I am seeking an eye catching design for an A5 colour flyer / advert to promote my web development company.
I am very keen on a pop up / out of frame idea.

I am happy for you to choose the image as long as it is applicable to the advert.

however I am happy for you not to include the logo if you feel it doesnt fit in with your design.
Important! The design must be portrait and NOT Landscape.

5 Thoughts on the Oscar Nominations (Part 2)Posted by HeroOfCanton, Jan 23 2009, 12:11 AM
2. Whither The Dark Knight?
Fanboys are in a tizzy today, because finally, this year was going to be the year when a summer popcorn blockbuster broke into the top categories instead of being relegated to the tech category slums. But not so much. The highly anticipated nominations for Adapted Screenplay, Director, and Picture didn't pan out for The Dark Knight. Instead, as conventional wisdom has it, TDK's spots in those categoeries were taken, nay stolen, by The Reader, that artsy, Holocaust, Oscar-bait movie that TDK fanboy, Kris Tapley, calls "pornographic."
Perhaps we should try a little perspective. First off, if this hadn't been a generally weak year for movies, no one would have even gotten their hopes up for a movie based on a comic book. Second, I understand the disappointment, but not the surprise. If folks who pay attention to awards are truly shocked that Harvey Weinstein got a Best Picture nomination for his movie The Reader, they must have been willfully blind. The first rule of awards season is never bet against Harvey Weinstein. I thought everyone knew that? Third, and I don't know how to say this delicately, so I'll just rip the bandaid right off--The Dark Knight isn't that good a movie. The script is a mess. For a movie to get the big nominations, a tight, focused script helps a lot. And don't try to argue that the Academy doesn't like crime mysteries with intricate plots. When movies do that kind of story well, like two of the best movies of the '90s, The Usual Suspects and LA Confidential, they win screenplay Oscars. I'm sorry fanboys, but you're just going to have to wait for something better to come along.
(Does The Hobbit have a release date yet, by the way?)

How impressive is that. I can't say they were slim but it looks like they are riding as part of a training thing for the police force.
I did not see any police. What time was that. I rode out to Mt White. Left Hornsby Heights at 555am and back at 740am. It would have been interesting to see. Maybe it is an organised morning ride for the hornsby police station.

Pulling the Curtain Back on Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP)
Investors are paying close attention to the charts of Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP), as the shares are holding above the MACD Histogram zero line. The equity recently moved -0.28, touching 16.21 on a recent tick.
MACD-Histogram bridges the time gap between the price movement and MACD. It offers a deeper insight into the balance of power between so called bulls and bears than the original MACD. It is one of the best tools available to a chartist because it shows not only who has control over the market but also their magnitude of strength.
The difference is represented by vertical lines in a series. The interesting fact is that like MACD, MACD-Histogram also fluctuates above and below the zero line. Hence, it is also known as an "oscillator". In other words it is just the hide and seek between the fast and slow lines. If the fast line is above the slow line, MACD-Histogram is positive and plotted above the zero line. On the other hand if the fast line is below the slow line, MACD-Histogram is negative and plotted below the zero line.
Additionally investors may want to examine some alternative technical indicators when studying a stock. Currently, the 14-day Commodity Channel Index (CCI) for Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP) is sitting at 11.92. CCI is an indicator used in technical analysis that was designed by Donald Lambert. Although it was originally intended for commodity traders to help identify the start and finish of market trends, it is frequently used to analyze stocks as well. A CCI reading closer to +100 may indicate more buying (possibly overbought) and a reading closer to -100 may indicate more selling (possibly oversold).
The 14-day ADX for Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP) is currently sitting at 32.63. Generally speaking, an ADX value from 0-25 would indicate an absent or weak trend. A value of 25-50 would indicate a strong trend. A value of 50-75 would signal a very strong trend, and a value of 75-100 would indicate an extremely strong trend. The ADX is a technical indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder used to determine the strength of a trend. The ADX is often used along with the Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) to identify the direction of the trend.
Moving average indicators are used widely for stock analysis. Many traders will use a combination of moving averages with different time frames to help review stock trend direction. One of the more popular combinations is to use the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Investors may use the 200-day MA to help smooth out the data a get a clearer long-term picture. They may look to the 50-day or 20-day to get a better grasp of what is going on with the stock in the near-term. Narrowing in on Moving Averages, the 200-day for Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP) is at 17.14, the 50-day is 15.11, and the 7-day is resting at 16.41. The RSI is computed based on the speed and direction of a stock's price movement. The RSI is considered to be an internal strength indicator, not to be confused with relative strength which is compared to other stocks and indices. The RSI value will always move between 0 and 100. One of the most popular time frames using RSI is the 14-day. The 14-day RSI is presently standing at 55.90, the 7-day sits at 50.33, and the 3-day is resting at 40.20.
Investors may be watching other technical indicators such as the Williams Percent Range or Williams %R. The Williams %R is a momentum indicator that helps measure oversold and overbought levels. This indicator compares the closing price of a stock in relation to the highs and lows over a certain time period. A common look back period is 14 days. Quality Care Properties Inc (QCP)'s Williams %R presently stands at -50.00. The Williams %R oscillates in a range from 0 to -100. A reading between 0 and -20 would indicate an overbought situation. A reading from -80 to -100 would indicate an oversold situation.

