Cosmic Girl
Official Video for Cosmic Girl
The video, directed by Adrian Moat, shows three famous supercars driving and racing each other through several highways and mountain roads across a desert landscape from clear day-light to dawn. The cars on the video are a black Ferrari F355 berlinetta, a purpleLamborghini Diablo SE30 and a red Ferrari F40. Jay Kay appears to be driving the purple Lamborghini with Stuart Zender on the co-pilot seat, but the drivers of the other cars are not shown in detail. It has four different edits: Versions 1-3, and the so called 'Jay's cut' version. Before filming, Jay's Diablo had to be shipped overseas for the video shoot. Apparently, the company which was hired to transport the car had a driver that was keen to drive the car. Jay let the guy drive the car, but he was involved in an accident which wrecked the car, rendering the $239,000 car completely unusable. The car that appears in the video was rented from a local collector. The F40 was provided by the Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, who drove in the video as well. While filming, the driver's side window in Jay Kay's Lamborghini was accidentally smashed. Due to the tight timescales involved, the video was still shot, but with the window removed. This is why Jay Kay appears to be driving around the desert late at night with his windows down. Jay Kay mentioned in an interview that the Lamborghini had its windscreen removed to aid with the filming, due to space limitations inside, and the windscreen angle from outside. The missing windscreen can be seen when the Lamborghini overtakes the black Ferrari on an uphill shot. The video was filmed at the Cabo de Gata, in Spain.

COLUMN: Leaders who fought WWII nearly gone
"Peace on earth, good will toward men." That sentiment, so noble and hopeful, rings particularly hollow in Washington this holiday season. Just look at the last few weeks.
House Republican hard-liners torpedoed efforts by their own leader, Speaker John Boehner, to pass an extremely modest revenue bill raising taxes on millionaires. The Heritage Foundation condemned the measure by saying it would "constitute a clear path toward surrender on conservative principles."
What principles are those, exactly? Political paralysis? Chaotic markets? Looming recession? Retiring Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut called the failure of Congress to deal with the fiscal crisis "the most colossal ... act of congressional irresponsibility in a long time," and that's probably an understatement.
Then there is Wayne LaPierre, the head of the National Rifle Association, who responded to the bloodshed in Newtown, Conn., by condemning even the smallest attempt to control high-powered, military-style weapons as a devious scheme "built on lies" to "destroy the Second Amendment."
Apparently the spirit of the season has eluded him as well. Conservative columnist Ross Douthat wrote in The New York Times that "no Stephen Colbert parody of conservatism could match" LaPierre's histrionic rejection of reasonableness.
But those were not the low points. The most egregious example of distrust and downright craziness came early in December when the Senate defeated the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons With Disabilities. This is an international treaty based mainly on the Americans With Disabilities Act that was signed into law in 1990 by President George H.W. Bush. The treaty was negotiated by his son, George the Younger, in 2006 and has been ratified by 126 countries.
The treaty also had the strong support of Sen. John McCain and former Sen. Bob Dole, both severely wounded combat veterans and Republican nominees for president. Dole felt so passionately that he was pushed onto the Senate floor in a wheelchair to witness the debate. That means every living person who ever ran for president on the GOP ticket (we couldn't find Mitt Romney's position) endorsed the treaty. Yet only eight GOP senators voted yes, and it lost by five votes.
The arguments against the treaty were stunning in their deceit and ignorance. Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma said it would empower "overzealous international organizations with anti-American biases that infringe upon American society." Sen. Mike Lee of Utah said religious parents were worried that "a foreign body based in Geneva, Switzerland, (would) be deciding what is best for a child at home in Utah." Former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania implied that under the treaty, U.N. officials could decide to euthanize disabled children.
The message: Don't listen to McCain or Dole or the Bushes. The treaty was "built on lies." Raising taxes, controlling guns, ratifying treaties -- they're all a sinister plot to "surrender conservative principles." Good will? Bah, humbug!
A few weeks after the treaty was defeated, Sen. Daniel Inouye of Hawaii died at age 88. Bob Dole was again wheeled into the Capitol, but he insisted that he walk -- with considerable help -- to Inouye's coffin that was lying in state. "I don't want Danny to see me in a wheelchair," he explained, wiping away tears. Continued...
Then he saluted with his left arm, his only good arm. His right one was shattered by a German machine gun in Italy, in April of 1945. In that same month, in that same country, Inouye lost his right arm after it was mutilated by a German grenade. They met in a military hospital (now named for them) as they recovered from their wounds and formed a lifelong friendship that crossed partisan lines and loyalties.
Perhaps there is a lesson here. Dole and Inouye first served their country as soldiers, not politicians. Their first allegiance was to the nation, not to a party. They bled and almost died for their fellow infantrymen, not their fellow officeholders. And that indelible experience helped shape their approach to politics.
That generation is almost gone now. George H.W. Bush, now ailing himself, was the last World War II veteran to serve as president. With Inouye's death, Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, approaching 89, is the last one left in the Senate. Through the horror of war, those men learned to believe in the national interest, and in one another. They trusted one another and loved one another.
As Bob Dole struggled to his feet and saluted his friend Danny, he reminded us how precious good will is in our national life. And how much we miss it today.

