Amos Bronson Alcott
Amos Bronson Alcott was an American teacher, writer, philosopher, and reformer. As an educator, Alcott pioneered new ways of interacting with young students, focusing on a conversational style, and avoided traditional punishment. He hoped to perfect the human spirit and, to that end, advocated a vegan diet before the term was coined. He was also an abolitionist and an advocate for women's rights.
Born in Connecticut in 1799, Alcott had only minimal formal schooling before attempting a career as a traveling salesman. Worried about how the itinerant life might negatively impact his soul, he turned to teaching. His innovative methods, however, were controversial, and he rarely stayed... more »

Amos Bronson Alcott Poems
WHO nearer Nature's life would truly come Must nearest come to him of whom I speak; He all kinds knew,—the vocal and the dumb; Masterful in genius was he, and unique,
Margaret Fuller
THOU, Sibyl rapt! whose sympathetic soul Infused the myst'ries thy tongue failed to tell; Though from thy lips the marvellous accents fell, And weird wise meanings o'er the senses stole,
Sonnet 16
WHEN I remember with what buoyant heart, Midst war's alarms and woes of civil strife, In youthful eagerness, thou didst depart, At peril of thy safety, peace, and life,
POET of the Pulpit, whose full-chorded lyre Startles the churches from their slumbers late, Discoursing music, mixed with lofty ire At wrangling factions in the restless state,
FREEDOM'S first champion in our fettered land! Nor politician nor base citizen Could gibbet thee, nor silence, nor withstand. Thy trenchant and emancipating pen
ROMANCER, far more coy than that coy sex! Perchance some stroke of magic thee befell, Ere thy baronial keep the Muse did vex, Nor grant deliverance from enchanted spell,
CHANNING! my Mentor whilst my thought was young, And I the votary of fair liberty,— How hung I then upon thy glowing tongue, And thought of love and truth as one with thee!
MISFORTUNE to have lived not knowing thee! 'T were not high living, nor to noblest end, Who, dwelling near, learned not sincerity, Rich friendship's ornament that still doth lend
A Nut Of Eggs
Compressing courage Sordid as a nut Working intelligence Hush Want
Proem III
Not all the brilliant beauties I have seen, Mid the gay splendors of some Southern hall, In jewelled grandeur, or in plainest mien, Did so my fancy and my heart enthral, As doth this noble woman, Nature's queen!
Proem II
Ah! why so brief the visit, short his stay? The acquaintance so surprising, and so sweet, Stolen is my heart, 't is journeying far away, With that shy stranger whom my voice did greet. That hour so fertile of entrancing thought, So rapt the conversation, and so free, My heart lost soundings, tenderly upcaught, Driven by soft sails of love and ecstasy!
Proem IV
The April rains are past, the frosts austere, The flowers are hungering for the genial sun, The snow 's dissolved, the merry birds are here, And rural labors now are well begun.
Long left unwounded by the grisly foe, Who sometime pierces all with fatal shaft, Still on my cheek fresh youth did lively glow, And at his threatening arrow gaily laught; Came then my friendly scholar, and we quaffed
Wendell Phillips
PEOPLE'S ATTORNEY, servant of the Right! Pleader for all shades of the solar ray, Complexions dusky, yellow, red, or white; Who, in thy country's and thy time's despite,

Trooping around him in their several guise,

Then he, like Æsop, man would satirize,
Hold up the image wild to clearest view
Of undiscerning manhood's puzzled eyes,
And mocking say, "Lo! mirrors ...

What Crazy Stunt Will Brett Eldredge Attempt to Celebrate His Latest No. 1?
Brett Eldredge is no doubt a thrill-seeker, especially when he's celebrating No. 1 songs. And he's had three in a row!
Brett Eldredge is no doubt a thrill-seeker, especially when he's celebrating No. 1 songs. And he's had three in a row!
Brett Eldredge has had an enormously successful couple of years, but this new honor takes the cake. The singer-songwriter has been added to the CMA's board of directors.
Sure, they're great onstage and all, but can anyone celebrate Halloween quite like country stars? From sexy to scary, sometimes hilarious and sometimes adorable, these singers know how to pick costumes.
Brett Eldredge sure knows how to celebrate! The singer congratulated himself on a second No. 1 hit with 'Beat of the Music' by going deep and swimming with sharks -- without a cage!
Votes have been tallied, and the top three finalists for 2014 ACM New Artist of the Year have been announced!
Brett Eldredge is one of the hottest new voices in country music. He had the smash debut 'Raymond" a couple years ago and then topped the charts with "Don't Ya" from his debut CD "Bring You Back".
After jumping out of a plane in celebration of his first No. 1 single, 'Don't Ya,' Brett Eldredge feels ready to do anything. So, he's embarking on what most new artists only dream of: A headlining tour.
Some people celebrate with parties. Others celebrate with champagne. Brett Eldredge celebrates by jumping out of a plane -- at least for his first No. 1 hit!
Brett Eldredge isn't terribly shy when it comes to what he likes. When the singer sat down with Taste of Country recently, he revealed his personal opinion of the top three sexiest women in country music. The outcome? He likes blondes ... and brunettes.
Buying a full album from a new artist is something like a trust fall. Typically you've heard one or two songs, leaving nine or 10 question marks. Breathe easy putting down cash for 'Bring You Back,' the debut from Brett Eldredge. The Paris, Ill.-born singer will catch you.
Country newcomer Brett Eldredge is having the time of his life. Not only is he opening for Taylor Swift, one of the most famous and recognizable musicians in the world, but he is also set to release his eagerly-awaited debut album later this summer.
Up-and-coming country star Brett Eldredge has landed a sweet new gig. The singer, whose current single 'Don't Ya' has climbed into the Top 40, will serve as one of the opening acts for Taylor Swift's upcoming Red Tour. He will appear on 19 dates with the pop-country megastar, beginning in Omaha, Neb. on March 13.

