Voyage to Jersey
... aluminum mesh designed to leave an impression one could use as a grid for a mole map!
The ferry was much like any other ferry, quite full for the one hour forty minute trip.

Rainy turned sunny Monday
After a steamed up bus ride we arrived in Gorey to be rained on and be blown about. We took refuge in a local sea front cafe for numerous coffees and plenty of useful conversation. We walked up to the castle, but didn't go in as it was too windy and wet.
back down on the harbour front we decide on a fish lunch, after Mac dried his hair under the loo hand dryer! The sun came out and the wind dropped so a we went for a ...

A good start to our stay in Jersey.
Vale do Lobo, The Algarve, Portugal
I first visited Vale do Lobo 23 years ago and have returned every year, bar one. 14 years ago we spent an indulgent couple of months there, between jobs, during which time we investigated the possibility of making Vale do Lobo our full time base and running a business from there. Although we didn't follow it through then, I have never given up on the hope of retiring there. In 1995 I was asked to write an article on Vale do Lobo for a magazine. So, 14 years on, are ...

LOOKING for: Chicken Kiev
I am preparing dinner for 8 for my son and his friends before their formal Christmas dance. I would like for the main course to be Chicken Kiev. Does anyone have a good recipe that could be finished in the oven or held in the oven for 20-30 min while they are eating appetizers?
I haven't made this in decades. Yes, you can hold it in the oven for a while. I've also used minced fresh tarragon in lieu of chives:
CHICKEN KIEV (serves 6)
1/4 to 1/2 lb butter
1 to 2 TBL chopped chives
3 whole or 6 halved chicken breasts, skinned & boned
Salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
2 large eggs
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup flour
3 cups fresh bread crumbs
Oil for deep frying (I didn't deep fry, just skillet fried)
Cream the butter with the chives. If unsalted butter is used, beat in salt to taste. Chill briefly. If the breast pieces are small, use the lesser amounts of butter & chives. If quite large, use the greater amounts.
Place the chicken between sheets of plastic wrap & pound lightly with a flat mallet to make them larger. sprinkle w/salt & pepper.
Put 1 1/2 to 3 TBL of filling in the center of each chicken breast. Fold the edges over to enclose the filling. Place the stuffed chicken breasts briefly in the freezer before breading them.
Beat the eggs with the water in a flat container. Dip the stuffed breasts frist in flour to coat well, then in the egg mixture, coating all over. Finally, roll them in bread crumbs.
Cook in deep fat until golden brown & cooked through, 10 minutes, more or less, depending on the size of the stuffed pieces.~~Craig Claiborne
I received a Cooks Illustrated magazine last year that has a "Better Chicken Kiev" recipe. It IS simpler and wonderful
"No Fry-No Leak" method.(BTW I have already typed this once and lost it somehow, so here goes again) The Herb Butter is to die for!
Herb Butter
1 stick unsalted butter softened
1 TBS minced Shallot
1 TBS minced fresh parsley leaves
1/2 tea minced fresh tarragon leaves
1 TBS juice from 1 lemon
3/8 tea salt
1/8 tea ground black pepper
Mix together until thoroughly combined. Form into 3 inch square patty..wrap tightly and refrigerate about 1 hour.
4-5 slices white sandwich bread (I rarely use white but
always use fresh.
salt and pepper
2 TBS vegetable oil
4 boneless skinless breasts tenderloins removed
1 cup AP flour
3 large eggs, beaten
1 tea dijon mustard
Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position; heat to 300 degrees. Process bread to coursely ground crumbs (about 3 1/2 cups) Add salt, pepper and oil to crumbs and mix until evenly coated. Spread on rimmed baking pan and bake until golden brown and dry. About 25 min, stiring twice. Should have 2 1/2 cups.
Prepare Chicken by starting on thinest side of cutlet, slice lengthwise almost in half. Open to create a single flat cutlet. With the cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap, pound to 1/4 inch thickness. Take your Herb butter and divide it for each cutlet. Place butter in bottom of cutlet, and bring bottom up and sides in like a burrito, and roll it up, sealing edges. Refrigerate uncovered about an hour so the edges seal.
Adjust oven rack to mid position and heat oven to 350. Place flour, eggs and crumbs in seperate plates, season each adding mustard to eggs and beat. Dredge chicken in flour, then coat with egg mix, then press gently into the crumb mix so crumbs adhere to all sides. Place on wire rack over rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with all breasts.
Bake until thermometer reaches 160 degrees...40-45 minutes, resting 5 min before serving.
I have abreviated the directions some....the magazine is very thorough with their directions and I absolutely love it. I have prepared these and frozen them to feed 25 people on a RV trip or just made them ahead for an easy company meal that is baked rather than fried. Hope you have good luck with it.

