Allen-Edmonds Reviews
Awesome shoes! These are the "coolest" shoes I own. I have several pair of Red Wings and these are best looking pair. Highest quality leather, no cheap Taiwanese components. I had to order a 1/2 size down and they could use a bit more padding/arch support but still the best looking shoes I own!
The belt arrived with waves in the leather. Not what we were expecting from what should be a high quality belt. Buckle was heavy and solid brass, which was nice, but the leather was wrapped too tightly around it and the belt was hard to maneuver. Overall, not happy at all with the belt and will be returning to Zappos.
I thought this was a great fitting, stylish shoe however I was very disappointed with the quality of construction. In less than one year, the heel sole has completely come apart on both shoes and there is slight separation of the vamp from sole. This from wearing only three days a week. For a fairly expensive shoe, I was expecting quite a bit more in quality....
It is a very nice belt. I am hoping for a long lasting quality. One warning: order one inch longer than what you need! Your waist size should be the last buckle hole yet they figured the length of the whole belt. That's my only gripe...
Great shoes, though toe is slightly more pointed than I'd like. Seems to run big; I'm having to order/try on sizes smaller than I ever have before.
Great shoe. Love the color which is warm and rich, and the insert but the shoe runs large so I returned it for a half size down.
I wanted a penny loafer that had an Italian, lower-profile. It had to work for casual, but not look like a clunky walking shoe. These have that look. They look great with jeans or a suit. I also wanted an American or Italian made shoe, not Asian. These are made in USA. My only reservation: they are very stiff leather. I think they're breaking in. But after being spoiled by soft Italian calf-leather shoes, these are a little harsh.
These are beautiful casual shoes. They look great with jeans and are dressy enough to wear with khakis out to a nice dinner, but feel as comfortable as sneakers. They were cut big, so we had to order a half size smaller than usual, even though my husband only wears Allen-Edmonds now, and we have plenty of size experience. No matter though, the smaller size fits great and he loves them.
I ordered these in a narrow width and they fit great. They took a while to break in but now they are very comfortable. Overall this a great shoe. I have had people compliment these shoes.
I love these shoes! I was hesitant to pay this price for a basic moc, but I have a narrow foot, and have very few choices available in this type shoe. I'm very happy with these. The B width is a true B width. Fit is perfect, and they look great too! As always, Zappos was awesome to deal with!
Well made: yes, so what? Any shoe over this cost is well made. They only look like boots: can't take NYC at 30F. Just a 10 minute walk to the subway and my feet are frozen stiff. Had to buy wool inserts which helped a bit but still freezing from the top. Even my simple dress shoes have a very thin insulation layer and handle January 2015 better. Can't take them to the office neither: get too hot and sweaty. Also slippery with the leather sole. The only thing I really liked was the pictures above (I got hypnotized I guess). No dice for me, sorry.
Tight through the arch. Thought it would loosen, it never did. The sole of the left shoe squeaked incessantly and could not be tamed. AE replaced the pair without hesitation. Good service.
The shoe looks great. The size is a bit wide for me and does not break in easy. The shoe is very firm...not soft and pliable.
I gave these to my husband for Christmas and it was a HUGE HIT...he's beyond "picky" and he says these are the nicest boots/shoes he has ever had. They are well made, beautiful style, and are getting better with each time he wears them. We highly recommend these to anyone. (Oh, and he has a wide foot and the usual size fit him perfectly. He is beyond picky about this too!)
These shoes were a great investment! I love how they look and feel on my feet. Very comfortable. They look good with my dress/work wear as well as with a pair a jeans when going out on the weekends. This is my first pair of Allen-Edmonds and I'll be buying more in the future for sure. They do run small though...about a half size. I wear a 10.5-11.0 usually and I went with a 10 in these.
Ordered my regular AE size and these were too short; by a half size. Disappointed. Nice looking loafer. Size up .5 at least.
I purchased AE Carlyle directly from AE. The first pair had defective leather top, the same happened also for the replacement pair. Although the 2nd replacement (3rd pair) still had leather defects, I selected to keep it as the defects not so visible and I was tired of the repeated procedure of taking the shoes back to the store and waiting to pick up the replacement after several weeks. As my 6-7 years old AE shoes are still in great shape, I have not put this new pair to use for several months. Last weekend I attended a party wearing my new pair of Carlyle. After walking in New York City for less than an hour (mainly across the central park twice), I found the tip of the sole had been worn down for about 10%. Then I checked my 6-7 year old pair of AE shoes and the whole sole has not been worn down by 2% in any place. Ironically I tried to post this review at AE website on the webpage for this particular shoes. However AE selected to ignore my review and did not post it. They just don't like bad reviews of their products. Allen Edmonds was sold in 2006, then sold again in 2013. No wonder its quality has been in steady decline.
Beautifully made and super comfortable. My husband was being cheap and buying less expensive shoes but finally broke down and got these. He said they were a little snug first thing in the morning but by the end of the day, he sent an email that he loved them!
Thanks again to Zappos and my wife who helped me to find these nice dress belt to go with my new summer suit. I searched other department stores and brand retail stores but it was just easier to find one from Zappos. The leather is high quality. The style is simple and modern. The metal part isn't too shining. Very versatile. Looks like it will last for a long time. Excellent buy!