General Motors is working hard to boost the number of hybrid and electric models in its lineup. According to Mary Barra, GM's senior vice president of Global Product Development, General Motors expects to have 500,000 vehicles on the road with some form of electrification by 2017, with a focus on plug-in technology. GM's most popular electric model is the Chevy Volt, but GM also offers several hybrid models – and next year the Spark EV will be released.
"The plug-in offers a unique opportunity to change the way people commute," Mary Barra stated. "Plug-based solutions will play a significant role in our technology portfolio going forward."
GM is set to sell more than 50,000 vehicles this year with electrification – between the Volt and eAssist light electrification technology on the Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Malibu. The 2014 Chevrolet Impala also will offer an eAssist model when it debuts next year. "Our commitment to eAssist is unwavering," Barra said. "In fact, our future portfolio calls for eAssist to be on hundreds of thousands of GM vehicles annually by 2017."
GM is also working the new 2014 Cadillac ELR, which will use the same plug-in hybrid technology in the Chevy Volt, but will be wrapped in a much sexier and sportier exterior.

This is awesome, GM, the company that killed the Ev1 program in 1999, plans to have 500,000 electric vehicles on the road by 2017, I'm glad though, since I'm to be trying to work for an automotive company when I'm done with school, I feel all the background I'm getting will dramatically help me get the job.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
This is a logotype using the jos' Fontin Sans, for the Ancient Music Association of Nancy (Association de Musique Ancienne de Nancy) or "A.M.A.N". I've played with the "A" and the "M" of "Ancient" and "Music" to create a kind of old monogram with the Caslon, which is contrasted by the contemporary face of the Fontin Sans.
That's very pleasing to the eye. I like the way the swashes look like musical clefs. Nice work :)
wow, stunning work!
well done!
Beautiful as always!
thank you all.
Beautiful. Very lovely. Great one.
I'm so glad I looked at this, because I then looked at your website and then looked at Jos's website too, neither of which I've seen before. Superb. Thank you.
thank you very much !

You're a Good Man, Gary Carter
Gary Carter, Met, all-star catcher, and good guy, goes to the Hall of Fame.
11:00 PM, Jan 9, 2003 • By DAVID SKINNER
A CHILDHOOD HERO OF MINE, Gary Carter, has been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. And if his canonization proves anything, it's that a person can be great and good at the same time.
Carter was a longtime Montreal Expo, but he entered my consciousness during the 1980s as a New York Met. After years of serious bottom-dwelling doldrums for the ballclub, the '80s Mets exploded as one of the best teams in the league. I remember as a kid getting up early to deliver the newspapers for my Newsday route, only to keep all my subscribers waiting while I devoured the latest news of Doc Gooden's strikeout artistry or Daryl Strawberry's merciless pounding of another home run. With players like Keith Hernandez, a great first baseman and one of toughest hitters in the league, ballpark favorites like Mookie Wilson, and a pitching staff that included not only Gooden, but Bob Ojeda, the cerebral Ron Darling, and the great Sid Fernandez in his prime, the Mets had everything a fan could ask for, including Carter--a great catcher with excellent defensive skills, a helluva throw to second, and a dangerous bat.
As the home plate defender for an always-struggling St. Anastasia's boys team, I took a special interest in Carter's excellence on the field and, especially, his clutch hitting. About half the kids in my league seemed to imitate his idiosyncratic batting stance wherein he held the bat so high above his shoulders he might have been trying to scratch God's armpit.
As good a team as the Mets were in the '80s, they had a few too many bad boys--most famously the drug offenders Strawberry and Gooden, but about half the ballclub was implicated in the party-hardy atmosphere, including manager Davey Johnson and team captain Keith Hernandez. In this self-indulgent milieu, Carter was the straight shooter, the corny, God-loving, clean-living square. On team trips, he rode in the front of the bus and the front of the plane, carrying a Bible with him, while the cool guys drank and smoked and worse in the back.
Another thing that set him apart from the others were his excellent relations with the press. He just loved talking baseball, and was known to answer questions at length. For this he was called a glory hound by irritable teammates. One Mets coach called him "a real rah-rah." But here's how Gary Carter truly differed from some of his teammates: If you had taken away his athletic talent, you'd be left with a prototypical bible-thumping Christian, all in all, a nice guy. If you had taken away the talents of some of his teammates, you'd be left with a few drug-abusing criminals.
Of course, as a baseball fan, I was never particularly concerned with Carter's moral virtues, only his athletic ones. In fact when I learned he was a Bible-thumper, I immediately thought less of him. Not that I stopped being a bit of a rah-rah for his athletic exploits.
Though his being a goody-two-shoes cost him popularity votes in clubhouses, the 11-time all-star was respected on all sides for his ability. During his prime he was the best defensive catcher in baseball. He once set a record for the fewest passed balls in 150 games or more. He was also a three-time Golden Glove winner. His offensive highlights include the 1984 season when he led the National League with 104 RBIs. 1986 was an even better year. During the penant race, he had 13 homers and 34 RBIs in only 27 games. For the season, he had 105 RBIs, which helped the Mets get to the World Series. In Game 4, he hit 2 home runs. In Game 6, he hit a crucial single in the two-out 10th inning rally famous for the Mookie Wilson grounder that rolled like a marble through the legs of Bill Buckner. 1986 was also a great defensive year for him: Four of Carter's pitchers won 15 or more games in 1986.
Things went downhill after 1986. Injuries started to pile up, but Carter stuck around for several years, bouncing through different clubs until he retired in 1991. Although he spent more time as an Expo, he said at a press conference this week he'd never forget his extraordinary five years with the Mets.

