Justin Bieber, 'Under the Mistletoe' – Album Review
Christmas is "Bieberized" this season with the teenage dream's first holiday set, 'Under the Mistletoe.' It's a mixed bag of new tunes, as Justin Bieber delivers a familiar fare of standards and classics. He takes liberties with some and is loyal with others! Overall, he's all grown up — with a deeper voice that delivers sexier, more romantic lyrics encased in festive songs full of bells and whistles, literally.
The album is also rife with guest appearances, furthering its mass appeal. There's something for everyone on 'Under the Mistletoe,' as The Biebs has invited stars from the R&B (Usher), country (The Band Perry), rap (Busta Rhymes) and diva (Mariah Carey) world to participate. It's a smart marketing move, further casting the net to fans of other genres who might not be Beliebers … Yet.
Sonically, though, the most notable thing about 'Under the Mistletoe' is the growth and maturity of The Biebs' voice. His vocals have deepened, and save for a scant few exceptions, you won't find the higher registered teenage style we experienced on his previous releases. He's on stronger footing, positioning himself as a viable R&B singer — complete with PG lyrics.
Thanks to the universal, genre-free appeal, 'Under the Mistletoe' is at once classic and modern — did you ever think you'd hear the colloquial term "shawty" used in a festive, holiday jingle? — but our boy Biebs handles himself well.
1. 'Only Thing I Ever Get for Christmas'
The album begins with an uptempo, R&B-flecked love song about being satisfied with what you have, like the girl you love, during the holiday season. Here is where The Biebs' is shifting towards the Justin Timberlake vocal model. It's sprinkled with some festive cheer, too. [Listen here]
2. 'Mistletoe'
The Biebs uses the word "shawty" when singing about gathering around the fire, roasting chestnuts and following his heart like the Wisemen followed a star. His R&B vocals assert themselves again in this dreamy, almost reggae-style song, with a melody similar to Jason Mraz's 'I'm Yours.' We're not in The Biebs' age group, but our knees would buckle if he sang this to us. Without the lyrics, though, you'd never know this was a holiday song! [Listen here]
3. 'The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)' Feat. Usher
With the help of his mentor Usher, Bieber puts a butter smooth stamp on a classic. Usher lets his protoge take center stage, as Bieber's rich and silky voice is the showpiece among the harmonies, finger snaps and a bluesy guitar riff. [Listen here]
4. 'Santa Claus Is Coming to Town'
This fun holiday fave gets a modern, funkdafied update courtesy of Bieber and his boundless teenage energy. Teens will be cranking this for their high school holiday parties. Don't be surprised if you find yourself grooving, as well. [Listen Here]
5. 'Fa La La' Feat. Boyz II Men
No, this is not an update of 'Deck the Halls,' although the familiar hook does show up in the song. It's slow and sexy R&B jam where The Biebs harmonizes with Boyz II Men, telling a loved one that their heartbeat is like a melody. Swoon. Biebz II Men in the '11, yo! [Listen Here]
6. 'Christmas Love'
Sleigh bells ring in this warm and fuzzy lovers ditty, where The Biebs celebrates the fact that a loved one is better than any gift. He samples lyrics from Christmas standards, but it's not quite a mashup. It's still cute how he pulls lyrics from 'Santa Claus Is Coming to Town' and 'Deck the Halls.' He also shows off the breadth of his vocal range courtesy of some dynamic harmonies. [Listen Here]
7. 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' – Duet With Mariah Carey
Bieber tackles Mariah Carey's modern classic, which was a huge hit for her in 1994, when he was one step beyond the twinkle in his father's eye! It was a vocal workout for him to sing in the same key as Carey (per her request); but JB and Carey make a striking pair … Musically speaking. No worries for Nick Cannon. We gotta be honest. We like the newer, silkier, smoother, R&B'ier Bieber! [Listen here]
8. 'Drummer Boy' Feat. Busta Rhymes
Pa rum pum pum pum. The Biebs takes the most liberty and artistic license with his re-do of the normally mild 'Little Drummer Boy.' He twists the song into a yard stomping rap song with a beat that won't quit. It is based on 'LDB' and he is a percussionist, so you do the math. Busta Rhymes rapid-fires his lyrical parts. As much as it raises eyebrows on paper, it works, especially when JB encourages his fans to donate during the holidays. [Listen Here]
9. 'All I Want Is You'
The holidays are always a ripe time for making amends, so this song laments the loss of a love one, starting out as a maudlin, melancholic offering before escalating into a speedier at track with a looped beat. It's a Christmas party pooper — nobody wants to be left out in the cold. [Listen Here]
10. 'Fa La La (A Capella)' Feat. Boyz II Men *
We want to rechristen this 'Fa La La-capella,' since that's what it is. The Biebs and the Boyz reprise an earlier song, and it's all about their voices and their harmonies. The Boyz are perfect backup singers.
11. 'Christmas Eve'
Chris Brown penned this slick, silky and layered R&B song and The Biebs offers up his best Brown impression. It's the most mature and romantic song on the album and also features our boy wonder Justin going low, low, looooooooooooooow here and there. There's also lots of studio treatment to his vocals. Presents? Who needs presents when you got your shawty! [Listen Here]
12. 'Home This Christmas' feat. The Band Perry
Thanks to twangy guitars and three-part harmonizing, Bieber and TBP inject 'Under the Mistletoe' with a little below the Mason-Dixon line energy. It's another song about battling the elements (and life) to get home and into the arms of the one you love, who will be holding the door open with one hand and will have a cup of peppermint hot chocolate in the other. [Listen Here]
13. 'Silent Night' *
Bieber delivers a loyal take on this golden oldie, and it's really the most respectful way he could have addressed such a holy, spiritual song. Backed by just a whimsical piano, his voice also goes higher than the rest of the album. It's quite beautiful. It ain't broke, so he didn't try and fix it or tamper with a classic. Even your grandparents would love this. Nice work, JB. [Listen Here]
14. 'Pray' *
The song is quiet, contemplative and examines the spiritual side of Christmas, with Bieber reminding us to pray for the brokenhearted. The Biebs is an avowed Christian — remember his VMAs speech? — so he is also using his holiday album to remind people WHY we celebrate Christmas.
15. 'Someday at Christmas' *
Turn the clocks back, not because Daylight Savings Time is upon us but because this is a throwback to The Ghost of Bieber past. While most of 'Under the Mistletoe' is a showcase for his maturing voice, this is classic, young and innocent Biebs. He's cherubic when he sings this Stevie Wonder classic. It's like watching the evolution of Michael Jackson from 'I Want You Back' to 'Billie Jean,' only with a few icicles forming on his bangs! [Listen here]

