HARMAN International Industries, Incorporated (NYSE:HAR), today announced the launch of the new AKG GHS-1 portable gaming headset. Grenade explosions and rumbling jet engines will seem as if they are in your very own room when you have the brand-new portable gaming headset on your ears. Winner of the coveted Red Dot award for outstanding product design, the new GHS-1 headset brings PC gaming to a whole new level of realism, excitement, portability and comfort. "When you're in an all-immersive entertainment experience such as gaming, we understand how important high-quality, realistic sound plays in the overall experience," said David Slump, president, HARMAN Consumer Division. "The new GHS-1 headset is designed specifically for the gamer and features our innovative audio engineering built into a distinctive, long-lasting and intuitive design for the ideal gaming experience." Lightweight and designed for long-wearing comfort, the headset features a boom microphone that filters out background noise. Passive noise reduction effectively seals out most ambient sounds, providing for an undisturbed overall listening and gaming experience. The headset also features a cardioid (directional) boom microphone that filters out background noises, delivering a clear voice signal for every user. The in-line microphone is also intelligently designed so that the volume can be conveniently adjusted right on the cable, which reduces the need for players to interact with the game console or other source throughout the game. Availability The AKG GHS-1 portable headset is available now in three color combinations: black and orange; white and green; and camouflage and blue for $79.95. For more information, please visit this page.
£50 sounds alright i suppose (or more like £60 in VAT@20%) so id say £70-80 would be the RRP for the UK on release.
Plenty of competitors in that price range, form Roccat Kave to 2nd hand PC350. Will like to see a review.
Yes. Harman Kardon is Harman. Harman Kardon still exists as a brand, but it's owned by Harman. http://www.harmankardon.com/Pages/LocaleSelector.aspx
They sound worth a try then. I've only heard one system better than my HK6100 w/ Mission 730's, and they're a set of Near-Field Reference Monitor's (I'm no audiophile). Strangely enough, I've been using an AKG condenser mic for about 4 years, unaware that it's part of my favourite audio brand! Today's lesson learnt. EDIT: Freedom's on the money, £75 posted. Nice Camo set here.
AKG is one of my favorite headphone makers, however, I never buy "gaming" headsets as they are usually not focused on sounding good.
Got pc360's two weeks ago... Not that I regret it but it would've been interesting to see how this compares at half the price before I spent my $...
AKG makes some very nice headphones, but I'd rather just have a good music pair and use that for gaming, a good open pair can do anything.
I have them and ABSOLUTELY LOVE EM, they are much better than what Razer, Logitech, whoever brings out.... Most gaming headsets have a bass lag this one doesn't so when a explosion happens you aren't hearing it in the next gen but in the present gen It also does better in virtual surround(windows/realtek setting) sound than headsets that say they are 5.1-7.1(USB) surround sound The expanded frequency is a lot better as well as it responds to gun fire a lot better I gave up my Razer Megalodon for these bad boys....the only nag I have is that the mic is right on my cheek all the tiime lol Everything else is 100%-200% The Mic sound quality sounds like a professional microphone....That's not me saying that is what my cronies on vent/teamspeak have said and as well as a couple friends on skype have said I paid extra to get these headsets before anyone else got them in Feb.
How do you design headphones specifically for gamers? Are gamers not human? What's so magical about slapping a mic on a pair of headphones?

Posted: 11/13/2012
IRVING, Texas (AP) - Hostess Brands Inc. is permanently closing three bakeries following a nationwide strike by its bakers union.
The Texas-based maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs says the strike has prevented it from producing and delivering products.
Hostess warned earlier this month that the strike, by about 30 percent of its workforce, could lead to bakery closures. It said Monday that it will close bakeries in Seattle, St. Louis and Cincinnati that collectively employ 627 workers. The company has about 18,300 employees.
Thousands of members of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union went on strike earlier this month to protest wage and benefit cuts. Officials say the company stopped contributing to workers' pension last year. The union rejected the company's contract offer in September.

"If you're going to look back on something and laugh about it, you might as well laugh about it now," quipped Marie Osmond.
With doom and gloom predictions like the recent release from Stansberry Research and the news media spouting more negative about the government shutdown, it becomes more and more challenging to maintain a positive attitude.
Focus Point
We inhibit our growth and fail to achieve to our potential when we focus on negatives. You will always receive more of whatever you give your time, attention and focus. If you focus on negatives, you will unconsciously draw more negatives into your life. How attracted are you to doing business with a "negative Nellie" or a "grumpy Gus?"
Think about the successful people you know. What is their normal mood? Very few, if any, highly successful people spend their day complaining, grumbling and moaning about their life. Even if business or their personal life is less than perfect at the moment, they are focused on "How can I make it better?" They focus on "What can I do" rather than whining about current conditions. They focus on establishing and maintaining a positive attitude.
Fill the GAP
Negative news may be surrounding you. You have the right and responsibility to choose how much you allow it to dampen your spirits. You can sulk, drown yourself in alcohol or do a deep dive into a bowl of chocolate; this may be a temporary relief but not a long term solution.
A long term solution requires filling the gap between the current situation and a more ideal solution. Having a positive attitude about the current circumstances and possible solutions places you in a better frame of mind to make decisions.
G – what is currently going on
A – action
P – potential
Filling the gap is determining what is currently going on. What is currently happening? What caused the situation? What can be done to prevent a reoccurrence of the undesirable event? Once you know the details of the current situation and what you can or cannot control about it, you have a place to start in filling the gap.
What action steps are required to move from the current toward the best potential situation?
Carefully design an action plan which is workable. Implement it and periodically check progress to remain solidly on track.
Knowing exactly where you are headed is essential. Determine the best possible result. What is the potential outcome?
Positive Attitude – Positive Action – Potential Goal
When the entire focus is establishing and maintaining a positive attitude, it becomes much easier to make decisions which lead to positive action. A positive attitude coupled with positive action is far more likely to reach a potential goal.

