I like the clear line, the only thing that sounds weird for me is the mixture of German/English for the Freiherrschaften.
I've been commissioned to do another town, and the commissy (commissioner? commissionante? commissionary? ) has kindly allowed me to post a WIP thread here as it develops. The town is built on the banks of a pretty big river, about 200 feet (60 metres) wide, flowing south along the edge of a hilly and mountainous country to the west (hence the feeder stream). The "named buildings" are the ones in black, while the rest of the town is in 75% grey. I'm thinking of putting the town walls, except for the named gates, into 75% grey as well.
Now, the purpose of the map is for a fantasy game map, but I'm going for clarity with this one and I hope the style of the map is going to match the theme closely enough ... it'll be a bit of a challenge, I suppose.
The scale is 1:1200 at 300 dpi ... so this version should be about 1:4800.
Comments, as always, very welcome.
I like the clear line, the only thing that sounds weird for me is the mixture of German/English for the Freiherrschaften.
Yes ... that's me being naughty with the filler names. I don't have all the names for the labels yet, so there may be some sillyness here and there
You might want to clip the contours where they pass through the urban areas - human intervention in the natural grades tends to render contours meaningless.
Is there really a 100 foot (10 story) drop along the north bank of the river in the city?
That strikes me as suprising given how little change there is in the bank of the stream and river - the cliff suggests hilly terrain (with a change in grade and a strong current) while the constant el 1425 river bank suggests a flatter terrain and sluggish current.
A closer examination of the contours suggests that they should be renumbered as 2 or 4 foot intervals rather than 25 foot intervals. At 25' intervals (and 200' for the river width), the flattest areas on your map are roughly the slope of a handicapped ramp (8%) while natural slopes tend to fall closer to 1-2% for flat areas. Most of your city is built on land steeper than a flight of stairs and will require extensive terracing.
You might want to change the fill on the named buildings to make them stand out even more (although I must admit a strong personal preference for shading over hatching that biases my outlook on 'old' style maps).
Given your other work, I am sure that the final piece will be beautiful.
I hope you don't mind my nit picking the technical details.

Well, atpollard seemed to cover the elevation issues and gave me a few insights I hadn't really considered before (thanks for that). The only one that struck me being the land being mostly flat in real cities generally, but not here. Other thing is there are only two gates and the one on the west side seems a bit odd. But could just be a quirk of the city so that is that. No apparent buildings outside of town though.
Apart from that, very nice and clean style. The map looks great. I think the fill on the buildings is fine myself but the outlines of some of them seem a lighter grey than the others? I don't know why that is.
@atpollard - well, I agree it's not completely flat. I was going from my experience of terrain and medieval towns, which are mostly Alpine or Mediterranean, where 100' drops aren't really that unusual. I agree about clipping the town contours though. Hmm. On checking, it might be a bit much - 60' feet would be closer to the 20 metres I had in mind. On the other hand - it is a fantasy town and a bit more contour does make it more ... impressive to visualise. It's at approximately the elevation of Zürich and even Zürich is in a depression that drops approximately 600' from the heights on either side.
I haven't added contours to the river (indicating a drop) because it's gentler than would be visible at this scale, while the valley it has carved is quite visible. The town was built on an outcropping of harder bedrock that served as a natural dam for a long time, before the river broke through eventually (maybe it was a terminal morraine?). possibly I should narrow the river there ... Anyway, while the terrain is mostly rolling and not so steep, defense needs mean that a steeper location is better suited to settlement. Plus I think stair-case streets look really neat
<-- is this approximately the incline that would result?
@Larb - the West Gate is built right on top of the stream, doubling as a bridge and culvert, barring entrance along the stream. I'm going to have to indicate that some more. Hmm. Maybe even carve out a moat along that wall, or something.
Some of the buildings are a lighter shade of grey because they are going to be unlabelled it's just so I can tell them apart at the drawing phase.
Thanks for the thoughtful comments!
Great job on the criticism guys!
Looks wonderful as usual Luca!
And an update. My flu's going away, so I'm getting back to work slowly. I've rearranged the terrain a bit, added the labels, added a moat ... the hatched areas at right are where I'm going to slot in some descriptive elements and a regional map (more or less). The light green border is where I'm going to put a decent border. I've kept several of the vicious gradients, because I think a decent medievalish fantasy city works well with a few cliffs in the middle .
I'm really liking this. There's some very evocative places and names in there, which is what I really dig in a fantasy city. I want to know what Verdeek's up to, and who's in charge of the army, and what the view's like from Longbridge.
Nice job!
Another awesome Lukc production...can't wait to see the finished product.

