LITHIA, Fla. (AP) — A Florida woman has been banned from swimming in her community's pool because she wants to wear a mermaid tail.
Jenna Conti, who lives in the FishHawk Ranch subdivision, had been in the Aquatic Club pool with her custom-made tail once before with the staff's approval. But last week, employees told her it violated a policy against swim fins. On Monday night, the FishHawk Community Development board voted to keep her out of the pool because of the swim fin policy.
The Tampa Bay Times (http://bit.ly/1aTxMPm) reports that Conti's dream is to swim at the Florida Aquarium, which features mermaid performers.
The full-time hair stylist hasn't been a mermaid for very long. She and her 10-year-old son saw the mermaids at the Tampa Bay Renaissance Fair earlier this year, and she says she was "enthralled."

Southern Spain is a brilliant place to escape the gloomy weather. From late September until early May are the best times to travel to this region, as mid summer is just too hot to do anything else then chill on the beach.
On this trip we take you to the hillsides behind the town of Almeria, you can find great trails for the XC/AM minded rider, aswell as some good thrills for the Enduro rider who likes it technical.
The trails used often originate as commuting trails between farmlands and villages, making them hard to find and not listed on any map!
You stay in a nice comfortable accommodation, and base the day tours from there. If you want to add a bit of adventure to your trip we can also do a 2 or 3 day trip, and camp in the middle of nature!
We offer two standard formats for our trips where one uplift per day is included. That way the climbing time vs. descending time is more balanced.
If you want to customize your trip, no problem! We can adjust the trip for XC fanatics or the more DH oriented crew, and add or deduct days as you wish.

Please let me know what is the legal maximum working hours per week for front office executives in hotels.
Previously I was working in an IT company where we had 5 days working and 9 hours per day.
I understand as and when required, people do work for extra hours in every industry, but in my current org (hotel industry), front office executives work for 10 hrs a day for 5 days and 12 hours for the 6th day which makes a total of 62 hrs per week. Of course you have 1 hour for lunch every day, but no-one really takes 1 hour. I know many hotels would practice this, but i want to know legally, is it same as other indutry (45 hours per week)?

In this photo taken Wednesday, April 24, 2013, an Israeli soldier looks through binoculars at a Syrian village from an army post on the border between Israel and Syrian on the Golan Heights. Against a breathtaking vista of green fields and a snowcapped mountain range, all is silent but for a strong gust of wind whipping across the landscape. The tranquility is suddenly interrupted by a burst of gunfire from beyond a newly built fortified fence: Jihadi rebels are battling with Bashar Assad's battered troops in a nearby Syrian village. Watching it all unfold are Israeli soldiers atop tanks — a sight unseen here in a generation — and the sounds of explosions from a large-scale Israeli drill are distinctly heard in the background.

National forces likely to lead on gay-marriage referendum effort
A national group that's spent big money fighting same-sex marriage across the country is gearing up to overturn a gay-marriage bill that's almost certain to pass in Washington state.
Seattle Times staff reporter
With same-sex marriage virtually assured in Washington state, opponents seeking to undo it are looking ahead to summer and fall, and to a campaign they say will draw on the resources of national organizations that have waged and won these kinds of fights.
A day after the state Senate approved same-sex marriage on a 28-21 vote and moved the bill to the House, where it's expected to pass, the Washington, D.C.-based National Organization for Marriage (NOM) said it's fully committed to repealing the measure in November.
One of the largest national funders in the fight against gay marriage, NOM also is gearing up for ballot battles in North Carolina and Minnesota, where voters this year will decide whether to ban gay marriage in their constitutions, as 29 states already have done.
In Washington state, NOM will employ strategies not unlike those it used four years ago to help roll back legislatively approved gay marriage in Maine and bring about a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage in California under Proposition 8.
"We plan to submit a referendum on this to the secretary of state before the ink is dry on the governor's signature," said Chris Plante, regional coordinator for NOM. "We've got a major constituency; faith communities across the state will carry a heavy load on this. But they're not the only ones committed to retaining the current definition of marriage."
Because there's no emergency clause on the same-sex-marriage bill now being debated in Olympia, the measure, once signed by the governor, would take effect 90 days after the end of the regular legislative session. That would make June 7 the earliest date gay couples could marry here. It also means opponents would have until June 6 to collect 120,577 signatures to put a referendum on the November ballot.
If they fail, the law would take effect as scheduled June 7. If opponents collect enough valid signatures, the law would be suspended and the referendum would be put on the ballot, leaving voters to decide by a simple majority whether the law is thrown out or Washington becomes the seventh state to allow gays to marry.
The Rev. Joe Fuiten, senior pastor of Cedar Park Assembly of God Church in Bothell, said attorneys already are working to determine wording of the referendum.
"We are 100 percent sure there'll be a referendum, and there's a 99 percent chance we'll be successful in getting the signatures," Fuiten said.
NOM will join the Washington campaign, Plante said, bringing an expertise and ability to coordinate grass-roots organizations — some of the groups that two years ago tried unsuccessfully to repeal parts of the state's domestic partnership through Referendum 71.
"The folks running that campaign pulled it out of a hat," he said, referring to their against-all-odds success in getting enough petition signatures to put that measure on the ballot.
"Imagine how much better they could be with help of a national organization like ours," he said.
Strategies would include a range of media campaigns intended to educate voters, persuading people to register to vote and encouraging them to mail their ballots on time.
"We won't do all the work, but we will bring expertise, experience and the resources of a national organization," Plante said. "We have the ability to raise money effectively, not just in Washington, but across the country."
In 2008, just a year after it was established, NOM spent more than $1.7 million — a good chunk of its total revenues for that year — to push passage of Proposition 8, according to IRS filings.
In 2010, the group's war chest had grown to $9.6 million.
NOM has said it will spend $250,000 to help unseat Senate Republicans who crossed the party platform to vote for same-sex marriage. Four Republican state senators — Joe Fain of Auburn, Andy Hill of Redmond, Steve Litzow of Mercer Island and Cheryl Pflug of Maple Valley — voted with Democrats in favor of the bill Wednesday night; three Democrats voted with Republicans against it.
