Metalarte is a company that has defined its personality through the co-existence of the new and the traditional. Applying Yin and Yang to production has resulted in the possibility of maintaining a catalogue that balances the future and the past, a tradition that began in a workshop at Madrazo Street in Barcelona.
Metalarte, S.A., Barcelona, Spain is a manufacturer of traditional and avant-garde lighting whose origins date back to 1932. The world-renowned global company began within the warmth of a simple metalworking shop where its founder, Antonio Riera felt a unique passion for bright, appropriate lighting — something most unusual in a country that used 125 volts until the beginning of the 1960s.
Today Metalarte combines a pride about its pioneer past and its new state-of-the-art factory and manufacturing abilities. They have chosen to work with such established and esteemed professional designers as Eric Franch, the Devessa Brothers, Josep Aregall, Alberto Lievore, Manuel Molina, Richard Ferrer and Manuel Molina.To further the concept that the future is today, in 2003 Metalarte created its advanced laboratory, Metalab, that has commissioned such new designers as Jamie Hayón, Raymond Úbedy and Otto Candalda, Hector Seranno, Jordi Llopis, Emil Padros and Ana Mir.

Was an excellent place to eat, the owner is a chef. Sadly it was in the wrong location for the two week tourists to know it was there.

Do you remember the first time you successfully sent and received an email message?
Several PCs, laptops, BlackBerrys, iPhones and iPads later, probably not. Technology has advanced tremendously in the last decade, with most of us blazing through computers and gadgets faster than even the speediest internet page load refresh. But not everyone has gone digital at the same speed, and while older adults are more technology-savvy than we tend to give them credit for, there are still many in need of some guidance.
Students at Pace University are making it happen for residents at United Hebrew, a continuing care community in New Rochelle, New York. Per this article on LeadingAge.org, the program (which was also featured in a recent NPR story) is one of several nationwide geared towards seniors who want to ride the information superhighway to which we take for granted having easy access.
Seniors and students are paired together, and as the story relates, many of these pairs develop a strong bond. Before the mentoring relationship even begins, students get a lesson in sensitivity, doing things like taping their fingers together "to simulate the effects of arthritis or a stroke" or plugging their ears with cotton balls to simulate hearing loss.
Perhaps to the surprise of skeptics, program organizer Pamela Norr says the teens and seniors get along well. The seniors are "not criticizing (the teens) for the way (they) dress or clucking their tongue. They're actually respecting (them) for the knowledge base that (they) have."

I am going to have my bathroom with a small stall shower (34x36) remodeled. Is the following a good showerhead?
Delta Faucet 58467-SS Universal Showering Components, In2ition R Two-In-One Shower Arm Mount Shower, Stainless I am also considering the following shower arm
Also, would the following lever match this showerhead?
Thank you very much. |

Hi Janesylvia--is this the same bath that you posted about tile selections? Can't wait to see it! We installed that same showerhead in the bathrooms at our last house. Absolutely loved them. It's wonderful to be able to use the hand held part for shaving legs and still have warm water flowing from above. Because of the way the 2 pieces fit together, you don't have to worry about the handheld falling out of it's holder and whacking you in the head when you least expect it either (that's what got the previous showerheads replaced). I think the lever & shower arm will coordinate beautifully with it. While I really like the stainless, the chrome versions will save you a pretty penny when all is said and done. Something to consider... Good luck! Hope this helps! |

Hi mydreamhome, thank you very much for sharing your experience. Yes, I am choosing the showerhead for a small shower stall. Because it's small, I need to make it look nice and uncluttered. I found the whole set on Amazon as follows: Delta 172939-SS-I Carlisle Monitor 17 Series Shower with In2Ition Two-In-One Shower, Stainless I need to purchase a Valve R10000-UNBX to match the new lever. Delta lever now has flow control and temperature control separate. I don't know if it would indeed make life more convenient. Had the current house remodeled in April. Thank you so much for your help during that remodeling process. Bought another house in September. I need to have some remodeling done before moving in. I am now planning and buying materials for the newly bought house, and still live in the current house. |

