Oswald Leaving TSBD?
By William Kelly,
August 14, 2013 in JFK Assassination Debate
As we have seen Jeraldean Reid's story of reentering the TSBD and arriving up in the second-floor office area some two minutes after the shots doesn't add up.
It is contradicted by Geneva Hine's description of the empty office area she found herself reentering very shortly after the shooting.
Comparison of Reid's story with that of a colleague, Sarah Stanton, is instructive.
The detail about the Southwestern Publishing Company--she went into it, rather than just knocking futilely on the locked door as Hine did--helps us plot Stanton's movement in terms of the Hine timeline in a way that allows their two stories to harmonise:
It would seem that, by the time Stanton (light blue) came off the passenger elevator and went down the east-west office corridor, Hine had already tried to gain entry to the Lyons & Carnahan and South-Western Publishing offices.
Hine says she saw/heard a female employee on the phone behind the locked door of the South-Western office:
presumably this woman was off the phone and had unlocked the door by the time Stanton arrived.
What's crucial here is that Stanton says she went to the ladies' room after this:
this visit explains her delay in reentering the office area in which Hine is now located.
Reid's story, by contrast, leaves completely hanging the question of where she went after she and Oswald had crossed paths.
Did Reid remain in the office?
Not possible, or the re-entering Hine would definitely have noticed her and pumped her for information about what had just happened outside.
Did Reid pay a visit to the ladies' room?
Not possible, or she would have been noticed by Hine who was herself in the corridor.
Unless Reid climbed into the dumbwaiter in the office area and hid there for several minutes, there appears to be only one place she can have gone in order to miss Hine:
the second-floor lunchroom.
Which is surely, and for pretty obvious reasons, a non-starter.

The 2-minute result of the time trial Jeraldean Reid did for the Warren Commission on March 20th 1964 was a foregone conclusion:
it had already been carefully arrived at months earlier by the FBI.
We know this from item #6 in an 11/30/63 document researcher Colin Crow has drawn attention to:
One is struck first of all by the perfect fit between the numbers in time trial #6 and key numbers in the WC testimony of
Baker-Truly (the farcical Z313+90 seconds 'minimum' for lunchroom incident)
Baker (30 seconds for duration of lunchroom incident)
Reid (office area Oswald encounter at Z313+2mins).
Over and above this though is the observation that the above document charts a most curious exercise.
The FBI supposedly by this stage already knows full well from Truly and Baker and Reid that Oswald's only possible escape route was that outlined in time trial #6 above.
Yet here they are trying out lots of alternative routes by which the guilty Oswald could have made it down from the sixth floor and left the building by the front entrance.
In fully half of these time trials, the second-floor lunchroom does not even feature!
Perhaps they are conscientiously covering possible escape routes by an alternative shooter to or a confederate of Oswald?
Not possible: not a single exit-by-back-door or exit-by-side-door scenario is even time-trialed--proving that Oswald's possible movements, and his alone, are being considered.
The final note in the document does however make clear that the strong frontrunner in terms of Oswald escape routes is #6:
descent by rear stairway to second floor
lunchroom incident
through office area
down front stairs
out front entrance.
Remarkable that even now, days after the assassination and long after the lunchroom incident has supposedly become a fixed matter of record thanks to the detailed information given by Truly, the FBI are still hedging their bets by stating that escape route #6 is only "possibly" the route taken by Oswald--and by spreading their bets 50/50 across a range of lunchroom/non-lunchroom scenarios.
It's as if they know only too well just how problematic and open to challenge the whole self-corroborating Truly-Reid story-complex is.
And just how nervous they are as to whether Marrion Baker is going to play ball with the lunchroom charade.

Please freshen my memory-- on what real or imaginary grounds did the bad guys base their belief that Oswald had left the building from the front door?
Oswald's Alibi-Per-Fritz: "Second Floor Coke When Officer Came In To First Floor Had lunch Out with Bill Shelley In Front"
Mrs. Reid: Saw Oswald on the second floor about two minutes after the assassination, walking in the general direction of the front stairs.

The floor plan with scale bar suggests that the top step is about 5 feet deep (from door to edge of step) and about 12 feet wide (east-west). The door seems to be about 4 feet wide.
http://www.maryferrell.org/mffweb/archive/viewer/showDoc.do?docId=10896&relPageId=7
This floor plan suggests that the front door could open both outwards and inwards, but from the pictures seen in the other tread (
http://educationforu...showtopic=20513 ) it seems the door could only open outwards.
Bjørn Gjerde
Bjørn,
I believe the graphic you posted of the first floor is distorted lengthwise. The length of the TSBD appears greater than the width. It should be square.
I think the floor plan measures 100 x 100.
This makes the porch appear larger than it actually is. I would guess it is closer to 3' than 5'.
If there are any forum posters in the Dallas area, this could quickly be resolved with a tape measure.
Yes, the floor plan seems to be distorted in that print with the wrong lenght:width ratio. It may be more correct in CE 362.
https://www.maryferrell.org/mffweb/archive/viewer/showDoc.do?absPageId=138626
So the porch may well have been narrower than 5 feet and thus about the same width as the front door.
Anyway, the essential fact relating to the discussion in this tread is that it would have been somewhat difficult for Prayer Man to maneuver himself rapidly around the door when this was being opened towards him as people started to rush into the building. Hence, it is not surprising that no one seem to have noticed this person.
No doubt the employees minds were preoccupied with shots being fired as they went back inside the building. Couple that with the fact that LHO was a recently hired, quiet guy who did not draw attention to himself.
Regarding the porch width, the bolded portion of your quote above may give us a good clue. The porch appears narrow in the vestibule photo, but it would make sense to have the door width no greater than the depth of the porch. They may have been nearly the same.
Commercial door widths were commonly 36 to 44".

In this forum thread, once again, we're treated to people using their vivid imaginations to stamp a specific identity on a fuzzy and very indistinct human being seen in a low-quality film/photo.
How in the world can anyone positively say WHO "prayer man" is here? It's impossible.
But when I look at these toggling frames from Mal Couch's film, the thing I'm most fascinated by (other than Officer Baker running for the TSBD entrance) is the man in the foreground (wearing the hat). He appears to be tilting his head upward to look at the upper floors of the Depository.
Hmmmm....I wonder why he'd be doing that? Any ideas?

...being seen in a low-quality film.
Agreed. Where's the highest quality copy of this that we can find?
Magnetic Video tape tends to begin deteriorate 10-15 years after it's been recorded. I was recently reviewing the Hollywood movie "Executive Action" (released in 1973) and it struck me that the clips of actual video used in that film seemed to be of much higher quality that the extant films we have to work with.
A lot of people find these videos on youtube which is one of the worst places to look. Youtube re-encodes everything that is uploaded in the upload process. It's not a "lossless" re-encode. I'd rather have access to the file that was uploaded to youtube than the "ease" of playback afforded by that service. The versions uploaded to the "Sixth Floor Museum" site are postage stamp size and are also not of much use to researchers.

