Quadraphenia is a classic route with varied climbing. 1: Climb up a nice crack corner up to a small right facing dihedral to a nice ledge. (5.7+; Natural Anchor) 2: Mantle onto a small ledge with thin (PG/R) pro until you reach the crack, continue up to a large double overhang via crack. (5.6; small, semi-hanging, belay w/natural anchor) 3: Climb past a sick overhang on the right with nice exposure that turns to a really nice corner/dihedral to another sick overhang. (5.7; bolted anchor) 4: Follow broken cracks and face, veering left to the top. Pitches can be combined in different sequence if desired, but typically people combine pitches 2 and 3. Descent: It is possible to make two double-rope rappels from the top of the 3rd pitch. If you plan on summiting, walk to the climbers right,then make your way (carefully!!) back down to the bolted anchor atop pitch 3. Best consult the topo. Some recent route history: There was a pin on pitch two placed as recently as 2008. The pin was placed in a rogue style with no consensus and no consultation with the FA parties. Don Mellor's guide has no mention of the pin and says to climb with little pro to the crack. For more route history grab a copy of the Adirondack climbing guide "Adirondack Rock"
Route is located on the left side of the crag. It starts 50' left of a prominent left facing corner, and chimney.
Great climb. Worth an annual visit. Combines face and crack climbing. Gear - standard rack with cams to a #2 Camalot. Small Loweballs help protect P2 but not a must.
One 60m double-rope rappel will get you from the top of the 3rd pitch to the ground with very little rope to spare. Knot those ends!
excellent rock quality and exposure! I don't know about the last pitch though, rapped from the top of the third as it looked chossy and was going to get dark soon. used a lot more TCU's than I expected.
Link pitch 2 and 3 together. The belay stance in between is kind of crappy.
"Natural belays" = tiny trees. Belay at P1 being the less problematic, and there are places near the dying tree to backup with pro. The second belay is utter shit. Managed a micro stopper and C4 .3 to backup the tiny birch. Under the roof was too wet and awkward to get a good anchor built. Unfortunately doing P2 and 3 together might have resulted in running out of ideal gear and/or draws, but would have skipped the second belay. Protecting the roof sections eats gear for lunch. I liked P1 and 2 the best because they were what I think of when I set off to climb in the ADKs. P3 reminds me of the Gunks, but after discussion with this page's creator (just happen to climb with him often) he reminded me that to be a true Gunks climb we would have pulled the roofs. lol
The third pitch is definitely the money pitch. That said, the belay for the P3 can be quite awful. We, possibly mistakenly, set up a hanging belay right before the roof section of the third pitch begins. The tree some people probably use as an anchors would never be something I'd trust my life with. It's simply too scrawny. I'm definitely not a very big fan of overbolting, but I do have to say a set of fixed achors at the top of P! and P2 would be quite amazing and would easily make this a super classic.
It's possible to make solid gear anchors at P1 and P2, it's just not straight-forward. That said, and as I have comment previously...link P2 and P3, you will be happier. Bring doubles if in doubt. As well, a flake on the forth pitch finally detached this past winter. Be aware as your work left above the bolted belay that there is some loose debris.
If you decide to climb the 4th pitch(do it, it's fun...) be very careful not to knock loose rock down. This pitch is actually quite fun and protects fairly easily. Personally, I thought that the standard P3(I linked 2 and 3) was harder than P1. Definitely mentally challenging if you're just breaking into leading 5.7 and 5.8. Luckily, jugs are almost always lurking. Descend carefully. I was able to make 2 rappels with a small section of exposed ledge traversing in between. I think a 70m is necessary due to the last rappel. Fantastic climb.
Amazing Climbing! First pitch is a fun warm up for the second pitch which pulls through an awesome roof (crux) then up a corner to a ledge with anchors. I recommend doing the third pitch up to the summit for amazing views on a nice day!
I would strongly urge that no one attempt to replace the piton. The fixed protection should be replaced in the same manner as was the original. Altering the nature of the pro is altering the climb.
What Mike says is not fact, it's an opinion. Hopefully someone puts something there.
FWIW, I climbed this yesterday and can confirm there is no piton on P2. The moves are definitely R now, as in years past I don't remember feeling it was that scary there! It is possible to climb the face just right of the open book which while also unprotected gains the horizontal ledge above a little more quickly. I found this to be a little more comfortable simply because it wasn't quite as balancy a move (better feet and hands I think). Anyway, a 5.7/5.8 leader might find this very uncomfortable until a piton is replaced. (I agree it should be up to the FAs to decide if a bolt is acceptable)
I have found out that this pin was recently placed as recently as four years ago. Apparently the pin was placed in a rogue style with no consensus and no consultation with the FA parties. The former pin was not placed during the FA. Don Mellor describes the pitch as having little protection (until the crack is reached). I for one see no reason to alter the route. For that matter this is rock climbing and climbers see things differently. Fixed gear gets on routes sometimes by accident. Hopefully we can minimize our impact to the ADK and preserve our wondrous resource for our children to enjoy. Thanks for the input.
adirondackrock.com/corrections_2010.htm They've at least updated Pitch 2 to PG for the next guide printing. Hopefully the word gets out of this change. Just sucks for all those who have older guides and/or people who have climbed the route before that may not hear of the change. Guess that's part of the activity - holds, bolts, and rap stations aren't permanent.
The descent beta, from the top of the cliff, is incorrect. If you top out on Quadraphenia, you only need one 60m rope and you will make three rappels from anchors that are not on the route! see Adirondack Rock for details.
So about this runout on p2... how bad is it? It's 5.6 if I understand correctly, and you're making face moves until you gain a crack? How far are you going before this crack? Is it 5.6 the whole way?
The runout is brief. Maybe a body length or two? The "issue" if one could even call it that, is that it's right off the belay, so any fall would have the potential to factor 2 the anchor, which is somewhat finicky to build, by the way. In reality you're much more likely to simply land on the belay ledge. While still not good at all, this is far better than a full factor 2 on to your anchor. I guess I'd characterize this section as requiring care and a bit of caution, but certainly not as a reason to stay away. Of course YMMV, especially if 5.7 is near your lead limit. Best not to fall off...
The first moves of P2 I protected with a micronut... not R exactly, but you should be solid on 5.6 to be comfortable here. You would be jumping down maybe 5 ft to the ledge if you blow it.
Adding a piton or a bolt on pitch 2 would not make this a real ADIRONDACK climb. I found I could somewhat protect the iffy section with small nuts, as long as I had in mind that falling was not an option :-)