Making Old Discolored Grout Look Like New
One question, with attitude: How you like me now, grout?
That's right. Picture me giving one of these (*strikes a talk-to-the-hand pose*) to the grout in our foyer and half bathroom.
As you might recall, for the past six months that we've lived here, it has looked like this.
Over the last half of a year, I gave nearly every method under the sun a shot to make that grout look clean. After repeatedly scrubbing the heck out of it, I knew that it was actually very (very, very) clean… it just was so discolored and stained in certain areas, that no amount of blood, sweat, or tears (I even tried a wire brush to literally sand off the top layer of the grout) could make it look that way.
Some of my attempts included (but weren't limited to):
- various baking soda concoctions
- various vinegar solutions
- copious magic erasers
- specialty grout cleaning floor sprays/potions/scrubs
- bleach pens
- oxegenating cleaners
- Mrs Meyers powdered cleanser + a wire brush
- Barkeeper's Friend + a wire brush
- a borrowed steam mop
- lots and lots of muttered cursing
So I did what most people would do and I gave up and ignored it for another few days (what's a few days after six months of no-dice results?). And then I finally faced facts. The grout either needed to be scraped out and regrouted entirely (which makes for a pretty messy job, especially in the main hallway of our house which connects the entire upstairs to each room downstairs) or it needed to be refinished.
Thankfully a few of you tipped me off to a product you've used with success called Polyblend Grout Renew. Let me just skip to the punchline: it worked, and I wish I had tried it before spending six months scrubbing my mind out.
The cost? A cool $11.95 from Home Depot. Can I get a what what? Note: this might sound like an ad for the stuff, but Grout Renew doesn't know us from Adam – I'm just beyond grateful that it worked.
Although it did take nearly eight hours to apply. But since I had easily spent 25 hours trying various stain lifting methods before resorting to this, eight hours with a bottle of Grout Renew was a small price to pay for VICTORY.
That's right, there were mic drops. There was shoulder dusting. There was a full on pregnant-lady end zone dance.
There were several colors to pick from, but John and I decided on Oyster Gray after admiring similarly toned grout at a neighbor's house during a Christmas party (they had the same foyer tile that we do, but it spanned all the way into their kitchen with sparkling light gray grout that brought tears to my eyes). We actually brought home a darker option too, but it was so close to the stone color – and some of the dark stains in the grout – that we worried it would be a lot of work for grout that still looked kind of muddled and dingy.
Oh and the Grout Renew was low odor and low-VOC, so this pregnant lady could get down with it. I did wear a respirator, along with opening windows, just because I'm into added ventilation and bad Bane impersonations.
Anyway, the first step was to clean the floors thoroughly. I'll pause while you laugh since I had already done that TEN MILLION TIMES. Next it just said to use a toothbrush to apply it into the grout lines and then let it dry for 24 hours. I went with a thin craft brush because I had way more control (read: way less mess on the tile surface) and started in the half-bathroom because I figured I could work my way out of the room and close the door behind me so it could dry.
Even with a small craft brush there were still times when it got on the surface of the tile, and there was a very short window for wiping it off before it set (and then had to be scrubbed with a fingernail, which was a huge pain) so I literally would do one or two cracks at a time and then quickly follow up to smooth both sides of the seam out with a small piece of toilet paper (this would remove any from the surface of the tile as well as make the sides of each seam nice and straight looking).
It was the opposite of fast. But it worked. Slowly I eked my way out from around the toilet and right out the door, which took about an hour and forty five minutes. That was day 1. Note: this stuff looks lighter/more high-contrast before it dries, so even though it looks white here, it dries to be a softer gray color.
Day 2 involved three more hours of line painting and wiping, and I opted to do 50% of the foyer in a strategic way so we could all still walk on the other half of it. In other words, I did half of the hall, half of the area in front of the steps, one of the two closets, and half of the area leading into the office, so we could all still walk on "the dirty grout" sides to get around. Here's a shot to show you how hilarious John is. I said: ok, get creative with this picture so my giant respirator doesn't look weird. I like his version of getting creative – just lop off the whole head area.
The second day was the hardest day by far, just because I was still kind of sore from contorting my pregnant body around in the small half bathroom the day before, and the little knobby parts of each of my ankles were dragging on the tile as I scooted around like a dog with fleas, so there was that. But it was all worth it. Worth it and then some!
Day 3 was another three hour process, but it was the most exciting day because I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. The end of the longest-running house battle that I had ever waged was near. I just worked my way around the foyer doing the other half of those pathways that I had done the day before, and I ducked into that last closet while pausing occasionally to fist pump and work on my
Oscar acceptance speech clean grout speech ("I'd like to thank the academy, and the grout gods who invented this $12 bottle of miracles and unicorns").
Then we just gave that last application the same 24 hour drying period, and made sure nothing got wet for 72 hours (since that was another warning on the bottle) and it seems to be stuck like glue. It's a good deal lighter than the old grout was, which still makes us say "whoa now" when we walk through the hallway, but we think it's just our eyes adjusting, since we loved the lighter grout in our neighbor's hall and kitchen. Maybe after 6 months our brains just can't get over the fact that it finally looks clean!
It has really good five star ratings everywhere we read about it (here are some on Home Depot's site) so I'm crossing my fingers that we'll have the same long-lasting luck with it (I still have about 1/4th of the bottle leftover for touch ups in case we need them down the line). I'll definitely update you guys if anything funky happens, but so far it has been great.
Update: A few people have asked if we plan to seal it, and after hearing from some commenters who've used this and had awesome results with occasional sealing it, we're planning to do the same. Will keep you posted on how it holds up! Also, since a few folks have asked us to add the "way back" before shot, just for fun, here ya go. It's crazy how much bluer the tile looked with the brown stained grout and all that blue trim.
Is anyone else waging war on something stubborn that's taking more than a few attempts? Do you have any secret remedies to share for a house battle that had you stumped?