SharePoint AD Administration 1.8.508.0
Have you ever wondered how you can decrease the overall workload of the systems administrator? Or manage OUs or AD without increasing the workload of the systems administrator? SharePoint AD Administration provides the systems administrator authorization to delegate other managers with limited abilities to create, edit, rename, and/or delete OUs and AD properties. These delegated individuals can also have the capabilities to reset passwords, create and manage users and groups, and edit AD profiles from within a predefined OU. By delegating specified managers with limited abilities, SharePoint AD Admin will decrease the total workload of System Administrators. The SharePoint AD Administration web part allows administrators to safely delegate limited Active Directory administration permissions and user management capabilities to front-line employees, thereby reducing IT workload and eliminating the bottleneck that occurs when all routine change or maintenance requests are funneled to IT.

SharePoint Document & Item Reordering 1.3.1221.4
SharePoint Document & Item Reordering is a new and powerful tool to customize lists and libraries according to the users' preferences. Imagine users need to access an item every day, or to prioritize lists according to specific requirements that cannot be met by SharePoint default sorting patters. SharePoint Document & Item Reordering allows for rearranging the order of items or folders in the lists, so most important ones can be sent to top, items that are no longer important can be send to bottom, or to any position in list or library. SharePoint out-of-the-box functionality does not support fully customizable rank rearrangement for list items. SharePoint users are allowed to reorder items or folders manually for link lists only, which has made the default tool even further less applicable for most users. SharePoint Document & Item Reordering (Formerly kown as SharePoint List Item Ranking) has considerably extended the native capacity of SharePoint by offering the followin ...

Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Series: Recent Discoveries in Astronomy
In this excerpt from the book Delight in Creation: Scientists Share Their Work with the Church, astronomer Deborah Haarsma shares her excitement about recent findings about our universe from a Christian perspective.
Series: Biblical and Scientific Shortcomings of Flood Geology
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.
How Do We Know the Earth is Old? (Infographic)
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the tools scientists use to determine the age of the Earth. The graphic, titled "How Do We Know the Earth is Old?", uses data compiled and summarized by geology professor Dr. Gregg Davidson.
What is the Higgs Boson?
At a press conference on July 4, 2012, and with 99.99994% confidence (5 sigma), CERN announced the discovery of a particle consistent with that of a Higgs boson (a.k.a. "the God particle"). This is very exciting for elementary particle physicists. But what is the Higgs particle, and what is its meaning?
Naming 'the God Particle'
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
Being Fruitful
Many people use the words "dominion" and "subdue" as "unconditional permission to use the world as they please." I came to realize, like many, that such an interpretation is contradicted by the rest of the Bible.
Series: Universe and Multiverse
Baylor University Physicist Gerald Cleaver describes the changing state of our understanding of the cosmos and suggests ways that Christians can make theological sense of a theoretical Multiverse.
Series: Science as an Instrument of Worship
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
God's Use of Time
I find that when many Christians think about the way God created our universe, they often bring a static expectation similar to what we bring to an ordinary statue. It's as if we assume the physical realm were merely a rigid three-dimensional sculpture, immovable with time.
When Appearances Are Deceiving
"That just doesn't sound right." Ever since I was a kid, that was my gut reaction to those well-meaning people in my church and school who told me that despite what many in the sciences were saying, the earth and the entire universe were actually of relatively recent manufacture.
Series: The Biblical Premise of Uniformitarianism
In this three part series, geologist Stephen Moshier critiques John MacArthur's articles on uniformitarianism, while offering an alternative perspective on the principle. He exposes faulty conceptions about and misleading definitions of uniformitarianism. Gregory Bennett further defends the idea of an old earth as Biblical and focuses on the unchanging nature of God. He also discusses the Scriptural doctrines of creation and God's providence.
Stewards of God's (Changing?) World
Interestingly, I find this sort of cynicism about climate change especially prevalent among Christians. Why is this?
Series: The Flood: Not Global, Barely Local, Mostly Theological
The three part series, written by Paul Seely, explores the scientific validity of the Flood in Genesis. He offers the approximate date of the flood according to Scripture, and then looks at various lines of evidence that contradict the idea of a global flood at that time. In light of other Mesopotamian flood stories, scholars conclude that the flood was local at best. In the end, he suggests that this story primarily reveals theological truths from a limited scientific understanding of natural events.
Crabby Christians or Nebulous Data?
Scientists who confront Bible-believing Christians with the physical evidence of theologically-challenging views like old-earth geology or common ancestry are usually incredulous when their well-crafted and well-supported arguments fall on deaf ears. How can something so obvious to one person be so easily dismissed by another?
Multiple Lines of Evidence for an Old Universe
Astronomers have many different methods for measuring the age of various objects in the universe, and they all support ages of billions of years, not thousands. Even if the assumptions of one or two methods were faulty, it is highly unlikely that all of the methods would be affected.
The Transit of Venus
Today we have a chance to witness a special moment in history as Venus transits across the disk of the Sun for people across the world to see. Not only is this process of discovery exciting for natural science, but it has profound theological ramifications as well.
For the Love of the World: John Stott and His Passion for Creation
Some criticized John for his theistic evolutionary position and even his appreciation for Darwin. But Stott saw no contradiction between his own commitment to the authority of Scripture and his openness to God's use of evolution in His creative process.

The Great Controversy: 10 Banned Films You Have To Watch
Over the course of the history of film production, certain movies have stuck with moviegoers for all the wrong reasons. Some films are just fine with being all fluff and no filter. Yet other pictures aim to push the envelope, to defy conventionality, and sometimes, in order to tip those scales, certain filmmakers manage to peeve off the censors with their more risqué content.
While censorship standards vary widely by country, being banned is a luxury only reserved for the truly explicit. Many places around the globe have watchdogs looking to protect the impressionable masses from things deemed immoral, and yet there are plenty of films that would surprise you that are deemed shocking or controversial. But doesn't that make these films any less awesome to watch!
Before you go run and tell the authorities about these explicitly prohibited pieces of cinema: just sit back, go through our list of the 10 Banned Films You Have To Watch, and say thank you to us in the comments section below.

