Gabriel Kahane: A Timeless Vision Of Los Angeles
Countless musicians have concocted concept albums built around all sorts of subjects, places and artistic influences. But far fewer concept albums can double as tour guide. Enter Gabriel Kahane, the prolific songwriter and composer whose latest work, The Ambassador, draws inspiration from the architecture and culture of Los Angeles. While Kahane was raised on the East Coast and in Northern California, he was born in L.A., and as such, delivers a detailed sense of place in ten songs -- each one representing a different location in the city.
Cleverly, Kahane's songs affix an actual address to their titles: "Black Garden (2673 Dundee Pl.)"; "Empire Liquor Mart (9172 S. Figueroa St.)"; Union Station (800 N. Alameda St.)" and so on. If one were to pinpoint these spots on Google Maps, the record would make for an fascinating soundtrack to that journey, especially as songs hop from one genre to the next -- from complex chamber pop and playful folk to jazz and new classical compositions.
More, The Ambassador uses this framing device as a backdrop to tell wistful and hyper-specific stories about himself and characters that inhabit this world and give it depth. Kahane's Los Angeles feels like a timeless amalgamation, with references to L.A.-centric pop culture and news: Raymond Chandler noir novels, films like Die Hard, Mildred Pierce, and Blade Runner, the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright and Richard Neutra, riots and earthquakes.
The Ambassador was co-produced by Kahane and frequent collaborators Casey Foubert (Sufjan Stevens), Matt Johnson (St. Vincent), and Rob Moose (Bon Iver) and features guest spots from singers Aoife O'Donovan, Holcombe Waller, and Shara Worden of My Brightest Diamond -- who all give voice to the various people in Kahane's songs. The result is an ambitious and deeply personal vision of a city with so much texture to uncover.
Set List:
- "Ambassador Hotel (3400 Wilshire Blvd.)"
- "Veda (1 Pierce Dr.)"
- "Griffith Park (2800 E. Observatory Ave.)"

Dungeons of Dredmor - Patch v1.06 Released, Linux Version Released
Gaslamp has released v1.06 for Dredmor - full patch notes in this announcement. A small snip:
GAMEPLAY: The resistance statistic now gives you a roll to block corruption attacks. GAMEPLAY: Mace and Axe skill trees have been revamped and enhanced. GAMEPLAY: Lord Dredmor can no longer be stunned or charmed. GAMEPLAY: Reworked Necronomiconomics. GAMEPLAY: Smithing is now a Warrior archetype. GAMEPLAY: Sneakiness has a -20 modifier. GAMEPLAY: Elemental Weapons now have some Elemental Resistances. Or something. GAMEPLAY: Added a bunch more items, including a keytar. GAMEPLAY: Some crafts are now unhidden by default. GAMEPLAY: Added the Mosolov Cocktail! Don't drink it all at once. GAMEPLAY: The 2X bottom bar is now implemented. We'll do the rest next patch. COSMETIC: Monster spellcasting now shows up on the text ticker. COSMETIC: More minimap icons! INTERNAL: Hidden Fun Stuff to make it so we can turn on the mod support without breaking everybody's save games. (That said, we have to put it in the patch before the mod support so that… well, so that it doesn't break everybody's save games.) INTERNAL: Hidden Fun Stuff, related to the Other Hidden Fun Stuff. LINUX: You can haz it.
...and more details about that Linux port you can see in that line above, incuding the "arcane" method of accessing it:
As we noted in the previous blog update, we now have Linux binaries. In fact, we snuck them into the Steam distribution, so that those of you who bought the game from us on Steam can install it and run it natively on Linux. The port is done! It's up to date. The distribution methods, though, are a bit arcane… so pay attention! There will be a quiz.
There will be two – at least! – separate channels for purchasing a Linux build of Dungeons of Dredmor that do not require fiddling about with WINE. This option is only suggested if you bought the game on Steam for Windows, and want to run it under Linux. If you have *not* purchased the game, we recommend you wait until we have a better distributor for your needs. That said, the following is a crash course in how to build it.
1. Install WINE. Install Steam under WINE. Install Dredmor, from Steam, under WINE.
2. Find where Steam has hidden Dredmor on your computer. In general, it will be somewhere like Steam/steamapps/common/Dungeons of Dredmor
3. Copy all that stuff out onto your Linux box in the location of your choice.
4. From that directory, run chmod -x Dredmor* {amd64,x86}/*
5. Run Dredmor.
6. Note that Diggles are not like penguins, and will not give you free software and/or herring. In fact, they want to kill you.
Linux is still somewhat in beta, as it hasn't gotten much testing. Please let us know how it goes.

