Yes Its 4*100 PCD Majja Aagaya lol :evilsmile
then go for it... you can put 215/45-17 !! if you feel any vibrations, you can put hub rings !!
I am Thinking To go For 215/50-16 oR 225/45-16. As MY boot Loads so bad sometimes so my car is like this / back down front up .Is it ok with 16 inchers as 17 inchers is coslty as compared to 16 inch .16 inch 55k 17 inch 70k.
- - - Merged Post - - -
Even that price is w/o tires and without duty i would be bringing 2 2 each time so my duty will be saved and i dont need to pay for extra weight
phew thats a huge amount !!! why dont you try looking at momo, i saw its price far cheaper than this and you can get 98 pcd wheels itself as momo is italian!! i think OZ wheels are available in blore for same or lesser price that you ve mentioned. MSW is a sub brand of OZ Wheels, but its price is considerably lower, you can check em out as well. check out N1 racing also(as you are from mumbai), i ve seen quite a good collection of momo, etc in their FB page.
16 would be as good as stock !! ..
Banlgore Person Prices Are Too extremely high ,Ok I would Check ,THE BIG QUESTION what will be ground clearance after i put this
- - - Merged Post - - -
May Be Going For This ,99% If Want 17 Inchers Then Need to Choose Another.But Till Now This
- - - Merged Post - - -
For this HotWheels(Banglore) Quoted Me 94000
My Suggestion is that if U run more load 225/45 may scrape wheel well at the backside which may damage tire(inner side of tyre) and also may be u should remove inner mud flaps i suppose , but comfort wise 225/45 profile would be great and 215/45 looks would be great ..... My point of view
215/45 is wrong size as it make much speed difference then 215/50, Any ways let me get those wheels then will make a new thread.Thanks Anyways.By The Hows The Rims
I Can Put This 17 Incher's As they are cheap
How will this look In linea
Too crowded.....linea looks cool with lesser spokes
you got to seriously look into the other ones you ve put up in post #125, those are killer and unique !!!

- Cleveland manager Terry Francona outdueled his counterpart, Chicago's Joe Maddon, in Game 3 but the drama of the game was dampened by problems that have plagued the sport throughout October.
Watch Game 4 of the 2016 World Series live on Fox at 8 p.m. ET or stream it live on Fox Sports Go by clicking here.
CHICAGO—This is a story about two bats. One of them was in the hands of Andrew Miller, the infrangible Cleveland Indians relief ace who is the special ops force of this 2016 postseason. The other one was in the hands of Kyle Schwarber, the Chicago Cubs' beastly answer on offense to Miller's specialty deployment.
The bat in the hands of Miller did not belong to him, as he stood in the on-deck circle in the seventh inning of what was a scoreless World Series Game 3 Friday night. Miller is such a poor hitter—4-for-72 lifetime, with nary a turn at bat in five years—that he came to the World Series without a bat. He had to borrow one.
"I think it was a Tommy Hunter model," Miller said, recalling the relief pitcher the Indians released two months ago. In other words, it was detritus wood.
"I didn't want to break one that guys actually use. Our clubhouse guys are great at getting what we need."
The 6'7" Miller in the on-deck circle looked as out of place as a giraffe on Michigan Avenue. Indians manager Terry Francona smartly called Miller back to the dugout and sent Coco Crisp up to pinch-hit for him. Crisp hit the first pitch he saw from Carl Edwards Jr., an inside fastball cutting toward him, for a single that drove in the only run of the game.
The bat in the hands of Schwarber did make it to the plate, when Schwarber pinch hit in the eighth inning against Bryan Shaw, but it did not make it back to the dugout. It died a gruesome death. The bat practically detonated when Schwarber tried to hit an angry mid-90s cutter from Shaw, popping out to Cleveland shortstop Francisco Lindor.

