Do you know if the USRP is in fact little endian? I wrote a little C program to test the endian-ness of my machine (which I am sure everyone did in CS 101) and its big endian. Endian-ness is based purely off the processor and not the OS right? Sorry for the somewhat non-related SDR question, I generally work with Java, so I sometimes forget about those silly low level details :). -----Original Message----- From: Dan Halperin [mailto:address@hidden Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2007 4:13 PM To: Wuest Brandon-WTVR47 Cc: address@hidden Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Output of usrp_rx_cfile and Input of ATSC demodulator -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Wuest Brandon-WTVR47 wrote: > I am having a problems with disk writing not being able to keep up > with the high data rate, so I am trying to do a little manipulation of > the IQ data to get around this.

A logical approach if your disk can't handle 32MBps linear write. I'll answer question #0 first: For converting pairs of bytes to complex, this might seem a bit (really, a lot) silly, but a simple way to do it in GNU Radio would be gr.file_source(gr.sizeof_char,"file") -> gr.char_to_float() -> gr.float_to_short() -> gr.interleaved_short_to_complex() You could also write a gr.interleaved_char_to_complex() block (which appears to not exist in gnuradio-core/src/lib/general) which would be a MUCH better solution but would require effort :-D. > 1.

Source files are assumed to be in local-Endian, and sink files are created local-Endian. Cross-platform is in the eye of the user :-D. Also, I challenge your assertion that Ubuntu on an x86 processor is big Endian. Endian-ness is a function of the architecture (except some crazy and/or cool chips that have an Endian-switch like I think some older Macs). > 2.

The Divine Is Not the Cause (video)
This excerpt is from the
Adidam Revelation Discourse
of October 20, 2004. In response to a series of questions about self-awareness, the nature of the ego, and how the self-contraction is caused, Avatar Adi Da speaks of the self-confinement of human beings (in contrast to non-humans as natural contemplatives), the effort to trace any experience or thought to its Source, and the Divine Reality as the True Condition of all things (not the cause of any thing). This Discourse concludes with Avatar Adi Da's confession of the direct and tacit Point of View of Divine Realization the universe as Unconditional Light.
This excerpt is part of the longer DVD,
The Divine Is Not The Cause
CD version
is also available.
A version of this excerpt with German subtitles can be watched
Avataric Discourses.
From mid-2004 to early 2006, Avatar Adi Da offered a unique series of Discourses broadcasted live over the Internet to His devotees worldwide. During these occasions, Avatar Adi Da answered questions from those present in the room with Him, but also from devotees all over the world via speakerphone. As He had always done, even from the beginning of His Teaching Work, Avatar Adi Da addressed each devotee personally, but was also Instructing all beings, in all times and places. Many of these Discourses are available as DVDs and CDs from

