@Sarah, Bear, Redbearskie - LOL!
LOL, very nice! Umm, wish list: a wallpaper with the Details round table! Pretty please, with cherries?
(Bad Gwen!)
Ohh, purdy!
I still do not like the naked women all over our boy... :(
Though his finger on her is kinda hot.
Btw, the wallpapers are wonderful. Thanks! :)))
@crazy vamp I don't like any woman all over our boy! LOL!
I must change my computer wallpaper daily!! Robert is a very beautiful man!
Oh @ Fae. I do not either... but what can we do? This man is pure sex, and would be a waste to flush his 'morning glory' down the toilet... (ops!) I hope some lucky b* is having it ;) And she'd better do it right and make him happy!
Ask and you shall receive.
How's this
Now where are those cherries?
@crazy vamp bitch exactly! :D
Wow they are damn hot. I think we need a licence to have those hot stuff
@robxD you are right this hot stuff need to be protected
ROB Porn allert I guess I wont be here for a while;)
and Kate
I like "this"
Kate!!!! Muah! Here's lots of cherries---and whipped cream! ; )
That is gorgeous!!!
RobxD, no fair! (Whine!) LOL.
@Fae - You are Croatian, correct? Chicago has a large Croatian population and some of my friends are. They are trying to teach me the language, which is not going very well, lol, but I can say hello and how are you. Excuse my spelling because this is probably not right:
Dobar and Kako te.
@Gwen lol yeah no fair
@CL there are lot of Croatians in NY (which I love so much) as well, my family for example is there, that's why I have issues with RM...
And LOL, sorry fo my laughing but it's Dobar dan- Good day
Zdravo- Hello
Kako si- How are you!
You sound so cute! :)
Cherries and whipped cream... looks like I arived in time for something!
These wallpapers are yummy. My poor computer is going to go into melt down if I save any more sexy hot Rob!
@Fae - LOL! I told you it wasn't going so well. I, unfortunately only can speak English and a little Spanish. Btw, they have been trying to teach me for a while now. :-)
Maybe someday I will catch on!
Thanks Kate for finding these. WOW, chin on desk.
@CL I believe you will! You can ask me any word you want even the curse words LOL and believe me have the UNBELIEVABLE ones, our people are worse than sailors! :D
I have Sweden friends and first thing they thought me were curse words! LOL!
And I admitt, my language is hard, I'm studying it and believe me it's hard.
Hi NB's, was just sent an email about the Ukraine's Got Talent. This lady does pictures in sand to music that makes everyone cry. I was blown away. Thought I'd send the connection to you if interested. Just sent to my whole family, its really good and its You tube, of course.
Hope you enjoy it like I did. Did Angie and CL get their planes to NY yet? NYC hit hard from what the news says. My daughter lives in Phillie and said they only got 4 inches, not what they were told.
@GWEN I never said that I play fair LOL ;)
Ooh whipped cream my fave ;-)
Seriously you should see the size of my wallpaper folder, it's getting out of control LOL
@Nancy I saw that girl before! she is AMAZING!!!!!!!! I watched it with my mouth open!
@Fae,what Swedish curse words can you???
@fae, @cv, @kate, wow cherries and no one touches our guy but us! Right?
Grouching here. GRRRRRR
@fae, I totally agree. that vid is really amazing. Even though I do NOT understand any russian, its only at the end anyway. Did catch 1945 for the bombing.
Oprah needs to put her on her show. May send and email to her too.
Rob brings not only all the panties out of control. This man brings our computers to explode. The world is not safe anymore LOL
@Annie idk if I'm writing it correctly but it's
javla fitta and sug min kuk! :D lol
Just emailed Oprah producers.
@Fae, LMAO it was correct, You don't have the swedish keyboard so you can't right the dots over jävla. The last one, Rob can say it to all haters ;)
annieRPP: Thanks for making me a friand on your UT page. You got me hooked so you need to keep up the supply LOL!
@Nancy I don't understand Russian, but the pictures tell their story, it's amazing!
Yeah, cherries and us only! ;D
@Robx, wow that's an understatement.
I need Rob NOW..............
want to kiss him, touch him, love him, -sigh- I am jealous of whoever he chooses to mate with if its not me!
@annie, forgot to tell you, love your new name too. better than Patty... more Robsessed like.
Love ya
hi martini, welcome
@Dessert, i'm trying :D
@Nancy, yes this is better.
@Martini Hi :) Had a nice day?
Hello Martini Gal
sorry abit slow, reading alphabet weekends at the same time!
@Annie yeah I know about the dots, I've got the stupid american keyboard lol! :D
When they taught me I was repeating it to everybody, I even got the accent, lol, and once there were some other swedish group passing by and they were saying something to us, like you don't understand us we can say whatever we want, and we got angry and yelled at them "Javla fitta!" They couldn't believe it and walked away! LOL!
AnnieRPP: you better you don't want to see me without a daily fix of Rob, it could get nasty LOL
My day's been a bit emotionally stressful, so I'm trying to relax with Robsessed. How you guys doin'?
and yeah Rob can say sug min kuk to all the bullshit mags!
@Dessert - you're reading AW and able to type at the same time? hehehehehehe
@Fae, LOL you did good calling them jävla fitta ;)Just don't call me that ;)
Oh Kate!!!!! your linked wallpaper brings me back into "Red Room Mode"
Ah Lakit alot!!!!!!!
Martini Gal: yeah I came back to ROBsessed when they're not doing a letter!
My swedish is pretty much limited to Glög. hahahaha (I don't know if I spelled it right.)
Way OT,
Wow, just thought of a new topic for us. What is your heritage?
I am 100 percent Hungarian on my fathers side, and mixed Scotch/Irish/German on my mothers. Mom's mom was Scotch Irish and my mom's dad was German.
Everyone born here expect my Hungarian Grandparents. They were born in Budapest then moved here. Sorry fae made me think of this..... its her fault.... grin
Love you fae
@Annie and they were saying to us something like "fitt, fitt" as well! LOL so we cut them out with ours!
You speak Swedish?
