You must throw your enemys away to gain money.
If you have enough money, built a temple to convert enemys into your people.
There are many possibilities to increase your income, just look in the buymenu.
If an enemy is recruited, you can drag them on towers which will convert them into bowmen helping you win the game.
Left mouse button : catch and hold to carry enemys
Arrow Keys : scroll through map
B : buy menu
P : pause Game
I'm sure it would be good
but unfortunately this kind of game is impossible to play with a track pad :( It is almost a rip off of defend your castle, but you added in some new things which makes it interesting.
It's an interesting game
Without a mouse here at the moment I am havings issues getting very far, and yes, the scrolling screen thing can be doubly frustrating on a tempermental touchpad. But anyway the game shows promise just some little quirks to be ironed.
Good idea, need some work
The idea is based on an very well known game. This do have some bugs in it that should be fixed. For example I could throw an enemy up again while it was dieing and still going even after dead. The archer dont seam to last very long either. The game can get a bit repeative with can make it dull. Good setting systems and good upgrades. Do get hard after a while which keeps it intersting. Overall a good simple game
this is kinda like...
the game Defend Your Castle...
the whole conversion, throwing guys around with your mouse and buying arrow units with guys who were converted...is JUST like DYC
only differences is:
different set-up/background
you have no mages/magic in your game
and i dont recall "crops" being money source in DYC..
good game, keep at it...i like these kinds of games ^^ just try going BEYOND whats already been made

From: Kyle, TX
Region: Southwest
Topic: Compost and Mulch
Title: Spreading compost from Kyle TX
Answered by: Barbara Medford
I'm trying to find if there is some type of "implement" to help spread compost in my yard that is easier than a shovel and rake. Any ideas?ANSWER:
Speaking from considerable personal experience with compost, this particular member of the Mr. Smarty Plants Team has some suggestions:
For openers, drag or push it as little as possible, especially over plants that could be uprooted by dragging equipment of any kind. Our favorite tool is a rake used tines side up, so that you are spreading without the spikes coming in contact with the plant. The second tool is what we have always called a "lawn broom." Sometimes we see small ones referred to as "shrub rakes," because they are narrow and can be used to work under shrubbery. They have long tines, spread out and without a pulling edge on them like rakes. The plastic ones are gentler on plants.
As much as you can, deliver compost close to an area you wish to cover, using a wheelbarrow or even large scoops. The less distance you have to pull compost, the better. We tried to find something online with illustrations of what we are talking about, but they all seemed to be heavily into shovels. Just take a trip into the lawn and garden department of hardware or home improvement stores, and hopefully you will see a tool that will work better for you.

