Mas Amedda
Mas Amedda was the Vice Chair of the Galactic Senate during Chancellor Valorum's term, a position he continued to hold as Chancellor Palpatine transformed the Republic into the Galactic Empire. Amedda's booming voice often called for order when the partisan nature of the Republic's government degenerated into pointless bickering. In an alien gesture of authority, he would often punctuate such calls with a flicker of his long, forked tongue.

Emperor Palpatine / Darth Sidious
Scheming, powerful, and evil to the core, Darth Sidious restored the Sith and destroyed the Jedi Order. Living a double life, Sidious was in fact Palpatine, a Naboo Senator and phantom menace. He slowly manipulated the political system of the Galactic Republic until he was named Supreme Chancellor -- and eventually Emperor -- ruling the galaxy through fear and tyranny.
Galactic Senate
At the height of its rule, the Galactic Republic was governed by a body of Senators representing the many worlds of the galaxy. Within the cavernous Senate rotunda, hundreds of politicians would fill the viewing platforms that lined the curved walls. When a Senator wished to speak, the platform would detach and float to the center of the auditorium for all to see.
Trade Federation
One of the wealthiest corporate organizations in the galaxy, the Trade Federation controlled most of the interstellar shipping passing through the Rim territories. The Trade Federation was headed by Viceroy Nute Gunray, and even had its own representative in the Republic Senate to lobby for even greater power. On the orders of Darth Sidious, the Trade Federation sent its battle droids to invade Naboo to create a government crisis. During the Clone Wars, the Trade Federation secretly signed on as a member of Count Dooku's Separatist organization, though representatives in the Senate tried to deny this.
Supreme Chancellor Valorum
A well-meaning civil servant whose chancellorship was hampered by corruption in the Senate and bureaucratic snarls, Valorum secretly turned to the Jedi Knights for help breaking the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo. But Valorum was betrayed by Naboo's Senator Palpatine, who maneuvered Queen Amidala into asking the Senate for a no-confidence vote in the Supreme Chancellor's leadership. A stunned Valorum was removed from office in favor of Palpatine.

Scott Kelly of Neurosis on how he and the band treat every show like it's the last one they'll play
Your two most recent albums have a very organic, almost totemic, aesthetic to the album art that hearkens back to Souls at Zero. Why do you feel that aesthetic suits the music you've put out on Given to the Rising and Honor Found in Decay?
I don't know, man. We just kind of let it flow. We don't really trip on it too much. We let the songs take shape on their own. We're definitely not trying to mold them as much as just kind of being the conduit for the music to flow. They are just kind of are what they are. We've been recording with the same guy for a number of years: Steve Albini. The last five albums have been with him. He has a very organic approach to things. It's old school recording on to two-inch tapes and an analog approach that we think sounds better. Beyond that, there's just a comfort level that we have working with him that goes a long way.
You first worked with him on Times of Grace. How did you come to work with him?
We just asked him. We called him, and he asked, "When do you want to record?" He's booked, but all you've got to do is call him, and if he's got time that fits into your schedule, he'll record you. He doesn't give a shit. He'll record anybody. He treats everybody the same. If you go into his studio prepared, you'll come out with a recording of exactly what your band sounds like. If you're not, then you'll come out with a recording of your band exactly what it sounds like.
He's supposed to be pretty hands off in terms of production.
Oh, completely. He just does his job and stays out of the way. That's perfectly great with us because we don't need any other input than the five of us, and that's plenty of input. Believe me, between the five of us, there are enough ideas and strong opinions to go around on damn near anything you can think of, creative or otherwise.
The music you've made with Neurosis, both sonically and thematically, is so rich and often dense. Do you feel that sort of thing emerged at some point in the band's history? Was that a quality that was there at the beginning?
It was there; we just didn't know how to pull it out. We felt it, and we knew it was there, and we knew where we were going, but we didn't know how to do it. We were too rudimentary in our skills, but our experience lead us to our sound, and we were able to find it relatively quickly. I think it took us about six years to get to a foundation of where we started to build on the sound that we've come to now. Even the original stuff that we wrote in '85 and '86 -- I can still draw lines between those songs and songs on Honor Found in Decay. I can see the lineage of the sounds. It's all there. But it did take us some time to figure out how to do what we do.
Was there a particular album where you felt that your thinking had emerged the way that you wanted it to?
No. I still don't feel like we have, actually.
You, Dave Edwardson and Jason Roeder were in a hardcore band called Violent Coercion at some point?
Yeah. That was the band we were in before Neurosis.
How did you get involved in that world growing up?
I met a kid in junior high who started playing me Black Flag and the Plasmatics and Stiff Little Fingers and the Ramones. I instantly knew that that was what I had been waiting for my whole life. I was always really into music, and even when I was little, I was really into hard rock: Kiss, Nugent, Queen and Deep Purple and all that. I always wished for something that was a little harder and faster, and I was never really a fan of guitar [solos].
All of a sudden I found this music that was exactly what I heard in my mind. It was kind of one of those moments in your life when you become obsessed with it from that moment forward. I never looked back. I'm definitely still there. Thirty-two years later, I'm still grinding to the same stuff and still listening to a lot of the same stuff that I listened to on that day.
Did you grow up in the Bay Area?
No, that was in San Diego. I grew up all over the state and moved a lot when I was a kid. I moved to the Bay Area in '84, and that's when I met Dave and Jason and joined that band. I was in that band for about a year -- it had existed before I got there. After a year, Dave and Jason and I decided to break off from that band and do something totally different because we were pretty bored with what we were doing.

Robert Griffiths
Otto Stern University Professor of Physics, Physics
Ph.D., Stanford UniversityResearch
Quantum mechanics is hard to understand not only because it involves unfamiliar mathematics, but also because the usual discussion in textbooks about how to relate the mathematics to the real world is incomplete. Supplying the missing link(s) and working out a fully consistent form of quantum theory is the goal of a research program which I initiated in 1984, and which, with major contributions by Roland Omnes, Murray Gell-Mann, and James Hartle, has resulted in what is now called the consistent (or decoherent) history approach to quantum theory. So far as is known at present, this approach is powerful enough to resolve the various quantum paradoxes (Schrodinger's cat, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen, etc.) without any mysterious action-at-a-distance, and it makes good sense out of quantum measurements. I have written a book Consistent Quantum Theory (Cambridge University Press) which explains the essentials of this approach.
At present my research program is focused on applying consistent history methods and ideas to quantum information theory and quantum computation. Using the principle that quantum measurements, when properly interpreted, reveal a property of the measured system before the measurement took place, C.-S. Niu and I showed that one could greatly simplify the final step in Shor's algorithm for factoring long numbers. We made similar applications to eavesdropping in quantum cryptography. Understanding the significance of density matrices and entangled quantum states, and investigating the noise produced by quantum copying processes, are among the projects currently underway in my research group. We are also looking for (special) relativistic counterparts of some aspects of the consistent history interpretation which at present are best understood for nonrelativistic systems. For further information about my research group see its web page.
My other interests include the problem of irreversibility in statistical mechanics, and various issues, such as determinism and free will, at the interface between science and Christian theology.