"I Am BioLogos"
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
Today we draw your attention to a couple of short term projects that have been completed and are now visible on our site: Our History and Small Group Resources.
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
There is no formula for generating beliefs in people. There are plenty of people with access to the same facts who end up believing different things. But for many Christians—like the ones I heard from this week—access to information about the position we call "evolutionary creation" could make a significant difference for reconciling science and Christian faith.
A deep love for scripture, coupled (ironically) with a lifelong struggle with religious doubt, led Robert Boyle to write several important books relating scientific and religious knowledge. We explore aspects of this fascinating interaction.
With From the Dust, it was our goal to help Christians see the complexity of the issues raised by modern science, as well as help them to courageously engage with the theological conversations happening within the sphere of Christian culture today.
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
We're pleased to introduce the first official commercials for BioLogos, produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and featuring BioLogos vice president Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright.
Last month, we announced the 37 grantees from our Evolution & Christian Faith program! This month, we take a closer look at the projects and what's "in the pipeline" over the coming years from these grantees!
The problem is that as human beings, we know that goodness exists, so it must be accounted for, and if one is a staunch believer in scientism, it must be accounted for scientifically.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
With great pleasure, the Board of Directors of The BioLogos Foundation announces the appointment of Deborah Haarsma to become our next President, and of Jeffrey Schloss to the role of Senior Scholar. Professor Haarsma assumes leadership from our outgoing President Darrel Falk, to whom we owe a tremendous debt of gratitude.
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
My goal in leading this organization for these past three and a half years has been to lay the groundwork to help my fellow evangelicals see that the conflict between our faith and mainstream science is not as great as they thought it was. In the process, my thinking has been significantly shaped by listening to people who think differently than I do
Part of BioLogos mission is to show how all things hold together in Christ—to show how a Christian worldview integrates the knowledge we have of God through the Scriptures with the knowledge we have of God through the other areas in which He reveals himself as Creator and Redeemer.

