White porcelain is the classic on the laid table - it creates an elegant and calm basis that leaves plenty of room for your own creations and decorations. Read more
In physical terms, white is the sum of all colours - so white can be harmoniously combined with any other colour. But even table culture entirely in white has its appeal not only on festive occasions. What is special about FÜRSTENBERG: all dishes and objects have the same whiteness and can therefore be arranged together as desired. High-quality white porcelain from FÜRSTENBERG always brings an exclusive lightness and noble restraint into the interior.
The BLANC gourmet line combines the wishes and demands of top chefs Sven Elverfeld, Nils Henkel and Tim Raue in design, quality and functionality, which designer Mikaela Dörfel has created in an exclusive form. Different plate depths, large radii and different flag sizes give the white porcelain its special refinement and variety.
The pure white of porcelain not only gives the collection its name, but also serves professional chefs as well as passionate amateur chefs as a "canvas" on which they can arrange their dishes in style. The plate series with cloche, sauce boat and two gourmet spoons is available in a fully glazed and a partially frosted version. The unique design was awarded the iF product design award 2012 in gold, the German Design Award 2013 and the Design Plus 2013.
The gourmet line BLANC is just one of many excellent white porcelain series from FÜRSTENBERG, and the white TOUCHÉ cup series was awarded the red dot award: product design 2012.
AURÉOLE 2014 was honoured with the red dot "Honourable Mention" for particularly successful detailed solutions, and the OMNIA tableware developed jointly with the Viennese design studio EOOS bears the seal of the 2016 red dot award, while the Fluen tableware collection designed by Alfredo Häberli for the FÜRSTENBERG porcelain manufactory was awarded the German Design Award 2018. The regular awards honor FÜRSTENBERG's claim to combine centuries-old craftsmanship with modern design.

I installed a Verizon Range Extender about 2 1/2 years ago and when it works it is flawless, but it is quirky.
The concept behind the Range Extender is elegant and simple. If you find yourself in a cellphone dead zone but have broadband Internet access, just plug in a Range Extender, attach a Cat 5 cable to your network, put its GPS antenna in a south-facing window, and voila! Your cellphone traffic is routed through the broadband connection to the Verizon mother ship. The GPS sensor on the Range Extender provides your physical location to your cellphones to meet FCC requirements for 911 calls.
The Range Extender has four LEDs on the front: Power, GPS, Internet and SYS. When these LEDs all show blue, the Range Extender is up and running, awaiting your outbound calls and routing incoming calls to you.
The Range Extender list price of $250 is a bit steep given the device offloads Verizon's heavily loaded cell towers and using it adds billable cellphone minutes, both of which work in Verizon's favor. If you have several Verizon phones, you can probably negotiate a discount of about half.
[ REVIEWS: 2 tools that can kill dead spots ]
So where does the Range Extender concept break down? The obvious time is when your broadband link is out of service. Not much to do about that, except to wait for your ISP or your electric company to get back up and running.
But, if you are suddenly without cellphone service when Verizon's Internet-based cellphone system goes down, be prepared for long hours on the phone with Verizon techs to troubleshoot. First, they may try to lay the blame on your ISP. Next, they might tell you that your Range Extender is faulty and needs to be replaced. Once, after three days out of service and numerous calls to Verizon, our Range Extender magically started working again, and Verizon gave us full credit for a month of service on all our cellphones.
Another shortcoming has to do with cloudy and foggy weather, a common occurrence in my New England area, especially in the winter. A heavily overcast sky causes the device to lose the GPS satellite signal, the GPS LED goes red, and all cellphones stop working. Here in New England, that means the phone link could be out for a long time. The recovery procedure is to unplug and replug the Range Extender repeatedly until it finally gets a GPS signal, definitely hit or miss.
Unlike a cellphone, however, the Range Extender tends to stay in one place, so it could have been designed to get a GPS signal once, just after being plugged in. After that, it could keep the GPS coordinates in memory and never have to search for the GPS satellite until it is powered off/on again. A further refinement would be to put a "Sense GPS" button on the front, to be used only when the Range Extender gets moved to a new location. Of course, when a Range Extender is powered up for the very first time out of the box, it must find a GPS satellite to get its own coordinates.
The Range Extender is also a closed system. It does not respond to a network ping, so you have no idea what its IP address is. Worse yet, its IP address may duplicate that of a computer or network printer, causing network chaos. And, of course, it does not provide any Web browser access to its settings and status, so you have no idea what is going on except for the idiot-light LEDs on the front and a blinking Ethernet pulse on the back. This makes troubleshooting a virtual impossibility, and complicates matters when a Range Extender is several rooms away or on another floor.
Despite its shortcomings, the Verizon Range Extender solves the cellphone dead zone problem, and it is better than nothing at all. Most of the time. It is suitable for use in home offices and other small offices. But anyone with a network of, say, 10 or more computers to administer needs a far more robust Internet cellphone product.

Guggenheim Transforms to Explore Perception
It's not too often you see people lying down on the floor of a prestigious art museum. But the ground level of the Guggenheim is scattered with people as they stare up in awe at the star of American artist James Turrell's new exhibit.
It's called Aten Reign, and it combines LED technology with natural daylight to transform Frank Lloyd Wright's iconic central rotunda into a work of art. Janelle Zara writes for an art website, and says viewing the exhibit challenged her senses.
"I really got messed up!" she said. "I feel like i tripped over my own feet, because you go into three dimensions and then you jump back to two...your body kind of freaks out."
Zara says this is an exhibit visitors should definitely take their time with.
"The magic isn't always obvious immediately. You have to let your eyes unfocus, and you have to kind of let it...kind of put your expectations away."
The exhibit opens to the general public tomorrow, taking advantage of the summer solstice - the longest day of the year - to ensure there's plenty of daylight filling the space. The exhibit runs through September 25th.