That is insane the difference it makes!! It looks like a whole new floor. I know it took a looong time but well worth the effort! Kudos!
I thank my lucky stars that I've always enjoyed a good patina on just about every surface in my house (except the kitchen counters). Our grout shall continue having an aged, lived-in look. Of course, we don't have as much as you do.
Anyway, yours looks great! Sparkling clean.
Much, much better! It's like an art project for your floor :) Bet y'all got a big old smile on your face when you walk into your house now!
Yes!!! We used this stuff in our last home's laundry room (http://www.chrislovesjulia.com/2012/10/taking-grout-from-dark-and-dingy-to.html) and wow, what a difference. Glad you went for it!
I definitely marathoned a series on Netflix streaming on my laptop while doing it. But is it weird I love meticulous projects like this? The drastic results are just so motivating.
I'm impressed at all the folks who can multitask while watching TV. As soon as that screen goes on, I lose all focus.
I'd have mainlined podcasts interspersed with music. Occupies the brain, but my eyes are still on task.
Needless to see, that looks amazing. You almost make me wish I had dirty grout so I could see such a transformation. We do have dingy linoleum, so maybe someone out there will suggest an awesome way to fix both your kitchen and mine.
It looks great! Glad you found something that worked! If it holds up, will this be a permanent solution? Or is this a Phase 1 until you really do the kitchen and can have the same floors throughout?
Yes! Awesome! I used this product in our kitchen and second bath and it made a huuuuuuge difference! Glad you decided to give it a try! I went fron wanting to rip out all the tile in my house to being very, very okay with what we had.
My question is this: Does it get dirty again, say if you go with another white or light color, or does the polyblend resist staining?
I just used that product in my bathroom last month and it was a LIFESAVER… and good to note it even holds up well as we get in and out of the wet shower (so you don't have to worry about rainy days messing it up when you come into the house). Although a month in and I am still scratching at the tile with my fingernails because I didn't wipe it up fast enough, lol.
I'm so sad that I didn't know about this product before I sold our last house! I spent 3 years tackling the stained grout like Sherry with 90 different cures, all complete failures. Filing that away in my brain in case that problem ever crosses my path again. 8 hours is nothing compared to the wasted time of scrubbing! Looks great, guys!
I am impressed! Well done! We have the same tile, so I will keep this bottle of magic in mind if ours ever becomes discolored!
I'm curious to see how the Grout Renew holds up over time (like would it chip off eventually?). But for $12, I would be doing a happy dance too! The new grout color has a nice contrast against the tile and ties in well to the wall color in the foyer. And you're planning to keep this tile in place for a while anyway (if not permanently), right?
We're locking down our plan of attack for house projects this year, and trying to do things that are budget-friendly while we save up for a kitchen renovation that we think we'll start next year. We're definitely inspired by what you're doing in your kitchen, even though it's bigger than ours (ours is galley-style, so we have to be very conscious of space-saving layout and storage).
We did the same process to our kitchen floor about 6 months ago (you can see the results here: http://www.thecentsiblelife.com/2013/08/grout-makeover-with-grout-renew/) and it's held up great! My kids drop messy food (like once someone spilled ketchup) on it and it wiped right off with minimal scrubbing.
I don't plan to keep our kitchen floor forever (we're planning to gut it-hopefully in the next year) but it's a great solution even if you end up having to reapply in a year or so. I still have a nearly full bottle even after applying it to our entire kitchen.
Wow… what a huge difference! It looks amazing!
So, the color on the bottle is pretty close to what shows on the grout? It looks awesome and I've been wanting to do this for a while to all three of our bathrooms!
I found the product to be a bit lighter than the color on the bottle so you might go a shade darker.
It looks awesome!! I thought the tile looked cool even w the dingy grout so it's even cooler to me now! Hopefully this will make you want to keep it for the long haul.
Amazing results! This 7 month preggo lady wouldn't have been able to walk after spending so many hours seated on the hard floor! Way to go Sher-dog!
Looks great! I had a feeling doing something like painting was going to be the best option for that. I love the way the tile looks now!
