First off, the Lubitel. An original one, from the USSR. I had to get the manual translated when I first received it in order to understand what was what. I still have the translation, and the original manual. Perhaps that would be a neat initial foray back into the world of lomo.

A study of the substantial evidence for a former race of giants in North America and its 150-year suppression by the Smithsonian Institution.
Drawing on 400 years of newspaper articles and photos, first person accounts, state historical records, and illustrated field reports, Richard J. Dewhurst reveals not only that North America was once ruled by an advanced race of giants but also that the Smithsonian has been actively suppressing the physical evidence for nearly 150 years. He shows how thousands of giant skeletons have been unearthed at Mound Builder sites across the continent, only to disappear from the historical record. He examines other concealed giant discoveries, such as the giant mummies found in Spirit Cave, Nevada, wrapped in fine textiles and dating to 8000 BCE; the hundreds of red-haired bog mummies found at sinkhole "cenotes" on the west coast of Florida and dating to 7500 BCE; and the ruins of the giants' cities with populations in excess of 100,000 in Arizona, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Louisiana. Dewhurst shows how this suppression began shortly after the Civil War and transformed into an outright cover-up in 1879 when Major John Wesley Powell was appointed Smithsonian director, launching a strict pro-evolution, pro-Manifest Destiny agenda. He also reveals the 1920s' discovery on Catalina Island of a megalithic burial complex with 6,000 years of continuous burials and over 4,000 skeletons, including a succession of kings and queens, some more than 9 feet tall--the evidence for which is hidden in the restricted-access evidence rooms at the Smithsonian.Softcover, 368 pages, 92 black & white illustrations

