** Update : 17 December 2013 **
The online petition aimed at urging the Antigua & Barbuda government to legislate an all time ban on marine mammal captivity has nearly reached its target.
Thanks to all who shared and signed this. Marine Connection colleague Martha Watkins Gilkes, spokesperson of Antigua & Barbuda Independent Tourism Promotion Corporation (ABITPC) said she will soon be presenting the petition to the Prime Minister, (Baldwin Spencer), and Minister of Tourism (John Maginley), along with a letter requesting Antigua & Barbuda pass a law saying they will never allow captive marine mammals in the country. Maginley has publicly declared support for the ban, however it is vital that Parliament reflects the minister's position which is on track to be discussed within the Cabinet this week. More campaign updates will follow soon!
** Update : 01 December 2013 **
We have some exciting news about support for this campaign. London-based Trevor Beresford Romeo OBE (aka Jazzie B); DJ, music producer and founder member of Soul II Soul, whose family hails from Antigua, where he also has a home, has added his voice to stop the establishment of this planned dolphin facility on the island and we would like to thank him for his support and interest in the campaign.
** Update : 24 October 2013 **
We are delighted to report to all our members that the Antigua campaign is gathering momentum with the Antiguan Minister of Tourism, John Maginley, recently adding his support to the campaign. We are confident that legislation will be passed to ban any future importation of captive dolphins into Antigua, especially with the Minister's support behind it and we would urge everyone to add their voice to thank him for his support so far.
Please email The Hon John Maginley, Minister of Tourism for Antigua & Barbuda at – we can make a real difference to not only the future for captive dolphin facilities proposed in Antigua & Barbuda but for the Caribbean area in general.
** Update : 13 October 2013 **
Thank you to all our supporters who have so far signed the petition against establishing a captive dolphin facility in Antigua - by working together we can make a difference to help persuade the decision makers against allowing this to proceed.
With approximately five months to go to the elections on Antigua, it has already been confirmed by both parties that they do not support captive dolphins being exported for display on Antigua, therefore the time to act is now. If legislation against captive dolphins is passed on Antigua, it will have a huge influence on plans by other Caribbean islands who may plan to have captive facilities in the future.
Please continue sharing this page and the petition link - it is vital to help enable our colleagues working on the ground in Antigua against these plans as it will highlight to the Government the feelings of people globally against the formulation of captive dolphin facilities on Antigua.
Keep Antigua free from captive dolphins
(10 October 2013)
Marine Connection is supporting the campaign to have a law to be passed banning the keeping of captive dolphins and whales in Antigua. The Antigua Barbuda Independent Tourism Promotion Corp (ABITPC) has launched an online petition after learning that the Dolphin Cove facility in Jamaica has shown interest in establishing a swim-with-dolphins programme in Antigua.
A similar dolphin project was rejected many years ago as a result of the environmental problems the project would have created including damage to surrounding coral reefs where the dolphin pens would have been located. Dolphin waste in concentrated areas can cause a blue green algae over bloom which covers and kills live coral. Popular with cruise ship companies, Antigua is approx 14 miles long and 11 miles wide, Marine Connection colleague Martha Watkins Gilkes who lives on Antigua has already held discussions with the Minister of Tourism, The Honorable John Maginley, who has confirmed that he would support the banning of captive dolphins but to do so, legislation needs to be put in place.
How You Can Help Stop This
Please sign the petition and share the link with friends, family and colleagues to help persuade the Antiguan Government against allowing this facility to be built on the island.

PHILADELPHIA -- You can easily track the minute-by-minute price swings of a barrel of oil, but can you do the same for a megawatt of electricity? Today you can.
The Electricity Price Ticker Partnership, led by the Penn Institute for Urban Research at the University of Pennsylvania and PJM Interconnection, has unveiled its Web-based Electricity Price Ticker that tracks the real time wholesale electricity price for the PECO area. The ticker is the centerpiece of the partnership's Electricity Price Awareness campaign, which aims to increase the public's understanding of the connection between the wholesale price of electricity and their electricity bills. The ticker will show that energy use patterns affect the price of electricity and encourage support of national Smart Grid efforts.
The other partners are Penn's Facilities and Real Estate Services and its Green Campus Partnership, the Greater Philadelphia Innovation Cluster for Energy Efficient Buildings, the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation, Penn State's DOE-funded Grid Smart Training Application & Resource Center and PECO. GPIC provided financial support for the ticker design.
A visit to the partners' Web sites – except those of PECO and PJM -- reveals a ticker displaying the price of a megawatt hour of electricity, updated every five minutes as the price can vary greatly during a single day and by season.
A click on the ticker directs the users to the Partnership's Web site to learn about the electricity market: how electricity is produced, transmitted and distributed to homes and businesses.
From the Partnership's Web site, users can browse the individual partner's sites for information about awareness programs and events. For example, at PJM's site, users will learn what a megawatt hour of electricity can do; at Penn IUR's site, visitors can take an electricity literacy test; and at the Penn Green Campus Partnership site, users can find out how to conserve electricity on a university campus.

Music: Before the music died
Music | Popular music has gone from Fats Domino and Johnny Cash to Cradle of Filth
Recently, the promoters of the Milwaukee Metalfest-"North America's Premiere Heavy Metal Festival"-announced the bands for this year's edition of the weekend-long event: Morbid Angel, Cradle of Filth, Rotting Christ, Twin Obscenity, Impaler, Dying Fetus, Myself Am Hell, Internal Bleeding, Deaden, Jungle Rot, Immolation, Bludgeon to Death, and several dozen other graduates of the Dale Carnegie School of Nomenclature. It was enough to make one nostalgic for Marilyn Manson. Exactly when the blend of country, gospel, and rhythm-and-blues that once was rock 'n' roll turned ugly is hard to say, but one thing's for sure: It wasn't always. Those who want proof need only consult Fats Is Back and Johnny 99, two long-unavailable but recently reissued albums by rock- 'n' rollers who were there from the start. Fats Is Back is the comeback album that Fats Domino recorded for Warner Bros. in 1968. Coming as it did five years after his last top-40 hit and eight years after his last top-10, years during which rock 'n' roll had become thoroughly hippiefied, the album faced an uphill climb. (It eventually yielded a minor hit, Mr. Domino's version of the Beatles' "Lady Madonna.") Rather than adapt his rollicking, piano-based sound to current trends, Mr. Domino and his producer Richard Perry, who would go on to success with the Pointer Sisters and Leo Sayer, stuck with the patented Fats formula. Even with Beatles songs (the album also includes a version of "Lovely Rita"), the material was catchy and concise, the stuff not of revolution but of sock hops. Today, in the era of Morbid Angel and Cradle of Filth, Fats Is Back sounds positively quaint. The very titles of "So Swell When You're Well" and "Honest Papas Love Their Mamas Better" are cherishable anachronisms. The 30-minute album is cherishable for its form as well as for its content: Rock 'n' roll albums weren't always the metaphors for self-overindulgence that they've become in the age of the 80-minute CD. Equally cherishable-and, at 37 minutes, brief-is Johnny 99, the album that Johnny Cash recorded in 1983 at the commercial nadir of his career. Out of step with both rock and country fashion at the time of its release, it now seems to have foreshadowed American Recordings and Unchained, the albums that would rejuvenate Mr. Cash's career a decade later. Like them, Johnny 99 combines songs from eclectic sources, establishing a context in which the songs take on subtle but meaningful connotations. The Bruce Springsteen compositions-for instance, "Highway Patrolman" and the title cut-don't so much modernize the country and folk songs that surround them as turn into country and folk songs themselves. Unlike Mr. Cash's mid-'90s albums, Johnny 99 boasts no cameos by young scenemakers. Instead, a cast of backing musicians with credentials going back to Mr. Cash's days at Sun Records provides support that's as sober, spare, and effective as the singer's voice. The result? An album that speaks more loudly than the entire Milwaukee Metalfest roster put together.

