'Searching for Sugar Man' director dies at 36
Updated 10:58 pm, Tuesday, May 13, 2014
Stockholm --
Malik Bendjelloul, the cash-strapped freelance filmmaker who shot to Hollywood stardom overnight with the Oscar-winning music documentary "Searching for Sugar Man," has died. He was 36.
Swedish police spokeswoman Pia Glenvik said Bendjelloul died in Stockholm late Tuesday, but wouldn't specify where his body was found or the cause of death.
She said no crime is suspected in relation to the filmmaker's death.
"Searching for Sugar Man," which tells the story of how American singer Sixto Rodriguez became a superstar in South Africa without knowing about it, won the Oscar for best documentary in 2013. It was the first time a Swedish film had won an Oscar since Ingmar Bergman's "Fanny and Alexander" in 1984.

The film also won several other prizes, including a British BAFTA for best documentary and the Swedish Guldbagge award.
Swedish film critic Hynek Pallas, who traveled with Bendjelloul to Hollywood when he received the Oscar, described him as a modest, but very determined man.

God Help Us
Dear Father God,
Please please please help us here on Earth, if you want to do it on 12/21/12 or whatever your timing is, please come down to Earth to remove evil? It has taken over society. Mentally impaired people have access to guns. They don't get the mental health needs under control yet they have plenty of access to guns that fire 100's of rounds and rip apart innocent children and adults. Children killing parents, strangers killing strangers for no reason other than the thrill of the massacre (the thrill being in their own sick minds).
Father God, we need you more than ever. Even though our government would just as soon forget about you completely, things are falling apart so fast they cannot keep up with repairs. Please take away evil. Decent folks are powerless to do anything. We will continue to pray and keep the faith. But I believe with all my heart that You need to step in.
Thanks for listening. And bless all the innocent victims of today's shooting massacre at Sandy Hook School in Newtown, Connecticut. And especially the parents and families of the little children. Instead of having warm family holidays, they will be burying their own.

Oh Barbara, the news of this senseless act of violence has just left me broken hearted. I had no idea until just a bit ago ... I was holding Ellie when I found out ... and all I could do was pray and hold onto that sweet little baby. Praying in agreement with you. Hugs. :)ReplyDelete
Dear Barbara, this post is full of emotion. I' ll pray with you for a better world.ReplyDelete
Such horrors drive us to our knees. Your loving and sensitive spirit is coming through so clearly. THIS, this is why we need a Savior. Wish I could give you a gentle hug and pray with you in the flesh.ReplyDelete
Such bitter sorrow at a time that should be joyous. May God help the broken hearted, and may His protection be in front of us, behind us, over top of us and inside us.ReplyDelete
For once, I am at a total loss for words. The only thing I know to do at this point is pray, pray, and pray!ReplyDelete
Amen! Oh sweet Jesus, do reach down and heal all those broken hearts and then give us as individuals to do what is necessary to heal our nation.ReplyDelete
Barbara, thank you for this beautiful and urgent prayer. I am praying with you.
Well said Barbara. Tears are welling up in my eyes as I go from blog to blog reading these sad posts. Yours is one of the only ones I have found that actually starts to address the problem. You have hit the nail on the head. In this country we do not address either the lack of treatment for the mentally ill or the regulation of certain guns and ammunition. Therefore we will have more and more of these tragedies. Until we get the government to work for the good of all people again and not for the mega corporations nothing will change. Praying is nice, calling your congressman and senator is better.ReplyDelete
Such a sad day for our country...and the world....ReplyDelete
How very sad!ReplyDelete
So, so sad. I couldn't believe what I was watching and hearing yesterday.ReplyDelete
All I can say is Amen! My prayers are with all the grieving families.ReplyDelete

This is the worst. Every heart was torn open over this. We definitely have some problems in our society that need big time attention. Let's pray that we all become more vigilant and speak up about those who concern us. There is no more room to be complacent.ReplyDelete
I'm in total shock, I can't even enjoy my holiday season after this! The worst is that it's happen again and again..why are this crazy people with mental illnesses walking around, what are we to do?? I'm acking for the parents of the little children they lost here and so closed to C'mas..oh Lord, please save us!

Eighteen carnations in a bouquet marked the years since Operation Share founder Mitzi Geiser started the grass-roots food donation program in Orrville.

Mary West. Darla K. Landers photo
On Saturday at the Orrville Salvation Army Service Center, with many mainstay supporters and a few Salvation Army "uniforms" on hand, Geiser said that donations have pretty much stabilized through the years to the current 30,000 non-perishable food items.
"I'm not as picky about counting every item as I once was," said the 77-year-old. "The original members that are still holding on have gotten more generous. Many are dropping off cases of food -- rather than just one item per week, although we have lost some members to death, health problems and poor finances."
In recent years, Geiser initiated moving the January celebration from her Burkhart Road home to the Service Center because snow and ice storms made her long uphill driveway treacherous for members.
So instead, she said, volunteers took this week to load and transport the food, in temporary storage at her home, to the Service Center.
"The food keeps the shelves full from the post-holiday season," she said "to about income tax time."
And the people who come into the Service Center need the groceries, she said.
"I am very proud of Operation Share," she said. "I hope we can make it to 20 years."
That doubt was put to rest by Maj. Mary West of the Salvation Army in Wooster.
"Operation Share started out as a dream," she said. "And when people walk through that door, we have to give them the ability to dream. ... We're all dreamers in this room, but the people who come in here -- they are afraid to dream."
West said she has never even considered the possibility that Operation Share will not survive for two more years. "I am a firm believer in improving lives," she said. "And this program offers hope."
With great candor, West told the group about the challenges of her own life: one of 12 children, her father died when she was 14. "I had a severely retarded sister," she said. "And one who died of polio and our house burned to the ground before I was 14. I hated God and I hated life. But I am the product of someone caring. I got in an after-school program and got some hope, and it taught me to dream."
West said as long as programs like Operation Share offer hope to those who can't dream, God will take care of it.
Advisory board chairman Darrell Smucker thanked Geiser for her program and noted that according to statistics from Barb Arnold, the center's licensed social worker, 3,303 people in Orrville, Marshallville, Dalton and Kidron benefitted from the food supply of Operation Share in 1998.
Salvation Army field representative Tom Chmura welcomed guests and noted the tremendous amount of work that is done in Orrville -- to help their own. "These are real people, with real needs, doing the real work," he said.