- Tom S <h3r3tic remove.mat.uni.torun.pl> Jun 08 2006
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hey there, I wrote a nifty tuple/list template and I thought I'd share it with the community just in case anyone needed something like this. Q: What can this tuple template do that thousands of other implementations can't ? A: It can be specialized for any number of types thru recursion and its fields are accessed by a templated alias, instead of a function template, thus allowing other access patterns than just setting and getting its fields /+ see the usage examples +/. And on top of that... it's very clean implementation-wise :) -- Tomasz Stachowiak /+ a.k.a. h3r3tic +/

Note: This article contains spoilers for Breaking Bad's "Ozymandias".
It's been a long time coming and oh so bittersweet, but Walter White has finally reached a point where even his loyal supporters can no longer justify his actions. The series has certainly provided its viewers with poignant examples before of why Walter isn't a good person and why he shouldn't be rooted for, but it would be a lie for me to say I wasn't myself a supporter of Walt despite his catalogue of atrocities. "Ozymandias", however, leaves us unable to ignore the elephant in the room.
First we see Walter reveal to Jesse that he had been present when Jane died and allowed it to happen. This moment from Walt is petty and unnecessary: he had already beaten Jesse with his typical blind luck and really only decided to add insult to injury because he blames Jesse for Hank's death. This shows Walt's lack of perspective, as he continues to do whatever he can to convince himself that he's not responsible, that he's a wronged man. But how could he or anyone else still think he's not the bad guy after his phone call to Skyler near the end of the episode? After kidnapping his daughter and threatening his wife, Walter has the nerve to blame Skyler for his current predicament. True enough, Skyler has been a difficult character to love, but the idea that she is the catalyst of Walt's recent fatalistic misfortune is really quite ridiculous, especially considering her recent support for and accepting of Walt's criminal tendencies.
The frantic finger pointing and self justification that Walt performs is perhaps Vince Gilligan's address to anyone still defending Walt. Just as he blames Jesse and Skyler for his decline, so too do many supporters desperately try to justify Walt's behavior by blaming Skyler for attacking him or Walter Jr. for calling the police. The fact is that Heisenberg has always been Walt's greatest enemy and no amount of finger pointing is going to change that, be it from the character himself or his fans.
There are still two episodes to go and at the rate that this show is going, it's not likely that Walter is going to have any sort of happy ending. Though circumstances point to some attempt at absolution, it's important to bench expectations when it comes to Breaking Bad, the best programming television has to offer.
Who made the picture? I really love the work!
Does this website have an editor?
Lol and this person probably got paid to write this article. All the journalism classes in the world won't fix stupid.
In response to Matt
He gave Holly back so soon after taking her, because of what happened in the changing the diaper scene. Where Holly was continually saying "Mama". It was clear to Walt at that point that Holly needed her Mum, brother and family more than she would need a millionaire kingpin on the run….ergo another Good act.
He's taking her I believe was another example of lashing out (which he is prone to do)and a denial of what has now happened – everything he has done this for(Family)has gone to c**p
Walt's not a good guy; that's implicit in the title, and you are correct, people will come to his defense because the story is greatly written that there's the proverbial flip side to every coin; here's my flip side to your thought's
(Walt's defense).
I think you understood Walt's motivation during his conversation with Skyler; Walt knows that the police were called, he asks Skyler if they are there. When Skyler says "No" he knows she's lying. Walt's already made the decision to disappear from his family for their own good. He yells at Skyler and threatens to kill her as a guise because he knows the police are listening and he wants her to appear to be a victim, as someone who has always feared for her life that way she can continue to be a parent to the kids and won't be viewed as an accomplice. He breaks down crying while doing so, because he knows that pushing them away is the only thing that will clear her name.
That said, I agree, his luck will run out.
Umm, yeah. That call was Walt deflecting blame away from Skylar, knowing that the police were listening in. How embarrassing for the author of this article.
Yah, you really missed the mark on the final act of that episode.
Walt's phone call to Skyler at the end of the episode was actually one of the more heroic things he's done lately – he knew the police were listening and provided Skyler with complete immunity from her involvement in Walt's business by making it appear that Walt had threatened and forced her into helping him. Of course, he wasn't entirely lying either; you have to imagine that a part of him does truly resent Skyler.
You missed the point completely on the phone call to Skyler. He was taking all the blame for their current situation. He knew the cops were listening and he was basically saying she was acting against her own will and following his orders, which, as we know was not the case.
Amazing this writer can be so clueless! Walter's phone call to Skyler was for her benefit, for his son's and wife's benefit! To take a stab at protecting her from the avalanche of DEA scrutiny soon to come.
You really let the point of that phone call slip over your head didn't you? Nothing he said was genuine. He knew the police were listening so he said all that stuff to make Skylar look completely blameless. In the call he took full responsibility for everything and made himself look like an abusive monster so that no one would blame her for going along with his actions while also saying she was trying to stop him the whole time. He also made a point of noting that Walt jr. only just found out. Even after she attacked him with a knife he was just protecting his family.
I actually kind of wondered if he assumed she lied to him about the police. He spent a lot of time taking full responsibility for everything. Then to say his taking Holly was her punishment just to leave her in a firetruck where they would obviously find her and return her due to the Amber alert.
He may have been just being a dick but I am curious about why he would give Holly back so soon after saying him having her was a punishment to Skylar.