Putting Two Leaders in Place
This story appears in the May 1997 issue of Entrepreneur. Subscribe »
Tne family business; two capable adult children in it. What's a parent to do when the time comes to retire?
That was the problem Marshall Paisner grappled with a few years ago when he thought about succession planning for ScrubaDub, a Boston auto wash chain he started in 1966. "Choosing one child over another is certain to hurt the one who has been passed over," he said to himself and others. "And they're both good at their jobs." Furthermore, he knew his sons, Bob and Dan, would ultimately have to live with the decision.
So he turned the problem over to them. "I told them they had a year to come to a decision they could live with on how to structure the company when I was no longer actively participating," Paisner says. "They had a sum of money to draw on if they needed outside counsel to help them."
"All of us business advisor-types figured Marshall was copping out because he didn't want to get one of his sons angry at him," recalls Paul Karofsky, executive director of Northeastern University's Center for Family Business in Dedham, Massachusetts. "But in the final analysis, his understanding of his children was better than ours. He realized they were going to have to work together, and whatever decision they arrived at they had to `own.' Indeed, if they couldn't make this decision, how could they be in business together?"
Co-leadership, often scorned as sure-fire failure, has developed a new cachet. In fact, a recent survey conducted by accounting and research firm Arthur Andersen shows that 42 percent of American family businesses are considering it (though a far lesser percentage institute it).
Dan Paisner, the younger Paisner brother, admits he pushed the co-leadership idea. "I didn't think the birthright for leadership automatically belonged to the first-born," he says, "especially since Bob and I were both competent and had operated as a team up until this point." He set out to prove his theory by presenting examples of companies successfully using co-leadership.
"We had always planned on working together as partners," says Bob, "but I have strong feelings about titles. Though [they are] not important to me, I think employees and vendors need to know who the anchors are."
The brothers sloshed through succession discussions. Several meetings were spent making certain they agreed on their vision for the future and the corporate culture and philosophy they wanted to perpetuate. Then they thrashed out the details of how co-leadership would work. Eventually, they agreed. They would have the same compensation and percentage of stock ownership, different titles (Bob is CEO; Dan is president) and responsibilities (Bob's are research and development and operations; Dan's are training, sales and marketing), a method of resolving disputes, a stock redemption agreement, and parameters surrounding their own children's entry into the business.
Bob and Dan Paisner were likely candidates for co-leading the company. They had a history of managing by consensus. But with siblings or cousins who lack that history, says Bonnie Brown, president of family business consulting firm Transition Dynamics Inc. in Eugene, Oregon, "it's essential to try some joint projects before deciding upon co-leadership."
Most Likely To Succeed
Teams of siblings or cousins "are more synergistic and can look at issues with a broader perspective and a wider range of skills than a single person can," says Brown. Still, the co-leadership option only works if the following are firmly in place:
- Inherent mutual trust and respect. Being family doesn't ensure you like each other or share values. Without these things, though, effective co-leadership can't exist.
- Divided responsibilities. It's not impossible for co-leaders to have overlapping or identical responsibilities, but clarity of roles makes the relationship easier. "We do different things," says Dan Paisner, "but I'm sure we could do each other's job if we had to."
- A board of advisors. "Co-leaders need an additional authority to whom they can go for support, counsel, an ear, and to help dilute emotions," suggests Karofsky.
- A way to resolve conflict. Many co-leaders agree that, unless they have strong objections, they will go along with the other's decisions in their respective areas of responsibility. If strong disagreement exists, the decision is re-evaluated. Suppose, however, even after re-evaluation the co-leaders disagree. A deadlock resolution has to be set up. A small portion of the Paisners' voting stock, for example, is held by a third party--currently, their father--who can break a stalemate. "After me, it will go to a mutually agreed-upon third person," Marshall says. The Paisners took conflict resolution one step further: They set up a stock redemption agreement. If one of the brothers is so unhappy with the decision that he wants out, he can be bought out in a way that will not disrupt the company's financial security.
- A formal structure for communication. "Got a minute?" communication is not good enough when two or more people are running the same ship. "Communication channels need to be formalized," says Karofsky. The leaders need to know that on Monday at 10 a.m. or Wednesday at 3 p.m., they have a meeting--and a commitment to that time that is as firm as a meeting with a customer.
Co-leadership isn't right for every family business, but it's an option to consider when a family has many competent, talented people with leadership capabilities.

