I have been making the leg greeblie, and I hate to say it, but zoom into the real pics from the MOM pics with the leg shot, and it looks really fallic.
Dr. Maul's pics
that adds an interesting twist...
I am tempted to say it looks like some sort of pouch for holding a knife or even a Gerber multitool.
Hey yall, I will be posting progress pics soon of my 5 little greeblies and my interpretation from Dr. Maul's pics. If any one wants to critique them please, do so, I still have yet to sand some parts to get smoother effects. I need imput before I make a final cast. The leg greeblie will be done tonight and posted. Unfortunately, I already baked them, so all I can do is sand them down, but that is still something... unfortunately, I have yet to develop my website for a closer look. So, here are the ones from printroom.com
I am Envyous now. Only thing I can see wrong so far is the football shaped one is missing soem of the dotting on it that I can see in the shots instead. look at the pictures and you may know what I mean. It may also be the color and light of your greeblie that makes me not see what I mean either. Other wise they are execllent.
your costume is really starting to take shape!
Great Work :)
I wish everyone had some sorta photo editor so that they can circle what they mean. I do have some mottled parts in the top section and the indented side L sections of the buckle/football greeblie." It might not have shown up in the pic, but there is a difference with the internal part next to the wing-like designs, there should be more overlaps but I didn't know how to do that clearly, cause that was my first greeblie. In hindsight, I shouldn't have baked half of them just yet. I got anxious. I was too scared they would get knocked over...
Oh about the leg greeblie. I noticed the 12" doll's leg greeblie is really different from the actual Aussie photo. I like the 12" doll version better. The one that is in the Aussie photo seriously makes me think the sculpter who made it has some problems.. Maybe the photo is just bad, but I only wish it was a knife holder.
Well the Leg Greeblie in the photo is exactly like the one in the Visual Dictionary. The doll one seems to fat and deformed.
Mostly finished the leg greeblie, what do you guys think. Check it out:
Hey Zam looking great! Nice hose connector and broach. :)
If anyone wanted some of these pieces made, let me know I love making nurnies in my spare time.
Oh oops sorrie guys, when I started this thread, the 5 little greeblies that I made were the three belt pieces and the arm band and the leg piece. I have almost cast them all, except for the bottle and the leg piece. I am waiting for DCB's pics, so that I can get more detailed shots before I put them in the oven :)
The hose connector and broach, of course, were made by Paul.
The cresent moon+two pear shaped things were KnC's.
I want to give credit to where credit is due. Very, very, very nice pieces I might add.
The beads I bought from Ames-Christmas tree decor.
The shoes (with the perfect soles, but not uppers) were made by doll house footwear.
Ok, from dallas' pics, the leg greeblie is not phallic, so...I am sorry whichever lucas sculpter made the thing...(if yer out there) definately looks like a knife holder with lots of copper tarnished looking paint..
Just wanted to give you guys a taste of what my greeblies will look like, now that I have redone all except the football looking greeblie from dcb's pics. Please! Please! critique my work before I finally bake em. I am going for perfection here. When I get home, I will crop them against several of dcb's pics. (dcb, hope you don't mind) Too bad printroom doesn't allow you to zoom in larger, but take a look and comment please :)

And when will they be available to order and when can we expect to receive?
Thank you so much for posting these for me dcb! :) Version 2.0 is almost done. The football greeblie will be done as soon as I make it a little fatter up at the top. I realize the side belt "comp mouse" looking one needs some shaving off, cause it's too long, but only a sander can do that, cause that part was already baked. The top 1 mm layer on that one can be resculpted though, so if you have any critiques, i really need em. On any of them, Please ANYONE! Say SOMETHING about them! Thanks
Oh, about ordering, um... I am going to make sure that I get expert critiques first. Then I might do one batch on ebay. (Shameless plug) Sorry, but, I haven't finished them just yet. They are still at stage one, cause the version 1.0 was just so so, and believing in only my best for my fellow tdh'ers, thus version 2.0 is in progress. I will post when I can help people out with the greeblies. Right now, I am going for accuracy I know I need to fix three of the greebs, then I will be ready to bake and then mold, then cast. Patience, my young padawan! hehe j/k.
Wow those are sweet!!!! with the exception of the last pic (its a tad too long as you said) all of them look almost dead on to me.
I think they're coming along very nicely. I can see some very small differences with the two pics side by side but if they were painted and by themselves, I'd say they look really close!
Good job.
Moncal, PLEASE List the differences that you see! C'mon guys, now's your time to rag on my work, I mean constructively critisize..LOL you know what I mean. I need this to be as close as possible before molding. The more eyes the better. Cause, there are certain things paint can't fix.
Zam I Am ya got my opinions allready and funny you say Rag on your work. :)
they really look great! it was hard to find stuff to critique... but here are a few minor things....
Thanks! Now that is what I'm talking about! Thanks for the critiques dcb. Seriously, after I get done with these little stinkers, LFL is gonna think I stole em. LOL :lol
Come on now Zam I am We all figured out by now that you are just secretly takeing them from the LFL archive and makeing molds of them for all of us :) Seriously thought they are looking great and dallas seems to be saying close to the same things I have been.
Cool... thanks!!! ;)Quote:

My comments for what they're worth... Though they all look absolutely terrific to me.
#1 - I think the rope like parts are a little longer in the original and that bottom section they connect to is a little further down.
#2 - Could be the lighting and/or lack of paint but the buttons appear to be more beveled than smooth in the original pic - hard to see how you did them on yours.
#5 - The top portion of the original "mouse" greeblie looks like it has some dimples to me.
that seems a bit critically nit-picky here. I can see what you mean when you pointed it out, but I don't see that as a problem. I think the pieces are beautiful as they are. You're sure working hard on this!
Keep it up!
yes- it is nit-picky and they ARE beautiful as is... but why not make them PERFECT :)
ZamIAm asked for critiques....
True! If it's not much trouble then go for it! I wasn;t really complaining on how they looked to begin with anyway though. :)
Zam I Am wants perfection out of them so lets help her out. Just Like I want perfection outta the Cumberbun part of the skirt.
OH my mistake :D
I meant to say they're way off..not even close
to my 12" zam greeblies :lol
Seriously though,
The things DCB mentioned were pretty much the same things I noticed. The only thing I'd add is the football piece looks like you need to grab yours in the middle and squish it a bit. The real one almost looks like that's what happened to it (to me anyway). It's a bit flatter in the middle portion on the edges horizontally in the pic. Anything more would be extremely anal, I mean going down to the way some of the lines were cut or the little dimples. Your leg / knife holder thingy looks a little wider on the top portion to me also but again, that's very picky and not something that would dissuade me from acquiring one ;) .
Still, great work!
I agree pretty much with what everone else has said, except I think that the leg greeblie is just a little too wide and maybe a bit too short. Where it looks wide is the top "flap" and where it looks too short is the center section. It may just be because your "flap" is more rounded where it comes to a point than in the picture of the original.
And the band going across the center section looks a little thin compared to the original.
Over all it's really impressive work. :)
Thanks yall for the critiques, that's what I really needed. Maulmaus, #2 buttons? are you talking about the bottle greeblie? I am not quite sure about what buttons you are talking about.
For the arm greeb, I might have to remake the whole thing, kinda like the football one, so, dunno if I'm gonna totally re-do that one cause most of it is already baked from version 1.0. But, I might. Hmm, I can cut the lower portion with an exacto... we'll see.
If you guys are in dire need, I already have version 1.0 molds for the arm, football, mouse greebs.I could have my hubby cast version 1.0 for some of ya. But, I seriously think version 2.0 will be tons more accurate. So if you wanna wait..
Version 1.0 ones that I have molds for are pictured here:
I noticed another thing. On the bottle.
The second wrap on the top of the bottle neck looks like it should be a little thicker / wider and have a slight crease / fold starting in the middle of the picture going to the right of the picture. Hope that makes sense.
I think I understand about the bottle greeb, I already made the u's on the bottom of the bottle a little higher, and put a second crease on the neck part. But it slants like this
.O// If ya know what I mean.
( )
Moncal-LOL :lol hasbro zam!
I'm not even sure about this myself! ;) It could just be the difference in lighting between your piece and the orginal (which is shinier). Looking at it again more closely I'm not sure there is a difference or not... I've highlighted the part I noticed.Quote:

Maulmaus, #2 buttons? are you talking about the bottle greeblie? I am not quite sure about what buttons you are talking about.
Actually, I pushed the button on the right up a little, and kinda re-did the edges of the buttons so that it is separated a little more. Got it! :) I think you are right.
I think they're gonna be perfect when you get done! We're all going to be insanely jealous when we finally get to see the finished product! :D
Status on my 5 greebs, I fixed almost everything that everyone said except I haven't shaved off the (mouse) belt piece down yet. I actually started another armpiece from scratch outta sculpey. More pics prolly this week. I will be asking everyone for one last critique. Hope yall don't mind. Thanks for really critiquing my stuff ya'll, it makes it look a lot closer to the real thing. Then I will be casting. Whew! According to a 5'6" Zam, my greeblie proportions are about 1 cm off by being on the larger side. The leg piece I think is 3 cm off, but you almost can't tell, it's still looks ok. So, I might make the leather strap a little thicker. Haven't done any leather work just yet.
pix posted for ZamIAm:
I already pressed down the top part of the bottle greeblie so that it didn't stick up as much above the neck part. I am gonna cast pretty soon, but go on people BRING IT ON! hehe. I hope that I don't make it worse. I started getting tired last night and was making unnessesary cuts. My new tools have helped and hindered my greeblie making. Cant seem to find a tool thin enuff for crevaces. Taking a second look,Darn, I forgot to make the v point of the leg greeblie pointier. I was worried about it being too long. I actually cut 1 cm off the top part.I will be sure to do that before I bake. But any other suggestions? BTW, thanks for posting em Dallas! :)
Do the dimples on the mouse need to be more pronounced? I cant tell on my screen.
Other than that the stuff looks fantastic!
looks wonderful!
But I think unfortunately all your greeblies are 10% smaller than the actual prop. :(
Just kidding! I know that would give you a heart attack if that were true! HA!
Looks beautfil! Can't wait to see them all finished and painted!
actually, all of them are 1cm too BIG! hehe. I already had that heart attack when I found out that the leg greeb was couple of centimeters off. I used someone's ;) cardboard cut out as a reference. I will try to pronounce the dimples a bit more. LOL "DIMPLES"
***! I totally missed two major pics of the greebs because I put em in a separate folder under "bodysuit." sheesh, good thing I didn't bake em just yet. DCB, I didn't realize that you did take the side shots of the knife greeb. I can't believe I totally missed them.
I am trying to see if I can find some belt clips too for version 2.0, so that it's easier assembly. The whole set will cost more cause of the detail, extra materials, and extra parts for assembly. But they are definately Work in progress right now.
Truly great work Zam.
Better than any others that I have seen.
Tanks, couldn't do it without dcb's pics--he really has great peepers. Couldn't have asked for better pictures.
Looks good so far!
OUCH! casting version 2.0 greebs is a pain in the tookas! I am thinking it'll take at least a month for me to have these ready in kits. A couple have to have a double mold, and the mouse greeb's rope broke off in the mold, and had so many airbubbles cause of the way it sits in the molding material and because of all the little details in the greeb i put in. Those things are just waiting for airbubbles to collect :( dem rapscallions!
Edit, Sorry, but I spoke too soon, the mouse greeblie resin cast version 1.0 is not worth it because it took a lot of sanding damage. The molds were cut up to be used for the newer version 2.0. and I can't release my only original resin casts of version 1.0. Really sorry to those who were interested in version 1.0. They used to look like:
I'd be interested in seeing them!
NICE!!! VERY VERY NICE!!!! I would absolutely love to buy a set when they are all ready!
GREAT pix!
RTV sure starts getting expensive when you get airbubble problems.
Yay! All of them are casted. My hubby and I will be casting them this week in resin for people who want them. PM me if you are interested. I will be sending them out unpainted to the interested parties :) You can view them on the last pic at:
Cool! PM from MM! :D
Can't wait to receive them :)
Well, I decided to paint mine, but unfortunately, I can't give all of you the color schemes that went to each one, cause my husband painted them and didn't keep track. I can tell you this, we used testors acrylic (non-water soluable) paint.
Bottle : Purple, flat aluminum,yellow, gold
Football : flat aluminum+ blue, yellow+white, gold+yellow+??, gold dry brush
Arm: gold+black, ??, ??red
Leg: (Some kinda aqua green), brown, blue+red,
Mouse: flat aluminum+blue, red
Here's ours painted:
So much effort, but what an end result!! Great job!!
Hey those look terrific Zam i am... !!!!
Mucho kudos! :D
Thanks, but technically, I can't take the all the credit...My husband painted them and casted them. I just sculpted them. If any one wants some greebs lemme know I could prolly help you out. But thanks for the chocolatey kudos :D Yummy..
Very Very nice! :)
more Kudos to ya
Zam, those look spectacular. Just curious - did you use any sort of clear topcoat after you painted them, or did you just use the acrylic color?
Yeah he did use a clear top coat.
Hey guys! I am very impressed with all of the hard work you have put into your costumes! Everything I have seen LOOKS GREAT!!!! I decided to start one of my own about a month ago. My first problem is...where to start. Second problem is where to get the materials to supply the first problem... =-)
It depends on if you want to start from scratch like me or buy up stuff and have other people do the work and you assemble...
I dont mind making them. But it really depends on the process and how accessable the materials are. I guess my fear is that they will turn out looking like a tragic ball of goo attached to my suit....
Well, I got brave and got some Sculpy. I played around with it last night and I have a question for you. What is the best way to measure how big these greeblies should be? I looked around on this forum and could not find where anyone had posted. By the way, I started on the one on her right hip by her holster. This should be an intersting journey!
PM sent.
I want to make sure I have my lists correct, if interested, please pm me again with the heading 5 greeblies, your address,your email addy, screen name and real name, and payment method (paypal by debit, western union, US check, moneyorder accepted.) And if you want to wait and combine shipping costs if you are on the neoprene run.
This is the 5 greebs that would be sent: http://www.zamiam.com/Greeblies_files/resincast3.jpg
PM sent !!!
Fixed just a couple of links.
do you need my info for the greeblies again....you have it for the fabric run...not sure if you needed it for this..i do want the set though
gotcha, thanks forgot to update you on my spread sheet. You're listed on it now though.
Just to remember you that I'm still IN for the 5 greeblies ;).
P.S. and if you can... in the rest of the pieces you made (lower armor) as well.
Gotcha Benkenove
The Sniffer is in Awe of all the talent here!
Sniff on my friends! Sniff on!