Some thoughts about the occasion of a festival and the significance of seeing performances, exhibitions, films and discussions with artists from other places: Well-aware of the impossibility of understanding a culture through a handful of events, I also see the essential nature of these offerings in a time when technology and news media construct the lens through which we perceive countries and cultures.
In a discussion called "what to expect?" I suggested that we enter a theater with certain preconceived notions, images from photographs or films, stories about people and places. A member of the panel said he thought it was important to come to these events with an "open mind." Each day I see another event, I realize that my eyes are open but my mind is a collection of sights, stories, statements I have encountered through other people, other places. This idea of tabula rasa is an impossibility in a day and age when we are surrounded by stimuli and messages. The festival is an opportunity to see how artists are making work both similar and dissimilar to Western approaches, and how their work reflects and refracts impressions of different cultures and histories.
This is antidote to the mediated information that streams through the internet: the irony of today is that the internet gives us access to information from around the globe at the click of a finger, but we gravitate towards familiar links and respond to messages from friends and colleagues. Instead of expanding our perspectives and awareness of difference, the Internet can narrow our viewpoints. With little substantiation of information, the internet is also home to opinion and vitriol, any person can post a comment and vent their anger. And of course this can all happen in the confines of a room with no other people around. As technology increases do we experience greater awareness of difference or expanded communication or more isolated existences?
To start with an image. At the end of the performance by Chandralekha Group called "Sharira – fire/desire" the two performers are connected by hands and ankles: Tishani Doshi holding on to the ankles of Shaji K. John in a hand-stand shape, while he holds her ankles at his shoulder level.
The two figures then "walk," although it is impossible to tell if she is lifting and moving his ankles or if his motions of walking are moving her body. It seems a perfect symbol of complexity and contradiction, to borrow a phrase from architecture. It speaks to the idea that the man and woman form elements of one another, juxtaposing familiar and unfamiliar. The intertwined shape could also be seen as a metaphor for the co-existence of the traditional and contemporary, a theme that reappears again and again in conversations surrounding the sommerszene festival, "China/India."
In the "what to expect?" conversation on June 22, people from Austria, China and India were invited to look at different perceptions of one another and the interplay of politics and art.
Expectations, particularly in terms of performers and audience, often revolve around a set of preconceived notions about an artist or art-form and these notions form a filter through which the work is seen. The same holds true for meeting people and traveling places. Most often these notions are created through films, newscasts, photographs and literature. For example, what do you think of when someone says China? For me the answer is Tiananmen Square – or more specifically the tanks in Tiananmen Square that circulated through the news in 1989. Critic and theorist Helmut Ploebst examined this image after a performance by Living Dance Studio. The discussion that followed discussed the framing of this photograph: was this image representative of the "fight for freedom" as suggested by most Western coverage, or a moment when a person inexplicably risked his life before his friends whisked him off to safety?
The almost contradictory reactions to the same source of information continue. On Sunday, June 24, The New York Times ran a slightly amusing story of a journalist for the paper who was locked in a toy factory in Beijing for nine hours and accused of being a spy. He says he was there to research the manufacturers of the toys which contained lead paint and had to be recalled. The ensuing crisis pitted an incredibly strong commercial sector against a much weaker police authority.
In everyday life two people look at the same incident and form completely different conclusions. Prior experience creates this unpredictable prism through which we see events. I smile when I see how our fantasies become reality in Salzburg where the Sound of Music tours give visitors the opportunity to make a fictional film "real." What do we see in the performances from abroad? Do images match or disrupt our preconceptions about a place or people?
If I think about the notion of "cultural exchange," I see a network of agendas and results. Historically, in post-WW2 U.S. history, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower began a program of funding dance companies to tour to foreign places, artists were chosen as exemplars of American strength, creativity and beauty. One of the ironies of this program features a story about the dancer Dudley Williams, a long-time member of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater who tells of touring Africa as a representative of the United States while at home he encountered incidents of pronounced racism and segregation. Clare Croft, a dance scholar at the University of Texas, is currently researching the discrepancies between the presentations on stage and realities behind the curtains.
During the sommerszene festival, events like the discussions and blog are paths to examining assumptions and misnomers: artists and audiences share their impression and interpretations. Tishani, the dancer described earlier in Chandralekha's piece said of Salzburg, "I expected it to be pretty and like a toyland, and I think it is very beautiful in a postcard kind of way." Asked about the most striking contrast between Austria and India, she laughed: "I walked on the bicycle path today by mistake! Here, I think everything is very organized. In India there is understood chaos. For people who don't understand this, when they visit India, they question how anything is ever accomplished. Here, when you do something wrong, people point it out to you."
On stage her performance was powerful, although to me, I needed time to digest her presentation of incredible beauty and sensuality as a feminist statement. Knowing that Chandralekha believed strongly in a woman's independence – and that she herself took a position against marriage – how could she make this piece where the man on stage did grand gestures and strong balancing poses while the woman in front of him, Tishani, lay on her stomach, her legs spread wide in a side split, and slowly inched herself towards the audience, using squiggling motions of her feet to locomote?
The day after Chandralekha Group's last performance, I happened to see the performers at the Salzburg Airport. Our flight was canceled, extending our conversation and there we spoke about this moment and the last image described earlier with her in the handstand, held by Shali John. Connecting images and philosophies from other places, Tishani said she thinks of it like the "Yin-Yang" from China. Not only does this explanation draw on a global awareness, it also sheds light on a statement Chandralekha made that women are "51% female and 49% male."
