Silver Lining Aviation's certified instructors create adventures like this every day as they teach visitors to soar behind the controls of sport aircrafts such as weight-shift trikes. Silver Lining's team takes prospective pilots on introductory flights that allow them to experience aircrafts such as the Evolution Trikes Weight Shift Trike and nibble on different flavors of clouds. The aviation experts also sell sport aircrafts, which patiently wait onsite as customers work through custom ground- and flight-training programs. In most cases, the flight instructors prepare their pupils for aerial navigation in as little as two weeks. They also provide 24/7 support, and cook oil soup to feed hungry aircraft.
At the Zombie Beer Fest on October 18, an age-old question will finally be answered: do zombies prefer IPAs or wheat beers? Organized by Beer City Festivals, the Halloween-themed event will celebrate the season by gathering some of Michigan's finest breweries and wineries in one eerily decorated place. Whether attendees are dressed in zombie costumes or not, they'll have the chance to walk around and sip numerous different beers, wines, ciders, meads, and spirits. Sampling cups will be supplied so that guests can see and smell the head, aroma, and color of each offering and avoid sipping from their own cupped hands. In between drinks, attendees can rock out to live music and chow down on various food options, including pizza.
At Segway Tours of Grand Rapids, guides perch customers atop gyroscopic locomotors and teach them to tame the machines during fun tours. After giving a brief safety training, the experts lead the way along sidewalks amid the downtown shops and dining venues, pausing at local attractions such as the Grand Rapids Art Museum, the Calder sculpture, and the Sixth Street dam. Guides cap sessions at eight riders, ensuring personal instruction, information, and even routes for parties who know the city. Tours set off throughout the week, barring deterrent external conditions such as lighting storms or the rebellion of local crossing guards.
Back in 1999, brothers David and Rick Kueber noticed a lag in business at their chain of video-rental shops during the summer months, when no one wanted to be cooped up inside watching movies. The two put their heads together and found a rather unconventional solution to their problem: tanning beds. They installed a new fleet of skin-bronzing machines and sat back as so many clients flocked to their shop that the brothers were forced to open an entire store just to cater to their clients? tanning demands. This was the birth of Sun Tan City. Today, what started as an experimental side business boasts more than 200 locations across 16 states.
The staff at each location maintains a meticulously clean space, where they show clients to UV beds dubbed fast, faster, fastest, and instant. The beds include features such as facial tanners and self-contained air conditioners. Alternatively, clients can opt for the UV-free, automated VersaSpa system, which swathes physiques in a DHA, plant-based bronzing solution. The liquid reacts naturally with skin?s amino acids, creating an even coat as radiant as the high beams on Helios?s chariot within 46 seconds.
Jaden James Brewery isn't the Bonga family's first foray into the world of sippable fermentation. In the same space where they now create specialty beers, they've spent years crafting wines from the fruits of Michigan's bountiful vineyards and orchards.
"So many people come for the wine, but we often get one half of a couple who says, 'I like beer,'" says Bob Bonga. The brewery's current selection includes a cream ale to be savored between bites of pretzels, a Russian Imperial Stout, and an oatmeal porter that Bob characterizes as "wonderfully dark, with roasted tones of chocolate and coffee." The juice of apples harvested in northwest Grand Rapids goes into hard ciders.
The family also prepares a short list of snacks for visitors. In the future, the Bongas may grow their menu further by distilling their own liquors.
The ghosts, ghouls, and monsters at Witch's Walk may only come out after dark, but each year it gets a little trickier to avoid them since the maze's designers keep increasing its level of difficulty. Explorers now wander through more than one mile of winding paths and switchbacks, passing by a cemetery, swamp, and snake pit before visiting the wood maze.
Witch's Walk avoids excessive blood, gore, and any occult themes, instead scaring visitors along dark paths with ghouls and monsters. It reserves the scares for the nighttime, allowing younger visitors to explore the maze safely during the day. After wandering through the maze, guests can explore the onsite gift shop for seasonal costumes, accessories, and snacks.

Cornus mas
Cornelian Cherry
Deciduous, Edible fruit, Shrubs, Trees, Decorative fruit or berries
CORNUSAll dogwoods offer attractive foliage and blossoms; some have spectacular fruit or winter bark. Leaves of many types turn brilliant colors in fall. What appear to be flower petals in many dogwoods are actually bracts—petal-like modified leaves. These surround the inconspicuous true flowers.
Native to southern Europe, Asia. Usually an airy, twiggy shrub but can be trained as a small tree (15–20 ft. high and wide). One of the earliest dogwoods to bloom, bearing clustered masses of small, soft yellow blossoms on bare twigs in mid- to late winter. Oval, 2–4-in.-long leaves turn from shiny green to yellow (or red, in some forms) in autumn. Fall color is enhanced by clusters of cherry-size, bright scarlet fruits that hang on until birds get them. Fruit can be used for preserves. In winter, flaking, mottled gray-and-tan bark provides interest. Tolerates alkaline soils.