After a short respite Saturday night at the Final Four in Arlington, Texas, Johnny Manziel is shifting his attention back to football.
Manziel will visit the Raiders Sunday night and Monday, the quarterback told NFL Media analyst Gil Brandt Sunday morning before getting on a plane to Oakland.
The Raiders, who hold the draft's fifth overall pick, traded for Matt Schaub last month and reportedly have "a massive crush" on former Fresno State QB Derek Carr, but it isn't stopping them from doing their due diligence on Manziel, a likely top-10 pick.
Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie has holes that need to be filled elsewhere -- wide receiver and offensive line leading among them -- in addition to the pressing need of finding a long-term answer at quarterback, so some project the club will wait to draft a signal-caller until the second round or later.
Head coach Dennis Allen said Schaub, 32, is not just a stopgap and could start for the next three or four seasons, but Schaub's restructured contract suggests the team is much more in wait-and-see mode than Allen's comments suggest. Schaub's new deal doesn't include any guaranteed money beyond the 2014 season -- if he fails to bounce back from a disappointing 2013 season, the Raiders could cut him after next season to clear the way for a prized draft pick without taking a hit.
That said, if Manziel is the player the Raiders covet as a potential replacement for Schaub, they have done a good job of sending the narrative in the opposite direction this offseason.
NFL Media analyst Daniel Jeremiah has Oakland drafting UCF quarterback Blake Bortles with the fifth pick, while fellow analysts Bucky Brooks and Charles Davis both have Auburn offensive tackle Greg Robinson going to the Raiders in their latest mock drafts.

PORTLAND, Ore. - Wesley Matthews made a 3-pointer to put Portland in front with 26.9 seconds left and the Trail Blazers hung on to beat the Miami Heat 92-90 Thursday night for their fourth straight win and ninth straight at the Rose Garden.
The Blazers held LeBron James to 15 points, snapping his 54-game streak with at least 20 points that dated back to last season.
Miami led by as many as 13 points but lost for the fifth time in eight games.
Nicolas Batum led the Blazers with 28 points, and LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 points and 15 rebounds. Matthews finished with 18 points.
Chris Bosh had 29 points for the Eastern Conference-leading Heat.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Paul George scored seven points in a 13-0 fourth-quarter run and finished with 24, leading Indiana past short-handed New York.
The Pacers have won 12 of 15, including a sweep of the other two Eastern Conference division leaders — Miami and the Knicks — this week.
New York was led by J.R. Smith with 25 points on a night they clearly missed Carmelo Anthony, who was suspended for Monday's postgame confrontation with Boston's Kevin Garnett. Without Anthony, the Knicks fell nine points below their previous season-low point total (85).
New York rallied from a 49-38 third-quarter deficit and started the fourth with a 60-58 lead.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — O.J. Mayo had 24 points and 10 rebounds, Vince Carter scored 23 points off the bench and Dallas rallied from 17 points down to beat Sacramento in overtime.
Shawn Marion added 19 points and 10 rebounds to help the Mavericks snap a four-game losing streak. Dallas, which had lost 10 of 11, finished its short road trip 1-2.
With the franchise's possible sale and relocation to Seattle on the minds of Kings fans, DeMarcus Cousins had 29 points and nine rebounds before getting ejected in overtime for elbowing Carter in the face. Tyreke Evans scored 20 points and Isaiah Thomas had 18 points for the Kings, who lost their third straight game.

Training . . . Stay or Pay?
It happens many times . . . a company invests time and money into training employees only to have them leave soon after the training is complete. Some industries and companies now have contractual agreements requiring employees to repay training costs to their employers if they separate from employment before a specified period. Congress has also passed legislation requiring continued service agreements from government employees who have received extensive training.

It's certainly not news that super PACs, especially those favoring Republican causes, have raised lot of money from wealthy contributors during this election cycle. But as a share of their massive wealth, the totals for most big-dollar donors amount to a mere pittance.
A study released Wednesday by Wealth-X provides some perspective on the political contributions of ultrawealthy Americans. The top ultrahigh-net-worth donors give on average less than a quarter percent of their wealth to political causes.
Wealth-X found that major donors to Republican causes gave an average of 4% of their wealth to charity and less than 1% to political causes.
In contrast, their Democratic counterparts gave on average more than 5% of their wealth to philanthropic causes and less than half a percent to political ones.
Entertainment industry moguls continue to be big supporters of the Democrats, Wealth-X noted in a statement.
The statement included a comparison of the contributions to super PACs by the top five Republican and top five Democratic donors, measured in relation to their net worth.
Top Republican super PAC Donors, by net worth and by percentage of net worth for political donations:
- Bobby Jack Perry, owner of Perry Homes, $520 million; 2.2%
- Rocco A. Ortenzio, health care entrepreneur, $88 million; 1.1%
- Harlan Rogers Crow, head of Crow Holdings, $310 million; 1%
- Foster Friess, head of Friess Associates, $520 million; 0.5%
- Jon Huntsman Sr., founder of Huntsman Corp. and Hunstman Gay Global Capital, $700 million; 0.3%
Top Democratic super PAC Donors:
- Bill Maher, talk show host, $40 million; 2.5%
- Stephen M. Silberstein, founder of Innovative Interfaces, $35 million; 1.4%
- Morgan Freeman, actor, $95 million; 1.1%
- Barbara A. Stiefel, political fundraiser and philanthropist, $120 million; 0.9%
- Frederick J. Eychaner, media entrepreneur, $500 million; 0.6%
"While no one disputes that large amounts of money have gone into the 2012 campaign season, when the donations are compared to the net worth of the UHNWIs, they are minor," Wealth-X President David Friedman said in the statement.

