Using autosteer, when the conditions are very good (clear weather, high contrast center lines, controlled access roads, etc.) allow a longer time between the "hold the steering wheel" reminders.
Another option would allow the driver to select the interval amount, like some of the other settings along with appropriate warnings for picking a higher interval.
I appreciate the alertness reminders in EAP for where it is in development, it needs to be smarter or variable.
Multiple stories of drivers trying to do all sorts of silly things to override this feature in an unsafe way shows that drivers would like more control over the frequency of the alerts.
I would argue "drivers trying to do all sorts of silly things to override this feature in an unsafe way " do not understand they are playing with fire and most likely also do not understand why Tesla is approaching the suite of Autopilot features in their chosen manner.

The Optimal Size of the Military in a Post-Castro Cuba
Carlos Seiglie
In addressing the question of what is the optimal size of the defense sector in a post-Castro Cuba, we must first establish some criteria by which we can judge different alternatives. In this paper, the criteria that I use is one where the level of the military sector is determined by the preferences of the median voter. In other words, I assume that a representative democracy will exist in Cuba after Castro and that the decisive individual is the median voter. Allowing for different ways of collectively aggregating the preferences of different individuals, while yielding a different optimal level, will still possess all the characteristics of the approach used in this paper.
Individuals are assumed to make choices over consumption and national security. The latter is important because it can be seen as a way for individuals to self-protect against a future attack by an adversary who will confiscate some portion of their wealth if successful in its efforts. Defense serves to raise the cost of an attack to the perpetrator, i.e., it provides a means of deterrence to a country. Military spending is therefore a derived demand for an underlying commodity which is the increase in expected utility resulting from the higher probability of being able to consume one's wealth at a future period in time. The next section of the paper briefly outlines the theory and the final section discusses the optimal level of spending for Cuba under various different scenarios regarding the economic and political conditions which could prevail in Cuba.
THE DEMAND FOR NATIONAL SECURITY
This section generalizes the demand for national security in Seiglie (1988) in several directions. First, it introduces the possibility that expenditures by enemies decrease welfare just as those by allies increase welfare. Second, since the economy is open and in a steady state equilibrium, the budget constraint faced by individuals is altered. These extensions will be developed under the assumption that preferences take a particular functional form that generates linear military expenditure functions.
The amount of military capability produced or imported by a nation is not necessarily equal to the amount available for its consumption. Part of the difference is due to the public goods aspect of military alliances which has been discussed in the economic literature. The other part results from the fact that some proportion of an adversary's military capability spills over and decreases the effectiveness of the country's military defense, i.e., it reduces its national security. In the discussion that follows we denote the adversary of Cuba as country e (denoting enemy) and its potential ally as US. The proportion of country e's weapon stock that reduces Cuba's national security will be denoted by ace. Likewise, some proportion of Cuba's military capability reduces country e's national security; denote this as aec. These proportions differ for each country depending, for example, on the percentage of military spending directed towards offensive versus defensive purposes. If we represent the total amount of spillover from the adversarial country e towards Cuba by Mce and the positive spillover from the ally, the US, by McUS then the total consumption of national security by Cuba is mc, where
and Mc is the total amount produced by Cuba. By our previous assumption,
where Me is the total amount of military capability produced by country e and therefore, some fraction of that total, ace, reduces the effectiveness of Cuba's national security. The variable ve is a measure of hostile actions by country e which signal intentions and is assumed independent of Me. A similar interpretation holds for the positive spillover, McUS resulting from a military alliance, i.e., we assume some fraction bcUS of the US military serves to protect Cuba.
Therefore, the total effective consumption of military capability for Cuba, mc, is equal to:
Likewise, for country e which is assumed to be allied to country R,
In the model, the coefficient aij is viewed as a measure of the degree of spillover embodied in the armament of the opponent. For example, if the weapons of the opponent were mainly offensive then aij would be high, but if the weapon systems of the opponent were mainly defensive then aij would be low. The other coefficient vi can be viewed as a hostility signal. As such, it reflects the perception of threat or hostility directed towards country i from other nations. Analogously, b represents the spillins resulting from military alliances.
Let the representative citizen of country 1 have preferences represented by the following Stone-Geary utility function:
where c represents consumption and c̅ denotes a "minimum" subsistence level of consumption. We assume the Cuban economy is in a steady state with a capital/labor ratio, k*, and an average propensity to save, s*. For the overall economy with N individuals,
where I denotes national income; E1 the expenditure of the ith individual; Ii his income; and s1 his savings rate.
Cuba's defense expenditure is equal to PM Mc where PM is the unit cost of maintaining a national defense of size Mc. The ith individual's tax share to finance these expenditures will be denoted by ti, so that choosing consumption as the numeraire commodity, his budget constraint is:
Following Dudley and Montmarquette (1981), note that if the only tax rate, t, imposed by the government is proportional to income then
where Y is Cuba's per capita income.
Per capita income Y is a function of the degree of openness of the economy δ, i.e., I(δ) with I'(δ)>0. In other words, as the degree of openness of the economy increases, military spending increases.
Maximization of equation (5) subject to (7) yields the following first order conditions:
which when substituting
along with our budget constraint yields the following demand (reaction) function:
We can see from the above that the demand for defense is increasing in income and decreasing in the cost of maintaining the military, PM.
Several other results emerge from equation (10). Firstly, Mc is increasing in the opponent's level of military weapons, Me. Secondly, Mc is also increasing in the "degree of aggression," Ve of the adversary, i.e., increasing in the level of conflict with adversaries. Thirdly, the weapon stock is decreasing in the level of weapons of the ally. This tendency to free-ride off the ally is increasing in the degree that the ally's weapons have the non-rivalness property of a public good and in the strength of the alliance. This degree of non-rivalness is implicitly incorporated in bcUS. This coefficient also captures the fact that an ally that is not very likely to intervene on behalf of Cuba will not greatly reduce the latter's level of armaments. Mc is also increasing in the threat of the adversary's weapons, ace. For example, the proximity of the two countries geographically is important if the countries do not possess long range missiles or bombers so that the closer they are the higher is ace, or if they are contiguous countries the mix of the weapon stock between offensive and defensive systems is important with an increase in offensive weapons implying a rise in ace. finally, Mc is decreasing in the tax share, ti.
The military expenditure function for Cuba, MEc which is equal to PM Mc is the following after substituting for τ and assuming that the representative individual's savings rate is equal to the steady state rate, s* we get
where I is real national income, S (equal to s*I) is real national savings and β1 , β4 and β6 are greater than zero and β2 β3 and β5 are less than zero.
Several propositions emerge from this expenditure function, namely that military expenditures should be increasing in: 1) income; 2) the opponent's expenditures; 3) the level of conflict or aggression directed towards it from other nations and decreasing in: 4) allies' expenditures; 5) the savings rate; 6) the tax share; 7) the minimum subsistence level; and 8) the strength of the alliance, bcUS.
Finally, the above assumes that countries trade at world market prices. Since the gains from trade are decreasing in distortions to world prices and since wars or international conflicts serve to raise the transaction costs involved in trade with the rest of the world, we expect that the greater that an economy is dependent on world trade and therefore, the greater is the sum of consumers' and producers' surplus derived from this trade, the greater will be its military expenditures in order to protect these gains. Therefore, military expenditures should be increasing in the extent that an economy is open to world trade.
ESTIMATES OF THE MILITARY EXPENDITURES FUNCTION
In this section, estimates are presented for the parameters of the expenditure function (equation 11) derived above. The variable Oi, denotes the degree of openness of the economy. We also introduce a constant to the equation, as well as an error term, ei. The definitions of the variables are as follows. Our dependent variable, ME, denotes the real military expenditures of the country. As for our explanatory variables, I refers to the level of real GNP and S to the level of real national savings for country i. As for (1/ti), it is the inverse of the tax share of the representative individual in the country, which from equation (8) is equal to the inverse of the share of real income of the representative individual in GNP. As a proxy for this variable we have used a Gini coefficient of sectoral inequality published by the World Bank. A better proxy would have been a Gini coefficient based on individual income or households, but such a measure is unavailable for many of the countries used in our sample. We therefore expect that as inequality increases (the Gini coefficient rises, i.e., ti falls and (1/ti) rises), the country's military expenditures MEi, should rise. Therefore, we expect the sign of its coefficient to be positive.
As for the other variables, MEj represents the military expenditures of the adversarial nation. We expect the coefficient, b4 to be positive. Conversely, MEk denotes the military expenditures of countries allied to country i. This captures the spill-in from the alliance's expenditure into the particular member country. Our model predicts the sign of this variable to be negative due to the free-riding problem inherent in public goods. As for our coefficient of aggression, vj, which measures the aggression from the rest of the world towards country i we expect its sign to be positive, i.e., increases in foreign aggression should lead to increases in expenditures.
To arrive at a measure for this latter variable I have used the Conflict and Peace Data Bank (COPDAB) developed by Azar (1980a, 1980b). The COPDAB consists of approximately 500,000 international events which occurred from 1948 to 1978. Each event entry in the data base lists the actor and target nation, the issue involved and the date of occurrence. The source of information is taken from close to 100 regional and international publications. The data base consists of a ranking of events according to a predetermined scale aimed at quantifying the intensity of the event ranging from the most cooperative given a value of 1, such as the voluntary unification of nation-states to the most conflictful which is given a value of 15, an extensive war act. In order to arrive at a level of aggression towards a country from the rest of the world (vj) I have taken the average of the scaling of hostility from all countries in the data base towards that particular country during the year and conversely. So for example, if a country has had three international interactions in a particular year: 1) war was declared against it by a neighboring country (scale=15); 2) a country strongly attacked it verbally (scale=10); and 3) it formed a major strategic alliance with another country (scale=2), then the index of hostility for the year would be 9, (15+10+2)/3. This index was calculated for all countries in the sample listed in COPDAB for each year.
Correcting for the possibility of heteroscedasticity, the estimated military expenditure function is the following: 1
Using these estimates for the variables we can analyze the level of defense expenditures in a post-Castro Cuba under various scenarios. Before we do so, Figures 1 and 2 shows the estimated size of the Cuban military for selected measures. It is obvious that there has been a sharp decline in the size of the military sector whether measured in real 1988 dollars or as a percentage of total output. Recent estimates place Cuban military spending in 1988 dollars at 354 million dollars and its share in total output declining to 2 percent.
The natural question to ask is if Cuba had different economic and political characteristics, what would be the optimal level of military spending? Given the space constraints, let me propose one of many plausible scenarios. Suppose that Cuba had a level of GNP (GDP) equivalent to that of Chile and a national savings rate of 20 percent (less than Chile's). Furthermore, assume that Cuba had as a natural adversary a country such as the Dominican Republic and that Cuba had the United States as an ally (as is the case for example, with Canada). Finally, assume that the Cuban economy is as open as that of the Dominican Republic or Jamaica. Under these conditions, Cuba would have to confront an international environ ment with a level of hostility towards it resulting in a COPDAB score of 9.2 to justify having a military for national security reasons. This score is defined as experiencing mild verbal hostility or discord with the rest of the world. More specifically, this corresponds to low-key objections to policy or behavior; expressing discontent through third parties; objections to explanation of policy and requests by other countries for a change in policy.
It is surprising that to justify current levels of Cuban military spending would require a value close to 10, which corresponds to a climate of strong verbal hostility towards it. Examples of this are strong condemnations by the international community of its actions or policies; threats of retaliation for acts it commits; denunciation of Cuba's leaders, system or ideology; strong propaganda attacks; postponement of head of state visits or withdrawal from meetings or summits; and blocking or vetoing actions in international bodies.
It may seem that this is the scenario that Cuba currently is facing in the world and this is what justifies its current levels (estimates). This is not in fact the case since the scores or values for the COPDAB is for an average of all countries' actions towards Cuba. Therefore, while the United States may have a hostile policy towards Cuba, the rest of the world has much better relations with it, and therefore, the value or score is lower. In conclusion, Cuba would have to be the subject of fairly widespread hostilities by members of the international community to justify a post Castro Cuba having any significant military, if as I suggest, it proposes to ally itself with the United States (as is currently the case for NATO member countries or for that matter, Puerto Rico).