@Dessert - hahahahahahahaha There ya go!
Martini Gal: they've just decided to forgo all the rules LOL!
Oh, now it's getting really good!
except, misspelled prev message. sorry, drinking red wine here already. On glass 3 so I'm in trouble.
Love this website and all the ladies that congregate here. Love the chatter no matter what is said. I appreciate all of it, positive or negative or nasty. hehehe Nasty = sexy talk
LOL Nancy love you too! :*
Well my roots are Italian actually, but I'm 100% Croatian and proud of it! :) We're such a small country with such a big people. :)
Oh and love Ireland! :)
@nancy - I'm 3/4 German and 1/4 Danish. :o)
@Martini almost glöggand it's so good.
@fae, i can sewdish too ;)
@ Nancy us NB's like the nasty Rob talk! You're welcome to join us at our "meetings"
@Annie but which on is yours? is it similar to Swedish?
I having trouble getting U.R.A. Fever out of my head - been singing it all day. I supose it's my own fault for overdosing on BAFTA Rob yesterday!
Hey Martini, whats with the Adam Lambert picture? Trying out new things????? hehehe
Watched American Idol all week. Love Ellen on there. Notice Simon is being gracious with the ladies and Hell on wheels with the guys. Even my husband noticed it. Also the judges seem more relaxed with Paula gone. Which is surprising. Why is that I wonder?
All I remember was that was some pretty potent drinking! Oh and how could I forget the lutefisk??? Maybe I tried to block out the smell of the lutefisk... hahahahahahahaah
My avis are always music/band related. And I lurves me some Adam Lambert!! He just posted some new pics from WDYWFM video so I grabbed it!! (Damn I wish he wasn't gay! ahahah)
And I and Love me some Ellen!!! I'm sooo excited to have her on AI.
@Fae, yes
@Martini, lutfisk is not good.Have tried surströmming???
@dessert that's a good song ;)makes me feverish.
this bond thing killing me...
@womadsart, well I read MotU. Do you? Took a few days but I caught up. Love that writer. She's like a Slutty Stephanie Meyers. Very witty but slutty. Wonder if any publishers would print that?
MotU is Master of the Universe, Fanfiction. I haven't had any stories blocked on my favorites, but when I signed up they asked my birthdate. Could that be why I am untouched? Maybe you ladies need to update your profiles on there? Just trying to help. Love ya all.
@dessert. I bought it for my ipod too! I LOVE THAT SONG!!!! maybe cause its relation to Mr. Hotness!!
@annie - I haven't had surströmming. WHat is it? I only had the Swedish exposure at Christmas. My fam's good friends always had a big Swedish Christmas.
@Nancy.... Oh I have it on my other window right now in my computer... just on chapter 42!!!!! So hooked!!!!
So new to plain vanilla!! (hee hee)
okay where is Gwen. She needs to drink a few and join us. Its going to be a long night I think. We're all over the place. Maybe cause Rob's coming soon! GAH
Can't get enough Rob. We really need to Clone him to make all these women happy! Need a few hairs. hahahahaha
annieRPP: please don't mention that word, as I'm reading AW at the same time today LOL
@Annie I know a little Finnish too, is it similar to Finnish too? LOL
You don't have to do a Bond thing if it's killing you! :D
@Nancy.. I love that sentence..
"Maybe cause Rob's coming soon! GAH"
@Nancy how many chapters of MOTU are there? I'm on the chapter 69.
@fae. 71
@womadsart oh :(
@Martini,thank god that you didn't.It's rotten fish!
@Fae,no finish is totally different. It's like comparing english and greek.I don't know any finsish.
Oh good! Me no likey rotten fish. hhahahahahaha
James Wonky Bond.
That is the problem, BAFTA Rob (damn I said it now... won't be able to stop!) and the song are making me dizzy LOL
@Annie sounds similar to me! LOL!
@fae, better catch up. It is chap 71. Read more. You'll love it. Its the pool table. hahahaha
@Fae & Annie - between you and sissidelyon and maybe I can convince Annie, I will be multi-lingual. Croatian, Swedish and French. I could work for the UN!
@Nancy - We are all set. The snow is supposed to stop tonight and rain on Sunday and the sun will actually be out on Monday. Duh, Rob will be there. The sun will be happy, too.
@womadsart & Dessert - Waving hello.
@Nancy I'm waiting for that pool table 3 chapters already! :DDDD
Fae: annie has to finish it, she can't just tease me and run off, thats like Rob torture!
(even worse - Bond Rob torture)
@CL se how Robsessed is good for us! We are learning languages!
Rob Bond torture - what have I just said LMAO!!!
waving back
**waves to CL**
@dessert. I can't stop now.. Im doomed!!!!
Thanks annie... all your sweet fault!
@CL, please enjoy yourselves and send lots of pictures. We are all waiting for them. (as if you didn't know?)
I would love to join you but I can't stand that long, waiting for hours. Plus I'd drive and all the roads are blocked right now. NYC is only 6 hours from me, on dry roads that is.
**thinks she may need to watch some James Bond this evening...**
Hi CL You lucky b!!!
Monday.. so soon but seems so long still!!!
hugs girl!
@martini, what some Pierce???? for James Bond???
there, I was trying to keep him in my head and it isn't working. He's out now and I'm going to go a little nuts LOL!
BTW I'm 100% English but have 0% English reserve!!!
@CL,you first lesson:
Jag älskar Rob ;)
@Martini you may ;)
So far I've don about 20 sec...
@CL,have you fix the twitter thing?
Hiya, Nancy! Here for just a few minutes, gotta head out for family wedding stuff. The whole weekend is going to be a bit Rob-less (Gwen pouts).
Just catching up on comments---my mom's side is German, Welsh and Irish! One of these days, I really need to do a family tree. One of these days...
And re the ff.net stuff---some authors are unable to post updates to ff---the one's who were "served" with TOS violation notices. Icy put a note on her last chapter. Several others did the same---telling folks where their stories will be in the future. Basically, updates won't be posted any longer for certain stories-in-progress on ff.net. You won't notice it until you wonder why some stories aren't updating... They are, just elsewhere.
