Arctic S113BT is a portable wireless speaker system featuring a rare combination of one-touch pairing through Near Field Communication (NFC) and extended transmitting range through Bluetooth 4.0. Arctic S113BT plays CD quality stereo audio streamed wirelessly from all major NFC and Bluetooth-enabled smart phones, tablets, MP3, e-readers and computers running Mac OS/iOS, Android, and Windows operating systems.
NFC cuts the pairing process to just a fraction of a second and is as easy as placing your NFC-enabled mobile device on top of the Arctic S113BT for the initial pairing. The integrated advanced Near Field Communication components in both devices will get to work and pair with each other in less than a second. No more holding down the button and waiting for discovery mode to kick in. Powerful Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity streaming true CD quality stereo sound is far superior than those tiny speakers in your mobile device. What's more, Arctic S113BT works up to 30 feet away!
AAC & AptX Audio SupportArctic S113BT supports the same high quality Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) - the digital audio format that is now a standard on YouTube, iPhone, iPod, iPad, Nintendo & PlayStation 3 and delivers better sound quality than MP3 at similar bit rates. Arctic S113BT is also compatible with aptX digital audio codec compression technology that brings you high quality audio virtually identical as wired speakers with an impressive dynamic range and crisp clarity. Not all the Bluetooth speakers support AAC & aptX.
Bluetooth Wireless Stereo Audio StreamingArctic S113BT supports Bluetooth Advanced Audio Distribution Profile for true wireless stereo audio streaming as well as Audio Video Remote Control Profile for control such as track skipping.
Crisp & Powerful Sound with Generous Playback TimeArctic S113BT is powered by a solid-state amplifier with dual full-range drivers & two passive bass radiators delivering excellent sound and volume performances indoors and out. Built-in rechargeable battery provides up to eight long hours of playback in a single charge.
Easy ConnectivityOther than supporting the advanced NFC and Bluetooth 4.0 technologies, Arctic S113BT also comes with the standard 3.5mm TRRS audio cable so devices without NFC and/or Bluetooth capability can also take advantage of the portable high quality sound delivered by Arctic S113BT.
Outdoor Durability & PortabilityArctic S113BT has a rubberized protective casing that is both moist and dust-resistant. It is built to withstand outdoor use poolside or at the beach. The soft padded nylon carrying pouch keeps Arctic S113BT safe and dry so you can enjoy it just about everywhere you take it. With a petite footprint of only 7" x 3" x 2" and weighing only 14 oz, Arctic S113BT takes up little space and is easy to carry around.
Hands-Free Speaker BoxThe integrated omni-directional microphone turns Arctic S113BT into your portable speaker box in the car or in conference room when using with your smart phone for hands-free phone calls. The sound quality is far superior to the smart phone speakers so you can put your attention on more important things like driving, making a presentation, or just enjoying a conversation.
Wide-Range OS & Device CompatibilityArctic S113BT supports NFC and/or Bluetooth-enabled mobile devices such as smart phones, tablets, e-readers, MP3 and even computers running various operating systems, such as Mac/iOS, Android and Windows.
Multiple Color Selections & Long WarrantyArctic 113BT has six different vivid colors to choose from (Black, White, Blue, Pink, Orange and Lime) for different lifestyles. Arctic S113BT comes with a generous 2-year limited warranty. Please contact email@example.com for services.