2 For there were those who said, "With our sons and our daughters, we are many; let us get grain, that we may eat and keep alive." | 2 Some were saying, "We and our sons and daughters are numerous; in order for us to eat and stay alive, we must get grain." |
3 There were also those who said, "We are mortgaging our fields, our vineyards, and our houses to get grain because of the famine." | 3 Others were saying, "We are mortgaging our fields, our vineyards and our homes to get grain during the famine." |
4 And there were those who said, "We have borrowed money for the king's tax upon our fields and our vineyards. | 4 Still others were saying, "We have had to borrow money to pay the king's tax on our fields and vineyards. |
5 Now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children are as their children; yet we are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters have already been enslaved; but it is not in our power to help it, for other men have our fields and our vineyards." | 5 Although we are of the same flesh and blood as our countrymen and though our sons are as good as theirs, yet we have to subject our sons and daughters to slavery. Some of our daughters have already been enslaved, but we are powerless, because our fields and our vineyards belong to others." |

So are you generally a camping family?
I know at 2 and 11 months my kids dropped and slept anywhere, the 9 year old would likely enjoy the adventure and your 7 year old, I don't have a frame of reference as to how important his/her sleep rituals are.
Sometimes a needed vacation makes you overcome obstacles. Guess you won't know until you try.
The last I heard and it was a few years ago tents were not included in Free Dining but the cabins were. Might want to weight the cost difference between the cabins vs campsite and free dining.

SUBJECT: Hockey Helmet Certification and Life Span
Hockey Canada has endorsed that all hockey helmets sold in Canada be accompanied by a Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certification label. The CSA Technical Committee on Equipment and Facilities for Ice Hockey has recently sent out a memo clarifying each certification sticker accompanied on a hockey helmet.
Virtually all hockey helmets sold in Canada bear 3 stickers indicating third-party testing and certification of the helmet because of the need for manufacturers to meet the mandated standards within 3 jurisdictions. The certification marks include the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certification label which must appear on all helmets sold in Canada that are intended for use in ice hockey; the Hockey Equipment Certification Council (HECC) certification sticker which is mandatory for hockey helmets in the United States; and the European Union's required CE marker for hockey helmets intended for sale and use in Europe.
The sale of hockey helmets is regulated in Canada by Health Canada under the Hazardous Products Act. Hockey Canada, however, only permits the use of hockey helmets certified to CSA Standard Z262.1 for all players under its jurisdiction.
Some confusion has arisen over the HECC certification stickers on hockey helmets sold in Canada because they bear a time limit. This time limit is related only to the length of certification (originally 5 years but changed recently to 6.5 years) granted by HECC for a given helmet, and is not an indication of the life-span of a hockey helmet. HECC certified hockey helmets are mandated for players playing under the jurisdiction of USA Hockey. The HECC certification sticker does not apply in Canada. The only certification sticker that should be verified for play under the jurisdiction of Hockey Canada is the presence of the CSA certification label on the helmet.

