I have never dried fruit, or anything, before but I have a fig tree and a friend loaned me her Excalibur dehydrator to try. It's an old model which I don't suppose matters that much, but can I dry them whole? My figs are Brown Turkey, medium size. The instructions, which are not at all clear say to hot water bath, with no explanation of what that is and to cut them in quarters. The only hot water bath I'm familiar with in putting up food is when canning. Can anyone help me out here?

Jude, I'm suspecting that their hot water bath is a quick bath to kill anything on the surface of the fruit. I've seen them home dried done in halves and the link I'm posting seems to have good information. I love figs. Good luck. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Fig Drying
I suggest you follow the information at the National Center for Home Food Preservation, which is: "Select fully ripe fruit. Wash or clean well with damp towel. Peel dark skinned varieties if desired. Leave whole if small or partly dried on tree; cut large figs in halves or slices. If drying whole figs, crack skins by dipping in There are new standards that nearly always include some sort of acidic bath to help reduce the potential for bacteria growth on home-dried foods (see: http://www.ext.colostate.edu/safefood/newsltr/v8n4s01.html). Blanching (boiling water or steam) is done to halt the enzyme action, much like we do for foods we freeze. --For faster drying, cut the figs in half or finely chop. --You can also make "candied" figs. Make a syrup by combining 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 c. water. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Drop whole figs gradually into syrup without stopping the boiling. Cook over low heat until they look transparent, about 40-50 minutes. Stir occasionally to keep from sticking. Drain well (use some cooling rack set inside rimmed baking sheets. Put some parchment paper on the bottom of the pan to catch the drips.) --Drying temperature - 160-degrees F for 1 to 2 hours, then reduce the temperature to 130-degrees F until dry. --Three pounds of figs = 1-pound dried. --Wash carefully to remove dirt. Remove stems. Large figs may be halved or quartered. Dry them skin-side down. --Try to place the same sizes of dates (or pieces) on one tray, or one half of a tray, for better drying. When you mix sizes you risk the small pieces getting over-dried and the largest pieces under-dried. Under-dried figs (or any food) will have too much moisture remaining in them and may mold during storage. --After the figs (whole or pieces) are completely dry, allow to come to room temperature before packaging. If you pack them while they are still warm there will be enough moisture remaining to potentially cause mold formation. BUT, don't let them sit too long at room temperature because they will reabsorb moisture from the air. Same thing when removing them from the storage container. Don't leave the lid off for a prolonged period of time or the food may reabsorb moisture. --Conditioning. I suggest placing them in a jar (fill 1/2 to 3/4 full so you have room for movement when you shake them) with a tight-fitting lid. Shake the container daily for a few days and look for moisture or condensation in the jar. If there IS any condensation, place the figs back in the dehydrator and finish drying them, cool and condition again. --Mold. If any mold develops during storage, destroy the entire contents of the jar because there are mold spores throughout the food, not just the portion that shows mold growing. -Grainlady |
Here is a link that might be useful: Drying Fruits
Thanks Coconut, they are in the dehydrator now. Apparently the hot water bath was to remove any waxy surface that might be present, and only for 1 minute. I suspect it was also for the reason you stated. I'm excited to be able to preserve them another way besides jam, preserves and such. jude |

1 Gather yourselves together; gather together, undesirable nation, | 1 Gather together, gather together, O shameful nation, |
2 before the decree takes effect and the day passes like chaff, before the burning of the Lord's anger overtakes you, before the day of the Lord's anger overtakes you. | 2 before the appointed time arrives and that day sweeps on like chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD comes upon you, before the day of the LORD's wrath comes upon you. |
3 Seek the Lord, all you humble of the earth, who carry out what He commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be concealed on the day of the Lord's anger. | 3 Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the LORD's anger. |
4 For Gaza will be abandoned, and Ashkelon will become a ruin. Ashdod will be driven out at noon, and Ekron will be uprooted. | 4 Gaza will be abandoned and Ashkelon left in ruins. At midday Ashdod will be emptied and Ekron uprooted. |
5 Woe, inhabitants of the seacoast, nation of the Cherethites! The word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines: I will destroy you until there is no one left. | 5 Woe to you who live by the sea, O Kerethite people; the word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines. "I will destroy you, and none will be left." |
6 The seacoast will become pasturelands with caves for shepherds and folds for sheep. | 6 The land by the sea, where the Kerethites dwell, will be a place for shepherds and sheep pens. |
7 The coastland will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; they will find pasture there. They will lie down in the evening among the houses of Ashkelon, for the Lord their God will return to them and restore their fortunes. | 7 It will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; there they will find pasture. In the evening they will lie down in the houses of Ashkelon. The LORD their God will care for them; he will restore their fortunes. |
8 I have heard the taunting of Moab and the insults of the Ammonites, who have taunted My people and threatened their territory. | 8 "I have heard the insults of Moab and the taunts of the Ammonites, who insulted my people and made threats against their land. |
9 Therefore, as I live- the declaration of the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel- Moab will be like Sodom and the Ammonites like Gomorrah- a place overgrown with weeds, a salt pit, and a perpetual wasteland. The remnant of My people will plunder them; the remainder of My nation will dispossess them. | 9 Therefore, as surely as I live," declares the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, "surely Moab will become like Sodom, the Ammonites like Gomorrah-- a place of weeds and salt pits, a wasteland forever. The remnant of my people will plunder them; the survivors of my nation will inherit their land." |
10 This is what they get for their pride, because they have taunted and acted arrogantly against the people of the Lord of Hosts. | 10 This is what they will get in return for their pride, for insulting and mocking the people of the LORD Almighty. |
11 The Lord will be terrifying to them when He starves all the gods of the earth. Then all the distant coastlands of the nations will bow in worship to Him, each in its own place. | 11 The LORD will be awesome to them when he destroys all the gods of the land. The nations on every shore will worship him, every one in its own land. |
12 You Cushites will also be slain by My sword. | 12 "You too, O Cushites, will be slain by my sword." |
13 He will also stretch out His hand against the north and destroy Assyria; He will make Nineveh a desolate ruin, dry as the desert. | 13 He will stretch out his hand against the north and destroy Assyria, leaving Nineveh utterly desolate and dry as the desert. |
14 Herds will lie down in the middle of it, every kind of wild animal. Both the desert owl and the screech owl will roost in the capitals of its pillars.

