it's official. we drove by a real-life christmas tree lot today, which means that it's time to get cracking on our holiday decorating. these paper ornaments can be hung just about anywhere (from a tree, in a window, from a chandelier) and they are super simple to make. all it takes is some paper and a stapler to make any room feel festive. just click here for more photos and full instructions.
happy decorating!
-derek & lauren
Here's what you'll need:
-Various colors of paper or cardstock, cut into 1″ x 11″ strips. We used 5 colors of cardstock plus silver and gold gift wrap.
-X-acto blade
-Metal ruler
-Cutting Mat
-Thread or monofilament for hanging
Using your X-acto blade and straight edge, cut a few sheets of each color paper into strips that measure 1″ wide by 11″ long.
Lay out your color combinations. We used 3 colors per ornament, repeating the middle color on the outside of each one.
Cut the center strip down to 6″ long. The following concentric layers will consist of 2 pieces, each measuring 7″, 9″ and 11″, respectively.
Make sure the tops of all the strips are flush, and then staple them together. Then line up the bottom edges on the opposite side, so that they are flush, and place a staple on that end. We kept it nice and simple, but there are a bunch of different configurations you can do by playing around with the lengths of the strips and different placement of staples. Now just find a favorite spot to hang them. Ours are clustered above the dining room table.
d & l, this is a great project. it reminds me of the years when my mother would hang ornaments in the corners of the ceiling, or along the tops of the window sills … simple, magical, and fun!
So simple, so fresh, so clean… It's off to the scrapbooking store for paper…
UUuuuuu…. so PRETTY! Reminds me of this one we found last year: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-3D-Paper-Snowflake
Wow, those are so simple and lovely.
These are fabulous! I spent so many evenings as a kid making paper chains with my mum for christmas, think I'll make some of these using just white paper : )
thanks for the inspiration. Could get out of hand (think Will Ferrel in Elf!)
really lovely project! I'm very inspired..
Those are great! How did you attach them to the ceiling…?
I love this project. Like the others, it brings me back to my childhood making ornaments with my creative mom.
We have a small chandelier that hangs over our table, so we just draped the ornaments on that. You could also hang them from a dowel or circular embroidery hoop and suspend that from the ceiling!
this is fantastic!!
Oh, what a great idea! Thank you! :)
These would be really pretty with patterned paper, or velum. So many possibilities!
How about little ones from origami paper?!?!!
oh, the cuteness! i can't wait to make these. i'm going to use old pages from magazines. can't wait.
thanks for the fun holiday project!
Thank you — a lovely antidote to the cheesy landfill sprouting
everywhere just now — I will do some tonight.
Awesome! I want to have a go!
this is excellent and perfect timing for the ornament making party i'm going to sat. now i know what to bring!
These would probably look cool in a more 3-d fashion of a ball. Or in tree shape or bell shape.
love them! such a great idea!
You can be eco and use magazine pages for these too, especially the thicker glossy paper
These are great! An idea for those papers that are one-sided — double them up so that there is an inner pattern and an outer pattern…
I am making these for my vestibule!!!
I love this! Thanks for sharing :D
I just love these! I am going straight to the art store after I pick up my daughter from school!!
Thanks for sharing this idea! I will have 24 Girl Scouts making this as the decorations for an upcoming Christmas party for underprivilged kids. So simple and graphic.
These are so great, and there are endless possibilities to making them. I didn't think anything could get me in a festive mood, but i can't wait to make these.
Great idea! And awesome to do with kids.
love! if you want to make things even easier, just cut all the paper strips to the same length, align them on the top, arrange them the way you like them, staple, and trim the end. (i am very lazy.)
wonderful idea! i love how simple they are and yet as a group they make a great statement.
OMG, I LOVE this!
How cute!
I love this idea, and such a simple but beautiful shape!
These are great! I will make some for my office. Thanks for this wonderful idea!
This is so awesome! I was looking for a fun alternative to paper lanters. This is definitely better! :)
Wow Many thanks,
Seems so o simple – And so nice – Great tutorial!!
Merci pour le tuto, je vais m'en servir pour l'école
thank you!!
This is so beautiful and simple, I love it. We're going to make a ton of them here in my art department and hang them all over the office for holiday decorations.
Thank you!!!
in my own place for the first time this christmas, and trying to craft all of my decorations (cheaply!) by hand… this is a GREAT suggestion!
I love love love this.
so adorable. thank you.
totally tubular!
i know what i'll be doing this weekend :)
I love these! I think I'm going to make a bunch in different sizes to hang over my bed as a grown-up mobile. Thanks for the great tutorial.
I really like it!!.. But how do we attach it to the ceilings?
wow what a great idea!
Wow. I love papercraft. That idea is lovely. I'll have to try it.
emil, for a nonpermanent solution, you can use those plastic 3m hooks that peel off with no damage (smallest size, clear plastic) — attach them, hang ornaments with fishing line, take them down whenever. we've used them to hang things temporarily from the ceilings at school.
they are with the framing supplies usually at art stores like michael's or hardware/framing supplies at any department store. they are good for temporarily stringing up holiday lights as well.
Wow, these are beautiful. Makes me think of paper lanterns.
What a lovely, simple, beautiful idea! I have some white patterned velum that would be just perfect! Thank you!
What a cleaver idea! Never thought of using foil or wrapping paper before. great craft for kids too-Thanks!
Very 60's & 70's! I saw some on Haight Ashbury in San Fran, way back when. From an old hippie with a young outlook.
I love this idea so much!
I thought 1″ wide was too small, so I made mine 2″, with lengths going from 6″ to 12″. It looks really nice and it has so much possibility in terms or colors and sizes! I will make some tiny one and will try to find bigger construction paper to make really large ones…
