Karl Lagerfeld to create fragrance that smells of books - Fashion - Life & Style. According to the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ), Lagerfeld - who is known for his love of books and says he stocks more than 300,000 of them in his famous personal library - is already working on the fragrance with his publisher of choice, Steidl, which distributes most of the designer's photography books.
FAZ reports that Paper Passion, which will be sold inside a hardcover book with the pages hollowed out to hold the flacon, will be developed with Berlin perfumer Geza Schön, who told the paper that "the fragrance will have a fatty note," probably along the lines of linoleum, and that he was taking his inspiration from the smell of printed and unprinted paper. For those who can't wait until the perfume comes out, there are several paper-inspired fragrances already on the market, including Demeter's Paperback, Zadig & Voltaire's Tome 1, or Hammam Bouquet by Penhaligons. Tinted Windows that Generate Electricity. Light power: A flexible, lightweight solar panel from Heliatek.
A startup in Germany has developed a new kind of solar panel made of small, organic molecules deposited on polyester films. The technology is similar to what's used for OLED displays for phones and flat-screen TVs. The panels are flexible, and far lighter than conventional solar panels, yet in some locations—particularly where it's hot or cloudy—they can generate just as much electricity as a conventional solar panel. Heliatek, based in Dresden, is funded by Bosch, BASF, and others, and has raised 28 million euros so far. Néo-luddites de tous les pays…

Microsoft Cracks List of Top Linux Contributors. The Linux Foundation has released its annual report on the top contributors to Linus Torvalds's open source operating system, and there's a new name on the list: Microsoft.
For years, Microsoft kept its distance from the open source movement, and at one point, CEO Steve Ballmer referred to Linux as a cancer, seeing the open source OS as a threat to Microsoft's Windows operating system and other proprietary tools built by the Redmond software giant. But in recent years, the company has come to realize that it needs the open source community on its side. And in some cases, Microsoft is actually contributing to high-profile open source projects, including Hadoop, Samba, and, yes, the grandaddy of the all: Linux.

And so it ends, with 115 deviations from February 1st, 2010 all the way down to today, my last.
I could do something really longwinded here, as is my style, or simply leave this and my thanks to those who have interacted with me over the last four years. It was an intersting journey and i've learned a lot. Now it's time to move on (hopefully from fan-fiction entirely, though my latest Zoro x Robin stint on Fanfiction.net is keeping me chained for the moment).
So i simply leave. The account will remain open, of course, and i'll have my eye on it periodically to maybe answer comments about older stories or something? Most of my hangout for the fetish is now going on at Hypnohub.

The NCBA suit, filed here in federal district court, has the support of the fledgling National Writers' Union, as well as independent booksellers from Detroit to Oklahoma City. If the booksellers get a favorable ruling, say antitrust experts like Earl Kintner, former chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, its legal precedent could send significant ripples, if not waves, of reform throughout the industry.
Cody's Books crouches on the corner of Telegraph Avenue and Haste Street in Berkeley, a stone's throw from People's Park and the University of California's Sproule Plaza. In Cody's front window is a tribute to the late beat poet, ''Kenneth Rexroth, 1906-1982.'' Across one wall of the glass-front bookstore, old graffiti still whisper in fading red spray paint: ''Free the SLA (Symbionese Liberation Army).''
Inside, a plaid blur moves through the stacks. It is Andy Ross, the proprietor, making his rounds. He wears tortoise-shell glasses, blue jeans, and a dark plaid shirt. He is amiable, intelligent, and restless to the point of being fidgety. He has owned Cody's since 1977, and is proud of his store. ''We hired a UC professor to give us an annotated list of books to develop our European History section,'' says Ross, striding into his favorite corner of the store. ''These don't sell real fast, but we think it's important to carry them. In a chain store all you'd find is John Reed's 'Ten Days that Shook the World' for six months, or until the movie (Warren Beatty's ''Reds'') fades from memory. . . .
''Here's our philosophy section with the complete works of Kierkegaard.'' He breezes into the next aisle. ''In the chains you may find (the writings of) Billy Graham, but you won't see Hegel, Hume, and Kant, the most important philosophers in the Western modern age.''

