Besides processing of the kick, other things to take in to consideration would be the microphone you are using, the position of the microphone, the quality and tuning of the drum and even the playing style of the drummer. It all matters in the end.

I guess the best way I can define what I'm calling "punch" a quick hard response to the kick drum with minimal over ring and if I can pull it off have you ever stood in front of subs and just the air and sound hit you? I understand that other things come into play with that as well (power/ +comp/limiter/gate) but I also wonder if certain cabinets or manufacturers are better for that than others. I just know what I have now or my ill way of utilizing it, is my weak link and I'm trying to get a fuller sound, and what I call "punch" would be great but if not def fuller, at some of the venues we play the kick is buried because I just cant get it loud enough. I am going to try the setup suggestions made this weekend to see if I can gain some, because honestly on the past I have only been able to push them to a certain point and back off a little due to overpowering them. Thanks jrble for your input, what you said on the cabinet design is something to def think about.
Before trying to reinvent the sound with a new sub. Make sure you've played around with microphone placement and have a well tuned kick drum. That could very well make more difference than changing subs, especially if the overall SPL is working for you.
IME, those yammies will not give you that Metallica punchy kick. They are just yesterday's technology, and at the low end of that spectrum. Many of the subs being suggested are middle of the performance mark by today's standards, which is "better" than many of the high end boxes of yesterday. So you could see a MAJOR performance improvement with a sub upgrade.
That said, subs are only part of the system (as is being suggested above).
I will emphisize:the single most effective thing you can do to get a good kick sound is to start by tuning your kick!!!!!
After that, mic and EQ also play a major roll. Careful application of both will maximize your potential within the limitations of your boxes.
So, first thing's first: What are you using for a kick mic? How have you been positioning it?

A D6 is very capable of giving you that modern kick sound.
I would caution you against placing the mic element right at the outer-head boundry. There is a lot of air turbulence at that node. I would suggest either placing the mic element completely in the drum, or just out of it. I've seen a lot of debate on this point, but I prefer the mic to be just inside the front head.
Aim the mic directly at the beater.
To get that punch you need a small bump in the area of 300-400Hz (this will be the body and much of the punch), and another slightly larger bump an order of magnitude higher at around 3-4Khz (this will be the "click" or "impulse" that sets up the punch). The exact EQ location is a function of your drum tuning. IME, if you cannot find the sweet spots in these areas, it is because the head is not properly tuned (find the sweet spot in this area does not mean that the drum is properly tuned).
Experiment with the mic placement and EQ.You should find sweet spots.
This should get you as far as your current boxes will allow.

Dunno what mixer you have but if you're short on subbage one trick on a MixWiz is to engage the channel's HPF and crank up the "low" knob. That gives you a nice boost right at the "punch' frequencies without eating up all your power on pushing air around (or just heating up the voice coils) which can only be felt up close and you need serious subs and power to do effectively anyways. Oh, and try the mic about 4 inches from the beater head and 4 inches away from the beater - I usually don't point it right at the beater unless it's a metal band. I'll move the mic around first before resorting to EQ.
I wonder if some more processing (compression, maxbass) would help in this situation. Also sub placement is crucial to get punch, they should be clustered and wall loaded if possible and not used as speakerstands.

IME, processing has a greater chance of messing things up and muddying the results than improving anything. It is always better to start with the basics and proceed from there. First you cook your meal, then you season to taste :-)
Additionally, coupling your bassboxes can give you up to 6dB more SPL, but kick punch is more than just SPL.
Mutha Goose is giving you some GREAT advice here. The kick HAS TO sound good on it's own, so proper tuning is essential,,,,, but so is technique. I mention technique because earlier, you expressed concern about "over-ring" of the kick. That's something that's usually associated with a cheap-sounding kick, or, improper technique,,,, a hollow,,ringing sound. Is the drummer immediately releasing the beater as he strikes the head? That would contribute to a ringing sound. Strike-and-hold for a fraction of a second would yield a better result. What about the beater itself? Is the beater suited to a "rock" sound vs a "jazz sound"? (beater density) Hopefully, that's not the issue, but it's worth mentioning.
That said, getting a good kick sound is one thing,,,, "feeling" the kick is something else. You can "hear" a good kick sound through tiny computer-speakers, but to "feel" that kick, you need some serious SPL