Stenvers family
Stenvers, a Dutch Mennonite family descended from a family of Burgsteinfurt, Westphalia, Germany. Since the early 17th century a branch lived at Enschedé in the textile business, and later textile manufacture; a number of them served as deacons of the Mennonite church. Sometime later its members were also found in other Mennonite congregations. Kl. Stenvers was treasurer of the Deventer Mennonite congregation about 1900. In the 17th century the name Stenvers was also spelled Stenforts or Stenvorts. They may have be longed to the same branch as the Stenfort family.

Two teenagers took the reins of a project that has been going on for 11 years that helps provide backpacks and school supplies to local students in need.
Jack Murray, 15, of Bristol, and Megan Albert, 16 of Southington, raised funds from the parishioners at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Bristol to help buy school supplies and backpacks for children who are less fortunate than they are. Not only were backpacks distributed to several local organizations, but 60 backpacks were sent to Moore, Okla., which suffered widespread damage from a tornado on May 20 that killed 24 people.
"We always send the backpacks to kids who can't afford back to school supplies, but this year we also wanted to help with disaster relief," Murray said, adding that this is his second year helping run the backpack project.
The project has been going on for the past 11 years, and has been a collaboration between Gloria Dei Lutheran, and St. Andrew Lutheran in Bristol. The project began with Gloria Dei parishioner Tracy Carlson, who said the teens who volunteer are involved in "a great learning experience."
She said when the teens get involved in the project, "they begin to take ownership" and they realize that they are helping other students, like them, who are less fortunate, Carlson said.
The teens raised money and then bought backpacks and supplies like notebooks, folders, pens, pencils, and more. All of the backpacks were for grades ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade, for boys and girls. In addition to Oklahoma, backpacks were given to the Plainville Community Food Pantry, Bristol Social Services, Zion Lutheran Church soup kitchen, and an organization in Hartford called Our Piece of the Pie.
Murray and Albert aren't new to community service.
Murray said he volunteers at local soup kitchens, and even sees his peers going through the line sometimes. "It makes me realize that not everyone is as fortunate as I am," Murray said, adding he likes the backpack project and being able to help other students in need in his community.
Albert said she has gone on mission trips with her parish, and said working on the backpack project is "a good way for me to help get other kids ready for the first day of school."
The two have been helping with the backpack project since they were young, and said they enjoy doing community service projects and plan to continue volunteering in the future.
Albert said she would encourage teens her age to find an organization that interests them, and help out when they can. Murray said when a disaster happens, people will be sympathetic and want to help out, so he suggests finding a local organization that benefits victims of disasters, to volunteer for.
The project was given donations by parishioners, and Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.

So here you go. My thoughts on being a motorsport marshal. It's not long, and I think it's unfinished, but at the same time it sums up everything I'd need to say.
A few months ago I posted this on the Twitter:
Since then I've had another 2 amazing marshalling weekends that just reinforce that statement even further.I have to wake up at about 5am. I have to stand in the cold/rain/wind/sun all day long. I wear steel capped boots that make my feet ache by the end of the day. And unfetching black/orange overalls with an oversized neon orange jacket that somehow makes me lose the circulation to my hands. And I love every single moment.
In other news, I have no idea why I called it "the Twitter" as if I'm 90 years old. I'm pretty sure it wasn't on purpose, but I like it.

The criminal case against a Lake Orion woman who used to work at a Ferndale medical marijuana dispensary has been sent back to Oakland County Circuit Court for a continuation of an evidentiary hearing..
Barbara Agro was 70 years old when Clinical Relief — a dispensary where Agro was employed as a receptionist — was raided in August 2010. Investigators also searched the home that Agro shared with her husband, Sal Agro, who died of a heart attack about a week after the Aug. 25, 2010 raid.
Barbara Agro ultimately was convicted of one count of delivery/manufacture of marijuana and was sentenced to 90 days of probation, along with 20 hours of community service.
Agro appealed the conviction, arguing that she should have been allowed to disclose the fact that she was a medical marijuana patient to the jury.
"(Agro) claimed that she and her husband were qualifying patients and caregivers, the plants were kept in an enclosed, locked facility, and she did not have more than the allowable amount of plants," the Court of Appeals decision reads.
The trial court, Oakland County Circuit Judge Wendy Potts, ruled during a pretrial hearing that Agro failed to prove that her home, where she and her husband had 17 marijuana plants growing in the basement, was a locked facility, as the law requires.
"Because (Agro) failed to show that she was in compliance with the (Michigan Medical Marihuana Act), the trial court concluded that … (Agro) could not assert an affirmative defense," the opinion reads.
The prosecution has conceded that the trial court's conclusion was valid at the time but is contrary to a subsequent Supreme Court ruling on the law, which was published last year. Agro was sentenced in July 2011.
Agro argued that a new trial was warranted, while the prosecution argued that the pretrial hearing should be continued, and the Court of Appeals sided with the prosecution.
There are three paths that the case could head down as a result of the decision, as outlined in the opinion.
"If there are no material questions of fact and (Agro) establishes the elements (of the affirmative defense), then the charges shall be dismissed," the opinion reads.
"If … there are material questions of fact, then the defense must be submitted to the jury and, in that case, defendant is entitled to a new trial.
"If there are no material questions of fact and (Agro) fails to establish the elements … then she is not entitled to assert the defense at trial and there would be no basis to vacate the defendant's conviction."
Agro also argued that she was not allowed to present a defense — in this case that she mistakenly believed she was complying with the law. "Ignorance of the law or a mistake of law is no defense to a criminal prosecution," the opinion reads, citing another case. The court ruled there was no error.
The court declined to address a due process question, due to the decision to send the case back to trial court. The court did rule that it was "improper" for the prosecutor to speak about whether the case was "legally sound" during closing arguments, but ruled that jury instructions should have been sufficient to "cure the prejudicial effect" of the statements, citing a prior case.