On what influence he's had on skateboarding:
I don't know. I know that the feedback I get feels good. It's mostly about an independent spirit and doing your own thing. Not being a follower and skating how you want to skate. I learned that from all of my heroes. They all have that, but most importantly from Lance. I pattern myself in a way—and others may not see this, most street skaters want to see a little Gonz in them, but I really try to borrow from Gonz the sense of being free and not being inhibited.

Yes it's certainly possible. Check the m0n0wall documentation for
instructions on how to do this. IPsec can be used either for
LAN-to-LAN tunnels or for mobile users.
As far as the benefit of PPTP vs. IPsec - PPTP is typically much
easier to set up on the client side of things, but it often has issues
w/ getting through NAT routers. Consumer-grade NAT routers typically
don't have issues passing PPTP traffic - it's the higher-end "real"
routers (cisco et. al.) that usually need some massaging to get them
to pass GRE traffic, which is required for PPTP.

The folks at Merriam-Webster have it all wrong. "Slang: very good : excellent; also: all right, fashionable, hip" is not a comprehensive entry for "cool." No, the definition of cool isn't really complete without a photo of Sloane Peterson, Ferris Bueller's very, very choice girlfriend.
Mia Sara, Alan Ruck and Matthew Broderick in* Ferris Bueller's Day Off*, 1986.
Here at Slaves to Fashion, we're big fans of all of John Hughes' heroines, but Sloane Peterson—played by the bewitching Brooklyn native, Mia Sara—was and always will be the coolest girl in school. It's downright mind-boggling to think that Sara only wore one outfit in her role as Sloane Peterson, but oh, what a magnificent outfit it was: long before Chloe Sevigny and Rachel Bilson worked the boots-and-shorts look, Sloane waltzed into—and out of—school in the combo topped off with a fringe jacket. A fringe jacket! (Not unlike some of these fall fringe jackets...)
The cool-girl look—along with her flirtatious taxi cab behavior and hooky-playing ways—has cemented her in the fashion hall of fame. (It's also recently inspired a shockingly spot-on list of THE GUIDE TO BEING SO CHOICE aka How Sloane Peterson from Ferris Bueller's Day Off Taught me how to be an Awesome Girlfriend that's been making it's way around the Interwebs.)
I should admit that Sloane Peterson has been *numero uno * in my girl crush book (actually she and Sofia Coppola are tied for first) for years. So imagine how thrilled and swoony I got when I found out that Sara is as devastatingly hip as she seemed in *Ferris Bueller *. I've seriously considering naming my first-born (boy *or *girl) Sloane after her character, and after reading this interview—um, hello Sara is a feathers-wearing mom who hearts Rick Owens—has a maybe you will too:
Mia Sara as Sloane Peterson, 1986.
STF: You were 19 when you filmed Ferris Bueller's Day off: How did the wardrobe of your Sloane Peterson character influence you style-wise?__MS:__At the time, I was very into a Katherine Hepburn thing, slouchy trousers, plain white t-shirts, and Keds. To be honest, I felt very awkward in the whole shorts with boots look. I had no idea, really.
STF: Did you have any input on wardrobe for your character?
MS: Marilyn Vance was incredibly nice, very good at her job, and very persuasive. The last thing she needed was my input.
What was your favorite outfit from the shoot & why?__
__MS:__Well, there was only one costume, and a negligee, which was to spare me the bathing suit, which I appreciated.
STF: Did you ever get to keep any of the wardrobe items from the shoot?
__MS:__I did used to have the fringe jacket, but I can't remember what I did with.
STF: Describe the style that you wore (off-camera) during that time period?__
__MS:__My style was nostalgic and involved pearls and penny loafers, always with the pennies in them.
STF: What are some of the worst 80s trends (ie things you'd like to stay in the past)?
__MS:__Acid washed denim was never my favorite.
STF: Are you revisiting any of the (good) 80s trends these days?
MS: I'd be more likely to wear some of the more avant-garde stuff today…exaggerated shoulders, body-con, jumpsuits…
STF: Of all the characters you've played, whose style was most closely aligned with your own (and describe the similarities)?
MS: I kept a few things from Birds Of Prey. Now I am older, my tastes are more extreme. Harley Quinn was prone to a bit of drama.
STF: What are your favorite labels, designers etc?
__MS:__Rick Owens is my desert island designer. I could live in his clothes alone, and I collect Ossie Clark.
STF: What's your go-to outfit these days?
__MS:__Depends on my mood, and how much cooking I plan to do. I've ruined many a trumpet sleeve.
STF: You have a lot of thriller-type projects under your belt (Stephen King, CSI, Birds of Prey, etc): Ever wish the shows would up the glam factor, wardrobe-wise?
__MS:__I'm always in favor of more glamour. I embarrass my children, I think. I am the lady in feathers in the car pool line.
__STF: Do you get the "OMG, you are Sloane Peterson" comment a lot? __
__MS:__Occasionally. Most of the time people think they went to high school with me.
Aren't you just head-over-heels in love with her? Would you ever wear a fringe jacket? And can we talk about how much we still love Ferris Bueller's Day Off? How many times do you think you've seen it? Feel free to nerd-out and write your favorite line in the comments below.

Diane Kruger's Stylish La La Land Liftoff
Jetting off to her next destination, Diane Kruger caught a departing flight out of LAX airport in Los Angeles on Monday (November 26).
The "National Treasure: Book of Secrets" babe looked effortlessly chic in jeans, a black blazer and a striped button up as she shielded her eyes from the awaiting shutterbugs under a pair of big red sunglasses.
Clearly being quite the traveler as of late, Diane must have had just enough time to pack up another bag before heading out of the west coast again.
As previously reported by GossipCenter, Miss Kruger and her longtime love, Joshua Jackson, just returned from enjoying a relaxing holiday vacation in Los Cabos, Mexico over the weekend.
While there, the Hollywood lovebirds spent time out by the pool where the 36 year-old stunner showed off her enviable bikini bod.

