Rocks & Monastery Spotting
This is a rocky place.lol! Kidding aside,Meteora is place where you can see those beautiful,tall,huge rocks where a monastery is build on top of it.Climbing up is fantastic though a little tiring because of those hundreds of steps.Not all the monasteries are open to the public,just some,most famous is GRAND METEORON MONASTERY.Women needs to wear a long skirt,but if you are not wrap-around-skirts are available in the entrance for free! You can inside the old things that they had used before,there is also a small museum inside featuring the uniforms of the soldiers then.

Monasteries on rocky outcrops!
A good reply from the previous poster!
Visit the monasteries at Meteora! They are amazing!
Yes, they are being used for religious purposes still but you can visit some of them.
I looked around two of them over 5 hours (including the drive betweeen those two and the climbing up and down) and I wished that I could have seen some of the others. I would have liked to stay overnight.
The Hotel Meteora would have been my choice. There are lots of black & white photos of the monasteries and the people around them. My favourite was of the priest being placed in a net so that he could be winched up to the top of the rocky outcrop.
Of course, you don't need to use the net ----there are lots of steps up to them. If you have walking problems, this may be a challenge.
Would I return there again? Yes! -
Icon Museum In Kalambaka
Most people traveling to Meteora stop off in Kalambaka before heading up to the monasteries. If you're interested in Eastern Orthodox religion, local art, and souveniers, I recommend stopping off at the Icon Musuem. Here you can view paintings of religious icons from the Easterm Orthodox Church. If you're lucky, you might even get to see a real artist working on one of these icons.
The museum also contains one of the largest gift shops in Greece. You can buy Icons of all sizes, jewelry, pottery, pins, statues, post cards, just about any souvenier you can imagine. Be warned though, the prices there are ridiculously high, so you might not be able to buy much! The only thing I bought was a few post cards, everything else was just too damn expensive.
To me, it wasn't anything special. The actual museum is really small, just a few paintings on the wall, and it can get really crowded in the museum and the store. There's also no guarantee that you'll get to see an artist at work. The only possitive thing is that the museum is free of charge. If you're interested in local art though, it's worth checking out.- Museum Visits

The Monasteries
The big attractions of the Meteora area are the 14th Century monasteries built on top of the high rock cliffs. Originally there were 20 monasteries, but only 16 remain. They are still in use, although the St. Nikolas monastery only has one monk in residence. The monks used to be hauled up to the monasteries in a basket suspended by ropes, but they later put in stairs. (Now the monks have a cable car and don't need to climb up, but tourists have to use the stairs.)
The earliest hermits came here in about the 11th Century and lived in caves in the rocks. After the monasteries were built, monks would occasionally spend solitary time in cells in the caves. Scaffolding is still visible in some of the caves.
The frescoes in St. Nikolas were painted by a disciple of El Greco. The Grand Meteora monastery is the oldest one, but it is hard to get to. The Holy Trinity monastery appeared in the James Bond film, "For Your Eyes Only.
I think all of the monasteries can be visited, although we only stopped at 2 of them. Our group visited the Varlaam monastery, but there were about 120 stairs up from the parking lot so I decided to enjoy the scenery from down below.
I was able to go into the St. Stephen convent because it wasn't nearly as difficult. Thirty sisters live there, from age 30 to 70s. They have a small museum on the premises, with 6th Century parchment manuscripts, silver book covers, a chair with mother of pearl inlay, ikons, etc. Lovely.

Great Meteoron and Great barrel
This barrel is obviously very old. Instead of being iron-bound like modern barrels, it is hoped by logs that have been cut in crooked trees and have already the required shape. The same applied to the building of ships. Crooked trees were selected young and were watched for years before they reached the right size.

Great Meteoron, the hauling machine
In the old days, monks, visitors and supplying were hauled inside the monastery in a wicker basket. One or several monks hauled the rope by man's strength. Later, the hauling was done by a petrol powered engine. The Great Meteoron has on of these engine on display. That does not look very safe but fortunately, visitors can now access by a pedestrian bridge (see previous photo)

Great Meteoron
The Great Meteoron Monastery (Megalo Meteoro), also known as Monastery of the Transfiguration, is the main monastery of the Meteora complex. It was founded by the monk Athanasius Koinovitis in the mid-fourteenth century.
However the current structures were built by monks from Mount Athos in the 16th century.- Religious Travel

Kastraki village
Kastraki is located at the west section of the Meteora region, amphitheatrically built in between the huge rocks and constitutes one of the municipal town districts. Its history is fading in the passing of time.
At the eastern part high up, under the rocks you admire the simplicity of the picturesque quarter and further up the rock of Adrachti small but very impressive due to its shape and his erection of the ground. -
Cathedral church of Saint Vissarion
The town's Cathedral of Saint Vissarion is built to honour the local Saint, Agios Vissarios, who was the Bishop of Larissa and the founder of the Dousico's monastery. The church's religious paintings are made by agiografhos Ioannis Albanis.
It's a modern church. Its construction lasted 30 years from 1954 till 1984.

Agios Stefanos
Agios Stefanos monastery is easily accessed through a road and was first built in the15th century and was rebuilt in the 16th century. The Katholikon of the monastery is dedicated to St. Haralambus and was built in the 19th century by the monk Ambrosios.

Agia Triada
Agia Triada (Holy Tninity) was first built in 1362 and rebuilt and expanded in 1475. The brother priests Antonios and Nicolaos decorated its walls in 1741, but the wall paintings inside the carved rock were painted in 1682.
It offers the most spectacular view of Kalambaka, Penios River, and the Pindos mountains beyond. It is also the least visited of the Meteora monasteries thanks to the number of steps a visitor has to climb.