Did I mention those Stupid Trolls? Yeah. Stupid Effing Trolls.
Not sure if I should go for Brosnan Bond, or Craig Bond....
@ gwen. hi!!
I know... those evil trolls... It is harder to read from Twilighted cause of black screen...
CL, please, please Tweeeet! Did consolidate twitter accounts and am now following you! ; )
Inquiring (NB) minds want pix of Rob in all his glorious Gorgeousness!
; ) To be that close to The Pretty That is Rob. Sigh. And Drool.
Martini Gal: to be honest I don't watch Bond films. They remind me of boring bank holidays as they were always on the TV then and my family always watched them
It's ROB BOND I want to see LOL!
@ CL Can I follow you tweeter too? What's your id?
@Gwen - I will tweet like a bird! Have fun officiating the wedding!!!
@RobPornPusher!!! - It's only 3:19 PM here, I am still at work. Can't get into Twitter until I get home.
@womadsart - you can change the "skin" in your preferences from Twilighted to White. and then you read black text on a white background. It helps!
womadsart, ITA on the dark screen at Twilighted. Think there's a way to change it (preferences?), but so behind on stuff right now...
That was one of the reasons I was reading ff at ff.net. LOL.
I would love to see Wonky Bond! But I still loves me a good Bond flick. :o)
thanks gwen. Didn't know. I think I can figure out. I'll check.. It's not stopping me though lol!!
@CL will there be ground support here giving us all the summarized scoop of tweets and yelps and squeeeals and sirens and wheelbarrows??
Double thanks, CL!!!!
Remember, still Ground Support Team!
firstname.lastname@example.com !
Crap, rehearsal dinner is in less than 3 hours---no idea what to wear! LOL!!!
Thanks, MG!!! Making a note to do the same---when I can!
Happy, Happy Friday ALL!!! Chat maybe late, late tonight or tomorrow! ; )
Go marry those peeps Gwen!!
Thanks martini, hate the black screens, can't read anything on them at all. will remember to do that.
Wow, computer help on here too. What else is new? We have fabulous ladies with fabulous minds, don't we?
@womadsart - It's Cullenlover07. Request to follow me and I will accept tonight. You can e-mail me who it will come from if it is your real name and you don't want it broadcast across the blog. email@example.com
@martini - RPG, Gwen, Annie, RPL & now Womadsart are running ground support. =)
Gwen, have fun, drink lots of wine and enjoy.
@CL sorry ;) I forget,It's 22.32 here...
ok just checking in for the day...had the tests run today for my son, it took over an hour just to take the blood, my son had a semi-melt down and then his vein stopped and they had to get to another vein, they took 8 viles of blood :( get the results next friday, THANK YOU all for your love and support :))
ok now back to rob....CL & ANgie i am so excited for you...but i dont twitter will someone be telling what's going on in the blogs, i hope so. also what the heck is going on with FF, i cant find some of my stories :(( and what is "A different forst" never heard of it.
Hey CL, when does your plane leave? Is O'Hare down? According to the weather channel, you were supposed to be boxed in......
Thought you and Angie were both leaving today. Glad you're okay so far. Rob may land Sunday, from what I've read, (totally unreliable), but he is doing shows the day after as well as the Premiere. Have a wonderful time. We all wish we were with you. Lots of Love,
I am a geek AND a Rob-lover! hahah
@ana73, check your profile, update your birthdate, and maybe that will help. I just signed on last month and they did ask my date of birth. Guess its for the M rating?
All on Fanfiction.net, please check your profile, that might fix things easily for you. Hope this helps. Love to all. All my favorites are still listed so far. Nothing is blocked.
Thank you Nancy, and i just found "a different forest" it another fic. story site and signed up for it too, so i am getting there. but i will update my FF account tonight.
@Ana- Yikes! I would have had a meltdown, too. He's gonna be just fine. I will say a prayer.
Re: Robstock 2010: RPG, RPL, AnnieRobPornPusher, Gwen and Womadsart will be following Angie and I on Twitter.
@ CL Thanks. I'll email you later tonight!
God, Martini gal, you're my favorite. I taught my son on a Commodore 64 (took classes at college), we've expanded from that to an IBM Dos.4, to Windows 95, then windows 98 to Windows XP, which I still use. He is using Windows 7, but I refuse to update to it. Microsoft makes these to get more money. I am happy with what I've got. Just recently replaced my printer/scanner to wireless. The drivers didn't work anymore, (due to updates of course), have learned not to update so easily. It outdates all my hardware.
BTW: My son builds his own computers now. He helped his mother-in-law with computers for an insurance office. Now they bought it and own it. (I think I had a hand in this). Keep in touch.
Love ya.
CL - so i guess they will be posting updates here or on RPG's site???
were you able to get tickets for any of his appearances???
Please add me, Twitter account name is
I want to follow too.
Love you all.
Ana, Hope all will be okay with your son.
I don't have a twitter account either, so we will have to rely on the kindness of our fellow Robessors to keep us updated on Robstock.
Nancy, go to the last chapt. of MotU. You will see that, Icy will indeed be moving her story to Twilighted. As have many before her, but not all.
Hey Ladies!
Just wanted to take a quick sec to let you all know that I have to deal with RL until later, but i'm still here and breathing! The pterodactyls haven't killed me yet!
CL and I share a brain, so whatever she says, ITA!!! with all of it!
Feeling the love and good wishes from our Ground Support!! Love it!
ROBSTOCK!!! Let the MARCH MADNESS BEGIN!!!!
<3 u all!
Hey angie! You and CL go and have SOO much fun!!! (And be careful)
CL & angie-k..
Am super busy at work but just wanted to say....
these are always nice but why do the designers feel the need to write his name across them? it would look so much nicer without and we all know who he is; at least i sure do ;)
In the words of Ellen
laugh. dance. robstock2010.
@martini, I totally agree,
Laugh, Dance, smile
Love Ellen too.
thanks ADM, do NOT want to lose her story. Love it too much.