hot water from the boat engine
OK I just instald a new force 10 hot water heater, and it takes 1.5 hours of motering to get the water worm. not hot just worm. both hoses from the engine are very hot. you could not hold eather for long. dose any one else have a heater that takes this long????
hot water from the boat engine
surly some one must have a coment on how long it takes there hot water to heat up from motoring
hot water from the boat engine
My Yamar 2GMF takes < 1/2 Hr to heat 5 Gal. HWT.
hot water from the boat engine
In my experience 1.5 hours is way too long and by then the water should be scaldingly hot. You may have some sort of problem with the plumbing and/or engine.
hot water from the boat engine
Had a similar problem on my boat. You may have an "air lock" if the heater is higher than the engine. I bled the air out of mine and this seemed to do do the trick. FYI - Check the hose temp at the hot water heater - mine was hot too where each end connected to the engines coolant system but the hoses were cooler by the heater.
Good luck
hot water from the boat engine
so how long dose it take for your water to get hot. and how did you bleed the system.
hot water from the boat engine
i bled the system by opening the overpressure valve on the fresh water side and just let the engine circulate the water until the air was bled out of the ststem. if your tang is highte than the engine you might have to add a bleeed valve to the coil side of the heater.
my engine takes about 30 minutes to heat 12 gallons of water to 180 degrees.
fair winds,
hot water from the boat engine
It takes me 45 minutes or so to get hot water if I''m running the engine just to make hot water. (Rarely) Quicker when I''m motoring somewhere. I bled the system by installing a valve in the coolant loop up at the heater (highest point). Then when I change coolant I can bleed the air from the system.
Best of luck
hot water from the boat engine
I was just at my boat and the hoses get very hot very quikly under power, mabe 7 minuts or so and thay are hot right up to the water heater. I think that mabe the force 10 heater just has a crapy heat exchanger and it takes forever. I ran under hevy power for around 15 minuts and there was no real diferance in water tempature. any outher force 10 persons out there.
Re: hot water from the boat engine
Eric said: "i bled the system by opening the overpressure valve on the fresh water side and just let the engine circulate the water until the air was bled out of the ststem."
I'm having a problem bleeding my hot water tank to get my engine coolant to circulate through it to make it work. I'm thinking I have air in the engine coolant line and I need to bleed the system. I tried opening the lines going from the engine to the tank and from the tank back to the engine. I got coolant to flow from both lines at the W.H. but still they won't heat up at the water heater. I also tried opening the over pressure valve and letting water drain from it, but it didn't show any air in the water line so I shut it off. I also tried opening the hot water faucets (maybe not long enough) but they also didn't show any air coming out.
My question is "how can opening the fresh water pressure relief valve, or even the hot water faucets, affect the engine coolant line?" They are two different lines. I was told to open the coolant intake and exhaust lines until coolant came out without air, which I did, but that didn't work either. The heater was working well until I drained it and disconnected it from the engine for the winter (big mistake).
any help would be appreciated.