Football Championship Subdivision playoff qualifier South Dakota State was well-represented on the all-Missouri Valley Football Conference team, with 10 Jackrabbit players named to the honor squad Monday.
Five Jackrabbits earned first-team honors, including repeat selections Zach Zenner and Bryan Witzmann.
A junior running back from Eagan, Minn., Zenner led the MVFC in rushing for the second consecutive season with 1,695 yards through the end of the regular season. Zenner crossed the 100-yard mark in 11 of 12 games and scored a league-best 22 touchdowns — 20 rushing and two receiving. He added 21 receptions for 251 yards out of the backfield.
Witzmann, a senior offensive tackle from Houlton, Wis., anchored aJackrabbit offensive line that helped clear the way for Zenner and allowed SDSU to rank in the upper half of nearly every offensive category in the MVFC. Witzmann has started every game during his four-year career with the Jackrabbits.
Completing the Jackrabbits's first-team selections on offense was junior wide receiver Jason Schneider. The Andover, Minn., native finished the regular season as the MVFC's leading receiver with 71 receptions (5.9 rpg) for 985 yards (82.1 ypg). He also scored 10 touchdowns, putting together a streak of six consecutive games with a touchdown to end the regular season.
Defensively, linebacker R.C. Kilgore and cornerback Winston Wrightwere named to the all-MVFC First Team. A senior from Cottage Grove, Minn., Kilgore ranked among the top tacklers in the FCS ranks with a league- and team-best 119 tackles during the regular season. Kilgore tallied double figures in tackles six times and also led the Jackrabbits with six takeaways during the regular season with four fumble recoveries and two interceptions.
Wright moved up to the first team after earning second-team honors in 2011. A senior from Lee's Summit, Mo., Wright led the team with four interceptions during the regular season, while adding 47 tackles, three forced fumbles and two pass breakups.
Second-team honorees included Vince Benedetto at fullback and defensive tackle Chase Douglas.
Benedetto served primarily as a lead blocker for Zenner and the rest of the Jackrabbit running backs as SDSU averaged 161.4 yards per game on the ground through the regular season. A senior from Crystal Lake, Ill., Benedetto also caught six passes for 36 yards and a touchdown.
Douglas ranked among the league leaders in sacks with a team-best seven during the regular season. The senior from Brandon also tallied 33 total tackles, eight tackles for loss and forced two fumbles.
Rounding out the Jackrabbit honorees were honorable mention selections Austin Sumner, Doug Peete and Je Ryan Butler.
A junior quarterback, Sumner led the league in passing yards with 2,628 during the regular season. The Brandon native completed 59.5 percent (210-of-353) of his passes with 18 touchdowns and only seven interceptions as he set Jackrabbit career records for completions, attempts and passing yardage during the 2013 campaign.
Peete put together another strong season at the defensive end position, ranking fourth on the team with 61 tackles. A senior from Olathe,Kan., Peete added 6.5 tackles for loss, three sacks and an interception.
Butler, a sophomore from Tempe, Ariz., was honored as a return specialist after taking over the punt return duties midway through the season. He averaged 11.5 yards per return, highlighted by an 80-yard punt return for touchdown in a double-overtime win against Northern Iowa.
Selections to the all-Missouri Valley Football Conference Team arevoted on by league coaches, sports information directors and a media panel.Special awards were presented to North Dakota State quarterback Brock Jensen as MVFC Offensive Player of the Year, South Dakota linebacker Tyler Starr as MVFC Defensive Player of the Year and Youngstown State running back Martin Ruiz as MVFC Freshman of the Year and Newcomer of the Year. North Dakota State headcoach Craig Bohl was selected as the Bruce Craddock Valley Football Coach of the Year for the third consecutive season.
South Dakota State, 9-4 overall, defeated Northern Arizona, 26-7, in the opening round of the FCS playoffs on Nov. 30. The Jackrabbits travel to third-seeded Eastern Washington for second-round action on Dec. 7.

When your network of retail locations expands, how do you keep up with all the data that needs to be exchanged between stores, vendors, and other trading partners? At some point, the only solution becomes to automate file transfers. See how Grocery Outlet made the transition with GoAnywhere.
Grocery Outlet is a family-owned company established to provide inexpensive groceries to its customers. It's now the largest deep-discount grocery store chain in America, with more than 200 stores in seven states. Many of these stores are owned and operated by local families to serve their neighborhood's needs, and the company keeps growing.
Between sharing data with store owners and communicating with vendors, Grocery Outlet exchanges more than 30,000 files every day. Steve Tuscher, the Director of IT, realized that having his staff write manual scripts for these file exchanges was time consuming enough, but tracking down and fixing problems when files didn't arrive at their intended destinations was the last straw.
He began looking for a solution that would automate file transfers and provide better error reporting, and after discovering some high-priced options, he decided to take a look at GoAnywhere.
"We quickly replaced all of our internal FTP scripts and within a couple of months, we'd transformed our data delivery across all of our business partners and all our internal systems with GoAnywhere," Tuscher said. "We were surprised that we were able to do that as quickly and easily as we did."
To hear more about Grocery Outlet's success with GoAnywhere, and to find out which feature the team found most valuable in transforming the way they managed their workflows, be sure to watch the video. You can also read the transcript here.

DENVER (AP) -- Peyton Manning threw for 304 yards and three touchdowns Sunday to lift Denver to a 38-3 win over Kansas City that sealed the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs for the Broncos.
Manning finished the season with 4,659 yards, only 41 short of his career high. He finished with 37 touchdown passes, and none will be more memorable than the last two -- circus catches by Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas that turned the game into a blowout.
Denver (13-3) won its 11th straight and leaped past Houston for the top seed after the Texans lost to Indianapolis 28-16 earlier in the day.
The Chiefs gained only 119 yards all day and finished their season 2-14. They will get the top pick in April's draft.