Movie: Ben-Hur
Year: 1959
The epic classic historical drama which starred Charlton Heston in the titular role was banned in China for containing "propaganda of superstitious beliefs, namely Christianity." Our guess is that that guy named Jesus was just a figment of our imagination. The film went on to win an unprecedented 11 Academy Awards. As of 2012, only Titanic (1998) and Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King have matched the film's wins.
The chariot scene alone is worth the price of admission. Don't believe us, check out the theatrical trailer below:
Movie: The Departed
Year: 2006
If you thought watching Leonardo DiCaprio in Django Unchained was enough to offend, then you haven't truly watched Jack Nicholson act. But while the usage of the dreaded N-word made Americans think twice about seeing director Martin Scorsese's latest picture, China, once again, had more political minded issues with the picture. The crime thriller remake of the 2002 Hong Kong film Infernal Affairs was banned for a line suggesting that the Chinese government intended to use nuclear weapons on Taiwan. While in the U.S., the picture won four Oscar awards, in China the movie was never even given permission to screen.
That doesn't mean that you shouldn't see this stellar picture, which you can get a taste for below:
Movie: The Bohemian Girl
Year: 1936
Comedian legends Laurel & Hardy starred alongside the late Thelma Todd in The Bohemian Girl, which was her last role before her death. The film version of Michael William Balfe's opera found the dynamic duo as a pair of hen-pecked Gypsies in 18th Century Austria. Something that would go on to anger Nazi Germany's Führer and instantly ban the picture from ever being released to the public.
The Allies managed to liberate the people within the country, but only you can check out this clip from the film below:
Movie: Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Year: 1974
Director Tobe Hooper's classic American horror picture was so outrageous, so ahead of its time that has since gained a reputation as one of the best horror films in cinema history. The controversial picture was banned outright in several countries. Places like West Germany, Iceland, Norway, Singapore, and Sweden all believed that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was extremely violent and theaters in the U.S. even stopped showing the film in response to complaints about the film.
That didn't stop it from grossing over $30 million at the box office, and countless remakes, with the most recent film comming in at #1. Watch the retro in action with the trailer below:
Movie: The Outlaw
Year: 1943
Directed by American pioneer Howard Hughes, The Outlaw starred the very vivacious Jane Russell. The film was notable as her breakthrough role, turning the young actress into a sex symbol, a Hollywood icon and the fantasy of every young boy in the 1950s. But in the eyes of the Irish, Jane and her voluptuous curves were found to be too strong of a sexual inference to allow the motion picture to screen in Ireland.
Hughes, the resourceful businessman, schemed to create a public outcry in the U.S. for his film to be banned. The angst turned into publicity, which turned into a box office bankroll for the Jane Russell-starring picture.
You can watch this "controversial" picture and its trailer below:
Movie: A Clockwork Orange
Year: 1971
Legendary filmmaker Stanley Kubrick wrote, directed and produced this 1971 crime film adapted from Anthony Burgess' 1962 novella of the same name. The book, much like the picture, saw star Malcolm McDowell in a disturbing and violent light. The term "ultra-violence" was coined upon the film's initial screening. The film was banned in Ireland, Singapore, and South Korea due to its extreme depictions of violence and rape.
The ban didn't take away from the film's classic standing for too long, as Ireland lifted its ban in 2000, and Singapore in 2011. A must see for any cinephile, you can check out A Clockwork Orange's trippy trailer below:
Movie: Monty Python's Life Of Brian
Year: 1979
The Monty Python comedy troupe is considered a thing of pure gold inside and outside of the U.S. Their brand of surreal comedy and satire have been compared to The Beatles' influence on music. Life Of Brian tells the tale of Brian Cohen (played by Graham Chapman), a young Jewish man who is born on the same day as, and next door to, Jesus Christ, and is subsequently mistaken for the Messiah.
Countries such as Norway and Ireland banned the religious satire picture due to jokes deemed offensive to religious people. Both subsequently lifted the ban.
You can see what all the fuss was about by checking out the trailer below:
Movie: Goldfinger
Year: 1965
The third film in the James Bond series, which was also the third to star Sean Connery as the dashing secret agent, was a critical success. Superbly engineered, the picture was the first out of the Ian Fleming series to win an Academy Award (for Best Sound Effects Editing). So, why was this classic film banned in Israel? Could it be because the Bond girl was named "P***y Galore"...? No, the hate brewed deep for the title character, Auric Goldfinger, who was played by former Nazi Party member Gert Fröbe.
Goldfinger played for six weeks in Israel before Fröbe's Nazi past was disclosed. It's understandable that hat someone who supported a war criminal such as Adolf Hitler would have their work banned. But it was quickly unbanned after a few months when a man went to the Israeli Embassy in Vienna and told staff that Fröbe hid him and his mother from the Nazis (which may have saved their lives).
The classy and classic motion picture is one to see, especially if you're enjoying Daniel Craig's version in Skyfall. Watch the original (Sean Connery) do his thing in the trailer below:
Movie: Zoolander
Year: 2001
You're probably reading this wondering what could have Ben Stiller done to have his cult classic comedy banned, right? The film Zoolander was directed and starring the Frat Pack member, which found him playing a dimwitted male model named Derek Zoolander who becomes a pawn in a plot to assassinate the Prime Minister of Malaysia by corrupt fashion executives. As a result, the film was never shown in Malaysia, as it is depicted as impoverished and dependent on sweatshops in the movie.
Deemed "definitely unsuitable" by the Malaysian goverment,, the comedy picture was also banned in neighboring Singapore due to the bilateral sensitivities and the movie's incessant drug use. While Stiller and co-star Owen Wilson never dueled it out on the catwalk in Malaysia, it was subsequently made available in Singapore in 2006, with the R rating.
You can watch the trailer for this comedy cult classic below:
Movie: Apocalypse Now
Year: 1979
The Vietnam War was an epic dark time for the world, as the Cold War-era military conflict placed a spotlight on the growing contrast between the American government and its citizens. The 1979 film, directed and produced by Francis Ford Coppola, starred Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, and Martin Sheen. The film followed U.S. Army special operations officer Captain Benjamin L. Willard (Sheen), of MACV-SOG. His mission: to kill the renegade and presumed insane U.S. Army Special Forces Colonel Walter E. Kurtz (Brando).
While the film was deemed "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant" by the National Film Registry, President Park Chung-hee (South Korea's third Commander-in-Chief) too particular umbrage with the film. During his regime, the importation of the film was on hold because of Coppola's strong anti-war theme that reigned throughout the picture.
The National Film Registry didn't lie though, Apocalypse Now! is one of the most must-watch movies you should watch. Just take a look at the trailer and see what we mean!

