Perhaps you could invent some script that will go off and call a load of files for download into a hidden frame or something but I don't think people would like you for it. How often do you change your site, perhaps a manual system would be the easiest and best as you could tell users exactly WHAT has been added/updated?

A January 2002 trip to Perthentian Islands by VickyB
Quote: I spent 3 days in Flora Bay on Perhentian Besar. It was amazing being on an island that had no roads and cars.
Sleeping in hammock on the beach
Flora Bay dive club beach barbecues (with instructors singing)
Rooms are clean and comfortable
Right on the beach with great views.
Staff very friendly.
Muslim owned - no alcohol allowed in the restaurant, but alcohol can be brought from the other side of the island to be drunk elsewhere.

Martha Gellhorn was one of the first—and most widely read—female war correspondents of the twentieth century. She is best known for her fearless reporting in Europe before and during WWII and for her brief marriage to Ernest Hemingway, but she was also an acclaimed novelist.
In 1938, before the Munich pact, Gellhorn visited Prague and witnessed its transformation from a proud democracy preparing to battle Hitler to a country occupied by the German army. Born out of this experience, A Stricken Field follows a journalist who returns to Prague after its annexation and finds her efforts to obtain help for the refugees and to convey the shocking state of the country both frustrating and futile. A convincing account of a people under the brutal oppression of the Gestapo, A Stricken Field is Gellhorn's most powerful work of fiction.
"[A] brave, final novel. Its writing is quick with movement and with sympathy; its people alive with death, if one can put it that way. It leaves one with aching heart and questing mind."—New York Herald Tribune
"The translation of [Gellhorn's] personal testimony into the form of a novel has . . . force and point."—Times Literary Supplement