A few problems with my 08 focus
Liongolfer posted a topic in Ford Focus ClubRight, I've had my 08 Focus Style since just before Christmas and I bought it as a pre registered car so it only had about 20 miles on the clock, so car is still under warrenty. 1) I seem to be getting a knocking noise when on full lock (going forward) and occasionally when reversing (someone actually thought I had hit something when I was well clear of everything around me, which was what drew my attention to it) It has only started when I was almost forced off road down a little country lane and having to do an emergency stop, after that when I was breaking the car seemed to pull to the right, however the next time I used the car everything seemed fine, checked tyre pressures etc... and although the front off was a little over inflated (36 psi instead of 34) and the rest where a little under inflated (31 instead of 34) everything else seems ok 2) Since changing the clocks the other week the clock keeps displaying the wrong time and or date, noticed this yesterday so reset, left for about an hour and went back and the time was wrong again 3) When car is double locked and I just open the boot (via the button on the remote), when I shut it again the boot remains open, is this right as I'm sure it used to re-lock again? Any help would be appreciated and other than them little problems I love the car and even getting used to the stupid wing mirrors (just wish I had power fold )

Fuel Cap
Liongolfer replied to Freedive's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubTis correct and I also quired it on my Focus and was told the same.
Vision Blue is well nice, then again I'm biased (see my avatar :P )
Sorry but if your getting the Mito then it's got to be Alfa Red, IMO that's the only colour Alfa should do :P As for Squeeze Green on the Fiesta, when I was getting my Foucs (and alright the dealer was trying to persuade me from going for anIbiza in there version of Squeeze) he told me that a green car is one of the hardest to sell...he was equally unhappy when he had to do my Part Ex which was a 106 in you guessed it green No seriously all dealers I have spoken too have said never get a green car, unless it's British Racing Green.
New Fiesta Climate Controls
Liongolfer replied to KJay's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubIn my Mum's Nissan Note when you set the climate control it directs the air flow to where you need it, therefore if your screen needs demisting it will direct it there (well that's what it seems like anyway) On my Focus (which doesn't have climate control) if you set the blower to the window and hot it automatically puts the air con anyway.
Mk2.5 Focus 1.8 TDCi Diesel - problems problems...
Liongolfer replied to homerush's topic in Ford Focus ClubSo you didn't like the Focus then :D
20mpg on 1.6 focus zetec!
Liongolfer replied to thfcmad's topic in Ford Focus ClubMake sure if you follow the brim to brim advice you only fill it until the pump clicks off, don't try to squeeze a little bit more in as this will just be lost down the breather pipe as the fuel expands when it get's hot.
Liongolfer replied to shanieboy's topic in Ford Focus ClubWhen I went for test drives, I test drove a diesel instead of the one I eventually got (was persuaded by the salesman I wouldn't get any benifit of a diesel, I wasn't complaining as it saved me £2k ) and was getting judder in 4th gear, basically he told me I was changing up too early and you need change gear later in a diesel, so pribably only why your judder occures in 4th gear at low revs.
Seating Position
Liongolfer replied to jd55's topic in Ford Focus ClubI'm about the same height and have no problems changing gear in my Focus, have you tried lowering the seat (with the the push handle) when your close enough to reach the pedal correctly? On some of the newer Focus' the pedals also move.
Hello and AC on at engine start!!!!
Liongolfer replied to sjbear's topic in Ford Focus ClubNo problem, I wondered the same thing when I first got mine :)

Duality - Bulbs with Interesting Pairs of Leaves
Dormant for one year, this lone, single leaf on a Resnova megaphylla shows how stunning even a single leaf can be. Native ot a specific area of South Africa which has a wealth of these relatives of Ledebouria, these species range from cold climatically severe grasslands in the interior summer rainfall areas of the country to narrow endemics only known from one mountain top.
Some species like this are rare and vulnerable to habitat degradation and destruction. This applies particularly to several dwarf species such as this one, known from only a handful of localities on the Mpumalanga escarpment. this tiny bulb finally emerged after a two year domancy with the hope that next year, this tiny rare bulb may actually bloom. Even if it doesn't, the leaf -"although it be tiny, it be cute". The leaves are awesome.
Other plants with oddly paired leaves are many of the Lachenalias, which only produce two leaves, and the Massonia, here, a Massonia echinata shows it pair of fleash, ground-hugging leaves, and it's seasonal shaving brush tuft of flowers. The Massonia are quite fascinating, some have pustules on the leaf surface, like tiny blisters, and other species have fuzzy hairs covering the leaves. They are all small, tender South African bulbs which each produce only a pair of leaves, and with similar flowers during the winter months of December and January.
This rare Brunsvigia bosmaniae, another South African is slowly every so slooooowly growing, in its giant pot of fast draining soild. Dormant for most of the summer, I hope that it blooms in my lifetime! I carefully spends each winter on this sand bed, carefully watered and fertilized, tempting me with the possibility of bloom. IT will probably freeze before it ever blooms, the greenhouse ran out of gas last night, and thanks to a rather unfriendly gas company I use, I had to wait until today to get the tank refilled. We are having problems with our heater, since the greenhouse is kept rather cool, condensation creates an unfavorable combustion atmosphere ( my guess, anyway) so the heater explodes when the gas runs out, and then is refilled. Or on chilly damp days, tomorrow I will spend time on the phone trying to find out what the problem really is. Until then, my not-so-friendly Arrow Gas Company in Rochdale Massachusetts fined me $150.00 for running out of gas, even though they installed a self reading gas meter which does not work, and which I could not read because the locked a cap over it. Nice.