Audix D6 now had a Cad before, while on the kick insert I do have a dbx 166xl and a 31 band eq which is overkill sense I'm only using certain frequencies. I haven't had a chance to readjust how I gave the eq set since we upgraded mic's. the mic is position just inside the the front head through the hole, the drummer also bought a plastic ring that firs inserts onto the hole that is suppose to gain us a little. I will mess with the eq settings next week when we have practice again, but still feel like maybe something that has more power capacity would help with just getting it where it can be heard, but I agree that the "sound" needs to be honed. I've been trying to talk the drummer into getting a sure beta 91 to sit inside the drums and run s second channel into the mains. Which this I'm sure that I should have mentioned before, he wont let me put him through the mains now, so the subs for kick is all I have. Oh he does use good heads though.
Why the 31 band graphic EQ? What are you doing with the channel strip EQ? In an earlier post in this thread IIRC you mentioned using the low cut on the amp, and cutting on the graphic. I'd venture a guess that the graphic isn't set in a way that is helping you achieve the sound you are looking for. Are you boosting something with your channel EQ only to be cutting an overlapping freq with the graphic? Are you boosting or cutting a lot of frequency bands right next to eachother on the graphic that could be causing phasing issues. Take the graphic out of the chain first and see if anything improves.
What are you using the 166XL for? Compressing? Gating? Maybe to get rid of some of the ring you can use the gate on that 166 so it cuts off the ringing. Are you hitting the compressor hard and fast and squashing the transient? Are you hitting the limiter? Where is the output gain set?
How does it sound when you take everything out of the insert? I'd go back to basics and start with the dry mic signal, then EQ using the channel strip to taste, then if it needs it add the compressor/gate, and leave out the graphic EQ. Starting over from scratch with the source (kick drum tuning and mic placement as others have mentioned), and then setting proper gain structure, then setting your channel EQ and then if necessary insert the Dynamics processing. Doing this first is a lot less expensive then getting new subs, and may uncover why you aren't getting the sound you're looking for with the subs you currently have. If you don't do this, you could end up paying for new subs that still don't solve the problem. When troubleshooting, start at the beginning. That's why when ever you call tech support for a product the first thing they ask you is, "is the unit plugged in and turned on?" You might think when they ask that, that the tech must think you're a moron, but you'd be surprised how many Tech Support calls end with that single question. When I get calls at 8am on a Saturday from the local rec center where I'm the in house tech guy asking, why can't we hear the iPod through the PA, my first question is always, is the mixer turned on, followed by, are the speakers turned on, followed by is the iPod cable plugged in. 95% of the time the phone call ends with one of those 3 questions, the other 5% are fixed by explaining how to locate and disengage the mute button for the iPod channel, or how to raise the fader(s). Think Horses not Zebras.
I am not a fan of the D6, but as others have said it is a respected and capable mic for kick drum. I use a Beta 52 and a Beta 91 usually, and if I can only use one I go with the 52. It would be my recommendation that you not spend the money on getting a Beta 91 until you can reasonably get consistently good sound from your current set up. Having more tools doesn't make you a better craftsman, but having the skills and knowledge to properly use the tools you have does.