Automatic Reference Counting
In Objective-C programming, Automatic Reference Counting (ARC) is a memory management enhancement where the burden of keeping track of an object's reference count is lifted from the programmer to the compiler.[1] In traditional Objective-C, the programmer would send retain
and release
messages to objects in order to mark objects for deallocation or to prevent deallocation.[2] Under ARC, the compiler does this automatically by examining the source code and then adding the retain
and release
messages in the compiled code.[3]
ARC is not the same thing as garbage collection, as there is no background process doing the deallocation of objects.[4] Unlike garbage collection, ARC does not handle reference cycles automatically; it is up to the programmer to break cycles using weak references.[5]
David Chisnall at informIT views ARC as the "first significant improvement to Objective-C since the 1980s".[6]
Apple Inc. delivered a fully featured version of ARC in 2011 for application development on its Mac OS X Lion and iOS 5 operating systems.[7] Before that, a limited version of ARC (ARCLite[8]) was supported in Xcode 4.2 or later, Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" or later, and iOS 4.0 or later. Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion" or iOS 5 is recommended to use all the features, including weak reference support.
Rules when using ARC[edit]
The following rules are enforced by the compiler when ARC is turned on:
- You cannot call
, ordealloc
- The compiler automatically inserts the correct calls at compile time, including messaging
[super dealloc]
in an override of dealloc.
- Code example without ARC:
- (void)dealloc { [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self]; [super dealloc]; }
- Code example with ARC:
- (void)dealloc { [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self]; // no need to call [super dealloc] here }
- You cannot cast directly between
andvoid *
.[9] This includes casting between Foundation objects and Core Foundation objects.
- You must use special casts, or calls to special functions, to tell the compiler more information about the object's lifetime.
- Code example without ARC:
- (NSString *)giveMeAString { CFStringRef myString = [self someMethodThatCreatesACFString]; NSString *newString = (NSString *)myString; return [newString autorelease]; }
- Code example with ARC and a cast:
- (NSString *)giveMeAString { CFStringRef myString = [self someMethodThatCreatesACFString]; // retain count is 1 NSString *newString = (__bridge_transfer NSString *)myString; // the ownership has now been transferred into ARC return newString; }
- Code example with ARC and a function call:
- (NSString *)giveMeAString { CFStringRef myString = [self someMethodThatCreatesACFString]; // retain count is 1 NSString *newString = (NSString *)CFBridgingRelease(myString); // the ownership has now been transferred into ARC return newString; }
- You cannot use
- You must use the
syntax. This syntax is now available for all Objective-C modes.
- Code example without ARC:
- (void)loopThroughArray:(NSArray *)array { NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; for (id object in array) { // create a lot of temporary objects } [pool drain]; }
- Code example with ARC:
- (void)loopThroughArray:(NSArray *)array { @autoreleasepool { for (id object in array) { // create a lot of temporary objects } } }
- You cannot call the functions
- You cannot use object pointers in C structures (
- You cannot use memory zones (
- To properly cooperate with non-ARC code, you also cannot create a method or a declared property (unless you explicitly choose a different getter) that begins with "copy".[9]
Property Declarations[edit]
ARC introduces some new property declaration attributes, some of them replacing the old attributes.
Without ARC | With ARC | With ARCLite [Note 1] |
retain |
strong |
assign (for object types) |
weak |
unsafe_unretained |
copy |
- ^ ARCLite is ARC but without zeroing weak references (used when deploying to a less-capable operating environment than ARC requires).
Zeroing Weak References[edit]
Zeroing weak references is a feature in Objective-C ARC that automatically clears (sets to nil
) weak-reference local variables, instance variables, and declared properties immediately before the object being pointed to begins deallocation. This ensures that the pointer goes to either a valid object or nil
, and avoids dangling pointers. Prior to the introduction of this feature, "weak references" referred to references that were not retaining, but were not set to nil
when the object they pointed to was deallocated (equivalent to unsafe_unretained
in ARC), thus possibly leading to a dangling pointer. The programmer typically had to ensure that when an object is being deallocated to set all possible weak references to it to nil
manually. Zeroing weak references obviates the need to do this.
Zeroing weak references are indicated by using the declared property attribute weak
or by using the variable attribute __weak
Zeroing weak references are only available in Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion" or later and iOS 5 or later, because they require additional support from the Objective-C runtime. However, some OS X classes do not currently support weak references.[9] Code that uses ARC but needs to support versions of the OS older than those above cannot use zeroing weak references, and therefore must use unsafe_unretained
weak references. There exists a third-party library called PLWeakCompatibility [1] that allows one to use zeroing weak references even on these older OS versions.
Converting to ARC[edit]
Xcode 4.2 or later provides a way to convert code to ARC.[11] As of Xcode 4.5, it is found by choosing Edit > Refactor > Convert to Objective-C ARC... Although Xcode will automatically convert most code, some code may have to be converted manually. Xcode will inform the developer when more complex use cases arise, such as when a variable is declared inside an autorelease pool and used outside it or when two objects need to be toll-free bridged with special casts.

