    Word up M_I

     

    And for those who don't know Serato DOES NOT mix for you.

     

    You still actually play the records on real decks. SO it takes skills

     

    even if you use the tempo tap shit. You can't get by on that alone.

     

    So the white kid shit goes out the window.

     

    You basically trade the crates for a nice Laptop and small black box.

     

     

    well.. there is a vinyl emulator and then there is the cheat function (dont know what its called.. help me out).. it takes no skill to auto bpm your songs and drop the needle directly on a cue point without looking and drop it in loop. if you are using it as if you were spinning vinyl, then yes, it takes skill. there is no tell-tale groove on the record looking up at you telling you where the break is.

     

    but word.. if i had the loot, id be all over it.. i use two decks and a i have a cdj for my mp3s... would get serato if i didnt spend so much loot on vinyl.

     

    peace seeking

    Bistro Montage on the Southeast side under the Morrison bridge. Best mac & cheese you'll ever have.

     

    Mt. Tabor (not as much of a Mt. as you'd think) will give you a good view of all the city.

     

    Rose Garden in Washington Park in the west hills of downtown.

     

    If you have a car you could drive out to Council Crest

     

    Hood River.

     

    The Pacific coast is about an hour west of downtown and can be cool. Cannon Beach is nice if you go during the week and skip all the hoity-toity travelers.

     

    Shopping... dude... everywhere.

     

    Cannon Beach.. And Manzanita too. I have not lived in Portland since 2000.. but Portland has got to be my favorite place in America.

     

    Check out the Saturday Market too... and mind the hippies.

  5. Can we say, WHAT THE FUCK?!?!? A bitch can file for support even if its not your kid.. and it stands up in court???

     

    FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida (CNN) -- Francisco Rodriguez owes more than $10,000 in back child support payments in a paternity case involving a 15-year-old girl who, according to DNA results and the girl's mother, is not his daughter.

     

    Francisco Rodriguez is fighting for leniency in his paternity case. "It's not right. I'm not the father, " he said.

     

    Rodriguez, who is married with two daughters and a son from his wife's previous marriage, is fighting for leniency. "It's not right. I'm not the father, " he said at a recent court hearing.

    He says he knew nothing about the other girl until paperwork showed up about four years ago saying he was the father.

     

    He now has DNA results that show the 15-year-old girl wasn't fathered by him. He even has an affidavit from the girl's mother -- a former girlfriend from 1990 -- saying he's "not the father" and asking that Rodriguez no longer be required to pay child support.

     

    Yet the state of Florida is continuing to push him to pay $305 a month to support the girl, as well as the more than $10,000 already owed. He spent a night in jail because of his delinquent payments.

     

    Why is he in such a bind?

     

    He missed the deadline to legally contest paternity. That's because, he says, the paperwork didn't reach him until after the deadline had passed.

     

    "It's like you're drowning every day," says Rodriguez, a massage therapist.

     

    Rodriguez's case highlights the legal dilemma states face over how to handle paternity cases. More than a third of children born in the United States are born to unmarried parents, according to the National Center for Health Statistics.

     

    But paternity laws vary from state to state, according to the Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP), a nonprofit organization that works to improve the lives of low-income families.

     

    Some states have detailed laws to challenge paternity within deadlines, while others offer little guidance. In most cases, men have 60 days to challenge paternity, according to CLASP.

    After that, it can be "challenged only on the basis of fraud, duress or material mistake of fact," CLASP said last year in an update to a report on paternity law.

     

    "There are no perfect answers," says Susan Paikin of the Center for Support of Families in Delaware. "Deadlines are imposed so that when families are broken -- the legal process is handled quickly."

     

    She says state legislatures and courts struggle with paternity cases, trying to strike the proper balance between children's rights and adults' rights, always keeping in mind any potential harm to the child.

     

    "This is a struggle. It's not something easy for courts or legislatures," she says.

     

    Paikin says it's especially tricky in cases where a father has raised a child thinking it was his, only to learn years later the child had a different father.