First race went well. I didnt push myself because i really just wanted to see what it was like. It was very,very cold at 39 degrees and a 20 mph wind. The trail was really fast and the ground was hard packed. I made a few mistakes but all in all it was a decent performance. i got 16th out of 38. I'm confident i can do better as long as it's a little warmer.

Hi all! here is the last one. shawdow left Jupiter.

Very nice work.
Posted 16 January 2013 - 04:53 PM
I found this works pretty well most of the time. I actually always use a scheme like this on Jupiter, and know of several others who use a similar scheme. Sometimes with smaller APs, sometimes with less and larger APs (noise blue channels). Sometimes I even add some extra small APs over shadows of a moon or on a moon itself , but I'm always sure that the feature is stable enough to handle that.
This number of APs seems reasonable to me. In fact I was using ~75 APs until recently when Steve and Glenn pointed out that a smaller number might work better. In my testing 30 APs was never any worse than 75, and in above average seeing 30 was very slightly better. Not much, but if you looked close you could see the difference. So considering that it runs faster to boot, I'll be sticking with ~30 for Jupiter.

Yet another cigarette fire is being reported, this time with tragic consequences. A 47 year old man in Portland, Oregon was killed in a house fire that was caused by a burning cigarette. While we have made fun of the fact that it is easy to put out cigarettes before, the loss of human life is no laughing matter.
One can only hope that this horrifying example will serve to remind others that proper disposal of cigarettes is something that needs to be treated very seriously. Year after year an obscene amount of fires are started that are the result of improperly putting out cigarettes. It's senseless, especially when you put it in perspective that it only takes a few seconds to fully put out a cigarette. If more people would be mindful of whether or not their cigarette is fully put out then there would be far less property damage and more importantly less loss of life.
If you are a smoker who has caught themselves not putting out their cigarette properly, then do yourself and others a favor and try getting an e cigarette starter kit. Click here to learn more about them.

Parting gift! Obama showers praise on Manmohan
May 21 2014 , New Delhi
President Obama's encomiums on Manmohan Singh for 'his visionary leadership' have come at a time when the soft-spoken Singh is virtually fading into the sunset.
The US President in his letter earlier this week to Manmohan Singh appreciated his singular dedication to tackle poverty in India through economic reforms. He also hailed Singh for transforming India into a global leader.
According to the Congress manifesto released during the poll campaign, 14 crore people had been pulled out of poverty during the decade-long Manmohan Singh regime. After the Congress debacle, several leaders like party general secretary Digvijay Singh have either directly or indirectly held Manmohan Singh responsible for not convincingly taking the party's 'development plank' to people.
The quiet and suave Singh made no attempt to ward off these barbs. At the last week's Congress Working Committee (CWC), he took the blame on himself even as the party tried to persuade Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi to withdraw their resignations.
President Obama has described Singh as one of the few public leaders whom he "admired" and would "miss" working with on a "day-to-day basis".
The US president also credited Singh's dedication to strengthen Indo-US strategic relations. It was during Singh's tenure that the civil nuclear power deal was finalised. During Obama's visit to India in November 2010, the deal was finally sealed. Accordingly, US firms like Westinghouse and GE Hitachi have collaborated with Nuclear Power Corporation to set up N-power projects in India.
In fact, Singh was even willing to sacrifice his government on the deal with US in the wake of opposition by Left parties and resistance from UPA partners.
A PMO statement quoted Obama as saying, "I have tremendous gratitude for the critical role you have played in defining and expanding the strategic partnership between India and the US." Obama said during Singh's 10 years in office, Indian and US ties spread across trade, defence, investments and clean energy technologies.
Indo-US trade has grown to nearly $100 billion while investments have touched $30 billion. In fact, US is one of the few countries where India enjoyed a trade surplus of over $20 billion in 2013. Obama gave all credit to Singh for the fight against terrorism, proliferation of weapons and promoting peace in Afghanistan.
At the Pittsburgh summit of G-20 leaders in September 2009, Obama described Singh as "the wisest" man and one who world leaders looked upon for "advice" to tackle the global meltdown. "I am proud that the US could play a role in your efforts to build a dynamic, prosperous nation, which I believe will bring great benefit to our countries and the world," Obama said.