The silliness continues...
The fans are excited about the NFL lockout ending. The owners and players union say they are happy with the new 10-year deal. The media is probably the most thrilled because they had even more...
The latest NFL Free Agency Timeline
The NFL Lockout is over and both sides gave and took and in the end the legacy of this work stoppage will be incredibly meaningless.
We take a look at the latest NFL Lockout news amidst word the players and owners made significant progress on Saturday.
The NFL lockout is expected to end within the next couple weeks and when it does there are five things every team will need to do to prepare for the 2011 season.
SB Nation St. Louis's annual Fantasy Football Guide devoted to the NFL lockout has been released, and for some reason it's selling much faster than usual.
Several weeks ago the NFL and NFLPA went before the 8th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals and stated their case for why the NFL lockout is legal (NFL's argument) and why it is not legal (NFLPA's argument).
It's been widely reported that officials from the NFL and NFLPA met in Chicago on Wednesday and again on Thursday to discuss the NFL lockout. We thought at one point that the two sides had gotten together on their own which could have provided us with some legitimate optimism that they were working on getting a deal done.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (169 votes).
In short: Lovely run, good views, shame about the poor organisation.In full: Poor organisation of event, but with experience of Nice Works other runs, it is very clear that it was not their fault. It is a shame that the locals are not prepared to help out with an event that will benefit Lydd, as it is a lovely town in a delightful area.It was my first 1/2 marathon and I found it a good run with good scenery and the atmosphere between runners was extremely friendly, even the lambs welcomed the runners back into the village! I hope Nice Work do not lose faith with this event and make it very successful next year.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In full: quite windy on the way out. Big water issues there was only one lady handing out drinks at 3 miles and at 6 miles there weren't any drinks left. A distinct lack of marshalls on the course which was not the organisers fault after all the is only so much one person can do! If the water station problems were resolved it would be a decent race to do.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: PB potential without the windIn full: After reading other posts :1. If you want water then take your own run bottle. How much can you drink from a plastic cup anyway ?2. Toilets. Get there earlier.3. Lack of sign posts to the HQ/start ? Buy a satnav then follow the runners walking to the village hall (it WAS blindingly obvious !!)Unfortunately the race director was let down by people at the last minute,hence the lack of marshalls at water stations.Lets just hope that they have a wind free day next year !!!Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: Good course, pleasant atmosphere spoiled by water running out at mile 6.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: A fast course - perfect in the build up to the marathon. Lovely atmosphere.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: Poor organisationIn full: Yet another Nice work run which is virtually an out and back, surely they can come up with a unique route?They ran out of water at 6 miles so many had to go without water from 3 to 10 miles. Only 2 toilets in the HQ which left a shocking smell in the foyer and a que about half hour long.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: A scenic race, but where was the organisation? In full: This has to be one of the most shambolic races, i've ever been to. No signs to the race HQ, long queues for very overworked toilets, no clear markings/signs for the start line. Not to mention a lack of marshals on course & a complete lack of water (one very overworked marshal manning a water station at 3mile, 6mile was non existent, the race was just about reprieved by the 10 mile station - but this was to little to late).I will not be running this race again. Its only redeeming feature was the scenic countryside. Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: Great New CourseIn full: New course was brilliant made you want to keep running.Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: Excellent feel good race. many other race organisers could learn alot fom this event!!Date of review: March 15, 2010
In short: Great morning !In full: My first time and I had a great run.Flagging towards the end thoughDate of review: March 14, 2010

Congenital dermatoses of the skin may be genetic or arise during embryogenesis because of nongenetic factors. Genetic mutations that cause skin anomalies may be present at birth or become apparent weeks to months later. These late-onset manifestations are referred to as tardive developmental defects. Both congenital and tardive developmental dermatoses are fairly common in domestic animals of all species, with the greatest number of well-defined defects described in cattle and dogs.