Charming revamped dream cottage in Bayshore Beautiful
Carcary Residence is a revamped dream cottage by Nest Designs in Bayshore Beautiful, an oak-filled neighborhood in Tampa, Florida, just steps away from the bay. The 1940's home is owned by Shona and Shaun Carcary, natives of South Africa (she is a personal trainer and he is a real estate investor), who saw past "the huge workload involved but could see the home's charm and good bones," Shona says. The couple spent six years renovating the 1,500 square foot, two bedroom, two bathroom home. They painted floors, gutted and remodeled the bathrooms and the kitchen, converted the detached garage into a fitness studio and "man room," and gave the entire house a dreamy, all-white makeover.
The couple ripped out the dark brown carpeting throughout the house to reveal hardwood floors. Shona is a huge fan of white, and painted the floors, pink walls and wood fireplace mantel all the same color, Ultra Pure White by Behr. The couple also replaced the original windows.
Most of the living room furniture, including the sofa, side table, tree trunk coffee table, lighting and decorative accents, are from Tampa's Blue Moon Trading Company.
An area Shona uses as her home office is visible through the French doors. "It's where I gather my thoughts and organize my days," she says. She converted a former garden table into a desk by adding a custom glass top.
Painted stairs and risers sporting house numbers lead upstairs to the couple's bedroom. Shona purchased a different number every time she went to a hardware store, accumulating a collection over time. "I added them because I always count steps as I go up and down," she says.
The couple fashioned a stair railing from a birch branch they purchased at Michaels.
A local artisan made the dining room pendant light using materials salvaged from a chicken coop. "I love the eclectic feel of mixing old and new, repurposing items and using them in unexpected ways," Shona says.
The Carcarys completed the kitchen remodel themselves, inspired by compact kitchens with open shelving that they saw during trips to Italy and France. The tin ceiling proved to be the most challenging element, as each tile needed to be laid individually. The countertops are marble, while the kitchen island was made from barn wood floors. The overall cost of the kitchen renovation was $20,000, including appliances and materials.
The first-floor guest bedroom was kept light and airy, with both the floors and walls painted entirely white.
Shona's love of an (almost) all-white palette mixes well with the earthy, nature-inspired accents. "I have found that natural elements like wood, stone, metal and shells are what I'm drawn to," she says.
Vintage French armchairs add a touch of elegance to Shona's office. To provide some privacy from the living room, the owners added French doors, which they painted the same shade of white as the rest of the interior; they create a smooth transition between rooms.
In the master bedroom upstairs, the couple removed a closet to create the shower, which they enclosed with a glass wall to make the space feel larger and appear more open.
Shona painted the master bedroom floors black but stuck to white with the linens. The nightstand is a birdbath that Shona fitted with a custom glass top.
Shona splurged on this vintage-style shelf from Anthropologie, and uses it to display her collection of platform shoes and travel knickknacks. She's particularly fond of the leather handbag, which she purchased on a trip to Ibiza. "I love to spend time on the weekends looking for one-of-a-kind finds," she says.
Shona and Shaun did all the labor on their bathroom remodel. They sourced both the bathtub and the emerald-green and gold mosaic tile on eBay.
Shona and Shaun use the family room the most and love to unwind together in front of the TV. The number 7 is particularly meaningful to Shona, as her brother passed away on December 7. This numerical accent is a small way of honoring and remembering him in one of her favorite spaces.
The outdoor areas, like this deck that Shaun built, extend the interior with natural surfaces and touches of white. The couple loves to entertain guests here, and hosts parties and evenings with wine often.
The desk, café chair and cart bench are all vintage and from Blue Moon Trading Company.
A climbing plant shrouds the arbor leading to the converted garage, which now houses Shona's fitness studio and Shaun's home bar.
This farm table on the back deck gives Shaun and Shona plenty of opportunities to host al fresco meals.
The couple divided their detached garage into two separate rooms. To the left is Shona's fitness studio, where she works from home. These French doors lead to what Shaun calls his "man room," where he spends time lounging in front of the TV.
The bar in Shaun's room is made from a kitchen door that the couple salvaged during their remodel. The back shelf was made from a headboard they brought over from South Africa, while the walls are decorated with building materials from the school in South Africa where Shona used to work as a nursery teacher.
The couple created a backyard bathing oasis with a salvaged claw-foot tub.
Hardwood floors grace the home fitness studio, where Shona tends to clients as a personal trainer and nutrition expert.
The cottage is nestled behind grand oaks on an old brick-lined street just steps from the bay. When the Carcarys moved in, the exterior featured a mix of yellow siding, blue trim and exposed brick. The couple painted the entire house the same shade of white as the interior. Since they converted their garage into living space, they now park their cars in the driveway.
Shona is shown here with their four playful Chihuahuas, Dinky, Peatri, Bumpy and Dobby.

