Joel---Had a MOST FASCINATING VISION accompanied by a VOICE some hours ago while I lay there in bed
Hugh--- It is interesting that the vision and OBE occurred while you were in bed. I too have had many OBE while in bed.
Much love, sweet Hugh.

Only a trained yogi can have willed OBEs or they take place in a trained yogi spontaneously at times under the pressure of the dynamic descent of the higher force.
Can you describe the mechanism of an OBE if you claim to have experienced the phenomenon?

1) Now, coming back to the phenomenon of the emergence of a new species from an existing organism on account of an infusion of a new bit of information in terms of a new state of consciousness-force with the force fields of an existing organism, it's evident that this phenomenon takes place only in the fit individual whose apparatus is in a state of steady aspiration to outgrow the limitations of the old typal features.
2) It's not that the entire species develops into a new type.
3) An organism of a prototypal species, can, if it develops the sustained urge to develop furthe, draw in a new bit of information from the universal force fields or there can come about a merger of a new bit of information with the force fields of an existing organism in this state of high aspiration thereby causing it to assimilate the new bit of information and with this incoming bit of consciousness-energy serving as the new material/impelling force, the existing genes of the organism undergo a mutation giving rise to new typal genes suited to express the new features.
4) The organism thus infused by the new bit of consciousness-energy then goes through several transition stages over a short period of time or over a long period of time and ultimately the new type emerges from the old type and in this way a new species emerges.
5) Since, just a handful of organisms in a prototypal species could acquire a higher state of aspiration or the higher urge to evolve further thus the transitional stages to the new type are rare to find and on death quickly get decomposed under layers of soil/water.
6) The evolutionary phenomenon that I perceived in vision is rare and happens only when a new range of consciousness-force gets activated in the terrestrial force fields.
7) Once the few fit organisms of a particular species transit to the new typal form they begin multiplying via sexual means and a whole population of the new type comes into existence.
8) The old view that I had of the materialization of the typal ranges of consciousness-energy into the various species is also valid but the above description is a deeper insight into the evolutionary mechanism and it is this evolutionary mechanism of infusion followed by emergence in fit individual that will give rise to the supramental being (a new species) from the mental being/man (old species). So, both mechanisms are possible. The yogic vision has clarified the subject in deep ways.

On the flip side of the notes on the evolution of consciousness-energy in a typal form via an act of emergence, is a statement made to me by a friend a few weeks ago that the formula of kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2 is invalid in terms of conservation of energy principle.
Let's check:
Ke = 1/2 mv^2
For a formula/equation to be valid, it should be dimensionally correct.
Ke is a form of energy.
SI unit of energy is joule (the unit is written in small letters since the whole name of the unit is typed, whereas if only the symbol is expressed then we use the capital letter as for instance in this case it would be J).
What is a joule?
W = FscosA or W = FssinA
If A = 0 or 90,
W = Fs (since cos 0 = 1, sin 90 or sin pi/2 = 1)
W = Fs ( s = displacement in direction of F)
In terms of SI units, W = newton-meter or Nm.
W = 1kg-m/s^2 x m = 1 kg-m^2/s^2
Thus, the dimensions of W (work)= M^1 L^2 T^-2.
Now, Pe (gravitational potential energy)= mgh = Fh (h = vertical displacement).
So, W = Pe and thus both W and Pe should have the same dimensions = M^1 L^2 T^-2.
By W-E theorem, Ke is inter-convertible into Pe and vice versa. Thus, Ke should also have the same dimensions (M^1 L^2 T^-2) as W and Pe.
Ke = 1/2 mv^2.
The ratio 1/2 being a pure ratio of numbers has no units and hence no dimensions but it is an integral part of the formula of Ke.
Ke is dimensionally valid but does its formula obey the principle of conservation of energy?
For a body of mass m moving with uniform motion,
Ke = 1/2mv^2
m remains unchanged at low speeds far below c in air/vacuum.
So, Ke = 1/2 mv^2
If v = 1 m/s
Ke1 = 1/2 m (1)^2 = 1/2 m = 0.5m J .........(1)
If v = 2 m/s
Ke2 = 1/2m(2)^2 = 1/2 x m x 4 = 2m J.........(2)
Change in Ke = Ke2 - Ke1 = 2m - 0.5m = 1.5m J
If v = 3 m/s
Ke3 = 1/2m (3)^2 = 1/2 x m x 9 = 4.5m J........(3)
Change in Ke per sec from 2 sec to 3 sec = Ke3 = ke2 = 4.5m - 2m = 2.5m J
If v = 4 m/s,
Ke4 = 1/2 m (4)^2 = 1/2 x m x 16 = 8m J........(4)
Change in Ke,
Ke4 - Ke3 = 8m - 4.5m = 3.5m
So, we see a violation of the conservation principle with each successive gain in velocity per second for a mass traveling with uniform motion.
CONCLUSION: Ke is dimensionally correct but violates the principle of conservation of energy. Where does the extra energy come from to keep the mass in uniform motion?

Death not for "insulting"....but by lampooning and abusing and making fun of the Prophet and Messenger of God.
And we would "love" if the same law was made for lampooning, abusing and making fun of Other prophets of God, like Moses and Jesus.
People should know the limits to which they can go in these matters.

How interesting you accidentally stumbled onto a truth.
People SHOULD know the limits to which they can go and advocating death for satire is clearly far beyond the limits of any civilised society.

rabbee: if any one insults, any true prophet of G-D. it is G-D'S, job to punish them not yours. muhammed is not THE HOLY SPIRIT, so you are not authorized by G-D. to put anyone to death, for even insulting muhammed. since you have no way, of proving that muhammed is a false or true prophet. other than pure, mental magic.
hasatan, baal hamolech, and halooseefer, have been around a lot longer than any of you. why does not G-D, put them to death for never being true to G-D? for it is the world, that makes, hasatan, baal hamolech, and halooseefer true to them.