She did say there was family coming and she wouldn't be updating soon. Will check again.
Thanks again,
Love ya,
@ADM & Ana - I would double check with RPG, but yes, I would assume one of them will post the updates.
@Nancy - you have to request to follow me and then I will add you. :-) Oh, and we are leaving on Sunday.
Wow, ADM, Read chapter 71 in its entirety there, now its chopped?
Going to the other site. Thanks so much.
Heard there are a lot of FF here too. Must check it out.
Kisses and hugs.
Your welcome Nancy. Knew you would not want to miss a MotU update.
@CL when are you leaving?????
I don't have a twitter, but I wanna follow!!!!! :((((((((((((((
adm - i am a little lost...the last update of MOTU was the pool table incident, was there another one since then???
@Fae - someone should be posting some kind of updates here or at rpg's place I would imagine.
You are the most talented people in the world. These are stunning. Thank you so much for sharing them. I have the plaid shirt one with lots of Rob expressions on my computer screen now as background and it makes me smile every time I look at it. Thanks so much.
Ana - no there's not been an update since the Pool table. ;o)
Ana, go back to the last chapter. It is gone and replaced with an authors note.
Did MOTU update? I still can't get signed onto Twilighted....
kate--thank you for the wallpapers--OMG they are too beautiful--esp liked the Details table
hi, guys--TGIF what a long a** week this has been--have fun officiating Gwen.
CL&angie-i can't even imagine how excited you 2r. is someone going to keep us informed. i don't twitter. will it be here or rpg blog?
rpp & fae--how is the vid coming--we need wonky bond
@dessert--Bond, Rob Bond :)
RPG, no update.
Whaddadoo wens!
rpg - it took me a while and it finally happened and then i had to sign on to "a different forest" fic site that has more stories that have been removed from FF.net this is ridiculous that we have to do all of this.
well i guess i shouldn't have put "we have to" because no one is actually making us LOL but it still sucks!!!
I can post updates and the others too,I think. Lets see what happens.
Thanks Martini :)
@wens I don't know if Annie is still alive! LOL
@ana--hope everything goes well with your son. sorry to hear about the blood draws--i work in a lab so i know how scarey that can be for patients. my prayers and good energy to you.
@Ana - AMEN! Suckage indeed.
@MG--suckage?? i think i missed something good or is it just my NB mind? LOL
@wens - HEY! I used to work in a lab!
@wens - LOL Ana was saying that it sucked that we were having to register at all these different sites to get our fix of ff. So I indicated that it was suckage! But any good NB will go the wrong way with that! er, wait is that the right way? hehehehehehe
crap, it's storm here so I can't go anywhere, I guess I'm stuck with Rob... :)
@Fae--LOL--i can think of a lot worse things. snowed in with Rob, just a bed and fireplace to keep you warm--ok, i better stop here--it's only 5pm--LOL
@MG--sorry my mind went to the gutter ha
@fae I'm still alive :P
@rpp--you haven't slipped into a Rob induced coma yet? LOL--how is the Bond video coming?
@wen,I blackout all the time ;) it's going fine,need some more work...
@Fae,Are you alright hon?
@Fae--are you ok?
I'm fine, thanks girls...
I don't know why I was reading those comments and commenting. I relive it each time when it's spoken about it or when I see it somewhere.
Whadado all Craig followers. Laughing out loud. Just love him too.
Rob is the Sex Machine but Craig tickles my Funny Bone. If they move him, he couldn't do what he does on late, late night. They'd forbid too much............Rats
Keep Craig as he is. Want Rob on here too. Must tell Craig. I did inform Oprah about the Russian lady. No answer yet.
@Fae *hugs*
and Nancy hugs and kisses to you too! Now I have to delete this as well!
@Fae don't talk about RM!!!
sorry Nancy was saying something to me, I was about to tell you not to come here til we delete it.
You didn't read anything?
Fae... delete your comment at 6:27 too please! No hints at all!!
:D No :D
Are going to sleep soon?
(check message)
Good for you Annie! Checking! :)
@Loisada DELETED! :D
HI, I'm back you wonderful ladies... trying to get registered on Twilighted. Do NOT want to lose MotU. Must read now.... I'd die without it.
Oh yea, by the way, read a book this past week (not new, 2001, but its Nora Roberts, "The Villa") It is so much like a twilight type of book. An Italian family have a winery in Venice and Napa Valley. The grandparents try passing it down to the grandkids, then all hell breaks loose, but there are two sexy relationships going on here. Anyway, assumed you all love to read, so thought I'd mention it. This book has NOT been made into a movie and I picture Rob in it as "Tyler" hahaha, same name. Just don't know who to contact. I'm in Ohio not LA or NYC. Love Nora and J.D. Robb, her psuedonymn. -sp-?
Enjoy, love and hugs to all here.
@fae, deleted... hope it was soon enough.
It was just in time Nancy! :)
@wens, whaddado from Crocodillio to you too. Gotta love Craig. Just wish he'd have Rob on there.
God, fae, thanks so much for letting me know.
I don't want to spoil it for anyone at all. Did not do it intentionally.
Love to all
Oh Kate!!! I guess that's all I can choke out! Wow Kate!! Thanks!

American Art Teabowl Made in Cain Hoy, South Carolina, United States, North and Central America1765-70 John Bartlam Factory, Cain Hoy, South Carolina, 1765 - 1770 Soft-paste porcelain with underglaze blue hand-painted (interior) and transfer-printed (exterior) decoration * Gallery 106, American Art, first floor 2012-77-1 Purchased with the Baugh-Barber Fund, 2012 |
LabelThis teabowl is one of four known examples made between 1765 and 1770 at John Bartlam's porcelain factory Cain Hoy, South Carolina, nine miles north of Charleston on the Wando River. Bartlam, a potter born and trained in the ceramic-producing area of Staffordshire, England, used local clays to create what is believed to be the first porcelain in North America. His ability to attract skilled workers from English potteries and successfully manufacture porcelain was a source of inspiration for Gousse Bonnin and George Anthony Morris, who were planning their Philadelphia factory.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |

Merchandising That Amplifies The Brand Story
Nikki Baird recently wrote an article for RSR talking about brands as storytellers and the importance of setting in conveying a sense of what a brand stands for. Sometimes this task can seem pretty straightforward. The example she used was Tommy Bahama with stores and restaurants that convey a relaxed, casual, beach lifestyle. Communicating that kind of brand story dictates some obvious natural-looking choices of design and materials in creating the environment.