text: We visited with our then 19 month old in January. It was a wonderful trip! We also have two older children, so our touring plans did not change much from pre-baby. She would nap in her stroller and we would take the older kids on the rides she couldn't ride with a rider swap. We also brought a harness so we could let her out of the stroller and she could walk around and not get too far. Keep a sippy cup with you to refill as needed and I would recommend bring child sized fork and spoon, as the ones provided as Disney are way too big for little ones. If your little one will only sleep in a crib, I would recommend renting a full sized crib from A Baby's Best Friend. Resorts only offer pack n plays and this can be uncomfortable for a long stay. We really appreciated the full size crib and mattress. Other than than, I think just take it slow and enjoy!

I stayed in one of the cabins and loved it. The couch in the living room and mini kitchen was great for people who want to eat on a budget and relax at their accommodations. I loved the location of the B&B, which was off the highway, but quiet. I liked that the staff left breakfast for the next morning in my fridge, so I could take off as early as I needed to. My only complaint is that I did not care for the breakfast selection I received. I ended up buying my own food for breakfast. If the breakfast were improved, it would have been perfect.

Thank you for sharing a review! I'm happy to tell you that we are very close to reaching for what would have made it a "perfect" stay for you! Last pieces of equipment for our new Breakfast Hall kitchen are being shipped now. Soon we will debut our new full, hot buffet breakfast in the new Breakfast Hall: eggs, sausage, potatoes, fresh fruit, a yogurt "bar," oatmeal with fixings, homemade breads and muffins, cold cereal and toast, locally roasted coffee, an array of teas, and four juice choices. I hope you'll enjoy the new breakfast when you stay with us again!

I recently spent 3 nights at the Alaska Garden Gate Bed and Breakfast. It was great. The room was very comfortable, clean and quiet. The property is well maintained. It was a little over an hour drive to Talkeetna where we did some sightseeing tours. It is also a little over an hour's drive to the Matanuska Glacier. Anchorage is not a far drive either. So, the B&B is located in an area where you can easily travel to sites on very scenic roads. The host, Karen, could not have been more accommodating. She has plenty of suggestions for things to do while you're there. Breakfast, which was prepared fresh at the B&B, was left in the refrigerator in the room each afternoon so that you had it for the following morning. This way you are able to heat and eat whenever you'd like! Some days omelets and muffins, some days quiche and banana bread. All were delicious! The room had a coffee maker too and fresh ground coffee and filters all ready to go. I felt like I was at home, with none of the work! Stay at this place, you will not be disappointed!

I've been to the Garden Gate B&B twice now and very much enjoyed my stay each time. It is an especially good location (at a good price) if you are interest in sightseeing places North of Anchorage in the Mutsu area.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience! We are centrally located to the many activities to do around Palmer and Wasilla, in our area called the Mat-Su. We're happy to share info about how to get to hiking, rafting, flightseeing, ATVing, dog-sledding, birding, museums, restaurants...There's plenty to do to keep visitors going for a week or more!

The room was large and had lots of country charm. The bed was comfy and relaxing after a long day of traveling. Could not use the fireplace as it was too warm. While there, Palmer was having a heat wave! A continental breakfast was in the refrigerator (Quiche) to be heated the following morning. We didn't care for it, as it had spinach in it, but we ate the bread, banana, and drank the orange juice. Karen, the innkeeper, was very nice and helpful. She also suggested a great place to eat and have dinner. It's called The Noisy Goose I believe. A lot of the locals go there and the food is delicious. DH had the Halibut fish & chips, and thought it the best he had in a long time.

They are conveniently located near major roads. We were worried about noise at first but it did not turn out to be a problem at all. Our room was in the lower level of the main house and was well appointed with everything you might need. The wifi worked. We used the oven to heat up the quiche we were provided for breakfast. It does not have a sit down breakfast spread but the provided quiche, bread, yogurt, banana and juice was fine for us. We would stay again if we were near Palmer.