So I have a confession. I am a war gamer, through and through, but my favorite games are the city and realm-building games like Civilization. The challenge, of course, is that while there are a ton of great light board games whose themes trend in that direction, theres not one good tabletop game that plays in under two hours, mixes and matches the best of Carcassonne (build the map as you go), Seven Wonders (quick gameplay and development along many lines), Dominion (shared pool of assets to build from), and Eight Minute Empire (amazingly fast gameplay). To top it all off, I want all of that, and a halfway decent combat system that recognizes that terrain, technology, speed, and command actually matter.Yes, I want it all. And I want it now!CarcassonneHeres the thing, each one of these games brings something to the table that I really enjoy, but in the process of trying to find the perfect game, you end up with the never-ending headache of trying to balance granularity in the facets of the game that matter to you, with streamlined gameplay for those who less interested in that level of minutia.I love how Carcassonne builds the map as the game progresses. Theres a beautiful sort of randomness in the unfolding of a new field of play with every game. Ive played almost every set of tiles they make (Hunters & Gatherers, Discover, New World, The Castle) and they all fascinate me with their differentiation and challenge. Ive long thought that Carcassonne would be greatly improved with three small tweaks. First, some tiles trigger events, like immediate scoring or removal of certain pieces. This mechanic could be tied to seasonal changes, or some other mechanism to show the passing of time. Second, I think players should have a hand of 2-3 pieces to increase the choices available to them and allow for better planning of long-term strategy. And finally, I think each player should have a stable of 2-3 unique pieces that no one else has access to, an idea actually pioneered with an expansion to Hunters & Gatherers. These simple steps would bring that game closer to the idea of building a kingdom, and not just fighting over the pieces on a puzzle board.The building of the map within Carcassonne ties into changes I would love to see in Dominion and 7 Wonders--a map! Dominion allows you to collect duchies and provinces, but to what end? Shouldnt ownership of all that real estate grant you some sort of in-game effect? In fact, most of the scoring cards needed to win at Dominion have the opposite effect--they are not only useless during the game, but downright counterproductive! Why not collect them and build them into your kingdom on the tableau in front of you as you play? Dominions ability to collect assets and then randomize their appearance in your hand as they game progresses allows you a degree of control of your tools, but only a limited degree, which is not wholly unrealistic as the ruler of a sprawling realm.Dominions hand management does offer a greater degree of control than 7 Wonders, however, where the cards you dont play are immediately handed to your opponent for them to inflict on you. Whats great about 7 Wonders is the uniqueness of the cards. Although there are some duplicates once you get into 6 and 7-player games, by and large, each card you see (and perhaps pass on) is only coming around one time. If you dont grab the Scriptorum this turn, you wont see it again. The other element of 7 Wonders that I enjoy so much is the ability to develop your city along a variety of different lines--commercial, civic, military, and scientific development paths are all available to you. At the end of the game, everyone has very different cities, but uniquely plausible ones, as theyve developed over the course of the game. This is a big contrast to Dominion, where there are essentially no unique cards for players to build off of.So how do you reconcile the two? Maybe instead of Dominions supplies of multiple copies of 10 different cards, you create fewer piles of types of cards, with more variety in them? How do you work that into a map-building mechanic like Carcassonne? And how do you make go as fast as Eight Minute Empire?The truth is, its pretty damned complicated. Theres a fine balance between plays quick and robust array of assets. Its a thin line between managing a multi-faceted culture and overwhelming the player with a muddle of details. And honestly, even a computer game like Civilization, that handles all the math behind the scenes for you, can bog down in the mid-game when its really all about resource-gathering before your final push to the end. Will I ever find the one game to rule them all? I have no idea. But if I cant, maybe Ill just design it myself instead.
^^when did you become a comedian?or... you could come to Origins and find out for yourself
how would you prefer that we tease you?

These are some of the properties:
• It's strong but relatively light. The specific tensile strength (stretching or pulling strength) of both 29 and 49 is over eight times greater than that of steel wire.
• Unlike most plastics it does not melt: it's reasonably good at withstanding temperatures and decomposes only at about 450°C (850°F).
• Very low temperatures have no effect on : tests found "no embrittlement or degradation" down to −196°C (−320°F).
• Like other plastics, long exposure to ultraviolet light (in sunlight, for example) causes discoloration and some degradation of the fibers in .
• can resist attacks from many different chemicals, though long exposure to strong acids or bases will degrade it over time.

yeah, it definatly wasn't the vast information exchange about a couple motorcycles....
Bo, I did to reflect the new beginning here on this new site. I wanted to assert for all the women here that you guys can't be here without us! LOL!
And you women can't be here without us men, ain't it funny how that works. LOL
Actually, they can, for some species:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenogenesis
Please refrain from giving women any ideas that they can get along without us...
Women can't live without men. Who would kill spiders and take lids off of jars?
Women can't live without men. Who would pay for everything?
I am going to hi jack this thread before the shooting starts. Anyone seen Dan Bergman around?
My wife has to kill the spiders in my house. It is the one thing I truly despise in this world. Doesn't matter how small either.