Mayor Gray Celebrates Completion of Energy-Efficient Alley Lighting Project
Mayor Vincent Gray today joined officials from the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) and the District Department of the Environment (DDOE) to celebrate the completion of a project to replace alley lights with new energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly lighting fixtures. In a Mount Pleasant alley, Gray watched as DDOT contractors replaced an inefficient incandescent bulb with a new light-emitting diode (LED) light fixture. The installation was the last of 1,360 alley light replacements in a $1-million project that involved all of the District's eight wards.
"Already, results show these new light fixtures are saving energy – 57 to 60 percent – compared to the old incandescent, mercury vapor, and high-pressure sodium lights," said Gray, who has spearheaded the Sustainable DC effort to make the District the most sustainable city in the United States. "Imagine how much energy we could save if we expand this program to all 70,000 street and alley lights across the District. That would be a great down payment on a truly Sustainable DC."
The LED lights have a longer life expectancy than the District's existing lights and will reduce maintenance and energy costs as well as greenhouse-gas emissions. For example, a 189-watt incandescent bulb has a lamp life of 6-12 months; by comparison, a 54-watt LED light has a life expectancy of 12-15 years.
They also use the least amount of energy compared to other fixtures while offering less glare and better illumination, uniformity, safety, color and aesthetics.
"This is just one example of how we are reducing our footprint at DDOT through the use of green construction techniques, technology and infrastructure," said DDOT Director Terry Bellamy. "We're also fostering environmentally friendly forms of transportation and expanding our tree canopy. The Mayor's vision for a Sustainable DC is achievable with this type of investment, and with our partners at DDOE and other agencies, we will continue to do our part."
The District Department of Energy (DDOE) is supporting and funding the LED lighting project, under the U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Efficient and Conservation Block Grant program.
"An initiative like this that saves the city money, improves residents' safety, and reduces our energy appetite is certainly worthy of our investment," says Christophe A.G. Tulou, director of DDOE. "This is a great example of how involvement of many departments across the city will make Sustainable DC a reality."
It's estimated that the 1,360 new LED alley lights will save the District approximately 591,000 KWH in electricity annually, and as a result will cut CO2 emissions by 719 tons.
Before the start of this project, in conjunction with the Howard University Transportation Research Center, DDOT conducted a study and analysis of light-emitting diode (LED) lighting products from a variety of vendors and manufacturers. The study involved the evaluation and analysis of photometric readings, fixture life, efficacy, aesthetics, color temperature, dimmability and compatibility with remote monitoring and control systems. At the conclusion of the study, DDOT selected Lighting Science Group's (LSG) LSR-2 LED fixture as the preferred choice to replace the District's existing alley lights.
"When it comes to city planning, smart infrastructure save lives and dollars," said Jim Haworth, chairman and chief executive officer of Lighting Science Group of Lighting Science Group. "The Mayor, DDOT and DDOE are clearly united in their commitment to promoting both the safety and financial interests of District residents with their vision for a Sustainable DC, and Lighting Science Group is proud to do its part to bring that vision to life. Our roadway solutions offer notably longer-life expectancies than the District's existing lights and real reductions in maintenance and energy costs, as well as greenhouse gas emissions. With less glare and better illumination, uniformity, and color, the new LED street lights signal a true improvement for the nation's capital."
In 2005, the District became the largest city in the United States to convert all of its traffic signals to LED fixtures.
DDOT plans to install energy-efficient light fixtures throughout the city – including all District alleys, streets, bridges, tunnels and underpasses, pedestrian walkways, and bike and running trails by the end of 2015. DDOT is also exploring the use of solar and wind power as alternative power sources to reduce its dependency on the electrical grid.
For more information about Mayor Gray's Sustainable DC vision, visit the Sustainable DC website. More details about DDOT's Energy Saving Initiatives are also posted online at ddot.dc.gov.

Film Synopsis:
In the year 2154, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) will stop at nothing to preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium – but that doesn't stop the people of Earth from trying to get in by any means they can. Max (Matt Damon) agrees to take on a life threatening mission, one that could bring equality to these polarized worlds.
My Take:
In the year 2154, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, resource depleted Earth where crime and poverty are the norm. In addition to the over-crowding the planet's rampant sicknesses attract the poor seeking the state-of-the-art medical care available on Elysium - but some in Elysium will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve their citizens' luxurious lifestyle. The only man with the chance bring equality to these worlds is Max (Matt Damon), an ordinary guy in desperate need to get to Elysium. With his life hanging in the balance, he reluctantly takes on a dangerous mission - one that pits him against Elysium's Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) and her hard-line forces - but if he succeeds, he could save not only his own life, but millions of people on Earth as well.
I saw Elysium during its theatrical run and had fairly high hopes for writer/director Neill Blomkamp's sci-fi actioner as I really like "District 9". The plot here revolves around the film's protagonist Max, a troubled but decent fellow with a checkered past. Growing up in the shadow of the orbiting Elysium Max longed to go there but into adulthood succumbed to the allure of crime that would eventually land him in prison and afterward on parole. His dream, those closest to him and the life he knew as a child faded but wasn't forgotten.
My reaction to Elysium after seeing it in the theater was primarily lukewarm as I thought its script felt a bit uneven. Based on the subject matter one would get the impression that this is a sci-fi action film. I find it to be more of a sci-fi thriller containing elements of action. Max's character isn't developed well enough to carry the various subtexts found in the film. The villainess, Delacourt, is one dimensional as well which impacts the audience's ability to truly set her apart. My favorite character and the one that is fleshed out the best is Kruger, Delecourt's muscle. Right from the start it's clear that he is a force to be reckoned with and that a showdown is on the horizon.
The early parts of the film depict the societal fragmentation in its future along with a rather noticeable agenda that speaks to the human condition regarding poverty, elitism, and cautions of the squandering of resources. The second act sets up the events that will play out in the finale however the plot points necessary to derive credibility regarding the tonal shift in the story are skimmed over. Things get a little sentimental and there is one or two too many convenient conveniences that detract from the edgier theme explored in the earlier parts of the film. Having said all of that there are some truly defining moments that support the underlying elements within the storyline.
Aside from the primary characters there are several supporting roles that play well but fall into the "skimmed over" category. This doesn't make them any less effective though. This includes Max best friend, Julio, Delacourt's minion John Carlyle (played by William Fichtner), Elysium's President Patel and to a lesser degree Frey, Max's long lost friend who reappears playing a vital role in the finale's proceedings. Like "District 9" Elysium is a stylized film that portrays two worlds that are polar opposites. It succeeds at delineating them with an organic authenticity drawing the world above in an almost satirical fashion. The visuals are compelling and the production elements play perfectly against the narrative construct. The cast does a commendable job with what they are given to work with which I see as one of the film's strengths. I really enjoyed Sharlto Copley's "Kruger" while finding Jodie Foster's "Delacourt" to be the least credible.
When all was said and done my feelings on Elysium this second time around are essentially the same. I found it to be one of those films that prove entertaining due to the total sum of its parts rather than having the benefit of rewardingly engrossing thematic flow/script.