Super VC at Campana Brothers Event
Here is a fellow from Super VC, again enjoying champagne. Click here for their blog, where you can sample some of their music.
This event was to celebrate the visit to Beijing of Humberto Campana of the Campana brothers. He is here to promote his recent cooperative venture with Lacoste (more pictures of the shirts here). Much more about this soon.
Beijing's Modern Dandy
I had been meaning to put this one up for a while. Li Mengxia (李孟夏) is one of the most well-known and admired figures on the Beijing magazine publishing scene. He has worked in numerous capacities as a creative director, art director, and editor. I don't have time for fact checking right now, so I won't mention each of his various positions. He has been associated with Modern Media (现代传播) for quite a few years. One of his position was heading up the City Life section of Modern Weekly (《周末画报》城市版), to which I contribute a weekly column based on this blog.
Quite an interesting detail on his wool tie, which was purchased at Lane Crawford. The peacock feather type ornament on his lapel was what all VIPs received at the event that night.
Kiki's Creation
The Chinese Madame Figaro – the most cerebral of China's mainstream fashion magazines – is hosting a "magic pattern exhibition" at the World Trade Center this week that I recommend to all Stylites readers now in Beijing. Since March, issues of Madame Figaro have included original patterns by such well-known designers as Martin Margiela and Karl Lagerfeld. Readers were invited to use these patterns as the basis for their own designs. The most interesting of these new creations were actually brought to life in Beijing workshops. This one here, my favorite, was conceived by Milk@Coffee singer Kiki and is based on a pattern by French designer Marcel Marongiu. The patterned section is a vintage scarf.
More on the event from Yoka.com.
Kiki has been on Stylites in summer and winter.
Green and Red
This fashion design student is pairing green and red, which was formerly considered an unacceptable combination in China. She says that she doesn't care about those old rules. Actually, I think it might even be bad for men to wear green at all.
High-Resolution Photos from China Fashion Week
I have high-resolution photos from all the shows. If you ask me nicely and tell me the ones you want, I might send you some.
Military and Cat
Marie-Alice Legarda has been working as a stylist in Beijing for three years, but she doesn't feel that there is a huge amount of style here though people are clearly into fashion. Perhaps she has spent too much time in the City of Light, and every other place seems dim in comparison. As a shopping expert, she recommends that people who travel abroad do their shopping there. I would agree, with the exception of tailoring, since there is such a huge mark-up on quality products here. When it comes to restaurants and bars, Beijing is more blessed, in her opinion. Among her favorites are Maison Boulud, Hatsune, Flames at the Hilton Wangfujing. She also recommends Tea Time at the Ritz Carlton Central Place.
In the Shade of Snowy Willows
Never before have I taken a photo on Liuyin Street (柳荫街), right around the corner from my home. This, perhaps Beijing's most attractive street in what was formerly the most noble section of the city, is usually filled with homely tourists, rickshaw drivers, and urban peasants. Fortunately these elements clear out after nightfall and during snowstorms. In times like these, there is no more romantic place for a stroll. It will be painful not to be able to live near it after the area becomes completely gentrified – sure to happen in less than a decade. I am, as of yet, not part of the gentry.
Shanghai Knight
Here is Keeven, a fashion designer from Shanghai. His work has shown at fashion week there. He is with the group Fashion Design Organization. Sorry, still putting up pictures from China Fashion Week. After spending so much time seeing shows, my work has become rather backed up and I haven't had a chance to go out shooting.
Armor for a modern urban knight? He designed it himself as he did all of his other garments.
Cartier Collection at the Forbidden City
Catch this show (more at the Telegraph) in the Meridian Gate (午门)as soon as possible. It ends with November. The Chinese-influenced pieces, mainly from the 1920s, are beautiful and surprising. The rigor with which Cartier artisans studied and imitated the motifs and techniques of traditional Chinese jewelry is impressive. The object above joins a Chinese-style tortoise with Western horological genius.
This was one of my other favorite things. It is a tiny picture frame in the shape of a camera. It is about four inches tall.
Me on China Fashion Week at 163.com
Here I am, unedited, and sounding like an intellectual who doesn't know very much. I was caught on my way out of a show and did not have any time to prepare. There wasn't really even that much cat.
Also, at stylelist.com, here are pictures of the 20 strangest looks from China fashion week, without any mention of the designers. I know the names of some of them though there are sadly quite a few that I did not catch.
Proportions, Theatrics, and Striations
Another China Fashion Week find that is probably weaves together quite a few threads, subcultures, and themes. Despite her dimensions, she was there to watch the shows, not participate in them.
Cyrus the Great
Cyrus is the PR director for Proctor and Gamble, here in Beijing. What a great name?
Nanluoguxiang Resident
He didn't care that China Fashion Week had ended.
Fashion Fugitives
The press pass that had gained me entrance to 20 shows over the course of a week was in the name of the fashion editor of my magazine. It was confiscated and I did not make it into the final awards ceremony. These two guys did, though they did not have either a press pass or a ticket. These two fashion students actually made it into every single show of China Fashion Week SS '10 without any documents allowing entry. They would just sneak in – once or twice on my coattails. For the final event, they walked past the guards into a side door, even though there were metal detectors before all of the official entrances.
China Fashion Week Awards Ceremony: Li Xiaoyan Gets Gold!
Last night, Ms. Li Xiaoyan (李小燕) received the 2009 (for SS '10 collections) gold prize for the best collection. This award is presented by the organizations that organized this, the thirteenth China Fashion Week. Learn more (in Chinese) on Yoka and Sina. View the award winning collection here at Yoka.
I met Ms. Li, originally from Taipei, after her show and she was nice enough to present me with the scarf she was then wearing, which is also part of the award-winning collection. This nice souvenir made up for the fact that my press ID was confiscated later that night because it was actually registered in my subordinates' name.
Guo Pei (scroll down) received the award for the best woman's collection and Cabeen got it for men.

