The Wall Street Journal published an alarmist piece yesterday depicting California's electrical grid as the victim of a 'looming crisis' brought on by the state's 'growing reliance' on wind and solar. While the success of wind and solar certainly raises new issues in terms of how to plan and operate the future electrical grid, the article overstated the severity of the problem California currently faces.

Does any one know a seed source for acacia stenophylla-shoestring acacia. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
I had 2 of these trees. Yup, had. I took them down for good reason, too so will share my experience. Sorry to rain on your parade. I do hope it helps. Cracking: The trees have an upright habit resulting in narrow crotches. This lead to cracks and since this is an upright tree the cracks occured well above anyone's head making them difficult to deal with. Arborists tell me this is not uncommon in these trees. Reseeding: Acacia stenophylla seed production is huge and from my experience a zillion percent of them are viable. Conside those graceful strings of pearls hanging in quantity from a mature tree, these are all seeds... They also will sprout from lateral roots at a distance from the trunk of the tree. I'm not sure if these sprouts can become actual trees but they are unsightly. This occurred both before I removed the trees and after removing the trees. Yup, the roots are still actively producing sprouts. The roots of 2 trees that are not even here anymore are still using soil resources including water. So even though these trees are no longer there they are using soil resources that would otherwise be available to other plants. Trash: I love mulch but this tree drops tons of stuff all year. The leaves are leathery and don't compost easily. And the seeds that are in that mulch make it more useless. Experiences of friends: A friend who takes care of trees in city parks tells me that Shoestring acacias drop stuff constantly and that this leaves stains on pavement. Another friend also had them spouting from lateral roots in his yard. Lousy near pools: The leaves are very long and narrow and leathery and grow even more so when wet making them a real hazard for pool pumps. This tree is on some pool tree lists! Be careful of those lists. Moral of the story for me has been: Trees in parks and parking lots are in very different circumstances than our yards and should not be relied on entirely for examples. The lists of recommended plants have probably not been improved since written so consider them with caution. |
Wow, thanks for the information. I had no idea. The last thing I need in the garden is something that wants to be invasive. And suckers too. I recently saw it while at a garden tour and it looked so nice. It was a small tree but still. I am glad you told me before I made the mistake. Reminds me of the time I planted running bamboo (in Florida) and ended up digging trenches all over my yard to get it out. Never want to experience any thing like that again. Thanks Trini1 |

Mr. Aylward asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the way in which he intends to compensate farmers who sell cattle at marts for export in view of the increase announced in the slaughter premium as a result of a decision by the EU Council of Ministers to pay extra compensation in respect of factories slaughtering cattle; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10050/96] Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry (Mr. Yates) Ivan Yates Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry (Mr. Yates): At the Emergency Council of Agriculture Ministers meeting in Luxembourg on 1-3 April, which was called to address the BSE crisis, it was agreed that compensatory measures would be put in place in addition to market support measures, if this was deemed necessary. In this context, the Council agreed at its meeting on 29-30 April, on the urgency of short-term income support measures for producers. 1695 [1695] Arising from this the EU Commission have formulated proposals for a compensation package to assist producers. However, the details of this package have not been finalised and no decision has been taken by the Council of Minister.

Qi is the term used in traditional Chinese medicine to describe your body's energy. Qi flows around your body in a series of meridian pathways. These pathways are separate from your circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems and influence the way in which your body functions. The qi that is presently in your body is a combination of your genetic makeup at conception, how you have lived your life since birth, and your daily intake of food and air. Foods that build qi include;
People with Qi deficiency tend to seek out sweet foods. In traditional Chinese dietary therapy there are two categories for sweet foods; the first is termed empty sweet which in small amounts is considered cooling and eliminating. It contains simple sugars such as fruits, juices, honey and raw sugar.
The second category is termed full sweet, is considered warming and nourishing. It includes complex carbohydrates, protein and tonifying herbs and contains food such as rice, potatoes, meat and red dates.