Complete effort for Cavaliers
Published 12:28 pm Wednesday, September 30, 2020
The rematch was no contest.
Last November, Callaway rallied from an early 14-point deficit to beat Douglass-Atlanta 41-20 to reach the semifinals of the Class AA state playoffs.
Those teams met again on Friday in Atlanta, and Callaway dominated every facet of the game on the way to a 35-0 victory.
While Callaway's offense churned out plenty of yards and found the end zone five times, the defense tossed a shutout against a Douglass-Atlanta team with plenty of weapons.
Callaway improved to 3-0, and it is off this week before finishing its non-region schedule next week against Thomas County Central.
Here are some highlights from Callaway's impressive win:
GETTING IT DONE: Last year, the Callaway Cavaliers had to play part of the season without all-state running back Cartavious "Tank" Bigsby, who missed significant time with an injury.
Fortunately for Callaway, Charlie Dixon filled in admirably for Bigsby, and the offense kept right on rolling.
Flash forward a year and Dixon is now the featured back, but he went down with a toe injury during a week two games against Hardaway.
Once again Callaway needs someone to step in and fill the void, and LaQuize Gilbert looks like he's up to the challenge.
In a dominant 35-0 win over Douglass-Atlanta last week, Gilbert had 12 carries for a team-leading 92 yards, and he scored three touchdowns.
Zach Giddens, Callaway's offensive coordinator, was glad to have Gilbert available with Dixon unable to play.
"(Gilbert's) a phenomenal football player," Giddens said on Callaway's weekly radio show. "He's an excellent running back. Overall, he can do a lot of things on offense, he plays inside linebacker, and he does a great job on special teams for us. He's a really good asset, and really did a good job subbing in for Charlie."
Gilbert had touchdown runs of 11 and 18 yards in the first half, and he added a 15-yard scoring run in the second half.
Gilbert also had a monster game on defense with a team-best 12 tackles, even though he was limited to about 30 snaps because of all the time he was spending on offense.
"The great thing about (Gilbert), he's real consistent at what he does as far as a running back is concerned. He hits the hole really well, does what he's coached to do," Giddens said. "Once he gets to the line of scrimmage, he's doing what he does. He can be a physical runner at times, he's got a great cut as well and can make people miss. As far as defense is concerned, he does a great job flying around being physical. I'm just proud of him, and really excited for him."
DEFENSIVE LEADERS: It was another lock-down effort by Callaway's defense.
After giving up a combined 13 points in the first two games against Troup and Hardaway, Callaway kept Douglass-Atlanta off the scoreboard in last week's 35-0 win.
While LaQuize Gilbert led the way with 12 tackles, fellow senior linebacker Austin Thomas added 11 tackles with one for loss, and he forced a fumble.
Defensive lineman Trey Stephens had seven tackles with one for loss, and defensive back Jalin Shephard had an interception.
SENIOR SHINES: Demetrius Coleman is best known for his ability to beat teams in the passing game, but he can get it done on the ground as well as he showed last week against Douglass-Atlanta.
Coleman had 11 carries for 63 yards, and he had a 2-yard touchdown run.
While Coleman wasn't asked to throw much, he did complete 3-of-8 passes for 41 yards, and he tossed a 20-yard scoring pass to Treyon Tucker.
"He really competed his tail off," offensive coordinator Zach Giddens said of Coleman. "I couldn't be more proud of him as far as running the football, doing what we ask of him in the passing game. When things didn't go well, he didn't lose his cool. When things were really great for us, he didn't get out of what he does. You can't be more proud of that kid and the way he played, and the way he competes and shows up for practice each day."
FRESHMEN EXCEL: During an intra-squad scrimmage, freshman wide receiver Treyon Tucker showed what he was capable of when he made an acrobatic touchdown catch.
That was a sign of things to come.
While Tucker didn't have any catches in the first two games of the season, he had a breakout moment against Douglass-Atlanta with a 20-yard scoring reception from Demetrius Coleman.
Tucker got behind the Douglass defense, and Coleman found him standing alone in the end zone.
Jalin Shephard and Kevin Alfero had Callaway's other catches.
Another freshman, running back Jordan King, also had a productive game against Douglass-Atlanta with 10 carries for 45 yards.
PERFECT NIGHT: Blake Eubanks continues to split the uprights.
Eubanks, Callaway's junior place kicker, was perfect on all five of his extra-point attempts against Douglass-Atlanta.
UP NEXT: Callaway will complete its non-region schedule with a game at Thomas County Central on Oct. 9, and it will be the first time those teams have ever played.