Great speaker, not so great at making phone callsPros: Sounds good especially for its size and price. Very clear unless you max out the volume on the phone and the speaker. Feels very well built and is very easy to pair to the phone (I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 which has NFC). Cons: Using it as a speaker phone is a joke... the person you are talking to sounds great, but they will have a very hard time understanding you. Other Thoughts: I am happy with my purchase because I wanted to have a good sounding bluetooth speaker for listening to music and podcasts. This device does a great job at that. I was disappointed with the quality of the built in microphone as it is all but unusable. If you are just looking for a music player, this is a great buy. If you want to use it for making phone calls, look elsewhere or hope that I just had a bad unit. Did you find this review helpful? |
Cables not includedPros: Works as expected and good sound quality for the $35 sale price I got it at. BT pairing work seamlessly and easily with my S4. Cons: 3.5 mm audio and USB cable not included as indicated in description and on box. Luckily not a show stopper since they are standard cable sizes and I can charge it with a USB cable I already have, but shows a lack of quality control. Did you find this review helpful? |
Nice sound. Great price.Pros: Connected to bluetooth on the first try. Very easy to connect. Nice sound for such a compact form. I like the rubber casing for extra protection. While I didn't test the battery life, if it even comes close to the advertised 8 hours, I'll be impressed. Great deal at $35! Cons: None Other Thoughts: Got this for my niece for Xmas. She loved it. Did you find this review helpful? |
Very Good For PricePros: Small, decent volume, sounds good. Cons: Lows are not very low, highs aren't very high. Other Thoughts: This is a really good sounding device for the price. I would love to do a side-by-side comparison with the Jambox, just to see how it stacks up. Did you find this review helpful? |
Overall GoodPros: 1) Able to connect to Bluetooth quickly with iPhone 5S, Samsung Galaxy S4 and laptops Cons: Bluetooth detection range Other Thoughts: I am not a music lover but thought will give a try when I found this in a deal. I am pretty much satisfied with the purchase but the reason I gave 4 stars is because, Did you find this review helpful? |
Fair with one design flawPros: Very long battery life due to Bluetooth 4. It pairs quickly using the button, and although NFC usually works, it's slower. To my surprise, using the USB to charge it on my computer caused Windows to install it as an external speaker on the USB wire. Able to fill my 30x60x13 workroom with enough sound to help me work. Cons: BIG PROBLEM FOR ME is the speaker cannot detect that it's in use when the 3.5mm jack is used as the sound source, so every 10min it tries to turn off. This is the method we intended to use with these (bought two). Sound lacks higher freq., compared to my HDMX Jam which has better quality, generally similar volume. There is no indicator of charge level, and since this speaker can go many hours on a charge I lose track how much use it should have left and run out at times. Other Thoughts: I've not tried the built-in microphone capability. I always have the speaker at max volume and moderate it using my player. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
NOT Stereo, sadly, but goodPros: This small 2-driver speaker box has a lot going for it: long playing time due to a larger than most rechargeable battery; very good sound considering its small size; it has a mic so that it can be used as a speakerphone; comes with a nice zippered bag for storage, which also holds the accessory cables that it comes with. And of course it's bluetooth, and that worked very well! Cons: Not Stereo; it does receive stereo via bluetooth, but the built-in amp is mono. There are two drivers, one at each end of the speaker box, but the signal coming out of each one is the same. Thus there is no separation. It's nice sounding mono, but mono it remains. Other Thoughts: If this speaker were actually stereo as it says it is, it would be great and may even be worth the retail price; but as it is, it's only worth getting if it's heavily discounted (which it was when I bought it.) 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Small but powerfulPros: Great sound in a small package. Also great batter life... have used is for a few hours a couple of times a week and have yet to charge the dang thing!!! Cons: Not really much bad about it... Did you find this review helpful? |
Size Doesn't MatterPros: Powerful little speaker with brilliant highs and powerful bass & NO wires. Cons: None to speak of Did you find this review helpful? |
ARCTIC S113BT Speaker-Wish I'd Bought More At Promo Price For GiftsPros: Sound-General: Use with cellphone mp3 player through this speaker is FAR superior to phone speaker alone, and about the same as 4x larger quality amplified stereo speakers with bass ports Cons: USER CANNOT REPLACE BATTERY: Other Thoughts: Aesthetics: visually pleasing. 6mm thick blue silicone(?) shell wrap-around with front/back semi-glossy black grills exposed. The shell should help protect from major damage if dropped from reasonably low height (nightstand, coffee-table, etc) 6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Papua New Guinea Chases UAE Investment in Gas Project
Text of report by Papua New Guinea Post-Courier website on 9 September
The government is going around the world looking for money to secure its equity in the multi-billion-kina liquefied natural gas (LNG) project. Amid this, the government, led by State Enterprises Minister Arthur Somare, will be briefing the opposition on the LNG gas agreement as well as the project today. The opposition will, after the briefing, decide whether to boycott the 18 September parliament sitting.
Mr Somare and the Independent Public Business Corporation (IPBC) managing director Glenn Blake travelled last week to the capital of United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi, to find money to fund the government's 19.4 per cent equity in the PNG LNG project of about 3bn kina (1bn US dollars).
A senior IPBC executive revealed this to the Post-Courier yesterday, hours before Treasury Secretary Simon Tosali told the newspaper that cabinet had instructed "everyone" to go out and look for international partners who could fund the government's equity in the project.
"Yes, the minister (Mr Somare) did go to Abu Dhabi to find finance for the LNG project but it was just preliminary discussions. He's been trying to keep that at a low key," the executive said. "He just went there to hold preliminary talks with Abu Dhabi banks on the possibility of seeking competitive financing for the Government's share in the LNG.
"They've talked with six banks in Abu Dhabi because you know Middle East countries have heaps of cash. We might be able to get a very good deal there," he said, adding the discussions were just "preliminary with no commitment being made yet".
The near-30bn kina LNG project is projected to double the size of the country's economy for a proposed 30-year life when it gets off the ground in 2013 or early 2014.
The executive was asked if it was true Mr Somare did talk to some sheikhs, but said that was not the case because Mr Somare and Mr Blake only held discussions with the banks which had the money.
Asked why Mr Somare would travel all the way to Abu Dhabi, he said: "They have the money, we are after the loan."
Mr Tosali also said cabinet had instructed "everyone" to go out and seek funding for the government's equity in the project.
While brushing aside queries if he knew about the Somare-Blake trip and claims that Treasury officers were not allowed to accompany the two men, Mr Tosali said the government was actively seeking funding for its component in the project.
"Everyone is out there looking for the Government's funding for the project," he said. He said proposals would be provided to the cabinet of the proposed institutions or individuals interested to fund the government's part in the LNG project.

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
7 Be patient, therefore, beloved, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious crop from the earth, being patient with it until it receives the early and the late rains. | 7 Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains. |
8 You also must be patient. Strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near. | 8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near. |
9 Beloved, do not grumble against one another, so that you may not be judged. See, the Judge is standing at the doors! | 9 Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door! |
10 As an example of suffering and patience, beloved, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. | 10 Brothers, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. |
11 Indeed we call blessed those who showed endurance. You have heard of the endurance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful. | 11 As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy. |

Hope this is the right forum, mods please move if otherwise.
A few months ago, my neighbor gave me an old Winchester Model 94 that was rusted completely shut. Apparently it had caustic cleaning agent poured all over it, and the wood was ruined while all the outside parts were covered in rust. Its since been a while, but I've cleaned it up and am ready to reassemble. But one thing I'm not sure of is if I ruined the heat treat/temper on the rifle. I used a small butane torch to remove the locking bolt and some screws on the receiver. Would heating up the spots I did weaken the rifle in any way? Also, how much surface pitting is acceptable? Thanks in advance.

Though Dwight "Doc" Gooden certainly had a fascinating career on the baseball diamond, a revelation in his 1999 autobiography, "Heat," has been urban legend ever since the book's release. Gooden writes in the book that teammate Kevin Mitchell, in an argument with his girlfriend, ended up decapitating her cat, something Mitchell has since disputed.