We were trying to get out of the joyful month of February but were sobered by the remembrance of Abraham Lincoln whose birthday we cannot escape. February was also the month when he was re-elected as president of our country and was in the process of considering signing the Emancipation Proclamation, which incidentally was at the great cost of over a half million American lives. Although Lincoln was a great humorist his life was permeated with a deep sadness that caused periods of melancholy. He had seen much death. His mother died when he was a boy. His sister when he was a teenager and Ann Rutledge, the love of his life, when he was in his 20s. Two of his four sons died before him and of course there were the thousands of soldiers that consecrated the ground at Gettysburg.
Lincolns preoccupation with mortality reminds us of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles the V who had a coffin constructed that he actually would lie down in once a day and say, momento mori, remember you must die. Lincoln wrestled with mortality by memorizing great portions of scripture from Job and Ecclesiastes. In the 1830s a friend named Dr. James Duncan introduced Lincoln to the poem called mortality. It contained 14 four-line stanzas. Over time he was able to memorize it all and at the tip of a hat he would recite the entire piece. He became so identified with the poem that people thought he had written it. Lincoln would recite the poem one last time the evening before he went to the Ford theatre with Mary Todd, where he was assassinated.
Lincoln never found out who wrote the poem until late in his life, and it is interesting that there is a bronze Lincoln on top of a Scottish-American monument on the grounds of the old cemetery in Edinburgh, Scotland, where William Knox, the author of mortality is buried.
Mortality entered this wonderful creation we live in through a couple of wonderful creatures who doubted the word of their maker regarding their diet. Their disobedient act of eating resulted in losing the image in which they were created and introduced them and all their offspring to mortality, as the Word you shall surely die is passed on to all mankind.
Now we are quite sure you know the Maker of man refused to give up on mortals and entered this world not only to serve as the Son of God but as the son of man. As a man He could take a mans place and as the Son of God He could take the place of all mankind. That fact is the heart of the Lenten Season you should be observing!
Now back to Abe Lincoln who so often was preoccupied with mortality but often thought well of his enemies and even appointed some of them to his cabinet, winning them over one by one. We quickly connect to our Lord Jesus Christ, Who loved His enemies and Who looked down from the Mount of Olives and wept over the city of Jerusalem because they did not respect His authority or listen to His Word. He dreaded going to the Cross and He could have come down from that cross but did not!
Keep on reading the four gospels we encouraged you to in last weeks article Let Lent, and look forward to the great Word I am the resurrection and life, he that believeth in Me though he were dead, shall live. And whosoever believeth in Me shall never die. That Word is the destruction of mortality.
The Words great question is Do you believe this? WARNING! If you do not, you are a lost case!
P.S. For the fun of it, you might like to check on William Knoxs poem Mortality which Abe Lincoln memorized. Wow! Another thing, although Lincoln was a humorist and quite the self-made man, it is not true that he built the log cabin in which he was born.

Beachfront doesn't get any better than this vacation condo! Located at Turtle Beach on Siesta Key in Sarasota, Florida, this vacation home has the best of both worlds -- the beach in front and the Intercoastal and boat docks in back with a heated swimming pool in the middle. This beachfront vacation condo is on Turtle Beach with World famous Crescent Beach/Siesta Key Beach a short distance north on the island; it has one of the best views of the Gulf on Siesta Key. The Village of Siesta Key - with numerous shops, restaurants and pubs - is also only a short distance away. This third-floor unit has a master bedroom with a king-size bed with LCD HDTV and en suite bathroom. Amenities include cable TV, a DVD, and a CD/stereo. We've even supplied a few movies and CD's. We've recently added a Wii Game Console and some games. The kitchen is fully furnished with a microwave, dishwasher, a four-burner stove, and all cooking utensils, silverware, and dishes.
A washer/dryer is only steps down the walkway. Sleep at night with the ocean surf right outside your window! The condo is located just 90 minutes from Tampa, 2.5 hours from Orlando (including Disney World, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Pleasure Island, etc.), and twenty-five minutes from Sarasota airport. Great restaurants and golfing are nearby. It's not unusual to be able to watch dolphins swim by in the gulf from the lanai/patio. The condo is on the southern end of Siesta Key, and is very quiet and uncrowded.
The view is to the west, with spectacular sunsets!

I'm planning ahead where to locate some Gloriosa lilies and I'm trying to figure out what type of trellis they will need. Do they have tendrils that can wrap around wire or rootlets that adhere to the surface of materials? Also, how tall should I expect the vines to grow in one season here in zone 7?
Follow-Up Postings:
Here: Well, it looks like you need to do the vine's work :-\ But it also looks like it'd be worth it! |
- Posted by steve22802 7a VA (My Page) on Fri, Apr 3, 09 at 20:56
Hmmmm...in the picture it looks like they are tying the vines to the trellis. Guess I'll have to help guide and fasten them as needed. |
Gloriosas are interesting in that they cling to supports using tendrils that extend from the distal ends of their leaves; I've never needed to tie mine up, but I lean them against the stems of shrubs and small trees to get them headed in the right direction initially. |

For RPG-lovers, there's no more pleasant pastime than getting lost in a colossal, continent-spanning adventure, and if that floats your Elven barge, then Two Worlds II is definitely worth a look-in.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 - Review
2010's Final Fantasy XIII received a mixed critical reception. Chief among the complaints was the ditching of the series' usual side-quest-packed open-world structure in favour of a linear journey filled with desolate environments that offered the bare minimum of distractions. Two years later - the series is now a quarter of a century old and has surpassed 100 million game sales - creator Square Enix delivers the direct sequel, aiming to give fans what they wanted from the previous game. In many respects, Final Fantasy XIII-2 makes good on that promise.…

With so many excellent fighting games already on the market, it can be hard to pick just one to invest the time with.

They both look fantastic in motion and - if we're being honest - who doesn't like playing as Batman, or one of the devilish members of the dysfunctional Mishima family? But to pick one of these games without considering the vibrant charms of Persona 4 Arena would be a mistake, as it's not only one of the best fighting games in the bare-knuckle business, it's also surprisingly accessible to boot.…