     

    "Most men who have a relationship with their child don't think of their child in terms of DNA," she said. "The real issue in most of these cases is anger and money."

     

    Tampa Police officer Michael Anderson understands that sentiment. He paid child support for more than 12 years -- a total outlay he says amounted to more than $80,000. But a DNA test after he and his wife divorced showed the daughter he thought was his was somebody else's.

     

    He then separated himself and his feelings from the child.

    "I stopped having a relationship with the girl right from the beginning, when I found out," he said. "It was hard, but I had to do it."

     

    A Tampa court earlier this year disestablished him as father and relieved him of his future child support payments. But by law, he is unable to get back the $80,000 he already paid.

    Carnell Smith, who founded a group called U.S. Citizens Against Paternity Fraud, wants mandatory DNA tests when a child is born to avoid legal wrangling and anguish.

     

    "Unfortunately, today it's not a crime for someone to lie about which man is the father," Smith said. "The mother doesn't have to return the money and rarely, if ever, is she prosecuted for perjury, for fraud."

     

    Rodriguez's odyssey began in 1990, when he says at age 16 he had a four- to five-month relationship with a woman CNN is not identifying. He says when the relationship ended, he did not hear from her again until child support papers arrived at his home in 2003.

     

    "My wife and I both had a confused look, and we're wondering, 'Where is the DNA test?' " he says.

     

    But it was long past Florida's deadline to contest paternity. A court had already named him the father three years before when he did not respond to notices to appear, notices he says he never received because he had moved a lot.

     

    He was now on the hook for monthly child support, as well as $10,623 in back child support.

     

    He eventually paid for DNA testing. The test showed he was not the father.

     

    A judge has now ordered a court-sanctioned DNA test for Rodriguez and the 15-year-old girl. Rodriguez has taken that test; the girl and her mother did not show up for their appointment to submit to DNA testing and it's unclear if the girl has complied.

     

    CNN has repeatedly tried to contact the mother, but has been unable to reach her.

  6. Columbus seemed pretty cool. Didnt do much in Cinci tho.. except watch a friend get arrested on some "we know you must be holding something, but feel free to come into our club, then watch as three of our bouncers grab you and pull you out of the side door, so our cop friend can turn you inside out, then load you into the car and take you to jail" type steez.

     

    fuck that place.

  7. um.. his parents were/are jewish.. they go shvitzing with the "Big Jew" of the temple, eh mar??? but yes, he went on tour and became a hippie/jew/rasta .. the end.

  8. What!?!?!???!?!!!

     

    People are fucking crazy. You'd have to be the biggest idiot on earth to pay more than retail for something you could walk into a store and buy. Who the fuck are these fools preying on? Anyone smart enough to operate an iPhone surely wouldn't pay more than retail for one.

     

    there are only 3 million phones for the released.. they will sell out, and few smart people will make a lot of loot of off many dumb people. its how we do.

     

    i got a vinyl im sitting on.. going to make over 10 times what i paid for it. god bless america.

  9. honestly, more often than not rich people are fairly unhappy and disfunctional. the wealthiest people i knew (take all of the wealthy people you know, put them together and they still wont be as rich as these people...it was retarded) were such miserable human beings i actually started feeling bad for them, their children, even their friends. i guess if you dont like rich people you can take solace in the fact that they are driving their seven series bmw back to their disfunctional home life after working 14 hours at the office.

     

    my observation - only get rich after you have everything else you want. get it backwards and youll most likely will never find the happiness you want (unless your head is completely up your own ass).

     

    --------

     

    WHATS THE POINT OF BEIN RICH IF YOU WORKIN 14 HOUR DAYS? I NEED TO BE RICH AND NOT BE WORKIN, SO I CAN SPEND MY MONEY ON ALCOHOL, DRUGS, AND CARS AND SHIT LIKE THAT.

     

     

    These two quotes are connected, except mero forgot travel.

  10. this about sums it up.. taken off a youtube comment..