thanks for this lovely idea–a friend and i are hosting a small kids holiday crafts workshop at our local farmer's market the next two weekends and these will definitely be on the menu!
thank you so much for this super-simple and stylish tutorial, I will make some of these from wallpaper and wrapping paper I think!
Cheers, Joey x
Really lovely project! I've spent the afternoon making them with my little girl, she loved it.
Great idea! Easy and quick. I'm going to try them with old Christmas cards… Thanks!
I love how simple and effective these are. I saw these back when you posted them in November and not only have i made christmas ones, I'm going to make some to decorate for my mum's 50th birthday! thank you so much for sharing your ingenious and easy art with us!
I just hang them with clear pushpins from the ceiling. The holes are so tiny they're not noticable.
Oh, I remember making these in school! Fond memories…
Great! I will make it!
thanks for this! i did it in my ESL kids' class as a holiday craft. nice results!
I love these! I'm going to have my Girl Scout troop make these at their holiday party next week. Thanks for the tutorial!
oooh – divine!
Thank you for the tutorial! Can't wait to make some – what a lovely antidote to tacky plastic and tinsel….
I did those right this afternoon ! For the first one I took measures (and took the trouble of converting them into centimeters , ha ha !)but for the others , no need and I also used remnants of paper to make tiny ones . I tied them all at different length on a dried branch which I hanged from the ceiling . I love the result . It was fun and fast to make . thanks for sharing this tutorial !
I'm so glad you reminded me! I'm a very old lady now, but used to make these, back in the 40's, out of anything I could think of! Adults can try this with heavy duty aluminum foil, too, and/or add dots of glue and sprinkle some glitter on the glue dots. Lovely!
And try it with scraps of wallpaper and heavy wrapping paper, too! I must do this again!
Fabulous! I can't wait to do this tonight! Am blogging about this project and linking to you, thank you so much for the fabulous idea!
I love it! I can't wait to make these for my vintage Pom-Pom tree!
We made a ton of these for our office party, and they were so cute! Folks couldn't get over the idea of "handmade" ornaments. Thanks!
Totally loved the ornaments.
I used recycled holiday cards, which I used for decorations in my picture window and for gift tags.
love these…made a grouping of ten for our guestroom and hung them at slightly different heights and have got nice compliments…
Thank you so much for this! I am going to hang them all over my house while watching christmas vacations. =)
Made these last night and had so much fun. Thanks for posting the tute. I provided a link on my post to you since this is just too cool. :)
Great idea! I loved!!
They look beautiful..can't wait to make them with my 2 girls :D
Oh, I love this idea!! I might have to do this for the kids rooms – Thank you!
This was the BEST idea, made them for my office at work and everyone loves them (gave you credit of course).
I've mean to do these since it was first posted, finally got around to it. It couldn't be easier and fast to make! I just wish I had a rototrim at home to make the cutting faster!
Is it Scottish?
Oh these ornaments are so wonderful, I have to thank you for posting this!
I had plane tickets to visit my family in Hungary over the holidays (I live in Sweden) but had to reschedule and ended up unprepared for christmas and no time to do something big.
This idea was so simple and right up my alley (I love the retro feeling they give) and gave me an alternative to the regular christmas tree.
Your idea prettied up my home over the holidays! =)
houu very good…I want to do them for my bedroom…..
merhaba! hello! I'm Turkish.
I love love love this.
so adorable. thank you.
I love these! I meant to make them last year but ran out of time.
This year I plan to make them with my niece, something pretty to dress up her bedroom over the holidays! It'd be easy for me to prep the strips before she comes over, and then we'd have plentry of time for the fun of putting them together!
Thanks, thanks, thanks!
i'm planning a holiday cocktail party to celebrate our mid century modern home turning 50 years old and wanted to make modern christmas ornaments for folks to take home…this is PERFECT!
These are super cool! They're also really cute when you make them half sized. =) Thank you!
for xmas
Thanks for sharing this idea! I will have 24 Girl Scouts making this as the decorations for an upcoming Christmas party for underprivilged kids. So simple and graphic alıntı yaptım I TURKİSH
Beautiful! I've included them in my Christmas craft round up :D
Lovely tutorial, I just made almost 20 (some very tiny ones) with a few coloured sheets of paper I had laying around, thanks
Just made six big ornaments for my front window. I might make a couple of small ones to fill up the empty spaces. Thanks for the tutorial!
I have to say… I made these 3 years ago when you first posted them, and they have held up. I bust these bad boys out every year!
I have these hanging all over my house right now! I'm including them in my Friday Favorites!
bence oldukça gzl
tks very much for sharing! Love it! I think I am going to try this weekend! a quick question: how do u fix it to the ceiling easily? I would appreciate very much if u could send me a msg to my email. tks a lot!
Thanks for the tutorial! I made a mobile for my nursery. I hung three of varying sizes on each fishing line and strung 10 of these on an embroidery hoop I had covered in ribbon. Looks fabulous!
That was fantastic.i really really loved it. i am gonna make it for sure. Thanks a lot.
muy bonitos los adornos, saludos desde Guatemala
Those are some beautiful paper ornaments. Is there an easy way that you could modify it so that the ribs poked out in all directions and gave it that 360 degree look?
Excited to make these with my grandkids ~~
There really cool
What great decorations! I am now inspired to give them a go… Thank you
I used these as a measurement and comparative measurement lesson. My class LOVED it!!!
Love these! So sweet!
I love that these popped back up on the front page! I made these 7 years ago (the first time around), with the same colors of Martha Stewart craft paper, and I actually STILL have them.