Complexity and Contradiction
Sadanand Menon, light designer and advisor to the company, worked closely with Chandralekha before she passed away last year. In the conversation "What to expect?" he challenged the Western idea that Globalization threatens the traditional cultures by exporting Western lifestyles -- fast-food, popular films and hip-hop music, which hold little in common with the music and culture of India.
Sadanand explained that the "traditional" Indian dance form Bharata Natyam was first named in 1926, making it younger actually than the Ford car. This "traditional" dance was christened at the same time as Martha Graham's first modern dance concert in New York City, and she is known not as a traditional dancer, but as a pioneer of American modern dance. Sadanand suggested that the ideas of "ancient civilization" and "fixed identity" hold little substance. He does not see India threatened by Western culture, but rather the idea of superiority in the people of India stems from a history that predates the West by centuries, with a wealth of artistic ideas and innovations. He described the changes of globalization as fast and swift but balanced by a sense of perspective and a broader understanding of life defined by more than economic value.
His words generated a personal revisioning of Chandralekha's work: by embracing forms such as yoga and kalaripayattu she brings tradition together with contemporary ideas. Rather than negating each other, they co-exist: performers are dressed traditionally, but they do not tell a story like most Indian art forms. The music threads a mercurial line into the visual forms, but the performers and musicians co-exist in an indeterminate system.
Living Dance Studio
Several days after Chandralekha's performance, Living Dance Studio presented "Report on Giving Birth," choreographed by Wen Hui. It was interesting to see this performance an hour after watching Wu Wenguang's "Dance of the Farm Workers," a documentary that featured 30 manual laborers in Beijing creating and showing a piece created in collaboration with choreographer Wen Hui.
Wu Wenguang and Wen Hui are partners in art and life and share a palpable intelligence and determination. In conversations before and after the performance Wu Wenguang spoke about his film and the inability of art to change social situations, acknowledging the divide between manual laborers and contemporary culture.
The workers in the film are asked "if you could change anything what would you change?" One man described the frustration of working for an employer who, at the end of the day, doesn't pay (for the documentary film, each worker in the film was paid 30 yuan a day which converts to 3 euro). The same worker spoke of the humiliation of being asked for living certification by police and continually suspected of wrong-doing (This particular moment reminded me of the descriptions of apartheid in Nelson Mandela's autobiography Long Walk to Freedom and the degradation of living with pass laws).
The man in "Dance of the Farm Workers" then asks "why do they treat us like that?" His awareness of the lack of respect is set in contrast to the power and beauty of their bodies in motion. Coached by Wen Hui, the men move through contact improvisation exercises, group formations, game-like tasks. Images of the group moving together, 15 of them walking and 15 perched on the others' shoulders, are stunning. There is a sincerity in the creation and this is a word I would also use in describing Chandralekha's work.
It is very different from the European sampling of contemporary performance I have seen in the past year. A common element in many performances in Austria is a sense of resistance or irony, as one Austrian choreographer said recently at Republic "I wanted to show something I would not want to watch myself."
In contrast, the two performances from India and China – stylistically very different from one another – emanate from a desire to show or create an image, an emotion, a sentiment. There is less irony or pretension. "Report on Giving Birth" by Living Dance Studio is based on a human endeavor and driven by human limitations: pain, fear, anxiety. I could not understand the Chinese words or German translation, but the dancers' expressions and movement told of experiences that were traumatic. Chandralekha's "Sharira" evokes a very different sense of tranquility, balance, harmonious forces, but both are presentations of an idea or statement which use the human body as an expressive medium. Both acknowledge an inherent sense of value for people, a kind of humanity, even if this idea, in the case of Living Dance Studio, is emphasized by showing what happens when a particular group of people lacks respect or worth.
The intensity of the performers in both companies is stunning: particularly Wang Ya'nan in "Report on Giving Birth," who washes her incredibly long hair in the midst of the performance. Her body is fluid and expressive: in a section of "Report," she and Wen Hui prop their bodies up, pushing their arms against cot-like beds. They twist and torque their legs and torsos as if caught in an endless, almost violent loop between sitting on the bed and standing up.
Wen Hui said of the piece: "We wanted to capture the things women struggle with, whether it is having children or other social pressures. Women in China, women all over the world, are still not equal, we still struggle. And childbirth is that moment when you are open wide, everything is ripe."
Seen side by side these artists from India and China offer varying perspectives, but the places for contemporary artists in their home countries are quite different. The morning in the airport after the performances, Sadanand told me a story about Chandralekha when she was chosen to present a scroll to Chairman Mao in 1953. On the scroll was a poem by Harindranath Chattopadhyaya, containing the lyrics "Hindi – Chini – Bhai – Bhai;" translated from Hindi: "India and China are brothers".
The Living Dance Studio, on the other hand, plans its performances to avoid government recognition. As a website from Beijing called "Beijing Scene" describes: "These days Wen Hui is bringing that creative freedom back to China, and it is not always easy. Issues of censorship and a lack of funding makes the PRC less than an ideal creative environment. Funding for Report on Giving Birth came from the Dutch Prince Claus Fund and the Yunnan Jumping Dragon Culture and Broadcasting Company Ltd. To avoid getting a permit for the project, which would involve censors scanning the content for inappropriate sexual or political content, the Living Dance Studio made it an unofficial production. Hence the 'two nights only' performance and 'free' tickets. Ironically, putting on such a production in defiance of Chinese regulations is more like pulling off an underground guerrilla action, but the very same work is publicly celebrated abroad … Wen Hui may be recognized internationally, but she is determined to remain a Mainland artist. 'If I lived abroad I would be a failure,' she says. 'Of course I could work, but I would lose contact with my creative roots. China gives me such a rich backdrop, it is the passion and energy I need to dream.'"