UPDATE: New Mexico Finance Authority fires CEO Rick May
Posted at: 09/28/2012 12:00 PM
| Updated at: 09/28/2012 5:24 PM
By: Tracy Dingmann, KOB.com

The New Mexico Finance Authority has fired CEO Rick May.
After a 55-minute closed-door executive session Friday morning, state Economic Development Secretary Jon Barela introduced the measure to remove May. It was approved by a vote of 9-1.
Member William Fulginiti cast the only dissenting vote.
May had been on administrative leave with pay since last month after the agency discovered a former controller had filed a fake audit for 2011.
KOB's 4 On Your Side team investigated the fake audit and helped bring it to light.
The board had met in executive session on Sept. 10 to discuss May's status, but delayed making a decision until today.
On Sept, 9, May had sent a letter to the board threatening possible legal action - contending it was premature for the board to consider firing him until audit investigations were completed.
Chief Operating Officer John Duff and former controller Greg Campbell were arrested for fraud and other charges last month involving fake financial statements, which were distributed to investors and could put the state's credit rating at risk.
A grand jury indicted Campbell last week - Duff was not charged.
Governor Susana Martinez said in a prepared statement that "she feels it's very important for the NMFA board to take the actions that are necessary to determine how the fake audit was produced, to improve financial oversight and day-to-day management at NMFA, and to restore confidence in its operations."
And while the governor does not appoint, hire or fire the director of the NMFA - that's a decision left up to the board's 12 members - she does appoint ten of those individuals.
Stay with KOB for more on this breaking news story.

Manatees Migrating to Warmer Waters
With manatees moving to warmer waters as the temperature dips in Florida, boaters are reminded to take extra precautions to protect them.
Now that the weather outside is chilly, Florida manatees are migrating to warmer waters. They swim in search of a warm winter refuge such as freshwater springs or canals adjacent to power plant outflows. An adult manatee may weigh 1,000 pounds or more but is susceptible to cold. Water temperatures dipping to 68 degrees or below can produce cold stress in these aquatic mammals, and even cause death. On Nov. 15, seasonal manatee protection zone went into effect. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has provided boating safety tips below to protect manatees. November is designated as Manatee Awareness Month because of this seasonal migration. As authorities said earlier this year, you should probably try to avoid riding the…

I have a colleague that does not want to do the full STS install, instead starting off with Eclipse Juno 4.2 and adding the necessary add-ins to support Roo development equivalent to what I'm doing with STS.
The "Update Site Installation Instructions" at ...
... say to use this update site URL:
However when I use that and look at Available Software in Eclipse I see no mention of Roo at all. I see various components for Spring, Groovy, Grails - just nothing that mentions Roo itself and what it takes to integrate it into Eclipse. I've expanded all of the options and looked pretty thoroughly.
Am I looking in the right place? Or is it included in the general Spring add-ons? If so which ones?
Thank you - Richard