It took me awhile to write and edit, but I have finally gotten my content all together and have wrapped up writing most of my experiences at this year's FanimeCon 2011 in San Jose, Califorina. In this first of two segments that highlights my four days of wandering around, taking photos, and interviewing people for this feature, I will discuss what I saw at FanimeCon cosplay-wise, from the basic cosplayers to the elaborate cosplays that left people standing there in amazement. In addition, I have two of the interviews that I conducted for this feature, as well as some cosplay photos that I took during my travels around the San Jose Convention Center over the four-day duration of FanimeCon. I hope that you enjoy reading this feature as much as I did writing about my experiences.
This year, I was able to make the pilgrimage from my hometown of Chico, California down to San Jose for FanimeCon 2011, which ran from Thursday, May 27th until Monday, May 30th at the San Jose Convention Center in downtown San Jose. From the moment I first reached the Convention Center at roughly 11:30 AM Friday morning until I got on the 12:50 PM AMTRAK train back to Sacramento on Monday, I was amazed and thrilled to be surrounded by roughly 15,000 or more fellow anime/manga fans doing what they do best: partaking in four days of Con madness. I was surrounded by a horde of people, ranging from photographers to cosplayers to members of the media and everything in between as FanimeCon 2011 officially got underway at 2:00 PM Friday with the Opening Ceremonies. Armed with my 2009 Canon Rebel XSi D-SLR camera, a pair of 18-55mm and 55-250mm lenses, and two 8GB memory cards that could hold 1,350 images apiece, I set forth into the masses and began my 4-day adventure at FanimeCon 2011, taking cosplay images, conducting interviews, and helping my new friend (and fellow photographer) Sam Lau with his photoshoots outside of the Convention Center with dozens of cosplayers.
When I attended the opening day of FanimeCon 2010 last year (from 8 AM until 2:30 PM), I managed to walk around the Convention Center taking images of various cosplayers that were making the rounds of the area before I had to leave. This year, I decided to employ the same strategy that I had used for the 6 hours of the previous year, by making constant loops of the 1st floor, 2nd floor, and outside of the Convention Center, taking images of any cosplay that captured my attention or was worthy of being captured with my camera. This year, I began to notice after several hours that there were a ton of VOCALOID, One Piece, Black Butler, and various Final Fantasy cosplays (ranging from FFV all the way to FFXIII) at FanimeCon to behold, and they seemed to be the most popular series/franchises to cosplay as this year. I lost count of how many different cosplays from different series that I came across, but I am quite sure that it was quite a high number in the end. Some of the best cosplays that I came across were from the VOCALOID, Eureka 7, One Piece, Black Butler, Final Fantasy, Puella Magi Madoka★Magica, Code Geass, Street Fighter, Rozen Maiden, and other franchises that I could not name (not familiar with them)
In addition, the types of cosplay that I came across at FanimeCon were quite amazing, from the basic cosplays that new cosplayers or low-budget cosplayers donned for convention all the way to the elaborate, high budget cosplays that had photographers swarming them like flies, all trying to capture images of their amazing cosplay from whatever series/franchise it was from. There were dozens of scheduled cosplayer gatherings being held at FanimeCon, which allowed for a large number of cosplayers dressed as the characters of their favorite franchises to participate in mass photoshoots and to interact with each other under the leadership of the leader of their gathering. I managed to attend 5 gatherings (VOCALOID, Pokemon, K-ON!, Valve, and Black Butler) at FanimeCon this year, taking image of the large number of cosplayers that participated in each of their respective gatherings. One of the people that I managed to interview for my feature was the leader of the VOCALOID gathering that was held on Friday at 5:30 PM, and our brief interview is as follows:
Around 2 PM on Friday afternoon at FanimeCon 2011, I came across a Sucker Punch photoshoot that featured a Babydoll and other cosplays from the film. As one of the cosplayers posed with a rifle on a bike, the wind began to swirl quite strongly, sending one of the reflector screens that one photographer had set up flying. I grabbed onto it and put it back in place, holding it still until he was finished. After the shoot was over, he introduced himself to me as Sam Lau, a photographer from Toronto, Canada who was attending FanimeCon 2011 to take images for his profile on Cosplay.com. I decided that he was a neat guy to hang around with, so I asked if I could become his assistant/partner for the day. He agreed, and from that point on, I was assisting him with his photoshoots for the remaining three days of the convention. We took many images as a team, with me assisting him in his shots by holding/angling the light reflecting screen or holding the screen with a Pocket Wizard-enabled flash for additional lighting. While he packed up after he had finished, I would take my quick shots of the subject and then proceed off with Sam to find the next cosplayer to shoot. We spent the most time with a Sailor Mercury cosplayer (Sailor Moon), taking her images at the fountains at the Cesar Chavez Memorial Park and in the one fancy area of the hotel that Sam was staying at.
His images (which turned out much better, due to his impressive Nikon camera and incredible lenses), can be found on Cosplay.com under Baron Karza, his profile name.
Over the 4 days we worked together, we took images of at least 60 different cosplayers, most of which had some stunning outfits or amazing props to go with their cosplay. Below are some of the many cosplay photos that I took at FanimeCon 2011 this year. The rest (meaning the other 150 or so) can be found on my DeviantArt profile (which will be linked down below the images):
Overall, my experience at FanimeCon 2011 was a great one, for spending almost four days engulfed by all things anime/manga with over 15,000 people is nothing short of epic. I took roughly 500 images at FanimeCon, with around 280 of them turning out to be the best of the bunch, so those 280 or so are being uploaded onto my DeviantArt account (around 70% of them are loaded up as we speak). In part two of my feature on my trip to FanimeCon 2011, I will post the other three interviews that I managed to conduct, more cosplay images, photos from several of the gatherings, my Con pass, the FanimeCon 2011 guidebook, and show the band of religious protestors that show up and heckled the con attendees (which led to some funny moments with cosplayers mocking them, horsing around them until the cops showed up, and ended with a Jesus cosplayer walking in front of their group, arms spread wide and looking towards the heavens as the crowds cheered him on).

