I'd just like to say a hug thank you for all of the work you guys put into the wiki. I know this must be some seriously hard work with tonnes of discussion and so much information to organize.
As well as saying thank you i'd also like the show you guys a little something i've been working on. I wouldn't have been able to come up with such an idea and the insipration to do these ideas withouth the information of this wiki.
The project is was working on? A story which revolves around a place callled Sholaria.
Sholaria is a world that is split into 11 Kingdoms, 10 of the kingdoms represent a particular element. However, Kingdom 11 is a Kingdom that was built to represent the unification and peace between the other 10 Kingdoms. This story talks about the adventures of Unit V, a squad of the Kingdom 11 army that undergoes a series of missions which, bit by bit, uncover a sinister plan.

Discussion in 'General WWE' started by Star Lord, May 15, 2013.
Name who is the most overrated of all time!
Great Khali. By calling him a wrestler at all it's overrated.
Most overrated of all time is a loaded question but I'd have to put Goldberg up there. His name is often brought up in discussions about Hogan/Austin/Rock/Flair/Andre/etc. because his hottest peak is comparable to those of Hogan and Austin and Rock but he was the most one dimensional out of all of them. This is coming from someone who liked him.
Lol, you're always right. I don't know why people bother making threads, if they want a correct answer they should just PM you.

Veteran investigative reporter Jack Stafford leaves California to take a job with a newspaper in Upstate New York, where he discovers a citizen rebellion modeling itself after Edward Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang.
In The Fracking War, activists use sabotage to defend against what they perceive as industrial terrorism, perpetrated by multinational corporations' environmentally damaging practice of hydrofracking for natural gas and oil. Set in the pristine Finger Lakes wine country of New York and neighboring Pennsylvania, Stafford and the newspaper staff witness the tragic impacts of hydrofracking - the health risks, water and air pollution, and a rapid increase in crime.
The fictional events of this book were pulled from newspaper headlines offering a glimpse into an escalating conflict between citizens who want to protect their communities and the out-of-control expansion of the natural gas industry's controversial method of extracting natural gas.

"Disappointing narration."
I was so keen to hear this book but the author was not the best choice to read it. His narration was disjointed, patchy, hesitant and had no " flow". Indeed, if I hadn't been aware that he was the author I would have thought he'd found some barely literate person to read it. Harsh criticism yes, but having listened to skilled and articulate narrators throughout my association with Audible, I am doubly disappointed and have returned it,sadly.

Ling stays as Cats captain
The Geelong board on Tuesday night accepted the recommendation of the player leadership group for 2011, led by returning captain Cameron Ling.
Ling will return for his second season as Cats captain with midfield gun Joel Selwood elevated to the position of vice-captain.
Jimmy Bartel, Joel Corey, Corey Enright, James Kelly and Harry Taylor round out the the leadership group.
It is the same leadership group from the 2010 season minus superstar Gary Ablett, who was announced earlier this month as the inaugural captain of new club the Gold Coast Suns.
Colin Carter was officially elected Geelong president following the departure of long-serving president Frank Costa.
Gareth Andrews was appointed vice-president, with the Cats board electing the president and vice-president at the first board meeting of the year, as per the club's constitution.
Costa was appointed as club patron, a position that had been vacant since the passing of long-time patron Alex Popescu last year.

Antique Russian Icon, November Menologium XIX century 47x36.5cm
The Menologium (from the Greek Mineja, month) is a liturgical book that collects the prayers and the hymns dedicated to each Saint for all the days and the months of the year.
The icons with this name used to represent the saints and the Feasts whose memory was celebrated in the liturgical Menologi.
This icon presents the sequence of the Saints celebrated in the liturgical calendar of November.
The Saints are depicted in a standing position, with natural poses and generally facing one another: they are hardly ever facing the viewers, which is usually a typical trait of the Menologium icons.
Among the Feasts, we can notice the Synaxis of the Archangels Michael and Gabriel (8th November, in the middle of the second line) and the Presentation of Mart at the temple (21st November, fourth line).
The traditional scene of the burial of Saint Barlaam of Khutyn (6th November) is replaced by the figure of the Saint Himself.
The composition of the Feasts is different from the traditional one of the Menologi: in fact they reproduce the complete iconographic scheme of the Feast, and they are developed horizontally.
Origin: Moscow Russia
Material: Wood, Levkas
Technique: Egg tempera
Measurements: 47x36.5 cm
Epoch: XIX century.
This icon comes with a certificate of origin and guarantee, together with export documents and the expert report made by the Russian Ministry of Cultural Heritage.