ESKO – As the only postseason-experienced veteran on a young team, Daron Mainville is the go-to player in big games for the Bombers.
But rather than just use her big size advantage inside, the Barnum junior jolted her team last week with her enthusiasm.
Mainville, a 6-foot-2 center, collected a game-leading 24 points. However, it was the post player's boisterous voice, fist pumps and continual support that helped carry the Bombers to a thrilling 69-62 overtime victory over South Ridge in a Section 7A second-round girls basketball game last Thursday evening in Esko.
Entering the season, Mainville was the only returning player with any significant varsity experience on a youthful Barnum team with no seniors. A formidable force in the paint, Mainville has been on the varsity for four seasons, since her first year as an eighth-grade reserve in 2010 when the Bombers won the state championship.
"There have always been upperclassmen for me to look up to," Mainville said last week outside of the gym. "So now, it's kind of a new role for me. I just didn't want our season to end."
Waiting until the end last week, Barnum battled back against South Ridge, outscoring the Culver-based school down the stretch of regulation and overtime. Behind by a bucket at halftime, the Bombers later sent the game into the extra session at 60-60 on Megan Nelson's inside bank shot with four seconds remaining.
The Bombers held the Panthers to one basket in overtime, and scored all nine of its points from the free-throw line, including Mainville's final swish.
"We practice free throws a lot," Mainville said. "For us to do those little things that add up to a big factor – especially in the playoffs – that means a lot to, basically, our brand-new team."
After graduating all of last season's starters, South Ridge lost to Barnum by 30 points during the regular season. Last week, they led much of the game, before tiring in overtime. Mikayla Olesiak, Krystal Karppinen, Justice Janke and Lindsey Janke all scored in double figures, as the Panthers finished 8-18.
"We were right there," said Panthers Coach Brad Olesiak. "I'm proud. We were a little tired – and it's going to be a tough one to swallow for the girls – but they went out and played hard."
The 11-win Bombers played to their season's end Saturday in Hibbing, when they lost 51-46 to rival Cromwell-Wright.
First-year Coach Katie Moench was realistic.
"To think of who we were as a team when we started to who we are as a team now, we've improved so much," she said. "We're able to compete. I think we accomplished more than anybody thought we could of. And right there, that's victory."
Much like Mainville's enthusiasm.
"I think everyone on our team would say we look to [Daron] for advice," said teammate Cheyanne Johnson. "She's always patting us on the back and keeps our spirits up, no matter what."

Bedtime? and some dancing :-)

So over the last few months, Annie and I listen to Chloe and Sebastian through the baby monitor during bedtime, and instead of hearing quiet children, Annie and I hear the two kids laughing and playing! So we decided to put a camera in the nursery to see what they are doing. Here is a video of what we saw.
The kids have also began to develop their sense of rhythm. Here is another video.

ROAD users flouting traffic laws face increases of up to 30 per cent on a range of fines from the end of this month.
The latest offences to attract stiffer penalties include driving an unregistered car and running a red light, and for disobeying no-stopping and no-parking signs.
About a third of traffic fines will be included in the price rises following a 10-year review.
Infrastructure department deputy secretary David Peters said the penalties needed to go up to remain a deterrent to breaking the rules.
"The increases will ensure that the value of Traffic Infringement Notice fines is maintained in real terms," he said.
"The fines that will increase in line with Consumer Price Index increases account for only approximately one-third of all TINs issued by police in the last three years."
Offences such as speeding, not wearing a seatbelt and mobile phone use are not included after they were reviewed recently.
Mr Peters said the fines were still acceptable deterrents since the last review in 2001.
"Since then there have been no significant variations in crash causes and the original principles used to set these fines are still relevant and appropriate," he said.
Mr Peters said Tasmanian fines were still lower than in many other states and the national average.
"The bottom line, of course, is that the increased fines, or traffic fines of any kind for that matter, are avoidable if motorists always do the right thing," he said.
"In short, if you don't want to pay the fine, don't commit the traffic offence."
Mr Peters said the department was considering reviewing the fines every three years rather than waiting for the automatic indexed increase every decade.
Last week it was revealed the State Government was forced to rush legislation through Parliament to make a fine increase last year legitimate after then attorney-general Lara Giddings failed to correctly increase the standard penalty unit from $120 to $130.
Current Attorney-General Brian Wightman repeated the mistake this year, leaving the Government open to legal challenges potentially worth millions of dollars.