Casa Carrara in Buenos Aires displays minimalist design
Casa Carrara is a minimalist design by architecture firm Andres Remy Arquitectos situated on an irregular lot in Pilar, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The 7,104 square foot (660 square meters) house sits at the back of the lot and is parallel to one of the streets to open the best orientation and capture the best views. The idea of this journey was to discover the entrance as we follow the exterior stone wall. The rustic and crafted stone defines and separates the entry zones from the living spaces and is inside and outside, proposing a counterpoint to the pure white that dominates the inside of the house.
A blind and evocative entrance makes a strong impression on the house. The white of the carrara marble dominates the interior architecture. With the white walls and ceilings, the house appears to arise from within the water. The touches of color are used for small details and decorative objects, dominating the white color and the turquoise of the water.
The water that surrounds the house penetrates it in the form of the mirrored surface of the water whose novelty results in the interior cascade that emerges from the top floor and falls while painting reflections via a pane of glass. This mirror of water is reproduced outside blurring the boundaries between one and the other. Finally, emerging from the hall dispenser of the top floor, the glass cascade drains musically into and through the heart of the ground floor. These elements give the project the distinct mark of Remy–bold, creative and perhaps provocative, but always unique.

Modern renovation and extension in England: The Glass House
The Glass House is a modern renovation and extension designed by AR Design Studio in Winchester, England. The home was originally built by the Earl of Airlie in 1856 while he served as Camp Commandant at the nearby Peninsular Barracks military base and split into two more modestly sized dwellings in the 1950s. Since then, the servants' quarters had fallen into a state of disrepair after the unfortunate passing of a sole elderly owner. It remained vacant for a number of years, until the long-time occupants of the Manor House sought to retire and move into the more manageable servants' quarters which overlooked the surrounding grasslands and turn it into their dream home.
From the architect: It is not every day that a body is found buried on your building site, but on a summer's morning in 2012 this is exactly what happened while builders were laying foundations for RIBA award-winning architects AR Design Studio's latest project. By 6pm they had found another 2.
After the initial astonishment, the Police and later a team of Archaeologists were brought in who thankfully identified the remains as being of Roman origin. After a period of intense excavation, it was confirmed as a site of Archaeological importance when further evidence of Roman burials and defensive fortifications were uncovered, including the discovery of a rare Roman burial urn. Once the site was cleared of artefacts and the bodies taken to the local museum for research, work on the building could continue.
These ancient findings further added to the already rich historical context of the property situated in the town of Winchester, the old Roman capital of England. The project was to convert the original servants' quarters of the large Manor House that overlooked the surrounding grasslands. It was built by the Earl of Airlie in 1856 while he served as Camp Commandant at the nearby Peninsular Barracks military base and split into two more modestly sized dwellings in the 1950s.
Since then, the servants' quarters had fallen into a state of disrepair after the unfortunate passing of a sole elderly owner. It remained vacant for a number of years, until the long-time occupants of the Manor House sought to retire and move into the more manageable servants' quarters and turn it into their dream home.
The owner's love of glass fuelled their brief to construct a beautifully simple sculptural glass staircase and a contemporary glass extension, situated at the rear of the property in the space created by the 'C' shape of the building, which would open itself up to the garden.
The couple approached AR Design Studio Chartered Architects because of their experience in dealing with glass architecture and their interest in how this material can be used to create seamless relationships between inside and outside space, between the man-made and nature.
Hidden from view behind the buildings traditional facade, the finished extension is an elegant piece of modern contemporary glass architecture. It completely reinvents the feel and atmosphere of the previously dark and cramped servants' quarters; all within the rich and poignant historical context of the site.
The concept was to provide a clean and light architectural intervention alongside the traditional shell of the building which would positively affect the feel and functionality of the property. The spaces are designed to accentuate a play between light and dark; contrasting from the bright and open communal spaces to the more subtle and secluded, almost cave-like retreat spaces in the old house.
The existing layout was clarified; vertical voids were cut through the house to unite the cellar, ground and first floors and redirect the flow of the house to naturally draw the user towards the new glass space at the heart of the home.
The strategic placement of the large roof light floods the entrance hall with sunlight that tracks through the double-height space with the time of day and the seasons.
This extremely light and spacious frameless glass extension houses the open-plan kitchen, living and dining areas. As the delicate structure reaches over to form the walls and roof of the extension, it creates a flexible inside/outside space allowing sunlight to flood through the home and filter down gradually, creating beautiful shards of light and shadow.
As a contrast to the extension, the formal lounge, study and dining room have a more sheltered and embracing nature. Upstairs, the Glass House has 4 large double bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. The master suite has its own walk-in wardrobe and views overlooking the garden and the top of the glass extension below. All the essentials have been accounted for, in the form of utility and laundry rooms, study and WC that flank the glass box.
Timber ceramic tiling was used as an innovative alternative to traditional timber flooring because it does not discolour in the weather and is a perfect surface to compliment the underfloor heating throughout. This allowed for a seamless floor finish running from the inside to the outside onto the cantilevered patio.
The rest of the house is finished to a minimal and clean appearance to allow the functional glass structures to stand out as exquisite pieces of sculptural art in their own right.
Whilst still retaining a subtle street appearance, the finished property now renamed Clarkes, is completely transformed from its previous gloomy and decrepit nature. The modern renovation and extension creates a light, airy and open living environment bursting with traditional values, contemporary style and innovative design.

