In part 2, Kara L.C. Jones of Mother Henna demonstrates how to transform the journal with layers and colors. Allow your pages to go through "ugly" stages before the beautiful art journal emerges.
- plain old paper, wire-bound journal
- gesso
- soft-medium acrylic gel
- acrylic paints
- watercolor
- ephemera
- paint brush
- watercolor pencils
Additional Instructions
- Don't be afraid to use the Gesso to cover up areas, hide mistakes, or just add mystery.
- Play around with mixes of acrylic paints and watercolors. You never know how they will work off each other.
- Mix up what you use for ephemera. Old sheet music, handwritten notes, old tags, or even the left over stencils from previous items you've cut out. A great layering piece happens when you use old dress patterns as a layer. Their tissue paper quality masks things below it, but still is sort of peek-a-boo. The text and lines on them can play off the page interestingly. You just never know till you glue it on and mix it in with everything else.
- Don't be afraid to let it get ugly ugly ugly and then keep adding on top of it! Eventually something that feels right will emerge. But to avoid a totally muddy mess of colors, it is best to start with lightest colors first and build up to dark. If you mess up, white Gesso can be a savior though!
- Remember, this is all a playful experiment! You don't have to know the "right" way -- just play! Find YOUR way.

i just wait for my friend to get all the good movies and watch them at his house.. and i think that snakes on a plane is worth buying
Want Credits Fast? Love The Thrill Of Gambling? Then Come On Down And See For Yourself!
.... What did it promise?
.......Snakes..... Check
.......Planes...... Check
What else did it have? Gore, gore, gore, snakes, gore, snakes, and Samuel L Jackson generally being himself.
It never looked like a good movie. Ever since Mr.Jackson refused to have the title of the movie changed, it set the tone for the entire project: tongue-in-cheek. It was a movie that never looked like it was going to win an Emmy, but it knew that, and ran with it. It was like they tried to create that cult movie flavor in a lab, and did it quite successfully.
2) Hitchiker's guide wasn't the worst movie ever. THIS was the worst movie ever, but that is neither here nor there.
3) Like it or not, this is the cult movie for this generation.
I wanna meet the person that thought of snakes on a plane how can some one think of some thing so dumb like snakes on a plane.