I've always been fascinated with Massonias, but have never purchased one as I'm not sure they would do well here in the low desert. I know one grower who does marvelous things with several of the plants you've named, along with 1000s of Mesembs, but every time I've purchased something from him, it lasts 2 months--and is gone almost overnight. I follow his instructions to the letter, and it happens anyway. Guess I'll just keep admiring other peoples exotic plants!ReplyDelete
The Oxalis is a pretty, cool unique plant. I received one for my birthday and it's the only plant I've managed to keep alive and healthy. After one year, it's still looking good. You can find the Oxalis and more at City Florist.ReplyDelete

Do Chinese Restaurants Shop for Gyoza at Trader Joe's?Posted: August 9th, 2010 | Author: Danielle Morrill | Filed under: Appetizers, Chinese, Cooking, Eating Out, Vegetable Oil | View Comments
I love gyoza, also referred to as potstickers. I think it is the yummiest appetizer in all of Asian cuisine, and I can eat just gyoza for an entire meal. Fill it with pork, chicken, beef or "mystery meat" and I'll eat it. For those of you not in the know, gyoza is a Chinese dumpling that is filled with meat and either steamed or fried (often a combination of the two). Gyoza is what the Japanese call it, generally Chinese restaurants will call them potstickers.
Gyoza usually isn't cheap when you consider what you're getting, a plate of 6-8 can easily set you back $6-$10. At good restaurants they make the dough and filling, and hand form the dumpings, so you're paying for the labor.
Imagine my surprise when I went Trader Joe's tonight and noticed pre-made gyoza in the frozen section. I couldn't resist, so I brought them home and decided I'd see if I could recreate the same yumminess in my kitchen. Each bag contained three servings of 7 pieces, 270 calories per serving (before the oil and the sauces). Sounds about right – 3 servings is a filling dinner (with a lot of salt).
I followed the instructions, cooking them a little longer than they suggested so they'd get that nice crispy texture. It takes 7 minutes to:
- heat a frying pan (while it is empty) on medium/high
- add 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil (they suggested 2, whatever, I like my fat)
- add the whole bag of gyoza once the oil is hot
- let the gyoza brown, turning occasionally (be gentle) — they suggested 1 minute but I did it for 4 to get crispier
- turn the heat down to low
- add 1/4 cup water to the pan and cover so the steam will warm them all the way through – 2 or 3 minutes
- pour gyoza into a strainer to remove the excess oil and water, serve
So there you go!
Immediately, I noticed that these gyoza are a particular size and shape – and I've seen the exact same size/shape repeated at LOTS of restaurants. I think there are tons of Asian restaurants shopping at Trader Joe's or Costco or some other bulk restaurant retailer and we've been paying $1/gyoza when I just made 20 of them for $3! I'm rethinking my whole gyoza strategy, from now on I am going to ask if they make their own dumplings fresh and from scratch. If not, I'm not ordering – because I can make them at home and never risk a soggy gyoza again.

District Judge David Dickinson, who has served on the bench for 14 years, announced this week he will retire at the end of February.
Im looking forward to sailing and traveling and so forth, he said Friday during an interview. Ive been privileged to work with some wonderful people, both judges and court staff, as well as the bar. I cant imagine a more rewarding career.
Dickinsons retirement creates a new opening for a district judge in the 6th Judicial District.
A nominating commission will meet Feb. 26 at the La Plata County Courthouse to interview and select nominees for appointment by the governor.
It is the second opening for a district judgeship within a year in the district, which includes Archuleta, San Juan and La Plata counties. The state last year created a new district judge position, which was filled by Suzanne Carlson.
Dickinson, 67, was appointed in December 1998. Before that, he was in private practice in Durango specializing in real estate, commercial and business litigation, and local government law.
Before entering private practice, he served as an attorney for La Plata County and assistant attorney for the city and county of Denver. He received his undergraduate degree in metallurgical engineering in 1964 from the Colorado School of Mines and his law degree in 1976 from the University of Denver.
Serving as district judge has had its rewards and challenges, Dickinson said. He was forced to learn areas of law that he hadnt dealt with before, he said.
If youre an attorney, you try to limit your areas of practice to things you know and do well, he said. As a judge, you take whatever comes down the pike, especially in a jurisdiction like this where we all have mixed dockets.
The hardest cases are those involving children, especially dependency and termination of parental rights cases, he said.
Most of it just tears your heart out, Dickinson said.
Dickinson said he plans to spend winter months in Mexico, but will keep a house in Durango or Bayfield.
To be eligible for the vacancy, applicants must be a voter in the 6th Judicial District and must have been admitted to practice law in Colorado for five years.
The annual salary for the position is $128,598.
The initial term of office of a district judge is a provisional term of two years. After that, voters decide whether to retain the judge for a term of six years.
The members of the nominating commission are Lisa Scott and James Ford of Pagosa Springs; Stephen Fearn of Silverton; and John Baxter, Thomas Shipps, Robert Oswald and Gary Lindsay of Durango.