The exiled prince of the fire nation, he searches to capture the avatar so he can regain his honour.
Zuko is the eldest child of Fire Lord Ozai and Ursa, brother to Princess Azula. Growing up in the capital, he was always distant from his father and closer to his mother, a much more gentle person that his sister. During a meeting with Azulon, Ozai offends his brother Iroh as he is ordered to kill Zuko. Ursa sacrifices herself by going through an unseen plot that allows Ozai to be Lord. Zuko is easily recognized by the characteristic burn scar on the left side of his face given to him by his abusive father, Fire Lord Ozai shortly before his banishment due to an disagreement they had in the war room and during Agni Kai: a firebending duel. On his journey to capture the Avatar, he is assisted by his uncle Iroh in Firebending training.
Zuko is a main character in the Avatar series created by Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino. Avatar: The Last Airbender first began airing on February 21, 2005 on Nickelodeon. While he is the major antagonist for the first season, he evolves as a character as he discovers what he wants in life before fulfilling the role as a firebending master.
His first appearance was in Avatar: The Last Airbender - Episode 1 "The Boy in the Iceberg", and his first comic appearance was in Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Lost Adventures Book 2 CH. 8 "Going Home Again". His character is voiced by Dante Basco, and the Japanese dub is performed by Tomoyoshi Fukazu.
From the beginning, we see the drive to find the Avatar and destroy him from Zuko. It really drives the life and firebending skill inside of him. However, he is changes massively as the series plays out. As his drive to kill the Avatar starts wo wain, he loses his firebending. He comes to find out that firebening is powered by the passion in one's heart, and in the beginning his passion was to kill the Avatar. So he was hurt and confused, but as learns how to love and care for someone, as well as respect, he eventually gets his firebending back and is more powerful than ever.
Zuko's long search for the Avatar eventually led to the south pole, and he found him at the Southern Water Tribe village. The young boy was named Aang, and he surrendered to avoid the civilians being injured. However, he escaped the ship with the help of two water tribe siblings, Katara and Sokka, on Aang's air bison, Appa. The ship was in need of repairs and docked at the port lead by Commander Zhao. Zuko and Iroh tried to hide the existence of the Avatar, but he had secretly interrogated Zuko's crew. Their conflict led to the two engaging in an Agni Kai duel. It was a tough fight, but Zuko won, and was saved by Iroh when Zhao tried striking from behind after the match had ended.
The chase then led to Kyoshi Island. Aang and his friends were being sheltered by the village founded by Avatar Koshi, and Zuko began setting the town on fire to find the Avatar. After a short battle, Aang escaped again on Appa, but also put out the fires using the water blast of the sea monster called the Unagi. The next lead brought Zuko further toward the Earth Kingdom and to one of the Fire Nation Prison Rigs for earthbenders. Though, Aang was gone and had destroyed much of the rig by the time he had arrived. What he did find was the necklace of Katara. Days later, Iroh had been captured by Earth Kingdom soldiers, despite seeing the Avatar's bison. Zuko chose to save his uncle.
While investigating Senlin Village, Zuko learned that the Avatar was headed to Crescent Island, home of the Fire Temple of Avatar Roku. Zuko set a trap with the Fire Sages, and managed to capture Aang before he slipped into the temple's sealed chamber. Aang and his friends escaped the temple with the aid of the spirit of Roku, who destroyed the temple. Zuko had all the Fire Sages arrested.
While Iroh was searching of a white lotus piece for his Pai Sho board, they learned about some pirates who had been robbed of a waterbending scroll by Katara. He hired these pirates to help him capture the Katara, and tempted her with her mother's necklace. She refused, but they still managed to find and capture Aang and Sokka. Though, the pirates betrays Zuko when they learned Aang is the Avatar and wanted to sell him to the Fire Nation for a higher price. Zuko and the pirate captain fought, and Iroh stopped them to reveal Aang and his friends had escaped in the chaos of their infighting.
Zuko and Aang worked together in their adult lives to create Republic City, a center of peace for all four nations. Building and working in the city, the two spent their lives to make it a peaceful place for all citizens of the world. After the death of Aang, the new Avatar is found to be Korra as Zuko has retired from his role as the Fire Lord and has given the title to his daughter, exploring the world as an ambassador of peace.
As the son of the Fire Lord, Zuko is gifted in the art of firebending as most modern firebenders take their power from rage and anger. Always in the shadow of his sister and her skills, Zuko has been shown as a fierce fighter but a much better swordsman, especially with his alter ego The Blue Spirit. When Zuko loses his anger and agrees to teach Aang the art of firebending, he discovers that his power is bare minimal. They decide to find the original source of firebending from the last dragons in the world. Zuko realizes that firebending doesn't come from anger but energy and life itself. He also learns the art of how to manipulate lightning from Iroh and how to redirect it.
In the years after the end of the war, Zuko becomes the Fire Lord as he works with King Kuei to start the Harmony Restoration movement in order to remove Fire Nation colonists back to the Fire Nation. He has Aang promise him that if he were ever to become someone like his father, he wants him to kill him. An assassin tries to take his life as he combats her, returning her to the mayor of Yu Dao. The mayor verbally attacks Zuko as Zuko realizes that Earth Kingdom citizens and Fire Nation colonists have lived in harmony. He tries to rescind the Movement as Aang and Katara attack him. He explains the situation as they agree to hold a summit with Kuei to determine the course of actions.
Zuko appears in all major Avatar video games: The Last Airbender (in a minor role), The Burning Earth, and Into the Inferno where he is a playable character. He also appears at the antagonist in the film adaption of the game The Last Airbender.
Zuko appears in the live action film The Last Airbender as a major antagonist as do the other members of the Fire Nation. Fulfilling his role during the events of Book One, he is portrayed by Dev Patel.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
"Tex-Mex" (portmanteau of Texan and Mexican) is a term describing a regional American cuisine that blends food products available in the United States and the culinary creations of Mexican-Americans influenced by Mexican cuisine. The cuisine has spread from border states such as Texas and those in the Southwestern United States to the rest of the country as well as Canada. Tex-Mex is most popular in the state of Texas. Tex-Mex is very different from the Southwest cuisine found in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah. In some places, particularly outside of Texas, "Tex-Mex" is used to describe a localized version of Mexican cuisine. It is common for all of these foods to be referred to as "Mexican food" in Texas, other parts of the United States, and some other countries. In other ways, it is Southern cooking using the commodities from Mexican culture. In many parts of the U.S. outside of Texas the term is synonymous with Southwestern cuisine.[1][2][3]
Wikibooks Cookbook has a recipe/module on |
Some ingredients are common in Mexican cuisine, but other ingredients not typically used in Mexico are often added. Tex-Mex cuisine is characterized by its heavy use of shredded cheese, meat (particularly beef and pork), beans, and spices, in addition to Mexican-style tortillas. Dishes such as Texas-style chili con carne and fajitas are all Tex-Mex inventions.[citation needed] Moreover, Tex-Mex has imported flavors from other spicy cuisines, such as the use of cumin (common in Indian cuisine, but used in only a few central Mexican recipes).
The word "Tex-Mex" first entered the English language as a nickname for the Texas Mexican Railway, chartered in southern Texas in 1875.[citation needed] In train schedules published in the newspapers of the 1800s the names of railroads were abbreviated. The Missouri Pacific was called the Mo. Pac. and the Texas-Mexican was abbreviated Tex. Mex. In the 1920s, the hyphenated form was used in American newspapers in reference to the railroad and to describe people of Mexican ancestry who were born in Texas.[4]
In the mission era, Spanish and Mexican cuisines were combined in Texas as in other parts of the northern frontier of New Spain.[citation needed] However, the cuisine that would come to be called Tex-Mex actually originated with Tejanos (Texans of Mexican descent) as a mix of native Mexican and Spanish foods when Texas was part of New Spain and later Mexico.
From the South Texas region between San Antonio, Rio Grande Valley and El Paso, this cuisine has had little variation, and from earliest times has always been influenced by the cooking in the neighboring northern states of Mexico.[citation needed] The ranching culture of South Texas and Northern Mexico straddles both sides of the border. A taste for cabrito (kid goat), barbacoa de cabeza (barbecued beef heads), carne seca (dried beef), and other products of cattle culture is common on both sides of the Rio Grande. In the 20th century, Tex-Mex took on such Americanized elements as yellow cheese, as goods from the United States became cheap and readily available.
In much of Texas, the cooking styles on both sides of the U.S. - Mexico border were the same until a period after the U.S. Civil War. With the railroads, American ingredients and cooking appliances became common on the U.S. side.[5]
A 1968 Los Angeles Times feature claimed "[i]f the dish is a combination of Old World cooking, hush-my-mouth Southern cuisine and Tex-Mex, it's from the Texas Hill Country."[6]
The Oxford English Dictionary supplies the first-known uses in print of "Tex-Mex" in reference to food, from a 1963 article in the New York Times Magazine, and a 1966 item in the Great Bend (Kansas) Tribune.[7] Diana Kennedy, an influential food authority, explained the distinctions between Mexican cuisine and Americanized Mexican food in her 1972 book The Cuisines of Mexico. Robb Walsh of the Houston Press said the book "was a breakthrough cookbook, one that could have been written only by a non-Mexican. It unified Mexican cooking by transcending the nation's class divisions and treating the food of the poor with the same respect as the food of the upper classes."[8] Another early instance in print appeared in the Mexico City News in 1973.[citation needed]
Paris's first Tex-Mex restaurant opened in March 1983. After the 1986 release of the film Betty Blue, Tex-Mex cuisine's popularity in Paris increased.[9]
Award-winning Texas food writer Robb Walsh (of the Houston Press) updated Kennedy and put her comments regarding Tex-Mex cooking into historical and sociopolitical perspective in The Tex-Mex Cookbook: A History in Recipes and Photos (New York: Broadway Books, 2004).