Bully-proof your ministry by stopping
put-downs, power-mongers, and peace-breakers.
Erik was small for his age. He kept to himself.
He wore thick glasses. He came from a poor family. And he was the
perfect target.
Rather than experiencing the glory of God at church, Erik
experienced the terror of being the target of bullying. He spent
his Sundays after children's church running — yes, literally
running. A group of older boys who were generally viewed as leaders
and good kids would come after Erik in a malicious "game" of chase.
Nearby adults dismissed it as a child's game, but Erik ran to save
himself. The chase went on relentlessly, with the boys calling out
threats, insults, and taunts just out of adults' hearing.
Eventually the boys lost interest-not because they couldn't catch
Erik, but because he'd learned how to hide in trash cans,
underneath cars, and in the girls' restroom.
No adult realized what was truly happening until Erik lost his
footing one afternoon and fell face-first on the concrete walkway,
shattering his glasses and suffering a concussion. Rather than lie
on the walkway, in his terror he scrambled to his feet and tried to
run. A young bystander witnessed Erik's fall and saw his shattered
glasses and the blood. She helped him up and escorted him into the
children's ministry director's office, where she cried out, "Why
won't you do something? Those boys chase him every week!"
Jessica was a genuinely happy girl who excelled in school and was
popular among her peers. However, her parents noticed a change in
her not long after they joined a new church. At first, Jessica was
just quiet after church. When her parents asked her how Sunday
school was, she'd shrug. Soon, she began to ask her parents if she
could skip Sunday school and just go to "big church" with them.
They urged her to try harder to make friends.
Jessica's parents felt great relief when, after several weeks,
Jessica appeared excited and happy after Sunday school. Her mother
asked what had happened.
"Stephanie invited me to her birthday party. It's a slumber party!
Can I go? Please?"
Delighted and relieved that Jessica had finally made a church
friend, her mother quickly consented.
But that Wednesday, the phone rang. It was Stephanie. As Jessica
picked up an extension, her mom couldn't help but listen in
momentarily, elated that Jessica's new friend was calling. She was
stunned to hear Stephanie rudely uninvite Jessica to the party,
saying, "It was a joke. Nobody wants you there!"
The face of bullying is shifting, as is the face of the bully.
Bullies don't come prepackaged in the image of the lumbering
schoolyard oaf rolling up his sleeves before pummeling his hapless
victim. Bullies can be attractive, popular, wealthy, and
well-rounded. They can also be unattractive, unpopular,
disadvantaged, and narrow-minded. They can be a mixture of all the
preceding. Bullies can be hard to spot, especially in places where
adults don't expect to find them…such as in our children's
"Bullying is a conscious, willful, and deliberate hostile activity
intended to harm, induce fear through the threat of further
aggression, and create terror," writes conflict resolution expert
Barbara Coloroso in her book The Bully, The Bullied, and the
Schools have come under scrutiny since the events at Columbine
High School, but many churches have felt exempt from dealing with
the bullying issue. After all, church is supposed to be a safe
haven. But the truth is that bullying happens wherever kids are —
regardless of where they are. And the sad fact is, kids who spend
their energy bullying or defending themselves against a bully have
little energy left over to learn — or appreciate — the truths we
want to instill in them. As a children's minister, you can take
concrete, practical steps to thwart all kinds of bullying and to
build a caring community among the children you shepherd.

Subspace relay station
this wiki
Subspace relay stations were structures designed to relay subspace communications. Organizations and species including the Hirogen, the Dominion and the Federation used subspace relay stations as part of networks for communication purposes. These stations could be manned or unmanned, space- or planet-based.
In the Federation, the performance of these stations was tested according to criteria established in STFL spec 0473/111243. If a station was not up to spec, it was repaired on site. (TNG: "Conspiracy")
In 2364, prior to stardate 41775, the Federation starships USS Aleo and USS White Sands tested the stations on the Rigel/Andor link. (TNG: "Conspiracy")
In 2371, a joint effort between the Federation and Cardassian scientists led to the creation of a relay station being built on the Gamma Quadrant side of the Bajoran wormhole to aid communications. (DS9: "Destiny")
A 4.2 gigawatt power generator was enough to sustain such a station. (TNG: "Who Watches The Watchers")

"Many people rely upon the services provided by the local levy and other general state funds. Medicaid appears to be eating up those valuable non-Medicaid services and little is being done about it."

I just finished a 2 color halftone poster, and I got a screen interference moire in both layers.
Here's the print and some detail showing the moire:
moire3 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
moire2 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
moire1 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
I printed with 230 mesh, 40lpi, 15 and 30 degrees, respectively.
The faint ghost striping showed up in each burn (it wasn't in the films).
I'm using thicker vellums than usual from a different supplier.
I double wet coated the bottom of the screen only. Didn't coat the top side.
There was no moire created between the two layers.
Could the problem be one of the following?
1. Not enough emulsion. (Next time double coat both sides.)
2. Underexposed. (Next time increase exposure time.)
3. 40lpi is somehow interfering with the 230 mesh for some strange mathematical reason. (Next time change the lpi to 52 or some other number.)
4. Screen angles bad juju. (Next time try different angles, like 37 and 67)
Or all of the above.
Any help would be very - helpful.

Tonight marks the 100th anniversary of the Montreal Canadiens and I shouldnt give a rats jockstrap.
But I do, because my earliest hockey memory involves Les Habs.
Its a recollection that turned me into a puckhead for life.
Not surprisingly, it involves food.
When I was four or five, my oldest brother gave me a hockey card.
The player was a Canadiens back-up goalie from the 1973 or 74 season.
I dont remember his real name, but I called him Henry.
And he was the coolest guy in the world to me because he had an mmm... ice cream sandwich on his hand (yes, his blocker).
I started staying awake to watch Hockey Night In Canada just to see if Henry and his ice cream sandwich were playing. (He usually wasnt because of some tall guy who leaned on his goalie stick named Dryden.)
With no site of Henry, I soon found myself enchanted by Guy LaFleur.
Seeing Number 10 breaking down the wing, hair flying in the wind, and ripping a wrist shot absolutely wicked!
Gretzky, Lemieux were exciting to watch, as is Ovechkin today, but none were or are as amazing to watch as Guy.
My interest in the Habs ended abruptly around 1979 or 1980 and I cant remember why.
Ive hated them ever since, and thats why 100 years of Habs should mean nothing to me.
But I have to give the Red, White and Blue credit.
Theyve given me a lot fonder memories than the team Ive cheered for since.
Go Leafs go!