Still fascinated with one of Baker's versions of his encounter with Oswald:
"The man who said he was the building superintendent was outside and met me at the door and went in with me. Shortly after I entered the building I confronted Oswald. The man who identified himself as the superintendent said that Oswald was all right, that he was employed there. We left Oswald there, and the supervisor showed me the way upstairs. We couldn't get anyone to send the freight elevator down. In giving the place a quick check, I found nothing that seemed out of the ordinary, so I started back to see what had happened. Not knowing for sure what had happened, I was limited in what I could legally do."
C'mon, Mr. Baker, is it Door No. 1, Door No. 2 or Door No. 3 ??

Robert... can you please source this statement for me? When/Where was this said and to whom?
It appears to be an oral statement made by Baker, "many years" after the assassination. I found it in a long article about the acoustical evidence by a "John C. Bowles."
http://www.jfk-online.com/bowles6.html
Here's the pertinent but undated "statement," with appropriate introduction:
Probably the most informed and the most ignored authorities on what happened and in what order in Dealey Plaza are the motorcade motor jockeys. They have been interviewed uncounted times by many people, ranging from official investigators to insufferable quacks. Again, they are referred to in this text by a "letter" name, hopeful that it will discourage further contacts, however well-intentioned. While their recollections are presented in the first person, their comments should not be taken as unalterable quotes. Too many years have passed for them to remember with unimpeachable certainty what they might have said earlier and what they say now. Accordingly, what they say here should be considered for the meaning rather than exactness. [emphasis added by T. Graves]
OFFICER "E" [obviously Marion Baker]
It had been a long escort. We had a lot of people all the way. There were no problems, just a heavy crowd and a lot of yelling and cheering, and the motors were getting hot. When you follow the lead, you do a lot of starting and stopping, trying to hold an interval. I was glad it was almost over.
The crowd was real heavy down on the end of the downtown area, but just past Dealey Plaza it would open up and we would be on the freeway and just a few minutes from the Trade Mart. The front of the motorcade started blocking up in the crowd in those last turns coming off Main and turning onto Elm. Back on Houston, where we were, we were just about stopped and moving real slow when we could move.
A little past half way down Houston (between Main and Elm), I heard the first shot. I could tell it came from somewhere in front of me, and high. As I looked up I noticed all the pigeons flushed off the top of the building on the corner ahead of me. And in the same period I heard the second shot, and then the third one. I couldn't see just where the shots came from but I knew they were from a high-powered rifle. I hunt a lot, and had just got back from hunting. There was no mistaking that; there were three shots, that's for sure. Though I didn't see exactly where the shots came from, I knew in my own mind they probably came from the corner building as the sound was right and because of the pigeons. So I headed there, got off my motor and entered the building (the Texas School Book Depository). It took a while because of the crowd; they had started moving in every direction.
The man who said he was the building superintendent was outside and met me at the door and went in with me. Shortly after I entered the building I confronted Oswald. The man who identified himself as the superintendent said that Oswald was all right, that he was employed there. We left Oswald there, and the supervisor showed me the way upstairs. We couldn't get anyone to send the freight elevator down. In giving the place a quick check, I found nothing that seemed out of the ordinary, so I started back to see what had happened. Not knowing for sure what had happened, I was limited in what I could legally do.
The investigator from Washington contacted me for my recollection of what happened, but I guess they weren't interested in what I said.
What's interesting to me is the fact that the sentences in bold tend to substantiate Sean Murphy's theory.
Simply put, Baker suggests here that he and Truly realized that the elevators were stuck on the fifth floor only after they had encountered Oswald. From the Warren Report, we already know that Truly and Baker were on the first floor when they tried to get one of the freight elevators to come down, but couldn't, so went up the stairs instead.

Much appreciated Thomas.... and this by default helps to support Arnold's statement about seeing Oswald near the front entrance shortly before the motorcade arrived...
Which also helps support the notion that MRS REID sees LEE and not HARVEY... leaving the TSBD....
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember what clothes he had on when you saw him?
Mrs. REID. What he was wearing, he had on a white T-shirt and some kind of wash trousers. What color I couldn't tell you.
Mr. BELIN. I am going to hand you what has been marked Commission Exhibit, first 157 and then 158, and I will ask you if either or both look like they might have been the trousers that you saw him wear or can you tell?
Mrs. REID. I just couldn't be positive about that. I would rather not say, because I just cannot.
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember whether he had any shirt or jacket on over his T-shirt?
Mrs. REID. He did not. He did not have any jacket on.
One of the three tramps photos shows what appears to be OSWALD near the entrance of the TSBD talking to a policeman(?) he is in long sleeves (far right)
I happen to believe the lunchroom scene NEVER OCCURRED and was created by Truly/Baker and Fritz to negate Arnold's statement about seeing Oswald right about the time of the shooting.
The very FIRST LINE of the FIRST PAGE OF FRITZ's NOTES starts off with
"claims 2nd floor Coke when
off came in"
Who starts off by writing on the RIGHT HAND SIDE of a page and working back to the left? And don't you suppose OSWALD would know it was TRULY who was with the "off" who came in? No mention of that at all...
Not sure at all which question this is an answer to, if it was made up, or what order the questions where asked.....
Edited October 24, 2013 by David Josephs
I'm not particularly "into" the Harvey and Lee scenario, nor do I really want to go down that rabbit hole. But I do have a question.
What time were the three tramps paraded through Dealy Plaza? Around 2:30?
So if the Harvey and Lee Theory is correct, that would make it "Harvey" talking to the policeman-type in the background of that Three Tramps photo, right?
Here's the photo from jfkassassination[.]net. The person we're talking about is in the background on the far right.
http://jfkassassination.net/russ/infojfk/jfk6/6figIV51p267.jpg
PS I hope this thread doesn't devolve into a Harvey and Lee debate.
Yes, HARVEY ... and it's too bad you aren't "into" that scenario Thomas. It remains the only plausible answer to many. many questions (i.e. why does HOOVER need to send agents to Stripling Jr High in Ft Worth and Pfisterer's in NOLA within 12 hours of Oswald being charged with JFK's murder - 11:30pm 11/22 -, and to the Red Cross within days for the 1956-62 original docs... any reason the 7 year old 1956 JR High Records, the 1956-58 employement records and the 1956-62 Red Cross Dependency Discharge records of the 1963 accused assassin would be of ANY VALUE to the prosecution? Have you EVER seen a letter TO Oswald in RUSSIA from his mother or brother? He has 1956 W-2's but not the stack of letters from his mother and brother....)
I'd suggest reviewing CE1961(military records of Oswald in the USMC) followed by the FELDE statement in ce1962.... which contradicts the Marine's info... or the handwritten notes by HARVEY upon his return to the USA detailiing where he was and when... they agree with FELDE and NOT the LEE history we get in the USMC docs...
One of the greatest failings imo of our research community is that we KNOW the FBI created/altered/destroyed evidence... yet we have trouble believing that Hoover was aware of these two men and knew exactly where to go to make their original records disappear (from 5-10 years before, NYC was 1952). Add to this the pile of evidence from every corner of the world and from each and every year of his existence that supports there being 2 men who became 1 set of historical documents .... and you have one of the most important safeguards that we'd NEVER know who LHO was...
You think Hoover made sure to confiscate James Earl Ray's Jr High School records on the day following the killing? What could possbily prompt Hoover to do this in Oswald's case ??
With regards to the timing of the tramp photos....
http://jfkassassinationfiles.com/fbi_124-10179-10310
According to these statements the amount of time between the shots and the moving of these men thru DP was not almost 2 hours.... but instead not very long after the assassination.
I've looked at the shadows in other images and the ones in the tramps photos actaully do appear to be only slightly longer in relation to the subject's body.
If you have better info on time stamping the photos... please share...
At this point in time I think LEE is preparing to assist or actually do the shooting in the killing of TIPPIT... LEE, the bigger man, MAY have been the owner of the medium sized jacket that was left to be found....... but that's just a thought. LEE had already left when this photo of HARVEY - if it is - was taken. I believe it was taken around 12:40-12:50. please correct me if I'm wrong.
All this is speculation anyway... for if it was much later, that couldn't be HARVEY... the man arrested at the theater.