Elysium comes to Blu-ray Disc from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment featuring 1080p AVC encoded video that has an average bitrate of 25 Mbps and lossless DTS-HD 7.1 Master Audio sound that has an average bitrate of 2.8 Mbps.
Elysium utilizes a stylized visual design comprised of various elements that represent the differing environs featured in the story. Earth has a limited color scheme that works aesthetically well for the subject matter with the color range limited to shades of dark blue, grays and black and muted sepia. Uneven light and shading are prevalent. Contrast is tamped down and grays are multi-staged and delineated. The sequences that take place on Elysium have deep chromatic emphasis with vivid primaries, golden fleshtones and boldly applied contrast. I find the film's deep grays, rich blacks and intriguing use of color enamoring. The large amount of CGI featured in the film softened some of the background elements but I didn't found it to be excessive or distracting. Overall the quality of the video is high. It isn't always razor sharp but it is cleanly rendered with revealing refinement that increases the perception of fine detail. Blacks are dynamic and gradational and detail in shadows is just as strong. The video has a pleasing quality that coincides nicely with its gritty storyline.
The lossless DTS-HD MA soundtrack has excellent dynamic range, detail rich clarity and makes ample use of the entire surround platform to drive the film's thematic elements. As I mentioned earlier I find this film to be more of a thriller than a dyed in the wool actioner. In that regard I find this audio presentation to be spot on. Ryan Amon's music score, coupled along with well integrated discrete and atmospheric sound effects, plays an intricate role in this sometimes active surround mix. The additional rear channels aren't always in play however when applied the detection of subtle background sounds, off camera cues and spatial dimension within the room's acoustic environment is excellent. Early in the film when Max gets reacquainted with Frey in the hospital emergency room, the discrete placement of various sounds, including voices, electronic instruments etc. could be heard through the rear channels. The same is true during Max and Julio's visit to Spider's lair and Max's "interview" with his parole officer.
The LFE channel is active as the subwoofer works in tandem with the rest of the system to convey the palpably rich bass and dynamic impact associated with the sounds of battle as well as a number of low frequency sweeps that shook anything loose in my room. The first that I heard occurs during the opening title sequence, another that I noted happens in the finale just after the military ship crash lands on Elysium. Dialogue is firmly planted in the center channel and clearly renders voices and effects with appropriate distinction and balance within the front soundstage. I thoroughly enjoyed this audio presentation and found that it complimented the film's thematic tone. I have heard complaints that the soundtrack suffers from lackluster bass response as well as low volume levels in the surround channels. I didn't experience this. While there may not be perpetual use of truly deep bass I never found it to be lacking or disproportionate.
Both the audio and video presentations mimicked what I saw in the theater and together make for an excellent home theater experience.

Final Thoughts:
Elysium comes from the mind of writer/director Neill Blomkamp. It doesn't resonate as deeply as his District 9 but proves entertaining enough to warrant interest for genre fans that enjoy his visionary style. Elysium comes to Blu-ray from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment featuring faithful and rewarding high definition video and rousing 7.1 channel DTS-HD Master Audio surround sound coupled with a solid supplemental package that's loaded with format exclusive content. If you're already a fan this release is a no brainer. For those that may be curious it deserves a spot at the top of your rental queue.

Well, I enjoyed Oblivion (enough to buy it after Netflixing it) and even though Ralph's take on this film is lukewarm, he manages to make it sound worth looking into.
It's like his take on Lone Ranger and Tonto, by the time I finished reading the review I was interested in seeing a movie that I had stayed away from in the theater.
Ralph you're spot on, on point review as usual.
There is some shaky cam cinematography used in this film. I wouldn't describe it as pervasive though...

My wife is a Scifi fan so we went the first week to see it. She had high hopes as she liked District 9 a lot. Lukewarm says it all. The acting all around was just awful. JF was unbelievable and even MD was a pain to watch. Too bad.
The Mrs. and I wanted to see this when it was in Theaters, but never got around to it. I'm a sucker for some storylines (For instance, I'm the only one in the world who LOVES the Transformers Trilogy for more than just its A/V), so I'll approach this one with an open mind. Since it seems to be technically proficient, I'm going to pick this up anyway. In my neck of the woods, buying a blu ray is often less expensive than seeing it in a decently-outfitted theater, so, even if we don't like the story, at least I'll have a disc with a few demo scenes--all for less money than that trip to the theater that we kept putting off. (It's amazing how a home theater will cause a sharp decline in household Cineplex attendance.)
I do love Sci-Fi though and if my wish comes true I may still enjoy it. I'm sure I could think of a lot of other movies I wouldn't even watch for free
I'm sure you'll enjoy it. As I said in my review/rating, it's an entertaining film...

Yep. Unfortunately, most of the acting is sub-standard here, as is the plot, as is the direction. But Jodie Foster was truly bad.
Overall, a waste of time, IMO.
Saw "It's a Disaster" the night after and it's amazing how much more enjoyable it was to see a movie with a real story and better character development, costing probably a 10th of the production cost of Elysium.

I had read several negative reviews in the Oblivion thread and decided to give it a chance anyway. Really liked it. Ended up buying it.
Somehow I don't think that will happen with Elysium.

I'd say 4 out of 5 stars. My only complaint and it seems to be my most common gripe about movies is that the bass seemed pretty weak.
"Oooh a puzzle box, I love puzzles"/ "Are you familiar with 'The Lament Configuration"/ "Actually I'm lousy at puzzles..."

3D Show of Ghetto Opens in Warsaw
The 48 stereoscopic pictures shown at Warsaw's Fotoplastikon are images of people walking or begging in the streets, street vendors, German troops and the Jewish cemetery. Most of them were taken between 1940, when the ghetto was set up, and 1945, when almost nothing remained of Warsaw's (Poland) Jewish district.
Some of the images are very poignant, like one of a boy searching for lice in his clothes. Ambassador Zvi Rav-Ner said the photos are proof of the immense suffering of the Jews in the ghetto and a warning against nationalist violence.
At the turn of the 19th and early 20th centuries, a Fotoplastikon was a popular device that allowed viewers to watch changing three-dimensional images. The Warsaw Fotoplastikon is unique, in that it is the only one in Poland – and one of the very few in the world – that is still in perfect working condition. Built in the early 20th century, it stands in its original spot (and with only a few breaks due to historical circumstances, it has always been here).
More than 3,000 original photographs are displayed. Since 2008, the device is now under supervision of the Warsaw Uprising Museum (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego, web site in Polish language). It is considered by many to be an integral part of the Warsaw identity.
The exhibition is open from 10:00 to 18:00 except on Monday. Free on Sunday; otherwise tickets are available for 4 PLN (1.25$).

Victory Over Prop 8 Celebration in Silicon Valley
Federal Judge Vaughn Walker has ruled that Proposition 8, the voter-approved ban on same-sex marriages in the state, is unconstitutional under both the due process and equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Silicon Valley community celebrated with rallies at the DeFrank Center in San Jose and in front of City Hall in Mountain View. Similar celebrations were held throughout the state.

Although this is a major victory on the way to achieving full equality, the decision will be appealed by Prop. 8 supporters to the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which handles federal appeals for the western states. The case is likely to eventually make it to the U.S. Supreme Court. But on the evening of August 4th, celebrants put aside those concerns for the moment as they rallied in Mountain View.