Everyone who passes by her jeers and shakes his fist. | 15 This is the carefree city that lived in safety. She said to herself, "I am, and there is none besides me."

Is it too late to plant shrubs and/or can I overwinter in shrubs in pots in the garage? DH just mentioned that HD has 50% off on shrubs. We just bought a house needs foundation plantings. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It is getting a bit late. Although most hardy shrubs will probably be ok, if we get a fast freeze in the next couple weeks, their roots may not have established enough. I have bought shrubs on sale in late fall and stored them in my cool cellar. You could also store them in an attached, unheated garage. Key is cold (but slightly above freezing) and dark--the shrubs will go dormant. Water very sparingly, and bring outside into the light gradually beginning in March. What shrubs are you thinking of buying? |

Find exactly what you're looking for with the web's most powerful recipe filtering tool.
I find it wonderful and fascinating that thanks to the Internet I am able to enjoy recipes from around the world, carrying their distinct cultures and traditions with them. Sometimes it also gets me thinking about how different things were back in my grandmother's times when you even had to grind spices in a hand mill and start afresh at every meal time before there were refrigerators or freezers. But enough of the ramblings. Basically I am an impulsive cook. I love improvising recipes with whatever I have in the pantry and have whipped up some pretty decent meals as a result thereof.
I love spicy food and a regular meal of mine would have a spice level of no less than 8 or 9 and yet I toally savour the mild herbal taste of some Japanese or arabic dishes.
I love recipes that use simple,everyday ingredients and try my best to substitute fresh ingredients for canned stuff. Like a whole lot of the earth's population I do not live in the US of A :) and hence do not have easy access to convenient boxed stuff by certain brands or for that matter certain varieties of cheeses and chocolates and am always on the lookout for easy substitutes. I love recipezaar's collection of recipes and would particularly like to mention the recipes of kittencal who has never failed to please with her foolproof recipes.
I have actually written a poem (one of my other passions) on what cooking means to me. The little joys and wonders of cooking to me really are a lesson in life itself.
The list of my favourite foods is endless but being Pakistani I love my own cuisine. Basically I'm a meat lover and the list of animal body parts that I've had can make heads and stomachs turn. Suffice to say that brain, tongue, heart, lungs, hoofs, livers, trachea, I've had it all. And yet I can not imagine not having a regular dose of my favourite veggies like Okra, egg plants, zucchini, squash amongst many others. From other parts of the world I particularly love Argentinian steaks, Chinese, Thai, Lebanese and many continental delicacies.
I am particularly famous for my potato salad, fudge brownies, chicken karahi, Cantonese Chicken chilly, Lasagna and Fajitas.
I think those reading this will get a fair idea that my passion for cooking is in direct competition with my passion for writing. So I will let my recipes speak for themselves.

