"The center of the universe is, of course, that marvelous land known as Fraggle Rock. It is thus called because it is a rock and Fraggles live there. Fraggles are a noble race - fearless, dignified, intellectual. They represent the very pinnacle of civilization and culture. A Fraggle is most assuredly the best of all possible creatures."
Fraggle Rock is an enormous rock, containing innumerable caves and tunnels. It is the home of the Fraggles, Doozers, and countless other species.[1] (In the UK version, Fraggle Rock is also the name of the rock where the Lighthouse is located).
An exposed portion of the Rock lies in a corner of the Gorgs' Garden. Although the Gorgs consider the Fraggles to be garden pests, they consider the Rock itself to be sacred, calling it "Kissing Rock." The Rock also extends under the garden to the Doozers' radish mines.
The Rock is a magical place, and one part opens into Doc's Workshop in Outer Space (the Lighthouse in the UK version). The interior of the rock is centered around the Great Hall, which also contains the Fraggle Pond, whose water is supplied by Doc's pipes. Living quarters include Gobo and Wembley's Room, Boober's Hole, and Red and Mokey's Room. The Storyteller has her own home, with door and entranceway even, and Convincing John's Cave lays on the outskirts, past the paths used by the Doozers.
Although it is an underground world, the caves are brightly lit, due to the presence of tiny bioluminescent creatures called Ditzies. Ditzies live on music, which the Fraggles produce in abundance.
Behind the scenes
As explained in The Muppets Big Book of Crafts, the cave sets were made of modeling clay on chicken-wire frames. Producer Lawrence Mirkin explained in an interview that the sets were modular: they were built in pieces that could be moved around and recombined to create "a zillion different sets" at "twenty minutes' notice."
- ↑ According to press materials provided to the January 2, 1983 issue of the Arizona Public, the Rock is home to 10,000 Fraggles and 10 million Doozers.

As a daily reporter on the nerd media for over a decade, sometimes The Beat likes to sit back and take it all in. And of late there have been some telling moves that show how the nerd media/new media is putting the boots to the old media that STILL just Doesn't Get It.
First there's l'afffair Geoff Boucher. Boucher, one of the LA Times top entertainment reporters launched his Hero Complex blog in 2008, at the tale end of the Golden Age of Blogging.

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South African Richard Sterne, looking to go one better than his runner-up finish at last week's Dubai Desert Classic, fired an eight-under 63 to share the Joburg Open first-round lead on Thursday.
The 31-year-old, playing on his home Royal Johannesburg and Kensington Golf Club, produced six birdies and a chip-in eagle at the ninth to join German rookie Maximilian Kieffer at the top of the leaderboard.
"Some days it feels good and everything kind of happens," 2008 Joburg Open champion Sterne told reporters.
"Golf is strange - you've got to hit the right kind of shots at the right time. I hit 17 greens today so I was never really in trouble at all," added the five-times European Tour winner.
Second-tier Challenge Tour graduate Kieffer, 22, like Sterne playing on the easier West Course, sprinkled his round with eight birdies.
South African Bryce Easton recorded a hole-in-one at the par-three 12th on the East Course on his way to taking third place on 65.
Britain's Ross McGowan was in the hunt going into the closing holes but he bogeyed the 16th and 17th to finish with a 67.
Norwegian Espen Kofstad also looked like he might grab a share of the lead before a triple-bogey seven on the 18th meant he ended up with a 66.
World number 18 Charl Schwartzel, the highest-ranked player in the field at the European Tour event, opened with a 68 on the East Course.

The story behind these fabrics is a good learning lesson for anyone who buys fabric off the Internet. I saw the tartan fabric and instantly thought, "Rupert bear trousers" - as you do. When I asked the seller what the composition was she said, "I don't know, but it has some wool in it." It was cheap, so I took a risk. When it arrived it was immediately obvious that it was upholstery fabric.
So I made them in to cushion covers for our reading pillows. I just used whatever we had on hand to fasten the back closures - a heavy zipper applied externally and a button flap.
The new couch cushions though, were 'internet buying lesson' in BOLD and CAPITALS.
I saw the fabric, liked it, and put an auto bid on. Several days later, I noticed that the description had changed to include evidence of damage. Was that added later or was it always there and I was too quick to put in a bid to read properly? I didn't know, and that worried me, because obviously I wasn't paying enough attention.
Then when the fabric arrived it had sun fade and 3 hems. Yes, not only was it heavily damaged it had also been heavily used - a salient fact the seller failed to mention.
She offered to refund, but I would have lost half the value in return postage so declined - better to have something to show for it. I made these cushions and they are nice. They won't last - the fabric has several small wear and tear holes that can only get bigger.
My experiences have not put me off buying vintage fabric from the Internet - after all, it is the only place to buy it these days. However, I've developed a little protocol:
1) always read the description carefully
2) ask for verification of fabric if in doubt- has the seller done a burn test?
3) work out in advance what the fabric is worth to me, and never exceed that price in the auction
4) place auto-bids only a day or two before the auction closes, to allow for "updates" from the seller
5) accept that the fabric will be different from what I expected and be prepared to change project.
Overall, I'm really happy with way I selvaged these dud purchases. Do you have any sour Internet fabric purchases? Do share.