Directions to Parking Area:
Follow Route 149 East towards Fort Anne from Lake George. 1.6 miles east of the intersection of Rte 149... more »
Park just before the Shelving Rock Bridge over Shelving Rock Brook. You'll want to head down the road to first climb Shelving Rock Mountain in this guide.
Head right up into the woods from this junction to start climbing. You'll walk through the parking lot past the gate and up the hill on an old road along a brook for just 0.2 miles until you get to the Shelving Rock Mountain Trail.
Take a left on this trail which starts off flat at first than follows switchbacks up.
At this height of land you need to head left. Going right will take you 500 feet down to the Lakeside Trail along the shore of Lake George. Instead, head left and up following yellow trail markers.
At 1,225 feet you are now at the summit of Shelving Rock Mountain. The summit is now overgrown but if you head south down a trail nearby you'll come to an overlook in a clearing. From the Summit head down to POI #2 following the same route you followed up. When you get to POI take a right to head further down the Shelving Rock Road.
Head down this trail to check out beautiful Shelving Rock Falls. When you get to the falls be very careful as the dam at the top of the falls can be wet and slippery so be careful where you step.
Take some time to explore the area around the falls and take photos but be careful. From here follow the trail that follows Shelving Rock Brook down to the lake. When you get back to this point after checking out the shore of the lake you'll want to head back along an old road through the woods to the east back to the parking lot where your... More
When you reach the lake head north along the shore to check out Log Bay. You'll follow this trail until you get to private property, then turn around and follow it back to this point. If you can figure out what day of the summer the local's-only "Log Bay Day" is you'll see a ton of boats in the bay and a lot of beer and music!
The Knapp Private Property area is beyond this to the north and there is no tresspassing so you'll need to turn around and head back the way you came. Or, you can choose to walk up Shelving Rock Road back to the car but going back along the lake is always more beautiful I think. Follow the same route back to the falls and then you'll head a...

The U.S. Postal Service is honoring Alabama native and civil rights icon, Rosa Parks. She is being featured on a "forever stamp."
It is to commemorate what would have been her 100th birthday on February 4th. In 1955 in Montgomery, Parks was arrested after she refused to give up her seat on the bus to make room for a white man. That violated the segregation laws.
Her actions sparked a boycott that eventually led to desegregation of bus transit.

Finally saw A Separation, the Oscar-winning foreign language film. It was only okay. My biggest disappointment was that I thought it was going to be more "about" gender politics in Iran. Those issues did play into the story, but in a fairly minor way. Normally I quite like it when a "foreign" film shows aspects of life and humanity that are universal, could be the people next door. But in this case I felt somewhat let down -- again, mostly because of my expectations. Not a bad film, just not what I was expecting.
Well, I must beg to differ. I thought this was one of the best, if not the best, movies I saw in all of the last year. I just loved it and was not disappointed one bit; I saw it with a friend and it gave us much to talk about - the movie stayed with us for quite a long time.
Like I say, expectations have a lot to do with these things. If I'd seen it before all the hooplah I might have had a different reaction. And I didn't hate it, I just didn't love it. There were some lovely bits, esp. with the grandfather, and the heartbreaking stuck-in-the-middle situation of the daughter. But I thought it focussed far too much on the "mystery case" and not nearly enough on the family dynamics -- which is what I expected it to be about, esp. given the title and the film's write-up.
Trailer for Red Dawn which will be released in November. It looks good but Hemsworth's accent isn't convincing and whichever government is portrayed as invader will not be happy. LOL
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none. William Shakespeare
A movie review and then mention of some imdb.com posts that made me squeal with laughter!
Saw The Odd Life of Timothy Green the other day. Really liked it. Jennifer Garner is great at those sweet, emotional roles. CJ Adams as Timothy Green is the sweetest, most charming kid out there. And Joel Edgerton is kinda porny. Bring some hankies!Spoiler
Although as I said to my friend after the movie ended, if they had milked the scene of digging in the garden where they thought Timothy had returned, especially showing Jennifer Garner's face and reaction...I would have "bawled like a banshee"!!!
Just got "Immortals" from the library. Was reading the message boards at imdb.com and one poster asks(I might have peed myself a bit laughing at that one!!!)Spoiler
"would getting your weiner smashed with a giant mallet really make you infertile?" One response: "Why not give it a try and report back here with the results?"
Couple of thoughts...
Saw the new Bourne movie....boy what a disapointment. Sort of a plot-less movie that even the very good Jeremy Renner couldn't save.
The new Red Dawn also features a major role for Josh Peck of Drake and Josh fame. Huge role for him trying to break into more adult parts.
And I'll be seeing the new Anna movie in large part because Joe Wright is directing.
Last night I finally watched Pi, which had been on my list for a while. (Wow, I'm surprised, it came out in 1998 -- for some reason I thought it was more recent than that.) It was weird. Really weird. Mostly in a good way ... but there were some moments I could have lived without. Not to mention the uber-grainy black&white picture. But still, I'm glad I watched it.
sorry, it was called THE Song of Lunch-a little "nothing" from the BBC-film based on a poem, which is read by Allan rickman, whom I could listen to all day (and all night and like, all forever LOL).
Skip "the
Town"-it's dumb and dumber, which I guess was okay since really all I wanted to see was Jeremy Renner and Ben Afflek.
Going now to see if library has "A Seperation" -was on my to see list, and still want to see. Oh wait, I can't-I am working my way thru the 5 DVDs of Julia Child's The French Chef and I can only hope to God the one I got today does not have anymore horrific cooking imagery! I still have tripe-trauma, aaaaaaaaaaargh!!!
I finally got around to watching The Dictator, and while I did find a lot of the gags really funny, I'm glad that I waited for the DVD.
A couple of weeks ago, I watched Garbo in Anna Karenina for the umpteenth time, which is one of my absolutely favorite classic films, along with Ninotchka, which was on a few days earlier (both on TCM).
Even though it was riddled with commercial interruptions, I watched Blade Runner 2 1/2 times this weekend on SyFy, arguably one of the best Sci-Fi movies ever made (and one of Ridley Scott's best-directed movies). Of course, the young, brooding Harrison Ford doesn't hurt . Then again, I'm partial to the novels of Phillip K. Dick (BR was based on "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? - one of my favorite novels).
I never made it to see the remake of Total Recall - not sure if it's still in the theatre; if it is, I'll try to go see it, if not, I'll watch it On Demand.
"Meryl is from a magic planet where Disney princesses come from, and [Charlie's] hair is a magic carpet." ~~ Stephen Colbert, on The Colbert Report
I read in Entertainment Weekly that The Hunger Games has passed 400 million domestically and over 250 million for the rest of the world (on a budget of 80 million). But the movie won't be released until September in Japan. I think I posted earlier about how many movies are now being released elsewhere in the world before in North America. So I'm surprised that this movie is getting such a late release date for Japan. I would think Japan would be a very good market for this movie. Can't for the life of me think why they are releasing it so late there. Wonder how many paying customers will find a pirated version instead of waiting so long to pay to see it. (Dumb Hollywood!! )
Should I hang my head in shame for never having seen this movie? It looks so (physically) dark. Movie that are more than 75% a screen of blackness is a real pet peeve of mine.
Is it also shameful that I am more for Colin Farrell than Harrison Ford (even the young version)?
It drove me nuts too. I'm also a bit ADD and I found Blade Runner very hard to focus on. I ended up missing more than half of it because I started playing around on my laptop and have felt like I need to rewatch it ever since.
No, Colin Farrell is much hotter.
"I think I saw what happens next It was just a glimpse of you Like looking through a window Or a shallow sea Could you see me? And after all this time It's like nothing else we used to know After all the hangers-on are done Hanging on to the dead lights Of the afterglow" Afterlife - Arcade Fire
Two movies that I give a BIG thumbs up to:
The Mighty (Kieran Culkin, Gena Rowlands, Gillian Anderson, Harry Dean Stanton, Meat Loaf and Sharon Stone
This is one of those movies that should be on those lists "Great movies you've never heard of". Kieran Culkin plays a handicapped youth who forms a friendship with another alienated youth. It's great to see youth people use their imaginations, intelligence and courage to make the most out of their lives. It's also a bit of a weepy, so some Kleenex nearby might be in order. Kieran Culkin is a really great actor...Hollywood needs to give him a lot more work.
Soundtack For A Revolution
A wonderful documentary. From imdb.com: "Tells the story of the American civil rights movement through its powerful music - the freedom songs protesters sang on picket lines, in mass meetings, and in jail cells as they fought for justice and equality."
There are performances of many songs throughout the movie by John Legend, Mary Mary, Richie Havens, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean and Angie Stone (amont others). I downloaded the soundtrack before I even finished watching the movie! This movie made me realize that music should play a much larger role in social change movements.