"There's no question they exert influence," said Peter Nicolas, a University of Washington law professor who authored a book about same-sex-marriage legislation nationwide.
The group, he said, has resources and strong determination when it comes to same-sex marriage. "They've been successful in defeating ballot initiatives regarding gay marriage. But I'm not sure how much success they've had in displacing legislators who supported rights for same-sex couples."
Working to defend the legislation is a coalition of religious, labor and community organizations formed in November as United for Marriage. It, too, has friends with national resources.
Campaign manager Zach Silk said organizers have learned from losses in places such as California and have no intention of taking their opponents for granted.
At the same time, public sentiment toward same-sex marriage has grown more favorable in recent years, with national and state polls showing a majority of voters support legalizing such unions.
The 2008 loss in California was "a lifetime ago," Silk said.
"We are taking the opposition at their word: They'll spend a lot of money, confuse the voters ... ," he said.
"We're gonna make sure that people hear our stories."

Cicero preacher allowed to move to Georgia while waiting for fraud case
BY JON SEIDEL Staff Reporter October 16, 2013 12:12PM
Bishop Herman Jackson arrives at the Federal Building in May. | Sun-Times files
Article Extras
A Cicero preacher who said this summer the "wrath of God" would visit the home of a federal judge will be allowed to move to Georgia while he awaits trial on fraud charges.
U.S. Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman told Herman Jackson on Wednesday he may move to the Atlanta area by Nov. 1 — and remain under electronic monitoring — "despite some of Mr. Jackson's antics in the past."
Jackson, known as bishop of the Ark of Safety Apostolic Faith Temple, has been living in his Cicero church under the judge's order for months — an arrangement she's stressed was his idea, not hers.
The preacher and his wife, Jannette Faria, are each charged for their alleged roles in a scheme to swindle state day care funds. Jackson wound up living in his house of worship after the judge was told no friends or family members in the Chicago area were willing or able to take him in.
Coleman has been distrustful of Jackson, and she's shot down his past requests to move to Georgia.
Then, in July, she demanded he publicly apologize after he told the Chicago Sun-Times "the wrath of God" would visit her home. He denied it was a threat — though security for the judge was increased — and he told her his comment had been misunderstood.
At the same time, Coleman also has given Jackson permission to make several short trips to the south. She pointed out Wednesday he's so far followed the court's orders as he traveled. Prosecutors, meanwhile, have delayed the couple's trial from January until August — clearly frustrating the judge.
Before Jackson left her courtroom Wednesday, though, Coleman warned the preacher not to mess up.
"There will be not even a moment's hesitation," she said.

Greek Salad
The husband loves Greek food. At a party this past Summer my friend brought a Greek salad that he went gaga over. I think he wanted to kiss her. I finally got a chance to give it her recipe a try the other night when my sister-in-law and her family spent the night with us on the way to the Bahamas. It was a snowy day so I made it with Greek roast chicken (I skipped the potatoes) which turned out delicious. It gave me a chance to use my new 1 cent roaster pan with rack from the Jewelz. Great make ahead meal that is light yet satisfying.
serves 4
2 T. olive oil
2 T. red wine vinegar
1 t. minced garlic
1/2 t. dried oregano
1/4 t. kosher salt
1/8 t. black pepper
1 head romaine lettuce, torn
1 pint cherry tomato(es), halved
1/2 medium red onion(s), sliced
1 C. peeled cucumber, sliced
6 oz olive(s), kalamata, pitted
1 C. reduced-fat feta cheese
In a jar combine olive oil, vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper. Shake to combine. In large bowl combine all salad ingredients and toss with dressing.
Truth be told I pick out the olives . I also dress my salads pretty light, so double the dressing it doesn't cover to suit your taste.

I love you you said the Jewelz!
I ended up giving my stickers to a co-worker, it would take me forever to get one sticken pot since I don't do my regular grocery shop there.
Is it a a decent roaster?
Da Jewelz!
I got my stickers from a friend actually. The roaster is great, complete with wire rack. It is the perfect size, not too large, yet I was able to roast two chickens at once in it. Thought it would be cheap-o, but not at all.
Delicious! Who doesn't love a good Greek salad? Thanks for linking this up for my salad round up

DEFINITION of 'Netting'
Consolidating the value of two or more transactions, payments or positions in order to create a single value. Netting entails offsetting the value of multiple positions, and can be used to determine which party is owed remuneration in a multiparty agreement.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Netting'
Netting is a general concept that has a number of more specific uses. In a case in which a company is filing for bankruptcy, parties that do business with the defaulting company will offset any money owed to the defaulting company with any money owed by the defaulting company. The remainder represents the total amount owed to the defaulting company or money owed by it, and can be used in bankruptcy proceedings.
Companies can also use netting to simplify third-party invoices, ultimately reducing multiple invoices into a single one. For example, several divisions in a large transport corporation purchase paper supplies from a single supplier, but the paper supplier also uses the same transport company to ship its products to others. By netting how much each party owes the other, a single invoice can be created for the company that has the outstanding bill. This technique can also be used when transferring funds between subsidiaries.
Netting is also used in trading. An investor can offset a position in one security or currency with another position either in the same security or another one. The goal in netting is to offset gains in one position with losses in another.

10. Conclusion
1. Introduction
Artifacts were always intended to be universal tools in the game of Magic, able to be added to virtually any deck you choose. Have you got a multiplayer deck? If you do (and if you're reading this, the odds are high!), you've got room for artifacts in it. So once we step into the multiplayer realm, how do we know what makes a good artifact inclusion for a deck? Let's explore!
Thanks to Mirrodin block, Scars block, and the Esper shard of the Shards block, it is nowadays entirely possible to build a competitive artifact-based multiplayer deck. Along with discussing the best artifact cards available, this guide will give you some artifact-based multiplayer strategies to befuddle your playgroup with.
This guide doesn't include Eldrazi or Karn Liberated. Yes, they're colourless. Yes, they're awesome fun. No, they're not artifacts. I'll leave them for someone who wants to write the Guide to Multiplayer Colourless. ;)
2. Card Elements and Roles
Okay, so obviously, there are piles and piles of artifacts (as of time of writing this, try 1254 on for size)!