Note to Self
China's One App to Rule them All
Forget Facebook or Twitter. With the inadvertent help of Chinese government censorship, an app called WeChat has taken over the lives of Chinese-Americans. It's part family lifeline, part public square, part dating site and it could be a model for the evolution of social networks.
This week on New Tech City, hear what's so special about WeChat as we journey through the hilarious story of a vexed husband trying to understand what makes this app so addictive and pervasive in Chinese-American circles. There's annoying patriotic sausages, smokey hot ladies, and a global tech ethnographer all mixed together. Good times.

Do you like the toile I used for the backing fabric? I was going to use some as applique on the front of the quilt as well but I decided to stick with embroidery.
We watched Capote last night and I worked away on my freeform fans while enjoying the movie. I have struggled with fitting the hoop on the borders and managing to hold the fabric tightly enough to end up with even stitches so I went hoop-free and it worked beautifully. If the weather doesn't heat up too much I should be able to finish the border in the next couple of weeks! I can't wait to put the final stitch in the binding and give myself a little pat on the back for completing a quilt. But, I mustn't get too far ahead of myself, there are a lot of stitches to sew before I get to that point.
I bought a linocut from Littlest Flower for Mr Duyvken for valentine's day and he loved it. The japanese paper is so delicate, I must make an effort to visit Ikea to get one of the ribba frames to put it in so we can get it out of the post tube and up on the wall. She was incredibly generous and included another of her prints as well so we now own two beautiful pieces.
Back on track!
Monday, February 20, 2006
I have two pieces of exciting news today. Firstly I am 8wks pregnant and suffering hideous morning sickness which is the norm for me, unfortunately. But, it doesn't last forever and
I can't wait to hold this new little life for the first time. Secondly, after a pregnancy and heat induced hiatus I have picked up the quilt again and have started the free form fans on the border. This is HUGE for me as I seem to have developed a fear of quilting borders and sewing on binding. It may not be perfect but at least it will be done!

Justin Bieber smooches Christmas under 'Mistletoe'
SANTA MONICA, Calif. – Outside, the weather is delightful — shorts and flip-flop fare — but Justin Bieber is all about the frightful.
"I love Christmas, being with my family up in Canada," says Bieber, 17, sprawled on a couch at the offices of Universal Music Group. "To me, Christmas is about giving."
This year, the teen phenom's gift to his legions (13 million Twitter followers and 36 million Facebook fans) is Under the Mistletoe, out Tuesday, a holiday album packing retooled classics, original compositions and plenty of collaborations.
He's kicking off a companion Believe Charity Drive at justinbiebermusic.com, where fans are encouraged to donate to seven charities he'll be supporting with some proceeds from the new disc. (Believe is the title of Bieber's next studio album, expected in early 2012.)
"To help people have food on their plate at that time of year is really special," Bieber says.
"I just helped a food drive in Stratford, Ontario, which is (where) my mom and I got food, so that was special for me," Bieber says.
His significant recasting of some holiday chestnuts will appeal to "a new generation of Christmas listener that wants their own thing," says Billboard editor Danyel Smith. "This is the hottest teen star in the world offering up some familiar songs, but also a lot of new sounds."
Fresh off a world tour and a summer of tabloid attention, Bieber strikes a noticeably older demeanor. His famous hair is short in the back, and his once-cherubic features are starting to thin out.
That maturity is also in evidence on Under the Mistletoe, a showcase for not only Bieber's songwriting but also his drumming (on a wildly street Little Drummer Boy, with rapper Busta Rhymes) and producing (on All I Want Is You).
"Most of the songs I collaborated on, but on (All I Want Is You), I was all by myself, doing the beat, the piano, the singing," he says. "It felt good."
There's an urban, youth-oriented vibe to his tweaked The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire) with Usher. Santa Claus Is Coming to Town samples early Jackson 5 hits. And Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You gets Bieber-fied when he joins in on vocals.
"Nothing too corny," he promises.
While Bieber is looking forward to the holidays back home in Canada — "I still haven't bought a house yet, it could be there, or in L.A. or in Atlanta, we'll see" — his next album is very much front and center.
"I'm about halfway through," he says. "I'm experimenting. What's big right now are beats that are in the clubs, like dubstep. So I want to mess with that stuff, but also stay me."

Rhinoplasty surgery is an usual kind of nose surgical procedure which is carried out to boost the appearance of the nose. It needs to just be performed by a specialist that has gotten expert training is required, and only a top Rhinoplasty Specialist can perform the procedure, such as a appropriately trained ENT expert. A few of the typical problems which can be treated via rhinoplasty include bumps on the bridge, and nose dimension. The methods used during nose surgical procedure rely on the situation. Among the most common methods utilized in nose job is osteotomy. Just what is osteotomy?
Osteotomy is a term utilized to describe surgical procedures throughout which bone is broken down, or a piece of bone is cut off. Most of rhinoplasty treatments, some sort of osteotomy is commonly needed, to relocate or tailor the osseocartilaginous safe, makings up a considerable part of the nose.
In nose surgery, osteotomy might consist of the excising or smashing of bones in the nose. It is normally executed to deal with a nasal bulge, enhance a twisted nose, or make a large nose narrower. As the medical tools utilized during osteotomy make small noises while touching the bone, clients are normally kept under massive sedation or general anaesthesia, while the procedure is being done.
Amongst the common osteotomic techniques used in nose medical procedure is the media osteotomy. Throughout this type of osteotomy, the nasal bone is cut in the middle with a back cut. Then, a little osteotome (bone blade) is placed along the side of the bone, and gently tapped to move it along a previously intended course. After the bone is cut, it can be relocated, as required.
Minneapolis Minnesota has extremely reputed surgeons that specialises in rhinoplasty. The Ear Nose & Throat (ENT) surgeon in Minneapolis are proficient at doing also the most technically complexed kinds of nose surgical procedure. All our ENT cosmetic surgeons are identified with the board of certified surgeons.

