their taxes, reelecting a regime that will dangle an IRS carrot in their left hand while orchestrating a false war with their other? Or will there be enough people stirred up by volunteers and Obama's inspiring rhetoric to drag themselves out of their nearly destitute daily lives to vote for a candidate who promises to act in the middle class's best interest? I'd like to have faith in the latter, but I'm more acutely aware of the first.
And so my closing argument, to those Republicans who tell me they won't end up voting for someone, "just voting against someone else," is this: You may not be racist, but should you choose to cast your vote based on something as ultimately unimportant as your personal finances, then you ought to do a little soul-searching. Because voting based on your bottom line, and whether you can buy a new plasma screen with that extra $600 you'll get back from the government, is just as despicable as voting against someone because of the color of their skin. You'll never know you are in Merigold if you only carry the spoils of Black Town.
And, yeah, I'm talking to you.

On Voting Early in a Late Market
Austinites who haven't yet done their civic duty should consider early voting at the Fiesta Market at 38th Street/I-35. There's no better way to renew one's faith in the virtues of the melting pot that is our country than to run the Fiesta entryway gauntlet of Andean panpipes, Mexican imports, helados, and general world market atmosphere en route to casting one's vote in this election.
Particularly in light of the last-minute flare-up of b.s. surrounding who is and isn't "pro-American," Fiesta's polyglot customer base and bustling vitality are nothing less than restorative. At Fiesta, moms and daughters in headscarves, men in cowboy boots, women in saris, and whole generations of immigrant families are pushing carts through aisles that are little microcosms of international cuisine. Here, food is the battleground, not politics or religion. As far as I know, no one has come to blows over mangos at 3 for a dollar. In fact, given its status as a staple of Hispanic, Asian, and Indian cooking, the mango has a heftier international portfolio than Sarah Palin and might well qualify as a U.N. diplomat in a potential McCain administration.
Wedged in between the customer courtesy desk and a steam table loaded with chorizo sausage is the early voting station. Feeling giddy, I handed over my registration card saying, "I feel REALLy good about this one. Bring it on!" The 80-ish, silver-haired volunteer was not having any of that. She was irritable and short with me. Perhaps she was just tired after a long day of explaining to citizens that the the electronic voting machine "is NOT a touch screen; you have to TURN the wheel."
Or maybe, in the midst of the cultural diversity swirling around her, this woman felt outnumbered, disoriented, and threatened. It's possible she realized that, like the late-season peaches moldering on a nearby counter, her party had passed its sell-by date quite a while ago and was drawing only flies, and not many of them at that.

An Open Letter to Ted Stevens
This is coming to you from a series of tubes. I have a question: Now that you are a convicted felon, can you vote for yourself?
Hm. Hope you voted early.
P.S. Maybe now that you don't have a campaign to bother with, you should come down to Austin on Election Eve and drink away your sorrows with us at Red State Blues next Monday.