I know this is a major job in changing this fluid. What if the fuel and oil was drained and the mower was turned upside down - is this an acceptible alternative for this fluid change? Would you be able to drain most of it out this way without taking the mower apart. Having this transmission go bad at some point is scarey. |
Follow-Up Postings:
nice machine, push mower with a hydro-WOW Nice machine. MY honda simply has a belt for the drive. I doubt it will hurt if to turn it over and drain it. Post some pics if you can. Good Luck! |
Hey mvron - I just bought a new HRC216 in June. When I read your question, I got out my owners manual, but I see no mention of trans fluid change. Do you have a service book? How many hours do you have on it? Since you have one of these mowers,I have to bring something up. First, how old is your mower, and are you happy with the way it cuts? Mine has the Micro-cut blade system, which yours may or may not have. Since I got it, I have had random single blades of grass left standing through out the yard. I started a post on it here, and heard back from a couple others with the same issue. Honda claims they haven't had any complaints about it, yet 1 other dealer here in Florida, plus a couple folks on this forum have. I must admit that it does a better job with grass that is shorter (cut regularly), but with the rain we've had over the summer, the grass has gone a week at a time, and grown 7-8". Have you had any experience with this issue? |
I got the mower from a local Honda shop - it was a trade-in on a new one from a lawn service that pretty much trashed it. The dealer said it was sound mechanically which proved to be true. It looked awful so I painted both the engine and the deck - looks like new. It has only a single cutting blade and cuts great. There has been a lot of discussion on the trans fluid. Some say every year of severe service - every three years for residential service - and yes it dosen't mention it in the manuals. Having a trans one go bad is scarey. |
That's good to know. I have another Honda I bought new in 1997. It has the hydro with the shaft drive too. My inlaws are using it now, and I've never changed the fluid in it, nor had any problems with it. I think with that one, "as long as it works, I'm not going to fix it." I will check with my dealer about the new one though. In regards to my cutting issue, I think the problem with uncut grass is all about the blade design. Other than the lift "wings" on the outer ends of your blade, does it have a lot of bends/twists in it? The blade on my older one is pretty much flat except for the lift bends on the ends. The new one is bent down some on each side in order to make the bottom of the blade even with the bottom of the deck. Does yours have a domed steel deck? Honda offered, and sent a spacer to replace the upper blade, so just the hi-lift blade is used. I tried it, but the results were pretty much the same. The Honda rep told me that some commercial guys were complaining that the blades were clogging, and that's why they came up with the spacer. Good luck with yours, and happy mowing. Have you tried the fluid change yet? If so, did you turn it upside down, as you originally proposed, or is there another trick to it? |
The key will be keeping debris out of the fill hole. |
- Posted by stinkytiger z5 - z6 (My Page) on Wed, Oct 7, 09 at 7:18
Hi, My HRC216 is four years old now. I have never changed the transmission fluid in the shaft drive. I think you probablly never need to change it very often. If you look at Honda cars, the transmission fluid needs to be change I think at about the 100,000 mile level. That is alot of mowing.... Best, Mike. |
Unless it became contaminated with water or dirt why change the fluid? |
Friction creates deposits, deposits increase friction. Take some sand a rub it between your hands. That's your Honda transmission after 100,000 miles. Oil changes are the CHEAPEST and BEST preventative maintenance you can do to any machine that takes oil. Whether its a transmission or an engine. |
Nice tight completely circular argument that has me completely puzzled. Friction creates deposits in a Honda mower transmission after 100,000 miles??? I have yet to see a mower run for 100,000 miles. I don't buy that deposits of any consequence are created in a sealed hydrostatic system. Deposits are created in engine oil as a consequence of turning gasoline from one form to another. Maybe you are confusing the two. |
Ya gotta read the whole thread man, not just the last post. Takes the fun out of it. |
I went to the Honda dealer and bought some Hydrostatic fluid. I then sucked some fluid out of the transmission filler hole to see what it looked like. It was Coal black. The new fluid is perfectly clear. Maybe that's a clue. |
Not surprising given that "it was a trade-in on a new one from a lawn service that pretty much trashed it." Given that the rest if the mnower is trashed, who knows how they did to contaminate that fluid. |
A lot of times when fluid like that turns dark or black in your case, it indicates that it may have overheated, and gotten burned. Not sure how that would happen though, unless like a car, something is slipping inside. Let us know what you find out. |
- Posted by rosemallow z7 Md (My Page) on Fri, Nov 6, 09 at 21:30
I looked at my HRX 217 manual and I did not see anything about changing the oil as a PM. It did show how to fill a new transmission. It looked the bottom cover came off and it got filled up with the complete unit upside down. |
I believe the manual says to check the fluid every 300 hours and change every 1000 hours. This info is in the maintenance table towards the end of the manual. Does anyone have an exploded view of the transmission? I just inherited a HRC from my brother-in-law and it has a slow leak. Thanks. |

An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything. "An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything"[1] is a physics preprint proposing a basis for a unified field theory, very often referred to as "E8 Theory,"[2] which attempts to describe all known fundamental interactions in physics and to stand as a possible theory of everything.
The paper was posted to the physics arXiv by Antony Garrett Lisi on November 6, 2007, and was not submitted to a peer-reviewed scientific journal.[3] The title is a pun on the algebra used, the Lie algebra of the largest "simple", "exceptional" Lie group, E8.