good day everyone!
ok vmware installed ... checked
ok backtrack inside vmware ... checked
ok usb wireless adaptor with an external antenna ... error
........................................... starting post
now thats where everybody get screw what i'm trying to, find is and usb wireless adaptor preferably (N) since we now that is the fastest.
* but must be antenna attachable i found some like it --->>
Edimax 7318USG
*and i thought if a replace that little antenna for big one things would improve a lot like this ----->>>>
D-Link ANT24-0800
*i also have check the backtrack website to see if the model edimax woudl be compatible and it seems that it's fine
now what it makes me confuse is would that work ???
if anyone knows a good wireless N usb adaptor that can attach a high range antenna i would be glad to know i dont care how much it cost just a little bit
or then just freaking give me any usb wireless adapt that i can attach an antenna any ideas?
any help is welcome im googleing this for 3 days now
I agree with Barry. This is the advice I got from sandaili.
"There is another Alfa that does b/g/n, but it is not as good on b and g as the original Alfa you are talking about. The company has a blog on it but I can't link to it because I have less than 15 posts. Anyway, go with the original Alfa you are thinking of, and enjoy I have used it now on both BT3 and BT4 Prefinal.
I would not get this card for "range" (yes it sees a few more networks than my laptop, but my Airlink 101 card sees even more networks, however is not supported for injection or really at all..I only got it to work once).
I'd just get the card because it's fairly cheap and it's known to work and is supposed to be durable. Mine is only a few days old but I hope that is the case with the ruggedness."
then, ~LCF~ says
"As theprez98 said, buy the Alfa 500 b/g. Avoid the draft-n card : it seems to me there's no driver patched for injection for now... Moreover, you might not find yet any (draft-)n/ADSL box for a little while... And should you find one, it would use WPA2... Nothing really interesting if you search for WEP..."
that's the advice I got, and so far it makes perfect sense.
I looked up the Alfa cards and I've decided to buy the AWUS036H for g and b, and I will buy a seperate card for n (yet to be determined).
Hope that helps you, the thread with this info is mine, close to this one. Its called 'before I even bother installing...'
Apparently good n cards that can inject are hard to find, but I'll let you know what I come up with.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
After the third week, the 8-11 Red Sox are already 6.0 games out of the division, and 4.5 games out of the Wild Card. Oakland is still ruling the roost out West, as is San Diego, which few saw coming. An eight-game win streak this early will do that. Washington is somehow above .500, and remember how well the Pirates were doing? They're back in last place in their division, so some of the expected pieces are falling back into place. So much positioning is still up for grabs (four teams in the National League are tied at 0.5 games out of the Wild Card), so let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Monday, April 26, before the day's games:
San Francisco is only 4-6 in their last 10, while the Cardinals aren't much better at 5-5. These two just completed a three-game series in San Fran, with the Giants winning 4-1 and 2-0, then the Cardinals winning 2-0. After that series, I think it's safe to say that pitching would decide this playoff series. The Giants have Lincecum and Zito, while the Redbirds have Carpernter, Wainwright, and Penny. This one will be hotly contested amongst pitchers, so Albert Pujols might just have to cast the tie-breaking vote.
Doc can only take Philadelphia so far; the rest of the pitching staff needs to get better and healthy in a hurry. Ryan Howard and Chase Utley can do what they can, but Adrian Gonzalez has homered in four consecutive games. Philly will need those pitchers to have a good shot at it, especially when you consider they need to seize home field advantage.
Oakland beat the Yankees once, but they also lost to Baltimore once. Tampa is an impressive 9-1 on the road, but only 5-4 at home, though don't think that means it's easy to win at Tropicana. Tampa is a defensive team that can also hit and run the base-path. They're a lethal threat in the uber-competitive AL East, and without any playoff experience since being swept in the 2006 ALCS, Oakland will have a very hard time doing any better.
Here we go again, but this time, Minnesota has home field advantage. Mauer and co. have a three-game lead over the Tigers for the division, and don't appear to be letting up any time soon. CC Sabathia is pretty much a sure thing for New York, assuming they don't overuse him to end the season. On the other hand, the Twins are very capable of taking down Javier Vazquez. But taking down the rest of the Yankees staff, while holding off Jeter, A-Rod, and Teixeira? It's a tall order for any team.

There's nothing like the power of information. No matter how much the Islamic civilization tries to hide from the 21st century, it's like emptying the ocean with a spoon.
Google Earth Spurs Bahraini Equality Drive
SinceAnd of course, it's us bloggers again.
's government blocked the Google Earth website earlier this year for its intrusion into private homes and royal palaces, Googling their island kingdom has become a national pastime for many Bahrainis. The site allows internet users to view satellite images of the world in varying degrees of detail. When Google updated its images of Bahrain to higher definition, cyber-activists seized on the view it gave of estates and private islands belonging to the ruling al-Khalifa family to highlight the inequity of land distribution in the tiny Gulf kingdom. A senior government official told the Financial Times that Google Earth had allowed the public to pry into private homes and ogle people's motor yachts and swimming pools. But he acknowledged that the government's three-day attempt to block the site had proved counterproductive. It gave instant publicity to Google Earth and contributed to growing sophistication among Bahrainis in circumventing web censorship. It also provided more ammunition to democracy activists ahead of parliamentary elections this Saturday, the second since King Hamad bin Issa al-Khalifa began introducing limited political reforms in 2001. Bahrain
Mahmood al-Yousif, a businessman whose political chat and blog site Mahmood's Den is among Bahrain's most popular, says that in the tense run-up to the polls, few Bahrainis have not surfed over the contours of their kingdom, comparing vast royal palaces, marinas and golf courses with crowded Shia villages nearby, where unemployment is rife and services meager. For those with insufficient bandwidth to access Google Earth, a PDF file with dozens of downloaded images of royal estates has been circulated anonymously by e-mail. Mr Yousif, among others, initially encouraged web users to post images on photo-sharing websites. "Some of the palaces take up more space than three or four villages nearby and block access to the sea for fishermen. People knew this already. But they never saw it. All they saw were the surrounding walls," said Mr Yousif, who is seen in
as the grandfather of its blogging community. He and other activists believe creative use of the internet – connectivity in Bahrain is among the highest in the Arab world – is forcing the country to confront awkward realities and will speed the march towards a more egalitarian society. Bahrain
You got that right.

Potassium Permanganate disposal
I have some potassium permanganate I'd like to use to dip some plants in (to prepare them for shipping - to make sure there aren't any snails on them and to "sanitize" them). Can anyone tell me how to properly dispose of it once I've used it? Would it be bad to dump it down the drain, considering that I have a septic system?
You can neutralize it with H2O2 first though a little bit diluted down the drain should not harm your septic bacteria
It stains skin (and other things) and burns soft tissue, so be careful. :) Eye protection is highly recommended.
I don't know that I would pour it down the drain, not because of any hazard, but because it could stain your sink. In the quantity you're talking about, if you dilute it with water, disposal isn't a problem. I would probably dilute it and place it in the sun for a day and then after it decomposed, pour it outside on the ground away from any water sources.