TUCSON - The City Council voted to approve $760,000 in additional spending to conduct repairs and construction at the Tucson Convention Center, making way for a $8 million renovation project spearheaded by Rio Nuevo.
It's been about a year since The City of Tucson struck a deal with Rio Nuevo. It ended an era of dispute with plans for improvements to TCC.
Rio Nuevo agreed to dedicate nearly $7.8 million toward renovations. However, before that can take place, the city must take care of deferred maintenance to the facility.
The main problem area: the TCC arena.
Torn seating, sub-par bathrooms and a leaking roof are just some signs of neglect.
"So it's like if you were remodeling your house, your contractor told you that you had a bad roof ...That's pretty much what happened today -- they've got to fix that first," said Fletcher McCusker, the Chairman for the Rio Nuevo District Board.
The city has been responsible for maintenance and repair of the arena and the overall TCC since it was built, so the city has had that responsibility. Agreements with Rio Nuevo still give that responsibility to the city," said the city's director of general service department Ronal Lewis.
McCusker hopes that the multi-million dollar renovations to the arena, including improved seating and a sound system will change TCC's image.
"We want our arena to be on the map. Right now it's not, it's boycotted. People go from Palm Springs to Albuquerque ... they go from Phoenix to El Paso. We want people to think about our arena when there's a touring concert or some other kind of program," McCusker said.
Rio Nuevo's $8 million plan for TCC is expected to be finalized by the end of the month. Construction could begin as soon as March.

Indian Pueblos in New Mexico
Indian Pueblos in New Mexico
Sign Language Among North American Indians – Tribal Signs
A general name applied by the Spaniards to several tribes of semi-civilized Indians in what is now New Mexico. The term pueblo, in Spanish, literally means the people and their towns. They were first visited by Cabeza de Vaca in 1537, who conveyed the first authentic account of their villages to Mexico, which resulted, in
Albuquerque Indian School Gallery: Photographs of the Albuquerque Indian School, which was established in 1881 to provide off-reservation industrial training to the Indians of the Southwest.

Maybe meet up for a coffee to see if we can stand each other,lol, then a nice long ride on a wonderful sunny day....burger and ice cold beer...then who knows....
At longest we are riding we can go any where.
I'm pretty easy when it comes to plans. Going for a ride is just about perfect. I do have my own bike, two actually, but i like to be a passenger too. Long winding roads.
Lets keep it simple. Meet somewhere in public where we can talk with each other.
Nice long bike ride with a side order of riding off into the sunset. There's nothing quite like it.
Drinks, riding, anything casual.
We would ride the Pacific coast Highway all the way to Mandelay Beach Stop at my favorite seafood restaurant, sip on some wine and head in to my place on the beach.
I'm am open to about anything as long as we have fun.
Be cool to meet at a mutual standing like at a bar/coffee place near to the river followed by a bike ride :p
Meet for a ride in the country, stop along the way for nice lunch, maybe join other bikers, possibly have a drink before saying good night:)
lets go riding and have fun in charleston or myrtle beach south carolina
Pas een groentje op de motor and sooooooo willing to learn. Hoef ik mij geen gps aan te schaffen :-)

In the quest for a new lipgloss, I stumbled onto this stuff via reviews and just picked it up today. Omg, this reminds me of a Clinique POT gloss that I got from one of my mom's GWP's when I was in high school almost THIRTY years ago! I LOVED that stuff! So, how happy was I to find it again and in a much nicer package! Regardless, it IS sticky, but if you just use a little bit and spread it out, it's wonderful. A little dab will do ya! A great gloss that is a very wearable coralish reddish pink with golden shimmer (not glitter). I have so many sheer glosses that seem to lose their little bit of color in no time, leaving me washed out, but this stuff is just right, particularly perfect for summer! Love it!!! Will definitely be a new staple for me now that I (re) discovered it!
This is literally the worst lip gloss i ever used.The color itself is nice, but the formula is terrible and the glitter is way over the top. It felt extremely thick on my lips when I put it on, it was really sticky and it was like I had superglue on my lips or something. I prefer a smoother, balmier/more oily feeling lip gloss. This was like tar. There was way too much glitter in it. All the little specks were very noticeable. And it also had a strong sunscreen smell. When I tried to wipe it off with a tissue, this gloss was so thick that the tissue started rubbing off in balls. It was disgusting. I can't believe this has such high reviews. The only redeeming thing about this is that the color seems like a wearable shade. I'm really disappointed with this. I usually like stuff from clinique but this was a real let down.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Good longlasting lipgloss. Perfect for summer! I really love the corally colour. It's a bit sticky but I don't mind. The only con is that it spoils really fast, I had my last tube for just a few months when it started smelling really bad. I love it so much that I'm prepared to give it another try. Will update in the future.
I wouldn't wear this on its own as not bright enough but I love the feel of it on my lips - stays on a long time and I wear this over Revlon Lip Bitten stain and I just reapply over stain and always have colour. Love it
More reviews by MarilynMonroeBeauty246
I like this product a lot, but it is really sticky, so you can only put on a little at a time. It's also very glittery, so if you put too much on, it looks really weird.
This is the closest I can get to doing a "red lip". Any lip product with the slightest hint of red usually looks like a hot mess on me, but this is perfect. I also pair it with NYC's lipstick in #406 Garnet and they are beautiful together.
I am overall a lipstick person and lip gloss are just too sticky for me. however i got it as gwp, i'm in love with it and went on to get a full size tube after i've gone through half of the gwp. the color is great, as it's very close to my lip color only better and with a hint of glitter and shine. it's not as greasy as other lip gloss, still sticky but last for a really long time, even after drinks! Besides, it doesn't smell! well it does have a slight tinge of plastic smell, but that's totally fine cuz a thin coat is all i need in hours.
so far, i think THIS IS THE ONLY LIP GLOSS I WOULD PURCHASE AGAIN
Pretty nice packaging, it looks very clean cut and the stopper is pretty good, not messy, although there is a bit of extra residue at the tip of the doe foot applicator that you may wish to watch out for.
The colour is gorgous, a sultry pinkish, red with some shimmer.
Although the product itself it is a bit sticky, it's VERY long lasting and moisturizing, will definitely repurchase..
The color of this gloss is really beautiful! Peachy-pink. Very glossy, with a little shimmer. It is sticky, as the other reviewers say, but the color is so pretty that I don't mind.... The color is very flattering to my fair skin, brown hair. I imagine this will look great on most people.
What a lovely gloss! I received this as a GWP and I would normally not purchase a HE gloss, I usually just make do with drugstore. But this one has changed my mind. I love the color of this on me (NC15) it's a shimmery pink/red color. It does last longer than my other glosses and the packaging is very cute.. I am definately going to buy the full size when this runs out.