|Fullerton Auditorium
(The following is excerpted from Dr. C. G. Hopper, Jr's. book, Toward the Light: Photography and Limestone College, pp. 222-225)
The auditorium on campus was erected in honor of William Parnett Fullerton, 1888-1956, by his widow, Alma Hamrick Fullerton, who offered a challenge gift of $250,000 which was matched by friends of the college.1
Mrs. Alma Hamrick Fullerton, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. W. C. Hamrick, was a native of South Carolina. She was born 9 October 1895 in Gaffney, where she later attended the public schools. In 1908, at the age of thirteen she became a student in the Music Department of Limestone College. Thereafter, she entered Brenau College at Gainesville, Georgia, where she graduated with a degree in Domestic Science. In 1916 she attended the Colonial School (Washington, D.C.), a "finishing school" where students attended classes in art, music, literature and history, as well as etiquette and world affairs.2
During World War I, Miss Hamrick volunteered with several friends from Gaffney to work in a factory at Penamon, Virginia, which manufactured war supplies. When she returned home, she assisted with the evening classes attended by the cotton mill workers at Cherokee Avenue School.
On 28 February 1924, she married W. B. Fullerton of New York. Her marriage was a social interest throughout the entire South since she was the daughter of one of the South's leading textile manufacturers and president of teh Hamrick chain of mills, and the groom was the son of Mr. and Mrs W. J. Fullerton, a prominent and distinguished family of Ridgewood, New Jersey. In addition, Fullerton was a junior partner of the firm of Wilson & Bradbury, one of the foremost cotton goods commission houses of New York and Philadelphia. The ceremony, which was held in the bride's paternal home at high noon, united two prominent families involved in the manufacture and sale of cotton goods. It was a private affair with only members of the two families being present. Dr. Robert C. Granberry, D.D., president of Limestone College, performed the wedding ceremony. All was done with striking simplicity.3
The Fullertons made Montclair, New Jersey, their first home; thereafter thay moved to Englewood, New Jersey, and later to Tenafly, New Jersey. In addition the Fullertons owned homes in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Biltmore Forest, North Carolina; and an apartment in New York City.4
The Fullertons traveled extensively in the United States and in Europe. They were actively involved in many civic and charitable organizations.
A challege gift of $250,000 from Mrs. Fullerton was announced 12 March 1962 at a dinner meeting in the college dining hall before the members of the student body, faculty, trustees, and approximately one hundred invited guests. In making the announcement, Paul Black, of Spartanburg, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, informed the assembly that the Alma Foundation, Inc. of Gaffney, had given the gift on the condition that the college raise an additional quarter-million in matching funds by the following first day of May. The trustees of the foundation, Mrs. W. B. Fullerton (the former Alma Hamrick, of Gaffney), Waite C. Hamrick, Sr., and John M. Hamrick, both of Gaffney, had challenged the college and its friends to raise the matching fund within a period of about two and one-half months. 5
In accepting the challenge, Dr. A. J. Eastwood, president of the college, stated: "This is the largest single gift by one person or agency to Limestone in its entire 117-year history, and it will serve as a spring-board to an entirely new era for Limestone." Emphasizing that the gift from the Alma Foundation was on a matching basis, he said that Limestone would embark immediately on raising the additional $250,000.6
Mr. Black announced to the gathering that the trustees of teh college had already approved a building program to erect a new 1,100-seat auditorium, a new library, and additional dormitory facilities which would house an additional sixty students. He said, "It is our intention to begin construction of the auditorium before July first of this year."7
The Alma Foundation, donor of the quarter-million-dollar challenge gift, was founded under the guidance of the late W. B. Fullerton, in whose memory the gift was made. and for whom the new auditorium would be named. Although during the ten years the Alma Foundation had existed several small gifts had been distributed, this was the foundation's first major gift. 8
The editor of The Gaffney Ledger stated that not only the college's official family, including administrative officers and faculty members, but the citizens of the community would be indebted to the Alma Foundation, Ins., which is an agency developed by the members of the family of the late Dr. W. C. Hamrick, one of the most successful textile executives. The editor observed that in offering this assistance, the Foundation was continuing the strong support which Dr. Hamrick gave Limestone during his lifetime. Not only did Dr. Hamrick give the generous gift-- Hamrick Hall of Science-- to the college, but in addition, gave of his accute business judgement to help solve the financial problems of the college. Furthermore, he served on the Board of Trustees as have his son Waite C. Hamrick, Sr., his two grandsons, Waite C. Hamrick, Jr., and John M. Hamrick; and his great-grandsons, Wiley C Hamrick and Charls Hamrick.9
The editor went on to observe that Limestone College means much to Gaffney and Cherokee County. "Many, many places without facilities for higher education would give a great deal for such a school", he wrote. He stated emphatically, "Therefore, anyone who helps Limestone College helps Gaffney and Cherokee County," and concluded, "the Alma Foundation gift offers residents of the community an unparalleled opportunity to add to Limestone's worth to the area. If the challenge is met, the college will be made immeasurably more valuable. It will be place in a position to contribute even more to the educational and cultural needs of this section."10 The campaign to raise the matching funds began 12 march 1962.
The successful matching of the challenge gift from the Alma Foundation was announced at a victory dinner at the college on 2 May 1962. Not only had teh challenge been met, but according to Paul Black, chairman of the Limestone Board of Trustees, gifts from alumnae and friends in twenty-two states exceeded the amount needed to match the grant. 11
The building committee appointed by the trustees included John Hamrick, chairman, Claude B. Poole, Claude Littlejohn, and Paul Black, ex efficio member. 12
Construction of the 1,100-seat auditorium changed the look of the campus of the College. The new building was set slightly behind the front line of the Winnie Davis School of History and at a slightly lower level, thereby reaining the natural slope of the land. Arraigning the buliding thus prevented the modern architechture of the auditorium form clashing with the modified Gothic form of the much older Winnie Davis School of History. Rather than take attention from the older building, the new auditorium enhanced its appearance.
The dedication sevice held on Thursday, 5 March 1964, was opened by Dr. A. J. Eastwood, president of Limestone College; and Academic Dean, Dr. William J. Kimball gave the dedicatory lecture. John Hamrick in his remarks noted that the new building was another demonstration of the "faith" held in Limestone College. He then presented keys to the auditorium to Dr. Eastwood on behalf of the trustees.
The trustees and the faculty of Limestone College held an open house tea on Sunday afternoon, the fifth of April, nineteen hundred and sixty-four, for invited guests to inspect the new auditorium and to celebrate having the magnificent new facility. Mrs. Fullerton and other members of the Hamrick family were guests of honor. The following month, Mrs. Fullerton was awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters in the graduation excersises of 1964.13 On 15 May 1968 Mrs. Fullerton received the honor of being the first person given the title of Honorary Lifetime Trustee of Limestone College. Mrs. Fullerton, daughter of Dr. Wylie C. Hamrick and sister of the late Waite C. Hamrick, Sr. and the late Lyman Hamrick, having continued the family tradition of serving on boards and committees of the college, was uniquely qualified for the honor. Shortly before, at a meeting of the Limestone Alumnae on 30 March 1968, she had been presented a plaque which read: "The Alumnae Association of Limestone College in recognition of the consideration and the generosity shown through the years for the progress and growth of her Alma Mater designates Alma Hamrick Fullerton A Distinguished Alumnae of Vision and a philanthropist and humanitarian."14
Mrs. Fullerton was also an energetic supporter of other institutions. For example, she gave a million-dollar challenge gift late in 1966 to the Memorial Mission Hospital of Asheville, North Carolina, to erect a wing to the hospital in her husband's name. When finished in April 1971, the two-and-a-half-million-dollar ultra-modern medical facilitiy was hailed as a milestone for Western North Carolina.15
On 20 September 1980, Alma Hamrick Fullerton died. Her services were held at All Souls Episcopal Church in Ashville, NC. 16

MILWAUKEE - Freshman Claire Freeman hit a jumper with 0.6 seconds to go to help the Butler women's basketball team to a 71-70 win at Milwaukee Saturday afternoon. The two teams traded three field goals in the final 14 seconds, the final being Freeman's game-winner.
Butler (13-7, 6-3 HL) trailed 68-66 when Brittany Bowen hit a 3-pointer from the left wing with 14.5 seconds to go to lift BU to a 69-68 lead. Milwaukee's Danielle Jorgenson answered with a baseline jumper with eight seconds to go to put UWM up one.
Following the shot, Butler quickly brought the ball down and junior Terra Burns found Freeman, who hit an 18-footer from the top of the key. The Bulldogs broke up UWM's final desperation baseball pass as time expired.
With the win, Butler stays one game out of first place in the Horizon League standings. Green Bay and Detroit are each 7-2 in league play.
Senior Melanie Thornton led Butler with 14 points before fouling out late in the game. She shot 7-for-8 from the floor. Bowen and Freeman each scored 10 and junior Alyssa Pittman had nine.
Butler controlled the game until UWM's McClain made a 3-pointer to give the Panthers a 46-44 lead at the 12:19 mark. A Stephanie Schell lay-up gave UWM a 57-53 lead, and the Panthers would take a 62-53 lead on another 3 ball by McClain.
Pittman nearly single-handedly erased Milwaukee's lead, burying three 3-pointers over a 2:12 span. Butler led 66-64 until Laur hit a jumper with a minute to go and McClain made a pair of free throws to give UWM a 68-66 lead.
The Panthers (9-11, 4-5 HL) and Bulldogs traded baskets for the first 10 minutes before Butler took control. BU played aggressively throughout, and ripped off a 14-4 run to take a 23-16 lead and force a UWM timeout with 7:46 remaining. The run was capped by Pittman's no-look pass to Susan Lester for a lay-up in transition. A pair of free throws by Anne Breland brought UWM to within 33-29 with 20 seconds left before halftime but Hamilton scored a put-back just before the buzzer to give BU a 35-29 halftime lead.
McClain led Milwaukee with 20 points and six assists, while Jorgenson and Sami Tucker each had 13.
Butler has just one game next week, traveling to Valparaiso Saturday, Feb. 6.
NOTES: The Bulldogs have won four of their last five at Milwaukee...Butler shot 50 percent from the floor (30-for-60), the fifth time this season BU has made half its shots. Butler is 5-0 in those games...Butler had a 33-27 rebounding edge...Chloe Hamilton tied game-high honors with seven boards, including a game-high four offensive rebounds...The Bulldogs shot 5-for-6 and hit three 3-pointers in the final 3:43 of the game...BU had 19 assists, tied for the second-highest mark of the season. Butler had 21 assists against Evansville.