Improve Customer Satisfaction And Reduce Shrink
Most people don't realize how many choices there are when it comes to designing a label or tag. Even the simplest of features can be cost-effective and can make a big impact in improving the overall retail store environment from back-office to customer experience. This white paper focuses on several features that can reduce shrink and improve customer satisfaction.

im gonna do a review of nothing lasts but nothing is lost - i use to write reviews for an ezine and i also produce so i am gonna go into a bit of depth - hope you dont mind
ok - so - easily my favourite album of last year. I listen to everything from rock, to house to drum and bass - everything except pop and country pretty much - and there is no album that is produced to such a high standard with such a range of style and craftmanship as this.
It quite simply is the ultimate musical journey. From start to finish this album seemlessly creates an atmosphere unlike anything i have ever experienced. Alot of people say that tales of the inexpresible is slightly better, easier to 'chill' to and slightly more quirky. And i would sort of agree. The epicness of some of the tracks in TOFE is mindblowing - but then, when you takeinto consideration that the whole of the newest album is one long epic track it puts that completely into perspective.
The album starts with plenty of energy. It builds up slowly as you would expect but once it gets going, the south american style guitar and beats create a fantastic rythem which cover pretty much the first 3 tracks. Periscopes of conciousness then slows it down a little, hard drums and an awesome vocal leads you into shmaltz herring which picks up the pace again and rolls on with typical shpong atmospherics and great little sounds bipping and blopping all over the place.
The next 3 tracks then mould together to make my favourite section of the album. It gets quite dark and intese. The bass line is emchanting and rolls superbly with the beats. This is where mr posford really flexes his filter control. The beats suddenly start warping all over the place and make mind boggling sounds. To me it sounds like a mixture of a comb filter and phaser - and ive never heard beats sound like that before!!! ON top of that, there is the crazy synth line that comes in and out of the tracks ( ithink it may even be the flute with lots of distortion and fx but im not sure) and as per usual the attention to atmospheric detail is astonoshing.
Next up comes when shall i be free - great guitar - beautiful vocal just an all round great track
im not gonna go through each track though there are just a few more points i want to make
1) the use of guitars throughout the album is immence, from the samba style in the begining, to the fantastic distorted guitar towards the end i am truely impressed by the vast range of styles they manage to emcompass.
2) The volcal filtering on the album is truely groundbreaking and has blown my mind
right, am gonna stop there as i could go on forever and disect to my hearts content, but i shouldnt - you will probably think i am mental.
All that remains to be said is that this album is a conceptual and musical masterpiece. From a producers point of view it couldnt be more mind blowing - there is no one in the digital music world who can touch mr posford!

After my rather cryptic OUC 5k Race Recap on Sunday it seems I have some 'splaining to do. Actually a few of you picked up on past cryptic posts and have been asking questions for awhile but I've been purposely putting it off. Why you ask? Because I do what I want! HA!
But seriously, a few of you have known about this for awhile (and I thank you for keeping my secret) and maybe a few of you had even figured it out or suspected (thank you for not stealing my thunder) but for those of you have haven't figured it out (which seriously, I don't know how you haven't... just saying...) here goes:
The expo meeting was brief, I spent the entire time avoiding him like the plague and making him talk to B.o.B & my cousin because I have the dating tactics of a 5 year old; When I like a boy I act like I don't, but I already couldn't wait for our impending drive up to Michigan together. We spent the weekend texting and had a few late night convo's with encouraging words for the race but that's about it. Cue Race morning... When B.o.B jumped in with me at 22 miles the first thing I asked her was whether or not he had BQ'd, and he had! I was so happy for him and hoped that maybe I might get to hug him at the finish line. (Little did I know he was already there, waiting for me...) I finished, called the fam and then called him. He found me outside the finishers area and picked me up and twirled me around... there was a moment, caught up in the excitement, where I almost... ALMOST kissed him. I'm such a hussy. The moment passed... (hello my DAD was RIGHT THERE!!!) ...and instead we ate girl scout cookies and regaled in the excitement.
Tuesday after the race we had planned to meet up in the city, hit the aquarium and then road trip back to Michigan. We had a blast at Shedd's, but it was one of those scenario's where both of us where unaware what the other was thinking so there was a lot of charged looks and casual brushes of arms... When it was time to go we hit the viewing area for one last glimpse of the city... it was d@mn near magical. I had him jump up on a pillar with me to snap a pic and so came another moment... that again, passed unfulfilled. (For the record I constantly give him ish for not kissing me then!!! You should too just for good measure!)
We headed to the car and began our journey North. Ate far too much candy and genuinely enjoyed each others company. Before splitting ways in Jackson we arranged to hang out again that Friday; He wanted to take me out to dinner, a date if you will. Each time we talked after that, the date would entail more activities... First dinner, then add a movie, "What about we do our long run together? You have a long run Saturday right?" I was starting to think that maybe he kinda liked me?!?
Thursday, my birthday, ended up being a crap day/night. We were texting and before I knew it I receive a text; "I'm on my way." Like a knight in his trusty Earth destroying SUV steed he drove down to Jackson and "rescued" me. As we headed back to Spikeville, Bambi's mom made the mistake of jumping in front of said SUV and cue evisceration of deer/front end. Not exactly the best way to start out a romantic weekend but whateve's... we were fine and a good humored friend picked us up and deposited us at our intended destination.