Boston doctors launch new journal focused on changes in the health care system
A pair of Boston physicians with experience working on national health policy are launching a new journal focused on changes in the health care system, including new payment methods. Drs. Sachin H. Jain and Amol Navathe expect the first issue of Health Care: The Journal of Delivery Science and Innovation to be published next summer.
Jain and Navathe began planning the journal, which will be published by Elsevier, while in D.C. together last year. Jain, who now sees patients at VA Boston and holds posts at Harvard Medical School and Merck & Co., was an advisor to Dr. Donald Berwick, then administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Navathe was a medical officer in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation. He is a physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital and has appointments at Harvard Medical School and The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
"We were struck by the fact that there were sort of gaps in the research that's being produced,'' Jain said. "There's so much change in the world in health care right now, but there aren't a lot of venues to publish about that change.''
Another gap they noticed was between researchers and policymakers, he said. The journal's leaders plan to coach researchers about how to get their work into policymakers hands and will host forums to that end.
Jain said the journal will emphasize case studies as a means of exploring how people are changing the way health care works. And the group is looking for research from relative newcomers to publishing, including people who might lack the background or academic connections to get their work into top journals.
Health Affairs has been publishing about health policy for two decades, and the New England Journal of Medicine includes work about health care delivery. But, Jain said, "there's a totally new health care context that's developing. We need more than just one or two great journals in this space.''
The journal's board of directors includes several health policy experts from Massachusetts. Among them are Institute for Healthcare Improvement President Maureen Bisognano, Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates Vice President for Clinician Development Dr. Les Schwab, and Dr. David Blumenthal, the chief health information and innovation officer at Partners Healthcare who will become president of the Commonwealth Fund starting in January.

Christoph Willibald von Gluck
Christoph Willibald von Gluck (1714-1787), Bohemian-German composer, was born in Bohemia, studied in Prague, where he worked as an organist, then moved to Vienna before spending the next decade or so travelling and working in various parts of Europe. He settled back in Vienna in 1752 where he wrote works in both the Italian and French styles. By 1752 he was well enough thought of to be given a court pension.
In 1761 with the poet, Calzabigi, he wrote the ballet-pantomime "Don Juan". This work is the first of its kind to marry the music and the dance as an integrated dramatic whole; and prefigured his first so-called "reform-opera", "Orfeo ed Euridice", staged the next year.[1] Another opera using these same dramatic techniques, "Alceste" was performed in 1767, before Gluck decided to change from the Italian style to the French. Among original works he adapted "Orfeo ed Euridice" for the French stage, which was a roaring success but brought him into direct conflict with those who preferred the Italian style, represented by one Niccolo Piccinni. Gluck remained immensely popular until a failed opera in 1779 made him decide to retire. He wrote very little more until his death in 1787.
Gluck is one of those composers whose value to his art is far greater than the sum of his compositions. In his "reform operas" he managed with simplicity and clarity to find a balance between music and drama – even to dissolve each within the other. He chose plots that had a dramatic simplicity based on understandable human emotions. Technically, he was not a great composer, but he by-passed any shortcomings with his ability to portray psychological insight in music, tender or passionate, gentle or vigorous, through which the listener can immediately sense the truth of the drama.
His more popular operas are still regularly performed and recorded. Orfeo's great lament - in English known as "What is life to me without thee…" - is one of the most recorded of all mezzo or alto arias. As well as complete recordings, parts of Don Juan and Orpheo ed Euridice are on many compilation CDs.
- The "von" in his name comes from a Papal knighthood.

Twitter for iPhone (Tweetie 3.0) now available
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Social Networking, App Updates, New Apps, Free Apps,
Tweetie has been pretty much universally recognized as the best iPhone Twitter client since it launched, and Tweetie 2.0 took it to the next level. In fact, it was so good, that Twitter decided to buy the app outright, rather than building their own iPhone app. News soon came that Tweetie would become "Twitter for iPhone" and would be made free (Tweetie sold for $2.99) to anyone who wanted it. Well, today is that day, as Tweetie 3.0 has been released with new features (we've got a list of them after the break) and is now simply known as Twitter. It's full-featured, it's the official Twitter app for the iPhone, and therefore it will have access to more Twitter resources than any other Twitter app out there. We recommend it highly, and you can download it now.

You download the free app and sign up, and they send you a free credit card reader that hooks into the audio jack on your device. From there, whether you are a big business, small coffee shop, a seller at the flea market, or just wanna collect half the check from your friend after dining out, you can can accept a credit card payment right on your phone. The video above explains it way better than we can, but the news here is that Square is now available for iPhone and iPad, as well as Android.

Marvel Comics iPad app video demo
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Books, iPad Apps, Videos, Free Apps,
One of the more exciting iPad apps that shows off what may be the future of literature and reading is the Marvel Comics app. Setting aside the whole problem where you can't share the comics, and can't sell or give away the old comics you've purchased and build community around it, we must say, it looks pretty slick.

Netflix Streaming iPad app now available
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Entertainment, iPad Apps, Free Apps,
For anyone concerned about a lack of killer apps on the iPad that would differentiate it from the iPhone or oPod touch, we bring you news that the Netflix iPad app is now available for download for free from the App Store, and it includes Instant Streaming. That's right, if you've got your iPad connected to a Wi-Fi network, you can use it to watch the entire catalogue of Netflix Watch Instantly movies and TV shows, right on your iPad. In addition, you can add movies to your queue, rearrange things, and everything else you'd expect to do with your Netflix membership.
Of course, none of this will work unless you are a Netflix member, but if you are, you can start enjoying the 20,000+ titles available on the service right from your iPad on Saturday. Oh, and for the record, the app currently works only on the iPad - there is no Netflix app available yet for the iPhone or iPod touch.