Buffalo was the quintessential 19th Century boomtown. Its position at the western end of the Erie Canal made it the Gateway to the West - the departure point for immigrants on their way to the heartland. You can experience this history at the newly revived and restored Canalside. Buffalo was also one of the last stops on the Underground Railroad, a beacon for runaway slaves seeking freedom on the far side of the Niagara River. Battles were fought here, the city put to the torch by British loyalists during the War of 1812. Fortunes were made here by the likes of a young William G. Fargo, founder of American Express and Wells Fargo. A President was assassinated here - William McKinley at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition - and another inaugurated - Theodore Roosevelt at the Wilcox Mansion on the city's grand boulevard, Delaware Avenue. Buffalo also sent two of its sons - Millard Fillmore and Grover Cleveland -to Washington as Presidents.
Today, you can step back in time to the War of 1812 on the battlements of Old Fort Niagara; experience 19th century life on the Niagara Frontier at the Buffalo Niagara Heritage Village and Museum; travel 15 miles on the Erie Canal with the help of Lockport Locks and Erie Canal Cruises; tour the Civil War graves at beautiful Forest Lawn; explore Buffalo's pivotal role in America's rise to industrial preeminence at the Buffalo History Museum; or sample a real slice of Americana at the Colored Musician's Club where jazz legends like Louis Armstrong jammed. Presidential history buffs can even stand where Teddy Roosevelt stood when he took the oath of office at the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site or visit the Millard Fillmore House in historic East Aurora. And the kids are sure to love the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Military Park, the country's largest inland floating history museum. In between it all, stop in at Founding Fathers, a presidential-themed pub in a former 19th century livery.
History buffs will also be taken with the antique cars at the Buffalo Transportation/Pierce-Arrow Museum. Rich neighborhood history can be found at the Iron Island Museum. Dedicated to preserving the history of the Lovejoy District, the museum chronicles the railroad history, the schools and churches, and its military men and women. Nearby, you'll find the Chautauqua Institution, a National Historic Landmark, renowned for its Victorian architecture and summer-long cultural activity, and the Genesee Country Village and Museum, the largest collection of historic buildings in the eastern United States.

Amaretto soaked cherries dipped in white chocolate
November 25, 2012 in Uncategorized
Hello my cherries
This is a a great dinner party gift idea. When I go to dinner parties, I normally buy a box of choccies for the host, but I saw this idea on Pinterest & wanted to give it a try. It turned out really well, and was so easy to make, that I wanted to share it so that you could try it too. It's kinda-like a cherry liquer chocolate, but fresher & much nicer (I think)
- 1 punnet cherries
- Amaretto liquer
- 1 Bar white chocolate (buy the best you can afford)
- Wash the cherries (leave on the stalks), then cut a small cross at the bottom of the cherry – this will help the alcohol absorb. If you can de-pip the cherries, then do that. I wasn't really sure how to de-pip the things without destroying them, so I didn't do that part.
- Put the cherries in a bowl & cover with Amaretto – put these in the fridge for at least 12 hours, but 24 hours would be better.
- Once you've soaked the cherries for long enough, melt the chocolate in a double-boiler. Once melted, turn down the heat, but keep it on the heat, otherwise the chocolate will go all thick & lumpy
- When chocolate is melted, drain the cherries & pat dry.
- Dip each cherry in the melted chocolate, & then put on wax paper
- Once all cherries are done, you can put them in the fridge to set
- Once set, put in a pretty bowl or gift box
Now you're all set to amaze your host with your fabulousness