Hardly your typical houseboat, it is a virtual cruise ship for the rich and famous who can afford to buy it when it is fully planned and built. The anthropomorphism of this luxury floating home is of course intentional – the front deck like the gaping mouth of a gigantic sea creature and the sleek curves mimicking streamlined oceanic animals. Complete with a swimming pool on top and a futuristic interior design this is far more like a permanent mobile home than a cruising yacht. The smaller and simpler (both adjectives applied relative to its bigger brother of course) version of this spectacular design is the Infinitas, with a more sleek and streamlined profile and a semi-enclosed on-board swimming pool in the center but underneath the shell.

Reviewed All-American Down-Home Patriotic Meatloaf Sandwich
Feb 19, 2012 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"Was so excited to try this recipe today when I saw the show and it did not disappoint. Could not find veal so we used extra pork instead. The glaze was amazing, I will never go back to regular ketchup on meatloaf, I think the glaze would make a boot taste delicious! The meatloaf was very moist, I personally prefer a drier meatloaf so next time..."

I picked up a blueberry plant and two white seedless grapes. Do I have to wait til the chance of frost is over before I plant them? The weather has been mostly mild, but we have dipped down in temps a few times. Also, the blueberry plant doesn't say anything about pollinating or self-pollinating? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm not too sure about when to plant them. I think I put mine in April of 2007 and we were still in danger of frost. As for the blueberry it is a good idea to have at least 2 plants and each being a different variety that blooms about the same time. The cross pollination has been found to increase production. I am not sure if they are self pollinating or not. |
The blueberry will be happiest if it goes into the ground sooner, rather than later. Is it still dormant, or has it sprouted green leaves and started to flower? It's best if the blueberry shrub is dormant when planted. Blueberry shrubs are native plants, and they have natural resistance to frost. There are some varieties sold for planting in the south, that are less tolerant of frost, so you have to specify the variety. |

I just picked up another blueberry plant. The package just said to mulch to protect it from frost. Went out and bought some mulch. How far apart should I plant them? They are both Blue Ray. They are both dormant, one has a tiny leaf. |
It depends on how big you intend to let them get. Blueberries can turn into small trees if you let them. |
Commercial blueberry growers typically space the shrubs at 8 feet. Our blueberry shrubs do fine 4 feet apart, and 3 feet is OK. What happens when they are closer together is that they get maybe 4 or 5 feet tall, and no higher. But they are still green and healthy, and they still make flowers and fruit. For maximum fruit per shrub, 8 foot spacing is best. |

This time, we're getting a break from Spring weather. The front that literally blew through Southeast Texas today allows a cold air mass to settle in. It means several mornings in the 30s and we may not see 70° weather until Thursday or Friday. We may even see some records fall.
The College Station record for tonight is 33° (1955), Bush's record is 36° (2006), Hobby is 37° (2006). The forecasts for those locations are 32°, 35° and 36°, respectively.
It will be cold as well Tuesday morning and challenge these records as well: Bush 30° (1955), College Station 33° (1955) and Hobby 31° (1955).
Or drought is deepening too. Underwhelming rainfall this weekend didn't help either. For the year, we're down 4.15". Compare that to last year, when we had a 17" surplus.
Next chance for rain isn't likely until next weekend.
TONIGHT: Clear and chilly with a light north breeze. By morning, temperatures slip into the low to mid 30s from Houston northward, mid 40s along the coast.
MONDAY: Sunny and unusually cool with much less wind. Highs barely above 60°.
TUESDAY: Chilly morning followed by a milder afternoon. Mostly sunny skies. Highs in the mid 60s.

Soggy Weekend?
We're headed into the first full weekend of Spring on a cloudy, balmy note. An approaching cool front will spark showers but does it mean a complete weekend washout? How about a 50/50 weekend? Looks like the latter will be case with Saturday possibly being quite stormy. A computer model I trust shows clouds and rain showing up Saturday morning. There could be a few isolated severe storms too, especially by afternoon, so be weather aware. The front moves through early Sunday and leaves behind a refreshing change. Cool and dry northwest winds make for a nicer day to head out to the Bayou City Arts Festival, get in the garden or whatever gets you going. Enjoy the weekend! Next week, it won't feel much like Spring with crisp mornings and cool afternoons. We might not get above 70° until week's end!
Norman Number for Saturday is a 7.
TONIGHT: Cloudy, breezy and balmy with occasional periods of light rain. Lows in the mid to upper 60s with steady southeast winds 5-10 mph.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy with periods of rain early. Stronger showers and thunderstorms likely during the late afternoon and evening. Highs in the low 80s.
SUNDAY: Early clouds exit quickly leading to abundant sunshine. Much cooler and drier with highs in the low 60s. Gusty northwest winds 15-20 mph. Good for kite flying, not so much for those blessed with hair.

Stormy Night For Some
By Gene Norman
Follow @genenormanwx on twitter
Visit: genenormanweather.com
Several counties, indicated in blue above could see the sky crackle tonight as a line of storms developing in the Hill Country comes rolling this way. Right now, the closest counties to Houston in the watch are Brazos (College Station), Washington, Austin and Colorado. Can't rule out a few storms making their way into the Houston area too. The biggest threat this evening is large hail and damaging wind gusts. The storms are the result of an upper-air disturbance lifting a warm, unstable air mass over Central and Southeast Texas. The current watch goes through midnight, but it is possible that the watch may be extended to include more of the Houston metro area if the storms hold together.
Once the rain moves out overnight, we're in for a few nice days before the next change. By the end of the week, cloudy skies return along with muggy air and a chance for showers through the weekend.
TONIGHT: Showers and thunderstorms, some strong move across during the evening and overnight hours. Temperatures fall through the mid to upper 50s after the rain moves through. Breezy east and northeast winds by morning.
WEDNESDAY: Early morning low clouds quickly lift revealing a mostly sunny day with a light and dry northeast wind. Highs in the mid 70s.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny and cool early on, becoming cloudy, breezy and muggier by afternoon. Morning lows in the mid to upper 40s, highs in the mid 70s. Southerly winds 15-20 mph.

Spring is just two days away but instead of winter, it's felt like summer today. Hobby and College Station hit 88°, setting new records for this date. Bush tied the 1907 record of 89°. A surge of warm air ahead of an approaching cold front set the stage for today's unusual warmth. The front will be short-lived however, so don't expect a big temperature drop Tuesday. A fast-moving disturbance racing out of the Hill Country is set to bring some brief showers here late Tuesday into early Wednesday. The front slides back northward as a warm front bringing cloudy skies with occasional periods of light rain as Spring begins Wednesday.
TONIGHT: Fair early with partly to mostly cloudy skies by developing after midnight. Lows in the mid 50s in Houston, low 50s to the north and low 60s along the coast.
TUESDAY: Early morning low clouds lift and skies become partly cloudy by afternoon. Warm, but not record heat. Spotty showers developing by early evening. Highs in the upper 70s. Southeast winds 5-10 mph.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy with periods of light rain early, then skies become mostly to partly cloudy. Highs in the mid 70s, northeast winds 5-10 mph.