A portable alarm apparatus for use by a sudden heart attack patient is provided that is characterized by a housing part connected to a suspension member for hanging around a patient's neck. Sensors are disposed on the suspension member and connected to an extending lead, enabling the sensors to contact respective pulse spots on the patient's neck, due to the downward force resulting from gravity acting on the housing part. The sensors detect the pulse signals in an artery in the user's neck corresponding to heartbeats and output an electrical signal for input to a control circuit disposed in the housing part for storage, display and generation of a warning alarm.
1. A portable alarm apparatus for a sudden heart attack patient, comprising:
a housing having a predetermined weight, said housing having a frontal display screen for displaying a pulse rate thereon;
suspension means coupled to said housing for hanging said housing around a user's neck, said suspension means including a suspension member and at least one sensor for sensing pressure changes and outputting an electrical signal responsive thereto, said sensor being positioned on the user's neck for detecting pulse pressure changes therein when said suspension member is positioned about the user's neck, said sensor being adapted to be in contiguous contact with the user's neck by a force provided by said predetermined weight of said housing transmitted through said suspension member;
a control circuit disposed within said housing and having (a) an input coupled to said sensor for receiving said electrical signal, (b) means for determining a heart rate from said electrical signal, (c) an output coupled to said display screen for displaying said determined heart rate, (d) means for input and storage of a maximum heart rate value and a minimum heart rate value, (e) means for comparing said stored maximum and minimum heart rate values with said determined heart rate coupled to said input and storage means, and (f) means for output of an alarm signal coupled to said comparing means, said alarm signal being output responsive to said determined heart rate being greater than said stored maximum heart rate value, and in the alternative responsive to said determined heart rate being lower than stored minimum heart rate value.
2. The portable alarm apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said suspension means includes a plurality of said sensors displaced one from the other along said suspension member.
The present invention is a continuation-in-part application of an earlier application, Ser. No. 09/025,798, filed Feb. 19, 1998 now in pendency referring to an alarm apparatus fastened at inside wrist to sense the pulse on wrist and generate warning alarm or phonetic sound asking for help when the heartbeats of a patient reach an endangering limit predetermined to avoid any delay for sending to hospital.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention is particularly characterized by connecting the alarm apparatus with a suspension member to detect pulse on the patient's neck.
2. Description of the Related Arts
According to the alarm apparatus (1) of the prior application, shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 7, which is connected with an integral control circuit and disposed in a housing part (2), like a wrist watch, fastened to inside of wrist (4) by a fastening belt (3), and detect the pulse from the wrist (4) by a sensor (5) set on the back side of said housing part (2), showing practical heartbeats per minute on a display screen (7) of a display device (6) in the front for user's observation. Wherein the patient's pulse is detected from the wrist (4) and then conveyed into the housing part (2), converted to electronic signal by energy transducer (8); electric pulse is formed by an oscillating circuit (9) at a pre-set frequency, then is counted through the energy transducer (8) and oscillating circuit (9) once the pulse is detected. Lastly, by a counter circuit (28) the electric pulse is converted to form of speed of pulse, showed by three-digit number on the display screen (7) of the display device (6) representing the pulse per minute for user's observation. Along one lateral of the housing part (2) are start button (10), maximum button (11), and minimum button (12). In which the start button (10) refers to a button to start the integral circuit operation; one minute after pressing said start button (10) user's heartbeats begin to reveal every minute. Said maximum button (11) refers to a button which is pressed to record a pulse maximum limit by releasing said button (11) after setting limit numbers on the display screen (7) the pulse number is saved in the recorder of the internal pre-set circuit (13) for comparison with the detected pulse in an internal comparator (14) which may trigger an internal alarm (15) once the patient's detected pulse is equal to or higher than the pre-set maximum limit to generate alarm signal, which may be alarm sound or phonetic sound, for the patient's or nurse's attention to take necessary actions. Said minimum button (12) refers to a button for recording a pulse minimum limit in accordance with the patient's condition, having same pre-set process with said maximum button (11), the pulse minimum limit is saved in the recorder of the internal pre-set circuit (13) for comparison with the detected pulse in said internal comparator (14) which may trigger the alarm (15) once the patient's detected pulse is equal or lower than the pre-set minimum limit to generate alarm signal warning the patient or nurse to take necessary actions.
The main object of the present invention is to connect the alarm apparatus disclosed in the prior application with a suspension member for detecting the patient's pulse in a more accurate way since neck part has denser pulse spots for detection. These and other objects structure and advantages of the invention are depicted in the drawings and will be explained in the following.
FIG. 1 shows the first embodiment of this invention.
FIG. 2 shows the using state of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 shows the second embodiment of this invention.
FIG. 4 shows the third embodiment of this invention.
FIG. 5 shows the front view of the first application of alarm apparatus being worn on wrist.
FIG. 6 shows rear view of the alarm apparatus in FIG. 5.
FIG. 7 is the inner circuit block of the alarm apparatus in FIG. 5.
FIG. 8 is the circuit diagram of the alarm apparatus in FIG. 5.
Now refers to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 showing the internal circuit of the present invention, wherein a sensor (5) is a device for detecting the pumping press of artery in the wrist (4) and converting the beats to electric signal amplified by a signal amplifier (23) to a degree being able to be digitized by a squaring circuit (24) and shaped as square pulse for counting in a pulse counter and control circuit (25) generating a control signal during entering a first and third pulse for control gate (27) which converts pulse time to a base and gate (29) which controls the entrance of the pulse number converted from an oscillating circuit (9) to a 1200 base generating circuit (30) into a dividing circuit (31). In order to enhance the accuracy of detection, a standard pulse generating circuit (26) is disposed to amplify the time of two pulses by 10 times, then the amplified time is converted to a base in the control gate (27) as a divisor saved temporarily in a bit counter (28) to divide base 1200 generated from the base generating circuit (30) in the dividing circuit (31) resulting in a number representing the pulse number per minute.
Further refers to FIGS. 1, 2, and 7, showing a first embodiment of alarm apparatus (1) connected with an integral control circuit and disposed in a housing part (2) showing practical heartbeats per minute by three-digit number on a display screen (7) in the front, and along one lateral of the housing part (2) of the present invention are start button (10), maximum button (11), and minimum button (12). In which the stat button (10) refers to a button to start the integral circuit operation. The maximum button (11) and minimum button (12) on said housing part (2) are for recording and saving both pulse maximum and minimum limit in a recorder of an internal pre-set circuit (13) for comparison of the detected pulse to pre-set maximum and minimum in an internal comparator (14) and trigger an internal alarm (15) to generate alarm signal when the patient's practical pulse is equal to or higher than the maximum limit and equal to or lower than the minimum limit. Said housing part (2) has one lateral connected with one end of a suspension member (17) for hanging on patient's neck (16), and extending lead (18) for contact with sensors (5) disposed on the suspension member (17); with gravity of the housing part (1) of the alarm apparatus (1), the housing part (2) hangs down at patient's frontal chest and the sensors (5) on the suspension member (17) tightenedly contacts patients neck (16) to detect patient's pulse from the neck part (16) and convey the heart beats signal into the housing part (2) by said lead (18) for procession, display, and generate warning alarm when patient's heartbeats appears unstable (equal to or higher than pre-set maximum limit and equal to or lower than pre-set minimum limit). The suspension member (17) in this embodiment refers to a necklace (19) linked with metal rings, and the housing part (2) is preferable to arrange various adornment in addition to the display screen (7).
As shown in FIG. 3, the suspension member (17) is also preferable composed of a belt (20) with slight flexibility and a section of chain (21), enabling the sensors (5) connected with the belt (20) to contact corresponding pulse spots on neck (16).
As shown in FIG. 4, the suspension member (17) is possible a soft belt (22) with sufficient length for making a loop around the neck (16) and then hangs down enabling the sensors (5) on the belt (22) to contact pulse spots on patient's neck (16) by gravity of the alarm apparatus(1).

