I've been dwelling on the concept of male spaces for the last day or so (and intend to keep it on my mind for a while), and I came up with an idea concerning the gamer/PUA community that's a bit counterintuitive, but I think probably on target.
When some people think of PUA and game communities, writers, and practitioners, they write them off as "pussy-beggars" or overly obsessed with women. However, it occurred to me that the seduction and game communities are about as overwhelmingly male as they get. There is not one single female who has the slightest bit of credibility as a PUA (For obvious reasons), and I think this explains a good part of the allure of the culture.
PUA/Game is a re-emergence of the hunter/warrior societies of the past, and brings men together in a common purpose. Not all men approve of the purpose, but there's no doubt that it's an overwhelmingly male endeavor, in which men cooperate and compete to achieve a goal.
As much as some deplore the results of successful Game, there's an astonishing level of altruism amongst the proponents and adherents. There's nothing men compete for and fight over more than women, but here we have a community of men helping each other in the pursuit of finding satisfaction with a female. I would suggest that men see it for what it is, and take heart in the fact that even when stripped of all legal privileges and placed in a socially subordinate position, men band together and help each other achieve their goals.

First off i should say i'm not much of a carpenter. I can do basic stuff, but never tackled anything like windows. I have a 50 year old house that has wooden windows. I blew in insulation in the walls and attic last year. This year i would like to replace the windows, myself. Hopefully next year, vinyl siding.
I've been trying to do as much reading as i can on this topic but i'm not sure what type of windows i would need. Replacement windows or pocket windows? I really don't want to tear everything up to put in new construction windows, but if that would be the best way to go, i would consider it. How much more work is involved from pocket windows to replacement windows? Is there any other type that doesn't require alot of experience to replace? I plan on doing it myself, so it would have to be fairly easy. I was also going to try to go with windows from my local Menards. Put it on the card to make it easier. Crestline, Jeld-Wen, Pella. I know Pella is good, but the others are not so great. Average priced windows is what i'm looking for i guess. I do hopefully want to replace a couple of the double hung windows with sliders. I as guessing i would have to enlarge the opening in the wall for that. My neighbor just had some contractors replace all their double hung windows with Elite 4000 sliders. Looks great. Just trying to look for some direction. Thanks in advance for any input. Jerry. |

If tying the knot on unfamiliar ground seems too difficult, think again. According to travel agents like Patsy Martin of Strong Travel Services in Dallas, celebrating a wedding in Maui can actually be easier and less costly than throwing one at a hotel down the road. "It was almost unheard-of a decade ago," says Martin, who booked her first Scottish castle wedding in the early nineties. "Now destination weddings are a big part of our business, especially with second marriages and slightly older couples." Of course, hauling your guests to distant shores can be tricky, so to alleviate the stress, we've done all the research. The following hotels and wedding planners in eight top locations can arrange anything from a small vow-renewal ceremony to a black-tie affair for a full entourage. And for the honeymoon, T+L teamed up with AOL and asked their subscribers what it takes to turn a typical trip into a sexy escape.
The Caribbean
THE SETTING Puerto Rico's Hyatt Dorado Beach Resort & Country Club (800/633-7313 or 787/796-1234; www.hyatt.com; doubles from $445*), a former grapefruit-and-coconut plantation, holds ceremonies on its oceanfront lawn before taking the party indoors to the old world-style restaurant Salon del Mar, where a wall of glass looks out to frothy waves. • At the Ocean Club (800/321-3000 or 242/363-2000; www.oceanclub.com; doubles from $695) on Paradise Island in the Bahamas (technically in the Atlantic, not the Caribbean), weddings are held beneath the arches of a reassembled 12th-century Augustinian cloister from France that overlooks Nassau Harbor. The bed linens are Frette; the meal is Jean-Georges; the golf course, Tom Weiskopf. THE EXPERT The consultants at the Wedding Experience (877/580-3556 or 305/421-1260; www.theweddingexperience.com) can handle the details of any island fête, whether it's held on the heart-shaped beach at Megan's Bay on St. Thomas or in a villa near the waterfalls of St. Lucia. THE ICING If you have a PADI certification, contact a luxury diving-vacation consultant at Travelwizard.com (800/330-8820; www.travelwizard.com) to arrange a honeymoon suite at a diving resort, or a private yacht tour of the British Virgin Islands for the whole posse—with an instructor and a chef on board. THE FINE PRINT Some islands let couples wed the day they arrive, but others have waiting periods and residency requirements. Contact the department of tourism on your island for guidelines. The best information is at www.theweddingexperience.com/legal.html, or call the U.S. government's Overseas Citi-zens Services (202/647-5225).
THE SETTING At the Château de Bagnols (33-4/74-71-40-00; www.bagnols.com; $15,000 per night for up to 49 guests), an estate in the green hills of Beaujolais, weddings begin with a rehearsal dinner for up to 120 in the 18th-century wine cellar. On the nuptial day, the bride and groom walk to the village church accompanied by musicians, then return to the château for dinner and dancing. • If a pair of swans gliding on a shimmering pond is your idea of wedding guests, consider the Domaine des Hauts-de-Loire (33-2/54-20-72-57; www.domainehautsloire.com; doubles from $111; opens mid-February), a Loire Valley hunting lodge built in 1860 in a private park. THE EXPERT On the Côte d'Azur, Grand Luxe Weddings International (800/319-4555; www.grandluxeweddings.com) will arrange a ceremony in Cap Ferrat, overlooking the Mediterranean; or in a 16th-century chapel in Aix-en-Provence. Although based in the States, they'll attend to all the details in person. THE ICING Continue your toasting by visiting the vineyards of Moët & Chandon, Taittinger, Roederer, and Veuve Clicquot, in Reims, 80 miles northeast of Paris. Most kings of France from Clovis I onward were crowned in the town's cathedral, built in A.D. 496; nearby is Gérard Boyer's Boyer Les Crayères (33-3/26-82-80-80; www.gerardboyer.com; doubles from $257), ranked the number-one hotel in T+L's 2002 World's Best Awards. THE FINE PRINT A 40-day residency period is required to marry in France: for legal details, see www.usmarriagelaws.com. Americans often have "blessing ceremonies" or bring their own officiant from the States. Grand Luxe Weddings works with a nondenominational minister in Europe who can travel to any location.