I've never seen a list of the "shielded" cards available in the FM lotto. I think I remember someone asking about this before, it may have even been me, and all the answers were very vague, such as - "all the cards in the starters". How about a complete list? I've got some FM saved up and want to determine if FM lotto will help me finish some files.
Is there such a list available? If not, can one of the GMs help me figure out how to compile the list?

Some of what conservatives believe defies logic. OK, a lot of it does. But far too much of it defies the truth. And I can't figure out if they're willfully lying or if they just simply don't understand.
I suspect it's both — their "leaders," if, by leaders you mean craven hypocrites who would sell their mother and infant children if it kept them in power, know the truth but count on the average American to not know it — and believe them without question when they lie.
Hate to say it, but such is ignorance.
Take Sarah Palin, for instance — please. She's on the record (tweeting and facebooking, of course) in support of poor Laura Schlessinger who has been forced to quit her radio show because the evil liberals won't leave her alone about her rabid rant in which she used the dreaded n-word 11 times, totally freaking out her caller, who, inexplicably, had expected Schlessinger to help her with her problem, whatever it was.
Dr.Laura:don't retreat…reload! (Steps aside bc her 1st Amend.rights ceased 2exist thx 2activists trying 2silence"isn't American,not fair")
For the Twitter impaired, here's the translation:
Dr. Laura: Don't retreat — reload! (I'm stepping aside because Dr. Laura's First Amendment rights ceased to exist. Thanks, activists (Sarcasm). Trying to silence "isn't American and it's not fair)
Palin seems to have forgotten 2008, when Schlessinger was "stunned" and "extremely disappointed" that McCain had chosen her as his running mate.
Couldn't the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? I realize his advisors probably didn't want a "mature" woman, as the Democrats keep harping on his age. But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?
That's part of Schlessinger's schtick, y'know — the family thing. That and not whining, which is exactly what she's done since announcing she was quitting the radio show on CNN's "Larry King Live."
Plus, this isn't the first time Schlessinger has mis-whined about the First Amendment. About 12-13 years ago, she went on a different tirade, this one about the dreaded homosexuals. She said gay men and lesbians were aberrations or some such nonsense, and denial of her First Amendment rights ensued, apparently by gay men, lesbians and their supporters exercising their First Amendment rights not to shop with her sponsors. As it was all at about the same time she was getting a TV show, the show was the target. It opened to pitiful ratings, because apparently masochistic losers who like to be berated by shrill non-doctors who once posed nude don't watch much TV, and not surprisingly, didn't last long.
But it pains me to have to remind conservatives, once again, about the Bill of Rights, in general, and the First Amendment, in particular. Here's what it says:
Congress shall make no law …
Hold it right there. That's as far as we need to go. "Congress shall make no law" in this case, "abridging the freedom of speech." Did Congress pass a law kicking Schlessinger off the radio, or forcing her to curtail her bullshit while I wasn't looking?
I didn't think so.
These same conservatives, and it is the very same ones, seem to lack understanding of other parts of that same amendment, too, like the part that says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
That's why they can't shut up about the not-at-ground-zero not-a mosque in New York. And to argue against it, they use all kinds of really fucked up analogies. Like, "What if the United States put a memorial to the Enola Gay in Hiroshima?"
Let me break this down for them, because I know complex ideas are difficult. First, Park51 is not a memorial to the airliners that hijackers flew into the World Trade Centers. Actually, that's all we need to say. Same goes for the analogy wherein Japan would put a memorial to kamikaze pilots at Pearl Harbor, or Nazis put a memorial up at the Holocaust Museum in Washington. Again, Park51 is not a memorial anything. It is an Islamic center that seeks to promote peace and understanding. And those are apparently concepts that conservatives have no understanding of whatsoever.
These ignorances are dangerous, and if they are indeed blind followings of lies and obfuscations of the so-called conservarati, they are even more dangerous, because what other lies can they tell that will be bought lock, stock and barrel by the ignorant masses?
A few days ago, I read an interview with a Teabagger in which he was asked if he'd actually read the Constitution, a copy of which he carried in his pocket. Not really, he said, "but I know my country's history." Really?
That made me cringe. I don't expect everyone to be the history and news junkie that I am, but a little basic understanding sure would be nice. Sadly, that went the way of condiments being mere condiments in school lunches, a product of the right's determination to keep us stupid by destroying any chance at a decent educational system in this country. So far, so good.
Conservatives sometimes, for reasons known only to them, like to deny that the United States is a democracy. "It's a republic," they say, which I think somehow implies that the people have all the power and the officials they elect, well, fuck them and the people who voted for them. Let's try out some definitions:
A republic:
A state in which the supreme power rests in the body of citizens entitled to vote and is exercised by representatives chosen directly or indirectly by them.
A democracy:
A government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system.
I don't see a heckuva lotta difference, except that "republic" specifically refers to the country and "democracy" more specifically refers to the government. Whatever. They're wrong. We are a democracy. And a republic. But to deny the former in favor of the latter is a separatist, militia thing to do — it sets up the basis for an armed insurrection.
Then there's all the nonsense about how keeping taxes low for rich people helps the economy, creates jobs, etc etc etc. Except it doesn't For the period of time since George W. Bush got his tax cuts for the rich passed by the same methods the Republicans now condemn when Democrats do it, there as been zero job growth. Zero. Zip, zilch, nada. Big fat nothing. Didn't work, idiots. And yet, in the face of the obvious evidence of complete failure, the Republican leadership keeps saying it works and the ignorant masses keep believing them.
Speaking of taxes, we pay one of the lowest tax rates in the world, and the conservatives say we pay too much. That's because they don't want to pay any taxes. And corporations — good lord, they pay hardly any taxes on the billions they make, mostly because they hide their money in offshore tax shelters. But the conservarati don't talk much about that.
And let's not even get started on global warming. Sure, there's a natural element to it. But we've helped it along quite nicely, thank you. And just because it has a natural element doesn't make the idea of a world several degrees hotter than it is now and an ocean several feet higher than is now something that's no big deal. Just ask the mastodons.
About 1,000 words or so back, I noted that some of the things conservatives believe defy logic (Obama is a socialist, secret Muslim who wasn't born in the United States comes to mind), but I haven't really addressed any of those. Five or six years ago, however, a list circulated that pretty much covered it (you can add whatever more modern ones you want). The gist of the list is this: IOKIYAAR.* Here it is:
- Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness and you need our prayers for your recovery.
- The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.
- Government should relax regulation of Big Business and Big Money but crack down on individuals who use marijuana to relieve the pain of illness.
- "Standing Tall for America" means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.
- A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.
- Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.
- The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
- Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins unless you run for governor of California as a Republican.
- If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.
- A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then demand their cooperation and money.
- HMOs and insurance companies have the interest of the public at heart.
- Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.
- Global warming, and tobacco's link to cancer, are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.
- Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
- A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.
- Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
- The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's driving record is none of our business.
- You support states' rights, which means (former) Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have a right to adopt.
- What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.
- Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.
* IOKIYAAR: It's OK if you are a Republican.