WANTED: I need help, I need a super fast growing hedge?
question I need a super fast growing hedge if anyone knows of any I would appreciate it. we have a neighbor whom has decided that he likes to try to look into our windows. se stays about 10 from our fence but I would like to get some plants to get him to mind his own business. my kids don't feel comfortable anymore. can anyone give me some advise?
I knew as soon as I seen this, that is was a neighbor issue, been there done that, I mentioned forsythia to you on another thread, but now that I see this I wanted to add that you ought to plant rose bushes in a row, the ones that have the largest thorns you can find, in case he tries to come any closer. we had a guy that lives diagonal from us that was standing outside of his door with a video camera, DH sees him while he was messing in the fridge (keep in mind we have a giant white pine tree, that is over our kitchen window) DH from the fridge, starts bobbing and weaving to try to see through the tree at this guy to see what he is doing and he jumped back in the house with the camera, now isn't that spooky?
I hate to keep the sun out of my house, but I really think mini blinds are the best thing invented, and they are inexpensive.
The first thing I'd do is call the police. This is against the law. Then I would plant something with thorns. What comes to mind is barberry or if he ever ventures into your yard and up to the window I'd plant pyracantha. It has the toughest and longest thorns I can think of. You could also invite his wife over to watch him peep into your windows. I'll bet he does it more when she's not home if he's married.

HAVE: Native Ruellia
Not sure if anyone's interested in this, some consider it a weed, but it's a very pretty weed -- really outperformed itself this year, blooming for a very long time despite (or perhaps because of) the heat and drought. I can pot some up for the fall swap if anyone's interested.
After three weeks of vacation with no dogs on the premises my garden seems mainly a study in what rabbits do and do not like to eat! I think I personally supported at least one or two generations of bunnies, and if there's an explosion in the deer population I'm sending them all back over to Brenda's for dessert. Adding insult to injury, in my anger and haste to spray the Tree Guard I accidentally sprayed my basil.
I hope everything grows back before fall, otherwise I'm going to have to cut up those pastel colored egg cartons and stick them on the ends of branches where the flowers should be.

Color of Container
I have been growing peppers and tomatoes in white 5g buckets.
White because that's what I ordered.
I find I can get other buckets in red and orange for less (home depot and firehouse subs)
Has any one done test to see if color makes a difference? Will there be that much effect from heat reflection between colors?
What color would be best?
Yes, it will make a difference in zones like ours. In my empirical experience, plants in white containers do significantly better in Houston. Tomato roots in particular will simply start dying when the soil temperature rockets in a black container. A plant can compensate with transpirational cooling IF the moisture is available, but only to an extent.
Unfortunately, large white plastic containers tend to be harder to find and more expensive. I wrap large (20 gallon), black, blow mold nursery containers in aluminum foil to practically eliminate the radiant heat absorption. Ugly, but it works.

It seems the debate (?) is over. The smithsonian has added two video games to their collection to put on display, recognizing them as art. Do you disagree or agree with them? I think it's great that video games have gotten this much recognition, even though I never cared for the debate that they can or cannot be art. The first two games were nice choices imo too.