He does get a bit mouthy when in play mode but if we go for an outside play time for about ten min he calms right down. And we take him everywhere with us and I'm just so surprised how calm he is when we are he just doesn't seem to care about other ppl or even react to loud sounds like trains , motorcycles ect.... I'm just pleasantly surprised if the best way to keep him this way is to continue to take him places. He is making it easy on us lol. And he just seems so smart he is already picking up the sit command with 3 training sessions and the potty bell. And he knows when it's cuddle time and when it's play time. Now I did notice he is way more mouthy with my boyfriend than me he likes to have my fingers in his mouth but he just licks them and won't bite. But he does full on bite my boyfriend. Any thoughts ?

Too soon to tell, but maybe. Dena was wonderful right from the beginning - she was never a destructive chewer, didn't have a reactive bone in her body, and was great with people, especially kids, who she adored.
But the best way to assure that he remains the terrific puppy he is right now is to keep up the good work with his training and socialization. It's always better to be proactive about preventing issues that to have to try and fix them later, once they've become established.
The quite before the storm?
So we have a 12 week old pup and literally he has been the perfect pup. He whines we he needs to go out at night then pees immediately. There hasn't been one accident in the house. When we take him out in public he just sits at my feet and people watches then if someone comes up and wants to meet him he is very friendly and he even tolerated a little kid today great no jumping or biting and the little kid was all in his face and everything. He just seems to perfect I'm wondering if I'm going to be In for it later or did we just luck out and get a really great temperament dog ?

Submitted to: Advances in Strawberry Research
Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: 12/21/1998
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary: Strawberries are highly perishable with a short postharvest life. They are susceptible to decay, mechanical injury, and physiological deterioration. A major problem with strawberry storage is the development of decay caused by a variety of fungi. These diseases can be reduced with the application of certain fungicides. However, increasing public concern has been raised over the possible harmful health effects of the use of agricultural chemicals. We have found that moist hot air treatment can reduce the decay of strawberry fruit caused by fungi. This nonchemical method has the potential of being used as an alternative to fungicide application. We have found that heat treatment at certain temperatures and durations can also help maintain postharvest quality and extend storage and shelf life of strawberries. This research is therefore beneficial to the strawberry industry and consumers.
Technical Abstract: 'Northeaster' strawberries were heated with moist hot air at 36, 39, 42, 45, 50, or 55 C for durations of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, or 100 min. Fruit were injured when exposed to temperatures 50 C or higher, or durations of 60 min or longer at 45 C. Treatment at 45 C for 40 min or at 42 C for 60-100 min resulted in the least decay incidence after 5 days at 0 C, 3 days at 10 C, and 1 day at 20 C. No significant differences in pH of strawberry juice was detected among all the treatments. However, heated strawberries in general had lower titratable acidity, higher soluble solids content and higher levels of fructose, glucose, and sucrose than nonheated samples. Heated fruit also had a higher soluble solids/acid ratio, but lower citric acid and malic acid content. The lightness measurements, L, and chroma values, C, were decreased by moist hot air treatment and the fruit were duller and less bright in appearance after heat treatment. However, no consistent patterns were detected in other color readings, a, b and h. Strawberries heated with 39 C or lower temperatures had no discernable differences from nontreated fruit in quality attributes measured. However, fruit treated with 45 C for 40 min or 42 C for 60-100 min maintained better postharvest quality than other treatments because of less decay, higher sugars, lower acidity, and greater soluble solids/acid ratios.

There are times when destiny can really make a mess out of a situation that is going well, but sometimes people end up making a bigger mess out of the best opportunities that destiny provides and something similar has happened with Jacqueline Fernandez. Jacqueline was making a lot of news in the Bollywood with some really big breaks that she was getting. Jacqueline made her debut in Aladin which didn't do well at the box office and then she was seen in Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai which also flopped at the box office but she still managed to impress directors with her oomph figure.
She soon managed to get better roles in Murder 2 and Housefull 2, but she was in the news for getting one of the biggest breaks in Krrish 2 which is being directed by Rakesh Roshan and will star Hritik Roshan. After watching the success of Murder 2, Rakesh Roshan decided that Jacqueline was best suited for the female villain role in the movie and decided to rope her in the movie. Most of the industry experts believed that this role would change the career of Jacqueline forever because she would be working with the best director who have provided many hits.
However, it was soon found that Jacqueline is just too busy with her shooting for Housefull 2 and Raaz 3 and therefore have date issues for Krrish 2. Many insiders claim that Jacqueline was not comfortable doing a bikini scene in the movie and Rakesh Roshan decided to opt for another female villain. However, this might not be the right reason because Jacqueline has already done some bold scenes in her earlier movies. Currently, Rakesh Roshan is looking for another female villain that would handle the negative character in the movie and make the script better.

Grand Theft Auto (London 1969, London 1961) | Grand Theft Auto 2
Grand Theft Auto III | Grand Theft Auto: Vice City | Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories | Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
Grand Theft Auto (commonly abbreviated GTA) is a video game series created in the United Kingdom by Dave Jones, then later by brothers Dan Houser and Sam Houser, and game designer Zachary Clarke. It is primarily developed by British developer Rockstar North (formerly DMA Design) and published by Rockstar Games. The name of the series is derived from grand theft auto, a term referring to motor vehicle theft. The series has won multiple awards.
The series is set in fictional locales heavily modelled on American cities, while an expansion for the original was based in London. Gameplay focuses on an open world where the player can choose missions to progress an overall story, as well as engaging in side activities, all consisting of action-adventure, driving, occasional role-playing, stealth, and racing elements. The subject of the games is usually a comedic satire of American culture, but the series has gained controversy for its adult nature and violent themes.
The series focuses around many different protagonists who attempt to rise through the ranks of the criminal underworld, although their motives for doing so vary in each game. The antagonists are commonly characters who have betrayed the protagonist or his organisation, or characters who have the most impact impeding the protagonist's progress.

