I'm using 750ml wine bottles to bottle five gallons of mead. These are brand new bottles I bought at my LHBS. My inclination was to sanitize them in iodophore, but I was told I could soak them for 20 minutes in a sodium metabisulfite solution that yields 75 ppm of sulfur dioxide, and that any residual droplets left in the bottles would also help to protect the mead from oxidation. Seems like a good enough reason to use metabisulfite instead of iodophore.
The Campden tablets I have are sodium metabisulfite by the way, not the potassium variety that I gather is preferred for adding to must, wine, or mead as a preservative and antimicrobial. These are .60 gram tablets too, and I've read some Campden tabs are .44 grams. According to the label, 75 ppm of SO2 is yielded by 1/2 tablet per gallon of water. So three tablets would yield 75 ppm SO2 in a six gallon bucket that I'll be using to sanitize my wine bottles.
Now here is where my confusion begins. In googling the uses of metabisulfite, I found that anywhere from 1 teaspoon per gallon of water to 2 ounces of sodium metabisulfite per gallon of water is recommended when using it as a sanitizer. IN the latter case, that is 56.7 grams or 94.5 campden tabs (.60 grams each) per gallon of water!!! That would be 14,175 PPM of SO2!
Now my real question is if 30 to 50 ppm of SO2 is enough to kill unwanted bacteria and wild yeasts in must, why would you need over 14k PPM of SO2 to sanitize equipment?
Reality is a crutch for people who can't cope with drugs. -Lily Tomlin
The first link is for sodium bisulfite and the second for sodium metabisulfite. Neither is for the potassium form. So it is NaHSO3 for the former and Na2S2O5 for the latter, so you are right they are different chemicals.
However, when combined with water, Na2S2O5 + H2O yields 2(NaHSO3). They are also different in molecular weight, 104 for the bisulfite and 190 for anhydrous metabisulfite. Since the metabisulfite in water yields two bisulfite molecules, 19 grams of the metabisulfite is equivalent to 20.8 grams of the sulfite. So for any measure of the bisulfite, you could substitute 91.3% by weight of metabisulfite. In practical terms for the quantities we are dealing with, this makes little difference and you can use either compound for the same purpose, but I'm glad you pointed it out as it hadn't really dawned on me.
These compounds are commonly used in winemaking to sanitize equipment, kill wild yeast and undesirable bacteria in must prior to fermentation, and to help preserve wines and guard against oxidation during aging, so why wouldn't they serve the same purposes in mead making?
Just a quick rant:
Now you have given me a headache, time for another homebrew.

