Dear loser trying to hack into my WoW account
by, 28th October 2012 at 06:31 PM (1274 Views)
Back off! You are an idiot, have not succeeded twice so give it up.
Sorry, just need a little rant here really. Let me explain, a couple of months ago I found my account was locked due to an attempted account theft (On World of Warcraft of course). Then today it was locked again on another attempt.
Riddle me this: Why is some idiot trying to hack into an account, that hasn't been online in a year? Yes, I was still downloading that 15kb patch from February due to constant crashing after each GB, (It's now finished after they replaced it with a new launcher, and I moved with a better internet connection). Yes I am still looking at the forums and logging into my account.
However! The fact I have no money on my account, so I can't play Wow or post on the forums... So how do they know I am still here? Shouldn't I have disappeared into oblivion since February? I am pretty much a ghost looking at the forums, only posted in like late Feb when the launcher would crash, so I asked for help, that's it.
Do people attempt to steal inactive accounts more? How do they even know about it? I know how they can know about inactive accounts, but they would have to search for me to find that out.
And does this mean my account was more safe when I could log into the game? O.O (I remember last year when I went on a few months hiatus, the same thing happened, guess that's the connection. Yes, all THREE attempts failed, and I don't even have that authericer thing. I can;t really get that either.).
I am getting a pre-paid WoW card today, so I am going back to it. For now.
Oh hacker, I know you probably won't see this, even if you do, you have no way in knowing which character I am or what my account even is. But you attempted three times, just give it up and go back to tricking people into giving their passwords. I am probably tempting fate by this, but I will deal with it when it comes.

The front door of a family house in the center of the Ulus castle, the old neighborhood at the heart of Turkey's capital city. Ankara is a modern city that often leaves the visitor thinking he is in Europe, but occasional turns around the corner present a new world and a step back in time.

The cheerful blue color on this framing immediately jumped out at me, so I have tried to accent it in a black and white environment. My only wish is that I could have captured more of the wall, but since my back was pressed against the opposite wall already there wasn't much else I could do. It is always amazing to me to watch cars and trucks thread their way up and down these cobblestone streets, built centuries ago for donkeys and handcarts.

At any rate, the resulting picture appeals to me for its mystery, for the sense that this door might open onto almost anything.

Sensational image great find.
fantastic capture
great textures- an excellent sense of age
Lovely capture color and textures well done. Bravo!
très belle photo, très beau contraste entre le gris neutre et le bleu vif
Very well done, great work!

Okla. police find 6 cold case bodies at bottom of lake
Police were using new sonar equipment when they located two vehicles at the bottom of the lake, which may have gone missing, along with their passengers, in the 60's and 70's
By Michael pearson Michael Martinez
FOSS, Okla. — It's a mystery more than four decades in the making. Two cars — rusted, caked with mud and carrying as many as six bodies — are pulled from the bottom of an Oklahoma lake.
According to CNN affiliates KFOR and KOCO, Custer County sheriff's deputies weren't looking for the cars Tuesday, but found them when Oklahoma Highway Patrol sonar equipment being used for another purpose revealed their location at the bottom of Foss Lake, a reservoir about 150 miles west of Oklahoma City.
Investigators say they believe one car may have belonged to a teenager who disappeared with two friends in 1970. The other car could be linked to the disappearance of a man in the early 1960s, media reported.

Oil Investing
Oil investing hardly needs an introduction as the petroleum industry has been the single most influential industry in the last century. Yet, talks about peak oil and environmental concerns over fossil fuels have sparked new debates about the viability of oil-based energy and the future of oil investing. Today, the industry remains in a state of flux: on one hand, concerns over running out of conventional fuels have led us scrambling to find alternative sources, on the other hand, the lack of a better solution means that oil continues to be our most important energy source.
The oil investing archive below uncovers the most important factors affecting oil markets and oil stocks. Our in-depth analysis—featuring exclusive charts and data—reveals the best long-term trends in oil investing and identifies the actionable investment opportunities to profit from these trends.
Be sure to also check out Profit from the Shale Gas Revolution, our authoritative free guide on investing in the most prolific trend in energy of the last 50 years.
The Mystery of Bottomless Reserves
Despite the recent gains in oil output, reserves have more than kept pace thanks to new technologies and higher prices.
Saudi Arabia Still Calling the Shots
The leading OPEC member's attempt to squeeze U.S. shale producers might not work. But no one can stop it from trying.
What's Your Oil Company Worth?
The recent drop in crude prices could hurt some companies' reserve estimates at year end, but these remain a useful guide for bargain hunters.
Searching for a Bottom
The crude correction is near the end after pricing out some of the costliest drilling prospects, and inexpensive rebound plays abound.
Low Gas Prices Are Not a Plot
Ignore claims of political manipulation. The dive in crude and shift to cheaper winter gasoline are the real drivers of the discounts at the pump.
A Needless Alarm Over Oil Reserves
Recent claims that drillers are dramatically overstating their resource potential stem from confusion over definitions.
Buying Fear, Selling Greed
The right time to own a leveraged oil driller isn't as obvious as it might seem.
With Trusts, It Pays to Verify
Beware stock screeners that are only as good as their data. In the case of Whiting USA Trust, the apparent value is a mirage.
Down and Dirty With Fossil Fuels
The world's favorite energy sources have important drawbacks as well, notably in terms of pollution and global warming.
A Slippery Slope for Crude
Oil's recent slide has hurt energy stocks but should reward the patient investor.