Around the "Disney" World – Adventureland
When you look at Walt Disney World's parks, hotels, and restaurants, there is one thing that really sets them apart from other parks, hotels, and restaurants that you might find in your hometown (or even at other theme parks).

Get past a motivational brick wall
I recently got my first article published by another blog. So far I've had over 30 positive comments on the article which I'm really pleased about. Below is an extract from the full article. Head over to freelanceswitch.com too read the whole article and let me know what you think in the comments there or on this post.
"If that project your working on is getting on your nerves or just getting you down then stop fretting. Just move onto something else. Yeah you may have set aside time to work on this project or you might have a deadline approaching but if you're not doing anything then it's wasted time. Try moving onto a different project and see if that can get you motivated again. Spending an hour on a blog post or a t-shirt design is a good way to get you back in the mood."
I hope you find the article useful and/or interesting and if you have any ideas for future articles then drop me a message.

According to this report in Crain's New York Business, "Dog-bite claims for U.S. insurers climbed 5.5% last year to 17,359,
breaking the record from 2003, as New York had the costliest attacks
among states with the most incidents." Now, the article doesn't say that claims in New York itself had increased, and says nothing about New York City. But given the increasing unleashing of dogs nationwide, one wonders how this squares with off-leashers' claims that their pet cause reduce incidents of dog bites.