Swizzle Snowflake Mosaic Ornament
By: Dayton Allen for Diamond Tech
Help the light glisten off your Christmas tree with this Swizzle Snowflake Mosaic Ornament from Diamond Tech. This colorful homemade Christmas decoration is a great way to add some color to your tree or liven up a packaged gift. You could even attach a photo to the center of the snowflake to make a lovely hanging frame for grandma or grandpa. The best thing about snowflakes is that they can be out on display for all to enjoy throughout the winter!
- 2 Wooden Snowflake Ornaments (Purchased at Local Craft Store)
- 1 pkg. Jennifer's Mosaics™ Glass Mirror Red
- 1 pkg. Jennifer's Mosaics™ Glass Mirror Green
- 1 pkg. Jennifer's Mosaics™ Glass Mirror Gold Tapestry
- 1 pkg. Jennifer's Mosaics™ Glass Mirror Silver or Silver Tapestry
- 1 Variety pkg. Jennifer's Mosaics™ Glass Wiggles
- Jennifer's Mosaics™ White Grout
- Jennifer's Mosaics™ Wheeled Glass Nippers
- E-6000® or any other mosaic adhesive
- Hot glue gun & glue stick
- 1 Sheet Foam Core
- Bowl
- Mixing Spoon or Small Plastic Spatula
- Soft Cloth
- 2 Cup Measure
To protect work area, cover with newspaper.
Collect all supplies needed for the project and place them on your work surface.
Place both snowflake panels on top of each other so that the branches of the snowflake are not overlapping.
Use a pencil and mark on the back panel all junctions were the snowflake branches meet the body. The area above the marks will be filled with mosaic pieces; the area below will not.
Work on one panel at a time. Start with the top facing panel. Place glass wiggles on the surface, arrange using the photo or to your desired liking. Glue into place using a small amount of adhesive.
Next, using a wheeled glass nipper, nip red, green and silver tapestry (or silver) mirror into small pieces.
Mosaic a small section at a time by applying adhesive to the back of the mirror and positioning it on the surface. Leave 1/8" space between each piece and from the edge of the snowflake. Use the image for placement and position mirror around wiggles to cover the surface of the top panel. Set aside and allow drying.
Working on the back snowflake panel, begin nipping the gold tapestry mirror into small pieces.
Work above the pencil marks on the back snowflake panel. Apply a small amount of adhesive to each piece of mirror and glue into place leaving 1/8" between mirror pieces and from the snowflake edge.
PLEASE NOTE: Leave center of the back panel free of any glass.
Allow both snowflake panels to dry, following the drying times recommended by the adhesive manufacturer.
When dry, pour 10 oz. of white grout into a mixing bowl. Adding a small amount of water at a time, mix with a plastic spoon or spatula until the grout reaches a thick "fudge" consistency. It is best to add small amounts of water at a time as you can always add more water, but you can't take it out! If grout becomes too watery, add more dry grout, a small amount at a time until the consistency is corrected.
Spread the grout into all of the spaces between the mirror and glass pieces, smoothing all inner and outer edges. Wait about 15 minutes for grout to set.
PLEASE NOTE: For the back panel, be sure to leave the center grout free to make room for the joint attachment.
Begin to wipe away the excess grout using a moist sponge. It is very important to remove any grout on the glass before grout is completely dry. Allow to set for 10 minutes.
Using the soft cloth, buff the glass on both panels to a shine. Allow 24 hours for the panels to dry thoroughly.
To create the center joint attachment, use foam core and cut two 2" circles. Glue together using a hot glue gun. If the ornament does not have a hole for hanging, insert a long ornament hook, wire or paper clip in between the two circles before gluing, for hanging purposes. Take the foam attachment and glue it to the center of the rear snowflake panel, allow drying.
Apply hot glue to the front of the 2" disk and press the top snowflake panel onto the disk. Make sure the branches of the snowflake offset to the branches of the rear snowflake panel. Allow to dry.
- Hang to add sparkle and glitz to your holiday gatherings.