Stocks opened mixed as investors juggled an unexpected loss from Wachovia and an uptick in retail sales.
Stocks opened mixed as investors juggled an unexpected loss from Wachovia and an uptick in retail sales.
Stocks opened mixed as investors juggled an unexpected loss from Wachovia and an uptick in retail sales.
On Friday, General Electric surprised, now it's Wachovia Bank's turn. They missed by a mile: a loss of $0.14 from continuing operations, consensus was a gain of $0.40. They are cutting their dividend 41 percent and seeking to raise $7 b in capital, so the poor earnings will be diluted even more.
A double helping of economic data and first-quarter earnings reports will flood the zone next week, but it's the corporate earnings that will drive stocks and give a better picture of where the economy is going. If GE's bombshell earnings miss is an indicator, the news will be as nasty as traders expect.
Q: On Fast Money's Trader Radar we look at the stock that was lighting up screens across Wall Street. It may take its name from a landform at the mouth of a river but this company operates far above the earth and always displays two trademark red triangles on the tails of its jets. As a competitor continued to contend with cancellations this stock was anything but grounded today, taking off on renewed talk of a merger with a rival. Who is it?
For the week ending Friday, April 11, 2008 the US Markets ended the week in negative territory. There was not a lot of movement in the markets for most of the week, as the major indices traded on a mix of news including same store sales, record highs in oil, flight cancellations from major airlines, and disappointing first quarter results from Alcoa (AA). The markets tumbled on Friday on General Electric's (GE) disappointing earnings.
Air traveler angst was sure to continue Friday as American Airlines grounded hundreds more flights. The financial toll and loss of goodwill likely would grow as well, as the inspection-related mess spread further to other carriers and hurt an industry already bleeding cash thanks to high fuel costs.
GE reported first quarter earnings of $0.44, below the $0.51 consensus and $0.50-$0.53 guidance. Full year guidance was cut to $2.20-$2.30 from $2.42. Down 11 percent pre-open. This was the biggest miss most analysts can remember; certainly the biggest miss in over a decade.
Delta Air Lines is urging its union leaders to cede parts of a pilots' labour contract so it can move closer to merging with Northwest Airlines, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources who knew about the situation.
Stocks finished flat Monday as traders opted to pull over and let some of the earnings traffic pass before deciding what to do next.
Consumer complaints rose at 15 of the 16 airlines studied and overall soared 60 percent.
Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines have revived merger talks, according to a report in The Financial Times.
Stocks advanced Monday, helped by financials, after some encouraging news that suggests banks may be getting their act together.
.Three big financial stocks are the top volume movers this morning--Washington Mutual, UBS, and Citigroup. Washington Mutual up 16 percent pre-open on a Journal story that private equity firm TPG and others may invest $5 b in the company, which would provide it with much-needed capital.
ATA Airlines canceled all flights Thursday after filing for bankruptcy as it posted advisories at ticket counters in the handful of cities it still served and sought assistance for stranded passengers.

My 1st grader hates going to school. There is no specific reason why.
My son hates going to school since kindergarten. He has smiley faces every day, nice teacher, friends and is learning well. However, every single evening and morning, he gets upset that he has to go to school. It is so draining. Ive talked to the teacher several times and she has nothing but nice things to say about my son. We've have punished him by taking videos away, limited tv time. Both my husband and I do spend time with him. He is a very sensitive boy and loves his games. What we have got from him after much much asking.... is that he feels school is too long, too much work and not that much fun. I go eat lunch with him at least two times out of the week, we watch one of his favorite shows after dinner and if he doesn't nag in the morning or evening he gets to play for a little while with the xbox. He has for me to go to work, but doesnt have a problem when his father goes to work. He is a well behave child and this is really the only thing that worries me. However it is a constant thing every day twice a day and it is draining me. Now, I don't over stressed because I have gone to the school, talked to his teacher and I know he is not getting bullied. What else can I do?

