Good advice from designers
I think these hints are wonderful. I can't wait to have my ceilings painted cream color. I know I'll like them better.
Here is a link that might be useful: decor advice
Thanks for the article...I agree with a lot, but not all.
Never thought of painting the ceiling cream instead of white...wonder if that would make white trim look off. I have painted ceilings a lighter version of the wall color.
Really, your bedroom has to jive with the rest of the house? Maybe if it is on a main floor off the LR, but upstairs? I don't think so. And where would that leave kids' rooms....the same color scheme as the LR/DR? Naaah!
And painting a room so you "glow" in it based on eye color or even skin color? So your whole life you are supposed to live with the same colors? Have never heard anyone say "you look fabulous in BM Gray Owl!" lol....I like switching things up too much.
A lot of this advice is worth considering, but I agree that "wearing" your rooms is a little silly. I'm a "winter", and my husband is a "spring" (do they do that kind of color analysis anymore?), so does that mean we have irreconcilable decorating differences? He does look great in his office, which is a terrific pear green, me not so much! ;)
I don't think you necessarily need to match your interiors to your wardrobe, but I have been in some rooms that really make people look lousy because of the wall color.
I think #6 is probably the one I see the least followed in GW. And #2 is related. I think there is a lot of going overboard when it comes to obsessive matching of color schemes: pulling out a tiny flower in a rug and needing to match it to something, getting rid of something because it doesn't match the color scheme. Needing *whites* to match exactly (?). I feel like I often see perfectly coordinated rooms that are nice looking but would be a little less flat, and even nicer if the coordination wasn't so obsessive.
"Even when I don't use the same colors everywhere, I still like the rooms to feel connected. The bedroom should never feel like it's in a completely different house from the living room ��" the whole house has to make sense as one." ��"Mona Ross Berma
I'm a big believer in this. The key is the rooms should feel "connected", not matched. It can be tricky.
Soccer, have you not heard of the latest trend, designer children? You just have to know in advance of depositing your eggs and choosing the fertilizer what colors you will want depending on their sexes and IQs. You can always have your husband's contacts tinted to blend with the whole composition you are creating. Nine months give time as well to match the shirts and dresses to the draperies and coverlets. Ouch. What about those color coded toys? Must they be the color of the carrots and plums on your dinner table or the stains deposited by the Gerber strained carrots left on the sofa by the baby who is sickened by it all?
Half my house has white ceilings (bedrooms, bathrooms) and the other half has cream, the same color as the walls. When I had my house painted, there was a lot of conflicting opinions: Paint the ceilings white! Don't paint the ceilings white! I was chicken at first, because cream (SW Antique White) was actually a big step for me from builder's white. I started with the bedrooms and bathrooms and the white ceiling (same color as my trim) looked fine. When I got to the halls and rest of the house, because of an open plan and vaulted ceilings, I was afraid the white ceiling would look weird in a hallway that ended in the middle of my living room wall. So, I went with the cream on the ceiling in the hall and it looked fine. I then had the confidence to continue with that scheme in my living room, dining room and kitchen. I like it better than the white ceiling which, depending on the light, is a separate thing up there. The same color seems to wrap the room better, even look lighter, depending on the time of day. I think a 50% of the wall color could also look good.
Can someone suggest a wall color that will coordinate with my whole family?
Brown/auburn hair, brown eyes, Caucasian.
Mostly gray hair, hazel eyes, Caucasian.
Brown hair, blue eyes, Caucasian.
