Write a ReviewAdorable light but colors are deceiving!
By Robin J. from Staten island, NY on Nov 11, 2010
This light is perfect for my newborn's room. It is very sweet and pretty but be aware that all of the outside butterflies are blue and not purple as they seem in the pictures (the butterflies in the middle are purple).

3000sq feet??? How big is that boat??? My Spinnaker is only 1560 Sq feet. Is that a maxi?? That boat must be at least 60'.
I?m happy you understood that bigger sail does not necessarily mean faster....sometimes means less heel (altough boats like mine are designed to be efficient
even when heeled) and less heel means faster...we normally do not reef, unless its necessary, so we have other "tricks" to get around!!
Another thing, next time you're "riding the wave", go on the stern and look at the water as it flies from under the stern, it comes out straight and flat!!!! look at the wake....there is almost no wake too!!.
If you can (I love to do that), climb on the boom, lean against the sail and look forward and backwards....I can't explain it either....

a guy like this would be taken based upon the resume below. 2005 Season: All-American Dream Team selection by The NFL Draft Report...Rated the best right tackle in college by The Poor Man's Guide to the NFL Draft...All-Pac 10 Conference first-team selection...Recipient of the Morris Trophy, given to the outstanding offensive and defensive lineman in the Pacific-10 Conference. What makes the award unique is the selection procedure, which has the starting offensive lineman in the Conference voting for the defensive winner and vice versa. Started eleven games, sitting out vs. Washington State with a concussion...Registered 38 knockdowns and had 19 touchdown-resulting blocks for an offense that averaged 427.9 yards...Paved the way for a running attacked that averaged 235.2 yards, ranking ninth in the nation...Was the main reason the team featured two 1,000-yard rushers in Marshawn Lynch(1,281) and Justin Forsett(1,028)...Evidence of his dominance is the fact that opposing defensive ends managed a total of twelve tackles with one stop for a loss, no sacks and no pressures in ten starting assignments...Did not allow an opponent to register any statistics in five contests O'Callaghan-5th round. Amazing. We really lucked out again.
In fact, I'd add to that resume a huge chunk of the credit for J.J. Arrington's success in 2004. By all accounts he was the best run-blocking RT in the NCAA over that two-year span. But to be fair we should also add to the resume a second concussion and surgeries on both shouders, which is why he dropped to the 5th. If he's healthy, he's a steal.
Strangely though, even with those injuries, I believe he only missed one game. I always wanted us to get a big moose tackle on our O-line (no offense to Light), but at 6-7 330lbs, this guy is all that and more.
The O'C is like Billy Bob from that movie Varsity Blues. He's huge and effective when healthy, but got a little dinged up in college so most NFL teams stayed away. Our goal line offense will be POTENT with him on the line this year.

Canon PowerShot SD850 IS Digital ELPH (IXUS 950 IS) Concise Review
Review based on a production Canon Digital IXUS 950 IS (SD850 IS)
The SD850 IS (IXUS 950 IS in Europe) was first announced in May 2007 as a replacement for the Powershot SD700 IS. It constitutes only a relatively subtle upgrade. Visually the SD850 is virtually indistinguishable from the older model (only the color of the camera back has changed, from black to gray), and there are only a handful of modifications to the specification of the camera. Most notably the sensor now records 8MP images instead of 6 and the resolution of the 2.5" screen has been increased to 230,000 pixels. The 'digital heart' beating in the SD850 is now the latest generation of Canon's imaging processor, the DIGIC III. With the new processor there come a couple of new features too: Face Detection and the useful Auto ISO shift option.
The long standing tradition of the very successful series of IXUS/ELPH cameras started in 1996 when the first APS (Advanced Photo System) model was introduced. Every new generation got its innovations and found its followers but has the IXUS/ELPH series finally matured to perfection? Let's find out in our review, starting, as ever, with the headline features:
- 8.0 million effective pixels
- 4x (35-140mm equiv.) zoom
- ISO 1600 and optical IS for flash-free indoor shooting
- Canon's DIGIC III image processor, iSAPS, 9-point AiAF and Face Detection
- Wide viewing angle 2.5" LCD screen (230,000 pixels)
- 16 shooting modes
- My Colors photo effects
- Widescreen (16:9) stills recording
- 30fps VGA movies with time lapse mode
Note: Some sections of text in this review are taken directly from the Canon SD 700 IS review as in many respects the cameras are functionally identical. All test images are from the SD850 IS.