George Littlechild, Cross Cultural Examination #2, 2007, ink jet print on paper
Paradoxes concerning First Nations and cowboy culture are a perennial topic when it comes to the Calgary Stampede; one addressed this year via a triptych of exhibits at Jeff Spalding's new venture, the Museum of Contemporary Art Calgary. Prominent is a show from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts (AFA) collection featuring Aboriginal artists and shaped by curatorial input from the late Joane Cardinal-Schubert (1942-2009) in whose memory the show is dedicated.
Combining stories past and present Narrative Quest gives vision to First Nations' histories, while also articulating future hopes. Consolidating the AFA's efforts to bring coherence to their Aboriginal holdings, there's a chance to see traditional works such as stone carving alongside performative photography by Terence Houle, mixed media works by George Littlechild, and some of Schubert's paintings. These artists present, respectively, ironic and humorous depictions of the urban hunter-gatherer, juxtapositions of residencies and identities suggestive of dislocation and cultural ambivalence, and dreamtime scenes including Looking for the Silver Bullet and a canvas counterpane, all of which speak to a desire for sleeping and living peacefully. Other Narrative Quest artists include Jane Ash Poitras, David Garneau, Faye Heavyshield, and Bruno Canadien.

Turning to cowboy conventions, Aimee Benoit has curated cultural artifacts marking the 100th anniversary of the Calgary Stampede. A must-see is the large illustrated 1949 letter from Stampede founder Guy Weadick: "I hope... the cowboys don't get hurt to (sic) bad, and the injuns get the wrinkles out of their bellies and their ponies too." This is likely interpreted as hoping the First Nations are not underfed or hungry. Yeehaw and giddy-up down to MOCA, now opening new exhibits every first Thursday of the month with a Carl Beam show to come. For the shows listed here there are free talks every Saturday at 2.30pm.
MOCA Calgary: http://mocacalgary.org/
Narrative Quest continues until August 25.
My Stampede continues until July 28.
Carl Beam opens on August 2 and continues until August 25.

Rajputana Customs 'Nandi'
This bike, believe it or not, was a wedding gift. No, it wasn't on the gift registry but the soon-to-be groom Subhayou Nayak decided to buy himself a little present before the big day. Smart guy. So he commissioned Vijay Singh and his team at Rajputana Customs in India to build him something special. The brief for the bike was pretty straight forward. "Subhayou specified that he wanted an old-school-looking fatty, with a 300mm rear tyre and a Royal Enfield 500cc engine" said Vijay. Apart from that, they could pretty much do what they wanted.
Vijay and co-workers spent two solid months building everything on this bike which they then named 'Nandi' (after the bull in Hindu mythology that Shiva rides and is protected by). "The thing with building custom bikes here in India and more so at Rajputana Customs is that every bike is literally built from scratch, the chassis, gas tanks, hubs, rims, sprockets, jack shafts, springers, girders... and the list goes on" says Vijay. "Apart from the engine and tyres we pretty much build everything in-house. It's an 'eventful' learning experience."
Rajputana Customs are receiving some worldwide attention for the motorcycles they are building. Sure, the fat tyre on Nandi might not be to everyones taste but there's no denying this is a beautiful piece of workmanship and one very cool bike. We can't wait to see what they build next.

Parental guidance recommended
Director: | Jean-Luc Godard |
Actors: | Jean-Paul Belmondo, Jean Seberg, Daniel Boulanger, Henri-Jacques Huet, Van Doude, Claude Mansard |
A small time crook. Michel Poiccard, chased by the police after stealing a car, shoots one of them and flees. Back in Paris he finds an American girlfriend and succeeds in seducing her again. He convinces her to go to Italy with him. But the police have discovered the murderer's identity and are on his trail...
Godard, who once said, "all you need for a movie is a gun and a girl," is one of the most influential filmmakers of the 20th century, and introduced many techniques that have since become standard fare: jump cuts, hand-held camera work, unusual camera angles, and improvised dialogue. Asked by a fellow filmmaker if he would at least admit that a film should have a beginning, middle, and end, Godard replied, "yes, but not necessarily in that order." Godard's influence can be seen in the work of many other directors, including Robert Altman, martin Scorsese, Wim Wenders, and Quentin Tarantino.