Update: High School AP History Book
Rewrites 2nd Amendment
Submitted by RobHino on Mon, 09/16/2013 - 02:52
Daily Paul Liberty Forum
DP Original Texas
Textbook version: "The people have a right to keep and bear arms in
a state militia."
Actual 2nd Amendment: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to
the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear
Arms, shall not be infringed."
Did you catch the sleight of hand?
A militia is a body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called
out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies. It's
a common man army of citizens, NOT soldiers. The citizens are called
up in emergencies to protect the free State.
The 2nd Amendment says that a militia is necessary to protect a free
State, so in order to be able to have a militia, the citizens have a
natural right to keep and bear arms and the government cannot
infringe on that right.
The textbook version implies that we're only allowed to keep and bear
arms if we're in a State militia, a clear misrepresentation of the 2nd

Really? Then our Muslim friends on the "Who is Allah" thread should all be put to death for their treatment of Jesus? BMW, Alex, YOU? The Christian world should put out an edict that the 3 of you should be found and sentenced to death? We know where to find you. You have allowed your whereabouts to be known. Should the Christians come knocking on your door?
Oh wait. I guess not. The Christians have a saying. Turn the other cheek. Maybe the Christians are wrong. Maybe you should be afraid of a knock on the door.

It took a suicidal poet to put Gwyneth Paltrow off celebrity and back on track.
The star of Shakespeare in Love and the upcoming literary drama Sylvia confesses she had lost the joy of acting after a decade in the celebrity spotlight.
"The whole celebrity part of it really just put a bad taste in my mouth, all the time," said the former girlfriend of Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck, currently hounded by tabloids for her relationship with Coldplay rock star Chris Martin.
It took a role like that of Sylvia Plath, who killed herself in 1963 and posthumously became a literary icon, to remind Paltrow "why I became an actor in the first place.
"I think that the experience of playing her really changed me. It was so difficult and so harrowing, but I got so much back from it, that I thought: I really don't want to waste my time doing things that are mediocre."
Her father's death, and a stint on the London stage have brought a sadder, wiser and more selective Paltrow back to the screen.
"I'd rather have two lines doing something really special than make a ton of money blowing things up, or pratfalls," she said.
Does that mean no more zipping herself up inside a fat suit, like in the oddball gross-out comedy Shallow Hal?
"Probably. I'm glad I've done everything I've done because it's all part of who I am and all part of my experience, but I have changed the way that I see things."
The poet Sylvia Plath was in her early 20s when she came to Britain from America, and was not intimidated by the shining intellects and ferocious egos of the English literary scene.
It's hard to imagine anyone better suited to the part than Paltrow, who came to England at the same age to take on the role of Emma in the film of the Jane Austen classic, accent and all.
Parents Bruce Paltrow and Blythe Danner, film producer and actress, raised Gwyneth to assume she could "do anything", she says. Danner plays Plath's mother in the film, in haunting scenes you may well see on the highlights reel at Oscar time.
But it was Bruce Paltrow's death from cancer a year ago that Gwyneth says gave her the sadness to play Plath.
"I was pretty decimated emotionally at the beginning of the film and throughout the filming. And my father's death informed everything. It was just who I was -- it was all I was.
"I think when you're suffering to the degree I was suffering during the film, and you're playing somebody who is also suffering, the overlap was quite extensive. So I felt like I had a lot of empathy and great understanding for where she was."
And her father's death changed Gwyneth's career plans, too.
"I thought, from now on I want to do things that are worth my time. Because we are all dying.... Get something out of your life and make your life worth something," she said.

A Vancouver police officer who was involved in a fatal shooting that was captured on a cellphone video won't face charges because he could reasonably argue self-defence, a special prosecutor announced Monday.
Paul Boyd was shot multiple times after police responded to a 911 call about a disturbance in August, 2007. He was bipolar and was not taking his medication at the time.
Various investigations and reviews by police and Crown prosecutors had cleared Constable Lee Chipperfield, but the case was placed under renewed scrutiny last year when a cellphone video emerged in the media.
Chipperfield had told a coroner's inquest he believed Boyd was armed with a bicycle chain when he fired the fatal shot. He also said he believed Boyd may have been wearing body armour because it appeared as though he wasn't affected by the initial shots.
But the shaky video showed Boyd crawling along the ground, no longer holding the chain, in the seconds before the ninth and final shot.
An outside agency was brought in from Alberta to conduct yet another review of the case and a special prosecutor was appointed to review the evidence.
The B.C. Criminal Justice Branch released a seven-page statement Monday explaining special prosecutor Mark Jette's decision to not charge the officer.
"If Const. Chipperfield was prosecuted for an offence alleging culpable homicide, a reasonable doubt on the issue of self-defence would require an acquittal," the statement said.
"The evidence made available to the special prosecutor in this case was that Const. Chipperfield personally believed resort to lethal force was necessary to preserve himself and others from death or grievous bodily harm."
Police were called to a report about an assault at a bus stop, though Monday's statement notes the call turned out to be inaccurate.
At first, Boyd was co-operative, according to the prosecutor's statement, dropping a hammer when police officers asked him to. However, when the officers attempted to handcuff Boyd, the situation deteriorated and Boyd swung the bike chain, hitting one of the officers.
During the confrontation, Chipperfield fired nine shots, eight of which struck Boyd.
Midway through the gunfire, the video shows Boyd had dropped the bike chain and another officer pushed it aside, the prosecutor's statement says. That officer later said he had told Chipperfield to "hold your fire," though Chipperfield and other officers at the scene said they didn't hear it.
The prosecutor's statement said the video does not tell the whole story about what happened that night.
The video starts after six shots had already been fired and doesn't show the confrontation that prompted the shooting, the statement says. The entire incident lasted less than three minutes.
While Boyd is seen on the video crawling on the ground, he moves behind a car, blocking the camera's view, before the final shot. An autopsy concluded the angle of the fatal shot indicated Boyd may have been either on his hands and knees or leaning forward while on his feet.
As for Chipperfield's belief that Boyd was still armed when the fatal shot was fired, the statement notes other civilian witnesses had the same, albeit inaccurate, recollection.
"A number of the civilian witnesses who viewed the incident involving Mr. Boyd also failed to observe a police officer remove the chain and padlock prior to the fatal shot," said the statement.
"The special prosecutor concluded that Const. Chipperfield's evidence that he failed to note Mr. Boyd being disarmed may reflect the fact that sometimes people do not see what is there to be seen."
Vancouver police Chief Jim Chu said in a statement the case was "difficult and sad for everyone involved."
"As I have said from the beginning of this tragic incident, I would like to once again extend our sincere regrets and condolences to the Boyd family for their loss," Chu said in the statement.
"No police officer ever comes to work with the intent of taking a life."Report Typo/Error

