My wife and I love the show, but the only problem with the fellow's strategies is with overpricing the neighborhoods. If a property market value is $500,000 and they spend $125,000 on renovations(just because the homeowners have a $625,000 budget), they may have overbuilt the neighborhood and will be upside down with regard to what the property will bring later. Could they address this issue on the shows? | |||
My favorite part of the show is the Before/Jonathan's Design/After pictures. In particular, I like to see the design versus the actual results. I always record the shows so I can fast forward through the parts I don't care about and pause the parts I want a closer look at. As with ALL HGTV's programming, the editors don't ever allow more than one whole second per shot, so it's very difficult to try to absorb everything. Hence the need for recording-- so I can pause and fast forward. | ||||

Food & Drink RSS Feed
Some simply exquisite dishes, sweet and savoury, created by chef Tim McDougall at the Celtic Manor
3:40pm Friday 4th May 2012 in Food & Drink By Fiona Phillips
MY abiding memory of rhubarb is school dinner platefuls of gloopy, stringy grey-green mush – served with lumpy custard.
Is it any wonder that I have never touched the stuff since – or at least not until I tasted some simply exquisite dishes, sweet and savoury, created by chef Tim McDougall at the Celtic Manor resort just down the A40.
Tim served up pork tenderloin with rhubarb and black pudding; clotted cream rice pudding with rhubarb compote and ham hock terrine with rhubarb jelly, while we were also treated to a rhubarb fizz cocktail.
And for those who weren't convinced by the potential of rhubarb the truly inspirational Tim and his kitchen colleagues also rustled up a watercress veloute with goat's cheese quenelles, poussin with broad beans and peas and sewin in beurre blanc with sorrel.
All simple dishes to cook, concentrating not on fancy culinary techniques, but on simple natural flavours and easy to source ingredients.
Tim is a natural instructor, full of hints and tips about getting that fine dining experience in the comfort of your own kitchen – and nothing he demonstrated was beyond any competent home cook.
And Tim's tips for avoiding the gloop? Gently poach thin strips of rhubarb in water and a little wine. Don't overcook it – peel most of it but make sure you leave some skin on to maintain a nice pink colour. Alternatively air dry thin strips in a very low oven and use to add texture to food.
Rhubarb Fizz Cocktail 1½ shots rhubarb syrup* 2 shots white rum 1 lemon cut into wedges Handful of basil leaves Ginger ale Ice Place lemon wedges in a cocktail shaker with the rhubarb syrup, ice and basil leaves and muddle together until lemon releases its juice. Add the rum and ice and shake. Strain and top up with ginger ale.
* For rhubarb syrup mix 2 cups sliced rhubarb; 1 cup water, 1 cup demerera sugar. Cook over a medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to the boil then simmer until rhubarb is completely softened.
Continue to cook until reduced.
Strain and store in a sterilized screw top jar. It will last for at least two weeks.

Thanks for this great script. The idea of commercials is inspired. Imean - I love certain genres but i really need a break every "n" tracks . There's only so much blues harmonica i can listen to in one day.
Some of my Library filters are based on a number of related genres - say Blues, R&B, Soul etc. It took me a little while to figure out that for this type of filter when i select A Library filter in your Options I have to deselect Stay in the "Same Genre" otherwise this seems to override the Library Filter - "Limit Selections to a specific filter"
Look forward to future enhancements

Milton, MA Home Prices Continue to Increase
Touted countless times as one of the most desirable towns to live in Massachusetts, Milton has always been a top location for prospective home buyers. Much like the hot real estate market statewide Milton has also seen a nice bounce recently. Today we're looking at the single family home market in Boston's neighbor to the South.
Milton's single family market has had a strong past 3 months with a total of 83 closed transactions and an average sale price on these closings of $593,438. The 83 closings represent an increase of only 1 over the previous 3 month period while the $593,438 average sale price is up an astonishing $23,145 over the prior 3 months. This price increase represents a 4.1% jump in just one quarter's time.
Average days on market have been cut to 46 days over the last 3 months, down from 88 days in the previous period. This huge decrease is partially attributable to older listings finally finding buyers as inventory dwindled in late spring and early summer, resulting in sales of homes which were originally listed months ago. In addition to the lower inventory, the increase in sales of older listings over the summer is also due to the group of buyers whose main objective was to close on a home before the beginning of the school year finally buying. As the summer winds down each year we begin to see this group of buyers become more amendable to purchasing homes that do not exactly fit their wishlist or need work. With the school year now upon us we see an inventory of only 64 single family homes in Milton, down from 77 on July 1st. In addition to this active inventory there is also a total of 42 listings with accepted offers, which are waiting to close.
Our final statistic today is Milton's list-to-sale ratio, which since July sits at a healthy 98%. This number has remained stagnant from the prior period as the market remains active and home's sell quickly and for top dollar. To view the home's currently available for sale in Milton click here.