classic. The vote is 5
so true
its funny and true and so what the drawing is bad its still good
I don't think this deserves to be in the Portal History 2005 collection, as it does NOT stand the test of time. Maybe in 2005 an animation like this was considered funny, but in 2013, it just comes off as the writing of a hack. I can't really imagine the art style looking good even for 2005 - I know comedy flashes don't require top-level art, but this is some of the ugliest artwork I've ever seen. It just doesn't really work on any level.
I looked on your profile and I saw the thumbnails for your 2012 submissions, and it looks like you've improved in your art, which is awesome. If you've got funnier since 2005, that's awesome too. But as for this animation, this is just pure "meh".
I really want to address some of the better parts of the animation, but IMO, there aren't any, really. When your writing amounts to "and what's the dead with toilets, guys? LOL", chances are there won't be any positive factors. If I can get the time I'll check out your newer stuff to see if it's better.
So true and hilarious at the same time!

Thematic Information Extraction: Pattern Recognition Chapter 9 Classification Multispectral classification may be performed using a variety of methods, including: • algorithms based on parametric and nonparametric statistics that use ratio- and interval-scaled data and nonmetric methods that can also incorporate nominal scale data; • the use of supervised or unsupervised classification logic;, • the use of hard or soft (fuzzy) set classification logic to create hard or fuzzy thematic output products; • the use of per-pixel or object-oriented classification logic, and hybrid approaches. Classification • Parametric methods such as maximum likelihood classification and unsupervised clustering assume normally distributed remote sensor data and knowledge about the forms of the underlying class density functions. • Nonparametric methods such as nearest-neighbor classifiers, fuzzy classifiers, and neural networks may be applied to remote sensor data that are not normally distributed and without the assumption that the forms of the underlying densities are known. • Nonmetric methods such as rule-based decision tree classifiers can operate on both real-valued data (e.g., reflectance values from 0 to 100%) and nominal scaled data (e.g., class 1 = forest; class 2 = agriculture). Supervised Classification In a supervised classification, the identity and location of some of the land- cover types (e.g., urban, agriculture, or wetland) are known a priori through a combination of fieldwork, interpretation of aerial photography, map analysis, and personal experience. The analyst attempts to locate specific sites in the remotely sensed data that represent homogeneous examples of these known land-cover types. These areas are commonly referred to as training sites because the spectral characteristics of these known areas are used to train the classification algorithm for eventual land-cover mapping of the remainder of the image. Multivariate statistical parameters (means, standard deviations, covariance matrices, correlation matrices, etc.) are calculated for each training site. Every pixel both within and outside the training sites is then evaluated and assigned to the class of which it has the highest likelihood of being a member Unsupervised Classification In an unsupervised classification, the identities of land-cover types to be specified as classes within a scene are not generally known a priori because ground reference information is lacking or surface features within the scene are not well defined. The computer is required to group pixels with similar spectral characteristics into unique clusters according to some statistically determined criteria. The analyst then re-labels and combines the spectral clusters into information classes. Hard vs. Fuzzy Classification • Supervised and unsupervised classification algorithms typically use hard classification logic to produce a classification map that consists of hard, discrete categories (e.g., forest, agriculture). • Conversely, it is also possible to use fuzzy set classification logic, which takes into account the heterogeneous and imprecise nature of the real world. Per-pixel vs. Object-oriented Classification • In the past, most digital image classification was based on processing the entire scene pixel by pixel. This is commonly referred to as per-pixel classification. • Object-oriented classification techniques allow the analyst to decompose the scene into many relatively homogenous image objects (referred to as patches or segments) using a multi-resolution image segmentation process. The various statistical characteristics of these homogeneous image objects in the scene are then subjected to traditional statistical or fuzzy logic classification. • Object-oriented classification based on image segmentation is often used for the analysis of high-spatial-resolution imagery (e.g., 1 1 m Space Imaging IKONOS and 0.61 0.61 m Digital Globe QuickBird). Land-use and Land-cover Classification Schemes • Land cover refers to the type of material present on the landscape (e.g., water, sand, crops, forest, wetland, human-made materials such as asphalt). • Land use refers to what people do on the land surface (e.g., agriculture, commerce, settlement). Land-use and Land-cover Classification Schemes • Mutually exclusive means that there is no taxonomic overlap (or fuzziness) of any classes (i.e., deciduous forest and evergreen forest are distinct classes). • Exhaustive means that all land-cover classes present in the landscape are accounted for and none have been omitted. * Hierarchical means that sublevel classes (e.g., single-family residential, multiple-family residential) may be hierarchically combined into a higher- level category (e.g., residential) that makes sense. This allows simplified thematic maps to be produced when required. Land-use and Land-cover Classification Schemes It is also important for the analyst to realize that there is a fundamental difference between information classes and spectral classes. * Information classes are those that human beings define. * Spectral classes are those that are inherent in the remote sensor data and must be identified and then labeled by the analyst. Land-use and Land-cover Classification Schemes Certain hard classification schemes can readily incorporate land-use and/or land-cover data obtained by interpreting remotely sensed data, including the: • American Planning Association Land-Based Classification System which is oriented toward detailed land-use classification; • United States Geological Survey Land-Use/Land-Cover Classification System for Use with Remote Sensor Data and its adaptation for the U.S. National Land Cover Dataset and the NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP); • U.S. Department of the Interior Fish & Wildlife Service Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States; • U.S. National Vegetation and Classification System; • International Geosphere-Biosphere Program IGBP Land Cover Classification System modified for the creation of MODIS land-cover products U.S. Geological Survey Land- Use/Land-Cover Classification System Four Levels of the U.S. Geological Survey Land- Use/Land-Cover Classification System for Use with Remote Sensor Data and the type of remotely sensed data typically used to provide the information. Selecting the Optimum Bands for Image Classification: Feature Selection • Once the training statistics have been systematically collected from each band for each class of interest, a judgment must be made to determine the bands (channels) that are most effective in discriminating each class from all others. • This process is commonly called feature selection. The goal is to delete from the analysis the bands that provide redundant spectral information. In this way the dimensionality (i.e., the number of bands to be processed) in the dataset may be reduced. • This minimizes the cost of the digital image classification process (but should not affect the accuracy). Feature selection may involve both statistical and graphical analysis to determine the degree of between-class separability in the remote sensor training data. • Using statistical