More Of The Same
By Gene Norman

Are you ready for more days like this? That sun-drenched shot comes from the University of Houston campus looking toward the heart of the Bayou City. Get used to more of the same because there's very little change expected in this wonderful weather pattern which rounds out Spring Break week. About the only thing that might be a little different by the time we get to Friday is there may be a few fair weather clouds. That will be primarily due to an increase in low-level moisture and humidity as southeast winds return. However, there's no sign of rain anywhere until possibly Monday or Tuesday of next week.
As mentioned yesterday, pollen continues to be an issue for allergy sufferers - the only blemish in our great weather. Check the latest pollen count here.
TONIGHT: Fair and mild, light winds. Lows in the mid 40 to upper 40s in Houston, low 40s for far north neighborhoods and mid 50s along the coast.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny, continued mild. Highs in the mid 70s with light southeast winds 5-10 mph.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny with occasional fair weather clouds. Highs in the mid 70s, southeast winds 5-10 mph.

Spring Break!
By Gene Norman
Follow @genenormanwx on twitter
Visit: genenormanweather.com
Here's a gorgeous shot overlooking Galveston Island's Moody Gardens. The weather just couldn't be better for everyone out and about enjoying Spring Break. It doesn't look like there will be any change on the Island either for the next few days. Expect morning lows in the mid 50s and afternoon highs close to or slightly higher than 70°. Back in Houston, the weather is perfect for all the folks enjoying the rodeo. Again, no change is expected, with the exception that the mornings won't be quite as chilly as they were today. I hope you get a chance to enjoy this great weather.
The only problem is a continued high tree pollen count. Milder weather a few weeks ago, set the pollen off and periodic gusty wind episodes are bringing the pollen from North Texas into our neck of the woods. Check the latest pollen count here.
TONIGHT: Clear and mild, light winds. Lows in the mid 40s in Houston, upper 30s for far north neighborhoods and mid 50s along the coast.
WEDNESDAY: Sunny, mild and continued dry. Highs in the low 70s with light north and northeast winds 5-10 mph.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny and continued mild. Just a touch more humid. Highs in the mid 70s, southeast winds 5-10 mph.

Chilly Night
Are you enjoying the extra daylight? You probably would more if it was a hair warmer and no doubt less windy. Not the best day at the beach, but that will change over the next few days. The high pressure cell that brought in today's cool and breezy weather will gradually slide to our east the next few days. Tonight will be the coldest of the week and by Wednesday with the return of southeast winds, it will feel much nicer. Only problem - pollen count still quite high with ash, pine, oak and birch the main culprits. Low tonight: 37°, High Tuesday: 70°, so with plenty of sunshine, I'll peg the Norman Number at 9 (I deduct one for the chilly start).

"Life carries my love into the ocean that swallows everything good".
I stepped outside into the world again for the first time in days.
I was disappointed to find out that Mieka the cat still hadn't been found.
Other than that it looks like the world did fine without me.
We got our first snow on the mountains today, and the temperature's gone down a few degrees.
I'm already looking forward to the weekend and I've only been back a day.

Santa Teresa
Milarepa Hotel
Cobano, Puntarenas
Santa Teresa, Costa Rica
With just four bungalows on the premises, a night at Milarepa Hotel, on the southern coast of the Nicoya Peninsula, offers all focused attention to all guests. Each room is equipped with teak furniture and antique four-poster beds with mosquito netting, imported from Indonesia. Surrounding the resort are miles of deserted pale-gold beaches, natural tide pools for swimming, and sub-tropical jungle to explore, including Cabo Blanco National Park, just 3 kilometers away. For meals, on-site, open-air Soma restaurant serves a blend of southern French and Costa Rican cuisine.
Room to Book:
The only difference among the four rooms is proximity to the beach, with the more expensive ones being closer to the ocean, so book accordingly.
Insider Tip:
Before you jump into the ocean, check first with the hotel staff. The surf can get rough at times and the pool might be safer.

We have been using our Fivestar ranges for a month now and love them. They are fabulously powerful, easy to clean and look (imho) good.
Just called customer service to get help figuring out the self cleaning oven. Got put through to a real person right away. The man was spoke in a soft southern drawl and really gave me a lot of time. I told him how I love my ranges and he excitedly began talking about how it is a company owned business that has been around since the 30's. It was a very sweet over the phone service call. Just want to say that I am so happy with my ranges and want to put a positive review of Fivestar out there into the internet ether. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Those ranges look great! Can you please tell more, like how you decided on Five Star and why two 30 inch instead of one 60? Are yours the closed burner, and how did you decide which style burner to get? |
- Posted by flwrs_n_co (My Page) on Fri, Jul 16, 10 at 13:49
What a great way to creatively and economically get TONS of cooking power! What kind of ovens do you have? You mention self cleaning, but gas/electric and convection? I'm trying to figure out what cooking appliance(s) to get and am completely confused right now--can't even decide between range & cooktop! LOL! Thought I might do induction but am having second (and third) thoughts and may switch back to gas as I originally intended (currently have 30" ceramic top range). I've been told that on this forum that at least some people don't pull their ranges out to clean, may I ask if you can pull yours out (too heavy to move)? TIA for all information! |
Oops! Meant *family* owned business. Sayde--I started out the range hunt looking for a good deal on a 60". Mainly looking at Viking, Wolf and Thermador. i was calling shops in Orlando and Jacksonville (about 2 hours from me) to see if anyone had a 60" they were looking to move. No chance. Time and time again it was suggested that I get two 30" once the sales people heard my budget. One sales person even said to me--"Oh, with a budget like that, someone will probably recommend you get a Fivestar. I wouldn't." So i became curious, yet hesitant about Fivestar. Turns out that shop didn't sell Fivestar, so I wasn't sure how to take that salesman's comment. But I did start looking online about info on Fivestar. Lots of negative comments, but none of them from an actual Fivestar owner. A lot of people didn't like how they looked or the way the knobs felt (I don't know what is wrong with the knobs). I read one review of Fivestar by someone on Chowhound saying that it had no digital parts so any appliance repair person could fix it. Wow! Our Kenmore Elite range just blew up, so I found that really appealing. Then I saw the BTU's--all 21,000! Wow. I didn't see such high BTU's standard on any other range. So, in short, two 30"s because cheaper than a 60"...although, with Fivestar, not that much cheaper. All sealed burners. The unsealed have a lower BTU output (I think 14,000) and i didn't have the mental energy to research to see if there was some reason the lower BTU would be counteracted by the open burner and thus all cooking heat would be equal in the end. I just went with the bigger number. Flwrs--the ovens are electric convection. At first I was like *whoa* because they are small inside. The heating elements are exposed, so there is not a ton of room. You can only use 2 racks comfortably (3 for cookies, but for other stuff, two). We have pulled our ranges out a few times for work associated with the tile. I definitely think it would be more difficult with a 60". I also like getting two 30's because I wanted all burners. We are vegetarian, so the grill is not really that important to us and we figure we can always pop a griddle on top of the burners. |

