Great photos!
What's interesting is the 2.2 1/3-stop in the second photo. I take it you were in shutter-priority and the camera chose that stop?

REAL VALUE ESTATES, INC. (A Development Stage Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS November 30, 2009 NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on December 20, 2007. The Company has limited operations and is considered a development stage company and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. As a development stage enterprise, the Company discloses the deficit accumulated during the development stage and the cumulative statements of operations and cash flow from inception to the current balance sheet date. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRACTICES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a May 31 fiscal year end. UNADITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The interim financial statements of Real Value Estates, Inc. as of November 30, 2009, and for the period ended November 30, 2009, and cumulative from inception, are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly Real Value Estates, Inc.'s financial position as of November 30, 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended November 30, 2009, and November 30, 2008, and cumulative from inception. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the calendar year ending May 31, 2009. The accompanying financial statements and notes thereto do not reflect all disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Refer to the Company's audited financial statements as of May 31, 2008, filed with the SEC for additional information, including significant accounting policies. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share amount are computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company. CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial statements. 7
INCOME TAXES Income taxes are provided in accordance with FASB ASC 740. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS Software development costs representing capitalized costs of design, configuration, coding, installation and testing of the Company's website up to its initial implementation. Upon implementation, the asset will be amortized to expense over its estimated useful life of three years using the straight-line method. Ongoing website post-implementation costs of operation, including training and application maintenance, will be charged to expense as incurred. NOTE 3. ADVERTISING The Company's policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company had not incurred any advertising expense as of November 30, 2009. NOTE 4. GOING CONCERN The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has net losses for the period from inception (December 20, 2007) to November 30, 2009. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations, to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management is planning to raise additional funds through debt or equity offerings. There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in these efforts. NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities. If a specific business opportunity becomes available, such persons may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and their other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts. On December 20, 2007, pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement, we sold 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to Ms. Marina Karpilovski, our President and a director, for cash payment to us of $1,000. We believe this issuance was deemed to be exempt under Regulation S of the Securities Act, as no advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities, the offering and sale was made only to Ms. Karpilovski who is a non-U.S. citizen, and transfer was restricted by us in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act. On December 20, 2007 pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement, we sold 4,000,000 shares of our common stock to Mr. Michael Zazkis, our Secretary, Treasurer and a director, for cash payment to us of $4,000. We believe this issuance was deemed to be exempt under Regulation S of the Securities Act, as no advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities, the offering and sale was made only to Mr. Zazkis who is a non-U.S. citizen, and transfer was restricted by us in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act. 8
NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES The Company uses the liability method , where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes. During fiscal 2008, the Company incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. NOTE 7. NET OPERATING LOSSES As of November 30, 2009, the Company has a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $55,024 which will expire 20 years from the date the loss was incurred. NOTE 8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AUTHORIZED The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001. All common stock shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company. ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING On December 20, 2007, the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares to its Directors for cash of $5,000. Since inception (December 20, 2007) to November 30, 2009, the Company accepted subscriptions for 1,380,200 common shares from 37 investors under a private placement scheduled to close on March 31, 2008. The private placement was not subject to any minimum investment and was priced at $0.04 per share. The Company accepted the subscriptions on various dates throughout the year. NOTE 9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, "Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly" ("FSP FAS 157-4"), codified in FASB ASC 820-10-65, which provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10 when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. ASC 820-10-65 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The adoption of ASC 820-10-65 did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations or financial condition. In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events" ("SFAS 165") codified in FASB ASC 855-10-05, which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855-10-05 also requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated as well as the rationale for why that date was selected. FASB ASC 855-10-05 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. FASB ASC 855-10-05 requires that public entities evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140" ("SFAS 166"), codified as FASB ASC 860, which requires entities to provide more information regarding sales of securitized financial assets and similar transactions, particularly if the entity has continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. FASB ASC 860 eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity," changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets and requires additional disclosures. FASB ASC 860 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of FASB ASC 860 did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 9
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)" ("SFAS 167"), codified as FASB ASC 810-10, which modifies how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. FASB ASC 810-10 clarifies that the determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity's purpose and design and a company's ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. FASB ASC 810-10 requires an ongoing reassessment of whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. FASB ASC 810-10 also requires additional disclosures about a company's involvement in variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. FASB ASC 810-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of FASB ASC 810-10 did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the sole source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles. Pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC 105, we have updated references to GAAP in our financial statements. The adoption of FASB ASC 105 did not impact the Company's financial position or results of operations. NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company evaluated events occurring between the balance sheet date and December 17, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued and there were no reportable events. 10