Can anyone help me understand why the print is posted vibrant/saturated with color, then when I post it for iphone, it completely desaturates the image??!?!
I think it's to emulate the look of the finished product, same thing happens at redbubble and zazzle.

A good hearty meal for not many points! The vegetable puree was a little thick, so I did not find that it needed 45 minutes at 425. Rather I did 40 at 350 and it wa heated through. I added some crushed red pepper to the puree to kick the heat up.
Very good and very filling. I added mushrooms and some Italian seasonings. Lasagna needs more than just salt and pepper! Will definitely be making this again. :)
I absolutely love this dish. The puree is so delicious; made it perfect. My whole family loved it. I added a pinch more salt for flavour and substituted 1 large zucchini and 2 medium squash for the eggplant.

I do not have a GPU, but still I experimentally installed nvidia-cuda-toolkit through the terminal like
sudo apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit.
nvcc command was working fine with sequential program after that. But ever since I restarted my laptop, I get the black screen. I tried to uninstall it like
sudo apt-get remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit
I then tried to purge the configuration since it did not work too.
sudo apt-get remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit
Finally I install aptitude and removed all the dependencies like
aptitude purge nvidia-cuda-toolkit
How would I fix this issue?
PS: I have a Windows 7 which is a dual OS and it is working fine.

So, I was googling a picture of Scarlett Johansson for the Battle of Pictures when something weird happened. Google asked me if I meant to be looking for pictures of Megan Fox. Now, this I found quite odd, as those two have very little in common. Aside from being "actresses" in Hollywood. They are hardly "alike". So, it got me to thinking, who would you guys rather spend an undisclosed timeline, alone, on a deserted island with?? All the food and booze you could possibly want will be provided, but you will need to build shelter and find a way to make a fire, keep it going, cook the supplies, keep supplies fresh between air drops, etc. Survival is yours for the making. You will have supplies airdropped in, possibly for a week, possibly for 10. You have no idea when you will be rescued, just that a planned rescue from the island of tropical expermients gone awry will someday happen. Who is your choice? Why? And please, show your work..... Yeah, there is going to be a poll and it could be public. I haven't decided yet.

Go scarlette
I think the Fox girl could handle the sun better. I would have to deafen myself, though; her voice just grates. I don't think those would be my top two picks, but certainly not a bad option. It would be fun to bury the Fox girl up to her nipples in the sand, horizontally of course.
Dead Bears, the only good kind.
Scarlett. Megan Fox has a permanent skank-face, and their bodies are about equal, so I'm gonna go with the one I don't have to ask to wear a paper bag.
I have to go Megan Fox but she would have to wear mittens, so I didn't have to look at her thumbs.
I've tried to think about this for a while so I could offer a well thought out and logical (to me) response. Ok, that works about as well a gun without a trigger. Here is what I got: Sans having to listen to either of them about themselves and their "thoughts": Megan wins hands down in a short-term-could-end-tomorrow strandedness. Eternity (*gulp* bad news) is Scarlett Jo! So, based on the poll I will have to go Fox. Maybe Scarlett can be on the ship that saves me?
From C3Shooter: Skullcrusher, you are evil, sick, demented, twisted- and my hero!
Scarlett Jo...There's just something about a woman who takes care for the hair!!
People get the government they deserve.

This looks so BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Must. Try. Stat!!!!!
Love the bike, and I am with you on using it to commute as much as possible.
Okay wait, it's not like some deep life mission where I save the world, although that would be nice, it's more of my every day life mission. It's been about 4 weeks since I sold my car and have been scooting around town on my bike. It's probably the best decision I've made in a while, besides the bruschetta bar (because that was epic). Here's the thing… people in LA are 100% freaked out when they see some chick riding along Santa Monica Blvd with a bright red helmet with white polka dots, hot pink sneakers, colorful lululemons and "whatsgabycooking.com" tote bag flailing behind her. I'm hoping this is going to be the start of a major trend (not necessarily the polka dot helmet, but the bike riding) because it's kind of the best thing ever. And not having to fight rush hour traffic is pretty much the best birthday present in the world. Moral of the story is, if you see me struggling up an incline, I'll happily accept a tow.
Okay, back to the Basil Parmesan Grilled Corn…
Recently corn has been piled high on all the tables at my local farmers market. It's hard to walk away without buying 100 ears of corn because it's so damn pretty! Usually I can't resist grabbing a few so I'm always on a quest to throw together new corn recipes. This Basil Parmesan Grilled Corn was inspired by one of my favorite street food finds, Elote! While I can't get behind brushing corn on the cob with mayo during bikini season, I can totally get away with brushing grilled corn with basil vinaigrette and a sprinkling of parmesan cheese. It's a side dish that's packed with flavor and you're for sure going to be obsessed.