Sabjimata, I read your review of the FiveStar posted in 2010. Three years have gone by. Do you still feel the same? Would you buy FiveStar again? I am considering them and are a little unsure, any input would help. Thank you so much! |

We are all fighting colds and I was looking for a nice soup that was Ww points-friendly but also had flavor! This reminds me of Panera's lemon orzo soup. I used lemon zest & 1/4 cup lemon juice instead of lemon grass, and served it over quinoa so it was like chicken and rice soup. I also added ginger, and some baby spinach. Really good!
I should have made more. My family ate this up and drank the juices! Which was hilarious, because when I told them I diced up lemon grass for it they all had a funny look on their faces!
Home recovering from a nasty cold, and made this soup since i am feeling better. I followed the instructions with some variation. I doubled the carrots and celery, used parsley but no lemongrass since I did not have any on hand. Substituted cooked rice for the egg noodles and it tasted great!
This soup is a hit at my house! Very flavorful and easy to prepare. I've already made it a second time. This soup will become part of my rotation.

Hi: Anyone know vintage of this? I have 2. This says "Knight" Ionia MI, the other no ID. Thanks and best regards |
Follow-Up Postings:
It could be as late as thirties. I recently gave my step-daughter a similar bedroom set purchased in '35 by my In-laws when they were wed. I also have a set very similar in my master bedroom. Not sure of the vintage on that one, but it has the super-high headboard and I'm guessing 20s or before. |
Could we see a picture of the posts, bedrails, feet, and the back of the headboard? |
This one appears to be walnut. Our other one, slightly bigger is Ash or Oak. It also has larger and more elaborate side frames. |
Yes, it looks like walnut to me, too. From the other photographs, I think this might be a mid-Victorian (1860-1880) piece. The bedrails are very Victorian -- later than this, the bedrail became much simpler. Could we have a close-up of the fitting at the end of the bedrail? It looks like it might be a thick iron "tab," which would also date the bed to this time. This was not a high-style piece -- it is simpler than many of the overblown (but delightful!) furniture of the era. It has some elements of the Renaissance Revival style -- the arched top, the applied decoration, the curved corner on the footboard -- but is more cottage style. Much easier to live with these days, unless you live in an old mansion! However, that curved footboard can make it tricker to get a modern mattress to fit. There is an early listing for Alex. Knight, Furniture, in the Ionia directory attached -- it's date 1872. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ionia directory 1872
Yes, the connectors are thick cast iron tabs and sockets in the headboard/footboard. Thanks so much for the input. |
Yes, on older...... and the tabs were a good input. I have had some luck with newer mattresses on the older beds, but the really new ones don't fit, especially with the demi-corbeille. |
Thanks for input. Our other bed (we sleep in now) did not req. any mod. We ordered a spring/mattress from sears that fit fine. |

