Post subject: Need help in choosing printer
I am considering buying a color laser printer (probably sometime in July) and currently am considering one of two choices: either HP Color Laserjet 2550L or Samsung CLP550. The HP model is listed as working perfectly in Unixprinting website, but there is no record on the Samsung model. However, both printers are listed as having Postscript and Linux support on the netstore website so I guess they should both work.
The HP model is tempting due to its relatively small size, relatively light weigth (a bit over 20 kg) and cheap price as I don't have much space and am not too strong. On the other hand the Samsung model is larger and heavier (over 30 kg) but has duplex printing and has gotten better reviews in local computer magazines. I presume it should work fine due to listed Postscript and Linux support even though the CLP500 model is listed as "Paperweight" on unixprinting site.
Which one should I choose ? The price difference is no big deal but I wouldn't like to lug around a large and heavy box.

While I can't recommend the Samsung printer, I notice that they have a Linux driver available for download for the CLP-550.
Have a look
. The manual, also available for download, might tell you more.

Post subject: RE: Need help in choosing printer
We have a Samsung CLP-500N at work. It claims Linux support, and even came with a Linux driver, but I haven't (yet) managed to make it work.
Installing it put the Linux Printing System on my SuSE 8.2 box - it appears to send the print, but nothing comes out of the printer.
Now, this is the "N" version, that contains it's own print server, and all the instructions that come with the Linux driver are for the non-"N" version (parallel or USB), so there's a good chance I got something wrong when setting it up. I didn't pursue it at the time because (a) I'm planning to update to SuSE 9.2 as soon as I get some time, (b) I'm too busy right now and (c) it isn't important - we got the printer to print brochure inserts from Windoze.
As a Windoze printer it's great - the quality is fantastic, and it's pretty quick (especially compared to the Colour LaserJet 5 I'm running at home
). The built-in duplex is a must-have for work.
If you are prepared to play around a bit, the Samsung could well be a good one to go for. Especially if it has Postscript (the 500 doesn't) as it then becomes very easy to drive - just send raw PS to it.
Otherwise, HP are usually a pretty safe bet...
Hope this helps

I went to the HP site for you and found the HP Color Laserjet 2550L does offer duplex printing. I also went to linuxprinting.org and found additional information about Samsung, you may or may not have known. Here's the link:
The comments don't seem to be too supportive, but they don't completely dismiss this Samsung model.
The printer driver you use, will also determine whether you get full functionality of your printer. Not all printer drivers are created equal.
For a fully functioning printer driver for the HP, goto:
Hope this helps.

Post subject: RE: Need help in choosing printer
I have been using the Samsung CLP-500 with the network model and have no problems with printing in over 12 months. I have used Red Hat 9.0, Suse Linux 9.0/9.1/9.2 and it is just a couple of little things - you need to find one particular set of instructions and download the driver from the US site.
Details are below:
Samsung CLP-500 (with Network) Printer Setup via Samsung software:
1 - Samsung Laser Printer User's Guide is on the CD at /manual/EnGuide.pdf. See section 7.10 of the guide for Linux setup.
1a - Alternate - Download 20040224170114656_lpp-1.1.2-7-i386.tar.gz from US Web site and extract to /opt/samsung (preferred)
2 - To install insert CD (or go to directory /opt/samsung) that came with printer and run as root "setup.sh". Software is installed to /usr/local/linuxprinter. Expert install method used but all default options were accepted as follows:
Install part = /usr/local/linuxprinter
Path for sym links = /usr/bin
Install common files = Y
Install CUPS = N
Install printing system = Y
Print system = CUPS
Install startup menu items (KDE or Gnome) = Y
3 - To uninstall run as root "linux-uninstall".
4 - In my case for SuSE 9.1 due to linux-config authorisation fail I changed in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf "AuthType BasicDigest" to "AuthType None" and restarted CUPS (rccups restart) prior to using linux-config. Set your permissions to suit your needs. Read the docs starting with the comments in cupsd.conf.
4a - Open "linux-config" program as root to add printer. Use shell or KDE or Gnome. Using KDE: K > Applications > Configuation Tool
4b - Click "Add Printer". This button is only available for root. A CUPS authentication window will appear asking for user (root) and password. Note that CUPS permissions must be taken care of to make the connection.
4c - Make selections:
Model = Samsung CLP-500 Series (SPL-C)
Connection = Socket (Direct to Port Printing); Settings 192.168.0.2; Port 9100
Settings = Extra - 600 DPI; Duplex - Long Edge; Page Size - A4;
Queue = no changes made
4c - Click "OK" and window should appear with message:
"New Printer 'lp' Successfully Configured!"
This printer will appear at
5 - Print test page, adjust settings, and trouble shoot as needed.
6 - Change cupsd.conf back to original settings and restart cups again.

Post subject: RE: Need help in choosing printer
Thanks, Steve - I'm hoping to find the time to update my work box to SuSE 9.2 in the next couple of weeks so I'll give the printer another go at the same time.
I did find the Linux driver & instructions on the Samsung CD, but it seemed to be all geared up for non-network stuff. It may be that SuSE 8.2 is doing to me what your 9.1 system did to you, and that it will all work "out of the box" with 9.2... we'll see
Hope this helps,

Well, that'll teach me to give up too soon
I printed out this thread for future reference, and on a whim I sent it to the Samsung CLP-500N ... it printed perfectly !
I don't recall restarting CUPS when I originally installed the printer driver, but I have rebooted since then so I'm guessing that was the missing link.
Many thanks, Steve, for prodding me into trying again - this is a fantastic printer for the money, and I can now wholeheartedly recommend it !
Hope this helps,

Post subject: RE: Need help in choosing printer
Useful information here for the Samsung CLP 500. I have been using three of them under various windows for a good few months. It's an excellent printer albeit a bit expensive on refils (but then we do a lot of printing) I haven't found anyone that can refil the cartridges yet either.
One small quirk with one of them being the used toner sensor the toggle in front of it got in the way of the light sensor even when a new one was fitted - i simply broke it off and keep an eye on the used toner level now. (As always be careful if emptying it - it is carcinogenic as is all toner.)
quality speed etc are all great and its quiet too.
I am just about to set up some (Suse 9.3) Linux machines, as a newbie to Linux if not IT generally, and the above will really help in knowing that a/. its possible so I won't spit the dummy out with it until I get there now and b/. the techie info contained above. Thanks for publishing it up.

We had that problem on ours recently as well - had the sensor replaced under warranty. The engineer initially tried modifying the toggle, but the problem returned in a couple of days. He then fitted a new sensor, and it's worked fine since.
Apparently this has happened to a few of these printers - sometimes trimming a bit off of the toggle works, other times it doesn't. Sounds like they had a batch of not-quite-up-to-spec sensors.
By the way - the toggle is only there to detect if the used toner bottle is missing (or not fitted properly) - even without it the sensor should still detect if the used toner bottle is full or not.
Hope this helps,