To break these up, let's stick to Anthony Alonghi's method of referring to a card's function, as we've seen in other guides, and mention the better ones under each grouping.
2a. Cockroach Cards
Like cockroaches in real-life, Cockroach cards are hard to kill. Just when you think you've got rid of them, they're back again, annoying you once more. In terms of Magic, we're looking for things here that are hard to kill or recurse well.
We can break this down further into four categories:
Hard To Kill
Am I impossible to get off the table. Or even indestructible?
Darksteel Plate. Makes any old creature unpiffable.
Etched Champion. Protection from all colours = how am I meant to kill this thing, again?
Karn, Silver Golem. A defensive house, with an excellent repeatable ability.
Myr Servitor. Not again! Make them go away!
Scarecrone. Artifact recursion and card draw in one. Play two, and they'll be in play for eternity.
Do I have a continuous effect?
Ankh of Mishra. Extremely annoying to play against (and with, unless you plan for it).
Blood Clock / Umbilicus. Sensational next to Warped Devotion, full of combo goodness.
Bottled Cloister. Interesting repeatable card draw. Is good with Ensnaring Bridge.
Caltrops. Constant creature damage on attack. Good with Tamanoa.
Chalice of the Void: Shuts down all spells of a given CC. Gets even better in multiplayer.
Cloud Key. Makes stuff more cheaper.
Crawlspace. Lock-down defense that makes people look elsewhere. Often makes opponents swing at each other, rather than you.
Ensnaring Bridge. Locks the game up. Great in creatureless decks, and with hand-emptiers like Grafted Skullcap.
Etherium Sculptor. The rest of your artifacts made cheaper.
Ethersworn Canonist. Nonartifact lockdown for the rest of the board. says "I'm suddenly unpopular"!
Fluctuator. Spawned an entire broken Living Death deck with cycling creatures.
Grafted Skullcap. Extra cards, combos well with Ensnaring Bridge and Null Brooch.
Iron Maiden. A Black Vise for all your opponents (not an 80s metal band).
Krark's Thumb. It's silly, but it's effective. Four Fiery Gambits in a row FTW!
Lodestone Golem. Four of these, four Sculpting Steels, a lot of opponents who want to punch you in the face.
Meekstone. Fatty lockdown. Great with Icy Manipulator and friends.
Mesmeric Orb. Let's mill everyone at once!
Mindlock Orb. Good lockdown card, shuts the game down next to Maralen of the Mornsong.
Noetic Scales. Unexpectedly good creature control, especially in discard decks.
Null Rod. Vintage/Legacy-level ability lockdown.
Painter's Servant. Broken with Grindstone. Useful in plenty of other ways, too.
Phyrexian Metamorph. A fantastic alt-Clone that has no end of uses.
Pithing Needle. Targeted lockdown is good tourney sideboard material. Multiplayer? Who knows.
Portcullis. Locks the game's creature base while it's out. Has to be dealt with.
Psychogenic Probe. Decks have been built around this effect, with surprisingly good results.
Sculpting Steel. More people = more artifacts = more targets to copy.
Skullcage. Puts the clamps on your opponents' hands.
Smokestack. Has always been good. Now I want to partner it with It That Betrays.
Thrumming Stone. The card adored by Relentless Rats decks.
Trinisphere. It's always been painful to play against. Multiplayer just spreads the love further.
Wheel of Torture. Black Vise for everyone.
Winter Orb. Land lockdown for the table. Still unfun to play against after 15 years!
Can I keep activating multiple times? This includes equipment, which can obviously be re-equipped on multiple creatures, especially after the initial one dies.
Altar of Dementia. Wins the game if left alone. Turns your creatures into rattlesnakes as the game goes on.
Ashnod's Altar. A combo piece for so many infinite combos that we've lost count.
Birthing Pod. An interesting repeatabale creature tutor that is still being broken in new ways.
Citanul Flute. The gold standard of creature tutors when it comes to artifacts. It's fetching the best creature out of your deck every turn if you have the mana.
Crystal Ball. And it is one!
Dragon Arch. Creature-sneaking for gold cards. Loved by the Invasion/Planar Chaos dragons.
Grindstone. Was just annoying. Until they printed Painter's Servant.
Isochron Scepter. Has spawned decks. Very very good, though not much fun with Orim's Chant imprinted!
Kill Switch. Excellent control, but not for an all-artifact deck!
Krark-Clan Ironworks. Another combo-enabling mana source.
Kusari-Gama. When it's equipping something big, it forces your opponent to roll the dice.
Lightning Greaves. Exceptionally versatile, and annoyingly hard to stop.
Liquimetal Coating. So simple, and yet the cornerpiece of so many potential combos.
Mimic Vat. Still being broken in new and exciting ways. Recursable with things like Gravedigger.
Mirari. Brutal in an MBC deck with Corrupts flying about.
Mirrorworks. Oh the Johnny possibilities! Sundering Titan... artifact land... keep going!
Mystic Compass. Cheap and completely inocuous. Can colour-screw an opponent, enables landwalk, especially with Elvish Champion.
Panoptic Mirror. Why do people only ever want to imprint Time Stretch? Soulscour is much more fun!
Phyrexian Altar. Sacrifice outlet that produces coloured mana.
Planar Portal. Got ? You've got the best card in your deck. Each turn.
Proteus Staff. Produces some entertaining game situations. Can turn your weenies into bombs.
Prototype Portal. Insane with artifact lands imprinted. The possibilities are endless.
Quicksilver Amulet. Creature-sneaker of the highest order.
Rings of Brighthearth. A very good combo-enabler. Loved by guys with good activated abilities.
Scroll Rack. Possibly the best library manipulator of the bunch.
Sensei's Divining Top. Fetchable by Trinket Mage. Great with Counterbalance.
Skullclamp. Exceptional card draw, usable over and over.
Soul Foundry. Your bomb creature, recopied every turn.
Staff of Domination. Utility, thy name is Staff of Domination.
Steel Overseer. Triskelion loves his new friend.
Swiftfoot Boots. The new hexproof Greaves. Lets you throw more equipment on top where Das Boots couldn't!