NY Times--Dog/Bird Issue in Prospect Park
From today's Times:
But this time of year, between the throngs
trying to glimpse the prothonotary warblers, the yellow-bellied
flycatchers and other migrants making their way up the coast, and the
Brooklynites trying to give their corgis and springer spaniels a few
moments of freedom and fresh air, it has been difficult to find a middle
The conflict, at its root, is about basic
animal nature: Dogs distress birds and can trample the delicate
underbrush where birds feed and nest. Bird watchers say they have been
answered with exclamations of "Nazi!," "creep!," R-rated curses and,
occasionally, "I'm going to kill you," when asking dog owners to respect the laws, which permit untethered animals in three meadows only after 9 p.m. and before 9 a.m.
. . .
The Parks Enforcement Patrol has responded with two plainclothes
operations this year, said Meghan Lalor, a spokeswoman for the parks
department. So far this year, the department has issued 141 dog-related
summonses in Prospect Park, including for unleashed dogs, compared with
171 in all of 2013 and 59 the year before.

Dog As Deadly Weapon
Mr. Austin, 23, was arrested on charges of menacing, assault, attempted
assault and criminal possession of a weapon. "Namely," the indictment
reads, "a pit bull dog."
The case, from August 2012, is a rare example of a New Yorker's being
arrested on a weapons possession charge, a misdemeanor, for a dog.
Courts around the country have long grappled with the question of canine
weaponization. Over the years, judges have mostly arrived at the same
conclusion: if you use Fido as a weapon, he becomes one.

Green-Wood Cemetery Dog; Dead Plover
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
From Maine Audubon
On Monday, July 15, our biologists received concerning news. The Scarborough Marsh Audubon Center called the Piping Plover/Least Tern Project office to report that a dead piping plover fledgling (learning to fly) had been delivered to the Center. The citizen who brought in the plover witnessed the bird being attacked by an off-leash dog.
The death of this plover fledgling was particularly devastating as it had been the only chick to hatch from its brood. The parents had chosen a rather challenging spot to nest on Pine Point Beach in Scarborough, where dogs and foot-traffic cause a constant disturbance to the adults' incubation of their eggs.
. . . .
We work hard to ask dog owners to please leash their pets in areas where piping plovers are nesting and foraging. The nesting areas are marked with signs and symbolic fencing in the form of stake and twine. Being dog lovers ourselves, we understand that dogs need their exercise, but we also know that it is in a dog's nature to want to chase anything that moves. It is the dog owner's responsibility to leash their pet in areas where endangered piping plovers make their nests.
The incident on July 15 demonstrates that dogs are a very real threat to wildlife. We remind all beach-goers that piping plovers are an endangered species in Maine and protected by Endangered Species Act. The death of a bird can warrant a federal and state investigation. When situations such as this occur, we rely on witnesses to gather all available information so that we can prevent other violations in the future.

Sandhya Shenoy U., who passed out of the National Institute of Technology - Karnataka (NIT-K), with an M.Sc. degree in Chemistry, was a cynosure of all eyes at the institute's seventh convocation on Wednesday.
Ms. Shenoy, a first rank-holder, was presented with two gold medals at the convocation. She has a CGPA (cumulative grade point average) score of 10 out of 10.
According to a senior professor at the institute, this is a rare achievement.
Speaking to The Hindu, Ms. Shenoy attributed her success to her teachers. She said she had topped in all subjects in the four-semester course.
Ms. Shenoy, who is doing research (Ph.D.) on nanofluids at the NIT-K, said she was interested to take up teaching as her profession.
She said she got an opportunity to teach first year M.Sc. students while she was doing her research. Later she developed a penchant for teaching, Ms. Shenoy added.
Subhashini V., a gold medal winner in B.Tech. (Information Technology), said she was doing M.Tech. at the Indian Institute of Technology-Madras. After completing M.Tech., she wants to take up research in information technology. She said she might also opt for teaching.
Ms. Subhashini said that talented engineering graduates should also take up teaching as there was a dearth of faculty.
Brinda G., who won a gold medal in B.Tech. (Metallurgical and Materials Engineering), said she was employed in a company at Baroda. She intends to do post-graduation and take up research.