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's four-block-long building, located in Central Park, functions as a time capsule, preserving hundreds of thousands of paintings, sculptures, and artifacts that collectively demonstrate mankind's finest achievements. Founded in 1870 to bring fine art closer to the general public, the Museum has since become a means of exploring worldwide cultures through art.
With more than 400 galleries open to the public, seeing all the Museum has to offer is more of a lifetime achievement than an afternoon commitment. Paintings by preeminent artists such as Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh draw huge crowds, but unexpected treasures await those willing to dig deeper. One collection of galleries features the world?s most comprehensive collection of American paintings, sculpture, and decorative arts. Another, equally compelling?and newly reopened?collection is devoted to intricate Islamic artwork from as far westward as Spain and Morocco and as far eastward as Central Asia and India. It's also impossible to overlook the galleries of Egyptian art and its approximately 26,000 artifacts, making it the largest collection of its kind outside Cairo.
The Met?s collection is so expansive that it cannot fit entirely in its Fifth Avenue location. Travel to Fort Tryon Park in northern Manhattan, and you'll find the Museum's collection of reassembled cloisters, which opened to the public in 1938. These beautiful medieval structures currently house around 2,000 manuscripts, tapestries, and stained-glass artworks largely dating from the 12th century through the 15th century. Three of the cloisters even feature gardens planted in accordance with medieval tradition.
The frames at J. Reznik Studios don't just immortalize old photographs and new college diplomas; they also keep the memories of fallen heroes alive. As the studio's in-house artist, Jodi Reznik has eased the pain of lost loved ones for dozens of families?such as those of Suffolk County police officer Glen Ciano and NYPD officer Russel Timoshenko?by memorializing them with brush strokes on canvas. Equal parts frame shop, gallery, and conversation space, the studio beckons art lovers of all stripes to interact with Jodi and her husband, Jeff, while they browse her work or select a frame for an existing piece. Expert print makers also enlarge and emblazon images on paper and canvas to forge eye-catching photo gifts, and staffers specializing in flower preservation enshrine bouquets from weddings or punish daisies with unpaid gambling debts behind quality glass. J. Reznik Studios has impressed not only walk-in customers, but online clients as well, earning an 86% customer-approval rating from Groupon users.
In 1899, program directors at what is today's Brooklyn Children's Museum decided to transform an old family mansion into a museum geared toward children. Anna Billings Gallup headed up the first crew of curators, who transformed the space into the Brooklyn Children's Museum, the world's first youth-geared institution of its kind.
Today, the museum preserves Gallup's world-renowned passion for educating children along with more than 30,000 objet d'anthropology, from shark jawbones to tribal masks. Eight standing exhibits, a greenhouse, and a garden aim to entertain kids and families and include an exploration of world culture. The Sensory Room provides an interactive experience for special-needs children, with visual, auditory, and motor-skills-related activities. The museum also teaches future generations about sustainability with a curriculum based on the building's own inner workings, which are certified green by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.
Filling a need for a local space where artists share vision as well as physical area, Brooklyn Art Space houses much of the foundational equipment artists need to create their work without being forced to rent private studios. The loft offers many work-area options to its members such as a 4,000-square-foot shared studio space, semiprivate spaces, a gallery, and a writers' room. Each member is granted open access to equipment such as tables, easels, drying racks, and slop sinks, and can come and go as they wish 24 hours a day.
Alongside the working studio, artists teach workshops including a diverse lineup of classes that range from traditional 2-D painting and drawing courses to sewing and mixed-media projects. Reflecting the space's commitment to fostering a community of artists, the staff also holds frequent figure-drawing sessions, gallery shows, feedback forums, and an art-talk series.
Black & White Project Space is a non-profit art organization committed to production, presentation and promotion of innovative and audience-engaging site-specific installations otherwise in danger of under-representation. Black & White Project Space is tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

A biosimilar, as the name indicates, is similar to another biologic that has already been approved for use. In 2006, Sandoz received the first approval in the European Union for a biosimilar, Omnitrope®, a version of somatropin, or human growth hormone. The company subsequently received EU approval for a second biosimilar, Binocrit®, which is a version of epoetin alfa for regulating the formation of red blood cells. While Europe already has established a regulatory pathway for biosimilars, the U.S. remains engaged in discussions on draft guidance documents, definitions of study requirements, and intellectual property issues. Some industry analysts say that biosimilars can cost 20–25% less than the original product.