Loved it! The setting was simple, but new. Loved how Tory kept her boots on the whole time. Great anal. Both models are smokin' hot. Would like to see a little breath play and maybe some different gags, but that's just me. Great job WA. GREAT JOB! Bring Tory back again and again!

Tory Lane is a 10! One of the best looking models you have had on the site. Her outfit at the beginning was smoking. Nice work by Julie too. If Tory wants to try being a sub, maybe you could hook her up with Sandra. That's one shoot I'd love to see.

Relient K: U.S. Touring Line-up Changes Drummer Zac Farro (Ex-Paramore), Dan Gartley (Sanctus Real), Tom Breyfogle (Secondhand Serenade)?
Relient K memebers John Warne (bass guitar), Jon Schneck (guitar) and Ethan Luck (drums) announced recently that they will not be touring with Relient K on their upcoming U.S. Tour dates.
Here is what they wrote on the bands official Facebook page:
"To all the amazing fans of RK:
It is with sadness that we write you to say that we will not be touring with Relient K on the upcoming tour dates. This will be the first tour that the Jo(h)n's have missed in over eight years, and the first that Ethan has missed since he joined the band in 2008. We will miss seeing you all on the road this year, and we want to thank you for always being there for us. Hope to see you soon.
John Warne, Jon Schneck, Ethan Luck."
With not many details released, no one is for sure if this is a permanent split from the band members or just a temporary move.
An interesting line up change is Zac Farro, ex-Paramore drummer, playing drums for Relint K on their recent Australia tour dates.
Relient K have just released news though that Dan Gartley and Tom Breyfogle will be performing on bass and drums respectively. So Zac Farro was only a temporary fill in and will not be on the U.S. Tour dates.

Harry Styles Dating Model Cara Delevigne: New Couple Alert?
It seems like notorious ladies' man Harry Styles is linked to a new girl every week — and for good reason. The cheeky One Direction lad is fun, flirty, super talented, and objectively adorable. While Taylor Swift may want him to STFU, it's nice to know that fashion models still find him utterly darling. Or, at least, model Cara Delevigne is reportedly into his particular brand of cute.
According to an E! News source, the two Brits have been getting close for the last couple weeks. Last week, the pair caught a production of The Book of Mormon at a West End theater — though how anyone in the audience could focus on the hilarious play with those two in the room is beyond us. The source says, "Harry's been chasing Cara nonstop. He really likes her and has been saying that he wants to be exclusive with her."
Yikes, we know how Harry feels about clinginess in a partner, so let's hope that he isn't too intense with Cara. Like, what if he's all "I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks and it all makes sense to me," and she's just like "Get away from me, freak"?
E!'s source says that things are going great right now, even though Cara may not be as available as Harry wants. "She's a top girl and she's finding her feet right now. They are seeing each other though, casually, and are actually very cute together. Their friends think it could work out… He's really chasing her, but she's a really busy girl."
In fact, Cara may soon be headed to LA to try and get into acting. Hmm, London to Los Angeles is quite the commute, but with 1D's new film This Is Us under his belt, perhaps Harry could give her some movie pointers?