If that's all you know about EDM, then it proves you don't know **** about it indeed. If you look furter than what comes up first page on google when you type in EDM, you'd see that there is an ENORMOUS array of genres and subgenres that all sound radically different from eachother and keep evolving and merging into newer ones. but instead of doing that you just splurt out the generic "hurr hurr all sound the same, if it ain't rock it sucks cock" crap.

Denver's coolest Christmas-time beer festival is getting bigger — and is moving some of its jolly fun outside of Denver as well.
Festivus will celebrate its third year of airing grievances and gathering all of Denver's breweries in one room on Dec. 13 at the McNichols Civic Center Building. But before that it also will drop two presents on Boulder and Fort Collins — local Festivus gatherings of their own, attempting to bring all of those cities' breweries together in holiday cheer.
For those who haven't been to Festivus, the particular joy of the event, aside from all the people who show up in ugly sweaters, is that it gets pretty much every brewery within Mile High City limits in one room, sort of like a Great Denver Beer Festival. And event organizer P.J. Hoberman has instructed participants to bring at least one rare or one-off beer to be served, producing an abundance of sours and barrel-aged treats along with the traditional offerings found at other festivals.
That kind of city exclusivity and creativity drew 26 brewers to the event last year. In a sign of how much the Denver beer scene is growing, 39 already had committed to Festivus 2014 by the end of October - including some that will be nearly, but not quite, open.
"As Denver has such a great beer scene, it's fun to have them all under one roof," Hoberman, of Denver Off the Wagon fame, said. "You can talk to that brewer and try that beer and then go buy it the next day."
It only makes sense, then, to bring out the highlights of Fort Collins (Dec. 12) and Boulder (Dec. 5) in the same way. Boulder, after all, can argue that it's America's oldest craft brewing town as home to the longest-running craft brewery in the country (Boulder Beer) and a few second-generation pioneers like Avery Brewing and Mountain Sun that made a national name for themselves or ingrained themselves fully in Colorado's culture. And Fort Collins - with its easy-touring beer avenue and run of national attention-grabbers like New Belgium, Odell and Funkwerks - may have the most impressive per-capita brewery power of any city in America.
Both of those Festivi will be smaller, featuring about 18 breweries, Hoberman said. As such, he is holding the events in smaller venues and is expecting smaller crowds (details here, scroll down on page).
Here's a bet, though, that both can be popular as Denver's if they are run well and the local brewing community responds. And when I asked Hoberman if he's willing to expand the festival to other cities - Colorado Springs' brewing community has grown to the point where it certainly could support one too, I argue - he said he would.
"We'd love to expand it to any city that has a brewing culture to support the event and any city that wants it," he said.
Fair enough. Let the Festivus games begin.

For those who've never had the chance to spend Saturday afternoon drinking nitrogenated treats and Sunday afternoon pairing imperial stouts with whiskey candied bacon ice cream, you really need to rethink your weekend agenda.
But after two great festivals - Left Hand's Nitro Fest, which went on in a tent outside the brewery despite Saturday's snow, and Sunday's Denver Beer and Bacon Festival that was overly crowded but still showed some original flourishes - one can pick a few things about where the craft beer industry is going. And with that, here are some things learned from this past weekend's bashes.
1) Nitro Fest
* The IPA on nitro can be a good thing.
Nitro is best known as a smoothing agent for big porters but an additive that makes a sharp, hoppy beer a little boring. But if done well, a little bit of a gas actually can sharpen up an IPA. Take, for example, Green Flash's West Coast IPA, a wickedly bitter beer that, with the addition of nitrogen, becomes more approachable but still blasts you with a mouthful of fresh grass. Or there is Bear Republic's Demolition Derby, which gives not only a hard hop finish but a barrel-aged woodiness that shines with the nitro. This is a trend that needs to be pushed further.
* Coffee and pumpkin make a nitro beer glow.
Left Hand rolled out six nitro beers for its birthday bash, but none shined as brightly as Beer Week Sauce, its too-often-overlooked coffee porter that takes on hints of creamy vanilla when gassed up. Just as intriguing: Mountain Sun's Dark Harvest Pumpkin Stout, which is a melange of spices knocked down just one smooth notch to the point where you could drink the complex beer all day.
* Boulder Beer's Shake may be the two best beers of 2014.
Few offerings this year have seemed as genuinely unique as the chocolate porter that tastes like an old-time ice cream treat. But when it's on nitro, it becomes less straight beer and more desert treat - and it may be more intriguing.
2) Bacon and Beer Festival
* S**t you never thought of pairing goes very well together
Maybe you've never had Little Man Ice Cream's whiskey candied bacon ice cream. Even if you have, maybe you'd never thought "Wow, what beer compliments this?" The answer is: Though an Epic Imperial Stout (pictured above) introduces a commonly sought tough-on-sweet texture with the ice cream, the real winner is the Elevation/Epic Epication Blackberry Imperial Saison, which brings out the sweetness in the candied meat like nothing you'd expect. And that's what happens when you get to pair a lot of porks and porters in one brilliantly conceived festival.
* The next big taste? How about a hoppy wheat?
Once a style that seemed more a lark than a serious effort, the light but bitter combo of two seemingly disparate tastes now is coming together quite successfully. TRVE's Scorn, a dry-hopped pale wheat, was extremely crisp and eye-opening. And Denver Beer Co's hopped wheat, which is soon to be its next canned offering, stepped the game up even more with a great blending of the lemon mouthfeel of the wheat and the citrus bite of the hops. Oh, and if you can pair it with Cap City Tavern's bacon potato torte with pork belly, all the better.
* Our Mutual Friend has some tricks up its sleeve.
The most interesting beer of Beer and Bacon was a brown ale from the RiNo brewery - that had been run through a randall full of orange peel, cocoa nibs and Amarillo hops, picking up the orange peel especially to give it a dark desert type of feel. At a time when many breweries experiment by going extreme, the idea of going sweet and subtle with a standard beer was a great winner.