Sword of Body and Mind, War and Peace, Feast and Famine, Fire and Ice, and Light and Shadow. They're all good in their own ways, and they're all repeatably beefing things.
Tangle Wire. Excellent lockdown control, especially when you can bounce it. Nasty with proliferate.
Temporal Aperture. An underrated permanent-sneaker.
Thopter Foundry. Creature generator that loves being next to Sword of the Meek.
Thousand-Year Elixir. Creature haster that elves love.
Umezawa's Jitte. And you thought it was just bonkers in tourneys.
Voltaic Key. There's hardly a limit on what it can untap.
Well of Lost Dreams. Excellent card draw in a deck with life gain.
Whispersilk Cloak. Repeatable shroud and unblockability for your nastiest creature? Hmm...
Zuran Orb. Still excellent situational lifegain after all this time.
Can I keep coming back over and over? Do I help other things recurse? Or am I a good recursion target?
Blasting Station. Give me the creatures, I give you infinite damage.
Clone Shell. Basically a 2/2 that usually replaces itself with something better when it dies. People are probably still discovering the best combos with this guy.
Cloudstone Curio. The poster child for janky recursive combos. Limited only by your imagination.
Crucible of Worlds. Makes your lands recursive. Broken with Terramorphic Expanse, among others.
Deathrender. Recursable with several creatures, and probably capable of producing infinite combos.
Elixir of Immortality. Deck recursion and lifegain rolled into one beautiful card. Makes Feldon's Cane look like n00b fodder.
Esperzoa. Best friend of artifacts with enter-the-battlefield abilities.
Grinding Station. Give me the artifacts, and I'll do the milling.
Junk Diver. Get two and a sacrifice outlet, and stand back.
Myr Galvanizer. Two of these, a mana myr, maybe a Viridian Longbow... good times.
Myr Propagator. Exponential Myr, particularly next to its friend the Galvanizer.
Myr Reservoir. Recurses your dead Myr and then recasts them for you.
Nim Deathmantle. The more I play this, the more combos stick in my head. Makes your creatures hard to remove. Infinite combo with Composite Golem.
Salvaging Station. Re-use all those cool things Trinket Mage fetched for us.
Scythe of the Wretched. Put it on a creature that deals blanket damage, and get out of the way.
Sharuum the Hegemon. And if there are two...
Skull of Orm. Still one of the few enchantment returners, and still useful.
Sphinx Summoner. Excellent target for Master Transmuter and other recursers.
Summoning Station. Infinite Pincher token combos abound.
Sword of the Meek. Was pretty good, and then they printed Thopter Foundry.
2b. Gorilla Cards
Gorilla cards, as the name suggests, are the big, dumb facesmashers. The ones you lay on the table, and then pump your fist and scream "FTW!" - opponents are either dealing with them straight away or their time on this earth is limited.
Artifact-wise, we can split our gorillas into two categories - the beatstick creatures, and the non-creature artifacts that are big, bold and brash.
Artifact Creatures
Arcbound Overseer. Loves proliferate, too!
Arcbound Ravager. Helloooo Raffinity. While obviously not quite as good in multiplayer, Ravager still makes an awesome beatstick in the right deck.
Bosh, Iron Golem. A creature that comes with its own sound effect. : BOSH!
Eater of Days. If you can survive the two turns, you'll have fun. Or if you drop Torpor Orb first.
Filigree Angel. It's a 4/4 flier, and it usually gives you a pile of life in the process. Fun with Master Transmuter.
Leveler. Well, you're either swinging now, or you're playing Endless Whispers or Torpor Orb. It's not rocket science!
Lodestone Myr. Death by Myrtrample.
Magister Sphinx. It's a flying beatstick, and it handles that lifegain player in the corner before it's even swung.
Master of Etherium. The lord for artifact creatures.
Myr Battlesphere. Katamari Damacy for the win!
Phyrexian Dreadnought. The card that made Stifle worth $10+.
Psychosis Crawler. Nothing is subtle about hating on an entire MP table everytime you draw a card!
Razormane Masticore. It's probably the worst Masticore. And even then, it's a 5/5 for that can remove threats (i.e. it's darn good).
Reaper King. Hi! I'm playing Scarecrows! All your permanents will be leaving now!
Sen Triplets. Straight up neuters people. Much more viable in multiplayer, but will be an obvious threat.
Sharding Sphinx. A fat, flying beatstick that generates a following of thopters. Sensational in multiples.
Unsubtle Artifacts
Door of Destinies. A fixed Coat of Arms that only affects you (and is therefore a true gorilla).
Engineered Explosives. Almost targeted colourless removal. A legacy and vintage staple.
Eternity Vessel. Already obviously good. Nasty with proliferate or Energy Chamber.
Goblin Cannon / Rocket Launcher. The damage is limited only by the size of your mana pool.
Helm, Shield, and Sword of Kaldra. Each alone is good. Together, they're bats.
Jester's Cap. Remove an opponent's three biggest threats.
Jester's Mask. Target opponent wants a new hand.
Jester's Scepter. Badly disrupts one player. The bane of a Relentless Rats deck.
Legacy Weapon. There are few sweeter words on an artifact than "Exile target permanent".
Magistrate's Scepter. Four turns for the price of three!
Mindslaver. OK, done. Can I recurse it now?
Nevinyrral's Disk. The classic reset, especially in black or red decks. Unstoppable next to Darksteel Forge.
Oblivion Stone. An interesting take on the Disk. And an excellent budget reset.
Orochi Hatchery. When X=20, your opponents know what's happening next. Oh, and it uses charge counters.
Phyrexian Processor. Again, when X=20, your opponents know what's happening next!
Plague Boiler. Another interesting Disk variant that you can try and set yourself up with. In-colour with Glissa, the Traitor.
Platinum Angel. And it flies, too.
Platinum Emperion. Great, so long as you're not playing the $10 fetch lands!
Powder Keg. A slow-to-ramp reset.
Ratchet Bomb. A better, easier-to-cast Powder Keg.
Scourglass. A Disk variant that you can work to your advantage.
Snake Basket. I've made 200+ snakes before. How about you?
Worldslayer. Let's find ways of resetting the board over and over and over!