1. What's the realistic upside, RMc? posted on August 06, 2014 at 07:03 AM #(For what it's worth, Snopes also has an extract from a book by Jeff Pearlman in which Pearlman describes witnessing a confrontation between Mitchell and Gooden about the book, in which Gooden's response was to deny responsibility for the inclusion of the cat story in his own autobiography).
Kevin Mitchell, please die in a fire.
Better yet, don't. Linger for a long time instead.
Isn't that a bit extreme?
How does one "end up" decapitating a cat? Were they calmly tossing cleavers at each other when the cat crossed their path and . . .ooops!
OK, you're right. I'll accept instant death instead (assuming, of course, that the account is true; if not, for "Kevin Mitchell" insert "people who have actually committed this revolting crime").
Do you also support the death penalty for crimes against humans?
Do you also support the death penalty for crimes against humans?
If someone out there decapitates or tortures a child, I don't think I'd shed too many tears over his/her execution.
The point about Mitchell's alleged action* though is more about what kind of person would get annoyed by a cat at a party and respond by cutting its head off. And the answer to that is that a person like that is very likely to be a psychopath whose malevolence will not be contained to that situation. The slaughterhouse guy's daily actions don't give us any reason to suspect his mental state.
I'd much rather hire someone to watch my (hypothetical) kids who killed 1000 people in the military, b/c it was his job, than who killed one cat, for shits and grins.
Shooty exits stage left. Y'all have fun!
It sounds like this was no random cat, but a cat specifically selected
And yet aside from punching a few people Mitchell has managed to contain his malevolent psychopathic tendencies and has not killed indiscriminately

Osborne first gained acclaim in 1956 for the play Look Back in Anger. He went on to write many other succesful works, including The Entertainer, Epitaph for George Dillon, Inadmissible Evidence, and Luther, which won the 1964 Tony Award for Best Play. Heilpern's biography is the first one informed by the playwright's secret notebooks, in which he recorded his otherwise hidden anguish and immobilizing depression.
Heilpern, who was born in England, is also the author of Conference of the Birds, which details a journey by director Peter Brook and a group of actors across the African desert. He is currently the drama critic for The New York Observer.

Ok so here is the video of my reaper that i can't seem to balance out. It flys OK but it's takes alot of work. I dont know what to do with it. It's gonna have alot of holes in it.... To me it seems like the battery needs to go back more. Wings are not my thing i guess?
May 02, 2012, 10:39 PM | ||
I have seen many things happen that make a plane fly strangely. Seeing that you are flying a Scythe the Reaper should be easier to fly so something has happened which would make me think there is a set up problem. I have great confidence in the Reaper. If you look at the Swarm competition we just had most of the planes in the video are Reapers. Here is the check list from the website for things to check. http://crashtesthobby.com/articles/10-mistakes-to-avoid Flyers I have helped have the following problems. CG is not right. I frequently see planes that are tail heavy and many flyers mistake a stall for nose heavy. If the plane rolls or tip stalls instead of going flat and level to the ground it may be tail heavy not nose heavy. The Reaper can carry a large battery and camera and balance. This may be the problem. Servos are too weak or reversed. I have seen a dozen planes this year with up and down or elevons reversed. This happens to even experienced flyers. I have seen planes with linkage problems that under any type of stress are flexing or servos moving especially under compression. If the right signal isn't getting to the elevons the plane can't fly. This most frequently happens if the pushrod is from the tip of the servo arm to the horn on the elevon and there isn't enough leverage. I see you have not used the standard elevons and this is OK but they have to have the right amount of movement or it will stall the wing before it even gets up to speed. We use bigger elevons on our planes because they have less drag. Because the elevons are bigger they don't have to move as much to get the same effect on the wing. If they move too much they will stall the wing and make the plane seem out of balance. If they don't move enough you don't have the time to get the plane under control before it is on the ground. I have seen props on backwards and weak batteries that are not giving enough power. I have seen many flyers who are having trouble launching the bigger plane. I hope this helps. I know the plane design is a great design. Lee |

A Scorecard for Immigrant Leadership in America
In the first report of its kind, The New American Leaders Project released "Represent 2020: A Scorecard for Immigrant Leadership in America". Researchers surveyed 7,382 state legislators to determine the number of Asian American and Latino elected officials currently serving in office in state government nationwide.
Their findings? Only 377 Asian American and Latinos hold elected seats in state legislatures.
Across the board, not one state legislature accurately reflects the number of Asian American and Latinos residing in their states.

Investing in New American Leaders
New Leaders Embrace Civic Duty
NALP's Power & Policy Conference at the White House was a success! Bringing together 50 elected officials with diverse immigrant backgrounds, conference participants discussed next steps and innovations in immigration policy and advancing immigrant leaders throughout American government.
The conference concluded in the Power & Policy Awards at Washington D.C.'s renowned Newseum. Below, NALP President and Founder Sayu Bhojwani with the evening's honorees, Congressman Mark Takano, New York State Supreme Court Judge Doris Ling-Cohan and Colorado State Senator Jessie Ulibarri.
New American Leaders Project was recently selected to participate in Re3 StoryHack. We helped two teams of hackers write, visualize, code, and share our story. Their websites offer background on the current state of representation, and aim to shift national perspective on the need for descriptive democracy in the United States.
■ Most Likely to Shift Perspective Award
■ Audience Choice Award
A more representative government starts closer to home than you may think. If the interests of elected officials don't seem to reflect our own interests, how better to change that than to run for local office yourself? This humorous video drives home this point, and a toolkit helps anyone get started on a public campaign.
Our multi-ethnic country of immigrants is not accurately reflected in our elected officials. This interactive image collage illustrates the changing ethnicity and the increasing "majority of minorities" in the U.S. and compares it to the homogeneity of the Senate. Scroll through the diversity visualization to see the change we need to make so our government truly reflects us.