Cherries: Pearce played through pain barrier
STEVE Fletcher lavished praise on lionhearted Jason Pearce after revealing the Cherries skipper had played through the pain barrier to boost the club's play-off push. Ever present Pearce had not missed a minute of Cherries action this season prior to the epic semi-final, second leg clash at Huddersfield. His campaign ended in controversial fashion when he was dismissed for a tackle on Kevin Kilbane in extra-time. But Fletcher, Cherries' player-assistant manager, saluted Pearce's efforts and claimed others might have hobbled off with the injury the former Portsmouth trainee sustained at the Galpharm Stadium. Fletcher told the Echo: He got a big gash down his calf. It looked like someone had cut him open with a knife. But the measure of the man was proven because he didn't even bother with it. He didn't even take off his sock to have a look at it until we were back in the changing room. It was probably 10 times more than anybody else would need to come off the pitch but that is the character he is and why he is such a huge part of AFC Bournemouth. Fletcher added: He has been different class this season. He is a dream to work with on and off the pitch. For such a young lad to have such desire and professionalism at his age, it can only stand him in good stead for the future. I can't speak highly enough of him. The red card would have seen Pearce suspended for the Old Trafford play-off final but he is now likely to face a two-match ban at the start of next season.

Latest update : 2013-11-17
Setting up communication systems in the Philippines
Today on the net, reestablishing communications in the Philippines; a Washington Post columnist sparks controversy in the US; and a novel promotional video from the city of Lausanne, in Switzerland.
Setting up communication systems in the Philippines
One of the missions undertaken by the NGO "Telecoms without Borders" is to reestablish an Internet connection at the hospital in the city of Tacloban, the city worst hit by typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, so that medical teams can communicate with doctors on the ground.
The organization which is based in Pau, France, deploys teams to disaster stricken areas to restore telecommunications services, a vital tool in coordinating humanitarian relief efforts. And so they have set up emergency centers using satellite communications equipment that can be used by the Philippines government, UN agencies and humanitarian organizations working at the scene.
Telecoms without Borders is also working with local telecommunications companies, like Smart Communications, to set up free calling locations in the hardest hit areas left cut off from the rest of the world. A service that should help thousands of survivors contact their loved ones and recharge their mobile phones.
Telecoms operators in the Philippines are working with foreign groups to try and get mobile phone networks up and running in the most devastated areas. As was the case last year when the Philippines was hit by Typoon Bopha, the Vodafone foundation has deployed pop-up portable mobile networks to help get communication services back in action.
USA: Washington Post columnist sparks online controversy
Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen in under fire from American web users over a piece he penned on November 12. He wrote "People with conventional views must repress a gag reflex when considering the mayor-elect of New York – a white man married to a black woman and with two biracial children": comments that have sparked lively reaction online.
Thousands have taken to social networks to slam the article, accusing Richard Cohen of racism. Outraged web users are saying he has overstepped the mark and should be disciplined. Others like those who have signed this online petition, say the journalist should be fired immediately.
And whilst many have openly expressed their anger over the remarks made by the Washington Post columnist, posting fiery messages online, others have taken a more original route when voicing their outrage. Scores of interracial families have posted photos online, challenging Richard Cohen over his "gag reflex" comment…
Richard Cohen sprang to his own defense in an online interview given to the Huffington Post: he rejects the racism allegations made against him and says he was simply expressing the views of sections of US society, and this doesn't mean he agrees with them.
Now trending on social networks
Ethiopians and friends of Ethiopia have been posting under the #SomeoneTellSaudiArabia Twitter hashtag to condemn the Saudi Arabian authorities' treatment of illegal immigrants: a crackdown that descended into riots and violence in Riyadh last weekend, leaving at least three Ethiopian immigrants dead. Web users have since taken to social networks in their droves, slamming the methods used by Saudi police, and the use of force and violence against African workers in the Gulf Kingdom.
Internet Archive website appeals for donations
A fire at the Internet Archive headquarters in San Francisco last week destroyed digitization equipment, and so the organization, which is dedicated to building the most comprehensive Internet library possible is appealing for online donations, to help raise the 600,000 dollars the Internet Archive needs to resume activity.

