Country Treatment Chapter 1 - AndleyThe rural country air was warm, but not overbearingly so, and a light breeze ruffled the leaves of the few trees that scattered the hills. A squirrel scarpered up the trunk of a large tree, and horses grazed peacefully on the grass. It was almost-silent, away from the hustle-and-bustle of city life, though there was a small town nearby, the residents weren't incredibly noisy.Country Treatment Chapter 1 - Andley3 years ago in Drama More Like This
The town nearby was relatively small, and in it resided a couple-hundred people. Most houses were large, came with a couple of acres of land, and a stable. They dotted the countryside just outside the town, and created a homey, picturesque image.
In the town, there was only three shops, a restaurant/ cafe, a bank, and a town hall. There was also a school which took all grades. However, everyone knew each other, there was no crime, and there was an aura of peace and tranquility.
Cruising along the dry, cracked road, there came a pickup truck. It was almost vintage, but in good condition, and the dark bl
Savior - Andley - RequestI was on ledge outside the window of my apartment, six stories high. It was cold, but not too cold, more like a light breeze that ruffled my hair and tickled my skin.Savior - Andley - Request3 years ago in Romance More Like This
Below me, people had swarmed, and several police cars and ambulances were on standby. They'd only just arrived, and everyone was watching me -a small figure from their view- shouting out things like "Holy shit?" and "Don't jump!" Ha, like I'd listen to them.
I dragged the back of my hand roughly over my eyes, wiping away tears. I couldn't do this any more; this...facade. It was too much.
Everyone saw me as Andy Biersack, the one that had it all- in their opinions. I was popular. I had looks- I'd been a model for several years, now. Straight A student. Was on the track team. I was tall. I could sing. I was ultra-skinny. Almost everyone in the school, male or female, wanted in my panys. I was dating quarter-back, Matt Good, alpha-male of the school.
Yep, I was gay, but no-one cared, despite the fact that one of the things e
Strength In Numbers - BridecestJinxx groaned, the full effects of his hangover hitting him like a punch in the gut, as his gray eyes fluttered open. He could feel sweat and dry, cracked warpaint clinging to him, and he felt dirty, and far too hot.Strength In Numbers - Bridecest3 years ago in Romance More Like This
His head was pounding, but as a rockstar Jinxx was used to the feeling. Sitting up, he felt the thin white sheet that had covered him fall down his small torso, revealing his bare chest. Jinxx usually slept naked, so this didn't worry him, however, after struggling to think through his aching skull, he realised that he didn't know where he was.
As he shifted, a pain began to make itself known in his lower back. Jinxx clenched his teeth and grunted softly, bringing his hand down to rub the small of his back.
What had happened the night before, Jinxx didn't know. His thoughts were hazy, and his brain felt like mush, as though it had been chewed on and spat out. Blinking, Jinxx tried to open his eyes further, rubbing away the sleep from them.
Jinxx slowly began to

Little Ones chapter 1 (Jinxley/Jishley)It was raining out and I had just gotten off of work. Water poured from the evening sky like a literal waterfall, soaking me head to toe. Luckily I kept my phone in a plastic bag in case something like this were to happen, but I looked past the idea that I might actually need an umbrella.Little Ones chapter 1 (Jinxley/Jishley)2 years ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
The city street was bustling with Taxi cars, smart cars, car cars, FedEx trucks, you name it. I held a trash bag over my head to somewhat shield me from the pouring rain, holding out my thumb for a taxi. I missed the bus since I worked overtime today, and its not like I have my own car or anything. Actually my friend had taken the car for a day so he could get girls or something. I quietly promised to myself I'd never loan CC me car again.
After staggering a couple blocks with my head down and water pouring down from the top of my head to my face, a car pulled up next to me. It wasn't a taxi, it was actually a pretty fancy looking black car with dimmed windows. The driver rolled down the window and pe

"Bye mom," Andy said as he climbed out of the shotgun seat of his mothers station wagon. "I'll see you at the end of summer!"
"Bye dear, have fun at music camp!" Amy Biersack called back, smiling brightly. Andy nodded, slinging his rucksack over his shoulder, and carrying a duffel in one hand. He waited until his mother's car was a speck in the distance, before turning towards the camp's enterance.
The enterance was a wooden arch, with a brightly painted sign announcing 'Camp Making Music' as its name. Andy walked underneath it, head swivelling as he took in everything.
He was a late arrival, it was after lunch and most kids had arrived early in the morning. There was a big rush to grab bags, catch up with old friends, and find out dorm assignments.
From every direction, people were talking, laughing, running, it seemed never-ending. Some people were leaning against buses, rapping or drumming out rythmes, others were trading sheet music, or sitting on the ground playing guitar.
She'll Never Know (Jashley)"Jake are you sure you'll be fine with me visiting my Mum for a few weeks? I don't want you to be lonely." Ella smiled at me before she left for the air port.