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION GENERAL OVERVIEW Since incorporation, we have not made any significant purchases or sale of assets, nor have we been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations. Real Value has never declared bankruptcy, has never been in receivership, and has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Real Value Estates is a development stage company that was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on December 20, 2007. We currently have no revenue and no significant assets. Our offices are currently located at 3/11 Trumpeldor St., Holon 58271 Israel. Our telephone number is +972-54-779-1657. On March 11, 2009, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Moore & Associates, Chartered, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, the independent registered public accounting firm who had been engaged as the principal accountant to audit our financial statements, and the appointment of Alan Weinberg CPA as its new auditor. We are developing and plan to offer a website related to the residential real estate foreclosure market, containing an online social network for those involved in foreclosures, an online database with residential real estate foreclosure property listings, and a knowledge base with educational and informational materials about the foreclosure market. We plan to include foreclosure listings searchable by state, county and city throughout the United States. The site will be user-friendly and will enable our subscribers to communicate with each other and to search and locate foreclosure, pre-foreclosure and real estate owned properties with ease. Our foreclosure properties database is currently made available by foreclosure.com. Through initial searches on our site, our subscribers will be able to view preliminary data about the foreclosure properties such as the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the sale price and a portion of the street address. Subscribers, who desire to obtain full access to the property information, including the seller's contact information, will be redirected to foreclosure.com and will be asked to subscribe to that site. Subscription to foreclosure.com requires payment of fees to that site, which can range from weekly fees of $9.99 to monthly fees of $39.80. These fees will be required to be paid in addition to any subscription fees we may charge for our site. Pursuant to our affiliate agreement with foreclosure.com, dated July 29, 2008, we earn a 25% commission on each subscriber fee collected by foreclosure.com as a result of the referral to that site from the redirection link from our website. PLAN OF OPERATION The following discussion of the plan of operation, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and changes in financial position of our Company should be read in conjunction with our most recent financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q; and our registration statement on Form S-1 (File no. 333-153846), which was declared effective on October 16, 2008. We are a development stage company with very limited operations to date, no revenue and very limited financial backing. We have established the following goals over the next 12 months: * complete development of our website and launch it publicly by December 2009; * drive traffic to our website through marketing efforts utilizing online advertising campaigns using Google AdWords, and information style email advertising campaigns; * generate revenue by December of 2009, (approximately three months following the planned launch of our website), through receipt of premium membership fees paid by our premium subscribers, the commissions from foreclosure.com for referring subscribers to their site, as well as through fees paid to us from advertisers on our site; and * achieve break-even results of operations. During the first stages of our company's growth, our officers and directors will be responsible for executing the business plan at no charge. Since we intend to operate with very limited administrative support, the officers and directors will continue to be responsible for administering the company for at least the first year of operations. Management has no intention at this time to hire additional employees during the first year of operations. Due to limited financial resources, each of the management team will dedicate approximately 30 hours per week, to ensure all operations are executed. During the first quarter, our executive directors continued to develop the content for our website. We added articles and videos about different aspects of buying foreclosures. This process is expected to be an ongoing interactive process for the next several months. We expect to incur additional development and programming costs in the second and third quarter. 11
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Our company posted losses of $2,430 for the three month ended November 30, 2009. Compared to posted losses of $3,098 for the three month ended November 30, 2008. From inception to November 30, 2009 we have incurred losses of $55,024. The principal component of our losses for the second quarter included filing fees of $80 general and administrative costs of $850 and professional fees of $1,500 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At November 30, 2009, we had working capital of $5,184 compared to $9,953 at May 31, 2009. We opened the second quarter with approximately $7,463 in cash. As of the date hereof, we have approximately $5,184. Because we have not generated any revenue from our business, and currently have a budgeted shortfall and we will need to raise significant, additional funds for the future development of our business and to respond to unanticipated requirements or expenses. Our current cash balances will be extinguished within the next 3-6 months provided we do not have any unanticipated expenses. Our ability to successfully develop our product and to eventually produce and sell it to generate operating revenues also depends on our ability to obtain the necessary financing to implement our business plan. Given that we have no operating history, no revenues and only losses to date, we may not be able to achieve this goal, and if this occurs we will not be able to pay our development and marketing costs and we may go out of business. We may need to issue additional equity securities in the future to raise the necessary funds. We do not currently have any arrangements for additional financing and we can provide no assurance to investors we will be able to find such financing if further funding is required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including investor acceptance of our planned website and our business model. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. The resale of shares by our existing shareholders pursuant to this prospectus may result in significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock and cause negative impact on our ability to sell additional equity securities. Obtaining loans will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments, and there can be no assurance that we will even have sufficient funds to repay our future indebtedness or that we will not default on our future debts if we were able to even obtain loans. There can be no assurance that capital will continue to be available if necessary to meet future funding needs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be forced to scale back or cease operations, which might result in the loss of some or all of your investment in our common stock. 12
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK This Item is not applicable to the Company. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As required by Rule 13a-15 under the 1934 Act, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, being the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2009, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon the results of that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provide reasonable assurance that material information related to our company is recorded, processed and reported in a timely manner. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for the design of internal controls over financial reporting. The fundamental issue is to ensure all transactions are properly authorized and identified and entered into a well-designed, robust and clearly understood system on a timely basis to minimize risk of inaccuracy, failure to fairly reflect transactions, failure to fairly record transactions necessary to present financial statements in accordance with the U.S. GAAP, unauthorized receipts and expenditures or the inability to provide assurance that unauthorized acquisitions or dispositions of assets can be detected. The small size of our company makes the identification and authorization process relatively simple and efficient and a process for reviewing internal controls over financial reporting has been developed. To the extent possible given our company's small size, the internal control procedures provide for separation of duties for handling, approving and coding invoices, entering transactions into the accounts, writing checks and requests for wire transfers. As of November 30, 2009, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conclude that our system of internal controls is adequate and comparable to those of issuers of a similar size and nature. There were no significant changes to our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the most recent quarter ended November 30, 2009, including any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses of internal controls that would require corrective action. MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the U.S. GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. INHERENT LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: * pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; * provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with the U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and * provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Management does not expect that our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. 13