Katholikon in Roussanos
The Katholikon is dedicated to the Transfiguration of Christ but honored to St. Barbara. The church is little and elegant. Because of the peculiarity of the rock the sanctuary looks to the north instead of looking to the east according to custom. It is in the Athonite type.
It belongs to the cruciform distyle type with a dome in the centre and two conches (for the chanters) on the right and on the left side. The dome is polygonal, it bears a single-lobed window on each side and it dominates due to its height. The narthex is covered by a vault and it is fully decorated with well maintained Byzantine frescoes.

Roussanou Monastery was founded in 1545 by Joasaph and Maximos, two brothers who built it on the ruins of an even older church. It is possible that it was named after an old ascetic called Rousanos who had lived on the rock. According to another theory it was named after two Russian monks who built it. I like this theory best, ha-ha!
The Roussanou monastery is dedicated to the "Transformation of the Christ" and also to St. Barbara. The church contains outstanding wall paintings, wood iconostasis, panel icons and icon stands.
The monastery covers the entire terrace of a long-narrow rock and it is accessed by several steps and two bridges. The rock, on the top of which the monastery is built, is vertical, steep and narrow. Visitors are impressed when they see it from a distance.

Agios Nikolaos Anapafssas
Monastery of Agios Nikolaos Anapafsas was built in the 16th Century by Dionysious, the Metropolitan of Larissa and named after an old Patron. The Katholikon is decorated in wall paintings by the renowned Cretan Iconographer Theophanis Bathas-Strelitzas.
The rock, on the top of which the monastery is built, has a very limited surface. This fact affected the construction of the buildings of the monastery that could not extend. Therefore the only solution was to erect buildings in height. The monastery has three floors.

Definitions for SAMsæm
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word SAM
Princeton's WordNet

a guided missile fired from land or shipboard against an airborne target
a Surface to Air Missile.
Origin: [acronym]
The awarded to the All-Ireland GAA football winning team.
Origin: Possibly from Uncle Sam
Webster Dictionary
Origin: [AS. same. See Same, a.]
In the Book of Mormon, Sam was the third son of Lehi, and elder brother to the prophet Nephi. Early in the Book of Mormon narrative, Nephi confided in Sam. Lehi saw Sam in his vision of the tree of life, noting that he ate the precious fruit, symbolizing the righteousness of Sam, and that he would be saved. Upon the death of Lehi, Sam followed his brother Nephi in the establishment of the Nephites. Among LDS linguists, the leading theory of the origin of the name "Sam" is that it is most likely a Hebrew dialectal form of "Shem".

Surveys from Pew and other organizations show non-belief as the fastest growing "religious group" (for lack of a better term) in the United States.
Some are simply unconcerned about religious. But many are self-professed atheists.
However, many of these atheists have only professed their non-belief to a select few, and some haven't told anyone at all.
This show deals with atheists who aren't "out." What are the reasons for remaining silent? What are the consequences of going public? And how is the culture shifting to perhaps make it easier for the non-theist to step out of the shadows.

4 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornstarch
1 quart peanut oil for frying
8 chicken tenders
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
12 slices bacon
8 thin slices Cheddar cheese
8 plain frozen waffles
Mercy! Good eatin'! I served with french fried sweet potatoes dusted with sugar and cinnamon; creamy coleslaw with some chopped jalepenos, celery seed and green onion. Might want to have an antacid around....
Way too much breading left over. I was reluctant to put all that cayenne pepper in for fear it would be too spicy, but it was good. Top waffle cold (frozen) and bottom waffle soggy. Chicken tasted great.
49 Ratings
This is a very good recipe, especially the chicken coating. I put buffalo sauce on the chicken and omitted the horseradish. Was excellent.
This recipe is good.
This is actually pretty darn good. I even made my own waffles, though I think store bought ones would be just as good (and easier). The sweetness of the maple syrup contrasts really well with the spicy chicken. I will definitely make it again.
5 stars plus. This is a very different, yet incredibly awesome recipe, and it falls under the category of so odd that it has to be good. The sauce is what intrigued me about this one. It is absolutely tremendous. DO NOT change this recipe at all, or skimp and buy el cheapo chicken strips, even if you think they are good. Make this recipe exactly how it says to make it, with the exception of the waffles. Make fresh waffles. Frozen waffles have no flavor, and if you get a nice, sweet waffle mix, the contrast between the sweetness of the waffles and the sauce, and the saltiness of the bacon along with the heat of the chicken is an awesome combination. I have made this for many many groups of friends, and everyone says it is absolutely delicious, and wonderfully unique. If you get complaints on this one, you made it wrong.
awesome flavor.

Hi there,
I just want to connect DisplayPort on my T400s to HDMI port on HDTV. I am thinking about the following two methods but I am not so sure if either of them works out:
1) Using a Displayport-to-HDMI converter (like this one http://www.startech.com/item/DP2HDMI-DisplayPort-t
2) Directly using a DisplayPort/male-HDMI/male cable (like this one http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id
Do you think they both work?
By the way, I am fully aware that by using the above connection, if it works, there is only video but audio. In order to get the audio, can I use this cable http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Hi LittleBear,
Either of the video cables (1) or (2) will work. In general, the fewer connections you have to make, the fewer places for signal quality to be degraded. So I'd prefer (2).
The HDTVs I've seen have dual RCA inputs for analog stereo audio. So the second audio cable you listed, the one that goes from a stereo 3.5mm plug to dual RCA plugs, is the way to go.
Thanks for doing your research and realizing that you need both video and audio cables.
Good luck!
Many thanks, fmyhr. I already ordered the cables.
All the best.
I am very happy about my T400s except the audio problem with displayport. I tried so many cables before finding this thread! My question is that even if you use two cables for video and audio (displayport and analog), most TV's do not allow dual source at the same time. I have an LG HDTV (LD 450), with all the necessary ports, but I get to choose either an HDMI input OR an analog input from VGA or RCA. Do you know how to fix this?
Hi arashet,
Welcome to the Lenovo forum. Glad that you're (mostly) enjoying your excellent T400s.
LG's 32LD450 support page has links for product specifications and manuals. Unfortunately the link for the English manual isn't working for me at the moment -- maybe you could do the world a favor and complain to LG?
Google found a copy of the manual here:
From p.19 of the manual, it appears that if you connect video to HDMI/DVI IN 1 and audio to AUDIO IN (RGB/DVI), you should be able to get simultaneous video and audio when selecting the HDMI1 input (manual p.70). The analog audio cable you'll need is the first type that LittleBear pointed to, with 3.5mm stereo headphone jacks on both ends, like this one:
Best regards,
12-15-2010 07:01 PM - edited 12-15-2010 07:02 PM
Thank you Frank. But the TV only can choose one input at a time, either hdmi or VGA. Anyway, I ultimately had to give up on HDMI and go on with the old VGA cable with an extra 3.5 audio cable: pretty ugly looking stuff! I am still wondering why should one of the latest T-series Lenovo models lack such a simple thing as audio output on displayport, while it costs a fortune and is more expensive than most similar notebooks in the market. Next time I will keep my eyes open when buying a notebook!
If you:
You still get no audio?