Grand Theft Auto resulted from a glitch in an earlier DMA Designs game, Race 'n Chase. The glitch made the police attempt to run the player's car off the road rather than pulling them over; it was so popular with play-testers that the game was reworked to focus on the behavior.
Grand Theft Auto was the first game to take place in more than one city.
To date, Grand Theft Auto is the only game of the series to have two protagonist options that are female.
Head Radio is the only radio station from Grand Theft Auto that appears in other games; it was also a station in Grand Theft Auto 2 as well as in GTA III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and was planned to be in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Grand Theft Auto 2 is the only GTA game on two different generation of consoles. PlayStation is 5th generation while the Dreamcast is 6th generation.
GTA Advance is the only Grand Theft Auto game to incorporate a speedometer for cars.
Either an exterior or interior of Liberty City appears in some form in all of the GTA III era games except for Vice City Stories, where Liberty City is at least referenced.
In almost all GTA III era games, the cars have a clutch system by pressing the brake and accelerator simultaneously (as in doing a burnout) while the car is in motion. When you press them, the car seems to be rolling without engine power (except GTA III).
The appearance of Sex Club 7 in the Liberty City scene of The Introduction (San Andreas) is a canonical error. Before 1998, it was called Paulie's Revue Bar. This happened because Rockstar wrote GTA: Liberty City Stories after GTA: San Andreas.
Motorbikes were "banned" in Liberty City between 1999 and 2001 to make room for more cars. This is the game's explanation for why motorcycles were unavailable in GTA III.
Lazlow and Fernando Martinez are said to reside in Upstate Liberty.
Vice City is the only setting in the GTA III era not to feature a Chinatown district.
Vice City is the only city in the GTA III era that did not feature any universities or colleges.
Tommy speaks very little Spanish, as heard between his farewell to Colonel Cortez in All Hands On Deck.
At 35 years of age during the events of Vice City (50 by the events of Grand Theft Auto III), Tommy is currently the oldest protagonist in the series.
Toni Cipriani is likely an homage to Tony Soprano, the main character from The Sopranos. Aside from their names, both characters also share ongoing problems with their mothers who also ordered hits on them. They would also later go on to have severe weight problems.
Toni is the only protagonist to give another protagonist missions (namely, Claude).
Toni is the only protagonist who can be heard speaking on the radio, as he calls Chatterbox FM to complain about his mother during GTA III.
San Fierro is the smallest city in the GTA III era.
Daniel Lamb, protagonist of Manhunt 2, was born in San Fierro.
Las Venturas is the least populous city in the GTA III era with a population of 500,000.
In Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, after killing Paulie Sindacco, his tombstone in Liberty City cemetery will say Viva Las Venturas Baby.
I am a huge GTA fan - specifically with the GTA III era titles. :)

Clients are provided with a milieu of interactive exercises using selected forms of media designed to elicit the expression of thoughts, feelings and emotions related to past, present, perceived or expected grief/loss.
Types of exercises used include, but are not limited to, the use of color in grief. Picture identification and the use of storytelling. Word association and the verbalization of the emotional response to grief and loss. Guided Imagery Mediation as a form of healing hurt, pain, guilt, shame and remorse associated grief and loss.
Types of losses addressed vary depending on the client. While death, divorce and major life cycle changes are the most prevalent, grief and loss are specific to the individual.
The grief tract is a four to six week, closed group module. Each session builds on the previous session and clients are asked to make a personal commitment, and are expected, to attend all sessions for maximum benefit. Each session is approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours depending on clients need to take breaks.
Group Size:
Ideal group size for grief/loss work is six to eight clients. Clients are encouraged to share their story with each other as a manner of therapeutic healing. Clients are encouraged to support each other in their work.
Group confidentiality is strictly enforced. Clients need to feels safe in their expression of feelings associated with loss. Violation of group confidentiality is grounds for dismissal from the group.

