Prevailing efforts to study the standard formulation of motion and structure recovery have recently been focused on issues of sensitivity and robustness of existing techniques. While many cogent observations have been made and verified experimentally, many statements do not hold in general settings and make a comparison of existing techniques difficult. With an ultimate goal of clarifying these issues, we study the main aspects of motion and structure recovery: the choice of objective function, optimization techniques and sensitivity and robustness issues in the presence of noise.
We clearly reveal the relationship among different objective functions, such as "(normalized) epipolar constraints," "reprojection error" or "triangulation," all of which can be unified in a new "optimal triangulation" procedure. Regardless of various choices of the objective function, the optimization problems all inherit the same unknown parameter space, the so-called "essential manifold." Based on recent developments of optimization techniques on Riemannian manifolds, in particular on Stiefel or Grassmann manifolds, we propose a Riemannian Newton algorithm to solve the motion and structure recovery problem, making use of the natural differential geometric structure of the essential manifold.
We provide a clear account of sensitivity and robustness of the proposed linear and nonlinear optimization techniques and study the analytical and practical equivalence of different objective functions. The geometric characterization of critical points and the simulation results clarify the difference between the effect of bas-relief ambiguity, rotation and translation confounding and other types of local minima. This leads to consistent interpretations of simulation results over a large range of signal-to-noise ratio and variety of configurations.

It can be a constant challenge to keep a 3PL business on track, especially when rail car shipments are derailed. This was clear this past fall and winter when increased demand and weather conditions created serious backlogs, intermodal train delays, storage constraints, and higher rail car premiums and transportation costs for shippers. Although shippers big enough to have some clout with the railroads have expressed frustration with pricing and shipment delays, the hardest-hit shippers are the smaller customers, including 3PLs and their customers who feel railroaded by the railroad.

Have you used a fitness tracker like a FitBit, Jawbone or Pedometer, or an app like RunKeeper, MyFitnessPal or Nike+?
Although the audience may have been confused as to what this question had to do with my presentation, they responded and we found that nearly half of the audience had used one of these fitness tracker devices. These innovative devices have become incredibly popular in the last few years as people try to hold themselves to their goals and track their daily activity.
Much like our audience finds value in measuring their footsteps, our team focuses on identifying and tracking metrics to demonstrate our success and shrink environmental footprints.

The U.S. industrial sector is riding a wave of robust economic growth that began last spring, and all signs point to a continuing boom that could be the greatest in the sector's history. With fourth-quarter data in, our latest research confirms that the industrial sector has now absorbed over 500 million square feet of warehouse space since 2010. With virtually every industrial sector experiencing increased demand—from data processing hubs to distribution space and manufacturing centers—the four quarters of 2014 saw more demand for industrial space than in almost 20 years.
By Kevin Thorpe, Chief Economist
The strong economic close to 2014 wasn't just a fluke. Our fourth quarter office research confirms a robust U.S. economy and office sector. Looking back at the last quarter, a number of economic factors contributed to solid growth in the U.S., including a drop in energy prices, a strong labor market, steady job creation and upward trends in consumer confidence.
There are all kinds of holes: the delicious donut hole, the evasive loophole, the refreshing watering hole, the coveted hole-in-one and, of course, the dreaded pothole. We all have problems – mine is the winter pothole.

Following the global financial crisis, U.S. and international accounting-standards boards defined their new strategy and proposed rule changes as an effort to increase transparency for investors. In theory, they're right. Gone would be the distinction between operating and capital leases. Instead, companies will need to account on balance sheets for every material asset and include asset depreciation on income statements.
Port slowdowns have cascaded through commercial supply chains for months, but things just got serious for sports fans. The beloved bobblehead is the latest victim of West Coast port congestion, with shipments of the wacky wobblers at anchor, forcing franchises around the world of sport to offer fans vouchers instead of the noble nodders. Vouchers instead of bobbleheads? Come on, man.