Blonde hair, brown eyes, Caucasian.
Brown hair, brown eyes, Asian.
Oh, and don't forget the dogs: white/ginger, white/black, brown/white.
Preferably a color that will make the first two family members look 5-10 years younger.
Thanks so much!
Sue20, cute! lol My ceilings are the same color as the walls, a warm tan, and I have to say I like it better than the white i've had in past homes~I find the continuous color more appealing, visually. It's definitely a matter of personal taste. I'm also of the opinion that rooms should feel connected in some way. The wall colors can vary, but all be the same color tone, just a lighter or darker shade. And the same colors in decor should be used thruout for consistently. It doesn't have to be large 'doses', even a flower arrangement can be enough.
I'm big on #5, "interject elements that add intense personality. Make it gutsy, or else it's boring." �"Betsy Brown. I like to refer to it as dramatic. I've used black in every room, be it a background in an area rug, lampshades, pillows, and even in paintings. In one bedroom I've used black chenille drapery panels. Whether it be a print or solid fabric, it doesn't matter.
Thanks yaya, it was an interesting read, and sort of reiterated some of the things I was already aware of. Makes me feel I 'ain't so dumb'! lol
Well, I've decided that I don't care whether husband, kids, dogs, etc. look good in my house. It's all about moi! Moreover, they look good enough and don't know that the blue in the bathroom doesn't work for them.
Seriously, I already think that unconsciously we do pick colors that flatter us.
I always chuckle at these fundamental designer advice things. I remember one of the designer mags running the top 100 designer hints and there were multiple instances of one saying, "No don't ever" and another saying "Always". So much depends on taste, trends, the look one is going for, etc. In fact, IMHO, it's breaking the "rules" that adds the individual personality to a room.
For me, I think I only have one white ceiling in the entire house....all the rest are shades or contrasts with the wall colors.
I have matched colors in the fabrics to the wall colors and it has been successful. I have also done shades of the colors in the fabrics in the wall and it too has been successful. It all depends.
As far as neutral balance, I more often see the opposite...people are afraid of color and opt for neutral and/or beige everything so everything will go, and they don't add the color for all that neutral to go with...instead they end up with boring beige or dull gray.
I don't mind it if private rooms feel different from the public spaces in the house, esp if they are not visible from the main part of the house or are on another floor. But here too, it all depends. If the style of the architecture is very strong, then a room that doesn't work with that can be jarring. But if the architecture is pretty white bread and the rooms are plain boxes, then I say add interest....and if the girl wants to go holly hobby and the boy wants to go NFL, who cares? One house tour of a victorian home comes to mind... where the woman did romantic and tchotchkes and lace and pink roses and shabby chic painted antiques up to the eyeballs. Her husband's "man cave" became an absolute relief to all the overdone everything else.
When it comes to contrast, yes it can work, but so can no contrast, to wit, Phoebe Howard. Contrast can come in shades and patterns and textures too...not every room needs a shot of black or a pop of color.
And I think others have commented enough on matching a room to one's self...actually, as I recall, I painted our old MBR to match our cat Casimir's eyes...they were such a wonderful shade of olive gold....
When I first moved into my old house, I painted the dropped ceiling of fiberboard(?) tiles in the livingroom a cream color. The walls a "paper bag" shade of tan. That was 34yrs. ago! I would love to raise the ceiling back up to 14' but it's just not practical in that room, so eventually I will probably drywall and repaint it the same color. Really needs it now tho - a new coat of paint would make a world of difference in there.