I washed my mouse today....
(56 posts)Well, now we could have a big discussion. I think scrollball is the ultimate. You have to set it at the right speed though. The standard "mouse speed" is too fast. And I never have to lift my hand off the table - except for typing, of course. That's why I am not a big fan of keyboard shortcuts. Would have to move the hand.
I have this mouse/keyboard combo... can't use anything else anymore:
Ironically I bought them both separately not realizing they were sold as a set... very comfortable to use. Of course I'm on my computer so much that my arms end up hurting anyway.

Evidence from animal and human studies indicates that epilepsy can affect cardiac function, although the molecular basis of this remains poorly understood. Hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels generate pacemaker activity and modulate cellular excitability in the brain and heart, with altered expression and function associated with epilepsy and cardiomyopathies. Whether ...

The sponsor site of Kumbo, Cameroon was one of the first sponsor sites established by Chalice in 1996. Sr. Lorraine MacKinnon, a speaker with Chalice, knew of three CND Sisters working in Cameroon with desperately poor women and children: Sr. Noreen MacDonald & Sr. Cecile Buote both from Prince Edward Island and Sr. Marilyn Von Zuben from Ontario. Sr. Lorraine recommended that they be contacted to see if they would be interested in establishing a sponsorship program in their area. Each Sister took responsibility for one extended family and the Kumbo sponsor site was born. In November 1996 the first child was sponsored in the sponsor site. In 2007, Sr. Noreen retired as Site Director and Sr. Marilyn Von Zuben CND, graciously accepted the position. Recently Sr. Marilyn, after years of working tirelessly for the families in Kumbo has retired as director of the Kumbo Sponsor site. The new staff members are Sr. Louisa Wirmum - Director; Peter Nubong - Projects Manager; Rosette Barah - Book Keeper/Accountant; Peter Wirba; Rosca Jingla - Field Worker.
The site of Kumbo began slowly with 15 children, but grew rapidly to its present status with over 1400 children and elderly being sponsored. The onslaught of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and the culture of the dominant tribe in the Kumbo area had a major impact on the growth of the site. When a man dies, no matter what the cause, his wife is blamed. Everything they owned then becomes the property of his family of origin and the widow and her children are driven from the compound. In many cases the women and children walk long distances to request help from the Kumbo sponsor site, as they have no other means for survival.
Sr. Louisa and her co-workers do their best to improve the lives of the families with whom they are in contact. Women are encouraged to become self sufficient while their children are enrolled in school. It is the goal of the site to have every person tested for HIV/AIDS. Fortunately anti-retroviral drugs are now available for those who test positive and Nivirrapine is greatly reducing the risk of mother to child transmission.There are two health insurance programs in the area, which are greatly helping in the partial payment of medical costs. Because sponsored children's school fees are paid the teachers are in turn assisted. The economic crisis and poor harvests, which are the result of global warming and other factors, have caused the price of food and other basic commodities to increase dramatically.
The weather of Kumbo is characterized by a short dry season of about four months (November - February) and a longer wet season (March - October). The months of August and February are the coldest and hottest respectively. The roads in Kumbo are seasonal, during the dry season they are extremely dusty and in the rainy season the mud makes traveling difficult. The inclement weather in Cameroon has caused a massive increase in the cost of food. In recent years the northern part of the country has been plagued with droughts. Torrential rains often follow these seasons of droughts, bringing with them water borne diseases. Unfortunately it sometimes happens that a child who has gone to fetch water is swept away by the current.
Life is not easy for the people of Kumbo, but their efforts, optimism, determination and ability to smile through adversity never cease to amaze, humble and inspire those associated with the site. Sr. Louisa and her colleagues feel it is a privilege to help people live with dignity and hope. The dedication of these people has made a huge difference in the lives of the people in their care. The love and kindness of the Chalice supporters makes it possible for the people of Kumbo to experience God's gospel in action.
Director's Report 2012 - Kumbo, Cameroon
We thank you immensely for helping us help our children and their families. You are so much a part of them through your prayers, cards, gifts and sponsorship funds.
Kumbo Sponsor Site is committed in accompanying, monitoring and following up on 1587 children and 70 elderly. We assist them psychologically, emotionally, financially and materially so that they can stay at their homes and go to schools of their choice. We ensure holistic Education and Health, Nutrition and equip them with different skills. Education remains our highest goal as we see it as a tool to decrease poverty. These children live either in Kumbo Town or the surrounding villages. About 1349 of our children are attending 114 schools, 50 in Nursery Schools, 546 in primary schools, 699 in Secondary/High Schools, 54 in Universities and 86 are acquiring professional skills. To decrease poverty and school drop outs we organized seminars and workshops to educate children on growth issues as well as equipping them with computer skills during holidays.
Our children are doing well at school as they do not miss classes due to unpaid fees or any school equipment. We carry out school and home visitations twice a year to ensure performance and attendance.
Our children and elderly are enrolled in the Medical Health Insurance. This means that three times a year their hospital Bill is paid by the Insurance Organization. When sick they receive medical treatment in any of our big hospitals around us. During this year we organized:
- A seminar on sickle cell Anemia which is common among us.
- Sensitized, educated and carried out voluntary counselling and testing for HIV helping them to know their status.
- Formed a PIT TOILET BUILDING COMMITTEE which carried out the digging of some toilets for families to prevent insect and water borne diseases.
Most of our children's families are farmers. We encourage them to own their own farms. This helps them to have enough food always. A part of the sponsorship money is used to purchase manure or fertilizers to help have a good yield. Most of the food cultivated is consumed at home so our children eat well. During holidays and on Saturday, children go to the farm with their parents to harvest. This activity builds family unity and teaches the children sustainable agriculture. We regularly hold briefings and courses for our parents on new techniques and responsible management.
Finally, in this last year we celebrated the 15th Anniversary of Kumbo Sponsor Site and the children participated enormously. They performed different activities and prizes were awarded. It was a colourful and enjoyable day for the entire community. A special mass was held and it was a true gift of witness and recognition for all that Chalice and you our dear sponsors have given.
Once more THANK YOU for what you are doing for our children. We often pray for you. The children, elderly and their families pray for you. We may be on the battlefield fighting against ignorance, poverty and many other evils, but what we could do without your support would be little as carry build a heaven on earth here in Kumbo.
Sr. Louisa Wirmum (SST).
Director of Kumbo Sponsor Site