Betty Rides All Mountain Skinny Cargo Pant - Women's
? Share a...
Sick, but not skinny enough!
I love these pants, I ordered a Medium, and I am about 130 lbs, and about 5'7. They are great in length and fit well on the hips and waist, i would of however liked them a little slimmer and had hoped they were slimmer through the leg than advertised. I love the colour and all the pockets, but as my legs are quite skinny, getting a tight fit from these didnt quite happen.
Nice Pants
Color was much lighter than described. Great fit just not the right color for me :(
look cool
I bought the steel blue color. Although it's a bit loose at waist but it fits well after adjusting the back waist elastic band. I love it cos it doesn't look bulky as other snow pants, the pocket and zipper details are very delicated.
Love the pants, Sizing hard.
These pants are great the pockets are amazing which is why I purchased them in first place, I need room to carry lots of stuff. That being said, the fit was difficult for me, I have an athletic body type, I'm very small through the hips and thighs, but any heavier through the thighs. I had to send my first order back for a large (ordered a medium) not because they didn't fit but because they were tight, which is not how I want to wear my snowboard pants. The large are very big in the waist and hips but I decided since I really like them I can wear a belt. So, in shorter terms if you're bigger in the legs size up otherwise these pants are awsome!!! order your normal size and you'll love them.
My husband bought me these pants for xmas and I love everything about them...color ( i got the blue), warmth, style, etc. but the size is off. I am 5'11" so he bought me a large and although they fit in length they are HUGE in the waist. I usually wear a size 4 or 6 in regular pants and even with a belt and base layer these pants slide right off. I'm returning them and getting a medium instead.
Good Color-Tight Seat
I got these in purple and the color is great, kind of a heathery purple and a bit lighter than pictured.
My only issue is they fit me right everywhere but the butt where it's pretty tight. I don't have a huge butt, but it's definitely not flat. At first I thought I might have to send em back but I gave them a chance and sure enough they worked out great on the mountain.I had plenty of movement, and they kept me really warm for a full night of riding. Unless you order a size up you can really only fit some base layer pants underneath comfortably, but really that's all you need.
There are a few more pockets than I actually use but they will probably come in handy in spring when I ditch my coat on the warm days. Also, the cuff hitch up is pretty sweet for keeping yer cuffs out of the slush, except the gaiters still are a little long and drag anyways.
Is the purple true to color and what color...
Is the purple true to color and what color are the zippers?
yes true color and zippers are silver

Two cakes whose combined ages add up to 170 years give a whole new meaning to the term 'holiday leftovers.'
The first cake, in Minnesota, just celebrated its 100th birthday with a bash attended by about 120 people.
"Usually, you throw a birthday party and bring a cake, but this party was for the cake," Pierre Girard, the cake's owner, told ABCNews.com with a laugh.
Girard said the cake was a gag gift in 1994 from a friend who was a retired antique dealer. An attorney handling an estate sale for an elderly woman who had passed away gave it to the dealer.
"They wrapped it up and gave it to me and I brought it home from that dinner and put it on my dining room table," Girard said. "When I put Christmas things away, I just couldn't put it away."
When Girard took a closer look at the cake's box, he saw that it said, "Xmas cake baked in Dec. 1911″ from the Rose Garden Florist in Detroit. On the bottom of the box, it said, "Xmas cake baked in year 1911 by my mother's brother Alex, died Dec. 27. Was operated on Xmas Day."
Girard did some research and believes that the cake was an English-inspired Victorian cake.
"They used to have a Christmas cake that they would eat and then let it dry out and put it away until the following year when they would soak it in brandy or rum and rebuild the cake adding back on to the layers," he said.
Girard believes that after the death in the family that used to re-build the cake yearly, they chose to keep it and preserve it. He thinks soaking it in alcohol is what preserved the cake and its smell.
"You can smell a spice smell to it. It doesn't smell bad," Girard said. "It's hard as a rock, with a cinnamon clove type smell."
The second cake won't be celebrating its centennial for another 30 years, but is being auctioned off for its 70th birthday.
The 1941 fruitcake is from a Kroger's grocery story in Cincinnati, Ohio. It was discovered tucked away in the basement of a house during a home estate auction, run by the Elite Estate Group.
"The cake is still in its original tin, never been opened and has the original label on the box," Larry Chaney, owner of the auction company, told ABCNews.com.
The cake came with a note dated May 20, 1971 that read:
"This fruitcake is one of six purchased by the undersigned during Christmas Week of 1941. During its 30 years of life the cake has traveled thousands of miles and has been subjected to all types of climatic conditions and shocks. We are moving again and wish to return the cake to its makers—The Kroger Company."
It is being auctioned off by the Elite Estate Group and the money will go to a local charity that helps the needy. So far, the highest bid is $125 and the bidding ends at 8 p.m. on Dec. 22.
Chaney said he knows of a number of people who are sitting back and waiting to bid later today. He has received phone calls from interested buyers in Hollywood, Florida, North Carolina and South Dakota among other states.
A number of the callers have inquired about whether it would be possible to sample the cake, but samples are not being allowed before the sale.
"People tell us that they'd be willing to try it," Chaney said. "It's just a neat novelty."
While the fruitcake will have a new home by Christmas Eve, Girard's cake will be taking center stage as an annual Christmas decoration and he doesn't know yet what its future holds.
"I'm 66 so I know I'm going to need to find it a permanent home at one point," Girard said. "Since it's been around 100 years, I'd hate to leave it for a family member and have it get thrown away, but I don't know if the Smithsonian would be interested in it."