BAY SCALLOP, SHRIMP, AND AHI TUNA CEVICHE IN TORTILLA CUPS Recipe
- Peanut Oil, for frying
- 4 4 4small, thin corn tortillas (4-6 for 6 servings), each about 8 inches in diameter
- 1/2 0.5 0.5pound POUNDWeightfresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 0.5 0.5pound POUNDWeightfresh baby bay scallops, side muscles removed
- 1/2 0.5 0.5pound POUNDWeightahi tuna fillet, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 1/4 0.25 0.25cup CUP_USVolumeextra-virgin olive oil
- 3 3 3tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumefresh lime juice (3-4 for 6 servings)
- 6 6 6tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumechopped fresh cilantro, plus 6 sprigs for garnish
- 1/2 0.5 0.5medium red onion, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1 1 1medium ripe tomato, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- In a large, heavy saucepan or a deep-fryer, heat 5 to 6 inches of oil to 375�F. One at a time, fry the tortillas in the hot oil until they are soft, about 10 seconds, immediately transferring each tortilla to paper towels to drain. Reserve, covered, in a warm spot. Heat wire potato nest baskets by dipping it in the hot oil for several seconds. Carefully fit a softened tortilla into the bottom basket and place the smaller basket on top to shape the tortilla into a cup. Then immerse the tortilla enclosed in the baskets into the hot oil and cook until the tortilla is crispy and golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove the tortilla cup from the basket and invert on paper towels to drain. Repeat the procedure with the other tortillas. (If you don't have a potato nest basket, you can also lay the tortillas 1 by 1 on the surface of the hot oil, then immediately, carefully push the center to the bottom with a small, empty, clean tin can, thus creating a freeform cup. Be sure to use tongs and heat resistant gloves to protect your hands.)
- Cut the shrimp into pieces the same size as the bay scallops. Refrigerate the shrimp, ahi, and scallops in separate bowls.
- In a nonreactive mixing bowl, stir together the olive oil, lime juice, cilantro, red onion, and tomato. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Stir the seafood into this mixture, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 45 minutes.
Place the tortilla cups on individual serving plates. Divide the ceviche among the cups and garnish each serving with sprigs of cilantro. Serve immediately.
Note: Serves 4 to 6
It always surprises me when someone refers to ceviche as a "raw" seafood dish. Sure, you don't cook the fish in the usual sense of the word, meaning applying heat to it. But the acidity of the citrus-juice marinade has the exact same effect on the seafood that cooking would, turning the meat opaque and firm as if it had been gently poached and then chilled. The result is a very refreshing, light appetizer perfect for a hot summer day. The crisp tortilla cups in which I serve the scallop, shrimp and ahi tuna ceviche in this recipe make a beautiful, edible presentation that emphasizes the dish's Mexican roots. To shape the cups, use wire deep-frying baskets normally used for forming potato nests, available in well-stocked kitchen stores.

Rosler: Saunders' contribution key to Brentford's Bristol triumph
9:54am Wednesday 23rd October 2013 in Sport By Simon Webster
Lively: Brentford midfielder Sam Saunders was a livewire in wins over Colchester United, pictured above, and Bristol City this week
Boss Uwe Rosler has got behind misfiring striker Will Grigg pledging to get the former Walsall hotshot through his Brentford barren spell.
The 22-year-old started Tuesday night's 2-1 win at Bristol City, but was replaced by substitute Marcello Trotta just nine minutes into the second half.
Grigg has not found the net for his new club in eight appearances since bagging a brace in a 2-0 win over Sheffield United in August.
but Rosler has backed the Northern Ireland international to come good in the same way fellow front man Clayton Donaldson did after a tricky start to his Bees career.
"Will Grigg is a great player who is a bit low on confidence at the moment. But I'll back him and get him through this," said the Griffin Park chief.
"Remember, Clayton Donaldson had a similar spell in his first season. He went many games without scoring. So it is important he works hard in training and comes through this."
Brentford followed up Saturday's 3-1 home triumph over Colchester United by making it back-to-back league wins at Ashton Gate.
In truth it was a largely forgettable game as the home side, without a win in 21 matches, struggled against an equally inept Bees side for much of the match.
Substitute Sam Saunders made the difference when he came on, first scoring then setting up the second for Donaldson from a corner to give Brentford back to back league wins.
Bristol City enjoyed a couple of good chances during the opening quarter when first Richard Lee's poor clearance was picked up by Jay Emmanuel-Thomas, whose shot cannoned off Tony Craig for a corner.
Minutes later Nicky Shorey crossed from the left and Bobby Reid shot just over the bar from the edge of the box.
Kadeem Harris injected some energy into Brentford's efforts when he picked up the ball and burst through midfield, before picking out Alan McCormack, who cut inside and fired over the bar.
Harris looked purposeful again when he broke down the left and his cross to the back post was headed wide from five yards out by Will Grigg.
Early in the second half George Saville did well to beat three defenders to the left of the box and find substitute Marello Trotta, whose shot was blocked before Clayton Donaldson's follow up effort suffered the same fate.
On the hour mark McCormack sent in a dangerous cross from wide on the right, which Adam Forshaw headed wide.
Saunders then made a dramatic impact, when his deflected 20 yard shot within five minutes of coming on put the Bees ahead.
Shortly after Trotta's shot across goal from the right side of the box was deflected behind and from Saunders' corner on the left Donaldson found the back of the net with a low shot from six yards out.
And ex-Dagenham & Redbridge star Saunders' man of the match contribution was not lost on his manager.
"Sam is a very important player. That's why we gave him a new two year contract," added Rosler.
"He is reaching the same form from last season where he impacted our games very often, from the bench or at times from the start. I'm very happy with his contribution."
The Robins recorded a late goal when Emmanuel-Thomas' cross from the left was knocked in from close range by substitute Marlon Harewood.
Brentford: Lee, McCormack, Dean, Craig, Bidwell; Douglas, Forshaw, Saville; Donaldson, Grigg (sub Trotta 54), Harris (sub Saunders 74)
Subs (not used): O'Brien, Logan, Diagouraga, El Alagui, Taylor
Attendance: 10,639 (512 Bees)

Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Phoenix race turned on pit road
Sunday Notebook: Even though he's the reigning Sprint Cup champion, Brad Keselowski gets a special thrill beating five-time champ Jimmie Johnson at anything.By: By Reid Spencer, NASCAR Wire Service, Superior Telegram
AVONDALE, Ariz. — Getting off pit road first under caution on Lap 238 made all the difference in Sunday's Subway Fresh Fit 500, the way both Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Carl Edwards saw it.
Edwards was first out of the pits and went on to win the race. Earnhardt's No. 88 Chevrolet was second off pit road and faded to fifth at the finish.
When David Gilliland blew a tire and hit the wall on Lap 236—the sixth blown right front tire of the race—Earnhardt led the field to pit road for tires and fuel two laps later. He and Edwards rolled down pit road side by side, but Earnhardt had to check up to avoid hitting the Ford of Casey Mears, which was blocking his progress.
"Well, I hate to be frustrated at Phoenix, but I think we are," Earnhardt said. "We had a real good car. We feel like we could have finished better than fifth, maybe won the race. Just didn't get the breaks on pit road. We kind of got boxed in. ...
"I think we could have beat him off pit road, but somebody (Mears) was pulling in their stall in front of us, and I just had to lift and give the spot to the No. 99 (Edwards). That was the race, in my opinion, and we almost had it won right there."
Edwards had a similar view of the situation.
"First of all, I think we came onto pit road fourth, something like that," Edwards said. "We came out first. I was in front of Dale. He must have had the timing lines figured out really well because I was at the max speed I could go, and he shot up there, and I thought, 'Man, I can't go any faster; I'm going to get a penalty.'
"Then Casey was up there, and I thought, I'm not exactly sure how this is going to work out, and then he turned left and Dale could have run me up into the wall and spun Casey out. I could tell he thought about it. I mean, I think he did because there was that little pause, and I thought, he's going to do it.
"And then he stood on the brakes and kept from tearing all the cars up. That had to be very difficult for him, because I think we all knew right then that was the...that could be the race."
Edwards sped away at the restart on Lap 243 and never looked back, leading the final 78 laps.
On the final lap—the fourth overtime circuit—of Sunday's race, Denny Hamlin saw an opportunity to take advantage of a second-place battle between Jimmie Johnson and Brad Keselowski.
At the exit of Turn 2, Hamlin darted down to the apron, cutting across the unique dogleg on the backstretch, as Johnson and Keselowski were battling side by side. Hamlin returned to the banking at the entry to Turn 3.
Though Johnson got back past Hamlin before the finish, Hamlin held off Keselowski for third and, as he put it, "overachieved" at Phoenix.
"I wasn't concerned too much, because as far down as I was, I was committed," Hamlin said of the move that gained him a position. "There was nothing I was going to do that was going to back out. I just hoped that I would have slid in front of the 48 (Johnson), but then you risk getting punted and spun and your whole day you worked everything for gets taken away in a corner.
"I held my line and really thought I did the right thing to give those guys still an opportunity to pass me back, and obviously one of them did."
Even though he's the reigning Sprint Cup champion, Brad Keselowski gets a special thrill beating five-time champ Jimmie Johnson at anything.
Johnson doesn't mind being viewed as the standard that others seek to top. He considers it a sign of respect.
"I'm well aware that with the success that I've had over the last eight or 10 years that there's a lot of bull's eyes on me," Johnson said, then followed with a quip. "I'm kind of afraid to sleep at night sometimes.
"I know those guys are all gunning for me, and that's a huge honor, it really is, to have the garage and then the reigning champion thinking that way about me."