The Optical variable ink
widely used for cards as well as the label and packaging of cigarettes,wines, medicines and cosmetic.
product brief introduction:
Optically variable ink is an anti-counterfeiting measure used on many major modern banknotes.
The ink displays two distinct colors depending on the angle the bill is viewed at. The United States fifty-dollar bill, for example, uses color shifting ink for the numeral 50 so that it displays copper at one angle and bright green in another.
Color-shifting inks reflect various wavelengths in white light differently, depending on the angle of incidence to the surface. An unaided eye will observe this effect as a change of color while the viewing angle is changed. A color copier or scanner can copy a document only at one fixed angle relative to the document's surface.
the optical variable ink has three kinds to meet cilents' different needs:
7000series: suggestion first prints the bottom color,if does not print black bottom have to use highly concentrated the printing ink, compared with the latter two kinds has the metal sense of reality.
8000 series: have to print the deep color bottom.
9000series: double change color must print the deep color bottom and the single color have to print white bottom.
7000series: silver-green, red-green,mauve-green, brown red-golden,magenta-golden,rose red-gloden,olivine-blue, verdancy-blue, grass green-purple, blue-mauve,green-purple,golden-argent
7000series: golden-green,red-green,green-blue, blue-purple black, bluegreen-purple
9000series: purple-green, green-purple,green-orange, colorless-golden, red, green,blue