Blackbook is not reading DVD's for long, please help.
Suddenly my CD drive is acting up. Every single disk I put inside of it takes a long time to load, (sometimes it shoots the disk right back out) and when it does load, it will okay for a few seconds and then say, "Skipping over damaged area". Other times it will load up the movie and freeze at the menu. It won't allow me to hit play. (this happened only once though, usually it will freeze and tell me "skipping over damaged area".
Do you guys have any idea what could be causing it? It's not the disk because the disks I am using play perfectly on other players. Somethings wrong with my CD drive. I've used that air blowing can inside of it, and still, nothing. My mac has been running generally slower if that helps, random freezing here and there.

CD Drive
Did you try cleaning the eye of the drive. Ive had that same problem with my desktop and it fixed it. I don't know what they recommend for the macbooks though. Such as a DVD cleaner or disassemble and clean it. Might not be it but it's possible.

I've experienced this issue time and time again with many different macbooks & macbook pros. The part apple chooses to use for the superdrive is not reliable in the long term compared to other drives. I'm not sure if it is a common trait of trayless optical drives, or if it is just this particular part, but in my repairs I notice it has a much higher failure rate than comparable laptops with tray-loading drives.
If Apple will honor the warranty(if it's still under warranty), and you can work within their timeframe, have them do it. Typically this is not the case(or else I'd have to find other work). If you're on your own, here's what I'd do. If you search ebay for uj-857-c, which is the part # of a truly compatible part, you will find what you need. here you can buy it in the U.S. cheaper than from anyplace else, and priority mail gets things to you in 1-3 days, not the 4-7 UPS takes. I would buy it there if you plan to do it yourself. I have bought from them before when I needed something quickly, and their parts were great. Don't bother with other "compatible" panasonic models, many vendors advertise compatibility with cheaper $23-$30 models for all powerbooks & macbooks that do not fit physically & do not have the proper connector. There is one other model that is a DVD burner as well that fits but there are many others that do not. Most vendors are absolutely clueless - half do not employ someone who can speak proper english, much less try parts prior to advertizing. I speak from experience, it is worth it to just get the known compatible part. Installation is not difficult. You remove the top case, remove the hard drive, unplug 3 cables then remove the superdrive. There are 3 screws holding it in. You remove them, and take the bluetooth antenna & its holster off the drive. You remove the 2 or 3 mounting brackets from the old drive and put it on the new one, and install the new one. The mounting bracket that screws to the bottom of the case is a bit hidden by 3 cables, thank Apple's design team for this wonderful experience. You will be reusing the bluetooth antenna holster, mounting hardware, and drive cable, so keep those. In my experience, it's less than 10% of the case that the drive needs to be cleaned opposed to replaced. With other laptops, I would say go with a cleaning, but this part's failure rate with me makes me say replace it. |