Winner of the Flaviar Community Awards 2019 in its respective category!
Made by the Miyagikyo distillery, the first and bigger distillery of the Nikka Whisky Company. It was founded in 1934 by one of the two most influential men in Japanese Whisky, Masataka Taketsuru. Yoichi Distillery lies in southern Hokkaido and has three sides surrounded by mountains, a terrain much similar to the one found in Scotland, where Masataka studied the art of Whisky production and returned to Japan as a master blender - with a Scottish wife to boot. Yoichi possesses its own cooperage and is particularly careful when selecting its barrels. Known as Hogshead the barrels are made on-site using new oak. Yoichi produces big, oily spirits in the Highland style.
Nikka Coffey Grain is a made from a mash bill containing mostly corn, and a dash of malted barley. It was distilled using a Coffey still (aka patent still). The founder, Masataka Taketsuru imported a Coffey still from Scotland back in 1963, because he desired a grain spirits high in alcohol content, but also one that retains the character of the grain, its flavors and aromas.
The newer, more widely used, types of continuous stills stripped the spirit of too much flavor. The Coffey still is notoriously difficult to operate, but it does produce Whisky with a more characterful spirit. This unconventional Whisky is NOT for everyone. It's for those who appreciate the different. You, we hope.
Coffey still is named after Aeneas Coffey (1780–1852), an Irish inventor and distiller.
What does Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky taste like?
The Flavor Spiral™ shows the most common flavors that you'll taste in Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.
Vanilla, corn, herbals, spice, Chamomile.
Sweet, fruit, melon, grapefruit, thick syrup, crunchy biscuits, fresh vanilla.
Fresh vanilla, burnt caramel, pepper, sweet, syrup, corn, malted barley, oak, demerara sugar.
I enjoy this whiskey I initially got some dry fruit notes and so chocolate. Smooth going down with a slight kick on the back end.
As the description implies, this one is no slouch in flavor. Many Japanese whiskies I've had are more on the delicate side, whereas this one is very forthright in its aroma and taste. It still very much has the familiar peppery flavor that grain whiskey is known for, but the flavor is a wild ride of complexity. Very enjoyable.
It has a good smooth taste but it also has a bite that doesn't linger with a nice after taste.
Has that smooth craftsmanship you can taste. I've come to expect that from Japanese whiskey, and this is no exception. Definitely a good buy.
Has that smooth craftsmanship you can taste. Typical of Japanese whiskey, and this is a good one.
Definitely a sweet one but I enjoyed it.
Not bad but didn't blow me away.
One of my favorites, great price/quality ratio for any occasion.
Excellent from beginning to the end. Full of flavor all a long the way. Go get a bottle now!!!
I loved this whisky, it was very good, really excellent.
Tried drinking this right after Rabbit Hole Bourbon and the sweetness just exploded in my mouth. Was a fantastically unique experience. Love this Whiskey!!!
Wasn't as good as I thought it would be based on the hype and reviews, but still a very good drinkable whiskey. I may be bias to scotch, but this one just didn't have a lot of depth to it. I got the vanilla and the spice/ pepper and a hint of Carmel but that was it. Nothing to exciting for me.
Honestly don't get it. Syrupy thick mouth feel, with a sweet that turns into pepper. Meh. Not a fan.
My first Japanese grain whiskey. I can see this replacing some of my other bottles. The vanilla and sweet fruit were balanced by the spice from the grain. Pleasantly surprised and enjoyed every drop.
Excellent tasting whiskey. First taste of Japanese whiskey did not disappoint. Worth every penny.
There is a reason it is an award winner. Smooth and flavorful.
Smooth with nice long finish. No smoke.
Smooth and interesting, however, the flavor and after taste (strong sweet vanilla) was not to my liking.
Very smooth! This was my first Japanese whiskey. This will be a regular in my collection.
Coffee taste is subtle, it doesn't hit you over the head.
For me, this has always been a hard whiskey to explain. I haven't come across anything quite like this one. I recall the first time I tasted this one; I was in Savannah GA and had to be talked into trying it by the bartender. Thankfully, he was persuasive! The nose is fruity with notes of vanilla the flavor can best be described as soft and elegant with bright fruits and a tinge of chocolate; not syrupy and heavy in any way. The finish is also noticeably short. I've heard other people say things like it isn't "complex" – sometimes simple is preferred! With a cube or two, this is one of the few Whiskeys that I could drink on a hot summers day.
This drink is smooth and I would def buy this again!
Mild smell of vanilla and coffee, smooth aftertaste, lingers in the mouth and gives a mouth watering feeling. Like it!
I love this whisky. As far as Japanese varieties go, I think this is the best available. Nikka makes other really great products, but this Coffey Grain is really something.
Nothing particularly unexpected for whiskey, subtle flavors and smooth with ice.
The quintessential bourbon. Everything is like a variant of this. By far the smoothest liquor I have ever had.
Great, smooth with ice... disappears fast though.
This whisky has a strong alcohol nose that hides the complex and smooth flavors and mouth feel of this expression. This is more widely available than you would expect and that is a huge part of the appeal. try this and it's malt sister for a true taste of superior craftsmanship. For those who like easy drinking on the rocks or neat this is a fantastic spirit that makes your mouth happy. Superb!
Just exquisite. I had this paired with a caramel creme brûlée and I was thoroughly impressed.
an interesting and complex flavor. more sweet (vanilla?) than I would have expected. serve neat with a few drops of water to open it up and experience it fully.
Very smooth, slightly spicy with a hint of coffee!
It's sweet, but not overwhelming so like most bourbons. A lot of vanilla and caramel. This is what I've always wanted to find in a bourbon.
GREAT whisky. Definitely one of my favorites. My only issue is that I found it at my neighborhood store for $12 less than I got it here.
Vanilla stuck out to me, very smooth, now I want to try the Coffey Malt!
I prefer the Coffey Malt - but only slightly. This is a great entry to Japanese whisky if you're a bourbon fan looking for crossover appeal.
Extremely good! Lots of Vanilla and smells of caramel. Obviously sweet and has a great oak barrel flavor to finish. Definitely worth owning a full bottle.
Delicious with a smooth finish.
Pretty sweet but something you can still drink two ounces of without getting sick of it.
Brown sugar, vanilla, creme brulee, a little spice, what's not to like?
A complex and smooth whiskey. A must-try for bourbon lovers.
Love this whiskey. Complex range of flavors and a lot of layers.
Love this whisky. I always have one bottle on hand.
What can I say ... I effen love it!
One of the best whiskeys I've ever tried. Spicy, full and rich with notes of vanilla with a delightful long finish.
Has a very smooth beginning and finishes like a scotch, which I am a fan of.
If I could, I would give it a 9.5. This is a solid Whisky. My only complaint is that Nikka has a Coffey Single Malt that is even better for just $5 more....another Whisky I go to on a regular basis. I feel it is a must for any serious Whisky guy's cabinet. Let it open up for 5-10 minutes and watch your mind get blown.
This is the best Japanese whisky I've had yet. Smooth, but full. Spicy, syrupy. Real nice.
Sweet and smooth with distinctive coffee tease and and pleasing burn at the end! This is a special and different bourbon to have on your shelf for special occasions.
The Flaviar spiral is right on, especially in the early flavors of vanilla followed by pepper. This is a sweet, but not too sweet bourbon drinker's whiskey.
I really like the duality of the spicy pepper and sweet vanilla/caramel. It has the smoothness of a 12+yr.
Great taste, notes of caramel. Flavor has character; complex and lingers on the tongue. Smells alcoholic, the nose doesn't really give you a sense of the amazing flavor.
I purchased this and the Suntory Hibiki Japanese Harmony to try some good Japanese whiskey and this was easily the better of the two! Great taste and very smooth. Both were smooth but this was better. At virtually the same price (actually slightly cheaper) I'd suggest this bottle!
Very smooth with great flavor. Just enough bite to make it fun!
Best damn bottle of Japanese whisky ever-hands down.
Easy going, bit spicy. not overwhelming.
Also a very easy drinking whisky. Somewhere in between a light and dark whisky.
Great fun. Love the addition of coffee to the flavor profile.
is an outstanding, single malt with a birth of corn & herbs, a sweet life of tropical fruit & syrup, while its' death is long & corny. Harmony!
Elegant with an amazing aftertaste. A great introduction to Japanese whiskey!
Japanese take on bourbon. Really great stuff. I haven't had any American bourbons this good.
It is smooth but not a repeat but for me. The taste and after taste are not what I am looking for. The smell is more rubbing alchol with a touch of corn than anything else. 4 drops of distilled water smoothed a double shot out to my drinkable standard.
Very smooth with good flavor.
Loved this Japanese whiskey for the price. Thought is was very smooth and prefer it over Hibiki which was one of my "go-to" bottles.
Extremely smooth and tasted it next to Yamazaki 18yr at The Society bar in the Park Hotel Tokyo. I actually preferred this over the Yamazaki. While it says coffee, it's not a strong coffee flavor, but very smooth and not punishing.
This is a great whiskey. It is on the sweet side, notes of honey or caramel.
Very reminiscent of good bourbon. Flavor Spiral was spot on.
Probably one of the best and most complex whiskies I've had yet. Not for beginners I would say, it is very bold and very unique. I'm torn between sharing it with all my fellow whiskey drinkers and keeping it entirely for myself. If you're an adventurous drinker, I'd highly recommend trying it.
Very pleasant. Good, complex flavors.
Worth every penny and then some. Like a cross between highland and a great bourbon: sweet, kind of light in some regards, smooth down the neck, great finish.
Light and sweet. Definitely a new favorite.
I loved the flavors and the smoothness of this whiskey!
This is a really unique whiskey from Japan. It goes down more like a bourbon than a Japanese whiskey. It hits every bourbon note: vanilla, pepper, spice (cinnamon), caramel, and melon. It also adds some herbal notes which aren't usually found in bourbon: mint, and tea. The finish draws out quite long for a whiskey of this kind.
Very delicious, very special whisky experience from Japan. A real charmer with strong charisma. Sweet in all the right ways, with subtle complexity. A favorite. Looking to try the Coffey Malt.
My favorite so far. Very smooth. After a small sampling I immediately bought a bottle of my own.
Wifey and I both love this one! Absolute must have for your cabinet.
Picked up the bottle on a whim and thought it was okay. The taste was not very robust or interesting, I thought it was rather plain. Would not buy again.
Wonderful firm yet flavoured whiskey.
Wow...It is like sucking on a butterscotch candy.
Nice sweet notes. Smooth finish overall.
One of my favorites, price here is fair if it's your free shipping monthly bottle. You won't find it on a shelf in the us. Master of malt sells it for $57, however shipping to the us is another $50. This dram may be enough to keep me subscribed for a bit.
Deliciously different! Warm and smooth.
This was a great find on vacation.
Good stuff. Great balance of sweet, savory, and alcoholic. Fantastic for mixing or sipping on its own.
Floral and more nuanced than many other varieties of whiskey. A great slow sipper.
Had a taste of this today after being recommended the range. Really nice distinctive flavours for a young whiskey. Highly recommend.