Amazon Kindle app for iPad
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Books, Free Apps,
Just like the Barnes & Noble iPad app that we talked about previously, an Amazon Kindle app that is specifically made and formatted for the iPad is also on the way. The folks over at the New York Times were able to get a look at it, and it sounds fairly similar to what we saw from Apple with their iBooks app. You can control the speed of a page turn with your finger, and it has a couple of new ways for people to view their entire eBook library. One of those, above, shows books covers with a background of someone reading a book under a tree. The position of the sun in the background changes depending on the time of day, which is fairly cool.
We find the whole things with both B&N and Amazon rushing to get their eBook reader apps ready for the iPad to be very interesting. In a nutshell, the iPad is now the only mobile device that will let you read eBooks purchased from Apple, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble. All the other devices are tied to one store. Between the eBook stores, and apps like Instapaper, the iPad is prepped to be the most feature-rich eBook reader on the planet, and that doesn't even take any of its other features into account.

Barnes and Noble readying iPad app in time for launch
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Books, App Store News, Free Apps,
Looks like Apple isn't the only company looking to capitalize on the iPad hype in order to sell eBooks. Barnes & Noble has just made it public knowledge that they plan on releasing an iPad-optimized version of the B&N reader app, with the goal being to have it ready in the App Store on day one. We must say, we like it. In fact, this may cement the iPad as the best reader device around, because you've got the B&N app, the Kindle app, and of course, the Apple iBooks app as well (among others.) This means that you can purchase a book in any of those three ebook marketplaces, and read them all on your iPad. That's something you just can't do with a Kindle or nook. Let's just hope that Apple doesn't give these apps the same treatment that they've given to others, like Google Voice.
Aura Cacia announces aromatherapy app
Posted by Finnian Durkan Categories: Reference, Free Apps,
Aura Cacia is a nationally branded Aromatherapy product provider and today has leaped dredlocked and pachouli-soaked head-first into the smartphone world with their new iPhone app. Now you can learn about the history and benefits of aromatherapy without having to worry about getting sandalwood oil all over your iPhone touch-screen. While the app does have different factoids and bits of information regarding aromatherapy treatments and different combinations of oils, it is merely an information source and not a diagnostic tool like many other similar iPhone apps in the same arena. Considering it is free, I guess you get what you pay for.

The Dodge Ram Van 1500 is the full-size cargo van equivalent of the Ram pickup truck.
While Dodge's van was technically introduced in the 1970s as the Dodge Tradesman, the vehicle was redubbed with the Ram nameplate in 1981. The 1500 model officially debuted in 1995, when Dodge changed the name of its Ram Van B150 to the Ram Van 1500 in order to remain more consistent with its Ram pickups.
As with Ram trucks, Dodge names Ram vans by weight. The Dodge Ram Van 1500 is the half-ton model in the van series. A passenger-only version known as the Dodge Ram Wagon 1500 is also offered.
The first Dodge Ram Van 1500 features a 3.9-liter, 175-horsepower V-6 engine paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. This engine remains standard throughout the Ram Van 1500's lifespan. As with later models, all Ram Vans have a rear-drive system, a sliding side door, and twin rear doors. Regular and extended versions are also available.
The Ram Van 1500 was produced until 2003, when DaimlerChrysler replaced the van with the Mercedes-based Dodge Sprinter.
The Dodge Ram Van 1500 is best known for its basic utility and, in older models, its affordable resale price. The model has proven popular for many service jobs from plumbing to installing cable TV.
While standard features on the Ram Van 1500 are fairly bare-bones, it's hard to beat the amount of cargo space it offers. The Dodge Ram Van 1500 has just two seats, leaving the rest of the interior open for storage. Base models include a total cargo capacity of 200 cubic feet, while the extended Maxi increases cargo volume to 294.6 cubic feet.
The standard 3.9-liter engine allows the Ram Van 1500 to tow up to 5,950 pounds and carry up to 2,410 pounds. Upgrading to the Ram Van 3500's standard 5.2-liter V-8 engine increases maximum towing capacity to 8,600 pounds and its maximum payload to 3,070 pounds.
The Ram Van 1500 is also known for low gas mileage ratings. Paired with the standard three-speed automatic transmission, the van is EPA-rated at just 13/15 mpg city/highway. To help counteract the low fuel efficiency, Dodge equipped standard wheelbase models with a 32-gallon gas tank and extended models with a 35-gallon tank.
The last Dodge Ram Van 1500 was produced in 2003.
The 2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500 contains a 3.9-liter V-6 engine that produces 175 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque. A 5.2-liter, 225-horsepower V-8 engine, standard on the larger Ram Van 3500, is optional. Buyers can also upgrade to a 5.9-liter V-8 that offers 330 lb-ft of torque and the ability to tow trailers weighing up to 8,600 pounds.
Two trims are available: a base 1500 and an extended 1500 Maxi. Both trims come standard with a three-speed automatic transmission, though a four-speed automatic with manual overdrive is available.
Standard equipment on the base 2003 Ram Van 1500 includes 16-inch steel wheels, all-season tires, variable intermittent wipers, two vinyl bucket seats, a tilt steering wheel, power steering, vinyl flooring, a front storage console, front cup holders, 12-volt front power outlets, a cargo light, cargo floor mats, front airbags, anti-lock brakes, and a four-speaker stereo system with a cassette player.
The 1500 Maxi comes with the same standard features but increases in length to 234.5 inches and total cargo capacity to 294.6 cubic feet. In both models, the driver and front passenger receive 40.5 inches of headroom, 39 inches of legroom, and 68 inches of shoulder room.
Individual options on both lengths include air-conditioning, a camper/towing package, a limited-slip rear differential, a chrome bumper, chrome wheels, sunscreen glass, power windows and locks, cloth upholstery, keyless entry, cruise control, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and an anti-theft alarm system.
The 2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500 comes in eight exterior colors and two interior colors.
Dodge introduced the half-ton Dodge Ram Van 1500 cargo van in 1995 alongside similarly equipped 2500 and 3500 models. The new Ram Van 1500 features a smaller grille and a more steeply sloped hood and windshield than the previous generation Ram Van B150 models. However, the new van offers the same standard 3.9-liter V-6 that powered earlier vans. A five-speed manual transmission replaces the three-speed automatic transmission found on B-Series models.
In 1997, Dodge updated the Ram Van 1500 with wider cargo doors, a new ignition switch, and a more modern stereo system. Front quarter vent windows were eliminated. In 1998, Dodge shifted V-8 engines in all Ram Vans forward to reduce noise. These models also include dual airbags and a new stereo system. For 1999, Dodge offered fleet customers the option of a 5.2-liter Compressed Natural Gas V-8 engine. More minor changes came in 2000, with the addition of a six-speaker stereo system, optional chrome-clad wheels, and windshield-wiper nozzles.
Dodge made its last notable changes to the Ram Van 1500 in 2001, when the brand added new positions to the tilt steering wheel and offered a trailer-tow package with a Class IV receiver hitch.
2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500
The 2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500 is a full-size van in the last year of its production.
2002 Dodge Ram Van 1500
The 2002 Dodge Ram Van 1500 is the same vehicle as expected.
2001 Dodge Ram Van 1500
The 2001 Dodge Ram Van 1500 takes its design from the Ram series of pickup trucks and modifies it to create a spacious cargo van.
2000 Dodge Ram Van 1500
The basic design of the Dodge Ram Van dates back to 1971.