Large King bedroom with jacuzzi/shower. Second Queen bedroom has a bath with tub/shower. Also spacious living room, kitchen and dining. Great for families or two couples who want to enjoy time together, but have two private bedrooms as well. Private entrance and deck have wooded and mountain views.
Bedroom and Private Bath Suite. Queen bed with single bunk above, and also two sets of single-single bunk beds. Economical private suite offers value for families or singles traveling together. If you don't need your own kitchen and living room, as in our Cottages and Apartments, you can stay for less at our beautiful B&B in our new Bedroom/Bathroom Suites..

Electrolux EI24ID30QB IQ-Touch 24" Black Fully Integrated Dishwasher - Energy Star (View all from Electrolux)
over 800 reviews
We are thrilled
"I never thought that I'd buy an appliance from a dealer 900 mikes away, but it looks like I am in good company! I first saw your store in person, since my son and his family live only two mikes away from your store. And then I found you online when I was trying to compare brands and features of a high-end under counter ice maker. We are thrilled. And your salesperson helped me compare various features to get just the right one. It arrived in perfect condition. We are delighted and will definitely be shopping for other appliances as needed, especially since we saved almost 20%!! Great concept and good people to do business with. Thanks!"
Excellent buying experience
"I really liked my experience with your company. 1. Your price was very competitive with other companies locally and on line. 2. Free shipping to my front door. 3.

We were all super excited - we saw sharks (a species that only 108 have ever been spotted and we saw 3!), burnt sausages (incredible) and penguins, as well as many Nemos and Dorys.

Has anyone here built a fireplace surround?
If you have a surround, how is it attached to the face of the brick?
If you put drywall up, does it have to be a special type? How is it attached to the brick?
I'm doing a surround now. Gas fireplace insert slides into framing with about .5" clearance. The surrounding sides and top are cement hardbacker board .5 thick that is screwed to framing. I am finishing the surround with multicolored slate tiles that I have cut from 1'squares. Almost done, looks excellent!
oceanna,as you face the fireplace, is it flush with the wall it's set into?
What are you starting with FP-wise--masonry, insert, stove?--and is there anything around/on the brick--now?
What do you want to get to (style, materials, etc.)? Do you want to cover all the brick? (I ask because that's not allowed here--firecode.)
Thanks Bignich! How was the framing attached? Did you by chance take pictures as you did the job that you can share?
Thanks Maggie! No, the face of the fireplace, which goes all the way to the ceiling is brick and it stands out from the wall one brick thick. There is an arch on the fp that I want to remove. My end goal is to have a somewhat traditional looking fireplace. I'd like to face around the opening with tile of some sort (ceramic, marble, granite), and have a wooden surround with a mantle. I want to cover the hearth with tile as well. I'll probably leave the brick all the way up and I'd like a second wooden piece above the mantle if I had my choice -- but another option is to wallboard it the rest of the way up.
Here is a picture:
The following link discusses covering over a shorter brick FP, but it has some instructions I think might help get you thinking about how, with some adjustments for the height of your facing, you could design some framing.
It also has a section on covering the hearth, I believe.
I have to feed the dogs now and do a little painting. When I come back later on tonight, I'll try to describe to you what I did to mine. It won't be exactly the same situation, but maybe it will help you brainstorm. Wish I had a camera, so I could show you.
Can you tell me a little bit about the rest of the room--the decor and furnishings, I mean? I had some finishing ideas, but then I realized--I have no idea what kind of room they're going into!
Thanks, Maggie! There is a post about my living room showing pictures here:
I'm open to ideas and suggestions, though not overly endowed with money or strength or woodworking skills. But I can strong-arm my son into helping sometimes. :-)
There is another discussing style for my fireplace here:
Here is a link that might be useful: Link to fireplace
Love the furniture. Love the fabric.
As for the cosmetic finishing of the FP, I'm seeing William Morris tiles. Yes! The room cries out for them! Or *something* from the Arts & Craft movement, or general Victoriana.
Check out the fireplace sets (vertical facings) at the bottom of this page:
But also go to the home page to the link for William Morris wallpapers--I'm pretty sure I had a site bookmarked for William Morris tiles. I'll try to find it.
It was very late here on the East Coast when your post went up. (Not criticizing, just saying...I'm very naughty for staying up so late.) I'll post tomorrow a recap of how I did mine. I don't have experience or strength, either. I think there's a way to work this out with your FP--and your son ;-).
P.S. So far as what to exchange the carpet for in a house with five dogs, there's only one answer, and I'm surprised you didn't think of it: Stainless steel! ;-) So says the mommy of a cat, a Golden Retriever, and a Lab.
Those are great tiles, Maggie. I frequently watch the art nouveau tiles on eBay. I should probably mention though that I live in a late '70s tract home -- not a thing antiquey about it. So whereas I have my antique furnishings I get a bit nervous about resale doing something to the fireplace beyond strictly traditional. Maybe I shouldn't feel that way? As it is, I'm kind of straddling the line putting Victorian furniture in a "modern" house with not a thing to brag about in terms of mouldings, windows, or whatever other charms the older houses have.
I'm a naughty west coast nightowl. So I post at strange hours.
Thanks for the compliments on the furniture and fabric. Mohair gives off a delicious sheen of color. However, I'm finding it challenging to know what to do around that deep tomato red. Even the gimp braid on the couch and chair don't go with it. My son saw them for the first time today and that was his first remark, that he didn't like the gimp braid which is true red. I don't like it either, but the two pieces were just professionally done and I hate to rip out all those tacks (leaving more holes in the frames) and doubt sincerely I could ever find a braid color that goes any better. I've even thought about putting in a tack between every tack to hide the color of the braid (more holes).
My son also said "I like the brick arch." That may well translate to "I don't want to do the work." lol!
I've just got this bizarre thing going in that room. Now bizarre things are interesting. They can turn into dynamic glamour or hideous mistakes. You walk a thin line with them. The sofa and chair are here to stay, so I'd better find a graceful way to decorate around them that is not too odd for the age and style of my home. Not so easy, I'm finding.
Haha on the stainless steel! Perhaps I should take a cup of dirt from the back yard to the carpet store and match it. I'm still not sure what to do with that floor but hate my current carpeting color. It has grey undertones and here we live in 9 months of rain and grey every year. I hate grey in the decor. In Phoenix I might learn to like it, but it's my least fave color here.