Parliamentary Reform in Britain

"As long as i can still be massively gay all the time i don't care what happens."
"Once, I raped a whole load of girls, you know, just to see if i liked it, but please, don't tell my mother - she'd just die if she ever found out."
Parliamentary Reform in Britain happened in Canada in 1942. It is the reform of all things Prime Minister-y. It is also the third evolution of Electrode, the ball pokemon. Reform began because many people wanted it to. It ended on a similar basis. Asked about Parliamentary Reform, a British historian with the name of Mr Python said, "I have no idea why it happened at all! This country was great until that bloody lot of foreigners, commoners and Simon-Schama-loving nancy-boys got the vote!". Mr [sic] Schama himself [sic] says, "Look, we're queer and we're here, so get used to it"
Why people wanted reform
In 1792 the Italians (who are actualy the French with mustaches) went nuts and killed loads of people. They designated it the Second Nintendo Revolution. Among the deaths were several kings, one of which being the King of France Louie Louie (named after the popular song by the Kingsmen).
The Britonish people generally hated the French, and not willing to be outdone they decided to kill some people too, and maybe get some votes while they were at it. Vera Britain and her then husband Liam Gallagher were very keen on reform because Manchester was considered by the aristocats, who ran Britain at the time, an awful, smelly, scum-filled place (much as it is today) which frankly, didn't deserve to be able to choose who the Prime Minister was.
The rest of the UK, especially Jeremy Bentham, wanted reform because they were hungry, whether this was for bread or for the blood of virgins has never been established. The middle classes were not only hungry but very intelligent and noticed that only people who were related to the king or the Prime Minister seemed to be able to vote, they subsequently started asking for the franchise to be increased form 8 people to around 28 to include the whole of their class.
There were also some other reasons, which Benjamin Disraeli knows about, but he won't tell anyone, the bugger.
The other bad thing, other than the awful smell of Corinne Bailey Rae's nuts, that was happening in Britain in the 1830s was election corruption. This was the process of those with the vote being bullied by singing sensation Chairman Mao in order to make them vote for the We Hate Homosexuals Party. This got so bad during the 1828s that a special police force, the meat flap brigade, had to be created to restore order. There were 495.6 reports of electoral rape/forced kitten huffing during that year alone.
The Whigs
The Whigs were a political party in the 1800s. They now exist under the title New Labour but have continued their hardline policy of "Ridiculous wigs for all" right into the 21st century. In America they are known as wiggas.
Whigs were in fact the party that most wanted reform, their memebership being drawn exclusively from the bloody foreigner and gay classes. Their leader, David Furnish, was obsessed with both anal wigs and utilitarianism, but tragically suffered from brain failure and was asked to resign as party leader. His shoes were filled by latter-day Whig devotee David Cameron, as well as with turds, the origin of the phrase that a vague candidate is "as slippery as a shoe-full." He took the party in a new direction, renaming it New Whigism. It was this decision that would prove to be key in Reform's eventual success.
Benjamin Disraeli wasn't a Whig, neither was the Zombie James Brown.
The Tories
The Tories still exist today. Back then they were right miserable gits, a tradition held feverently right up to the current present now of contempry society. The Tories hated reform, this was because they already had all the money, and did not want anyone else getting their grubby mits on any of all the money. They were inherently simular to the Whigs, the only physical differences were that Tory's wigs were made of money rather than pubic hair (known as public hair in the 1830s) and a third nipple. Really though, the Tories made absolutely no difference to the course of reform, as you will soon discover.
Chartism was a movement that began because, again, some people were hungry. This time however it was certainly for the blood of young virgins. Other reasons were that singing sensation George Michael had recently formed the political party Wham! and everyone hated him. Chartism failed the following morning due to a chronic lack of West End musicals documenting the rise and fall of Chuck Norris.
When evaluating the role Chartism had in the struggle for reform, it is important to consider how drunk you are. The drunker, the better.
Nothing else happened to do with Parliamentary Reform in Britain and the country's political system has never been altered since, despite a slight drop in the number of Tory MPs accidentally strangling themselves during fetish sex.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A new report says President Barack Obama has an advantage over Republican Mitt Romney when it comes to reaching voters online.
The Pew Research Center says Obama has been more aggressive about communicating through digital and social media platforms. During a two-week period in June, Obama's campaign tweeted an average of 29 times a day. Romney tweeted about once.
Obama's team has also been more active on YouTube, blogs and photo-sharing sites.
Romney's digital director, Zac Moffatt, says more is not always better. He says the campaign is working to get voters to engage in an online conversation -- not just to read campaign posts.
Both campaigns are focusing their digital efforts on the economy.