K: Keep an emergency plan. Despite all of the above, incidents of underage drinking still occur. Don't naïvely assume that your children will avoid all social settings that involve alcohol. Come up with a code word they can say or text to you that will let you know they are in a situation where they are uncomfortable. That word is your cue to get them out of there.

SYCAMORE – It's an experience you can't get anywhere else, a history you won't find in any other book, and a testament to what it took to maintain Sycamore's manufacturing might and keep improving the city.
Sycamore History Museum will host a book release event, including a panel discussion, at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 25, at the DeKalb County Community Foundation, 475 DeKalb Ave. in Sycamore, for the book "Why Sycamore Works."
"This work goes a long way to personify and document the challenges and opportunities which provided the fire in the belly to perfect and purify that which was, is, and will be Sycamore, a great place to live, work, learn, worship and play," Sycamore Mayor Ken Mundy said.
Mundy was invited to sit on the panel, as were the Sycamore business leaders featured in the book: Harold Engh Jr., Bob Boey, Dean Copple, Bob Davis and Clint Gittleson. William Swedberg, who also contributed his recollections to the book, died early this year. The group will discuss Sycamore's past, the city's manufacturing history, and the men who gave time and experiences to the book project.
The book contains the oral histories of six Sycamore business leaders selected for their in-depth knowledge and involvement in the Sycamore community. It focuses on Turner Corporation, Anaconda Wire and Cable, and DuPlex Products Inc, from the 1950s to the 1980s, a crucial period in the development of Sycamore.
Author Robert A. Glover, volunteer archivist for the Sycamore History Museum, conducted the project, funded by the Illinois Humanities Council and the Illinois Association of Museums.
"The book complements the 2010-2011 award-winning Sycamore History Museum exhibit and helps develop the historical themes and trends that arose in the transformation of local manufacturing," Glover said.