My hubby and I have been fighting with wallpapering the ceiling since New Year's. I think we are going to try it again this weekend. Hopefully with better luck!
Oh, this is so exciting. I have waged a similar war on our bathroom floor tile with little success. I can't wait to try this product. Thanks for the tip!
How clean! Dirty grout always seems to me like something you don't realize is so dirty until you clean it. And it makes a huge difference. I need to get on this at our house.
Fantastic! One of your best DIY improvements to date!
Wow. That is an amazing transformation! I am so impressed by that product. It looks like a whole new floor! I'm so glad you saved that slate. I think it looks beautiful!
Looks fantastic! I love your foyer.
WONDERBAR!!!!!! wOOhoooooo, this looks marvelous!!!!! Congrats on finally finding something that works! I did a similar task once in our basement on an old rock wall that was formerly on the outside but then was on the inside when an addition was added. I finally just painted the concrete out white and sealed the whole wall, rocks and all. Looked S.O. much betta!!! Your foyer now looks super fantastic!!! I bet the old owners would be gobsmacked at the transformation the whole house has taken since ya'll recent arrival!
This looks amazing!! What a difference!
True commitment on your part too.
Question:Do you have to seal this like you do grout to protect it and prevent dirt from setting in it?
I can't wait to try this in our entry way!
Thanks for sharing.
Wow, what a difference! it looks amazing. I love the contrast between the dark tile and the light grout – it makes it look so fresh and airy. Seems like a tedious process but like you said, well worth it.
Looks ah-mazing!! Does this mean the slate can stay? I remember you said you were not sure it was salvageable…. Or are there still
Bad areas we cant see?
I am picturing gorgeous warm wood floors throughout, though, let's be honest Sherry – take a look at my house, we might be obsessed with wood floors.
My parents had a tile floor in just the hallway from the front door all the way to the back of the house. All the rooms that opened up off the hallway (kitchen, dining, fancy sitting room, and family room) had hardwood flooring that ran into the tile floor in the hallway.
The tile was never that pretty, so my mom recently when she was refinishing the hardwood everywhere, had them rip out the tile and just put down matching hardwood in the hallway too.
The point of this to say is that we have discovered that this, while looking perfectly nice, was a COMPLETE downgrade in function.
We really didn't think it through, sadly, but it was really, really, really nice to have some flooring somewhere in your living spaces that is waterproof, and we are frequently a loss now that we don't have that. It's great for leaving muddy/wet things there when you first walk in the door — now we have no where to drop those things without ruining the floor.
When we are cooking, we used to drop spent kitchen towels that needed washing at the bottom of the stairs (to be taken up to the laundry room upstairs the next time someone went up), but now the damp towels can't be left at the bottom anymore because the floor at the base of the stairs isn't tile anymore. The system is ruined!
As kids, I did a number of messy, wet projects on the tile (on newspapers, but still) and left them there to dry — papier mache, water colors, etc. We carved our Halloween pumpkins and got the goopy innards everywhere sitting on the hallway tile. My mom used to spread out newspapers that had been rained on on the tile to dry out.
As pretty as it can be, I'd never recommend have hardwood in your entryway hall anymore. It's just not as practical.
Talk about RESULTS! That's amazing! I can't even believe the transformation! And I would be super excited that *only* took 8 hours too! It looks like a brand new floor. Awesome.
I am THRILLED to see this. Seriously. We moved in a house 3 years ago with the same exact slate floor, dirty grout, despite the fact that the previous owner was a total cleaning fanatic. We have tried everything under the sun (like you did!) to get it clean, to no avail. Ours is sort of like wet concrete looking, but the grout color varies throughout the foyer, so it is obvious that it is dirty. I have left comments in your other posts on the floor, because I've been waiting anxiously to see what you guys would do with the floor. I'm definitely going to try this method. Seems like a good winter project. I am not looking forward to crawling around for hrs, but like you, I've done that in my attempts to clean the grout before, so eh, one more time won't kill me. I wish this product didn't have microban, but oh well. I hope it will be easy to maintain if we do end up doing it.