Choose Your Birth Environment
Your personal philosophy and vision for your birth will help you determine the right birth environment. The vast majority of women in the United States give birth in hospitals. While this is the dominant choice, it is not necessarily your only one. In many locations, women may also have the choice of birthing in free-standing birth centers, hospital-based birth centers or in their own homes. Which of these choices best matches your philosophy and vision? For instance, women wishing to have a natural, unhurried birth generally have a hard time finding support for this choice in a hospital setting. Likewise, women who believe that birth is potentially dangerous might not feel safe birthing at home. Where will you feel best supported and safest birthing your child?
We know that the majority of women today birth in hospitals, so we want to provide information on some of the lesser known options as well. Given that birth centers are limited in the US and many women do not have access to them, more and more women are choosing to birth their babies at home as an alternative to a hospital birth. Below are some articles that help to better explain the home birth option.
Coming soon! We are working to build out additional pages of content related to Hospital, Home and Birth Centers. Sign up for our mailing list to be notified when new sections are added to the site such as "Tips for Having a Great Hospital Birth" and "Birth Center Overview."
Further reading on this topic:
The Business of Being Born
The documentary The Business of Being Born represents a break from the view of childbirth America usually sees – and has come to accept as normal. Instead, the film features a series of women, including executive producer Ricki Lake, giving birth with "surprising serenity," on their own terms. "It's a practical guide to childbirth that's really going to help women discover natural options and take back the birth experience", says director, Abby Epstein.
Waterbirth: The Heart and Soul of Gentle Birth
The very surprising part about birth is that your body, hormonally speaking, knows how to give birth and your baby knows how to be born. The task then is to surrender to the powerful energy moving through you in order for the body to do its work. This article examines all the ways in which water really helps accomplish that seemingly impossible task.
Choosing a Home Birth
Choosing the appropriate place to birth your child is an important maternity care decision. In the United States the vast majority of women choose to birth in a hospital setting. However, for many women, birthing at home or at a birth center, with a qualified and experienced care provider, is also a safe and legal option. This article provides some guidelines to help you determine whether homebirth is a good choice for you.
Understanding the Research on Home Birth
The debate over home birth is a largely ideological one in which information from research studies sometimes goes disregarded. Valuable studies of home birth do exist, though several factors affect how definitive they can be. This article empowers the reader to understand the available data, its limitations, and what conclusions can be drawn.
Obstetric Statement of Care
"Obstetrics and gynecology is a discipline dedicated to the broad, integrated medical and surgical care of women's health throughout their lifespan. The combined discipline of obstetrics and gynecology requires extensive study and understanding of reproductive physiology, including the physiologic, social, cultural, environmental and genetic factors that influence disease in women. This study and understanding of the reproductive physiology of women gives obstetricians and gynecologists a unique perspective in addressing gender-specific health care issues.
Preventive counseling and health education are essential and integral parts of the practice of obstetricians and gynecologists as they advance the individual and community-based health of women of all ages." [http://www.acog.org/from_home/acogscope.cfm]
Family Practice Statement of Care
Family medicine is a three-dimensional specialty, incorporating
(1) knowledge
(2) skill
(3) process
Although knowledge and skill may be shared with other specialties, the family medicine process is unique. At the center of this process is the patient-physician relationship with the patient viewed in the context of the family. It is the extent to which this relationship is valued, developed, nurtured and maintained that distinguishes family medicine from all other specialties. Maternal/child care is integral to the discipline of family medicine. All family physicians are trained in the care of pregnancy and common pregnancy problems.
Midwives Model of Care
The Midwives Model of Care is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life processes. The Midwives Model of Care includes:
• Monitoring the physical, psychological, and social well-being of the mother throughout the childbearing cycle
• Providing the mother with individualized education, counseling, and prenatal care, continuous hands-on assistance during labor and delivery, and postpartum support
• Minimizing technological interventions
• Identifying and referring women who require obstetrical attention
The application of this woman-centered model of care has been proven to reduce the incidence of birth injury, trauma, and cesarean section.
Osteopathy Statement of Care
You are more than just the sum of your body parts. That's why doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) practice a "whole person" approach to health care. Instead of just treating specific symptoms, osteopathic physicians concentrate on treating you as a whole.

Buena Vista residents urge city to save their homes
Original post made on Oct 2, 2012

Hip-hip hooray for the Buena Vista residents! So glad you are speaking out! You are an important part of this community!
on Oct 2, 2012 at 9:40 am
I live in Escondido. We had two parks, both senior, close over 15 yrs ago. Our residents were all organized. Our city supported us & required the converting parks to buy the homes at their value in a park, or move the home to another park. One resident wanted to move back to Texas & the park owner had to move him & his home. Some other residents sold their home to the park & moved into new senior housing just built, right across the street from the park. The park owner had to pay the difference in rent for the first two yrs. The city had a rep work with each resident & each resident was satisfied with his/her own deal. State laws require re-location when a park closes. Residents should organize & elect leaders to work with the city & park owner to remedy each residents' situation. With over 150 residents in this park, they could/should well afford to chip in $10 ea & hire an attorney for advice/protection. Wouldn't hurt for
GSMOL reps to get off their butts & help. The best way to get new members is to ACCOMPLISH something besides rhetoric.

If you wish to support the residents at Buena Vista Mobile Home Park (established, 1926) and affordable housing in Palo Alto, email email@example.com. I will add you to the support list to take various actions we can coordinate, write letters and emails to the City and PAUSD, and be at some public hearings, etc.
Also - Palo Alto adopted IT'S OWN mobile home park conversion ordinance in 2001 to protect Buena Vista which is recognizes as a major source of affordable housing for low and very low income people - many are considered the working poor. So the city and any developer and the owner must follow our Palo Alto law regarding this.

youth and inexperience
you cant pick up a #1 draft pick in every position every year. all players mature at different levels. take daunte for instance. instead of checking down on the 2nd and 24 play he tried to stick it to moss. if i am not mistaken N8 was open on the play for at least 10 yds. inexperience. he knows to take what the d gives him but his impatience with the ball made him think of getting it all back instead of doing what he should.
ej with his head turned on the last td. inexperience. he knows to stick with the man he had but inexperience and youth made him peek back at the wrong moment.
moss not running the sharpest of routes or not putting himself(everytime) where he needs to be if daunte needs help because still thinks his athletic ability will take him the farthest. not true, the attention to detail and doing what you are supposed to do every time and every situation. and that goes for every aspect of the game. have to run every scenario over and over in your head, with every intention of knowing that it will be your number that will be called. and that goes for the D too.
but the key to the whole team is daunte. he needs to step up his leadership role and take the team over.
last but certainly not least the coaching. tice for letting linehan call all these gunslinger plays and getting us in trouble with running the clock out, and or scoring again! there were plays for positive yardage and you should not let one holding call effect calling it again. it was one negative and there were how many nice runs of 5 to 10 yds. the short plays to wiggy, etc. i still am not sure about cottrell. did he tell shaw that the ball would be coming to him on the one all out blitz? dunno. and shaw should know that the ball was coming his way. hell, i knew and i dont know squat.
so that is my take on what is going on. as soon as the players figure out how to play the game at a championship level, thats where we will be. lets hope they do soon, i like this team. they play with so much heart adn enthusiasm, not so much in the brain dept. lol

The Hen House is compatible with triathlon, road, and mountain bikes.
The Hen House is TJ Tollakson's personal invention to fly with his bicycle. As a professional triathlete, TJ travels with his bike anywhere from 10-16 times per year. He does the majority of his travel on United Airlines and if he were to travel with his bike in a traditional bike box ($100 each way), just 10 trips would total whopping $2000 in bike fees alone! In response to these costly charges TJ developed the Hen House to fit within the 62 linear inch requirement for standard luggage on all major airlines. The weight is minimal, the packing is snug and to this day TJ has never had any damage to his bicycle in over 5 years of flying with the Hen House. Both the frame and wheel bag offer a significant amount of excess space to pack in gear, clothing and other travel needs. TJ often eliminates the use an extra piece of luggage and packs the majority of his travel needs in the Hen House!
Both bags fit nicely on the conveyer belt and will come out with regular checked luggage upon arrival at your destination. Since additional handing is not required for the Hen House, we have yet to incur an excess luggage fee.
The frame bag is roughly a parallelogram and is sized to be 30" on the ground, 24" high, and 8" thick, a total of 62 linear inches. The frame bag holds the complete bicycle frame, handlebars/aerobars, fork (removed from the head tube) and the crank. The interior pocket of the frame bag easily accommodates the pedals, seat post and saddle, and other small accessories. The Hen House will accommodate most bikes (XS-L), but will not fit many bikes with an integrated seat post. Excessively large frame sizes will typically fit in the Hen House with the removal of the crank.
Measuring 30" on the ground, 24" high and 8" thick, the Hen House satisfies the 62 linear inch requirement for standard luggage and avoids those costly bike fees!