It's hard to imagine a team that keeps the same coach, offensive coordinator and quarterback in place could change its offense so dramatically from one season to the next, but the 2013 Patriots are about as far removed as they could be offensively from what they did last year.
Through four games in 2013, the New England offense bears little or no resemblance to the unit that buzzed through the NFL in 2012. Obviously, much of that has to do with the turnover in personnel -- for example, through four games last year, the tight ends were targeted 42 times. This year, it's nine. But the Patriots have also tweaked several aspects of their running game, including moving from a scheme that featured a single, feature back in Stevan Ridley to a running back by committee. There's also the dramatic drop-off in no-huddle, as well as the continued assimilation of the rookie receivers. It all adds up to myriad changes for veteran quarterback Tom Brady and the rest of the offense. And while it hasn't been perfect -- the points per game have dropped from 33.5 through four games last year to 22.3 this season -- it's been enough to allow the Patriots to start the year 4-0 for just the third time in Bill Belichick's tenure as coach in New England.
"Like every team, we put a lot of work into a season and we're trying to go out there and perform well, trying to make improvements every week -- 4-0 is obviously off to a good start," Brady said Wednesday. "Hopefully, we can continue that. Really, what's happened we're trying to learn from, we're trying to get better this week."
When it comes to 2013, there's a relatively small sample size -- four games worth -- but it's becoming clearer that the last time the Patriots made a such offensive overhaul was between the 2006 and 2007 seasons with the addition of receivers Randy Moss, Wes Welker and Donte' Stallworth, when the Patriots went from almost a straight-up balance between run and pass in 2006 to a pass-heavy bunch that relied heavily on its receivers.
The most obvious change from last year to this year is the slower pace. Through the first four games, the Patriots have been in the no-huddle on 17 of their 287 offensive snaps, a rate of 6 percent. That represents a sizable shift from the last two seasons, when New England was in no-huddle for approximately 25 percent of the time and regularly ran teams out of the building. (Through four weeks last year, the Patriots were in no-huddle for 85 of their 299 plays from scrimmage, a rate of 28.4 percent.)
There are two likely reasons behind the decision to slow things down. One, the Patriots have so many young faces on the offensive side of the ball, it's a lot to ask them to simply pick up the offense, much less run it at turbo speed. And two -- and this likely will be the case when the Patriots face elite quarterbacks the rest of the year -- you want to keep an opposing offense off the field as long as possible. They did it this past Sunday against the Falcons and likely will follow the same approach when they meet the Saints a week from Sunday in Foxboro.
(However, it's also interesting that, despite the decision to slow things down, through four games the Patriots are at almost the exact same spot they were last year when it comes to total plays. Through four games in 2013, they've run 287 plays from scrimmage -- at this point last season, they already were at 299.)
And while it's debatable how much slower football leads to more complementary football, the results are interesting. Through four games, the defense has done an excellent job picking up the offense when needed (particularly in Week 2 against the Jets). According to Football Outsiders, through four games the Patriots' average starting field position is the 31-yard line, fourth best in the league.
Of course, complementary football only works if both sides do their job. To this point, the defense certainly has done as much, but New England has to maximize every offensive possession -- like it did Sunday against the Falcons, when the Pats finished six of their first 10 possessions with points. (The 11th came at the end of the game and was a series of kneel-downs.)
One other reason the Patriots likely are interested in grinding it out more and more is because if you are able to dictate the pace to an opponent, you can turn that foe into a one-dimensional team that, more often than not, has to throw to get back into the game. In years' past, that might be tempting fate. But with no Vince Wilfork in the middle for the rest of the 2013 season and a dramatically improved secondary, New England would love to be in situations with two and three down linemen, with an extra defensive back on the field. New England has played lots of nickel to open the season, utilizing a 4-2-5 scheme for much of the first four weeks. Now, it's entirely likely you could see nickel or even dime packages (depending on the context of the game, obviously) on a fairly consistent basis.
In the end, the ability to shift from one offensive style to another has always been something of a hallmark of Brady, Belichick and the rest of the Patriots. There were the series of moves that took place between the 2006 and 2007 seasons, as well as the personnel changes (albeit on a smaller scale) in 2010 when the Patriots jettisoned Moss, brought back Deion Branch and focused more on the skills of the two young tight ends.
But while the latest alterations have brought with them an unbeaten mark to this point in the season, it's entirely likely that things could be tweaked once again when Rob Gronkowski, Danny Amendola and Shane Vereen return to the lineup within the next six weeks. Gronkowski (three-plus years in the New England system) and Vereen (two-plus years) are well-versed in Brady's preferences and the Patriots offense, while Amendola and Brady have displayed a nice chemistry together in Amendola's first season in New England. Their return alone likely won't cause New England to hit the turbo button again, but their knowledge of Brady's offensive shorthand means the Patriots should be able to play faster than they do now and take some of the pressure to produce off the rookie receivers.
Belichick has said on numerous occasions that the only thing permanent in the NFL is change. As we've seen over the last 12 months -- and likely will see in the coming weeks -- that's especially true when it comes to his team, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. Where that evolution takes them ultimately will determine the ceiling for the 2013 Patriots.
We check in for our weekly update from Bill Belichick and get his take on the Pats win over the Texans on the road, the benching of Stevan Ridley, and Antonio Smith's thinly veiled Spygate comments after the Texans lost.

My Witness Statement to the Leveson Inquiry on Blogging & Ethics
This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Bookmark the permalink.
9 Responses to My Witness Statement to the Leveson Inquiry on Blogging & Ethics
Am I the only one bemused by Leveson's fascination with blogging?
The internet is a cesspit, with even Twitter awash with porn bots – and Leveson's worried about you and I expressing an opinion on reported news? I wonder if the ethic cops will vist tweetups and listen in on pub chat next?
Few bloggers are "reporters" – unless of course commenting on stories reported on the BBC makes me one.
I am an observer. My blog is the letter to the Editor he'd never publish.
So what? Stoke Newington self-publishing has a long history – and if someone thinks I or any other blooger has defamed them, they have an existing action in law.
In my well paid opinion, these things – they really don't matter.
I expect to carry on making a nuisance of myself for the forseeable.
Leveson can only go on what he's told. And virtually every newspaper editor and reporter has pointed their finger at the internet and blogging as being a lawless wilderness where slander and libel proliferate.
Newspapers don"t make money anymore and are desperately trying to cover the fact.
Outstanding statement. There's a strange sort of half-parallel here with the classical record industry: while the business's traditional model is self-evidently broken, it is burying its head in the sand, ignoring the lessons of history and trying to by all means to denigrate, obstruct and prevent the obvious way forward, which is delivery by internet. Ditto traditional sources of information about classical recordings – the internet is by and large more useful and informative than Gramophone magazine and the like.