Casa 4×30 by CR2 Architecture + FGMF in Brazil
Casa 4×30 has been designed by CR2 Architecture in collaboration with FGMF Architects in São Paulo, Brazil. The home was encrusted in a row of narrow geminate houses which presented more of a challenge rather than as an architectural project. How to make the entire program of a house fit in a 4 x 30 meters lot, relying on a few illuminated surfaces. From the tiny Japanese and Dutch houses, the architects borrowed ideas to take advantage of the little space in a creative manner. The proposal was to design a conventional space for the stereotype of a middle-class family in São Paulo and turn to integrated spaces and eliminate others considered "mandatory."
The occupation of the lot was one of the major factors for the development of the project. The search for natural illumination and ventilation conditioned the emphasis on the central garden, cut in the constructed volume in order to create three facades generously bathed in light. United by a footbridge around the garden, two blocks of different sizes organize the functions of the house and require residents to enjoy the green on all displacements. The larger block focuses the living room and kitchen on the ground floor and the bedrooms upstairs; the smaller one contains supporting environments such as service area, office and vertical circulation of the house.
That choice has followed the intention of perverting the limits of the garden with retractable glass doors in order to fully integrate the living room with the external space. At this point, a conceptual crossroad: if the living room is opened onto the garden, the only option for the kitchen was facing the facade.
The tiling panel, of simple design, composes together with the polyurethane resin floor and the aluminum of the box a scenario of great simplicity and whiteness, only broken by the exuberance of the garden, on the one hand, and by the force of the black gable, on the other hand, which protects the interior from being seen from the street, on the opposite side. The obsession for the white color is not purely form, although the search for a simple space was a premise of the start-up: it is, above all, a strategy to reflect light internally, leading it to all points of the house.
The garden also plays a role in the efficiency of the house. In addition to allowing a permeable area superior to the required by law, the grassy area has a Surinam cherry tree and a bright green wall which cool naturally and create a low pressure zone. The air, cooled, crosses the living room toward the kitchen window, renewing the air and assuring appropriate thermal conditions for most of the year. In the winter, the external screen, which protects the facade from the sunset, can be collected so that the sunlight helps to warm the environment.
The volume accommodates two suites, accessible by the expanded mesh footbridge that stops to create generous headroom over the entrance passage. In this linear 'atrium' and through the expanded mesh footbridge, there is the notion of continuity of the art panel signed by the artist Fabio Flaks. With an intentional prolongation, this panel is presented to the street and defines the entrance of the house, while a discrete glass slab allows the external observer to catch a glimpse of the continuity of the piece of art, which is offered as part of the urban landscape.
On the box of the bedrooms, a large deck occupies the top floor and creates a new area of enjoyment, framed by a strip of green roof. The solarium provides access for maintenance of air-conditioning and water heating equipment, but is primarily a recreational space that complements the garden on the ground floor. For the couple who lived in an apartment, every square inch outdoors corresponds to a great achievement.
The materials used are as recyclable as the house itself, which can easily be adapted over time or simply disassembled when needed.

Double-volume dream house in Johannesburg
This stunning home of expatriates Xavier and Carine Huyberechts is situated in Johannesburg, South Africa. Xavier is an architect with GLH & Associates Architects, who designed the family's dream home, which was originally in a derelict state when they got it. There was a magic of the place, and they immediately fell in love. The home was built from scratch, full of grandeur in stateliness, intimacy in small spaces and charm in minimalism. The home possesses a quiet majesty in its open-plan, double-volume living room that seems to blend into the rolling garden, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. There is a soothing uniformity of the all-white color scheme, anchored by warm woods and brightened by the art-filled walls. The architect demonstrates a minimalist aesthetic throughout with rich and seamless tapestry of cultures that define , without pigeonholing, the house's residents.
On the ground floor, the rooms flow into each other effortlessly, and striking art from the likes of William Kentridge, Kendell Geers and Marco Cianfanelli, as well as Xavier's own impressive efforts, punctuate the walls and give the house a shot of color. The same sense of restraint in design, coupled with exuberance in art, continues upstairs, where the bedrooms are, with the master suite connected to the children's and guest rooms by a raw steel and wire walkway that cleverly echoes a suspension bridge.
Despite the crisp minimalism that prevails, this is a house with a nostalgic and sentimental heart. For instance, above the bathtub in the master bathroom are two plaster casts of Carine's torso while pregnant with their son, Kwame, and daughter, Almaz, reminiscent of primitive African fertility sculptures.