Q: to change the image property of the imageview through code I want to put change the image (source) of the imageview in android UI..
could not do it using the code
my code is as follows :
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.view);

    iv=(ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView11);

    Timer Tim=new Timer();
    Tim.schedule(new TimerTask()
    {   @Override
        public void run()
        {    runthread();   }
    },1000,1000);
}
public void runthread () {
    int x=0;
    if(x==0)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd);    }
    if(x==1)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd1);   }
    if(x==2)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd22);  }
    if(x==3)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd3);   }
    if(x==4)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd4);   }
    if(x==5)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd5);   }
    if(x==6)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd6);   }
    if(x==7)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd7);   }
    if(x==8)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd8);   }
    if(x==9)
    {   iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd9);   }
    x=x+1;
    if(x==10){x=1;}

}

i want to keep counting from 0 to 10 in my UI but this code is not working properly can anyone tel me the problem so that i can modify it so that i can proceed.
thanks in advance

A: initialize your x variable to global meaning initialize it outside your method
,don't keep on initializing it inside your runthread() method , you will always get x=0 for that.
and in your last condition,change it to this
if(x==10){x=0;}
and also
place your timer in onWindowsFocusChanged() override that method
@Override
public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {
super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);
   Timer Tim=new Timer();
   Tim.schedule(new TimerTask()
   {   @Override
       public void run()
       {    runthread();   }
    },1000,1000);
}

because onWindowsFocusChanged() signifies that your layout has been loaded properly, that's the time you can manipulate your Imageview.

A: your are missing thing in your code and that is following
myImgView.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));

so
 public void runthread () {
    int x=0;
    if(x==0)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    if(x==1)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image)); }
    if(x==2)
    {  iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));  }
    if(x==3)
    {    iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    if(x==4)
    {    iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));  }
    if(x==5)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));  }
    if(x==6)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    if(x==7)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    if(x==8)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    if(x==9)
    {   iv.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.Image));   }
    x=x+1;
    if(x==10){x=1;}

change image name and run the code it will work fine

A: 1) Don't use so many "if statment", its dirty code
2) your x variable must be global
3) Use this
private int mX=0;

public void runthread () {
    switch(mX){
        case 0: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd); break;
        case 1: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd1); break;
        case 2: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd2); break;
        case 3: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd3); break;
        case 4: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd4); break;
        case 5: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd5); break;
        case 6: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd6); break;
        case 7: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd7); break;
        case 8: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd8); break;
        case 9: iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd9); break;
    }
    mX = (mX+1) %10;
}

UPDATED:
4) Also don't change UI on another thread (as noticed Simon). Can use this:
    Tim.schedule(new TimerTask(){
        public void run(){
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable() { public void run() { runthread(); } });
        }
    },1000,1000);