Windfall of prescription drug turn-ins expected
Federal drug agents arrive on Saturday to collect a bounty of unwanted prescription drugs. Peters police have already filled 10 boxes and expect they could double that amount this week.
"It's scary," said police Chief Harry Fruecht. "There is so much of this stuff out there. You'd think at some point, it would start going down."
It hasn't.
Since Peters police participated in the Drug Enforcement Agency's first National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day in 2010, they have continued to see people drop off record numbers of prescription drugs. At the last national collection day in April, Peters and five other law enforcement agencies around Washington County submitted 965 pounds of prescription drugs to the DEA.
The DEA collected 371 tons of prescription medications during that round from nearly 5,900 locations nationwide, manned by more than 4,300 law enforcement agencies.
The seventh national collection is Saturday. Donations are anonymous and what is dropped off is not catalogued, Fruecht said.
"I don't care what it is," he said. "Just get it out of your medicine cabinet."
Shortly after the first national collection, Fruecht had an old mailbox-style evidence collection box installed in his department's lobby. Recently, he replaced it with a prescription-drug drop-box supplied by the National Association of Drug Diversion Investigators in Lutherville, Md.
"I looked around to find a way for residents to drop drugs off all the time," Fruecht said. "People just don't know what to do with this stuff."
District Attorney Gene Vittone recently used grant money to order drop-off boxes for 16 other police departments in Washington County.
"Peters Township has had tremendous success with their program," Vittone said. "Drug abuse is a major problem, and it starts with what is inside medicine cabinets."
A 2011 survey found that twice as many Americans regularly abused prescribed medicines as those who used cocaine, hallucinogens, heroin and inhalants combined. More than seven in 10 who abused prescription drugs said they got them through friends and family members.
Pennsylvania ranked 14th in the nation in its rate of drug overdose deaths, with 15.3 per 100,000 residents, a study this month from the Trust for America's Health found. Most of those deaths involved prescription drugs, and the rate spiked 89 percent since 1999, the study stated.
Though the FDA maintains that certain prescription drugs are safe to be flushed down the toilet, including fentanyl, oxycodone and other narcotic painkillers, Pennsylvania American Water urges people to participate in the national prescription drug collection and other take-back events.
"They prevent pharmaceutical products from being flushed down the toilet or thrown in the trash," said Paul Zielinski, senior director of water quality and environmental compliance for the state's largest water utility. "Both of those options pose potential hazards to our environment."

Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec sidelined by flu
By KIRK PENTON, QMI Agency
OTTAWA - It has gone from bad to worse for Ondrej Pavelec.
The Jets netminder hasn't been playing at a level reflective of his new $19.5 million contract, and the fan base is starting to ask questions. Then on Friday he woke up with the flu that has been ravaging everyone and their dog in Manitoba for the last couple of months.
Pavelec still travelled on the Jets charter to Ottawa on Friday, but they probably stuck him in the back because they were trying to keep him away from his teammates. They put him in his hotel room and headed off to practice, using a local recruit as their other netminder opposite Al Montoya.
"He did not look good," head coach Claude Noel said.
Considering Saturday's game against Ottawa is a 2 p.m. local start, it looks like Montoya will be getting his second start for the Jets.
"We'll wait and see, but that possibly could happen," Noel said.

Greece win nets punter $855,000
Page Tools
A punter from Woking, just outside London, is picking up over $855,000 thanks to Greece beating Portugal 1-0 in the Euro 2004 final.
The backer had two bets at a William Hill shop -- £4,000 ($10,306) when the Greeks were 50-1 on June 23 and £8,000 ($20,613) five days later when they were 10-1.
On Sunday afternoon with Greece on offer at 9-4 to beat the tournament hosts in the final he put down another £12,500 ($32,208), which meant he won a total of £332,000 ($855,449)
"We believe the man is Greek, which isn't that surprising," said Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Greece were 80-1 outsiders when the tournament began and are now on offer at 33-1 for the 2006 World Cup.
British bookmakers took £300 million ($773.0 million) on Euro 2004.

A few weeks ago, millions rejoiced as the first trailer for New Moon, the second book-turned-film in the Twilight saga, premiered at the MTV Movie Awards. These wildly successful books continue to draw a loyal following that rivals that of Harry Potter. This is remarkable when one considers how counter-cultural these books are, and how atypical they are of traditional vampire tales. Not unlike Harry Potter, these books represent a number of conservative and often Christian themes, especially when it comes to sex (warning: Spoilers ahead!).
Vampires have always represented the dark side of sexuality. Their unending lust for blood parallels the human lust for flesh that, if unchecked by the confines of marriage, can be radically self-destructive. In the Twilight books, specifically beginning in New Moon, Bella is eager to engage in the most intimate expression of love with her soul-mate, Edward. But Edward is a true gentlemen, raised in an age long past, and refuses to have sex with Bella until they are married. One of his primary motivations, aside from his traditional upbringing, is the fact that he has taken human life in the past. He now feels that chastity is his last virtue. This highlights the fact that sexual purity is not only a virtue, but a virtue on par with refraining from murder. Edward Cullen is one of only a few role models who takes sexual purity seriously, and who actually embodies it in an attractive manner.
This is not to say the books are without fault. Despite the fact that Edward spends three and a half books trying to convince Bella not to become a vampire, she is turned anyway. And both she and the reader are glad of it. We are meant to envy the power, beauty and perpetual youth of these creatures. From the very beginning of the saga it is clear that these are not the monsters of classic lore, but heroes (despite Edward's protests to the contrary). These vampires lack nothing that would make them envy normal human beings. Bella herself becomes even more beautiful and graceful than she was as a human. She is not affected by the problems normally associated with "newborn" vampires. In the Twilight universe, it would be folly for Bella to remain human.
Is this a good thing? Our culture idealizes unrealistic standards of beauty. A vampire bite may not be quite the same as plastic surgery, but the message is the same. And the vampires' ability to live forever as teenagers reinforces the idealization of youth. Age-wrought wisdom is rarely sought after in our culture.
Still, these problems may not be so great. For example, the fact that even the evil vampires are beautiful suggests that outward beauty isn't everything. Additionally, as C.S. Lewis pointed out, the desire to be immortal may actually be a strong intuitive apologetic for Christianity. These books will inevitably create a desire to cheat death. But as Christians, we believe that we have defeated death through Christ's death and resurrection. Finally, even though Edward and Bella will be teenagers forever, they will continue to grow and learn. While Edward is a perpetual teenager on the outside, he is almost a century old on the inside, and his character often demonstrates the maturity that comes with age (as with, for example, his strong sexual ethic that we have already mentioned).
The Twilight saga embeds these elements in a powerful, dramatic narrative that captures the imagination. It's no wonder, then, that they would meet with such success in a culture so deeply rooted in Western Christianity. '