Ever since I started having sex I get urinary tract infections very frequently. Does that mean there could be something else wrong? - Mandy*
If you have burning or pain on urination, it could be a number of things. One possibility is a urinary tract infection (UTI), but other possibilities include a sexually transmitted disease (STD), such as chlamydia, or just chemical irritation from a spermicide. It is difficult to tell the difference without seeing a doctor or nurse practitioner.
Urinary tract infections tend to be more common in girls who have sex. Often, UTIs are the result of bacteria entering the urethra.
Following these steps will help you to decrease the chance of developing UTIs:
STDs can have symptoms similar to those of a UTI. Depending on the organism causing it (and how your body reacts), you could have burning, vaginal discharge, abdominal pain, irregular bleeding, or other signs.
Many times, though, STDs have few symptoms, which is why it is important for anyone who has had sex to be tested. And always use condoms with any type of sex to help prevent STDs.
In any case, the best thing to do is get checked out ASAP by a doctor or nurse practitioner who can look for the reason you're having symptoms. It's really important to get the right diagnosis and treatment!

U.S. Rep. Jim Himes is using an online survey to ask constituents what they think about what to do in Syria, and he's hosting a 2:30 p.m. Sunday public meeting on the topic at Darien Library.
In a questionnaire Himes recently emailed to constituents (and has online), he asks:
"Please indicate which statement below best represents your point of view:
- I agree with the President that Congress should approve a limited military strike against the Syrian regime in response to its use of chemical weapons, not involving "boots on the ground".
- I oppose the President's proposal and believe we should not get militarily involved in Syria in any way.
- I believe a more robust military response than the President envisions is appropriate.
- I don't feel I have enough information to make a decision.
Other (Please reply to this email with your response)
"If you would like to attend, please RSVP here (RSVPing is not required but will help ensure we have enough space for everyone)," Himes wrote in the email. "Please share your thoughts with me in this survey and in person on Sunday."
Darien Library is located at 1441 Post Rd., Darien, just west (or "south") of Exit 11 (turn right from the northbound Exit 11 ramp, or turn left from the southbound Exit 11 ramp; the library is on the right, before the cemetery).
What Himes wrote to constituents
Here's the rest of what Himes wrote in his letter to constituents:
The United States makes few more consequential decisions than when and where to use military force. I was pleased that the President chose to seek Congressional approval for a strike in Syria; I have long felt that the decision to use military power needs to migrate back to the Congress, where the Constitution clearly placed it.
However, soon I will have a tough vote to take, and I need to know where you stand. As your Representative, the most important factor in my votes is your opinion.
You should know that I traveled to Washington on Sunday to attend a classified briefing on the use of chemical weapons on civilians in Syria and the President's proposed response. The intelligence community has determined with high confidence that the Assad regime undertook this attack. Having reviewed the evidence, I believe that the support for that conclusion is strong, if not watertight. Given what led to the US invasion of Iraq, I want to learn more.
In response, the President believes that a limited, no boots-on-the-ground military strike is the appropriate response. He has asked Congress to pass an authorization for the use of military force. You can read the full text of the proposed resolution (which may change in the legislative process) here.
Himes on Thursday posted this statement about Syria on his office's website.