The basil vinaigrette sounds delicious!! Parmesan cheese is my favorite – I feel like just a little bit gives so much flavor! A great combination with the corn!
Oh, I love grilled corn. We will be trying this soon.
Gorgeous image – pinned!
I love that you sold your car! I have had my car for 5 months and have put 1100 miles on it. And I have a kid who I need to drive around so without her, wayyy less. I love that pic of you on your bike
This corn sounds awesome! I love elote but this is definitely a lighter option.
Corn on the cob is one of my favorite things about summer and this recipe looks incredible. Great recipe!
Happy Blogging!
Happy Valley Chow
My family LOVES grilled corn. I will have to dry this. Parm is one of their favorite cheeses!!
Yum a great combination of flavors! Going to make this for the next family summer get together!
Yes! To everything in this post. I love that you sold your car and this corn just made my "to-make" list for this week.
I've never had corn like this, I can't wait to try it!
You crack me up. And I love this corn!!
Hooray for biking and grilled corn!
Hi Gaby,
I made this tonight subbing Cotija for the Parmesan and it was incredible!!!
Thanks for a delicious and memorable BBQ!

She really needs a nerf to her burst damage she has way to much at the moment compared to other assassins i know people will rage at me for it but its true
Compared to other Assassins? Everyone specializes in their own unique feature. Akali's is burst. Take that away. What do you get?
sure but it feels like her burst is way to high she should not be able to 100% to 0 you at level 6 thats just wrong
Irish Red Cap
Senior Member
I think they should scale back some of her ability to lifesteal and spellvamp from gunblade. No telling how many times I've played akali and jumped into a 1v4 and just tore face for a quadra since they would knock me to 25% everytime I popped outta shroud but 1 combo and I was back up full constantly
Sure Akali has high burst, but there are other champs with even higher burst. In comparison to them Akali doesn't even have that much burst. That's why she has shroud, so she can buy time to get off more rotations. One rotation from Akali won't burst anyone down from full hp, sorry. Feel to come back with a legitimate argument and some points to back up your claim. Some evidence would be nice as well. Till then stop crying that a champ exists that punishes you for making mistakes. /Thread.
If Akali needs a nerf due to her burst, than so doesn't (insert every ap carry here).
She has high burst damage? better nerf irelia

2000 Dodge Durango SLT 5.9 from North America
Why won't Dodge do the right thing?
Our Durango has recurring suspension issues. I drive almost exclusively around town, hauling only kids. Our control arms/bushings/hub bearings/spindle nuts, etc have gone out repeatedly. This causes worn tires & replacements of tires and alignments frequently. We have put a bunch of money into this, and now the lower control arm bushings are worn out AGAIN, so that it cannot be aligned and has worn out yet ANOTHER set of front tires.
The dealer this morning told me the bushings were unavailable separately - that I would have to buy two lower control arms at $587 each. I just got off the phone from an online auto parts dealer for hard to find parts. I bought the bushings for $21 each, the hub bearings, spindle nuts and all for just over $200. Dodge is not content to refuse to back up its product. Dodge also lies (unavailable, huh?) and rips off the consumer once they are stuck with a purchase.
General Comments:
The sad part is how much I love this car - great room, great drivability, quiet. Sigh. But the whole pouring money into it like a money pit thing is getting old. Here is a list of what else we have had REPEATED problems with:
Front door locks (electric)
Electric windows
Cam shaft sensor
Crank shaft sensor
Oxygen sensor.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

city, southern Henan sheng (province), east-central China. It is situated in the far south of the Henan plain, in the basin between the Dabie Mountains (south) and the Huai River (north). It has traditionally been on a cultural divide between the plain and the hilly districts to the south. It was also a natural route centre on the Shi River, a tributary of the Huai. The Shi has become partially passable for relatively large craft since the construction of the Nanwan Dam, which provides a constant flow of water. To the south the Mingwei Pass (now Pingjing Pass) leads over the Dabie Mountains, while two further passes-the Wusheng and the Jiuli-lead into Hubei province and the Han River valley.