Those two bats—a Tommy Hunter model given a pardon, and a Schwarber bat that suffered death by cutter—told the story of the Indians' 1-0 win Game 3 that put them up 2-games-to-1 in the World Series.
Miller had a bat in his hands because Francona aggressively inserted him into the game in the fifth inning, and he could come out of the game because Francona had Shaw and Cody Allen to trust behind him. Those three relievers took care of the final 13 outs with only three balls getting out of the infield. All three have wipeout pitches that blow up bats when they're not missing them entirely: Miller's slider, Shaw's cutter and Allen's curveball.
The Indians are two wins away from their first world championship since 1948 despite hitting .216 this postseason while averaging 3.18 runs per game. They became only the ninth team ever to win a World Series game with one run and no extra-base hits, the first since the Red Sox beat the Mets that way in Game 1 30 years ago.
How are they doing it? They have thrown a record five shutouts this postseason, all of them by using three or four pitchers. To give you an idea of how brutally efficient Cleveland pitchers have been, I asked pitching coach Mickey Callaway if he could remember a mistake among the 149 pitches thrown by starter Josh Tomlin, Miller, Shaw and Allen.
"One: [Dexter] Fowler's single to left," Callaway said. "Other than that, I can't think of one off hand—and that's against probably the best hitting team in baseball."
We interrupt this column for a public service message: Baseball's pace of action problem is nearing critical mass this postseason.
This was the 23rd nine-inning 1-0 game in World Series history—and at three hours, 33 minutes and with 10 pitchers used, it was both the longest and the most interminable when it comes to pitching changes in the history of the Fall Classic.
The postmodern preferred methodology of run prevention—use more pitchers with extreme velocity and/or extreme spin, a tactic the Indians have mastered—works so well that it is anathema to the casual fan. It is draining pace and drama from postseason baseball.
The comeback is dead. The team that scores first is 23-8 this postseason (a 74.1% conversion rate), including 14-0 in the League Championship Series and World Series.
Think about the greatest games you ever watched in the postseason. The Carlton Fisk Game. The Kirk Gibson Game. The Bill Buckner Game. Bill Mazeroski, Joe Carter, Aaron Boone, David Freese. Maybe even the Steve Bartman Game. Chances are that the best games you remember involve comebacks. All of them came in LCS or World Series games, but this year in those rounds there have been zero comebacks, just the slow slog toward making an early score stand up while the ball stays out of play. The Indians obtained 21 of their 27 outs in Game 3 by grounders or strikeouts. The game could well have been played in the lobby of the Wrigley Building, not Wrigley Field, without endangering a sconce.
Give Cleveland tremendous credit. Francona is a wizard at managing aggressively and his relievers make it work not only with premium stuff but also with unselfish attitudes. And the Cubs, thanks to a single by Anthony Rizzo and a tough error on Cleveland first baseman Mike Napoli, did get the tying and winning runs in scoring position with two outs in the ninth, but Allen then whiffed Javier Baez then whiffed for the final out.
This is an observation about optics. There have been three World Series games played this year in which a total of only 13 runs have scored, yet the games took an average of three hours, 41 minutes to play, required 28 pitchers and included not a single lead change.
When it came to Game 3's place in history, here it is: Never has it taken so long to produce so little offense in the World Series. To give you a sense of how baseball takes longer to generate less action, here is a brief history of 1-0 regulation World Series games by average time of game as divided by generations:
Average Time
2000s and 2010s
3 hours, 27 minutes
1980s and 1990s
2 hours, 58 minutes
1960s and 1970s
2 hours, 8 minutes
1940s and 1950s
2 hours, 14 minutes
1920s and 1930s
1 hour, 53 minutes
1900s and 1910s
1 hour, 49 minutes
We now return to the regularly scheduled column.
2016 MLB postseason: Complete schedule, TV listings, recaps
Here's what Francona did in the fifth inning: He removed his starting pitcher, Tomlin, who was throwing a two-hit shutout at the time, and called on his best relief pitcher.
"We know winning the battle the third time around the lineup is a big deal," pitching coach Mickey Callaway said.
The modern game is driven by this knowledge. The average starting pitcher facing a lineup for the third time allows a .272 batting average and a .796 OPS. The average relief pitcher facing a lineup for the first time allows a .245 average and .713 OPS. Who do you want in the game? So Tomlin is taken out after getting to within one batter of the lineup flipping to its third turn.
And here's what Francona did in the seventh inning: He used a pinch hitter (Crisp) for his relief pitcher (Miller) to drive in a pinch-runner (Michael Martinez) who had moved to second on a bunt and to third on a wild pitch.
"He's so good," Callaway said of Francona, "that I sometimes I think he's about to use guys who aren't even on our roster. We've got to use our whole roster. That's the way we're built."
The inning began with a single by catcher Roberto Perez, but it turned on a wild pitch. With Martinez at second, one out and a 2-and-1 count to Rajai Davis, Edwards bounced a curveball. Catcher Willson Contreras couldn't keep it in front of him, and Martinez moved to third base, which pressured the infield to play in and pressured Chicago manager Joe Maddon into a decision with Miller doing his giraffe-with-a-bat impression in the on-deck circle.
On a 3-and-1 count, Maddon decided to pitch to Davis—but not really. Contreras set up almost in the lefthanded batter's box and called for a fastball—a glorified pitchout that would put the strong-armed Contreras in position to pick off Martinez at third. (Cubs pitchers and catchers already have picked off four runners this postseason).
But the timing of the play never worked right. It started with Edwards throwing his fastball too low to Contreras' backhand side, creating a tougher position from which to throw. Third baseman Kris Bryant broke a bit late, and Contreras threw just slightly too far into the field rather than down the line. By the time Bryant caught the baseball and reached across and down for a tag, Martinez barely had his fingers on the base.
Now Maddon had another choice: use Edwards to pitch to Crisp or bring in lefty Mike Montgomery to pitch to righthanded Brandon Guyer, the expected pinch-hitter for the switch-hitting Crisp.
"Dead-red fastball hitter who never grounds into double plays," groused one Cub about pitching to Crisp, who grounded into one double play all year batting lefthanded.
Said Maddon, "And just talking it through, we liked that match-up. That's it. We liked it. So it's one or the other. You have to pick your poison right there. It just didn't work out. But that's what we knew, and we chose that and he got a hit."
Crisp did not have a pinch hit all season in 10 plate appearances. He had only three first-pitch hits as a pinch hitter in his career. But he softly dumped a first-pitch fastball from Edwards in front of rightfielder Jorge Soler for what would stand as the winning hit.
The Cubs now have lost two 1-0 World Series games in their history—98 years apart. The winning pitcher in the first one, back in Game 1 of the 1918 World Series, was a lefthander for Boston named Babe Ruth, who threw a complete game. The winning pitcher in the second one was Miller, who threw 17 pitches. (The first one took one hour, 50 minutes, or almost half the time of the second.) That seems fitting, because in today's environment, Andrew Miller is the Babe Ruth of the postseason.
The Indians play baseball the way Seve Ballesteros played golf: they are great at scrambling. Today Francona somehow has the Cubs right where he wants them: Down in the series, anxious at home and staring in Game 4 at the same Corey Kluber-Miller-Allen platter that shut them out in Game 1. It's an uncomfortable bind for Chicago, one that based on how the game is played these days—especially by Cleveland—will get downright trepidatious if the Indians score the first run Saturday night.

They absorb dangerous electricity to keep you safer around open circuits.
Inside the safety toe boots your feet will be treated to exceptional comfort. The direct attach PU midsoles cushion your feet, protecting them from the abuse of walking on a hard floor all day. These Avenger pull-on boots also have removable perspiration-absorbing dual-density PU insoles. In addition to supporting your feet in a layer of comfort, the insoles can easily be removed and cleaned so your work boots stay fresher-smelling longer. Unlike boots with non-removable insoles, you can do something about the unpleasant smell that emanates from the inside of your composite toe boots.
The sturdy rubber outsoles are slip-resistant to provide excellent traction on slick and dry surfaces. The durable outsoles used for these Avenger boots are also oil-resistant to prevent premature breakdown of the rubber.

Hi Eric! I placed a special order with your company in November. I was having a little trouble with getting the status of my order and decided to call and see what I could find out. I spoke with Jeanine and I just wanted to tell you great she was! She bent over backwards to answer all of my questions and got as much information about my order as she could get. At this time of year with the holidays approaching, many are not as friendly and helpful as Jeanine was. I can honestly say I have not had this much cooperation from other stores. She was fabulous and is a real asset to your company. Take care!"

These are from Immanuel Kant. In philosophy it has to Epistemology - reasoning. Both relate to knowledge, how it is obtained, and as justifications with argument. Language is a key element with both.
Essentially a priori means from the earlier and is 'thought' or derived from reasoning. It is independent of experience. The only thing necessary for it is learning the language for the knowledge. The most common example used is all bachelors are unmarried, thus a single man is a bachelor can be deduced. One does not have to experience being unmarried to have knowledge or know any bachelors. With science it is hypothesis before experimentation and is known as a priori hypothesis. It is pure reasoning.
A posteriori means from the later and results from experience related to experiencing and experienced. For example the most common example is it raining outside now. It results from experience. Most understand this with science as results from experiments or empirical knowledge. It occurs as observed or of observed. It is justification for knowledge seen as evidence at the time of the experiment or after. A new theory with that knowledge may be derived known as a posteriori hypthesis.
There is a third option for justification. That is Immanuel Kant's proposition for synthesis. In that case is when one cannot be independent from another to my understanding.