Great article. Here is an article on some of the most interesting things to see in NYC right now:
I just found out I got my global internships I applied for a few weeks ago! I was so ecstatic to hear about this great news! If any of you out there has applied and not received an opportunity yet, don't give up!
"This doesn't sound like a list compiled by Brooklyn natives"
And yet it was! So...
"what the fuck is south brooklyn."
"[Who] Cares about 'funky' boutiques and bad art."
The readers of this magazine!
"I live in the decidedly non-hip world of bay ridge, which i adore from the center of my soul"
me too!
Given all the cranky comments here, I marvel that anyone bothers to write anything at all anymore! Yeah, it's totally a hipster point of view (I live in the decidedly non-hip world of bay ridge, which i adore from the center of my soul) and it could benefit from a little more diversity awareness (fyi - I live in the non-hip bay ridge with my beautiful Jamaican husband and our son - one of probably two multi-racial families out here), but I thought it was a FUN read! Chill out, people, and contribute to the conversation by writing your own articles ~ unless you're afraid of the haters, of course. :-)
I've noticed this magazine only really covers the 'cool' parts of Brooklyn, but I'm sorry - being born and raised in Coney Island, you are missing out on entire neighborhoods filled with real diversity and culture.
Sheepshead Bay.
Brighton Beach.
Owl's Head.
Vinaegar (sp?) Hill
ZERO 'HIPSTER' QUOTIENT. ASSUMING YOU WANT THE REAL BROOKLYN, or what's left of it.
Cares about 'funky' boutiques and bad art.
@Brooklyn Black Girl
I was bout to say the same thing. I'd probably add "the 13 Most Livable Neighborhoods in Brooklyn for white hipsters or gentrifiers", which the editors of this list are -- white and/or hipsters and/or gentrifiers and or trustfunders...
And as wmsgreggs1431 said, not compiled by Brooklyn natives, or New York City natives at all...
Solid anecdote about your friend from the Soviet Union.
what the fuck is south brooklyn. it has the carroll gardens park and smith st...uhhh isn't that just like the BLOCK or so in between carroll gardens and boerum hill? bonus points for including ditmas though!
This doesn't sound like a list compiled by Brooklyn natives.
This doesn't sound like a list compiled by Brooklyn natives
This is idiotic
This list seems slightly bias!!!!
"South Brooklyn" is a common historical term; we didn't make it up.
Also, many of these neighborhoods have sizable populations of people of color, including the number-one neighborhood.
I love and live in red hook. LOVE RED HOOK. but there is so much crime and shooting and projects and drugs and gangs here, it would be remiss of me to point out what a disservice this article is doing by by saying it's one of the 'most livable neighborhoods in brooklyn' it's really not. nice place to visit, go to ikea and then get a taco and then go back to somewhere even marginally safer. I'm not even exagerrating, a cop just shot and killed someone on the corner I walk across every day, this past thursday night..a guy soliciting an undercover prostitute. this comment will probably be removed, so all I'm saying is...please be more 'accurate' with your 'lists'.
Fort Greene and Clinton Hill have always been great. Take a look at Nelson George's film "Brooklyn Boheme"! Cool has been here not the "new" hipsters.
Why would you not factor safety/crime into this list?
There are, like 15 neighborhoods further south than BoCoCa (sorry for the acronym)- how is that considered South Brooklyn? Poor choice.
I guess the title should really have been "Ranking the 13 Most Livable Neighborhoods for White Folks in Brooklyn," right? You could have saved me the bother of reading this...

Odd Links on Internet Explorer
If you are getting odd links to commercial sites in your daily Good Word and you are using Internet Explorer, these are not coming from yours truly. Someone at Microsoft got the bright idea of selling words on any page their browser displays to advertisers. I recommend using Google's Chrome or Mozilla's Firefox if you find them annoying. In fact, we at alphaDictionary recommend these two browsers for other reasons, as well.

Down with AIEEE! I don't use it myself, but I keep getting stuff dumped in there. Most recently, 33 megabytes of temporary Internet files. I repeat, I don't use the program. Where did they come from and how did they get there? I'll never know. Firefox is my choice of weapon for dealing with the Internot.

The data set currently contains ice velocity data for the winter of 2000-2001 and 2005-2006, 2006-2007, and 2007-2008 acquired from RADARSAT-1 InSAR data from the Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF), and a 2008-2009 mosaic derived from the Advanced Land Observation Satelitte (ALOS) and TerraSAR-X data. Data are available via FTP, in 4-byte big-endian Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) floating point and GeoTIFF (.tif) formats. Note: Although this data set has been screened for anomalously large errors, at this stage they are Version 1 products and some significant errors may persist (>20 m/yr). In addition, these data are considered provisional pending a review by the MEaSUREs program. Once the data have been reviewed, this statement will be removed.