Paper Chase
A 7-kDa region of the bacteriophage T7 gene 4 protein is required for primase but not for helicase activity.
Department of Biological Chemistry, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.
Bacteriophage T7 gene 4 protein, purified from phage-infected cells, consists of a mixture of 56- and 63-kDa species that provides helicase and primase activities required for T7 DNA replication. The 56-kDa species has been purified independently of the colinear 63-kDa species. Like a mixture of the two proteins, the 56-kDa protein binds single-stranded DNA in the presence of dTTP, catalyzes DNA-dependent hydrolysis of dTTP, and has helicase activity. In contrast to the mixture, the 56-kDa protein cannot catalyze template-dependent RNA primer synthesis. In the absence of a DNA template, both the 56-kDa protein and the mixture of the two species synthesize low levels of diribonucleotide. A putative "zinc finger" present near the amino terminus of the 63-kDa protein but absent from the 56-kDa protein may play a major role in the recognition of primase sites in the template.

Raw onions and garlic can taste unpleasantly acrid in a slowcooked dish. Onion and garlic powders are more reliable.

Wake up, wake up.
This is no hallucination
This is what we have become
This is what dreams are made of
Go look in the mirror
Wake up, wake up.
This is no hallucination
Do we still exist?
I can't see my face
Or are we just not here?
I can't see my face.
Wake up, wake up.
This is no hallucination
This is what we have become
This is now what dreams are made of
Wake up, wake up
Come on, come on you've got to wake the fuck up
Wake up, wake up
This is more than you bargained for
It took so long so you ate some more
You did too much man, you did too much!
Wake up, wake up!
Morgan High yesh yesh it is
sucide silence is tottally, the wickedest band EVER !!1
Fucking Awesome (*the best*).
I'm pretty sure she ODed on Shrooms... That's what I have Bbeen told.
hahaha. so f**king lyrics ,.. haha.
Fucking beautiful ^^ love it <3.
Damn..This song fits for people who didn't waking up for their lives or going to work or some retarded kids who took crystal meth..It's living awesome!
good lyrik ...
full volume...
i got an 'ear-bleed' O_O.
this ain't my favorite song but it always makes me want to throw things around.
awesome song!
this is a bad song lol
awesome song
nice lyrics...............
Brittnei no it isn't. It's brutal
YEs gr8 song indeed, I was looking at 100 fav songs on my iPod and none of the songs r metal so ya that really pissed me off, the heaviest song was guns m roses knocking on heavens doors, I dont get y justt 1 metal song was in there , really pissed me off
LOOOOOOL Holy moley... This has been the most priceless thing I've ever had the honour of reading. You guys are fuuuuunnyyyy. (:
Suicide Silence, WOOO!
Hum. This is one of the only songs i like my SS. It is awesome. And seriously, i hate it when ppl critize this. "Oh, you can't understand what theyre saying!" Stfu, i love this
I would imagine this song is about mushrooms, I seem to remember hearing something about them being on mushrooms at some point while recording this because they stayed at my tattoo artists house, I don't remember if I heard it on an interview or from
him but I think the lyrics are pretty self explainitory here. Oh and Alex is a good drummer but most metal drummers do blast beats on their left hand because most people are right handed. It would be pretty stupid to cross your hands over for the ride, not to mention euro blasts would be a lot harder to start on your left hand on the hi hat. No point in learning them two different ways for no logistical benifit.
Oh woah, I love this song so much, I like it even more when I know the lyrics ^ ^ x
i hate people who complain. " why do you like this? you cant even hear what theyre saying." thats the point of music like this. so shut the f*** up. lyrics are great here, i love the guitar. saw them live and got a black eye.
hahaha suicide silence is f..... amazing! alex is fucking amazing at drums. in the video you can see him doing fast snare hits with his left hand! but anyway yeah its about drug whoever the fuck is saying its not...the band says it is, if you were so caught up in looking for a deeper meaning youd realize metal is blunt...theyre are no deeper meanings. its just agressive, fast pace, energy ment to entertain the crowd of people that werent satisfied with how hard other music is. plain and simple. and whoever said this was bad music is a moron...the lyrics are so easy to understand. true i looked them up, but i couldnt make out maybe one line. if you actually think this is hard to understand listen to the low screams of job for a cowboy. most of the time theyre exhaled pig squels.
The lyrics can easily be understood you don't need to look them up, just listen more closely, perhaps even LISTEN TO THE SONG. I dunno.
Side note: This would be possibly one of the harder ones to understand I guess, because they were all on shrooms.
^@%#$! bad ass song!!! all you faggots that hate on suicide silence u can go jump the fuck off the empire state buildn!!! no one gives a fuck!!!! BLAST FOR THE DEVIL!!!!
@#$%^ all of you,who seriously gives a sh*t what its about listen to it and stop whining about other people and the meaning.P*ssies man.
If anyone really understood the song they would know its about a bad drug trip and everything went wrong and he is trying to wake himself up
umm honestly i dont see how yall listen to this music i mean ya sure it has good instrumentals but you cant even understand what they are saying without looking up the lyrics whats the point in that
I don't think any of us were there.....so uh why fight about it. isn't that the magic of music
i like this song and music video is hot sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yay
it's either about acid or shrooms . there might be deeper meaning, but honestly it's mainly about drugs . seriously, idiots, lucker said so himself . quit arguing, i'm fucking right .
music is about how you yourself interpet(prolly spelled wrong haha) it.... but yes... it is a known fact straight from the bands mouth its about tripping... so quit arguing... lol
oh my god you have ate to much means you bit off more than you can chew. it has nothing to do with drugs.. maybe a little ok maybe an acid trip
TO everyone arguing over the meaning of the song, yes you can interpret it as your own, but lucker said himself its about drugs so stop the petty arguing and enjoy the music.
kk seriously why are u arguing when the band have already said its about a drug trip on there vid where they show them making the movie
look at on youtube =]
lol it has nothin to do with trippin on nething...its about waking the f'ck up and realizing whats goin on around you
WTF dude this song is just about a hardcore drug trip .... so its not really something to put that much fricking thought behind