"I will. I love you Jake."
"I love you too. Have fun. Tell your Mom I said 'hi'." I waved watching her walk out of the house. I was gonna miss her, sure, for like four minutes. When I was sure she was gone, I pulled out my phone and dialed Ashley's number.
"Hello?" He answered. He sounded tired.
"Hey Ash, Ella just left. Wanna come over and keep me company?"
"Yeah. I'll be over in a bit. Shower though, because I'm sure you smell worse than Jinxx." He laughed.
"I don't smell that bad."
"Jake, don't fool yourself. Just go take a shower. I don't want to be subjected to your stink." he laughed again.

Lifelong - AndleyAshley was 10 when he got his first babysitting job a the Biersack's house.Lifelong - Andley2 years ago in Romance More Like This
They had just moved in the neighborhood, and Ashley was impatient to wait another 6 years to get an actual paying job. He was too small and scrawny to be trusted with walking dogs, or fixing bikes and cars around the neighborhood either. Luckily, he was good at babysitting. He babysat his cousins all the time, so why not get a few extra dollars watching the neighbor's kid?
He was nervous. Very, very nervous. He wasn't sure how old the little Biersack was, he knew he was short and couldn't speak right normally, but he needed a job. Something to keep him occupied while everything was boring, and a few extra dollars wasn't too bad either. Ashley swung his leg over his bike and took off down the street, his skinny legs pumping and turning the petals quickly.
There was still a moving van outside their house, that's how new to the area they were. He saw Mr. Biersack carrying a stack of boxes out of the large orange U

Mmmm, just the way I liked it.Sequel- If You Love Me, Then Prove It - Andley3 years ago in Romance More Like This
As I drank, I thought about everything. Steering clear of Ashley, my thoughts gravitated towards the band I was in, Black Veil Brides. We weren't big, it was just me, Ashley, Chris Hollywood, Sandra Alva (my best friend) and David Pan. Well, it had been, anyway...
I heard the door open and looked up as mom entered the room, smiling tiredly at me. She had deep bags under her eyes, bright blue exactly like my own, which held a look of affection in them.
"Mom...you OK?" I asked, softly. Ever since I moved back in with them, my mom had been working over-time to accomodate me. I'd told her I was fine; I could make dinner and snacks for myself- she didn't need to worry about me. But my mom was never one to l

We all watched curiously as Andy squirmed on my lap, his brow scrunching up. Tiny snores excluded from his mouth, along with an occaisional unidentifiable gutteral noise from the back of his through.
Sammi stared intently sat him for a few minutes, and we waited with bated breath, not daring to move a muscle incase we broke her concentration. Her grey eyes slowly changed from determined to confused, and she looked up at me.
"Sammi, wha-" I was cut off from speaking as she grabbed my hand, tightly, and immediately I was launched into Andy's mind.
I was standing in a hospital, listening to the 'beep....beep...beep' of a heart monitor. I saw a younger version of Andy, hooked up to it. He looked battered and broken, his voice soft and slightly raspy. It broke my heart to see him like that, it really did. So...fragile.
He was talking to someone I didn't recognise, and both had tears streaming
A Band of Daddies - Bridecest"...Guys, we have a problem."A Band of Daddies - Bridecest2 years ago in Humor More Like This
Black Veil Brides were on tour in California, and that night would be playing the final show on their 'Church of the Wild Ones' tour. Mid-spring, the males in the band had their shirts off, and were milling around absently, playing video games, eating...Eager for the tour to be over. Several months straight touring really took it out of you.
...Especially when you found out that your bassist was pregnant, a week in.
Ashley was the whore of the band, sleeping with them all on tour to keep the men satified when they didn't have access to their significant other's. This meant that literally none of them knew who's baby it was, and therefore had all become incredibly protective over the bassist and his growing stomach.
Therefore, they all became alarmed when the heavily pregnant man said he had a problem.
"What's wrong? Is the baby okay? Are you hungry? Is it crushing your ribs again?" Jinxx fretted, sitting up. Ashley had been using him as a pillow. He wasn't

Ashley's voice cut through my thoughts, breaking the trance I'd been in. Blinking, I connected with the real world once again.
My stomach had a weird feeling in it- a sinking feeling that made me feel as if I was about to throw up, and there was a lump in my throat that wouldn't leave, no matter how many times I tried to make it go away.
Right as he opened his mouth, CC on his lips, I finally managed to swallow the lump, and spoke, "I-I...wow..."
Ashley snorted, but you could tell he was pissed off. Ashley always got this weird look in his eyes when he was angry, or annoyed. This glint that lit up his eyes in a menacing light, a disturbingly different spark than the kid that made his chocolate orbs glow when he was happy.
His thin, tattooed fingers had been holding up his shirt for the past ten minutes, while I gathered my thoughts, and my eyes flickered down to look at his sun kissed stomach.
At first glance, nothing was off. OUTLAW tattoo arching over his belly button, sma

I was wide awake, hand idly stroking the large belly I had developed, eight months into pregnancy.If You Love Me, Then Prove It - Andley3 years ago in Drama More Like This
Yes, pregnancy. I, Andy Biersack, had a bun in the oven. It was some sort of genetic anomaly; pregnant guys had been popping up across the US for a couple of years by now. That didn't stop my mom freaking out when I told her, though.
I heard creaking floorboards downstairs. Ah, so he finally decides to come home. By him I meant my fiance, Ashley Purdy. He and I had been together for two years, now.
I checked the alarm clock perched on my bed-side table, next to a glass of water and painkillers. It was 1AM, earlier than usual.