The PFW staff brings you its late-week fantasy tips for quarterbacks, in which Matthew Stafford and Ben Roethlisberger are recommended plays. Meanwhile, Russell Wilson might be a strong sleeper play.
Last week, Lions QB Matthew Stafford had a tough matchup. The Seahawks have a strong defense and an excellent secondary. There was a case to sit him if you had the QB depth to do so. Well, Stafford proceeded to show why he's so hard to bench, passing for 352 yards and three TDs and rushing for another score in a 28-24 Detroit win. In Week Nine, Stafford has a favorable matchup, and the decision on whether to start or sit him is quite simple, really. With the Jaguars surrendering 251.3 passing yards per game, Stafford will be a must-play for many fantasy owners.
Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger is on pace for 32 TD passes, which would equal his career-high. He's a strong starting option in Week Nine against the Giants, who are allowing the fourth-most yards per passing play.
He might not be able to keep up his pace of the past three weeks (1,010 yards, nine TDs, one INT), but Buccaneers QB Josh Freeman is still a nice option in deeper leagues vs. the Raiders in Week Nine. Oakland's pass defense has improved to 20th in the league, but it has faced a combination of Blaine Gabbert, Chad Henne, Brady Quinn and Matt Cassel over the past two weeks. Oakland's defense is in for tougher test against Freeman and Tampa Bay's vertical passing game.
Seahawks QB Russell Wilson shapes up as an intriguing fantasy option this Sunday for a couple of reasons. For starters, there are indications that Pete Carroll is starting to loosen the reins on his rookie. Good for at least a handful of heaves downfield per game, Wilson had a nice game against the Lions last week (236 passing yards and a pair of TDs) and finally has started to establish a rapport with No. 1 WR Sidney Rice. One other reason to like Wilson this Sunday: He will be going up against a Vikings secondary that has lost Chris Cook, its top corner (broken arm).
Yet another poor performance from the second-year QB in Week Eight and rumors of a Steve Smith trade might have had owners of Cam Newton feeling extra scared this Halloween, but fear not — he has a matchup against the Redskins' 32nd-ranked pass defense this week. Newton has been one of the biggest fantasy disappointments this season, and he has provided very little production over the past three weeks (one TD, three interceptions). He's still worth a start in most formats this week, though.
If you're thinking of rolling with Texans QB Matt Schaub against Buffalo's 22nd-ranked pass defense, keep in mind that the Texans, a team that wants to wear down opponents on the ground, will be even more inclined to do so against the Bills, who have surrendered an alarming 6.0 yards per carry. Schaub will take his chances off play action, per usual, but you might want to consider other options this week.
The Titans Sunday will give QB Matt Hasselbeck his sixth consecutive start in place of Jake Locker, though his matchup against the Bears' No. 1-ranked defense is one we would recommend avoiding. Hasselbeck has been efficient in recent weeks, but he hasn't seen a stop unit the caliber of the Bears' since his three-turnover dud against the Texans in Week Four.
Brady Quinn is out and Matt Cassel is in for the Chiefs. Cassel is not a great play; in fact, we would label him as "emergency" at best in Thursday's game.
We hear that Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) has started to do some light throwing but is far from being able to play, which would appear to keep the ball in John Skelton's court for the foreseeable future — for better or worse.

text: Getting back to the genesis of this post, is anyone out there actually getting their 600's that they have ordered delivered? Any insight as to why Canon is taking so long to get this lens to their customers. I have had mine ordered for some time now and am still waiting to get my hands on it...thanks for your replies!You noted that you have had yours ordered "for some time now" - how long? I have been waiting 2 and 1/2 months now and still no indication from either my dealer of Canon Canada when it is likely to arrive. Greatland, where are you and who did you order it from, not that it is the dealer's fault, but it is still his "problem". My new tripod and gimbal head should arrive in the next couple of days and I would really like to have my 600 II to test it out - obviously not yet .

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - The New England Patriots have signed tight end Matthew Mulligan.
Mulligan was released on Saturday by the Green Bay Packers after signing as a free agent in April. He spent the 2008 season on Miami's practice squad after joining the Dolphins as a rookie free agent out of Maine. He played the next three seasons with the New York Jets and last season with the St. Louis Rams.
Primarily a blocker, Mulligan had eight catches in 16 games last season. In his career, he has 14 catches for 144 yards and one touchdown in 50 games.
The Patriots also signed rookie tackles Jordan Devey and R.J. Dill to the practice squad. Both were released last Friday, Devey by the Baltimore Ravens and Dill by the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Keighley couple's round-the-world motorbike adventure
9:00am Monday 5th November 2012 in Keighley By Miran Rahman
l Darren and Leigh Mitchell during their motorcycle journey from the furthest point north by road, in Alaska, to the furthest point south, Tierra del Fuego, in South America
A newly-married Keighley couple are on their way to the southern tip of South America as part of a mission to travel around the world on their motorbike.
Darren and Leigh Mitchell (nee O'Sullivan), of Branshaw Grove, Exley Head, left home on May 7. They have since been battling some of the extremes of nature, as well as immense distances.
Mr Mitchell said: "We wanted to get through Russia, Mongolia, Siberia and Alaska in the same summer. Our aim was to reach the furthest point north that can be reached by road, which is Prudhoe Bay in Alaska.
"Arriving a month later than we'd hoped, we almost failed to cross the Atigun Pass, amid snow and a temperature of minus ten centigrade. We reached Deadhorse, on Prudhoe Bay, on September 10.
"We rode 900 miles on the Dalton Highway, which is now famous for being in the TV show Ice Road Truckers.
"We've had close encounters with bears while wild camping in the Yukon, and had our tent ripped apart in a storm in Croatia. Now we're riding south all the way to the tip of South America – Tierra del Fuego – before crossing over to Africa."
He and his partner are riding a Yamaha Tenere XT660Z.
Mr and Mrs Mitchell, both 51, have been together for ten years. They tied the knot last Thursday in the Chapel of Flowers in Las Vegas. Their wedding featured a live webcam link, enabling family and friends from around the world to watch the ceremony.
Mr Mitchell said: "Leigh had breast cancer a few years ago and recovered after excellent treatment at Airedale Hospital. I was made redundant from npower a year ago, so we took this opportunity to see the world.
"We've always travelled on our motorcycle and have in the past visited all of Europe and North Africa, but this is the first time we've gone round the world.
"So far we have ridden 22,000 miles on this trip through 18 countries."

Cowboys Shake Off Rust And Rally For 83-77 Win Over Ozarks
Hardin-Simmons' men's basketball team had not played a game in 12 days and it showed early on, but the Cowboys rallied for an 83-77 win over the University of the Ozarks on Thursday evening in the American Southwest Conference and home opener at the Mabee Complex.
Ozarks used some hot shooting to race out to a 25-16 lead. HSU responded with a 9-0 run to tie the game at 25 with 8:51 to play in the half. Matt Sinclair had seven of the nine points in the run in his first action as a Cowboy.
The game was still tied at 37 with 2:54 to play when Ozarks closed the half on a 10-2 run to take a 47-39 advantage into halftime. Ozarks hit 7-of-10 3-pointers in the first half.
In the second half, HSU came out and established its dominance in the paint. HSU hit five straight layups and tied the game at 49 all with 17:07 to play. Ozarks kept making shots and led 66-58 with 10:41 to play in the game.
That is when the Cowboy defense tightened down and Ozarks went almost six minutes scoring only three points and HSU took its first lead of the second half with 4:55 to play on a Sinclair jumper. The teams traded baskets and were tied at 75 when Eric Taylor hit a 3-pointer to give the Cowboys a 78075 lead with 2:29 to play. HSU never trailed again.
Darius Singletary led five Cowboys into double figures with 18 points. He also had eight assists, five rebound and five steals. John Derr had 14, Sinclair had 13, Taylor had 12 and Titus Mims added 11. George Nelson had eight points and a game-high 12 rebounds
Ronnie Dodd led the Eagles with 25 points and 11 rebounds. Joshua Clark added 12 points and Jeremy Victor chipped in 11.
HSU is now 2-1 on the year and 1-0 in ASC action. Ozarks fell to 1-5 and 0-2 in league play. HSU will host UT-Dallas at 3 p.m. on Saturday.