Sleeping with no insulation at all. Help please.
Hi guys.
I am about to fly to Singapore and cycle up to Vietnam from late December to March this year. The average low temps look like they dont drop below 50 deg F very often at all. I am planning to buy a Hennessy Hammock as a weight saving option as I expect to only be camping maybe once a week. As such I would love to cycle with no pad and no sleeping bag. Is this a bad idea or will I be fine sleeping with just a light jumper, socks and long pants?? Thanks, Adam |

In those low temps you indicated, I think you would want some insulation underneath you. I can definitely feel myself getting cold as low as ~60F even when I'm wearing decent clothing. Most people here recommend something if you are going below 70F.
A simple inflatable pad may work for you - it doesn't take up a lot of room. |

I'd go for a down uq and tq made for summer. They will pack down to the size of a softball and keep you warm when it's cool...

Below 65 F, I recommend carrying something for the bottom. I'm a pretty warm sleeper (manufacturers' temp ratings tend to be 5 to 10 degrees F too conservative for me, on average), and I get chilly below 65 if I don't have something below me.
Now, above 50, you could probably get away with just a synthetic sleeping bag (the synthetic fill won't compress as much as down underneath you, allowing you to stay warm enough at those temperatures). But, it's going to be bulkier (and, probably, heavier) than a proper down tq/uq combo. Another option is to make a Garlington insulator out of a poncho (so that it doubles as your rain gear) and a space blanket for your bottom insulation and just carry a summerweight down top quilt. That way, the under insulation will be less moisture-sensitive (which, if popular representation of that part of the world is accurate, is nothing to sneeze at) and just as light as a down underquilt. It'll also do double-duty, saving you the weight (and bulk) of carrying a separate set of rain gear. I'm testing this right now for my 3-season FL set up (where the temps get down into the 50s at the coldest). In a month or two, I'll be able to comment more effectively on how it does towards the bottom of that temperature range. For now, I can say that it's comfy down to 65 F, but I'm pretty good at those temperatures even without under insulation...

If you're on a budget: A windshield sunshade & a fleece sleeping bag. Maybe even an emergency blanket.
If you're not on a budget: A summer TQ & UQ (the best option). Can you test in a 50 degree room somewhere?

The 50 degree average low may be a bit misleading. That's usually for the center of towns and down in the valley. If your on top of a mountain, it could be a lot lower plus the winds could get high. You need a little bit underneath you, but it doesn't have to be heavy or bulky. A foam filled air mat (like most Thermorest pads) should be enough. Lighter, but more bulky, would be a closed cell mat.

Hey guys - thanks a lot for the helpful responses.
The average minimum weather in most locations will generally be more like 65 degrees - I say 50 to cover myself for altitude up north and variation from the averages. Unfortunately it is not easy for me to do any tests or make any complicated DIY options. I am already cycling in Turkey using a tent that I will be ditching as I will be switching from travelling with my partner to cycling solo for a few months while she is studying. I will have the Hammock sent to an address in Singapore. How much protection would a Silk sleeping sheet give me. it is stitched like a sleeping bag liner but is about the size of a queen bed so I could actually fold it in half first so that I would have 3 layers under me and 1 above me...? Or perhaps this with a windshield sunshade under me? (Is silk inefficient in this situation?) What could I expect to pay for a summer TQ & UQ combo? Any suggestions? THANKS!

TQ/UQ from USA cottage vendors would run about $300-400 for a set, depending on if you went full length UQ or 3/4 length. Less for the Chinese made stuff. Taxes & shipping are extras.
Silk liner won't do much for warmth without some form of thicker fabric like fleece over it. The problem with a hammock is convection heat loss, which can become very rapid with even a slight breeze around it. High humidity + the breeze = air conditioning. Fine if it's hot, not so fine when it's cool. I use my quilts all the time, but it's a lot different here. Low 50's at night is very common, even if it's in the 90's during the day.
Love is blind. Marriage is an eye opener. |

Cheers, that looks a little out of my budget unfortunately.
I think I will go with my 450g Karrimor inflatable mattress and look to buy a thin fleece blanket. Will I need to size the fleece blanket so that it fits both under and on top of me? Sleeping directly on the matt doesn't woulnd so nice.. |