With 67 breweries and nearly 200 beers on hand, Colorado Springs' biggest annual beer event once again was a great way to get a snapshot of the state scene. And between tasting at the festival and participating as a celebrity judge, there are a few things one couldn't help but notice.
1) Pikes Peak Brewing is reaching new heights.
The best beer at the festival - and the one that seemed to generate the most conversation - was a Whiskey Barrel-Aged Stout from the Monument brewery that somehow took on sour characteristics. Both the complexity of the beer - it maintained a dark, sweet body even as it took on sour overtones - and the fact that brewery owner Chris Wright decided to run with an experiment gone differently than he expected shows just how mature this 3-1/2-year-old brewery is getting. And its Penrose Private Reserve, a Belgian golden ale aged in red-wine barrels, wasn't too shabby either.
2) The next big Fort Collins brewery? How about Horse and Dragon?
The hall at the All Colorado Beer Festival often features a lot of newer beer makers looking to make their name. And it reinforced a thought that others have said for several months now - that Horse and Dragon, which opened in May, is worthy of grabbing attention even in one of the state's best beer towns. Particularly interesting was its Sad Panda Coffee Stout, a beer that wasn't just heavy on coffee but on creamy vanilla and caramel flavors, putting a new spin on the style.
3) It's time for more chai beers.
Yak and Yeti has earned well-deserved national accolades for its Chai Milk Stout, but for some reason other breweries have seemed slow to pick up on this interesting flavor profile. Avery's typically taproom-only Chai Brown, which was hidden back in the VIP tent, was every bit as good, though, cushioning the extra spice with a solid brown body that complimented it well. The only question: When will more breweries jump on this emerging bandwagon?
4) Biggest surprise: Shamrock Brewing
I got to judge the specialty category with two others this year, and it was only later that we discovered the highly flavorful, well-balanced winner we chose was Shamrock's Death by Coconut Chocolate Porter. But the Pueblo brewery, once an afterthought in southern Colorado's beer scene, also brought along a Big Papa double IPA that was simultaneously smooth and huge in flavor.
5) Colorado Springs' newest breweries are producing decidedly mixed results.
As a former Springs resident, I've been pleased to see the explosion of breweries down there over the past two years - but not all new breweries are equal. Iron Bird Brewing rolled out a crisp, well-made IPA. but Fieldhouse Brewing's watery Cranberry Saison and Nano 108's overly malted and oddly bitter Imperial IPA show there is certainly some work still to be done. That's not saying these breweries won't grow into great representatives of the local scene; they're just not all there yet.

Saturday, November 01, 2014
Traditionally, the time between the Great American Beer Festival and Christmas largely has been a dry season, when brewers worry about getting out their winter seasonals and beer drinkers allow their livers to recover. But not this year.
Instead, this month brings a bevy of opportunities to sample a great variety of beers in settings that are new or only just becoming familiar. And before the snow gets really good in the mountains, it may be worth clearing your calendar and dedicating the next four weeks to beer tasting.
Saturday, Nov. 1: All Colorado Beer Festival, Colorado Springs
What started many years ago as a mid-sized festival has grown to 67 breweries serving 200 beers this year - plus two cideries and a kombucha maker. And if last year's selection was any indication, the brewers will be getting creative with what they bring.
One thing that's cool about the All Colorado Beer Festival - aside from the state-centered focus implied in its name - is the fact that it's one of the few festivals in the state that awards medals from a panel of certified judges. (And celebrity judges like yours truly, hence the picture above.) It's the best beer fest in the Springs area, and it's worth the $35 price for tickets to the 1 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. sessions.
Saturday, Nov. 8: Boulder IPA Fest
Avery Brewing's annual celebration of the hop shows off not just its grassy products but a lot of other fine stuff as well. Tickets are $45 and the festival runs from noon to 5 p.m.
Saturday, Nov. 15: Left Hand Nitro Fest, Longmont
This celebration of nitrogenated beers is believed to be the first such specialty festival in Colorado and maybe in the country. But when the beer gurus at Left Hand thought about a clever way to celebrate their 21st birthday this year, thoughts turned quite quickly to focusing on a style of beer that the brewery is becoming known for nationwide.
Twenty-three breweries will be bringing nitro beers, and many will be available for the first time in Colorado or anywhere outside of the breweries. These aren't just the porters and stouts that have become known as the primary brewery styles, either - Green Flash's West Coast IPA, Elysian's P. Smoove Pumpkin Cream Ale and Dogfish Head's Chicory Stout are among the others on tap.
And Left Hand will move beyond the three beers it has universally available on nitro and offer three more - its session IPA, its Black Jack Porter and its coffee porter, marketing director Emily Armstrong said. Tickets for the 3 to 7 p.m. festival are $50.
Sunday, Nov. 16: Denver Bacon and Beer Festival
This is the third year for the celebration of pork, porter, pales and pilsner, and it's growing once again. A full 1,100 tickets are available for the show at the Curtis hotel, which is scheduled from 2:30 to 5 p.m.
If you haven't been before, the idea is no fancier than the title. About 20 breweries bring beers that they think might pair well with something porky and salty, and about 25 breweries bring something clever they've made with bacon. Attendees travel from booth to booth in a blissful celebration of beer and carnivorous behavior.
Organizer P.J. Hoberman of Denver Off the Wagon, which also is offering a five-course dinner for $65 at The Lobby the night before, said the appeal is pretty obvious. "I think honestly most beer does pair well with pork. Think about a nice roasty stout with a good piece of bacon." I'm sold.
Thursday, Nov. 20: Chef and Brew
general admission ticket.
Friday, Nov. 21: American Craft Beer Radio Holiday Beer Bash
Moving this year to Wings Over the Rockies Museum, Gary Valliere's big party (pictured at top) will feature about 35 breweries. Last year, the majority of them poured some version of their winter seasonals, making this the perfect gathering for people who love to check out what they should be drinking throughout December. The show runs from 5 to 9 p.m., and tickets are $35.