This song is saying that while things are happening around you, you need to wake up and see whats going on. You havent paid attention to the consequences of your actions and now that they are happening you have no idea what going on, so you you need to wake up and when you face reality you should realize that 'this is no hallucination'
I think its an acid trip, not mushrooms.
"I can't see my face",
when i've had trips, pretty much everytime i've seen
my own face melt away.
"it took so long so you ate some more"
Acid also takes about 2 hours to peak and its eaten.
...but honestly, if your tripping and you have some fuck screaming in your face, of course its gunna be a bad trip.
loooooooool your all stupid xD
song is amazing, plain and simple, f*ck what its about and f*ck drug knowelege.
good song, end of story ^^
if any of you had bothered to watch the video of them making the film clip you would know it was about it was about "an organic mushroom/psychedelic mushroom trip" as said so by mitch himself.
Weed is not better than shrooms.
and just because any retard can get weed doesnt mean there is more.
Drugs are amazing in general, as well as suicide silence.
so wake the f'ck up moron.
Who gives a flying fuck??!!
Suicide Silence made the song so it's a fuckin sweet song!!!
and weed is betta than shrooms....
theres more of it lol
its about DMT. thats indeed what dreams are made of. some very very very crazy shit.
That's because it is about shrooms. He's saying that, the trip didn't start for a while so he took some more shrooms then he took to many.
haha alot of people think that its shrooms cause of the line "it took so long so you ate some more" after drug usage you get the munchies after about 2-3 hours dependin on how strong whatever you take is, amazing song though, deffinately one to freak you out when your mashed outta your head though
I f*cking love this song. Its kinda like something that happened to me at a party in calidonia. Hallucinogens can mess someone up. TRUST ME MAN!
god damn you guys!!!
songs are ment to be taken as your own!!
it could be very deep being a f.ck up in life and need to realize you need to stop whatever it is... or it could be simply some shroomin...
this song made me think of writing a poem bout a 5year old boy walking in on his mom while she lay dead from over dose and keeps asking to wake up. my numbers 210-550-4483 if u want to hear how the story starts and ends
Don't you just love when people get angry at other people for thinking a song is about drugs? oh boy.... that's the greatest. It's definitely not drugs as you can tell...??? seriously?
I think it's funny how everyone thinks it's automatically shrooms because of the "so you ate some more" line. That could mean any number of hallucinagenic drugs taken orally. Besides, I'm willng to bet this song has deeper meaning than just a god damned drug overdose... Think about it.
F.ck you all.
Suicide Silence is epic. They way more talented than you.
Shrooooooooms man, thats all.
dont over analyze the music because it sounds heavy...
it's basically about waking up and realizing it isn't a game. well, as far as i've noticed, anywayz :/
people think it's about a damn acid trip cause the vid is trippy, that's just how suicide silence's vids are. "this is no halucination"? duh maybe you should wake up, wake up >:)
"This is more than you bargained for
It took so long so you ate some more
You did too much man, you did too much!"
didnt wait long enough for his shrooms to kick in. ate some more. tripped to hell.
i do believe this song is about vaginal diseases. mmhm. i can relate to this song.
i think this song is about someone who cannot wake up, wake up. and he needs to wake up, wake up.
leerroooooooooooyyyy!!! jeennnnnnnkkiiiiiiiiiiiiinnsss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think it's about two guys sitting down and watching teletubbies, and it explains how much they want tubby custard ! :)
i know i'm right so shut the fuck up.
i love suicide silence (:
adore my bf for introducing them to mee =)
its about f$@#n lsd!!! but its whatever you want it to be haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw
dude this is the sickest song ever
it makes me realize how much i love drugs
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh drugs
yeah some of you are #$@%. its about two people trippin shrooms. one of them wasnt feeling what they ate, so they ate more.
This track HAS NOTHING to do with psychedelics at all. It's simply talking about the everyday world, or it could imply drug overdose. Possibly off of opiates or some other kind of respiratory depressant.
It took too long so you ate some more...
Sounds like one of my friends did that too XD
i belive its actually about acid or lsd...(yes there the same thing i know)and yes i know basicly its the same things as shrooms....this actually means a bit to me cause i have a friend who became scitzofrenic (dont know how to spell it) from a bad trip and he litteraly will never "wake up" with out his meds
Lol, I think it's about eating shrooms or something. They talk about it taking so long to work, so they ate more.
Also, the hallucinations, "are we really here?", etc. seems like a shroom trip.
Only the band knows what it's truly about. But before I read any of your comments, I got the impression it was about somebody who fried their brain. For one it goes with other songs in the album such as "Lifted" for example.. But naw, it definitely has to do with some psychedelic drug. The lyrics are very self explanatory and make sense. "It took so long so you ate some more." meaning it took to long to kick in so he ate some more, and then it ended up being too much, and now he's perma fried..
i believe this song is about penises. I COULD be wrong but i really, really think this song is about hard, erect, long, awesome penises.
its about where people hve came from and where we hve ended up. it is saying we hve to wake tha fuck up and right our wrongs
wtf this has no fucking meaning except that we all live in a fucked up world and to realize that is to wake up. Dont be a good little sheep and do what everyone else does. live for your own fucking sorry ass piece of shit self...
im gonna say it is about modern day society put to the metaphore of a bad shroom trip- but hey thats just me
Its not about a bad shrooms trip. Its about how the people in America need to Wake up and do something about our government.
Go Mushrooms, Woooooh
i'd say noone really knows what the song is about unless you would ask the band, for some reason i doubt its about a mushroom trip...
This song is about how complacent and apathetic our society has become (especially with the youth of California, where SS is from). Nobody cares about ANYTHING any more. and probably also about a shroom trip. man, shrooms are so cool. brb dropping out of college to do some more drugs!
This is now my alarm ringtone. Lol. www.myspace.com/showmecold for my homo techno.
song's about a bad mushroom trip