What is this pond plant?
We have a large mud bottom pond (110' x 50') that is coming back to life after the previous owners put herbicide into it. Last summer there was a healthy clump of red ludwigia that spread slowly, and some kind of grass that has extremely sharp stems or leaves.
This spring I noticed a big clump of something new. I thought it was algae at first but i don't think so. It's not small pondweed--that has leaves like narrow blades of grass and this has just hair-like leaves. Or whatever they are. It is rooted in the bottom, I guess (hard to see) and frogs and fish seem to like it to hide in.
This little branchlet is about 5" to 6" long total. I've looked all over the internet and couldn't find anything that looked just like it but there are a lot of photos of stuff that don't show a single plant or branch, so it's hard to tell.
Looks like it could be a weak Cabomba
if it is then lucky you.. it is a pretty good oxygenater and a fine spawning mat.
thanks---but I think it has a different branching habit than cabomba. There are a bunch of stems (?) at the end of a stem, and then one of those will end in a bunch of new stems. The multiple stems grow from the same point, not from different points along the stem. I don't know better how to describe it better--sorry!

Tibetan authorities have warned thousands of regional officials they could be sacked if they are found to have failed to safeguard stability in the restive area or fled their posts at 'critical moments', a local newspaper reported yesterday.Tuesday, 7 February, 2012, 12:00am
When her best friend died from leukaemia last year, Ran Jing made a promise to herself; she would travel to Tibet as soon as she graduated from high school. Her classmate had been a Buddhist, and it had been her dream to see Lhasa.20 Nov 2011 - 12:00am
Lack of natural resources a serious problem for Tibet
Tibet has been a part of China since before the Tang dynasty. It covers a huge area, but has no natural resources, such as coal, oil and natural gas. PetroChina has drilled several oil wells there but no actual oil production was recorded.4 May 2008 - 12:00am
People from western countries should go to Tibet to see for themselves the progress the Himalayan region has made over the past five decades, Tung Chee-hwa, a vice-chairman of the nation's top advisory body, has urged.29 Apr 2008 - 12:00am
I was converted to the Tibetan cause when I heard the Dalai Lama speak in London in the 1980s. His modesty, reasonableness and obvious moral integrity made a profound impression.
My views were further formed when I visited a Tibetan refugee reception centre in Nepal in 2003 and met refugees who had just crossed the Himalayas to escape from Chinese-ruled Tibet.1 Apr 2008 - 12:00am
Tang Siu-wing, 50, believes the riots in Tibet and other provinces will be a thorn in the side of the central government until at least the Olympic Games24 Mar 2008 - 12:00am
The demure-looking Woeser seems like anything but a threat to the Chinese state. Yet the government has banned the Tibetan writer's books, sometimes restricts her movements, and last summer shut down her two blogs.3 Jan 2007 - 12:00am
Tomorrow's opening of the Qinghai-Tibet railway has stirred a new wave of demonstrations among pro-independence Tibetan groups that fear the link will increase migration of Han Chinese to the region, making Tibetans a minority in their own homeland.30 Jun 2006 - 12:00am
Plans to celebrate for the first time on Indian soil the takeover of Tibet have been unveiled by the Chinese embassy in New Delhi.
Embassy spokesman Li Hubing said a week-long Tibetan festival would start on September 6 to mark the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Tibet Autonomous Region.29 Aug 2005 - 12:00am
A leading official with the Foreign Affairs Committee of the NPC expressed 'strong indignation and condemnation' over the anti-China resolutions on Taiwan and Tibet adopted by the European Parliament on April 12.20 Apr 2000 - 12:00am
Tibet had seen 'earth-shaking' progress in its economy and human rights under Chinese rule, Beijing said yesterday, seeking to dismiss international criticism of its rights record.
The remarks came in a report which is the latest in a series of commentaries and documentaries marking the 40th anniversary of China's occupation of Tibet after a failed uprising on March 10, 1959.17 Jul 1999 - 12:00am