The two maps given in the rulebook ase not terribly helpful with determining the post ion of the things on the ground; library, sitting room etc. Can anybody help by telling me how they solved this problem?
Page 1 of 2 (16 messages) | 1 2 ...Last page » |
This will probably not help much but what I did with my group was strictly keep the adventure in the theator of the mind. I keeped everything loose, I.e you walk out into the center of the main hall and Otto the librarian notices you as he is walking down the stairs from the 2nd floor balcony. I would explain things vaguely and alow the pcs more freedom when telling me where they wanted to be. This approach also alowed me to direct them a little easier when they were a little stumped or a lull in the story occurred.
Furthermore this is almost a gothic horror approach. Describing things loosely allowing the players emaginations to fill in the blanks. If u play it off as though it's not important they won't pic up on the fact that u think it is.
Just my 2 cents
Without Signature
Gitzman's Gallery has modules for Map Tools, including one for Eye for an Eye, http://www.gitzmansgallery.com/wfrp-maptools.html
I loaded Map Tools and Gitzman's Eye for an Eye module and then took screen shots to create maps of the areas I needed.
I took the "theater of the mind" completely out. It is a lot of work, but I created a scale model of the entire lodge and surrounding buildings.
The lodge itself measures about 24"x18". Two story. Made it out of 3d model paper walls from the Tavern set by Fat Dragon Games and mounted it on MDF.
We had a blast running our minis through the lodge and chasing down the cultists. It made the adventure considerably more real and added a very nice tatical touch to the combats. I noticed my players were doing things like jumping on tables, throwing over chairs, and using the corners of walls as cover MUCH more so than they ever did before because they had a permanent visual. This helped them to remember were they had already been, what they had searched etc. I also used the cluecards
You only get to play it the first time once, and I am glad we used the 3d terrain.. Now, I only need to build a full scale table top for the rest of all the campaigns,…..
Without Signature
The theatre of the mind approach is tough. In a perfect world it would work but keeping everything in the same place would be tough for me.
The gitzman map is super helpful. That is exactly what I was hoping to find. I don't know why if they gave the maps of the bedrooms why they wouldn't give the map of the more important areas, library, kitchen etc.
A full scale model would be amazing, but the materials at my fingertips are not so much.
WOW. A full scale model would be lots of fun! Almost like a Mordheim version of the game. I think it's interesting how people perspective on what is hard can be so different. While I think a full scale model would be a hurculean task, and much harder than just "theator of the mind". It never occurred to me that my approach would be considered difficult, it's just how we ran games in my groups 20+ years ago.
The cardboard 3d terrain u used? Where did u get it? How much was it? Is it reusable, or is it a one time kit? I.e if I build a church, are all of my pieces used and I can't turn them into something different for next game session?
Without Signature
I have used several different "kits".
The reason I started doing paper models was the price. While I LOVE the Dwarven Forge stuff, I simply can not justify the expense.
In doing some research as to what I could use, I came across the "paper models". If you are not familiar with them, they are TONS, and TONS, of different packages you can purchase and many different companies that make them.
I found them at: http://www.wargamevault.com/index.php?manufacturers_id=346&term=fat%20dragon and: http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/index.php?keywords=free+paper+model&filters=100_0_0_0_0&x=22&y=20&author=&artist=&pfrom=&pto=
What I like about using the paper models:
1. They are very inexpensive
2. They are fairly easy to make once you have done just a few
3. They are available instantly - simply purchase, download, and print
4. Once you have the download you can make as MANY AS YOU WANT
I have threatened to post some pics in the past,.. so here are a few. Please keep in mind that nearly all of these pics are still a "work in progress" and were NOT set up to do pics. I just grabed the camera and snaped some shots. I will, in the near future clear my table and do a FULL set up with ALL the pieces, snap some shots and post if anybody wanted to see it fully set up. Also, I had a !@#$ing mouse think the lodge would make a great home and ate through some of the accessories! I added rice and corn to the accessory pieces to give them a little weight. The little SOB decided that would make a good dinner I suppose. (traps were bought the next day) I have yet to replace the damaged pieces.
wait a sec,… how do I place a pic in a post ??? *&^%$!!!!!