Laila Ali had 'special bond' with father Muhammad Ali
Laila Ali shared a "special connection" with her father Muhammad Ali that none of her other siblings had.
The retired professional boxer is convinced she was closer to her dad - who tragically passed away earlier this month aged 74 - than any of her brothers and sisters because they both shared a passion for the combat sport.
Speaking to 'Entertainment Tonight', the 38-year-old beauty said: "We all had a connection with our father, but mine, unlike any other, because we both did the same thing. We've both been hit upside the head, and hit some people upside the head, and it's a whole different thing."
However, although they shared something "unlike any other", Laila has admitted she and the sporting legend had locked horns on numerous occasions over the years but believes that just led to them having more respect for one another.
She said: "We've bumped heads over the years. But we had so much respect for one another, and that's something I'll cherish and always respect with my father."
Ali - who tragically passed away on June 3 following a 32-year battle with Parkinson's disease - was laid to rest on Friday (10.06.16) in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.
Thousands of fans, fellow celebrities and preachers from a number of different faiths around the world gathered at the site to pay their respect to the iconic sportsman.
Laila took to her Instagram account the day after the funeral to thank fans for the "love and support" they've dished out to her family since the news of Ali's passing broke.
The sporting beauty uploaded a collage of her father on her Facebook account alongside the heartfelt caption: "Thanks for all of the love and support that has always been given to my father and my family! I truly appreciate all of your messages and condolences! I know wherever you are, you are surrounded by LOVE & LIGHT! (sic)."
Ali leaves behind daughters Laila, Rasheda, Hana, Maryum, Jamillah, Khaliah and Miya, as well as sons Muhammad Jr and Asaad.

IBM ThinkPad X60s
Related articles
The IBM Thinkpad X60s is a small light laptop with a Core Duo or Core 2 Duo processor and Intel graphics. It has no internal optical drive. You can see the specs at ThinkWiki, a wonderful resource with additional information.
First note that this laptop is available with two different processors.
- Core Duo
- This processor requires the i686 (32-bit) version of Arch Linux. The two RAM slots physically support 2x2GB=4GB RAM. However with a 32-bit kernel only up to ~3GB will be accessible. Unfortunately due to a chipset limitation, even compiling a kernel with the Physical Address Extension (PAE) option (CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G) [1][dead link 2014-12-30] will not allow access to more than 3GB.
- Core 2 Duo
- This processor can run the x86_64 (64-bit) version of Arch Linux, and this is recommended in this case. The full 4GB RAM will be available with the standard Arch x86_64 kernel.
A basic Arch Linux installation will do just fine for almost everything. Select the i686 or x86_64 version as indicated above. Install from a USB CD drive or a USB flash drive following the instructions in the Installation guide.
It is easiest to do the initial installation with a wired ethernet connection which you can set up in the installation menu. In the base install package selection you can install the packages required for the wireless networking
[*] wireless-tools [*] iwlwifi-3945-ucode
See Intel graphics. The required driver is xf86-video-intel.
Gigabit ethernet works out of the box with the e1000e kernel module.

A little peek into my life via Instagram, I always enjoy seeing these posts so I thought I would give it a go and show you what I've been up to lately.
- We went to see a mortgage advisor at the bank last week as we've finally saved up enough pennies for a house deposit. We wore matching Converse for the occasion.
- I made a little vow to myself that if I go somewhere and there is a slushy available I will be treating myself. I especially love a Tango Ice Blast - this one was from the cinema when we went to see The Inbetweeners 2.
- My little brother Jack came to hang out with me at the weekend, we played with stickers and practiced spelling his name out. We also did a lot of tickling. Love that little cutie.
- A couple of weeks ago me and the boyfriend popped to Bedford for the weekend, it's so pretty down by the river.
- I treated my Mum to a day out at the theatre for her birthday, we went to see Shakespeare in Love and I would really recommend it. It is very similar to the film and the costumes were amazing, I also loved the Elizabethan style music.
- And last but not least, I've really enjoyed hanging out with my little sister over the summer holidays. She's grown into such a little madam but is very sweet and funny! She'll be 3 next month!
Leave me a link to your Instagram and I'll check it out.

She wants Williams replaced
I write in protest of the Walter Williams columns. Please consider replacing his work with another writer who doesn't constantly harp on the topic of how stupid and evil liberals are.
The June 10 column suggesting all liberals openly support massive death of populations in order to conserve resources was the final straw. What an ugly, vile premise. How hurtful and damaging.
I and many of my friends here in Lubbock believe our government can be a positive force for the good of our population if we work to make it responsive and support it with adequate funding.
We accept the label "progressive" or "liberal" as representing in a broad way our beliefs. None of this makes us evil or stupid people. We are part of this paper's audience, although the editorials frequently act to drive us away.
Please find a writer who will offer constructive ideas to replace Walter Williams. If government doesn't work, it is largely because instead of trying to work together and accepting each side must compromise, too often the approach of conservatives is to refuse to compromise, throw stones and call names. We should be better than that.