The Magic cold killer
Posted by Reviewer3163208 on Jan 11, 2011
I fully endorse this product. I work in a restaurant and usually when one person is sick at work, the cold makes it way through the entire team. Well, I've been using Oscillo for a couple years now and I haven't had a rough, knock-you-out type of cold or flu in a couple year (knock on wood). The trick is to take Oscillo at the very first sign of any symptoms of sickness.....that first muscle twing or first scratch in your throat. You have to catch it early, take the medicine, and you should/could avoid a nasty cold.
I'm convinced!!
Posted by Reviewer1788256 on Mar 21, 2011
I took this product on an occasion this winter, when I felt the cold/flu coming on (I took probably 1 and 1/2 boxes). It helped me to continue to work and not feel so bad, it helped my energy and shortened the duration of the flu. Took it with B&T, asthma/bronchitis tablets. Didn't end up in the Dr's office for the first winter in a long time!!!
A must!
Posted by Reviewer2155710 on May 02, 2011
We use this regularly to avoid what is going around and it is a great help! Will start taking it once a week as recommended in some books to bouy the immune system and prevent something from coming our way...especially for our child.
would never go with out this again
Posted by Reviewer1232472 on Jul 26, 2011
Take at the first sign of a cold. This is a life saver.....I have avoided so many colds by using this.
Posted by Reviewer3192504 on Sep 19, 2011
Use it all the time when feeling like going to get sick. Works 99.9 % of time! Love this stuff!