I use this projector to teach at my tutoring job. I teach a group of 4-6 kids at a time and need something I can carry in my bag. I read that this was the brightest pico projector out right now and could connect to my laptop with VGA so I bought it. I no

AAXA P4 Pico Projector
The AAXA P4 gets points for its portability and features that enhance that portability. Most obviously, its ability to read files from memory, so you don't have to lug along an image source, can make it a lot more portable in practice than a smaller, lighter projector without that feature. The P4 also offers some welcome touches that make it easy to setup. It's a lot easier to focus...

PlayStation Vita
I wanted to get a PS4 for remote play, but now I'm unsure- ps4 board is awful!
- Back To:
- Board List
- Topic List
- Topic Archived
- Page 1 of 2
- Last
There are so many jerks. The XBO board has fanboys and console war stuff, but the people aren't openly mean and offensive.
Are Sony fans just mean and arrogant? Or is it ganefaqs?
The vita board seems nice.
Fractal 304 node, i5 4670k, gtx 770 2gb, 8gb ddr3 1600, 7200rpm 500gb, 128 samsung SSD, no overclock
Probably gamefaqs, lots of people on here are bored and randomly post things they think are comedy gold.
Memento mori
I mainly hang around vita board just because I like handheld gaming a lot more than console. That being said remote play is pretty cool, be better if there were RPGs to remote play.
And don't let others on any board get to you. I shrug them off and continue with my day.
(Seriously you should see people flip out on the pc board when you mention gaming laptop.)
How hilarious .You just set off my trap card . Your death approaches.
Playing: jak HD (vita),atelier totori, dark souls, tomb raider
As far as your question, from what ive been told it works pretty well but you have to get used to either using the front or back touchpad for the L2 R2 L3 R3 buttons since the vita doesnt have them. However in my opinion the vita is worth a lot more than just a ps4 accessory, if you get one look around at the games available for it, i have a very nice collection on mine that i play to death and also mostly got fairly cheap on PSN.
Memento mori
GameFAQs is bad and Sony fanboys are known as the worst. Thankfully Sony fanboys want nothing to do with the Vita anymore so we're nicer here.
The PS4 seems like a good console though and you don't need to use the message board to use the console.
I dunno, ive seen some pretty vicious Xbots out there too, thankfully i dont have either so i can look at them objectively lol. WII U MASTER CONSOLE! lawl
Memento mori
Where the feature currently stands, I don't think you should buy a console just for remote play. If you own both however, then you might find yourself utilizing the feature. It actually even works fully over wifi, which is cool if you're going to be out of your house.
However, even when remote play is working well by remote play standards, the controls are a pain (you make some significant sacrifices) and it's still a bit laggy.
If you like my reviews, recommend them. If you have some suggestions feel free to PM me.
Voelger posted...
The vita board seems nice.
It's kinda weird to hear that considering how pessimistic this board was for so long, but come to think of it, a lot of that pessimism seems to have trickled over to the Wii-U board...
Anyways, I'm sure that's more representative of Gamefaqs' userbase than the PS4 community; it's one of the fastest-selling consoles in history, so there's probably multiple demographics you'll find online. That being said, you might wanna wait until there's more exclusives/a price drop before you purchase a PS4.
Cautiously optimistic about the future of both the Wii-U & Vita.
Its the internet, everyone is irrationally angry here, some just hide it better than others.
Memento mori
I think the Vita board is nice because of how badly the Vita is doing, cutting out the ego that the PS4 board probably has.
Anyways, I'd advise not getting a PS4 unless there is a game out for it you REALLY want that isn't on a device you already own.

LOOKING for: Pork Pie
I used to know a family in Ridegwood, NJ who moved there from Aussie - Brisbane, I think. She made Pork Pie, possibly called Sweet and Sour Pork Pie by some. I have lost the recipe but what I remember is: a lard based crust, 1 to 1-1/2 lb ground pork (I think), canned crushed pineapple, green peppers. I think the recipe called for browinig the pork, but otherwise I'm lost. She may have used some extra pork fat, but again, I just can't recall. Can't find recipes here or Google, etc.
WOW - you're good. If that's not the exact recipe it's a first cousin. My Aussie friends no doubt used a recipe with Chinese origin anyway. How can I thank you - been looking for years. Altho it doesn't say so, unless the ground pork has a fairly high fat content, I think it's important to brown it in pork fat or bacon fat. The 'healthy lean' pork everyone sells today contains too little fat, i.e., no fat for cooking, and less flavor.
Ginger - I made this the other day using a 10" - 11" pie pan, 2-1/2 lb ground pork plus 1/3 lb extra ground pork fat. I made lard pastry. I'd say it was fine, almost the exact taste I remember and wanted to re-create, but even with the added fat, it wasn't as moist as I'd like. That didn't keep me from finishing it off over a few days - I love dishes that you can slice up and nuke for lunch.