A former Iowa chemistry teacher has admitted to having sex with one of her male students in her car last year. Heather Adams, 42, pleaded guilty to one count of sexual exploitation by a school employee in Linn county Court Monday. Prosecutors say Adams had sex with an 18-year-old boy last year. The Cedar Rapids Gazette reports Adams resigned from her teaching position at Washington High School shortly after the incident after 18 years on the job.
Adams was given a deferred judgment, two years of probation, and will be listed on the sex offender registry for 10 years. If she successfully completes her probation, the conviction will be removed from her record. Adams' guilty plea came just before jury selection was supposed to start in her sexual exploitation trial. If she were found guilty, the 42-year-old could have faced up to two years in prison.
According to a criminal complaint cited by KCRG, on May 6, 2012, at around 9.30pm, police responded to a report of a suspicious vehicle parked in the 300 block of 28th Street Drive SE. Neighbors suspected some drug activity had been taking place - and were stunned when it was revealed a teacher from Washington High School had been caught having sex. When officers approached the SUV, they found a naked 18-year-old boy in the front seat of the Chevy Suburban and Adams, who was 41 years old at the time, also naked and hiding in the backseat.
The complaint said both admitted they were engaged in sexual activity. The pair were then ordered to get dressed and removed from the vehicle. Adams was arrested and charged with sexual exploitation. She resigned from her teaching position shortly after citing 'personal reasons.' Adams' teaching license is valid until 2020, according to the Iowa Board of Educational Examiners website.
Her profile on the Cedar Rapids Community School District site states that the 42-year-old teacher had taught AP psychology and chemistry, and also served as the academic decathlon coach at Washington High School. Adams wrote about herself: 'When students ask "why do we need to learn this," there needs to be a concrete answer. 'This process helped me to identify the "why" behind the curriculum I teach, making each assignment and assessment meaningful not only in my classroom, but also in the lives of each of my students. It helps redefine my role everyday [sic] and keeps me energized about the subjects- and the students- I teach every day.'
Rum Middleton wrote: »Bullshit you not... she is my Facebook friend...This is my former highschool. She was fat back in the day...I think zer lost weight now though. .

Colts running back Ahmad Bradshaw will have to wait a little while longer before practicing with his new mates. The team placed Bradshaw on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Tuesday. Bradshaw, who has dealt with a myriad of foot and ankle injuries throughout his career, underwent his latest foot surgery in January. But he told his fans on Twitter not to worry; he'll be there when it counts.
"For all y'all believers, just know tht I will b ready to rock. Come regular season," Bradshaw tweeted. "So, thank u, and keep believing. God-bless!"
Fantasy Analysis:
Bradshaw could be taken off the PUP list at any moment. Case in point, Patriots tight end Jake Ballard was activated from the list today, one day after being put on it. Bradshaw was in a walking boot last month, but he should be good to go well before the season begins. He will be the Colts' majority runner this year and is a handy RB3 or low-end RB2. He's got good value as a fifth-round pick.

Have you ever found yourself holding your laptop up in the air or over your shoulder to find the best wireless connection? If so, and your tired of looking silly in front of your friends, then T-Mobile may have a solution for you.
While Three led the way with MiFi dongles, only last August Vodafone introduced their own version and now T-Mobile want in on the act.
The T-Mobile Wireless Pointer (or MiFi dongle) is now available and will guide you to WiFi nirvana, so you no longer have to search aimlessly for that WiFi sweet spot. The Pointer, which is available on contract or pay-as-you-go, effectively points you towards the best 3G reception in your area and then creates a wireless hot spot for you and up to four other users to connect to.
The Pointer works with both Windows and Mac systems and all users have to do is search for the device and connect. Software will install itself and is automatically updated. T-Mobile claims download speeds of up to 7.2Mbps and has even included a microSD slot (up to 4GB) on the dongle to allow users to easily share files between themselves.
While T-Mobile claims 80 percent mobile broadband coverage in the UK and this device is ideal for those on the move, it still remains to be seen if it will be much of an improvement on the traditional mobile broadband dongle.
Those signing up for a 24-month contract will get the Wireless Pointer for free and pay £15-a-month thereafter. Those using the device on a pay-as-you-go basis will lay out £60 initially as well as an initial £10 top-up. Browsing will then cost £2-a-day, £7-a-week or £15-a-month depending on usage. Neither plan has a browsing limit.

Abruptly retired politician Michael Ignatieff is promising to tell all about his ignominious experience running against the ruling Conservatives and surging New Democrats as leader of the Liberal Party in the 2011 election.
Described as "candid and unexpected" and "the most difficult book he's ever written" by its publisher, Random House Canada, Fire and Ashes promises "a stirring meditation on contemporary politics and the lessons [Ignatieff] learned in defeat" when it is published this September.
One insider said the author is "extremely honest and hard on himself" in the book – an opinion shared by fellow writer-turned-politician-turned writer Mario Vargas Llosa, who provided a blurb describing Ignatieff's latest as "exceptionally insightful and honest."
He added that Fire and Ashes "is a compass that will help the reader find his or her way in the dizzying maze that politics has become in the great modern democracies."Report Typo/Error