Even though Capcom and the streetfighters are strong and can pull awesome moves like firewalls and windmill kicks how they are any match for robots and futuristic opponents with guns and swords. We all know Capcom but your probably wondering who are these Tatsunoko guys? In short they are a japanese anime company that has been around since the 60 and have created epic hits you may recognize as "Samurai Pizza Cats", "robotech", "Neon Genesis Evangelion", "Speed Racer X" and "Gatchaman" there are many more. At least Capcoms got Megaman 😉
Capcom characters:
RYU: Ryu is a dedicated martial artist who aspires to become a true fighter. He tirelessly wanders the globe looking for stronger opponents to ensure he continues to improve upon his techniques and strength. He has previously revealed in other VS series his desire to gain the mutual respect of his opponents strictly through battle. His special Hadoken and Shoryuken moves are, inarguably, his trademarks.
PTX-40A: A prototype VS (Vital Suit), nicknamed Ivan, no other VS comes close to the PTX-40A in terms of power and capabilities. It is equipped with heavy armaments attached to its shoulders, shotguns for close-up battles, and lighting quick moves never thought possible for its size.
ROLL: A sweet female robot, Roll is often known as Mega Man's sister. She was created by Dr. Light, a prominent roboticist, to assist him in the lab. She is a peace-loving robot, but is not afraid to confront villains with her broom during times of emergency.
CHUN-LI: Chun-Li, a famous Chinese fighter and Interpol agent, is a prominent martial artist who is renowned for her speedy and powerful kicks. Whether showcasing her fighting ability on the job or in the ring, she has never given up hope of finding her missing father. She knows that the Shadaloo crime organization, and its leader, her longtime arch-enemy M. Bison, are linked to her father's disappearance.
SAKI: Saki appears to be an ordinary 16-year-old high school girl, but once a monster appears in her town, she undergoes an unexpected transformation. She becomes an Earth Defense Force specialist, armed with a giant rifle to aid her in defending the town against the attacker.
BATSU: Batsu Ichimonji is a high school student driven to fight for his friends and family. His fierce moves of the Kiai Dan ('Guts Bullet') fireball and dashing aerial 'Guts Uppercut' represent his straightforward personality and pure fighting style.
ALEX: Alex, a young fighter born and raised in Manhattan, sets out to find the mysterious challenger who defeated his mentor and trainer, Tom. Extremely quick and powerful, Alex specializes in hand-to-hand combat with a fighting style that utilizes wrestling techniques and throws, complemented by swinging punches.
MORRIGAN: Morrigan is a mysterious succubus and the ruler of Aensland. Born to one of the noble families in the Makai world, Morrigan detests boredom and ventures down to the human world in pursuit of stimulating events. She has large wings comprised of bats that also act as her fighting assistants. In battle, her wings can morph into a wide range of weapons to suit her needs, including a drill, blades, a jet booster, and many other forms.
VIEWTIFUL JOE: Joe transforms himself into the invincible superhero, Viewtiful Joe, and battles enemies to save Movieland, a place of movies. He expertly manipulates VFX Power, a super ability which contains camera tricks such as Slow Motion and Zoom. With these amazingly beautiful tricks, he thrashes his enemies 'viewtifully.'
ZERO: ero is a member of the Maverick Hunters, a group that hunts down renegade Reploids known as Mavericks. He is one of the top hunters and has earned an A rank. He is easily distinguished by his crimson highlights and long, blonde hair. His weapon of choice is the Z-Saber, a sword with a blade of concentrated energy. This powerful weapon can be changed to match the vagaries of battle.
MEGAMAN VOLNUTT: An excavator who makes his living digging for ancient ruins, MegaMan Volnutt never backs down from a fight, regardless of his opponent's size or strength. His unwavering courage supplements his wisdom in battle. His weapons are the Mega Buster cannon equipped on his left arm and a detachable right arm that can be swapped for a variety of battle-proven attachments.
FRANK WEST: Sensing the scoop of a lifetime, freelance photojournalist Frank West grabs his trusty camera and heads to Willamette, Colorado by himself to investigate a mysterious disturbance. Franks shows a fortitude and resourcefulness during crisis situations not found in the average person. (Franks special move is when he sneaks up behind you and strangles you with his camera strap.. unfortunately doesn't work on robots).
SOKI: Soki, a young warrior equipped with easily identifiable blue armor, is on a mission to destroy the evil Genma. By absorbing souls of the Genma he defeats, he awakens the demon's power within him and turns into the ultimate Onimusha. Soki's real name is Hideyasu Yuki, but he was given the nickname of Soki in honor of his wild fighting style, which is similar to the Demon God's style.
Tatsunoko characters:
KEN THE EAGLE: Ken is the Science Ninja Team leader. His real name is Ken Washio, he's 18 years old, and he works as a test pilot. As Ken the Eagle he uses an eagle-shaped boomerang weapon known as the Bird Run. His 'light jet,' which he uses for air races while undercover, transforms into the high speed G1 which can be attached to the God Phoenix super-ship. One of his objectives is to find information about his father, whom he barely knew due to them being separated from one another when he was young.
GOLD LIGHTAN: Lightan is a golden warrior who came to Earth from the Robot Dimension to save humanity from the invasion of King Ibalda. He retains the form of a small pocket-sized lighter until summoned. When he is called, he transforms into a giant robot traveling along the Rainbow Road and crushes enemies with his dynamic moves. His signature move, 'Gold Crash,' pierces straight into his opponents' heart with his 'hand sword' and crushes their core.
DORONJO: Doronjo is a mysterious beauty who leads the Dorombo Gang (which includes her henchmen, Tonzura and Boyacky). She can be easily spotted by her wisps of blond hair peaking from behind her mask and her perfect form-fitting outfit. Although the Dorombo Gang keeps busy with many different evil activities, they are focused on finding the fabled Dokuro Stone, which they believe will lead them to the world's greatest treasure.
YATTERMAN-1: Yatterman-1 is a globe-trotting hero who invents massive mechanical weapons to save the world. His trademarks are his bright smile, signature mask, and his crime-fighting weapon, the Kendamagic.
TEKKAMAN: With his state-of the art Tekset system technology, Joji Mionami transforms himself into Tekkaman, the space knight. Tekkaman protects humanity by fighting off the evil organization, Waldaster, that killed his father.

CASSHAN: Tetsuya Azuma transformed himself from an ordinary human into the indestructible neoroider, Casshan. After his transformation, he awakened to awesome, newfound powers. He chooses to use these powers to fight against the android Braiking Boss, who has violently seized control of the world. Casshan's signature face mask and pulsar weapon is accompanied by neoroider abilities such as extendable legs and superhuman strength. He is joined by Friender, his a robotic dog partner who has a variety of special powers, including the ability to transform into a number of useful machines.
POLIMAR: A heroic crime fighter with a strong sense of justice, Polimar is a master of the invincible Hurricane-style martial art, which is known for its magical movements. He also wears the Polimar Suit, a special high-tech crime-fighting suit made of shape-shifting memory plastic. The real man hidden under the suit is Takeshi Yoroi, a private detective's assistant, whose undercover identity is that of a hapless loser.
IPPATSUMAN: Ippatsuman is a mysterious hero who always appears just in time to save Ran and Harubou, who work for the highly successful Time Lease leasing company. His special rubber suit protects him from attacks by redirecting the impact. He can also throw the 'Ultimate Rainball' projectile weapon and manipulate its direction with his superpowers.
JUN THE SWAN: The only female member of the Science Ninja Team (which fights the evil organization Galactor), Jun specializes in explosives and sabotaging enemies' forts. In battle she uses a customized yo-yo-type weapon that has been merged with a knife, and mesmerizes her enemies with her sophisticated moves.

JOE THE CONDOR: Joe the Condor puts his skills as a crack shot to use as the second-in-command for the Science Ninja Team. His weapons of choice are his trusty Air Gun and Feather Shuriken, and he employs them to a deadly advantage in battle. After his parents were killed when he was very young, he vowed that he would not rest until all evil was eradicated, and he will use any means to achieve that single-minded goal.