UPDATED: Tuesday, April 9, 2013 - 8:10am
CNN Atlanta — The National Rifle Association is famous for its scorecard that gives lawmakers a letter grade based on their votes against gun restrictions.
Now, Mayors Against Illegal Guns--a group battling the NRA in the recent gun control debate--is using their opponent's tactic against them, creating their own grading system for lawmakers, some of them facing re-election next year.
Mark Glaze, director of the mayors group, which is co-chaired by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and includes more than 900 mayors, confirmed they're launching the grading system.
The story was first reported by The Washington Post.
"We're asked many times daily where people's elected representatives are on gun laws, and we intend to tell them, in detail," Glaze told CNN.
The group will spend $1 million on cable television ads in the Washington area and in 10 states.
According to the ratings system, the more often a lawmaker supports tougher gun legislation, the higher score they will receive.
With the NRA, the scoring works in the reverse.
The new campaign comes as the Senate is expected to begin debate over proposed gun legislation as early this week.
The most likely provision to pass includes an expansion of the background check system.
Bipartisan negotiations over the measure, however, may fall short of the proposal backed by President Barack Obama and many Democrats.
The provision would expand the system to cover transactions at gun shows and over the Internet, but would not require them for any other private sales, CNN's Dana Bash reported.
Many of the 12 targeted senators in the ad campaign are Republicans, with nearly half being Democrats from conservative-leaning states.
The list of lawmakers includes:
Saxby Chambliss, R-Georgia (A+ with NRA)
Dan Coats, R-Indiana (C+ with NRA)
Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana (A with NRA)
Jeff Flake, R-Arizona (A with NRA)
Kay Hagen, D-North Carolina (F with NRA)
Heidi Heitkamp, D-North Dakota (AQ* with NRA. As a freshman senator, she does not have a voting record yet)
Dean Heller, R-Nevada (A with NRA)
Johnny Isakson, R-Georgia (A with NRA)
Mary Landrieu, D-Louisiana (C with NRA)
Rob Portman, R-Ohio (A with NRA)
Mark Pryor, D-Arkansas (C- with NRA)
Pat Toomey, R-Pennsylvania (A with NRA)
Hagan, Landrieu, and Pryor each face re-election in 2014.
Chambliss, meanwhile, has announced he's not seeking another term.

Poorly designed downloader
Don't bother with this confusing download manager.
The Internet contains an abundance of entertaining and educational content in both audio and video formats, and sooner or later almost everyone finds themselves wanting to download such content for later use. Fortunately for all of us, many programs have cropped up in recent years to help us with this task. HiDownload is one such program; but, we're sorry to say, it's not nearly as user-friendly as some others we've encountered.
The program's interface is plain and doesn't offer a whole lot in the way of direction. Some of the features were pretty easy to figure out, but others confounded us. The online Help file isn't particularly well-written, and it was confusing at least as often as it was helpful. We were able to easily download an MPEG file, but other file types didn't come as easily. There are plenty of mentions throughout the interface and Help file about YouTube and FLV files, but our attempts at downloading and playing them were futile. There were a lot of features alluded to in HiDownload's interface that didn't make any obvious sense, and overall we found the program to be frustrating to use. It's entirely possible that HiDownload is perfectly functional, but why bother to find out when there are so many programs that do the same thing and are much easier to use?
HiDownload has a 30-day trial period. It installs and uninstalls without issues. We recommend this program with reservations.

Today I read an article about the American 'plus sized' supermodel, Crystal Renn, which was on about this series of photos she did in which she was photographed next to a normal supermodel in the same clothes. It was amazing how much better she looked than the other girl and it made me think.

No outfit pictures today, as I spent the whole day and last night round the BFs. It snowed last night as well; not much really but it's stuck to the ground all day and it's pretty slippery out there. The BF called in off work because he didn't really want to drive in and we spent the day playing the Xbox, eating toast and watching Futurama.

I phoned up Newport, and apparently all I need to do is send them my A-Levels then I'm sorted, and their reply is bumped up to Unconditional :D
University Stuff
I got a reply back from Newport, which to my surprise was Conditional (which sounds a bit pompous, but the lecturer pretty much assured me a space) but when I looked up the requirements it was that I should provide proof of my grades. Um, what? I thought that's what I did when I lugged all 20-odd of my certificates, right down to Communications, up to Wales so the women who sat opposite me could jot down what I had, which she did. But on further scrutiny the original interview letter said I need my certificates to be scanned, so maybe that's the reason for the conditional. I had a bit of a shock when I saw the C-word, let me tell you.
Outfit: Gingham Cute
outfit post
I love this dress! It's a really flattering shape, but it's strapless and I have no strapless bras so I have to cover up my shoulders with a cardigan.