Jewelry fashion show to benefit EquAbility
MIDDLE GROVE — Growing up in Brooklyn, Barbara Diamond did not have many chances to be around and ride horses, but after her first pony ride, a gift for her first communion, she has been in the saddle ever since.
She now owns and operates Clover Ridge Farm in Middle Grove, which is home to the nonprofit organization EquAbility, a therapeutic riding program that gives people with special needs a chance to ride horses.
As the winter months approach, supply donations tend to slow down. That's why David's Cookie Lee Jewelry is hosting a jewelry fashion show fundraiser Sunday to benefit EquAbility at Clover Ridge. Proceeds from admission to the show will benefit Diamond's farm.
Diamond founded EquAbility in 1995, and her extensive knowledge of equine therapy stems from working with horses and those with special needs for more than 20 years.
It all started when Diamond was 11, when her family moved to Long Island. By the time she was 18, she was driving an hour to ride at a stable.
Her desire to have a therapeutic riding program originated when she was recruited as a volunteer to help with one. She knew about horses and she loved kids, and once she was exposed to this type of program, Diamond says she was "forever changed."
"Seeing how challenged people brightened up when they were riding got me hooked," she said.
Diamond moved to the region in 1989 to run a therapeutic riding program, which prompted her to start her own. Before moving to Middle Grove, she operated EquAbility at After Hours Farm in Clifton Park, where Barbara Jensen allowed Diamond to use space for the program.
As EquAbility continued to grow, Diamond realized she needed her own farm. She has been on her farm in Middle Grove for the past 13 years.
Diamond currently has 10 students of differing ages, some with special needs and others who just love to ride horses. Continued...
EquAbility at Clover Ridge Farm owns three horses — a 36-year-old quarter horse named Razz, a 30-year-old Arabian named Banjo and a 28-year-old Old Style Morgan named Little Guy. Diamond also owns seven horses and four miniature ponies, some of which are used for therapeutic riding.
"The most rewarding part of owning and operating EquAbility at Clover Ridge Farm is seeing the progress of the riders. EquAbility's motto is 'turning dreams into abilities,' and that's exactly what we strive to do," Diamond said.
"EquAbility has changed my life because it helps me think about my blessings and encourages my creativity to spur the riders on," Diamond said.
Sunday's jewelry fashion show fundraiser is scheduled for 2 to 5 p.m. at Mother Teresa Academy, 509 Moe Road, Clifton Park. Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for children 12 and younger. To get a sneak peek, go to www.cookie lee.biz/davidristau. Seats are limited and reservations can be made by emailing David Ristau at email@example.com or by calling 429-9097.
Morgan Rumpf is an intern at The Saratogian. She is a Saratoga Springs High School senior.

Executive Summary
Our project was to reverse engineer a Ryobi Angle Grinder. The objective of the project was to understand why and how the components were manufactured, designed, and assembled. During the disassembly and reassembly, we learned how an electric motor works, how power is converted to perform work, and how that work is translated through gears and shafts to provide the product with its purpose. The grinder is used to grind, sand, buff, and cut assorted materials. It is useful on metal especially. However, it can be used on wood, plastics, and concrete. The angle grinder is an important tool in construction, automotive repair, metalworking, and rescue. Angle grinders are very simple power tools and are used in both commercial and private projects.
The grinder has many features, including a removable handle, rotating guard, a wheel-changing wrench, and a lock-on switch. The handle screws into either side for easy use by left-handed and right-handed users. The guard serves as protection from sparks and shrapnel. The guard can be removed for easier access to smaller areas. The grinder can be fitted with several different kinds of disks, including diamond-edged wheels, abrasive disks, buffing and sanding pads. To switch the wheel, the grinder comes with a convenient wrench built into the handle. Though users may never switch the kinds of wheels they use, wheels wear down and the wrench is commonly used to replace with a fresh wheel. There is a lock-on switch for ease and comfort during long period use.
Although the angle grinder is a very handy tool, our group had several recommendations for improvements that Ryobi could have made. Some of our recommendations at the product level included a light, a cordless option, and a relocation of the trigger for more comfortable use.