AR Rahman the pride of Tamil Nadu, the musical virtuoso and Bryan Adams a voice to die for and well pretty much a household name for every Indian who has been exposed to western music. He made a special place among lovers and his admirers with soulful numbers like "Please forgive me", "It's only love", "Run to you" and yes who can forget the endless times they played "Summer of 69" on the radio.
Bryan is here in India to kick off his Indian tour and he really is looking forward to meet Rahman after his tour back in US. When Bryan was asked if there was anyone that he would love to work with in the future, pat comes the reply in that typical husky tone, "Well yeah I really love what AR Rahman is doing."
Well Rahman's most recent tie up was with pop singer Rihanna for her Hollywood movie Battleship. CLICK HERE >>
Now we won't be surprised if Rahman announces his collaboration with Bryan for something special.
Will Rahman and Bryan come together ?

"A fascinating historiographical essay. . . . An unusually lucid and inclusive explication of what it ultimately at stake in the culture wars over the nature, goals, and efficacy of history as a discipline."—Booklist
Three historians here team up for a worthy, demanding foray into the battle over the academy, taking on ``both the relativists on the left and the defenders of the status quo ante on the right.'' The authors argue that skepticism and relativism about truth, in science, history and politics, stems from the democratization of American society and higher education. They survey the ``heroic model'' of science produced in the Enlightenment, the roots of relativism in Hegel, and the influence of Marx, Durkheim and Weber on latter-day historical schools. They tackle the virtuous mythologies of American history, and critiques by progressives like Charles Beard and post-WW II social historians. They also cite 1960s historians of science who launched politicized critiques and postmodernists who attacked claims of objectivity. The authors urge historians to have a ``stronger, more self-reflexive and interactive sense of objectivity.'' In a final chapter addressing ``political correctness'' and multiculturalism, the authors sensibly call for a middle ground, but diminish their message with a paucity of models.

STANLEY, N.C. -- A man wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans approached the small wooden credentials building at the entrance of the garage, where men covered in grease and red clay were fine-tuning cars identified as the "Albino Rhino" and "XX."
"Hey, Cooter here?" the man asked.
This wasn't Texas Motor Speedway, where NASCAR's top two series competed last weekend. Not even close. There were no paved garages with stalls or fancy suites. There were no big-time sponsor names on the cars or hospitality tents filled with big-money spenders.
The only parallels between this place and racing in the Lone Star State was that some of the competitors and spectators wore cowboy boots and somebody named Cooter likely was at both.
Welcome to East Lincoln Speedway, or new East Lincoln Speedway, depending on who's talking.
It's a three-eighths-mile dirt track buried in the hills of Lincoln County about 25 minutes from downtown Charlotte. It doesn't look like much if you're used to big-time stock car racing, but to Ray Evernham it is a slice of heaven.
Yes, the same Evernham who helped Jeff Gordon win 47 races and three of his four Sprint Cup titles, earning him the distinction of the greatest crew chief ever. The same Evernham who built Evernham Motorsports into a successful Cup organization before selling majority interest to Montreal Canadiens owner George Gillett Jr.
The same Evernham who now works as an analyst for ESPN.
"It takes you back to your roots," Evernham said as he anxiously awaited Saturday's opening of his new venture. "In some ways [Cup racing's] not reality. It's not healthy to be flying around in Learjets every day and living in big motor coaches.
"These people are not going out buying [a] $150 pair of shoes. They're not going out buying a suit or a Rolex. Sometimes you've got to go back and understand why you're here, why you love this so much. I get that feeling while I'm there."
Evernham purchased the track from Ralph and Joanne Nantz in December. Apparently Ralph -- decked out in his finest bibbed overalls for the opening -- and his dog came with the facility.
The dog, appropriately named "Blackie" because he is black, is about as close to a thoroughbred as East Lincoln Speedway is to TMS.
"He's just a dog," Ralph said when asked to identify the hound's make and year.
And East Lincoln is just a dirt track. Nothing fancy. Just red clay in a banked oval where young Cup wannabes get their start and longtime racers keep their dreams alive. The total purse for the evening: $4,000.
Evernham, 51, wants to keep it simple just like the tracks were when he was a wannabe in New Jersey. He doesn't plan to schedule super late-models races with purses of $10,000 or more, although there will be the occasional challenge races with his celebrity friends.
He wants this to be a place the 15-year-old working at the local gas station or bike shop can buy a $3,000 car and race.
"The size of it protects me from myself," he said of the facility that still looks rustic despite a fresh coat of red and white paint. "What I tried to explain to the guys is this place is not going to be about coming to make money. It's about family, local entertainment and getting a place to start."
'Uh, Mr. Evernham?'
The first race was more than an hour away when a Lincoln County police officer approached Evernham.
"He said, 'Mr. Evernham. I have no place left to park cars. What do you want me to do?' " Evernham said.
Evernham actually anticipated this might be a problem. He stopped at the homes of a few neighbors earlier in the day to explain that people might park along the road near or on their property.
He never expected this, though. About 1,500 people and 89 competitors -- both track records -- showed on this glorious spring evening. The concrete grandstands were packed, many making their first trip to the facility off Mariposa Road.
The new party deck over the new scoring tower also was packed. Evernham spent so much time making sure everybody had a good time that he missed the inaugural wreck. He pushed several spectators to the wheelchair-accessible area, wanting to see firsthand whether that section was adequate.
One woman tried to tip him.
"I don't think she knew it was me," Evernham said. "I was, 'No, ma'am. It's fine.' "
For Buddy Smith, who claims he won the inaugural race at East Lincoln 20 years ago and wrecked more Earnhardts than anybody on the planet during his heyday as a driver, Evernham's participation was a good sign.
"Most racetracks like this, the owners hide," he said.
Evernham won't be here for every race. Because of obligations with other ventures, he'll attend about half of the events. But when here he plans to be visible, and might even drive a few challenge races against event winners to spice things up.
"This is good for the community," said Smith, who grew up 5 miles from the track. "This may be the biggest gathering ever in Lincoln County high school football and everything.
"A lot of people used to bitch about the place. Ain't nobody bitching now."
Cleaning things up
Evernham spent the better part of last week wearing his first set of bibbed overalls, doing everything from bulldozing dirt to welding the new safety walls in a pouring rain to have everything perfect for the debut.
And by the way, they don't make designer overalls like the Seven jeans he wore for the debut.
"Right now I have William Rast working on a set for me," Evernham said jokingly of the man who designed a clothing line for Justin Timberlake.
You get spoiled standing in Victory Lane at Daytona and places like that. You can't forget what drove you there.
"-- Ray Evernham
Physical appearance aside, Evernham's main goal is to clean up things and make this a family-type atmosphere. That also was made clear in the drivers' meeting, when competitors were informed of strict policies against drinking and rough driving that in the past gave the place a bad rap.
"I just believe they wanted some leadership and organization," Evernham said.
Alex Patton, the commissioner of Lincoln County, liked what he saw from inside and outside the cockpit of the two-seater Sprint Car that Evernham piloted during a break in the racing.
This was Patton's first trip to the track, but he'd heard enough through his son and community members to know the atmosphere Saturday was quite different than in past years.
"When I first became commissioner, people complained about this place," he said. "There was a lot of riffraff here. Ray is committed to the neighbors to doing it the right way. He's saving Saturday night racing in Lincoln County."
Evernham also, according to Patton, is bringing the county more national exposure "than we could have dreamed" because of his name and reputation.
"All the racing in the past has basically been on the other side of the lake," Patton said of Lake Norman, which separates Lincoln County from much of the NASCAR world around Mooresville and Cornelius. "We want some on this side."
Back to the future
Evernham stood near the rail of the party deck, his hand resting on the shoulder of his 78-year-old dad, Ray Evernham Sr.
"In 1975, '76, I was one of those kids," he said of the competitors. "I had $600 invested in my first race car [in Jersey]. Me and my dad were there. It's kind of come full circle."
The elder Evernham isn't a big fan of dirt track racing, but he is a big fan of his son.
"This is something he always wanted to do," he said with pride in his voice.
Race fan Lorenne Huffman is thankful he did.
"Everybody was excited when they found out Ray was going to be here," she said, while waiting for her son to compete. "He's made a lot of good changes."
The real change has been in Evernham. He's not nearly as intense as when he sat on the pit box as a crew chief or team owner, although put him behind the wheel of a Sprint Car and he believes he's Gordon. He's learning to appreciate and enjoy things that are important in his life, such as family and personal time.
He might be retired from Cup racing, but he's not retired from racing. It was refreshing to see.
"You get spoiled standing in Victory Lane at Daytona and places like that," Evernham said. "You can't forget what drove you there.
"Everybody wants to make a difference in the world. I can't make a difference in the world, but maybe I can make a difference in grass-roots racing in Lincoln County, N.C."