We have examined the modulation by internal protons of cyclic nucleotide–gated (CNG) channels cloned from bovine olfactory receptor cells and retinal rods. CNG channels were studied in excised inside–out membrane patches from Xenopus laevis oocytes previously injected with the mRNA encoding for the subunit~1 of olfactory or rod channels. Channels were activated by cGMP or cAMP, and currents as a function of cyclic nucleotide concentrations were measured as pHi varied between 7.6 and 5.0. Increasing internal proton concentrations caused a partial blockage of the single–channel current, consistent with protonation of a single acidic site with a pK1 of 4.5–4.7, both in rod and in olfactory CNG channels. Channel gating properties were also affected by internal protons. The open probability at low cyclic nucleotide concentrations was greatly increased by lowering pHi, and the increase was larger when channels were activated by cAMP than by cGMP. Therefore, internal protons affected both channel permeation and gating properties, causing a reduction in single–channel current and an increase in open probability. These effects are likely to be caused by different titratable groups on the channel.

I'd like to criticize the fact that despite being a fan creation and not anything official, Necrologue is mentioned more as if it's official rather than a fan creation. Yes, they did allow the team to use the license, and yes, Frictional Games did help out, but they didn't approve it in terms of canon and they weren't part of its development.
I will admit, I am not an admin and have not laid down any rules, but considering that most wikis only mention fan works in the trivia or somewhere similar, I'd say it also applies here.
I'd like to get some discussion going on the quality of this wiki. Considering that, from what I remember, the founder of this wiki basically fell off and hasn't been active on the wiki ever since, I might adopt it in the future if I'm more motivated to improve the wiki than I am now.

TL Davis hits the mark...right between the eyes.
Believe his words or not.
He is absolutely correct.
There is greatness in living as God intended, free and in dominion of no one but ourselves. Where we reject God and look to Man to provide for us, we fall into the trap of every other despotic force in the world. When we look to the state to save us, rather than our Christian brethren, we sacrifice everything noble in Mankind. Wherever the Church has stood aside, ruin has ensued: hospitals and medical care, schools and universities and above all government.
Search yourself.

Countless other Patriots know the truth.
Our Founding Fathers knew the truth.

A Chat with Bill Gates
I recently spoke with Microsoft chairman and chief software architect Bill Gates. Here is an excerpt of our discussion; the complete interview is available at www.pcmag.com/gates.
MJM: You have introduced all sorts of new platforms over the last year. In particular, we've seen Smart Displays, Tablet PCs, Media Center, and SPOT (Smart Personal Object Technology). Which is the one that you've been the closest to?
BG: The common thread for everything I do is this idea of a Web services architecture. That means taking components of software and systems and having them be self-describing, so that you can aim them, ask them what their capabilities are, and communicate with them using a standard protocol.
For example, think of a data center where you have a lot of PCs. You want to write a program that monitors all the PC servers and steps in if some service is running slow, or load balancing is needed, or something is not running. In the past you would have said, "Oh, you need a management architecture to do that."
MJM: What technologies are you personally using now?
BG: I use a tablet all the time. All my notes are on it. I didn't used to wear a watch, but now I have a SPOT watch. Because it has my calendar, it knows when I'm going home, and it knows that at that time, there are about four pieces of traffic data that I care a lot about receiving. The effect of glanceability is very important with these watches.
MJM: Let's switch gears and talk about end user applications. What do you see coming in the application area?
BG: I am a bit disappointed in several things. If I'm going to get software because my kid wants to learn eighth-grade geometry or something like that, it's out there, but in some ways it's not at its peak of vibrancy.
So the question is how to improve that. I think part of the way to improve it is to have software that you get online. It doesn't all run on the server but actually downloads onto the PC. There should be some type of guarantee from us, or whoever is offering it, that it won't interfere with any of the other software on your machine. You should essentially feel very comfortable trying it out. We need to bring the way that things interact with the system to a whole new level of strength.
MJM: The consumer software market isn't doing all that well, is it?
BG: No, it's not. If you benchmark it by evaluating the number of apps that you buy per PC or that you use per PC, it hasn't grown for many years. I think what I've just talked about can help, though. You could say hope springs eternal, but I have very concrete views on how we can improve the framework and ultimately have Microsoft be a bit of a showcase in pushing the new model I've described.