The closing of BCT leaves a hole in the city's venue infrastructure that you could drive a large band through, and it remains to be seen whether a venue of comparable size -- aside from the shabby former supermarket cattle-call of the International Ballroom -- will open to fill it. In the meantime, you may have noticed that European Tavern and Gardens has been working overtime to pick up the slack.
On the other end of the size spectrum, you've no doubt also noticed that Epstein's has finally closed its doors. After several weeks of running borderline hysterical ads in Public News ("Epstein's is for sale. Call for details!"), the much-loved hangout succumbed and merged its equipment and staff with that of sister club Harvey's, which'll be operating on an expanded schedule. The straw that broke the camel's back? A call from the city Health Department, which wanted to come out and inspect the place. Epstein's management estimated that at least $1,000 was needed to bring the place up to snuff, and rather than make the investment, they decided to go ahead and fold. Just hope the Health Department folks don't go calling on Harvey's any time soon.
The world may not know Houston as a music town yet, but the video kudos just keep coming. Last week's WorldFest-Houston film festival jury awarded a Gold Medal in the category of Music Video: New Artist to Sat--Smooth's clip for the "Mamma Never Told Me" single. R. Scott Budge directed for Sovereign Films, and Doug King, also responsible for the groundbreaking Geto Boys clip for "Mind Playing Tricks on Me," produced.
Local Stuff... I try to be timely, but it doesn't always work out that way. Must have been three weeks ago that the Press ran a favorable review of Atomic Opera's For Madmen Only, but as it happens, the disk's street date isn't until May 10. You could go digging through back issues (yeah, right), or you could just show up at Fitzgerald's Thursday night, May 5, when Atomic Opera themselves jump the gun with a CD release/celebration show. AO's employers at Giant Records recently mailed me a cassette of the band's vid for the "Justice" single, and it's growing on me. I know there must be a quality metal crowd somewhere in Houston, and why you're not showing up for these guys is beyond me.
The Hadden Sayers Band sets an, er, odd tone for the weekend when it opens a free show for Kansas (if all we are is dust in the wind, why haven't these people blown away by now?) at FridayFest in Old Market Square, and things aren't likely to get any less strange with Dyn@mutt, Lozenge and Woody's Jukebox lined up to open for Pop Defect at Harvey's. The Blunt Family, Face Down and Backyard Epics play Goat's Head Soup, also Friday, and big-breast cover-art boys Beef Masters crowd into Laveau's. Manhole -- MIA these last months while polishing off a CD and teaching yet another new drummer all the songs -- headlines an it's-been-too-long show at Fitzgerald's with Deth Kultur BBQ. Over at the Abyss, Closet Bulgarians are plugging the release of their self-titled four-song cassette, a rough, AOR rock affair with moody vocals.
Saturday night looks slower than usual on the local front, but you can catch Stratus' jazzy fusion at the Ale House, and Beat Temple will celebrate the release of a six-song cassette called Lemon and Honey at the Pig Live.
Sunday, Man or God kicks off at least two months of Sunday night rock at the Blue Iguana with the aural equivalent of a jackboot. Also Sunday is an opportunity to benefit Bleachbath, who took a $5,000 equipment loss about a month back when some schmuck(s) decided to rip off the band's rehearsal space. Path, Clover, Rose Bud, Man or God, Resin Day, Laughing Boy, Philo Beddo, David Rice, Smile and Beef Masters are lined up to play Goat's Head Soup. One of the most common complaints I hear in this town is that the bands don't come out to support each other often enough. This is a better opportunity than most to start turning that around.
King's X returns to Houston for a showcase at the Tower on Tuesday the 10th, and Wednesday marks the kickoff of four days of Beans Barton and the Bi-Peds' "Kitchens of the Karankawas III," a rock/performance/ kitchen-sink hybrid running through the 14th at European Tavern and Gardens.