Will it win seats in the elections, provide a real voice for women, and make a large impact on gender equality in Hebron?
Just as sex is often talked about as male/female, gender is often thought about as being a man or woman.
Openness might be a function of sexuality and gender, as well.
Central questions of gender and ethnicity are handled with a delicate clarity.
In all but three states, proof of surgery is required to change a gender marker on a birth certificate.
In Chinese the pronouns also have no gender, so also in Japanese.
Servants sometimes say "she" of a clock, but every one gives a gender to vessels.
But no trace of gender has yet been observed in common nouns or adjectives.
The difference of gender in nouns is utilized for the same reason.
Inflexion is unknown in Malay, and gender has no place in the grammar of the language.
c.1300, "kind, sort, class," from Old French gendre (12c., Modern French genre), from stem of Latin genus (genitive generis) "race, stock, family; kind, rank, order; species," also (male or female) "sex" (see genus) and used to translate Aristotle's Greek grammatical term genos.
The grammatical sense is attested in English from late 14c.; the male-or-female sense from early 15c. As sex took on erotic qualities in 20c., gender came to be the common word used for "sex of a human being," often in feminist writing with reference to social attributes as much as biological qualities; this sense first attested 1963. Gender-bender is first attested 1980, with reference to pop star David Bowie.
"to bring forth," late 14c., from Old French gendrer, from Latin generare "to engender" (see generation). Related: Gendered; gendering.
"to bring forth," late 14c., from Old French gendrer, from Latin generare "to engender" (see generation). Related: Gendered; gendering.
gender gen·der (jěn'dər)
The sex of an individual, male or female, based on reproductive anatomy.
A grammatical category indicating the sex, or lack of sex, of nouns and pronouns. The three genders are masculine, feminine, and neuter. He is a masculine pronoun; she is a feminine pronoun; it is a neuter pronoun. Nouns are classified by gender according to the gender of the pronoun that can substitute for them. In English, gender is directly indicated only by pronouns.

Monterey Sports & Classic Car Auction
18-19 August 2006
Lot 504
1970 Cadillac N.A.R.T. Coupe
- Chassis no. 1486238
Sold for $57,750
400 hp 500 cu. in. overhead valve vee eight-cylinder engine, four-speed automatic transmission, four-wheel independent suspension with torsion bars, four-wheel disc brakes.
In the late Sixties being Ferrari's US distributor put Luigi Chinetti back in the driver's seat which he had exited nearly twenty years before after his last Le Mans win. His North American Racing Team attracted the best drivers and had no trouble selling its used, and frequently race-winning, team cars to wealthy clients. From its headquarters in Greenwich, Connecticut the Chinetti organization enjoyed success and admiration.
However, even in these heady times, there was a cloud on the horizon: the certainty of more stringent auto emissions regulations. There also was an apparent reluctance on Ferrari's part to acknowledge the superiority of mid-engine designs, or at least their attractiveness to potential buyers of high performance limited production automobiles. What part these factors played in the evolution of the 1970 Cadillac N.A.R.T. offered here is only conjecture, but work began in 1969 on an exciting and daringly different four-seat, mid-engined concept which became the 1970 Cadillac N.A.R.T.
Conceived by Luigi Chinetti, Jr., the Cadillac N.A.R.T. was designed to provide Chinetti's clients with a luxurious, sophisticated, high performance four seat automobile that could be built in limited quantities at a reasonable cost. It was based upon the simple but ingenious concept of relocating the front wheel drive Cadillac Eldorado power train to behind the rear seats to create a mid-engined layout, then using other standard Cadillac assemblies for the front suspension. Carefully packaged and built in limited series by independent coachbuilders in Italy, all of whom were well known to the Chinetti family, it promised to deliver neck-snapping performance in a distinctive package.
Luigi Chinetti, Jr. worked with General Motors in the initial planning and, with GM's guidance, employed an Art Center graduate to convert the layout and Chinetti's concept drawings into full size elevations. Following the practice of a major automaker, a full size clay model was then made in GM's studio. Zagato was chosen to build the prototype from the drawings and clay model. Chinetti provided a Cadillac Eldorado and other parts from which the finished car, offered here for the first time to the public, was constructed.
In addition to the Cadillac Eldorado powertrain, including the torsion bar suspension and disc brakes, the front suspension of the Cadillac N.A.R.T. is from a full size Cadillac, with the giant vented disc brakes needed to arrest a loaded six-passenger Cadillac. All the comfort and convenience features expected by buyers of Cadillacs, or of top of the line Ferraris for that matter, were provided including power steering, power brakes, power windows, climate control air conditioning and an AM-FM signal seeking stereo.
The design communicates its American origins with flared wheel arches that tightly wrap the tires but those cues are countered by other elements of Luigi Chinetti, Jr.'s design. The reverse wrapped rear window is buried deep within the roof's rear quarters to give adequate access to the mid-located engine and the rear deck is high both to enclose the engine and to give a reasonable amount of luggage capacity for a four-passenger automobile. The side windows drop below the fender tops, giving the driver and passengers great visibility. High visibility also has another aspect: it allows the occupants of this distinctive and rare automobile to be recognized as they pass by in comfort and safety and at speed.
Fitted with pop up headlights over shallow parking lights recessed in the full width grille, from the front there is no mistaking the Cadillac N.A.R.T for anything but the high performance luxury coupé that it is.
After this prototype's completion it was displayed at the 1971 Turin show by Zagato and a few months later on Chinetti Motors' stand at the New York International Automobile Show. It was reportedly well received by potential buyers, but Chinetti's Ferrari business had come to require their full attention and a second prototype for further development work was never built. This is the only example of the Cadillac N.A.R.T. ever built.
It was acquired nearly twenty years ago by the present owner in original, as-displayed condition directly from Luigi Chinetti, Jr. Since then it has had cosmetic attention and consistent care and maintenance.
Concept cars and prototypes are among the most exciting and vibrant area of collecting today but few examples have escaped either the manufacturers' collections or the crusher. As an example of an extremely rare collaboration among three of the most recognized and respected names in automobiles, Cadillac, Zagato and Chinetti, the Cadillac N.A.R.T. is particularly important and rare.
"Unique" is a word frequently misused when describing collector cars, but in the case of the Cadillac N.A.R.T. it is fully deserved. Whether it is conserved as an artifact of automotive history, advanced concept and design or treated to a concours restoration for the many shows, events and concours where it would be an appreciated participant, this is a unique opportunity to acquire a unique automobile with the combined heritage of Cadillac, Zagato and Luigi Chinetti's North American Racing Team.