Paint-pot US 323420 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) (No Model.) 0. M. HILLS. PAINT PDT. No. 323,420. Patented Aug. 4, 1885. N' ui WITNESSES INVENTOR ATTORNEY N. PETERS. Phamumn n hu, Wuihington. D. C. UNITED STATES V PATENT @rrrcn. CAROLINE M. HILLS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. PA|NT=POT. SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 323,420, dated August 4, 1885. (No model.) To 5025 whom it may concern.- Be it known that I, CAROLINE M. HILLS, a citizen of the United States and resident of Chicago, Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Pots for Cleaning Paint Brushes, reference being had to the accompanying drawings illustrating the invention. The present invention relates to new and improved means for cleaning artists and painters brushes. In all kinds of painting it is necessary that the brushes be cleaned from time to time, and sometimes very often; and this is especially the case with artists brushes, which have to be cleaned so often that the ordinary means for that purpose are too tedious and perplexing. To obviate this difficulty,l have invented a pot for cleansing painters brushes, and its nature is as follows: A receptacle is made of metal, and preferably in cylindrical form, and somewhat higher than its diameter, and proiecting inward from a point a little distance from the top is a. flange of suitable strength to support the cleaning-cup, and to turn the overflow from the wipings of the brush back into the pot. The cup is supported by brackets resting on the said flange, and between the cup and the flange is a space for the return of said overflow cleaning material. To facilitate the wiping of the brush, a burr is turned inward on the top edge of the cup, and to remove the cup ears are attached. The periphery of the cup is of solid sheet metal, but the bottom is made of perforated 1netal,so that when the pot is supplied properly with benzinc or other cleaningliquid it comes up some little distance into the cup, according to the size of the brush to be cleaned. The cleaning is done by placing the brush in the liquid and rubbing it gently on the perforated metal, which will not only clean the brush but the paints will precipitate to the bottom of the pot, and leave the benzine in the cup compartively clear. Vhen not in use, the pot is to be securely closed to prevent the evaporation of the cleaning fluid and to keep dirt out. The paints precipitated to the bottom of the pot can be removed and used for such purpose as they are suited, the benzine being first drained off and the balance evaporated. Figure 1 is a perspective representation of a mechanism embodying my invention, with the periphery of the pot and cup broken away to show the construction, and the cover shown open. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional elevation thereof on line as, Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a plan View with the cover removed. A represents the pot, which in practice can be made of tin, and externally japanned or ornamented for artists use, and I prefer that its height should exceed its diameter. On the inside of this pot, a little distance down from the top edge, is formed an internal flange, B, which serves to support the cup 0, and a guide for directing the overflow from the wiping of the brush back into the pot. The object of placing the flange down from the top of the pot is that no paint or cleaning material shall come in contact with the exterior of the device. The cup is also made of tin,witha perforated bottom, D, and abnrr, E, is turned inward on the top edge to serve as a scraper to remove the cleaning fluidfrom the brush. Three or more brackets, F, are secured to the periphery of the cup to sue pend it from the flange B, and to the periphery is also attached eyes G,for lifting the cup from the pot. From this it will be seen that the space between the cup and the flange is about equal to the diameter of the wire braclr ets, but that the space between the periphery of the cup and inside of the pot is something more than the width of the flange B. This allows sufficient space for any overflow to pass down. The periphery of the cup being solid, any paint in the overflow cannot enter the cup but must fall to the bottom. The advantage will be understood by reference to the fact that it is the most diiiicult to clean thepaint from the brush nearest the handle or stock, and that in wiping the brush on the burr E some of that paint will ooze out from above the contact of'the brush with the burr. 'An ordinary cover, H, is hung to the pot, whereby the contents are kept clean and from evaporating. Having thus described my invention, what I claim,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- In pots for cleaning paint-brushes, the pot A, provided with flange B and cover H, in combination with the removable cup 0, having a solid periphery and perforated bottom, D cup for the precipitated paint, .as specified eyes G, and bracket-supports F, attached to and shown. its periphery and extending down past the 1 T flange B, and separating it from the cup, and (JAROLILE HILLS 5 forming a space for the overflow from wiping W'it-nesses: the brush, the cup and pot hax ing such a rela- A. G. MoREY, tix e height as will allow a chamber below the G. L. OHAPIN. Referenced by

I am very satisfied with my Cherokee. I believe that it is one of the best values for the money. My Cherokee has over 200,000 miles on it and has never left me stranded or without transportation. The only things that I have ever replaced on it are the power steering pump and the alternator. Both started to make noise and I was able to replace them before they failed completely.