I have a million questions tonight ~ LOL ** sorry ..... :)
This time I'm asking about clippers . I made a post before about my 16 year old Anna being too old & antsy to get professionally done. The replies were great . This is my new concern - Here's Poppy ( again ! )
I Want to know about clippers. Boy - are they expensive ! I imagine they are a good investment if you do alot of grooming . Here's my questions : I have human hair clippers --- they won't even touch dog hair. Are dog clippers stronger / different ? Are there different blades for different type hair ? Do they stay sharp ? Are there adjustments for "length" ?
Thank you - everyone ! Kathy |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've used Andis clippers and the Oster Lucky Dog clippers. They're both the lower end of the brands and each had their faults. I ended up using the Oster for clipping the feet of my poodle and the Andis for body cuts. Both would heat up quickly so be sure to check the temp of the blades while you're trimming so that you don't burn the skin on your dog. No matter what brand you end up buying be sure to also purchase some spray coolant for your blades. I don't see the need to purchase professional clippers for your dogs since you'll probably just be grooming every 4-6 weeks. If I had to do it over again (my dogs have since passed) I'd purchase the 2 speed Andis. I was able to use Oster blades with my Andis but I'm not sure which size blades are compatible with the 2-speed Andis. Check out the link below and especially their info on Description/List of Blades, and the Breeds Blades Chart. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Clipper blades
I groom 2 standard poodles with an Andis clipper. YES, the dog clippers are different from human hair clippers. They're not even remotely comparable. Being cheapskates, we tried the human hair clippers on our poodle. You cannot trim hair off a poodle with a Conair! LOL! The dog clippers have sharper, sturdier blades, a rotary motor that actually cuts instead of just vibrating... The clipper is CHEAP if you use it to groom your dog rather than take her to the groomers. Poodles go every 6-8 weeks for around $75. The clipper pays for itself in around 2 grooming sessions. At the time my husband bought it, we were just taking care of the first poodle, so we bought one of the cheapest models available at groomersmall.com. Andis Pro Pet or something like that, one speed. It was around $90 and might have been on sale at the time. There is now a $60 Pro Animal model and a $90ish model at the low end. Now that we have 2 dogs and use the clipper regularly, I wouldn't hesitate to spend $150-200 on a clipper, but the one we bought has been fine. Ceramic blades are important; metal ones get too hot. The plastic guards that pop over the blades do not work on the thick curly poodle hair. So I bought a ceramic 3/4" which is the longest I could find, for allover the body. That was $25 or so and worth every penny. Professional groomers scissor all over for the lamb or sporting cuts, but I've done it both ways, and the clipper saves time and work for me on large areas. I then scissor the difficult areas like armpits, etc, to look just right. I use the #10 on the face and paws (very short). We haven't had to sharpen the blades yet after 3 years or so of clips of 2 large poodles every 8 weeks. But when we need to sharpen, we'll get them sharpened or (more likely) buy a sharpener. I also bought a good (but not high-end) grooming scissors, nail clippers, etc. It all pays for itself and is so much more convenient IMO than making an appointment with the groomer and waiting or shopping elsewhere for 3 hours till they're done. |

I have the Oster 2 speed for my two Bichons. I guess this clipper is the 3rd one I bought. I finally got tired of paying for the cheap ones and finally bit the bullet and got a good one. Yep, it was expensive, about $150.00 if I recall. Sounds like a lot doesn't it? Well, I think they charge from $30 to $40 dollars to groom Bichons in my area. Divide that into the price of the clipper and you'll see how inexpensive the clipper becomes. In 5 groomings (per dog!!) the clipper had easily paid for itself. I would never waste my time and money on the cheap ones. You won't be happy and the dog probably won't either. |

This occurred while attending a recent - and very campy - off-Broadway play* in New York City...
Picture a mother superior talking to a nun in distress. The nun from the Bronx moans and groans, overcome with difficulty facing her demons.
The mother superior leans over and with her slight accent to portray gravity and convey her status, she asks, "What is it you cahnt face?"
Of course, this is heard by all, including the nun as, "What is it you cunt face?"
At which point, the nun in distress freaks out -- as does most of the audience...!

Sounds like they're getting trained from the 'Divine' -- the prostitute based on Hollywood Blvd in L.A.

There have been a lot of rumors concerning the undead for the past few weeks. For instance, The Walking Dead writing staff being fired and then not. But on the other spectrum, from brain-dead zombies to vampires, there is the revamp (pun intended) of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Calling this a rumor may be going too far, but the film does not have a release date and is still in development, and I personally hope it stays in development hell.
I love Buffy, more the original movie than the series, but I respect both forms. To hear that someone wants to bring Buffy back made me want to light up a pitchfork and rile up an angry mob. I don't want to give it a chance, especially because Joss Whedon is not on board, nor is he happy.
So I started doing research. First I found out that the remake is a movie and not a show, so I'm not expecting any major character to appear from the television series. I'm okay with that because I'm not deeply attached to any of the secondary characters from the show. In fact, my favorite secondary character is played by Paul Reuben in the 90s film. Secondly, the script is written by a young woman who has only acting, no writing, credits on IMDB. Whit Anderson looks more like she belongs in front of the camera, instead of behind it, but if Buffy is going to be redone I'd rather it be done by a girl. I'm not saying that men can't create strong female characters (look at Ridley in Alien written by Dan O'Bannon) but I've heard Joss Whedon described as one's "best girlfriend," so he's not your typical male screenwriter. Third, there is barely anyone attached to this film. So far all you have is the writer and producers. No possible directors or actors have been announced. If you want more information about the film, try the article in Los Angeles Times.
So, for those freaking out like me over an upcoming Buffy movie, don't sharpen your stakes yet. This could still fall through. It took about twenty years for Lost Boys to have a sequel come out, not that the studio didn't try. This could be only one, at possibly numerous, attempts at bringing back one of the most badass vampire slayers in history. Take that Van Helsing and Blade!