The Lying Down Laptop Stand lets users lie down comfortably while using their computers.
Exactly as it sounds, the Lying Down Laptop Stand by Thank, a Japanese electronics company, allows users to fasten their laptops onto the adjustable stand and flip it upside down or to any angle that suits them. The easy-to-assemble product helps prevent users from craning their necks in awkward positions while trying to watch a movie or checking their email in bed. Unlike many electronics or stands that also accommodate computers and books, the Lying Down Laptop Stand can be converted into a regular computer table. The plate or rest for the laptop measures 23 x 1.6 x 11.8 inches and can hold up to 35 pounds. Aside from the awesome fact that people can now surf lying down, it also feels like watching a TV that's on the ceiling.

Hi all, is Miraclegro good for cannas or does anyone suggest another fertilizer? I am growing cannas in a bed of annuals(having lost all the perennials in a nor'easter) and have been using Miraclegro. Here in MA we lift in the fall and replant in the spring, so I am looking for maximum growth for this season only. Beds were amended with composted manure and new soil after the storm, but the late planting and salty soil(and more rainy, cold weather after the storm) has resulted in small plants for this time of year. What do you use to grow really tall, beautiful cannas? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Miracle-Gro and other chemical fertilizers might stimulate new growth, but they don't do any long-term good. They make plants more susceptible to desease and attack by insects. Chemical fertilizers also destroy the microbiotic life in the soil. Get an organic fertilizer and/or some more organic material. At the Lowe's and Home Depot stores in my neighborhood there is a more expensive manure that is much better than what they call composted manure. It's called "Black Cow" and comes in a yellow and black 40-pound bag. More poop, less filler - your cannas would love this stuff. |

The James Clyburn 2012 DNC speech spotlighted President Barack Obama as the only individual capable of leading the American people out of its current darkness and into a prosperous and bright future. From unaffordable and inaccessible health care to increasing unemployment rates and unacceptable levels of poverty, Clyburn pins Obama as the only candidate who is truly dedicated to making a difference in the lives of American citizens and tackling these issues.
The James Clyburn 2012 DNC speech is based on a metaphor about lighting candles for the future. Clyburn insists that Obama is the only individual consistently lighting candles for a better and brighter future for the nation. He encourages his audience to consider the efforts put forward by Obama over the last four years, and his undeniable dedication to persevere and fight for the country.

Europa Island
Europa Island Île Europa
Motto: "Liberté, égalité, fraternité" | ||||
Anthem: La Marseillaise | ||||
Location of the Scattered islands in the Indian Ocean.
KM=Comoros MG=Madagascar MU=Mauritius MZ=Mozambique RE=Réunion YT=Mayotte |
Europa Island (French: Île Europa) is a 28 km² low-lying tropical atoll in the Mozambique Channel, about a third of the way from southern Madagascar to southern Mozambique. The island has been a possession of France since 1897, but is also claimed by Madagascar. The island, garrisoned by a detachment from Réunion, has a weather station and is visited by scientists. Though uninhabited, it is part of the "Scattered Islands" of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands administrative region. Europa Island was the setting of a 1968 episode of "The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau",[1] partly focusing on the breeding habits of the green sea turtle.
Europa is 6 km in diameter, with a maximum altitude of 6 metres, and has 22.2 kilometres of coastline. It is surrounded by coral beaches and a fringing reef and encloses a mangrove lagoon of around 9 km2 and open to the sea on one side. There are no ports or harbours but anchorage is possible offshore. Its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), contiguous with that of Bassas da India, is 127,300 km2. The airstrip is 1,500 metres long.
Climate is affected by the Agulhas Current with water temperatures usually above 30°C, southeast trade winds during the (austral) winter and occasional cyclones.
The island is a nature reserve. Its vegetation consists of dry forest, scrub, euphorbia, the mangrove swamp, and the remains of a sisal plantation. It is one of the world's largest nesting sites for green sea turtles. It is also home to goats introduced by settlers in the late 18th century.
The island has been identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports a large and diverse population of breeding seabirds and other waterbirds. It is the only known breeding site outside Aldabra and Madagascar for Malagasy Pond Herons. Seabirds include the second largest colony in the western Indian Ocean of Great Frigatebirds (with up to 1100 pairs), Audubon's Shearwaters (up to 100 pairs, probably of the subspecies Puffinus lherminieri bailloni previously considered endemic to the Mascarene Islands), Dimorphic Egrets and Caspian Terns. The island is home to an endemic subspecies of White-tailed Tropicbird (Phaethon lepturus europae). There are three species of landbirds present, one of which is an endemic subspecies of the Malagasy White-eye (Zosterops maderaspatanus voeltzkowi).[2]
While the island has probably been sighted by navigators since at least the 16th century, it takes its name from the British ship Europa, which visited it in December 1774. Ruins and graves on Europa island attest to several attempts at settlement from the 1860s to the 1920s. For example, the French Rosiers family moved to the island in 1860, but subsequently abandoned it.[3]