Space Dyed Ruffle Top Knee Socks
Skinny space dyed stripes topped with soft ruffles that go over some knees and just up to others.
Label says the feet fit US women's shoe size 4-10 (up to a men's 8), but we think they'll be a bit big for feet smaller than a women's size six.
Very snugly but comfortably fit calves up to 17 inches, but we thought the top cuff was too snug when stretched over 14 inches.
About 18 inches from heel to top of cuff, they didn't want to go over most of our knees.
Additional Info:
Space dyed socks come out in random & unique patterns, each & every sock made this way is a unique individual who may or may not match the other sock in the pair perfectly, if at all, they're just crazy like that.
Made in China.

I have no idea what it's like in other places, but the plots in the one I belong to are 14'x29' |
- Posted by habitat_gardener z9 CA/Sunset15 (My Page) on Tue, May 2, 06 at 1:27
Plots are variable in size here, ranging from about 100 square feet to 1000. Average is around 300. I'd suggest looking at your total area, then figuring out how many gardeners you want to accommodate (and don't forget about path area, composting, community gathering place, recycling area, etc.). We have one site that is 2.5 acres and has about 150 garden plots. Another important factor is the goal of the garden: is it about giving access to land, or about creating community? Plan for some community gathering spaces if you want to build community and get the wider community involved as advocates and for goodwill. A couple good websites to investigate are the Amer. Community Gardening Assn. and Vancouver's city farmer site, www.cityfarmer.org/ |
- Posted by plainjane40 z8/9TX (My Page) on Tue, May 9, 06 at 0:32
In Austin, at Sunshine Community Gardens, we have two plot sizes: 20x20 and 10x20. The larger plot requires a serious commitment and consistent maintenance. You should come up to Austin and have a look around. We're near 45th and Lamar, right next to the state health department. |
The things you should consider are things that you would never have to consider if people were decent and honest. Security. * Clearly labeled plots assigned to certain people. I know it shouldn't feel like prison, but it should also be clear that borrowing soil, plants, and harvest from other plots is strictly forbidden and will result in prosecution. Unless I had people backing me up and willing to enforce this, I would never setup a community garden based on the horror stories I've read. |
- Posted by vicki_vale z6 NY (My Page) on Tue, Oct 17, 06 at 16:08
The plots in our urban garden are about 4' x 25' long. There are now so many families involved that they have been subdivided into 4' x 12' long "half"-plots. And still, for some folks it is still too much to manage. |
We are just setting up our new community garden and making our raised beds 4' x 12' each. Initially we thought we'd give everyone two of those beds, but now we're having second thoughts because our land area is so small that it would seriously cut down the number of members we can have. 4x12' doesn't seem like much to offer, but I'm glad to hear vicki_vale say that even that size is too much for some people to handle. I suppose she probably means beginning gardeners, of which we will have a few. What I wouldn't give for "several acres to develop!" Bagins, you are so lucky! |
- Posted by bex10023 New York City (email@example.com) on Sun, Apr 1, 07 at 17:11
I have just joined a garden in NYC where the plot sizes range from 5x12, 4x12 and 3.5x7. While I was hoping to grow tomatoes, cukes, green beans, and some small (trellised) melons I will need to be creative with intensive planting to fit on our 3.5x7 plot. I dream of having a 4x25 plot! While we realize that there is no way to please everyone being new to this garden seems to have left us on the short end of square footage. I applaud the gardens that have managed more consistency in sizes. |

Here in philly at Benjamin rush community gardens the plots are all 30 x 30 and you really can get a bunch of them and have a even bigger plot. |
Our plots are 20 x 20 feet. We have a couple large areas that are tilled each spring, so having a regular grid to lay out makes things easier. We also have some no-till organic areas, also 20 x 20. People can apply for up to 4 plots (down from 6 previously as we had so many interested in gardening) but they have to work their way up by being good gardening citizens. |