NWAR: Trench Warfare
Detective Nwar gets his hands dirty for a political campaign.
4.44 / 5.00 3,179 ViewsThe portal is being flooded! What is Wade's reaction? He can only watch as it's over run by flash files....
I don't understand why people would submit stuff like this, it is absolutely pointless! I'm sorry, maybe you'd think I'm mean but I believe this is compensation for WASTING MY TIME! Nothing impressive about your animation, even your music is annoying. I'm sorry, but your audience I believe (as I am also part of your audience) deserves better than to watch something as lame as this. No one is asking you to blow away the minds of your audience with incredible animation but come on, at least something entertaining or better quality than this!

frog prince paperweight
- the story
Find Something to Coronate Everyday
He may be a prince, but that doesn't mean he's always so charming. While kisses won't transform this pewter frog, his set of three playful hats will.
For days when the dishes are done and sweet nothings are uttered, top this hopper with a crown to show him how much you appreciate all of his shining qualities. When your prince needs a rest from regality, switch his crown for his baseball cap to commemorate those times when he goes off to cheer for a homerun with his amphibious comrades. And for those days when your prince is not behaving in a gallant way befitting his crown, there's ye olde dunce cap.
While his demeanor may switch from day to day, in the end Judy Vilmain's handmade, pewter frog paperweight gives you the perfect opportunity to show him you love him, no matter which hat he's wearing. Handmade in Rhode Island.

My car got broke into and they F***ed up the drivers door lock and damaged the area around the lock How hard is it to replace the locks? Has anyone ever shaved there door handles and locks. My son got some googles from James Bubba Stewart and Chad Reed at the Seattle Supercross. The stupid F***ers broke in and took the two pairs of googles and some change from the glovebox. They left my $600 camera and my briefcase with $400 cash and checkbook. Me and a bubby caught a guy breaking into his car 10 years ago and when we called the cops we told them he was trying to get away and we had to restain him. They said that's fine as long as he can talk when they get there. When I called the Seattle cops they just said "To Bad" I wish I would have caught them. My kid was ****ed.
that blows the big one. after my stang was taken, i had the body shop shave the door locks. i still have handles, but no door lock.
dude....that sucks...sorry to hear that mang, it should be man law that all cars are off limits under penalty of castration
+1 on the castration of all automotive theifs. Dude that really sucks sorry to hear it I hope ya get everyting back fixed soon.
Sorry to hear that man .... at least they didn't go for the $$ or camera. Hey donkey punch ..... did I miss something? What's up with your sig.?

Q. What's the deal?
The dealio is special bred pubic crab louses from Japan (not the same as homeless people's variety of lice exactly). They're unfucking believable! First, they DON'T BITE, they just live off dead skin cells and such in your bush. Really, you're cleaner with them there than without them.
Second, these babies are HUGE!!! Well, huge compared to regular lice. And they just live happily in your underwear. It's so COOL! They grow, and have families. You can feel em living and crawling around. It's like having personal Sea monkeys in your pants ;-) Seriously, though, they really are my personal pets that go everywhere with me. You get attached to them like any pet.
But here's the best part, how to give and get them with other people????? SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX!!! How awsome is that? You get busy instead of buy them at a store. And it makes the sex even awesomer when you know you're passing along little living animals. Tiny beautiful things. And when you give them to someone else, it's like, they become part of your family since their lovelice are the babies from mine. I don't know how to explain it. But that's why I started this web site. So we can talk about how great love bugs are and meet other people into the licing scene.
Even if today's Awful Link is totally staged & fake, there's still a good chance it's real enough to a number of people on the internet. Search engines have made every secret perversion into a not-so-secret perversion for everyone of us, and this is sadly one of the more believable bizarre fetishes. If anything though, it's pretty funny how they've claimed the term "Bugchasing" for themselves.

In the forests of Siberia, in the first years of the 20th century, a white pony runs free with his herd. But his life changes forever when he's captured by men. Years of hard work and cruelty wear him out. When he's chosen to be one of 20 ponies to accompany the Englishman Robert Falcon Scott on his quest to become the first to reach the South Pole, he doesn't know what to expect. But the men of Scott's expedition show him kindness, something he's never known before. They also give him a name—James Pigg. As Scott's team hunkers down in Antarctica, James Pigg finds himself caught up in one of the greatest races of all time. The Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen has suddenly announced that he too means to be first to the Pole. But only one team can triumph, and not everyone can survive—not even the animals.

LIT(ERALLY) SPEAK(ING) AIRS ON BLOG TALK RADIO EVERY TUESDAY MORNING AT 8:00 AM MST. (click logo to access show at air time) Do you like to write? Do you like to read? If you answered yes to either of these questions, then stop right here. You are bound to see something you like. You'll find interviews with authors about their latest book releases, writing tips, and inspirational stories from writers who have traveled the road to success. Like many writers, I've carried stories around in my head since I was a small child. My publishing credits are few, but that's okay, as long as the words get to the eyes God intended them for. I've learned over the years that in addition to penning a few words of my own, I enjoy encouraging and promoting other writers. I was fortunate to work with some talented young writers when I served as Executive Editor to a magazine for kids by kids, a publication of Written World Communications named Starsongs. I've made some cherished friendships with writers in my own age group who have stumbled over the roadblocks encountered by those of us who are moving toward our senior years. I've watched them struggle, persist, and achieve great dreams, and I champion every one of them. Are you a reader looking for that next great read? I have a line up of debut and seasoned authors anxious to share their literary offerings with you over these next few months. Are you a writer? Whether 8 and penning your first six-line poem or 98 and celebrating that very first publishing credit, or anywhere in between on the age or writing success spectrum, there's something here for you! |