I gasped.When You Can't Sleep At Night -Bridecest2 years ago in Romance More Like This
"Yes, Ashy?" he said, sweetly, squeezing slightly which made me whimper.
What was going on?
"Payback, Ashy," Andy said, as though reading my mind. Before I could comprehend what was going on, another hand had snaked it's way to my ass. Shivering at the coldness, I pressed my legs tightly together, trying to stop the exploring fingers which prodded my hole.
"S-stop..." I whispered, gasping as something penetrated me.
Jake climbed on top of me, kissing my lips before smirking. "No can do, Ashy, it's your turn to be bottom, there's a first for everything." His red lips kissed my face all over, as another finger pushed into me, scissoring, stretching.

Andy was slipping down the curly slide in his neighbourhood's only kiddie park, grinning widely as he did so. A small teddy was clutched tightly in the three year old's hand, and Andy was holding onto it for dear life. His mother had told him not to lose it, or get it dirty.
"Dat was fun!" Andy exclaimed, happily.
As the blond started toddling towards the side of the park, where his mom sat, talking to other adults, he tripped and fell over. The boy could not help it as a tear trickled out of his powder blue eyes. His teddy bear had landed a few inches in front of his outstreched hand; covered in sand.
"Are you OK?" Andy looked up to see a slightly older boy, with shiny black hair that looked like silk. The boy was looking at him with concerned, wide, honey-brown eyes.
"N-no," Andy sniffled. "My leg h-huwts a-an' my b-beawr- mommy said I c-couldn't get it d-diwty!" His voice broke on the last word. The boy'

Gingerly I swung a leg out of the car that we had arrived in, wincing as a camera light shone directly in my face. All the rest of the guys were ahead of me and I jogged to keep up with them.
Andy and Ashley were at the front of us, hand in hand, they waved and stopped for pictures, posing like the happy couple everyone presumed they were. Jake and CC were slightly behind them, chattering to each other about a new movie that had been released, which left me le midget to myself. I didn't mind to much, I liked keeping myself to myself hence why I didn't talk much during interviews.
We walked through the double doors where the awards would commence, all of us getting split up due to how many people there were. Jesus, I couldn't see any of the guys, I rose up on my tip-toes and I could just make out the top of Andy's head. Him

He's new, he doesn't know how much that affected us. He'll never notice the layer of hurt underneath CC's words like I did, how Sammi's face fell when he left. Jinxx just about punched a wall, and it was all Jake could do to stop CC from crying.
Andy turned his attention to the walls, which he studied closely. Probably trying to avoid talking for awhile. "You're an odd kid, Biersack." Even that was hard to say, my voice coming out strained. He winced when he heard that, and I don't blame him. When I'm pissed I make it known.

Team Fortress 2 unites with WETA for new Soldier gearAh, this is what those so-called Grockets were about. Valve has collaborated with WETA Workshop's Greg Broadmore on Dr. Grordbort's Victory Pack for Team Fortress 2. I rarely play as the Soldier, but space guns and mutton chops are quite the compelling argument. The pack introduces two weapons -- The Cow Mangler 5000 and The Righteous Bison -- both of which are seriously anti-Engineer. Plus, hats: Lord Cockswain's Pith Helmet and the aforementioned mutton chops (which also come bundled with a pipe. Rad.) The items can be obtained by way of loot drops, crafting, and the Mann Co. Store. There's also a brief comic for the obligatory backstory. Comments not appearing? Anti-virus apps like Avast or some browser extensions can cause this.

New Pokemon Dungeon game on 3DSFinally a good enough excuse to get a 3DS, I was gonna get it anyway for Pokemon BW2, so I can use my laser gun and shoot some Pokes in my room, however it seems like Pokemon massacre was the only thing fun and unique about getting a 3DS for BW2... Well problem solved! A new Pokemon game has just been announced for the 3DS, and its none other than the popular spinoff series POKEMON DUNGEON! This time the game has a long ass name, its called Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth, a total of 14 syllables! Lucky this is just a direct translation to the Japanese game, don't know if they will translate it to something simplier with the western release. The game in the trailer looks dope, with 3D character models instead of the sprite ones from previous games, it also features the Unova Pokes heavily meaning you will have a chance of using Oshawott, Snivvy and Tepig.. I will probably use Pikachu again, no matter how many resets it takes. Umm what else? Oh