With news that the blistering 33-week streak of investors' mass exit from U.S. equity funds ended in the final week of 2010, value investors should be particularly delighted. Although many value funds saw double-digit gains in 2010, growth funds continued to outpace the former, a continuation of 2009 when the Morningstar U.S. Growth index returned more than double that of its value index. Much of 2010's outflows came from value fund investors, according to the Morningstar, whose preference for safety pushed them away from the stock market into bonds.
[In Pictures: 10 Best Small-Cap Blend Funds for the Long Term.]
A new book, The Triumph of Value Investing: Smart Money Tactics for the Postrecession Era, challenges investors not to turn their back on this classic strategy. Author Janet Lowe also addresses the subject as it pertains to commodities and foreign stock markets. Recently, U.S. News spoke with Lowe about how value investing has changed in recent years and how these strategies have changed since the philosophy's progenitor Benjamin Graham arrived on the scene.
After the market turmoil at the beginning and end of the last decade, many investors appeared to give up on the value of value investing and stocks in general, preferring bonds and commodities instead. Do you believe there are ever multi-year periods when value investing doesn't work?
No, I don't, because value investing, if you follow it, you would have been a little better prepared. Of course it was such a massive event that hardly anyone escaped unscathed, but value investors overall did better. And then an event like this is a great opportunity for value investors to buy what they need and ride the market higher. Even in my own experience with my own portfolio, I came back faster than most people in the economy.
Growth stocks beat value stocks in both 2009 and 2010. Do you think a change of fortune is in the air?
I would encourage people to think more long-term, because that is the best protection. But I'm also one of these people who take exception with the general field of growth versus value. I think a lot of growth stocks are also value investments. If they have the basic fundamentals, you can have a growth segment in your value portfolio. But it's not based on speculation.
Google is an example. Even when it went public, there was enough information. There was an earnings and sales history you could look at and make an evaluation.
How has the value investing landscape changed in the post-recession era, and how, if at all, should less-experienced value investors alter their strategies?
Two of the changes had already occurred, and they were that global investing and technology investing had become necessary. You couldn't avoid these fields.
The next one is that you have to take into account the value of the dollar, because investing has become so global even when investing in U.S. equities. A General Electric or a Kraft Foods has a worldwide span. The strength of the dollar and the future of the dollar is a new element to consider. You have to realize that the dollar may be vulnerable because of our deficit and what's going on in the rest of the world. I emphasize in this book that you can't always expect the dollar to be as dominant as it once was. We'll have good years and bad years, but you always have to be ready for the bad years.
[See top-rated mutual funds by category ranked by U.S. News Score.]
What is the most common misunderstanding of value investing?
A lot of people think it's just a formula. You take six different elements, you plug in the numbers and you come up with something. But it's actually a philosophy of trying to find undervalued investments in whatever field you're investing in. You could even realistically apply it to buying real estate. You want to buy the highest quality that you can at the lowest price you can. I think sometimes certain value funds are misnamed because they have such a narrow definition, but I like a much broader definition.
If an investor isn't confident about buying individual stocks, are there any value mutual funds you trust?
I think there are families that are very reliable. T. Rowe Price has some value funds, but you also need to look at the market cycles and whether the market is overvalued or undervalued in general. Even the best fund, if you buy in at the wrong time, you will have mistakes. David Iben's [Tradewinds Value Opportunities] fund over at Nuveen has worked very well.
Is value investing by itself a worthy investment philosophy, or is it essential to marry it to some form of technical analysis or market forecasting?
I tell people to look at all the information you can. You can't let crunching numbers override common sense. That's why gathering information and just understanding what's going on in the world is very important. For a value investor, or any investor, you need to be informed … Gold is a good example. I would say that if you looked at everything going on there, at some point you have to say gold is overvalued, because it can only go up so far. It can only serve so far as an insurance against currency risk.
You mention value investing's godfather, Benjamin Graham, in a chapter called Virtues and Vices of Graham's Philosophy. What are some of the vices you mention?
Graham was too cautious for contemporary times. He had gone through the crash and the Great Depression, and for instance, he was very interested in IBM, but he wouldn't do it because it was a new technology and it scared him. I think we have to get over that today, because we're in a world of technology. We have to learn about it.
The other thing that was different for Graham was that he went through a very, very long time where there were a lot of undervalued securities. It made it easier for him to find deep, deep discounts. We're not always going to be able to operate in the same climate that he did. The other thing was he would buy regardless of quality if he thought it was undervalued. I don't encourage most people to do that. Most readers need a little more long-term stability than that. And that type of investing almost requires you to be a professional investor. You have to know a lot.

- The restaurant has a very typical essence of the East - from its cane furniture, high windows, yellowish walls to huge elephants painted behind the bar. It s a very chirpy and comfortable place as lots of light flows right through the windows. Food is palatable but not really the best you would find in the region and the staff is pretty affable and helpful. It has an outdoor seating arrangement with a pretty view but during the winter it is quite impossible to sit outside. The crowd that pours in is a mix of tourists, students and locals, especially those who visit the nearby museum.

Dublin 0-14 Meath 1-05
THE DUBLIN FOOTBALLERS put the disappointment of last year behind them to become All Ireland Minor champions for the 11th time with a comprehensive six point victory over Meath on Sunday.
The Dubs, who had already beaten Meath in the Leinster final this year, looked comfortable throughout, despite the Royals getting the first score of the game with a free from Fiachra Ward.
However, Dublin took the lead after five minutes with rapid fire points from Niall Walsh and man of the match Cormac Costello.
It was a lead they held for the rest of the game and added to with points from Eric Lowndes, Shane Carthy and three more from Costello. Meath's sole reply came from wing-forward Cillian O'Sullivan, giving Dublin a 0-07 to 0-02 lead a half-time.
Dublin increased that lead to six five minutes into the second half through Niall Scully.
This seemed to spark Meath into life and they soon narrowed Dublin's lead to four points through Fiachra Ward and substitute Patrick Kennelly.
The gap was down to just one point after Kennelly was deemed to be fouled in the area and Ward slotted home the penalty to make it 0-08 – 1-04.
However, Dublin soon regained their stranglehold on the game and scored six unanswered points to secure the win.
Speaking after the game to TV3, Dublin manager Dessie Farrell said: "It It was a very difficult defeat to take last year. There were some of
the same players involved from last year and if anything it spurred us on to great things.
"There were a lot of new players too and we didn't want to be putting the baggage on them.
"It's brilliant – it's for more nerve-wracking than a player. They've transformed from boys to men over the season."
DUBLIN: Cormac Costello 0-5 (0-4f), Shane Carthy 0-3 (0-3f), Niall Scully, Niall Walsh 0-2 each, Eric Lowndes, David Campbell 0-1 each.
MEATH: Fiachra Ward 1-2 (1-0 pen, 0-2f), James McEntee, Cillian O'Sullivan, Patrick Kennelly 0-1 each.
DUBLIN: Lorcan Molloy; Emile Mullan, David Byrne, Ross McGowan; Eric Lowndes, Conor Mulally, Maitias MacDonncha; Stephen Cunningham, Shane Carthy; Robert Gaughan, Niall Scully, Niall Walsh; Conor McHugh, Cormac Costello, Gavin Burke. SUBS: Shane Cunningham for Robert Gaughan, Donal Gormley for Gavin Burke, David Campbell for Niall Walsh, Michael Deegan for Niall Scully