UPDATED: Thursday, July 18, 2013 - 1:27pm
Midway, TX — Midway ISD is making their first big purchase with their bond money that was approved back in May.
The district is spending $375,000 to buy 161 new security cameras. 430 cameras are already in use, spread out at facilities across the district. The first phase of installation will take place at the high school, where cameras that are about 11 years old will be replaced. The older cameras, the district says, are analog, have poor focusing abilities, and poor video quality. With the replacement of those cameras, the district says there will be about a net of 60 new cameras.
Because the district is under budget, they plan to use excess funds to buy some of the additional cameras for needed areas. The additional cameras will also help balance the number of cameras on each of the district's campuses.
"What we're trying to do is provide preventative mechanisms and have those in place. But, if we do need them, then we're going to have the security coverage there where we can provide that information to police officers, SROs, principals, assistant principals as needed," said MISD Executive Director of Technology, Adam Feind.
With the same bond money, MISD also plans to purchase 30 new school buses. Each bus will have a security camera on it as well.
The district anticipates having new camera installations completed before school starts. Their deadline is September 1.

The Creeps! HD
***UPDATED for version 1.9.0!!
I am pleased to announce The Creeps! HD 1.9 for iPad is available now! ALL the original iPhone maps AND "HD only" levels are included! All the iPhone level packs are available for purchase (but if you already own them on iPhone you can unlock them free...look below). ALSO: Did you know that if you own level packs (or used the All Access Pass) on your iPhone version, you can unlock those level packs in the HD version for free? Just do this: 1. Temporarily install the iPhone version on your iPad. 2. Run it and use the "restore" option on the level select screen. This will unlock your level packs for the HD version! 3. Now you can safely delete the iPhone version from your iPad, it won't re-lock those level packs. Maybe one day Apple will allow IAP (like level packs) to be shared between apps so we don't have to jump through hoops like this, but for now this is what we can do. This will not transfer your scores, but hopefully I can fix that in a future update using iCloud! Last edited by RegularStormy; 10-26-2011 at 03:45 AM.. Reason: Creeps!

The world is in turmoil; mass killing, genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation of Muslim lands for natural resources, oppression, expulsions, deprivation and exploitation of innocent, Muslims by power hungry corrupt despotic rulers, greedy powerful countrymen, extremist religious groups and Neo-colonial powers has reached unprecedented level. People are perplexed, they want to get out of this quagmire but there is no way out in sight.
The quest for "Peace and Justice" is exploited by foreign sponsored extremist in the name of religion to recruit Jihadists for power, plunder and exploitation. It adds fuel to fire and provide lame excuse, justification for more oppression and killing of Muslims by the enemies of humanity.
Most of Muslim rulers & leadership have been entangled to tacitly serve agenda of hostile powers, just to protect their rule. The Muslim countries which were relatively strong and wealthy have been systematically dragged in to sectarian, ethnic & tribal civil war and breakup, thus adding fuel to fire.
World peace is not achievable while 1.5 billion Muslims, rich in culture, history and resources are kept in state of turmoil, none will be secure and safe. Hence there is need for the intellectuals, thinkers and all those feeling distressed, to come forward to work out short and long term "Methodology for sustainable Peace" to meet the challenges at present and future. It shall help to make a safe and peaceful world for the humanity.

Gaza, (Alresalah.ps)—Sudan vice president stated Sunday that sudan will not stop supporting Palestinian resistance of Hamas despite Israeli "aggression,". Remarks of sudanise offcial came less than two weeks after Israel bombed a plant in the Sudanese capital.
A blast at Khartoum's Yarmouk factory last month drew new attention to the accusations after Sudan said an Israeli air strike was behind the explosion. Israel has not denied the bombing .
On Sunday, Sudan's Second Vice President al-Haj Adam Youssef said the incident would not stop Sudan supporting Hamas, whose officials have often visited Khartoum in the past, state radio reported in a text message sent to mobile phones.
"We declare our support for Hamas … Israel's aggression has not scared us," the message quoted him as saying.
A visit by two Iranian warships to a Sudanese port last week highlighted military ties between the two countries, and prompted speculation the stay was related to the arms factory blast. Sudan denied this, saying the visit was "routine."
Israel has declined to admit or deny involvement in a string of explosions in Sudan that the government has blamed on Israeli air strikes in recent years.
In May, Khartoum said a blast in Port Sudan that killed one person resembled an explosion in 2011 it accused Israel of carrying out. Israel did not comment on those blasts, or on a similar incident in eastern Sudan in 2009.

Psychology and other behavioral health professions have amassed a broad empirical and clinical literature suggesting many medical presentations are best responded to with the addition of evidence based behavioral interventions. Despite this, psychology has not achieved a regular presence as part of medical practice. We suggest specific reasons for the current state of affairs including clinical, operational, societal labels, financial and training dimensions. Medical, psychological, administrative, and financial perspectives are reviewed. If the goals of health care system reform are to be reached then we must identify and challenge the current limitations of health care. This paper will identify the elements that need to be changed in order for psychology to be integrated into medicine rather than excluded from its policy, planning and operations.

Alright, so I'm considering painting/plasti-dipping my 17" TRD Sport wheels. I like the look of them in flat black, but am really taking a liking to bronze wheels. Not gold wheels or even light bronze, but bronze to dark bronze. Anyone have any pics of a 2nd gen DCSB w/ bronze 17" TRD Sport wheels painted/dipped/powdercoated bronze? What do you think about dark bronze wheels on a pyrite mica?