I'm thrilled! GREAT SUCCESS!!!
Ulquihime: You Belong To MeHis lips were gentle upon my flesh, and that almost drove me to the brink of want and need. I don't know when he captured my lips with his, but I don't regret the cold feel of them against mine. The grip of his arm around my waist tightened, and soon enough I found myself flush against his chest and the white wall behind me. His grip never eased, and I don't know if I minded it or not. I can only feel as his tongue brushed gently against mine, caressing the roof of my mouth as our tongues danced. If I could see myself now, I would know that I was beat red, with my eyes sealed with a sensation I had never thought to feel once more.His free arm ran up my neck, caressing the moist skin with ease and familiarity. This wasn't the first time this man had done this to me, and I know it would not be the last. His lips skillfully lowered from mine, granting me a chance to inhale the air that I lacked and he sucked softly against the soft skin on my neck. I shivered in what I knew to be pleasur

A Wizard's Love Chapter 1Chapter 1: The WitchIt had been a week since Hikari stepped into his life once more. Since then he was surprised with how quickly she came with the perfect butter, good cornmeal, and a rare hibiscus from Toucan Island. He had no choice but to transform the witch back to normal since she did get the ingredients for the spell for him quickly.So that is what brought them out to the small house of the witch in Fugo Forest. He formed a symbol on the ground with the glowing neon-green potion he made with the ingredients. He motioned for Hikari to place to place the "frog" witch in the center of the symbol. He stood to the side kneeling down placing his right hand on the symbol letting his eyes drift shut. He began to mutter a spell under his breath as the symbol began to glow. Gray smoke surrounded the witch swirling around her as his muttering got faster and faster. A bright light shines from wi

A lot vs. Alot: 9 Grammatical Pitfalls
in physics, nuclear reaction in which the absorption of high-energy electromagnetic radiation (a gamma-ray photon) causes the absorbing nucleus to change to another species by ejecting a subatomic particle, such as a proton, neutron, or alpha particle. For example, magnesium-25, upon absorbing a photon of sufficient energy, emits a proton and becomes sodium-24. Photodisintegration differs from the nuclear reaction photofission, in which a nucleus, upon absorbing a photon, splits into two fragments of nearly equal mass

I'm currently looking for a Cloud PaaS that will allow me to scale an application to handle anything between 1 user and 10 Million+ users ... I've never worked on anything this big and the big question that I can't seem to get a clear answer for is that if you develop, let's say a standard application with a relational database and soap-webservices, will this application scale automatically when deployed on a Paas solution or do you still need to build the application with fall-over, redundancy and all those things in mind?
Let's say I deploy a Spring Hibernate application to Amazon EC2 and I create single instance of Ubuntu Server with Tomcat installed, will this application just scale indefinitely or do I need more Ubuntu instances? If more than one Ubuntu instance is needed, does Amazon take care of running the application over both instances or is this the developer's responsibility? What about database storage, can I install a database on EC2 that will scale as the database grow or do I need to use one of their APIs instead if I want it to scale indefinitely?
CloudFoundry allows you to build locally and just deploy straight to their PaaS, but since it's in beta, there's a limit on the amount of resources you can use and databases are limited to 128MB if I remember correctly, so this a no-go for now. Some have suggested installing CloudFoundry on Amazon EC2, how does it scale and how is the database layer handled then?
GAE (Google App Engine), will this allow me to just deploy an app and not have to worry about how it scales and implements redundancy? There appears to be some limitations one what you can and can't run on GAE and their price increase recently upset quite a large number of developers, is it really that expensive compared to other providers?
So basically, will it scale and what needs to be done to make it scale?