2c. Pigeon Cards
In real life, pigeons are fed better when there are more people around. They naturally flock to places where there are heaps of people with heaps of food. Likewise, Pigeon cards like hitting up the nine-player free-for-alls. These are usually the obvious "good in multiplayer" cards, benefiting from there being multiple opponents.
Beast of Burden. Is phat in multiplayer.
Bonehoard. Potentially huge with the extra graveyards it has in MP. Great with mill.
Brass Herald. Affects all creatures of the chosen type, so is sensational in 2HG or Emperor with everyone playing the same tribe. And good card draw to boot.
Fellwar Stone. The more opponents there are, the more likely it is to tap for any colour.
Mind's Eye. By far the best artifact card drawer for multiplayer. Up there with Rhystic Study.
Paradise Plume. Life gainer in the league of Soul Warden in multiplayer.
Sun Droplet. Once you get into the multiplayer arena, this makes you almost unkillable. One of the best pigeon artifacts.
2d. Rattlesnake Cards
We all know the famous "Don't tread on me" rattlesnake. Rattlesnake cards work in the same way - they say "Stay away, I'm dangerous" to your opponents.
Aether Spellbomb. Fetchable by Trinket Mage. Recursable with Academy Ruins. Card draw. Bounce. Combo. Combo. Combo.
Basilisk Collar. Nothing says "keep away" like deathtouch. Everything else makes the Collar gold.
Brittle Effigy. I've got and an itchy tapping finger... don't make me do it!
Dispeller's Capsule. Rattlesnake artifact and enchantment removal. Fetchable with Trinket Mage.
Executioner's Capsule. As per Dispeller's, for creatures.
Farsight Mask. Hurt me and I get cards.
Helm of Possession. Once again, the threat of theft.
Null Brooch. Forces your opponents to stall. Especially good with Grafted Skullcap.
Predator, Flagship. Underrated creature remover that also makes your guys evasive.
Pyrite Spellbomb. The red damage version of Aether Spellbomb, and just as good.
Quietus Spike. Nothing says "block me" like "I'll halve your life if you don't".
Snow Fortress. A criminally underrated wall that can take out attackers before it even needs to block.
Sunstone. A long-forgotten repeatable fog.
Tidehollow Strix. Flying and deathtouch = good defense.
Triskelion. Already a good deterrent, before you start putting it next to things like Immaculate Magistrate.
2e. Spider Cards
Spider cards spin a pretty web for your opponents, and then let them fly into it. They make your opponents pay for their uninformed decisions. Usually, these take the form of instants, so there aren't too many artifacts that fall into this category.
Darksteel Sentinel. The Sentinel's flash makes it produce some awkward blocks for your opponent, and gives you a solid body afterwards.
Grifter's Blade. It's a small surprise, but it's still a surprise.
2f. Plankton Cards
Ah, plankton. Where would whales be without it? Likewise, we can't have a whale of a time without Plankton cards - cards that allow everyone to feed off them or gain benefit. These are the cards that make you everybody's friend (at least until you start swinging at them).
Anvil of Bogardan. At least no-one cares until you drop a Megrim.
Blinkmoth Urn. Along the lines of Mana Flare. Free mana for all. Just make sure you get the most!
Extraplanar Lens. Mana Flare for a given land.
Font of Mythos. Cards! Cards! Cards!
Gate to the Aether. Another of those "everyone plays stuff for free" cards.
Gauntlet of Might. A red player's best friend.
Gauntlet of Power. A *insert colour here* player's best friend!
Genesis Chamber. Everyone gets a Myr!
Heartstone. Usually Sliver Queen's best friend, but benefits everyone. Wish they'd reprint it.
Helm of Awakening. Making everyone's stuff cheaper since 1996.
Horn of Greed. Cards for the table. Someone needs to put this in a landfall deck!
Horn of Plenty. Cards for all.
Howling Mine. Cards for all.
Infinite Hourglass. It's utterly bonkers, and it turns the game on its head.
Konda's Banner. One or two of your opponents suddenly like that legendary guy a whole lot more.
Memory Jar. At least it helps everyone until you drop a Megrim.
Mycosynth Lattice. Who cares what colour your lands are now? Just have fun until I drop Memnarch!
Tangleroot. Green mana for everyone. Just make sure you're the one playing elves.
Teferi's Puzzle Box. Lets everyone cycle through their decks, for better or worse!
Temple Bell. A new variant on Howling Mine.
2g. Combinations
Often, cards can be a combination of the above categories.
In reality, a lot of the very best cards are going to be those that serve a dual purpose. So a lot of the bomb artifacts you want are going to be in this list, achieving two very separate purposes for you at the same time.
Cockroach/Gorilla: I'm big, dumb, and I just hang around! This includes hard-to-kill gorillas, continuous effects that win the game, and bomb equipment.
Akroma's Memorial. Let's see... if you can't rid of this in the next couple of turns, every single one of my creatures turns into Akroma? Yeeeaaah...
Argentum Armor: Watch me! If the creature I've equipped attacks, I can piff it! And I'm still around after that!
Behemoth Sledge. Essentially a repeatable Armadillo Cloak. Nothing subtle about that!
Blightsteel Colossus. Indestructible and kills in one swing. Can we ask anything more?
Cranial Plating. Repeatable house-maker in an artifact deck.
Darksteel Colossus. The prototype indestructible gorilla. Currently out of Standard, but still getting snapped up by casual players like the hero it is.
Darksteel Forge. An "FTW" for artifact decks. This + Mycosynth Lattice + Memnarch = a slow drawn-out death for all of your opponents, one by one.
Darksteel Juggernaut. Almost as good as a Colossus. If only it had trample!
Eldrazi Monument. All my creatures indestructible, you say?
Glassdust Hulk. Surprisingly big, repeatably unblockable, and you can cycle it to boot.
Goblin Charbelcher. People have built decks that allow this to go off for lethal. Over and over.
Inkwell Leviathan. An untargetable facesmasher. Fun to drop with Quest for Ula's Temple.
Loxodon Warhammer. The N00bstick, so named because any ol' n00b can smash face with it over and over.
Lux Cannon. Subtle, it is not. Repeatable, it certainly is.