First of all, thanks for this great add-on.
I'm currently in the process of replacing all my low-res album art with high-res versions. I'm doing this by placing a high-res jpg in each album folder, then doing '03. Remove artwork (delete from tag)', followed by '02 Embed artwork (copy from mask to tag)'. Now this seems to work just fine, but requires two passes. Is there any way of replacing existing artwork in a single pass?

About Dr. Giese
Dr. Richard F. Giese serves as Mount Union's 11th president, a position he has held since 2005 when he and his wife Sandra returned to Mount Union and the Alliance community they called home for 19 years.
For eight years, Dr. Giese served as president of Monmouth College in Illinois. Prior to holding that post, he served as a faculty member and in increasingly responsible administrative positions for Mount Union, including vice president for enrollment services and vice president for advancement. He was part of Mount Union's administrative leadership team at a time when Mount Union experienced unprecedented growth in enrollment and endowment.
During his years at Monmouth, President Giese guided the college through enrollment growth of nearly 50 percent while increasing the academic profile and improving the financial stability of the institution. He also planned and implemented Monmouth's largest capital campaign in its history and led a major general education curriculum review. In addition, numerous building projects were completed, including a library, athletic center, chapel, new residence halls and an outdoor athletic park. Following a successful tenure, both Dr. and Mrs. Giese were awarded honorary doctorate degrees from Monmouth in 2005.
Dr. Giese earned a bachelor of arts degree from Concordia College in 1971. He holds three advanced degrees including a master of divinity degree from Concordia Seminary in Exile (Seminex), a master of arts degree from Washington University and a doctoral degree from Kent State University. He also attended the Harvard Graduate School of Education and Harvard Seminar for New Presidents.
His first job in higher education was as a faculty member and basketball coach at Averett College in Danville, VA. In his second year at Averett (1978), he was selected as Coach of the Year in the Dixie Conference. In the summer of 1978, Giese came to Mount Union as a faculty member and head men's basketball and tennis coach.
Since returning to Mount Union, Dr. Giese has worked closely with faculty, staff and students to develop a plan for the future, featuring six strategic initiatives: develop a curriculum for the future, foster an engaging campus community, manage strategic enrollment growth, ensure the sustainable management of resources, enhance the diversity of our campus community and broaden the visibility and reputation of the institution.
Guided by these initiatives, Mount Union has experienced tremendous success. Growth in enrollment, the construction of state-of-the-art apartment-style residences for upperclassmen, the opening of the McPherson Academic and Athletic Complex, completion of the Gartner Welcome Center and Engineering and Business Building (including the newly landscaped Academic Mall), the closing of a very successful capital campaign, new programs and civil and mechanical engineering and the launch of the Physician Assistant Studies program are just a few of the many accomplishments the Mount Union has celebrated since Dr. Giese's return to campus in 2005. In addition, the institution completed the transition from Mount Union College to the University of Mount Union name and is currently planning for two new academic buildings on campus – a health and medical sciences facility and an addition to the performing arts center.
President Giese and his wife Sandra take advantage of countless opportunities to engage and support the students of the Mount Union community. From student events to music recitals, research presentations to special lectures, the Gieses make every effort to exemplify the University's commitment to an educational experience that values the personal approach. In fact, they often open their home to students. At the start of each academic year, all incoming freshmen attend dinners at the house as part of their LS 100 class. In addition, organizational leaders, student athletes, members of the Greek community and other student body representatives are welcomed to their home for an array of events that celebrate their successes.
Dr. Giese's commitment to the University of Mount Union is equaled by his dedication to leading within the Alliance and surrounding communities. He serves as vice president of the Alliance Economic Development Committee, member of the board of the United Way of Stark County and member of the Economic Development Committee of the Chamber of Commerce as well as a number of other community organizations. In addition, through a mutual agreement between himself and the Alliance Mayor Toni Middleton, the city and University have partnered to lead a community-wide sustainability movement.
Interest in the community is also shared by Sandra, a former elementary school principal in the Alliance City School system. A Mount Union graduate who also earned graduate degrees from both Kent State University and the University of Akron, she serves as vice president of the Alliance YMCA Board of Directors, a member of the boards of Rodman Library and The Alliance for Children and Family, a committee member of the adult career training assistance program (a subcommittee of the Greater Alliance Foundation) which provides financial assistance to adults for job training as a means of self improvement, and a member of Alliance's "One Book One Community" group. Mrs. Giese was also appointed by the mayor to serve as representative on the Board of the Early Childhood Education Alliance. She has taught at both the University of Akron and Monmouth College.
The Gieses' son Matthew is an Alliance High School graduate who also shares his parents' passion for community service. A physician who earned a bachelor's degree from Allegheny College and a medical degree from the Medical School of Toledo, he completed his residency in family practice at the University of Virginia. Today, he serves the Orange, VA community by assisting with medical needs in the area at a free clinic. He and his wife Bela, also a physician, live in Charlottsville, VA. They are the parents of two boys, Jack and Ben.