Ralph William Clark
|The information about this individual is current as of when his or her last campaign ended. See anything that needs updating? Send a correction to our editors
|Ralph William Clark
Do you have a photo that could go here? Submit it for this profile by emailing us!
|Former candidate for
|Governor of West Virginia
|University of Denver
|University of Colorado
|Campaign website
He previously ran for governor in the special 2011 election, and placed 7th of eight candidates in the May 14, 2011 primary.
Clark has been on the faculty at West Virginia University for over 40 years and currently holds the position of Professor and Chair of the Philosophy Department, and Coordinator of the Humanities Program. He has written about ethics and has an interest in business management and economics.
A native of Exeter, New Hampshire, Clark's family was quite poor as a child and his father's business perennially struggled. Beginning in elementary school, Ralph helped out with odd jobs. Years later, he was valedictorian of Newburyport High School and earned a scholarship for his undergraduate studies.
Clark was Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Denver, where he studied for a B.A. He stayed in Colorado to earn a Ph.D. at the University of Colorado.
He lives in Morgantown with Suzanne, his wife. The Clarks have three grown children and one grandchild. As a hobby, Ralph enjoys repairing old cars, skills he learned as a child while helping his family with expenses.
Clark fell to Bill Maloney in the Republican primary election on May 8, 2012.[1]
Clark's campaign slogan was Low Taxes, Least Red Tape, Highest Ethics.[2]
- Low taxes: "My proposals regarding taxes include:
- lowering the corporate net income tax rate from its present 8.5%, through a series of phased reductions, to something like 4.5%;
- completely phasing out West Virginia's personal property tax on inventory, machinery, and equipment; #achieving significant reductions in personal income and state sales tax"
- Least Red Tape: "As governor, one of my first acts will be to create a blue-ribbon commission whose charge is to "simplify West Virginia." This commission will examine state programs and policies, and rules and regulations, with the goal of finding ways to make state government as user-friendly (even painless!) as possible for anyone and everyone who wants to produce more and better jobs for West Virginians.
- Another of my ideas is to work to achieve greater transparency in government. This will yield an added inducement for government to reform itself in the glare of a much brighter public spotlight. The result will be that government becomes easier for everyone in the state to deal with."
- Highest Ethics: One of my goals will be to change the way that members of the state Supreme Court are selected. Our present system, where justices stand for election as members of a political party, is a highly partisan process that hurts West Virginia in competition with other states. A better system is to have justices appointed - but only if the right sort of ethical climate exists. I will work toward producing and maintaining just such an ethical climate.
- Under my leadership, state government in West Virginia will move toward a day when it no longer does favors for any special interest groups, but instead serves the interest of all citizens impartially. Good government is "government for everyone," which means protecting the rights and interests of all residents in the state - business owners, employees, the rich, the poor, blue collar and white collar, old and young, men and women, black and white, people who possess mineral rights to and people who possess only surface rights. Good government does not cut corners in protecting the environment, or health and safety. It gives adequate help to people in genuine need."
West Virginia was not scheduled to hold a gubernatorial election until 2012. However, elected Democrat Joe Manchin gave up the seat to join the U.S. Senate in the 2010 midterms. Senate President Earl Ray Tomblin, also a Democrat, took over the office as the Lieutenant Governor of West Virginia is a title accorded to the legislator elected as Senate President, and is next in succession to the office of governor.
Clark lost the primary. Republican candidate Bill Maloney won the Republican nomination but fell to Tomblin in the general election.

|Total votes
Clark supported extensive tax reductions, including:
- a phased reduction in the business tax from 8.5% to approximately 4.5%
- completely phasing out property taxes on inventory, machinery, and equipment for businesses
He proposed a blue-ribbon commission called "Simplify West Virginia," dedicated to cutting red tape and regulation in West Virginia.
Clark also intended to reform the state's Supreme Court system, currently run as partisan elections - something Clark argues has led to too much corruption.
His economic platform was called a "New Direction for Capitalism," described as strong free markets reforms with strong ethical underpinnings.[3] One example of that was in Clark's support for a severance tax on the Marcellus shale, provided it was low enough to be "competitive."[4]
Clark backed small increases to licensing and gasoline taxes to support transportation and infrastructure repair as well as a generally higher level of spending on social services; and backed an education plan that favored charter schools, vouchers, and pay raises for teachers.
When he laid out his slogan, Clark said, "Low taxes, least red tape, highest ethics...We can do our darnedest to make government as close as possible to being painless in West Virginia."
Clark has three grown sons and two grandchildren. He and his wife Suzanne, a retired music and second grade teacher, live in Morgantown.[5]

Hello everyone as we know there are allot of new special consoles that accompany current and future Starship variants.
Many of these consoles have very little regard of balance and do a great job of mangling the balance of PVP to obscene levels.
They main purpose of the consoles is to give ships additional abilities with the loss of a single console slot. I feel many of them are just too powerful and provide some of the most powerful and annoying debuffs imaginable.
I think they need to come up with more interesting toys rather than some of the Free abilities you gain from these consoles.
I call them Free abilities as you only lose one console slot and gain a special ability as powerful as a high level Bridge officer power.
For example
Antimatter spread is a Free Sensor scramble and Jam sensors on a Cruiser which wont normally utilise science abilities like this, 5KM Radius is ludicrous.
The Photonic shock wave torpedoes are a free photonic shock wave for science captains yes they require you use Photon Torpedoes but you then dont necessarily require an officer skill to stun someone when you can essentially do it for free.
Therefore I devise we discuss what powers could be added to the game with the new ship variants that we know are coming that will be fun to use and help PvP balance.
Take in to account what we already have and what is considered undesirable by a vast majority of the player base. What we currently have excess amounts of is.
Healing everyone relies on heals its too easy and any additional healing consoles would be a terrible idea.
Stuns Players do not like to be stunned it is just no fun and there are more than enough methods of stunning in the game.
Movement Debuffs Gravity well Tractor beam New Klingon Console we already have ways of locking people down.
Confuses being scrambled is not fun there are enough confuse powers already out there and many respectable players realise some confuse are simply too Powerful to even use.
My suggestions for what future consoles or devices that comes with future variants include.
Photonic Holomatrix disintegrator something along the lines of destroys all photonic fleets within 5KM this would work in PvE when the NPC uses photonic fleet and I think would work well as a counter to the Photonic armada problem many face in PvP.
Crew Sunglasses Reduces the effeteness of subnulonic beam. (Think of it SNB is a crew stun if they wear sunglasses they are harder to stun.
Evasive pattern we could have a console that temporary provides movement enhancements. These would not affect ships flight speed as we have abilities that do this but could increase turn rate for like 3 seconds or improve reverse speed.
Reroute power from life support could be repairs all sub systems and counters disables but reduces your damage resistance and crew resistance.
What Consoles that wont hurt PvP balance and dont mimic other powers can you come up with?