Mage Slayer. You're probably putting it on another gorilla, too. Like Charnelhoard Wurm.
Masticore. Legendarily good. Regeneration makes it harder to kill, and you know it's going to sweep your board eventually.
Memnarch. He's going to take your stuff, and yet he's big enough to leave a dent still.
Molten-Tail Masticore. Is it as good as the original? You be the judge. It's close.
Mycosynth Golem. Accelerates your deck, and is still a respectable body in itself.
Sphinx of the Steel Wind. Has taken Darksteel Colossus's throne as best artifact finisher. Extremely hard to kill, is a big flying body, and has the adorable combination of vigilance and lifelink.
Cockroach/Rattlesnake: I'm repeatably warding everyone off!
Erratic Portal. Use it on your opponent's creatures when they tap out, or on your own if there's benefits involved.
Forcefield. It's old, expensive, and a threat of complete lockdown to your opponents.
Gorgon Flail. Inexpensive, cheap to cast, and frightens people off over and over.
Grafted Exoskeleton. As above, minus the cheap to cast bit!
Grim Poppet. Adores proliferate, underrated creature removal.
Icy Manipulator. One of the originals in this category. Excellent control.
Kuldotha Forgemaster. No-one's broken this yet, but I suspect it's due. Its ability has the potential to be very good in multiplayer environments.
Spine of Ish Sah. Recurses and sits in your hand, threatening to take the next big threat on the table. Who cares if it costs ? It's repeatable colourless removal!
Stuffy Doll. Impossible to kill, last thing you want blocking your gorilla.
Cockroach/Spider: You just fell for the trap! Again!
Cryptic Gateway. Tribal creature-sneaker that works instantly. Raging fun with Dragons and other fat tribes.
Master Transmuter. I've seen it swap a thopter token for a Darksteel Colossus. In response to an attack. Repeatable recursion, saves itself too.
Vedalken Orrery. Turns every nonland card of yours into a potential trap.
Cockroach/Plankton: I'm repeatable, and everyone loves it!
Contagion Clasp: Throw those -1/-1 counters around. Well, your opponents at least have a chance of enjoying what you proliferate.
Contagion Engine: The Clasp, squared.
Gorilla/Pigeon: I'm big, dumb, and I love having people around!
Arcbound Crusher. Sure, he's little when he comes out. But if you're playing him, you're playing him in an artifact deck, and he's getting big fast. And he loves other people playing artifacts too.
Sphinx Sovereign. It's already a flying monster. When it nails everyone for three life at end of turn? That's just gold.
Sundering Titan. Not only is it huge, it's also less likely to be taking your own lands in this environment. And then there's Master Transmuter...
Gorilla/Rattlesnake: I'm big, dumb and frightening!
Chimeric Mass. Becomes the beatstick you want on command, and can get very, very big.
Ethersworn Adjudicator. Sits and threatens, and people forget it also happens to be a 4/4 flier.
Magma Mine. It's amazing how you get ignored once it's past four counters or so.
Steel Hellkite. It's massive, flying and pumpable. And if I let it through, it's taking a bunch of my permanents with it?
Time Bomb. As per Magma Mine, makes you invisible once it gets a decent number of counters.
Triskelavus. It's a 4/4 flier already. And then it starts behaving like a Triskelion. Or a Tetravus.
Wurmcoil Engine. Fat, deathtouching, and reproduces on death. Now I want to recurse it!
Gorilla/Plankton: I'm big and dumb, and everyone loves me!
Coat of Arms. I've now got ten 10/10s! Hang on... what did it give you? Oh...
Pigeon/Rattlesnake: I'm scary and I'm bothering the whole table!
Norn's Annex. The new gold standard in multiplayer defense. Has the potential to completely shut out non-white decks and token decks from attack.
Nullstone Gargoyle. Forces the whole table to stall. And given it's a 4/5 flier to boot, that can be handy.
Thought Prison. Stall and pain for the whole table if you choose well.
Pigeon/Plankton: I'm affecting the whole table, and I like having more people around.
Storm Cauldron. Well, they love the "two lands a turn" bit. They're probably not so keen on the rest. Infinite with Fastbond and Glacial Chasm. Can stall the board.
Rattlesnake/Spider: I'm scary, and I trap people.
3. Colour-Hosers and Alternate-Wins
There are only a couple of obvious colour-hosers and alternate wins that come in artifact form.
The colour-hosers, while few in number, are nonetheless interesting and fun to play with.
Naked Singularity is not so much a colour-hoser as an "everyone not playing artifacts" hoser. This plus Eon Hub in an all-artifact deck is a guarantee of hate.
Quicksilver Fountain is a blue mage's way of hosing every non-blue player.
And while not an artifact itself, special mention should be given to Ritual of Subdual, which turns all mana colourless while it is out. This helps the game play heavily to the favour of the artifact player (especially with Eon Hub out), but will get them hated on fairly quickly!
The alternate win-conditions provided by artifacts were disappointing and hard to pull off until Mirrodin Beseiged came out. Now, it's death by Blightsteel Colossus poisoning. And two other impossible options.
Darksteel Reactor is an alt-win that will earn you no friends. Let's put a twenty-turn clock on all of my opponents and see if I can last that long!
Door to Nothingness is nigh-on-impossible to activate once, let alone enough times to remove all of your opponents. It's harder to use effectively in multiplayer, as it's going to frighten more people.
Poison Decks are now completely viable in multiplayer thanks solely to Blightsteel Colossus. Unblocked, it's an insta-gib. Previously, we were limited solely to Serpent Generator, Corpse Cur, Ichorclaw Myr, Necropede and Vector Asp as artifacts capable of dealing poison counters. There is also Grafted Exoskeleton, which is perhaps the only other decent artifact-based alt-win - throw Grafted Exoskeleton on something large and evasive and go to town (hmm... Sphinx of the Steel Wind looks even better all of a sudden...).
4. Artifacts and Various Colours
These days, white is the colour of Equipment and artifact protection. While there are a few other fun things we can do here, Equipment is probably our focus when playing a white artifact deck.
- Argivian Archaeologist is very old, but still useful in artifact recursion.
- Armament Master is a fun tribal equipment target.