A: Based on code provided by Corbella this is for people that dislikes convenience methods as runOnUiThread (Runnable action). Details at bottom.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    private int mX;
    private Handler mHandler;
    private ImageView mImageView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        mHandler = new Handler();
        mImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.image_view);

        updateImageContinuouslyWithTimer();
    }

    private void updateImageContinuouslyWithTimer() {
        Timer timer = new Timer();

        timer.schedule(new TimerTask() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                mHandler.post(new Runnable() {

                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        runthread();
                    }
                });
            }
        }, 1000, 1000);
    }

    public void runthread() {
        switch (mX) {
        case 0:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd);
            break;
        case 1:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd1);
            break;
        case 2:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd2);
            break;
        case 3:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd3);
            break;
        case 4:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd4);
            break;
        case 5:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd5);
            break;
        case 6:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd6);
            break;
        case 7:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd7);
            break;
        case 8:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd8);
            break;
        case 9:
            mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.lcd9);
            break;
        }

        mX = (mX + 1) % 10;
    }
}

It is proper named with lower case and underscores for the XML names and full length names for code. When you code you should aim for readability because not following convention will not only confuse you in the future but also other developers. Also prefix your member variables with m. This is how I suggest you do in the future.

How Does Your Cannabis Company Affect The Environment?
One harsh reality of the cannabis industry is that most business do not engage in environmentally sound business practices. Some state regulations have reduced the amount of water waste, pesticide and herbicide pollution, as well as piles of trash left at cultivation sites, but environmental harm is still prevalent on both legal and illegal cannabis farms. This is partly due to a lack of clear-cut policy specifically addressing environmental compliance with a focus on the ecological challenges present in hemp and cannabis cultivation. However, a lot of the harm can be attributed to a disappointing lack of awareness by corporate cannabis operations that seem more focused on turning profits than building a culture and brand that values our environment.
One of the biggest environmental challenges in the industry right now is the excessive amount of plastic utilized by many companies for cheap, compliant product packaging. Every joint, cannabis concentrate, vape pen cartridge, and edible comes in government mandated child resistant packaging. While some of the more environmentally conscious companies in the industry choose to use glass or recycled materials, the majority of the packaging you see is plastic. For example, concentrates are packaged in a thick glass jar. Edibles are packaged in a plastic bag that then goes inside of a plastic container. Pre-rolled joints and cannabis flower are sold in plastic tubes or jars. When any of these products are purchased, they are then put into a large dispensary printed plastic bag. Considering the massive scale of a continuously expanding industry, that's a lot of plastic put out into the world on a daily basis.
In an ideal world, every company would embrace environmental responsibility and make their business practices more sustainable and environmentally friendly. The human race has done enough damage to our air, water, and soil quality. We believe it's time for a change. And the best way for change to occur, is to lead by example.
PufCreativ encourages our clients and partners to implement sustainable practices in their business models. We believe it is possible to run a profitable business while also engaging in responsible production, growing and packaging practices. Employing this ideology is not only the moral thing to do for our communities and society as a whole, it also creates a positive, forward-thinking reputation for your brand.
PufCreativ is incredibly proud that many of our clients are leading the way in the cannabis industry, influencing brands to develop eco-conscious business models while wholeheartedly demonstrating that you can indeed run a profitable business while engaging in environmentally sustainable practices.
Our client, WaxNax offers pre-loaded and unloaded glass inserts used for dabbing cannabis oil. These inserts reduce the amount of glass cannabis concentrates currently are packaged in by half, and also are sold in recyclable packaging that's made out of food grade polypropylene and can be used in many other ways, like storing your dab tools or flower.
Another client, Pot Zero, runs the world's most sustainable cannabis farm. The farm sits at 8,000 ft and receives its water from a 12,500 ft peak that provides a snowmelt water source located just above the expansive outdoor grow. The water from the snowmelt trickles down the mountain and rests in a reservoir below the farm. From the reservoir, the water is pumped to the plants through a hydroelectric turbine. The farm has a zero carbon footprint. It's remarkable.
Dr. Robb is another PufCreativ client engaging in eco-friendly practices by employing horticultural methods to create the cleanest and highest quality of flower possible for the brand's California consumers. Dr. Robb grows are entirely pesticide free and use hydroponic crop optimization. Hydroponics are great for reducing environmental impact because they require less land use and depletion, reduce fossil fuel use and pollution associated with production, use 90% less water than traditional soil grows, avoid soil erosion and eliminates the need for pesticides and herbicides that can damage or contaminate community water sources.
Terrapin Care Station is yet another PufCreativ client that prides themselves on their efforts to minimize their environmental footprint in the cannabis industry. Terrapin Care Station implements environmentally friendly packaging in the form of TCS jars and closures to bottle flower products in BPA-free packaging manufactured through an eco-friendly process that utilizes I'm green ™ renewable polyethylene, produced from Brazilian sugarcane ethanol. The sugarcane ethanol is a renewable source that is recyclable in the same chain used for recycling traditional polyethylene that is sourced from fossil fuel.
Due to WaxNax, Pot Zero, Dr. Robb and Terrapin Care Station's environmental innovation, they are being recognized as industry influencers by media agencies such as High Times Magazine, Leafly, Dope Magazine, and Now This News. From my perspective, this a perfect marketing situation. We are proud to partner with clients leading and influencing the newly forming and highly malleable industry to elevate the standard and encourage new and existing companies to seek and engage in sustainable practices. While these practices are smart and beneficial to our world, it also provides organic positive press about each company's conscious culture that can be exposed through digital marketing strategy. This in turn, generates revenue, builds positive brand awareness, and sets an elevated environmental standard in the industry.