BEDLAM Live In Binghampton 1974
The main part of the album is hindered only slightly by the quality of the original recordings, but, nonetheless, really highlights the talents of a band firing on all cylinders and has me missing the firepower that these guys – especially the sorely missed Cozy Powell – could produce, whether together or separately, within the confines of another group.
zacharymule.com (March 2015)
The ante's upped with the catchy funk of 'Set Me Free' where rhythm section excels in a cohesive jive while guitar rips and roars before all instrumentalists engage in an infectious dance around the riff.
DMME.net (February 2014)
This live album is definitely to be filed under 'power rock' – the opener 'I Believe in You', is very like Deep Purple in sound, but the other tracks show a leaning towards the blues-rock. The recording was pieced together by Denny using a computer program called Cool Edit and the sound quality is excellent. Also featured is an interview with the band undertaken in the middle of the broadcast, before they launched into the epic 21-minute track called 'The Fool', which features amazing solos.
Bolton News (November 2013)
Billed as one of the hardest working like bands of the early '70s, and just a few tracks into this you are hard pushed to doubt it.
The pure energy of this set recorded on a US tour is immense. Formed by ex-Procol Harum guitarist Dave Ball, Bedlam were a classic rock band right out of the Cream school of super groups…This album gives an insight into what might have been. If Powell hadn't derailed Bedlam with his own solo success they could have been one of the biggest rock bands of the '70s.
Daily Echo (November 2013)
…the sound quality of the original 5 track live show – which is bolstered here by an interview with the band and a studio remix of 'The Beast' – really is excellent, and as stated previously the musicianship is of the highest quality (as you would expect). Just listen out for some blistering (almost Blackmore-esque) guitar work from Dave Ball on 'The Fool', a track which also includes a thundering bass and drum workout from Denny and Cozy which in typical mid '70s fashion clocks in at a staggering 21 minutes plus. Phew!
'Live In Binghampton 1974′ then is an intriguing piece of musical history, not least because I found out that a place called Binghampton actually exists.
Uber Rock (November 2013)
The members of Bedlam included Powell on drums, Dave Ball (ex-Procol Harum) on guitar, Denny Ball on bass, and vocalist Frank Aiello. These guys delivered some scorching blues rock/proto metal, featuring Ball's searing lead guitar work upfront and center, Aiello's powerful vocals, and the furious rhythms of Powell & Ball.
"I Believe in You" kicks off this set with some heavy rock riffs from Ball, a scorcher of a track that needs to be heard to be believed…The band get their Cream/Free groove on with "Set Me Free", a down & dirty heavy blues rocker, again with Ball firing off some scalding riffs & solos while Cozy plays like a man possessed underneath.
Sea Of Tranquillity (October 2013)
BEDLAM Bedlam In Command 1973
…it's the ensemble's telepathy that's on display here, and their command of the crowd. Sadly, their span was limited – the fact which renders the BEDLAM energy condensed and explosive to this day. ****1/3
DME Music Site
This set was taped on 22nd October 1973 – the date does have some significance – at the Command Studios Theatre in London and features, as you may expect, four extremely talented musicians contributing both individually and collectively to a hefty wodge of driving Seventies' hard rock, not dissimilar to the overall sound of Nazareth, Uriah Heep and the like (in fact opener 'I Believe In You' could easy be Uriah Heep without the keys).
The extended work-out that is 'Sarah' together with 'Seven Long Years' (linked by some superb solo tub-thumping by Powell) ably showcase what Bedlam were all about – catchy songs, fluid solos and pure instrumental virtuosity – as does 'The Fool': an eleven-minute monster that comes over all slow 'n' bluesy at first before shifting gear and allowing firstly the bass-playing Ball and then his six-string brother to strut their stuff…
John Tucker (April 2012)
The album offers nine tracks plus the bonus "Dance With the Devil", a breakthrough single, reaching third place in the UK charts, in this case a version played by the whole band. The sound is obviously very nostalgic and there are all the elements typical of the genre, a solid rhythmic base and exceptionally brilliant drumming…
…what matters is that it's good rock music, at times you can also reach very high levels, as in "The Fool", a song that is really full of emotions in its more than eleven minutes…
Rock Impressions
For this re-release, the original tapes of an October 1973 gig featuring most of their one studio album have been baked and enhanced. The results prove that brothers Dave Ball on guitar and Dennis Ball on bass were no slouches, and the voice of Frank Aiello (Gary Holton meets Noddy Holder) should clearly be more widely celebrated.
Classic Rock Magazine
Another quality archive release from heritage label Angel Air, In Command 73 marks a live recording from Bedlam, the band featuring the much missed Cozy Powell, undoubtedly one of the foremost hard rock drummers of all time.
Bedlam were only around for 12 months or so and together with Cozy the other members were Dave Ball (guitars), Denny Ball (bass) and vocalist Frank Aiello.
This performance was recording in London on October 22nd and was originally devised as a promotional aid to help launch the band in the US. There is a bonus track in the shape of Bedlam's version of Cozy's big hit "Dance With The Devil" although this is taken from an early '74 TV broadcast and the quality is below par when compared with that of the gig itself.
Bedlam were all about solid 70′s hard rock and comparisons with Mountain and Cream would not be far from the mark. Powell unleashes his customary drum solo as an intro to 'Seven Long Years' and Ball's riffs and solos are raw and aggressive, complemented by Aiello's powerful and bluesy vocal delivery.
At eleven minutes plus, 'The Fool' shows Bedlam really stretching out with extended instrumental passages highlighting the chemistry between the musicians. 'Dance With The Devil' would be the catalyst that set Powell on his way to a career with Rainbow, Whitesnake, Black Sabbath and ELP amongst others but for Bedlam in marked the end of the road as they went their separate ways.
A fascinating release for fans of the 70′s and Powell in particular.