you don't because you are a girl, because he goes for the kiss first
Honestly - it's just a go with it kind of thing. Don't over think and just enjoy the moment. My first kiss, I remember there was the initial, oh god, I'm being kissed I don't know what I'm doing, but after a second I just forgot about that and went with it. And honestly, it comes pretty natural.
If you're unsure just copy what he does.
If you want to prepare for your first kiss... don't. It's going to come naturally. Follow his lead, and you should be fine.
link that was kinda like my first kiss, when the moment is right just for it.
We were laughing having a good time, we were smiling and staring at each other so I got on my tiptoes and kissed him :) simple and sweet
lips to lips and kiss lol

South African-Greek Cheese Pie
Recipe by Zurie
This very delicious pie is my version of the Greek Tiropita, tweaked considerably. Please note that substitions can be used, i.e. pine nuts instead of walnuts, and I think pickled red bell peppers will work instead of piquante peppers (peppadews), although nothing approximates the wonderful tang of piquante peppers. Metric weights and measures are given in brackets. Try and find smoked mozzarella -- it does make a difference to the taste! It's an unashamedly rich pie, of course! Can be served as a vegetarian main dish with a healthy mixed salad, or in small portions with ovenbaked chicken pieces. If you use a larger dish, which will yield a flatter pie, don't cover the top with the phyllo (cover lightly with foil instead), and cut into small squares as a snack food. Prep time includes grating some of the cheeses.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 phyllo pastry sheets
- 3 tablespoons butter (OR olive oil)
- 7 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (200g)
- 3 1⁄2 ounces cheddar cheese, mature, roughly grated (100g)
- 4 1⁄2 ounces mozzarella cheese, roughly grated, pref smoked (125g)
- 2 ounces pecorino cheese, roughly grated (50g. Parmesan or Grana Padano can be used)
- 2 ounces walnuts (50 g, roughly broken, or use pine nuts)
- 4 -6 tablespoons peppadew peppers, pickled, finely diced (OR use pickled, jarred red bell pepper)
- 1 cup spring onion, chopped, white and green parts (about 2 bunches)
- 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs, dried (shops often sell it)
- 3 eggs, largest size
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (or other pepper sauce)
- 2 tablespoons milk (or less, see directions)
Directions See How It's Made
- Oven: 400 deg F, or 375 deg F for fan ovens. (200 deg C, 180 deg C fan ovens).
- I used a 7" x 7" x 1 1/2" glass oven dish, which is small but just the right size. Oil dish very lightly.
- Open the phyllo pastry, lightly butter or the top sheet, and line the dish. Don't cut off the overhang. Carry on like this, lightly pressing the next 2 sheets on to the previous ones. Leave the overhang as is.
- Mix the cheeses, nuts, chopped peppers and spring onions in a bowl. Toss until well mixed but work lightly. Add the breadcrumbs and toss through.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl until foamy, and add the Tabasco to the eggs if you are using it. Add to the cheeses, and mix through.
- You will need very little milk -- this depends on your cheeses and eggs -- so as to "wet" the mixture but not saturate it.There should only be the tiniest bit of liquid on the bottom of the bowl if you lift the mixture.
- Scrape into the phyllo-lined dish, and smooth top. Fold the phyllo overhang over the cheese, and oil the bits lightly. The overhang should be adequate to cover the pie. If it does not, it doesn't matter. (S A phyllo sheets are quite large, so it all depends on that!)
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for 40 - 45 minutes, turning DOWN heat to 350 deg F/180 deg C after about 10 minutes, or less for convection/fan ovens. Watch that the top does not burn.
- This is a rich dish, and can be a main vegetarian dish, with a nice salad. If you use a flatter dish, it can be cut into small squares as a snack.

Elves are a sentient race in Annwn that has two main population groups. The Westfolk live mostly in the Westlands and the Southern Elves on islands far to the south of Bardek. They are both refugees from the destruction of The Seven Cities which lie to the west of the Westlands, with the Southern Elves being the descendants of the urban population and the Westfolk being the descendants of the rural population.
The Elves have an ancient grudge against the Horsekin which destroyed their cities, and the Westfolk have often been in conflict with the men of Eldidd, though since the era of Pertyc Maelwaedd a truce has slowly developed.
The two groups were reunited on the Grasslands in 1118, after Evandar directed the Southern Elves to go back.
The Elves are the people of the element of Air.

''Exhibiting women's bodies for commercial purposes is the height of oppression''
One morning I browsed my news feed and it was awash with sad comments about Emily Kachote who had been crowned Miss Zimbabwe earlier on. The remarks in lifestyle and entertainment news articles were sad and unfortunate. Some mischievous and misguided Zimbabweans thought she is ''not beautiful and classy enough''. My reaction to the stories was obvious. I frowned and cursed. Which I rarely do unless I am highly irritated.