While handing out treats on Friday night you want to have a few tricks up your sleeve - such as enjoying the best pumpkin beer possible. Luckily,brewers showed restraint this year, reversing a trend from last year where many of the seasonal offerings were entirely over-spiced and marginally acceptable at best.
But what stood out most during this October season? Here's one beer geek's suggestions as to how you can conjure up the most for your taste buds in one handful of pumpkin goodness.
1) Pumking - Southern Tier Brewing (pictured at left)
In a universe of complex pumpkin beers, what makes this quaffable and smooth offering stand out is the toasted marshmallow backtaste that adds a vanilla-esque sweetness to the body and allows the cinnamon apparent in the recipe to jolt the roof of your mouth a little but not overwhelm the beer.
2) Dark O' The Moon Pumpkin Stout - Elysian Brewing Co.
This is as bold and spicy as anything you'll find out there. The difference is that the thick, almost sweet-bodied stout envelopes the beer and gives it a firm but soft cushion, allowing you to enjoy the base beer as well as the additives.
3) St. Ambroise Pumpkin - McAuslan Brewing Co.
The biggest surprise of last year remains the easiest-drinking yet highly enjoyable pumpkin beer out there, with just enough hints of pie mix to let you know it's something special but not enough to overpower you.
4) Hey! Pumpkin - Denver Beer Co.
The Denver brewery stepped up its game this year by ramping up the cinnamon and accompanying spices but not to lip-burning levels. This offers pumpkin enjoyment in medium-bodied form.
5) Pumpkin Ale - Upslope Brewing
Many consider this the gold standard of Colorado pumpkin beers, and the reason why is easy to taste - a complexity of both bitter and spicy additives, all swirling around and daring you to identify them.
6) Gordgeous - Hangar 24 Craft Brewery
OK, this is a bit of a tricky one, as the California brewery doesn't circulate to Colorado. But the star pumpkin beer of the Great American Beer Festival adds a creamy body to its heavy melange of tastes, allowing this to go down very easily. Now if only it could get out to the Centennial State as easily ...

Tuesday, October 21, 2014
After a couple of weeks of reflection, the theme statement from this year's Great American Beer Festival finally is coming into focus. It wasn't the year of any one style - like with imperial IPAs, bold sours or barrel-aged dark beers as in years past — but the year in which each of the 700 breweries there put forth something original, something bold that distinguished it from its neighbors and from the growing cacophony of beer makers nationwide.
This is wonderful for its variety of offerings— on Thursday night alone, I was able to taste a Bourbon Carrot Cake, a banana beer and a brew made with Szechuan popcorn. But it makes the job of finding a definitive beer of the GABF — or even choosing best beers in specific categories — hard to the point where such categorization is almost moot.
That said, here as always is one man's thoughts on the best of the very best that breweries had to offer at this year's gathering.
Best in Show: 2x4, Melvin Brewing
For once, even in a year of such diversity, this award wasn't hard, as a number of people seemed to come to the same conclusion. Rarely, if even, has a double IPA been so smooth and so aggressively hoppy at the same time. A spectacularly accessible palate of grassy hops rolled over the taste buds in a way that jolted you and pleased you. It showed why, even without winning a medal, this Wyoming brewery is becoming known as one of the national kings of hops.
Runner-up: Teche Hombres, Bayou Teche Brewing
Out of Louisiana came this Belgian-style wit brewed with agave nectar and aged in French white wine barrels with orange peel. Yes, it was as good as it sounds — and even more complex.
Best Sour Beer: Blue Sunday, New Holland Brewing
An anniversary blend of several previously made sour beers, this shouted a message of sharp, tart cherry and packed more a punch than any similar beers at the festival.
Best Hop Bomb: Notorious, Boneyard Beer
If 2x4 was the best hoppy beer of the show, this was the most mind-blowing: a triple IPA whose flavor seeped into every crevice of your tongue but that still was phenomenally balanced.
Best New Hop Taste: Hop Drip IPA, Magic Hat Brewing (pictured above)
Adding a local coffee to an already bold body created a contrasting and yet strangely complimentary blend of bitter flavors that resulted in a new style of complexity for the genre.
Best Use of Fruit: Serendipity, New Glarus Brewing
This slightly sour ale blending apples and cranberries with a smaller amount of Wisconsin brewery's traditional cherries during a cherry shortage was heavy with apple and an eye-opener.
Best of the Unusual Beers: Roxie's Golden Bananas, Saucony Creek Brewing (at top)
Fifteen pounds of bananas went into this Pennsylvania brewery's 15-barrel batch of beer, producing a pleasant and interesting beer whose most impressive trait is that it's not overpowering.
Best in Show from Colorado: Swing Se Pliser, Trinity Brewing
Colorado Springs' most innovative beer maker continues to break new ground, this time with a tart and hoppy barrel-aged sour IPA that requires you to think about what you're tasting.