WANTED: Jeans
I currently own 3 pairs of jeans, one of which I have to stretch so they are long enough for me and are also too big, which pretty much leaves me with 2 pairs of jeans, sharing a week between them. I am not the neatest person, so it is not the nicest thing discovering a patch of melted chocolate dropped down them on day 1 on day 4. Here are some jeans I'm considering:

Something comfy but cutesy today. I love this jumper because it's baggy and comfy but not too 80s.
Grey Top: Superdry, £25(?)
Rose Jumper: New Look, £25
Jeans: ASDA, £10
Slippers: Matalan
the internet,
Right now I'm really into Bioshock. As I've said previously I'm dressing up as a Splicer for Rag Day but I've also played (well, helped) the game through a couple times with my BF. Though at first glance it seems a very bland, generic violent game it's the story, rather than the gameplay, that makes it. I've always been interested in the 1920s-50s and Rapture, the city in Bioshock, has all these elements and more. My favourite part of it is the audio logs - I would go through and listen to the over and over again, the storytelling and voice acting is so good. I'm really looking forward to Bioshock 2 coming out, and there have been whispers about a film being made in the near future. I've been going through the Bioshock and Cult of Rapture websites looking at the screenshots and videos.
The Shorts-and-Tights Combination
In the past I've always been very against the shorts-and-tights trend. However, recently on other people's blogs I've noticed them worn as parts of very cute (and enviable) outfits and I've decided to re-evaluate my opinion. Short shorts with bare legs/tights with which you can see the top 'line' are still a no-no. However, cute shorts with thick woolly tights and boots are a yes.
Topshop, £28
Miss Selfridge, £28
Next, £28
New Look, £20
Outfit: Meow
outfit post
I wore something bright today because I felt a bit down about my (really gross and peeling) face. This outfit is also really comfy, good for lounging about in and doing nothing :3

If there were one activity you could pursue that would improve your cardiovascular condition and build muscle strength and stamina all while enjoying a peaceful, back-to-nature experience with little — if any — risk to your joints, would you try it? If so, learn to kayak.
Certainly one of the advantages of living in this area is easy access to kayaking, but kayaking means different things to different folks. For some, it is an intensely competitive sport; it has been featured in the Olympics under the aegis of the International Canoeing Federation since 1936. Competitive kayaking has various forms, including white water, flat water, surf ski, kayak polo, kayak sailing and more. The shortest race is 200 meters; the longest 42 kilometers — the same 26 miles as a marathon.
For others, kayaking is purely a recreational activity, an opportunity to get out on the water, alone or with friends. For all participants, it is a good workout. And if it isn't top of mind as a fitness modality, perhaps it deserves to be.
This knowledge comes from Petar Sibinkic, a personal trainer working at the Longboat Key Club and Resort. Sibinkic is a veteran of two Olympic games, Atlanta in 1996 and Sydney in 2000. In '96, he competed for Serbia, where he was born in 1976, and where he started to train when he was 7 years old.
In 2000, he was on the team from Bulgaria. Sibinkic did well, coming in fifth in the men's kayak Fours, 1,000 meters in Sydney.
"Kayaking is a kinetic chain of movement that is physiologically complicated and complex, yet simple to do," Sibinkic says. "It's an efficient cardiovascular conditioning modality, at the same time building muscle strength, endurance and sheer stamina. And you get to be in nature, to be out of doors, where peace and quiet energize the body. It is never boring, because you are always moving."
Paddling a kayak is a full-body workout for every part of the body except the legs. It works the chest, shoulders and core, all the muscles of the lower, middle and upper back, as well as the abdominals. The arms are driveshafts, transferring the power from the torso to the paddle. Competitive kayaking is a real calorie burner, consuming 800 to 1,400 calories per hour. Recreational paddling can burn 400 calories an hour and up, depending on the size of the person, intensity of workout, wind/water conditions, etc.
But there is one absolute prerequisite for would-be kayakers: You have to be able to swim. It takes agility to get in and out, but that can be taught. Kayaking is a Paralympic, as well as an Olympic sport. And, with the possible exception of a personal life preserver, you don't have to buy anything to get started; lessons and equipment are readily available locally.
Sibinkic came to the U.S. about three years ago; he won a permanent green card in the annual lottery. A graduate of the University of Belgrade, in Serbia, he says his degree translates literally to "sports technology training." Here, we call it exercise physiology. He and his wife, Nadia, and son, Mika, 4, ended up in Sarasota via a well-known route — his mother-in-law is here. The Sibinkics now have a second son, Luka, 2 months.
Sibinic has now joined the ranks of recreational paddlers — but they are a passionate bunch. Sarasotans Don and Polly Shiffner, for example, have nine kayaks — sit-on-tops and sit-insides, solos and tandems — for their various expeditions on slow rivers, bays and lakes. They have been kayaking for about a decade.
"I should have started doing it 30 years ago," Don Shiffner says.
Sarasota resident Bob Garner, who discovered the sport about 15 years ago, says that kayaking is "the hidden treasure of Sarasota."
Longboat Key resident Joel Fedder, a paddler for eight years, echoes that sentiment.
"Running, cross-country skiing and kayaking all have a similar singularity because you, the individual, are relating to the environment in a very special way," he says.
They do it for fun and fitness, but their experiences have much in common with Sibinkic's.
"In communication with nature so close to the water, you feel free," Sibinkic says.