Well even though the enhanced plasma manifold is basically an eps power transfer power for shields and aux I would hardly consider it a game changer. It comes off the tier 1 science vessel.
Not all of them are so bad but this new kdf graviton pulse generator seems be the most deadly right up there with the ams.

Has not the fix for AMS come in or is inbound>
And having been Graviton Pulsed, yeah its annoying but no more than the AMS is or being Harpenged.
You lose some speed, a lot of turnrate and your engines may go offline for 20seconds.
Buff your shields and hull to max if possbile
POP a speed boost or engine boost and run for 8 seconds maybe little more.
Like AMS I only found it annoying when stacked on me.

I think a console that would cause plasma torpedoes to leave a trail of warp plasma like an EWP heading to it's target would be pretty cool.

I wouldn't mind if these consoles had a extra power drain requiremnet that allows for unimpeded use on the vessel of which they belong but has a minor drain that stacks slightly the more you put these consoles on a single ship.
Otherwise I do find some to be deadly and they will become popular but none seem over powered to me.
Granted this outlook may change as they are tested and whatever combo's arise that they can be used in become more prevalent.

However, a few of them share another thing in common: when they turn 15 they become vampires, "Blue Bloods." And another group, the Silver Bloods, wants the... Read More »

I really liked this book and I thought that it was very good, so I've decided to read the whole series. I'm currently on the sixth book, Lost in Time, and I love it too. It's got a lot of great suspenseful parts that will stop you from ever wanting to put the book down. This book is great for anybody that likes these kind of supernatural things.
Liked it enough to start reading the entire series, so thats something. The mix between modern day life, real life history and mythology was nice.
A unique idea, decent plot and poor execution. The beginning, awkward and flat, might have been overlooked, but the neglect of pacing, dismal attempt at third person, and major plot points that were tossed in like asides made this book unbearable. While I'm curious where the series will go, the idea of embarking on another journey with this author, I find unpleasant.
this was my first book about vampires. i am not really a fan of twilight or the vampire diaries so i thought i should try this first. it was a very well written book. very descriptive and action packed. it was a little bithard to follow with it changing point of views but over all it was very good.
Amazing book! I really enjoyed it! it is an exiting and trilling book! One of my favorites! :)
It has a very interesting mix of mythology and modern life. The characters are very relatable eventhough they are vampires. The struggles that they have are similar to that of a normal teenager. Also the plot at times does sound unrealistiv but then again what can you expect from a paranormal romance series. However unrealistic it is an enjoyable read and actually quite interesting. Also the author had a completely different take on a vampire. In most books a vampire is seen as an undead human going to any lengths to attain human blood but in this the "vampire" is actually a fallen angel who followed lucifer.
Okay, so at first I thought this was a boring book because nothing was happening. But afterwards the book got better and better. Overall it was an awesome book! Can't wait to read the next one... (=
Blue Bloods is an interesting combination of subjects, I like to think of it as vampires meet Gossip Girl. The vampire lore is different from other books and I really liked the author's take on how vampires become undead!
I was skeptical at first as to whether I would enjoy this novel because it was my first vampire novel. But I enjoyed it. It was easy to get lost in their world. Can't wait to read more of this series.
Thi book supplied a nice new twist on vampires and their heritage. It may be in other books, but none that I have read. History dates back to egyptian times, but concentrates on the Mayflower. Really cool. Mixes fiction and history well. I know it peeked my intrest in the whole croatan thing. I read it in 5 hours!