T300 Studio Reference, Dual symmetrical differential
High accuracy uncolored amplifier for studio application.
Total dead silent at idle, absolutely no
hiss or hum at full ear contact with tweeter and woofer at
gain of 40X(32dB) and an input Sensitivity
of 1V for rated output of 125 watts RMS 8ohms.
Gain is defined as the ratio of the power delivered to the output to the power available from the input.The greater the gain, the more the signal is amplified in the amplifier, however, it will also amplify its own noise (floor noise),Lowering gain gives impressive low Distortion figures, but that would result in a lifeless sound, some would otherwise
perceive it as a quiet amplifier.
Complete silence,
No thump or noise during turn on/off . Does not rely on speaker
delay relay to mask turn on/off noise due to poor design or balance,some
amplifiers operate with very low input differential current
to avoid this problem.
A capacitor or transistor at different positions on a circuit board has an impact on sound, we recorded different length of reverb and sustain of a percussion instrument caused by different positioning of these components. Our selected audio components are critically positioned for unaltered amplification.
T300 Studio Reference is a result of
a decade long of testing and fine tuning based on the feedbacks recieved from
our audiophile customers whom are still using this kits today as their main
amplifiers purchased way back from 2005.
: 1unit(mono) USD125
Important - Before you buy, there will be no refund
after payment made.
This is a high end product, to protect our customers, we do not keep returned goods or resell them.

T-cell differentiation antigen CD6, also known as TP120 and CD6, is a single-pass type I membrane protein which contains three SRCR domains. CD6 / TP120 is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed primarily on T cells, it may function as a costimulatory molecule and may play a role in autoreactive immune responses. CD6 / TP120 is expressed by thymocytes, mature T-cells, a subset of B-cells known as B-1 cells, and by some cells in the brain. CD6 ligand termed CD166 (previously known as activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule, ALCAM ) has been identified and shown to be expressed on activated T cells, B cells, thymic epithelium, keratinocytes, and in rheumatoid arthritis synovial tissue. CD6 / TP120 binds to activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule ( CD166 ), and is considered as a costimulatory molecule involved in lymphocyte activation and thymocyte development. CD6 / TP120 partially associates with the TCR / CD3 complex and colocalizes with it at the center of the mature immunological synapse (IS) on T lymphocytes. During thymic development CD6-dependent signals may contribute both to thymocyte survival, and to the overall functional avidity of selection in both man and mouse.

Thomas Heath is away, but we still found some things of interest to pass on until he returns.
When Jeremy Farber launched his company 10 years ago under the name Miami Computers, the moniker was a bit of a misnomer. After all, its headquarters was actually in upstate New York.
Today, the Chantilly-based firm is called PC Recycler but even that name isn't a perfect fit. Farber's company doesn't just discard old electronics, it first wipes their data and shreds them into confetti.
"A couple of our big customers early on were big government contractors and they loved us, but they were really interested in information security," Farber said. "It was a very big priority to them, more so than the environmental aspect of it."
The latest tool in that effort is a $100,000 machine that allows the firm to destroy equipment faster through a process called degaussing. Essentially the magnetic field that allows a device to store data is eliminated, and the data is taken along with it.
There's no shortage of devices to demolish as cybersecurity concerns continue to trouble government and commercial entities alike, Farber said. Though most security efforts are aimed at a device that's in use, he said the risks don't necessarily end once it's unplugged.
"Because a lot of the attacks come over the Net it gets a lot of publicity, but there are just as many breaches that happen through physical loss," he said. "A lot of people don't understand that the information is just as accessible once the device is offline."

Pottery Barn has been added to the growing list of merchants vacating Friendship Heights. The home furnishings store notified customers last week that its location at Chevy Chase Pavilion will close on Jan. 16., making it the third retailer in the area, after Borders and Filene's Basement, to turn off the lights in the past 12 months.
Officials at Williams-Sonoma, which owns Pottery Barn and West Elm, were not available for comment. No other Pottery Barn stores are slated to close, according Williams-Sonoma's most recent regulatory filings. Pottery Barn, with 7 percent increase in revenues in the third quarter, has been leading the company's sales growth.
The home furnishing store has locations in Clarendon, Tysons Corner and White Flint. The store at the Pavilion, located at 5335 Wisconsin Ave. NW, occupies two floors. It's unclear whether Akridge Real Estate Services, which owns the nine-story complex, has another tenant lined up for the space, since the company did not return calls for comment.

When Lowe's, the home improvement chain, pulled out of plans to anchor a development in Baltimore in October, it prompted concerns that the chain also would opt against opening a store on New York Avenue in a planned development in Northeast Washington where Wal-Mart also has agreed to open a new location.
Both projects have the same developer, Rick Walker, and Walker had long pitched the plan of building the Wal-Mart store on top of a home improvement big box on New York Avenue at the corner of Bladensburg Road, just as he planned to build a Wal-Mart store above a Lowe's in Baltimore.
Walker is no longer marketing his New York Avenue project, called the Pointe at Arbor Place, as having a home improvement store. He says he is juggling his tenant mix and is attempting to attract a national pet supplies chain to his project. Wal-Mart says it is still committed to the site.
Lowe's still appears to be coming to New York Avenue, however, but to the Shops at Dakota Crossing, a development planned down the road by Fort Lincoln and Trammell Crow Co. That project recently lost a commitment from Target but now has a commitment from Lowe's, according to a person familiar with the deal. Hagans declined to discuss Lowe's but said the development team recently inked a deal with TD Bank to finance construction. A Lowe's spokeswoman declined to comment.

The Department of Veterans Affairs' inspector general said in a report released last month that the agency showed a potential bias toward incumbent Booz Allen Hamilton, the McLean-based contractor, in its acquisition of support services for its information security and privacy programs.
The acquisition, which was awarded in late September 2010, favored Booz Allen by making knowledge of VA procedures and practices a significant selection factor without making clear in the solicitation it would be important. Though Booz Allen's proposal cost the most, its knowledge and experience helped it win the decision, said the IG memo, which was first reported by NextGov.
The VA's acquisition office generally disagreed with the inspector general's findings.
In a statement, Booz Allen said the report "was not directly focused on actions by Booz Allens itself, and we have no comment on its conclusions."