Embarkation/debarkation: As in all reviews I have read, this is by far the easiest in getting on/off the ship. We arrived at port around 11am, breezed through security, and we on board (after a quick stop in the suite lounge) by 11:30am. A week later, we were off the ship by 8:00am and through customs and had our bags by 8:10am. Wish all ships used the same method for getting on - board by deck number or in the suite line. Easy and fast!
Ship: Since she is almost 2 years old, we expected some wear and tear, but found none. Crew was constantly cleaning, repairing, painting, polishing. Ship is easy to navigate and, if you get lost, there are interactive maps at all elevators to show you where you are, how to get somewhere, what's going on, how long the waits are in restaurants, etc. Fabulous idea.
Room: We originally had a D1 balcony on deck 12. Three weeks before the cruise, we upgraded to a guarantee suite and waited to find out what we would get. About a week before cruise, we discovered that we had been assigned a junior suite - a handicap accessible junior suite. Room is about the size of a grand suite, plenty of storage space, pleanty of room to get around. Opening the door to balcony produces a ramp, which was difficult to put back into place. Bathroom had roll in shower, shower chair, lots of hand rails, upper and lower soap dispensers. All in all, a really big room for what we paid. However, we met some people who said they were on the waiting list for a h/a JS and were told one was not available. Felt bad that we had a room that others who really needed it could have had. Hopefully, it was just a glitch in the system, but I think RCCL should not include these rooms under the suite guarantee.
Dining: We ate 3 times in the Opus dining room, with My Time Dining. Food and service was ok. Never had to wait for a table, even when it was crowded. Also went to following restaurants:
**Izumi - had lunch and thought the food was very good. Nice location & atmospehere.
**150 Park Ave - ok.............food was very good, but I hate to leave a restaurant hungry. I realize it is a tasting menu and you do get 6 or 7 courses, but for the money, where is the food? Our beef medallions were the size of a half dollars, our pasta dish (while very good) consiste of maybe 3 noodles, soup was maybe 1/4 cup (but delicious). Thankfully, it was our anniversary, so we got an additional desert. Careful of the martinis they push at the beginning - they are yummy, but cost $17 each.
**Giovannis - excellent food served family style. You will not go hungry here.
**Chops - again, excellent food and plenty of it.
Also went to the Park Cafe (great salad bar & roast beef sandwiches and soup), Sorrentos (for pizza) and the promenade cafe (for afternoon pastries).
Crew: Had read several reviews from people who thought crew was unfriendly and uncooperative. They must have been on a different ship. Everyone we encountered was friendly, ready to help, and went out of their way to be accomodating. They made our cruise.
Entertainment: Went to Hairspray (excellent), comedy show (very funny, but the venue is very small), headliner show (musical comedian - not my cup of tea but entertaining). Sat for 40 minutes at Oasis of Dreams show before it was cancelled due to technical difficulties - make up show was during dinner for us. Saw the afternoon comedy diving show, which was excellent. Had already seen Frozen in Time before, so did not go, but our friends did and they said it was amazing. We booked all shows on-line prior to boarding and it made all the difference. Sea pass gets scanned and you are allowed in theater. Lines of people waiting without reservations and for the most part (except for comedy show) they were allowed in.
Overall: Ship is amazing. So much to do, so many places to go, so little time. You need at least 2 weeks to experience it all.

A former Scottsdale certified public accountant has been convicted of operating a $66 million ponzi scheme.
On Monday, the jury found Daniel Wise guilty of 22 counts of theft and eight counts of fraudulent schemes and artifices, according to court officials.
Now the jury will decide if there were aggravating factors in the case.
The indictment alleged Wise fraudulently induced victims to invest $66 million with false promises of high-yield returns by making short-term, high-interest, hard-money loans in real estate ventures.
Detectives said he used a web of bank accounts and entities from June 2005 to December 2008 to deceive his clients.
The indictment alleges that Wise siphoned off about $7 million from his victims for his personal use.

DETROIT -- The Tigers can pitch Max Scherzer on Sunday afternoon, and they can keep him on turn to make two more starts after that. The Major League strikeouts leader, who left his start Tuesday after just two innings due to shoulder fatigue, was cleared to start after throwing a 10-minute session Saturday afternoon.
"Everything felt good," Scherzer said. "My arm warmed up quick. My arm felt 100 percent. I was able to throw every pitch."
Scherzer will pitch the front end of Sunday's day-night doubleheader against the Twins. Drew Smyly, who had been an insurance option for Scherzer's spot until Friday's rainout, will pitch Sunday's nightcap.
Rick Porcello, whose scheduled start Friday night was rained out, will have his turn skipped in the rotation and will start next Wednesday against the Royals. Once Sunday became a doubleheader, Porcello was an option to pitch if Scherzer wasn't ready.
Instead, Porcello will spend the weekend available in the bullpen if needed, then prepare for Kansas City, a team against which he has fared much better than Minnesota. He has given up 27 hits in 13 2/3 innings against the Twins in 2012, including 12 hits in 3 2/3 innings during a start in July. Four of the 12 runs he has allowed to Minnesota have been unearned, accounting more than one-third of his total of unearned runs this year.
Prince continues to see steady diet of lefties
DETROIT -- Though expanded September rosters have multiplied the number of arms available in most bullpens for the stretch run, the one Tigers hitter most likely to see a difference from it hasn't been effected as much as was expected.
While the White Sox, for one, threw one lefty reliever after another at Prince Fielder in the late innings last week, the Detroit slugger is actually on pace for the same number of at-bats against lefties this month as he has been in most other months. He's gone 5-for-23 with seven walks and five strikeouts against lefties in September.
By contrast, Fielder went 9-for-39 with six walks and five strikeouts against southpaws in August.
For what it's worth, Fielder entered Saturday 9-for-40 with three home runs against right-handers in September.
Some of the differences depend on the opponent and left-handed starters, of course. Still, Fielder had eight at-bats against the White Sox in two games started by lefty Jose Quintana, plus three more at-bats in a Chris Sale start on Sept. 2.
More visibly, though, the White Sox used a trio of lefty relievers -- Donnie Veal, Leyson Septimo and Matt Thornton -- to try to hold down Fielder in late-inning situations. Veal, in particular, stands out, since he hasn't allowed a hit to a left-handed batter this season.
"Prince doesn't face a right-handed pitcher from the fifth inning on," manager Jim Leyland said Saturday.
Leyland has been a vocal critic of expanded September rosters and their impact on games during playoff races. He supports the idea of a rule requiring teams in September to designate a certain number of "active" players.