So I currently have a first generation MacBook Pro that I bought as a recon from Apple. My company is doing well, and I've been offered the chance to upgrade--even to the 17" screen if I want. I originally bought the 15 as a compromise between portability and the extreme lack of cool (my own opinion) offered by a plastic case...something about the brushed metal look is just better. Anyway, I've wound up not traveling a lot with it, but I already have the protective sleeve and Wenger back pack for the 15...and originally I said I'd be happy with just replacing it with a new 15", but since I said that I've begun to waffle. I have no experience with a 17" laptop, as far as weight and size go, so I have nothing to measure it against. I'm not certain the extra couple of inches of screen size is worth it...or not. So I know we've got a couple of Mac guys here, and I was hoping maybe someone could offer some helpful opinions (you know, like...of course I want the 17. Duh, it's bigger, that means it's better, right! LOL).
That's tough call. I have the 15 inch power book. It is about 4 years old and I will definitely be upgrading in the next couple of months. The 17 inch looks bulky and cumbersome but on the other hand if I have the chance to upgrade, I probably would. From the 17 inch books I 've tried there isn't a real noticeable difference in weight. What's your gut feeling on this?
Gut feeling is that I want the biggest and best, especially if someone else is paying. LOL. But really, it's a question of portability I think. I got the 15 originally because everyone said it was easier to haul around.
Is there an Apple or Apple retailer store near you where you can try before you buy? If I don't have to pay for it I'd probably go with the 17" It has twice the L2 cache on the chip and twice the VRAM. But, it is big. I bought my first laptop in 2002 with a 12" iBook. I thought that was fine since it wasn't my main computer. But, I found that I had it on my lap while watching TV and I never touched the desktop anymore. Since then I've had a 15" Titanium Powerbook and currently a 15" MacBook Pro. I don't know if the extra pound and a half would make a difference on my lap but, other than that the 17" would be my choice.
I just bought the new black MacBook and like it a lot (writing on it now). Interestingly, I was originally going to get the MacBook Pro but the salesman talked me out of it, pointing out that the black MacBook essentially runs the same systems (even has a few advantages) except for specialized video capabilities I really didn't need. I was letting myself be seduced by the silver metal look and bigger screen, but it wasn't really worth the extra $800.
I'm glad you are happy with your Macbook. I considered one when I was looking for a new laptop a few years ago. But, 13" and only 64MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory for VRAM was a deal breaker for me.

Southern Utah University (SUU) Alumnus, Brian Cameron ('12, management; '13, MBA), believes that SUU has professors that are truly invested in their students.
Cameron says he has been helped by professors, post graduation, who have offered advice and counseled him on his career path.
"Absolutely all of my professors have impacted me, but none more than Ellen Treanor. She has been available to help me begin a career and push entrepreneurial endeavors," says Cameron.
Cameron recalls winning the best business competition two years in a row with two different innovative business concepts.
As a recently hired marketing manager, at NuSkin Enterprises, Cameron is in charge of marketing campaigns for their product lines and developing new engaging media.
Cameron says learning to speak Korean, helping to create one of the largest social groups at SUU and earning his MBA are among his accomplishments that he is most proud of.
"My favorite SUU memory is that of playing on the basketball team while being able to get an MBA and participate socially in the activities in Cedar City," said Cameron.
His interests and hobbies include sports, especially basketball and extreme sports, entrepreneurship, inventions, public speaking and world travel.
"I spend a lot of time thinking of new innovative products and doing things with friends such as boating, four-wheeling, and attending baseball games and events," says Cameron.
Cameron is from Draper, Utah. He is single and a member of the LDS church. He finds joy in taking people to do things they have never done before. Cameron has four sisters and parents that he loves very much.