LresultFromObject function
Returns a reference, similar to a handle, to the specified object. Servers return this reference when handling WM_GETOBJECT.
LRESULT LresultFromObject( _In_ REFIID riid, _In_ WPARAM wParam, _In_ LPUNKNOWN pAcc );
- riid [in]
Type: REFIID
Reference identifier of the interface provided to the client. This parameter is IID_IAccessible.
- wParam [in]
Type: WPARAM
Value sent by the associated WM_GETOBJECT message in its wParam parameter.
- pAcc [in]
Type: LPUNKNOWN
Address of the IAccessible interface to the object that corresponds to the WM_GETOBJECT message.
Return value
Type: LRESULT
If successful, returns a positive value that is a reference to the object.
If not successful, returns one of the values in the table that follows, or another standard COM error code.
Return code | Description |
One or more arguments are not valid. |
The object specified in the pAcc parameter does not support the interface specified in the riid parameter. |
Insufficient memory to store the object reference. |
An unexpected error occurred. |
Servers call this function only when handling the WM_GETOBJECT message. For an overview of how LresultFromObject is related to WM_GETOBJECT, see How WM_GETOBJECT Works.
LresultFromObject increments the object's reference count. If you are not storing the interface pointer passed to the function (that is, you create a new interface pointer for the object each time WM_GETOBJECT is received), call the object's Release method to decrement the reference count back to one. Then the client calls Release and the object is destroyed. For more information, see How to Handle WM_GETOBJECT.
Each time a server processes WM_GETOBJECT for a specific object, it calls LresultFromObject to obtain a new reference to the object. Servers do not save the reference returned from LresultFromObject from one instance of processing WM_GETOBJECT to use as the message's return value when processing subsequent WM_GETOBJECT messages for the same object. This causes the client to receive an error.

Kodak Shutters Its Business
Published February 10th, 2012
Loading Video...
Kodak put cameras in the hands of every day people.
125 years later, it's shuttering its business.
Kodak has made thousands of cameras over the years.
But those who know photography will tell you it's all about the film, not the camera.
Chris Schwer is a professional photographer.
He has been shooting black and white pictures on Kodak film for 30 years.
He worked in New York City in the fashion industry. For him, kodak was never about cameras.
"Everybody knows the Kodak moment, that's what they wanted," Schwer. " I just want the film to stay around for a while."
Kodak confirms it will still make single use cameras; this doesn't help workers here, since they are made out of the country.

nice amount of product on the pads that are soft and thin. but because they are non-oily...they don't take off the waterproof mascara. since that's what i wear on a daily basis...doesn't do the job like some other remover pads do.
but they are very affordable, the pads come nicely saturated with product, and they remove non-waterproof eye makeup very well.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Wavy, Coarse
Eyes: Black
I've been using these pads for a couple of years now, and prefer them over the liquid removers. It's so much easier to pull one of these out than get out a cotton ball and douse it with remover. And, when I get these on sale, they're actually cheaper than if you bought a bottle of remover and cotton balls. Also, better for traveling since it's one package and not a liquid to worry about!
These pads have just enough remover in them. I don't wear a whole lot of eye make up (just eye liner & mascara) so these do the job well. I always found that the liquids would seep into my eyes irritating them. And, as a contact lens wearer they're really great and completely non-irritating. The only thing I'm not sure about is the packaging. I'm wondering if anyone else finds that the pads get drier and drier the longer the container's been open. When I open up a fresh container the pads are pretty wet, but when there's just a quarter of them left they're not as moist. It's not that bad though. I just reactivate them with a couple of drops of water.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
i've been using these Almay oil-free eye pads for about 6 years. i love them! i bought the "moisturizing" ones first & boy was that a mistake! they're so GREASY!
but these oil-free ones are Fantastic! no grease & just enough moisture to keep my eye area from becoming too dehydrated.
i would recommend these to anyone. they're sensitive & very thin and light- great for taking off mascara and liquid/pencil liner!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I've used these for years. They take off my eye makeup effectively. I fold the pad in half and use the corner to touch up my liquid liner. Sometimes it can leave a greasy feeling but this goes away in a couple of minutes.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Dry, Fair, Warm
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
These smell awful, and they burn my eyes without removing any makeup. Will never buy again.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I did not really like these. I've used a lot better. The smell of these was also horrible, very chemical smelling.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Tan, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This has been the only product in my make-up bag that has stayed consistent for the last 10 years! i've tried other make-up remover and i always come back to this, it's so cheap and works great, doesn't burn or irritate my eyes! And it's so cheap and lasts for a long and i've tried make-up remover more than twice the price that irritated my eyes! i recommend this product to anyone!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
These are perfect for removing makeup on the back of my hand!! Sometimes soap and water is just not enough to take off gel liner on my hand and this does the trick! It looks and feels really clean after a few wipes and my hands are good to go. I am only giving this a 3 star because I don't really use it to remove makeup on my eye....I use waterproof mascara and this pad doesn't remove all mascara even after excessive rubbing!
Age: 44-55
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Brown
I have very sensitive eyes and used this product for maybe fifteen years? with no ill effects.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
I must have bought a dozen of these in my make-up wearing years. They are easy, convenient and take non-waterproof eyemake-up off beautifully. Sometimes they can dry out a bit but there are two solutions to that: #1. store the container upside down and #2. if you get a dry-ish pad, just add a drop or two of water to it and it works beautifully.

This part implies that TV screens, using fast IPS or VA panels (they're 3D capable) are superior to monitors, and tests just don't show this. A 24" TV is cheaper than a 24" IPS monitor, and they've got the same digital input and resolution now. We'd all have one, right?

One point in favour of these 3D screens is that they run at 120Hz. 2D viewing improves a lot when you use it versus a 60Hz monitor. I have had two 3D screens now, A Samsung which was OK but would not run Blu-Ray unless one reset it to 60Hz. The Acer GD245HQ is simply the best screen I have ever had and it is pretty well pefect for gaming and watching 3D DVDs

As far as 3D goes for monitors it is well behind the Real 3D TV technology that companies like LG, Samsung and Philips (to name a few) are already producing. Since I can plug a PC in via a VGA or ideally HDMI port and have happily done so on a 42" screen with good results, then I would have to say monitor manufacturers have some serious catching up to do.