Last night dance fans and fashion followers gathered at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center for the New York City Ballet's annual fall gala. The guest of honor: Valentino Garavani, who designed costumes for the performers. The color to be caught wearing: red, of course. In an homage to the designer's signature shade, the N.Y.C.B. master in chief, Peter Martins, created a program for the evening that included, among new works, George Balanchine's "Rubies." Snapping pics for their Instagram and Twitter feeds were the tech-savvy power couple Barry Diller and Diane von Furstenberg, and also Daphne Guinness (wearing a metal neck collar), the N.Y.C.B. board member Pamela Joyner, Tamara Mellon, Tory Burch, Ralph Rucci and Sarah Jessica Parker. With everyone swanning inside, T asked partygoers outside to tell us which dance move they dream of doing:
Dennis Basso, designer, and Martha Stewart, founder, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia:
Martha Stewart: "A triple pirouette."
Dennis Basso: "And I want to catch Martha doing it."
Amy Sedaris, actress and author: "I would do the sets. I love dancing, but I'm excited to see the sets." Read more…

Senate Passes Patent Reform Bill (H.R. 1249) — What it means for Seattle Businesses
$88.5 Million Lawsuit Over an Employee Contract???
So now that we know we need a specific expression, what specific expression according to Mattel was infringed? Mattel claimed their copyrights in Bryant's sketches were infringed. They claimed they had exclusive rights to making derivative works (creating substantially similar looking dolls based on the sketches) and that MGA infringed upon those rights by creating and selling the Bratz line of dolls.
The question then is, would an ordinary and reasonable observer consider the copyrighted sketches and the Bratz doll substantially similar (or virtually identical)? If the answer is yes, then the challenged work is infringing.

Three Dewey Alums Launch New FirmPractices focus on insurance fraud and complex litigationOne positive outcome from the implosion of Dewey & LeBoeuf has been the creation of a new professional alliance among three former Dewey lawyers. Making use of their expertise in large litigation cases, Jim Reardon, Kathy Scanlon and Pete Vodola have formed a specialized financial product and commercial litigation law firm based in West Hartford, Conn. 2012-12-03 12:00:00 AM The implosion of Dewey & LeBoeuf has rocked all corners of the legal world. But there is at least one positive result -- a new professional alliance among lawyers who once worked in the national firm's former Hartford, Conn., office. The specialized financial product and commercial litigation law firm is based in West Hartford, launched by three attorneys who met while working more than 15 years ago in Hartford at what was then known as LeBoeuf, Lamb, Green & MacRae. The attorneys, Jim Reardon, Kathy Scanlon and Pete Vodola, all worked together representing insurance companies and other corporate clients. Just before the firm's 2007 merger with Dewey Ballantine, which created Dewey & LeBoeuf, Scanlon and Vodola left to work for Pullman & Comley and other Connecticut firms in insurance defense and commercial litigation practices. Reardon moved to Dewey & LeBoeuf's New York office, where he stayed until the bottom fell out earlier this year. On the up side, Reardon says he gained a big-firm perspective. "I was working for one of the largest litigation firms in the country, on a team of 20 lawyers, and that has really helped me manage large cases," Reardon said. "We can go toe-to-toe with any firm," he said of his new firm, known as Reardon Scanlon Vodola. One thing the trio learned from their big-firm experience was how to divide the work up but still keep everyone in the loop. "That way we can be responsive to clients' changing needs," Reardon said. His former colleagues, Vodola and Scanlon, have been working together ever since their early days in Hartford. "We have always worked well together," Scanlon explained. They saw Reardon's recent departure from Dewey & LeBoeuf as an opportunity to combine their comfort working on large litigation cases. Reardon "is an extremely tenacious and hard-driving litigator," Vodola said. While they each work in specialized areas that for the most part typically involve protecting the interests of insurance companies, the firm's model is what they call flat. "In other words," Vodola said, "we are involved in each other's work." Reardon's claim to fame is a 1999 case involving a man who faked his own death and tried to collect a $7 million insurance policy. While at Dewey & LeBoeuf, Reardon led an investigative forensic fraud case on behalf of the insurer that revealed Madison Rutherford set up an elaborate ruse to collect the money. "He ran off to Mexico and we proved it," Reardon said. Because of strange circumstances of the lawsuit, which was resolved in his client's favor, Reardon was invited to appear on 60 Minutes. In that interview, Reardon was asked to describe how Rutherford went about faking his death. "Our understanding is he drove from the hotel that he was staying in Monterrey to the side of the road in Mexico," Reardon said on the show. "He took gasoline with him. He doused the vehicle in gasoline. And he rode away in a bicycle." Other similar cases of fraudulent death claims have sent him to Israel and Europe. While Reardon gets more involved in the fraud detection side of the practice, Scanlon and Vodola handle a lot of litigation involving claims against companies that sell insurance payouts to secondary markets. For example, when a plaintiff wins a lawsuit settlement that calls for money to be paid in installments by an insurance company, sometimes companies -- known as structured settlement buyers -- offer to buy the rights to receive those payments. The plaintiffs often accept considerably less money than the original settlement called for, but they benefit from receiving an immediate lump sum. In turn, the structured settlement buyers bundle multiple settlements and sell them to investors, who ultimately collect the installment payments. Unlike the stock market, where there is considerable risk, the investors are guaranteed steady returns. "Sometimes they create problems for the insurance companies that are responsible for them," Vodola said. "For instance, sometimes the person who sells the settlement rights realizes he didn't get such a good deal. So they sue the company that bought it and then they decide to sue the insurance company, too." Another area of insurance defense the firm is handling is in the area of stranger-originated life insurance policies. If the insurance companies can prove that a person improperly took out a life insurance policy on someone they didn't know, the insurance company doesn't have to pay on the death. "We've been in court on those cases all across the country," Vodola said. While the three law partners share a big-law firm perspective gained from their time at Dewey & LeBoeuf, the use of technology has allowed them to handle the work of a much larger firm with relative ease. "Between e-filing, which makes court visits relatively infrequent, and e-discovery, we're really able to tackle even the most formidable of document-intensive cases," Scanlon said. Another way the small firm can handle cases that would in the past "have taken 10 attorneys" is through the use of outsourced document review firms, said Scanlon. "We use outsourcing to our advantage," she said. Even though the firm was formed only two months ago, the partners already have plans to expand. "Right now, we're looking at hiring another lawyer very soon," Reardon said. |