I just joined a community garden, and the plots are 10x10 feet. I'm a longtime gardener, but have never been able to have a vegetable garden because of lack of sun, so I'm excited. Previously, I tucked vegetables wherever I thought they might thrive - a tomato here, a pepper there, and so on. |
- Posted by pdxwindjammer (My Page) on Tue, Mar 30, 10 at 14:26
Joann, sounds like you and I are in a similar situation. For years I have struggled with trying to grow tomatoes in the sunniest part of my garden, which only gets 5-6 hours of any kind of sun a day. We have many community gardens in our area but the wait lists are years long. Luckily, I found out about a new one going in just 1 1/2 miles from my house and there is about a 90% chance that I will get a plot! I have to because I have so many tomato and pepper plants started and I need a place to plant them! These plots will be 12x12 and cost only $20 per year! Yippeeee! |
- Posted by oregonwoodsmoke 5 OR (My Page) on Sat, Dec 18, 10 at 14:58
If there is lots of land, I'd still go for smallish plots and then let gardeners take more than one plot, with the understanding that their long term rights are limited to one plot and you can take back the excess if more people apply for a plot or they can't maintain all the land. I think that 10 X 10 is about all the garden that most beginners can handle. From what I've seen that much can overwhelm most folks who go into it without any idea of the amount of labor involved. |
Our housing complex has its own community garden on the property. We have ten plots, and a couple half plots. The full are about 9x9 feet and the halves are at the ends. The overall garden space is an odd shaped thing but we make it work. The plot next to me was supposed to have been taken but May long weekend came and went and still no action. I talked to the head garden lady, another tenant, about the weeds which were very tall and about to set seed and spread. She said that for cleaning the plot of weeds my daughters and I could use it this year so they could grow something of their choice. (flowers for one, strawberries for the other. Pickling cukes and a paste tomato for me.) One nose got out of joint but this person's nose is always out of joint over something so nobody cared. It's all good. :D |

We worked on filling them with soil today and will have a deer fence put up next week I hope and then we should be ready to take applications and get planting! Joann |
Here along the shoreline of CT, we have a community garden which is 20x20 for $25. Last yr, for the first time, I shared this plot w/a friend. I found that there was always something more I wanted to grow in my space so this yr I am in the plot alone. I also found that by the end of summer most had enough of gardening and everyone was donating their crop the local food pantry. |
All of the community gardens near me generally offer 10'x20' or 20'x20'. |

My plot is 4' by 40' and I am learning to go vertical! what a blast! |
Our community garden plots are 10'x50' or 23'x10 about $25 or $15 for a six month lease. They come tilled and there is a spigot for everyone to use. --- |
mmmm, in the UK, we have allotments which are leased by the local council. These plots of land are enshrined in legal statute (they became part of parish law in the 19C - there were 3 million but are now only 300,000 in the UK) and have a specific measurement based on rods (or poles or perches - a very ancianr system. A rod is 5.5 metres. Allotments are 10 rods - 5.5 metres x 55 metres or 6 yards x 60 yards or 1/8 of an acre. Councils can lease half or even quarter plots. I have 2 or 1/4 acre for around $50 a year. |
I have plots in two urban community gardens in Milwaukee, WI and both are 4X8 raised beds. Seems to be a standard here, in the city limits. |
At my CG the plots are 20x25 = 500 sqft.. $40 per plot, 2 plot maximum. We have a brick garden shed, w/electricity aka frig, and flush toilets, w/water spigots through out. |

At Morgan Springs Community Garden in Bennington, VT our gardens are 10 x 10 with no limit on number you can have. Our garden is small and no waiting list. Prior years tenant gets first dibs on keeping their plot before it is turned over to a new tenant. The charge is 20 a year. |

29-year-old Miranda was snapped without hers in New York last week, and a friend of the couple told Famous magazine that their relationship could be on the rocks.
"[Miranda and Orlando's marriage] might be in trouble," they said.
"She's not wearing her ring, and she's had a lot on her plate — it could be that somewhere along the way her relationship with Orlando may have slipped between the cracks," said the friend.
But Miranda's new rep, Annie Kelly, has denied the claims. "There is absolutely no truth in the headline or story," she said.
The duo, who announced they had married on 22 June 2010 (just one day after announcing their engagement) have been dating since 2007.
They have one child together — 18-month-old Flynn.

AT&T To Buy T-Mobile For $39 Billion
Can we get those t-mobile rates tho?
As anyone who has read a tech blog in the past few years will know, AT&T has been under attack for not being able to match the network capacity of larger rival Verizon. And when they won the majority of the bids for the open spectrum in 2008, Verizon also had a clear path to the future. Now AT&T is taking another path: buying T-Mobile.
Here's the release with the details of the deal. AT&T will pay roughly $39 billion to Deutsche Telekom for T-Mobile USA. Deutsche Telekom will also get a roughly 8 percent ownership stake in AT&T as a result of the deal. And a Deutsche Telekom executive will join AT&T's Board.
With the deal, AT&T will get access to T-Mobile's roughly 35 million customers. If the two fully merge, this will push AT&T far past Verizon in terms of subscriber numbers. Currently, Verizon has about 100 million subscribers in the U.S., while AT&T has about 95 million. This deal will also leave Sprint as the lone large outsider, with about 50 million subscribers.
The agreement has already been approved by both Boards, but obviously will have to pass government scrutiny.
Here are AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson's key quotes from the release:
"This transaction represents a major commitment to strengthen and expand critical infrastructure for our nation's future. It will improve network quality, and it will bring advanced LTE capabilities to more than 294 million people. Mobile broadband networks drive economic opportunity everywhere, and they enable the expanding high-tech ecosystem that includes device makers, cloud and content providers, app developers, customers, and more. During the past few years, America's high-tech industry has delivered innovation at unprecedented speed, and this combination will accelerate its continued growth."