U.S. Edition
We can attribute at least one thing to MTV as it turns 30 this week: "The Real World" may not have been the first reality show, but it was arguably the most groundbreaking. In it, you can find the blueprint for many of the reality formats that dominate today's TV landscape.
It was a simple idea - put a group of strangers together, turn on the cameras and see what happens – that yielded an addictive, engaging result. The show became a sensation, a part of our cultural consciousness that gave Generation X a rallying point and a shared experience.
I can still rattle off the names of nearly every cast member from the first 10 seasons. I can tell you when and why that famous introduction sentence changed from "seven strangers" to "seven people." I know when producers stopped casting people who lived in the city where the season took place, and when they started forcing the cast members to work together as well as live together.
And sadly, I can tell you when I stopped caring as much about "The Real World"... which was when it stopped being about the real world.
From its outset, the show was a social experiment, and it took on important issues. Race relations, abortion, sexuality, alcoholism. All the sensitive topics that we knew were out there, but we may not have known how to discuss.
In 1994, AIDS was a frightening constant in our society, but one that few people had direct experience with. That is, until "The Real World" producers cast Pedro Zamora, who was openly gay and HIV-positive. Zamora, who worked as an HIV/AIDS activist, used the show as a platform to educate. When he died following the season, President Bill Clinton made a speech honoring Zamora declaring that now, no one could say they had never known a person with AIDS.
Think about it: The sitting U.S. president commented on the impact of a reality show on MTV.
But somewhere along the way, "The Real World" shifted. Yes, there were always parties and alcohol and scandal. But now, that's ALL the show is about. It's permissive debauchery, where cast members are more concerned with hooking up and getting trashed.
Look at pictures of the most recent cast, and then look back at photos of the original cast members. Now tell me if any of those original seven would be cast in today's "Real World." (OK, maybe Eric Nies.)
It's possible that "The Real World" still holds up a mirror to our society, and maybe the generational shift in cast members just brought a different tone to the experiment. But the show that launched a thousand reality series doesn't hold the cultural weight that it once did, and it certainly doesn't challenge our ideas about who we are and the world that we live in anymore.
We're never going to be at a loss for reality shows filled with beautiful people doing wild things. And reality shows won't be at a loss for viewers who want to watch beautiful people do wild things. But there was a time when "The Real World" strived to be eye opening, not just eye candy.
It may be a harsh criticism for such a long-running franchise, but that's what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real.
Notice in the pic the whites are of course the minority. The jews are responsible. F-ing nose full of nickel jews.
Correction: There are four white people and three minorities. The guy sitting next to the black guy is white with a bit of a tan.
If someone took a SHYT in the middle of that table those 7 idiots would fight over who gets to eat it.
The white dude sitting by the chick in the red dress...FLAME-ON!! What a sweet gay smile. And the chick in the red dress doesnt care for the rican having his arm around her. The other white guy and the black guy are making eyes at one another...how sweet.
Just more gayness from MGayTV.
LOL, fernace! Haven't too much of our buds, what's up w/that??? Have good eve! :)
@ Josh H, may I introduce you to tracie! Y'all could have a long, fartful relationship together!! :D
This show makes me gassy
I like these boys. I want all of them to sit on my face.
I think you, like I, just got older and don't really mesh with the new and recent years cast members... In our growth, as we are obviously the same age, since I've watched from the beginning as well; we have just been through all their young and somtimes to us, inane problems and I just don't get them anymore. And yes I have recognized the change in gimmicks that they use to create drama and it's a little too obvious.
The other part of the problem is that cast members on the Real World have become too self-aware of what's expected of them. They've seen the show before and they know what we want to see. It used to be interesting because the hook ups and the drama used to happen more organically. Now, when they get into the house, they bet on who will be the first to have a hot tub hook up.
And the show gave more teenagers bad examples to live up to. Like much of MTV, started out good, then kept going even after it sucked. The lesson learned here: learn when to stop before going over the cliff. Still, the main crime MTV is guilty of is "Jersey Shore", and in particular, Snooki. Never in history has someone so undeserving been so worshipped.
'Buzz Killingham' ~ well you're KILLING my BUZZ! The only one worshipping 'Snooki' here is you! Leave that girl alone and let her make her change... Just dont watch! Is your remote broke... There is so much more in life and around life TO DO then worry about this girl on a little tv show!
Be nice. Speak your mind, but don't tread on my right to do the same. You never know what kind of bad karma may come back on you. Be nice.

The Zip and Ale's Treenest attraction, cheaply considered to be the only goofy attraction at Disneyland
Nobody can figure out what the point of Zip and Ale's Treenest is. It was once a fun place with stuff to do, but rogue whistleblowers had it remodeled to reduce their paperwork load.

HAMSKEA is proud to announce that we've teamed with James Loesch on the original pull-through tension activated release. The Break-Thru is still the best and the most consistent. No other release of this type has as much development and prototype time as the Break-Thru. This release is simple to use and take advantage of the inherent and natural squeezing of the safety to enable the firing of the release. This is also known as a positive safety. Once the safety has been disengaged, all you have to do is pull with back tension until the release fires. Just aim and the arrows go in the middle. Target panic is a thing of the past with the Break-Thru and is the best tool for young developing archers. Just put your kids on this release and watch their scores improve. This release teaches the proper execution of the shot...via back tension. Click here for instructions on how to use the Break-Thru release. |

Aereo, backed by media mogul Barry Diller, could be forced to shut down if the high court rules for the four major television broadcasters, who say the service violates copyright law.
Aereo, backed by Diller's IAC/InterActiveCorp, charges users a low monthly fee to watch live or recorded broadcast TV channels on computers or mobile devices. Aereo, which launched in 2012, does not pay the broadcasters.
The nine justices gave little sign of support for Aereo during the one-hour oral argument, but the bigger concern appeared to be the possible broader implications of a ruling against the company.
Several justices appeared troubled about a ruling that would deal a blow to increasingly popular cloud computing services in which personal files - including TV shows and music - are stored remotely on the Internet on servers from companies such as Google Inc, Microsoft Corp, DropBox Inc and Box Inc.
Justice Stephen Breyer told the networks' attorney, Paul Clement, that his legal argument "makes me nervous about taking your preferred route."
The company's fate was placed in the hands of the high court when Walt Disney Co's ABC network, CBS Broadcasting Inc, Comcast Corp's NBCUniversal and Twenty-First Century Fox Inc appealed a decision by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in April 2013 that denied their request to shut Aereo down while litigation moved forward.