Mark Christopher wrote and directed this look back at the Disco Era when the popular Studio 54 was at its apogee in the late '70s. With obvious comparisons to Paul Thomas Anderson's Boogie Nights (1997) and Whit Stillman's The Last Days of Disco (1998), the story introduces working-class 19-year-old Irish-American Shane O'Shea (Ryan Phillippe), who has lived with his father and siblings since the death of his mother when he was 12. Shane quickly rises from busboy to bartender at Studio 54, co-owned and managed in a paternal manner by entrepreneur Steve Rubell (Mike Myers). Busboy Greg Randazzo (Breckin Meyer) and Greg's wife, Anita (Salma Hayek), the club's coat check girl, become Shane's new friends, and he encounters the possibility of romance with soap star Julie Black (Neve Campbell). The story spans the summer of 1979 until the decline of Studio 54 a year later with IRS investigations, followed by the arrest and jailing of Rubell. Costumes by Ellen Lutter capture the glitter and glam-glitz of the period. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

John Dahl directed this exploration of New York private clubs devoted to high-stakes poker, with first-person narration from the film's central figure, law student Mike McDermott (Matt Damon), who loses his entire savings to Russian club owner Teddy KGB (John Malkovich). Mike then turns away from cards, devoting his attentions to his law studies and his live-in girlfriend Jo (Gretchen Mol), who's concerned when Mike's former gambling buddy Worm (Edward Norton) is released from prison. She has good reason to worry, since it takes Worm only a matter of minutes to draw Mike back into poker action. When she learns Mike has returned to the poker clubs, she moves out, and Mike begins to lose interest in his studies. Worm has a pre-prison debt, and the threatening Grama (Michael Rispoli) wants the money. Mike not only indulges the irresponsible Worm, he gets involved in Worm's debts. When Grama demands $15,000 on a five-day deadline, the two buddies go into high gear with a non-stop, no-sleep gambling binge that spirals downward toward an ultimate confrontation with Teddy KGB. Darkened club interiors and New York nights are captured by the cinematography of Jean Yves Escoffier, who moved from French films (the 1991 Les Amants du Pont Neuf) to American movies with the reflective surfaces of Excess Baggage (1997) and the patina of pathos found in Harmony Korine's experimental Gummo (1997). Shown at the 1998 Venice Film Festival and the 1998 Montreal Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

John Irving scripted this screen adaptation of his 1985 novel. Set during World War II, The Cider House Rules concerns Homer Wells (Tobey Maguire), an orphan who spent most of his childhood at the St. Cloud Orphanage in rural Maine, where he grew up under the strong but affectionate care of Dr. Wilbur Larch (Michael Caine). Larch has passed along his medical education to Homer, and the young man helps the doctor care for abandoned children and the newborn babies of unwed mothers; however, Homer refuses to assist Larch with the illegal abortions that he performs on the side; Homer has moral objections to abortion, while Larch believes in the rights of the individual and sees it as his duty to keep women in need away from dangerous incompetents. Wally Worthington (Paul Rudd), an air-force pilot, brings his girlfriend Candy (Charlize Theron) to St. Cloud for an abortion, and Homer decides to go with them when they leave, hoping to see the world; however, the three end up going no further than the state line, where Wally's mother (Kate Nelligan) runs an apple orchard and cider mill, and Candy's family traps lobsters. When Wally ships off to battle, Homer grows closer to Candy, and the two fall in love. But their idyllic life at the cider mill is interrupted when Rose Rose (Erykah Badu), a field worker at the orchard, becomes pregnant and her father, cider-house foreman Mr. Rose (Delroy Lindo), turns out to be the father of her unborn child. This news coupled with the death of Dr. Larch, forces Homer to take a long look at both his moral principles and his future. Rapper Heavy D appears in the supporting cast as Peaches. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This Big Apple-based romantic comedy charts the tumultuous relationship between liberal arts student and budding chef Al (Freddie Prinze Jr.) and his first girlfriend, Imogen (Julia Stiles), a self-possessed freshman who wants to become an artist. After meeting in a bar, the pair jump into a giddy, passionate affair that's grown-up enough to include face time between the young lovers and Al's DJ mom and TV-chef dad (Henry Winkler). After a summer abroad, however, Imogen feels like the relationship is robbing her of her youth, and the couple must struggle with romantic and domestic growing pains. Meanwhile, their wacky friends -- who include porn stars (Selma Blair and Zak Orth), stoners (Rosario Dawson), a mullet-haired lunkhead (Shawn Hatosy), and a Jim Morrison look-alike named Jim Morrison (Ashton Kutcher) -- provide laughs, advice, and sexual temptation. The debut film from writer/director Kris Isacsson, the teen-themed Down to You marked a change of pace for normally grown-up Miramax Films. In addition to a slew of recent rock and pop, the film prominently features music from such downtown New York fixtures of the past decade as Deee-Lite ("Groove is in the Heart") and Cibo Matto ("Moonchild"). ~ Brian J.

In this romantic comedy-drama, two people whose lives were touched by the same tragedy find love. Buddy Amaral (Ben Affleck) is a successful L.A. advertising executive who has a way with the ladies, but inside he longs for a meaningful long-term relationship. One day Buddy sells his seat on a sold-out airline flight to a stranger; he's shocked when the jet crashes and the man is killed. A year later, still haunted by the incident, Buddy looks up Abby Janello (Gwyneth Paltrow), the victim's widow, who is now selling real estate to support her children. Buddy soon finds himself attracted to Abby, and the feeling is mutual, but while he's interested in marriage, he isn't sure how (or if) he should tell her that he was indirectly responsible for her husband's death. Bounce was written and directed by Don Roos, who made a splash with his independent debut The Opposite of Sex; supporting Affleck and Paltrow are Natasha Henstridge, Jennifer Grey, David Paymer, and Joe Morton. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This film, based on the novel by Arthur Golden, unfolds from the perspective of Chiyo (Zhang Ziyi), a girl who, at the age of nine, is sold to a geisha house in Kyoto in the early 1930s. Here, she learns that becoming a geisha can be the single path to wealth and independence for a woman. The head geisha of her house, however, Hatsumomo (Gong Li), is bitterly jealous of Chiyo and abuses her at every opportunity. Eventually Chiyo is taken under the wing of Hatsumomo's rival, Mameha (Michelle Yeoh), by far the most famous and successful geisha in their district. Under Mameha's tutelage, Chiyo becomes Sayuri, the most legendary geisha in the nation, skilled in all areas, from conversation to dance, and sought after by seemingly every man alive...except for the one whom she has secretly longed for since she began her training, The Chairman (Ken Watanabe) -- a man who showed her kindness at a time when her view of the world had turned the most bleak. Now as World War II approaches, Japan stands at the brink of a new era and Sayuri must confront the possibility that history will leave all that she has worked for behind. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi

Nora Ephron directed and co-wrote this updated adaptation of a classic situation comedy that also casts a satirical eye on the entertainment industry. Jack Wyatt (Will Ferrell) is a movie star whose career has been going into a slow and steady decline. Desperate for a project that will give his reputation a jump start, Jack agrees to star in a film version of the once-popular television series Bewitched as hapless hubby Darrin Stephens, under the condition that an unknown actress be cast as the female lead so he won't be upstaged. After auditioning dozens of women who fail to make the grade, Jack meets lovely and charming Isabel Bigelow (Nicole Kidman), and is immediately certain she's the perfect choice to play witch-turned-housewife Samantha. However, there's one thing neither Jack nor the producers of the film know -- Isabel really is a witch, and while she's been trying to get along without her powers to better fit in among mortals, she will use her special talents when need be. The film also stars Michael Caine as Isabel's father, Nigel, Shirley MacLaine as Iris Smythson (the actress hired to play Endora), and Jason Schwartzman as Jack's agent. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A young man gets a crash course in the madness of war in this fact-based drama from director Sam Mendes. Anthony "Swoff" Swofford (Jake Gyllenhaal) decides to join the Marines, just like his father and his father before him, and signs on just in time to be sent to Iraq to fight in the Gulf War in 1991. After experiencing the rigors of boot camp, Swofford and his pal Troy (Peter Sarsgaard) are trained to be snipers, and under the leadership of Sgt. Sykes (Jamie Foxx) and Lt. Col. Kazinski (Chris Cooper), the two land in the middle of a desert where they're up against an enemy they can't always see under a blazing sun with hours of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror. Swofford, Troy, and their fellow soldiers rely on the wits, their sense of humor, and their friendship of their brothers in arms to deal with a situation that doesn't much resemble what they saw on television at home. Jarhead was based on the memoirs of the real-life Anthony Swofford, who did serve as a sniper in the 1991 Gulf War; the title comes from military slang for a Marine enlistee. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Three loosely interrelated stories of dysfunctional relationships are played for edgy laughs in this dark comedy drama from writer and director Don Roos. An unexpected assignation between stepsiblings Mamie and Charley results in Mamie becoming pregnant, with the child being put up for adoption shortly after birth. Twenty years later, Mamie (Lisa Kudrow) is approached by Nicky (Jesse Bradford), an aspiring filmmaker with an abrasive personality who claims to know where her long-lost son is living. However, there's a catch -- Nicky wants to shoot the reunion for the student film he's working on, and won't tell her about her child unless she agrees, though her lover, Javier (Bobby Cannavale), attempts to work out a compromise. Meanwhile, Charley (Steve Coogan), now out of the closet, has a longstanding relationship with Gil (David Sutcliffe), and the couple are involved in a legal battle over whether or not Gil's donated sperm produced a baby who has been adopted by a lesbian couple they know (Laura Dern and Sarah Clarke). And finally, Jude (Maggie Gyllenhaal) is a bohemian malcontent who becomes involved with Otis (Jason Ritter), a sexually ambiguous rock musician. Otis has a difficult relationship with his father, Frank (Tom Arnold), but when Jude meets Frank, she likes him fine -- in fact, she soon falls in love with him and leaves Otis for his dad. Happy Endings had its world premiere at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A white-collar workaholic deceptively persuades his family to forgo their much-anticipated Hawaiian vacation for a cross-country road trip in a fully loaded RV, during which they discover the true meaning of family bonding, in Men in Black director Barry Sonnenfeld's family-friendly road comedy starring Robin Williams, Jeff Daniels, and Cheryl Hines. Bob Munro (Williams) is overworked and overstressed, and though his proposal to hit the road with his wife and two children at first sounds like a heartfelt bid to get better acquainted with his increasingly dysfunctional family, it soon becomes obvious that he had more career-oriented goals in mind when planning the trip. The Munros have always managed to get by in the past, though, and as they slowly become immersed in RV culture with a little help from a full-time troupe of Winnebago warriors, they might just make it to the Rocky Mountains without driving each other totally insane. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A political consultant in the midst of a bitter divorce attempts to delicately divulge the truth about his past relationships to his curious young daughter, who simply won't stop asking questions until she's satisfied with all the answers. Ten-year-old Maya (Abigail Breslin) is heartbroken to see her parents splitting up, but she's determined to find out precisely how it was that mom and dad came together in the first place. When Maya starts questioning her father Will (Ryan Reynolds) about his life before marriage, dad's memories soon drift back to the time when, as a naïve Wisconsin native and aspiring politician hoping to work on the presidential election, he first arrived in New York City. As Will gradually became savvy to the ways of the big city, he gradually developed romantic relationships with three very different women: Emily (Elizabeth Banks) was the girl-next-door that he could always depend on, apolitical April (Isla Fisher) was the best friend and confidante who was always there to listen, and free-spirited journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz) was both beautiful and ambitious. In order to prevent his perceptive little girl from predicting the outcome before his story is told, Will carefully changes the names of his three romantic interests, creating a hopelessly romantic puzzle that highlights both the joys and hardships of true love. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Titanic shipmates Kathy Bates, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Kate Winslet step onboard for director Sam Mendes' tale of suburban malaise in 1950s-era Connecticut. Adapted from the classic 1961 novel by author Richard Yates, Revolutionary Road tells the tale of a young Connecticut couple whose once-idealistic relationship steadily deteriorates into a ceaseless cycle of petty jealousy and bickering as they strive to retain their independence in the conformity-obsessed world of picket fences and perfectly manicured lawns. Ever since they first met, Frank (DiCaprio) and April (Winslet) saw themselves as special and different. They strive to form their relationship around higher ideals, though upon moving into their new home on Revolutionary Road, the defiant couple pledges never to be confined by the social conventions of the era. As time passes, however, Frank and April gradually become the very thing that they both feared most -- a typical suburban family complete with abandoned dreams and faded hopes. Frank loses his nerve after taking a comfortable job with a reliable salary, and April morphs into an unsatisfied homemaker desperate for passion and excitement. But April's independent spirit hasn't been suffocated just yet, and when she hatches a plan to head for Paris, her need to escape at all costs stands in direct contrast to Frank's desire to hold on to what they already have. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Based on the graphic novel by Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, Cowboys & Aliens is set in 1800s Arizona, where the local cowboys, headed by gunslinger Jake Lonergan (Daniel Craig), and the indigenous Apache tribe have been feuding fiercely for quite a while. Their skirmish is interrupted, however, by the appearance of a spaceship, commanded by an alien creature that's bent on enslaving the human race. It's time for a six-gun shoot-out between these cattle rustlers and space invaders, and there might even be a temporary peace between the cowboys and Indians as they both take aim at these extraterrestrial uninvited guests. Jon Favreau directs from a script by Star Trek scribes Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, with help from Lost's Damon Lindelof. Olivia Wilde, Harrison Ford, and Sam Rockwell fill out the headlining cast. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi

Don't wanna get too philosophical here, but the more I explore the genre; the more I realize how diverse it really is.
You could categorize by city (Baltimore, Chicago, Paris, NYC...) or by genre (Acid, Nu Disco, Soulfoul fluters, gospel...) or by year (198x to 2012) by label (Oji, NU groove, Trax...), but best way to find more is to read some party reviews here, or listen to some mixes, check the tracklistings and then go to discogs and look for anyone having this or that record in his lists or collection.
And then you may figure out what it is all about, and find more sounds that you like.
The archives of the forums are going far in defining what is deephouse, the only thing everyone will agree with is that Jack created house.

Comin' to a town near you!
Live life to the fullest today, because tomorrow is not promised - Alarick T
I am living vicarously through myself - That Dos Equis Commercial Guy
Martin, the soul/spiritual/body reference alludes to the Eddie Amador track and was meant to good naturally point out that depth is not quantitative. It is always, even beyond this conversation, contextual--or, more accurately, discursive. One measures depth relative to something else. A pool's deep end is relative to its shallow end; the grand canyon's depth is a function of the land that rests above it. And on and on.
In the case of house, the term demarcates a particular intellectual and social position rather than an aesthetic or sonic style. That is to say, deep house is not about congas or vocals or murky sounds; it is, has always been, about orientation. It is a decision in which the listener/participant/actor chooses to orient him or herself with a particular tradition. In the case of deep house, this tradition is African American.
And since I have been reading DHP for too long to think that I can leave that last sentence in the digital ether and expect it to fend for itself. . . This is not to say that there were no other races involved during the creation of house. There are members on this board whose status precludes such a claim. Nor is it to discount the UK's role (since you mentioned the flag in Sammy's picture).
However, positionality of any kind obliges one to choose a particular moral perspective, which is, in part, always already a matter of aesthetic choice. That is to say that the infinite variety of sounds and sights available to each of us are made sense of by the particular perspectives we have chosen to live through. And because we each apprehend the world from a particular ideological position, our responses are always a part of that position. Consequently, it is not what we value, but, rather, how and why we value something.
This, of course, leads to the question of where the individual sits within this sort of exchange. More directly, does one's acknowledgement of existing within a particular perspective conjure the sort of essentialist notions that they were meant to guard against?
I would suggest that the answer is no. One's position within a particular perspective does not come into being because he or she has acknowledged it. Rather, the acknowledgement only allows one to take notice of the relative difference between perspectives. More clearly, to know that your likes and dislikes are always guided by innumerable experiences and moral investments is to be able to better negotiate the world.
The jazz critic and novelist Albert Murray has described this phenomenon as a dialogue between the individual and his or her community. An artist, Murray writes, finds his or her individuality by saying "'yes and also' to that with which he agrees, and by saying 'no,' or in any case, 'on the other hand,' to that with which he disagrees." Implicit in Murray's arrangement is the fact that the artist has already invested in the community to whom he or she speaks. In other words, the artist's acceptance or refusal of any particular product works from a larger investment in perspective/community.
In the case of deep house, then, there are a lot of people who say "and also," what determines if their work is deep is whether or not they have first said "yes."
I suppose the question now becomes: why does any of this matter? For me, it leads us away from notions of authenticity, which too often start out as an attempt to guard against appropriation and end up as a delimiting force. By this design, one's political or aesthetic preferences neither preclude nor include them into the group. Rather, the rubric by which one becomes member is a matter of their investment in the particular perspective the community holds. Sometimes tastes cohere; sometimes they do not, but what is important is an investment in the traditions by which the community has been built.
This probably too much already so I'll stop here, but hopefully that clears up my initial post.
Depends on how much Ketamine is at the party
Lotsa techhouse djs & events have been dropping more deephouse because so many clubbers are preferring that to "e" or coke