The Ryobi Angle Grinder, Model Number AG402, comes packaged with the grinder, a side handle, a wrench for changing the grinding wheel, directions and safety precautions, and a grinding wheel. Our grinding wheel was removed for safety. The standard grinding wheel measures 4-1/2". The angle grinder weighs four pounds. The grinder has a 10 foot long cord which sends 120V AC from an outlet to power the motor. The motor operates at 60 Hz and 4.4 Amps. The motor and wheel spin at the same rate, up to 11,000 RPM. The arbor threads that hold the grinding wheel on are 5/8" x 11" UNC.
Before Disassembly
The purpose of the angle grinder is to grind down, cut, sand, polish, and buff. It works on a range of materials, including plastics, concrete, and wood, but mostly metal. The grinding wheel tends to clog with material when used with plastics or rubbers because the heat created can melt the object. The grinder takes electrical energy and transfers it to mechanical energy via an electric motor. It is an AC motor, as the specification sheet showed, so there should be no conversion between AC and DC. The power from the cord, when activated by the switch, goes to the electric motor, polarizing the stator and the rotor. The poles of the stator resist the poles of the rotor, enabling a constant spin. This motion is then translated through gears and eventually through to the grinding wheel. To keep the angle grinder from spinning out of control when it is turned on and contacted with a material, mechanical energy from the operator's hands needs to be applied to the system for steady, accurate use. One or two hands can be used with the assistance of the side handle..
The brand new angle grinder worked as expected. The arbor spins as it should, most likely at 11000 RPM. It was louder than an electric motor should be. This high volume was the first improvement to the grinder that we noted. Any noise made by a process, such as changing an electric current into mechanical energy via an electric motor, is a loss of energy. By reducing the noise of the motor and gears, the grinder could be more powerful while using the same amount of electricity. Also, lowering the volume would greatly reduce the strain on the user's ears.
Initially, the group guessed that there would be around 100 parts and nearly 15 different materials used.

The must-have kitchen appliance
The humble, indispensable slow cooker lets you bake bread, roast meat, simmer stew, make yogurt and even fix dessert -- frugally.
I haven't found recipes specific to the slow food movement, but I bet they're out there.
For as little as $20 -- and sometimes for a lot less -- you can get a machine that cooks for you during the day or while you're sleeping. Some life partners won't even do that.
The fancier (and more expensive) ones have bells and whistles such as programmable timers or "keep food warm" options. But you can get a basic model from the pre-Christmas sales, a thrift store or a yard sale. You could probably find one on The Freecycle Network, too. (Post continues after video.)
Or get one from a relative, the way I did: When my daughter received a bigger, better slow cooker as a wedding gift, she let me keep her old one.
Wherever you get the appliance, plan to use it to make some of the frugalest food ever. I use mine to:
- Make yogurt for about one-fourth the cost of store-bought.
- Bake potatoes, either regular or sweet -- I cook half a dozen at a time and turn the leftovers into potato salad, or fry them and serve with eggs.
- Roast an occasional loss-leader pork butt for barbecue sandwiches (if you have kids, just the chance to say "butt" at the dinner table makes this recipe a hit).
- Make soup stock from bones, pan juices and vegetable scraps -- producing extra meals from stuff that might otherwise get thrown out.
- Cook dry beans, either plain or flavored with neck bones or ham ends.
- Turn those plain beans into chili -- which doesn't scorch, the way it sometimes does in a pan on the stove (ditto spaghetti sauce).
- Bake interesting squash varieties like sweet dumpling or delicata.
Plain and fancy
And if you think you can't cook? Sites like A Year of Slow Cooking and Slow Cooker From Scratch will walk you through the process.
So will sites like Allrecipes.com and FoodNetwork.com, which have sections devoted to slow-cooker fare.
You can graduate to fancier dishes, such as the Osso Bucco Milanese or Tunisian Lamb found in a cookbook called "The Art of the Slow Cooker." But author Andrew Schloss also includes a meatloaf recipe for those trying to keep costs down.
Slow cookers can save you money, and not just because long, slow cooking will tenderize the cheaper cuts of meat. You won't be tempted to pick up takeout on the way home from work if you start a meal before you leave in the morning. Bonus: It's wonderful to open the door and be delighted by the fragrance of a hearty stew.
The appliance may improve your quality of life in other ways, too. For example, doesn't a long, lazy Saturday or Sunday breakfast sound inviting? You won't have to get up and cook if you put the ingredients for breakfast potatoes with sausage into the machine before you go to bed.
A few ingredients plus time equals inexpensive and healthy breakfasts, lunches and dinners. What's not to like? Cream of mushroom soup is optional.