Brilliant statement. I've sat in on so many corporate sessions working on their policies and what you've outlined show a rationale approach in a profession were the consequences of what you say publicly can have a far more direct effect than a ill-judged corporate blog.
I've been reading round the subject as it forms part of the core topics for an event we've been working on that's part of next week's Social Media Week London festival. If you or your readers fancy popping along, it's a free event, an interview and Q&A with Mark Stephens CBE at The Design Council in Covent Garden on Tue 14, 3-5pm:
Freedom of Tweet: Censorship, Governments, Marketers & The Law
http://chw.ag/dRa -
at the risk of merely repeating the comments above, this strikes me as an excellent, measured apologia for blogging as a whole. it seeks to make the key distinction between individual blogs or bloggers and the exchange of views and dissemination of information that blogging can facilitate. that in turn stimulates the democratisation of knowledge. that process may have its issues, and may strike fear in the hearts of conservatives just as the translation of the bible into english once did, but it is surely positive overall, and irreversible in any event.
it also sounds like trying to describe an elephant to a blind man. perhaps the biggest point that leveson seems to fail to have grasped (yet, at least) is that the online world is just the everyday world with an incomprehensible (to him – and indeed to me) new delivery system. it reminds me of when trevor bailey on tms was asked whether he was on the internet: 'i don't even know what an internet looks like'.
i feel leveson is trying to find out what an internet looks like. the truth is it looks like whatever you want it to. it is as plural, as protean, as that. but of course it doesn't matter what it looks like – what matters is what it does and how we use it. and the statement sets that out admirably.
Totally agree. It can be used to properly expose injustice and promote human rights and or report of matters of consequence. It can also be used to vilify and promote disinformation
I simply loved Reading your witness Statement to the Inquiry. Thankfully it supports my own views and will neatly fit with my own witness statement.
I totally agree that the Police should prosecute under the Communications Act 2003 and the Harassment Act 1997 when blogging enters the illegal.In my view companies like Google and WordPress should be made responsible for blogging which breeches the Laws of England and Wales if the content is downloadable in the jurisdiction.
It is really only common sense if child porn and hate blogging against groups can be removed by Google and WordPress then they can remove hate blogging and obvious libel against individuals. this is not a huge jump. the E-commerce Act should cover Google and WordPress and or otherwise they are publishers.
Thank you for your excellent Witness Statement I wish I had the benefit of your excellent and balanced mind.

Novartis opens pitch for global brand launch
Novartis, the pharmaceutical giant, is searching for a global advertising agency to handle the international roll-out of an over-the-counter product.
Excedrin: sources say the advertising brief could relate to the US pain-relief brand
An RFI has been issued to a number of agencies, including UK-based shops, from the Denmark-based intermediary Hestbaek Consult. The brief, dubbed "Project Cool", covers the provision of advertising to support the launch of a product, which is not named in the RFI, across markets in regions including Europe, the US and Asia.
Novartis, which has its headquarters in Basel, Switzerland and has a presence in more than 140 countries, will require the appointed agency to target consumers as well as healthcare professionals.
Agency sources have speculated that the brief relates to a wider roll-out of the Novartis US pain-relief brand Excedrin. They said Excedrin, which spends around $45 million on US advertising, could be set for a global launch that will require a positive brand awareness campaign following a product recall in the US this year.
Novartis works with a number of agencies including DraftFCB London, Wunderman Switzerland and Grey Group.

Why stop at just one cake? Amber Handman, a 30-year-old recruitment manager for a Washington law firm, and her husband, Dan Handman, a 30-year-old Washington lawyer, had 16 at their wedding last year in Los Angeles. The cakes were fashioned to look like a Champagne bucket, a photo album, a crazy hat and a stack of suitcases, among other objects.
''Every table had a different cake, and all the guests were running to each table to see them,'' Mrs. Handman said. A small heart was placed under one wine glass at each table to indicate which guest had been selected to cut the cake. ''People are still talking about it -- it was the hit of our wedding,'' she added.
Earlier this month, Leslie O'Connell, a 34-year-old program director for a child psychiatric program in Elizabeth, N.J., and her fiancé, John Moorman, a 39-year-old I.B.M. account executive from Bridgewater, N.J., sat in the Manhattan studio of the cake doyenne Sylvia Weinstock and discussed their dream of a deep red and black cake for their wedding in August.

Should city employees be required to live within the city in which they work? It's a question that municipalities around the country have grappled with for decades.
The city of Sarasota may begin debating it as well.
Kate Lowman, president of the Coalition of City Neighborhood Associations, made the suggestion before the Charter Review Committee, which recommends changes to the city charter.
Lowman said there are many citizens who volunteer their time to help improve Sarasota, because they are invested in the community.
"The city employees work very hard," she said. "But there's an emotional bond and commitment when you live within a city."
Lowman said she came up with the proposal after hearing last month's City Commission debate over the police department's take-home vehicle policy.
Since 2001, the police department has allowed its officers to take home their service vehicles. The reason is neighborhood safety. The theory is that having a police car parked in a driveway lets criminals know that a police officer is nearby.
Mayor Kelly Kirschner questioned whether the cost outweighed the benefits, because more than half of the police officers in the program don't live within the city limits. The take-home policy allows officers to drive their vehicles home even if they live 45 miles from Sarasota. The city picks up the cost of fuel.
Lowman said she was proposing all of the city's 602 employees, not just police, be required to live in Sarasota. But her suggestion would only apply to new hires.
City Manager Bob Bartolotta said he's always encouraged employees to live within the city limits.
"If you pay fees, if you pay taxes, you're more invested in the community," he said. "Lots of cities have tried this approach, some have been challenged in court."
When some Cleveland city employees sued over their city's residency requirement, it went all the way to the Ohio Supreme Court, which ruled last year that no Ohio city can enforce where its workers live.
Michigan and Minnesota outlaw the practice.
New York used to require all non-uniformed employees (generally excluding police officers and firefighters) to live in New York. But in 2008 it changed its policy to force residency only for the first two years of employment.
Hartford, Conn., requires only non-union department heads and city council aides to live in Hartford.
And Quincy, Ill., dropped its residency requirement last week because of complaints.
Bartolotta said he would have to conduct some legal research to see whether Sarasota could enforce such a policy.
"Conceptually I like the idea," he said. "But whether you can mandate it will take more review."