Malika Levarlet, a Washington-based associate at Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton, is getting kudos for being the first lawyer at the firm's D.C. outpost to take on a political asylum case through the human rights nonprofit Human Rights First.
The firm awarded Levarlet, a corporate lawyer and American University law alumna, its Pro Bono Attorney of the Year award, an annual honor recognizing attorneys' community service work.
Levarlet worked closely with a woman who was forced to flee her native Cameroon after advocating for transparent elections and equal access to health care for prisoners to gain political asylum in the United States. Her efforts helped Sheppard Mullin nab the Frankel Award from Human Rights First, which goes to law firms taking on asylum cases on behalf of clients from dozens of countries.

We are entering in the world of high speed internet world with Google. With Google Fiber promising 1 GB speed for $70 a month, a better deal than anything else currently available in the USA. Google Fiber is another one of Google's incredible experiments to see what would be possible if we were all connected to the internet at breakneck speed. Google, in typical Google has decided that Fiber isn't just another science experiment; instead it's actually "a great business to be in."
Milo Medin, Vice President of access services for Google, told at Fiber-to-Home-Council meeting stated on Wednesday that
We expect to make money from Google Fiber, this is a great business to be in.
Medin did confirm this wasn't always the expectation. "We thought a handful of cities would say they were interested. Then we saw that 1,100 communities replied. No one at the time thought there was a real business here. But that changed when we saw the interest."
How google able to offer a profitable service at such a low cost? Google asks to make use of existing cable conduits , for poles to be installed where conduits don't exist and for dedicated inspectors to be on hand so there are no delays waiting for approval of any construction required.
But there's also a bit of bad news. Once Google completes installing Fiber in one location, it moves on to the next, meaning that customers who aren't completely bought on the idea when it rolls around to their area of the neighbourhood, might not get another chance for a long time.
He warned that once Google completes one wave of installation in a particular fiberhood, it's done. And the company starts again in fiberhood. The downside, of course, is that customers who don't sign up right away may lose out on the chance to get the service.
"If you miss out on that installation, we may not get back to you for a long time,"
Google Fiber,s next stop after Kansas will be Austin, Texas.

Don't fancy Djakadam myself, he has lots to prove (only won a handicap off 145) and his price isn't reflective of that.
Gonna wait for the weather report tomorrow, supposedly gonna bucket down in the morning so that will have a big impact on the ante.
Fancy Coneygree in the GC who has lots to prove but plenty in the tank. If the ground goes soft it seems most going with Many Clouds, which sounds ironically good.


text: I'm looking for the key missing elements in this collection. I rarely wear ties at work and can wear dark dress denim on most days that don't have important meetings. I don't tend to wear loafers much hence the just ok Cole Haan loafers from a while back. What do you guys think the best purchases I could make to round this out would be? Some ideas I have are: Black Cap Toe: Brown Wingtips: Engineer Boots: FYI yes I will sneak boots in now and then if I know I may use a little elbow grease for the day as I work in commercial real estate. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Sheen is upset after Richards reportedly did not allow him to take part in a holiday trip with her and their daughters Lola and Sam without explanation.
Charlie Sheen apparently is angry after he allegedly was left out of ex-wife Denise Richards and their children's holiday plan. According to TMZ, the "Twisted" actress told her ex-husband this weekend that he was not allowed to join her and daughters Sam and Lola for a family Christmas trip. Sources said that Richards did not reveal the reason.
Sheen later took to Twitter to vent his frustration. He wrote on Sunday, December 15, "More like a feeble 'K'. The lie is over. I'm done being treated like a relative with a one-way ticket. c #DuhNeese."
In the Twitter post which apparently is directed at Richards, Sheen attached a photo of the former couple's wedding souvenir. The disturbing photo shows a wooden Rawlings baseball which is chopped off into several pieces and a knife on the table. The bat features an inscription which reads, "Congratulations Denise & Charlie. June 15, 2002. Have a home run of a life."
Another source, however, said that Richards was confused with Sheen's anger. According to the source, Sheen was still welcomed to Richards' trip.
Sheen and Richards split in 2006 after four years of marriage. The couple has two daughters together, 9-year-old Sam and 8-year-old Lola. Richards also has a 2-year-old daughter Eloise whom she adopted in 2011.

Reigning world triathlon champion Emma Moffatt will know after this weekend whether she can start her title defence on April 11 in Sydney.
Moffatt will test her shoulder with a hard swim session, most likely on Saturday, before making the final call.
She was named in a team of 11 men and four women for round one of the world championships series, which starts and finishes at the Sydney Opera House.
Moffatt has recovered from the fractured shoulder she suffered in a January bike crash, but remains unsure of her swim fitness.
"I will be encouraging Emma to make the call on the weekend, we'd like the organisers to know seven days out (from the race)," said Australian Institute of Sport triathlon coach Shaun Stephens.
Moffatt is happy with her bike and run form, but will not race in Sydney if her swimming is off the pace.
"Everything is going well at this stage, so I will continue doing a fair bit of work in the pool and see how I feel over the weekend," she said.
"It all depends on my swimming - how I handle the volume of work and whether I have the speed to keep up.
"Overall, though, I'm feeling good."
Under the format of the seven-race series, the Beijing Olympics bronze medallist can miss Sydney and remain in contention for the world title.
As expected, Beijing Olympics gold medallist Emma Snowsill was not picked as she regains full fitness.
Snowsill suffered a hip injury last year and more recently has battled a virus.
Felicity Abram, Emma Jackson and Felicity Sheedy-Ryan are the other members of the women's team, while Annabel Luxford is out because of shin splints.
Brad Kahlefeldt is the top Australian men's hope after his win last weekend at the Mooloolaba World Cup.
Fellow Beijing Olympian Courtney Atkinson is also in the team, but his form is uncertain after an illness.
Three-time world champion Peter Robertson and veteran Greg Bennett are the other big names in the men's team.
The race will start and finish at the Sydney Opera House, last used as a triathlon venue when the sport made its Olympics debut in 2000.
Bennett won on the Sydney course in 1999 and Robertson was successful there in 2000, a few months before the Olympics.