When creating pdf's using iplot every now and then I get 'extra' Plot Name' files in the list.
Does anybody know what iplot is looking at to create these files?
Thank you
Most likely you are using an IPLOT settings file to define the plot area. More than one plot area is being found therefore resulting in multiple sheets appearing in InterPlot Organizer. If you preview the other sheets, what do they looking like? If they are the same as the first sheet, one possiblity is the settings file is looking for a shape and the shape exists mutliple times.
In reply to Dawn Clark Gentry:
Thanks Dawn, I did find one shape in a reference file (that had no business being there). I can't find the other one but I'll keep looking.
I'd like to ask you more question, I have taken a look that .set file and notice that a line that looks like a border file is commented out -- #area_file=[bdf,BORDER,border]............ is this refering to the logical name? if you'd like to see the whole file I can send it to you but if that's beyond what this site is about, no worries.
Thanks for your help!
The strings given for area_files should be either actual design filenames (without directory names), logical names (IPLOT_ALL, IPLOT_R1, etc.), or reference file logical names. In your example, I would say it is looking for the reference file logical names. If this line is preceded by a # then it would be commented out and not used. I am guessing your settings file is ASCII not binary.
Ok, the settings file is not binary.
One last iplot question :-| I swear!!! when using iplot through projectwise we have an problem of linestyles not coming through in pdfs or prints. In the attached image iplot doesn't display any line styles and microstation does (as usual). The D.O.T. sent out memo where it told 'us' to add a line of code into the iplotsrv.cfg file. I added it but it didn't work this time. I had added the line to the older version of iplot I was using but had to upgrade iplot to SS4 recently.
Any ideas on where I should look next to resolve this linestyle issue?
Thanks again for your help
Are you using managed workspaces in ProjectWise or local workspaces? If you plot the same data outside of Projectwise, do you get your linestyles?
In general, if using a managed workspace in ProjectWise and the dgn displays correctly when opened from ProjectWise in MicroStation, IPLOT should pick up the workspace information as well and plot correctly. One instance when this may not occur is when the MicroStation set as the print engine is not integrated correctly with ProjectWise or not the same MicroStation used to display the file when opening from ProjectWise. A good test is to open Microstation from the menu or desktop, do you get prompted to log into ProjecWise?
If using local workspaces, is it possible that you are using some other configuration when opening MicroStation such as a shortcut referencing a -wc option? If you are using a customization for MicroStation, you have to make this same information available to Interplot by defining this same information in iplot.cfg, IPLOT_MSENGINE_OPTIONS.

Christian Crumlish and Erin Malone
As soon as we saw Erin Malone and Christian Crumlish's new book, Designing Social Interfaces, we knew you'd want to hear about their rich collection of social patterns and principles. An outgrowth from creating the Yahoo! Design Pattern Library, the book is a perfect repository for anyone planning, designing, and building social aspects into their applications.
The core fundamentals of people wanting to share, people wanting to connect to people, people wanting to feel like they have a social space to be a part of, aren't going to change. —Erin
We're excited to have both authors with us on the UIE Web App Masters Tour and we made sure to schedule this podcast with them so we could discuss the realm of social interfaces.
Jared Spool discusses several points with Erin and Christian, including,
- How the book became a huge collection of social design elements and how people are using Designing Social Interfaces in the wild
- Could a better understanding of social design patterns have helped Google launch Buzz with less blowback?
- Expecting to build a community on your site, versus leveraging existing communities (for example, Facebook Connect)
- The growth of social in new contexts (mobile, new audiences)
We tried to drive down to a bedrock level of principles of human behavioral drives and needs and tradeoffs that are fundamental to the dynamics of the system. If there are new trends… that part can be updated without throwing out the idea that you need to model people in your system. —Christian
Tune in for more from Erin and Christian, and join all of us at the Web App Masters tour to hear their Designing the Social In session, where they'll highlight many real-life examples to kick start your app's social life.

text: Gates referred to foreign policy decisions throughout American history as a "constant blending of realism and idealism." He also looked back on his days as a CIA professional and his time as the agency's director, saying that most of the work of the CIA is much less dangerous than movies portray."It is hours and days of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror," he said. Day Two of The Forum began with renowned speaker and author Mark Sanborn, who spent his session fleshing out the principles from his book The Fred Factor. He told the story of how his postman Fred in Denver went the extra mile in customer service from the first day Sanborn moved to the city and how Fred's attitude can be applied by leaders in dealing with their workers or customers. "(Fred) said he worries about one thing at the end of the day," Sanborn said. "Did I waste any of the day I just finished?" Sanborn gave four-and-a-half principles that can help leaders to take advantage of the Fred Factor, including four ways for an organization to increase its number of "Freds:" Find them, Reward them, Educate them, Demonstrate his attitude yourself. He closed by encouraging leaders to love what they do, who they do it with, and for whom they do it. "Love is a commitment to treat people with dignity and respect, regardless of how you feel about them or how they make you feel," he said. Filmmaker, producer, speaker, and write Phil Cooke followed Sanborn, calling on his experience to advise leaders how best to communicate their message and control the public's perception of their organization. Cooke emphasized originality, visibility, the power of a name, and simplicity during his session, while giving real-world examples of organizations that didn't follow those principles. He also encouraged leaders to make sure they know their own story first before trying to share it with others.

I had a lousy weekend. I glared at Yahoo 360 which has pushed me into dropping their blog entirely since it is no longer functional and which can't be moved anywhere to be functional again. It wasn't fun trying to learn new systems, either.
I finished my first pet guardian angel into an ornament. Guess I should be pleased that I didn't glue my hair to it or to the kitchen counter but finishing makes me grumpy.
I ran out of my favorite coffee beans and had to fall back on my second favorite.
My husband ran over my favorite rose bush with the mower. Grrrrrrr.
Then things looked better--I discovered New Needlepoint.com which is subtitled Needlepoint in the 21st Century. It's an unusual store--you buy the outlined patterns (many of them graphic lettering or bargello or repeat designs) and choose your own colors. Color is the emphasis, not fancy stitches. Some of the things there are from Patt & Lee, the Gossipping Geishas canvas designers. So not everything is from Marianne Herself but they all follow the newest trend which is personal choice for the stitcher.
I have been happily reading Marianne's blog. I'll start you out on her essay on color, which for once actually makes sense. Color theory usually doesn't really seem clear when I read about it, but Marianne has a way of explaining it that is plain talking and I think I know what she means. And like all good blogs, she gives you glimpses of her personality. I'll be back there to keep an eye on what she's up to.
Wonder what 64 Hearts would look like in shades of purple with metallics...?
Jane, looking at the Mae West quote above and suddenly feeling better!