we are aware of the issue and are working to restore service as soon as possible sorry, our API is experiencing a limited-scope problem
please see this thread for updates sorry, the developer portal is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance
service is expected to be restored around 09:00PM PST OAuth 2.0 Authorization issues?
As previously announced, LinkedIn is now enforcing redirect URLs rule for OAuth 2.0 applications: More information. If you have any questions, please post to this thread in our forums: Thread for questions OAuth 2.0 Extension
LinkedIn is extending a courtesy brief period for developers to update their OAuth 2.0 redirect URLs.
If you have any questions, please post to this thread in our forums: Thread for questions. OAuth 2.0 Redirection URL
Beginning Monday April 28, 2014, LinkedIn's APIs will begin enforcing OAuth 2.0 redirect URLs.
If you have any questions, please post to this thread in our forums: Thread for questions. On July 21st between 4pm and 7pm PST we will be performing platform maintenance. You may see limited performance issues during this time. We apologize for any inconveniences generated by any service interruptions. We will be performing site wide maintenance on October 10th between 8 pm and 11 pm PST. This maintenance applies to all LinkedIn sites and applications, including our APIs. You may experience limited availability of certain APIs during this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please don't hesitate to reach out on our forums if you continue to experience API availability issues after the maintenance window In light of the recent disclosure of the "Poodle" SSL vulnerability, LinkedIn is joining the large number of services that have actively removed support for SSLv3, effective immediately. If you are experiencing errors related to HTTPS-based communication with our APIs, please ensure you are using a client/library that supports TLS 1.0+ instead of SSLv3 to avoid disruption. Attention, developers! We have transitioned to StackOverflow for forum-based support. Learn more about this change.
Exchange JSAPI Tokens for REST API OAuth Tokens
This document shows you how to "link" the REST API and JavaScript API together via our new token exchange flow. It's now possible for your app to implement "Sign-in with LinkedIn" via an easy JS API button ... and then you can pass the authorization token to your backend and make normal OAuth calls. Going forward, you can use both APIs simultaneously!
We hope this feature delivers the best of both worlds: easy, quick client-side programming with JavaScript combined with powerful, robust, background API calls from your server.
Quick requirements before you proceed:
- SSL - your application must be able to accept inbound https requests.
- OAuth Experience - we strongly recommend that you know how to make a normal LinkedIn OAuth'd REST API call before proceeding.
When accessing the LinkedIn API, your code must supply an authorization token. Historically, LinkedIn has offered two types of tokens:
- OAuth 1.0a - These tokens come from our normal OAuth flow and are used with our RESTful API. Typically, these tokens live forever (unless the granting user revokes them).
Token Exchange Flow
Programmatically, the token exchange flow is simple:
- The application securely passes the JSAPI token from the user's browser to the application's server/backend.
- The backend code makes a call to LinkedIn to exchange the short-lived token for a 60-day, OAuth 1.0a token. The application confirms that this is secure and safe by signing the request with their API secret (normal OAuth, nothing propietary).
To implement this flow, we built two pieces of technology:
A Secure Credentials Cookie - In order to pass (securely!) a user's bearer token from the browser to your server, we have opted to use a secure cookie. At your request, our framework will write a secure, session-only cookie on your domain with the authorization token (and some additional security info). Then, any subsequent https page requests to your domain will communicate the token to your backend.
An Exchange API - Once you have the bearer token on your server, you call a new LinkedIn API for exchanging it. We have simply built a REST API that takes the bearer token as parameter and returns a 60-day, normal OAuth 1.0a token as response. Calling this API is the same as making any LinkedIn REST API call, nothing special. Please note, calling this API requires that you identify yourself with your API secret.
Below, we have provided an end-to-end walkthrough for the token exchange flow. If you're not familiar with our REST API and OAuth, we urge you to read our documentation on OAuth first and make a successful LinkedIn REST API call before continuing.
We use JavaScript and PHP for our examples to illustrate each step. You can download the full sample code in PHP at the bottom of the document. If you write code in another language, please post a link below and we will add a link to it here. We have specifically tested this API with a variety of off-the-shelf OAuth libraries - if you find any special challenges or difficulties using this API, please let us know asap.
Walkthrough - Exchanging a Token in Four Steps
Programmatically, the token exchange divides into four high-level parts:
1. Passing the JS API bearer token to your server using a secure credentials cookie.
2. On your server, reading the cookie and validating its signature to ensure legitimacy.
3. Calling the Exchange API to perform the exchange and receive the OAuth 1.0a tokens for the LinkedIn REST API.
4. Making REST API calls with the retrieved tokens.
Let's attack them in order. If you want to see some existing code, you can use the PHP code attached to this document. In order to get the code to work correctly you need the following setup:
- HTTPS server running (you can use a self-signed certificate for testing this process)
- Your API key pointing correctly to the domain of the server
- You must have PEAR, Pecl and oauth installed (and included in php.ini) for your PHP installation
1. Passing the JS API OAuth 2.0 token to your server using a secure cookie.
Configure the JS API to write a secure cookie on your application domain by adding credentials_cookie: true to the framework initialization script tag:
<script src="http://platform.linkedin.com/in.js">
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
authorize: true
credentials_cookie: true
After that's set, the browser will automatically pass along the cookie to your server on all subsequent HTTPS requests (in this session). Of course, this happens only when a user has authorized your app. If the viewing user has never authorized your app (i.e. never "Signed in with LinkedIn), then your app will not receive any cookie.
For security and privacy reasons, the cookie is only available over https. This requires an SSL certificate and a web server configured to accept HTTPS calls. Unfortunately, since the process varies so widely based on servers and operating systems, you will need to research the best way to do this on your own. If you are using Apache, you can refer to their SSL FAQ for instructions on creating a self-signed certificate and installing it on your server. If you're doing local development on a Mac, there are instructions for creating an https server here. If you make a vanilla, non-SLL HTTP request, no cookie is sent.
An easy way to make an HTTPS request from your page is with an AJAX call. Be sure to reference the page using a fully qualified domain.
Here's a short example that uses jQuery inside of the onAuth callback function:
<title>LinkedIn JavaScript API Token Exchange</title>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://platform.linkedin.com/in.js">
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
authorize: true
credentials_cookie: true
// Once we have an authorization, pass back the token
function onLinkedInAuth() {
// this must be the same domain as the application, where we write the cookie
<script type="in/login" data-onAuth="onLinkedInAuth"></script>
Since the JS API uses a secure cookie, you don't need to worry about passing any token information yourself; it comes included as part of the browser's request. Your only requirement is to read the cookie.
If you prefer not to use AJAX, you could also redirect the member to an HTTPS page automatically. But before you do this, please wait for the "onAuth" event to fire - we write the cookie locally from JavaScript and you are not guaranteed that the cookie is available until the "onAuth" fires. You must also set the "authorize" parameter to "true". Otherwise, when you do a redirect, the cookie will not be passed because you did not ask us to preserve the signed in state of the member.
<script> function onLinkedInAuth() { location.href = "https://www.example.org/handler-which-reads-li-auth-cookie.php" } </script>
(Elsewhere, be sure to register this function as an event handler for the auth event using the IN.Event API.)
2. Reading the cookie and validating its signature to ensure legitimacy.
Whether you use AJAX or not, you can use the same code to parse and process the cookie.
The cookie is named linkedin_oauth_API_KEY, where API_KEY is your application's LinkedIn API key. (This is also known as a "consumer_key" in OAuth.)
Its value is a JSON object, which looks like this:
"signature_order": ["access_token", "member_id"],
"signature_version": 1
There are many fields here! The fields of main interest are access_token and member_id. The access_token field is is the JS API bearer token that we are securely passing from the user's browser to your backend. The member_id field is the unique identifier assigned to this particular user, you can use it to link this member to their account in your database.
The rest of the fields are for security purposes (a signature to help you verify authenticity) and for programmatic convenience (a version number in case we update the protocol going forward).
Begin by extracting and converting the JSON cookie to a native object or hash:
// extract data from cookie stored in json
$consumer_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$cookie_name = "linkedin_oauth_${consumer_key}";
$credentials_json = $_COOKIE[$cookie_name]; // where PHP stories cookies
$credentials = json_decode($credentials_json);
As mentioned, the access_token field contains the JS API bearer token which you will use for the actual exchange API call later. Before performing the exchange, however, you should be sure that this is a valid cookie written to your domain by LinkedIn (more information on why you should care about this validation is included below in the FAQ). To validate, we provide you with other details that allow you to calculate a cookie signature using your API key secret. Compare your generated signature with the one in the cookie's signature field; if they match, you know the cookie is legit and from LinkedIn.
The signature base is calculated by concatenating the values of the fields listed in the signature_order field in the order they appear. In this case, it's access_token followed by member_id, or "AD2dpVe1tOclAsNYsCri4nOatfstw7ZnMzWPvvUNSej47H".
After you construct the signature base, use the encryption algorithm specified in the signature_method to calculate the signature using your API secret. For now, the only value we're using is Base64 encoded HMAC-SHA1, the same algorithm used by OAuth. (We separated this out for compatibility just in case.) The value for the HMAC-SHA1 key is the value of the "API secret" from your Application Details page. (This is called the consumer_secret in OAuth.)
Note: For future compatibility, we provide a version field in the cookie. Today, there is only one version, 1. That may change in the future, but it's best to check now.
When you're done, you have a signature to compare to the one from the cookie:
$consumer_secret = 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'; // validate signature if ($credentials->signature_version == 1) { if ($credentials->signature_order && is_array($credentials->signature_order)) { $base_string = ''; // build base string from values ordered by signature_order foreach ($credentials->signature_order as $key) { if (isset($credentials->$key)) { $base_string .= $credentials->$key; } else { print "missing signature parameter: $key"; } } // hex encode an HMAC-SHA1 string $signature = base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha1', $base_string, $consumer_secret, true)); // check if our signature matches the cookie's if ($signature == $credentials->signature) { print "signature validation succeeded"; } else { print "signature validation failed"; } } else { print "signature order missing"; } } else { print "unknown cookie version"; }
3. Making an API call to receive the OAuth 1.0a tokens for the REST API.
Now that you have a legitimate access token, make a secure HTTPS POST to our Access Token URL, https://api.linkedin.com/uas/oauth/accessToken, to retrieve it.
You need to pass four values as query parameters:
- oauth_consumer_key, to identify yourself
- xoauth_oauth2_access_token parameter, set to the value of the access_token field in the cookie.
- signature_method set to HMAC-SHA1
- signature, calculated as described in the OAuth 1.0a spec
The easiest way to accomplish this is by using an off-the-shelf OAuth library (because it will handle 1, 3, and 4 automatically). You only need to pass 2 as a parameter value. For example, using the PHP 5 pecl/oauth library:
// configuration settings
$consumer_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$consumer_secret = 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY';
$access_token_url = 'https://api.linkedin.com/uas/oauth/accessToken';
// init the client
$oauth = new OAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret);
$access_token = $credentials->access_token;
// swap 2.0 token for 1.0a token and secret
$oauth->fetch($access_token_url, array('xoauth_oauth2_access_token' => $access_token), OAUTH_HTTP_METHOD_POST);
// parse the query string received in the response
parse_str($oauth->getLastResponse(), $response);
// Debug information
print "OAuth 1.O Access Token = " . $response['oauth_token'] . "\n";
print "OAuth 1.O Access Token Secret = " . $response['oauth_token_secret'] . "\n";
4. Making REST API calls with the retrieved tokens
Now you can make REST API calls from your backend as if you had completed the regular OAuth 1.0a flow. This token has all the lifecycle semantics as our normal OAuth 1.0a flow. Going forward, you application can use both types of tokens simultaneously - JS API tokens for quick, direct-to-browser API calls and the OAuth 1.0a tokens for background calls. Once you've made the exchange once (per user), you never need to worry about it again - you can make background/offline calls from your server and normal JS API calls whenever the user is on your site (when a valid browser session is available).
Use your existing OAuth client, updating the credentials to identify the member:
// set the new token values for 1.0a requests
Then make a RESTful LinkedIn API call via OAuth 1.0a:
// go to town, fetch the user's profile
$url = 'http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~:(id,first-name,last-name,headline)';
$oauth->fetch($url, array(), OAUTH_HTTP_METHOD_GET, array('x-li-format' => 'json')); // JSON!
$profile = json_decode($oauth->getLastResponse());
print "$profile->firstName $profile->lastName is $profile->headline.";
This REST API code above is equivalent to the following JS API code:
.fields('firstName', 'lastName', 'headline')
.result( function(r) {
var user = r.values[0];
var msg = user.firstName + " " + user.lastName + " is " + user.headline + ".";
Congratulations! You have successfully exchanged your JS API token for a REST API token. You can now make any of our REST API calls from your backend environment. The lifetime of this new token is 60-days, so you can make background calls whenever you want - you are no longer bound by the short lifetime of the bearer tokens. Enjoy!
Q: Do I need to call the exchange API every time a user visits my site?
A: No, the exchange only needs to happen one time (typically early in the user's account lifecycle). Once you have the 60-day OAuth 1.0a token on your backend, you can use that for OAuth calls to our REST APIs. Subsequent usage of the JS API, when the user visits your site again, will work with new client-side bearer tokens ... but you don't need to worry about re-exchanging. Of course, if the user revokes your application's authorization grant (and thus all your tokens become invalid), then you must do everything again.
Q: Why bother with signature validation? What's the point?
A: The main purpose of the credentials_cookie feature is to communicate, securely, two pieces of information from the user's browser to your application: an access_token and LinkedIn member_id for that user.
Practically speaking, there is little point to validating the access_token - if someone attempts to spoof an access token, it will be invalid and we will not exhange it. So it's useless.
However, it is very important to validate the member_id field. This is critical! If your application relies on the LinkedIn JavaScript API for authentication, you need a way to verify that the incoming cookie identifies the correct user. In other words, we must prevent against spoofing attacks where a malicious user provides someone else's member_id as his or her own. By including the member_id in the signature_base (and computing the signature based on our shared API secret), we allow you to verify that the member_id has not been spoofed.
We strongly encourage you to always perform the signature validation.