Kleinschmidt Steals Photo for Smear Campaign
Imagine my surprise yesterday when I received a scanned copy of an attack ad against Donnie Dippel, featuring cropped-for-con artist version of my own copyrighted photo, showing only Donnie Dippel posing with my plates -- with no photo credits or permission from me.
When my four tires got slashed a month ago, I was irritated with having to pay a $500 deductible but felt as though my plates were still something to be proud of and that the slashing was almost a badge of honor. Since then, I have tried to be more vigilant when I'm walking in my apartment parking lot, particularly at night -- not necessarily scared, but more aware.
But I find this attack ad on two candidates whom I have met and admire -- Barack Obama and Donnie Dippel -- to be not only an illegal use of my photo but the most deceptive type of campaign tactics that I have personally been dealt from Republicans. Dippel's opponent, Tim Kleinschmidt, is an attorney who has evidently decided that the copyright laws do not apply to him. Texans have had enough immorality and above-the-law politicians in the Texas House to be electing someone who chooses to be deceitful before he even wins the election. Kleinschmidt claims that he doesn't support one of the most immoral Texas House leaders, Tom Craddick, and yet the Craddick cookie-jar "Stars Over Texas PAC" has given Kleinschmidt's campaign $25,000. What's more, Kleinschmidt's own Republican base is having second thoughts about Craddick. Republican committeeman Mark McCaig wrote a guest column in the Statesman yesterday calling for Craddick to step down as Speaker, citing Craddick's "ethical cloud" as having "cast a shadow" over Craddick's Republican leadership in the Texas House.
This election has come down to baseless Republicans like Tim Kleinschmidt using my personal property for their high-gloss smear campaigns. It's a testament to Donnie Dippel's hardworking, honest practices that the worst thing Kleinschmidt can think of is to tie him to Barack Obama, who leads by double-digits across the polls. I suppose Kleinschmidt doesn't want anyone who is considering voting for Obama to vote for him. Nevertheless, I believe in my volunteer efforts for these Democrats -- not because they are Democrats but because they are honest, intelligent and have a sincere desire to change the way our country works -- should not be slandered in a political ad. And while Kleinschmidt may be proud of himself from stealing from a local progressive blogger (who eats BBQ at Southside and used to trailer her horses to the Elgin Veterinary Clinic for their check-ups) he's clearly ignorant or unsympathetic to the fact that this kind of campaigning leads to the violence that I experienced when my tires were slashed.
My direct statement to Mr. Kleinschmidt, if I ever saw him out in the district, would be this: It is reprehensible that you have chosen to steal my volunteering experience to manipulate it for your negative ads. But more vile, and what is ultimately more important, is the moral code you have that would allow you to do that.

The Killer V's.
Texas has a long history of breaking quorum to influence change. In 1979, the original "Killer Bees" were State Senators who went into hiding to prevent a presidential primary bill from being passed. More recently, in 2003, Texas Democrats faced down a Delay-backed redistricting bill, which prompted House members, later known as the "Killer D's," to leave the Lone Star state for Ardmore, Oklahoma and eleven State Senators fleeing in jets to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Texas Democrats are now being asked by the Obama campaign to help in crucial battleground states, a plan that somewhat infuriates local campaigns scrounging for down-ballot volunteers. In signing up for the "Road Trip for Change," a bus trip from Austin to Albuquerque organized by local Texans for Obama, I found that the convenience of getting involved was one of the major appeals -- everything was arranged, and all I needed to do was show up with my $50 check.
My initial thought upon boarding the Obama "Road Trip for Change" bus was We're going to drive all the way to New Mexico in this? Not exactly business class, the Bejucos bus seemed to have skimped a bit on leg room and arm rests. Nevertheless, the hodge podge group of about fifty I was assigned to -- known as the Blue Team -- climbed aboard cautiously, placing their pillows and blankets carefully around themselves, looking crisp and fresh and ready for adventure.
Our driver climbed aboard, with the well-heeled trucker gut and squinty eyes from years of driving trucks. He had been a trucker, he told one of my busmates, but after having several strokes, he had to leave the union. He was also diabetic, which made his penchant for donuts and coffee each morning a bit confounding.
"The bathroom," Jerry announced, "is like an outhouse. So don't use it unless it's an emergency. An' if you do have to use it, put the lid down. That'll help keep the smell down for the people in the back."
Five rows from the back of the bus, I observed those around me looking uncomfortably at one another. To my left, I later learned, I had Kate, a New York transplant; and Jo, a retired grandmother of four ("with one on the way!") knitting furiously when she wasn't typing on her laptop; and Anne, a vegetarian lawyer who liked to stay up late. In front of me were Mike and Julian, a gay couple who wisely brought a bottle of wetwipes. As Jerry finished his speech about the bathroom etiquette, Mike piped up "Hey Jerry, who are you going to vote for?"
Jerry made a face and said "Let's just not get into that."
The rest of the trip consisted of countless lines: lines to get off the bus, lines to get into the one ladies' restroom in Sonora, Texas, lines to get on the bus, lines to check in at the hotel, lines at McDonald's. But despite the tedium, there was no denying that we were supporters aligned. There was always something to listen to, a point of view that hadn't been considered or a nugget of breaking Obama campaign news to lift our morale.
Walking through the neighborhoods of Albuquerque, I found that most of the doors I knocked on were either enthusiastically Democratic or apologetically Republican. One woman, a Republican from Texas, followed me all the way from her porch to the street talking to me about why she had never voted for a Democrat other than Pete Laney.
To call the trip inspiring doesn't do it justice, and objective words fail me. We knocked on 6000 doors in less than 48 hours, and covered turf that spanned across the city. By the time the sun was setting on the mountains as we left Albuquerque yesterday, I felt what Katharine Lee Bates must have felt when she was composing "America the Beautiful." The brotherhood was inescapable, ensconced in the glow of the purple mountain majesties.
As for Jerry, he delivered a busload of pushy Democrats safely back to Austin early this morning. I went to say goodbye to him, and in the half-asleep euphoria I was in, asked him if we'd changed his mind. Jerry smiled and said "You got me thinking about it."
"Thinking about it? What's left to think about?"
Jerry nodded and said "Alright."
"It's not alright until we shake!" I said, and we shook hands.
I don't know where an old truck driver with low blood sugar fits in on Gallup polls, but I do know where Democrats can make a difference. It's in their critical mass; their willingness to displace themselves and sleep on top of one another; their lack of showers but surplus of goodwill. Lobbyists can't raise that kind of value, nor can ActBlue. No amount of mail pieces or media buys would have ever convinced Jerry to cast his vote for Obama.
But I like to think that the Killer V's -- that's V for Volunteers -- did.