After a strong fall of robust economic growth, we are rethinking our original prediction of a 3.5% increase in holiday sales. Since making our initial prediction, research findings and reports have revealed a strong U.S. economy, and the shorter-than-normal holiday shopping season no longer seems to pose the threat once feared to retail sales.

WAAAAAY Overdue
by Jay Llanes on Dec.23, 2014, under Life Blog
Wow. It's already been a year since I last blogged about anything. (Sigh). It's not that I don't have anything to blog about. In fact, I have TOO MUCH to blog about that I never had time to put them all in here.
So? What have I been up to? Let's see… I've been playing the standard circuit for the past two years now, starting with Innistrad on to Return to Ravnica, Theros and now, the Khans of Tarkir. I've actually been pretty busy playing. I am still a long way off from even claiming to be "good" at MTG, but I have certainly raised my game a few notches.
Let's just start where it matters: the present.
Currently, the entire metagame is in upheaval. Unlike in RTR where Sphinx's Revelation just rules over the entire playing field, and Theros, where it looked like more of a minor follow through of RTR than an actual block on its own, the Khans of Tarkir shook things up in a lot of wonderful, woeful, what the f*** ways. KTK re-introduced the ever popular Onslaught Fetch Lands, which meant that mana fixing is at prime. The introduction of wedge color factions was magnificently done. Before, playing a wedge-color deck meant simply putting together an opposing color deck which "sorta" worked and never really had the homogeneity of the this new clan system.
KTK is a marvel of both design and development where everything seemed like a well-oiled machine. Everything has its place and everything in its place. The only other block I can ascribe to the same level of detail and functionality was RTR. Each card had a purpose and each ability and spell just bursts with the flavor of its clan.
Enough ass-kissing. Wizards did a great job on the set. 'Nuff Said.
As I was saying, the meta is in upheaval and it is GOOD. There is no deck or clan or ability that's ruling over everything else. The closest cliche I can think of to describe the current meta is: "There is a method behind the madness". When KTK first came out, we had an downpour of all sorts of decks. It's like Christmas every tournament. There's always a new deck to be seen. There's Jeskai control, Jeskai aggro, Jeskai combo, Jeskai tokens, Mardu and Abzan aggro/midrange/control, Sultai reanimator/control/midrange, Green/Black Constellation, Temur monsters, RW Tokens, RG Aggro/monsters, BW warriors, I even saw a BW control. Plus a little hint of Esper Control.
Care to take a guess what deck I built and played when KTK came out? If you said Esper, you'd be wrong.
I made a home brew Sultai Control deck primarily consisting of Sylvan Caryatid, Courser of Kruphix, and my win-con: Ashiok, the Nightmare Weaver. I made a deck where the basic premise is to cast Ashiok, and spend the rest of the game protecting it. Why? Because Ashiok is underrated. To those that know me, I like milling people to death. Ashiok simply presented a new aspect than just milling your opponent… stealing creatures.
Then there was this nifty little card that came out with the Sultai clan: Villainous Wealth. This is like Sphinx's Revelation made passionate love to Control Magic and Villainous Wealth is their little offspring.
The deck was good. I actually won a few FNM's with it simply because it was nothing the other players have ever seen before. No one really plays for Ashiok as a win-con. No one really played Villainous Wealth on the main deck.
It was all good, until I realized that the meta had already evolved and my deck simply wasn't equipped to handle a steady stream of threats from abzan/sultai reanimators, I ran out of answers for Jeskai aggro/tokens. Simply put, I needed a board wipe, which I simply don't have access to.
Much as it saddens me, I had to find a new home for Ashiok. In comes the new Esper control deck. It is NOT on the same power level as RTR's Esper, in fact, far from it. It lacks the raw power provided by Supreme verdict and Sphinx's Revelation. But what it lacked in raw power, it made up for in finesse. With the introduction of Dig Through Time, players don't get the same life gain and card draw, but it does let you look 7 cards deep for roughly 2 blue mana. Dig Through Time is more like a scalpel whereas Sphinx's Revelation is a High Orbit death beam.
So what happened to the Sylvan Caryatids and Coursers? I made a second deck focusing mainly on a mono green devotion shell designed to generate a ton of mana and then use Villainous Wealth to steal around half of your opponent's library.
Where am I at right now? I'm playing as much as I can with both the monogreen devotion and my esper deck in preparation for GP Manila this coming Jan 2-4 at the SM Mall of Asia.
I hope to see you there!
going standard
by Jay Llanes on Aug.20, 2013, under Life Blog
I've recently moved to Singapore on a work transfer and I must say that Magic here is very much alive. I'm seeing young ones and the young ONCE, huddling together during Friday Night Magic's and tournaments. Their format of choice? Standard.
To those who know me, I've always played with whatever card pool I already had since time immemorial. Only adding the few cards that I take notice of. As such, I could only play in Legacy format simply because my cards are old. But not to the point of having Alpha lands and power nines. Just old. Like Tempest, 7th Ed old.
In any case, Ravnica (the original one) gave rise to a whole new outlook in color coordination. The idea of milling your opponent to death never really took off in other sets but Ravnica gave form to the idea and Wizards gave it a name: Dimir. Since Ravnica came out, I've been obsessing over building the ultimate mill deck. (Thus, this website's name). All in all, I've made 7 revisions to my mill deck and none of them worked. Most often because I had the mill spells, but not enough defenses. I stuck counterspells in it but just didn't work out. Even got me a full set of Damnation, but it just wasn't enough. So I put it in stasis.
Since moving to Singapore, I've left most of my card pool behind in the caring hands of my co-writer Eladamri, who's a staunch Legacy player, whose Elf deck I have yet to beat. Moving on, since I left most of my card pool I feel that I'm partly pushed towards playing Standard. Something I've never really felt comfortable doing.
See, much as I credit myself for being an MTG fanatic, I've never really played competitive Magic. Why? It's because honestly, I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I might not be good enough both as a player and as a deck builder. That I might get laughed at. I'm sensitive like that.
Then came Return to Ravnica.
Return to Ravnica meant the return of Dimir. That gave me hope. Hope that perhaps, this time around, I can finally make a working Mill deck that can actually kick ass. However, when RTR first came out, they didn't include Dimir in the first block.
My first attempts at making a Dimir deck were unsuccessful. I tried many permutations of cards that were exclusively Dimir. Then, I realized what I was missing this whole time: Another color. See, the problem with sticking to your guild colors, is that you don't have all the answers to all the threats. I incorporated White into the mix. I've seen how RWU flash decks work and I liked it. I decided simply to replace the Red with Black and instead of dealing direct damage, I just added a few mill spells here and there.
But… I had to find out if what I've been tinkering on actually worked.
I joined my very first FNM.