It looks like the White House is trying to avoid giving the impression of President Obama vs. Moammar Gadhafi.
Obama has not spoken in public about Gadhafi's attacks on his citizens since Wednesday, and even then he took a low-key approach because Americans were still in Libya.
In recent days, Obama has used surrogates to get out more aggressive criticisms of the Libyan dictator, calling for his removal and challenging his sanity.
The president has not called for Gadhafi to leave Libya on camera but did make such a comment via the readout of a phone call with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton echoed that comment in a written statement and to reporters en route to Switzerland to meet with global counterparts about sanctioning Libya.
Yesterday, Obama declined to speak with reporters before or after his meeting with United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon -- but he sent his U.N. ambassador, Susan Rice, to the White House press room, where she called Gadhafi "delusional."
"And when he can laugh in talking to American and international journalists while he is slaughtering his own people, it only underscores how unfit he is to lead and how disconnected he is from reality," Rice said of Gadhafi.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said "presidential action comes in many different ways," and Clinton, Rice and others have been effective in building pressure on Gadhafi and the Libyan regime.
As for Obama, "you can be sure that he has been incredibly active in dealing with this, as have all the principal members of the national security team," Carney said.
"I'm sure the president will address this issue again," he said.

Unix beardies sue BSI over OOXML
A BAND OF BRITISH British Unix beardies has issued a High Court challenge over the national approval of Microsoft's OOXML document standard.
The UK Unix User Group has demanded a judicial review over the British Standard's Institute's backing of Microsoft's document standard in its application for fast-track approval by the International Standards Organisation.
The UKUUG has demanded the BSI withdraw its vote in support of Microsoft, and revisit its own decision again to back the software giant's standard.
The beardies maintain that the procedure by which the BSI decided to support Microsoft's standard was flawed, and that the ISO vote to fast-track OOXML was void.

ZA Cities TLDs
The dotCapeTown, dotDurban, and dotJoburg (ZA dotCities) domains entered General Availability from the 04th November 2014. This means anyone can now submit a domain name application through the Accredited Registrars to ZA Central Registry (the ZA dotCities registry operator). The ZA dotCities are a .ZA initiative, and funded from .ZA revenue. ZADNA is responsible for project and policy oversight, marketing & awareness, and stakeholder relations.
The ZA dotCities are positioned to complement .ZA and to serve as local alternatives to .ZA. ZA Central Registry (ZACR), an appointed to provide a centralized registry platform for several ZA Second Level Domains was appointed by ICANN to launch and operate the ZA dotCities domains. All the 3 domains launched their sunrise and land rush domain name application phases in July 2014, and entered the general availability (first-come, first-served) phase on 4 November 2014.
The ZA dotCities are a collaboration involving ZADNA, ZACR, the South African Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services (DTPS) and city municipalities of Cape Town, Durban and Joburg.
ZADNA's involvement in ZA dotCities
As the only statutory domain name authority in South Africa reporting to the South African government and advising the government on domain name and related policy issues, ZADNA played a key role in securing the support and endorsement of the ZA dotCities by the Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services (DTPS) and the 3 city municipalities. It also played an active role in the ICANN application process, and the subsequent reserved name list process (that allowed the 3 municipalities to pre-register domains names of their choice) and in overseeing and supervising ZACR's development of the ZA dotCities policies.
ZA dotCities Policies
ZACR has developed the following ZA dotCities published policies:

Exercise does not increase contrast sensitivity
Woods, Russell L., Wood, Joanne M., & Jack, Michelle P. (1997) Exercise does not increase contrast sensitivity. Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 80(5), pp. 173-177.
The contrast sensitivity of 19 healthy normal subjects was measured before and immediately after 10 minutes of controlled exercise on an exercise bicycle. Contrast sensitivity was measured with an adaptive procedure, which is relatively free of decision criteria effects and the rate of false positive responses was recorded. Ten of these 19 subjects then formed a control group, where contrast sensitivity was measured before and after a 10-minute period of rest.
We found no change in either contrast sensitivity or the false positive response rate after exercise. Similarly, there were no changes after the period of rest in the control group. Hence, previous reports of improved contrast sensitivity resulting from exercise, which have used a less robust psychometric method to measure contrast sensitivity, may have measured a change in the subject's decision criteria rather than a change in contrast sensitivity.

Opinion on Salvage title cars, my friend is looking at one but

I drive a salvage title. However mine got stollen in Tennessee. I also had it inspected really well. They can be dreams for a great price (mine,) or an absolute nightmare. He needs to get it checked out and figure out what exactly totaled it. It is not hard to total cars that are over 3-4 years old. If it was all cosmetic (bumpers, fenders, bent wheels) go for it. If it was any sort of frame damage electrical or engine failure I'd stay away. I have actually been looking at buying an e60 M and with ~50k miles I'd say 30 ish would be a good price bit a salvage title really hurts the value of a car and can cause insurance problems. Regaurdless of how nice the car is after the total loss the seller must realize the extra hassel it can cause a buyer. I may be wrong but I think the accepted fair price for a salvage car is 70% or the actual value. That is how I got a great 330Ci with 80k for $7.5K