Thursday, October 02, 2014
I'll be honest: I didn't have time to do my usual lengthy GABF preview, picking out 25 to 50 beers that you have to try. I was unprepared that the time I typically spend getting ready for the festival would be rededicated to feeding and caring our my 7-week-old son. I imagine the time crunch will be less next year, but I hope you'll agree that, as a new dad, I had to re-prioritize this once.
That said, I want to offer up two things in preparation for the greatest festival in the history of the planet to start tonight.
First, I want to refer anyone who is interested to a Facebook chat I just did on how to attack the festival. It mentions some strategies, some up-and-coming breweries and a few tips. You can find it right here.
Second, I want to give a shout-out to some of the best beers I've tried during Denver Beer Fest, the ever-burgeoning lineup of events leading up to the GABF. Some will be served at the GABF, and others may be just at the breweries, whether now or at a future time. Either way, these are some beers that you should track down if given the opportunity.
• Boneyard Notorious: Triple IPAs can be a tricky lot as they try to balance big flavor without too big a presence of alcohol. Oregon's Boneyard Beer may have walked that line better than just about any triple IPA maker in recent history. (At GABF)
• Oude Tart: When considering which sours should be on your must list the next few days, don't overlook this Flanders red ale aged 18 months in red-wine barrels. (At GABF)
• Eclipse Imperial Stout: At 17.3 percent ABV, this biggest-ever product from Jagged Mountain Craft Brewery is deceptive in how easily the big, dark body goes down. (At brewery)
• Fresh-hopped 1000 Barrels Imperial IPA: Strange Craft Beer may never make this hop bomb, complete with 60 pounds of Cascade, Nugget and CNZ hops again. But it really, really should. (At brewery … at least it was)

Restoration and rememberance
Vandalized monument to fallen officers restored
Despite the damage done by vandals to a monument honoring two slain police officers, members of the Nam Knights of America Motorcycle Club were able to make it seem like nothing happened. (BENJAMIN C. KLEIN)
"It's depressing to hear that it was tipped over, but the response to it is very good and greatly appreciated, not only by our family, but I suspect by people who go around that traffic circle every day," said Jeremy Charron's father Bob.
Along with fixing and resetting the broken monument, the NKA also cleaned up any litter around the site, mowed the lawn and trimmed the trees.
"With it being the anniversary of her husband's death she said she needed something to do, and that it would be therapeutic to help out. I said come on down and bring a rake and a smile," Dempsey said.
"I take her boys hunting; a bunch of us that were friends with Mike still look out for his kids," Dempsey said.
"Even politicians honor it by not planting any signs on the circle. The area all around is loaded election time. but not here," Dempsey said.
"They probably didn't even know what they were doing, the monument has no writing on it of any kind."
Some of the NKA members who helped out, like Justin Dirito, weren't even members of the White Mountain chapter, but still felt compelled to help out.
This is not the first time Dempsey and his motorcycle club have had to repair and remount the monument. In 2011, a motorist crashed into it after driving up the small hill in the middle of the traffic circle.

Where to find Great Works of Art, Florence
75 Reviews
75 Reviews
Favorite thing: To cross the river Arno there are nine bridges in Florence. The most popular one is the Ponte Veccio - inhabitable and with some expensive shops.
Favorite thing: At the centre of the very pretty fountain in porphyry is a winged putto in bronze, a copy of the original by Andrea del Verrocchio (1476) housed in the Palace Museum.
Favorite thing:
Galleria della Accademia.
Yes here is the authentic David, You czan not loose it, he is best that you imagine.
Favorite thing: This isn't anything important, I just walked by it while I was walking back from the river and though it looked cool.
Favorite thing: Cross the Arno and see the Plaza Pitti. Within, you will find the Boboli Gardens - a vast and impressive expanse of sculpture and (in best Monte Python voice) shrubbery.
Favorite thing: Wandering about the acreage of the Boboli Gardens, you will stumble upon a mixture of modern and classical sculpture.
Favorite thing: The baptistery door, it's not leaning, I was probably.......too many Chianti's glasses the night before??
Fondest memory: The palace architecture was built in 1299, changed many times inside, but keeps the outer look of 1400 until today..
Fondest memory: Santa Maria Novella church. You can see the Masaccio and Ghirlandaio works here, very beautiful frescoes.
Fondest memory: Seeing the David (this is the copy) after years of dreaming about it has to be my favourite memory of this wonderful city.
Favorite thing: You have to go around to the other side of the Cathedral to find the Museo dell' Opera del Duomo and more works of Michelangelo, Donatello and Della Robia (see travelogue)
Favorite thing:
My dream was to see one day all the sculptures that I have seen in History of Art classes.
Davi was in Florence. I could not miss!
Favorite thing:
Here you see the magnificient statue of David, made of course by Michelangelo himself.
This is located on L'Accademia...walking distance from the Duomo.
Favorite thing: These are the doors of the battistero, right next to the duomo. They're called the Golden Gate. Each square represents a story from the Bible.
Favorite thing: The beautiful Gardens of Boboli, behind the Pitti Palace, are good for a picnic and sunbathing, and the entrance is free.