In the last decades of the 20th century, the most singular poetic voice in Flanders was that of Leonard Nolens, whose work evolved from experimental to classical, as his earlier obsessive self-definition gave way to more serene reflections on relations with loved ones and others. His introverted diaries offer a sustained reflection on poetic creation. Nolens's high seriousness contrasts with the more playful and ironic postmodernism of slightly younger poets, such as Dirk van Bastelaere, Erik Spinoy, Peter Verhelst, and Marc Tritsmans. The ambivalence of language as an instrument to create new meanings and as a deceptive interpreter of the world, constitutes their central theme.
Other forms
Drama revived in the work of Arne Sierens, Jan Fabre, and Josse de Pauw; the latter two are also active in other art forms, the visual arts and dance (Fabre) and film (de Pauw), respectively. Lieve Joris writes outstanding travel literature, and Geert van Istendael excels at passionate, witty, self-deprecating essayistic and fictional prose.
In the history of French literature, that written by Belgian writers in French forms an important chapter. Even before Belgium achieved independence in 1830, many outstanding works had been written in French by writers of Flemish origin. They were responsible for some of the medieval chansons de geste and had a hand in writing the didactic, religious, and lyrical poetry, plays, and chronicles that issued from this period. The names of Jean Le Bel, Jean Froissart, Georges Chastellain, and Philippe de Commynes indicate the wealth of early historiography by Flemish writers, while Jean Lemaire de Belges was one of the great late medieval poets and rhetoricians (rhétoriqueurs).
The death of Margaret of Austria (1530) was followed by a period of literary sterility, which was prolonged until the end of the ancien régime by unstable economic conditions, the indifference to native culture of successive foreign governments, and the strong influence of 17th- and 18th-century French literature. Only a few writers are remembered, and notable among them is Charles-Joseph, prince de Ligne.
Between the end of the 18th century and 1880 attempts were made to create an original, native literature. This was particularly true of the period following the founding of the modern Belgian nation in 1830 under the rule of a French-speaking liberal bourgeoisie. In an era marked by a lack of outstanding writers, the exception was Charles de Coster, whose unconventional picaresque novel Légende … d'Ulenspiegel (1867; The Glorious Adventures of Tyl Ulenspiegel) has attained the status of an epic of Flanders. Meanwhile, the influential essayist Octave Pirmez looked forward to a new generation of writers.
The Jeune Belgique movement
Impetus for the long-awaited literary renaissance came from Max Waller, founder in 1881 of an influential review, La Jeune Belgique ("Young Belgium"), which suggested a national literary consciousness; in reality, however, the review was the vehicle of expression of individual writers dedicated to the idea of art for art's sake (see Aestheticism).
Of novelists early associated with the movement, Camille Lemonnier (Un Mâle, 1881; "A Male") was the leading Belgian exponent of Naturalism; a vibrant Flemish regionalism distinguished the work of Georges Eekhoud; and Eugène Demolder was influenced by art in his novels and stories. A later Jeune Belgique novelist was Georges Rodenbach, celebrator of silence and spirituality, whose Bruges-la-morte (1892; Eng. trans. Bruges-La-Morte) was the epitome of decadent fiction.
Stimulated by the Jeune Belgique movement was a group of poets much concerned with style and language. Among them were Grégoire Le Roy, a gifted lyrical Symbolist poet; Charles Van Lerberghe, who explored the potential of Symbolist verse; and Albert Mockel, founder of an influential Symbolist review, La Wallonie.
They were overshadowed, however, by three poets of international stature: Émile Verhaeren, Maurice Maeterlinck, and Max Elskamp. Verhaeren, whose poetry ranged in mood from sorrow to joy, from despair at rural depopulation to delight in the modern metropolis, extolled humanity's struggle toward social justice in such volumes as Les Villes tentaculaires (1895; "The Tentacular Cities"); Elskamp fused legendary themes and Antwerp folklore with a devout Catholicism; and Maeterlinck attempted to illuminate life's inner meaning.
Maeterlinck was also the outstanding dramatist of the period. In such plays as Monna Vanna (1902; Eng. trans. Monna Vanna), he created Symbolist poetic drama. In 1911 he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Edmond Picard, a playwright, novelist, and critic, founded the socially conscious review L'Art Moderne. Art and literary criticism flourished, and the period saw the beginning, in the work of Godefroid Kurth, of modern historiography; one of the outstanding historians was Henri Pirenne. This atmosphere of budding scholarship culminated in 1920 with the founding of the Belgian Académie Royale de Langue et de Littérature Françaises.
The modern period
Between World Wars I and II
A new generation of Belgians who wrote in French arose between World Wars I and II. Some were francophone Flemings: André Baillon, whose novels showed his keen yet compassionate observation of life, Roger Avermaete, and Michel Seuphor. Regionalism evolved in the short stories of Louis Delattre. Jean Tousseul was concerned with the suffering of people from humble backgrounds, as was Neel Doff, who wrote about her own experiences in such works as Keetje (1919). Other female writers were Marie Gevers, who showed strong attachment to rural roots, Madeleine Bourdouxhe (author of La Femme de Gilles, 1937; Eng. trans. La Femme de Gilles), and Madeleine Ley (Olivia, 1936), who was also a poet. A maverick spirit characterized the prose and verse of Jean de Boschère. Inspired initially by left-wing politics, Charles Plisnier wrote powerfully analytical novels, and with the publication of Faux Passeports (1937; Memoirs of a Secret Revolutionary), he became the first non-French winner of the Prix Goncourt. Political awareness also characterized Belgian Surrealist literature, which was divided into two groups: one centred in Brussels and including Paul Nougé, Marcel Lecomte, and Louis Scutenaire, and the other in the province of Hainaut, including Fernand Dumont, Achille Chavée, and the ex-miner Constant Malva. Franz Hellens, Plisnier, and others made up the "Groupe du lundi" (1936–39), named after their Monday meetings in Brussels. In 1937 this group issued a literary manifesto, rejecting Belgian regionalism and nationalism in favour of French literature. Jean Ray was a pioneer of fantastic literature in Belgium. Somewhat later, Georges Simenon imbued the detective story with exceptional psychological penetration. Another outstanding practitioner of the detective genre was Stanislas-André Steeman.
The poetry of this period was characterized by increased stylistic experiment and the development of fluent individual styles. The revolutionary poetic language of Henri Michaux was influenced by Surrealism, whereas Clément Pansaers and Paul Neuhuys were influenced by the nihilistic Dada movement. Chief exponents of an experimental use of words were Marcel Thiry, whose lyrical style was rooted in a candid realism; Géo Norge, who wrote idiosyncratic, warm-hearted verse; and Robert Goffin, who was open to cosmopolitan, especially American, influences. Another group of poets was headed by Odilon-Jean Périer, himself an original poet of unusual clarity who was the leading light of his generation.
Poetry is also laced through the dramas of Fernand Crommelynck, who wrote savage farces. Michel de Ghelderode, whose plays have been widely translated into English, astonished audiences with his love of anachronistic situations and puppetlike characters. The playwright Herman Closson reinterpreted historical events and characters.