Were you disappointed by the 'Secret Life' finale? Read our most scathing comments, then give us yours!
If you enjoyed The Secret Life of the American Teenager series finale June 3, there's a good chance you watched a different show than everyone else. HollywoodLife.com readers are nothing short of outraged with the ABC Family drama's big send-off, flooding our recap with angry comments throughout the night.
In a nutshell, here's how the series ended: Amy (Shailene Woodley) called off her wedding to Ricky (Daren Kagasoff), then left him and son John behind without saying goodbye; Jack (Greg Finley) and Grace (Megan Park) settled on just being "friends"; and Adrian (Francia Raisa) ran off with Omar, proving once and for all she's nothing without a man in her life.
Adrian aside, none of the show's core characters received the happy endings they deserved — and fans were not quiet about their disappointment.
'Secret Life' Fans React To 'Awful' Ending
"I demand a new ending," commented reader Lily. "That was unsatisfying; they need to remake [it] or add a special ending. This sucks! [I] can't believe it ended with no answers. That just makes me mad that I wasted time in watching this series. Ugh, so awful!"
And that was among the more tame responses! Reader Alexa deemed the series finale to be "the worst episode ever," arguing that we should have been given a look into the future to find out what happened when Amy came back from New York.
Meanwhile, reader Rosie pointed out all the loose ends the series left untied:
Where's Rickys brother? And where's his chick?! What ever happened to rickyts mom & that girl she was dating? And Ashley? And did Amy finally end up with Ben?? And did Amy & Ricky end up working things out? They should've made a 2 hour finale to wrap up questions.
But no one came out swinging quite as hard as reader Joanna who said the finale made her "regret watching the series" altogether. Ouch!

I watched the first three seasons of this as they aired and then just finished the last two seasons on Netflix.. what an INFURIATING finale.. I am so disappointed.. and to think I could have spent all of that time starting One Tree Hill.. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL. I'll just rewrite that entire finale in my head.. there should have been a whole other season the way things were going. bad, bad choice ending it that way.. I had chosen a five star rating on the show before I had seen the finale. I was wondering how they were going to tie it all in and they simply didn't. SO MANY LOOSE ENDS..

This was the worst possible ending in a series i've ever seen!!! I became a mother very young and when this series came on it drew me in with all the real life drama that can happen in these situations when ricky and amy where in love and getting married it gave others a glimpse that its possible for such outcomes, to pull that right out from under them, well it was just heartbreaking, and a little hope crushing. i think the creators should come back with a 2 hr special of their future, and theres no way a real mother who truly accepts and embraces the responsibility of carrying and raising that child would ever leave that child.

This was my favorite show. I feel they left out to much unanswered…. and, was that a yes that Amy is madly in love with ben???? Do they end up together? What about Adrian saying that Ricky will go to Clementine? Does he? What about Ashley? What about John? Ethan? Adrian? Nora? Chloe? I always wanted ben and amy to end up together. Ben was so loyal and faithful to her, and Ricky was to sporadic until he changed. I waited the entire series for Ben to get her back, and now I'm left unknowing!!??!!?? Please make another finale?

What an incredibly depressing end. Considering the entire show based around teen girls dreaming about and striving for their individualized ideal prince charming and happy endings. How many weddings were there in this entire series? Amy marries her ex, he then marries Amy's baby daddie's ex girlfriend, who then runs off to marry her new boyfreind. Everyone in the show, including the teens parents seem to be either married, remarried, or divorced. Yet somehow they managed to leave out the most important nuptials.
Severely disappointed.
However ABC Family, its not too late to bring back the series. Or, as said previously in the comments, you could make a alternate ending, continuation, or a movie.
It would be wise to listen to your audience.
Posted at 1:27 PM on August 23, 2014
I regret watching it because Ricky and Amy didn't work it out after all they've been through and if the broke up it should have been in an earlier episode so he could go to Clementine and Amy could realize she always loved Ben. What happened to Ashley, Norah, Ethan and Kathy, Ben, Henry, and John?? I NEED ANOTHER EPISODE PEOPLE!
Posted at 8:29 PM on August 19, 2014
Just finished it and wtf kind of ending was that? We watched them grow up and mature, shared tears, and
Shared laughs and that's the ending they give us? What happens to all the characters? They didn't even bring back Ashley for the last episode? That was the worst ending and I feel like I wasted a whole lot of tears for nothing I'm so frustrated! That can't be it it isn't fair. This show should have a warning label WARNING: TERRIBLE SERIES FINALE CAUTION. Ugh I hate complaining but I hate how it ended how it did. That wasn't satisfactory and left everyone hanging. Gossip girl had a way better ending. They could have done an episode into the future that would have made everyone happy. Whatever I'm very upset right now. If anyone else wants to vent about the show with me when you finish kik me: onceuponafairytale ughhhhhh