Almost a couple of years after we learned that Anne Rice left Christianity, here are a couple of update interviews where she talks about how she feels about organized religion and her reasons for leaving Christianity.
In her original coming out statement, she declared:
Today I quit being a Christian. I'm out ... in the name of Christ, I refuse to be anti-gay. I refuse to be anti-feminist. I refuse to be anti-artificial birth control. I refuse to be anti-democrat. I refuse to be anti-secular humanism. I refuse to be anti-science. I refuse to be anti-life. In the name of Christ, I quit Christianity and being a Christian, Amen.
Oh. Too bad. For some reason her loving jesus but not his other followers reminds me of the bumper-sticker "Jesus loves you. Everyone else hates your guts". :)
Hey, maybe someone should start a thread on religious vs atheist bumper stickers- I like "Jesus is coming-look busy" I also like the attempts at one-upsmanship regarding the Christian fish symbol, where first you have the Christian fish on a sticker, then some atheist came up with the fish growing legs with "Darwin" printed across the fish body, then the Christians responded with the giant Jesus fish eating the Darwin fish with the words "Truth" printed across it's body, then-no response yet, as far as I can tell from the atheists-come on folks, you can't let them get the last word in-you look like quitters. Sorry, didn't mean to hijack this thread, but the comment just got me going.
best part is there is only one company making all the stickers and making all the moneys.
I love that atheist co-opting the christian co-opting of Calvin.
It's great how easy it is to turn that stuff around...
Richard, You did it!
Mark have you ever seen the fish that says "& Chips!" inside? lol
I just got back here-'started laughing when i read that-thanks!
I agree, she's just a flaky spiritualist.