What makes deep house deep to me is when we can survive as an artist/performer and have people who pay you for your just do! I can name a few great people who deserve mega praise for there contributions and no matter if 5000 or 500 patrons show up, you get paid!
House has been my music, my escape, my living existence. But the non sense I CAN DO WITHOUT! We have matured from the days of taking acid and all other fuckery to enjoy the vibrations. I PERSONALLY do not need the shade factor in my life! Deep House makes me think about people like John Davis, Benny Soto, Anetra Tilley, Tamir Family Soul and more! We are big people in this thing called House and I for 1 take no praise in my efforts to do a great Job in all I DO! I love people and the best thing that could ever happen to me was when my daughter called me on the phone and said, "dad, me and my girl friends did a dance routine to Voices by KC FLIGHT" That right there had a tear falling from my face, because at 16 she could be listening to Lamborghini Mercy your chick she so Thirsty... you feel me?
Deep House is like when you see Wayne Williams of the Chosen Few at a 718 party! This is the Big Wig of Sony! Deep House is is Like brothers and sisters throwing there mixes up on a podcast, for free just to show love of the art!
Deep House is like going to B-More and receiving the same love as if you was in Jersey or New York!
Deep House is like going over seas and being looked at like your George Michael or Dianna Ross for your efforts!
No matter how you see it We that Love the Art of Deep House will be here for a long time because we believe in it!
Now all the Super Paid $$$$ DJ'S had to recognize Marshall Jefferson, Steve Silk Hurley, LLR, FK ,Larry Levan, Larry Patterson, David De Pina Danny Krivit ( SHIT) the list goes on Frankie Knuckles, Joe Smooth, Fast Eddie, Chip E, Mel Cheren, Todd Terry, Ten City, Crystal Waters, Sylvester, Adeva, Danny Tenaglia, ( Mr. Mancuso) i can name so many more, I do not want to forget anyone ....But man I HAVE TO SAY Naeem Johnson because from the radio to the club Naeem let Jersey know that house is a feeling that can last forever! Tony Hump and more! These are people that travel the world and do what they deo and do it well!
Now check this out! There are DJ'S that now play progressive but I PRAY THAT THERE DEEPHOUSE ROOTS are still with them to the fullest....
What makes deephouse deep? ( I was in the 11th or 12th grade when DJ DISCIPLE was on 91.5 at Hunter College! Rocking the Box on College Radio! I claim this culture because it has made me successful and at the same time broke me! Mentally and Financially....
I shared me views, there is more to say Shout to Dip Duron Tariq and Barry Be for keeping Deep House Alive at Elevations and they continue to make it Pop!
One Love!
The art of Creative movement is my constant flow "Can You Dig It". Ras.Anthony.

AMD released the second edition of Catalyst 13.8 Beta driver suite, marked by "V2." The drivers bring with them a bucket-list of game specific performance improvements, beginning with up to 25 percent on Saints Row 4 at 1920 x 1080 and Ultra settings enabled; up to 9 percent on Splinter Cell: Blacklist at 2560 x 1600 and Ultra settings; improvements on single-GPU and CrossFireX performance with Final Fantasy XIV; improves single-GPU performance on RIPD; CrossFire performance on Minimum and Castlevania Lords of Shadow. Catalyst 13.8 Beta V2 also fixes image quality issues with Van Helsing, display corruption when enabling anti-aliasing through Catalyst Control Center, for Far Cry 3 and FC3: Blood Dragon; random corruption issues on Doom 3 BFG Edition, and CrossFire frame-pacing issues with World of Warcraft, Sniper Elite, Watch Dogs, and Tomb Raider. DOWNLOAD: AMD Catalyst 13.8 Beta V2
I had a feeling Tomb Raider still ran crappy with the first 13.8 drivers. Will try these on my 7970/7950 CFX setup when I have time. Hopefully they re-enabled CFX on Far Cry 3 as it didn't work with the V1 set.
I actually tested both those games today, and they both played well. TR ran great for me in the limited testing I did, but TR had played smoothly on the previous version. FC3 ran nicely also, and CFX worked for me. It's funny: when 13.8b1 came out, FC3 played beautifully. Then I reinstalled 13.4 to test something, and after then going back to 13.8, I seemed that some occasional stuttering came back. Strange. Tested briefly with the 13.8b2 and it seemed perhaps a little better, but it wasn't perfect. I think there's something going on with my system, some remnants left over affecting it (despite my attempts to clean it all out). All in all, I can't complain. But I'd like to hear your feedback Justin on your setup, to compare
Something useful for the Catalyst Beta drivers... http://rejzor.wordpress.com/2013/08/20/amd-catalyst-beta-without-net-4-5-framework/ So that silly .NET Framework is not fucked up every single time you install beta drivers. And someone at AMD better fix this crap soon...
Same here, only had a problem with it once, when it didn't install the framework even though it should have. Solution was simple ofc, install it myself afterwards.
great my comp crashed after installing the .net crap. bsod said failed to rest video driver, timed out.
One thing I noticed about this released is that zero core seems not kicking in. ULPS is not disabled.... I didnt use my computer for like 10 mins, no video, no browser open, 2nd gpu doesnt "idle". I switch to beta 1, and few minutes after, 2nd gpu "idle"
I had this too. It said it would do that if you used Overdrive and cfx so make sure that is off. I also uninstalled msi ab, but that didn't help. What finally seemed to fix it for me was to disable crossfire, then reenable it shortly thereafter. After doing that, gpu2 kicked just in while gaming. Alternatively you could disable ulps
hmmm thanks manofthem.. actually I dont use overdrive. I OC'd my card with trixx and I dont disable ULPS as I dont OC much. My cards has "lights".... vapor x 7950.... Previous beta, it eventually switch off "gpu 2" when im not playing. When I start to play, 2nd card switch on.... "known Issues of The AMD Catalyst 13.8 Beta2 Driver for Windows: CrossFire configurations (when used in combination with Overdrive) can result in the secondary GPU usage running at 99%" Eventually, I experienced this already at Beta 1. It seems AMD didnt fix this yet. It seems they rush Beta 2. Right now I switch back to 13.4 as i get annoyed by the beta 1 running the 2nd gpu all the time even I dont use extensive video... or gaming. I also just installed the CAP cause I always crash in Metro Last Light whereas 13.4 is not that much crashes
One thing I noticed with 13.8 beta1 is when the PC is idling and monitor going to power save the idle watts goes up. Usually my system with monitor on idles at 108w (from UPS including monitor), then power save kicks in after 5 minutes, the system idles @ 81w. Now with the Beta1 the system idles @ 159w after monitor power save kicks in, When monitor resumes idle goes back to 108w, something is happenning with the GPU idle clocks/volts. I am going to go back to 13.4 and see if it's the same. Uninstalled 13.8 B1 and went back to 13.4 and this issue seems to be gone!
Tr and Fc 3 run fine on my setup (Cf'd 7850's) I am using whql drivers. The 13.8's seemed to make my gpu's run hot.
These drivers so far appear to perform on a much better level than the first 13.8 betas with my single GPU configuration. Either way other games are going to have to deal since I am wanting best performance I can get for Saints Row IV when it comes out over here.
I've got an error message saying the digital signage of the driver hosted here on the TPU isn't correct and that I should try downloading it from the original source. Whats up with that? Did someone tamper with the download that's hosted here? Weird stuffs Edit: downloaded off of the dutch mirror.
I downloaded though the US 2 link through TPU and had no issues. Although it appeared .NET 4.5 was forced installed instead of skipping it for some reason.
I got the error after the install was complete, I downloaded and installed the driver off of AMD's own page after just to be sure. That install didn't give me an error. I just reinstalled the driver from TPU's dutch mirror, didn't give me an error this time. Weird stuff. I should've made a screeny of the error, but sadly I didn't. It was just a generic unsigned driver error though, so don't know if it matters. Anyway, if noone else can replicate it, I suppose some error crept in at my side?