It was one of my dear Dad's favorite exclamations, sometimes occasioned during disciplinary actions concerning me and my brother but usually a call to attention for some grand new and exciting project or phase of our lives. And the prospect of this giant new step always filled me with energy and tremendous anticipation.
That said; get ready for some BIG changes (in every way) in the men's eyewear arena, already THE hot spot for trends, style, quality and innovation in the full eyewear market. Anyone following along with the 20/20 adventures in this male spec category knows that landmarks of guy eyewear (or… GuyWear as Preston Fassel dubs it in his brilliant SPECulative story in this issue) have become starry-eyed style staples. With a keen sense of the past coupled to the demands of the present market and future marketability, vendors, dispensers/retailers AND consumers (of ALL genders and ages) now clamor for P3 shapes, clubmaster styles, classic tortoise interpretations, brazen and bold large Clark Kent-ish frames, commanding aviators, racing-hewn Carrera shapes and the sudden surge in owl-like round facial accoutrements. And all of it stems from that realm of humanity commonly known as… MEN.
And in my unguarded opinion, we're just getting started here. While the world of optical was positively (but wrongly) waiting for the rash of baby boomers to come along and shed their bloomers in favor of some nifty eyewear, a slew of newer, younger and bolder generations of guys were waiting in the wings with some solid style ideas and ideals all their own. And especially in these last three years, these boys blossomed into a manhood garnished by the powerful impact a great pair of glasses can impart on one's face. Guys took the step. Gals certainly noticed and sought out the looks as well (with some powerful dollops of color and "feline" finesse sprinkled in) and… behold: a bold new world where eyewear DARES to be the ultimate accessory AND necessity.
I'm happy. Cool came along just in time. There truly are big changes at face here. This journey to the village of Manhood suits me just fine. And this November issue of 20/20 with its distinct and dominating dedication to the best in men's eyewear makes perfect sense and CENTS to me… and, hopefully, to you too. Man, my dad would be proud of all of you.

The Raptis Company History
A. Raptis & Sons Pty. Ltd
As a migrant worker in the 1930's Arthur Raptis Senior (Sr) sought employment in the industry he knew best fishing. In the 1950's the family moved to Adelaide and opened a fish and chip shop. Soon, Arthur Raptis Snr began filleting his catch for local shops, and within a few years his entrepreneurial spirit had spread to his four sons and daughter, who developed the business into seafood wholesale and retail businesses in Adelaide. Half a century on, A. Raptis and Sons Pty Ltd (Raptis) has become one of Australia's largest privately owned vertically integrated fishing and seafood trading companies in Australia. The company is proudly owned by the Raptis Family and has established an international reputation for responsible fishing and the supply of quality seafood products. Raptis seafood products can be found in many Australian supermarkets, retail outlets and the Sydney Fish Markets. Raptis also has a dedicated export division, exporting seafood across the globe for over 40 years.
The Raptis fleet pursues a philosophy of responsible fishing to achieve ecologically sustainable marine resources. Raptis predominately fishes in the Northern Prawn Fishery and Great Australian Bight. Raptis rigorously ensures each of its vessels complies with regulations set by the Australian Fisheries Management Authority. As a result of satisfying the Australian Government Guidelines for the Ecologically Sustainable Management of Fisheries, The Northern Prawn Fishery has been granted an exemption from export restrictions under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. Raptis proudly supports the Northern Prawn Fishery becoming certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), an organisation which encourages sustainable fishing practices. To ensure sustainability, Raptis fishes in a manner that reserves the greatest protection for by-catch species, one such example of this is through the use of Turtle Exclusion Devices in the Northern Prawn Fishery, these devices prevent turtles and other large marine life such as sharks and stingrays from being caught in the nets.
Raptis is an Accredited Member of Friend of the Sea, an international non-profit non-government organisation, who provide international certification for products originating from sustainable fisheries, and that are caught using fishing practices that support sustainable seafood resources.
Raptis are proud of their Australian fishing and seafood trading history, are committed to safeguarding wild-caught Australian Seafood stocks, and look forward to providing wild caught seafood for future generations of consumers to enjoy.
Raptis is proudly bringing Australian Seafood, from Ocean to the Plate.