Product Description
Want to meet the man behind the beard? Besides having a popular reality TV show on A & E, and a multi-million dollar business, Phil Robertson has shared his story with thousands of people at churches and public speaking events. Now in his memoir Happy, Happy, Happy: My Life and Legacy as the Duck Commander, Robertson shares his life's journey behind the camera.
It hasn't always been the "good life" for Phil. As a young man he turned to drinking, drugs and wild living to try to fill the emptiness in his heart, in the process causing hurt to his young wife and family. It wasn't until he turned to Christ and dedicated his life that things began to turn around, and he became the entreprenuer who created a product that changed the duck hunting industry. Happy, Happy, Happy isn't just the story of an American dream come true, it's the story of a changed life. As you read you'll be inspired to believe that God can reach the hardest hearts with His love and truth, and fill their lives with lifegiving purpose.

Publisher's Description
Duck calls—though the source of his livelihood—are not what makes Phil Robertson the man he is today. When asked what matters in his life, he's quick to say, "Faith, family, ducks—in that order."
It isn't often that a person can live a dream, but Phil Robertson, aka The Duck Commander, has proven that it is possible with vision, hard work, helping hands, and an unshakable faith in the Almighty. Phil's is the remarkable story of one man who followed the call he received from God and soon after invented a duck call that would begin an incredible journey to the life he had always dreamed of for himself and his family. In the love of his country, his family, and his maker, Phil has finally found the ingredients to the "good life" he always wanted.
If you ever wind up sitting face-to-face with Phil, you'll see that his enthusiasm and passion for duck hunting and the Lord is no act—it is truly who he is.
If you've watched the exceedingly popular A&E® program Duck Dynasty®, you already know the famed Phil Robertson. As patriarch of the Robertson clan and creator of Duck Commander duck calls, he fearlessly leads his family in a responsible work ethic and an active faith.
But what you don't know is his life before the show. In the pages of this book, you'll learn of Phil's colorful past and his wild road to the "happy, happy, happy" life he leads today. Before the "happy," Phil's passion for the outdoors and wild living led him down some shady paths. As a young husband and father, he became the proprietor of a rough bar and lived a life, as he says, of "romping, stomping, and ripping" for a number of years. He even left his wife and young boys for a short period of time.
Through it all, Phil Robertson has lived his life as a "called" man. Called to live off the land, called to leave a starring role in Louisiana Tech football (playing ahead of Terry Bradshaw) for duck hunting, called to wild living, called to create a new kind of duck call—and finally, called to follow God and lead a life of faith.
In this eye-opening and rousing book, you'll find stories that will shock you, as well as those that will inspire you. You'll get to know the man behind the legend, and you'll come away better for it.

While we don't watch their show, we have a lot of respect for them from what they have written. They aren't ashamed to speak what they believe.

Wyvern of Wye
this wiki
The Wyvern of Wye was a dragon-like creature that came from Wye and later terrorized the West Country sometime during the lifetime of King Arthur. The beast was fought by Sir Cadogan, one of the Knights of the Round Table, who bravely engaged it in combat. The Wyvern, however, was too strong for Cadogan, and it managed to eat Cadogan's horse, break his wand, and melt his sword and visor with fire before Cadogan could escape. The two then had a second, shorter encounter after Cadogan managed to procure another mount, an overweight pony that was grazing in a nearby meadow. The Wyvern bent its head to try to gobble up the knight and his new steed, but Cadogan's damaged, misfiring wand stabbed into its tongue and ignited the fumes from its stomach, causing the beast to explode.

Crews on scene say seven people are in custody as SWAT surrounds a home on the 400 block of Aztec Drive in Security-Widefield.
At least some of the people in custody are believed to be connected to at least two burglaries that occurred in Security-Widefield between 9:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. The burglaries were committed at a home on the 4900 block of Sebring Drive and a home on the 9300 block of Berry Lane. A gun was stolen from one of the homes. It has not been located.
According to our reporter on scene, an officer spotted the suspect vehicle from the two burglaries at the home on Aztec. SWAT was called to the scene and began detaining people inside the house. Five to eight people are in custody; it's unknown if everyone in custody was involved with the earlier burglaries, or if some just happened to be in the home when SWAT arrived.
SWAT is now going through the house to make sure it's clear. The spokesperson for the El Paso County Sheriff's Office tells 11 News they are not leaving the area until they are sure it is safe.
Discovery High School, Widefield Elementary and Widefield High School were put on secured perimeter status while deputies search for the suspects. This has been lifted as of 1:07 p.m. All schools are now operating as normal.
Details are limited right now; we are at the scene and working to get more information.