Don't you just love summer weddings? One of my office mates has been busily planning her nuptials, which will take place later this month. Getting a glimpse of just some of the things that will make her day special has inspired me to see which accessories brides will be wearing this summer.
1. The summer issue of Martha Stewart magazine shows us a collection of pearls in unusual shapes, shades, and settings.
2. Brides Magazine features this out-of-the-ordinary wedding choker from Neiman Marcus made with pearls,crystals, and--get this--black leather!
3. I can almost hear my grandmother gushing over this gorgeous bracelet on TheKnot.com, featuring cotton and polyester crocheted loops, glass pearls and mother-of-pearl.
4. Look at these non-traditional beauties from Nordstrom. Simply stunning!
5. I love the accent on these gorgeous pearl strands--my favorite pick from Southern Bride magazine.
6. This vintage-style bracelet by Etsy artist, ShesAccessories, is made with white fresh water pearls and rhodium plated leaves with rhinestones.
7. The subtle details make these earrings in MadeByMore's Etsy shop oh-so-sweet.
8. If you're interested in making your own jewelry for that special day, download the Best of Stringing Wedding eBook, or check out Jean Campbell's Beaded Weddings, both available in the Interweave Store.
Happy crafting!
Jean Campbell is a craft author and editor whose specialty is beading and jewelry design. She was the founding editor of Beadwork magazine and has written and edited more than 12 beading books, most recently Getting Started Stringing Beads and the best-selling The Beaders Companion, which has sold more than 100,000 copies. Jean also is the principal and cofounder of Shiny Bright Objects, a jewelry-design party business, where she frequently hosts bridal parties and roadtests her designs on brides. She is a graduate of the Santa Monica College of Design, Art and Architecture and a Phi Beta Kappa, cum laude graduate of the University of Minnesota. She lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with her family and a whole lot of beads. Website: www.shinybrightobjects.com
If you are going to try to imitate "The Knot," you should be aware that it is done in TATTING, not crocheting. It is my favorite!
When planning a wedding, every detail can be important, especially when it comes to what the couple wears