You must not be giving enough away. I cannot leave mine in the ground year round but in my climate when I have an aggressive plant I dig all up and only leave one plant. What I would do is dig them all up except one in the middle and start collecting other Cannas and plant them in your canna bed. |
- Posted by cannacrazy 8 SC (My Page) on Mon, Aug 10, 09 at 0:19
I don't really consider cannas aggressive. I think of them more as prolific growers and I don't dig them unless I have homes for them...or another spot in my yard. There must be a way to thin without digging them all up?? Surely other canna gardeners eventually have to thin out their plants? |
Each rhizome makes 20 new eyes a year- more or less. This is why your Cannas seem to be "aggressive". They aren't, it's their nature... For future plantings, you may plant it in a big pot, which makes a border for the rhizomes, and put the whole pot in the ground. |
- Posted by cannacrazy 8 SC (My Page) on Thu, Aug 13, 09 at 21:29
I never thought about each rhizome making that many cannas. I guess that explains why I never seem to give away enough plants! You offer a great suggestion for controlling the plants and I may try that. I love my cannas but I can't control the leaf rollers when they are this crowded. Looks like I'll be doing a lot of digging before next spring! |
Good luck! :-) |
I don't like the way that canna in the pot looks! I JUST read about yellow mottle virus and wonder if that has it? As I said, I am new to this, but it sure looks bad to me. I would move it away till you are sure. |
Okay... now that I scared you, I was thinking of the virus that is attacking the Dahlia's. Looks just like what happens to them. Any idea why the leaves have those yellow lines in that Canna? Is it normal for some of them to have leaves like that? Sorry for the confusion. :c( |
I see it affects canna's too. :c( Better look into it to be safe! It spreads by insects and by using an infected tool on a healthy plant. |

This has nothing to do with your question...but, I love your garden....it's so full. You picked some great companion plants as well...good job! :O) |
I used to reduce every two years. I would just keep 1/3 of my yeild and hand out the rest... Beside that, it looks beautiful. |
- Posted by wanna_run_faster 8, 9 and 10 Florida (My Page) on Tue, Jun 22, 10 at 15:45
Yes, I agree with the others--your canna garden is beautiful! |
- Posted by tropicalzone7 7 (My Page) on Tue, Jun 22, 10 at 17:02
I also agree. you have a beautiful clump of cannas! Very tall and full and I think they look great. Eventually you can move some offsets and start them somewhere else in your yard but I dont think they look crowded at all now. |
All of my cannas were hand me downs, and are in enclosed beds or pots. I dig out half each year, and either give them away to anyone who will take them :) or donate to the local garden club for their annual sale. I'd take donations from anyone who needs to thin!!!!! |
- Posted by jonijumpup z5, GR MI (My Page) on Mon, Oct 25, 10 at 9:48
There was a comment or two about growing Canna in pots to control their aggressive behavior. I have found that the large leaf types will split pots because the rhizomes grow so big. |

Is Process Killing the Software Industry?
Passion isn't important (460 comments)
Passion isn't important. Cost and risk are important. The processes are put in place to (attempt) to minimize cost and risk associated with software development. Experience teaches us that cost and risk are very high when building software.
When it's your money paying for the development effort, feel free to structure it so that you can chase your passion.
I sympathize with the idea that this kind of bureaucracy can suck the life out of developers, but guys, this is work. If it were that fun, they wouldn't have to pay you to do it.