Volunteering has come to define Asylum Welcome's unique character and without our volunteers the charity simply could not function. Currently, there are about 200 active volunteers supporting our work with asylum seekers, refugees and detainees. Find out why they support Asylum Welcome – their stories may inspire you to get involved too!
Volunteer opportunities
Asylum Welcome puts together people in great need with people who want to help. We provide meaningful, rewarding volunteer placements for people from a wide variety of backgrounds, and with a range of skills and experience. We are committed to offering full training and support for new and existing volunteers, and usually ask for a 12 month minimum commitment. Trained volunteers provide a wide range of services for our clients.
Please contact us for more information.
We are also frequently looking for volunteers to help provide all the services below, so please get in touch if any of these areas interest you.
- An advice centre (a.k.a. Information and Signposting) operating at Asylum Welcome's office between 10am and 3 pm on weekdays. This provides basic guidance and information to clients on a range of issues such as benefits and asylum support.
- A Detention Support Programme which includes providing a visitor service to immigration detainees at Campsfield House and an office-based Detention Support Team. If you wish to become a visitor you will be expected to visit detainees in Campsfield House in Kidlington weekly.
- An education advice service running once a week offering information about educational opportunities for asylum seekers and refugees in Oxfordshire as well as English lessons.
- An advocacy team which organises awareness-raising campaigns and events, manages the website and keeps up to date on the latest policy issues affecting asylum seekers in order to educate the public on the issues faced by our clients.
- A volunteer-run admin team composed of receptionists, office managers and Health and Safety officers.
- A youth service composed of youth workers and volunteers who run a variety of activities such as weekly football sessions and a youth club.
- A weekly lunch club on Wednesdays where clients and volunteers cook a hot meal and eat and chat together.
If you have other skills or knowledge to share, please also contact us to discuss your interests.
We very much welcome applications from students who are able to commit to volunteering with us for a minimum of 12 months.
Sadly we receive more requests from students for help with their research than we can possibly support. We ask therefore, that only students at local universities contact us. Since we are a small organisation with very few members of staff, we can still only consider supporting students whose research closely matches our own priorities.
Find out more
Contact us for more information about current volunteering opportunities or to arrange an informal meeting. The meeting will give you a chance to discuss what volunteering with Asylum Welcome involves and find out about our volunteer induction training. Please note that we usually ask for a minimum 12 month commitment.

Neurologists Issue New Guideline for Treating Neuropathy
A team of neurologists has issued a new set of recommendations for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy, including drugs and other treatments that have been found to be the most effective therapies for the condition.
Diabetic neuropathy is damage to nerves, created by inflammation brought on by high blood sugar levels. Side effects can include severe tingling and pain as nerves are slowly destroyed by inflammation. In some cases, loss of nerve sensitivity can endanger limbs as people with diabetes unknowingly injure their legs or feet, unable to feel pain or wounds.
The guideline, published in the April 11, 2011, online issue of Neurology, was developed under the auspices of the American Academy of Neurology, in collaboration with the American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine, and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
The neurology panel did an extensive review of the best scientific studies to create the guideline and specific drug recommendations. The guideline says that the seizure drug pregabalin is effective in treating diabetic nerve pain and can improve quality of life. However, it notes that pregabalin may not be appropriate for all patients.
The guideline also found that several other treatments show some effectiveness: the seizure drugs gabapentin and valproate; antidepressants such as venlafaxine, duloxetine, and amitriptyline; and painkillers such as opioids and capsaicin. Researchers also concluded that transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation, a portable electric device used to stimulate nerves, may be effective in treating diabetic nerve pain.
"Diabetic nerve pain is treatable, and we now have clear guidelines for this disabling condition. Many patients with diabetic neuropathy are receiving inadequate treatment or no treatment at all. This is a significant problem as the number of people with diabetes increases across the United States," says guideline author James Russell, MD, professor of neurology, anatomy, and neurobiology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. "Diabetic neuropathy is a painful and life-altering condition, so we need to find ways to help people who are suffering with it. These new recommendations provide physicians and patients the latest information, based on sound clinical research, so they can make the best decisions about their care.

My Favorite Things Flash Cards Make Learning Fun
San Francisco artist Lorena Siminovich, in conjunction with Chronicle Books, has created Chronicle Books">My Favorite Things, a delightful series of flash cards to help your toddler learn her ABCs. Each flash card is simple, yet colorful beautifully made.
Siminovich uses apples, birds, horses, castles and other "favorite things" to bring the alphabet to life. The images are simple but brightly colored to hold a tot's attention.
Each flash card measures 6-7/8 x 5-1/2 x 1-5/8 in. They are recommended for kids 0 to 3, though realistically your child probably won't get much out of them until after age 1.
The cards are printed on thick sturdy board making it easy for little hands to hold, but tough for them to destroy. The flash cards are so lovely you could even use them to decorate a child's room.
If you're looking for a stylish way to get your child more familiar with the alphabet, My Favorite Things Flash Cards are a great addition to your library.
Buy My Favorite Things Flash Cards at Chronicle Books.