Falcon Gravity Concentrators
Millimeters to Microns, 60-600x Gravity Force
Higher G-forces = Higher Recovery
For over 21 years we have dedicated our research and development to simple, proven and effective high G-force gravity concentration equipment for the recovery of FINE minerals and materials in a wide range of industries.
Sepro Mineral Systems has 3 models of Falcon Centrifugal Gravity Concentrators:
Continuous C Concentrator - Semi Batch SB Concentrator - Ultra Fine UF Concentrator
All models rely on a rotating bowl to generate high gravitational forces, but each model is unique in the way that it collects and produces concentrate. High gravitations forces are used to exploit the differences in density between particles, allowing for a cleaner and much finer separation than is possible using low G devices.
Sepro Mineral Systems has a complete range of Falcon machines from small portable units for laboratory testing to units that are capable of treating over 400 tonnes per hour.
With a highly professional international team of representatives on 6 continents across the globe, Sepro guarantees you excellent service and after sales support for all your Falcon products.
Will a gravity concentrator work in my application?
If you are unfamiliar with gravity concentrators, our first recommendation is always: Testwork! There is excellent correlation between lab results and industrial performance for our concentrators. The Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) test is the industry standard for determining the potential for free gold recovery, but accurate test procedures have been developed for gold sulphides, base metals, industrial minerals and a variety of other materials.