Well if any heel can fill them this heel can
If he´s taking the reins out of her hands I wonder if he´s also going to take the bit out of her mouth.
Kind of sexist isn´t it?
Big pantsuits to fill
There´s a cankle joke here somewhere.
If a Republican had said that there would be lady parts exploding all over the news media and internet.
I hang my head in shame over his nomination and approval by almost all of the Republican Senators to include the two who no longer represent me and mine.
big thighs to . . .
Is he saying Hillary has big feet?! How insulting!Somehow I see this metrosexual tottering around on high heels, so as to not offend the ladies! Gak! I hate this whole thing!
Why am I envisioning Kerry, dressed in drag, and trying to work with the likes of Achmedinejad?
Worst. Female. Impersonator. Ever.
Actually ´Effin´ you need to be very proficient at riding a BROOM!
Yes, big heels, indeed. Big. Fat. Rounded. Heels.
My mental picture of J Effen´ in heels is making my skin crawl even more than it usually does when I have to see him -ick!This nomination never should have gone thru. Treasonous gigolo.
Lurch will look strange in a mauve pants suit and heels.
I´m envisioning a monty python skit with horseface in a flower bonnet.
"Kerry thanked Clinton for her service and pledged to continue advocating for State Department staff,"......Right on, Kerry, she did such a wonderful job in Benghazi. /s
Can a man run the State Department? How is Kerry the person to answer that question? I hear the careerists at State applauded wildly when Kerry entered the building. What does that say?
If any metrosexual could fill Hillary´s flats and pantsuits while dimishing our world stature, I put my faith in John "Jen-jus Khan" Kerry.
I don´t think the family of Chris Stevens would agree............
Better get cracking on burning that jet fuel chasing happy hour through 24 time zones!
I am still waiting for Lurch to pay his boat tax...
I thought she liked sensible shoes. XD
Ha! Too easy: ...Yet ANOTHER, ´´heel,´´ steps into 0bama´s already frought with heels Administration!
I bet Hilly´s toes are excruciatingly happy she has retired. They won´t be required to be mashed into those pointy toe kitten heels every day any more. And from the constant swelling of her feet, I always wondered if she needed bigger shoes or a water pill. They looked downright painful.
Or... Small bra.
Lurch called himself a man. He´s lying already.