Revit 2013 BSP - Structural Flavor
Revit Arch 2013
Working in the same project file. Revit BSP doesn't get the error. However, RAC users gets the follow error:
File <xxx> was modified by the third-party updater AREXRevitStart:ExtensionsReinfWall which is not installed.
If you continue to edit the file, data maintained by AREXRevitStart:REXExtension: DReinfWall will not be updated properly. This may create problems when <xxx> is later opened when AREXRevitStart:REXExtension: DReinfWall is present.
1) What is this extension? in question
2) How do I turn off this error OR how do I install the needed 3rd party extension
Have you had any luck on this?
We have been getting this error as well and the most recent testing lead us to believe that the cause of this is due to the Building Design Suite Premium Extensions 2013.
Seems like BDSP Extensions 2013 is not compatible with Revit Arch 2013 and causes the error message(s). Uninstalling it doesn't help either. However, those who have BDSP Ext 2013 do not receive the errors, only RArch users do. Pretty much tried everything. My option now is to start all over unless Adsk releases a hotfix of sorts.....
It's left me scratching my head......
Received this from Autodesk today:
The cause of this, there was a user that accessed and modified the file using a 3rd party updater (in this case "DreinfWall"), which the client does not have (thus triggering the message and most likely the crash). As these elements were modified using this updater, they are essentially owned by the updater and any modifications made outside of the updater, could cause issues when the file is opened or modified with the updater, as the user is reporting
For 2012 and later, the "do not warn" option was included so that you can disassociate the file with the 3rd party updater. I would check that option and continue working. When they get new files to link in, I would open it, disassociate it, save it, and then link the file.
To make sure the updater does not keep doing this, please review the following blog post which has steps for changing the code of the updater:
So the 'Third Party updater" that Autodesk mentions is actually their own product. It is the Reinforcement tool in the Autodesk Revit Extensions. Also it is not limited to affecting users of RAC2013. RVT2013 users running just the Arch profile are running into this as well.
Can anyone from Autodesk chime in on updating the code in REX to match their own best practice that was linked to earlier here? http://adndevblog.typepad.com/aec/2012/05/avoid-th
Can this truly just be 'ignored' by the end user and it will not affect them again? I'm getting mixed reports here on if this actually has an effect on the stability of the product.
Just started getting this same error in Arch with linked models from MEP and Structural. Can this message be ignored by the Architects as they won't be modifying the struct model?
We are now seeing this in 2014. Our office has both BDSP and RAC and the RAC users get this error dialog.
I imagine we will be uninstalling the Autodesk Revit Extensions until this is sorted out.
Hi everyone,
This message simply means that an add-in (in this case one of the Revit extensions) is not present on the computer on which the file is being opened. There is no bug and no corruption of the file - the message is there to inform you that an add-in made automatic changes to your file previously and that data maintained by the add-in may become out of date if you change the file without the add-in installed.
For example, the reinforcement add-in automatically updates the rebar inside of a column when the column size changes. If you change the size of a column without the add-in installed, then the rebar will not be updated and will end up in the "wrong" size/location. The add-in won't know to automatically update the rebar in this column even if the add-in is used on it later unless the column is modified again.
It you are NOT planning to modify the file, it is completely safe to ignore the warning and open the file.
If you are planning to make changes, you have two options:
1. Install the add-in so that it can continue to update necessary elements.
2. If you are sure that your changes won't affect the add-in or you know that the elements maintained by the add-in will be updated/recreated later anyway, you can continue to work with the file.
Bottom line, the file is completely safe to use, modify etc, just be careful to make sure that elements are properly updated (possibly manually) if/when the file is returned back to an environment where the add-in is present.
Sasha Varsanofieva
Revit Platform Technologies Product Manager
The problem is that the extension seems to be structural in nature and only installed on BDSP systems (and presumably Revit Structure), not Revit Architecture, so there is no way for us to install the necessary extension for our RAC users.
We have three users on BDSP and three on RAC (2014). All are running the latest update and have the Revit Extensions installed (from the subscription site). We have one model that somehow was "touched" with the DReinfWall extension and now generates the error dialog on open for all of the RAC users.
Is there any way to determine which model Elements are generating this error? And if so can we remove the REX data?
I'm sure the use of DReinfWall was accidental. Other than completely un-installing all of the Revit Extensions for everyone, is there a way to prevent this from happening again?
Thank you,
I am also keen to see if there is a way to disable this across the board, or eliminate the offending element.
We have uninstalled this add-in long time ago, it has not been used on ANY current projects and all of a sudden ALL projects get this error message when open from my machine. Nobody else gets this error message. Also, "do not notify me again..." option does not work. It notifies every time. Clearly, this is a bug. Please advise! Thank you.

Seed potatoes cannot be allowed to freeze, therefore, special shipping is required during the Fall/Winter months. Seed potatoes will ship via FedEx Ground To Zones 2-4 only and ships via FedEx 3 Day to Zones 5-8. Shipments to zones 5-8 will only ship on Monday's and Tuesday's (to ensure the potatoes do not sit in a FedEx terminal over the weekend). Orders can't be cancelled once they've shipped.
Potato orders placed up to October 31 will ship as soon as potatoes arrive (ETA 11/14). However, moving forward, from Nov 1st until Mid/Late Spring, we will ONLY ship potatoes to CA, OR, WA, NV and AZ.
If you live outside of these 5 Western states, we cannot ship potatoes to you as they will otherwise invariably freeze during transit. While your specific state might be having decent weather, your order will travel through very cold regions from our CA location to yours. While you certainly can place your order, we will only ship it when the threat of freeze across the nation is over, which typically is in April or May.
Robert Lobitz released his All Red variety through Seed Savers Exchange in 1984. It was bred from a potato named Bison and can grow well in drought conditions. Many use this in their potato salads. Also known as "Cranberry Red".