La delincuencia y su efecto sobre el crecimiento económico. El caso de México
[Crime and Economic Growth. The case of Mexico]
In this paper, we made a brief review of the theory that analyzes the interaction between crime and economic growth, then we present two indices of insecurity for Mexico using the principal component factor analysis. An index called national public insecurity which refers to federal crimes (drug trafficking, conspiracy, etc.) And a second index, the index of private insecurity, based on common law crimes (offenses against property of the people, etc..). We describe the behavior of both indexes for the 32 states for the years 1997, 2005 and 2008. Additionally, we show an economic growth model, which incorporates the model of Barro (1990), which includes government spending financed by taxes. In the second part of this section we built two econometric models to analyze the effect that crime rates over investment and income.

A phone call to Barefoot Marina, A SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS' NET SPONSOR!, confirmed that shoaling has occurred in front of their south dock. Call the marina, 843-390-2011, to get instructions before approaching the docks. Despite this temporary shoaling issue, Barefoot Marina is a GREAT place for northbound snowbirds to spend an evening, or even a few days resting from their travels, and, of course, year round Palmetto State cruisers should make this facility a regular stop.
On May 20th I was getting ready to dock at Barefoot Resort Marina(that's the one on the left as you go north on the AICW) in N. Myrtle Beach, SC. A dock hand was standing on the face dock directing me into the dock when I ran aground on a sand bar. It was low tide and I draw 5 ft. I could not wiggle or move my boat from the bar. I called Tow Boat U.S. and the Little River , SC location dispatched a boat. It was on scene within 40 minutes.
I have a 42 ft. Endeavour Sail and within a few minutes the tow operator hooked a line to the bow and proceeded to pull my craft straight through the shoal. It stalled in the middle of the shoal and the tow operator increased the power significantly and pulled us through the shoal and off.
Later I discovered that a shoal had been building for some time and no one at the marina told us about it.
The next day when we left, we had to go very carefully until we found the opening through the shoal to get out into the waterway. The shoal is within 50 ft. of the dock and in the middle of the waterway.
We did not think too much of this incident until about a week later when the bilge pump started going off more than usual. Then another week went by and we were in Ocracoke and the bilge pump was going off every 30 seconds. We made it back to Oriental and was pulled out by Sailcraft and water came pouring out of our keel. The bottom of the keel had been punctured and the fuel tank and water tank had been ruptured. We had been taking on water for over 3 weeks and it finally got to the point that it was filling up the bilge.
Our boat is now high and dry with the bottom of the keel cut out. The boat yard is going to remove the generator and remove the water and fuel tanks and build custom tanks to take their place and repair the keel. The boat will be in the boat yard most of the summer.
So, please be careful when transiting the area around the Barefoot Marina resort and stay in the middle of the channel. They are just north of the section called the "rock pile" in Myrtle Beach.

Move an unmovable window?
Wasn't sure where to put this. It's not a Windows 7 Problem Per Se... So many truly brilliant regulars here though I thought I'd give it a (long?) shot.
I have a surveillance system which uses a remote viewing app that appears to be an active X component.
The app loads in the top left corner of the monitor (see screenshot) and is not resizeable or movable. The only manipulation it will allow is minimize to task bar. I do not like this
I have looked for registry entries and/or *.ini files that would govern screen position but have not found such. I've also looked for third party workarounds that would allow me to reposition or resize this window. I've not found anything.
The surveillance package is run from this card Product Detail The software is called Super DVR. Remote Viewing Software for the QSDT4PCRC-BNC and QSDT42DPCRC PCI Cards
TIA for any ideas.

Try this, hover your mouse over the taskbar icon until the preview pops up. Right click the preview and see if the Move option isn't grayed out. This will allow the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the window.
Highlight (hover over) the taskbar icon. Press Alt+Space bar, then M. Now use the keyboard arrows to move. Press the Shift key when you close it might very well save that location.

Yeah Guy Sorry. I should have mentioned. There are no right click options from the Task Bar Preview. Right clicking the Task Bar Preview simply returns focus to the program.
Similarly the only context options from the Task Bar icon itself are Pin to Task Bar and close. There are no right click options anywhere in the program's window either.
I honestly think that short of a third party workaround (which I'd be glad to try if anybody knows of one) the only option would be to decompile and rewrite the program. Well beyond my skill level.
Thank You for your time. Much appreciated.

Bad coding on the programmers part. I guess they assumed the monitor would be dedicated to the display. A Guy
|My System Specs
|24 Jun 2012
Yeah tried the second option as well. Any keypress while hovering returns focus to the program. It's just plain stuck in that corner.
Your mentioning the programmer ASSumed the monitor would be dedicated to the task (probably correct ) gave me an idea though. Perhaps I'll hook up a second small monitor to the system and see if I can dedicate it to the Webcam app.
Thanks again for your time.

I've been looking for a while so I wasn't too hopeful but hey, thanks anyway.

If you put the Taskbar at the top before running the program, does it still position in Top Left or does it allow room for the Taskbar? I'm trying to find out if it pays attention to the "work area". For the test to mean anything you must have Taskbar AutoHide disabled. Right click Taskbar click Properties and make sure AutoHide is not checked. Also before trying to drag the Taskbar to the top make sure Lock the Taskbar is not checked.

I also wrote a window mover sizer. MoveIt
But a program can ignore WM_MOVE messages. I'm trying to find out if it cares anything about the system settings, such as work area. If it ignores WM_MOVE and insists on being anchored at 0,0 there's nothing you can do about it except kill it.
Sometimes a window that won't allow itself to be moved will still accommodate the taskbar. In that case you may be able to "fool" it by setting the work area:

Q. I have a drinking problem and now the U.S. Post Office has given me papers to suggest separation. I am 55 years old. I went ahead and put in retirement papers for next year. Can they fire me and cause me to lose my retirement benefits? What is the best way to handle this situation? I have 32 years in. And aren't they supposed to offer me rehab for my addiction?
Browsing: discontinued service retirement
Q. What is discontinued service retirement? Will you keep your health benefits? As of March 7, 2017, I reached my minimum retirement age of 56. I have 24 years of service.
Q. I am 52 years old with 30 years of federal service under my belt. There is a possibility my agency will do away with my position. What are my options should this happen? I am not in a position that I can relocate to another area. Will I lose my FEHB if my position is abolished and I cannot find another federal job? Will I be eligible for immediate retirement even though I don't meet the MRA requirement? FEHB is the only health insurance I have. My husband does not have a health insurance plan. Do I still qualify for…
Q. I am 52 years old with 28 years of service and am starting FERS disability retirement. The letter from OPM says that if I am found medically recovered I will be converted to a discontinued service retirement. I am eligible because a discontinued service retirement is age 50 with 20 years or 25 years at any age to qualify. If found medically recovered and converted to a discontinued service retirement with age 53/28 years of service would I also get the FERS special supplement?
Q. I am 49 years old with 22 years of service under FERS. If my agency separates me, through no fault of my own, am I eligible for Discontinued Service Retirement, even though I do not meet the minimum age of 50?
Q. Could you please explain what the term "delinquency" refers to with regards to a discontinued service retirement? A. Delinquency is a term that includes, but is not limited to, failure to do what law or duty require, an offense or a misdemeanor, a debt or other financial obligation on which payment is overdue.
Q. I will be 52 and have 29 years of technician service (32 years National Guard) under FERS. If I was diagnosed with a medical condition that ended my military career, would I be eligible for the non-reduced pension/Social Security Offset/ and access to my TSP, since I have 25 years, I am age 50 and would be losing my military position through no fault of my own?
Q. I have 25 years and three months as a FERS employee. If my agency separated me due to poor job performance, would I be eligible for a discontinued service retirement ? A. Yes.
Q. I was retired on CSRS disability with 30 years of service at age 52. OPM has sent me a letter that I have made too much money for 2010 through 2012. I would have been eligible for full retirement in July 2009 (and will be age 60 in July 2014). What are my options? Can I convert to full retirement or discontinued service retirement? Can I do this retroactively to 2009?
Q. I am 51 years old and have suffered a stroke. I realize I could probably apply for FERS disability retirement, but I have a dilemma. I am buying back my military service time, but I have about five years to buy it all back. Which is better to apply for disability retirement or regular early retirement?

Marvel's Agents of SHIELD is Probably Adding Ghost Rider for Season 4
Marvel's Agents of SHIELD has been teasing the appearance of Ghost Rider for its upcoming fourth season, and they've pretty much confirmed it today at San Diego Comic-Con by having a car in the center stage covered up.
The Ghost Rider car for @AgentsofSHIELD is still covered up at @Marvel #SDCC booth… pic.twitter.com/eltUs6mPpo
— Rob Keyes (@rob_keyes) July 22, 2016
The Ghost Rider is a title that's been owned by many different people. There's Johnny Blaze (you may remember him from that bad pair of Nicholas Cage movies), Daniel Ketch, Alejandra, and more recently, the Mexican-American teenager Robbie Reyes. Reyes was the lead of his own book, where he traded in the typical motorcycle for a black muscle car that looks a lot like a Dodge Charger. The car may be a departure from what the Rider normally uses to get around, but he's still got the flaming chain, and that's all that matters.
Marvel's Agents of SHIELD will premiere its fourth season on September 20. Stay tuned to Twinfinite for more news from San Diego Comic-Con.

Rafting in Antalya
Rafting is the term used to describe descending down river rapids with a group of people and a guide in an inflatable boat. Everyone sits along the sides of the boat and there are foot straps in the bottom of the raft to help everyone to keep balanced. This is the perfect introduction to white water sports and a great way to spend a day with friends or family, with thrills and fun guaranteed.
Belek in Turkey is the perfect place to practice the art of rafting thanks to its fabulous weather conditions and also the numerous places available for rafting. There is a good volume of water which is essential and many canyons. There are also quantities of rafting tours that are on offer in this area.
The rivers are graded in accordance with their difficulty and this starts with Class 1 up to Class V and V1. Class 1 is easy and for beginners to Class V for the experienced and Class V1 for experts. In Belek however they offer three levels of white water rapid rafting and these are classified as beginners, intermediate and experts and these activities are always supervised by an expert instructor regardless of the group's level of experience. This means that those with no experience can take part in the rafting however the participant must be a competent swimmer otherwise they will not be allowed to participate in rafting.
The best time for rafting is the spring months of April, May and June where you can find rapids of Class 111 to V1 and in some points on the Koprulu River class V. However you can raft until the end of the summer and even winter dependant on the weather conditions.
When going rafting you will need to bring a swimsuit and towel and the centre will provide Neoprene wet jacket, helmet, life jacket and neoprene boots. Any rafting tour operator not offering these items of clothing / equipment should be avoided as these constitute the minimum safety regulations.
There are many tour operators that offer rafting day trips and this is such a popular sport in Turkey that you are sure to find something that suits. A rafting trip is an exciting day out and provides the opportunity to race the rapids whilst taking in the breathtaking scenery of the cedar forests especially if you are in the Koprulu Canyon national Park. Trips can last from one to six hours and also include a three course seafood lunch.
Possibly the most popular white water rafting spot in Turkey is Koprulu Canyon and there are designated holidays for just this. Rafting is a very popular sport in this area as the waters are perfect. The water is amazing and look close enough and your will notice some areas where spring water flows from the cracks and gizers.
The water itself is refreshing but on a hot day not cold, most rafting tours will take in the Insuyu Bridge which is home to some of the most stunning clear blue pools of water. The canyon is approximately 14km and the Kopru River can get up to 400 metres deep in places.
Whatever your pleasure, the sport of white water rafting is not for the faint hearted, however as long as you stick with a recognised guide though you are guaranteed a day that you will never forget.

|Taylor Stoehr.
Paul Goodman left his mark in a number of fields: he went from being known as social critic and philosopher of the New Left to poet and literary critic to author of influential works on education (Compulsory Mis-education) and community planning (Communitas). Perhaps his most significant achievement was in his contribution to the founding and theoretical portion of the classic text Gestalt Therapy (with F.S. Perls and R.E. Hefferline, 1951), still regarded as the cornerstone of Gestalt practice. Taylor Stoehr's Here Now Next is the first scholarly account of the origins of Gestalt therapy, told from the point of view of its chief theoretician by a man who knew him well. Stoehr describes both Goodman's role in establishing the principal ideas of the Gestalt movement and the ways in which his practice as a therapist changed him, ultimately leading to a new vocation as the "socio-therapist" of the body politic. He places Goodman in the midst of his world, showing how his personal and public life - including his political activities in the 1960s - were transformed by Gestalt ideas, and he presents revealing sketches of other major figures from those days - Fritz Perls, Wilhelm Reich, A.S. Neill, and others.