Following an article posted on Memphis Daily News, ArtSchools.com, a directory of art schools in California, discusses how everyone in a community can benefit from art.
Bohemia, NY (PRWEB) February 24, 2014
ArtSchools.com, a directory of arts schools in California, explains how having art opportunities available for everyone can benefit a community.
According to a February 17th article posted on Memphis Daily News, titled Stage Door Opens Arts Opportunities to All, a new non-profit theater has opened in Memphis. The theater, Stage Door Productions, looks to provide an opportunity for people of all ages to act and perform in shows for the community.
The article says that the founders of Stage Door Productions feel that schools cannot give students exposure to the arts due to low funding. They claim that teachers and other educators want to give students access to the arts, but cannot due to the low funding. Thats where Stage Door comes in. The article says Stage Door holds auditions for people of all ages, and tries to give everyone a part in their productions.
Last summer, Stage Door had a summer camp that attracted over 100 kids. The founders say that over 80 of the kids had no experience in the arts, and that the camp opened their eyes to drama. Stage Door looks to continue to open the eyes of people of all ages by way of the arts.
Andrew Girard, a representative at ArtSchools.com, a directory of art schools in California, says that organizations like Stage Door are great for people to learn more about the arts. Public art programs get people involved in art programs they may never get the chance to be in otherwise, he says. The arts are great for expressing yourself, and by acting in a play or musical at Stage Door, one may find a side of themselves they have never witnessed before. It may spark a deeper interest, and prompt young kids and adults to pursue careers in the arts.
Girard points out that programs like Stage Door are only a beginning for students looking to do something more with arts. Students looking to further their arts skills may want to go to school for the arts after taking part in a program like Stage Door, he says. ArtSchools.com is great for finding top art schools near you.
ArtSchools.com is a comprehensive directory of art degrees, art schools and art-related programs listed and maintained by Monster.com, the leading platform for job seekers. ArtSchools.com is dedicated to assisting prospective artists, teachers, and students find schools, jobs, and programs best suited for their preferences. Whether youre looking for a new job, a new school or a new direction, the ArtSchools.com directory offers insight into top degree programs in a variety of fields, including graphic design, fashion design, interior design, game design, web design, photography and film.