This is a discussion on Colt 1908... within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Questions... Some time ago, I built a concealed carry rig for an attorney pal of mine who carries a 1908 Colt .380. It's a dandy ...
Some time ago, I built a concealed carry rig for an attorney pal of mine who carries a 1908 Colt .380. It's a dandy little gun, a real shooter, he says, and I am curious about some things.
Does anyone here pack one of those pistols? The .380 isn't the best round, of course, but it definitely meets the first rule of a gunfight.
If you do carry one:
What ammunition do you use?
Do you have spare magazines and were they difficult to find?
What holster do you use?
Ever had any reliability issues?
Did you buy the gun or inherit it?
I watched Humphrey Bogart blast a Nazi Sunday at the end of Casablanca with a 1908. Round up the usual suspects....
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety), by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. by H. L. Mencken
The Colt 1908 that Rcher pictured above is the more expensive of a series of three identical weapons from Colt, FN & Husqvarna. I own the Husqvarna m/1907 in 380. The original design is by John M. Browning. It is definitely an amazing shooter! I inherited mine from my father and it has the honor of being a safe-queen. My only wish, since I will not carry a 380, is that it was at least a 9mm. It is extremely thin even though it is a 5" barrel, all metal weapon.
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."
- Roy Batty
I had both a Colt 1903 .32 ACP and a 1908 .380 ACP. The 1908 was never reliable with fmj, and I sold it. On the other hand, the .32 never malfunctioned. The Colt .32 lived in the car glove box for may years, before being replaced by a CZ-82 in 9mm Mak.


text: Former Hills star, Jason Wahler gave an interview to In Touch this week and in it said he had tried to commit suicide multiple times. I remember him admitting he was an alcoholic, but I don't remember anything about him attempting suicide. He said, "I tried taking my life multiple times. About four years ago, I took more than 10 Antabuse and was rushed to the hospital. It should've killed me." I have no idea if that would kill someone or not. Perhaps some of our medical professionals could advise. I think it is great that he is opening up about it. I think now he can help others who are also feeling suicidal. Wahler says he has been sober for three years now.

Whether the smattering of rain in northern Victoria can be directly attributed to Wangaratta's jazz festival may be a matter of some conjecture, but the outpouring of music and the too-brief opening of the skies certainly coincided. Perhaps more rural festivals could be an alternative to selling Telstra and making rivers defy gravity.
The outpouring in question was unarguably the finest in the festival's distinguished 13-year history. Good music intuitively serves the community in which it is made, and even if the causality of the rain might be in doubt, certainly there was an unusually high proportion of pacifying rather than fractious music in these demented times.
Dave Douglas, just about the pre-eminent trumpeter in contemporary jazz, has been involved in a huge diversity of projects. His New Quintet is in part a Miles Davis tribute band - with a difference. From Beethoven to Picasso, transitional periods have always been fascinating, and Douglas has taken the Davis transition (around 1968) between his classic '60s quintet and the ensuing electric upheaval, and extrapolated a fresh set of possibilities.
The compositions are his own, and his slicing trumpet playing is a world away from Davis's. The link comes in the lightness, litheness, rhythmic flexibility and openness of textures generated by electric pianist Uri Caine, bassist James Genus and drummer Clarence Penn. It could eddy and swirl like a dust storm, suddenly revealing sharp outlines of melody, rhythm or structure, and just as quickly obscure them again. Over this rushed Rick Margitza's tenor saxophone and Douglas's trumpet. The latter was a ringing, joyous device, and the music was often charged with celebration.
From France came the Louis Sclavis Quintet, carrying echoes of music as diverse as Satie and Zappa. Sclavis has not just blurred the boundary between composition and improvisation, he has crushed it into irrelevance. From milling fragments patterns would form, dance, and disintegrate, the sonority of trumpet (Jean-Luc Capozzo), violin (Dominique Pifarely) and Sclavis's clarinet, bass clarinet or soprano saxophone eerily hollow. The quintet was completed by the formidable bass playing of Bruno Chevillon and the skittering drumming of Francois Merville.
As he has done overseas this year, Sydney pianist Mark Isaacs played with the stellar American rhythm section of bassist Jay Anderson and drummer Adam Nussbaum. They opened, appropriately enough, with a Stella by Starlight of stunning architectural design, the melody eventually suggested with minimal brush strokes after a tranquil pool of improvisation. The collaboration proved a fine match, with a wonderful boldness contained within the prevailing sensitivity, the whole leavened by the effervescence of Nussbaum's drumming.
Great bands universally have great drummers: players who exert control without dominating. Having already played with guitarist Peter O'Mara (which I missed), Nussbaum made a surprise appearance with saxophonist Dale Barlow's Inner Qwest Quintet, and lifted the music from what had reportedly been an ordinary first performance. With this inspiration, Barlow, pianist Mike Nock, guitarist James Muller and bassist Brett Hirst played at the peak of their considerable powers in the festival's most explosive set.
Muller's incendiary guitar-playing had been in comparable form with his own quartet (with Hirst, saxophonist Roger Manins and drummer Simon Barker). What sets him apart is that he never treads water, and, despite his ferocious facility, is primarily concerned with playing music rather than playing his instrument.
Another international collaboration saw pianist Jim McNeely, whose credits include stints with Chet Baker, Stan Getz and Phil Woods, and whose skills as a composer/arranger have blessed the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, among others, directing a 10-piece incarnation of Gai Bryant's Chart. He prefers splashes of colour to blocks of instrumentation, and created a superbly atmospheric setting for Don Rader's flugelhorn solo on A Perfect Six.
Despite an anomaly in the mixing which made his distinctive alto saxophone too trebly, Bernie McGann took flight with the uniquely swinging conception of drummer John Pochee, plus guitarist Steve McKenna and bassist Lloyd Swanton. Laconic, surging and peppered with passion, McGann's playing was a scribble of exclamations, questions, insinuations, cries, entreaties and growls.
In a shrewd move on the part of the festival's artistic director, Adrian Jackson, The Necks were presented in the billowing acoustics of Holy Trinity Cathedral, which allowed the overtones to mushroom and overlap, engendering one of the finest sets I have heard from them. The drums (Tony Buck), bass (Swanton) and especially the piano (Chris Abrahams) seemed to shed any concrete identity, with the aural illusion of further instruments rising up like phantoms and melting back into the shadows.
To be able to move from The Necks directly to Band of Five Names was almost perfect programming. Without breaking the spell, this trio of Matt MacMahon (keyboards), Phil Slater (trumpet, computer) and Simon Barker (drums) just expanded the options. There was miniaturist beauty and tumultuous washes, astringent intelligence and burning emotion all at play. These three returned in the more fiercely rhythmic setting of Baecastuff, in which Rick Robertson's tenor saxophone was sounding especially magisterial.
Shuffling the pack further, Hirst and Barker were half of Red Fish Blue, pianist Sam Keever's new band. One of the too-rare Sydney/Melbourne collaborations, this possessed a bewitching, swaying delicacy, as did the Brazilian music of guitarist Doug De Vries, which featured one of the few women at this year's festival, singer Diana Clark.
Speaking of shuffling, New Orleans singer/guitarist Mem Shannon looked a like a card-sharp as he and his band The Membership dealt a winning hand in funk to a full house in the Blues Marquee.
With his luscious tone and plentiful supply of affecting melodic ideas, flugelhorn player Peter Knight is one of Melbourne's shining lights.
His quartet pursued a decidedly romantic aesthetic, and in pianist Colin Hopkins he had a fine foil.
Hopkins was also a brilliant part of the house band for the National Jazz Awards (this year devoted to saxophonists). It was won by the sumptuous sound, keen interaction and engaging musicality of Manins, from Jamie Oehlers and Blaine Whittaker.