[b]Richard Spacey's Current Cruise....?[/b]
What is the current cruise he's directing? And how long do they direct cruises until the contract is over? Please notify me, I would really appreciate going on another of his cruises. :oops: :D :wink:
You and me both Mr. Spacey is the best! What ship is he on???
Cruise Queen, are you a Spacey groupie :?:
Great :) We can be on the Richard Spacey watch team ;) ;)
i'm not sure which cruise he's directing.. so far i have collected no replies. If you find any information, please let me know :)
Better yet the youtube people might know that post all these video and wonderful comments about him!
I'm on a mission I'll get to the bottom of this! :D :wink:
Here more people part of the Spacey fan club!
Was on Freedom April 07 it was his first cruise on Freedom, he didn't skip a beat. This guy is awesome. talent like this is why I keep coming back to RCL.
I have been on 8 RC cruises. Richard was CD on cruise #4 on the Adventure. He was a riot!! And he was involved in every activity. He didn't send his staff to do them as other CD's have done. I only wish I could book a cruise and know he will be on it. He's worth the trip!
He was the best cruise director ever. What a funny guy :)
this guy is friggen funny!!!! Great dancing!!
that looked like too much fun! i loved the use of props!!
Richard Spacey must have had some theatre background.
I was on this cruise! He's quiteee hott.
And a great dancer.
He was hilarious.
Maybe I better change my cruise to the Freedom instead of Liberty!
Oh, yeah! That is right. And that should be by when :?: :?: Next Spring :?: :?: By then they may be out of fashion. I can't make any swimsuit faux pas. I have an image tp uphold and want to wear that Borat suit now! While it is still in style!!
Of, course I will still wear it for you but perhaps only in the cabin :shock:
Do you think he'll still be on the Freedom in August?
How long do they stay on for?
Freedom's rates for the summer are higher then Liberty maybe because Freedom has the best CD so the rates will be higher! :D 8) LOL
Now that I've heard who the top dog of cruise directors is on Royal Caribbean I'll have something new to stress over.
Six month contracts...
Back from Vacation end of April....
6 months from then is October...
We're on Freedom in November..
I was on the last Spacey cruise on Freedom in January. He's fantasic. The wife and I think they clone him because he's all over the ship at the same time. The last night they show his video, "A day in the life of a Cruise Director". Really funny stuff and a great Cruise Director. :D
I kinda like Allan Brooks ... on Freedom 2/3/08 cruise
Guess I'll have to catch this Spacey guy .... but gotta tell you .... this Allan Brooks is awesome! Besides, my daughter-in-law cracked up when I said 'He's Hot'!! Been married to my husband for almost 38 years and none of the kids I guess have ever heard me call another man 'Hot'!! But I gotta tell .... he is!!!
Re: I kinda like Allan Brooks ... on Freedom 2/3/08 cruise
We just got back ( 10/19/08 ) from a cruise on the Freedom of the seas and he was still there.
I know you are a big fan of Richard Spacey but my wife and I were on Liberty of the Seas in May of '08 and the DC was Alan Brooks. He is very good too. Ken Rus was very good too. He was on Mariner a couple years ago when we were on that ship.
Freedom Sept 6, 2009
Do you think Mr Spacey will be the CD for the Cruise on Sept 6 2009? I have heard nothing but good things about him and would love to be on one of his ships. The last cruise I went on the CD was horrible,we never saw him. :(
Re: Freedom Sept 6, 2009
CD's have the 6 month contract then sometimes get transfered to another ship. By next Sept. he can either be on his vacation or on another ship it is too early to tell. I hope Rich is there when you cruise and you get to experience cruising with the funniest CD out there. I also loved James Andrews also very funny. Alan Brooks is good.
Next CD for me will be Paul Rutter never had him but heard good things and bad things about him. :shock: :-?
Deb who was your last CD that was terrible? :-?
Since Andrews is going to Oasis I say Spacey should get Allure but that is after you have sailed with him on Freedom. :wink:
Spacey does have alot of fans they are everywhere! :wink: 8)

The Motorola T720i is a very nice flip phone. I've had a Nokia 3390, previously, with Cingular Wireless. The only problem I had with the Nokia was that the keypad was very easy to press, and I had waste on average 3 to 4 SMS messages, which is about $0.30. The phone is very light, it's about 3.5 oz.
Phone features: flip design, decent RF, good sound quality, 9-line 4,092 color LCD, Java enabled, WAP, Phone Book, Voice dialing, digital camera attachment, MIDI Ring Tones (16-instrument) and GSM - 1900MHz.
In the house, I get about anywhere from 1 to 4 signal strength, if you leave it for a long time, the signal goes up. I'm pretty happy with the phone, I love the MIDI Ring Tones, it sounds really nice, the bad thing about it is that it doesn't vibrate and ring at the same time. It vibrates 3 times, rings for 10 seconds, and vibrates 2 times. Overall, this phone is very easy to use, the screen and buttons are EXCELLENT at night, all illuminated.
I highly recommend this phone, and Motorola has given me a very good reason to get this phone and write this nice review. For a free phone, I wouldn't complain about this at all.
got feedback?

"Very happy with how this turned out -- I didn't add any pictures, but the text is clear, bright, and easy to read. I chose expedited shipping and it arrived about when I expected it to. Would totally recommend this to anyone!"
"I ordered these for a friend's baby shower per my friend's request. The image quality is excellent, as is the heavy paper quality-- and we didn't do anything fancy, just the basic cut and paper stock. They were easy to customize and arrived fairly quickly. I would happily order from Tiny Prints again in the future."
"I love that I was able to adjust the shape of the invitation, I did the rounded corners instead of the ticked corners like it is shown with. I also love that you can choose for something to be on the back of it. It adds just a touch of something different from other invitations that are out there. The card is slightly rustic & slightly girly which matches the shower theme perfectly! I can't wait to host this shower!"
"I loved the background design on this card. I order a sample of this along with two others. The only thing that I personally didn't like about this invitation was how big the word "Baby" was at the top. Other than that its super cute! True to color and size."