Everybody needs a Rosie
Have you seen Sophia, the little 8 year old Nicki Minaj wanna-be sensation? And her quiet little back-up-dancer-cousin Rosie (age 5)?
Cutest little tiara-wearing-tutu-sporting-sprites ever. Sophia is hard to miss, but how 'bout that Rosie?
Aren't we all Rosies? The ones in the background, the back-up singers, adding a little more umph to the show, helping the Sophia's of the world really shine? Without Rosie, Sophia wouldn't be as confident, perhaps. Rosie is very likely the voice of reason, in fact at one point she tries to settle Sophia down, perhaps in a quiet whisper saying, "Easy cousin. Tone it down. We're on ELLEN!!"
Go out there and have a great day blog readers. Be a Sophia today, or a Rosie. Either way, you can't go wrong.

When is it too old to run?
I enjoy running.
Am I a fast runner? No. A long distance runner? Not really, my longest run was a half marathon, twice, and not without injuries. Does it come easily? I wouldn't say so. But nonetheless, I enjoy it.
Every now and again I toy with the idea of running a marathon, but then I think about the time required to train, the injuries, and the … injuries. If I recovered quickly I wouldn't mind them as much, but they often sideline me for extended periods of time, months, and it's not worth it to me.
And then someone like Fauja Singh comes along and it makes me wonder if it's in me. I mean, if he can do it at 100 years old, why couldn't I??? (Don't you just love his smile?!)
He ran his last marathon in 5 hours, 40 minutes, and 1 second … 8 years ago at the age of 92.
Mr. Singh is my hero. I love his story and youthfulness. The marathon may not be for me, but I love that he will motivate someone to lace up their running shoes and get out there.
Maybe it's you.
Mr. Singh completed his marathon yesterday at 8 hours, 25 minutes and 18 seconds. Pretty darn impressive.

"The Help" after 60 rejections
By now, I have to believe you've read Kathryn Stockett's, "The Help". I loved this book. And when I sold it for $1 at our twice-annual garage sale, I almost told the buyer that I'd changed my mind and I wouldn't be selling that book.
What's even more wonderful than the book is the author's resolve to get it published. She was rejected 60 times before finally getting it published. SIXTY TIMES!!!! She's my reminder for the day to never give up. If you're that passionate about something and truly believe in it, it'll come to fruition. Believe in it and yourself.
My favorite quotes if you don't get a chance to read this article (but you should):
- Her first rejection, "Story did not sustain my interest."
- 4oth rejection letter, "There is no market for this kind of tiring writing."
- After rejection #45 she's rewriting the last chapter WHILE in labor with her daughter, "…nurse looked at me like I wasn't human and said in a New Jersey accent, 'Put the book down, you nut job—you're crowning.'"
And my favorite…
"The point is, I can't tell you how to succeed. But I can tell you how not to: Give in to the shame of being rejected and put your manuscript—or painting, song, voice, dance moves, [insert passion here]—in the coffin that is your bedside drawer and close it for good. I guarantee you that it won't take you anywhere. Or you could do what this writer did: Give in to your obsession instead."
I'm looking forward to seeing this movie very soon. Let me know what you think of either (the book or movie)!

SAME-SEX marriage approval could happen in the next Parliament if both major parties offer a conscience vote, marriage equality advocate Rodney Croome has said.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said in Sunday's election debate that legislation would be introduced to federal Parliament within the first 100 days if he was returned to government.
Mr Rudd said Labor members had a conscience vote on the issue and urged the Liberal Party to follow suit. Religious leaders have condemned Mr Rudd's commitment and said it would cost him votes.
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott said the Liberal Party did not have a conscious vote on marriage equality and the decision to grant one would be made by the party room.
Mr Abbott said marriage equality was ``a very important issue'' but not a priority for him. However, that would not prevent another private members bill coming forward.
Mr Croome said Mr Abbott's response was a ``softening of his traditional opposition from the past,'' and could make supporters of marriage equality ``hopeful''.
He said the numbers on marriage equality would be ``very close'' if all parties granted a conscience vote.
``A Coalition conscience vote would give marriage equality a fighting chance,'' he said.
Three Tasmanian politicians - Braddon Labor MHR Sid Sidebottom, Franklin Labor MHR Julie Collins and Denison independent MHR Andrew Wilkie, who co-sponsored the bill - supported recently defeated marriage equality legislation.
The Senate has not taken a vote on marriage equality but five Tasmanian senators - the Greens' Christine Milne and Peter Whish-Wilson and Labor's Lin Thorpe, Carol Brown and Anne Urquhart - supported defeated legislation to have same-sex marriages conducted overseas recognised in Australia.