In Leo Tolstoy's great, and epic, novel Anna Karenina, he starts off his tome by stating: "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." For Croatians, there's a lot of history in quoting a Russian like Tolstoy.
And if you ask any Croatian what it's like to be in a world that coined the term, Balkanization, they each will tell you some version of the truth: that there is always something broken, and you can either sit around on your butt and experience it, or set to work to fix it.
For seven-time startup founder Jereslav Bobic, a BizSpark entrepreneur in Zagreb, Croatia, there is always a little bit of the sting in his words, because he feels that not enough Croatians — and really, not a lot of entrepreneurs in Central and Eastern Europe — have what it takes to keep moving, work with hunger, and iterate. We sat down for espresso in an outdoor cafe in Veradzin, Croatia, and talked of many things — from Nikola Tesla, to Anna Karenina, identity and the lack of privacy, but what I got on tape was him saying that all startups are like "broken families." They have unique problems that are each their own, and they are setting out to fix problems that only they can fix.
Here's the clip:

Stephen Strasburg hasn't faced the Pittsburgh Pirates since his sensational major league debut for the Washington Nationals nearly two years ago.
While the lights won't be as bright Thursday night at PNC Park, Strasburg looks to help the Nationals avoid a seventh consecutive road loss and a three-game sweep at the hands of the Pirates.
All eyes were on Strasburg on June 8, 2010, when he took the mound for his much-anticipated first big-league start. It's safe to say the highly touted right-hander exceeded the sky-high expectations, striking out a career-high 14 in seven dominating innings of a 5-2 victory over Pittsburgh (14-16).
Strasburg, who missed most of 2011 after undergoing Tommy John surgery since last facing the Pirates, now looks to slow down a Pirates team on the verge of its first three-game winning streak since last July 17-19. One night after prevailing 5-4 on Rod Barajas' two-run, walk-off homer, manager Clint Hurdle's club held on for a 4-2 victory Wednesday.
Andrew McCutchen matched a season high with four hits and left the yard for the second time in as many days while the bullpen allowed just one earned run over eight innings after starter Erik Bedard exited early due to back spasms.
Washington, which has scored a combined 12 runs during its six-game skid in opposing ballparks, hasn't dropped seven in a row on the road since June 15-28, 2010.
"I think guys are frustrated, not like we're out of it by any means but guys are frustrated because they know what we can do," Ian Desmond said. "We know we're a good offensive ballclub."
The Nationals, who are 5-1 when Strasburg (2-0, 1.66 ERA) pitches this season, have to like their chances of getting back on track behind their ace. Strasburg has limited opponents to a .187 average through his first six starts, fanning 38 in as many innings.
He was, however, somewhat pedestrian in most recent outing, yielding a season-high three runs - including a pair of solo homers - over six innings of Friday's 4-3, 11-inning win over Philadelphia.
"I left a couple of pitches up. It's an adjustment. It was just one of those games where they made me pay for it," Strasburg, who's stretch of 66 consecutive innings without surrendering a long ball was snapped, told the team's official website. "It was just a couple of pitches. It could have gone differently, whether they decided to swing at them or not."
Strasburg is 4-0 with a 1.29 ERA over his last seven road starts dating to his rookie campaign, allowing one or no runs in all but one of those outings.
He'll be opposed by Kevin Correia (1-2, 3.38), who's compiled a 5.56 ERA while losing his last two outings.
The right-hander was tagged for a season-worst five runs and nine hits over seven innings of Friday's 6-1 loss to Cincinnati, dropping to 1-5 over his last nine starts dating to last season.
Correia has, for the most part, held his own against the Nationals, going 3-1 with a 3.60 ERA in five career starts. Washington has hit .298 against him over those outings, though.
Correia will get his first look at phenom Bryce Harper, who's cooled off a bit. The 19-year-old outfielder has gone 3 for 18 over his last five games, dropping his average 110 points to .265.