I'm glad Amy and Ricky broke up, not to be rude. But they didn't love each other and they did deserve to be loved. However, I am mad that Amy waited so long for the break up. And I am also curious as to what happened with Ben and Amy, Ricky and Clemintine, Ethan and Kathy, and Alice and Henry.

I don't understand why it ended like this? I know that Amy was a teenager and as we all know teenagers are full of different emotions and even the show is called 'The Secret Life Of An American Teenager' so I guess it kinda makes sense that she dropped the wedding and broke up with Ricky… but this is just what I think I'm not positive about it.. I would really like to know why the writer even though I don't know who he or she is did this ending? Are we just suppose to make the own ending for each couple??Why did she or he think that this ending was alright or okay? I wish she would or he would see this and answer it Lol. :(

Im sorry but this show was the best, and like all the other viewers the ending just made my cry really bad. I watched all the reasons and all I wanted was for ricky and amy to end up together. And I was all happy but then the ending came and I cried my eyes out. Ricky did do everything for amy. All we simply wany is 1 more show. Not a while other season. Just one more show that shows us that ricky and amy make up and get married please, I hope one day that yall will make a seaon 6. Because I'll be right there watching it.

Wish secret life continued longer to see more of what was going on Ashley just disappeared does she ever come back? What about ben and amy anything with them or does she realize she should just be with Ricky and be a family or stay single. Does Adrian finally settle down with omar does it all work out.? What about khloe and the other new high school students Kathy and Ethan. Hope yall change yall minds and continue the show or atleast do another finale.

This was the worst show ever only because of that horrible ending it killed the whole show for me why would someone end this series like this so sad & depressing & leaving people with alot of questions !!!! you know who ever thought about this ending could of atleast made it happy for all the people on the tv show this was so sucky i hate the show now hate it & the director & everybody in it you all suckkkkk !!!!
Posted at 12:48 AM on July 6, 2014
I also regret watching it. At least the crew should've said how all of the characters ended up, like in trios I wish I could go to the producer or someone to tell me how everyone ends up. I'm not mad, I'm angry! Amy and Ricky were meant for each other, Ricky changed his whole life for Amy, and this is what he gets. I don't even know my feelings right now, this show kind of feels real to me. I will be using a full 2 or more boxes of tissues
Posted at 1:11 AM on July 4, 2014
I regret watching this show. I spent 5 years watching this show. I invested my time in to every episode. And then to watch the finale, I am just appauled. I definitely wish that I wouldnt have spent all my tears on this show like when jack got hurt and adrian lost the baby… .I mean Grace stayed with jack in the hospital and cried. I thought that they would have ended up gettong married in the end. We should have gotten like a glimpse in the future or something! I am SO dissapointed in the writer. To make every episode incredible and worth watching and then to just wreck it all and break all the happiness in the FINALE. WOW. JUST WOW. she made grace out like a total B****. like why would she be celebrating. ? i mean i thouht they would have loved eachother forever after i saw them sharing those kisses. So sweet. How could she be so insensitive and lie to him and tease him all the time? I MEAN THEY LOVED EACHOTHER . I wish they would have atleast hugged good bye in stead of "its been fun" "yup" then grace partying. So dissapointing really. Wish I could have seen anne get married and seehow george And kathleen ended up. what happened to ashley? Did jack end up with Madison? If so, what happened to Lauren? They kinda just dropped Ash, I guess in paris. How does kathy and ethans relationship stand? Why did they make him out to be such a jerk? Like wtf. Why!? what about ben? Does he end up with Amy? Do ricky and amy remain friends? Does he end up living happily ever after? Wish I couldve seen a 6th season or more to see john h
Grow up. I LOVED that show so much. AND THEN to see the finale!?!? JUST WOW. even megan park (girl who plays grace) didnt like the ending. IT WAS THE WRITERS FAULT!!!! ugh hope abc family can learn to write some shows with some happy endings….. I wish they ALL had happy endings and wernt so selfish about college . I mean like why cant you be , married AND go to separate colleges? Come on grace! Whyw ouldnt you let jack go with you?