Last week, Necro spoke with HipHopDX. In part one of the conversation, the Brooklyn-based emcee/producer spoke about challenging himself on his just-released album Die! After taking a lengthy hiatus from producing outside artists, Necro also spoke on his 1997 beat for "Gihad" appearing on Raekwon's 2009 album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...Pt. II, which was HipHopDX's album of last year.
As that conversation continued, Necro explained why un-returned calls and lack of interest from emcees led him to stop entertaining producing others. He revealed that his music has landed in some legendary hands, and even one superstar peer from the '90s underground Rap community. "I've been makin' beats for years, and givin' beat CDs to people for years," Necro told DX. "I've given beat CDs [and] have stuff sent to Kool G Rap, I've had stuff sent to Rakim, Big Daddy Kane's house, all these dudes who don't even live in New York and had no idea I sent it to them, 'cause some of these dudes live in [Virginia] and [I] have different contacts [to] have beat CDs sent. I gave Cormega beats, I gave Tragedy [Khadafi] beats - I gave Eminem beats."
With Eminem working with acts such as DJ Spinna and Thirstin Howl, III in his early days, that may not be surprising to hear. However, interestingly enough Necro revealed that the CD Slim Shady received included what would become one of Necro's most championed productions. "I gave Eminem a beat CD, the first beat on it was 'Black Helicopters' [as later titled by] Non-Phixion, before they used it," he revealed. "So a lot of people have had chances, where they could have rocked over a Necro beat. And they didn't. It got to a point where I felt either [one of] two things: either I'm gettin' hated on 'cause I'm white, which would kind of suck, 'cause I'm seeing all these white herb kids' beats used. I was never askin' for money. I'm thinkin' either dudes don't like me, 'fuck this dude Necro' or maybe the beats aren't good enough. Maybe my style - and I was givin' such grimy shit too, real dark - [was too much]. I wasn't getting called back."
Besides the case with Raekwon, who's grown close to Necro's brother, Ill Bill, the experiences from a decade ago forced the producer to focus on keeping his work in-house. "If you're [Psycho+Logical Records], I'll produce some shit for you. Pretty much after 2000, I decided no more. That's when I started PLR, in November of '99," he said of the label that includes Mr. Hyde and Q-Unique. Family also is an exception for Necro. "Bill, he's my brother, so he'll always get beats for me. One thing about Bill is he won't take beats from somebody that's wack. He won't use my beats just 'cause I'm his brother; he'll be the first one to tell me if he doesn't like one of my beats. The funny thing is Bill always got my beats, he understood my beats. Some of the biggest Non-Phixion hits and bangers are [produced] by Necro: 'C.I.A. Is Trying To Kill Me,' 'Refuse To Lose,' 'I Shot Reagan,' these are all Necro joints." These tracks appeared on the celebrated group's The Future Is Now, The Green CD/DVD and various 12" singles dating back to 1998.
Necro was also asked about "First Blood," a scratch-based concoction that has the potential to be a new classic within his catalog. Necro explained how an '80s Sylvester Stallone film staple inspired the song's music and writing. "When I make a track like 'First Blood,' [it's] me trying to give you that Rambo experience. Anybody who's [around] 30 years old, they grew up knowing that movie, that music. And nobody in Hip Hop ever freaked it. A lot of people [are inspired by war], but nobody ever did War. Okay, I want to make that happen."
After the music came the words, "I cooked the beat up [and was impressed]. I could've said some thug shit, like 'I'm a hood Rambo.' But I decided to freak the movie. Here's the thing: if I would've done it and it didn't sound good, I wouldn't have put it out. It just so happens when I started writin' it, it came out hot."
Necro broke down his writing further, "The first line is flames: 'Special forces / Professional with a four-fifth / Congressional medal shit / Aggression will get you split,' once I got that, I already know I've got some shit. Everything's got to be as hot as that first line. I just kept buildin' off that, and rhymin' it. People don't understand - it's such a big process recording that. You could write the shit and have a good beat and it still ain't done. Now you've gotta step up to the mic and spit it. That ain't easy. Listen to the way I drop that, I'm hittin' it. I'm not lazy. Shit is not easy, especially when you're technical. It takes breath control and multiple takes." With a core audience that respects delivery, lyricism and a syncopated flow, Necro is unapologetic to those who might not notice the lyrical craftsmanship he put in such bars, "But when you know, you know. Certain people, they get it."

On September 8, WWOZ will broadcast Magnetic Ear, led by saxophonist Martin Krusche, live from the Blue Nile to celebrate the release of this eclectic all-star band's third CD. The lineup includes familiar faces from the New Orleans music scene, like baritone saxophonist Daniel Oestereicher of Big Sam's Funky Nation and trombonist Jeff Albert, founder of the Open Ears Music Series.
The broadcast is sponsored by LetsBeTotallyClear.org, so the show will be totally smoke-free, providing a healthy environment for the musicians, staff and audience.
About Magnetic Ear
Magnetic Ear was originally formed by Martin Krusche in 2005 as a trio featuring Kirk Joseph (founding member of The Dirty Dozen Brass Band) on sousaphone and Kevin O'Day on drums. After the chaos of hurricane Katrina the group was reformed as a larger collective, a home for returning musicians whose previous bands were scattered.
This configuration, which was nominated "best new emerging artist" for 2007, featured Martin Krusche on tenor saxophone, Daniel Oestereicher on baritone saxophone, Jeff Albert on trombone, Jon Gross on sousaphone and Justin Peake on drums. The band became as comfortable with a lush arrangement of an Ellington ballad as it is with an original jazz composition, second line or funk. That variety is well demonstrated on their release 'The Magnetic Ear live at Saturn Bar'.
The new extended Magnetic Ear features founder Martin Krusche on tenor saxophone, Daniel Oestereicher on baritone saxophone, Charlie Halloran and Jeff Albert on trombone, Jason Jurzak on sousaphone and Paul Thibodeaux on drums.
The orchestration of this group combined with the musical background of its players allows for a wide variety of styles. Their third album features the extraordinary abilities of musicians alien to the Magnetic Ear.

Former High School Teacher Pleads Guilty to Possession of Child Pornography
|U.S. Attorney's Office November 09, 2009
LEXINGTON, KY—A former Paris, Ky. high school teacher pleaded guilty in federal court today to two counts of possession of child pornography.
Kenneth Shadoan, 31, admitted he possessed child pornography images in his vehicle and at his mother's residence in Pulaski County between May of 2007, and May of 2009.
Authorities found approximately 225 child pornography photos and 30 videos on CD's in Shadoan's truck and in his bedroom at his mother's residence.
According to court documents, in May of 2009, the mother of a 17-year-old high school student contacted Paris Police and stated that her son's girlfriend discovered that her son sent nude photos of himself to Shadoan from his phone to receive a better math grade.
Shadoan officially pleaded guilty to two counts of possessing one or more maters which contained visual depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. He also pleaded to a forfeiture count, which will force him to surrender his computer and any associated software involved in the criminal activity.
James A. Zerhusen, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Kentucky, Timothy D. Cox, Special Agent in Charge for the FBI, Jack Conway, Kentucky Attorney General, Paris Police Department and the Bourbon County Commonwealth Attorney's Office jointly made the announcement today after the plea.
The investigation was conducted by the FBI and the Paris Police Department.
Shadoan's appearance for sentencing in U.S. District Court in Lexington, Ky. has been set for February 11, 2009. Shadoan faces up to 10 years in prison on each count. However, the court must consider the federal statute and the United States Sentencing Guidelines before imposing a sentence.

we really enjoyed our stay in francois apartment, it was perfect for the 3 days, cute and clean :) francois was really helpful when we got there.
We loved the place!!! It is very quiet and in a nice area of Paris. In the studio you find everything you need (even if we were too stupid to use the electric stove ;)) and it just feels like a hospitable place to stay in. Sure, it is small, but really efficiently furnished. Thanks!!!
small room but clean and well equipped, everything new and modern about ten minutes walk from the subway. we loved its location which allows easy access to all points of interest in a short time. owners are very friendly and ospitevoli have provided basic necessities. eg an ideal place to stay in Paris.
locale piccolo ma pulito e ben attrezzato, tutto nuovo e moderno a una decina di minuti a piedi da metropolitana. abbiamo apprezzato la sua posizione che permette facilmente raggiungere tutte punte di interesse in breve tempo. padroni sono molto gentili e ospitevoli hanno fornito generi di prima necessità. un posto ideale pe un soggiorno a Parigi.
I have fond memories of my short stay in this small studio well equipped. The neighborhood is lively, yet very quiet when you're in the studio because in a courtyard.
Je garde un bon souvenir de mon court passage dans ce petit studio bien aménagé. Le quartier est très vivant, tout en étant très calme quand on est dans le studio parce que dans une cour intérieure.
Very clean, located in a cool area of Paris. But you might be a bit shocked when you first arrive: it's actually a converted storage shed, on the ground floor of a courtyard. It's fine if that's all your budget can manage, but if you can stretch to a bit more, you might find somewhere more homey! However the foam mattress is quite comfortable, and the hosts had kindly left coffee, tea and some basic supplies in the fridge. Also, the shower is very good!
Small but beautiful apartment with everything you need for a few days in Paris. It is a great starting point for wandering around the city and bakeries, supermarkets, cafes, restaurants are just around the corner. The host was very accommodating. The communication and keys with him worked without complications. We would stay there again anytime!
Kleines, aber feines Appartment mit allem, was für man für ein paar Tage in Paris braucht. Es liegt perfekt als Ausgangspunkt für Streifzüge durch die Stadt und Bäckereien, Supermärkte, Cafés, Restaurants sind gleich um die Ecke. Der Gastgeber war sehr zuvorkommend. Die Kommunikation und Schlüsselübergabe mit ihm hat ohne Komplikationen geklappt.
Wir würden jederzeit dort wieder übernachten!
The apartment is very nice and functional, it is really close to the metro station (Voltaire), from which you can easily reach all points of interest. Quiet but full of restaurants and activities of various kinds. The apartment, very confortable and functionally, is near the underground (Voltaire), where you can reach every point of interest in Paris. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet, and you can find a lot of restaurant and mini-market.
L'appartamento, molto carino e funzionale, è veramente vicino alla fermata della metro ( Voltaire), da cui si raggiungono facilmente tutti i punti di interesse.