Roman - Gone Too Soon
In Memory of my beloved puppy Roman.
Your life was taken from you last night by a car, and I am sorry I let you down. You are missed so unbelievably much we don't know how we will ever move on. This house isn't a home without you and I wish every second time could be re-winded. I had so many plans for your life with us and you were the most beautiful perfect dog. Will mourn you for a lifetime. You were my one dog and I lost you and I am so sorry. |

Walking down the boulevard of Champs Elysees, breathing in the invigorating demeaner of the grand Jardin Des Tuileries, enjoying the gourmet dishes served in the most praised restaurants in Paris as I observe the pomp of Persians passing by their quotidian lives- I truly miss Paris. These are among the numerous components which are portrayed in my artworks. With all my qualities settled in the city of Paris, I never thought I'd leave France for affection.
Love. I never thought I was one to discover it. Disastrous in all my interest, I arrived at my nadir two years back when I thought I was never going to discover my better half.
As I kept on wallowwing in my wretchedness, my companion who exists in the US came to Paris to display her painted creations. We began making up for lost time with old times; she started to sooth me over my fizzled relationships. Being the great companion that she generally was, she started scrounging through thoughts on the best way to discover love. She recommended I sign up on a dating site, a site she swore numerous single well off men and effective singles discovered their sweethearts. "Est tu malade? I can't even discover love when its all said and done, and you think I could think that it online?" I laughed at the thought. Yet she contorted my arm and had me sign up either ways.
As a visual craftsman myself, I selected those men who were in my field. Luckily I discovered an attractive caretaker who talked familiar French, yet sadly existed in London. The relationship was moving at a quicker pace than I had expected. We both were basically intrigued by the same things: Art, Music, Food and motion pictures. Practically consistently we would call one another, have these charming feature dates.
Our first genuine date, on the other hand, came after three months when I welcomed him to Paris for my Art presentation at Musee du quai Branly. The best part was that he wasn't new to Paris; he had frequented the city for business matters, and he knew all the sentimental spots to set our dates. Those short five days were flooding with incoherent snickers and unlimited looks at one another's eyes.
Our felicity was abridged upon his flight to London. We took a stab at coming back to our ordinary sentimental schedules, yet those days we used in Paris were what we subtly yearned. So we masterminded an alternate date- this time me going to London. The sentiment proceeded with and climaxed to the point where an alternate takeoff reached its Waterloo. In the wake of expanding on who ought to move, I chose I ought to be the one, in light of the fact that as a craftsman I had the capacity work anyplace, though he as a caretaker who claimed a display in London proved unable.
Much the same as that, I moved to London, leaving my family and my entire life behind. Yet it was all worth the trouble. He satisfies me in ways that words can't suffice to portray. It's been a year and half now and our affection is still new. I can't accept I discovered my better half, and my new muse: London.

"Truly Awful"
Diamond Crown Maximus #1
Was given one as a gift and threw it into the fire pit after about a dozen puffs. It was rolled poorly, the burn was already uneven, and it tasted horrible.
About the only nice thing I can say is the label was pretty.

Don't know what all of the fuss is about! Their are cigars a forth of the price that taste just as good! But you would rather hold the Diamond in your hand to impress someone! Take the bands off most cigars and you would not even know the difference!!

"Better than Opus X ?"
Diamond Crown Maximus #2
I got this fine cigar in a two pack with an Opus X of the same size from the Big Smoke in Las Vegas November 2008. I smoked the Opus X and I thought that it was a good smoke, but I didn't think it was great. I'm sure there will be those out there that will say I'm crazy...Sorry, it just didn't suit my taste...
I return to the scene of the crime when I went back to Vegas in June 2009 for Vacation and I brought the DC Maximus with me. Wow! Very flavorful, beautiful ash, and great aroma. This cigar got a 10 out of 10 in my rating. There is not one thing bad I can say about this stick. Well, there is one thing. It's an expensive cigar, but a quality worth every penny.
Yes, I though that this cigar was better than the Opus X it came with.

When we published our Michael Bolton interviews earlier this week, we forgot to mention that he'll be speaking at a bunch of testing events/seminars in the months ahead. So if you're in these areas and want to see Michael speak in person (as opposed to Youtube) you owe it yourself to attend.
That said, here are a few upcoming testing events:
- "Why is Testing Taking So Long?" – Michael will be giving an interactive talk on this topic at the Markham meeting for TASSQ, the Toronto Association of System and Software Quality, on Wednesday, February 10, 2010.