1990 Nissan Truck 2dr Extended Cab SB
I wanted a small truck and the Nissan caught my eye over the Mazda that year. This truck has been to the tip of the Baja and back. No major problems and this 2wd was made to do some 4wdriving. This truck owes us nothing. $12500 back then and we've gotten our money's worth. I hope the next one is as good. I think there must be a record with the same clutch from day one and 15 years later.

Former Catholic priest confesses credit card woes
One former Catholic priest confessed troubles with credit and debt when his salary wasn't enough to cover his expenses in a recent article on Credit.com.
Philip Cioppa, a former Catholic priest, now serves as managing principal and chief investment officer of Arbol Financial Strategies LLC. Before leaving his priestly duties, he made $18,000 a year, but after car payments, life insurance and personal care expenses, he was left with about $11,000 annually.
Cioppa turned to credit when his earnings weren't able to cover all of his expenses.
After serving as a priest for more than 18 years, Cioppa had accumulated more than $54,000 in credit card debt.
The former priest also began applying for multiple credit cards after receiving his first.
"I thought, what could be the harm of having some additional credit cards?" Cioppa said in his Credit.com column. "After all, I had no savings and made very little money, so the cards would provide me with a 'cushion' in times of need. Unfortunately however, I began to rationalize those 'times of need' as a dinner here and there, new clothes and other 'essentials.' "
Cioppa sought help from a nonprofit debt consolidation organization, set a 5-year goal to become debt free and swore off of credit cards.
He paid it off in just over four years, but not until after he was forced to give up dining at restaurants, elaborate vacations and other expenses.
Now, the priest turned financial adviser has been debt free for five years.
"So what is the lesson in my story?" Cioppa said in his article. "No matter who you are, what you do for a living or what stage of life you are in, stop the madness and say 'No' to credit card debt!"

Town Square
Too fast for our mayor
Original post made by Not so fast, Duveneck/St. Francis, on Nov 28, 2007
Web Link
a portion below:
"The Palo Alto City Council's decision this week to initiate potential zoning changes to accommodate Stanford's expansion proposals revealed that at least two council members are concerned the project may be moving too swiftly.
Although Mayor Yoriko Kishimoto and Council Member Peter Drekmeier expressed some misgivings, they joined in the 5-0 vote late Monday night approving Stanford's request to expand its medical center by 1.3 million square feet and shopping center by 240,000 square feet. Four council members did not vote because of potential conflicts of interest with Stanford."
Forget about the state mandate with regard to seismic upgrades of hospitals--this project must be put through the rigorous PA process according to two of Stanford's biggest fans of the city council.
With some luck maybe our mayor can get this on the "Alma Plaza" track--12+ years and still no final solution voted on by the council.
Long live the PA process!!!

A delay will only hurt Palo Alto residents who count on Stanford Hospital for medical attention. The present facilities are full to overflowing, if you need immediate hospitalization you probably won't be admitted to Stanford because there's no room available.

Call her Queen Elizabeth Hurley: Actress to star in US TV show The Royals
Her engagement to former cricketer Shane Warne may have hit the rocks, but Liz Hurley can take her mind off her personal problems by starring as a queen in a new US TV show.
Hurley, 48, has been signed up by the E! network to shoot a one-hour pilot show called The Royals, with filming due to start in New York this week.
Her character, Queen Helena, has been described as a 'couture-clad vixen dripping in diamonds'.
Elizabeth Hurley has been signed up by the E! network to shoot a one-hour pilot show called The Royals, with filming due to start in New York this week. The news comes amid rumours of a split with partner Shane Warne (both pictured above, earlier this year)
A production source said: 'When the show was first mooted, there was no one else we even considered for the role except Elizabeth.
'She is so regal and has such bearing.
'She's the quintessential English lady.
'She has a certain grandeur and dignity and sounds more royal than the royals.'
Meanwhile, Warne, 44, faces an awkward showdown with Liz's notoriously protective ex-boyfriend Hugh Grant when they both arrive in St Andrews in Scotland this week for a charity golf tournament.
Stars' fears for Broadchurch
Those eagerly awaiting the return of ITV drama Broadchurch may want to start lobbying producers as stars David Tennant, Olivia Colman and Jodie Whittaker still haven't signed new contracts.
'They told us they would announce the next series when the last episode aired, but then didn't say anything else,' said Jodie at Marie Claire's 25th anniversary party in London last week.
'I want to be available, but at the same time I can't turn down other projects while I'm waiting.
'David and Olivia are really busy too, and I'm just hoping they let us know soon.'