The Nikon 35mm f1.8G ED put in a good performance and proved to be a worthy member of Nikon's line-up of f1.8 primes. It's a step-up in performance compared to the old Nikon AF 35/2.0D in every aspect: sharpness, contrast, coma, light fall-off and bokeh. Plus it has a built-in silent focus-motor.
Good to very good quality in the DX image-circle., Quiet and reliable AF operation., Weather sealing at the lens-mount., Little flare/glare.
Longitudinal CA often seen in the background., Weak performance in the extreme FX-corners., Somewhat nervous Bokeh.
Some buyers will treasure the extra f-stop of lens speed and the additional selective-focusing opportunities that the wider aperture brings. The chances are, therefore, that anybody who can live with the DX-format restriction and who won't need a macro capability is likely to be highly delighted by...
The AF-S Nikkor 35mm F1.8G DX is a lens which certainly caused a degree of dismay on its release, with many Nikon fans disappointed by the decision to make it compatible with the DX format only.
Excellent image quality when stopped down just a little, Fast and accurate autofocus with full-time manual override, Generally attractive rendition of out-of-focus regions ('bokeh'), Resistant to flare, Low price
Slightly soft and low in contrast wide open, Lateral chromatic aberration somewhat higher than traditional 50mm 'standard' primes, Prone to purple fringing and bokeh chromatic aberration, most visible at large apertures
Is the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens right for you? Learn all you need to know about the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens in The-Digital-Picture.com's review!
Among DSLR shooters, there are two types of people: photographers who prefer using zoom lenses and photographers who prefer using primes. I am most certainly a member of the latter group.
If you're a Nikon shooter and you've been contemplating buying a reasonably priced, professional prime lens, you should give serious consideration to the new NIKKOR AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8G. What makes this lens so special?
This compact wide aperture lens for DX compatible Nikon digital SLRs costs around £170 and provides a similar angle of view to a 50mm lens used on a 35mm camera and sports a silent focusing motor.
The first DX Nikkor with the classic advantages of a high-speed "normal" lens ($220, street), this 52mm full-frame equivalent is also the fastest DX and widest nonfisheye digital-only Nikkor prime.
I got this lens for low-light event and general purpose walk-around use, and it's great for this. It's light and yields nice photos with good color, contrast and detail on my D4 and D750. It's just OK at f1.8, and really gets sharp by f2.8.
Consistent Output, Durable, Easily Interchangeable, Lightweight
Slow Focus
One of the best prime lens for DX format. A must for all photography enthusiasts. Keep them zoom lenses aside and try thus prime you will realise what you've been missing. The wide aperture gets dreamy bokeh and will make your subject pop.
The good prime lens for the price
If it's Bokeh you're after, take a look at the 50mm instead. Better for portraits on an APS-C/DX body too.
A fine lens. Small, light and FAST.
Avoid Always.Deals. They advertise as having the full five year Nikon warranty but ship grey market imports with ZERO warranty.
This was a Christmas gift for my daughter who is in a secondary school taking photography. She asked for this lens specifically and was surprised to actually see it over the holidays! She loves it.
Consistent Output, Durable, Easily Interchangeable, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Lightweight, Rugged, Strong Construction
Buy this for your prime lens, use for portraits, wide angle, sharp, and fast. It will give you a background blur for portraits, better than the 50mm, and faster!! Using it with my Nikon D3300.
Economical compact sharp fast lens
In a world of zoom lenses I had a need for a single focal length lens that opened down to f1.8. This lens fills the need admirably, good sharpness, easy to use and carry. If you have the same need, I recommend this lens.
Easily Interchangeable, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Nice Bokeh, Rugged, Strong Construction
I used the lens for a portrait and product shoot. 35mm is a perfect length, every photographer should have one of these.
Fast / accurate auto-focus, Lightweight, Nice Bokeh
I was going to change cameras. I have a Nikon D 7000. Great indoor photos with either lens. Outdoor landscape photos did not have the crispness and clarity I wanted and expected from Nikon. Buying this Prime lens was the answer to that.
I went back and forth wondering if I should get the 35mm or 50mm. I went with the 35mm and am really pleased. The only downside is not having VR. Overall great pictures and awesome Bokeh! Bokeh is the main reason I wanted to get a fixed lens and this is a great start for me.
The lens is amazing, takes in a lot of light, inside the house especially. Outside it's very sharp and takes great pictures, it is a fixed lens, which means you do the zooming with your legs, but the results are great.

