The parents of Anthony Armstrong-Jones (he was given the title Earl of Snowdon in 1961) were very different. He was Welsh to his fingertips, she an exotic mixture of English and Jewish. They divorced when he was five and Tony's relationship with his aloof glittering mother never recovered. His invent | iveness was soon apparent, at Eton and then Cambridge, where as cox in 1950 he designed a new rudder for his (winning) Boat Race crew. The engagement of this motorbike-riding freelance photographer in 1960 to Princess Margaret was a bombshell. Friends privately predicted disaster. | [

BTW, I thought that the Chronicle colloquy was pretty interesting. I don’t usually get to ask people questions directly, so I appreciated that the Chronicle allowed questions through without Gavin Schmidt/realclimate censoring.

In My Mind I Am Free
Dead People’s Choice Records, 2012
REVIEW BY: Tom Haugen
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: 07/26/2012
Spearheaded by Danish producer and multi-instrumentalist Tobias Wilner in 2000, these days Blue Foundation has added Bo Rande to the equation, and together the pair flesh out experimental and dream pop sensibilities to worldwide acclaim. Now based in Brooklyn, the duo continues to illustrate that they are well versed in electronica, shoegaze, and hazy pop. Currently four albums deep into their recording career, Blue Foundation brings in a handful of collaborators to help birth these atmospheric and melodic ideas on the recently dropped
In My Mind I Am Free.
The intro | “Just A Hand” reinforces the band’s ability to deliver blurry atmospheres combined with gentle vocals. It’s Blue Foundation as we know them from the beginning – a song oozing with spacey meandering. “Ground Control” shifts gears with an almost industrial feel, and displays Blue Foundation at their most jagged. The band always have their experimental nods in check, with tracks like “Dressed In Black” having plenty of almost video game like noises buried under the thick shoegaze | [

Before I start my review of Les Misérables, I need to mention two things about me; I am a “crier” when it comes to moving and touching films, and I am an avid musical theatre fanatic. So you would think that Les Misérables would be a film I particularly would enjoy, right? But I didn’t. And here is how I feel how it all went wrong…
There are many musical stage productions that convert really well onto film. Unfortunately, Les Misérables is not one of them. The initial prospect of this film was somewhat inspiring. Regarding the concept of the recording of songs, having the actors sing whilst on set is a great idea and makes sense completely regarding the type of musical that Les Misérables is. But when it comes to actually watching the film itself, the execution is lost among the viewer. Most people | , if not told before hand about how the music was recorded would not have been able to tell the difference.
The film was impossible to follow and the plot was completely indecipherable. Moving at a million miles a minute, a viewer who has not read the book or seen the musical theatre production will be completely lost.
The cinematography was also shocking. In this day and age, there is no excuse for so much of this film to be out of focus. And the camera angles? There is one scene where two characters are meant to be lovingly meeting | [

Were Stars Playing for Mourinho FC or Chelsea FC?
It’s a ridiculous thought, but in a way it does demonstrate the grip that Mourinho had on his players.
Psychologically, the Chelsea side this Sunday will be a shambles against Manchester United. Sure, they’re professionals and they should be able to put the turmoil at the club behind them, but such is the sensitivity that players have for Mourinho that I believe it will affect them in a very negative manner.
My concern is that some Chelsea players may not play to the peak of the game and may not believe in Avram Grant, especially if the players were psychologically playing for Mourinho FC instead of Chelsea FC in the past.
They’d never admit that but based on the the feared exodus by Chelsea players and what they’ve said in the press thus far, they | are wearing their hearts on their sleeves and honoring Mourinho — which is understandable.

Yunel Escobar's stint with the Miami Marlins is over before it began.
Weeks after he was acquired by Miami in a trade that sent five high-priced players to the Toronto Blue Jays, Escobar was traded again Tuesday night. He went to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for minor league middle infielder Derek Dietrich.
The trade saves the cost-conscious Marlins $5 million (Escobar's 2013 salary). However, it's possible Escobar's exit also was hastened by the same desire to prevent controversy among the local Hispanic community that contributed to the firing of manager Ozzie Guillen after the season.
Escobar was suspended for three games late last season after he wrote a homophobic spur in Spanish on his eye-black strips. Guillen became a polarizing figure in Miami after he made comments that praised Fidel Castro.
"We did a lot of homework on Yunel and believe he's going to fit in really well in our clubhouse," Rays executive vice president Andrew Friedman said, according to the Tampa | Bay Times. "It's a calculated risk we feel will work out well."