Around the camera it's cracked, the headphone area, the volume button, and where the sound comes from. It's a great case definetly saves your iPod, mine doesn't have a crack. I have only had this case for 4 months. Disappointed with the plastic for the price. -

Price Value Quality4.3I have used quite a few iPod Touch cases in the past, but this one really stands out!
I bought mine on Amazon and I think the pricing is reasonable.
My iPod Touch fell of my desk some time ago, and this cased protected it!
I also really love that it is hugs the iPod Touch very well!
The grips on the back of the case are helpful to.
The soft material on the inside is soft so it will not scratch your iPod Touch.
The plastic on the outside is very good quality and scratches do not show.
Thanks for reading my review :) -

Best Ipod Touch case ever!!!
posted by MaverickAJO
Quality Price Value4.7I love my Ipod Touch 5g and I alway take good care of my gadgets so I started looking for a case. It was slim pickings though, there wasnt a lot of Itouch 5g cases on the market and the ones I did find were cheap and ugly. I ended up getting an Oterbox defender for it but it was to bulky and hard to remove and assemble. I so happy I found Speck and the Candy shell grip, its my favorite case Ive ever used on any device. It provides great everyday protection while staying very slim and I dont loose any funtionality, all port and buttons are easy to use. The grips really help to get a firm hold on your device without being to annoying or iritating on your hands. I Also I love the style the grips add to the look of the case, I got the black/red version and It looks awesome with my black Ipod. Overall a great case for the ipod touch 5g and I highly recommend it, I thought the price was a tad high but I have no regrets. It was money well spent! -

It hasen't even been 5 months since I bought this case and its allready breaking! The protection is exellent but the durability of the outer plastic shell needs to be a lot better. -

There needs to be a case for the 16GB iPod touch!
posted by Isaiah
Value Quality Price4This is a nice case. I always used Speck on my 4th generation iPod touch. My only complaint is that there is no case for the 16GB 5TH generation iPod touch!! There is no iSight camera or loop on the 16GB model and there are no compatible cases for it! Speck says they're "planning" to make one, but how can they be planning to make a case that they already have, for two months! All they have to do is not make a cutout for the camera and loop, and put a pin hole for the microphone at the top! I want a case for my 16GB iPod touch. I'm sick of it!

If you're looking for a game to wash away the staleness which besets contemporary publishing, Bioshock Infinite is that game. It's no money-squeezing follow-up, but a calculated, even mocking response to the celebrated original. It's a game not just of vast mysteries - just what is the nature of the "debt" that haunts Pinkerton detective Booker DeWitt? - but of small ones - an anachronistic choice of music here, a cryptic coin-tossing episode there.
The combat is the most pedestrian thing about it (well, unless you count the insipidly high octane boxart), which is saying rather a lot given that the combat often sees you dangling by one arm from a speeding monorail, throwing lumps of magma at robots. After playing an hour or two, I cornered Irrational's level designer Shawn Elliott for a protracted, engaging chat about the difficulties of publicising such an exotic mix, current directions in first-person shooter design, the significance of free-to-play and the fate of an industry hell-bent on spending hundreds of millions per game.
So, how many times have you had the boxart question today?
Quite a few, I'd say. It seems to be a hot topic, surprisingly.
Selling a more involved, less action-driven FPS like this to the so-called "frat boy" demographic must be a challenge. How do you do that without compromising your vision?
I'm not going to duck that, but it's overseeing marketing and stuff - I just make the stuff, I don't sell it, you know? So, I really am not involved in any of that, but I can imagine that it's a very difficult challenge to take and create a single image that says everything that needs to be said in the game.
I mean, God - imagine, you know, writing a book and trying to make the same kind of statement with a book cover, a movie poster or anything. Stanley Kubrick is one of my favourite directors and his movie posters are always phenomenal, but they don't ever really tell me anything at all about the contents of the movie, so I imagine it's a challenge.
We have several principal characters: Elizabeth, Songbird, the city itself is the biggest character - that's Bioshock, you know, the city as the character, that's the essential DNA that threads all Bioshock games together going forward. So, how do you sell that? Then there's the skyhook and skylines, which are also essential, there's Liz opening tears, and you can imagine quickly that gets confusing.
Box art in the 80s, for early games they tried literally to put everything on there - so you'd have game box art where there's a dinosaur on one side, there's a spaceship on the other, and you really don't understand what the hell is happening.
I'd have thought an epic ensemble artwork like the posters Lucasfilm put together for Star Wars would have suited you guys very well.
Maybe so.
You say you're not involved - but it must impact you when somebody produces art for your game that doesn't reflect the content. Isn't it frustrating, or at least interesting?
No. I wasn't frustrated at all, because the interesting thing is that the game so far has largely been discussed by enthusiasts - those people got to see our very first stab at the game at reveal, they got to see the E3 trailer, they got to see pretty much everything - any time we put media out about the game, every screenshot or whatever they have been aware of it. So I don't really have to worry that they're getting the wrong impression, because they've picked up on every impression that we've made.