Alan Hutcheson
The George Bush (the elder) Intelligence Center
Langley, Virginia
The next day (April 13th)
Hank Berringer, recently minted Assistant Deputy Director of the CIA, looked at the round, slightly glistening man sitting in front of his desk. Berringer made as if to lift up a dark green, one-inch three-ring binder that was sitting on his desk and then seemed to think better of it. Instead he tapped it.
"Just how sure are you about the accuracy of this report?" he asked the round man, whose name was Tad Rushmore. Mr. Rushmore was Senior Research Historian for the CIA, and had held that post for over twenty years.
"I did have my doubts, at first," said Rushmore. "Just another apocryphal Hoover story to go with all the rest. But as you can see there is a nearly perfect statistical match in all of the important evaluative criteria. Add that to the current trails I found leading to Australia and Massachusetts and the conclusion is inescapable."
"And this all started when J. Edgar Hoover tried to rig the 1948 presidential election?"
"That was the genesis of the situation," said Rushmore.
"But he failed."
"In his objective, yes. But the fact that he was able to manipulate the system as far as he did is, well..."
"Not exactly the sort of news the American people are interested in hearing," Hank filled in the blank. "Or the administration."
"The fallout could be considerable."
"That's one way of putting it," said Berringer. His finger was poised to tap the binder again, but instead eased it away a couple of inches.
What it said in the binder was that in the late 1940's FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had commissioned a group of agencies-strictly without congressional knowledge or approval-which were answerable only to him. The agencies had been established around the country in twenty-six key voting regions and their sole purpose had been to influence, by any means possible, the outcome of the 1948 Presidential election. Hoover had apparently tired of Harry Truman's intrusive and restrictive style of leadership and was intent on ousting him in favor of a more pliable occupant in the White House. The Alphabet Agencies, so called because Hoover had simply assigned each of them a letter as identification, had been covertly funded with money from pork barrel projects that never existed, inserted into bills introduced on the House and Senate floors by members of Congress beholden to Hoover for earlier favors, mostly of the Mum's the Word variety. Only one of the honorable members of Congress had thought it proper to ask just what Mr. Hoover intended to do with his under the table money. His curiosity had been considerably dampened by the next day arrival of a packet of photographs, anonymously delivered to his office, which featured himself and a person who was not anyone's wife caught in moments of tender ecstasy. A promise of express home delivery of a second set was included in the envelope.
The Alphabet Agencies were generously funded, but in a triumph of the democratic system they did not succeed. And all would have been well if the only place one could find this potentially damning bit of American history was in the report on Hank Berringer's desk.
"I wouldn't have even brought it to your attention," said Rushmore, "if this curious combination of factors wasn't in play."
"You did the right thing," Berringer said. To himself he thought, "But I wish to hell you had plopped this cowpie on somebody else's desk." According to Rushmore's research the Alphabet Agencies, or at least one of them, had survived to present day. So chances were somebody knew something that could deeply compromise the position of The United States as World Leader and Sterling Example. Well, further compromise it, anyway.
It was Hank Berringer's job to make sure that didn't happen.
Actually, it was his job to find someone else to do it. In this case Hank knew it would have to be someone completely unconnected with any United States intelligence agency. Which just added another layer or two of unpredictability. Wasn't that just great.

Weisse Wand.
The footage is of a bill-board; an advertising hoarding that is made of a
fabric that would usually be adorned with adverts. It was filmed in
Hackney, in the autumn of 2006. It has now returned to its original
function as an advertising display. It uses lo-resolution digital
film footage and the sound was recorded at the same time as filming.
The work takes the fabric of an advertising hoarding, the raw material as such, and subverts its usual use-function to produce a sound and visual work. The local traffic passing nearby, recorded at the same event as filming, seems to affect the rippling fabric and produces a sound and visual combination that is surprisingly hypnotic in itself.
In a 1964 seminar, the psychoanalyst and theorist Jacques Lacan observed that the myth of the two painters; (Zeuxis and Parrhasius), reveals an interesting aspect of human cognition (1):
While animals are attracted to superficial appearances, humans are enticed by the idea of that which is hidden.
Zeuxis (of Heraclea) and Parrhasius (of Ephesus and later Athens) were painters who flourished during the 5th century BC. They are reported four hundred years later in the Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder to have staged a contest to determine which of the two was the greater artist.
When Zeuxis unveiled his painting of grapes, they appeared so luscious and inviting that birds flew down from the sky to peck at them. Zeuxis then asked Parrhasius to pull aside the curtain from his painting, only for Parrhasius to reveal the curtain itself was a painting, and Zeuxis was forced to concede defeat.
Zeuxis is rumoured to have said: 'I have deceived the birds, but Parrhasius has deceived Zeuxis.' In other words, while his work had managed to fool the eyes of birds, Parrhasius' work had deceived the eyes of an artist. (2)
The curtain relies on the desire of the viewer to see behind it, to maintain its illusion.
Advertising relies on a complex set of expectations that stem from the systemic desire of capitalist culture, to be able to perform its function. Without this, advertising would be a strange and functionless part of life, as it does not serve to educate or improve the situation of the population further in any real sense, only to enhance the chances of one particular product being sold over another.
The title Weisse Wand; blank canvas, directly relating to the now blank advertising hoarding, references the misconceived notion of a point zero, whereby the ideology of the state has in fact achieved its ultimate goal and complete success: by the population regarding this ideology as something so matter of fact, it is no longer regarded at all. It is accepted without question.
The title, references New Wave German film-making of the mid-70s; the Wim Wenders film Kings of the Road which ends with a close-up of a cinema billboard reading Weisse Wand meaning white screen, or blank slate, time for renewal. (3)
(1) Zeuxis and Parrhasius, Wikipedia the free encyclopaedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeuxis_and_Parrhasius)
(2) Slavoj Zizek takes this further in his book 'how to read Lacan', page 114, chapt. Lacan as a reader of Mohammad Boyeri)