UK & World News
Dorries Makes Dig At PM As She Enters Jungle
Suspended Tory MP Nadine Dorries has apparently taken a swipe at David Cameron as she entered the jungle for ITV1's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
She was asked what behaviour she would not tolerate from her fellow contestants and responded: "I do not like arrogant people who think they are born to rule."
Her comment revived memories of her infamous description of the Prime Minister and Chancellor George Osborne as "arrogant posh boys".
She will be summoned to meet Conservative chief whip Sir George Young on her return to the UK, to discuss whether she will have the Tory whip restored.
Mrs Dorries, who admitted being a "thorn in Mr Cameron's side", flew out to Australia without telling her Conservative Party colleagues she was to be a contestant on the show for up to a month.
She justified her absence by saying it would help voters see a new side to politicians - and unlike some colleagues, she had never previously taken a week away during parliamentary time.
"I haven't even had time to watch the show," she said of the previous series. "And so I definitely don't have a game plan. I just want to be myself."
The 55-year-old's constituency chairman said a special meeting of Conservative Association members in Mid Bedfordshire would be called to decide whether any action should be taken against her.
But her suspension was branded "loony" by former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe, who appeared on Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Fit Club.
Miss Widdecombe said it made Tory whips look heavy-handed and could backfire on the Conservative Party if the MP proves popular with millions of viewers.
"If Nadine does get it right out there, they have got themselves into a very silly situation," Miss Widdecombe told BBC Radio 4.
"Why on earth couldn't they have said it is a matter between Dorries and her constituents and left it at that? Silly, silly idiots."
Mrs Dorries will be joined in the jungle by Colin Baker, Eric Bristow, Charlie Brooks, Brian Conley, David Haye, Helen Flanagan, Ashley Roberts, Linda Robson and Hugo Taylor. The new series starts on Sunday.

International Youth Development Programming
The 4-H youth development model has been replicated in over 80 countries around the world. These programs operate independently, as there is no international 4-H organization. However, through international exchanges, global education programs, and communications, they share a common bond.
International Positive Youth Development
It is USDA/NIFA's policy to promote positive youth development in the United States, and to draw upon that deep experience to assist with similar positive youth development activities around the world.
4-H and International Positive Youth Development Programs
While the 4-H program — its name, emblem and brand — is authorized for enriching the lives of America's youth, much of the experience gained over the years by Cooperative Extension youth development leaders is relevant to those around the world who want to organize programs for promoting positive development of their young citizens.

SPI Performance (2000-2004) The place to chat about any 2.0L Split Port Injection engine performance, tuning and exhaust related upgrades.
Thread Tools | Display Modes |
Focus Rookie
High Nox emissions after rebuild
I just finished rebuilding my 2001 SPI after failing my previous emissions test for slightly too much hydrocarbons and dropping a valve seat shortly thereafter. I had the crank turned, put new bearings, pistons, rings, timing belt, timing component kit, head with hardened valve seats, head bolts, thermostat, water pump, oil pump, and all new gaskets. I cleaned the block inside and out, deglazed the cylinders, cleaned the intake manifold, egr and throttle body. Of course I also changed the oil and filter as well. I have a new radiator, I flushed the cooling system, and I put new antifreeze. Right before it dropped the valve seat I changed the air filter and oxygen sensors. The car was running somewhat rough at times and seemed sluggish after having done all of that, I ultimately found this to be caused by the original fuel pump module lines being brittle and cracked. After replacing the fuel pump with the newer style pump and replacing the fuel filter, the car is running like it never has. I took it to the smog station and it failed the functional check for "MIL/Check engine light test due to failure to successfully complete all OBD self tests" which I understand was caused by the fact that I don't have enough drive cycles after resetting the computer. I am not too worried about that. What concerns me is that it failed the sniffer test as well, here are my results: 15mph FAIL RPM 1833 CO2 14.7 O2 0.1 HC 46 MEAS 61 MAX CO 0.20 MEAS 0.54 MAX NO 816 MEAS 467 MAX 25mph PASS RPM 1759 CO2 14.7 O2 0.1 HC 31 MEAS 45 MAX CO 0.15 MEAS 0.53 MAX NO 751 MEAS 754 MAX So far, I have checked for vacuum leaks and I found none, I also checked my pcv valve and it was not clogged, however I did notice that I just barely had it twisted into the hole, so it could have been sucking air from the environment rather than the actual crankcase. I checked the EGR for function by unhooking the line going from the egr regulator and attaching it directly to the egr valve, at which point the idle became extremely rough and the motor died, as it should. I noticed that with the egr regulator hooked up correctly I could not seem to get any vacuum on the line that goes from the regulator to the top of the egr valve, even when I revved the motor above 2,000 RPMs, does this indicate that I have a faulty egr dpfe or vacuum solenoid? I used generic O2 sensors from ebay that I had to splice in, could this be my problem? Also the engine has less than 25 miles so I don't know it that could be part of my problem. I didn't heat my cat up by driving on the freeway like I normally do right before smog, but my car was up to operating temp. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated! I really need to get this thing back on the road and I would hate to have to shell out the money for a "hot smog" when my car is completely stock and passes the smog test in every other aspect. |