It's almost impossible to define the emerging church movement. In fact, many say it isn't a movement; it's just a conversation about what needs to change in the church. There is no official organization or leader(s). My impression so far is that of a lot of concerned people dissatisfied with the current methods of the church.
There are definite problems within the church. We not only live in a postmodern society where truth and structure are questioned; we also live in a post-Christian society where a growing percentage of people do not hold to Christian beliefs. They don't know Christian terminology. They don't identify with our methods. Many don't even know who Jesus is. Because society has changed much more than the church's approach to reaching them and because many in the church are just going through the motions of what they grew up doing as a child, church attendance has steadily declined.
We must converse about these problems and experiment with ways to overcome them. There will not be a pat formula. There never has been, but there are some basics that should be changed. We must focus on our relationship with God. That will make our worship and our witness genuine. We must love and welcome all people into our churches. We must be willing to listen to their | differing ideas, but we must study the truths of the Bible as well. We cannot condone sin be it in the form of sexuality, profanity, idolatry, and the like.

PrimeServ Las Palmas held its official opening at the beginning of October 2010 in front of an audience from the Canary Islands, the Spanish mainland, MAN Diesel & Turbo’s power-plant and marine sectors, and which included colleagues from around Europe.
PrimeServ Las Palmas has de facto been open for business since the beginning of 2010, and transported guests to its new facilities aboard a catamaran powered by MAN engines to demonstrate how customers can conveniently berth vessels right in front of its premises.
Alejandro Held – Managing Director of MAN Diesel & Turbo Spain, Wayne Jones – Head of MAN Diesel & Turbo’s After-Sales Business Unit, and Dr. Stephan Timmermann – MAN Diesel & Turbo Executive Board, held speeches welcoming customers and guests alike, and highlighting MAN Diesel & Turbo’s efforts to move closer to its customers through the continued, global expansion of the MAN PrimeServ network. | Oscar Martinez, Service Manager of MAN PrimeServ Las Palmas, was then invited on stage to help move the handle on an engine order telegraph to full-speed ahead, symbolizing the new hub’s starting of its engines and its orders to sail confidently forward.

JAMES FRANCO is asking a judge to toss a lawsuit filed against him by a former New York University professor who sued the actor for calling him a "bad teacher".
Jose Angel Santana filed a defamation lawsuit against the 127 Hours star in September (12), claiming he made "disparaging and inaccurate public statements" against him after receiving a poor grade in his class.
Santana requested a default judgment in his favor after the actor allegedly failed | to respond, but now Franco has hit back, insisting he was never properly served with the lawsuit.
In newly filed legal documents, obtained by TMZ.com, Franco argues Santana's request for a default judgement should be dismissed.

However, the process stalled at the trustees, who could not agree on a final pick. Instead, the board started the process over again from scratch in August. But this time, the trustees changed their process.
In an attempt to move the process along, the HCC board decided not to hold public meet-and-greets to vet the five finalists like it had the first time around. In fact, the names of the finalists would not be made public at all this time.
This time around, the consultant that HCC hired has a more limited role in the process. For the first search, consultant Donnie Hunter, who was hired at a price of $19,000, solicited applicants and narrowed the pool down to a short | list of candidates to be interviewed by the board.
During the second search, Hunter will simply help with the background check. His role was scaled back because of an unsatisfactory outcome the first go-round.

Switzerland refused to reopen a long-running graft case against Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari as he enjoys immunity as head of state, Pakistan’s law ministry said on Sunday.
Pakistan wrote to Swiss authorities in October over the multi-million dollar allegations against Zardari, which date back to the 1990s, at the insistence of the country’s Supreme Court.
Zardari and his late wife, former premier Benazir Bhutto, were accused of using Swiss banks to launder $12 million in alleged kickbacks.
Yasmin Abbasey, the top official in the law ministry, told AFP the Swiss had replied saying they would not reopen the cases which were frozen when Zardari became head of state in 2008.
“They have responded to the letter and said the president has immunity,” she said.
“This was the main issue and they have confirmed it that the president enjoys immunity.”
Pakistan’s top court spent nearly three years demanding the government, led by Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) ask the Swiss to reopen the cases before they finally rel | ented.