methods, combinations of bands are normally ranked according to their potential ability to discriminate each class from all others using n bands at a time. Select the Appropriate Classification Algorithm • Various supervised classification algorithms may be used to assign an unknown pixel to one of m possible classes. The choice of a particular classifier or decision rule depends on the nature of the input data and the desired output. Parametric classification algorithms assumes that the observed measurement vectors Xc obtained for each class in each spectral band during the training phase of the supervised classification are Gaussian; that is, they are normally distributed. Nonparametric classification algorithms make no such assumption. • Several widely adopted nonparametric classification algorithms include: • one-dimensional density slicing • parallepiped, • minimum distance, • nearest-neighbor, and • neural network and expert system analysis. • The most widely adopted parametric classification algorithms is the: • maximum likelihood. Unsupervised Classification Unsupervised classification (commonly referred to as clustering) is an effective method of partitioning remote sensor image data in multispectral feature space and extracting land-cover information. Compared to supervised classification, unsupervised classification normally requires only a minimal amount of initial input from the analyst. This is because clustering does not normally require training data. Unsupervised Classification • Unsupervised classification is the process where numerical operations are performed that search for natural groupings of the spectral properties of pixels, as examined in multispectral feature space. • The clustering process results in a classification map consisting of m spectral classes. The analyst then attempts a posteriori (after the fact) to assign or transform the spectral classes into thematic information classes of interest (e.g., forest, agriculture). • This may be difficult. Some spectral clusters may be meaningless because they represent mixed classes of Earth surface materials. The analyst must understand the spectral characteristics of the terrain well enough to be able to label certain clusters as specific information classes. Unsupervised Classification Hundreds of clustering algorithms have been developed. Two examples of conceptually simple but not necessarily efficient clustering algorithms will be used to demonstrate the fundamental logic of unsupervised classification of remote sensor data: • clustering using the Chain Method • clustering using the Iterative Self-Organizing Data Analysis Technique (ISODATA). Clustering Using the Chain Method The Chain Method clustering algorithm operates in a two-pass mode (i.e., it passes through the multispectral dataset two times). Pass #1: The program reads through the dataset and sequentially builds clusters (groups of points in spectral space). A mean vector is then associated with each cluster. Pass #2: A minimum distance to means classification algorithm is applied to the whole dataset on a pixel-by-pixel basis whereby each pixel is assigned to one of the mean vectors created in pass 1. The first pass, therefore, automatically creates the cluster signatures (class mean vectors) to be used by the minimum distance to means classifier. ISODATA Clustering • The Iterative Self-Organizing Data Analysis Technique (ISODATA) represents a comprehensive set of heuristic (rule of thumb) procedures that have been incorporated into an iterative classification algorithm. Many of the steps incorporated into the algorithm are a result of experience gained through experimentation. • The ISODATA algorithm is a modification of the k-means clustering algorithm, which includes a) merging clusters if their separation distance in multispectral feature space is below a user-specified threshold and b) rules for splitting a single cluster into two clusters. ISODATA Clustering • ISODATA is iterative because it makes a large number of passes through the remote sensing dataset until specified results are obtained, instead of just two passes. • ISODATA does not allocate its initial mean vectors based on the analysis of pixels in the first line of data the way the two-pass algorithm does. Rather, an initial arbitrary assignment of all Cmax clusters takes place along an n- dimensional vector that runs between very specific points in feature space. The region in feature space is defined using the mean, µk, and standard deviation, sk, of each band in the analysis. This method of automatically seeding the original Cmax vectors makes sure that the first few lines of data do not bias the creation of clusters. ISODATA Clustering ISODATA is self-organizing because it requires relatively little human input. A sophisticated ISODATA algorithm normally requires the analyst to specify the following criteria: • Cmax: the maximum number of clusters to be identified by the algorithm (e.g., 20 clusters). However, it is not uncommon for fewer to be found in the final classification map after splitting and merging take place. • T: the maximum percentage of pixels whose class values are allowed to be unchanged between iterations. When this number is reached, the ISODATA algorithm terminates. Some datasets may never reach the desired percentage unchanged. If this happens, it is necessary to interrupt processing and edit the parameter. ISODATA Clustering • M: the maximum number of times ISODATA is to classify pixels and recalculate cluster mean vectors. The ISODATA algorithm terminates when this number is reached. • Minimum members in a cluster (%): If a cluster contains less than the minimum percentage of members, it is deleted and the members are assigned to an alternative cluster. This also affects whether a class is going to be split (see maximum standard deviation). The default minimum percentage of members is often set to 0.01. Analog and Digital Image Analysis Tasks Object-oriented Image Segmentation • This need has given rise to the creation of image classification algorithms based on object-oriented image segmentation. The algorithms incorporate both spectral and spatial information in the image segmentation phase. • The result is the creation of image objects defined as individual areas with shape and spectral homogeneity which one may recognize as segments or patches in the landscape. In many instances, carefully extracted image objects can provide a greater number of meaningful features for image classification. • In addition, objects don't have to be derived from just image data but can also be developed from any spatially distributed variable (e.g., elevation, slope, aspect, population density). • Homogeneous image objects are then analyzed using traditional classification algorithms (e.g., nearest-neighbor, minimum distance, maximum likelihood) or knowledge-based approaches and fuzzy classification logic. Object-oriented Image Segmentation • There are many algorithms that can be used to segment an image into relatively homogeneous image objects. Most can be grouped into two classes: • edge-based algorithms, and • area-based algorithms. • Unfortunately, the majority do not incorporate both spectral and spatial information, and very few have been used for remote sensing digital image classification. Object-oriented Image Segmentation One of the most promising approaches to remote sensing image segmentation was developed by Baatz and Schape (2000). The image segmentation involves looking at individual pixel values and their neighbors to compute a (Baatz et. al., 2001): • color criterion (hcolor), and • a shape or spatial criterion (hshape). Object-oriented Image Segmentation • The object-oriented classification of a segmented image is substantially different from performing a per-pixel classification. • First, the analyst is not constrained to using just spectral information. He or she may choose to use a) the mean spectral information in conjunction with b) various shape measures associated with each image object (polygon) in the dataset. • This introduces flexibility and robustness. Once selected, the spectral and spatial attributes of each polygon can be input to a variety of classification algorithms for analysis (e.g., nearest-neighbor, minimum distance, maximum likelihood).