Just started reading this forum (been on the orchard forum for a long time.)
as I read thru various posting I see the need for a thermal storage mass for cold climate greenhouses. I own a granite fabrication shop and we throw away 100's of sq. ft. of 1-1/4" granite pieces every week. the discared pieces are too small to save. situated in a rack that holds the slab pieces upright maybe an inch or two apart the granite peices could store a LOT of heat in a relatively small space just by blowing warm air thru them with a small fan. Any granite fabricator has a lot of this kind of waste; ask around and you can probably get pieces for free just by asking. |

Good tip oldryder, but not sure that they would be any better that water, which is pretty cheap: MATERIAL THERMAL MASS |
Here is a link that might be useful: source
stressbaby; thx for reply. yes, water is pretty cheap and a heat exchanger for water thermal mass could also be cost comparable to a fan blowing thru vertical pieces of stone. |

Dec 15th 2008 5:13PM Hey Brad, do you spam Death Strike as much as possible? The extra 1-2k health I get back helps a lot.

Dec 15th 2008 5:03PM Bone Shield will still be useful and all specs will still use Frost Presence when tanking, so I don't see any loss in viability.
Having done frost and blood in beta, I think it's all about play style and what you're comfortable with. I personally prefer the AoE tanking style of Unholy. Unholy Blight, Pestilence, Wandering Plague, plus Anti-Magic Zone and having a pet and a gargoyle to help.
While I may take a bit more burst damage, I never lose aggro no matter how many mobs are pulled.

I hate that crap ... Unholy does just fine thank you. It seems to come from non-DKs who read something about the class a few months back. I've been easily tanking heroics for the past few weeks, although certain healers do seem to have an easier time with DKs, druids come to mind.

Forget Joe Johnson, These Are The Worst NBA Contracts
During the last CBA, we saw a startling jump in player salaries, poor owner decisions and roster moves that made the average fan scratch their head. Most teams spent tens of millions of dollars on big-name, flashy shooting guards and small forwards who put the ball in the bucket, put wins in the "W" column and most importantly, put the butts in the seats.
Meanwhile, the undercurrent in the NBA has been the overpayment of no-name, blundering big men. The most famous of the bunch is Erick Dampier, who signed a deal with Mark Cuban's Dallas Mavericks that ended up paying him a whopping $12.1 million in the last year. Read More »

Engineering Biology, or Bio-engineering, is an emerging interdisciplinary field that is based on the increasing symbiosis between the biological sciences and engineering disciplines. Evolution in engineering technology and scientific knowledge resulted in new specializations in the work force, including bioinformatics, computational biology, biomedical imaging, bio-instrument and sensor technology, tissue engineering, bionics, genetic engineering, and MEMS-based diagnosis and drug delivery. Training in Engineering Biology provides the necessary foundations in the life sciences and in engineering, along with more focused training in one of five areas of specialty.
Am I a candidate for Engineering Biology?
Students should be capable of handling calculus-level math and physics, comprehensive chemistry and advanced-level biological sciences. Students can enroll into the program at any phase of their college experience. In particular, the program is designed so that the undecided engineering or sciences student can start by taking the core classes before committing to Engineering Biology. The first two years of the program mainly include foundations in the sciences and engineering, while the specialized courses are offered in the third and fourth years. Consult with the program advisors (Professors Hannah and Lal) to learn about how you can join, or transfer into this program.
Program overview
The program in engineering biology, offered jointly by the School of Engineering and Computer Science and the College of Arts and Sciences, leads to the Bachelor of Science degree. It combines training in biology with depth in either computation or engineering.
To earn the degree of Bachelor of Science with a major in Engineering Biology, students must complete 130 credit hours; 28 of these credits must be at 300-level or above.