The Spirit of the Journey
Druidry influences us in many different ways: how we go about our daily activities, raise our children, and interact with others. It also works with rites of passage for the blessing and naming of children, for marriage, for death, and for other times of initiation, when it is helpful to ritually and symbolically mark our passage from one state to another. Within this forum are subforms in which we discuss the ways Druidry touches our lives.

The Philosophers' Roundhouse
Druidry emphasizes the sacredness of all life, and our part in the great web of creation. It cares passionately about the preservation and protection of the environment, and offers a worldview, which is ecological, geocentric, pragmatic, idealistic, spiritual and romantic. It does not separate Spirit and Matter - it offers a sensuous spirituality that celebrates physical life.

The organization Freedom Watch blames the Obama administration for a 2011 helicopter crash in Afghanistan that killed 22 navy seals including one from here in eastern carolina. Freedom Watch founder Larry Klayman laid out the allegations Thursday in Washington.
Seal Team Six member Chris Campbell of Jacksonville was killed in that crash when the helicopter he was riding in was fired on by insurgents. Four airmen from Pope Air Force Base outside of Fayetteville were also killed in the crash.
The Taliban claimed responsibility and said fighters shot down the helicopter. Freedom Watch founder Larry Klayman laid out the allegations Thursday in Washington.
"In perhaps the biggest disaster since 9/11, as far as naval operations special ops operations, these 4 sons and 26 others died in a helicopter crash over Afghanistan, a helicopter crash that didn't have to occur. In fact, they were sent into battle with in an inadequate helicopter and an inadequate pilot and it tells you something about the way this whole thing was structured, that there was an impending disaster with a target on the back of our servicemen," said Klayman.
Campbell was 36-years-old. He graduated from White Oak High School in 1993 and was a member of Seal Team Six.

I have a new article today on the late director Fabián Bielinsky in Film International.
As I note, "the roots of [Bielinsky's film] The Aura go way back in Bielinsky's childhood, to a screening of John Boorman's Deliverance (1972), which so mesmerized the young cineaste that he refused to leave his seat until the management gave him a poster of the film as a souvenir. Over the years, Deliverance occupied almost the entire space in the young director's mind, and it's worth noting that even as he suggested after the success of Nine Queens that he might next like to try his hand at 'a psychological thriller,' the first draft of the script for The Aura was written in 1983, the year he directed the short film La Espera, and graduated from the national film school. The film was in every way darker and more fatalistic than Nine Queens; as he declared from the outset of the film's production, The Aura was designed to please no one but its maker.
As Bielinsky told Jorge Letelier in the film journal Mabuse, 'the [film's] theme is crime, but its structure allows for more discussions because […] I decided to accept a series of brutal and dangerous breaks in the structure, because in a genre film audiences expect a certain type of structure and rhythm according to the rules of the genre in question. I opted to go on breaking those rules, so that things wouldn't happen when they were supposed to happen.' And this, indeed, is precisely what sets The Aura apart from more traditional crime 'thrillers' – it is, at its heart, a study in psychological penetration, gesturing back to the director's early studies in psychology, and his examination of the ethos of machismo in Latin American society.
And it's clear that as an omnivorous moviegoer, Bielinsky knew, much better than most of the people who interviewed him, that Nine Queens had been a work of precise calculation, every bit the same sleight-of-hand trick that the film itself celebrated. Make The Aura first? Not likely. Make a crowd pleaser first, designed to appeal to the widest possible audience, and then, if you were lucky and worked hard, you just might get a shot at a script that had been kicking around in your file drawers since your 24th birthday – a work so dark, so uncompromising, so willfully designed not to please, that it might as well have been Godard's Le Petit Soldat or Les Carabiniers (both 1963), films which represented an outright assault on their respective audiences. And when an unsuspecting critic suggested that someone like David Mamet might be an influence on Bielinsky's work, the director was quick to disabuse them of that mistaken notion.
When David Edwards ventured that Mamet might perhaps have been 'a particular influence,' Bielinsky good naturedly, but firmly, put Edwards in his place, saying that, 'well, you know I was writing ideas like this before I even knew David Mamet existed! Of course, it's flattering to be compared to him because he's such a great scriptwriter and playwright. But, you know, Mamet didn't invent this. There's a whole history of con man movies before he came on the scene. I mean, I think about films like The Sting, Paper Moon, The Flim Flam Man, House of Games, the films of Fellini and other Italian films I saw when I was a teenager.'
So the roots of both Nine Queens and The Aura run deeply into not only Bielinsky's past, but the past of cinema as a whole, and now, with the immense success of his first film, and the American remake racking up acceptable grosses, producers who were formerly unwilling to take a chance on Bielinsky's pet project now agreed to participate. True, he had to cobble together financing from a variety of sources, and especially in the wake of Argentina's financial collapse, everything – not just filmmaking – was a daily struggle, but at length, all was in place, and Bielinsky was allowed to embark upon the dark journey of The Aura which, though he did not know it at the time, would be his last testament as a filmmaker.
If Nine Queens presents the picture of a world becoming undone, a picture, in the words of Michael Chanan 'of a corrupt society, where everyone is conning everyone else, a metaphor for a dangerous political situation on the verge of coming to a head, with a closing scene – as a bank puts up its shutters and depositors clamor for their money – that is nothing short of prophetic,' then The Aura shows the aftermath of that society's collapse, which is now no longer a joking matter, but rather a deadly serious fight for survival.