Shantz will be a nice addition to Flames' defense
June 18, 2013 | Lynchburg, Va.
Defensive zone transition was one of the facets of the game Liberty University's Division I men's hockey team struggled with the most last season.
In Peter Shantz, Flames head coach Kirk Handy believes he's found a solution.
"A big thing that we want from our defensemen is we want a guy who is able to move the puck," Handy said. "Pete has great gap control and supports the puck really well."
When Handy traveled to see Shantz in action as captain of the Grimsby Junior "C" Hockey Club in the All-Ontario championships this past March, he was impressed with his consistency and efficiency.
"Pete's a player who when we saw him play, he was in control the whole time," Handy said. "He's a very, very steady two-way defenseman. You know what you're getting out of Pete every night. He's not a guy to run around and use his energy in an unwise manner. He's very efficient in how he moves around the ice."
Shantz brings other strengths to the table that make him a good fit for the position, and Liberty's program.
"Obviously, we were looking to get another right-handed defensemen, which is something else that was a key factor," Handy said. "We wanted someone who also has the size we were in need of, which is a big positive attribute with Pete, who's 6-foot-4, 205 pounds. He's a very lean guy and because of his size, he's able to cover a lot of ice. He's also very good at communicating with those around him."
Shantz's veteran leadership and winning mentality are tremendous benefits.
"The biggest thing from Pete is he's someone who knows how to win," Handy said, noting he played key roles in Grimsby's 2011 and 2012 tournament titles. "He's won at different levels and adds a pedigree to the program that we need. We need proven winners, and that's the thing about Pete. He's really, really excited about making a difference on our team next year and he has the ability to be a leader on our team one day."
Last season, Shantz was named not only Grimsby's best defensemen, but also the best team builder.
"Pete's personality is one that will fit in very nicely with the guys on our team," Handy said.
"My personality in the dressing room, and personal values, the whole persona, go right along with the Liberty way," added Shantz, who received his undergraduate degree in economics from McMaster University and plans to pursue a master's degree in counseling with a business focus at Liberty.
During a campus visit this past spring, Shantz stayed with Jackson Kuhn and hung out with Matt Sherry, fellow defensemen who live approximately two hours from his hometown of Hamilton, Ontario. His older brother David, who was drafted by the Florida Panthers in 2004, is a close friend of Liberty goalies coach Mike Binnie.
"It's a terrific group of guys, really good character guys," Shantz said. "It's a great group of skilled guys back there."
This past season, Shantz scored seven goals and distributed 16 assists for Grimsby, while accruing a team-high 74 penalty minutes. He was also good at covering for teammates while they served time in the penalty box and understands his job will be to clear the puck to teammates and ignite the attack.
"I'm there to kind of clean up the junk in front of me," he said. "Just being a big body out there on the defensive corps as a shut-down defenseman is a definite asset."
He hopes to help Liberty — which was eliminated by Ohio in the second of the American Collegiate Hockey Association DI national tournament last season — get over the hump in the postseason next March.
"I'm definitely looking to come in and solidify the back end and take the next step and win a national championship," Shantz said.
The Flames will open the 2013-14 season with two series against teams not affiliated with the ACHA — the Atlanta Junior A Knights on Sept. 6 and 7 and Hampton Whalers Sept. 13 and 14 at the LaHaye Ice Center — before beginning ACHA play Sept. 20 and 21 at West Virginia.