David Bailey: Picture yourself in a job, son
Photographer David Bailey has shut the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to his socialite son Sascha.
David, 75, who was raised in a working-class East London family, has told teenager Sascha to get a job.
The 19-year-old grumbled: 'I've moved out on my own, which is great, but I'm not getting any help with bills or anything so I needed to take on a job to keep paying the rent.
'I am working in my local pub in Bethnal Green.'

Odfjell has entered into an agreement to sell MT Bow Santos (19, 997 dwt, stainless steel, built 2004 in Japan) with a net gain of $18m. The vessel will be delivered to its new owner, Star Tankers AS (a company owned by Torkel Alendal) in December 2008. Simultaneously Odfjell has entered into a bareboat charter with the new owner for a period of 5 years with options to purchase the vessel. Odfjell Ship Management will be the technical and crewing manager for the vessel. Odfjell has been working on ways to strengthen the equity ever since the damaging Norwegian retroactive tax was imposed last year. This process has become more challenging due to the financial crises. Despite the difficult markets, we are pleased to have arranged the sale of MT Bow Santos, says Terje Storeng, President/CEO of Odfjell SE.

Spurs center DeJuan Blair is scheduled to be deposed next week after a judge ruled he must pay more than $53,000 to Rivercenter Jewelers for merchandise the store allowed him to take on credit nearly three years ago, according to court documents and the attorney representing the jewelry store.
If Blair fails to show on Wednesday or continues to ignore the lawsuit that was first filed in October, the judge could find him in contempt and issue a warrant for his arrest.

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS -- (Marketwire) -- 11/07/12 -- LBi International N.V. (NYSE Euronext symbol: LBI), Europe's largest independent marketing and technology agency, today reports its third quarter results for the period ended 30 September 2012.
Key highlights
* Q3 2012 net sales up 27.3% versus Q3 2011 reflecting strong growth in
regions outside Central and Southern Europe;
* Q3 2012 adjusted EBITDA up 26.3% to EUR 10.1 million vs. Q3 2011 (EUR 8.0 million), EBITDA margin at 16.4% (16.5%);
* Intended public offer by Publicis to acquire all shares of LBI for EUR 2.85 per share announced in September;
* Q3 2012 results impacted by EUR 8.9 million one-off charges (principally transaction cost relating to Publicis deal, accelerated integration of US business and related revision of Mr Youth earn out arrangement;
* Healthy financial position with limited net debt of EUR 8.5 million;
* Positive cash flow from operations of EUR 9.6 million in Q3 2012.
Luke Taylor, CEO of LBi commented:
We are broadly pleased with the progress we have made in Q3. Sales and adjusted EBITDA in the period increased by 27% and 26% respectively. Partly on the back of a sound contribution by Mr Youth's social media marketing activities, strong growth was recorded in the US. The UK and Nordic regions also showed strong growth, while central Europe remained flat quarter over quarter. While these results once again demonstrate strong continued momentum we are cautious on the final quarter. Historically we have benefited from strong seasonal discretionary spend and it is not currently clear if the client budgets exist in Q4 to once again support this behaviour. We are also assuming a degree of disruption as a consequence of the storm damage in New York. In general clients are behaving tentatively and visibility has deteriorated slightly relative to typical levels. It should however be noted that in October, we saw a marked improvement in new business activity following a relatively quiet summer period in the run up to and during the Olympics.
Of course the most notable achievement in Q3 was the agreement we reached with Publicis Groupe on the intended public offer for all outstanding LBi shares. This agreement represents the successful conclusion of our corporate transformational plan and delivers an excellent platform for further consistent growth and service expansion under the wings of Publicis. We are delighted and look forward to work together when the transaction will be completed.

The widespread success of cloud computing is driving the DevOps revolution in enterprise IT.