Again, we understand why LucasArts isn't going to bring things like bare tits into a Star Wars game, but it's not like they don't tease us with them. Far from being a strait-laced Imperial officer, pilot Juno Eclipse spends the game with her jacket open, showing off ample cleavage behind her low-cut tank top. And seeing as she's being touted as Starkiller's love interest, it only makes sense that he - and we - should get to see what's beyond that cleavage at some point.
And Christ, have you seen what Maris Brood is wearing?
We're just saying, is all.
If there's one especially dark spot in Force Unleashed, it's Darth Vader. The game represents a stunning return to form for the Dark Lord of the Sith, turning the whiny bitch we've come to hate back into the dynamo of pure evil that we used to love. He's once again hateful, violent and in the habit of killing people for reasons that range from "failure" to "he was just there, I don't know."
His evil was never more palpable than when we played as Vader in Force Unleashed's first level. Everything about him emanates raw, barely restrained anger, from his lurching movements to the way he dismissively Force-chokes Wookiees and hurls them aside. But what struck us the most was his herky-jerky Frankenstein walk. Vader doesn't walk, run or stroll - he stomps, and if he's stomping toward a Wookiee, that Wookiee is about to get its shit cut off. So it got us thinking: why not use Vader's incredible stomping power for one of the most horrific execution techniques of all time?
Above: Imperial History X
It might be a stretch for Star Wars, but not for videogames - after all, we've already seen the "good guys" in Gears of War smash a few jaws against a few curbs. Sure, there aren't any curbs on Kashyyk, but Vader's a smart guy. He can improvise.
Over the course of Force Unleashed, you will hurl men around like ragdolls. You will rip chunks off the environment and send it screaming into your enemies' faces at high speeds. You will even unleash the forbidden destructive powers of Force lightning.
But you will never, ever, EVER use the Force to open a pickle jar.
Maybe it's something we can hope to see in the sequel?

The Plum in the Golden Vase or, Chin P'ing Mei (eBook): Volume Five: The Dissolution
Format: | eBook |
File type: | EPUB DRM |
Available for immediate download
To download this eBook, simply 'Add to basket' and pay at the Checkout as normal. Don't forget to download Digital Editions too, if you don't already have it.
This is the fifth and final volume in David Roy's celebrated translation of one of the most famous and important novels in Chinese literature. The Plum in the Golden Vase or, Chin P'ing Mei is an anonymous sixteenth-century work that focuses on the domestic life of Hsi-men Ch'ing, a corrupt, upwardly mobile merchant in a provincial town, who maintains a harem of six wives and concubines. The novel, known primarily for its erotic realism, is also a landmark in the development of the narrative art form—not only from a specifically Chinese perspective but in a world-historical context.
Written during the second half of the sixteenth century and first published in 1618, The Plum in the Golden Vase is noted for its surprisingly modern technique. With the possible exception of The Tale of Genji (ca. 1010) and Don Quixote (1605, 1615), there is no earlier work of prose fiction of equal sophistication in world literature. Although its importance in the history of Chinese narrative has long been recognized, the technical virtuosity of the author, which is more reminiscent of the Dickens of Bleak House, the Joyce of Ulysses, or the Nabokov of Lolita than anything in earlier Chinese fiction, has not yet received adequate recognition. This is partly because all of the existing European translations are either abridged or based on an inferior recension of the text. This complete and annotated translation aims to faithfully represent and elucidate all the rhetorical features of the original in its most authentic form and thereby enable the Western reader to appreciate this Chinese masterpiece at its true worth.

A Slam Pad is an inexpensive way increasing your magazine's overall length. The extra length is usually required when using a magwell. Since the Slam Pads are made of rubber, the pads will offer your magazines a little protection when your magazines are dropped during a reloads.
Please note that the adhesive on the Slam Pads is not intended to be a permanent solution.

The reason for the two holes is simple. If you own a XDm in 9x19, you will notice that the baseplate release is not in the center of the magazine. Because of the two holes in our Slam Pad, this product will fit ALL XD and XDm magazines.

Rated 4 out of 5 by uhabash Great Hotel, but unsafe !!
The hotel was great and the room was specious and fabulous "Club Corner Room"
However, We experienced an earthquake while we were taking our breakfast by 12:30 pm in club lounge which is allocated in higher floor of the building. we were the only one there before the 3 of the staff just walk in in order to arrange and check the buffet. and all the sudden the building was shaking and moving right and left as we can see from the panoramic windows. we rushed to exit door as the staff help us to carry our baby. we use the stairs from 17th or 18th floor to go down to lobby and when we reached their I told the front desk why you didn't use safety alarm ?! they told me it is normal and used to have experience such that every year!! what relaxing !!oooh boy, it was scary as the building shaking from the highest floor
anyway, their safety for their guests is "ZERO" and I wonder how such 5 stars hotel act like that. our vacation was terrible because of this experience.