If, however, if you're bothered by conservatives (so many of them men - I haven't figured that out either) who are determined to reduce the influence of government in peoples' lives, except where it involves women and their reproductive rights, then plunge right in. I have a couple of action plans, and one of them is wickedly delicious.
Today, January 22, 2012, is the 39th anniversary of the passage of Roe v Wade. Many of us remember when it was made into law. It was 1973 and I was 23 years old. If anyone's interested in hearing some pre-Roe v Wade back alley abortion stories, they abound. My mother, who was a long-time volunteer for Planned Parenthood knows of more than she'd like.
Unfortunately, in the 39 years since then, self-proclaimed christian conservatives have worked diligently to erode the law. They have successfully restricted access to abortion services with restrictive legislation and have vilified Planned Parenthood, which has provided reproductive healthcare for over 90 years to women from all walks of life.
Now there is the "personhood" movement, a truly disturbing trend to grant legal rights to embryos. Here's their creepy promotional video:
Visit this site to learn how they seek to define personhood as originating at conception, through state legislatures. Their goal is to "build the support of at least two thirds of the states in an effort to reaffirm personhood within the U.S. Constitution" This is some scary stuff, which, if successful, would make Roe v Wade nothing more than a fond memory and would critically impact contraceptive choices. Thankfully the amendment failed to pass in Mississippi (Mississippi!) in November, but these folks are persistent and currently have Colorado and Arkansas in their sites. They're gathering names for a petition in Florida to get it on the ballot. Check your own state to see the level of activity.
Let's bring the craziness home: Of the current Republican Presidential nominees, 3 have signed a pledge in support of said personhood movement: Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul. (So far Mitt Romney has managed to resist the wingnut siren call.)
There are plenty of ways to make our pro-reproductive health voices known, and you're probably familiar with them. Since this particular threat is on a state level, communicate with your state representatives. Stay alert to the personhood agenda. Write letters to the editor. But, even better....
I have a wickedly delicious action we can each take
It will only take a few minutes of your time
It puts money where it belongs
And it's tax deductible.
Here's what makes it wickedly delicious: When you make your donation to this venerable organization, do it in honor of a conservative who's committed to denying women the right to make decisions about their reproductive health.
You may have the misfortune to be represented by one or more of these sanctimonious jerks (as I do). Donate in his or her honor! Follow this link to see how your elected representatives stand on reproductive choice issues. Otherwise, feel free honor Rick Santorum, who is definitely deserving of some honorary Planned Parenthood love. His home address (which is public record) is 10607 Creamcup Ln, Great Falls, VA 22066. (Do you love it? Creamcup?)
Do it now: support Planned Parenthood with whatever you can afford, and enjoy visualizing former Senator Santorum and others receiving dozens, hundred, maybe even thousands of acknowledgments from Planned Parenthood.
But don't stop here. There are plenty of senators and congressmen who do support women's reproductive rights. Thank them with an email or phone call and a campaign donation, if you're able. Follow the same link to see how your elected representatives have voted on pro-choice issues, and let them know how you feel about it.

We will have two wedding reception dinner choices, plus a children's meal. How do we let our wedding guests know the options, and how do they let us know what they would like (and how many of each)?
The most common way of handling this is to include the wedding reception dinner options on the bottom of the response card -- it makes things really easy for your guests, since they need to return the card to you anyway. Some etiquette experts (and some regular people, too) will tell you this is tacky, but for many people it's simply the most practical.
If you don't want to do that, talk to your wedding caterer or reception site manager to come up with a plan. When you give them the total headcount for the reception, specify the number of children (since they'll be getting kids' meals), but also ask how they plan on handling the entree choice. Most caterers will have a good sense of how guests will choose (whether it will be split down the middle or one choice traditionally enjoys much more popularity). To really be on the safe side though, you should probably go ahead and order a few extra of each meal.
If that sounds too scary, stick to the wedding invitation response cards. Simply list the three options (you might indicate what the child's meal includes as well as noting that it's for kids) underneath the line on which wedding guests let you know whether they will attend. Put an underscore in front of each option, so guests can write in the number of each kind of meal that they'd like (or a check mark, if, say, there are three people coming and each of them wants a different meal). Guests generally understand what to do when they see wedding reception dinner options on a response card, so don't worry too much about it!