Home › Forums › General Discussion › If Young Bleed, Cognito, Grave Plott & Skatterman & Snug Brim Were Still With Strange…
This topic contains 15 replies, has 11 voices, and was last updated by Winz 1 year, 3 months ago.
What 5 collaborations between them and the current artists on Strange that haven't happened before would you want to see the most?
Cognito x CES Cru
I just have a feeling CES and Cognito would really compliment each other on a track; all three have great flows.
Grave Plott x Prozak
Prozak and Grave Plott both have done sick horrorcore songs by themselves and I think together they would really be great.
Liquid Assassin x JL of B.Hood
Assuming JL gets signed, I'd love to have seen him and Liquid Assassin murder a fast beat with their rapid-fire delivery and sick flows.
Skatterman & Snug Brim x Stevie Stone
Skat, Snug and Stone would be killing it on some heavy bass gangsta rap type tracks.
Young Bleed x Big Scoob
I think it'd be interesting to see Bleed and Scoob, two of Strange's biggest gangstas, on a track together.
Good ideas. Too bad I can't think of any. Well except maybe a random collab between Cognito and ¡Mayday! ..why I don't know, just seems like it would sound good.
Yea, I could see that. Even Skat and Snug doing something with Mayday; they have rapped on some rock type beats before.
Bleed, Grave Plott, and Skat and Snug were all trash imo. Cognito and Rittz coulda been a cool collab. And I wouldn't assume JL is going to be signed. People assumed for years that Irv would get signed, and look how that turned out.
And before somebody says "Oh well Tech said nobody is getting signed until JL is signed!" He said the same thing about Irv.
Cole said:
These are pretty good suggestions. I'll say this though just because they are not on strange doesn't mean they can't or won't collaborate with them anymore. I'd like to see Cognito put his album out. I could see skatterman & snug brim on a stevie stone song or ces cru.
Jason "Goliath" Cook said:
Never gonna happen. Skat (and likely Snug) are on some butthurt shit:
On another note, in a Cognito livestream, the dude said that he is cool with Strange and is willing to do collabs in the future.
i think cog and ces would kill it and him stevie did stranger on Automatic which was sick mayday seems to bring out the best of everybody on strange and grave plott lynch prozak and cognito i think would be a monster
Yea, "Stranger" was dope. Tech, Cognito, Scoob, Stevie, Kutt, and Loki all on the same track was sick.
I'd say take back cognito, liquid assassin, Grave Plott, and Bleed but Fuck Skatterman after what he said about tech
Cog & Rittz would be cool.
Yea. Cognito has the best flow and lyrical ability besides Tech and Rittz in my opinion but CES Cru is damn good too. It really sucks Cognito had to leave.. Especially after just one album.
All i want is:
Liquid Assassin x Prozak
Cognito x Mayday
Cognito x Prozak
Cognito x Rittz
Cognito x Ces Cru
that's really it
amen AAANNND irv shits on JL and Stone Juss sayin

yup but the only reason he left was he had a 1 album deal and if his sales were high enough he would get a better deal his album sales were low so they let him go which sucks
cuz automatic was sick

Samsung Galaxy Note 2
For the phablet category, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is the only real contender that marries Android power with a built-in stylus. Note-taking with the S Pen means you can leave the laptop back in your locker or dorm room, and the built-in 8-megapixel camera takes fine videos and snaps. Those who can should wait until Samsung announces a successor in the fall -- if you don't opt for that Note 3 model, at least prices on the Note 2 will drop.
The good: Oodles of screen real estate make the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 terrific for videos, games, and reading; and its improved stylus aids productivity. A blazing quad-core processor, a great camera, and strong battery life round out the advantages of this Android 4.1 phone.
The bad: The huge display makes the Galaxy Note 2 unwieldy to carry, and hiccups in the S Pen stylus and apps can slow you down. The pricey Note 2 isn't a suitable tablet replacement across all categories.
The bottom line: Samsung delivers a powerful, boundary-pushing device that gets a lot right. Yet its complicated features and high price raise questions about its purpose.