Lions Club helps others see better
Published: Saturday, December 12, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 11, 2009 at 8:16 p.m.
The Hendersonville Lions Club spread holiday cheer for all to hear with music and stories Friday at its annual holiday party. The luncheon, at the Chariot, celebrates the season as well as some of the people the Lions help out year round -- the visually impaired.
"The Lions' motto is 'We serve,' " said Lion President Fred Huscher. "And that's what we're all about."
One hundred and twenty-seven people came out for the party. Michael Nelipovich, who moved to Hendersonville about 10 months ago from Wisconsin, recently became a member. Nelipovich is also blind. He had a congenital defect that was diagnosed at age 5. It took 40 years to lose his sight.
He has a master's degree and his doctorate and worked as a university professor. He was also the director of an agency in Wisconsin to help the blind or visually impaired.
"Orientation is the key word," said Nelipovich. "Sighted people are awe-struck we can sign our names, shop for groceries."
Nelipovich has received computer training From agencies in the area and is helping others become oriented to Hendersonville. He works with support groups in the area who offer a safe place for people who are blind to share stories and advice.
"We teach them how to maintain their lives and not be dependent upon sighted people," Nelipovich said.
One of the missions of Lions Club International is to help people with visual impairments. The local club provides glasses and other visual aids to community members. They have also provided Braille books, a ball that makes noise and a Braille alphabet to a Head Start program with children who have visual problems.
"They're using it to teach children with sight about being without vision," said Gwen Hill, a Lions Club member.
The club also sponsored a guide dog named Marty and paid for it through its training. The dog has been assigned to work with a veteran of the Iraq war.

Diabetes Health Center
Structured Training Program Helps Diabetics Keep Blood Sugar in Control
If you'd like to discuss different ways to control diabetes, go to WebMD's Diabetes board moderated by Gloria Yee, RN, CDE. continued...
William Clarke, MD, and colleagues completed a study showing that the latest version of BGAT, called BGAT-2, helped 73 adults with type 1 diabetes improve their ability to detect when their blood sugars were too high or low.
The program also helped these individuals to worry less about the risks of their condition. Importantly, the benefits attained from completing this program were long lasting. Clarke is a professor of pediatrics at the University of Virginia Health Sciences Center in Charlottesville. The research is published in this month's issue of the journal Diabetes Care.
"This is not a quick fix; it's not easy," says Clarke about BGAT. "... This is not the McDonald's of improving glucose control. ... In order for it to be effective, you have to take the eight-week program, and there is homework that has to be done throughout the week. Without doing those sorts of things, you can't really improve your own awareness [of your blood glucose levels]. But once you've improved that awareness, it's something that seems to carry over for a long period of time."
Lois Exelbert, RN, MS, CDE, is a diabetes nurse educator. They use BGAT at the Diabetes Education Center at Baptist Hospital of Miami, where she is administrative director. She says it is extremely effective for helping individuals with diabetes recognize when their sugar levels are off, so they can fix the problem immediately in the short term and make changes to diet, exercise, and/or medication in order to prevent these ups and downs in the long term. Importantly, the program also teaches crucial safety strategies such as not getting behind the wheel of a car unless you've checked your blood sugar levels.
"The misconception is that everybody with diabetes is going to be subject to passing out from low blood sugar and just expect it," she says. "But not everybody has to have low blood sugar where they're passing out. ... It 's not an automatic function of having diabetes, and there's absolutely ways to prevent it."
One of Exelbert's patients, who prefers that her name not be used, has had type 1 diabetes for 27 years. She took the BGAT program in 1997 because she found, like many people who have had type 1 diabetes for several years, that she no longer experienced the obvious signs of low blood sugar, such as sweating and tremor. She found that the program was well worth the considerable effort and time required and recommends it to anyone interested in better understanding their disease and preventing long-term complications.

We bought this for our daughter for her eighth birthday. She has no trouble using it and it sounds great. She loves being able to plug her mp3 player in and listen. She loves that it is blue instead of black and silver like most. We have other RCA players and have been very pleased with their performance.
I have just repackaged this product to return it to the store. The CD player hangs up without reason. There is no dependency in using the product.
It's now November 27th. We bought these (2) boomboxes for our grandchildren for Christmas. Everything seems to work out of the box. The volume doesn't get terrably loud which can be a blessing to parents. How well they will hold up under the kids punishment remains to be seen.
One thing that suprised me is that you have to push the CD drawer in, there is no button for that. The owners manual can be aquired from the RCA website for more information. Overall I think it was a good investmant for the price.
We bought this for my son (who is 5 years old) for Christmas and is very into music. A big part of why we bought it was for the MP3 functionality, so that he didn't have to use earbuds/earphones. So far it has been great, and the MP3 player functionality works great. That said, the MP3 player he has is also RCA, so I don't know about the compatibility of other MP3 players, but ours works very well.
I bought the product because of its key features CD player and MP3 connector and cradle to store an MP3 player. It is good for the price I paid. The sound is OK and seems a bit flat.
I wasn't aware that the MP-3 player I purchase from walmart had a diffence size plug-in than the purchased boombox's inlet. I purchase a adapter however it doesn't seem to help.
Bought as a Christmas gift for my 11 yr old son. Product does everything it says, but just feels cheap, the radio has a dial tuner and is difficult to find channels.
quality of procuct was excellent and price was good too. product was processed,shipped and received quicker than i expected. It was exactly what i was looking for
I use this boombox to play my MP3 player every night at work. I absolutely LOVE it!