White Wolf. Overview[edit] White Wolf has also released several series of novels based on the Old World of Darkness, all of which are currently out of print (although many are coming back into availability via print-on-demand).
Video games such as Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption and Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines are based on White Wolf's role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade. There are also several Hunter: The Reckoning video games. Merger[edit] Black Dog Game Factory. Black Dog Game Factory Logo Black Dog Game Factory was a label used by White Wolf, Inc. for the publication of a number of books in their original World of Darkness RPG line.
Books published by Black Dog had adult or mature themes, though not all Black Dog-published books dealt with sexual material. Some are labeled as adult because they deal with themes of strong violence or evil (such as Hunter Book: Wayward), religious themes (Cainite Heresy), or controversial subject matter (the Holocaust-based Charnel Houses of Europe: The Shoah). Hol (role-playing game) HoL (sometimes written as "HōL") is a role-playing game created by Dirt Merchant Games and produced by Black Dog Game Factory, a subsidiary of White Wolf which produced adult oriented RPGs.
The HoL Core Rulebook was published in 1994,[1] and was followed up by one other supplement Buttery Wholesomeness in 1995.[2] Although HoL is playable, it was meant as a satire of RPGs. The pages of the books are written by hand, and the authors freely take stabs at other popular role-playing games, particularly Vampire: The Masquerade and Dungeons & Dragons, and those who play them. HoL is a science fiction game set in the very distant future where mankind has colonized the entire galaxy. Characters in the game have been either trapped or imprisoned on the planet HoL (The Human Occupied Landfill), which is located outside the galaxy as far away as possible from everyone else. HoL is a penal colony for the scum of the galaxy as seen in the eyes of the C.O.W.
Werewolf: The Apocalypse. Along with the other titles in the World of Darkness, Werewolf was discontinued in 2004.
Its successor title within the New World of Darkness, Werewolf: The Forsaken, was released on March 14, 2005. In 2011 new publications for the Classic World of Darkness were announced, including a 20th Anniversary Edition of Werewolf: The Apocalypse.[3] The Werewolf Translation Guide is the first new publication, being available in April 2012.[4] Also older Classic World of Darkness books are made gradually available as Print on Demand-Versions, through DriveThruRPG.[5] As revealed at GenCon in August 2012, Werewolf: The Apocalypse is among the White Wolf properties licensed to be developed by Onyx Path Publishing.[6] Werewolf: The Forsaken. Werewolf: The Forsaken is a role-playing game set in the new World of Darkness created by White Wolf Game Studio.
It is the successor to Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the "game of savage horror" from the old World of Darkness line of games, but has moved to a more personal sort of horror, reflecting the "dark mystery" theme of the new World of Darkness. Characters[edit] Players portray the Forsaken, werewolves, known as Uratha, who are sworn to a duty to maintain a balance and prevent ingress between the spirit worlds and the material world. Any human who may unknowingly possess a werewolf heritage could undergo a First Change at some time in their life, though what triggers the change is unknown. It is only known that it almost never happens before puberty or after the age of 60.[1] Following this Change, each character develops an Auspice, defined by what phase the moon was at during their First Change, and most join a Tribe or become a tribeless werewolf known as a Ghost Wolf.
Mage: The Ascension. Mage: The Ascension is a role-playing game based in the World of Darkness, and was published by White Wolf Game Studio.
The characters portrayed in the game are referred to as mages, and are capable of feats of magic. The idea of magic in Mage is broadly inclusive of diverse ideas about mystical practices as well as other belief systems, such as science and religion, so that most mages do not resemble typical fantasy wizards. In 2005, White Wolf released a new version of the game, marketed as Mage: The Awakening, for the new World of Darkness series.
The new game features some of the same game mechanics but uses a substantially different premise and setting. [edit] Demon: The Fallen. Demon: The Fallen is a role-playing game and a fictional setting from the World of Darkness line by White Wolf Game Studio.
The player characters in the game are demons; fallen angels who were cast out of paradise after siding with Lucifer in a thousand year war with God. History[edit] Mummy: The Resurrection. Mummy: The Resurrection is a role-playing game released by White Wolf Game Studios, where the players assume the role of resurrected mummies living in the modern world.
Mummy: The Resurrection introduces the Amenti, a new style of mummy than those presented in earlier World of Darkness products. [1] Setting[edit] In 1999, a catastrophic storm (the Sixth Maelstrom, a major event in White Wolf's metaplot) shook the Underworld and - among other things - woke Osiris from his long slumber. Changeling: The Dreaming. Changeling: The Dreaming was part of White Wolf Game Studio's original "World of Darkness" role playing game line.
Player characters are changelings, fae souls reborn into human bodies, a practice begun by the fae to protect themselves as magic vanished from the world. The game explores the balance between imagination and practicality, and the struggle of art and beauty against the dark, mysterious "Gothic-Punk" World of Darkness. Wraith: The Oblivion.
Wraith: The Oblivion is a role-playing game designed by Mark Rein·Hagen.
It is set in the afterlife of White Wolf Game Studio's World of Darkness setting, in which the players take on characters who are recently dead and are now ghosts. Wraith: The Oblivion featured an artistically consistent depiction of the afterlife and strong emotional themes, but was is the least commercially popular of the World of Darkness games. World of Darkness. "World of Darkness" (or WoD) is the name given to three related but distinct fictional universes created as settings for supernatural horror themed role-playing games. It is also the name of roleplaying games in the second and third settings. The first was conceived by Mark Rein-Hagen, while the second was designed by several people at White Wolf Gaming Studio, which Rein-Hagen helped to found.
Storytelling System. The Storytelling System, formerly Storyteller System, is a role-playing game system created by White Wolf, Inc. in 1991 that premiered in Vampire: The Masquerade, a part of the World of Darkness series.[1] History[edit] Storyteller System[edit] While on the road to Gen Con '90, Mark Rein·Hagen came upon the idea of a new game design that would become Vampire: The Masquerade. Tom Dowd, co-designer for Shadowrun, worked with Rein-Hagen to adapt the core mechanics from his previous game success to use d10 instead of d6 for calculating probability.[1] Over the next few years, several games were published under this rule set.
Ars Magica. Ars Magica was one of the first examples of a Troupe system. Early editions recommended that the players collaborate to create the campaign world and story: Each player having an opportunity to be Story Guide. Street Fighter: The Storytelling Game. Game cover Street Fighter: The Storytelling Game is a role-playing game based on the Street Fighter video game series. It uses most of the basic game mechanics from White Wolf's World of Darkness games. It was released in 1994 and contains most of the characters from Super Street Fighter II. The Storytelling Game is currently out of print, as are all games using the original Storytelling System. Character generation[edit] Exalted. Exalted is a role-playing game published by White Wolf Publishing. The game is classified as high fantasy, but may be more accurately described as "mythic fantasy", as the developer specifically avoided drawing on J. R.