Teaching English to children the right way
If you love teaching, but work in a place you can't stand, then there is nothing worse than teaching English to children. You desperately want to set the kids free and knock some sense into their overbearing and controlling mothers. You wonder if the parents or staff would fit through the open window, but you remember that next month's rent is due so you politely bite your tongue.
Then begins hours of forced labor with exam book after exam book repeating, "This is a pen," until you are hoarse and your face goes numb. The kids hate it. You hate it. The mothers and staff don't care either way. Any type of emotional connection with your students is forgotten; they are zombies and you are replaceable at any given moment with another poor sap – fresh meat just off the boat (or airplane these days).
If you love children, and are passionate about teaching, this type of working environment will destroy you.
I know because I've been there. You make sweet promises. You tell yourself you can do better, but financial insecurity and fear of failure keep you from realizing your potential. I am not speaking to the folks here in Japan to earn a quick buck. They would quit a job at the drop of a hat if the next one meant a higher salary. People like that have a total disregard for their students' emotional well being. They are quickly tarnishing the entire English teaching profession for the rest of us who are truly passionate about our work. They are suffering because they hate their work and thus hate life.
I am talking to you – the one who is suffering because you love your work, thus loving life. If this is you, read on. There is a brighter future for you, and it's time to take the first step. The world needs you and your passion. There is a way out – it is the path of part-time jobs. Welcome to the freelance life.
After quitting my full-time job and moving to Tokyo, a funny idea entered my mind: why apply for another contracted full-time teaching job when I could simply find several different part-time jobs around Tokyo? That was possible, wasn't it? I soon found my intuition was spot on – a mere hours after applying for part-time work the requests for interviews wouldn't stop coming. I was perplexed and amazed. How is it possible that I had half a dozen job offers in less than two days? And did I really want to be a teacher again?
But we don't plan on these things, do we? The world beats down a path for the truly committed. I never wanted to teach English – and I certainly never planned on working at a nursery; that was the furthest thing from my mind growing up. I was a manly man; I guided cargo boats down some of the most dangerous rivers in the United States. I dug over 6,000 miles of wilderness trail while living on nothing but moldy peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and TVP. Even if there were a shower, I wouldn't have taken one. I was too busy carving my name in the world. I was the man who shaved every morning with a straight razor and a frozen bar of soap. My dry cabin in the Alaskan wilderness was -10 indoors. When I went to do my business I always carried an ax in hand to welcome some critter who might not be paying rent for my outhouse. I should spend my life working with kids? And it will be enjoyable you say? Ha! What a riot!
And here I was, with dozens of the little monsters climbing all over me, changing diapers, and wondering how it happened. I was a real man all right; I bought 20 packets of cute fluffy kitten stickers at the 100 yen shop for my girls. And I loved every minute of it. Fast forward six months, and I am working nine part-time jobs, but now I have started my own freelance translation business. The money is good. I work where I want and only teach in places which give me the freedom to make my own lessons and care for my students. Here is why you should do the same…
Work fewer hours, make more money
When I was working full-time at an eikaiwa, I made 265,000 yen per month. I worked strange hours, usually leaving my house at noon for the 50-minute commute, and not arriving home until 10 p.m. I never had two consecutive days off – they were always on Sundays and Tuesdays, and I was often required to come into the office on my holidays to attend school events and training sessions, for which I was not paid. That's 50 hours a week, either working or on my way to work, which means that I made roughly 1,325 yen per hour.
Now, I usually work two part-time jobs per day. My hours vary, but I work no more than four hours per day. I have no weekends, but that's because I have my own translation business which helps supplement my teaching income. I used to work 32 hours per week, but after being more selective with the places I work, I now can earn a living only working 24 hours per week. I estimate my hourly income to be 2,200 yen per hour and I bring in about 213,000 per month (only teaching work included). Due to few daily working hours, and the fact that I love my job, every day feels like a holiday.
Please note that these hourly income estimates include the time needed to travel to work. From the numbers above, you can easily see how part-time work leads to working less hours and a higher hourly wage. Also, if you choose to teach adults, you will likely make 3,000-6,000 yen per hour. I have a friend who works the same number of hours as me teaching adults part-time, and his salary is triple what I make. To each his own. I enjoy working with children.
A great resume and contact builder
Some would argue that a billion part-time jobs will destroy your resume. This can be true if you frequently change jobs because employers will see you as unreliable. However, working in different environments and learning new skills can really give your resume that extra boost. If you are willing to commit to your part-time jobs for the long-term, English schools will snatch you up seconds after submitting your application, because they see you have a wide variety of teaching experience. When I apply to English schools now, within one hour of submitting my application, I usually am asked to come for an interview. Think about it this way: if you are the hiring manager, who are you going to choose?
a) Someone who has taught as an ALT in the same school for 4 years, or
b) Someone who has used over 30 different textbooks, helped prepare kids for entrance exams and English proficiency tests, created and led a TPR and song-based curriculum in international schools, taught ages 1-86, had experience with both private students and large class sizes, and has a list of 10 different professional references who can all say wonderful things about him/her.
Part-time work will also give you an endless supply of professional contacts, especially if you live somewhere like Tokyo. It's a small world, and you will find that once you have your foot in the door, Mr A from your company will quickly introduce you to more teaching jobs than you really want or need.
Choose your poison
With part-time work, you are in control. No more being bound to a company because they are sponsoring your visa. With part-time work, you can find a visa sponsor easily, sometimes only being required to work for your sponsor for a few hours per week. This freedom allows you to be very selective about where you work and who you work with (as you should be). I don't accept jobs and sign contracts unless I absolutely love my school. I only work in places which allow me to write my own lessons and help my kids become autonomous learners. Take control of your teaching career. You are a professional and you deserve to be treated with respect. Most part-time jobs have trial periods where you can see if you will be comfortable in your new school (the trial period is more for your boss's sake than your own). If you don't like it, please do other teachers and yourself a favor and find somewhere else you enjoy.
New experiences
Finally, by teaching at several part-time jobs, you will literally be thrown into the lion's den for the first few months (unless you are an old-fart with lots of experience). Schools will ask you to sing, dance, draw cute pictures of kittens and tofu spaghetti monsters, build furniture, dress kids for school, change diapers, be pooped/peed on while changing diapers, chase homeless people away when you visit the park, make bento lunches (including cute animals made from wieners), lifting 3-6 kids at once to catch the bus, play the piano, be an actor or comedian, wear funny costumes, etc. You get the idea. Get ready for one hell of an adventure, because you're in for the ride of your life.
In summary, part-time English teaching is not only a way to work less hours, make more money, and find more enjoyable work. It allows you to remember why you loved teaching in the first place. It will help rekindle your passion, and give you hope for the future. We teachers know that education is more than a job – we are changing the world. It's high time we return to doing what we love and tell these large chain schools to stop viewing children as dollar signs, and start treating them as human beings. Life is too short to hate what you do. Work with love, start enjoying life, and be happy.