Several activities a day for kids. Awesome pool. Very heated! Room clean, kitchen had all the nessesites. Right accross from whole foods store and town square mall. Also outlet mall across the street on the other side.
The pull out bed was very uncomfortable, you could feel the springs.
The ice machine. They should have one on each floor.
- took a long time verifying my advance booking with their system - lazy river under renovation - no free breakfast
I am a traveler from HK. When I checked in, I told the front to pay cash when I checkout. When I checked out, another front desk said the charge has been settled by the credit card. When I came back HK to review the credit card statement which indicated the charge was canceled and charged again. This unexplained action has costed me bank charge because my credit card is from HK. Very unhappy situation. Also no electric kettle in such big hotel!!!
Location, polite staff, spacious room
We paid $700 for 3 days but there wasn't cleaning within our stay!! Rooms need to be remodeled.
size of the room was great. Location was good.
Ask for a non smoking room and was given a smoking room. We could smell smoke the minute we came in. Not enough handicapped parking.
My room was wonderful. It was 900 ft.². It was the one bedroom. Extremely close to the freeway and many restaurants.
The kitchen, size of the 1bed apt. 2 TV, big bathtub internet is free and fast
Sheet scratchy and thin. Both of us did feel it. Affected our sleep. One soapbar for three sinks. Small kitchen table and no work desk.
Amenities were good, but we weren't there long enough to use them.
We requested a bottom floor, but we're given the 9th floor. Our room was on the opposite side of the hotel from the elevator. The problem being we had one lady using a walker and one with a cane. We were also changed a fee for the pool. It was winter.
Just the facility Free shuttle to strip
Staff are very unprofessional No customer service skills I called up front desk requesting for late checkout and they said the room is not available When I came to checkout they told me I was to stay longer as per the booking. I think the staff are lazy don't want to help out. If they would have checked the computer then they would have seen that I was checking out earlier and would have allowed me to stay later for checkout. Useless staff
I really liked the actual room. Once we made it to the room the stay was great. The pool and lazy river were well used by my kids. And the location of the resort was perfect. Just south of the main strip. Right next to Outlet stores. Plenty of places to eat nearby. Shuttles that take you to the strip.
I think my biggest gripe is the parking. They have "Loading Zones" which are usually full from overnight parkers. There are signs stating vehicles will be towed but its really not enforced. There is a parking structure but the hike from the room to the structure is far. They do have carts to load and transport luggage on but finding one is near impossible. I think people hoard them in their rooms for personal use.
It's was amazing, plan to come back in 2015, but this time we are planning for a 5 day stay.
The only thing I did not like is the late check in time of 4pm.
An excellent resort to relax. The location is just superb. It is away from The Strip so it is a very good place to relax during the day. With a pool, spa and lazy river - what more can you ask? There are good restaurants inside the resort and most importantly, the Premium Outlet is just about 5 minutes walk. The rooms and facilities are excellent. A free shuttle bus is available servicing The Strip. Definitely, a very good value for money.
...that our holiday is over and we have to leave Las Vegas. :(
I loved everything. The amenities were fantastic. The staff were very courteous,polite and helpful. Especially the shuttle driver Kevin and Mike. I can't wait for the spa to get a nail technician. Overall great home feel experience away from the strip.
Location and atmosphere. Laid back not gaming oriented, The staff were efficient and accessible. This was our second stay in the past three months.
pool and lazy river great accommodation relaxed and laid-back atmosphere really good shuttlebus service
no real dislikes
Comfortable rooms, friendly staff, away from the crowded strip but still conveniently located to shopping and restaurants and short drive into the main strip.
While we liked that parking was free, it's too bad that there isn't another parking structure closer to Tower 2.
when we arrived lady on the desk could not find our reservation and i sent it to her - than she charged price of the room and additional 100 usd deposit (that she promised to return in 3-5 working days - still did not return) from my debit card and at morning when we left hotel I found that hotel charged again full price of the room from a same card - it meen that I paid for hotel twice - I sent mail for manager but did not receive any answer - one week passed and they still dont return my money. I dont recommend this hotel for all travellers- I think they are too busy to avoid any mistake with bills and accounting and dont think about their clients at all
We loved the activities they offer each day- the lazy river and the pool. The activities staff were fantastic- the check in and concierge were less than helpful.
The rooms are old- and dark. The bedding is lumpy and awful. I didn't like the pictures hanging in the bathroom- there was "soft" porn on the wall. Give me a break. Also the bathrooms were totally dark- it just was too dark. Too far south of the strip.
The pool was awesome! It had something for everyone! It was heated, had a beach, and a hot tub that allowed my kids! The lazy river was a little chilly and a bit of a walk from the pool, ut we still enjoyed it! I just with the pool facilities were open a little later. The activity center was also a hit with my kids! The pool table, air hockey, and craft activities provided something to do in the slower times of our stay and it allowed mom and dad to relax too! Most hotels try to nickel and dime you for everything and here, everything was included! Loved that! The BBQ area was great too!
Not enough luggage carts and the key card security was overkill on every single door inside the resort.
Quiet place to unwind
Parking too far from the building