Twin-Star Boosts Function On Updated Mantle
Tuesday October 29th, 2013 - 12:52PM

Although it continued to expand its line of desks, including a new, utilitarian model in an informally dubbed iPod white finish, Twin-Star International also built out its line of electric fireplace mantles at last week's Fall High Point Market. Among the new products, the company offered an update on a freestanding mantle that offered a new heating unit and more functional design.
The new 23RM2094-C327 mantle, 37 inches wide by 11.75 inches deep by 28.25 inches high in a Midnight Cherry finish, rolls out with an infrared heating unit that not only is more colorful than earlier versions but also extends the product's warming range. However, the mantle can fit any Twin-Star heating unit, so it can be offered sans infrared. Twin-Star added a magazine rack to the mantle itself to make the item more useful, in line with the trend of furnishings flexibility evident throughout the market.
Suggested retail price is $349 and it ships in January.

We're still waiting for the dust to settle around Google's Alphabet move, but already we're seeing major movement in the superstructure, and one of the major ones is about what used to be Google's gaming arm -- Niantic Labs. We're getting word via an announcement that sounds like Niantic will be spun out of Google's control into a separate corporate entity.
So yeah, it looks like N is not for Niantic, under the new Alphabet holding company. "Niantic Labs is becoming an independent company," they say in the announcement via Niantic's Google Plus account. "We'll be taking our unique blend of exploration and fun to even bigger audiences with some amazing new partners joining Google as collaborators and backers."
Niantic will be invariably connected with Google, but this time only a "collaborators". Niantic Inc. still has Ingress to fall back on, and it's a pretty huge fall back option. If you haven't heard of Ingress, which is not likely if you're reading this piece of news, it's a massively multiplayer online game which uses the GPS system in a player's phone to "conquer" real world places. Taking control of such places will have in-game bonuses, especially for the player's faction of choice. The game has been download more than 12 million times and is a veritable hit for the fledgling company.
Where Niantic goes from here is a good question -- it will be good to see something fresh from the company soon. Ingress players should also watch out for the account information migration that will possibly follow this announcement.

Hold the Presses…
Seattle Weekly just launched a new web site, featuring finicky drop-down tabs, "stylishâ fonts that were "invented at Microsoft,â and "colors that evoke Seattle and the Northwestâ (because nothing says "Seattleâ like maroon and periwinkle.)
Content-wise, the site's new web-only features include a list of stories that got the most online hits in 2005 (bad news for Geov Parrish: Not one of the self-proclaimed "only consistently progressive localâ columnist's stories made the cut); searchable calendar listings that, as of this afternoon, didn't work, and a list of local blogs that ranges from the well-known (Seattlest, Sound Politics, Horse's Ass), to the rightfully obscure (Gluten-Free Girl, an "account of living with celiac diseaseâ; Microsoft Watch, which offers "really inside baseball about technical developments.â)
Mysteriously overrepresented on the Weekly's list of links: the Seattle Post-Intelligencer (four of the P-I's seven blogs get plugs); big business (six of ten "biz/techâ blogs are about Microsoft, two are about Boeing and the ninth issurpriseabout Starbucks). Mysteriously underrepresented: Local politics (not one Seattle-focused political blog makes the list, although a blog about "local politics of the Eastside suburbsâ does) and the Stranger's own Slog, which, shockingly, merits nary a mention.
What will the Weekly's impending takeover by the New Times media chain mean for its redesigned web site? Hard to say, but a look at some of the chain's other clonish web sites could offer the Weekly's online readers a glimpse of the future.

Taiwan is not a typical destination for Westerners yet it is popular with Chinese visitors. Taiwan has its own President, constitution, armed forces and currency but is officially called the Republic of China (ROC) despite being part of the People's Republic of China (PRC).

There are many things that run through my mind when I start thinking about my recent trip in Xinjiang, China's far west region, which shares borders with Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and to the south to Tibet.
Back at our hotel, the tsunami watch was on and a security team kept watch, cellphones in hand, waiting for word from the nearby island of Langkawi, which, in the event of a tsunami, would experience the tidal wave.
The night market offers some of the best local fare on the island, without inflated prices or forceful wooing. Since it closes before the night creatures descend on town, you won't have to defend your bounty against the drunks.
Taipei is known for it's food. And for good reason. One quick jaunt around the city and the hungry traveler comes to this realization: Taiwanese love ...