to be a bit bemused and annoyed by this?
(50 Posts)I've just come home from my best friend's house and I'm sitting here in a "can't believe that just happened" kind of way.
She has a 6yo DS, my DS is 3, nearly 4. It was her DS's birthday today.
On Friday he had a party, he said he wanted only school friends, so my DS didn't go. He was fine, we were fine, all ok.
BF and I were at playgroup this morning and she asked if we wanted to come round for tea tonight, we could see her DS on his birthday as we hadn't been at the party, watch a movie, have pizza and eat popcorn. Our other friend and 2 kids were coming too.
We all got there, had fun, kids played fine, then her DS asked if he could put the TV on. She said "yes, we can put the movie on", told us all what it was.
Then her DS said "no, I wanted it to be just family" so she said, "Oh sorry guys, we will just have some popcorn" and then when he had moved away "it is his birthday and as they get older you have to let them do what they want"
So we have come home, its now 6pm (not UK) and i have got to find something for dinner for DS (not a huge problem as have chucked stuff in oven) who is quite annoyed at not getting pizza and a movie at his friend's house.
AIBU? or is this just rude and pandering?
Very rude
Birthday or no birthday, my child would have been told what's what
i dont think you can blame the kid to much tbh. hes just turned 6, my ds1 likes to have movie nights just us, but i doubt he'd say what the little boy did if he'd have had friends there to.
his mother was in the wrong imo. she was being rude, not the boy. she should have pulled him to to the side and said
" you have invited friends over for pizza and a movie, it would be rude and upset them to send them away, so we will watch the movie and have pizza have some fun then maybe later tonight or tomorrow night we can watch a movie just us"
i agree she'll most prob have problems later on if she gives in and thinks the world revolves round her son.
I agree with Brady - yes the kid was rude and mean, but he is just a kid. The way the mother handled it was even ruder!
I remember trying something like that when I was little (brat), my mom ended up having tea with my 2 friends whilst I sulked! Served me right!
I entirely agree that it is the mother at fault, not the child.
When I say I have drifted away from friends in the past owing to the behaviour and attitude of their children, I really mean because of their ineffectual parenting.
I'm shocked, if I'd have done that as a child I would have been upstairs whilst everyone else had pizza and a film.
I am wondering if the boy has already said he wanted ot to be just family and for some reason the mum invited you.
In that case, while still rude, its not so unusual for the child to say that. 6 year olds have a habit of speaking what they are thinking.
its all down to the mother. She should have stepped in and spoke to him. Not pandered.
But it sounds like she panders to him whether its his birthday or not.
Looking back at the OP, although I think the boy was rude-I do feel a bit sorry for him if he was looking forward to pizza & a film with just his mum, dad & brother & then others had invited.
Mother sounds ridiculous-how did you not just laugh in her face?
What a shame. But it probably is going to get much worse if they don't pull him up on it at all.
I saw my other friend yesterday and she said "I bet DS was really upset, I can't believe she did that"
It turned out she didn't know about dinner until she got there but she was still shocked and said he is a little brat and that he is only going to get worse. She said she has never seen them discipline him, and that they made a decision a couple of months ago not to see them as a family unless they had to.
I feel better knowing its not just us.
We were all out as a huge group last night and I am sure the brats dad knew something was up as he is a lot more perceptive than his wife. DH is really good friends with him, so said he would say something if he brings it up.
I think the whole thing has really made me question our friendship, and that makes me really sad.
Has she apologised OP?
So would I.
Look - I have drifted away from friends in the past owing to the behaviour or attitude of their children.
It would be nice to be able to seperate the friendship from the motherhood (the most adult way to deal with it)...but when your child ends up being affected negatively because of it, it's then much much harder to suck up.
I would have been offended by this incident, just as you are - and believe me, I have a bloody thick skin. I'd think that anyone who would treat me and my child like that, on the say so of a six year old, was not a person I could view as an equal. Or a friend.
It's a small incident, but it tells you everything you need to know.
I'd be cooling things off, and if she enquired as to why, I would tell her. No big confrontation or anything just calmly telling it like it is.
After that she can do what she likes with it. She can wise up and make it better, or she can carry on parenting like a fool. And a rude fool at that.
The "Sorry - Jeremy doesn't want you now...goodbye!" routine would go down like a sack of shit with me.
Very rude child and mother. She will have a very spoilt brat very quickly if this sort of thing continues. The child has already learnt to seriously manipulate situations.
Something similar happened to me recently. We were all very shocked.
In your shoes I'd text her and say that your son was really upset being sent away from the planned birthday film and tea and ask her to consider his feelings in the future. She obviously didn't.
We've had concerns about her DS for a while (hope this isn't considered drip feeding). He bullies my DS sometimes and tells him to do things that would get him into trouble. DH can't bear him, and always keeps a close eye on him. He thinks this had nothing to do with wanting just his family and everything to do with being mean. I'm more annoyed because DH didn't want to acknowledge his birthday, and I made him saying he is only a child.
Since they moved out we generally don't see him as often, me and her meet 2 or 3 times a week with her younger DS and mine. I think if they suggest anything together as 2 families I will say no.
YANBU. Very rude of her.
It sounds like her DS rules the roost, tbh. The mind boggles about what kind of childcare professional she is like - I hope she doesn't look after other children at the same time as looking after her son
Agree with others that you should distance yourself a bit and maybe just see her without the children.
Bizarre behaviour.
I would avoid social arrangements with her in future tbh and just keep my distance. And I wouldn't be keen on the dcs playing together either if her ds behaves as you say.
Time to quietly move on without any drama or confrontation. It's not going to get better.
I'm sorry op I didn't see that.
How odd. Is she normally a push over where her kids are concerned?
Everlong I didn't say zilch, I made a comment about having to sort dinner for DS and left.
I'm not sure our other friend was expecting dinner now, she wasn't at Playgroup so don't know what she was told
rude rude rude rude rude
she is doing her ds NO favours either
Really? She honestly said you'd just have to have popcorn and you said zilch?
How rude.
My DS often comes out with stuff like this - he has autism and has very very little empathy. However he immediately gets told. I would never pander to him, I want him to grow up with some manners and social skills (even if they have to be painstakingly taught). Can't believe you were all invited round for pizza, film and popcorn and got sent home! Bet the other kids were disappointed. I'd have been fuming.
Get some new friends who aren't rued by the whimsy of an infant.
So let me set the scene in my mind...
You, your DH, your Ds, other friend and her 2 DCs had to get up off the sofa and fuck off home on the say so of a six year old?!
I wouldn't ever go back, just in case the 6 yr old chucked me out again.
I think so Floggingmolly.
No text or apology, not even from her DH who is usually more sensitive to these things.
Very disappointed
Incredibly rude, your poor child. Your birthday is not a day to disregard others.
I know when mines been let down like this he gets so upset. She should have stepped in for the sake of the other kids - especially after 2 let's down.