Everyone is going to have their own slightly different riding posture that works for them. But by and large its definitely grip with your legs.
Coming off of two spinal fractures i can honestly say im just now getting to where i can ride for more than an hour without having to stop and rest my back. The more you ride the better your body will get at it. As in most things, respect for the bike, some common sense, and a healthy dose of experience will solve most problems.

Try a bit of exercise, situps & pushups go a long way to help to build up your core strength. I had similar issues when I first got my R & as I only ride weekends started doing situps & pushups to compensate for lack of riding time.
Now up to 70 situps followed by 30 pushups 4 times a week (I'm 50 yo)

Wisconsin Covenant Program Is Ok.....For Now
High school seniors who signed the Wisconsin Covenant Pledge need to realize the program is not a victim of state budget cuts. Jamin Whitman, UW-La Crosse's new Wisconsin Covenant Coordinator, says the program is full steam ahead for the initial class who signed the covenant as eighth graders and entering college this fall.
She says it's important for high school seniors who signed the pledge four years ago to realize they must take action by April 1st. To be recognized as a Covenant Scholar and to receive grant money, students must submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and a Wisconsin Covenant Confirmation Form by April 1st. Approved scholars will receive at least $250 for each of the next four years, with potential for more depending on financial need.
While the program is set to expire under the governor's current budget proposal, Whitman says current eighth graders are still eligible, but they must sign the pledge by September 30th.
Whitman says along with providing financial aid, the Wisconsin Covenant program at UW-La Crosse will provide other assistance when the scholars arrive on campus. The services include:
• Referrals to appropriate campus resources
• Workshops on transitioning to college and overall success
• Financial literacy opportunities
• Community service experiences
• Social and cultural activities
• Communication with families.
Complete details on the program are at: wisconsincovenant.wi.gov
Treasurer: Be Done With My OfficeIn Wisconsin, you won't find long lists of people who have run for office with the intention of getting rid of that office. But that's what Kurt Schuller promised as he campaigned for the office of State Treasurer. And that's what he intends to do. Schuller's drafted a constitutional amendment that will cut his office and that of the Secretary of State. The constitutional amendment process will require two consecutive legislatures to agree before it heads to a statewide ballot. Schuller's confident the measure will pass because the time has passed since either office has duties that justify having constitutional officer status. Current Secretary of State Doug LaFollette is not as enthused about the proposal as Schuller.
Flooding of Biblical Proportions? Not QuiteYou can probably put those ark building plans on hold. At least for now. The National Weather Service is backing off its worst case scenario flooding forecasts for the Mississippi River at La Crosse for the time being. Flood stage at La Crosse is 12 feet. The weather service is predicting a crest of somewhere 13 and 14.5 feet in the first week of April. The almost near certainty of some sort of flooding keeps the Mississippi as well as the Black and Kickapoo Rivers in a flood warning.
City Council to Consider Contract Extensions Long union contract extensions in front of the La Crosse city council Thursday. A response to a new law governing collective bargaining for public workers in the state. City council member Marilyn Wigdahl says the extensions are the right thing to do. It will be her committee that's the first to vote on the contracts followed shortly after by the entire city council. Votes today are on revisions to a transit workers contract extension that's already been agreed on and a new two year contract extension for the city's largest union over which talks began last week.
Plenty Of Parking Over HereWill more signs get drivers to use the parking ramps in La Crosse?
The idea is being discussed, following a survey showing there are hundreds of empty spaces in the downtown ramps on the average weekday. Downtown Mainstreet director Tim Kabat says the city might need to consider putting electronic signs inside the ramps, to tell drivers how many open spaces are available at any given time. City leaders are talking about ways to get more people who work downtown to park in the ramps instead of on the street. |