MLB Franchise Notes: Rangers Suing Hicks Over Parking Agreement
Published April 13, 2011
WHERE IT ALL COMES FROM: Reds COO Phil Castellini said that the team gets "about half" of its revenue "from leaguewide revenue sharing, involving things like TV dollars and online sales." In Cincinnati, Steve Watkins reported the Reds generate "the rest locally," and "much of the local revenue is fairly stable, such as TV dollars." But tickets "can fluctuate wildly," and Castellini said, "Our biggest opportunity is to grow ticket revenue." The Reds are projecting an attendance increase of around 10% this season from 2 million last year to "2.2 million to 2.3 million." Castellini added that the team's season-ticket base is "just more than 11,000" (BIZJOURNALS.com, 4/12).
MONEY DRIES UP: In K.C., Sam Mellinger noted a "closer examination" of Royals Owner David Glass' "financial stewardship reveals just how low the Royals had sunk." The Royals "starting in the winter after the 2006 season" gave out the AL Central's "biggest free-agent contracts two years in a row." In '09, they "played with a franchise-record payroll approaching" $75M. That same year a "minor-league affiliate was added," and 11 front-office positions were "created in the first six months of the year." The Royals hired GM Dayton Moore in '06, and Glass "allowed Moore to create 17 new baseball operations positions in his first three years on the job, and budgeted enough to hire people with championship experience to fill most of those roles." But the Royals opened this season with a $35M payroll, "by far the smallest in baseball and the franchise's lowest since 2001." Glass said that he is "committed to fielding a winner," but Mellinger wrote it is "clear he won't do so at all costs." Mellinger: "Now, after more than a decade, the organization might finally be building toward a promising future. The catch? That future is predicated on the Royals' record crop of minor-league prospects making it to Kansas City and then staying here on long-term contracts" (K.C. STAR, 4/10).
DON'T BLAME THE GM: In Houston, Richard Justice noted the Astros "drew the second-smallest crowd in the history of Minute Maid Park" for their game Monday against the Cubs and are an NL-worst 3-8 to start the season. But "regardless of what you think about the job" GM Ed Wade "has done, he was dealt cards as difficult as any GM in baseball." Justice: "He has done what he did in Philly. That is, he has begun rebuilding the Astros from the ground up and putting an organizational structure in place that will last." Owner Drayton McLane is looking to sell the franchise, and Justice wrote, "I'm guessing the new owner will come in, see that Ed's not popular with fans and fire him without regard for the good work Ed has done or for the situation he inherited." Justice: "The Astros didn't get bad overnight. ... They got bad because dozens of mistakes were made in the draft, because Drayton refused to spend money in critical areas. Drayton was unwilling to admit the club needed rebuilding and so he kept looking for temporary [fixes]" (CHRON.com, 4/12).