In the decadent surroundings of London's 5* Hyatt Regency hotel, members of the MBA Brighton team enjoyed a day of content management action with other EPiServer partners and customers. The annual event focused on the latest version of the popular content management system, CMS 7. This upgrade aims to improve users' ability to manage content seamlessly across screens and channels. In the new responsive world this will become ever more important for brands trying to reach consumers in clever and exciting ways.
Another focal point of the event was personalisation of website content, including a passionate presentation from Pizza Hut restaurants about their new website, which aims to make content more relevant by remembering a user's journey. This capability also works well for retailers with large catalogues, allowing websites to pull in data from long-lost product ranges.
There was also an interesting discussion on the customer experience that has changed so much in recent years. Creative technology, such as Perch, is helping to create innovative campaigns such as Adidas' NEO window shopping experience. Integrating this kind of digitally immersive consumer experience will be key to the success of well-known high street brands and established digital players alike.
Exciting times ahead…

How to Tell if an Egg is Bad | Egg Test
Easter is just around the corner and that means it is time to decorate eggs. Have you ever wondered if those eggs in your refrigerator are still good to use? Here is an easy egg test you can use before you begin to decorate.
Supplies: water, cup or bowl and an egg
The Egg Test:
1. Fill up a bowl or cup with water. You will need enough water for the egg to be completely covered.
2. Place the egg carefully in the cup of water. You do not want to break it especially if it's a bad egg.
3. If it floats its no longer good to eat. If it sinks and lies flat at the bottom it is good to eat.
The reason for this is the air pocket inside the egg. Even though eggs have a hard shell they are still porous and allow air inside. As the egg ages more air enters allowing them to float.
Once you have determined if your eggs are good or bad, it is time to decorate them for Easter!

text: Apple beats on sales of $35.3B by Philip Elmer-DeWitt @FortuneMagazine July 23, 2013, 8:55 PM EST E-mail Tweet Facebook Google Plus Linkedin Share icons FORTUNE — Apple beat Wall Street's lowered expectations on both the top and bottom lines Tuesday, reporting earnings of $7.47 per share on sales of $35.3 billion. Apple AAPL closed down $7.32 (-1.72%) for the day, as if the Street had been tipped off that there was bad news coming. But it bounced nicely in after hours trading. "We are especially proud of our record June quarter iPhone sales of over 31 million and the strong growth in revenue from iTunes, Software and Services," said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. The big disappointment was iPad sales. Without a new model to drive purchases, Apple sold only 14.6 million iPads — 2.4 million fewer than it sold in the same quarter last year. "Since we continue to view iPhones as the most important part of the story," Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster told clients, "we view the overall report as slightly better than expected." The numbers: Sales: $ 35.3 billion, up 0.8% year over year. A June quarter record. Net profit: $ 6.9 billion, down 21.6% EPS: $7.47, down 19.8% iPhone: 31.2 million units, up 20% iPod: 4.57 million units, down 32.3% iPad: 14.6 million units, down 14.3% Mac: 3.8 million units, down 6.6% iTunes/Software/Services: $3.99 billion, up 24.7% Gross margin: 36.9% Revenue guidance: $34-$37 billion Gross margin guidance: 36%-37% Cash and marketable securities: $146.6 billion, up from $145 billion The conference call has begun.