Time for benchmarks!
I have written six performance benchmarks, that I have implemented in Java 3D, Ardor3D and jMonkeyEngine3. These benchmark tries to test various aspects of the 3D scene graph APIs.
In short, there are benchmarks for dynamic geometry, frustrum culling, rapid add and removal of nodes to the scene graph, picking, state sorting, and transparency sorting

EU to consider all options to help Syrian rebels
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - All options are on the table to support the Syrian opposition fighting President Bashar al-Assad, European Union leaders said on Friday, raising the possibility that non-lethal military equipment or even arms could eventually be supplied.
In their strongest statement of support for the Syrian opposition since the uprising began more than 20 months ago, EU leaders instructed their foreign ministers to assess all possibilities to increase the pressure on Assad.
Britain's David Cameron pushed for an early review of the arms embargo against Syria to potentially open the way to supply equipment to the rebels in the coming months, but Germany and others were more reluctant and blocked any quick move.
But there was widespread agreement that whatever action can be taken under current legislation should be pursued, and the arms embargo would still be reviewed at a later stage.
"I want a very clear message to go to President Assad that nothing is off the table," Cameron told reporters at the end of a two-day EU summit. "I want us to work with the opposition... so that we can see the speediest possible transition in Syria.
"There is no single simple answer, but inaction and | indifference are not options."
Officials said that Britain and France were keen for further discussion on lifting the arms embargo, to open the way for non-lethal assistance, at least initially.

The last volume of Shelley's superb Clementi sonata series is here, and, despite a vanishingly few disappointments here and there, the completion of his series is cause for rejoicing. Shelley has made apparent Clementi's accomplishment in these works, through expressive virtuoso performances that reveal the Italian's unique contributions to idiomatic piano writing and the development of the classical and early romantic piano sonata. He does this without apology for Clementi's virtuoso athleticism--an aspect of his style very different from Haydn's and Mozart's. A great many composers have stood on Clementi's shoulders (among the first generation, Dussek, Hummel AND Beethoven), and their piano sonatas would have been greatly different without his trail blazing.
Now, in these last masterpieces, Clementi steps forth to assert his status as the elder statesman of the classical piano sonata, whose innovations the younger generation had quite rightly taken and | run with. These include brilliant passages in octaves and other double notes contrasted with stark two-part writing; harmonic audacity; at times, a bluff and rough-hewn virility like nothing to be found in Haydn or Mozart; and--in these six late sonatas especially--a fascination with counter | [

“Biotechnology has come a long | way” since the earlier project, says Valerie Sarisky-Reed of the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, one of the lead authors of the roadmap. “With a dedicated research and development program, we can bring the economics to a suitable place within a 10-year time frame,” she says. “We chose to invest in it again because we felt we were within striking | [

The President does not care about American jobs and American Industry. I am convinced he only cares about'remaking America in his own image' and part of that is forcing change, like bankrupting us and anyone who uses coal.
This is from The Daily Caller:
"President Barack Obama is ignoring heated concerns from within his own administration that new Environmental Protection Agency coal industry regulations | will be economically devastating.
The EPA is plowing forward with new Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) mandates. The regulations would force coal energy plants to install giant scrubber-like materials inside smokestacks to capture and cleanse carbon particles before their atmospheric release.
The upgrade cost would fall on company employees and coal miners in the form of layoffs, as well as on businesses, which could expect to pay more for energy | [

The humble photo booth
Harvest Magazine, Issue Four, Summer 2009/10
by Darron Davies
This is no ordinary photo. No. Unlike other photos one sees of the 1970's: rich blues, greens and yellows, barbecues in backyards, uncles posing with sexy nieces - this photo carries its own ambience.
It is black and white, passport-like, crude and interesting. It has been taken in a photo booth - those curious booths once found at railway stations, shopping centres and street corners.
My cousin and I had found the booth and, probably egging each other on | , stepped into the tardis-like atmosphere to act the fool and get a few photos taken.

Woman Claims She's a Marquette Law Student During Fight Investigation
A 30-year-old Waukesha woman is accused of resisting an officer while they were investigating an incident at Ryan's Pub, according to a criminal complaint.
A Waukesha woman who felt – at least while intoxicated – that police should “never talk to her that way” is charged with two misdemeanors, according to a criminal complaint.
Natasha M. Gregory, 30, was charged Feb. 1 in Waukesha County Circuit Court with resisting an officer and disorderly conduct from an Aug. 24 incident at Ryan’s Pub. She faces up to one year in jail and $11,000 in fines if convicted.
According to the complaint:
Officers were investigating a report of a fight at Ryan’s Pub, 1220 The Strand, at 12:03 a.m | . Aug. 24. A bartender pointed out Gregory and another woman to police, stating that they tried to fight with bartenders and several patrons in the bar.
A police officer asked Gregory to step out of the bar, which agitated her. The officer reported she seemed intoxicated with slurred speech. She told the officer that police “would never talk to her that way.”
Gregory came outside at a fast rate toward the officer, so he took a step backward. That’s when, police say, Gregory said she was an “(expletive | [