I have packed ear plugs, a bottle of tequila and all of my tolerance for saturating myself in a social situation.
Bt-dubs, I stumbled across comedy BINGO night (or they stumbled across me, I'm not really sure what happened) at Mother Eagan's tonight. Trivia People, are you tired of having your ass kicked by the stupid Chewbacca Position team? Tired of having to yell "SHHOOOES!" over an overzealous teammate's answer? Tired of Mayor Wynn stealing the limelight and embarrassing you in front of your out-of-town guests? Well, my friends, I have one word for you: B-I-N-G-O. Far superior and way more fun. Thursday nights at 8 PM. Who's with me? Oh and for you nerd supremes, there's still an element of trivia -- the free space is a trivia question that you have to get correct.
If they had someone playing Billy Joel on a piano, I think my life might make sense again.

CD10: Congrats to LJD!
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Tuesday added Larry Joe Doherty to its "Red to Blue" program. Doherty earned a spot in the competitive program by establishing significant local support and skillfully showing voters that he stands for change and will represent new priorities.
"Larry Joe Doherty is running a solid campaign and is committed to making things easier for middle class families in their districts," said DCCC Chairman Rep. Chris Van Hollen. "With less than 21 days to make his case for change to voters, the Red to Blue program will give Larry Joe the financial and structural edge to be even more competitive in November."
I still have a steak riding on LJD winning by 8 points, so this is especially good news for me. And because I think LJD is going to be a great Congressman.
In related news, I am going on a bus to New Mexico to canvass for Obama this weekend. Discuss whether I will live to regret that in the comments section. One person, when I told them of my plan, said "It's like when you decided to sleep in a cardboard box for a night on your birthday!"