Your first island is free (obviously) and at level 9 your 2nd island is open for you to buy at 75,000 dragoncash. the third island is opened and level 18 for 200,000 dragoncash. i've only gotten up to the third island.
Answer from: Alex gould
You can get a 4th island after the christmas update that costs 125 gems.
Answer from: how231
At level 10 you unlock the second island which 75000 and the third island you unlock at level fifteen which 2500000
Answer from: Carlos
There are six islands in total if you reach level 30 or the highest level yet. i will just tell you how much they cost: first island is free, second island is 75,000, third island is 2,500,000, fourth island is 10,000,000, fifth island is 50,000,000, sixth island is 100,000,000. these are all dragon cash. but there is an island (bonus) that will cost you 125 gems (the epic breeding island/cave), so that means you could have a total of 7 islands if you can buy the epic breeding island/cave. but remember to update your dragonvale game always.
Answer from: Bob
Yeah, what they said. i'm only on the second island atm but i am planning on buying all of the islands, including the bonus one
Answer from: fred

Answer from: Cheese ball

Answer from: AcidNinja13
There is also a gemstone island being the 8th one yet. Gemstone island is the only place you can raise emerald dragons
Answer from: Jacko
I just got a gemstone island yesterday. It was my third island and it cost me 400,000 dragon cash. Got my crystal dragon egg on first try and hopefully get the Lichen dragon tonight so I can hatch an emerald dragon in the next few days.
Answer from: bookworm
In the update, a third island was added at level 15. I had five islands, gem, and EBI when the update came out, so it said that I can buy the third island, but I owned second, fourth, fifth, and sixth. It was funny.
Answer from: Epic G
There is seven normal islands + the gemstone island and the epic breeding island and I have all of them.

Senate OKs farm bill
WASHINGTON — Congress moved a step closer toward completing a sweeping five-year, $500 billion farm law on Monday, with the Senate approving legislation that would cut farm subsidies while expanding crop insurance.
The Senate voted 66-27 in favor of the package, which includes food stamps, rural economic development programs and international food aid. The attention shifts to the House, where the bill could reach the floor for debate as soon as next week.
Food-stamp funding is expected to be a key sticking point.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, confirmed the chamber would begin discussing the farm bill later this month and vowed a "vigorous and open debate."
"If you have ideas on how to make the bill better, bring them forward," Boehner told his colleagues.
Last year, the Senate passed a farm bill by a wide margin in June followed by approval of legislation in the House Agriculture Committee a month later. But GOP leaders in the House were reluctant to call for a vote on either bill because they did not think they had the 218 votes necessary to pass either plan before the November election. Congress failed to pass a bill and instead voted to extend the 2008 farm law until Sept. 30.
The Senate bill passed Monday would collectively reduce overall spending by about $24 billion over 10 years, compared to about $38 billion during the same period in a House measure. Much of the savings would be realized from the consolidation of conservation programs, reductions to the food stamp program and the elimination of subsidies by $17 billion.
Senators looking for further cuts in subsidy payments have been largely unsuccessful.

Cairo: An Egyptian court has licensed a
moderate Islamic party after its application for legal status
was turned down four times by the former Egyptian government.
Abu al-Ila Madi, the founder of Al-Wasat Al-Jadid (the
New Center) said that the Supreme Administrative Court has
licensed the party today after approving its latest appeal.
Madi said the ruling was "a positive fruit of the Jan 25
revolution of the freedom generation."
Three weeks of protests in the heart of Cairo and across
the country forced the country`s long serving president to
step down.
The party was founded in 1996 by activists who split off
from the conservative Muslim Brotherhood and sought to create
a political movement promoting a tolerant version of Islam
with liberal tendencies.

We serve more than 15000 US customers a year. Everything you can put in your basket is in stock and shipped the next working day. It takes our shipments at most five days to arrive at US customs. Normal total transit time is 14 days. January-February is the period where USPS breaks down every year and causes delays (with false tracking status "Origin post is preparing shipment") of up to 10 weeks. We refund 25% to customers who complain about USPS delays to the Postmaster General: Mеgаn J. Brеnnаn, 111 Stοnеgate Drivе, Cаnοnsburg, Pеnnsylvаniа 15317.