Flow NX2-AT Snowboard Binding
A huge improvement over my 2011 Flows! Much easier to dial in the right tightness and step in and out of. Love being able to ride off the lift and onto the slope without stopping at all.
I wouldn't recommend these for beginners, since stepping in while moving is what's really great about them.
A bit on the heavy side, looking forward to weight improvements in the 2013/2014 model.

CAMRA National Pub of the Year 2010/2011
In February 2011 it was announced that the Harp had been voted National Pub of the Year 2010/2011 by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA). Following on from the CAMRA West London and CAMRA Greater London awards that the pub received in 2010 this national award recognises the pub's dedication and commitment to real ale.
Bridget Walsh who runs the Harp had this to say...
I'm really proud to announce that the Harp has won CAMRA National Pub of the Year 2010/2011. This is a real honour on top of the two CAMRA awards we received last year and I believe that this is the first London pub to win this national award.
I really want to thank the various CAMRA groups for their support over the last 40 years - starting in the '70s with the Croydon & Sutton group when I was at the Albert in South Norwood. Then it was the South West London group when I ran the Rose & Crown in Clapham and now the West London group who have stood by me in the 17 years I have been at the Harp in Covent Garden. I am extremely grateful to all of you.
This pub would be nothing without my excellent staff - some of whom have been here for many years. They work extremely hard especially at busy times to ensure that everyone gets served as soon as possible, and that there is some great beer to drink.
I also want to thank both my regular and occasional customers for choosing to visit the Harp from a vast selection of pubs in London. I look forward to seeing you again soon.
Over the years I've lost count of the number of breweries whose beer we've stocked - breweries who produce consistently good real ales that have proved to be extremely popular in the Harp. Your good beer has helped the Harp win this award.
Best wishes and thanks to all of you.
Photos from the Day
Many pictures were taken on the day and you can see a selection on our Photos Page and on our Pub of the Year Facebook album.
Media Coverage
The National Pub of the Year award attracted some good coverage in the newspapers. The Guardian and 'i' (from the Independent) both carried quarter page features.
Online media and other sites also mentioned the award and here's a list of the ones we know about so far:
- BBC News
- The Guardian
- The Independent
- Morning Advertiser
- CAMRA Main Site
- South West London CAMRA
- West London CAMRA
- The Times
- The Publican
- Caterer Search
- Asylum UK

Queer Italia: Same-sex Desire in Italian Literature and Film - Italian and Italian American Studies (Hardback)
Format: | Hardback 256 pages |
Not in stock
Usually despatched in 3-5 days
Delivered FREE
in the UK
This volume gathers essays on Italian literature and film, medieval to modern. The volume's chronological organization reflects its intention to define a queer tradition in Italian culture. While fully cognizant of the theoretical risks inherent in transhistoricizing sexuality, the contributors to this volume share an interest in probing the multiform dynamics of sexual desires in Italian texts through the centuries. The volume aims not to promote the mistaken notion of a single homosexuality through history; rather, these essays together upset and undo the equally misguided assumption of an omnipresent heterosexuality through time by uncovering the various, complex workings of desire in texts from all periods. Somewhat paradoxically, a kind of queer canon results. These essays open a critical space in the Italian tradition wherein fixed definitions of sexual identity collapse. This title should be of interest to Italianists, medieval to modern, and queer cultural theorists.

I am new at mosaics, but I want to attempt to make a small backsplash (15"x40"). I do not want to place it directly on the wall, as I am not so sure I can accomplish this or would want it there for a very long time.
What kind of backing should I use and how would I hang it?? |

Hi There! I would suggest wedi board or some kind of cement backerboard, you can do your mosaic on it, then screw it to the wall. Just go to a flooring/tile store and ask about this, I find them, most helpful, as they are realizing there is more and more home owners that are wanting to do these projects themselves. |
great Kitchen, love the wall colors. I agree with Jane, cut cemnt board to fit and find your studs for the screw holes. Then you can build it laying flat. Just remember if you have any switches or outlets in the space you need to extend them out |
- Posted by smickerdoodle (My Page) on Mon, Jan 25, 10 at 19:04
I agree with the others. If you wanted to you could frame it out with some trimming from the lumber yard too...just to give it a finished look. |
Be sure to post photos when you are done or even keep us up to date with work in progress... those are fun...and your house looks brand new...lovely |
Or you could use plexiglass like I did on my stair risers. I drilled a hole near each end, mosaiced and grouted before installation, and then just screwed each one into place. Here's another thought. For your edges you could use the edge pieces of ceramic tile, some are called bullnose tile I believe, so that you have a finished look to the edges. Keep us posted, please! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Silva's archived blog posts on stair risers