Australia's love affair with utes isn't just confined to the more heavy-duty vehicles on the market. Subaru Australia says it is still fielding calls from keen customers hoping for an all-new Brumby ute, despite the fact that the Brumby hasn't been on sale for nearly 20 years.
According to David Rowley from Subaru, the company is not planning on offering a new version of the popular small ute, which ceased production in 1993, despite strong demand for a new version.
"It's fair to say that the Brumby did play a pivotal role in helping establish Subaru in Australia," Rowley says. "However, we've moved on and there are no plans to revisit the Brumby-type vehicle."
Many of the Brumby models on the market today proudly display more than 400,000 kilometres on their odometers. Rowley says the Brumby's reputation came through its all-wheel-drive abilities and the vehicle's longevity.
"We do occasionally get people calling us to ask us when we're bringing out the next generation because they say that their current Brumby is getting a little bit tired," Rowley says. "And indeed there are specialists who make a living out of reconditioning them. But there are no plans to revisit it.
"We take it as a great compliment there's still such fantastic interest in the car and it certainly deserves due respect for helping establish Subaru in Australia."
But the makers of the hot-hatch WRX aren't the only manufacturers to have tested the Australian waters with a small utility. Malaysia's Proton Jumbuck comes to mind, although the reception was not quite as warm.
The now infamous Jumbuck mini-ute copped a caning in 2009 - seven years after it went on sale in Australia - when the safety spotlight finally shone on the budget-friendly ute's lack of safety equipment after it scored just one star in Australia's NCAP crash testing.
The Jumbuck's stint in Australia is coming to an end, with the last stocks of the budget-friendly two-seater ute currently in run-out. And for those hoping for a new city-centric ute from Proton, your dreams are about to be dashed. Sort of.
"[Small utes are] a niche but the volumes that it was doing still don't justify the car on its own," says the managing director of Proton Australia, John Startari.
"The new Jumbuck won't be here until 2012," he says. "Obviously the final specification hasn't been signed off but it more than likely won't be a half-tonner any more.
"There are not too many markets around the world that can take the Jumbuck, so it becomes a feasibility thing. Proton's pretty big in Thailand and many people know Thailand is one of the biggest one-tonner markets in the world," he says. "So that gives us the volume we need [to proceed with a one-tonne ute]."
Startari says that the new Jumbuck is going to be an entirely different concept in its next incarnation and he claims it will rival Toyota's all-conquering HiLux and Nissan's Navara - including in the safety stakes.
"The new crop of Jumbucks are all going to feature all of the standard safety features that most of the competitors are coming out with now," he says.
"I don't think you can get away from that now, to be honest with you. I don't think you can skimp on safety going forward.
"And obviously the Jumbuck was designed in an era when safety wasn't important - so that wasn't its core focus."

Responding to comments below our recent story about orgasm probabilities, Mona Chalabi tackles your queries, some serious, others less so
'Golden trio' of moves boosts chances of female orgasm, say researchers
If there was a time in my life when I wondered "what's a butt?", that time is long past. But here I am, thinking about this deeply philosophical question after one of you posted it in response to a survey at the bottom of an article on orgasm probabilities.
It wasn't the only comment that left me perplexed – someone asked "is there danger of explosion?" and another mysteriously left one word: "organs". But here we are, dear reader, you and I. You, somewhere out there wondering "what's a butt" and I, needing to find you an answer. I tried; don't say I didn't try.