Starting Back at School Again
November 7, 2012 in Team Sperry Blog
Dear all,
Time is flying by as usual! It has been a very busy month… I am back in school and boy it's hard! I have been going to university for one month now and I'm getting back into it, after a 2-year break. At first it was weird because I knew nobody, since all my friends are graduated, but I made some new buddies and I'm starting to love it. The courses are also very interesting which makes things alot easier. I have been going to almost all classes but I haven't had any time to study in the weekends or evenings because I have so much other things to do. I hope I find some time before the exams start in January
I started training again two weeks ago, just to stay fit and not lose everything I build the last four years if I decide to do another campaign and continue to Rio. Also, I've been working hard in our apartment. It's completely broken down by now and we can almost start building it up again. Can't wait for the dust to be gone and the apartment to be finished. Finally our very own place! Clearly we have underestimated renovating, so much to do, think of and decide… Still, lots of fun! Read the rest of this entry →

Why!!!! does this have to be discontinued:( It smells sooo good, like yummy vanilla ice cream. It is non cloying, non sickening it is perfect vanilla. It is the vanilla i have searched for for years. It is my all time favorite. True, lasting power isn't fabulous and it is slightly sticky since it's also 'kissable' but I'm totally willing to deal with this since it is free of icky notes. I would buy it in bulk if it weren't discontnued..SOOOOOOO dissapointed:( Wah!

I think I've figured out Dessert Beauty fragrances - the Treats line, which is also cheaper than the original line - lasts longer. A couple of days ago I was wearing Cupcake, a guy ;-) commented and asked what I was wearing and said it smelled divine. I mind you that this was at the end of the day, after I had been wearing it for probably at least 9 hrs.

I got this a few days ago at Walmart for $5 in the clearance bin, but I read the review on here before I got it and I am pleasantly surprised with it. When you first spray it on it smells like vanilla and chemicals but a few minutes later it dries down, without any stickiness and it smells exactly like vanilla ice cream, i even asked some of my friends what did it smell like to them and they all said ice cream and it is not loud or overpowering just a soft sweet smell. BUT the lasting power is next to nothing and the bottle is juve but a GREAT buy for $5 a fun cute fragrance.

I have slowly been swapping to try some of the Dessert stuff, and this is one of the items that I DO really enjoy. The perfume is not as sticky as the other two (Candy/Cupcake) and its much longer lasting. Smells just like ice cream! Got this really cheap thanks to a TJ and a sweet swapper, and it was well worth it.

Got this for $5 at TJ Maxx - I was so excited!! This does smell really nice, a light creamy vanilla fragrance. It lasts about an hour on me, which I am okay with since I only want to catch whiffs of a fragrance all day, and I can reapply this at work and not worry about overpowering anyone. I never noticed a stickiness with this, and really I had a very positive experience with this. Why then, only 3 lippies? One lippie off for the bottle - yes, it's really cute, but I'm 28, not 13, and I don't think it looks right on my bathroom counter along with my "grown-up" perfumes. Another lippie off for the ORIGINAL pricetag of $25. There is no way I would pay more than 10 dollars for this, and I am so happy I found it for only 5. Really, Dessert should be ashamed for selling this as anything other than comparable to parfums de couer body sprays - no way does this belong in a Sephora.

I usually think Dessert Beauty stuff is junk but I actually like this. It dries down to a sweet, creamy vanilla that smells delicious. Surprisingly, the scent lasts almost all day on me, and isn't sticky at all.

Leader reputation and default in sovereign debt

This paper compares default incentives in competitive sovereign debt markets when leaders can be either democratically elected or dictators. When leaders can be replaced as in democracies, the incentives for repayment are mainly the ego rents from office and the possibility of getting a corrupt leader from replacement. In a dictatorship, on the other hand, the cost of not repaying loans is the permanent loss of reputation and the loss of future access to credit. There is a trade off between repayment and risk sharing. We show, counter-intuitively, that when ego rents are low, and value of reputation to dictators is high, then democracies repay more often and have lower risk premia than dictatorships.