ECB CEO pays tribute to Mike Denness OBE
ECB Chief Executive David Collier today paid tribute to the former England captain Mike Denness OBE whose death at the age of 72 was announced earlier today.
Denness, who captained England in 19 Test matches, was a stylish right-handed batsman who scored more than 25,000 runs in a lengthy first-class career which saw him lead Kent to six domestic trophy wins and also win two competitions as a player with Essex.
The first Scotsman ever to captain England, he played 28 Test matches in all and also led England as the host nation in the inaugural Cricket World Cup in 1975.
After retiring from cricket in 1980, he subsequently fulfilled a variety of roles within cricket including spells as an ICC Match Referee, an ECB Pitch Liaison Officer and more recently as President of Kent County Cricket Club. Earlier this year, he was awarded an OBE in the New Year's Honours List.
ECB Chief Executive David Collier said: "Mike was a man who gave so much to our game in so many different ways as a player, captain, match referee and administrator. I had the honour of working with Mike in my first role in cricket administration at Essex and Mike was a wonderful source of advice and knowledge. He will be sorely missed by all - especially by everyone at Kent.
"All at ECB were delighted to see him receive national recognition for his service to cricket in the recent New Year's Honours list and we send our condolences today to his partner Doreen, immediate family and all his many friends within the first-class game."

Wireframes to mockups with Fireworks
Wireframes are a simple and effective technique for exploring your layout options and demonstrating your concepts to clients
04 Analyse your navigation
Once you've sketched in your header content, it's important to think about multiple levels of navigation. This will be largely dictated by your site map as to how many you will need. In this case our website will need a second level of navigation for the different menus and offers, so add to your sketch.
05 Important elements
From our prioritised list in step two we can identify that the most important elements are: where the restaurant is, what the phone number is for takeaways and show them how great the food is. So add a box for each of the elements to the sketch, in an easy-to-spot location just under the navigation.
06 Calls to action
Now we are going to add in the calls to action that we identified in step two. From the aims and objectives in step one it's clear that 'Order Take Away', 'Book Table' and 'See Special Offers' are clear calls to action, so you'll need to add each of them to the sketch, in any order that you see fit.
07 Add interactive elements
Back in step one we identified that we would have a rotating banner as an interactive element. So in the placeholder for the food picture that we added in step five, change that to a rotating banner for offers and dishes. Then split the location box into a Google map and address.

BioMed Realty Trust and BIND Biosciences Sign New Lease at Vassar Street Property
Recently Redeveloped Property in the Cambridgeport Submarket is Now 100% Leased
SAN DIEGO, July 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BMR) announced today the signing of a new lease with BIND Biosciences, Inc. at its Vassar Street property located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. BIND Biosciences, a biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutic targeted nanoparticles to produce best-in-class drugs, will occupy approximately 32,800 square feet of laboratory and office space.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20091005/BIOMEDLOGO)
The Vassar Street property, a two-story laboratory and office facility comprising approximately 61,000 rentable square feet, is located within close proximity to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology campus and numerous foundations and research institutes, as well as the company's properties on Sidney Street and Erie Street, currently leased to Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The building began a full redevelopment starting in July 2010 to incorporate BioMed's Universal Flex Lab™ system that enhances tenant fit-out flexibility by allowing laboratory space, offices and meeting rooms to be installed and reconfigured quickly, thereby maximizing productivity and space utilization. BIND Biosciences will join Epizyme, Inc. and Sun Catalytix Corporation at the Vassar Street facility, which is now 100% leased.
"We are very pleased to become part of the dynamic Cambridge life science community and join BioMed Realty's local biotechnology tenants that include such world-leading companies as Sanofi, Pfizer and Metabolix," said Scott Minick, President and Chief Executive Officer of BIND. "With the combination of the newly redeveloped Vassar Street facility and our partnership with BioMed, with their intimate understanding of the needs of life science companies, we found the ideal opportunity to fully leverage our Medicinal Nanoengineering® platform to develop and commercialize our best-in-class targeted therapeutics."
Alan D. Gold, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BioMed, remarked, "We welcome BIND Biosciences to Vassar Street and the vibrant Cambridgeport life science submarket. The company's co-founders and leaders, Dr. Robert Langer of MIT, Dr. Omid Farokhzad of Harvard, and Scott Minick, CEO, have quickly positioned BIND as a leader in the emerging field of nanomedicine. The newly redeveloped and redesigned Vassar Street facility will be the ideal home for BIND to pursue its pioneering research in nanomedicine and deploy their proprietary Medicinal Nanoengineerin® platform to accelerate targeted drug development."