There are so many worthwhile things in the exhibit that it's impossible to even mention all the standouts, let alone to account for every artist who's been included. Don't miss the fanatically detailed renderings of fish by Geoffrey Ridge, or the feathery landscapes by Joellyn Duesberry, including a wonderful floor screen. Also compelling are the sublime color-field abstractions by Colorado masters David Yust and Mark Dickson.
Suffice it to say, there are enough reasons to make the arduous trip to Colorado Springs to catch Open Press LTD: A 15-Year Retrospective at CGA. It does seem strange, however -- and a little telling -- that we have to travel out of town to celebrate this Denver institution.
Group Show 2
Through October 15, Studio Aiello, 3656 Walnut Street, 303-297-8166
The other intriguing group presentation on display has the straightforward title of Group Show 2, and it's at Studio Aiello, north of downtown. As the title indicates, this is the second in a series; the first was the gallery's grand opening two years ago.
Group Show 2 is a juried event; Kathy Andrews, director of the Center for Visual Art, is the sole juror. Andrews has crafted a wide-ranging exhibit that includes almost every medium imaginable. And unlike many juried shows, it has a number of established artists along with the expected neophytes. The explanation? The top prizes were future exhibition slots at Studio Aiello. The three winners are: Tsehai Johnson for 3-D media, Mark Brasuell for 2-D media, and Tim Berg for new media.
The exhibit handsomely fills all three of the large galleries that make up Studio Aiello. As viewers enter the first space, they can't help but notice Morgan Barnes's totemic sculpture, "Evolution of Form & Concept #2." The kinetic metal sculpture, which has been quirkily patinated with rusted polka dots, is a rocking stele that chimes when it moves. It's really great and fairly original. The form is deadly serious, but the dots and the sounds make it pretty funny, too.
Another notable thing in this first section is Jeff Strahl's "Brussels," a C-print that has a double image of a woman confined in an art nouveau border. The colors -- the yellow flowers against the purple-pink background -- and the repetitive composition mark the piece as an example of neo-pop, which is all the rage right now. It really does look very contemporary.
Around the corner is another sharp work with a thoroughly contemporary look: Susan Berkley's "Safety Zone," a constructivist painting with a modulated yellow bar running across a white field. The composition is utterly simple, but the brushwork and the revealed under-painting are positively baroque. (Studio Aiello is a huge place, so it's strange that this large painting has been crammed into the corridor while smaller pieces that aren't nearly as good are given lots of room to breathe.)
In the center gallery, there are two eye-popping installations placed just inside the entry. On the floor is Chris Walla's "Nothing to Say," a pile of wood and plaster shapes that look like the caption bubbles used in comic strips. (Walla is one of the only artists in the show who is not from Colorado.) The pieces are painted with all-over patterns and have no words on them, referring back to the title. On the wall that runs down the center of the room is award-winner Johnson's "Field #2," made of porcelain and feathers. Johnson has cast shapes that are evocative of penises and then trimmed them with feathers, which makes the shapes even more obscene-looking. Around the corner is a pair of enormous black, gray and white abstract paintings by the second award-winner, Brasuell.
Finally, the last section includes the work of two emerging artists, Justin Simoni and Agnes Kunz Vigil, both of whom are doing photography, but each to very different ends. Simoni's "Pins, Seattle" is a process piece that documents tiny straight-pin sculptures that he erected on a trip from Denver to Seattle. Ready or not, Simoni and many of his fellow young artists are out to prove that the '70s are back with a vengeance. Vigil's color photos of goldfish and eggshells are a lot more poetic, but they look '70s, too. Right at the end of the show is the last of the award-winners' pieces: Berg's loop of a split screen, with a skeet launcher on one side and a skeet catcher on the other.
Group Show 2 is uneven, but it's surprisingly good-looking, considering that it's juried. And, like the Open Press event, it provides a chance to take in the recent creations of some of the area's most interesting artists -- in one fell swoop.

Glenn Morshower is most widely known as playing the character Aaron Pierce on the TV show 24. He has also been seen in the first three Transformer movies, Moneyball, X-Men First Class, Parkland, Black Hawk Down and Star Trek: Generations. He has been a guest or recurring guest on TV shows such as the West Wing, Dallas, Castle, Army Wives, Friday Night Lights and Hawaii Five-O and most recently Law and Order. He has appeared in nearly 200 different TV shows and movies over the past 30 years, along with voicing several very popular video games and animated series. Glenn has a very recognizable face and voice, but most people can't quite seem to place him. And yet they know him. That actually works to his advantage.
What most people are surprised to learn is that he has been giving motivational talks around the country for the past 25 years called "The Extra Mile." When you hear him speak and if you get to know him personally, you will soon learn that he walks his talk. He does go the Extra Mile in every aspect ofhis life.While Glenn has appeared in many feature TV shows and movies with some of the biggest stars in the business, you discover that he is very down to earth, approachable, and loves the life he leads and wants everyone to find that same joy in their own life.