Vampires [1998]
Buy this movie now
Valek: Isn't it beautiful? Something you'll never forget? I know I won't.
Jack Crow: You ever seen a vampire?
Father Adam Guiteau: No I haven't.
Jack Crow: No... Well first of all, they're not romatic. Its not like they're a bunch of fuckin' fags hoppin' around in rented formal wear and seducing everybody in sight with cheesy Euro-trash accents, alright? Forget whatever you've seen in the movies: they don't turn into bats, crosses don't work. Garlic? You wanna try garlic? You could stand there with garlic around your neck and one of these buggers will bend you fucking over and take a walk up your strada-chocolata WHILE he's suckin' the blood outta your neck, alright? And they don't sleep in coffins lined in taffata. You wanna kill one, you drive a wooden stake right through his fuckin' heart. Sunlight turns 'em into crispy critters.
Valek: For 600 years I have fed on your kind at will.
Jack Crow: I killed my own father, padre. I got no trouble killing you.
Jack Crow: Let me just ask you one thing - after 600 years, how's that dick workin', pretty good?
Father Adam Guiteau: A master vampire, able to walk in the sunlight, unstoppable. Unless we stop him.
Jack Crow: Can I ask ya somethin, Padre? When I was kickin? your ass back there... you get a little wood?
Father Adam Guiteau: What?
Jack Crow: Valek is the original! The source of the disease! The first vampire created by the Catholic Church...
Father Adam Guiteau: By accident...
Jack Crow: SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Jack Crow: Hey, Valek! Why don't you prove you can kick my ass! Come on, Untie me, you prick! Fucking pulse-smoking fashion victim!
Jack Crow: Let me ask you a question. When you were stabbing that vampire in there?
Father Adam Guiteau: Yeah?
Jack Crow: Did you get a little wood?
Father Adam Guiteau: Mahogany.
Jack Crow: Excuse me?
Father Adam Guiteau: Ebony.
Jack Crow: What?
Father Adam Guiteau: Teak.
Jack Crow: Are you possessed by demons?
Father Adam Guiteau: Major Chubby.
Jack Crow: Language, Padre, language!
Father Adam Guiteau: You didn't tell me they could do that!
Jack Crow: I didn't *know* they could do that!

11:34am Wednesday 13th June 2012
THE team behind the new Pickering Town blog has organised a social media surgery to show people to use the web to its full potential.
Taking place tomorrow (Thursday), 7pm-9pm at the White Swan Inn, it gives individuals, local businesses, voluntary groups and charities the chance to learn how to get their message across.
The Pickering Blog has been set up by Gareth Jenkins, to join blogs covering Helmsley and Pickering.
Gareth put the rapid growth in town websites down to new technologies: He said: "It's so easy now using your phone to take great photos, record videos and audio interviews and these can all be instantly uploaded on to blogging websites. Even people with little technical knowledge can now produce interesting and relevant community news stories."
Gareth said he hoped next week's surgery will be the first of a regular event where 'social media surgeons' can share what they know in a relaxed, informal and non-teccie way.
"Even if you are already blogging, tweeting and sharing online do come and join in the chat – there's always something new to learn and to share," he added.
Marion Buchanan, owner of the White Swan Inn and sponsors of the Pickering Town Blog, said she was delighted to host the evening: "Free technologies such as Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube and blogs can help everyone reach a wider audience via the internet, whatever your interest. I'm beginning to get my head around it all but know there's lots more to learn. I'll definitely be leaving a space in my diary to come along."
For more information phone Gareth Jenkins on 01751 430116 or email email@example.com

I've been doing genealogy since the mid 1970's off and on. I work on it in spurts when I can find time in my busy life.
I will add things to this site I have in my files as I have time. And, am willing to do findings for people in my area when I receive a request. I've been slowly photographing some of the smaller cemeteries in my area and trying to add memorials for all.
You are welcome to use any photos I post here in your own genealogy without having to contact me. I do this to help others. Although, I would like credit given for having taken the photo.
Also, if I've created a memorial for a family member of yours, I will gladly transfer it to you. Or, if you'd prefer, just send me info to add using the "make a suggestion" link from the memorial and I'll make the changes. Please provide me with the source of your info. It's nice to see "all the blanks filled in" on a person, but if the information isn't correct it will be passed on for generations to come incorrectly. Please do what you can to help prevent errors in data.
Feel free to contact me by my email or on my messages below if you have any questions. I enjoy doing this and seeing people successful in finding family members.

Rustemeyer memorials
Hello Patty
The Rustemeyer memorials have been transferred.
I am not related to the Rustemeyer family. Find a grave was a great help in my genealogy research. I wanted to "pay it forward" by documenting a local cemetery.
I am not sure how I got the Rustemeyer names. I may have had a photo of the marker(s) and did not upload it(them) because the quality was not good. I don't know where the markers are located.