Forgive me if this is dumb sounding, this is like my second post ever or so. But I've been on this site reading anything and everything on cracking a wep key. Took me forever to figure out how to get through my own router... finally one day everything clicked. Posts made sense and same with videos (thank you xploitz- you're my hero). My question now is, after I am through my own wep key- i want to keep learning more. Where would a newer guy start? How do i step it up to the next level? Browseing through my desktop connected to that router?
"The goal of every man should be to continue living even after he can no longer draw breath."
P.s. you guys have a great community here. Just awesome! Any other semi simple projects to read up on?
Sniffing is relatively easy, so I'd suggest messing with dsniff and associated tools.
I'd recommend going the way of ettercap and doing some basic packet sniffing. Try and do some image/file replacement type of scenerios etc.
Also, if you haven't already looked into them, I highly recommend doing the De-Ice courses. You will learn loads if you are just starting out. They are a pretty priceless learning aid and can help you quickly get a grasp on what it is we do.
"The goal of every man should be to continue living even after he can no longer draw breath."
alright, figured out how to do the arp poisoning. (thats some dangerous stuff if in the wrong hands) now what else we got to do? i'm sure i could figure it out but you guys got another way to bring it up to the next step? a way to browse my other computer's internals? almost like a remote admin. if that sounds like a "bad" thing to do then it doesn't have to be answered. i'll understand.
appreciate the responses shadowkill. I kind of looked at them, but with a job and going full time for electronic and industrial automation i'm not sure if i'll have all the time in the world. (or any money right now... it's cheaper to sit at home and read remote-exploit forums all night

Some great ideas here, thanks - have subscribed to this thread so I can refer back to it when I have a refurb to do.
There's also a very good blog entitled "Repair-free Rentals" written by a builder/landlord whom I know through another forum. Google it and it'll come up.

Battle in my mind
Honestly, no one knows the constant battles in my head. There are three personas: I call them Joy, Sadness and Anger, all speaking at the same time; all telling stories and trying to solve puzzles. They can all dream and they all reminisce deeply; all at the same time.
They cannot be controlled. Music and drama speak to them, but even these distractions are sometimes mere toys for my 'multiple minds'.
It is hard to grasp the idea of my mind; I'm sorry 'minds', much less explain them; ideas are constantly shifting. My mind is a maze and each turn is a puzzle; each puzzle is a porthole to another puzzle and every answer comes with a contract. My mind is constantly on fire, uncontained and I'm not going to try it can't be tamed.
It is this fire that builds me. I can swiftly convince one mind to agree with the other, but I can never shut any of them off. They help me write and view stories from different angles. They help me speak and take into account what everyone wants to hear. They help me dream and to build from a perspective where all can be appreciative. They help make others happy by understanding their differences and of course manipulating that knowledge.
Many people have two processing patterns, logical – controlled by the left brain hemisphere: language, logic, analytic, numerical, critical thinking, reasoning; and illogical – controlled by the right brain hemisphere: emotions, music, recognising identities, images, arts and creativity, colours and images, intuition. We all have that mind battle with the two but what happens when the hemispheres in your brain create three distinct bodies which co-exist?
I should be able to say I'm lucky to have multiple consciences. I defy the laws of nature. We're only supposed to have one logical voice talking but I have three all telling me three sides to one story; sometimes three stories to one side. But how am I lucky when I am constantly overthinking and drawing worlds in my head. In literature they call this conflict man versus self, and metaphysics corresponding with philosophy is correct by perpetuating mind over matter, but mind controls the matter and sometimes mind can be matter.
They never tell me to do bad things, these personas. They just want answers to every bit of life. They want to solve puzzles and play games to create a world they would be pleased with. What I can't understand is why they all must talk all at once.
And if you think I'm crazy then of course your mind can only see one reasoning when mine can see three, it is one voice with three opinions based on the effects of happiness, sadness and anger – not necessarily my emotions but the emotions of the general surroundings. This allows me to transform myself into any being, no not a completely different personality but to shift into the temperature of the environment, making one mind dominant over the other. And that is what I don't get: how can one's environment significantly change the way one processes thought? Mind over matter or matter over mind? Ha! They laugh.
Mind games my ex-friends call it. Yes, ex, because my mind threw them into the maze of my three thought processes and spat them out in disgust when they no longer intrigued me. Some can understand it and forgive me but others grow tired of the constant bewildering.
I sit now and allow them to write freely as I try to understand them, not once did I stop to think about what I'm writing. I'm sure my editor can see the difference from time to time. I'm sure she would be baffled as to what I am actually presenting now. I don't even know if this will be published. See how many thoughts went through all at once as my fingers stroked the keyboard?
My head hurts, not physically but trying to grasp ideas I can never singly understand. And no one can understand why, not even any of my minds, that are in a constant battle that can either build me or build me, but will never break me, because I embrace them all