9 grams Lufenuron for a 2-week anti-Candida treatment course. Lufenuron is a Chitin (Candida cell wall) Synthesis Inhibitor.
Don't pay the outrageous prices unethical copycats charge for Chinese pesticide-grade Lufenuron ("Candida Cell Wall Suppressor" etc.) - our Lufenuron is tested by Exova labs to be veterinary-grade - the same quality as required for human medicines. Pesticide-grade Lufenuron has impurities such as traces of heavy metals, organic solvents and fluorides. Our Lufenuron is independently tested by a US branch of Exova, a large multinational laboratory specialized in pharmaceutical purity testing. Our Lufenuron conforms to the strict EU standard for veterinarian medicines, which has identical purity requirements as that of human medicines sold in the European Union. Exova does all tests required to satisfy the EU requirements for Lufenuron specifically.You can see those test results here. Note that our Lufenuron passes nine strict, EU-mandated quality tests, certifying it as sufficient quality for the EU market because there are no impurities detected.
Notice about allegations that Lufenuron would be "useless" or "can make you sick":
We sold Lufenuron for nearly eight years, and even though we never advertize the product, we sold very many courses. Enough to make several unethical competitors start selling an inferior Chinese Lufenuron product. Lufenuron is the #1 Candida treatment in the world and it has been like that for years already. Customers come to us by positive recommendations from other customers only. Apart from the occasional dieoff reaction, we never received any reports of negative side effects. Due to Lufenuron's extreme popularity recently, several naturopaths such as Jeff McCombs and Eric Bakker who also sell expensive but ineffectual Candida remedies have seen their profits dwindle and have embarked on a fearmongering campaign against Lufenuron on CureZone and YouTube. Lufenuron has been used for decades in man's best friends (dogs and cats), after having been evaluated to be totally inert in mammals. There have never been complaints, lawsuits or even just concerns. Lufenuron is an inhibitor of Chitin, major component of the fungal cell wall and the exoskeleton of insects and the eggs of parasites. It has been used (from medical literature) to cure chimpanzees in the zoo and million dollar race horses. It has been given to tens of millions of dogs, life-long, worldwide, for decades. It is a cheap and effective treatment for Candida albicans infection, even though it's not a guaranteed, permanent cure. We do not give refunds based on the scare-tactics by our competitors. We do not give refunds based on dieoff effects (which can be severe, in case of serious infection). We are scientists, we back up this product with facts and evidence, we test for purity and provide it to smart people who can distinguish fact from fiction and evidence from scare tactics.
Our Lufenuron comes uncapsulated because Lufenuron is not water soluble and can only be absorbed when thoroughly mixed into food that contains fat. Capsulated Lufenuron is very poorly absorbed because it forms a powdery lump in the GI tract that can't dissolve properly. In order to dissolve into the fat in the food and be absorbed during the digestive process, it needs to be finely dispersed into the entire meal.
Instructions for use are here. Questions you may have are adressed.
Extensive background info is here.
"Intended for veterinary use." The reason we have to sell it as a veterinary medicine is because of FDA rules. 9 grams are sufficient for two Orang-utans weighing 75 kg (165 lbs) or one Gorilla weighing 150 kg (330 lbs).
Lufenuron can also get rid of certain parasites, because certain primitive organisms also use Chitin in their lifecycle.
This customer says Lufenuron killed an intestinal worm:
We do not give email support for this product. The FDA forces us to state that this product is not intended to cure disease.

According to discussions at the WEF in Dubai, democracies and fragile states are in danger of crumbling due to the credit crisis. Some are considering becoming isolationist states. Who can blame them?
November 11, 2008 3:43 by kippreport
Experts gathered at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Dubai 2008 discussed the effect the global credit crisis will have on economies and governments around the world. One of the issues they focused on was how fragile countries and democracies will cope with the pressures of the financial meltdown, and whether they'll survive the pull toward isolationism and corruption.
According to a report written by the WEF, fragile states, which are defined as countries with poor state legitimacy and weak economies, rely heavily on revenues generated by the export of primary materials and remittances from workers living abroad. Unfortunately, the financial crisis, which has reduced remittances and the demand for raw materials, may force such nations to resort to illicit trade: "The current financial crisis is likely to increase the different forms of illicit trade because of the increased pressure to lower prices and the greater desperation of individuals in affected economies," the report said.
It isn't uncommon for crime to flourish when economic strife is widespread. Besides, the harsh reality of a fragile state is that while its government may be struggling to maintain the rule of law, corruption at all levels (including within the government) are likely. But coupled with the global credit crisis, resorting to corruption may be a matter of survival for some.
Fragile states, however, aren't the only ones at risk of deteriorating due to the credit crunch. Democracies may also face pressure to change their open policies. The WEF report states four reasons why democracies are at risk: first, because poor democracies may not survive the financial pressure they are currently facing; second, weak democracies that are facing monetary issues may be overtaken by criminals or the military; third, authoritarian regimes have not been as affected by the crisis as democracies, making them seem more attractive and reasonable; and finally, the crisis has proved that many governments and nations are ill-equipped to deal with trials of the global economy.
In short, the global credit crisis may result in more nations opting for isolationist and protectionist regimes in order to insulate their economies from future global crashes and recessions.
It doesn't bode well for those who promote a 'global village', does it.