On the way to Ravnica
by Jay Llanes on Sep.13, 2012, under Life Blog
I have never been more excited about an upcoming expansion than I am with the new one coming this October: RETURN TO RAVNICA.
See, I've played MTG since Tempest through Urza's Destiny block (and what a broken block that was), but nothing really piqued my interest apart from the Slivers. My interest waned after that, but then the Ravnica block came along and for me, it was the first time I really appreciated an alternate win condition with Milling as a viable method.
Not to mention of course that I fell in love with "Glimpse the Unthinkable" (thus, this site's name).
I ask myself what wonders House Dimir holds for me this time around. Will I be enthralled by a new miller card? Is there something that will finally put the final nail in the coffin of my forever evolving Miller deck.
by Jay Llanes on Aug.27, 2012, under Life Blog, MTG Basics
I just came from a mall looking for a set copy of Blood Artist and also some Type 1 cards. Then a guy came up to the counter while I was browsing through the card singles and asked the clerk if he could buy some werewolf cards. The clerk isn't MTG savvy, and so, she couldn't give her the binder the guy needs.
I don't quite recall how the conversation between the two had progressed, except it caught my ear when the guy said he's new to the game. The clerk said he should be buying decks first (Intro decks to be more specific) before he forays into buying singles when he hasn't a clue how to play.
I asked the clerk to show him the binder containing the Innistrad block as it had the most number of werewolves. I was honestly skeptical about the guy because I've never met anyone who was totally new to the game. I mean, I was a newbie too at one point in my life, and back then I had people advising me on how to play, what to play, what colors to use, how to make decks, that kind of stuff.
He asked me what the marker cards were and at that point, my doubts were confirmed, he really was a newbie.
It was at that point that I felt a surge of unexplained happiness. It's because I've always read MaRo (Mark Rosewater) talk about enticing new players to jump in the game and right there, I bore witness to a new planeswalker lighting up his spark.
Off topic, for now.
by Jay Llanes on Jun.21, 2011, under Life Blog
Today isn't a good day for me.
I may need another blog just to let all the steam out. Hehe.
Anyway, my colleague had asked me whether I'd consider joining him on a legacy tourney as a kind of a team member. I'm flattered, because although I love the game with all my heart, I haven't joined any tourney yet. Yeah, sure. I'm the one to write about magic and yet I've never joined a tourney… The way I see it, it's not about hope many games you've won or lost, but how much you love the game itself. But still, I'm seriously considering it.
Especially that I have an objective in mind. To win a tourney using cheap ass cards.