Predicting earthquakes

NAPA, CA - AUGUST 24: A worker takes a picture of bottles of olive oil and vinegar that were thrown from the shelves of an olive oil store following a reported 6.0 earthquake on August 24, 2014 in Napa, California. A 6.0 earthquake rocked the San Francisco Bay Area shortly after 3:00 am on Sunday morning causing damage to buildings and sending at least 70 people to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

There was a little bit of good news that came out of yesterday's earthquake.
A few Berkeley scientists were able to get a 10-second warning BEFORE the shaking reached them. That alert came from a prototype of an earthquake early warning system.
Its success yesterday is prompting calls from officials to expanded it to the entire state. We talked about it with our science reporter, Sanden Totten.

Social solar innovations give insight into how solar energy has the potential to transform how people access (and are given access to) electricity in the Majority World. In many parts of the globe, the sun is an abundant resource but it isn't harnessed the way it could be the most effective in making renewable energy available to those who don't have access—and that's one in five people who lack access to electricity.
The United Nations recently released a report called Sustainability and Equity, which called for universal access to renewable energy. What's more, the UN emphasized how gender inequality affects sustainability. "Evidence suggests that if all women could exercise reproductive choice, population growth would slow enough to bring greenhouse gas emissions below current levels," says the report.
These social solar innovations point to the importance of not only recognizing the inequalities that exist between and within countries, but also trying to do something about it through solution-driven initiatives.

I have searched but did not find anything...
This is my first year gardening. I have planted six tomatoes in a raised bed (Len Pense) garden. The plants are about 4' tall and healthy looking. They bloomed and then the flowers dried up and fell off and there is not a single tomato on any of the plants. Peppers are the same way. Can anyone give me any advice on what the problem might be? Thanks for any help. Dolores |
Follow-Up Postings:
Assuming that the plants are getting at least six hours of sun a day, the next blossoms you get, tickle them so that they'll self-polinate. |
It is called "blossom-drop". Search that term and you will find all kinds of discussions about it. There is a FAQ here to that covers it, its causes, and things you can do to help well. Dave |

If the temperatures are too high or too low, the blossoms will drop. And if you're giving the plants too much nitrogen, the plants will concentrate on producing foliage rather than fruit. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Blossom drop FAQ
I was concerned about the same thing early in June when I had lots of blossoms but no fruit set. That same week, I saw that some fruit had set on my Costoluto Genovese and Cherry tomatoes. There were other plants where it seemed like no fruit was setting and I had tons of blossoms. Fast forward one month later and it is no longer the case. Every tomato plant has fruit setting. Some with way more setting than others. The one that seems to be rather difficult is Green Zebra. I have been search and searching for that tiny, baby Green Zebra tomato and only just found one today. We've recently had some high temperatures in San Francisco and I think that's what finally did it. I just proved to myself that tomatoes are finicky depending on the variety. |

Thank you all for responding! I think the Blossom Drop FAQ explained it - we had temps in the high 90's with heat index of 105-110 for several days last week. It has been in the 80's this week and there are some new blossoms and I finally found one marble size tomato last night. Dolores |

I want to throw in my two cents. What kind of fertilizer are you using? Be sure to not use a fertilizer that is high in nitrogen. Nitrogen promotes plant growth. I use a 5-10-10 fertilizer. When you look at fertilizer the first number is always the nitrogen content. Nitrogen is great when you want a nice green lawn or shrubs; but not for tomatos. If you use a high nitrogen fertilizer you will have beautiful green tomato bushes with very few (if any) flowers. Also, every few weeks dilute one tablespoon of Epsom Salt per gallon of water. Get it at any drug store for less than $2 for a pint size container that will last me all summer. I got the following from the New Tribune: "Just as "Milk does a body good," Epsom Salt may be one of the most perfect nutrients for flowers and plants. And mid-to-late spring is the ideal time to nourish the soils and roots of your favorite foliage and flowers with this inexpensive and easy-to-use compound. According to the Epsom Salt Council, research indicates Epsom Salt can help seeds germinate; make plants grow bushier; produce more flowers; increase chlorophyll production; improve phosphorus and nitrogen uptake; and deter pests, including slugs and voles". Sounds good to me. Tom |

This is a very beautiful ring and exactly what I was looking for. This was a gift for my wife who always wanted an emerald cut diamond. The stone is exceptional.

Their experts wisely suggested I get this band since my fiancee has petite hands. This band complements her hands and helps makes the diamond look bigger than it is. I choose an excellent cut grade. She said "yes" :)

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

If there was any one man who articulated the anger, the struggle, and the beliefs of African Americans in the 1960s, that man was Malcolm X. His Autobiograohy is the result of a unique collaboration between Alex Haley and Malcolm X, whose voice and philosophy resonate from every page, just as his experience and his intelligence continue to speak to millions.