Yeah I played a game as Jungle GP and I was doing pretty okay since I don't jungle often. In the early game I noticed whenever I saw Voli and tried to 1v1 him. I won the first two fights but then a bit later I tried to fight him and he decked me. He had 0 damage items. All HP and armor. But he did huge chunks out of me. I won that game but it still surprises me how much damage he does with out any damage items. TL;DR : Voli does damage with no damage items how do I counter this. Thanks for reading.
GP should be fairly capable of kiting him with your slow. Just don't let him bite you and you should be fine. Don't fight him. He reminds me of Nasus in this regard. He builds pure resitances and carries off of it.
Volibear's W scales to health. It's also an execute, so it scales to his target's missing health. Also, his W's passive gives him attack speed. And that actually makes his R somewhat useful. If you see a Volibear build an Atma's Impaler, now you know you're really in trouble. But with health and armor, it's extraordinarily difficult to do much damage too him. One thing you can do (for now, until it gets removed) is get someone on your team to build a Madred's Bloodrazor. Also, Deathfire Grasp is useful if used at the beginning of the fight. There may be other items too, but basically you're looking for items and abilities that do percentage health based damage. EDIT: Also, Volibear's passive. When he gets below 30% health, it heals him for 30% of his health. So a Volibear with 6,000 health essentially has more like 7,800 health that you have to chew through. And that's even more effective health when you count in armor. So another strong play against Volibear is Ignite (or any item or ability that causes reduced healing effects). Putting ignite on Volibear before his passive kicks in cuts his passives heal in half.
Thank you for the info. I never knew his w scaled with health. Might encourage me to get a more Survivability type build for gp.

uh oh, I see a problem right there. Generally speaking, a prop size of 1/3 the wingspan is on the ragged edge of the maximum recommended prop size. On jets like this, you will definately see a reduction of torque roll by dropping that prop down a few inches in diameter. As long as your speed controller and motor is rated for the voltage, you drop a couple inches on prop diameter and add an extra cell in the lipo to spin the motor faster.
I generally prefer prop jets to have a prop size that is more like 18-20% of the wingspan and spin it really fast. Tricky thing is that each jet design responds a little different so you end up having to play with the prop size a little bit. I tended to keep a whole selection of test props and ultimately ordered a few of whatever prop gets selected for a particular build. |

Ok, The manual call for a 7x5 which is with the motor they suggest. I went to a 6x4 which is what the local hobby shop suggests. And Yardbird suggests a motor that's 26 watts less. So you think maybe I should go smaller. Any suggestions on size to try? I've got more info from you than I've had in a week & I really thank you for it!!! I'm just surprised It would even fly with a smaller prop!!

here's the skinny on props. The diameter contributed the most to the amount of thrust. The pitch of the blades gives airspeed. It doesn't matter what size prop, the faster you spin it.... the greater the thrust and speed. what modelers try to do is pick a motor and prop that gives good enough performance with the lowest amps draw. the smaller the prop, the faster you have to spin it in order to keep up with a larger prop. prop jets need higher pitch speeds in order to get the jet like speeds. that generally means steep pitch (like a 7x6 vs. 7x3 ) or you have to spin the prop faster. (step down to a 5x5 and spin it 25% faster.) it would be hard to narrow down the prop without knowing what motor you have. |

Fixed my torque problems by installing stronger servos on the tailerons..also be sure your linkages are not flexing as this will not allow you to correct no matter the equipment..try JR mn48's..that should give you the power to counter any roll..
I have been through this with upgrading power systems.. I really think will fix your problems... Take care......chris |

That's a consideration I've not given! The servos are JR but I am going to look those over. One thing I did notice is the Yardbird SU-40 is nowhere near as reinforced as the Yardbird F-15. I can actually watch the foam flex at the wooden motor mount area. I don't see that in the F-15. So while I did seem to almost eliminate the problem with a 5x5 prop I keep getting told that the motor/plane combo (2200kv) should support the 6x4. I know someone with the F-15 & it seems to be much more rigid. Joe 1320 suggested the smaller prop and it did work & work well based on his experiences. But if I can modify the plane to make it more rigid I'll attempt that also. Thanks Chris!!

The place: Warsaw, Poland
It's a poor man's: Prague
The financial analysis: Poland is not on the euro yet, so prices are very reasonable. The fact that it has (so far) escaped the attention of most tourists also helps to keep prices down. Plus, the Poles love Americans, so chances are you'll be bought a drink or two.
Price of a beer: $3 at most bars
What to do: Pack your hollow leg and make a night of it—you're in the land of heavy drinking and all-night clubs. Warsaw nightlife is dark and gothic, in a good way. Start out at local favorite Sklad Butelek or Tomba Tomba, a self-proclaimed "heterofriendly gay club." If you're still standing in the wee hours, head to the dance hall Luztro before you go back to your hotel and sleep it off.
Hotel: One of the only boutique hotels in the city, Hotel Rialto has 44 rooms done up with vintage furniture and a Roaring Twenties vibe. Even the price is a throwback: $175 a night. The staff is young, friendly, and likely to point you in the right nightlife direction.
Cheap eats: Any restaurant located in a university is a safe bet, economically speaking. Biblioteka, named for its location in the University of Warsaw library, is part traditional (the game-heavy menu), part modern (the ambience), and part Italian (the wine list has over 200 labels). Highlights include lamb with spinach and duckling served with caramelized fruit. Expect dinner for two with wine to come in around $80.
How to get there: Check out LOT or Czech Airlines, whose fares to Warsaw tend to be lower than those of American carriers.