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Nov 14th, 2007
Running Time: 180 Min.
Director: Stormy Daniels
Company: Wicked Pictures
Cast: Stormy Daniels, Kaylani Lei, Audrey Bitoni, Jenna Haze, Eva Angelina, Austin Kincaid, Roxy DeVille, Marcus London, Nicole Sheridan, Tony DeSergio, Veronica Rayne, Steven St. Croix, Melissa Lauren, Lorena Sanchez, Nakita Kash, Tommy Gunn, Randy Spears, Voodoo
Critical Rating: AAAAA
Genre: Feature
Obviously inspired by True Lies and Mr. & Mrs. Smith (with a little Spies Like Us thrown in), Operation Desert Stormy centers around low-level spy Steven St. Croix and his wife, Stormy Daniels, secretary to agency head Randy Spears (the "No, I'm an administrative assistant" joke gets old quickly, as does another repeater). The pair aren't getting along, as one might guess from St. Croix's opening nightmare: A hot cowgirl/reverse/mish scene between Daniels and Randy. (Well, that, and the fact that she deliberately flushes the toilet while he's showering ...)
But thanks to a couple of accidents, St. Croix and Stormy are sent on a mission to the Middle East, along with British agents Marcus London and Tony DeSergio, to stop Sultan Ron Jeremy from nuking the White House.
And oddly enough, just about everyone has sex doing it.
The good stuff starts early, with scientist Jenna Haze(!) tricking St. Croix into a virtual-reality "seduction" that includes horsie, mish and anal reverse cowgirl. Later, watching harem girls Nikita Kash and Lorena Sanchez glass-dildoing each other is a treat, but the harem doesn't really start to heat up until Marcus and Tony wander in and get quadruple-teamed, with plenty of cowgirl and girl/girl.
The non-sexual action is top-notch as well. It's fun watching Stormy kill all the enemies with her tiny revolver, and later, her fight with St. Croix over who uses the rocket launcher leads to him blowing up their jeep; that's just before Nicole Sheridan does her sky-dive (no, really!).
After Tommy Gunn finds St. Croix's VR goggles and has a hot (VR) anal session with mistress Melissa Lauren, we get the "big fight scene," St. Croix and Stormy saving the day ... and the big make-up scene that includes mish, doggie and spoon.
Pre-nom for Best Video Feature, Best Comedy, Best Director (Stormy), Best Actress (Stormy), Best Actor (St. Croix), Best Supporting Actor (Marcus London), Best Couples Scene (Stormy/Randy), Best Group Scene (harem scene), Best Art Direction, Best Screenplay, Best Special Effects, Best DVD Menus and Best DVD Extras.
Retailing: This is Stormy's big production of the year ... and it shows in every way.

Perhaps I'm retarded. Or perhaps I'm overlooking something.
My sidebar shows up just fine, the way I've set it at http://www.thisisdrew.com/photography
However, on my individual entry archive pages, (excuse my movable type vocabulary) my sidebar doesn't show up, as on:
Does it have something to do with the following code on sidebar.php:
<?php /* If this is the frontpage */ if ( is_home() || is_page() ) { ?>
<?php get_links_list(); ?> etc.. etc..
If so, what do I need to do? I want to display the sidebar exactly the same throughout all my pages.
Help out a retard. Its tax deductable I'm sure.