Tallit, Prayer Shawls, Healing Scarves, Torah Cover and Chuppah R'fuah shleimah healing scarf UPDATES POSTED ON Facebook! May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable... When my Russian-born grandfather was 18 years old, his two
brothers, studying to be Torah scribes, were murdered by Cossacks. My grandfather, whom I
never met, came to The donning of a prayer shawl or a tallit bids us pay attention. We wear a tallit for morning prayers and festival days, a prayer shawl without tzitzit other times. We should know which end is up in this complex world, hence we wear an atarah (a collar, literally, a crown). You may order one separately, or I will make you both together. If you desire a tallit, there will be reinforced corners with tzitzit tied by me or you may tie your own. Click interview to see me talk about the modern tallit on Arizona Public Media's AZ ILLUSTRATED, January 2014 Radio interview podcast with Rabbi Sam Cohon, April 2014 (segment begins at 41:00) PRICING STARTS AT $700 Ha Makom congregation, led by Rabbi Malka Drucker, is filled with joyous singers-- my use of color reflects that joy. R.Malka's tallit contains the congregation's signature call to Judaism on the atarah-- a Mogen David integrated with a shofar. The Pomegranate Tallit 613 seeds/ 613 Mitzvot 14" x 72" sand-washed crepe de chine/silk charmeuse atarah and corners I draw and paint each tallit by hand. If a prayer, Torah portion, or symbol resonates for you, especially as an adult B'nai Mitzvah, let's talk about a custom design. Now to the prayer-- Traditionally, the atarah may hold "Blessed are you, Lord, our God, sovereign of the universe, Who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to wrap ourselves in the tzitzit." There may be another that speaks to your intention. Let it be one that calls to you when you read it in preparation to open your inner spirit. This is mine, including the vowels; you may have them without. "May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable to thee Adonai, my rock and my redeemer." Mountain Sunset Tallit $600 14" x 72" sand-washed crepe de chine/silk charmeuse atarah More on Facebook! "But where shall wisdom be found and where is the place of understanding?" asked Job. "He (Adonai) will instruct his angels to guard you in all your paths." Psalm 91:11 Created for a Bat Mitzvah girl whose middle name is White Dove. She lives in the mountains, but is connected to the ocean and dolphins.On the corners are the matriarchal names of her mother Dana, grandmother Raisa, and biblical Miriam and Sarah. Created for a Bat Mitzvah girl whose middle name is White Dove. For Stav, Hebrew for Autumn, whose Israeli father chose Hillel's timeless question "f not now, when?" for his daughter's tallit. At Stav's request, a forever endless river runs through the aspens of her home and the maple trees of her Canadian mother. Women of the Wall~ Nashet Kotel prayer excerpt: May no woman or girl be silenced ever again among your people Israel or in all the world. And for a girl who knows she will be a marine biologist:
Psalm 104 Gifts of the Ocean Tallit "Blessed are You, Adonai, King of the Universe, that such as these are in Your world." From one 75 year old to another, friends since college, this gift: "May Adonai lift up His face unto you and give you peace." Designed for a woman who grows wildflowers and creates her personal Garden of Eden. A quietly elegant tallit for a teacher of mussar in Tucson, Psalm 42:2 As the deer longs for water, so do I long for thee, O God. Desert Bloom: Judah Halevi's poetry, written in the 12th century, begins on the atarah: "My heart cries out to you, please draw near to me" and continues into the tallit : The moment I reach out to you, I find you reaching in to me." Love and Life: The challenge--a tallit with hearts, in pink, that walks through the garden of love, life and laughter. The result-- On one side I placed (within a heart) the Hebrew word lav /heart, which ancient scholars wisely did not separate from the mind. In the other heart, chai/ life, for what is life without heart? Sing unto Adonai a new song, sing unto Adonai, all the earth Psalm 96:1 Designed for a beloved Chazzan Cindy Freedman, a harp and shofar adorn the atarah. The corners hold a flute, lyre, tambourine, and the cantor's guitar. The same prayer became a river of song sung by doves of peace for a Canadian Bat Mitzvah. Music, music, music...a guitar grows into a tree of life This client was very specific as to color and form, wanting these wings of feminine Shechina God-energy to wrap around her. "Blessed be those who come beneath the winds of Shechina"Rainbow Tallit---When a father came to me and said, I want my daughter wrapped in a rainbow, I was faced with the challenge that arises when someone asks for a rendition of natures beauty-- create a gorgeous image that takes the high road of elegance instead of the common path of cute and trite. The atarah is the Golden Rule. Healing scarves shown on a separate page are 30" square habotai silk $150 A tallit client came to me with a request. Her friend was going through the hell of cancer treatment, so could I make a hand painted silk head scarf with a healing prayer. The recipient has a house on an island, so the design is called Mermaid's DNA and in it are the Hebrew words "r'fuah shleimah", which mean "complete healing." The Santa Fe New Mexican featured my work during Breast Cancer Awareness month. Each scarf is a seesaw of the joy of making beauty for someone dealing with pain and uncertainty. MORE TALLITOT Wings, water, and a path through the mountains in the colors of the Southwest.... Psalm 91 "Under Thy wings, I shall find refuge." I do work in all colors, but purple and blue are often my client's main choices. A rabbi chose Blessed is the one who brings Torah to the people of Israel. He specifically requested the rainbow, the eagle and the moon and stars. Congregation Beit Tikva showed its appreciation with this tallit for Cantor Michael Linder. I will sing unto Adonai as long as I live;I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.