Mushkin 997070 16GB & 994071 32GB Redline Memory Review
Memory capacities keep rising it seems with each new platform that comes out. Along with the increase in capacities comes an increase in speed that drives latency down and responsiveness higher. Intel's X79 platform has the ability to utilize up to 64GB of system memory in a quad channel configuration while the Z77 platform is still limited to dual channel configurations with four DIMM slots rather than the eight available on most X79 boards. Ivy Bridge processors like the Intel Third Generation Core i7 3770K can still take advantage of up to 32GB of system memory due to the incredible memory controllers they have for the most part and can use this capacity with all four DIMM slots populated. Content creation is one of the drivers for increasing capacities with some programs actually utilizing up to 64GB of system memory to process the work stream.
At CES this year I saw more than a few demos with DRAM suppliers set up to show off what kind of performance the additional capacities can provide in terms of usability and the user experience mainly in terms of content creation. Today what I have to look at are a pair of modules from Mushkin. Each of the kits part numbers 997070 and 994071 utilize 8GB DIMMs to provide the 16GB and 32GB capacities of these Redline enthusiast level kits. Both offer timings of 10-10-10-27 at 1866MHz using just 1.5v applied to reach these latencies and speeds. Both sets are equipped with the latest versions of the Frostbyte (997070) and Ridgeback (994071) heat shields to deliver excellent cooling performance in any situation. Priced competitively at $129 for the 16GB kit and $259 for the 32GB kit, Mushkin is bringing the value and performance cards to the table. Let's see what these modules have to offer in terms of memory performance and overclocking to see if we still get "More"!
Closer Look:
Packaging for the 16GB Redline modules is a standard clamshell that securely holds the modules in place. Offering a full view of the modules, the front of the package shows the modules against the latest Mushkin messaging that includes the Mushkin Enhanced logo and "Get More" slogan. That is something that has held true in just about every set I have looked at going back several years. The back side of the packaging has a brief set of installation instructions, the part number (997070), capacity 916GB) and latencies (10-10-10-27). Basic but effective.
Starting with part number 997070 we have a 16GB kit of modules. Mushkin's 997070 16GB kit is designed to run at 1866MHz with latencies of 10-10-10-27 using just 1.5v in lieu of a more popular rating of 1.65v. This kit is equipped with Mushkin's Frostbyte heat shield that has proven so successful over the years. The sleek slim design has been a staple of Mushkin's modules. The Redline logo adorns one side with the Mushkin Enhanced logo and warranty tag on the other. The warranty tag shows the speed, latency, voltage and capacity. These module are supported with Mushkin's Lifetime Warranty in case there is ever a failure. What is interesting with these modules is that the Frostbyte heat shield design has changed with the removal of the clips that were used in the past to hold the modules together.
The packaging of the 994071 modules is a step above the clam shell design used on the 997070 kit. The package is designed to hold a "Quad Pack" or four modules. The front of the package has a window that shows the contents; in this case a quartet of Mushkin's Redline Ridgeback equipped modules. Prominently displayed on the front of the package is the Mushkin Enhanced logo and "Get More" slogan. The bottom right has the SKU tag with information about the capacity and rated speed. The rear panel has a list of attributes that include Enhanced Bandwidth, Optimized Timings, a Lifetime Warranty and that all of the Mushkin Performance modules are hand tested. That is something OCC was privileged enough to see when we visited Mushkin's facility last year. Inside the package are two clamshell packages that hold the four modules that make up this quad pack kit.
Part number 994071 is part of Mushkin's Redline lineup and is rated to run at speeds of 1866MHz using the latencies of 10-10-10-27 with 1.5v much like the 16GB 997070 kit. To reach the 32GB capacity of the kit, four 8GB modules are used instead of the two used to build up the 16GB kit. As part of the Redline lineup these modules are designed for the enthusiast. Equipped with the Ridgeback heat shield, these modules are designed to handle a higher thermal loading than the Frostbyte design. The angled fins allow the design to easily shed the thermal load of 1.5v as well as up to the 1.7v I used in my overclocking tests. The front side of the modules have the Mushkin Enhanced logo and warranty decal that provides the specifications for this kit. The opposite side has the Redline logo in bold script. A lifetime warranty is standard on this kit in case something does go wrong. Mushkin has been in business for close to 20 years and it stands behind its products.
Each of these kits is rated at 1866MHz and should provide decent performance at this speed along with the capacity to cover just about any demand.

Also, it was REALLY smart of Misty to pretend that she already found the immunity idol. I never would have thought of that.
However, Tina came off as weird which is always bad. The problem is definitely that nobody knew her son just died so they were just voting off the person who seemed the most disattached.
As for Misty and saying she has the Immunity Idol I wonder how Survivor willl handle that one..they'll have to tell the next person that gets sent to Exile Island otherwise they may not look for it thinking it's already been found.
P.S.-Did anyone else happen to see during the Immunity Challenge that Cirie was *Hanging out.* ...and I don't mean in a good way.

A voiding cystourethrogram is an
Alternative Names
Cystourethrogram - voiding
How the test is performed
The test is performed in a hospital radiology department or in a health care providers office by an x-ray technician.
You will lie on your back on the x-ray table. A thin, flexible tube called a catheter will be gently inserted into the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body) and passed into the bladder.
Contrast dye flows through the catheter into the bladder. This dye helps the bladder show up better on x-ray images.
The x-rays are taken from various angles while the bladder is full of contrast dye. The catheter is removed so that you can urinate. Images are taken while you empty your bladder.
How to prepare for the test
You must sign a consent form. You will be given a gown to wear.
Remove all jewelry before the test. Inform the health care provider if you are:
- Allergic to any medications
- Allergic to x-ray contrast material
- Pregnant
How the test will feel
You may feel some discomfort when the catheter is placed and while your bladder is full.
Why the test is performed
This test may be done to diagnose the cause of urinary tract infections, especially in children who have had more than one urinary tract or bladder infection.
It is also used to diagnose and evaluate:
- Difficulty emptying the bladder
- Birth defects with the bladder or urethra
- Narrowing of the tube that carries urine out of the bladder (
urethral stricture) in males
- Urinary reflux from the bladder up into the kidney
Normal Values
The bladder and urethra will be normal in size and function.
What abnormal results mean
Abnormal results may indicate the following:
- Bladder does not empty properly because of a brain or nerve problem
(neurogenic bladder) Large prostate gland
- Narrowing or scarring of the urethra
- Pouch-like sacs (diverticula) on the walls of the bladder or urethra
Ureterocele Urinary reflux nephropathy
What the risks are
You may have some discomfort when urinating after this test because of irritation from the catheter.
You may have bladder spasms after this test, which may be a sign of an

Hi guys,
I'm just up to the PENSUM A of lingua latina, and one of the last sentences..
Most of these 'fill in the blanks' are quite easy, and I have managed them pretty much off the top of my head now, without having to look back. But when I did need to look back, i found the example from previous pages, and then i saw how it should be.
however, there' s a couple of these that i'm not so sure of.
"A et B litter- Latin- sunt. C quoque litter- Latin- est. Multi et pauci vocabul- Latin- sunt. .... "
The first there i know.
"A et B litterae Latinae sunt. C quoque littera Latina est.[/b]"
But when he gets to Multi ...etc etc..... i am a bit suprised...
As far as I have experienced so far, in the cases I have seen, the endings for vocabul- are:
-a, -um
-o where used after 'IN'.
eg. "Fluvius" et "oppidum" vocabula Latina sunt. "Ubi" quoque vocabulum Latinum est. In vocabulo ubi sunt tres litterae.
However, I am used to these words, the plural or singular agreeing, eg
In Arabia non multi, sed pauci fluvii sunt et pauca oppida.
Here, pauci agrees with fluvii, and pauca agrees with oppida.
How do I make the words agree here though:
Multi et pauci vocabuli Latini sunt ?? that just looks wrong..
yet the book sets me up to use '-i' as the ending, because we already have the words 'Multi etc pauci'.
I would have rather expected something like this:
Multa et pauca vocabula Latina sunt.
How should it be?
Thanks in advance!