Bought this in Grazie. Colour is sheer but is noticeable on my lips. Feels very nice & I like the smell too, kinda berry-scented. The only thing is it doesn't last long so need to re-apply often.

I love this product because it isn't very sheer, it looks like lipstick but is way more moisturizing and blend able! I bought it at ULTA for about 4 dollars and I will certainly be going back for another!

This lip balm is very pigmented and light, but compared to my regular Chapstick lipbalm this lipbalm isn't as smooth. It also has a strong cherry scent and a slight taste which I don't really like. But overall it's pretty good, I just rather wear lipstick though.

I like the sheer color, and I wish they had a bigger selection, but if I recall they don't have SPF so I'm going to try Neutrogena's Revitalizing Lip Balm next.

Overall, I am really pleased with this product. I bought four of these at Ulta for $2.99 ea (they ring up at $3.99 but I insisted they honor the price tag). I only give them a four because a couple of the shades look horrid on me. The colors that work on me are fabulous. Grazie is my favorite, it is a sheer pinkish-red. Obrigado works well too, it is a sheer reddish hue. I don't care for Asante, a deep pinkish color. It almost looks opaque on me - it looks like the consistency of the old Maybelline Shine Free lipsticks (if you are old enough to remember those in the purple packaging). I also don't care for Shukran, which is an orangey-peach-pink. It too, looks opaque on me and doesn't enhance my natural lip tone.

My HG lip balm!!! These are so much better than any tinted lip balm I've ever used! Great sheer color, smell, taste, and of course, moisture! (No SPF so I use them every day except for the beach, pool, etc...I use Nivea Kiss of Cherry SPF 10). They have a huge variety of colors (the names are Thank You in different languages). I purchased Spasibo (nude) and Obrigado (red) and I love them both. $3 at Ulta. They had a 40% off sale so I regret not buying more :( I hate Maybelline Baby Lips and find these to be far superior and w/ sturdier packaging. I wouldn't compare these to Revlon Lip Butters (which I also love, but consider to be a lipstick). Next time I go to Ulta I'm picking up more colors!

Overall this is a great buy. The price is great and the packaging is also great. This is a true lip balm that happens to have a bit of color. It moisturizes well, and it isnt sticky at all. Like another reviewer mentioned, you don't need to look in a mirror to put this on, so it's good to use on the fly. I do want to mention that it does seem to have a matte finish, which doesn't bother me at all as it is a lip balm and not a gloss.

Best lip product I've ever purchased. I bought this in the color called "grazie" which seems to be a pretty standard slightly pinkish red. It's almost exactly like cherry chapstick but with 5x the color, which is perfect. You can apply just a little to have a sheer color, or you can apply more and the color really shows. Tinted balms usually don't pop enough for my taste, but this is great. If you're willing to apply a slightly thick coat, you can wear this instead of lipstick and get basically the same color affect.

So cheap and so awesome. These give you a slight pigment and are moisturizing. They are slightly scented too, so they are enjoyable to wear. They don't have a taste or anything, so they aren't annoying as I don't like flavored balms and they are cheap (under $3). I like these as they give you a pretty good lip stain without looking too strong like a gloss or lipstick. Will purchase more of these in the future.

I will preface this statement by saying that I respect an, artist's right to be silent if they so choose. It is not my place, even as a publisher to speak for the artists I work with or about various aspects of their work that are beyond my control. For those matters, I will simply defer to the artist, and respect their reasoning for making the decisions they do.
Because of that I will only make this statement: As far as I know, Tessa Stone is absolutely fine.
I do not feel it is my place to make any statements beyond that.

I was going to say "AGAIN?", but then I noticed they're buckyCUBES.
Sorry for being negative, but cubes are much less fun than balls. Will be skipping this one as can think of much less shapes I can make with these. Zen Balls all the way!

Square is the new round. Incidentally, making them into the original cube shape they shipped in will be substantially less difficult.
Looks like it would be fun to keep in the office for when you get bored just hope no1 puts em too close to your computer.
Now you can shut it with the two for tuesday comments.
In case you aren't very creative with the Buckycubes, here's a demo video!
$24.95 for one set direct from the manufacturer. https://www.getbuckyballs.com/order/buckycubes Not a bad woot here for two sets.
This appeals to my regular polyhedron fetish.

It never was difficult. It just takes skill!
My wife has already said several times that she will kill me if I buy any more magnets... as much as I'd love it get some, I have to pass.
What, no more Buckyballs?
Rare earth vs. not so rare earth magnets - anyone? Not too clear on this...
What are the dimensions of a Bucky Cube? Quarter Inch??
How powerful are these?
I dunno... square balls... hmmmmm
2 for Tuesday? More like 250 FOR TUESDAY!
I like how the buckycubes come together to form a large cube. I have always felt that buckyballs, when combined, should form a larger ball. But alas, no.
I got the 2 pack - Buckyballs last year and I love them, great desk toy.
nthitz wrote:nvm I didn't realize this was a two pack
That's 5 cents cheaper for only ONE set, though. This has a whole second set for only 5 cents more (plus $5 shipping, of course).
Looks like a Rubik's Cube with no possible solution. I would go insane.
Woot!'s description was painful to read.
What are the dimentions of the cubes and are they the high powered magets or the normal crap???
Pfft. These are like Buckyballs for babies. Metaphorical babies, of course.