Legislators increased the non-designated port funding from $117 million in the current year to $135 million for the next fiscal year and created a $35 million port investment initiative.

Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 And there was given me a reed, like unto a rod. And it was said to me: Arise, and measure the temple of God and the altar and them that adore therein. | 1 I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, "Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the worshipers there. |
2 But the court which is without the temple, cast out and measure it not: because it is given unto the Gentiles. And the holy city they shall tread under foot, two and forty months: | 2 But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. |
3 And I will give unto my two witnesses: and they shall prophesy, a thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth. | 3 And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth." |
4 These are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks that stand before the Lord of the earth. | 4 These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth. |
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire shall come out of their mouths and shall devour their enemies. And if any man will hurt them, in this manner must he be slain. | 5 If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies. This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die. |
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: And they have power over waters, to turn them into blood and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. | 6 These men have power to shut up the sky so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want. |
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the abyss shall make war against them and shall overcome them and kill them. | 7 Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. |
8 And their bodies shall lie in the streets of the great city which is called spiritually, Sodom and Egypt: where their Lord also was crucified. | 8 Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city, which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. |
9 And they of the tribes and peoples and tongues and nations shall see their bodies for three days and a half: and they shall not suffer their bodies to be laid in sepulchres. | 9 For three and a half days men from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. |
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them and make merry: and shall send gifts one to another, because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt upon the earth. | 10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth. |
11 And after three days and a half, the spirit of life from God entered into them. And they stood upon their feet: and great fear fell upon them that saw them. | 11 But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. |
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven, saying to them: Come up hither. And they went up to heaven in a cloud: and their enemies saw them. | 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on. |
13 And at that hour there was made a great earthquake: and the tenth part of the city fell. And there were slain in the earthquake, names of men, seven thousand: and the rest were cast into a fear and gave glory to the God of heaven. | 13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven. |
14 The second woe is past: and behold the third woe will come quickly. | 14 The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon. |
15 And the seventh angel sounded the trumpet: and there were great voices in heaven, saying: The kingdom of this world is become our Lord's and his Christ's, and he shall reign for ever and ever. Amen. | 15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever." |
16 And the four and twenty ancients who sit on their seats in the sight of God, fell on their faces and adored God, saying: | 16 And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, |
17 We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, who art and who wast and who art to come: because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and thou hast reigned. | 17 saying: "We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and have begun to reign. |
18 And the nations were angry: and thy wrath is come. And the time of the dead, that they should be judged and that thou shouldest render reward to thy servants the prophets and the saints, and to them that fear thy name, little and great: and shouldest destroy them who have corrupted the earth. | 18 The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great-- and for destroying those who destroy the earth." |
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven: and the ark of his testament was seen in his temple. And there were lightnings and voices and an earthquake and great hail. | 19 Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant. And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a great hailstorm. |

TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) has announced updated rates for two premium based coverage options, TRICARE Young Adult (TYA) and the Continued Health Care Benefit Program (CHCBP).
TRICARE Young Adult is a plan that qualified adult children can purchase after eligibility for "regular" TRICARE ends at age 21 (or 23 if enrolled in college.) TYA provides medical and pharmacy benefits, but dental coverage is excluded. To participate, you must pay monthly premiums. TYA premium rates are adjusted annually on a calendar year basis. For 2014, rates are increasing $4 per month for both Prime and Standard options:
TRICARE Young Adult
The Continued Health Care Benefit Program is a premium based health care program that offers temporary transitional health coverage for 18-36 months after TRICARE eligibility ends. The CHCBP acts as a bridge between military health benefits and your new civilian health plan with coverage comparable to TRICARE Standard. For eligibility details, please see the TRICARE website. If you are eligible, you may purchase the CHCBP within 60 days of losing TRICARE eligibility. CHCBP quarterly premium rates are adjusted annually on calendar year basis. For 2014, rates have increased $55 per quarter for individuals and $127 per quarter for families:
Continued Health Care Benefit Program
Please note that both TRICARE Young Adult and the Continued Health Care Benefit Program will provide you with the minimum essential coverage (MEC) that is required by the Affordable Care Act beginning in 2014.
Until military families are relieved of the weight of war, we hope you will continue to contribute to their wellbeing.