Our friends at LearnVest offer sound financial tips and advice for every aspect of life. Check out these personal finance tips everyone should know about.
Just before the Enron scandal broke, the company's CEO immediately put his money into annuities — in his wife's name.
Why? Because those assets are creditor-protected, so they can't be seized (in this case, by the government).
This is just one example of many — remember the 14-percent tax rate Mitt Romney paid on his $13 million income? — illustrating how extremely wealthy people get the most from their money. And, most of them do it legally.
Much of their success comes from knowing where to find loopholes in the financial system — "hacks," if you will. While we would never recommend any illegal or dishonest money moves (seriously, don't break the law!), there are a handful of legal personal finance hacks that are available to all of us — like these incredibly useful, low-profile tricks.
Borrow against your home's equity
This hack is for homeowners, but it's good for everyone to know about should you ever decide to buy a home.
How It Works: Instead of having the bank front you the money you need through a personal loan, you borrow against your home's equity. (As a reminder, equity is the difference between the total of your mortgage and the appraised value of your home.)
The benefit here is two-fold: Since you've already been approved for a mortgage, the process will be less involved for this loan. You'll need to get your home appraised, but your lender should be able to walk you through the process. Second, interest payments on home equity loans are typically tax-deductible, unlike interest on personal loans.
Lenders probably won't give you an amount equivalent to the entire equity — you'll get more like 75 percent, at most. But if you have equity of $100,000, that's $75,000 you may be able to borrow. This is a great option if you're planning to stay in your home for a while, and your home is worth more than what you paid for it.
If your home is worth less than your mortgage, you have little equity or you'll be moving soon, this hack is not for you. And, a word of caution: If you go this route, you must be vigilant about making timely payments on your loan — since you're borrowing against your home, you could lose it if you fall behind on those payments.
Pay down debt using a zero-interest credit card
For this hack, you need either a respectable credit score in order to apply for a new card or an existing credit card with zero interest.
How It Works: The most insidious part of carrying a large balance on your card is the interest that you're paying on that balance, which can be as much as 20 percent. With this hack, you're making a balance transfer to another card to avoid paying that interest.
This maneuver only works with cards that don't charge interest. Luckily, many credit cards offer an initial promotion of zero interest for up to 18 months when you open a new card. If you're carrying considerable debt that you intend to pay off within the 18-month period, you can do a balance transfer (essentially, you're paying off the interest-bearing card using the new card, so your balance appears on a new bill) to pay down your debt without interest.
There is a charge for the balance transfer — usually around 3 percent of the amount that you're transferring — so if you have a very small balance on your card, this might not be the hack for you. The idea is that your would-have-been interest payments cost more than the balance transfer fees. You can figure out how much money you'll save with this maneuver by using a credit card balance calculator. Note that your credit score will get dinged when you open a new card because you're changing your utilization rate, but in the grand scheme of things, this ding doesn't compare to the full-on wreck that is major credit card debt.
Use a Roth IRA to save for college
This hack is useful if you're saving for a child's college tuition because it gets around the limited use of 529 accounts. That said, Roth IRAs do come with income limitations: You can contribute to a Roth IRA to the limit if your adjusted gross income is less than $112,000 filing alone, and $178,000 if you're married filing jointly, so consult your tax advisor before giving this idea a try.
How It Works: A 529 plan is a state-run college savings account. (You can look into the particulars of your state's program here). It's not federal income tax-deductible (although some states let you to deduct some of your contributions on your state income taxes), but it does allow you to pull out funds for college tax-free. The downside of a 529 plan is that if and when you apply for financial aid (by filling out the FAFSA form), the money in this account is considered part of your family's assets. For some families, having savings in a 529 counted as an asset lessens the chances of getting financial aid.
One of the things that we say again and again is that you shouldn't take money out of a retirement account. There are penalty fees, and it's basically self-sabotage … with one exception. That exception is withdrawing the principal — the money you contributed, and not the interest it has earned — from your Roth IRA.
We don't generally recommend this maneuver, but if you're in a tight spot, it might work for you. Money saved in retirement accounts doesn't count toward a family's assets, so you can save money for college in a Roth IRA, apply and possibly qualify for financial aid without declaring those assets. Then you can simply withdraw those savings when it's time to pay. For example, you and your spouse could each contribute $5,500 (the maximum contribution for 2013) for a total of $11,000 a year. In 15 years, your principal will be $82,500, which you can withdraw to pay for college without penalty.
Something else to know: Retirement accounts are generally creditor-protected, so they can't be seized by creditors. With 529 accounts, the rules vary by state.