Two sisters are in love with the same guy. This guy likes only one of them, and he is going to tell the other sister (who's a dancer) to back off, but then she gets hit by a car and becomes crippled. In the end, he gives up the girl she likes and marries the crippled girl.

Hi, I´m looking for a recent (2-3 years) taiwanese drama. it´s about a girl (myabe Raine Yang or somebody similar to her) who wants to get revenge on a fashion stylist who stoled her mothers ideas along with a doll. she enters a fashion college and meets some guy who is a son of the bad guy (or something along these lines). I´m not sure but I think she had a female friend and they were in japan (or did she imagine that?) and she thought how beautiful and stylish all the girls are..
Thanks for help
Of course I´m sane, when trees start talking to me, I don´t talk back.

Hi first time posting here. There is a drama stuck in my head that I can't think of.
First, when I was a kid, there was this chinese drama that my parents let me watched. It was a simple concept where a guy meets a girl and i believe he falls for her. Then something happend and he was sent to jail for like 5 or so eps. In jail, he meets a guy who I believe is either his cellmate or the person in the cell next to his. They become good friends and eventually, when the main char got out of jail, he seeked the girl he met. The friend he makes also stay by his side.
There are some descriptions I remember somewhat clearly. The main character in the beginning of the series, wore glasses, then I believe during his time in jail/post jail he doesn't wear glasses anymore.
Then there was this scene where it was his first day in jail and he doesn't eat. He stares at his rice with a big spoon in it and then eventually his cellmate/friend person convinces him to eat. He then begins to shove big spoonfuls of rice into his mouth.
That's really all that I remember. I can't remember the name nor can I remember any characters. It's pretty old though.

This is a longshot, but gonna try it anyways. I don't remember the title or any of the actors. But I remember my cousin telling me that they made this series twice. Some of things I remember from it was:
One of the characters was a lady and she had ferrets with her to protect her.
The main character was a guy who had no Kung Fu skills, but somehow found a lady that was frozen. He kept kowtowing to her and eventually she broke out of the ice and taught him really powerful Kung Fu skills. I think he was able to absorb people's internal energy because he did it to one lady and she lost all her kung fu skills. She also had control of some kind of dragon and had some rival with a similar animal to fight the dragon. As you can tell it was in an ancient setting and it didn't involve anything about a dynasty or Emperor. The series I watched came out in the early 90s.

The main character was a guy who had no Kung Fu skills, but somehow found a lady that was frozen. He kept kowtowing to her and eventually she broke out of the ice and taught him really powerful Kung Fu skills. She also had control of some kind of dragon and had some rival with a similar animal to fight the dragon. As you can tell it was in an ancient setting and it didn't involve anything about a dynasty or Emperor. The series I watched came out in the early 90s.
They actually made it more than twice.
I think you're talking about Jin Yong's Tian Long Ba Bu, or Semi-Gods and Demi-demons. But the breaking out of the ice? The book has it that she was a statue, the pillow that he kowtowed on broke, and that's where the scrolls of Kung Fu were.