Johnny at heart, Miller by passion.
by Jay Llanes on May.06, 2011, under Life Blog, Magic: The Gathering
Building a mill deck, for me has always been like my quest for the holy grail. You know it's there, but it takes too damn long and too damn hard. There are a lot of things to consider and not many options.
My ultimate goal is to make a swiss knife of mill decks, able to survive against beat downs, weenies, controls, aggro's. But I realized that there's just no such thing as an all in one deck. Just as magic is dynamic, that no one color is superior than the other, there is no deck that is clearly superior than the rest. Of course there are tournament champions, but only because it's the right deck for the existing meta game. Simply put, I haven't given up on my mill deck yet. I just have to learn how to side board properly.
The way things are going, I may just do a pure black mill. The upcoming cards in new phyrexia are the key. Mindcrank and bloodchief ascension can mill out your opponent's entire library as soon as bloodchief ascension has enough counters. A problem that is easily remedied by way of proliferation.
I've always been a johnny at heart, and a miller by passion and it's only now that my dream deck MIGHT become a reality.

I wanted this blog to new about magic. I thought I could pull it off, y' know. I saw life in terms of the 5 colors of magic. I know for a fact I live my life in hues of black and blue. then someone came along and showed me what it meant to live. To become more than just a magic player. She showed me true magic. I found bliss and passion and beauty. Then, like the fool that I am, I let her go. Now each day I live is an attempt to get her back in my life. I hate myself for letting her go. Now I'm paying the price. I've never felt this much pain or loneliness before.

I'm a recent joiner to the android community with my nifty sony ericsson xperia x10 mini pro. I know this has nothing to do with magic but I can't help it because I just turned into a big fan. The phone's okay it's got everything I need in one neat package but more than that, i became a fan of swyping. I'm doing this entire blog just swyping my fingers like there is no tomorrow and I hardly make a mistake.
by Jay Llanes on Aug.31, 2010, under Life Blog
Initially, I would have loved to discuss my passion for milling my opponent to death, but I will have to save it for another time because I am on an hiatus with regard to anything about being a Miller. In the mean time, I have taken it upon myself to focus on another deck I've been working on and off for the past few months: Vampires.
Before I begin, let me issue a statement first. I never was, never will be a Twilight fan. However, I will say this; I am a vampire fan. Well, not a "big" vampire fan, but a fan nonetheless. Vampires appeal to me because they represent the extremes of humanity. On one end, they are animals, predators of the highest order whose thirst for blood is the defining characteristic. On the other end, they appear as the most civil, the most Noble, aristocratic order in all of Magic.
It used to be that Vampires were expensive and rare both as cards and as a creature class. In the recent outing of MTG cards, starting from M10, Zendikar Block, and M11, vampires were given a new lease on life (pun not intended). They were made cheaper, but not in the very least weaker than their older counterparts. This makes them more formidable since they can dish out more damage faster.
Formidable, yes. Invulnerable, no. Vampire decks have to be very, very fast if they are to win the game. The longer the game draws out, the more likely your opponent can neutralize your offense. Hey, vampires were never legendary in terms of their defense. The key is to hit the ground running and keep your opponent off balance. Kill off whatever critter comes between them and your opponent. Capitalize on their ability to either fly, cannibalize each other, or rise from the grave via some other cheap revival spell.
I'll put my Vampire deck components in here later.