Apartment small but very cozy. In the courtyard of a building complex (renovated cellar). Perfect for two, but there is little privacy devido the confined space. Well located on the map, neighborhood atmosphere. Highly recommended. ATTENTION! in April 2012 had not yet INTERNET.
Apartamento pequeño, pero muy muy acogedor. En el patio interior de un conjunto de edificios (trastero reformado). Perfecto para dos, aunque no hay mucha intimidad devido al espacio reducido. Bien situado en el mapa, barrio con ambiente.
Muy recomendable.
ATENCIÓN! en abril de 2012 AÚN NO HABÍA INTERNET.

^^ where did he say he lets students get away with that?
I'm sure if some stuffy old white guy tried to write a novel without the letter "E" (oh wait) we'd all fawn about his creative use of the language to expand descriptive possibilities or some other navel gazing bilge. But if a seller shows up on craigslist creatively adapting the language to his will, we assume the seller must just be that stupid and it's a failure of the schools and surely a sign of the sky beginning to fall.
The "get off my lawn" side of this place is pretty tiresome sometimes.

[Kanye West]
Damn baby I can't do it that fast but I know somebody who can. Twista...
[Verse 2: Twista]
Got you looking at the gliss' on my hands and wrists

Feelin' on a G? And all is (Well Well Well Well Well)
Come with me and sip on some Evelyn Champagne
You ain't know Twista can work it like The Whispers?
Hit the stop light, get into some Isley's
The rims still moving so I'm bumping a little Spinners
While I'm smoking on a B, dipping through the streets
Bumping R&B, and I got the heat on them 23's
And I do it (well well, well well)
Put my Earth in the Wind smokin' Fire
Let me get your sheets wet listening to Keith Sweat
Put you in a daze with Maze
Fulfilling our every temptation, slow-jamming, having deep sex
You Ready for the World, girl?

An every moment you controlling me I'm loving the way you be holding me when I be listening to Jodeci
And when I come over and bend your ass
You be bumpin' Teddy Pendergrass
I done hit it from the back to the melody of "Roll It Slow"
Now I gotta go up in it fast, but I'mma finish last
No matter how much of a thug, you see
I still spit it like its R&B, go to the club with me
And with some Luther come on, I hope you feelin' me and still gon' be in love with me
[Verse 3: Twista]
Baby drop another slow jam
And all us lovers, need to hold hands
And if you ain't got no man, hop up in my Brougham
I keep it pimping like an old man
You gots to roll with the plan
Cause after that, then I

Then I got to bone
Stay up in the zone, got to get you home
Gotta run up on, and I do it
Baby drop another slow jam
And all us lovers, need to hold hands
And if you ain't got no man, hop up in my Brougham
I keep it pimping like an old man
You gots to roll with the plan
Cause after that, then I

We can get it on
Disconnect the phone

I have followed the split domain wiki, but does not seem to have helped.
I believe one of you might have an answer to my headache. I want to enjoy the wonders of zimbra, but I am currently not seeing it happening.

what extra changes do I have to make on the last configuration to make it the secondary MX?
How do I make it known to the secondary MX that some accounts now resides on the primary MX and those accounts should receive emails from accounts in the secondary MX?
How to let all valid domain emails coming from the outside are being accepted instead of being rejected when I make the MX records changes?
I want to be able to migrate users one at a time from accounts currently on my email server to the primary email server that I just created. The domain that will be the primary email server is zimbra.my.account.com and in it, I will have the my.account.com domain.
Also, the domain for my current email server is my.account.com, which I am trying to make the secondary email server after configuring the MX records.
Remember, I still want to be able to use my same domain name (my.account.com) in both servers.
I did a relayhost on the primary MX zimbra.my.account.com that seems to be relaying some emails and rejecting most valid emails.
When I try to send emails from account on the primary server to accounts on the secondary server, it loops back to itself even though i did not tell the primary server that those accounts now resides on it. And the command for that will be:
The command below adds that account to the primary MX zimbra.my.account.com but transport emails to my.account.com

Singapore Sikh Education Foundation is deeply saddened
by the passing of our Founding Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew.
On this sad day, let us share our thoughts
about Mr Lee's life and contributions with
family, friends and our students.
Currently the Punjabi Language curriculum comes under the purview of The Board for The Teaching and Testing of South Asian Languages (BTTSAL).1990 - 2007The Singapore Sikh Education Foundation started the programme in 1990 by using books published in India. These were supplemented by worksheets prepared by teachers.Problem – The curriculum was India-based. This served its purpose as a starter. However, students found difficulty in relating with several aspects as most passages were based on agrarian households. Singapore's context and lifestyle is very different and students found difficulty in identifying with the Curriculum.Response – A Singapore-based Curriculum was designed and new Instructional Materials published to cater to the needs of the learners.Singapore-based CurriculumThe Singapore-based Curriculum was drawn up. The Curriculum ensures that the following are met:a) teaching of the Four Skills – Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writingb) Examination demands by Ministry of Education, Singaporec) socio-cultural Needs of the CommunityCommencement of Process – from Worksheets to WorkbooksIn the Year 2001, the Punjabi Language teachers compiled their Worksheets over the 10 years into the themes stipulated in the Framework. The laborious task of publishing the books began with teachers and the Administration Staff working round the clock.The 108 titles, Course Books, Workbooks and Students' First Aid in Punjabi Language (Student Guides) for all the 12 levels, Kindergarten to A levels were piloted in the Year 2002. Feedback from students and teachers was sought and the publication of the published books came into use in the Year 2003.A Curriculum Framework was formulated along the guidelines of the Ministry of Education's Mother Tongue Language Frameworks. In the Year 2000, the Ministry of Education issued a new set of Examination Guidelines which reflected major changes in the secondary syllabus.
The Board for the Teaching & Testing of South Asian Languages (BTTSAL) provides a common Non-Tamil Indian Languages (NTIL) syllabus, curriculum and teaching materials.