Yes, humour can reside in the booth when recording long form narration!
Watch Kirby Heyborne as he talks about narrating audiobooks.
Going into the Victoria Day weekend (Canada), and also APAC and the Audies, I thought it would be fun to share a laugh-out-loud funny video about audiobook narration I found on AudiobookCommunity.com.
With comedic timing and humour the likes of Steve Carell, musician, actor and narrator Kirby Heyborne does a great job of bringing the funny into audio recording.
When I asked some of you via Facebook what makes audiobook recording fun, I received the following answers:
"The first audiobook that I narrated was a self-help book. I had the privilege of working closely with the author who encouraged me to read honestly and intimately through each chapter. It was an amazing experience! When I listen to it now, I still hear the segments that touched me deeply during the recording sessions."
"I just enjoy telling a story. The more characters in the book, the better."
-- Brian Bascle
Looking forward to your thoughts! Comments regarding Kirby's video are also welcome :)
I got my first audiobook job through Voices.com. I've recorded 6 books so far and it's the most fun I've ever had as a vo artist. I want MORE!!! I have encountered Russian, Chinese, South Carolina Southern and Australian accents in the mysteries, which was certainly challenging, but THEN I read a British history book and have never in my life encountered so many tough Old English pronunciations, so I had to work with the author on that one. It is a blast, and I am working towards finding more!
Posted by:First, regarding Kirby's video: That was fun. It made me laugh!
Thank you.
I've recorded fiction, non-fiction and even some textbook material.
I think novels, short-stories, etc. are some of the Most Fun it's possible to have as an actor! I Love the fact that I get to play Everyone, all the men, all the women, older folks, kids....
I so enjoy using various accents and voice ages.
Truly hoping God has more of this in store for my future.
Anyone who gets to do this is truly blessed.
Matilda Novak
SO funny! =D
Posted by:I literally couldn't stop laughing! The video gets even funnier with each viewing. Kirby is hilarious!
Posted by:Absolutely made my day with that. Thank you!

I was hoping to get some help on a recipe that would have the typical guiness clone ingredients and add the pepsi flavor. My buddies love dirty beers as theyre called and a favor has been brought forth. I know I can get cola from the health food store for use in home remedies for naseua and such but how could I incorporate that into an all grain guiness clone recipe? Any help would be much appreciated!
All-Grain - Guinness Draught Clone Recipe Type: All Grain Yeast: Nottingham Batch Size (Gallons): 5.5 Original Gravity: 1.053 Final Gravity: 1.013 IBU: 43 Boiling Time (Minutes): 90 Color: 24.7 Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 10 Days at 65 Additional Fermentation: no Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 10 Days at 65 Tasting Notes: I have been working at making a clone, This is pretty much spot on. Guiness Draught Clone 68% Eff. 8.00 lb Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM) Grain 66.67 % 3.00 lb Barley, Flaked (1.7 SRM) Grain 25.00 % 1.00 lb Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM) Grain 8.33 % 2.00 oz Goldings, East Kent [6.20 %] (60 min) Hops 43.0 IBU 2 Pkgs Nottingham Yeast (Lallemand #-) Yeast-Ale Mash: 3.75 Gal 170.5 Degrees for 45 Min 2.50 Gal 185.0 Degrees for 20 Min Batch Sparge Round 1 2.50 Gal 185.0 Degrees for 20 Min Batch Sparge Round 2 Cool to 65 Pitch Nottingham let ferment 10 days at 65, Rack to Secondary for 14 days at 65. Brewers note: To get the sourness of guiness. 1 Week before brewing put 24oz of Guiness in a bowl and sit it on the counter for 4 days to get sour. Freeze until brew day, On brew day remove and thaw. When there is about 30 mins left in your brew put the sour guiness on the stove and boil it for 10 mins then add it to flameout on your brew. Brewers note two: Remember when brewing this beer that you will not get the creaminess of Guiness unless you have Nitrogen Injection. However the Taste is spot on. Enjoy As far as adding cola i have no idea, i would assume you add it at the end of boil.
Thanks for the reply, this seems the best clone around for guiness. Was hoping to get more info on adding the cola ingredient. My thought is maybe adding half or so (flat?) pepsi at the bottling stage so not to interfere with the brew. Sugars may throw things off too much.
Make a dry stout recipe (the above if you wish) and at bottling, add a little bit of cola extract (found at LHBS soda section) until the flavor is to your liking. Don't add the soda extract pre-fermentation.
Thanks for the help everyone!
Have never heard of a dirty beer. Just curious, but where do people drink these? You would just pour half and half pepsi and stout?
My wife calls them a shandy not a dirty beer. I call it a waste of beer
Taps: 1: Empty 2: Scottish Export 80 3: Hef-wit Fermenting: English Mild, Cabernet Sauvignon, Barkshack Mead
Im not a fan myself, too sweet for my blood. My buddies get them at the local pub in ossippee new hampshire, probably a term they made up with the bartender.