I never thought I would miss carpet. Itchy-ugly-just-begging-for-me-to-spill-a-glass-of red-wine-carpet. What-the-HELL-is-that- another-pile-of-cat-barf-SCRUB SCRUB SCRUB-carpet.
Right. So I've always wanted hardwood floors. The quality stuff, the kind from another era that have some nice wear, a few imperfections, but overall are in good solid condition.
And I now have what I've wanted—an entire apartment of hardwood floors.
And cold feet. Not like pre-wedding jitters cold feet, but actual, literal cold feet. And if you have cats you know what an irritant the grit of cat litter on bare feet can be. So yeah, I miss carpet just a wee bitty bit, but it's nothing a few area rugs or some socks won't fix.
But I guess what I'm taking four paragraphs to say is that the grass isn't always greener—there are always compromises.
Another compromise is that my kitchen doesn't have a dishwasher. Not so awful with just one person—I'm not dirtying mounds of dishes nor do I even have mounds of them to dirty, but last night I stood at the sink and scrubbed my only good pot, a lonely plate and one little fork, and it made me really want that dishwasher so I could just throw everything inside, close the door and not have to stand at the sink and miss cooking for two.
(And don't give me that look, because I'm not all "wahhhh my life's not complete without a guy. " Simply dealing with glitches as my system reboots.)
Last night as I dutifully chopped a yellow bell pepper, I thought I heard a knock at my front door. I paused mid-chop and crept, literally tip-toed, toward the door. Not only that but I took the knife with me. I silently cursed the squeaky (but beautiful!) hardwood, and hesitated in the entranceway, not sure if someone was there or not. Then a soft wrap came again and when I unlocked and opened my door, there was my young neighbor's cute face and a bundle of muffins tied in a bow with a sheer green ribbon.
"They're banana walnut. Just wanted to welcome you to the building," she said with a sweet smile.
And then I felt extra stupid still clutching my big knife so I graciously accepted her gift and invited her in and gave her a tour. I found out some good info about my other neighbors. Peeps upstairs have dogs and own their place. The lady across from me has lived there something crazy like 15 years and likes to plant herbs in the back yard and will offer pots to me if I want to help. It's first come first serve on the washer/dryer and people generally do follow the 9 p.m. rule (she and her husband were also irritated about whoever broke the rule this week.)
So yeah, muffins! I didn't think people did that sort of thing in real life. It seems like the whole "can I borrow a cup of sugar" fluff scenario, but it did make me feel incredibly welcome. I'm glad I don't have to share those.Comments
I still don't have any indoor sewer water yet!
The indoor flush spring is unheard off here!
You have a sorta muffin rhythm. jibe. Ba Ba.
I read that like I felt I had ants in my pants.
I'm on a diet, eating only blueberries, beer,
pistachio ice cream, and rice wine, heigh-ho!
(Is the 'weight loss' recent?)(I'll go to your OS Library and see what else you've been up to)(I don't know how I've missed your posts, you've been a fav for a long time)(good to see you)

Toward the end of the 18th century Jews settled in the
municipality of Thamen, located on the border of the provinces of
North Holland and Utrecht. The small community was comprised mostly
of butchers and vendors. In 1803, five Amsterdam Jews purchased the
Mennonite Church at Mijdrecht
and donated it to the Jews of Thamen. The building was renovated in
1805 and reopened as a synagogue.
1818, Thamen was divided into two municipalities, Uithoorn and
Mijdrecht. Following the division, separate Jewish communities were
formed in both places. In 1821, the Jewish community at Uithoorn
was granted independent status as a Ringsynagoge or regional
community. At the time, the Jews of Mijdrecht were part of the
Ringsynagoge at Maarssen. The Jews of Mijdrecht
enjoyed independent status from 1835 to 1906, but Jewish life in
Mijdrecht always remained closely connected with that in
The Uithoorn community was governed by a community council and
maintained a board for administering aid to the poor. Local
voluntary organizations included a burial society and a society for
the maintenance of the synagogue. A single religious teacher
provided instruction to Jewish children in both Uithoorn and
Mijdrecht. The Uithoorn community did not have a cemetery of its
own but buried its dead in the Jewish cemetery at Alphen aan
de Rijn.
By 1900, the condition of the Uithoorn synagogue had declined to
the point that it was razed and replaced with a new building. The
new building fell into disrepair by the 1930s and into disuse by
1938. The contents of the synagogue were sold in 1939. During World
War II, the remaining Jews of Uithoorn razed the synagogue with
their own hands rather than let it be vandalized and desecrated by
the Germans and their Dutch collaborators. Remaining ceremonial
objects were taken to Amsterdam. The majority of the Jewish
population of Uithoorn were deported to Nazi death camps via the
detention camp at Westerbork and murdered. Only five local Jews
managed to survive the war in hiding.
The Jewish community at Uithoorn was administratively abolished in
1947 and the locale placed under the jurisdiction of the Jewish
community at Amsterdam.