The Chinese astronomers have used it to study astronomy with remarkable results.Time of Day Each day, as the sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening, the shadow of the vertical pole (called the gnomon) moves in a circular arc on the ground. By marking the position of the shadow, one can tell the time of the day in local time. With proper constrction, an accuracy of one minute can be achieved. Sun Dials were used to tell time for centuries. It wasn't until a few hundred years ago that mechanical watches were invented. Day of the Year Each day the tip of the shadow tranverses an arc on the ground. On each successive day, the arc is different, because the position of the Sun is different on the sky.

What are your thoughts vs. About Emerson? vs. For a girl?

It's very trendy, boyish, and I don't like it. Plenty of people do, or it wouldn't be so trendy... I prefer classic or feminine names.
posted by guest: Sara :: 2013-10-11 08:47:28 | report
I consider it a girl name now because I see it being used on girls more than boys. But I think it should have stayed a boy's name or a surname.
I'm positive you can find something infinitely better.
posted by guest :: 2013-10-11 08:52:32 | report
I find it very masculine on a girl. Even though it has "Em" in it its still a boys name. I honestly don't get why anyone would name their daughter anything that ends in "son"

I think Emerson is a great name, boy or girl.

I think it's tacky on a girl. I once knew a little girl named Emerson and went by Emory. Don't know why her parents didn't just name her Emory.

Don't like it for a girl at all. It is all boys. Trendy for a girl right now but will be out of date in a few years.

I don't like it as a girl name. That could be because it's on my boy list, though. It just seems so masculine that I can't see the appeal of giving it to a little girl.

Oldman, Swinton and 'Tree of Life' Earn San Francisco Film Critics Circle Awards
By Rossiter Drake on December 11, 2011 7:30 PM
The San Francisco Film Critics Circle has announced its 2011 awards for achievement in film, naming The Tree of Life the year's best picture and doling out top honors to the movie's director, Terrence Malick, and cinematographer, Emmanuel Lubezki.
Paranormal Activity of a Different Variety Scores Big Laughs in 'The Men Who Stare at Goats'
I'm not sure how much of The Men Who Stare at Goats is true. It's inspired by Jon Ronson's book, which documents a time when the U.S. military encouraged a select few in its ranks to hone their psychic abilities, believing, however inaccurately, that the Russians were doing the same. But what transpires in the movie, directed by Grant Heslov (HBO's Unscripted) and starring George Clooney, is so flagrantly over-the-top it seems like a lunatic riff on the facts.

How to Apply Makeup Like Flo, the Progressive Girl
Flo is the universally recognized "Progressive Girl." She sells auto insurance to various people while making puns and sporting bright, 1950s inspired makeup. Her look is simple to do and it looks great on anyone.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Apply matte foundation. Make sure your face is well moisturised, and use concealer to cover any blemishes. Set the foundation with a translucent powder.
2Fill in your eyebrows. Flo has neat, dark eyebrows. If needed, tweeze or wax your eyebrows so they have some shape. Use an eyebrow brush to shape your eyebrows, then add color.
3Apply eyeliner. You can use either liquid or gel eyeliner, but pencil may look too soft for Flo's look. Thicken the line as you move towards the outer corner of the eye, and wing it out slightly. Don't apply any to the lower lashes.
4Apply black mascara. Use two generous coats on your top lashes to make your eyes seem bigger, and one light coat on the bottom lashes. Curl your lashes if desired.
5Apply blush on the apples of your cheeks. Smile in the mirror, and swirl the color on your cheeks with a large blusher brush.
6Apply a matte red lipstick. Use lip liner to keep the lines neat. If you aren't a fan of lipstick, try a bright red lip stain instead. Refrain from using lip gloss, as it can look too shiny or glittery for Flo's look.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- The blush should be a peach or light pink shade so it blends in with your skin tone and looks natural.
- For everyday wear, try a pink lipstick or stain instead of red.
- This makeup is great for a Halloween costume.
- Try not to get makeup in your eyes, it can be very painful.

American Prince: A Memoir
by Tony Curtis
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Tony Curtis was never one of my favorites, but the Golden Boy of the Golden Age had a life story that I wanted to read. He truly lived life, regardless of whether we agree with it or not. He started with a multitude of swashbuckling screen roles before expanding into some classics. He always had charm and that trait also comes across in his memoir.
I just couldn't get past his constant whining about not being taken seriously as an act-or. Good grief. Get over it. Cary Grant, Oliver Reed, Richard Burton, and Peter O'Toole never won Oscars, so Curtis's belief that he ranked with the best was a bit too much. He is certainly honest, though, even titling one of his chapters, "Cocaine". Now, that's why we buy celebrity autobiographies.
Book Season = Summer (on the beach)
Curtis comes off as a conceited jerk.
A thorough autobiography with a normal amount of self justification and perhaps more than a normal amount of honesty. Mr. Curtis seems to have been very frank without being mean, or cruel. He is very open about his life as a "move star", husband to multiple women, absent father to six children and friend to savory and unsavory people. It certainly was not an admirable life however he seems to have lived it with joy and enthusiasm for the most part while also feeling the pain and sadness of being human and part of a dysfunctional family and industry.
Tony Curtis sits down with Golenbock to give us the inside story about his journey from the streets of New York to his rise to stardom. Although the layout of the book was a little disjointed and confusing, I tried not to get caught up in time line jumps. There are no real earth-shattering revelations; Curtis led a typical Hollywood life with the ups and downs we so often hear about in a star's career. I did enjoy all his personal stories, though, involving some of our great cultural icons of his heyday in the biz. Made me very nostalgic and took me back in time in my own personal life. Definitely a trip down that memory lane we so often hear about.

It's been a while since I took on one of my little personal projects. I'm pleased to say it's been a while because I've been busy, but most of those projects are hidden behind non-disclosure agreements and threats to have my limbs snapped if I take credit for them (or worse, not get paid).
So here's the next thing I'm going to do to show off (or make myself look an arse if it goes wrong).
DVLA Application for a driving licence (D1)
There's a bigger picture of it below, but I didn't want you to miss the favour I'm going to ask
Have you, or anyone you know, filled this form in recently? What problems did you come across?
Without getting into the problems with the detail (there are plenty of them though), just looking at all the pages shows how much space is taken up with notes for a relatively small amount of questions. Oh, and there's also a 16 page booklet that tells you 'How to fill in your Application for a driving licence ( D1)'.
So, having publicly set myself this challenge, I'll be doing my best to document the process of making this form (and its war and peace notes) easier to understand. Wish me luck.
Let′s discuss: leave a comment and see where the conversation goes

Good luck; can I suggest you move on to the You Gov web site next: and all the university loan stuff which goes on and on and on.
I am 76 0n 17-04-2103 and driving licences then expires.Out of uk before the 18 01 2013 till… 27 april 2013….so cannot apply either on line or at post office to have a legal licence when I return to the uk………another note needed? Why not allow beforehand, if renewal of d/l is free over 70? Photo is up to date 'cos it is taken from new biometric passport….. maybe a rare combination of events…but possible…..Why not allow earlier applications that are then held(not issued) until due date? Another note?