Is this like how Apple releases a new iPhone that's just like the old one, except it's .0000025% thinner, and thus makes it a "revolutionary game changer"? Spheres to cubes? Heck, even the Fushigi added a feature in glow in the dark :P.

I'm a poor college student. That means I can justify buying one pointlessly fun set of magnet cubes, but not two.
i've got lots of sets of buckyballs, and thousands of zen magnets (kept away from each other, of course). i'm waiting to see what happens when i mix 125 buckyballs with 125 buckycubes. thoughts? in for 2.
Judging by the size of these, they need to have a 20 for Tuesday just to get any joy out of them. Man, they're small.

In high school, I participated in a large-scale competitive festival of performances by high school drama clubs. This was not the beginning of my interest in theatre-making but it was a turning point for me. The production process was so intense that it was not until I had graduated college and moved to Poland to work with a professional experimental ensemble that I found something to match it.
My high school, Cambridge Rindge & Latin School, was a participant in the Massachusetts High School Drama Guild Festival, which we simply called "Festival." I remember the competition rules exactly: Each high school sent a forty-minute production to compete. Five minutes were allowed for set-up and for strike. These time limits were strictly enforced and exceeding them meant disqualification. I remember practicing one year, over and over, to ensure the set-up of a fairly massive stage design in under five minutes. Putting up the set was as precisely choreographed as the show itself.
There were three rounds of competition in Massachusetts. The preliminary round took place among schools in neighboring towns. From each of these sets of eight productions, three were sent on to semi-finals, which could be anywhere in the state. The final round took place at the Dorothy Quincy Suite in downtown Boston, with fifteen schools performing. Of these, two schools would be selected state winners and would travel to the New England Drama Festival, which brought together the winners from the all the regional states.
I remember the year we won. We took a bus up to Vermont (or was it New Hampshire?) and stayed all in a hotel. Coming from an urban public school, this was an incredible experience for us. Also, keep in mind that this would be the fourth round of performance for that particular production, an adaptation of Ionesco's Jeux de Massacre (The Killing Game) directed by our extraordinary teacher, Gerry Speca. The show had already been performed at prelims, semis, and finals, winning every time. Each round was separated by some weeks, during which we could rehearse and revise the show. This stretched the process out to several months. How often does this kind of "workshopping" occur at the high school level?
There is plenty of information online about this extraordinary Festival. There is even a comedy by John Wells called Competition Piece that was sometimes performed in the festival itself as the ultimate "in" joke. For a great sense of what festival was like, watch the trailer to my friend Jim Isler's documentary about Maine's version of Festival.
I was thinking about Festival recently because, two weeks ago, I proposed to my Introduction to Theatre class at the College of Staten Island that we structure the day as a competition. We had been reading Peter Brook's chapter on "rough theater" and I wanted to make some by temporarily emphasizing quantity over quality, speed over subtlety, and commitment over long-term planning.
The class went extraordinarily well. It may have been one of the best teaching days I've ever had. I could tell this long before the students almost unanimously affirmed how great it had been for them. I could tell by the way they took up the challenge, huddling together in their competitive groups, planning their scenes. There were nine rounds of performances. Each student directed one scene. Each scene was in response to a theme, such as "love" or "tragedy" or "the ocean." They had exactly five minutes to rehearse before each performance.
The day went so well that I began to think: What would it look like to structure an entire semester of Introduction to Theatre around these kinds of competitions? What if I gave up my personal interest in holy theater, political theater, tragic theater, radical experimental theater, and allowed roughness to reign? What if I gave them what they wanted? Would things fall apart? Would the competitive edge become too sharp, and feelings get hurt? Already in one day I was uncomfortable with the trash-talking that sprang up, although it seemed friendly enough and as far as I could tell no one's feelings were hurt. But I wonder if this was possible because we were already two months into the semester and the students were already friends. If I started with this on day one, would they be as considerate to each other?
I'm interested in this idea. I feel a loathing for the reduction of performance to measurable judgment, as in the culture of American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. But this wasn't my experience of Festival, after all. I never felt our work was viewed in a shallow way, even when we didn't win. My freshman year, our production of Peter Brook's adaptation of Conference of the Birds only made it to semi-finals. I was disappointed, but it didn't matter. That production remains with me as one of the most powerful experiences I've had in theatre. The beginning of something that is still ongoing.
I remember a conversation that I had during my senior year of high school, with our wonderful technical director. He had mentioned the idea that our school might stop participating in Festival, precisely because they were concerned about the competitive feelings it provoked. I was upset: How could we not do Festival? Didn't he understand that the competition was what fueled our dedication and what made the work so good? No, he said. What made the work so good was the strict rules we had to follow. The time limit of forty minutes allowed much greater precision than our other main stage productions, which could last for two hours or even longer. In addition, there was the process, as described above: multiple rounds, with time in between to rehearse and revise. This is what gave Festival it's magic, not the competition itself.
Steve Hall — if you are out there — am I quoting you correctly? Do you still think this is true? Isn't there a certain kind of energy that is stirred up by competition itself? If I have my students compete in multiple rounds, with strict time limits and short rehearsal periods, but I don't name any team the winner, will it work just as well? Isn't competition part of what fuels the incredible energy not just of American Idol but of baseball, football, and sports in general? And, after all, don't the oldest plays in the European canon come from nothing less than a dramatic competition — a festival? What then is the relationship between competition, arts, and education?
I intend to find out by experiment exactly what works. I know that I want to see that look on their faces when they are completely focused on the work and not thinking about anything else. I know that day was special because we worked on the scenes for over two hours and nobody checked their phones or had to go to the bathroom. Where did that intensity come from? Has anyone experimented with competitive pedagogies in literature or other fields? What kind of effects did you find?