Re: Catalina 22 or 25?
The Catalina 25 was near the top of the list for us when we were looking for a bigger boat (first boat was an 18 ft Renken sloop daysailer). Ended up getting an S2 7.9 due to easier trailering (sits lower, lifting daggerboard keel rather than swing or fixed) and its a faster boat, but the Catalina definitely has a nicer interior. There are a couple of Catalina 25s for sale here in Indianapolis that we were considering, both with trailers and outboards for less than $10k asking. Great people at Sailboats Indiana (although these boats aren't owned by them, just acting as a brokerage).

Omg, I'm sorry. :( I really feel for you. It's not exactly the same, but I lost my dad/my mom lost her husband suddenly when I was 13. He went off to work as usual and just died. It was horrible. And we were all just in shock and she couldn't function either. Though I can't imagine it happening at a time like this. :( I don't know what I'd do. Thoughts & prayers are with you. You can always talk to me. Or if you'd like I'm sure you could send my mom an email if you don't have anyone who knows what you're going through. I hope I haven't said anything to make you feel worse, there's not much to say, but we all care and just wish we could help.

Excellent little cosy apartment, smack in the middle of the centre. The central railway station is literally a 2-minute walk. Even though it's so central, it was very quiet and there was little noise.
Communication with the host was excellent, even though i couldn't meet Johannes personally his friend Kia showed me around and was very kind with answering questions.
Maybe the only downside is the staircase to the bed, which is a bit tricky. However, there's also a futon couch downstairs.
I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone travelling to Helsinki and looking for a clean apartment near to everything.
perfect location: just next to the central station but super quiet. felt at home at johannes place!
Johannes is a kind and welcoming host and the location of his cozy and well-decorated flat could not be better! There is a lovely courtyard perfect for reading and socializing, and outside the park is a short walk in one direction and Helsinki's best shopping and dining is a short walk in the other.
The apartment is located right in the center of the city - you can see the side of the Finnish National Theatre from the window and can walk to the central train station in minutes. The apartment building itself has very unique architecture and has a great historic feel. Staying in the apartment provided a unique opportunity to experience actually living in Helsinki vice staying in a hotel as a tourist. Countless restaurants and the sights of Helsinki, including the market square and Esplanadi, are within walking distance. The host is very helpful in providing useful tips and tourist suggestions on Helsinki, in addition to ensuring that the apartment is accommodating to guests. Perhaps the most memorable experience of my stay was "Restaurant Day" in Helsinki. Had the host not provided information about the event, I would have completely missed out on a great day.
The apartment is very central, just next to the rail station. There is also a nice park nearby. We were four friends who stayed for two nights and it worked out very well. I can definitely recommend Johannes's place!
Great location, nice building, secure, bed not very comfortable, could be cleaner, good tips on mirror, flexible (late departure), friendly
Really cool apartment in a central location. It's quite cozy- good for maybe a couple or a few close friends (as long as no one snores). Excellent starting point for exploring Helsinki.
Sweet apartment right in the middle of Helsinki. So convenient! Johannes was a great host even leaving eye masks to help us sleep through the bright Finnish nights. Recommended!
We stayed for 2 nights in Johannes' flat and loved it! The flat is great - beautifully light and it feels really spacious despite being a studio. It's a perfect base for exploring Helsinki as it's right in the centre of the city - and just a 2 minute walk from the train station. Johannes had left us some eye masks (to block out the almost-24 hour Finnish sun!) as well as a big bowl of fruit! He was really helpful with all our travel arrangements. Very highly recommended!
Johannes and his friend stayed in my apartment. They were very kind and lovely. We had a good communication. They left the apartment very clean and tidy. I recommend all the homeowners.
Johannes was a very easy guest, nice and uncomplicated communication.
We would definitely recommend Johannes as a guest!
Johannes is an easy going, quiet, and respectful guest. More importantly, he kept the room clean and tidy. Welcome back.
Ho incrociato Johannes nel suo breve soggiorno napoletano solo un pomeriggio, ma mi è stato sufficiente per coglierne la simpatia! Ospite più che consigliato!
Despite some issues in the beginning, everything went well.