It's a shame that such a talented lawyer -- and engaged thinker -- as Alan Dershowitz has become little more than a self-appointed consigliere for high society's better-known scumballs and bottom-feeders. But you have to hand it to the defender of such lowlifes as Leona Helmsley, Michael Milken, Claus von Bulow, Mike Tyson, New York slumlord Rabbi Bergman, and O.J. Simpson: like the Energizer Bunny, he just keeps on going, defending the indefensible whether it be in court, on "Nightline," in front of his Harvard Law School classes, or between the covers of quickie books. And though Alan Dershowitz has become one of those lawyers society is growing to hate, he makes a good case that in our constitutional system, someone has to do it.
In Reasonable Doubts, Dershowitz, hired as O.J. Simpson's "God forbid" appeals lawyer, adds little to what the more careful followers of the "crime of the century" already know. He effectively summarizes what was wrong, from a jury's point of view, with the prosecution's case: the knowing use of perjured testimony from members of the LAPD, the embrace of maniacal bigot Detective Mark Fuhrman, blood evidence that was often curious at best and tainted at worst, and the over-reliance on prior domestic abuse as a sufficiently persuasive motive for murder.
Interestingly, Dershowitz makes little attempt to establish O.J.'s innocence (in fact, one suspects he thinks him probably guilty), but persuasively argues that the jury was given plenty of ammunition for reasonable doubt. That jury may have contained some of the dumbest people on the planet, but Dershowitz asks what any of us would have done as jurors faced with the incredible amount of obviously hinky and incompetent behaviour by L.A's finest.
Gossip? None. Dershowitz lavishes praise on Robert Schapiro for laying down the pre-trial strategy -- hiring the best technical experts in the country, concentrating on the forensic weaknesses of the case -- which enabled the defense to outthink and outsmart the prosecution at virtually every turn. And he excoriates Marcia Clark for what he says was her often unethical and hysterical behaviour in Lance Ito' s courtroom. He also provides some Criminal Law 101 style lectures which the reader will either find educational or tiresome.
Lessons? Not as many as the book's hype will lead you to believe. Basically, says Dershowitz, all is well with the U.S. legal system. Such bromides may not convince those appalled by the O.J. travesty.
Dershowitz does concede that it would be nice if indigent defendants were afforded the same kind of representation as O.J. And he hammers hard for one reform: the need to root out the kind of police perjury that occurs routinely in criminal cases, and that in this particular case, probably enabled a guilty man to walk free. -- Salon

Nissan Altima 2001 bad intake manifold gasket ..recall?
I bought a Nissan Altima 2001 on Jan 4,2010
With all the excitment I had because my son and wife wanted a car so badly, I did not notice this problem until next day and I said nah...can be...I am just being aprehensive
Next day my son reported the same problem
Next day my wife reported too
This is the problem: Whenever the car is a any intersection it idles rough, like it the engine is going to stop working (never happens)
If I put in Neutral there is no problem, or when I am driving it.
Called my good friend mechanic, check it, and said it was the acelerator cable, too tight he said ($45 gone)
It worked fine for the next day, then the CHECK ENGINE sign appeared.
He came back next week and checked and found a PO171 code and told me he would investigate more on this code since it could be anything from manifold gasket or CO leaking gas mix
Then I found this site and other ones that suggest that may Nissan Altima have the exact same problem INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET
Any more Nissan owners with the same problem?
It looks like a manufacturing problem that Nissan should fix.
Don yo think? With this bad economy we don't need to be ripped by big companies I think we need help and understanding from them.
Thank you!!

I'm on the Kissimmee Chain getting ready for the first Southern Open of the year. The weather has been fantastic here. For the past couple of weeks it's been well above normal, temperature wise. Somebody said it's averaged about 10 degrees above where it should be. I believe that. This trend is supposed to continue through next week.
That's had a real impact on the fishing. The other day I caught a 6-5 and a 9-12 on back-to-back casts. I don't care where you're fishing that says something about a fishery. Along the same line of thought, there was a small tournament that went out of Toho this weekend. It was won by a local guy who had a five fish bag that weighed 32 pounds. I don't think 20 pounds got you a check.
Based on all of what I'm seeing I'd say you better stand by for what's about to happen. Unless the bass move on and off the beds before the tournament starts I'm saying we could see near record weights at the end of the month, especially when you stop to think that this one is full of Elite Series guys and local anglers who know how to get on them.
Really, though, all of Florida is that good. I'm always amazed at the size — and numbers — of bass a fellow can catch from the little ponds that are around here. Some of them are so small you can cast all the way across them. No matter, they produce big bass. It's amazing.
That's why I say every so often that if you can you should come down to this area and do some fishing. It doesn't cost a ton of money, either. You can drive with a few friends, pack some food with you and find an inexpensive motel for surprisingly little money.
Enough of how great Florida bass fishing is. The real thing for Charlie Hartley is to put something together that'll produce measurable weight. I think I'm doing that. Now, that's not a prediction of anything it's just that I've been applying myself the way I talked about a couple of weeks ago. It might be working.
It's tough, though. My biggest problem is that I'm a fishing addict. To give you an example of how bad I am…the other day I had to take Tracey's parents to the airport. OK, you say. Yes, except that I wanted to fish so badly I got up early that morning and walked around the community with my rod in my hand looking for small ponds to throw at.
When you first hear that it doesn't sound so bad. But consider that I've been down here for weeks fishing every single day. You'd think that I could stay away from it for a few hours — it's not like I wasn't going to be able to fish after I came back from the airport—but I couldn't. I just had to go fishing.
Next week I'll tell you a great angler story.

The issue concerning continued building of housing in West Bank settlements continues to create a bridge between the United States and Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Obama's special envoy, George Mitchell, that his government would not halt what he termed "natural growth" of housing in the settlements. He also expressed the view, "Israel is working to promote peace and security with our Palestinian neighbors and the wider Arab world." However, the refusal on the part of Netanyahu to even say he was in favor of an independent Palestinian state most probably reflects his real aim which is to delay and hamper any efforts on the part of the United States, Palestinians, and the wider Arab world for a peaceful solution.
The West Bank was seized by Israel forces in 1967 and thus is occupied territory. Neither the UN or any international body has ever awarded that area to Israel which makes the settlements illegal under any definition of international law.