During recent weeks, there has been considerable question regarding the proper diet and feeding of captive piranhas. So I wrote a little essay about it. What follows is a brief overview of what you, the hobbyist, need to know, and understand, in order to provide a happy and healthy captive environment for your piranhas.
Piranhas are for the most part, carnivores. That is, they consume flesh from other animals in order to fulfill their dietary requirements. In nature, piranhas feed mainly on whole fish and fish parts. What is valuable to understand most can be broken down into two main points: First, just because a fish is a carnivore, does not mean that it's a predator. Without trying to cause mass confusion, please let's clarify that in this case (with piranhas), they are predatory in nature. But how predatory? Second, piranhas eat far more fish flesh than any other type of food. Why? Well it is safe to say that there are far more fish to be eaten than cattle, capybara, storks, or even ducks. Piranhas are fish, they live among many hundreds of millions of other fishes, and they eat fishes.
Certainly we all have watched the poor mouse swimming frantically across the top of the water only to get ravaged by Satan's goldfish several times on videos and/or in sequence pictures posted here and other places among the WWW, but seriously, does mammalian flesh make up a considerable portion of wild piranhas diets? No, it does not. Neither does the flesh of birds, amphibians, nor reptiles make up a considerable amount of any species of piranhas regular diet. Now in extreme circumstances such as a drying lagoon in the peak of the dry season in the Llanos of Venezuela, maybe. I think it not too wise to consider home aquariums an extreme circumstance however.
Piranhas are better scavengers than they are pursuers. For this reason, a sub-grouping is in order for them. While piranhas are no doubt predatory in nature, they are also well adept at scavenging and therefore are referred to herein as opportunistic predatory scavengers (OPCs). OPCs are known for their uncanny ability to hunt down the weak, dead, or dying animals in their elements. With great sense of taste, good eyesight, and a remarkable ability to detect nervous, abnormal motion in their environment, certainly, piranhas are very well suited for such a task.
Very rarely will normal, healthy piranhas hunt down normal, healthy food. This is so in aquaria due to the confined space, however, in nature, the flow of energy (energy dynamics) is much more important to their survival and this topic is way out of the scope of this mini-article. More another time on this issue.
That said; the diet of captive piranhas should consist of at least 95% whole fishes or parts of fishes. These can be varied but some species are more nutritious than others. For example, some good choices to feed your piranhas regularly are those that have what is called "white" flesh. These include but are not limited to: catfish, sea bass, striper, flounder, scrod, blackfish (tautog), halibut, and Tilapia. These fishes are bland but nutrient packed and offer a near complete diet with the only exception being the lipids and fatty acids that are found in organ meat.
Then we have "pink" fleshed fishes such as: Salmon, trout, sea trout, and orange roughy. Those species that have "pink" flesh are usually fine to feed piranhas in captivity provided that they are fed fresh, very fresh, as the oils that are contained in these fishes are heavy and can cause considerable pollution in your aquariums. The feeding of these fishes to your piranhas should be limited or avoided all together if you cannot clean up after their meal. These meats will definitely cause an oil slick on the surface of your tank's water so be cautioned.
Finally we have "red" fleshed fishes. These include: Mako, swordfish, marlin, tuna, and all other sharks and billfishes. These meats can be extraordinarily messy to feed and they often release high levels of blood and other juices into the aquarium. The tanks often stink within hours of feeding such foods and they are best avoided all together.
Aside from not being a natural food source, mammalian red meats are often high in hormones and fats. These will cause undesirable weight gain and retention in captive piranhas to the point of obesity and ultimately a premature death. They often have very high pollution associated with their use should a hobbyist not remove uneaten foodstuffs after feeding. All in all, stay away from these meats except for a rare treat. For these reasons, red meats and poultry should only make up 2-3% of the piranhas diet in captivity.
The same can be said about organ meats as has been said of red meats and poultry. Captive piranhas will get all of their dietary requirements that organs provide through the regular feedings of live/frozen/fresh-killed whole fishes. Foods such as beef heart, lung, liver, and intestine should NOT be a part of piranha's regular diets in captivity.
As a general rule of thumb, smaller piranhas need to feed more frequently than larger ones do respectively. There exists no magical chart, table, or graph that depicts such a feeding schedule and don't be fooled into believing there is (by anyone). This is something that you will have to formulate on your own. It is strictly trial and error. If you feed you 5" cariba six times a week and they look as if they are ready to pop after each feeding then you are probably feeding too much, but maybe not. There are variables that come into play.
The only generally safe statement to be made here is that when feeding your piranhas, feed to satiation, that is, round out their bellies. Do NOT make them teeter-totter on the bottom of their aquarium and do not feed them until they start to vomit. When you notice a slight rounding out of the belly then stop. They have had enough, usually.
Just as in humans, normally more active piranhas require more food than do conspecifics that are less active. If you have two identical aquariums, both with six 10" piranhas each and the only difference being that one had a flow rate (filter's turnover rate included) of 1000 GPH whereas the other had a flow rate of 2000 GPH. It would be true to say that the piranhas in the aquarium with the higher flow rate would require more food than those in the other aquarium. Why? Because of energy usage and energy dynamics.
Another variable in feeding your piranhas is water temperature. Since piranhas are cold-blooded, that is, they have no thermal regulatory device for maintaining internal temperature, they are directly influenced by their thermal metabolism and how it processes foods. The higher the temperature is, (to a point) the faster the metabolism. The colder the temperature is, the slower the metabolism.
If you are, or have been, over feeding your piranhas then stop feeding them so much and so often. Small, frequent feedings are better than large, sporadic feedings. Piranhas fall somewhere in between that statement and it is up to you to figure out their optimum balance. Another good thing to do is to increase (slowly if possible) the water flow as to provide exercise to your piranhas. This increased water flow will force them to use more energy and shed some pounds (or ounces) off their bodies. If your tank is heavily planted or decorated then you may need to open it up a bit so the fish are forced into the open. The end results will prove to be healthier, happier piranhas and happier, more educated hobbyists.
Happy piranha keeping!!!!

Krugman: Fox Business crew "aren't really pro-business; they're pro-Republican"
Blog ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF
From Krugman's November 11 New York Times blog post:
Clearly, the Fox Business crew is having a very hard time. They bill themselves as being truly pro-business - not like those leftists at CNBC. But they aren't really pro-business; they're pro-Republican. They'd like you to believe that it's the same thing; but there's this awkward fact that markets have, you know, gone up under Obama.
And this isn't just a phenomenon of the last few months. Look back at stock returns under recent presidents, which is easy using a clever gadget at Political Calculations. Taking real, dividend-inclusive annual returns on the S&P 500, I get:
Reagan: 10.08%
Bush I: 10.16%
Clinton: 14.35%
Bush II: minus 5.81%
Tax-hiking Democrats are supposed to be terrible for business; I mean, Norman Podhoretz whines that Jews should be conservatives because Republican policies are better for the economy. But the data just refuse to say that - and that's even if we restrict ourselves to the stock market, never mind job creation, wages, poverty and all that.
So the whole idea of Fox Business is problematic. It's Fox, which means that it's basically an arm of the GOP; but that's a terrible match for business coverage, because the economy just refuses to punish liberals and reward conservatives the way it's supposed to.
I gather that Fox Biz has managed to push up its morning ratings by hiring that great financial guru Don Imus. But that sort of proves the point; Fox Business can get viewers, but only by turning itself into ... Fox News.

Isn't the organization pretty high on this kid? Everyone "planning" for next year just keeps talking about Amir and Maxiell. Where's the excitement over this kid? I say let Delk go and give his minutes to Acker.

Consider the 3D contour plot generated by:
graph = ContourPlot3D[x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 1, {x, -2, 2}, {y, -2, 2}, {z, -2,
2}, PlotPoints -> 6];
The following function replaces all polygons in "g" with colored polygons
using a color "f":
ReColor[f_, g_] :=
g[[1]] /.
Polygon[p_] :> Block[{r = Mean[p]}, {f[r], Polygon[p]}]
This example coloring function "f" can be applied to our example contour
f[{x_, y_, z_}] := RGBColor[(x + 1)/2, (y + 1)/2, (z + 1)/2]
The result can be rendered using:
Show[Graphics3D[ReColor[f, graph]], Lighting -> False]

These single-serving "ShotPak" drinks contain a swallow of alcohol, from "STR8UP" unadulterated selections like rum and whisky to pre-mixed cocktails like lemon drops or kamikazes. They are also green, says the manufacturer, as each ShotPak "has the lowest carbon dioxide footprint of any container used to package alcohol in the world." Technically correct, perhaps, but otherwise a spectacular example of drunkenly missing the forest to swerve wildly into felled trees.
Each ShotPak contains 50 milliliters of liquid. A six-pack of shots can be found in liquor and party stores for around $8.
I'm thinking it's about time we do a round-up on flasks, the original, reusable shot packs.