Board Game Cafe
Ok, so it seems like we've been to a bunch of different bizarre cafes. We've been to cat cafes, dog cafes, dress-up cafes, video game cafes. Now, we're at another odd on: Board Game Cafes. It's not super girly like the last WANK! It's not super-manly, either, but it's something that won't be as alienating as before. Yay!
Anyhow, you can pretty much guess what this is about: we go to a room, pick from a wide selection of board games, and play the board games. We get charged by the person by the hour. So, if you're playing with 4 people, each person has to pay per hour. You also have to each get a drink. But then, THEN, you can play lots of board games. YAY! They've got lots of different games, like Life, Monopoly, Concentration, Guess Who, and other such canonical childhood games, along with a bunch of games I've never seen before in my life, and they've also got TONS of Catan. TONS OF IT! So many different kinds of Catan as well. You might be asking "WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?! Y U NO PLAY CATAN?" Well, because that'd make for a boring video. Catan's fun to play, but if we made a video of it, the video would be over an hour long. And Martina would get stuck with all the sheep. She luuuuuuvs her some sheep.
We played three different games just to show you some of the different options. That last game, the balloon popping game, is a gortdamn terrible game. It was so unenjoyable! I know some people might find it fun to be so antsy and scared, but that's not something I find fun! I didn't even want to play it. I just touched the game, and then the cafe staffer came over to us and was like "do you want to know how to play?" and we're like "no, it's ok" and then she's like "here's how you play now PLAY!" It's like she knew how terrible the game was and wanted to see us suffer.
Also, let me end off by saying this: I've never written a blog post like this before. We're all here at the Eatyourkimchi Studio now, and we've got a bunch of volunteers helping us out with prepping all of the fundraiser packages (yes, they're almost all ready to ship out!), and this is the most amount of people we've ever had here. I've scuttled off to The Cave to publish this week's WANK while they're all out there stickering and labeling. Not that I didn't put in my fair share of effort. I gluesticked the bajesus out of all the CD packages! But we can't NOT publish the WANK today…so here I am!
Actually, let me end off by saying this: we got blooper footage. Yay! If you're into that kind of thing, you can see a bunch of scenes that didn't make it past the final cut, but we save them here for bloopers anyways. More silliness, if that's your thing.
Filed Under:
The only game I am good is probably monopoly (landing in jail is easy for me XD)
Does anyone know the actual name of the ballon game they played? Or is it just called the ballon game, lol? It seems like a good game to play at parties, mine especially!
katamari theme song! naa nananananananana nananananana na na nanananananananana nanananananaaaaa
Might I suggest that you go to the Seoul Museum of Chicken Art? Or perhaps the Seoul Animation Center?
This is my favorite WANK so far. I've been so stressed out and this just brightened my day! Thanks for being hilarious, and that balloon game would scare anyone…
Do you know of Fluxx, Aquarius, Chrononauts?
OMG! you were playing UBONGO!!!
…. I have this board game at home and I play it pretty often with my seven-year-old brother. He's faster than you three together :D (I know you were playing it first time :) ) :D
….well you need a little more practice in puzzle folding! :D -
There's a place like this in Toronto too! It called Snakes and Lattes and its soo close to Koreatown! It's really an awesome to just chill! Sorry just wanted to let you know =)
Why did you never move your tokens??? :(
The name of the balloon pop game is Buster Balloon.
I can hear VIXX on and on in the background at the end!!!!
We always play the baloon game in the netherlands!!<3 (altough i'm kinda scared for baloons…)
I don't know how many times I've asked you guys this…but if you want me to stop asking, just let me know, I will understand.
I go to a meetup once a month in Gangnam at a board game cafe near the station, and I was really hoping you guys could come out sometime. If you come to the monthly meetup, there's a discount, 5,000won all day, all you can play, plus 1,000won off of all drinks. We would love to see you there if you could find time to stop by. Here's the meetup page:http://www.meetup.com/seoul-gamers/
my buddy just signed up for that and asked me to come. I think i'll be checking out the next one
Awesome! I'd love to see you there! Some of the regulars have recently moved on to other places, so it's nice to have new people.
eh..why do my post keep disappearing..am i to old to be a nasty..is nasty and old so wrong ..tell me whyyyy
There's a similar board game cafe in Toronto called Snakes & Lattes (just east of Korea Town)
It's $5 per person and it's all the games you want, for as long as you want, and you don't have to order drinks/food, but is available. :D
Hope you guise check this place out when you come back to Toronto! :D
How is that game anything like Scattergories?! lol
Scattergories is my game! (Except when you play w/ cheaters, then it SUCKS!)
I have a friend that always get the sheep in Catan too. We call him the sheep-king.
i want to play that balloon game :(
hahaha i love how Martina can just threaten with the Princess Cafe now xD And..'normalcy' guise? xDxDxD What happened to your english O.O
If you watch the bloopers, Ryan kinda raised his fist which looked as if he was about to punch. 2:43 mark.
All the Nasties skipped a heart beat there. Lol. -
Question Question. Is the scrabble in korean too?
This is soooooooooo greatttt!! I wish we had such cafes in Pakistan. O I so wish.. Best Best Best WANK EVAAAAARRR
I agree with most people below. One of the best WANK's. Ryan is a hoot!!
I choked on my gum laughing so hard when you said 'guest wanker'. -
On this week's showdown we ask you, Simon, which was the more tortuous WANK? The Girly McGirlyson princess cafe or the balloon game from hell? Leave your big sissy votes in the big sissy comments and we'll announce which WANK made Simon a bigger sissy next week!
Just teasing Simon, I think you're awesome!<3
I laughed.. oh dear gods did I laugh. (Many hugs and much sympathy about the balloon!)
I had tears, I was laughing so much.Best WANK ever?
I think so. -
The little part with the song lyrics look-up was the BEST!!! Loved who you put as one of the usernames! Also, Ryan should be in more videos!
This is like snakes and lattes in toronto.
JEM!!!!! Truly truly truly outrageous!
the word 'guest wanker' just made my day. hahaha :D
ahaha omg Jem and the Holograms… You made my life Martina <3
I know this has nothing to do with this video, but I was just thinking…how do Koreans get qualified to enter a certain grade? I've heard of tests for entering schools and such, but is there an age limit per grade or something? Or people born at a certain time of year can enter the grade level?
i think that was actually the most enjoyable WANK i've seen yet! i laughed and cringed with you guys….. on another note RYAN is there! he was such a great addition to this week's WANK…. those victory dances=precious^^
who's idea was it to fabricate that lyrics page? GENIUS! XD