Drought threatens to close Mississippi to barges
By The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- After months of drought, companies that ship grain and other goods down the Mississippi River are being haunted by a potential nightmare: If water levels fall too low, the nation's main inland waterway could become impassable to barges just as the harvest heads to market.
Any closure of the river would upend the transport system that has carried American grain since before steamboats and Mark Twain. So shipping companies are scrambling to find alternative ways to move tons of corn, wheat and other crops to the Gulf Coast for shipment overseas.
"You can't just wait until it shuts down and suddenly say, `There's a problem,'" said Rick Calhoun, head of marine operations for Chicago-based Cargill Inc. "We're always looking at Plan B."
The mighty Mississippi is approaching the point where it may become too shallow for barges that carry food, fuel and other commodities. If the river is closed for a lengthy period, experts say, economic losses could climb into the billions of dollars.
It isn't just the shipping and grain industries that will feel the pinch. Store prices and utility bills could rise. And deliveries of everything from road-clearing rock salt for winter and fertilizer for the spring planting season could be late and in short supply.
"The longer it lasts, the worse it gets," said Don Sweeney, associate director of the Center for Transportation Studies at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. "It's inevitable that it will mean higher prices down the road."
The focus of greatest concern is a 180-mile stretch of the river between the confluences of the Missouri River near St. Louis and the Ohio River at Cairo, Ill. That's where lack of rain has squeezed the channel from its normal width of 1,000 feet or more to a just a few hundred feet.
The river depth is 15 to 20 feet less than normal, now about 13 feet deep in many places. If it dips to around 9 feet, rock pinnacles at two locations make it difficult, if not impossible, for barges to pass. Hydrologists for the National Weather Service predict the Mississippi will reach the 9-foot mark by Dec. 9.
The situation worsened last week when the Army Corps of Engineers began reducing the outflow from an upper Missouri River dam in South Dakota, where a group of experts said Thursday that the worst U.S. drought in decades had intensified sharply over the last week.
The flow is gradually being cut by more than two-thirds by Dec. 11 as part of an effort to ease the effects of the drought in the northern Missouri River basin.
Lawmakers from Mississippi River states are frustrated with the corps' action and even requested a presidential emergency declaration to overturn it. So far, the White House has not responded.
On Thursday, Army Assistant Secretary Jo-Ellen Darcy told Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois and some of his colleagues from Iowa and Minnesota that the corps would consider dialing back the amount of water being held back from the Mississippi.
Darcy also pledged to expedite removal of rock formations south of St. Louis, though that work would take at least two months after a contractor is hired.
To Sen. Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat, the stakes couldn't be higher.
"There is going to be a dramatic ripple effect to our economy if the barge traffic grinds to halt, which clearly it will if something is not done to avert this crisis," she said.
Her Missouri colleague in the Senate, Republican Roy Blunt, acknowledged "friction" between upper Missouri River interests that control the flow and those downstream on the lower Missouri and Mississippi rivers. He said the corps "needs to manage that balance."
Over the years, parts of the river have occasionally been closed because of low water, barge accidents, dredging, ice and flooding. But this shutdown, if it happens, would affect a pivotal stretch that is used for two-way traffic - shipments going south to the Gulf as well as transports from the Illinois and Ohio rivers headed north to Chicago and Minneapolis.
A two-month shutdown - the length of time that some observers fear given current conditions - would have an estimated impact of $7 billion, according to the river industry trade group American Waterways Operators.
Consider agricultural products. It costs 30 to 35 cents more per bushel to send grain to the Gulf by rail instead of barge - a massive figure when calculating the millions of bushels shipped downriver.
"When you think of all we buy at the grocery store that has grain and corn, consumers could really see it hit them in the pocketbooks," said Ann McCulloch of the Waterways Operators group.
The Coast Guard controls navigation on the river and decides when to require restrictions or shut it down.
"It's really played by ear," Coast Guard Lt. Colin Fogarty said. "The Mississippi River is a dynamic environment."
River shippers are bracing for the worst, weighing train and truck alternatives to move a staggering volume of cargo, if necessary.
Seven million tons of farm products are shipped via barge in a typical December-January period, along with 3.8 million tons of coal, 1.7 tons of chemical products, 1.3 tons of petroleum products and 700,000 tons of crude oil, McCulloch said.
Trains already haul a vast volume of material, but switching from river to rail isn't that easy, especially on short notice. Cargill, for example, uses 1,300 of its own barges on inland waterways. Finding that much capacity elsewhere is no simple task.
"We'll look for other sources of transportation to the extent we can. But if you take away this important artery, you can't just snap your fingers and replace it with trains," Calhoun said. "There aren't just trains sitting around. They're already pretty busy with their business on their books."
Tractor-trailers can pick up some of the slack. But some cargo, such as coal, just isn't cost-effective to haul by truck over long distances, said Bob Costello, an economist with the American Trucking Associations.
Businesses operating directly on the river are bound to suffer, too.
George Foster founded JB Marine Service Inc. in St. Louis 36 years ago to make a living fixing and cleaning barges. An extended river closure may force layoffs, he said. And he figures many other companies will be forced to cut jobs, too.
"It's extremely dire," Foster said. "There's no way to sugarcoat it."