Rolls-Royce to supply engines and anchor handling equipment for Bourbon Offshore Norway
Tuesday, 8 April 2014
Rolls-Royce is to deliver deck machinery and engines to an arctic Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessel (AHTS) to be built by Vard for Bourbon Offshore Norway. The contract has a value in excess of £17M for Rolls-Royce.
The deck machinery delivery from Rolls-Royce will consist of anchor handling winches, secondary winches, auxiliary winches, anchor handling cranes and a wide range of safer deck operation equipment. The engine delivery consists of two main engines and three main generator engines. AHTS vessels are built to handle anchors for oil rigs and perform rig moves. They also serve as supply vessels to and from offshore drilling rigs and this vessel will have the capability to serve in emergency rescue and recovery operations.
John Knudsen, Rolls-Royce, President Offshore, said: "Bourbon Offshore has chosen power and volume on both anchor handling winches and secondary winches. This means that the vessel will be in the top class for winch capacities compared to all AHTS vessels built to date."
Rolls-Royce will also deliver all mechanical, hydraulic and electric components needed for the deck machinery equipment. The deck machinery package is developed in close cooperation with the yard and owner, who thereby have chosen a 'one-stop-shop' solution from Rolls-Royce.
The arctic AHTS vessel, is designed by Vard Design, has been developed for world-wide anchor handling and remote operations with a total length of 93.6 meters, a beam of 24 meters and a bollard pull of approximately 270 ton. The vessel is arranged for ROV (Remote Operating Vehicle) and superior anchor-handling capabilities are among its advanced features.
The vessel will be operated by Bourbon Offshore Norway and is scheduled for delivery from Vard Brattvaag in Norway in the first quarter of 2016. The hull of the vessel will be delivered from Vard Tulcea in Romania.
- Rolls-Royce's vision is to create better power for a changing world via two main business segments, Aerospace and Marine & Industrial Power Systems (MIPS). These business segments address markets with two strong technology platforms, gas turbines and reciprocating engines, for use on land, at sea and in the air.
- Aerospace comprises Civil Aerospace and Defence Aerospace. MIPS comprises Marine, Energy & Nuclear and Power Systems. Rolls-Royce currently has 50% ownership of Rolls-Royce Power Systems (RRPS), a collaboration with Daimler AG. RRPS was fully consolidated in the results of Rolls-Royce Holdings plc for the first time in 2013. On 7 March, 2014, Daimler announced their intention to exercise their put option to sell their 50% share in RRPS to Rolls-Royce Holdings plc.
- Rolls-Royce has customers in more than 120 countries, comprising more than 380 airlines and leasing customers, 160 armed forces, 4,000 marine customers, including 70 navies, and 1,600 energy and nuclear customers.
- Our business is focused on the 4Cs:
- Customer - placing the customer at the heart of our business
- Concentration - deciding where to grow and where not to
- Cost - continually looking to increase efficiency
- Cash - improving financial performance.
- Annual underlying revenue was £15.5 billion in 2013, around half of which came from the provision of aftermarket services. The firm and announced order book stood at £71.6 billion at 31 December 2013.
- In 2013, Rolls-Royce invested £1.1 billion on research and development. We also support a global network of 29 University Technology Centres, which position Rolls-Royce engineers with the forefront of scientific research.
- Rolls-Royce employs over 55,000 people in 45 countries. Over 17,000 of these are engineers.
- The Group has a strong commitment to apprentice and graduate recruitment and to further developing employee skills. In 2013 we employed 379 graduates and 288 apprentices through our worldwide training programmes.

JESUITS-NICOLAS Jan-25-2008 (890 words) xxxi
Jesuit general: Order is close to pope, making differences painful
By Cindy Wooden
Catholic News Service
ROME (CNS) -- The obedience, affection and common mission binding the Society of Jesus to the pope are solid, unchanging and the reason why differences can be so painful, said the new superior general of the Jesuits.
Father Adolfo Nicolas, elected Jan. 19 to head the world's largest Catholic men's order, told reporters, "The Society of Jesus has always been, from the beginning, and always will be in communion with the Holy Father, and we are happy to be so."
Meeting journalists Jan. 25, he said, "If there are difficulties, it is precisely because we are so close."
Like a married couple, he said, the Jesuits and the pope are bound to one another and committed to working together for the good of the church and the world.
"Only those who love each other can hurt each other," he said.
From time to time difficulties arise, "but this is normal," he said.
"The Society of Jesus wants to cooperate with the Vatican and obey the Holy Father. This has not and will not change. We were born in this context, and this is the context that will determine our decisions," the superior said.
Father Nicolas said that since his election, he had been reading the newspapers more than usual and has found some of the comments about his election entertaining, some absolutely false and others right on the mark.
He said a Spanish newspaper had been looking for his report card from a school he attended only one year at the age of 10.
"It's terrible, that year I failed two subjects -- geography and another that I don't remember," he said.
Other newspapers, he said, have tried to imply that there is "a theological distance between me and (Pope) Benedict XVI," when, in fact, Father Nicolas' theological studies included the then-Father Joseph Ratzinger's textbooks, which "were very interesting and had a newness and an inspiration that all of us recognized."
"The distance is a theory in the imagination of those who have written it," the superior general said.
He also said he had read several articles comparing him to Father Pedro Arrupe, who led the Jesuits 1965-83, and Father Peter-Hans Kolvenbach, his immediate predecessor.
"However, no one has yet said I'm 10 percent Elvis Presley, although one could say this and it wouldn't surprise me. But I think this is all false," he added.
The Spain-born Father Nicolas said that what is true is that he has been deeply changed and influenced by the 40 years he spent working in Asia, particularly in Japan.
"In Japan I discovered that the world wasn't what I thought it was in Spain," he said. "Their way of seeing things, even of seeing the faith, questions about various problems, is not like ours."
Father Nicolas said that studying theology in Japan in the 1960s was "like trying to refind, reformulate your faith not only in the context of the Second Vatican Council, but in the context of Asia, of Japan where Buddhism and Shintoism and other religions have had a huge influence."
"I think Asia changed me. I hope for the better, but this I cannot say," he said. "It changed me, it helped me understand others, to accept what is different, to try to understand what is different, why it is different and what can I learn from what is different."
Father Nicolas said it also taught him "to smile in the face of difficulties and human imperfections."
"In Spain, I was a bit intolerant, a bit in the line of 'everything in order,' demanding, because for me religion was still understood in the widespread way of fidelity to a series of religious practices," he said.
"But in Japan, I discovered that true religiosity is much deeper, that you must go to the heart of the person, the heart of the question when we speak of God, just as when we speak of ourselves or of human life," he said.
"It scandalizes the Japanese that we are so strict, intolerant, so unaccepting of diversity," the Jesuit said.
The new general did not answer questions from the press because, he said, he will take his orders from the decisions of the General Congregation, which will continue to work at least until the end of February.
"What is important for me now is to listen to what the General Congregation wants, how we will respond to the conversation and challenges the Holy Father addressed to us and which we are taking very seriously in our reflections, how to respond to help the church, not ourselves," he said.
In a letter to the General Congregation before Father Nicolas was elected, Pope Benedict praised the Jesuits for their great contributions to evangelization, but also urged them to reaffirm their fidelity to contested points of church doctrine, including in the area of interreligious dialogue and sexual morality.
Father Nicolas said he hoped the Jesuits would follow the principles of Mohandas Gandhi, "who said that when you speak of something you must first ask, 'Is it true?' because if it is not true, then it is not interesting. Second, 'Is it gentle, charitable, kind?' and third, 'Is it good for others?'"