Real Estate Terms
MLS - Consumer Information
Listed below is a brief overview of some of the forms, common terms and information you may want to consider before buying or selling your home or property.
In a real estate transaction a number of forms are required. The consumer should be aware of these forms in order to understand and protect his/her interests.
Listing Agreement – A contract between a seller of real property and a broker. The broker is employed to sell real estate on the owner's terms within a given time, for which service the seller agrees to pay a commission.
Management Agreement – A contract between the owner of real property and a broker. The broker is employed to rent, exchange, or lease real estate on the owner's terms within a given time, for which service the owner agrees to pay a fee.
Buyer/Tenant Agreement – A contract between the client and broker. The broker is employed to seek a particular type of real property, within a certain geographic area, during a given time, for which service the buyer/tenant agrees on the amount and method of compensation to be paid.
Real Estate Relationships Disclosure – A form that specifically sets forth agency and brokerage relationships. At the first substantive contact with a seller or buyer who has not entered into a written agreement with a broker, the licensee discloses in writing to that person the types of agency and brokerage relationships available. The licensee also provides a written copy of the disclosure to the seller or buyer.
Seller's Property Condition Disclosure – This form describes the condition of residential real property as known by the seller. Sellers of residential real property are required to furnish a completed copy of this form to a buyer before the buyer makes a written offer.
Lead Paint Disclosure – This form is required to comply with the sale or lease of any pre-1978 residential dwellings. This was enacted into law by Congress to disclose lead paint hazards.
Purchase Agreement – A contract for the purchase and sale of real property in which the buyer agrees to purchase for a certain price and the seller agrees to convey title. To be enforceable, it must be in writing and signed by both parties.
Closing Statement – A statement of receipts and disbursements in a real estate property transaction. The listing broker furnishes a closing statement to the seller. The selling broker furnishes a closing statement to the buyer.
Lease Agreement – A contract by which one (the lessor or landlord) gives to another (the lessee or tenant) temporary possession and use of real property for reward and the lessee agrees to return such property to the lessor at a future time. A one-year or longer lease requires a written lease agreement.TYPES OF HOUSING
To meet the many kinds of needs that people have, a number of different types of housing have been developed over the years. Homebuyers need to know about them. Income levels and special needs may dictate the kind of housing appealing to the consumer now and for the near future. However, as family needs change, another style of housing can be considered.
Single Family Residence – The single-family dwelling has always been a very popular kind of housing. Each type of home has its advantages and disadvantages, and tastes vary in architectural styles. But one thing to keep in mind is that eventually all homes are resold to new owners. The more unusual the type of construction, the more difficult it will probably be to find a buyer.
Duplex – A duplex is basically two single-family dwellings joined together. The middle wall separating the units is common to both. This type of housing offers an owner the opportunity to live in one side and rent the other side. The income from the rental portion helps the owner pay for the entire property.
Semi-detached – Two homes sharing a common wall with a "zero lot line".
Condominium – Condominium ownership is designed to provide exclusive use and ownership of a portion of a larger property, plus shared use and ownership of common areas. Under the condominium arrangement, the individual owner purchases the exclusive right to occupy the space where the unit is located. The owner also receives an undivided interest in the land and common areas, such as hallways, elevators, structure of the building, and as a rule, the recreation facilities. A board of directors or a condominium association elected by unit owners administers the common area.
Townhouse – The townhouse combines features of a house and a condominium. The legal concept is that the owner enjoys a separate ownership of his/her dwelling and the land immediately beneath the dwelling, plus joint ownership of the common areas surrounding the dwelling units. There may be restrictions upon all separately owned lots and dwellings. The right to establish and enforce these restrictions is usually vested in an owner's association. Title to the common areas is vested in the association, and it governs how the residents use the area.
Decide on the type of housing to purchase and the general location to live. Although needs differ from family to family, there are certain general guidelines which every potential homebuyer should consider. The following represents some of the items to consider:
Availability and quality of schools in the area
How close you are to work
Availability of shopping centers, churches and recreational facilities
General condition of homes in the neighborhood
Property taxes compared to similar houses in other neighborhoods
Utility rates (gas, electricity, water, and telephone)
Police; fire protection and garbage collection
Availability of public transportation.
Quiet neighborhood or on an arterial street.
Rural or Urban
Give some thought into the approximate price range of the house, and how the monthly payments will be made once the house is occupied. During the qualifying interview, the REALTOR® helps determine the price range and/or payment that will be comfortable.
Once the prospective purchaser has found the house that seems to be "just perfect", the tendency is to want to close the transaction right away and move in. STOP! Before getting swept away with the excitement of the moment, there are a number of things to check. The time to ask questions and check facts is before buying.
Condition of the house – A Seller's Property Condition Disclosure form, completed by the seller, is required on most residential real property. This form is to be furnished to the buyer before making a written offer. This form can be utilized during the inspection of the property as a "checklist" of items to review. A person qualified to perform inspections can point out any concerns or problem areas. The money spent for an inspection may be a very wise investment. If obtaining a loan, most lenders will require a survey. Whether or not a loan is obtained, it may be wise to have a survey done prior to closing.
Zoning Restrictions – Ask how the area is zoned. Zoning is established by local government and designates the type of buildings and how they may be used, such as: residential, commercial, and industrial.
Restrictive Covenants – These are private agreements that restrict the use and occupancy of real property. Such things as the purpose of the structure to be built, architectural requirements, setbacks, size of structure and aesthetics are only some examples. The consumer or REALTOR® can contact the Register of Deeds to obtain further information.
Taxes – Find out the cost of property tax and if there are any special assessments regarding roads, streets, sewers, electrical, etc. Also check if there are any property tax reduction programs affecting the current year's taxes.
Easements – An easement is a right or privilege one party has to the use of another's land for a special purpose consistent with the general use of the land. Easements are commonly given to telephone and electric companies to erect poles and run lines, as well as gas and water companies. Other easements can be given to people to drive or walk across someone else's land. The consumer or REALTOR® can find what easements exist on the property by contacting the Register of Deeds.