Chocobo Farm
this wiki
White Mage: Life's refreshing breeze, blow in energy! Cure! | This article can be improved in areas such as following MoS Location page structure. Please refer to the Manual of Style or Editing Help to get started. |
The Chocobo Farm (チョコボファーム, Chokobofāmu?) is a recurring location in the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. It is home to a family of chocobo breeders, who raise chocobos for the chocobo racing.
Final Fantasy VIIEdit
Racing chocobos are bred here. The Summon Materia Choco/Mog can be obtained by talking to a bunch of chocobos in the pen outside the barn in Part 1. In Part 2, after starting the chocobo breeding sidequest, if one did not grab Choco/Mog, as soon as the player captures a chocobo it will be standing at the south end; after watching it dance it will give the Summon Materia.
The Chocobo Lure, a necessary Materia for catching chocobos, can be purchased from Choco Billy for 2,000 gil. Chole, Choco Billy's sister, assists Cloud by keeping notes of what the Chocobo Sage tells the player. She also gives a rough comparison of the resident chocobos' strengths.
After the events at Northern Cave in Part 2, the player can return to the Chocobo Farm and rent pens in the barn to breed chocobos. A second Chocobo Lure Materia may be found near the south entrance of the farm at this point. Though the player can raise chocobos while Tifa and Cid are party leaders, the player does not regain access to the Chocobo Square so participating with the player's chocobos in chocobo races for development is not possible. Despite this it is not strictly impossible to get a Gold Chocobo at this time, although one will have to manipulate the RNG to make the process quick.
In the PlayStation versions, a bug causes all chocobo selection screens to be unusable for players who mapped the to Cancel.
Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-Edit
The Chocobo Farm appears as a location in several missions. It serves no storyline purpose.
Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-Edit
A crew member on the Shera mentions she keeps a chocobo at the Chocobo Farm. She named it "Boco" and mentions it's a river chocobo, a reference to a breed of chocobo from the original Final Fantasy VII.
The Chocobo Farm is located in the Grasslands Area on the Eastern continent.

The background music that plays in the Chocobo Farm in Final Fantasy VII is "Farm Boy" (牧場の少年, Bokujō no Shōnen?), a track unique to the Chocobo Farm.

A good example i am looking for is the coloring style of the Xbox360 game MASS EFFECT. It has a grainy look, glow, good light sources, but can be dark when needed, .grrr, i am having trouble explaining all these contrasting looks...but if you google the screen shots i think it will make sense.
I am doing a lot of sci-fi stuff, so being able to do space is good too.
Okay, later
I need a colorist. Please spread this around to anyone you know or post in your journals. I would greatly appreciate the help.
---Before i go on, know that none of these stipulations is because of Ego or whatever. -----
I feel like i would be getting a lot more work done if i knew i had someone i could trust and work with that would be coloring my lines. While i love coloring, and it is part of my art, i tend to spend more time with it than the lines, and often get frustrated, and i think a lot doesn't get done because of that. And if it works out, the completed art will be all that much better.
What i can promise-
Publishing, and some money. Not everything will be published, but there will be publishing. I am currently working on a series that i didn't plan on having a colorist, but if it all works out....i might change that. But mainly this is for pinups and covers and things. whatever comes up. granted, the money would be coming from the publishers and such, so i am not sure on the rates. but probably don't expect all that much.
What i am looking for-
I serious, dedicated, and professional artist. Someone who would love to color my stuff, for fun and for work. a partner if you will.
Someone who i can completely trust where their coming from. Has to have a good sense of color schemes and be able to add depth and atmosphere. Basically someone who knows what they are doing and not just starting out. Not that if you are just starting out means you don't.
i am looking for someone who gets off on coloring, and gets excited about doing it. and is open to changes if need be and comments. Someone who if they think they are doing something right that i disagree with can explain it to me.
Knowing that changes with the work is not personal and is open to thoughts is a must.
Also know that i might add some elements to the finished work. little things, but i will be open about it.
What i tend to like-
I like colors like Simon Bisley's, but also Moebius. Grungy stuff, textured. i dig lots of colors, but i also like the desatured look. Do what you do though.
I know that thats all pretty specific, but i am shooting high. and straight. I apparently am picky.
I have never done this before so i dunno how it will turn out. but i hope well.
here are links to some sample images to work off of.
I hope the low res will work, but if you need the high res. Let me know.
There are no deadlines for this, but the sooner the better.
I will also post up the links here.
And their might be some immediate work if i find someone.
Thanks everybody.