Behind-the-Scenes: FLOR Makeover (Mood Boards)
Posted by FLOR | Filed under Musings
We had such a great time working with Rebecca and Tyler, the winners of our first-ever FLOR Makeover contest. Their "bring it on" spirit and refined design aesthetic meshed beautifully with FLOR's point of view.
With the clean, white background of their beautiful home, we had a wonderful opportunity to introduce a mix of colors that would tie the rooms, furniture and fixtures together and help define areas as well. So, with that … here is what we created:
The Proposed Layout:
We started with the entry. Rebecca already had a FLOR rug that she and her husband had designed, which we loved (below).
The Entry (before):
We wanted to retain the spirit of their design but update it with textures that were a little more foyer-friendly and could withstand the dirt and foot traffic that area demands. We kept the "+" design from the original rug, but chose FLOR styles Mild Mannered and Straight and Narrow – both have a ribbed texture and use varied yarns to provide amazing camouflaging benefits. Check out the combo in our new design, below.
Then, there was the issue of the long hallway leading into the main living space. We tossed around lots of ideas – from a plush, shaggy wool rug to a multi-colored runner – and landed on a genius custom design using a range of colors and textures. The blend provides not only a stunning focal point and sumptuous mix of textures, but it will also stand up to sprints by the couple's young son and daughter. Our designer, Cristina, came up with this unique Chevron-inspired design using a combination of 2″ strips of FLOR styles Level Setting, House Pet, Rake Me Over, Feelin' Groovy, Shear Indulgence, Fedora and Reverb (see specifics and links below).
FLOR's Entry & Hallway Mood Board:
- Umbrella Basket – Blow up, Umbrella Stand by Fratelli Campana from Alessi
- Coat Rack - 2d/3d Coat Rack by Blu Dot from Hive Modern
- FLOR's Custom Hallway Runner – (2″ strips each of) Level Setting in Black + House Pet in Hummingbird and Hamster + Rake Me Over in Teal + Feelin' Groovy in Sunny and Yellow + Shear Indulgence in Suffolk White + Fedora in Chartreuse + Reverb in Lime.
- FLOR's Entryway Rug – Mild Mannered in Charcoal + Straight & Narrow in Lime.
For the dining area, Rebecca and Tyler wanted a pop of color and a circular shape to mimic their classic Tulip dining table.
The Dining Room & Kitchen (before):
We chose Rake Me Over in a bright pink and custom-cut it as a large circle. The texture will feel delicious on the toes and will also help hide spills should the dog drop one of those yummy table-scraps!
FLOR's Dining Room & Kitchen Mood Board:
- FLOR's Custom Dining Room Rug – Rake Me Over in pink
- Kitchen Pendant – 85 Lamps by Rody Graumans
- Dining Room Table – Saarinen Dining Table by Hive Modern
- Dining Room Chairs – Eames Restored Shell Chairsby Plastolux
- Vases – Morandi Bottle Vases by Canvas
- Table Mats – Pinetti Italian Leather Table Mats by David Mellor Design
- Cutlery- Odeon Stainless Steel Cutlery by David Mellor Design
- Storage Jars – Bodum Glass Storage Jars by David Mellor Design
- Mug - Pantone Ceramic Mug from Apartment Therapy
- Dishes – Walter Gropius TAC Porcelain by Rosenthal
In the living room, which is where the family spends a lot of time together and gathers to watch movies and television, they wanted something super soft and comfortable.
The Living Room (before):
We used one of the über plush styles from our new floresse collection, Manx, and interspersed slivers of Rake Me Over in two shades of yellow to provide contrasting color while maintaining the plush texture. The free-form shape will also complement the serpentine of the new Togo sofa the couple has their eyes on.
Our design and stylist teams also provided a few accessory suggestions to play off of the rug designs we created and continue the modern-with-a-twist theme seen throughout the couple's home.
FLOR's Living Room Mood Board:
- FLOR Custom Living Room Rug – Manx in Gotland Grey + 1/4-tiles of Feelin Groovyin Sunny & Yellow
- Sofa – Togo Sofa by Michel Ducaroy
- Wall Unit/Room Divider – 1950s George Nelson Wall Unit by Herman Miller
- Window Treatments – Ripple Fold Drapery by The Shade Store
- Throw Pillow "Eames Chair" - 1956 in Chocolate and Sunflower by Inhabit
- Throw Pillow "You Are" – You Are in Lime and Chocolate by Inhabit
- Throw Pillow "Let's Make Out" – Let's Make Out in Coco and Oatmeal from Etsy
- Retro Telephone – Citrus Yellow Telephone by Sweet Bella
- Coffee Table – Alster by Ligne Roset
- Wool Throw – Swiss Army Blanket by Deken
- Fire Pit – EcoSmart Fireplace from Remodelista
We were ecstatic to have full freedom to create these one-of-a-kind designs and patterns for our winners and cannot wait to see them in Rebecca and Tyler's home. They were a true pleasure to work with and we hope they had as much fun as we all did here at FLOR.
We will be sure to share the finished look with you all in a future post, so be sure to check back in a few weeks!

Comments On Sep 12, 2013:Lets face it when you do a motor rebuild its hard to keep track of what gaskets you need, this is a must for anyone rebuilding a motor. You are guaranteed to have every gasket needed, and will not be stuck waiting because you forgot to order one gasket!