We bought this as a TV stand. It does the job but it is not a super sturdy piece. I have purchased pieces on overstock that were an exceptional value for the price paid vs. quality recieved. This table was just alright. It doesn't look super expensive and the lower price reflects the quality you get. It looks a lot more rustic in the picture than it does in person. If you just need something cheep that isn't a key piece of furniture in your room this table is fine but if you are expecting a show piece you will be disapointed.
We are using this console table for an entryway and is a perfect fit. The foot levelers were perfect for our uneven flooring (thank god!) Would recommend the product! I had initially ordered this to the wrong address (just moved and didn't have it memorized) and the customer service was excellent and helped me get my package quickly.
Ordered this table for a guest room because it's narrow and the size was right. It was easy to assemble and looks rustic/industrial with the rustic looking wood table top and shelf, coupled with the metal frame. The only problem I experienced was that the product had a very strong formaldehyde smell (naturally, since it's a product from China), so I had to air out the room for several days until the odor went away. I have found this odor with several furniture products ordered on line with other major on line retailers. Other than that, the price can't be beat!
like the first reviewier, there seems to be a design flaw with the second shelf, we could not get it on, sending it back to Overstock.
I am not real pleased. I am pleased with the sized because I needed a slender table. Assembly was a problem. Was unable to put in the second self.
Not even close. Seems to be built well, but wanted it for the grey finish the description had and picture showed and received something closer to orange.
The color pictured on the table tops are not true to in-person color... More of an alder orange color with chalky white areas. All that being said it goes well in a different area of my home. Sturdy and easy to assemble
This table looks identical to a much more expensive model from ******* **** (I own one) and is made from quality materials and looks great.
This was a great little table but the image makes the wood appear to be a reclaimed greyish color. When it arrived, the wood was almost orange! Unfortunately, I had to return it because the color did not match my other furniture.
I truly regret not listening to the other reviews when it was mentioned that the color of the wood is not as it appears in the picture. It is definitely a honey brown rather than the grey that shows in the images. I was extremely disappointed but decided to keep the table anyway because of the hassle of having to package it back up and then send it back. My husband and I will most likely paint the wood to get it to look more like it should. Other than the color, the table appears sturdy and will suffice as a "behind the sofa" table. The assembly time was short, however, the labeling of the legs was a little confusing. I gave the product 3 stars only for the misleading pictures, but in the end, I would recommend the product if you're okay with a brown (not grey) table.

Canada sending military plane to Mali
Harper insists personnel won't engage in combat
OTTAWA -- Canada is contributing one of its large C-17 military cargo planes to deliver supplies to the capital of Mali after a request from France.
But Prime Minister Stephen Harper insists no Canadian Forces personnel will be involved in any combat action in the landlocked West African country. And he says the transport plane commitment will be short.
An al-Qaida-linked group has seized the northern part of Mali and is advancing south.
The Canadian plane will be used to transport equipment and supplies into the Malian capital of Bamako, which is not in the combat zone.
France, which began airstrikes last week against insurgents in the north, has ordered the immediate evacuation of all French nationals living in the Malian town of Segou.
"There is a serious situation in northern Mali, where there is a large territory now occupied by essentially terrorist entities, who are looking at expanding their influence throughout Africa," Harper said at a Montreal news conference.
"This is a serious enough matter that it has been the subject of a United Nations Security Council resolution supported by all permanent members demanding that there be some kind of international action.
"Our allies, the French, have decided to take the lead on that and have requested specifically from a number of allies, including Canada, very limited and defined support in the form of heavy-lift logistical support."
The C-17 has been committed for only a week.
"We will obviously, after a few days, analyze how that is going and talk with our allies, but this is intended to be of a short duration," the prime minister said.
The real solution must rely on African-led participation, but in the meantime, Canada will lend a hand to the French, he said.
"We think that is an appropriate role for Canada, given our relative capacities and interests."
Despite a punishing aerial bombardment by French warplanes, insurgents grabbed more territory in Mali on Monday, seizing a strategic military camp that brought them far closer to the government's seat of power.
Declaring France had "opened the gates of hell" with its assault, the rebels threatened retribution.
"France... has fallen into a trap much more dangerous than Iraq, Afghanistan or Somalia," declared Omar Ould Hamaha, a leader of the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa, one of the rebel groups controlling the north, speaking on French radio Europe 1.
French fighter jets have been pummelling the insurgents' desert stronghold in the north since Friday, determined to shatter the Islamist domination of a region many fear could become a launch pad for terrorist attacks on the West and a base for co-ordination with al-Qaida in Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan.
The Islamist fighters responded with a counter-offensive Monday, overrunning the garrison town of Diabaly, about 160 kilometres north of Segou, the administrative capital of central Mali, said French Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.
The French Embassy in Bamako immediately ordered the evacuation of the roughly 60 French nationals in the Segou region, said a French citizen who insisted on anonymity out of fear for her safety.
France expanded its aerial bombing campaign, launching airstrikes for the first time in central Mali to combat the new threat.
But the intense assault, including raids by gunship helicopters and Mirage fighter jets, failed to halt the advance of the rebels, who were only 400 kilometres from Bamako, in the far south.
The rebels "took Diabaly after fierce fighting and resistance from the Malian army that couldn't hold them back," said Le Drian.
Mali's military is in disarray and has let many towns fall with barely a shot fired since the insurgency in the West African nation began almost a year ago. While the al-Qaida-linked extremists control the north, they had been blocked in the narrow central part of the landlocked nation.
They appear to have now done a flanking move, opening a second front in the broad southern section of the country, knifing in from the west on government forces.
In response to the insurgent advances, Mauritania, which lies to the northwest of Mali, put its military on high alert.
To the south, the nation of Burkina Faso sent military reinforcements to its border and set up roadblocks. Even Algeria, which had earlier argued against a military intervention, was helping France by opening its air space to French Rafale jets.