Allright guys, I've perused around the forums, and there seems to be some very knowledgable people around here, so here's to hoping that someone can help me out with this.
My car will buck a lot (and by buck I mean cut off and turn back on very fast... tachometer goes crazy for a moment and all)... sometimes when the car cuts out, the battery light comes on, and then turns off when the car goes back to normal while I'm driving. Every once in awhile the car will cut out, and and when the battery light comes on, it'll stall out, at which point I'll have to restart it (which doesn't seem hard to do). I've had this problem before, and they fixed it by replace two engine coils... however, I live in the great state of Ohio, and in the midst of all the wildnerness and wildlife beauty, I ended up hitting a deer on a poorly lit highway and almost immediately the problem came back. The mechanics that I brought the car to "threw" several parts at my car (as advised by GM techs since my car would not give a trouble code) to include a TPS sensor... a few days later the car still has the same problem and my credit card has run out of room for them to continue replacing parts without actually knowing wether or not it'll fix the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem may be?? Thanks in advance! |

POC Requirements – Token Authentication and Mapping
Often times in sales engineering I get "tunnel-vision", focusing so much of my efforts on just meeting the requirements of a proof-of-concept (POC) that I fail to fully appreciate the true value Expressway Service Gateway provides Intel's customers. Take a POC I recently completed, some of the functional items on my list to demonstrate included:
- Multiple credential schemes
- Token Authentication and Mapping
- Integration with Oracle Access Manager
- Support for multiple protocol and data types (especially for Web Services, REST, SOAP, etc.)
Although I successfully demonstrated and checked off all the functional items on my list, these four had special significance for my customer. And like the ingredients in my Mom's famous brownie recipe – each are "sweet" outright but baking them together yields something truly awesome. Stepping back I realized the same applied to these key POC functional items – combining these within Expressway created something of immense value to my customer.
Security Token Service
A Security Token Service (STS) is a software based provider primarily responsible for authenticating clients and issuing security tokens. An STS removes the burden of authenticating clients from applications – simply redirecting to the STS not only performs authorization but also provides a trusted security token allowing applications to easily consume protected services likely part of a federated model. Not surprising Expressway Service Gateway was chosen to facilitate this, considering its application security capabilities, including:
Multiple ways to extract identities, including: Single Sign-On from cookie, name from SAML subject, principal name from Kerberos, name or token from OAuth authorization request, HTTP basic authorization, any HTTP metadata (query, headers, etc.), and WS-Security.
Identity Providers and Authentication Mechanisms Support
Built in support for LDAP, Active Directory, Oracle Access Manager, Tivoli Access Manager, STS, Keystore.
Token Mapping and Creation
Create from scratch or map to SAML, OAuth, and WS-Trust tokens or create customized tokens.
Flexible Interface Configuration
Policy based interface configuration allows users to easily configure protocol, data input type, and contextual information (i.e. HTTP method, URI, query params, headers, etc.)
Benefit To The Customer
Expressway Service Gateway was successfully demonstrated to be an agile and effective STS – solving real business needs the customer has, including:
- Providing seamless integration with the Oracle Identity Management Suite.
- Providing a vendor-neutral platform that modernizes their current Identity and Access Management platform by integrating both contemporary and emerging technologies.
- Eliminating costly custom integrations with improved interoperability and security between applications (3rd party, SaaS, mobile).
- Flexible protocol support for federated and web access management within a hybrid enterprise, allowing secure access to any private, public or hybrid cloud environment.
- Potential to move any cloud-based partner identity solutions on-premise.
The POC was a complete success – the customer is now employing Expressway for multiple infrastructure needs, particularly as a STS. Expressway provides them increased flexibility and security while opening up tremendous opportunities for their infrastructure roadmap. Identity Access and Management initiatives can now be broken into phases thanks in part to Expressway's integration with contemporary and emerging technologies – eliminating the necessity to do too much, too soon.