Bret Michaels sues cruise ship company
- Tweet
- Share this
LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Bret Michaels has entered some choppy legal waters.
The Poison frontman and "Rock of Love" star filed suit against Shoreline Tours on Monday, alleging that the cruise-ship company participated in "a fraudulent scheme" intended to get Michaels to drastically drop his agreed-upon fee for two performances on one of its cruises.
According to the suit, Michaels' was approached by promoter Willie Donwell to perform a two concerts on a "Super Cruise" this fall, with Donwell handling the promotion, as well as the collection of Michaels' fee.
However, the suit alleges, Donwell was "essentially a shill" for Shoreline in a "bait and switch" maneuver in order to get Michaels to cut his fee.
Michaels and Donwell, the suit says, initially agreed to a $750,000 fee for the two performances, to be paid through Donwell in installments. However, according to the suit, Donwell never had any intention of paying Michaels' fee, and shortly dropped out of the deal, citing health woes, after shifting promotion powers to Shoreline.
After an initial payment of $250,000 was made by Shoreline, Michaels alleges, the company, through its agent, Tim Towle, began complaining about poor advance ticket sales (claims that, the suit alleges, are fraudulent).
According to the suit, after the complaints, Shoreline sent a July 2011 offer to Michaels' camp, offering to continue promoting the cruise if the singer would agree to perform for just $100,000 more than $250,000 he'd already received -- or $400,000 less than $750,000 he'd initially agreed to.
Michaels is seeking damages to be determined, plus interest, court costs and attorney's fees. The suit also names Towle and Donwell individually.
Shoreline Tours did not immediately respond to TheWrap's request for comment.

Didith Marcelo (January 1,1989 / Phillippines)
Fruits Of Foe
I was curious when i learned your hostility,
I was surprise, unhappy to know your ways,
I was so pissed off when i witnessed your lies,
You change the difference, you block me once and try to trigger my temper,
I kept my silence and observed your crooked funky mindset,
Read all your thoughts such as filty blood rags of a lass.
I tried to blot you out of my mind,
But my vein insisted me as the impact of my heart ache cause me being sapped like a grapes of bunch trampled by someone strength of foot
You stole my art as i can see,
Tried to copy my journey free,
But you can never be like me,
Because God set the exactly being everything as the way i am.
You can never plunder and race against me,
You have no guts to set your ego above my head.
So don't ever challenge me for the reasons of your anger futility neither of your coveteous heart,
because you can never win, never win,
as God can see the reason you have,
Though you denied that you invited me
Yet but it's very transparent that you already lose out
the game of the champion.

Idola specus
This article relies on references to primary sources. (January 2011) |
Idola specus is a Latin term, normally translated as "Idols of the Cave" (or "Idols of the Den"), coined by Sir Francis Bacon and used in his Novum Organum, one of the earliest treatises arguing the case for the logic and method of modern science.
It is a form of prejudice, by which someone inappropriately extends norms or tenets that apply to his or her own culture and social group, or to his own preferences. Racism, sexism and, more generally chauvinism are examples of idola specus, but the concept goes beyond them to the criticism of all forms of irreflexive subjectivity or individual predisposition.
The term is one of four such "idols" which represent "idols and false notions which are now in possession of the human understanding, and have taken deep root therein, not only so beset men's minds that truth can hardly find entrance, but even after entrance is obtained, they will again in the very instauration of the sciences meet and trouble us, unless men being forewarned of the danger fortify themselves as far as may be against their assaults".[1]
Besides idola specus, there are also idola tribus (Idols of the Tribe, caused by human nature), idola fori, (Idols of the Market Place, caused by language) and idola theatri (Idols of the Theatre, which are caused by the influence of philosophers).
The Idols of the Cave are the idols of the individual man. For everyone (besides the errors common to human nature in general) has a cave or den of his own, which refracts and discolors the light of nature, owing either to his own proper and peculiar nature; or to his education and conversation with others; or to the reading of books, and the authority of those whom he esteems and admires; or to the differences of impressions, accordingly as they take place in a mind preoccupied and predisposed or in a mind indifferent and settled; or the like. So that the spirit of man (according as it is meted out to different individuals) is in fact a thing variable and full of perturbation, and governed as it were by chance. Whence it was well observed by Heraclitus that men look for sciences in their own lesser worlds, and not in the greater or common world.
— Novum Organum, Aphorism XLII
In more detail, Bacon enumerated several specific such barriers to science which result from the specific traits of individuals, coming into this category:
- "Men become attached to certain particular sciences and speculations, either because they fancy themselves the authors and inventors thereof, or because they have bestowed the greatest pains upon them and become most habituated to them."[2]
- "There is one principal and as it were radical distinction between different minds, in respect of philosophy and the sciences, which is this: that some minds are stronger and apter to mark the differences of things, others to mark their resemblances. The steady and acute mind can fix its contemplations and dwell and fasten on the subtlest distinctions; the lofty and discursive mind recognizes and puts together the finest and most general resemblances. Both kinds, however, easily err in excess, by catching the one at gradations, the other at shadows."[3]
- "There are found some minds given to an extreme admiration of antiquity, others to an extreme love and appetite for novelty; but few so duly tempered that they can hold the mean, neither carping at what has been well laid down by the ancients, nor despising what is well introduced by the moderns. "[4]
Bacon said that the Idols of the Cave "grow for the most part either out of the predominance of a favorite subject, or out of an excessive tendency to compare or to distinguish, or out of partiality for particular ages, or out of the largeness or minuteness of the objects contemplated. And generally let every student of nature take this as a rule: that whatever his mind seizes and dwells upon with peculiar satisfaction is to be held in suspicion, and that so much the more care is to be taken in dealing with such questions to keep the understanding even and clear."[5]