The Space
This beautiful and very cozy beach house has 3 double bedrooms, a big patio to overlook the spectacular view of the ocean. And the greenery view of the surrounding area of the house. You will have the best of both view.
The house is located near the best and most beautiful beaches in Bali to surf. Balangan beach, Padang- padang beach and Dreamland beach are just few steps away.
It'll take approximately 20 minutes to go and from the airport by car, and about 30 minutes to Kuta and Seminyak area where you can find lots of restaurant, bars and clubs . Not to mention if you like to dine on the beach with a nice delicious fresh seafood, Jimbaran bay it's only 10 minutes away.
The house also has a fully equipped kitchen if you want to try your culinary skills and just dine in. a very nice bathroom and a big window on the living room. WIFI is there
You are most welcome to stay and enjoy your bali dream vacation by the beach!!
Amazing view and great location. Nearby Padang-padang beach and Uluwatu too. Highly Recommend renting a scooter to explore the area.
Great place, beautiful location, handover and stay very fast and quickly response from the host. The maid came to pick us up as impossible almost to find need to walk 10min on small stairs so do not bring any large heavy bags like we did.. hot water shower is like on a camping what is ok for a short holiday.
Does have a great view in the morning.
Not really easy place when you have kids.
My husband & 8yr daughter stayed at Cozy Beach house in Bingin for 4 nights. We had no problems calling ahead to arrange to meet Nyoman & we brought coffee, milk & snacks with us as there is no supermarket nearby...sure there are a few tricky steps, but nothing unmanageable. Its a brilliant place to stay & we loved it! We are not surfers, but found swimming at low tide in rock pools & close to shore the best way to enjoy the water. Reef shoes are a good idea! Kellys Warung has great food & we also enjoyed fresh bbq seafood on the beach in the evening. The coastline is mesmerising & we found Rosalba's place to be the ideal place to enjoy it from.
Bingin beachの目の前のおうち。
I have been coming to Bali for over ten years and have stayed at most accommodations in Bingin from warungs to luxury villas. We know (normally) what to expect for the price and the longer you book most hosts or hotels issue a discount. Rosalba offered a fair rate for the described property.
This is the first time I had used airbnb for Bingin Beach accomodation. My family of 4 (two kids 8 and 1) booked a total of 23 nights. We were loved the location on the cliff face but found the house incredibly dangerous for toddlers. (Open bay windows straight off the cliff) To Rosalbas defence we did not state the age of our children, we only ticked the 'filter' box in the airbnb search for 'family friendly'
The first week went by and we did get quite fit from walking to the bathroom and kitchen (not enclosed in house).
The second week is when life turned hellish.
Rosalbas house is polished concrete floors. Which is fine in the wet season we were happy to put down a towel to wipe our feet.
UNTIL. The roof started leaking. And by leaking I mean THERE WAS A WATERFALL THROUGH THE UPSTAIRS BEDROOM. ( on to the bed)
We mentioned it to Rosalba who told us to move downstairs until the rain stopped and she could band aid fix the roof. Which we did. EXCEPT. The fix was so poor the same thing happened over and over. (Cue running repairs and us having to move out entirely).
The big bay windows are also rotting off upstairs, one slammed when an unexpected gust of wind picked up and smashed the glass. We told Rosalba and apologised as it was a still day until then.
Rosalba proceeded to board the windows shut on us.
So, it's raining again (we knew it would be this time of year) there's a waterfall through the top room, we move downstairs and wake to water running through the upstairs floorboards down the walls and into the wall sockets. Destroying our Mac.
We moved out that day and asked for a refund to cover the Mac (as travel insurance doesn't cover damage when at a privately owned property)
Rosalba denied Any type of compensation for the computer although admitting in emails she knew the roof was damaged prior to the wet season.
my advice is DONT STAY HERE. Sure it's beautiful, but the house needs urgent repairs and the host is very cold to deal with. (Oh and the wifi is crap) :) happy travels all
You don't go at restaurant, you eat all food and then after you complain because was spoiled and pretend to have the money back.
Ask me to refund you the money of all 3 weeks holiday after you spent all days there and start to have problem with the roof only the last few day was unbelievable wrong, and don't forget that any way you had 3 days refunded
You were unlike for the very bad weather that caused the break in the roof , could not be fix properly as soon that happen, because bingin is a small village and is not so easy to found a good worker.
Any way as you can see, after your unfortunately stay at my house, other people was there and left good review .
So you´ve seen the pictures, liked the place and are now looking at the reviews for confirmation. You´´l find all the info you need in the previous/following comments. All I can say is: GO AHEAD AND BOOK IT; BEST DECISION YOU´LL MAKE.
The view was fantastic. It is more a cozy cliff house than cozy beach house. We'd had a rough day with delayed travel, got lost, and couldn't get ahold of the helper, Nyoman. When I contacted the owner, she practically yelled at me that I should be talking to her maid. Not a good first impression. She did help us reach her maid, who was wonderful. Nyoman helped us get our luggage down the path and stairs in the dark. My parents are in their sixties, and the stairs were a challenge for my mom. This house is great once you get there, but please be aware that it is a long walk down uneven stairs, so active adults are ideal for this stay.
Hi my name is Rosalba, i live and falling in love in bali ever since the first time i came here. And for sure you will too when you come here!!

Constructive proof of Hilbert's theorem on ascending chains
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In a previous note it was shown that if a bound is placed on the degrees of the elements in some basis of an ideal in the polynomial ring over an explicitly given field , then a bound can be (and was) constructed for the length of a strictly ascending chain . This result is now obtained using a strictly finitist argument. A corollary is a finitist version of Hilbert's theorem on ascending chains.

Amy Winehouse Documentary Headed to Cannes
Universal Music and acclaimed documentary filmmaker Asif Kapadia are teaming to bring the story of Amy Winehouse's life and career to the big screen.
Focus Features International, a division within the Universal empire, will shop the high-profile project to foreign buyers at next month's Cannes Film Market.
"This is an incredibly modern, emotional and relevant film that has the power to capture the zeitgeist and shine a light on the world we live in in a way that very few films can," said Kapadia and Gay-Rees.