Glasgow's city centre is compact and easily explored on foot, but public transport will be needed to reach some of the major attractions, which are farther out. The integrated transport network includes a reliable but confusing bus system with connections to the underground and train network. Some routes operate limited services throughout the night. The simple underground system, also known as the Clockwork Orange, has two circular routes that are easy to understand; this is the best way to get between the city centre and the West End. The suburban train network is fast and efficient. Taxis are readily available and provide excellent, if fairly expensive, service. A car is not necessary in the centre, and it is often easier to get around using public transport. Car users can make use of the park-and-ride system at underground stations outside the city centre.
GMT (GMT +1 from last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October).
The electrical current in the UK is 240 volts, 50Hz. Flat, three-pin plugs are standard.
The currency is the British Pound (GBP), which is divided into 100 pence. ATMs are available in almost all towns and Visa, MasterCard, and American Express are widely accepted; visitors with other cards should check with their credit card companies in advance. Foreign currency can be exchanged at bureaux de change and large hotels, however better exchange rates are likely to be found at banks.
The international country dialling code for the UK is +44. Mobile phone coverage is extensive and free wifi is widely available in pubs and coffee shops.

Another scary finding from the DefCon hackers' conference: prisoners could escape from their jails, if hackers decided to lend a hand and hack into the prison's security systems.
A couple of years ago a prison's cell doors accidentally opened after a power blackout, which led security engineer John Strauchs to make the startling discovery that it would be possible to maliciously release the cell doors in a similar way.
While he hasn't obviously tested it out on a living, breathing prison, it's worried Strauchs that prison guards use the internet on the very same computers that control their security systems. One click of a stray link, and the wall of security could fall away. [Huffington Post]

Researchers Analyze 300 Million Tweets to Create Mood Ring for America
This is pretty amazing: researchers from Harvard and Northeastern universities took more than 300 million tweets over three years and analyzed them to create a graphic (and video) of America's mood at any given time and in any given place.
Above is the graphic that the researchers came up with (click to enlarge it), after an arduous process to determine the "24-hour Twitter mood cycle of the United States."
The group's web site explains the reasons for why—and the methods by which—they conducted the research:
In analogy to individual neurons firing together to add up to the human consciousness, the billions of tweets have meaningful macro-states that contain information about the whole system rather than the individual tweeters. But we need to do a little data mining to extract meaningful information about these states, to expose our collective states of mind.
As a proof-of-concept we've1 been studying the mood of all of the public tweets. While there are many services that will allow you to study the mood of your own tweets (and also an neat little DIY project to show you the global average of twitter), much less effort has gone into studying how the mood breaks down according to geography.
Pretty cool, yes? But we're not done yet! The researchers also created a time-lapse video that allows you to see the cycle in action as our collective moods were tallied over a 24-hour period (below the video, their explanation for how to interpret it):
Here are the notes the researches had with regard to the video:
In the video, green corresponds to a happy mood and red corresponds to a grumpier state of mind. The area of each state is scaled according to the number of tweets originating in that state. Note how the East Coast is consistently 3 hours ahead of the West Coast, so when we're sleeping in Boston, the Californians are tweeting away. It's also interesting that better weather seems to make you happier (or rather, that better weather is correlated with happier tweets): Florida and California seems to be consistently in a better mood than the remaining US. Also note how New Mexico and Delaware behave very differently from their neighbors. Full results, individual maps, and a high-res poster can be found on the dedicated Twitter Mood website.
So, what do you think? How about this: consider what time(s) of day you're in your best mood, and what time(s) of day you're in your worst mood, pair it with your location, and see if the data fits your personal experience.

So, about the reveal of who Twilight really is in Season 8...
And no, it's not Edward Cullen.
It's Angel.
Scott Allie has confirmed in a telephone interview that no, it's not a fake: it really is him. Although he refused to either confirm or deny whether it's Angel or Angelus, and whether he's still a vampire or if he's shanshued into human, and whether he's acting alone or part of something larger, or whether he and Buffy will fight or ally, or anything else about the storyline. (Yes, the interviewer asked all those questions and Scott stonewalled all of them.)
Scott also posted this on his Twitter account just now:
Someone else spoiled it yesterday and Joss thought we should address it since the fansites were all over it.
So what does this actually mean for the story?
Well, it explains how Twilight knows Buffy, and why he was reluctant to kill her on their first meeting. It explains how in person he's imposing and commanding, but sometimes a bit of a dork. It doesn't explain why he's raising an army of demons to kill all the Slayers, though...
If he's Angelus, that would explain it no problem, of course. But if he's still got his soul?
Well, have you seen Season 5 of 'Angel'? Of course Angel would be perfectly willing to work with evil monsters and demons, sacrifice innocents (such as Drogyn), deceive his closest friends, and generally be ruthless, if he thought he was doing it for a good purpose.
So what is his purpose? We don't know yet. But there's this line of his from 'A Beautiful Sunset' that bears repeating:
"One Slayer was all right, but all these girls? ...The world can't contain them, and they will suffer for that. I'll not kill you now. My first gift is my last. I know you meant well. But you have brought about disaster, and it falls to me to avert it."
Let's suppose, for the sake of argument, that Angel honestly believes that the presence of over 1800 Slayers in the world will upset its balance and, somehow, lead to an apocalypse. He thinks it's inevitable. What can he do?
One option would be to reverse the Slayer spell. And guess what? In 'Wolves At The Gate' his minions were trying to do just that. But they failed. So does he have any other option, except to kill all the new Slayers before it's too late? Sacrifice 1800 lives to save over six billion?
Angel is ruthless enough to do it. Is Buffy? Hard to say... but the Buffy whom Angel actually knew, the one in seasons 1 - 3, almost certainly wouldn't be ruthless enough. So, he doesn't tell her his plan.
He deliberately takes it upon himself to be the villain, to adopt a secret identity, and to become her enemy, all to keep Buffy's own hands clean. To let her hate him, and keep her pure while he does the dirty work that must be done. Isn't that just a classic Angel thing to do? (It's romantic and selfless and anti-heroic and patronising as all hell, and treating Buffy as a child who can't make decisions for herself.)
Assuming all this is true, I'm going to hope that in the final ten issues of Season 8, Buffy pulls out a dea ex machina that allows her to save the world without killing all the remaining Slayers... because as I've said before, if the spell in 'Chosen' was a metaphor for the empowerment and liberation of women, what does it say if in Season 8 all those empowered and liberated women have to be hunted down and killed in order to save the world? I kinda hope that's not the message Joss is going for here...
But until we see what happens, all of this is just speculation. I can't wait to find out for real.