CLEVELAND -- Infielder Mike Aviles and the Cleveland Indians agreed Thursday to a $6 million, two-year contract that includes a club option for 2015.
Aviles, acquired from Toronto in November, projects to give the Indians depth at second base, shortstop and the outfield. He spent last season as Boston's primary shortstop, batting .250 with 13 homers and 60 RBIs in 136 games.
Aviles' deal would be worth $9.25 million over three years if the option is exercised, and he could earn $500,000 annually in performance bonuses. The 31-year-old receives a $1 million signing bonus and salaries of $1.75 million this season and $3 million in 2014, and the Indians hold a $3.5 million option in 2015 with a $250,000 buyout.
He would earn $100,000 each year for reaching 550 plate appearances, and $200,000 apiece for 600 and 625.
By reaching the agreement with Aviles, the Indians avoided going to salary arbitration for the 22nd straight season. The Indians have not gone to an arbitration hearing with a player since 1991.
Aviles set a career-high in doubles (28) last season and matched personal bests in extra-base hits (41) and steals (14).
He may get some at-bats as designated hitter. New manager Terry Francona has said he may use several players in the role.
BrownsSFlbCleveland rounds out coaching staff
CLEVELAND -- Browns coach Rob Chudzinski has rounded out his staff by hiring five more assistants.
John Settle, who spent the past two seasons working with Chudzinski in Carolina, will coach Cleveland's running backs. He takes over for Gary Brown, relieved after four seasons with the Browns. Settle coached the Panthers' backs.
In addition to Settle, the Browns hired Chris DiSanto (assistant strength and conditioning), Ken Flajole (inside linebackers), Steve Gera (special assistant to the head coach) and Derik Keyes (assistant strength and conditioning).
Chudzinski, who was the Panthers offensive coordinator the last two years, said in a statement that the new coaches "are all outstanding teachers and leaders who will bring out the best in our players."
This is Settle's second stint with the Browns. He served in several capacities in 1995 for Cleveland before the team moved to Baltimore.

I'd love to tell you the Capitals' general reaction [to the Bolts acquiring Roloson], because it was pretty funny. But the one word is somewhat unprintable on a family website. Let's just say they have a healthy respect for Roloson.From Elliotte Friedman's always fantastic 30 Thoughts
Wishart has played all season in the AHL and was the 16th overall pick in 2006. [Update from Dominik: Per the Isles, Wishart will report to Bridgeport.]
As says above. Bye bye Wiz, hello picks.
The Islanders and Hurricanes traded non-entities, with old prospect Rob Hennigar going to Carolina for injury-interrupted prospect Bobby Hughes.
Hey, for hockey news, it sure beats men in suits or boys in taxi cabs. James Mirtle has his take on what it means. Check Fear the Fin and those lovable fisters at Nucks Misconduct for local views.
With the Blackhawks hitting salary cap trouble, it's an ideal chance for the Islanders to poach a player like Dustin Byfuglien.
Colorado giving up on Ryan Smyth and trading him to Los Angeles should remind us why the Islanders are lucky the didn't sign him long-term.
Open thread for reports and comments on the trades (not likely) and rumors (quite likely) of Draft Day.
"I'm in a good situation, and I'm happy," Comrie said. "I wish nothing but success for the Islanders." "It's unfortunate [Gordon] thinks that way, but I'm not worried about it and it's not going to affect me," Campoli said. "I have a lot of respect for the organization, and I wish them the best, except against us."New Senators Mike Comrie and Chris Campoli, striking the high-road tone about their time on Long Island. Greg Logan adds that the original Gordon "bad apples" quote was in response to a Montreal reporter's question.
Bill Guerin: gone. Jon Sim: demoted. Witt, Martinek, Hilbert, Weight: "Present, sir!" I don't imagine Garth Snow's press conference is going to be all that riveting, but we'll see how ornery the press is after waiting four days for the captain to be traded for a 3rd-or-worse pick.

text: Outstanding in the Field in Santa Cruz A Truly Memorable Farm-to-Table Beach Dinner by Anna Monette Roberts 6/20/12 7 Reactions 23 Shares Print 0 13 10 0 0 Imagine burrowing your feet underneath warm sand while breathing in a swirl of fresh sea breeze and smoked salmon. You're surrounded by interesting new friends, engaged in intimate conversations that that seem as bottomless as the wine refills. There's no distractions, no place to be, and nothing to think about other than passing around the heavy ceramic bowls full of the freshest produce, picked literally hours before dinner service. Yes, this event is real. It's called Outstanding in the Field. The organization connects diners with the food on their plate. Founded in 1998 by Jim Denevan, the dinners are organized all around the United States to bring diners, local farmers, and sustainable chefs together. Each event is located on or near a farm in stunning outdoor locations. I was lucky enough to attend one of these dinners, hosted by Freewheelin' Farm in Santa Cruz, CA. The rustic, family-style dinner was prepared by Kim Alter, the executive chef of Haven restaurant in Oakland, CA. Enter my version of culinary heaven by taking a look at the photos of the food and scenery from this truly outstanding dining experience. BYOP What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Bring your own plate, that is. One of the traditions at Outstanding in the Field is to bring your own vintage plate to add to the countrified charm of the table. As we arrived at the farm, we dropped off ours. My parents and I brought antique Delft plates from the Netherlands. 1 / 26 Red White and Blue Beach What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Historically, this secret cove in Santa Cruz was a private nude beach called Red White and Blue Beach. Now it's home to Freewheelin' Farm and was opened up to Outstanding in the Field for this event. 2 / 26 Founder With a Vision What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jim Denevan, a California native, started out as a restaurant cook. His experiences living in Italy and France made him realize how significant the culture of food is and how, back home, Americans didn't truly understand the origin of and labor behind their food. That's why, in 1998, Jim organized the first farm dinner, connecting people to organic farmers and local chefs. The idea grew into Outstanding in the Field, a tour of farm dinners across the country. This year alone, there will be 85 dinners. 3 / 26 Makeshift Bridge What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jim is very hands-on when it comes to setting up the farm dinners. The morning of the event, Jim and his crew built this bridge made entirely of tables. 4 / 26 The Iconic Table What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Outstanding in the Field is known for its signature, seemingly infinite tables that are covered in brilliant, white linen. 6 / 26 Beach Bonfire What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Even though this beach scene looks warm and inviting, it was actually quite cold. That's why Jim and his team set up a large bonfire to light when the sun set. 6 / 26 Field Strawberry-Infused Corpse Reviver #2 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With gin, Cointreau, Lillet Blanc, lemon juice, and a spritz of absinthe, this particular Corpse Reviver was modified slightly from the 1930s Savoy Cocktail Book. The addition of field strawberries made it syrupy sweet, a perfect afternoon refreshment while hors d'oeuvres were passed. 7 / 26 Grill Everything What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In the field, there is no oven, so the chef relied on the charcoal grill for most of the cooking. Beautiful peaches were grilled ahead of time for a spinach salad. 8 / 26 Foie Gras, Rhubarb, and Barley Cracker What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Before the ban is fully implemented in California, chefs everywhere are serving foie gras. Chef Alter began with a delicate foie gras mousse on an airy barley cracker, garnished with a mix of candied and raw rhubarb. Sweet, rich, and fatty, this hors d'oeuvre was a bittersweet farewell to the delicacy. 9 / 26 Cornbread, Uni, and Black Garlic What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Southern girl in me loved this moist cornbread, slathered with a butter-like uni spread and garnished with fermented black garlic purée. 11 / 26 Smoked Potato, Creme Fraiche, and Housemade Bottarga What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Smoky flavors are often unusual, save for smoked salmon, so it was a wonderful treat to have smoked fingerling potatoes with a dollop of tart crème fraiche, topped with chive and roe. 11 / 26 The Migration What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Once all the hors d'oeuvres had been served, everyone migrated across the bridge to the tables for the main courses. 12 / 26 Protective Sand Barrier What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Noticing the tide was coming in toward the table, Jim and his team created a sand barrier to prevent our feet from getting wet! While it was a close call, the barrier was successful in keeping everyone dry. 13 / 26 The Menu Card What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 All the ingredients were listed on the menu card in the order that they were served. 14 / 26 Unti Wines What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Wine was provided by Unti Vineyards in Healdsburg, Calif. The small, family-owned vineyard practices a unique farming method, using the lunar cycle to farm self-sustaining vines without the use of pesticides or herbicides. 15 / 26 Bread and Butter What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 As always, brioche-style bread and salted butter were a warm and inviting introduction to the table. 16 / 26 Beet, Green Strawberry, Balsamic, and Goat Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Pickled beet purée, sour green strawberries, foraged mustard flowers, and Cowgirl Creamery goat cheese . . . the mix of sweet and sour flavors awakened the palate and was an inventive twist on the traditional beet and goat cheese salad pairing. 17 / 26 Spinach, Peach, Housemade Ricotta, and Nasturtium What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Words cannot express how forever changed my impression of spinach is after this salad. Buttery and full of ribbed texture, there's no going back to the flat, chalky, stringy stuff at the supermarket. The spinach was dressed up with nasturtium pesto, grilled peaches, pickled peach vinaigrette, Japanese shiso leaf, nasturtium blossoms, and house-made Strauss ricotta cheese. 18 / 26 Grilled Lettuce, Fish Sauce Vinaigrette, Garlic Confit, and Squid What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 To maintain the shape of the baby gem lettuce, the entire bunch was grilled, resulting in a charred flavor without, miraculously, wilting. The bunches were then dressed in a fish vinaigrette and whole squid, sashimi style. 19 / 26 Israeli Couscous, Young Fennel, Cucumber, Cabbage, and Onion What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This Mediterranean-inspired salad with a cucumber-mint-fennel-yogurt dressing also featured fava beans, young enough to be served in their skins. 20 / 26 Grilled Cedar Plank Salmon What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I certainly wasn't aware that there were wild salmon in Northern California. The freshly caught salmon from H & H Fresh Fish Company in Monterey Bay was grilled atop fresh herbs and a cedar plank. 21 / 26 Salt-Baked Black Cod What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Moist and immaculately prepared, the black cod was the last item to come out of the kitchen, and it was one of my favorites. 22 / 26 White Chocolate Namelaka, Strawberry, Fennel, Hazelnut, and Lavender What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Namelaka, meaning "creamy texture" in Japanese, is a ganache, whipped with gelatin to create a firm yet creamy dessert. The farm experience came full circle, ending with the ripe strawberries, picked at the height of their season. The best part of the dessert was definitely the sliced fennel, which added a distinct licorice flavor. 23 / 26 Bonfire Building What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jeff helped start the large, glowing bonfire that kept us all warm as the sun set. 24 / 26 Bonfire Blazing What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Everyone gathered around the bonfire to eat their dessert. 25 / 26 A Final View What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Before the sun set, I took a final picture of the stunning cove. Stretching wide to relieve my full belly and feeling toasty from the bonfire, I bid adieu to the secret cove. Satisfied by this farm dinner experience, I walked away from the beach to return to the city. 26 / 26 0 13 10 0 0 Read More Farm To TableOutstanding In The FieldEventsFood NewsEco Eco DIY Straw Vase in 5 Easy Steps 2 days ago 31 Brilliant Uses For Dawn Dish Soap 2 days ago Does This Mean the End of Laundry Sheets? 1 week ago This DIY Oxygen Bleach Spray Costs Pennies to Make 1 week ago 221 Upcycling Ideas That Will Blow Your Mind 1 week ago 19 Smart Uses For Tea Tree Essential Oil 1 week ago Food News 3 Chipotle Dishes You Won't Find on Menus 4 hours ago 18 Chefs Brave the Ice Bucket Challenge 22 hours ago Does the New Taco Bell $1 Cravings Menu Look Awesome or Awful? 4 days ago How Much of a Foodie Are You? 6 days ago Cotton Candy Grapes Are a Circus For Your Taste Buds 1 week ago How to Pack a Perfect Mason Jar Salad 1 week ago Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