Craftsman Garage Door Opener -- Lightning surge
Can anyone confirm that I need to replace the receiver/logic board ... and that the motor is probably OK?
I have two 1/2 hp Craftsman openers (#139.53975SRT1) and both have identical symptoms. Following a lightning storm neither opener will open or close the door. (Other appliances in the house were also damaged by the storm.) Pressing the button on the control console activates the relay on the opener, the opener light turns on, but the motor does operate (not even a humming noise). The amber LED on the opener (near the SRT button) flashes 5 times and repeats. I power cycled the opener and am sure the motor isn't overheated.
I briefly connected a jumper wire between the incoming line voltage (black) and the blue capacitor lead; the motor operated as long as the jumper was connected. Ditto for the red capacitor lead. With the motor disconnected, I measured the resistance between the red and blue leads; it was ~7.4 ohms; the resistance between each colored lead and the white lead was half that. So far, so good. It appears that the motor is good and that the culprit is the logic board.
HOWEVER, I also measured the resistance between each motor lead and the case. There was no continuity from the blue lead to the case, but I measured (only) tens of ohms from the red and white leads to the case. That doesn't seem right. Does that indicate a problem with the motor?
A couple of other (extraneous?) observations: The green LED on the control console is lit, as is the orange LED on the safety sensor transmitter. However, the green LED on the safety sensor receiver is not lit.

Japanese Maple ID
My husband purchased this Japanese maple a few weeks ago at a farmer's market. When we asked what the type was they just kept saying Japanese maple. I think there was a bit of a language barrier. I put photos up of it in my blog: http://emcrorie.blogspot.com/ If anyone can give me more information, I would appreciate it. I want to be sure I am giving it the right care. I am more used to $5 plants from home depot, and sure what to think of this elegant gentleman in my garden :)
Identifying Jm's with 100% accuracy is virtually impossible.. It is hard to tell on the trunk whether it is grafted or not a better picture would help... It is very nice what ever it is ...if it is grafted it looks like a Tamukuyama to me... but there are many similar dissectums although the color looks right. If it is not grafted it is just a seed grown dissectum ... BTW if it is grafted and the person doesn't know what it is.. being puchased from a farmers market I'd bet it was stolen from someone ...and thats why they didn't know the name. A true named cultivar of that size would be several hundred $$ anywhere.. If you paid little for it and it is grafted I'd bet ya it's HOT....David
oh, we paid several hundred for it...that's why I am so nervous about it lol I don't think it was stolen. They have been selling at the farmer's market for years. And they may very well know what it is, they just didn't understand what my husband was asking.
How embarrassing...I went out to take a better photo of the trunk and there stick up out of the dirt was a mostly buried yellow tag. It's says ACER Tamukeyama, Red dissectum, ht 9' Width 12' If it really get's 12 feet wide, I am going to have to find a new home for it!
Ok thats great it is a nice one ... I thought it was a typical farmers market item ... no if it had a tag it likely wasn't stolen that and you paid some $$ for it. Remember..morning sun afternoon shade or better yet afternoon filtered sun... water only when dry DO NOT fertilize this year ...and be careful if you plan to plant out ..may be better to wait til leaf fall in fall cuase it will be hard to get it out of your pot uninjured .....And if you do plant out make sure its not too root bound try to seperate the twisted mess if thats what you find a little cutting won't hurt. and plant at level it's now planted or a bit above ( above soil line).. do not plant lower to prevent trunk /root rot.If you think the tree has been out in sun it's ok to give it some ...if you think it was under shade cloth keep in shade and gradually move out ... NOW GET TO WORK ;>) David
is it okay to leave it in the pot? with it's long branches already touching the ground from the pot..I am worried it will get damaged if I put it in the ground and the branches don't have anywhere to hang. Plus, I can move it into the garage if there is a danger of an ice storm. We don't get much snow here in Charlotte, but we get an ice storm every few years.
OOOPS my bad I assumed you were panning on planting it out...No you can leave it but at some point you will need to take out and check for root boundness ..I guess at that time you can trim up the roots a bit and put back in with proper new medium or find a larger pot (if that is possible ;>))
yes if you planted out some would touch the ground but that is natural for dissectums except for a few upright and semi upright ones ...thats the way they naturally grow ..you can always trim "em up a bit or stake up the "lazy" branches which I did with my Tamu for fun!!...NOT that I am trying to tell you to plant out.. keeping it in a pot is fine I am doing so with most of my new ones for the same reason... this stinkin' freeze. I see the only downside with keeping it in a container is that one is ...well not beautiful ( I think you would agree) and finding a large nice looking one larger than that plain jane one may be hard ...David
Thank you for all your great advice! Yes, I agree that this not the most beautiful pot lol I have looked at other pots in garden centers and haven't found one worthy of my tree yet :) I am going to have to get creative! My sis in law is a potter.. I wonder if I can get her to make me a giant pot. Or maybe I can get my brother, the carpenter, to build me a pretty wood one that I can just put the plain pot inside of.
I have put most of mine in cedar medium and large octagonal planters Menards , walmart etc has 'em ... they look nice and the trees seem to like them ...you may have disemble the planters with time to get that sucker out as they get to big for 'em but they arn't that expensive and look great ... but if your brother could build one to hide the current pot that would be easier ... as I said if you repot and not do a hide-a-pot I'd wait til fall and have it be a family event you will need them it will be a BIG job IMHO!!! David