I just saw the new episode of MLP:FiM, and it was awesome. Trixie is back and she wants revenge on Twilight, challenging her to a magic duel. After Twilight lost she is banished from Ponyville. Now with the help of Zecora, Twilight will defeat Trixie and save Ponyville from her rule.
I found this episode to be awesome. My favorite part is where Zecora teaches Twilight how to use her magic, kind of like how Yoda teaches Luke how to use the force. Trixie who was once a jerk in season 1 is now the villain of this episode. After she got rid of Twilight, she turned the main 6 (including poor Snips and Snails) into her slaves. Her new found power and corruption came from the Alicorn amulet. Now I have a question. Where did the amulet come from? Who made it? Was it created by an evil Alicorn? Did Discord created it? Nah Discord is to shitty to make something that awesome. I really want to know more about the amulet. I just that the writers ignore it kind of like how they ignored the Gates of Tartarus (BTW I am still waiting for an episode on that!)
All in all, I enjoyed the episode, it is one of the best. BTW evil Trixie reminded me of Evil Lyn from the He-Man remake. Well they were voiced by the same voice actress so I think it was intentional. I also hope that the Alicorn amulet returns.
Also, did anyone notice Lyra drinking a cup of soda?

Six-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin has won a loyal following for her inspiring historical fiction. In Wonderland Creek, young Chicago-area librarian Alice Grace Ripley is left heartbroken when her fiancé breaks up with her just as the Great Depression forces her out of a job. To escape the local gossip, Alice volunteers to deliver donated books to a library in rural Kentucky. There she discovers that God still has a plan for her after all.
©2011 Lynn Austin (P)2012 Recorded Books, LLC
I enjoy reading reviews & listening to audio books
"Depression Era Kentucky as a Librarian"
This is a different sort of Lynn Austin book than the others I have read. It clearly fits into the "inspirational" category with many references to prayer, God, and faith. It is a very long story (over 15 hours) that plods forward as a shallow, over protected outsider makes a new life for herself during a visit to poverty stricken rural Kentucky. The story is not a neat and tidy one. There are many loose ends and miraculous twists and turns. I enjoyed the book very much over all. I thought Kate Forbes did a great job narrating the different voices. At times I thought the book rambled on a bit too long-- but at the same time I kept on listening with great interest. It was a positive story and worth a listen.
Lynn Austin did it again. I love reading her books because she does such a great job of researching her material. Her stories inspire me to review different parts of my faith and to grow. I also feel like I have received a valuable history lesson when I read one. I probably would never have heard of the depression-era traveling library services in Kentucky if I hadn't read this book. Kate Forbes did an excellent job of making the characters come to life.
"Not very original-too much like 'Christy'"
I always enjoy listening to Lynn Austins books but this story line was just too much like Catherine Marshall's 'Christy' written over 50 years ago. 'Christy' is better because it is based on the life of Catherine's mother when she went into the Appalachian mountains to teach during the depression as a young woman of 18
Not at all. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't recently listened to 'Christy' because it has been years since I've read the book and probably wouldn't have recognized so many similarities.
I have listened to her before and she has grown on me. I think she does a great job performing Lynn Austin's books and would be hesitant to buy and of Austin's books if she wasn't narrating it.
Ummmm-it kinda has been made into a series (Christy) and I believe Kelly Martin was Christy and would do a fine job as Alice Ann.
I found the character of Lily to be annoying. She was a preachy and manipulative old woman who had an answer and Bible lesson ready for every question asked to her. She and God were so close she knew when it was in his will to lie, misrepresent the truth and judge people! (she warned Allie about Maggie right after the two had met-but later seemed to understand her pain and lack of faith) she was just TOO perfect and sinless. It just bugs me when any character, especially an older one, knows everything and has the correct answer for every situation and every situation turns out exactly as predicted. I won't give examples because that would spoil the book for some people and they might not see her as I do- she just got on my nerves.
Lady Iris
"I Loved This Book!"
This is the best book I have read (listen to) for a long time. It really touches the heart.
If you like a good story, you will like this book. If you like inspirational stories, you will like this book. And, if you like a story with believable characters, you will like this book.
"Should be called Wonderful Creek!"
An intriguing, heart warming, page turner
I believe the most memorable moments occur between Ally and Lilly. Lilly's insights and verbage are often touching and inspirational as well as practical and even humorous. I found myself wondering what she was going to say next. Her back story, once revealed, was filled with faith and hope and to me quite compelling.
(My mother's opinion.)
In my opinion the most memorable moments were when Ally found herself thrust into a different world. From finding herself having to be more domesticated than she was accustomed to, to dealing with the outdoor life out of a Kentucky backwoods woman, she tackled it with defiance, determination and courage. She was a character not soon to be forgotten.
I like the way Kate Forbes used different voice inflection for different characters.
The grass isn't always greener on the other side of the mountain.
I would recommend this book, to anyone. I love the writing of Lynn Austin. She has just the right combination of humor and drama.
(My Mother's opinion)
READ THIS BOOK!! You will be glad you did.
"A Matter of Taste"
Lynn Austin has always been a 5-star read/listen for me. If this had been my first experience with her work, and had it not been for an Amazon reviewer who encouraged readers to stick with this slow-starter, I would have given up listening.
As the story begins, the primary character , as one other reviewer put it, comes across "cliched." While some readers found the story amusing, I found it irritating. It wasn't until several hours in that I became at all engaged.
I remain a loyal reader/listener of Lynn Austin, but this one was just OK for me. I suspect it was intended to be humorous in some respects, but the humor was not to my taste.
If this is your first Lynn Austin, try some of her other titles. She truly is a master of her craft, whether or not this one hit the spot for you.
"Excellent book!"
My husband and I listened to this book together. We LOVED it! It was a great story and narrated very well.
We need more CLEAN and entertaining books like this!
"Wonderful! Didn't want it to end!!"
Lynn Austin has done it again. She has to be one of the greatest Christian author of our time. She makes her stories seem true and this book is no exception. I truly did not want this book to end. I hope there will be a sequel to Wonderland Creek. The characters are amazing!
Can you tell? I loved this book!
"Really good story!"
This was another great story by Lynn Austin. She is one of my favorite authors. Very heartwarming! Would definitely recommend!
"A quirky, fun read"
Better than most, because it IS Lynn Austin. It's quirky and lighthearted like "A Proper Pursuit", but doesn't handle the many issues with such grace...
Both. It was quite amusing having a protagonist talk about the unbelievability of a life situation that wouldn't have been believable in a book...
This book is a welcome addition to Austin's collection of well-done inspirational novels.
I am normally not a big kate Forbes fan, but her voice is actually well-suited to this one.
This is not Austin's best book, but is well worth the light read.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.