FGCU Softball Hires Paige Jones as Assistant
FORT MYERS, Fla. - FGCU Softball Head Coach Dave Deiros has announced the hiring of Paige Jones as assistant softball coach. Jones joins the staff at FGCU after serving as an assistant for West Alabama.
"We are very fortunate to have Paige join our staff for the 2009 season," said Deiros. "She has played Division I softball at the highest level and will bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to our team. As a coach, she consistently makes her team better, especially at the plate. I believe our hitters will benefit from her tutelage."
Jones' responsibilities will include working with the hitters on all aspects of the offense, recruiting, monitoring the academic progress of student-athletes, serving as a player fitness liaison with the strength and conditioning coach and various other duties.
"I am extremely excited about the opportunity to coach at FGCU and work with Coach Deiros, who has had much success here in the past," said Jones. "I hope to bring enthusiasm and fresh ideas to this program so that it may continue to move forward."
Jones' four successful years at Auburn University will bring a wealth of experience to the FGCU softball program.
During her senior season at Auburn, Jones batted .376 with 13 home runs, 46 RBIs, .646 slugging percentage and .451 on-base percentage. She also batted .450 in SEC play with a .738 slugging percentage and a .506 on-base percentage. Among her accomplishments, she was named First-Team All-SEC (2005), Louisville Slugger/NFCA Third Team All-American (2005), ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American and SEC Player of the Week in May 2005 after going 12-for-21 with four home runs and nine RBIs in six games against Florida and Kentucky. Jones broke a SEC record for consecutive hits with six, tied for 11th best in NCAA history and is fourth in career home runs at Auburn with 21.
Jones, a member of the varsity squad at Thompson High School in Alabaster, Ala., earned Birmingham News State Player of the Year (2001), Gatorade State Player of the Year (2001) and Rivals.com National Player of the Week (2001). She also holds the AHSAA softball records in single-season home runs (20), career home runs (40), single-season RBIs (79), career RBIs (187) and single-season walks (54). As a senior, Jones batted .470 with a slugging percentage of .934, while helping Thompson to state titles in 1998 and 1999.
Jean Paige Jones graduated from Auburn in the summer of 2006 with an undergraduate degree in Secondary Education and Biological Sciences and is currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Teaching with a concentration in Biology at West Alabama.