You don't need to punch him; you need counselling with her
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I could have forgiven my wife for getting lonely and having anonymous sex with some guy she met in a bar, but she slept with a guy I know. He's not a friend, but he works with me at the store. She felt the burning need to confess this sin to me about a month ago, and now going to work is absolute hell. I just want to pile-drive him whenever I see him looking at me. Sometimes I think he's laughing at me. But, he seems real nervous around me the last week so I figure she might have warned him she's told me and he should watch his back. I know I shouldn't be asking this, but do you think the cops would look past one hard punch in the parking lot? It would make me feel a lot better and he knows he deserves it. -- Going Nuts at Work, Winnipeg
Dear Going Nuts: While assault is a crime, cheating is not. That means you could get charged and found guilty and he still gets away with "sleeping" with your wife. How about you take this up, in a serious way with your wife? Insist she go to relationship counselling with a view to resolving the problems between you or getting out. Warning: Don't tell her you want to fight him! There are a sub-section of women who think that two men fighting over them is a big feather in the cap. Is this the kind of woman you're with? Then you have nothing but pain ahead, unless you dump her on her feather.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I'm crying half the time because my kids won't talk to me. They are mad at me for cheating on their father and leaving our home. The boys live with their dad and he has inspired them to hate me with a passion. I think the youngest one would come around if I could talk to him, as there's a lot he doesn't know. For instance, their father would pick a fight and beat me up if he was drunk and the kids were at school. I formed a relationship with a tough, but sympathetic, loving man I knew from before, who knows my kids from hockey and likes them. I am happy with my new man and well-protected from my ex-husband, but I am longing for my children. Should I tell them the whole story or would that makes things worse? -- Bad Mommy, Elmwood
Dear Bad Mom: You can't make things worse. Hating their mother is a bad situation and it's killing them inside. Since they have no way of understanding why you left, they only see their father's hurt and anger. You might as well tell them the whole story. While you're at it, apologize for breaking up the family and leaving them with an angry, violent man. Tell them the door is open to come and live with you if they want to. They will refuse at first, but give it time. How would this new man feel about that? Time to find out.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: Three doors down from me is a bunch of low-class rednecks, and their spawn, who are driving me crazy. Their boys are all teenagers who squeal around all night and they have loud parties and there's kids spilling out on the snow and beer bottles and roaches on the curbs. They keep us up late at three or four nights a week because the parents work nights with some company. My wife and I didn't want to call the cops because we don't want trouble with our neighbours. But the other day, my husband had a word with the oldest son about the noise, and he said, "F off old man, and mind your own business or you'll be sorry." What's next -- calling in the cops? These kids are tough and we are afraid of revenge. The neighbours right next to them complained last summer and they got all kinds of stuff thrown into their yard including a bag of excrement on their step. Please help. -- Redneck Trouble, Winnipeg
Dear Redneck Trouble: Three doors down is a long ways away to be suffering like this. Next time this gang is disturbing the peace with a roustabout in the front year, call the police and don't worry about reprisals -- any one of six neighbours could have made that call. Don't go over there in person, ever. Reasoning with unreasonable people is a waste of time. But doctors say daily upset with neighbours can cause high blood pressure and other stress-related problems, so you must do things to protect yourself. In the spring, build a grudge fence and get them out of your eyesight. Pyramidal cedars can block sound as well if you buy them big enough and plant them close enough. Just do your best to shut these people out completely. Anybody else out there got ideas to help with horrible neighbours? Please write in, and we'll publish best ideas in an upcoming column.