"Amy was a once-in-a-generation talent who captured everyone's attention; she wrote and sung from the heart, and everyone fell under her spell. But tragically, Amy seemed to fall apart under the relentless media attention, her troubled relationships, her global success and precarious lifestyle. As a society we celebrated her huge success, but then we were quick to judge her failings when it suited us," they added.
Winehouse rose to international fame with her second album, Back to Black, which has sold more than 12 million copies worldwide since its release in 2006. The English artist died in 2011 of alcohol poisoning.
"Asif and James have the remarkable ability to bring a moving and thought-provoking story to life, as evidenced by Senna. We look forward to seeing their vision of Amy Winehouse," Focus International co-president Alison Thompson said.
The untitled Winehouse doc reunites Kapadia with producer James Gay-Rees; they worked together on the 2010 award-winning doc Senna, which recounts the life and death of Brazilian car-racing champion Ayrton Senna.

Rally Round(about): What are we here for? Absolutely everything!
Leigh Ferrara
Monday October 30
SAN FRANCISCO--"We Need Jobs, Healthcare, Education Not More War & Occupation" read the banner leading a march of 1,000 anti-war protesters here on Saturday. The event began with a rally at the U.N. Plaza at noon and was part of a North American call to action organized by Act Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER). There were simultaneous rallies in cities across the United States and Canada, including Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, and Vancouver, British Columbia. Protesters came out to show their resistance to the Iraq War, but those that joined the events on this beautiful sunny day in San Francisco were not all there solely to protest that conflict.
Nor were their numbers very strong. Previous anti-war protests combined ANSWER with a broader, more mainstream coalition, United for Peace and Justice (UFPJ). But on Saturday, the absence of larger organizations could be felt.
The chants and slogans bellowed throughout the march were a clear indication of the myriad reasons why people attended. ANSWER's cries of "No justice, no peace, U.S. out of the Middle East" competed with pro-choice slogans and pro-immigration shouts. Even ANSWER itself had other numerous messages that diluted its own anti-war calls. As the crowd passed by Westfield Shopping Center, a new downtown mall, ANSWER organizers shouted words of support for the pro-union workers of the mall's food market. There were pro-Israel counter-demonstrators responding to those protesting the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. And slogans such as "Si Se Puede" (Yes we can!) from the immigrant marches this past spring were heard as well.
Ben Rozen, an organizer with World Can't Wait, a group that works to "drive out the Bush regime," expressed concern over the divergent messages and splintered factions at the rally. "It is unfortunate that there are separations within the peace movement," Rozen said. "It keeps us back from going as far as we could go." But when I asked Natalie Hrizy, national coordinator for Youth and Student ANSWER, whether the rally's varied groups and agendas would temper the strength of its anti-war focus, she emphasized that the different groups serve to enhance it. "For instance, the lack of resources in the city is directly connected to the resources that are going to Iraq, so we feel that it is necessary to have those discussions," Hrizy said.
Some agreed with Hrizy and found the mélange inspiring. "Most people come here because they are anti-imperialist, not just anti-war," said Joyce, a member of Code Pink who preferred to be identified only by her first name. Others found the fractured message distracting. After the march, Tobias Sugar of Santa Cruz, Calif. lamented the lack of a united chant during the march and hoped there would be speakers to tie everything together.
The muddled message was not the only disappointment. The turnout was not what some had hoped. Brian Hegestad from Daly City, Calif. said he believes mobilizing can effectively stop the Bush administration's actions, but only if there are enough people--many more than were gathered at the U.N. Plaza on Saturday. "This is a joke," Hegestad said of the turnout. "Anyone that is not here is not doing anything about our situation. We need a public display of support." Others echoed his sentiment. People "feel like demonstrating isn't going to make a difference anymore. It bothers me that there aren't more people taking to the streets, because I think that's how change comes about," said Mima Cataldo, a school librarian in Tiburon, Calif. who attended the march. Chris Banks, an active member of Youth and Student ANSWER, feels that "coming out to a march and supporting demonstrations is more significant than casting a ballot for one of two politicians who aren't against the war."
Others think demonstrations are not the most effective use of activists' energy. Jim Haber, a Bay Area-based member of the anti-war group UFPJ's steering committee, thinks there are other activities that need to be done, which means "sometimes we don't come out on a Saturday." And here in the Bay Area, activists' energy is already spread thin. Haber emphasized that, instead of creating new projects, UFPJ supports and promotes of the activities of its member groups such as Code Pink ("women for peace"), Tikkun ("a Jewish magazine, an interfaith movement"), and Jewish Voice for Peace. If there are too many options, "the energy gets diffused," he said.
Many activists at the demonstration felt, like Cataldo, that activists are burned out on marching. Some said ANSWER has isolated many citizens who are against the war in Iraq but do not agree wholeheartedly with the group's broad goal of ending " U.S. occupation everywhere." This is one of the reasons that UFPJ, one of the main anti-war organizing groups in the United States, no longer organizes with ANSWER. In fact, in December of last year, UFPJ officially declared that they would no longer organize with the group on a national level.
The protest was timed just 10 days before the midterm elections. ANSWER's Banks said that the pre-election timing was an explicit part of the demonstration's strategy. He told Campus Progress on the Thursday before the rally that he hoped it would "give people who are opposed to colonization and imperialism in Iraq a chance to vote with their feet." In other words, a chance to cast one's anti-war ballot in the streets--a ballot that Hrizy said cannot be cast in a voting booth on November 8. "You can't vote for Iraq or against Iraq--Democrats are saying they are anti-war, but they voted for the war too."
Regardless of the diluted message and low turnout, many remained hopeful. "We say that there is this reservoir of resistance and anger and frustration--we are trying to harness that in a lot of different ways," Rozen said.