Now I had intended on catching an early flight home Saturday morning but instead, held captive in Spikeville, I was forced to have the most amazing couple of days ever. Poor me huh? Flowers, a super fancy dinner where I so class-lessly flung shrimp across the restaurant (Can't take me anywhere), catching "Zombieland" at the movies and thereby starting an ongoing joke between us, tailgating at MSU, an autumn stroll around his stopping grounds, crappy bowling and finally cuddling on the couch, watching a NOVA special on Marathon training. (How romantic huh? Only runners...) The whole weekend was nothing short of amazing, where hours slipped by unnoticed and filled with many a schmoopy look... and just for the record, yes we finally kissed. Total. hussy.
After I left he spent countless man hours trying to convince me to date him, those d@mn lawyers wear you down every time, eventually I caved and relunctantly became one half of a L.D.R. Endless hours spent on the phone, un-godly amounts of texts/emails, more than a few posts filled with hidden messages to one another and last Thursday couldn't get here fast enough... I will now sum up the weekend in list format with pics! Yay!
- Thursday: The most gorgeous flowers EVER arrive at my work just before the end of the day (In keeping with his surprise tradition... first the box of leaves and then the cookies)
His arrival @ MCO followed by a schmoopy look filled dinner at HUE in Thornton Park Friday: Thanks to the crap weather I had to cancel plans for the beach and instead dragged him around to run errands with me. 2 1/2 hours in the courthouse waiting to pay an expired tag ticket sure was romantic! LOL!
Lunch w/ Beaker Luv & Fam which means he got to meet the always adorable Baby RJ! (I received the thumbs up text from Beaker Luv shortly after leaving lunch)
Then it was off to see Ninja Assasin. Worst.movie.ever. Seriously.
After a quick stop at Taco Bell (because it was Taco Bell Friday - What can I say he's a freak of nature that eats TB every Friday without fail) we met up with my whole crew of peeps for a meet & greet / dinner & drinks session.- Saturday: OUC 5k - Read his recap HERE. We both took our age groups. Random huh?
Rocking our Recovery Socks we headed over to the Orlando History Museum followed by a stroll around Downtown Orlando and Lake Eola.
Then we had a fancy schmancy date night at Citrus! Mmmm!!! (Yes I know we look like we're going to Prom. Shut it!)
So there ya have it... this little Redhead really did have a whirlwind love affair the likes of which romantic comedies are derived from back in October. He is the absolute most thoughtful, amazing boyfriend I have ever had and the whole scenario is the craziest thing that's ever happened to me but I wouldn't change a thing... except maybe the whole 1,200 miles that lay between us... details, details...
End Schmoopy.

hi all, my friend and I started surfing almost 1 year ago (minus winter hiatus). We are getting up reliably on broken white water and are now trying to move to the unbroken waves. We are learning on beach breaks and are finding some frustration in being in the right place at the right time (precisely, not being there!). The beach breaks often seem to be shore dumps, or unpredictable breaks that always look better wherever you aren't.
I don't think I am confident enough to try out a point break where skilled people are (don't want to be in the way or make an ass of myself!) and wonder if anyone has any tips on transitioning from white to green. Do you have any suggestions on identifying or positioning yourself for the right wave, or is the key really to move on to the point breaks?
We were out today in some windy rough stuff and caught a few good ones, but missed many more than we caught!
(BTW, we are using 9'1s)

So unexpected. When I first saw some random person repost the lineup on facebook (first time I saw it) my eyes immediately went to Dre. and Snoop and I thought for sure it was another fake. Should be cool to check out, barring any conflicts.
Pearl Jam - Kaki King - Sarah Neufeld - Pan-American, Keith Fullerton Whitman, Ken Camden, Tim Hecker - Loscil, Stars of the Lid - Andrew Bird - Chris Thile - Laurie Anderson w/ Kronos Quartet - Coachella 2014 W1 - Chick Corea/Bela Fleck - Philip Glass Ensemble - Philip Glass

No one who is near the main stage during Dre and Snoop will be able to pass a drug test within the next 6 months. This is going to be incredible
I've seen Snoop twice over the last 2 years. First time performing an album in its entirety (RTB 2010) and once as more of a greatist hits (Pacific Fest 2011). Gotta say his greatest hits set blew me the fuck away. The only thing I can say for both sets is that he lagz like a mother fucker. Hopefully Dre gets things going in a timely fashion, really hoping there's no Justice conflict.
Coachella 07 (the introduction), 08 (the bands), 09 (the documentary), 10 (the people i came with), 11 (the relationship test... we passed), 12 (whatever the weather, Dirty Epic forever), 13 (the year of the troll)
I predict this will be a Beats Audio commercial.
So wait, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg will be at Coachella the weekend of 4/20 yet not playing on 4/20? What a completely wasted opportunity of amusement there.
ATDI will undoubtedly be playing main stage before Dre.
I hope Snoop says "COACHIZZLE" like, a lot of times. Won't that be funny?

I support this thread wholeheartedly.
Saw him at the Grove in Anaheim, he had a Funk backing band that was delicious. Never seen Dre live, much less both together. This was a shocking bill when I heard and IMO the best closer in the history of Coachella.
I can imagine something similar to this, smoke wise
You are such a giant fuckin douche.
Idol snake, get out of that skin.
I can count on one hand the number of hip hop acts I've seen but everyone knows this is gonna be a ridiculous party. Can't wait to see all the white people going bananas, myself included.
Re: Who is 2012's obvious headliner?
Being at work, bored like a mother fucker....reading everyones "obvious" headliners, I find myself thinking who would be headlining acts for two weekends in a row. I've come up with the three headliners I think are the so called "obvious" choice.
Dr. Dre has not been mentioned. Why? He could deffinately headline one day for two weekends in a row. He's better than Jay-Z, and Kanye. He's a hip-hop legend, and most importantly he lives in L.A. Dre also has a huge list 0f hit songs that would deffinately have the Coachella crowd jumping and bumpin', and getting their smoke on. It would be a hell of a fuckin party fo sho.
Radiohead is the other "obvious" choice. They have played APW a couple of times on the same weekend. Thom York's played Coachella twice either on his own or with Radiohead. The fans want it and I'm sure Radiohead are long overdue for a return to Coachella.