One of the worst under eye concealers I've tried. It dries and cracks within minutes of application, even with a good moisturizer underneath. The tube packaging also makes it difficult to dispense the correct amount - you need the tiniest dot of product. I found that I was wasting most what I squeezed out every time I tried to use it. Will not be re-purchasing, will not even be finishing the barely-touched tube I have.
6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Love this! use it under my eyes and i use it on my lids as a shadow base. And for it being so small it lasts long! I would bu this again! =)
This is great for covering up blemishes, but the formula is too thick for me to wear under my eyes. I would buy this again- the price is quite reasonable given the quality of the product.
This is my favorite concealer.....EVER! Its easy to apply and doesn't seep in the lines. Blends well. Love it. The only thing that kinda isn't great is that it doesn't cover up the occasional breakout that I get so well, But it's great for eyes!
The best thing about this concealer is its packaging: totally sanitary and easy to use. I have mega dark undereye circles, and this stuff works better than anything I ever discovered at the drugstore. I'm looking for something a bit thicker, though, because this doesn't completely cover and I don't have time to apply sixteen layers. It's also drying, but moisturizer helps with that.
I used to like Clinique products a lot! But, lately they just seem to be doing absolutely nothing for me! I have found alternatives that are a thousand times better. So, I bought this concealer thinking hey, it diminishes puffiness and bags and covers darkness. Which is does not. It looks fake and cakey! It probably lasts like 2 hours, maybe less. It also makes my bags look bigger instead of reducing them! I most likely will not even use this up. I have also noticed that its starting to separate! I went to use some the other day and a bunch of oil squirted out, instead of concealer. Which I thought was totally gross. I have only had it for about 2 months. I will definitely not be buying this product again!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Not a bad product though as only 2 colours available here in Hong Kong and neither is perfect...I am still looking...
Strange thing why no reviews for CLINIQUE DERMA WHITE SPOT CONCENTRATE CONCEALER SPF 21? That is a better colour match for me but a little dry to use. Has anyone else tried this? I would love to know what you think!
BTW does anyone know what has happened to the STEPHANE MARAIS make up line? Their concealer worked quite well for me but that was years ago and I never see it anywhere. So still looking for HG!
I bought this while I worked for Clinique and I really liked how my undereyes looked at first. however I soon noticed that even if I put a little bit, it seeps into my line under my eyes. After a while, it seemed to look ashen which didn't help my dark circles. I don't think I will buy this again.
I have this in 08 for summer & 05 for 'normal' use.
I don't know what I was thinking when I bought a second one. It's not thick enough so when I apply it, you can still see through it & it looks like I'm really trying to cover my dark circles. Also, it makes my circles appear green-ish in a way? I don't know, I'm not a fan. Maybe I should try a cream-based concealer next time.
It started out a great concealer, was my favorite for a while. Then it all went downhill. Pros- great coverage, creamy, decent color match for fair asian skin, not too pricey. Cons - became dry, settled into fine lines, separated. It may be my skin and the weather because I bought it during spring and summer but now that it's fall and winter I hate how powdery dry it finishes. Then soon after I bought it, the pigment and the oil began separating. Gross getting a squirt of oil instead of concealer. Looking for a new concealer, again!

An Interview with Jamie Harper, Scrapbook.com Product Designer
Figure 1: Two sample Floorplans
With that brief introduction to Flooplans let's get one with interview:
Thanks for sharing your love of scrapbooking through Floorplans with us. I'll get right to my first question. What are Floorplans?
Jamie: Floorplans (also known as sketches and blueprints) are the beginning building blocks for layout construction. They can be made from your imagination, your previous layouts, from ads in magazines or on television or you can purchase them from companies who produce them like Scrapbook.com.
Jill: What is their purpose?
Jamie: Basically, they simplify scrapbooking. For the woman who is busy, they allow for much faster results when creating layouts. They're also great for the person who suffers from creativity block because they can pull out their Floorplans book and have instant access to layout ideas…the hard part (creating the arrangement of the layout) is done for them. If you begin with a Floorplan, you can pull a layout together in less than one hour, honestly. Put simply, you'll get the results you want in less time –making room for other important things in life.
Jill: Why did you start using them?
Jamie: Being a scrapbook instructor I needed to be organized and have my classes run smoothly. Floorplans helped me teach. When students created a layout from a Floorplan I was certain they would be able to take the Floorplan and completed layout home and use both as a springboard for other quick and easy layouts. The side benefit was that Floorplans helped me with my personal scrapbooking.
Jill: Do you always use a Floorplan?
Jamie: No, because I've been scrapbooking for so long. I often design layouts without them. Butl, the interesting thing is that a layout can be broken back down to reveal a Floorplan, which is what I always encourage my students to look for.
I like to work backwards, creating the layout and then making the Floorplan from the layout. This way I know it is my own work and I know the Floorplan will work for others because it has been tried and works for me.
Jill: Where do you get your ideas for Floorplans?
Jamie: They're all around in architecture, billboards, television, sketches used by interior designers, fine art, magazine ads and articles. I'll list some of the places where I find my ideas:
- Architecture: In the shapes of buildings or windows; I've also found them in skylines
- Billboards: I look at the layout of the billboard and how the shapes within it are positioned.
- Television: I'm a keen observer of the opening introductions to shows. A great example is "Everwood" on The WB Network Monday evenings. It is the best example of a Floorplan I've found on television which I created one of my favorite layouts from. [See Figure 2]
- Sketches used by interior designers: Interior designers sketch out floor plans all the time. Some of the design segments in Better Homes & Gardens show the floor plans used to create rooms. Another place to look is in the brochures given out at model homes.
- Art: Art is a great place to look. Artwork is already based on squares, rectangles and other geometric shapes. The pieces are just waiting for someone with "fresh eyes" to study them and pull out the ideas for scrapbook pages.
- Magazine Ads and Articles: Two of my favorite sources to pull ideas from are Oprah's "O" magazine and "Real Simple" magazine. Both have clean, flowing lines to their style and are easy to adapt into layouts. Look through magazines until you see something that "grabs" you…then figure out what it is that you love, whether it's the actual layout, the colors, or just everything! In Figure 4 you'll see a Floorplan drawn from a magainze layout and then in Figure 5 you'll see the scrapbook layout inspired and created from it.