9 Famous Movie Villains Who Were Right All Along
The "villain":
In the theological-nightmare movie "Short Circuit" a military robot is granted a soul after being struck by a lightning bolt. Gaining sentience and running away, he is constantly pursued by the ruthless security-chief of the company that built him, Captain Skroeder-a man who will stop at nothing to destroy the so called "malfunctioning" machine.
Were ascots really ever standard Army issue?
Hold on a minute there:
Here's a riddle for you. What do you call a piece of electronics which stopped working the way it was supposed to? We'll give you a hint: it starts with an "m" and Eminem cuold make it rhyme with "mouth-puncturing." Johnny 5 was not only a malfunctioning piece of machinery for which Skroeder was responsible, he was a dangerous robot designed for killing and armed with one of the most powerful lasers in the world. If Skroeder could stop Johnny 5 and fix the broken, highly dangerous robot from wandering around a world full of life, the value of which he didn't understand, Skroeder would be a god damned hero.
But hey, it's not like laser cannons are dangerous or anything.
It's still unclear to us how, in a movie full of scientists and people not currently in mental institutions, it took Skroeder, a security officer, to disbelieve that souls can travel through lightning strikes. The funny thing is he sort of had a point there, because during the first days of Johnny's so called "sentience", he didn't even understand the concept of life and death. Do you understand the implications of that? A machine that can kill but doesn't know what killing means? We should have been rooting for someone to drop a bomb on this military murder-bot before it "disassembled" a bunch of toddlers.
In comparison, all Skroeder wanted was to quietly run the robot over with his truck. That's not so bad. But instead, Johnny got to go and live his life, and Skroeder loses, disgraced. A note to all of the special Captains of Robotics out there: Do not take any lessons from Short Circuit. If your brand new kill-bot gains sentience and wants to explore the world with its newfound emotions, do not let it.
"Hey Mitch, why did we install that 'kidnapping' protocol again?"
The "villain":
The Matrix bots freaking harvest people for energy, man! And use us as characters in their twisted robot versions of The Sims, where you know they amuse themselves by messing with our minds and reprogramming random people to do really stupid stuff, like make and watch additional Matrix movies.
"Don't forget our nefarious plan to convince people that Keanu Reeves is an actor."
Hold on a minute there:
Let's go back to the start. Some of this backstory is relayed in the films, some of it in The Animatrix, the series of shorts the creators released between films. Either way, this is canon in the Matrix universe.
In the beginning, the Machines were our slaves, used for every job imaginable -- and yes, someone probably was screwing them over -- before they got too smart for their own good and decided that serving us wasn't the most efficient use of their time. So we tried to mass-murder them. As a neat little compromise, the bots created a peaceful robot-utopia in the desert, which quickly became the world's leading economy. Our response was to mass-murder them some more (it was the future's hot new answer to all possible problems, including failing test scores among middle-schoolers).
Why is it wearing pants?
But suddenly, out of NOWHERE, a war broke out between us, and the machines won. They won and the humans lost, so after all of the years of being treated like slaves by the humans, it was time for the robots to get revenge. And what did the robots do to make us humans pay? They gave us a Paradise Virtual Reality. They realized that a world of both humans and robots could not exist peacefully, so they gave us a world where robots didn't exist and said "Live out your lives here, and we'll live out our lives in our world." Humans weren't living in the real world, but no one could tell the difference anyway, so it shouldn't have mattered.
"There's an orgy in our collective unconscious and everyone's invited!"
And to show our appreciation for one of the most even compromises in history, we began a campaign to murder every single last robot. That'll teach them to beat us in war and show mercy.
The "villain":
Oh, come on. Sauron is like the archetypal evil overlord. He's got massive armies of monsters. He has a flaming eyeball. He has a helmet made of spikes, people, come on. And, he did... you know, he did all of those... things. And...
Sauron, seen here evilly defending his home from an invading army.
Hold on a minute there:
And what exactly? Please tell us, because throughout the entire 2000-hour run of the Jackson trilogy, we couldn't find a single reason why everyone demonized Sauron like he was a debt-collecting pedophile. Yes, he was building an army to advance on Middle Earth. But who was in that army? What were they fighting for?
This was a world where Orcs were used as target practice among elvish communities. The elves loved that shit. Sauron put a stop to that by offering all the underprivileged creatures a place in his non-race-exclusive army (the only nonsegregated force in Middle Earth other than the Fellowship), with promises of their own country in the future. After what he did for the orcs and the goblins, Sauron was just some towering, mace-wielding folk hero.
"Let freedom ring! Also, let's eat some man-flesh."
Of course the humans and elves couldn't have that, because if orcs moved-in next door to them, their houses' property value would go down. After all, these creatures are dark and smelly and have weird voices. They must be murdered on sight.
Above: Segregation?
We hear a lot about freedom, and the free peoples of Middle Earth standing up to Mordor. What do we mean by "free?" They're certainly not fighting for Democracy -- each kingdom is a monarchy where the people have no say over what the leader does as long as that leader possesses the right genes. And overwhelmingly it seems like what those leaders like to do is shit on the Orcs, and the countless other minorities who Sauron was able to recruit onto his side.
What you were seeing in these films was not an unprovoked act of aggression, undertaken just for the hell of it. You were seeing generations of pent-up frustration by oppressed minorities, harnessed by a leader they could get behind. What Sauron did was nothing more than try to cut out a piece of that Middle Earth dream for himself and his followers, and find land that doesn't require them to live under a continuously erupting volcano.
On the plus side, it isn't Oklahoma.
His methods were violent and there were excesses -- as you see in every revolution. But if Middle Earth doesn't take a moment to understand why Sauron was able to draw tens of thousands of disenfranchised individuals to his cause, then they're destined to fight the same war all over again, as soon as the next Sauron shows up.