Daft punk is my last "obvious" choice. Last time Daft Punk played Coachella, they performed in the Sahara. Not enough space for the huge crowd that tride to get a glimps of the fantastic dj duo. I remember that night, and all I could think was "Why didn't Daft Punk play on the Coachella stage after Depeche Mode?" Daft Punk has never been more popular than they are now, and I can obviously see Daft Punk playing on the Coachella stage. Chemical Bros. did it this year, so why not Daft Punk?
So, there you have it;
Dr. Dre
Daft Punk

"SENTIMENTAL HYGIENE" - The literal translation of the song title means nostalgic for practices, such as cleanliness, conducive to health. It's ironic, since Warren had recently gotten clean and sober enough at that time to write and record this album. I would imagine he was longing to get drunk or high again! Neil Young's blistering guitar solo highlights this classic Zevon song.
"BOOM BOOM MANCINI" - It's a hard rocking tribute to a great boxer, who could take it as well as he could dish it out. It could also be an analogy for a particular singer-songwriter.
"THE FACTORY" - It's a Springsteen style ode to the working man, featuring Bob Dylan on harmonica.
"TROUBLE WAITING TO HAPPEN" - The song title is an apt description of Warren's wild lifestyle. Much like Ozzy Osbourne, Warren seems to suffer from memory lapses. "The mailman brought me the Rolling Stone, it said I was living at home alone. I read things I didn't know I'd done. It sounded like a lot of fun. I guess I've been bad or something. Trouble waiting to happen."
"RECONSIDER ME" - This is a ballad in which Warren tries to persuade his former lover to take him back. Boasting a memorable melody, a moving vocal performance, heartfelt lyrics and tasteful production, it's one of Warren's best songs. It should have been a big hit.
"DETOX MANSION" - This song takes a tongue in cheek approach to describing Warren's treatment for alcoholism. Nowadays, it's almost a requirement for a successful celebrity to go in for rehab.
"BAD KARMA" - I don't believe in reincarnation, but Warren has me convinced that predestination is responsible for a lifetime of bad luck. I especially like the sitar playing on this song.
Read more ›Things don't slack off in the second half. "Detox Mansion," "Bad Karma" and "Even a Dog Can Shake Hands," are the kind of quirky humorous rockers Zevon seems to write effortlessly. The
album then ends with the truly bizarre chant "Leave My Monkey Alone." On most of the songs Zevon is backed by the then-up and coming R.E.M., and as a result the music absolutely crackles.
Note: This reissued version of the CD is not really enhanced by its two extra tracks. The first is an instrumental that is nothing more than grating noise, while the second is a Spanish language version of "Leave My Monkey Alone." In other words, if you already own an older version of this CD, there's no compelling reason to replace it with this one.
There was considerable muscle being flexed here. R.E.M. were not yet the megastars that they would be in another year, but they were probably the coolest band on the planet. Minus Michael Stipe (who does contribute a background vocal on "Bad Karma"), they were obviously having a grand time providing Warren with some rocking drive on the topical "Boom Boom Mancini" and Springsteen-ish "The Factory." The sardonic irony that is one of Warren's strongest points is also given joyous reign in "Even a Dog Can Shake Hands" and "Detox Mansion." Who else but Warren Zevon could take such a turning point in his life and twist it so gleefully?
Yet an adult sense of responsibility surfaces here. "Reconsider Me" is one of the best pleas for forgiveness ever set to tape, even getting some airplay when the album was released. It's the sound of a man who recognizes what his self screw-ups have done to those around him, and is delivered with a rare courage. It's the central heart of "Sentimental Hygiene." The album's other attempt at a "hit" (including a video) was "Leave My Monkey Alone," which was funked up by "Atomic Dog" walker George Clinton.
Worth its wait and its weight, this was one of the best of 1987.

Dacia Duster 'Ecole de Ski Francais' Edition
Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos, Sports
Typically considered a budget brand, Dacia isn't a company whose products we normally cover here at Luxist. But this is no ordinary Dacia. This is a very exclusive version of their Duster sport-utility vehicle made just for French ski instructors.

Officials at the Internal Revenue Service knew in June 2011 that their agents were targeting conservative groups for additional scrutiny on tax documents, an inspector general report to be released this week is expected to say, according to a congressional source familiar with the inquiry.
Further, an early timeline of events compiled by the inspector general and obtained by CNN indicates the agency's practice of singling out conservative groups began as early as March 2010, and in July of that year, unidentified managers within the agency "requested its specialists to be on the lookout for tea party applications." In August, specialists were warned to be on the lookout for "various local organizations in the tea party movement" applying for tax-exempt status. The specific criteria would change several times over the next two years, according to a portion of the report.
An IRS official on Friday admitted the agency made "mistakes" in the last few years with tax-exempt status applications and specifically those submitted by groups with the words "tea party" or "patriot" in their names. Multiple conservative groups have said their applications were delayed and returned with lengthy requests for supporting materials, sometimes including website printouts and lists of guest speakers.
The Treasury Department inspector general for tax administration launched an audit of the agency's practices, and spokesman David Barnes said the report is being finalized and is expected to be released this week.
Barnes said the review was requested by Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and focused on programs and operations. An audit is separate from an investigation, which would assess wrongdoing such as violation of law or policies.
President Barack Obama's spokesman Jay Carney said Saturday that Obama believes the government should be staffed with "the very best public servants with the highest levels of integrity" and that "based on recent media reports, (the president) is concerned that the conduct of a small number of Internal Revenue Service employees may have fallen short of that standard."
"If the Inspector General finds that there were any rules broken or that conduct of government officials did not meet the standards required of them, the president expects that swift and appropriate steps will be taken to address any misconduct," he said in a statement.
Lois Lerner, director of tax-exempt organizations for the IRS, publicly admitted on Friday for the first time that agents used the keywords "tea party" and "patriot" to flag applications for further review, but she stressed that was done as a "shortcut" for picking the applications to review, not out of "political bias."