Figure 5: Layout from floorplan
Jill: Do Scrapbookers get more layouts completed when they use Floorplans?
Jamie: Absolutely. First, they can use a Floorplan more than once. You can mirror the image or combine two different Floorplans for a two-page spread. You can move the elements within the Floorplan, and the image can be rotated or flipped.
Second, you do not have to spend so much time looking at your photos wondering what to do! We all do this from time to time (or some of us do it all the time) but by using Floorplans the hard brainwork is taken out of the equation. And we all like to save time!
Jill: Where can scrapbookers find the Floorplans you've created?
Jamie: They can find 52 of them in the Floorplans 1 book and a few others with layout samples and exceptional step-by-step instructions for how to complete each layout in the Construct-A-Page Section of the Scrapbook.com Superstore. Go check it out.
Below are some sample layouts created from Floorplans using various techniques and supplies. You can get all of the Floorplans for these sample layouts and more in the Floorplans book:
Application #1: Layout made from an E-Cut and a Floorplan
You can make a layout in a matter of minutes by using a Scrapbook.com E-cut and a Floorplan. They are both such wonderful resources. (Products used: Miracles 2 E-Cut and Bazzill Basics Cardstock.)
Layout by Jamie Harper
Application #2: Layout made using only cardstock and a Floorplan
Sometimes all that is needed for the photos to work well on a layout is color…no stickers, die cuts or "frou-frou". When a layout is clean and simple (using just cardstock) the photos can stand-alone and the focus is as it should be. (Products used: Bazzill Basics Cardstock.)
Layout by Jamie Harper
Application #3: Layout made with preprinted packs and kits and a Floorplan
When I look at preprinted materials to purchase I always ask myself, "How many layouts can I use this on?" I, like you, want to get the most for my money. I love SEI papers. They have beautiful color combinations. This particular pack is my favorite. I can create dozens of layouts from one pack alone. It's very cost effective and time wise because you don't have to spend time mixing and matching paper and elements from many sources. (Products used: SEI Be Bop Paper Collection and Be Bop Tags.)
Layout by Jamie Harper
Application #4: Layout made using patterned paper and a Floorplan
Patterned paper can be a great addition to a layout. My favorite way to use it is to layer it (see Paper Layering Article/Interview). A small amount can go a long way. (Products used: SEI Seasoned Paper Collection and Seasoned Tags.)
Layout by Jamie Harper
Application #5: Layout created using topography (words) and a Floorplan
Using topography is my most favorite way to scrapbook. If you take a close look at most of my layouts you see that I use the Making Memories Express It word stamps at least 90% of the time. I love the look of graphic design, so maybe that's why I love incorporating words into my layouts. Or maybe it's because I love journaling and I can't stop the words from continuing onto my layout and photos. Whatever the reason, I love to include them in my layouts to enhance the feelings I want the photographs to portray. (Products used: Making Memories Rub-ons & Express It! Magnetic Stamps.)

Jill: Thanks for your time and expertise, Jamie. It's apparent that you know the benefits of Floorplans for yourself and others. Do you have any other tips?
Jamie: Yes, one last thing. Floorplans take scrapbooking to its simplest form and free up your creativity so you'll have more time and creative energy to devote to your journaling, photography, color choice and best of all, your family.

With Colin Divall - Professor of Railway Studies and Head of the Institute Of Railway Studies And Transport History at York University and the National Railway Museum.
The watershed year for Britain's railways came in 1963 with the appointment of Dr. Richard Beeching to the British Railways Board and the publication of his controversial 'Beeching Plan'; its impact and his legacy on the railways is investigated in detail here. Beeching famously brought about widespread railway line closures and the end of steam locomotion but was also responsible for pioneering and revenue-generating initiatives like the formation of the Inter-City network, West Coast Mainline Electrification, 'Merry-Go-Round' coal trains and the 'Freightliner' system.
The story of this controversial period is told in defi nitive detail with archive film, newsreels and testimony and interviews with both railwaymen and historians. Locomotives featured include Gresley 'A4' Pacifi cs, 4472 Flying Scotsman, Deltics, Class 47 and 50 Diesel - Electrics, E3001 - Electric Loco, the HS4000 Kestrel experimental loco, Class 87 electrics, APT, HST and the Railbus.