Love story that spans decades
I found this book to be written in great detail with much attention to character development. I felt as though I really got to know each character and could understand the motives behind their actions much better than a typical book. I loved that the characters were very socially conscious and self-aware. They set good examples with their recycling and responsible behavior. The story between the main characters is one that made me kind of wish that I had a long lost love to reconnect with. I do wish that many parts of the story were shortened for comprehension. It was a little hard to keep up with conversations between the characters when their thoughts and interactions are frequently peppered with in-depth descriptions of their actions (such as chess games). I also found many descriptions of the character's actions unnecessary to understand the story and therefore just an extra distraction. All in all, the book was well written with much of the background information needed to understand the story included in the book. I appreciated the endnotes very much. I would love to see more from this author, but in a little more condensed version.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

A Wonderful Journey
This is a believable, romantic story that many people can identify with. The author creates intelligent characters with unique interests and tastes that I found refreshing. This is not your typical, cheap romance novel. Instead, it is a story that explores the possibilities of soul mates, the endurance of true love even when people have grown and changed over the years, and the life altering decisions people make in a realistic, perceptive way that made me want to keep on reading.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
The time span over the decades was handled superbly. The 70's really felt like high school in the 70's, college in the early 80's felt exactly right, and this attention to detail made the story move authentically into present day. The characters grew with the story and I felt transported. I would read this book again, it was a wonderful journey.
Posted April 22, 2010
This is not something I would typically pick up but I won a copy and I am very glad I did. I loved this book. It was very entertaining and insightful. I received the book in the mail wrapped in recycled packaging which was an awesome first impression that actually ties into the story.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
I really enjoyed the author's writing style. I found it very easy to read. The story was very inspiring and well thought out. It would be exciting to see it turned into a movie at some point!
On the surface this seems to be mostly a romance but it really is a lot more. Much of the story is about life-long friendship not just romance. There is a ton of other stuff tied into the characters as well. I really enjoyed a lot of the facts thrown into conversations throughout and thought this added another dimension to the characters. I especially enjoyed the references to reading/books, astronomy, nature vs nurture, and various medical references.
The first section of the story focuses on the main character, Gina's, younger years. I enjoyed this portion of the story as I am still in the age range I feel I can relate. Whatever your age, I would recommend sticking with this portion. It adds depth to the characters and allows you to see them grow.
Overall, I loved the story and would definitely recommend checking it out!
Posted April 22, 2010
Loved the story!
I enjoyed this book because of the well developed characters and the interesting story. I cared what happened to the main characters as though they were real people. I was satisfied with how the story played out and how it ended. It was romantic but not a "romance" novel.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
I have to admit that I had a difficult time with the first part of the book. I had to push myself to read but once I reached the part of the story when the main female character, Gina, gets to medical school I got drawn into the story and didn't want to put the book down. I think my problem with the first part of the book stems from the fact that I am not a patient person. Instead of letting the story develop I was in a hurry to get to the "meat" of the story. In the end it was well worth reading the entire book to get the full story.
I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys fiction, especially stories about relationships.

Kevin my military man
I think everyone, young or old, female or male would enjoy reading about the life of Gina and Kevin. From school to college, the U. S. Armed Forces to parenthood-it's all in this true to life novel with about a 20 year span. You will become best friends with the characters. It will bring memories of being a young adult, slowly maturing and then growing up! Two friends becoming soulmates! The way of conversing was always touching and compassionate along with the truth! You are missing alot if you don't read this book.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.