Offensive Creation - Unlucky or Incompetent?
Which one does Jack claim?
...it's beginning to look like this team is exactly what we expected, a .500-plus-a-few-games team. It could have been so much more with the pickup of one solid bat over the offseason and a couple at the trade deadline. We all instinctively knew it at the time; either Jack just failed to execute, again, or he was, again, just unlucky. People will pick which one based on their view of Jack. I know which one I pick.
Look, let's say this right now: The Mariners are looking like the first team out of the playoffs, with our chance of making the dance falling to 20%. We can still go 10-3 or some-such, see if we can pull out a minor miracle, but nobody else looks like they're gonna help us. We'll have to go on a winning streak instead of counting on some more losing from Detroit or Oakland. They've righted the ship just in time.
That said: before the season, was an 87-ish win team about what we thought we could be? WITH solid contributions from 1B and DH that we didn't get? This is definitely gonna be a could-have-been sort of season if we wind up there, but that's WORLDS better than where we've been. The big question, though: what went wrong with the offense, and Why Oh Why can't we fix it?
Because the "big problem" with the offense is with the big guys. Where is our corner power?
That's almost a thousand plate appearances from guys who are SUPPOSED to hit. Whose JOB it is to hit. A bitterly-struggling SS (Brad Miller and his 84 OPS+) and a 120-games catcher with just 16 walks and a batting average under the Mendoza Line (Zunino's 83 OPS+) outhit all of em.
When Zunino is a .240/.300/.450 catcher it won't matter as much. This year it mattered a lot. Injuries decimated the corner positions... but since we added injury prone players that's kind of to be expected. Jack's best offensive addition not named Cano was the guy I actually wanted us to get: Logan Morrison.
LoMo's amazing line? .247/ .300/ .384/ .683, 95 OPS+. He was better than Zunino and Miller... but still just 90% of what you'd expect from a league-average first baseman (his RF and DH numbers are abominable in the few games he got at each, as might be expected).
The Mariners have the same problem they've had since Jack took over: No corner thumpers. One brilliant Branyan season aside, a 40+ Raul Ibanez is the best we've done. It wouldn't be so annoying if we didn't keep coming up with the same luck. Morse with us? Terrible (thanks in part to a misdiagnosed broken wrist... good job Ms docs). Morse before he got here and after? Terrific (132 OPS+ this year in SF). If we'd re-signed Morse instead of adding Hart, we'd be in the playoffs.
Adding Kendrys at the trade deadline? Perfectly reasonable. Didn't cost us much in prospect value, he hit here last year so we know he can... except he spent the first half of the season smoking cigars and eating Ho-Hos, and is essentially worthless. Good job, Boras. If we'd gotten last year's Kendrys instead of this year's, we'd be in the playoffs.
Should we place bets on whether Corey Hart is gonna post a .780+ OPS next year? Why wouldn't he? Jack is ALWAYS a year off in his additions (except Cano, thankfully). Part of that is probably budget, leaving Jack to select from modest players, or better players with injury concerns. But he keeps rolling snake eyes when it comes to picking a heavy hitter to rent for a season.
Don't look now, but Rendon is a 6 WAR, .825 OPS infield hitter for the Nats. The ONE time we decide to take injury risk into account for hitters and draft a pitcher, we take the arm that blows up and the injury-prone bat is excelling and healthy. If we'd drafted Rendon, we'd be in the playoffs (even playing him out of position at first).
Jack has a lot of trouble getting this right. Maybe DJ Peterson is the answer, or Kivlehan. He could have traded them for a bigger bat this offseason but is sticking with his drafting acumen - even though Seager and now maybe Ackley are the only ones who have been able to be plus hitters. Ackley's bone spurs are also a concern in the OF - we gonna have to move him back to his college position of first base? Saunders can hit, when he's healthy. If we keep him, he'll probably stay injury-prone. If we trade him, he'll hit like Jayson Werth for 155 games a year.
How many snake-eyes can a team roll with talented players before it's a management problem and not a player one?
...The market for FA hitters is going to be pretty bleak. Do you spend big $$$ to lure Victor to Seattle through his age 40 season? Take a shot at Melky? Ugh..
We're right there competitively. We have bullpen arms for days, Hultzen is trying to work his way back into the conversation, and a rotation of Felix / Kuma / Paxton / Elias / Walker should keep you in most games. And that's assuming we don't go add another arm this offseason. I hope we'll sign Seager to an extension, but we should still have plenty of cash to make some things happen. Are those things trades or FA signings? Like Grizz said, the field is pretty bleak for FAs. Maybe Yasmani Tomas, if we can pay him to show up (If we'd added Jose Abreu, we'd... ah, you know).
Jack has held fast on keeping his prospects, for better or worse. We can't fit all the arms in the pen. If we sign a pitcher, then we can't fit all the arms in the rotation either. Regardless of how this year winds up, next year we're counting on Jack to do what he has been astonishingly and pitifully unable to do: add a baseball player who can hit for less than a quarter of a billion dollars.
Or we wait - again - for the kids to come through. This is the year that Miller explodes. That Ackley posts that .800+ OPS for the whole year, not just the second half. Thank Peterson or Kivlehan lands with a splash that DOESN'T GO AWAY. That Saunders is healthy. Etc, etc, etc.
Requiring your players to be at max output for success is not a good plan. We need flex. It's gonna be a long offseason for Jack Doubters, because the fate of the 2015 team is Out There Somewhere, an addition required to take the offense from "barely acceptable" to "contender." Otherwise we're waiting for 2016, which I think is a foolish squandering of yet another likely Cy Felix season but still looks like the timeline to me without the right offensive addition.
I believe in a lot of the kids on the team and in the minors. I don't believe the minors can help us in 2015, certainly not the first half. And we've learned that the Ms tend to have slow learners at the big-league level.
The good news? Jack doesn't have to convince a FA to come here, because there isn't a top-flight one worth having really (Tomas aside).
The bad news? We'll need to trade kids for an upgrade, and we have no basis for believing we can do that succcessfully.
I've enjoyed this season greatly, and I'll watch to the probably-bitter end. It's a building season with a new manager and kids who had never been under playoff pressure before - the King included. I'm thankful for meaningful September games on a young and growing team for the first time in... forever. We can take this and use it as a launch point for a contender into the next decade.
Tastes pretty sweet - but I wanna eat that victory cake, not smell it.
Question for Jack and the M's: How do you sign a 30-year old $240 million player to match with your in-his-prime ace and then settle for embarking on a 3-year plan of gradual improvement that banks on realizing the potential of unproven young players and squanders the best years of your Dynamic Duo?
Point re: Young Talent: The Angels, who put FAR less emphasis on drafting and player development, CONTINUE to produce young talent that outpaces ours (wouldn't we LOVE to have a young outfielder step in like Kole Calhoun and OPS .800 over the first 700 plate appearances of his regular use?).
My Only Quibble: Just a thought. You should probably reserve the use of the term "inestimable" for peoples' whose work is, well...inestimable. Me, I just ask questions and point things out that occur to me. I'm the thinking man's hack.
Come to think of it, "inestimable" is probably not yet applicable to our extended GM (which, of course, you did not do).
Ackley: I'm still not convinced he's "turned the corner" until he demonstrates he can do so for a full season. Trend analysis and scouting prognosis aside, there's any number of players who have hot periods of 2-3 months but never put it together for a full season of production. To me, as Jack's sixth season draws to a close, out of all his prospect efforts Seager remains the sole proven player who can be reasonably counted on to hold down a position and produce over a full season. One thing I will say, though, is that going into this season I had contended that Seager had not yet proven he was a great as some people seemed to imply. This year, he sold me big time. Oh to have a RH bat that can anchor the spot between him and Cano.
This year wasn't wasted, but we could have deployed real resources and made it better.
Next year... Let's plan on winning the division, shall we? Trying to squeak into the 2nd wildcard is a fallback in case of disaster, not the best the roster should be capable of.
I hate watching Matt Carpenter in St. Louis, btw, since I wanted to trade for him when he was meandering along in the Cards' system. There are players out there who can step up and contribute. Seager was one. He wasn't GREAT to start with, but he was a player, and every year since he's come into his own.
I'm hoping Kivlehan is one of those. I'm also hoping we don't trade Kivlehan for one year of a beat-up, injury-prone hitter. Of course, maybe we trade him in a package for 2 years of someone like Encarnacion. Not likely (Edwin is amazingly productive and incredibly cheap at 10 mil per for the next 2 years) but Jack needs somebody, and we have the prospects to make a credible offer for almost anyone.
Just needs to be the right someone. Can't waste any more of the Felix Years, and Cano's not getting any younger.
It really doesn't matter if he is wrong or right, where he belongs he's right...where he belongs.
If my math is right, 2014 was Smoak's last option year. That means that he can't be optioned next year without a DFA. Look for Smoak to be traded for a bucket of balls this winter. LoMo has clearly beat him out for his spot. So Grizz's question is this: Do you shoot for V-Mart, or try for a rebound project, or stay in house for 1B-DH?
It seems like the front office has been 0fer a million on these one year rebound players that try to make it in the Safe. Safeco just isn't the sort of environment for a rebounding hitter to come in for a soft landing. The Mariners should stick to stars, or fungible scrubs on this one.
Smoak is burnt toast, Montero needs a change of scenery. The young guys are golden, but MLB 1B/DH is a bit much to saddle a youngster with. With Choi, notice that his suspension was in April 2014, and he came back in June after being demoted to AA and immediately got two hits. Then, he lasted only four games in AA before being reinstated in the PCL, and put together a .774 OPS season for the Rainiers.
The problem with Choi is that he hits lefty, and he's probably not better than LoMo. If he were right handed, he could slot in as an ideal platoon partner.
The other candidates are probably too young to consider. Kiv and Deej need a little while in the high minors before being relied on as MOTO guys.
So, we have V-Mart for the annual gross domestic product of the Marshall Islands or thereabouts, and Country Breakfast. Butler is a career .913 hitter versus lefties and he was .849 OPS v. left in 2014. We could use some of that.
What about Butler's .690 OPS? Well, it may make the budget Royals decline his 2015 12.5 million team option. If he was killing it, he wouldn't even be available.
Other ideas? Maybe the Angels would trade us Albert Pujols or something.
Of course we've got the whole winter to ponder this, but going in we should at least agree there is no simple and obvious solution.
If the goal is a 'proven' bat to hit between Cano and Seager...who's right handed...and can play first base--well, good luck. In the unlikely situation that somehow all of Abreu, Goldschmidt, Encarnacion and Miggy are not going to be made available--at any price--what's left? Mojician hit it right on the head with his list: find the money and persuasion for Victor...or take your chances on Butler (if available) or Napoli or Morse. I'm guessing that neither of these last two guys makes anyone all warm and fuzzy inside.
Otherwise, Trumbo? Convince Hanley to play first and pay him the world? Try to find out if Willingham can build on his three games of MLB experience at first, at age 36?
I understand DH also plays into the calculation. But the reason that we're desperately looking for proven power...is that everyone else is, too.
Kivlehan and Deej are on very fast tracks if it is me in the front office.
One of those guys needs to contribute for us next year.
And like Daddy, I'm not yet full in on Ackley as a real-deal hitter.
He gets LF to start next year, and he's better than two years ago, but he's not put anything together for a full season.....and he's fragile, hitting-wise, to say the least.
You can't really plan on hitters jumping from AA and high A ball and making any real offensive contribution. If they force their way into the picture, great. But you can't base your off season on it.