Shootanto: Evolutionary Mayhem Brings Co-Op Lizardmen Slaying to WiiWare
Shootanto: Evolutionary Mayhem Brings Co-Op Lizardmen Slaying to WiiWare
Curse those Lizardmen! With their scales, and the slime, and their...green-ness. In Hudson's upcoming WiiWare title, Shootanto: Evolutionary Mayhem you'll be able to put a stop to their lizardly tactics once and for all!
Hudson claims the game has a "unique" take on Evolution, as players work their way through numerous levels in light gun shooter fashion. You'll actually start the game as a monkey, and slowly evolve into a super soldier - which sounds perfectly normal to me. With two player local co-op support this looks to be a nice kid friendly diversion from some of the other more adult shooters on the Wii.
Did I just say adult shooters on the Wii? Weird....

Looking for Geum Triflorum seed info AKA 'Prairie Smoke'
I have been trying to find seeds for this unique plant and did find some. A packet of 50 seeds was $2, not bad, but the shipping of that packet was $5! Does anyone have a more reasonable source? Oh yes, I also found the bareroot plants but the shipping on those light weight babies was $12.50. I would appreciate hearing from you if you have sources. Thanks in advance.
I just got two packets of seeds from Specialty Perennials in Apple Valley MN - shipping cost was $2.75 total. Website is www.hardyplants.com.
You might also search at IonExchange www.ionxchange.com and Prairie Moon Nursery prairiemoonnursery.com for prices on seeds/bareroot plants/plugs and shipping costs for each.
Hello darwingardener,
I sent you an e-mail but it was returned. I will be looking at Target and again at my favorite nursery this weekend for the Geum Triflorum seeds in hopes I can find them in town. We are getting green grass here, everyone is so excited as we have had a beastly winter. We all know spring is a ways off but it still makes the spirit soar to see the earth awakening from its winter sleep.
I looked at the seed selection at the "big box store with the red bulls eye" the other day, and they don't seem to carry a lot of native seeds, but the one in your area may have them, you never know. I know you can get the seeds for Prairie Smoke/Geum triflorum at Prairie Moon nursery (see link below).
Prairie Moon gives the Geum triflorum seed a code "C" with a number 60, which means the seeds likely needs cold, moist stratification for at least 60 days/2 months before the seeds will germinate. It may be a little late even in Zone 5 to stratify them outside, it depends on how warm it is there in Kansas now. But you can always stratify them in your refrigerator.
Prairie Moon also sells them as potted plants:
I think you get 38 cells for $96. Not sure if you can order fewer than 38, but it's worth a call or email to check I suppose.
Good luck!

TravelPod Member ReviewsBest Western Alpen Resort Hotel Zermatt
The hotel is split into several buildings. We are on the first floor with a view of the Matterhorn from our balcony.
The room is very comfortable with separate bath and sitting rooms.
Dinner and breakfast were both good quality and plenty of it.

Snow angels, snow balls & sleds
Monday 5th Jan - After looking at the map of Italy and wanting to get Liam up to some snow we chose to have a day trip to this delightful little town in northern Italy, hoping to find some snow to play in, and it was only about 2 hours by train. Aosta is a bilingual town in the Alps close to the entrance of the Mont Blanc tunnel, the major transport link of Italy to northern Europe. It has many very old roman ruins, but we didn't see any of the town! While researching the ...
Verbier with the Jeffcotes - Week 1
... sounds familiar. We were greeted in our Chalet by the Jeffcotes who were in very high spirits after their 32 hr journey to Verbier via London. We were also greeted by Zara and Charlotte who are our amazing chef and hostess - more about them later.
Somehow we managed to get 9 people in and out of the ski rental shop and kitted out in with boots, skis poles, helmets etc and had a welcome drink with the Jeffy's at the W hotel who had kindly put up a pop-up bar with ...
Pre Xmas snowboarding trip! A day in Verbier!

It was only about an hour n half to Verbier so we were on the mountain by 11:30. Not the earliest morning ever but not too bad. We parked down the bottom and got the gondola up. It was such a nice clear day that we got such good views! We were completely surrounded by mountains. Verbier also doesn't have much snow so not all ...