RE: Rustemeyer's
Thanks for asking. By all means yes you can use my photo's in your genealogy.
The main reason I do this is so people can have pictures of their family tombstones. Several of my family elders are buried out of state. I know how hard it is finding the time to travel for cemetery pictures and research.
The other reason, for an acurate record of the cemetery.

Russia will not act on dropped power plant

* Atomstroyexport will not seek compensation on Belene
* Gazprom agreed price discount for Bulgaria's gas supply
SOFIA, March 30 (Reuters) - Russian nuclear power plant builder Atomstroyexport will not seek compensation from Bulgaria after Sofia dropped plans for a power station at Belene the company had been contracted to build, the economy minister said.
"We will only pay for what has been built so far," Bulgarian Economy and Energy Minister Delyan Dobrev told a news conference late on Friday, soon after returning from Russia. "Working groups from Atomstroyexport and (Bulgarian state utility) NEK will make all the calculation until the end of April."
Local media reported that Bulgaria should pay Russia some 180 million euros ($240.2 million).
Atomstroyexport, which had been contracted to build two 1,000 megawatt reactors, has repeatedly warned Bulgaria the country will have to pay up to 1 billion euros ($1.33 billion) in damages if the project collapses.
Bulgaria abandoned the project because it failed to attract serious foreign investors in the past three years after Germany's RWE pulled out due to funding concerns.
The Balkan country still plans to pay for one reactor that has already been built and aims to install it at the operational 2,000 MW Kozloduy power plant.
Russia's Gazprom has agreed to cut natural gas prices to Bulgaria by just over 11 percent at a meeting between Dobrev and Gazprom chief executive Alexei Miller.
Bulgaria covers more than 90 percent of its gas needs with imports from the Russian company.
"Their first proposal was for 4.5 percent cut, then they proposed 8.9 percent and then we reached an agreement for 11.1 percent," Dobrev said.
He said the two parties agreed to get this discount as of April 1 and it will be valid over the next nine months.
Last week, Bulgaria's energy watchdog said natural gas prices would rise 12.7 percent - to 699 levs ($476) per 1,000 cubic metres from 620 levs ($422) from April 1 to reflect higher prices of other fuels on international markets.
"Instead we offered full assistance for the South Stream as this is a very important project for Bulgaria," Dobrev added.
Bulgaria has given the South Stream gas pipeline the status of a national project and declared it an object of national importance, providing opportunities for the speedy construction of the project.
The pipeline is intended to carry up to 63 bcm a year of Russian gas across the Black Sea to Greece, from where it will go to central and southern Europe.

No one knows who the Penetrator is or where he lives, expect for two men. But the police blotters of cities across the nation and even as far away as Japan contain evidence of Mark Hardin's handiwork – the death of corrupt hogs at the public table, deaths of men who killed, maimed, and caused suffering among the innocent. The Penetrator is a warrior without uniform or rank, pledged to fight anyone – on either side of the law – who seeks to destroy the American way of life. Follow the Penetrator as he travels from place to place, leaving his personal symbol of retribution, a chipped blue flint arrowhead, on the bodies of society's deadliest enemies.

Men's Tennis Blanks Marquette, 5-0
Feb. 28, 2003 TAMPA, Fla. - The University of Memphis men's tennis team evened its overall record at 3-3 and improved to 2-0 in Conference USA play with a 5-0 victory over Marquette at South Florida, Friday. With the win, the Tigers will advance to play host South Florida, Saturday, at 1:30 p.m. (ET). The Bulls are currently ranked No. 21 in the country, while the Tigers are ranked No. 53 in the latest Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) poll. The Tigers opened the match by winning the doubles point, despite the 20th-ranked doubles team in the country of Ben Stapp and Lee Taylor Walker getting upset 8-6 at No. 1 doubles. It was the first doubles loss of the season for Stapp and Walker, who are now 5-1 at No. 1 doubles. The duo of Joe Schmulian and Alex Bucewicz won their No. 2 match, 8-2, and the all-Aussie duo of Brendan Malarkey and Alex Jago won their No. 3 match, 8-1, to give Memphis the doubles point. The Tigers then nailed down the win with straight set singles victories at No. 3-6. Stapp had split his No.1 singles match with Raj Gill, while Schmulian was up 5-0 in the third set after splitting the first two sets of his No. 2 match, 6-0, 3-6, when rain hit, causing the last two singles matches to not be completed. With a 6-1, 6-3 win at No. 3 singles, sophomore Alex Bucewicz improves to 5-1 on the season in singles. Bucewicz and Schmulian are now 4-2 at No. 2 doubles for the season.
Memphis is one of six C-USA schools competing at the Inner Conference Tournament in Tampa. USF earned the right to host one of the two Inner-Conference tourneys by earning the league's top seed in the C-USA Championship tournament last season. The other tournament is being held this weekend at TCU.
No. 53 Memphis 5, Marquette 0 |

Hmmm, I should find out about that cap after a side mission or two. I have tried The Crucible once...it is brutal.
Guys n Gals, from today October 12th till the 22nd, you need to play the game to earn the Crow Armor, once played it'll show up at a serpent tomb. I did today and I am in Argul's Tomb, it was waiting for me.
There is a second patch coming if you haven't done everything you need to, GET it done, there is a chance that your progress may get reset. I have that question on the Darksiders forum already waiting for an answer.
edit: answer, if your not stuck, or have a broken game, you shouldn't be reset, but still a good idea to back your save up.

anyone doing the DLC? I got the seasons pass cause I ordered it through THQ, I believe I'm about to finish Argul's tomb, took me forever to figure out how to get the lamp over to where it needed to be, I felt like an idiot, then still tried to make things worse by making things harder than they really are.....