Olympus tunes up its top compacts with the SZ-31MR iHS, TG-820 iHS
New sensors and image processors make these two top-of-the-line models look very interesting.
Completely overshadowed by the announcement of its OM-D E-M5 interchangeable-lens camera, Olympus also updated a couple of its high-end point-and-shoots, the 24x SZ-30MR and Tough TG-810.
The SZ-31MR iHS retains its predecessor's compact design and 24x f3-6.9 25-600mm lens (35mm equivalent), but improves its LCD, image processors, and sensor.
The new model gets a 3.0-inch 920K-dot touch-screen LCD, an improved 16-megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS sensor that Olympus claims improves image detail and noise in low-light shots, and dual TruePic V processors that'll let you capture HD movies and full-resolution photos simultaneously.
The new iHS designation refers to the combo of the backlit CMOS sensor and dual image processors. Olympus says together they'll "dramatically improve low-light performance, speed up camera response time, enhance scene and subject recognition, and double zoom magnification without sacrificing image quality."
The SZ-31MR iHS ships in April for $399.99.
Related stories
Its new sensor/processor combo allows it to shoot at up to 5 frames per second at full resolution and take HDR shots for backlit subjects, which is really nice to have on a rugged camera. Unfortunately, the new version no longer has built-in GPS, something that's also nice to have on a rugged camera. The TG-820 is, however, $100 cheaper than its predecessor at $299.99
Look for it in March.

argothor | Evans via Bierstadt and the Sawtooth Ridge Date Climbed: Aug 18, 1998 | |
Started at Guanella Pass, waded though the famous Scott Gomer willows before the boardwalk was put in, summited Bierstadt and then did the Sawtooth to get to Evans. Headed back to the trailhead without going back over the Sawtooth. Got to the car just as the skies let loose with buckets of rain. | ||

Jerry S | Long Day Date Climbed: Sep 22, 2007 | |
Started at summit lake parking lot, went up Evans, across the sawtooth, up Bierstadt, back across the sawtooth and finally up Spalding to get get back to the parking lot. The top of Evans was nice but windy. We got to the summit by 7:30am so we had the summit all to ourselves until we left about 30 minutes later. GW | ||

Fun climb via the Sawtooth. For the most part at least--with all the snow on Evans West Ridge, routefinding was difficult when I couldn't see the cairns. My profile pic at the time of this posting is me eating a PBJ somewhere before reaching that ridge. | ||

BeginnerClimber | Bad Times via Guanella Pass Date Climbed: Sep 15, 2007 | |
Took 2 of my kids and 2 of my friends' kids (16, 14, 13, and 11) up Mt Evans through Guanella Pass on a morning after a long hard rain (and snow higher up). The willows were HORRIBLE and the trail was sooooo BOGGY and MUDDY until we got around the hill, and even then we had to worry about the occasional bog in the middle of a dry path. Anyway, it was a great day because the kids made a great team. The wind was horrible at higher altitudes, but most of the kids were well dressed (albeit a little wet after the bogs). The 14 year old twisted her ankle during the way up, so it made for a VEEEEERRRY long day. We started at 7AM but didn't make the truck until 8:15PM amidst flashlights and trailfinding. For 2 of the kids, it was their 1st 14er (heck of a 1st one, huh?), for another kid it was his 2nd, another one her 4th, and this was my 14th. Gonna try to hit a few more before the snow sets in. Truly, I'd volunteer to be part of a team that created a TRUE path through the bogs. Anyone up for it? Let me know! | ||

We climbed from Summit Lake, all the way around the ridge to the summit. Met a few people on the way, but mostly sparse. Got sick on the summit, but made it down. I plan to go back and climb it from the Guanella Pass Trailhead. | ||

GeorgeJames | B-Day Hike Date Climbed: Sep 8, 2007 | |
Over from Bierstadt via the really fun Sawtooth Ridge. Did not arrive til the afternoon, and the post labor-day road closure made for far fewer people on top, only about 6 or 7 while I was up there. Was lucky to not get rained on during the trip back to Guanella Pass. A great birthday hike! | ||

slowpoke | via Sawtooth Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2007 | |
Started on Evans road at the Epaulet saddle and descended the gully to the Lake Fork valley. Ascended Bierstadt from just above Abyss Lake. Took the Sawtooth over to Evans and back down the road to the car. | ||

shannarae2k | Beautiful day, Ugly Summit Date Climbed: Aug 26, 2007 | |
Completed the well marked Mt. Evans Loop. So we hit Mt. Spaulding AND Evans! This was 14er #10 fr me. WOO HOO! The West Ridge of Evans is full of fun climbing! But alas, the summit was SO packed! I have never been on a summit with so many people! Nor have I ever smelled exhaust at 14,000 feet... | ||

Aspen | Route Climbed: Sawtooth from Bierstadt Date Climbed: Jul 24, 1999 | |
This is not the 1st time I climbed Mt. Evans but it's the first time I did it via the Sawtooth Ridge. 3 friends came with me; we parked at Bierstadt. We had offers from tourists to take us back to our parking as a storm approach but we didn't care to. Instead, we went back the same way and got hit by rain and hail. I slipped 40 feet down a path but managed to find an unused trail. My friends knew I was ok when they heard my coded whistle (always carry a whistle with you). We made it back to the car with bit of hypothermia and discovered that I had a flat in the rear passenger tire. Hahaha!! What a SUPER Great Day! The next weekend we found ourselves exploring the Maroon Bells. | ||

Brandon Fuller | Mt. Evans Ascent Road Race Date Climbed: Jun 16, 2006 | |
Instead of the usual boring climb, I ran a race to the top! | ||

ouray19 | Mt. Evans Date Climbed: Jul 23, 2006 | |
Purposefully did this mountain on a Monday. Only ran into 2 other people on the trail, of course the summit was another story since you can drive there. Kind of weird seeing a parking lot and people in street clothes. I actually felt kind of "out-of-place" and grubby for the first time on a 14'er!! | ||

K_G_Wright | Lovely! Date Climbed: May 15, 1989 | |
Just signing the log. Growing up in Evergreen, this was my backyard playground. I've climbed this one many times, using nearly all the routes, from every direction, in every season, and all conditions. If you don't want to do the overcrowded summer westerly/"Tooth" routes, a long fun route to try is from "Camp Rock", west of upper Bear Creek in Evergreen, to Bear Track Lakes and then a line up to the upper south faces of Evans. The couloir out of Chicago Creek Basin is fun 4th class stuff too. Just before the road opens, or just after it closes, the road up from Echo Lake is an awesome mountain bike trip. In winter, the road up is an outstanding cross country ski route. Good times!!! | ||

vanny37 | Willows! Date Climbed: Aug 11, 2007 | |
Climbed via the Sawtooth and West Ridge. Staying on top of the ridge is much more fun than the trail on the south side of the ridge. The willows on the descent lived up to their reputation. | ||