Police Tear Down San Jose City Hall Occupation, 8 arrests
At 3 am today 8 police officers in 5 police cars arrested protestors outside city hall in San Jose. Those arrested were transported to county jail. The demonstrators are part of an international movement protesting corporate greed.
original image (3344x2224)
In the wee hours of October 21st, one person in a wheel chair was cited and released; eight others were arrested and taken to jail.
All of their belongings were taken by the Police and because of cut backs the SJPD property room is not open until Tuesday.
All the protesters were part of a tent "occupation" that had recently increased from 5 to about a dozen tents in front of City Hall and are part of the "Occupy" movement that started on Wall Street in New York City over one month ago.
The city of San Jose has, on at least two other occasions, allowed people to "occupy" the city plaza area where they have been in agreement with the content of the protestors' speech. But here, since the city was threatened by the content of the speech, the city has chosen to selectively enforce the ordinance, said a legal observer.
That legal observer also said that the ordinance itself is probably unconstitutional because it does not contain a process for granting a waiver of the fees associated with free speech rights.
According to the Mercury News, one of those eight was also arrested for felony vandalism because he allegedly scratched a patrol car. The Mercury also quotes Sgt. Jason Dwyer of the SJPD as saying that public urination was one of the reasons. The protesters have been using nearby restaurant bathrooms and even cleaning those bathrooms to thank the small business that are providing that service.

Tim Doyle
|Assistant Coach
|Third Season
|Previous College:
|Ohio State '10
Tim Doyle enters his third season with the Rams following a distinguished stint as a member of the Ohio State men's volleyball staff.
In addition to on-court coaching, Doyle spearheads VCU's recruiting efforts. Additionally, he oversees the Rams' video and data analysis programs, assembles scouting reports and assists in team and individual player development.
"Tim brings a lot of on court instruction and fosters daily improvement among our players. His skills help balance a great staff. We're a complete family now," VCU Head Coach Jody Rogers said. "After the departure of Kyleigh Gerlach, we needed somebody of her caliber. That's not easy, but we were fortunate to find somebody like Tim. He's already positively impacted our program and I'm excited to see what the future holds for him and our staff."
Doyle played an integral role in VCU's 17-13 campaign in 2014, as well as in the development of All-Atlantic 10 performers Janelle Sykes, Cecilia Aragao, Kalah Jones and Jessica Young. Sykes and Aragao signed professional contracts following graduation.
Doyle joined VCU following two years as a volunteer assistant coach with the Ohio State University men's volleyball program, where he specialized in using video and statistical data to construct the Buckeyes' scouting reports. Working under legendary Ohio State Coach Pete Hanson, Doyle helped the Buckeyes to a 19-8 mark in 2013.
"I'm very excited to join the coaching staff here at VCU," Doyle said upon his arrival. "Coach Rogers brings a tremendous amount of passion, experience, and knowledge to the game, so I'm eager to learn from her and hopefully contribute in a meaningful way to the program. The people, resources, and facilities here at VCU are terrific, and I know we're going to bring in top talent to help the team. I'm grateful Coach Rogers has given me this opportunity and I'm confident VCU Volleyball will continue to grow and develop on our way to the top!"
The Ohio native also served as the head coach of the Buckeye Valley High School girls volleyball program in 2013, where he led the team to the district semifinals. From 2011-2014, Doyle served as head coach of the Vanguard Volleyball Club's 16U Boys Regional squad. Doyle is also a veteran of numerous camps and volleyball clubs.
Doyle graduated Magna Cum Laude from Ohio State in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science in Sport Leadership and Sport Humanities. He added a Master's in Workforce Development and Education from OSU in 2012.

It is estimated that over a million homes in the UK experience problems with moths, and it's an issue that is getting worse. With central heating, the moth life cycle has now become active all year around. Finding moths can cause significant distress and we learn a lot from speaking directly to people on the phone. Problems range from disgust at moth larvae in rugs, horror at holes in cashmere jumpers, worry about wool carpets to food moths in kitchen cupboards.
{Mod - link removed}
1. CLEAN - Move furniture away from edges of the carpet and thoroughly vacuum the carpet (both sides if possible) also paying particular attention to skirting boards and crevices
2. KILL - Spray the carpet deep into the pile and on the underside if possible to kill any eggs and / or larvae - also consider foggers for severe infestations; producing an insecticide smoke that pests cannot avoid
3. MONITOR - Place moth traps close to affected areas to monitor for adult moths and to break the breeding cycle
4. REFRESH - Vacuum deep into edges regularly, keep moth traps current and replace every 3 to 6 months plus consider respraying regularly – please remember, with warmer houses carpet moth damage and infestations are now a year-round problem