tranny problem
Towing boat home and clutch disk gives (springs pop out). No one home to tow boat so I forced the tranny down the road.
I replace clutch and start the truck. In neutral the car is fine no noise or anything. I can not select any gear. When I try to select a gear with the truck running it will not budge. I turn the truck off, place the tranny in first and start the truck, the truck jumps like the clutch isn't engaged. Is there anything inside that could cause this? The company I bought the tranny from said to check the shifter for proper adjustment, and if not there it's in the clutch.
There has to be something else that it could be. I've been under the truck more than I can count making sure everything is right with the shifter and clutch.
Any ideas?
4 speed Saginaw tranny.
Sounds like the clutch was improperly installed or not correctly adjusted. Did you install the clutch disc with the springs to the rear? Is the linkage adjusted/bled correctly ? The trans won't shift into gear while running brcause the input shaft is still turning.
I made sure that the disk was on the right side. There was writing on the disk stating which side faced the flywheel. I placed that side facing the flywheel.
I had to buy another clutch fork. The old fork had one of the tabs broken off. The new fork doesn't slide the bearing as well as the other. I purchased the fork from a chevy dealer. The numbers from the old fork matched the new fork.
The linkage is adjusted correctly.
At this point I don't know what to do.
I thought that about the input shaft, just thought it may be something inside the tranny.
Maybe the writing was on the wrong side of the disk, which way should the springs face?
What you describe with the vehicle jumping when trying to start in gear is obvious that the input shaft is turning. That could be caused by:
1 The wrong clutch parts, causing it to not release properly. Could be wrong disc, causing the hub to hit flywheel, or too thick to be released. Possibly wrong length release bearing.
2 The disc not installed properly, with the flatter side towards the flywheel.
3 The clutch linkage not adjusted and operating properly. Usually should have about 1/4" free play at fork before feeling pressure on pressure plate.
4 Bad pilot bearing/bushing, not allowing shaft to spin in it when clutch released.
5 Flywheel improperly machined for those clutch parts.
Good luck
I wanted to thank you guys for trying to help me.
I guess I have some homework to do.
I've been trying to get this thing running for about a year now, I had a second vehicle, but it too is having problems. I though it was something to do with the tranny.
I've checked all the adjustments and they are right on. Maybe the wrong clutch. It's a Saginaw 4 speed. I use the 11" raised diaphragm style pressure plate. That's what it had on it before all went wrong. I'll post a link to a pic of what I'm using.
The pilot bearing has been hard to find. I'm using the original pilot, it looks bad from the way it looks (old), but it has just a little play when placed on the tranny shaft.
11" raised diaphragm clutch set
Does the clutch disc slide freely, on the input shaft splines. Maybe causing it to bind, and not release.
Did you change anything else, besides the clutch and pilot?
I think I found out what was causing the problem.
I burned up a disk before, I didn't have enough $ for the whole kit so I bought just the disk.
I went back to the parts store I bought the disk from.
Figured they would have it in the computer since it was a warranty item. I had them cross reference the clutch kit that's not working. Well turns out that the disk in the kit is different than the disk I bought before.
They couldn't find a kit with the disk that I needed so I bought the disk along with the kit. Putting it in tomorrow and will write to tell if it worked or not.
I installed the clutch making sure that the disk was on the right side. After installation I tried to fire the truck up. I placed the truck in first gear with truck off. When I did this I noticed that the pedal traveled half way down before I felt any resistance. I looked under the truck and saw that the clutch adjustment rod was turned all the way out, making the rod the longest it could be.
I tried to start the truck anyway and now it's stuck in first. When I turned the key it jumps forward. It seems like the clutch isn't releasing. I tried to look for a longer rod. I tried a few auto part stores but most were special order. One place had one, but the rod was way too short. The motor is out of a 72 Chevy c-10. The tranny is a 4 speed Saginaw tranny. The adjustment rod that I asked for as for a 81 el Camino, that's what everything is in. Do I need to ask for the rod from a 72 truck or is it all the same?
Am I traveling down the right path?
If everything worked before the clutch went out, what makes you think you have a linkage problem now? Do your new replacement parts look like your old ones? Was your first replacement disc the same as your original, is the current one the same, or are neither of them right? You did resurface the flywheel right? Throwout bearing spins freely?
The throwout bearing could be part of your trouble. GM used a long, and a short throwout. That would account for the bad fork geometry.
Sounds like you might have the wrong throwout bearing in it .They make a long and a short bearing.having a short one in would change angle of the fork making your adjusting rod to short.
packrat you beat me to it
The disk is the same as the original, bearing spins freely.
The diaphragm on the pressure plate looks different.
The original's diaphragm sat lower. It was raised then flat, this plate is raised in more of an arch.
The bearing looks different than the original. I don't remember the original bearing having an angle where it sits in the fork. I've seen two different bearings in different kits that I looked at. One has a round end (the original bearing looked like this), that's the bearing I have now. The other has a square shaped end. These are the only two so I guess the square type bearing is longer? That makes sense, if the bearing is longer it would contact the plate before the shorter, giving me less free play in the clutch pedal. The pedal goes down about half way before making contact with the plate. I have the rod adjusted all the way out now. Would this longer bearing take up that much slack to allow me to be able to take up that much free play in the pedal?
absolutely. A 1/4" at the bearing could be 6" at the pedal considering the geometry
I agree with cantspel. Bet you need the long bearing.
I wouldn't try a longer pedal rod. That might pull the fork so far that it slips off the bearing, and goes through you new cover diaphragm.
Going to give it a shot on Thursday.
I finally spoke to someone that works at an auto parts store who sounds like they know what they are doing.
He explained how GM made two different bearings for that setup. He took the time to pull one of the bearings(they were out of the other, and he put in an order just in case I need it). This bearing looks different than the one I have now. He told me to bring the throwout in to see if there is any difference in length between the two. After looking at the bearing he had, I remember that the original bearing looked like this one. I hope it all works out and will post when I find if it worked or not.
Thanks for the explination on the bearing vs. fork geometry!
I try to document all the problems/cures of this truck, just in case I ever sell it or run across the same problem at a later time. If it works out, thanks in advance for the addition!

Santa was good to me this year, and it\'s not even Christmas yet.
That Edge Pro beats my Lansky by miles - and I don\'t feel like I\'m going to cut my fingers off like with the Lansky. While it\'s an expensive piece of equipment, if you\'re serious about getting the perfect edge to your knives and have lots to sharpen, the Edge Pro is a good investment. I don\'t think I\'ll do it for profit like you, Tourist, but I\'ll happily sharpen for relatives and friends. Grandma\'s got to do something about that blunt turkey-cutter.