Generally, its bad practice to make sweeping generalizations because life on Earth is our only example of life anywhere. To presume just because of what we know on Earthand Earth is teeny, and no matter where you look on Earth, no matter under what rock you turn, theres life thereto presume that such fertile circumstances exist elsewhere in the universe may be a little strong until you realize how big the universe is. |

Welcome to "An Unofficial Homepage for 'The Lord of the Rings' by J.R.R. Tolkien"
Since 1998, the simple goal for this site, is to encourage readers of all ages to take a journey to Middle-earth.
To best achieve this goal, I feel the best use for this site, is to carefully research the currently available editions of Tolkien's works, as well as guides, essays, and other related educational material, sort them all out into the sections listed on the right, hopefully making it as easy as possible to find these books, so that people can experience the peerless masterworks of J.R.R. Tolkien.
"If you want to know the story, you can read the book."
~ Sir Ian McKellen, "The Actors Studio"
If you have yet to read one of Tolkien's books, then I invite you to order a copy of Ballantine's popular Boxed 'Paperback' Collection of "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings." You will join millions of people, from all over the world, who have been changed forever by taking their first journey to Middle-earth.
Those who have already made the journey to Middle-earth, and hunger for more, you will enjoy reading "The Silmarillion", Tolkien's epic history of the First Age of Middle-earth, and "The Children of Húrin", the first complete book by Tolkien since the 1977 posthumous release of "The Silmarillion."
You can also order 'ebook' editions of "The Hobbit", "The Lord of the Rings", "The Silmarillion", "The Children of Húrin", "The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún", "The Fall of Arthur", "Beowulf: A Translation and Commentary", as well as many of J.R.R. Tolkien's other works.
These digital editions can be read on personal computers, smartphones, or tablets, but I really feel they are best read on dedicated devices like series of Amazon's Kindle ebook readers.
Works by J.R.R. TolkienThese are the two books Tolkien is primarily known for.
Works by J.R.R. Tolkien, Edited by Christopher TolkienOutside of "The Silmarillion," these works are not as well known to the general public as the two works listed above. Though the material was written by Tolkien, these works were published after Tolkien's death in 1973, and were edited by his son and literary heir, Christopher Tolkien.
"The History of Middle-earth"This highly-acclaimed series of books by Tolkien's son Christopher, provide an invaluable record that offers a great deal of insight into Tolkien's creative genius, his thoughts and feelings about his own work, and the evolution of his grand design for the creation of a whole new world. Tolkien is known the world over for his unique literary creation, exemplified in "The Hobbit," "The Lord of the Rings," and "The Silmarillion." What is less well known, is that he also produced a vast amount of further material that greatly expands upon the rich mythology, numerous stories, and stirring legends of Middle-earth, and also brings into greater detail, the long years of war between the Elves and the first Dark Lord, Morgoth, and his terrifying lieutenant, Sauron. It was to this enormous task of literary construction that Tolkien's youngest son and literary heir, Christopher, applied himself to produce the monumental and endlessly fascinating series of twelve books, known collectively as "The History of Middle-earth."
Other Works by J.R.R. TolkienOutside of the works listed above, Tolkien also wrote a collection of outstanding short stories and essays, many of which are in print, and are detailed below.
Atlases, Guides, EssaysThe depth and intricacy of Tolkien's books makes it possible for these amazingly detailed maps of Arda and Middle-earth, informative illustrated and literary guides that no one exploring Middle-earth should be without, and detailed examinations of the finer points of Tolkien's work, and its influence on literature, art, religion, and the world in general.