Pratt & Whitney Celebrates 40 Years of F100 Engine Power
LONDO- FARNBOROUGH AIR SHOW - Pratt & Whitney celebrates 40 years of F100 propulsion, marking the development and delivery of its first F100 engines to support the F-15's first flight on July 27, 1972. Today, the F100 engine powers the F-15, F-16 and X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS), with an expanding F100 family of variants. Twenty-four customers worldwide have selected the F100 to power their F-15 and F-16 fighter jets over the past 40 years. Pratt & Whitney is a United Technologies Corp. (NYSE:UTX) company.
Pratt & Whitney's F100 engine is one of the most successful fighter engines in history. The combat-proven engine has more than 27 million engine flying hours of experience. Pratt & Whitney has built more than 7,200 F100 engines for 23 countries around the world.
"For 40 years, the F100 engine has provided air forces around the world with superior performance and modern propulsion capabilities," said Bev Deachin, vice president, Pratt & Whitney Military Programs & Customer Support. "We look forward to continuing to provide our customers with the world-class safety and reliability the industry has enjoyed from the F100."
The newest member of the F100 engine family, the F100-PW-229 Engine Enhancement Package (EEP), offers significant safety benefits, and increases the engine depot inspection interval from 4,300 to 6,000 total accumulated cycles (TAC). This increase is equivalent to extending the depot interval from seven years to ten years. In addition, the EEP provides a 30 percent life cycle cost reduction over the life of an F100-PW-229 engine.

Center back joins Hammers through March 5
– Defender George John has been loaned to English League Championship side West Ham United for two months, FC Dallas announced today. At the end of the two-month loan, West Ham will have the option to complete a full transfer for John. Per team and league policy, terms of the loan will not be disclosed.
"This is an opportunity for George to raise his play to another level," said head coach Schellas Hyndman. "He has the opportunity to spend time with a club rich in tradition, playing in one of the top leagues as they work to earn a promotion back to the Premiership. I have no doubt we will see an even better center back at the end of this period."
Drafted by FC Dallas in the first round (14th overall) of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft, John made his professional debut on April 4, 2009. The 24-year old center back scored his first career goal on Oct. 17, 2009 in a 2-1 win over the Colorado Rapids. John finished his rookie season with 16 appearances and 1,162 minutes played. He recently earned his first call-up to the U.S. National Team by head coach Jürgen Klinsmann, but was unable to attend because of the pending loan to West Ham United.
John started 31 regular season matches for FC Dallas in 2011, accumulating a career-high 2,781 minutes played. Only goalkeeper Kevin Hartman (2,970) logged more minutes for Dallas in MLS competition. John scored three goals and added one assist. He also finished eighth in the 2011 MLS Castrol Index, which analyzes player performance throughout the season.
A native of Shoreline, Wash., John logged 25 starts and 2,138 minutes played during the 2010 season. His lone goal of the year was a timely one, coming in FC Dallas' 3-0 win over the L.A. Galaxy in the Western Conference Semifinal. John's presence on FC Dallas' backline helped the team set a franchise record for fewest goals allowed in a season.
John becomes the fifth American to sign for the club after John Harkes, Ian Feuer and Jonathan Spector, with compatriot Sebastian Lletget, an American Under-23 international, in the club's development squad.

Choo! Choo! Chomp! Even though I coordinate our school's science fair, science is a subject that we haven't spent a lot of time on yet at home. However, my daughter has learned a few things through watching shows like The Jim Henson Company's Dinosaur Train on PBS. The show encourages basic scientific thinking and skills as well as discussing various dinosaurs, life science, natural history and paleontology. Both my kids like watching Buddy the Tyrannosaurus Rex travel on the dinosaur train with his adoptive Pteranodon family. Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous - I can barely say those words but thanks to the show my children can easily recite them along with spouting out other interesting dinosaur facts.