What not to do on a longtail boat
Peace and relaxation await you on any of Southeast Asia's islands, but the boat ride to get there is often an unexpected dose of adventure. While many of the more popular islands rely mainly on large passenger speedboats and ferries for transport, many islands — such as Ko Libong, Ko Sukorn, Ko Adang, and Ko Bulon Lae — are still reached almost exclusively by longtail. In rough seas it can feel like a rollercoaster ride, and in calm conditions it's a pleasure cruise. In any case, a long tail ride is always a thrill.
Known as reua hang yao in Thai, these wooden, banana-shaped boats have been used in Thailand for hundreds of years, with today's versions usually featuring a diesel engine connected to a thin, lengthy rudder that resembles a long tail. These boats have proven to be agile and seaworthy vessels, perfect for shorter trips and shallow water. Before you get on board, however, it's worth considering what you should not do while skipping the waves.
First off, do not wear shoes. Many of the islands lack proper piers, and longtails are built to slide up close enough to the beach that passengers can hop on and off, which usually entails wading through a bit of water. Wearing flip flops or sandals that can be readily taken off or submerged in water is a good idea.
If there's some surf while getting on or off you could start out in ankle deep water, only to find a wave come in and soak you up to the thighs. Shorts rather than long pants are advisable, and you may even consider a bathing suit. Be prepared to hold your bags above the water while approaching a longtail, and when getting on and off at a pier take your time and make sure to have solid footing before stepping to and from the boat. You don't want to end up as an addition to a longtail driver's collection of rousing stories about tourists taking an unwanted dip.
So you've successfully waded through the surf or hopped from the pier; now that you're on board it's high and dry, right? Wrong; do not expect to stay dry on a longtail boat. If you get stuck in a bad seat during a ride in rough seas be prepared to get wet to the point of sitting in a decent downpour for a while, and even in calm seas the wake from a passing speed boat can slap you with a spray that can be an unwelcome wake up call.
For the driest seats look for a spot towards the back, away from the sides of the boat. If you get stuck at a seat towards the sides, especially on one of the front benches, be prepared for a shower. Although it may seem hard to believe, the platform at the very front is one of the driest places since this part of the boat cuts the ocean waves, sending the spray towards the boat's middle section. Even if the seas are perfectly calm make sure to protect any non-waterproof electronics with some kind of rain cover. Aside from the wetness factor, longtail rides can be bumpy, so hold a camera at your own risk.
If chartering a private longtail for just one or two people, do not think it's okay to stand up and move around the boat. This is particularly true in rougher seas. Longtails are not very big, and their weight is unequally oriented towards the back of the boat due to the heavy engine and driver. Often longtail drivers work in teams of two, with one handling the engine and steering in the back and the other lying at the very front of the boat to keep weight balanced. However, if you find yourself with a lone driver in rough seas it's best to sit at the very front. This is not only good for the boat's weight distribution but can also feel like a thrill ride as you bob up and down in the surf.
Finally, longtail drivers are often tried and true veterans of the sea, and they often feel that no storm is too treacherous for them. If you happen to approach the boat and see two-metre breaks out at sea with black storm clouds in the direction you're heading, do not wait for someone else to tell you it might not be the safest trip. Wait a few hours — or a few days if necessary — to ensure that your longtail ride will be a safe one.
There's nothing quite like a longtail boat ride, so follow these pointers, hop on, and enjoy the ride.
editor's note Speaking from personal experience, getting on an overloaded longtail, in storm conditions, where the boatman is quite obviously stoned off his rocker, is not wise. If you do as I did, be prepared to swim home.

It's interesting that longtails are uncommon for island trips in Thailand, here in the Philippines, you can't avoid the ride on a local bangka (kind of like the longtail, but with outriggers for extra stability).
# Davidon 12 Jan 2012 at 8:38 pm
I certainly wouldn't say they're uncommon in Thailand. There are hundreds around Ko Lipe alone; it's just that the more popular islands typically rely more on big speedboats for transporting people to and from the island, which is due to the sheer volume of visitors. Still, most who visit the Thai islands, especially the smaller ones, will take a longtail at some point.
Good info David!
I too can tell a few tails of longtail boat adventures, I have been travelling by longtail to work daily for the last 16 years.
The most common mistake I see people making is getting off the boat one leg at a time, ok in calm water but not a good idea in waves.One leg on and one leg off usually means you take a swim a bit sooner than expected (along with that brand new ipad!).
If your in Phuket drop by and say hello!
# Robert Kingon 29 May 2012 at 4:26 pm
Excellent info David! People often forget the fact to not move around… for me another tip is that sitting on your pack can be more comfortable than a wooden seat sometimes!