News, Reviews, Updates"The Lord of the Rings: Sixtieth Anniversary Edition"A beautiful new single-volume edition of Tolkien's epic masterwork. Fully illustrated throughout in watercolor by the acclaimed and award-winning artist, Alan Lee, and housed in a special transparent slipcase. Since "The Lord of the Rings" was first published in 1954, it has been a book people have treasured. Steeped in unrivalled magic and otherworldliness, its sweeping fantasy has touched the hearts of young and old alike. Well over 100 million copies of its many editions have been sold around the world, and occasional collectors' editions become prized and valuable items of publishing. With the epic trilogy now an acclaimed, award-winning and billion-dollar success, images of the characters and landscapes have become iconic to a whole new generation of readers. Much of the look of these movies is based on Alan Lee's paintings, giving this sumptuous new edition of Tolkien's great work new relevance for the ever-growing number of fans. This new edition includes all 50 of Alan Lee's beautiful watercolor paintings that have been newly scanned by the artist himself, together with his stunning frontispiece painting that appears in full, for the very first time, as a three-page foldout sheet. The text has been reset using the definitive fiftieth anniversary text and is printed on high-quality paper, and this is accompanied by Tolkien's own maps, which are printed in red and black as endpapers. The unjacketed book features illustrated boards and includes a silk ribbon marker, and is housed in a special transparent slipcase; together with Alan's beautiful paintings, this new presentation of this landmark work provides the reader with the ultimate edition with which to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of its first publication.
"Beowulf: A Translation and Commentary"The translation of Beowulf by J.R.R. Tolkien was an early work, very distinctive in its mode, completed in 1926: he returned to it later to make hasty corrections, but seems never to have considered its publication. This edition is twofold, for there exists an illuminating commentary on the text of the poem by the translator himself, in the written form of a series of lectures given at Oxford in the 1930s; and from these lectures a substantial selection has been made, to form also a commentary on the translation in this book. From his creative attention to detail in these lectures there arises a sense of the immediacy and clarity of his vision. It is as if he entered into the imagined past: standing beside Beowulf and his men shaking out their mail-shirts as they beached their ship on the coast of Denmark, listening to the rising anger of Beowulf at the taunting of Unferth, or looking up in amazement at Grendel's terrible hand set under the roof of Heorot. But the commentary in this book includes also much from those lectures in which, while always anchored in the text, he expressed his wider perceptions. He looks closely at the dragon that would slay Beowulf "snuffling in baffled rage and injured greed when he discovers the theft of the cup"; but he rebuts the notion that this is "a mere treasure story", "just another dragon tale". He turns to the lines that tell of the burying of the golden things long ago, and observes that it is "the feeling for the treasure itself, this sad history" that raises it to another level. "The whole thing is sombre, tragic, sinister, curiously real. The ?treasure' is not just some lucky wealth that will enable the finder to have a good time, or marry the princess. It is laden with history, leading back into the dark heathen ages beyond the memory of song, but not beyond the reach of imagination." Sellic Spell, a "marvellous tale", is a story written by Tolkien suggesting what might have been the form and style of an Old English folk-tale of Beowulf, in which there was no association with the "historical legends" of the Northern kingdoms.

If one does a little digging you can find the truth on swine flu. Check out the numbers of it on the cdc's website and one can see that the deaths from swine flue are less than 1% of the yearly deaths from regular influenza. At least last time I checked on it 6 or so weeks ago it was less than 1%. It's mostly propoganda. If the media put as much attention on deaths from regular influenza it may amaze most people. Or even deaths from prescribed medications. In a single year more people die from medication than have died in WWI, WWII, Korean war, Iraq War, and three others I can't recall at the moment. That's only in a single year too. My uncle was prescribed antibiotics for a nasal infection and it destroyed his liver. He nearly died from it. I mean he was a skeleton walking. Walking death. It was scary to watch. Luckily they figured out he was being poisoned from the antibiotics and he did a few homeopathic remedies too. He's back to life now, but you can still see the toll it took on his body. Don't accept the fear mongering being spread by media. There are simple cures to swine flu. Or even any influenza or chronic ailment. And they are simple remedies too. Something that ultimately cannot be put into a pill or shot and line the pockets of pharmacopia. Both my grandparents took their medications and such while they got the flu. But they didn't wanna touch my simple remedies. They chose to take their pills and such. They were sick for several weeks, until it finally passed. I never got sick. For simple remedies check out curezone.com Look for the acv, honey, mix. Or colloidal silver. Both easy to make. If one really wants some other remedies for swine flu then I can find a link with a few good remedies in it. I just used home made colloidal silver when my grandparents and others around me were sick. It's said that when one has adequate trace minerals of silver in their body it's like having a secondary immune system. I can vouch for that statement. The trace minerals of silver are supposed to come from our foods raised in the field, but the practices of raising crops have drastically reduced the nutritional value of what we eat. |
It was a joke post.. |
oh. LOL:-P That's funny. I'm laughing at myself. I thought I was gonna be finding them cures and posting em so others wouldn't get sick. I thought one was serious about it. But in case anyone else comes to this post thinking about swine flu and have a fear of it. Please take what I said earlier to heart. Cus to stay healthy while others around you are sick is easy. It just takes a little knowledge and effort. I'm still laughing at myself. I almost deleted that post too, but I thought, "well people deserve to be healthy and they deserve to know how, so maybe it'll help someone.":D And post it I did. LOL |
Well I read it lol it was interesting! Thank you for the swine lesson:P |
Am I missing something? |
horseman and McikeyO are accounts that were made just to post absurdities, hence why they have been banned. |
Good I'm not alone, lol. I agree with totalfreedom. None of my children or my husband and I got the shot. Instead we have boosted or immune system and wash our hands a lot. |