We weren't disappointed though, as we were blessed with a beautiful panorama of snow-capped mountains - 29 of them over 13,000ft high and two HUGE St Bernard dogs for Ness to stroke and fuss over. I'm not exaggerating when I say these dogs were HUGE – on their hind legs they would make Chewbacca look like a dwarf!

When to fertilize a newly planted Meyer Lemon tree.
I planted a new Meyer Lemon tree and I'm not sure when I should start to fertilize it. I posted a different post and everyone tells me 3 to 4 times a year (Feb, May and Sep). That is great and all, but I just planted this in the ground last Sunday. Do I need to wait till May for a 1st fertilization or is it ok to do it in Feb?
Also, I got a 15gal. and I have always understood it that if it's a 5gal. plant then you give it 5gal. of water, if it's 15gal. then you give it 15gal. of water. I used B1 and gave the plant 12gal. of water the same day I planted it. Can you please clarify about the fertilization and water requirements for a newly planted Mayer Lemon.
Here is a picture for your viewing pleasure.
That is a great question. I guess it also depends on your soil. Looks like you are in a warmer climate. For now as it is the winter season I'd do about half the gallons of the pot size. At first this may be a trial and error kind of thing. If you find that it gets thirsty you'll see the leafs start to droop or curl a little. Also it is good to lightly hose the leafs as well. For fertilizer you do cut back on fertilizing until you start seeing some blooms or fruits. Myself, I have a very small meyer Lemon tree and I do about half the amount of fertilizer twice as often. If that makes sense. But i'm sure you'll be fine. Start being a little light on watering and fertilizing and if you need to water more you'll know. Good luck! Great looking tree!
Here is a link that might be useful: sunroomgardening.blogspot.com
I will try this out and see what I come up with. I will cut the watering to 8gal. each time the top layer of dirt looks dry. I plan to use AZ Best Citrus Fertilizer, and I plan to give it it's first fertilization at the end of Feb., this will give the plant a good month before any additional nutrients have been provided. Please if anyone sees any issues with my plan, speak up. Or even to suggest additional needs I'm not considering.
JR, don't water when the soil 'looks' dry. The surface of any bare soil will dry out very quickly, but the soil system underneath can remain moist for much longer. You'll have to get down and feel the soil beneath the surface.
As a general rule, it is not recommended that newly planted trees be fertilized for several months. This allows the root system to establish itself before the top begins to flush. In your location, with all of that heat reflective block and stone, you want to encourage plenty of roots before the hot season begins. Once you've found a good citrus fertilizer, you should consider following the directions that accompany that product.
Your gallons of water theory is off. Your little tree won't need near that amount for quite some time. Frequency depends upon how fast the soil drains, soil type, temperature, time of year, amount of sunlight, humidity, wind, and other factors.
It looks like the tree trunk is wrapped with something. Am I seeing things? Could you take a close-up image of the tree trunk at soil level? I'd like to figure out what kind of soil that is.
Thanks for the knowledge. Their is not anything wrapped around the tree trunk. I plan to take some pictures today after I get home from work. I will get some close-ups so you can see the current condition of the soil, tree trunk and foliage. I was looking at the foliage last night and it seems that is looks rough in some spots and good in others, I'm not sure if this happened after I planted it or if I just didn't notice it at the nursery.
I will allow the roots to get established before I fertilize, do you have a time frame on when you would think that should be?
I thought that seemed like a large amount of water for the plant. I will tone it back quite a bit. What do you think would be a good amount to start with when it does require watering?
Thanks for your time and comments.
Nice looking Meyer; I would expect it to start blooming soon. Rhizo is right about not fertilizing it when you plant it; the absence of nutrients encourages roots to grow in search of food; and that will be followed by leaf and branch growth. Because of the time of year, especially with expectation of bloom, I would wait about 3-4 weeks and then give it a light fertilizer; maybe again in another month if it is blooming; and after that I would rely on regular foliar fertilization (I spray my garden trees every 15 days) and then the first of May begin your regular 3 times per year fertilization. I fertilize my field trees January, May, and September with a side treatment of chelated minerals in July.
Rhizo, here are a few more pictures. One of the Lemon trunk so you can see soil type.
Here is one of the Meyer Lemon foliage.
Key Lime Tree I just planted yesterday.
Key Lime looks like it's in bloom.
Let me know if everything looks good. Thanks.