EAST END — Halloween may mean you have the opportunity to go out to just trick-or-treat, but in the East End it's much, much more. Halloween is an annual celebration.
The fourth annual East End Trick-or-Treat will take place from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday and is open to all area children, said Michelle "Boo" Lorenzo, who, along with her partner, Jan Zamperini, have been transforming their fabulous old-fashioned home into a haunted house.

The intersection will close at 6 p.m. Friday night, and it is expected to reopen at noon on Monday.
The railroad crossing replacement is part of the Elk Run Bridge Replacement and Routes 119 and 310 intersection widening project in Jefferson County.
This $3,351,119 bridge replacement and roadway construction project is being completed by Francis J. Palo, Inc., of Clarion.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Improvements to Jack F. Lamarca Stadium are still years in the future, as the Punxsutawney Area School Board discussed aluminum bleachers and a storage building that would be constructed adjacent to the stadium grounds at Wednesday's athletic committee meeting.
Read the full story in Friday's print edition of The Spirit.

Author information
Mark Z. Danielewski was born in New York City and lives in Los Angeles. He is the author of "House of Leaves," "Only Revolutions "and "The Whalestoe Letters."
Review quote
""The Fifty Year Sword" is a clever experiment in voice and structure, a prose poem consisting of cascading waves of dialogue spoken by five different narrators looking back on a single frightening night. . . . The joy of the book comes mostly from the physical act of turning the pages and scanning the layout, but the language deserves mention as well. In fact, some of the diction and words echo Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky" or James Joyce's "Finnegans Wake," as separate words and phrases collide to make one and bits of words rearrange to form new ones. . . . A rare treat for devoted book lovers." --"The Boston Globe" "This gorgeous trade edition . . . gives further evidence that Danielewski is one of the most gifted and versatile writers of our time." --"The Washington Post" "[A] captivating atmospheric journey, one that defies the norm of just reading a book. Danielewski, like his undeniably creepy and possibly ethereal antagonist, isn't merely a storyteller. He creates experiences, multi-dimensional pieces of art that don't conform to one genre, and that beg for physical engagement from the audience. "The Fifty Year Sword" follows in the tradition of Henry James' 'The Turn Of The Screw' and the work of Washington Irving, but in a distinctly postmodern context. It's a beautifully haunting, resonant multimedia adventure." --"The A.V. Club" "A seriously experimental confection of modern horror literature. . . . Composed mostly of dialogue, some attributed to various speakers, some not, some near-abstract drawings of needlework constructions, and a lot of white space--all wrapped in the pages of a very classy piece of book production--"The Fifty Year Sword" might be the oddest book of the year. In certain ways, it might be the most interesting and enjoyable. . . .

After discovering Asos, I've made 5-6 orders. About 15-20 pieces total. I got a knit Sonia Rykiel dress that is to die for! It was out of stock everywhere else. I love Asos for that. The Asos brand itself varies in quality, but has never led me to send anything back due to quality, and I'm pretty picky. I also love the runway video's to get a real sense of how something looks/fits/lays. Shipping is lightning fast and the free returns are wonderful! I'm surprised to see people groaning about their returns being difficult...the free sticker is in the bag with your items! Come on people...I was also pleasantly surprised at how quickly my money was back in my account...it was a day or two after they emailed to say they'd received my return. Yay Asos!

Originally posted by Aelious so in a game where there are approximately 25 pver's (which includes the pvp policers/blues) and 1 or so Reds/Gankers, how often do you feel you would be victimized if you had tools to prevent it? Not very often i would imagine. They would have a very difficult time getting close to new players, they would be vastly outnumbered, and hunted. You would know they are out there, they could attack at anytime, but the probababilities would be slim. and what value would you then put on these types of players if their purpose was nurtured instead of scorned, by allowing them ( with competition among themselfves for who gets to do this) to activate npc content, i.e seiging your castle, invading your mine, blowing up your bridge etc. it would no longer be the role of victim and greifer. Every advantage would be stacked against the hardcore, which s the way it should be. They would be content providers. why waste a perfectly useful resource? Everything has its place if used properly. give me 50 million and ill show you..lol |
I'm still waiting for a PvE focused sandbox myself. I love the concept of skill-based games, but every current offering is FFA full loot PvP. Sorry, but I want to mine / farm / lumberjack / craft / etc. without worrying about some asshat with GM in 'stabby-stabby skill' julienning my liver and taking all my hard-earned stuff for shits and giggles. |
Originally posted by coretex666 You can also get to max level by doing only crafting, its still not Minecraft or crafting-focused. The question is how does PVP tie into the game? It doesnt. The PVP is segregated away, its separate, might as well be another game entirely. I think its why Bloodline Champions and now Forge exist. |
How WoW did it in 2005 before Battlegrounds was the best, just mixing PVP and PVE in an open seamless world.