After 1 year of letting my crab apple wine site, I cracked open a bottle, and it was amazing! Fantastic recipe Yooper!
Not sure if OP still follows this thread but figured I'd ask some questions anyways.
I have never made wine before and figured I'd give this a try. I picked 29 lbs of crap apples from a friends and just pulled the stems out, gave them a wash and threw them in the freezer.
I need to track down the other ingredients mentioned but was wondering about the mashing process. Whats the best way to mash it? I figured I would get a cheese bag and line my 5 gallon pail and have a separate tub in which I can individually press down on the apple then dump it in to the meshed pail. Or will the apples after they are frozen be easy enough to just pour in the meshed bucket and smash away?
How many pounds of apples will a 5 gallon pail hold with the required water? Is there a particular type of wine yeast that I should buy?
I have been looking for a crabapple wine recipe and found one that had me cut up the apples and freeze them before hand. Well the apples started to go brown on me and have some bruising...how will this impact the final wine?
Here is the recipe that I found;http://www.winemakingtalk.com/forum/...le-wine-33445/
I have 60lbs of crabapples cut and frozen as i am going to be doing a 5g regular and a 5g spiced.
Also i think i will be using your recipe using it, good results from what I hear!
Can anyone tell me what the down side of using bruised apples and/or browning apples are?

Compote of Figs in Port
Dessert figs that have become too dry to eat as they are can be excellent made into a compote. This is superb served with ice cream, but failing that, try it with some Greek yoghurt.
Serves 4
|8 oz (225 g) whole dried figs (no soak, or else soaked overnight and drained)
|3 fl oz (75 ml) port
|1 orange
|2 oz (50 g) demerara sugar
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
|There is no list of equipment specified for this recipe.
Use a potato peeler to pare off the coloured part only of the orange zest then, using a sharp knife, cut this into little shreds. After that squeeze out the orange juice, then place the figs, orange juice and zest in a bowl. Add 10 fl oz (275 ml) water, stir everything around, and leave it on one side for 2 hours.
Next pour the contents of the bowl into a saucepan, add the sugar and simmer very gently for 1 hour (without a lid): it should only just simmer, so have a look from time to time to make sure the liquid does not all evaporate. At the end of the cooking time pour the whole lot into a serving bowl and, while it is still hot, stir in the port. Allow the figs to cool completely in this liquid, and chill before arranging them in a glass serving dish.
_This recipe is taken from Delia Smith's Christmas._

How do you keep your seedlings from getting leggy . they are all up but are getting tall instead bushy.
Usually, leggy means they need more light or light of a higher intensity. If they're in seed flats you might try placing them outside during the day (put them in the shade out of direct sunshine for the first week). If they are outside and in seed flats you need to move them to a full sun spot in the garden (check them in the middle of the day to make sure they aren't wilting). If they are in the ground (direct sown) then something is blocking the light. If that something is not moveable then I would just wait, they usually over come the legginess once they start growing real leaves. If they can't get enough light, they may always be leggy and stretched.
At my old garden, which only had 6 hours of full sun in June, my tomatoes and peppers were often head high before they bloomed - there just wasn't enough light no matter how "sunny" it looked to me.

A man's death makes everything certain about him. Of course, secrets may die with him. And of course, a hundred years later somebody looking through some papers may discover a fact which throws a totally different light on his life and of which all the people who attended his funeral were ignorant. Death changes the facts qualitatively but not quantitatively. One does not know more facts about a man because he is dead. But what one already knows hardens and becomes definite. We cannot hope for ambiguities to be clarified, we cannot hope for further change, we cannot hope for more. We are now the protagonists and we have to make up our minds. John Berger

No motion has she now, no force; she neither hears nor sees; rolled around in earth's diurnal course, with rocks, and stones, and trees. William Wordsworth

Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have. James Baldwin

Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all. Seneca the Younger

One who does not know when to die, does not know how to live. John Ruskin