Ensign Resigned to Avoid Testimony to Senate Ethics Committee |
By: David Dayen Friday April 22, 2011 3:40 pm |
The FEC is hopelessly broken at this stage, but the Senate Ethics Committee appears to have taken its role seriously, and they aren't going to bury the report just because Ensign would rather run and hide than face up to his actions. They cannot fully disclose the materials gathered over the course of the investigation, but the public statement has the potential to be damning. And they could choose to make a referral to the Justice Department for criminal charges as well.

Senate Stimulus: Steal from the Poor to Give to the Affluent |
By: emptywheel Wednesday February 11, 2009 8:32 am |
ProPublica has done a comparison of the House and Senate stimulus packages which shows in stark fashion the degree to which the Senate bill steals from the poor to give to the affluent. The Senate bill gives more in tax cuts to the upper middle class–in the form of the AMT patch and the house flipping subsidy–than they give in all the programs targeted to the poor.
The Grassley-Isakson-Coburn-Collins-Bad Nelson Bill |
By: emptywheel Sunday February 8, 2009 7:45 am |
We really shouldn't be calling the Senate stimulus bill the Collins-Nelson compromise bill. We ought to be calling it the Grassley-Isakson-Coburn-Collins-Bad Nelson bill, to memorialize where all the stupid comes from in the bill.

By Tom Hatheway: Wladimir Klitschko, 238 unified the IBF and WBO heavyweight titles with a methodical unanimous 12-round decision tonight over Sultan Ibragimov, 219, in New Yorks Madison Square Garden. Ibragimov controlled the first two rounds by being the busier fighter as Klitschko was content to use his jab as a range finder on his opponent.. Klitschko was able to start controlling the action with his jab from round three until the end of the bout. The eighth round was a good round as both fighters landed some nice shots. Round nine was huge for Wladimir, 50-4 (44), as he landed a nice 4 punch salvo that sent Sultan, 22-1-1 (17) in to the ropes that surely would have been a knockdown if they had not kept him on his feet. Both fighters seemed fairly ineffective from round 10 onwards with Ibragimov clinching and Klitschko jabbing, and controlling the action. I had the score 118-110. The Referees scorecards were: 119-110, 117-111, and 118-110. In world title fights Klitschko is now 11-2 (9), while Ibragimov dips to 2-1 (0). Up next for Wladimir could be a mandatory defense later this spring as his brother Vital has his sights set on the winner of the March 8 title bout between Sam Peter and Oleg Maskaev; assuming Vital doesnt become mysteriously injured again.

l'm looking for some free seeds.anybody have any for me..ones that come up yearly...could email me |
Follow-Up Postings:
Tweetybird, for someone who just joined GW yesterday, you've not chosen a good way to introduce yourself to this forum. This is an exchange, which means you are expected to offer something in return for seeds you ask for. I notice that your trade list is empty. You don't indicate what zone you're in, and you give a trash hotmail account as a contact. You almost sound like a scammer. But maybe I'm over-reacting. Despite your lack of etiquette and "gimme gimme" attitude, you may still find someone willing to give you seeds on a SASBE basis-- you should read the FAQs on this forum if you don't know what that is. - Bev |
Nicely said, Bev. Newcomer is just a silly tweetybird. |
But remember that Tweety kept outsmarting Sylvester the cat! Not around this forum, I think. ;-) |

I understand all of the points that you all have made, but disagree with the analogies used (car, bank card, religion). They dont seem all that terrible to me.
I have spent 30 years w/o a gun on my hip. And although I have become quite fond of carrying the past few months, I believe that I would probably live anothe 50 or so (God willing) if I couldnt do so.
My pro 2A stance does not define me nor is it the most important thing in my life. If all my rights were taken, it would not effect my relationship with my Savior, Jesus Christ. Nobody can touch that. I guess what Im trying to say is that all the rest fades away compared to what matters most. Come life, death, or even liberalism...I will still have Christ. God bless, HOLYROLLER.