Not impressed! You simply belly up to a plank and get a sample of wine. There wasn't much of an explanation about the wines. There were no places to sit or put down your sip of wine. I do not recommend this place.
We were visiting Cedarburg for one of their Christmas holiday events and paid a visit to the Cedar Creek Winery. This wine shop was busy. A tasting of four wines was complementary. The wines were reasonable priced. I enjoyed the experience and walked out with one bottle of wine and another item from the shop.
Very cool place to visit with its history and scenery and even fairly decent wine, however its a wine shop not a winery, per se. They only have outdoor seating, no entertainment or vineyard, but have lots of unique things in their shop. The wine was so-so and the damn right outside sure made it picaresque. I consider myself a...
I am not a wine drinker but I decided to do a wine tasting here with friends. They have a pleasant shop with very knowledgeable staff. Wine was inexpensive and very good. I walked out with 3 bottles. I was impressed.
I love going to Cedarburg especially in the fall. The downtown is charming with upscale boutique and antique stores. Make sure you stop by the Cedar Creek settlement and sample some of the very reasonably priced wines by Cedar Creek Winery. Located in the lower level of the old mill it offers a wine tasting as well as a very...
This is a nice town to visit, the Winery is interesting as it is History of the area. There are some nice Cafes in the town as and you pass through you can smell the coffee beans being roasted.
We stopped in and were pleased with the welcome of this store. Offers 4 wine tastings- by knowledgable staff. Place was busy, but they were quick and friendly as they kept the line moving.
We love going and finding new places each year. I'm glad we stopped for a wine tasting on our way to Milwaukee. We tasted a nice variety and found some new favorites.
The tour costs $5/person. For that you get a tour of their very small wine-making operation that occurs in the historical cellar below, plus numerous tastings.

Well my wife wanted to go shopping so I went on the winery tour at the Cedar Creek winery. Our guide was from New Zealand but really knew her stuff when it came to the winery and wines. She even taught the group how to "trill" which is how to kind of slurp wine noisily to get the best taste...