Introducing the Power'Tron—the ultimate marriage of twang, fatness, sparkle and warmth.
The Power'Tron was born out of TV Jones' desire to create a Filter'Tron-sized pickup with a strong midrange presence and high output, while still retaining the famous sparkle and bass-note clarity of their TV Classic.
At the heart of the Power'Tron bridge model are two extra-tall bobbins, allowing for more winds of standard-gauge wire. Single treble notes are reproduced with a full, midrange fatness, while bass notes twang out deep and clear. Overall, the tone is remarkably close to a fifties PAF humbucker, blended with a zing and twang that is all Gretsch.
Their matched Power'Tron neck model uses standard bobbins (to retain a 5/8" cover height), overwound with standard-gauge wire. The resulting tone is slighty darker and hotter than a TV Classic neck, scooping on an extra helping of thick, buttery goodness.
So, you ask, how is the Power'Tron bridge model different from the TV Classic Plus? Well, the Power'Tron has a tone that is fat and full — the result of tall coils wound with standard wire. The TV Classic Plus is more like a vintage Filter'Tron pickup with extra-attitude — this due to more turns of thinner wire on a short bobbin.
The Power'Tron neck model uses standard .380" pole-to-pole spacing, while the Power'Tron bridge features a pole-to-pole spacing of .406" for optimum string separation and output.
The Soapbar Mount uses the same size cover as a stock P-90 soapbar but with a TV Jones pickup under the hood. Featured in the Gretsch G6136 David Lee Model.
This pickup comes in chrome.
Specification: Power'Tron Bridge
- DC Resistance: 7.8k
- Inductance: 5.94 H
- Retro-fits in any guitar equipped with soapbars

you know your spoiler is going to hit your rear antennae?
Thats a good looking color. Is that what color your car came from the factory?
Butternut w/ a vinyl top is such a great combo. I'm going to follow this thread see how it turns out. Wish I had some advice to give but I'm it the same boat, I want to put the vinyl top back on my 69 but havent worked up t nerve to try it myself.
Your speaker holes are gigantic.
Quote from: BULLITT65 on March 18, 2014, 04:03:42 PMThats a good looking color. Is that what color your car came from the factory?Thank you. Yes Butternut was the original color although when I bought the car in 1980 it was Gold. I had it painted the 77 Corvette Yellow in first pics in 1981, but I have wanted to return it back to Butternut for probably 20 years. After hurting the big block at the drag strip in early 2006 I set it aside & started on the rotisserie resto the end of 2009. I've worked on it off & on.. mostly off. lol.. over since, & painted it myself at home here in my garage last May through July.
I would make sure you get a good vinyl top. Most that you see are too padded.
Quote from: 69Z28 on March 18, 2014, 10:42:24 PMYour speaker holes are gigantic. lol.. I know thats what happens when 16 year old kid puts new speakers in. There are to many things to count that I've done to this poor car over the years I wish I could take back.

Google Glass is getting glasses.
Google is adding prescription frames and new styles of detachable sunglasses to its computerized, Internet-connected goggles known as Glass.
The move comes as Google Inc. prepares to make Glass available to the general population later this year. Currently, Glass is available only to the tens of thousands of people who are testing and creating apps for it.
Glass hasn't actually had glasses in its frame until now.
Glass is basically a small computer, with a camera and a display screen above the wearer's right eye. The device sits roughly at eyebrow level, higher than where eyeglasses would go.
It lets wearers surf the Web, ask for directions and take photos or videos. Akin to wearing a smartphone without having to hold it in your hands, Glass also lets people read their email, share photos on Twitter and Facebook, translate phrases while traveling or partake in video chats.
The gadget itself is not changing with this announcement. Rather, Google plans to make various attachments available. Starting Tuesday, the Mountain View, Calif., company is offering four styles of prescription frames and two new types of shades available to its "explorers" — the people who are trying out Glass. The frames will cost $225 and the shades, $150. That's on top of the $1,500 price of Glass.
Users can take the frames to any vision care provider for prescription lenses, though Google says it is working with insurance provider Vision Service Plan to train eye-care providers around the U.S. on how to work with Glass. Google says some insurance plans may cover the cost of the frames.
Glass's designers picked four basic but distinct frame styles. On one end is a chunky "bold" style that stands out. On the other is a "thin" design — to blend in as much as possible.
Google won't be able to compete with the thousands of styles offered at typical eyeglasses stores. Instead, Glass's designers looked at what types of glasses are most popular, what people wear the most and, importantly, what they look good in.
The latter has been a constant challenge for the nascent wearable technology industry, especially for something like Google Glass, designed to be worn on your face. When Google unveiled Glass in a video nearly two years ago, it drew unfavorable comparisons to Bluetooth headsets, the trademarks of the fashion-ignorant technophile.
Google Glass currently comes in five colors — "charcoal," a lighter shade of gray called "shale," white, tangerine and bright blue "sky." The frame attachments out Tuesday are all titanium. Users can mix and match.

Leyton Orient are to play the famous American outfit New York Cosmos at the Matchroom Stadium in July as part of their pre-season preparations.
The League One side will play the American team, who were re-founded in 2010 and currently play in the North American Soccer League.
On organising the game, Orient's chief executive Matt Porter told the club's official website: "We are delighted to be hosting the Cosmos at the Matchroom and look forward to welcoming their followers.
"This is the latest in a line of exciting announcements this summer and a rare opportunity to see the O's take on opponents from across the Atlantic, so we are hoping for a great turnout in E10."
Cosmos dominated the American game between 1971 and 1985, when they were originally active.
They boasted such players as Franz Beckenbauer and Pele, with the latter still involved with the club today as honourary president.
Current manager Giovani Savarese is currently putting together a team of stars, with the most recent capture being former Spanish midfielder Marcos Senna.
Speaking about the upcoming friendly, Savarese said: "I'm looking forward to taking our squad to the UK.
"The chance to train and play in a different environment and face Orient will benefit our team and pre-season preparations."
The game is replacing Aldershot in Orient's pre-season schedule and will take place on 24 July at 7.30pm.