After having serviced a few of these machines and owned them, let me see if I can answer your questions:
1) You probably need to clean the shower screen thoroughly. Unscrew it gently with a standard screwdriver when the group head has had a chance to cool down. That being said, the water does not always flow from the center, even when it is clean.
2) You probably need to descale your pressurized portafilter (if it has seen a lot of use). Also, you should NOT be tamping with a pressurized portafilter, only filling the basket level to the top before putting it on the machine.
3) You'll never get a dry puck with a pressurized portafilter on a Saeco. Saeco's lack a three-way valve that sucks the excess moisture away from the coffee when you're done brewing, so you'll always have to rinse your spent coffee grounds out.
I don | 't personally have experience with the Saeco Aroma machines myself, but all espresso machines usually have a dispersion screen. This is meant to distribute the water flow across the entire width of the portafilter evenly.
The flow speed espresso out of the (pressured) portafilter (left and right holes) are uneven. One is faster than the other. Is it related to the pressure of my | [

Beyonce's film credits include Dreamgirls and The Pink Panther
Pop star Beyonce has said she wants to play Wonder Woman in a film of the comic book heroine.
The singer has met DC Comics and film studio Warner Bros to express her interest in future superhero roles on the big screen.
"I want to do a superhero movie and what would be better than Wonder Woman?" she told the Los Angeles Times.
"And it would be a very bold choice. A black Wonder Woman would be a powerful thing. It's time for that, right?"
Wonder Woman, played by Lynda Carter on TV in the 1970s, has never been made into a feature film.
Beyonce was nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in Dreamgirls two years ago, and has also had film parts in Austin Powers in Goldmember and The Pink Panther.

Unfortunately all of the shops were closed until January 7th. I guess wealthy people need a really long New Year's vacation.

I don't know many people who aren't generally disgusted with the political process right now. Left to right, top to bottom, it's a mess. I thought I'd put a little advice together for would-be leaders.
A Baptist preacher learns to hone the skills of diplomacy, bridge-building and persuasion, Furr writes.

(Jul 31, 2009) The reuse of food in restaurants in Korea has been a source of contention among consumers, the government, and restaurants. Korean cuisine features small side dishes that complement the main dish. When patrons leave amounts of the side dishes uneaten, restaurants have reused the food by serving it to subsequent customers. Restaurants claim that they need to place ample amounts of food on the table to avoid being labeled as stingy, yet later need to reuse the inevitably uneaten food for economic reasons.
In April 2009, the Korean Ministry of Health, Welfare, and Family Affairs (MIHWFA) amended the Enforcement Decree of the Food Sanitation Act to impose harsh sanctions against the practice. (Food Sanitation Act Enforcement Decree, MIHWFA Decree No. 102 (Apr. 3, 2009), arts. 13 and 15.) Beginning on July 3, 2009, restaurants caught reusing food will be closed down for 15 days for the first offense. For a second offense occurring within a year of the first, the restaurant will be closed for two months. For the third offense, the restaurant will be closed | for three months. On the fourth offense within the year, the restaurant will be closed permanently. Additionally, persons responsible for the reuse may be fined up to 30 million won (about US$23,000) or imprisoned for up to three | [

Taylor Swift Dodges Harry Styles at BRIT Awards 2013 - Avoids Former Lover
Taylor Swift shows Harry Styles what he's missing in a sexy black dress at the 2013 BRIT Awards in London.

A disturbing picture of the status of AIDS in the United States and an angry claim that the country has failed utterly to confront the problem.

Bicycle boulevards are shared roadways that create an attractive, convenient, and comfortable cycling environment that is welcoming to cyclists of all ages and skill levels.

Lebanon asks UN help in protecting gas field
The Lebanese Foreign Ministry on Wednesday confirmed the country's "full right" to exploit all the oil and gas resources within its maritime economic zones, stressing the need for a UN demarcation of the maritime border between Lebanon and Israel.
However, a diplomatic source said the mandate of UN peacekeepers operating in southern Lebanon (UNIFIL) is limited to border control patrols and not to draw the maritime border between the two states. These developments come after Israel announced the the discovery of large quantities of gas in the sea. Lebanon claims that part of the gas is located withing its economic zone.
A source IN Beirut said that Lebanon had dispatched to the United Nations maps showing the southern borders of the economic zone based on a law from 1982. The International Maritime Convention Law of 1982 allowed states to maintan the sovereign right to exploit natural resources within the exclusive economic zone.