Dallmer, Pirtle To Join Ohio Basketball Hall Of Fame
May 16, 2012
CINCINNATI – A pair of Bearcats legends will be enshrined in the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame on May 19 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. Dick Dallmer, a member of the UC Athletics Hall of Fame and 1,000 point club, and Laurie Pirtle, the all-time winningest coach in UC women's basketball history, will join a class of 16 current and former players and coaches whose noteworthy contributions to the sport will be honored.
Selections are made by a panel of Ohio college All-Americans, NBA Hall of Fame players and Ohio high school and college coaches, among others.
Dallmer earned team MVP honors in each of his three seasons with the Bearcats. He closed his career in 1950 as UC's all-time scoring leader with 1,098 points, despite not leading the team in scoring in any of his three seasons. A team co-captain as a junior and senior, Dallmer was a first-team all-Mid-American Conference selection in 1950. He was the first Bearcat to earn all-America honors in basketball after earning honorable mention in 1948 and 1949 and third-team laurels in 1950. He was selected by Philadelphia in the 1950 NBA draft and was inducted into the UC Athletics Hall of Fame in 1984.
Pirtle is the women's basketball program's all-time winningest coach with a career coaching record of 393-317. During her 21-year tenure from 1986-2007, the Bearcats won 310 games and advanced to postseason play more times than under any other head coach. In her final 11 years, she guided UC to 10 winning seasons, five 20-plus win campaigns and eight postseason appearances, including seven consecutive from 1997-2004. She was named the Metro Conference Coach of the Year in 1988 after transforming a 6-22 program into an 18-11 team in just two years. Her squad advanced to the NCAA Tournament on four occasions, reaching the second round in 2001-02.
The Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame and Museum recognizes outstanding players and coaches at all levels who inspire Ohio's basketball future. The 2012 Class will be formally inducted May 19, 2012 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.ohiobasketballhalloffame.com or contact Sheila Fox, Event Coordinator at firstname.lastname@example.com or 614-547-2160.

Sarah Johnson used to think of Schottzie's Bar & Grill, 11428 Concord Village Ave. in St. Louis, simply as home to "the most wonderful, out-of-this-world pizza." Now it's also the place where she won $25,000 playing the Missouri Lottery's Club Keno game.
The St. Louis woman was having lunch with a friend on Nov. 9 when she matched nine out of 10 spots on her Club Keno ticket. The prize normally would have been $5,000, but Johnson utilized the game's Bulls-Eye feature – matching an additional bonus number – to turn her prize amount into $25,000.
"I like 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s," she said, explaining how she decided which 10 numbers to select.
In fact, it was switching to those numbers that led to Johnson's win.
"I wasn't having any luck on the numbers I was using," she said. "So I changed them. I didn't win on the next three, or the next three, but on the next three, I won $25,000!"
Interestingly, Johnson said she also won $125,000 playing Keno in Las Vegas many years ago playing "almost the same set of numbers."
Asked how she would use her prize money, she said she "might get a new car."
To play Club Keno, players choose how many different numbers (also called "spots") they want to play from 1 to 10. Twenty numbers from a field of 1-80 are chosen in a computerized random Club Keno drawing held every five minutes. To see where Club Keno is available in your area, visit the Retailer Search at Molottery.com and search for Club Games by city or zip code.

Laptop Bags That Are Practical and Sleek
As editors, fashionistas, celebutantes, and designers gather under the bright white tents of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Bryant Park to mix, mingle, and ogle works of fashion genius, the rest of us pick up our threadbare, coffee-and-ink-stained laptop bags and wonder if there isn't more to life. Well, there is. But in a world where fashion is king, you can no longer afford to be seen with your bulky, "my-dog-ate-half-of-it" leather laptop case. It's time to update your style, and the word on the street is that sleek and sexy are in, and brown is the new black. Read on, oh, fashion-weary, to see some of the most stylin' (and don't worry, efficient) laptop bags and sleeves on the market today.

8 Biggest Thanksgiving Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them) (Page 6)
Mistake 5: Overcooking your bird
All that worry about dry meat on Thanksgiving is just about overcooking it. If it's done right, which is to 165 degrees F (considered safe by the USDA), then it should stay juicy and moist. Keep in mind if you want your meat to end up at 165, then you'll need to pull the bird out of the oven when it hits between 155 and 160. The temperature will continue to rise 5 to 10 degrees as the bird rests (that's called "carryover cooking.") The complicating factor here is that the breast tends to cook faster than the thighs and legs, and also will naturally dry out more because it's leaner. I like this turkey-roasting technique of protecting the breast meat with a foil deflector; the foil slows down how fast the breast cooks, so that it reaches the proper temp at the same time that the thigh meat does.

Hard to believe my little peanut is getting so big. She has been reluctant to be in a big girl bed and frankly I didn't mind keeping her in a crib for as long as she would stay there (and not climb out and mame herself) she has always been a terrible sleeper, tossing and turning, taking forever to go down so with the crib came the knowledge that she was safe inside and wouldn't wander through the house.
The last month or so she has been much better at going to sleep so we tried a few weeks ago to remove the front of the crib.....fail! She cried and asked for the rail to be put back on so I have been removing it during the day for her to get used to it and then re-attaching it at nap/bedtime. Yesterday we tried it at nap and it worked great! So we decided to keep things rolling and try it at bedtime. Worked great, I guess it is true what they say....all kids reach milestones at different times and are ready at different times for big changes. We decided to make a small rail for the bed because.....
1) the retail ones were $25 and she will probably not need it for very long and we had the materials sitting around from other projects
2) the ones you can purchase were the wrong size
3) The ready made ones were all white and ugly.
We designed it so that there is a piece of wood vertically up the side of the mattress and one that slips under the mattress about 1/3 of the way (this piece of wood is thinner than the one that is vertical to the mattress). We attached the two pieces of wood with metal L shaped brackets (see below)
Put tape on the brackets so they wouldn't rub on the mattress or poke a hole in it.
Keep your fingers crossed she still likes it tonight and we don't have to revert to the baby crib.