I was in Grade 5 when I first learned about domestic violence. My mom picked me up after school on her way to a meeting at the Pictou County Women's Centre. It was in an old two-storey house by the East River, around the corner from the Frenchy's and Louis's — the best second-hand clothing stores in town. But without my older sisters I wasn't allowed to go shopping. I had to wait at the women's centre, in a living room with well-worn couches and floor-to-ceiling bookcases.
Instead of doing my homework, I skimmed through book titles on battered women, wife abuse, family violence, domestic assault, date rape. The terms were all new to me.
Later that year, my mom volunteered at Tearmann House, a transition house for abused women. I remember asking what the shelter was for and my mom explained that the women and children were fleeing abusive partners and fathers. It was the first time I understood what all those books were about.
Slowly, my understanding of violence against women grew. Tracy Chapman's song Behind the Wall, on her eponymous 1988 album, haunted me. I marched on International Women's Day and joined Take Back the Night walks.
When I started out as a reporter doing cop calls, often the duty officer would brush off most calls as "a bunch of domestics," or domestic abuse cases. We didn't report on those cases. Charges were seldom laid and an argument gone awry isn't newsworthy. But Chapman's words always hovered in the back of my mind: "The police always come late, if they come at all. And when they arrive, they say they can't interfere with domestic affairs, between a man and his wife. And as they walk out the door, the tears well up in her eyes."
Despite what sounded from police like a troubling number of unreported domestic abuse cases, I took solace in the fact that rates of police-reported domestic violence were dropping in Canada.
In 2009, the rate of 3.5 spousal homicides per million people was 44 per cent lower than 30 years ago, according to a Statistics Canada report on family violence. In Atlantic Canada, the number of spousal homicide victims dropped to three in 2015 from 10 in 1997. Moreover, according to police records, the overall rate of police-reported intimate partner physical assaults was 230.2 per 100,000 people in 2014, a 12 per cent drop from 2009.
Women's increased economic independence and social equality afforded many women the ability to leave abusive relationships earlier. Also, efforts to end domestic violence have increased public awareness of family violence, spurred treatment programs for violent men and improved community services, police training and legislation, according to the Canadian Women's Foundation.
When cops would mention the nightly flood of domestic calls, I knew violence against women was a troubling, complex societal problem. But domestic abuse is easily conflated with other issues, brushed off as a problem stemming from addiction, poverty, lack of education, the effects of systemic racism, mental health issues.
But then three recent cases shook my complacency to the core.
In early December, Toronto neurosurgeon Dr. Mohammed Shamji was charged with the first-degree murder of his wife, also a doctor. In the days following the shocking discovery of the body of Elana Shamji, 40, in a suitcase near a Toronto-area highway, it was revealed that Shamji had been charged with assaulting his wife more than a decade earlier but that the charges had been dropped.
Then in the early hours of New Year's Day, Halifax police arrested Maroun Diab, the husband of Nova Scotia's immigration minister, on charges including assaulting, choking and uttering threats against his wife. Lena Diab and two others have been identified as the alleged victims.
Neither case has been proven in court.
This week, the bodies of a former soldier struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and three members of his family were found dead in what police say was a murder-suicide. Lionel Desmond, a veteran of the Canadian Forces, had sought treatment for his condition, and admitted on social media to being over-controlling of his wife.
While all three cases are vastly different with unique circumstances, they are similar in one way. All three wives — a family physician, a provincial cabinet minister and a nurse — were educated and successful.
Roughly every six days a woman in Canada is killed by her intimate partner, figures from Statistics Canada show. And out of the 83 police-reported intimate partner homicides in 2014, 67 of the victims — more than 80 per cent — were women. Perhaps even more disturbingly, nearly three-quarters of spousal violence is never reported, Statistics Canada estimates.
A lot has changed since I thumbed through books on battered women more than 20 years ago. But a lot hasn't. It's time we put the conversation about spousal abuse back on the front burner. We need to learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of domestic assault, understand the barriers to leaving an abusive relationship and ensure there are services and resources in place to help women and men.

used for
Accuretic is used to treat high blood pressure.
Accuretic contains the active ingredients quinapril and
HCTZ. Quinapril belongs to a group of medicines called
angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. ACE
inhibitors work by widening blood vessels in the body,
which can help to reduce the pressure in the vessels.
HCTZ belongs to a group of medicines called diuretics.
Diuretics help the body to get rid of extra fluid and are used
in patients with high blood pressure. Because they get rid
of fluid diuretics are sometimes called 'water tablets'.
You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you
feel worse.

As time passes Dörfelt's process will inevitably change, but the robot will continue to drawing the same way, and represent a really specific time in terms of the designer's creative thinking.

restoring 1903 & 1917
Started work on my inhereted 1903 and 1917 rfles today
All 3 were stored in an attic for 50 plus years and it showed
the first 1903 Springfield arms 900,000 1918 is in the worst shape. Heavy rust and mold on stock. Wood split. I got it mold stripped and stock glued. It will get many coats of tung oil. I don't think I can save the finsh so i'm going to have to do the unthinkable, buff all the metal smooth and re-blue
the 2nd 1903 Remington 3,400,000 1942 is in much better shape only light surface rust and was able to save 95% of the original finish. I do not plan on touching up blueing. I will leave the character it has earned. This stock is also covered with mold but the wood is solid. I cleaned the mold off buffed and given her a few coats of tung oil
i havent started the 1917 eddistone but its in very bad shape too
i will have pic too