robably because most kids now watch newer cartoons and such, so they stopped showing the older ones. I'm not for sure though.
Whatever to the old shorts that they used to play in the hotel rooms? When i went in 2006 and in the summer of 07 they had a channel in the room dedicated to these cartoons. Then when i went back in the fall of 07 they weren't on anymore. And they used to be on in the lobbies all the time but we just got back a week ago and they had on mary poppins one time and the wiggles another.

That is a shame. They use to really entertain my little kids when I needed a few minutes. The lines for check in at certain times of day make a kid a bit fidgety after a long flight and bus ride, so the cartoons were great.
With one bathroom in our hotel room the shorts gave them something to do while we all took our turns showering.
Sometime you just have to wonder why...on various topics.
We were watching them in December 2007 at WDW and at DLR in June 2008.
always plotting, planning, and looking forward to our next adventure...
They are still showing them on the resort room TVs - you just have to hunt for them.
When we were there in September, DS found the cartoons when he was channel surfing. He thinks it was channel 96.
"No capes!"

This issue is part of a much larger problem so far as I can tell.
You can't find the original Disney shorts on television anywhere! The Walt Disney Corporation has how many cable channels? And they can't find ANYWHERE to air the cartoons that brought them notoriety in the first place?
I miss being able to watch those cartoons in the room...the resort lobbies...in the theatre on Main Street...now they're just...nowhere!
As just stated, they ARE still on in the rooms, if you know where to find them. It is possible someone has messed with the TV settings to drop the channel - I don't know how easy it is, or how to get it back - I didn't need to.
As for showing the classic stuff on the cable channels, Disney has simply done what every other "classic" cable network has done, that made a name for themselves showing classic programs. They discovered that newer, original programming brought in larger numbers of viewers - and thus advertising dollars.
I've been dying to see some of the old Vault programming - the old Disneyland show, etc...

Non-WDW: Sci-Fi Storm - SF/Fantasy news
As I've been saying since they first eliminated Vault Disney, why not use one of the many networks they own and turn it into a dedicated Vault Disney Channel.
I would suggest they use ABC Family and move their original programming on that channel to the Disney Channel. This way, everyone would be happy.
If they don't want to do that, go back to airing Vault Disney at Midnight like they used to do. After all, I don't know too many parents who allow their 'tweens to watch TV from Midnight - 6 a.m., do you?
"No capes!"
Interesting. When we were there in June, I specifically asked the front desk at AKL. I saw it playing in the kids area, but couldn't find it anywhere on TV. When I asked the front desk, they told me we couldn't get that in our rooms anymore.
Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy - Walt Disney
Honestly, I'm not sure if the front desk people know what's on the TVs. I've never even noticed a channel list. You'd probably need maintenance to adjust the TV if there is no channel list access from the remote or TV itself.
As far as I know, all the resort TVs are hooked into the same (crappy) cable feed - even the nice new flat panels, showing the same cruddy static-filled stations...
I wonder if BET will get dropped now that the club is closed. I've never even seen BET Jazz active - it has always shown the system logo for as long as I can remember.

When I was at the ALMusic in Dec 07 they were definitely playing the old cartoons. My DD was watching them all the time. To the point that we knew which cartoon was next as they were playing on a loop that was changed daily or every other day. I believe the channel was 96. If you do not see it when you are changing channels, then press the 9 and 6 buttons. There is a button on some remotes that will allow you to add or delete channels (I know this since my DD was able to erase different channels that were preprogrammed on my TV - so this may have happened to some of your TVs)

Explore the Dark Frontier
Download a free follow-up adventure for Forsaken Bounty |
Rogue Trader | Published 29 July 2009 |
Greetings Rogue Trader fans!
Just around the corner is Gen Con 2009, where fans can get their first real look at the Rogue Trader core rulebook! As part of this momentous occasion, I've put together a special surprise.
Back in June, we were proud to participate in Free RPG Day, and the Rogue Trader quick-start booklet Forsaken Bounty was the result. Today, I am pleased to announce that there is a sequel to Forsaken Bounty, a free adventure suitable for the pre-generated characters and quick-start rules from that booklet. It is called Dark Frontier, and it is written by the same author as Forsaken Bounty, Owen Barnes.
Dark Frontier takes your Rogue Trader characters on a perilous journey to a forbidden, alien region of the Koronus Expanse. Can your Explorers discover the secrets of the Dark Frontier? Great risks and great rewards await!
Dark Frontier - high-resolution (PDF, 44.6 MB)
Dark Frontier - web-quality (PDF, 3.2)
Rogue Trader is a roleplaying game set in dark gothic far future of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40,000 universe. Players take on the roles of explorers aboard a Rogue Trader's ship, searching for profit and adventure while discovering new alien cultures and threats in the uncharted regions of space.
it would be nice if those adventures could be offered for re-sale-or at least to game stores.
PDF Only but 2 free adventures. I am going to run them over and over till i have all my local gamers hooked and drooling for Rogue Trader ( evil laugh here)
They give this RT-release a really nice back-up. The adventure bases on a rather "standard" space opera situation (no spoilers here!), but it reads really really nice. Especially for a freebee!
Salute to you, FFG, for this one! I look forward to your first self-written/non-black libary made-for-sale adventure-modules. ...well, you know.. "real modules"..not like this 70-page-affaire of yours :P
You can preorder it on Amazon as we speak...
2 free adventures, and the game isn't even out yet? Thanks FFG! :P
Sorry, this is PDF only.
Very cool. This does beg the question: will there be a hardcopy of this booklet available (say at GenCon) and will it be possible to get one without continent hopping (as Indianapolis is a wee bit far)?