We are barely two weeks away from an election day that, to paraphrase Churchill, is not the beginning of our end (our end as a nation has been, like the end of each human life, a process built-in at conception, with our last gasp set in motion by our first breath) but may signal the end of the beginning of our end.
Our unemployment has fallen in no small part thanks to a terrifying reduction in the labor force, and we can reasonably say that under-educated women and minorities have been the hardest hit. Cliches are grounded in truth.
Our churchesat least the politically incorrect onesare encountering an unprecedented assault on religious conscience that will only broaden in suppression as secularist social thinking continues to ferment.
Our society, unschooled in critical thinking and distracted by the world of 10,000 things, cannot tell you whether for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, or who governs their state, but can say who is Dancing with the Stars.
In what can only be considered a clarion call for the restoration of high school classes in civics, philosophy, and some history classes with depth of perspective, supporters of both presidential candidates were recently on social media sites threatening to commit suicide if their candidate does not emerge victorious on November 6. Less morbid ideologues are merrily smiling for the cameras and aligning themselves with their candidate of choice even as they admit that they have no idea what is happening in the world, or what their men propose for the next four years.
We are a nation becoming unmoored from the historical social stabilizers, and we are too morosely or giddily benumbed to understand how quickly we can lose sight of our certain shores, or how arduous our paddle-backs might be.
The usual campaign ironies have emerged on schedule, with people who formerly took issue with the deified images of Barack Obama in 2008 now carving Mitt Romneys features into their crops and women demonstrating their umbrage at being objectified by cavorting around dressed as binders and artistically rendered vulva.
Our presidential candidates move about like appetites on legs. They remind me a little of the vampires populating our pulp-fiction and our airways: good-looking men whose smiles belie the fangs they routinely expose toward each other. Their vice-presidential candidates are comprised of two Catholics, one a clown and the other a clerk.
Often, while pondering this election and whether any of these men are up to the task of helping America become engaged, serious, and ready to start dreamingbecause it is in our dreaming that we will come back to ourselves; as Montaigne said, we sleeping wake, and waking sleepI feel the urge to weep. Im not feeling despair, exactly; I have enough faith to accept that Gods hand is ultimately in all things, and that his plans may require something to happen in my lifetime that will serve his purpose in my grandchildrens.
Still, there is a restlessness, and in recent weeks, when that feeling comes upon me, I have found an outlet in an unexpected sourceBaronius Press newly released edition of Msgr. Ronald Knoxs translation of the Saint Jeromes Vulgate Bible; The so-called Knox Bible, which he began at the urging of the bishops of England and Wales in 1936 and completed nine years later. A beautifully bound volume, I find myself responding with fresh eyes to the layout, which is formatted like prose, and the minimal distraction of footnotes. This is not a study bible; its a reading bible, and Knoxs language pulls us into the scriptural stories and images we know so very well and then elevates us with its staggering beauty.
Opening the book at random, I encountered the Song of Songs:
What a wound thou hast made, my bride, my true love, what a wound thou hast made in this heart of mine! And all with one glance of an eye, all with one ringlet straying on thy neck!
There, in a few dozen words, I got a glimpse of the whole mystery of Gods design and his ineffable love for us. The Creator so beguiled with his Creation that he is willing to become vulnerable to it; willing to live and bleed and die for the sake of such a love. Knoxs translation crystallized the truth that we can too easily forget in our electoral anxieties, that yes, Gods hand has been involvedfrom the first nanosecond, in all of our human affairsand it remains, even when society seems adrift, and when the princes of the world seem wholly inadequate to their offices.
Yes, I read it and I wept. Not in fear, not in despair, but in consolation at the reminder, rendered so beautifully by Knox, that the world has resided in the madness of sin and shadow since Eden, but we are never abandoned, and need never be afraid.

Mitt Romney, all of the above, who spent himself and his wealth for others in many and diverse ways, is one of the "appetites on legs"?
This is extremely unlikely in the present arrangement. The education guild, which controls the indoctrination of children is thoroughly dedicated to the politics of the left-with its themes of statism, redistributionalism, grievance politics and sexual libertinism. Worse, it is not only disinclined to pursue such a project, it is unqualified and incapable.
Any restoration of these ideals will have to come from the home (difficult given the state of the family) or other mediating institutions, such as the Church,but given the explosion in the number of religiously unafffiliated (and the number of compartmentalizing, nomimally religious types of the "personally opposed" variety) this will also be a tough proposition.
Keep on keeping on, Anchoress!
"greedy real estate brokers artificially inflated housing prices"
Do you want to explain how thousands and thousands of highly independent and fiercely competitive brokers accomplished this, and then maintained it over a period of years, especially when buyers have been able can readily assess the price of comparable real estate with a few clicks of a mouse or now a few taps on the screen of a phone-and managed to keep this arrangement operative over years?
As a former bank auditor, I find this to be a fantasy.
Yes, as a matter of fact, I did.
Now that having been said, the NEA and state education associations are the most militant and cohesive organizations. I received two pieces of mail today from the same state candidate that complained that his opponent supported "devastating" education cuts.
Your school board is increasingly neutered by State legislatures-and increasingly Congress that are often mandating content, er I mean doctrine.
In my state, teachers are allowed to strike-and often threaten to do so at "pressure points", such as at the end of the year so graduating seniors college matriculations are put in jeopardy. Any strike annoys parents because with single parent and dual income families-school is day care.
My point was that organized constituencies own the store.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - The Navy has disciplined five sailors for their roles in the training accident deaths of two Navy divers in Maryland.
Navy Diver 1st Class James Reyher of Caldwell and Navy Diver 2nd Class Ryan Harris of Gladstone, Missouri., drowned on February 26 while working at the Aberdeen Proving Ground.
A spokesman says the Navy can't release the names of those who received the non-judicial punishment because it is an administrative matter. Each sailor may choose to challenge the punishment in a court martial.
Earlier this month, the Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration found seven serious violations at the facility where the drowning deaths occurred. Among those violations were improper training for divers; allowing dives to be performed without a standby diver; and using breathing air for purposes other than breathing.
In June, a hearing was held to determine whether to press formal criminal charges against two sailors for dereliction of duty and involuntary manslaughter. The nonjudicial punishments stem from that investigation.