What alternative iPod opening tools have worked for you?
We sell iPod opening tools. They're all right-- they're soft because we don't want people to scratch the case as they open it, but that means they break easily.
I have seen guitar picks and razor blades work in the past. What works for you? What size guitar pick would you recommend?
A .88-mm guitar pick seems to work the best compared to thinner and thicker picks.
Thanks! I've always thought guitar picks were a great option, but I haven't taken the time to test a wide variety of thicknesses.
Accepted Answer
I like "black sticks" - the hard nylon probes available from Apple and others:
They are softer than metal spudgers, yet firmer than the tools usually offered as "iPod opening tools". They will at least last thru the repair of a product, while the softer tools have failed on me before even getting a repair started. If you can get a source for these and offer them at iFixIt, it will be a win for anyone working on product repairs featured here!
The source listed above has been confirmed to offer the exact same part used by Apple, I am not sure if they are the same item offered by iFixIt: http://www.ifixit.com/Apple-Parts/Heavy-...
the iFixit part is the regular spudger.
You will laugh, but for opening a lot of electronics, I have used the metal covers that fill the opening to PCI slots of desktop PCs. They have a nice thin flat end about 3/4" wide that nicely fits into small spaces, they are generally made of pretty strong metal that does not easily bend, and they are long enough that you can get a good grip on them while prying. Of course, they don't have a soft edge, so care must be taken to avoid scratching plastic.
On a side note, my favorite tool of all time is the Tweezerman tweezer -- these can be found in higher-end beauty supply stores, and there are a few different sizes (super pointy, flat end, etc.) They are more expensive than cheap tweezers, but after a few moments of use you will realize why they are infinitely better. They are by far the most precise tweezers in existence, and I use them for countless functions such as picking up screws, holding aside small cables, etc. The handle end of the tweezers is also great for prying. Typically when fixing just about any Apple product, I'll have my tweezers in my left hand and a screwdriver in my right.
Wow, 190 listings on eBay for tweererman tweezers. Would you go over, in order of preference, which ones to have?
The best way is to go to a store like Ulta, and ask the girl where the tweezers are (as she gives you a strange look). I favor eBay for most things, but tweezers are about the same price in person, plus you get to look through the selection. There are two basic types -- the fine point, and the slanted point, and both are useful for different functions. Also, there is a longer version and a shorter version of each (not much difference, something like 3.5" vs 4"). They sell a two-pack, which has the shorter version of both the fine and slanted points, for about the price of a single longer one. This is a great place to start. The two-pack does not come in exciting colors, so if you want hot pink, you will just have to shell out the extra $$$. I personally have all four variations, and I get new ones every few months...I don't know how anyone gets along without them, honestly. By the way, the fine-point version is the PERFECT tool for "jumping" the power on MacBook logic boards!
And also, while I'm at it, the x-acto knife is an awesome tool. For some reason I spent 2.5 years using regular razor blades, and slicing myself open now and then. A $5 x-acto knife seems to have solved that problem. Duh!
UPDATE: My new tweezer preference is the Excelta 00D-SA. It's just as precise as Tweezerman tweezers, but much stronger and therefore lasts longer.
I have a ziplock bag of tools designated specifically for iPods that I've amassed over the years. The contents are as such-
-various guitar picks, ranging in size from two (indispensable)
-a razor blade, for pulling the foam off the hard drives, and occasionally cleaning glue.
-Revlon tweezers, don't laugh.
-two double-ended engineer screwdrivers, with very small phillips and flathead tips.
that's it, and to second leah4-patience is the key.
MacHale Enterprise
My favorite for opening is a single sided Pal razor blade. It has reinforced metal top. Also surgical mosquito hemostats and diamond handling locking tweezers. My "can't live without" tool is a Snap-on ratcheting magnetic multi-tip screwdriver, I have a long and short one. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?...
I used a 2-tool approach. A metal spudger to wedge the case open just the tiniest bit and get the job started (iPod video). Then the black one mentioned above ($2.95 from iFixit) to go all the way around. The metal may have dinged the very inside edge of the plastic case, but it can't be seen except on closest inspection. Both tools have survived to make other repairs.
The real trick is to be relax, focus and take your time.
I don't know for iPods but for iBook cases a smooth guitar pick is the best to unclip the case. It would probably do a great job for opening iPods if your sharpen a bit the pick edges. With this easy to find and cheap tool you'll never damage a case. When working inside a machine the spudger tool is what you need to avoid damaging the internal components and to easily disconnect the small connectors from their socket. I also use magnetised screwdrivers. I have a bowl with a magnet inside and that's where i keep my screwdrivers.
I replaced the hard-drive on my Late 2008 Macbook Pro twice (don't ask). Both times I sanded down the sides of a Chick-fil-A plastic knife as a spudger because I didn't have the patience to wait till I order the proper tools first. I sanded the plastic knife to adjust its thickness and never bothered to keep the home-made tool around. Anyway, the MacGyver method worked.
I use the isesamo tool on just about every ipod I open it works great.
I used a butter knife on my generation 5 iPod and it worked great lol
dunlop, jazz III, guitar pick, used several times, still holding up
I used just a screwdriver my family bought me from the dollar store haha. it's the right size to fit between the case of the video, and the one I was already working on the cover is damaged. But I didn't actually scratch it during so it's all good.
The plastic bubble pack my daily contact lenses come in works fairly well on my 4th Gen iPod.
LOL @ the PCI slot cover tool. I was looking for a puddy knife and found one of them and was all like.. hmm... lol Worked PERFECT for my 6th gen Ipod Classic.
I use - iFixit's Tool kit(the one with the Spudger and the screw driver set and all that amazing stuff[WORKS WONDERS!!!! highly recommend]) And I also use that PCI cover plate! lol
One thing I have found that works PERFECT with out damaging the iPod classic is this little hard HDPE box thingy with a very soft edged pyramid type shape about 1/4 high off the corner of it. What you do is put the iPod in the middle, press down on the iPod GENTLY! but with a good amount of force, and the sides will open like Paris Hiltons legs. :D
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the tip, but who is Paris Hilton and why should we care about her legs?