I really like the look of the W and the room was modern and I like that look. The staff is excellent, especially Leonardo the "door man". Market Restaurant is fantastic.
The bummer about the stay is that there are 2 bars nearby and on the Saturday night we stayed we woke up a few times due to the noise on the street.

Can you explain how these phenomenon can happen?
That's a interesting photo. The top picture looks like it maybe a rainbow. Looks like an arch going up and to the left.
Good pictures. I think these are called Sun Dogs. We see them down this way once in a while, too. I don't know how to send a link to a web site, but just type 'sun dogs' into your browser and you will get explanations of them.
Yep! Thats a sundog. Rare phenomenon. Great capture!
Thank you all! ...have found some on the web!
I never seen this before, and nice to know, it actually has a name!
Here is another pic.
and I always thought this is Konrad's Son Dog, Sundog.
Love the "Sun dog".That is so funny. Another name for it is parhelion.
Man...have you got ideas!..now we have 2 sundogs! LOL
Ideas! or a screw lose. Jury is still out on that one.
Konrad, I just learned about sundogs not long ago...
See-I have learned...Now to see that pic of Eric's version could confuse me...LOL
Hi Gmom and Doris!
Great pictures,
up here in the frozen northland (Minnesota) we see sundogs when it gets very cold, as in well below zero. I understood that they were caused by ice crystals in the air.

RaboDirect PRO12: Scarlets grind out the win in Edinburgh
Last Updated: 27/09/13 10:35pm
Jordan Williams: On the scoreboard for with two tries for Scarlets
Scarlets battled their way to a deserved 22-9 victory at Edinburgh in a drab game distinguished by a fine try from Nick Reynolds.
Jordan Williams also scored two tries for the visitors, while Rhys Priestland kicked a penalty and two conversions.
However, the result means that Edinburgh are still scratching around for the second win they need to leave the bottom of the table. Their points came from three penalties from stand-off Harry Leonard.
A tentative opening was to be expected from two teams still looking for some good form and it was not relieved until the 15 minute.
Edinburgh gave away a penalty in front of their posts and from it, Jordan Williams came off his wing and was sent close to the line where the move ended when lock Jake Ball was penalised for hanging on.
The same man was again culpable a few minutes later, diving into a ruck set up after a scything run by Priestland.
Scarlets had upped the pace with a policy of kicking into Edinburgh territory and then staying there - until the 24th minute.
Ball was again penalised at the breakdown and found himself sent to the sin bin by referee Davie Wilkinson.
Edinburgh responded with their first sustained spell of possession. Ross Ford and Willem Nel were prominent in taking the ball forward and when Scarlets were penalised on their 22-metre line, Leonard kicked home the simple penalty.
Edinburgh were, however, only ahead for three minutes. They were penalised for not releasing and Priestland scored from wide left.
Textbook try
The return of Ball brought a concerted attack, finishing with a textbook try.
Following a number of territory-securing carries by forwards, Priestland threw a pass out to the right wing for Reynolds, who arrived at pace for the touchdown that the former converted from far out.
But the half ended with a penalty from Leonard after a Scarlets scrum offence, so the visitors went in at the break leading 10-6.
Only two minutes into the second half, home full back Greig Tonks handed off Scarlets' Rhodri Williams before sending Jack Cuthbert on a run that ended with a penalty in the visitors' half that Leonard kicked while John Barclay was sent to the sin bin.
Scarlets were a man down but soon produced an exciting score.
Edinburgh scrum half Sam Hidalgo-Clyne's weak clearing kick to the visitors' right was fielded by Priestland, who found left winger Jordan Williams. His arcing run bamboozled three Edinburgh men and ended with a try in the left corner.
Scarlets' third try came eight minutes from time with Edinburgh's prop Nel in the bin.
Priestland kicked to the left wing where home winger Lee Jones knocked the ball over his line. The following-up Jonathan Davies was there to touch down with Priestland converting from touch.