Vice-Chair of the Parish Council; Parish Councillor since August 2006 and a District Councillor for Eynsham & Cassington Ward from 2007-2011. View District Councillors' report to Annual Parish Meeting.
We have been Eynsham residents since 1997, moving here to take up a new job. Since then, my wife Jean has become the minister of the Baptist Church, having completed her training in Oxford, and both children have been through Bartholomew School. I'm still working full-time managing the development of new products for an electronic instrument manufacturer in Witney.
We very much enjoy living in the village, close to both city and country and with a lively and active community.
As a Parish and District Councillor, I want to contribute to maintaining and improving that quality of life, making the village a place where anyone can afford to live and be a part of the community.
I'm a member of GreenTEA whose long term aim is to sustain that same quality of life as oil gets scarce and energy more expensive and, when I get the time, I'll enjoy some of the practical aspects of sustainable living in my gardening and DIY.
Parish Councillor since November 2014.
I have lived in the village since 2006 and have two children who attended the primary school and who are now at Bartholomew School. I feel extremely fortunate to live in Eynsham, as a family we appreciate and have enjoyed all that the village has to offer - allotments, sports clubs, cubs & scouts, carnival, the village show - and understand the huge volunteer effort involved.
My work is in the historic environment and I have considerable experience of the challenges facing communities today particularly those with a rich heritage and valued history like Eynsham. I previously worked for Oxford Preservation Trust who own and care for Lords Farm and land at Swinford. and have considerable experience of the challenges facing communities today particularly those with a rich heritage and valued history like Eynsham. I also worked for Oxford Archaeology and my first excavation was at Eynsham Abbey. I am looking forward to being able to make a difference to my place.
Chairman of the Parish Council. View report to Annual Parish Meeting 26/04/2016
Parish Councillor since September 2011.
I have lived in Eynsham since 1998 and have become more aware during that time of the work which the Parish Council does to improve village life. I look forward to helping in whatever way I can.
My wife Liz and I have two sons - one is now at university having successfully studied at Eynsham Primary School, Bartholomew School and Cherwell College. The other has just finished at the primary school and is moving up to Bartholomew this September.
I work for the Atomic Energy Authority at the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE) near Abingdon on government liaison, having previously been involved in business strategy at Harwell, and studied physics at University.
Parish Councillor since September 2011.
I was born in Eynsham and have lived here most of my life. My 3 children all attended local schools. I work as an officer for Oxfordshire Country Council in School Organisation and Planning.
I enjoy walking, reading and archaeology. I also have a passion for Oxford United FC and am a season tickets holder.
I am keen to see the village community continue thrive and grow. I have a particular interest in issues around disability and children and young people.
Parish Councillor since November 2014.
Having visited my partner's family in Eynsham since the 80s, I moved here in 2003 to be closer to family and in time for our son to start primary school. I was keen that he should be able to walk safely to school which I couldn't be sure of where we lived in London.
I appreciate the local amenities, shops, schools, social groups and public transport which enable me (most of the time) to juggle a work / life balance.
I currently work 3 days per week (at home and in London) as Project / Communications Manager for a public health research centre based at UCL. I have over 25 years' experience as a project manager, in international disaster relief and development and in the university sector.
I'd like to see that changes in Eynsham are positive and beneficial to the community and welcome this opportunity to join the parish council.
Parish Councillor since 3 August 2010 and a District Councillor since May 2014. View report to Annual Parish Meeting 26/04/2016
My wife and I moved here from Worcester and found ourselves in a lovely vibrant, friendly community, we love it here. I was initially involved with the Council as a member of the Communications Committee and have recently joined the Local Government Ombudsmen Councillor Forum.
Since moving to the village I have completed my BA in Art History at Oxford Brookes, as a VERY mature student, a most enjoyable experience. My hobby is, and has been for more than 50 years, building and racing slotcars, which I race at tracks and competitions in the UK and beyond. I have recently created a 'man cave' in my Eynsham home so that I can have both a workshop and a track area - bliss.
Parish Councillor from November 2015
We moved to Eynsham in March 2012. I am married to Julie and we have two children Felix (15) and Neve (13). We also have cats, chickens, bees and will shortly get a dog.
Since moving to Eynsham we have been very happy living in the village and very impressed by the efforts that so many people make to ensure that this is a great place to live. When Rachel asked if I was interested in a role on the parish council I immediately saw this as an opportunity to make my own contribution to the village as well as getting to meet some more of the residents.
I enjoy running and cycling around the country lanes close to Eynsham. I like working on cars, I have a 1966 Volkswagen Caravanette and have recently bought myself a Triumph motorcycle.
I am an Operations Director for a global medical diagnostics manufacturer. We have a facility in Milton Park, Abingdon which is what originally brought me into the area, however I now mostly work from home and travel a fair amount as part of the job. I am hard working and enjoy operating in a fast paced and challenging environment solving issues with limited amounts of resource. I am hoping that skill set will be useful to the Parish Council.
I have been living in Eynsham for nearly forty years so nearly qualify as a local resident. My wife and I have brought up our two daughters here and the village schools have played a big part in tying us into the community.
This is my second stint on the Parish Council, having completed twelve years in the past. That period as a councillor led to my becoming chair of the Primary School Governors, as well as involving me in the playing fields committees and the two village charities.
My working life is spent in the NHS, where I am Technical Manager for the Oxford Kidney Unit responsible for the team ensuring safe operation of all the dialysis machines within a fifty mile radius of Oxford. Through work, I have also chaired the professional body of Renal Technologists, sit on two BSI committees, the Federation for Healthcare Science and the Registration Panel for Clinical Technologists.
I have always been a keen cricketer and play squash regularly, suffering the aches and pains accordingly ... who said sport was good for you!
Parish Councillor since August 2006.
I have lived in Eynsham since 1986 (apart from a 3 year stint in Cassington). I am a keen walker and enjoy camping, pubs, the theatre and the countryside. I love being involved in village life, both through the Parish Council and by simply living here.
Visit my page on Eynsham Walks >>
Parish Councillor since September 2011.
I was born and educated in London. After obtaining a Geography honours degree at Manchester University, I trained as an accountant in the NHS in Yorkshire and became a member of the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy in 1983.
I was Finance Director and subsequently Deputy Chief Executive of Oxfordshire Health Authority, then served as Chief Executive of Berkshire Health Authority in 1999 and Thames Valley Strategic Health Authority in April 2002 and am now Chief Executive of Ealing, Hillingdon and Hounslow PCTs.
I moved to Eynsham with wife Anne in 1985. Our son attended the local primary and Bartholomew School. Anne now runs a luxury wedding cake company from the village.
Parish Councillor since 3 November 2009.
Dennis moved to Eynsham full-time in 2000. He took early retirement in 2006 after 20 years as a solicitor in London and Oxford.
Parish Councillor from August 2015.
I grew up in Romford and went to a comprehensive school before going to Cambridge University. I did my graduate work in Glasgow and it was in Scotland that I met my beautiful wife Sara. I have worked for Glasgow, Strathclyde, Manchester and Oxford universities and been a fellow at Trinity College Dublin.
My academic specialism is in Celtic studies but I try not to stay in the ivory tower: I have given public lectures at the Manchester and the Grosvenor Museums and was historical consultant for a series of primary school textbooks published earlier this year. In Glasgow and again at Oxford, I worked in widening participation, promoting education for young people from non-traditional or disadvantaged backgrounds. I still lecture part-time and supervise several student theses but I am also working at an international school in Oxford.
We moved to Eynsham in 2010 and all three of our children are attending the primary school, with the eldest looking forward to moving up to Bartholomew next year. Eynsham is a fantastic place to live and we are very aware that the great things which drew us here contribute to the pressures of development in and around the village. I look forward to working with parish council colleagues and the wider village community to ensure that we continue to enjoy the best possible environment and amenities in the future.