- there were three guys
- they found each other and eventually formed a team
- one guy could shoot dragons out of him palm?
-another guy could shoot i think beams form each fingertip
- and the last guy i think shoot some sort of chinese symbols?
whatever the case is.. what i remember is that it was this crazy chinese fighting drama, one guy was found in a cave i think. uhm i remember maybe the end of the drama they fight together against something... but it was a huge army. one guy shot his dragons the other dude used him beams and another guy shot his chinese symbols.. k i know this description is probably REAL unclear. but im sure whoever has seen this drama would definately remember.
I think you're also talking about Jin Yong's Tian Long Ba Bu, or Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. There were several versions of it.
Sousday wrote: I'm looking for the title of a wuxia drama... i can't remember much, just that the main guy is really strong and he has like 3 or 4 girls in love with him.
The female lead is a princess if i'm not wrong and she is not Chinese because she doesn't dress the same way as the other girls. She's is not really good at fighting and but she's good at using poison. (and i don't know why but when i'm thinking about her, the only thing i can see is a spider >.<)
The second girl was at first a good character, then she turned evil when she becomes the lead of her clan. She wears pretty purple clothes most of the time and she has really long nails.
I can only remember that there were a fight scene between the main guy and the second girl near the end (or maybe at the end...)
I know i don't have a lot of information but that's all i can remember.
Also, i think the year of production is between 1997 and 2003, not sure though
Hope that someone can help me,
Thanks ^_^
Are you sure it's not another version of Heavenly Sabers(there were 3, I think)? It sounds just like it -4 girls in love with him; one of them practices with spiders, the other one turned evil and fought; main character's Mongolian;

That sounds like the Seven Fairies legend.
I only know of three versions of this story though. I thought the first two are only a few years old though and the third is brand new.

If that doesn't work, maybe try Bao Lian Deng aka Lotus Lantern (but she was trapped in a mountain, and her son saved her). There's also Madame White Snake ( Two versions: Bai she zhuan or xin bai niang zi qi zhuan). She was a snake fairy and he a human.

Once he got out of that state, he became powerful or something.
Heavenly Saber and Dragon Sword. There were 3 versions.

okay this is really really old and well....i really really liked the song in this drama .......
Leon Lai was in it.....
he played a doctor
he played the flute (part of the song)
and he usually played it for this girl.....
the house he lived in was really nice and fancy it looked like a condo two floors apt looking...
sorry that's all i remember....nothing else =***(
i have no idea how the song went or if i would like it again but i remembered i would rewind and listen to that part over and over again when i was young.
i bought all his cd's when i was young (about 7th/8th grade) and well i can't read Chinese so i just bought all his cds but none of them ever had that ONE song on it....
if neone can find this song or where i can get it and the name of the drama/tv series i would be much much much many many very very thankful/happy/gratitude ....i mean i know none of that made sense but i would be EXTREMELY HAPPY......

The drama you're looking for is "The Legendary Ranger" (原振侠) with Leon, Michelle Reis, Athena Chu and Faye Wong.
The song is "My Other Half" (我的另一半) and was only released as part of a compilation.

Yah, what happened to Yosuke Kubozuka. One of the first Japanese actors I can't get enough of. First seen him in the movie Ping Pong (his hair was kind of weird though) then SOS (he was the cool popular guy) and Long Love Letter (as the sensei). By the way where can Go the movie be found since many say that's one of his best movies. What happened though, why did he stop acting in jdoramas.

Well after the attempt of suicide he stopped receiving important roles. I think something like that has a huge impact on the Japanese . That's the only reason that can explain the lack of offerts.
The GO movie (which is his greatest indeed !) can be found @bt.avistaz. You need an account though. But that shouldn't be a problem.

The video's about a dancing parrot called Snowball, and a "Japanese celebrity" who goes to see if he really can dance!

I watched this drama in china with my cousins in 2004, it was so good and cute but i forgot to ask for the title T________T
It's always been a drama i've wanted to finish.
1. The plot - describe as much as you can, and be as specific as possible.
The main character is called 思tou i'm 95% sure (si tou or ci tou) and her family owns a cafe/bar type shop. Her parents are letting a guy live at their house but Si tou really dispises him. He's a former liu mang 流氓...he used to be involved with bad stuff but he likes si tou and has a good heart(smart&cute too 8D). Si tou wants to get into an art university, but she flunks the test (she used a pencil with ABCDE labeled on each side). The guy wanted to get into the same university as her so he applied to the same school but got in. Uh...I remember si tou was really bummed and she drank a lot so the guy carried her back to their house on his back for like a few kms.
She has another friend...A guy likes her and gave her a couple necklace (with two puzzle pieces) but she didn't like him back...
Ahhh thats all i remember of the plot. :<Basically>__<
9. Any other information that may be helpful.
Si tou has orangey poofy hair...kind of crimped
One of her friends has black hair in a braided bun in the back with two little braids sticking out at the side. example: /(facee)\ it kind of flips away from her face.
the actors and actresses were all good looking LOL
This drama aired when there were commercials about love at the aegean sea airing soon. I'm not sure what network...maybe CTS i'm really not sure. =__=
It is set in shanghai china.
Thats all the info i know....
please please help`~~~~~ i 'll love you so much.
i've been trying to find this drama but NO LUCK. D:
This is probably going to be my deathbed wish...find the name of this drama and finish watching. :<

There are two series I saw on either i-Channel or AZN TV somewhere between 2002 and 2005 that I haven't been able to find any information for on the internet. I didn't watch all of either and it's bothering me that I can't even find their names. My memory is pretty fuzzy on the details, but I'll try my best.
Series 1-
I think the title had something to do with the name of a monk who was a focus of the story. He may have been cast down from heaven for doing something mischievous, and he may have had something to do with monkeys. He had a gourd that he would always drink from, and he was filthy with messy hair (looked like a homeless person). I think he had something to do with an old Chinese folk tale?
The show also involved two couples who I think kept on being reincarnated until they were able to finally have happy endings.
I believe AZN advertised this show as "The King of Hell," but I can't find any information on a C-Drama by this title. Basically, the king of the underworld fell in love with a (married) woman and married her. The woman's husband kept on trying to get her back, and their child (son?) kept on dying and being reincarnated. I think it got to the point where I laughed when he(?) fell off a cliff because it was fairly ridiculous how many times he died (or at least tried to). Maybe he continually killed himself on purpose to see his parents?
There was a man who would write down the number of years people would live, a torture room full of pretty much nothing but ice, and a guy with a horse head.
Sorry that I can't remember anything else..
Post by Puppet Princess » Aug 31st, '08, 03:50
The first sounds like the guy is the monkey king, the show is probably Journey to the West.

I found this show because of the theme song (a cover of "All The Things She Said" - t.A.T.u.), but I have no idea what it is. It looks like a Tokusatsu, though I don't know what the term would be in Chinese. I've only ever watch J-Dramas. Hopefully someone can help identify this and if it's good, I'll check it out. Here's the link to the opening.