text: it is out of the book: "how to make love all night (and drive a woman wild) by Dr. Barbara Keesling its ch. 4 the complete pc work out here we go straight copy n paste -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTER FOUR The Complete PC Workout I'm a big believer in foreplay, but enough is enough. It's time to get started. In this chapter you are going to learn the first set of simple exercises that will set the stage for taking control of your sexuality the way you have always imagined. Mastering them is the crucial first step on the path to a lifetime of pleasure and power as a multiorgasmic male. The following three exercises are the most important exercises in the book. Please take them very seriously. It is important to take your time, follow my instructions carefully, and try to be very thorough. Unlike many of the exercises that follow, this first set of exercises is most easily accomplished on your own. If you have a partner who is waiting to work with you, let her know you'll be ready for her soon. You just need to prepare a few things. This should heighten her anticipation and make her all the more enthusiastic when it's time for her to join in. So . . . let the games begin. Enjoy yourself! And don't forget: PC power is ultimate power. Exercise 1: Hide and Seek The very first thing you need to do is find your PC muscle. For some men this is very simple-you probably knew where to find it the moment I mentioned it. You may even be squeezing it right now. But many men are completely unfamiliar with the muscles in this area of the body. All of the individual muscles close to the groin22 buttocks, abdomen, thighs, and PC-may feel the same. They might all feel like one big muscle mass. That needs to change right now. Here is the simplest way to find your PC muscle and isolate it from all the others. First, gently place one or two fingers right behind your testicles. Pretend that you are urinating. Now try to stop the flow. That muscle you just used to turn off the flow from the bladder is your PC muscle. Did you feel it tightening? Maybe you also noticed that your penis and testicles "jumped" a little when you flexed your PC. It is very important that your stomach muscles and thigh muscles remain relaxed. Did they get tense too? Try again. This time focus just on the PC. TROUBLESHOOTING TIP; You are not trying to get an erection here, and you do not need an erection to exercise the PC. So relax, and let your penis respond naturally to these exercises. Exercise 2: Squeeze Play (three to five minutes a day) Now that you've found your PC muscle, here is your next exercise: Three times a day, flex the PC twenty times. Hold it for one or two seconds each time, then release. That's it. Twenty squeezes, three times a day. I know it sounds simple, but words cannot express how important this exercise is. You do not need to keep your finger on the PC during these exercises. You should be able to feel it move internally. If you don't, or if you're not sure, then keep your finger on the PC the first few times you do your exercises. Breathe normally during this exercise. Like any other musclebuilding exercise, proper breathing is always important. You don't want to hold your breath. I want you to repeat this exercise three times a day, every day, for three weeks. A consistent exercise regimen is the most effective way to maximize the strengthening of your PC muscle in the shortest amount of time. And it's worth every moment. ROAD TRIP I know this sounds like a commercial, but these PC exercises are easy and can be done anywhere-in the car, at the beach, or while sitting at your desk. Many men tell me that half the fun of prepping is being able to do it in broad daylight in front of city hall with no fear of being arrested for indecent exposure! Okay, I'm exaggerating. But men do tell me that prepping the PC is a lot of fun. Now that you've isolated your PC muscle and learned how to squeeze, you might want to take your act on the road. Do you ride the bus to work? A perfect opportunity. Long line at the bank? Why not. Having lunch alone? Not anymore. Of course, you may prefer to keep your exercise regimen safe at home, but you have many options.23 TWO PC PITFALLS These exercises are not hard, but there are two common mistakes men make when they start these exercises that you need to be aware of before we go any further: MISTAKE 1: Doing too many reps. I know you're feeling very enthusiastic right now, but there is such a thing as overdoing it. The PC muscle can get sore like any other muscle. You may have already discovered this on your own. Go slow at first, as you would when you start any other exercise for the first time, and let the muscle build. You can pour it on later. MISTAKE 2: Failing to isolate the PC. The PC is a small group of muscles, which need to be isolated from the many larger muscles close by during your exercises. As I said before, it is important that your stomach, upper thighs, and buttocks are all completely relaxed when you are working out the PC. They should not be moving. Are you having difficulty isolating the PC from other muscles? Many men have this problem when they try these exercises for the first time. Not to worry. If you can't stop yourself from tensing other muscles during your PC exercises, you simply need to exhaust these muscles first so they don't interfere with your new exercise regimen. Let's say you have a tendency to tense your stomach muscles during your PC workout. What you need to do is tense and untense your stomach muscles at least ten or twenty times before you begin your PC exercises. That should tire them out enough so they don't get in the way. The same applies for buttock, thigh, and groin muscles. If you have to work these muscles really hard before you get to work on your PC, that's okay. Do thirty or forty reps if twenty isn't enough. This may sound like a lot of work, but you're not going to have to do this for the rest of your life-just for a couple of days. Once you have really isolated your PC, your muscle "confusion" should dissolve, leaving you free to devote your full attention to working the program. With that in mind, let us now return to our regularly scheduled program, already in progress. Exercise 3: The Big Squeeze (two to three minutes a day) Have you done your reps three times a day for the last three weeks? Good. Now you're ready to learn what I call "The Big Squeeze" (a.k.a. "The Power Squeeze" or "The Death Grip"). I want you to keep doing your twenty quick squeezes, three times a day. But now you're going to add ten really slow squeezes. This is what you do. Take five seconds to slowly squeeze your PC as tight as you can. Now hold the tension for a full five seconds, if possible. Finally, release24the tension gradually over the next five seconds. You should be able to feel yourself really working the muscle. This might be a bit difficult at first. You may only be able to do one or two fifteen-second squeezes before you tire. That's okay. But try to eventually work up to ten full repetitions, each taking ten to fifteen seconds. It may take you a few days, or even a few weeks, to get there. That's okay. It's more important that you don't push yourself too hard. You're not training to be an American Gladiator. Just enjoy the process and keep squeezing. Meet Early and Meet Often The PC workout is like any other workout. The harder you work, the faster and more impressive the results. The great thing about the PC is that, unlike some muscles, it responds so quickly to being exercised. No matter how intense or casual your workout is, you won't have to spend months and months before you notice a difference, As you will soon see, the PC workout brings immediate gratification. Still, you need to be thorough. There are several steps to becoming multiorgasmic, but building up the PC is the crucial first step. Don't give it short shrift. There are no deadlines here, no clocks to punch, and no boss to report to. The most important thing is to get the job done. Are you one of those people who takes the new VCR out of the box and tries to make it work without reading a single page of the instruction manual? I'm the same way. But this kind of attitude simply won't work when it comes to mastering the techniques for male multiple orgasm. My grandmother used to say to me, "You can't run in the Olympics until you've learned to tie your sneakers." Listen to grandma. Take it one step at a time and take your time on every step. You'll be at the finish line before you know it, being hugged by your biggest fan. Meanwhile, that will give us some time to talk a little bit more about the miracle of male multiple orgasm.

Mitchell, Joni; Mayall, John; Stevens, Cat; Voormann, Klaus; Wood, Ronnie & Cody, Commander. JONI MITCHELL, CAT STEVENS, RON WOOD & OTHERS: STARART ("STAR ART") . Alberta, Canada: Starart Productions Limited, 1979. Hardcover. First Edition/First Printing. 239 pages. Fine. Signed.
Retrospective collection of art by pop and rock music icons. One of the finest collections of its kind ever published. Limited Edition of 300 numbered and signed copies. Precedes and should not be confused with the regular trade edition. The edition is now very rare. A brilliant production by Debby Chesher: Oversize-volume format in oblong shape. Maroon leatherette boards with gilt titles embossed on the cover and spine and gilt page edges, as issued. Art by Joni Mitchell, John Mayall, Cat Stevens, Klaus Voormann, Ronnie Wood, and Commander Cody. Each artist contributes his or her own text, interviews, and captions as well as supplementary materials such as vintage photographs and preliminary sketches. Matching leatherette slipcase. Printed on thick coated stock paper in Canada to absolutely the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents the original art of six "Hall of Fame" pop and rock music figures in the most collectible format possible. Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, and Ronnie Wood (of the Rolling Stones) are surely the most iconic. Still, the art of John Mayall, Klaus Voormann, and Commander Cody are eye-openers that complete the picture, as it were, of the time during the latter part of the 20th century when many musician/composers, lyricists, singers, and performers were also immensely talented, imaginative, and (especially in the case of Joni Mitchell) sublime visual artists. All of Mitchell's album covers showcase her delicately beautiful art, the perfect complement to her anthem-songs, which are among the greatest ever written in our time. One of her most ardent fans was Andy Warhol, and the originals fetch tens of thousands of dollars (if you can still find them). Star-art styles run the gamut of contemporary art: Figurative, representational, semi-abstract, abstract, Folk Art, Pop Art, futuristic/science fiction/fantasy-inspired, art that is directly and affectingly inspired by music, art that fuses diverse influences, art that hints at both sensuality and spirituality. Debby Chesher's design is scrupulous yet unpretentious. She lets the artists and their works speak for themselves. A "must-have" title for pop/rock music and contemporary art collectors. This copy is Number 17, indicated as such on the Front Limitation Page, and it is very boldly and beautifully signed in black pen by Joni Mitchell, John Mayall, Klaus Voormann, Ronnie Wood, and Commander Cody. It is also boldly and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by Debby Chesher. In a truly lovely gesture, Ronnie Wood wrote a long inscription in black pen on Page 163, and inserted a Polaroid self-portrait of himself and his baby boy. By the time of the book's publication, Cat Stevens had converted to Islam (which does not recognize his art or his music). A Note Insert says that he could not sign the book as a result of his conversion. This edition sold out before publication and is now very highly collectible. This is the only copy available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a beauty. Authentic Joni Mitchell and Ronnie Wood signatures are impossible to find. Here they are, in a Limited Edition format no less. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with color plates. Some of the greatest pop and rock music/artists of our time. A fine collectible copy. . ISBN 096900530X. $2500.00