The New French Hacker-Artist Underground
Tags: Urbanity, hacking the city, preservation, activism
Interesting article on a group of French urban hackers-cum-preservationists who prowl Paris' underground and fix clocks. Go figure.
Did The Sopranos do more harm than good?: HBO and the decline of the episode
Tags: TV, series, storytelling, content
Thoughtful article on the state and evolution of storytelling in an on-demand world. Good read for any series geek (and aren't we all?)
Africa's Dirty Wars
Tags: Africa, Kony, war, colonialism, superpowers
This month we saw the rise and demise of Kony 2012. This is a nice background read about how Africa's wars are changing after the breakdown of ideology and the conquest of capitalism in a post-Cold War world.
A Code of Conduct for Content Aggregators & Stop calling it curation
Tags: curation, sharing, web, webiquette
"Discovery of information is a form of intellectual labor," she said. "When we don't honor discovery, we are robbing somebody's time and labor. The Curator's Code is an attempt to solve some of that." This is the daftest thing I have heard in a long time. Other people agree with me, which is nice (See the Stop Calling it Curation reply). But in the end it Matt Langer sums it up quite well when he says "since by calling the activity of people who traffic in links "curation" instead of "sharing" we imbue it with all sorts of hollow importance and circumscribe it as something wholly apart from the selfless and benevolent sharing of knowledge."
Why I left Google
Tags: google, social, ads, privacy
I love Google. I remember when they came out with the whole Do No Evil thing and I thought "Finally. Here's someone who gets it". However, in the past couple of years, the rumblings from the machine room have grown louder. This article might be pointing to some of the things that need a loving hand to get right (again). Also, it deals with the great Ads and Privacy conundrum which, in my line of work, is always interesting.
Spam-erican Apparel
Tags: zazzle, computer generated design
If you only read one thing – this should be it. Hilarious hijinx ensue as people seek to automate product design, as seen in non-sensical t-shirt designs on Zazzle. Especially relevant with all this talk of the New Aesthetic going on (see below).
Bank of America – Too Crooked to Fail
Tags: banks, bailouts, #fail, snafu
Ahh bankers and banking. This choice quote from the article kind of sums the whole thing up: "Worst of all, they completely suck at banking". But if you, like me, can't get enough outrage against a system that really should fail, but for some reason doesn't - this article is a good read.
You will never kill piracy, and piracy will never kill you and the follow up Lies, damn lies and Piracy
Tags: piracy, Hollywood, business models, copyright
Good though hardly revolutionary article about piracy and Hollywood. Much might be old hat to people who follow the debate closely. However, Paul Tassi does have an intersting point when he says in his follow up: "I would argue that releasing crappy movies has a far greater effect on the film industry bottom line than piracy ever could.", where he describes the massive losses Hollywood has incurred over movies that basically, suck (and we all know it).
Reacting to the New Aesthetic; Trains, Spiderwebs And Ship Minds
Tags: new aesthetic, visual culture
The New Aesthetic is terribly exciting if not just because it is New! and a bourgeoning aesthetic movement. Will people look back and treat the New Aesthetic like they do Modernism? And will I be able to say, Yes! I was alive and in London when it all kicked off!? In any case, this article might not make the most succinct attempt at nailing down what the hell it actually is, but it contains enough links and for anyone interested in having a good poke around in this new-fangled field.
London's Overthrow
Tags: London, social issues
China Mieville describes a London always on the brink of collapse, yet somehow weirdly functional nonetheless. Good post-riots, post-banking scandal read.
Developing World: Beyond the frontiers of Science Fiction
Tags: sciecne fiction, Africa, technology
I am a science fiction geek, no doubt. I also grew up in Mozambique and Tanzania, which to most in the West are about as un-science fictiony as it it gets. The idea of a science fiction not born out of the fervid techno-monopolies of the West is fascinating and this article is enough to flood my brain with images of shantytown circuitry and low-fi, high-tech bio-tech black markets. Jonathan Dotse sums it up beautifully here; "It's becoming increasingly apparent that the future will not be a monopoly of the current superpowers, but lies in the hands of tech-savvy youth from around the world, trying desperately to survive at all costs in an increasingly asymmetrical world."
Legos: How One Vulgar, Ambidextrous Toy Opened the Door for Gay "Marriage" in Denmark
Tags: Lolz
Christwire is hillarious. The debate on gay marriage is ridiculous. This marries the two and throws in some LEGO to boot.

Country Music Pioneers
A uniquely American genre, country music got its start in the South in the early 19th century, when immigrants blended their Old World sounds with African-American musical styles. But it was the lives of the musicians, as told in their songs, that turned country into one of the best-loved musical styles in the United States. Listeners could relate to Jimmie Rodgers' stories of the railroad in "The Brakeman's Blues"; Hank Williams' struggle with depression in tunes such as "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"; and the promise of finding someone to rely on in George Jones' "Walk Through This World With Me." And its the universal struggles of love, loss, joy and longing found in each country song that keeps this music—and its performers—relevant throughout time.
Country Music Pioneers 6 people in this group
Country Legends
When it comes to singing about struggle and emotion, there are few genres that match the intensity of country music. Country music was born from musicians that were brave enough to wear their hearts on their sleeves from happiness to heartache. Because of country icons like Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton and Jimmie Rodgers, this southern, soulful genre has grown to become loved by many. Browse through the legends that established country music as the popular genre that it is today.