Bonnee Binker is one of 5 testers who recently followed The South Beach Diet Supercharged program over a six-week period. The testers met regularly with Kris Belding, the Miami-based Pilates instructor who developed the toning moves in The South Beach Diet Supercharged, the new book by The South Beach Diet creator Dr. Arthur Agatston, who added a fitness component to his heart-healthy eating plan. Bonnee was interviewed by Prevention writer Camille Noe Pagán while following the program.
Week 1
PVN: Did you think "I'm not sure I can do that" after first learning about the diet or exercise instructions?
Bonnee: Oh, no! It was the exact opposite. I left the first meeting thinking "Wow, I really can do this!" I'm excited that today I get to meet with Kris for a private workout session. She's great at making you feel good because she tells you how yummy and delicious you're going to be.
Week 2
Bonnee: I had a great workout session with Kris today. She's pushing me to the next level, but this doesn't mean new exercises. It means doing the ones I already do, but doing them slower and deeper. It's amazing to feel my body react to movements I've never done before, and my posture has definitely improved as I "soften my chest area and pull my shoulder blades together." Kris is so motivating.
Bonnee (end of Week 2): The exercise program is going great. I haven't gotten to the point where I get up and say "Wow, I can't wait to do my exercise routine," but once I start, I end up loving it! On Friday I didn't get home from work until 10:00 p.m. I decided that I was only going to do Phase 1 of the exercises, even though on most days I do both Phase 1 and 2. But once I finished the first set I decided to do the arm exercises from Phase 2. Then, since I'd already done the arms, I decided to do the mat exercises. Next thing I knew, I'd done them all. It felt great! I'm doing well with my walking routine, too. I've been switching off between walking outside and using the elliptical.
Week 3
PVN: Now that you're through week 3, has it gotten easier to stick with the program [both the food and exercise]?
Bonnee: Funny that you should ask about the exercise. Kris and I had a long talk about it. I had a very difficult time with exercise this week. As much as I've loved doing the routine, I absolutely dreaded it this week because of the pain in my foot. I have Plantar Fasciitis in my left foot. When I'm at work, I'm on my feet 100% of the time and I think that makes it flare up. On top of that, I wear my sneakers for work and exercise, which I know I shouldn't do. I got a new pair, but that didn't help. I ended up modifying my workout to take the pressure off my foot. Confessing my exercise sin to Kris was the best thing I could do. She gave me foot exercises after she watched me walking and working out. She said that I wasn't walking on the right part of my foot and that was possibly why I developed Plantar Fasciitis. I already feel the pressure off of my heel.
Week 4
Bonnee: The exercise definitely makes me feel good. I'm still complaining about having to do it, but once I start I feel much better. I'm not sure why I can't break through not wanting to do it. I want to be one of those people who love going to the gym!
Week 5
Bonnee: My attitude toward exercise has totally changed! I'm not where I want to be yet (yeah, it's time to exercise), but now I know it's as important as my diet--not just to lose weight, but for eating healthy.
Week 6
Bonnee: Final check-in! Exercise was non-existent in my life over the past few years. Now I can't find enough ways to keep moving. There's a shopping center about a mile from my house and I love walking there.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- The Lewis Katz Building, home of Penn State Law on the University Park campus, has been awarded LEED certification established by the U.S. Green Building Council and verified by the Green Building Certification Institute. LEED measures the design, construction and operation of high-performance green buildings.
"Building operations are nearly 40 percent of the solution to the global climate change challenge," said Rick Fedrizi, president, CEO and founding chair of the U.S. Green Building Council. "As the newest member of the LEED family of green buildings, Lewis Katz Building is an important addition to the growing strength of the green building movement."
The 114,000-square-foot Lewis Katz Building achieved LEED certification for energy use, water and material use and other sustainable strategies. Designed by Ennead Architects of New York (formerly Polshek Partnership), the Lewis Katz Building includes many green features, including:
-- A green roof that reduces storm water runoff and reduces the building's "heat island" effect;
-- Steel fabricated in the eastern United States and other local building materials;
-- A library awash in natural light thanks to a ceramic fritted glass curtain wall that absorbs heat in the winter and casts off heat in the summer;
-- On-site showers that encourage biking or jogging to the facility.
"Minimizing energy consumption associated with new facilities is key to the University's role as a global citizen," said Ford Stryker, Penn State's associate vice president of Physical Plant. Stryker explained that since 2002 all new construction and major renovations at the University are designed to be LEED certified. "The green roof, for example, insulates the building, lowers our heating and cooling costs and lengthens the life of the roof, which will save money and reduce the University's carbon footprint for many years."
Dedicated on April 24, 2009, the building is named in honor of Lewis Katz, whose generosity enabled construction to begin.
LEED certification is the latest in a series of awards for the Lewis Katz Building. The building, which also houses the School of International Affairs, has received honors from the Society of American Registered Architects New York Council, the Society of American Registered Architects Pennsylvania Council, the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Pittsburgh, and the highest, Platinum rating from the College Designer Collabetition Awards for design excellence. The Lewis Katz Building was named "Project of the Year" by Mid-Atlantic Construction magazine and was a finalist in the 2009 Building Magazine's Project Innovations Awards.