Cleveland, Ohio Wednesday, January 4, 2012
President Obama announced at a speech in Ohio that he will make a recess appointment and place Richard Cordray in the position of Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Last month, Senate Republicans did not allow his nomination to move forward.
This is the agency that was formed as part of the Dodd-Frank financial overhaul legislation.
The President's remarks took place at Shaker Heights High School in Ohio.
Ohio is set to hold its primary March 6 and the President's visit will mark his 16th trip to the state. He traveled to Ohio in September to garner support for his jobs plan.
The speech is the president's first since returning from a more than week-long vacation in Hawaii for the holidays.

Brilliant light yellow-straw color with an open aroma reminiscent of fresh nectarine and spicy apple pie - classic varietal characteristics for Chardonnay from cool climate growing areas. Barrel fermentation in French oak coupled with full malolactic conversion has yielded a multi-faceted wine, adding aromas and flavors of fresh toast, cream and honey to the primary fruit. Modest acidity and medium-full body help drive an overall impression of richness in the lingering finish.

Best Answer
The iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S dock adaptors will allow the iPod Nano (6th Generation) to fit in, but it is slightly snug on the back. The clip on the back of the Nano presses slightly on the rear of the dock adaptor. Ive been using the iPhone 4 dock adaptor in a Bose Sound Dock along with the iPod Nano (6th Generation) for a few months and have not had any issues with it, it is snug but not so much as to have me worried that anything will break.

- Asked by Robert B from Rooty Hill

Best Answerthis is for devices you may already own or purchase that play, charge, etc. your ipod nano the device should be shaped the same way as this adapter and you fit it in and makes it easier to plug in the nano because the charger is on side of this model and is centered on most devices and classic ipods. It is for connivence so every time you go to plug in the ipod you dont have to try and line it up which could also result in damage to your ipod or device.

do these offset hole adaptors come with the hole on each side for front or back facing in the dock?
The nano has the female docking offset from center on the bottom of the ipod. the adapter is offset to the right when facing the front of the docking station. I need the adaptor with the offset hole on the left side when facing front so the ipod window will be facing front when its docked. otherwise the ipod nano is backwards and the screen does not face the front of the memorex docking station. If i buy the 3 pack do they all have different offset as positioned with the 2 clip on attachments on the bottom front. in another way to explain it i have a #18 adapter and the hole is like the photo positioned on the right, i need one with the hole positioned on the left. How can I get this part?