Personally I don't agree that colour is a major problem with these 3D TN panels - the LG W2363D is fine colour wise, deviation is low enough and colour gamut is high enough. Viewing angles mean you might loose a bit if it wasn't your primary screen but it is my primary screen so not a problem. Sure we always want better but the colours aren't bad, particularly if you use it for games which aren't true to life - it's not like you are trying to photo edit with the monitor.

Excellent article. People can blast 3D all they want but the problem in the end is the displays - you have to wear shutter glasses and the screen itself is poor quality. These are not inherently unfixable concerns.
Wait a few years until we have auto-stereoscopic displays with excellent color and all this "3D is a worthless gimmick" stuff is going to be looked back on as stuck-in-the-past nonsense. Only those with 3D-blindness will continue to defend such a position. |

I thought that the frame rate at which a game is considered 'playable' is 25 fps, and that most movies run at 30fps? So 60Hz refresh rate is pretty useless? As the image is actually changed every 2 refreshes / the screen has to wait for the image to change. I never really understood that.

As part of Apple's on-going project to provide more space for customers, sources say the SouthPark (NC) retail store will undergo construction to expand into the adjacent Sur La Table space. The current store occupies about 3,000 square-feet in Section C of the mall, with a nearly 40-foot storefront. The expansion would add nearly 50 feet to the width of the store and another 4,000 square-feet to the interior. The store opened in March 2004. There's no timeline for when construction might begin or be completed.

How easy is it to remove the metal basket from the wood frame? Will the metal basket easily lift out of the wood frame, or are they fastened together? If it's removable, what does the metal basket look when removed from the wood frame?

Refraining from food and water all day during Ramadan is not that bad.
That's because we still get to eat twice — just before sunrise and again after sunset.
There's "iftar," which is the breaking-of-the-fast meal at sunset. But there's also "suhoor," which is a light meal Muslims eat before sunrise to be able to withstand not eating during the day.
Right now, the fast starts at about 4:20 a.m. in Southern California. The time varies, depending on location.
In Islam, suhoor fall into the category of "sunna," which means it's recommended. Sunna in Arabic means "the way of something." In general, when Muslims say sunna, it means following the way of the prophet.
When I was little, a guy used to walk our street with a drum and a little song in the middle of the night to wake up people for suhoor. That happens throughout the Arab world.
Most, but not all, Muslims get up for suhoor. Some people's work schedules don't allow them to get up in the middle of the night to eat and then go back to sleep before going to work.
Some just were never used to waking up and don't do it.
I'm one of those people.
My mom never gets up for suhoor and never woke me or my sister up when we were little, and so I don't do suhoor. Besides, I'm not really a breakfast kind of person.
If I happen to get up before sunrise, I usually drink water. If I'm already up late, like on many weekends during non-Ramadan time with my friends, then I'll eat something.
In the Middle East, restaurants are open throughout the night during Ramadan. Restaurants along Brookhurst Street in Anaheim, a section of Little Arabia, are bustling during iftar and suhoor.
Ramadan is not about feasting in the middle of the night or spending money on a variety of foods, but these are cultural aspects of this month and they have been mixed with its spirituality. It is important to draw that distinction.
Like iftar, which is usually a joyous gathering between family, friends and neighbors, suhoor serves as a great bonding time with your closest family members.
Affad Shaikh, a Muslim American of Pakistani descent whom I know from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, left his Newport Beach apartment for the month to spend Ramadan with his family.
Affad, 29, recently quit his job and is attending law school. He's out for the summer, which presented the perfect opportunity to spend Ramadan with his parents and younger brother and sister in Palmdale for the first time in a few years.
The family's alarm clocks go off right at 3:30 a.m., the lights go on and all members of his household gather in the kitchen for fried or boiled eggs. Mom prepares Paratha, which is like Pakistani tortilla that Affad and his brother like to eat with honey and dad prefers with banana. Affad makes himself a protein shake.
When the food is ready, everyone sits together to eat, talk and laugh. Affad said they talk about the news, about their plans for the day. Because their dad leaves to work at 5:30 a.m., it's a great chance to spend time and talk with him in the morning.
"I definitely appreciate being with family for suhoor," he said.
Once the family is done eating, they get ready to pray Fajr, which is the first prayer of the day. They also read the Koran and then, Affad said, "I'm usually knocked out."
"During Ramadan, we're kind of forced to sit as a family because of the time constraints," he said. "It's very communal. You get to come together to do these things."
You see, the benefits of Ramadan are endless. It's not just about worshiping God, character building, giving to the needy and refraining from food. It's also about eating together. It's about community.

This is part 2 of the alfred's playhouse trilogy.
Warped farther into dillusion from a flashback involving sodomy, Alfred visits his hallucinated friends - miniature mouse people! Yet again however, the playhouse is not all that it seems, and Alfred's secret friends dissociate him even more - and lead him into a cutting frenzy of self-pity and candycanes! Will Alfred fall into the oblivion of the cacoon of self-pity?
The conclusion will be released tomorrow!

Any Furcadia Players? Anyone here play Furcadia? http://www.furcadia.com The screenshots are old and don't do the game credit I run the most popular horse dream (its like a world) on the game currently :D Just wondering if any of you play? Great game if you love roleplaying and/or art or if you just like chatting. If anyone decides to join and wants to find me, once you make your character go to the B "Go To" tab and go to AI (Allegria Island) and hit F3 till it says "Main Hall" in your chatbox and then head North...West and in the main building you will find "The Wild West" and under that it says "Horse Roleplay". That's me! If you can't find it type /Caz yourmessagegoeshere and thats sending me a pm (known as a "whisper" in Furcadia) You can also use this link furc://thewildwest when you have the game open, this will get you there without all the directions. I also have an unrealistic dream and you can whisper me to find it, its in Allegria Island too and its called The Woods. |