Return to the Time of Troubles
ampires are undenyably the most noble of all undead. While at first some of their powers may not seem to be as formidable as some other Noble Dead, one can be assured this is not the case in the least. In fact some go so far above even simple vampirism to become vertable Lords of Vampires. Vampiric undeath comes with many compensations that make it well worth the journey.
However one must always be aware of their vunerabilities. Sun is a bane of lesser vampires causing them to weaken and even die if exposed to it for too long. …..
The book goes on to list the following information on Vampires:
Vampire Weaknesses
For all their power, vampires have a number of weaknesses.
- Repelling a Vampire
Vampires cannot tolerate the strong odor of garlic and will not willingly enter an area laced with it. Similarly, they recoil from a strongly presented holy symbol. These things don't harm the vampire—they merely keep it at bay. A recoiling vampire must stay at least 5 feet away from a holy man holding the symbol of his faith and cannot touch or make melee attacks against the creature holding the item for the rest of the encounter. Holding a vampire at bay takes a standard action.
Vampires are also unable to cross running water, although they can be carried over it while resting in their coffins or aboard a ship.
They are utterly unable to enter a home or other building unless invited in by someone with the authority to do so. They may freely enter public places, since these are by definition open to all.
- Slaying a Vampire
Reducing a vampire's hit points to 0 or lower incapacitates it but doesn't always destroy it (see the note on fast healing). However, certain attacks can slay vampires. Exposing any vampire to direct sunlight disorients it: It can take only a single move action or attack action and is destroyed utterly in the next round if it cannot escape. Similarly, immersing a vampire in running water robs it of one-third of its hit points each round until it is destroyed at the end of the third round of immersion. Driving a wooden stake through a vampire's heart instantly slays the monster. However, it returns to life if the stake is removed, unless the body is destroyed. A popular tactic is to cut off the creature's head and fill its mouth with holy wafers (or their equivalent).
Abilities and Powers
Vampire spawn use their inhuman strength when engaging mortals, hammering their foes with powerful blows and dashing them against rocks or walls. They also use their gaseous form and flight abilities to strike where opponents are most vulnerable.
- Blood Drain
A vampire spawn can suck blood from a living victim with its fangs by making a successful grapple check. If it pins the foe, it drains blood, dealing 1d4 points of Constitution drain each round. On each such successful drain attack, the vampire spawn gains 5 temporary hit pints.
- Domination
A vampire spawn can crush an opponent's will just by looking onto his or her eyes. This is similar to a gaze attack, except that the vampire must take a standard action, and those merely looking at it are not affected. Anyone the vampire targets must succeed on a DC 14 Will save or fall instantly under the vampire's influence as though by a dominate person spell from a 5thlevel caster. The ability has a range of 30 feet. The save DC is Charisma-based.
- Energy Drain
Living creatures hit by a vampire spawn's slam attack gain one negative level. The DC is 14 for the Fortitude save to remove a negative level. The save DC is Charisma-based. For each such negative level bestowed, the vampire spawn gains 5 temporary hit points.
- Fast Healing
A vampire spawn heals 2 points of damage each round so long as it has at least 1 hit point. If reduced to 0 hit points in combat, it automatically assumes gaseous form and attempts to escape. It must reach its coffin home within 2 hours or be utterly destroyed. (It can travel up to nine miles in 2 hours.) Once at rest in its coffin, it is helpless. It regains 1 hit point after 1 hour, then is no longer helpless and resumes healing at the rate of 2 hit points per round.
- Gaseous Form
As a standard action, a vampire spawn can assume gaseous form at will as the spell (caster level 6th), but it can remain gaseous indefinitely and has a fly speed of 20 feet with perfect maneuverability.
- Spider Climb
A vampire spawn can climb sheer surfaces as though with a spider climb spell.

Changes in U.S. Policy on Africa in the New Administration: What will it mean for AFRICOM?Jul 07, 2011
U.S. policy is dictated by global political and economic realities as well as domestic U.S. policy priorities. Not only is President Obama faced with the stark reality of an America perceived by many to have lost its moral compass in an increasingly multi-polar world where American power and resource capacities are dwindling and its leadership role being challenged, but the priorities of policy and resource allocation must remain for the short and near-terms on the domestic economic crisis, the two unpopular wars he has inherited and traditional national interest priorities. In the realm of foreign affairs, this means that Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Japan and China will continue to be the highest priorities and, as the developing world intersects with those policy priorities, it will be mostly in the form of India, Brazil, and, perhaps, South Africa. more