Chocolate Ice Cream
I made this recipe for a family bar b-q. We really enjoyed it, and I will make it over and over again. We had no left overs.
Delicious, yum yum
This recipe is very easy to make. The first time I tried it, it was delicious but not as creamy. So the second time I substituted 50% of the half and half with heavy cream and I found the ice cream to be more creamy. Also since I tend to make large batches, I found that storing it in small containers and thawing in microwave for a few seconds before serving helps retain the smooth and creamt texture of the ice cream. Love it and will definitely make again. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
great recipe
My 9 year old son and I made this tonight. It was pretty simple, and a huge hit. Fantastic choclate flavor. Next time I think we'll add some nuts etc...
chocolate chocolate chip ice cream
Creamy, smooth, and delicious! Very easy to make and enjoy. Great on a hot summer day, or any day!
Yummy Chocolate Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
For the chocolate lover in all of us. My dad used to make this for us as kids. We had a hand crank ice cream maker and we used to take turns cranking. We could not wait for the ice cream to be done. It was so delicious, and well worth the wait.

Emma Stone loves facial oils
Emma Stone says facial oils are a vital part of her beauty routine as without them her face would be frozen.
The actress shared the secrets to her flawless and natural-looking complexion.
Emma says she has super sensitive skin that is prone to being dry.
"My skin is chronically dry, so when I'm travelling I take Argan oil with me. I have to put oils on my skin because it feels like I can't move my face if I don't!" Emma revealed to the British edition of InStyle.
The pretty star says she is also cursed with allergies that affect her beauty regime. Emma has to be careful with products as picking the wrong kind can cause her skin to react.
"As I'm allergic to a lot of fragrances, I go for gentle natural skincare, like coconut, Argan and olive oils," she continued. "I also have a sensitivity to glycerine, which is in almost every skincare product, although it's fine in make-up because my moisturiser acts as a barrier."
Emma has recently landed a role as the face of beauty brand Revlon. The style icon shared which of the cosmetics company's items she uses on herself.
"I love Revlon's Nearly Naked make-up. It's light so my freckles show through. I also adore Revlon's Colorburst Lip Butter in Red Velvet - a lovely deep shade," she explained. "To cleanse my face, I keep it simple with Cetaphil's Gentle Skin Cleanser."

She has also been on set once before during episode 1.05 - 'I Ka Wa Mamua' (In a Time Past) just after winning bronze at the London Olympics.
Olympic medalist Clarissa Chun to appear in episode of Hawaii Five-0
Craig Sesker USA Wrestling
Olympic bronze medalist Clarissa Chun on the Hawaii Five-0 set with star Alex O'Loughlin.
Clarissa Chun has been in her share of big wrestling matches.
But the Olympic bronze medalist and World champion women's freestyle wrestler had never been in a bout quite like this.
On March 27, Chun was on a Honolulu beach dressed in a Sumo wrestling costume as she battled an opponent during filming for the popular CBS show, Hawaii Five-0.
That scene is scheduled to be shown on the next episode of Hawaii Five-0, set to air on Monday night at 10 p.m. Eastern Time/9 Central and Mountain.
"It was an awesome experience," said Chun, who grew up in Hawaii. "I had so much fun. I loved it. Everybody was great to work with. It was pretty cool to be a part of it."
Chun said Hawaii Five-0 producer Jeffrey Downer contacted her mother, Gail, shortly after Chun won a bronze medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Downer invited Chun and her family to visit the set of the show. Chun said Downer is a former wrestler who has followed her career.
Chun met a number of cast members, including Hawaii Five-O co-star Scott Caan, during her initial visit to the show's set.
Shortly after that, Chun received a phone call in February asking her if she would be interested in appearing in an episode of the show.
Chun then met the entire cast, including Grace Park and star Alex O'Loughlin, who plays Hawaii Five-0 commander Steve McGarrett. She also posed for photos with the cast members.
"They were really cool and a lot of fun to talk to," Chun said. "Everyone was really nice. Alex and Scott said they wanted to train with me in Jiu-jitsu."
Chun also had an interesting encounter with actress Michelle Borth, who plays O'Loughlin's girlfriend on the show.
"Michelle said, 'You're kind of a big deal aren't you?'" Chun said with a laugh.
Chun said she was in one scene on the show that took several hours to shoot. She had one line that was two words long.
"The scene is probably less than a minute," she said. "We did several takes because they wanted to get different camera angles and everything. I was wrestling in a Sumo costume, which was heavy and difficult to move in. My scene doesn't really have anything to do with the storyline or the case they are working on. It's just something they wanted to put in as part of the show."
Chun was paid for her appearance and she can earn royalties if the episode is shown in syndication or in other countries.
Chun said she's anxious to watch the episode on Monday night.
"I'm just curious to see how it turned out," she said. "I'm really excited to see it."
So who won the wrestling match Chun was in?
"You will have to tune in and watch," she said, "to see who won."

I have always been told... And believe that dry firing a gun is bad for it. Now as you all know the only way to disassemble a glock is to dry fire it and I have been told that glock pistols were designed to be dry fired without any damage. Is this true?

Its a non-issue with Glocks. Perfectly safe, as it is with most modern center fire guns.

...the owner's manual instructs you, under "Unloading" to dry fire it...
Individual Glock firearms have gone many many thousands of dry fire reps during draw and presentation practice with no ill effects.
Liberty Over Tyranny Μολὼν λαβέ
Just because you've been told something doesn't mean it's true. I bet your Glock manual has something to say on the subject.
Again, dry firing your Glock is just fine. No worries.
Stop whining and go do something that makes a difference!
If you think that I may be talking to you, then I am.
Just a general note or two on dry firing. With the general shift to rebounding firing pin mechanisms, and with improved metallurgy since slightly before WWII, dry-firing centerfire guns is generally no longer a problem. I would avoid dry-firing break-action long guns (especially those that sell for more than a week's pay), but repeating guns of all sorts can safely be dry-fired without fear of hurting the gun. The most common problem with dry firing appears to be broken firing pins, but that situation has been improved with better metallurgy.
Rimfires are a different story. Unless the gun has been designed for safe dry-firing, it's probably best to err on the side of caution and not dry-fire rimfire guns indiscriminately. I can say without equivocation that every Ruger rimfire made is safe to dry fire, due to foresight in design of both firing pin and chamber. By inspection, if the breech face of the gun has a cutout in line with the firing pin on the bolt, then you can be reasonably certain that dry firing won't hurt it.