Alright, I can live with that. Just as long as it actually does successfully transform our current scripts as you said it would.
The conversion would be done with the utmost care. I can't guarantee there will be no bugs on initial release, but we will do our best. One option may be to support both syntaxes on the initial release, and then phase out the old, but that also has it's complications.
Quick question, is this the "simplier" version of scripts compared to the classic scripts?
Is this still being considered? Because it would make things a lot easier to do a lot quicker.
Agreed. It's so dreadfully slow as it is, even with a keyboard and plenty of scripting experience. This would be so nice. Also, that good ol' in-game keypad idea that was thrown about before.
Sounds like a good idea with positive outcomes if the script conversion works smoothly. With the idea of simplicity for users in mind might I make a suggestion, add a color system to the new syntax that will distinguish the command functions from variables like x,y,z and an active syntax error check that can highlight incorrect lines red while your scripting.Example: rain /p=x,y,z /r=value /d=value /i=value /c=r,g,b/ Like was stated earlier "I read those square brackets like gypsies read tea leaves..", this could help once we get used to it.

50 Cent on Same-Sex Marriage: 'I'm for It'
During his interview on Funkmaster Flex's Hot 97 radio show, 50 Cent threw his support behind President Obama's stance of same-sex couples having the right to get legally married. The New York rapper felt that Obama took a long time to address the issue, but agreed with his position.
"I'm cool. I would like people to actually be happy," he said. "Technically I don't see where it fits into any religion. The Bible that they would read to marry you, it doesn't have anything in it that says same-sex. If it does, then I would like someone to point out that interpretation."
50 adds that in his personal life, he's engaged in threesomes with women and allowed lesbian sexcapades to occur in his, um, romps. "I've encouraged same-sex activities," he said. "I've engaged in fetish areas a couple times. I'm for it. I'm wondering if I'm bad for promoting it when the president says it's fine."
Although 50 has been accused of homophobic comments in the past, as Pink News points out, it's seems as if the rapper has changed his views on homosexuality.
50 Cent is the latest artist to come out and back President Obama on gay marriage. Rapper T.I. feels that the issue is a personal choice and holds no bias on who should get married. "If it's not something that directly affects you, if it doesn't affect you, what difference does it make to you what other people are doing with their lives?" he told Sway on RapFix Live. "I think that you should be able to do whatever you want to do."
Meanwhile, Jay-Z praised Obama for his position and feels that legalizing same-sex marriage was the right thing to do. "I've always thought it as something that was still holding the country back," he said on CNN. "What people do in their own homes is their business and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It's no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination plain and simple."