It's Tian Shi Chuan Shuo 天石传说. It aired in 2005. It's SciFi fused with a little bit of wuxia elements.

Actually i think Matsuda Shota is doing pretty well now after the fame of HYD he's got Liar Game and Jotei and an upcoming ancient serial his roles are bigger and important, whereas i think Abe Tsuyoshi (Akira) isn't getting as much offers or lucrative offers as Matsuda although i do know he's filming something in TW? but i don't know how big that role is, and maybe i'm just clued up but he hasn't had many offers.
I think Ikuta Toma doesn't pull much audience in apart from Hana Kimi although i think that's mainly because of Oguri Shun rather than him. Maou isn't getting high ratings. =/
Thanks a lot! Too bad I can't find it subbed. Any recommendations for some subbed Wuxia shows? I have a love for fight scenes. Heh.
Scifi and horror shows are rare and the few that exist are unknown for some reason and as a result never subbed. I mean, this show doesn't even have a wiki page. It makes me sad.

This is a drama that I saw on CCENT (CCTV) just recently. I don't know what the chinese name is but it is about basketball and the main character's name in the drama is Gao Fei. That main character works in a Basketball cafe and has a co-worker who is teaching him basketball starting near the beginning of the drama. He first starts playing in a game for this really good player who has two teams fighting over him and he thinks that he really wants to play and there is also a girl who starts one of those teams and is the daughter of one of the judges of the basketball board or something. I'm not sure about some stuff but could you find out what it is called in both chinese and english?

About a very old wuxia drama.
Post by XTC1212 » Sep 8th, '08, 00:24
When I was little (roughly in the 1990s), I watched this wuxia drama that I really want to watch again but can't find the name of it.
The beginning involves two twins who are born from the parents of renowned martial artists that had something to do with being checker themed (black and white) but they had an evil rival come on the day that the twins were born to kill them (the parents). The twins were raised separately and one was raised on the streets while the other one was raised in a nice home. They meet later accidentally and decide to join forces to avenge their parents. A distinguishing characteristic of this seemingly generic story is that the twins each have heroines who accompany them. The twin who was raised on the street actually is able to have 4 of them while the one who was more well mannered had one but she is the descendant of a really powerful wuxia master who ends up teaching that twin some powerful martial arts. In the end the twin who was raised on the streets actually marries or takes as his girlfriend/wife all four of the girls. This is the most I can remember and hopefully someone can help me out. Thanks.

I've been searching for this ancient historical drama for a while but am not able to find any decent leads.
All I can remember from the series was this one scene where the protagonist (I think it was the MC, not entirely sure) and his army was confronted by the opposing force and their leader. After the discussion was concluded, the opposing force left, leaving their backs defenseless. And suddenly out of no where, an assassin's arrow flies by behind the whole scene and hits the opposing force's leader and kills him. Everyone thought that it was the protagonist who did it when really, someone was trying to frame him. His ex-lover (I think) thought it was an act of jealousy or something like that and hated him for it.
That's all I can remember. Oh and I *THINK* the actor playing the protagonist was Louise Koo. Again, not entirely sure.

I'm looking for a pretty old martial arts drama. I saw it when i was young, and I don't remember much, but the main character wanted to learn martial arts but was prohibited, and tried to learn it anyways. Then, somehow he had his arm chopped off, and was trained by a girl who threw needles or something, and a giant bird/owl type thing who made him try to use this really heavy sword. and i think there's a part where he tries to sleep on just a rope or something.

The show I'm looking for aired on 星空卫视 (STAR channel, i think), in the 缘分剧场, 'fate drama session' (?) earlier this year, somewhere between april and august, i think. o.O I have no idea what the name of the show is.
I only saw about one or two eps and can't remember any of the names, but what I gathered about the plot is:
The protaganist is a blind, 18 yrs old (?) girl. She walks with a walking stick thing, but gets a guide dog. The guy of the show is a guy that knows the guide dog and was the trainer of him. He meets the girl and falls in love with her, following her around to make sure she's safe, helping and protecting her without her knowledge. They meet later on, and I'm pretty sure a romantic relationship begins.
Her family is complicated. Her parents are divorced, and she has a stepdad. Her real father is a travelling photographer and chose his career over staying with his family 18 years ago. The girl lives with her mum, stepdad and stepsister (younger). They are all a happy family, I think...the girl calls both of them 'dad'. Birth dad loves her very much. Her stepdad also loves her, and is trying to find a cure for her blindness(?). Stepsister is a little jealous of the girl, who gets more attention (?) but is content with having her dad.
1) I'm pretty sure it was made after Oct. 2006, because there is a version of the song 闹闹 playing during a section of the show. This song is from 星苹果乐园, Legend of the Star Apple. (?)
2) I think it was set in Taiwan. But I think some or the actors, or most, were from mainland, judging from their accents.
3) Modern show, set presently/in this decade
4) It has more of a 'real life' type of feel, music isn't playing at every moment and it isn't soap opera style.
Little scenes from the show:
1) He hails a taxi for her, because none of them are stopping, but she doesn't know (because she's blind).
2) They go ice-skating/rollerblading, one of the 'sweet scenes' that's in the opening/ending credits.
REALLY sorry for going on...and on... but I really like this show and would like to find and watch it!

Unknown actress - need help identifying
Post by akinara » Oct 19th, '08, 09:09
I was in Florence on vacation a couple of weeks ago. When strolling up to the Palazzo Pitti I noticed a film crew at the bottom of the courtyard. Looking closer I realized they were japanese and accordingly crazy.
Trailing the actual shot were some other members of the crew, so I stopped to chat with them. A girl in Sherlock Holmes costume (a co-host?) told me the name of the show-to-be, but I've managed to forget it. I did, however, get to snap a shot of her. So, in order to help me find out the name of this show, is there anyone who could identify this girl?