The Imperial, The Luxury Car That Never Was
Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos
Gas prices and the worldwide fuel situation are now officially responsible for the decision Chrysler just made to put the kabosh on plans for the new Imperial. The Imperial concept was first introduced last year at the Detroit Auto Show, and if built the Imperial would have fallen into the Chrysler line up at the very top -- above the 300C. But there will now be no Imperial, with Chrysler mentioning that the increasing costs for fuel and the ever tightening fuel economy standards would make production of the Imperial "irresponsible" at this time.

Photography visually educates us about things we may otherwise not know, due to our own proximity, and sense of shelter. Photographs may invoke compassion, understanding, and knowledge about things outside our daily lives. I think Dorothea Lange was good at creating awareness and invoking compassion, due not only to her talent, but also her passion. "Pick a theme and work it to exhaustion...the subject must be something you truly love or truly hate. - Dorothea Lange

BREAKING NEWS: House Approves Budget Agreement, 332-94
Washington, DC Wednesday, February 27, 2013
Federal Aviation Administrator Michael Huerta testifies at an oversight hearing on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Modernization and Reform Act.
The House Transportation and Infrastructure Aviation Subcommittee examines the status of the implementation of the law and its impact on the aviation industry.
The act was signed into law in February of 2012 and focuses on reforming federal aviation programs and modernizing the U.S. aviation system by improving safety, enhancing passenger service, and strengthening accountability for the development of a Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen).
Administrator Huerta also addresses the potential impact of automatic budget cuts that begin taking effect Friday. The sequester, as it's known, could lead to air traffic controller layoffs, resulting in delays at the nation's airports.
Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ) chairs the committee.

Comments about Real Flame Mt Vernon Gel Fuel Fireplace in Dark Walnut:
I love this fireplace. The dark color walnut is rich and the size is just perfect. It looks absolutely fabulous in my living room. The only thing that was a challenge was tightening some of the pieces with wood glue. Although it says you should have two people, I was able to put this together alone in about an hour and half.