Yesterday, Facebook finally entered the search business.
Ostensibly, this is great news for Facebook, users, shareholders, customers, and employees, as "search" is one of the most useful and lucrative applications in the digital world.
Ever since Mark Zuckerberg took the stage at a conference in November with the stock at $18 and said, yes, of course Facebook would go into search at some point, investors have been on the edge of their seats.
And excitement about that new revenue engine, as well as expected acceleration in the core business thanks to Facebook's new mobile products, has driven the stock back up to $30.
It is indeed exciting and promising that Facebook has entered this business.
But the truth is that Facebook's current beta product is miles from being anything more than a cool, revenue-less feature that some Facebook users might want to play with sometimes.
It isn't yet something that is going to be particularly useful.
And, importantly, it isn't yet something that will compete with Google for search ad dollars.
Our West Coast editor, Owen Thomas, took Facebook's new search engine for a spin yesterday.
As you can see here, it's a cool way to search Facebook that takes advantage of the fact that Facebook is a big structured database. And if you're looking for pictures that people have uploaded to Facebook (and made public), or friends who went to a particular school or live in a particular place, or potential mates, it seems quite useful.
Beyond that, though, the search engine indexes too little data to be valuable as a commercial discovery engine.
One of the immediate commercial uses that everyone began hyperventilating about yesterday, for example, was the hypothetical ability to use Facebook Search to find great restaurants. Everyone would just type in "Indian restaurants my friends like in San Francisco," this theory went, and they'd immediately find the good ones. Yelp would be toast, and all restaurants would immediately start paying Facebook gobs of money for sponsored listings, and so forth.
Well, Owen tried a few restaurant queries, too.
The results were, to use his word, "awful."
Why were they awful?
Because Facebook doesn't have enough data about restaurants that Owen's friends like to be truly useful. To have enough data about those restaurants, Facebook would want to go out to the web--to Yelp, to Google, to Zagat's--and begin to incorporate other factors despite just "likes." And Facebook would have to add detailed comments, and pictures, and ratings--the sorts of other structured data that anyone trying a new restaurant would want to know. And Owen's friends would have to eat at, and "like," more restaurants.
(It would be nice to think that folks will happily rush to a restaurant because a couple of friends have "liked" it on Facebook, but most Facebook users have used Facebook enough to know that "liking" something doesn't always mean that you actually liked it. And just knowing that someone "liked" something would leave most people wanting more information about it. Furthermore, "likes" will become even less meaningful if Facebook's new search engine suddenly prompts even more companies to pay to get "liked," which is one possible side-effect of the search engine that our Advertising editor Jim Edwards wrote about.)
More importantly, Facebook's new search engine has not yet entered the truly lucrative portion of the search business, which is standard online commerce.
The truth about Google is that only a small portion of Google search queries produce any revenue. And the ones that produce revenue are generally commerce queries: People looking for specific products to buy.
That's the search inventory that advertisers go bananas over.
That's the "database of purchase intentions" that has powered Google to a ~$50 billion business.
Right now, if you type a typical commerce search query into Facebook's search engine (I'm sorry, but I just can't bring myself to call it by its terrible name, "Graph Search," because no one outside the techo-chamber has any idea what that means), nothing happens.
For example, if you type in "Digital cameras that my friends like," you don't get jack.
To make Facebook Search useful for that sort of query, therefore, Facebook is going to have to continue to add capabilities to the product.
And eventually--and this is the critical step--Facebook is going to have to expand Facebook search to the web.
Not just the type and number of products that are indexed in Facebook Search.
But the actual search window itself.
As Microsoft and many others have made clear, the search business is a scale business: To make your query results relevant, you need a vast number of queries. And to get your search business running well, at a high revenue per search, you also need a vast number of queries--because it is only with this vast number of queries that you can build enough intelligence into the system that you can deliver the right sponsored ad at the right time and, thereby, drive up your revenue and the advertiser's ROI.
Google is exceptional at doing that... in part because Google has ~65% of the desktop search market (vastly more, if you include mobile and international)
Microsoft has about ~25% of the desktop search market, and this isn't anywhere near enough for Microsoft to make money on search. Microsoft can generate search revenue, but not profit: The amount it spends to generate its queries and traffic more than offsets the lower revenue-per-search that it can generate.
Facebook, meanwhile, only has about 2% of U.S. based desktop query share.
And the number of commercial queries in Facebook's 2% of queries is likely even proportionally lower.
So, to make this a good business--in addition to a truly useful commercial tool--Facebook is going to have to:
- Expand its search database to the web (thus capturing vastly more "likes")
- Generate results that include input from more than justyour friends (to get a meaningul way of distinguishing between, say, a couple of local restaurants, Facebook is going to have to include "like" data from hundreds of thousands of people who fit your demographic and general tastes and so forth--your few hundred friends just aren't a big enough sample. And your friends might not like the same food you do. Etc.)
- Move its search window and service out onto the web, en masse, and into "browsers" and other gateways. If Facebook ever wants to capture real search dollars and present truly relevant results, Facebook will need to radically increase the number of commercial search queries it is processing. And, right now, most of those queries take place off of Facebook.
Bottom line, Facebook Search is a cool new Facebook feature. Lots of people will probably play with it, at least initially--just the way they played with "Siri," when Apple rolled Siri out.
(And, as a reminder, when Apple demoed Siri, lots of people said it was going to kill Google. That idea is laughable now.)
But for this to be a truly useful product--and, more importantly, a real business--Facebook is going to have to do much more (and much differently) than it has done to date.
In other words, the hope that "search" will suddenly radically accelerate Facebook's revenue growth and deliver on the financial hopes and dreams that investors had about the company a couple of years ago remains just that, hope.
There's a lot of potential here.
But Facebook Search has a long, long way to go before it will ever really matter to anyone.

Tim McGraw, Kellie Pickler Make Impressive Chart Debuts With New Albums
Tim McGraw and Kellie Pickler made country music proud this week as their new records entered onto the Billboard Top 200 albums chart with high debuts.
McGraw's 'Emotional Traffic' comes in at No. 2 after selling 68,000 copies in first week sales, while Pickler's '100 Proof' lands at No. 7 on the all-genre charts with 27,000 copies sold. On the country albums chart, the positions are even more impressive as McGraw tops the list, with Pickler's disc following right behind at No. 2.
'Emotional Traffic' is McGraw's 14th Top 10 album on the Billboard 200 chart and his 13th chart-topping album on the country charts. "The most beautiful thing about this No. 1 debut, over the others, is that it was driven by the fans and their eagerness to finally have this music in their hands," says McGraw of the album. He pushed for its release for well over a year, until the parting of his contract with Curb Records late last year. "The fans don't care about the business side of things … they just want the artists they follow to keep putting out great songs, and I think we have delivered some of the best songs of my career on 'Emotional Traffic.' The reaction to the album makes me even more excited to get back on the road this summer on the Brothers of the Sun Tour."
Pickler echos McGraw's comments, stating: "I'm so proud of this album. I want to thank the fans so much for buying it and supporting country music. I know these are hard times economically and the fact that people spend their hard earned money on '100 Proof' is humbling."
While Pickler will spend the remainder of the year supporting the new release, McGraw fans can eagerly await the release of even more new music from the star, as he has been hard at work putting together another new album since leaving Curb.

WASHINGTON — Security is being beefed up at the U.S. embassy in the capital of Iraq and some staff members are being temporarily moved to other parts of Iraq and to Jordan.
A State Department spokeswoman says in a statement that a "substantial majority" of U.S. embassy staff will remain even as parts of the country experience instability and violence.
She says the Baghdad embassy will continue to engage daily with Iraqis.
U.S. travelers in the country were encouraged to exercise caution and limit travel to certain parts of Iraq.
An al-Qaida splinter group surprised Western intelligence organizations last week and took control of major Iraqi cities.

Lego City Undercover Trailer Does its Best GTA Impression

Due out on March 18th, the Wii U exclusive puts you in the shoes of Chase McClain, an elite cop forced to enter the criminal world to help reduce crime in Lego City. As the trailer shows, there will be plenty of laugh out loud moments peppered throughout, right alongside some more traditional Lego gameplay.
Check out the trailer below, and let us know which Lego game has been your favorite to date in the comments.