- Auriok Salvagers is a decent recurser of cheap artifacts, but is probably better alongside Trinket Mage in a deck.
- Auriok Steelshaper is both a tribal lord and an equip cost reducer.
- Bringer of the White Dawn is big, angry and recursing your artifacts every turn.
- Dispatch is essentially a budget Swords to Plowshares in an artifact-heavy white deck (and therefore awesome).
- Elspeth, Knight-Errant is your planeswalker of choice, potentially giving you a permanent Darksteel Forge effect for your artifacts (among other good stuff).
- Enlightened Tutor will fetch the artifact you want.
- Fountain Watch is a little-known shroud-giver.
- Indomitable Archangel plays along with your Metalcraft strategies, handing out shroud while being a serviceable beatstick.
- Kemba, Kha Regent is a fun equipment target.
- Leonin Abunas gives your artifacts troll-shroud! Even better!
- Leonin Shikari makes your equipping instant, giving you an armament of tricks.
- Myrsmith generates little Myr guys for you at a rapid pace.
- Open the Vaults is an artifact Replenish for everyone. Hope your graveyard's looking better than everyone else's!
- Puresteel Paladin is the new equipment guy on the block - potentially some very good future decks to be built around this guy.
- Roar of Reclamation is a powered-down Open the Vaults.
- Second Sunrise will help save your artifacts from annihilation.
- Soulscour is the ultimate reset in an artifact deck. This on a Panoptic Mirror is GG.
- Stoneforge Mystic is the best equipment fetcher money can buy.
- Stonehewer Giant is not far behind the Mystic, and often wears the equipment it fetches.
- Tempered Steel boosts your artifact creatures.
Blue is the key artifact colour. Want to build an artifact-heavy deck? Chances are that the one colour you're running in the background is blue. With its powerful tutors and artifact-related power abilities, it has been the colour of artifice since the very beginnings of Magic.
- Arcum Dagsson will turn your artifact creature fodder into non-creature artifacts (thopters for Darksteel Forge, anyone?).
- Argivian Restoration is one of the best single artifact recursers available.
- Artificer's Intuition will help you cycle through a Trinket Mage toolbox.
- Copy Artifact is the original Sculpting Steel, and still cheap and useful.
- Fabricate is probably the standard artifact tutor these days.
- Grand Architect is about as close to a Metalworker as you can get, and will make your artifact creatures go bonkers.
- Hurkyl's Recall will save your artifacts from extinction, or bounce someone else's.
- Lumengrid Sentinel will keep your opponents under control while you artifact it up.
- March of the Machines is the ultimate animater.
- Mind Over Matter is the untapper of choice in Academy decks.
- Power Artifact is old and well-known for breaking Grim Monolith.
- Rebuild bounces all artifacts, and cycles to boot.
- Reduce to Dreams is similar.
- Reshape is a powered-down Tinker.
- Shape Anew is an artifact Polymorph that you can work to your advantage.
- Show and Tell can sneak a bomb artifact into play.
- Tezzeret the Seeker is your planeswalker of choice. Brilliant in heavy artifact decks.
- Thirst For Knowledge is a good card drawer for an artifact deck.
- Tinker is so good it's restricted in Vintage. Swaps your artifact land for your Darksteel Colossus. Third turn.
- Transmute Artifact is an old, slightly different take on Tinker.
- Treasure Mage fetches your fatties.
- Trinket Mage is now famous as the toolbox fetcher, tutoring for the small artifact you want.
- Turnabout is an underrated artifact untapper.
- Vedalken Archmage is an artifact Verduran Enchantress. Sends heavy artifact decks into overdrive.
- Vedalken Infuser is capable of producing some charge counter shenanigans in the same league as Energy Chamber.
Black has little interaction with artifacts, usually just forcing people to sacrifice them rather than actually working with them. The majority listed here will reward you for playing artifacts, or punish your opponents for killing them.
- Beacon of Unrest will repeatably recur artifacts (or creatures, and out of opponents' graveyards too).
- Disciple of the Vault punishes people for destroying your artifacts.
- Geth, Lord of the Vault is able to fetch you artifacts out of your opponents' graveyards.
- Guardian Beast protects your artifacts. And cares not for the colour pie.
- Irradiate can be decent creature removal in an artifact-heavy deck.
- Mephitic Ooze likes being around lots of artifacts.
- Moriok Rigger grows as your artifacts die.
- Painsmith hands out deathtouch as you play artifacts.
- Phylactery Lich needs an artifact to reward you.
- Priest of Yawgmoth will turn your artifacts into black mana.
- Reprocess can turn your artifacts into cards.
Red is expert at destroying artifacts. Working with them? Not so much its strong point. Most of the red cards of note will allow you to sacrifice artifacts for your own benefit.
- Barrage Ogre throws your artifacts at other people's faces.
- Bazaar Trader passes your artifacts around. Here, have this Bronze Bombshell!
- Goblin Welder plays swapsies between battlefield and graveyard.
- Godo, Bandit Warlord is a Samurai lord who can tutor for equipment.
- Hellkite Igniter is a fat flier who likes working with artifact-heavy decks.
- Krark-Clan Shaman starts generating earthquakes when you sacrifice artifacts.
- Megatog is the original Atog on steroids.
- Molten Psyche is a Wheel of Fortune variant that likes having Metalcraft.
- Slobad, Goblin Tinkerer will throw indestructibility around for your artifacts as needed.
While green is very good at destroying artifacts, or rewarding you for having opponents play artifacts, it has little synergy with artifact-heavy decks.
- Hypergenesis can drop your expensive artifacts into play quickly.
- Scarwood Bandits is a situational artifact stealer.
- Titania's Song is an old March of the Machines that ignores the colour pie.
There are a couple more rather esoteric gold cards that haven't rated a mention as of yet.
- Glissa, the Traitor is an efficient beater capable of producing artifact recursion. Very good with Executioner's Capsule.
- Hanna, Ship's Navigator recurses your artifacts over and over.
- Mishra, Artificer Prodigy will work well in an artifact-heavy deck where you want multiples of certain cards on the table.
- Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas is fun, sure, but nowhere near as good as Tezz 1.0 in a heavy artifact deck.