text: Hello, I can't build glut-3.7, but i don't know why, because there is no error messages. What i do: cd glut-3.7 cp linux/Glut.cf . ./mkmkfiles.imake cd lib/linux make The build process finishes without errors or something similar, but, as said in the README: "This should build the shared library 'libglut.so.3.7'" But i haven't it. The most similar is "libglut.a", but as the next instructions are: ln -s libglut.so.3.7 libglut.so.3 ln -s libglut.so.3.7 libglut.so i can't follow up Perhaps, the instructions says that before doing "make": ***Now, take the Makefile out of the archive and replace the old one.*** (when says this, is supposed that i'm in the directory lib/glut). I don't exactly understand this, so i've probed running "make" with the Makefile that appears when i enter in lib/linux, and with the Makefile.bak, that i suppose is the original but after running ./mkmkfiles.imake has changed. But the results are the same. Any idea? Thanks dienadel

They sank.
no DURR
No, really, that's what happened. Nobody posted and they sank to page 2.
Or, maybe there are too much non-meme related threads that are popping up ?
Segregation is needed
Already passed idea to Blubber. There will be a meme section and an off-topic section.
I'm betting that the "Off-topic" section will receive WAY more hits and have more threads than the "Meme" section once it gets made (if it gets made). It's just inevitable.
And it will be choked by n00bs for a few weeks. It will help, though.

At the Copenhagen climate talks Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the US could provide billions in aid to help poorer nations convert to clean technologies. But that's only if countries like China agree to monitoring of their climate change efforts.

In an effort to clear a major hurdle toward a new climate agreement in Copenhagen, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced today that the United States would take part in efforts to pull together long-term financing for developing countries to the tune of $100 billion a year by 2020.
The money would come from a combination of government-to-government aid, as well as from private-sector sources.
The US offer falls short of promising specific dollar amounts or what percentage of the tab Washington would be willing to pick up. And it comes with a pair of strings attached. US help will require "a strong accord in which all major economies stand behind meaningful mitigation actions and provide full transparency as to their implementation," Secretary Clinton said.
"Full transparency" appears to refer to countries like China and India, which have bristled at demands for independent monitoring as an attack on their sovereignty.
Despite the caveats, the offer sends a signal that the US is keen on reaching reaching what Ms. Clinton called a comprehensive, operational climate agreement here.