Midnight at the Corner of South Lamar & Change.
"No, I have a job." A Tahoe approached and I shook my sign at it as it whipped past, urban humidity hitting me in the face.
"Lucky," he said, as if I told him I had won a trip to the Bahamas, then turned to wave his sign at a bus rolling past us. "Reggg-ister to VOTE!" He'd developed a chant and was yelling it at sealed-up cars without a hint of irony.
My left arm was sore from pointing wildly in the direction of the Thundercloud Subs, with the registration table out front manned by two other volunteers. I had jumped around all of Austin trying to find a table that needed another volunteer. Frustrated, I had called one of the volunteer coordinators at eight and told her that the South Lamar sandwich shop was way overstaffed for the trickle of cars rolling by. Surely there was somewhere else that needed me more. "Increase street visibility and wait for the 10 o'clock rush," she said briskly. Over and out.
And so it was that I found myself in the backyard of my youth, across from the Sonic and Kerbey Lane Café I knew so well, haranguing cars with my sign and jumping around on the curb, nearly getting hit by the occasional CapMetro bus. Every time a car turned in to the Thundercloud parking lot, we cheered and shook our fists – even though sometimes all the person really wanted was a sub sandwich.
But as midnight approached, the cars driving by became scarce and the indigent staggering by became more frequent. I stood under the glow of the 7-Eleven sign, watching as people entered the gas station to feed their addictions. Cigarettes. Gas. Booze.
A voice from the darkness: "What are you doing?" I turned and saw a black man, cradling what appeared to be a crack pipe in his left hand, cigarette hanging off his lip.
"Registering voters…are you registered to vote?" I asked. He shook his head violently, dropped the object in his hand, and walked away with such a purpose that I didn't pursue him. I took a few steps to inspect his drug paraphernalia. It looked like something I'd seen in a glass store in Venice – millefiori, as my mom would say – a tiny kaleidoscope of oranges and blues and whites. I wondered if he knew he'd dropped such a beautiful object. I wondered if he knew who Barack Obama was. For both, impossible that he couldn't.
At two minutes until midnight, I began to abandon my street corner and walk back across the street as a coupe rolled into the parking lot and a man stepped out. I took my posterboard sign and gave it to Brandon, and we hesitated for a moment as the final person registered.
Long, dark hair and tattoos up his arms, it was a man not much older than me filling out his form painstakingly, grease stains on his hands. "And I sign here?" The woman manning the table nodded, smiling and handing him his receipt. "And here are some places where you can vote early. Be sure to take this and a photo ID with you to the polls." The man folded the slip of paper carefully and put it in his wallet, then let it fall to his side and dangle from the chain clipped to his belt. He lingered there for a moment and an expectant pause held in the air as all four of the volunteers – myself included – stared at him, the final registrant in the final seconds of the final day. I looked up. At any minute the sky could open and balloons and confetti might shower down upon him.
"Yeah," he said, sounding relieved. "Like, last time, man. My whole family, parents, uncles –they, they were like, all about Bush, y'know? And like, man. Now. This time. I wasn't going to like, you know, let that happen."
Now. This time. Yeah. I know.

My Bailout Plan
Oh, how low we have sank.
Without further adieu, I bring you Lib-a-grouchy:
I'm starting to get the feeling that "the people in charge" are trying to reshape our notion of housing. Remember McMansions and how we all wanted one and really, let's face it, we deserved one? I mean it's like an American right, isn't it? LIke an SUV and a Wii and that kind of thing? But now suddenly overnight, the wind has shifted and the breeze from the landfill isn't so pretty.
I just got my current AARP Bulletin, a charming rag sent to old people that is filled with tips on topics like how to stretch a can of catfood into two meals. And there's an article about homelessness, which is apparently on the rise among us geezers. The article mentions that the super-affluent town of Santa Barbara, CA is among a number of U.S. cities that is turning municipal parking lots into "relatively safe places" where people can sleep in their cars. "Communities are recognizing the viability of people living in their vehicles," notes a Santa Barbara official.
What a revelation! My car is a viable place to live. I'm going to remember that. Especially now that I have learned that this bailout plan Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson devised actually has an official moniker. It's called the Troubled Asset Relief Plan or TARP. I'm really excited about this acronym. I think I might even invest in a good tarp, because you never know when you might need one. TO LIVE UNDER.
Is it possible Mr Paulson is floating a trial balloon on the viability of tarp-based housing? If so, my preference for the time being, would be the viability of my car.
And as regards tone-deaf acronyms, Mr. Paulson--let's put some balls into it. Some suggestions:

Or perhaps: Make Your Crappy Ass-Loan Refinanced (MYCAR)
Or: Fiduciary Upload Credit & Extension Deployment (FUC&ED)

My Exclusive Interview with the Mayor's Replacement
Unfortunately, the Mayor booked it out of Sholz's before I could interview him, so I had to settle for the next best thing. Andy Brown, TCDP Chair, was wandering around handing out "tickets" to the free debate watch party at the Long Center on the 7th. He agreed to answer my mayoral questions as a stand-in for Will Wynn.