I have ADR at Mana melrose Fantasmic package at 5:00 and Sci Fi at 12:45. I don't think it makes sense to keep both (2 big meals that close together). Which would you keep?
I personally love Sci-Fi. It has turned into a must-do every trip for me. But I've never been to mama melrose so I can't really give a good answer.
I personally would keep Mama Melrose. I love their food! Plus I like to eat a bigger meal at dinner than I do for lunch so I would want to keep the dinner reservation.
I have the same ressies as you. I booked Sci Fi at 11:00 for an early lunch. We like to go here for the atmosphere mostly. Perhaps I will just have a shake and appetizer. Then we have the MM Fatasmic package at 5:00 where we will eat a big dinner. I would keep your package since it is easier access to Fantasmic seating. Less of a hassle in my opinion to see the show.
YES! There is no requirement to order anything, really - shakes and apps would be more than fine. Personally we have never been to MM, but Sci Fi is a must-do each trip!
My DD and I usually order a burger and split it (because it's really enough food for us). She either gets a shake or shares one with my DH. It doesn't have to be a huge meal if you don't want it to be.
Could you move SciFi to 11? That's when we always go. They are just opening then, so no wait for a car. We just skip breakfast & have a burger. It's close to 11:30 before we actually start eating, so it works great for us. Sent from Tracey's iPhone using DISBoards
We usually do 50's Prime Time Cafe, but this last trip we did Sci-Fi and really enjoyed it. It was nice and quiet after a day dealing with crowds. We enjoyed it so much, that we added another visit to Sci-Fi into our trip while there. It was a nice change to sit in the dark and watch old movie clips/trailers. When we were there, the parks were mobbed but the restaurant was very quiet - no noise issues for us.
I would keep Mama melrose and its the fantasmic package and you get a starter extra too However Ive heard the wait here is usually long-for us it was nearly an hour. We were warned though, so it didnt worry us. I would do as others suggest, still visit sci fi but just get a drink and an app or even split a burger.
I agree. The wait at Mama Melrose was very long for us as well and the food was just ok. As part of the fantastic it makes sense to do that and then just get a few items at Sci fi.
Good choice! We LOVE scifi! Been many times and never had a bad meal! I love how quiet it is too. Very rare in Disney. Lol.

Wait times for Universal Studios FloridaUniversal Orlando: What are the relative wait times for each attraction, versus the others in the park? From Robert Niles
Thanks for your help on this project. We've done the four Disney World theme parks and Universal's Islands of Adventure. Here's the last park I'm doing this for (for now, at least) - Universal Studios Florida.Posted November 15, 2011 at 12:15 PM Remember, we're looking for average wait times relative to the other rides and shows in the park. For show with assigned start times, we're comparing the time you need to arrive early in order to get seats for your whole party versus the average wait time for other rides in the park.

From i3Detroit
Revision as of 21:17, 29 November 2013 by Djscholl (Talk | contribs) (Updated ownership and dust collection information)
Under no circumstances should non-natural materials be used on the jointer. This includes; masonite, particle board, or various other man-made materials. Using these on the jointer will dull it very quickly. |
Remember to always; clean up and return the equipment to a fully functional, safe state before you leave. This includes returning any safety mechanisms to fully working order. |
A jointer is used to create a straight surface on a wooden board.
Basic Info
- Ownership: i3 Detroit
- Location: The jointer should be stored in the Wood Shop. It is on a wheeled base so it can be rolled out to provide clearance for working with long boards.
- What it looks like:
Manufacturer Information
- Make/Model: Chiu Ting WJT-150 (6 inch jointer)
- Part Number: S/N 4932
- Wikipedia has an excellent article on the Jointer.
- An online video that discusses jointer table/cutter alignment
- To prevent nicks on the blades, please check your board carefully and remove nails, screws, and any other metal bits.
- Work with pure wood only, please! Masonite, for example, will quickly dull the blades. Even plywood, particleboard, MDF, and the like will shorten the blade life because of the glue content.
Connect the Dust Collection
Connect the flexible hose from the big dust collector to the dust collection port on the left side of the base cabinet. Disconnect after use.
Set the cutting depth
The depth adjustment ...
Turn it On
The power switch is located on the front of the base.
Turn it Off
The power switch is located on the front of the base.
Authorized Users and Trainers
No equipment access set up. See User:pajamapuma or Equipment Access Project for help.
Other References
not specified
Two critical adjustments need to be maintained on the jointer. The infeed and outfeed tables need to be parallel to within 0.001 in. or so, and the blades need to be 0.001 in. higher than the outfeed table.