Even though I like having open world PVP in games I play, I still voted PVE. That's because: 1) We need more purely-PVE group based MMOs. 2) Developers apparently have a huge difficulty with balancing the game when they have to address both and make odd decisions that add up to nerfs upon nerfs. 3) I dislike where the PVE+PVP games are going design-wise, turning PVP more and more into mini-games, which I have no interest in. |
We may be talking about two seperate things. In my example before responding to you I figured if you had the same amount of OWPvP regions as strictly PvE regions, both featuring a full complement of content, in one gameworld there would be no need for secondary PvP systems that are tacked on after initial development. Those who want constant PvP while doing PvE can have it while those that want to be left in peace can stay that way. Of course there will be those of us in the middle who like to PvP but don't want to be forced into it 24/7. By creating seperate content for both in the same gameworld there would be an incentive to those PvP part timers to head into dangerous water and "join the fight" by way of PvE exploration. This in turn would create the same PvP dynamic content you were talking about. |
For pve and pvp balance to exit you need to have a method of balancing each independently, with out the balancing of one breaking the other. Which would mean a dual value system which each ability have one set of value for each (pve, and pvp.) that only influence that playstyle. After you can independently balance the systems for pvp an pve, you can start working on the sytems to govern the pvp in the game with risks, and rewards, and meaningful reasons for pvping, since the op/imbalance issues would not be there now. It is a matter of how well the game is balanced, and how well you re-balance it when it get out fo control. alot of the rest is just bonuses that wear off when you relise how limited an imbalanced it is.

Originally posted by AdamTM I always thought that the PvP is tied into the game lore-wise. There is this conflict between alliance and the horde. By segregated you mean that the BGs, Arena, etc are in a separate zone? There is still the OWPvP. You are basically exploring Azeroth and suddenly, you run into enemies and can PvP them which does not necessarily seem to be another game entirely. As I mentioned before, I do not claim you are wrong. I also do not claim it is PvP oriented game. All I am saying is that I do not see how the PVE is so much overwhelming Currently playing: L2 Chronicle 4 |
Originally posted by Asuran24 Yes but that gives you exactly what I was implying in my OP. Two separate games. |
Originally posted by Aelious im predominantly a pver, but i also like pvp. Im not saying that your model doesnt work, it does well for themeparks. im far from sold on the sandbox front though. You need a reason to build a great wall and place a bunch of guards on it. Developers dont have the resources, and scripts dont quite cut it do they? i just believe you need a bit of everything integrated for a world to exist. Not saying it has to be "full loot" or "Free for all". We know nothing chases players away faster. That dos not mean however that pvp must be 100% seperate either. |
Originally posted by coretex666 If you dont claim im wrong, why are you arguing with me? Certainly you think my assessment is -wrong-, you say so in your next sentence. I'm talking about mechanics not about lore. Afaik, vanilla didn't even have BGs or separate PVP. Over time, PVP got segregated out of the game into its own separate niche. If the PVP was tied into the mechanics, it wouldn't need separate zones/instances, servers and flags. The PVP would actually -do- something in relation to the PVE. |

If PvP had been more considerate to PvE I would have choose both. I play archer / rogue type characters and IN EVERY GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED I HAVE BEEN GIMPED because of the PvP contingent whining about stats. I am so sick of it I have grown to hate PvP'ers. Plus I don't want ganked. I spent all day on that quest chain I don't want slammed back to the starter point so I can go back again to get ganked yet again. Total not fun. |
The thought of equally sized but seperate PvP enabled and toggled regions was from a sandbox frame of mind as you would need to give breathing room if both are to have equal share. This would be a big, open world without reasonable physical boundaries (mountain ranges, etc.). There would be races or factions (player made or not), some opposed to others that would realistically create war zones. These would not just be open spaces to PvP. They would have the same sort of landscapes and activities as non PvP areas. The ability to build and have guards etc. would not really be a factor. You could build in any region, war zone or not, and go from there. The idea would be worse in a themepark IMO. When I say "regions" I'm not meaning seperate areas like WoW, Rift, etc. The lines would be invisible across the terrain and just notify you if you crossed it. I would enjoy this type of sandboxy style game anyways. It would create more dynamics which is what I like about sandbox features to begin with. |