Network Buffers and Memory Management
Ethernet is probably the most common physical interface type that can be handled. The kernel provides a set of general purpose Ethernet support routines that such drivers can use.
eth_header() is the standard Ethernet handler for the dev-hard_header routine, and can be used in any Ethernet driver. Combined with eth_rebuild_header() for the rebuild routine it provides all the ARP lookup required to put Ethernet headers on IP packets.
The eth_type_trans() routine expects to be fed a raw Ethernet packet. It analyses the headers and sets skb->pkt_type and skb->mac itself as well as returning the suggested value for skb->protocol. This routine is normally called from the Ethernet driver receive interrupt handler to classify packets.
eth_copy_and_sum(), the final Ethernet support routine is internally quite complex, but offers significant performance improvements for memory mapped cards. It provides the support to copy and checksum data from the card into a sk_buff in a single pass. This single pass through memory almost eliminates the cost of checksum computation when used and improves IP throughput.
Alan Cox has been working on Linux since version 0.95, when he installed it in order to do further work on the AberMUD game. He now manages the Linux Networking, SMP, and Linux/8086 projects and hasn't done any work on AberMUD since November 1993.
What about rmem_max / rmem_default ?
An admirable in-depth article. Just a stupid question (I'm so slow-witted) : I still don't catch the link between the rmem_default/rmem_max sysctl parameters (socket receive buffer default/max length) and the buffer allocated by dev_alloc_skb(). Socket receive buffer vs buffer of skb : are we talking about he same memory area, or are they different things (involving necessarily a copy from the one to the other, sooner or later) ?
Thanks for anyone who would make it clear to me,
Missing pictures
The links to figures do not work (File not found error). I guess time does matter (1996 article!). To anyone reading this article, please provide us some links for the pictures (or link to some other up to date articles).
Thank you,
Should be working now.

thanx for the great article..
at each layer the data and tail pointers change right??
so if i need to acces the L7 data,consider UDP can i take the from pre routing hook can i take data+udphdr->length..??
Help Required....
Hi Alan Cox,
Thanx for the article.
Iam Ram.Iam new to device driver development.
some how i manged to write a network driver.
still i need some help.But I want to access the driver functions directly from user program written in c.
i.e. I want to access the open,close,hard_start_xmit(),ioctl functions directly without using the socket api(socket,bind,connect etc). I want my own function api.
is it possible to do it.
Thanx in adavance,
good article
thanks for this article. It explains most of the things. But still I feel that some more thing related to Bottom Half/Top half processing should be added. and also things are not clear about the logic of freeing/owning skbuffers.