chris_n on making things and pop music
February 9, 2010 | Filed Under music | Leave a Comment
I've been making things,
Out of dead cows,
But more on that later.
During my absence I took some time to taste what was out there in the real music world.
Alternative still sucks,
Modern Hip-Hop/RnB/Black People music (no racist) for the most part sucks except for R. Kelly (crazy motherfucker) and Gucci (still doing his thing from jail wordup),
Country was saved by Carrie Underwood (luv u babes),
Pop music will always be amazing [sup @taylorswift13 (love u lanky ass bitch) @selenagomez (+ her whole baby-disney crew omgzz luv u) @katyperry (xoxo) @ladygaga (love u crazy ass bitch/bro).]
Now back in unicorn fairy blog music land, here's something from blog-decades ago. Pilooski does his thing on Jarvis Cocker's "Discosong". In this case, Pilooski's 'thing' means making something sound better no matter how good it already is.
Jarvis Cocker – Discosong (Pilooski Mix)
That said, it's truly a joy going through my inbox and listening to all the rough poorly composed shit people send me because you know what? Whether it be a single lick, a nice sample, killer drums –there's at least ONE genuinely good thing in all of them.
(that one good thing might also be the silence at the end of the track)
ALSO, I am still active on:
basically all that are on the homepage.

My backlog of 'to shlog' is getting longer and longer. Bad for me, good for you. Really a lot of good shit coming around these days and I don't anticipate it slowing down anytime soon. Some of my favorites are locked down in the studio getting their chops ready to record new albums, so be ready!
Up next in the list is from Yuksek. The EP "Extraball" recently dropped, I think. It is a massive EP and features Amanda Blank's vocals with remixes by ….drumroll….omfg….Burns, Pilooski, Breakbot, and a cover by The Shoes??? WHAT.THE.FUCK.!!! MADNESSSSSS. Get this. ASAP.
Anyway, here's Breakbot's remix which is undeniably 'Breakbot'. Funk funk funk funkkkkkk. the synths and vocals. perfect for days. make you do the funky bot.
(ps: Breakbot also just signed with Ed Banger, finally. can't wait to hear what comes of this very holy matrimony)
Yuksek – Extraball (Breakbot Remix)
Alright and since anything Pilooski just kills me, here it is.
Yuksek – Extraball (Pilooski Remix)
Seriously. Pilooski edits are the standard for edits. Anyone listen to the Franki Valli 'Beggin' Compilation? Pilooski MURDERS THE SHIT SOLID. check it out asap.
Q: How do you make a classic, classic-er?

Pacific! has been a love in my life for almost 2 years now. Not to be confused with the (also awesome) band Pelifics, whom I've featured recently, Pacific! has a somewhat similar smooth sound.
This one's remixed by Fuzzz Whitaker, and I don't know shit about him, other than this track is chill2themax. end of story. (HOLLER AT ME FUZZZ)
Pacific! – Hot Lips (Fuzzz Whitaker Remix)
Next is a remix of an utter classic. (haaaaz udder). Listen. This is Findlay Brown (tite), and he's been given a tiny edit by Pilooski (MAD FUEGO K-POP). It's just the right thing to ease into right after a classy dinner party when people have a baby buzz on red wine and you're getting ready to pour the scotch.
Sit down, close your eyes, slouch down on the couch… you can take your pants off if you want to.