...appreciate the Ruger info...been considering a couple...that 'bout nails it ...
This from a reply directly from GLOCK Firearms.
Generally, dry firing the Glock pistol is not a problem, however, when taken to excess, e.g., thousands of dry firings, Glock now recommends the use of snap-caps.
When taken to the extreme, the breech-face can be damaged.
I heard from MSNBC that Glocks are so dangerous that each time you dry fire one somebody, somewhere in the world, dies from it. Also, I heard then when you are sleeping they will sometimes sneak out of their places and try to strangle you.
Be careful my friends.
My name is Frogman46 and I'm tougher than you.
I do dry fire drills twice a week, probably around 50 trigger pulls each time - no worries, only thing to worry about is making sure IT IS unloaded. Check it, with your eye's and your finger, then put it down, pick it up and check it again, then check it again, then proceed to dry fire.
The stupidity of some people NEVER ceases to amaze me.
I just did some quick math- over 12,000 dry fires in my G36.
You can dry fire anything except rimfire.

sulfates = more shedding?
Has anybody switched from mod CG or CG and used sulfates -- I've been using Ouidad's clear and gentle shampoo (only a few times) and I feel like I have a lot of shedding for some reason. I don't know if it's just me or the shampoo or what it is -- any advice? If I can't figure it out, I think I may need cut it out of my routine and go back on CG.
It seems like when I stick with the Jessicul gls and aloeba , I have way less shedding. when I switched for a short time to sulfates, I had heavy shedding again. I think it's the sulfates too. I don't hyave any luck with any styling products though. they seem to make me shed more too. I did use magick botanicals hair gel, just about a little less than dime size ammount and it seems to work.
Thanks for the input! I was using Jessicurl too, prior to using sulfates...maybe it's because JC is so gentle and I didn't have the shedding that I switched to something harsh, causing more shedding...I don't think I want any more shedding and there isn't anything different in my life (trauma, etc.) that would cause excess shedding so I have to believe that it is the addition of the sulfates.
I had alot of shedding when I used sulfates, and I put up with it for years, it wasn't until recently I learned about harsh ingredients, I eventually cut out all sulfates and my shedding is dramatically less.
I have dry/sensitive skin and scalp. I could kick myself for not realizing my scalp could be the same as my skin sooner.
I think I'll go back to my Suave Aloe co-wash and B&A gel! I want to keep as many hairs on my head as I can :)
cympreni, I'm so glad you figured out what was causing your hair to shed too!
just to be different but i felt that i shed more hair when cowashing, as the intense scrubbing of my scalp must have loosened more hair. now i gently scrub my scalp a wee bit then use either a mild cleanser or sulfate once every 2 weeks and i'm shedding a lot less. although it could be because winter's here and i've got my winter coat :roll:
Thanks Jenny! I hear ya...I thought that would be the case w/me too; maybe it is just winter and my hair is shedding more with or without sulfates...I am going to go back to co-washing and see if I notice a difference at all.
PS--I always enjoy looking at your pics--your hair is so pretty!
awh thanks hockemom :) i'm going through some experimentation with arc angell and the CJ banana and hibicus at the moment so i'm kinda up and down about my hair. also the awful wind and rain we've been having is doing NOTHING for my hair unless the windswept dragged-through-a-hedge-backwards look is in :roll:
i love your hair too - especially in your avatar pic, the contrast in blonde and brown really shows the curls! when i go home for winter i'm getting more blonde highlights and my hair layered, so excited i hope it goes ok!
Same here JF I shed more with Co washes. It finally stopped recently so maybe I just loosened what was gonna shed but my hair is way thinner now. I was just sayign on another thread I hope it is busy all growing back in now!
I swear if nature wants us to shed like a dog they need to gives us as much hair as one! :lol:
medusa, i was quite worried when i started CG and cowashing as i really felt my hair thinned out. .its fine hair but i've always had LOADS of it (theres a pic of me when i was 15 in my fotki, its HUGE) but i felt like there just wasnt as much hair there any more. but it seems to have stopped shedding now, all i get is the normal amount per wash. maybe i was scrubbing too hard :?
Yeah the scrubbing too hard is what I was thinking about me too. And I would detangle before my hair got seaweedy. I figured that out after a few days though.
I'm not sure what it was but I hope it doens't come back. My hair is def thinner. I was like you, fine hair but lots of it.
When I wash now though just a few hairs will shed so whew I'm back to normal yay!
medusahair, what poo's are you using? I used the elucence shampoo today to get rid of any cones, etc. (although I don't think I have been using any)...but just to start with a clean slate...
I would like to mostly co-wash with an occasional gentle poo, maybe one without sulfates...I have HCC too, which I like...maybe I'll also see if there's a good one by Aubrey Organics or Avalon. Why oh why am I such a PJ.
Right now I"m using Cream of Nature. I use no poo too and embs if I feel I need it.
The cream of nature is at least affordable and easy to find.
We're raised in a consumer society, embrace it :lol: I used to reward myself with a dinner out. Apparently I deserved way too many rewards so now it's the hair products :D
I totally agree medusahair!! It's kinda like the kid who always gets a candy bar when they go to the store for being good!! LOL
hmm ive noticed increased shedding too and over the past year my hair has really thinned out. it might have something to do with me being in my first semester of college but im wondering if its the products im using.
i don't know how to tell if i have sulfates though but here's what i'm using: GF curl and shine shampoo, HE TT conditioner, GR curl and shine leave in, GF soft curls cream, and LA Looks curl look gel
i would really love my hair to be thicker like it used to be...
hmm ive noticed increased shedding too and over the past year my hair has really thinned out. it might have something to do with me being in my first semester of college but im wondering if its the products im using.

oops double post
I lvoe the curl and shine products but I can't use the shampoo, it has demithicone in it and that's a hard one for me to get out. My hair sucks up somethings and won't let go. That shampoo does have sodium laural sulfate in it.
I love the rest of that line though, good stuff and my hair loves it!
By the way, never scrunch your hair too close to your root. Trust me on this :lol: Hair will fall, oh yes it will fall