JETS: New York cuts veteran Bart Scott and others to make cap room
NEW YORK >> As the New York Jets began their salary-cap purge Tuesday, they still faced their two most difficult offseason decisions: What to do with Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow.
The Jets cleared about $31 million in salary cap space by cutting veteran linebackers Bart Scott and Calvin Pace and three other players. Safety Eric Smith, backup offensive lineman Jason Smith, and tight end Josh Baker also were released Tuesday. The moves were expected because New York entered the offseason more than $20 million over the cap for the 2013 season.
They were the first significant personnel decisions made by new general manager John Idzik, who was hired to replace the fired Mike Tannenbaum last month.
Idzik will be plenty busy this offseason. The Jets are hamstrung by the contract of starting quarterback Sanchez, who is coming off a miserable season but is guaranteed $8.25 million next season. He would cost the Jets a $17.1 million cap hit if they cut him.
So Sanchez will almost certainly be back, unless the Jets can trade him. If Sanchez returns, he will likely have to compete for the starting job, and the Jets will be in the market for a quarterback in free agency or the draft.
Tebow, who barely played after being acquired from Denver in a trade last year, is expected to be released soon. The Jets advertised Tebow as a do-everything addition to their offense, but he rarely was asked to do anything by coach Rex Ryan and offensive coordinator Tony Sparano, who since has been fired by Ryan.
Ryan praised the players released, particularly Scott, Pace and Eric Smith, who at various times were integral parts of a strong defense that slumped the last two years.
"Every one of these players was a major contributor to our football team," Ryan said. "I was very impressed with Jason this past season, while Bart, Calvin and Eric have been an instrumental part of our defense for the past four years. `'
Scott, one of Ryan's favorite players and one of the league's top trash talkers, has been slowed by injuries and had surgery in the offseason to repair torn ligaments in his right big toe. The 32-year-old linebacker had just 60 tackles last year and saw his streak of 119 consecutive games end because of the toe injury.
Scott was due to make $6.9 million next season, and saves the Jets $7.1 million on the cap with his release. There's a chance Scott could come back at a lesser salary, but Demario Davis, the team's third-round draft pick out of Arkansas State last year, is expected to slide into Scott's inside linebacker role opposite David Harris.
Scott spent his first seven NFL seasons in Baltimore along with Ryan, and followed the coach to New York when Ryan was hired in 2009. Scott signed a six-year, $48 million contract, and was a playmaker in his first two seasons with New York, helping the Jets reach consecutive AFC championship games.
But he slowed on the field the last few seasons, and had issues off the field. When the team was cleaning out its lockers following the regular-season finale in 2011, Scott made an obscene gesture in front of a cameraman and was fined $10,000 by the team. He also criticized fans for being harsh on the team by telling the Daily News that they were probably "picked last in dodgeball all through high school." He also told Newsday that they probably couldn't make it through "a high school practice."
Pace, a 2003 first-round pick by Arizona, spent his first five seasons with the Cardinals before signing a six-year deal with the Jets in 2008. He had seven sacks in his first season in New York, and eight the following year, but never became the dominant pass rusher the Jets envisioned.
He struggled with various injuries and his role changed at times, limiting him to 13 sacks -- including just three last season -- in the last three years. The 32-year-old Pace has 42 career sacks, and played mostly at outside linebacker for the Jets.
Bryan Thomas, the team's other starting outside linebacker, is also a free agent and might not be re-signed.
Jason Smith was acquired from St. Louis shortly before the season opener when the Rams and Jets swapped struggling right tackles. New York sent Wayne Hunter to the Rams.
Smith, the No. 2 overall pick in 2009, was a backup all season to Austin Howard. He came in as an extra blocker or as a jumbo tight end, and his release -- because of a roster bonus of $11.25 million due to him -- was expected. He saves the Jets $12 million in salary cap space.
Smith's career was plagued by concussion problems and ineffectiveness with the Rams. He was limited to only 29 games in his three seasons in St. Louis, but played in all 16 games in New York.
Eric Smith has been with the Jets since 2006, when they drafted him in the third round. He was an occasional starter at safety, including 14 games in 2011, and also was a special teams standout.
Releasing the hard-hitting Smith saves $3.5 million.
Baker played for the Jets in 2011, making three receptions. He went on injured reserve after injuring his right knee last August and did not play in 2012.
The Jets have 12 players scheduled to become unrestricted free agents next month, including safeties LaRon Landry and Yeremiah Bell, running back Shonn Greene, tight end Dustin Keller, wide receiver Braylon Edwards, defensive lineman Mike DeVito and offensive linemen Brandon Moore and Matt Slauson.

For those of us with very slow internet and no sound on our computers, can you tell us what the products were, and what the iron was for? I mostly just see dots circling when watching videos, and with no sound as well, I can't figure out a lot of stuff, that's going on.

Really liked your video, and you introduced me to a new product. With everyone making intricate die cuts, gluing them isn't the easiest. But the way you showed how to do it on the craft mat was perfect. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks.

Great video. Hope you continue your tip ideas. Love hearing about them and seeing you use them. Thanks for sharing. Edna B.

Thanks for the video!! I'm almost embarrassed to admit this but I have a couple of these intricate dies and haven't used them yet as I didn't know how on earth I was going to get them adhered to my paper. The dies were just so beautiful but, after I got them home, I didn't know what to do. Now, for the embarrassing part---I have the Glue & Seal and it never even dawned on me to use it for these dies!! Thanks again!!
- April 21, 2012 at 6:59 PM
I enjoyed the video and have not used that glue but I will now.
I have a comment to the blogger with a slow internet. Mine is a little slow also. Once the video starts, I put it on pause. I go clean my bathroom (LOL) while it loads then I come back, push the arrow for start, and watch the video. This solves the problem for me.

Joan, as usual you did an amazing job with your demonstration and your "first video was awesome. I look forward to many more videos with your tips and techniques. :)

Hi Joan,
I do not think you received my comment and question. Sorry if you get this twice....
I love that you are going to do videos! Cant wait for more.
Does the brush you used come with the glue? Can it be used for other glues and if so can it be cleaned?
Hugs, Joanne G

Great Video! I didn't know about the Ranger glue, must try it soon. If you put this glue over/covering your die cut and your cardstock is colored, will this dry and look shiny on the colored cardstock? Looking forward to more videos!
FYI: LOVED your fingernails. They look so 'finished' and the color is great :+)