The IRS commissioner at the time said at a March 2012 congressional hearing that his agency did not target conservative groups for political reasons.
"I can give you assurances. We pride ourselves in being a nonpolitical, nonpartisan organization," Commissioner Douglas Shulman said. "There is absolutely no targeting. This is the kind of back and forth that happens when people apply for 501(c)(4) status."
The congressional source familiar with the inquiry understood that Lerner knew of the targeting in 2011 but sent letters to Congress earlier this year without disclosing the extent of her knowledge.
Lerner said on the Friday conference call that she "did not feel comfortable answering" as to when senior IRS officials became aware of the situation. She also said she could not give a time frame for when the IRS began looking into complaints.
She said the IRS has implemented changes to prevent similar mistakes in the future but could not say that any IRS employees had been disciplined.
The IRS said Sunday that the timeline in the inspector general's report was accurate, but that it "does not contradict" Shulman's March testimony.
"While Exempt Organizations officials knew of the situation earlier, the timeline reflects that IRS senior leadership did not have this level of detail," the statement from the IRS read. "The timeline supports what the IRS acknowledged on Friday that mistakes were made. There were not partisan reasons behind this."
The applications
The applications in question were processed by an office in Cincinnati that handles most applications for 501(c)(4) status and had seen the number of applications rise sharply between 2010 and 2012, Lerner said.
Some 75 conservative groups, flagged by agents because of their names, were among 300 groups singled out for this additional scrutiny, she said. The agency received more than 3,400 applications for 501(c)(4) status in 2012.
"They did pick the cases by names and that's absolutely inappropriate and not the way we should do things," she said, though stressing it was done as a "shortcut," not out of political bias.
Officials with some groups subjected to the scrutiny said they would have had to supply thousands of documents, stacked inches thick, to comply with the requests. Some chose not to, saying the agency was attempting to bury them in paperwork.
Tax-exempt groups are allowed to advocate for causes so long as their primary activities are dedicated to "social welfare," according to IRS rules. When an advocacy case is filed for further review, the IRS tries to determine if the group plans on sticking by that calculus.
The timeline
IRS scrutiny of conservative applications appears to have begun well before the groups had any idea they were in the spotlight.
The timeline prepared by the inspector general and obtained by CNN redacts events before March 2010 as well as several between then and July 15, 2012, when the timeline concludes. But between the omitted content is a series of events showing what was happening inside the agency.
Initially, unidentified managers from the Determinations Unit of the IRS searched for "applications involving political sounding names (such as ) 'We the People' or 'Take Back the Country.'" In mid-March 2010, the agency identified 10 tea party-related cases, and by April 5, there was a list of 18, though "three had already been approved as tax exempt," the report read.

Tennis Elbow Treatment
The cause of tennis elbow is an inflammation of the muscle attachments on the lateral epicondyle of the elbow and
Tennis Elbow Treatment
will be required. Is a variety of tendinitis. Lateral epicondylitis, also called "tennis elbow" is the term used when the muscle attachments on the side of the elbow are inflamed. Medial epicondylitis, epitrocleitis or "golf elbow" refers to inflammation of muscle attachments on the inside of the elbow. In both types of epicondylitis pain may occur at the level of muscle insertion into the bone of the elbow or may radiate to the forearm muscles and occasionally to the wrist.
Epicondylitis is usually related to overuse or direct trauma to the area. The pain is worse after a heavy or repetitive use of the limb. Activities that involve gripping or rotation of the forearm strong aggravating especially.
Nonsurgical treatment has three main components: protection, reduction of inflammation and strengthening the muscles and tendons.
- Reduce activities that cause pain
- Modify activities that aggravate pain
- Reduce the time or intensity of activity
- Perform stretching breaks
Other protection methods include using an elastic elbow brace or splint wrist and occasionally cast immobilization. A stretching program can be useful for reducing muscle tension on the tendon affection. The stretches include the affected arm and neck, upper back and shoulder, hand, wrist, forearm and triceps.
The second component of non-surgical treatment is aimed at decreasing inflammation of the tendon. This can be achieved with ice, physical therapy modalities (such as ultrasound or iontophoresis), anti-inflammatory medication and injections of corticosteroids.
You can apply these simple treatments at home:
Apply ice after exercise periods / work to reduce inflammation and get temporary relief from pain. For the application of ice surrounding the elbow and forearm with a damp cloth and place a bag of crushed ice on it. Keep ice for 15-20 minutes.
Friction massage and ice: Can be used to reduce inflammation and promote healing of the inflamed tendons. Ice causes constriction of the vessel surface, the friction dilators. To apply ice massage, fill a plastic cup with water and place in freezer. Cut the top half of the plastic cup. Gently massage the painful area with ice dunks every five minutes.
For friction massage, use the tips of the thumb or index. Rub the painful area. Start with light pressure and gradually go up to apply firm pressure. Continue the massage for 3-5 minutes. Alternating ice and massage, always ending with the icing so that the affected area will not remain inflamed. Repeat 2 or 3 times a day.
The third component of non-surgical treatment consists of stretching and strengthening exercises of the muscles and tendons affections. This is usually done after the above steps have managed to decrease the pain. In some cases, when pain does not improve with other measures, a strengthening program will lead to complete resolution of symptoms.
Your tennis elbow treatment should start with the exercises once you have been without pain for several days. The stretching and strengthening exercises are necessary for proper rehabilitation. The stretching of the flexors and extensors of the forearm as described will help to prevent muscle imbalance.

Three Studies of States Show That Freedom Works Best
Each year 24/7 Wall St. publishes the results of its survey of all 50 states and then ranks them from top to bottom — from "best run" to "worst run." CNBC does the same, only with a more concentrated focus on the business environment in each state, and then ranks the states on their overall "measure of competitiveness." The Mercatus Center at George Mason University looks at all 50 states from the perspective of individual freedom and then ranks the states based on its Index of Personal and Economic Freedom.
The parallels and correlations between economic and business performance and personal freedom are clear and persuasive: When state governments stay within their limits of protecting lives and enforcing contracts, the states thrive. And vice versa.