This is our first time traveling on plane with LO. He is very active and doesn't want to sit still, so this will be difficult! We're bringing a DVD player. What other toys do you recommend? What food/drink items I can bring on the plane for him? Thank you!
Help with air travel
You can bring a sippy cup with a drink in it. We packed some snacks in her diaper bag and just sent it through the xray. No one ever asked about it. We take books that she hasn't seen in a while and her favorite stuffed animal. We've flown 6 times with DD and she's slept EVERY time. Good luck to you!
Jen, Wife to Brian, mom to Katterli Rayne- 6/19/09 (6#6o, 19") and Temperance Mae- 9/12/11 (8#8o, 20.75").
YES!! I soo logged on for advise on this! I was going to post something...last time we flew he was 9 months and he took the bottle at take off and slept the remainder of the 4 hour flight...
this time at 22 months i dont think i will be so lucky. he can barley sit still for a half hour in a cart or at home not alone my lap for another 4 hours of flight. it will be just me and my LO, hubby is staying back this trip...
p.s. my public service announcement...i apologize in advance for anybody on our flight. ear plugs are a great invention!
DVD player will be great -- and headphones if he'll wear them. Crayons and notebooks, little things of playdough, etc. -- New toys/books that you know he'll love.
Lots and lots of snacks -- you can bring anything on other than liquids. But you can buy liquids in the gift shop before you get on the plane.
One of my kids did really well with a lollipop -- a little dumdum kept her busy for a good 30 minutes.
Oh, and plenty of wipes! And extra clothes.
All the above mentioned!
We also never let DS walk on the airplane. It simply was never presented as an option! He is the same way, and I just held onto him. The DVD player saved us. It was brand new, so it was also that wow factor, with a new Elmo DVD =)
~ Jenni ~ I knit and craft.
Mom ~ DS's (6, almost 4, 22 months) and DSS (11)
We just did a Philly-London round trip, just my LO and me and he was a lap child.
We did walk around the plane on the way back quite a few times - but they were very long flights. Magna doodle was a big hit on the plane, as well as some books. Lots of snacks. There was a TV, but since my LO does not watch TV at home, he had zero interest in it, other than to push buttons (BitishAir has personal TVs).
Head over to traveling with Children board, one of the GOs there has a great website with tips for flying with children.
M born on 06/08/2009
We bought DS his own seat and put his carseat in it so he was sitting comfortably and we had room for toys/snacks in our laps... new toys new toys new toys!!!!! I let DH board first with the carseat and toys, etc and i ran LO all around to wear him down... We skipped his nap and i postponed his lunch till we had to board... Once in his seat, we did lunch and had milk during take-off and then snacks and toys... stickers were great! pipe cleaners and cheerios... fun for them to try to loop on the cleaner and eat! Id have special candy for meltdowns... GL! I also gave tylenol an hr before flight incase his ears wouldnt pop... (mine dont, so i know how painful it is)
Mandy (28) DH (38)
Type 2 Diabetic Mommy to Colton (5/22/09) & Arden (8/4/11)
We just got back Monday night from Texas (we are in Idaho) to see family. If your kiddo likes movies/tv bring a laptop or portable dvd player. That's what saved us on the longer portions of the flight. They will let you bring liquids in a sippy cup, they just do a paper strip test to it after you go through security. We had lots of snacks for her, and a few fun toys, coloring books etc. She found the pocket on the back of the seat fascinating and loved pulling the things in and out of it. Bring extra clothes for yourself and the kiddo. We were stuck in our seat at one point and couldn't go change a soggy diaper so she soaked through her little jeans and then soaked my pants. yuk! As far as diaper changes go, we got lucky for the most part and were able to change in the airport between flights, except once. She pooped and I had to go change her in the small bathroom. I just laid down her changing pad onthe ground sat on the toilet and changed her like that. It was a tight squeeze, but much easier then trying to change her on the toilet. I agree with a PP about letting them run around the airport and burning some energy that helped a lot too. Bring a comfort toy/blanket too, once she got sleepy we just pulled those out and snuggled up. She fell asleep for almost an hour like that. Last but not least the flight attendents were super friendly and more then willing to help out. They made suer we had something for her to drink for take off and landing etc. Just check in with them and let them know if you need it! =)
Selena, SAHM to snuggle bug Natalia 6/2/09 & pumpkin Lydia 10/12/11!
BABY BROTHER!!! Due March 13, 2014
I travelled on a transcontinental flight so what with diapers, wipes and change of clothing, we didn't carry any favorite toys or books. No room! He was just fine. The whole thing was very novel for him I guess, so we kept busy with the touch screen, headphones, inflight mags (lol) and taking short walks when permitted. The flight crew was super friendly and quite responsive except at mealtimes when they were the busiest. My son didn't really eat much but he had lots of juice and a snack so it was quite fine by me. The white noise really helped calm him down.

SoMI:SE mods
Alright, here are my current mods.
Backgrounds Fix Patch Version 5 (unfinished)
This mod fixes some backgrounds that were sloppy, rushed or in any way incomplete in the official version.
It will remove any artefact pixels left behind of the old backgrounds, fix any wonky alpha's and clean things up considderably.
Note that I have not yet fixed all backgrounds yet, it's a work in progress. More backgrounds will be fixed as I progress.
I have also added the fix for Stan's Store Sign made by Khar.