Assemblywoman Galef Hosts New York State Commissioner of Taxation and Finance
"Everything You Always Wanted to Know about New York State Taxes (But Were Afraid to Ask)"
May 23, 2012
State Assemblywoman Sandy Galef invites the public to join her on, Thursday, June 7th from 7-9pm at the Cortlandt Town Hall, 1 Heady Street, Cortlandt Manor, to meet with NYS Commissioner of Taxation and Finance Thomas H. Mattox to discuss taxation, tax laws, and to ask questions about important issues that impact individuals and business owners in New York State. Topics to be discussed include: learning about the recent changes to tax rates and programs in New York State, the Department's focus on compliance through more effective taxpayer services, STAR exemptions, and property assessments throughout New York State. The commissioner will also field questions from the audience during the forum. Thomas H. Mattox, the New York State Commissioner of Taxation and Finance, will speak and answer questions concerning taxation and its impacts on those living in New York State. Commissioner Mattox has served in his position since January 2011. The Department of Taxation and Finance recently merged with the Office of Real Property Services in order to consolidate all tax related matters in New York State into one department. "I'm so pleased that Commissioner Mattox will be joining me at my upcoming forum. I hope that many of my constituents will join this discussion to understand and ask questions about the recent changes to New York State tax law and the actions of the Department. I think it is important that people come out to learn about what is happening on this front in Albany, and equally important that my constituents inform the Commissioner about issues here, in our district," concluded Galef. For more information and/or directions contact the Assemblywoman's office by e-mail at email@example.com or by phone at 914-941-1111.

From voter ID laws in Indiana to harder registration laws in Florida, the fix is in. Republicans made big gains in state legislatures in an off year election. They know they can't win on the national level, so they are trying to use this advantage to tip the scales in 2012. The paramount attempt being the move in Pennsylvania to change the electoral vote apportionment.
Republican's can't win a fair election, so they're trying (again) to rig the game.

One will certainly happen in the 2008 draft, which begins June 5 at 2 p.m. The Rays picked No. 1 overall last year, taking Vanderbilt lefthander David Price with the top selection. They stand first in line again this year after finishing with the worst record in baseball again in 2007. Whether the Commodores will produce the top overall pick again remains to be seen, but the team has produced the No. 1 prospect for a second straight season.

ATLANTA The company with the nation's largest chain of Chevrolet dealerships violated federal labor law when it fired thousands of employees last month, according to a lawsuit filed by a former worker.
Edward Kratzel, who worked at a Bill Heard Enterprises Inc. dealership in Las Vegas, filed the lawsuit Friday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in northern Alabama. That is where Columbus, Ga.-based Bill Heard sought bankruptcy protection on Sept. 28 after shuttering its remaining dealerships four days earlier.
The company, which had operated in seven states, said its 14 dealerships were losing from $2 million to $5 million a month because of a drop in sales coupled with a lack of available credit.
The lawsuit against Bill Heard and about two dozen affiliated companies claims they violated employees' rights under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act. The WARN Act says companies must give at least 60 days advance written notice of firings and continue to pay certain wages, salary and benefits during the notice period, the lawsuit said.
"It's time for 'Mr. Big Volume,' as Mr. Heard called himself, to ensure that his employees survive this transition in accordance with the law," Kratzel's lawyer Jack A. Raisner, of New York, said in a statement.
Fred Caruso, a spokesman for Bill Heard Enterprises, said in an e-mail that the company had no comment on the lawsuit.
The company closed 13 dealerships in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, Tennessee and Texas on Sept. 24. It had closed its Scottsdale, Ariz., dealership on Sept. 12.
Kratzel's lawyers are seeking class action status for the lawsuit to include all people who were "terminated without cause" at Bill Heard-owned operations in those seven states on or about Sept. 24.
"Employees of the Bill Heard companies around the nation should have been given more time to prepare for the closing of company facilities," Kratzel said in his lawyer's statement. "Because of the WARN Act, we hope that this lawsuit will prevent employers like Bill Heard from avoiding their obligations to the workers who helped him generate billions of dollars of revenue through the years."
Two employees of the company's Huntsville, Ala., sued on Sept. 26 in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, accusing the company of wrongly laying them off without any notice and had also requested class action status. Raisner said when the company filed for bankruptcy, all pending litigation was frozen, including that labor suit.
He said the new lawsuit was filed in bankruptcy court and is "particularly tailored to optimize the employees' claims in the bankruptcy context."

On Tuesday, Jan. 18, residents of Indian Land Fire District will have the opportunity to let Lancaster County Council know whether they want to pay an extra $75 each year for enhanced fire protection.
The fee would help Indian Land Volunteer Fire Department pay for permanent improvements and capital expenditures, including buildings, equipment, infrastructure, full-time firefighters and more.
Retiring Lancaster County Parks and Recreation Commission director Frank Overcash, in assessing his work over 28 years, was expectedly modest about the job he's done.
"All I did was keep something running," Overcash said.
He did keep it running, but in the right direction.
There has been a lot of progress at the recreation commission during Overcash's 28 years of service, including the last five as director.
Poll after poll reveals that 80 percent or more of Americans claim to be Christian.
So now this Christian nation is ruled by an elite ruling class of atheists who "We the People" chose to represent us.
Recently, our U.S. Congress proved this in a crowning act to choose evil over good by declaring God's law to be wrong. Our military now must surrender to a minority of gay activists.
I was in the military. The military is not a home base for righteous behavior.
I would like to thank The Lancaster News for printing the photo of the veterans monument that will be built in Heath Springs. The caption with the picture tells readers that the Heath Springs Veterans Association plans to honor its veterans with an 18-foot monument.
As Paul Harvey would say, "Now for the rest of the story."
This will be a veterans monument and not a memorial. The monument is for all Lancaster County veterans of all branches of service from the Spanish American War to the present day, which includes active-duty servicemen and women.
It has been more than 20 years since Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm took over as the No. 1 news story. The American military performed in a superb manner and the war was soon brought to a successful conclusion.
The unit is preparing to have a reunion on March 26 to commemorate the end of the Desert Storm conflict and to gather as many of the former members together as possible.
First of all, a belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Christmas weekend with family and friends.
With the new year comes a new Congress, the 112th, which officially began Jan. 5. As the real business at hand gets cranked up, there is a good bit to report.
Lots of folks have asked about our local offices. Our first office will be in Rock Hill, on Ebenezer Road. This was a fairly simple decision, as more than 50 percent of the District 5 population lives within 20 miles of there.
The dreams of a white Christmas were fulfilled for many South Carolinians this year, with snow beginning on Christmas Day in the upstate and moving throughout most of the state on Dec. 26.
For S.C. Department of Transportation maintenance employees, a white Christmas means a working Christmas.
Maintenance crews in 44 of the 46 counties worked over the holiday weekend, plowing snow from the roadways or placing anti-icing chemicals on roads and bridges in an effort to prevent ice from developing.
Today is a historical day for Lancaster Police Department as its first female police chief takes the reins from retiring Police Chief Hugh White.
Lancaster City Council voted unanimously Dec. 28 to appoint Harlean Howard as the Lancaster Police Department's next chief.
She succeeds White, who has been with the department since 1982 and was chief for the past 11 years.
Howard is no newcomer to law enforcement. She got her start with the Philadelphia Police Department in 1978 and worked there until 1989.