Discussion in 'Portable Vaporizers' started by magicflight, May 16, 2009.
I ended up buying some Duracell 2450 batteries. Just blew my first trench of loud in it
Are the wrappers on the Powerex 2700's easy to take off? I think it's time for a new set of batts and last time I gave up trying to get the Duracell wrappers off.
Lenmar 2700's are really easy.. no residue at all.. i got mine at fry's electronics... they were 8 for under $20.. they also had 4 packs w/ a 4 battery case included but they were only a few bucks cheaper than the 8 pack w/o battery holders.
Hey everyone! I have not been on this page in over a year! Well, besides the other day when I flipped out trying to change my name to no avail. Anyhow, which do yall think is a better grinder for this little magic box, the Nano or the Finishing Grinder?
Sorry user name 'no avail' was taken, there's a lot of members here you know, most of the good names are taken it seems?
(that's not serious....)
I really like the nano, although I've never even seen the finishing grinder. I find the nano does a great job if it's dry enough going in.
Otherwise, even with a coarser grind, I'm a fan of 'finger grinding' the load. I'll hit it a time or two until it's really dry (all the water is gone) and the action is just starting then dump it into my left palm. It crumbles very easily (and is not sticky) with thumb and forefinger of my right hand in a few seconds, then back into the box. I've even perfected putting it in a little pile in my palm, standing the box up on the Port side next to it then rotating them together dumping the load neatly back. Very quick and easy, and the next hit is the very best one of the trench usually.
(that part is).....
High OF! Thank you! I am using a pill fob I believe it is called to keep my pre-ground herb in. I have a Sour Deisel mix right now & I am just now hearing I am supposed to be leaving it out to dry before vaping it! (I got this little guy right before Christmas from Blissville.com) I want a fancy teeny grinder but I noticed when I grinded it with my fingers last night it did that same thing, for free! I was using a Da Buddha to vape since September of 2010 & when I DO smoke it tastes like meat &/or ciggs!!! (I quit ciggs 2 years & almost 10 months ago & am the only vegetarian in my family) As for my name, UGH Crites is my ex fiance's name. I found out he was cheating on me on Christmas day of 2011 & HATE seeing it every time I get on here, do you know who I would to talk to change it? Or IF I could?
MFLB likes a very fine grind. I often use one of those whirly blade coffee grinders. You can get one for $10-15.
Hey Hoptimum! Where at please?
I use one like this. I shake it while i grind and use a fine brush to sweep out the trichomes.
http://www.amazon.com/203-70-Electr...58892053&sr=1-2&keywords=blade coffee grinder
completely agree with OF on this.
i'm also one of those 'finger-grinders' when it comes to the MFLB. after just one or two hits, the material is usually the perfect dryness to crush up between your fingers. IMO it works better than the nano-grinder to get a finer grind. i still use the nano-grinder from time to time but that's if i'm just being fussy and don't want to get my fingers 'dirty'. however, i can't comment on the contrast of grind between the finishing grinder and my trusty ol' fingers.
Right on, thank you!
Right on, thank you!
So, Should I be actually leaving my jar open letting my bud dry out before whichever method of grinding?
depends on how dry your herb is to start with. the action of grinding it will dry it out since it exposes more surface to the air.
Since it seems like not many around here have a finishing grinder, I'd like to say that I love mine. Just don't give it wet herb. Keep it dry and it works great! The cheese-grater grind gives a consistency that really hits quick and great from the start, in my experience. The lip and square nature of the lid makes it easy to turn, and the design looks really classy as well, in my opinion. All this without mentioning that it grinds right into the trench! It is a little pricy, but the little thing even has a lifetime warranty of its own… I think it's a great buy if you've got the spare cash for it.
In my experience you can't go better than a coffee grinder for nice fine powder form.
Hello again, welcome to all the fun.....
Name change should be possible in most systems, it takes clout of course, contact any of the Moderators by PM, they'll set you right or pass you to the guy who will.
I think keeping it 'well cured' (not so damp it risks mold) is OK, but before grinding you want it dry enough so it doesn't gum up in the grinder. With the interlocking fingers kind it makes it very hard to turn and cuts ragged, it can gum up the coffee grinders (which are great IMO as well). I usually give it a few hours after grinding as well before I seal it again.
Since we're talking MFLB here, here's what I do..... A gram or two at a time I grind in the coffee grinder and let it air until it flows freely in the little tin I use. I then load a series of on dram vials with 1/8 gram each, premeasured trenches. I find it's really fast (20 seconds typically each) to scoop out just under the mark then add up into range. I have a box of vials and a small plastic funnel to go with the scoop. They weigh just under ten grams total, they go on the scale, I zero it out, scoop it in and add enough extra to get the reading between .120 and .130 grams. Change the funnel to the next, zero the scale, add the scoop, trim the weight, change the funnel..... In a few minutes preloaded trenches for the week are ready to go. Makes it real easy to plan, 3 vials with 2 batteries is easy to meet for me.
They also sell clear of course, along with a bunch of other neat stuff, but I kinda like the amber.
Best wishes
Edit: BTW you'll notice there's an 'edit' button at the bottom of your posts (only) for about 4 hours after you post? Protocol around here is to use that function to add to an existing post rather than make more than one in a row. That's how I just added this edit in fact. No big deal, but you will get called out for it. OF
cool i didn't know that... maybe now i'll get one some day ha... i can imagine getting it and hardly using it though haa.. still be cool to have. gotta love that lifetime warranty
I'd guess a lot of guys buy them that way, many on a lark in fact. However, if you read this thread you'll find lots of them really come to like the humble box. Not only does it have a neat little charm all it's own but it can perform surprisingly well. Few of us are willing to part with ours. Many of us bought backups for exotic wood boxes for special occasions when we could have bought 'the next vape'.
Your chances of regretting it are IMO small.
i'm sure i wouldn't regret it even if i didn't use it... those grinders are a cool looking, and it would complete my LB set up nice.
Well... if we're changing names... I have a request...
Anyway... that old rule of thumb on the condition of my herb. If it rips, tears, or shreds... its too wet. If its got that little bit of crunch, IMO, the MF Nano grinder is more than enough. If I didn't have that consistency in the herb, then I do the same as OF, though I would probably end up splurging for the finishing grinder.
Though, I usually load my MFLB with the stuff, on the bottom of the containers, I store my usual grind in. That stuff, is damn close to kief, since I don't separate.
Kind of like this.
(This is OG, White Knight and Rattlesnake)
I've been getting pretty decent results with my grinders and this "Red Dragon" bud (I think that's what it was called?) lately. The stuff is bone dry, just to my liking, and apparently to the grinder and my box's liking as well. No need to get the coffee grinder out this time. I'll get pictures in a bit, my phone died earlier for the first time in months and I just put it to charge.
i usually just grind average and let it air dry out.. then i jar it and finger grind it super fine when i need it... my grinders nothing special its just some acrylic pirymid tooth grinder... i got that grinder like ten years ago haha and never needed more.. it's actually the only grinder iv'e ever owned.. i used to mostly hand grind my bud when i used to roll...
For those of you who own the WPA and the WPW, could you please compare the two? I'm thinking about picking up the WPW (if MF ever calls me back about placing an order...ahem), but only if it is an improvement over the WPA.
Thanks in advance.
The old-school WPA relies on you lining the intake hole with the draw hole of the box. Not really a problem, but the way the WPA is angled, it works best for pieces with the 45 degree downstem joint. If you have a 90 degree piece the WPA is angled upwards so some of the bud might fall to the end of the box and not be totally vaporized. It also prevents you from seeing the content.
The new (and definitely improved!) WPW is a better piece I think. It's the GonG and wooden pyramid that hold the end of a whip with the nub for your box. No more aligning the hole, just plug it in, attach to the downstem, and you're good to go. You can buy some tubing and cut out a piece to your liking and use that instead, if you want a shorter or longer piece. Oh, by the way, the WPW comes apart. You can slide the GonG attachment off from the wooden logo pyramid, and then remove the pyramid as well and you've got their whip attachment with two short nubs. It's 2 in 1.
I haven't bothered with the old WPA since getting this one for free in the contest. They definitely nailed it second time around.
Oh man. That's a tough one. I used to HATE the WPA. However, now that I've built up a completely different glass collection, it depends on what I'm using.
Some pieces that its easy for me to see the WPA and hold the MFLB up to it... I much prefer it. Otherwise I'll choose the whip. However, the style perc can play into that also.
My Leviathan Lattice bubbler for instance, can milk a NICE hit off the WPA. Hook up a whip, its kind of weak. Try to use the WPA with my big 22" tube, no go. Hook up a whip... I can kinda milk it (it ain't easy).
I do really like, especially the smaller tubing on the WPW. Makes it much easier to deal with, than the 1/4" ID stuff. I love the wood piece/GonG attachment. Only real knock I have on it, was I was hoping they would use a shorty glass stem.
I like the idea of bottling trenches. Do I understand correctly that the 1 dram holds 3 trenches? I like the green 5/8 dram since I am only interested in bottling 1 trench.
I just looked at your post again and you said 3 vials and two batteries so I'm guessing one trench per vial. Will 1 trench fit into the 5/8 dram? It is 1 inch tall as opposed to 1.75".
Okay, duh, you clearly say between .120g and .130g per vial, but my question about the 5/8 dram still stands.
Separate names with a comma.

250ml bottle poured in a pint glass.
A: Pours a standard pale yellow color. A bit hazy, nevertheless. Forms a small bubbled white head with low retention and only few spotty lacings left in the glass
S: Very grainy in the nose. Strong notes of flowery hops. A bit spicy with notes of coriander. Bready and a bit metallic
T: Very grainy in the mouth too. Noble pale malts upfront. Quite bready. Great notes of noble flowery hops. Considerable notes of coriander. Balanced bitterness. Quite smooth. Good quality water was used
M: Light to medium body. Good carbonation. Smooth texture. Good quality water. Malty, grassy and bit metallic aftertaste
O: Good drinkability. Good quality Pilsener. My new favorite Swiss brewery

Recently stumbled across my notes from The Festival 2012. Lets do this!
A - Poured a cloudy golden straw hue with a one finger white head that faded very, very quickly.
S - Aromas start out pretty solid, noble hops, bready malts, nice floral notes..then this weird metallic aroma starts to waft in...
T - Taste is even worse. So, there is the sweet malts and the nice earthy/grassy hops..then things get very boozy tasting with metallic twinges. Just..too bad.
M - Mouthfeel is solid though with very nice carbonation.
O - Overall, the metallic twinges here really hurt this for me. Just too bad.