I like Mizukawa Asami
She plays a lot of small-and-almost-unnoticed roles in dramas such as: Pride, Detective Conan: Challenge Letter to Kudo Shinichi, and bigger roles at nodame Cantabile and Last Friends. But she's kinda eye catching. I love her in Nodame Cantabile. Looks like she was in some movies too.
Name: 水川あさみ
Name (romaji): Mizukawa Asami
Real name: 水川啓子 / Mizukawa Keiko
Birthdate: 1983-Jul-24
Birthplace: Osaka, Japan
Star sign: Leo
Ahh.. and one more.. the little girl plays as Sakurai Ann in Oh! My Girl! Who is she..? Anybody can tell me? She also played in Yamada Taro Monogatari as one of Taro's sister. She's very cute..
Best Drama so Far:

yes, i totally agree with Mizukawa Asami...i think she's really unique. i like her voice and her sort of cool appearance (doesn't try to look kawaii like many actresses) but too bad that most of what she's done so far are supporting roles. she finally got the lead this season in yume wo kanaeru zou, but it's late-night!! hopefully next time she can play a lead in the "golden" 8-9pm slot...
i'm nominating tabe mikako!
http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Tabe_Mikako
i think she's really cutel but naturally cute (not like big huge eyes cute), and i really liked her in Hinokio (movie) that she did in 2005 or so. but i feel like she doesn't really get as much attention as she might deserve...i respect her because she doesn't really conform to the standards (or stereotypes) of a japanese actress (being really really cute, being skinny, whatever)

The Jonathan Saunders Autumn/Winter 2013 collection displays an assortment of colors that bleed into one another. The British designer has brought these dripping looks to the fashion fore at the London Collections: Men event, the current site of England's top in-season looks.
Sensible trousers, outerwear and suit pieces were mixed with this Autumn/Winter 2013's line of vibrant tops. A large chunk of these tops borrowed from popular ombre motifs as chromatic pinks and blues flowed into one another in a cascading manner. The way in which the clothing slightly unraveled points to Saunders' hold over the industry. While this look has the ability to be overwhelming, he has released it with a sense of practicality that is actually quite relaxed.

SoundCloud Safe For Now After $170 Million Rescue Investment
Kerry Trainor has replaced Alex Ljung as CEO of the streaming music company.
By Ben Dandridge-Lemco
A post shared by SoundCloud (@soundcloud) on Mar 5, 2017 at 2:14pm PST
SoundCloud has secured a "significant investment" from two different companies, allowing the music streaming platform to continue operations, SoundCloud said in a statement on Friday. The news follows reports that SoundCloud's future hung in the balance and would be determined by a vote from shareholders on a new investment plan.
The two companies backing the new round of investment are The Raine Group, an international merchant bank, and Temasek, a Singapore-based investment company. "The investment will ensure a strong, independent future for SoundCloud, funding deeper development and marketing of its core tools used by millions of audio creators," the statement reads.
Under the new investment plan former CEO and founder Alex Ljung has stepped down and will now serve as chairman of the board. Kerry Trainor, the former CEO of Vimeo will replace Ljung.
In July, SoundCloud laid off 40 percent of its employees and closed offices in San Francisco and London. The company was reportedly cutting costs to continue operating and was in danger of going under before the end of the quarter, according to internal communications obtained by TechCrunch.
The investment plan secures $170 million in funds for the company, which is now valued at $150 million. Last year, an investment round had placed the company's value around $700 million.
A representative for SoundCloud was not immediately available for comment.

The secret of Len's success was simple, first desire, then dedication followed by a great deal of hard work, training always the natural way for a lasting and award winning physique. Born February 3rd, 1935 in Gilingham Kent. Len first took up with the weights to supplement his off-season training for cycling. He told me he used to do cycle time trials over 10, 25 and 50 miles in his teenage years. Len then showed great promise as a racing cyclist and it's interesting to note, many other top bodybuilders, pre the use of weights, had a foundation of cycling which helped build up some great lower legs and overall fitness. This was the pre rock and roll days, of national service (for Len around 1952/53) and Len was called up at the tender age of 18, going into the RAF, then weighing just 128 lbs.
Photo: Len Sell striking a pose.
Once he received his posting in Germany Len first started weight training, mainly in an attempt to increase his bodyweight, using either home made or makeshift equipment. Servicemen were lucky indeed to find even a basic barbell in most military gyms in those days.
Eventually Len Sell was indeed to become famous worldwide featured in all contemporary muscle magazines Health and Strength, Iron Man, Strength and Health USA and even Joe Weider's Muscle Power magazine and today he still, with the help of his second wife runs a superb gym and health studio offering weight control dietary advice and sports training.
His first experience of competition was in the 1954 Mr. Essex contest and then, the 1955 Mr. Britain, taking a respectable 3rd place with his physique improving by leaps and bounds, from a shape that would be recognized later as one of the world's most symmetrical physiques. Always an outdoor man, Len had the added bonus of a healthy and fit looking body with a fine tanned skin, all aided by Len's love of all round pursuits of swimming, cycling, tumbling and hand-balancing.
Photo: Len Sell performing double bicep.
By 1956, Len had won various other muscle titles, from Mr. Metropolis at the Royal Albert Hall, to Mr. London awards and was runner up to Henry Downs, another great British bodybuilder, in the Britain final, the same year he entered the NABBA Mr. Universe contest, taking second place in Class 3 amateur. Right form those early days, Len used very heavy training poundages, influenced no doubt by Reub Martin, with workouts consisting of a wide variety of exercises, including gymnastics, chins and dips.
Press Behind Neck: 4 X 8 reps using 180 lbs.
Bench Press: 5 sets various reps using up to 400 lbs.
The year of 1957 was one of great triumph with Len first winning his area contest, then going on to take the laurels on October 19th with Class 3 winner Amateur Mr. Universe at just 22 years of age. He was also victorious at the Mr. Britain on March 29th. Despite his heavy muscularity not seen on a British bodybuilder since Reg Park or John Lees, Len had great all over muscular definition including fine abs, In fact his whole physique was so outstanding for a man of just medium height of 5ft 6 ins and with power to match his muscles. By now in the mid 50's, Len could squat and bench press 420 lbs plus, and dumbbell bench press, a lift at which he excelled, press two 200 lbs dumbbells on bench, something I witness personally. He would do dips with an added 120 lbs around his waist, triceps press 220 lbs, overhead press 360 lbs and repetition dumbbell pressed 2 x 120 lbs. He changed his programmes often, especially before a contest, using the split system if required.
Meanwhile in the same period, Len won Mr. TV Adonis, Mr. Soho, and Mr. Metropolis. Bodybuilding history certainly proved Leo Stern right in his judgment as Len Sell, at the London Palladium in front of witnesses such as Paul Getty, the world's richest man at the time and also a muscle fan, went on to take the 1959 Amateur Mr. Universe on September 26th aged 24 and a kiss form Jane Mansfield. Also on the same routine, was the American Bruce Randall who had made an amazing transformation, losing over 200 lbs. bodyweight to win the pro Mr. Universe title, but that's another story. Because of his now ever growing popularity, giving exhibitions at shows, and running his own gym, Len, having collected just about all useful amateur wards turned professional and his obvious and natural ambition was to win the Pro Universe title and take it he did, just three years later in 1962 at NABBA's 13th Universe show at Victoria Palace London.
To achieve this pinnacle in his career, Len had to take on a dozen or so top muscle professionals including four great names from the USA. These competitors included; earlier foe Earl Clark, Sam Martin, Ray Routledge and the Iron Guru himself, complete with golden tan from California and reputation, Vince Gironda. Others in various line ups included Bill Stevens, Reub Martin, whose shoulders were the widest on the muscle scene, and the friendly American Joe Abbenda, who won the Amateur crown, with our Len taking top title of overall professional Mr. Universe just beating six foot Ray Routledge form USA. Vince came in second place in Class 2 professionals, a good showing and popular win for a guy than aged 45 years.
Photo: Len Sell flexing on stage.
A popular cover man of many muscle magazine, author Colin Sheard writing in Health and Strength back in 1962 said of Len Sell, "He had a cheerful, winning disposition with a modest unaffected, sunny personality, "Such praise is enough to make anyone blush but Len was indeed a popular guy and even during the elation of his winning the Universe, he still found the time to thank his earlier mentor Reub Martin for his guidance and sensible training advice.
The champion was in much demand for posing and guest spots throughout the country, being well received and highly acclaimed for his physique, power and personality. Inspired himself by Reg Park in his early days. Reg invited Len over to South Africa to do a posing tour in 1963 and this proved to be a highly successful tour indeed. ersonality. Inspired himself by Reg Park in his early days. Reg invited Len over to South Africa to do a posing tour in 1963 and this proved to be a highly successful tour indeed.
Continuing to be featured in contemporary muscle journals both on the covers and in the art pages, throughout the '50's and 60's, Len's physique 20 years later, (March 1982) still looked as good as ever. He opened his East London Walthamstow gym back in 1963 and now has a full membership of many hundreds. Previous members of Len's gym included Roy Duval, Mr. Universe World Champion Ian Dowe, and Reg Park, Bill Pearl and even Arnold, have all paid visits to Len's gym and worked out with the weights.
Len still loves his gym and still gets a buzz when training. When asked his opinion of steroids and some modern training habits, Len said, "The original concept of bodybuilding was to improve strength and size, but above all to be, and look healthy. I think today's bodybuilders are at a fantastic level and good luck to them, but I personally prefer the less vascular look of previous decades.
Len has two daughters Belinda and former SE Britain winner, who now lives in Australia, and Donna, who resides in sunny California, plus Len's son, Leo a six footer, who also trains when able. Len has been married to his second wife for coming up to 25 years. Their silver wedding anniversary due on 24th August 1999. Still very active, Len keeps fit by training three times a week, plus plays plenty of golf, and with wife Val's help, continues to run his gym and remains a credit to true bodybuilding.
Len's training consisted then of the following typical routine, combined of course with plenty of rest and paying great attention to diet.
Front squats: 6 x 5 reps increasing poundages form 280 lbs to 300 lbs.
Standing Triceps Stretch: with barbell, 6 x 6 reps using up to 230 lbs.
Incline Dumbbell Curls 6 x 6 using 140 to 160 lbs.
Strict Barbell Curls: narrow grip, 6 x 6 with 140 to 160 lbs.
Two Hands Dumbbell Press: using dumbbells pyramid fashion working up from 85 to 105 lbs dumbbells.
Press Behind Neck: 5 x 6 using 180 to 200 lbs.
Abdominals: done very day for the last six weeks pre-contest for high reps. Abdominals: done very day for the last six weeks pre-contest for high reps. Plus include sit-ups and leg raises.