Unusual, Obscure, and Useful Linux Distros
angry tapir writes "Most people will be familiar with some of the big names when it comes to Linux — distributions like Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Debian, and Mandriva. Most of the well-known Linux distros are designed to be used as general-purpose desktop operating systems or installed on servers. But beyond these distros are hundreds of others either designed to appeal to very specific audiences or to fulfill the somewhat niche needs of some users. We rounded up some of the most interesting Linux distributions that you might not have heard of."

Small local libraries proliferated in mid-nineteenth century New England. This document shows the catalogue and regulations of the Chicopee, Massachusetts, town library when it was first opened in 1853. The library initially received its first books from a local private literary society, the "Cabot Institute." The society's first books were purchased with funds raised at a lecture given by the newspaper editor and future Presidential candidate Horace Greeley. Note that the library is open eleven hours a day, six days a week. The catalogue reflects the organization of books before the Dewey Decimal Classification System. Numbers, no doubt indicating location, suggest books were not organized topically on the shelves.

Robin VanLear is a sculptor and performance artist with her own company, Art Acts, which she founded in 1978. She has an MFA from the University of California Santa Barbara. Robin joined the education department of The Cleveland Museum of Art in 1989. In 1990 she designed the first Parade the Circle in preparation for the museum's 75th anniversary. Robin has been the event's artistic director throughout its 25-year history. In 1990 she also started the museum's first "I Madonnari" Chalk Festival and in 1994 initiated the first "Winter Lights" Lantern Festival as part of Holiday CircleFest.
In 1995 the Ohio Arts Council awarded Robin a professional development grant to support her travel to Trinidad & Tobago. Further support for the Parade Circle international exchange program came from OAC in 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, and 2002. Parade the Circle has twice been the Northern Ohio Live community event of the year.
In 2001 the Cleveland Arts Prize honored Robin with the Robert P. Bergman award. In the same year the Ohio Arts Council gave Parade the Governor's Award for Arts Outreach. The first Joseph Piggott award for contributions to the University Circle community was presented to Robin in 2002. She received the Judson Smart Living award in 2007. Robin's most recent awards include 2010 and 2014 Creative Workforce Fellowships for her work in performance art. This program is administered by The Community Partnership for Arts & Culture and is made possible by the generous support of Cuyahoga County residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture.
During her 25 years in Cleveland Robin has designed performances, installations, masks, sets, and costumes for Carousel Theater, The Cleveland Orchestra, Cleveland Opera on Tour, Cleveland Public Theatre, Dancing Wheels, Groundworks Dance Company, Hathaway Brown School, Lake View Cemetery, the annual Ingenuity Festival, and Playhouse Square. Art Acts performances were twice featured at the Cleveland International Performance Art Festival. Internationally Robin has designed prize winning carnival bands in Great Britain and Trinidad & Tobago.

Ratings & Reviews
Special Features
- Closed Captioned
Michael Frayn's frantic West End and Broadway farce makes a literal transformation to the screen in Peter Bogdanoch's faithful adaptation, which is transplanted from the London suburbs to Des Moines, Iowa to accommodate the (mostly) American cast. Michael Caine stars as director Lloyd Fellowes, assigned to bring the successful British sex farce "Nothing On" to the boards in America. In an intricate technical rehearsal, Lloyd puts his cast through their paces -- Garry Lejuene (John Ritter), an obliging feature actor; Dotty Otley (Carol Burnett), a fading theatrical star; Frederick Dallas (Christopher Reeve), a handsome leading man who demands to know the motivation behind every scene; Brooke Ashton (Nicollette Sheridan), the sexy leading lady; Belinda Blair (Marilu Henner), the seen-it-all second female lead; and Seldson Mawbray (Denholm Elliot), the inebriated character actor. The technical rehearsal goes off without a hitch, but as the play travels the country in pre-Broadway performances, the eccentricities of the cast come to the fore and the performances in Des Moines and Cleveland are complete disasters. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

House Passes Bill To Pay Furloughed Workers
The House has passed a bill to give 800,000 furloughed federal workers retroactive pay once the government reopens.
The House passed the bill in a rare Saturday session. The vote was 407-0. The Senate was expected to OK it as well, but the timing is unclear. The White House backs the legislation.
The federal government been partially shut down since Tuesday, the start of the new budget year. Both President Barack Obama and Congress are in Washington on Saturday, but there's no apparent progress in ending the shutdown.
After the voting, House are planning to leave town and not return until Monday evening.
The House has passed several bills to reopen selected parts of the federal government. Democrats are rejecting the piecemeal approach, saying the entire government should be reopened.

Tile, world's largest lost and found accessory coming soon
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Accessories, Apple, Wireless / WiFi
Tile may be a small Bluetooth accessory, but it is an ingenuous idea, currently being crowdfunded, that helps users find their lost items like keys, wallet, purse or anything you might attach Tile to.
Tile connects to iOS devices that support Bluetooth 4.0 with Bluetooth Low Energy. At this time, Tile is selling for $18.95 each in a KickerStarter-style pre-order system. The price will jump to $25 dollars when it officially goes on sale. One of the cool features includes a crowdsourced search that enlists the help of others to retrieve items that have been lost or stolen. Battery life is about a year, and when it's time to get a new one, they even send you an envelope to send the old TIles back for recycling. So far, Tile has over 25,000 backers and has surpassed its goal of $20,000 by $1.3 million dollars with 5 days left to go. Check out the video after the break for an in-depth look at how it all works.