Custom Tattoo Blog
Nothing But Time
Sunday, 01 December 2013
I perform a lot of cover up tattoos. They are a good proportion of my business and I always tell my clients who want an old tat camouflaged not to be embarrassed by it-- it's just a marker of where you were in your life when you got it. Now you want something that reflects where you are at this moment in time. So, there is no judgement. Micah came in to see me about a couple of tattoos that he had-- some names that he wanted covered. He was influenced by a particular tattoo layout that he saw online but he wanted to change the concept to "Nothing But Time" to help him remember to think about things before jumping in to them. I told him about the Cover up/Camouflage Formula that I use (see the FAQ page on this website for more info) and that adding some organic material into the tat would make it more successful. He left that up to me; after pondering for a bit, I realized that it would be a cool play on words to use the herb Thyme for the coverup part. I liked the shape of the leaves; they would cover and mimic the old tattoo nicely. So I went from there. Click on the Read more link to see the drawing I came up with, before and outline photos.
Faith and Family Back Piece
Friday, 01 November 2013
Sara had an existing tattoo on her lower back that celebrated her faith and she wanted it touched up. But she also wanted to create a complete back piece that celebrated her husband and children and commemorated her father, who had recently died. She brought in a basic pencil sketch that gave me an idea of what she was thinking about; it was a combination of a cross and a tree, symbolizing life and nature, with a favorite quote her dad used to say. I created a drawing that was fairly comprehensive and we went from there. Click on the Read more link to see the drawing and the outline photo.
Hawaiian Style Cover Up
Tuesday, 01 October 2013
Timshel came to me with an old tattoo that she wanted covered up. She was very articulate, had done her research and knew exactly what she wanted, bringing in several images of Hawaiian flowers and tribal style designs. She also wanted to have her parents represented, so she brought their signatures in for me to use. She gave me artistic license to create something along the lines of what she was thinking of, and all I needed to do was make sure we used the Cover Up/ Camouflage formula. (The formula stipulates that the new image be: bigger, darker, use more line work, colors of dark value and the position of both new and old tats to move and fool the eye.) Click on the Read more link to see the drawing, the before picture and the result of our first two sessions--outline and gray shading.
Orchids for a Scar
Sunday, 01 September 2013
Ally had a large scar on her right forearm from an old tattoo that she had had lasered; she emailed me a photo of it and was wondering if there was any way to cover it up. I told her that with scars, I really need to see and feel them in person before committing to tattoo them. If the scar is flat and solid enough, many times I can tattoo over it successfully-- but some scars, especially ones that have been lasered, are not good candidates for holding ink. When she came in, she had done all of her research and brought some great images of orchids, a butterfly and a hummingbird that she was hoping to use for imagery. I ran my fingers over her scar and thought that I could tattoo over it, but because of the varying textures of it, was curious to see how it would take ink. We started in on the outlline and the scar was fine. She says,"After years of hiding the scar on my arm, I found the courage to reach out for help. That's where Victoria comes in. With a handful of photos she brought my vision to life. Not too long ago I would look down at my arm and see ugliness and shame. Now I look down and see beauty and freedom. No more hiding!"