Nini Rosso Biography
Celeste Rosso, 19 September 1926, Italy, d. 1994. As a teenager, Rosso ran away from home through parental pressure to pursue an academic career. After he was found playing trumpet in a Nice night spot, his parents relented, and he formed a small orchestra that garnered a work schedule beyond Italy to include, on one occasion, a tour of India. After a residency on Radio Turin, Rosso relocated to Rome where he became recognized as a formidable mainstream jazz player. Nevertheless, his fortune would be made in pop after he was contracted by Durium late in 1962. His debut single, La Ballenta Della Tromba, sold well nationally but 1963s Concerto Disperato - also self-composed - entered charts as far afield as Japan. Rossos biggest commercial moment, however, was with Il Silenzio - theme tune to 1965s The Legions Last Patrol starring Stewart Granger - which, co-written with Guglielmo Brazzo, was a variation on The Last Post. Despite a UK cover by Eddie Calvert and another in the USA by Al Hirt, the Rosso original was an international smash for which he received the first Common Market Gold Disc award in Hamburg.

The Black Forest: home of the world-famous cuckoo clocks, the red pom-pom hats, the iconic farmhouses and the legendary gateau. It is a place where traditional crafts like clockmaking and customs such as the Alemannic fasnacht carnival are cherished. In 1937 the area around the Feldberg (the highest peak in Germany that doesn't count as a true mountain) became the first conservation reserve in Baden-Württemberg.
Today, the region is the standard-bearer for sustainable tourism – from transport and eco-certified accommodation through to the use of renewable energies.
On track for sustainability
Train travel with Deutsche Bahn is the eco-friendly way to travel to the Black Forest. And any of 10,000 accommodation providers will provide holidaymakers with a Konus card: a visitor ticket and travel card rolled into one, valid on all local public bus and train services in a region spanning 11,000 square kilometres.
Free spirits may opt for an e-bike, with more than 200 hire shops and charging points across the region offering electromobility. In Königsfeld, Germany's first 'solar commune', you can even charge electric vehicles for free or hire electric mopeds for low-noise, zero-emission touring.
Active and healthy
The untamed landscape of rugged mountains and deep gorges is a mecca for walkers and mountain bikers, and ever since the days of the Celts and the Alemanni, the rolling hills of the Upper Rhine have been prized for their sunny climate. It was the Romans who brought winegrowing and thermal baths to the region. Discover this exceptional landscape with all your senses and get to know the people and their customs. In winter you can go skiing, snow-shoeing and ice-skating or go climbing in frozen waterfalls. But you don't have to brave the snow to enjoy a natural health boost in the Black Forest – the region's hot springs are known for their healing powers.
Regional cuisine in a class of its own
Whether in an exclusive restaurant or a cosy village inn, you'll discover that life here tastes good. Traditional hospitality, local produce and an appreciation of regional, seasonal food find their greatest expression in the dark, full-flavoured ham, crusty bread and the famous Black Forest gateau. And then there are the Baden wines: vines flourish in the farming and winegrowing villages of the Markgräflerland, Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg regions, as well as in Breisgau and Ortenau, producing authentic wines that are enjoyed by connoisseurs the world over.

Jones's leap of faith finds pit of despair
Sacramento, California
Page Tools
Marion Jones competes in the long jump at Sacramento.
The long jump pit was supposed to be Marion Jones's place of redemption on Monday night. Instead, it turned into another chasm of doubt.
Jones, the five-time Olympic medallist, already had lost in the 100 metres on Saturday, failing to make the team to defend her Olympic medal.
On Monday, in another day of struggle in the long jump, she advanced to tomorrow's finals with a leap that was more than 30 centimetres shorter than her best jump in high school.
The five-time Olympic medallist finished only seventh in qualifying, her longest leap of 6.39 metres well off her 2004 American best of 6.93 last month. She left the track without knowing if she would qualify.
If the 100 metres proved that Jones lacked her usual acceleration and form on a straightaway, Monday's sluggish performance only reinforced that something was missing. She missed all of the 2003 season to have a baby, and has been scrutinised for her role in the BALCO drug scandal. Jones has vehemently denied taking performance-enhancing drugs and has not been charged.
Even if Jones makes it to the Olympics in the long jump, there is no guarantee that she will win a medal. Her personal-best of 7.31 was set in 1998.
Jones, 28, and Grace Upshaw are the only Americans who meet the Olympic A-standard in the event so far, giving them the inside track to Athens unless their rivals have the leaps of their lives in the final.
Alvin Harrison became the third of six athletes competing here while fighting drug charges to fail in their bid for Athens. He was seventh in his 400 metres semi-final heat in 45.85 seconds.
Calvin Harrison, Alvin's brother who also faces drug charges, reached Thursday's 400 final by finishing third in his heat in 44.98. He joins 1500 runner Regina Jacobs and sprinter Chryste Gaines as charged runners with Athens hopes.
"The fact they are trying to come after Calvin and I for non-analytical positives, it's wrong," Alvin Harrison said.
Tim Montgomery, world record-holder in the 100 and father of Jones's one-year-old son, failed to reach Athens by finishing seventh in the 100 final. He also faces a lifetime ban based on evidence in the BALCO steroid case.