(Served in a tulip glass)
A- This beer pours a deep yellow pour with a porous white head that last a good bit.
S- The fresh pils malt has some nice raw grain and dry white grape aromas to the finish while still having a nice clean lagered quality.
T- The full pils malt taste has a soft sweet sulfur green Noble hop finish. There is a soft white grape aftertaste with just a touch of sweetness to it.
M- The medium-light mouthfeel has a tight fizz in the finish that boost the mouthfeel a bit and no real alcohol heat noticed.
O- The nice fresh flavor with citrus and spice hop notes make a great white grape quality to the hops. Well balanced and very easy to drink. Just enough sweetness to add interest but not too much.

330 mL organic "Pilsener Wine" whatever the fuck that is.
hazy golden straw pour with a very pretty cascading head that fades way to quickly into a thick ring and had almost no residual carbonation, but good lacing. At least it looks slightly unfiltered.
Reeks of pils yeast, musty barn yard and hay. Odd but pleasant, and very strong. Very close to being off putting.
yeasty from the get go with a zesty and savory dull orange peel, coriander. Leafy herbal hop notes on top of a gentile crusty grain maltiness. Lacks depth and malt orientated balance of a double or an imperial where they haven't just added distilled alcohol. mildly boozy.
Bright and well carbonated on the palate with champagne fine bubbles, crisp and exact on the finish with a juicy smooth finish that makes you want more.
good enough, it IS greater than its components and has a uniqueness to it that is beneficial. Its still not great, and by the end of it I was a little overwhelmed by its underwhelmingness, and the booze.

330ml bottle
A- Dark golden colour, cloudy, huge fluffy white head with nice retention and lacing. Nice but not exactly a typical pilsner by the look
S- Lively and fresh. A grainy/bready base, with a touch of spicy, phenolic/alcohol feel on top. Freshly herbaceuos and floral notes as well, as to be expected per style
T- A bit downhill by comparison with the aroma. Grainy base, not as crisp as you may expect from a pilsner. Some slight citrusy and floral notes on the tongue, and then a strong herbal feel on the back of the mouth and in the aftertaste. Bittering finish, plus quite persistent bittering aftertaste. A bit of alcohol is perceptible in the mix, not so pleasant, it brings a bit of warming feel that does not fit with the beer's refreshing feel and does not even provide some peculiar flavours
M- Medium bodied, quite light carbonation. Decently smooth, goes down easy, but i felt like something more crisp would have fitted better
O- Pretty much a pumped-up pilsner, decently enjoyable but one wonders if such a thing was really worth. The same flavour, plus more balance and drinkability, could be obtained by brewing a standard, 5%ABV, pilsner. Felt like this was done for sake of brewing something strange

From a 330 ml brown stubby bottle, pours out a cloudy gold hue, creamy ivory white head that settles to a thick cap.
Aroma of Noble hops, with bready malt and crisp metallic grains.
Grainy malt in the flavour, some bready sweetness, with a dominating character of leafy, grassy hops--yet balance and cohesion seems off.
Mouthfeel is medium-bodied, creamy smooth, with moderate carbonation.
Doesn't seem to pull everything together in the end, although the key elements are to be found in the flavour, they just don't play well with one another. More carbonation, or a crisper character would have helped too.

3.63/5 rDev +2%
330ml stubby bottle, the label deems this an "Organic Pilsener Wine". Not exactly the current version of a hipster also depicted.
This beer pours a cloudy medium golden straw hue, with one finger of loose, foamy off-white head, which settles rather quickly, leaving some very sparse streaked lace around the glass.
It smells of grainy, semi-sweet pale malt, sharp citrus rind, some pummeled floral hop notes, and a simmering metallic booziness. The taste is more of the same - a soft, sturdy graininess, a slight crusty breadiness, some indistinct, but pleasant enough tart citrus fruitiness, and a lurking, prodding alcoholic edge.
The bubbles are pretty average, in a good way, the body a timid, but agreeable enough medium weight, and warmly smooth. It finishes clean, grainy, and toasty - in more than one way.
Hard to classify this one - the tendency to go BSPA was initially strong, until, well, until I tasted it. A deftly boozed-up version of a decent Euro-pils.

We first reported Friday night that two separate motorcycle accidents sent three people to the hospital.
Now we've learned that one of those accidents claimed the life a woman.
Millcreek Police say the woman was critically injured when her motorcycle was rear ended by a Jeep Patriot, driven by Aleatha Wyatt of Florida Street in Erie.
The accident happened just before 9:30 Friday night on Route 8 at East Gore Road.
The victim was thrown from the motorcycle. She died at UPMC Hamot trauma center.
The woman was riding with a companion on another motorcycle.
"As they were approaching the light on East Gore one of the bikes continued through an amber light and the other one stopped for it and a vehicle struck the one motorcycle from behind," said Millcreek Police Sergeant Timothy Beveridge.
He says the station always sees an increase in motorcycle accidents this time of year. "Now there's a huge influx of bikes on the road and we need to be very aware of that."
Police have not released the victim's name. Their investigation is ongoing.

Confirming that the user wants to leave the app
This article explains discusses prompting the user before they leave an app.
Windows Phone 8
Windows Phone 7.5
It's easy to ask a user to confirm that they want to leave an app (or page) by overriding the `OnBackKeyPress` method on a page. See:
protected override void OnBackKeyPress(System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) { var result = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit the app?", "Please confirm", MessageBoxButton.OKCancel); e.Cancel = result != MessageBoxResult.OK; base.OnBackKeyPress(e); }
But what if you want to add this confirmation when the user leaves the app in ways other than pressing the back button?
The short answer is that it's not possible to prompt the user when they leave an app in other ways and it certainly isn't possible to stop them leaving. Let's look at why.
Leaving the app in any other way will cause the application level events to be triggered and these cannot block indefinitely (and actually only have a few seconds to run) as to do so would risk compromising the OS. Imagine for instance if you could throw up a message box when someone left an app for any reason (and cancel the navigation dependent upon the result). This would enable the creation of an app that could prevent the user EVER leaving the app. This would be the equivalent of being able to override the other hardware buttons or stop someone launching another app from system UI (E.g. Toasts, notifications or answering incoming calls) There may be a few cases such as Line Of Business apps where this may be desirable but it doesn't make sense in terms of a general purpose, consumer focused, mobile operating system-like Windows Phone.
Typically apps try and force a confirmation on exit to avoid accidentally closing the app. There are a few motivations behind this.
- The company behind the app isn't familiar with the OS and closing apps via the back button and so they assume the users won't be either. – Coding for this just reinforces uncertainty in the system and an inconsistent experience across apps.
- The navigation model within the app is confusing and users aren't always clear where they are in the app and so don't realize they're exiting by pressing back. – This is an Information Architecture issue and should be solved with better UX design.
- Users often close accidentally and have to relaunch the app, which is very slow. Confirming closing is faster than restarting the app and so seen as beneficial. – The better solution here would be to improve startup/launch time. This would also help all users of the app and not just those who close the app accidentally.
The other reason commonly seen for wanting to confirm application exit is if there is entered but unsaved data. In this scenario it is normally better to automatically save it (login credentials being the usual exception) and then restore it, or ask the user if they want it restored when the user returns to the app. The nature of the data, the app and how they return to it can also have an impact on what is most appropriate here.