Biografia ed opere
Le scarse fonti documentarie non consentono di individuare con esattezza le origini del pittore; si sa invece che fu titolare di quella che fu verosimilmente la più feconda bottega presente a Novara tra gli ultimi decenni del XV secolo e i primi del successivo.

All'interno della bottega dei Cagnola operarono anche i suoi figli Giovanni, Francesco e Sperindio. Quest'ultimo divenne allievo e collaboratore di Gaudenzio Ferrari traghettando la produzione artistica della bottega verso forme espressive genuinamente rinascimentali. Al contrario, Giovanni e Francesco si mossero costantemente, anche se con minor talento, nella scia stretta degli insegnamenti paterni.

La produzione artistica di Tommaso e dei suoi due figli, Giovanni e Francesco, si realizzò soprattutto in opere a fresco di soggetto religioso, apprezzate da una vasta committenza nel novarese, nel territorio ossolano, arrivando sino alla Valsesia. La loro attività si espresse essenzialmente in antiche chiese romaniche ed oratori di campagna, popolando tali edifici di immagini di santi e di scene evangeliche di gusto popolare, che dovevano corrispondere a speciali devozioni dei committenti, ovvero alla funzione didattica che la chiesa affidava ai cicli pittorici(come Biblia pauperorum).

Nel dicembre del 1490 venne chiamato, insieme ai suoi figli, a Milano presso la corte degli Sforza per preparare gli allestimenti scenici per le contemporanee feste nuziali di Beatrice d'Este con Ludovico il Moro e di Anna Sforza con Alfonso d'Este. In quell'occasione conobbe Bernardino Butinone e Bernardo Zenale, incaricati di dirigere la folta schiera di artisti convocati a corte, senza peraltro che l'incontro con i due importanti pittori milanesi lasciasse traccia nel suo linguaggio tardogotico.

Difficile è spesso distinguere i contributi di Tommaso rispetto a quello del figlio Giovanni (di cui poco si conosce) e di Francesco, che fu peraltro pittore molto fecondo.

Il loro linguaggio, che si attarda vistosamente su forme tardo gotiche, si connota per alcune particolarità stilistiche che equivalgono ad una sorta di marchio di fabbrica. A. A. Boratto le specifica in questi termini:

Un catalogo delle opere che si possono assegnare con sicurezza a Tommaso comprende affreschi presenti nei seguenti edifici religiosi:
 Chiesa di Santa Maria a Garbagna Novarese, San Francesco che presenta l'offerente alla Madonna in trono con Bambino e due angeli musicanti, opera firmata, 1481
 Oratorio della Madonna della Gelata a Soriso, Madonna col Bambino, opera firmata, 1490
 Chiesa di San Martino a Bolzano Novarese, Compianto sul Cristo Morto, San Martino e il povero, opere firmate, databili verso la fine del XV – inizio del XVI secolo
 Abbazia di San Nazzaro della Costa presso Novara, Ritratto del Beato Tommaso Caccia, di Novara , opera firmata

Sono inoltre attribuiti a Tommaso un Ritratto di nobiluomo ed una Madonna in trono con il Bambino, affreschi datati 1502, provenienti da una casa di Sogno – frazione di Villadossola – ora staccati e conservati al Sacro Monte di Domodossola.