Post-War, the 'Big Four' Railway companies struggled with a backlog of maintenance of permanent way, engines and rolling stock borne of the under-investment and acute demands made on them during the Second World War. Nationalisation as 'British Railways' came in 1948 and brought with it steam locomotive standardisation and the beginnings of the wholesale transition to diesel and electric traction as outlined in the 1955 Modernisation Plan. The story of this time of intense and controversial change is told in definitive detail with archive fi lm, period newsreels and testimony and interviews with both railwaymen and railway historians.
Among the locomotives featured are the A4 Pacifi c Class, the First diesel-electric loco no. 10000, the BR standard Britannia class, 9F class 'Evening Star', the Deltic prototype, the Peak D1, D.M.U's, Warships, Westerns, the Blue Pullman and the Glasgow Blue Electrics.

Independent Software Vendor Gradatim Migrates To Windows Azure, Helping Reduce Deployment Time By 84 Percent While Saving $2 Million
NEW DELHI, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Independent software vendor Gradatim, a specialist in creating technology solutions for businesses that offer microfinance products and services, migrated to the Windows Azure cloud platform to simplify its service configuration and gain global scalability, achieving an 84 percent decrease in project deployment time and saving an estimated $2 million (U.S.).
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO)
In 2011, Gradatim evaluated a number of shared services platforms, including IBM SmartCloud, and selected Windows Azure, the Microsoft cloud services development, hosting and management environment.
"We wanted a platform-as-a-service solution, not just cloud infrastructure," said CV Prakash, founder and CEO of Gradatim. "We concluded that Windows Azure offered the best long-term value and the most reliable cloud platform for transforming our business.""Microfinance" describes the market for financial instruments such as loans and insurance policies, which involve small principal and transaction amounts. Service providers must be agile enough to quickly develop low-cost, custom products that can be accessed anywhere, including on mobile devices. To capitalize on the growing demand for its insurance policy and loan management applications, Gradatim chose to migrate its solutions to Windows Azure to achieve simplicity and global scalability. By eliminating the need to set up datacenters and invest in server hardware to deliver its solutions, Gradatim substantially reduced its operating expenses. The company estimates that the cost savings from adopting Windows Azure will total about $2 million (U.S.) over the next 18 months. The company previously needed about three months to fully deploy its solutions to customers. The same work can now be done in two weeks, which represents an 84 percent increase in efficiency. "Faster deployments mean that we start generating revenue from each project faster, so we have more flexibility in the investment decisions that we make to grow our business," Prakash said. The on-demand resource availability and scalability offered by Azure also helps the company spend less time planning customer deployments.

Great news! This game is really awesome and I enjoy the multiplayer a lot.
But those lags are really annoying with 300 pop, even with a high end pc :(
There are also a few balance issues like those walls with 150000hp.
But the graphics and the gameplay so far are really good and the individual music is impressive!
When will Alpha 16 be released for Arch Linux?
Keep up the good work :)

Lost – Pilot dir. by J.J. Abrams
I've heard lots of good rumours about this programme, but haven't actually read anything about it, didn't want to get spoiled if I decided to watch it.
RTE showed the pilot (2 episodes) back to back last Monday, and there wasn't much else on so I figured I may as well watch it. So far it is okay, I'm not sure why there has been so much raving about how great it is. Then again, I can't really judge after only one episode.

Ukraine Forces Recapturing Donetsk from pro-Russian Rebels
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Athena Yenko | August 12, 2014 9:45 AM EST
The recapture of Donetsk from the pro-Russian separatists is nearing as the Ukrainian government forces are reportedly at their final stage of counter-attack against the separatists.
Senior Ukrainian separatist leader Aleksander Borodai (C) speaks during a handover of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17's black boxes to Colonel Mohamed Sakri (R) of the Malaysian National Security Council, in Donetsk July 22, 2014. The remains of some of the 298 victims of the Malaysia Airlines plane downed over Ukraine were making their way to the Netherlands on Tuesday as Borodai handed over the plane's black boxes to Malaysian experts.
A military spokesman revealed that the Ukrainian forces are already at their final stage of taking Donetsk back from the pro-Russian separatists. He said that the forces had already advanced significantly in breaking away the separatists. He said that the Kiev's forces had now taken Donetsk away from other regions held by the rebels.
"The forces of the 'anti-terrorist operation' are preparing for the final stage of liberating Donetsk. Our forces have completely cut Donetsk off from Luhansk. We are working for liberating both towns but it's better to liberate Donetsk first - it is more important," spokesman for Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council , Andriy Lysenko, told Reuters.
On Sunday, the Ukrainian forces had advanced significantly, taking a hard stance that they will only stop their attacks if the separatists surrender.
On Saturday, newly-elected rebel leader Aleksandr Zakharchenko, had reportedly called for cease-fire without any preconditions. By Sunday, the group's spokeswoman Elena Nikitina repeated their call for ceasefire that is after the Ukrainian forces agreed to leave the region.
However, Lysenko said that the only way that the rebels in Donetsk could avert the military's advance is for the rebels to "lay down their arms and give up."
The significant gains achieved by the Ukraine forces had caused "panic and chaos in the ranks of the rebels" and had them thinking of "deserting their posts en masse," Lysenko said.
Russia supported Zakharchenko's call for ceasefire. However, Kiev was wary that the ceasefire could allow Russia to render humanitarian aid and use it as an excuse to bring in Russian soldiers in Ukraine. The same doubt repeatedly echoed by the United States.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said that Russia could only conduct humanitarian mission if it is to be conducted without military assistance and will pass border checkpoints under the Ukrainian control.
US President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel both think that any form of intervention done by Russia will be unacceptable and would constitute violation of international law.