Cleroy was lost without his Dolly. He became a hermit, living on an assortment of medications and playing his harmonica by the hour.
"I don't care much for fried squirrel or rutabaga dressing," said Cleroy, fighting back in the only way he knew, demeaning the only two dishes Aunt Doris knew how to prepare.
Aunt Doris accepted his criticism as a part of living with a man. "Men are beasts," said she when Cleroy pushed her in-law button and mentioned with a maddening grin that her mother's lima beans 'n catfish over rice reminded him of the meals served in the drunk tank at the Sheriff's office.
"That does it" said Aunt Doris, following one of their verbal wars concerning Cleroy's failures in the Cherish the Wife department.
Steam coming from her delicate ears, she stuffed his two shirts and a pair of Salvation Army gabardines into a grocery bag, placed the bag in his arms and pointed toward the door.
"I guess the honeymoon is over," said Cleroy with a maddening grin, as he moved out of the door and headed for solace at 4th & Oak, where Friendly Inn bartenders had catered to misunderstood husbands since the Great Flood of 1937.
At that time, we had just moved to Flippin to assume ownership of Cannabis Acres, a mobile home development that gave the term "house trailer" a bad name.
Despite luxurious amenities like indoor toilets, running water and a wringer washing machine stationed beneath a large oak, the "happy residents" mentioned by the real estate salesman turned out to be more interested in hunting, fishing, river guiding and snuff sniffing, than paying rent.
The "happy children playing in the green space," the salesman chuckled about were in the hands of Children's Home Services because visiting investigators had discovered the "green space" was a mine field of weeds, rocks, crushed cans, used snuff and other deposits left there by fur bearing creatures yet to be categorized by the college crowd.
Cannabis Acres was known for its pit bulls, carnivorous creatures who lived beneath the mobiles. The pit bulls were classic in design, with 36-inch chests, and size 12 teeth. They never smiled, and seemed to harbor an urgent need to find and terrorize any newcomer.
A brindle mix, name of Hannibal, who shook the ground when he walked and rivaled the tyrannosaurus in size and disposition, seemed to take special exception to our being on the place.
Hannibal was housed and fed by a shirtless specimen of Ozark manhood so hairy as to have me thinking he had grown his own sweater. Amused at our interest, he shared his secret for raising pit bulls to the size of hippo's.
Through an ever-present re-election program designed to pry votes out of the Great Unwashed, President Reagan's handlers became personally interested in the plight of Cleroy and Dolly.
They sent them blocks of "surplus"cheese the size of a loaf of bread and enough bologna "over runs" to shingle a gymnasium.
With such a food windfall, Cleroy and Dolly spent their Social Security money on Lucky Strikes and that "Good ole" All American (a flag photo on every can) Beer.
Dolly's lungs went first. There was the feeling of malaise, then the cough, the loss of appetite, the weeks in the hospital … and she was gone.
"Did you take your pills today, Uncle Cleroy,?" I asked during a visit.
Stirring the contents of the bowl with a spoon, I realized he was opening his prescription bottles and pouring the pills into the bowl.
"I'm supposed to take three of 'em every day," he said.
Uncle Cleroy did well on his multi-pill diet for a while. Then, he became ill. Doctors said it was probably the infection from the pit bull bite that did him in. He seemed content when facing the end.

Bethesda United Missionary Church, located four miles (6.5 km) northeast of Gormley, Ontario, was organized as a preaching location in about 1880. The congregation had 31 members in 1948. Prior to 1934 it was part of a multiple-point charge and shared membership with the Gormley Mennonite Brethren in Christ church. In 1958 it ended its separate identity and became part of the Gormley congregation.

Governments may draft contracts with market agents for allocating subsidies and pursuing specific policy goals. Contract enforcement via binding commitments is difficult, however, when exogenous (environmental) and endogenous (behavioural) risks interact. Analyzing the old debt compromise in east German housing, it results that a sophisticated design of contractual incompleteness may provide a reasonable safeguard against opportunistic behaviour. Yet it involves considerable costs and still does not guarantee that policy goals are achieved. The crucial policy question is if contracts can be drafted without creating a one-sided holdup potential or if governments should not co-operate with market agents but commit to policy rules.

About the Artist, Vincent van Gogh
Vincent van Gogh (born March 30, 1853, Zundert, Netherlands—died July 29, 1890, Auvers-sur-Oise, near Paris, France) was a Dutch post-impressionist painter who posthumously became one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art.
In a decade, he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, most of which date from the last two years of his life. They include landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits, and are characterized by bold colors and dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork that contributed to the foundations of modern art. He was not commercially successful, and his death at 37 came after years of mental illness, depression and poverty.