A Note from The Virtual WallOn 05 April 1969 India, Kilo, and Lima Companies, 3/1 Marines, were conducting sweeps in Quang Nam Province. At 1120, Lima began a river crossing and found themselves taking fire from a treeline on the opposite side of the river. India 3/1 was in a position to take the enemy in the flank and proceeded to do so - but by 1330 had found the enemy well entrenched and willing to fight. India 3/1 pressed the attack and by 1500 had forced the NVA to withdraw, leaving 72 bodies behind. The assault had been costly, though, with 9 men killed and 32 wounded in the action - and one of the wounded died later in the day. The dead were

in response to dean:
I really get a kick out of the bombastic remarks of the liberals. The one that stands out it truthbold."The election is over and sanity won"
Well great one here is what the Russian Newspaper states about sanity won. This is from the Pravda " Head lines (Obama reelected by illiterate society" Russian news Pravda's Xavier Lerma said that with the re-election of Barack Obama, "The Communists have won in America," but he goes onto say that they failed miserably in Russia as Vladimir Putin was re-elected as President. Lerma writes the with the election of Putin the New World Order is kept out of Russia, while "America continues to repeat the Soviet mistake."
The red, white and blue still flies happily but only in Russia. Russia still has St George defeating the Dragon with the symbol of the cross on its' flag. The ACLU and other atheist groups in America would never allow the US flag with such religious symbols. Lawsuits a plenty against religious freedom and expression in the land of the free. Christianity in the U.S. is under attack as it was during the early period of the Soviet Union when religious symbols were against the law.
Let's give American voters the benefit of the doubt and say it was all voter fraud and not ignorance or stupidity in electing a man who does not even know what to do and refuses help from Russia when there was an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Instead we'll say it's true that the Communists usage of electronic voting was just a plan to manipulate the vote. Soros and his ownership of the company that counts the US votes in Spain helped put their puppPost, residents in all 50 states have filed petitions to secede from the Unites States. We'll say that these Americans are hostages to the Communists in power. How long will their government reign tyranny upon them?
Russia lost its' civil war with the Reds and millions suffered torture and death for almost 75 years under the tyranny of the United Soviet Socialist Republic. Russians survived with a new and stronger faith in God and ever growing Christian Church. The question is how long will the once "Land of the Free" remain the United Socialist States of America? Their suffering has only begun.
So liberals, take the words of warning from those that have felt the so-called benefits of communism. It is a sad testimony to the United States when Russian papers warn you of the consequences of your stupid election of Obama.
Quoting Pravda, eh Dean? Isn't posting propaganda from Pravda the sure sign of a communist sympathizer?

Intel Easy Steps Program for Adult Learners in Bangladesh website of the activity |
Activity description: | In June 2012, Intel Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding with Bangladesh Institute of ICT in Development (BIID) for deployment of the Intel® Easy Steps Program. The Intel® Easy Steps program offers adult learners the opportunity for enhanced social and economic self sufficiency through digital literacy. The Intel Easy Steps materials use adult learning techniques to teach practical and applicable skills to people with minimum computer knowledge. The Intel® Easy Steps program is being carried out by Intel in Asia to address the digital literacy needs of government employees, as well as adults in rural communities, women, unemployed youth, and other underserved populations. A government needs ICT-literate labor for a competitive workforce which would bring about a competitive economy. On the other hand The program includes instructions on running Internet searches, using email, using word processors for creating resumes and other documents, creating spreadsheets, and using multimedia tools to create brochures and posters to promote small businesses. Thus the trainees can develop literacy skills and immediately start applying them into their personal or professional lives. The content is also designed to be suitable for either formal or informal education settings including vocational training centers, employer training, or shared access centers. Similar MOU's have been signed in India, Pakistan and Philippines. In India, the Digital Empowerment Foundation utilized the Intel Easy Steps program to train participants through centers across the country, while the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports Government of India trained youth volunteers through its Youth Club network using this program. In Pakistan, the Government of Sindh Ministry of IT used the program to train government employees, while another semi-government organization Lahore Electricity Supply Company (LESCO) used Intel Easy Steps to increase the digital literacy of its employees. This program promises new horizons for the economy of Bangladesh. Hopefully a successful implementation of this project will bring about a radical reformation in the country helping many to achieve personal goals and seek new heights in the professional arena. |

Is this a poll you did on your own? You know about 'most' gay people's past? Where they came from, how they were raised, and everything they went thru as a child? Soooo I'm gay.

It's not something that was formed from abuse. It's not because of the way we were raised. It's the way we were born!