Is so funny to just be seeing this. Once christened by sea water is a lesson well learned. None of the 'boat' companies ever warn anyone about the wetness factor. Great write up, please re-post!

Plenty on the rivers in the north as well-have been on a longtail on both the Mekong & Kok rivers.

I am loving this guide, so far, I am playing more defensively and this guide is really nothing more than the truth. I know that on many occasions either me orsomeone else on my team experiance more than one of those topics and we look at the sparta moment and we win. IN twisted treeline, games are more fast paced and that is what makes it more exciting. I also die alot in TT and now a bit less with my mentality. Sometimes, if I was solo lane, well farmed, I will camp in a bush and let the bot lane to fight all the minions and when the eventual gank appears, I rush out and help him run even if it take my life because it means I am no longer the only one that is farmed anymore making our team together HOwever, I have to say that the more DPS a champ has, the kill poolgoes down.
Can I add you in-game? What server do you play on? Seriously, I absolutly love (no **** intended) people like you who play smart, maturely, and in a generally nice mood. I'm sure we all have had our fair share of the flaming, ragers, rage-quits, rage-feeds, rage-(I could go on but ill stop). Even if such players are on the enemy team, its an added bonus, because then when they reply 'nice kill' or 'ouch, good gank' when I kill them, I know they are also nice players who are here to have fun. It also lets me know that at least they, are not raging on their team, thus hindering the team's performance. If only players with your attitude existed, the gaming world would be a much better and entertaining place <Although I do sometimes find it entertaining when a rage flamer makes a complete fool out of himself in the process of trying to belittle me> It truly is nice to know that the League of Legends community still offers a variety of benevolent players such as yourself as opposed to the ignorant self-centered bunch.
I'm going to use my awesome-post-detector to Bring Up Many People so that they can see this thread.
bump means bring up my post Great points but it's too bad the people who need to read this probably never will, as with most similar guides.

9 is golden. It doesn't really matter if Annie goes in and nukes the hell out of the other team's weakest player. All proudly she screams I took one down, you guys don't' do any work. She fails to realize that now their whole team is a level ahead of us and next engagement will end up us barely losing because well 1 more skill point makes all the difference in a tied game. Not every kill is "SO WORTH IT!" as people love to spam after every kill/death trade.

Re: Draft based on...?
People forget that Sean Spence was looking like a beast in Preseason. I don't think ILB is a top draft concern. We need some depth, so we take a late round project player and keep Foote around for depth.
Hampton is probably done after this year. MClendon shows flashes when he is allowed on the field, Heyward is a beast and Hood is average. I think the D-line is pretty well set for the future or at least not an immediate draft concern. (Especially if Heyward and Mclendon play like we think they can and Ta'amu steps up)
The OLB position needs some help, Worilds is very lack luster and extremely injury prone, that goes for Sylvester too. Harrison will be around next year, he was hurt and is still not 100%, after he gets the off season to rehab I think he has a few good years left. The problem is Woodley is not a major impact player, and is often hurt. We need to look towards the future at this position and spend a low draft pick.
We all know our safety issues, this is a top concern.
At CB we are pretty well set, possibly use a mid round pick because Ike isn't getting younger and Cortez may not be able to step into the number 2 CB position. The current rules are geared toward a pass happy league, so another good CB cannot hurt.
Obviously we need a running back, we can find an extremely good one in the middle rounds..
So as I see it we need:

depth ILB

Most kids and adults are fascinated with the idea of Venus fly trap plants. These can be fun plants to have around and educational as well.
If you watch closely you can see the bugs being drawn to these plants. There are also several videos online where you can watch this, but it is not the same as seeing it yourself with your own flowers.
I have some striped cobra lilies that complement my hosta plants and seem to do well in indirect light to partial shade.