5. Land and Artifact Mana Sources
Of the handful of lands that work well with artifacts, some are famous, some are banned or restricted, and some are rarely going to hit a multiplayer table.
- Tolarian Academy has to be the gold standard here. It spawned a meta-dominating tourney deck, and saw several cards restricted. In an artifact-heavy deck, it is an exceptional accelerant. Making it an artifact itself, and then untapping it constantly... that's where it starts getting evil.
- In any other format, Mishra's Workshop would probably be listed first. Only because of the longer play time in multiplayer does it lose out here. It's still sensational.
- 12-Post (4 Cloudposts, 4 Glimmerposts, 4 Vesuva) is possibly the best potentially budget solution available to those working an artifact deck at a kitchen table. It's such effective mana ramping that Cloudpost has been banned in Modern.
- Academy Ruins allows for some excellent recursion of artifacts, and is particularly good with the Spellbombs in a Trinket Mage toolbox deck.
- The Mirrodin artifact lands (Ancient Den, Great Furnace, Seat of the Synod, Tree of Tales, Vault of Whispers) are great to combo with things that care about the number of artifacts in play (such as Master of Etherium, or anything with Metalcraft abilities).
- Darksteel Citadel has discovered new life as Phylactery Lich's BFF (here indestructible creature, meet indestructible artifact land).
- Glimmervoid will give you coloured mana to play with.
- There are also plenty of lands that become artifact creatures - Blinkmoth Nexus, Dread Statuary, Gargoyle Castle, Inkmoth Nexus, Mishra's Factory and Stalking Stones. Urza's Factory produces multiple artifact creatures.
Artifact Mana Sources
As we know, there are also plenty of artifact mana sources or enablers around. Let's look at the most effective options here.
- Basalt Monolith. Good mana source, breakable with Voltaic Key. A budget Grim Monolith.
- Black Lotus. It's a few grand a copy for a reason.
- Candelabra of Tawnos. Baaroken with lands that produce more than one mana.
- Chrome Mox. It's got 'Mox' in its card name, and it's banned in Modern. That means it's not bad.
- Coalition Relic. Possibly the best budget stone that can produce any colour. Likes proliferation, too.
- Doubling Cube. Needs seven mana to start doubling, so is slow to get going, but great after that.
- Everflowing Chalice. Great colourless mana source. Fun with proliferate.
- Expedition Map. While not a stone in itself, it fetches your best non-basic land (usually Academy Ruins first, so you can do it again). Trinket Mage finds it, too.
- Fellwar Stone. It's old, but it deserves mention as it becomes that much better in multiplayer.
- Gilded Lotus. The card that made people play Twiddle again.
- Grim Monolith. Basalt Monolith, bigger, better and just as combo-able.
- Lion's Eye Diamond. At first, people thought losing your hand was too big a disadvantage. And now it's a Vintage staple.
- Lotus Bloom. The suspended Lotus. You've got a three-turn wait, and it's still awesome.
- Lotus Blossom. Possibly the worst Lotus, and yet still underrated.
- Lotus Petal. The best common ever printed, period.
- Mana Vault. Another of the mana artifacts that drove the Academy deck.
- Metalworker. Insanely good mana producer that is worth over $10, and yet still worth every cent.
- Mox Diamond. Almost as good as the original Moxen.
- Mox Emerald, Jet, Pearl, Ruby and Sapphire. N00bs won't understand until they try playing with them.
- Mox Opal. The more 0CC artifacts get printed, the more broken this will get.
- Sol Ring. Another accelerant that is worth every cent. An EDH staple.
- Thran Dynamo. One of the best not-so-broken mana sources. Loves being next to Voltaic Key.

November 25, 2014
PESCARA, Italy (AP) - Australian rider Adam Hansen won the hilly and rainy seventh stage of the Giro d'Italia on Friday with a solo breakaway, and Benat Intxausti of Spain took the overall lead.
Tour de France champion Bradley Wiggins had trouble negotiating the slippery roads on a descent shortly before the finish. He fell at one point but did not appear to suffer a major injury. Still, he lost more than a minute to the other contenders.
Hansen, who rides for Lotto Belisol, clocked more than 4 1/2 hours over the 109-mile leg from San Salvo to Pescara.
Intxausti took a 5-second lead over top contender Vincenzo Nibali, with defending champion Ryder Hesjedal was 8 seconds back in third.

My mom spend a lot of time in front of the mirror putting on makeup, perfecting her hair, and obsessing over perceived flaws and her weight. It's taken me a long time and still working on breaking out of those patterns of focusing so much on appearance and accepting my natural self. I love what she said about how she approaches this with her own children.Jessicahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-46384419459569911062014-03-19T17:27:52.077-04:002014-03-19T17:27:52.077-04:00Been following her Instagram for some time, and I ... Been following her Instagram for some time, and I love that she's beautiful but not showy. She's spot on about children picking up on our views on beauty and insecurity. I am very concienscious of this around my 5 yr old daughter. I never complain about my looks in front of her. Hope that pays off one day. stacyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-48471986210003873482014-03-19T15:42:30.492-04:002014-03-19T15:42:30.492-04:00Oh totally forgot to say PLEASE do Mimi Thorisson!...Oh totally forgot to say PLEASE do Mimi Thorisson!!!

I'm no...this is wonderful!! Thanks for sharing. I'm no where near being a parent, but I do think it's so refreshing and empowering to hear women older and more experienced than I am de-emphasizing looks. I truly do believe inner confidence brings out one's beauty more than anything! Joanna, I'd love if you could maybe do a post like this but for people on a budget? I love reading about products and routines but a lot of the time I can't afford even the moisturizers :) xxxxinahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-26606225064320214552014-03-19T12:45:40.597-04:002014-03-19T12:45:40.597-04:00Thank you everyone for saying such lovely, lovely ...Thank you everyone for saying such lovely, lovely things. I am sitting here blushing in front of my computer screen as I read all these nice comments. What a wonderfully kind and supportive group of women you all are. Joanna is a lucky lady to have so many lovely readers. :) xxx Courtney Courtney Adamohttp://firstname.lastname@example.com