Idea for Empty Prescription Bottles?
So I keep looking at my empty prescription bottles, and think: "Hmm, what can I do with these other than recycle them?"
Obviously I could decoupage them and make them into pretty little vintage style pill bottles to put in the purse. But I was hoping for something a little different than that...
And I know YOU are the folks to ask!
Any ideas? I'd hate to just chuck them all.
Here is a link that might be useful: My crafting/thrifting/vintage decorating blog
Pill bottles are usually airtight so they make great seed savers. I have also used them in drawers and added all of those little items that end up in the junk drawer- buttons etc. In the garage they can hold screws and nails.
You might also do a search for what to do with film canisters to get other idea. The bottles are often similar in size.
Thank you all! There are some really good ideas here. The seed savers concept is particularly appealing, given last year I was putting seeds in a very stylish (ahem!) plastic baggie. :)
The sewing items idea is a good one, too, though. They'd fit so nicely in a sewing box.
Hmmm... so much good food for thought! Thank you for your time and brainpower, everyone.
I hadn't thought about this in ages! My Grandmother, who deeded me her "crafty genes", used to do crafts with my brother and me. One that we loved was to melt (in the oven) prescription bottles along with bits of glass, chunks of crayon and other little "doo dads" like broken jewelry, etc. This worked especially well with the hard plastic amber bottles - I haven't tried with the newer more opaque ones...Anyway, you arrange little piles of junk, bake in a 500 degree oven on an old cookie sheet until it flattens the piles out and once cooled, they make really pretty medallions for necklaces and sun catchers/windchimes. You just have to drill a hole in them.
Hi susie bird,
When you put these little piles in the oven, were all these doodads + the bottles just all grouped together, or were the doodads inside the bottles?
This idea appeals to me....I think I have a ton of these amber prescription bottles and loads of costume jewellery that I inherited from my mom.
I have faced this, also.
I do a lot of crafting.
I have a label maker and I label each pill bottle for speed of time in finding something.
I use them for beads, jewelry making pieces, seed saving, small amounts of spices for the camper...
Also, there is a local church that collects them and they recycle the containers in third world countries when they do a medical clinic.
They will even take the remaining medications if, for whatever reason, you were not able to use it.
Hm... I do have the amber bottles myself. In addition to Justlinda's question about whether you put the goodies inside the bottles before you bake them, do you line the cookie sheet with something like wax paper?
I too have a lot of little beads and doo-dads that would be useful here, and can actually see getting into this sort of craft.
I do also like Wandaredhead's reuse idea, though, too.
That's the marvelous thing about these boards-- you get so many different ideas and options you'd never come up with on your own.
Many thank yous to everyone.
Don't know why I forgot this one.
I put several bottles standing upright in a plastic bowl.
Put them close so they won't tip over.
I fill the bottles with water and freeze.
The size is wonderful for ice cubes for those drink bottles with small tops.
I also either drill a small hole in the tops or use aluminum foil over the tops and make a small hole in the foil.
These work great for rooting leaves like African violet, herbs, etc.
There was a study that said clear containers work better than colored containers but I have had good luck with the medicine bottles.
Please everyone be very careful about 'melting' plastic in or on the stove - they can put out hideous fumes that can make you sick and possibly kill pet birds (as will Teflon fumes). Your grandmother may have gotten lucky with a particular type way back when, but considering all the chemical junk that's out there now, I wouldn't take a chance.
THANK YOU !! You guys are the greatest! I'm the least crafty person in the world - but love the trash to treasure & am an avid recycler...
You would not believe how many plastic grocery bags of pill bottles I have!!! [I never told my DH that I moved them to the new house.. shhhhhh it's a secret!!]
I've given lots to a couple of friends who do crafts for storage...
But we have a 'farm museum' which also sells heirloom seeds. and I called them to see if they'd like some pill bottles...
As long as I promised to never tell -- the museum will take them -- the last thing they need is a hundred people showing up with their 'pill bottles' . They don't want to be tossing or storing them either!
Tell me why the industry hasn't come up with a bottle that decomposes after a while..
I just use them to better organize my drawers. At my bathroom dressing table, they hold eyeliners and eyebrow pencils upright so they're easier to locate quickly. A larger one holds my mascaras. In the laundry room drawer, they hold stray buttons, paperclips, etc. Nothing exotic or imaginative, but they do help me to stay more organized.
I fill each with $10 in quarters and keep 2 in the trunk of each car. If you break down, unlike paper money, they can be used for pay phones. They can be used for vending machines or food while youre waiting for help to come get you at a resteraunt or conveniance store. They can be used for oil, gasoline, a tire repair, a tip for someone who stopped to help fix a flat. Simple things like a new headlight bulb, wiper blade etc etc etc the list goes on. They can also be used for toll booths and parking meters. I find that $20 in quarters just seems like a handy thing. The trick is to remember theyre in your tool box or trunk when you need them and to keep them refilled when you use some.
Here is what I did with my lids and they are so easy and pretty.http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/junk/msg022254547805.html?13
Here is a link that might be useful: plant markers
I'm glad this thread got revived as i've got a bunch of them as well. I never thought about the air tightness for matches and spices for camping. I was thinking of using some of the larger ones for concrete molds for mushroom stems. They would be a nice size for turret molds on the top of sand castle walls at the beach too.
Saving seeds container is a great idea.
I love the idea of melting stuff in the oven to make wind chimes or garden art. Yes, any fumes would be dangerous, but that is what open windows and fans are for. I will just arrange everything in the oven, open the windows and put a large fan in a window taking all the fumes out. Then while it is baking, I'll work in the garden outside. When the time is up, just turn off the oven, leave the oven door open but take my "art" outside to cool. Keeping the fans on all the while. After an hour I am sure the fumes will be pulled out.
What a fun, inexpensive idea. I'll probably add some of those glass stones. To make sure nothing explodes, I'll put some lid or cover over the glass, tho.
Let us know if anyone does this. I cannot do photos but I would love to see your photos.
I get my prescriptions from Target. Their bottles are bright red and odd shaped. I am going to turn them into a large solar light for the yard once I get enough of them collected. :o)
I put root tone in one and keep it with my gardening tools. It make is easy to dip a plant stem into when rooting new plants and I use the edge to tap off the excess. Works great and is not messy.
Please DON'T melt plastics in your oven. The fumes are toxic, accumulate in your body over the years, and an open window isn't enough to protect you. Residue coats the interior of your oven and will contaminate future foods you cook. You can't get all of the residue out by washing the oven because it is inside the air flow vents.

When I run
python setup.py build, the compilation fails because the Visual C++ 9.0 compiler is used. I have to use version 10.0 (C++0x features). How can I achieve this in a portable way? (It should still work on Linux)