Mod threads on Telltale and Steam forums:
MISE file
ok guys, here is the first scene again
use the instruction I wrote above
This files is gonna be there for 14 days.
enjoy and let me know
I've continued work on fixing more of the forest again.
Here's an animated comparison .gif of what I'm actually fixing.
There are annoying pixels like that all over the scenes all over the forest.
Bump, I've updated my backgrounds fix mod again.
It now includes more of the forest, and also the treasure of melee island and a small fix in hell where there was a white stripe along the top edge of the screen.
Check my first post for all the details.
Found a background bug in the forest, missing ravine (on the right) in new version (see link to image):
That's actually quite a big mistake, it looks like they just thought it was a path instead of a ravine!
And yeah, I've noticed that mistake also before. Perhaps I'll copy a ravine from somewhere else and paste it in, I'll have to see what looks good and what doesn't.
First thing I want to congratulate you for doing such good work!
I think that a simple cut&paste from another scene or from the old version is the simplest and quick way for fixing that.
Don't worry, I know it's long to fix all that ;)
I'll continue to play to check if there are other things that need to be fixed with a certain priority.
Just so you know, checking for problems in the forest wont be that much help for me as I will eventually look at every scene in the forest anyway, since pretty much the whole forest if ****ed up. But if there are other problems with backgrounds elsewhere in the game, by all means please tell me, so I can fix them :D
Good stuff guys. Anyone keen on restoring Stan's sign to its former glory? :)
Yes Khar made a fix for Stan's sign. The old download was offline so I uploaded it again, here's the link:
Awesome!! Thanks so much guys
Just a news update, I'm working on some more fixes, I've fixed the moving plank outside the kitchen of the Scummbar which looked HORRID in the original MI:SE. Here's a preview of that perticular fix in the following order: Classic, Original MI:SE, Fixed MI:SE
I'm also working on fixes for the church and the road. Once I have another bigger batch of fixes I'll upload them.
Good stuff. I'm glad someone is doing this.
Yep me too. Very grateful. Still astounded by the fact that the fans have to do this.
niiice work about the plank (I didn't notice it was better in original mode). and...guys...what's the problem with the church? to me it seems to be good.
The church has lack of detail, bad alpha channels, remains of classic pixels and the candles don't move like in classic.
I actually love those original pixels. I think of them as eastereggs, in some places it's pretty obvious they were deliberately left there and they look great when switching to original. Thanks a ton for the signs! I really don't see why they changed them
doofi I think you can select what mods to add simply deleting the directory corresponding to the room you don't want to change. to me candle flames move too much in the old version, they move (in a subtle realistic way) in the new version, so I think I'll stick with church unmodified version.
The candle lights in the church SE unmodified don't move at all, the sprites are identical. They only move in the classic version. Most other rooms have proper moving candle lights, but not the church. That's why I want to fix it.
As for the pixels, even though some may not be bothered by them, I fix them because they look crappy and sloppy. Left overs that don't fit the new environment.
And yes you can delete specific room fixes and leave others so you have the fixes to want. Though it might be hard in some cases to know what fixes you want and which you don't, I'll make sure the readme is detailed enough so you can remove any unwanted fixes.
Can anyone fix that stupid "It's 10 O'Clock" bug that was introduced in the CD version of MI?
What bug? You mean: "It's 10 o'clock."..... "It's still 10 o'clock."..... "I guess theres always 10 o'clock here."............. I think its a joke, not a bug :P
I had the vga floppy version and I remember I noticed it when I was a child, it was always 10 o'clock...it's not a bug, pretty sure.
note: there are some small graphic errors in the scumm bar, under the first table on the left, with the sleeping pirate, some original pixels are visible. and the pirate standing against the wall seems like to have got different color palette in the different animation frames.
Not the dialogue, you silly people. Of course that's not a bug! The "It's always 10 O'Clock" speech progression should only happen once Guybrush have left the screen, and then come back.
In the CD version someone introduced a bug where you can have the whole progression non-stop, so Guybrush complains that "it's ALWAYS 10 O'Clock on this island" a few seconds after he's first read the time - making the whole thing idiotic.
What SHOULD happen is Guybrush says: "It's 10 O'Clock". If you look at it again, Guybrush still says "It's 10 O'Clock". If you leave the screen and come back and look at the clock, THEN Guybrush says "Hmm. It's still 10 O'Clock". And so on.
Irritating that the SE team didn't fix it.
I didn't know i had to leave to screen to see more Guy's comments :P
Man, I do actually like the special edition (I may never have played MI1 again otherwise) but some of the artistic oversights are borderline crazy. One I noticed yesterday is that when you're in the "Man it's hot here!" or whatever scene on Monkey Island, the vultures disappear behind rocks that aren't there.
Basically they moved where the background ridges are, but didn't move the clipping paths that the vultures go 'behind'. So you have these vultures weirdly appearing and disappearing in mid-air.
Amusing as they probably went to some trouble to get that realistic effect in the original. :o
I'll check that out and see what can be fixed.
I think it might be worth making a list of the problems with the SE. So, come on people, what didn't you like? Even if there's no chance of anyone fixing them (maybe one day it will be possible).
I'll start:
I'm sure there's a lot more...
Don't know if this has already been brought up, but I noticed the same visible pixels from the old background in the path to the Giant Monkey Head screen. A few of the totem poles had not really been changed at all
EDIT: and I seem to remember, during the scene where your crew all meets at the dock and looks out at the ship, there being some very weird things happening with the character sprites (overlapping strangely, etc)
Hm, perhaps replacing the narrator sound files with empty ones with the same names will remove the voice properly.
And couldn't you fix those pauses between lines by setting shorter text displaytime?
I plan to replace the Tentacle idol at the Giant Monkey Head back to a Sam and Max idol.
And I'll of course continue with fixing all sorts of minor errors in the backgrounds.
As for GB's hair. we should all get together to make a mod that changes all characters to CoMI style.
Right, here's a late christmas present from me to you guys.
An update for the backgrounds fix.
I've added fixes for the plank in the Scummbar kitchen, alpha fixes for the inside of the mansion and some alpha fixes for the church.
For the download, check my post at the top of the thread.
Great work
edit: whoops
Trilobite is with an I silly :P
When I get back from vacation, I'll be sure to try that to see if it works.