Vegas on River serves up successDecember 03, 2012, 10:00 pm by Glynis Crawford Smith More than 150 guests enjoyed Vegas by the River Friday night, raising some $20,000 for continuing construction of the Andy Roddick Tennis Center in Granite Shoals. "Vegas by the River was a spectacular success," said ARF Director of Fundraising Dave Holder. "Our volunteers, donors and sponsors were awesome. We look forward to building on this success in future years as we continue raising funds for the tennis center and the youth tennis program." The project began in 2010 with construction of two covered QuickStart tennis courts for youth and senior players. Funds from a circus event in Granite Shoals were added to a $5,000 US Tennis Association (USTA) grant and local businesses and private donors have continued to build a fund toward construction of a 16-court center. The casino fundraiser tradition began last year with a cruise on Lake Buchanan and continued this year at the Marble Falls Lakeside Pavilion venue. In
addition to use by the Marble Falls Independent School District for elementary
physical education classes, the QuickStart courts are the site for after-school
tennis instruction by US Professional Tennis Association Pro Randy Savage. The
ARF sponsors youth tennis programs in Florida, Idaho and Texas to develop
personal and sports skills for a lifetime. For more of this story, see Tuesday's Highlander. |

Hang tight!
Recipe by AUNTYLENE
"This sweet but zippy salsa is a great way to use summer fruits and vegetables. Try it on pork or chicken at your next cookout."
Watch video tips and tricks
20 tomatoes, chopped
6 onions, finely chopped
5 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and chopped
5 pears - peeled, cored and chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
4 cups white sugar
1 cup distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons salt
4 tablespoons pickling spice, wrapped in cheesecloth
This is a wonderful fruit salsa. I noticed another reviewer said the person submitting this recipe didn't know what salsa was and what it was supposed to taste like. I think the reviewer doesn't know what you're supposed to do with FRUIT salsas. This is wonderful on pork chops and chicken from the grill. This is NOT salsa to dip your chips in! Wonderful flavor, great way to use up the abundance of wonderful fresh local peaches on my kitchen counter. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
I made this recipe in 2004 and canned it. I cut the sugar and added hot peppers. We really like it and I will make it again this year. We like it with chips.
14 Ratings
When I went on vacation at Rhode Island to visit my best friend, She was serving this salsa and it is the best salsa I have ever tasted! I wish I could rate it infinity!
This recipe is fantastic!! I replaced pears with nectarines and added lots of chopped fresh hot peppers to make it spicy and it turned out great. Awesome on crackers, fish or chicken!!!
Good Recipe! Only added 3 Cups of sugar. Next time I will try 2. Just a little to sweet for me.
I thought this was a great dish! The only thing I changed was I didn't add the green bell pepper because I'm not too crazy about that taste. I could have used more peaches for more peach flavor and next time I'll be adding some jalapenos or some hot banana peppers for a little zip. I served this over grilled chicken and rice.
My mom and I make this salsa occasionally and I was surprised to find the same recipe on this site. We add jalepenos for kick (no seeds) and a few less pears. I love sweet salsa, not hot or spicy, so this recipe is great! She says fresh peaches/pears are best, but we've also used canned and I can't tell the difference.
I have had this and it's really good on chicken and pork and it's great on ritz crackers too. I am glad to find the recipe and will definitely make it. Thanks alot.

Ocean Ridge Mansion Ocean Hammock, Private Pool, Beach, Hdtv

St. Augustine house description
Experience the vacation of a lifetime in our 3-storey, 7200 square-foot beach house at Ocean Hammock. Poised at the edge of the beachfront dunes, it has sweeping views of the ocean, not to mention a private pool, home theatre, and more!
Perfect for a family reunion or several families of friends, our custom-built home offers blissful luxury in a setting that is nothing short of paradise. Spectacular dawns fill the vast sky every morning, and the sparkling sea changes before your eyes. With 2½ miles of private beach to explore, you can spend every day in the surf and never see the same stretch of sand twice. And indoors, there's even more to do and see!
Each floor of Ocean Ridge Mansion offers a large, beautifully appointed living area, making it easy for your big group to divide into smaller units so that everybody can do as he or she likes. The first floor is devoted to entertainment, centered around the home theatre. This room contains a projection-sized HDTV, ultra-comfy 'theatre seats,' and a professional sound system! There is also a game room with a full-sized pool table and a handsomely outfitted wet bar. Beachfront living doesn't have to mean being outdoors all the time -- make yourself at home here and enjoy!
The second floor is the main living area of the house, and you'll feel homey warmth of the surroundings as soon as you enter our living room. Full of interesting architectural details, it is extraordinarily beautiful. Enormous windows, a high ceiling, and plenty of lounging space give this room the feel of a perfectly appointed retreat. Wander out through the sliding glass doors and enjoy a casual meal on the balcony overlooking the beach, or sink into our very comfortable sofa and indulge in a nap. This is your 'at home' space!
Our state-of-the-art kitchen is a pleasure to use. Big, spotlessly clean, and stocked with deluxe appliances that seem to make every task just a little easier, it even offers ocean views! Now this is the way to fix dinner -- while enjoying the sight of the crashing waves on the cinnamon-colored sands!
The second floor also includes a formal dining room with a generously sized table seating 6 comfortably, 8 in a pinch. This room also leads out to the balcony, so if the mood strikes you, open the doors and extend the dining room right into the open air!
The third floor contains a penthouse-style living area, with enormous windows offering a bird's-eye view of sky, sea, and dunes. Spectacular!
Ocean Ridge Mansion contains 5 bedrooms, each with a private attached bathroom, plus a queen-sized sleeper sofa in the home office. If your group is primarily adults, you will find it so convenient to be able to give each couple their own bathroom! It eliminates that 'camping' feeling familiar to all of us when we have to keep our toiletry bags packed and out of the way all vacation long.
All of the bedrooms are spacious, lovely, and very comfortable, but the master suite takes pride of place. Located on the second floor, it is decorated entirely in white. A king-sized bed cradles you as you gaze at the wall-mounted TV or watch the sun rise outside your sliding glass doors. Slip out onto your balcony for stargazing, or take a relaxing bath in the Jacuzzi in your en suite bathroom.
The second, third, and fifth bedrooms feature queen-size beds, while the fourth contains 2 double beds. Again, this is a handy arrangement for couples, but also convenient for children, who will love the novelty of 'grown up beds' rather than the usual twin-size!
Ocean Ridge Mansion is located in Ocean Hammock, a gated oceanfront community in Palm Coast. Here you are just minutes from the renowned Ocean Hammock Golf Course, as well as world-class shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Of course, to do any of these things you will have to leave Ocean Ridge Mansion, which might be difficult! Come stay here soon . . . and have the time of your life!