Maybe someday soon, somewhere
Derek & the Dominos - 'Thorn Tree in the Garden' (Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs - 1971)
Eric Clapton had burnt through "supergroups" Cream and Blind Faith by the end of the sixties and wanted something more low-key for the 1970s. Derek and The Dominoes allowed him to play smaller clubs without the baggage of 'Clapton is God' he'd accrued over the preceding years.
Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs is the group's only album, formed after working on George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. It is hard to think of a more appropriate title for an album; 'Layla' looms large over the album as much as Patti Boyd looms over 'Layla', and I don't think anyone begrudges downplaying the rest of the album as other assorted love songs.
The album is a double album full of blues-rock licks and interpretations of other blues songs, old and contemporary. Some consider it to be a blues-rock masterpiece. I think it is one of the flabbier double LPs of the 'classic rock' era. While it probably didn't deserve to be a commercial and critical flop on release, the pendulum of reassessment may have swung too far in the other direction.
'Thorn Tree In The Garden' owes its existence to producer Tom Dowd noting that even after the extended piano refrain of Laya, now of course closely associated with Goodfellas, there would be a few minutes of room on the record.
Step forward keyboard player Bobby Whitlock with this song, which Clapton doesn't even sing on. The track is a comedown from the raucousness of the album and the title track that precedes it. Despite being one step removed from Clapton himself, it ties in with the other songs on the album and their theme of unrequited love. Or at least it seems like it does.
Whitlock has said that song was about a landlord who asked him to get rid of his dog and then did it himself; it started with the landlord as a "snake in the grass" and ended up as a thorn tree in the "perfect garden" he had created in his life at the time.
The band recorded the song the round, Whitlock told Songfacts.
"Eric and Duane and Jim and Carl and myself all got around one microphone. Tom Dowd came out and placed us just so; everybody was a certain distance in and out, and we did it just like that. I was sitting on a bar stool - Eric was to my left, Duane was directly across from me, Carl was to my right and Jim was between Duane and Eric with a little bell. Carl was playing a pedal bass, Duane was on dobro and Eric was playing acoustic guitar with a pick next to me. I was picking with my fingers."
The result was a song that Tom Dowd told an interview in Producer magazine where he called the track "The Perfect Stereo Recording."
After an album of virtuosity and showmanship, it is almost jarring to hear each member adding subtle, quiet and melancholic acoustic contributions. Some might have preferred the coda to Layla to continue and finish the album for a couple of extra minutes, but we would miss this quiet little gem that outshines many other assorted love songs on the record.

Q: if $f$ is continuous, then $f$ is uniformly continuous If every continuous funtion $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ is uniformly continuous, where $X \subset \mathbb{R}$. Then $X$ is closed. But not necessarily compact
It's like the reciprocal of continuous $f$ and $X$ compact, then $f$ is uniformly continuous. But I do not know where to start
help

A: If $X$ is not closed then there exists a limit point $x_0 \in \mathbb{R}$ not contained in $X$. Then, the function
$$f(x) := \frac{1}{x-x_0}$$
is continuous on $X$ but not uniformly continuous.  Note that since this argument does not rely on $X$ being bounded or not, we cannot make any deduction about compactness of $X$.

A: If $X$ were not closed, so that $a\in \mathbb{R} \backslash X$ is a limit point for $X$, the function $f(x)=\frac{1}{x-a}$ defined on $X$ is continuous but not uniformly continuous, since it is unbounded on any neighborhood of $a$.

Q: Goto address book/contact number directly from app I want to make an app and want to access the contact numbers directly when i touch/press a particular text field or button and then return to my app with a selected contact number. How can i do this.

A: You need to add  ABPeoplePickerNavigationControllerDelegate delegate in .h file
and in .m file write down below three methods:
#pragma mark People Picker Delegate Methods

- (void)peoplePickerNavigationControllerDidCancel:
  (ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker {
[peoplePicker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[peoplePicker autorelease];
     }

- (BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:
  (ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker
  shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person {

return YES;
   }

- (BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:
(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker
  shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person
                            property:(ABPropertyID)property
                          identifier:(ABMultiValueIdentifier)valueID{

ABPropertyType type = ABPersonGetTypeOfProperty(property);
if (type==kABMultiDictionaryPropertyType) {

    ABMutableMultiValueRef multi = ABRecordCopyValue(person, property);

    CFIndex index = ABMultiValueGetIndexForIdentifier(multi, valueID);
    CFDictionaryRef dic = ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(multi, index);
    CFStringRef street = CFDictionaryGetValue(dic, kABPersonAddressStreetKey);

    NSString* StreetName =(NSString*)street;
    streetNameText.text=StreetName;
    NSLog(@"StreetName:%@",StreetName);
    NSRange range = NSMakeRange (0, 5);
    NSLog (@"Beer shortname: %@", [StreetName substringWithRange:range]);
    int val = [StreetName intValue];
    NSLog(@"StreetName:%d",val);
    NSString *newChange = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%d", val];
    streetNOText.text = newChange;

    [newChange release];
    CFRelease(dic);
    CFRelease(multi);
}

[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
return NO;

     }

A: I am not able to give you the whole code. Following bare the steps :
1. On click to button go to new view which must have tableview
2. In that view get the address book
To get the addressbook

*

*Add these frameworks:
AddressBook,
AddressBookUI

*import them in your view
And for getting the contacts from addressbook refer the following tutorial
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/ContactData/Conceptual/AddressBookProgrammingGuideforiPhone/Chapters/QuickStart.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40007744-CH2-SW1
I know this is not the full solution for your question but this link will help you to get the remaining task...Good luck

A: May this method will help you, just call this method when you want to fetch records from addressbook. n ofcourse add the frameworks AddressBook, AddressBookUI
first create database (as i did if you want you can store it into NSMutable Array instead of database, as per your requirement.)
-(void)fetchRecordsFromAddressBook
{
ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate();
CFArrayRef allPeople = ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople(addressBook);
CFIndex nPeople = ABAddressBookGetPersonCount(addressBook);

//NSArray *addresses = (NSArray *) ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople(addressBook);

//  [arrayContacts removeAllObjects];

[self emptyDataContext];

for (int i = 0; i < nPeople; i++)
{

    ABRecordRef ref = CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(allPeople, i);

    //////////////////  get first name  ///////////////////

    CFStringRef firstName = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonFirstNameProperty);

    CFStringRef lastName = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonLastNameProperty);

    CFStringRef nickName = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonNicknameProperty);

    CFStringRef middleName = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonMiddleNameProperty);

    //////////////////  get image  ///////////////////

//      ABMultiValueRef ContactImage = (ABMultiValueRef) ABRecordCopyValue(ref,kABPersonImageFormatThumbnail);

    NSData *data=nil;

//  NSLog(@"Image Testing is : %@",ref);

    if(ABPersonHasImageData(ref))
    {
        data = [(NSData *) ABPersonCopyImageData(ref) autorelease];
        if(data)
        {
        //  NSLog(@"Im Testing is : %@",data);

            //image = [[UIImage alloc] initWithData:data];
        }
    }

//      NSLog(@"Image is : %@",ContactImage);
//      NSLog(@" Name is : %@",firstName);

    //////////////////  get email  ///////////////////

    ABMultiValueRef emails = (ABMultiValueRef) ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonEmailProperty);

    NSString *emailID=@"";