A Rose By Any Name
Thursday, 01 August 2013
Eddy came to see me about adding to an existing tattoo on his left arm. He says, "The rose we're 'upgrading' is my first tattoo. When I got it, I had just come out of the closet and was inspired by the lyrics of a song, which itself was inspired by Shakespeare. 'A rose by any other name would smell as sweet' is a commonly quoted part of a dialogue in Romeo and Juliet, in which Juliet argues that the names of things do not matter, only what things 'are'. 'A rose by any other name is just as sweet'. The song expands on that and talks about how it doesn't matter what the world thinks of you and what names you might get called in your life. Now that I'm older I wanted to enhance that first belief to express the diversity of the community. Roses come in many different shapes, colors and forms and they're all roses. Even then, it doesn't matter what you call them. They're still beautiful. So with Victoria's help, we're turning my single sweet rose into a garden of delights. I can't wait to see how my rose garden turns out." Click on the Read more link to see the drawing and the result of our first session. You can see where the original tattoo is and the stenciled area (upper arm) that we will tattoo during our next session.
Feather and Floral Coverup
Monday, 01 July 2013
I tattooed a peacock feather on Nicole's right upper back and shoulder/collarbone area a little while ago; now we are working on covering up an old butterfly tattoo on her upper back/neck. We're using calla lilies for that piece. (See the first drawing by clicking the Read more link below.) She decided that she wanted to continue the peacock feather theme for a half sleeve but also add several flowers/plants that had significance for her. We added poppies, a thistle, some ferns and a fiddle head fern growing up and around her arm to her back. (See the second drawing below.) Nicole is married to Matt, (my June feature) and they are both working with me concurrently, tattooing their left arms. I wonder if they planned it that way. :-) Click on the Read more link to see the drawings, before picture and gray shading photos.
Underwater Sea Creatures
Saturday, 01 June 2013
Matt has several existing tattoos on his left arm but he wanted to tie them all together with a sleeve based on his love for diving. Also, he and his wife Nicole found an amazing illustration of several fantastical sea creatures that he wanted to use throughout the tattoo. When he came in for his consultation we got into a conversation about kelp and how cool it is; I was thinking how great it would be to use kelp as a unifying motif; I had visions of it swirling around his arm, with a couple of starfish embracing his existing tats. He says, "For years I have been thinking of a way to communicate my love for free diving. To train, I would dive down to the anchors of the kelp and sit Indian style around them. As I sat there I would become one with the kelp, moving along with it and really becoming one with the environment. When you become one, sea creatures that you didn't even know to exist start to make themselves visible. I chose Victoria because of a tattoo she did for my wife. The peacock feather was such a beautiful piece of art, I knew she could bring the flow I would witness on the sea floor to life in a way that would blend with my vision. It was also important to me to incorporate my other tat pieces, because they are all the story of my life. I couldn't be happier and am very anxious for the next session."

Blue Lotus Truth
Wednesday, 01 May 2013
Becky and her husband Rob came in to see me for Becky's first tattoo. She says, "Getting this (first) tattoo was a big step for me. When I was younger, I made the decision that I was never going to get a tattoo, ever. I wanted to preserve the natural beauty of my body and I thought a tattoo (obviously something that scars the body) would somehow take away the naturalness and perfection of the human body that I thought so highly of. After living in Portland for just a couple years (I come from a small town on the East Coast) I began to see how beautifully sacred tattoos are. I began reading about the history and ancient rituals of our ancestors and how they used tattoos as a way to document their lives and signify milestones of triumph, joy, honor, loyalty, adventure, pain, heartache and love. I see tattoos as a visual story of the soul, and since this was my very first tattoo, I wanted it to tell the story of my path. As a yoga instructor, I have always been drawn to the Sanskrit teachings of Satya (Truth). My own Truth always seemed to elude me and growing up in a Christian household I felt lost in many ways, unable to truly express my deepest desires and passions freely. The tattoo I chose for myself (a turquoise lotus flower with the fifth chakra Sanskrit word meaning "reflection" at my throat center and the Sanskrit word for Satya or "Truth" at the base - heart center - of the tattoo) is complimented and surrounded by the outward flow of henna art to signify freedom of self-expression. It's a symbol of transformation, healing and connection with the very essence of myself. On my 33rd birthday, the day I got my tattoo, I feel closer to my truth as I reflect on my past, present and future. This tattoo serves as a milestone and a reminder for me to always live the highest vibration of myself which is truth in sensitivity, connection, equality, and love. And I already have plans for my next tattoo." Click on the Read more link to see the drawing and outline photo.
Tropical Flowers Cover Up
Monday, 01 April 2013
LeAnn had some scars on her chest and was wondering if she might be able to camouflage them with tattoos. She wasn't concerned so much with total coverage but the idea was to make the area "more colorful, more beautiful." After looking at the scars and seeing how flat they were, I told her that she was a great candidate for receiving tattoos across her chest and that the skin was in such great shape that we could really do anything she wanted, image wise. She decided on tropical flowers and butterflies. She says, "It's interesting to me that the significant events of our lives can be fully captured in one or two words-- daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother. I recently earned another label-- cancer survivor. Back in July 2011 I had a double mastectomy resulting from a diagnosis of stage one breast cancer. Opting for reconstruction, it took three surgeries before I was successful with my prosthetic implants. I affectionately call them my "foobs" (fake boobs.) Wanting to celebrate the new me and rejoice in the metamorphosis that had taken place during the long journey to cure and reconstruction, I selected butterflies as the image to signify the change and successful transition. I am really happy with the new me and the images that Victoria helped me create to celebrate my new beginnings!" Click on the Read more link to see the drawings and right side outline photos.
Ravens, Roses and Skulls
Friday, 01 March 2013
Christian is from the New Orleans area and grew up near the great polyglot city that has a laid back, multi-cultural attitude. His aunt is a tattoo artist; when he was younger he spent some time in her shop hanging out and she's the one who gave him his first tattoo. Also, ever since he'd been a kid he'd wanted to join the military and when he got older spent some time in the US Marines Corp. So his tattoos are about those cultures; I describe them as Traditional American, Old School, or Sailor Jerry style tats and ever since he came into my shop two years ago, we have been working on filling in his sleeves with that type of imagery. He says that this current piece is informed by his admiration of Edgar Allan Poe's writings and that he wanted "something dark with the contrast of bright red roses (life) against the skull (death). And ravens are just incredibly cool." Click on the Read more link to see the drawing and outline photos.