One of NASA's earliest and perhaps least-known programs enlisted not engineers and astronauts but artists. Since their first commissions in 1963, painters and illustrators have documented America's push beyond earth's atmosphere in hundreds of works, the dominant theme being, of course, magnificent men in shiny machines. In NASA & The Exploration of Space (Stewart, Tabori and Chang, $60), Roger D. Launius and Bertram Ulrich have assembled 175 of these pieces from NASA and National Air and Space Museum collections and, for the first time, published them for all to see. And what an eyeful. Although obviously limited in subject, the artworks display no cramping of styles, which range from the collage-cool of Robert Rauschenberg's Sky Garden (far right) to the sterile homeyness of Norman Rockwell's Astronaut on the Moon (upper left) and the epic-patriotism of Robert McCall's Splashdown.

Diagrammed Machine Innards As Art
by Tech
Like us on Facebook
I thought I had a good eye for recognizing electronics as art, but it's nothing compared to artist/photographer Britney Badger, who has created compositions of disassembled household appliances and photographed them to breathtaking effect.
I was fascinated by what I found inside when I started taking electronics apart when I was younger, so these pieces really appeal to me. The price for an original? Just $50.

Wow, I really like this! As an artist myself, $50 for a piece of art -- especially an original -- seems like quite a bargain. If you're looking for "bargain art" you should look to the mass-produced stuff Urban Outfitters, posters.com, etc. churns out. But it won't be nearly as unique, it'll be lower print quality, 1,000 other people will have your piece, and you won't be helping a starving artist. I also totally get that shelling out $50 for a print isn't on everybody's priority list. :-)

Cute, but not $50 cute.

Mephisto Rush Desert Tan Leather Women's Shoe The moment you slip your foot inside the Mephisto Rush, you'll understand why this is the company's best-selling walking shoe. On its base, the shoe combines the flexibility of natural leather with a virgin latex foam mid-sole to give you the ultimate in comfort and support while you walk. Additionally, the Rush offers another layer of protection with a felt insole, which you can replace as needed to keep your shoe feeling like new. The upper leathers are hand-crafted and designed to allow air to flow through them and strike your foot, making for a much more enjoyable walking experience than with other shoes. Even the undersides of the leathers are built for comfort, as they and the tongue are padded so they rest gently against your foot. The Rush's leather is dyed an attractive black color, but you can still make out the distinct grain of the leather, making the Rush the perfect combination of style and comfort.

" Four years ago I was having knee, leg and foot pain and decided to spend more $$ than I usuallly do and try the Orthaheel brand. I bought a pair of womens Tide sandals in plum and cranberry. I have never worn any other sandal/flip flop since!! they are amazing, I could walk 100 miles in them!
I love how Footwear etc. carries so many great brands to choose from, they are always very helpful.
I went yesterday to Footwear etc. in Ranco Bernardo CA to look for another pair of Orthaheel sandals; needed something a little more dressy. Thanks to the help of Ashley I tried on the Carla II bronze metallic sandal (not my first choice) but she said try them you will like them. Yup I love them, they look great with dresses or shorts and have the same fantastic comfort I'm use to in the Orthaheel brand."

John Mayer Covers Beyonce's 'XO' [VIDEO]
Warning! This video will make you believe the song "XO" is a John Mayer song, and not a Beyonce song. Proceed with caution.
Warning! This video will make you believe the song "XO" is a John Mayer song, and not a Beyonce song. Proceed with caution.
Ice-skating duo Charlie White and Meryl Davis gave a breathtaking performance back in October for the 2013 Hilton Honors Skate America.
Beyonce opened the 2014 Grammys with her sultry, romantic jam 'Drunk in Love.' It was unforgettable. It's also gotten a remix, albeit one that was likely not authorized.
Anna Kendrick is so cute. No, seriously. She is adorbs in that neurotic, "OMG!!," Taylor Swift-like "I can't believe I'm famous" sorta way. She proved it when she relayed how she fangirled upon meeting Beyonce at the Grammys while appearing on 'Conan.'
Taylor Swift was one of the many who loved Beyonce's Grammy-opening performance, but many parents complained via social media that it was too raunchy for their kids to watch.
Beyonce and Jay Z kicked off the 2014 Grammy Awards with a killer performance of their controversial hit, 'Drunk in Love.'
The superstars are coming to this year's 56th annual Grammy Awards -- with newly announced performances by the likes of Beyonce, her husband Jay Z (who is nominated in almost every category), Bruno Mars and many more!
Congrats to Taylor Swift! The 'Sweeter Than Fiction' singer took home the most cash out of any tour in 2013 -- and she was in great company, too.