Stolen Prey
By John Sandford
(Putnam Adult, Hardcover, 9780399157684, 416pp.)
Publication Date: May 15, 2012

Shop Local
Enter your zip code below to find indies closest to you.
Lucas Davenport has seen many terrible murder scenes. This is one of the worst. In the small Minnesota town of Wayzata, an entire family has been killed—husband, wife, two daughters, dogs.
There's something about the scene that pokes at Lucas's cop instincts—it looks an awful lot like the kind of scorched-earth retribution he's seen in drug killings sometimes. But this is a seriously upscale town, and the husband was an executive vice president at a big bank. It just doesn't seem to fit.
Until it does. And where it leads Lucas will take him into the darkest nightmare of his life.
John Sandford is a Pulitzer Prize winner and the author of twenty-two Prey novels and eleven other works of fiction, most recently the Virgil Flowers novel Shock Wave. He lives in Minnesota.
"If you haven't read Sandford, you have been missing one of the great summer-read novelists of all time. Lucas Davenport, the policeman hero of the Prey novels, is a hard dude . . . but not without a sense of humor, and that makes him special. Sandford writes real-guy novels, but—judging by my wife and her sisters—real girls like him too."—Stephen King
"Sandford's ability to sustain this perfect series [. . .] must be a cause of envy to other writers, but grateful readers greet the annual appearance of Minnesota cop Lucas Davenport with joy, then plan for a sleepless, page-turning night."—Cleveland Plain-Dealer
"Sandford's talent is such that this series never grows stale, or boring, or forgettable. As author and hero age, readers can hope that the best is yet to be."—Richmond Times-Dispatch

Ask a Lore Nerd: Portals, pandaren, and Jaina Proudmoore {WoW}
Sep 22nd 2008 1:38AM Correction. There is lore on Pandarens. From the sources I have read, Pandaria is supposedly off the coast west of Feralas and they used to reside in Ashenvale and such, but chose to move south because of the reckless Night Elves at the time of the War of the Ancients. They also had many conflicts with the Tauren on their way down south to Feralas. Aside from their history, there is much lore on their culture, warrior types, heroes(not just Chen either) architecture and such. Anyone seen the Burning Crusade secret alpha pictures of the Pandaren Warrior? :)

Sedum 'Vera Jameson'
Cacti and succulents, Ground covers, Perennials
SEDUMMostly groundcover-scale succulents that grow nicely in the spaces between rocks (thus "stonecrop"), sedums are native to many parts of the world. Some are quite hardy to cold, others fairly tender; some are tiny and trailing, others much larger and upright. Fleshy leaves are evergreen unless otherwise noted, but highly variable in size, shape, and color. Typically small, star-shaped flowers, sometimes brightly colored, are borne in fairly large clusters.
Smaller sedums are useful in rock gardens, as ground- or bank covers, and in small areas where an unusual texture is needed. Some are prized by collectors of succulents, who grow them in pots, dish gardens, or miniature gardens. Larger types are good in borders or pots. Most sedums are easy to propagate by stem cuttings; even detached leaves will root and form new plants. Soft and easily crushed, they will not take foot traffic, but they are otherwise tough, low-maintenance plants.

About the Andy's Dinosaur Adventures Game
Little ones can travel back in time and join Andy on a dinosaur adventure. They can explore the fantastic land of the dinosaurs on the CBeebies Playtime App and continue the adventure on desktop, mobile and tablet with the CBeebies website.
In the CBeebies Playtime App, little ones can take care of their very own dinosaurs. Each dinosaur is represented by a special badge on their virtual back-pack.
Starting with their first badge the 'Tyrannosaurus Rex', little ones can have fun finding out what food it likes to eat and helping Andy feed it, teaching it to ROAR, personalising it by changing its colour or even take it's photograph to keep and share with their family and friends.
Children can use the buttons along the bottom and on the right to play with their dinosaur. When the buttons change colour to orange or red that means the dinosaur needs something, it might be hungry, bored or needs some exercise.
As children play and take care of their T-Rex they'll earn up to two new badges and new dinosaurs to keep – a 'Stegosaurus' and a 'Triceratops'.
Children can even go exploring and take a ride on one of their dinosaurs; moving the app around to take and collect photographs of other dinosaurs they see along the way. Andy will call out the name of the dinosaur, helping children to learn and recognise different types and species.
In both the app and the website game Andy's iconic 'Gizmo' allows little ones to learn interesting things and fun facts they didn't know about dinosaurs, there are three facts for each dinosaur; how big they were, how much they weighed and a fun fact!
The app is available via Apple iTunes, Google Play, Amazon and Windows Phone 8 app stores, see our CBeebies Playtime App article for the links to download now.
Little ones can also join Andy through a beautifully constructed prehistoric world in a classic point and click adventure game on the Cbeebies website. Layered with realistic animated dinosaurs, fun interactions throughout and mini-games, they can explore the environments at their own pace, uncovering insects and flowers, hatching eggs and piecing together skeletons.
Children can time travel via the Grandfather clock to one of three prehistoric eras, each populated with it's own distinctive flora, fauna and dinosaurs!
Click on Andy's backpack to see the badges they've collected throughout and dive into the 'Gizmo' for even more fun facts about dinosaurs!
Let's go on a dinosaur adventure!

Photographer Thierry Lebraly's collection of sizzling women is a true indication of what the summer has to offer. As many are cooped up at home, trying to stay warm during these cold winter months, Lebraly brought a little heat.
The majority of his models are donning Wayfarer sunglasses, giving the entire shoot a retro vibe.