World Class ReliabilityPros: The OS is feature rich. You control whatever you want. One good feature is that the lights on the device will always let you know if you have up-link to the internet or not. In other words, if your modem is not getting internet signal, the lights will be off on the VoIP line. We use the router on the device to provide DCHP to our Buffalo N wireless router. Cons: None Other Thoughts: These devices are very reliable and always ready for action. Phone calls are always crystal clear, just like a land line. Don't believe the hype on other reviews. If you set the perimeters in the settings of the device properly, the device will work like a charm. If you mess the settings up, good luck... Did you find this review helpful? |
Nice ATAPros: Does the job well. Nice build quality. Lots of manual customization options (though this could be a CON, depends how you look at it). Tons of resources online on getting this to work. Cons: When placing calls from with line1 or SIP phone to PSTN, echo may be present for the local party (the remote party seems fine). Took quite a bit of fine tuning to get it to a reasonable level where it doesn't bother me. Other Thoughts: Has worked well so far, no reboots, no crashes. Does get a little warm, but should not be a problem. I'm running this with Asterisk setup. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Don't BUY.Pros: Easy configuration Cons: you call a cell phone or an automated machine Did you find this review helpful? |
Poor router performancePros: Works well (for ATA purpose) once you have upgraded the firmware. Cons: Extremly poor router Other Thoughts: Do not buy this item if you want to use it as a router. Extremly poor performances. My 20Mbps connection drop to 7 Mbps when i connect it to my computer, and the SPA keep rebooting as soon as it's stressed a bit (if you use Torrents client for example). Did you find this review helpful? |
Easy VOIP!Pros: Easy VOIP set-up, even for someone inexperienced. Cons: Requires connection to a computer to set it up. However, after configuring it, it can be disconnected from the computer. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
SPA3102Pros: Small device, works perfectly with my 3cx IP PBX. Cons: Doesn't always detect the other party hanging up, but not a big deal, as you can always set a timeout for when it doesn't detect any voices on the line. Other Thoughts: Pretty straightforward to setup, just take it one setting at a time :). Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great concept/ Bad unitPros: Excellent features. The fact that I could use my land line and route VOIP calls was the key factor when I considered buying the SPA 3102. Cons: When it arrived, I powered up my unit, http in, change the default IP so that it matches my network IP range, set it to static IP,disabled the DHCP server, applied changes and the unit power cycled. And that's it. That's where it ended for me. Other Thoughts: It was so sad when I had to request an RMA for this unit. Manufacturer Response: 3 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great Cheap PTSN GatewayPros: Very small and simple to wire up, and a huge amount of resources online for getting this to work with Asterisk, and simple to modify to use with other PBX systems. Good sound quality and reliable on the network. Helps me filter out annoyances even without a PBX. Cons: The included documentation isn't detailed enough for any real use out of the box, but a little bit of googling helps with that. No mention in the documentation on how to reset the device if you lock yourself out. Other Thoughts: The unit does get warm depending on the environment. This unit also is a re-branded Sipura device but outside of the name, online documentation matches for both devices and between the two brand names it creates a good documentation base. All in all, it is well worth the purchase. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Works as expectedPros: Solid and reliable with tons of features. In fact, the feature set can be a bit bewildering. Cons: The only con is the price if what you really want is something akin to the Linksys PAP2T. For a basic VOIP ATA adapter, this unit is a bit of an overkill. Other Thoughts: I use this for connecting a fax machine to a VOIP service. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
nicePros: It has way way too many features Cons: O existing documentation on all those features. There is like a minor getting started pdf document with it, but it in no way even starts to scratch the hundred or so settings, let alone the more advance stuff. There is nothing on linksys web site. You will have to google for bits and pieces of information on how to do things. Most I believe can be figured out however. 5 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Duck fat imparts a marvelous richness to everything from pan-fried potatoes to baked goods. Anything cooked with it just seems like a luxury, an indulgence. Whenever I visit my friend in Portland, Maine, we make a point of eating at a restaurant named for this luscious lipid. The menu is a paean to foods prepared with the eponymous ingredient, and we never fail to eat our fill of the excellent Belgian-style fries.
Cooking with duck fat can be daunting, but the effort is worthwhile. You can buy it from a specialty store or render your own at home. The first time I roasted a pair of whole ducks I was amazed by the amount of subcutaneous fat covering the breasts, which were truly well endowed.
You'll need a large supply of duck fat to make Confit Duck Legs, a recipe calling for 35 ounces. Confit cookery requires that the duck be completely immersed in molten fat. When the dish cools the fat solidifies, preserving the flesh. This yields succulent duck with hints of garlic, nutmeg and thyme. The legs are great straight but best when crowning a cassoulet.