A monstrance, also known as ostensorium, is the vessel used in Roman Catholic, Old Catholic and Anglican churches to display the consecrated Eucharistic host, during Eucharistic adoration or Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Created in the medieval period for the public display of relics, the monstrance today is usually restricted for vessels used for hosts. The word monstrance comes from the Latin word monstrare, meaning "to show".[1] In Latin, the monstrance is known as an ostensorium (from ostendere, "to show").
In the Catholic tradition, at the moment of consecration the elements (called "gifts" for liturgical purposes) are transformed (literally transubstantiated) into the body and blood of Christ. Catholic doctrine holds that the elements are not only spiritually transformed, but are (substantially) transformed into the body and blood of Christ. Although the elements retain the appearance, or "accidents," of bread and wine, they become the body and blood of Christ. The presence of Jesus in the Eucharist is known as the doctrine of the Real Presence within the Roman Catholic tradition. Other Christians (notably Anglicans, Old Catholics, Mar Thoma, and Lutherans) accept the doctrine of the Real Presence, whilst rejecting transubstantiation as a philosophical concept. Owing to these beliefs, the consecrated elements are given the same adoration and devotion that Christians of these traditions accord to Christ himself.
Within churches of these traditions the reserved sacrament serves as a focal point of religious devotion. In many of them, during Eucharistic adoration, the celebrant displays the sacrament in the monstrance, typically on the altar. When not being displayed, the reserved sacrament is locked in a tabernacle (more common in Roman Catholicism) or aumbry (more common in the other traditions mentioned).
In the service of Benediction, the priest blesses the people with the Eucharist displayed in the monstrance. This blessing differs from the priest's blessing, as it is seen to be the blessing by Christ rather than that of the individual priest. The exposition of the monstrance during Benediction is traditionally accompanied by chanting or singing of the hymn Tantum Ergo.
Monstrances are usually elaborate in design; most are carried by the priest. Others may be much larger fixed constructions, typically for displaying the host in a special side chapel, often called the "Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament". For portable designs, the preferred form is a sunburst[2] on a stand, usually topped by a cross.
Medieval monstrances were more varied in form than contemporary ones. Those used for relics, and occasionally for the host, typically had a crystal cylinder in a golden stand, and those usually used for hosts had a crystal window in a flat-faced golden construction, which could stand on its base. The monstrance was most often made of silver-gilt or other precious metal, and highly decorated. In the center of the sunburst, the monstrance normally has a small round glass the size of a Host, through which the Blessed Sacrament can be seen. Behind this glass is a round container made of glass and gilded metal, called a luna, which holds the Host securely in place. When not in the monstrance, the Host in its luna is placed in a special standing container, called a standing pyx, in the Tabernacle. Before the current design, earlier "little shrines" or reliquaries of various shapes and sizes were used.
When the monstrance contains the Host, the priest will not touch the vessel with his bare hands. Out of respect, he holds it with a humeral veil, a wide band of cloth that covers his shoulders (humera) and has pleats on the inside, in which he places his hands.
In recent years, the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church has embarked on a campaign of de-Latinization reforms. These include the removal of the stations of the cross, the rosary and the monstrance from their liturgy and parishes. In response a group called the Society of Saint Josaphat (abbreviated as SSJK) has formed, with a seminary in Lviv. It currently has thirty students enrolled and is affiliated with the Society of St. Pius X.
Critics claim that the SSJK's liturgical practice favours severely abbreviated services and imported Latin Rite devotions over the traditional and authentic practices of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Proponents counter that these symbols and rituals, influenced long ago by their Polish Catholic neighbors, have been practiced by Ukrainian Greek Catholics for centuries and that to deny them today is to deprive the people of a part of sacred heritage which they have learned to regard as their own.

SoundRadar gives you a chance to take a look (and a listen) at one of the most overlooked aspects of gaming, the music. In our most recent interview, we met with composer Chad Seiter and talked to him about his work on this year's Star Trek game and the many other roles he's taken in the gaming industry. For example, along with being the head of the musical compositions for Star Trek, he has also done some work on the Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concert tour. Get all the details and the full interview in the video below.