Altre opere della sua bottega nelle quali è stata individuata la sua mano sono:
 Oratorio della Madonna del Latte a Gionzana, frazione di Novara: affreschi sulle pareti di destra e di sinistra, tra essi una Madonna col Bambino e San Giuseppe;
 Pieve di San Giovanni a Vespolate;
 Pieve di San Pietro a Casalvolone: Cristo Pantocratore,Apostoli con San Pietro in trono , Madonna della Misericordia
 Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie (o Oratorio dei Palazzi) a Vicolungo: Madonna della Misericordia

Oltre alle tante opere a fresco, Tommaso fu anche impegnato nella realizzazione di dipinti su tavola. È documentato come autore, assieme al figlio Sperindio, di due ancone realizzate nel 1507 e nel 1509 per la confraternita dei Disciplini di Gattinara, opere andate perdute. Nessuna altra tavola gli è attribuibile con certezza.

This week, I'm telling how the show is going to be changing for 2020!
"How The Show Is Changing For 2020" - EP #26
Hey guys, what's going on? It's Mike. Sorry this episode is so late. It has been a busy week for me. We're going to work at a TV station a super bowl weekend. Managed we for we forgot to put an episode up. So I want to let you guys know what's going to be going on with the future of the show here into two thousand and twenty. No, it's not going away. It's still going to be going we've got new guest lined up here for the first few shows. Is going to be a lot of fun. As you guys know from the last episode, I got a brand new toy. I got a roadcast or pro mixing board specifically for this show and I'm going to have a lot of fun with this thing. I think it's going to be a great way to make the show even better. We're planning on doing incorporating a video element of sorts into this show for some clips to put online, and also want to let you know what's going to go on with all the other other shows you do on the feed now, as I mentioned it in an earlier episode with Travis Diffenderfer, so Mike's mind is going to be going away. I'm just I don't...
...feel comfortable doing that show anymore and I kind of just want to move past it and kind of keep the show branded on certain kinds of content. Also, Mike's Mike talks movies, is going to be moving to a video platform now. Those video clips are going to be done. They're going a little five to seven minute movie reviews and they're going to go up on both the Basement Lounge facebook page and the Basement Lounge Youtube channel, which is currently up and only has the one video on it, which is the video of me unboxing the roadcaster pro. So that's up there right now. So that's where Mike talks movies is going to live. The monthly movie melt down with me and Travis is going to continue to exist where it does on the podcast, on the podcast channel once a month, and then the video portion of the basement lounge is going to be me setting up brand new cameras here in the studio and getting actual, like little video clips of me having the interviews here in the studio. I'm getting the studio cleaned up and kind of remodel a little bit and it's going to be a little bit more intimate and have a...
...lot more fun. Also the nature of the show, the shows themselves are going to change in that it's going to be a lot less question and answer interview and a lot more just conversation. I'm going to be bringing in guests talk about specific topics and we're going to converse about those topics kind of like you would do with your friends at a bar. You Go, you grab a table, something comes up in conversation and you talk about the conversation is still going to be very free flow, very organic. It's just we're going to be coming in with an idea of what we're going to be talking about ahead of time and we're going to go from there and think it's going to be a lot of fun. It's gonna be a great new way to approach the show and really make it feel like a much more intimate conversation style of show and I'm really looking forward to doing that. I think it's going to be a lot of fun. So make sure you guys are following the show on social media. That's at Basement Lounge pod on Instagram, at tbl underscore pod on twitter, follow the show on Facebook, facebookcom backslash, Basement Lounge pod and, of course, go to our website, which is basement lounge...
...podcom, get more information there, and then, once we get things up and running, I'm going to I'm in the process of revamping the Patreon all together. Right now. It's still going to stage the one dollar tier, but you guys are going to get acts to a lot more cool stuff from there as well, and I'm looking forward to this. And then I'm also in the process of planning a basement lounge live show and, as you guys know, I'm also doing a new show with Sinna skape media called mixtape radio, and we're going to see some crossover with that as well. It's going to be a lot of fun. And then you guys are really going to enjoy what we're doing here in two thousand and twenty. So our first show back will be at the end of this week. That will be a Friday, February seventh, I believe, is the day. Am I wrong? Am I completely wrong? February, February seventh? Yeah, Friday February seventh is when we're going to have our first show back. Our guests is going to be? It's going to be Don Owens, Aka Don Mega, from Red Dragon Radio and am I on the air podcast and we're going to have a lot of fun with him talking about our Oscar predictions and just seeing where...
...things go. We've also got Savannah web coming back to the show. You guys remember her from Mike the Mike talks funny days. We're going to have dusty harvey on again at one point. We got a lot of cool guests coming up, guys, so make sure you stick around and we'll see you guys here in a few days with the brand new full first episode of the New Year for the Basement Lounge.

This is the first UK edition of Tony Hillerman's eighth novel, Skinwalkers, which was published in 1988 by Michael Joseph LTD in London, England.
This is a hardcover book with dust jacket. The cover was illustrated by Neil Breedon. This cover mimics the Sphere Books Ltd covers and follows the same format: a multimedia collage, over a rough canvas base, that incorporates folk art elements and and items that indicate plot elements. In this case, there is a sandpainting featuring a yei figure flanked by flowers. These elements are framed by blue and white coarse string embroidery, with a secondary framing device of a green, blue, and white colored geometric diamond pattern. A smattering of blood and feathers, neither of which manifest in the novel, provide the finishing touches.
On the back, on a goldenrod background, a drawing of the figure from the front cover sits atop a quote from Jonathan Kellerman. Three other quotes are below, and the bar code is at the bottom right corner.
The jacket contains both front and back fold-outs. The front fold-out contains a brief synopsis of the novel and the back fold-out contains a brief biography of Tony Hillerman.
Binding: Full bound red cloth boards. Author name, book title, and publisher's imprint in gold on spine.

The entry door from the garage to the laundry room. Now we can have the house locked up.
Basement stairs are done. These stairs will be open to the great room area, to make it part of the house. But until the downstairs is finished, then there will be a door at the bottom of the stairs.
More duct work from the furnace is done. They said they are about 80% done with their work.
First sight of seeing someone use the electricity in the house! There is one outlet so far, just this one.
The issue of the fireplace venting is fixed and the truss is ready for the fireplace people to come back out and finish the venting.
Garage floor is cured and looks great!
Roofers finished the top ridge vent and also finished up these plumbing waste flashings that my plumber couldn't get to.
The rest of the shingles are brought down to the roof level so now Tony's brother Dan can get to them when they pick them up for returning to Chelsea Lumber for credit.
Here is the end of our driveway, where it meets the road. Im actually standing at the area where the road meets the driveway.
Locked up and ready for key access only!