Originally posted by AdamTM You look at the issue from a different perspective. Maybe in the context in which you speak, you are right. Maybe I am wrong, so you may be right. I am discussing, not arguing. It does not need to be a fight, does it. GW 2 has PvP separated from the world. Is it also a PVE oriented game? I think it is generally considered to be a PvP game. The way you define PVE oriented game, it would probably fit into this category. Currently playing: L2 Chronicle 4 |
Originally posted by Aelious why would i bother to build anything. It has no effect in the pve area, and the pvp area will be filed to the brim with hardcore goons which will destroy everything i build asap. 96% pve and 4% pvp. You only need 4% or so to provide endless content to the 96%. Less and is just a pve game, more makes it a gankfest. thats how i see it. |
Originally posted by rungard Yeah and that's why strictly PvP gamers don't get the quality of game they want. You need the PvEers as a buffer between the gankers and the other PvPers? So the 4% of PvPers use the 96% as their content and the 96% don't appreciate it and leave, it's not the other way around IMO. Spending time and money to be someone else's content is no go and unless you give them an equal space to do their thing, or choose to head into PvP, I don't think they will stay very long. On the purpose of building structures in PvE it would be the same motivation as PvP IMO, just to do it. It's the same idea as PvP. You engage in PvP to fight other people. Yes, land grabs/destroying structures is an added bonus but there are plenty of games that feature structure building that don't even have an MMO combat system. Last time I checked more people were playing those than MMORPGs lol. |
Originally posted by AdamTM I think its pretty obvious fromn the poll so far that the average MMO gamer is not a Forced PvP fan. I myself put both but there needs to be clear lines of demarcations and PvP should never be forced. |

I agree with you, Wayne. This did NOT have to happen. James Foley did NOT have to die. And yes, the blame belongs squarely on Barack Obama for his complete lack of leadership and seriousness in dealing with these monsters.
This president is inept, he is weak, our enemies know it and if it weren't so, James Foley would probably still be alive.
Earlier this afternoon I joined Midpoint Host Ed Berliner and the founder of Tea Party Nation Judson Phillips to discuss comments made by tea party leader Roy Nicholson, asking God to "be violent" against the Republican establishment.

Supercharge Your Rapport Building With These Social Selling Tips
Building rapport is something each and everyone of us must do to build relationships and establish new ones. For salespeople it is crucial. Buyers buy from people they like and you have only one chance to make a first impression. This means first contact needs to go well, it has to show you're competent, that you did your research, and that you're a like-able person they intend on dealing in the future. Here are some rules to help build rapport and bring chivalry back to sales.
LinkedIn is a gold mine. Use it!
Taking some time to view your potential business partner, customer, friend, or foe is necessary. LinkedIn is by far and away the best business social network for giving you a glimpse into someone's professional life. Did they work anywhere you did? Do you have any similar connections you can bring up in conversation or get referred by? Are they in any LinkedIn Groups you're in? Do you believe in any of the same charitable causes or attend the same schools? All these things can help you align yourself with the person and build off of a common bond you both may share.
Apply the social selling rule of 3 and be nimble.
Before meeting someone in person or ever getting on a phone call with them - search 3 different social networks for their name and find 3 compelling talking points. A google search usually accomplishes this, but I use a platform called Nimble to help me get a 360 degree view of people. When I enter them into the system, Nimble finds they're social networks and displays pertinent information about them along with aggregating their recent activity. Did they attend or talk at a recent conference? Do they like the Los Angeles Dodgers? Did they recently make a comment about a blog post?
Successful relationship builders will tell you people like to deal with people that they like and that they trust. Rapport involves showing that you can deliver on both of these. Using social media will allow you to align yourself with your audience, give you a common interest, and allow you to demonstrate value based on your assessment before meeting. Use the above tips to help you build rapport the next time you have a call, meeting, or presentation.

1987: Hawks v Demons in preliminary final classic
Rohan Connolly takes us back to 1987 when Hawthorn overcame Melbourne with a nailbitting finish in the preliminary final.
PT0M0S 620 349- Autoplay OnOff
- Video feedback
- Video settings
Former Hawthorn great Shane Crawford says the Hawks will have failed to fulfill their promise they don't win the AFL grand final.
Brownlow Medallist Crawford believes the 2012 Hawks have more depth and better circumstances in their favour than the 2008 premiership side he was part of.
But he pointed to the side Hawthorn beat for that upset flag win as proof of what can go wrong if a champion side doesn't perform on the day.
Shane Crawford after Hawthorn's 2008 grand final win.
''As we saw with Geelong in 2008, it doesn't always guarantee you success,'' Crawford said.
''You need to be right on the day, and you need a bit of luck on the day.
''Hawthorn have got some real star players, but it's the way they team together, and have a real team focus in everything they do.''
Crawford said the Hawks go into Saturday's preliminary final against Adelaide needing to win to at least guarantee a ''pass mark'' for their season.
But he believes the $1.55 premiership favourites must win the flag to deliver on their promise following a superb home-and-away season.
''They couldn't be in a better position to have an assault on winning their next premiership,'' Crawford said. ''They are really set up to come out and play really well at the MCG in front of their home crowd and have a win, and possibly go through to a grand final.
''I'd be extremely disappointed if they didn't win this week, and didn't win the premiership.''