Stephen Collins admits sexual contact with young girls: People magazine
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Actor Stephen Collins, who played the family pastor in the television series "7th Heaven," has admitted to having inappropriate sexual contact with three underage girls decades ago, People magazine reported on Wednesday.
"Forty years ago, I did something terribly wrong that I deeply regret. I have been working to atone for it ever since," Collins, 67 said in a statement released to the magazine.
The actor said he decided to address the issue following the release earlier this year of an audio tape made during a confidential marriage therapy session with his estranged wife, Faye Grant. The session was recorded without his consent and released by TMZ, the celebrity news website.
The actor's representative did not respond to a request from Reuters for comment.
In the statement, Collins said there were three victims from 1973 to 1994, and that he has not had an impulse "to act out in any such way in the last 20 years."
"The publication of the recording has resulted in assumptions and innuendos about what I did that go far beyond what actually occurred. As difficult as this is, I want people to know the truth," he added.
Collins said he apologized to one of the women 15 years later and that she was gracious. But he added that during his treatment he learned that being so direct could make things worse by opening old wounds.
"I have not approached the other two women, one of whom is now in her 50s and the other in her 30s," he said, adding that he has agonized about whether to make a direct apology to them.
Following the release of the tape, Collins was dropped from the upcoming Universal Pictures comedy "Ted 2." The cable network UP TV, which hosts reruns of "7th Heaven," said it was removing the show from its schedule. Continued...

When I was a young woman studying in Italy I remember a merchant selling me—of all things—a red silk turban. "Ma Signorina, ti fa' bellissima", he gasped, hands clutched together as if a holy apparition had driven him to prayer. I had never worn a turban before—or any other hat for that matter, other than the woolen cap that kept the New England frost from biting my ears in the winter. But with a reaction such as his, I thought he might have been on to something important.
"How many lire did you say this costs?" Whatever it was, if it had really made me that beautiful , I was in, and here is my wallet.
"No need for a bag, just cut the tags, I will wear it out of the store." With straightened spine, shoulders back, and a graceful proud sway, I strode out into the main via of the town I was living in and much to my surprise, I saw more heads turn than had ever happened to me before. My day began to suddenly get lucky. A local artist began frantically sketching me and then gave me the gift of his labor. A young Italian gentleman with eyes like the midday sky in June asked me if I'd like to meet him later on for a dance. A fruit vendor thought I looked as beautiful as the ripe apricots he was selling and insist I take a few, gratis, on him. It was as if I had put a genie's lamp on my head. I began looking people in the eye and greeting them with a smile. I got the courage to go up to one of my professors and ask that he go over the parts of the lesson I hadn't quite understood. Friends were vying for my company, offering me concert tickets or promising the gelato later on would be on them. What was going on?
Certainly when I found a mirror that night and looked at myself in the sky-high red turban, I couldn't help but be mortified at how ludicrous I looked. Could everyone else have been putting me on, egging me along, making a joke out of me? Could they have possible seen me as more attractive with that monstrosity on my head? Or was I the one interacting with the world differently?
As it turns out, economists at the University of Verona actually studied the phenomenon of beauty and productivity. Research shows that students rate attractive professors as more effective, and more attractive students also seem to get better grades. Was it discrimination, or something else? We all know about the self-fulfilling prophecy—the fact that what people expect of others usually becomes a reality. A body of research also shows that more attractive individuals are seen as having a myriad of good qualities, and this "halo effect" drives how others treat them.
Researchers Cipriani and Zago, however, make a strong case for the effect of self-confidence on productivity. When a person feels more attractive, they behave more confidently, and people react to them differently. Because I believed that the red turban gave me elegance, beauty, stateliness—all of the qualities the merchant promised me it did, I carried that belief around with me all day, and the result was nothing short of amazing.
I often stress the importance of looking your best in my workshops and presentations. It is not about trying to impress others as much as it is about feeling good about the way you look to yourself. Why? Because doing so will make you confident, more productive, and each day now has the potential for a victory! Now go take off that turban (and I will, too)
